School House Ridge
The area around Harpers Ferry is rich in American history and scenic beauty. In recent years, conservation and historic preservation groups have worked to protect Civil War battlefields around Harpers Ferry by adding them to Harpers Ferry National Historical Park. One of the most historic and beautiful of these is School House Ridge, where, on September 15, 1862, Confederate General Stonewall Jackson accepted the surrender of 12,500 Union troops, the largest capture of Federal forces during the entire war. Since 2003, TPL has helped add nearly 170 acres of the School House Ridge battlefield to the national park.

Since 1972, The Trust for Public Land has protected more than 3.3 million acres and completed more than 5,400 park and conservation projects.

Led by a public propensity for racketeering and extortion, forgery and counterfeiting, Texas is the 13th most corrupt state in the union, according to a study today on The Daily Beast. It cited recent investigations into extortion through a development scheme tied to the Dallas City Hall as one example.
Tennessee is our nation's most corrupt state, followed by Virginia, Mississippi, Delaware and North Carolina, according to the study. Our neighbor to the north, Oklahoma, came in at number 10.
The Daily Beast created databases from the Department of Justice and FBI and weighted equally five categories, including public corruption, racketeering and extortion, forgery and counterfeiting, fraud and embezzlement. Texas ranked in the top 15 in the racketeering and forgery categories and 27th in overall public corruption.
The study is a companion to a column by Richard J. Tofel warning that diminishing coverage of statehouses by the traditional press is an invitation to corrosive corruption across the country. Tofel, general manager of the investigative, Pulitzer Prize-winning website ProPublica, says hope for holding state governments accountable may lie in nonprofit websites. Over the past few years, groups like ProPublica, the Franklin Center for Government and Public Integrity, Texas Watchdog and others have put experienced journalists to work reporting on corruption at the national, state and local levels, building on the work of earlier nonprofit news business models such as the Center for Public Integrity and the Poynter Institute.
Editor's note: Texas Watchdog conducts training for the Franklin Center.

Get great-value Car Servicing in Walsall with Who Can Fix My Car.
Excellent service by friendly staff will be using them again if I need too
Excellent service throughout.. Very reasonable quote (1/3 of the price quoted by the garage which failed the MOT) and a quality job. Advised of additional work needed and evidenced it, carried it out with minimal increase to original quote. Made an error in costing (in my favour) and honoured it despite my insistence I'd happily pay. I can't fault the guys at M8, they're honest and reliable and take pride in carrying out a top job.
Spot on, quick appointment, very reasonable price, great service, really can't fault them at all! Thank you, iv found my new garage!
Good Guy, Very fair and helpful...thanks David
Thanks for the efficient and effective way that you treated my repair and maintenance of my car both by your mechanics and by your excellent and generous price quote.
Diagnostic test was completed and engine management light went off. Was a minor fault, but they did say bring it back if the light comes back on free of charge. The light has come back on and I will return at the weekend so it can be checked again.
All fine, no problems, would recommend
Had my clutch finally give up just after Christmas so looked around for a good price ....also needed a new alternator belt....Booked in first day back after new year, they identified a couple of issues but didnt feel like I was been bounced into getting work done that could wait . Got the additional bits fixed that needed fixing at a reasonable price ....Was concerned about going to a garage I've never been to before (small 2 man operation) but can honestly say if asked to recommend a garage they will be at the top of my list.
Quick and excellent service will definitely use again and highly recommended
Very good I will recommend this garage
They were not helpful, in anyway, who said they good , back street
Great customer service from zaman
Higly reccomend this garage. Did the car check,and let me know.And charge for job less. Very frendly customer service,no hidden prices.
Brilliant service from Sara and Adam. Great communication and speedy service. Would definitely recommend.
Adam and his team were outstanding! We had substantial damage from a van reversing into our brand new car, heavily denting and scraping 3 side panels. Adam's team have done a truly tremendous job - it's like new again, you can't tell the difference and at a fraction of the price quoted by the dealership. Top job! Great communication from start to finish, returning the vehicle fully valeted. A fantastic service, highly recommend this place, well done!
Brilliant service very happy

Fantastic, quick reponse, came out the next day, will be recommending to friends and family!
Briiliant from start to finish.He was running late and kept me informed all the way,would recommmend this mechanic highly.Quick and efficiant
Great friendly, knowledgeable service. And did the job at my place of work. Highly recommended
They diagnosed the problem for my window and told me a new regulator would fix the problem which it did as i bought one and worked perfectly fine. I also asked if they could fit my rear brake hubs and shoes to which they told me straight away that they could do. All in all very friendly staff and great customer service.
The car was in for a winter check however a number of issues were found and I was contacted and advised which jobs were a priority; I am not mechanically minded however the explanation was given in terms I could easily understand I authorized certain jobs and was informed they could be done that afternoon. I cannot fault the work that was done; all parts that were changed were kept for my inspection. This garage is local to me and I will continue to use them in the future. They are friendly and knowledgeable and give excellent advice. Totally recommend them.
Great service- I am really happy - and a good price. Kelly's delightful and so helpful. And friendly!
Made to feel very welcome on arrival; advised of length of time job would take and contacted as soon as vehicle was ready for collection. Would recommend to friends and family.

German Shepherd Rescues Abandoned Baby in Park
Tuesday, November 5, 2013
The meaning of the name Jade is that of a precious stone thought in some cultures to guard against certain maladies. Apparently, one dog in Great Britain took her name seriously last week.
A German Shepherd named Jade was walking with her pet parent, Roger Wilday, in a park in Stechford, Birmingham, last week when Jade went to sniff out some bushes.
When Wilday went to investigate, he was shocked to discover that Jade had found a newborn baby girl inside a discarded carrier bag from a toy store.
Wilday at first thought his dog had encountered a bag of kittens. "If she had been there overnight, I think she might have died," Wilday told the BBC. "I think my dog saved the baby's life. I'm very proud of her."
Wilday called a friend who called the police. They told Wilday to pick the baby up and wait for them. They believed the baby to be about 24 hours old when she was found, but she had only been in the park for about 30 minutes, they estimated.
The newborn was taken to a hospital where she is recovering. The identity of the baby or her mother is still unknown, so what are the caretakers calling the baby?
Jade, of course.
Editor's Note: Submitted photo of Jade first appeared on the Daily Mail.
What do you think of the baby being named after the dog that rescued her?

Senators question person who requested concealed carry permit holders list
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. - Missouri senators questioned the person responsible for requesting a list of personal information for more than 160,000 residents.
Social Security Administration agent Kevin Schilb testified under oath in front of a Senate committee Wednesday.
He claimed he requested the list of all concealed carry permit holders in the state in order to find cases of fraud.
Schilb said they were checking all permit holder to see if they were receiving disability benefits.
However, senators do not believe the permit holds and fraud coincide with one another.
"So how were you going to make that determination of who in your words had a true mental disability?" Sen. Kurt Schaefer questioned.
"Through a criminal investigation," replied Schilb.
The state willingly gave the SSA the information on two discs with the full list of permit holders.
"I cannot believe it, the level of irresponsibleness (sic) on behalf of the state of Missouri is unbelievable and I'm still wrapping my head around that," Sen. Schaefer said.
Schilb told the committee the information was never shared and never looked at due to technical difficulties.

Doctor insights on:
Chlor Trimeton
Can I buy OTC chlor-trimeton?
Yes: Chlortrimeton is available as an over the counter medication and is available in a number of different doses. It can also be found in combination with decongestant medication. ...Read more
Can I take chlor-trimeton and benedryl ?
Yes, but...: ...The combination will likely make you very sleepy. If you are needing 2 medications that are essentially the same to be able to control your symptoms, you should instead talk to your doctor to try other safer alternatives. ...Read more
Has taking chlor-trimeton been just as effective for anyone?
Effective: Chlor-trimeton is the brand name for chlorpheneramine. This is a very effective anti-allergic pill. Its one side effect is sleepiness which varies from one person to another. It is equally, maybe more effective than the prescription, branded types which only have the advantage of causing less sleepiness. ...Read more
Chlor-trimeton best for allergies?
Can be used but: A good antihistamine but can be very sedative. ...Read more
Do you take chlor-trimeton for allergies daily?
No: It is to sedative. I would take something like Claritin (loratadine) or zyrtec or Allegra if needed. ...Read more
Does chlor-trimeton work well as a allergy medi?
It is an allergy med: Like Benadryl (diphenhydramine) Chlor-Trimeton (chlorpheniramine maleate) is a 1st-generation antihistamine that is effective for the treatment of allergic rhinitis and hives. It causes drowsiness less frequently than Benadryl more more than Claritin (loratadine) or zyrtec. Its effects only last for 3-5 hours. Other side-effects include dry mouth & constipation. Men with prostate problems should be wary of it. ...Read more
Does chlor-trimeton work just as well as zyrtec (cetirizine)? Whats cheaper?
What is cheaper: Yes. Chlortrimeton is cheaper but likely to give you a dry mouth, dry eyes and make you sleepy. ...Read more
Can I take chlor-trimeton and benedryl with Zoloft (sertraline) together?
Yes: Do you need both chlortrimeton and benadryl (diphenhydramine)? It's better not to take Benadryl (diphenhydramine) on a regular basis. ...Read more
Should I take fish oil capsules with chlor-trimeton(allery tablets) for my sickness?
No: Krill oil and fish oil are the new snake oil, both are high in omega 3 fatty acids which are extremely fragile. Omega 3 fish oils reduce triglycerides by impairing the liver's ablility to make them. However the oxidative stress caused by fish oil actually raises LDL cholesterol. Some day we may use the phrase "this is just more fish /krill oil" or "here comes the fish/krill oil salesman". ...Read more
I have anaphylaxis from Benadryl (diphenhydramine) (documented by ED mds), is chlor trimeton ok to take instead?
No guarantee: Chlortimeton is a different chemical compared to benadryl (diphenhydramine) (Alkylamine vs Ethanolamine derivatives) so in theory it should be ok.Actual anaphylaxis reaction to antihistamines is not only rare, but every case report, there have been other drugs involved (co-ingested). Consider specific allergy testing because anaphylaxis is life-threatening and if it wasn't the benadryl (diphenhydramine) you need to know absolutely. ...Read moreSee 1 more doctor answer

Patterson is in his eighth season as TCU's head coach. The Frogs, picked to finish third in the Mountain West Conference this season, sit atop the league with a 6-0 record and 9-1 overall mark.
At No. 11 in both the Associated Press and USA Today polls, TCU has its highest in-season ranking since 2003. The Frogs are 12th in the BCS standings.

windsheild light mounts
opinions on these if you have them or if you don't. or what are you running or prefer.
Search Results - Quadratec
Rugged Ridge 488490 - Windshield Light Mounting Bracket in Stainless Steel for 97-06 Jeep® Wrangler TJ & Unlimited - Quadratec
looking for some thing that i won't have to worry about rusting
The Delta brackets are about 3x more expensive than they need to be.
I installed a set of the black Rugged Ridge brackets for someone a few months ago. At least one of the holes on each bracket did not line up with the windshield frame. He ended up sending them back and ordering the KC brackets.
I have installed KC brackets on all 3 of my TJs and have not had an issue with any of them.
As long as there is no bare metal exposed, you should never see any rust.
X2 on the KC brackets.
I smacked the $hit out of a tree limb and it hit my KC light/bracket then my windshield/frame. My windshield broke and the frame crumpled like paper while the KC light and bracket went unscathed...crazy. All it did was rip the wires out the back of it.
kc brackets, bolt right up no issues.
Before you purchase these, take the bolt's out on the hinge so you know you can get them out lol :whistling: just a word of advise :D
I bought the Olympic 4x4 ones because I liked how small and low profile they were. Even though they're small they're tough. They're made from 3/16 steel I'm pretty sure. I haven't measured to confirm it though.
I have the cheapie rugged ridge ones (bought second hand) and they work just fine. No alignment issues. Granted, I may have to flip them around and bottom mount them now that my overhead lightbar just came in from CARR :D
I too have the KC windshield brackets. The fit and finish are excellent.
KC. get um off of amazon. i think mine were 30 shipped to my door. heres the link
Amazon.com: KC HiLiTES 7311 Windshield Hinge Light Mount Brackets - Set of 2: Automotive
I had to buy the Rugged Ridge mounts over the KC mounts (P.O. relocated the mirrors off the doors to the side of the windshield and stripped the bolt putting them on. They are gonna be there forever now). The Rugged Ridge ones lined up fine, but the bolts were incorrect. The original bolts were not long enough to re-use so I had to make a hardware store trip.
Since then they have been just fine a-okay. x2 on making sure you can unscrew the original bolts first before purchasing.
They're expensive but I got the Warrior Products mirror and light combo bracket. I don't have them on yet but they look like they will line up perfectly and will be handy for the warmer weather when I get doors off.
Westbrook- please post a pic on this thread once you install those on your jeep. You and I have similar jeeps, and I would love to see it on, before I too pull the trigger on it. I understood that the warrior mirror light combo bracket was not comparable to our stock mirrors? Are you planning on geeting new mirrors too?
I used to have the Rugged Ridge mounts - I like that the mounting holes are slotted so you can have a bit of fore/aft movement when mounting the lights - which is needed (depending on the size of the lights) to clear the hood when it's leaned back on the windshield.
EDIT - My avatar pic is with the RR mounts.
Currently running the Warrior Products mounts. These mount lower :thumb: but stick out wider - I'm sure the reason for this is so the hood can be leaned back on the windshield.
No problems with the mirrors (unless you remove the check straps from the doors).
I haven't tried the Delta mounts.
I can't imagine there would be enough space to run a full size 6" Daylighter and still have room to lean the hood back on the windshield, but if I was going to mount something smaller there (Like a 4" light) I think they would be perfect.
Nice and low and not too wide.
I put these on about 2 weeks ago, love em so far!!!
MBRP Windshield Light Brackets (97-06 Wrangler TJ) 131043 - Free Shipping over $75!
I put KC Apollo pro 100w long range lights on them. I don't have any pics of them yet.
Can you still lean the hood back on the windshield with the KC Apollos mounted?
Wesboy I haven't tried to put the hood all the way back since I put them on. I will try and get back to you
1 Attachment(s)
Just ran out to the parking lot at work to check on the hood. yes it will go all the way to the windshield and I could still get 2 fingers between the hood and light. BTW they are the 6" lights
Looks like I will be changing windshield mounts again :rolleyes:
This will be the 4th pair!
1 Attachment(s)
Ordered the kc mounts off eBay for $32 with free shipping and mounted lights on them, they do the job!
Attachment 204328
KC's. Craigslist $20! :thumb:
I think my jeep has been painted. The bolts look painted to the windshield bracket, "kind-of" and they will not budge. I feel the Torx driver will break.
I have a #30 Torx driver and it seems loose. I bought replacement bolts to match the Kc mount. I'm thinking on taking the jeep to a auto body shop and have them mount them. . . Thoughts? I feel like bailing on this project
You will need Torx #40 for those bolts - The paint will make it harder to get the Torx in correctly but make sure they are seated correctly BEFORE you start turning them - you don't want to strip those bolts.
Seat the T40 correctly, get right over it with a lot of pressure and make sure it doesn't slip.
An impact driver works well. On two of my six bolts, they just wouldn't budge and stripped the heads. I took my Jeep to a local body shop and they got them off in just a few minutes, but using a air operated impact chisel. Drilled a small hole on the bolt head near the edge for the chisel to get a bite into and they were turning in no time. I also did this with my roll bar bolts when installing my tire carrier. I replaced those with grade 8 hex bolts. Now I own an air chisel.

On behalf of the Black AIDS Insititute, I'd like to wish you a Happy New Year. We hope your holiday season was a joyous one.
One of my holiday traditions is to spend the evening with Alvin Ailey dance theater. Anyone who is an Alvin Ailey fan or aficiando knows the classic piece, Revelation, a tribute to Alvin's talent and an artifact of his artistry. My favorite dance from Revelations is "Ready" in the second movement. The refrain of the song goes, "I wanna be ready." The piece probably resonates with me because my own personal mortality is never far from the top of my mind. I regularly ask myself, "If the other shoe drops. am I ready to go?"
I try to challenge myself to live my life without regrets. As we prepare for a new year, a new chapter, a new opportunity to end the AIDS epidemic, this might be the time to collectively ask ourselves, "Are we ready to end the AIDS epidemic?" Do we know what we need to know and, if not, how do we learn it? Do we have the tools that we need, and, if not, how do we build it? Do we have the commitment to do what's necessary and, if not, how do we find it?
In 2013 the Black AIDS Institute is launching a new strategic vision on how to end the AIDS epidemic in Black communities. We've developed 5 strategic objectives to help us get there:
- First and foremost, we need to fully implement the Affordable Care Act. That includes Medicaid expansion, advocating for appropriate essential health benefits and focusing on creating health exchanges that respond to the needs of people living with HIV.
- We want to help people living with HIV to live open lives without fear of discrimination, violence and/or death.
- We want to increase demand for treatment.
- We want to integrate biomedical interventions with behavioral interventions.
- We want to help institutions in our community retool to be better prepared to deliver services in a post-healthcare-reform world.
We're restructuring our organization and our programs to implement those objectives and to accomplish that vision -- jettisoning programs that don't fit and creating new initiatives that align with where we want to go.
We believe any efforts to end AIDS in Black communities have to focus on helping the estimated more than 500,000 Black Americans livings with HIV reach viral suppression. All of our new strategic objectives are in service of that goal.
We are at a fork in the road. Now is the time to make change. Now is the time to make a difference. Are you ready?

There is also some Information about climate-related and type of temperament, of course is only general data that helps as basic information. As for the number of chickens that will depend on the land you have available to hunt for food (free range) or how much food you can buy each week, remember that you can also give your kitchen scrap from your kitchen, the more organic food you provide the more eggs they produce and better taste they are. Having an estimate of how many eggs you and your family will eat a week (or if you decide to sell the ones you do not eat and profit from it, that will help to support the chickens) and do the math to get the number correct.
Also note that the hens do not lay at full capacity for their entire lives. They will usually reach its highest rate in the early years and then there will be a fall in their production. This is something that must be taken into account, so you can plan in order to increase / replace as the years pass. Finally, before you take the commitment takes time to care of these birds remember you have to ensure that every day they need to have clean water and lots of food that's why is also good let them hut for food. Make sure you want this responsibility before buying egg layers. Have fun and enjoy your chickens and her delicious eggs.

English Lessons
Pistons 2nd-rounder soaks up knowledge as Summer League unfolds
"I love practice," he smiled after his fifth in three days as the Pistons prepare for today's start of the Orlando Pro Summer League. "I love games. Every time I step on the court, I just pray to God to keep me healthy, swift and accurate. As long as I'm healthy and playing, I'm happy."
In English, a player the Pistons were delighted to draft with the 44th pick, Joe Dumars and his staff feel they're getting someone who addresses a smorgasbord of needs. They wanted to get bigger and more athletic on the wings.They wanted perimeter players who fit the mold of what Lawrence Frank wants coming off of his bench: players who first and foremost are motivated defenders. They wanted to get shooters who stretch the floor with their 3-point marksmanship.
Check, check and check. The bonus: English is a dedicated gym rat, a rookie of rare maturity and someone the Pistons see as prime leadership material.
"Trust me," Joe Dumars told reporters after the draft. "He'll be the most impressive young guy you guys have dealt with in a long time."
English comes to the Pistons after a four-year career at Missouri, where he played for two coaches, and a year of prep school following his Baltimore high school career. He's a basketball junkie who pores over tape and statistics. And yet for all of that, he admits the information overload of his first few days as a professional player was daunting.
"Just learning everything," he said. "All the schemes, the reads, and in that process it didn't feel like basketball for me, it was so new. All that thinking with the speed and strength of everyone, then around the third or fourth practice, it kind of felt like basketball again. I kind of knew where to be defensively and it felt like basketball again.
"The defenses are complex, but I'm catching on to the schemes pretty quick. It's just the calls, all of the names, so many names you've got to remember. But I've got good leaders on this team. Brandon (Knight) and Greg (Monroe) do a really good job of keeping me in tune."
English is likely to line up next to Knight in the starting backcourt for the Pistons in Summer League games. Khris Middleton, taken five spots ahead of him at 39, has played primarily small forward in Orlando but will likely also get a look at shooting guard behind English. Throw in Kyle Singler – and nobody has been any more impressive through the six Orlando practices leading to the opener than the 2011 second-rounder – and the Pistons appear to have restocked their perimeter depth swiftly.
Here's English's scouting reports on Singler and Middleton:
- Singler – "Super athletic, good defender, a Duke guy so he definitely is true blue and a high basketball IQ. I didn't remember him being that athletic. We talked about, Greg and those guys, he said they knew he was. He had a big block yesterday, so he's definitely sneaky athletic."
- Middleton – "Super smooth, big-time jump shooter, really long and athletic. He played his last year hurt. That's why he slipped a little to 39. Khris is a top-20 talent. I always told him, even at USA Basketball last summer, I said he should have left after his sophomore year. He came back, unfortunately, got hurt. I'm happy he's on our team and not playing against us. Really smooth, really quick, high release, really good shooter."
"It's learning," he said. "It's a different speed, heavier balls, longer range. If I shoot 46 percent this year, that will be pretty impressive. But I'm learning. My shot will come as I keep getting reps and keep practicing."
And, fear not, Kim English is going to keep practicing. He'd be thrilled to be in any of the NBA's 30 uniforms, but he wasn't just blowing smoke when he said he hoped to be picked by the Pistons. He'd done his homework and felt he'd fit best with the Pistons, and that feeling crystallized for him upon meeting Joe Dumars and his staff at both their Auburn Hills workout and at the Chicago draft combine. His strengths mesh with Lawrence Frank's desires, he believes.
"I'm definitely a guy that can help spread the floor, give Brandon space to operate off screen and rolls and I really take pride in guarding people, so I like to ramp it up on the defensive end," he said. "This is perfect. A really good young core. I'm excited to be a Piston and excited to grow with these guys."

I appreciate it.
This is what i'm shooting for, should it get raised. That is a sick puller!
Do any of you guys live in/around NC and go to the Big Lick truck pull?
That's an awesome van. That's not a sentence often said I believe. And thanks for posting the video too. I miss tractor pulls. I used to go to them with my dad all the time as a kid, and they seem a bit more rare now. Maybe you just have to look a bit harder.
Thanks, Yeah they're getting bigger down here in the south but still not comparable to the ones up northwest.
I love that van. Mine's only 2wd G20, but it has a 6.2 diesel, so it's like a mini semi.
The two in my sig are both 6.2's. The left one is a 1990 that I donated to a needy family.
sweet hell of a van.

WorldWide Media Group - Bill and Drew Would not accept my cancellation notices Nationwide
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I was contacted by Worldwide Media Group to inquire if I would be interested in increasing my exposure on the internet through Google. They claimed they were in partnership with Google. They informed me that they were offering a reduced rate for the first month and that if I was unsatisfied with the service in any way I could cancel at any time. After three weeks into the service, I did not get any leads and did not have increased exposure on Google that I could find so when the girl, Laura, called to ask if she could help with my account, I told her that I wanted to cancel my service. I was told that an account representative would contact me.
I didn't hear back from anyone so I sent an email to confirm my cancellation as I knew I had nothing to document the cancellation. At that point, I decided to look up Worldwide Media Group on the internet and discovered that many people had experienced difficulty cancelling the service. That prompted me to then cancel my credit card to assure I was not billed for the following month. When they tried to bill me anyway, I then received a phone call from Bill demanding payment. I informed him of the cancellation via Laura and email and he told me I could not cancel by email and had to talk to a account representative of which Laura was not and neither was he.
After getting yet another email from them for payment, I called and was directed by a recording to press 3 to "cancel service". After being on hold for 20 minutes, Drew answered the call and hung up before I could even finish my name. I called back and decided to press 2 for "billing" to see if I could get quicker service and the call was answered in 3 minutes. Bill informed me I could not cancel with him so he transferred me to Drew. I sat on hold for another 15 minutes and then Drew answered and once again hung up on me after I said my name. I called back and then pressed 1 which was "account service" and spoke with Laura.
Finally, she was very nice and professional and said she would cancel my account this time. I don't know if they are going to still come after me for the second month of billing, but I have no intention of paying for a service I attempted to cancel per their "cancel at anytime policy". This is obviously a scam that ropes you in with a low initial monthly fee promising results and then makes it next to impossible to cancel so you have to pay at least one months additional fee at a much higher rate. I found it interesting that this seems to be a three person operation; Laura, Bill, and Drew, as those were the only people I spoke with on my many calls.

Sep 4, 2013
Over the weekend, four Lady Volunteer golfers began their quest for an LPGA tour card at the 2013 Ladies Professional Golf Association Qualifying Tournament.
The LPGA Qualifying Tournament, also known as "Q-School", kicked off on August 27. The first stage featured nearly 250 hopeful women's golfers. The ladies traveled to Rancho Mirage, Calif., to compete at the Mission Hills Country Club.
Q-School is composed of three stages. Each stage has a cut, reducing the number of ladies advancing until only the top remaining. Those left standing after Stage III will receiving their LPGA tour card for the following year.
Read how the LPGA Tour Qualifying School works: CLICK HERE
Former Vols Erica Popson, Nathalie Mansson, Ginny Brown, and current Lady Vol Chessey Thomas represented Rocky Top in Stage I of Q-School.
"We are extremely proud of our girls," Tennessee head coach Judi Pavon said. "It is obviously a big achievement to play and advance."
Three of the four Big Orange participants advanced with Popson finishing tied for fourth (Brown missed the cut by one stroke).
"It felt good to play well at first stage," Popson said. "My swing coach Ronnie McCann traveled out to California to caddy for me so it was very nice to have someone who knew me and my game so well.
He also has a ton of experience so it was great to be able to learn from him throughout the week. It was a good week on the course with great company in Ronnie and I am looking forward to the next stage.
I feel like I played solid on the first stage but will keep working hard on my physical and mental game for the next stage."
Popson was the model of consistency throughout her four days in California. The former All-SEC women's golfer carded rounds of 69-71-70-71--281 (-7).
Thomas ensured her spot in Stage II with a clutch final round of 72 (E). It was a welcomed ending of Stage I for the rising Tennessee senior. Thomas battled with inconsistent rounds during her four days in California with rounds of 75-72-76-72--295 (+7).
"Well I finished in the top-100 so that means I get to go on to Stage II down in Florida in mid-October," Thomas said. "I don't usually get on too big of an emotional high with golf stuff, but I do have to admit I was pretty excited when I found out that I had made it."
Here is a tweet from Thomas during Stage I:
My little reminder for the week while I start chasing my dream. #Ao1 pic.twitter.com/UTdexPLXbX-- Chessey Thomas (@ChesseyThomas) August 28, 2013
Mansson, a 2012 Lady Vol graduate, performed well enough to make the weekend cut as she tied for 79th. The former All-SEC first-teamer wrapped up Stage I by carding 74-75-72-76--297 (+9).
Brown was the lone former Lady Vol to miss the Stage I cut. Brown excelled in rounds one and three, shooting a 72 (E) and 70 (-2) respectively. However, she could not overcome a final round 80 (+8) to advance to Stage II.
Here is a tweet from Brown prior to Stage I:

Rivera's ninth inning homer stuns Peoria
Rattlers rally to beat Chiefs 3-2
By Chris Mehring / Wisconsin Timber Rattlers | May 27, 2012 2:22 PM ET
The teams traded runs in the early innings. Peoria (22-28) scored first.
Zeke DeVoss started the Chiefs half of the third inning with a double. Taiwan Easterling followed with a triple to right-center to score DeVoss. Peoria was primed for a bigger inning, but Rattlers pitcher Will West struck out the next two batters and left Easterling stranded at third by getting the final out on a groundball.
Wisconsin (32-18) responded in the top of the fourth. Greg Hopkins doubled to left-center with one out and took third on an error. Cameron Garfield singled through the drawn-in infield to get Hopkins home with the tying run.
Easterling would double to start the Peoria fifth inning. He scored the run that put the Chiefs up 2-1 on a one out single by Ryan Cuneo.
Barnes relieved West after the single by Cuneo and got a 4-6-3 double play to end the inning. Barnes would toss 3-2/3 scoreless innings in relief, allow one hit, and strike out three to keep the Rattlers down a run.
Wisconsin had an opportunity to at least tie the game in the top of the eighth inning. Chadwin Stang reached on an error and Brandon Macias was hit by a pitch to start the inning. But, Jason Rogers grounded into a double play and a fly ball of the bat of Greg Hopkins was run down at the wall to keep Peoria up 2-1.
Yao-Lin Wang took over for Peoria in the bottom of the ninth inning and struck out the first batter of the inning. Max Walla was next and he lined single to left. The base hit by Walla extended his hitting streak to seven games and brought Rivera to the plate.
Wang missed with the first pitch to the Rattlers shortstop. His next pitch was right in Rivera's wheelhouse. Rivera hit a deep, towering drive to left that went out of the stadium, hit in the middle of the street, and came to rest just short of a building across the street. The two-run blast was the sixth homer of the season for Rivera and it put the Rattlers up 3-2.
Harvey, Wisconsin's closer, entered the game in the bottom of the ninth inning and set down the Chiefs in order to collect his tenth save of the season.
Game three of the series between the Timber Rattlers and Chiefs in a Memorial Day matinee. Wisconsin has Matt Miller (3-4, 4.24) as their scheduled starting pitcher. Peoria have Jose Rosario (3-5, 5.65) as their scheduled starter. Game time is 2:00pm at Peoria Chiefs Stadium. Tune in for the broadcast on AM1280, WNAM starting with the Miller Lite Pregame Show at 1:40pm.
Yadiel Rivera (6th, 1 on in 9th inning off Yao-Lin Wang, 1 out)
WP: Jacob Barnes (2-1)
LP: Yao-Lin Wang (2-2)
SAVE: Seth Harvey (10)

Nancy Barry: Startup Money For Enterprising Women
When she was at Harvard business school, Nancy Barry drove classmates crazy. From age 16, she had spent summers working for her father's management-consulting firm, which brought her into contact with scores of small and midsize businesses. So whatever her class was studying, she knew about it. Says Barry, now 41: "I'd raise my hand obnoxiously and say, `When I was 16, I did a study of the garage-door-opener market in California . . . .' The class would groan."
Today, Barry's experience is broader still. At the World Bank for 15 years, as division chief for industry, trade, and finance in her last post, Barry left last fall to become president of another global nonprofit bank, the Women's World Bank. The 11-year-old WWB is a far cry from the enormous World Bank. But Barry didn't join for the prestige. At the World Bank, she saw an intense need to give women access to credit. Though a big part of the work force in many industries, many women lacked collateral to get loans to start businesses. WWB, with 50 affiliates in 40 countries, encourages commercial banks to lend to women by backing 75% of each loan.
Until now, WWB has concentrated on microenterprise, with the average loan about $200. Barry now wants to push for bigger businesses. One avenue: the export market. Barry is working on forging links between the women of six Latin American countries and the clothing and leather-goods businesses of Italy, including Benetton and the Fendi sisters.
Eight months on the job, Barry can boast success: By soliciting foundations and corporations she knew from World Bank days, she has won promises of an additional $12 million--more capital than was raised in WWB's first 10 years. And she has already visited most of WWB's 50 affiliates. Once an avid swimmer, Barry now has a new sport: "Running--to planes."

Sales Tactics HTML version
What They Want
Making a lot of money is largely a process of convincing people, or selling
yourself, your service, your product. And the trick is to tell them what they want
to hear. The problem is to find out what they want to hear.
So, you will start out by giving them basic information about what you are selling.
You then continue with your sales approach, always watching their reactions
carefully. When you see their eyes light up and they lean forward with interest,
then continue on the topic that aroused that interest, no matter how odd it may
seem to you. And do the opposite when you reach any of the usual parts of your
presentation, if the prospect shows less than the normal amount of interest; that
is, shorten that part and go on to the next.

Staten Island's RZA is the producer, leader, and all-around mastermind behind the Wu-Tang Clan's revolutionary emergence in the 1990s. Appearing as an MC on all of the Wu's group albums as well as numerous Wu solo albums, RZA also released his own solo albums in 1998 and 2003 (the brilliant BIRTH OF A PRINCE). A modern Renaissance man and a true hip-hop innovator, RZA parlayed his production skills into a successful career as a soundtrack composer, most notably for the KILL BILL movies and Jim Jarmusch's GHOST DOG.
There are no customer reviews yet. Be the first to write a review!
Unlike their predecessors, who each released about an album a year, Master P and the Wu-Tang Clan dominated the mid to late 1990s with a hailstorm of discs that saturated the rap marketplace. RZA, the Wu''s über-producer, added to the storm with Bobby Digital in Stereo, the soundtrack for a straight-to-video film directed, produced, and written by RZA under the alter ego Bobby Digital. Whether he''s able to compete with Master P on the cinematic front remains to be seen, but the project surely confirms RZA''s mastery of the production studio and of the hip-hop domain in general. Without sounding too threatening or gangsta, RZA--er, Digital--lays down street-lethal beats and rhythms that resonate with a futuristic cyberpunk theme. And while the songs are fairly free of melody, there are plenty of atmospheric keyboard noises, sound effects, and samples to keep things pumping. --Jon Wiederhorn

New Enterprise Features with mobilEcho 2.1 Make Deployment & Management Even Easier
When we started developing mobilEcho last Fall, one of the basic "givens" that underscored our efforts was that we know who we are: GroupLogic is an enterprise-driven company delivering enterprise-class products regardless of size. Whether it's the the large financial services or pharma company with 1000s of iPads or the SMB looking to support 25 iPads, these organizations can be sure that critical corporate assets are protected and properly managed. That's what we did, and will continue to do with all of our products.
Specific to mobilEcho, our core message is grounded in the value propositions of Simple, Secure and Managed. It's designed to be simple for the end-user, secure to protect the organization's critical assets, and managed so IT can easily and quickly deploy and maintain the system without incurring escalating costs. Further enhancing these core tenets, we are announcing today several new key enterprise-level components with mobilEcho 2.1. With this new release we are adding support for Microsoft DFS and Network Reshare capabilities to make Mobile File Management (MFM) even more simple and manageable by enhancing scalability and ease-of deployment.
In our discussions with some of our larger customers we have found that both of these functionalities are critical. Here is why:
- DFS – Support for Distributed File System (DFS) means mobile users can now access files and resources located in consolidated DFS storage. Many larger enterprises use DFS and this is just a basic requirement for them.
- Network Reshare – Network Reshare allows a single mobilEcho server to give access to files on additional file servers. This presents several opportunities. First, it gives you great scalability as it simplifies the deployment of mobile access to many servers. Second, it simplifies the overall management in enterprises where there are 10s to 100s of servers (or NAS devices) and/or they are geographically dispersed. Third, network reshare allows you to set up a proxy server within your firewall DMZ, giving you much greater security. Finally, with network reshare, organizations can now gain mobile access to SMB/CIFS capable non-Windows servers, such as Linux servers, and NAS devices, such as NetApp, EMC, IBM or others. This greatly expands flexibility for an enterprise.
As I mentioned, mobilEcho 2.1 is already available and we will be hosting another demo webinar in two weeks where we'll walk you through all the client-side and management features of mobilEcho. We have found that these demos are invaluable for enterprises in truly understanding why Mobile File Management (MFM) is critical to their enterprise mobility strategy. If you are interested you can register here. If you just have some questions you can also contact us at email@example.com.

A Bug Fix to Fix the Previous Bug Fixes: Windows System Update Readiness Tool
If you are having problems installing Service Pack or software updates on Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 7 or Windows Vista you are not alone. There are lots of people facing the same issue, including me, and hopefully this article will be helpful in understanding and solving the problem. I should point out that I have encountered this problem of installing Service Pack 1 (SP1) on numerous servers (all new installation) as well as existing Windows 7 client. The focus of this article is on Windows Server 2008 R2 but you can apply the same techniques on Windows 7 and Windows Vista.
It took me three full days to find a solution that worked for me. Needless to say I was searching the Web all this time and trying various solutions but some worked and others didn't. Unlike the old Windows NT days when the patches were considered a risky business, for the past decade or so Microsoft has done a great job to make the updates and security patches fairly reliable. It's a daunting task to deal with a gazillion updates on various systems and gain the confidence of consumers. Microsoft gained enough of my confidence that I have been configuring all my computers, including servers, to download and install the Windows Update automatically. Even though I have occasionally encountered a few crashes, overall I have been fairly satisfied with the automatic Windows Update service. Well, lately things have not been so rosy. Windows Updates are causing more problems more frequently and therefore starting this year I decided to manually update my computers because of the fear of system crashes and other unexpected results. Microsoft has confirmed my fears of Windows Update by releasing a patch to fix the patches. The patch is called Windows System Update Readiness Tool, essentially a bug fix that fixes other bug fixes. But these days vendors don't use the term bugs any more because that is admitting that there was a problem with the software in the first place. Instead they refer to them as "patches", "updates", "repairs", "fixes", and now there is a new term "tool." Well, you tell me which one sounds better Windows System Update Readiness Tool or Windows Update Bug Fix? Exactly my point!
Microsoft is aware that even the Windows System Update Readiness Tool may not fix the Windows Update problems with Windows Server 2008 R2 and therefore they have posted an article on TechNet for advanced diagnosing and fixing servicing corruption. The article is listed under the Troubleshooting section as Known Issues with Windows Server 2008 R2. So now we know that Microsoft is aware of this issue and have released a bug fix for the bug fixes and also admitted that the bug fix for the bug fixes may not work and therefore we may need to rely on some advance diagnostics to fix the problems with the corruption in Windows servicing store (more on this servicing store in a minute).
Let's get back to the problem of installing SP1. As I indicated earlier, lately I have been having lots of issues with installing Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 on several servers. As far as I recall, I have experienced this issue mostly on new server installations. The problem is that the service pack hangs after a minute or so and the installation fails. After spending a lot of time I finally narrowed the problem down to one particular update (KB2620704). I installed all the updates on my new servers (92 to be exact) and then installed KB2620704 that was causing problems. On some servers KB2620704 failed while on others I was able to install it successfully. However, even after I was able to install all the updates, including KB2620704, I still wasn't able to install SP1. In addition, I was not able to install SharePoint Server 2010 on one of the servers because when I tried to install the software prerequisites it failed.
At one point Windows Update offered me a new update called System Update Readiness Tool for Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 Edition (KB 947821) [August 2011].
According to Microsoft:
"This tool is being offered because an inconsistency was found in the Windows servicing store which may prevent the successful installation of future updates, service packs, and software. This tool checks your computer for such inconsistencies and tries to resolve issues if found."
In case you are wondering about the Windows Servicing Store, it's a component that is required to successfully install the service packs.
There is something very interesting in the above screenshot. Notice that the last update on the list Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 x64 Edition (KB976932) is only 13.6MB. If you download SP1 from Microsoft here, the size is 903.2MB. The interesting part was that I was working on several newly installed servers and only one of them showed SP1 as 13.6MB. All the other servers listed KB976932 as 95.5MB – 892.6MB, as shown in the screenshot below.
After installing KB947821 I was still not able to installSP1. I went to the SUR log to see what's going on. See this article for more information.
I noticed the log pointed to the KB2620704 which I knew was a problem right from the start. On the server where I was able to install KB2620704 everything was fine but on the server where I wasn't able to install SP1 I knew I had to install KB2620704. I was left with only 2 updates (KB2620704 & the SP1 update KB976932) so I unchecked KB976932 and tried to install KB2620704 but it failed with the error Code 800F0818.
Now you may get lucky after installing KB2620704 but I wasn't. Here's what I did next. Per TechNet article Advanced guidelines for diagnosing and fixing servicing corruption I looked at the two files listed at the end of the checksur.log.
Next I started cmd.exe as an administrator and backed up the two files as a precaution.
copy %windir%\servicing\packages\Package_for_KB2620704_SP1~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~220.127.116.11.mum c:\temp
copy %windir%\servicing\packages\Package_for_KB2620704_SP1~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~184.108.40.206.cat c:\temp
Then I took ownership of these files so I can copy these files from another server.
takeown /f %windir%\servicing\packages\Package_for_KB2620704_SP1~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~188.8.131.52.mum
takeown /f %windir%\servicing\packages\Package_for_KB2620704_SP1~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~126.96.36.199.cat
Next I used icacls to grant administrators permissions to overwrite the files.
icacls %windir%\servicing\packages\Package_for_KB2620704_SP1~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~220.127.116.11.mum /grant administrators:F
icacls %windir%\servicing\packages\Package_for_KB2620704_SP1~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~22.214.171.124.cat /grant administrators:F
Finally, I logged out and then logged back in so I can copy the two files from another server where I was able to successfully install KB2620704 to the server. Even though I was logged in with a domain account that was a member of the local administrators group the permission to copy the files was denied. I went to Windows\servicing\packages folder in Windows Explorer and gave my domain account full-control permissions to the packages folder. I removed this permission after I was able to copy the two files. I ran the update for KB 2620704 and it was finally successful.
I then tried to install SP1 (KB976932) again. By that time I knew all these KB article numbers better than my address and phone number. Fortunately, this time it worked and I was able to install SP1 on my Windows Server 2008 R2. It only took about 40 hours in three days. Piece of cake!
SharePoint Server 2010 Installation
The rest of the article only applies to you if you are installing SharePoint Server 2010 on a new server. Once the service pack was installed, I should be able to install SharePoint, right? Wrong! This time the software prerequisites tool was able to install a couple of prerequisites, including the Web Server (IIS) Role, but was unable to install the hotfix KB976462.
Okay, no problem. I downloaded the hotfix KB976462 for my x64 system (Windows6.1-KB976462-v2-x64.msu) from here and tried to run it but got an error "The update is not applicable to your computer." Here's how I worked around that hurdle. I followed the instructions in yet another KB article KB934307.
- I created a folder C:\KB976462 and downloaded the file Windows6.1-KB976462-v2-x64.msu into that folder.
- I created a folder C:\TEMP.
- I opened command prompt as an administrator and ran the following command to expand the MSU file to the temp folder which resulted in 4 files in the TEMP folder.
expand -f:* "C:\KB976462\Windows6.1-KB976462-v2-x64.msu" C:\TEMP
- Then I ran the following command.
pkgmgr.exe /n:c:\temp\Windows6.1-KB976462-v2-x64.xml
You will not see any message after you run this command successfully. Just wait a minute or so until the command prompt is returned and that's how you will know if the command was successfully executed. The only time you will see a message is if something went wrong.
- Next I double-clicked the Windows6.1-KB976462-v2-x64.msu file in the C:\KB976462 folder where I originally downloaded it. I got a pop up message that "The update is not applicable to your computer." This is the same message I received when I had double-clicked the file the first time. By the way, some people have reported that they get the message that the patch is already installed.
NOTE: Regardless of what message you see, you should simply ignore it and go to the next step and you will be a happy camper.
- I ignored the notice and ran the SharePoint software prerequisites tool again. This time everything worked and I was able to install the software prerequisites.
- I deleted both the C:\KB976462 and the C:\TEMP folders.
- I rebooted the server. Even though I had not received any notices or warnings that I need to restart the server, when I tried to install SharePoint the wizard indicated that I must reboot first before proceeding to install SharePoint.
- After the reboot I continued on with SharePoint Server 2010 installation without a hitch.
Here are the download links for Windows System Update Readiness Tool for Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 7 and Windows Vista (KB947821).
- System Update Readiness Tool for Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 Edition (KB947821) [August 2011] 315.6MB
- System Update Readiness Tool for Windows 7 106.6MB
- System Update Readiness Tool for Windows Vista 121.8MB
Here's another related article KB947366 that might also help.
KB947366: How to troubleshoot Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 service pack installation issues
A hotfix for the.NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 is available for Windows 7 and for Windows Server 2008 R2 as a prerequisite for Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2010.
KB976462: Prerequisite hotfix for Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2010
This is the hotfix mentioned in the above link. It's called SharePoint Shared Services Roll-up for Windows Server 2008 R2. Instead of going through all the hoops, you can download this hotfix from the following link.
KB976462: Download link for the prerequisite SharePoint Shared Services Roll-up
And finally here's an article which describes the Windows Update Stand-alone Installer. I was able to use the information in this article to get over the last hurdle.
KB934307: Description of the Windows Update Stand-alone Installer (Wusa.exe) and of.msu files in Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 and in Windows Server 2008 R2

The Pen and the Paper Diet
You'll need your calculator for this customized diet plan.Top Rated Diets of 2017
The Pen and the Paper Diet was written by a husband and wife duo who lost weight together and have managed to keep it off. Together they devised a plan that combined both common sense and science to yield an easy eating diet plan that can be maintained for the rest of your life.
It is called the Pen and the Paper Diet because you'll be spending some time calculating how many calories you currently eat, how many calories you need to eat in order to reach your goal weight and how many calories you can eat to maintain your ideal weight. While this may sound like a crash course in your high school algebra class, the book does a really good jog and providing you the equations to produce these numbers so that you all have to do is plug and chug.
The principles on the Pen and Paper Diet are based upon basic physiology, namely, that in order to lose weight, you have to consume less than what you are expending. While this may sound like any given diet, the Pen and the Paper diet is specifically customized for you. Your calorie needs will depend upon your age, gender, height, current weight, goal weight and activity level.
Once you have determined your daily calories needed to lose weight, you take out your pen, paper and calculator and start tabulating the calories of every food you consume. The book includes a 70-page calorie counter and teaches you how to mathematically adjust for your portion sizes so that you stay within your target calorie range.
Do You Know the Best Diets of 2017?
- Based on science
- Formulas are easy to follow
- Teaches you how to measure and monitor portion sizes
- No foods are restricted
- Diet is completely customized to meet your weight loss goals
- Keeping a food journal is a successful way to lose weight and keep it off
- Over time, calculators are no longer needed as you become more aware of how much you can eat
- Some charts and graphs are difficult to read
- Requires daily tracking and calculations of what and how much you eat
- Calorie-counter only includes generic food
- Doesn't contain much information other than a few formulas and a calorie counter
- No exercise program
The Pen and the Paper Diet has you calculate your daily calorie needs by using a precise formula that takes into account your height, age, gender, weight, goal weight and activity level. Once you have this number, the plan is fairly easy to put into place.
Each day, you calculate how much you can eat based on the calories of a certain food and its portion size. As long as you don't exceed your daily calorie needs, you will lose weight. Once you have met your goal weight, you calculate a new daily calorie formula since your calorie needs will adjust as your body exerts less energy to maintain your goal weight. As long as you stay within this new caloric range, you can maintain your weight.EXERCISE
There are no exercise guidelines to follow, but exercise is encouraged as it increases how many calories you are able to eat and hastens weight loss.CONCLUSION
The Pen and the Paper Diet is simple and clear-cut plan to follow: figure out how many calories you need to lose weight, stick within this calorie range and lose weight.
The book does not include a lot of additional information other than the formulas you need to calculate your calorie intake, to portion out sizes and a chart of commonly-eaten foods and their calories and weight.
If you are fastidious about carrying around a calculator and are looking for a no-frills plan that is as simple as dieting can get and does not restrict what you can and can't eat, the The Pen and Paper Diet may be just the plan for you.Common Misspellings

AUGUSTA, Ga. >> Sony Open in Hawaii champion Russell Henley overcame a case of nerves to shoot an even-par 72 in today's opening round of the Masters.
After bogeying the first two holes, Henley, who will turn 24 tomorrow, parred the next five, before closing the front nine with back-to-back birdies.
"I was a little nervy at the beginning, but I feel so good about my game," Henley said. "I'm excited because I'm putting the ball so well. I can't wait to get back out there tomorrow."
The South Carolina resident by way of the University of Georgia parred the next five, including the difficult holes of Amen Corner. On the par-5 15th, his second shot hit a pine tree, but found the fairway about 100 yards from the hole. No problem; he landed his third shot about 15 feet from the pin and rolled it in for birdie to go 1 under for his round.
A three-putt bogey at the 17th, and an errant tee shot at the final hole, left him in danger of ending his round the same way he began it — with back-to-back bogeys. But he rolled in a beautiful 45-footer to save par and remain in contention.
"I was so far away, I didn't even see it go in," Henley said. "I wanted to par that hole so badly. It was a good way to finish."
Henley was tied for 25th after signing his scorecard. He will tee off in the afternoon tomorrow.
Henley won his first start as an official member of the PGA Tour at the Sony Open in January. He became the first player since 2001 to accomplish that feat. His 24-under-par finish of 256 was the best in Sony Open history and tied for the third-lowest in PGA history. He captured three Web.com Tour events, including one as an amateur.

Those individual Pineapple Cakes look so good! I've never thought of making them in individual servings but will, they make such a nice presentation, those babies are glistening!
Muffin pans save the day
photo by RBerteig
Muffin pans can be a lifesaver when you have guests and don't want to spend all your time cooking. Use your pan for brownies, meatloaf or cheesecake, or line them with foil and use them as gelatin molds. You're limited only by your imagination. Here are a few frugal ideas to start you off.
Nest Egg
1 bag frozen shredded hash-brown potatoes, defrosted
6 tablespoons butter
8 eggs
2/3 cup milk
1 cup breakfast sausage, diced
salt and pepper, to taste
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
Cook's note: You can add red and green peppers, onions, crumbled bacon, mushrooms, salsa or use refrigerated biscuits instead of shredded potatoes. Bake sunny-side-up eggs in a muffin pan, too. Just crack the egg into a greased muffin tin and bake at 350 F for about 15 minutes or until egg whites are solid.
Preheat oven to 400 F. In a large bowl, toss together the potatoes and 4 tablespoons melted butter. Spoon and press the potato mixture into each muffin pan cup so it covers the bottom and sides. Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven. Let cool.
Whisk the eggs and milk until frothy. Using a large skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter to the pan over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook thoroughly. Add the eggs, and scramble cook until set but underdone. Add salt and pepper to taste. Lower oven temperature to 350 F. Fill each muffin cup with the egg mixture. Sprinkle with cheese. Put in oven until cheese melts. Remove egg nests from muffin pan. Serve hot.
Pineapple Cakes
1/4 cup butter
2/3 cup brown sugar, packed
1 cup canned pineapple tidbits or rings
6 maraschino cherries
1-1/3 cups flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup shortening
3/4 cup milk
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 egg
Preheat oven to 350 F. Melt butter in a small saucepan. Stir in brown sugar and mix until dissolved. Remove from heat. Using a large, lightly greased 6-cup muffin pan, evenly divide butter mixture into each cup. Add 2 tablespoons of pineapple or a single pineapple ring into each cup. Press a cherry into the center of the pineapple if using tidbits. Using an electric mixer on high speed, beat the remaining ingredients until combined. Divide batter evenly into each cup. Bake 30 minutes. Remove from muffin pan by loosening edges and inverting pan. If using pineapple rings, garnish with one cherry in the center of each cake. Allow to cool before serving.
Muffin Pan Potatoes
1 clove garlic, minced
1 small onion, diced
1 cup mushrooms, chopped
10 medium, white potatoes, peeled and boiled until tender
1/2 stick butter or to taste
1 cup milk
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
4 eggs, beaten
4 teaspoons baking powder
salt and pepper, to taste
2 cups shredded cheese
Cook's note: This is a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes. Substitute your favorite fixings such as ham, chives or ranch-dressing seasoning when mashing your potatoes.
Preheat oven to 375 F. Saute garlic, onion and mushrooms in a skillet. Using a mixer, mash your potatoes with all ingredients but the cheese until fluffy. Fold in shredded cheese. Grease pan. Scoop and evenly divide into muffin cups. Bake for 40 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 to 10 minutes before removing from pan.
Muffin pan dutch babies
1 cup milk
1 cup flour
6 eggs
1/4 cup melted butter
dash salt
Preheat oven at 400 F. Grease muffin pan. Combine all ingredients with an electric mixer. Evenly pour mix into individual muffin cups. Bake for 15 minutes or until puffy. Remove from pan and serve with your favorite pancake toppings.

Fantastic ideas! I've never thought about my muffin pans for more than muffins and cupcakes. Duh!
I love using my muffin pans for all kinds of things, like meatloaf, biscuits, and corn bread.
I love using my muffin tins. When making banana bread I didn't have time to wait for it to bake, so I put it into muffin tins and have rarely made a loaf since! They bake in just over 20 minutes.

Tell them they scratced your rims and they need to replace it.**Update**
Taking the car to the dealership was a nightmare. When I came in for my appointment the service writers and the Subaru Technician were on the defensive telling me that the car will normally pull to the right due to the crown of the road and it being such a light vehicle, I dont think that the vehicle should change lanes on its own on the freeway to. To make matters worse the tech decided that it was the tires that I had on the vehicle and that those were to blame for the pull to the right. But for some reason he decided to flip the front drivers and passengers tire any ways because he believed they were the source of the problem. While doing that he scratched the factory rims and what ever tool they used also made a ring on the inside of each lug hole on my brand new rims.
I'm not really sure where to go from here, they are pointing the finger at my tires and are basically telling me go fly a kite even though the car has less then 500 miles on it. I also need to bring up the damage to the wheels what is the best way to go about doing this?
Thanks in advance

Key Bond Investment Considerations, part 2
Bond Basics
Key Bond Investment Considerations, part 2
Yield is the return you actually earn on the bond—based on the price you paid and the interest payment you receive. There are basically two types of bond yields you should be aware of: current yield and yield to maturity or yield to call. Current yield is the annual return on the amount paid for the bond and is derived by dividing the bond's interest payment by its purchase price. If you bought at €1,000 and the interest rate is 8% (€80), the current yield is 8% (€80 ÷€1,000). If you bought at €900 (the discounted price) for the same €1,000 bond (i.e. its par or face value) and the interest rate is 8% (€80), the current yield is 8.89% (€80 ÷ €900). You obviously would only be able to purchase the €1,000 face value bond at a discounted price if interest rates had risen since the bond was issued.
Yield to maturity and yield to call, which are considered more meaningful, tell you the total return you will receive by holding the bond until it matures or is called. These concepts also enable you to compare bonds with different maturities and coupons.
Yield to maturity = all the interest you receive from the time you purchase the bond until maturity (including interest on the interest at the original purchasing yield), + any gain (if you purchased the bond below its par, or face, value) or – any loss (if you purchased it above its par value).
Yield to call is calculated the same way as yield to maturity, but assumes that a bond will be called and that the investor will receive face value back at the call date. With a securitisation transaction such as a mortgage-backed security, where calls/prepayments can be unpredictable, you should ask about the assumptions used when calculating the yield to maturity. You should ask your financial advisor for the yield to maturity or yield to call on any bond you are considering purchasing. (See the Aids to Understanding Bonds section for tips on Using Math to Understand Bonds). Buying a bond based only on current yield may not be sufficient, since it may not represent the bond's real value to your portfolio.

Van der Waals radius
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Van der Waals radius is the radius of an atom that is seen as a hard sphere. It is named after someone who realized that atoms were not points, but actual objects. It can be found by the critical point and the physical properties of a gas. It also can be found by a molecular crystal.
