About Go Carts
Go Karts have been around for a long time, but their popularity has never decreased. Hobbyists have always loved Go Carts, but they aren't solely for entertainment purposes. Buying a Go Cart for your preteen child can help prepare them for getting their driver's license and instills a sense of responsibility in them. Caring for a Go Cart isn't as a complicated as owning a car, but it's a good stepping stone for the intermediate period between the tweens and the teenage years. Plus, kids can never get too much driver's training. Go Carts and their various parts are available at sporting goods stores and specialty shops. Before purchasing an expensive item like this, it's probably a good idea to rent one at a Go Cart track or other similar establishment. This will give you and/or your child a chance to learn more about these machines and how they operate. It will also give you a chance to chat with people already own one. Hopefully, they will be open to discussing Go Carts with you and answering any questions you may have.

Fantasy Guru Daily: An Introduction
We are rolling out a new feature here at FantasyGuru.com, bringing you all the news you need to know on a daily basis in the Fantasy Guru Daily. We will do so on our blog, so readers can chime in. 4-5 days a week, we'll round up the most important nuggets of the day and provide some commentary, starting with some Super Bowl-heavy editions to take you up to the big game next week.
Kemoeatu declares Pouncey out … The shorthanded Steeler offensive line will be even more shorthanded in the Super Bowl, as rookie Pro Bowl C Maurkice Pouncey is unlikely to play against the Packers, at least according to G Chris Kemoeatu after practice Wednesday. Pouncey suffered a high ankle sprain in the 1st quarter of last Sunday's AFC title game, and he was replaced by Doug Legursky, who has started four games at LG this season. The loss of Pouncey, the Steelers'
1st-round pick in 2010, is a big blow to an offensive line that's been missing starting tackles Max Starks and Willie Colon. In the regular season, Pouncey and [...]

- Abstract
- Millimeter-long filaments and accompanying luminous plasma and defect channels created in fused silica by single, moderately focused femtosecond laser pulses with supercritical powers were probed in situ using optical imaging and contact ultrasonic techniques. Above the threshold pulse energy Eopt = 5 μJ corresponding to a few megawatt power, the pulses collapse due to self-focusing and the nonlinear focus moves upstream with increasing pulse energy. Behind the focus, elongated, gradually narrowing awl-shaped channels of electron-hole plasma and luminescent defects are produced. In the channels, whose dimensions generally depend on the pulse energy, supercontinuum emission propagating downstream the channels occurs, although its observation requires elevated pulse energies above 25 μJ in order to compensate energy dissipation in the channels. Ultrasonic side-view imaging of the channels, conducted from a few millimeters distance, reveals predominantly compressive pressure transients. The compressive signals are observed above the same threshold pulse energy Eopt, and their amplitude increases linearly with the laser pulse energy, simultaneously exhibiting significant temporal broadening of the corresponding pulsewidths, reflecting square root dependence of the channel length and sublinear (∝E3/4) dependence of the source pressure on the pulse energy. Altogether, these optical and ultrasonic studies demonstrate filamentary pulse propagation with considerable dissipation ( ∼ 10 cm−1) in the awl-shaped subcritical plasma channels rich with generated point defects and optical damage sites.

One of the key factors, which has influence on any trader's success is his ability to correctly predict the market movements. The two main methods are technical and fundamental analysis of Forex market.
An important feature of fundamental analysis is its global nature. Events, which are analyzed in fundamental analysis, have long-term influence on supply and demand on the currency market. This information is composed of the news about the world's biggest political and financial events. It's hard to overestimate the influenced the news has on financial markets: when the most important news is published, the market volatility increases.
It's quite easy for an experienced trader to analyze and predict how a single event may influence the market. However, analysis of several events, which may influence the market in completely different ways, is a very complicated and time-consuming process. This may be the reason why only approximately 20% of traders use fundamental analysis as their main forecasting tool.
Fundamental approach to Forex market analysis, unlike technical one, covers not only the prices and their changes, but the reasons for these changes as well. Each approach has its followers, advantages and disadvantages.

quote curadoI did a dispute with paypal..also a few others who got scammed from a dude selling the same stuff to multiple users and we got are money back..
quote TbogardUm, boycott paypal? Lol... That is really demolishing their spirit, but true.. I'd suggest u guys read up on bank frauds and possible claims to retrieve ur money.. :/ idk anythin about banks so i can't help in this area..Bad news is I lost the paypal dispute even though I sent the money as "BUYING GOODS". Even with documented evidence clearly showing that the seller scammed (communications, pms, and even admittance from seller that he was never going to produce any goods), Paypal simply looks at this as buyers not covered under intangible goods and swats the case away.
quote swashyI agree. Oh well, the reality is some of us choose to get immediate advantage over long lasting client-relationship. Added to that he disappoints a lot of us, specially ME ... i tried to contact him here, kik and line via some common order friends .. but to no avail. I'm a very forgiving and supporting friend .. but it's the least that I can do to be there for someone, but the fact he's mitigating the issue point towards him being guilty and scared to face the issue. Overall, his character was revealed still hope he'd learn the lesson from this in real life.my guess is he reasoned he got scam of a big sum last time. so he wanted make a fast buck by doing this to others to get back his losses. stupid if u ask me. he could have earn money the legit way and get more in long run and continued on to other games

WHAT IS IT? Think of it as a space blanket for your gas tank.
CONTACT? www.cvproducts.com/powersports or (800) 448-1223.
WHAT STANDS OUT? Here's a list of things that stand out with CV4's Fuel Kool barrier.
(1) Performance. Amazingly, CV4 already owned this market with its stick-on heat shield. Available in either gold or silver, CV4's heat shield mat was basically Drew Lien's old idea moved over to the gas tank. The problem was that you had to cut the foam-backed foil and stick it to your gas tank like a jigsaw puzzle. It didn't always stick perfectly, nor did it stay in place all the time. But it worked, and every factory team used it. There had to be a better way to mount it, and CV4 found it. They sew the reflective material into a pre-shaped blanket (much like a bird cage or barbecue grill cover). It fits perfectly over the bottom of the gas tank and is held in place by Velcro strips that are stuck to the tank.
(2) Materials. The Fuel Kool barrier works as well as the old Heat Shield Mat, but with less hassle. Not only is the new design easier to mount, but it is also machine-washable.
(3) Installation. Here are some tips: First, clean the gas tank thoroughly, otherwise the Velcro strips won't stick. Second, stretch the Fuel Kool over the tank very tightly, since it will get looser over time.
WHAT'S THE SQUAWK? Most local racers, with their less-than-15-minute motos, don't need heat shields. Cross-country racers and Pros do.
The Fuel Kool is a five-star product for a National rider, a four-star product for a hardcore local racer, a three-star product for a play rider; and a waste of money for a poser.

"Triple Self Portrait"
(Please click to enlarge the images)
The Norman Rockwell Museum announced the opening of ProjectNORMAN (New Online Rockwell Media Art & Archive Network) today, the 6th of January, which will allow you to look through thirty thousand of Rockwell's reference photos, preliminary sketches and paintings, and other items from the Museum's art and archive collections. 1
Here's the link to the new gallery http://collections.nrm.org/, and this page gives an account of the archiving process.
His studio alone contained over 3,000 articles, from brushes to furniture.
Could you guess at the amount of all the stuff in your studio?
Below is a little sketch Rockwell sent to a friend.
"Boy on the high dive" 1947 This image comes from an auction site, not from the NORMAAN archive, where the images are MUCH smaller, and watermarked almost into obscurity.
Anyone who is in southern Britain can go along to the Dulwich Picture Gallery in London, and have a look at hundreds of Norman Rockwell paintings in an exhibition that closes at the end of March.
Thanks for the tip-off Miss Hathorn!
- Surely that acrostic would read NORMAAN, no? [↩]

Chris Medeiros predicted he would be dead by the age of 20.
He died on Thursday at the age of 26.
"I just hurt. I just miss him a lot," said Chanda Avilla.
Avilla said she was looking to the future.
Her child with Chris Medeiros is growing inside her, and they had plans to move away and build a life together, but that life took a drastic turn this week when Medeiros was shot on Wednesday.
"My baby is never going to be able to meet him. We're not going to be able to do what we wanted to do together," she said.
"The hardest thing was confusion. Why?" said Shason Moleta.
Moleta is the mother of Medeiros' nine year old daughter Kana'i and said they learned of the shooting shortly after it happened.
In his final hours she said they gathered at his bedside.
"She was holding his hand and she was hugging him and she was kissing him," she said.
Moleta says Medeiros was a loving father and a loyal friend, but it hadn't been an easy life for him growing up living in homeless shelters, then living house to house with his grandmother.
Oahu's west side is known as a place of stunning beaches, big ohanas and jaded streets where life can turn hard.
His family said Medeiros was a part of all of that, he himself, predicting his life would be cut short.
"He was telling me he thought he was going to die, so I think he kind of knew something was going to happen to him," said Avilla.
Police say Chad Duran, a friend of Medeiros' for years, shot Medeiros Wednesday night.
As to how much family and friends knew about why it happened is unclear, but now two men who were once close are now worlds apart.
"Everybody's more hurt for both of them. We lost Chris, but we also lost Chad," said Moleta.

SPCO cancels concerts through March 23
Management at the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra has canceled all concerts through March 23 as the lockout of musicians continues.
SPCO President Dobson West said in a statement Thursday that musicians and management held off-the-record discussions earlier this month but reached no agreement.
Negotiators for the musicians then said they have decided not to honor a media blackout requested by a federal mediator, though they're ready and willing to keep talking.
Musicians negotiator Lynn Erickson says the SPCO management has been unwilling to compromise on several issues that are important to the musicians, and that money isn't the main issue.
Musicians at both the SPCO and the Minnesota Orchestra have been locked out in separate contract disputes since October.

Laurier mourns longtime employee Charlotte Cox
Communications, Public Affairs & Marketing
Jan 20/14
Charlotte Anne Cox, a longtime administrative employee at Laurier, passed away Jan. 11 in Victoria, BC. She was 75.
A Waterloo native, Cox joined Laurier in 1976, initially working in the English department. During her 22 years of service, Cox became heavily involved in the university community. She assisted many researchers by typing manuscripts for publication and, as late Laurier professor Flora Roy wrote in her 2006 book Recollections of Waterloo Lutheran University, 1960-1973, became foster mother to the English department.
Cox went on to work as an executive assistant in the Faculty of Arts and Science, serving under longtime dean Arthur Art Read. In 1991, she won one of 17 awards given to Laurier staff for United Way participation. She also sat on several administrative committees while working at Laurier, and after her retirement in 1998 was an active member of the Wilfrid Laurier University Retirees Association, holding multiple executive positions.
Cox moved to Victoria in November 2011, where she lived until her passing.
A mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, Cox is survived by her three children and their families, as well as her two sisters and their families.
Coxs full obituary can be viewed here: http://bit.ly/1mlA9eb.

A rescue vessel (bottom L) is seen next to the overturned lifeboat (bottom R) of the 'Thomson Majesty' cruise ship (behind) at the pier where 'Thomson Majesty' cruise ship is docked at Santa Cruz de la Palma, Canary Islands, Spain on Feb. 10.
MADRID — Five crew members died in an emergency drill on a cruise ship in the Canary Islands on Sunday, police said.
Cables snapped on a lifeboat and it plunged 65 feet to the ocean and fell upside down, killing the five and injuring three others aboard, during the mock rescue exercise on the Thomson Majesty, operated by British travel group TUI Travel. It was in the port of La Palma.
TUI, Europe's largest tour operator, did not respond immediately to telephone calls or email requests for comment.
Three of the dead were Indonesians. The other dead were a Filipino and a Ghanaian.
The Thomson Majesty, with five restaurants and two swimming pools, cruises to the Canary Islands, the Mediterranean and the Red Sea, according to Thomson's website.

- Notes
- The SWSCR dataset includes weight status data collected from all public school districts outside of the five boroughs of NYC. The data is also aggregated to New York State Department of Education county code assigned to reporting schools and school districts, and to NYSDOH regions and statewide. Because school district boundaries do not align with county or regional boundaries, the county- and regional-level estimates reflect data from students attending school within schools assigned a particular county or regional code. County and regional assignment is not based on county or region of residence.
- Limitations
- Because of restrictions in reporting due to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) there was some variation in how much of the student population was represented in the data schools submitted to SWSCR, especially among smaller school districts. Therefore the percentage of the student population represented in the district, county and regional-level estimates may vary.

This fabled dish is said to have been invented in the Swiss canton of Zurich during a 16th-century siege, when meals had to be improvised from available ingredients.
Tear 1 loaf country bread into bite-size pieces. Set aside. Rub interior of a medium stainless-steel pot with a peeled garlic clove, then discard garlic. Add 1 ¼ cups dry white wine (preferably Swiss fendant) and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
Add 1 lb. (about 3 cups) chopped gruyère cheese and a pinch of nutmeg. Cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, until cheese melts (cheese and wine will not yet be blended).
Combine 1 tbsp. cornstarch with 2 tbsp. kirsch in a small bowl. Mix thoroughly and stir into cheese mixture. Continue to stir and simmer until cheese mixture becomes smooth, about 5 minutes, then season with salt and freshly ground black pepper, adding up to ¼ cup more wine if fondue is too thick.
To serve, transfer to a fondue pot or chafing dish set over a flame. To eat, spear bread pieces with fondue forks and dip in cheese, continuing to stir with forks as you dip. Makes 2-3 cups (about 4 servings).

Crystal Island Lighting
The Glamour of Crystal Lighting
Crystal style island lighting adds a touch of excitement, color and glamour to an otherwise predominantly functional kitchen space. Clean and clear, crystals are a pleasure to behold - and can be a part of pendant, mini pendant, or island lighting styles. While pendants and mini-pendant styles of varying heights serve to illuminate just a specific area of the countertop or island, crystal style island lighting simply swathes the entire island in a brilliant splash of light - colored crystals enhancing the appearance of the kitchen.
Crystal Style Island Lighting can really brighten up kitchens because of the unique ability of the crystals to capture and refract light in interesting patterns. The visual effect will vary based on the type of crystal, its shape and structure or cut. Light fixtures typically sport a minimalist design and metallic finish to match the sleekness of crystals. Prices are affordable and a choice innumerable; branded crystal style island lighting is also available.

BANG ON. When he first appeared for bradford, looked a world beater, strong, fast and big. eent to Rugby Union, failed at that, came back lazy and gutless. Did it when he wanted to, rest of the time didnt bother. Can only see him being even worse now he has dropped a level as he wont feel the need to perform.
waste of talent. lazy and his heart wasnt in at sl never mind championship level.

Sorry you have lost me as Bradford released Pryce and a few others when they had their money problems at the end of last season and he had been a free agent for the close season hoping a SL would pick him up. None have so he has signed for Dewsbury, where is the moral dilemma?
I thought the problem was gaining an unfair advantage by somehow fielding players that are signed beyond the realms of fair play
I guess its some moral dilemma then.
Or don't Dewsbury have a tie in with Bradford?
Must be all above board.

agree wheeler no problem young player still developing in SL, but clough and gardner while top quality players you have to question the new DR system when these kind of players are being sent out on DR. No doubt 2 games in 5 days will have some influence on who plays but i would like to see our own players given a shot in the cougars game and only use DR if needed against leigh
DR should be players under 23 not players with loads of SL experience latest rumours are haven could be offered gardner , clough and wheeler this weekend 2 of which have loads of SL experience personally i,d rather stick with our own players and only use DR to cover injuries or bans

I remember when .............................
"It is impossible not to feel a twinge of sympathy for Workington Town, the fall guys this season for the Super League's determination to retain it's European dimension, in the shape of Paris. While the French have had every assistance to survive, the importance of having a flagship in a heartland area like West Cumbria has been conveniently forgotten." - Dave Hadfield - Independent 25th August 1996.

So what youre saying is if the rules fit your interpretation of them its ok
Difference is Mark, Pryce hasn't just signed a 3 year deal with wire for it to be cancelled to allow him to sign for swinton, like 5 from wire to get around the limit on numbers.Also as voodoo says, Dr worked fine last season you could only register 4 players under the age of 22.It was never meant to be a way of giving established super league players game which is what has happened in some case and i can only see that side of it getting worse as the season goes on.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- Wisconsin labor relations officials refused a demand Monday to stop enforcing provisions of Gov. Scott Walker's contentious public union restrictions against local government unions, brushing aside allegations they're violating a court order.
Wisconsin Employment Relations Commission Chairman James R. Scott said the panel is working to set up hundreds of union certification elections as prescribed in the restrictions and hasn't defied any order. Union attorneys vowed to file a court motion on Tuesday asking a judge to hold the panel in contempt.
The Republican-controlled Legislature in 2011 passed a Walker proposal that stripped almost all public employees of nearly all their union rights. The plan also requires unions to hold annual elections to avoid decertification.
A federal judge in Madison and a federal appeals court have upheld the restrictions in separate lawsuits. But Dane County Circuit Court Judge Juan Colas ruled last year that the restrictions were unconstitutional as applied to two unions representing Madison teachers and Milwaukee public workers.
It's unclear whether the ruling applies to local government unions across Wisconsin, though. The state Supreme Court has agreed to take the case. WERC, the body that oversees labor relations with municipal public employees, has been preparing to hold annual certification elections for more than 400 unions in November regardless.
The Madison teachers and Milwaukee workers unions asked Colas for an injunction blocking WERC from holding the elections. Colas issued a ruling last week saying his decision applies across the board but stopped short of issuing an injunction, creating more confusion.
Attorneys for six unions that weren't involved in the Madison-Milwaukee lawsuit, including the state's largest teachers union, sent WERC a letter Friday warning the commission that continuing to prepare for the elections violates Colas' order. If the panel didn't stop its work by Monday the attorneys promised to seek an order holding it in contempt of court.
WERC met in closed session Monday morning to decide its next move. Scott sent a terse, two-sentence letter to the unions' lead attorney, Timothy Hawks, Monday afternoon saying more than 400 unions have asked for re-certification elections and panel members don't believe proceeding with them puts them in contempt of any court order.
Peter Davis, the commission's chief counsel, didn't immediately return a message seeking elaboration on the panel's position.
Hawks said in a statement that the unions gave WERC a chance to "correct their behavior" and now will file a motion asking Colas to hold the panel in contempt.
Lester Pines is an attorney representing both the Kenosha Education Association, one of the six unions that demanded WERC stop the elections, and the Madison teachers. He said WERC is essentially arguing it's merely doing what the unions asked. But the unions had no choice but to ask for the elections, he said; if they hadn't asked for them by Aug. 30 they would have been decertified automatically.
"That is chutzpah," Pines said of the panel's response.

AB football players arrested for fleeing from police
Eight Alderson Broaddus University students – including several of the school's football players – were arrested Sunday on misdemeanor charges of fleeing on foot for reportedly running from officers in an off-campus incident.
According to a press release from the Philippi Police Department, Patrolman R. G. Matheny responded to a loud noise complaint early Sunday around 12:45 a.m. at 112 Beech St. in Philippi.
Upon arriving at the scene, Matheny saw open containers of alcohol on the porch. When he began to identify the individuals who were present, he witnessed some of them running out of the back of the house, according to the release.
Matheny, along with a Barbour County sheriff's deputy and another patrol unit from the Philippi Police Department, began a foot pursuit of the suspects.
The police department's press release identified the students as members of the Alderson Broaddus University football team, saying, "The names of the players are not being released at this time."
An Alderson Broaddus University said Wednesday not all the students were players.
"Initially those eight individuals had identified themselves as football players, but after further review, we have found out that they are not all football players," Marketing and Communications Director Ashley Mittelmeier said, also confirming that all of the defendants are students.
Mittelmeier said she is uncertain exactly how many of the students are on the football team.
"Even though it was an off-campus event, if coaches want to hand out some consequences, that's up to them to do that," she said.
Records on file at Barbour County Magistrate Court identify eight individuals arrested on Sunday for the misdemeanor charges of fleeing on foot. All of the defendants were transported to the Tygart Valley Regional Jail and have been released on a $500 personal recognizance bond.
All of the defendants are at least 18 years of age and were identified as Jordan James Nizeer, Kenneth Andrew Holland Jr., Aaron Lamont Holley, Marcus Angelo Anderson, Gage Denier Bunner, Gary Joseph Neal, Zachery Tyler Templeton and Adam Christopher Mellott. According to an online AB football roster, Holley, Anderson, Bunner and Mellott are team members.
Telephone calls to the AB athletic director's office were not returned by press time.
Wednesday. According to the Barbour County Magistrate office, no hearings had been set for any of the defendants as of Wednesday.

Skip to comments.NBCs Gregory asks Greenwald if he should be charged for aiding Snowden
Posted on 06/23/2013 11:30:24 AM PDT by Thane_Banquo
The Guardian's Glenn Greenwald slammed NBC's "Meet the Press" host David Gregory on Sunday for asking whether he should be charged with a crime for "aiding and abetting" former government contractor Edward Snowden, who leaked classified information to him about the National Security Agency's surveillance operations.
"To the extent that you have aided and abetted Snowden, even in his current movements, why shouldn't you, Mr. Greenwald, be charged with a crime?" Gregory asked on the news show.
Greenwald immediately rejected the premise of the question, calling it an "pretty extraordinary" question for a journalist to ask another peer.
"I think it's pretty extraordinary that anybody who would call themselves a journalist would publicly muse about whether or not other journalists should be charged with felonies. The assumption in your question, David, is completely without evidence, the idea that I've aided and abetted him in any way," Greenwald responded, speaking via video satellite from Brazil.
(Excerpt) Read more at thehill.com ...
David Gregory..
Speak no evil against Obama.
See no evil and report against Obama.
Keep it up, Gregory, you won't be allowed to speak either.
David Gregory is an Obama tool.
Small popcorn, please...hold the salt, easy on the butter.
Gregory is BHO's "short arm"!
David Gregory can commit crimes and it's OK though.
Gregory is BHO's "short arm"!
I think we all know that Gregory would be praising Snowden and anyone connected with him if this had happened on Bush's watch. Gregory is a mindless partisan, not a journalist.
I am increasingly concerned that the American people may need to do something to push back this assault on basic civil liberties, or else we will quickly descend into the thousand years of darkness that Reagan warned us about.
If that were true David Gregory, then just about every journalist, State Department and CIA Shadow Warrior and Democrat staffer should also be tried, convicted, and hanged for treason.
Why was Gregory not charged with illegal possession of the high capacity magazines he waved around on Meet the Unimpressive?
Oh right...liberal corruption and crimes don't count.
Treason is the act of giving aid and comfort to the enemy.
This guy is charged with treason for giving information to the American public?
If Snowden had done this during the Bush Administration Gregory and his goons would call him a hero
Considering that Obama sees the American public as his enemy, and I certainly hope he is becoming more right on that question, it almost sounds appropriate.
so even left wing journalists are seeing how some other left wing journalists and pundits are so biased
Shades of Tyler Gatewood Kent, 20 May 1940.
How anyone can watch these idiot Sunday "news" shows is beyond me.
I think This weasel and Upchucks wives work for the DNC while he is a subcontractor
He hit the nail on the head. David Gregory is not a journalist, but a political hack who does what Obama tells him to do.
David works directly for the White House. I surprise he did not show him the dead horse head.
Did you ask yourself why?
Mr. Gregory is the husband of a major lawyer for
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac which own THE patent
which is about to get the biggest Communist "kick"
of all time this week ... with Global Warming.
David Gregory dons the knee pads for Obama. Again.
Lyrics from a "Psy" song.
Kill those Yankees who have been torturing Iraqi captives
Kill those Yankees who ordered them to torture
Kill their daughters, mothers, daughters-in-law, and fathers
Kill them all slowly and painfully
Sounds like Greenwald slammed Gregory pretty hard, then went to twitter and clearly got under Gregory's skin.
Greenwald 2, Gregory 0.
If we threw in lawyers we might just save the nation.
FWOW. George Stephanopoulos on ABC puts together a pretty good show, and his panels always include at least one conservative.
"...calling it an "pretty extraordinary" question for a journalist to ask another peer."
There's the problem Mr. Greenberg...Gregory is not a journalist.
Although Greenwald may be a bit left for my ideological liking, I must give credit where credit is due.
That was one fine bitch slap he put on David Gregory's sycophantic mug.
Whatever the rights and wrongs of what Snowden did, I don't want Obama to be able to crush him, if only because of the fear that would inspire in other would-be whistleblowers. Snowden makes me think of that Chinese man who stood in front of the line of tanks during the crackdown at Tiananmen Square.
I admire Greenwald for exercising restraint. If I were him, I would have stood up and beat Gregory to a bloody pulp on camera.
... Obama should be watching you both!
"Hey, good idea!"
Yeah, I have a lot of wonderful ideas, but they never seem to implement them. ;-)
Mr. Gregory is about to be persona non grata with his leftist liberal viewers, many of whom are on Mr. Snowden's side of this equation. Gregory was between a rock and a hard spot, supporting the Obama viewpoint or that of his liberal fans rooting for Snowden. He chose to advocate for his true love, Obama, and may very well lose the support or viewership of his socialist, leftist base as a result.
Screw that! Make with the salt and extra butter. I want my arteries to crack like dried spaghetti when I'm done with this popcorn!
Gregory = Goebbles 2013.
Beginning to see just exactly where you you stand with both establishment parties in all 3 branches and all levels of government yet? This isn't left vs right. It isn't dem vs pubbie. It's "us" vs "them."
"Make with the salt and extra butter."
I'm with you on that!
Plain, air-popped popcorn makes a great substitute for Styrofoam peanuts for packing and shipping fragile items. Similarly, Styrofoam peanuts make a reasonable substitute for plain popcorn for snacking.
Just reading the snippet brought forth visions of the propaganda ministers of the Nazis and Soviets. "Those who don't study history are doomed to repeat it".
No, he should receive some sort of medal of liberty.
Unfortunately.....we have a lot of Obama Supporters now on FR who agree w Gregory
And they don't care about the Constitution and our freedoms anymore than Obama does.
Dickhead Gregory's question was answered by the U.S. Supreme Court (it's called the First Amendment):
"I think it's pretty extraordinary that anybody who would call themselves a journalist.
Gregory is just mad because the guy exposed the truth about Dear Reader.
We have to read British papers to get any news these days.
David Gregory..
Speak no evil against Obama.
See no evil and report against Obama.
Keep it up, Gregory, you wont be allowed to speak either.

WHOO HOO!!! It's finally here… Fourteen Days of Crafting Love, I am so excited! I am also so thrilled to have such a FABULOUS group of talented bloggers participating in this fun Party.
Mom4Real, Yesterday on Tuesday, Craftberry Bush, The Polka Dot Closet, Rook No.17, 504 Main, My Uncommon Slice of Suburbia, A Spoonful of Sugar, and Live Laugh Rowe.
We will all be posting together today and then after this each blogger has an assigned day where they will be sharing on there blogs a Fun and Lovely craft with you. I will be posting EVERY day so be sure to be checking back and checking out these other Fabulous blogs for the next 14 days..
Today I will be sharing with you this Diy Ruffled Apron, the BONUS is I will be giving this Apron away at the end of this Party.. How exciting is that!! And, the best thing is all you have to do is leave a comment at the end of this post.
So on the off chance you don't win this Adorable Apron, I will go ahead and show you how to make one of your very own.
I cut 2 pieces for the bib in a rectangle shape 10×13 . On the ruffle pieces I cut those on the fold, bottom ruffle 12 inches, middle ruffle 10.5 inches and top ruffle 7.5 inches. The waist band (2 total) 2.5x 27 inches and the straps (4 total) 2.5x 76 inches long. (the straps are extra long because they crisscross in the back.
Cut out a base for your ruffles to be attached to. I cut mine 21×7 inches. You will need to finish the bottom, top and sides of your ruffle strips. You can use a serger or a zig zag stitch. Turn over your finish edges and top stitch. Ruffle the Top Edge of our ruffle strips and then attach them to your base starting from the bottom ruffle to the top.
For the bib place right sides together and stitch up the sides, turn right sides out and press. On your straps sew right sides together stitch up the sides and leave the top and bottoms open for turning right sides out. Press and top stitch. Place your straps inside the top of your bib and sew.
Take your waistband strips and place right sides together with your bib sandwiched in between. Pin in place and sew.
On the bottom part of your waist band turn the edges under about an half and inch and press.Then place your Ruffled pieces in the middle of your bottom waistband, pin and sew.
I made two little strips (you can see in the top left picture) by taking 2 inch strips and doing the same thing I did for my straps. I put them in on the ends of my waistband to act as loops for my apron straps to go through, in order for it to crisscross on the back into a bow.
And… There you have it. Your very own Ruffled Apron!
Simple as that!
Now if you love this Apron as much as I do… Be sure to leave a comment to enter to win!!!
The winner will be chosen by Random Number Generator at the end of the 14 days party.

Police say Derrick Jones of Washington, D.C., hit the train around 3:16 a.m. Saturday. They say the crash happened in the area of Old Porter Road at Porter Road and that Jones' car became wedged under a tank of liquefied petroleum gas after he struck the train.
Jones was taken to a hospital by helicopter and was admitted with non-life-threatening injuries. A passenger in his 1994 Ford pickup was treated for minor injuries at a hospital.
Police say Jones was also charged with careless driving, disregarding a traffic control device and driving with expired tags.

To answer your other question, I still only offer Joe one breast at a time. I often offer him the same breast twice in a row, if I don't think he really emptied it out the first time. But I no longer really have to think about this. And he has NO PROBLEM sucking the milk down, no matter full my breasts are. He's now like "Yay! MILKY boob!" (He doesn't talk, but he shows his appreciation in other ways!)
My breasts have self-regulated, and rarely spray or leak anymore. So while I am still a habitual one-side-feeder, and I have never had a problem with low supply, I haven't considered my supply too high since four months or so.
High supply is hard at first, but it ends up being a blessing. So many women struggle with low supply!

Closed hearing sought in death sentence case
RUTLAND The legal team representing convicted murderer Donald Fell is asking a federal judge for a closed-door hearing in one of the key arguments in Fells latest death sentence appeal.
In a 10-page motion filed last week, Lewis Liman, a New York City attorney representing Fell, asked Judge William Sessions to conduct a series of juror examinations scheduled to take place on Aug. 15 behind closed doors to protect Fells appeal and the privacy of the jurors from the potential adverse effects of public exposure.
The jurors who found Fell guilty in the 2000 killing of Terry King, of North Clarendon, will soon have their own actions and comments during the trial examined.
The conduct and statements of some of the jurors have been called into question by Fells appeal attorneys, who contend that his right to a fair trial may have been infringed.
Mr. Fell is under a sentence of death and he has an exceptionally urgent need to protect his opportunity for the full and fair airing of the facts ..., Liman wrote. The Supreme Court has held that if even one member of a jury that has sentenced a defendant to death was not impartial, that sentence must be vacated.
Assistant U.S. Attorney William Darrow, who asked Sessions last month for permission to interview the jurors, said he couldnt comment on whether the government would respond to the request for a closed-door hearing or what stance prosecutors might take.
As part of a comprehensive, 350-page appeal, defense attorneys described interviews with a handful of unnamed jurors. In one case, a juror who told the court prior to the trial that she had never been the victim of a crime later told defense attorneys she was sexually abused as a child.
Defense attorneys say another juror acknowledged a criminal conviction that was never mentioned during jury selection and another juror said he made an unsanctioned trip to Rutland during the trial to inspect the crime scenes, according to the defense appeal.
The same juror who made the trip told defense attorneys that he pointed an unloaded shotgun a key piece of evidence in the case at another juror during deliberations to make a point.
Prosecutors said Fell and his co-defendant Robert Lee used the unloaded shotgun to threaten King, whom the pair kidnapped and killed. Lee later killed himself in prison while awaiting trial.
While the actions and comments of only three of the 12-member jury were called into question in the appeal, Liman wrote that other members of the jury would need to be interviewed to determine whether their decisions were influenced by the actions of other jurors.
Liman said the judge should deny public access to the hearing with the jurors and seal, at least temporarily, the transcripts of the hearing, to ensure the jurors wont balk under public scrutiny. Liman said that public exposure may have a chilling effect on the three jurors identified only by their juror numbers in the appeal. He also said other jurors who are questioned may also be hesitant to talk about issues that could be relevant to the case including their private history
(Closed door) proceedings will make it more likely that the court will be able to receive candid, unrehearsed and untainted answers from these jurors whose willingness to testify openly and honestly will not be negatively impacted by media coverage... Liman wrote.
Protecting the privacy of the jurors was another concern the judge should consider, defense counsel argued.
While the identities of the jurors was released at the end of Fells trial and some of its members spoke publicly about the case, Liman said the upcoming hearings would place the jurors under far greater scrutiny.
An open court hearing would effect a substantial intrusion in privacy beyond anything caused by the limited disclosures to date, he wrote.
In particular, the three jurors whose conduct has been called into question would be identified and their conduct or personal histories would be explored at length, Liman wrote.
There is a stark difference between revealing the fact of a jurors sex abuse or a prior criminal conviction and discussing the details of these sensitive topics and how they impact the jurors and their family members in open court, he said.

Home field advantage: Roar of the fans or heads of the players?
Home sweet home. It's as if the Mets have a corresponding embroidered sampler hanging in the clubhouse. Perhaps Mrs. Met has gotten crafty lately?
- Get Danny Meyer to ship Shake Shake burgers and Blue Smoke ribs with the team. The aroma of Citi's delicious food will transport the players–like Proust's madeleine–back to their happy place.
- Use television magic to make the team think they're in Citi. Turn the outfield wall of any away ballpark into a giant green screen to project more outfield, just like home. Then, surprise! Extra home runs for you.
- Fancy up away locker rooms. Send a design team ahead to install as many amenities as possible so the team feels as perk-heavy as they do in their own clubhouse.
- Bring beat down cars and auto parts to sprinkle around visiting parks so the team thinks it's entering right at Willets Point.
- Send the team on the road with a truck full of Queens water. Use the water in away toilets, showers, water fountains. Clearly it has magic powers.
- Hypnosis. Convince the boys they never left the comforts of Citi. There's no place like home. There's no place like home. There's no place like home. Now cluck like a chicken.

Thank you for this! While I pumped and stored milk for DD1, I used the Medela bags...probably went through at least 15-20 of the 50 ct. boxes and had just 1 bag leak. They are reliable, just too darn expensive.There are five brands out there:
1: Medela. The draws on these ones are the ability to pump directly in them if you want to and the claim by the company that the double walls help prevent freezer burn. I have never had one of these leak in almost 7 years of pumping and storing milk. But they are expensive, and I find them really quite difficult to pour out of. I also find that pumping right into them is silly...You almost can't move while doing so because it's so easy to spill the milk from them!
2. Lansinoh. What I like about these is that they can hold a lot more milk. I put 6-7 oz in these and it does just fine. I have found they will split if you drop them while frozen and then they will leak. I have a good amount of stash in these because I find them about every 3 months on sale somewhere. I put them in a ziplock bag in the freezer to help prevent freezer burn (as well as removing all air from the bag before sealing it.)
3. Honeysuckle. I find them to be almost just like Lansinoh, but they have to be ordered (which is OK if I remember I need them early enough!) and are biodegradeable, which is very cool. I think the bottle image on the top is totally stupid. I think the plastic is more durable than Lansinoh. I dropped a couple frozen bags and they didn't split.
4. Simplisse. I got a box of these at BRU a few weeks ago, just to try, but I haven't used them yet as I still had about 100 Lansinoh bags at the time. They are very like Lansinoh, actually, only they were significantly less expensive. I've only seen them a couple times at the store. I'm sure they could be ordered. They are a pretty pink.
5. Gerber. Owned by Nestle if you care about that kind of stuff, which is why I don't buy them. But they were OK IME. I haven't used one in years and years though.
I'm sure there's some other brands available as well.
I think I will plan on using the Lansinoh bags and just try to be extra careful not to drop any bags. I will also bag them up in a Ziploc bag to prevent freezer burn. I'm going to figure out a way to thaw them in something sterile, so that leakage isn't a huge issue. I used to thaw in cool water, so that won't work.

Baking Measurements
Knowing how to measure ingredients, and then measuring carefully, will help ensure that your baked goods turn out just right. American cooks use standard containers: the 8-ounce cup and a tablespoon that takes exactly 16 level fillings to fill that cup level. Measuring by cup makes it very difficult to give weight equivalents, as a cup of densely packed butter will weigh considerably more than a cup of flour. The easiest way therefore to deal with cup measurements in recipes is to take the amount by volume rather than by weight. Thus the equation reads:
- 1 cup = 240 milliliters = 8 fluid ounces
- 1/2 cup = 120 milliliters = 4 fluid ounces
Measuring liquids:
Use a clear, standard liquid measuring cup with a pouring spout. This cup has measuring marks for 1/4, 1/3, 1/2, 2/3, 3/4, and 1 cup, as well as fluid ounces and milliliters. Place the measuring cup on a level surface and fill to the desired mark. Read the measurement at eye level for accuracy.
Measuring dry ingredients:
Use standard dry measuring cups that come in sets of 1/4, 1/3, 1/2, and 1 cup. Lightly spoon the ingredient into the measuring cup. Level it off with the straight edge of a spatula or knife.
Measuring solid fats and brown sugar:
Use standard dry measuring cups. Firmly press the ingredient into the cup and level it off with a spatula or knife.
Measuring margarine or butter:
The wrappers on a stick of butter or margarine are printed with measuring marks for each tablespoon, 1/4 cup, 1/3 cup and 1/2 cup. Use a knife to cut the margarine or butter at the desired mark.
Here are some additional measures for margarine or butter:
- 1/8 stick = 1 tablespoon = 1/2 ounce
- 1/4 stick = 2 tablespoons = 1 ounce
- 1/2 stick = 4 tablespoons = 2 ounces
- 1 stick = 1/2 cup = 4 ounces
- 2 sticks = 1 cup = 8 ounces
- 4 sticks = 2 cups = 16 ounces
Measuring dairy sour cream and yogurt:
Use standard dry measuring cups. Spoon the ingredient into the cup and level it off with a spatula or knife.
Measuring small amounts of ingredients:
Use standard measuring spoons for all ingredients, liquid and dry. These spoons generally come in sets of 1/4, 1/2, and 1 teaspoon and 1 tablespoon. For dry ingredients, fill the spoon and then level it off with a spatula or knife. For liquid ingredients, fill the spoon to the rim.

But it could be so much more.
For part deux, Stallone returns as Barney Ross, along with his merry band of mayhem makers, Lundgren, Statham, Li, Couture, etc.
Added to the list of geriatric G.I.s is Jean-Claude Van Damme and Chuck Norris, along with slightly bigger roles for Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce Willis, who had brief cameos in the first one.
There's some plot about revenge and Stallone feeling sad about something, but basically the movie is about old action heroes trying to prove they can still kick butt, blow stuff up and shoot guns. Really big guns.
And that's all fine and dandy, but why not give them actual lines of dialogue instead of corny one-liners that poke fun at their action star heydays.
Most of the time the one-liners are spoken as dialogue too, which is a bit odd and slightly annoying. Is this how they talk to their mommas?
Schwarzenegger eating breakfast, "Hey mom, I just terminated my pancakes!"
While almost all of the action stars are subpar actors, it never hurt them to try in the past. Here, they just read what's on the page, which isn't much.
But the one actor who has gotten overwhelmingly better over the years is Van Damme.
He's proven over and over again that he can actually act in his straight-to-DVD flicks and especially in his award-winning film, JCVD, where he plays an unflinching caricature of himself as a washed up action star trying to see his kids.
Many audience members were brought to tears by his performance, and this is a must-see for any Van Damme fan.
But he's completely wasted here. Sure, his portrayal of Jean Vilain is pretty awesome when he's on screen, which is basically at the start and end of the film.
The final fight between him and Stallone was something no one ever thought they would see, and it's pretty awesome, but it's over way too quickly.
Van Damme's straight to disc sequels for the Universal Soldier franchise have far better fight sequences, especially Regeneration, which features a nearly-15-minute fight scene with him taking on Lundgren as he did in the original.
And then there's Norris.
He's just here to please fans. He shows up, says something corny and walks off. Shows up again, says something cornier, walks off.
It seems as if he's not even on the set with the other actors, and it's hard to tell if his acting's gotten worse or the lines are just that bad. He's no Walker Texas Ranger in this one.
But the movie's climax is the primary reason anyone went to see this in the first place.
Almost every living '80s action star blowing the hell out of a lot of disposable bad guys.
And you can't help but notice the grin on Schwarzenegger's face as he fires off thousands of rounds, an act he seemed to miss while being the Governator. It proves he's finally back, hopefully for good this time.
The movie lives up to it's hype after all is said and done.
The audience gets exactly what they wanted by the time the credits roll, though maybe next time they'll hire a better writer who doesn't just watch '80s action movies and pick out his favorite lines.
The entire cast seems to have a blast making these movies, so maybe for part 3 – and there will be a part 3 – we'll actually get the rumored Clint Eastwood, and he'll help get the story up to snuff.
The old guard just needs to stop making fun of themselves and start acting like the heroes they are to a legion of fans who still believe they can save the world.
Even if it's just one movie at a time.
The Expendables 2 is playing at Rio 6 Cinemas, 806 E. Houston St.

Hewlett Packard on Monday unveiled its new HP EliteBook 6930p laptop that can operate for as long as 24 hours with special ultra cell capacity battery under certain conditions. The actual battery life of the product may be considerably lower, however, it should be among the longest in the industry.
"All-day computing has been the holy grail of notebook computing. With the HP EliteBook 6930p, customers no longer have to worry about their notebook battery running out before their work day is over," said Ted Clark, senior vice president and general manager of notebook global business unit at HP.
The HP EliteBook 6930p laptop is based on Intel Core 2 Duo processor for mobile computers, Intel PM45/GM45 core-logic and ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3450 graphics adapter, if necessary. The system may be equipped with 14.1" HP Illumi-Lite LED display to considerably reduce power consumption as well as Intel Corp.'s solid-state drives, also announced on Monday. Other options are configurable, hence, the notebook can sport large-capacity hard disk drive, more advanced graphics core as well as large amount of memory.
In order to work for 24 hours, the EliteBook 6930p requires separately purchased 12-cell ultra capacity battery and customer download of the latest Intel graphics driver and HP BIOS. Notebook must be configured with optional Intel 80GB SSD drive and HP Illumi-Lite LED display (planned to be available October 2008) and requires Microsoft Windows XP operating system. Battery life will vary depending on the product model, configuration, loaded applications, features, and power management settings. HP bases its claims on the results of an industry benchmark, which means that the system will hardly work for 24 hours under typical working condition. However, the system with 12-cell battery, LED screen and SSD should definitely work for a very long time.
The HP EliteBook 6930p is built for the corporate road warrior as it features a shock-resistant hard drive, enhanced display panel and spill-resistant keyboard to help defend data against bumps, drops and spills. It was designed to meet the tough MIL-STD 810F military-standard tests that measure levels of environmental reliability and operation at extreme temperatures, while withstanding vibration and high humidity. The inner magnesium shell of the notebook's HP DuraCase is equipped with a honeycomb pattern that is thermally bonded to anodized aluminum for a solid construction.
Pricing of HP EliteBook 6930p $1199, whereas the 12-cell ultra capacity battery costs $189.

An Odd Win, And A Not-So-Exciting Loss
Yankees Take 2 of 3 from Royals
That walkoff win was pretty awesome. It was definitely a Drama Club win if I have ever seen one! In last night's loss, the Yankees looked a bit tired. On Tuesday the Yankees won 4-3, and last night they lost 4-3.
The Win
Pitching Analysis: A.J. Burnett beasted it Tuesday night. He was great!!! He was spotting his fastball, and used that curve to his advantage. I think I am ready to fully trust A.J. again. Whethere he is the #2 or #3 starter in the postseason, I think he will do a fine job. Yeah, A.J.!
I love him!
Phil Coke (he signed my baseball!) pitched well in the 7th, it was his defense that was gross. David Robertson returned on Tuesday. He recorded 2 outs in the 7th, walked Callaspo,and was pulled for Bruney. He looked good, his velocity was there, and I was glad to see him back. Bruney did a nice job as well.
Defensive Analysis: Phil Coke's horrible defense was the reason the walkoff was needed. He took too long to field the bunt, and it wound up being a single. Then, with first and second and 1 out, he got a comebacker, which he threw into left field! A run scored, and now the Royals had a 2-1 lead. Then another comebacker was hit to him, and instead of throwing home, he threw to first! COKE! What was wrong with you? You pitched great, but your defense! Ugh! At least we won that game.
Offensive Analysis: These Yankees have a LOT of power, and they seem like they can always come back. Tex hit a solo homer in the 6th to tie the game at 1. In the 7th, Swish led off with a solo homer, cutting the deficit to 3-2. the 9th is where the magic happened.
Ex-Yankee Kyle Farnsworth was called upon to nail down the save for the Royals. But a Yankee rally was on its way. My darling-baby Francisco Cervelli got himself a 1-out single to start the rally. Eric Hinske pinch-hit, and he got a single, moving Cervelli to 3rd. Hinske (he signed my baseball!) then surprisingly stole 2nd! The throw went wild, and Hinske went to 3rd as Cervelli scored, knotting the score at 3-3. Johnny Damon was intentionally walked to get to Juan Miranda. I was thinking that Tex was on deck, but he was taken out. It was going to be Miranda. I was thinking, "Miranda? Oh, this kid isn't gonna do anything. It's too much pressure. Well, with 1 out, all he has to do is put the ball in play….I hope he doesn't strike out…" Obviously, Miranda heard me. All he had to do was put the ball in play, and the Yankee Stadium Magic would take care of the rest. And that's what happened.
Yay for Miranda!
Miranda hit a sharp comebacker to Farsworth, and off the bat I was thinking, "Oh sh!t. This won't get the job done." But then the Yankee Stadium Magic took over. The ball hit off Farsworth's foot, and began heading for foul territory! And it was a fair ball! Farnsworth raced toward the ball, and Miranda hustled toward the bag. Miranda won. The dugout emptied, he got pied, and the Yankees won 4-3. It was odd, but I loved it.
Our 15th pie….and they still taste great, don't they, Juan?🙂
The Loss
Pitching Analysis: Joba Chamberlain started last night, and he really disappointed me. He only went 3 & 2/3 innings, and allowed 3 runs on 7 hits, and he threw 91 pitches. That's a little ridiculous. I expected better things from Joba last night. He didn't make me too happy.
Joba, Joba, Joba….what are we gonna do with Joba….
Aceves, Albaladejo (he signed my baseball!), Marte, Mitre (♥I♥love♥this♥guy♥), Hughes and Mo all pitched in relief last night. I had a big history test to study for last night. I set time aside for it, and since nothing spectacular was happening in the game last night, I was going to study for a long time. On my way to my room to study, I heard, "And Mitre will get off the bench, and he will come in to pitch."
I stopped in my tracks. My thoughts: "Mitre? Tonight? Right now? But the test, it's my first one and I know it will be hard. But Mitre! He's hot and I love him and it could be the last time I see him. AAAAHH!!! What do I do? Do I drool over that sexy-thang and wind up flunking tomorrow, or do I study and miss my baby? I only had a short time to decide, the commercials are short between pitching changes. Although I like my history teacher and would love to do well, I like Mitre more. I watched him. I just studied after. I made such a big deal about that decision. I just studied after Mitre pitched. I won both ways!
Defensive Analysis: Now I love Nick Swisher, but when Mitre was pitching in the 7th, what happened on that play? John Buck hit a deep fly ball to right, and Swish looked as if he was going to make the play. But he turned and switched directions, and the ball fell. Then he was lying there on the ground, and tried to roll the ball over to Melky. It was a disaster. Buck wound up with an RBI triple, and Mitre gave up a run. But it was charged to Marte, so I was not as annoyed. That run was the difference in the game. Oh well. You can't win them all.
Offensive Analysis: The offense was quite dead last night. 3 runs on 5 hits. Jeet had a solo homer and Swish had a 2-run shot, but that was it. They looked tired last night. Whatever.
We won the series. And we clinched awhile ago! I love the way that sounds! The heroes for the victory on Tuesday are A.J. Burnett for his stellar performance, and his pieing, Eric Hinske, for that timely stolen base that set the whole thing up, and Juan Miranda, for putting the ball in play and letting the magic take over. That was the last regular season game in the Bronx. I believe that the new stadium is going to provide the Yankees with a huge homefield advantage. I can't wait! I'm, getting so excited!!! GO YANKEES!!!!!!
7 Comments
Question: Do you like Mitre? lol jk🙂. We can take two positives from this series.
1) No injuries
2) The Yankees have a very deep team
Two great things to take from a series that doesn't matter. DON'T MESS THINGS UP IN TAMPA!
Good Post!
— NYColeman
I hope you didn't flunk your history test because you were watching Mitre!!!!! I'm excited about the playoffs too and hope the Yanks will figure out the roster, keep everybody healthy and finish the season on a high note in Tampa. CC will dominate in Game 1 and the bats will come alive. I'm counting on it.
It was a great game, and somehow the yanks keep winnin. Why do they do that? It makes us Indians fans angry!!
Ted, they do it because they have DESIRE… and a heckuva lot of talent! We're just a few days from the start of the SEASON!!!! : )
I love your enthusiasm. I am super excited about tonight. I already forgave my babies for their mishaps on the road. I am ready to celebrate tonight because tonight will be the night!
Let us know how you did in your history test.
Honestly, this one loss doesn't really hit anyone hard. It is unfortunate that we lost but the Yankees have been on such a roll that nothing has really gotten me down. Check out my blog, I just wrote about it.

JUSTIN LEONARD/DELOITTE JUNIOR TEAM CHAMPIONSHIPNorthwood ClubDallas, TexasJune 28 â July 1, 2004
DEFENDING CHAMPS OSBORNE & HOLLAND TIED FOR LEAD AT NORTHWOODWard & Cox shoot 6-under-par 65, Barton & Burlison lead Girls Division
DALLAS â Will Osborne of Wichita Falls, Texas, and Charlie Holland of Dallas, wasted no time in defense of their title Tuesday, jumping out to a 6-under-par 65, but Christopher Ward of McKinney, Texas, and Jordan Cox of Redwood City, Calif., matched their score to force a two-way tie for the lead in the first round of the Justin Leonard/Deloitte Junior Team Championship. In the Girls Division, Lila Barton of Dallas, and Sydney Burlison of Salinas, Calif., lead by three strokes after teaming for a 2-under-par 69.
Conducted by the American Junior Golf Association, the Justin Leonard/Deloitte Junior Team Championship is being held at Northwood Club in Dallas, the site of the 1952 U.S. Open. The 54-hole event features 72 players from 11 states and Mexico, including 48 players from Texas.
The players competed in a modified scotch format, under which each player hits his/her own tee shot, then plays his/her teammateâs ball for the second shot. The team then chooses which ball it would like to play out and continues under alternate shot format until the ball is holed.
Osborne and Holland, winners of the 2003 Justin Leonard/Deloitte Junior Team Championship, took advantage of their experience as a tandem to put together a bogey-free round.
âWe work really well as a team,â Holland said. âWe have similar games â we both have good short games.â
The teammates agreed that a win this year would be even sweeter than the year before.
âWe want it more than last year,â Osborne said. âYou donât see many defending champions â itâs one of the hardest things to do in golf.â
Ward and Cox shot a 5-under-par 31 on the front nine and coasted in to grab a share of the lead.
âWe got each otherâs backs out there,â Cox said. âIf one of us missed the fairway, the other would put it in position to hit the green.â
âHe saved us a lot,â Ward said, pointing to his teammate.
Ben Herrera of Waukee, Iowa, and Kevin Grabeman of Springboro, Ohio, are one stroke back along with Kevin Schultz of Richardson, Texas, and Trent Leon of Dallas, who also shot 66. Scott Barton of Dallas, and Jeffrey Edelman of Southlake, Texas, are two strokes back at 67.
In the Girls Division, the duo of Barton and Burlison was the only team to finish in red numbers.
âWe played well but we also had a bunch of near-birdies,â Barton said.
âWe left a lot of shots out there,â Burlison said. âBut we covered for each other when one person hit a bad shot.â
Katy Barrett of Las Vegas, and Brooke Todare of Paradise Valley, Ariz., shot a 1-over-par 72, and sisters Andrea and Sarah Zwartynski of Allen, Texas, are four strokes back at 73.

Idaho seniors Stephen Madison and Glen Dean turned in stellar performances and the Idaho men's basketball team gutted out a 73-70 win over Kansas City in the Western Athletic Conference quarterfinals on Thursday afternoon.
Madison scored 26 points and added a career-high 17 rebounds while hitting all 11 of his free throw attempts and three of his five 3-point attempts. Dean came off the bench and went 4-for-6 from 3-point range and added six assists. He also converted two critical free throws with 10 seconds to play to finish with 14 points.
"Glen Dean stepped up and played his best game since early in the season," Idaho coach Don Verlin said. "He was almost flawless until that last turnover. Glen is obviously a very good defender, he was on Harrison all night and he did a good job of keeping him in front, and he's a hard guy to keep in front. I thought Glen played a whale of a game tonight."
It wasn't just the Idaho seniors who stepped up. True freshman Sekou Wiggs scored a career-high 18 points and added four rebounds. His free throw with three seconds left gave Idaho its final 73-70 margin.
It was the first WAC tournament victory for Madison and Verlin.
"It feels awfully good, and Stephen and I enjoyed a special moment because we hadn't gotten one yet," Verlin said.
"It means a lot because we've put a lot of hours in over the last four years," Madison added. "It feels good to get one and we'll keep going forward and show what this group can do."
The Vandals led by eight points, 68-60, with 2:14 to play when the 'Roos went on a 7-0 run to close the lead to one.
"You've got to give them credit, they made some good plays," Verlin said. "They got us to turn it over with the press, they got a good charge on Steve, and then they made a 3-pointer. That's how they got back in the game."
The 'Roos threatened to take the lead in the final minute but Madison drew a charge then converted a layup on the other end to help put the game out of reach.
"I was just trying to make the plays to help our team, and just do what I do best," he said.
The Vandals shot just 41 percent from the field while UMKC hit 48 percent of its shots, but Idaho hit 8-of-18 3-pointers and held the 'Roos to 6-of-23 from long range, and owned a 37-26 rebounding advantage to make up for it.
The win is Idaho's fifth in its last six games, and the Vandals improve to 15-17 on the season. UMKC finishes its season at 10-20. The fifth-seeded Vandals will take on top-seeded and regular season
champion Utah Valley at 6 p.m. (PT) on Friday.
"We've been playing pretty well the last four or five weeks," Verlin said. "The second half of the league we've played pretty good basketball, and I thought tonight we were ourselves. I like where this team is going, I like how they've matured."
The Vandals lost twice in the regular season to the Wolverines, including an 89-88 loss in Orem, Utah in a game where Madison scored a career-high 42 points.
"When you lose to a team, you always owe them one, so we're going to be ready," Madison said.
