Dash offense too much for Keys in finale
Frederick falls 8-2, drops series
By Mike Mueller / Frederick Keys | June 30, 2013 5:22 PM ET
Winston-Salem scored a run or more in all but three innings, beating the Frederick Keys 8-2 Sunday night. The Dash's win earned them a series-victory in the three game set at Harry Grove Stadium.
Winston-Salem starter Chris Beck (7-8) won his seventh game of the season, throwing seven innings and allowing two run on seven hits and a walk, while striking out four. Keys starter Luc Rennie, making his first start at the Advanced-A level, held his own through four innings, but got in trouble in the fifth and would be charged with a total of four runs in the game. He took the loss, falling to 1-1.
In front of 6,233 at Harry Grove Stadium, the Keys fell to 4-6 in the second half and 38-41 overall.
David Herbek's two-out single to center in the second inning gave Winston-Salem (6-4, 44-36) a 1-0 lead, plating Rangel Ravelo, who had doubled. Ravelo's run nearly didn't count, as Jeremy Farrell was tagged out at third just as Ravelo touched home.
An error by Keys shortstop Sammie Starr extended Winston-Salem's third inning and led to the Dash's second run of the game. Starr failed to glove Joey DeMichele's bouncing grounder, allowing Joe De Pinto, who singled, to advance to second with no outs. After a fly-out to center and a pop out to second, Kevan Smith flared a ball to right field to score De Pinto, putting the Dash ahead 2-0.
Rennie, making just the third start of his professional career and first above the short-season-A level, struck out the side in the fourth but lost his command in the top of the fifth, a frame that saw two more Dash runs cross the plate.
Rennie allowed a leadoff homer to De Pinto and then walked the bases loaded with one out. Left-hander Zach Fowler then relieved Rennie and walked home the Dash's fourth run of the game. Fowler would strike out Jeremy Farrell and get Grant Buckner to fly out, limiting the damage to one run.
Rennie pitched 4.1 innings, allowed five hits and four runs, three earned, while walking four and fanning four.
Frederick countered the Dash's two-run fifth with their first run against Beck in the bottom of the inning on a broken-bat RBI infield single by Starr that cut their deficit to 4-1. But the Dash scored three more times off Fowler in the sixth to blow the game open.
Leading off the inning, David Herbek reached on a two-base error by third baseman Jason Esposito and DeMichele singled him home. Adam Heisler walked and with two outs, Smith doubled him and DeMichele home, putting Winston-Salem ahead 7-1.
Nicky Delmonico led off the bottom of the sixth with his 13th homer of the season and brought the Keys back within five. A Dash run in the eighth, courtesy of Smith's bases-loaded double-play ball, set the final score.
Casey Jarrett relieved Beck and threw two scoreless innings for Winston-Salem. Fowler pitched 1.2 innings and allowed three runs, none of which were earned.
In the seventh, former starter Zach Petersime made his debut out of the Keys' bullpen throwing sidearm. He recorded a scoreless inning, but was responsible for the run that scored in the eighth. David Walters recorded the final six outs for Frederick.
Jerome Pena and Brenden Webb were the only Keys to record multi-hit games, each picking up two singles. The Keys' only extra-base hit of the game, a double, came off the bat of Christian Walker.
Smith drove in three for the Dash and went 2-for-4 and DeMichele picked up two hits and scored three times.
The Keys' homestand continues with a three-game series against Wilmington, the first contest slated for a 7 p.m. start Monday. Lefty Trent Howard starts for the Keys against Blue Rocks right-hander Kellen Moen.

The real scoop? Or some media spin control after the fact? You be the judge.
New York Jets owner Woody Johnson claims his team "passed" on Peyton Manning in favor of incumbent starter Mark Sanchez.
During a TV interview with Neil Cavuto on Fox Business channel, Johnson predicted a "growth spurt" from Sanchez who just got a contract extension.
When Cavuto asked Johnson if his club "passed" on Manning, the Jets owner replied: "We passed on him. Absolutely."
Later he calls the ex-Indianapolis Colts QB "maybe the best QB ever" to have played the game.
THE HUDDLE: Manning to meet with Titans Wednesday
Fast-forward to 4-minute mark of Fox interview for Manning portion. During the beginning, Johnson discusses his support of Republican contender Mitt Romney.
So are you buying what Johnson's selling? Or is he trying to kiss and make up with Sanchez after flirting with the 4-time NFL MVP?

Windows 8 looks a lot like Windows Phone 7. And that is meant as a compliment.
Microsoft demonstrated the next version of its operating system at the All Things D conference on a prototype touch-screen tablet as well as laptops with a keyboard and mouse.
Early headline: The new Windows is a lot prettier than its familiar predecessor. The touch interface is based on customizable live tiles similar to what Microsoft has on its smartphones. The new start screen replaces the start button, tiles and taskbar every Windows user has lived with. That more familiar-looking Windows apparently isn't gone for good however — tap a desktop icon for an Office app such as Excel, for example, and Windows looks, well, like Windows.
Under the hood, Windows 8 will include a new set of tools and services developers can take advantage of. But the new operating system (whatever it ends up being called) can run all regular Windows 7 applications, says Steven Sinofsky, the president of the Windows and Windows Live Division at the company.
Sinofsky won't spill the beans on when the new Windows is coming, but it won't be as early as this fall. "Right now we're focusing on getting a release done," he says. Microsoft is planning to reveal more at his developer's conference in the fall.
Of course, Microsoft just gave off a flavor of the new Windows. There are lingering questions having to do with boot-up times, distribution and pricing and the type of annoying "craplet" software that might be preloaded by computer manufacturers, an issue raised by conference questioner Walt Mossberg. And, asked by Mossberg about security on Windows 8, Sinofsky says, "I think it always will be a good idea to run security software."

Fear of 2008 redux jolted GK-I traders
Five years after it had been targeted by the Indian Mujahideen, fear returned to haunt south Delhi's Greater Kailash-I on Monday evening.delhi Updated: Feb 25, 2013 23:42 IST
Five years after it had been targeted by the Indian Mujahideen, fear returned to haunt south Delhi's Greater Kailash-I on Monday evening.
Around 5:30 pm, a suspicious motorcycle bearing the registration number of another state and parked below the RP Bhavan in the M-block sent shopkeepers and shoppers into a tizzy.
"There was something odd about the two-wheeler," said Aarti Thakur, a local resident. "It was parked in an unusual way and gave the impression that it had been abandoned with a purpose."
What added to their sense of foreboding, said the market's trader's welfare association president Rajinder Soni, was a black leather bag hanging mysteriously on one of its sides.
"We immediately called the police and told them that we feared it could be a bomb," Soni said.
On September 13, 2008, a blast rocked the M-block market in GK-I. Investigation had revealed that the explosive had been kept in a container on a bike parked in the parking.
The police rushed to the spot and cordoned-off the area. They were joined by a team of the district police's Bomb Disposal Squad even as efforts to trace the two-wheeler's owner were initiated.
"Fortunately, we were able to trace and summon him to the spot. The first thing he was asked to do was to let us check the bag - which revealed that the entire thing was a misunderstanding," an officer said.

Drew Barrymore & Will Kopelman: Family Manhattan Stroll
Taking advantage of some downtime, Drew Barrymore and her husband Will Kopelman teamed up for a jaunt around New York City this afternoon (January 17).
All bundled up for the chilly weather, the proud parents pushed baby Olive's stroller up the street and chatted with each other as they navigated the Manhattan landscape.
Drew recently shared that although her career is awesome, she's laser-focused on maintaining her family over everything else.
"I will literally fight like a lion to keep my family happy and intact. Maybe I wouldn't feel that way if I had had a great family growing up," she explained.

Have Pediatric Questions? Ask a Pediatrician.
Thanks for using Just Answer.
I am Dr. SS. I will try my best to help you.
Is it improving with change of position?
Flat spot is seen in infants due to position during sleep.
It usually improves by its own if you take care to avoid positioning on that side as much possible.
You can wait a few more weeks to see any improvement.
If it does not improve then doctor can prescribe special helmet for your baby so that there will not be any pressure on that side of the head.
Try to put him on tummy if you are around and can watch closely.
Sometimes spasm of the muscle of the neck can cause the baby to adopt such position.
So he can get more pressure on one side.
Bony changes in the skull can be a factor rarely.
When he is awake please try to hold him up to lessen the pressure.
I would also suggest to show it to his doctor.
If you need any more help please let me know.
If you have any query, please feel free to ask.

What Do Women Really Want?
It is so true. A great sense of humor makes guys so much better looking.
For me I'll always pick the Kevin James-s in the world because he's funny. If you can make me laugh–basically you're hot!
Women usually say the most important quality they look for in a guy is a sense-of-humor. And according to a new study, women really are attracted to men with a sense-of-humor . . . because we think good-looking men are funny. I agree with that, I think if we see a good looking-man, we want him to be funny and we expect so much more from him.
Is sense of humor a huge "hot" factor for you?

… and I have not yet seen a single play to "critique" in the new year … but the season is about to swing into action. I'm having withdrawal symptoms!!! The overall positive experience and privilege of regularly peering in on lifestyles, concepts, and viewpoints, other than my own … through "live" theatrical productions, and then being able to "spread the word" to you in my column, is one of the joys of my life. If you are not a "theatergoer" already, I do hope you will give it a try this year. Of course not all productions are as worthy as others … but supporting the magical feast of talent available to us in Los Angeles can be most rewarding! I have eight upcoming plays scheduled in the near future to see and tell you all about … so do keep tuning in….
Mark Your Calendars : Two enticing shows both opening Feb. 2.
A Los Angeles Premiere presented by Interact Theatre Group. Written by Richard Broadhurst, and directed by Anita Khanzadian, this promises to be a "slice of life" gem. Taking place on a park bench in Central Park … a disgruntled senior gent ponders the choices he has left, to make his life count. He finds his favorite bench occupied by a disruptive stranger, who interferes with his contemplation. Starring two fine actors, Eddie Jones and John Towey, and featuring Kelly Lohman and Matt Fowler … I expect this to be a thought provoking evening of theater. For early booking call (818) 765-8732. Opening at The Avery Schreiber Theatre in NoHo.
And the World Goes 'Round
Written by the highly respected, multi-award winning team of Kander (music) and Ebb (lyrics), whose collaboration spans decades … this should be a musical treat! Intermingling humor, romance, and drama, featuring such beloved classics as "Cabaret," "Maybe This Time," "All That Jazz," and others. A sparkling cast of five will surely take us on an uplifting journey. For early booking call (323) 960-4418. At the NoHo Arts Center.
Oops! In last week's column, when mentioning Stepping Out, opening soon at Lonny Chapman Theatre – somehow its talented and much loved director's name was misspelled. Apologies to STAN MAZIN!
Back next week with my reviews on "Menopause the Musical" and "Giving up is Hard to Do…." both of which are already getting a lot of "buzz!"

"Sandwich Boyfriend" Expected To Propose After Girlfriend Prepares 300th Snack
Let's play choose your own relationship adventure. Suppose one day you make your boyfriend a turkey and Swiss sandwich on toasted wheat bread. (This would never happen in my world because I don't cook, but I am suspending disbelief for the sake of the game.) Then imagine that after he devours your sandwich he says: "Honey, you're 299 sandwiches away from an engagement ring!" Do you: A) Break up with him because that's an exceptionally bizarre and kind of sexist proposition and you're not down with trying to "earn" a ring or B) Step up to the plate and prove that you are wife material by making him 300 sandwiches and and blogging about it?
In a somewhat disturbing New York Post profile, which reads as outdated advice about how to prove you'll make a great wifey, Page Six reporter Stephanie Smith recounts how she took on the challenge of making her boyfriend Eric (described as a "Star Wars" obsessed Alexander Skarsgård look-alike) 300 sammies in exchange for a ring. Because to him, "sandwiches are like kisses or hugs. Or sex." You can read all about Smith's quest to woo Sandwich Boyfriend with cold cuts on wheat in enough time "to get engaged, married and have babies before [exiting her] childbearing years" on her blog, 300Sandwiches.com. Oh, she also shares her gourmet sammie recipes.
Now on sandwich 177, Smith still wants to "get engaged and get married and live happily ever after," but says she's "put less pressure on the race to the
ring 300th sandwich and is just enjoying cooking with Eric."
"Today, I've made and blogged about 176 sandwiches. Over the months, my creations have grown more complex — lobster rolls, bánh mìs, pulled pork. No matter what's on the menu, Eric smiles and says thank you. He's just happy I cook for him at all," Smith writes.
And Sandwich Boyfriend? He has some sage, 1950's-style advice for all the women who dream of being wives:
"You women read all these magazines to get advice on how to keep a man, and it's so easy. We're not complex. Just do something nice for us. Like make a sandwich."
If only it were that simple, Sandwich Boyfriend. Let's see if he proposes after the next 124 meals. [NYPost]

Project status: In progress
The current classification of the cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) is Vulnerable, VU C2a(i). This classification means that it is considered to have a high risk of extinction in the wild, that the estimated population is fewer than 10,000 mature cheetahs and that there is a continuing decline in the numbers of mature cheetahs.
Cheetah conservation organisations in southern Africa face the daunting task of ensuring the long-term viability of wild cheetah populations. In South Africa, Botswana, and Namibia, relocation is one of several methods used to conserve cheetahs. This involves trapping cheetahs that are perceived by landowners to be problem animals and releasing them into other areas. Another key challenge for the conservation organisations is to educate the local community about the importance of preserving this endangered species.
Read details
Researchers meet with cheetah conservationists in South Africa.
To meet these challenges, QUT organised workshops with cheetah conservationists from Namibia, Botswana, and South Africa. The workshops used Bayesian Networks (BNs) to model cheetah conservation issues and to represent current expert knowledge. BNs are popular for initial modelling of complex and multi-faceted environmental issues such as predator relocations, wild population viability and human-predator conflict.
A BN is a mathematical model that consists of a graphical depiction of variables and a probabilistic framework describing the strength of the relationships between the variables. BNs are a useful statistical tool for collating, organising and formalising information such as data, model outputs, secondary sources and expert knowledge about the issue of concern. They have been used in very diverse applications, such as forensic science and toxic algal bloom initiation. They are a form of directed acyclic graph, comprising a set of factors linked through directed arrows to a target node. The network is quantified through a series of conditional probabilities for each of the key variables in the network.
The benefit of BNs in cheetah conservation is that they equip conservationists with a powerful communication tool in their negotiations with land and livestock owners, governmental departments, and other cheetah conservation organisations. Effective communication and directed research are the keys to the long-term survival of cheetahs in southern Africa.

Paris Hilton Jewelry Auctioned on eBay
An online auction of Paris Hilton's jewelry may be halted after internet auction site eBay was threatened with legal action. The 33-piece private collection, including a tiara, a bra-chocker set and crystal-encrusted "SEX" pendant, is being sold on the site by a seller only known as 'chironclub'.
David Hans Schmidt has come forward claiming to be the rightful owner and his attorney, James Bell, has sent the site a cease and desist letter demanding they stop the sale.
Schmidt, nicknamed the 'Sultan of Sleaze' because of the links to the pornography industry, says he bought the jewelry as part of a larger collection of the star's belongings for $2,775.
The collection was originally auctioned off after Paris' Los Angeles storage unit - which contained jewelry, clothing, furniture, journals and videotapes - was seized after the 'Stars Are Blind' singer allegedly failed to pay her monthly fee.
Schmidt is said to be in negotiations with several major US companies, including a leading health and fitness organization, to trade the items for promotional services to be rendered by Paris. The eBay auction was due to run until Sunday (August 7, 2006), with the starting price for all lots $20.
The auction description reads: "Now up for sale is a huge collection of costume jewellery that previously belonged to...oh, yes! to a super-extra-hyper famous public personality and young lady - PARIS HILTON."

Tour Itinerary:
Day 1: Rwanda.
Depart from your hotel in Kampala and head south-west to Rwanda. You will have short stop at the Equator an informative talk as well as a photographic opportunity. We will continue to Mbarara for lunch. Your drive will take you through Uganda rolling green hills through the highlands, also known as the 'Switzerland of Uganda'. Your road will then head even higher to where you can see the triangular peaks of the Virunga volcanoes of Rwanda and the Cong.
Overnight at Gorilla Nest Lodge/Kinigi Guest House/Muhavura lodge (FB - Full Board).
Day 2: Gorilla Tracking.
Early morning, you will enter the Gorilla sanctuary of Parc National des Volcans, the rainy tropical forest covering the hills surrounding Virunga volcanoes. The trekking is a demanding but rewarding experience. Ensure you bring with you enough water and the packed lunch. The time spent in the forest depends on the movements of the Gorillas in their natural environments. After the activity, you will return back. Overnight at the Lodge
Day 3: Depart for Bwindi.
After breakfast, leave for Kisoro or Kabale depending on your tracking group. Stroll through the beautiful country side of Rwanda. Have lunch en route then arrive in the late afternoon. Dinner and over night at Gorilla Resort camp/Buhoma Homestead/L. Kitandara Camp/Buhoma Community Bandas/Nkuringo safari Lodge/Travel's Hotel/Virunga Lodge.
Day 4: Gorilla Trekking.
Go gorilla tracking, walking up steep densely forested hills before finally coming across the gorillas camouflaged in the vegetation. An inspiring moment! (This trek can take from half an hour to 5 hours – a reasonable degree of fitness is required as well as a sturdy pair of walking shoes) Sit in the forest among the gorillas, listening to them grumble to each other, and marvel at the sheer size of the dominant male; the silver back. It is an extraordinary feeling sitting in the dense rainforest knowing you are with a few of the last remaining mountain gorillas.
It's amazing to think there are only about 650 of these beautiful creatures left! If you have the energy this afternoon, take a guided walk on the Munyaga River trail, which is an ideal short walk. This trail leads to three delightful crystal clear waterfalls, and there is a profusion of tree ferns, epithetic ferns, orchids and Bwindi's colourful array of butterflies. Here you may also see birds and primates from the forest edge. Overnight at your lodge
Day 5: Back to Kampala.
After breakfast, we will depart to Kampala arriving in the late evening.

Justin Timberlake
It's one of the most-anticipated animated flicks of the year, and "Trolls" finally has a full-length preview trailer for all to enjoy.
The DreamWorks project features a stellar cast including Justin Timberlake, Anna Kendrick, James Corden, Russell Brand, Gwen Stefani and Ron Funches, all under the direction of Mike Mitchell.
Justin Timberlake came under fire from critics on Twitter for praising Jesse William's moving speech at the BET Awards on Sunday night (June 26).
The Grey's Anatomy actor and activist gave a powerful, impassioned speech about the Black Lives Matter movement and racial equality as he picked up the Humanitarian Award at the Black Entertainment Television (BET) Awards in Los Angeles.
His new single "Can't Stop the Feeling" is already an instant hit, and now Justin Timberlake has an incredible music video to go along with it.
Last night at Midnight, the "Cry Me a River" crooner posted the clip to his social media realm, following the announcement that the song had debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
For the most part, the Cannes Film Festival is all about the movies, but last night (May 11) Justin Timberlake and Anna Kendrick brought some soothing music to the mix.
The "SexyBack" singer played his Gibson J-200 acoustic guitar and sang "True Colors" along with the "Pitch Perfect" stunner as the crowd looked on in amazement.
Earlier this week he teased some new music and now Justin Timberlake has made good on his promise with the release of "Can't Stop The Feeling."
On his first new sing since 2013, the "Like I Love You" crooner sings, "Oh/Yeah/I can't stop the/I can't stop the/I can't stop the/Nothing I can see when you dance/dance."
Taking some time away from their busy careers, Justin Timberlake and Niall Horan showed up at Georgia's Augusta National Golf Course for the Drive, Chip and Putt Championship on Saturday (April 2).
The "Cry Me a River" crooner and the "Story of My Life" singer joined pro golfer Justin Rose to sneak up on a group of young golfers, who were very surprised indeed.
They're two of the most prolific musical masterminds of this generation and it looks like Justin Timberlake and Pharrell Williams may be putting their heads together for some new material.
Earlier this week, the "Like I Love You" crooner posted a snapshot via Instagram of himself and the "Happy" hitmaker in a recording studio.
Theirs is a private relationship most of the time, and yet Justin Timberlake couldn't help but proclaim his birthday love for Jessica Biel via his Instagram page.
The "SexyBack" hunk posted a photo of himself giving his lady love a smooch on the cheek on the occasion of her 34th birthday.
With so many famous faces meandering around the Wallis Annenberg Center in Beverly Hills last night (February 28), it's quite possible that Vanity Fair threw the biggest post-Oscar Party of all time.
Big winners like Leonardo DiCaprio and Brie Larson showed up at the fancy fete to celebrate their new status as Academy Award winners and were greeted by the likes of Emma Roberts, Jared Leto, Jessica Biel, Jennifer Lawrence, Frieda Pinto, Emily Blunt, Lily Collins, Jennifer Garner, Charlize Theron and Ben Affleck.
Once the last golden statue was handed out last night (February 28) the crowd at the 2016 Academy Awards flocked to Vanity Fair's annual Oscar party for plenty of star-studded fun.
And during the course of the shindig, celebrities like Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel took a moment to pose for a portrait by famed photog Mark Seliger.

text: We mentioned Nice Things Handmade in a post before about their fabulous beer cozies. We failed to mention that while we were there, we noticed these amazing paintings of cheese! They're painted by local artist, Mike Geno and he has a show tomorrow for First Friday. Mike Geno is an adjunct faculty member at Moore College of Art, is famous for paintings of raw pork chops and bacon. But his more recent cheese paintings will make your mouth water, with their beautiful color, shadows and textures. Bring your cheese connoisseur friends and try to guess what kinds of cheese they are. The opening is tomorrow from 5pm-8pm at Wedge and Fig at 160 N. Third Street. Apparently his paintings sold like hotcakes over the holidays, so you should definitely go check it out early if you're interested in buying a print. They're usually around $40.

On the cusp of a three-year journey to educate the public about the impending gas and oil boom in eastern Ohio that took most by surprise, Jo Sexton, president of the Cambridge Area Chamber of Commerce, said, the first Guernsey Energy Coalition meeting held in June 2011 was the catalyst for a venue that provided an array of gas and oil industry-related speakers who shared their knowledge and insight of the transformation that was about to occur in southeastern Ohio.
"We are now at the point where the meetings will held quarterly. The next meeting of the Energy Coalition will be Sept. 4," she said.
Sexton also commented on the "Friends and Family Fest -- Shale-abration" last month.
"We are pleased with the outcome, but next year we will not have any rain!"
The first speaker at the podium at the Thursday morning meeting was Bill Bussey, superintendent of Mid-East Career and Technology Centers, who said workforce development through partnerships with business, industry and associated schools is crucial for students.
"Students need hands-on experience outside the classroom ... To be able to learn at an actual workplace, in addition to their academic studies. The pre-apprenticeship program gives students an opportunity to complete various welding certifications, which can potentially lead them to becoming a second-year journeyman at the end of their senior year in high school," he said.
Shannon Kenily, coordinator of business partnerships and placement at MECTC, said five students selected for the MECTC Welding Technology Program, experienced hands-on training in the lab at the school's Zanesville Campus, and also at the lab built especially for the program at Pioneer Pipe, Inc., in Marietta. Partnerships between business and schools are beneficial to students and the industry."
"Two of the five graduating students are here today, Kameron Rayner and Zachery Miller, both just graduated from Caldwell High School," said Kenily. "And both are on a path to success."
Matthew Hilverding, chief operating officer and chief financial officer for the Pioneer Group, said partnerships with three educational facilities was initiated because of a need for welders to work in the gas and oil industry.
"Our pool of qualified welders was pretty much depleted in a very short time," he said. "We talked to several schools about this program. Mid-East Career and Tech Center signed on last year. Our plan was that there would be no more than six students for each instructor. In addition to their academic studies, students spent three hours every day in a specially built lab where they studied and practiced welding procedures they would have to know when applying for a job.
"The results were amazing. At the end of the year the students became second-year apprentices. They learned and met all the requirements for seven welding tests, in addition to earning their high school diploma, completing 1,000 hours of training and passing a work ethic appraisal."
Hilversing said his company "is a small part of the program, the schools pick the students and set up the program. We are happy to say that more than 30 students have successfully completed the program and are on their way to a great career.
"It is a win, win, win situation for the students, schools and the companies to produce highly qualified potential employees."
Sexton introduced Rhonda Reda, executive director of the Ohio Oil and Gas Energy Education Program, who was also the first person connected to the gas and oil industry who spoke at the fledgling Coalition meeting in 2011.
OOGEEP is a non-profit statewide education and public outreach program funded the by gas and oil industry to educate the public about the physiology, geology, technology, education and opportunities in the industry.
Reda took the opportunity to compare statistics from the OOGEEP 2011 Economic Impact Study to documented statistics for the first quarter of 2014.
"Which many people said were totally unrealistic," she said.
In 2011, Ohio had 64,000 conventional wells in formations other than the Utica or Marcellus that produced 4.9 million barrels of crude oil and 73 billion cubic feet of natural gas.
In the fourth quarter of 2013 (October through Dec. 31), 352 unconventional shale wells produced
1.4 million barrels of crude oil and 42.12 billion cubic fee of natural gas.
The study also projected investment in Ohio to ramp up to $14 billion by 2015. Actual investment since 2011, as of March 31, 2014 is $19 billion.
"There are many wells drilled, stimulated with pipelines available, that are now waiting for processing facilities. We have to remember we are still in the exploration and development stage with upstream and midstream operations.
"In 2012, jobs in the gas and oil industry were estimated to be 22,297. Estimates for 2014 -- 178,000. Actual figures from the Ohio Department of Jobs and Family Services for December of 2013: 169,000 jobs in the gas and oil industry.

REDLANDS -- It was udder madness Friday at the Chick-Fil-A here, as the fast-food chain celebrated Cow Appreciation Day.
Held the second Friday in July, the promotion invites Chick-Fil-A patrons and fans to visit their local location and earn free food if they dress up like the farm animal.
A free entree item is given to patrons partially dressed like a cow. Those dressed from head to "hoof" earned themselves an entire meal -- complete with french fries and a drink.
"We just like to show appreciation to the cow. And it is a great way to get people out here," said Naomi Cosner, marketing director for the Redlands Chick-Fil-A. "It's so cute... to see the way (everyone) is dressed up. It's all very exciting."
For 18-year-old Lesa Ong, dressing up like a cow for the promotion was considered a "YOLO" (you only live once) moment in her mind.
"It was summer and we didn't have anything else to do," said the Loma Linda resident.
Using costumes created for Senior Night at Loma Linda Academy, the school she just graduated from, Ong also persuaded two other friends to join the fun, she said.
Photo opportunities with the store's mascot, "Cow," and interactions with store employees were additional highlights for the promotion.
Those who dressed up or wanted to capture images from the event were encouraged to upload their photos onto the promotion's website -- cowappreciationday.com.
Thousands of free meals were expected to be given away at 1,700-plus Chick-Fil-A locations nationwide, Cosner said.

Dust Devils Run Away in Finale
2,504 enjoy win and postgame fireworks show
By Matt Ward / Tri-City Dust Devils | September 2, 2013 10:23 PM ET
The Tri-City Dust Devils ended the 2013 season in style, beating up on the Vancouver Canadians pitchers in an 11-1 win Monday night at Gesa Stadium in front of 2,504 faithful fans.
The Dust Devils (15-23 Second Half, 34-42 Overall) broke the team record for average attendance per game this season for the 7th consecutive season. They averaged 2,270 fans per home game compared to 2,266 last season.
Tri-City was led offensively by Julian Yan. Yan went 2-for-5 in the game with 3 RBIs and a triple. Kyle Von Tungeln had four stolen bases for the Dust Devils, and Ashley Graeter drove in a pair of runs in a 2-for-5 performance.
Dust Devils shortstop Pat Valaika, the Papa John's Hit Man of the game, went 1-for-3. Since he recorded a hit everyone can head to papajohns.com and type in promo code "dustdevils" where you can buy any pizza and receive a second pizza of equal or lesser value for free. This promo code is valid tomorrow only, Tuesday, September 3rd, at all Tri-City locations.
Tri-City starting pitcher Konner Wade (3-7) was great once again. He allowed just one run on seven hits. He struck out four and did not allow a walk in his 5 2/3 innings. Monday's win was Wade's third since August 17, when he earned his first professional win. He has only allowed two earned runs in that span.
Canadians (17-21, 39-37) right-hander Justin James (1-7) gave up three runs, two earned, on three hits over 3 2/3 innings. He struck out six and walked three in a losing effort.
Everyone with the Dust Devils would like to thank all of the fans that came out to support them throughout the 2013 season. Season ticket and mini plan packages for the 2014 season are on sale now. If you are interested in season tickets, mini plan packages, or group ticket packages call the Dust Devils front office at (509) 544-8789.

Fox Snub Boosts Ron Paul

There's nothing like a snub from FNC to motivate Paul's base, and he's making considerable hay challenging Fox's conservative credentials. Paul's point: Fox is more pro-Bush than conservative, a big difference.

(1/2/2014) The Jakarta Globe reports that $US410 million electrical power project for a 220-kilometer long overhead-crossing transmission line spanning the straits between Java and Bali is scheduled for completion in 2019.
The segment crossing the ocean straits between Java and Bali will, according to developers, be the tallest power transmission lines in the world. Financed in part via a loan from the Asian Development Bank (ADB), Robert Pakpahan from the Indonesian Finance Ministry described "towers as high as the Eiffel."
The high flung lines will have the capacity to transmit 1,500 megawatts of electricity.
The loan from ADB is for a 20-year period with a holiday from repayments for the first 6 years of the loan period.
Only 69% of Bali total power needs are currently met by two undersea cables and island-based generation facilities.
Plans are to double the submarine cables bringing power to Bali in 2014.
With the introduction of the overhead crossing towers in 2019, Bali is expected to have enough to sustain tourism and meet the growing demand for electricity in the immediate future.

VELUX EHF Champions League 2011/2012 Registration
Last Friday was the deadline for clubs across Europe to register to participate in the VELUX EHF Champions League 2011/2012.
Only two sides, H.C. Conversano of Italy and HC Mojkovac of Montenegro, did not register.
The current list can be seen HERE (.pdf)
A number of clubs who have registered have remaining issues relating to their playing venue not being of EHF required standard. The EHF reserves the right to not accept their registration on this basis.
The EHF are currently investigating these clubs and are involved in a dialogue which may include solutions such as alternative playing venues or renovation plans.
The EHF Executive Committee meeting in Malta this week will be used for further evaluation of these clubs surrounding these organisational aspects as well as playing issues.
VELUX EHF Champions League 2011/2012 Wild Card
Five clubs have requested a Wild Card place in the VELUX EHF Champions League 2011/2012 in the following seeding order:
Spain - Cuatro Rayas BM Valladolid
The VELUX EHF Champions League 2011/2012 Wild Card tournament has four places available and the EHF Executive Committee meeting in Malta this week will be used for further evaluation of these clubs in relation to them gaining a Wild Card place.
The decisions regarding the participation of clubs in the men's and women's competitions, as well as the awarding of places in the Wild Card Tournament will be made by the EHF Executive Committee on Saturday 18 June 2011.
The issue of the venue for the Wild Card Tournament in the men's competition will be handled in a separate procedure later on after the local situation of possible organisers have been evaluated.
VELUX EHF Champions League / EHF Women's Champions League Draws
The draw for the VELUX EHF Champions League and the EHF Women's Champions League Qualification Groups will take place at the EHF Office in Vienna on Monday, 27 June 2011 at 16.00 hrs.

Since Shapeways introduced glass to the range of materials available the team doing the process have come across the barriers of possibility, seen some amazing results like the Vase below which was hand painted with leaded glass enamels of the sort that traditional stained glass artist use. This is a secondary process, sort of like glazing pottery.
GlenG is part of the team responsible and is generous enough to post really helpful information in the forums on a regular basis about the glass process.
We have had very few problems with small solid parts . Failures are mostly due to bad design practices like overly thin sections, radical sectional changes, and lack of fillets. These problems tend to become magnified as model size increases. When designing hollow parts accommodations must be made to allow the support powder to completely fill all empty spaces. The support powder acts as a mold during firing. The glass becomes like soft toffee during firing and without support it will move in unexpected (usually disastrous) ways.
These are things we know for fact.
A big thanks to Glen for his time and effort in sharing his knowledge and experience from the coalface.

#100: Shaun elliott
Points: 27 Appearances: 363 Goals: 11
Shaun Elliott was one of a number of young players thrust into the limelight during the relegation fight of 1976/77. Although Sunderland were ultimately relegated from the top division at the end of that season, Elliott obviously benefited from the experience, as he remained a regular choice in the side
for the next nine seasons. The best moment of the centre-back's time at the
club came in 1980, when he played a full part in the club's promotion
campaign and he also led Sunderland to the 1985 League Cup final - though he missed the game through suspension.
#99: Gary owers
Pts: 27 Apps: 320 Goals: 27
A virtually permanent fixture in the Sunderland side from the moment he made
his debut under Denis Smith, at the start of the 1987/88 season until his
departure in 1994. Midfielder Gary Owers earned two promotions and made two Wembley appearances with the club. He helped win the Division 3 title in
his first season and two years later won promotion to the top flight. Owers
was part of the 1992 FA Cup final line-up, where he was pressed into action
at right-back in place of the injured John Kay.
#98: vic halom
Pts: 27 Apps: 134 Goals: 40
Powerful centre forward Vic Halom won an FA Cup winners medal in 1973 within
three months of coming to Roker Park. It was his searing angled drive that
put Sunderland ahead in the much vaunted fifth round replay at home to Manchester City and he also opened the scoring against Arsenal in the
semi-final. He also collected a Division 2 Championship medal in 1976. Vic
Halom, Vic Halom, Vic Halom, La la la la la la!
#97: nick pickering
Pts: 28 Apps: 209 Goals: 18
South Shields-born Nick Pickering became Sunderland's last England
international prior to the call-ups of Mickey Gray and Kevin Phillips, when
he played against Australia in 1983. Able to play at left-back or in
midfield, Pickering was a regular in the side from his debut as an
18-year-old in August 1981 until he left for Coventry in 1986. He was also in the Sunderland team
that lost the 1985 League Cup final to Norwich.
#96: Tommy Reynolds
Pts: 28 Apps: 171 Goals: 18
Left winger Tommy Reynolds played for the club in the seven seasons
immediately after World War 2. In this time, Sunderland were a generally
solid if unspectacular top flight outfit. The exception was when they
finished 3rd in 1949/50 when Reynolds had one of his most productive campaigns. A true North East lad, he bred greyhounds and raced them at the
local Sunderland track.
#95: Donald Gow
1891-1892 & 1893-1897
Pts: 28 Apps: 111 Goals: 1
Playing in an era when it was not just unusual, but regarded as a social
faux pas not to have a bristling moustache, Donald Gow had the hairiest
upper lip of all. However, he was not all 'tache and no trousers. Gow won a
League Championship medal in 1892 and, although he did not qualify for a
medal, he also played seven times in the title winning side three years later.
Capable of playing in either full-back slot, he also helped the club to a
2nd place finish in 1894.
#94: Gary Rowell
Pts: 29 Apps: 293 Goals: 102
Before working alongside that lunatic Crabbers for Metro Radio, Gary Rowell
carved out a half decent career for himself at Roker Park. For younger
readers, he was the Kevin Phillips of his day. Rowell's breakthrough season
was, like Shaun Elliott's, the relegation campaign of 1976/77. However, he
helped the club bounce back with two top six finishes and eventually
promotion in 1979/80, although injury restricted his contribution. Many of
his 102 goals for the club kept Sunderland in the top flight for the
following four seasons - and kept supporters living in a Gary Rowell world.
#93: Jimmy McNab
Pts: 30 Apps: 323 Goals: 18
A tough tackling left-half (he would be a holding midfielder nowadays) Jimmy McNab made his debut for the club in the 1958/59 season - Sunderland's first ever outside the top division. After this initial season of settling in - during which he broke a leg - McNab became a regular in the side for the next seven seasons. This included winning promotion back to the old Division 1 in 1964 and then playing his part to help the club remain there throughout the mid-sixties.
#92: Thomas Sorensen
Pts: 30 Apps: 197 Goals: 0
Tommy Sorensen was an essential member of the team that took the club to its
highest league finishes since the 1950s, when coming seventh in the
Premiership in 2000 and 2001. He joined Sunderland at the beginning of the
1998/99 season and played in all but one of the league games as Sunderland
won the title and went up with 105 points. The Great Dane also became one of
the few Sunderland players to play in a World Cup when he did so in 2002.
Sorensen's final season on Wearside (2002/03) was his worst both in terms of
appearances and achievement. Tommy will always be fondly remembered for denying Mr Shearer from the spot on so many occasions.
#91: Jack Hedley
Pts: 30 Apps: 295 Goals: 0
Jack Hedley's time at Sunderland spanned the whole of the 1950s bar six
months at either end. He therefore played a key part in three top ten
finishes in the old Division 1. However, he was also a regular in the
first ever relegation of 1958. In making 295 appearances and failing to
score once, Hedley set the standard for later right-backs such as John Kay,
Dariusz Kubicki and, until he ruined it all with a goal at Spurs, Chris

To take advantage of this exclusive service just tell us your sizes in the remarks box at the end of the ordering process and we will make your dress exclusively for you.
What are the measurements required ?
Or If you prefer you can choose a standard size and make any changes to the standard size that you require. Please state in the remarks box when ordering. You can change any of the measurement above to fit you ie. Size 12, but 30 waist and 59 long. The length is measured from the top of the shoulder to the floor. Please allow for your shoe height.
Note For the most accurate results when measuring for a made-to-measure outfit, please ensure that you are wearing the underwear and shoes that you intend to wear with the outfit (or your normal bra and shoes of similar height to those you will wear).
We have no limit on sizes we can make. The price as shown is for up to size 20. Over size 20 has a £10 surcharge and over size 26 has a £20 surcharge.
Previously Wedding dresses were normally made to measure often costing at least £1000 or more and alterations were needed if bought of the rail such as £50 for a simple alteration such as sewing up the hem. Now buying standard sizes from high street shops has become more common practice, but only if your size is standard and most shops have different standards. Your wedding day is a very special day and there is no substitute for a dress made to measure your unique body shape. Formal Gowns direct give you the opportunity to have your own made to measure exquisite dress at a fraction of the cost of a standard dress at your local wedding shop.
We are a fair trade company that make very small profit margins and give customer a good price. We like our dresses to fit our customers well and want to get it right first time because returned items are costly increasing the price for all our customers. Other websites and retail shops charge 3 to 4 times our prices in order to cover the cost of returns whilst maintaining high profit margins. We think it is unfair for other customers to pay an expensive price to cover the cost of items returned from customers who order incorrectly. That is why we ask you to order wisely and why we make your dress to your measurements

It is time to stop a giant game being run by pygmies.
Burden, a capable administrator, pin-up of the county set but no heavyweight leader, has written to FA board members saying he understands that the chairman's role involves dealing with Fifa, a shadowy international organisation now depicted as the Spectre of Soccer. Burden says he does not wish "to deal with people whom I cannot trust". Ouch.
For all the calls for change, emanating mainly from a wronged and piqued England, the 24 executive committee men (suspensions restricted the voters to 22) are as likely to vote for surrendering their VVIP passes as turkeys are to campaign for making Christmas a monthly celebration. The only way to improve Fifa is from within, not through hissy-fits or isolationism. For all the understandable dismay over the 2018 and 2022 decisions, England cannot hide away like Burden.
England need to become closer to Fifa, to get more individuals into the committee rooms, into the positions of power, so seeking slowly to reclaim the game for the right-minded. Enter Dein. A clubbable individual with the right personality, energy and political antenna, Dein was born to work a Fifa hotel breakfast room, offering a handshake here, a "how's the family?" there.
However aggravating and unfair, these are Fifa's rules of engagement. If Dein had been involved earlier in England 2018's bid team, the long-standing anti-English spirit within Fifa might have been addressed, if not necessarily overcome.
A plan was afoot over this weekend to persuade the FA to appoint two leaders, effectively splitting the chairman's role between home and abroad. Burden would do the low-key local work as FA chairman, while an international president would absorb the vital Fifa and Uefa duties. Dein could do both.
Everyone suddenly seems to be looking at the FA in a new light because of events in Zurich, suddenly noting the dearth of direction and dynamism at the top, yet this has been going on for years. The FA needs reforming before Operation Fifa can commence.
More former players need to be introduced, bringing technical expertise and a competitive edge. Many have graced Wembley's pitch. Why shouldn't individuals such as David Beckham, John Barnes, Andy Cole, Gary Mabbutt or Paul Elliott now march along the corridors of power overlooking the famous field?
So let the English put their own house in order first. Get Dein and some intelligent former players in. And then try, over the next decade, to work on Fifa House.

No. 3 Kentucky Defeats No. 4 Alaska-Fairbanks
Jan. 13, 2013
LEXINGTON, Ky. - The University of Kentucky rifle team defeated No. 4 Alaska-Fairbanks 4705 - 4687 Sunday at the Pat Spurgin Rifle Range in Murray, Ky., breaking Murray State range records in total aggregate score and air rifle aggregate.
"Overall, not a bad day," UK head coach Harry Mullins said. "The match was very close. We left some points on the board in smallbore, our prone was a little down from where it has been but I was real proud of how the team responded in standing and then rounded out their scores in kneeling."
Senior Henri Junghänel led the Wildcats in smallbore, posting 590 of Kentucky's 2331 smallbore points. Fellow senior Heather Greathouse delivered a solid performance in smallbore, beginning the morning with a 586.
Ahead by just one point entering air rifle, Kentucky delivered one of its best team air rifle performances on the year. All five of Kentucky's counters shot a 591 or better, with the top-four performances making up the Wildcats' 2374 total air rifle score. As an individual, junior Aaron Holsopple broke into the 590s with a 590 in air rifle.
"We had all six shooters shoot a 590 or above in air rifle, it's always a good day when you have performance across the board like that," Mullins said. "Connor Davis had a solid day with his 597 in air rifle and Henri had a good day with a 590 in smallbore and 594 in air rifle for an 1184. That's a good day's work. I was proud of how Emily Holsopple bounced back and shot a 592 in air rifle."
Breaking the 4700 barrier for just the second time on the year, the Wildcats had to fend off a feisty effort from Alaska-Fairbanks. Opening the morning with a 2330 in smallbore, followed by a 2357 in air rifle, the Nanooks' total aggregate score of 4687 goes down as a season best for the team.
"Breaking 4700 is a good start to the spring semester," Mullins said. "Today was one of those matches that the opposing team gave it its all and I was very proud of the way our team responded and the effort they delivered. I think if we keep working on the pace we are currently then we may be able to add some points to the team score we shot today."
The Wildcats' win pushes them to 7-1 on the year as they prepare to travel to Oxford, Miss., next week to face Memphis and Ole Miss.

Wow look at that.... hmmmm i smell lawsuit
thats identical... Definite lawsuit coming and it will be an easy win
Google "nokia iPhone" tell me which one is closer.
This is insane. Why do they have to copy? The LEAST they can do is take what is there, improve on it, then change the design a little to at least TRY and fool us.
What lawsuit? there is no international copyrights between US and China. this is the same company that is selling iPods for half the price.
Lawsuit?? Who you going to sue?? Where are you going to take your case? You're fighting against a company in Communist China that probably has some level of governmental support.
Good luck with that.
What did Apple think when it set up manufacturing in Shenzen? That the locals were going to abide by US copyright restrictions?
Sure, Apple will ***** and moan and might even have success in preventing their import here. But so what? The rest of the world will still buy them even if they are cheap crappy knockoffs.
You sleep with the dogs......

They could sell them in China no problem but outside of there they would have issues.
I don't drink kool-Aid, I don't join cults.
This is why I break out in cold sweat going to Apple retail store.
It could be exactly like the iPhone for $200 less, but who gives a rats ***. China rips off the design of every car maker in america, but guess what, we dont buy their chit.

Taiwanese people DO NOT bootleg things like the Chinese do, they even have a well established platform for legal music distribution.
For crying out loud they even have different governments.

The WTO? Are you freaking serious? Who abides by their ruling?? How do they enforce their verdicts??
Hell, all you have to do is look at the US vs. Canada softwood lawsuit to know that the WTO is just another useless extragovermental body full of political timeservers that do absolutely nothing.
