State Board Approves Majors Small League State Tournament
The NC Dixie Youth State Board has approved a Majors Small League state tournament for 2015. This 10 team state tournament will be held in Eden in conjunction with the 2015 Ozone state tournament. A Small League is defined as a league that has less than three 12U teams, either Majors or Ozone. Note: the State Director and/or the State Board has the authority to rule a league ineligible to be defined as a Small League if it is determined the league could have had 3 or more 12U teams. This will not affect the District Tournaments. A Small League will still participate in the district tournament. If a Small League wins or qualifies for the Majors state tournament in Cerro Gordo or the Ozone state tournament in Eden, it will advance to one of those tournaments with a chance to advance to a Dixie Youth World Series. A Small League that does not advance to the Majors or Ozone state tournament will qualify for the Majors Small League state tournament if it has the best record among all of the Small League teams in the district tournament. In some cases, two Small League teams may advance from the same district. The state champion of the Majors Small League state tournament will not advance beyond the state tournament. This will be discussed at the State Meeting on January 24 and at the district workshops. Tuesday, January 13

While it is very sad news that we will not get to be with Buddy physically (we will be with him spiritually as we work and play this year), we can have joy that Buddy is in Heaven.

About MeHi there,My name is Patrick Pii Nguyen. I've been modeling for about a year and a half and well, here I am today! The modeling I'm strongest in would be dealing with androgyny/gender-bending. However that being said, I'm not closed off to more gender-restricted/normal concepts. Check out my other portfolio and see for yourself! :) http://pii.portfoliobox.net I'm currently taking my studies at the University of Alberta (Major: Art & Design, Minor: Drama). Therefore as far as availibility goes, we'll just co-ordinate a time! I am not a flaky model nor am I a drama queen. Once I've taken intrest on an idea/concept, I'll be there. ***ONLY TAKING SERIOUS INQUIRIES. TOO MANY FLAKEY 'PROFESSIONALS' AS OF LATE.*** Anyways! :) I'm always looking to network/work with other models/photographers/MUAS/HairStylists/Designers both locally and internationally! Here's to new friends and hardwork! Cheers, Pii.

Under high-demand situations you can definitely hear a laptops fan running (as much as 5000-6000 rpm). In low-demand situations...a laptops fan is also running...it just may only be running at a MUCH quieter 1500 rpm...which could be mistaken for not running at all (but it is running) and providing needed cooling). - Nick - Too many "beachballs", read this: Beachballs - Computer seems slower than it used to?

5 Young Visitors on a Budget

Hello NY Chowhounders. My daugher and 4 of her friends, all impoverished university students, are visiting for a few days from Toronto. I'm footing the bill for their accommodation (aren't I nice) but they're on their own for food. They are staying at an apartment on 11th Ave. near 52nd St. but will be travelling all over town, including a late night show at The Rocky Horror show which is in Chelsea, I think. The apartment has a kitchen, so any good bagel places or bakeries near by would be great. They need really cheap places to eat. Are those fantastic New York food carts I hear about all over town? What would you suggest? And just to complicate things, 4 of the 5 are vegetarians. They are so excited to be visiting. New York is so fabulous!
Taim for the best falafel I've ever had (and I've had it in Israel . . .). Won't set them back too much $ for a great lunch!

The Generals: American Military Command from World War II to Today
Item Description
From the #1 bestselling author of Fiasco and The Gamble, an epic history of the decline of American military leadership from World War II to Iraq
History has been kind to the American generals of World War II—Marshall, Eisenhower, Patton, and Bradley—and less kind to the generals of the wars that followed. In The Generals, Thomas E. Ricks sets out to explain why that is. In part it is the story of a widening gulf between performance and accountability. During the Second World War, scores of American generals were relieved of command simply for not being good enough. Today, as one American colonel said bitterly during the Iraq War, "As matters stand now, a private who loses a rifle suffers far greater consequences than a general who loses a war."
In The Generals we meet great leaders and suspect ones, generals who rose to the occasion and those who failed themselves and their soldiers. Marshall and Eisenhower cast long shadows over this story, as does the less familiar Marine General O. P. Smith, whose fighting retreat from the Chinese onslaught into Korea in the winter of 1950 snatched a kind of victory from the jaws of annihilation.
But Korea also showed the first signs of an army leadership culture that neither punished mediocrity nor particularly rewarded daring. In the Vietnam War, the problem grew worse until, finally, American military leadership bottomed out. The My Lai massacre, Ricks shows us, is the emblematic event of this dark chapter of our history. In the wake of Vietnam a battle for the soul of the U.S. Army was waged with impressive success. It became a transformed institution, reinvigorated from the bottom up. But if the body was highly toned, its head still suffered from familiar problems, resulting in tactically savvy but strategically obtuse leadership that would win battles but end wars badly from the first Iraq War of 1990 through to the present.
Ricks has made a close study of America's military leaders for three decades, and in his hands this story resounds with larger meaning: about the transmission of values, about strategic thinking, and about the difference between an organization that learns and one that fails.

American League Championship Series – Red Sox & Tigers
2013 MLB Playoffs – American League Championship Series
They're officially back. While the return of the Boston Red Sox to the playoffs for the first time in four years was a big deal, winning a playoff series for the first time since 2008 was an even bigger step. And the Red Sox punched their ticket to the 2013 American League Championship Series with authority, nearly sweeping AL East division rivals Tampa Bay Rays before finally winning in four games. Now this team is one step closer to capturing its third World Series title in ten seasons, and the Boston Red Sox – Detroit Tigers 2013 ALCS is going to test the depth of the Sox lineup, starting pitchers, and relief corps.
Click here for ALCS MLB Playoff Tickets, Red Sox – Tigers Playoff Schedule
This is the Tigers' third straight trip to the ALCS, hence the reason the resurgent Red Sox have more to prove than the team that enjoyed so much success in the previous decade. The Detroit Tigers are the veteran team with playoff experience, a defending MVP Triple Crown winner in Miguel Cabrera, and three Cy Young-caliber pitchers in Max Scherzer, Anibal Sanchez, and Justin Verlander. While they had to overcome some defensive challenges and injuries to players including Cabrera (who finally showed some trademark power in the deciding game) to defeat the Oakland A's in five ALDS games, the Detroit Tigers American League Championship Series strategy is pretty clear: strikeout a ton of the opposition's lineup & ride the big play potential of a lineup with power from top to bottom. Two storied franchises are meeting in this 2013 ALCS, just as they are in the NLCS, and it'll be a test of both dugouts & bullpens to see who deserves having their 2013 World series ticket punched. Whether your seat is atop the Green Monster at Fenway Park or behind home plate at Comerica Park, your 2013 ALCS ticket is going to get you a great view of seven tightly contested games in the MLB Playoffs. Play ball!

If eBooks Are the Future, Do Publishers Have a Plan?
The numbers are in, and eBooks may very well be the bright spot in book publishing's dim future—but only if publishers can figure out a way to keep the momentum going.
EBook sales accounted for $46.5 million as of the end of September, according to the International Digital Publishing Forum (IDPF), but that number only represents trade eBook sales through wholesale channels. Retail numbers may be as much as double these figures due to industry wholesale discounts, says IDPF. It's a drop in the bucket for book sales overall, which amounted to about $1.26 billion for the month of September, according to the Association of American Publishers (AAP).
What's most astonishing, though, is that eBooks have sold like hotcakes without a marketing or sales strategy. Publishers are moving quick to catch up as new digital innovations come to market.
"Everybody's awake now," says Mike Shatzkin, a 40-year industry veteran and founder of the Idea Logical Company, a firm of digital publishing futurists. He lauds larger publishers such as Random House and Hachette for being way ahead in terms of the mechanics of getting eBooks to market. But one of the publishers' biggest problems, he says, is that their selling strategies are built around book formats, and not about the interests of the people reading those books.
Brian O'Leary, founder of Magellan Media, a publishing industry consultancy, agrees that the approach to finding the eBookworms varies from publisher to publisher. For instance, he notes many of Hachette Book Group's titles have had simultaneous print, audio, and e-book versions that are marketed and sold using common campaigns.
HarperStudio's publisher, Bob Miller, acknowledged that their overall strategy so far, is integrated with their print program because many of their eBooks and digital audiobooks have traditional print versions. This from the HarperCollins imprint that rocked the publishing world recently when they announced a 50-50 profit-sharing deal with authors—a departure from the traditional 7% to 15% royalty— and publishers of the multi-media "Vook" CRUSH IT!
Miller speculates that commercial fiction categories such as thriller, mystery, suspense, romance, and science fiction will continue to sell briskly in digital format. "Readers of these genres will continue to like the convenience and low cost of this format and are less concerned about having the physical book to keep on a shelf," he says.
But O'Leary suggests publishers such as HarperStudio would do well to take a page from the genre publisher's playbook. Though he's not advocating a one-size-fits-all marketing strategy, he notes that Harlequin has enjoyed much success by marketing short-form digital downloads for Nocturnal Bites separately, and recently announced the start of a digital-only imprint.
Indeed, Harlequin Enterprise Ltd.'s Brent Lewis, vice president of digital and Internet for Harlequin Enterprises Ltd., has been leading the strategic charge of Harlequin's digital publishing and marketing programs that now reach over 50 million readers in ebooks and digital audio, as well as on Harlequin's own site, in mobile distribution, and digital-only content.
Lewis' revealed Harlequin's not-so-secret ingredient in an interview with Fast Company last year: their consumers. "At Harlequin we have a very powerful brand that people have been very loyal and engaged to since the business began."
While Harlequin has its finger on the (ahem) throbbing pulse of its readers, it will be interesting to see what strategies evolve at Random House when industry vet and ex-Amazon employee Madeline McIntosh assumes the newly created position of President, Sales, Operations, and Digital on December 1. Her appointment will "unify their physical and digital sales efforts for adult, children's, and international titles, distribution, publishing operations, IT, and corporate digital-publishing capabilities in an interconnected team," according to a statement from Markus Dohle, Random House chairman and CEO.
They managed to pull out a blockbuster under current leadership. Crain's New York Business reported sales of Dan Brown's The Lost Symbol sold 100,000 e-books its first week out, or about 5% of total sales for the book. September ebook sales at Random House (much of which are presumably The Lost Symbol) pulled in $22.6 million, which is a 700% increase over Kindle sales last year. While every month can't be a Dan Brown blow-out, a good marketing strategy to find and retain loyal readers will help shore up the revenue model.
Right now, Shatzkin says eBooks are more profitable than print because there is no physical inventory, and in many cases the publisher has negotiated lower royalty payments (and other than the aforementioned specific instances, no one seems to have a marketing plan). As such, he believes Amazon, proprietors of the Kindle eReader, is subsidizing publishers for digital editions because the price they are paying up front for a digital edition is the same as for the print version.
O'Leary believes this too, will change. As publishers gain experience and sales grow, the cost of creating them will fall. "In the last year retail prices for e-books have been set lower than their print counterparts. If those lower prices stick, they will leave little room for retailer or publisher profitability under the traditional publishing model," he adds.
Yet Shatzkin wonders whether good marketing strategies and proper branding of digital books won't keep them from being cost prohibitive to the consumer. "There is plenty out there to read that's free. Will the public plunk down $25 for Ted Kennedy's eBook?" he asks, then responds, "I think it will take a while to answer that question."

Ebooks are really taking over I have successfully helped students worldwide achieve high grades and score using my word/pds test manual, long gone the days I search so hard for past paper and books to help me in studies but came up with none that have all the workout and multiply choiced answer so what I did was gether all the answers for all major exam and add it to pdf and word files for online ebooks for user to have access to and it really worked. Feel free to check out our free samples that are there to download http://www.testbank2.com
EBooks make so much sense. For the consumer, they promise convenience and (inevitably) lower costs; for the publisher they bring manufacturing and distribution costs to near zero. For the author they offer the opportunity to never be out-of-print and access to global markets. For the environment, they're a total win. But....there's always a but, it all comes down to marketing. How long will it take publishers to develop compelling expertise/advantage at web-marketing? And when authors already have (or establish) their own fan base, it's hard to imagine what publishers will be bringing to the table. $25 for an ebook as a viable business model? I'm really not feeling it.

Power Gamer's 3.5 Warrior Strategy Guide (OGL) PDFGoodman GamesKick Monster Butt You're looking at the first strategy guide for the revised edition of the world's most popular role playing game. Let's be real -- the game's about combat, not charisma! This strategy guide gives you the strategies and techniques you need to win. It's like a football coach's playbook, or a video game champion's cheat codes. Feat combos, sneaky skill uses, multiclassing secrets, and abusing the rules: that's what it's all about. Build the Perfect Warrior Pick the wrong feats and you'll be pushing up daisies. Pick the right ones and you'll be racking up XP! This book is all about making the right decisions to build the perfect warrior. Whether you're a fighter, barbarian, ranger, paladin, or monk, if you're interested in combat, you'll learn how to max out your abilities. Make the Right Decisions Who has the better chance of hitting an AC 15 target: a 5th level fighter with a two-handed longsword, or a 5th level ranger with a longsword and shortsword? If your BAB is +7 and you're facing an AC 15 monster, how much of your attack bonus should you allocate to Power Attack? Does fighting defensively really help you live longer? When you're through with this book, you'll know the answers. But Don't Tell the DM Everything in this guide comes straight from the core rulebooks. It's 100 percent official material; all we do is tell you how to use it. But you don't want your DM to read this book. Just think, all these useful tips and suggestions in the hands of the guy who runs the monsters! Shudder. Keep this one tucked away or you'll regret it. First of Its Kind This book has no new rules, no new feats, and no new prestige classes. Instead, it brings to d20 the most popular book category of the video game industry: the strategy guide. The Power Gamer's 3.5 Warrior Strategy Guide tells fighters, barbarians, rangers, paladins, and monks how to make the right decisions to build the perfect warrior -- using only the 100 percent official rules presented in the PHB. Chock full of tables, charts, stats, and comparisons with all the number-crunching done for you, it's a first-of-its-kind product useable in ANY d20 campaign.

We go all the time down here in Florida. We take quite a few during hunting season. They can reak havoc on a food plot or feeder. Some of my buddies have been trying to get a little business going running them down with dogs. You can check them out on FB. shadygrove hog snatchers. Bunch of 19-22 year olds, but they have a good time. The meat is good in my opinion, but we usually dont keep the big boars. We have two pens set up on our lease and we try to catch, cut and release as many of the boars as possible. They really blow up once they have been clipped. If you are ever in NW Florida, shoot me a pm and I can get you out with my buddies for free. They will catch it for you and the killing is up to you. Most use a knife, but some dont.

My love for photography began on a backpacking trip into the Eastern Sierra Nevada Mountains with my family in 2004. I brought a Nikon N90S that I barely knew how to use properly.
After getting the film back from the lab, I realized I had a long road ahead of me to begin capturing the sort of images I was imagining. I dedicated myself to improve my skills as a photographer, work that took years of effort. I read countless books about composition, light exposure, aperture. I read everything I could get my hands on.
During this time, I shot hundreds of rolls of film with the N90S and eventually upgraded to a Nikon F5. During those early years shooting film, I made numerous mistakes, but the experience of working with film helped me learn some life-long lessons in turning my images into art.
By 2007, photographing Death Valley National Park, I finally experienced the pre-visualization enabling me to turn my ideas into an image. When I received my slides back from the lab, my feelings were confirmed!
I then switched from 35mm film to a 4x5 large format camera. I saw large format photography as a way to connect myself more with the scene. It taught me to be selective in composing my images, to be patient, and to pay attention to the details. All due to the fact of how long it took to set up each composition. Not to mention the scene was backwards and upside down on the ground glass. While I feel I was learning a lot from this, I felt the urge to switch to digital. Due to a few local labs that lost some of my expensive film and processed others incorrectly.
Eventually, with the amazing advances in digital photography, I made the jump to a Nikon D700 (currently a D800E). I have never been happier. Every day is an opportunity for me to become a better photographer. I still read about new techniques and refine my skills in the digital darkroom.
Photography has been a true adventure. It has been a wild ride so far, with plenty of ups and downs, but I know I will better my skill everyday through hard work, dedication, and willingness.
Thank you for taking the time to view my work and share in the world I am so passionate about.

Welcome to our 2015 Spring blog hop! I am joining up with 3 other great bloggers to bring you some fun ideas to welcome spring, so don't forget to hop on over to their blogs at the end of this post and check them out as well!
I'm excited to share a project with you today that I had so much fun making!
As I've said before, winter here in the west coast has been pretty mild. We have been enoying spring-like weather for a couple months now. So while I was making new signs for my retail space, I was browsing The Graphics Fairy for some inspiration and found this sweet picture of a bicycle. Immediately I thought about my Umbrellas for Rent sign and knew that I wanted to make a Bicycles for Rent sign too!
As always, I felt a twinge of inspiration and got busy painting a piece of scrap plywood I had in the garage that was the perfect size for my vision,
and transferred the graphic onto my board using the freezer paper method.
Then I designed the lettering on Microsoft word.
After transferring the wording on with carbon paper, I painted over it with a liner brush.
When I was finished, I didn't like the way the edges had holes in them since I'd used plywood. That's where the idea for the frame took place. I found some scrap lathing I had on hand, and painted over it with some green apple paint and applied a rub of walnut minwax stain after it was all dry. Then I attached the frame using my brad nailer (Icouldn't live without that tool. So worth the investment!).
I liked the way it turned out so much that after I delivered the first one to the shop, I went ahead and made another one for the space above our entry armoir.
I like the way it detracts from the heating vent.
It's a fun welcome every time we come in the door.
Hope the weather is nice where you are!
Now, don't forget to visit these fun blogs!

Restaurant Nutrition Information
What chain restaurants do you wish were in our database? We want to hear from you so that we can potentially add the nutrition facts for your favorite places and make logging easier! Thanks in advance for your suggestions!
Reason: Sticky
I rarely eat at popular eateries much. But could you add some Japanese and Korean food to the database? Korean food such as soy marinated crab, cold buckwheat noodle, dumplings, kimchi, hot squid. I recognize that the entire food database is geared toward average American who doesn't eat all the food I just mentioned above. But for someone like me who has a very different eating habit, it is just very difficult.
Certain grocery brands that are really popular-- at the very least, Trader Joes & Whole Foods.
They have very different nutrition info and i end up having to plug them in a lot.
I am in the UK, and wonder whether we could get nutritional info for Wagamama? They don't publish info anywhere which makes me both suspicious and anxious!

Delhi-based ET Travel reader Daksh Sharma suggests travellers must try staying over at an ecofriendly homestay option in Landour.
At least six militants on motorbikes targeted a school in the Gulshan-e-Iqbal area of Karachi and escaped.
At a function held at the school premises last night, State Fisheries Minister KA Jayapal inaugurated the smart class facility in the school.
The incident was immediately reported to the Minority Department officer, who ordered the suspension of five staff members.
A Christian school was allegedly vandalised by a group of unidentified persons in South Delhi's Vasant Vihar area in the wee hours today, police said.
The PIL by Uday Foundation through its founder Rahul Verma had sought an immediate ban on junk food and carbonated drinks in all unaided and private schools.
Recently, the famous Newport News Public Schools (NNPS) in Virginia adopted a pilot programme called 'Here Comes the Bus' that allows parents to track their child's school bus in real time.
The rumours spread after the news that a Christian school had been vandalised in Delhi was flashed in the media.
