About MeMocha Goddess is what I go by and I believe my name tells a lot about my personality. I'm 22, au naturale and I love the skin I'm in! I don't have much experience but I'm hoping to gain more from this site. I'm outgoing, determined, hardworking and willing to do what it takes to get the job done. I love shoes, purses and taking pictures of myself and others has always been my niche, so needless to say I'm very comfortable in front of the camera. I'd love to be a spokesperson and just continue to build my portfolio as a model. I look forward to meeting and working with you! Give me a chance and I promise I won't disappoint!

Does she cook and clean for us and do our laundry? Oh, yes, she does. She feeds us with grace, with the Word of God, and with Eucharist, and she invites us to throw our smelly old sins down the chute and -- okay, here the analogy breaks down. I guess she washes, dries, and folds our consciences for us, and leaves them in a tidy stack on our bed? She bustles around, caring for our needs, even anticipating our needs, telling us what we need and making sure we have plenty of opportunities to take ad … [Read more...]

Why does the Church make things so complicated?

This and that, baby pics, and a baptism!
Today, I hope to get caught up on emails. I'm sorry to say I pretty much gave up responding to anyone sometime in the third trimester, and Corrie is now 9 weeks old, so that's . . . a lot of emails. So if you wrote to me, thanks for being patient!We're right in the middle of "something every weekend" season -- confirmation, baptism, birthday parties galore, graduations, concerts, and a bunch of things I'm forgetting.Thank goodness we have no athletic ability in this family. … [Read more...]
Grace is free, but not all fees are simony
The expense of obtaining a decree of nullity makes it difficult for some people to come into full communion with the Church. When annulments are expensive, there is also the risk that outsiders (or even Catholics) perceive that annulment is just "Catholic divorce," for sale to parishioners with enough ready cash. But here's the problem: it really does cost money to do it right. Read the rest at the Register. image By Gratianus (culture.gouv.fr) [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons … [Read more...]
Nobody told me!
This isn't about Communion in the hand vs. Communion on the tongue. This is about the casual abuses we allow ourselves to commit -- we faithful ones, we educated ones, we who have been told. We who should know better. Somebody told us. The one up there, hanging over the altar with His arms spread out, open to be abused, open to be misunderstood, open to be ignored -- what has He done but tell us, over and over again, that He is here, giving Himself to us, because we don't care? … [Read more...]

It was a beautiful confession.
PIC crying kid with running nose [T]he priest said what this particular priest always says: "Thank you for that beautiful confession." He says this when I have a long and sordid list, or a short and sordid list, or when he can barely understand me because my nose is running from the sordidness of it all.

That's a tough one. If it fails you would have to call out a locksmith to get in UNLESS you wanted to break in and destroy it. Sounds silly but I got a good ol mechanical turn dial because I feared a failure at the worst time or an EMP/Solar Storm bringing down all electronics.
I sleep with my safe unlocked. Put my car keys and wallet in there so I remember to lock it up in the morning. In your case I would have tools on hand to open it if the lock failed durring a SHTF event. It would not be quick but could be done with the right tools.

I want to put my car on a diet. Who has done this, starting weight? Ending weight?
I'm deciding to put my Monte Carlo on a diet. Recently took a trip to local landfill to borrow there scale for a minute. My car weighed 3800lbs with me in it. I'm a buck-75. That puts the car @ 3625lbs. Still heavy I'd say. I never considered how much exrta stuff I had in the car. I mean cargo. The trunk is used for storing old parts and unused stuff, broken posi, new kyb's, another battery, factory starter, and so on. Well, I had 325lbs of cargo. I had no idea that stuff weighed that much. Once removed, the gross weight is 3300lbs. That is better that I thought. Up until now,it was believed by me that these cars are heavy, and there is nothing that can be done about it. I am now wanting to removing more weight from the car. Fiber glass hood to replace metal one, get rid of the power bench seat, I'm sure it weighs at least 125lbs.
What is solid hotrod gross weight? Is lighter better?
What have some of you done to shed weight? Would love to hear some stories and advice.

Black Ball
The African American Research Library wraps up its month-long Negro League Baseball Showcase on Saturday with appearances by more than a dozen players who gained fame in the Negro League -- or at least, the little fame there was to gain.
The one thing mainstream America seems to know about the Negro Leagues is that it doesn't know much about them. Thus, some statistics from their rich and segregated history will shock you. Josh Gibson banged out 84 home runs in a season in 1936 -- take that, Babe Ruth, Hank Aaron, Mark McGuire, and Barry Bonds. In 1952, Joe Louis Reliford became the youngest person to play in a professional game at the age of 12. Reliford is one of the Negro League players putting in an appearance at the African American Research Library.
The very term "Negro League" is something of a misnomer. Along with the Negro National League and the Negro American League, there was the Negro Southern League, the Texas Negro League, and several others. And that's just the professional leagues -- even more semiprofessional teams and leagues dotted the country. Down in South Florida, with no league representation, barnstorming teams, including the Ethiopian Clowns and Miami Giants, traveled around the country putting on exhibition matches with professional teams.
Negro League Baseball Showcase
The African American Research Library, 2650 Sistrunk Blvd., Fort Lauderdale
Throughout the month, culminating in an exhibition game Saturday, April 26. For times and dates of events, call 954-625-2800.
Although there is no Negro League Baseball Hall of Fame, 16 of the era's players have been inducted into Cooperstown, the most recent being Smokey Joe Williams in 1999. Reliford also counts himself a Hall of Fame member -- though he played only one extremely controversial game, in which the umpire allowed Reliford -- the batboy -- to play a few innings. The real reason that he made the hall in 1991 was his prepubescent performance on the base paths.

Many other Negro League players make stops at the African American Research Library throughout the month. Walter "Dirt" Gibbons, so named for his childhood propensity for eating dirt, and Clifford "Quack" Brown both grew up in the Tampa area but found themselves on opposing teams in the late 1940s -- Gibbons pitched for the Indianapolis Clowns while Brown played shortstop and second base for the Philadelphia Stars. Though Brown never had to face Gibbons' pitching in the pros, he recalls facing Dirt in younger days in Tampa.
"I tore the fence down with him," Brown states with a wicked grin. "One pitch, and I tore the fence down."
"I was 9!" Gibbons quickly protests.
Whatever the truth of the matter, these men have that touch of bravado that is the hallmark of many a ballplayer.
Some of Gibbons' illustrious colleagues -- a dozen of the most successful pitchers in the Negro Leagues -- meet Saturday as the Negro League Baseball Showcase concludes.

Well there's been some amazing music to kick off 2011. I've raved about lots of albums: last week it was Jamie XX and Gil Scott-Heron and also Black Dub (a 2010 album, I guess, but one I heard this year). I've also given my first five-star rave review of 2011 to an album in The Dominion Post - you can probably guess the album - but it might have been this one...
But, already, I've had to hear some turkeys. Check it out. Some of these albums were released last year, sure, but they were given to me to review at the start of 2011. So here are the ones (so far) I wish I had not heard. I can't say I'm (hugely) surprised. And maybe you're not either. But maybe you've been disappointed by an album in 2011 that you wanted to like. Or you've just had to endure some really bad music already. If so, name the duds you've heard this year already. Meanwhile, here are the ones I've sat through.
The Midnights are a soulful-sounding reggae act from the label that has been stoking the friendly BBQ fires for a decade now. Outside starts with the promise of Unsettled, giving some glimpse that the musicians have soaked up a lot of 1950s reggae and ska as well as their most obvious antecedent, Bob Marley - particularly his mid/late-70s work. From there, slowly - at times very, very slowly - The Midnights creep towards their goal. It's immaculately played but feels redundant by the middle of the album, wafting along without purpose. Just when you think it might lift - lively up itself, as it were - it heads for the fog of lazy slow grooves. Regeneration is boredom whittled down into a song and Smoke on the Street lopes along with a slow flickering fade and then, inexplicably, there's a bizarre rush of key change and tempo change - as if to remind the listener that the musicians can actually play; or maybe it's to wake the listener up, the band offering a reminder that it's time for something else.
Another week, another pop diva with hip-hop flirtations. Here we have Jessica Mauboy, with guest spots by Snoop Dogg, Iyaz, Jay Sean and Ludacris. And, really, the biggest star-turn here is the vocoder, its presence felt on most tracks, slurring the meaningless words into place, buttering up the dodgy pitch and lame phrasing and allowing it to slide in and around the big crashes of the drum machine. Mauboy is 21, she failed in her bid to be Australian Idol but, as is so often the way with these absurd competitions, she is the one with the recording contract. She's been in a series of commercials, had a lead role in the Australian film Bran Nue Dae (released in 2010) and Get Em Girls is her second album. It follows 2008's Been Waiting. She is the biggest-selling finalist in Australian Idol history. She cannot sing a note on her own - and this album is a new low, proof the major labels couldn't care less so long as they can find something that might sell. It's a stretch of the term to even call this music.
Dance Music Will Tear Us Apart
Minuit has, almost unbelievably, managed to transcend the cliché of having a quirky-voiced female singing (not-so) sweet nothings over dance beats. The band has had some real triumphs, in terms of exposure. But then, if we're being honest, a great deal of the group's work is putrid, cloying, annoying and damn-near insulting. Recent single Aotearoa was nothing more than bandwagon jumping, a tourism campaign gone wrong (or right, depending on how you look at it). But it's not music. It's advertising. Here, Minuit's two producers (Ryan Beehre and Paul Dodge) cut up and craft beats around the lyrics of Ruth Carr. It still sounds like she is singing nothing whilst recovering from a stab-wound, whispering, rasping, cooing. It still sounds like vague trance vamps are being daubed in place for moody bass to trace around to create a sound that can be found in spaces in trendy bars where the lights are low and the prices are high. And it still sounds like Minuit has blocked all calls from 1997-2001 for fear that Lamb, Kosheen or Moloko might be calling, asking for their sound back.
I've enjoyed seeing Dukes live. The band does a nice line in vocal harmonies, helped in recent times by the addition of Lauren Mitchell (who independently records and tours as L.A. Mitchell). Brothers Matt and Jo Barus write no-frills pop music. But for Still Life, the band's second album, it is a very boring set of sounds - cookie-cutter radio fodder. Opener Time Is a Train sounds like a direct lift of something (anything) by The Wallflowers. And Do You Listen sounds like the worst kind of Christian rock: those bands that would tour schools for free; you'd watch and think the musicianship was okay - then you'd hear the hidden message. And in fact so much of the album plays out that way: songs that do not stand up to repeat listens, that are empty gestures. The catchy chorus of Vampires feels like a glee-club novelty. And it's probably the best song on the album. Confounding too, when you read that the label distributing this album has suggested it for people who like The Exponents or The Rolling Stones - that's just naming names, picking bands that people have heard of. What a joke.
Die Antwoord is a hip-hop/performance-art group of pop vandals from South Africa. Their name is Afrikaans for The Answer. And their album, $O$, certainly serves up plenty of questions. Why are people taking this band seriously? Why, on the back of a viral video sensation, are so many people with taste slumming down at the shallow end of the gene-pool and suggesting that this is good because it's - at least - "something different"? And just because a bunch of people have discovered something they think is slightly less mainstream does that make it worthwhile? These are questions I cannot shake when I listen to Die Antwoord. These are questions the band does not answer, even though they claim to in fact be The Answer. It sounds like a ghastly comic-book come to life; it sounds like clown music. It sounds like the answer is to avoid The Answer like the plague.
It's hard to believe that white trash fad Kid Rock is up to his seventh album. His southern rock mixed with rap shtick has softened and this is, essentially, a country-rock album. It sounds like the more recent Bon Jovi albums - even if it is aiming towards the more recent Tom Petty albums. It ticks a lot of boxes with a great cast assembled. Helping Rock to, er, rock, are David Hidalgo from Los Lobos, Chad Smith from The Red Hot Chili Peppers and Benmont Tench from Tom Petty's Heartbreakers. There are guest spots by Bob Seger and Sheryl Crow also; all help to align Kid Rock with the vaguely country pop-rock sound he is chasing. But the songs mean nothing and go nowhere. It all lopes along and is far less obnoxious than the normal Kid Rock music, but - and here's where you know it's bad - it feels like some rasping harmonica phone-ins, hackneyed raps and rudimentary riffs should come in. Could there be further proof that this album is dire? The worst elements of Rock's previous sound are actually what is missing.
Only One Flo (Part 1) was released at the end of 2010 and it's already been announced that Only One Flo (Part 2) will follow - sometime this year. He's attempting something similar to Nelly's Sweat/Suit suite, the difference being a staggering of the releases rather than the death knell that is the simultaneous release of twin volumes (just ask Bruce Springsteen). Flo Rida's Mail on Sunday (2008) was a breakout hit, largely due to an infectious track called Low - it was featured in a dance flick at the time too. But to hear it recut, recycled and reused (it was also served up in parts on 2009's R.O.O.T.S) shows the depth of this artist. Paddling pool pop - it knows that it's got an audience, there are some people hooked on the feel of Flo Rida's big, obvious songs. But it suggests he really does only have one flow. And you know that it will be repeated again, later this year, with Only One Flo (Part 2). Unless you want 2010's version of a cellphone ring, to replace the one you used in 2008, then updated in 2009 (all by the same artist) there really is nothing to hear here.
So, as I say, it's been a - mostly - good start to the year. But there will always be duds. And we shouldn't just ignore them. We need to warn people.
Any terrible albums you've heard from late last year or early this year that you were disappointed with - and that you feel you should warn people about?

lol @ DIE ANTWOORD - $O$. They were pretty damn amazing at BDO (I'd never heard of them when I saw them), but yeah that is a pretty bizarre album. I kinda liked it for a few days. The accent is quite a struggle to cope with. Might try it out again in a few months.
Been listening to King of Limbs since you blogged on it here, have become HEAVILY addicted to it, and then got In Rainbows since everyone was going on about it. Now they are my favorite band.
Very poorly titled article to have on the home page considering all that has gone in in 2011 already from cyclones, earthquakes to floods.
Bad Taste #2: It's a music blog, dude!
#2 But it is 2011, what else could the title be?
Clearly you have never seen Die Antwood live? Regardless of what they are like live, their music is awesome! Whether you are too shallow minded to see that because it is different, it is plague-ridden? Or are you getting to old to stay "hip" in the music industry, and that's why you blog about stuff like this when there are people dying and we actually don't care about the worst albums of the year. Keeping in mind the majority of this music was in 2010. If you were given them too late to review then I guess it's not your fault but then just don't talk about it throw them in the bin, people are already over them if they are as bad as you say they are...
Pointless blog with pointless contents and 3 comments to show for it.
Of course these albums are horrible: Just look at the styles of music they are!!! Pathetic.
the title on the stuff home page gave no indication of that, simply said worst of 2011
Re: Bad Taste #2 - I read this blog rarely, but everytime I do the comments are full of people who go out of their way to be nagging.
Whats with that?
I love your honesty.....MINUIT SUCKS!
As something of a Minuit fan I was delighted to read this: "putrid, cloying, annoying and damn-near insulting. Recent single Aotearoa was nothing more than bandwagon jumping, a tourism campaign gone wrong (or right, depending on how you look at it). But it's not music. It's advertising" - that's EXACTLY how I reacted to it from the first time I heard and saw it. Thank you!

Strength, style, business acumen, creativity, awareness…. these are just a few of the traits that a Made Woman possesses. When creating our "I Am a Made Woman" video with director/producer Trescher Chambers, we set out to showcase a handful of real women who, in their own respective elements, personify these attributes and many more.
We took a look at our immediate networks and were astounded by the successful women we've been fortunate to come in contact with over the years—five of whom became a part of bringing our vision to life:
Dawn Richard: this platinum-selling singer and former member of Danity Kane and Diddy Dirty Money recently launched her solo music career and is the first voice you hear in the video. A passionate musician with an eclectic, soulful sound, you can find out more about her recent solo project here: http://bit.ly/Hw2xZP
Eve Torres: WWE Diva, philanthropist, spokeswoman & instructor for the Gracie Women Empowered Self-defense program and former industrial and systems engineering major at USC (a.k.a. one smart cookie). Our current Made Woman of the Month, you can read more about what Eve is up to here: http://bit.ly/LTaMEe
Allison Torneros: this visual and graphic artist and entrepreneur has turned her artistic talents and passion into a lucrative career, recently showcasing her work at her first solo art show. Read our feature on her here: http://bit.ly/Mcg8Xe
Jaisy Geans: this former USC graduate is the manager of Nine Zero One Salon in West Hollywood and is pulling double duty by also embarking on a career in broadcasting. Jaisy knows how to juggle it all! She manages over 14 employees in a bustling West Hollywood salon, and does it with style.
Rachel Butler-Green: a professional dancer who splits her time between performing on stages around the world and teaching a community dance class, proves what is important to her when she says "I know giving back to the community makes me better."
These 5 women, in addition to a host of others, helped us to bring to life our vision of what a Made Woman truly is. By forgoing the use of actors—and instead paying tribute to real, hard-working women pursuing their dreams—we upheld the core mission of Made Woman Magazine. We hope that it entertains in addition to painting a clear picture of Made Woman Magazine is headed.

In high school I came up with a master plan for my life. I was going to excel academically and participate in extracurricular activities so that I could get into a good college. And the plan worked! But sadly, in my youthful shortsightedness, I didn't plan beyond getting there, and soon found myself in a sea of too many options. I didn't feel too bad though--everyone around me was feeling the same way…lost. I eventually figured it out and years later, as a working twenty-something, I realize these periods of feeling lost are cyclical. At different times in our lives we find our master plans don't stretch far enough and we are unsure of our next steps. This is where life coaches like Nailah Blades come in.
Naliah Blades is a certified life coach who started Polka Dot Coaching after going through her own period of feeling adrift and unsure. She graduated from USC with a degree in Communication and ended up working in sales and marketing for a packaging company. Finding herself stuck in a career that didn't quite fit, Nailah did some soul-searching and realized that when she thought about what she loved doing, she always came back to mentoring others. It hit her that her true calling would mean becoming a life coach--or as she calls it, "a clarity-maker for young women who are teetering on the edge of greatness."
But what does this really mean? Is "Life coaching" just a new-age term for therapy? Does she show up to her clients' jobs and cheer them on as they work? How do life coaches really operate? It seems like more people are using the services of life coaches and choosing this as a career path. The industry itself is booming. A study in the 2007 MarketData Report estimates that 40,000 people in the U.S. work as business or life coaches and the $2.4 billion business coaching market is growing at about 18% per year. When I got the chance to pick Nailah's brain about it I had so many questions. She explained that while therapy deals with understanding your current state of emotions and the causes from your past making you feel a certain way, life coaching is all about moving forward. "My clients are saying I'm here now, how do I move forward? And I say let's work on a plan to get you there" she tells me. Nailah hosts intense exploratory and planning sessions with her clients, asking them things like "What is your business vision? What problems are you solving?" She also has programs specifically tailored towards entrepreneurs which she calls "catapult sessions."
Once Nailah explained exactly what a life coach does, I realized how helpful this type of counseling is to people of all ages. A professional perspective on life goals and planning could be so helpful in getting you closer to your dreams. "I get excited because I can see the potential in my clients from the first session even if they can't," she says. She takes on about 10 clients per month and works one-on-one with them for about three months. She says the length of time is important so that they aren't rushed and it allows them to "understand who they are at their core. We brush this aside but it's really important." Once clients reach that "ah ha!" moment she doesn't leave them to figure out the rest on their own, but instead goes on to make sure her clients have a really clear, strategic plan to get their careers on the right path. Her clients are mostly female because she caters to ambitious, driven women who just need an extra boost to get ahead of the game. "I can see that they are totally vibrant in their lives, they just need a little clarity."
Some might wonder what they can learn from another twenty-something about getting ahead. But when you get to speak to Nailah, you realize she is absolutely fearless and her ability to communicate and encourage is so motivating I even felt empowered after our interview. The girl is good. And she is gaining a name for herself in her industry. She recently hosted a Fierce Leadership Summit in LA, gathering young women from many industries together and delving into what it means to take on a leadership role in the modern workplace. Nailah says that this topic is important to her because she believes "true leadership begins from within and radiates outward. You have to know yourself to be a good leader." She says her mission now is to help women connect and feel comfortable with their own innate greatness, "That is when you are able to lead from an authentic place." This is just a little taste of the truth she dished out regularly throughout our conversation. And her insights have helped so many already. In fact, her mission and work with Polka Dot Coaching was so in line with the goals of Made Woman Magazine she became regular contributor to our magazine.
A strong leader herself, Nailah took the plunge and became a full time entrepreneur about a year ago. She left her corporate job, where she worked with brands like Cheerios, General Mills and Dole, and devoted her days and nights to making Polka Dot Coaching grow. "It was hard to even walk into my boss' office and tell him the news. But once I did I felt so much lighter." Leaving behind a life path that did not inspire her changed the way she views life overall, even though not everyone was supportive at first. "People didn't get it. But you have to find your support system" she explains. She went on to create measurable goals for herself based on milestones for her business and analytics to track her audience. She says her youth and the fact that she is all too familiar with that "lost period" in her career make her better equipped to coach young, modern female professionals. "It's not just about working in pajamas for me. I really do feel called to help women and girls reach their full potential. We don't play as big as we should. We don't take those risks."
Nailah plans to host more conferences in the future and is planning to co-host another one soon. You can find out about her one-on-one coaching sessions and her program for entrepreneurs here. She is definitely a twenty-something on the rise. But the best part is that she is taking other women to the top with her.
God bless the great orators of the world. Those who can give insightful speeches that resonate long after the event is over. We love videos of great speeches because on a bad day you can pull one up and remember why you should continue your quest to be MADE. Here are a few of the speeches that hit home for our staff.

A few months ago I climbed a mountain. Yes. You read that right. I left the comfort of my LA home and embarked on an adventure that involved flying to Portland, driving 2 hours through the Washington countryside and climbing a 12,000 foot mountain with a bunch of people I had never met. Call me crazy.
Like most of the difficult things I've tackled in my life, I had completely underestimated this climb. I was not fully prepared for the sheer amount of physical strength I would be required to display. I was also unprepared for how psychologically and emotionally transformational the whole trip would be. I learned a lot about myself while I was up there on Mt. Adams. I think my revelations might strike a chord with you too. Here's what I now know is true:
You're underestimating yourself.
You are completely undervaluing your strength and power. Stop it. Own up to how unbelievably incredible you are. We all see it and can't believe that you can't. That tough stuff you're dealing with now? You can get through it because you're strong. Think you're not good enough to get the job or land the promotion or launch that business? You are but you're shading your brilliance with your self-doubt. Trust me, you are so much more than you are giving yourself credit for.
You are undeniably brave
I'll be honest, if someone had asked me in the days leading up to my trip if I thought I was a brave person I would have said no. After going through my mountain climbing adventure, I can't believe that I ever would have thought that but it's true. You are brave too. You're out there traveling around the globe or working hard to support your family. You're being yourself unabashedly or you're doing the work to uncover what lies deep inside. You're chasing your dream, you're speaking up for what's right, you're baring your soul, you're talking to strangers.
You are Fucking Brave.
I need you to believe it.
No one is judging you.
Honestly everyone is so caught up with their own stuff that they hardly have time to notice all of your "flaws." That assumption that you have about 'everybody thinking how lame you would be if you do x' is a false one. People care deeply about you – the person you are at your core. They care much less about the hard, polished shell you're presenting to the world. They don't care about your missteps or your weaknesses or your flaws. They're not interested in judging you. Plus as we already established in the 1st point, they probably think you're so much more awesome than you think you are.
You have a different definition of success and failure than anyone else. And that's perfectly okay.
I wasn't able to summit the mountain. I got to about 8,000 feet before I had to listen to my body and call it quits. As I descended back down to the camp with the smaller team, I started to beat up on myself. I felt like a failure. Luckily that didn't last too long before I realized what I had just done. Once I reflected on the whole experience, I immediately realized how successful the whole adventure had been. My definition of success for my trip was not solely tied up in whether or not I summited the mountain. I had signed up for the trip because I wanted an adventure, I wanted to try something new, I wanted to learn about the principles of hardiness. The trip was a success on all those counts plus some. Stop measuring your life by someone else's definition of success and failure. Define what it means to fail or succeed for yourself and then live up to it. It will save you gobs of self-abuse in the future.
People are awesome, believe in their goodness.
This trip restored my faith in the goodness of people. Generally, people rock. They want to help, they want you to succeed, they are waiting with open arms ready to assist you. And they want to believe in the goodness of you. Believe in people, they generally don't disappoint.
The biggest takeaway from the whole journey is the importance of stepping outside of your comfort zone. Do things that make you uncomfortable, you'll learn so much about yourself in the process.

MOBILE, Ala. – On Tuesday, the Southern League named the South Division representatives for the Southern League All-Star Game to be played on Monday, July 13 at Regions Park. Eight BayBears were chosen, including starting pitcher Jarrod Parker who won't be available because of the All-Star Futures Game in St. Louis and catcher Orlando Mercado who has been promoted to Triple-A Reno.
The BayBears that will be participating in Southern League All-Star festivities are outfielders Cyle Hankerd and Chris Rahl, infielders Sean Coughlin, Pedro Ciriaco, and Ricardo Sosa, and starting pitcher Barry Enright.
Rahl, a third-year BayBear, has also been strong with a .296 average, 11 stolen bases,
and a team-leading 42 runs scored. Rahl has played outstanding defense in right and center,
not having committed an error all season long. He has been very streaky
offensively, at times seeming like he belongs in the major leagues while others
making you wonder whether he is in the right profession. But the good
times have most certainly overshadowed the bad this season.
Hankerd, in his second season with the BayBears, has been rewarded as a Southern League Hitter of the Week this year and is among the league leaders with a .316 average and 43 RBI. He leads all BayBears in hits, doubles, RBI, and total bases, but has cooled off considerably in June after a blistering hot first two months of the season.
Cyle Hankerd
Coughlin has only appeared in 41 games for the BayBears but has made a delving impression with a team-high seven home runs, playing primarily at first base. Coughlin also leads the team in batting average, on-base percentage, slugging, and OPS. He is playing more at catcher lately, however, since Orlando Mercado was promoted to Reno last week.
Mercado, a fan-favorite, was hitting .304 with 31 RBI at the time of his call-up to the Aces. He also pitched two innings when manager Hector de la Cruz was short in the bullpen and played excellent defensively behind the dish. He had thrown out 30% of would-be basestealers at the time of his promotion.
Ciriaco, the club's primary shortstop, is hitting .262 with a team-high 16
stolen bases and has perhaps the best defensive infield arm in the league.
He makes highlight-reel defensive plays on a nightly basis, showing an
athleticism that Mobile hasn't seen at the shortstop position since the days of
Ozzie Smith.
Sosa caught fire out of the gate, batting .365 with 4 homers and 18 RBI in the month of April. He slumped to .198 with no homers and six RBI in May before leveling off in June. Overall, Sosa has punched out seven taters as well for the BayBears while smacking a .267 average and driving in 35 runs. He won Player of the Week honors on April 20th. Sosa was similarly strong last April, batting .327 with five homers and 24 RBI en route to leading the Visalia Oaks with 13 homers on the season.
Ricardo Sosa
Enright, a first-year starting pitcher for the BayBears, has been a model of consistency while posting a 3.92 ERA. He averages 5 2/3 innings per start and rarely allows more than three earned runs in a game. His five victories and 54 strikeouts have him tied for the team lead, while his 1.29 WHIP is best among the club's current starting pitchers.
Parker has the lowest ERA (2.87) among the team's starting pitchers and has fanned 51 hitters in 53.1 innings. He was briefly on the disabled list after being struck by a hard line drive, but has allowed just one earned run in each of his two starts since.

When a longtime contractor customer commits to improving flatwork productivity with the purchase of a laser-guided screed, the concrete producer can share in the success. However, keeping up with the productivity rate of a laser screed requires a higher level of communication and coordination than ever.
"We touch base with all the variables before going on a big pour," says Tom Williams, plant manager at Port City Redi Mix Co., Muskegon, Mich. For scheduling, "We like to shoot for the 5 p.m. to midnight range. It's easier for our guys to put in a workday and do an additional 5 or 6 hours instead of getting up in the middle of the morning and working through the afternoon."
Giving contractors discounts for using screeds help Port City increase truck turnaround, Williams adds.The article includes a case study of efficient producer-laser screed contractor interaction, a 556,500-square-foot industrial warehouse slab in Fayetteville, Ark. Tune Trucking, Fayetteville, was the producer on the project.Included is information about the benefits of using front-discharge mixer trucks when supplying a laser-screed project.
The article also includes related stories about how paving mixers and spring-loaded chute covers can increase truck turnaround, how laser screeds have allowed contractors to get better F-numbers on floors, and the extra attention concrete mixes for large floors require.

The following is the official TNA "Lockdown" pay-per-view promotional poster for this year's event:
Not one of the best but i'm glad the headliners are on it for a change.
These two will put on a good show, I reckon Roode will retain.
Great main event…. weak poster! It builds no suspense for the match. They should have had them in a staredown so you can feel their "hatred" of each other. If I was a casual fan and didn't know the storyline, I wouldn't no if these guys are friends or enemies by looking at this poster.
looks pretty boring to me.
Awesome can't wait for TNA Lockdown.

An Innovative Technique for Rapid Product Development by Using Stereolithography Process and Microwave Radiation
Yarlagadda, Prasad K. & Berg, Klaus (2001) An Innovative Technique for Rapid Product Development by Using Stereolithography Process and Microwave Radiation. In All India Machine Tool Design and Research Conference, Dec 2001, India.
|PDF (160kB)
This work attempts to investigate the feasibility of curing epoxy resin layers using microwaves for physical models and prototypes. Investigations have been carried out to use epoxy resins or a combination of epoxy resin mixed with a different material in powder form followed by a curing process using microwave radiation. The microwave radiation supports the polarisation of epoxy resin through heating based on the effect of the dielectric property. The curing process of the epoxy resin using microwave radiation takes place more rapidly and supports the temperature rise, as the dielectric value of the epoxy resin rises with an increase in temperature, primarily through changes in frequency. The maximum increase in temperature takes place at a critical frequency. The penetration of the microwaves through the epoxy resin is controlled by the wavelength of microwave radiation as a function of the frequency. Reducing the operational frequency of microwave radiation compensates an increase in thickness of the layer. In this work attempts have been made to determine the relationship between curing time, curing temperature for different mixtures of epoxy resin and hardener. The physical model is built using the layer technique, in which the epoxy resin or mixture of epoxy resin and material powder is applied as a thin film sprayed on top of the previous layer.

RSA No.2091 of 2007 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH RSA No.2091 of 2007 Date of Decision: 14.1.2009 Karnal Improvement Trust, Karnal ..Appellant Vs. Brij Mohan & Ors. ..Respondents Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Vinod K.Sharma Present: Mr.Mahavir Sandhu, Advocates, for the appellant. Mr.V.K.Jindal, Advocate, for respondents No.1 to 4. Mr.Saurat Garg, Advocate, --- Vinod K.Sharma,J. (Oral)
This order shall dispose of RSA Nos. 2091 to 2094 of 2008 titled Karnal Improvement Trust, Karnal Vs. Brij Mohan & Ors., Karnal Improvement Trust, Karnal Vs. M/s Agia Ram & Company & Ors., Karnal Improvement Trust, Karnal Vs. M/s Haryana Agricultural Corporation & Ors., and Karnal Improvement Trust, Karnal Vs. Inder Pal Singh & Ors., as RSA No.2091 of 2007 2 common question of law and facts are involved in all these four appeals.
For the sake of brevity, facts are being taken from RSA No.2091 of 2007.
The plaintiff/respondents filed a suit for declaration to the effect that fixing of price of SCFs allotted to the plaintiff their predecessor- in-interest and the notice served as a consequence thereof for payment of Rs.,5,67,348/- calculated by adding interest to the concessional price fixed was illegal and not binding on the rights of the plaintiffs.
Notice for resumption was also challenged. The plaintiffs claimed that the calculation of the price, interest claimed as well as notice issued for resumption of the properties was against the provision of Punjab Town Improvement Act (for short the Act) and the Land Disposal Rules (for short the Rules) framed by the appellant/defendants as also against the directions given by the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India.
The plaintiff/respondents claimed that they were entitled to allotment of SCF on reserved price as defined in the Rules, however, qua SCF No.10-A the matter stood closed. Relief of injunction was also sought against the appellant/defendants from recovering the amount in pursuance to the notice.
A notification under section 36 of the Act for implementation of town improvement scheme was issued on 8.8.1963 and the notification under section 42 of the Act was issued on 22.7.1966. The land including the land owned and possessed by the plaintiffs was acquired and the compensation in respect of acquired property was assessed by the Land RSA No.2091 of 2007 3 Acquisition Collector.
References made by the plaintiff/respondents were dismissed for non-prosecution.
Though the plaintiff/respondents failed to appear in the Reference Court, however, keeping in view that the learned court was bound to answer the reference made under section 18 of the Land Acquisition Act, it was held that the compensation granted was just and equitable and did not require any enhancement.
It is also not in dispute that the plaintiff/respondents claiming themselves to be displaced persons sought allotment of plot on concessional rate which, in fact, was allotted to them and 25 per cent of the tentative price stands paid.
The plaintiff/respondents disputed the calculation of the principal amount as well as other charges and interest claimed by claiming it to be excessive. The writ petition filed by the plaintiff/respondents to challenge fixing of concession of price was dismissed by this court.
Letters Patent Appeal also met the same fate.
M/s Rama Fruit Agency one of the allottees whose land was also acquired but under a different scheme i.e. Scheme No.37 was not made allotment as no SCF was available with the appellant/defendants.
M/s Rama Fruit Agency, therefore, was allotted one SCF under Scheme No.5 i.e. the scheme under which the plaintiff/respondents were allotted SCF. Concessional rate fixed as well as interest claimed was challenged by M/s Rama Fruit Agency. The writ petition was dismissed. RSA No.2091 of 2007 4 Letters Patent Appeal filed by the M/s Rama Fruit Agency also met with the same fate. However, M/s Rama Fruit Agency preferred special leave petition wherein on notice having been issued to the appellant/defendants a concession was granted and the SLP was disposed of by passing the following order:-
" THE PETITION FOR SPECIAL LEAVE TO APPEAL above-mentioned being mentioned before this Court on the 23rd day of May, 1984,, upon hearing counsel for the Petitioners THIS COURT DOTH modify its ORDER dated 27th April, 1984 shall read as follows:-
"We are of the view that the price payable by the petitioners for allotment of shop under scheme 5 should be on the basis indicated in para 3 of the counter affidavit filed on behalf of the respondent by Mr.P.S.Chawla, Land Officer, Karnal Improvement Trust, Karnal. We accordingly issue an order directing that the price payable by the petitioners for the shop under scheme 5, handed over to them, shall be calculated on the basis of para 3 of the affidavit dated 26th April, 1984 and this will be completed within 3 months from today. In computing such price the petitioners shall be given adjustment of the land which was in their occupation and which they have surrendered in 1975 excluding the Phad land. The amount of the price so determined shall be paid by the petitioners to the Improvement Trust, Karnal in two equal instalments first RSA No.2091 of 2007 5 instalment to the paid within a period of 3 months and the second instalment representing the balance together with interest at the rate of 12% per annum from the date of demand within a further period of three months thereafter.
Reference made by them with regard to their claim pertaining to scheme 37 shall stand withdrawn and the petitioners will forgo the amount of compensation assessed for those properties by the Land Acquisition Collector. If they fail to pay any instalement the relief given to them will stand vacated. If the compensation payable for the acquisition of the land is enhanced in the Reference pending before the Court the Petitioners agree to pay and are hereby directed to pay their share of such enhanced compensation as may be determined according to the rate, with interest at the rate of 12% per annum from the date of the demand."
AND THIS COURT DOTH FURTHER ORDER that this Order be punctually observed and carried to execution by all concerned"
The plaintiffs in the suit, therefore, claim that they are to be treated at par with M/s Rama Fruit Agency for the purpose of calculation of price and interest payable in view of the allotment as they are also displaced persons.
It is also the case of the plaintiff/respondents that the amount of compensation payable for acquisition of land was to be adjusted against the RSA No.2091 of 2007 6 price payable for SCF.
The suit was contested by the defendant-appellants preliminary on the plea that the writ petition filed by plaintiffs in this court was dismissed. The appeal against the said order failed and even in the SLP Hon'ble Supreme Court did not grant the relief to the plaintiff/respondents as granted to M/s Rama Fruit Agency and therefore, their case was not similar to that of M/s Rama Fruit Agency.
However, this plea of the learned counsel cannot be accepted. Hon'ble Supreme Court declined to grant relief to the plaintiff/respondents only because a stand was taken by the defendant/appellants as taken in civil court that the plaintiffs were not similarly situated and therefore, were not entitled to the same treatment.
Hon'ble Supreme Court observed that as there were disputed questions of facts in the case, therefore the plaintiffs should approach the civil court to seek their remedy.
Learned counsel for the appellant/defendants further contends that the land of M/s Rama Fruit Agency was acquired under Scheme No.37 but it could not be allotted SCF as there was no SCF available under the said scheme and it was because of this that they were adjusted under Scheme No.5 and therefore, plaintiff could not be equated with M/s Rama Fruit Agency.
The plea of the learned counsel for the appellants has been rightly rejected by the learned lower appellate court as it is not in dispute that the plaintiff/respondents as well as M/s Rama Fruit Agency were RSA No.2091 of 2007 7 allotted SCFs under Scheme No.5 and at the rate which was the subject- matter of dispute by M/s Rama Fruit Agency. Though learned trial court accepted the plea of the defendants and dismissed the suit, however, in appeal learned lower appellate court decreed the suit and has directed the defendant/appellants to treat the appellants at par with M/s Rama Fruit Agency and charge the same price and interest payable as has been claimed from M/s Rama Fruit Agency as per order of Hon'ble Supreme Court, referred to above.
Thus, no error can be found with the judgment and decree passed by the learned lower appellate court.
Learned counsel for the appellants rightly points out that while treating the plaintiff/respondents at par with M/s Rama Fruit Agency learned lower appellate court has granted relief qua interest to the plaintiff/respondents to which they are not be entitled to.
The learned lower appellate court has ordered that interest on the amount would be calculated from the date of passing of the decree i.e. 30.4.1997. This part of the relief cannot be sustained as it is the case of the plaintiff/respondents themselves that they are to be treated at par with M/s Rama Fruit Agency. Once the appellant/defendants have been held entitled to charge interest from M/s Rama Fruit Agency w.e.f. 21.1.1985 it is not understandable as to how the plaintiff/respondents are to pay interest only from 30.4.2007.
Learned lower appellate court was, thus, wrong in giving this part of benefit. The fault was with the plaintiffs for not approaching the RSA No.2091 of 2007 8 court well in time, they cannot be allowed to take benefit of their own wrong.
These appeal do not raise any other substantial questions of law for determination by this court.
However, keeping in view the fact that fixation of interest from the date of passing of order by the learned lower appellate court is contrary to the judgment passed by Hon'ble Supreme Court with which parity was claimed by the plaintiff/respondents it is ordered that the appellant/defendants are entitled to interest as charged from M/s Rama Fruit Agency on the price fixed w.e.f. 21.1.1985 from the plaintiff/respondents also.
The plaintiff/respondents through their counsel have undertaken that the demanded amount along with interest in terms of the calculation made in the case of M/s Rama Fruit Agency, would be paid within one month of the receipt of a demand and in case no such demand is received within one month it shall be the duty of the plaintiff/respondents to collect the same from the office of the defendants and clear the same within a month from the date of collection.
With the above modification in the judgment and decree, passed by the learned lower court is upheld.
Appeal disposed of.

Written by: Benjamin E. Zeller
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami (1896-1977), known as Prabhupada among his disciples, founded ISKCON on July 13, 1966. Bhaktivedanta is the founder of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, and ISKCON members recognize him as a spiritual master in the sampradaya, or lineage of teachers, that stretches back to the founder of Gaudiya Vaishnavism, Chaitanya (1486-1533).
A Hindu reformer active in 16th-century Bengal, Chaitanya taught a system of exclusive devotion to the Hindu God Krishna, whom members of his lineage recognize as the "Supreme Personality of Godhead." The hagiographic literature declares that his own disciples began to recognize Chaitanya as an avatar, or appearance of the divine, even during Chaitanya's lifetime, and today ISKCON members look back on the founder of their lineage as not only a religious teacher, but as an incarnation of Krishna himself. Chaitanya introduced both the main theological concept of Gaudiya Vaishnavism, namely the centrality of Krishna, as well as its core practice, that of devotionalism, or bhakti, as expressed through public congregational chanting. Chaitanya also taught the need to publicly preach about Krishna and to seek devotees, providing the proselytizing impetus that later led to ISKCON.
If Chaitanya represents the foundation of ISKCON's parent lineage, Bhaktivedanta's own guru, Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati (1874-1937), represents the bridge between the received tradition and the modern Hare Krishna movement. Born within a Gaudiya Vaishnava family, Bhaktisiddhanta sought to return the Chaitanya tradition to its roots, and also modernize it for a new century. Many of Bhaktisiddhanta's teachings considered social issues such as the reform of social support institutions, but he primarily focused on the Hindu caste structure.
Chaitanya had implicitly rejected caste divisions among his own disciples, permitting Brahmins (priestly caste members) and non-Brahmins to become followers, and explicitly taught a single bhakti (devotional) path of worship accessible to all people, regardless of caste or station. However, in the nearly four centuries since the tradition's founding, caste had become stratified within the Gaudiya lineage, with firm divisions between Brahmins, lower caste devotees, and the large number of untouchable (caste-less) Krishna devotees in Bengal.
Bhaktisiddhanta worked to overcome these barriers through both words and action. In addition to speaking and publishing against caste divisions, Bhaktisiddhanta ignored the caste identity of those who sought initiation from him into the Gaudiya Vaishnava lineage, granting all such individuals the mantras and sacred thread normally reserved for Brahmins. In doing so, Bhaktisiddhanta laid the groundwork for the spread of the tradition to the West. Since traditional Hinduism considers Westerners completely outside the caste system and therefore excluded from such religious rites as initiation, A.C. Bhaktivedanta would not have been able to initiate his American and European -- and later African and East Asian -- disciples without his guru Bhaktisiddhanta's example.

Green-tinted gold. Tightly wound lime and pink grapefruit aromas open slowly to reveal a gently "smoky mineral and floral character, with a light kiss of green cardamom adding interest. Very fresh on the palate, with youthful citrus and green apple flavors giving way to slightly riper blood orange and pear. Finishes firm and dry, with serious grip. This only hints at its potential, and I'd advise anyone drinking it for what's in the bottle rather than on the label to stash it away for at least another five years, minimum."-93+
