Train busy promoting 'Bulletproof Picasso'
Train, per usual, is scheduling a blitz of TV stops to get the word out about "Bulletproof Picasso," their seventh studio album.
Band leader Pat Monahan said Train will appear on "The Today Show," "Good Morning America," "The Meredith Viera Show" and "America's Got Talent."
Dates were still being confirmed at press time, but the band's first stop on its promo blitz tour is just a day away. Train will perform live on shopping channel QVC on Friday at 5 p.m. The hourlong broadcast will showcase songs from the new album.
Naturally, viewers will get a chance to pre-order the album before its Sept. 16 release. But QVC is also offering fans an exclusive to entice them into buying early. Those who pre-order "Bulletproof Picasso" also receive a bonus CD, "Train: Live in San Francisco."
The latter release, available only through QVC, will include "Drive By," "Calling All Angels," "Save Me San Francisco," "Hey, Soul Sister" and "Drops of Jupiter."
QVC lists a price of $18.50 for the new CD and the bonus disc. Orders will be accepted Friday at www.qvc.com and by phone at (800) 345-1515.

Audi rearranges a few options for the 2015 Q7, and adds two new exterior styling packages. A new Offroad Style Plus package gives the Q7 a more off-road-ready look, while the Sporty Style Plus package does the opposite, emphasizing the Q7's sporty driving characteristics.
Changes for the 2014 Audi Q7 are minor. All models now come standard with Xenon Plus headlights, while the Premium Plus models gain Audi's Advance Key keyless entry and push-button start.
The turbodiesel engine in the Audi Q7 TDI is new for 2013. It's still a 3.0-liter V6 but makes 15 more horsepower (now 240), weighs 55 pounds less than the previous engine and yields better EPA fuel-economy ratings of 19/28. There are also some new infotainment system features this year.
The base 3.0T gasoline engine gains an extra eight horsepower, bringing the non-S-Line-Package-equipped models to a total of 280 horsepower.
Having received a mild exterior freshening in 2010, this year's changes are highlighted by two versions of the 3.0-liter V6 engine (272 horsepower in Premium and Premium Plus, 333 horsepower in S Line Prestige) and the addition of an 8-speed Tiptronic automatic. This, along with a few equipment and cosmetic tweaks, sums up the changes to an aging platform.
The 2015 Audi Q7 is a handsome, poised and polished 7-passenger luxury SUV. It not only delivers when it comes to pampering passengers and impressing the neighbors, its lineup of three engines gives everyone an option, coupled with a taut and adjustable suspension that makes this big SUV fun to drive. You can choose between two different supercharged V6 engines, or opt instead for the turbocharged V6 diesel for excellent fuel economy. Audi's industry-leading quattro all-wheel-drive system is standard on all Q7 models. The sleek styling is subtle from most angles, and even the oversized grille doesn't seem so shocking these days. Unfortunately, the exterior styling hides an interior short on 3rd-row and cargo space.

Alzheimer's Disease- Quick Facts
- Alzheimer's disease diminishes the memory power and thinking pattern in an individual thus acting as an obstacle in executing their day-to-day chores.
- Considered to be the most frequently reported form of Dementia, the number of people affected of Alzheimer stands at 5.1 million.
- People who are advancing in age are highly vulnerable to be affected of Alzheimer's disease.
What causes Alzheimer's disease?
Alzheimer's specialists at alzheimerott.com confess that the medical world hasn't discovered the primary cause that leads to the development of this disease. Several researches performed on Alzheimer's affected patients have led to the discovery of excessive deposits of certain proteins in the brain areas. The consequence of which, the neurons which were once healthy in their communication process exhibit signs of tardiness in their functioning, subsequently vanishing from the scene. When the functions of neurons come to a grinding halt, the brain loses its ability to form new memories and the thinking process is affected invariably. In fact, it is memory formation that first gets impacted of Alzheimer's disease.
How to diagnose Alzheimer's disease?
The symptoms associated with AD can only be observed when it becomes severe. It is generally perceived that the brain gets impacted as early as 10 to 20 years before the neurodegenerative disorder is identified. With advanced medical diagnostic technology, the onset of dementia can be identified through clinical, pathological, neuropsychological tests. These tests primarily focus on the causes of worsening memory and other cognitive losses that forbids a person from executing the day-to-day activities.
Alzheimerott.com, is spearheading a research initiative with an aim to figure out a superior diagnostic mechanism that will enable physicians to identify AD symptoms at the preliminary stage itself. It should also be noted that multitude of R & D projects are executed in the recent past in the field of neurological science. Individuals suspected of Alzheimer's disease are subjected to physical examination, and analysis of neurological functioning in their brain. If further tests are warranted, the physician may prescribe pathology and brain scans. In every visit, the physician will assess intellectual functioning including memory, behavioral and cognitive function. Early diagnosis of Alzheimer is the only way to prevent the worsening of the disease and memory loss.
Symptoms of Alzheimer's disease
Alzheimer's disease causes a progressive loss in the memory, cognitive and intellectual capabilities. Though majority of the population affected of AD is above 65 years of age, there are reasonable number of middle-aged and young-aged people being affected of this medical disorder too. The short term memory loss that every Alzheimer's affected individual encounter makes it difficult for them to handle the daily mundane routine like bathing, dressing, eating, talking, etc.
It is a common sight to observe in them that they forget regular events such as returning back to their homes and such trivial things. Over a period of time they lose their understanding, reasoning ability and find it hard to articulate an effective response. Though their eyesight is sharp, they can't recognize familiar faces and react accordingly. The worst symptom is that they find it difficult in remembering the most common and frequently uttered words that restrains them even from reading, writing and communicating.
Remedial measures of Alzheimer's symptoms
Though there is no known cure for Alzheimer's disease and to reverse the damage it has caused to the brain, clinical experts in the field of neurodegenerative diseases suggest Psychostimulant drugs like Adderall to combat many of the symptoms ascribed to Alzheimer's. Medical researchers attribute the positive potential associated with this pill in influencing the neurotransmitter in the brain, thus causing an improvement in the intellectual cognition. Moreover, it enables AD affected people to overcome attention deficiency, disorientation, and forgetfulness.
Managing Alzheimer's by buying off-label prescription rx online
Each Alzheimer's patient displays some difference in the progression of symptoms. This has led the off-label use of drug rx in treating the dominant symptoms in the patient to enable a high quality of life despite the mentally-deteriorating illness. A notable online pharmacy like EXL Pharmacy understands every patient's needs better by providing pharmacy delivery choices for health conditions like anxiety, depression, sleeplessness, general health, and ADHD. Even if you have trouble remembering your order, when you buy drugs online for a prescription refill EXL Pharmacy provides your order history by storing your order information thereby enabling refilling your medication a breeze.Alzheimer's disease symptoms can also be contained by consuming medicines prescribed for ADHD. The widely recommended online pharmacy and drug store for ADHD products is www.exlpharmacy.com that clearly articulates how Adderall helps in controlling attention deficit symptoms and other related neuro disorders.
Adderall- The most potent medication for controlling Alzheimer's
There seems to be a strong correlation existing between the early symptoms of ADHD and Alzheimer's disease, according to the latest research findings. It also states that individuals battling ADHD condition are three times more likely to be affected of dementia. Memory retention process is very poor in those with Alzheimer's disease. The focus of any Alzheimer treating medication is to improve the memory and enhance the cognition ability. Psycho stimulant drugs like Adderall are capable of increasing the levels of dopamine transporter, which indeed plays a crucial in influencing the attention levels, and that's the prime reason why people opt to buy Adderall online. Apathy is also one of the agonizing symptoms of Alzheimer's which cause a negative shade in the lives of those affected of it. Adderall works in the body by stimulating the levels of certain neurotransmitters, thereby controlling the symptoms of Alzheimer's to a considerable extent.

Milwaukee Opera Theatre, Genghis Barbie rock the art song
Audiences at opera singers' recitals do not, customarily, pump their arms and cheer. Of course, singers at said recitals don't usually perform tunes by Queen and Guns N' Roses flanked by a quartet of female horn players, either.
Saturday evening's Milwaukee Opera Theatre presentation of Andrew Wilkowske in "Guns N' Rosenkavalier," directed by John Glover at the Wisconsin Conservatory of Music, was a riot of rule-breaking, genre-bending tunes from the worlds of art song and rock. »Read Full Article

Also, it doesn't make sense for Garcia to pull out of the Judah fight so he can fight Lucas. Why would he walk into a much more difficult fight right now - and if he is willing to fight Lucas anyway, he can do it after Zab, which lets face it, is an easy pay day.
Whatever reason Garcia has for pulling out of the Zab fight, it won't be because he's instead opted to fight Lucas.

I found out we were expecting our first child in January, however, at 8w4d we found out we'd lost the baby, and I had a D&C on Feb 22. I was not expecting a period until AT least this coming Wednesday (28 after the D&C) However we did had unprotected sex (which we were told not to do) as soon as we were two weeks post-op, and have done so about every other day since then (we're young, and we just got married a fewe months ago =) ) Anyway, even though I wasn't expecting a period for awhile, I took a (very) cheap pregnancy test on Saturday, simply because it was the same day in my cycle that I got my positive for our first pregnancy. It came up with a (VERY) faint positive, but it was definitely there, and I took a clearblue digital test to confirm. Could I really be pregnant already? Has anyone experienced this?! I made a Dr appointment for tomorrow morning, to make sure it's not from them missing some tissue from the D&C, but I really really want to be pregnant again...They said it's not likely...I don't know...
Comments (5)
I am so sorry for your loss. I have gone through 3 of them so I know what you are going through.
Since it's been only 3 1/2 weeks since your D/C its probably leftover HCG from your last pregnancy. You should have your dr test your HCG levels and make sure they are going down. Also be careful having sex. Your body has gone through a lot by having a D/C and it needs time to heal. If you went through a natural m/c then I would say go for it but a D/C is a medical procedure and you can get a lot of complications from it, Good luck.
DH Chris DD Gianna & DS Frankie
M/C at 12wks 10/06, twins at 9.5 wks 05/10, 8.2wks 02/11
The nurse said it is most likely left over HCG or that they missed a little bit when they did the D&C, so I am going tomorrow to check. I know it's not good to be pregnant soon after a D&C, but I literally don't think I could handle getting my period. It would just be another stab to remind me that I'm not pregnant anymore, when so many people around me are. I had to block my sister in law's facebook, because I literally cried every time she updated about her pregnancy (She had her gender ultrasound the same day I had the one that told me we lost the baby, and she hasn't say one word of comfort since it happened, she just posts, multiple times a day about how excited she is for her third baby, and I feel like it's a personal slap in the face) I just want to be pregnant again so I stop feeling inferior to her for not having children. I know this is horrible, because it's not got for me or the baby, physically, but emotionally, I can't handle NOT being pregnant at this point. Also, I am sorry that you've had to go throught this three times with four babies...you can see how wwell I'm handling doing it once, I can't even fathom your pain.
I know how you feel, I have also been there. It is something hard that we have to unfortunately go through. Don't try to force a pregnancy. Do what the doctors say to get a good pregnancy. It is normal to be angry and resend others. That is what makes us human. Try talking to someone about what you have been through. You will get there again. good luck sweetie

CLEVELAND — Mike Brey knows how to coach a team to make baskets, and he knows how to make reporters laugh out loud when they're covering their 37th press conference of March Madness.
So, in advance of Saturday's NCAA Tournament Midwest Region final game between his Fighting Irish and the undefeated (and, in 49 states, relatively unpopular) Kentucky Wildcats, Brey acknowledged the obvious: Even though the Irish are 32-5 and a No. 3 seed, and even though they represent Notre Dame, which many college sports fans loath, their current circumstance transforms them into lovable underdogs.
MORE: Arizona-Wisconsin, 6:09 p.m. ET | 37 wild things UK has done | Elite Eight lines
Tipoff is scheduled for 8:49 p.m. ET at Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland.
"We are America's team tomorrow," Brey said. "There's no question about it. Got some great texts. And we love it. Certainly, we will take all that support. We've got a monumental challenge on our hands."
Kentucky not only has played and won 37 games, but it is setting defensive standards unmatched in the modern era. The Wildcats allow 84.7 points per 100 possessions. Since 2002, when statistician Ken Pomeroy began compiling efficiency ratings, no team has held opponents under 85. Opponents shoot 34.8 percent against Kentucky. Since the NCAA began keeping track of that stat in 1978, no team has held opponents under 35 percent.
MORE: Stage set for truly Elite Eight | Sunday's schedule
On the other hand, the Notre Dame offense is No. 3 in efficiency, behind only Wisconsin and Duke, and after the Irish assailed Wichita State's fine defense with 48 second-half points — making 16 of their first 19 shots after the break — Brey acknowledged his team is the only one in college basketball capable of producing such overwhelming outbursts.
So that's it, right? The most oppressive defense against the most electric offense?
Things in sports are so rarely that simple.
PHOTOS: Must-see Sweet 16 snapshots | VIDEO: Game highlights and more
There are at least four important elements that will decide whether Kentucky or Notre Dame moves on to next weekend's Final Four in Indianapolis.
1. Kentucky can't leave shooters
Watch UK practice and it will not be long before you will hear coach John Calipari bellow, "We don't leave corner shooters." He has studied the efficacy of 3-point shooters and recognizes that is a particularly dangerous area. It's why so many offenses design actions to draw defenders in toward the lane, so that the shooter will be left open in the corner with no one to distract him from the goal.
UK cannot afford to leave Irish forwards Patrick Connaughton and Steve Vasturia alone in the corners. But more than that, the Wildcats cannot afford to overly concern themselves with penetrating ballhandlers and leave any shooters room to work. They must trust their interior defenders, particularly center Karl-Anthony Towns, to control any ballhandlers who sneak past the perimeter defense and into the lane. Towns has 86 blocked shots. He can handle himself. The one way Notre Dame wins this game is three points at a time.
2. The Irish must rebound
Although Kentucky shoots less than 47 percent from the field and 35 percent from 3-point range, it has the No. 6 offense in college basketball. How could this be? The Wildcats rebound what they miss. They are among the best at retrieving their own shots.
Can a team that lacks Cincinnati's frontcourt muscle and will somehow hold the Wildcats off the boards? On paper, this is a big, big problem. The Irish do not rebound well. They are among the weaker teams in the nation in this statistic. It's unlikely they'll out-rebound UK.
But they don't have to get buried, and it's likely they can't afford it. Butler is a terrific rebounding team, and the Irish somehow won the rebounding battle in their game last weekend. Sometimes, it's about will as much as size.
"What I've seen in the last five games is they're really defending," Calipari said. "They're playing more physical, they're playing tougher, their rotations are tighter and I think that's why they've gone on this run, because now they can get to 75, 80, and they make it hard for you to do it now."
3. The Wildcats need Devin Booker's touch
After a month of struggling with outside sholts, after admitting he really needed to see one of his shots connect to reignite his confidence, Booker made his first two 3-pointers in the blowout win against West Virginia. His delight was obvious, as was his contribution to Kentucky's victory.
MORE: Booker's perfect postgame tweet
He did miss his next three long-range jumpers, however.
Booker's importance is magnified because of the uncertainty regarding sophomore Aaron Harrison's effectiveness. Harrison was outstanding before he dislocated a finger in the WVU game. The injury was on his non-shooting hand, but the left still plays a part in his release.
"It's a little sore," he said, "but it's not going to be a big factor in the game."
4. Notre Dame must endure
Several teams made it to the final minutes against Kentucky, but all were knocked out before the final bell. One significant difference? UK players rarely are fighting fatigue when they get to the last few minutes. In eight March games, only 10 times have Kentucky players gone over the 30-minute mark. Notre Dame has had six occasions of players going 40 minutes just in the past two games.
This can be a significant advantage for Kentucky. The guys Brey is leaving on the court are out there because they're outstanding: All-American guard Jerian Grant , backcourt partner Demetrius Jackson and Connaughton. But Calipari's nine-player rotation can be physically and mentally exhausting for opponents to endure.
There is a natural comparison available between what Notre Dame will attempt and what Brey (and his more famous boss, Mike Krzyzewski) accomplished at Duke in the 1991 Final Four. UNLV came into that national semifinal game undefeated and Duke ended that streak. But the Blue Devils were the deeper team, and UNLV got in trouble when star point guard Greg Anthony fouled out.
"I didn't share any of that with our guys but that's a good comparison," Brey said. "I thought about that.
"Nobody was giving us much of a shot, maybe similar to this setup. I've tried not to compare it to other things. Like with this group, they've cut their own path."

I have been enjoying these orange riccota pancakes, recipe on my blog:
The ricotta makes them super fluffly and delicious.
Pancakes are the new oatmeal in my house. And it's not just because I've been eating them every day for breakfast recently.
My favorite part about oatmeal is the creativity I can have with different toppings, and lately I've been channeling that creativity to my pancakes.
Take coconut pancakes, for instance.
There's nothing earthshattering about this. It's sweetened coconut flakes sprinkled on a pancake while it cooks.
But the coconut gets slightly toasty when you flip the pancake and you get this delicious, slightly crunchy sweetness in each bite. It's so simple yet SO good.
This is hardly a recipe, but I'll share it anyway:
Coconut Oatmeal Pancakes
Makes 7 to 9 pancakes
1 3/4 cups pancake mix (I use Trader Joe's buttermilk pancake mix; here is a good recipe if you want to make your own)
3/4 cup quick-cooking oats, uncooked
1 egg
1 3/4 cups water
1 cup (approximately) sweetened coconut flakes
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Whisk together all ingredients except coconut, adjusting the amount of water or pancake mix to make a medium-bodied batter (not too thick, not too thin). Pour 1/4 to 1/2 cup pancake batter onto the hot skillet and tilt skillet to spread batter to 1/4-inch thickness. Sprinkle desired amount of coconut flakes on top of batter. After about 1 minute, or when batter is bubbly, flip pancake. Cook another 1 minute. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve immediately.
Other combinations that would be good: sliced banana in the pancakes with peanut butter topping; chocolate chip walnut pancakes; wheat berries in the pancakes with blackberries on top; granola pancakes; coconut mango pancakes; apple cinnamon pancakes... what else would you want to try?
P.S. I forgot to link to the homemade taco seasoning recipe I mentioned yesterday, so here it is.

LOS ANGELES — The term San Francisco manager Bruce Bochy uses to describe his team's recent state of affairs is "buzzard's luck." It stems from the rash of injuries the Giants have encountered to everything happening to them between the foul lines.
The defending World Series champions wasted another superb outing from Madison Bumgarner, who pitched into the eighth inning but made two ill-fated pitches to Los Angeles Dodgers rookie phenom Yasiel Puig that made the difference in a 3-1 loss Monday night.
Puig drove a 1-1 pitch the other way into the lower seats in the right-field corner with one out in the first for his seventh homer in 20 big league games. It ended Bumgarner's 16-inning scoreless streak against the Dodgers, and was their only hit until Puig's two-out single in the sixth.
In the eighth, Puig delivered a tiebreaking single during a two-run rally.
"I feel like every pitch I made to Puig, I threw where I wanted to and just mixed it up on him," Bumgarner said. "He got me the first at-bat and I didn't expect him to do that. He's obviously good, or else he wouldn't be doing what he's doing. It's going to take everybody a couple of times facing him to see what he's trying to do. I think it's pretty clear what he's trying to do, but it's just a matter of seeing him a few more times."
Bumgarner (7-5) was charged with three runs — two earned — and five hits in seven-plus innings with five strikeouts in his 100th big league start. The 23-year-old left-hander engaged in another tense duel with Hyun-Jin Ryu in a rematch of their April 2 meeting, when Bumgarner spoiled the Korean-born lefty's major league debut with eight innings of two-hit ball and retired 18 consecutive batters during a 3-0 win at Dodger Stadium.
Nick Punto, who replaced third baseman Juan Uribe in a double switch, led off the eighth with an opposite-field double down the right-field line. Mark Ellis sacrificed Punto to third and reached safely when Bumgarner threw high to first for an error.
Puig greeted George Kontos with a line-drive single to left that scored Punto.
"He's a good player and he's swinging the bat well," Bochy said. "He's strong and he's a talented kid who can run, throw, hit, hit with power the other way, and he got a couple of big hits against us."
Hanley Ramirez drove in the final run two batters later on a liner toward the middle that shortstop Brandon Crawford knocked down with a lunging attempt before getting the out at first.
Kontos was recalled from Triple-A Fresno before the game, while Jean Machi was sent back to the Giants' Pacific Coast League club. Kontos was optioned to the minors on June 11, the day he received a three-game suspension for throwing at Pittsburgh's Andrew McCutchen. But since he is appealing the penalty, Kontos is eligible to play until his case is heard by Major League Baseball.
The Giants began a 10-game road trip with a familiar face back in the lineup: Pablo Sandoval was reinstated from the disabled list Monday after missing 14 games because of a left foot strain. He went 2 for 4.
San Francisco tied it in the second inning with an RBI double inside third base by Andres Torres that scored Joaquin Arias from first base — but Arias strained his left hamstring on the play and came out of the game.
"We think it's mild, but we'll re-evaluate it tomorrow," Bochy said. "I don't think he hurt it too bad, but we'll have to wait and see how he's feeling tomorrow."
Crawford, who replaced Arias at shortstop, flied out with the bases loaded to end the third after Ryu got a visit from pitching coach Rick Honeycutt.
The Giants had the bases loaded again in the fifth, but only because Buster Posey slipped and fell rounding third base on a one-out single by Sandoval before scampering back to the bag. Crawford followed with a comebacker to Ryu, who calmly threw to the plate to begin an inning-ending double play.
"It's buzzard's luck, in a game like this," said Bochy, whose team is 6 for 38 with runners in scoring position over the last five games. "It seems like these things happen when you're in a streak like we're in. When you're in a rut, what can go wrong goes wrong. And when you're in a winning streak, it's just the opposite. Tonight it was definitely bad luck, how the game went. Joaquin would have been up there with the bases loaded twice, but he pulls a hamstring. We need somebody to come through for us."
Paco Rodriguez (2-2) got two outs and Kenley Jansen worked the ninth for his fifth save.
The Dodgers' third straight victory tied their longest winning streak this season, which came back in early April. This was their ninth attempt at matching it.
"We've been trying to get over this three-game hump for a while, so it was important for us to break through today," catcher A.J. Ellis said. "We just want to carry the momentum into tomorrow."
Ryu allowed a run, eight hits and four walks in 6 2-3 innings. He was lifted by manager Don Mattingly after Posey reached second on a fly to right field that Puig was just about to catch when his backside made contact with the auxiliary scoreboard and the ball fell behind him. The play was originally ruled an error, then changed to a double by official scorer Don Hartack.
Ronald Belisario then came on and struck out Hunter Pence.
NOTES: San Francisco is 15-22 since completing a three-game sweep of the NL East-leading Atlanta Braves on May 12, and Los Angeles is 18-21 during that same stretch. But the Dodgers trail the second-place Giants by 4½ games and first-place Arizona by eight in the NL West. ... Puig was 3 for 4 in his first game against the rival Giants. ... Pence was 2 for 2 with a walk against Ryu, and has six hits in eight at-bats against the lefty overall.

Tuesday, May 20, 2014
Jasmine Quinn made the most of her final track meet representing Fort Dorchester High School.
Quinn won four events, setting new state records in two, during the South Carolina High School League Class AAAA Championship Meet last weekend.
The Fort senior set a new state record for the girls 100-meter hurdles with a 13.54 time and set a new record in the long jump with a 20-02.25 mark. Her mark in the long jump broke a state record that had held since 1982.
Quinn also won the 100 dash with an 11.66 time and the 200 dash with a 23.77 time. Her four wins tallied 40 team points, which was enough for Fort Dorchester to place fifth in the team standings behind JL Mann (71), Wando (54), Northwestern (42) and Ridge view (42).
I wanted to run faster times than I did last season so Im happy with that, Quinn said. Im also happy I was able to PR the long jump.
Athletes are only allowed to compete in four events at the state meet so after Quinn won all four events at the 2013 meet to receive all-state honors in each she set her sight on running faster and jumping longer this year. In addition to her eight state track championships, Quinn has a pair of state gymnastics titles from when she was younger.
Now she will shift her focus toward competing in the World Juniors track and field meet in July and collegiate track. Quinn has signed to run for the University of Kentucky.
Ill probably take about a three week break and then continue training, she said. I probably need to hit the weights too because I plan to show them what I can do as a freshman.
Quinns all-conditions personal best time in the 100 hurdles is 13.33, which when recorded was the fastest raw time in the nation amongst high school hurdlers. She placed sixth in the event at the 2013 New Balance Nationals to claim All-American honors. As one of the nations elite prep athletes, she had several colleges interested in her but decided to attend the one that was most loyal to her.
Kentucky stayed in contact with me and showed they were more interested in me than anyone else plus I like their coach, Quinn said. Their athletes have done well in the 100 and the hurdles and it is just a good program. I wanted to go where I felt most comfortable and they made me feel comfortable when I visited.
The Fort Dorchester boys also placed fifth at this years state championships, but they needed more than one athlete to do it. The Patriots finished with 28 points to finish behind Northwestern (92.50), Wando (50), Sumter (35) and Dorman (31).
Stephen Gillette placed second in the 800 with a 1:58.09 time and Jerod Lacy placed fifth with a 1:59.04 time. Josiah Johnson placed sixth in the 100 with an 11.19 time. Olin Ravenel III placed sixth in the 400 with a 56.47 time.
The Patriots 4x800 relay team of Alexander Armstrong, Jerod Lacy, Aaron Mouzon, Jhaimin Mackey, Deontearis Williams and Gillette placed second with a 7:57.62 time.
The Fort Dorchester 4x400 relay team of Brenton Williams, Gillette, Lacy, Ravenel, Johnson and Williams placed seventh with a 3:28.68 time.

LAKEWOOD -- Alemany had the game on ice, but you couldn't tell by listening to Vernon Adams.
The Warriors' buses warmed up in the parking lot, the cold air making their fumes clearly visible from a distance. Meanwhile, Alemany's cheering section chanted, "We want Servite!" And still, Adams stayed on his teammates. He wanted their collective attention.
"It's not over," Adams yelled. "Let's go!"
He was right: Alemany's season is not over. The No. 3-seeded Warriors beat Lakewood, 42-21, Friday night to move on in the Pac-5 Division playoffs. Adams was behind it, throwing for two touchdowns and running for another. The senior quarterback finished with 206 yards on 12 for 19 passing.
"If Vernon was two inches taller, everyone in the country would want him," Alemany coach Dean Herrington said. "He's a special player. He'll be a coach one day, he's just so smart out there. He's the heart and soul of our team."
Adams made sure the Alemany faithful got their wish. The Warriors play No. 2-seeded Servite next week.
It was a difficult ending for Lakewood coach Thadd MacNeal's squad, which was doomed by Adams' Houdini-like escapes.
The greatest came during Alemany's first drive of the second half. Leading by just seven, Adams used his legs to evade tacklers and pick up a first down on a third-and-long. He avoided a sack on the very next play and found Jerico Richardson for a 24-yard touchdown. It turned out to be the game winner.
"Lakewood came out hard," Adams said. "We just came out harder."
Alemany (12-0) blocked Lakewood's first punt and Deron Smith returned it 23 yards for the quick 7-0 lead. Both Herrington and Adams said afterward that the team had practiced on blocking the game's first punt.
"We decided to take a chance and go after it," Herrington said. "Sure enough, it was a bad snap and we got it."
Lakewood (10-2) came right back, though. Quarterback Tyler Schultz connected with Darius Powe for a 66-yard touchdown that tied the score.
Adams responded on his first drive, completing five straight passes for 71 yards. He capped it with an 18-yarder to Shane Drozdowski in the end zone.
Saladin McCullough's 10-yard score gave the Warriors a 21-7 lead, but a Schultz (14 for 34, 175 yards) keeper pulled the Lancers to within seven at the half.
Alemany's defense put the clamps down after that.
"Their defensive front handled us pretty good," MacNeal said. "They took us out of our game plan offensively. We struggled."
Citing bigger and faster players on the other sideline, Herrington was surprised by the wide margin of victory. But Alemany's defense played big and fast, too. Lakewood's Rashad Wadood had rushed for 201 yards the week before, but was held to just 18 on nine carries Friday. Allie Long was limited to 17 yards.
"Our defensive line isn't the biggest, but they know how to play football," Herrington said.
The same applied to Adams.

This review is from: COOLER MASTER R4-S2S-124K-GP 120mm Silent Case Fan
Pros: These things move a lot of air! Helped a lot in my small (cheap) case that had only had 1x120 exhaust fan. I put two in the door and two in the top and My temps went down into the mid 30's (C) from the high 40's. Helped with my OC's for sure!
Cons: None as of yet but I'll re-post if any issues.
Other Thoughts: Being able to buy these in a pack of four is a great way to save $$. I Was surprised how much these helped cool down my case. There is a practically no noticeable fan noise, certainly not like other brands. Thanks CM!READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: ZOTAC GTX 700 GeForce GTX 760 DirectX 12 ZT-70401-10P 2GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 SLI Support Plug-in Card Video Card
Pros: Decent card for a decent price. Found this card to be inexpensive and works in my build without sounding like a harrier trying to take off. Plays the games @ decent frame rates, improved my render times and was least expensive 760 when I bought it. Ran out of the box with no issues.
Cons: Included Firestorm utility is OK but not the best..
Other Thoughts: I needed an inexpensive 760 to replace my old 560 that I had run through the ringer. I was weary of Zotac @ first but after researching them A bit I figured I'd try them out. Noticeable improvement (duh!) in both render times and frame rates over the 560, and the card's build quality seems on par with other (GB, MSI, ASUS) cards. If anything negative happens I'll be sure to re-post.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: Seagate Expansion 2TB USB 3.0 3.5" Desktop External Hard Drive STBV2000100
Pros: Simple backup drive... Might as well have put plug and play on it. Hooked it up and used my company's software and it backs up everything with 0 issues
Cons: None so far, but I'll re-post if any issues
Other Thoughts: The USB3 is wonderful; makes my transfer times a lot faster on daily backups. As usual Seagate hasn't let me down. Thanks guys!READ FULL REVIEW

ping storm
A ping storm is a condition in which the Internet ping program is used to send a flood of packets to a server to test its ability to handle a high amount of traffic or, maliciously, to make the server inoperable. Although the ping support in Windows operating systems does not allow someone to mount a ping storm, the ping command in at least some UNIX-based systems offers two options: "ping -f" which specifies to output ping packets back as fast as they are returned, and "ping -s[packetsize]", which causes the size of the outgoing packet to be padded by some specified size in order to increase the load on the receiving server.
