AN afternoon of flute and piano music spanning more than 200 years will feature a world premiere.
Malvern-based composer Derek Smith wrote Winter's Ending to convey the coldness of winter, the sounds of cracking ice and trickling melt water followed by the warmth of spring and it will be performed for the first time at the Lion Ballroom, Leominster, on Sunday, March 9.
Mr Smith studied conducting under Norman Del Mar and composition under Sir Malcolm Arnold, and since his retirement from an academic career he has had time and energy to further develop his gift for composition and arrangement.
As a composer, he entered the BBC Music Magazine's Henschel String Quartet competition in 2009 and was awarded first prize for his composition of Carolingua - a work for string quartet and four soprano voices which was performed at Kings Place, London.
Michael Blackmore and Sarah Newbold will perform on piano and flute respectively and the programme will also include Beethoven's Serenade Op 41, Donizetti's Sonata for flute and piano, works by Dutilleux and Taktakishvili, Ravel's Pavane pour une infante défunte for solo piano and short piece by Ian Clarke.
The concert starts at 3pm and tickets are £12 or £6 for students.
For more information and tickets, call Gill's Gifts in Leominster on 01568 611588 or go to orpheus-events.com.

The controversial lawyer Nabeeh Al Wahesh said that he is representing several Egyptian families that have filed lawsuits against the Egyptian superstar
Tamer Hosny to try and ban him from performing in children's schools. The parents were furious after discovering their daughters were harassed at concerts Tamer held at their schools.
Tamer denied the accusations and described the lawsuit as a personal attack.Al Wahesh said he has requested the Egyptian education minister interfere to prevent Tamer from performing in schools.
Tamer said that young fans can harass one another in many places, asserting that the incidents are unrelated to his performances. People that spread such rumors aim to make him look bad and are jealous of his success, said Tamer.

JACK BROOKS says his personal performance in last year's LV= County Championship clash with Durham at Scarborough still irritates him - and he wants to right a wrong at Headingley today.
The Yorkshire fast bowler, the joint leading wicket-taker in this summer's division one with 42, returned 1-111 from 27 overs and 0-13 from two last August as Durham won a match which put them on course for the title.
Both sides are in title contention again this year. Yorkshire are eight points behind leaders Nottinghamshire with a game in hand and Durham are 37 behind with a couple of games in hand.
"I personally was disappointed with my performance at Scarborough last year," admitted the 30-year-old, who is back after being rested from last week's Twenty20 matches.
"It was the big game of the season, and I didn't really feel I turned up in it. It would be nice for me to turn up in this game and show what I'm capable of.
"It would be nice to just win the game to be honest. It doesn't matter who we're playing, we're going to have to win games to win the Championship. We're really looking forward to it.
"They have won two on the bounce. They're champions for a reason at the end of the day, and they're always going to be difficult to beat no matter when you play them. The game at Scarborough hurt us a lot last year, so we'll be aiming to try and right a few wrongs.
"We're in good form and so are they. It should make for a decent game of cricket."
A number of Yorkshire players have spoken in the last fortnight or so about learning from last year's mistakes. Some have admitted to getting complacent in the final stages of the season as the title was in their sights.
But Brooks added: "Maybe last year we might have got a little bit carried away, particularly with the 150th. But I know this year that's certainly not going to happen. The lads are just really focused both on and off the field."
Meanwhile, Aaron Finch smashed a brilliant 181 not out in Saturday's MCC Bicentenary Celebration match at Lord's. He guided the MCC to a successful chase of 294 against the Rest of the World.
Yorkshire squad (v Durham): Gale (capt), Bairstow (wkt), Bresnan, Brooks, Finch, Leaning, Lees, Lyth, Patterson, Pyrah, Rashid, Sidebottom.

A Family History at AU
For Talia Rosen, history comes alive in the stories of people, their journeys, and the decisions they made both large and small. The Long Grove, Illinois, freshman, who intends to major in history, comes to American University from a legacy of AU students. Her mother, Judy Millman Rosen, graduated from AU with a degree in Jewish studies as one of the first students of Pamela Nadell, now chair of the Department of History and director of the AU Jewish Studies Program. "My mom always spoke so highly of her time at AU," says Rosen. "It was definitely on my radar when I began looking for colleges." Rosen says she loved AU's historical location in DC and its calm and close-knit campus. "I feel like I have all of the benefits of the city," says Rosen. "But there is also a campus and such a great community." Rosen first developed her interest in history while taking history courses in high school. "My [history] teachers were so passionate about what they taught. They really loved what they were doing," she says. "It didn't feel like I was just learning to pass a test or get a grade. I really felt like what I was learning was important." The passion she developed for history grew even stronger as Rosen began to look beneath the surface of historical events to understand the motivations of the figures she spent so much time reading about.
"I started looking into psychology and the factors that motivated people to act the way they did," says Rosen. "I think people are fascinating, and looking at the decisions they made and how they made them can help us understand history in a completely different way." The short time Rosen has spent at AU has taught her a great deal about the different types of people who come to the university. "I've met people from all over the world," she says. "We all come here to do different things, but everyone is so driven and passionate about what they do that it makes a really great community." Nadell, who has kept in touch with the Rosen family since Judy Millman Rosen's graduation, believes the size of the AU Jewish Studies Program and the Department of History plays a large role in these units' strengths. "The Jewish Studies Program has always had a small number of majors," says Nadell. "That gives our faculty the opportunity to really get to know our students." Judy Millman Rosen now serves as Midwest regional director for ORT America, an organization dedicated to promoting Jewish education around the world. Talia Rosen would eventually like to become a professor of American history, writing books like those of her role models, Walter Isaacson and David McCullough. "I want to make history come alive for people," says Rosen. "Sometimes history books can be confusing or hard to follow, but then you pick one up from an author who truly loves history and you remember why you love it too."

Plan and book your holiday with British Airways, online or by phone. Enjoy all these great benefits:
St. Moritz is the most famous ski destination in Switzerland. This exclusive, world-renowned resort has a unique and distinct character. As well as great skiing and snowboarding for the intermediate and advanced, St. Moritz offers eccentric quirks like polo, golf and cricket on the frozen lake at the bottom of the valley.
Cross-country skiers are accompanied by beautiful views of the lake. The main slopes are nearby Corviglia and Corvatsch, a short bus-ride or drive away. Several other skiing areas are accessible by car, and renting one is recommended in St. Moritz. The famous Cresta Run, a head-first toboggan run from St. Moritz to Celerina, is a must-do for the brave and a must-see for everyone else. Local après ski makes St. Moritz a stylish resort popular with the chic and the fashionable - a great place to visit, and a great place to be seen.
St Moritz is 200km (approximately 2 hours 45 minutes transfer) from Zurich airport.
St Moritz is 170 km (approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes transfer) from Milan airport.

Skiing and snowboarding in St. Moritz starts at Salastrains or Corviglia. Celerina also has nice, broad nursery slopes at village level. There are ski schools in St. Moritz and Suvretta, whilst snowboarders can take lessons at The Wave - a dedicated snowboarding school.
Intermediates will thoroughly enjoy St. Moritz. Corviglia and Cervatsch offer miles of fast cruising. The Hahnensee run is worth particular attention for its six kilometre length and 900 metre vertical. St. Moritz's slopes here are perfect for fast and fun freeriding.
St. Moritz has a handful of black pistes scattered across the slopes. Most advanced skiers and snowboarders will want to head off-piste to stretch themselves, though. Tough terrain can be found atop Piz Nair and Corvatsch, though the best way to find great off-piste here is to hire a guide.
St. Moritz Ski School has a childcare programme for those aged 4 to 12 years. In addition, the Schweizerhof and Badrutt Palace hotels both offer non-skiing nurseries for children. St. Moritz is best suited to families with non-skiing children in their party.
St. Moritz is a glamorous ski resort. People come here to be seen, and the apres ski atmosphere is always a combination of glitzy, chic and vibrant. For a special evening, top restaurants such as Jöhri's Talvo at Champfèr and Bumanns Chesa Pirani in La Punt offer sumptuous food in stylish surroundings. There are also plenty of low-key restaurants in St. Moritz, including the beautiful views and unpretentious food at Muottas Muragl. Bars and nightclubs play host to a variety of different age groups in St. Moritz. Bobby's Pub and Stübli attract a young crowd. Nearby, Western-themed, Muli offers live music, as does the Piano bar - albeit in more chic surroundings. Several nightclubs are open into the small hours. Two of the most popular are Vivai and King's, the latter requires you to wear a jacket and tie.

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- The stakes could not be higher for Research In Motion ( RIMM) as it prepares to unveil its long-awaited BlackBerry 10 operating system early next year. TheStreet got a sneak peek of BlackBerry 10 running on a prototype of one of RIM's new devices this week, and was quietly impressed with the new OS. The user interface, particularly the BlackBerry Flow feature, which allows navigation across open applications, seemed a little complicated at first, but I quickly learned how to control the touchscreen with a single gesture. Soon, I was skimming between applications with ease and using the Active Frames feature to select and crisply minimize apps. BlackBerry Hub, which consolidates messages, feeds and notification events, looks an effective way to manage key information on the device, again via a single gesture. BlackBerry 10 also offers tight integration with social networks such as Facebook ( FB) and Twitter, enabling users to update their status or tweet without leaving the Hub section of the OS. A sophisticated operating system, clearly geared towards tech-savvy gadget users, BlackBerry 10 is designed "for an audience that enjoys multi-tasking," according to RIM. One of the best parts of the OS is the new BlackBerry Keyboard, a touchscreen version of the physical keyboard found on the company's existing devices. The keyboard offers impressive next word prediction, letting users "flick" words to the screen with a single gesture, something which will be useful for one-handed typing. Impressively, Keyboard can both auto correct and predict in three languages -- English, French and Spanish. Overall, despite my initial misgivings, BlackBerry Keyboard was both easy to use and aesthetically pleasing. In a clear nod towards the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) phenomenon, whereby workers hook their own smartphones (often Apple ( AAPL) iPhones) up to corporate networks, RIM has built a feature called Balance into BlackBerry 10. This separates work and consumer applications, keeping corporate and personal data secure in separate partitions within the OS. RIM also launched on Thursday its BlackBerry 10 Ready Program, which aims to prepare enterprise customers for the operating system's arrival. While I played with a "close to final" version of the BlackBerry 10 software, the hardware it ran on was still in prototype mode, according to RIM. Nonetheless, with BlackBerry 10's emphasis on gestures and the current trend for larger phone screens, I would not be surprised if the prototype's 4.2-inch diagonal display appears on the final version of the device. By way of comparison, Apple's new iPhone 5 has a 4-inch display.

Despite the allusion to the evil galactic empire, I am actually a big fan of Microsoft.Planet Telex does much of its work using ASP.NET, and recently invested in a new Surface computer.That said, IE6 is an albatross around the neck of the Internet, and I loathe both Exchange Server and Outlook.But those are old Microsoft technologies anyway, let's look at what Microsoft is doing right now, and why Google should be worried.
This week Google announced that it is developing Chrome OS, a lightweight Linux based operating system aimed primarily at the netbook market.Predictably, stories emerge about how Google is taking aim at Microsoft.Hearing the description of Chrome OS, it seems more in direct competition with Ubuntu than Windows, not to mention the fact that it is years away from any sort of market adoption.We have seen how slowly Android has taken to enter the marketplace, and even Eric Schmidt is still using a BlackBerry.So Chrome OS represents a minor threat that is years away.
Microsoft on the other hand,is a huge threat to Google's search dominance right now.While I still use Google (mostly because Chrome is my browser of choice),I have examined Bing, Microsoft's new search engine, and have followed the reviews closely.The verdict is that Microsoft has a serious search offering that can compete with Google.While Bing is still not quite as accurate as Google is in overall search, it offers an enhanced user interface that many users are starting to appreciate.Combine that with the fact that many are simply interested to try something new after years of using Google.Even Kevin Rose, who has always been a Microsoft detractor, changed his default search to Bing on Diggnation at the urging of his co-host Alex Albrecht just to "give it a chance."Clearly there is some appetite for a Google alternative.
When it comes to Bing adoption, let's not forget the fact that Internet Explorer accounts for about 40% of browser marketshare (Firefox overtook them as the most used browser in January of this year).Internet Explorer will default to MSN, which will default to using Bing.Consequently, Bing will take a significant chunk of Google's search traffic.
Turning back to operating systems, it should be mentioned that Windows 7 has been getting glowing reviews, even from some Apple fans.Priced at $50, I expect this to be the next "Windows XP" in terms of staying power in the marketplace.It should be mentioned that Apple's Snow Leopard OS will be priced as an upgrade at only $29, and has also been well received.With these polished, robust operating systems selling so cheap, it seems that there is less opportunity for Ubuntu and Chrome OS to gain a market foothold.It is my sense that Windows will continue to be the dominant OS for years to come.
One reason that Windows will continue to thrive is Microsoft's .Net framework.In the last few years Microsoft has really delivered to the development community.Their language, C#, is among the most popular programming languages in the world, and in the last 2 versions, Microsoft has packed in tons of geeky stuff that developers love.Things like lambda expressions, LINQ, generics and duck typing.They have created Windows Communication Foundation, a truly excellent framework for building services of all kinds.Windows Presentation Foundation is a revolutionary step in Windows application development.Then there is ASP.NET MVC, a new flavor of ASP.NET with a development paradigm similar to Ruby on Rails.Every web developer I know who has used it absolutely loves ASP.NET MVC.Given time, I suspect it will overtake ASP.NET web forms development. With every year that passes, it becomes more and more enjoyable and rewarding to develop on the platforms that Microsoft provides.This means people will continue to write a lot of software for Microsoft platforms, which increases the overall values of the platforms.
It is certainly true that Microsoft is often a "Johnny come lately" when it comes to their offerings.Windows itself was ripped off from Xerox and Apple.Internet Explorer ripped off Netscape.Zune ripped off iPod.Bing ripped off Google.And soon, project Azure will rip off Amazon's EC2.Someone at Microsoft must have read The Innovator's Dilemma.Microsoft have long since realized that they don't need to be the first to do something, they need to sit back, see what works, copy it, and do it really, really well.It is hit or miss process.Even with IE8, I consider Internet Explorer the most inferior internet browser out there.As I've stated, I loathe Outlook (in fact, my Mom just called me telling me she has a virus- I suspect that it exploited Outlook to get on her system).
In recent months however, I've loved what Microsoft has been doing.Some of it, like Bing and Azure, is reactionary, but not all.Microsoft has been the first to offer a large multi-touch device to the marketplace: the Microsoft Surface computer.Planet Telex has bought one and we love playing with it, as does just about everyone I show it too.My mom has called it "really cool" and I believe my dad called it "magic"- neither one cares much for computers in general.
Cool as they are, they aren't ready for the home consumer market yet.But there is a Microsoft made piece of hardware that is already in millions of households throughout the world: the Xbox 360.An article on the successes at Microsoft just wouldn't be complete without mentioning the most popular console on the market today.If you don't have a modern console, like a PS3 or an Xbox 360, you might be surprised to hear that they are for far more than simply playing video games.They offer video-on-demand and can integrate with a number of web technologies, like Netflix, Hulu, Facebook and Twitter. Quite honestly, an Xbox 360 with an internet connection can provide all the entertainment options one could want.Comcast, Dish Network, and DirecTV should be concerned.
As we approach the end of a decade, we can look back and see the big winners have been Apple, Google, and Amazon.But the 1990's went to Microsoft, and they have coasted on their immense success then for most of the last 10 years.But the thing is, the people at Microsoft aren't dumb- far from it. And they have thought a lot about where the world is going in the years to come.They have studied their enemies, listened to their consumers, and taken action.In short, Microsoft has found its second wind. The big winner of the next decade is up for grabs, and Microsoft might still have what it takes to come out on top.However I suspect that it won't be too long before I find myself writing a follow up post: "Return of the Google."

What are your methods of tweaking new discs?
I'm not talking about illegal disc manipulation, just what you do to speed up the breaking in time.
anyone tried leaving discs in sunlight or soaking them in water (or any chemicals)? running over them with their car? bending repeadedly? ect.
i have thrown a CE dragon into a wall repeadedly to break it in. but now it flies like a paper plate (way understable).
I have an elite XS that i found, it is weathered pretty well, and it flies great.
How do you break in new discs, especially the priemium plastics?

I want to be able to show and hide my menu like on this site: http://etchapps.com/
Anyone know how to do this?
thanks in rewards.
simple animate() on the width of the menu div and use CSS3 rotate to turn the box.
Not tested but should give you a starting block.
//menu btn is the trigger
$("#menu_btn").click(function() {
$('.menu_div').animate({width: 'toggle'}, 500,
function() {
// Animation complete.
Thanks that got me started=) But atm it looks like this, check out the fiddle:
It animates the wrong way and as u can see the menu items "drop down under each other" at the end of the animation. And the trigger stays rotated and doesnt rotate back.
I would be very grateful if you or someone else could fix this for me as im a total noob to javascript.
thanks in advance
added overflow: hidden and some height to the parent div so now it looks like this: http://jsfiddle.net/Ymu8T/21/
But still animating to the left and i the trigger is not rotating more then the first time its clicked.
I have updated your fiddle.....
I float the ul li left now and now i got some issue with the menu jumping like 30px to the right before the animation, u know why?
Now i think i got pretty much what i want ... except that i want to have the trigger on the other side, and to the animation to animate the other way, how do i do that?
Try http://jsfiddle.net/Ymu8T/47/
Thanks now its working as i want it to!
Now on the other hand i would like to customize a bit more, i want the menu to "collapse" into the trigger on a certain page width (767px) , so that on 767px and under it only shows the menu when clicked.

A judge has delayed sentencing for a day for a California professor who set a series of fires and sent private emails describing a plan to attack his son's high school after the teen killed himself.
Judge Gregg L. Prickett says he'll sentence 49-year-old Rainer Reinscheid on Thursday after reviewing notes from more than four hours of statements from victims, supporters and lawyers.
The University of California, Irvine pharmaceutical sciences professor faces three to 18 years in prison. He pleaded guilty last month to six counts of arson, three counts of attempted arson and resisting or obstructing an officer.
Reinscheid has apologized in court, saying he lost himself after his 14-year-old son hanged himself last year after being disciplined by a school administrator for stealing.
THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.
A California professor facing up to 18 years in prison for setting a series of fires after his son killed himself is pleading for leniency, saying he was overwhelmed with grief and did things he would not normally do.
Rainer Reinscheid apologized for his actions Tuesday during a nearly three-hour sentencing hearing that included speeches from his friends and colleagues, as well as school officials who said the fires - and threats written in Reinscheid's emails - terrorized them.
The hearing is set to resume Wednesday afternoon.
Reinscheid, a pharmaceutical sciences professor at the University of California, Irvine, whose private emails described graphic plans to attack his late son's high school and kill students, told the court that the irrational thoughts that drove his behavior in the weeks after his 14-year-old son committed suicide have disappeared.
Now, Reinscheid said he wants to return to his native Germany and find work to support his family and care for his younger child, acknowledging his academic career is over.
Reinscheid, 49, is on unpaid leave from UC Irvine.
"I lost my son, and then I lost myself," Reinscheid told the court. "Now, I am asking you, your honor, and many other people, to forgive me and show mercy."
Reinscheid faces a prison sentence that could range from three to 18 years after he pleaded guilty last month to six counts of arson, three counts of attempted arson, and resisting or obstructing an officer.
Colleagues and friends described Reinscheid as a brilliant scientist, a dedicated researcher, a trustworthy friend and devoted and doting father who was distraught after his son's death. The teen hanged himself with a belt in an Irvine park in March 2012 after he was disciplined by an administrator at University High School for allegedly stealing from the school store.
School officials and teachers, however, said the series of fires Reinscheid set - and the emails that described Reinscheid's plan to buy machine guns, shoot students, commit sexual assaults and burn the school before killing himself - drove people in the 2,800-member campus to live in fear.
"That tragedy (his son's death) cannot serve as justification for terrorizing a school community and staff members who have dedicated their lives to helping others," Irvine Unified Superintendent Terry L. Walker wrote in a statement read aloud to the court by a fellow administrator.
No charges were filed directly related to the emails. Reinscheid's wife, Wendy, told the court she and her husband were encouraged to write down their thoughts by a therapist to help them get out negative feelings after the boy died.
But prosecutor Andrew Katz told the court these writings can't be brushed off as mere musings. He noted they came after two high school students kept a journal chronicling their plans to attack Columbine High School, and after a shooter told a therapist about his violent thoughts and later sprayed gunfire on patrons at a movie theater in Aurora, Colo.
Reinscheid has worked at UC Irvine for about a dozen years. His research included studying molecular pharmacology and psychiatric disorders, including studies of schizophrenia, stress, emotional behavior and sleep.

Montero already likes what he's seeing from Bell
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- It was just an eight-minute session throwing to hitters, a first this spring, but D-backs catcher Miguel Montero was impressed with what he saw from reliever Heath Bell on Sunday.
"He looked good, he located pretty good," Montero said. "For the first day, he looked like he was ready for game time. His location, fastball got some good explosion coming out of the hand and he located pretty good, man. He was game ready pretty much."
"It was good, ironed a couple of kinks out, a couple of things I have to work on, but overall it was good," Bell said of the session. "I think every time you face hitters for the first time, you get a little geared up especially [because] you don't want to hit your own players, so you're just a little tentative going inside. Overall I think I made some pretty good pitches."
Bell is looking to rebound from a nightmarish 2012 season with the Marlins when he posted a 5.09 ERA and feuded with manager Ozzie Guillen. He landed in Arizona as part of a three-team deal involving the Marlins, D-backs and A's last October.
"I started earlier training this year, but that's because I [stunk] last year and I really wanted to be ready to play this year," Bell said.
Bell, who is slated to pitch for Team USA in the World Baseball Classic this month, seems to be enjoying his move to the desert.
"I had some things, maybe some demons or issues last year," He said. "So be it. This is a new year, a new team, it's a new manager, new pitching coaches, new teammates. Everything is brand new, even the facility is brand new. I feel like so much at home and I don't really know everybody. These guys are unbelievably great about having fun, being serious, getting out of your comfort zone."

November 2016
Overview On the morning of March 13, 2015, an over-height garbage truck collided with the Interstate 90 overpass over Front Street in Issaquah. The collision left a large hole in the overpass and damaged one of the bridge girders.WSDOT bridge engineers examined the structure and determined that it did not pose a safety risk to drivers, though WSDOT closed the right shoulder of eastbound I-90 on the overpass until repairs are completed.Starting in May 2016, crews will replace the damaged girder on the overpass.
Why is WSDOT
repairing the I-90 overpass above Front Street?
While WSDOT bridge engineers found the bridge to be safe for traffic, the overpass would eventually deteriorate to a state where it would be unsafe for vehicles to go on or under the bridge. Replacing the 114-foot girder strengthens the overpass and eliminated a visual distraction to drivers in Issaquah.What can drivers expect?This work required nightly lane closures and lane shifting on eastbound I-90 as well as lane closures on Front Street.There were three full overnight closures of Front Street in both directions while workers removed the old girder and set the new girder. Pedestrians and bicyclists were detoured during the full Front Street closures.
The End Result
A new girder on eastbound I-90 to preserve the safety and integrity of the overpass that carries the interstate over Front Street.
Project Benefits
Safety - Replacing the damaged girder restored the overpass to its pre-collision condition and removed a visual distraction for drivers.
What is the project timeline?
November 2015 - The contract was awarded to Massana Construction, Inc.May 2016 - Construction began.August 2 - Final restriping on I-90 completed and eastbound traffic restored to normal lanes.
Financial Information
Project signage will reflect the cost of construction engineering, project bid award and sales tax.

Arroyo's stiff back feeling better
PHOENIX -- The news on veteran starter Bronson Arroyo was good Friday, although the conclusion of this mid-spring episode of back stiffness won't be known for sure for a couple of weeks.
D-backs manager Kirk Gibson said Arroyo was feeling much better when he arrived at the team's facility Friday morning, and the skipper could see that just by looking at him.
"You can tell he knows it feels better just by his attitude and the way he's carrying himself around," Gibson said.
Whether that means Arroyo, who has yet to be placed on the disabled list in his 14 years in the Majors, will start the season healthy and part of the rotation to begin the season remains an unanswered question for Gibson.
"We're not thinking about that," Gibson said. "We're just thinking about getting him back into throwing, getting him a bullpen and building up from there and see how he's progressing."
At least he's headed in the right direction. For his part, D-backs general manager Kevin Towers is taking the "positive approach" and thinking that Arroyo will be ready to start the season as part of the active roster.
"I mean, he's never been on the DL, so I don't anticipate him being on the DL," Towers said. "So he'll either start one of the games against the Giants or the first game against Colorado. I think a lot will depend on how our rotation falls, how he's feeling, what his pitch count is up to. I think he's certainly got enough time, even if it's for the Colorado series, to get two or three outings and get close to 75 pitches."

EDITOR'S NOTE: Bayer CropScience released an official statement about the methodology and conclusions of a Harvard University study that claims a link between the active ingredient imidacloprid (found in certain Bayer insecticides) and honey bee colony collapse. Just as the company did last week pertaining to two European bee studies and neonicotinoid insecticides, it contends the study was conducted outside of appropriate scientific protocol and delivers too high a dose of insecticide compared to real-life field situations. The Bayer Cropscience official statement is below:
Bayer CropScience has reviewed the study for publication in the June issue of the Bulletin of Insectology regarding imidacloprid's supposed impact on honey bee colony health. The study is factually inaccurate and is seriously flawed, both in its methodology and conclusions.
Although the study claims to have established a link between imidacloprid and bee colony collapse, the symptoms observed in the study bees are not consistent with, or even remotely similar to, those of Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD). As such, the authors' claims that their study explains the causes of CCD are spectacularly incorrect.
Additionally, the authors assume erroneously that the majority of corn grown in the United States has been treated with imidacloprid. In actuality, over the past 8 years, the annual percentage of total corn acres in the U.S. treated with imidacloprid has been less than half a percent. Thus, the suggestion that imidacloprid is affecting honey bee health via residue found on corn or through corn products is also grossly inaccurate.
The study's additional flaws include the following:
- The imidacloprid concentrations selected for testing were NOT based on measured residues in high fructose corn syrup (HFCS), but on a series of implausible and unsubstantiated assumptions.
- The study bees were fed HFCS spiked with different levels of imidacloprid that were far above real-world exposure levels.
- In separate research, analysis from actual field grown corn samples, have shown no detectable imidacloprid residues in HFCS.
- The study lacked replication of test colonies within apiaries and the total number of colonies per treatment group were too few to allow a meaningful statistical analysis of colony survival.
- The authors ignored the scientific consensus that bee health is impaired by multiple factors, including inadequate diet, pests and parasites such as the varroa mite, microbial diseases, mismanaged colonies, and loss of genetic diversity.
Imidacloprid and neonicotinoid insecticides generally, remain safe and effective management tools to control a wide range of destructive insect pests. Throughout the many years that imidacloprid has been commercially available and used, there has been no credible scientific evidence demonstrating a link between this active ingredient – or other neonicotinoids – and increases in honey bee colony losses and declining honey bee colony health. This latest study is no exception.
All new bee research involving bee health is welcome and great care should be taken to avoid sweeping, unsupportable conclusions based on artificial and unrealistic study parameters that are wildly inconsistent with actual field conditions and insecticide use.
Bayer is committed to bee health and has been actively involved in finding solutions to improve honey bee health for more than 25 years. As a company dedicated to crop protection, Bayer is also committed to environmental stewardship and sustainable agricultural practices, including the protection of beneficial insects such as honey bees.

Merengue music latest addition to Rays' clubhouse
ST. PETERSBURG -- After seeing a steady parade of acts -- from a disc jockey, magician, penguin and cockatoo, in the Rays' clubhouse -- Joel Peralta took a stand for the Dominican Republic contingent.
The Rays reliever teased: "If [manager Joe] Maddon doesn't do something for us pretty soon, the Dominicans are walking."
The day Peralta sought came Tuesday when players arriving to the clubhouse found a band known as Sol Caribe playing merengue music and plantains hung above the lockers.
Some players enjoyed the music more than others, as Peralta decided to enlist as his dance partner Elisabeth Rodriguez, the band's drummer. He then proceeded to put on a dance clinic.
Afterwards, Peralta received an ovation from those watching.
The smiling Peralta downplayed how well he can dance by noting, "That's our culture."
"You learn from watching people doing it. ... I've been dancing like this since I was a kid," Peralta said. "It's pretty normal for a Dominican to dance to merengue."
The original intent of the clubhouse entertainment was to loosen up the players. Now they are used to having some kind of show when they get to the ballpark.
"It's just one of those things that we do here in Tampa," David Price said. "You probably don't see it a whole lot of other places, not at a time like right now, not during the season. But we've had that type of thing happen a couple times, and we all enjoy it. It just lightens the mood, and we all appreciate it."
Price wasn't totally out to lunch in regard to understanding Tuesday's lyrics, either.
"I was Spanish 2 student of the year in high school when I was a sophomore, so I can translate most of that -- 'yo soy' and stuff," Price said.
When asked about what kind of music should be played next in the clubhouse, he joked: "Spice Girls."

TAHOE CITY, Calif. — Authorities are offering a $1,000 reward for information regarding three commercial burglaries that occurred late last week in Tahoe City.
According to the Placer County Sheriff's Office, burglars broke out windows at three businesses at Cobblestone Mall, at 495 North Lake Blvd. in downtown, either late Thursday night or early Friday morning.
An unknown number of burglars entered Tahoe Rug Gallery and Kalifornia Jean Bar, while Bluestone Jewelry showed signs of an attempted entry, according to a PCSO press release, and "some merchandise" was taken.
Anyone with information should call PCSO at 530-581.6321 or Placer County Crime Stoppers at 800-581-6321.

Improving Adrianza about to see time at second
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- The most intriguing aspect of the Giants' lineup that was rained out of Saturday's exhibition matchup against the Chicago Cubs was the presence of Ehire Adrianza at second base.
Adrianza's appearance at second base was inevitable, and he could start there as early as Sunday against Arizona. Competing against Tony Abreu and Nick Noonan for a backup infield spot, Adrianza, who has played second base just once in eight Minor League seasons, must prove he can handle the position adequately to have a chance to win a utility role.
Adrianza has demonstrated excellent range and sure hands with his career-long performance at shortstop. This spring, the 24-year-old rookie has been more assertive at the plate. The switch-hitting Adrianza lined a three-run homer in Wednesday's Cactus League opener against Oakland, then added a triple in Friday's split-squad victory over Milwaukee.
"For me, he's one of the most improved players in our camp," hitting coach Hensley Meulens said. "We haven't really done anything with him. He's just growing and maturing, he's playing more and gaining confidence. It's good to see that he's able to turn on balls and drive them, not be a Punch-and-Judy hitter like he used to be."

I might have to change my avatar.
That's it.
12 weeks. Puts him on pace to return for the last month of the season.
**** me.
Well crap....
3 more months of this. We may be in a little trouble.
It's a good thing the East sucks.
"I had to take her down like Chris Brown."
-Lance Stephenson
Now we get to see how this team learns and grows without Danny.
how is next year's draft?
Some kind of positive to this: The rest of the team improves, and we get a higher draft pick this off season.
Big Negative: This was supposed to be the season we won the fans back...
"We've got to be very clear about this. We don't want our players hanging around with murderers," said Larry Bird, Pacers president.
Sad, all of us were so excited coming into this season.
DG for 3
Someone should probably update the thread title to reflect that Danny is out for three months. It's vague right now.
How does Knee Pain he can play through lead to being out 3 months?
Danny 3P% last 4 seasons:
Current Pacers 3P%
Highest 3P% of the 4 guys taking at least 3.5 per game - PG with 33%.
So now we have to count on Lance taking 5 a game at 44% to save the day? Teams are literally going to do the Bobcats lane stuff zone every single night. Without shooters this team is in huge trouble.
I wasn't worried till I saw the last 2 games and how many wide open jumpers guys were missing. This is what ended up biting the 61 win team, the Pistons just packed down on JO, Ron and Al going to the post/lane and other than Reggie there was no one to keep them honest.
Either Roy needs to get even tougher or someone needs to start making those outside shots.
OMG it all makes sense. Zeller is #1 on mock drafts. It's clearly our time to miss the playoffs by one game and win the lottery to draft our hometown player! Woohoo!
Even if Danny Granger were to miss the entire season, which actually sounds plausible unfortunately, the Pacers are still a playoff team.
There just aren't enough decent teams in the East to threaten that.
"I had to take her down like Chris Brown."
-Lance Stephenson
Just an injection and out for 3 months? wtf?
It's really time for Lance and Paul George to step up on the wings, and Roy to step up inside. We HAVE to make teams pay from the outside.
If this means 3 months of Sam Young in the starting line up...
Young is no replacement. I'm hoping he gets cut and the team brings in someone who can shoot a little.
...So who comes back first, Danny or D. Rose? The Central Division just became WIDE OPEN.
...Still "flying casual"

Perhaps Laurence Mills may have had access to the Ven's draft MN? Did any of his notes ever make their way into the Mahamakuta edition of his "A Treasury of the Buddha's Discourses from the Majjhima-nikaya"? I lost both volumes when I was moving home.
But I'm puzzled by the Ven's point. If there's a search for this ontology, one might look to √bhū, surely not √bhu as suggested by the Ven. Or was this just a typeset error in footnote 46/1?

Hey everyone, this will be my personal/realistic booking of WWE summerslam 2013. In my opinion wwe has potential to put on an excellent ppv that could end up being the ppv of the year. I'm basing the card off recent storylines, online rumors and what the fans would like to see. Since Jericho is taking time off to tour with fozzy he will be left off the card.
Hello all, this will be my personal booking for WM 30 based on storylines that are happening now and potential future storylines. I tried to make it as realistic as possible and tried to include almost the entire roster. I excluded Big Show and Mark Henry from the show because I feel their days are over and they're going to retire shortly.
Preshow: Over the Top Battle Royal (Divas title)
Hello everyone, this is going to be my card for this years WWE Summerslam 2013. This show has so much potential to be an excellent ppv, and one of the best in years if done right. I'm going to try to include as many guys as I can to make the show well rounded since it is the second biggest show of the year. Some notable guys left off will be Chris Jericho, Big Show, Mysterio and Mark Henry. I think
Hey everyone! This is my WM 30 card that is partially dream and partially realistic due to the fact thats its 10 months away. I have listed the matches in the order I see fit with the match times as well. Some notable talents that are not present are Big Show and Kane. This is because i see them retiring very shortly.HHH is also not on the card due to his age and soon to be control of the company.
This is my realistic card for the June PPV payback. The show will have 7 matches that will all be given the appropriate time. I really dont see CM Punk returning this soon. I also tried to include all the big names on the roster to have a match on the show so here we go. Also, let me know what you think please with comments below.

Love Love Love! review by HollyAnn on 10/26/16How do you rate this product?
This shampoo and conditioner is HEAVENLY, SCRUMPTIOUS, WONDERFUL, AWESOME!
I love the way it feels on my scalp! So I read on the back of the bottle it can be used as an anti-aging face wash and OMG it's great! It doesn't dry out your face. I stopped using my Clinique face wash. I liked it so much that I got my son to start washing his face with it. He is 15 yrs old and has acne. He has been using it for a month now and his face has cleared up! I have tried so many expensive acne products that have dried out his face and really didn't do anything for him. This stuff is AMAZING!
***I was not paid to say any of this***
Great product to have in your shower review by Rebeca on 10/8/16How do you rate this product?
I really enjoy this multi-use shampoo. The natural minty smell is really a plus, especially on those mornings when it's hard to get up. It makes my hair shiny, but doesn't make it feel heavy or unnatural. I also am happy using it as a body/face wash, as it's not overly drying and it does not leave any sort of film on my skin. I will say that It's a little runny for my taste, but I still much prefer this shampoo over any others.
best shampoo ever! review by stimmy on 2/1/13How do you rate this product?
bought this and really happy with the product!!

If inclement weather occurs during a camp day that has already begun, it is possible that we may communicate with parents via email about having their child picked up early that day.

The community of Bishops Cannings will have the chance to see how the agricultural industry operates in their area on Open Farm Sunday, June 15, when local farmers Jonny and Rachael Rider welcome them onto their land.
The event, which is open to the public, is the culmination of the Bishops Cannings parish festival and Mr and Mrs Rider will have been showing some 300 children around the farm during the previous week.
Local farmer Elizabeth Frearson, who is helping to organise the event, said: "Starting with a pet service at 11am taken by local retired priest, Canon Royle, there then follows a full family dog show, held by Macqueen Veterinary Centre to raise funds for the Cinnamon Trust.
"In the orchard, a full display of Jonny and Rachael's rare breed farm animals and poultry can be seen, with children able to get up really close. In the arena, a flying display will demonstrate the wonderful delights of hawks and owls followed by the somewhat more noisy but wonderfully traditional antics of the Devizes Jubilee Morris Dancers.
"Tucked away for safekeeping from all the animals and visiting dogs will be the Bishops Cannings Bake Off, which anybody can enter with their home-baked goodies including a class entitled Dad's Favourite Pud in recognition of it being Father's Day. Dads and their families can also pit their wits and strength against each other in a bonkers family obstacle course."

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- In the category of "Things That Go Bump in the Night," I'm beginning to sense an opportunistic shift happening in the stock market right now under our noses and under the radar".There's been plenty of media hype about the possibility of interest rates rising as investors continue to dump bonds and buy stocks with good dividends. That's driven companies like Procter & Gamble ( PG) up to new 52-week highs. Investors have been chasing yield and that's partly why the blue-chip stock dividend payers including PG and Johnson & Johnson ( JNJ) have been driven upward to unsustainably high price levels. The Federal Reserve and Chairman Ben Bernanke will factor into this equation beginning Wednesday. That's when he'll make yet another policy announcement after the Federal Open Market Committee meeting. The wording of this announcement might trigger a short-term stock market correction, especially if the Fed injects any uncertainty about interest rates. The Fed told investors repeatedly it'll keep the federal funds rate at 0% until the U.S. unemployment rates falls to 6.5% from its current level at 7.7%. Even a hint of waffling on that promise could cause a selloff in what I call the "Dividend Dynasty Stocks," or DDS. If you're an investor you probably own some of them. So I'm suggesting the possibility of a temporary sector rotation out of the high-flying DDS-type equities and into sectors where stock prices haven't gone ballistic yet. On his TV show "Mad Money", Jim Cramer referred to this possibility as well and identified some sectors that may benefit from such a sector shift. Jim Cramer and Stephanie Link actively manage a real money portfolio for his charitable trust --enjoy advance notice of every trade, full access to the portfolio, and deep coverage of the latest economic events and market movements. Jim mentioned the financials, the insurance companies and even the transportation sector. It may be true the next PG-style investment opportunity may be in a laggard such as Prudential Financial ( PRU). PRU provides a range of insurance, investment management and other financial products and services to both individual and institutional customers in the United States and internationally. (By the way, PRU wasn't on Jim's list during his telecast.) PRU is selling at a little less than seven times its forward (one-year) expected earnings and has a price-to-earnings-to-growth (PEG) ratio of only 0.58, which usually indicates undervaluation. If an overall stock market correction brought PRU's stock price down to its March 1, 2013, intraday low of $54.29, the dividend yield-to-price would rise to nearly 3%.

Feels like I am Not Getting Enough Air
I`m a 15 year old girl and I sometimes feel like I`m not getting enough air. It happens quite often and I have to take deep breaths in order to breathe normally again. It happens at night and when I`m in the back of my classroom at school. Plus I am an active teen with no other problems.
It is amazing how difficult it is to "breathe normally" when you are thinking about your breathing, rather than letting it occur naturally. The symptoms you describe are not typical for problems caused by the lungs not working correctly. They do happen when folks are worrying about their breathing or breathing using a method that does not work well.
It is much easier to get a normal breath of air if you use your diaphragm to breath, rather than just your rib cage. If you are correctly using your diaphragm, your stomach should bulge out a bit when you inhale. A description of how to breathe with your diaphragm can be found here.
I would recommend that you try this breathing method anytime you feel like you are not getting enough air. I suspect it will relieve your symptoms quickly. If you keep having difficulty, the next step would be to see your doctor for further evaluation and suggestions.

I would spend my free hours between library visits with my nose buried in a book, and at night, if it was past my bedtime, burrowed under the covers with a flashlight, reading. It's no wonder I decided at an early age that I wanted to become a writer. To me, books were magic, and I wanted to be part o that magic.
