The postseason picture cleared up considerably on Monday night, with three American League teams eliminated despite victories as two other berths were decided. The National League picture was also simplified, as the final division flag was claimed, but the last wild-card spot remained in play — albeit barely — as the Cardinals and Dodgers both won. Most of what is still at stake is simply jockeying for position. While the permutations are too numerous to provide detailed analyses of potential matchups on such short order, here's a quick breeze through the possibilities in play.
In the NL, the Nationals (96-64) wrapped up the NL East for the first time in their history. They did so despite losing to the Phillies, 2-0, because the Braves (93-67) lost to the Pirates, 2-1. After news of the latter game's completion, pandemonium broke out in Nationals Park as fan and players began celebrating the team's first division title in their eight-year history in D.C.; the game in front of them became an afterthought. The Nats didn't even lose any ground to the Reds (96-64) as far as the league's best record goes, because Cincinnati wound up losing to the Cardinals (87-73), 4-2 behind Jaime Garcia, who hit a solo homer and tossed 6 2/3 innings of two-run ball to spoil Reds manager Dusty Baker's return to the dugout following a mild stroke.
The Cardinals' victory assured the defending world champions of at least a tie for the wild-card spot, which would necessitate a Game 163 play-in with the Dodgers (85-75), who staved off elimination via Andre Ethier's two-run homer off Matt Cain, and Elian Herrera's bases-loaded walkoff single. In order to survive, the Dodgers — who have won six in a row — need to win both of their remaining games against the Giants (93-67) while the Cardinals lose both of their remaining games with the Reds; they would then host St. Louis for the tiebreaker on the basis of their 6-5 record in the season series. In all, the Baseball Prospectus Playoff Odds give the Dodgers just a 2.5 percent chance of making the postseason — one chance in 40 — half of what it was 24 hours ago.
Not a single playoff matchup is actually locked in as far as the NL slate goes. Either the Nationals or Reds will emerge with the number one seed, and then face the winner of the wild-card game pitting the Braves against either the Cardinals or the Reds in Atlanta. Whichever team finishes with the league's second-best record will face the Giants, and own the home field advantage, though recall that in the first round, that's a whole lot less than it's cracked up to be because the team with the lesser record hosts the first two games.
Looking ahead to potential first-round matchups, from the standpoint of the Nationals, they hold season series advantage against the Braves (10-8), Cardinals (4-3) and Giants (5-1)) but lost out to the Dodgers (2-4), not that any of those are substantial enough to provide much weight; we're in small sample city across the board here. Despite their disadvantage against the Dodgers, they appear to be the more appealing Division Series opponent, because the only way Los Angeles can make it through would be on the coattails of a 10-game winning streak, which isn't likely to be sustained into a postseason series. Furthermore, with Clayton Kershaw scheduled to pitch on Wednesday, the earliest the Nats would face him would be Game 2 of the Division Series. The dropoff from him to the other potential Dodger starters — Josh Beckett, Joe Blanton, Chris Capuano and Aaron Harang — is precipitous, and Beckett, who has at least somewhat rediscovered his form since the trade from Boston (2.93 ERA, 8.0 K/9 in seven starts) is likely to pitch either in Game 163 (on three days' rest) or in the wild-card game, pushing his first Division Series start further back. Among the Nationals starters, Jordan Zimmermann, Gio Gonzalez and Ross Detwiler all fared well against the Dodgers this year, as did the absent Stephen Strasburg; Edwin Jackson didn't make an appearance against them. Gonzalez was less than sharp in four starts against the Braves (4.57 ERA, 5.8 BB/9) but he shut out the Cardinals in his only start against them. Neither Detwiler nor Jackson fared very well in their starts against the Giants and Cardinals, which may make the Braves their more desirable opponent.
The Reds played well against the Braves (5-1) and Giants (4-3), but not as well against the Dodgers (2-4), and they're currently down against the Cardinals (6-7) with two games still to play. They'll have home field advantage for their first series regardless of how they finish the regular season, but they have to balance their desire to attain that goal with the danger of tipping their hand too much against a team they may face again later this week. Cy Young contender Johnny Cueto is likely to get the nod in the Division Series opener regardless of opponent, though he was chased after 4 2/3 innings and six runs allowed by the Braves in his only start against them this season, while Mat Latos, Homer Bailey and Bronson Arroyo all held them in check. Latos was lit for a 9.77 ERA in three starts against the Cardinals; he goes again tonight, and it will be interesting to see how long a leash Baker gives him.
The Braves took their season series with the Cardinals (5-1) but split with the Dodgers (3-3). Either way, they have Kris Medlen lined up to start the wild card game, and they have to like their chances behind him. The 26-year-old righty didn't join their rotation until July 31 and has just 12 starts this year, but he has put up a remarkable 0.97 ERA with an 84/10 strkeout-to-walk ratio in that role, with 10 quality starts and only one outing in which he allowed even three runs. The Braves not only won all 12 of his turns, they won the last 10 games he started in 2010 before undergoing Tommy John surgery. His appearances against the Dodgers and Cardinals this season were in relief, totaling all of 6 1/3 inning back in April and May. His use in the wild-card game would actually be a break for the Nats, in that Medlen dominated them, allowing one run in 14 innings while striking out 20 in starts on August 22 and September 14; the latter was a 13-strikeout effort. By contrast, the more experienced Tim Hudson, who would be lined up to kick off the Division Series for Atlanta, was pounded for a 7.71 ERA in three starts against the Nationals. Hudson was touched for five runs in 5 2/3 innings by the Cardinals back on May 30, and in fact has a long history of being roughed up by the Redbirds, with a career 5.78 ERA in 12 starts against them, which may be one reason why Fredi Gonzalez isn't eying him for the wild-card game. Hudson didn't face the Dodgers this year, and faced them just once last year.
Assuming they don't have to play a tiebreaker, the Cardinals can choose between Kyle Lohse, Chris Carpenter and Adam Wainwright for the wild-card game. Carpenter is the most experienced, but he has just two starts under his belt since returning from surgery to correct for thoracic outlet syndrome, and against weak competition (the Astros and Cubs). Wainwright has been on a roll (a 3.38 ERA and 0.5 HR/9 through his last 20 starts), but it's been suggested that manager Mike Matheny is leaning towards Kyle Lohse, who leads the team in ERA (2.86), innings (211) and quality start rate (73 percent), all by wide margins. Lohse yielded five runs in five innings against the Braves on May 30 opposite Hudson; he had two starts against the Dodgers, one good (July 25, seven innings, two runs) and one so-so (May 20, 5 2/3 innings, 11 hits, three runs).
As for the Giants, they lost out to both the Nationals and Reds, their only two possible Division Series opponents in their season series. They played the latter much more closely (outscored 28-21, compared to 45-24) than the former, and in fact the Nats teed off on both Tim Lincecum and Ryan Vogelsong to the point of hanging double-digit ERAs on them, with none of their combined three starts lasting more than four innings. Lincecum's second start (four innings, four runs) came on August 15, one of his lesser starts amid his second-half resurgence. Matt Cain (6 2/3 innings, three runs on July 5) and Madison Bumgarner (nine innings, one run on August 14) were the only Giants to manage quality starts against the Nats this year, with the latter offset by a July 4 fireworks display in the nation's capitol (five innings, seven runs, three homers). Bumgarner one-hit the Reds in his best start of the year on June 28, while Cain took losses in two starts against them, one quality, one not. Vogelsong had one quality start in two turns against them, while Lincecum didn't face them this season. Barry Zito actually fared the best against the Reds, with two six-inning, one-run turns against them. Barring a surprise from Bruce Bochy, he's not scheduled to start in the first round, though the Giants have won his last 10 starts dating back to August 7.

Dear Richard,
I just wanted to drop you a line and see if you're feeling well these days. I have to admit, I've been a little bit worried about you.
Like many people who help the media place a disproportionate amount of focus on the Arab-Israeli Conflict, I read with great interest your now-infamous U.N. report on the Gaza Conflict of 2009. Now, I know EVERYBODY'S A CRITIC, but I must say, when your report came out a year-and-a-half ago, I did find it a little on the spicy side. I mean, we've done a lot with transistors these days, the capacity to beam images of Hamas rockets being fired indiscriminately out of dense population centers led me to think that maybe things aren't so cut and dry when it comes to asymmetrical warfare. But, since you're the judge, I figured perhaps you had some kind of deliberative fifth gear that rest of us partial plebeians weren't born with.
So you led this fact-finding mission and you authored your report, which was (not surprisingly) praised by U.N. as well as by the majority of the world that already happened to believe that the Israeli army deliberately targets Palestinian civilians. I wish the story ended there and not that one can or should link your extremely significant and heavily publicized report to other events, but the public consciousness about Gaza grew and grew and Israel, perhaps thinking (and not unwarrantedly) that the world did not fully grasp the essence of its conflict with Hamas, acted too obstinately with its blockade and limited imports to Gaza with an almost villainous panache. Next thing we knew, there were ships loaded with aid (and some armed troublemakers too) en route to Gaza, begetting more senseless violence (with some more misappropriated blame). Then came serious strains between Israel and Turkey, the formerly moderating force in the Middle East, followed by more dangerous Israeli isolation, and now a near-resuscitation of hostilities in the form of rockets and mortars from Gaza and targeted assassinations from Israel.
So imagine my surprise when--on April Fool's Day no less!--I encountered your op-ed in the Washington Post essentially reneging your report's entire conclusion about the Israeli army's disregard for civilian life in Gaza! Dick, I know that hindsight is 20/20, but you're giving conspiracy theorist mills a hell of a lot of grist here.
I know Israel acts very improperly sometimes, their extending presence in the West Bank is an affront to the ideals of rational governance and neighborly consideration, members of the Netanyahu administration are veritable caricatures of bulls in the china shops of diplomacy, and that there are still issues of misconduct out of Gaza 2009 to be reckoned with, but make up your mind already. Either it's the worst of humanity or the fog of war. Don't you understand that discourse about this conflict has no place for nuance and reappraisal?
Anyway, please write back when you're able. And, should you manage to not change your mind again, I'd be grateful. I can't start stressing out about Gaza again. It's April and my baseball team is already deep in the cellar; I'm pretty sure I'm still going be disappointed about it eighteen months from now.

Wishing you a disturbing Christmas! Black Mirror set for yuletide special
FORGET cutesy Santa Claus tales and community carolling – this Christmas will be marked with paranoia, horror and dystopian universes.
Charlie Brooker's Black Mirror is set to return this year for a feature-length Christmas special.
The critically-acclaimed series, which shows the dark side of technology and the social media age, will produce a December special called Yuletide, which will follow three interwoven stories, according to the Radio Times.
Creator Brooker said: "I always enjoy a good ghost story at Christmas, and I'm a sucker for the Amicus' compendium horror movies of the 70s. Our aim is to create the Black Mirror equivalent of that."
And Channel 4 promised that the special will be "disturbing" – a perfect antidote to watching Home Alone for the fifteenth time.
"I'm a sucker for the Amicus' compendium horror movies of the 70s"Charlie Brooker
The channels' head of comedy Phil Clarke said: "I'm delighted that we have a Black Mirror Special this Christmas. Charlie Brooker has penned a dystopian future festive tale, that intertwines three stories to deliver a dramatic and thrilling twist. It's satirical, comic, disturbing, and thought provoking. Not to be missed."
The special will be followed up with a standard three-part series in 2015.
Black Mirror first aired in December 2011, beginning with an episode where a fictional prime minister was forced to have sex with a pig on TV in order to save a member of the royal family.
The second series aired in February 2013.
One episode from the first series, The Entire History Of You, could hit the big screen after Robert Downey Jr bought the film rights.

No one was hurt in the fire, but fire damaged the contents of the closet and smoke damaged the bedroom.
The accused is due to appear in Thunder Bay Provincial Court Monday morning.

A council official from the UK who has overseen outsourcing of services and cost-cutting has been chosen as Wellington City Council's new chief executive.
The council voted on Wednesday to appoint Kevin Lavery, chief executive of Cornwall Council in south-west England, to the role.
He replaces Gary Poole who has been chief executive since 1997.
At a closed-door council meeting on Wednesday night, councillors voted 9 - 6 not to reappoint him to the $420,000 a year job. Mr Poole's contract finishes in March.
UK correspondent Olly Barratt told Radio New Zealand's Morning Report programme Dr Lavery has pushed to outsource council services like libraries, payroll services, benefit payments and IT services.
He said some of the proposals proved so controversial that the leader of the council was forced to resign.
One critic, Liberal Democrat councillor Robert Nolan, told Morning Report outsourcing is a particular pet project of Dr Lavery's.
"He doesn't give up on things," Mr Nolan said.
Mr Nolan said Cornwall Council rejected an outsourcing plan two months ago and Dr Lavery came back at the last full council meeting with a slimmed down plan to outsource several services . The council passed the measure by a narrow 50 votes to 46.
The Telegraph newspaper reported last year that Dr Lavery's total pay package in 2010/11 was £245,342.

BAQUBA, Iraq, June 10 (UPI) -- Three bombings killed 15 people and wounded 30 others in Diyala province Monday, an Iraqi Parliament member told CNN.
The bombs targeting a vegetable market exploded in rapid succession, lawmaker Husain Hamham said.
The market is in Jadidat al-Shat, a sub-district near Diyala's provincial capital of Baquba.
Political and sectarian violence have intensified in recent months, causing Iraqi and world leaders to fear Sunni-Shiite tension could mount and bring a return of a full-scale sectarian war.

City council decides on CenterCal for Redondo Beach pier developement
The Redondo Beach City Council voted to award the 15-acre pier waterfront development project to El Segundo-based developers CenterCal Properties LLC last night after a much anticipated question-and-answer session with the three potential developers. Councilmember Bill Brand was the lone dissenter, instead preferring Pacifica Companies for their relationship with the Coastal Commission.
"This is somebody we would pick to date," said Mayor Mike Gin. "We're not consummating a marriage today."
City Staff recommended the council approve CenterCal as the preferred developer because of their expertise with community development projects, their financial backing, ability to retain community authenticity and their history of success engaging the public in their designs.
"We have to show some backbone and make a decision," said Councilmember Steve Aspel. "It's [about] a design yet, there will be community input, you will be engaged. The developer [will] have to listen to everybody."
The council also decided to have two additional outreach meetings in the next two months to provide additional opportunity for public input.
Redondo Beach Council, Harbor Commission and CenterCal will spend the next 24 to 36 months discussing the site planning, design and will conduct an environmental review with many opportunities for public input.
According to the report, the city expects to invest as much as $150 million to $200 million over the next five to ten years in the waterfront development project and expects to generate as much as $4 million to $8 million in new annual revenue from the new retail entertainment and hospitality center.
"We have to stop and think," said Councilmember Bill Brand. "This is a historic moment."
At an earlier council meeting Brand suggested adding another public meeting to talk to the developers before making the final decision, but his request was denied. Residents also asked the council to slow down, many pointing out that the project has been in the works since the fire in 1988, and another couple of months wouldn't make a difference.
"I've been asked why this is taking so long and why we're going so fast," said Councilmember Steve Diels. "This is a public process, things move along at the speed of democracy."
Councilmember Pat Aust reminded residents who had questions about the developer's specific visions, mostly centered on a potential boat ramp, that at this time the council is not picking out "the lawn chairs, we're picking out who's going to pay for the lawn chairs."
The decision to recommend CenterCal as the preferred developer was easy, Waterfront and Economic Development Director Pete Carmichael said before the meeting on Tuesday. "They're the best fit- for a lot of different reasons."
Carmichael explained that CenterCal focuses on retail and entertainment and have an in-house staff that's dedicated to leasing, marketing and event programming. "Which we feel will be a big component," said Carmichael. "Their experience combining retail with hotel and a number of other reasons related to conceptual business plans really makes them the best fit."
Carmichael said that the other two, Lowe Enterprises and Pacifica Companies, are more hotel-driven. Lowe, he said, was proposing a site driven by filling hotel rooms and Pacifica Companies is a mid-marketer of mid-range hotels. "Their expertise, while very good, is not as good a fit for the project our waterfront calls for," said Carmichael. "CenterCal shined, combining hotel and retail… they've shown an ability to attract national and local tenants and mix them in a way that creates an authenticity."
Many residents who spoke to the council echoed the staff report supporting CenterCal. "Redondo Beach truly is an amazing and remarkable place; I support the city staff's recommendation. I don't think we're rushing," said resident Trudy Singer.
Others liked the fact that CenterCal's CEO Fred Bruning and his company's team are local and are invested in the community.
"The city is poised to put itself back on the map like it used to be," said resident and master leaseholder Bob Resnick. "It's an exciting new chapter in the history of Redondo Beach." ER

Intermedia Substitutability and Market Demand by National Advertisers
We assess substitutable and complementary relationships among eight national advertising media classes, as well as the magnitude of their own-price elasticities. We use a translog demand model, whose parameters we estimate by three-stage least squares, based on 1960-94 annual U.S. data.We find aggregate demand by national advertisers for each of the eight media is own-price inelastic, and that cross-price elasticities suggest slightly more substitute than complementary relationships, although both are rather weak. These patterns are consistent with long prevailing institutional arrangements and media selection practices.

Results 11 to 12 of 12
Thread: Slalom Line Issue
There are a lot of elements thatresult in failure to get up. The rope is never one of them.
Most people try to stadn up to soon. Even these big boats need some time to develop horsepower.
Often I see people think they are not getting enough power so they ask for more power and that can be a problem.
Many inexperienced drivers think they need to get you up to speed right away or you will be angry so they rush the throttle.
I have found that training them to watch the tach rather than the speedometer works pretty good. Never rev the tach past where you would normally ski. Instead a steady increase in power up to about 3000 RPM is usually good. If you have speed control like Perfect Pass a steady increase to about 12-18 mph is usually enough and then the PP will kick in and finish.
One other trick that has worked for some (especially if you start on one foot) - do not sit in the water all balled up trying to maintain that perfect starting position while the rope feeds out and the driver gets ready. Float comfortably with your feet well out in front and as the boat starts to pull allow your body to compress into the starting position. This may prevent you from trying to stand too soon and allow the boat to develope some horsepower.
Remember - you can get out of the water in a very squatted position if you want - but you can not if you bury the tip.
You do not need a 10 section rope. Unless you have some crazy good skiers you hang with. Having said that - I have one and love tinkering with short line - but my coach hates it when I do.
Good luck - and avoid skiing on the tower - most boats are not really designed to handle slalom from the tower.
Have Fun
DaveIf you believe something to be true, it will be - in it's consequences.

Brian - as usual the Forum has given lots of good info...I only have one additional note. Focus on putting down pressure on the ball of your foot (back leg) this will help keep the tip of the ski up early in the pull as you work to get up on the water. If you are using a double boot leave the binding a little loose to allow the heel of your back foot to lift up as you apply down pressure on the ball of your foot. This is what my two sons and I use (focus on) and as the others have noted, hold on and the rest will happen. Mike2003 Outback
Boat name = Lynn Syndrome
Its a condition that runs in the family...Judy Lynn (mother-in-law) Heather Lynn (wife) & Megan Lynn (daughter)...no known cure...but the boat helps
New boat for me on 10/9/10.

As to ruining normal programming, so do political speeches, conventions, other major sports events, awards shows, etc., etc., ad nauseam. Some are worth pre-empting normal programmings; others aren't. Which is which would be a matter of personal preference, I think.
Hey can we get a thread retitle or something? "Tonight" is a floating target, and I almost freaked for a moment seeing it at the top again. Can't this just be renamed as a general "scheduling" topic if we're still talking here?

Sir Reginald wins at Newmarket
Richard Fahey's Sir Reginald won the £150,000 Tattersalls Millions 3-Y-O Sprint at Newmarket on day one of the Craven meeting.
Gelded over the winter, the Jim McGrath-owned son of Compton Place was well backed by punters who sent him off at 4-1.
Paul Hanagan was involved in a bit of scrimmaging with Richard Hills and Madany (7-1) inside the last quarter mile with the Hamdan Al Maktoum filly coming off second best.
She stayed on well to lose by less than a length at the line, but while the stewards' klaxon sounded there was never any danger of the result being reversed.
Khor Seed (100-30 favourite) was a neck off Madany in third.
"I'm so pleased for Jim, as he was basically sold to Hong Kong but he had a tiny little cyst, which meant he couldn't go there," explained Fahey.
"We tried to win the sales races with him last year and he's finally hit the jackpot and Jim wins £83,000 today.
"This has been the target for a long time - it was his Derby."

New Delhi, Dec 11 (IANS) Jack Daniel's Distillery has announced the launch of Jack Daniel's Sinatra Century in India, the brand's latest collaboration with the Sinatra family to celebrate the centennial of legendary singer Frank Sinatra.
This one-time, limited release will be available exclusively at the Mumbai and Delhi duty-free shops from this month.
Only 100 barrels are being made available globally in individually numbered bottles.
The relationship between Frank Sinatra and Jack Daniel's is legendary, and one that still holds strong to this day.
First recommended by friend Jackie Gleason, the Tennessee Whiskey quickly became Frank Sinatra's signature drink. During performances, he kept a glass of Jack Daniel's on a nearby stool on stage.
It was his drink of choice at bars in his favourite cities, Las Vegas, Palm Springs, Chicago, Miami and New York.
Master distiller Jeff Arnett created Sinatra Century through the careful selection of specially crafted barrels.
Tasting his custom selections with the Sinatra family, he sought a bold, refined flavour that is befitting Sinatra's legacy.
"At the Jack Daniel's Distillery in Lynchburg, we worked very hard to achieve a special flavour and aroma for Sinatra Century in order to give Frank a proper 100th birthday gift," Arnett said in a statement.
"This meant working with the people who knew him the most, his family, and honouring the legacy that he has shaped with our brand. We have created a product that we know the public will love just as much as Frank did," he added.
Frank Sinatra's son Frank Sinatra, Jr. said: "Sinatra Century is a fitting tribute to dad and the perfect way to mark his centenary in December. Jack Daniel's was dad's drink of choice, whether entertaining friends, or making new acquaintances."
"Therefore, it only seems right that we raise a toast of Sinatra Century to the musical legend as we celebrate what would have been his 100th birthday this year."
Each exclusive bottle of the whiskey will be enclosed in a luxury gift box inspired by the legendary singer's signature style.
Additionally, the set will also offer a selection of previously unreleased Sinatra track, entitled "Sinatra live at the sands in 1966″, to accompany the specially designed bottle.

Generation Cures
Wee Are the World: Generation Cures
Children are the future so I was surprised to learn that while youngsters represent 20 percent of the US population, a much smaller fraction of national funding is allotted to finding cures for pediatric illnesses. Children's Hospital Boston, one of the most well-known children's hospitals in the country, hopes to raise awareness of this issue, and financial support for medical research, through their web-based philanthropic community for kids.
Generation Cures offers stories, games and original kid-directed video content to inspire kids to care about others, understand the concept of giving and believe they can make a difference in the world. Their fun animated series Zebrafish explains how researchers study disease from the perspective for a children's rock band. And Caduceus continues the story through an adventure game. Parents are encouraged to use the site to continue the conversations started online with their children and hopefully lend their support to the cause.

2013 Nissan Juke
Choose Nissan Juke Style:
C/D Overview:
Nissan's kooky Juke may be based on the Versa econocar, but with its giant-Reebok styling, you'd never know it by looking. The well-equipped interior also belies its modest roots, though it could still benefit from more refinement. Still, there are few cars extant with more character than the Juke.
Base Price: $19,780 - $26,780
Surprisingly powerful, lots of features for the money, tons of character.
Weird-looking, short on space and interior refinement.
What's New
Introduced for 2011, unchanged for 2013.
Behind The Wheel
The Juke is generally fun to drive around town, with buckets of power available from its tiny turbocharged engine, made even more fun with the available manual transmission. Snug handling belies its high-riding stance.

Reshuffled Padres descend on spring camp
Reshuffled Padres descend on spring camp
Glance at the name plate.
"Hopefully, they're sitting in front of their locker so all you have to do is just look up and see who they are," said Bell, the Padres' two-time All-Star closer.
Introductions were certainly in high demand Sunday as pitchers and catchers reported to the Peoria Sports Complex. The first official workout is scheduled for Monday.
On Sunday, though, it was get-to-know-your-teammate day, as players passed in and out of the clubhouse on their way to and from taking physicals.
Travel packages
Spring Training schedule
The Padres have undergone a dramatic roster shuffle from the end of last season -- when they won 90 games and finished one victory shy of the postseason.
How dramatic?
The Padres could have as few as nine players on their 25-man Opening Day roster who were a part of it a year ago.
"It's a different roster than last year," Padres general manager Jed Hoyer said. "We had a lot of turnover, but I like our depth and balance. We are a more talented roster."
Many of those new faces -- like pitchers Aaron Harang and Chad Qualls and catchers Rob Johnson and Gregg Zaun -- showed up early Sunday to get their physicals and meet their new teammates and coaches.
Harang, a San Diego native who is looking forward to pitching for his hometown team, arrived in Peoria last week to get acclimated.
"There's been a few guys who have shown up in the past week," Harang said. "I'm really looking forward to it. It seems like guys are itching to get started."
Position players -- old and new -- will report on Friday with the first workout set for the following day.
That first full-squad workout on Saturday will mark the first time the Padres have been on the field together since the regular-season finale in October.
But this team will look little like the one that surprised the baseball world in 2010 -- and the Padres think that's a good thing.
Hoyer spent the winter dealing from a position of strength, trading away relief pitchers, to upgrade the offense and defense.
Hoyer's efforts to make the Padres stronger up the middle saw him acquire or sign three players -- second baseman Orlando Hudson, shortstop Jason Bartlett and center fielder Cameron Maybin -- who he's convinced will fare well, especially in a ballpark like PETCO Park where runs are precious commodities.
"The positions we were weak last year, we're better at now," Hoyer said.
For as busy a winter as the Padres had, one that included trading All-Star first baseman Adrian Gonzalez, Hoyer is expecting a relatively quiet spring.
"Barring injuries, we have a pretty good idea what the club is going to look like," Hoyer said. "We don't have competitions all over the diamond, which is a good thing."

In another huge week for wearables, we round up the biggest news from a busy MWC and GDC.
If you've not been paying attention this week, you have missed a lot. Let us catch you up.
MWC went wearables crazy
At CES back in January we saw literally hundreds of wearables companies exhibiting, yet very few AAA devices from the big players. At MWC in Barcelona this week, the big boys came to play.
New devices were outed from Pebble (more on that shortly), LG, Huawei, and two from HTC including the shocking announcement that it would be making the HTC Vive – Valve's first SteamVR headset.
It was a productive show, and you can get all the news and definitive first looks at the new devices at our MWC hub page. With all these new devices to choose from, make sure you check out our round up of the best smartwatches and best Android Wear apps.
Sony Morpheus details revealed
While HTC was taking the wraps off its HTC Vive in Barcelona, Sony was limbering up for an epic three hour session at GDC in San Francisco – the annual meetup for the games industry. While it cooled speculation on Project Morpheus last year, it used GDC to reveal more than ever about its VR headset.
An upgraded screen and some seriously impressive tech specs have made the Morpheus a serious player. Check out our guide to Project Morpheus and also our comparison piece with Sony's Morpheus vs Oculus Rift.
If that doesn't sate your hunger for all things virtual, check out our round up of the best VR headsets and top Oculus Rift games.
Pebble Time Steel looks like Apple Watch
With the Pebble Time released last week, the company took everyone slightly off guard by announcing the Pebble Time Steel, its upmarket counterpart and – oh boy, does it look like the Apple Watch!
We don't think there's any mistake in the choice of colours and styling, and worryingly for Apple, Pebble's watch is $150 cheaper too.
If you're wondering which is best then you simply must read our Apple Watch vs Pebble Time head-to-head, and our interview with Pebble boss Eric Migicovsky.
Xbox games coming to HoloLens
Microsoft also had something to say about HoloLens this week, and it's great news for gamers. The company has revealed that Xbox games will definitely figure on the headset. While it somewhat takes the heat out of the Xbox VR headset rumours, it makes HoloLens one of the most exciting all rounders.
Crowdfund this
This week's wearable crowdfunding tip is for AmbyGear, which is looking for $50,000 for its kid's smartwatch. It features GPS treasure hunts, and kids can earn reward points for attending lessons and clubs.
And seeing it's been such a big week for crowdfunded wearables, we've also rounded up the biggest success stories to date. Enjoy.

Sporting Kansas City defeated D.C. United 2-0 on Wednesday night to get their first win of the 2013 Disney Pro Soccer Classic. SportingKC.com caught up with goalkeeper Eric Kronberg and forward Soony Saad after the match to get their thoughts. A full recap of the match is available here.
Eric Kronberg
On the match
I think we played very well tonight. We played very well out of the back and created some chances up front as well. I was fortunate to get the start and I'm definitely happy with the result.
On preseason and team getting ready for start of season
I think we're definitely getting close. Tonight we put in a great performance against a good team. Everything's coming together. The new players that have come into the team are all playing really well and starting to click and understand our system. I think we'll be set for the beginning of the season.
Soony Saad
On scoring 84th minute goal
It was good pressure from us. We ended up winning the ball in their half and I was anticipating it. They stepped up the line and I kind of ran along the line and Peterson Joseph sent me through. Sometimes that's onside, sometimes its off, and I was fortunate to be onside. I just knew to be calm around goal and slip it past the goalkeeper and we were up 2-0.
On preseason
I feel like it's a different year. This is my third year in and I feel confident in any front three position I play whether it's the right, left, or center. I feel like I can score some goals this year and I will. I'll work as hard I can and fight and be aggressive and really go for it and push for some time.
On the match
This game we really moved the ball around. We really played how we play, keeping the ball, and looking to make them tired. We ended up getting two goals and it was a convincing victory. We didn't let up a goal.

Hi. I want to convert many DVD folders (VIDEO_TS) on my HDD to any acceptable format. Well, I guess best way is to use orginal codec without recoding, I mean MPEG. So, all I need is just change the container. I've read that "MPEG Streamclip" software would be usefull for this.
But when I tried to save MPG file, I saw that MPG file size less than original VOB. Well, may be DVD container info so excessive. But it has another resolution! For example, I have DVD with 352x480 vidoe, convert it to MPG and it has 384x480 resolution.
Any guesses?
P.S. Sorry for my english ))

Chesapeake Utilities Corporation announced the sale of the assets of its Michigan water treatment and conditioning dealership, EcoWater Systems of Michigan, Inc. (doing business as Douglas Water Conditioning), bringing the total number of dealerships sold to four. The dealership has two operating locations, one in Waterford and one in Fenton, Mich.
The assets of the dealership were sold to three individuals including Jerry Tiefenback, a former owner. The sale of the dealership assets is another step taken by Chesapeake to address the challenges of its water services business. Strong performance and growth in the company's core energy operations, while continuing to focus on the challenges of the water services business, should provide opportunities for improved returns in the future.
Chesapeake previously sold the assets of its Venice, Fla., (Absolute Water Care, Inc.) dealership on June 3; the assets of its Rochester, Minn., (EcoWater Systems of Rochester, Inc.) dealership on June 30; and the assets of Sharp Water of Idaho, Inc., (Intermountain Water with locations in Moscow and Boise) on July 31 (Moscow assets) and October 1 (Boise assets).
"We are committed to improving the operational and financial performance of the company," said John R. Schimkaitis, president and chief executive officer of Chesapeake Utilities Corp. "We are continuing to evaluate our options for the two remaining water services businesses." The two remaining dealerships are located in Salisbury and Westminster, Md.
Chesapeake's strategy is to grow earnings from its utility foundation by investing in related businesses and services that provide opportunities for higher, unregulated returns. This growth strategy includes acquisitions and investments in unregulated businesses as well as the continued investment and expansion of the company's utility operations that provide a stable base of earnings.

This post is dedicated to college students everywhere who are on spring break
Do you think that the only place to see Paris and the Eiffel Tower is in France? It's not! This bronzed beauty can be found all over the world, sometimes even in your own back yard. For the spring breakers this year who didn't get the awesome Twenty in Paris reader discount at WSA Europe (which is not too late btw)- to travel to Paris for spring break, you may not have to go far to get a little Paris wherever you are.
The many Eiffel Towers of the World range in height from 10ft (3 m) to its exact height of 1,102ft (336m); most serve as either decoration in a park or a communication tower on top of a building (photos courtesy of http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/08/19/replicas-eiffel-tower_n_3721294.html)
The United States may have a love-hate relationship from time to time with our French brethen but we sure do love Paris! Here is a list of all the American states that are proud to call Paris a part of their state.
So if you find yourself in: Harbin, China; Minato Tokyp, Japan; Las Vegas, NV- USA; Nagoya, Japan; Ismaning, Bavaria- Germany; Berlin, Germany; Shenzhen, China; Hangzhou, China; Mason, Ohio; Doswell, Virgina; Lyon, France; Guatemala City, Guatemala; Prague, Czech Republic; Gomex Palacio Durango , Mexico; Slobozia, Romania; Praizh, Chelyabinsk Oblast, Russia; London, England- UK; Sydney, Australia; Fayetteville, North Carolina -USA; Copenhagen, Denmark; Varna, Bulgaria; Torrejon, Spain; Lake Buena Vista, FL- USA; Paris, Texas- USA; Paris, Tennessee- USA; Messinia, Greece; Atlanta, Georgia; Brussels; Rajasthan, India; Brisbane, Australia; Montmartre Saskatchewan; Austin, Texas- USA; Uman, Ukraine; Paris, Michigan- USA; Baku, Azerbaijan- celebrate your spring break in Paris, no matter what part of the world you're in
As always please fun and safe spring break. Check back next week for a pre-release giveaway of up-coming study abroad book The Paris Diaries: The Study Abroad Experience Uncensored with WSA.

Increasing global demand for Bristol-Myers Squibb's anti-HIV drugs Sustiva and Zerit could soon outpace production capabilities and result in shortages of the medications, particularly in developing countries, The Wall Street Journal reports. The spike in demand has three main causes, analysts say: large-scale purchases of the drugs through the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief; similar bulk buys by programs funded by the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria; and the recent withdrawal of two generic versions of the drugs from the market after the World Health Organization rescinded its approval of the medications.
Officials at BMS and drugmaker Merck, which markets Sustiva in developing countries, acknowledge that there could be potential shortages in the near future and say the companies are committed to ensuring that HIV patients currently on antiretroviral therapy continue to get the medications. The Journal reports that HIV patients in developing countries who seek antiretroviral therapy might have to wait for access to Sustiva and Zerit or be forced to use other anti-HIV medications until the shortages end. Officials at BMS and Merck say the length of the expected shortages is unknown because of rising demand for the medications.

Last week, we asked you…
The Score: If There Was a New 3rd Party Exclusive Unveiled at E3, What Would it Be?
Head below and find out what you had to say.
Our Favorite Responses
I would love it to be another Resident Evil game or a new Monster Hunter built from scratch using the Wii U\'s capabilities…
– Fresnokila
Perhaps I want to see Mega Man revived by Nintendo, but thats pretty much impossible.
Okami is what I want, a brand new Okami full with Japanese culture and folklore. Graphics could be kept the same since its beautiful anyway, it fits the wii U gamepad well since you can\'t argue that the game doesn\'t register your circle because you draw on the gamepad.
– Cynfishen
Monster Hunter 5
– James Henderson
– Caleb Potter
I\'m going to go with my Original 3rd party Exclusive call and say Shenmue 3. Sega has already stated they are going to show 3 games for Wii U at E3. It would be a challenge to do the Q.T.E. on the Gamepad only. Also, if they provided a Big map on the Gamepad, then (ala Etrian Odyssey) the player could mark buildings and spots visited so they don\'t get as lost as on Shenmue 2.
Runners up: No More Heroes 3: (excessive title to be announced), Valkyrie Chronicles 4, Tales of XXXXX, Capcom vs Nintendo, Zombie U 2 (that $100 Million Investment had to go somewhere), Armored Core Pad, or Half-Life 3. Beyond Good And Evil 2. Beyond what I could even fathom of naming- – – some Marvelous RPG game on Wii U. XSEED RPG Reveal. And I didn\'t even mention Platinum Games at All 🙂
– David K
As a few others have said, definitely Okami 3. The novelty of Okami has already been ruined by a sequel, so we may as well have a third that does the thing properly. More stories and adventures in that world would be marvelous, and the Gamepad is a no-brainer. I do hope that if they do this, the actual story is largely unrelated to the others.
– Jono 81
:/ how about Vanquished 2
– Jorge Adolfo Gonzalez Krasnohira
3rd party exclusive on nintendo consoles? never heard of them… except for zombiU.
So it\'s either from ubisoft or someone else (platinum games but they are more like 2nd party)
if not then idk maybe we will not see another 3rd party dev make an exclusive game except for sega, platinum and WB (lego city) which are close to nintendo
– DimitraGiorgiou
There HAVE been examples of such exclusives (albeit timed ones): TALES OF SYMPHONIA, FRAGILE DREAMS, ARC RISE FANTASIA…. I\'m sure we\'ll see SOMETHING from the East.
– JonTurner
Best dream ideal scenario(s)?
1) Portal/Half-Life 1+2, Team Fortress 2, declaration of Steam support for the console – with the announcement of Chell or ATLAS+PBODY being added to Smash Bros.
1) ANYONE who wants to produce a *quality,* translated port/remake of Mother 3 – especially as it would increase the odds of Lucas appearing in the next Smash Bros.
2) Anything from Daisuke Amaya [creator of Cave Story] – along with the announcement of either Quote or Quote+Curly Brace being added to the new Smash Bros.
3) This may not count, but – since it could be part of Namco\'s job – I want confirmation of DLC characters for Smash Bros. 4!
4) Anything 3rd-party treatments of 1st-party franchises, especially from WayForward, NICALiS, Gaijin Games and/or Next Lvl. Games (are they 3rd-party?)
– Brody C
Make Tales of Symphonia Chronicles as a exclusive, screw PS3
– Chris Goodman
Fatal Frame 5
– Alsallal
what would I want it to be… or what would it most likely be
what it could be… any big game (probably japanese) that has fallen through the cracks because it doesn\'t sell 5 million copies… good possibilities… time splitters, devil\'s third (has been rumored, kind of faded away into obscurity)
but I would be mroe excited about soemthing that I don\'t know about… for example… I think SOMEBODY should try and recreate dragon quest…. not literally re-create it… but the idea of making an ambitiously large rpg with the input and art direction of a top manga-ka (with dragon quest it was akira toriyama who made dragon ball and dr slump… for todays day and age it would have to be Eichiro Oda of One Piece fame) and then make it into a franchise that doesn\'t ever abandon its formula or the people in charge of it… it was such an amazingly successful strategy that simply cannot fathom why it hasn\'t been replicated… my dream 3rd party wii u exclusive would be a level 5 developed rpg with character design and input from eichiro oda, music by Hiroyuki Sawano (attack on titan, x), and with creative input from shigeru miyamoto
and if not that… how about shadow hearts 4? (sadly impossible)
– themightyme
Okami sequel.
– Geoffrey Kappenberg
Devils Third
– Rafael Rosa
That\'s a toughy because this is such an unpredictable topic. But for the record, if there IS an exclusive, I hope it\'s from the Eastern third party side of the planet. I dunno, maybe another RESIDENT EVIL? Or DEVIL\'S THIRD? Or an exclusive MGS?
(I know, I know, wishful thinking, but hey, can ya blame me?)
– Jon Turner
Bayonetta2! !!!!
– Erick Martinez
Killer instinct
– Marvin Carranza
I would love Okami 3.The series itself is great, but Okamiden ended by the narrator saying \"this is but one story\". I would love to see more stories in that world. Also, the gamepad is suited perfectly for drawing and would probably be the best use of it so far.
– Ryan Crittenden
me personally, devils third, devil may cry 5, or Dare I say it…MegaMan! The latter would suit ninty to the ground, and destroy fanboys.
– bassment_boy
If I wanted it to be something, it would probably be a Chrono Trigger sequel or FFVI 3D HD remake or something. If I were to expect a third party exclusive? Hello Kitty Adventures 😛
– ASuch

Complaint Review: Auto Spa Express

midvale, Utah
- Phone: 8017480800
- Web:
- Category: Auto Service Stations
Auto Spa Express, Auto Spa scam, misconduct, mistreat employees, not pay employees, midvale Utah
*Author of original report: UPDATE/CORRECTION***
Auto spa express in midvale is not a legitamate business they offer customers "special deals" that they pressure customers to sign up for and make it almost impossible to cancel when it charges them every month for the same deal they are no longer interested in.
Cars do get damaged in there wash all the times i have seen an xterra go through and the roof almost got ripped off (and yes roof's have been severly damaged in the past) because the roof brush came down and got caught i've seen mirrors get torn off mini vans from there side brushes antennas get ripped off and bent and rear lights fall off of SUV's. when this happens they rarely offer compensation to the customer.
there wash options are way overpriced they charge you 7$ for a wash down that will not get all the salt off the bottom and doesn't wash the back of your vehicle well where you could do it yourself for 5$ at another wash. [continued below]....
and to mention the way they treat there employees they offer commisions to their employees to pressure people into buying more expensive car washes, to compensate them for theyre bad hourly wage, which they only take away for any reason they can find, they constantly yell at their employees for how bad of a job they do, and only hire them for 4 hour shifts even if they live far away. the worst part is they're attitude they don't see they're employees as coworkers they see them as a nuissance and treat them that way i've seen the owner that is usually on site ask his employee (((Redacted unnecessary language))) call him a "f****** p****" and to give you an idea of there morals and what they care about he says things like "i go to the gym to get p****" and has shown 17 year old girls a picture of him with his shirt off when he was about 19 to show them how "jacked" he was.

auto spa is a great business. they're special deals are some of the best in town for only $24 you can show off your car everyday at work and have unlimited washes, you can cancel it easily by just asking them and that's all.
yes every now and then a car part does get removed in the wash (happens at most washes or would happen anyways) when it is loose due to how good of a job the scrubber's do compared to other washes but can easily be put back on or they will make sure you leave happy. they're 7$ wash does a great job for the money sometimes they will even scrub the back or spots they are not 100% sure of will come off their carnuba wax is the best in utah the other wash that has is it in utah is more bubbly and will not cover it completely it's the same wax they use on boats to protect it so it's pretty hard. the acid they use to clean the car is extremely minimal compared to other washes they turn it so low because the scrubbers do such a good job other washes will lather your car in it and then spray it off. also instead of just paying there attentands minimum wage they went above and beyond to create a reward/ deduction system for them to earn even more money when they do good or bad. they also offer free air fresheners, glass cleaner, leather polish, and rags to dry off your car free of charge, unlike any other wash.
due to the 4 hour shifts they are able to help many younger people out who have busy schedule's instead of letting a couple people hog the hours. isntead of saying they pressure people a better would would be offer people a better wash e.g: someone has a ton of salt on the car and they want a 7$ wash the attendant will offer kindly let them know the $10 wash will get all the corrosive salt off the bottom. and as for the things the owner has said they were taken out of context disregard them
i had no intend of publishing a false statement that is damaging to a person's reputation
i was angry and wanted people to know the truth about this company expressing my right of free speech and after reevaluating what i wrote i can see that i was blinded by anger over something small and due to the inability to take it down would like to compensate and say they actually do do an incredible job many many people are impressed with there service. they are great people that offer a great service. and i do plan on washing my own personal vehicle there.

I love this time of year. In most places it's warm enough to open up the windows and let the cool breeze in. There's just something about being able to air out your home that already makes it feel cleaner. I do a little Spring cleaning but I don't have a lot to do because I stick to a regular cleaning schedule throughout the year. I made this Cleaning Schedule Printable for you to use also. The link to print it is at the bottom of this post.
I printed mine out in 2 different sizes. One for the side of the fridge and one for my day planner. I actually use the one in my day planner most of the time, but I'm in the kitchen a lot so I use it for reference. It also comes in handy for me to give the kids extra chores.
Trim the papers to size then laminate them so you can use a dry erase maker to check off the chores as you do them. I use clear shelf liner to laminate the sheets. It's really inexpensive and comes in a big roll. Sandwich the cleaning schedule between 2 pieces of laminate then trim the laminate just slightly larger than the paper.
The schedule on the side of the fridge is 8×10 size, just for reference.
I laminated the cleaning schedule inside the front cover of my planner by cutting the laminate slightly larger than the sheet and placing it on top, smoothing it out as I attached it. I made this sheet 4×6 to fit in my planner easily.
I use a dry erase marker to check off the chores as I do them. Once a new day, week, or month starts I wipe it off and start over again. I also added "Don't Put It Down Put It Away"on the sheet as a reminder. Most clutter happens because we just lay something down where it doesn't belong. You will save a lot of time by taking just a minute to put things where they actually belong.
I hope this Cleaning Schedule Printable helps you as much as it does me.
If you would like to use the printable for yourself, just click the link above the print. Printables are for personal use ONLY and are available to subscribers of Organize & Decorate Everything. SUBSCRIBE NOW to get full access to all printables. I would recommend getting the posts delivered by email.
I have had a few questions about sizing the printables. If you save the printables to your computer you can then select the size you desire before you print them out.
If you would like to see more printables for you personal use check out these pinterest boards full of awesome prints:

I've had this in the cabinet for a while, and feel this need to drink everything I can't give away. It's alright. I don't have a super refined palate (yet!), but the mangosteen and peach are pretty indistinguishable, just a light "fruity" flavor.

When the moon is full or new, I keep an eye out for large earthquakes. On January 1, 2011, the beginning of the New Year, the moon was waning 6% of full.
On this day was a 7.0 magnitude earthquake in Santiago Del Estero, Argentina. Luckily the quake was deep beneath the earth and did little damage.
Saturday, January 01, 2011 at 09:56:59 (UTC) – Coordinated Universal Time
Saturday, January 01, 2011 at 06:56:59 AM local time at epicenter
Northern Argentina hit by 7.0 quake
Will there be any more earthquakes to follow?
On January 2 a powerful 7.1 earthquake hit Chile. This is a day after the 7.0 earthquake in Argentina. Both happened as the moon waned new, the Chile earthquake occurring when the new moon was 1% of full. The time was Sunday, January 02, 2011 at 20:20:18 UTC. 7.1-magnitude earthquake hits Chile
I focus on major earthquakes. Minor ones happen daily. But on Jan. 3 there was a 4.5 earthquake in Southern Utah as the moon was at 0% of full, or completely dark. Earthquake Rattles Southern Utah
It is curious that this has happened just before a partial solar eclipse on January 4. Quite curious! Partial solar eclipse visible over Mideast, Europe

It's great to see so many bloggers participating linkys and blog hops but it would be great to use the same concept. Wouldn't it be great to use that among our targeted crowd, of people who understand and appreciate Meatless Mondays, to further our community through one dedicated to the topic. That's why this blog was created, not for an individual but for the community that has been forming among vegetarians online.
So please tell your friends and spread the word to other bloggers…. this will be the place to come each week to post your link and to discover others who are active in the meatless Monday cause no matter what day of the week you post it — either recipe suggestions, posts on the week's meals, nutrition information, etc.
Here are the basics:
- A new page for links will go live each Sunday evening (US eastern timezone).
- The page will remain active until the following week's goes up. And over time, a great resource will be built.
- It would be great if you would help direct your readers back here to discover the others participating.
Thanks and have a great week!
