A King's Ransom? Report Details Sox' Offer for Felix
|08.03.09 at 1:19 pm ET
According to Geoff Baker of the Seattle Times, the Red Sox offered the Mariners a chance to choose five players from a group of the team's eight top prospects as part of a package for pitcher Felix Hernandez. According to the report, the Sox made available a group of players that included right-handed pitchers Clay Buchholz, Daniel Bard, Justin Masterson and Michael Bowden, as well as left-handers Nick Hagadone and Felix Doubront, shortstop Yamaico Navarro and outfielder Josh Reddick. Baker said that the Mariners declined that offer, and so the Sox tried to arrange a three-way deal that would include the Padres and send first baseman Adrian Gonzalez, Buchholz and other prospects, with the Padres receiving prospects from both the Red Sox and Mariners.
Baker said that Seattle ultimately pulled the plug on negotiations for a deal for a few reasons. By keeping the 23-year-old Hernandez, the organization can get a better sense for whether it will have a chance to sign him to a long-term deal to keep him in Seattle beyond 2011, the season after which he will become eligible for free agency. If the team decides that it cannot, and wants to move him either in the offseason or in the middle of next year, Seattle felt that a similar package would be available should they ever choose to deal Hernandez.
The pitcher, who is making $3.8 million this year, does not become eligible for free agency until 2011. Hernandez is 12-4 with a 2.78 ERA this year. He turned in one of the most dominant performances in Fenway Park history in 2007, a complete-game one-hitter in which he stole the thunder from Daisuke Matsuzaka's Red Sox debut.
'He's like an upgraded version of Dwight Gooden. Dwight Gooden made the big leagues at the age of 19 and he was dominant,' Mariners pitcher Miguel Batista said the day before that start. 'He's showing not only the stuff. He's showing aggressiveness, no fear, an approach that guys at a mature age do.
'That's when you start thinking'can he be a phenomenon? Can he be a different era of baseball?' Batista continued. 'He's going to be an ace of any team he goes to, unless he goes to a team with Johan Santana or Pedro Martinez in his best years. And then, they're still going to have to flip a coin to see who's going to start on (Opening) Day.'
The appeal of Hernandez is fairly obvious. He is young, dominant and appears to be getting better, as each full season that he's been a starter has shown a drop in ERA, from 4.52 in 2006 to 3.92 to 3.45 to 2.78 this year. With 51 career victories, Hernandez is one of just two pitchers this decade to reach 50 career wins by his age 23 season, joining CC Sabathia. (For the list of the 20 pitchers who have accomplished that high a wins total by age 23 since baseball integrated in 1947, click here.)
G.M. Theo Epstein did not specifically mention Hernandez in his conference call following the July 31 trade deadline, but speaking generally, he did talk about the Sox' aggressive efforts to acquire an impact player. While the team did land Victor Martinez from the Indians in exchange for pitchers Hagadone, Masterson and Bryan Price, Epstein acknowledged that the team had been involved in talks for a potential blockbuster deal.
"In previous days we had some things working that we were really excited about, and a couple that got really close and then didn't happen, but that's par for the course in trade deadline season," said Epstein. "I think we shot big on a couple things, deals that could provide maximum impact, and we were very aggressive in the use of our own prospects. Those deals got close but didn't happen. Maybe a foundation was laid for the offseason. Who knows?
"But in the end, we wanted to make sure that we had a deal that we could come back [to] and make, a deal at a reasonable acquisition cost and for a player who provides impact in his own right, and we were able to do that today, so it went somewhat according to plan where we knew if we did shoot for something really big and ended up missing, we didn't want it to affect our ability to make a useful move, and that's how it went down."

Radiant Day Moisturizer has the makings of a great moisturizer for dry to very dry skin—if only it didn't contain potentially problematic fragrant extracts, each of which poses a risk of irritation. There's no need to tolerate that risk when there are plenty of rich moisturizers that offer the good ingredients this one has minus the potential troublemakers. This is especially true for those with sensitive skin. See More Info to learn how daily use of fragrant products like this can hurt skin.
This also isn't a good moisturizer to apply during the day, because a daytime moisturizer should provide sun protection, which this one lacks. If the formula didn't contain problematic ingredients it would be fine to use at night, but the product's name is likely to be taken literally as being a day cream. A product rated SPF 15 or greater is key to getting and maintaining smoother, younger-looking skin without wrinkles or brown spots.
Daily use of products that contain a high amount of fragrance, whether the fragrant ingredients are synthetic or natural, causes chronic irritation that can damage healthy collagen production, lead to or worsen dryness, and impair your skin's ability to heal. Fragrance-free is the best way to go for all skin types. If fragrance in your skin-care products is important to you, it should be a very low amount to minimize the risk to your skin (Sources: Inflammation Research, December 2008, pages 558–563; Skin Pharmacology and Physiology, June 2008, pages 124–135, and November-December 2000, pages 358–371; Journal of Investigative Dermatology, April 2008, pages 15–19; Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, March 2008, pages 78–82; Mechanisms of Ageing and Development, January 2007, pages 92–105; and British Journal of Dermatology, December 2005, pages S13–S22).

Nude Skincare At-A-Glance
Strengths: Good water-soluble cleansers.
Weaknesses: Expensive; most of the products contain fragrance ingredients known to cause irritation; no sunscreens; no daily-use AHA or BHA products to exfoliate skin; no products to address the needs of those with acne or skin discolorations; the Replenishing Night Oil doesn't replenish anything; some products will see their natural ingredients become ineffective due to jar packaging.
United Kingdom–based Nude Skincare has made quite a splash in that part of the world. It was founded by "eco-entrepreneur" Bryan Meehan, owner of the U.K.'s Fresh and Wild organic grocery stores (their American parent company is Whole Foods). Now, in addition to selling healthy foods, he mixes them into cosmetics and sells them as well, which was a natural (pun intended) next step for Meehan. After all, it was only a matter of time before he noticed and took advantage of the fact that natural skin-care products sell well in health food stores, just as major grocery stores sell mass-market product lines. Thus, Nude Skincare was born, and according to Meehan, Nude Skincare is "the first luxury skincare line that is free from the chemicals your body would rather avoid." Regrettably, the only luxurious parts of Nude Skincare products are the prices.
The endless parade of natural or organic product lines and their endless claims of how pure and healthy their products are is exhausting and more fiction than fact. Much like antiwrinkle and anti-aging claims, the hype and misleading information about natural ingredients appear time and time again. It is important to reiterate that there are good and bad ingredients in both the natural and the synthetic realms. Plus, labeling something "natural" doesn't mean it is. But of course that didn't stop Nude Skincare, a company that claims to be all natural, but isn't. Regardless, this line claims to be all you need for skin, which isn't true either.
One look at Nude Skincare products' ingredient lists make it abundantly clear that the ingredients in their products are not all natural. Like many cosmetics companies, Nude Skincare attempts to get around the synthetic aspects of their ingredients by putting the natural source of their chemical-sounding ingredients in parenthesis. Describing dicaprylyl ether or lauryl alcohol as coming from coconut doesn't mean you can take that ingredient and make a piña colada; those ingredients are not found in nature. We're not saying that those ingredients are bad for skin, but misleading claims don't add up to good skin care; what counts is what works on your skin. Of course, plants have a place in skin care, but they also have drawbacks, although the latter fact seems to fall on deaf ears among those converted to natural and among those fear mongers who love to make women afraid of anything synthetic. Ironically, however, Nude Skincare also includes several natural ingredients that, unfortunately, have published, peer-reviewed research showing that our skin is better off without them!
Other than the high prices and the sleek, modern packaging, one aspect of this brand that has captured consumer and media attention is the claim that Nude Skincare products contain prebiotics and probiotics (i.e., microorganisms) designed to normalize the microflora of skin. In a cosmetic, neither the prebiotics nor the probiotics will stay alive and they must be alive to have any impact, at least that's the case when they are digested (i.e., yoghurt has live strains of bacteria). What is more significant is the limited research showing that topical application of bacteria strains has any effect on skin, for better or worse. Nude Skincare claims they have conducted clinical trials that show these products were highly successful, but we were told they weren't available for review. The company wouldn't send us any information to verify their study, so we have no way of knowing the details of their clinical tests.
What we know so far (again, from limited research) is that topical application may reduce skin inflammation brought on by immune system disorders and help skin grafts on burned areas heal faster, but that was sourced from living strains, not applied in a cosmetic skin-care product (Sources: International Wound Journal, February 2009, pages 73–81; and Der Hautarzt, Epublication, August 6, 2006).

(Rick Hickman / American Press)

By Warren Arceneaux / American Press
Immaculate Conception Cathedral celebrated its centennial with a crowning ceremony to honor Mary.
The cathedral joined Our Lady of Prompt Succor in New Orleans as the only sites of crowned images of Mary in Louisiana when The Most Rev. Carlo Maria Vigano, Apostolic Nuncio of the Holy See to the United States, uncovered the statue of Mary to display the crown that now adorns it.
"We give thanks for the many blessings this diocese has received through her intercessions," Vigano said.
"As we celebrate this jubilee year, of the dedication of this cathedral named in honor of the Immaculate Conception, we acknowledge Mary as our queen. Through our history, we know how powerful and how influential the role of a queen mother has been in the life of the people. This is especially true in the life of Jesus and Mary."
Bishop Glen Provost said the importance of Mary to the church must not be forgotten.
"For almost a century now, she has watched over our region, the joys and sorrows of its people, protected them in the time of relentless attack from violent storms in the Gulf," he said.
"(Vigano), you have reminded us of the devotion and gratitude that should be ours for Mary's constant vigilance. Fashioned from marble quarried in the area in Italy where Michelangelo took the stone for his masterpieces, and assembled by a humble Italian worker from the same quarry who emigrated here to Lake Charles, Mary watches over us still. This image symbolizes her providing centennial presence in an unbroken line of Catholic substance, centuries old. This we cannot forget, and to this we cannot be oblivious."
The current cathedral was built after the previous one, located on Ryan Street, was destroyed in the Great Fire of 1910. The crowning of Mary is a custom that dates back more than 1,500 years.

The big announcement at Tamashii Features vol. 4 at Hong Kong is the formal introduction of Bandai's new product line, the Perfect Model Series. As to what exactly that means, the line is composed of 12" action figures (read 1:6 scale) like Hot Toys or Medicom's Real Action Heroes. Originally the line was teased at the Tamashii Nation Winter 11 event last November, but now there are actual details surrounding what will compose the line. The line will feature a variety of properties, from animation, tokusatsu and even Star Wars. The line is a first for Bandai, as previous figures were done in conjunction with Medicom.
Initially on the planning block are C-3PO (which was originally introduced as a new Chogokin at SDCC) and R2-D2 of Star Wars, Tiger & Bunny's Wild Tiger and Barnaby Brooks Jr. in their suits as well as out of suit, Godzilla, and Akibaranger's Akiba Red. It's a very intriguing lineup to say the least but I just want to see how these will compare pricing wise with Hot Toys and RAH. I don't doubt that Bandai can put out something better than Medicom, but I want to see how the joints will hold up. Sadly, I won't know how that is until one is released.
There's no word of when they'll be released, but I figure that we'll get definitive news on the line at the Tamashi Nation Winter 12 event later this year. For now, it looks to be a promising line, let's just hope they deliver. There's plenty of images to showcase the line in the gallery below, so check it out and share your thoughts on this new way to execute your wallet.

Bantam Trailers Designed for Off-Street Parking
May 11, 2001
Filed under Trailer News
R-Vision Inc., a company that started the trend toward hybrid expandable trailers three
years ago, has taken yet another step in the growth of this active market niche with the
debut of a Bantam Garage Model travel trailer. The Bantam has a crank-up fiberglass roof
that gives it a lower profile on the road and in the garage. Fully equipped with
refrigerator, range and furnace, the garageable model sells for $10,000, similar to
high-end folding trailers. R-Vision has its headquarters at 2666 S. Country Club Road in
Warsaw, Indiana 46580; (219) 268-2111.

For the most impassioned Tea Partiers, it's becoming abundantly clear, 2 November is not an end but a beginning.
They have no intention of making their voices heard at the polling stations in the American midterm elections and then crawling back into obscurity.
An interesting piece in the Wall Street Journal looks at how groups are already planning their attacks on moderate conservative politicians after the elections are over.
Having had a number of energising and high-profile victories unseating centrist senators in primary votes earlier this year – the WSJ cites Robert Bennett of Utah, Mike Castle of Delaware and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska – they are now thinking about dispatching other Republicans who have committed the sin of working with Democrats in Congress to pass compromise bills on healthcare, taxes or other legislation.
This chimes with what I have been hearing in my travels so far on the trail of the activists. Last night I was at the monthly meeting of the Chicago Tea Party not so very far from Barack Obama's home.
There was little talk about Obama but a lot about how the fight had to be sustained beyond 2 November to teach wayward Republican politicians a lesson.
I talked to Dick Armey, the former senior Republican leader who is now a prominent part of the movement with his campaign FreedomWorks, about this ambition to change the party from within.
He said part of the joy of taking down high-profile Republicans is that it got other Congress figures to think again about what they are doing.
"Republicans have seen in the primaries established candidates lose their nominations in Utah and Alaska and so on, and they are starting to think they have to change their behaviour or they'll be next."
That sounds a little like blackmail to me – stop compromising with the Democrats or we will have you removed from office.
"No, no, no," Armey replied. "It's like, OK, you caught your older son misbehaving, you disciplined him well and your younger son says 'I had better change my behaviour or I'll be disciplined as well'. It's not blackmail."
The finer details of whether this is blackmail or not can be left to others.
But the certain outcome of all this is that the Tea Party thing is not likely to disappear after the midterms.
And the inevitable result of the movement's success is that Republicans are being relentlessly pushed to the right, and that the last vestiges of compromise that remain in America are in danger.

Winter Storage Suggestions... CT/Long Island Sound?
For various reasons, we're looking to bring Pelican to the Long Island Sound at the end of September. We're hoping to find a slip for October and the beginning of November, and then have her hauled and stored for the Winter, and relaunched in the Spring. For those who haven't met her, she's a Passport 40 - let's call her 40' LOA. We're looking to be no more than 2.5 - 3 hours from Albany, NY. Does anyone know of a decent marina with REASONABLE rates for Winter storage? Near Stamford, CT would be preferable (Stamford, Norwalk, Fairfield, Bridgeport, etc.), but I believe we're looking at very high rates there. The New London area gets kind of far away, but if the price is right... Thoughts?
Depends on what you call "reasonable" Over the last 10 years winter storage rates have been small what they have done is begin to nickle and dime the owners. Example, poppet's were included in the haul. Now we have to rent them from the yard. It used to be that the mast down and up were in the same bill. Now they are charged separately, once for down and once for up. On my last haul out they charged me to remove the boom and vang. Never saw that before. I just noticed that if you have the yard winterize your motor then starting battery removal and storage is mandatory. I think the list goes on. As for places to look that I think are reasonable is Yankee Marina in Portland CT. Up the river and across from Middletown. A do it yourself yard ( cause the mechanics are power oriented )
Yankee Boat Yard Home Page
I have not used this yard in a long time but I know people who still do.
Besides the CT river is beautiful in the fall.
I haul at Dutch Warf Boat Yard in Branford Connecticut. Owner is Paul Jacques. They have done fine work on my P50 and 30 years ago did fine work on my Hinckley Pilot. Small, family owned yard - good rates, great craftsmen if you need them. They will also haul and set up your boat and you can do as much or as little of the work that you wish. Branford is just East of New Haven - good access via road or train to New Haven.
203 483 8642. 70 Maple Street Branford, Ct. 06405 or email at:
Dave - I assume the CT River is navigable for a sailboat with a 54' clearance and 5'8" draft? Jim - I just dropped an e-mail to Dutch Wharf to get some pricing.
Anyone have any other suggestions?
Try Beacon Point Marina in Shelton CT. Up the Housitonic River. Come in with the tide and no problem. Last year was $45 per foot. If you end up there you can follow me up the river or I can come aboard as a pilot.
Also Milford Boat works in Milford Harbor is a good place and Brewer in Stratord. Both more money.
Why take it out? Why not leave it in? In Stamford proper, to go out of the water your real only choice is brewers. You can leave in the water at Brewers, Avalon, or Harbor Square. Plenty of Liveaboards at Avalon and Brewers to keep eyes on your boat, but Harbor Square is way more protected than either.
I also think that Portland is inside your 3 hour travel window. I live in Bristol CT and can get to Albany in 2 hours heading west. Portland is 30 minutes east of me.
Did you find a place for winter storage yet.
I think I might take Jim's suggestion and go to Dutch Wharf. They sound competent and seemed very interested in my business (i.e. gave me all the time I wanted on the phone). At $4.10 per sq. ft. the price isn't so bad either. The places closer to Stamford CT were hundreds of dollars more for the storage.
I can't recall if I've asked this question before - how bad are the winds on the sound during the storage season? Every place is recommending that I store with the mast down, and they all put surcharges on the storage price for storing with the mast up. On Champlain and in Annapolis, I never had anyone push to store with the mast down. I know it's safer to store it with the mast down, but is there a reason why they push so hard on the Long Island Sound to do it?
I don't think LI Sound is more windy in Winter than Lake Champlain, but probably more than Annapolis. That being said, the issue - as you know - is safety. With the boat immovable in a cradle, the stress on the step and surounding areas is pretty unconventional (can be considerable) when the mast moves about in a stationary boat. I'm going to Dutch Warf on Thursday AM to go over some winter stuff and can push on the subject if you'd like. Send me a PM.

The Russian connection: See all our coverage | Read about our investigation
If you want to get a sense of the tone of John Yoo's response to the Justice Department's Office of Professional Responsibility report finding he was guilty of "professional misconduct," take a look at this excerpt from his lawyer's letter to the OPR:
[The Office of Legal Counsel]'s job was to give legal advice based on the facts as presented by the Central Intelligence Agency, not to assume the role (as OPR now has) of Junior Varsity CIA. OPR appears to think that the proper role of OLC attorneys was to reweigh the operational facts adduced by the CIA and play roulette with the lives of thousands of Americans.
That's right: any questioning of the CIA's reliance on the 'ticking time bomb' scenario amounts to risking the lives of thousands of Americans. Yoo's lawyer, by the way, is Miguel Estrada. Yes, that one.

Short Easy Bobs For Spring, Light And Layered
When Spring is in the air you want your hairstyle to be as warm and easy as the weather. A short easy Bob is the perfect cut for Spring.
The Bob is a cut that has never gone out of style, and this Spring, the look of the Bob will be hotter than ever.
Many women find Spring to be one of their busiest times of the year.
Finally after being cooped up throughout the long winter months, you are free to be outdoors enjoying all that Spring has to offer.
There are gardens to plant, and paths to walk parties to attend and flower to smell. What women do not have time for are complicated hairstyles.

Low Profile Flow-Thru Separator
Product Announcement from SWECO, A Business Unit of M-I L.L.C.
The Sweco Low Profile Flow-Thru Separator (LPFT) allows for high capacity wet or dry scalping in a compact, low headroom design. Dual motors mounted on opposite sides of the LPFT allow unrestricted flow of material and create the 3-D motion that allows oversize material full discharge, keeping the screen clear for maximum product flow. Its low headroom requirements (as little as 15 inches) and straight flow design, allow the LPFT to fit easily into existing product lines without reworking the entire system.
For separating oversize particles from a material that flows easily through a screen, a single-motor low-profile separator is a good choice. However, if you need to remove oversize particles from a material with difficult flow characteristics, a dual-motor separator can provide higher capacity. The dual-motor machine's three-dimensional vibratory motion not only speeds separation of hard-to-screen materials, but this separator can have a smaller screen diameter than a single-motor unit. The smaller diameter can save floor space in your plant and make replacement screens cheaper over the separator's service life. Any screen deblinding device, including inexpensive screen cleaners, will work with the unit. The dual-motor separator also has a smaller motor size than a single-motor unit. These factors reduce the dual-motor separator's capital and operating costs, in many cases making this separator separator the lowest-cost option for achieving higher screening capacity.

Maniglier is the last surviving student of Matisse. Her original work hang on every wall of the gallery and some are for sale and not at a budget price...
The old stone building, the sugar estate surrounded by sugar cane fields make this an idyllic setting. The service at the restaurant was fantastic with three staff members constantly catering to our needs. The food was extremely expensive even by north American (Canadian) standards but it is worth every penny. Don't look for this place in a tourist brochure as they do not advertise widely. As a matter of fact, you must call ahead and book an appointment.
This was definitely one the highlights of our trip... See the photos and judge for yourself!

What did you do over winter break?
January 23, 2014
When you mention winter break at a university most people conjure images of going home and spending time with family and maybe even a sleigh ride. No sleigh rides for five Bradley students who came in on their own time to participate in a collaborative research project with Professors Ted Fleming and Joe Degitz. Fleming from biology and Degitz from nursing have teamed up to study "Access Port Disinfection As a Method to Decrease Blood Stream Infections".
The purpose of this study is to better define practices utilized for accessing intravenous (IV) catheters by determining if a 15 second scrub of needless access ports is adequate to prevent microbes from entering the fluid path. Further analysis will assist in determining appropriateness of antiseptic solution. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) there are an estimated 41,000 central line-associated blood stream infections (CLABSI) each year in hospitalized patients. Hospital acquired infections (HAI) increase costs of care in terms of dollars and mortality. Needless injection ports on IV catheters, when improperly utilized, allow for organisms to enter the fluid path and enter the bloodstream. Colonization of needless injection ports through multiple manipulations has been identified as a possible cause of many CLABSI. Contamination of the injection port by contact with hands or contaminated fluids has been identified by the CDC as a route of infection contributing to CLABSI. There are no distinct descriptive guidelines for accessing needless access ports despite the potential for infection. The goal is to better define these practices.
Health science majors Taylor Schweigert, Hannah Huffman, & Caitlin Pribble along with nursing majors Christina Moehn & Kate Dwyer helped identify and count bacterial colonies growing on the test plates and recorded vital information needed to complete this study. Participation in research helps keep Bradley students at the forefront of new technology and practices.

Tiffany Palmer ...
That is very under priced for such a large cake, even if you are a beginner. It's not just the time it will take you to do this cake, but all the ingredients, time from your family, delivery, the time it will take to stack/dowel/assemble/etc. Also do you feel like this is something you want to take on? I think that is the most important question. A 5 tier cake of that size is a large undertaking. How many servings are they looking for? Right now I have servings starting at $3.50 per serving and price goes up depending on design. Pricing is the hardest thing but if you under price yourself now, you will regret it later (talking from personal experience). Also I never include delivery in my price for the cake. I calculate it separately. Right now I charge a flat fee of $30 for the first 15 miles and .55cents every mile thereafter. Be sure you calculate mileage there and back. Gas is high right now and you have to take that in to account as well. I can understand you not feeling right charging so much as you're a beginner, but $250 is entirely too low. <3

Spring might be warmer than winter, but it's still cold some days. And while fashion was never about being sensible...it's delightful surprise when one can be warm and not be bundled to the sky. Plus cashmere is so...spring ready to begin with.

Unless you live in an isolation tank, it's no secret that Apple is hosting a big media event on September 9 in Cupertino where we will likely see an impressive list of announcements from the likes of Tim Cook, Phil Schiller, and Craig Federighi. Apple isn't saying what they have in store, so I came up with some of my ideas and I turned to the TMO staff to see what they're expecting, too.
Apple's September media event will have lots of big announcements
The rumor mill has been working overtime churning out reports and photos, so we have some idea what may be on Apple's reveal list, but the company is known for its secrecy and surprises. Throwing together leaks, rumors, speculation, and Apple's track record, here's what we're expecting to see on September 9.
iPhone 6
The timing along with the plethora of leaks and rumors makes the iPhone 6 practically a sure thing. It also looks like the new model will ship with two screen sizes: 4.7-inches and 5.5-inches. It'll also likely come with a synthetic sapphire glass display surface made at Apple's own plant, sport a more powerful Apple-designed processor, include a better camera, along with better microphones and built-in speakers.
Just as it has with previous iPhone launches, reports that Apple will include Near Field Communication (NFC) for sure this time are making the rounds. If so, that would probably be part of a system for making payments using our iPhones as digital wallets.
NFC doesn't seem likely since Apple has stayed away from it so far. What's more likely is that Apple has developed its own digital wallet and mobile payment system that relies on WiFi, Bluetooth and apps -- much like it has done with the Apple Store app.
We haven't seen hide nor hair of the rumored iWatch, yet it seems all but certain it'll be part of Apple's big announcement. The iWatch is said to be a smartwatch device we'll wear on our wrists that also collects health and fitness-related data such as how far we walk each day, heart rate, and sleep patterns.
The general consensus is that the iWatch will be worn on our wrist, although the TMO staff has questioned whether or not Apple will limit their products in that way. I've even gone so far as to speculate that Apple is working on smart sensors that track biometric data based on where they're placed on your body.
Apple introduced HealthKit as a feature in iOS 8 that lets third-party developers tie into a unified system for storing data collected from fitness trackers and other health monitoring devices. Users control what -- if any -- data they share with healthcare and insurance providers, and they can view the data from the Health, which is also included with iOS 8.
We'll likely see new HealthKit partnership announcements, and a mention of products that support both HealthKit and the Health app. So far, we know that the Mayo Clinic, Kaiser Permanente, and Nike are on board, and reports claim Apple is negotiating with Mount Sinai, Johns Hopkins, UnitedHealth Group, and Humana.
Another iOS 8 feature Apple touted at WWDC was HomeKit, which lets users control smart home-connected devices from their iPhone. The idea is that instead of using multiple apps to control your programmable LED lights, outlets and thermostat, you use a single app that manages settings in groups and integrates with Siri voice control, too.
Apple's Craig Federighi offered up an example where you tell Siri it's time for bed, and the lights in your house automatically dim, the front door locks, and the thermostat lowers temperature in your home.
Apple has already said companies such as Honeywell, Schlage, Philips, netatmo, Cree, and iHome and several others are on board. We'll probably see more names added to that list, and we'll get to see many of those products demonstrated either during the presentation or immediately after when Apple gives media attendees hands-on time with its new gear.

The office will house two centers and a number of specialty programs. The Small Business Development Center and the Procurement Technical Assistance Center will work to provide integrated resources and consulting services to businesses in Indiana that have fewer than 500 employees.
Medaryville Rescinds Letters of Mowing Ordinance Violation
The Medaryville resident who was facing a number of violations of the town's mowing ordinance has been let off the hook after he reportedly cleaned up the properties and is now in compliance. According to town council member Derrick Stalbaum, resident Brian Capouch has been hard at work over the last week or so getting the properties cleaned up and compliant with the ordinance.
Utility Bill Corrected for Reageant Chemical
The Knox Board of Public Works approved a utility bill credit for Reagent Chemical.
Knox City Clerk-Treasurer Jeff Houston explained that a coding error occurred and the industry was billed $397.74 more than necessary. A decimal point in the wrong spot was reportedly to blame and was picked up by the staff.
Number of Events Planned for Pulaski County 4-H Fair This Weekend
The 2013 Pulaski County 4-H Fair continues today with a number of exhibits, programs and entertainment planned throughout the day.
Entries for the goats, poultry, rabbits, sheep and swine livestock competition start the day off at 5 a.m. and run til 10 a.m., with open class exhibits entered from 8:30 a.m. to 11 a.m. A meeting of livestock exhibitors is scheduled for 10:30 a.m. at the 4-H Show Arena, and poultry judging will take place at noon.
Fireworks Celebrations Planned for Independence Day
Independence Day is approaching and a number of communities in the area are planning to commemorate the holiday with fireworks and other celebrations. State law also lengthens the amount of time allowed for citizens to discharge fireworks; as opposed to only allowing fireworks until 11 p.m., fireworks may be discharged until midnight on July 4. In Knox, Plymouth and Winamac, fireworks can be discharged between 10 a.m. and midnight, while many other communities adhere to state law.
Michigan City Man Sentenced on Unemployment Insurance Fraud
A Michigan City man was sentenced in a Northern Indiana U.S. District Court to a charge of Unemployment Insurance Fraud, a Class C felony.
Terry W. Smith, 44, purposely defrauded the system by collecting unemployment insurance benefits while working full-time.
Fraudulent Activity Suspected at LaPorte Banks
The LaPorte City Police Department is investigating fraud activity at two banks.
Two female suspects reportedly attempted to obtain cash advances for large sums of money off stolen or fraudulent credit cards.
Starke County Jail Site Receives Zoning Variance
The Starke County Jail project has cleared another obstacle: obtaining a zoning variance to proceed with constructing the new facility at the corner of State Road 8 and County Road 550 East. According to Planning Administrator Bruce Williams, the property is currently zoned as M-1; that is, Light Manufacturing, which poses a problem for the construction of the jail.
Knox Fire Chief Offers Fire Safety Tips
With the many house fires that have been fought in the area recently, fire safety is one thing to keep in mind.
Fifty-three fire fatalities have been reported so far this year, compared to 46 total last year. Knox-Center Township Fire Chief Kenny Pfost notes that these deaths could have been prevented if a working smoke alarm was present.
"Most home fire casualties occur at night when people are sleeping," said Pfost. "The smoke and toxic gases generated by a fire induce a deep sleep and decreases a person's chance of survival. It's important that every sleeping room has a smoke detector and one placed outside of every sleeping room. You also need a smoke detector for every level of the home."
Pulaski County Fair Underway This Weekend
The Pulaski County Fair kicks off this weekend with a number of exciting events planned throughout the week until the fair ends on Friday, July 5. Unfortunately, due to the large amounts of flooding that have occurred recently, the Truck and Tractor Pull event has been postponed until late summer or early fall. On top of that, the 4-H Horse and Pony Show planned for Sunday has been moved off the grounds and officials have postponed the contesting planned for Wednesday.
Despite that, there are a number of fun events planned for the next several days. Judging of 4-H projects will take place Saturday at 1 p.m., followed by the 4-H Dog Show at 9 a.m. The 2013 4-H Royalty will also be crowned on Saturday at 3 p.m.
Henry F. Schricker Library Addition Should Be Complete by September
The construction of an addition at the Henry F. Schricker Public Library in Knox is still moving along right on schedule, according to Director Sheila Urwiler. She told WKVI that the construction workers have finished putting a roof over the new young adult area, and they are now beginning work on installing windows.
The new wing is looking more and more complete each day, and Urwiler said they're still on track for completion toward the end of August or early September. The crew will soon finish putting in the windows and then the masonry work will take priority as they improve the exterior of the addition, matching the look of the existing library. Workers will also be working on the electrical infrastructure next week as well.
Knox Street Superintendent Gives Update to Board of Works
Knox Street Superintendent Jeff Borg reported to the Board of Public Works that they are active in eradicating mosquitoes but conditions have to be right to do so.
Borg explained that calm winds and clear nights are just right for spraying for mosquitoes. Regular spraying times have been hampered due to the weather this season, but crews are making efforts to rid the city of the pesky bugs. They are also applying larvicide to standing ponds, swamps and marsh areas as often as possible.
Eastern Pulaski School Board Moves Forward With Superintendent Search

Call-Out Rescheduled for North Judson Lions Club
The North Judson Lions Club call-out didn't quite have the turnout expected, but that doesn't mean the Lions Club isn't coming to town. Connie Roe, who was involved in the coordination of the call-out, said they are still planning to organize a Lions Club in North Judson; it's just a matter of finding the right time.
Pulaski County's German Fest Set for Aug. 10

State Officials Offer Tips to Prevent Drowning This Summer
It's the time of the year when people love to get in the water, visiting local pools, lakes and reservoirs for recreational water activities. The Indiana Department of Child Services and the Department of Natural Resources are reminding parents and guardians to ensure they keep an eye on children playing in or near bodies of water.
In 2011, 11 Hoosier children drowned, and Mary Beth Bonaventura, director of the IDCS, said lack of supervision is mostly to blame. Children, she said, don't usually have an awareness of the risks around water, and it's up to adults to supervise them and ensure their safety.
Teenagers Arrested on Drug Charges
Two LaPorte County teenagers have been arrested by the LaPorte County Metro Operations Unit on drug charges.
18-year-old Matthew E. Jageman and 19-year-old Brandon L. Williams were both arrested without incident and are being held in the LaPorte County Jail with bonds set at $25,000.
Jageman has been charged with Dealing in a Schedule 1 Controlled Substance (heroin), Possession of a Schedule 1 Controlled Substance, Possession of a Schedule III Controlled Substance and Possession of a Schedule IV Controlled Substance. Williams has been charged with Aiding, Inducing, or Causing an Offense, Possession of a Schedule I Controlled Substance and Possession of a Schedule IV Controlled Substance.
The pair will appear for their initial hearing in LaPorte County Circuit Court on Friday, June 28.

How does it work?
Adult hula hooping isn't all play, it's a fast calorie burner which provides a tiring tummy-toning workout. You also can't just run to your nearest toy store and grab a hoop - workout hula hoops are bigger and weighted, usually weighing around 2 pounds. The extra weight on the hoop allows it to circle your body more slowly, so if your hoop keeps falling to the ground, grab a heavier one and it will become easier.
The key tip for making hooping work for you is to stand with your feet in front of one another, rather than side to side, and to thrust your hips with the hoop rather than circling it with your body. Hula hooping is not just for the waist either; professional hoopers can circle hoops on their hands, necks, and even their knees. Once you learn how to coordinate your body to circle the hoop it becomes very easy to graduate to other parts of your body. You may also learn how to whirl multiple hoops in time to music.
As an adult you'll find that hooping does a lot more for you than you ever realised. Like [[treatment/pole-dancing/| pole dancing]] it involves a lot of sensual circling of your hips, which can help improve your sex life. It's also said to be a form of meditation with the rhythm of the hoops lulling you into a relaxed state.
What's more, going to a class is bound to be a giggle which is a workout in itself and good fun too.
Is it for me?
Anyone can pick up a hoop and learn the basics very quickly, however if you're pregnant or have a diagnosed back condition it is advised to consult your doctor before starting classes.
At first hula hooping can be slightly painful as you're exercising parts of your body that often don't get used and the hoop can cause slight bruising around your abdomen until your skin gets tougher. It is also an exercise that requires a good sense of humour; hooping is considered a performance art as well as an exercise with origins in the circus, so you could be shimmying hips next to a lot of wild and wacky characters.

IT service company ITSqc spins out from Carnegie Mellon
Information Technology Services Qualifications Center is spinning off from Carnegie Mellon University to become ITSqc LLC in order to extend research started at the university.
ITSqc started in 2000 as a consortium of information technology companies and university researchers to study best-practices within the information technology service provider industry. Since then, the organization has developed models and a certification process that can be used by clients and providers to ensure that the right expertise is brought on board and services meet client needs.
"The research was done and the models were created and focus shifted from creating and gathering, which universities are great at, we produced the models and now it's a more commercial adoption issue," said company director Jeff Perdue of the decision to spin-off.
The intellectual property was licensed in October and the new company started Jan. 1, Perdue said. The company has three employees: Perdue, an associate professor in the Institute for Software Research within the CMU School of Computer Science; Jane Siegel, senior systems scientist in the Institute for Software Research and the Human-Computer Interaction Institute at CMU; and Bill Hefley, faculty at the Katz School of Business at the University of Pittsburgh.
Hefley was previously with the Institute for Software Research.
Some of the companies involved in the consortium include IBM and Accenture, Perdue said. ITSqc already has six organizations that have licensed the models and are working with clients, he said.
"The evolution of the Internet and the growth of the world's telecommunications infrastructure now enables companies to seek out IT expertise from providers anywhere on the globe," said Raj Reddy, chairman of the ITSqc Advisory Board in a written statement. "But without a set of commonly accepted best practices, many providers will routinely fail to deliver on their promises and potential clients will have no basis for comparing prospective providers. By establishing these best practices, the ITSqc has helped to bring order to the outsourcing marketplace."

Mayor Annise Parker says her office has known for months that Macy's days at 1110 Main were numbered. But the company wants to stay downtown, with a smaller, reconfigured store.
"Macy's is losing the lease, and the owner of that piece of property wants to build something else on that site. That's a really good thing for downtown. But we believe that losing that big chunk of retail downtown is not a good thing for the long-term future prospects of Houston. And, so, we're going to see what we can do in that relocation — looking for a new site."
Parker says the new Downtown Retail Task Force isn't just about helping Macy's. It's also about providing more essential services for the thousands of people who live in the area.
"The rooftops have finally come in, or beginning to come in, and will really jump forward in the next year. But you have to have the retail to go with it. And that will beget more interest in people living downtown."
The task force is made up mostly of developers, along with retail experts, and people with deep knowledge of downtown Houston. The mayor says the focus will not be on offering incentives to lure more businesses. Rather, the group will talk with existing businesses to find out what works, what doesn't work, and what can be done to make downtown more retail-friendly.

President Thabo Mbeki considers himself an "Aids dissenter" who allowed the Cabinet to overcome his beliefs that Aids was part of a conspiracy by the white world to destroy black Africans. He urged his biographer, Mark Gevisser, to read a 100 page paper secretly authored by Mbeki several years ago which he distributed anonymously to members of the african National Congress. The paper compared Aids scientists to latter-day Nazi concentration-camp doctors and portrayed b lack people who accepted orthodox Aids science as "self-repressed" victims of a slave mentality. The paper described the HIV/Aids thesis as entrenched in "centuries-old-white racial beliefs and concepts about Africans." According to Mbeki, whites are trying to convince Africans that HIV/Aids is a major problem in order to divert attention from issues like globalisation, unemployment, and racism. He accused those who opposed his views like Nelson Mandela as being in the pay of drug companies.
There is sadness in describing the insane ideas of a prominent African leader who played a vital role in establishing democracy in South Africa. Somehow, this intelligent man got caught up in conspiracy theories and could not escape the corrosive effects of racism which warped his way of thinking. In the end, it is estimated millions have died due to his refusal to implement an Aids program. Even today, the Aids campaign in South Africa is caught up in controversy since Mbeki's health minister shares his strange ideas.

JKU grinding with lockers
I think I understand what is going on now but wanted to toss out my situation to see if anyone has any other ideas that I am missing. I will try to keep it short as possible...
Bought an 08 JKU, stock drivetrain(6 spd, 3.73), DD + went wheelin' for the first time a month or so ago and am totally hooked....
Looking at upgrades (lift, wheels, maybe locker?) but didn't have a ton of money to invest right now...
So... found an 07 JKU (same color even..) similar setup except it already has some nice PC wheels, new 35" tires, leveling kit, Detroit rear locker, OX selectable front locker and 5.38 gears, 6-spd. Pricewise it was an even swap for mine so I ended up buying it... (Haven't sold the 08 yet)
The road manners of the new one is getting to me a bit. The gear ratio is a bit crazy for DD duties, but swapping that is getting me into the $1k+ range again.
Also, the shifting is much more touchy/sloppy than my other one. From reading this sounds like it is the locker on the rear (combined with the gearing). But I get more clunks and can't shift anywhere near as fast without getting a grind.
So my questions:
- Should removing the locker help with the grinding/clunky feeling? If so I think I could give that up wheelin, and just keep the selectable front. How much might that cost?
- Does that sound more like a tranny issue? In which case would it be worth swapping the diff/wheels/etc to the 08, which then would have better gearing for DD now as well. But that will probably cost quite a bit as well. (The 08 also has 3 yr left on warranty which is nice)
- Any other changes I might have missed?
I know, pay to play and in the long run I don't mind making the bigger changes, but for now I was looking for ways to get the DD a bit better.
Wheelin' it is great though!! So maybe I just deal with it and be happy :-)
4351 Attachment(s)
Time for 40's :D
The Detroit Locker will ratchet on corners and they do at times click and make noise, thats just their nature....
To change it out, you will have to buy a new carrier assembly to replace the locker, that will not be cheap$$$$...
Bottom line is you are going to have to make up your mind what you want to do and what you want in your vehicle.
GRINDING should not be happening with the Lockers .... That is a Clutch /Trans. issue or maybe worn shifter assembly...
Good luck ..... "BH"
That is kind of what I was figuring, the cost to swap anything is $$ so I just need to decide what I want to live with...
I will look more at the grinding from the trans perspective, maybe have the local shop take a look too. Keep my fingers crossed there isn't a major issue.
Explain your "grinding" sound or noise ...... When does it happen ?
Do you hear it when you push in the clutch and try to shift ? Is it like the trans fails to go into the next gear or shift gate ????
Like your grinding the gears trying to shift or is it a different sound ?
Just curious when this sound comes in....
Could be the PO ran heck out of it and trashed the trans syncro's....
Hi, I was wondering that too so on the way home I paid a little more attention.
When it is colder (first 10 or so mins) every time I push in the clutch in gear I get a clank. That didn't happen after highway driving for about 15 minutes ...
It shifts into the gears fine (no resistance shifting) but sometimes going into usually 2nd or 3rd I get a grind sound like I didn't have the clutch depressed all the way, though I do. It is a quick grind sound.
I was wondering if that is a clutch issue then?
It has 42k miles on it presently, not sure how long the diff swap has been on it....

Dez Bryant Has Pressure To Bare.
Dez Bryant is uniquely gifted. A respected NFL player. On a high profile Cowboys team. He's also a grown man. It's his job to find his way. A good start would be to consult trusted, time tested, true friends. Ones who knew him before the notoriety. Ones he respects. Accumulate a good amount of counsel. Ultimately devise a plan. Engage that plan to affect being the best person possible. On and off the field. Problem solved,......lol,........if only it were that simple.
I have no problem with Dez. He a young man finding himself in unfamiliar territory professionally. It's obvious he's strong willed and impulsive. Things that can make or break a career. The trick is getting Dez to apply those same habits as a positiv, sooner rather than later. I hold the utmost confidence. Dez will figure it out. When he does? He has a good chance to make Canton someday.
Dez's protective veneer will help fend off hostile attacks against his career. Who's sole purpose is to incite unsavory comments and/or gestures. He will soon learn he doesn't have to join every invitation to events of no consequence. It's OK for Dez to grow at his own pace. Never know how things will turn out. I seriously believe, it'll all turn out for the best. Glad to have Dez on the team.

The all-mountain Rossignol PMC ski poles offer sleek looks and low weight to those skiers who are ready to tear up the mountain. The Aluminum Alloy 5086 is commonly used in the construction of ship hulls (due to stress corrosion cracking resistance).

With their contoured polyurethane grip that ensures a secure, comfortable hold even when wet and the nylon straps with adjustable buckles keep poles wrapped around your wrist, so no excuses.

What are the best grooming tools to use on a Welsh Corgi?

I have a 'Furminator knock off that was half the cost of the brand name and works as well. A Shedding blade also works well and is dirt cheap. It's an odd looking loop of flat metal with shallow zig-zag edges and a handle. Looks like it's for beating eggs or something.
I also have a flea comb. It does triple duty as a shedding comb, and tick finder as well as fleas (well, never had any fleas).
Snickers answered on 6/7/11. Helpful? / 1
We have a Furminator that works wonders. The best thing that I have found so far for lots of hair.
Zoey answered on 6/7/11. Helpful? / 1
for shedding I ordered online an undercoat rake.The undercoat rake won't penetrate the skin and the old hair gently comes out.
and in the non shedding months if I have to brush her coat I use a soft bristle horse paddle brush.
Dieta answered on 6/8/11. Helpful? / 1
I am a dog groomer and the furminator is a great choice, also you can get a carding tool, they are very useful and will help keep your dogs coat shiny, less dead skin, and will strip any dead coat away.

Date of Stay: October, 2015
The park was quiet, clean, not crowded. I love the sound of helicopters and enjoy seeing them. The skeet shooting was on the weekend so wasn't troublesome. We could not get our satellite to work, but that was okay as we watched the numerous deer instead. Lovely little spot.
Date of Stay: September, 2010
The park was level and not bumpy which is important to me. The laundry room was clean and had plenty of washers and dryers and a change machine. It was disconcerting to be located so close to a petroleum storage facility; however, it was nice that all the travelers were located in a different area than the monthly rate residents. This is not a destination RV park, but I was okay with it for an overnight or two.
Date of Stay: September, 2010
The park is okay although the highway changed to a gravel road almost immediately after coming off the interstate. The actual entry into the park is very bumpy. There were potholes that necessitate going about 2 mph. I would not stay here again because I am worried about breaking an axle. The whole, no cable TV was irritating although a few local channels could be picked up. We used our satellite but couldn't get Sunday night football on NBC. The employees are friendly and told me where to find a local runza restaurant.

Best Buy Has to Answer to Amy Poehler In Its Super Bowl Spot
A highly inquisitive Amy Poehler stars in Best Buy's Super Bowl ad, putting the company's no-commission retail staff through the ringer.
"What's LTD; is it contagious?" is just one of many questions Amy Poehler has for the good people of Best Buy in the electronics and appliances hub's Super Bowl spot.
Created by Crispin Porter + Bogusky, the fast-paced new ad finds the indefatigable comedy star hammering a stoic store employee with a barrage of wide-ranging questions about the selection of products on hand. Whereas last year's Super Bowl ad stressed the innovators who make Best Buy's myriad devices possible, this year's goes for pure entertainment value, while still showing off the goods.
