The lawsuit filed in San Francisco federal court was a scaled-down version of an initial complaint filed in 2001 that sought to represent 1.6 million women nationwide.
But the U.S. Supreme Court tossed out that class action lawsuit in 2011, ruling it found no convincing proof of companywide discrimination on pay and promotion policy. The court also said there were too many women in too many jobs at Wal-Mart to wrap into one lawsuit.
After that setback, the women's lawyers filed smaller class action lawsuits, alleging discrimination occurred in different states and Wal-Mart "regions."
On Friday, U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer ruled the smaller suit on behalf of California women employees was still too disparate and wide ranging to qualify as a class action lawsuit. He also found that the lawyers failed to show statistical and anecdotal evidence of gender bias.
"Though plaintiffs insist that they have presented an entirely different case from the one the Supreme Court rejected, it is essentially a scaled-down version of the same case with new labels on old arguments," Breyer wrote.
The ruling does not consider whether the women were victims of discrimination and allows their individual claims to proceed in litigation.
Messages to the plaintiffs' attorneys were not immediately returned.
Wal-Mart said it was pleased with the ruling.
"We've said all along that if someone believes they have been treated unfairly, they deserve to have their timely, individual claims heard in court," the Bentonville, Ark.-based company said in a statement.

Farage goes but Ukip has Welsh Assembly in its sights
Ukip leader Nigel Farage has resigned as leader of his party after failing to be elected as an MP but says Ukip now has its sights set on doing well at the Welsh Assembly elections in 2016.
Ukip did not win a single seat in Wales. However, the party came second in several areas and had the third largest overall number of votes in Wales.
Ukip had third largest overall number of votes in Wales
Ukip did not win a single seat in Wales. However, the party came second in several areas and had the third largest overall number of votes in Wales.
Ukip 'confident of coming second' in Merthyr & Rhymney
Ukip says it is confident of coming second in the constituency of Merthyr Tydfil & Rhymney, according to our reporter there, Hannah Thomas.
Ukip's Nathan Gill: 'Plaid may take Ynys Mon seat'
By Ian Lang, Ynys Môn
Ukip's Nathan Gill is speculating that Plaid may well take the Ynys Môn seat, with his party coming in third after Labour.
Plaid Cymru are saying they believe it's going to be close, with much depending on the vote in Holyead.
It could hinge on how many Labour voters take a punt on UKIP - but one observer is saying that, at the moment, the Conservatives seem to be doing better than UKIP.
Meanwhile the Liberal Democrat candidate Mark Rosenthal is admitting that it's not likely to be his night, but is still hoping to pick up votes.
But, as one party helper said: "The night is still young."
Welsh UKIP defector rejoins Conservatives
A Welsh defector to UKIP has returned to the Conservative party - less than six months after leaving it.
William Routley had been welcomed to UKIP at its Welsh conference in December by the party's leader Nigel Farage.
Now the former Newport councillor says that he thinks the only way to secure controls on immigration and a renegotiation of Britain's membership of the European Union is by voting Conservative. But he told Political Editor Adrian Masters that he has no regrets about his move.
In terms of Mr Routley's membership: we would say that whilst it is always unfortunate to lose a member, winning votes is what matters, and UKIP are on-course to win millions of votes in this election.
Meanwhile, UKIP Wales leader Nathan Gill told ITV News: "It's no difference to us, one way or the other":
Leanne Wood fires back at Ukip's Nathan Gill
During the Wales Election Debate Nathan Gill said that the Welsh Assembly are 'not dealing with what they have got adequately' after being asked whether the Assembly should have more powers.
Leanne Wood then responded to Gill's claims by saying that the Welsh Assembly are 'not children.'
It follows an analogy he used to explain his point further by saying that 'when my children ask for more food I tell them to finish what's on their plate first.'
Nathan Gill: Ukip will 'fight for British jobs for British people'
In his opening statement, Ukip's Nathan Gill has said that his party has the 'most fair' immigration policies of all of the parties involved in the debate.
He also said that Ukip will 'fight' for British jobs for British people.

Born from our strategic process – Building Our Lives Of Discipleship is more than a phrase – it is an opportunity – a challenge – to live a deeper, more active life of faith in Jesus Christ.
We believe that God's bold love for us compels a bold response. At Christ Church this finds its expression through our discipleship: through our prayer, study, worship, service, fellowship and giving. Christ Church is alive with this activity— ministry happens here in a thousand ways every week, but only because first, people answered the call to give. In response to all that God has done for us, and all that we are called to do for Him, please pray about your pledge, and Be BOLD! in your giving in 2016.
Christ Episcopal Church operates primarily on the faithful giving of our members and visitors. This can be in the form of cash offerings, fulfillment of a pledge and/or a planned gift. Any contribution is most welcomed, and all gifts are important to the work of the church.
A pledge is a promise between ourselves and God to return what He has so generously given to us. Because it is a known amount, contributions in the form of a pledge help us make informed budget decisions on our operating expenses and our commitments to ministries, fellowships, education classes, community programs and other activities. Therefore, it is extremely important that contributions are made in the form of a pledge.
Thank You
Christ Church affects so many lives in so many ways, which would not be possible without your contributions. We encourage you to prayerfully consider your contributions and/or pledge. Thank you for all that you do, and for making us the church God is calling us to be.

Afghanistan contributes to setting Global Education Agenda Post-2015 at the Asia Pacific Regional Education Conference, Bangkok.
Bangkok 8th August, 2014. Nearly 20 education ministers and their representatives from 37 countries in the Asia-Pacific region endorsed the Draft Asia-Pacific Statement on Education (APREC) Beyond 2015 at the Asia-Pacific Regional Education Conference hosted by UNESCO in Bangkok, Thailand.
H.E Farooq Wardak, Minister of Education, Afghanistan underscored progress made towards Education for All (EFA) goals and highlighted a strengthened Afghan education system serving an estimated 11.5 million children and youth, including 42% females. However, the minister called for further investment in education and recognized "the need for ongoing support from international organisations, NGOs and the private sector to expand access, reduce drop outs, improve quality and match the content of our education to the requirements of the job market and the human capital our nation's needs." In particular he called for "ways to address the challenges in the most remote districts that lack female secondary schools and face a severe shortage of female teachers."
The Draft Asia-Pacific Statement on Education Beyond 2015 represents one of the main regional inputs going into the World Education Forum next year, which will in turn inform the UN Summit in September 2015, where the final international development agenda for the next 15 years will be declared.
UNESCO Assistant Director-General of Education Qian Tang emphasized "The global education agenda is meant to drive development globally and nationally, and to inspire action in areas which are considered key for education. Therefore, it is crucial that all countries participate in the process of the development of this global agenda in order to ensure that it contributes to the realization of their own vision and ambitions for education." He added crucially, that "Member states are in the driver's seat for the development of the post-2015 education agenda."
Endorsing the agenda Minister Wardak reiterated the need for a roadmap beyond 2015 to meet the needs of the Education Sector including the need for: sustained global financial commitment, especially for countries that are behind in their EFA goals, to create regional support and monitoring mechanisms to bring together countries National Taskforces, to facilitate experience-sharing and to forge further regional cooperation to enable all countries to achieve their EFA goals. Minister Wardak also highlighted the need for countries to be held accountable for allocating a sufficient portion of the national budget to education.
The Bangkok Statement outlines six Regional Priority Action Areas for Asia Pacific:
1. Lifelong learning for all: Equitable and inclusive access to quality learning for people of all ages and at all levels of learning, from early childhood care and education to tertiary education in formal and non-formal settings. A goal of 12 years of free and compulsory education for all by 2030 is strongly recommended.
2. Equity and equality: A commitment to addressing all forms of marginalization as well as disparities and inequalities, including gender inequality, in access to education.
3. Skills and competencies for life and work: Education should provide youth and adults with the skills they need to pursue decent work and other opportunities amid challenging times brought on by socioeconomic and demographic transformations. There should also be an emphasis on learning methods that encourage young people to be creative, innovative and to think critically.
4. Quality and teachers: Efforts must be made at all levels and in all educational settings to ensure that all learners are taught by professionally-trained, motivated and well-supported teachers. A key element in this regard is recognizing the importance and proven success of mother-tongue based multilingual education.
5. Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) for education: ICTs must be fully utilized to achieve the post-2015 education agenda to improve access to education, particularly in remote areas, as well as to support teaching and learning and strengthen education management.
6. Governance and financing: A commitment to establishing legal and policy frameworks that promote accountability and transparency in education and actively involve all stakeholders. Public investment in education should reach the internationally recognized benchmarks of 6% of GDP or 20% of total public expenditure devoted to education. Resources should be distributed equitably across education sub-sectors and geographic locations, with specific attention paid to marginalized groups.
The Bangkok Statement concluded by requesting that UNESCO, along with UNICEF and with the support of other international partners, continue to spearhead the development of the global education agenda going into the United Nations Summit in September 2015 and beyond.

Objective To explore associations between bullous pemphigoid (BP) and previous drug use in the United Kingdom.
Design A case-control study comparing the drug history of consecutive patients with BP and control subjects.
Setting Tertiary care center for immunobullous diseases and skin tumor clinics at Oxford University Hospitals.
Patients or Other Participants Eighty-six consecutive BP patients and 134 consecutive controls from the same region and similar in age and sex who presented with other dermatological diagnoses.
Main Outcome Measures Crude and adjusted odds ratios and 95% confidence interval of BP in relation to each drug.
Results Loop diuretics were used significantly more frequently by the BP patients (crude odds ratio, 2.4 [95% CI, 1.2-5.0; P = .02]; adjusted odds ratio, 3.8 [1.5-9.7; P = .006]). No significant differences were found between groups for use of other diuretics, aspirin, antidepressants, antiepileptics, antihypertensives, or central nervous system agents (eg, antipsychotics). Patients with BP used calcium or vitamin D supplements, antibiotics, antihistamines, and prednisolone significantly more often on multivariate analysis.
Conclusions The findings of our study demonstrate increased use of loop diuretics in patients with BP before the development of BP. The mechanism behind such an association clearly warrants further investigation.
Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is an autoimmune bullous dermatosis in which autoantibodies directed against BP230 and BP180 proteins of the dermoepidermal junction lead to the formation of subepidermal blisters. Drug-induced BP has been documented in anecdotal case reports. Such an association has been suggested for multiple drugs, including furosemide,1- 8 angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs),9 β-blockers,10 penicillins,11 and more recently anti–tumor necrosis factor agents used for psoriasis.12
Two French multicenter case-control studies more than 10 years apart found that significantly more patients with BP were taking diuretics (specifically spironolactone) and neuroleptics (antipsychotics) compared with control subjects.13,14 No other published studies have investigated associations between BP and medications, and no such studies have been performed in the United Kingdom. The objective of this study was to explore associations between BP and previous drug use in the United Kingdom.
We conducted a case-control study comparing the drug history of BP patients and controls. Because we performed an exploratory study and lacked pilot data, we did not perform a sample size calculation and thus collected as much data as possible. We included the medical notes of 86 consecutive local BP patients (excluding tertiary referrals) in this study from the Department of Dermatology, Oxford University Hospitals, from January 1, 2004, through December 31, 2008. We analyzed the medical notes and the complete drug history as supplied by the patient's general practitioner (responsible for all regular prescriptions) at the time the diagnosis was recorded. The data we collected from each patient were retrospective because we were interested in the medications they were taking before the diagnosis of BP. Most study subjects were outpatients. The diagnosis of BP was based on a characteristic clinical picture and positive results of direct and/or indirect immunofluorescence studies. A total of 134 consecutive controls from the same region and similar in age (±5 years) and sex who presented to the department with other dermatological diagnoses (chiefly benign and malignant skin tumors but not inflammatory skin disease) underwent similar investigation with regard to drug history.
All drugs were analyzed individually and in groups, including antihypertensives (ACEIs, β-blockers, calcium channel antagonists, diuretics, and centrally active antihypertensives), cardiovascular drugs (antiplatelet agents, warfarin sodium, statins, antiarrhythmics, and antianginals), immunosuppressants, and agents acting on the central nervous system (antidepressants, antiepileptics, antipsychotics, antiparkinsonians, dementia drugs, and hypnotics), to examine their associations with BP. We calculated the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval of BP in relation to each drug. A 95% confidence interval not containing 1.00 is statistically significant at P = .05. In addition, we performed a multivariate logistic regression analysis after adjustment for age, sex, cerebrovascular disease and dementia (which are associated with BP as previously shown by our group15), and patient comorbidities for drugs that were significantly associated with BP in the univariate analysis. Because some drugs may be indicated for certain comorbidities, we adjusted for such confounding comorbidities in the multivariate model to examine whether the drugs were truly associated with BP. For example, we adjusted for hypertension and ischemic heart disease in the multivariate model to examine whether loop diuretics were associated with BP.
We obtained ethical approval from the Oxfordshire Clinical Research Ethics Committee (C02.177).
The characteristics of cases and controls are summarized in Table 1. Our results showed that loop diuretics were used significantly more frequently by the BP patients (crude OR, 2.4 [95% CI, 1.2-5.0; P = .02]; adjusted OR, 3.8 [95% CI, 1.5-9.7; P = .006] when adjusted for age, sex, cerebrovascular disease, dementia, hypertension, and ischemic heart disease). We found no associations of BP with the use of other diuretics, namely, thiazide diuretics and spironolactone (Table 2).
Although in the crude univariate analysis aspirin appeared to be used more frequently by the BP patients, this difference was not significant when adjustments were made for age, sex, cerebrovascular disease, dementia, ischemic heart disease, and atrial fibrillation. Similarly, on multivariate analysis, we found no significant differences between the 2 groups in the use of antidepressants when we adjusted for age, sex, cerebrovascular disease, dementia, and depression or in the use of antiepileptics when we adjusted for age, sex, cerebrovascular disease, and dementia.
We found no differences between the 2 groups in the use of antihypertensives, including ACEIs and β-blockers, or in the use of cardiovascular drugs in general and central nervous system agents, including antipsychotics. Our results also showed that calcium or vitamin D supplements, antibiotics, antihistamines, and prednisolone were used significantly more frequently by the BP patients on multivariate analysis (Table 2).
This study demonstrates significantly increased use of loop diuretics in patients with BP, an association independent of age, sex, cerebrovascular disease, dementia, hypertension, and ischemic heart disease. This finding is in contrast to previous French studies13,14 that found such an association with spironolactone rather than loop diuretics. Spironolactone appears to be used more frequently in France and was used by 7.4% of French controls in the most recent French study compared with 3.7% of our UK controls.14 In accordance with our findings, case reports suggesting an association between furosemide use and BP have been frequently reported.1- 8 Different theories have been proposed for the association of drugs, including furosemide, with the development of BP; these theories include the drug acting as an antigenic hapten or the occurrence of immune dysregulation with disruption in T–suppressor cell function.16
The association of BP with diuretics does not appear to be related to a higher risk for cardiovascular disease, and myocardial infarction does not occur more frequently in patients with BP compared with the controls.17 Furthermore, our results remained significant despite adjustment for ischemic heart disease and hypertension (Table 2). In keeping with these results, we found no differences between the 2 groups in the use of antihypertensives, including ACEIs and β-blockers, and in the use of cardiovascular drugs in general.
Our findings that prednisolone, antibiotics (but no particular antibiotic class on subanalysis), and antihistamines (H1 but not H2 antagonists) were more commonly prescribed to BP patients likely reflect medications prescribed in general practice to treat symptoms before referral to a specialist for diagnosis of BP, although we cannot comment on this specifically because information on the duration of use for each medication was not available. An increased use of calcium and vitamin D supplements may be associated with the prescription of oral prednisolone to treat BP. It has been suggested that the immunomodulatory effect of statins may protect patients against inflammatory diseases, including BP,18 but we found no difference in statin use between the BP patients and controls.
We also found no difference in antipsychotic use between the 2 groups, an association previously reported in French BP patients.13,14 Although the use of antidepressants and antiepileptics appeared to be greater in the BP group on initial univariate analysis, this finding was not significant on multivariate analysis when relevant comorbidities are taken into account (Table 2) and may reflect the known association of BP and neurological disease.15,19
Our group has previously shown that BP patients have significantly increased rates of neurological disease, specifically dementia and cerebrovascular disease.15 In most of these patients, BP developed after the neurological disease. More recently, a large population-based study has demonstrated that patients diagnosed as having BP are more likely to have been diagnosed as having various neurological disorders, including stroke and dementia, before the BP diagnosis.20 We adjusted our significant univariate results for cerebrovascular disease and dementia in the multivariate logistic regression analysis to check that the association was still significant.
The Oxford University Hospitals constitute a tertiary referral center for immunobullous disorders, ensuring that all patients diagnosed as having BP fulfilled the diagnostic criteria. However, only local patients were included to be representative of the local population, to ensure that patients and controls were exposed to similar local prescribing practices, and to avoid bias for severe BP. An accurate and complete drug history provided by the patient's general practitioner at the time of referral was available for all patients because patients with incomplete notes or an uncertain diagnosis were excluded from the study. The limitations of this study include its hospital-based setting, with the potential implications for referral bias; however, because most patients were seen in an outpatient setting, patients were not selected for severe BP and poor general health. The lack of information on the duration of use for each drug meant that relevance of duration could not be assessed, although all medication therapy was commenced before the hospital or clinicopathological diagnosis of BP. Therefore, we cannot specifically address a potential causal relationship between loop diuretics and the development of BP. In addition, we might have found no association with the use of supplements, including vitamins, because these products are frequently purchased over the counter without a physician's prescription and may not have been included in the patient's drug history as provided by his or her general practitioner or mentioned by the patient at the time of inclusion in the study. As a matter of routine, the treating physician inquires about all medications. Although inclusion of a greater number of controls might have increased the statistical power, we could identify only 134 similar in age and sex
In conclusion, although reports have implicated various drugs in the development of BP, a case-control study investigating this relationship after consideration of the indications for the drugs in the United Kingdom has not been published previously. The findings of our study demonstrate increased use of loop diuretics in BP patients. The mechanism behind such an association clearly warrants further investigation.

Rangers play-by-play voice Eric Nadel rips fans for booing closer Joe Nathan, comments on Jurickson Profar getting more playing time and more.
On when he heard the fans booing Nathan:
That was absolutely unacceptable. It was ridiculous. Anybody who boos Joe Nathan just has no appreciation whatsoever for this baseball game and the length of the season and what he's been able to do over the course of this year.

Courtney Vallejo describes how God has shown her that He is, indeed, working to make her holy–and that she needs to be patient and allow this to happen.
Author Courtney Vallejo
Courtney Vallejo talks about bringing home a child through adoption and shares a list of ways friends and family can offer support during the transition process.
Courtney Vallejo reviews her time as a new homeschooling mom while answering some of society's typical questions to ask homeschooling families.
Courtney Vallejo talks about life as a new homeschooling mom. Apparently history lessons can included a trip to the World's largest Military Aviation Museum to see a B12 Stealth Bomber and Science lessons can include a trip to a Children's Museum to see actual dinosaur bones.
It was one of those mornings…Courtney Vallejo was running 8 minutes late. Then she learned that those daily inconveniences could turn into a gift from God.
Courtney Vallejo reviews the film "Yellow Day," scheduled to release on Christmas Day. The film is a beautiful journey both spiritually and cinematically.
Courtney Vallejo learned the power of forgiveness from her daughter, thanks to a hand-written apology note. What are some lessons your children have taught you?
Courtney Vallejo asks: have you ever had a time in your spiritual journey where a topic or thought comes up about God and then suddenly every day there seems to be some sort of mention about it?
Courtney Vallejo has resolved to live out Ephesians 4:29. "Never let evil talk pass your lips; say only the good things men need to hear, things that will really help them."
If by chance you have a child who depending on the day, isn't that excited to get dressed and wants to stay in their pajamas at home, maybe you can relate to Courtney Vallejo's situation. How do you gently encourage your children to engage in Mass when they'd rather be doing anything else but that?
This got me thinking, we have a variety of Catholic Superheros, female, male, young, old, a group that would beat the X-Men any day. St. Joan of Arc lead the French army to Victory. St. Padre Pio was know for bilocating.
Courtney Vallejo was a little worried about what to do to keep the kids occupied during her husband's three-hour afternoon meeting. But she learned some great lessons at the play area of Chick-Fil-A.
If you're looking for an artistic way to interact with the story of Noah's Ark, check out Courtney Vallejo's review of a new art book which uses origami to bring the Bible story to life.
My default is to get strict and play the "I'm the mom, do what I say" card. Does anyone else notice that that specific response doesn't usually gain the admiration or cooperation of our children?
When I had finished describing the most recent melt down situation to him, he asked me what my plan was for handling the next tantrum….. What the counselor said next was the "light bulb" moment, he told me, "It's not if the tantrum is going to happen, it's when!"

Online chess may be the only form of chess people play to obtain any sort of "unofficial" rating...
It's more fun to disparage OP's spelling...
do you even lift?!?!
Balls and other toys mostly. woof woof
You might as well say, 3 reasons why this thread is stupid.
I feel online chess is a great opputunity for people to learn. It's not about the rating (although having a good rating doesn't hurt), I feel playing a lot of games online and sincerely putting good effort on it will eventually help your otb chess
Goodness this forum was dug out from the grave. lol
I want to know why my Scrabble rating remains so low.
There are plenty of scrabble cheat apps....
That's dorta what I thought. The moderators of Scrabble should use Facebook privacy and hacked NSA data to root out the cheats.
They can also load the app directly through their phone and their is no way to monitor that Facebook. Since they decided the NSA's choice to eavesdrop was unconstitutional, they'd be your only hope but, their hands are tied now.....
Yeah I agree, correspondence chess rating is irrelevent. I don't see how anyone could possibly disagree. Real chess is to play on the spot, with equal, real times. (Yes I know I have a online rating that is the highest. One more game to finish then never again.)
NOOOOO. My correspondence rating is my life. Nothing else matters.
I believe in quality Chess. I play USCF Correspondence Chess; you actually can create beauty.
Chess is chess. It doesn't matter what time control it is because the pieces are always arranged the same way on the board (unless your playing 960 of course), but when it comes down to it, it doesn't matter if the time control is 14 days or 1 minute, its still chess.
Please let dead threads stay dead.
I agree. I work a lot on my pnline games while others seem to make moves instantly. 1800 players make onemove blunders. I suck at real chess because i blunder alot. Should work on pattern recognition more but im lazy when it comes to repetative workouts
I feel it depends where your strengths lie, take this guy:http://www.chess.com/forum/view/endgames/nice-mate2?page=1
He's constantly putting up games he's won on bullet showing his great checkmates, I'm sure he wouldn't have got so many of them if his opponent wasn't under time pressure.Personally I'm terrible with a minute on the clock, I find that I just end up making nothing moves in the hope that my opponent will run out of time first, I don't consider this 'real' chess.

Safe & effective. I've been using this daily for years, and it works great. My family always taught us the benefits of a healthy digestive/elimination system (keeps you strong & healthy:). No constipation or diarrhea for us:)! This is wonderful for those times when I don't always "eat right" and I know that what I put in my mouth that may be less than ideal, e.g. beef steak, ice cream, will be sufficiently eliminated w/in 24 hrs. or less. Try it, you'll like it:)! Be well, y'all!

Erm, to clarify, by "harriers" i mean any serious running club. Not "hash house harriers"- which is a fat bimblers social club!
You're aiming to match the performance of other people who already have a head start on you (and are therefore better than you at the moment) and are devoting their life to it. lots of sleep, early nights, fanatical diets, no booze, planning everything around training and recovery. What do you need to do to catch up and keep up? The same, but more, and then hope you were blessed with the right genes.
Don't be coached by a bunch of strangers on an internet forum, most of whom don't know their arses from their elbows. Join a good local tri club (or if you can't find a good local one, maybe start with a competitive local cycling club. And swim team. And harriers (not some fat bimblers social running club). Find a coach there, or by word of mouth from the harriers.
realise that statistically speaking, you won't make it. But statistically speaking, playing the lottery is stupid... And millions of people do that. Some of them win it, too
good luck with it.
Yes. You will be running for years, don't worry about needing to take a few days off if you have a health problem

tim federowicz has been freed to play with his AAA teammates.
The lineup tonight....what the hell. Unless all the players are completely exhausted, this seems like overkill to me. They have 4 days off after Sunday.
Tommy Nance seems like quite an Indy league find
watching heyward attempt to hit a fastball is alarming. he's doing bad things with stuff he should be nailing...weak popups, grounders, late swing fouls...
it's going to be next to impossible to do worse than this season, but hopefully he can at least hit a fastball with authority next year.
He's an incredible defender, base-runner and takes great AB's. A .265 BABIP is highly likely to improve next year. That being said, his power numbers are down too which is certainly concerning so I'd certainly hedge my bets with him next year, but it would be surprising if this is his new normal.
I have no deep level of expertise or analysis here, but I still like Jason Heyward. I truly wish his bat was better, but I love the defense and the feel-good nature of his signing. I might be naive, but I think his offense will improve. I'm glad he's here, and I hope he doesn't make me regret saying that!
Pay the man his money...(MVP Talk)
Kris Bryant is going to own the Cubs himself in 6 years :)
Without doing any actual research because this is the Internets, I have a feeling Bryant will break every arbitration record there ever was unless TheJedi can literally use the Force to convince him and Boras to sign a multi-year deal.
Hammel was supposed to pitch Friday, Cubs said it'll be a bullpen day instead.
Tis either a valid excuse for Hammel's recent struggles or a PR game when they try to trade him this offseason. Or possibly both
#Cubs say Jason Hammel has been pitching through elbow tightness and could have started if the team was still playing meaningful games.

2012 Mitsubishi Outlander SUV ES 4dr SUV (2.4L 4cyl CVT)
I bought this car at the very end of 2012 after my previous car was totaled and I had to make a decision pretty quick.I really hadn't thought of a CUV, but this was advertised right at 19K as a leftover 2012.I really liked to storage and room in the front and rear, and the ride seemed comfortable.Overall a much better value than just a sedan for someone who needs to haul stuff from time to time. So far (19 months in) the reliability has been excellent.No problems at all!Fuel economy is about as advertised 23/28, with better city mileage than that under some circumstances.However, if your highway speeds get up much above 70mph, the economy seems to drop off sharply.
I really like the room in the vehicle; it has a very roomy and comfortable back seat.
Folding down the rear seat leaves a huge space!
Also, the tailgate is very cool and useful - sorry they didn't continue this in the new model.
There's lots of storage, and I like the pretty large gas tank for a CUV on long trips.
The ride is really good, much better than my old Mazda6, and the handling is excellent for this type of vehicle.
The interior is pretty quiet in the city, a bit noisier on the highway.
I love how the gearing of the CVT allows the car to coast with minimal engine braking and how it adds just enough RPM on the hills to keep the cruise right at a set speed.
The CVT is sluggish off the line unless really pushed, although using the manual shift gate seems to alleviate this when needing a fast merge onto the highway.
As others have noted, the interior materials seem on the cheap side (plastic gets scratched easily, the fabric on top of the center console doesn't seem durable.
Also, the old school design of an RCA jack (whu?!) in the console means you need an adapter or two to use an iPod or MP3 player. Paint seems to chip a bit too easy. Finally, the car came with 'starter' tires.
They were Yokohama Geolanders, but only with a tread rating of 200!
Replacement Geoloanders have a tread rating way more than double that.
What a cheap trick.

Phillies lefthander Cole Hamels is in his best stretch of the season. His walks have been down and he is reaping the benefits.
Hamels (4-11, 4.01 ERA) allowed just two runs in eight innings in Sunday's 4-3 victory in 10 innings over the Chicago White Sox.
If Jonathan Papelbon had not blown the save in the ninth inning, Hamels would have earned his third consecutive win.
He struck out seven and walked none. In his last three games, Hamels has struck out 19 and walked one; he has two wins and a 1.57 ERA in that span.
"I think I am more disappointed about that one walk," Hamels said. "I definitely remember it and it wasn't a situation I wanted to walk the guy. That is all I can hope for, letting them hit it instead of giving them free passes because that one walk did score and I can't let that happen."

Posted on 06/01/2011 1:57:24 AM PDT by saveliberty
Please join me in remembering Tony Snow and his family on his birthday.
Happy Birthday, Tony! We miss you and keep your family in our hearts and prayers.
Please join me in remembering our friend, Tony Snow and his family on his birthday today.
Thank you!
I have to start my workday. Thank you and God bless!
I saw Tony at a slight distance when I was at the Supreme Court when the Bush/Gore recount debacle was going on. He was sitting at a makeshift anchor desk for Fox. He was wearing high top sneakers with his suit. He was always so cute, and so smart. I had such a crush on him :)
Saveliberty, I hope you are doing well!
Happy Birthday, Tony!
Happy Birthday, Tony.
Rest well.
Hi Save!
I have kept his emails!
God bless him and his family!!!!
Talk about the good dying young, I truly miss Tony Snow. I relied on his commentary and laughed at the ironies he pointed out - he was one of the good guys.
Talk about the good dying young, I truly miss Tony Snow. I relied on his commentary and laughed at the ironies he pointed out - he was one of the good guys.
Happy Birthday, Tony! We truly miss you!
I miss Tony. He was a good man and web pal!
My prayers for TOny and his family. How I miss those days. A picture of class, just a superb human being. God bless you, Tony.
You summed it up!
I never knew ... Miss ya', Tony.
Tony, a good, GOOD man .... will always be missed.
Happy Birthday Tony... America misses and needs you.
American Journalism and the Constitution (Tony Snow)
Imprimus | December 2001 | Tony Snow
Sorely missed, God bless.
An extraordinary man and Patriot. We miss your class, Tony.
A real GENTLE-MAN and Gentleman indeed. His all too public fight with cancer sets a very high bar for the rest of us. To the end he was positive and cheerful while in the public eye. I join the rest of his fans in wishing the best for his family since Tony, himself, I am confident, is with the Lord.
Cibco and I miss him as well. Prayers for him, Jill and the kids.
My baby is 21 today as well.
Dinosaur and I took him up on it, and we had a wonderful time. We spent an hour chatting with him in his office and them got the tour of the studio.
What a gracious and humble man he was.
Thing is we did not talk politics, but of our families.
His kids had just gotten their report cards and he was so proud of them.
This is the cussin' jar we gave him from all the Snowflakes.
Not quite the neatest desk.
Thank you, save.
I will always think of Tony in terms of good days.
Wonderful to see all of you.
God bless you Tony!! You were a true American patriot!!
God Bless his soul.
We sure have a mess down here. Keep us all in your thoughts.
What fun we had when we felt you were right there in our living rooms, conversing with us.
Then, you left to become the best press secretary ever! It was pure enjoyment watching you give a history lesson to the LSM.....all the while a sly smile from the corners of your mouth.
Thanks for all good times!
Just a nice guy.
One of the really great guys. Everything a journalist was supposed to be. I miss you, my friend.
What a nice start to a remembrance of our friend, Tony Snow. Thank you for beginning it before you headed off to work. Look forward to hearing from you much later, if you get a chance.
It is good to see some familiar names and especially good to see the collection of Tony Snow photos. Hope more will appear.
Back soon.
Even my mom, an uber- liberal, always had something nice to say about Mr. Snow. He always seemed like a classy, very nice man..............
As he shared a birthday with my youngest, I could never forget.
Miss ya Tony.
I was visiting Washington a few years ago. There was a little coffee shop three or four blocks from the White House,( I don't know the name)that I stopped at to grab some lunch.
The place was pretty crowded and I could not find a seat. A guy who was eating by himself motioned me over and told me to sit at his table.
It was Tony.
He was the nicest and most down to earth person I have ever met.
I truly do miss him.
Tony Snow was a great journalist and few will be his equal.
This I didn't remember; Tony going on Jon Stewart.
(Yeah, I know)
He was class, through and through!
To make up for the last link...
The Fox one year anniversary of his death:
Thank God for Tony Snow!
Tony is missed. God bless his wife and family.
I know if you were here, you would thank everyone who posts today. I may not be up to that, but I shall try and thank a few for you.
High top sneakers and a suit. Sounds like Tony, alright.
Happy Birthday, Tony. We miss you so very much.
Saveliberty is hard at work at her relatively new job and enjoying it very much. Her health too is much improved.
Thanx, roaddog.
If the good do die young, as seems to be the case, I should live a long time. [I am already 70!]
Tony's commentaries were well done; always spot on and frequently humorous. Miss them...and him. We certainly could use them in today's environment.

Investors seemed happy with the Federal Reserve's decision not to cut back on its bond-buying activity, as stock markets soared and bond yields plunged. After having been down slightly for much of the morning, the Dow Jones Industrials (DJINDICES: ^DJI ) closed with a gain of 147 points, hitting a new all-time record high. The broader market also did well, with the S&P 500 also hitting a new high-water mark for the bull market.
What's amusing is that the Fed's decision didn't accomplish much except to put off the inevitable. Unless you cynically believe that massive Fed balance sheet expansion can go on forever, investors will eventually have to get used to the idea that a huge source of demand will disappear, forcing market participants to pick up the slack or else see rates rise. From a long-term perspective, therefore, the gains only made stocks less attractive by temporarily making their prices flare upward.
Alcoa (NYSE: AA ) once again led the Dow higher, gaining more than 3.5%. Many investors still treat Alcoa as a commodity stock, and the broader commodity industry did extremely well today. Investors looked at continued cheap financing as helping to support commodity prices that have in many cases fallen sharply during 2013. But it's important to understand that what's good for commodities in general isn't always good for every commodity, and aluminum in particular suffers from some challenges that other commodities don't have to deal with. As a result, even a broad-based recovery might not improve Alcoa's results too much.
Home Depot's (NYSE: HD ) 2.1% rise makes more sense, given the sensitivity that its investors have to interest rates. Even before the announcement, mortgage applications rose more than 11%, as rates had turned lower over the past week. Further declines could lead to more activity in the space, helping support home-improvement efforts as well.
Finally, Coca-Cola (NYSE: KO ) also posted a 2% gain. Despite its consistent long-term history of cash-generating performance, Coke stock has been weak lately, bucking the trend among defensive stocks as the company faces specific concerns about the health impact of its products. Yet the Fed decision arguably makes the company's dividend even more attractive, as lower rates for bond market alternatives support a shift toward Coke stock for portfolio income. The 3% gain in the SPDR Select Utilities ETF (NYSEMKT: XLU ) , which has a number of equally income-heavy stocks in it, shows just how important the Fed announcement was not just for stocks but for income-producing investments as well.
Stick with strong dividends
Whether you're looking at Coca-Cola or a host of other companies with nice payouts, the simple fact remains that dividend stocks can make you rich. They're less likely to crash and burn, and the compounding effect of their growing payouts add up to big total returns. With this in mind, our analysts sat down to identify the absolute best of the best when it comes to rock-solid dividend stocks, drawing up a list in this free report of nine that fit the bill.

Stud cavesson
Sep. 15, 2009, 07:26 PM
What are they used for?
Sep. 15, 2009, 07:37 PM
I always thought that they were for horses who liked to throw their heads around/pull against the martingale. I may be wrong---honestly, I am only guessing.
Sep. 15, 2009, 07:45 PM
Yeah I think people use them for horses that throw head/pull against the martingale. I imagine it is discourages the horse from opening his mouth. I have ridden in one (horse was owned by a trainer--it was her decision, she put it on him because he was tossing his head and had his mouth wide open) and I don't particularly care for it.
Sep. 15, 2009, 09:38 PM
I am thinking you are asking about a cavesson with studs on the underside of the top part, so they are against the horses nose?
This goes in the abrasive noseband category, there are many derivitives of these, and are used on horses that brace against the martingale, it does help. I have not used it for horses that open their mouth, but it could work for that.
There is a good thread about abrasive nosebands on the forum.

I have seen it used for horses that open their mouth in order to evade the bit. I know it worked very well for the one particular case I have seen.

A couple of weeks ago, Scottie Pippen made headlines by saying that LeBron James may be better than Michael Jordan.
Pippen drew plenty of criticism for his comments—and with good reason. While there is an argument to be made that LeBron possesses a rare combination of physical gifts that has never before existed in the NBA, not even in Jordan's prime, the killer instinct and force of will that has become intrinsic in the legend of Michael Jordan is not present in James, nor will it likely ever be seen in the NBA again.
And although the Jordan/LeBron argument may follow James throughout his career, his true historical comparison became clear last night while watching LeBron scold a reporter who questioned his offensive output:
"I think you're concentrating on one side of the floor. All you're looking at is the stat sheet. Honestly, I'm a two-way player. Tonight, since D-Wade had it going offensively, so we allowed him to handle the ball, rely on him to bring us home offensively."
With this response, LeBron James revealed who he truly is as a basketball player, and it isn't Michael Jordan.
It is Scottie Pippen. A more evolved, infinitely talented Scottie Pippen.
Pippen made his living through an all-around game that was unmatched in the NBA during his era and is rarely seen in basketball today. He passed, rebounded and scored efficiently. He also took as much pride in his defense as he did in his offense.
LeBron James is wired in the same way. He is content to win basketball games by making contributions that are not limited to scoring. After years of suffering through one disappointing postseason after another in Cleveland, James decided that the give-LeBron-the-ball-and-get-out-of-the-way offense would never lead him to the promised land.
So he changed not only his team, but almost everything about his game.
He surrounded himself with a higher level of talent, and became dedicated to defense. He also realized that his secondary skills—primarily passing and rebounding—could provide his talented teammates with the glue they needed to win multiple championships.
This is exactly the role that Scottie Pippen played in Chicago. Only instead of sacrificing glory to Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh, he acquiesced to the greatest competitor basketball has ever seen.
If one were building a five man team consisting of any players throughout NBA history, Scottie Pippen would be a wise choice. He could score efficiently without requiring the ball. He could shutdown elite offensive forces. He was perhaps the greatest role player in the history of the game and took on the role willingly—and without (much) ego.
Except for the ego part, LeBron James has become this same type of player.
Watching the Heat's post game press conference last night made one thing very, very obvious. LeBron James has redefined himself. And this change came about not because he doesn't have the ability or the will to win games by himself—history has shown that he clearly does—but because he consciously decided that winning championships is more important than individual awards.
Depending on what your list of the top 100 players in NBA history looks like, Scottie Pippen might be the 50th best player of all time or the 20th. Either way, his career is considered a success story.
Because LeBron possesses the athletic gifts of a top 10 all time player, we expect more out of him. But maybe the "more" that we expect won't come in the form of 50-point playoff outbursts and perennial scoring titles. Maybe it will manifest itself in rings, and plays that don't show up in box scores.
Just because LeBron has taken on a different role does not suddenly make him a lesser player. He may not be Michael Jordan. It is likely that no one ever will be. But ultimately his career may be just as good, if not better. And it will be because he stayed true to who he really is—who his teammates need him to be.
An evolutionary Scottie Pippen. An all-around wizard for a new generation.

A great marriage is not when the 'perfect couple' come together. It is when an imperfect couple learns to enjoy their differences." -Dave Meurer
So do you need to meet a sex therapist? Many sex problems are simple, which can be sorted out with a single or a series of open discussions at home. But there are times when you really need to meet a therapist. And here we are telling you, why and when you should do it:
We Indian's still believe in arranged marriage and our faith in our tradition and values will continue with us even if the world around us is changing fast. There will be a group of people who will keep our traditions alive and hand over to their new generation, despite the fact that whether they will accept it or not.

James McSweeney vs Darrill Schoonover
100,000 on titties
20k on Schoonover!
They better announce him as titties during his entrance damnit. Thats his new nickname he better get used to it.
1 MIllion on McSweeney.....:thumbsup:
McSweeney said he has gained weight and is now a "proper HW".... but he is only a bloated 235..
McSweeney looks great kicking the bags, but he looked horrible standing in his TUF fights. I hope Titties can beat him, although neither one has any sort of a future at UFC HW.
25,000 on Titties. These guys are so untrustworthy.... and I'm putting precious creds in their hands.
I'm betting on titties just because McSweeney is a large ******* douchebag.

Thanks to coldcall420 im putting 100k on Mcsweeny

Sergio doesn't need to fight Golovkin now because he's only beat one top ten guy. But some of the other contenders need to fight Golovkin to prove they're better than him. Why isn't anyone going after Daniel Geale for ducking, or Sturm for ducking (Golovkin was his mandatory after all), or even Quillin recently for ducking?
GGG hasn't established himself far and away as a #1 contender, so it's excusable for Martinez to not fight him especially when he's not a draw in the least. The same can't be said for other lower ranked fighters who GGG can use to make a name for himself against.

It won't happen right now because it doesn't need to. Golovkin isn't in the position to fight Martinez. He needs to knock off Geale/Quillin/Chavez Jr/Macklin, and it's likely that even those guys won't fight him.

A unification fight with Geale would make him the #1 contender (DG is far and out the #1 contender so far based on merit) could get him the Martinez fight and would vastly increase his overall demand as an opponent. In the meanwhile, he should be fighting decent opposition (Jan 19 date) no stiffs. Also, if the Pirog rumors are true, I could see the two fighting on HBO by mid 2013.

A series of lunchtime talks in the autumn, 2016: Wednesdays at 1.15pm (45 mins), Sheffield Cathedral (St George's Chapel).
The relationship between religion and law is a topic that seems particularly pressing in 21st-century Britain. It is at the heart of discussions about the disestablishment of the Church of England, about the 'right to die', and about the place of sharia law in UK courts, to name just a few current debates.
This series of talks, a collaboration between the Cathedral and the University of Sheffield, explores different aspects of this important question, offering historical as well as contemporary perspectives. How have religion and law co-existed in the past, and what shape will this relationship take in the future?

A Bitten Word Recipe
For our recent dinner with Mark and Ryan, we had the main dish -- Coconut Chicken Curry with Turmeric and Lemongrass -- and we had the side, that deliciously addictive Persian-Style Rice with Golden Crust.
We needed a salad.
With the global flavors of the meal as inspiration, and specifically the Persian rice, we decided to improvise a Middle Eastern salad. Using a few things we had on hand, we made a basic vinaigrette dressing with a Middle East twist: pomegranate molasses. We've mentioned this ingredient before, but if you're not familiar with pomegranate molasses, it's a thick, syrupy reduction of pomegranate juice. It's popular in Turkish and Iranian cuisine. Don't let the "molasses" fool you: This isn't sweet. In fact, it's mouth-puckeringly tart. A little goes a very, very long way.
We're fortunate enough to live less than a block from a Middle Eastern grocery store. But you may be able to find pomegranate molasses in the International aisle of your supermarket, or at a specially food store. (And there's always the Internet.)
For the salad itself, we kept things very simple: fresh spinach, some chopped dates for sweetness, and pomegranate seeds for variety and color (and to complement the pomegranate in the dressing).
The finished salad was exactly what we wanted: fresh and bright and slightly exotic without overwhelming the other foods on the plate. It turned out great!
