I, like many people across the state last night, was unable to watch Friday night's game between the Brewers and Cubs due to it being on WMLW. Those who were able to watch, though, complained quite a bit about the strikezone during the game, and apparently Bob Brenly even noted the "floating" nature of home plate umpire C.B. Bucknor's strikezone.
Bucknor is generally regarded as one of the worst — or at least least-favorite — umpires in the game. In ESPN's poll of MLB players last summer, Bucknor was rated the worst by both AL and NL players. Naturally, any time Bucknor steps behind the plate, people are going to complain.
After looking at the pitch f/x location plots from last night, though, I'm not sure how much of the complaining was warranted. Bucknor did miss a handful of calls with both starting pitchers, but nothing as bad as what Shaun Marcum experienced in his first start in Cincinnati. Take a look for yourself. Plots are from Brooks Baseball's pitch f/x tool.
Judging from the reaction on Twitter last night, the biggest problem most Brewers fans had with Bucknor was in the 9th inning, with Carlos Marmol on the mound. Looking at the plot for Marmol, it looks like Bucknor was generous with a couple of strike calls.
Using Brooks Baseball's tool, you can break down Marmol's appearance at-bat by at-bat. The two called strikes to Mark Kotsay were pretty clearly in the strikezone. The pitch that Carlos Gomez struck out looking on to end the game (located roughly at 1.0, 3.0) was technically a ball as measured by pitch f/x, but it's not an egregious error, especially when Marmol has a reputation of getting those breaks.
Bucknor's strikezone wasn't perfect, but as far as Bucknor appearances go, it's probably not that bad, either. At the very least, the Brewers' problem wasn't an inconsistent strikezone from the umpire — it was poor defense extending a nightmare fourth inning for Randy Wolf, and Wolf getting burned by leaving pitches up in the zone.

4 TNA parties may not join NPC government
By P K Balachandran - COLOMBO
Published: 07th October 2013 07:37 AM
Last Updated: 07th October 2013 07:39 AM
Four of the five parties in the Tamil National Alliance (TNA) may refuse to join the Board of Ministers (BoM) of the Northern Province and leave the administration entirely in the hands of the Ilankai Tamil Arasu Katchi (ITAK), according to Suresh Premachandran, leader of the Eelam Peoples' Revolutionary Liberation Front (EPRLF).
Premachandran told Express on Sunday that the ITAK led by R Sampanthan, M A Sumanthiran and Chief Minister-designate C V Wigneswaran, was insisting that it should get two places in the five-member BoM, apart from the Chief Minister's position. Unlike in the case of the Central government, the number of ministers in a province is fixed by statute, making ministry formation a challenging task.
The ITAK is basing its demand on the basis of the fact that it is the dominant group in the TNA, with 14 out of 30 TNA members in the NPC. Additionally, the TNA had fought the September 21 polls to the NPC under the ITAK's "House" symbol. The ITAK is oldest Lankan Tamil party. But the non-ITAK parties consider its demand to be a sign of greed.
Premachandran also complained that in the distribution of portfolios, the ITAK and the CM-designate were wanting to take most of the important devolved subjects like Finance, Education and Health, leaving for the other parties minor subjects and those which came under the Concurrent List. "We may ultimately decide to forgo all places in the provincial administration and leave it entirely in the hands of the ITAK, while continuing to be in the TNA," the MP said.

Tom Brady mentioned the giant Dwight Freeney mural at the Luke during the press conference today with a measure of relief:
Brady knows the Giants will bring lots of heat with their pass rush, but for now he was more comforted by not having to face a local rival who frequently has put Brady on his back.
"I see Dwight Freeney's(notes) picture up there (on the stadium)," Brady said. "When you come to Indy and don't have to play him, we are very fortunate for that."

Thanks, Pirates, for making me feel like a fan again
My first big-league baseball game was in 1980, in early June right before school let out for the summer.
A group from my Little League team went to Three Rivers Stadium to watch the Pirates play the Phillies.
These were the "We Are Family" Pirates, with Dave Parker, Willie Stargell, Bill Madlock and John Candelaria. And the Phillies, my favorite team, were loaded up, too, with Mike Schmidt, Greg Luzinski, Pete Rose and Steve Carlton.
I remember Rose coming to bat and hearing the scoreboard operators blare "I Never Promised You a Rose Garden" over the P.A. When Gross came up they played "Mr. Yuk is Green ...," the campy jingle from those poison control ads that ran at the time.
The thing I remember most is the feeling of being a fan, sitting in the stands and watching these big, talented players with wide-eyed amazement. Now that I cover sports for a living, those moments are few and far between. There's some truth to the idea of never looking at a hot dog the same way again after you've seen the inside of the sausage factory.
And having been privileged enough to cover three Super Bowls, dozens of Major League Baseball games, the NHL, the NBA, professional golf and college athletics at the highest levels, I've reached the point that all sports writers eventually do.
When people ask which team I root for, I tell them I grew up a fan of the Phillies, Eagles, Flyers and 76ers, but I'm not really a fan anymore. I don't watch the games like a fan, and I don't talk about sports like a fan, which drives some of my friends nuts.
Fans root for teams. I root for games that end before deadline and players and coaches with a great story to tell.
But something unexpected happened this week. I covered the Pirates in the National League wild-card playoff game at PNC Park on Tuesday, the first postseason appearance in 21 years for a tortured franchise that holds the record for the longest stretch of consecutive losing seasons in professional sports history.
Sitting in the press box during introductions, I felt the ballpark rumble from the roar of the big crowd, and again when the Pirates hit a pair of solo home runs in the second inning to take a 2-0 lead over the Cincinnati Reds on their way to a 6-2 victory.
For just a little while, everything seemed new. I felt like a fan again for the first time in a very long time.
At that moment, I easily could have stowed my laptop, walked out into the park, bought a beer and nestled into a seat to make some noise along with everyone else in the place.
It was a cool feeling, and though it quickly passed as my deadline approached, I won't forget it anytime soon.

One of the new cool features of the new Orcas TFS is the Team Build Job, which adds a kind of Continuous Integration to Team Foundation Server.
Jim Lamb, PM of this new feature, just released a Vista Sidebar Gadget that lets you monitor the builds happening on one server.
The screenshot at the right looks pretty familiar to me.
This gadget doesn't have an undocked view with more details about all the projects, but uses the flyout to show more details of a specific project then you click on the project name.
You can look at a preview of the TFS Team Build Monitor Vista Sidebar Gadget on Jim's post.
And if you missed it, you can look at a preview of my CruiseControl.NET Monitor Vista Sidebar Gadget, too.
Thanks to Thomas F. for pointing it out.
Glad I could help ;-) I really like that flyout showing the details of the most recent build.
Yep, is more immediate then dragging the gadget out of the sidebar to see all the details.Something I'll probably add for a post 1.0 version

My Perseptions and Realities Right Now
I'm in the market for a new career / job... you might be the catalyst for me or hold the key ;)Sat, May 31, 2008 - 5:12 PM
I've been with Whole Foods for almost 11 years and I am really ready for a change... yes I'm still looking within Whole Foods but I am equally interested in leaving them for the "right" company.
The "right" company would be one that has anything to do with alternative health, alternative living, alternative products, organics, fair trade, sustainability, eco, green goods, green building, and anything else that falls into those types of catigories. I would like a position that has a regular schedule like a 9am to 5pm and has weekends off.
If you have any leads or would like me to email a resume then please don't hesitate to contact me. You might be the catalyst for me or hold the key ;)
I am thankful for the comunity I am a part of.
I cherish the moments and gestures of care we share.
I can manifest anything alone... Yet we can manifest more powerfully together :)
Thank you for anything and everything!

The new year is likely to bring snow, wind and near-record low temperatures to New Jersey by the time the week ends.
With that comes not only the danger of slippery roads and walkways and injuries clearing snow, but the threat of frostbite and life-threatening hypothermia.
The National Weather Service is now predicting four of more inches of snow in parts of New Jersey and Pennsylvania, with snowfall starting the night of Jan. 1-2.
Rapidly dropping temperatures are expected to follow the night of Jan. 2-3, with subzero wind chills likely north and west of the Route 95 corridor and single-digit wind chills elsewhere.
According to the Weather Service, "strong northwest winds" on Friday could result in "considerable blowing snow."
Brayden Fahey, Hunterdon County Emergency Management Division coordinator, said Tuesday that the "cold is a bigger concern than the snow" this week.
He recommends that anyone who must venture outdoors do so wearing "plenty of layers" and be aware of the signs of hypothermia, frostbite and dehydration. "People think you can only get dehydrated in the summer. That's not true," Fahey said.
He also advises people to take steps to protect their pets and livestock, particularly with the possibility of frozen or burst water lines.
According to the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the body "begins to lose heat faster than it can be produced" in cold temperatures. Prolonged exposure eventually uses up stored energy and "the result is hypothermia, or abnormally low body temperature."
Once that happens, the CDC warns, the brain is affected, making it difficult to "think clearly or move well," particularly dangerous because "a person may not know it is happening and won't be able to do anything about it."
Frostbite is another danger that victims may not realize they have suffered. The CDC explains that it causes a "loss of feeling and color," most commonly happening on the nose, ears, cheeks, chin, fingers or toes.
Areas suffering frostbite may become numb, white or gray, and may have a hardened or waxy feel, and need to be re-warmed carefully.
Fahey also reiterated counsel that residents use seasonal equipment "properly, in accordance with manufacturer's instructions," whether that's a kerosene or electric heater indoors or a snowblower.
Fahey said that the county will continually monitor power outage reports, and has plans in place to open a shelter "immediately" should that occur during the bitter cold spell, a need that emergency coordinators statewide have recognized in the wake of extended power outages following recent major storms in New Jersey.
Before the storm and extreme cold arrive, residents can get information on preparedness from sites such as the CDC and the Hunterdon County Department of Public Safety. Communities statewide offer public "warming spaces" such as libraries.
The Weather Service today said that what will be a coastal storm is expected to hit the region, starting with the snow shortly after New Year's Day ends. The near-record low temperatures are expected the morning of Saturday, Jan. 4.
Friday morning high tides, the service said, bring the risk of "moderate coastal flooding"and icing, particularly along the Raritan Bay and Atlantic coasts of Monmouth and Ocean counties.

Oregon State's very own, Ariko Iso, Head Athletic Football Trainer was in Eastern Oregon for the annual Japanese American Citizen League (JACL) celebration honoring 10 local high school seniors. The event was held at the Four Rivers Cultural Center in the heart of beautiful Ontario on May 1st. The Argus Observer newspaper reported this about the evening;
The keynote speaker was Ariko Iso, the head football trainer at Oregon State University. She gave a very inspirational talk about her life and her journey from Tokyo to OSU, to San Jose State University, to Portland State University, to the Pittsburgh Steelers and back to OSU in 2011. She has been the ONLY female head athletic trainer in the NFL, but that was not her original goal. She wanted to be a trainer in the National Basketball Association (NBA), but she is grateful where her life's work has taken her and she enjoys going to work every day. Ariko says she has been fortunate to have gone to 8 NFL playoff games and 3 Super Bowls. She was never intimidated by super star athletes, since she didn't know who they were as she worked 6 days a week and didn't spend Sundays watching NFL games. One of the coaches told her that everyone's elbows and knees are still just elbows and knees, no matter who's body they are on. She never thought that being Asian or female hindered her employment possibilities since she just wanted to be known as an athletic trainer. She reminded the graduates that you need to love what you are doing, that you take one day at a time, and her motto is, "work hard and play hard". Several of the seniors spoke to Ariko at the end of the evening since many of them are athletes and want to go into health related or physical therapy occupations.
For more information about Oregon State Univesity's Iso, click here and here to hear her story.
Thanks for reading…

Why would you do that. Some of us here eat up to 80-90% fats. Looking at the foods you listed, I would say that it's pretty average in fat.
I just registered for a FitDay account, and entered my typical daily food intake. I consider myself a fairly healthy eater, and have made significant improvements in my diet and supplement regimen in the last 1.5 years. I'm a 33 yo female, who is trying to lose around 50 lbs. To date, despite the high quality and (I believe) reasonable portions of the food I've been eating, fat loss has eluded me. Due to a neuromuscular disease, I can't exercise as I'd like to, although I try to spend at least 2-3 hours per day standing and trying to do as much light exercise as possible.
The FitDay analysis revealed that 66% of my daily calories are coming from fat! Briefly, my typical daily diet consists of approximately
1 oz. raw almonds & raw seeds
5 oz roasted chicken (divided between breakfast & lunch)
1 cup raw veggies (usually cauliflower)
1 apple
2 cups cooked veggies (usually broccoli)
2 oz. roast beef (dinner)
10 g fish oil
10 g coconut oil
8 g lecithin
The last 3 items were recommended (from various online research I have done) in these large doses because I have a severe neuromuscular disorder for which they're supposed to be helpful. However, I guess it's no wonder that I can't seem to lose an ounce of body fat, since the % of my calories from fat is so high.
It looks like I'm going to need to eliminate some of these sources of fat. Any recommendations about which items should go? The fish oil definitely needs to stay. And I'll mention that the nuts and seeds that I eat for breakfast are also fairly non-negotiable, for reasons related to my disability. I can't eat any fruits or veggies before afternoon...
Would simply eliminating, or minimizing, the coconut oil be the way to go? I take it because it's supposed to help the thyroid (and I believe that mine is sluggish), it's good for bone health (a serious concern of mine), and for the other reasons we're all familiar with.
Lecithin is good for the brain & neuromuscular system, which is particularly important to me, and is supposed to be excellent for liver health, which is also a concern of mine.
Not sure what more I can cut out of my diet, and still get all of the nutrients that are beneficial, particularly given my special health challenges. Thanks in advance for any input you have!

Yeah I'm at about 60% fat myself, it's a good thing as long as most of it isn't polyunsaturated. Honestly that looks really good, extremely healthy. If you're stalled usually I would say look out for polyunsaturates but the nuts are only an oz and the meat isn't that much, plus you have the fish oil to counter it. Damnit I'm stumped but I think that what you're eating is very healthy and almost ideal for fat loss. Are you soaking the nuts and seeds? Eating them without soaking can cause some GI inflammation and leptin resistance from lectins and various antinutrients so it's a good practice to start if you aren't.
How about nutrients? Are you taking supplements to make up for things you might be low in like calcium, potassium, magnesium, etc?
Stabbing conventional wisdom in its face.
Anyone who wants to talk nutrition should PM me!
Thanks for your responses.
>> Damnit I'm stumped but I think that what you're eating is very healthy and almost ideal for fat loss.
lol, thanks for the confirmation. I *wish* there were some simple answer to why the weight loss isn't happening. My only remaining hypothesis is that it might be a food allergy; I read the book "The False Fat Diet", which suggests that some people (possibly myself) who eat a healthy diet but can't lose fat, can lose 20-30 lbs (mostly water-weight) in a couple of weeks if they cut out all potentially allergenic foods, and then slowly add them back 1-by-1 to determine what might be causing the problem. I may have to try such an elimination diet, although it's quite demanding. That book did ring true to me, though, as I carry most of my extra weight in my abdominal area, which is supposedly where water-weight accumulates when there is a food allergy... I *did* have a basic food-allergy blood test done in the past, but it was negative for all tested foods.
>> Are you soaking the nuts and seeds? Eating them without soaking can cause some GI inflammation and leptin resistance from lectins and various antinutrients so it's a good practice to start if you aren't.
No, I don't; I'll consider doing so. Thanks for the tip.
>> How about nutrients? Are you taking supplements to make up for things you might be low in like calcium, potassium, magnesium, etc?
I take around 3 dozen supplements every day. I have good reasons for each one, and I've done a lot of research about supplementation, so hopefully there's nothing major that I'm missing. In brief, in addition to the fats listed above, I take a multivitamin, ubiquinol, resveratrol, quercetin, MSM, garlic, cinnamon, cucumin, vinegar caps, WellBetX to lower blood sugar, high doses of all B vitamins, ~10 g vitamin C, ~20,000 IU vitamin D (I'm trying to get my 25OH levels to optimal levels), high-dose vitamin E & selenium and creatine, glycine & hydrolyzed casein for neuromuscular disease, liver cleanser caps, Perfect Food and chlorella, iron complex, high-dose (12.5 mg) iodine, and for bone health, calcium citrate, magnesium, 2 forms of silicon, boron, and high-dose vitamin K. Occasionally I add in some other amino acids, but I tend not to comply with these additions for long periods.

Your ratios should be 70 - 80% of your calories from fat. Increase the coconut oil!!
Primal eating in a nutshell: If you are hungry, eat Primal food until you are satisfied (not stuffed). Then stop. Wait until you're hungry again. Repeat.

>> Your ratios should be 70 - 80% of your calories from fat. Increase the coconut oil!!
Thanks for the advice. I'll consider it! I'm envious of these people I've heard about for whom, after they start taking coconut oil, the "fat just melts off." When is that going to happen for me?!
How many calories is that? It doesn't look like much food at all...
second primalpanda's question.
I do not buy into the whole calories do not matter on this way of eating to be honest, but not eating enough can stall weight loss also. I am also a big proponent of primal carb refeeds ( and high calorie) about twice a month coming from a lot of sweet potatoes, some brown rice. I am not a big fan of fructose due to the fact of how it relates to the liver and stuff. If weight loss stalls i say give those a try. I personally think shocking the system is good once and a while.
When i was all into the bodybuilding WOE i really got into cycling carb diets. Which got me into the low carb way of eating, which got me to MDA!
and oh yea, unless you are eating like 20 grams protein I would not worry about dropping the fat. But your diet does not look low in protein!
I was curious so punched those foods into Fitday and got 1,190 calories. That's not very much at all unless you're very petite. I'd recommend eating more of everything, and upping your coconut oil especially to get the fat to at least 70%. Covering all that broccoli in melted pastured butter wouldn't hurt, either. I'd also add several pastured eggs to your daily diet.
Looks good to me.
"I know what my body needs and what it can handle. There's no better way to achieve my goal than what im doing now. If my regimen leads to my death, be it in six days or six months...I will die fullfiled. The outcome is irrelavent so long as i steer towards my fate. If death is to be my prize, i welcome it with open arms."

Michael Young's new timepiece "Hacker Watch" for o.d.m. is inspired by many of the precision engineering projects his studio has been involved with.

In this case, Michael is a professional watch designer while o.d.m. is a top level watchmaker; Michael has masterfully combined the aesthetics and craftsmanship of fine watches with customerå_åÑÌös highest expectations in mind.
The appearance is based on the application of visual ergonomics by using bold lines from the center to the edge of case that lead the eyes pleasantly allowing the time to be read at a glance, the dial curvature and watch case are near seamless to deliver a premium yet delicate timepiece.

Firefox's Linuxy Hardware Acceleration Problem
Linux and Firefox have long been a winning combination, but recently a snag came up that threw their future into question. Firefox 4's much-anticipated hardware acceleration features were evident in the ninth beta — but not on Linux. "We tried enabling OpenGL on Linux, and discovered that most Linux drivers are so disastrously buggy (think 'crash the X server at the drop of a hat, and paint incorrectly the rest of the time' buggy) that we had to disable it for now," wrote Mozilla developer Boris Zbarsky recently in a comment on the Mozilla Hacks blog.

Motörhead to Make Mayhem at Blossom 7/25
July 8th, 2012 | Published in Events
He was born Ian Fraser Kilmister, but the entire civilized world knows the front man of Motörhead simply as Lemmy.
The long-revered heavy metal icon is also—if we're to believe the subtitle of a documentary released last year about the bassist—49% Motherf@cker, 51% Son-of-a-Bitch.
Like so many others of his time, Lemmy was inspired to pursue music by the Beatles—whom he saw perform live at the Cavern Club at age sixteen. After dabbling in various feel-good bands in the swirling mid-sixties, the mutton-chopped rocker signed on as roadie for Jimi Hendrix and The Nice. He couldn't have wanted for a better internship.
Originally a six-stringer, Lemmy switched to bass for a prolonged stint with space rockers Hawkwind. That eclectic group's experimental, drug-fueled aesthetic helped shape the musician's skills, but his take-no-shit personality didn't mesh well with the acid freaks in the band. Hawkwind relieved him of duty in '75 after an untimely mid-tour drug bust left Lemmy stranded at the Canadian border.
Undeterred, Lemmy founded his own group with guitarist "Fast" Eddie Clarke and drummer "Philthy" Phill Taylor. Blurring the boundaries of hard rock, metal, and punk, Motörhead forged a unique, pile-driving, earsplitting sound at a time when disco ruled the airwaves. Tracks from Overkill, Bomber and Ace of Spades are now considered classics and remain in the band's live set to this day.
Motörhead is still releasing new music. They're also still touring. And they'll be at Blossom Music Center on July 25th when Rockstar Energy Drink's Mayhem Festival slams into Ohio. Also appearing will be Anthrax, Slayer, and Slipknot.
Lemmy participated in a short Q & A before the tour to give folks an idea of where his mind's at these days.
1- What band on the Mayhem Festival are you most interested in seeing, and why?
Slayer – 'cos I haven't seen 'em since we toured with them years ago.
2- Even though you'll only be in each place for a short time, what city on the Mayhem tour are you most looking forward to?
Boise, Idaho – first time for Motorhead!
3- What city in the world do you most like and why?
I like anywhere that likes me!
4- If you could choose anyone in the world to spend an hour in conversation, who would it be?
Rihanna – I could probably spare her two!
5- What Motörhead song are you most proud of?
Orgasmatron / March or Die .
6- Most people may not know that you're an avid reader. What book are you currently reading?
I'm reading "Game Of Thrones" by George R.R. Martin for the 2nd time!
7- You go to record stores sometimes – what music are you next interested in buying?
Music I like!
8- Is Motörhead currently writing new material for the next record, and if so, when can we expect the next release?
Next year – We have about 6 songs so far.

Union workers care
The electrical companies in New Jersey love the people they serve so much they sent non union workers home. Don't worry millions with out power in the cold, and they don't want nonunion help. Remember that when you vote this Tuesday. I know the boys from Alabama, could get the job done and done right. They have plenty experience dealing with hurricanes and the disasters they leave behind.
Don't believe me look it up.

Had to do a little digging, here - but it appears this was in ONE TOWN - where there was concern about the quality of the work that would be done by the volunteers.
While it seems no one writing the articles bothered to ask the workers IN THIS ONE TOWN for commentary before they spewed anti-union vitriol, there were comments under one article indicating that the town was worried that work by unknown entities could cause bigger problems, and they didn't want anyone electrocuted or otherwise injured in Their Town. These comments make it appear it had more to do with the volunteers licensing than anything else.
I think most people are sadly unaware of the history of labor in America - one of the most passionate and violent internal movements ever, a lot of people died for the right to unionize - and those "Those Who Forget History Are Doomed to Repeat It"....
All I've seen in these articles is some shallow, biased writing. Very few details about the actual event in question - maybe two sentences in all, and mostly sensationalism about the plight of TWO WHOLE STATES, as opposed to A SINGLE TOWN.
Isn't the town in New Jersey? Then why is it pertinent in a article that runs 6 sentences, quote aside, that "Things have gotten so bad that in New York City citizens have taken to dumpster diving for food".....this is a town, NOT New York City.
I cry, "Yellow Journalism" - give me an article ABOUT the town and the specifics there, which some people attempted to write in the comments section of another similarly sensational article, and I might concede a point.
Some of the workers were sent to another area, while some "returned home" - if they were so fired up to work, why didn't they go where their work could be used - licensing/experience/insurance problems, perhaps?
Don't forget, down the line, any mistakes these workers make could come back to someone being sued, big-time.

This had nothing to do with shotty repairs or any thing other than they refused to sign a union contract. A union contract to do Free work? The power companies that sent them were paying them, it was a donation. See down in the south we take care of each other. These guys are trained weather chasers in a sense. I'm sure these same crews go out on most of the hurricanes across the south. Probably some of the 1st responders to katrina, to get them back up.
It is not about licenses as some have tried to claim, 1st off only doing the actual hook up do you have to be licensed. Not all Electrical Union Workers are licensed. There are so many more phases to get to before the power goes through. Pulling line is a labor intensive job that does not require a licence. There is a ton of that to do before it can be hooked up. The Labor union way is stand around and #$%$ with the guys pulling and milk it for every dime. It is just another way to show How unions destroy themselves.....
This has nothing to do with safety. Do you really think they (Alabama's power companies) would send incompetent workers to do an extremely dangerous job in dangerous conditions on their dime? I heard audio today of them being called SCABS and told they were steeling from their families? Really They get paid from the good folks in Alabama? How are they stealing? They are not looking to make a buck, only give people what they need, ELECTRICITY. Maybe it is because they have the right to work and the right to be fired too......... That is why they perform and union workers just talk about money while people are out in the cold, with no heat & no food.
Safelite Auto Glass is the worst.....
Profiteering through a National disaster is deemed treason. I think it is high time to start stringing up some of these fat cats like union reps and big oil men who jack the cost of goods during trying times.
Hurricane Sandy is going to cause gasoline prices to rise because the oil refineries in the NorthEast provide the majority of the gasoline Americans burn daily...? Ummm... Didn't we just hear that cock-n-bull story when Katrina ripped through the Gulf...? Well, it is one or the other there big oil, but it cannot be both!
Hang 'em high! Maybe it would slow down their craving for wealth while others are struggling.

Hello again everyone. First thanks for the quick response to my former question and for the pictures! They were great and gave me alot of ideas. My question is this. I remember a form of trench knife or sticker made by british or australian soldiers (not 100% sure) during their campains. I do not know if they used it in WWII, but it was used in the trenches. I remember seeing a picture of one about 30 years ago, and Atlanta Cutlery had replicas made for sale (WHY I DID NOT BUY ON THEN, I DON'T KNOW!). Does anyone know where you can find a picture or a tutorial on how to make them. It would be a very good self defense weapon. I notice that the bayonets and the scabbards are on sale for very cheap prices. I have seen a type of Shank made from a 91/30 bayonet, but it looks ugly. They had the handle wrapped with tennis racket tape. I am not saying it would not work, but I would like to make or purchase something that looks better and will do the job. I aways carry an edge weapon around my home and property. Since we live close (4miles) to the Mexican Border in S.W. Texas, every now and then we get people form Mexico that cross over illegally usually to find work, etc. Sometimes they can be desperate (I do not blame them) for food, water, or a hiding place because they are being chased by the Border Patrol. I have a friend that is a single mom, and her son hear noise in the attic. She looked and there were four men hiding. They told her that they were desperate for food and water. She called the Border Patrol. They came to get them and were given food and water. I was just looking for something to make or buy that would be easy to conceal and do the job. If they used these weapons in the wars, they must be effective.
Thank you for listening and your time!

Building a Government of Laws: Adams and Jefferson 1776-1779
James R. Maxeiner
University of Baltimore - School of Law
August 31, 2013
Legal Doctrines of the Rule of Law and of the Legal State: IUS GENTIUM, 2013
University of Baltimore School of Law Legal Studies Research Paper No. 2013-12
Critics call for rethinking the rule of law. American laws are either too specific or are too readily ignored by judges. The American rule of law, by largely ignoring statute law and focusing on judge-made law and asserting judicial supremacy over statutes, undermines good government. This article contends that the "government of laws, not of men" of John Adams and the complete revision (Revisal) of Virginia laws made by Thomas Jefferson show these two founders thought of law in statute law terms closer to the ideas of a legal state than to the common law rule of law.

I am absolutely DISGUSTED with the service I have received from DPL and Wahanda, who managed by booking. 48 hours before my appointments, I had to contact Wahanda as I had not received one of the appointment confirmations. A Wahanda staff member assured me that the appointment was confirmed but send me a booking confirmation instead of an appointment confirmation e-mail. The following day, another Wahanda staff member contacted me telling me to reschedule my appointment. Needless to say I was confused. I told the staff member I had been told the appointment was conformed and that since I worked shifts, I wished to cancel both appointments. I work shifts and I live 20 miles away, so it makes no sense to come in for a single appointment. I have now received an e-mail from Wahanda stating that a refund will not be processed since the venue, DPL state that I did not contact them with 72 hours notice. Both Wahanda and DPL wash their hands. My booking has been incompetently managed and now this bunch wash their hands and plan on charging me for services they did not render. Do not touch Wahanda or DPL with a barge pole!

Aperture has an advanced book making tool and is actually a full blown layout tool. You can make all sorts of stuff with it. I'm going to show you how it compares to the iPhoto tool and just show you a few little tips. We're not going to walk through the whole process of making a book in Aperture. Actually, that's where you want to go to Aperture Essential Training here in the lynda.com Online Training Library, but I do have some tips to share with you and by way of sort deciding which tool you want to use for the next book that you want to make, I'm going to help you with that, too.
So, the first thing in Aperture, I want to select all the images and then I want to include in the book, so I'm just going to hit Command+A to select the thumbnails. And then, I go up to New and I go to Book, right here and I get the initial decision making interface here. So, it looks a lot different than what we were greeted with in iPhoto. I'm going to give it a name called Sunflowers and make sure this box is selected because that tells Aperture to include the photoes that you've highlighted in the initial layout. Choose your type.
We'll go with Large and I'm going to go with just a straight Picture Book and you get samples of the different types of books that you're considering making here and they have some very nice template. I mean really, some excellent stuff here. If you want more information, about your options and prices, if you click on this, it will take you to a web page actually. It will launch a web page where you can see everything that you need to know about making a book. And that way, you know you're getting absolutely the latest information, too.
It's a smart way of doing it I think. All right, I think we've made our basic choices here. So, then I go to Choose Theme. And Aperture creates a new project. So, the book project is actually within our Sunflowers project container and that's where it will live. Now, we have our iPhoto stuff in here because we actually created a book or the beginning of a book in iPhoto. If I click on that, I'm going to get the message, hey, you started this in iPhoto; you need to finish it in iPhoto.
We're keeping track of it but you can't work on it here. Whereas the book that we started in Aperture will be right here and it will always be right here. Now, this is the same thing goes when you open this library in iPhoto, you can't work on this book there either. So, that's the way that goes. We start out with a title page here and you have your thumbnails all down here, so you can see the content we have available for our book.
You get an overview of the possible contents right here and you have some controls. Now, by default you probably won't see this in your interface. I actually turned that on at the Gear menu here under Layout options and this is one of the tips that I have for you. Go to Gear and select Show Layout Options. It gives you some extra things to work with when you're trying to design your book. So, let's add a photo to our cover right now.
So, I'll just take the shot and you just click and drag it right there and I can give it a title, just like that. Now, you notice--here is my next tip-- you notice that there are two little tabs up here, Edit Content and Edit Layout. So, when I'm in Edit Content mode and I click on this, I can play with the type. If I go to Edit Layout, then I can move the type around. That's an important distinction when you're working with this.
So, Edit Layout allows you to move these elements around, Edit Content is more for deciding what those elements are going to be. So, most of the time you'll be working with the content, but if you want to play with the layout then click on this and you'll have those options available to you. You have Type options available to you, Presets, you have Swatches, for choosing the color and so forth.
And then, down here in the Gear menu, you have all sorts of options in terms of working with page numbers, for example. You can make it Automatic, Always; you can turn them Off altogether, Master Pages, Photo Box, and Aspect Ratio. So, you can see here are all the details. So, if you really want to get in to the nitty-gritty of designing a book to a set of specifications that you either have been given or that you have in mind then, I think this is the tool that you want to use.
You can open your library in either iPhoto or Aperture, as we're all aware of right now, but you have the option of saying, "Hey, I just want to get a really nice book. I want to do it quickly and I want it to show up in my mailbox in a week." And that might be when you choose iPhoto to make your book, because you can really create it quickly. If you want to get into the details of making your book then, this is an excellent tool that has a lot of power. Again, Aperture Essential Training will walk you through more of the details, but I think you have -- I'm hoping you have enough information right now to make the right decision for your next book making project.
In this course, photographer, author, and teacher Derrick Story shows key strategies for employing both iPhoto and Aperture in a digital photography workflow. The course begins with a look at the unified photo library format and managing your library with both applications.
Next, the course examines the professional-level image editing features in Aperture and details strategies for sharing photos through slideshows and print projects, guiding you to the best application for the job at hand. It concludes with lessons on exporting photos using Aperture, managing an iCloud Photo Stream, and backing up your library.
- Sharing libraries
- Importing and exporting photos
- Organizing your library
- Editing images
- Building slideshows
- Creating prints, cards, books, and calendars
- Archiving and back up your library

text: Strapless necklines used to be de rigueur for brides-to-be. But in this modern age of brides wearing two dresses, personal style dictating wedding dress choice, and cutting edge designers inspiring new bridal trends all the time, you're not married (pun intended) to a strapless neckline. Depending on your height, shape and favorite assets, you probably already have a 'most-flattering' neckline in mind. I'm tall, athletic but curvy too, and I've found that strapless necklines don't really do me justice. But... I also can't pinpoint which neckline works best for me. If you have a similar problem, OneWed is here to help! Check out nine different wedding dress necklines and what they can do for you! • Bateau: elongates the neck, balances narrow shoulders and smaller chests • High neck: elongates the neck, but not ideal for busty brides • Square: draws eyes up, elongates the neck • V-neck: lengthens the neck, offers a streamlining effect • Sweetheart: enhances curves, creates the illusion of curves (perfect for brides with boyish frames) • Halter: draws eyes inward and away from shoulders (perfect for athletic brides with broader shoulders) • Off-the-shoulder: balances wider hips, shows skin in a tasteful way • One-shoulder: compliments brides with small-to-medium sized busts • Spaghetti straps: flatters narrow shoulders and slender frames Has your vision of the perfect neckline changed? What neckline will you wear down the white aisle?

Marlon Humphrey is one of the premier prospects in the country, as the cornerback is an elite 5-star recruit. At 6'1" and 175 pounds, the Alabama native has a long frame for a corner, great athleticism and quickness.
Humphrey also has terrific instincts, awareness and anticipation skills. He has every offer a high school football player could ever want, but has whittled his list down to several finalists, according to Kipp Adams of 247Sports. At this stage of Humphrey's recruitment, it's time for each of his final schools to start making their last sales pitches to lure him to sign with their program.
Family ties, a history of winning and the NFL are parts of one team's sales pitch. Another team will center its message around early playing time, while the thought of blazing his own path will be provoked by an ACC powerhouse.
Player evaluations are based on review of tape at Scout.com, Rivals, 247Sports and ESPNU.

What is in this article?:
- This may be the year to sell more wheat at harvest
- Tight corn stocks influencing market
• You may want to sell 50 percent at harvest and the remainder in one-fourth increments between August and January.
More About:
Tight corn stocks influencing market
Market information indicates that tight corn stocks resulted in wheat prices being 80 cents to $1 above what they would have been with an adequate supply of corn. With a predicted 14 billion bushel crop and with 2013/14 U.S. corn ending stocks predicted to increase from 759 million bushels to 2.0 billion bushels, feed demand for wheat will decline.
The result will be relatively lower wheat prices. Rain-delayed corn planting will delay the corn harvest. It may be September before the wheat price impact from tight corn stocks will completely disappear.
World wheat ending stocks for the 2013/14 wheat marketing year are projected to increase 3.4 percent and remain below the five-year average. Wheat ending stocks for the U.S. are projected to decline about 8 percent and remain below average.
Below-average wheat stocks should result in above-average wheat prices. The five-year average annual Oklahoma and Texas Panhandle wheat price is about $6.37. Wheat prices can decline from the current $7.25 and still be above average.
There is no market indication on which direction wheat prices will go. What the market does know is that prices will change and that the change can be dramatic. What each producer must decide is which will hurt worse: "Sell now and not have the opportunity to receive a higher price," or "Not sell now and have to receive a lower price."
Dollar cost averaging (selling across time) tends to work relatively well. But when prices are above average the odds favor selling a higher percentage than normal.

Guest Reviews
Overall Experience
Needs Updating
September 29, 2016
We stayed 2 nights at this hotel
Pros- friendly front desk staff, comfortable bed, kitchen supplies, DVD's , games available, inexpensive pantry
Cons- no breakfast provided, room, especially bathroom needs updating
Rooms need some TLC
September 28, 2016
Our room needed some TLC. The chair was beat up and the carpeting was stained ( needed to be replaced). The room smelled like someone just cooked a smelly fish in it. The hotel, I am sure was very nice 10 years ago, but has seen better days.
On a positive note, the staff was friendly and very helpful and the lobby was in good shape. If you are looking for a decent hotel at a good price, this property would fit the bill.
Suggestions- The hotel just needs some cosmetic updates.
No Ice Machine
September 28, 2016
Guests like to fill road trip coolers. Relying on in-room ice maker for this is silly.
Loved it
September 21, 2016
Rooms were clean and comfortable. Had everything you needed including stove, full fridge, microwave, cookware, and utensils. All you needed to bring is food. Also they had an indoor pool and hot tub that was open till 11pm. They had dvds that you can rent for free and board games. The laundry room was also free to guests. A great overall value. Great service. I would stay here again.
