SUPERMARINE have made Chris Taylor an improved wage offer as they aim to fend off interest from Oxford and Hungerford for the midfielder's signature.
The former Maidenhead man has held talks with both of Marine's local rivals - who boast substantially bigger budgets than the Wiltshire side - and now must decide whether to make a switch or stay at the Webb's Wood Stadium.
Marine boss Dave Webb admits Taylor will earn more money if he decides to leave, but is hopeful that the 27-year-old will stay on.
"We've made Chris an offer, but it's not an offer that's as much as the other clubs have made him," said Webb.
"There's not a lot we can do if a club comes in and is willing to pay a lot more money than we can to one of our players. Unfortunately we can't compete with the two clubs in terms of budget.
"It's about trying to find a resolution to see if we can keep him, but it's difficult bearing in mind where the club is. We have to be realistic.
"We'd like a much bigger budget and we'd like to give not just two, three or four players a bigger wage, but everyone.
"Ultimately we're trying to build a team that potential could get out of this league whether it be this season, next season or after that and people like Chris will be valuable to us."
Webb's men are scheduled to travel to Shortwood tonight in Division One South & West, but as the cold weather continues, the manager fears the match will not go ahead.
Marine have only played six games since the beginning of December and Webb said: "We'd love to get that on and start playing again, but I can't see it being on.
"Shortwood are based at Nailsworth which is quite a high point so they normally get hit by the weather."
Asked if the Southern League should consider extending the season to allow clubs to squeeze their games in, Webb was positive it wouldn't be necessary.
"It depends how long this weather lasts, hopefully not," he said.
"I can't see them doing it, I don't think they even did it in the Hellenic in the past when they really should have done.
"We'll have to wait and see, but hopefully we'll catch up and get the games in.
"If we start playing well it might suit us to be playing Saturday-midweek, but we just don't want to be playing four games a week.
"We haven't fallen any further behind (because Saturday saw a complete whiteout in the Southern League) but it's a massive concern now. I think we'll have midweek games right through March and April."
Elsewhere, Cirencester are due to take on an Army side in a charity friendly at the Corinium tonight, while lower down the ladder Fairford's originally-scheduled Floodlit Cup quarter-final with Marlow has been postponed.

Love Test Calculator Deluxe

All Android applications categories
by: AMA LTD. • 1.4K
Published: 2013-02-14, by Ana Gracia.
Love Test Calculator Deluxe is a new application that calculates the compatibility between you and your partner. it's based on the harmony in the relationship, the fusion of energies and the potential areas of friction.
Firstly, you need to choose a character and start answering questions and finally read the results. Besides the test, there are also some other sections like the Original Love Test, Is She Going to love you?, the Challenge and Tender Words to dedicate to your significant other and the complete results of the test if you want to purchase extra features.
This app is extremely romantic and cheesy but it can be somewhat useful around this time of the year and the test can be pretty fun to take, maybe together. Of course the advice and rules are common and obvious but if you're a romantic person, you will probably agree with everything.
AMALtd has developed several apps for Android. Download it for Valentine's Day or even Halloween and surprise your partner with sweet notes and poems.

• cacodemon •
Pronunciation: kæ-kê-dee-mên • Hear it!
Part of Speech: Noun
Meaning: 1. An evil spirit. 2. The Devil.
Notes: Some British speakers prefer to spell this word cacodaemon. It has one lexical relative, an adjective with two variants: cacodemonic and cacodemonical. If you need an adverb you must add the -ly to the longer form: cacodemonically. It is related to cacophony, often mispronounced [kaw-kæ-fê-ni]. The correct pronunciation is, of course, [kæ-kaw-fê-ni].
In Play: Cacodemons are the opposite of angels: "Other people have guardian angels looking over their lives; I must have a cacodemon looking over mine." However, today's Good Word is just as susceptible to figurativity: "I feel like cacodemons are fighting it out in my stomach over who is going to digest my dinner." (Resist the temptation to use this word in reference to the little brats who merely disturb you.)
Word History: Today's Good Word originated as Greek kakodaimon, a compound noun made up of kakos "bad, ugly" + daimon "spirit, deity, lesser god". Kakos comes from Proto-Indo-European kaka- "defecate". It survives to this day in English caca "poop". Poppycock has nothing to do with flowers or roosters, but is the leavings of a Dutch word poppekak "doll poop", again with a remnant of kaka.
Greek daimon is believed to go back to dai-mon "divider, distributor (of destinies)". If this is true, it also came down to Old English as tima "time, period", Modern English time, which is divided and proportioned regularly. (Let us all wish Luciano Eduardo de Oliveira no cacodemons, lest they interfere with his editing the Good Word series and recommending words like today's.)

A member of the drum line in Mogmatt's band figured out how to make his instrument sound like a bird chirping. How did he do this?
HintMarching bands typically play in full football stadiums.
AnswerHe hit his drum and had it echo against a stairway. This causes a difference in the times the echos are heard. This would also work in front of an empty stadium.

PHILADELPHIA – Sam Hayward scored the biggest goal of his blossoming soccer career, netting the game-winner in Penn's 2-1 win over Princeton on Saturday to keep Penn in contention for an Ivy League crown. For his efforts, Hayward was named Ivy League and Philadelphia Soccer Six Rookie of the Week.
Hayward worked a give-and-go with Forrest Clancy in the 61', settling a ball with his chest and dishing to Clancy just across the midfield strike. Clancy would take a few steps and return the pass back to Hayward who snuck down the left side towards goal and scored on a perfectly-placed shot to the right post. His goal gave Penn its first lead of the match, and would send the Quakers to their seventh win at home this season.
Hayward now leads all Ivy rookies in scoring with five goals this season. His tally gave Penn sole possession of second place in the Ancient Eight and set up a showdown with Harvard this coming Saturday in Cambridge. The Crimson is in first place, two points ahead of the Quakers, with one match remaining.

ATHENS, Ohio (AP) -- Ohio University says two of its professors have been named charter fellows of the National Academy of Inventors.
The school in southeast Ohio announced that John Kopchick and Gerardine Botte were among 98 innovators to receive the honor this year.
The Athens Messenger (http://bit.ly/TlVpFP ) reports that Kopchick is a professor of microbiology. He has developed intellectual property in the field of biotechnology that has made a significant impact on human health.
Botte is a professor of chemical and biomolecular engineering who has developed technologies that harness commercial and residential waste products such as ammonia, and turn them into sustainable energy sources.
Botte and Kopchick will be inducted as fellows during the conference of the National Academy of Inventors on Feb. 22 in Tampa, Fla.

As our babies grow, jump and leap into the toddler stage many of us start considering the question of discipline. What form of discipline is suitable for our children? If we follow a gentle parenting style then what does this mean in terms of how we teach our children what is right and wrong? What does it mean to gently convey to a child that what they have done does not please us and we do not want it to happen again?
It would be great if you could share your parenting experiences here, particularly if you believe in 'gentle discipline'.
The author Peggy O'Mara writes
'Effective discipline is based on loving guidance. It is based on the belief that children are born innately good and that our role as parents is to nurture their spirits as they learn about limits and boundaries, rather than to curb their tendencies toward wrongdoing. Effective discipline presumes that children have reasons for their behaviour and that cooperation can be engaged to solve shared problems.'
This resonates true with my own thoughts. I want to respect my children and follow their lead, parenting them gently and giving them space, time, energy and love to explore the world. However I do not think that this means I do not need to guide them and, indeed, parent them. I have found that asking my son 'why he has thrown the toy towards another child' helps us to solve the problem together and helps me to understand his actions. He still needs to know this is not acceptable behaviour but if I understand the reason for the behaviour then we can work to change it together - in this case finding soft shapes to throw together outside because he 'wanted to find out how different objects move in the air'.
I look forward to reading the stories of your gentle discipline journeys.

THE frontman of Madness takes to the stage in a hilarious and moving one-man tour de force.
Suggs presents My Life Story in Words and Music at Malvern Theatres on Friday, April 25 and the talk focusses on his personal quest to discover what happened to the father he never knew.
Prompted by the death of his beloved cat on his 50th birthday, it is part play, part stand-up comedy and part Music Hall entertainment as he is taken back to his childhood on the tough streets of 1970s Soho and his first appearance on Top Of The Pops at the age of 18.
There will be musical accompaniment and uncalled for unterjection from Suggs' loyal manservant-cum-pianist, Deano.
The show in the Forum Theatre starts at 7.45pm and tickets are £29.68, including a 12 per cent booking fee.

There's little doubt Michael Hussey's international cricket career will be remembered exactly as he wants it to be.
"Someone who loved the game, was a good team man, someone that was very passionate about the game, prepared very well and just gave his all for his country," Hussey said on Sunday when asked how he'd like to be recalled.

'Mr Cricket' retires from international cricket
Mike Hussey has announced the Sydney Test against Sri Lanka will be his last for Australia.
Emotion only got the better of Hussey once at a media conference called in Melbourne to discuss his decision to quit international cricket at the end of this summer.
Vote on Hussey's replacement in the Australian middle order.
That was when he thanked his family for their support and patience with his long absences while on national team duty.
It was his wife Amy and their four children under the age of eight who were behind the 37-year-old West Australian's decision to walk away while still a formidable force in Test and one-day cricket.
Put simply, Mr Cricket missed the family too much.
The prospect of away series in India, then England for the Ashes in a busy 2013 would have thrilled Hussey a few years ago.
Now, the prospect of more than six months on the road without his family was a prospect filling him with dread.
"When I started looking ahead towards the India series and the Ashes series, you really need to be 100 per cent committed towards the challenges they're going to present to the team," Hussey said on Sunday.
"I was more dreading that time away from home rather than looking forward to the challenges, and so for me that confirmed in my own mind it really is the right time to say goodbye.
"That's what I'd been thinking for quite a period of time.
"I've probably battled a bit in the last two away trips - we had one stint where we were away for two and a half months which I found to be quite hard.
"The next stint ... it's going to be six and a half or seven months away. I know I can't commit to those challenges.
"There's just so much more to life than playing cricket."
Hussey admitted he'd known for several months this summer may be his last.
But it was a secret well kept, shocking both coach Mickey Arthur and skipper Michael Clarke when Hussey told them his plans after Australia's crushing Boxing Day Test win.
He spent Saturday telephoning all his teammates. Most appeared genuinely shocked.
Not the least because Hussey departs at the top of his game.
He averages 51.52 over a 78-Test career which unusually, only began when he was 30.
Despite the late start, only 11 other Australians have scored more Test runs than Hussey's 6,183, which includes 19 centuries.
And the runs were still flowing freely - Hussey averaging nearly 80 this summer.
Hussey says he's fortunate to retire on his own terms. The unforgiving nature of the game allows few that luxury.
Cricket Australia chief executive James Sutherland said there was no doubt Hussey had earned the right to go out on top.
"He's a consummate professional. The way he's played the game, represented his country, he's a model for all young players coming up and into the Australian team."

Colorado Democratic Rep. Ed Perlmutter Monday night cited the July 20 mass killing in an Aurora, Colo. movie theater as one justification for passing President Obama's Affordable Care Act in 2010.
The health care overhaul law, deemed "Obamacare," by conservatives will "stop the discrimination against people with prior illnesses or injuries — or, say, some of the folks who were shot in the theater," Perlmutter said during the meeting, conducted via Facebook and over a teleconference.
"They would be uninsurable now that they've had that wound, but under the Affordable Care Act they can't be discriminated against starting in 2014."
Perlmutter was among the first politicians to politicize the movie theater tragedy, allegedly carried out by former graduate student James Holmes. Congressman Perlmutter leveraged the shooting, barely 48 hours after it occurred for political purposes.
Appearing on CBS's "Face the Nation" July 22, Perlmutter called for the reauthorization of a nationwide assault-weapon ban first enacted in 1994.
Holmes has been charged with 24 counts of first-degree murder.
On July 23 Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper told Fox-TV31 in Denver that talk of legislative priorities should wait until family members of the dead have had time to process the tragedy.
"I think the discussions of 'do we need stricter laws' should probably wait until the families have grieved," Hickenlooper said, "and at least until we bury the people who we lost."

Central rallies for men's track and field league title
DUBUQUE—Central College won three events Sunday and capped a furious second-day effort culminating in their third indoor men's track and field championship in four years. The women's squad won two events and finished third.
The Dutch men held a narrow four-point margin over Wartburg heading into the meet's final event, the 4×400-meter relay. The two squads traded the lead over the first three legs before senior captain Phil Heisterkamp (Jefferson, Jefferson-Scranton HS) took the baton in second. Heisterkamp then held off a frantic charge by a Loras squad anchored by the league 400-meter champion to secure the team title for the Dutch.
Central totaled 186 points on the weekend to take the win over Wartburg with 184. Host Dubuque had 107, followed by Loras (86), Simpson (80), Luther (42), Buena Vista (35), and Coe (19).
"This was one of my proudest days at Central," said coach Joe Dunham. "I am so happy for all the guys. They've worked hard for this moment."
Dunham was later named the Men's Coach of the Year.
Dutch men dominate hurdles—After a pair of runner-up finishes Saturday, Eric Larson (sophomore, Waverly, Waverly-Shell Rock HS) broke through in the 55 hurdles finals, winning the event in 7.69 seconds. Freshman teammate Dan Roemerman (Iowa City, City HS) was close behind in second (7.7) and Drake Hickok (freshman, Cedar Rapids, Washington HS) was fourth (7.84).
"It was a breakthrough day for the men's hurdlers," said Dunham. "They all ran big personal bests on a big stage."
Eli Horton (sophomore, Runnells, Southeast Polk HS) and Drew Jackson (sophomore, Johnston) posted a 1-2 finish in the Mile run with times of 4:16.11 and 4:16.86 respectively while Kyle Nuehring (freshman, Waukee) crossed the line in fourth (4:21.01). Horton and Jackson came back in the 3,000 meters with second (8:43.96) and third-place (8:45.22) finishes. Cole Decker (freshman, Des Moines, West Des Moines Dowling HS) was fifth (8:46.89).
Logan Danko (senior, Centerville) captured the 200-meters with a mark of 22.41 while Mason Zimmerman (sophomore, Urbandale) was seventh (23.08). Nick Barnes (junior, Altoona, Southeast Polk HS) took sixth in the 800 meters (1:59.03) and teamed up with Justin Burns (sophomore, Cedar Rapids, Prairie HS), Riley Wattier (freshman, Waukee), and Ben Schornack (senior, Urbandale) to take fourth in the 4×800 relay in a school-record time of 7:57.59. Heisterkamp was joined by Austin Roberts (freshman, Bloomfield, Davis County HS), Tyler Westphal (senior, Le Mars), and Hickok for their runner-up finish in the 4×400 relay (3:24.96).
Off the track, Larson capped his 34-point two-day effort with a second-place finish in the high jump (6-7). Josh Fleming (senior, Caseyville, Ill., Collinsville HS) earned all-conference honors with a third-place finish in the weight throw (53-3.75) with Steve Messerschmidt (junior, Neola, Tri-Center HS) right behind in fourth (52-2.5). Miles Barton (sophomore, Cedar Rapids, Washington HS) was sixth in the triple jump (42-3.5). Conner Freeman (sophomore, Urbandale) took runner-up honors in the heptathlon (4,462 points), with Aaron Fuller (senior, Aberdeen, S.D., Roncalli HS) placing fourth (4,252) and Jaemin Powell (freshman, Wellman, Mid-Prairie HS) finishing seventh (4,073).
"It was a true team effort for the men today," said Dunham. "We found points in a lot of different places and we needed every one of them."
Record-setting day for Coleman—Standout Felicia Coleman (senior, Houston, Texas, J. Frank Dobie HS) continued her stellar indoor campaign Sunday, collecting victories in the 55-meters (7.17) and the 200 meters (24.92). Her 200-meter mark cracked the previous conference record as well as her own school record. Coleman was later named the Outstanding Women's Track Events Athlete of the Meet.
"This is a very special season for Felicia," said Dunham. "It's all a testament to her hard work and determination."
Mel McDermott (senior, Britt, West Hancock HS) crossed the line second in the 3,000 meters (10:52.14), with teammates Alyssa Eaves (sophomore, Johnston) and Gabi Wilson (freshman, Clive, Des Moines Christian HS) placing seventh (11:15.34) and eighth (11:15.41) respectively. Elin Phipps (freshman, Boone) raced to third in the 800 meters (2:19.96) with Sarah Mueller (sophomore, Urbandale) placing sixth (2:24.38). Melanie Nielsen (freshman, Atlantic) was fifth in the 400 meters (1:00.76) while Camie Kibbee (sophomore, Mason City) was seventh (1:01.02). Amanda Dunkin (junior, Pella) was seventh in the Mile (5:31.89) and McKenna Zimmerman (sophomore, Urbandale) took sixth in the 55 hurdles (8.74).
Both Central women's relays earned all-conference honors on Sunday. The foursome of Molly Bramble (freshman, Waukee), Emily Saville (sophomore), Mueller and Phipps placed third in the 4×800 relay (9:44.18) en route to a new school record, while Nielsen, Kibbee, Coleman, and Taylor Beckman (sophomore, Panora, Panorama HS) took second in the 4×400 relay (4:00.18).
Off the track, Jess Fevold (senior, Webster City) finished third in the weight throw (48-8) and April McCarthy (freshman, Stoughton, Wis.) rode a big personal best to a sixth-place finish (44-0.5). Hillary Hotz (sophomore, Fort Dodge, St. Edmond HS) took seventh in the high jump (5-0.5).
"It's always fun to see how young athletes develop at these big meets," said Dunham. "We had a lot of underclassmen step up today for the women. This squad has some big things in front of them."
Central's women racked up 108 points to place third in the team standings. Wartburg won the title with 262 points with Luther taking runner-up honors with 127. Loras was fourth (95), followed by Buena Vista (40), Coe (38.5), Dubuque (38.5), and Simpson (31).
"We only had a couple of wins, but overall the coaching staff was happy with how the women finished," said Dunham. "We were able to get at least a few points in almost every event and that is a mark of well-rounded team."
With the conference meet in the books, the Dutch will now turn their attention to the NCAA Division III championships March 8-9 in Naperville, Ill. Central will take a limited squad to the Point Last Chance Meet in Stevens Point, Wis. Friday for one more attempt at national qualifying marks.
"We're excited to see what we can do next week," said Dunham. "We have a few people that we are confident will get in, but I think we can get more."

FDR and the Pearl Harbor Attack
On December 7, 1941, "a date which will live in infamy," the Japanese attacked the United States at Pearl Harbor. Japanese forces destroyed or damaged 16 warships and killed over 2,400 Americans. The blame for this surprise attack fell on several men, from Admiral Husband Kimmel and Lt. General Walter Short, military leaders in Hawaii, to FDR himself. Decades later, many believe Roosevelt obtained advanced knowledge of Pearl Harbor and kept it secret, so the United States could enter World War II. While Roosevelt and his advisors knew an attack from Japan was imminent, most historical evidence concludes that the men thought the Philippines or Guam the most likely targets. Because of the great distance between Japan and Hawaii, the United States did not expect an attack and Japan counted on the surprise to conduct a successful air raid on Pearl Harbor. Conspiracy theories make history interesting, but most historians believe that FDR did not know specifically about Pearl Harbor. Also, if FDR did have advanced knowledge of an attack, so would numerous intelligence agents and even clerks. A cover-up of this proportion, over such a long time appears inconceivable. Pearl Harbor turned an isolationist America into a country eager for battle overnight, but few patriots, especially Roosevelt, would sacrifice over 2,400 American lives simply to avoid political disfavor by going to war.

HD Radio: HD radio stations transmit a digital signal, rather than an analog AM or FM signal as traditional radio has used for decades. Digital has some benefits over analog. Stations can transmit their signals farther (that is not often true) and the signal will be clearer ("CD-quality sound") to those equipped with an HD receiver. Stations can "multicast" their programs. This means that they can transmit more than one channel at a time and thus tailor content more specifically for each channel.
HD Radio is a proprietary technology developed by iBiquity. The "HD" does not stand for "high definition" as it is merely a brand name.
Podcasts: A podcast is an audio program that listeners can download to portable devices or their computers. Internet makes tracking podcasts very difficult. Several companies try, and we rely on podcastalley.com, the largest of them, for our data. The figures cited may not be comprehensive but still offer a glimpse of trends.
Satellite Radio: This system transmits audio with orbiting communication satellites rather than ground-based transmission, which gives it some benefits. While broadcast radio has a limited range, satellite signals can be received anywhere in the country and signals are less prone to static. A downside is that satellite radio reception is affected by weather or physical obstacles more than terrestrial broadcast radio. Listeners of satellite radio must, like cable TV viewers, pay a monthly fee.
Internet Radio: This is a term used to describe two types of audio accessed over the Internet. One is broadcast (or satellite) radio stations streaming their broadcasts online. The other is "pure play" Internet, such as Pandora. These services are available only over the Internet. Internet radio has also become a part of mobile radio. However, PEJ makes a distinction between "cellphone radio" and Internet radio picked up by mobile devices. Because so many mobile phones now have ready access to the Internet, Internet audio services have become a major problem for proponents of cellphone radio (below).
Cellphone Radio: These are cellphones that pick up AM/FM and HD radio stations. As of 2009, most cellphones did not yet have this capability.
Portable People Meter: This is an audience research device launched in 2008 by Arbitron. It is a portable device worn by survey participants that tracks all radio signals that they come in contact with. If they are near a radio, the device will pick up the station's identity, the time and date. The people meter does not distinguish between active listening and background signals the may come close to the wearer, such as at a supermarket.
Controversy over Arbitron's people meter methodology resulted in a number of lawsuits, most of them contending that the system under-represented ethnic minority audiences. All of the suits were settled or dismissed in early 2009. (for more on the controversy, see the 2009 report).
Arbitron: Arbitron is a radio ratings company founded in 1949 and has in recent decades been the dominant radio ratings provider. Until 2008, Arbitron's ratings were compiled using a written diary system in which participants wrote down what station they listened to and for how long. In 2008, Arbitron began the transition to a digital collection system, the portable people meter above.
Nielsen: Nielsen is a media ratings company that has long been the major provider of television network and station ratings. Nielsen stopped measuring radio in 1964, but in 2009 began measuring small- and medium-sized radio markets.

Lois Lowry's Blog
"This is your pilot speaking".....
...and what he said, as we sat on the runway in Punta Cana, was that we didn't have enough fuel to get to Newark, our destination. Whaaa???!! Wouldn't you think United Airlines would plan better? He had to go to another destination in the Caribbean, to refuel, thereby jeopardizing the connections of many passengers, including us.
But we eventually got home, with memories of a lovely vacation (view from the hotel room):
....and now my German family has returned to Germany and my granddaughter back to the Gymnasium she attends. Me, I ended up sick...I think from too much Airplane Air these last weeks...but revved and dosed myself up to head last Friday to Spokane for their annual quite spectacular GET LIT! festival. Several days of workshops, panels, readings, etc...many, many things going on. I missed most, alas, holed up in my hotel room with a throbbing head and drippy nose.
On Saturday night I did a reading from SON at the Bing Crosby Theater
and was followed by a stunning, standing-ovation, one-woman performance of THE GIVER by actress Mara Stephens of American PLace Theatre in NYC.
Headed home, still sniffling and swigging Sudafed, I was to change planes in Minneapolis /St. Paul, only to hear another: "Folks, this is your captain..."
Not surprising. The weather there was VERY ominous..
and we had to wait through some hefty and violent thunderstorms before we could take off.
But now I am home again, still slightly sick but on the mend, I think. And summer weather yesterday, almost eerily so: 90+ degrees.
Here is Alfie in the yard, glad to be home from the kennel, and me glad of his company (and that of Lulu).
Next? Minneapolis/St Paul again, next Wednesday...this time for the opening of The Giver opera there. Between now and then, some rest and recuperation here at home. I'm reading...and loving..."The Snow Child", a great book for hot days, set as it is in Alaska in winter.
And now I'm talking with my friend Kay and our travel agent—about this coming winter's trip. Two years ago we went to Easter Island. Last December, Guatemala. We have a new and exotic destination in mind but I'll hold off talking about it until it is firm.
Good that you reached safe and sound home that tooo enjoying all the way .. Nice clicks the hotel view is beautiful

(CBS/AP) California lettuce grower, River Ranch Fresh Foods, has expanded its voluntary recall of some bagged salads to the entire country, after routine sampling detected contamination with Listeria monocytogenes bacteria. No illnesses have been reported, the company said.
CDC declares Listeria outbreak from cantaloupes "over"
Listeria: 7 key questions answered
The voluntary recall by the Salinas, Calif.-based grower initially included lettuce shipped to California and Colorado. The bagged salads are sold under the names River Ranch, Farm Stand, Hy-Vee, Marketside, Shurfresh, The Farmer's Market, Cross Valley, Fresh n Easy, Promark and Sysco.
The recalled retail and food service salad bags have "best by" dates between May 12 and May 29 or Julian dates of 118 and 125. The code date is typically located in the upper right hand corner of the bags.
A full list of recalled retail salad bags can be found here, and a full list of recalled food service bags can be accessed here.
Consumers with questions can contact River Ranch 24-hours per day at 1-800-762-7708.
Symptoms of Listeria infection, or listeriosis, include high fever, diarrhea, headache, convulsions and neck stiffness. Older adults, pregnant women, and people with a weakened immune system are considered high-risk for the infection. Unlike many pathogens, Listeria monocytogenes bacteria can grow at room temperatures or refrigerator temperatures, and can linger long after the source of the contamination is gone.
Last year, cantaloupes grown in Holly, Colo. caused a Listeria outbreak that killed 30 people and caused one woman to have a miscarriage. The nearly five-month outbreak sickened 146 people across 28 states, HealthPopreported.
The CDC has more on Listeria infection.

After years of dealing with the chopping block, court systems throughout California would be spared additional cuts under Gov. Jerry Brown's budget proposal for the 2013-14 fiscal year.
That's good, local court officials say, because the courts cannot afford any more chipping away at their budgets.
In November, Los Angeles Superior Court proposed a restructuring plan that calls for 10 of its courthouses to close this year. San Bernardino Superior Court has closed its Chino courthouse and will close the Barstow and Needles courthouses later this year.
"Despite the huge cuts already imposed, we have implemented significant operating efficiencies that have allowed us to keep intact our ability to provide access to justice," said David S. Wesley, the presiding judge of Los Angeles Superior Court. "But we have run out of options."
Brown's budget proposal would secure about $3.1 billion in the 2013-14 budget for the state's court system, from its 58 trial courts to the California Supreme Court.
The budget, which was released Thursday, does propose draining $200 million from the judiciary by delaying courthouse construction projects.
About $1.2 billion has already been slashed from the judicial branch over the past few years.
Any more cuts would be devastating for local court systems, court officials said.
Under the restructuring plan introduced in November, Los Angeles County Superior Court services could decrease dramatically with 26 small-claims locations being reduced to six, 24 courts that hear collection cases going to two and personal injury locations declining from 12 to one.
"We're beyond trimming fat," said Mary Hearn, a spokeswoman for the Los Angeles Superior Court. "That happened a long time ago."
She likened the cuts so far to an old saying - "still using a scalpel rather than a sledgehammer."
"July 1 is when we start using the sledgehammer," Hearn said of the date the county's anticipated court closures will go into affect.
Even with those cuts, a shortfall of $85 million remains for the Los Angeles Superior Court system.
Last year, Brown forced the judiciary to divert $400 million from trial court reserves to help cover a $544 million budget cut.
In his 2013-14 budget outline, Brown warned that by the 2014-15 fiscal year there will be no more reserves to tap and that trial courts must make "permanent changes" to stay within projected budget levels.
"We started the current fiscal year with $125 million," Hearn said.
"The plan is to spend down those resources to $10 million at the end of the fiscal year so all of the discretionary funds will be spent."
The $10 million that will be left is restricted by a new state law that says courts cannot have more than 1 percent of their state allocation for their reserves come July 2014.
Stephen Nash, San Bernardino County Superior Court's executive officer, said that system's reserves have plunged from $32.8 million to $8.2 million. By June 30, 2014, he expects the reserve fund to be close to $800,000.
"That cap is just too little," Nash said last year. "That would not be enough to get us through a month of payroll."
District Attorney Michael A. Ramos said the recent cutbacks, such as the court closures and reduced staffing, have forced him to reorganize his entire office.
"Years ago, education took a big cut, then state prisons and now the courts," Ramos said.
But Ramos said he is choosing to look at the positives.
"It's going to make us more efficient. We're going to have more lawyers in major offices. We will have to work on new resources," he said. "We will see justice."
Ramos said he takes the governor at his word when he says there will be no additional cuts.
"We have to make sure we have the courts and judges to continue what I believe is the best system in the world," Ramos said.

This dog sniffs out low sugar trouble
POWELL, Tenn. — This beast is not only a looker. He's a lifesaver.
People are drawn to this 19-month-old dog, with his regal bearing and coat of tight, curly black fur, like bees to flowers.
But don't pet him, begs owner JoAnn Lasley of Powell.
That could derail his duty as a service dog.
Titus is a goldendoodle, or cross between a golden retriever and a poodle.
And because of his exquisitely sensitive sense of smell, he's on a round-the-clock mission.
Lasley has insulinoma tumors, which flood her body with an excess of insulin, causing her blood sugar level to drop. If it gets too low, it could lead to a coma or death.
Titus can sniff out the subtle change in odor when there's a sharp decline in blood sugar. That can happen, she said, as many as six times in a day.
Titus then alerts her by putting a paw on her knee, whether she's awake or asleep.
It's an urgent reminder, she said, to eat a snack. "I have to eat or I will bottom out. I will be really sick."
This 92-pound watchdog is persistent. He'll keep paw on knee until Lasley rouses and snacks or eats a glucose tablet.
Titus' reward: a tidbit of a snack of his own.
Lasley said she first noticed her ailment about three years ago when she awakened shaking and sweating.
When her condition was diagnosed, she said her family doctor "asked me if my spiritual house was in order. That indicated to me this was really serious."
She had tumors on her pancreas and on the major vein that routes blood from her legs back to her heart. Surgery, she was told, was too dangerous.
At first, she relied on a cumbersome — and painful — monitor to alert her. That system involves the insertion of a large needle into her abdomen.
A "tiny article" in a Saturday News Sentinel edition several months ago eventually led to Titus, Lasley said.
She learned about a woman in Middle Tennessee, Ann Walling, who launched a training program called Diabetic Alert Dogs — the Borderland Way.
Dogs of all types, mutts or those rescued from pounds, can be taught to perform this unique service, Lasley said.
Titus was already 10 months old and obedience trained when she purchased him in Blount County, she said.
Teaching Titus to be a unique service dog took months of relentless dedication.
"I decided if I was going to do this, I was going to do it right," she said. "I was in a room with Titus all the time for two months."
Finally, Titus began to alert Lasley even before her blood sugar monitor sounded. "He is a lot of work, but at 2 a.m. and my blood sugar's dropping, he's worth everything."
Walling in an email said Lasley "has done an outstanding job of training Titus. He alerts reliably after a little less than a year."
Now, Titus' role as a service dog is second nature, Lasley said, and the two are tied together like a button to a shirt.
That's where the no petting rule comes in. When Titus is out in public and wearing his blue service vest, he's on the job and tuned into Lasley's scent. If someone pets him, "he has their scent and not mine," Lasley said.
With a handsome dog like Titus, people have a hard time not petting him, she said.
"I took him to Dollywood and just had to leave," Lasley said.
"There are a lot of people that could use dogs like Titus," she said. "I had a couple stop me in the grocery. The husband has diabetes and his wife stays awake at night checking on him. When the husband heard about the training program, he broke down in tears."

He was probably THE best ice dancer in the world for years, but had to settle for Shae with accompanying results. He was Baiul-like in that he could skate to anything. Shae was either perky or pouty. As one would say "She ran the gamut of emotions from A to B." And I think this is the first and only time I could ignore the female in the pair. All I saw was Victor skating out there. He was an amazing dancer. Alas, alack.


text: On March 26, 2013, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) of the United States (US) issued its 14th Annual Statutory Report on Advance Pricing Agreements (APAs). The most interesting point of the report from the Japanese perspective is that 53% of bilateral APAs executed by the IRS in 2012 involved Japan as a counterparty (or 55 bilateral APAs in absolute numbers). Although the report is in its fourteenth year, this is the first time that data by counterparty jurisdiction have been released and suggest that, despite the growth in US trade with other countries in recent years, particularly China, the Japan/ US trade relationship still appears to be the most significant from the US tax perspective. But what does this relationship look like from the Japan side?

Comments about PBS NOVA: Ice Age Death Trap DVD:
I'm ordering this dvd after seeing it on Nova; one of the best reconstructions of what most likely happened to a large group of mastadons, mammoths, giant ground sloths and more right here in the USA (Colorado!) This is science at its BEST!
Comments about PBS NOVA: Ice Age Death Trap DVD:
Wonderful program about what was discovered in Colorado. Extremely educational and interesting. By far, the best NOVA program to date. Keep up the good work.

Ceviche with Mint and Grapefruit
Harvested by hand, pearly sea scallops showcase their natural sweetness and silken texture in this simple chilled appetizer. Juicy grapefruit and aromatic mint heighten the refreshing tang of the citrus marinade, while slivers of onion and chile impart a subtle heat.
- Servings: 4
Source: Martha Stewart Living, May 2008
- 1 Ruby Red grapefruit
- 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced (1/2 cup)
- 1/2 serrano chile, thinly sliced
- 1 cup fresh mint, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup fresh lime juice (from 2 to 3 limes)
- 1 teaspoon coarse salt
- 1/2 pound sea scallops, tough muscles removed, cut into 1/4-inch-thick rounds, or 1/2 pound sushi-grade yellowtail (hamachi), cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
- Micro mint, for garnish
Cut away peel and pith from grapefruit. Cut along membranes, releasing segments into a medium nonreactive bowl; reserve juice in bowl. Using a slotted spoon, transfer 1/2 of the segments to a cutting board; dice. (Reserve remaining segments for another use.) Transfer diced segments to a large nonreactive bowl. Strain reserved juice into a glass measuring cup. Pour 1/4 cup of the juice into the large bowl, reserving remaining juice for another use.
Add onion, chile, mint, lime juice, salt, and scallops or yellowtail to grapefruit mixture. Gently stir until well combined. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 2 hours. (Do not refrigerate for more than 2 hours; the scallops and yellowtail will become tough.)
Drain mixture, reserving liquid. Divide onion, chile, mint, and scallops or yellowtail among 4 serving plates. Garnish with micro mint, and drizzle with reserved liquid. Serve immediately.

David Cameron today repeated the claim his spokesman made yesterday that one of the reasons for the cap on tax reliefs was that some wealthy people were putting money into bogus offshore charities as a way of reducing tax.
The prime minister said:
I'm quite convinced we can get the balance right increasing philanthropy and charitable giving, which is an important part of our culture which I want to see expanded, and making sure the tax system isn't abused.
The government's comments on this have been met with confusion: if bogus charities were in operation, why didn't the Charity Commission stamp them out?
The answer, strangely, lies in a legal case launched by a German man, Hein Persche, against his local tax office in the province of Lüdenscheid, in 2009. Read more

Although I post this question in GUI, indeed, I really don't need a GUI as the application background, CLI is also OK for me.
I just don't know how to capture mouse click event in simple way even I checked the documents of Python.
I prefer to use Python 3.3 instead of 2.7.
I know there is a way by using pygame. But I expect a simpler way to implement because the program is not for game for sure.
So who can teach me a little? Thank you so much!

Unless you just woke up from a 24 hour nap, you are well aware that LeBron James has decided to return to Cleveland and rejoin Dan Gilbert's Cavs. Immediately, this decision opened up the trade rumors of Wolves' All-Pro Kevin Love being sent to Cleveland to join LeBron and Kyrie Irving to form the latest edition of "the big three".
However, the reports and rumors are swirling that Cleveland does not want to give up Andrew Wiggins, the #1 pick from last month's draft. For most Wolves fans, this is a non-starter in negotiations. Either Wiggins is included in the deal or there is no deal. Wolves' fans have to hope that Flip Saunders doesn't blink first in negotiations with the Cavs front office. [Read more…]

Dublin wants to meet you. So come and say hello to a cosmopolitan city that's as friendly as a village, as intimate as a pub and as full of new ideas as it is old characters
TripAdvisor twice hailed Dublin as the friendliest city in Europe. So what's the first thing you should do? Why, meet a Dubliner, of course. We've even got a program in place to connect first-time visitors with hospitable locals. It's called City of a 1,000 Welcomes (you've heard of the céad míle fáilte, right?), and it's going down a treat.
Another way to stock up on the low-down is by taking a tour. As well as traditional bus sightseeing experiences, visitors to Dublin can explore the city's haunted corners with Hidden Dublin Walking Tours, visit the latest cultural happenings and new openings with the Le Cool Dublin Experience, or explore the emerging docklands on a Segway tour.
Dublin has its big hits and historic sights (we're looking at you, Trinity College and the Guinness Storehouse). But truly, a visit is as much about the here and now.
New ideas and sparky start-ups are flourishing, with fresh scenes popping up along South William Street, Essex Street West and most recently, Capel Street. You can still hit up Grafton Street for high street shopping, but don't miss the buzzing bars and boutiques of the emerging Creative Quarter around South William Street to George's Street, and from Lower Stephen's Street to Exchequer Street.
The quays are quite the architectural catwalk, too. From Daniel Libeskind's Bord Gáis Energy Theatre at Grand Canal Dock to the Custom House and U2's Clarence Hotel, Dublin's skyline seems at once rooted in present and past. All that's missing, as the late poet Seamus Heaney said, are "the Vikings coming sniffing up the Liffey".

Dublin, of course, is famous beyond its friendliness. James Joyce immortalised the city and its people in masterpieces such as Ulysses, and it continues to live and breathe the written word. Dublin is a UNESCO World City of Literature, but it's not just its authors who are interested in spinning yarns... hence the famous local greeting: What's the story?
The best places to join the conversation are Dublin's pubs, clubs and cafés. New or old, fashionable or funky, gorgeous or grimy – there's something for everyone's taste here. Three to make aim for are The Fumbally (a café-cum-collective on Fumbally Lane), Izakaya (the Japanese whiskey bar on South Great George's Street) and Everleigh Garden ("70% outdoors, 30% indoors and 100% friendly," as it says itself) on Harcourt Street.
Finally, don't forget Temple Bar – a cobblestoned enclave of galleries, restaurants, hopping pubs, buskers and the shape-shifting Meeting House Square. Perhaps check out another newbie to the urban landscape, which went unappreciated until relatively recently: Dublin's twist on grafitti, murals and tagging. Challenge your perceptions with a Street Art tour around Temple Bar's streets and alleys – who knows what you'll discover…
Dublin wants to meet you... come say hello.

This has been a long time coming, but I am afraid that I must remove Pokemon Teams from the wiki. As of now all it does is take up space with its many pages and templates. Without a consistent leader to manage it, it has done nothing but, as I said, take up space. We gave Vulkan a month to rejuvenate the group, it has been more than a month, but I feel he has given up on it. It has also never had a successful competition. I will start deleting and removing templates from its main page later next week. I suggest all of you active members start removing the templates from your user pages soon. If you feel we should keep the teams, discuss it by leaving a comment below in the conversation section. Crimsnnavy C S 23:17, October 5, 2011 (UTC)

Don't stop until you get a burr along the entire edge and are able to get it on both sides before you move on to the next finer stone. I should mention here that once you have this burr, you need to remove it by going very light or using the hard felt. Otherwise you just sharpen the burr and not the edge. At 600 and up, you are polishing the edge, so this does not apply. Go through your stones and then strop for as many levels as you want.

Daniel Mayhugh has not received any gifts yet
I am based between the UK and the Philippines (Panay) I have lived in Philippines for 3 years (my wife is Filipino so always backwards and forwards). My current research work is trying to gather data on mangroves their utilization and management and opening this information up to communities to assist in livelihood development and help them reduce dependency on others.
My biggest problem so has been problems getting Frontline to see my phone, think need switch to GSM modem so any hints on what works in Philippines would be great.
Hi Daniel,
I hope that you have managed to get FrontlineSMS working okay now? If you still require assistance from the team and other users it is generally best to start a fresh discussion topic on Ning, rather than adding comments on to older discussions. That way all of the info about your problem stays in one place, and it is therefore easier to give effective help. I hope this makes sense.
Thanks for your interest in FrontlineSMS, and for getting involved on the Forum too!
All the Best,

[VS] Sunday, May 12 1900BST: EsotericReverie Teaches Facilities!
On May 12th EsotericReverie will be leading a training session consisting of:
- Tour of one safe major facility (Tech, Amp, Bio) - est 20 minutes
- Tour of one safe support structure (Tower, Outpost) - est 10 minutes
- Goal-oriented Attack/Defense of these specific structures in a contested situation - est 30 minutes to 1 hour
The goal of the first part of this event is to familiarize new players with the layout of a specialized facility, explain common attack and defense setups, and determine goals for the following live-fire situation. Goals will be specific, achievable objectives determined by Eso. Examples include:
- Take the horizontal generator and hold it for two minutes
- Jump the wall as a squad of Light Assault and disable a generator
- Defend point A in a Biolab
- Capture an outpost
- Infiltrate and hack a Tower. Spawn a Sunderer.
As outlined above, this session will require about 30 minutes of your attention while someone else talks before you will have any real fun. If this doesn't sound like something that's for you, that's fine and there's nothing wrong with you. We'll continue to refine this process until we come up with a lesson plan that works.
Eso will probably have to work with whatever Mumble channel is open that night, so when you join please go directly to him for instructions on where to meet up. A Galaxy will likely leave from the Warpgate at his chosen continent.
This thread will be for feedback and discussion AFTER the event. I'm hoping to get it stickied to the front page until the 12th. Please do not post here with suggestions or RSVPs. I will edit here if anything needs to be changed before then.

Even after around 18 hours into the game I still learned some very useful (and partially basic) things tonight. Thank you very much!
I will definitly join another training session if there is one.
Hey there, happy to hear you guys enjoyed it. Thanks to my handy helpers, Bazzabat, Coffeetable, even AnthresMemoriam who joined the outfit during the training session and brought a few good tips with him! I'll be seeing you around Auraxis!
A quick rundown of what we went through during this 90 minute session:
Allatum Bio Lab: general walkthrough of the layout of the base, cap points, teleporters, satellites, SCU shields and gens, how to assault, what to defend, the importance of satellites.
Indar Bay Point: a large outpost, tank/air spawns, layout of the tower, how to get out of the spawn room, hacking turrets, good camping locations on the tower.
Ayani Labs: a small outpost, transport only spawns, the layout of the spawn room, AMS Sunderers and the importance of having multiple such when assaulting, the importance of teamwork and sticking together.
Flash race to Peris; follow the smoke! Good fun, but very confusing. For the record, MrAnderson was first through the gates, and won the race. Congratulations!
Peris Amp Station: the layout of an amp station, facility shields and horizontal and vertical gens, tank shields and gens, SCU location, back entrance through SCU room, the battlements, defenders-only jump pads, lifts to the roof, using the tunnel system to get to SCU and walls above gennies, climbing towers from the outside.
The planned play session using the newly gained knowledge didn't happen.
Overall a very pleasant and enjoyable experience, I think! Got many good questions and straightened out quite a few question marks about a things unrelated to facilities as well.
Thanks for everyone who joined in!
Please post any feedback you might have. Personally, I got dreadfully tired of hearing my own voice towards the end there, so I'm happy a couple of others pitched in...
I learned a lot and it was very well presented. Remembering all that in a fight however is another problem.
I'm a bit suspicious about the attack at the end of the bio lab training, though... The timing was too perfect
Even with almost 200 hours in game, I found the training handy. I came along to try and help as well as brush up my skills and it was well worth it. I learned a few facts I had no idea about (such as climbing the base walls).
Thank you, Eso for donating your time; it was fun AND educational!
PS: Your voice has a soothing quality to it.
Hehe yeah, There was an ongoing TR assault of Hvar, NS Secure Data Lab and TI Alloys, so Allatum was sandwiched between TR forces. Just blind random luck that there was noone there already when we first got there.
There was a lot of information, and all of it won't stick for sure. Hopefully, some of it will pop up when you're out there fighting, and you see features of the base layout that remind you of what was said during the training session.
And, thanks Rei! Happy to have you along.

Just to add my gratitude for the training session. I've only literally picked up PS2 on Saturday after all the glorious reports on the 'Call to Arms' events. Reminded me so much of the days back in PS1 that I just couldn't resist anymore. Looking forward to some action with you RPS folks.
Hey there! Glad to hear you're happy with last night. These Call to Arms events have proven to be amazing publicity, both for the outfit, for the Miller server, and for Planetside 2 in general. So many new names in Mumble since Thursday!
What's your game tag, by the way? Don't remember any Dudeness from last night. We very much appreciate if everyone matches forum names with game names, or at least include game names in a signature or similar, so we know who's who. Might just be me who can't recall seeing you though...

Topic: Oxaliplatin plus
My husband, John, was diagnosed with cholangiocarcinoma in March 2008..stagfe 4 with metasteses to his pancreas, liverm and lymph nodes. He has been through 12 cycles of Gemcitibine...he had reduced CA 19-9 numbers after the first six treatments (from 4700 to 3300), but the numbers have gone up to 9700 and the recent CT scan shows that the tumors in the pancreas, bile ducts and liver have gotten larger.
The Dr. gave us 2 treatment options...one, to discontinue all treatment or two, to try "Folfox"...I think it is F-5U with Eloxatin (Oxaliplatin). Our insurance company has said that the Eloxatin is considered experimental for his type of cancer and has denied authorizing payment for it.
Have any of you used this chemo agent? Had any hassles with your insurance companies getting authorization for it? I think the Dr.s rational is that even though this drug is tested for colon cancer, since both colon cancer and bile duct cancers are adenocarcinomas, this might work.
Any insight or experiences would be greatly appreciated.

I have the pleasure of introducing you to Philip Trauring of the Blood and Frogs: Jewish Genealogy and More blog. Philip describes his blog as . . . "showing different genealogical research techniques, primarily by example. There is a focus on Jewish genealogy, but all genealogical researchers should find useful techniques for doing research. Recent topics have included using FindAGrave.com, historical newspapers, and finding and retrieving Jewish records in Poland."
Philip currently resides in Israel, and is originally from Brookline, Massachusetts. Philip would like genealogists to know, "I just wanted to add that when I was answering the question about my hometown, and I added where I was from originally (Brookline, MA) that I reflexively wrote Boston, MA first, since much fewer people know Brookline compared to Boston. I then realized I fell into the same trap as many ancestors who listed the city near their small town instead of the name of their town, which while it may have been easier at the time, causes no end to frustrations for family researchers a century later. So, I'm from Brookline!"
How Philip Got Started in Genealogy
Philip had come to the realization one day that if he didn't start asking questions, there wouldn't be anyone to ask. For the last 15 years, Philip has been researching his family history off and on. He goes through periods where he will spend much more time researching, than at other times. Recently, Philip has dedicated more time to genealogy, which has given him more to write about on his blog.
Philip's Blog and His Family
It has only been recently that Philip started to share his blog with family members, but he feels they like it so far. Most of his family members are not into genealogy, so it's not necessarily of great interest to them. In Philip's own words, "I think they just wonder where I find the time."
Philip doesn't put his personal research on his blog, so his blog is not something that his family follows in that way. Philip does use examples from his own research occasionally, but not in a way that his family or friends would want to follow – unless they were interested in genealogy.
For Philip's family, he published a book on one branch a few years ago, and he is currently working on expanding the book to include other branches.
How Philip Follows the Rest of Us
Philip likes to follow most of his favorite bloggers, via Twitter. When Philip sees a tweet linking to an interesting post, he will click on it. Philip likes to tweet his own blog postings to @bloodandfrogs. Through Twitter, Philip follows about a dozen or so blogs, he may or may not read all 12 blogs, on a daily basis.
Email is not Philip's usual avenue of keeping up with blog reading; however, he does subscribe to several genealogy related newsletters which have links to blog postings included.
Philip's Thoughts on Blogging
It was always a surprise to Philip when he would meet people who have been doing genealogy for years, and yet, didn't know about certain basic resources and methods that could push their genealogy further ahead. Philip wanted to share different resources and methods that he had found useful in his own research, so others would benefit as well. Philip hopes, "I'll also learn from others and be able to move my own research forward. No one knows everything there is to know, and resources online change all the time, so it's a good way to tap into the community's knowledge."
Philip's blog title came about by wanting something easy to remember and something no one could misspell. The origin of the title itself is the first two plagues in the story of Exodus from Egypt in the Bible: " I figured blood and genealogy go together, and frogs, well…"
Philip's only hesitation on blogging, was he was concerned that he wouldn't know what to write about, but as he put it, "Thankfully, I haven't lacked for topics yet."
What Philip Loves Most About Genealogy
Philip likes the continuity: "I like knowing my history, and knowing where I came from. As one builds their family tree, there are a lot of 'life' lessons one can learn, when you realize the hardships your ancestors lived through, and you see what amazing things they did, (as well as the simple things) and what decisions they made for their families."
Philip's Time Capsule Message
"There is truth out there, you just need to spend the time to find it."
* * *
Please head on over to Philip's blog, leave him a message letting him know you stopped by. Welcome Philip, it's great to have you here!

Jose Mourinho's side returns to Liga action with a trip to Balaidos on Sunday after its comeback win against Manchester United in the Champions League round of 16.
Celta Vigo midfielder Natxo Insa will miss the Primera Division encounter against Real Madrid with a hamstring problem.
Defenders Hugo Mallo and Samuel (both knee) are also sidelined, but Roberto Lago could return after recovering from flu.
Madrid boss Jose Mourinho will be without Angel Di Maria, who suffered a hamstring injury in Tuesday's 2-1 win at Manchester United.
Sergio Ramos and Xabi Alonso are unlikely to be risked after playing through niggling injuries at Old Trafford, while Cristiano Ronaldo (illness) is a minor doubt.
- Celta Vigo has won just one of its last eight matches in La Liga (W1, D2, L5).
- The Galician outfit has lost its last five Liga encounters against Real Madrid at Balaidos.
- Celta's last home Liga win over Madrid was a 3-0 success in May 2001.
- Real Madrid is on a five-match winning run in all competitions.
- But Los Merengues have only won four of their last nine away games across all competitions, losing three in the process.
- With his winner against Manchester United, Cristiano Ronaldo (pictured, right) surpassed Eusebio's record of 46 goals to become the leading Portuguese goalscorer in the European Cup.

January 29, 2013 — Santa Barbara, Ca
RRA was my Dad. He sevred in the USAAC in WW2 (fighter pilot in Burma) The hump with the 88 aces. After 30 years he retired form the USAF at the rank of Lt. Col. He loved what he did so much that he was constantly gone, off to war. WW2, Korea, Congo conflict and a tour in Vietnam.
He flew the following: TA 26 trainer, P40, P51, F-11.
Personal note: He liked his booze and cig's. It got the best of him and he died young in 1992 at the age of 75. He tried to be a good father but did not know how. He was very driven to do better and therfore I have good admiration in that he sevred our conutry well. He priovided all of us a great safe country to live. Provided the freedom of speech and thought. I am thankfull for that.
RIP Dad
Dana Anderson
I will post a picture soon.
