Daily Joust: The Weekend Ahead
June 29th, 2012 | by Ray Flowers |It's Friday, and that means a couple of things. One, it's about time to cut loose and have some fun. Two, I'll be giving some plays for Friday and Saturday that would seem to be in prime position to succeed.
John Buck vs. Cliff Lee: Buck has been awful this year but in his last six games he has three homers and seven RBI. He's also got a matchup that he has had success in given that he has hit .317 with three homers an a 1.001 OPS over 41 at-bats against the one time ace lefty.
Ryan Roberts vs. Randy Wolf: Roberts isn't exactly tearing it up, but with Josh Bell demoted he has a shot to reclaim a daily role with the club. He hit a homer in his last game and Friday he faces Wold who he has produced seven hits in 15 at-bats against (.467 with one homer). By the way, don't start Wolf Friday. He's allowed a .329/.391/.574 slash line to the current D'backs roster in 155 at-bats.
B.J. Upton vs. Justin Verlander: You know the term 'playing with fire?' Here we go with that. Upton has been in a terrible slump that has led to one hit in six games, and he faces arguably the best pitcher in baseball. Still, the numbers suggest it's not as bad as it seems as Upton has eight hits, including a homer, in 18 at-bats against Verlander leading to a .444 average and five RBIs (Hideki Matsui has also had some success hitting .333 in 24 at-bats).
Ross Detwiler vs. Braves: He hasn't had much success against the Braves in his career with a 3.80 ERA and 1.61 WHIP over 23.2 innings, but his numbers this season against everyone look impressive (3.09 ERA, 1.21 WHIP). Plus, he's been locked in for the month of June with a 1.10 ERA and 0.98 WHIP over 16.1 innings.
Brian Duensing vs. Royals: This is one of those shot in the dark calls based totally on history and pretty much nothing else. Brian D. has made only one start this year so he isn't likely to go deep into this game, and his last outing was unsuccessful (4 ER in 2 IP). Still, history says he makes for a nice play against the Royals: 6-2, 2.98 ERA over 57.1 innings.
Mike Leake vs. Giants: Leake has killed it in June with a 2.97 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 4.50 K/BB ratio (though he's only gone 1-0, great job Reds). The negative? He faces Matt Cain.
Wilson Betemit vs. Josh Tomlin: Three things make this move make sense. (1) Betemit is 7-for-17 with two homers and four RBI against Tomlin. (2) Betemit has been hot in June hitting .383 with a 1.008 OPS in 60 at-bats. (3) Tomlin has been awful in June with a 6.75 ERA, 1.80 WHIP and 10 Ks in 26.2 innings.
Joe Mauer vs. Luke Hochevar: Just seeing this matchup should interest you, even if you had no idea about their history versus one another. Given that Mauer is hitting .450 with a .577 OBP against Hochevar in 26 plate appearances, it's lock and load time with the star hitting catcher.
Placido Polanco vs. Mark Buehrle: Normally Polanco would be the last guy to pay any attention at all too since all he does is produce singles. Still, you simply cannot overlook his massive career efforts against the Miami lefty. In 41 career at-bats Polanco has, get this, 18 hits leading to a .439 batting average against Buehrle.
Michael Fiers vs. D'backs: He's looked pretty darn good this season for the Brew Crew with 31 Ks and just five walks over 33.1 innings. That will play in any league. He's also working on a 2.70 ERA and 1.11 WHIP, not to mention that he has allowed just one run over his last 15.1 innings.
Mat Latos vs. Giants: He gets the weak link of the Giants staff in Barry Zito, and he's also dominated the club from San Fran in 10 career starts with a 2.35 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 4.00 K/BB ratio.
Rick Porcello vs. Tampa Bay: His season has been an uneven one, what else is new, but he's looked pretty locked in over his last two starts permitting three runs over 13 innings. He's also going to be facing a club that he ha had success against in three career starts. Over 20 innings Rick P. has 17 Ks and has issued only five free passes leading to a 3.15 ERA and 1.05 WHIP.

Listen to the Cancer.Net Podcast: MRI–What to Expect, adapted from this content.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a diagnostic examination that uses magnetic fields to create detailed, computer-generated pictures of internal organs and tissue, including the brain and spinal column. An MRI scan is often used to diagnose and evaluate tumors in the chest and abdomen. For example, this test may better identify a small mass within a woman's breast than a mammogram or ultrasound, particularly for women with very dense breast tissue. And, because it does not use radiation, it is frequently chosen as a diagnostic tool for the female and male reproductive systems.
The medical team
An MRI is performed at the radiology department of a hospital or at an outpatient imaging center. It is performed by a radiologist (a medical doctor who performs and interprets imaging tests to diagnose disease) or a radiology technologist who is specially trained and certified to perform, but not interpret, MRI scans.
Questions to ask your doctor
Before having an MRI, consider asking your doctor the following questions:
- Who will perform the MRI?
- What will happen during the MRI?
- How long will the procedure take?
- Can a friend or family member sit in the MRI room during my examination?
- What are the risks and benefits of having an MRI?
- Is the imaging facility accredited to perform MRIs?
- When will I learn the results?
- Who will explain the results to me?
- What further tests will be necessary if the test results indicate cancer?
Preparing for the procedure
When you schedule your MRI, you will get detailed instructions on how to prepare.
You may need to avoid eating for two or more hours before the examination, but generally you will not need to make any special preparations.
Tell your doctor about all medications you are taking, as well as any drug allergies or other medical conditions you have. Women should tell their doctors if there is any chance that they are pregnant.
In addition, it is important to tell your doctor and the technologist performing your MRI about any metal implants or metal fragments you have in your body. These can cause serious, and even fatal, complications when exposed to the strong magnetic pull generated by the MRI. People with pacemakers, for example, cannot have an MRI.
You will be asked to sign a consent form that states you understand the benefits and risks of the MRI and agree to have the test done. Talk with your doctor about any concerns you have about the MRI.
Also consider asking whether you can bring music with you to the scan; some facilities allow patients to listen to music through headphones during the examination.
During the procedure
When you arrive for your MRI, you will need to remove any jewelry or other metal objects you are wearing. You may need to change into a hospital gown, as well.
Depending on the part of your body to be scanned, you may be given a contrast material (a special dye) called gadolinium through an intravenous (IV) line. A nurse or doctor will insert a small needle into a vein in your arm or hand; saline solution will flow through the line until the contrast material is injected at a specific point during the examination. The dye will travel through your bloodstream and help to create a clearer picture of specific parts of your body.
A technologist will help position you on a moveable exam table outside of the MRI machine. You will lie on your back with your arms at your side and your head on a headrest. A "coil" will be positioned over or around the part of your body that will be studied to create a clear picture of that area.
When you are in the correct position, the table will slide into the MRI machine, which resembles a large donut. The standard MRI machine has a narrow, tunnel-like opening. Some facilities have less confining "short-bore" or "open" MRI machines.
The exam table will slide through the hole in the center of the machine. You will need to lie still during the MRI's two-to-six imaging sequences. Each sequence will last up to 15 minutes. You will know that the machine is taking images because you will hear loud tapping or knocking sounds. The part of your body that is being examined may feel warm during the MRI; this is normal.
An MRI is not painful. However, if you receive an IV, you may feel discomfort when the needle is inserted, and the saline solution in the IV may cause a cool feeling at the injection site. In addition, you will need to lie still for most of the scan, which could become uncomfortable. The loud sounds coming from the machine may also make you uncomfortable; you may be given earplugs to wear during the examination. Meanwhile, if you are claustrophobic, tell the technologist before beginning the examination. The radiologist may be able to give you a sedative to help you relax.
During the examination, the technologist will be in a nearby computer room, separated by a window. The technologist will be able to see you, and you will be able to communicate at all times through an intercom system.
The MRI will last up to 90 minutes. The technologist should be able to give you a time estimate before you begin.
When the MRI is complete, you may be asked to remain on the exam table while a radiologist reviews the images to determine if additional images are needed.
After the procedure
You can expect to resume your normal activities immediately after your MRI, including driving, unless you've been given a sedative.

CSIRO, the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation, is Australia's national science agency and one of the largest and most diverse research agencies in the world.
Large-scale, long-term, multidisciplinary science to address Australia's major national challenges and opportunities.
CSIRO expertise is organised into 11 research areas
CSIRO manages national facilities and collections that are opened to researchers around Australia and overseas.
Launched today, the 2012 Marine Climate Change in Australia Report Card demonstrates that climate change is having significant impacts on Australia's marine ecosystems.
The report card provides information about the current and predicted-future state of Australia's marine climate and its impact on our marine biodiversity. The report card also outlines actions that are underway to help our marine ecosystems adapt to climate change.
"Although there are some concerning findings in the 2012 report card, the information we've compiled is helping to ensure that ocean managers and policy makers are best placed to respond to the challenge of managing the impact that climate change is having on these systems."
Dr Elvira Poloczanska, CSIRO
'Australia has some of the world's most unique marine ecosystems. They are enjoyed recreationally, generate considerable economic wealth through fisheries, aquaculture, and tourism, and provide irreplaceable services including coastal defence, oxygen production, nutrient recycling and climate regulation,' Project leader CSIRO's Dr Elvira Poloczanska said.
'Although there are some concerning findings in the 2012 report card, the information we've compiled is helping to ensure that ocean managers and policy makers are best placed to respond to the challenge of managing the impact that climate change is having on these systems.'
Key findings show
Led by CSIRO, more than 80 Australian marine scientists from 34 universities and research organisations contributed to the 2012 report card. The report card draws on peer-reviewed research results from hundreds of scientists, demonstrating a high level of scientific consensus.
'Our knowledge of observed and likely impacts of climate change has greatly advanced since the first card in 2009,' Dr Poloczanska said.
Aspects of marine climate which have been analysed include changes in sea temperature, sea level, the East Australian Current, the Leeuwin Current, and El Niño-Southern Oscillation.
Marine biodiversity assessed for the report card include impacts on coral reefs; tropical, temperate and pelagic fish; marine mammals; marine reptiles; seabirds; mangroves; tidal wetlands; seagrass; macroalgae; marine microbes; phytoplankton and zooplankton. The two new sections included in the 2012 report card focus on the smallest and largest organisms in the oceans: microbes and whales.
The project has been funded by the Australian Government Department of Climate Change and Energy Efficiency, through the National Climate Change Adaptation Research Facility's Marine Biodiversity and Resources Adaptation Research Network, the Fisheries Research and Development Corporation, and CSIRO's Climate Adaptation National Research Flagship.

Listen, Obamaphiles!
Outrage at McCain's "lies" is a total loser strategy.
Does Earl Ofari Hutchinson really not think absentee fatherhood is a huge problem for African-Americans? ... I'm not sure Cosbyesque scolding by public officials the way to solve it, but that's a different issue. ... P.S.: If Hutchinson didn't write this unconvincing, wounded PC attack on Obama, Obama's staff would have had to recruit someone to do it. ... Sample: Hutchinson makes a big deal of a study showing that "black fathers who aren't in the home are much more likely to sustain regular contact with their children than absentee white fathers, or for that matter, fathers of any other ethnic group." But he doesn't say what percent of black fathers--vs. fathers of other ethnic groups--aren't in the home. Seems relevant! ... 11:55 P.M.
Jason Linkins buries a good idea: Obama should fight smears against McCain on the same site where he fights smears against himself. He'd get credit for civility and decency while publicizing the dirt on his opponent! ... P.S.: It's better than the old "I would never consider making Cindy McCain a campaign issue" dodge. ... 11:24 P.M.
Obama's embarrassing Jerusalem walkback. ... Also here ("Didn't Obama have advisors ...?"). ... 8:29 P.M.
Oy, Hollywood Liberals: DreamWorks Animation mogul Jeffrey Katzenberg on a red carpet:
"Obama is the greatest ... Nothing this great has happened to us in a long time. The only thing we have to worry about is what we'll have to wear to the inauguration." [E.A.]
I don't think it will be that easy! ... P.S.: You see what we have to put up with out here. ... 8:23 P.M.

A dear reader made a couple of requests yesterday and I managed to whip out a few new sets of workbox tags. She very kindly reminded this mama to 4 girls that there are actually boys in the world. And they like to workbox, too! Her boys, in particular, love sports and anything with superheroes. So here are a few of the sets that were in my head that actually made it to the store today. I have a few more ideas that might get there in the coming week, but we'll see how long the baby naps for!
Boys Playing Sports $2.00
I admit, the name of this set isn't terribly creative or inspiring, but just look at those cuties! And if you can come up with a better name, leave it in the comment section and I'll be glad to change it.
Next up:
Super Boys! $2.00
I can just picture them launching themselves off my couch….
Third in the line up today:
Super Girls! $2.00
I just couldn't let the boys have all the fun today. So I had to make this Super Girls set. Lots of pink and purple and super girly-ness
And last, because I couldn't resist that cute little face:
Super Mouse! $2.00
This little Super Mouse sure looks ready to take on whatever bad guy comes to ruin our workboxes, doesn't he?
Well, 4 new sets of workbox tags (and more to come) all inspired by one little email from a dear reader. You know what she got as a thank you? A 50% off coupon. Yup! She can order as much as she wants from the store and get it half price.
Do you want one of those coupons? Send me a suggestion! I'll not only make sure you have cute workbox tags to fit your theme, I'll send you a 1/2 off coupon as a thank you for the inspiration.
Happy Workboxing!

A child with diabetes benefits from the same kind of healthy diet as people without diabetes. In fact, your whole family can eat the same healthy meals together. Although kids with diabetes don't have to follow a special diabetes diet, they may need to pay more attention to when they eat and how much is on their plates.
Some of the meal planning goals for children with diabetes are the same as those for other kids: They need to eat meals that help them have good overall health, normal growth , and a healthy weight . But children with diabetes also have to balance their carbohydrate intake with their insulin and activity levels to keep their blood sugar levels under control. In addition, kids with diabetes should also eat foods that help keep the levels of lipids, or fats, in the blood (like cholesterol and triglycerides) in a healthy range. Eating this way can help prevent some of the long-term health problems that diabetes can cause.
Children with diabetes face the same food challenges as everyone else - mainly, sticking with healthy eating habits over time. It can be hard with so many temptations, so it's important to prepare foods that your child enjoys. The meal plan you create may vary depending on your child's diabetes management plan, but with the help of your child's diabetes health care team, you can tailor meal planning to your child's food preferences and eating habits.
When you're planning and preparing meals for your child, you have to know what's in the foods you're serving and eating. It's easy to guess what some foods contain, but others are more of a challenge. That's where food labels come in. Food labels list a food's ingredients, nutritional information, and calories.
One important thing to look at on a food label is carbohydrates, which can have an impact on your child's blood sugar levels. Usually, carbohydrates are clearly listed on food labels in grams. There are two main forms of carbohydrates: sugars and starches. Types of sugars include fructose (sugar found in fruit and some baked goods), glucose (the main sugar in our bodies that's also found in foods like cake, cookies, and soft drinks), and lactose (sugar found in milk and yogurt). Types of starches include starchy vegetables like potatoes, corn, and peas; grains, rice, and cereals; and breads.
The body breaks down or converts most carbohydrates into glucose, which is absorbed into the bloodstream. As the glucose level rises in the blood, the pancreas releases a hormone called insulin . Insulin is needed to move glucose from the blood into the cells, where it can be used as a source of energy.
Regardless of the specific meal plan that your child's doctor recommends (see below), it's important to be aware of the carbohydrates in foods, so you can learn to balance carbohydrate intake, activity levels, and insulin to achieve the best possible control of your child's diabetes. You can figure out your child's carbohydrate intake by checking the serving size (amount) and the amount of carbohydrates per serving on the food label and determining how many servings your child eats. Here's an example:
Serving size: 1/2 cup (120 milliliters)
Carbohydrates per serving: 7 grams
Amount of food eaten: 1 cup (240 milliliters)
Grams of carbohydrates eaten: 14 grams (7 grams per serving times 2 servings)
There is no one right amount of carbohydrates that your child should eat. The amount of carbohydrates that a child needs per day will depend on many things, including the child's age, size, weight goal, exercise level, medications, and other medical issues. The recommended carbohydrate intake is different for each child and can even differ in the same child from day to day. Your child's diabetes health care team will give you and your child guidelines for carbohydrate intake as part of the meal plan.
You may also want to pay special attention to the sodium (salt) content of the foods you serve. Sodium content is also listed on food labels. Eating too much sodium is linked to the development of high blood pressure, or hypertension . Because some children with diabetes have hypertension, they may need to keep sodium intake within the levels recommended by the doctor to reduce the risk of high blood pressure problems. It's a good idea to go easy on sodium, even if your child doesn't have hypertension.
It's also a good idea to pay attention to the amount of fat and the type of fat that foods contain. Saturated fats, cholesterol, and trans fats can all contribute to the development of heart disease. People with diabetes are at greater risk of developing heart disease, especially if they have abnormal levels of lipids (fats) in their blood. Talk with your child's doctor or dietitian about what kind of limits you may need to set on your child's intake of fats.
Aside from these considerations, parents might check food labels for the same reasons they do for themselves or other children. For example, watching calories helps a person maintain a healthy weight. It's also important to make sure that your family gets enough vitamins, minerals, and fiber and eats a well-balanced diet in general.
Helping your child balance carbohydrate intake, physical activity, and insulin to maintain good blood sugar control starts with nutritious foods - the same ones everyone should eat for good health. Try to make each meal a good balance of carbohydrates and other nutrients, both for diabetes management and to make meals satisfying. Here are some estimates to shoot for over the course of a day:
You and your child will learn meal planning guidelines from the diabetes health care team. Meal planning will be based on the foods that your child usually eats. The team may also ask you and your child to keep a detailed food diary for 3 days to get a good idea of what your child likes to eat and what amounts of food your child is accustomed to having.
The diabetes health care team may recommend other meal planning guidelines, depending on your child's individual nutritional needs. For example, if your child has a weight loss goal, then the doctor or dietician may focus on controlling calories more closely.
Although every child with diabetes will have a distinct set of needs and an individualized meal plan to fit those needs, three kinds of meal plans are commonly used: the exchange meal plan, the constant carbohydrate meal plan, and the carbohydrate counting meal plan.
Some people with diabetes, especially those who have just developed the condition, use a food-balancing program called the exchange meal plan to guide what they eat each day. For this meal plan, foods are typically divided into six groups: starch, fruit, milk, fat, vegetable, and meat. The plan sets a serving size (amount) for foods in each group, with each serving having a similar amount of calories, protein, carbohydrates, and fat. This allows the person flexibility in planning meals by exchanging, or substituting, choices from lists of foods with similar nutritional content. The number of exchanges (servings) from each food group recommended for each meal and snack is based on the total number of calories the person needs per day.
Your child's diabetes health care team can provide you with exchange lists, which are also available through the American Diabetes Association (ADA). This meal plan is particularly useful for people with diabetes who are overweight or others who need to pay closer attention to the amount of calories and nutrients they eat each day.
The remaining two meal planning approaches are also based on eating a balanced diet. But these two plans specifically focus on matching the amount of insulin or diabetes medications a person takes with the amount of carbohydrates they eat. With the constant carbohydrate meal plan , the person eats set amounts of carbohydrates in each meal and snack. Then he or she takes insulin or other diabetes medicines at consistent times and amounts each day to handle the rises in blood sugar that occur with meals. Although it lacks flexibility, this plan has the advantage of being simple to follow for people whose food intake and physical activity levels are fairly consistent from day to day.
Another option is the carbohydrate counting meal plan . Many people with diabetes now use carbohydrate (carb) counting to estimate the amount of carbohydrates in the foods they eat at each meal or snack. They then match their insulin dosage to that carb amount. This plan is most useful for people who manage their diabetes by taking a dose of insulin (as a shot or given through an insulin pump) with each meal. This technique can help people achieve better control of blood sugar levels as they manage their diabetes. It also allows more flexibility because the person takes insulin when meals are eaten, not at the same set times each day.
Keeping a written record of what your child eats can help you and the diabetes team create and change your child's dietary plan as needed. You might continue to track your child's carbohydrate intake alongside blood sugar readings in a blood glucose record to see how well food and insulin are being balanced. Kids can keep track while they're at school or away from home. If you need to make insulin adjustments, this written record can help you understand why and help you decide how much and at what time your child should have the new dosage.
It can also help you plan if you keep a few quick references handy, such as charts that show portion sizes and how many carbohydrates various foods contain. Your child's diabetes health care team or a nutritionist can supply this information, and the ADA offers it as well.
If you ever feel stuck while you're planning nutritious, well-balanced meals, inspiration is never far. Cookbooks and recipe websites offer lots of healthy meal suggestions - many of which you can prepare quickly and easily. With diabetes knowledge and the right tools, you'll be prepared to help your child eat right for good health.

My background is rooted in gymnastics, dance, deep tissue massage and 20 years of yoga classes. When teaching I try my best to be playful as we move through classes with a clear foundation in anatomy, intelligent alignment, hands on adjustments and challenging heat building sequences. Students are encouraged to cultivate a deep passion for self-examination, light hearted exploration as well as full body strength, flexibility and awareness. Also I do like to sing;)
Todd and I built South Boston Yoga from a small one room studio a few years ago to a sprawling 4 studio space with thriving and exciting yoga, 22 aerial swings, disco balls for dancing, meditation and massage rooms. We absolutely love the yoga community in Boston and are so proud to call this city our home. Lululemon has been a source of support and inspiration from the very start and they seriously rock my world!

"Felt like family"
My family and I stayed at this hotel because we went to look at a local college for my daughter. After 6 hours of driving, we were exhausted when we arrived. I came in and was greeted by Curtis at the desk. He was so nice and welcoming, I was actually taken by surprise. He offered cookies and coffee for me and my family. I was amazed. I casually asked […] him about the college and how far it was. Then I went to get my bags out of the car. As I walked back into the hotel, Curtis had a printout of the directions to the college and the address for it. He then introduced me and my family to his co-worker Doug, who actually was a graduate of the college we were looking at. Doug spent a few minutes answering questions and making us feel so welcome. The room we stayed at was HUGE, clean and very comfortable. In the morning when we went to check out, I spoke to Peggy. She was wonderful and courteous and very helpful. The breakfast was standard but it was plenty and had a good variety. My daughter will be going to the college that we looked at, so for the next 4 years, Hampton Inn Syracuse Clay will be my home away from home. LisateaveKontrollitud Hotels.com kliendiarvustus

Bolingbrook soccer retooling after ACL injury hurts attack
Striker Rachel Schneider to miss season with ACL injury.
BOLINGBROOK — The dreaded ACL injury strikes again.
Just as Bolingbrook's girls soccer team was hitting its stride with Rachel Schneider at the top of the attack as a striker, Schneider tore her ACL and will miss the rest of the season.
"We've been trying to figure out how to replace her and trying to figure out how our offense is going to look without her," coach Martin Uscila said.

New Single "Heart Attack" Available Now!
A group to show the great affection and admiration that we feel the Portuguese since the early career of Enrique Iglesias!
Location: Castelo Branco, Portugal
Members: 30
Latest Activity: Aug 12
27 October 2007
This will be a day that will be always in my memory, living the years to live!
The day I saw my 1st concert of Enrique Iglesias "!!!!!
I'm still without words ...
was beautiful, fun, entrancing, I know there was more amazing than I imagined!
The Atlantic Pavilion was not full but was well composed, thousands of fans were there ready to watch a show. I had VIP tickets, was on the left sleeve of the central, the 3rd row, seat 23.
I came to the Pavilion around 21:10, was still less than half the public, then began to compose himself.
They were about to be 22pm when the lights begin to erase.
The public started to come into euphoria ... was to reach the big time!
I was nervous and very anxious at the same time, could not be quiet.
There was movement of people on stage, but nothing of Enrique Iglesias!
The music starts, we are the sound of "Ring my bells", we heard that voice sexy, but where is Enrique Iglesias? Suddenly, Enrique appears on stage by a platform that Get the bottom of the stage!
It is the complete delusion in the Pavilion! The euphoria was installed at its highest level (of hysterical screams, applause, whistles).
There was one figure who wanted, even there on stage in front of me (I was more or less than 3 meters of the stage). Ali was the person who always dreamed to see live ever in life, there he was, beautiful to die!
T-shirt dark superimposed a white, from jeans to trousers, he was there!
I cried with emotion, so many times that I dreamed for a moment like this ...
You know the feeling of seeing a dream realized? A dream that always seems difficult to achieve? Know what is happening years and years to see our dream idol live, and suddenly there we are with him a few steps for us!
I'm still confused with emotion, even now, when closing your eyes and remember that moment, I can not let the tears come to my eyes ...
Then follows the song "I love to see you cry! Nobody is sitting in the Pavilion, fans deliram.
Before the third song, Enrique Iglesias said in Portuguese: "Como estás Lisboa? Hoje vamos dar-te o melhor que temos." Then you hear the first chords of "Prom" and is the total delirium.
"Rhithm Divine" was the song that followed, nobody is indifferent to the rhythm, is contagious.
This was followed by "Could I Have This Kiss Forever," magnificent performance, both Enrique and the girl who accompanies the choir.
The most surprising happened then: the organization put a couch on stage where Enrique Iglesias and his band have settled, and Enrique invited a couple of fans to join them on stage. This was followed by humorous moments and the most romantic of the night: the lovers who had the admiration expressed by Enrique, shouting loudly in English "We love you Enrique."
Enrique says he feels great affection for Ireland, which was here in our country that achieved its first gold disc, and sings a little "religious experience".
The most romantic moment of the night happened next: driven by time and encouraged by Enrique, the couple put up on his knees and asked his girlfriend to marry and it is obvious that the answer was yes. After this time, Enrique left the couple on the couch and went to the sleeve of the stage to sing "The Knocking On Heaven's Door" by Bob Dylan. Entrancing with all that time, the fan who ran on stage was the mango and surprised Enrique Iglesias, taking it to the neck and lifting it to the air, which caused a general laugh throughout the Atlantic Pavilion.
Then Enrique sings in Spanish "La Chica de Ayer" then tells us that the music that will follow is the most beautiful and preferred the new album "INSOMNIAC", the song is "Tired of Being Sorry".
Suddenly turns off the lights of the stage for a moment ...
Enrique returned at its best the sound of "Do You Know? (The Ping Pong Song), returned to complete the delusion Pavilion. Back with t-shirt and white cap.
Enrique circulated throughout that vast stage, he sang right there in front, where I was, he went by stage to the other end, he traveled the sleeve. He took the mobile phones of fans and he took the photos, was to be irresistible!
Here is the song "Hero" and "Escape", were all to vibrate with the spectacle, the effects of light, everything spotless and wonderful.
At the sound of "Sweat Dreams", an original of the Eurythmics, and a huge rain bands of white and silver paper, Enrique Iglesias was "swallowed" by the scene that opened at his feet, and giant screens in the phrase "Sweat Dreams-Good Night, "accompanying the music.
Thus ended the concert, my first concert of Enrique Iglesias ...
But one thing I say, it was my first but not the last! I will come back!
I am happy, more a dream realized!
I like to share this experience with you all here!
As says the music of Enrique Iglesias " foi uma experiencia religiosa" and also of his music: " Puede passar três mil años pero nunca te olvidare"
Until the next
Elsa Ribeiro
This group does not have any discussions yet.
Happy Birthday to Enrique Iglesias <3 <3 <3
Smp é mais pertinho que o México :) Eu vou ... Enrique Portugal estará lá :D
Pessoal, concerto em Madrid a 4 de Maio!!! O mais próximo para já!!!
Vou me juntar ao grupo. *-*

Hey redhornet congratulations on earning 1.02 MM points, very good. Lets be buddies also. Thanks. Shep
Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
Today is our buddy MinnesotaDJ's birthday, and I am throwing her a Whiteboard Birthday Party. Please post a birthday message on her whiteboard. Thanks!!!
Hi Red I have to agree with you in this dispute about Ethanol, it has several benefits. Please accept the buddy request I sent earlier. Thanks
Three years on GB, good luck keep posting ...Be my gas buddy from Minnesota
goalie1950 yoy don't even have a clue in farming I see that.Ethanol keeps the food prices low.The byproducts from ethanol is DDG'S low cost feed for cattle producers = what cheap food prices.Without ethanol your food prices would alot higher and fuel around $1.65 more per gallon.
I don't understand goalie1950 stating that ethanol is detrimental to internal combustion engines. Here in Arizona, we require E-10 during the winter months to reduce the amount of poisonous carbon monoxide produced by all internal combustion engines. We have temperature inversions during the winter that trap the CO near the surface. E-10 is suitable for use in all engines, but higher levels can cause rubber and some plastic parts to swell and deteriorate, unless it is a flex fuel vehicle. Want to become buddies??? Warren :-)
Not looking to get into a war of words, but you are the guy that needs to become educated. Your profile says you're a farmer. So you should know that, yes food prices HAVE gotten higher because farmers divert more of their corn crop for use as ethanol instead of food for the table. In addition, ethanol has been proven to be a detriment to the internal combustion engines requiring more frequent engine repairs. Think about it before you start "running your lips".
Great comment about "Green Energy" today. Want to become buddies??? Warren :-)
Hey redhornet, interesting picture. What is it? Don't have many GB from Mn. Care to be my new GB?

Comments about Riot Polarity 16.5 Tandem Kayak - Special Buy:
Looking for a solid plastic tandem kayak I could use to introduce my son to the hobby. Looked around a couple months. Was introduced to the Riot at REI.I had not heard of them before and certainly never saw a hull design like the Riot Polarity had but it did not take long to see this was a fairly solid built plastic boat for the money. The deck hardware caught my eye first and looked really sturdy, good solid seats and adjustability. The storage is what you would expect for a boat under 17' and comes with plastic covers and neopreme hoods underneath. The hull has a tunnel design running down the center of the hull making it the most stable kayak I have been in. It would take a lot of effort to flip this kayak. Helps it track well also but is hard to turn without using the rudder because of the hull design. The rear foot pegs that control the rudder are solid and easy to adjust while seated in the kayak by two pull straps to adjust the pegs forward or back. The kayak cockpits are a good distance from the front cockpit to the rear cockpit. I'm 6'1" and my son 5"11". We use 230cm paddels and have not hit each other yet when out of paddeling sync. Has very solid mounted beefy carry handles front and rear. You will need them as this kayak is on the heavy side for it's lenght at about 75 lbs but its all in the plastic. One can sit on the deck and not get much flex. I looked at several that were so thin you could push the deck or hull in areas with one hand. Not for me. I was looking for something rugged that could take a beating, dropped, run up on rocks ect.. This kayak looked like it would. We decided to buy it and as this was happening my son saw it online with his smartphone in the special buy section of the REI site. He mentioned it and the REI Rep looked it up on line and there it was for a couple hundred less. He gave it to use with no hassel and we have been enjoying it ever since.
Great for lakes and rivers. We have had it out in the sound with 2'chops and no issue. Hammers right through. At 16' 5" not to much room for multi day trips. It works for an over night packing tent, sleeping bags, minimal food ect...Have to shove items anywhere and everywhere to pull it off. We do and we have fun with it!

Comments about Riot Polarity 16.5 Tandem Kayak - Special Buy:
Amazing value. Great combination of stability, maneuverability and speed. Handles choppy seas and wind easily. Cockpits are close so paddling sync helps and at 6'2 I have plenty of room in back but front is cramped. No problems paddling solo but a bit much for one person to handle on land.

Comments about Riot Polarity 16.5 Tandem Kayak - Special Buy:
My first Tandem was a 16 ft Poly Folboat Sprint bought in 1995. Bought the Riot Polarity 16.5 for 2 reasons. First Being retired, wanted another boat that was faster and could be used in ocean bays and easy paddling rivers. The boat is fast and reasoanbly stable for the canamran bottom. The high profile of this boat would make it great in ocean swells I presume. We bought a tandem dolly to help move the boat around for loading and storage since the boat weighs 94 lbs.
Second reason I bought this boat, so we can take others paddling with us, now that my wife's adult children have an interest in paddling.
Other notes: The boat has a lot of water tight storage and is quality built with many nice options.

Freegal Music FAQ
Thank you for trying the new music download service from Freegal Music. We've identified a few issues that have occurred for some users. Please review the following information to see if your question is addressed.
My song only downloaded partially or only the first few seconds of my song plays...
Once in a while, your Internet connection may be interrupted or time out and you might experience an incomplete or problem download. Freegal Music allows you to download previously downloaded songs again, without using up one of your weekly downloads.
Songs you've had trouble downloading during the current week or previous week can be downloaded again.
To re-download a song, log in to Freegal Music, and click on the Recent Downloads link located at the top of the page. Then, click the "Download Now" link for the song you had trouble downloading to save it again.
You have two (2) download attempts for each song in the Recent Downloads page. If you re-download a song twice, the "Download Now" link will change to say "Limit Exceeded" and the song will be removed from your Recent Downloads page.
I log in to Freegal Music, accept the terms and conditions, and then I'm taken to the About Us page or given a notice that I'm not authorized to view the site.
There may be a setting on your computer that is preventing you from logging in to Freegal Music. There are a couple things you could try that may enable you to get through.
Try clearing your browser history and deleting your browser cookies. How to clear the browser cookies and history varies from browser to browser, but typically, you can do it by opening the browser, and clicking on the Tools menu. From there it might be under a "Delete browsing history" option (if you're are using Internet Explorer) or "Clear Recent History" (if you're using Firefox). From there, you should see options specific to browser history and cookies. If you are using Internet Explorer, you may also try putting your security settings back to default.
Internet Explorer setting
If you are using Internet Explorer 7 or 8, you may need to adjust how your browser treats temporary internet files. You can get to this option by following these steps:
- Open Internet Explorer
- Click on the Tool menu
- Select "Internet Options"
- In the General tab section, in the "Browsing history" area, click on the Settings button
- In the "Temporary Internet Files and History Settings" dialog box, select the option for "Every time I visit the webpage" (by default "Automatically" is selected)
- Click the OK button
- Click the Apply button
- Click OK
- Close Internet Explorer and then re-open it and try accessing Freegal Music again: https://dclibrary.freegalmusic.com/users/sdlogin
Firewall setting
It's possible there's a conflict with any antivirus or firewall settings you have on your computer. If you are comfortable doing it, please try turning off your antivirus and/or firewall settings and try accessing Freegal Music again (beginning with the Freegal Music login page found here: https://dclibrary.freegalmusic.com/users/sdlogin).
Using the "Logout" link
This may also happen if another household member is not using the "Logout" link when done with the Freegal Music site (or if you are using Freegal Music on two different computers). Simply closing the browser does not clear a user's session from Freegal Music. To resolve this issue, try having the other person in the household use the "Logout" link in Freegal Music and then try accessing the site. You may need to clear your browser initially.
If none of these suggestions work, please send us the following information and we'll continue to troubleshoot the issue:
- What browser you're using (Internet Explorer? Firefox?)
- What's your operating system? (Windows Vista? OSX?)
- What's your connection? (Dial-up? Broadband?)
- What's your antivirus software?
I only downloaded two songs, but when I go to download the third song, I'm told I've exceeded my limit. What happened to my third download?
It's possible you inadvertently clicked on the "Download Now" link. Anytime you click on the "Download Now" link, even if you cancel the download, a download is used from your weekly allotment. If you're confident this isn't what happened, please send us your library card information and we'll continue to troubleshoot the issue.
Nothing happens when I click on the play arrow to listen to the song sample...
If you're having an issue playing song samples, please check that your browser Flash Player is version 10 or higher. Please note as well that Freegal Music is only fully supported on Internet Explorer 7, 8, or 9, Firefox, Safari, and Google Chrome; it is not supported on AOL Explorer browser.
I downloaded a song, but I can't find where it is on my computer.
We highly recommend that when downloading a song, you select the option to save the file to a specific location on your computer. However, if you didn't specify a location or you opted to open the file without saving it, there are a couple things you can try to locate where the song was saved.
If you are using Windows Media Player...
- Open Windows Media Player
- Click on the File menu
- Toward the bottom of the menu, you should see a list of all recently played music
- Click on the song file you got from Freegal Music, this should cause it to play
- While in the Now Playing mode (you can click on the "Now Playing" tab to get there), you should see the song listed under Now Playing
- Right-click on the song title and select Properties from the menu
- You should now be able to see where the file has been saved to on your computer, listed next to "Location:" in the properties window
- From the Properties window, you can also select "Open file location" and this will cause a dialog box to open the folder that contains the file. From there you can copy or drag it to your desktop or wherever else you'd like to keep it.
If you are using iTunes...
- Open iTunes
- Locate the song in your music
- Right-click on the song title
- Select "Get Info"
- Select the "Summary" tab (by default it's the tab that's open in the "Get Info" dialog box
- Toward the bottom of the dialog box, there is a "Where" section which tells you the folder path where the song is located
You may find through Windows Media Player or iTunes that the song file is located in a Temporary Internet File. You can go to "My Computer" from the Start menu on your computer and double-click through each of the folders listed in the "Location:" or "Where" box (depending on which media player you are using). Typically you'd start with your C: drive (usually called the Local Hard Disk), then click through "Documents and Settings" then the next folder and so on and so forth, to get to the song MP3 file. Once you get to the file, you can then drag it (or copy and paste it) to another location (your desktop for example). If it's left in the temporary folder there's potential for it to be deleted by your computer system automatically.
You might also try searching your computer for the files. Try limiting your search to music files and using the artist's name or part of the song title as the search term. You may need to adjust your advanced search settings so that hidden folders are included in the search.
If you are unable to find the song on your computer, you can re-download the song through the "Recent Downloads" link at the top of the screen in Freegal Music. Be sure to designate a location to save the download. You have two (2) download attempts for each song in the Recent Downloads page.

i just got my brand new v13 ps2 slim professionally modded and have the following problems.
plugged it in, boots up fine, then bam..reboot..again...again...and again....
each time the ps2 would run fine for about 10 seconds before reboot. I couldn't even turn it off, the machine would reboot itself even when off(standby).
I unplugged it for 10 minutes, then decided to give it another go, surprisingly it no longer reboots, everything seems to work fine.
fast forward 30 minutes, i'm playing dynasty warriors 5 and it freezes twice. by now i noticed that the fan is on full blast and the ps2 is quite hot.
I updated the firmware to 1.54 hoping that would solve the problem. Again i'm playing dynasty warriors 5 and it freezes 3 times, the first 2 times it came back after a few seconds, the third time it froze solid, i couldn't even turn it off, the light stays green, reset button has no effect.
obviously i'm a little irrated by this, being a brand new ps2 and all.
i appreciate any help or advice you gurus might have, I'll have to send it back if this keeps on.

Great product and Service....
Review by: Todd, West Monroe La., 3/7/2006 6:57:24 PM
The boot is very comfortable. I love the feel and being able to slide my foot in and simply zip it up. Fits a little wide but it is not bothersome at all. Great traction and the all leather looks great.

I took these boots out of the box and was planning on wearing them around for a few hours to break them in. I ended up wearing them all week. I didn''t have to break them in they were comfortable out of the box. The size was just perfect. Not too snug that I can''t wear a thick pair of socks with them if I want to. I wore them in a snow storm yesterday with no problems.
Review by: D Perry, Minneapolis MN, 8/17/2007 4:12:38 PM
One of the most comfortable duty boots ever. Better than the Hi-Tech Magnum.. They are comfortable on your feet for long periods of time gives you flexibility like a sneaker for running and physical endurance and an EXCELLENT boot for just stomping... I very much recommend this boot.
Review by: Rob, Cloquet MN, 10/28/2008 3:56:54 PM
The best boot I''ve ever had.
Review by: Reg, CA, 11/12/2007 2:25:07 PM
It is certainly water proof and comfortable. I like the quick fasteners better than the loops however. Cost a bit high for the value.

Residence Halls Choosing to live in a St. Catherine's residence hall or apartment is a good decision. Here you will enjoy easy access to all of the College's facilities, services and programs on both campuses. You'll also find many opportunities to meet people and get involved in campus activities such as the Residence Hall Association. The friendships you make and the experiences you share while living on campus will be among the most memorable events of your college career. There are academic benefits to living on campus as well. Resident students tend to have better study habits, higher grade point averages and more interaction with faculty members. The Residence Life Guidebook is an introduction to your responsibilities as a resident student. The guidebook is an extension of your Housing and Dining Agreement; you are responsible for the information contained within it. ST. MARY HALL St. Mary Hall is the home to resident first-year students. Living in a residence hall with other first-year women allows you to build your own community and find the special support you need in your first year of college. St. Mary Hall has all the St. Catherine's amenities, including computers, TV and study lounges, laundry facilities and a kitchen. It is the largest residence hall on campus, with approximately 24 double rooms on each floor. The student center, campus library and dining services are conveniently located next door, and the workout facilities of the Aimee and Patrick Butler Center for Sports and Fitness are just a 10-second dash across the street. STANTON AND CRANDALL HALLS These two buildings are identical and are attached by a walkway on the first floor. Stanton and Crandall Halls are also reserved for our new and first year students. Stanton and Crandall provide a quiet and peaceful atmosphere. With fewer students per floor than most of our residence halls, students who live here find it is very easy to build community throughout the entire building. Each floor of double and single rooms provides housing for 25 students. Located near the library, student center, dining services, and directly across from the Aimee and Patrick Butler Center for Sports and Fitness, residents are able to exercise their bodies as well as their minds. Rooms are carpeted and the furniture is built-in. WHITBY HALL A quaint 1920s building, Whitby Hall is more than just a residence hall — it also houses the English, Spanish, French, nursing, history and theology departments, as well as faculty offices. The top two floors of the building are the residence hall. Each room has large windows with great views of the campus and the Minneapolis skyline, beautiful woodwork and high ceilings. More than 100 students live in Whitby's single and double rooms. Each floor has a full kitchen, laundry facilities and lounges with computers and televisions. CAECILIAN HALL Graced with large windows, elegant woodwork, wide hallways and spacious interiors, this 1930s building is a favorite choice for many students. You may choose from single, double, triple or quad rooms. With newly decorated lounges on every floor, plus the popular Sky Lounge off the fourth floor, Caecilian Hall has numerous places for studying, relaxing, and watching TV. A kitchen is located on the main floor and laundry facilities are in the building. ALBERTA APARTMENTS AND GEORGIA APARTMENTS Upperclass students and nontraditional students (transfers, older students and/or those with spouses and dependent children) may reside in these apartment buildings located on the southeast corner of campus. Each building has 36 one and two bedroom apartments that are furnished and have air conditioning. Each apartment also features a full kitchen. Rent includes utilities, and there is no requirement to sign up for the College's meal plan. Sorry, pets are not allowed. Availability is limited because of the apartments' popularity among returning students. Students living in the Georgia and Alberta apartments must be at least 20 years old unless they are married and/or have children. The College reserves a minimum of 12 units in the Alberta Apartments for students with children. More information about Student Parent Housing can be found at the Student Parent Housing Web page. The Residence Life Office coordinates all on-campus housing. Professional and student staff members strive to offer a quality on-campus experience by building respectful living communities in a learning-supportive environment. NEW RESIDENCE HALL The new Residence Hall is scheduled to be open Fall 2007 to house seniors, juniors and some sophomores. This complex will consist of a residence hall with two wings, each housing approximately 150 students. The west wing will consist of four-bedroom suites with four singles, a bathroom, kitchenette and a common living space. Some suites will consist of one double room and two singles. Half of the units in the south wing will also be suites while the remaining half will be full apartments with two bathrooms, a full kitchen and a larger common living area. Residents of this building will benefit from the generous community space with separate social and study lounges with wireless computer access. Each floor will also have laundry facilities and a guest bathroom. Most floors will also have a full kitchen and a computer lab. The two wings will be connected by a beautiful commons area perfect for gathering with friends and forming study groups. The common area will include a seminar room supporting learning communities, a full kitchen, a reception desk, staff offices and a gorgeous fireplace. MINNEAPOLIS CAMPUS HOUSING Living on campus, you will be where the action is, yet you will avoid the hassles and expenses of commuting. The Minneapolis campus provides affordable housing for both men and women. The residence hall offers security entries, stained glass windows, a Mississippi River view, computer labs, TV lounges and kitchens.

How Tos
Oven-Dried vs. Stale Bread for Stuffing
What's the difference between using oven-dried bread and stale bread for stuffing? Why does stuffing made with stale bread turn out slimy?
Always Finish Pan Sauces with Butter Off Heat
When a recipe calls for finishing a sauce with butter, why must it be added off the heat?
Sprinkling Minced Garlic with Salt
Chefs on TV often sprinkle salt on garlic when they chop it. Why?

Grilling chicken pieces without flare-ups as fat drips down into the grill can be a real challenge. Here are a few tips to help combat this problem.

When brining chicken breasts, should you change the brine recipe if you add extra chicken to the brine bucket?
Can Potato Starch be Substituted for Cornstarch to Thicken Sauces?
Not all starches are created equally.
Twelve Steps to Sheet Pan Pizza
Also called Sicilian or cafeteria-style pizza, sheet pan pizza is delicious, feeds a crowd, and is much less fussy than thin-crust pizza. Lengthy fermenting times, pizza stones, and super-hot ovens not required.
Will the Addition of a Potato to a Pot of Frying Doughnuts Make the Doughnuts Less Greasy?
Does adding a potato to a pot of frying doughnuts result in doughnuts that are less greasy?

When I bake frozen casseroles, they often bubble over. I tried putting a casserole on a baking sheet to catch the drips, but it took longer to bake. Why?
Egg Whites 101
Whipping egg whites is a core technique for the seasoned baker, as well as one of the miracles of baking. Our recipe for Angel Food Cake illustrates some of the test kitchen's guiding egg white principles.
Cleaning Up Cooking Oil
What's the best way to clean up an oil slick in the kitchen if you, say, drop a bottle of vegetable oil?

Cheap hotels near Museo di San Marco in Florence, Italy
The Museo di San Marco, located in the Convent of San Marco, is an impressive museum located inside the San Marco complex of religious buildings.
The museum houses a major collection of work by Fra Angelico, one of the former residents of the convent and a masterful painter. In addition, San Marco offers a library with a vast collection of manuscripts.
The on-site convent, which is of Dominican origin, was consecrated and founded in 1436, although most of the buildings were later constructed during the 16th and 17th centuries. (Savonarola, the feisty Dominican friar who denounced Renaissance extravagance, was also a resident of the convent.)
For tickets and exhibits, visit the museum's Web site.

Man sentenced after stealing more than $290,000 from Oak Brook employer
OAK BROOK – DuPage County State's Attorney Robert Berlin announced that Shaun Horan, 32 of 1673 Blackwell Lane, Aurora, has been sentenced to 54 months in the Illinois Department of Corrections for stealing more than $290,000 from his former employer, Resource One, in Oak Brook.
On June 19, Horan entered a blind plea of guilty to one count of theft over $100,000, a Class 1 felony, in front of Judge Robert Kleeman.
From 2007 through 2011, Horan worked as an accountant at Resource One. During this four-year period, Horan wrote himself 96 unauthorized checks totaling $291,237.23 from company accounts. In an attempt to conceal the thefts, Horan either deleted or changed entries in the company's books.
