OK so I have a simple fare I have to compute. There is a start zone and an end zone. There are 3 separate zones so 9 different charges. Plus there are charges for minutes too 0-4, 4-10, 10-20 and 20 to no limit. The user will input 3 parameters the start and end zone and the time. This would be a JS file. HELP
I am just trying to see how to start this and I know I need nested if then statements.
Will it always be only 3 inputs that are made?Will a form that consists of only a start, end, and time fields (as well as possibly a result area) be enough?Can you provide an example of how the start/end zone will be used to calculate the fare.
There is no 'nested if then' statement in javascript.
He may not know the correct words with which to impart that which he is meaning.
yes sorry i meant nested if else statements.
Example would be start 1 end 1 and 10 minutes or start 1 end 2 and 5 minutes would be your inputs.
What effect do the zones have on the charges, and how do the minutes factor in to things?
each example of a start and end has a price. time is split into 15 minute intervals and increase in price. so 1 to 1 is $5 and 14 minutes is $5 so your fare is $10
So when going from zone 1 to zone 2 you add up both the charges for each zone plus the minutes?
What about when going from zone 1 to 3? Do you add all three zone charges together for that?
What I envisage is to use a config array, so that you can easily control how the prices are charged:
zoneCharge: [0, 5, 10, 15],
timeGroups: [4, 10, 20, 999],
timeCharge: [2, 3, 5, 8]
With zoneCharge, zone 1 is $5, zone 2 is $10, and so on.With timeGroups, that's the number of minutes before which the appropriate charge is addedAnd with timeCharge, that's the cost at the appropriate number of minutes.
So with the 14 minutes being less than 20, a charge of $5 applies for that.
I already have a working sample of the form. The purpose of these questions is to narrow down on how you intend for it to be used.
<form id="taxiFare">

Start: <input name="start">

End: <input name="end">

Minutes: <input name="minutes">

<input type="submit">

var form = document.getElementById('taxiFare'),
result = document.getElementById('fareprice');
form.onsubmit = calculateFare(result, {
zoneCharge: [0, 5, 10, 15],
timeGroups: [4, 10, 20, 999],
timeCharge: [2, 3, 5, 8]
function calculateFare(fare, config) {
function zoneCharge(start, end) {
var min = Math.min(start, end),
max = Math.max(start, end),
cost = 0;
for (i = min; i <= max; i += 1) {
cost += config.zoneCharge[i];
return cost;
function minutesCharge(minutes) {
var i,
for (i = 0; i < config.timeGroups.length; i += 1) {
if (minutes < config.timeGroups[i]) {
cost = config.timeCharge[i];
return cost;
function update(fare, cost) {
while (fare.hasChildNodes()) {
fare.appendChild(document.createTextNode('Fare: $' + cost.toFixed(2)));
return function () {
var form = this,
start = Number(form.elements.start.value) || 0,
end = Number(form.elements.end.value) || 0,
minutes = Number(form.elements.minutes.value) || 0,
total = 0;
total += zoneCharge(start, end);
total += minutesCharge(minutes);
update(fare, total);
return false;
sorry you have 3 zones. you ask the user for a start and an end zone. there are only 3 zones. so they start in 1 and end in 2 and that is a price. you start in 2 and end in 3 and that is a price. So there are 9 total choices. Then you have to ask the user for the amount of time it took and that is broken into 15 minute increments.
That seems to differ from what was initially stated.0-4, 4-10, 10-20 and 20 to no limit
When you have the specs nailed down, we can then advise you on the most appropriate techniques to use.

On cheesesteaks, ketchup, liberty and The Karate Kid
I'll never forget where I was when I learned the "Subway sandwich artist" title was summarily relegated to the past section of Lawrence Ordone's curriculum vitae.
I was on my couch in East Falls watching The Karate Kid. At the time, Daniel LaRusso was cruising through the opening rounds of the All Valley Karate Tournament. It was then that word came over the transom of a tiff that Ordone, of Orange County, Fla., had with customer Luis Martinez.
Said beef was described as such: "'He wants ketchup on the Philly cheese steak and I have never put — we don't even have ketchup at Subway — I've never put ketchup on anybody's sandwich,' said Ordone."
Words were exchanged, "fight me like a man" threats leveled, suggestions of Martinez going to buy his own darn ketchup were offered and a job was lost.
I'd read the story twice by the time LaRusso's leg was swept, and five or six times by the time the underdog crane-kicked his way to victory and legend.
Yet there I was on the couch neither disturbed by the All Valley cheap shot nor inspired by the redemptive result.
No. I was furious because someone had the gall — a Floridian, no less — to question why someone would put ketchup on a cheesesteak knock-off from a cardboard-cutter "deli."
This, because ketchup is not just a condiment when it comes to the Philadelphia delicacy. It is a necessary ingredient, a topper of a yin to the fried-onion yang.
Some may disagree.
Those tastebud-challenged people are offensively misguided.
First of all, no self-respecting lifelong Philadelphian — or, in my case, having grown up within eyeshot of the PSFS sign — would ever, ever, evereverever hold a chain-store creation up as the culinary standard
One needn't look any further than a 2003 taste-test that I and others conducted for the City Paper.
We sampled the McDonald's "McPhilly Cheesesteak," the Arby's "Philly Beef and Swiss," the Domino's "Philly Cheesesteak Pizza" and the Quizzno's "Philly Cheesesteak." In the story, headlined "Blech!," one reviewer wrote, "This was revolting. I nearly choked trying to get it down."
Point two: While "Blech!" is not an accurate term to describe how a genuine-215-Philly-prepped cheesesteak tastes sans that savory red condiment, "incomplete" is.
You can sit there and try to explain it away as something that "totally ruins" the cheesesteak, as a Twitter friend this morning, even after I declared my "Unfollow Friday" intentions for anyone who doesn't understand these facts of life. (No, I didn't unfollow. Yes, I think less of said friend, and I hope she sees this.)
That is a toothless, phantom argument except for those who think Reese's would be well served taking the peanut butter out of their cups.
(Side note: Fine. Maybe Subway doesn't have ketchup, which is a subject for another day. The reality is this: If they're going to offer knock-off cheesesteaks, they should keep a red stash somewhere, even if hidden from customers' line of vision, if only to protect their standing as a legitimate-foodstuffs provider.)
Listen, I'm not one of those people who buy into the whole foodies-know-best delusion. We all taste things differently. But Barclay Prime's Kobe variety, most cheesesteaks are not. To put a glass case around the $4 sandwich as if you're working security in the Louvre's Mona Lisa wing is Keystone Cop-ian.
In a bad economy, it's never good to see someone lose their job. Here's hoping Ordone finds gainful employment somewhere that doesn't involve serving sustenance, as he apparently knew not what he'd stirred up. But sometimes, examples must be made.
To get all high-and-mighty like Ordone did about protecting the sanctity of an arterial foe is an affront to all that's good about America's birthplace.
It's worse than turning one's nose up (well, down) at scrapple.
It's worse than pretending the Al Alberts Show wasn't kinda creepy sometimes.
It's worse than refusing to break ranks with your Cobra Kai brethren and taking the easy way out of any endeavor.
And most of all, it's worse than making statements so patently offensive that a guy's heart can't be warmed while watching The Karate Kid on his couch.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to get myself a cheesesteak, extra ketchup, hold the attitude.

AN ANGRY father-of-two who knocked out a man because the music at a neighbouring Halloween party was too loud was lucky not to have killed his victim, a judge said.
Scott Grant, 40, whose children were sleeping in their then home on a 'rough estate', punched Berat Mjekiqi, known as Baz, who then dropped to the ground on Mere Court, Burnley.
A resident who saw the violence told police how the victim was lifted completely off his feet, landed on his back and smashed the back of his head on the road.
He said: "I heard the thud from the window as his head hit the floor. I was really concerned about Baz. People wanted to go out but were too scared."
The town's crown court heard how Mr Mjekiqi, who was in fancy dress wearing a wig, make-up, a green top and leggings, was floored when he went outside at 11pm and was talking to friends. Grant's partner was said to have approached Mr Mjekiqi and shouted at him and the defendant then hit him. A melee, not involving Grant, who may have been shocked by his actions, then continued in the street.
The hearing was told the victim needed six stitches to his cheek, 10 stitches inside his mouth, suffered cuts and grazes and was permanently scarred.
Grant was arrested but lied to police as he had been told the victim was in a coma.
Judge Beverley Lunt blamed the defendant's partner for the incident escalating.
She imposed 16 months in jail, suspended for two years, on jobless Grant of Hargrove Avenue, Padiham. The defendant admitted wounding, last November 1.
The court was told Grant had a 'very significant' record, including convictions for police assault and wounding and had been to jail.
Hugh McKee, defending, said Grant went off the rails when he was younger, but had not committed any offences of violence since 2005.
Sentencing, Judge Lunt told Grant he had struck a 'massive blow'.
She said: "If you had stayed in your home, none of this would have happened.
"You should thank your lucky stars that he didn't get killed when he hit his head on that pavement.
"You got drawn into this by the quite disgraceful conduct of other people. There are others who need to look to their behaviour and they should feel responsible. In my judgement, other people should be in that dock with you."

Every All-Star Game is heavy on highlight dunks, and this edition was no different. The NBA's best gathered in Houston for the 2013 meeting, with the usual suspects—LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Blake Griffin—taking to the air and putting on a show with the help of teammates, who were all stars in their own right.
Dwyane Wade teamed with James for one of his best dunks, Chris Paul looked for Griffin throughout the night and Durant made a solo attack on the rim after Kobe Bryant put in a tough defensive effort. But enough with the description, here are some of the best dunks from Sunday's All-Star Game, which the West was won, 143-138, over the East.

The Greenspan's Classic was back for its second year at South Gate Park in the city of South Gate, California, this past March. The 2010 show was such a success for both Greenspan's and the city of South Gate that they decided to host another show this past year and this one certainly didn't disappoint. As the primary sponsor of the event, Greenspan's was allotted a generous amount of space for the show just like the 2010 date, so the show became an invitational event for pre-1970 vehicles. Some of the invited guests included Bomb Connection car club, Classic Lowriders car club, Pharaohs South Bay, Tovars, Classic Oldies car club, and Connected car club Ventura County, as well as a number of individual car owners.
Luckily, Mother Nature was kind on the day of the show, providing a nice winter mix of clouds and sun which served as the perfect backdrop for all of the automotive eye candy at the park. From Bombs to Impalas and everything in between, there was something for every type of car lover. Classic Lowriders brought out a number of pristine club cars that attracted attention throughout the show, while the Tovars had their Chevy Bombs lying on the ground, with Classic Oldies car club following suit.
Entertainment was provided by Mike Lopez aka "The Cholo DJ" who was spinning some rare and classic oldies throughout the day. The show had vendors like Tribal Gear and Kokopelli Smoke Shop, offering everything from t-shirts to the latest in smoking accessories. Greenspan's also had a few food vendors in the show area, in case people were looking for a bite to eat or a cold drink.
For the second year in a row, Greenspan's and the city of South Gate produced a great show with incredible cars, people, and atmosphere. Next year's event should be as equally enjoyable and hopefully the car count will increase yet again. Who knows, maybe the city of South Gate will once again allow the legendary Azalea Car Show to take place. One can only hope.

"Phalanx is a self-perpetuating, non-secret, Senior organization, formed at the Institute in 1912 for the purpose of fostering and keeping alive Rensselaer spirit and tradition among the student body." Each spring, during a baseball game or track meet, members of the Phalanx "tapped" men to become new members. As "Taps" played, the current members of the society would line up on the '86 Field in the ancient Phalanx formation. At this point, a member would outline the history and purposes of the society. The Phalanx men then approached the audience of students to tap the new members. When the tapping was completed, members and initiates formed the Phalanx and marched from the field. [The Polytechnic, May 23, 1929] Men were chosen for membership based on participation in student activities and "unselfish interest in the advancement of the school." A maximum of fifteen men could be chosen each year. Any graduate or person connected with the Institute "who has increased the welfare of the Institute by her or his personal activity" could also be elected to the society. A White Key society for sophomores was formed in 1937.
In 1971, membership was opened to student leaders from all classes including graduate students and the maximum membership restriction was abolished. Tapping took place during home hockey games from 1974 to 1982 in an attempt to publicize the society. By 1983, the tapping, initiation ceremony and dinner were combined into one event. From then on juniors, seniors and graduate students could be nominated to the society.

Last Updated on 29 Sept. 2014, Company: Symantec
Symantec Backup Exec 11d for Windows Servers provides granular protection for a wide variety of applications including Microsoft SQL and Exchange with key agents.
Symantec Backup Exec Agent for Exchange Server - A technology to protect vital Exchange Server 5.5, 2000 and 2003 data while the application is online. This agent provides full or incremental, or differential backup and restore of embedded objects, attributes, and all Outlook components. Restore can automatically mount the Exchange database upon completion of a restore job, which ensures a valid database is brought back online quickly. Use of the Single Instance Storage feature eliminates backup of duplicate information by storing only the first instance of attachments distributed to multiple mailboxes.
For Microsoft Windows Exchange 2003 Server support, the mailbox or message level restores from a full traditional backup does not require installation of a separate Exchange 2003 server. When running on Microsoft Windows Server 2003, the Backup Exec Agent for Exchange Server has added support for Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 Volume Snapshot (VSS) technology enabling the user to select either the VERITAS or the Microsoft proprietary frozen image technology for protecting open files. The agent provides the ability to perform consistency check before backup when using Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy Service.
Poor poor poor
Ok if you are only backing up small servers in a basic environment, but try and use it in any real world setup and it's weaknesses become all too apparent. Product is full of bugs, support is ridiculously poor. OK if you want to spend ages trying to force it to work with exchange and putting security holes all over the place. Version 10d though is a great improvement over version 9.x but still a long way to go.
If you backing up exchange....look elsewhere
Backup Exec - The worst product ever!!!
I will never recommend Veritas products to anyone. My experience with them and their software is terrible. They have the worst documentations for their products. Keep away and save your aggravation !!!
Veritas Sucks
It is the worst!!!! Most over-rated program on the planet!!! It never works with windows drivers, and sometime even with its own. The supposedly "GOLD" product support that you wait on hold for 2+ hours for and pay over $1000.00 dollars for is the ice breaker I will never by nor use another veritas product as long as I live. This is the most problems I have ever experienced I can get micrsoft's backup to work for now.
Depends on size of your server farm
We have 180 servers and we find it buggy. If you have a server farm as large as ours, find a "lights out" product.
Veritas Backup Exec for Windows
Has been a reliable companion for 2+ years in 3-server LAN. Flexible scheduling, Exchange Server and SQL database accommodations, Remote Agents, Open File options, choice of folder/tape media, virus scanning, easy interface. Quick to install. Good tech support.
Backup Exec
Brilliant Software! You can't go wrong with it, start and stop backup services without server having to go down with it. I highly recommend it.
Don't let the price listed scare you..this is available in a variety of forms even an affordable small bus option.
It is particularly better than the built in back in 200 srv (which is a cut down version!)..with exchange the abilty to restore a single email, or mailbox rather than the entire database is a huge saving.
And, although not recommended..the data recovery option will work for a full server upgrade..backup, then restore onto a new, more powerful box, very easily.

TPW Commission Approves Public Hunting in 42 State Parks
AUSTIN, Texas — One-third of Texas state parks will allow public hunts for the 2006-07 hunting season, as approved by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Commission at its May 24-25 public meeting.
Most of the state parks approved for public hunting will be offered through the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department's computer drawings for a variety of game and hunting options, including new youth opportunities. New categories include youth-only deer management and youth-only exotic hunts.
To minimize conflicts between park user groups, public hunts are offered during off-peak visitation periods, typically on weekdays in the winter months. A number of youth hunts are scheduled during school holidays. During these events, signs are posted at parks alerting visitors that a hunt is in progress.
The public is urged to contact the park or check the hunting calendar posted online before heading out during hunting season.
The 42 state parks where public hunts will take place are: Abilene, Atlanta; Big Bend Ranch; Brazos Bend; Caprock Canyons; Choke Canyon - North Shore Unit; Colorado Bend; Cooper Lake - South Sulphur Unit; Copper Breaks; Davis Mountains; Devil's River; Devil's Sinkhole; Enchanted Rock; Fairfield Lake; Fort Boggy; Garner; Guadalupe River; Guadalupe River North Unit; Hill Country; Honey Creek; Huntsville; Inks Lake/Longhorn Caverns; Kickapoo Caverns; Lake Bob Sandlin; Lake Brownwood; Lake Mineral Wells; Lake Somerville Birch Creek and Nails Creek; Lake Whitney; Lost Maples; Mother Neff prairie area; Pedernales Falls; Pedernales Falls Annex; Possum Kingdom; Purtis Creek; Resaca de la Palma; San Angelo; Sea Rim; Seminole Canyon; South Llano; Tony Houseman and Tyler.
Applications for special drawing hunts to be conducted on state parks, wildlife management areas and other TPWD-managed properties during the 2006-07 season will be available in early July from TPWD headquarters and field offices, and posted on the TPWD Web site. Each hunt's application fee ranges from $3 to $10 for adults and is free to youth, who must be accompanied by an adult hunter.
Deadlines to apply for TPWD public hunts are as follows:
Alligator, Archery Alligator, Youth Only Alligator - August 2, 2006
Prong-horned Antelope - August 17, 2006
Archery Deer, Archery Exotic - August 17, 2006
Guided Bighorn Sheep Hunt - August 31, 2006
Private Lands Management Either Sex, Private Lands Antlerless/Spike- September 7, 2006
Gun Deer (Either-Sex, Antlerless/Spike, Youth Only Either Sex, Youth Only Antlerless/Spike, Management Buck, and Youth Only Management) - September 7, 2006
Javelina, Youth Only Javelina, Guided Waterbuck, and Guided Deer Hunt Packages - October 5, 2006
Exotic Only, Feral Hog, Youth Only Exotic and Youth Only Feral Hog - November 1, 2006
Youth Only Spring Turkey, Spring Turkey, Guided Scimitar-Horned Oryx Hunt Package, Guided Gemsbok, and Guided Antelope Hunt Packages - December 5, 2006
Many parks will also provide hunting opportunities as part of the department's Annual Public Hunting Permit program, which offers purchasers of the $48 permit hunting access to more than one million acres throughout the state.
Among the hunting opportunities available to permit holders are more than 100 separate dove-hunting units covering more than 60,000 acres. Many of these hunting sites are within close proximity to major urban areas. The permit also provides access to hunting for other species, including deer, waterfowl and small game.
The permit is available for the 2006-2007 season on Aug. 15, 2006. Permits can be purchased wherever hunting and fishing licenses are sold and from TPWD law enforcement offices.
A map booklet detailing the public hunting sites is mailed to permit holders within two weeks of purchase or can be obtained directly if the permit is obtained from a TPWD law enforcement office. Map booklets can also be viewed on the department's Web sites.
Public hunt applications booklets will be available at TPWD law enforcement offices, state parks and wildlife management areas in July. Information about the drawings for hunts by special permits can be obtained by calling (800) 792-1112 or online.

Description of Incident:
Broward Sheriff's Office homicide detectives arrested a third suspect involved in the shooting death of a man on I-95 on May 5, 2013.
Investigators obtained warrants for Ronel Desinor and Michael Depre for their involvement in the death, though their specific roles are not being revealed. Depre surrendered himself to authorities on July 22, at the Broward County Judicial Complex. Desinor was taken into custody Monday, June 24, at a friend's house in North Lauderdale without incident. Scott Simon, described as being the master mind behind the murder, was arrested the night of May 21. All three men are charged with first-degree murder.

I think he could be ready by 2014, and could possibly take over for Phillips if he's extended until 2015. He'll be in the mix with the many MI. I remember hearing some good things about his hitting, and think he could go the Chris Valaika / Todd Frazier route more likely than Greene or Lohman or Puckett. Remember Valaika was minor leaguer of the year a while back, so he was on a good pace. Just picking from the gut on this one. Haven't picked in a while.

Laurier Student, Sheri Longboat, successfully completes dissertation on First Nations Water Security
Apr 23/13
Melissa Ireland, Aboriginal Student Support Coordinator (WATERLOO CAMPUS) | email@example.com
Dr. Sheri Longboat | firstname.lastname@example.com
The Office of Aboriginal Initiatives congratulates Dr. Sheri Longboat on the successful completion of her PhD and dissertation entitled, First Nation Water Security and Collaborative Governance: Chippewas of Kettle and Stony Point First Nation, Ontario, Canada through the Department of Geography and Environmental Studies at Wilfrid Laurier University.
Not only is the scholarship exemplary, but extremely timely as Dr. Longboats PhD thesis focuses on water security in First Nation communities, and investigates the relationship between First Nations and Western approaches to water, and the opportunities and barriers to collaboration in water governance.
Sheri Longboat, a member of Six Nations of the Grand River, and has previously worked in her community focusing on community-based education and training, and geomatics implementation to support land and resource management.
For her doctoral work, Sheri has conducted research with the Chippewas of Kettle and Stony Point First Nation community and looked at water security from a First Nations perspective, and a within a broader water governance context. This research enhances First Nations water security through the investigation of the interrelationships between First Nations and Western approaches to water, and the opportunities and barriers to collaboration in water governance.
Sheris research offers valuable contributions to water security and governance, as well as critical dimensions and components to water security in First Nations communities. Additionally, Dr. Longboat makes recommendations concerning on how to tackle water security and governance issues in First Nation communities by incorporating indigenous approaches into action plans and governance models.
Achievement of water security must involve bridging elements of modern technical approaches with traditional indigenous ways. Dr. Longboat's work examines how First Nations people have an inherent responsibility to protect the land and the water they reside on and hold strong beliefs that water must be sustained for future generations to come. There are concerns that future generations of First Nations people might not have water left to protect due to a growing crisis of water insecurity in First Nation communities. Currently, nearly one in six First Nations communities suffers from microbiological or chemical water contamination, and are unable to access sufficient quantities of quality water to serve their most basic human needs.
From this view, Dr. Longboat's work suggests that the path to water security involves addressing technical problems, but as well the broader range of social, political and economic challenges that constrain First Nations from exercising inherent rights. Restoring the traditional forms of social-political governance removed through colonization and the Indian Act is seen as an essential step.

This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Right. Reggie won playoff games and series with more regularity than players that were better than him. Those playoff wins were team accomplishments, not individual accomplishments. Just as Russell's championships don't make him a better player than Wilt just because Russell had a better supporting cast of HoFers. Reggie had longevity and playoff wins and thus he's remembered more favorably than players that were better than him. That's why I think top-ten is appopriate but not top-three or top-five.

CRADLEY Town owner Trevor Thomas wants the Hammers to put a difficult few weeks behind them.
The team, which has not won in five games, is currently being run by Ian Broad after manager Nigel Birch stepped down.
Their winless run continued last Saturday when they lost 2-1 away to Smethwick Rangers.
Former manager Duane Darby will now return to the club's hot seat next season as his replacement.
Birch announced three weeks ago that that he was going to leave the club at the end of the current campaign. However, he resigned earlier than planned and left assistant Broad to take charge for the last few games.
Thomas now wants Cradley to finish the season well. He said: "It has been a difficult few weeks for the club but we are pleased that Duane will take charge next season. The main thing now is that the players enjoy playing together for the final games. It would be good if we could finish on a high even though we don't have much to play for."
Thomas also said that Darby has had scouts watching Cradley's games and gets regular updates as he prepares for the 2014/15 campaign.
Town will now play Wolverhampton Sporting Community this Saturday before travelling to take on Dudley Town on Monday.

Weaver keeps Adenhart in his thoughts
SEATTLE -- Nick Adenhart is constantly on Jered Weaver's mind. He doesn't need to look at his son, named after the late Angels pitcher, or wait on the five-year anniversary of Adenhart's tragic car accident to remember him.
"He's one of those guys that you'll never forget; you'll never want to not remember the way he was," said Weaver, who engraves Adenhart's initials on the back of the mound before every start. "He was a great kid, man. Fun. He just wanted to be around everybody, and he loved playing baseball. And he was one of the guys. It's tough."
Wednesday will mark five years since 22-year-old Adenhart, 20-year-old Courtney Stewart and 25-year-old Henry Pearson were killed in a car accident by a drunk driver hours after Adenhart threw six scoreless innings against the A's in his 2008 debut. A fourth passenger, Jon Wilhite, sustained critical injuries.
"He definitely had a bright future, that's for sure," Weaver said. "I think we saw what he was capable of doing in that last start against Oakland. He just started figuring it out."
Every spring for the past few years, one of the Angels' young pitchers makes his way around the clubhouse to collect money for the Nick Adenhart Memorial Fund, which provides financial support to non-profit youth baseball organizations. Most times they're able to collect somewhere between $7,000 and $9,000. This year, with Michael Morin doing the collecting, the Angels gathered somewhere between $10,000 and $12,000.
On July 5, Weaver named his son and first child Aden to honor Adenhart.
He'll wait for his son to ask before telling him about the significance of his name.
"If not, definitely high school or something like that," Weaver said. "He'll get the idea, maybe talking with his classmates or something. It'll come out eventually."

2014 Honorary Bat Girl contest winners will be recognized Sunday
CINCINNATI (May 6, 2014) - Major League Baseball has announced the 31 winners of the 2014 Honorary Bat Girl Contest that recognizes baseball fans who have been affected by breast cancer and demonstrate a commitment to eradicating the disease.
The winners for the Cincinnati Reds are Mike Shroder and Patty Stump of Mason, who will be recognized during on-field pregame ceremonies Sunday, May 11 (Reds vs. Colorado Rockies, 1:10 p.m.) at Great American Ball Park. They will receive complimentary game tickets for their family, commemorative Reds jerseys and pink wrist bands.
Mike and Patty were nominated by Josie Shuler, the winner of the 2013 Honorary Bat Girl contest. Here is an excerpt from the winning submission to HonoraryBatGirl.com:
Mike and Patty are both breast cancer survivors, a rarity in the medical world according to the UC Cancer Institute and American Cancer Society. In 2006, Mike was diagnosed with breast cancer and beat it. Then a year and a half later, Patti received a breast cancer diagnosis. After four years cancer free, Patty was diagnosed with cancer once again, but she fought it. Mike and Patty both continue to fight the disease through fundraising and volunteerism for Susan G. Komen Foundation.
Fans from across the country and Canada shared inspirational stories that provide hope and motivation in the fight against breast cancer, as well as the reasons they or their nominees should represent their favorite team.
The Honorary Bat Girl winners were selected by fan votes on HonoraryBatGirl.com along with feedback from a Guest Judging Panel that included Evan Longoria of the Tampa Bay Rays, Freddie Freeman of the Atlanta Braves, Pablo Sandoval of the San Francisco Giants, country music superstar and Atlanta Braves fan Jason Aldean, and Sam Ryan, MLB Network host and reporter.
Players and on-field personnel will wear the symbolic pink ribbon on their uniforms along with pink wrist bands. Commemorative base jewels and dugout lineup cards will also be pink. Games will use a pink stitched Rawlings baseball, the official ball of MLB, as the official game day baseball. Numerous MLB players will use pink bats and pink Louisville Slugger bats, the Official Bat of Major League Baseball, will be stamped with the MLB breast cancer awareness logo. Many of the game-used Louisville Slugger pink bats from Mother's Day games that have been authenticated by MLB will be auctioned exclusively on MLB.com to benefit the fight against breast cancer.
The Honorary Bat Girl program was introduced in 2009 to raise additional awareness and support for the annual "Going to Bat Against Breast Cancer" initiative celebrated on Mother's Day. In five years, thousands of unique testimonials have been submitted and more than 4 million fan votes have been cast. Going to Bat Against Breast Cancer is a Major League Baseball initiative supported by its charitable partners Stand Up To Cancer and Susan G. Komen. This initiative raises awareness about the breast cancer cause, while also raising funds to support breast cancer research.

The Sealing Ordinance Links Families Eternally09609_000_006
While on earth, we can make sacred covenants (promises) with God in the holy temple through priesthood authority. Among these covenants is the opportunity for husbands and wives to be sealed (married for eternity) and their children to be sealed to them. This means that if we keep our covenants with the Lord and each other, death cannot permanently separate us. This sealing ordinance is an essential part of our Heavenly Father's plan for us to live with Him eternally. (See D&C 128:9–10; 132:19.)
Once we have made temple covenants for ourselves, we can gather our family history and perform temple ordinances for our deceased ancestors. This makes temple covenants available to them (see D&C 138:29–37).
The priesthood power to seal families was prophesied anciently (see Malachi 4:5–6) and in modern times (see D&C 2). Both prophecies revealed that the prophet Elijah "shall plant in the hearts of the children the promises made to the fathers, and the hearts of the children shall turn to their fathers" (D&C 2:2).
Elijah's promised return was fulfilled on April 3, 1836, in the newly dedicated Kirtland Temple in Ohio, USA, when Elijah among others appeared and gave his priesthood keys to the Prophet Joseph Smith (see D&C 110:13–15).
Currently, there are 134 temples in operation throughout the world, where worthy Latter-day Saints can make covenants with God and be sealed as families for eternity. They can return to serve as proxies for their deceased ancestors, thus fulfilling the prophecy that the hearts of the children will be turned to the fathers.
We must receive certain covenants and ordinances in order to return to live with our Heavenly Father:
We are baptized and confirmed (see Matthew 3:16–17; John 3:5; 2 Nephi 31:5–18).
Men receive the Aaronic Priesthood and later the Melchizedek Priesthood (see D&C 128:11).
In the temple we make additional covenants associated with the endowment.
Husbands and wives are sealed (married) in the temple for time and all eternity.
Children born to a sealed couple are born "in the covenant." Children who are not born in the covenant may be sealed to their parents.
We then prepare the names of our ancestors for temple work and perform necessary ordinances for them in the temple (see 1 Corinthians 15:29; D&C 128:15–16, 24).
For more information, see Gospel Principles (2009), 207–11; True to the Faith (2004),
"And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven" (Matthew 16:19).

Back in February, one of our most active Morrowind modders, Fliggerty, unveiled plans for a new modding website called the Morrowind Census and Excise Office. With the site's launch today, you'll be able to share stats and information for your character online (think Morrowind meets Facebook).
Here's the steps you'll want to follow to get your Morrowind player tracked online, as provided by Fliggerty:
Go to the GHF Census and Excise Office website and register for a new character. You are given a character ID, then you go play Morrowind. The mod setup process will ask you for this character ID, which it will use (obviously) to reference your character's stats online. In the game you will be given a book, "Census Logs," that you use to update certain bits of info about your character. You can set things like your current activity, current mood, etc. When you wish to upload your data to the CnE web site, all you do is save your game and then choose the upload option in the uploader program."
Sounds like a cool project. The more people that participate, the more interesting the site will become. Won't you join in on the fun?

Newly published research funded in part by the National Institutes of Health found that immunosuppressive drugs that treat lupus do not necessarily increase cancer risk. Scientists at the Research Institute of the McGill University Health Centre (RI-MUHC studied most of the drugs commonly used to treat SLE including cyclophosphamide, a drug reserved for severe lupus cases and other chronic inflammatory rheumatic diseases.
Published in Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases this month, results showed that the risk for lymphoma in lupus patients treated with cyclophosphamide was less than 0.1% per year. In addition, people with lupus did not have an increased risk for lymphoma.
