Lions Collect Series-Opening Win
SAINT LEO, Fla. – Each of the Lions' starting nine collected at least one hit as the Saint Leo softball team (24-28, 8-15 SSC) overpowered Sunshine State Conference foe Eckerd College (14-38, 2-20 SSC), 9-1, in a run-ruled shortened contest Wednesday evening from University Stadium.
The Lions, led by a four-run first inning, outhit the Tritons, 15-2 and posted tallies in all but one inning.
Leading the group of sluggers was right fielder Alex Garris as she tied a career high with three hits. The sophomore scored a pair of runs and also drove in two. Danielle Moreda was a perfect 2-for-2 with three RBI while leadoff hitter Ashlee Sismilich as well as Brittany Yates and senior Elysha Agen also registered two hits.
The Saint Leo offense wasted no time in asserting its dominance as the squad etched a four spot on the scoreboard in the bottom of the first inning.
The Lions posted six hits in the frame, all singles, and batted around the order. Moreda opened the scoring for the Green and Gold as her base knock scored Garris from third. Ali Lamb and Ana Castillo followed with back-to-back, one out base hits while Kristen Kelly's RBI groundout capped the Lions' scoring outburst.
After Eckerd grabbed one back in the second, the Lions proved equal to the challenge as Moreda roped her second RBI single in as many innings scoring Yates from third.
The Lions added to their 5-1 lead in the third inning as Garris poked and RBI single up the middle scoring Megan Still, who reached base earlier in the inning on her first collegiate hit.
After seeing their scoring streak stopped in the fourth, Saint Leo put the finishing touches on the offensive masterpiece as they scored three runs pushing the the outcome to its eventual 9-1 final.
Kelly, the Lions' starting pitcher, posted her first collegiate hit to spark the game ending rally. Three batters later, Kelly came around to score on a Garris RBI single. After Sismilich slid in safely on a wild pitch, Moreda drew a four-pitch, bases loaded walk to wrap up the game.
It is the Lions seventh run-rule win of the season.
In the circle, Kelly tied her career high in wins, nine, as she scattered two hits in five innings of work.
Alex Sasso took the loss for the Tritons, falling to 5-16 on the season.
Saint Leo will wrap-up their regular season with a doubleheader against Eckerd on Thursday, April 28. First pitch is scheduled for 6:00 p.m. from University Stadium. In addition, tomorrow is senior night as the Lions will be bidding farewell to five seniors.

PHILADELPHIA – After an opening weekend that went about as well as could be hoped for, the University of Pennsylvania women's soccer team will look to keep the good times rolling this weekend with another pair of games. The Quakers host neighborhood rival Drexel on Friday afternoon at 5 p.m. -- a match that will take place at Penn Park -- before "hitting the road" to City Avenue on Sunday for another matchup with a city foe, Saint Joseph's. That game will kick off at 1 p.m.

Penn at The Park
You will excuse head coach Darren Ambrose if he has second thoughts about moving back to Rhodes Field once it's ready for match play. After all, the Quakers have played at Penn Park twice now, and both results have been 4-0 victories. They hope to keep that trend going on Friday!
The Series with Drexel
The Quakers lead the Dragons, 8-1, but that one loss came last year when Drexel pulled out a 1-0 victory on their Vidas Field. Prior to that, the teams had not met since 2004.
About Drexel
The Dragons (3-2-1) split a pair of decisions last weekend, falling to Liberty 3-0 but defeating Longwood 1-0. Drexel's other wins have come over Marist and UMBC, and the Dragons have tied Villanova. Shyanne Kimbrough had the winner in last Sunday's victory; it was her team-leading fourth this season. Megan Hammaker and Alyssa Findlay have a goal and an assist this season, while Jess Sarkisian has also scored this season. At the other end, Eve Badana has played every minute in goal for the Dragons; she has a 0.93 goals-against average and a .750 save percentage.
The Series with Saint Joseph's
The Quakers and the Hawks met for five straight years from 2007-11, with Penn winning four of those games and the teams splitting a 0-0 decision in 2009 (the only other time the Quakers have made the trip to Hawk Hill). Add in a Penn win in 2000, and you have the Red and Blue leading the series 5-0-1.
About SJU
The Hawks (3-1-2) were unbeaten through their first five matches this season, before falling to Liberty 3-0 last Sunday. Emily Gingrich leads SJU with four goals, while Mo Hawkins has two. Three other women have scored once. In goal, expect to see Lauren Jancuska. Before Sunday's matchup with Penn, Saint Joseph's will host Loyola (Md.) on Friday night.
About Penn
*Penn is 25-8-2 overall in the last two-plus seasons after last weekend's season-opening wins, and 29-9-4 over its last 42 matches dating back to the 2010 season. In those 42 matches, Penn has allowed just 26 goals and posted 25 shutouts.
*So much for starting later than the rest of the country being a disadvantage; last weekend's wins also got Penn off to a 2-0-0 start for the third straight season and the fourth time in five campaigns.
*Not only did Penn win both games last weekend, they did so in record fashion. The Quakers' combined 8-0 margin of victory was a season best, topping the previous mark of a combined 6-0 margin set by the 1998 squad. (That 1998 squad went on to win its third, fourth and fifth games by 4-0 margins each, and had seven shutouts to start the campaign—so there is work to do for this year's team!)
*Perhaps most impressive in Penn's wins last weekend was the fact that seven different women scored, and 13 recorded a point. The only multi-goal scorer was freshman defender Tahirih Nesmith.
*Senior Kerry Scalora had a goal and two assists in the season-opening win, and is tied with Nesmith for the team lead with four points. Another senior, Kathryn Barth, had a goal and an assist against Saint Peter's.
*Late in the Saint Peter's match, Nikoletta Georgalis -- a junior walk-on from the track team -- came into the match for Penn to make her collegiate debut; mere minutes after that, she scored her first collegiate goal.
*It was an all-class affair against Mount St. Mary's on Sunday as senior Brianna Rano, junior Megan York and sophomore Elissa Berdini joined the freshman Nesmith on the goal-scoring ledger.
*Penn outshot Saint Peter's and The Mount by a combined 45-4 on the weekend, so the goalkeepers were not too busy. That said, sophomore Kalijah Terilli -- who played the first half vs. SPC and the second against MSM -- was tested in both games and came up with solid saves. Junior Katherine Myhre played the other half in both matches and was not called on to make a save.
*Penn returns two women who earned All-Ivy honors last year, seniors Scalora (first-team forward) and Rano (second-team defender). Scalora was also the 2010 Ivy League and ECAC Rookie of the Year.
*Barth, meanwhile, was a second-team All-Ivy and second-team NSCAA all-region selection two years ago, as a sophomore.
*Scalora led Penn in scoring last year, tallying four goals and three assists for 11 points. Two other returning players, Barth and sophomore Erin Mikolai, had three goals apiece.
*In addition to Mikolai, another sophomore to keep an eye on up front is Berdini. She had two goals and two assists last season.
*Three other returning players scored twice last year: senior Claire Walker -- who is a captain of this year's team with Scalora and Rano -- and the juniors Kaitlyn Moore and Clara Midgley.
*Moore will step into the middle of the park, looking to replace the graduated Erin Beck. Another returning candidate for that position is senior Laura Oliver.
*Penn lost its two central defenders from a year ago, All-Ivy pick Alex Dayneka and Erin Thayer. On the other hand, sophomores Caroline Dwyer and Jazmyne Simmons are two women who saw lots of time in the backfield along with Rano last year. Cooper also has experience.

Bid rigging involves groups of firms conspiring to raise prices or lower the quality of the goods or services offered in public tenders. Although illegal, the anti-competitive practice is widely applied and continues to cost governments and taxpayers billions of dollars every year across the world. The OECD Guidelines for Fighting Bid Rigging in Public Procurement aim to make bid rigging more difficult for contractors and help government officials identify suspicious bidding.
Mexico has partnered with the OECD to improve its procurement practices and step up its fight against bid rigging. When Mexico's Social Security Department signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the OECD and Mexico's Competition Commission in January 2011, it became the first public agencothy in Mexico (and in the world) to formally commit to adopt and implement the OECD Competition Committee's Guidelines for Fighting Bid Rigging in Public Procurement.
OECD Guidelines for Fighting Bid Rigging in Public Procurement
Strengthening the competition and regulation framework in Mexico
All other competition reports on Mexico
Mexico's Petroleum (PEMEX)
PEMEX, one of the largest oil companies in the world with 150 000 employees and an annual budget in 2015 of about MXN 570 billion, is also the largest purchaser of goods and services in the Mexican public sector. In 2013, a reform opened the energy sector to competition while keeping the ownership of Mexico's hydrocarbons under state control. Following this reform, PEMEX is subject to new procurement rules that aim to make procurement processes more efficient and effective.
The OECD analysed the new regime and procurement procedures of PEMEX. The resulting report presents the main findings and provides recommendations to promote competition and fight bid rigging in accordance with international best practices.
The report was launched on11 January 2017 in Mexico city in presence of OECD Secretary-General Angel Gurría, PEMEX's DG José Antonio Gonzáles Anaya and José Antonio Meade Kuribreña, Mexico's Secretary of Finance.
Mexico's Federal Electricity Commission (CFE)
Mexico's main electricity company, the Comisión Federal de Electricidad (CFE) is the second largest public entity in terms of procurement budget, with over 300 purchasing units throughout the country and a procurement budget which represents almost 20% of all Federal procurement.
In 2013, CFE thus asked the OECD and the Mexican Competition Authority (COFECE) to review its procurement practices in light of the 2012 OECD Recommendation and Guidelines for Fighting Bid Rigging in Public Procurement.
The resulting report includes an analysis of CFE's practices, laws and regulations and provides several recommendations on how to enhance procurement procedures. The report was released on 7 January 2015 at a launch ceremony attended by OECD Secretary-General Angel Gurría (transcript of speech in Spanish).
Mexican State's Employees' Social Security and Social Services Institute (ISSSTE)
The State's Employees' Social Security and Social Services Institute (ISSSTE) is the second largest Mexican social service agency in terms of the annual volume of goods and services purchased and the fifth largest federal procurement group.
In order to actively promote genuine competition in the purchasing of goods and services and to continue its fight against bid rigging in public procurement, ISSSTE signed an agreement with the OECD in June 2012. Under this agreement, the OECD committed to provide training to ISSSTE procurement officials and to submit an analytical report on issues relating to bid rigging and effective competitive procurement.
The ISSSTE report includes an analysis of ISSSTE's practices, laws and regulations and provides several recommendations on how to enhance procurement procedures. The report was released on 14 November 2013 at a launch ceremony attended by OECD Secretary-General Angel Gurría (transcript of speech in Spanish).
Government of the State of Mexico (GEM)
The State of Mexico (Gobierno del Estado de México, GEM) is the largest of Mexico's 31 states in terms of the annual volume of goods and services purchased. It spends approximately 23 percent of its annual budget on public procurement.
After his election in September 2011, Eruviel Avila Villegas (Governor of the State of Mexico) decided to seek the OECD's assistance to improve the State's procurement practices and to step up its fight against bid rigging. An agreement with the OECD and the CFC was signed in October 2011.
As a result of this agreement, the OECD drafted a report on Procurement Legislation, Regulations, and Practices in the State of Mexico with policy recommendations. This report was presented officially on 30 October 2012 during John Davies' visit to Mexico to meet Governor Avila Villegas and other top level Mexican officials.
Mexico's Social Security Department (IMSS)
Mexico's Social Security Department spends around 2.5 billion US dollars annually on pharmaceuticals and other goods and services. Stepping up their fight against bid rigging by companies tendering for government contracts, the Mexican Competition Authority and the Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS) signed a co-operation agreement with the OECD in January 2011 to implement the OECD guidelines. Since then, the OECD and the Mexican Competition Authority have been working with the IMSS to improve rules and procedures, and to train procurement officers.
In January 2012, the OECD issued a report on IMSS's procurement regulations and practices. The report also includes policy recommendations in key procurement areas such as market studies, co-ordination with other parts of government, and training activities:

A NEW centre for TEFL teaching will open in Winchester this autumn.
The language school English Naturally was given the go-ahead by the Trinity Exam Board to offer courses training people to teach English as a foreign language.
Director Chris Polatch said: "We'll be offering courses for locals on a part-time basis initially, but we also plan to run full-time courses. These could be attended by locals and by people from around the world who will find Winchester an attractive location to do the Trinity course."
The director of studies, Jane Gamble, has worked on the project to put together the course website and programme. She said: "We spent over a year putting our proposal together and it was gone over by the finest of toothcombs by Trinity, who sent back suggestions for revisions before finally giving us the go-ahead.
"There are lots of dubious TEFL courses on offer, but the Trinity certificate is highly respected worldwide. Successful graduates of our course should be able to find work in any country they choose."
The first course, which will be delivered on a part-time basis, is due to commence in September.

Provide 2,500 Family Bibles in Paraguay
Monday, April 14, 2014
Project Code: 233-04-89
Paraguay is a very Catholic country, with some 87% of its close to 6.5 million inhabitants professing the Catholic faith. Almost half of all young people are involved in one Church group or another, such as local parish youth groups. The Church also maintains numerous schools. The Salesian Fathers are very active in youth work. They run 25 schools nationwide, with over 15,000 students, plus an additional six youth movements with some 400 youth group leaders, and twelve social centers, including soup kitchens and daycare centers, in which some 5,000 children from the poorest families are cared for. Twenty years ago the Salesians also set up the first center for street children in the country.The Salesians always strive to combine their social and charitable work with pastoral outreach and religious education. Since most people in Paraguay are very open to faith, the opportunities they offer are very much welcomed.Now there is a plan to involve the parents more closely in the work of the 25 schools run by the Salesians in order to strengthen the education in the faith not only within the schools but also within the families. To this end the Salesians want to purchase 2,500 copies of the Family Bible and extend their Bible courses to include the parents as well. ACN is helping for this with a contribution of $8,600. Will you join us in giving to provide Family Bibles in Paraguay?Aid to the Church in Need commits to invest your funds where they will have the greatest impact for the Church that we serve. Funds donated to Aid to the Church in Need's projects will be used towards the greatest need in our programs to help keep the Faith alive.

NURSES, care assistants and therapists from Winchester have been awarded at this year's Hampshire Hospitals Director of Nursing Awards.

Abbi Lascelles, a physiotherapist at RHCH, won the allied health professional award. She was nominated by Peter Roberts, who was treated by Abbi when he was almost unable to walk because of pains in his joints and back.
He said: "I really don't think I would still be here if Abbi had not been there. She has given me the confidence to walk, to work and to carry on."
The audience of more than 300 nominees, colleagues, former patients and families heard stories of the staff Hampshire Hospitals Foundation Trust's three hospitals.
Hampshire Hospitals chief nurse and deputy chief executive, Donna Green, hosted the ceremony which was attended by the Mayor of Winchester, deputy Mayor of Test Valley and Councillor Dan Putty, the former Mayor of Basingstoke and Deane.

Hi friends!
After a busy weekend of moving, cleaning and unpacking, we are finally settling down in our new home. We are not quite done yet, of course, but the basics are all sorted out and at least we can get on with our daily lives. I am loving all the space, the abundant natural light and the huge north facing balcony in our new home. We are located near a peaceful lagoon and a 5 minute walk from an ocean beach which is exactly what we wanted. In the morning, whilst having breakfast on the balcony, I could smell the salty sea and hear the loud waves crashing against the beach. Just magical.
Here is a little sneak peek into our new kitchen. It is not quite ready yet, as it's missing bar stools and a few other things. I will post lots more photos when we have everything sorted out and all our new furniture is in. I love the open plan kitchen though and there is so much storage space! It's a huge change from our previous tiny kitchen and I can already tell how much easier cooking is when there is actually space to move around.
I prepared this beetroot and liquorice soup for lunch today. It was unseasonally cold and rainy for a summer's day, so a soup was just perfect. The quinoa flat bread is an adaptation from a traditional Finnish potato flat bread. I've cooked it on stove top, but you could of course bake it in the oven as well. I love the combination of beets and liquorice. We Nordic people are mad about liquorice, and it certainly complements the sweet beetroot so well. I couldn't be happier!
Beetroot and liquorice soup with quinoa flat bread
(serves 2)
1 tablespoon virgin coconut oil
550g beetroot, peeled and chopped into cubes
large knob of fresh ginger, peeled and grated
3 green onions, chopped
2 teaspoons ground liquorice*
pinch of salt
2 teaspoons pink peppercorns, slightly crushed
1 litre water
125ml almond milk**
* Ground liquorice is available at spice shops. In Sydney you can get it from Herbie's Spices.
** My recipe for almond milk is here.
1. Heat the coconut oil in a large saucepan. Add the beetroot and ginger and cook for a few minutes.
2. Add the green onions, liquorice, salt, peppercorns and water and let the soup simmer on low heat for 30-40 minutes or until the beetroot is tender. Set aside to cool.
3. Purée the soup in a blender. Stir in the almond milk. Serve warm or room temperature.
Quinoa flat bread
(makes 4-5)
250ml recently boiled water
60g quinoa flakes*
60g quinoa flour
pinch of salt
* Quinoa flakes are found in health food stores. Look for flakes in particular, not the 'normal' quinoa. In Sydney, Honest to Goodness stocks excellent quinoa flakes.
1. Place the quinoa flakes in a bowl and top them with boiling water. Leave to soak for a few minutes.
2. Add in the flour and salt and mix to combine.
3. Dust your fingers in some extra flour and form small round breads (10cm across, 1cm thick). Cook the breads in a dry skillet on medium heat for a few minutes on each side. The bread should feel firm to touch and there should be a few brown spots on the cooked surface. Alternatively you can bake the breads in 200C oven for 10-15 minutes. Serve warm with the beetroot and liquorice soup.

AN East Lancashire man said he was 'heartborken and furious' to hear that a baby had died after contracting a deadly infection from a suspected contaminated drip - because 20 years ago his son died after a similar tragedy.
Coun Roy Davies said the NHS had 'clearly failed to learn lessons' from the death of his son Timothy at the Royal Manchester Children's Hospital in 1994, despite being given assurances that 'things like this would never happen again'.
Nine-year-old Timothy had been undergoing treatment for leukaemia and contracted a deadly blood infection from an intravenous feed. It also emerged that two other babies had died after contracting the same infection from drips.
Babies under the care of East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust (ELHT) are 'not at risk' from contaminated drip feeds, bosses said.
Coun Davies, a Darwen councillor and former chairman of the health scrutiny committee at Blackburn with Darwen Council, said he was devasted to learn of the death of a baby boy at St Thomas' Hospital in London on Sunday, after he contracted a deadly bacterial infection at the neonatal intensive care unit.
It has since been reported that 18 babies across nine hospitals in the south-east have been struck down with blood poisoning, brought on by an infection that has been 'strongly linked' to an intravenous fluid supplied by London-based pharmaceutical firm ITH Pharma.
They had all been given a fluid called parenteral nutrition - which is supposed to deliver a variety of nutrients intravenously when a baby is unable to eat on its own.
Coun Davies, of Olive Lane, said: "I'm fuming because I feel like Timothy has died for nothing. It was a big national story at the time and they said they would put things in place to make sure it never happened again, and here we are it's happening again.
"I feel really disgusted and let down."
Dr Rineke Schram, chief medical officer at ELHT, said: "We can confirm that no babies in our neo-natal unit are at risk from this incidence of contamination.
"The unit at The Lancashire Women's and Newborn Centre does not use the lipid preparation of the intravenous feed incriminated in the outbreak in the south-east.
"We will of course, continue to remain vigilant. We have spoken to all parents of our babies on intravenous feeding, and provided reassurance."
The suspected contaminated feeds are being investigated by officials from the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) and the authority is also promoting ITH Pharma's product recall on certain batches of the fluid.

Home > Health & Wellness > Health Library > Blood Thinners Other Than Warfarin: Taking Them Safely
Blood thinners are medicines that help prevent blood clots. Although they are called blood thinners, they don't really thin the blood. They slow down the time it takes for a blood clot to form.
You have to be careful when you take blood thinner medicines. They can raise the risk of serious bleeding. But you can do some simple things to help prevent problems.
This Actionset is about all blood thinner medicinesexcept warfarin (Coumadin). There are some extra steps you have to take if you take warfarin. To learn more, see Warfarin: Taking Your Medicine Safely.
You can take blood thinner medicine safely by taking a few steps:
Call 911 or other emergency services right away if you have:
Call your doctor now or seek immediate medical care if you have:
If you are injured, apply pressure to stop bleeding. Realize that it
will take longer than you are used to for the bleeding to stop. If you can't get the bleeding to stop, call your doctor.
Give your list of medicines to every doctor and dentist who treats you. Taking certain medicines along with a blood thinner can cause bleeding. It also can change how well your medicines work.
To avoid problems:
If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or trying to get pregnant, talk with your doctor. You and your doctor will decide what medicines are safe for you during pregnancy. Do not use any medicines unless your doctor tells you to.
To learn more about taking aspirin safely, see Aspirin to Prevent Heart Attack and Stroke.
Check with your doctor as soon as you can before any surgery or test (such as a colonoscopy). You may need to stop taking your blood thinner or some of your other medicines up to a week or more before the procedure. Your doctor will tell you when it is safe to start taking your medicine again.

Below are some pictures from the last two weekends. Mmmm, lots of good eats.
Last weekend: ribs, baked beans, & a very small ham (not in picture).
The baked beans were delicious. My wife was going to bake them in the oven, I said why fire up the oven when the smoker is already hot.
Cooked these ribs side-by-side, the rack on the left was cooked 3-2-1 with foil and the one on the right was not wrapped and smoked for the same 6 hours. The main difference I noticed was more fat rendered out of the 3-2-1 rack. Both were very tender to the bite. The left rack was glazed with Apple-Jalapeno TPJ and the right rack was glazed with Strawberry-Habanero TPJ.
This weekend: stuffed jalapenos, stuffed mushrooms, 2 pork butts, & a brisket.
This brisket was smoked without foil. It's been a long time since I've cooked one this way.
The point cooked to 200*, the middle of the flat read 185*, and the thin end of the flat read 195*.
My wife bought 24 peppers at the store but asked me to stop at the store on the way home to buy some mushrooms. I ended up buying another 12 peppers. (couldn't help myself!)
Used a regular breakfast sausage this time instead of Chorizo and we like them better this way.
This is one of the two. It was 12:30 in the morning and I was too tired to pull it.
A new treat for our family, Bananas Foster. I've never grilled a banana before and it was dark outside, they got a little darker than I expected but they were GOOD.
The caramel sauce called for rum & banana liqueur. As you know I don't have either in the house so I substituted for white grape/peach juice and apple juice then added a little artificial rum flavored extract to make up the difference. Everyone loved the fruity caramel sauce.
OK, so here's what digging a hole in my yard is like! I don't have a garden except for a few potted plants and anything I want to live through a Texas summer must be constantly watered. This isn't a slighted sample, my whole yard and most of my neighbors are the same. We're on a rock shelf. On the plus side, my house doesn't shift with the weather.
It's been a while since I posted pictures so I had a few to upload . Enjoy!

SAINT LEO, Fla. – Saint Leo University baseball coach Russ McNickle is proud to welcome three new student-athletes, all who signed early letters of intent and will be attending Saint Leo starting in the 2012-13 school year.
This year's early signing class consists of three highly accomplished and recognized student-athletes both on and off the diamond. All three are Florida natives and have competed at the highest levels in both high school and travel baseball as they look to bring their experience and winning expectations to Thomas B. Southard Stadium.
"Our coaching staff has done an outstanding job of identifying quality student athletes and quality people to add to our baseball family" said McNickle. "These young men have proven they can compete at a high level while maintaining a high level of academic success."
The November signing class consists of RHP Michael Dunnigan (Tarpon Springs, FL); SS Taylor Perez (Winter Springs, FL); and RHP Christopher Williams (Tampa, FL).
Michael Dunnigan
Tarpon Springs, Fla. | Tarpon Springs HS
Dunnigan was 8-3 last year in route to being voted Second Team All-County and All Bay Area Honorable Mention. He posted and 8-4 overall record, posted a 3.04 ERA and allowed only 12 walks in 61 innings. On the offensive side, he also hit .319 and played a pivotal role in Tarpon Springs' regional run last season.
Coach McNickle's Thoughts -
"Michael is a fantastic addition to this signing class and should have an impact right away on the mound. His ability right now is off the chart and I think he can develop into a dominant pitcher in the Sunshine State Conference."
Taylor Perez
Winter Springs, Fla. | Winter Springs HS
A four year varsity starter at 7A Winter Springs High School, Perez hit .359 his junior year with a .484 slugging percentage. He led the team in doubles and RBI's his junior year as well and was voted 2011 All Seminole County Honorable Mention. Perez played his travel ball with the Orlando Scorpions where he was a three year starter.
Coach McNickle's Thoughts –
"Taylor was a player we identified early during his sophomore year as a kid we wanted to continue to follow and recruit. His athleticism and ability to play the shortstop position right away are a big reason we are thrilled with Taylor's commitment to become a Lion."
Chris Williams
Tampa, Fla. | Steinbrenner HS
Williams, a 6'2" right-hander, was 7-2 overall with a 2.20 ERA, 39 strikeouts and 54 innings for the Steinbrenner Warriors and he played his travel ball with the Florida Hardballers.
Coach McNickle's Thoughts –
"Chris is a kid who has the confidence and athletic ability to have success in the Sunshine State Conference. His maturity and ability to throw 3 pitches for strikes will play a huge factor as he continues to develop into what we feel will be a very special athlete."

since i cannot edit the "pain" speculation page i have decided to open a forum. it is a widely believed that the "Deva path of pain" is so important to pain for two reasons that are not listed.
1: that the deva path is actually the living body of yahiko, this is supported by the gact that nagato has never allowed him to sustain a fatal wound, after having his cloak blown off by naruto six tails it is seen that he hasn't recived any wounds what so ever un-like the animal path who was already badly damaged before jiraya was done with it. since the piercings are chakara recivers it is possible that yahiko cannot control himself and is being manipulated because he didn't want to follow nagatos path.
2: the second idea is that he protects it because it has the most powerful rinnengan, this is supported because his deva path was able to see the chakra around tsunades feet while the naraka path was un-able to see that konohmuru was using a shadow clone —This unsigned comment was made by Tech235 (talk • contribs) on 04:00, 16 March 2009 (UTC).
- Widely believed? By whom? I never even heard of these arguments before. They don't even make much sense.
- All evidence suggests that all of Pain's bodies are corpses. Pain even specifically said that Yahiko is dead. Pain using Yahiko's living body as his main puppet, yet caring enough to try and keep him unharmed is illogical at best.
- There is nothing that suggests that Deva Realm's Rinnegan is in any way stronger than the other Realms' Rinnegan. Your argument holds no ground. Both the Sharingan and Byakugan] should be able to see chakra gathered around someone's feet, yet neither can distinguish Shadow Clonesfrom the original body.

Being curvy is more than appearance…isn't it? You should be comfortable with who you are no matter what shape you are? Growing up I was pretty average. In middle school, my crush told his friend that he didn't like me because I was fat. And in high school, I was told by my doctor that I was the perfect weight for my height. Yet, I thought I was still fat. I look back now and think…What was I thinking?? I guess we set ourselves up for disaster when we sit there and compare ourselves to others. Something I didn't realize until recently. (Yes, it takes this long sometimes.)
Today I am the 'curviest' I have ever been and not in the best of health. So, I've decided to work out and eat healthier to lower my cholesterol and get my curves in order. Does that sound fair? Lol…but I now realize that it doesn't matter what size is on the tag. It doesn't matter what the supermodels can fit it. The only thing that matters to me is that I am healthy and I feel good about myself-inside and out. There you have it, my epiphany for the day.

Machado tallies four hits, but O's lose second straight
Hardy, Wieters hit solo shots; Garcia struggles in shortest outing of year
BALTIMORE -- The Orioles have used effective pitching and timely hitting to earn success throughout the first part of 2013. But they couldn't get much of either on Wednesday.
San Diego banged out 17 hits, the most the Orioles have allowed in a game this season. The Orioles finished with 11 hits themselves, but they wasted a number of scoring chances while the Padres didn't, a big reason San Diego rolled to an 8-4 victory before 32,418 in a matinee at Camden Yards.
This win gave San Diego (18-21) victories in both games of the two-game set, the first time that Baltimore's been swept in a series this season.
Starter Freddy Garcia (0-2) pitched well in his first two games but lasted only 3 2/3 innings this time. He gave up four runs on seven hits and needed 75 pitches to get that far. Troy Patton threw a scoreless eighth, but every other pitcher -- T.J. McFarland (one run, four hits), Tommy Hunter (two runs, three hits and a key error) and Pedro Strop (one run, two hits) -- gave up at least one run.
"[Garcia was] not quite as crisp. He wasn't the only one," Orioles manager Buck Showalter said. "We just didn't pitch well today. It wasn't just Freddy. They hit a lot of balls hard, too. They came in here and swung the bats well. We've got to pitch better. It was certainly a hiccup pitching-wise today."
The Padres were very aggressive and scored runs in five innings and got runners on base in eight of the nine.
Leadoff hitter Everth Cabrera got the game-winning hit in Tuesday's 3-2 win and went 4-for-5 on Wednesday. But the Padres got lots of help from the bottom third of their lineup. Kyle Blanks (batting seventh, 1-for-5, home run, RBI), Alexi Amarista (batting eighth, 3-for-5, home run, two RBIs) and John Baker (batting ninth, 1-for-4, two RBIs) gave the Padres lots of punch.
"Those guys want to be a part of the contribution and today they were," Padres manager Bud Black said. "You have to use your whole roster. Those guys today did a nice job. It takes all 25. It's a good team win."
The Padres finished 4-for-11 with runners in scoring position, but the Orioles (23-17) also had chances. They just couldn't come through the way San Diego did.
The Orioles went 3-for-12 with runners in scoring position. They stranded 10 and twice grounded into inning-ending double plays and left runners in scoring position in four of the nine innings.
They could have made some noise in the first when Matt Wieters came up with the bases loaded and two outs in a scoreless game, but he grounded into a force play to let starter Jason Marquis (5-2) escape.
"We had some chances to score and couldn't quite get it done," said Wieters, who hit a solo homer. "I could have broken the game open in the first and just couldn't quite get the big hit there. But it's going to happen, and we'll have to be ready to go when we come back on Friday."
Manny Machado continued his recent hot streak. He went 4-for-5 with three doubles and improved his average to .343. He moved into first place in the American League with 59 hits, one ahead of Detroit's Miguel Cabrera. But the 20-year old said he's not going to worry about the numbers.
"You've got to play baseball," Machado said. "That's the main thing. We don't think about the stats. Go out there and play baseball and win games. That's the main goal."
The Padres just had too much solid hitting. Baker's two-run single gave San Diego a 2-0 lead in the second before J.J. Hardy's solo homer cut the lead in half later that inning.
The Blanks solo homer helped the Padres to a 4-1 lead in the fourth. Wieters added his solo shot in the bottom half before San Diego broke things open in the sixth and seventh. The Padres got a run when Carlos Quentin's pop fly to short right appeared ready to end the sixth, but second baseman Ryan Flaherty lost it in the sun, and the ball fell, letting one run score.
Amarista got a two-run homer in the seventh, and Cabrera pitched in with an RBI single in the ninth. Adam Jones (RBI single) and Nick Markakis (RBI double) got the other two Orioles runs, but it was too little, too late.

NOVI, Mich. - A Novi businessman is facing charges in connection with a bid-rigging scheme involving Bobby Ferguson.
Federal authorities said Rodney Burrell, owner of R & R Heavy Haulers of Northville, lied to a federal grand jury in 2009.
Burrell was charged with conspiracy to defraud the United States for providing a misleading and incomplete testimony to a federal grand jury. If convicted, he faces up to three years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
Federal agents said Burrell and other companies submitted phony bids to enable Ferguson to win a $12 million contract with Garden View Estates housing project.
The scheme came to light in September when Ferguson, longtime friend to former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, was indicted on charges of fraud, money laundering and obstruction of justice.
Three other people were also charged in the scheme.
Download:Bobby Ferguson Indictment Download:Ferguson Search Warrant Download:Ferguson Search Warrant From Jan. 2009
Ferguson was released on a $10,000 bond under the following conditions: he is not allowed to have any firearms and he must undergo drug testing. He is allowed limited travel but must surrender his passport.
Ferguson faces a statutory maximum penalty of up to 20 years in prison on the most serious charges contained in the indictment and fines of more than $2.5 million.
Kilpatrick is currently serving a prison term for probation violation. He was indicted in federal court in June for additional crimes related to alleged misuse of his campaign funds.

DETROIT - Are you prepared if your child or loved one goes missing?
Not knowing if your loved one is safe is a question no one would ever want to think about. That's why all day Monday on Local 4 The Defenders put together a special event called "Missing in Michigan."
Here are the four things people must have in case someone know missing.
- 1. A recent photo. This helps police know what your child/loved one looks like today.
- 2. YDental records or finger prints. You can get dental records from your dentist. Call your local police station or get your child registered (like at our events today) to get finger prints.
- 3. Know what your child is wearing. Know what your child is wearing sounds simple, but parents need to pay attention ESPECIALLY to the shoes. Kidnappers usually have time to change clothes, but rarely the shoes.
- 4. Know what your child's unique characteristics are. They can be physical like moles or scars as well as personal which are nicknames or favorite jewelry.

As part of my investigation into benefit corporations – a new legal corporate form springing up across the US – I asked early adopters a simple question: "Are you a capitalist?"
It put some of them on the spot. Benefit corporations are set up to serve a "triple bottom line" of social, environmental and economic objectives and their backers don't fit the capitalist stereotype of cigar-chewing plutocrats running smoke-belching industrial behemoths. (Gary Gerber, who runs Californian solar energy company Sun Light & Power, is the first chief executive I've interviewed who apologised for coming to find me in his hybrid Toyota Prius because the two electric cars he uses were unavailable.)
I tend to agree with Christopher Meyer and Julia Kirby, whose book Standing on the Sun points out that capitalism is "only a term for what capitalists tend to believe and do". They suggest that in time "puzzling exceptions to the pursuit [of financial profit maximisation] – corporate social responsibility, venture philanthropy, sustainability – will be recognised to have a logic consistent with capitalism". Which would mean that even contrarian "reluctant businessmen" like Yvon Chouinard, the surfing and mountaineering founder of Patagonia, the biggest benefit corporation, are capitalists. Read more

Among believing Christians, one finds amillennialists, postmillennialists, and premillennialists. Among premillennialists, there are disputes over the relationship between the "rapture" and the "great tribulation." Keep Reading

Handel and seventeenth-century German pietism. Keep Reading

October is going to be a busy month. One of my favorite events that I like to report on is the Annual Bureau County Pheasants Forever Ringneck Hunt.
This is open to the ringnecks who belong to the local chapter of Pheasants Forever. All hunters are asked to register by Oct. 10. If the quota is not filled by then, the club will open it up to other ringnecks from other clubs and then locals who wish to be a ringneck. They must be 12- to 18-years old and have a hunters' safety card.
This is an excellent opportunity for a youngster to hunt live birds over a good hunting dog handled by an experienced hunter. The hunt is again hosted by Hickory Grove Hunt Club, and hunters are asked to be there before 7:30 a.m. on Oct. 20 for instructions. When the hunt is over, the club will run them into Tilly's for lunch.
To register for the hunt, you should call Steve Wright at 815-408-1276 or Eric Paull at 815-646-4844. They will be able to give you all the info you need.
October will also be the annual Duck's Unlimited Banquet to be held at the Met starting at 5:30 p.m. Oct. 27. Now, this year is the 75th anniversary of D.U. and I expect things to be upgraded as far as the quality of the raffle items and auction items.
The gun of the year is an outstanding firearm. It is a Browning Maxus that has been elaborately etched and decorated to celebrate the 75th anniversary.
Another unique firearm will be the 45 cal/410. I don't know if you call it a rifle or a shotgun, but it has been a popular item before. A Savage .17 cal rifle will also be part of the auction.
D.U. has always sponsored a great banquet so get you tickets early. Tickets and info can be obtained by calling Erik Ellberg 815-876-6659 or Brett Brown 815-303-0884.
Youth hunt for duck hunters will be Oct. 27, also. The hunt will be from 7 a.m. to noon at the Princeton Game and Fish Club.
The PHS Sportsman's Club will participate in an archery shoot and a trap shoot within the next two weeks. They are looking forward to that
Deer archery opens up Oct. 1. Make sure you have your license and proper tags.
I have been notified that the upcoming Walmart fishing tournament has been cancelled.

text: I've been cleaning out my documents lately, and I was hoping to get rid of some Pokémon files that I have had for quite some time now. Now, I have 300+ files not yet uploaded to the wiki, such as Rumble sprites (Kanto and Johto Pokémon sprites) and the new PokéPark dialog icons (100+). I would upload them immediately, however, since some use RC, RC will definitely be clogged. Now the question is, how many should I upload per day, or if I should upload all of them altogether. At the moment, I'm thinking about uploading 50 files per day/every 6 hours. Bermuda • Triangle • 19:05,4/28/2012

Aug 27: PIJIP Reacts to Apple v. Samsung Verdict
On August 27, 2012, American University Washington College of Law Program on Information Justice and Intellectual Property held an event on the Apple-Samsung verdict and litigation.
Jorge Contreras, who researches and teaches on patent licensing and is a frequent public commenter on the case, discussed Apple's utility patent claims. Jonas Anderson, who teaches patent law and has litigated design patent cases, discussed Apple's design patent claims. And Christine Farley, a scholar and teacher of U.S. and international trademark law, discussed Apple's trade dress claims.
On August 25 Apple won a stunning victory in its long-running patent battle with Samsung. A jury in San Jose, California decided for Apple on nearly all counts, finding Samsung liable for willfully infringing Apple's patents covering the design of its iPhone and iPad products, as well as features like "tap to zoom" and other finger-sliding commands. Samsung was unsuccessful in asserting its own patents, mostly covering wireless telecommunications standards, against Apple. The jury assessed more than $1 billion in damages against Samsung, an amount that could be further increased by the judge. Even more critically, a hearing has been set for Sept. 20 to determine whether the court will issue an injunction preventing the sale of Samsung's products in the US.
PIJIP faculty will lead an informal discussion of the decision and its implications for intellectual property law and litigation as well as for technology markets. Bring your own smart phone/tablet.
For substantive press inquiries about the issues in the case, contact Jorge Contreras (firstname.lastname@example.com 314-566-6695)

An unusual bike is all it takes to convert festival-goers to cyclists
CTC's Cycling Champions Project asked Cyclone Works to bring along their fun and beautiful bikes, built in Leicester - and people of all ages loved the range of machines.
There were smiles evoked from the ingenuity of design, the challenge of riding, and the pleasure of watching fruit become a smoothie: the faster you pedal, the faster you get your treat!
More than 500 people rode the bikes (or tried to). I was disappointed I didn't have time for a ride, but I did receive requests for cycle training to gain comfort in traffic, from families who were inspired to take up cycling after the weekend.
We also asked Ebike, a new shop selling only electric bikes, to offer test rides and talk to people about the advantages of electric assist.
As I've always been attached to my human-powered vehicle (being human powered), I was a bit sceptical. I was wrong. I loved them; everyone loved them!
They were quiet, they were fast - in fact, we gave up on the test rides in crowds... and for many people, they offered the option of a commute to work without breaking a sweat. One person was so taken with the bikes, he went over to the shop later in the day to have a ride and a longer conversation.
The shop will be officially opened by the city Mayor on Saturday 29 June.
Hurray for the mobile bike provided by Leicester City Council – what a great way to encourage people to arrive by bike!

Megan Fox apparently has an insatiable hunger for doin' it. She recently told FHM that she's obsessed with sex and doesn't really see a point in doing anything else. Here's the exact quote via Hollyscoop.com:
"I have the libido of a teenage boy. I'd rather have sex all the time than leave the house."
Excuse me, my penis seems to have rocketed off my body and blasted into orbit. *picks up phone* Hello? NASA? Uh huh, the wiener again. I'll take my usual shuttle. Listen, while we're up there can you can get me some numbers on possibly, I dunno, firing a bazooka at Brian Austin Green's face. I'm actually not particular as to where it lands but I'd prefer his last words be "Megan, do the guy who writes The Superficial." I'd crunch the numbers myself but my algebra's a bit rusty. You'll do it? Fantastic. You guys truly are "the right stuff." Oh, man, get it? Like the movie? Hello? Shit…
Special thanks to Andrew for alerting me to the greatest news in the history of, uh, news-alism.
