Oakland right-hander A.J. Griffin is scheduled to have elbow surgery Wednesday, and will miss the entire season with fellow third-year starter Jarrod Parker.
Griffin, who went 14-10 last season, will join a growing list of pitchers who have had Tommy John surgery this year. The group includes, among others, Parker, who was 12-8 last season and had been expected to be Oakland's 2014 opening day starter; Atlanta's Kris Medlen and Brandon Beachy; the Yankees' Ivan Nova; Arizona's Patrick Corbin; San Diego's Josh Johnson and Cory Luebke; Tampa Bay's Matt Moore; Kansas City's Luke Hochevar; the Mets' Bobby Parnell and Detroit's Bruce Rondon.
Chapman progressing
Cincinnati closer Aroldis Chapman threw 25 pitches in batting practice and is expected to begin a rehabilitation at Class-A Dayton on Thursday, his first time in a game since he was hit in the head by a line drive during spring training. He's hoping to be activated after four or five appearances in the minors.
Suspended Yankees starter Michael Pineda, who missed the 2012 and 2013 seasons after having shoulder surgery, pulled himself from a simulated game with tightness in an upper back muscle and will have an MRI test. . . . Texas third baseman Kevin Kouzmanoff will get a second opinion before having a herniated disk in his lower back surgically repaired. . . . Atlanta left-hander Mike Minor, sidelined all of April by shoulder soreness, will make his season debut Friday at home against San Francisco, Manager Fredi Gonzalez said. . . . Washington outfielder Bryce Harper had surgery on his injured left thumb. The club gave no timetable for his return; reports Monday indicated he would be out until at least July. . . . Milwaukee outfielder Ryan Braun was out of the lineup for the third straight game because of an oblique-muscle strain.

The bing is old, maybe. There are no gps tracks. The on the road image, that shall remain nameless, shows the road as a gravel road.
Koordinates shows this stretch of road as being the primary road with it running down Stanly St then turning onto Septimus St, the gravel road. AA maps shows the primary continuing on Bridge St and down High St where it joins Septimus St.
I live in Auckland I drove through Eketahuna a couple of weeks ago on a trip to Wellington, I didn't leave SH2 so am unsure which is correct. I am editing Eketahuna as the creator of all the roads in Eketahuna had left them one way, unnamed and with turn restrictions left on. Standard stuff for that editor I know. Old dogs and all that. I'm tidy by nature so have a compulsion to fix things and do them right. In this case I am uncertain what is right.
Is there an editor who lives within cooee of Eketahuna that would like/be able to take a drive or knows the roads and area who can check if the road is correct the way I have done it?
In the mean time I'll carry on making Eketahuna navigable and routable to the best of my ability.

OK so I am building a Java application and for it I need to be able to upload/download files from an FTP. The thing that I need is how to restrict these things so that you have to login to view and access them. If anybody could give me a link to somewhere I can learn about it or a YouTube tutorial that would be greatly appreciated.

Saudi Arabia has denied reports that its air force used fighter jets to bomb targets in Yemen.
Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal said on Saturday the country's jets had not targeted Al Qaeda in Yemen [2] as part of the U.S.-led covert war.
Britain's Times newspaper on Friday cited an anonymous U.S. intelligence source as saying "some of the so-called drone missions are actually Saudi Air Force missions".
Saudi Arabia [3] views militants linked to Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsular - some of whom are Saudi nationals - as the greatest threat to the stability of the world's primary oil producer.
The revelations on Saturday would not be the first time the Saudi Air Force had been deployed in Yemen and risk inflaming the relationship between the two countries, and complicating ties with the complex web of tribal groups who control vast swaths of the country.
In 2009, Saudi troops and fighter jets were used in Yemen's offensive against the Houthi clan in northern Yemen [4].
The U.S. also carries out drone strikes in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Somalia.
An ongoing investigation by the London-based Bureau of Investigative Journalism found that while drone strikes had significantly decreased in Pakistan in 2012, they had risen sharply in Yemen [5].

KRASNAYA POLYANA, Russia (USA TODAY) – American David Wise won gold in the debut of freeski halfpipe in the Olympic Games on Tuesday.
The Reno native scored a 92 on his first run, putting him in first. On his second run, Wise hit the lip of the pipe on his first hit. He then had to watch and wait to find out if he won gold until Canadian Justin Dorey came down the pipe.
Dorey, however, fell midway through his run, clinching gold for Wise. Mike Riddle of Canada won silver and Kevin Rolland of France took bronze.
It was the 20th medal for the United States, which tied the Netherlands atop the overall medal count. Earlier in the day, Alex Deibold won bronze in men's snowboardcross. The U.S. team has won at least one medal every day in Sochi.
Three nations (Germany, Soviet Union and East Germany) have won a medal on every day of the Winter Olympics before, but the U.S. team has never done it, according to Olympic historian Bill Mallon.
Wise, 23, came into the event heavily favored to win gold after doing so in the past three X Games. One of the best skiers in the halfpipe, Wise is first in the Association of Freeskiing Professionals rankings.
The Reno native was the first skier to qualify for the U.S. team, winning two of the first three qualifiers to lock up a spot.
Wise saw his American teammates Lyman Currier and Torin Yater-Wallace fail to advance out of qualifying. Both fell on their first runs.
On his second run, Currier landed his trick but ended in the sitting position with his body twisted. Medical personnel went up the halfpipe, but after a few moments Currier skied down.
The 19-year-old found his father in the crowd and, sobbing, told him, "It popped." After spending several minutes being consoled by his father, David, who was a former ski racer and made the Olympics at 19, Currier limped off in tears.
He had previously torn his anterior cruciate ligament, medial collateral ligament and meniscus. He competed in the World Cup test event here in Feb. 2013, just seven months after surgery to repair the knee.
Yater-Wallace, meanwhile, scored only a 39.00 on his second run after landing backseat at the end and failed to advance.

Latvia's foreign relations in 2007 developed along the anticipated lines. The EU extended the Schengen passport-free travel zone to Latvia, and Canada permitted Latvians visa-free travel. Given the unpopularity of the war in Iraq from the outset, the calls to withdraw Latvian peacekeepers swelled in January when two soldiers (killed in Iraq in December 2006) were laid to rest in Riga. In late June, having fulfilled its international mission, the Latvian unit returned home, but more Latvian peacekeepers were later sent to Afghanistan.
Agreement was finally reached on March 27 on a border treaty with Russia. Having been approved by the respective parliaments, it awaited the initials of the foreign ministers. Though welcomed abroad, the treaty remained controversial in Latvia because it affirmed the borders imposed by the Soviet regime and accepted the seizure of Latvian border counties by the U.S.S.R.; this, in turn, raised questions related to the constitution and adherence to the legal notions central to the reestablishment in 1991 of the independent and democratic Republic of Latvia. The Constitutional Court announced on November 29 that the treaty did not violate the constitution, but it added clarifying commentary that allegedly offended some Russian officials. Nonetheless, on December 18 Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and his Latvian counterpart, Maris Riekstins, exchanged the ratification documents in Riga and thus completed the formalities.
Domestically, Latvia experienced the ills of an overheated economy. Though gross domestic product grew by an estimated 11%, the growth was offset by equally high inflation.
Pres. Vaira Vike-Freiberga stepped down in July because the law did not permit her to serve a third term. Parliamentary support for the government's policies was ensured by strict discipline within the ruling coalition, led by the People's Party, whose nominee, Valdis Zatlers (a surgeon with no political experience) was elected by the parliament as the new president of Latvia.
In his second term as prime minister, Aigars Kalvitis concentrated on expanding the powers of his office and censured individuals and institutions (including the Anti-Corruption Bureau and its head, Aleksejs Loskutovs) that questioned his government's policies and the practices and finances of the People's Party, which Kalvitis led.
The gradually declining public confidence in the government, the parliament, and the country's legal system was accelerated by revelations of crime among high-ranking elected officials. Consequently, public confidence in the government and the parliament plummeted, and mass demonstrations took place in October and November. On December 5 Kalvitis and his government resigned. President Zatlers asked Ivars Godmanis, an experienced politician from Latvia's Way (which joined forces with the First Party in the 2006 parliamentary elections) to form a new government representing the five centre-right parties. Unable to persuade the opposition New Era to join his team, Godmanis formed a government from mostly the same ministers who had served in the cabinet of Kalvitis and who represented the same four political parties. The parliament endorsed Godmanis and his cabinet on December 20.

DENTON — Denton County Transportation Authority officials have released the much-anticipated initial operating schedule for the A-train, which begins running Monday.
The 20-mile passenger rail will run from downtown Denton to Carrollton, where riders can connect with Dallas Area Rapid Transit services to continue into Dallas.
A-train service will begin at 5 a.m. weekdays and conclude at 9:23 p.m., but there will be no midday train service Monday through Friday. Service between 10:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. will be provided through DCTA's Station Shuttle bus service, said Dee Leggett, DCTA's vice president of communications and planning.
"That is a cost-saving measure," Leggett said. "We anticipate [midday] capacity will be the lightest; until ridership grows, we will continue to operate that midday service as a bus service."
Leggett said the schedule does accommodate late-night Friday service as well as Saturday service as member cities and residents requested.
Starting Monday, DCTA will modify its bus schedule to provide connections to the rail line. Leggett suggested that bus passengers request updated local routes from their drivers so they are aware of any schedule changes that could affect them.
Schedules will be tweaked as needed after several weeks of service, said Jim Witt, DCTA president.
"It's all going to be based on input from passengers," he said.
To celebrate the beginning of service, DCTA will host a communitywide event, the Rock 'n' Rail celebration, from noon to 4 p.m. Saturday. The event will feature performances by local musicians at all five DCTA stations. Local food vendors and businesses will participate. For the celebration, DCTA will offer free A-train service from noon to 6 p.m. between the Downtown Denton Transit Center and Hebron Station.
The full A-train schedule can be seen at www.dcta.net.

This is a very nice halo clear based glitter. I love how this looks over dark colors and colors where I normally just don't like because they are so flat or boring. This will liven it up. this isn;'t completely comparable to Out The Door's Northern Lights. That is a serious halo topper. I would say this is more in the middle.

Shine on Crazy Diamond is a clear topper with tiny rainbow glitters. I like tiny holo glitters as they look like tiny twinkling stars when layered over dark base colors. And because they are so tiny, removal isn't a problem and they don't scratch up your nails like large glitters.
On the not so good side there isn't very much glitter so you will probably need at least 2 coats as a topper or 6 layers to reach bottle color. Dries fast but needs so much layering that overall drying time is slooooow. Not very shiny and chips really quickly so you will need to wear a good top coat if you're planning on it lasting more than one night.
If you can't easily get Shine on Crazy Diamond here are some dupes for the same effect!
- Fairy Dust by China Glaze. More sparkle than Orly. Very thick texture, will need thinning halfway down the bottle a bit like Seche Vite does.
- Electric Lane by Nails Inc. More sparkle than Orly.
- Northern Lights in Silver by Out the Door. More sparkle than Orly. Pricey.

This is my go to glitter polish for everyday use. This can go over EVERYTHING. The glitter is a little sparse when you apply it, so I normally do approx 2 applications on each finger to get my desired glitter. And finish off with my tc.
The glitter is mostly silver glitters with rainbow effects in the sun. And it def dries clear.

I'm not going to lie, when I read the name I said I was getting the polish regardless because it is my all time favorite pink floyd song. Then when I saw it was a glitter I was even more excited. I love the effect of the glitter and the size of the chunks but it's so freakin sparse that I need like 5 coats to get the amount of glitter i want. I guess if you're going for subtle this is okay but I like my glitter loud and proud.

I bought this in the .18 fl oz bottle the other day for a feather mani I was working on. I wanted a little bit of chunky glitter to put on just over the feathers. This was perfectly prismatic and was not overly glittery, which I loved. Goes on smooth, dries fast and smooth.

Definitely a must-have from Orly. Shine On Crazy Diamond is not for those who want glitter to cover their nails in one coat, of course, but it is great for layering. I love it for creating a "dripping in diamonds" effect: apply 1 coat to all the nail, one more coat to 3/4, one more coat to 1/2, and then one more for the tips. It's gorgeous! And believe me, the shimmer on this glitter is INSANE! Crazy diamond, indeed! Even under sunlight, natural light, indoor light, or night club light, this polish is like applying tiny Swarovski crystals to your nails. It's not a childish glitter, so don't be afraid of how crazy it looks on the bottle. It can be a daily natural glitter or a perfect nightime glitter depending on how many coats you apply. I didn't find it sparse at all.

This is my go-to silver glitter topcoat. It's full of tiny glitter that flashes color, and looks especially beautiful over darker polish. I would not recommend it as a solo-polish, because the glitter is too sparse to work that way without a million coats. As is, I would like it to be more glittery, because it takes at least two coats for it to be noticeable as a topcoat. I love the color however and the size of the glitter, so I would rebuy.

The glitter in this product is beautiful, but unfortunately you only realize that if you peer at it closely, and if you layer it onto dark colours. The main flaws with this polish, like another reviewer has stated, is that:
1. The density of polish in one swipe is quite disappointing
2. it dries with no gloss whatsoever, so your manicure ends up looking like it has a rather matte consistency. If you prefer your fingernails shiny, you definitely need another topcoat with this

This looks absolutely gorgeous in the bottle. I am a huge fan of glitter and this one has amazing sparkle. However it is so sparse that I am returning it. Its comparable to Pure Ice "Don't You Wish" but with more silver in it. I really wanted to love this, but unfortunately it didnt knock my socks off. Tomorrow will be exchanging it for something else.

This polish, in the bottle, looks primarily silver, with prismatic, multicolored flecks throughout. It's very pretty, but when applied, the glitter is rather sparse, so if you want a noticeable effect, you'll have to apply a few coats.
I've had the same bottle for a few years, and the formula is still in good shape, as it still applies well and dries quickly. It's not hard to apply a few coats, and it's a cute substitute for plain, clear polish. But if I were to buy a glitter polish again, I'd probably get something with denser glitter, unless other formulas are too crappy to bother with.

Kleeb is subject of Lakeland Public Television story
Jamil Donith, a reporter for Lakeland Public TV, thought Mindy Kleeb's Ukrainian egg painting would make a great story for her In Focus segment on the 10 p.m. news which aired on Good Friday. She interviewed Kleeb and filmed her doing all the stages of the egg decorating. Donith then tried her hand at the process, also on camera. If you missed it on the news you can catch the segment on line. Go to http://www.lptv.org and click on "news segments" in the block with the newscaster photos. Scroll down to April 22 and it's the last segment under that date.
Kleeb's eggs were part of the Artist Sampler display featured in the Tin Pan gALLErY from April 7-May 7.
Coming next to the gallery is the annual Blackduck High School Student Art Show.
The show should be in place by May 12. The center will be open special hours May 20 for the student reception from 4-6:30 p.m. This reception is timed to coincide with the building trades show, also during the afternoon, and is prior to the high school band and choir concert at 7 p.m. Take in all three events for a triple treat.
The center is located only a block from the school at Main and Margaret in Blackduck. Regular History Center hours are Thursday and Friday from 1-4 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m.-4 p.m.

Mix of bulking and burning ?
Hey, I'm completly new here. I'm 18, so I'm new to this. I've been working out for a short while. Less then 6 months now. But a year ago i was also working out for about 7 months then took a break. I know a lot about working out so that's not an issue. I'm 5'8'' and 175. I'm not fat, not thin, medium i guess with a little bit of weight to lose to reach my 1st weight loss goal. Though I want to be cut by about 5-6 months. I eat right, do a ton of running (i play lacrosse), and am heavy into health. Alright well enough with the biography, your all probably getting bored of hearing about that. Now I've been taking Cell-Tech for about 2 1/2 months and noticing good results. Now I want to continue taking it and mixing in Lipo 6 for fat reduction and weight loss. Is this combination alright to do? Will i still see results with both of them. Like increased muscle size with cell-tech and still weight loss with lipo 6. Or should i use cell-tech for a longer time and then months later do lipo 6. I would like to be in a little better shape for summer time so I need the best advice. Thanks. Now that I'm here I'll post as much as i can. Just need some help to start off with.
Its OK to do that combo, but the caffeine is going to make u loose a lot of water, so its somewhat act opposite to the goal of taking creatine. Good luck anyway bro, and next time, dont buy cell tech, just buy pure creatine mono.

Cell-Tech weight gain is directly related to the ungodly amount of sugar per serving. If you want to loose weight, you don't want 75 grams of sugar, pure and simple. Regular creatine mono will be just as effective and better for your goals.
Thanks a lot. I'll check into pure creatine mono. I have a friend who suggested the Cell-Tech after he had some good results. So untill I get that, I'll use the Cell-Tech, but then switch over. Again thanks for the response.
Here's how unpopular cell-tech is with fellow weightlifters. :(
That's a very good point, I definately second it... ;)
To make taurus happy, I am going to third that :D
i also agree it will eat the fat but over time

Okay so this game is know to have issues, so I googled and read guides that are out there but nothing really worked..
As far as I know, the ones I read were for systems with 4.2 and below, I currently have 4.3U.
I tired to run it on 2 different loaders, GX and CFG. When I used GX it freeze then this error screen with text would appear, with a 20 second reload time, and when I useCFG it would freeze up and the screen would get a fuzzy green effect and just restart.4
I tried using 222-223 merged as many of the guides say to do, I tried using 249 w/ base 37, and nothing has worked..
If anyone knows a method to get it working please let me know, or if theres a guide out there that I havent seen yet, link me.

MARQUETTE, Mich. - Rep. Bart Stupak insists that tea party activists outraged over his crucial support of health care legislation didn't run him out of office, but his decision to retire gives conservatives a rallying point as they target Democrats in the midterm elections.
The congressman, an anti-abortion Democrat whose high-profile role in the "Obamacare" debate earned him enemies on the left and the right, said Friday that he's leaving because he's tired and has accomplished his No. 1 goal: improving health care.
"The tea party did not run me out," Stupak told The Associated Press in a phone interview. "If you know me and my personality, I would welcome the challenge."
Stupak had been a consistent landslide winner in his sprawling Northern Michigan district, and the opening now offers Republicans a ripe opportunity to regain a seat they held for decades until Stupak prevailed in 1992.
His political foes - tea party activists and abortion opponents - both claimed credit for forcing him into retirement, and Michigan GOP Chairman Ron Weiser declared that the nine-term incumbent had become the first casualty of the battle over health care in Congress.

Fashion Star - The New Series From Electus - To Premiere Across Asia On DIVA Universal
Jan 24, 2012, 10:00 ET from Electus
NEW YORK, Jan. 24, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Fashion Star – a new reality competition show hosted and executive produced by Elle Macpherson – will premiere across 20 countries in Asia on DIVA Universal in Spring 2012, following the show's debut on NBC in the U.S. on Tuesday, March 13th at 9/8c. In the 10-episode competition series, Macpherson is joined by fashion icons Jessica Simpson, Nicole Richie and John Varvatos as celebrity mentors. The announcement was made today by Universal Networks International and Electus International, the global distribution arm of Ben Silverman's multimedia entertainment studio Electus, an operating business of IAC (Nasdaq: IACI).
"Fashion Star brings together top undiscovered designers, celebrity mentors and influential retailers in an exciting, new television format that the world has never seen before," said John Pollak, President of Electus International. "With this new series, audiences will finally have the opportunity not only to watch, but to actively participate in building the world's next major fashion brand, and we are excited to be premiering this compelling show across Asia with DIVA Universal."
Fashion Star gives 14 unknown designers a life-changing opportunity to win a multi-million dollar contract to launch their clothing lines in Macy's, H&M and Saks Fifth Avenue – three of the largest retailers in the U.S. Contestants will be put to the test to see how they react in a variety of real-world scenarios to determine who has the vision and desire to build a fashion empire. With top experts as their guides and mentors throughout the process, designers will have to be as adept in the business of fashion as they are in their creativity.
Each episode kicks off with an exhilarating fashion show featuring musical performances, dancers, and models in front of a live studio audience. Every fashion show will be built around a weekly challenge that is designed to further develop each designer's brand.
Buyers from Macy's, H&M and Saks Fifth Avenue will serve as the judges, making on-the-spot decisions each week as they bid against each other to purchase the work of these up-and-coming designers. The night following each episode, the winning designs will be available online and in retail stores in the U.S. In the end, the designer who most successfully combines fashion and business will become the next "Fashion Star" and receive the prize of a lifetime - an exclusive capsule line in each of the three retailers.
"The Fashion Star format is one-of-a-kind in reality fashion entertainment and an exciting addition to DIVA Universal's strong line-up of new shows this year. Fashion Star will greatly appeal to DIVA Universal's female audience with its fresh format and high entertainment value," said David Gunson, Vice President of Channels, South East Asia, Universal Networks International.
The Fashion Star format was developed by Ben Silverman of Electus (NBC's The Biggest Loser, The Office, and The Tudors), Rick Ringbakk of Emmy Award-winning 5x5 Media (Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution), and E.J. Johnston and James Deutch of EJD Productions.
The show is executive-produced by Elle Macpherson, Ben Silverman of Electus, Jane Lipsitz and Dan Cutforth of The Magical Elves, Rick Ringbakk of 5x5 Media and EJ Johnston and James Deutch of EJD Productions. Electus International retains all international distribution rights.

Jerusalem: The Making of a Holy City
A bloody good documentary
BBC Four
About halfway through last night's second episode of Simon Sebag-Montefiore's frantic journey through the history of Jerusalem, I began to feel both dizzy and nauseous.
Sebag-Montefiore - author of a best-selling history of the holy city - had argued that its bloody history was "the best argument against religion ever invented". But that was not what caused my momentary discomfort.
The dizziness came with the pace of the documentary. No sooner had the Muslims descended on Jerusalem, than the Christians were on their way from Europe to reclaim the city and the Muslims were getting together an army to re-conquer it - blink and you had missed a century.
The city has been destroyed twice, besieged 23 times, attacked 52 times, and captured and recaptured 44 times. To fit this kind of turmoil into three one-hour programmes is a major achievement.
The nausea came with the extreme level of violence. There were Jews burned in their synagogues, thousands upon thousands of Christians and Muslims massacred - so many, it seems, that the smell of putrefying bodies was said to linger for more than six months. There was dismemberment, garrotting, poisoning and more beheading than one cared to contemplate.
There was more beheading than one cared to contemplate
From a small, bronze-age settlement which benefited from a constant water supply and a secure hill-top location, Jerusalem rose, first under the Jews, then the Christians, became home to a great Muslim civilisation, its grandeur balanced by the constant threat of total destruction - indeed, several times in its history, it has nearly been wiped off the map completely.
Sebag-Montefiore, a gifted story-teller as well as an accomplished historian, seemed to relish the gore, perhaps at times a little too much.
This was a documentary series of the old-school. Sebag-Montefiore strolled around the Old City in a Panama hat, his chinos blending in with the Jerusalem stone, telling tales of jealousy, fanaticism and greed. With no archive footage (at least for the first two episodes), the words were illustrated, sometimes impressively, at other times clumsily, with scenes from modern Jerusalem (to show the enthusiastic adoption of Hellenistic culture by the Jews under the Greeks, we were incongruously shown teenagers playing basketball in a city park).
The story was gripping enough in itself - the final episode, to be screened next Thursday, illustrates how the old enmities spilled over into the 20th century. We learn of how the two peoples and three faiths that claim the city as their own, struggled for ownership, amid violence brutality and fear.
Not only has what Sebag-Montefiore describes as the "curse of Jerusalem" ruined lives and destroyed civilisations, it has also given birth to its very own psychotic illness - Jerusalem Syndrome. The city remains, in Sebag-Montefiore's words, "anxious, angry and divided".
The series culminates in the second half of the final episode with the story of the return of the Jews to their historic homeland, the demise of the Ottoman Empire and the turmoil of the years of the British Mandate.
Although a history of the Arab-Jewish conflict in around 30 minutes is a tough act to pull off, Sebag-Montefiore draws on centuries of conflict to give a balance and depth to the dispute rarely seen on British television.
All the more reason to put his book on your Chanucah list.

I love details. In this last post about Kaleigh's bridal shower I'm sharing the rest of the details that made the day so special including a tutorial for these adorable DIY pink ombre' clothespins.
Tied among the wisteria surrounding the gazebo was a little clothesline full of baby pictures of the Bride-to-Be. Each pic was hung from simple wood clothespins with an easy ombre paint treatment.
The end of the clothesline was embellished with handmade fabric strip tassels.
DIY Ombre' Clothespins Tutorial
Karianne painted these using pink and white craft paint.
Staring with white at the bottom of the clothespin…
she layered in the pink…
gradually getting darker and darker…
Ending with the darkest pink at the top of the clothespin.
We thought about adding spray glitter but somehow didn't get around to it. 🙂 But it sure would be a nice finishing touch.
Baby Photo Clothesline
All I could think…Where did the years go?
Oversize Balloons
Courtney found the oversize pink balloons on Etsy. Supposedly these balloons can be blown up to 36″ in diameter! But Courtney got a bit nervous about popping such a large balloon as she was airing it up and decided better safe than sorry.

text: So my other cab is busted right now, too. Long story short, I let a band use my Ampeg B25B. It's rewired from 16ohms to 2ohms (my GK1001RB is good for it). Dude's amp was 4ohms, and midway through their set, my cab dies. No sound. Nothing. Until after this incident, I was not very knowledgable on resistance. To be fair, I'm still not. But I know a lot more now than I did then, and which means I know that I made a bad call when I let them run a 4ohm amp through my 2ohm cab. So, burning question: what should I replace my speakers with? Any and all suggestions would be greatly accepted.

I certainly hope so. Tonight is the managerial debut of a beloved former Met, Wally Backman. David Lennon has a great post about Backman and his philosophy. Backman still has the fire that endeared him to Mets fans in the 1980's. Among some of the things he expects from his players: __________________________________________________________________ "One of the things that I do is I take losses personally, and I try to instill that in my players: take it personal. This is your job. You're paid X amount of dollars to do whatever you can do, and I expect at least 100 percent on the field. I think the only reason you play a professional sport is to win a championship. And if you look at it any other way, that's not the guy I want playing for me." ___________________________________________________________________
Lennon makes a real insightful interpretation of Backman's managerial style; he compares it to Atlanta's Bobby Cox, whom players love playing for. Marlins 2B Dan Uggla said he felt so strongly about Backman, that he "would have run through a brick wall for him."Uggla played for Backman in Class A Lancaster.
"I try to earn the trust of my players. I'm going to get -- off when we lose, but I don't take it to any extreme. There's times when I'm going to chew some butt once in a while, and it's all for a good reason. I'm not going to yell and scream just because we lost a game. It really depends on how they go about their business. And they learn pretty quickly what my expectations are." __________________________________________________________________
Backman is known for his fiery attitude and presence on the field, and is not afraid to get tossed from a game. He goes to the end of the earth for his players, and does not plan on changing:
"I'm not going to say that I'm going to change. Most of the time, you're protecting your players. Am I going to throw bats and balls? No, I'm not going to do that kind of stuff. People perceive me in different ways. Have I got thrown out of games? Absolutely. Am I still going to get thrown out of games? Without a question.
"But 99 percent of the time, it's protecting your players. They know that if something happens, I've got their back, I'm very capable of yelling and screaming at an umpire and getting thrown out of a game, but it's over with just as fast. Very, very seldom will you see me get thrown out of a game without a player being ejected first."_________________________________________________________________
Tonight Wally Backman will begin his Met managerial career in Staten Island against the Staten Island Yankees.
Will it be long before his NY Mets managerial career begins?

There isn't an easy way to push these two streams to a single dzen, so many people end up running two instances. xmobar avoids this issue because it is based on the concept of combining several asynchronous input sources.

For all the talk that surrounds the booming culture of multiplexes, corporate houses investing money, small films (finally) managing to make their mark and innovative concepts being accepted in a big way by niche audience, it comes across as an unpleasant surprise to see a film like Manorama Six Feet Under finding it's audience only in the DVD circuits.
The reason for this is that the film was a disaster at the box office, hence turning out to be an antithesis to the intrinsic qualities it boasted of.
This film had everything going in it's favour, be it an original storytelling, setting in (true) noir genre, career best performance by Abhay Deol, imaginative background score, class cinematography which could match international standards and a shocking ending. Yet this suspense thriller lost out at the box office. The reason for the disaster is poor promotional strategy, market placement and lack of thought in identifying the target audience!
Half hearted publicity and poor show timing selection at the multiplexes pulled down the response to the movie. Result was that the film came, impressed the critics, got high ratings and by the time news reached the audience, it was time for Manorama Six Feet Under to announce adieu in one week flat.
Set in a small town Lakhot (somewhere in Rajasthan), the film is a jigsaw puzzle with pieces like corruption, voyeurism, extra marital temptations and lies fitting together to create an image which is totally unpredictable.
Anything that doesn't quite work for the film? The pace of the film becomes slow at a couple of instances in the first half with the beginning of second half being a complete letdown. The small town laziness and built up of characters had to be brought to fore but from an audience point of view, it is expected that they would want the drama to unfold quicker.
Still, like any other good thriller, the beauty of Manorama Six Feet Under also lies in the fact that the evidence is right in front of you from the very beginning of the film with enough hints being dropped which are hardly caught by an audience.
And when the secret unfolds, one tends to get into a collective gasp - 'Ok, so this was it'! Here too, Abhay explores the 'hows', 'whens' and the 'whys' at the risk of his life and the ugly truth does leave a bad taste in his month - literally!
Manorama Six Feet Under comes in a thick paper case with a proud mention of the film being 'Most Critically Acclaimed Film of the Year' and 'Winner of Best Film Award at MIAAC Film Festival - New York'. It also features some glowing reviews that the film received.
The film comes in a single DVD with the film's duration being 137 minutes and approximately 50 minutes of added features.
'Making of the film' is an engaging watch. Ok, so there are clich?d talks about 'how so and so actor is quote good' or 'how we bonded on the sets' or 'how Rajasthan was one of the characters' etc. etc. but still there are certain comments and behind the scenes happenings which make you give this 23 minutes segment a 'dekko.'
What is interesting though, are honest confessions from producer Ketan Maroo and Abhay Deol. While Maroo admits that he didn't quite understand what the film was all about when narrated the first time around, Abhay gives a candid account of how he was approached by Navdeep Singh when the original actor in the director's mind couldn't be taken on board.
It is surprising though to see Navdeep picking up his favourite scene as the post-love making scene between Abhay and Gul. In spite of the film's essence being a thriller, Gul's line of 'Agar mard ko pallu se bandhna ho to usse bistar pe baandhe rakho' is what Navdeep fondly remembers. However, when producer Ketan Maroo states that "We would give the film full backup; no one would feel that it has been less promoted,? one wonders if the cast and the director of the film share the same sentiments!
In most of the DVDs, one watches 'Deleted Scenes' with utmost attention as more often than not they do turn out to be engaging. But in case of Manorama Six Feet Under, one is indeed content with the fact that none of these scenes eventually made to the final cut.
Thankfully, even after a poor fate at the box office, this film directed by debutant director Navdeep Singh (an established ad film maker) continued to make news even after it's exit from the theatres. Blogs, various forums, pirated DVDs, international awards, recent nominations in various award functions and the biggest of all - continued word of mouth by patrons have all contributed to giving a kick start to Manorama Six Feet Under at the stores as the DVD hits the stands. Got for it to witness a unique storytelling.

[edit] systemd Message Catalog
[edit] Summary
Logging is essential for finding and tracking down system problems. Just finding and tracking them down however is seldom enough to actually get them fixed. With Journal Message Catalogs we want to link helpful meta information directly to many log messages applications generate, keyed off an ID identifying the type of message. This localized meta information can help the user to fix the problem, refer him to additional documentation, or even inform him where to get further help.
[edit] Owner
- Name: Lennart Poettering
- Email: lennart at poettering dot net
[edit] Current status
- Targeted release: Fedora 19
- Last updated: 2012-01-17
- Percentage of completion: 100%
[edit] Detailed Description
Log messages frequently are terse and hence cryptic. Log messages are usually in the english language which is foreign to most people in this world.
With message catalogs applications generating log messages can link up these messages with "Message Catalog" entries via a globally unique ID that identifies the type of message. The Message Catalog contains localized additional information about the terse log message, such as more comprehensive explanations, hints to solve the problem, links to further information, and possible support information, where the user/administrator can ask for more help.
For details see the upstream documentation.
This feature is only about providing the basic building blocks for Message Catalogs, and hooking up systemd itself with it, so that many of systemd's own log messages come with message catalog information. It is out of scope of this feature to patch other software to provide message IDs and message catalog entries, but we'd certainly welcome that.
[edit] Benefit to Fedora
Fedora becomes easier to navigate as help for common problems can be linked up directly with the error messages.
[edit] Scope
Only needs changes in systemd upstream.
[edit] How To Test
Type "journalctl -x" and you should see in-line explanations for selected messages.
[edit] User Experience
Using "journalctl -x" now shows explanations for a number of log messages.
[edit] Dependencies
Would be cool if not only systemd would attach message identifiers to its log messages and ship message catalogs, but if systemd does it we already achieved a lot.
[edit] Contingency Plan
Nothing. This just provides additional meta information for log messages that are irrelevant for general control flow
[edit] Documentation
[edit] Release Notes
It should be enough to just announce availability of this feature, plus a paste from the Summary section of this feature page, plus maybe a reference to the the docs for this.

Concern over food safety record
The Food Standards Agency is calling for a tougher inspection system after an official report showed almost half of the UK's 500,000 food outlets broke health and safety rules last year.
The watchdog says breaches of safety and hygiene rules are on the increase, and the situation is unacceptable.
Breaches uncovered run from dirty floors and filthy work surfaces to cockroaches in food preparation areas.
The agency will meet to discuss the report on Thursday and is expected to recommend tough action, possibly including the introduction of food safety league tables for local authorities.
The FSA was set up by the government earlier this year to oversee the UK's food safety policy and practice.
Tough action
One of its aims is to restore consumer confidence in the food industry following the BSE scandal, the deadly outbreak of e-coli food poisoning in Lanarkshire, Scotland, in 1996 and the latest GM food scares.
FSA chairman Sir John Krebs said consumers expected food bought from restaurants and shops to be safe.
"This study shows that the rules are being broken too many times by the food industry and that we must be sure that local authorities have in place effective advice, inspection and enforcement systems," he said.
"It is not acceptable for the infringements to continue at these levels, nor is it acceptable for consumers not to know how effectively they are being protected."
Consumer groups hope it will ensure that manufacturers, caterers and retailers which do not put safety first are forced to get out of the kitchen.
Local responsibility
But the industry itself says many small catering businesses are in need of government support.
Local authorities have responsibility for enforcing food health and hygiene rules.
The FSA is concerned that infringements have increased over the last three years, but that the number of actual inspections has decreased dramatically.
It believes food outlets are breaking the rules too frequently and that tough, new national enforcement measures are needed to bring about change.
In Scotland the number of inspections rose in the wake of the 1996 e-coli outbreak.

text: This is my first post here, so hello everybody. Can you let me know what's the best bass for metal? Just kidding, I am however hoping to get a bit of advice. I'm a guitarist and currently looking into getting myself a decent bass for my home recording studio (and maybe for some session work as well). Bassist in my band has a Warwick Thumb 5 string bass which sounds absolutely amazing, is comfortable (I'm loving the neck, thin with strings next to each other), sits well within the mix too. The problem is that it's just too expensive. Bass is not my main instrument and I can't justify the cost. So the question is - is there anything out there that's similar to the Thumb and doesn't cost an arm and leg? I keep monitoring ebay for second hand thumbs but so far all of them were too expensive. Thanks!

I'd like to use a Guestbook pluggin (Comment Guestbook is the pluggin name). I've loaded it and the form seems to work, but no comments show up. I've made sure "Allow people to post comments on new articles" it turned on in Settings -> Discussion, but still no comments are showing up. I've also made sure the test comment I wrote was approved. I'm using the most recent version of Flashlight and WP.
Is there a way to have comments show up on a page? And by "page" I mean a Page, not a Post.
Edit page.php then find this code
get_template_part( 'includes/loop', 'page' );
Add this code below
//wordpress function that loads the comments template "comments.php"
comments_template( '/includes/comments.php');
Edit a page, look for Screen Options > Check the Discussion option.
Okay, added the code, but now a comment box is showing up on all my static pages. And I don't see anywhere when editing a page where I can find "Screen Options" and check or uncheck a Discussion option. Can you tell me very specifically, where should I be able to find "Screen Options"?
Found it! The answer would be "top right corner." Thanks!

Interested in a career as an academic neurologist or neurosurgeon? You've come to the right place.
P&S produces more neurologists and neurosurgeons than any other medical school in the United States, according to two studies from a group of physicians from Thomas Jefferson, Temple, and Stanford universities and the University of Miami. The researchers found 79 P&S graduates are currently working as academic neurologists and 40 are currently working as academic neurosurgeons.
Columbia's residency programs in neurology and neurosurgery also rank among the top three in the number of alumni currently working in academia. The neurology program ranks first with 134 alumni; the neurosurgery program ranks third with 31 graduates. The studies were published in the August issues of the Journal of Neurosurgery and the Archives of Neurology.
The research experiences required of neurology and neurosurgery residents at Columbia drives many graduates to seek their own research careers in academic medicine.
Why do P&S graduates gravitate toward academic careers in neurology and neurosurgery?
"For neurology, I think that the single most important factor is the consistently strong clerkship in neurology that all P&S students take," says Timothy A. Pedley, MD, professor of neurology, who chaired the department between 1998 and 2011. Many medical schools only have one- or two-week clerkships in neurology, but P&S has had a five-week neurology clerkship for many decades.
"We have many inspirational clinician-investigators, and when students interact with them in a rich and exciting clinical and research environment, I think they naturally want to become a part of it," Pedley says.
The situation in neurosurgery is similar, according to Jeffrey Bruce, MD, Edgar M. Housepian Professor of Neurological Surgery and director of the residency program. "We have a commitment to medical students to teach them about neurosurgery," he says. All P&S students rotate through a one-week neurosurgery clerkship in their third year.
"Most schools don't do that, because they think the field is too specialized," Bruce says. "But during that week, students' perceptions about neurosurgery change. They learn that many patients do well after treatment, and there's a lot of satisfaction for patients and physicians. Students can come in intimidated by neurosurgery, but the week-long clerkship personalizes the experience and makes it more accessible."
Both fields at Columbia also have strong research programs, important for producing physicians who stay in academia because they want to be at the forefront of medicine and pursue their own research.
"More so than in most schools, we have many students who work in our research labs," says Donald Quest, MD, J. Lawrence Pool Professor of Neurological Surgery. "We have strong research programs, in cerebral vascular disease and neurooncology especially, and many Doris Duke Scholars from other medical schools come here to do their research."
For residents of both programs, research is required. Residents in neurological surgery spend two years of the seven-year program engaged in research, and "by the time they're done, they have a basis for an academic career," says Bruce. In neurology, each resident is paired with a research mentor and NIH-funded training programs are available for residents who want to pursue research as a career.
"We believe strongly that the future of medicine lies in the successful grafting of basic biomedical science to clinical applications, and through their research experiences, our residents are steeped in that philosophy," says Richard Mayeux, MD, Sergievsky Professor and the current chair of neurology. "They get excited by that approach, and most end up staying in academic neurology because they want to develop better treatments for their patients."
Both fields also have a long track record of producing successful academics. At one point in the 1960s, 35 of all neurology department chairs in the country had been trained by H. Houston Merritt, MD, chair of neurology at P&S from 1948 to 1968. And many current faculty members in neurology and neurosurgery are leaders of national organizations.
"Success breeds success," Quest says.

RepairPal is your advocate for car care advice and guidance
Q: Are there any problems with the 97' Bravada to cause it to sputter and die? on 1997 Oldsmobile Bravada
I ahve a 97' Olds Bravada that I bought a few years ago. It ran great when I bought it. One day I filled the gas tank, not long after purchase, and gas poured out. There was a "Mickey Mouse" hose going into the gas tank.(A garden hose to be precise) I took it to a mechanic and he had to replace the fuel pump. After that (and $600 later) I drove it from South Carolina to North carolina, about 3 hrs or so, without a single issue. After awhile I noticed it was sputtering a bit. I had changed out plugs and wires, O2 sensors, fuel filters, fuel pump filter, fuel lines...The truck runs on startup fantastic still, but when it warms up and I go to accelerate, it sputters harshly and stalls. When I shut it down and turn it back on it runs for a few seconds the stalls again. I can't drive 20 feet with it. I need to know what I am missing as far as causes for this. I am awaiting the results for a system code test, but my fther in law is a Mechanic and has been workin on this for almost 6 months to get me back on the road. I read somewhere about a sensor or valve located beneath the fuel injector spider assembly that is a common fuel system problem with this make and model. I need to know "ALL" additional problems with the fuel system that would cause this to happen. There is no loss in fuel pressure at all, but once the accelerator is pressed, it's like there is a huge hole somewhere cutting off the flow of fuel to the injectors. ANY help on this would be appreciated.
Thank you so much,
Thank you so much,
i would look for spark. if it is light or yellowish it needs a igniton module. or a coil is failing from heat or poor grounding. check the wires that ground to back of driver side head also.
Didn't find what you were looking for?

Partners HealthCare to Spin Off Startup Offering Web-based Health-Monitoring Services, Seeks CEO and Investors
Partners HealthCare System, the largest hospital group in Boston, is launching a startup that will commercialize a health self-monitoring system developed by Partners' Center for Connected Health, Xconomy has learned. The planned launch of the company follows a successful pilot trial of its initial Web-based service, called SmartBeat, which allows workers to report and track their blood pressure online to improve their health.
The startup—which is expected be incorporated in the near future and is temporarily being called Connected Health—is on the hunt for a CEO to lead the nascent operation and rally support from investors, says Joseph Kvedar, a dermatologist who serves as director of the Center for Connected Health. When Kvedar last spoke to us in February, he said that Partners was considering ways to spin off SmartBeat as a for-profit service to enable its adoption nationwide. The self-monitoring system proved to be effective at helping patients control their blood pressure in a 2007 pilot trial conducted with Hopkinton, MA-based data storage and management giant EMC (NYSE:EMC), which tested the system with some 400 of its employees.
Kvedar has led efforts to commercialize SmartBeat with Doug McClure, corporate manager of technology and operations at the Center for Connected Health. "The power of connected health is starting to be more mainstream," says Kvedar, a leading voice in efforts to enable the delivery of healthcare outside of traditional clinical settings such as hospitals and doctors offices. "We at the center are doing our best to be agile and opportunistic to respond to what could be our day in the sun—and if we don't respond we could be very disappointed with ourselves."
To use the self-monitoring system, people measure their blood pressure using cuffs linked their computers, which upload their readings to a server. Users can view changes in their blood pressure online, and the system provides automated messages with, say, tips on ways to keep their blood pressure down or warnings that their blood pressure is too high. High blood pressure, or hypertension, is one of the leading reasons for doctor visits, accounting for about 35.7 million visits in the U.S. annually, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. It costs billions of dollars per year to care for hypertension patients, who are at high risk of having heart attacks, strokes, and vision loss.
Connected Health would aim to tap into a fast-growing U.S. disease-management market, which has jumped from $1 billion in 2005 to an expected $2 billion this year, according to market research firm Frost & Sullivan. The Center for Connected Health is already pitching the SmartBeat service to self-insured companies and health plans, both of which would use it to improve the health of their employees or insured members and to reduce medical expenses from doctors' visits and hospitalizations. EMC and Partners HealthCare have already signed on as paying customers.
To be clear, Partners has not yet pulled the trigger on launching and funding the health-monitoring business as a for-profit entity. But Kvedar says that his group has made the decision to pursue the spin-off and he plans to meet with his colleagues and business advisors in the coming weeks to work out the details of the launch. He and his staff are now working with Partners Innovation Fund, the venture arm of Partners HealthCare, to find investors and build an executive team to lead the planned startup. Partners Innovation Fund is also in the process of evaluating the business to decide whether to invest in it, Kvedar says. For his own part, Kvedar plans to keep his job at Partners after the spin-off of the businesses and continue to support the firm as an advisor and board member.

This site was suggested to me by game stores sales representatives.
They were right there are tons of info.
I would even say a little to much for an apprentice father like me.
Anyhow, I am sure the infos i am looking for are in there but where?
I read for 25 hours. I probably learned much more then what I needed.
The worse, is that it is probably not clear enough or never an exact same issue. So what i have tried to do did not work. Now I must ask for help before I do something wrong.
I have a Wii 2008 model RVL-001(USA) serial: LU3707.... that was version 3.3or 3.4U
I Hacked it with Homebreware softmode when it was brand new. It became a 3.2U
It worked find for more then a year but know I do not want to fool around with updates and different installations to keep up with the new games that needs more hacking. I am to old for the fancy PC stuff.
Now I would like to put it back into its original state to update it by Nintendo
I read the forum on putting back your wii to virgin
But I got stuck right away with the first step that refused to upload the title at the end of the procees of wininkoko 4.1
Then I read in enother forum that it had to do with the fact that I probably do not have ios60 patch and in enother that i should start by winikoko 4.0.
Now I said let stop since everything is still running good and lets try to ask for help.
So here I am,If someone feel like helping me up I will greatly appreciate.

CenCorp Joins Viewpointe Check Image Exchange
Central Corporate Credit Union said it has become a Viewpointe Pointe2Pointe customer for check image archiving and exchange.
The $2 billion Southfield, Mich.-based corporate said it anticipated savings of about 30% compared to what it presently pays the Federal Reserve for check processing, according to Dan Maurer, an executive with CenCorp.
The service – which only works with other Pointe2Pointe customers – will handle around 10% of CenCorp's check processing volume, estimated Maurer, who indicated that although the number of Pointe2Pointe institutions is small, many of the nation's biggest banks are involved as owners of Viewpointe, one of the leading providers of check image archiving to financial institutions.
Maurer said the percentage will, of course, increase as Viewpointe signs up more institutions.
"Financial organizations are continually seeking ways in which to connect with other institutions without increasing costs and straining internal resources," said Glenn Wheeler, president, Viewpointe Clearing, Settlement & Association Services, in a statement. "We believe CenCorp members will benefit greatly from being part of this wider network while adding value to all of the members in the Viewpointe community."
"Cutting costs and streamlining operations now are the name of the game," added Jim Zimmerman, CenCorp vice president of marketing.
