Bierman appears to have "slopped

Mr. Bierman goes on to say he
wants Tilden for the next President,
and attempts to not only pull his
countrymen over to his support,
but also to pull them solidly into

too much, and he will lose votes by

The corner stone of thenewcapi
tol of Dakota, at Bismarck, was laid
last Wednesday by Mr. Villard in
the presence of the Villard party
and large numbers of Dakotians. A
beautifully written address for
Prince Bismarck was presented to
Baron von Etzudechet, the repre
sentative of the German govern
ment. Sitting Bull and about
twenty-five of his braves were pres
ent. The great chief made a speech
wherein he declared that he was
inspired by the great spirit to say
that he was now and would forever
be a friend to the white men.
Frank James, the Missouri ban
dit, who has been on trial at Galla
tin for several days, has been ac
quitted. This was not wholly un
expected, but the majority looked
for a disagreement of the jury. The
Missouri authorities may not have
done with the "gentleman'' outlaw,
but if they conclude conviction im
possible in Missouri he will prob
ably be turned over to Minnesota
to stand trial for participation in
the Northfield raid, a requisition
having been filed with Gov Critten

the only hope of ever bringing the
outlaw to justice for his many
Diphtheria in Milk.
The dangers to which dwellers in
towns and cities are sometimes ex
posed, in consequence of the gross
carlessnes or ignorence of their
country providers, is strikingly
shown by a recent outbreak of gen
uine diphtheria in Henson, Eng
land. Fifteen residents were vio
lently attacked the same day. On
investigation it appeared that all of
them had milk of the same dealer,
and that theie were no other cases
of the disease in the town, except
ing those supplied from this dairy
On pushing the inquiry further "it
was found, not only that there was
diphtheria in the family of the
milkman, but that the cans were
rinsed with water from a foul and
dirty stream that ran by the house
and yard and a microscopic exami
nation of the water revealed the
presence of living organisms sup
posed to be the cause of diphtheria
in general. This is said to be the
first time, at least in England, that
this disease has been directly and
unmistakably traced to infection
by milk, although there has before
been good reason to suspect it.

Mr. Dorsey hass made public an
other batch of letters concerning
the Republican campaign of 1880:
but if there is any significance in
them it remains for that gentleman
and his new found backers to point
it out. The correspondence is just
such as party leaders in the heat of
an exciting contest and anxious
about the result would naturally
write, and its publication is not like
ly to produce a sensation now, nor
break up the practice in the future
There are about 1,500 United

number of them have not been paid
for work done during the fiscal

Congress makes an appropriation,
as the fund from which they are paid
has become exhausted. The Attor

The ominous crack of the festive

The Pioneer Press correspondent
with the Villard party writes of the
Bozeman country: "This is cer

favored paradise. Wheat running
from 40 to 100 bushels to the acre.
The hundred-fold was shown in the
bundle, with six full heads on the

forty-five bushels per acre, and oats

correspondent undoubtedly made
his observations through a glass of
Mum's dry.
The Northern Pacific celebrations
at St, Paul and Minneapolis on the
3d inst. were immense affairs The
dual cities were beautifully decorat
ed and the people vied with each
other in doing honor to Mr. Villard
and his distinguished guests, among
whom were President Arthur, Gen.
Grant, Gen. Sheriden, Secretaries
Lincoln and Teller, ex-Secretaries
Schurz and Everts,Jand manj other
notables from Germany, England
and this country. The celebration
was held in St.Paul in the morning
and in Minneapolis in the after
noon. I the procession in St.
Paul participated the Fort Snelling
troops, Capt. McCarthy's battery
and four companies of the First
regiment. The industrial part of
the procession was at least ten
miles long and was very fine. I
Minneapolis nine companies of the
Second and six companies of the
First regiments constituted the mil
itary escort. Here as in St- Paul,
a splendid display was made of the
manufacturing industries, the pro
cession being at least 15 miles in
lenght, and the crowd of spectators
in both cities numbered fully 200,
000. Both cities put forward their
best foot and neihter need be
ashamed of the result. I twas such
an optical feast as probably never
again will be witnessed in this or

The deadlock in the Pennsylva

their brief term of ascendency for

steamer left her dock with an en or

when she got further down she had
to lighten her load, and the poor

The bodies of the animals as they
appeared now and then above the

The State fair at Owatonna last
week was a grand success. The
display of fine horses and cattle was
very large. The exhibits the
agricultural department were not as
good as they mightthave been, and
the contentions for premiums were
between individuals only, no coun
ty exhibits having been made. The
attendance was very large and en
ough money was realized to pay all
expenses and retain a nice little sur

Recents events in connection
with the completion of the North
ern Pacific railroad have brought
the name of Henry Villard in such
prominence that a brief sketch of
his career will be found of interest
by many readers who have hitherto
been unaware of the existence of
this latter day magnate. Henry
Villard is of German birth, his na
tive place being Speyer on the
Rhine. He came to America early
in life, and though at first inclined
to study law, for which his early
education well fitted him, he was
eventually led to devote himself to
journalism. was an enthusiast
ic Republican, and when as a re
porter he gave the puolic the Lin
coln and Douglas speechts in the
campaign of 1858, he became an ad
mirer of the former, whom he sup
ported till the end. I this manner
Villard became acquainted with the
leading politicians and journalists.
Lincoln was so much interested in
the adroit and vigilant journalist,
that he invited the latter to ac
company him to Washington.
On reaching the national capital
Villard became prominent as a cor
respondent for leading journals of
both the East and the West, and his
acquaintance with the Piesident
gave him a commanding position
among all classes. Mr. Villard's
first connection with railroad enter
prises was his appointment as one
of the receivers of' the Kansas Pa
cific, for which he was indebted to
some interested capitalist who had
confidence in his integrity and a
bihiy. At a later period he proceed
ed to the Pacific coast in the inter
est of certaiu German stockholders
in the Oregou Navigation Compa
ny, of which corporation he even
tually became the president, acquir
ing both wealth and business repu
tation in the enterprise. It was not,
however, until he appeared in Bos
ton and New York as the organizer
of what was termed the "blind
pool'' that his name became fami
liar in financial circles at the East.

How Watch Cases are Made.
Most persons have an ambition to cany
a goldwatch case, and yet fewpeople know
how a watch case is made, or the vast dif
ference in thequalityof them. In a SOIXD
GOLD WATCH CASE, asidefromthe neces
sarythicknessforengraving and polishing,
a large proportion of the metal is needed
only to stiffen and hold the engraved por
tions in place, and supply strength. The
surplus is not only needless, but undesira
ble, because gold is a soft metal and cannot
furnish the stiffness, strengthand elasticity
necessary to make the case permanently
strong and close-fitting. Theperfectwatch
case must combine gold with some metal
that will supply that in which the gold is
deficient. This has been accomplished by
theJamesBoas'Gold Watch Case
whichsavesthe WASTE of need-1
less gold, and INCREASES the SOLIDITY and
STRENGTH of the case, and at the same time
reduces the cost ONE HALF.

Stanley land Wigan youngster
Accrington have signed Wigan midfielder Ryan Watson on a six-month loan.
The 19-year-old will remain at the Crown Ground until January.
Watson told Accrington's website: "I really wanted to get some league games under my belt.
"This is going to be very different to the reserves where I've been used to playing and hopefully it'll be a better standard for me to get some games."
Manager Paul Cook added: "People might look at our squad and think we've got a lot of numbers but there are certain areas where we don't have a lot of cover.
"Ryan gives us a little more cover and depth to the squad. With seven subs this year and inevitable injuries and suspensions we'll need strength and he's a great addition."

If its over 7 years ago, contact the credit bureaus. They have to identify and verify a debt or take it off your report.
Best guess, they've been selling your account to collection agencies and it's been bouncing around.
DO NOT PAY THE DEBT if it's that old. It'll reset the clock and it'll be another 7 years before its off your report.

HOUSTON (ICIS)--Sulphur production in October 2013 increased year on year in western Canada, as assessed by ICIS on Wednesday.
Production was 451,000 tonnes, up from 439,000 tonnes in October 2012 and up 4% from September 2013. Year to date production has totalled 4.5m tonnes, the same as production through October 2012.
Total October 2013 gas production from plants in Alberta and British Columbia was 247,000 tonnes, down from 251,000 tonnes in October 2012 and up 5% month on month. Alberta oil sands processing produced 178,000 tonnes, up from 161,000 tonnes in October 2012 and up 4% from the previous month. Other production totalled 26,000 tonnes.
Not all sulphur production data is available for November and December 2013, but results for gas plants in Alberta show 179,000 tonnes produced in November and 187,000 tonnes produced in December.
Alberta gas plants produced 2.4m tonnes of sulphur in 2013, in line with 2012.
Alberta oil sands processing produced 192,000 tonnes of sulphur in November, which is the most tonnage of any month in 2013 from oil sands processing and up 29% from November 2012.
The sulphur market is tight in Canada, mirroring conditions in the global market due to lack of availability. Canadian Q1 contracts were heard agreed in January in the $115-120/tonne FOB (free on board) Vancouver range, up by $50-55/tonne from Q4 2013.
The range could be headed even higher as Middle Eastern sulphur producers ADNOC (Abu Dhabi National Oil Company), Saudi Aramco and Tasweeq have each independently settled their monthly contracts in February up 28% from January. The Vancouver spot range has moved up to $150-160/tonne FOB.
Sulphur is a key raw material in the production of phosphate fertilizers, including diammonium phosphate (DAP) and monoammonium phosphate (MAP).

Legal Question in Family Law in Maryland
Step parent adoption-Maryland
I have a 14 yr old daughter that would like my husband of 10 yrs to adopt her. Her father has been in and out of jail for 90% of her life and he has not had contact with her in over a year. My daughter does not want anything to do with him. I currently do not know where he is. What would I have to do to start this process if I need to find him, and if he was found and contests this, how I can get the court to over ride his objection?
1 Answer from Attorneys
Re: Step parent adoption-Maryland
You have to file a petition for adoption in the circuit court of your county. You have to "serve" the bio father by publishing a notice in a local newspaper. You should hire an attorney experienced in handling adoption cases who can guide you through this process smoothly.

Although Jessica Simpson is yet to publicly confirm the news that she is pregnant with her second child, there are some reports that her Weight Watchers deal may fall through as a result of the bun in her oven. According to Us Weekly, the weight-loss company is not happy about Simpson's baby joy, since as a source says, "No one wants to hear about a pregnant woman dieting."
Still, the article points out that Simpson could do a second television commercial that shows her from the waist up only. Apparently, she had to shoot the first spot this way because she hadn't lost enough weight. That seems puzzling as the star has stepped out looking amazing just seven months after giving birth to daughter Maxwell Drew. The commercial is yet to air, so perhaps the question of how the ad was shot will be answered when it does.
In the meantime, it seems silly that a company would be angry with a celebrity for leading her life. If she did get pregnant and it wasn't planned, then oh well! A TV commercial is much less important than a new life. Sorry, Weight Watchers!
Still, until Jessica Simpson confirms that she is indeed pregnant again, everything else is just speculation. Simpson, who typically posts messages to Twitter on a regular basis, has been conspicuously silent since the news of her second pregnancy broke. To me, the fact that she has not denied the rumors speaks volumes. One would expect her to come out and say, "These rumors are completely false," if they were. It seems she will share her news when she is good and ready.
Unlike Kate Middleton, who was basically forced to confirm her pregnancy due to her hospital stay, Simpson is waiting for her big reveal. Remember, she put together a Halloween themed pregnancy confirmation for Maxwell.
Can we expect a Christmas reveal in the coming weeks?

Soon it becomes unclear what tics are symptoms of his disease and what are side effects of the drugs. The only certainty is that it keeps getting worse. Despite his lack of control, Cory is aware of every embarrassing movement, and sensitive to every person's reaction to his often aggravating presence. Simply put: Cory Friedman's life is a living hell.
Against Medical Advice is the true story of Cory and his family's decades-long battle for survival in the face of extraordinary difficulties and a maddening medical establishment. It is a heart-rending story of struggle and triumph with a climax as dramatic as any James Patterson thriller.
©2008 Hal Friedman; (P)2008 Hachette Audio
"Against Medical Advice is both harrowing and heartbreaking, but is also a story of astonishing courage. This book stands as a testament to the amazing power of one family's unconditional love for each other." (Tess Gerritsen)
"Good Story"
This story made me realize how we always reach for a pill to make us feel better when it may really be making us even more ill. This was a triumphant story of a parent's love and a child's pain.
"Wonderful insight"
This book was a little difficult to listen to. It opened a window into a troubled mind and body in a very poignant way. It also was most helpful, especially if there is someone in your family or close circle of friends that suffers a similar affliction.
This was a wonderful book! It was very well writen. I felt like I was listening to personal diary entires. AMAZING!
"Wonderful, inspirational, true story"
There are many great lessons in this book. I listened to it mostly by accident. My wife, who passed away nearly two years ago bought AMAm, and I just discovered it in My Library after transferring her Library to mine. I don't know if Anne, my wife, listened to AMA our not, but I certainly consider my discovery of this book one more gift from her.
"Very heartfelt Story"
This is a terrific true story of triumph
When his life began to turnaround
Great insight to a very tough disease
"An life of torment never understood by anyone else"
MY son has a severe case of Tourette's Syndrome, which has extended into adulthood. This book, although the writer seemed to improve as he aged, helped me to understand so many of the comments and explanations that my son had tried to share with me over the years. I had it too--and still do at time, but never as severely as my son or as the author of this book.But what they have said has helped me understand the disease and the comorbidity with other illnesses such as ADHD and OCD, many times more clearly, in combination, than any way I have ever heard it before.
Thanks to the author and his agreement to share his story for the better good of helping others understand and hopefully working toward some treatment or at least an understanding of the illness.
It was most selfless, and I for one, have great admiration for him.
"Amazing and inspiring!"
This is truly a heart warming and inspiring story of a remarkable family! My family is going through some difficult times with one child (21) having high anxiety and OCD and another (23) being bi-polar. Then of course myself having MDD. This kind of information is invaluable! Thank you to Corey's family for telling it and to Corey for never giving up!
I had heard great things about this book on various radio programs. I purchased it, yet it took me a while to decide to read it. Once I started, I was sorry I waited so long. It was a fascinating read and keep my interest to the point I was unable to turn it off. Not only did I listen in the car, but also took it in and finished it up in the hotel room! I would recommend this book to anyone that has or has known someone with medical issues!
"Will Make you laugh and cry"
Very well written book. I could not stop listening to it.
I practically listened straight through. The pain and heartache become yours but so does the triumph.

"My Car rental Experience in Vietnam"
During my trip in Vietnam, I decided to rent a car with an aim to create my own trip as much independently, conveniently and flexibly as possible. After having shopped around, I found that the cost of car rental was rather high. Luckily, it crossed my mind that the service provider which I used to apply visa EvivaTour Vietnam also offers this logistic service and then I contacted them to get their sound advices. I think that I should share these tips here.
1. Pay much attention to the quality of the car you rent: As you know, the car for rent is used many times by many people and almost of them think that "it is not my possession, so I do not need to take care about it much". The sales executive of Getvisavietnam.com helped me erase this thinking; they advised me to double check the car conditions to avoid any unexpected problems. It is really a reasonable advice.
2. Pay much attention to traffic jams in Vietnam: The sales executive of Eviva Tour Vietnam also reminded me about the complicatedness of traffic in Vietnam. Therefore, to drive a car on your own in Vietnam, you should be at best of carefulness. You should prepare your mind to face the hooter from motorbikes and cars on the streets. For me, these noises made me stressful and then I decided to hire a local driver from the agency mentioned above. It was truly a wise decision as Mr Tung ¢ the driver is professional with locations and experiences.
3. Cost for car rental: As I said above the car rental in Vietnam is rather high. You should consider much about the type of car and how luxurious it is. Also you are responsible to pay the fuel which is rather high compared to other countries.
Hope that with these information, renting car now will be much easier for you.
From Hugo Rodriguez (United States)

Before Ecotec and Iron Duke and CVCC's there were Bangers—Ford Model T and Model A four-bangers that were prehistoric hot rodding. From street squirts to Lakes racing at the fringes of Los Angeles, bangers—including Chevy fours from the 1920s, were the engines to hop up until racers realized Ford's four-more flathead V-8s with more cylinders and more laying in bone yards just too many "mores" to ignore.
As the search for more power gained momentum, the solutions became more exotic, resulting in some rather sophisticated overhead conversions available from among others, the reigning racecar-building king of Indy: Harry Miller.
Scoring rare flathead V-8 speed equipment is fun, but finding a Model A, B or C conversion trumps the rarest-of-the-rare when it comes to low production hot rod hardware. But thanks to so many wanting in on the antique speed bandwagon, and having the casting and manufacturing ability to make it happen, there are numerous sources of repro speed parts available.
H and H Flatheads in La Crescenta, Ca, recently trucked over some choice examples from both their own stash of gems as well as customer conversions for us to photograph coming in the next issue of Hot Rod.
We run through the basics of overhead conversions, bust some myths, and show you some mighty little giants from the early days of speed freaks. This and a lot more are in our "Kill Your Prius" October, 2012 issue of Hot Rod.

At a showing this week in New York, Samsung unveiled a handful of TV accessories, including a QWERTY TV remote, a high-definition TV camera, and 3D active glasses.
QWERTY TV Remote
The QWERTY TV Remote has an LCD screen to display commands and what's being typed. Connect it wirelessly to control any Samsung Smart TV to change the channel, change input modes to watch Blu-rays or other content, or browse the web. The QWERTY TV Remote ships with every premium model, inslcuding the LED D8000 and D7000 and Plasma D800 Series TVs.
3D active glasses
Samsung introduced a range of 3D glasses that use active 3D technology and a light design. The SSG-3700CR are prescription-ready and ultra-light. The SSG-3300GR are rechargeable, as are the other models, and have a similar light design. The SSG-3300CR are compact active 3D glasses that accommodate smaller heads and fit most kids. The SSG-3100GR have a replaceable battery so users can buy an alternate battery and swap a dead battery for a charged one to eliminate downtime while viewing 3D content.
Samsung redesigned its 3D active glasses to deliver superior image quality. Samsung reduced the LCD response time to improve the contrast ratio and generate more vivid pictures with less cross-talk or ghosting across the screen, which creates viewing fatigue. Sensors on the glasses turn them on when they're placed on the head for use, and power down when motion and touch is not detected.
Samsung also introduced a wireless charger, the CY-SWC1000A, which can charge up to four pairs of glasses at once. The form factor is a glossy black cylinder. An LED light on the cylinder blinks to show that charging is in progress.
Routers and Adaptors
The CY-SWR1100 router is a simultaneous N dual-band router that features two new Samsung technologies that make it easier to set up. Plug & Access technology enables connectivity by simply plugging the USB adaptor (sold separately) into a Samsung Smart TV to create instant Wi-Fi access to the internet. One Foot Connection, which establishes a Wi-Fi connection between Samsung's new line of TVs and other compatible devices. In an initial set-up, users only need to place the router within one foot of these devices to establish a connection. The router can then be moved to a more appropriate location after initial connection.
The Samsung Wireless LAN Adaptor, WISO9ABGN supports a range of wireless standards. Use it to access content and services via Samsung Apps and view through connected Samsung Smart TVs and Blu-ray players via Wi-Fi. It also connects Samsung TVs to multimedia devices such as PCs, cameras, Blu-ray players, and mobile phones.
The Smart TV camera, CY-STC1100, is a Skype compatible high-definition camera that facilitates widescreen video calls over the internet. The camera is designed to work with all lighting conditions and a lets users sit anywhere in front of the TV to use the webcam for video calls.

Bulldog wrestling starts season off right by winning own tournament
By Jordan J. Michael
BERNE The wrestling season is young, but the Bulldogs are already ahead of nine other teams in Section II after finishing first in its own Bulldog Invitational on Saturday.
The Class D team from Berne-Knox-Westerlo scored 261 points to win the round-robin tournament and Amsterdam finished 85 points behind in second place. Mechanicville was third with 166 points.
"It's great for team morale to win our own tournament," said Head Coach Jeff Vogel on Monday. "These guys understand the mindset of being the best they can be. It's safe to say that we dominated the event."
Every starting wrestler for the Bulldogs placed in the top three of his weight classes on Saturday. BKW, Amsterdam, Mechanicville, Cairo-Durham, Greenville, Greene-Tech, Waterford, Christian Brothers Academy, Coxackie-Athens, and New York Military competed in 279 matches over seven hours.
"Half the teams there started a wrestling program around the same time we did," Vogel said. The Bulldogs started a team five years ago. "It was a similar barometer, but we had the deepest team in the field. We don't have any superstars, but we can get nine kids to place in the top three. I'm very pleased with this group."
Junior captain Blake Whitbeck scored five pins to win the 130-pound class and sophomore Matt Casullo was the champion at 135 pounds. At 145 pounds, sophomore Ben Becker pinned five opponents for a first-place finish and, Akeem Stewart also a winner in the 171-pound division.
"We found out that Stewart is a mixed martial-arts fighter," said Vogel. "We're glad that he chose the wrestling team to stay in shape and get us wins."
Senior Captain Nolan Diamond, a two-time Section II finalist, came in second at 189 pounds after finishing the day with a 4-1 record. Vogel said Diamond may have had the "best performance of his life" in a match following a loss to Brandon Giaquinto of Amsterdam. "He was patient and smart after losing a match," said Vogel. "It was a good recovery."
Freshmen J.D. Kline and Anthony Pasquini both wrestled at 112 pounds and came in second and fourth respectively. Sophomore Derek Struck was third at 125 pounds, the deepest class, according to Vogel. Senior Grady Picinich came back from a 0-2 start to finish third at 135 pounds.
Junior Captain Vincent Pasquini placed third at 140 pounds, and junior Brandon Kallner was third at 152 pounds in front of BKW teammate Josh Richards in fourth. Alex Delong dropped 25 pounds from last year and placed third at 160 pounds.
Finally, at 285 pounds, sophomore Jesse Montasano, who was in the shadow of Keith Domermuth last season, finished third behind two tough opponents. "It was a good day for the first-year starter," Vogel said. "I'm excited for his outlook."
Wrestling family
The Bulldogs placed fifth as a team last year in the Class D sectionals, its best finish ever. First-place winners Josh Glick and Domermuth are gone, as well as Greg Hannay. But, Vogel is seeing steady improvement.
"We had the first generation go through the system and now we're working with the second," said Vogel. "It doesn't look like this team has lost any steam after Saturday."
BKW still strives to make its opponents pay on the mat. The team goal hasn't changed since the program started five years ago. "We want our opposition to be glad the match is over," Vogel said. "It's a simple philosophy. We go out there and work as hard as we can and try to score points."
Vogel told The Enterprise that the wrestling team follows the same "post-season model" by which the other teams at BKW abide. He mentioned the cross-country coach, Bill Tindale, and the girls' basketball coach, Tom Galvin, as colleagues who follow the same rules.
"League matches are important, but everything leads to sectionals and states," said Vogel. "You have to think about the big picture. You want to win as much as possible, but looking at long-term chances is more crucial."
This means that Vogel isn't afraid to rest an athlete during the regular season. "If someone isn't feeling well, then I'll save him for next time," he said. "I'd rather not push the issues today if I can push them later."
The Bulldogs have 24 available wrestlers for varsity and a total of 40 kids between seventh and 12th grades. "I'll throw anyone on the mat if they're ready," said Vogel. "We keep gaining numbers."
BKW is half way to its goal of winning a Class D championship after Vogel said it would take 10 years when he started the team. "We might be able to shave a couple years off of that," he said.
The team travels to Herkimer for another Invitational on Saturday and comes back home for a match against Shaker on Dec. 15.
Vogel sent The Enterprise a roster of the 2009-10 team and it was titled "BKW Varsity Family Roster." Wrestling is more than a sport to the Bulldogs.
"It's referred to as a family because everyone is so close in this small community," Vogel said. "Sure, there's competition, but, no nastiness."

Why the Yankees will win Game 4
Hunter isn't Lee, and Burnett out to vindicate himself after struggles
By / MLB.com
Yankees starter A.J. Burnett is eager to justify manager Joe Girardi's decision to stick with him in the rotation -- and he certainly has the skill set to do it. For all his struggles this season, particularly since the All-Star break, Burnett still possesses some of the best swing-and-miss stuff in the game. He was more than a full run better at Yankee Stadium this season than away from home, and he posted a 2.50 ERA in three starts against the Rangers this season.
Rangers sluggers Josh Hamilton, Vladimir Guerrero, Ian Kinsler, Michael Young and Nelson Cruz are a combined 31-for-136 (.228) in their careers against Burnett. (Opposing view: Why the Rangers will win Game 4)
Such statistics may not be enough to erase the sour taste of Burnett's second half. But they are enough to give the Yankees hope.
"A guy with his type of stuff, you still don't know what you are going to get even when he's struggling," Rangers manager Ron Washington said. "If you put him out there, his stuff could get nasty. One guy who you don't think is going to do anything might be the guy who steps up and has everything fall into place. You are darn right I'm concerned about him."
And it's not as if Burnett will need to be perfect. Rangers starter Tommy Hunter, while solid, has submitted two scoreless starts in 22 tries this season. In his lone outing against the Yankees in September, Hunter needed 98 pitches just to complete five innings of two-run ball.
This Yankees offense, facing anyone other than Lee, can put up runs in a hurry. Curtis Granderson is 4-for-6 lifetime off Hunter. Robinson Cano is 2-for-5. As a group, lefties have touched Hunter for a .272 average and 10 home runs this season -- and Yankee Stadium tends to exaggerate numbers such as those.
So there's a decent chance that even if Burnett does struggle, the Yankees will be able to post a sufficient number of runs off Hunter -- who lasted only four innings in his ALDS start against the Rays -- to take him off the hook.

It's 130-156mfd, 110-125VAC, non-polarized electrolytic. Physically it fits in the existing mounting clip, but rather than axial leads, it has two "plug in prongs" at one end, so you need to save the longer leads from the old unit and solder them to the prongs. There's a physically identical part "4X058" which is 108-130mfd. Since the original was 130mfd, I opted to the higher value, but I'd guess the 4X058 would work as well. 73, Hans, K0HB -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.contesting.com/towertalkfaq.html Submissions: email@example.com Administrative requests: email@example.com Problems: firstname.lastname@example.com Search: http://www.contesting.com/km9p/search.htm

Same problem as everyone else with line breakage. although the result when it DOES work is excellent. Spent at least 95% of the time fixing spool issues, often with just a couple of inches cutting between breaks. Tried many cords, and eventually a much heavier one, which stripped the ratchet in the feed mechanism (although it worked a treat until that happened). I'm now searching for instructions on how to remove the spool head completely so I can fit one that takes heavier cord. Once again… Read Full Review

Yes, the line did keep snapping, every few seconds of use. The flymo line supplied was completely naff, total rubbish. However, I'd also bought a pack of B & Q's own 1.5mm line (the blue stuff), so after a very frustrated hour or so (containing maybe 5min strimming), I stripped the original line off and replaced it with B & Q's own. End of problem! I believe the machine itself is a well-made robust product, it's just that the line is a spider's reject. Change the line!… Read Full Review

Flymo Power Trim 700 is a dual line feed system; the line is supposed to feed automatically when the strimmer starts. In reality one or both of the lines chop off at the hub within a few seconds of switching on. Removing the feed spool reveals that, for some reason, the nylon is tightening onto the spool and so is unable to be released. Even after loosening, the line just tightens again.

As someone who knew practically nothing about comic books and superheroes before I started this job-- to the point that I once called Green Lantern a Marvel character and had the wrath of the Internet rained down upon me-- I've learned over the years not to giggle at silly comic book characters and ideas. A ring of power that allows you to create anything with your mind? Sure! A purple alien named Thanos who pops up at the end of a great movie and makes vague promises about what will happen next time? That seems reasonable.
But my snark was sorely tested two years ago with Thor, which just looked so ridiculous from the outset, a story about a beefy god who falls to earth, flirts with Natalie Portman, fights his brother who wears a giant curved horn helmet thing, and has conversations with Idris Elba in weird gold contacts playing a character named Heimdall. Then, lo and behold, Thor turned out to be pretty great, and I was shamed for all my skepticism. And yet, that doesn't mean I can hold it in when it comes to Thor: The Dark World, the sequel coming next year on November 8. We've known for a wile that the film's main villains wuld be the Dark Elves of Svartalfheim, which I've had a hard enough time to adjust to, but now Variety reports that Lost veteran Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje-- a.k.a. Mr. Eko-- has signed on to play one of those villains, and oh boy, those names.
Akinnuoye-Agbaje will reportedly be playing dual roles, both Algrim the Strong and Kurse, which apparently add up to him being one of the lead villains. Former Doctor Who Christopher Eccleston is already set to play another major villain, Malekith the Accursed, and of course the cast is rounded out by a lot of familiar returning faces like Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, Kat Dennings, Tom Hiddleston, Anthony Hopkins, Idris Elba and Stellan Skarsgard. It's a killer cast, and probably enough to help me get over these insane names. I just need the year and a half between now and then to get used to it. I promise I'll be on board by then.

KABUL, Afghanistan, Aug. 28 (UPI) -- The beheaded bodies of 17 Afghans, two of them women, were found in Afghanistan's insurgent-infested Helmand province, but the massacre's motive wasn't clear.
While there were differing accounts about the killings Sunday night, The Washington Post said the victims had been attending a party in the Kajaki area of Helmand in southern Afghanistan, noting the Taliban prohibits parties where there is music and mixed-gender dancing.
Provincial government spokesman Daoud Ahmadi said all of the victims were beheaded, but it was not clear whether they had been shot first, the Post reported.
Afghan President Hamid Karzai, condemning the "mass killing," blamed the Taliban, the Post said.
The New York Times reported Gov. Hajji Naimatullah Khan in Musa Qala district had first said the Taliban had executed the 17 for attending a party but later told the Times in a subsequent telephone interview witnesses believed the male victims, identified as informers, were dragged away from villages and the two women, who had pleaded for the men's lives, also were killed.
"The Taliban learned that these are the people who had links with government," Hajji Khan said of the victims. "They were detained in their homes and taken away."
The report said both Musa Qala and nearby Kajaki, where the bodies were reported found, have seen much fighting between the Taliban and NATO troops in the past and the areas remain Taliban strongholds.
Spokesmen for the Taliban either remained silent about the killings or denied knowledge, the report said.
The Times reported the U.S. Embassy in Kabul said the 17 victims had been shot and beheaded in a "shameful act."
The Wall Street Journal, also reporting there were conflicting accounts of the killings, quoted Helmand police chief Farid Ahmadi Farhang as saying all the victims were civilians.
"A couple of days before some very important Taliban commanders were killed in [a coalition] airstrike, making the Taliban very angry. The Taliban killed those people they accused of spying on their slain commanders," he said.
The Journal quoted a Taliban spokesman for southern Afghanistan as saying he wasn't aware of the incident in Kajaki.
Britain's The Guardian newspaper reported one of the various reasons for the killings given by officials was that it resulted after two Taliban commanders quarreled over women. Separately, the report quoted the police commander's office as saying it had been told the 17 victims were targeted as government spies.

Keri Hilson ft. Lil' Wayne - Turning Me On
Being signed to not one, but two heavyweight producers' labels (Timbaland's Mosley Music Group and Polow Da Don's Zone 4, Inc.), Keri Hilson has double the star power of most up-and-coming talents. Following her Runaways-produced first single, Energy, the Atlanta songbird has unleashed a new song inside the Booth; at a clubbish nightspot, she is approached by several different men, clearly trying to distinguish between who is Turning Me On and who is turning her off. Half-way through her deliberations, however, guest artist Weezy F Baby arrives and puts his unique watermark on the record over Polow's catchy production. Turning Me On is a potential single from Keri's forthcoming debut album, In A Perfect World, which will be available in stores and online November 4.

We're so much in love with each other.
Her Story:
I signed up with BlackSingles on June 11th '09 after typing into the google bar 'dating single black men in the UK'. [I'm British.] Within the first few minutes of browsing, it became apparent that this site predominately catered for American clients. However, I thought, "I've paid my money so I might as well stick around".
On the 17th of June '09, I received an e-mail from a man with the profile name of 'Mufasared'.
His interest in me was certain and the compliments were flowing, but I was not moved, because he physically did not fall into my stereotyped image of what my 'Mr. Right' should look like.
We continued to exchange conversations and to my surprise, I found my heart warming towards him. He was intelligent, respectful, caring, knew the word of God and made me laugh. [I couldn't quite understand the pull that he had on me, because at that point I was not attracted to him.]
However, one day he sent me a video message and I was able to see the animated Mufasared. It was then that I said to myself, "This man is quite sexy".
Well, since then we've grown closer and closer, via phone calls, twice a day, video link conversations and post correspondence.
We are serious about each other and have spoken about getting married, having children and living in the UK or the States. We are due to meet in Aug/Sept of this year.
We're so much in love with each other. He is the man that I have been praying to meet for the best part of my life and he has all the qualities a woman could ever want in a man. What makes it so wonderful is that these feelings are mutual.
I'd like to thank BlackSingles for providing us with this forum, since without your web site we wouldn't have met and I'd still be searching, in hope of filling that gap in my heart.
Thanks again,
His Story:
Once upon a time there was a man in the US who decided that in his backyard that maybe the love of his life would not be found. After joining BlackSingles and wading in the water of possibility, that which seemed highly improbable, became very probable. I met Ginger67 from the UK. After reading her profile and engaging in the many thought provoking conversations, we decided that a new love was born. I want to thank BlackSingles for the platform that brought Ginger67 and Mufasared together. Loving me some Ginger67.
Thank you,

Cowboys' defensive front seven the No. 1 goal to address in off-season, Stephen Jones says
Dallas Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said Monday that he has a clear "number-one goal" for the off-season.
"I think our biggest challenge is to get a better roster. Get us to where we can compete better. I think it will start with our defensive front," Jones said on KRLD-FM 105.3. "We spent a lot of energy in the offensive line the last couple of years. I think we did some good there...obviously we'll turn our attention to the front seven with the injuries and obviously the cap situation that we have."
The Cowboys set a franchise record, allowing 6,645 yards this season. Opposing teams also scored 432 points in 16 games against the Cowboys, four shy of the franchise record. Injuries took a heavy toll on the Cowboys' defensive line and linebackers.
Restructuring defensive end DeMarcus Ware's contract will likely be a key issue for Dallas to address. Ware is scheduled to make $12.2 million in 2014 and has a salary cap hit of $16 million. He is one of the players the Cowboys go to every off-season to push money back to create more cap space in the upcoming year.
Free-agent-to-be defensive lineman Jason Hatcher creates another key off-season issue for Dallas, who's projected to be nearly $30 million over the salary cap heading into 2014.
"I think (Hatcher) had his best season as a pro," Jones said. "We would love to have Jason back but...we have obviously have to do what's best for the Cowboys."
As much as the 31-year-old has enjoyed playing in Dallas, don't expect him to take a pay cut to remain a Cowboy. Sitting at his locker late Sunday night, Hatcher said he will "absolutely not" allow the decision to become emotional.
"This is business," Hatcher said. "Emotions are out of it."
Does he think he'll be back next year?
"I don't know, man. My feelings are just, I'm numb right now," Hatcher said.
Staff writers Jon Machota and David Moore contributed to this report.

Sometimes we are so blinded by the love for that special person, that we fail to notice some very obvious signs that he wants to move away. When we start dating somebody, we happily start imagining ourselves with them for the rest of our lives. Blinded by this bliss of the relationship, we keep on dragging the relationship further. We ignore certain signs which clearly indicates that he is no more in love and needs to break.
Not all relationships have a happy future. Often some relationships come to an end just when you think that everything is going perfectly fine. It can be due to your fault or that of your partner. But every relationship which ends comes with a plenty of warning signs and red flags. So, if you want to avoid getting hurt, then it is better to look out for and understand those signs. Looking out for these signs gives you a chance make things work or to prepare yourself beforehand for the heartbreak.
