After an entire day of anticipation on Saturday following the leaking of the alleged racist remarks made by Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling, NBA commissioner Adam Silver took to the podium in Memphis this evening to address the incident.
Following a brief, pre-written statement by the new commissioner, he fielded questions from the media in attendance, and one happened to be about the length of the investigation. Silver had stated that Sterling will be afforded due process, however he does hope to have everything wrapped up rather quickly, hopefully within the next few days.
Silver on the Sterling investigation: We hope to have this wrapped up in the next few days…
— Josina Anderson (@JosinaAnderson) April 27, 2014
No matter how long it takes, though, I am sure that no one will truly be happy unless this ends up with Sterling never being affiliated with the NBA ever again.
From this point though, only time will tell how all of this will be handled and what the outcome will be when all is said and done.

Girardi: 'The process has started'By
During his postgame interview with Kim Jones, Joe Girardi fielded a question about Joba's throwing a career-high 35 pitches tonight. His response: "The process has started." That process, of course, is turning Joba from a reliever back into a starter. Girardi, in announcing one of the more significant in-season moves the Yanks will make this year, was very matter-of-fact about it. So here it goes…
Update: Courtesy of Mike's DVR, we have a transcript:
Kim Jones: What are we to read into it, Joe, that Joba pitches two innings and it looked like he started the ninth with a couple of change-ups?
Joe Girardi: Well, the process has started converting Joba to a starter, and tonight was the first [time] extending him a little bit, and we'll continue to do it and get him up to where he can throw enough pitches.

Not sure whether it was verified or not, but there was a BNP tweet going around, something along the lines of "Text this number and give £3 to the BNP. We wouldn't let immigrants in to destroy our city" or something to that affect.
I really dislike the BNP...

As history tells us parties such as the BNP only become a prominent force when people are fed up with their governament and look for extreme action due to fear - it never happens when governement's deal with the situation as the public then have no-one to fear.....come on Cameron sort it out!

Jump to my Nikon Guides page
|If Nikon has one advantage over many of the other vendors of digital
SLRs (other than making great, affordable cameras), it's the mind-bending
assortment of high-quality lenses available to enhance the capabilities
of cameras like the Nikon D300. You can use thousands of current and older
lenses introduced by Nikon and third-party vendors since 1959 (although
lenses made before 1977 may need an inexpensive modification.) These can
give you a wider view, bring distant subjects closer, let you focus closer,
shoot under lower light conditions, or provide a more detailed, sharper
image for critical work. Other than the sensor itself, the lens you choose
for your dSLR is the most important component in determining image quality
and perspective of your images.
You can click on a link below to see my lens recommendations for specific Nikon digital SLRs. But, when choosing your first lens, consider these factors:
Fast/close focusing. Your first lens should have a speedy autofocus system (which is where the Silent Wave motor found in all but the bargain basement lenses is an advantage). Close focusing (to 12 inches or closer) will let you use your basic lens for some types of macro photography.

Sold For:

Click here to upgrade your account
Sold Date: 09/30/2007
Channel: Online Auction
Source: eBay
Category: Antiquities
You are bidding on an old horn type seed sower. The horn itself is made from soldered tin and is 24" long, and 1-1/2" in diameter at the large end and 3/4" in diameter at the small end. The horn comes apart in 3 pieces to expose a tin dial that can be turned to regulate the flow of seed. The horn has a few small dings and some surface rust, but is still in pretty good shape. The bag is in good condition as far as old seeders go. It has 6 or 8 small holes (Less than 1/8") and some stains that can be seen in the photos. The unique thing about the bag is the nice graphics that are still in great condition. They read..."Horn...Trade Mark...Seed Sower...Pat'd...Other Pat's Pending...Mfg. at Urbana, Ind., U.S.A.".My father who is an old time retired farmer called these the poor man's seeder as they weren't very expensive and the poorer farmers tended to use them. This one is actually marked $1.89 with some kind of crayon type marker. Just to add some interest we are going to list it with an opening bid of $1.89. Shipping is $8.95 or less. (U.S. only) If the shipping calculates to more than $8.95, I will mark it back to that figure and ship it in a flat rate priority box. I try to offer accurate descriptions, careful packaging, and fast shipping to help you bid with confidence. So, e-mail with questions about anything that I might have missed. If you purchase this item and it isn't as described, please contact me. Thanks for looking. International bidders should e-mail for shipping costs and information.

Hertha Berlin 3-0 Hamburg SV
Hamburg's recent mini resurgence was brought to an abrupt end on Saturday as they crashed to a 3-0 defeat to Hertha Berlin at the OIympiastadion.
A second-half brace from former Hamburg midfielder Anis Ben-Hatira, either side of a John Heitinga goal, earned Jos Luhukay's men the win as the Old Lady put some daylight between themselves and the bottom three.
Hamburg, in contrast, missed the chance to move out of the relegation zone in view of Borussia Dortmund's defeat to Hannover, suffering instead...

Conditions in global financial markets have eased since mid-2012, reflecting improvements in fiscal sustainability and the establishment of mutual support mechanisms in the European Union (EU), even as the global economic recovery remains fragile and susceptible to downside risks. ... See More + South Africa's growth slowed from 3.5 percent in 2011 to 2.5 percent in 2012, reflecting primarily the sluggish external environment and domestic labor strife. Growth declined in 8 of the 10 major subsectors. Researchers, policymakers, and other financial sector stakeholders are becoming more interested in the transformative power of financial inclusion. In South Africa, expanding access to financial services for individuals and small enterprises could reduce the country's persistent income inequality and stimulate growth. South Africa, as Africa's only G20 member and as one of the BRICS, plays an influential global role, and progress in financial inclusion could thus have an important demonstration effect. While formal financial institutions offer an array of financial services, this Update focuses on formal payments, savings, and credit. Financial inclusion is vital because of the role of financial services in helping individuals and firms withstand income shocks and smooth spending. A well-functioning financial system produces and processes information on investment opportunities and allocates capital based on these assessments; monitors individuals' and firms' performance after allocating capital; facilitates the trading, diversification, and management of risk; mobilizes and pools savings; and eases the exchange of goods, services, and financial instruments.

Economic Updates and Modeling 78162 MAY 01, 2013
Section one provides an economic update and assesses the challenges and near-term prospects facing the South African economy. In particular, it looks at the implications for South Africa of the resurgence of uncertainty in global financial markets, the surge in capital flows to safe-haven assets, the continuing Euro zone crisis, and signs of slowdown in some of the large emerging market economies. ... See More + Section two focuses on inequality of opportunity in South Africa. For the first time, using innovative techniques, this section presents an analysis of the interlinked inequality of opportunities for children and for access to employment. Every society has a degree of inequality of outcomes that reflects differences in innate human capabilities, effort, education, experience, and skills. But a recognized goal for public policy is to ensure at least the equality of opportunity for every individual in a country. Many countries have used this new approach to develop targeted policies to promote such equality of opportunity and to monitor and evaluate the success of public programs. See Less -

The longer I stayed here, the more likely I thought I would never be saying goodbye, but I guess it goes to show that one never knows what the Lord has planned for us.
After a few months shy of seven years, my wife, Julie, and I will be going home. We're not returning to South Dakota, where we moved from to Indiana. We will be returning to Oklahoma, where I grew up but have not been for more than 33 years. My mother, stepdad, brother and his family still live there. It had always bothered me I didn't have an opportunity to spend more time with my dad during his final years. I am not going to make that mistake with the rest of my family.
With that being said, I must confess Julie and I feel like we are leaving family here. We both love Northwest Indiana and all the friends we have made. These friendships will endure long after we have physically moved. If I started naming names it would probably require additional pages to the paper as the list is very, very long.
We've had a lot of fun making things happen, and my hat's off to all the wonderful people who have been responsible. My challenge to everyone is to keep the positive going. Many of our local mayors and legislators are terrific people doing very tough jobs, and we need to help them help us. Sometimes that means giving a little for the good of all ... and in the long run that is good for you.
Remember the kids. I cannot wait to come back and enjoy the opening of the Tolleston building in October as the new Boys & Girls Club, but it doesn't need to stop there. Everyone is important, but our youths are our future. We need to give them every chance of being successful.
I want to thank my employees and management team. Everyone always says they have the best employees, but I really do. They have made the tough times with no raises and cutbacks bearable, and I am proud to have had an opportunity to work with them. They also happen to be the best in the business at their jobs. I always looked good, but it was because of them.
I want to thank my church family, including Father Roger Bower and Mother Michelle Walker at St. Andrew's Episcopal Church in Valparaiso. There are many fantastic congregations in Northwest Indiana, but St. Andrews takes the cake. If you have a church then great, but if you are looking for a spiritual home, give St. Andrew's a try. This church congregation and leadership will be one of the biggest drivers in Julie and me possibly coming back someday.
Finally, I want to thank Julie. I can't count the numerous hours and evenings I have spent in meetings and working on projects. She has never once complained. In fact, she has jumped in and donated her own time and money to help the causes that are important to her in Northwest Indiana. And now she is following me to Oklahoma just like she followed me here. And she is doing it supporting me 100 percent even though a large part of her heart will still be here.
I always said we would retire back home. When it is all said and done, retiring "back home" may mean coming back to Northwest Indiana.
Take care, and God bless Northwest Indiana.

54. How to Bleed Tektro Auriga Comp Disc Brakes
Learn how to bleed the air out of Tektro Auriga Comp hydraulic disc brakes.
Learn how to bleed the air out of Tektro Auriga Comp hydraulic disc brakes.
50% of the cost of the bicycle featured in this video was donated by JensonUSA.
In this tutorial we'll learn how to bleed the hydraulic brake system on Tektro Auriga Comp Disc Brakes. You should always bleed the system after shortening or replacing the hose, or if you have opened the system to air at any time. If your brake action feels spongy, bleeding the system will also improve performance.
For this job you will need a 2, 3 and 4mm allen wrench, a 7mm open end wrench, a T15 Torx wrench, a piston holder or 10mm allen wrench in order to keep the pistons in place, a small bag and elastic band, and a clean rag. You will also need a Tektro hydraulic disc brake service kit, which should include a syringe, 2 lengths of plastic tubing, an outlet valve, and a bottle of Tektro hydraulic brake fluid (mineral oil). Make sure to use the specific type of oil for this brand, as using other types could damage your system. A repair stand and clean work space are also highly recommended.
Mount your bike in the repair stand, making sure the wheel axles are parallel with the floor. Now remove your wheel. Remove the disc brake pads and slide a piston block or 10mm allen wrench into the gap to keep the pistons in place.
Remove the rubber cover from the bleed outlet valve on the brake caliper. Attach the smaller tube from your service kit onto the syringe and fill your syringe about halfway with oil. Now firmly insert the syringe and tube onto the bleed outlet valve.
Using your 4mm allen wrench, slightly loosen the brake lever bracket until it rotates on the handlebar. Loosen and move the shifter out of the way if needed. Rotate the brake lever so that the top of the reservoir tank is parallel with the ground.
Using your T15 Torx wrench, loosen and remove the bolt on top of the reservoir tank, and thread the outlet valve into the hole, with the longer plastic tube firmly attached and place the other end into your plastic bag and keep it in place with an elastic band.
Now open the outlet valve on the caliper slightly 1/8 to 1/4 turn. Using the syringe, push and pull the oil back and forth through the system several times until there are no more air bubbles coming out of either end. Now tighten the bleed valve with your 7mm spanner to 4-6Nm.
Remove the hose and reinstall the rubber outlet valve cover. Now remove the outlet valve from the reservoir and reinstall the bolt using your T15 Torx wrench. Tighten this bolt to 2-4Nm.
Use a clean rag to wipe any excess oil off the lever, caliper, and hose. Reinstall your brake pads and front wheel. Depress the brake lever a few times, to ensure the action feels stiff and not spongy.
In our next tutorial we will take a more in-depth look at replacing and adjusting the brake pads on this model.
I'm trying to fix up an older bike. The brake cant on the front tire, right side is way off. It's already destroyed the break pad. I need to figure out how to change the cant, or any new brake pads I install will be destroyed in similar fashion. How exactly do you do this?

Hello today whilst riding my bike i lost concentration (stupid i know) im only am amateur though :/ anyways i hit a wall with the right side of the bike and my right which is the front brake snapped off. The brake still works i was wondering is this repairable or will i have to use black tape and connect the brake handle back on to the handle of thr bike? I only just bought the bike a week ago from halfords its a mountain bike and really cheap. Any help would be appreciated.... Read more >>
Having a problem with my front break line, whenever the I steer the handlebars right too much, the brake line comes out of the mount at the front of the frame. The tension of the wire is not tight enough and i've tried pulling it through more at the brake end to no avail. I don't feel i'm experienced enough with bikes to know what to do and so thought I would ask for some advice on here. If I'm not being specific enough or you need more info. to help me please let me know.
Thanks.... Read more >>
I do lots of home and car repair but never done anything on bikes besides basic cleaning. Found a couple of stolen and abandoned bikes no one has claimed and would like to fix them up to give to kids in need.
This bike had super worn and uneven pads so I replaced them. The rear brake feels loose/little resistance when you pull the handle, although it closes. It doesn't open evenly. As you look at in the pic, the L side stays closed and the R opens a little. Of course the pads I replaced were way super worn on the L a... Read more >>
Hello all.
I replaced the forks on my Trek 4300 for some First Air forks just a couple of days ago. I did the same with my trek 4500 a couple of months ago with no issues.
This time I cannot seem adjust the wheel or the actual disc brake unit correctly. No matter how many times I have tried, the pads still rub ( only lightly but annoying) on the disc. When I am free wheeling there is no noise but when I move the steering erratically, it is much worse. any ideas why this may be? Are the wheel bearing on their way out?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

So today I bought all the necessary equipment to do a 700c conversion on my Falcon Majorca. Unfortunately the Shimano 105 brake calipers that are on the bike aren't long enough so they are to be replaced with a set of Tektro long reach calipers. I really like the 105's. They are responsive and stop the bike well and I'll be sorry to seenthem go......but do they have to?
I have another bike, a 2013 Carrera Vanquish that currently sports Tektro short reach calipers. I guess my question is this; in the grand scheme of things is it worthwhile swapping the 105's onto t... Read more >>
I decided to clean my front disk brake pads by heating them. Instead of sticking them in the oven, I took the medieval approach and threw them into a pile of glowing charcoal. Apparently not a good idea, it took just a few minutes to completely turnoff the pads leaving the bare metal plates.
LOL.. off to my LBS to get replacements.... Read more >>
I have loosened 2 screws on the front brake calliper and since then the front brake no longer works, could someone help me please.... Read more >>
I was given this MTB which has the right support for the rear brakes broken on the frame.
Here is the bike seen from the left side
And here is the details on the "pins" coming out of the frame in the rear, where the rear brakes were mounted (I didn't disassemble them myself, was already like this).
I'm not sure what I can / should do here. I guess to put the same brakes back on, the loose/broken part would need to be re-soldered onto the f... Read more >>
So i have pad brakes and on the back 1 works and one doesn't, the one that doesn't work, when places in position it is automatically pulled towards the wheel causing the pad to rub the wheel as soon as i tighten it, I've tried taking it off an repositioning it, doing my cables looser and tighter an changing it round for one of my old front brake holders but it just does not stay off the wheel.

I bought a Schwinn Deluxe Breeze and tried it out, back pedaled and bike braked quickly (maybe a 1/4 rotation) and firmly. Took it for a ride later and about 3 times I pedaled back 3-4 complete rotations and a time or 2 it never did brake.
When walking up a steep hill I noticed the pedals turning with the chain. A bit later pedals remained stationery when walking it.
This is what I've found when researching: 1960-65. There is a serial #
It has a Bendix automatic red band brake - no kickback

Been discussing this on a different post, but with what has happened I thought I would just make anyone interested aware of a problem. I bought a new carbon fiber road frame and a new 105 groupo. I now find that, due to the chunky nature of the new carbon frames, the standard front brake centerbolt is about 1 1/4" short of making it through the bridge and the rear is about 3/4" short for the rear bridge. With the frame construction, finding longer nuts is not an option.
Does anyone know where I can find a 3 3/8" long (total length)bolt for a shimano brake? I will be calling Shimano t... Read more >>
Hi all,
I have a bit of a noise coming from the rear brake, it makes no noise whatsoever when moving it's only at a stand still when you hold the rear brake on tight and put some tension on to the pedal or if you try to push the bike forwards.
I have had everything apart and cleaned it all, the rotor has been off the wheel and cleaned and refitted everything, made sure there are no loose items.
I do not remember this happening on old alu kona frame, I have a carbon cube frame now.
My next move was going to fit some washers between the callipe... Read more >>
I would like to ask for some help from you.
Brakes: Shimano Hydraulic. Used for 1000 km.
Problem: It started to leak. It seems that it is leaking from the "Pushroad to Brake padal/lever" (view image: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/47/Hydraulic_disc_brake_diagram.gif). I do not know the terms but the metal "cable" that connects the reservoir and the lever and the lever itself is oily.
Brakes lost the power.

Building up my new bike and in preparation (waiting on frame) I have installed my 105 5700 STI levers onto the bars. However, they look funky, looking from the front, the change levers stick outwards a lot, do they 'pull in' when the cables ar hooked up, or is their normal 'rest' position ? The body of the changer is not too far up the bar and the body sticks straight out.... Read more >>

"Michelle [Obama] should run to be Bloomberg's successor. New York Democrats have been casting about for a candidate to run for City Hall when Bloomberg leaves office in 2013. Who better than the First Lady? She already has experience in city government, having worked in Chicago in the early 1990s as an Assistant to the Mayor and an Assistant Commissioner of Housing and Development. Politically, the transition would promise to be smooth: Michelle obviously shares the Mayor's passion for public health issues; and Bloomberg has generally seen eye-to-eye with the Obama White House when it comes to education policy. And one could fairly expect that a Mayor Obama would be an improvement when it comes to matters of poverty and affordable housing. (Plus, more community gardens!)"
- Cameron Abadi, Michelle Obama For Mayor

Is Michelle Obama the most animated First Lady this country has ever had?
"When Jackie Kennedy led a television crew through the White House in February 1962, millions of Americans were riveted to the screen. This Wednesday, when Michelle Obama appears on The Colbert Report, it will be a much less exciting, and more commonplace event. It's starting to seem like the First Lady has been everywhere on our televisions lately, celebrating her "Joining Forces" initiative to help military families or promoting her "Let's Move!" campaign to combat childhood obesity. While it's customary for the spouse of the president to spearhead a feel-good campaign like literacy promotion or urban beautification, few have used their fame as Michelle has, or brought as much pizzazz to their projects. (It's tough to imagine Nancy Reagan teaching Americans how to Dougie.) In an era when celebrity can be the best way to bring attention to a cause, Michelle appears more determined than any previous First Lady to pursue her public advocacy via TV stardom."

Interesting. So apparently, this bug is not universal, which means it may be harder for Apple to reproduce and track down. I'll have to play around with it some more and see if I can identify any conditions that trigger it or make it go away. For now, I just know that it happens every time on my user account.

Getting sick of the trolls on every single Xbox One article though. These nerds need to just #getoverit.
The movie was awesome, they even put stuff in just for the fans! J.J. did not "bastardize" Star Trek, He brought it back from the dead you ungrateful little shits!! If it wasn't for Abrams no one would be talking about Star Trek and there would be no new movies!!
Just enjoy something for once instead of trying so damn hard to rip it apart!

text: I am cleaning out old (saved) messages in my email folders and ran across this one. After reading and smiling over it, I decided I should really share it. The poster had modified the original and stripped out the author's name so I'm afraid it is just by "Anonymous". - Hrothny -----Original Message----- "How many List members does it take to change a light bulb?" One to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been changed. Fourteen to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs, and how the light bulb could have been changed differently. Seven to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs. Seven more to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs. Five to flame the spell checkers. Three to correct spelling/grammar flames. Six to argue over whether it's "light bulb" or "lightbulb." Another six to condemn those six as stupid. Fifteen to claim experience in the lighting industry and give the correct spelling. Nineteen to post that the Discussion Group is not about light bulbs, and to please take this discussion to a light bulb (or lightbulb) forum. One to point out that having light is a universal and historical concern, and to claim that Medieval people asked God to give them light, during the hours of darkness. One to suggest that there is a Biblical quote, that goes something such as "Illuminum da nobis, Domine." One to correct the previous poster, and point out that the correct reference is to the Third Collect, at Evening Prayer, in the Latin edition, of the 1662 "Book of Common Prayer": "Illumina, quæsumus Domine Deus, tenebras nostras : et totius hujus noctis insidias tu a nobis repelle propitius. Propter unicum Filium tuum, Salvatorem nostrum, Jesum Christum. _Amen._" ;) Three, from the List Moderator, to ask that the thread be terminated. Eleven to defend the posting to the group saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant to this group. Thirty six to debate which method of changing light bulbs is superior, where to buy the best light bulbs, what brand of light bulbs work best for this technique and what brands are faulty. One more from the List Moderator, in which he borders on apoplexy, over the out of control thread. Seven to post URLs where one can see examples of different light bulbs. Four to post that the URLs were posted incorrectly and then post the corrected URL. Thirteen to quote them in their entirety including all headers and signatures, and merely add, "Me too." Five to post to the group that they will no longer post because they cannot handle the light bulb controversy. Four to say "Didn't we go through this already a short time ago?" Five to post a message giving the URL of the List's Archives, and suggesting that one could do a search of the archives, for prior postings about light bulbs. Three to tell a funny story about their cat and a light bulb. One group lurker to respond to the original posting 6 months from now with something unrelated they found at _snopes.com_, and START IT ALL OVER AGAIN!!!!!

Caribbean heads of government gathered in St Vincent last week to discuss reparations from Europe for the enduring legacy of slavery. Professor Hilary Beckles, a Barbadian historian who chairs a reparations taskforce for these governments, wants to open talks with former slave-trading nations including the UK, France, Spain, Portugal and the Netherlands.
The Oscar-winning 12 Years a Slave has opened up new conversations across the region, and what was once considered an unrealistic and unachievable demand now seems imaginable.
Campaigners point to the continuing socio-economic problems that have their roots in the colonial era. They argue that the present-day underdevelopment of the Caribbean is a direct and lasting legacy of the slavery trade, and descendants of enslaved Africans should be compensated for present-day injustices, rather than historical suffering. That the legal case will be difficult to establish is in no doubt; the moral case, however, is less easy to dismiss – especially when the nations of the former colonisers owe their present prosperity to, and are still benefiting from wealth accumulated from the slave trade and slavery. Though whites in the Caribbean represent a minority, they own most of the wealth.
Most of the largest businesses are owned by families who amassed huge fortunes from plantation slavery and, when slavery was abolished, from the compensation paid to them by the British government for the loss of their human property.
By contrast, not a single enslaved man, woman or child received even a penny for the backbreaking toil they endured almost every day of their lives, or for the loss of mothers and fathers, children, brothers and sisters caused by the callous separation of families. There was no compensation for the pernicious brutality exacted against them, or for the violent sexual assaults on enslaved women.
Even today, international trade agreements lock the region into disadvantageous western-imposed tariffs that stifle economic growth. Yet many people across the region harbour ambivalence and antipathy to the idea of reparations. Doing my own mini-research, I am struck by how many reject reparations through what I interpret as a deep sense of shame. It seems people are still coming to terms with a history of enslavement, and many would rather the topic wasn't discussed.
I am reminded of this whenever I visit any of the Jacobean and Georgian-era great houses that are dotted around Barbados. Their foundations were literally built on slavery. Tour guides will wax lyrical about the gracious lifestyles led by the planter families who lived in them. But there is rarely any mention of the armies of enslaved peoples whose forced labour made such living possible, and who are all too often erased from these histories. It is as if islanders attach greater shame to being the descendants of enslaved peoples than the owners of these houses attach to having been the holders of human property.
For me, as a descendant of African forebears stolen from their homelands and forcibly transported to Barbados, the issue of reparations is deeply personal. I am semi-resigned to the fact I will probably never know the African family names of my fore-parents. The family names I carry (Forde on my father's side and Griffiths on my mother's) derive not from any African ancestors, but were almost certainly imposed by a now-anonymous slaveholder.
Last week, I met a white American tourist. She revealed that she was descended from a prominent 17th-century Barbadian planter, though she knew very little of him beyond his name and the parish in which he had owned hundreds of acres and enslaved peoples. We shared an ironic laugh afterwards that I could lay out for her her own genealogy stretching back to the 17th century, yet knowledge of my own family tree begins and ends in the post-slavery era of the 1930s.

Spoilers for this week's episode of TNA Impact below:
Hmm, no Madison, MBC, Taylor, or Velvet and Lacey? Hope there will be more details.
should be a good match. still nothing announced for the ppv, though.. :(
Sarita VS Angela sounds good, I'm sure there's more to come
Actually looking forward to the first ever match between the 2.
Ever since Angelinas return, this is the match I wanted to see.
I don't want to get my hopes up, but this does sound like a potentially really good match. Hopefully they had a decent amount of time.
Just a good wrestling match between two good wrestlers nice to see it odds are there might be something filmed backstage
See, all those months of me rabbiting on about Sarita should be turned heel have paid off, ever since she's had way more screen time. I'm really glad because although it's not putting her on TBP's level right now, it puts her as a good secondary (if you count TBP as a unit) heel, though things will no doubt change as soon as Tara takes off the helmet. Shame that Daffney's been leap frogged though and not to mention Rosie who just seems to have jump rope like cameos. Taylor's also benefitting quite a lot too, she's getting some character behind her if nothing else.
Hopefully it was given enough time for them to put on a good match. Hope there is more to come.
Sounds like a great match and hope the feud doesn't get forgotten like TNA does from time to time for a week or two.
apparently, next week is an ecw-themed impact.. i wonder if any vixens will appear at tomorrow's tapings ;)
well, hopefully we get a knockout match regardless!
Potentially a good match. Hope TNA really push Sarita as she is possibly the best all round KO. Suspect this was designed to promote Angelina as the next KO champ.
but no Bike when that line was devloping? Also no Madison? Prewsumably Madison waill appear in some guise either backstage in this taping or in tonight's to set up the title match.
the august 12th, show is all to the ECW wrestlers, so hopefully, we will be seeing some ECW vixens, and hopefully at Hardcore JUstice and Next week impact
there is no reason why Beulah shouldnt appear, with her been married to Tommy
unless, she wants her last world wide wrestling apperance to be with WWE
I bet the match was similar to anglina love vs daffney from few weeks ago.
It just crossed my mind that this might be a short, squash match. That better not happen…

ADA Artist Management & Representation
Scott Piper
"With a vocal register that the program describes as spinto tenor — named for the Italian word for "pushed" — Piper delivers exaltant crescendoes that sound effortless, especially in the opera's famous, murderous finale, "No, pagliaccio, non son". " (Opera Tampa -Cavalleria/Pagliacci)
Spinto tenor Scott Piper's rich, resonant voice and charismatic stage presence are quickly establishing him as a sought after interpreter of opera's romantic leading men, in roles such roles as the Cavaradossi in Tosca, Don José in Bizet's Carmen, Pinkerton in Puccini's Madama Butterfly and Turiddu in Cavalleria Rusticana. The Salt Lake Tribune wrote of his Utah Opera performance "His voice was rich and natural, with baritone heft in the lower range; his heart-tugging third-act aria, "E lucevan le stelle," was one of the evening's highlights." Recently transitioning into spinto repertoire, Scott sang Calaf in Turandot for Pensacola Opera and Minnesota Opera, Manrico in Il Trovatore with Utah Opera, and Luigi in Il Tabarro with Opera Köln. Engagements for the 2013-2014 season include Cavaradossi in Tosca with Madison Opera and Austin Lyric Opera, as well as his return to Opera Köln to cover Verdi's Otello. Future seasons will see his debut in Wiesbaden as Pollione in Norma and reappearance in Köln as Otello.
Recently, Scott made his role debut as Turiddu with the New Israeli Opera, added Canio for a Cavalleria – Pagliacci double bill with Opera Tampa, and debuted Manrico in Verdi's Il trovatore with Opera Roanoke, and with Sarasota Opera Anatol in Barber's Vanessa and returned to his signature roles; Rodolfo in La bohème with Angers-Nantes Opera in France, Don Jose in Carmen with Kentucky Opera and Nashville Opera; and Edgardo in Lucia di Lammermoor with Seattle Opera.
During the 2009-2010 season, he was seen as Edgardo in Lucia di Lammermoor with Tulsa Opera, and Cleveland Opera, and the title role in Faust with The New Israeli Opera and Dayton Opera. Engagements for 2008-2009 included Pinkerton in Madama Butterfly with both Florentine Opera and the Utah Opera, the Duke in Rigoletto in Dublin Ireland, and Roldofo in La bohème and Don José in Carmen with New Israeli Opera. Engagements for 2007-2008 saw Mr. Piper as Don José in Carmen once again with New York City Opera as well as with Intermountain Opera, returning to Jacksonville Symphony for Alfredo in La traviata, singing Cavaradossi for Utah Opera's Tosca, and making his debut with Florentine Opera as Tebaldo in I Capuleti e i Montecchi. Highlights of the 2006-2007 included his debuts with Seattle Opera and Opera Birmingham as Rodolfo in La bohème, Jose in Carmen with New York City Opera, Tulsa Opera, and Des Moines Metro Opera, and Beethoven's Ninth Symphony with Eugene Symphony. Other recent engagements include a return to Minnesota Opera in the North American Premiere of Mercadante's Orazi & Curiazi, Des Grieux in Manon Lescaut for the Intermountain Opera Association, and his Glimmerglass Opera debut as Steva in Jenůfa.
Mr. Piper's artistry has been heard throughout the Americas, Europe and Asia. He has recently appeared with Houston Grand Opera, the International Music Festival of Macau, Vancouver Opera (British Columbia), Compañia Lírica Nacional de Costa Rica, the New Peoples Theater of Moscow (Russia), Minnesota Opera, Opera Pacific, Lyric Opera of Kansas City, the Jacksonville Symphony Orchestra, Dayton Opera, Madison Opera, Michigan Opera Theater, and New York City Opera. In Italy he has appeared in Rome, Catanzaro, Modena, Ravenna, and at Teatro di Verdi in Busseto. He also appears as Alfredo in the DVD of Franco Zeffirelli's production of La traviata with Stefania Bonfadell and Renato Bruson, conducted by Placido Domingo.

Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
Information and Resources
Old Kidney Machines Caused Deaths
April 25, 2000 -- It started with bloodshot eyes and headache. It ended with blindness, deafness, and death. The bizarre and tragic 1996 event had never happened before and -- according to a government report published in the April 26 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association -- likely never will happen again.
The seven patients hooked up to artificial kidney machines in a Huntsville, Ala., hospital didn't know anything was wrong when their machines began beeping. The alarms warned that the membranes filtering impurities out of their blood might be leaking. It's not unusual for these sensitive devices to sound a false alarm, and that's what the attendants thought -- until six of the machines had signaled a problem. All seven patients had their filters changed, including one who had been hooked up for only five minutes. But all came down with symptoms.
Within 48 hours, the five women and two men developed terrible headaches, dizziness, and loss of hearing and sight. Although three of the patients got much better within a month, five of them died over the next 13 months. Two died within five days of the event.
What went wrong? The more than 11-year-old filters used in the kidney machines had an unusual chemical breakdown, according to an extensive investigation by the FDA and the CDC. This breakdown could only have happened in very old filters (known as dialyzers) that were improperly manufactured, says lead investigator Joseph C. Hutter, PhD. Hutter is an FDA chemical engineer.
Apparently, many factors must come into play for something like this to happen. "You have to have a manufacturing upset when you are making these things -- plus a long time in storage," Hutter tells WebMD. "We can reproduce that event in the lab. ? With a normal dialyzer, if it was fabricated right, nothing will happen to it. ? You have to have acidic exposure and then exposure to heat. And there is still something else going on because it didn't happen every time [the experiment was performed]. There must have been some impurity or something else we can't identify."
All of the suspect kidney filters were thrown out and burned before CDC investigator Matthew J. Kuehnert, MD, arrived on the scene. However, by finding and then testing many old dialyzers of many different types, the investigators were able to determine that under certain conditions, old filters sometimes gave off toxic chemicals. These toxic chemicals caused eye problems in laboratory animals that were very much like the symptoms seen in the seven patients.
"This was a very unusual event that hasn't been reported before or since," Kuehnert, co-author of the report, tells WebMD. "This is a unique syndrome constellation of very severe symptoms that resulted in permanent disability in many of these patients due to a substance from aged dialyzers. FDA and CDC have issued recommendations to prevent this sort of unusual event from happening again, and that includes rotating dialyzer stock and having dates on them. For the future, it is important to have surveillance in place so if events occur or if there is a cluster of events, that is picked up."

The Toronto Maple Leafs and Buffalo Sabres meet up tonight in a battle of historically bad teams. Yeah, I'm not kidding about that "historically bad" part:
Just because it's a Sabres/Leafs gameday, I went ahead and updated our favorite graph. pic.twitter.com/7VAbh0Rscd
— Travis Yost (@TravisHeHateMe) January 15, 2014
That graph shows us that the Leafs are now the worst shot attempt-differential team in the league, behind even the Sabres. They're even worse than the 2007 Atlanta Thrashers; a team that's notorious for being the worst corsi team in history.
So yeah, the Leafs won a game against the Boston Bruins last night, which is a small miracle. But this team still has some pretty serious issues, and those will need to be corrected somehow if they plan on making the playoffs. The Sabres made a few changes from their lineup from last night's 4-3 loss to the Philadelphia Flyers:
Nolan says Myers in for Sulzer. Stafford and Scott for Omark and Foligno. 82 was banged up last night.
— Mike Harrington (@BNHarrington) January 15, 2014
I'm not sure about you, but I for one welcome the addition of John Scott to the Sabres' lineup.
James Reimer is in net for the pre-game warmup, and he'll get the start. He was ailing from the flu last night, but appears to be well enough to go tonight. It's only his third start since December 21. Reimer has a .824 save percentage in his last three games.
Colton Orr is back in the lineup and Frazer McLaren is out. Phil Kessel was back skating on the top line with Tyler Bozak and James van Riemsdyk during line rushes. For all the latest, stay connected with the Twitter machine:

The Lincoln County Process is one of Sam's many projects, featuring Jen Sygit (vocals, guitar, banjo), Geoff Lewis (Drums, Cajon), and Joe VanAcker (Upright and Electric Bass). They combine original songs from Sam and Jen, along with covers from some of their favorite artists including Tom Waits, Bob Dylan, Brandi Carlile, and in this video they play "Rolling On" by Mark Knopfler & Emmylou Harris, followed by a brand new song by Sam Corbin at the end of the video.

Back in May of 2013, the band played the annual Buses By The Beach festival in West Michigan and with the help of Will Piaz and a couple of microphones hoisted up in the middle of the audience, the set was captured and given to us to give away to the fans!

Sam Corbin & Jen Sygit - Live @ the Red House
On October 13th, 2012, Sam and Jen performed and recorded a house concert in Grand Haven, MI hosted by Jim, Marianne, and Lexi Fischer. After 7 years of playing music together, they have finally released their first official duo album, "Live @ the Red House". And even better, it's being released as a FREE online download as a gift to their fans.
As of right now, there are two ways to stream and download this album.
1. Click the "Live @ the Redhouse" link at the top of the page to stream or download the album from this website. Once on the page, right click on the download links to download the tracks, or just click on the links to stream.
2. Go to Archive.org to download or stream. For some reason Archive.org seems to have uploaded at a slightly better quality and sounds better to my ears, but I'm having trouble deciding. I might be going crazy. Also through this site, you can download the entire concert (all the separate tracks are included in one folder), or just individual tracks at a time as well. To download the entire concert at once, click on the vbr zip link on the left side of the page. To get to our page at Archive.org, click on the link below.
New Album This Summer 2012! (or maybe a little later, sorry)
Well, as you probably have noticed, it's not done yet, and unfortunately it's not even close. I've written a nice handful of new songs for this project, and thought they were ready to record and release. I spent a lot of time in the studio so far, and I'm realizing that the songs need some rewriting. With the help of Billy Harrington, Aaron Allen, and a number of other friends, we've gone back to the drawing board and hope to get back into the studio in the near future. I'll let everyone know when we have an idea of when this project might get released. I'm sorry for the delay, but just want the songs to be as good as they can be before releasing an album.
Recording has officially begun for the new EP! I'm really excited to finally get moving on this project, and with the help of Billy Harrington (drummer extraordinaire and producer) we're shooting for a summer release. This EP is going to be different than anything I've ever done, with a fully Electrified Roots/Blues feel. Stay tuned to the website for some sneak peaks, and video footage!
