The majority of apartments in Tennessee for rent are medium sized and come with the standard utilities. That means standard furniture, plumbing, lighting, etc. For most renters that mean an impersonal place, they cannot change without the approval of the landlord. Plus, rentals have little storage space and, with your stuff lying around in the rooms, the place can look smaller than it is. There are some clever ways to make your rental look and feel bigger without investing too much money or time in it. Here are some interesting ideas for you!
One thing to do in your entire house is to make it look bigger with the help of open space and light and avoid clutter, darkness or shadow. Light can be obtained through many ways, but one thing you can do to enhance the space in the rental is to use mirrors. These reflect light and make the room feel bigger. Forget about only displaying mirrors in the bathroom or the bedroom, you can add them in the living space as well. You will be amazed how good space will look after that!
Most of the rental apartments out there are usually painted in white. While this is a good thing for space, because it makes it look bigger, it can get boring or impersonal. Replacing white with some light, warmer colors will give your rental a unique touch without making it feel cluttered or smaller than it is. Choose beige, dove white, china white or any light color with white in it to make your rental feel a little warmer and bigger at the same time!
To give a great contrast to the rooms without making them feel small, you can add a darker floor that contrasts with the walls. The trick is that a darker floor will create contrast which will create a warm atmosphere in the room and make it look more spacious. Plus, the walls will look taller, which will make the entire room look better. Add colorful rugs for a unique touch!
Someone bedroom apartments in Murfreesboro TN look very small, and it seems there is nothing you can do about it. But you can! A smart thing you can pull off when living in a rental is to remove doors from the house to make the rooms look bigger. Small rooms will instantly seem bigger, and space will be totally transformed. Keep the doors only for the bathrooms and remove them from the house. You will enjoy a much larger apartment after that!
Therefore, living in a small rental is not the end of the world. There are solutions to make it feel and look bigger without investing a fortune in it. If you just take into consideration all these great tips, you will end up feeling very comfortable in your renewed apartment!

I just started to watch this series, season one and boy is it interesting. I've always loved zombies movies but to see more in depth the stories of people living through it is way out there.
Anybody else enjoying this?
Love it. Haven't seen the latest one yet.
Cable has been out, missed last night's episode! I'm pissed!
The Walking Dead is an incredible series, the best zombie series without a doubt. Despite having no clear start and end of the plot, they've managed to keep it interesting throughout.

First two seasons are available on Netflix. I gave it a 5 star rating.
I have just finished the fifth episode, and it was okay-to-good. The characters and dialogues are well written, because you care, the story is what you would expect, but solid, the gameplay is minimal, consoleish and very restricted (hammering the "A" button being a staple), and the choices are mostly illusionary. It's more a digitized gamebook (if you shoot, turn to page 56, if you run, turn to 89) than a full-fledged game.
It made me think about the shift of the main hero consistent with the aging average gamer. A decade ago, it were all young daredevils conquering something or seeking revenge, now the main hero is usually an aging guy protecting a child/family (Heavy Rain, Deadlight, Walking Dead).
Overall, it was an enjoyable, casual experience for me (except for episode 2 which was slightly nauseating). The ending is emotionally strong, but predictable.
EDIT - oh, this is about the TV series, I was talking about the game. Never mind
There's been a couple epic episodes this season as well as a couple snoozers.
Overall it's been really good.
And just like the previous seasons, no character is safe from death or re-death which is another compelling part of the series.
We like watching the Talking Dead after each episode too.
Following and loving it since Episode 1. As I can't wait for the german episodes which air one week after the english ones I always watch the english ones.
I think, they got better with every season.
I read the comic book before the show. I'm a big Kirkman fan. His OTHER comic book, Invincible, is my favorite series of all time. I jones for it every month.
Just begun with the comics.
Is the game "The Walking Dead" based on this season?
Love the show! Watched them on Netflix numerous times, and try to catch the new ones on AMC when I can (or remember to use my DVR).
I hate some of the choice made (killing off cast members).......but I'm sure that is due to keeping true to the original (comic series).
Hint: "series link"
I'm hooked! Seen every episode......
Been hooked since day one!
The series is been re-shown in B&W even more effective!
You might enjoy my story I just published on Amazon.com called You Had Me at Zombie.
It isn't a true zombie story but its about a girl who likes dressing up as a zombie and the guy who likes her! There is also 5 pages of an actual zombie story inside.
[spam link removed - Admin]
Ya!! I also like zombies movies mostly & have watched a lot of movies till a day..Have watched The Walking Dead a lot of time too horrible movie..Love Zombies Movies!!
@go anna: The game walking dead has video playthrus on YouTube. Also, wika has plot summaries.

If you believe there is an error on your credit report, be sure to submit a specific dispute with the proper bureau. Along with a letter describing the error, submit the incorrect report and highlight the disputed information. The bureau must start processing your dispute within a month of your submission. If a negative error is resolved, your credit score will improve.
Whether you are repairing your credit or just maintaining good credit, you must inspect your monthly credit card statements carefully. Obviously you want to catch and dispute any charges that seem wrong to you. Your dispute will go better the sooner you start it, so finding suspicious charges as soon as possible is very important.
An important tip to consider when working to repair your credit is the benefit it will have with your insurance. This is important because you could potentially save a lot more money on your auto, life, and home insurance. Normally, your insurance rates are based at least partially off of your credit score.
While you may be scared you will fall back into the credit card trap, avoiding the use of credit cards entirely does little to boost your credit score. Use each card for at least one purchase every month to keep the account active and reporting on your credit report. Carrying even a small balance and paying it off the next month may cost you a bit of interest, but is well worth showing your potential creditors that you make timely payments.
Bills should never be left unpaid long enough to generate late fees when one's credit needs repair. Customers that incur late fees regularly are the ones that companies are most likely to make bad credit reports about. It is better to contact companies about bill payment problems than to ignore them. They will only get worse with time.
Consolidate many of your highest interest rate credit cards into one large balance with a lower interest rate. One possibility for doing this is to check a peer to peer lending site. These sites offer interest rates that bypass typical charges that you would incur with traditional banking, and allow other people just like you to fund your loan at a lower rate than a bank typically would.
Save the accounts that you are in good standing with regardless of your credit issues. If you have good standing accounts, you want to ensure that they remain that way as they are preventing your credit from lessening any further. You want to work on those accounts that are in default, but remember those that aren't for maintaining your credit.
Make sure to make your payments on time when you subscribe to a phone service or a similar utility. Most phone companies ask you to pay a security deposit when you sign a contract with them. By making your payments on time, you can improve your credit score and get the deposit that you paid back.
Methods like these will help you repair your credit and learn to resist the temptations of easy money. Credit repair is not easy or fun, but it can be a learning experience. When you have conquered your personal credit crisis you can hold your head high and be confident of avoiding such pitfalls in the days ahead.

— Various Tools —
85. Wooden Spoon Test : For this test, ask a pregnant woman to throw a wooden spoon on the floor. If it lands hollow side down then she is having a boy; when it lands arch side down then it is a girl.
86. Penny Test : For this test you will need to lick your thumb and wipe it on a penny coin. Once the penny is wet you should hold it against a wall with the split side looking at the wall. Press the penny on to the wall for 30 seconds and then let go; if the penny sticks to the wall you are carrying a girl, of it falls down then you will have a boy.
87. Chicken under the Bed : Put two chickens, a hen and a rooster, under the bed of the pregnant woman (and her husband). The sex of the baby will be the same as whichever chicken comes out first.
88. Pin or Needle : This is a Persian folklore. A pregnant woman who happens to find a pin in the street will have a male child, but finding a needle presages a female child. (Ṣ. Hedāyat, Neyrangestān, 1963)
89. Spider Web : In Hungary, a pregnant woman might make a hole with her finger in a spider web; if the spider repairs the damage of the web, expect a male child. (Rudolf Temesváry, Volkbräuche und Aberglauben in der Geburtshilfe und der Pflege des Neugebornen in Ungarn, 1900)
90. Garlic Test : If a mom-to-be eats a clove of garlic raw and she can still sense the smell seeping out from her pores even days after, it is going to be a son. Otherwise, it is a girl.
91. Louse test : This is a Moroccan folklore. Dropping a louse on a pregnant woman's exposed abdomen. If the insect lands on its legs, the unborn baby is believed to be a male; if on its back, a female. ( Jean Avalon, Coutumes et pratiques Marocaines dans la grossesse et l'accouchement, 1927)
92. Toilet Test : In Japan, when the dad-to-be calls the mom-to-be while she is on the toilet, if she turns suddenly to the right, the baby is a son. To the left, a daughter.
This test is similar to the Chinese "Call from behind" test
93. Spoon and Fork Test : In order to carry out this method for predicting the sex of the unborn child you require a fork, a spoon, and two chairs. The fork should be placed on one chair and the spoon on the other, the objects being covered with a serviette. The mother-to-be is not allowed to see the process, and once both objects are covered she is asked to choose a chair to sit on; when she sits on the spoon she will give birth to a girl, and when she chooses fork it will be a boy.
In Italy and some other countries, people use knife instead of fork and scissors instead of spoon for this test.
94. Pupil Dilation : This is a German folktale. Look at the mirror for at least one minute, and if the pupils dilate, it is a boy. Otherwise, it is a girl.
95. Turkey Wishbone : Let the mother-to-be and father-to-be hold each side of a turkey wishbone, and then break it. If the father-to-be gets the bigger end, the baby is a boy. If the mother-to-be gets the bigger end, the baby is a girl.
96. Sprinkle Salt : A test from Romania. Let the father-to-be sprinkle some salt in the mother-to-be's hair silently, and watch where she scratches first. If she itches her lips, she is having a girl, her nose, a boy.
97. Cat Test : Ask the pregnant woman to stay in a room with another lady, and have them sit on chairs in opposite sides of the room. Then let a cat enter the room. If the cat takes a glance at the pregnant woman first (preferably jumping in her lap) , she is going to have a boy. If the cat ignores the pregnant woman and goes for the other lady, a baby girl is predicted.
98. Bread Test : Serve a pregnant lady a loaf of bread, if she prefers the heel, it is going to be a son, if she refuse to eat the heel, it is a daughter. This test is said to originate from Italy.
99. Owl or Raven : In Albania, the cry of an owl presages the birth of a daughter, while the croaking of a raven is a sign of a son.
100. Baby Dancing : In Vienna, the City of Music, if the fetus dances with music, it is a girl. If the fetus remains quiet, it is a boy.
101. Facial Tissue : Lay a facial tissue flat on a table. Then ask the mom-to-be to grab the tissue right in front of a few people. If she grabs the edge of the tissue, she is having a girl. If she grabs the corner of the tissue, she is having a baby boy.

Convenor: Loraine Gelsthorpe, UK
The idea for this Working Group emerged at the ESC conference in Ljubljana, Slovenia, in September 2009. A number of those present indicated that they would welcome the opportunity to share ideas on gender, crime and criminal justice. Informal discussions then led to a request to formalise the Working Group. Approval was sought from the ESC Executive and granted in 2010. We launched the Working Group at the 2010 conference.
Gender issues are central to the very conception of crime insofar as there has tended to be gender blindness or confusion about gender in both the construction of the law and in criminological theorizing. Gender issues are also important in considerations of both pathways into and out of crime, and they are pertinent to patterns of resilience and desistance. There are also important gender-related issues to consider in relation to social regulation and conceptions of criminal and social justice, including both procedural and substantive dimensions of this. Gender is thus an important consideration in the creation, implementation and operation of the law.
The aims of the Working Group are to encourage networking, foster discussion, stimulate empirical research, enable theoretical development, and encourage critical and comparative work on all matters relating to gender, crime, and criminal justice. In particular, the Working Group relishes the prospect of inter-disciplinary working on topics relating to gender.
- To share information and ideas about gender, crime and criminal justice across different European jurisdictions
- To offer support to those in the ESC interested in gender dimensions of crime and criminal justice
- To identify some comparative research questions - and, in due course, possibly to develop specific funded research collaborations between the members of the Working Group
- To organize thematic discussions based around gender at ESC conferences and meetings

Skip to comments.Apologies count: Obama for accidental book burning = 3; Islamic for 18,500 attacks = 0
Posted on 02/29/2012 10:36:17 AM PST by PRePublic
Apologies count: Obama's apologies for accidental burning of a book = 3; Islamic apologies for 18,500 attacks = 0
The repeated geeky "apologies" by cowardice Obama's administration for the inadvertent "koran burning," has been heavily criticized. Even Liberals on CNN had to debate it, at least. Not to mention, it hasn't helped. We fail, time and time again to see that weakness emboldens them, while Obama was kissing bloody Taliban, Islamists butcher dozens. I am sure in their mindset we will all revere Islam much "better" now, right? I just hope, someone in the WH Will leave from this Storm when it ends, knowing that this policy does more harm than good. to put it mildly. Looking back in retrospect, it actually made it worse. What if all of the governmental branches would ignore it, snub the protesters, would then, less than 39 people die in the course of a few days?
Again, to put "apologies" in perspective, we are yet to hear an apology from any Islamic "spokespersons" for all the 18,500 attacks (on non-Muslims, on Muslims, often using Muslims as pawns) in the name of Islam. Plus of course, the 9/11 massacre of nearly 3,000 people to the Islamic cry of "Allah u Akbar by Mohamed Atta & co." As to the argument of many Islamic activists, why should they apologize for other Muslims' crimes, I am quite puzzled that we hear the "voice" of Islam only when it suits them politically, then, all of a sudden they all 'get' a voice loud and clear with all that bombastic "islamophobia" shouts, which in fact is all about covering-up real, raw intolerance, the Islamic-bigotry of course, which creates all the violence in the name of Islam... and which is in fact most of all violence in the world, since the mid-1990s'.
Especially noted, is that muted, but otherwise loud terror linked Islamic lobby CAIR acting like a mad dog, each time when Islamization is getting a step backwards.
When does O say, "You cannot intimidate us through violence and hyped indignation over unintentional or inadvertent insults. The era of intimidation through deadly tantrums is over."
That, my Friend, was what the bastards that voted for this sob that now occupies the White House wanted.
"0" should be burned himself.. his day is coming (Judgement Day).. I am in no position to judge anyone, but I think you all know what I mean.. :/
He has destroyed our country (not single handedly, of course).. and he will reap what he (and hopefully the rest of the commi backers/pushers) has sown.
God save us..
He apologized because he's muslim and doesn't want his brothers to think he has given up on the plans they have for America.
Obama is weakening this country to the point that muslims will not have to use terrorist tactics. All they have to do is wait for brother barack to bring us to the level of a thirdworld country and he can control the great satan. Thanks to all the idiots with white guilt for voting in their first black president we are now not only at war with muslims, we are at war with treasonous liberals who want to destroy what has taken hundreds of years to build.
Did you notice the Islamic lobby who controls the UN what they announced today the need for "more" apologies?

As I sit here in my hotel room, in Chicago, at 6AM (don't ask… I'm 700 miles away from the toddler but somehow I "hear" him – I think he has me trained) and reflect on the weekend so far, I decided to do a little search for a weekend quote.
I wanted to find one about experiences. Something that would be relevant to me being out and about in a new city, participating in all of these interesting events and learning new things. Well, one quote literally jumped off the screen at me…
When I experience and accept myself exactly as I am, then I change.
It's not precisely the realm of quote I was looking for but MAN, is it a powerful concept. One that I can totally agree and relate to.
In my 3 Steps to a Healthier YOU series I call this the chicken/egg problem of weight loss. I didn't lose the weight and then accept myself and experience new things. I first accepted ME, body and all. The chubby girl in High School, the weight I regained from pregnancy, the stretch marks, all the failed diet attempts in the past. All of it. I accepted that THAT was who I was… IS. THEN I was able to "see the light", so to say. Then I was able to change.
I think when we hold on to our negative body images we start to feel sorry for ourselves. We are then afraid to experience new things and in essence, to change.
"I can't do that, I'm too fat."
"I'm too chubby to wear that"
"I'm not trying that, I don't want everyone to see my fat ass try to climb a wall/walk outside/go to gym/whatever [insert what you are not doing because you don't like your body]!"
These were all things I used to say. My negative body image became crippling. In essence causing me to gain more and more weight through my teens and 20's. That's why my happiness wasn't enough. My unhappiness was causing the weight problem so it couldn't be the solution.
The solution HAS to be self acceptance. I agree with Cherie McCoy, I don't think we can change until we do.

Des Allemands man held on $75,000 bond
September 20, 2006 at 12:47 pm | Mobile Reader | Print
John Tyler, 28, Des Allemands was the sixth person arrested and charged with child pornography this year. As with all arrests, those charged are innocent until proved guilty.
The answer, says Sheriff Greg Champagne is, We are always working with state and federal agents to make sure that we have the best resources available to protect all of our citizens, child and adult.
The sheriff went on to say that when it comes to protecting parish children from sexual predators, his department and other law enforcement agencies working in the community stand on their record.
Officers have, in fact, arrested six men on charges related to child pornography in the first nine months of 2006 alone.
The latest bust came on Sept. 8 when sheriffs deputies arrested and charged a Des Allemands man with nine counts of child pornography.
It is reported that John R. Tyler, 28, of 17305 U.S. Hwy 90 in Des Allemands was taken into custody after officers searched and found nine digital pornography files stored on a rented computer.
Digital pornography files can be still photographs or video images of sexual acts.
Tyler, who is being held on a $75,000 bond, ended his lease with a local rent-to-own company. A manager for the company later notified the sheriffs department and told them he had found child pornography on the machine.
The child pornography related arrests in the area spark the question of whether or not there is any relation between the people who view this x-rated material and those who sexually abuse children.
As one concerned parent put it, Six arrests seem like a lot in such a small and quiet parish. Are people who download these files a danger to children? Do they act out on their fantasies or do they keep to themselves?
The answer to that question is controversial, but the Herald Guide addresses it head on from a conservative perspective in a companion piece to this report headlined, Link between obscenity & sexual abuse of children is real, say experts.
For the record, and in the interest of fairness, Tyler is not being held on any charges relating to child abuse or pedophilia.
However, even forgetting the child-pornography arrests that have shaken the community, it is reported that no fewer than 55 registered sex offenders, eight having been convicted of molestation of a juvenile, are living in St. Charles Parish towns.
According to the sheriffs web site, Luling has the most with a total of 12 registered offenders. Good Hope comes in last with zero.
Other cities rank as follows: Boutte-4, Paradis-3, Des Allemands-9, Hahnville-6, Montz-1, Ama-1, Norco-2, New Sarpy-2, Destrehan-4, St. Rose-10 and Killona-1.
Wikipedia, an online encyclopedia, describes a sex offender as being a person who has been criminally charged and convicted of, or has pled guilty to, a sex crime, and these crimes can range from the molestation of a juvenile to simple rape.
All of the parishs child pornography arrests, according to sheriffs reports, consisted of still or video images that were downloaded from the Internet. None of the suspects have been accused of or charged with sexual assault, official reports confirm.
According to Family Safe Media, a conservative watchdog group in Oklahoma, there are about 42 million search engine requests made for child pornography each year with 100,000 web sites offering illegal child pornography to anyone who with a home computer and a connection.
Both federal and state laws are in place and are designed to protect children from the dangers of pedophiles and internet predators, but with the porn industry raking in an estimated $57 billion dollars worldwide annually, it seems as though, says one Boutte resident, The fight against child pornography is not going to end anytime soon, not at home, not abroad.

Weekday Series Rankings: Wacha-Cingrani Part II headlines
Let's take a look at all the series we're set to see this week and rank them. The Cardinals-Reds tilt in St. Louis sits at the top, alongside the Tigers-Dodgers interleaguer.
More MLB: Scoreboard | Standings | Probable Pitchers | Sortable Stats | Odds
Just as we'll do every week, let's look ahead at the series (not "serieses," as series is one of those awesome words that is the same plural as singular) that we'll see this coming week. That is, only the 15 series that we'll see in the weekdays, not including the series from this coming weekend. For those, we'll be back Friday for another installment.
As usual, this is a sandwich scale (fun!), with the best matchups being the "footlong" ones, followed by, in order, six-inch, wraps and sliders.
Cincinnati Reds (2-4) at St. Louis Cardinals (3-3)
Monday: LHP Tony Cingrani (0-0) vs. RHP Michael Wacha (0-0)
Tuesday: RHP Homer Bailey (0-1) vs. RHP Lance Lynn (1-0)
Wednesday: RHP Mike Leake (0-1) vs. RHP Shelby Miller (0-1)
Why watch? Generally speaking, this has been a great rivalry in the recent past and these two clubs just had a three-game series last week in which every game was decided by exactly one run. Specifically speaking, Cingrani and Wacha combined last Wednesday to throw 13 2/3 shutout innings with 16 strikeouts. The two young studs will square off again Monday.
What to watch for: Three of the Reds' four losses have come by one run while the fourth came on a walk-off grand slam. Two of the Cardinals' three losses have come by one run. Who is gonna get the breaks and/or big hits?
Detroit Tigers (4-1) at Los Angeles Dodgers (5-3)
Monday: OFF
Tuesday: RHP Max Scherzer (0-0) vs. RHP Dan Haren (1-0)
Wednesday: RHP Anibal Sanchez (0-0) vs. LHP Hyun-Jin Ryu (1-1)
Thursday: OFF
Why watch? There are lots of different matchups early in the season where we get to say something like, "could this be a World Series preview?" and this is one of them. It's entirely possible we'll see these two clubs squaring off in the Fall Classic and while we don't get Clayton Kershaw or Justin Verlander, we do get two solid pitching matchups.
What to watch for: Is Matt Kemp back to form? How will Sanchez bounce back after a sub-par first outing? Can the Tigers bullpen get it together? Can Ryu bounce back after an awful outing?
Tampa Bay Rays (4-3) at Kansas City Royals (2-3)
Monday: LHP Matt Moore (0-1) vs. LHP Jason Vargas (0-0)
Tuesday: RHP Chris Archer (1-0) vs. RHP Yordano Ventura (0-0)
Wednesday: RHP Jake Odorizzi (1-0) vs. RHP Jeremy Guthrie (1-0)
Why watch? It's the James Shields/Wil Myers Bowl! Yeah, that's probably better reserved for 2013. Still, this is two teams we expect to be contenders in 2014. The Archer-Ventura pitching matchup in particular is absolutely one to watch -- albeit probably an underrated matchup, nationally.
What to watch for: In three losses, the Royals have had three bullpen meltdowns. That needs to be fixed or they won't be a contender. Also, the Rays lead the AL in on-base percentage. Will this trend continue?
Texas Rangers (3-3) at Boston Red Sox (2-4)
Monday: RHP Tanner Scheppers (0-0) vs. RHP John Lackey (1-0)
Tuesday: LHP Martin Perez (0-0) vs. LHP Felix Doubront (1-0)
Wednesday: LHP Robbie Ross (0-0) vs. RHP Jake Peavy (0-0)
Why watch? Two powerhouse franchises is pretty much the only reason we need.
What to watch for: The Red Sox have started the season 0-3 at home after going 53-28 in Fenway Park last season. Also, how will Scheppers react in his second career start after getting shelled in his first?
Miami Marlins (5-2) at Washington Nationals (4-2)
Monday: OFF
Tuesday: RHP Henderson Alvarez (0-1) vs. LHP Gio Gonzalez (1-0)
Wednesday: RHP Jacob Turner (0-0) vs. RHP Tanner Roark (1-0)
Thursday: RHP Tom Koehler (1-0) vs. RHP Jordan Zimmermann (0-0)
Why watch? The surprising Marlins are off to a 5-2 start while the Nationals are close to the top of the NL East as well. It's an early tilt for first place.
What to watch for: The Marlins' offense is among the league leaders in several offensive categories. Casey McGehee has 10 RBI in seven games. Marcell Ozuna is hitting .360. Adeiny Hechavarria is hitting .393. Giancarlo Stanton is out of his mind. Can this continue against the Nationals' stout pitching staff?
Baltimore Orioles (2-4) at New York Yankees (3-3)
Monday: RHP Ubaldo Jimenez (0-1) vs. RHP Hiroki Kuroda (0-1)
Tuesday: LHP Wei-Yin Chen (0-1) vs. RHP Ivan Nova (1-0)
Wednesday: RHP Miguel Gonzalez (0-1) vs. RHP Masahiro Tanaka (1-0)
Why watch? These are two teams with high upside but also a pretty decent-sized downside. They've been inconsistent thus far in 2014, so we need to know what to make of them.
What to watch for: While Jimenez wasn't terrible in his 2014 debut, he wasn't good at all. Kuroda got no run support but still lost to the Astros. So that'll be an interesting duel. Tanaka's home debut will also be very intriguing. On a broader scale, the Orioles are last in the AL in on-base percentage. If you wanna score some more runs, put some more guys on the bases.
Los Angeles Angels (2-4) at Seattle Mariners (4-2)
Monday: OFF
Tuesday: LHP Hector Santiago (0-1) vs. LHP James Paxton (1-1)
Wednesday: RHP Garrett Richards (1-0) vs. LHP Roenis Elias (0-0)
Thursday: OFF
Why watch? Star power! King Felix (wait, he isn't pitching), Robinson Cano, Albert Pujols, Josh Hamilton and, um ... oh yeah, Mike Trout.
What to watch for: The Mariners started the season 4-1 and the only loss came in extra innings. They were firing on all cylinders and had the look of an early sleeper. They also crushed the Angels in three games by a count of 26-8. Can the Angels avenge the losses in this short series? Tuesday night's game also marks the home opener for Seattle and it'll be interesting see what kind of home fanfare they have. Expect Safeco Field to be rocking.
Pittsburgh Pirates (4-2) at Chicago Cubs (2-4)
Monday: OFF
Tuesday: RHP Charlie Morton (0-0) vs. RHP Edwin Jackson (0-0)
Wednesday: LHP Wandy Rodriguez (0-1) vs. RHP Jason Hammel (1-0)
Thursday: RHP Gerrit Cole (1-0) vs. LHP Travis Wood (0-1)
Why watch? The two clubs just played a three-game series in which two went to extra innings and all three were decided by one run. There weren't many runs scored, but there definitely was plenty of drama.
What to watch for: The Cubs' offense had combined for eight total runs in five games before Sunday's eight-run explosion while the Pirates sport a 2.18 ERA right now and look to have a stellar pitching staff. Runs will be at a premium.
New York Mets (2-4) at Atlanta Braves (4-2)
Monday: OFF
Tuesday: RHP Bartolo Colon (0-1) vs. RHP Aaron Harang (1-0)
Wednesday: RHP Zack Wheeler (0-1) vs. RHP Ervin Santana (0-0)
Thursday: RHP Jenrry Mejia (1-0) vs. RHP David Hale (1-0)
Why Watch? It's a classic, throwback, NL East throwdown.
What to watch for: The Mets are hitting .178/.251/.346 as a team right now while the Braves sport a 1.56 ERA and are adding Ervin Santana to their rotation. Watching how the Mets fare -- because while they might not be great, they aren't this bad, offensively -- against this staff should be fun.
Arizona Diamondbacks (2-7) at San Francisco Giants (5-2)
Monday: OFF
Tuesday: RHP Trevor Cahill (0-2) vs. RHP Tim Hudson (1-0)
Wednesday: RHP Bronson Arroyo (0-0) vs. RHP Tim Lincecum (0-0)
Thursday: RHP Randall Delgado (0-1) vs. RHP Ryan Vogelsong (1-0)
Why watch? The Giants are playing as well as anyone right now and the D-Backs have more losses than some teams have games played. There's intrigue in that, right?
What to watch for: Only two players in the NL have more than two home runs right now: Mark Trumbo (5) and Brandon Belt (4). The Giants as a team lead the NL in homers and are second in runs and slugging. Will the power continue?
Oakland Athletics (3-3) at Minnesota Twins (3-3)
Monday: LHP Scott Kazmir (1-0) vs. RHP Kevin Correia (0-0)
Tuesday: OFF
Wednesday: RHP Jesse Chavez (0-0) vs. RHP Phil Hughes (0-0)
Thursday: RHP Dan Straily (0-1) vs. RHP Mike Pelfrey (0-1)
Why watch? The AL West favorite A's could pretty easily be 5-1, but they aren't. The Twins themselves blew a game and could be a surprising 4-2. So there looks to be a chance to late-inning fireworks.
What to watch for: Speaking of which, the A's use of Jim Johnson in a close game bears watching. He was horrible in his first two outings -- taking the loss in each -- but settled down at least mildly in the last two outings. Still, he's allowed at least one hit in all four outings and at least one walk in three of the four. On the Twins' end, Chris Colabello has 11 RBI in six games.
Milwaukee Brewers (4-2) at Philadelphia Phillies (3-3)
Monday: Postponed due to weather
Tuesday: RHP Kyle Lohse (0-1) vs. RHP Kyle Kendrick (0-0)
Wednesday: RHP Matt Garza (0-1) vs. RHP Roberto Hernandez (1-0)
Thursday: RHP Marco Estrada (0-0) vs. LHP Cliff Lee (2-0)
Why watch? The Brewers just swept the defending champions in Fenway Park and the Phillies are two bullpen meltdowns from being 5-1, so there's good upside here in both clubs.
What to watch for: Ryan Braun's thumb injury continues to hamper him and the Brewers can't really live up to their sleeper potential without him anchoring the lineup. It'll be interesting to see how he swings the bat. He did go 2-for-4 Sunday. On the Phillies' end, can Chase Utley (.458/.536/.833) stay hot?
San Diego Padres (2-4) at Cleveland Indians (3-3)
Monday: LHP Robbie Erlin (0-0) vs. RHP Corey Kluber (0-0)
Tuesday: RHP Tyson Ross (0-1) vs. RHP Zach McAllister (0-0)
Wednesday: LHP Eric Stults (0-1) vs. RHP Danny Salazar (0-0)
Why watch? The Indians were a playoff team last season while the Padres were a popular sleeper pick in the NL West this preseason.
What to watch for: McAllister and Kluber both need to have better starts for the Indians after bad debuts. The same can be said for Ross and Stults on the other end. The Padres' offense, meanwhile, has been among the worst in baseball. Can they reverse it?
Houston Astros (3-3) at Toronto Blue Jays (3-4)
Monday: OFF
Tuesday: LHP Brett Oberholtzer (0-1) vs. LHP Mark Buehrle (1-0)
Wednesday: RHP Lucas Harrell (0-1) vs. RHP Brandon Morrow (0-1)
Thursday: LHP Dallas Keuchel (0-1) vs. RHP Dustin McGowan (0-1)
Why watch? I'm feeling a huge offensive series for the Blue Jays. The Astros lead the AL in home runs, too, so there could be a power display here.
What to watch for: Mark Buehrle is coming off a dominant opening-week start in Tampa Bay, in which he struck out 11 in 8 2/3 shutout innings. What does he do for an encore? Also, Dexter Fowler's ridiculously hot start (.500/.500/.1.083) was interrupted by a nasty stomach virus. Can he get it going again?
Chicago White Sox (3-3) at Colorado Rockies (3-4)
Monday: RHP Felipe Paulino (0-0) vs. RHP Jordan Lyles (1-0)
Tuesday: LHP Franklin Morales (0-0) vs. LHP Jose Quintana (0-0)
Wednesday: RHP Erik Johnson (0-1) vs. RHP Juan Nicasio (1-0)
Why watch? If you like offense, you'll find plenty here.
What to watch for: The White Sox lead the AL in hits while ranking ninth in ERA and don't have Chris Sale going in this three-gamer. The Rockies lead the NL in average, on-base percentage and slugging percentage while ranking 14th in ERA. Coors Field is still a hitter's haven. So a fun game would be to guess how many combined runs are scored in this three-game series. I'll go with 39.

Alright, first off if this is inappropriately placed, feel free to murder me -you may end up doing me a favor...
Moving on, here's my dilema: I have recently purchased a 98 Forester S with leaking head gaskets. The normal course of action would simply be to fix the head gaskets, but it would be expensive. Prohibitively so for someone such as myself (single parent, no garage, no more money).
However, I do have a 90 Legacy LS with an extremely well-maintained EJ22.
I've searched the forums to the best of my (limited) ability, but what I can't seem to find out is whether it's feasible to swap the EJ22 into the Forester.
From what I can gather, the Forester running the EJ22 will be at worst, underpowered. However, considering the nigh invulnerability of the EJ22, I could probably live with it -I simply need a dependable, AWD, car.
I suppose if I could I find someone willing to do the HG on the cheap, I would just do that and not worry about convoluted engine removals/conversions, but as I am extremely limited by my financial situation, I'm looking at the least expensive alternatives. Like I said, I can live with driving an underpowered car as long as it's rock solid dependable (which my Legacy has always been -the 4EAT tranny in it, however, weeeell, not so much). I'm disappointed in the DOHC EJ25, but repairing the HG is a $1500.00 job, and if I simply can't afford something like that, all the while entertaining the possibility of having it reoccur later on, or have something else (bearings, etc) go wrong as well.
I would rest much easier knowing I had the reliable EJ22 to depend on instead.
Again, I'm simply looking at options at this point; maybe I'm reaching. Who knows. However, I AM becoming desperate at this point -the HG in the Forester are bound to go pretty soon -it's inevitable. So unless, I can find someone to help me do the HG repair locally, and not charge me a fortune, I'm going to continue the head scratching until I can come up with a solid plan.
ANY and ALL advice is appreciated and graciously welcomed.
Bob in NE Ohio
p.s. just an FYI -the Legacy has a bad tranny and it's got the rusting disease (the motor, however, is immaculate)

That 2.2 won't have EGR.
Some here have done that conversion because they have no inspection where they care about the CEL.
I coildn't do it here where I live in PA.
Your preferred engine is a 95 2.2 automatic (has EGR) or any 2.2 96-99 but yoi'l need it's Y-pipe.

'Our Kind of Traitor': A gentleman and a spy
OUR KIND OF TRAITOR, by John le Carré. Viking, 305 pp., $27.95
It's fitting that one scene in John le Carré's latest novel, "Our Kind of Traitor," takes place at Roger Federer's historic win at the 2009 French Open. Fedheads and le Carré completists - I'm a member of both clubs - have to resign themselves to the reality that their heroes' best days are behind them. Le Carré can still hit with devastating precision and come up with the awe-inspiring passing shot, but putting it all together in a novel that seizes its historical moment, the way his Cold War books did, seems beyond his post-perestroika powers.
That said, le Carré is still the literary master of the spy genre. Alan Furst digs deeper into history, and Olen Steinhauer has a more contemporary sensibility, but no one can match le Carré for the graceful sweep of his prose. How better to set up the story of a young Oxford academic wishing for a more purposeful life than this: "Seated head in hands at eight o'clock in the morning in his modest Oxford rooms, after a seven-mile run that had done nothing to ease his sense of calamity, he had searched his soul to know just what the first third of his natural life had achieved, apart from providing him with an excuse for not engaging in the world beyond the city's dreaming spires."
Perry "Peregrine" Makepiece is one of le Carré's innocents. As Dima, the Russian money-launderer who befriends him, says, "You're a goddam fair-play English . . . gentleman like in books." Dima is almost at the other end of the spectrum, a criminal who knows where all the bodies are buried in the intertwined world of Russian politicians and mobsters. He even knows of connections between the Russians and international men of standing, and he wants to make a deal to get his family to the mythic England he adores.
Makepiece is only too happy to shake off the Oxford dust and become Dima's unlikely go-between to George Smiley's successors in "the service" - namely Hector and Luke, two men determined to do the right thing, if only they can figure out how many wrong things they have to do before getting there. Makepiece has a beautiful girlfriend, Gail, who also becomes entangled in the Free Dima campaign, partly because of her maternal interest in the Russian's daughter as well as a pair of orphans in his care.
So far so good. The prose is crisp, the action moves along, and one gets the sense that le Carré is sizing up the new Russia - and Western collusion with it - as deftly as he sized up the Soviet Union and the Anglo-American forces lined up against it.
But here's the difference. In the world he limned so accurately between "The Spy Who Came in From the Cold" (1963) and "The Russia House" (1989) he was basically saying, You might believe that the world is made up of good guys (England/America/Israel) and bad guys (the Soviets/the Palestinians), but I'm going to prove that it's a morally ambiguous place made up, as he wrote in "Smiley's People," of "half-angels fighting half-devils."
In the nine novels since, his thesis is more like: The world is a basically corrupt global village that sucks the soul out of anyone who tries to change things for the better. And that would be fine - if le Carré proved that it were so, rather than just saying it.
Dima is an interesting-enough character, but the Russians he works for are shadowy stick figures. The four main English characters - Perry and Gail, Hector and Luke - also seem stuck in a vacuum. It's obvious that American and English politicians and businessmen walk on eggshells when dealing with the egregious human rights violations in Russia, and le Carré assumes the worst kinds of collusion behind it. But those assumptions need to be woven into the fabric of the story more than they are here.
Le Carré, of course, does not live in this world the way David Cornwell lived in the Foreign Service before he became a novelist. Perhaps we should just be content to bask in his still-sharp prose: "His Midlands accent, according to the ground-floor gossips, had become more noticeable under New Labour, but was receding with the prospect of electoral defeat." Le Carré's characters still call to us. They just don't grab us by the lapels the way they used to.

GAA heart-throb Bernard Brogan on the key to his long term relationship
Dublin footballer Bernard Brogan has revealed his relationship secret which has seen him through two years with his girlfriend Kiera Doyle.
The GAA star revealed that opposites certainly do not attract and believes the couple's interest in sport has brought them closer.
"She's a sport-mad girl. She was a great basketball player and swimmer and loves the GAA and rugby, so she loves the journey," Bernard told The Irish Sun.
"We go to some great matches and have great craic."
The footballer revealed that making time for one another, despite their busy schedules is the key to their relationship success.
"We always make time [for each other]. She's nearly working more than me. We're two busy professionals, but we always make time at the end of the evening or on the weekends," he said.
Bernard revealed that the pair don't go out "messing" often as his rigorous training schedule puts a dampener on the boozy nights out.
"Obviously when I'm training there is not much partying or drinking so it's just normal stuff – cinema and watching films. It's just nice, no major messing," he said.
The couple, who have been together for two years, could be walking down the aisle in the not-so distant future as Bernard admitted he was keen to tie the knot "at some stage".
"[Kiera]'s always there bringing me right back down to earth," he said.

I've been a fan of Fox's Scream Queens since the first season, and when I first learned that the second season would have a complete change of scenery — going from a college campus to a hospital — I was unsure of whether I'd still enjoy the show. However, once Season 2 started, I immediately saw that the show kept its perfect combination of campiness and horror (and they still have that phat '80s soundtrack!).
This go around, Dean Munsch started the Caregivers United in Restorative Etiology Institute Hospital, or CURE for short — formerly known as Our Lady of Perpetual Suffering Hospital — to specifically treat diseases that are normally considered incurable. In the last few episodes, audiences have witnessed patients with extremely rare diseases be cured, only then to be brutally murdered by The Green Meanie.
The hospital setting is making for technically effective horror. At the same time, Scream Queens (and the horror genre in general as of late) has come under fire for stigmatizing people with diseases and disabilities. That's because the diseases featured in the show are real — you can imagine how offended you might be if your medical condition were used for a horror series.
Whatever your opinion on this debate, here's what you should know about the real-life conditions being depicted in Scream Queens Season 2.
On The Series: Katherine is a woman with extreme hypertrichosis, or excessive hair growth, and she goes to CURE hoping for a remedy. Zayday initially decides to drill a hole into Katherine's brain to control Katherine's hair follicles, but Dr. Brock Holt (played by the still-so-fine John Stamos) and Chanel (of all people) come up with a less invasive cure by reducing the amount of vitamin K that she consumes, reducing the amount of testosterone in her system. This is so effective that Katherine ends up losing all her hair.
IRL: Hypertrichosis, colloquially called "werewolf syndrome," is defined as hair growth that is significantly above the normal age, race and sex of an individual. The disease is extremely rare; there have only been 50 documented cases in the modern era.
In earlier times, some people with hypertrichosis were exploited as sideshow artists in carnivals. The disease can be treated with hair removal — whether it's shaving, electrolysis or laser hair removal — but the hair will grow back, so the treatments have to be repeated. (The vitamin K treatment Katherine received doesn't actually work, or at least, there's been no official record of the special diet curing anyone.) Buzzfeed has a truly touching story about a family India that has hypertrichosis, and their road to treatment.
Neurofibromatosis Type 1
On The Series: Tyler is a young man who has neurofibromatosis type 1, and he goes to CURE for treatment. Dr. Holt informs him that his tumors can be treated with a "CO-2 laser," but the cost is extremely high. Chanel gets her ex-boyfriend Chad Radwell to pay for the procedure, but Tyler never receives his cure because the Green Meanie uses the laser to burn him to death.
IRL: Neurofibromatosis comes in two types. Type 1 consists of tumors on the skin, known as neurofibroma. Tumors can even form on the eye, causing vision problems. Type 2 involves tumors forming in the brain, spinal cord and/or nerve endings. Some individuals with neurofibromatosis don't have tumors at all, just spots on their skin. It affects 1 out of every 3,000 people.
The Children's Tumor Foundation, which raises funds for neurofibromatosis research, was extremely critical of the episode:
These sixty minutes of scripted programming have done a terrible disservice to the millions of people around the world living with neurofibromatosis – also known as NF – a genetic disorder that causes tumors to grow throughout the body. NF is a lifelong condition often diagnosed in childhood, and it can affect bones, vision, hearing, and other body systems. It can also sometimes lead to cancer. ... There is no "CO-2 laser" machine that can "shrink and eventually remove" the tumors, as referred to on the show. In fact, the notion of a quick fix trivializes the very real and very serious need to fund research for treatments and, one day, a cure for the 125,000 people in the United States and nearly 2.5 million people worldwide living with NF.
Jumping Frenchmen Of Maine Syndrome
On The Series: Chad's friend Randal develops the Jumping Frenchmen of Maine syndrome, accidentally shooting their friend in the face with a shotgun during a hunting trip. The least little thing makes him startle, whether it's someone placing a hand on his shoulder or clicking the button on a ballpoint pen. Dr. Holt and Dr. Cassidy Cascade (played by Taylor Lautner) treat the disorder by placing Randal in a room that's devoid of any stimuli to upset his nerves. The treatment works, but Randal is later chopped into bits by the Green Meanie.
IRL: The cause of the Jumping Frenchmen of Maine syndrome is unknown. It was first discovered sometime in the 19th century amongst French Canadian lumberjacks in Maine and Quebec that were living in isolation. It is believed that the cause could possibly be due to certain cultural factors or a neurological disorder. There is no cure, but it is possible for it to be treated by eliminating stress. Studies have also shown that the symptoms usually appear during puberty, but can decrease as the patient gets older.
On The Series: After spending time in Papua New Guinea, thanks her agent's assistant routing her to the wrong destination for her book tour, Dean Munsch finds herself suffering from terrible headaches, extreme trembling, joint pain and problems with her gait. After she discovers that she unknowingly ingested human remains while in the country, Zayday diagnoses her with kuru, a contagious disease that's contracted when eating an individual who had the disease himself or is exposed to an affected person's open wounds. The Green Meanie tries to attack her, but she whoops his ass.
IRL: The word "kuru" actually means to shiver or tremble in fear. The disease has three stages: loss of bodily control, an inability to walk, and later, being unable to speak. Some of the other symptoms include dementia, incontinence, inability to grasp objects, slurred speech and compulsive crying or laughing. Per Shirley Lindenbaum's preface of Kuru Society: Disease and Danger in the New Guinea Highlands, the kuru epidemic ended in 2009.
Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder (PGAD)
On The Series: Sheila (played by SNL alum Cheri Oteri) began suffering from persistent genital arousal disorder, or PGAD, after performing a complicated yoga pose. Her ailment only has one symptom: constant orgasms.
You may think that sounds pleasant, but on the contrary, PGAD has made Sheila's life extremely difficult, and she goes to CURE for help. Dr. Cascade concludes that Sheila pinched a nerve while doing the yoga pose, and performs a successful surgery to cure her. However, the Green Meanie appears while she's being discharged from the hospital and dismembers her.
IRL: Persistent genital arousal disorder, or persistent sexual arousal disorder, affects women of various ages, from ladies in their teens to women going through menopause. It's unknown what causes the disease. Some believe it may be caused from Tarlov cysts in the reproductive organs; others believe it may be caused by a type of trauma. One sufferer from the UK links her PGAD to a fall she took down the stairs in 2001.
Like Sheila, many women with PGAD go through anxiety, depression and panic attacks, and lose interest in all things sexual. It can sometimes be treated with surgery on damaged nerves, anesthetizing agents, or therapy and support groups.
On The Series: The stress of finding Chad dead on their wedding day causes Chanel to break out in a series of rashes. Dr. Holt prescribes some colloidal silver for Chanel to clear her skin. The very next morning, Chanel's skin is free of blemishes…but it's also blue.
Dr. Holt swears that someone has tampered with the dosage (I personally believe that he did it on purpose as payback for Chanel dumping him for Chad), and promises to cure Chanel...after he finishes his laundry list of things to do. The Green Meanie doesn't go after Chanel, but Hester does, dressed up as none other than Ivanka Trump. In the latest episode, Dr. Holt cures Chanel's argyria with a substance called Deferasirox that basically flushes the metal out of her body.
IRL: Agryria is caused by prolonged use or exposure to silver salts, not just from one dosage — patients often cut and polish silver for a living, or use eye drops, nose drops or prescription drugs that contain colloidal silver. Unlike Chanel, whose skin was the color of Smurfette's, argyria patients' skin is a metallic, bluish-silver color. The reaction to the silver salts is, unlike on the show, normally irreversible.
What do you think about Scream Queens portraying these rare conditions? Does the show need to be more sensitive? Let me know in the comments section below!

If you liked the first trailer for Hot Tub Time Machine, then you're going to love the red band trailer. Four guys go on a skiing trip, only to discover that their hot tub takes them back in time to the 1980s. This trailer shows us a little more of what the movie has in store for us -- and that includes lots of hot ladies wearing very little clothing. This could be the perfect movie.

MEREDITH NYDENwrote a review of Hurley Solid Cloud Tank Top - Women's on April 17, 2014
Bought this tank and can't wait to wear it this summer. It's the perfect weekend/roadtrip item! Love the cloud wash and it's looser drapy fit! I'm 5'6" 130lbs and wear a Small in this since it's a bit loose!
