One thing that would make it better is the ability to provide specific latitude and longitude because Google doesn't always place the stores where they really are.
If you are looking for a time saving, minimal fuss component, this qualifies. Buy it.

Region: St. Louis - Forest Park
Pirates! (or, Gilbert and Sullivan Plunder'd) is a charming tale of a lad indentured to a ship of rogues due to an inconvenient birthday. Frederic has the unfortunate leap-year birthday and thus remains in the accidental custody of said swashbucklers. His dear nursemaid, Ruth, has convinced him that she is the utmost picture of beauty (although in actuality Ruth is an old maid and has, you know, lived among pirates for some time -- an environment that doesn't leave room for personal hygiene, let alone presentation). Finally, Frederic comes of age and is freed from his sailing family of thieves. Upon making his land debut, he sees his first true love -- a young lass by the name of Mabel. It's all history, as they say, after that. Pirates! premieres tonight at 8:15 p.m. at the Muny in Forest Park. Tickets range from $10 to $70 (with free seats opening at 7 p.m. every night) and are available by phone at 314-534-1111, through www.metrotix.com or at the box office.

Beautiful area, beautiful house, great food. Tom was an incredibly friendly and welcoming host. We had no complaints at all!

Nice rooms - comfy bed, fireplace, spacious bath in Our Garden Room. Great breakfast - food and dining areas inviting and sunny. Host Tom was amiable and a great host. Croton-on-Hudson was hilly with views of the river at every twist in the road.

After a glowing recommendation from a friend, I booked a Labor Day weekend here. Beautiful, historical home. Tom was a wonderful host, providing an excellent breakfast and friendly start to each day. Also, put together a beautiful bouquet and yummy chocolate dipped strawberries as a special request, and for a reasonable added charge. Thanks, Tom!

We enjoyed our stay in this very friendly and relaxing place. We will definitely return again.

We stayed for 5 nights and enjoyed two separate rooms during this period. The Turret room is quite spacious and has a dedicated bathroom directly across the hall. When we booked I wasn't sure how well this aspect would suit us but it proved to be fine and not much different had te bathroom been attached to the room. We also had one night in the Garden room which has a bathroom attached. It is a bit smaller than the Turret, but more than adequate for our needs. Tom is the charming owner and cooks excellent breakfasts each morning. There is also the usual cereal and cold additions. Nothing was too much trouble for Tom and he was exceptionally helpful with any special requests, help in selecting some good local restaurants and so on. If we find ourselves back in NY in the future we would not hesitate to book back in here-it was a home away from home
3.4 on September 18, 2013
The food was great, and the room was very nice. But on our last morning, we got rushed out by the host, and told we needed to be out the door NLT 11am. It was a somewhat surreal and rude experience. We weren't exactly straggling, but the host came into breakfast and I felt like he was tapping his watch and telling us we needed to be out by 11 and to get a move on.

Cannot recommend enough...only issue was that the "town" was pretty lame, otherwise, the b&b itself rocks! They think of everything and are there to help with everything. The room was clean and perfect. The atmosphere in the spacey home was sweet and we felt so comfortable. And the nearby restaurants rocked as well.

Never before published, this is a transcription by Francis Dickinson Ackerly, of a small, pocket-sized
journal/diary kept by a Revolutionary War Soldier. The diarist, now identified as Moses Sleeper of Newburyport, wrote the entries
written in pencil from June 10, 1775 to September 7, 1776. It begins with the Siege of Boston and ends with the Battle of Long Island
and Washington's retreat from New York City.
The journal/diary in the Longfellow House archives and a closeup of the soldier's entry for July
3, 1775.
Introduction: Who Wrote the Soldier's Diary? (pdf) by Frances Dickinson Ackerly.
Francis Ackerly, a member of the Friends, transcribed the
journal/diary. The manuscript was missing the first page on which its owner had presumably written his name. Following clues in the
diary, she was able to determine the anonymous diary's author.
Journal (Diary) Sharing Among Revolutionary War Soldiers (pdf) by Robert Cameron Mitchell.
Note: Research on journal sharing is ongoing and the essay is currently unavailable.
Significant portions of Moses Sleeper's journal overlap word for word with daily entries in two other contemporary soldier's journals.
The phenomenon of diary sharing was a not unusual practice at that time. Although much is common across the journals kept by Moses Sleeper,
Caleb Haskell and Paul Lunt; the material that is not common typically reflects the journalist's personal experience of an event.

Situated on the slopes of Sete Cidade's crater, the Casas Novas in a rural estate enjoy a magnificent panoramic view of the Atlantic Ocean
Situated on the slopes of Sete Cidades crater, this 100 year old rural estate has an excellent view of the Atlantic Ocean and the village of Mosteiros. It is this privileged location in a area of farming and cow pastures that offers guests a special peace and quiet, interrupted only by the distant sounds of cow bells and local farmers. Sea-lovers encounter a one-of -a-kind experience down in Mosteiros at the Praia de Areia (Sand Beach) and at the natural swimming pools hidden along the volcanic coastline. We suggest exploring the sea bottom next to the islets. In the village you can find three restaurants offering fresh fish, and ...a genuine pizzeria! Still other outings such as the places of Ferraria and Sete Cidades, offer more "adventures" for visitors. This estate is a small paradise 800 m from the village of Mosteiros, on the island of São Miguel. Six beautiful cottages are set within a spacious tree-shaded garden, each one completely private with its own barbecue, tables and lounge chairs. The sea view and the sunset are unforgettable. Upon arriving, guests will find everything they need for quick meals - fruits, jams, cheese. eggs, bread, milk, etc.. Local shops of Mosteiros supply all that is necessary for everyday needs. The fishing port of Mosteiros guarantees a varied supply of fresh fish. Cottages are tastefully decorated with traditional, rustic collections from the island of São Miguel and come well equipped to guarantee guests comfort. A laundry room with washing machine and iron/ironing board is available for guests (self-service).Casas Novas (New Houses) (T2 type) - dettached cottage with 2 bedrooms, equipped kitchen, 1 bathroom and an ample living room with fireplace. Outside, there is a large private garden with magnificent sea views. Sleeps up to 4 persons.Discount price for 2 persons occupancy on request.This part of the island , situated within a vast network of rural roads and paths, is particularly favourable for horseback riding. From here, it is possible to ride up the slopes and hills of the Sete Cidades crater, continue on through the ridges, and finally , on down to the lake. Available horses range from easy riders for the less experienced riders, to Lusitano pure-breeds for the more discerning horseman. All rides are guided (guests who wish to ride should sign a responsibility waiver contract).AzoresThe Azores are a natural haven of nine islands, perfect for anyone who loves sport and the open air.You'll definitely want to go swimming in the Azores, given the warm waters off the coastline. And there are natural swimming pools inland too, formed by volcanic action.Boat trips, by motor or sail, are another attraction, with surfing, windsurfing and bodyboarding also available, with equipment for hire locally.The islands, with their volcanic cones and humidity, plus their craters and lakes, possess some unique vegetation, creating a natural beauty you'll want to explore. These are excellent surroundings for walking, with paths available at all levels of difficulty. For the more ambitious, take a guide to ensure you get the best out of this spectacular countryside.In São Miguel or Terceira, horse riding also provides a pleasant way of exploring the islands.However, perhaps the best way to view the unique landscapes, with their streams, waterfalls and green valleys surrounded by the sea, is to take to the skies with a plane tour. This will make your trip to the Azores unforgettable.
The Cottage is in a very quiet area. It has a garden, a patio area, sea views, panoramic views, a barbeque. If you are driving there is private parking.

LIBYA UPDATE – AT 11:58 P.M. ET: There is a haze over news from Libya. We know there is fighting going on, we know there is diplomatic activity, but we're not sure of exactly what is happening or whether positions taken by various nations are shifting.
Within Libya there is news of a provisional council being established in rebel-held areas. The council is the first political coming together of dissident elements. But we're not sure how much strength it has, exactly whom it represents, or whether the Libyan people accept it.
Outside Libya, Venezuelan buffoon-in-chief Hugo Chavez attempted to intervene to help his friend Qaddafi by offering to set up negotiations between the Libyan dictator and the opposition, but the opposition quickly, and correctly, rejected the idea.
For Americans, the key question is what will Obama do. Secretaries Gates and Clinton have made it clear that we are very reluctant to intervene militarily, especially since, as Clinton points out, we aren't exactly sure who the opposition is. Obama certainly doesn't want to run for office next year having pulled a Jimmah Carter, and pushed one dictator out, as Carter did in Iran, simply to find a worse one take his place.
But the president seems to be moving closer to considering some military role, if Libya grows into a humanitarian disaster. From WaPo:
COMMENT: Pretty good words from Obama, but essentially toothless right now. The great Fouad Ajami of Johns Hopkins was on CNN tonight, and he quoted a line from Lyndon Johnson: "Don't tell a man to go to hell unless you're prepared to send him there." Johnson was rewriting the great line, from Emerson, that if you strike at the king, you must kill him.
American policy is evolving. It is reactive right now, reacting to developments in Libya itself. This whole situation can be over in days, but can stretch to weeks or even months.

WISCONSIN MOVES SYMBOLICALLY ON ABSENTEE DEM SENATORS – AT 7:37 P.M. ET: The Wisconsin state senate is trying to pressure Democratic senators to return. Some 14 of them fled to Illinois and other foreign countries to prevent the Wisconsin senate from voting on Governor Scott Parker's bill reining in the power of public-employee unions:
COMMENT: It may be only symbolic, but it does put pressure on the escapees. They can't sneak back into Wisconsin safely to visit their homes or their girl friends.
The public-employee unions are apparently counting on public sympathy to force the governor to back down. And there is sympathy, measured in the polls, for unions to retain the right of collective bargaining. But polls also show that the public wants real concessions and budget cutting.
There is speculation that Walker will be forced to back down. I doubt that. He was very firm when he was Milwaukee county executive. He tends to be a fighter. Now he's fighting not only Wisconsin unions, but their allies from all over the country.

FIGHT FIERCELY HARVARD – AT 7:16 P.M. ET: Harvard University is welcoming ROTC back to campus, in a distinct victory for rationality and maturity, two traits not always in great supply on today's campuses. From AP:
COMMENT: Drew Faust has turned out to be a solid president of Harvard. She kept her word on ROTC, which is commendable.
The battle is far from won. There is still fierce resistance to ROTC at some schools, especially Columbia, where Lenin's children, including some on the faculty, regularly crawl out of their bunkers to confront the American militaristic, imperialist machine and its corporate lapdogs. One faculty group recently issued a brave statement in favor of ROTC, whereas another issued one opposing it. The opponent list was heavy with representatives of the anthropology department, known for its belief that Stalin was a capitalist stooge, and Middle East studies, known for its swell parties marking Muammar al-Qaddafi's birthday.
Among the arguments the Columbia faculty opponents raised was their concern that ROTC still discriminated...on the basis of age and physical disability. I am not kidding. They actually argued that. Apparently, these apparatchiks won't be happy until ROTC accepts 55-year-old cadets with 20/800 vision who dream of being snipers.
Columbia will make a decision soon. I think they should vote on May Day, as the oppponents will be giddy with proletarian joy.

WHERE OBAMA STANDS – AT 9:54 A.M. ET: A new poll shows the president losing the bounce he received late last year, but don't underestimate him. From The Politico:
By comparison, Rasmussen reports today that 45% of Americans approve of the president's performance, while 54% disapprove. Rasmussen has generally registered higher disapproval ratings for Obama than other polls.
COMMENT: While these numbers are not great for the president, they aren't all that bad. The president's 2012 situation is far from desperate. If the GOP nominates a terrific candidate in that year, he (or she) could give Obama quite a difficult time. But if the Republicans nominate a so-so candidate, it shouln't be too difficult for Obama, a much better candidate than he is a president, to pull up to 50%, and a narrow victory.
The Republicans need some old-fashioned excitement. We have argued here before that they should look behind the obvious candidates, something the party has, historically, been reluctant to do. Traditionally, Republicans nominate the guy who's next in line, living or dead.

LIBYA TODAY – AT 9:02 A.M. ET: The revolution in Libya is taking on the characteristics of a civil war, rather than a brief rebellion, which was the Egyptian model. And the dictator is proving difficult to dislodge. Western countries face painful decisions, with no guaranteed outcomes, if the fighting goes on in the oil-rich country. From Fox:
COMMENT: The administration, speaking especially through Defense Secretary Bob Gates, is making it plain that it doesn't want to get dragged into another conflict.
We are stuck, literally, between the proverbial rock and the hard place. If we intervene militarily, we can appear to be Western imperialists trying to shape a new Libya to our own liking. Al Qaeda's propagandists could have a field day, and our side can still lose.
On the other hand, if we fail to act, and Qaddafi remains in power, we will come off as weak and unprincipled, unconcerned about the people of the Arab world as long as the oil flows.
One problem the administration has is actually identifying who the opposition is, not only in Libya, but in much more important Egypt. There are already some very disturbing signs that the Muslim Brotherhood is starting to assert itself in Egypt, demanding, for example, the resignation of clerics it does not support.
There are disturbances in other Arab countries, like Bahrain, Jordan, and Yemen. There are also continued, but small, disturbances in Iran. But – and I think this is fascinating – the governments of those countries have thus far not been toppled. It is quite possible that, over the weeks ahead, we will wind up with exactly the same autocrats in power as we had a month ago, with only the governments of Tunisia and Egypt changing hands, and with uncertain results in those two countries.
Please recall that there was a revolt against Soviet rule in Hungary in 1956, and in Czechoslovakia in 1968, surrounded by much hoopla and talk of freedom, but with no change in the ruling structure. Revolutions are not easy, especially when the government starts shooting back.

BETTER JOB PROSPECTS? – AT 8:48 A.M. ET: From Bloomberg:
COMMENT: Good news for the economy, and also for Barack Obama, as we move into the 2012 election cycle. If unemployment starts to drop seriously, it will be a powerful boost for his reelection chances.
However, these figures are far from spectacular, and we would have to examine the trend over months. Also, the information out today doesn't tell us what kind of jobs are being created, and at what level. Ronald Reagan's classic question, "Are you better off today than you were four years ago?" still applies. Many workers may be taking jobs at incomes below what they'd received before, which is not economic progress.
The jury is still out. But look to the mainstream media to spin economic news as favorably as they can, the better to help Obama cling to office.

TERROR SUSPECT IN GERMANY IDENTIFIED – AT 8:36 A.M. ET: Suspicions that the gunman who allegedly killed two American G.I.'s in Germany yesterday appear to be confirmed. From CNN:
COMMENT: One of the greatest fears of American counterterrorism experts is the lone wolf attack launched by a well-armed individual who operates essentially on his own, although his views have been shaped by radical Islam. One major purpose of terrorism is to terrorize, and, while an individual might not do massive damage with a personal attack, he (or she) could terrorize a city or even the nation. Think of the impact on the air system if a lone wolf brought down an airliner over an American city.
First things first: Let's see if the Obama administration, at its highest levels, will acknowledge the ideology behind the attack in Germany, or will pull another Fort Hood – just a disturbed guy with no beliefs.

REOPEN PAN AM 103 CASE? – AT 10:30 P.M. ET: Recent comments by defecting Libyan officials about the bombing of PanAm 103 in 1988 have led to some initial actions by the U.S. Government. From Fox:
COMMENT: I've always believed that the PanAm 103 case was covered, right from the start, by a layer of sleaze. The attack occurred just days before Ronald Reagan left office. The new president, George H.W. Bush, who, unlike his son, saw the Mideast primarily as a place to get oil profits, never showed much interest in the terrorist attack. Even relatives of the victims who'd met with Bush described him as very cold.
There seemed to be a great sigh of relief from various political and commercial establishments when Scotland convicted one Libyan sucker for the entire operation. But common sense tells us he didn't go out and do it as a lark, or to get extra credit in terrorism class. Something that momentous – the downing of an American-flagged airliner – had to have Qaddafi's approval. We and the British just looked the other way. A barrel of oil can buy a lot of indifference. A hundred barrels can buy a birthday party for Qaddafi.
We welcome the new attention to the case, but I doubt if we'll ever have Qaddafi in custody. I take him at his word that he'll go down fighting.

MORE CHRISTIE – AT 9:33 P.M. ET: There is more yapping about Chris Christie as a possible presidential candidate. He keeps denying he's in, or will get in...but he keeps talking about it, and that feeds the yapping. From NBC News:
WHOOPS! That's about a 95% on the amateur meter. You never say you're not ready. It's the kind of quote that gets hung around your neck if you wind up with the nomination. From this point forward, Christie must be very careful about not saying anything that can be used against him. He has to be read his political Miranda rights.
That having been said, there is a gut feeling in the Republican Party that the usual bench of candidates doesn't contain anyone sufficiently juicy to take on Obama. I have doubts about Christie's boxing-ring manner, but the man is alive and exciting, and he's doing a great job. He has also been discussing the presidency more and more, and has spoken out on national issues.
Maybe he will reassess his readiness, and explain that what he really meant was that he wasn't ready to run because he didn't have enough suits, or charged batteries for his laptop. This will be a fascinating story if none of the other candidates catches fire.

TWO GI's MURDERED IN GERMANY – AT 8:45 P.M. ET: Two American soldiers, about to be assigned to war zones, were shot to death by a presumed terrorist in Germany today. From ABC News:
COMMENT: ABC News deserves praise for putting the gunman's rant – "Allahu Akbar" – right in the first paragraph. The New York Times buried it deep in their story. CNN didn't include it at all. The Washington Post, shockingly, hasn't run the story on its website.
Now let us see if we have another Fort Hood moment. You'll recall that after the Fort Hood massacre in 2009, even our own Defense Department jumped through hoops to avoid dealing with the shooter's Islamist ideology. The chief of staff of the Army, who should have been replaced, worried out loud that the incident might increase ill feeling toward Muslim troops. Political correctness won the moment. Well, two more families are being notified today about the deaths of loved ones at the hands of what clearly appears to be an ideology-inspired terrorist. How much truth do you think we'll get?

WAKE-UP CALL...ABOUT THE 5,000th – AT 9:51 A.M. ET: Another gross airline screening failure shows just how close we are to a potential disaster. From the New York Post:
COMMENT: I just don't know how any agency can explain this away. Boxcutters are easily detected by screening equipment. And it wasn't just one person who messed up. It was at least three.
There have been serious questions raised about the competence of the people hired by TSA. These are low-paying jobs, and tediously boring as well. Terrorists are constantly testing the system, and trying to develop new ways to beat it. Here, a guy wasn't even trying, had obvious boxcutters, and zipped right through.
We've had several very close calls in recent years – the Christmas airline bomber, the Times Square bomber, and, no doubt, others we haven't heard about. This incident is not reassuring.

COMBAT IN OHIO – AT 9:24 A.M. ET: With so much attention on the convulsions in Wisconsin, centered in Lenin-loving Madison, we've been ignoring the public-union fight in Ohio. No state is more important in presidential elections than the swing state of Ohio, and newly elected Governor John Kasich is already a national figure. Combat is near, as the Washington Post points out:
Michigan and California are political poster children for liberal states. California is in particularly bad shape. If Kasich can rescue Ohio, count him as national contender. If he can't, it's back to Fox News as a regular commentator.

COMBAT IN LIBYA – AT 8:37 A.M. ET: The conflict in Libya is taking on a distinct international angle, as it becomes clear that intervention may be the only course that will prevent a massive bloodbath and the suppression of the revolt. From WaPo:
We are on the spot, whether we want to be or not. If we act militarily, there are certainly risks. But if we fail to act, and Gaddafi wins, it will have a devastating impact on our international influence, and may well mean the end for the freedom revolutions going on throughout the Middle East.
The Washington Post's Jackson Diehl reports on some congressional frustration over American inaction:
Whether you think we should intervene or not, it's great to hear someone with spine speak up. Joe Lieberman said:
Absolutely correct. This may well be a defining moment for the United States, as well as for the Middle East. I see no great sense of urgency coming from the White House.

While descending to land at the destination airport, the engine lost power. The pilot was able to maintain some engine power by moving the throttle in and out. While attempting a forced landing on a road, the flight encountered a truck and had to pull up. The right wing collided with power lines, the airplane crashed onto the road, slid off the road, and collided with trees. The pilot estimated there was 10 gallons of fuel remaining after the accident. Examination of the carburetor after the accident showed the inlet fuel screen was blocked about 50 percent with fiberglass debris, however there was no evidence of precrash mechanical failure or malfunction of the carburetor. The engine was operated to full power after the accident using the accident carburetor and with the carburetor fuel inlet screen blocked 50 percent. There was no evidence of failure or malfunction of the engine.

Annie Lopez gives as good as she gets. Offend her and you'll likely find yourself starring in her artwork. An example at hand of her cathartic approach is a piece she created last year featuring the silhouette of a woman and the legend You Are So Judgmental, inspired by a particularly critical New Times review of one of her shows. "[The critic] said it was time I dropped the Angry Latina bit," she says, with a wry smile.
Not a chance.
Take last summer's "La Gráfica Chicana: Three Decades of Chicano Prints 1970-2000" at the Phoenix Art Museum, one of the few shows the museum has offered in the past several years, Lopez says, that featured Chicano art. Lopez was under the impression that she would be a part of the exhibition. She wasn't. Neither were any local artists. But Lopez was asked to present some of her performance art at a Thursday night after-hours party during the exhibition's run.
She recalls standing in the lobby dressed as the Virgin of Guadalupe, handing out tortillas stenciled with her image as the Virgin. Later, Lopez says, she ventured up to the gallery where the poster show was on display and began passing out samples of her work printed on little American flags that she had smuggled in. "'I should be here,' I told people. They listened; they were very encouraging."
"Since then the museum hasn't invited me back," she says.
It's ironic, and surprising, that artists like Lopez, Joe Ray, and other alumni of MARS — the veteran downtown gallery that has long been the epicenter of Chicano art in Phoenix — have had no such trouble getting their work shown at the Smithsonian Institution, and in shows that have traveled to major galleries around the country.
It's also a sign that the battle Chicano artists took up nearly 25 years ago when they founded Movimiento Artístico del Río Salado is far from over. Sadly, though, MARS as we know it soon will be.
Lopez's frustrations with the meager support she sees for Chicano artists in Phoenix is not a new story, but a continuing one. And things are likely to get worse after July, when Phoenix says goodbye to MARS Artspace, which has given Chicano and Arizona artists a rare alternative to commercial galleries.
Though just shy of its silver anniversary and despite its past role as a fixture on the downtown scene, in a May 12 meeting, MARS members officially decided what had been rumored for weeks, that the beleaguered gallery would close its doors at the end of July. Lack of funding and an overall sense of fatigue by longtime members factored in, as well as a sense that perhaps the original idea had run its course — that the Movimiento in MARS, the force that propelled the cooperative through the late '70s, '80s and '90s, had long since stalled.
July's closure means different things to different people. Some current, and mostly Anglo, members say MARS can survive, albeit under a different name, with a different mission, and without a physical space of its own. Others say MARS died long ago, that the gallery has been for years a ghost of its former self, nothing more than a spawned-out salmon, swimming listlessly in circles as the flesh rots off its body.
Former director Rudy Guglielmo, who oversaw the group in 1988-89, is just one of several former members who feel MARS has lost what it once had, a collective vision. "I haven't been interested in their programs in the past few years," he says. "The shows have not been interesting to me. It's become a venue for individual artists."
Phoenix artist Joe Ray concurs. "It became about individuals serving their own interests, promoting their own work," he notes.
And then there was the quality of the work itself, which some ex-members say suffered as the focus blurred. Lopez says the nature of the art changed, too, and no longer reflects the society the artists live in. The provocative themes of the past — bold confrontations of political, sexual, religious or social issues; the familiar faces and themes of the street; the swirl of experiences and cultures around us — gave way to more mundane and fanciful work with little message or relevance.
Lopez doesn't quite understand where that inspiration comes from. "Those people that paint unicorns, I mean, I could understand it if you had a unicorn farm . . ."
Alternative, nonprofit art spaces like MARS are fragile creatures; any slight change in the social and economic ecosystem that surrounds them can prove fatal. That MARS survived as long as it did can be attributed to the strength of the movement it was born of — grassroots, Chicano-based, and passionate — as well as the strength and unity of the artists and their devotion to their mission. What MARS has become today is a very different entity from when it began, everyone agrees, and neither the composition of the cooperative nor the motivation of its members reflects what MARS once was.
"There is no shared goal," Ray says of MARS' last days. "Before, we all worked for the same goal. Even if what that was was sometimes a little fuzzy, we all served a higher purpose."

Astros dream of a better life as a 5th place AL West team
HOUSTON—As the Houston Astros hopelessly trudged through another day as the NL Central's 6th place team, their only motivation to wake up in the morning was a far fetched dream of someday escaping their cramped division and making a better life for themselves in the AL West.
"Do you know they only have four teams out there?" said Carlos Lee. "Only four! That's amazing! We could live out there, lose every single game and we'd still finish higher than we'll ever finish here," to which his Astros teammates shook their heads in bewilderment.
"Pitchers don't even have to hit." Lee continued, trying to divert everyone's thoughts away from their fate as the division's worst team. "They have guys who do it for them."
"Now you're just making stuff up," said pitcher Bud Norris.
"You'll see," replied Lee. "It sounds unreal, but it's all true, and one day there's going to be realignment and it'll be our life. I'm not saying we'll live like kings, but we certainly won't be live like this: toiling away in a six team division. There's space out West. Room to thrive. Room to dream."

Anybody ever tried a meat only diet. Like an eskimo diet.
What type of effect/results did you get.
Due to bad hair and acne issues I Came across a solution being a meat only diet. As no carbs means no excess insulin which should fix these problems.
In fact according to some of these articles the human body does not need carbs at all and they are completely unhealthy and damaging to the body. The cause of many modern day diseases.
I wonder if I could get a good physique eating 3000-4000 kcals beef, chicken, tuna, bacon etc each day???? (I mean no fruit, vege, grains, nuts, sauces, milk, juice etc..nothing but meat and spices).
(You'd think eating all that meat every day would be bad for bowels??? but form what I've read people have been following this type of diet for years with no problems??)
Well if anyone is interested in this topic here are a few of the links I was reading.
PS- Just a thought but anyone ever notice how it is only meat which is enjoyable. Example, you have spaghetti bolonagse, how nice would it be with only spaghetti no mince? Or a bacon roll vs a plain roll or tuna and baked potato v plain potato or curry and rice vs rice alone. Would you rather eat a barbecued piece of meat or a bit bread or rice or plain pasta etc....
Personally Plain carbs are not appealing in general whereas meat is always tasty, maybe this is sayig something. LOL. I dunno?

The school team. The town team. The travel team. If your young soccer player is on the field for several games or practices a week, it may be too much.
Most injuries occur in the 10- to 14-year-old age group. Younger players are more susceptible to injury because they're still growing.
Many soccer-related injuries are treated by health care professionals.
Injuries are more likely when kids are out of shape. Experts say it's not a good idea for a child to be inactive all summer and then play in three soccer leagues in the fall. Increase playing time gradually by no more than 10 to 20 percent each week. Children should be on teams that are not only age-appropriate, but size-appropriate.
Though most injuries were sprains, strains, bruises, and fractures, there's a growing concern about head injuries. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) says that most severe head injuries in soccer are caused by collisions with other players or with the goal posts. But there have also been questions about the safety of heading the ball. The AAP recommends discouraging heading until the child has adequate neck strength and can learn the skills needed to do this safely, with the proper technique. A player should never be forced to head a ball.
The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons recommends the following to prevent soccer injuries:
Take time to warm up and stretch, especially the hips, knees, thighs, and calves--cold muscles are more prone to injury.
Wear shin guards to help protect your lower legs.
Wear shoes with molded cleats or ribbed soles, not cleats that are screwed into the soles. Screw-in cleats should be worn when more traction is needed, such as on a wet field with high grass.
Don't allow players to crawl or sit on the goal, or hang from the net.
Pad and properly secure goal posts to decrease the incidence of head injuries during collisions with the posts.
Keep playing fields in good repair.
Consider wearing protective eyewear.

Martinez, meanwhile, became the first BU athlete to sweep the 5,000 and 10,000 individual titles at an America East outdoor meet.

Regular access to safe, nutritionally adequate, culturally acceptable food is known as food security.
Date: 02.05.11
Category: Healthy eating program publications
Large numbers of Australians, especially those from disadvantaged backgrounds, are affected by food insecurity, which has far-reaching consequences on physical, mental and social wellbeing.
In 2005 VicHealth made a five-year investment in the Food for All program, which was designed to increase regular access to, and consumption of, a variety of foods, particularly fruit and vegetables, by people living in disadvantaged communities. Eight local government areas were funded to reduce local infrastructure barriers to food security.
The program faced many challenges and made important gains, including having positive, significant impact on local councils' awareness and understanding of food security. By the end of the FFA funding period in 2010, participating councils, their communities and their partner agencies knew about food security and had incorporated it into many of their plans, policies and strategic priorities.

The horror film genre is one that attracts a fairly fervent fan base, from all observations. And I have to qualify it on an observation-only basis, because I have never seen a horror movie. Unless The Shining counts, and I'm not sure it does. But clearly--unlike me--the vast majority of the population has no problem separating the insane violence in these films from reality. In fact, loads of people revel in the dark, gruesome and occasionally ridiculous themes of these films. That's easy to understand on a lot of levels. Horror flicks are relatable metaphors for harsh economic realities and complex family issues, and people identify on some level with what's going on on-screen. It's an interesting cultural phenomenon when merciless, evil serial killers take on a certain anti-establishment charm that's somehow not hard to reconcile with their bloodlust. And Texas Frightmare Weekend is the perfect place to see this play out on a large scale. The three-day festival is teeming with fans hoping for a glimpse of their favorite villain or depraved screenwriter. This year's event features appearances by Halloweencreator John Carpenter, director George A. Romero and many other big names. Film screenings are, of course, de rigueur. And for wannabe filmmakers, a series of workshops entitled "Frightmare 101" will cover all the basics. The event runs from Friday through Sunday at the Sheraton Grand Hotel DFW, 4440 West John Carpenter Freeway. Weekend and daily passes are available at texasfrightmareweekend.com.

Megaupload shutdown led to higher digital sales, film rentals March 8, 2013 at 2:26 pm
A new study has found a link between Megaupload's shutdown and increased digital sales afterward. The impact is modest overall, but this is one of the first studies to examine digital revenues rather than focusing on physical products.
Thanks to ISP/Hollywood 'six strikes' rules, I'm now using a VPN November 29, 2012 at 1:30 pm
The six strikes policy agreement between Comcast, Time Warner Cable, AT&T, Verizon, Cablevision, and the RIAA/MPAA should have started today for AT&T customers. Rather than sign on for such monitoring, I've opted to use a VPN service. Not because I pirate, but because I don't trust the entertainment industry to uphold its end of the bargain.
'Six Strikes' programs from ISPs & MPAA ignites in nine days: Here's what you need to know November 19, 2012 at 11:17 am
Starting November 28, five of the largest ISPs in America will begin monitoring and notifying customers if they infringe on copyrights. Here's what the plans look like, and what your options are.
Verizon to throttle pirates' download speeds November 16, 2012 at 3:34 pm
Court was where the battles between pirates and copyright organizations were held. Thankfully, that is becoming more of a rarity. However, copyright enforcement is moving to the venue of ISPs, and that might be even worse.
Microsoft's new Kinect patent goes Big Brother, will spy on you for the MPAA November 6, 2012 at 2:18 pm
Microsoft has filed for a patent on a system that would monitor the number of people watching a movie at home — and prompt them to buy more licenses if a few friends came over.
Legality is no defense: UKNova shuttered despite respect for copyright holders August 27, 2012 at 1:39 pm
The UK-based group FACT has shut down UKNova, a website dedicated to torrent distribution while respecting all rights of copyholders. No commercial content was ever made available or allowed to stay that way.
BitTorrent usage increases in Europe, following the blockade of The Pirate Bay July 5, 2012 at 9:38 am
In a twist that will surprise no one except the RIAA, MPAA, BREIN, and other anti-piracy lobbies, the amount of BitTorrent traffic has stayed the same or increased in Europe following the blockade of The Pirate Bay in the UK, Netherlands, and other countries.
The Pirate Bay evades ISP blockade with IPv6, can do it 18 quintillion more times June 8, 2012 at 7:03 am
If you thought the RIAA and MPAA were a force to be reckoned with in the US, the last few months have shown that anti-piracy lobbying is alive and kicking in Europe, too. British, Dutch, Finnish, and Belgian judges and governments have begun forcing ISPs to block The Pirate Bay — but the Swedish site has found an ingenious way to evade the blocks.
The MPAA and RIAA should buy The Pirate Bay February 21, 2012 at 8:37 am
If the media industry really believes that file sharing sites are depriving them of money, why don't they just buy them out?

Revised 3/00 -- Author Reviewed 3/00 HIL-8012
The collard is a cool-season crop that should be grown during early spring or fall. The mature plant will withstand frosts and light to medium freezes. It is one of the most popular garden vegetables in the south and is rapidly becoming a delicacy in northern states as well. Collards provide a good source of vitamins and minerals.
Collards may be grown in a variety of soils. Heavier loamy soils will produce the greatest yields. The lighter, well drained, sandy soils are best for early spring crops. Soils should be well drained, rich in organic matter, and have a pH of 6.0 to 6.5.
Leafy vegetables require quick, continuous growth for best quality. They need ample nitrogen for good green color and tender growth. Soil testing is recommended. For average soils, use 1- 2 lb of 10-10-10 per 100 ft2 before planting. Side-dress with 3 oz of 10-10-10 per 100 ft2, 3 to 5 weeks after the seed comes up or after transplanting, and 2 to 3 weeks after that.
Plant Vates, Carolina Improved Heading (or Morris), Georgia Southern, Blue Max, or Heavi Crop. These varieties have consistently done well in North Carolina conditions.
Cropping Systems
There are four general ways to produce collards:
Growing Plants
Plants may be grown by seeding directly in the field (0.1 to 0.2 oz per 100 ft of row) or in protected beds (1 lb of seed per 1000 ft2). About 6 to 8 weeks will be required to produce plants ready for transplanting.
Direct Seeding
There are several good precision seeders (Earth Way or Garden Way seeder) on the market. In general, the seeders reduce seed use by 40 to 70%. The stands are much more uniform and require very little thinning. Uniform stands are easier to grow and harvest, thus reducing the cost of production. Uniform stands grow evenly and are better weed competitors. Seed should beplaced in moist soil usually 1/2 to 3/4 inch deep, but never deeper than 1 inch. If moisture is not adequate for germination in the top 3/4 inch, irrigation should be applied. Frequent irrigation is also important in obtaining good stands in hot weather (1/4 inch per day at midday).
Spacing depends on how the crop will be produced. If the plants are to be cut when half grown, they may be spaced 10 to 15 inches apart. If they are to be harvested when full grown they should be spaced 15 to 18 inches apart. If the seed is to be drilled in the row and the young collard plants are to be harvested, similar to mustard greens, the plants may be 2 to 4 inches apart. Rows should be 36 to 42 inches apart for conventional systems. However, multirow beds of 2 to 4 rows on 38 to 60 inch centers provide greater yields and improved quality. In such a system, rows on each bed are spaced 12 to 18 inches apart. This provides rapid ground cover, fewer weeds and more tender growth.
Collards, like other members of this plant family, require above average moisture. Use irrigation liberally in times of potential moisture stress, usually for a total of up to 1.5 inches per week when combined with precipitation is less than this.
Weed Management*
The production method you use and the season you plant the crop will determine the kind and extent of your weed problems. Herbicides are available for use on collards and are generally recommended. Whether you use a herbicide or not, some cultivation will likely be necessary. Avoid deep cultivation. Close spacing and rapid growth will help to suppress weeds.
Insect Management*
Several worms (imported cabbage worm, cabbage looper, diamondback larvae) and Harlequin bugs are the predominant insects. A rigid control program will be necessary, especially during summer and fall. Aphids are also a serious problem during cool weather. Use high pressure (200 psi) sprayers and a spray sticker to provide best control.
Disease Management*
Some diseases, such as black rot, are seed-borne. Insist on western grown, chemically treated seed to reduce this disease. Another major disease is Downy Mildew which produces discolored spots on the leaves. The Carolina variety has resistance to one or more strains of Downy Mildew. Refer to the N.C. Agricultural Chemicals Manual for chemical recommendations.
* For all pesticide recommendations, check the latest issue of the N.C. Agricultural Chemicals Manual.

text: >Or maybe I'm just too ADD to cook over a fire...LOL. Pottery cooking does take patience. Thing heat slow but they retain their heat once it is in. It's a bit more difficult to adjust temp so that causes problems. The best use for pottery is long slow cooking or searing/stir-fry. You need to plan for foods like that. I'm working on some ideas for King's College. I'm thinking of a chicken over a spit and one in a potjie. A roast on the spit. Or steaks grilled. Sauteed greens. Maybe a salmon stuffed with herbs and wrapped in clay then baked in the coals (Gwneth, do you have a source for foodsafe clay?) a griddle bread of some type. Perhaps a pudding and a soup of some type. This should demonstrate several ways of period cookery over an open fire and a full meal. I'm still looking to put things together still.

November 28, 2014
POSTED Sunday, April 28, 2013 -- 12:30 p.m.
Reporter: Phil Levin
A Sunday morning crash in Waunakee totaled a car and cut power to the surrounding area.
After 9 a.m. Waunakee Police say it appears a driver passed out at the wheel heading East down Main St. The SUV swerved across oncoming traffic near Baker St. and struck a power pole, which split where it was hit.
"All of a sudden there was a big crash and a big flash of light," said Steve Welling, whose apartment building overlooks the crash site. "I looked to my left and I saw the power line dropping outside my door so I ran down and heard screaming."
Waunakee Police say a man was driving two family members from a basketball tournament at the high school. Police say none of them suffered major injuries as a result of the crash.
The power utility quickly restored service to some of the area, but said switching on the rest of the alley might not finish until early in the afternoon.
Police say the outage may have affected cell phone service when power to a nearby tower was cut.
