Somewhere in Alabama, there's a very happy Auburn fan.
If that seems improbable after last week, look no further than his fiancé's finger.
There's a $7,000 engagement ring on it. It was free, thanks to Auburn's offense.
Make that lack of offense. Alabama beat Auburn, 49-0, last Saturday, which normally would kick off a year of mourning for Tiger fans.
But about 300 people around Gardendale, Ala., feel like Powerball winners. They were smart enough to gamble on the Iron Bowl Shutout Special.
Anyone who bought an item at Jeff Dennis Jewelers from Nov. 16-23 would get their money refunded if Auburn or Alabama failed to score.
Thank you, Nick Saban.
"We literally put more than $50,000 back in customers' pockets," Dennis said. "That's something no other jewelry store in America can say."
That's something no other business can probably say. Dennis may have stumbled upon the greatest marketing promotion since Victoria's Secret discovered models.
Millions of consumers fancy themselves sports experts. Can you imagine a better way to get their attention and business? Especially in the state of Alabama, where every child is consecrated at birth to be a Tide or Tiger zealot?
Dennis is the oddball who cheers for both schools. He'd dabbled in offbeat marketing before, like refunding money if it snowed on Christmas.
He was sitting around a couple of weeks ago when the Iron Bowl crossed his mind. He didn't want to take sides and alienate half his customer base.
In theory, the shutout proposition would be a neutral play. In reality, the Tigers were piling up points like a bad hockey team.
"I just looked at the year Auburn was having and thought, 'You know what, there's a real possibility this might happen,'" Dennis said.
Businesses typically get insurance when they risk merchandise in contests. Dennis contacted a couple of local brokers. The premiums quoted amounted to about 50 percent of the projected sales that week. That wasn't going to cut it.
"Everyone in Alabama knew how bad Auburn was," Dennis said.
Luckily for him, Lloyd's of London isn't near Tuscaloosa. The insurance syndicate has been around since 1774. It is famous for insuring things like Jimmy Durante's nose, Bruce Springsteen's vocal chords and Tina Turner's legs.
Head and Shoulders shampoo insured Troy Polamalu's hair for $1 million a couple of years ago. Apparently that is the extent of Lloyd's football knowledge. Either that, or the boys in the home office were all incorrigible Gene Chizik fans.
Dennis is not allowed to reveal what the premium was, but he said a similar policy is usually less than 10 percent of the projected sales. The paperwork was finalized too late for Dennis to advertise on the radio or in the paper. He just posted it on the store's Facebook page.
"This was all driven by social media," Dennis said.
Business almost tripled over the same period last year. And why wouldn't it? It's not as if customers had to return their merchandise if there wasn't a shutout.
Iron Bowl historians know shutouts aren't all that unusual. There'd been two since 2000. From 1959-62, Alabama shut out Auburn four straight times.
This year's blowout was drama-free for most of the 101,821 at Bryant-Denny Stadium. For customers from Dennis Jewelers, it was must-see TV until Alabama got the ball with about a minute left.
You could hear the bling tinkling all over Gardendale.
"I couldn't even keep up with the responses on the Facebook page," Dennis said.
A few customers have been by this week to cash in. Many are waiting until Dec. 7, when Dennis is throwing an Iron Bowl refund party.
The entire promotion cost about $200, not counting the premium. Whatever he paid, Dennis said he has more than made up for it in sales and buzz.
"I can't put a value on the advertising," he said.
The whole thing was as risk-free for him as it was the customers. That's why he's already conjuring future sport-related promotions.
"You can buy insurance on anything," Dennis said.
Free diamonds if Saban cracks a smile? Think of the potential across the entire business spectrum.
Apple could refund iPod purchases if the BCS championship game goes into triple overtime. Sears could refund refrigerator sales if Kobe Bryant takes fewer than 10 shots in a game.
Chevy might even move a few Volts off the lot if there were a Super Bowl tie-in.
If the marketing people are skeptical, they need to give Dennis a call. Or better yet, find the Auburn fan who bought that engagement ring.
"He's not taking the loss too hard," Dennis said.
Considering the shutout saved him seven grand, the guy will probably invite Saban to the wedding.

BARBURY Castle trainer Alan King admits it is not ideal for Medermit to have his first run for nearly two years on heavy ground in the Betfair Ascot Chase on Saturday.
The popular grey has not been seen since finishing a close fourth in the Betfred Bowl at the Grand National meeting of 2012.
He met with a setback at the start of the following season and his return this campaign was delayed slightly by a pulled muscle which prevented him from running at Cheltenham's meeting on New Year's Day.
Now a 10-year-old, Medermit has been second in a Supreme Novices' Hurdle and fourth in an Arkle in his pomp and holds an entry in the Gold Cup next month.
King is, however, just keen to get him back on a racetrack.
"He's obviously been off a very long time," said the Barbury Castle handler.
"He's in good order, though, and we need to get a run into him if we've got any plans of sending him to Cheltenham.
"I would have preferred better ground to bring him back on but we've just got no option.
"If we want a run it will have to be on this ground."

Maybe for general aviation to survive, we need more disruption.
An article published in Wired magazine (Clayton Christensen Wants to Transform Capitalism, by Jeff Howe) discussed how successful companies often fail to recognize that new companies with "disruptive innovations" are about to take over their marketplace.
As Howe wrote, "Successful businesses, Christensen explained, are trained to focus on what he calls sustaining innovations—innovations at the profitable, high end of the market, making things incrementally bigger, more powerful, and more efficient. The problem is that this leaves companies vulnerable to the disruptive innovations that emerge in the murky, low-margin bottom of the market. And this is where the true revolutions occur, creating new markets and wreaking havoc within industries. Think: the PC, the MP3, the transistor radio."
There may be parallels in the general aviation industry, which by all accounts is still stagnating. Maybe some disruption would help.
For example, when Embraer made a strong push into the business aviation market with new clean-sheet designs, that was disruptive. And the old-line manufacturers did little, at the time, to counter this disruption. Cessna finally scrambled to field new models to compete with Embraer and the former Hawker Beechcraft experienced a wrenching bankruptcy, shutting down its jet manufacturing business in the process. Should these companies have moved faster to counter Embraer's disruption? Probably, but maybe no one recognized the disruption.
For another example, Garmin recently revealed that an internal group called Team X has been developing low-cost but powerful avionics for the experimental market. While these avionics are built and tested to high standards, they don't meet all of the certification requirements that avionics for certified aircraft must meet. Yet the builder of an experimental airplane can fly IFR in instrument meteorological conditions with experimental avionics, sharing the same airspace with the rest of the certified aviation world. These experimental avionics sell for far, far less than their equivalent certified big brothers, but are probably just as reliable and safe. Disruptive? I think so.
What would be even more disruptive would be the FAA recognizing that certification in some cases adds very little safety value. Flying magazine editor-in-chief Robert Goyer captured this in a blog post, suggesting that the FAA relax certification requirements for retrofits of older aircraft weighing less than 6,000 pounds. The least expensive certified glass panel PFD for retrofit costs more than $10,000. What incentive is there for the owner of a $30,000 Piper Cherokee to upgrade? But what if that Garmin G3X glass panel cost just $4,375, and adding an integrated two-axis autopilot cost another $1,500?
Garmin is not new to the idea of disruption. The company's Garmin Pilot iPad app, consistently growing in capability, could be viewed as another example of internal disruption. The app costs a fraction of what a new Garmin portable aviation GPS unit costs, although the app doesn't (yet) offer all of the portable's features. Of course, the iPad itself disrupted the electronic flight bag market.
Here's another idea. The Light Sport Aircraft (LSA) category was supposed to be disruptive, but I'm not sure that has been the case. Cessna jumped into LSAs with a relatively low-cost airplane—the Skycatcher—which quickly garnered deposits for more than 1,000 orders. Last year, Cessna delivered just 19 Skycatchers. Some think this is because Cessna's new leadership raised the price too high. Others think that the new leadership is simply not interested in the LSA market and is trying to shut the program down.
Whatever…so how about some real disruption, Cessna? Give away a Skycatcher with every new aircraft purchase, from a new 172 to a Citation X. This would either lead to a huge reduction in flight training and rental costs and a fresh crop of new pilots who admire Cessna products, or it would prove once and for all whether Cessna ought to serve the LSA market. Either way, the results will be dramatic, and Cessna will learn something new. Lessons like that often deliver extraordinary value.

The FAA needs to figure out how to do this. 'Airframe' certification requirements for electronics is not very useful. Certifying that the electronics meet the requirements for safe use in the airspace system is good, but, at least in small planes, the installation into any particular airframe, if done by licensed repair stations, which is required anyway, is less likely to cause an unsafe condition than the vacuum driven gauges that they can replace.

Experimental quality radios and avionics would be just fine. They work, and can fail whether they are certificated or not. The failure risk between certificated equipment and experimental is equal, and the benefits great because the lower cost will encourage owners to upgrade to modern equipment rather than flying with archaic, failure prone old equipment.
In the interest of aviation safety, it will be helpful if the FAA recognizes that lower cost equipment, whether certificated or experimental, will improve safety due to the quality and safety improvements over old technology.

It is common practice for pilots to use portable avionics during IFR training or actual. Nominally, the pilot of a legacy aircraft is flying IFR using VORs, but he as the astonishing ability to maintain a straight flight path even when experiencing a 20 kt crosswind. Something that he shouldn't really be able to do with VOR alone. For some reason having that iPad in the cockpit provides a bit more than supplemental navigation capability.
I think the FAA is now facing something similar to what the Michigan Department of Natural Resources faced when cougars reappeared in the state. There was a lot of evidence that they were here, scientists even collected cougar scat. Cameras were set up that took photos of cougar. After a long time of this the DNR admitted that they were present and developed a conservation plan.
So it is in GA. We know that pilots are flying with ipads, the FAA knows what pilots are using them for primary navigation. Pilots know that non-certified avionics are good. So they get them in there airplanes as non-primary flight displays.
GA pilots know, that the FAA knows, that GA pilots know that the rules need to be changed. But we'll play this game for a while, until market forces dictate that the FAA change the rules.
Personally, I will welcome the day when I can take my purpose built $400 tablet out to my plane, with my flight plan preloaded with all radio frequencies, course direction, and anticipated speed; and just plug it into a mount on my panel where it will act as my radio, autopilot and pull in all sensor data for appropriate display. It will have synthetic vision, night vision display and a weather and traffic overlay.
I fly with a guy who has the $25,000 (with installation costs) GNS430w installed. He hardly even uses it. It's there for legal reasons. He prefers his 296 mounted on the glare shield and his iPad loaded with Foreflight.

Yeah! Cessna could give away a free Skycatcher with every other model sold and loose a little on each deal but, make it up in volume. That will be a hard sale...to Cessna anyway.

For VFR usage portable units are great, keep the required minimum equipment and just replace the not-required Nav/Com,ADF,DME,etc. Even the comm. radio if not listed as required equipment may be replaced with hand held. A suitable enclosure can make most units designed for panel mounting portable as well, all that is needed is an adequate power supply.

We owners of old certified airplanes can't get accurate, digital fuel guages to depend on since the manufacturer is out of business and no one wants to spend thousands for an expensive STC. So, we fly the old guages which are there for no more than decoration, and depend on "sticking the tanks" with marked paint sticks and always carrying more fuel than we need because the FAA demands that any system put in a "certified" airplane must be "certified" while the E-AB airplanes all around can use UNcertified systems and guages without a problem. This is creating an unsafe situation for owners of vintage "certified" airplanes.

I'm a student pilot at this time, trying to realize a life-long dream as I near retirement. I see this issue as one of the biggest facing GA today. I simply can't afford to pay the price for certificated upgrades on my 57-year-old Tri-Pacer (who can?), while at the same time am amazed by the capabilities of my $400 i-Pad compared with the instrumentation I'm required to have.
It's a crying shame that the FAA, whose mission is to promote aviation safety (have I got that wrong?) apparently doesn't see this, or chooses not to. The bureaucracy associated with any repairs or modifications to my old airplane --I'm a mechanic by nature-- just astounds me.
When I first read the article about Garmin's recent EA-category release... well, how do you spell "drool"....

This would be remarkable if it happens. But most government agencies will keep growing, this would reduce some workload at the FAA, then how would they justify that department. It would be interesting to know how many people work there monitoring this data.

We need disruptive changes in powerplants. Modern auto engines are more reliable and require less maintenance than typical GA engines. Even Rotax certified engines are more expensive than similarly rated high efficiency auto engines; likely due to production inefficiencies resulting from small annual quantities. This would also allow a quicker solution to the UL fuel issues as legacy engines were replaced with engines designed for UL fuel.

Good evening, everyone. Welcome to our 32nd National Veterans Wheelchair Games! I'm honored to be here. Let me acknowledge our special guests:
This is the third time that I'm addressing this Sponsors' Dinner, and the usual sequence is for me to acknowledge our distinguished guests, which I have just done, and then in about three to five minutes thank all our sponsors, citing a meaty quotation from some long-departed and often unrecalled philosopher.
This year, let me take a couple of more minutes to think out loud with you about what these Wheelchair Games mean. You are all heavily invested in them. And while we call them "games," they are really rehabilitation events—I think you all know that. These activities get these severely and permanently injured Veterans to push their personal envelopes of physical activity in ways other activities do not. In the process, they are invigorated, energized, made more confident, more engaged in year-round physical fitness, and their mental health and overall physical well-being are improved. They live healthier lives and longer ones as well.
To do this one week, these Veterans have to work year-round to maintain some level of conditioning. The number of Veterans in need of care and benefits is increasing, and the complexity of injuries and illnesses has increased as well.
Battlefield medicine has greatly improved, and survival rates are incredible. So the requirements for VA-provided care and benefits are large and growing. Whenever the last combatant returns from Afghanistan, we expect VA's requirements will continue to grow for another decade or more, which brings me to the point of this evening's remarks.
Your investments are incredibly generous and supremely important. We could not do this without the support of everyone in this room. Today, less than one percent of Americans serve in uniform. These athletes are, simply, some of the folks who make us the land of the free and the home of the brave.
In his 1950 acceptance speech, Nobel laureate and great writer William Faulkner of the Southern literary tradition said: "I believe that man will not merely endure; he will prevail. He is immortal, not because he alone among creatures has an inexhaustible voice, but because he has a soul, a spirit capable of compassion and sacrifice and endurance."
This week, you will see evidence of all three—compassion, sacrifice, endurance. Veterans who have already sacrificed so much for this country get to demonstrate that the warrior spirit did not dim one iota when they suffered their injuries.
Thank you all for giving these very special men and women this opportunity to prevail. We know there are lots of causes worthy of your support—but your generosity in supporting these Wheelchair Games will ensure that every single participant goes home a winner and with the fire to train for next year's competition.
God bless our Veterans, and may God continue to bless this wonderful country of ours.
Thank you.

Updated from 11:56 a.m. ET to reflect closing share prices, Capital One ShareBuilder comment and data
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Twitter (TWTR) had a blockbuster first day of trading as a public company, after the micro-blogging site raised nearly $2 billion in capital in an initial public offering that valued the fast growing company in excess of $18 billion, when counting stock option grants.
Investors following the company's IPO process, which began with a Tweet in early October, weren't disappointing.
Twitter shares rose nearly 73% from its IPO pricing on Wednesday evening and accounted for a large portion the trading volume on the New York Stock Exchange (NYX).
Twitter shares closed at $44.90, up 72.69% from its IPO pricing of $26 a share. After its first day of trading, Twitter is now valued at roughly $24 billion, more than a majority of the companies in the S&P 500 Index.
In contrast to Facebook's (FB) blockbuster May 2012 listing, Twitter's IPO went off without any technical hitches, allowing for a scandal-free first day of trading.
Dan Greenshields, president of Capital One ShareBuilder, said Twitter stock trades accounted for about 50% of the online brokerage's volume on Thursday. Greenshields said in a telephone interview after the market close that Twitter's IPO also resulted in the Capital One ShareBuilder's highest daily trading volume of the year.
"I am very pleased. It is positive that the listing went off without a hitch," Greenshields added.
Twitter opened trading at $45.10 up over 70% from its IPO pricing, and well above levels most investors and analysts would recommend investors buy shares.
After reaching a share price in excess of $50 a share in early trading, Twitter closed down 20 cents for the day, meaning retail investors buying into the IPO weren't likely to capture much of Twitter's day-one stock surge. The company now has a bigger market capitalization than tech and media powerhouses like Sony (SNE) and Netflix (NFLX).
Some analysts now see reason for caution. Brian Wieser, an analyst with Pivotal Global Research downgraded Twitter to 'sell' given Twitter's opening share price. The analyst had initiated Twitter with a 'buy'rating and a $29 a share price target.
"At a $45 price level (the stock opened at $45.10), the enterprise value is approximately $30bn...or almost the same valuation as Discovery Communications, and nearly the same valuation as CBS or the combined Publicis Omnicom Group...or even Yahoo (some will argue that Yahoo's stake in Alibaba is worth this much, too)," Wieser wrote in a downgrade of Twitter to 'sell' based on a revised $30 a share price target.
Twitter's day-one close puts the company at a valuation multiple in-line with benchmarks analysts had expected the company to hit by the end of 2014. It indicates investors buying into Twitter's first day of trading should expect to be invested for the long-term.

As always, Sporting News' weekly Field of 68 is a projection of what the NCAA Tournament selection committee would do based on what's happened so far this season.
Bubble watch: Kentucky. This is the most important week of the Wildcats' entire season. On Tuesday, they visit an Ole Miss team that has a perfect 6-0 record in the SEC, and on Saturday, they play on the road against a Texas A&M team that beat UK at Rupp Arena by a dozen points a few short weeks ago. Lose both, and their NCAA hopes might just vanish. (Yes, the Wildcats have two games left with Florida, but let's be honest—we've seen absolutely zero evidence to suggest Kentucky can hang with the Gators this season.) A win at Ole Miss would be huge, and even a win at A&M would be resounding. Kentucky is 0-4 against Top 50 teams (by both RPI and Pomeroy ratings), and though the Wildcats played a couple marquee non-conference games, their NCSOS is mediocre at best (59th by RPI, 175th by Pomeroy).
Toughest to seed: Illinois. Always, Illinois. The Fighting Illini have three truly great wins—Gonzaga, Butler and Ohio State—but they're 2-5 in the Big Ten and could easily lose their next four league games (at Michigan State, vs. Wisconsin, vs. Indiana, at Minnesota).
Jekyll and Hyde week: Iowa State. The Cyclones absorbed their worst defeat of the season—at Texas Tech, one of the Big 12's two worst teams—and pulled off their best victory of the season—at home against a Kansas State team ranked No. 11 in the country. This is Iowa State's make-or-break stretch: their next four games are at Oklahoma State, vs. Baylor, vs. Oklahoma and at Kansas State.
One-bid league spotlight: The MAC race has turned into a showdown between Akron and Ohio; both teams enter the week with perfect 6-0 conference records. Both teams have more than enough talent to win a couple of NCAA Tournament games—Akron 7-footer Zeke Marshall is averaging 12.6 points and 3.8 blocks per game, and Ohio point guard D.J. Cooper averages 14.6 points and 8.2 assists. Neither has much of a shot at an at-large berth, though, which makes Saturday's showdown at Akron must-watch television (on ESPNU).
Note: Automatic bids, listed in parenthesis, are given to the team with the best conference record (through Sunday's games), with overall record used to break ties.
1. Kansas (Big 12), Michigan (Big Ten), Florida, Indiana
The Jayhawks get the ever-so-slight edge for the No. 1 overall seed this week. Their resume is incredibly similar to Michigan's, in terms of Top 50 wins, strength of schedule and human rankings—Michigan is No. 1 this week in the AP, Kansas takes the top spot in the coaches poll. Common opponents matter when resumes are so closely matched, and it's hard to ignore that Kansas won at Ohio State, while the Wolverines suffered their only loss of the season to the Buckeyes in Columbus.
2. Duke, Arizona, Syracuse (Big East), Gonzaga (West Coast)
Gonzaga feasted on strong Big 12 opponents in the non-conference portion of the schedule, and that's going to pay off in the long run. They played four likely NCAA Tournament teams from that league and won all four games—against Kansas State, Oklahoma State, Baylor and Oklahoma.
3. Butler (Atlantic 10), Miami (ACC), Louisville, Michigan State
Because of injury or suspension, Miami has only played a handful of games at full strength, and the Hurricanes have been incredibly impressive in those games—they beat Michigan State on Nov. 28, and crushed Duke and Florida State in the two games after big man Reggie Johnson returned from a thumb injury.
4. Ohio State, Oregon (Pac-12), Minnesota, Wichita State (Missouri Valley)
Minnesota has lost four consecutive Big Ten games, and tumbled mightily in the computer rankings—all the way to 11th in the RPI and ninth in the Pomeroy rankings. The fact that the Golden Gophers are still rated so highly after this skid says a lot about the quality of the Big Ten this season.
5. New Mexico (Mountain West), N.C. State, UNLV, Cincinnati
Very few teams can look as good or as bad on any given day as the N.C. State Wolfpack. Last week, they gave up 51 second-half points in a loss to Wake Forest on Tuesday, then knocked off North Carolina at home on Saturday. This is a huge week for the Wolfpack, with a road game against a potentially frustrating tempo-controlling Virginia team and then a home contest against undefeated ACC dynamo Miami.
6. Kansas State, San Diego State, UCLA, Mississippi (SEC)
Mississippi's a No. 6 seed this week, which is more than enough reason to link to the GIF that college basketball fans and writers spent the weekend talking about: Marshall Henderson taunting Auburn fans after a couple of late free-throws.
7. Missouri, Wisconsin, Creighton, Marquette
Marquette's a No. 7 seed this week, which is more than enough reason to link to the most bizarre moment of this crazy college basketball season: A bat dive-bombing Sidiki Johnson during the Providence-Marquette game on Saturday.
8. Pittsburgh, VCU, Baylor, Georgetown
This was a rough week for VCU, which dropped a road contest at Richmond, then lost at home to La Salle. Games against Rhode Island and Fordham this week should allow for a chance to get well.
9. Oklahoma State, Illinois, Colorado State, Notre Dame
It's fair to say the computers like Colorado State more than the human poll voters. The Rams are ranked 23rd in the RPI and 19th in the Pomeroy ratings, but received just a single 25th-place vote in the AP poll and only six points in coaches poll. Larry Eustachy's team has a pair of important home games this week, against tournament bubble teams Boise State and Wyoming.
10. Memphis, North Carolina, Colorado, La Salle
Since the NCAA Tournament started seeding teams in 1979, North Carolina has made 31 tournament appearances and missed only three times. The Tar Heels have never been worse than a No. 8 seed (they were No. 8 seeds in 1990 and 2000), and have only been worse than a No. 3 seed three other times (No. 6 in 2004, No. 6 in 1996 and No. 4 in 1992).
11. Oklahoma, Arizona State, Temple, Belmont (Ohio Valley)
It's entirely possible that Arizona State will be left out of the tournament based on its horribly weak non-conference schedule—the Sun Devils played just two teams in the Pomeroy Top 130 (78 Arkansas and 14 Creighton). But if they keep playing like they did in a convincing 78-60 win against UCLA on Saturday, it's entirely possible they'll make the tournament with ease.
12. Boise State, Iowa State, Wyoming, Villanova, Southern Miss (C-USA), Bucknell (Patriot)
You might have heard that Villanova beat two top-five teams (Louisville and Syracuse) at home this week. That's why they're here. For now. Long way to go to secure a bid in March.
13. Middle Tennessee (Sun Belt), Akron (MAC), Louisiana Tech (WAC), Stephen F. Austin (Southland)
14. Davidson (Southern), Harvard (Ivy), Valparaiso (Horizon), Stony Brook (America East)
15. Long Beach State (Big West), Bryant (Northeast), Niagara (Metro Atlantic), Florida Gulf Coast (Atlantic Sun)
16. Northeastern (Colonial), Western Illinois (Summit), Montana (Big Sky), Charleston Southern (Big South), Norfolk State (Mid-Eastern), Southern (Southwestern)
Newbies this week: Florida Gulf Coast, La Salle, Montana, Stony Brook, Villanova, Western Illinois
Dropped out: Albany, Kentucky, Maryland, North Dakota State Stetson, Weber State
Bubble boys (in alphabetical order): Alabama, BYU, Charlotte, Indiana State, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Ohio, Saint Louis, St. Mary's

Caffe Vita is in the midst of an exploration of one of the oldest of coffee origins; the gateway of Arabica to the rest of the world, the region commonly known as Harar, or more accurately the vast mountainous area of eastern Ethiopia called Hararghe.
Beginning at the farm level, the family cares for an average of 500 trees with the utmost care- composting, pruning, and shade maintenance through traditional organic agriculture. The region is arid, with the tradition of sun-dried coffee the only option for preservation. Fortunately this process leads to the complex, fruity aromas and heavy mouth feel that Harar coffees are so prized for.
Unfortunately for the lovers of Harar coffee, much of the land has been transitioned into the cultivation of khat, the stimulating shrub enjoyed by so many in Ethiopia, Yemen, and beyond. With an average of three harvests per year, the khat farmer is able to enjoy a steadier income than that of the coffee farmer with only one harvest each year. Some inter cropping of the two is taking place, but I imagine that the competition for soil nutrients leaves the quality of both compromised.
These small-holder farmers will typically sell to the local market, who in turn sell to the ECX, or Ethiopia Commodity Exchange. The coffee is graded and then sold to exporters as a broadly categorized type; for example Harar A4, which corresponds to East Hararghe, Grade 4.
As soon as the coffee is in the possession of the exporter they are able to visually inspect the coffee and depending on their experience, recognize the coffee as belonging to a specific location within the region. Meticulous sorting then takes place via machinery and hand to remove stones, full dried cherries, and various other debris before the coffee is ready for export. This is likely the most mysterious, convuluted, and labor intensive supply chain in coffee.

Potassium ChloridePronunciation
Generic Name: potassium chloride (poe TASS ee um)
Brand Names: EPIKLOR, K-Dur, K-Lor, K-Tab, Kal Potassium 99, Kaochlor S-F, Kaon-CL, Kay Ciel, Klor-Con, Micro-K, Rum-K
What is potassium chloride?
Potassium is a mineral that is found in many foods and is needed for several functions of your body, especially the beating of your heart.
Potassium chloride is used to prevent or to treat low blood levels of potassium (hypokalemia). Potassium levels can be low as a result of a disease or from taking certain medicines, or after a prolonged illness with diarrhea or vomiting.
Potassium chloride may also be used for other purposes not listed in this medication guide.
Important information
You should not use potassium chloride if you have kidney failure, Addison's disease, severe burns or other tissue injury, if you are dehydrated, if you take certain diuretics (water pills), or if you have high levels of potassium in your blood (hyperkalemia). Do not crush, chew, break, or suck on an extended-release tablet or capsule. Swallow the pill whole. Breaking or crushing the pill may cause too much of the drug to be released at one time. Sucking on a potassium tablet can irritate your mouth or throat. Take potassium chloride with food or just after a meal.
To be sure potassium chloride is helping your condition, your blood may need to be tested often. Your heart rate may also be checked using an electrocardiograph or ECG (sometimes called an EKG) to measure electrical activity of the heart. This test will help your doctor determine how long to treat you with potassium. Do not miss any scheduled appointments.
Serious side effects of potassium include uneven heartbeat, muscle weakness or limp feeling, severe stomach pain, and numbness or tingling in your hands, feet, or mouth.
Do not stop taking this medicine without first talking to your doctor. If you stop taking potassium suddenly, your condition may become worse.
Before taking this medicine
You should not use potassium chloride if you are allergic to it, or if you have certain conditions. Be sure your doctor knows if you have:
high levels of potassium in your blood (hyperkalemia);
kidney failure;
Addison's disease (an adrenal gland disorder);
a large tissue injury such as a severe burn;
if you are severely dehydrated; or
if you are taking a "potassium-sparing" diuretic (water pill) such as amiloride (Midamor, Moduretic), spironolactone (Aldactone, Aldactazide), triamterene (Dyrenium, Dyazide, Maxzide).
To make sure you can safely take potassium chloride, tell your doctor if you have any of these other conditions:
- kidney disease;
heart disease or high blood pressure;
a blockage in your stomach or intestines; or
chronic diarrhea (such as ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease).
FDA pregnancy category C. It is not known whether potassium chloride will harm an unborn baby. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant while using this medication. It is not known whether potassium chloride passes into breast milk or if it could harm a nursing baby. Do not use this medication without telling your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby.
See also: Pregnancy and breastfeeding warnings (in more detail)
How should I take potassium chloride?
Take potassium chloride exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Do not take in larger or smaller amounts or for longer than recommended. Follow the directions on your prescription label.
Mix the powder, granule, or liquid form of this medicine with at least 4 ounces (one-half cup) of cold water or fruit juice before taking. Drink the mixture slowly, over 5 to 10 minutes in all. To make sure you get the entire dose, add a little more water to the same glass, swirl gently and drink right away.
Do not crush, chew, break, or suck on an extended-release tablet or capsule. Swallow the pill whole. Breaking or crushing the pill may cause too much of the drug to be released at one time. Sucking on a potassium tablet can irritate your mouth or throat.
Take potassium chloride with food or just after a meal.
Your treatment may include a special diet. It is very important to follow the diet plan created for you by your doctor or nutrition counselor. You should become very familiar with the list of foods you should eat or avoid to help control your condition.
Potassium-rich foods include: squash, baked potatoes (skin on), spinach, lentils, broccoli, brussels sprouts, zucchini, kidney or navy beans, raisins, watermelon, orange juice, bananas, cantaloupe, and low-fat milk or yogurt. Consume only the daily amounts recommended by your doctor or nutrition counselor.
To be sure potassium chloride is helping your condition, your blood may need to be tested often. Your heart rate may also be checked using an electrocardiograph or ECG (sometimes called an EKG) to measure electrical activity of the heart. This test will help your doctor determine how long to treat you with potassium. Do not miss any scheduled appointments.
Do not stop taking this medicine without first talking to your doctor. If you stop taking potassium suddenly, your condition may become worse.
Store at room temperature away from moisture and heat. Keep the medication in a closed container.

What happens if I miss a dose?
Take the missed dose as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and take the medicine at the next regularly scheduled time. Do not take extra medicine to make up the missed dose.
What happens if I overdose?
Seek emergency medical attention or call the Poison Help line at 1-800-222-1222.
Overdose symptoms may include heavy feeling in your arms or legs, confusion, weak or shallow breathing, slow or uneven heartbeat, seizure (convulsions), or feeling like you might pass out.
What should I avoid?
Avoid taking potassium supplements or using other products that contain potassium without first asking your doctor. Salt substitutes or low-salt dietary products often contain potassium. If you take certain products together you may accidentally get too much potassium. Read the label of any other medicine you are using to see if it contains potassium.
Potassium chloride side effects

confusion, anxiety, feeling like you might pass out;
uneven heartbeat;
extreme thirst, increased urination;
leg discomfort;
muscle weakness or limp feeling;
numbness or tingly feeling in your hands or feet, or around your mouth;

Usually athletes consume protein soon after exercise. Therefore, it remains unclear how long muscles stay "primed" to respond in an exaggerated manner to protein feeding.
Canadian researchers tested the muscle protein synthesis response to 15g of protein ingested either during a resting state (i.e. no exercise) and then 24 hours after resistance exercise.
Simply feeding whey protein increased muscle protein synthesis, but the effect was augmented more than two-fold when the same 15g of whey protein was consumed 24 hours after resistance exercise.
These data show for the first time that exercise sensitizes specific muscle proteins to increase their production rate in response to whey protein, and the effect lasts for at least one day after exercise.

Not finding what I was looking for at a local smoke shop...I saw one of these for $2 %26 really just bought it because I spent 10 minutes in the store %26 felt bad leaving with out a purchase. I was almost scared to try it...lol. Wow...really not bad....just a tad bit crude initially...but, great draw...consistent burn...and the taste became more pleasant as I smoked it. Better than some $5 cigars I have purchased. Definitely worth a try!
Was totally fooled by these great smokes.Taste great, burn well, very consistent!
I bought two of these cigars a few months ago. I smoked the first one and thought that it was pretty crude...I was not impressed at all. I thought about giving the second one away but I thought twice about it and threw it into a batch of cigars I was infusing. After a couple of weeks I took out the Robusto to test the batch. It ended up being a surprisingly good smoke!
I was given this cigar free with a sampler pack that I put together! By it being free and lower priced I thought it would be a terrible cigar! It was an excellent cigar by shock and I couldnt beat free.99!

These mild-to-medium robustos have become one of my favorites for the morning drive to work. Good draw, consistent quality. I don't think I've ever had one "tunnel" (see cigar glossary). I always make sure some of these are in the humidor.
They were so so right out of the box. Flavor was a little bland. burn was right on the money. A little time in my small humi should do the trick.
I found this to be a pretty good smoke for the price. While the name is somewhat misleading, this is by no means a deluxe cigar, it is still worth buying and smoking. I smoked this last night and found the burn to be good. I did have to touch it up once during the smoke, but I have had to do this with more expensive smokes as well. The taste was relatively mild but did possess some good flavors, more near the end. There was plenty of smoke and the draw was effortless. The ash held on pretty tightly and was mostly white with a bit of flakiness. I would buy and smoke this again.
The old saying "you get what you pay for" is very true with the Robusto Deluxe. If you like smoking a good cigar, don't waste your time with this cigar.
Won a box of these Robusto's on auction. I was expecting the usual thing, you know, you get what you pay for, 50 smokes for less than 40 bucks? I was totally fooled! These smokes burn great, taste great, and are constructed very well. They'll now be considered my everyday's. Auction or not, these cigars are well worth the price! Try a box and treat yourself to the same pleasant surprise I received. Thanks for another GREAT deal Famous!!
I met this girl when I first interviewed for the position at CubeTech INC. From the first handshake, I knew I wanted to work there because she worked there too. It was love at first hand shake;). Needless to say, they hired me and didn't even balk at the six figure salary requirement. Of all the users, she seems to always have some snafu that only I can attend to. She always stops by my cube to show off her new outfit or sexy new shoes from Wild Pair. Once I carefully commented about the attractive hem on her short, worsted wool skirt. Unabashedly, she explained that she shortened all her skirts by at least two inches, and didn't give a damn what the douche bag mangers had to say about it. What a consistent girl! I have never seen her not wearing stockings and high heel shoes. Once I told her about an employment offer from competitor's company, CubeToc INC. I told her how much I would miss fixing her computer. The next day, the CEO of CubeTech doubled my salary. Wow, that girl has some serious connections at CubeTech! Later that day, she told me she would do whatever it takes to make sure we always work together. She told me how much she enjoys being a show off, and how much she likes it when I look at her. As she pranced off down the cubicle passage, her head spun back quickly, to catch my wandering eye. We both giggled and went about our work joyfully. I love my job. Whenever there is a vacation, I can't wait to start working again.

Revolve Productions To Present A Staged Reading Of Phillips's A CONSUMING FIRE, 1/7
Revolve Productions presents a Staged Reading of A CONSUMING FIRE, a new play by Chris Phillips, on Monday, January 7th, 2013 at 7:00 pm at The Playroom Theater, 151 West 46th Street the 8th Floor, NYC. The dynamic play features Cole Burden, Stuart Green, Scott Thomas Hinson, Lisa Tharps, and Dan Wilson. For reservations contact email@example.com. There is a $5 Suggested Donation.
When mysterious Jim Smalls confesses to murdering a Los Angeles man with no explanation of motive, Assistant District Attorney Mary Hamilton recruits her friend and frequent sparring partner, public defender Rory Dennis, to act as counsel for the suspect. At first, Rory considers the murder an open-and-shut case for the prosecution, but after learning of Jim's history with his first love, Derek -- mirroring Rory's own growing relationship with Mary's brother, Billy -- he begins to identify more closely with his client. As Jim's dark, fifteen-year journey comes more sharply into focus, Rory and Mary both learn that the unsettling truth isn't nearly as black-and-white as it appears. For more information visit www.consumingfiretheplay.com.
Chris Phillips' first play, REVOLVER, was presented in a workshop as part of the CT Tuesdays new works program in the summer of 2010 at Los Angeles' Celebration Theatre, receiving a GLAAD Media Award nomination for Outstanding Los Angeles Theatre. In January 2011, Chris directed a short film adapted from one of the vignettes featured in REVOLVER, the things i cannot change, which screened at the Austin Gay & Lesbian Film Festival in September 2011 and at the 2012 Reel Recovery Festival in both New York City and Los Angeles. His second play, ELYSIAN FIELDS, also developed at Celebration, was presented at the 2011 New York International Fringe Festival, where one of its ensemble was recognized with an Individual Performance award. On the strength of these two plays, Chris was chosen as an award recipient by the Robert Chesley Foundation, which supports the work of LGBT playwrights.
Chris's third play, PIECES -- which first introduced the characters of Rory Dennis and Mary Hamilton -- was presented for a sold-out workshop run in Los Angeles during the spring of 2012 before hitting the 2012 New York International Fringe Festival, winning the award for Overall Excellence in Playwriting. Following the festival, PIECES returned for the Fringe Encore series at New York's SoHo Playhouse. Chris is proud to report that REVOLVER will receive its world premiere as part of Celebration Theatre's 30th anniversary season in 2013.

COUNCILLORS are to be issued with new guidelines governing how they should behave following complaints one councillor was spotted playing computer games during a debate.
Worcestershire County Council is going to draw up new guidance on what is expected of members after Fran Oborski was spotted playing Solitaire on her Ipad.
However, the new rules will only apply to meetings of the full council, because they are broadcast live on the website and are the main forum for voting on important decisions, like the budget.
At a meeting to discuss the issue yesterday, fellow councillors and members of the public said it was "unacceptable" for Cllr Oborski to play Solitaire during debates.
One resident, who was invited to attend the meeting to give his views, said it "almost" brought the council into disrepute and said no councillor should be playing games while debates are taking place.
The fresh guidance will now be drawn up by the council's legal chief Simon Mallinson and is expected to be published in July.
Your Worcester News revealed in March how Cllr Oborski, a Liberal, was spotted playing Solitaire on her iPad at a full council meeting.
It was the third time in one year that we had highlighted it, and it was later reported in satirical magazine Private Eye.
On one occasion a member of the public sat behind her at a meeting took a photo of her playing the game.
After a complaint was made to Worcestershire County Council the standards and ethics committee met yesterday yesterday to discuss it.
Councillor Stephen Peters said: "I think all of us would agree it's not acceptable to be playing games in a meeting.
"The message needs to go out to all members of the council that it's unacceptable, and the perception it sends to constituents and residents, as well as the perception it sends out of the way the whole council is operating."
Councillor Joe Baker said: "Would you see Tesco staff playing on their mobile phone while they are on a check-out, or someone in hospital doing the same when they are with a patient? I don't think so.
"Everyone in the council chamber should be focusing on the business at hand.
"There clearly needs to be stricter guidelines."
Dr Murray Mylechreest, a member of the public who sits on the panel, said: "The public will think 'we've elected them, they are voting on matters of concern', to me if they are playing games it almost brings the council's position into disrepute."
Councillor Ken Pollock appealed for councillors to be "realistic", saying MPs in the commons do not always focus completely on the matter they are debating.
He said it shouldn't always be regarded as disrespectful, pointing to the days when MPs were using pagers, technology which is now long redundant.
Councillor Anne Hingley, the chair, said: "What is clear from this debate is that we need to be more prescriptive."
The committee agreed to allow Mr Mallinson to draw up new guidelines, which are expected to focus on full council meetings only.
After the meeting Cllr Oborski said: "Solitaire is my screen saver so when it freezes it's always there, that was my problem.
"People are capable of multi-tasking but I do agree there needs to be guidance."
She said "without naming names" other councillors and officers had emailed her during council meetings, on topics not relevant to what was being debated.
It has been decided no further action should be taken against Cllr Oborski.

Fresh Member
So I had the opportunity to attend the Chris Jericho Spoken Word show at The Garage, London this past weekend and thought I'd share my feelings on a fantastic show especially for those who didn't go and were curious as to what took place.
It was advertised as 'Rockstars Say The Funniest Things' so it was unclear how much of the show was going to be about Jerichos' wrestling career
The breaking news of Jerichos suspension is both unfortunate for the WWE and sad for us fans. Although the desecration of any nations flag should be considered the most offensive cheap heat a wrestler can get lets put this into a bit of perspective. From the footage I've seen of the event Jericho grabs the flag from Punk, crumples it up and then kicks it out of the ring. When you compare that to
Hi all,
There's a new word being touted around the WWE Universe (apart from YES!) and that's Legitimacy. Since Brocks return a couple of weeks ago there have been references from both him Cena and Laurinaitis as well as countless references from the announcers so it's clear that this is something the WWE want us to take note of as something different post Cena/Rock.
I've read and listened
Hi all,
For this blog I thought I'd look at the biggest member or any wrestling companies roster…the audience. And a hot live audience is to me the key to strong ratings and over performers.
There is the argument that a crowd varies from city to city and from country to country (Although International shows are always going to look strong as the crowd see the shows live
Hi all,
Time for one final pre Mania blog.
I'm not going to give any Wrestlemania predictions, I'll be honest I'm not a fan of those kind of blogs. Each person has an opinion of how they would like a match to be booked from the simplest endings to the kind that wouldn't even happen in a million years and I don't know who'd be interested in hearing mine.

If you are a registered Whistle user like myself, thn you probably already received this email that they are limiting the calls to 20 minutes in length for the free users. After that, there is a small per minute fee. This does not affect me at all, as I do not use it for that long, at least right now anyway.
If you are not a Whistle user, I suggest trying this app out. I'm not a hardcore user of it, but I do take advatage of free calls, especially for long distance in the US.

This note analyses the impact of an increase in the minimum wage in France on the overall wage distribution for the period 2007 to 2012. It is based on EU Statistics on Income and Living Conditions, a unique source that contains detailed information on income, poverty, social exclusion and living conditions.
This paper analyses the individual and socio-demographic factors behind the low employment rate of refugees compared to individuals born in the EU but also compared to other migrants. It complements the 2016 Employment and Social Developments Review where a chapter was dedicated to the labour market and social integration of refugees in the EU.
Coverage, or the capacity to reach persons in need, is an important element of the effectiveness of social protection schemes. This paper deals with the measurement of coverage rates for income support schemes aimed at replacing the lack of primary income for the working age population, focusing on unemployment benefits and minimum income support.
The Labour Market and Wage Developments in Europe report analyses the labour market from a macroeconomic perspective. It provides an analysis of recent employment and wage developments, looking at the euro area and the EU as a whole in comparison with its global trading partners. The 2016 edition shows that job creation continued to progress in 2015 and 2016 and analyses the reasons behind this improvement. The report also focuses on the macroeconomic implications of statutory minimum wages in the EU and surveys the institutional minimum wage setting mechanisms in place in EU Member States.
The aim of this study is to allow the Commission to update the calibration and further operationalize the existing Labour Market Model. This model has been set up by external experts in order to improve the European Commission's understanding of transmission mechanisms of labour market policies in the context of the European Employment Strategy. The Labour Market Model is used to provide a theoretical and empirical basis for identifying the possible direction and intensity of the effects of labour market policies. It uses actual economic data to estimate how an economy might react to changes in labour market policies or other policy reforms or external factor.

The Campbellsburg and Pendleton exits on Interstate 71 have a lot of untapped potential to bring in commerce, but those interchanges still don't have all the infrastructure companies look for when building in a new location, according to those familiar with development issues.

The city of New Castle is one step closer to its goal of funding a major sewer and water project that will keep the municipality in compliance with its permit requirements and prevent any additional fines from the Division of Water.
The city recently learned its loan for $445,000 had been approved by the Kentucky Infrastructure Authority (KIA), an agency that administers low interest loans for the construction, improvement and acquisition of sanitary sewer and water facilities and other types of infrastructure.
Those who wish to celebrate in the true spirit of the Christmas season can find a special touch in Bethlehem.
Two of Henry County's most faithfully kept holiday traditions continue to have a place in the otherwise quiet community — the live nativity and the special manger scene postmark from the local U.S. Postal Service office.
The Christmas season creates extra demand on the USPS as a matter of course and at the same time highlights the village that shares its name with the birthplace of Jesus Christ.
Two people are facing multiple charges after Henry County Sheriff's deputies found evidence of a meth lab in their home last Friday afternoon.
Following an anonymous tip reporting possible meth making and drug use, Henry County Sheriff's Deputies Kyle Stewart and Chase Dewitt arrived at the home at 5454 Harpers Ferry Road in Lockport Dec. 2 at 1 p.m.
A Campbellsburg man has assisted a vastly overscheduled Santa Claus with his personal appearances locally during the Christmas season since the late 1980s.
Though Jamie Payton has lived in the same city — in fact, on the same property as he grew up on — his whole life and he can count the months he's been away on one hand, he's still pretty tight with Santa and the rest of the elves stationed at the North Pole.
A distraught father approached the bench in Henry County Circuit Court last Thursday.
"Them boys made a bad decision that night," Robert Trask, Michael Trask's father, said. "I already lost one son, and I'm set to lose another one."
Robert Trask pleaded with Judge Diana Wheeler, who was sitting in for Judge Karen Conrad, to release his son from jail and into his care.
Some Henry County history could last another 200 years after being spruced up through a Kentucky Department for Libraries and Archives, Local Records Branch grant, according to County Clerk Shanda Archer.
The $21,335 in state funds paid Peelers and Sons bookbinders from Bonham, Texas, for removing the acid from fiscal court order book pages dating back as far as 1839 and marriage records from 1901 to 1924, removing the mold, slipping each page into plastic sleeves and rebinding the pages.

New For 2013
The Yukon adds two things for 2013: available champagne silver metallic paint and automatic downhill engine braking.
The GMC Yukon is an old-fashioned sport-utility that's built on the same rugged platform as the Sierra pickup, and yet it has all the conveniences of a modern vehicle. The Yukon delivers serious towing and hauling ability, seating for up to nine, and a handsome, boxy look that reminds other drivers that you're doing important work, even on your morning commute. The Yukon is available with 5.3- and 6.2-liter gasoline V-8 engines, the latter of which has enough muscle to tow 8500 pounds but is not exactly a fuel sipper. A third option, a 6.0-liter V-8/electric-hybrid powerplant aimed at improving fuel economy, is also available. Although it doesn't add anything in the way of hauling or towing capacity, it does return an extra 3 to 6 mpg. That might not sound like much, but it figures out to a twenty-percent increase, which isn't bad for such a large vehicle. Third-row bench seats are standard on all models, and the first and second rows can be configured to seat either two or three people. The stylish Denali model offers a host of luxury-car equipment, including a blind-spot-detection system; a heated, power-adjustable steering wheel; twenty-inch wheels; ultrasonic rear parking assist; a remote start system; and an auto-dimming rearview mirror.
Front and side curtain air bags, ABS, traction and stability control, and a tire-pressure monitoring system are standard.
You'll like:
- Room for cargo
- Room for passengers
- Lots of towing power
You won't like:
- Thirsty for fuel
- A bit of a relic
Key Competitors For The 2013 GMC Yukon
- Ford Expedition
- Honda Pilot
- Nissan Armada
- Toyota Sequoia
Sum Up
Part pickup truck, part old-school station wagon, all SUV.

Jamelle Watson-Daniels
Brown University
My name is Jamelle Watson-Daniels from Collinsville, Illinois. My way of dealing with life struggles was drowning all of my problems out with academics. When I walk into a room, I instantly begin identifying objects, which directly apply forces on one another and then I think about how much torque must be exerted on one of these objects to tip it over. In my relationships, I evaluate the person's potential energy in comparison to his/her present kinetic energy all in reference to the human journey in life being an oscillating spring. So, as I relate real life to the world of physics, things just make more sense. Now, I attend Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island where I am studying physics. Eventually I will gain enough skills to add value to the world of science and be a major addition to the world of physics as we know it.

Researchers collected information on nutrition and health habits from 38,094 adult men and women who were 20 to 70 years old and free of diabetes at the beginning of the study. The researchers classified participants according to the amount of vitamin K in their diet.
After following this group of men and women for just over ten years, and taking into account other factors that may affect diabetes risk, such as family history, obesity, physical activity levels, and smoking, the study revealed the following:
In summary, people who ate more of both forms of the vitamin—K1 and K2—had lower risk of type 2 diabetes.
Many people don't get enough vitamin K1, the type found in green leafy vegetables. This isn't surprising given how few of us eat the recommended 5 to 9 servings of vegetables and fruit each day. Use the following tips and tricks to make sure you get all the K you need:

Cosart among NL's best starters in August
ATLANTA -- You'd be hard pressed to find a starter in the National League better than Jarred Cosart in the month of August.
Cosart made the final arguments as to why he should be the NL Pitcher of the Month in Miami's 4-0 victory over the Braves on Saturday night at Turner Field.
The 24-year-old right-hander threw seven-plus shutout innings, improving his overall mark in August to 3-1 with a 1.64 ERA. His three wins were over strong playoff contenders -- the Cardinals, Angels and Braves. His last two wins were on the road.
What's separating Cosart since he was acquired by the Marlins from the Astros on July 31?
"He's got a good fastball, and makes the ball cut a little bit," manager Mike Redmond said. "He's got a nice curveball. He's been able to mix it up, and his changeup will continue to be a weapon against lefties."
Cosart credits Miami pitching coach Chuck Hernandez. When the right-hander was drafted by the Phillies in the 38th round in 2008, Hernandez was a pitching instructor in the organization. They spent a half-season together.
Since the trade, Cosart has tightened up his mechanics, specifically keeping his left shoulder closed.
According to Fangraphs.com, Cosart is throwing his four-seam fastball 39.6 percent of the time, and his cut-fastball 26.7 percent. His curveball is being used 26.1 percent and he's developing a changeup (3.9 percent).
Actually, Cosart doesn't classify himself as throwing a cutter.
"My four-seam grip is basically a cutter," he said.
So he basically has a hybrid four-seam/cutter pitch.
"All those pitches will continue to get better as he logs more and more innings," Redmond said.
They've certainly been effective in August.
Cosart will have competition in his quest to be NL Pitcher of the Month. Madison Bumgarner of the Giants is 3-1 with a 1.58 ERA. That's the only ERA lower than Cosart's among NL starters in August.
Kyle Hendricks of the Cubs is 4-0 (1.69) and Clayton Kershaw of the Dodgers is 3-1 (1.80).

oh well this is not going well anyway so here is what really happened, (and trust me, i will agree with all people who say i did it on purpose);
in reply to solozzo's last post that he had not edited his post, i was trying to copy a post from the admin forum, made you ChicagoJ in which he also stated that it was changed on 11-9-2012 (the date of ChicagoJ's post) however, it ended up on the thread but as 1st post, so i removed it, unaware that since it had now de facto become the 1st post (how that is possible is well beyond me so dont ask) it's removal would lead to thread removal, which happened, of course that is irreversible as there is no backup of the thread limited resources make that i dont run a daily or hourly backup of the forum but a weekly, which has not ran but does run today as it did last week (3163522893 2014-03-03 17:02 pdbackup.sql) but as you see it is sizeable (3Gb for a dump)
so i lost the thread, big deal yes, but as they say, stuff happens. and whlist i am sorry, please feel free to rehash or regurgitate, or just continue like it is still here.
I am very sorry but there is nothing i can do to make it right and well those who believe me do, those who don't don't.
Sometimes i wonder why people are even paying for VB software, as to be honest, a not losing this until cache is dumped is not to much to ask for but it has not changed in VB since 2002 i am told by VB.
Since the thread does not exist in the backup i can not reload the data that exists still in cache and in the database, but has lost its headers back into the forum, had the header existed in there there would be a (very difficult) way of recovery.
to keep the conversation going, sollozzo you lost part of your memory, see the remarks by ChicagoJ and...(i will add that in once i carefully copy & pasted it away from the forum)

This guy is athletic and IMO could start RT day one. 2b - J.Taylor CB - We need a corner. Fits what Coyle likes, a guy who can be physical and defend the run if needed (no wonder we wont franchise S.Smith). 3a - Da'Rick Rogers WR - I would double up at WR. Philbin has previously said he does not want no.1 but options. So I would double up with 2 different types. 3b - Cobi Hamilton WR - Alternative option and again IMO he has a high ceiling, much like Rogers.
