Carefusion profits soar 84%
Carefusion Corporation, the medical devices company, reported on Monday that profits for the year ended June 2011 increased 84.2% to $291 million as the company experienced growth in its Infusion, Dispensing and Infection Prevention businesses, gross margin expansion and the benefit of strong spending controls.
Revenue for fiscal 2011 increased 2 percent to $3.53 billion. Operating income increased to $496 million and income from continuing operations increased to $291 million, or $1.29 per diluted share. Excluding nonrecurring items, adjusted operating income increased $87 million to $602 million and adjusted income from continuing operations increased $70 million to $371 million, or $1.65 per diluted share.
Kieran Gallahue, chairman and CEO said, "Looking ahead to fiscal 2012, we will continue to leverage operational efficiencies and reduce complexity across our businesses to drive bottom line growth that outpaces our top line growth. We are expecting revenue growth in a range of 3 to 5 percent over fiscal 2011 results, representing an improvement over the 2 percent growth we had this year and acceleration over the low single digit growth rates we are seeing in the markets where we participate. For adjusted EPS we are guiding to a range of $1.80 to $1.90."
The stock price rose 9.97% on Tuesday to $24.48 representing a forward P/E ratio of 13.2.
LSB profits soar 350%
LSB Industries, the chemical and climate control company, reported on Monday an increase in profits for the second quarter 2011 to $28.6 million from $6 million in 2010. The increase was driven by a $33.5 million net increase by the Chemical Business and a $2.2 million increase by the Climate Control Business. The increase in the Chemical Business operating income reflects increased overall selling prices and volumes across all major product lines: agricultural, mining and industrial chemical products. Gross profit improved due to reduced costs per ton stemming from improved production efficiencies and higher volumes at the Pryor, Okla., chemical plant.
Jack Golsen, LSB's board chairman and CEO stated, "This was the best quarter in our recent history in terms of sales, operating income and net income. While we remain confident that 2011 will be an outstanding year, our optimism has been tempered by current economic and weather-related issues.
"In our Chemical Business, we expect that demand for our industrial and mining products should remain strong for the balance of 2011. The supply and demand fundamentals for our agricultural products have never been better. Demand for UAN fertilizer is robust, driven by the positive outlook for the crops that use our nitrogen fertilizers. Currently certain of our El Dorado Chemical Company facility's Mid-South market area for agricultural grade ammonium nitrate is in a drought condition. As a result, we expect to ship product to other freight logical markets and/or divert the capacity to other products."

Connecticut's attorney general and the town's health director said last week they want stricter regulations on ephedra, the controversial dietary supplement under investigation for its possible role in the death of a Baltimore Orioles pitcher last week.
State Attorney General Richard Blumenthal said he had conducted a two-month inquiry into the potential dangers of ephedra and other dietary supplements.
"Part of our inquiry is to determine whether additional legislation may be possible," Blumenthal said Thursday. "There should be some more responsible regulation, whether it's as a drug or a similar product."
Blumenthal, a Greenwich resident, said he is looking into whether companies use deceptive and misleading practices to sell the product.
Ephedra is an herb most commonly used to lose weight and to boost energy for longer workouts. It is not regulated by the Food and Drug Administration because it is not technically a drug. The FDA has reported that about 100 deaths have been linked to ephedrine, ephedra's main active ingredient. Another study found more than 1,500 side effects among ephedra users.
Ephedrine acts as a stimulant and helps people feel less hungry, said Robert Rosum, a clinical care supervisor at Greenwich Hospital. Products containing ephedrine can increase blood pressure and body temperature and may lead to heart attacks, seizures, strokes and addiction, he said. Many supplements are combined with caffeine which can cause arrhythmia, Rosum said.
The FDA is investigating whether ephedra is to blame for the death of Steve Bechler, a 23-year-old Orioles pitcher who died last Monday from heat stroke. As part of his training regimen, he reportedly used an ephedra-containing supplement. Rosum said such supplements limit sweating, causing body temperature to rise.
Caroline Calderone Baisley, director of the Greenwich Department of Health, said she hopes FDA officials will carefully consider whether ephedra-based products were linked to Bechler's death.
"A decision should be rendered whether these things because of their potency, and the effects they have on individuals should be regulated," she said. "In my opinion, it wouldn't be a bad idea."
A local law in Westchester County, N.Y., bans the sale of supplements containing ephedra to anyone under the age of 18. Baisley said she is not aware of any such proposed legislation for Connecticut.
However, some stores, including the GNC store in Riverside, have voluntarily decided to card minors who wish to buy the product.
State Sen. Chris Murphy, D-16th District, who chairs the General Assembly's Public Health Committee, said restricting sales of ephedra may become part of a bill he proposed to ban teachers and coaches from distributing supplements to students and athletes.
But when it comes to sales of ephedra, not everyone agrees they should be limited.
"It has so many legitimate uses, especially for asthmatics and people suffering this time of the year with all the coughs and colds and decongestion," said Leo Roberge, director of the Drug Control Division of the state Department of Consumer Protection. "It wouldn't be in the population's best interest to remove the product from the marketplace."
Michael Saluzzi, owner of the GNC store in Riverside, said ephedra is safe and effective if used in accordance with labels.
Because ephedra is often advertised as "ma huang" the Chinese name for the herb people are misled into thinking it is harmless, Rosum said.
"It should be a prescription medication," Rosum said. "This way, it will only be used in a proper setting, or will be monitored more safely."

Kal helps keep Lynch's charity golf event going
There was no doubt that the annual Budd Lynch charity golf tournament was going to undergo change this year, but Ken Kal, who followed in Lynch's footsteps as the radio play-by-play voice of the Detroit Red Wings, was among those determined to make certain that the event would not fall by the wayside.
For 23 years, Windsor native Lynch, who died last October at the age of 95, was the face of and the driving force behind the annual golf tournament at Grosse Ile, Mich. Golf and Country Club, an event that's raised over $1 million for The Guidance Center of Wayne County, Mich., which provides aid and assistance to at-risk children.
Kal volunteered to step in as the man who organized the celebrities who partake in the even as part of each group and Monday, the tournament was held for the first time without Lynch and christened with the new handle of the Budd Lynch Memorial Golf Classic.
"It's an honour and a privilege to have been a part of this for so many years and to keep the tradition going and help support a good cause," Kal said. "That's the reason why so many people were out here to play golf and remember Budd Lynch.
"Budd was with the Red Wings organization for over 50 years and the Guidance Center to him was his baby.
"It was a cause he really looked after."
Among the celebrities who stepped up to participate this year were former Red Wings players John Ogrodnick, Dave Lewis and Eddie Mio of Windsor, former Boston Bruin Darren Banks of Windsor, ex-Detroit Tigers Jeff Kaiser and Ray Herbert, former major-league pitchers Dennis Rasmussen and Steve Avery and retired NFLers Mike Jolly and Mike Lodish, the latter the owner of a record six Super Bowl appearances between his time with the Buffalo Bills and Denver Broncos.
As much as it was a celebration of the continuation of a great cause in Lynch's memory, the memories that he made over the years of this event cause everyone to pause and reflect upon the first tournament without Budd's ever-present smile.
"Today I was playing the course and I was waiting for him to come around in the golf cart and just say, 'Hi,' as he always did," Kal said. "I kind of missed that today.
"With that said, I think he was here in spirit. I think everybody had a good time."
In Kal's mind, Lynch will always hold legendary status.
"He and Bruce Martyn to me were the Red Wing hockey broadcasters," Kal said. "Growing up listening to Budd, both on radio on television, he always meant a lot to me.
"I've always said that Budd Lynch was a father figure to me personally, because any time I had a problem or a question I could always go up to Budd and he would always answer like he was your father, and he would always give you the right answer and make you feel good about yourself, even when things were bad.
"He was a great guy, he's missed, but somehow, I just think he was here in spirit."

This spring, a lot of emphasis seems to be put on comfort and the ability to look both casual and on trend. This Fashionista sports a unique spring look with a pair of billowy, navy gypsy pants pairing them with a black quilted bomber jacket and bright red top that brings the look to life.
Hard to pull off, this Fashionista styles her new pants perfectly after snagging them at a local vintage shop on fifth avenue. Big, billowy pants that are slightly tapered at the ankle are big this season and look on point when worn with simple sneakers for a daytime look, like this Fashionista wears, or with skinny heeled pumps or wedges when dressing up.
The use of the blue and red, two solid, primary colors, is subdued with the black jacket and black Converse. Beat-up, black low-top Converse sneakers tone down the pants and give them a casual, everyday vibe that makes them suitable for going to class. Delicate gold necklaces add a touch of femininity and bring out the richness of the red and blue colors. The black bomber jacket is a clutch piece for layering in the spring as it is simple yet chic and works well with the varying weather.
Big gypsy pants like these are a fun look and when styled correctly are a solid option for spring. Try a pair in a solid shade like this Fashionista, or check out some printed pants that Urban Outfitters is selling that are similar in style. Add a quilted bomber jacket to the look and keep it in your wardrobe for the rest of the season. Spice it up with delicate gold necklaces of your choosing along with a personalized one like this Fashionista wears.

Money, Possessions, and Eternity: A Discussion with Randy Alcorn–Part 3
- by
- October 11, 2012
- Authors,Interviews
Randy Alcorn is the founder and director of Eternal Perspective Ministries (EPM), a nonprofit ministry dedicated to teaching the principles of God's Word and assisting the church in ministering to the unreached, unfed, unborn, uneducated, unreconciled, and unsupported people around the world. His ministry focus is communicating the strategic importance of using our earthly time, money, possessions, and opportunities to invest in need-meeting ministries that count for eternity.
We were able to talk to Randy about Money, Possessions, and Eternity and how to have a biblically centered mindset regarding our treasures. Because of Randy's rich answers to each of our questions, we've broken this interview into a four-part miniseries on finances. Be sure to check back tomorrow for part 4.
Vyrso Voice: When judging your relationship to money and stuff, where is a good place to start? How do you make an honest assessment of your relationship to your possessions?
Randy Alcorn: Many of us have never known what it is not to be materialistic. This is why we need so desperately to read the Scriptures, grapple with these issues, bring them to God in prayer, discuss them with our brothers and sisters, and look for and learn from those rare models of generous living in our Christian communities.
In the parable of the great banquet, Jesus describes invitations that went out to three men (Luke 14:16-24). All three declined. One said he had to go look at his newly bought field. Another had just gotten married and didn't have the time. The third man had just purchased five yoke of oxen and was anxious to try them out. The master is angered by these excuses, and he orders his servants to "go out quickly into the streets and alleys of the town and bring in the poor, the crippled, the blind and the lame." Speaking of those originally invited, who were preoccupied with other concerns, Jesus said, "I tell you, not one of those men who were invited will get a taste of my banquet" (Luke 14:24).
There was nothing wrong with what any of the three men were involved in. They didn't stay away from the banquet because they were stealing or committing adultery. They stayed away because they had more pressing concerns—a new field, a new wife, a new herd. But regardless of their reasons—good or bad—the bottom line was the same: They were so preoccupied with their new treasures that they said no to the banquet giver and missed the banquet. Significantly, those without material resources were available to accept the invitation.
I think we need to ask ourselves tough questions. Including, for what seemingly good, legitimate, and compelling reasons am I saying no to God? Are my possessions and other pressing concerns causing me to miss the banquet? How would my family and I benefit, and how would God's kingdom be furthered, if we gave away those possessions?
The only way to break free of materialism is through giving. God hasn't entrusted us with so much to raise our standard of living, but to raise our standard of giving. So why not liquidate some assets and cut expenditures, and give increasingly more to God's kingdom? Why not draw a line and say "this much and no more—we can live comfortably on this level of income, Lord; if you provide more than that we're going to invest the excess in your kingdom." If you do that, you will experience great joy and you'll sense God saying to you "Well done." And your children will grow up in a home that's really about God's kingdom.

Part of Orders of the Day – in the House of Commons at 5:21 pm on 7th January 2008.
Obviously if an individual was in a position where pension credit would be forthcoming a short time before retirement—the default position, as it were—it would not be in their interests to contribute to a personal account, and they would sign the form to opt out. That is just common sense. However, what I do not understand about the Opposition's line of attack is this. The hon. Member for Epsom and Ewell is talking about a situation 25, 30 or 40 years ahead, but what is he saying? He is saying, in effect, that we should simply just leave it to the taxpayer, and start a scare almost—that is what the Opposition are doing with all this noise—and thereby discourage people on low incomes from contributing. Those people will then end up in a worse situation and the taxpayer will have to bail them out, unfunded and at an unpredictable level.
The hon. Gentleman also does not take into account the proposals on trivial commutation—that is, to switch some of the contributions into a lump sum of potentially £16,000, an amount that could be kept under review. In other words, by all means let us debate the detail, but let us not use that as an excuse to derail the progress of the Bill.

|1 & 2 Samuel
|OT Commentary Survey - Historical Books
The books of Samuel are superb narratives full of intrigue and suspense. The recent appreciation of the narrative artistry of the Hebrew Bible has been a boon for the study of these books. In this regard, Jobling's commentary is an absolutely excellent and careful study of 1 Samuel. I highly recommend it (he's also a fellow Canadian). Alter is also excellent in this regard, as is Brueggemann and Cartledge. Anderson and Klein offer solid scholarship in their WBC volumes. McCarter provides a detailed text-critical analysis of Samuel, though not all will agree with his analysis. I also included Driver's excellent, albeit dated, work.
The more popular offerings of Arnold, Baldwin, Chafin, and Evans are all very good, though Baldwin is a bit dated. I would probably consider Arnold's volume the best of the more popular options.

text: Well this info is not for a debate on if it's worth it or not rather if you do and what you will need. Uprated k04 files from GIAC - requirements Required for all uprated files: - k04-15 (duh) - Upgraded exhaust - Upgraded intercooler (SMIC or FMIC) - Upgraded clutch Required for pc-16 file (1997-1999.5): - 3bar FPR according to GIAC, but "real world" reports recomend an adjustable FPR running at 2.7 or 2.8bar (google this for more examples) - 310cc injectors Required for j31 file (2000): - 3bar FPR - 310cc injectors Required for Hammer file (2001): - 3" OD MAF (from auid TT 225) - 380cc injectors (from audi TT 225) For more info on the k04 in the 2001 a4, including places to source parts and prices, check out my unitronic build thread here. Not required for files but nice to have: - test pipe (ATP 3") - larger Turbo Intake hose (ATP 3" TIP or Neuspeed xtreme intake hose) - silicone boost hoses (samco if you want to pay full price, Zena Racing if you don't) Parts info 2.5" exhaust, DP back - I think it was about $850 new (techtonics). $400 and up in the classifieds. The turbo needs to breathe. Any bigger than 2.5" will be overkill on a k04 though. Some will say go with the 2.75, but that can lead to overboost, and I already have a 2.5" so I'm not upgrading right now. This is about doing a k04 for less money, remember? 3" test pipe - range from $75 to $125 for used, up to $160 for new. The cat sucks power. If you can, get rid of it. The 3 inch unit bolts right up and you can really feel the difference. This part is readily available in the classifieds, so if you don't have one avoid paying full price. It's just a 3 inch tube! I got mine for $125 new, and it's an ATP unit. Custom is an option here, but you may have trouble due to emissions laws... Diverter Valve - $50 to $70 used, up to $160 new. Your diverter valve is old and tired. Pick your favorite brand and get it in place. Buy it used if you can find one in good shape, should run $50 to $70 for that. Otherwise they are on every tuner's site for $150-ish ATP 3" TIP - $260 new. So this baby is a 3 inch metal pipe, with one end attached to your turbo inlet and the other end attached to you MAF. It's great for two reasons. 1) It makes it nice and easy to plumb up your new 3" MAF, and 2) essentailly you're making sure there is no bottleneck and allowing the turbo to suck in as much air as possible with this baby. You're building an intake with a 3 inch MAF sensor housing anyway, so why stop there? Let it flow 3 inches all the way to the turbo. It won't starve for air without it, but you want it to be able to take in as much air as possible. For my money I'd always rather have a big metal pipe than a stock rubber piece or the samco, APR, or neuspeed upgraded units. They're not as bid, and in the end they're still rubber and can get soft, flex, crack, melt, and whatnot. Also, DON'T get this used. I bought one secondhand, and it was a disaster because it was missing pieces. Took three shipments from ATP, and cost me more than it would have to just get it from ATP new to begin with because they sent me the wrong stuff so I had to finish it with a home depot trip. It was worth it though, that baby has no problems suckin in air. Parts Needed specifically for the Unitronic file: k04-15 turbo - $300 - 500 used, $800 new. I highly suggest holding out for a low mileage used turbo. They run between $300 and $500 depending on the mileage. If you can't, or don't want to risk not having a warranty, click here to get one the next best way... from Rippinralf @ Kinetic Do NOT buy one of eBay for $200. They're not real, and will not fit properly. See the main k04 thread in the DIY/FAQ for that. OE 225 TT 380cc injectors - $150 used, $450 new. Why mess with things? Both files call for OE, and they're available. If you search, the going rate on 4T, Audizine, and Audiworld is about $150 give or take so hold out for that. They're not as scarce as people like to think. Unitronic specifically said to use them, so I'm sticking with their guidelines. If you can't find them your options are not as great as they used to be. All the pages say Genesis has discontinued their 380cc injectrs, but they're about $250 new if you can find them. Other than that GIAC mentions that Siemens Deka 1 380cc's work as well. If you're not going to get used parts out of the classifieds, talk to USRT as they have good prices and a great reputation around these parts. A note on sourcing these (pay attention - this is a nice tidbit!): to find them you need to do two things. 1) watch the mk1 TT classifieds, and 2) post a WTB in the forced indcution classifieds. Don't post in the mk1 TT classifieds looking for the part. They have enough buyers coming to them, they're not going to find you and post for you. Plus if you wait you're going to get beat out for the injectors if you are not pro-active. The WTB in the FI forum will catch everything else... Geneis, Siemens, and even some TT OE injectors. I posted and injectors started falling in my lap. I missed good deals thought because people saw my thread and started short-stopping, and the people posting in my thread were posting elsewhere. If you get a good deal there snap it up right away. Work smarter, not harder, to find your parts! Intercooler - $250 - $350 for eBay, $400 - 800 used, $500 - $1000 new. I've decided on the Boost Factory SMIC for this project, because it will be efficient enough for the k04 (and still support a GT series turbo if I change my mind), while mounting in a stock location which will eliminate a need to hack my bumper, remove my fogs, and avoid any issues with the intercooler blocking airflow to my radiator or bouncing off the ends of a pothole in Boston and getting damaged. SMICs have show for be on equal ground with FMICs, and this is a great opportunity to demonstrate that. If you want to go FMIC, and want to save money, the eBay DIY FMIC as discussed on another board seems to be a great route. An upgraded intercooler is required for most more agressive files, so don't skip this. click HERE to jump to more pics of the intercooler. OE 225 TT MAF - $70 to $160 remanufactured, $150 - ?? new. Audi Part number: 06A906461EX / Bosch part number 0 986 280 211 X - This part, for the AMU engine, has a 3" OD, and you should use the sensor AND housing. GIAC calls specifically for the OE 225TT piece, Unitronic says that most 3" OD hosings and sensors from Audi/VW should work. I think you'll be safe with a vr6 unit, which is supposedly cheaper, but I'm sticking with the TT unit on basic principle since either software company says it will work. MJM Autohaus sent me a part ending in MX, which is for, the BEA Engine, and they claim it is interchangable. We shall see. Prices for this are ALL over the place. I'm heasitant to put any links in here because prices have changed TWICE since I began this thread. The two best prices I can find currently are at MJM Autohaus and German Auto Parts. Even if other places are cheaper GAP has some of the best customer service I have ever seen, and they are on top of their info (on par with DieselGeek, all around, if you've dealt with them you know!). MJM has been great as well, although in all honesty they seem a little more confused when you ask them questions. Can't go wrong ordering from either, as they are head and shoulders above most other places you're going to be able to source parts. Software - $650 Even though I have Revo currently I've decided Unitronic is the way to go for this project. On paper they have a much more solid k04 program than GIAC's hammer file. They are able to remove the SAI, and make sure my test pipe does not throw codes, which GIAC does not seem to be able to offer me. Unitronic is confident that they can easily beat the 200whp provided by GIAC's hammer file, and I've heard a lot of good things about their software from tuners and users. It looks like nobody in here has tried this route, and the common conception is that GIAC Hammer file is the only way to go for the 01. Hopefully we will see in this thread that Unitronic is a fantastic alternative. If all goes well and the software lives up to expectations it will be the new standard. Only dyno time will show for sure though. For more info, click here for GIAC's parts list for the Hammer file. Some other bits and pieces: SAI Removal - $45 twenty squared has a block off plate and resistor for this, I will be picking those up as well to get the dustbuster out from under my hood. One of the benefits on Unitronic is that they can code this puppy right out, so between the plate, the resistor, and the software codes from this are a thing of the past MAP Relocation - Click here to jump to post not as much a part as a few parts coming together. DBW cars have a MAP sensor on the Intercooler. If your FMIC/SMIC core doesn't have a bung welded to it, here's is a nice option that moves the MAP to a more accessable location. Some parts I am not using: ATP or Kinetic manifold - All the stuff I've read seems to say that these give you more top end but take a bit of your low end. Part of the reason I want the mild k04 upgrade is because the car lives and drives in the city. I'm not going to bomb down Comm Ave at 120. I do need to cross some intersections that would make you think twice about the existence of god, so I'll take the low end. IF of course someone wants to donate a manifold to prove the critics wrong, I will dyno before and after and allow you to use the charts. Here is a car with a full K04 upgrade running on a dyno Link

This has been bugging me for quiet a while now...>.<
Why was Horace Slughorn in Slytherin?
So far, all the Slytherins we know are cunning, mean, snobbish brats.
Slughorn is cunning of course, and I admit he can be a bit mean as well, like when he ignored Ron in HBP...
But I've never seen him as a real Slytherin...more like a Slythpuff, no?
He preffered those who excelled in certain fields and showered them with all the attention in the world; some of those people liked him for it but other -like Harry- didn't.
He's this fat, round-bellied, mustached, sphere-like, pineapple loving guy who doesn't really do anyone any harm.
On the other hand, he's intelligent, cunning and loves his luxuries...like a Slytherin??
Opinions anyone??

glad to hear you're up there climbing james!
i wish you would've hit us up first, clay and i ran these lines already (not collectively as three pitches). he and i never got back to give the finger crack a proper sunny-d-esque like cleaning, thus spawning 'king lizard' out of respect of my abscence.
we were still discussing the need and placements for bolts on the intial slab past the horizontals.
i had also freed the upper right leaning crack when we finished redneck slab, following the crack proper and scrambling over and rapping down near assumption as well.
i'm not too sure where to go with this. i wish we could've talked first.

I have to agree with grk10vq on this. We have spent a lot of time up there cleaning and scrubbing cracks in an attempt to make a really great area. The line that James FAed had been looked at and climbed in pieces. We wanted to make sure it was a worthy line for the area. This is one of those times where I think I might have posted up the new additions prematurely. (maybe I should have kept my mouth shut for awhile). There are still projects up there that we have been (are) working on. I realize that I (we) really don't have rock ownership, however a little communication could have gone a long ways. I hope now that the crack/line gets a good scrubbing to make it worthy of the area.

If you guys have already climbed this, good on you for such bold leads. That must have been rad! My sincere apologies for in effect retrobolting it. Feel free to chop it or I will simply change all the FA data (let me know) and take only credit for equipping it. Whatever you want to do is OK with me...it certainly didn't look climbed and defintely not cleaned beforehand and I saw no chalk ANYWHERE when I climbed it. Furthermore, I apologise for not calling you and getting your permission to climb there.
Honest mistake....hopefully, you will concur.

James - so sorry for any confusion. I can see how you would have thought it was unclimbed because its a dirty place. We knew it was going to be a huge cleaning task and wanted to really hit it hard before anyone got on it. Another 40 hours? I sure as hell hope not! I'm sure you can appreciate the difficulty in cleaning new lines as you've put in your share of hard work that way.
We were working on it when I broke my foot and then it got hot and I'm still a gimp. I hate being so lame. This is the one ground up, traditional line Gregg and I have been getting our heads around. We were hoping to go sans fixed gear and had been working on how to do it. I was especially psyched for the gear in those horizontals and feel we'll be able to pull it off safely but I know it'll be a close call with some serious commitment to pull off. Now that you've been on it you'll have to give us the beta on the feasability of that.
Let's talk - give me a call - I'm in your phone. If you want some lines to do I have a few ideas you'd really love.

|A0 bolt ladder on a slab?
By John Steiger
Sep 4, 2011
|Got spanked on the first pitch. Hard to believe the bolt ladder has been freed at only 5.11; we had to yank on draws to get through it maybe we just didnt have enough coffee. Terribly flaky rock too. We ended up doing King Lizard. On the rap down, we went over Another Days 2nd pitch finger crackthe crack appears to be filling in with vegetation; might want to bring a gardening tool. By the way, isnt the 2nd pitch finger crack the same as Delicacy?

Tough times for Bosley as liquidators move in
Top chef Martin Bosley has been forced into liquidation, 13 years after the opening of his award-winning restaurant.
The chef sat alone in a sea of empty tables yesterday, wringing his hands.
"It's the hardest decision I've ever had to make, it's the worst day of my life," he said.
"Having to tell the staff that you'll no longer be here, it's devastating. It's not a position we ever thought we'd be in. We feel like we've been part of the family in this town for a long time. I'm terribly disheartened that this is how it's ended."
Bosley told 15 staff that the business was being placed into voluntary liquidation yesterday morning.
He spent the day ringing creditors and customers, cancelling bookings.
Staff had received their final pay, and liquidators would begin to value assets. The business had no bank loans but did owe creditors - an amount Bosley would not share.
A tough few years during the financial crisis, a slew of cancelled bookings, and the loss of his lease at the Port Nicholson Yacht Club prompted the final call.
Two years ago Bosley enlisted a strategic adviser to help with cost-cutting, and "made significant inroads" in repaying debt he had fallen into with creditors and Inland Revenue.
He began trying to "casualise" dining and find other revenue streams - including $30 fish and chip Sundays and launching a range of sauces.
But business never really picked up, and in December the yacht club advertised the lease on the premises - wanting to include more casual dining as part of its plan to rejuvenate the boat harbour precinct.
Bosley said he planned to put in a bid to retain it, but changed his mind last week when he discovered the yacht club had submitted its own proposal.
"I kind of had a suspicion that is what they were after all along, and that confirmed it for me . . . there wasn't a great deal of transparency. It was a bit mischievous."
Since the lease went out for tender, wedding bookings had been cancelled, and people were reluctant to book without knowing if the restaurant would still be there, Bosley said.
"It really just put the brakes on the business . . . I wouldn't say it was the catalyst, but the straw that broke the camel's back."
Customers and suppliers had been supportive, he said.
"People have said some kind things but you just feel like you've let a whole lot of people down. There's no joy in this moment, that's for sure. I'm sorry for the creditors I've left owing money to, I wish that wasn't the case."
Bosley wasn't sure what he would do next, likening the loss to losing his home.
"It's just a case of wrapping things up here and taking time to breathe . . . hopefully out of the chaos, something comes out of it."
Yacht club chief executive Dean Stanley said the club had spoken to Bosley in the past two years about a change of focus from fine dining. He rejected the idea they were "mischievous".
"We've always, throughout the whole process, been going to put in an option for how the club itself would run the space. It's not our core business. If the market comes up with something better than what we could do, then we'd run with that," Mr Stanley said. "We've thoroughly enjoyed our relationship with Martin over the years, and we are very saddened to see what has happened."
Restaurant association national president Mike Egan said the hospitality industry was always tough, and constantly changing. The leisurely, fine-dining experience had fallen out of favour with a time-poor society, and restaurants needed to adapt.
"Martin, I mean he'll come back. He's a fantastic chef. Just like any artist, they work out what's new and reinvent themselves. I have great confidence that this is not the end of Martin Bosley whatsoever."

Have solicitors been knocking at your doorstep?
Thu, 07 Aug 2014 03:29:16 GMT —
Janet Franken and her husband LaVerne say they've recently been bothered by solicitors at their home on Vermont Street in Quincy.
"They were trying to sell some magazine; the guy said he was from Australia," Janet Franken said.
The Franken's also said they saw a van pull up and drop off people who then dispersed through the neighborhood going door to door.
So, what are the laws when it comes to solicitation?
Quincy City Clerk Jenny Hayden says it's quite a process.
"They come in to this office, they fill out an application, we ask who they're working for, a background of themselves and the company they're working for, and they're also asked if they've been convicted of a felony,â?? Hayden said.
The city clerk will then define you as a solicitor or peddler.
"Anybody that is collecting money by the time they are at that door, they are considered a peddler, if they are not collecting money and the goods will be delivered later, then that is considered a solicitor,â?? Hayden said.
The clerkâ??s office writes around 60 permits a year.
The most common type of soliciting involves cleaning supplies or educational tools. She also says there have not been many problems when it comes to solicitors, but if you find them at your front door, just tell them you're not interested.
"If for some reason they felt very unsafe go ahead and call the non-emergency of 911, or if they feel their life's in danger call 911," Hayden also mentioned.
Itâ??s also beginning to be that time a year where the thin mints and peanut butter patties will be knocking on the door.
Not to worry, the girl scouts have to go through the same process as everyone else when it comes to going door to door.

Churchill baseball sweeps Carroll out of area round
Updated 12:44 am, Sunday, May 12, 2013
Joseph Dimaline hasn't pitched a great deal recently.
But when he gets the call, Churchill coach Chad Marshall knows the junior left-hander will deliver a solid performance.
Dimaline reaffirmed that faith as his gutsy seven-hit performance, coupled with Churchill's' three-run rally in the fifth inning, guided the Chargers to a 5-3 comeback victory and an area playoff best-of-3 series sweep of three-time Region IV champion Corpus Christi Carroll on Saturday afternoon at Judson.
Dimaline, who improved to 4-2, wasn't as dominant as John Shull, who pitched a three-hitter in Friday's 10-0 opening win. He was effective, and that was all that mattered.
Sports Channel
"(Dimaline) really gutted it out," Marshall said. "He gave us a chance to win."
Churchill (30-4), which plays Johnson in the third round, didn't have it nearly as easy in Game 2 as Carroll (25-12) put runners on base every inning but the seventh.
Dimaline did his part to bail his team out of trouble. In addition to striking out six batters without a walk, he let the defense make plays behind him.
Despite committing three errors, the defense came up with several clutch plays, including left fielder Ian Furlong's leaping catch at the wall in the third.
"I wanted to come out and help us move on," Dimaline said. "I didn't want us to go three games. I wanted to go home and get some sleep.
"I had control of my pitches. When you have control of your pitches, it makes it easier. I went out there and let my team compete."
Butt the Chargers had to pull off some late heroics after Carroll built a 3-1 lead by taking advantage of a balk and fielding error in the third, and an RBI double from Zach Alaniz in the fourth.
Churchill's big moment came in the fifth.
Furlong and Justin Kemp started off with singles, and Zane Gurwtiz was hit by a pitch to load the bases.
Furlong scored on a groundout, and Johnny Whalen followed with an RBI single to tie it at 3-all. Gurwitz then came home with the go-ahead run on a groundout.
Churchill added another run in the sixth on a wild pitch that followed a Carroll throwing error.
With the two-run cushion, Dimaline finished off the victory by retiring the Tigers in order.
"We didn't worry when we got behind," Dimaline said. "Everyone on this team has been in these situations. Everyone is playing for each other."

Woodland Hills, CA, United States, 2013/08/30 - The Sybase Capture Pack is the latest addition to Metrons Capture Pack library - Sybase.com / Metron-Athene.com.
The Sybase Capture Pack captures a range of detailed Sybase metrics to use alongside capacity and performance data from all other sources centralized in the athene® CMIS (Capacity Management Information Store).
Sybase performance data captured shows how busy each database server is and how much different users are contributing to that workload. Storage metrics are incorporated to show how much disk storage is being consumed at the database and table levels.
Rich Fronheiser Chief Marketing Officer at Metron commented Our Sybase Capture Pack captures data on Global, Database, Table and User. All this data is used to proactively manage capacity across all Sybase servers in the enterprise. By seamlessly capturing and centralizing all Sybase and other performance and capacity data in athene®'s CMIS, you benefit from all the metrics necessary for effective capacity management being in one place, available for reporting, analysis and dashboard presentation using a single application.

Looking at performance and capacity challenges from all possible angles, 360°Capacity Management, gives Organizations the ability to properly meet their service level agreements and meet capacity managements mission of providing adequate capacity at controlled costs, both now and in the future.
Rich Fronheiser added Being able to look at Sybase data with all other capacity data is another example of our 360° Capacity Management strategy in practice. If you are only looking at subsets of capacity data then there are performance issues that are going to be missed. We recommend this holistic view, where cause and effect can be quickly seen and understood.

Trinity County is a county located in the northwestern portion of the U.S. state of California. As of the 2010 census, the population was 13,786, making it the fourth-least populous county in California. The county seat and largest community is Weaverville.
Trinity County is rugged, mountainous, heavily forested, and lies along the Trinity River within the Salmon/Klamath Mountains. The county has no traffic lights, no freeways, no parking meters, or no incorporated cities. It did not have a chain store or restaurant until 1999, when Burger King, Movie Gallery (closed), Longs Drugs (now CVS/pharmacy), and Subway opened for business.
Weaverville, the county seat, has the distinction of housing some of California's oldest buildings. The courthouse, built in 1856, is the second oldest in the state, and the Weaverville Drug Store has been filling prescriptions since 1852. The Joss House is an historic Taoist temple built in 1873.
The county takes its name from the Trinity River, named in 1845 by Major Pierson B. Reading, who was under the mistaken impression that the river emptied into Trinidad Bay. Trinity is the English translation of Trinidad.
Trinity County was one of the original counties of California, created in 1850 at the time of statehood. Parts of the county were given to Klamath County in 1852 and to Humboldt County in 1853.

text: My husband gave me this camera for Christmas. I am still trying to get a good picture with it My son's panasonic lumix DMC-FH20 takes MUCH better pictures I can have the living room light on and the flash pops up and yet there still seems to be a shadow in the middle of the picture. So, usually on the face of whom I am shooting. I am ready to throw it in the closet and buy a Lumix. Please help me... Thanks so much

Following yesterday's QOTD on your worst ever marathon, the logical follow up to that might be, what was your best ever marathon? But since we're all headed to Boston, a more appropriate QOTD may be: Why Boston? What draws you to this iconic event? Are you drawn in particular in response to last year's attack on the Boston Marathon? Is it its history and longevity that appeal to you? The crowd support for the event? The qualification requirement? The superb organization? You can probably run in a 26.2 mile race within a few hours of where you live at least a half-dozen times a year, and without the anguish of trying to qualify and the expense of travelling to, and staying in, Boston.
For me, at least, as a native Bostonian, I grew up unaware that there were any other other marathons. I first became aware of its significance the year that Ron Hill won in the face of a driving Nor-easter (1970). In those days it was not a mass participation race and running Boston was beyond the imagination of most observers. But from the time I started running seriously a few years ago after years of recreational running, there was only race that really mattered. And yes, like many, I'm coming back this year in part because of last year's attacks, but that isn't what draws me to the Boston Marathon, which rises above all others in terms of its history, its drama, the special place it claims on the running calendar and the affection which it holds for runners, spectators and area residents alike. They say that on St Patrick's Day that everyone is Irish, but on Patriots Day, everyone is a Bostonian.
Have a great day everyone! Off to the gym again for me today - I'm making progress albeit slower than I would like.

With three weeks until the wedding, our numbers are in, we are working on all the fun logistics like seating charts and who will sit where, but there is a deep nagging feeling of disappointment when I look at our list.
Warning: slightly ranty pity party for one ahead.
Now, I knew ahead of time that you typically get 20% declines of all the invitations you send, and that is exactly what we got. We sent out 124 invitations, and we got 25 "declines with regret" or just plain old "no" from those who couldn't be bothered to mail back the response card that has a self-addressed stamped envelope included, and we had to spend hours tracking them down—seriously rude. How hard is it to check a box and put it in the mail? Or even better the ones who respond yes, and then text that they can't make it. GRRR. (/rant) Sorry. I really do get that life happens and unexpected things occur, and our wedding isn't nearly as big a deal to anyone else as it is to us, but it just stings.
