Simple the Best Picture of Any TV
Pros: Black Levels, Color, Detail, 3D
Cons: Off axis viewing angle, lack of discrete remote codes
The best TV money (and granted, a lot of money) can buy. The picture is gorgeous and the blacks match or beat that of the renowned Kuro sets. I originally thought the 3D feature would be an unused feature, but the 3D quality and brightness makes the TV even better.

Wild winds wreaked havoc in Central Texas.
Wind gusts of 50 mph knocked down trees and power lines Monday, even bricks had a difficult time standing up to the wind.
Winds caused compost piles to ignite near Austin-Bergstrom Airport, trees fell on power lines causing thousands of homes to lose power, and in North Austin high winds toppled bricks off the side of a business complex.
On Monday afternoon at 2, the tin roof at Creedmoor Country Grocery store partially blew off and came in contact with a few power lines. Power was lost in the store while people were inside. The manager closed down the store. No injuries were reported.
Just driving proved dangerous. The winds flipped several 18-wheelers onto their sides. At around 4:40 p.m., SH 130 was closed at Highway 79 due to an overturned 18-wheeler.
Travis County Fire Rescue officials said the service road on SH I30 and I-45 in Mustang Ridge had to be shut down around 5:35 p.m. because of another overturned 18-wheeler. No injuries were reported in either incident.
Viewers sent in pictures of the wind damage to their homes and backyards.

So I made two withdrawal request both for 750.00 USD on July 25 2013 the first wasnt approved till September 3rd
and they made the second request start all over again dating it September 3rd and it still hasn't been approved and I still haven't received any payment
The answers I have gotten range from "we are experiencing many requests we will get to yours soon" I was even told there was a "security issue" I have no idea what that means all my documents were approved!!
It seems like they just do not like to pay more than a person has gambled
It will be well over three months before I receive my whole payout
So if you do not mind waiting a long time for payout...........enjoy POC
So, Palace of Chance now has a bright green light for their casino now? I'm not convinced at all that I would revisit this casino for all that it's worth in the past and I don't need to either because apparently they cannot allow Canadians on this online casino anymore. Palace of Chance swept me up on their feet for a cool 200% match bonus to play on their casino. I didn't question as to whether or not they were reputable because 200% bonus sounds not only convincing but I never knew it at the time that Palace of Chance was indeed part of the horrendous group of blacklisted casinos. I matched my $25 deposit to get $75, tried to wager it all on Real series slots, the oldest ones that are still out to this very day like Cleopatra's Gold and Achilles for $1 a spin, sometimes adjusting the values lower or higher by one level. I've seen many slots give eye catching results but the slots in Palace of Chance paid out very poorly. I throw in dollars and out came a few cents lower than $0.40. Each and every time the slots chewed my bets by nearly 60%. I know people would say that they're games of chance, to risk something for a reward but to be forced to surrender my balance on this crappy casino, there is more than just ugly payouts going on. This isn't the first time I had terrible experience on a casino, there are much more that makes a six star luxury resort look like an abandoned recycling plant filled with rodents. The support back then has been very slow last I talked to them about the WR but without any winnings to make from this casino I didn't bother putting in my documents for a healthy sum of winnings. All I can say for this Blacklisted casino gone good..... players just be sure to proceed with caution. Who knows what will happen after a green light? Maybe you might lose your cash over to someone who uses vulnerability to get what they want. Be careful with this casino!
Palace of Chance gave me my birthday bonus. I had to play 30 x the bonus. I have played the ninja slot and despite the remarkable manipulation I've stopped several times the bonus and thus won. After changing to other slots is the same thing happens and I have the 30 x managed.
The fun game I've had. When it came to the payment of my profits they have lowered him to the maximum of the bonus conditions. I want to pay this maximum to my account, but this was rejected.
I think the casino untrustworthy.
When I first started out with Palace of Chance I did not have any idea that they were a rogued casino. Now this is before I met with both Casinomeister and AskGamblers, my sources for accredited casinos as well as rogued casinos. Palace of Chance had an offer before for a $50 No deposit chip but I can see they still have this bonus up until now. If I remember correctly I was not able to take up another no deposit chip because Palace of Chance and Club Player are in the same group so instead I blindedly (had no knowledge they were rogued) made a deposit. I just attempted to make a slightly higher than minimum deposit ($43). If they were broadcasted world wide or if they were "Big" as in they were a popular brand like Walmart or Starbucks or Party Casino then a bigger deposit would have come up. Most of my bets were 3 or 4 coins give and take ($0.75 / $1 bets for 25 Paylines Real Series slots or $0.60 / $0.80 on 20 Paylines Real Series slots) towards Caesars Empire, Achilles, Treasure Chamber, Warlocks Spell and T-Rex were my slots. They were all played at a very short period of time because $43 wasn't going to last as long as opposed to having something large like $100. Once I saw a string of "no returned" wins or if wins were less than my bets than that's my signal to try a different slot. Within an hour I had nothing left. Every bet I placed was being absorbed like a sponge because they were little to no wins coming out. I can't say I was a fool because this is what any player would do. I didn't know they were rogued or roguish. Some of us have sources but for me I started with none.
If only I found these affiliate websites earlier then my course of action would be different.....to avoid them altogether. But now here in 2013 even though Club Player has a Green Light instead of a Red Flag I am not allowed to venture into the once dark casino that I once stepped into. If anything I do not want to come back anyways. There are now better, more accredited Real Time Gaming casinos out there that will gladly welcome me with a warm meal and special entertainment (Match bonuses, Free Chips, loyalty, you know....the good stuff.). I only regret that Palace of Chance ended terribly and that I cannot make a good ending stay that way because Palace of Chance does not allow us Canadian players to revisit them....not that I wanted to go back. They were rogued that first allowed us Canadians in and now that they are restoring their casino to good health we cannot enter. That's pretty shocking to hear! A 1 out of 10 for Palace of Chance!
So – Palace of Chance has been put back in the green. Palace of Chance or sometimes also referred to as ….or abbreviated as…. POC.
POC was listed as a rogue casino on Askg. But I see the group has recently been recommended again.
I was quite surprised to see over a dozen complaints resolved . So Maybe its time to give Palace of Chance another chance….
Palace of Chance was among one of the 1st groups of RTG casinos that I had initially installed when I discovered the joys of online gaming. *evil laugh*. I recently uninstalled this software and all of its affiliates but now I have found myself re-installing the software.
I have made a deposit before into this casino. Unfortunately I have not managed to HIT a BIG FAT JACKPOT WIN to request a withdrawal so I can't really say how long the withdrawal process takes now. But I'm interested to find out.
What I do remember about this casino was sending though my verification documents to have my gaming account verified some time ago and was asked to resend them again and again. The other affiliated casinos under the same group called the Virtual Casino Group also sent me the exact same request whenever I opened the software.
I also discovered the rules of 'no 2 free chips in a row' via this casino. I did have a quick read of another askg members review about their experience regarding tournaments.
I think from what I have played with some of the free chips. After you have made a playthrough on a free chip its best to check the cashier every now and then just to see how far you are?
I had an experience before where I bought I tournament, won the tournament. But before any of that I had played a free chip and made the playthrough. The software automatically took whatever was over that MAX amount, that you allowed to cashout – I only noticed when my big balance suddenly decreased.
I then played a bit more to make up the MAX cashout amount again and did make that and abit more.
I went straight to the cashier and requested the MAX cashout allowed. With whatever was left I bought a tournament and won.
With my tourneys winnings I then played a few days later and then I won more and requested a 2nd withdrawal. After sending through docs and waiting… forever.
I was denied all withdrawals and the rest of my win from the tourney was removed from my account. The argument – you can't buy into a tournament when playing a free chip.
BUT - I have noticed that RTG software displays as balance of 0.00 when you log into the tournament lobby. If you are playing on a coupon with a playthrough requirement and have a balance that is, of course not yet withdrawable.
So be careful of that. It seems the best way to cashout from a free chip is to cashout the MAX amount. Wait for the withdrawal then deposit and play again. To avoid the frustration, of rules, clauses and whatever else.
Most RTG platforms set their software to NOT accept 2 free chips in a row. You receive a coupon denied/expired message. If, Palace of Chance did that kind of setting on their RTG platform.
Maybe it will resolve a big percentage of the complaints.
Who knows… So.
I'm giving POC another try and I will let you know.... ;-)

mercinova: **INFORMATION REMOVED FOR SECURITY PURPOSES**
Ron: Welcome! thanks for the information, how may I assist you today? :)
mercinova: Can you help me find the rules and regulations for the free tournaments?
Ron: Allow me a moment whilst I pull up your account please..
mercinova: I was told by another agent that it is required of a player to make an initial deposit before playing FreeRoll Tournaments, but I can't find that rule anywhere...
Ron: What do you mean
Ron: For your reference here's a link to the terms and conditions page of our website:
Ron: http://www.palaceofchance.com/rules/promotional-rules/
Ron: •Free Roll Tournaments are Tournaments which do not require that players pay a registration fee.
Ron: •Any winnings from Free Roll Slot Tournaments may be used to play in real money casino games. These winnings are subject to a minimum withdrawal amount of $100 and a maximum witdrawal amount of $1,000.
mercinova: The last agent told me I had to have made a deposit prior to entering the FreeRoll tournament. Is that not true?
mercinova: He removed my winnings.
Ron: You are playing from a free chip and it is not allowed for tournaments
Ron: Note: tournaments are not allowed to play with any comp, chips or cashbacks...
mercinova: I'm not using a free chip.
mercinova: What code is active on my account?
Ron: You did used it to join the tournament that is why
Ron: No code is active
mercinova: The entry fee was free. How could I use a NDB to enter?
Ron: You cannot
mercinova: rather...How did I use a NDB to enter if the entry was free?
Ron: Excuse me/
Ron: ?
mercinova: Are you saying that the last bonus I used was a No Deposit Bonus and that excluded me from the FreeRoll Tournaments?
Ron: Yes you could not join a tournament the tournament you joined it was not free
mercinova: It said the entry fee was $0.00.
mercinova: I'll send you a screen shot if you want...
mercinova: Cost: $0.00 ($0.00 + $0.00)
Ron: You actually requested it to be removed
mercinova: from the casino
Ron: Because you were explained it was not cashable
mercinova: Yes...I did...exactly. I was told that it wasn't cashable because I used a Free Chip to play...which wasn't true.
mercinova: I'm not asking for it back.
Ron: Ok what is it that you are asking?
mercinova: I don't care. I just want to clarify whether I can play FreeRoll Tournaments for cashable winnings without depositing?
Ron: No I am afraid you will have to make a deposit
Ron: You already received a free chip
Ron: Two in a row is not allowed
mercinova: Ok. Now please answer...if I had not used a free chip, would I have been able to play the FreeRoll Tournaments for cashable winnings without making an initial deposit?
info: Please wait while I transfer the chat to 'Bryan'.
info: Hi! Thank you for using our LiveChat Service. This is 'Bryan'. Please verify your Email and Phone Number so that I can assist you.
mercinova: **INFORMATION REMOVED FOR SECURITY PURPOSES**
Bryan: Thank You =) Please allow me a moment so I can check that for you
mercinova: Please Note. All transpiring chat is being recorded and uploaded to a Casino Review Website.
Bryan: When you opened the account you used a free chip as the first transaction, You cannot enter a free tournament after using a free chip since that is considered a free no deposit bonus
Bryan: Therefore the winnings from that tournament were removed
mercinova: If I had not used a free chip, would I have been able to play the FreeRoll Tournaments for cashable winnings without making an initial deposit?
Bryan: That is what happened in your case
mercinova: Can you please answer my question...
mercinova: If I had not used a free chip, would I have been able to play the FreeRoll Tournaments for cashable winnings without making an initial deposit?
Bryan: Yes since it would of been only one no deposit bonus used on the account
Bryan: But since you used the free chip before you would need to make a deposit before using another no deposit bonus
mercinova: So...FreeRoll Tournaments are considered No Deposit Bonuses?
Bryan: Yes that is correct
mercinova: So playing FreeRoll Tournaments flag your account as a FreeChip Account?
Bryan: Yes since it is a no deposit play
mercinova: Are you saying that you can only play ONE FreeRoll Tournament, before making a deposit?
mercinova: Sorry to be redundant, but I really need this clarified.
mercinova: Furthermore, does making an intial deposit remove this restriction permanently or is it a free chip, deposit, free chip, deposit turnaround?
Bryan: Like I have explained before yes only one free no deposit bonus is allowed when you sign up
mercinova: I promise the last question will be the last...lol. I apologize for the redundancy and frustration.
Bryan: Sure what would that be
mercinova: If I make a deposit, then play a FreeRoll Tournament. Do I need to make another deposit before I can play another FreeRoll Tournament?
mercinova: In other words...do I need to make a deposit after each FreeRoll Tournament?
Bryan: Yes since it is only one free roll per deposit
mercinova: Thank You! That's what I was trying to get at this whole time.
Bryan: Sure anytime
Bryan: Would you like my help on anything else?
mercinova: Now that the word "FREE" has been redefined. Thank You for your time and patience. Have a Great FREE Life!
Enough Said!
Palace of Chance
We as gamblers like to gamble for the "chance" that we will win big. We gamble on the "chance" that we will be one of the lucky few who hit the Jackpot. As gamblers there is a lot of things that are left up to chance, there is a chance the next spin can trigger a progressive, or random jackpot, there is a chance that the next spin on roulette the ball will land on your number, there is a chance that the 10 numbers you picked in Keno will all be picked, there is a chance that the next hand you will be dealt is blackjack, there is a chance that the next hand we get dealt in video poker is a royal flush, or four aces, there is a chance that the poker tournament that you entered, in the hopes you would just place in the money, but there is always the chance you win that tournament, the list of potential chance situations that gamblers deal with on an a day to day, hour to hour, minute to minute, second to second basis, unfortunately the house is designed to win and take your money, but there are the few lucky people out there that do win. There is one situation a gambler, especially a person who has deposited their hard earned money and ended up winning, and the situation that should never be left up to chance is whether or not you get paid by the casino. ESPECIALLY when you abide by every rule and term and condition they lay out. Unfortunately this casino gives you a poor chance of getting paid, the money you earned and deserve. They offered me a $65 dollar free chip through email. It was from some random email, which is shady that they don't contact you directly. I never made the play through on this chip and I would never ever deposit a cent at this casino. They have a poor review when it comes to paying its customers. They are part of the Slots of Vegas, Cool Cat, Cirrus, Cirrus UK, Wilde Vegas etc… group, and its places like this that make people more skeptical to play at an online casino.
My 2cents: Don't even use the free chip they offer, if you really want to play, play with play money, at least then you have something to show for if you won lol.

Game's up.
Investors have heard the boy cry wolf too many times in the nation's capital. And they aren't falling for it this time.
There was no panicked selling in the stock market over the federal government's temporary shutdown.
The government began closing about a third of its operations Tuesday, and investors went their merry way and ignored it. The Dow Jones industrial average rose 62 points to 15,191 despite the shutdown.
The expectation is that politicians will stage their dramatics for a while longer, but within a few days this dysfunctional crew will cobble some solution together to keep the government running and make sure the government's bills are paid. About 800,000 workers who are going on furlough will be brought back to their government jobs and receive back pay. Contracts will get paid, and government business will start up again as usual.
If investors are correct about this benign scenario, there will be little long-term impact on the economy or stocks. Investors have seen the debt-battle script performed repeatedly since the August 2011 feud over the nation's borrowing and a downgrade by Standard & Poor's sent stocks down about 7 percent in a day. Since then, neither mandatory budget cuts under "sequestration" nor Jan. 1's "fiscal cliff" has delivered the dire consequences threatened by grandstanders.
The investors who panicked and sold stocks amid the theater over the nation's debts missed solid recoveries in the stock market soon after. Since Congress agreed on a last-minute deal to extend the debt ceiling in 2011, the Dow Jones industrial average has climbed about 41 percent.
With all the last-minute deals in mind from the past two years, investors have not responded much to the threat of the current shutdown. During the week leading up to Tuesday's shutdown, the stock market declined about 2.5 percent as investors secured some of the 18 percent gains they had earned in the stock market this year. But the general response has been to hold on and ignore the politicians.
"We do not expect to see long-term damage to the economy from a shutdown — particularly one lasting less than seven days," said JPMorgan strategist Thomas Lee. "And most investors tend to agree."
In the 18 shutdowns since 1976, stock market losses during shutdowns of eight days or less have been no greater than about 2 percent, Lee said. If the shutdown lasts longer, uncertainty builds, but even the worst declines have only been as great as 4.4 percent, and sometimes there have been no losses. On average, stocks decline just 0.8 percent during shutdowns and climb 2.8 percent 90 days after the shutdown.
Yet, the current debate is only the opening act in a longer drama. The next act could be more unnerving. Congress will be asked around mid-October to extend the nation's debt ceiling.
In the worst-case scenario, investors worldwide could lose confidence in the U.S. to pay investors in Treasury bonds, and that would make it more difficult for the U.S. to borrow money at affordable prices. Ultimately, higher borrowing costs would aggravate the country's debt problems and put more pressure on the U.S. to make cuts in services or raise taxes.
So as the deadline approaches to raise the debt ceiling around Oct. 17, investors are expected to be less sanguine. While that could cause more upheaval in the stock market than investors have seen so far, most analysts think politicians will act in enough time to prevent the feared government default on payments to investors in U.S. bonds. And while the U.S. already is being mocked in some of the foreign press for the debt spat, analysts think it's unlikely that global markets will lose confidence in Treasurys.
The U.S. government has more leeway now to cover its debts than officials are letting on, said Jim Bianco, president of Bianco Research.
Even if Congress doesn't extend the debt limit by late October and the government temporarily isn't allowed to sell additional bonds to cover its obligations, Bianco figures that the government will have enough tax revenue to make its payments to bondholders on time and avoid panicking markets.
He figures the government will need to pay about $25 billion a month on its debts, while taking in about $150 billion to $170 billion in taxes that can be devoted to those payments. On a longer-term basis, the government must grapple with all its expenses, including about $70 billion for Social Security and $30 billion for the military, said Bianco, but in the short term the government "can prioritize" without a default.
Bianco thinks analysts have done the math and that's why there has been little fear in the markets about the U.S. defaulting on bond payments.
Meanwhile, he figures that as the deadline for extending the debt limit draws near, all it will take is a 300- to 400-point drop in the stock market to stop the feuding and get an agreement that will get the nation through the most recent funding hump. He credits a slide in the stock market at the end of December for political leaders "freaking and putting together a deal in a few hours" to avoid the fiscal cliff Jan. 1.

I worked at NRG UK full-time for more than 3 years
Pros – Well i was lucky enough to run scotland for the Indirect Operations of NRG, we had a fantastic team who looked after each other, we fed from one and other and most of all we hit our targets and i also had some fantastic dealers in Scotland
Cons – the only con would have been lack of tech support in the scottish region and the fact our board in Japan were working from figures and not really getting a foothold on the economic downturn that Britain was heading into at that time!!!
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

Loved that it was Made in America, BPA-free, and recyclable!
The water bottles were used as table decorations for our luncheon and then guests could take them home. They were well received.
The water bottles were a great way to motivate our students to read! Thanks for a great, affordable product.
We bought these water bottles along with drawstring cooler bags and pens as family gifts for our son's first birthday. It was such a hit as Hawaii is always warm. It gave many of our baseball and soccer moms relief to have something convenient to use on out hot summer days and quenched the thirst of their children. We often get asked if we have extra bags and bottles as they have been used so much they want to replace it.

Premium Authentic Mexican Day of the Dead Craft Beer Line Sees Strong U.S. Market Reception
LOS ANGELES, Feb. 13, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Drinks Americas (OTC: DKAM; "Drinks Americas" or the "Company"), the exclusive United States broker for leading premium authentic Mexican beers currently present in over 32 states, today issued an industry and company update, commenting on market and sector growth, business progress made in 2013, and growth plans for 2014.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20131203/NY26893)
Craft brewing niche, over the past few years, has made tremendous strides in securing an increasingly competitive and lasting position within the nation's beer market. According to the Industry, the 2012 growth of the craft brewing industry was recorded at 15% by volume and 17% by dollars, compared to 2011 growth of 13% by volume and 15% by dollars. Overall U.S. beer sales and imported beer sales were up an estimated 0.9% and 1.0% by volume in 2012, respectively. 2012 craft brewing sales represented 6.5% by volume and 10.2% by dollars. Craft brewer retail dollar value in 2012 was an estimated $11.9 billion.
While the Pacific Northwest and California have been the first to welcome and support craft brewing, the craze is catching on across the nation, in towns big and small. Drinks Americas is the first and exclusive provider of authentic Mexican craft beer to this budding and thirsty market. Recently its Day of the Dead craft beer line was featured on the cover of top travel and culinary magazine SAVUER and listed in the Top 100 of the hottest worldwide brands.
In the past six months, the Company has focused its investment and sales efforts into introducing its premium authentic Mexican Day of the Dead craft beer line to this emerging U.S. market. In the last six months, the Company effectively penetrated 32 markets/states and achieved 20% market penetration. With 60,000 cases of Day of the Dead sold in the second half of 2013, Drinks Americas expects to sell 180,000 cases in 2014.
Joseph Belli, VP of Sales for Day of the Dead craft beer, commented, "In order to achieve its 2014 forecasted sales, Drinks Americas must further penetrate its 32 current markets, expand our distributor and retail network. Also on the agenda is the expansion of Mexican Day of the Dead into new and opportunistic markets such as Texas and California, which represents 30% of the American craft beer market and the continued expansion of brewery Cerveceria Mexicana."
On the subject of its other premium Mexican beers, Timothy Owens, CEO of Drinks Americas, stated, "With the exceptional success seen in the launch of the entire line of Day of the Dead craft beer in 2013 and expected success in 2014, the Company is exploring ways to repeat the recipe with its other brands starting with Mexicali, its brand of Mexican light and dark beer that dates back to 1923. Being that Mexico is birthplace of chocolate, in commemoration, Drinks Americas and Mexicali will be launching its new flavor Chocolate Stout in October 2014."
Mr. Owens added, "The Company is confident that creative and promotional marketing across social media, within restaurants via menu placement and through promotional events such as beer tastings and trade shows, will aid in our efforts to grow each of our Mexican beer brands into leading brands throughout the nation. In addition, continued recognition of premium Day of the Dead craft beer by well-respected international culinary critics, such as SAVEUR magazine, who recently named it 34 out of 100 hottest worldwide brands, is something Drinks Americas remains focused on pursuing."

Bernhard Gerwert appointed new CEO of Cassidian
Leiden, 03 September 2012
Bernhard Gerwert, 59, has been appointed Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Cassidian and Member of the EADS Executive Committee with immediate effect. He will succeed Stefan Zoller, 54, who has decided to leave EADS in order to pursue new professional challenges. Stefan Zoller has led the Group's defence and security Division since 2005.
"I want to thank Stefan Zoller for his dedication to EADS and for nearly two decades of strong personal engagement in and for our industry. Under his leadership, Cassidian succeeded in improving significantly its profitability in a difficult market environment. Stefan also laid the foundation for future business growth by furthering the internationalisation of Cassidian. I wish him all the best for the future," said Tom Enders, CEO of EADS.
Bernhard Gerwert assumes his new duties with a proven track record of more than two decades in the aerospace and defence industry. He has served in various senior management functions of the EADS Group as well as its German predecessor companies. Since 2011, he has been the Chief Operating Officer (COO) of Cassidian, overseeing all business activities within the Division. Previously, from 2007 to 2011, he headed the Cassidian business units Air Systems and the Defence Electronics business unit from 2004 to 2007.
"As for the succession, we did not have to look far. There could not have been a better choice than Bernhard Gerwert. His knowledge of the Group as well as the defence and security business is second-to-none. It is imperative that we focus our efforts on those areas where we can deliver consistent revenues with strong margins. Bernhard has repeatedly proven his outstanding managerial skills, his credibility and standing inside and outside the Group is excellent. He not only has my full support but also that of the entire Board of Directors for this challenging job. Bernhard will provide Cassidian with the necessary new directions and impulses," Enders said.
About EADS
EADS is a global leader in aerospace, defence and related services. In 2011, the Group – comprising Airbus, Astrium, Cassidian and Eurocopter – generated revenues of € 49.1 billion and employed a workforce of over 133,000.

New York Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter made his Grapefruit League debut on Thursday and went 0-for-2 at the plate while playing five innings in the field in an 8-2 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates.
The 39-year-old Jeter, who played in only 17 games last season because of a fractured ankle and leg problems, grounded into a double play his first time up against Pirates starter Charlie Morton and grounded out to third base against left-hander Jeff Locke in his second at-bat. Jeter batted second in the order behind outfielder Brett Gardner.
In the field, Jeter's only action was a tag at second base on a stolen base attempt.
--Right-hander Zack Greinke made just four pitches against two batters in his spring-training debut on Thursday for the Los Angeles Dodgers before leaving the Cactus League game against the Arizona Diamondbacks with a calf injury.
Greinke landed awkwardly while making a pitch to Arizona second baseman Cliff Pennington in the first inning and was limping after throwing another pitch. Dodgers trainer Stan Conte and manager Don Mattingly came to the mound and Greinke attempted several warm-up tosses before he left the game and headed to the clubhouse.
The injury, which Greinke described as feeling like a cramp, was diagnosed as a mild calf strain. He had been scheduled to pitch two innings.
The Dodgers went on to lose to a Diamondbacks split squad 4-3.
"I just felt something in my calf," Greinke said, according to MLB.com. "Just try to take care of it this early in spring. Hopefully, it's not a big deal. I think it's minor. We'll see in a couple of days. Right now, I don't feel too bad."
---Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Ryan Braun wasted no time letting everyone know that he is back. After serving a 65-game suspension at the end of the 2013 season as part of the Biogenesis performance-enhancing drugs scandal, Braun smacked a two-run homer in his first at-bat on Thursday in the Brewers' Cactus League opener against the Oakland Athletics in Phoenix.
The 30-year-old Braun, who played in just 61 games last year because of the suspension and injuries, smacked an 0-and-1 pitch from Oakland starter Tommy Milone over the wall in the left-field corner in the first inning.
---New Cincinnati manager Bryan Price plans to have the Reds run more. And he's not just talking about leadoff man Billy Hamilton.
"What we're going to do is open things up in spring training," Price said.
The Reds were 10th in the National League stolen bases last year. With Hamilton in the lineup, that is going to go up given he stole 155 bases in the minors two years ago. But Price wants shortstop Zack Cozart and third baseman Todd Frazier to run as well. Cozart, who stole 30 bases in 34 attempts in Triple-A in 2010, did not attempt a steal last year. Frazier, who stole 17 in 21 attempts in 2011 at Triple-A, stole six in 11 tries last year.
---St. Louis Cardinals left-hander Jaime Garcia, who has missed significant time in the last two seasons because of shoulder problems, leading to labrum and rotator cuff surgery last May, probably will not be ready at the start of this season either.
Garcia, after experiencing discomfort following a throwing session before the exhibition season began, saw two doctors and then got a cortisone shot for his shoulder before returning to camp. But when he will pitch again is uncertain.
The 27-year-old Garcia is 39-25 in his Cardinals career, including 5-2 last year before he went on the disabled list, and is in the midst of a four-year contract that will pay him $7.75 million this year, $9.25 million next year, with team options of $11.5 million and $12 million for 2016-17.

Certified Meeting Professionals, while mostly satisfied with the value of their professional designation, are looking for improvements to the program, according to the first survey of current and past CMPs commissioned by the Convention Industry Council, a meetings-industry umbrella organization that administers the CMP.
When asked what they felt was missing from the CMP experience, 52 percent of survey respondents said online training and 37 percent said an advanced-level CMP designation; 34 percent wanted more local events. In addition, 46 percent of respondents indicated they would like CIC to offer advanced-level CMP classes.
The survey, conducted by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Survey and Research Center for the CIC, gauged 917 individuals — 77 percent planners and 23 percent suppliers — on their satisfaction with the CMP program and their recommendations for its future.
CIC relies primarily on its member organizations, including Meeting Professionals International and the Professional Convention Management Association, to provide training and continuing education for the CMP program, says Manju Mathai, marketing associate for CIC. "We have passed these findings to our member organizations."
As for an advanced-level CMP designation, Mathai says it is under consideration by the CIC and the CMP boards. "With such an overwhelming interest from respondents … and with so many CMPs with 11 years' experience or more [88 percent of the respondents], we think it is definitely something to take into consideration."
Another highlight from the study: 84 percent of CMPs say that they plan to recertify every five years for the duration of their careers. This is a significant jump from CIC's actual renewal rate of 65 percent. Respondents who did not plan to renew said cost and continuing-education requirements were the main barriers.
Other Key Findings:
Most respondents (82 percent) say that they are "extremely satisfied" or "satisfied" with the value received from their CMP.
The top reasons respondents decide to become a CMP are personal satisfaction (85 percent), to increase their value to an employer (72 percent), and to gain general knowledge (60 percent).
Industry recognition (85 percent) and sense of personal achievement (82 percent) ranked as the top two factors in decisions to recertify.
Of the planners who participated in the survey, 28 percent work in associations, 23 percent work in corporate environments, and 21 percent work as independents or consultants, with planners from third parties, government, medical, and other fields making up the balance.
West Coast Fast Lanes
San Francisco Inter-national Airport in mid-September opened Registered Traveler lanes designed to speed enrolled travelers through airport security, the first airport on the West Coast to do so.

- Indianapolis
- Little Rock, Ark.
- New York's JFK
- Newark, N.J.
- Orlando, Fla.

Recently, more than 30 high school and elementary teachers from around the state attended Tennessee Tech's Eisenhower Workshop for Foreign Language Teachers. French and Spanish teachers immersed themselves in a week of creating and sharing new materials for their classrooms. Participants learned about using technology, designing web pages and using the Internet -- all while striving to speak as much as possible in their language of study.
"The annual workshop is intended to bring together teachers at various skill levels, from entry-level to native speakers," said Phillip Campana, chairperson of Tennessee Tech's department of foreign languages. "The goal is to produce and share practical materials that work in the classroom; teachers seldom have time to work on special projects during the school year."
Upperman High School's John Apple and Cookeville High School's Brian Miesch, both Spanish teachers, joined classmates in using the latest technology to develop new teaching materials. Participants worked with computers, a digital camera, a studio video camera, videocassette recorders, videodisc players and satellite television feeds of foreign language channels to improve their own skills and create effective classroom projects.
Teachers also visited Tennessee Tech's 21st Century Instructional Classroom and Cookeville High School's new language lab and spent time learning about the new "National Standards for Foreign Language Learning: Preparing for the 21st Century," program.
"The success of each workshop is lasting," Campana explained. "Participants report they have used the materials they developed and the ideas they shared for years after the workshop was over."Instructors included Tennessee Tech foreign language professors Juanita Shettlesworth and Kenneth Kintz. The workshop was funded by a grant from the Eisenhower Program through the Tennessee Higher Education Commission.

Lee relieved after cutting DPMM lead
Home United coach Lee Lim-saeng was a relieved man on Sunday after his side moved five points behind Great Eastern-YEO's S.League leaders DPMM FC.
Despite going behind to Courts Young Lions after just four minutes in Sunday's game at the Bishan Stadium, the Protectors equalised ten minutes later through Firdaus Idros, before going on to grab all three points thanks to Frederic Mendy's second-half brace.
Having seen DPMM move eight points clear at the top on Thursday after beating Balestier Khalsa 3-1, Lee admits it was important for Home to remain within touching distance of the Bruneian outfit.
"We couldn't afford to drop more points tonight [Sunday] because we are looking to catch up with DPMM," the ex-Korea Republic international admitted.
"Before the match, they were ahead of us by eight points and it was imperative that we got the win.
"Fortunately, we achieved that and that was down to the players."
Despite looking extremely frustrated by the touchline throughout the game, Lee rubbished suggestions he was unhappy with his team's performance, and reveals he feels for the players who have had a hectic fixture schedule owing to their participation in the AFC Cup.
"I don't want to blame any of the players," Lee added. "I understand they are all very fatigued from playing so many games in quick succession.
"In the end, we managed to grind out the win and that is what's important."
Young Lions coach Robin Chitrakar admitted his side's early goal didn't particularly help their cause as it gave Home a chance to react and hit back shortly after, although he wasn't expecting anything less from a side with such quality.
"We scored early on and we didn't really have much time to settle down after," Chitrakar said. "We actually wanted to press them even further but before we got the chance, they equalised almost immediately.
"It was good that we managed to come here and take the lead but it isn't easy holding on to it. We definitely were up against a quality side today [Sunday]."
All three of Home's goals came from winning aerial challenges, with Mendy's goals both headers, while Firdaus also scored after his French team-mate nodded the ball down into his path.
While he was pleased with the determination his young charges exhibited, Chitrakar admits they have there is plenty of room for improvement, especially with defending aerial balls.
"The boys that came in tried their best and showed good fighting spirit," he added.
"We really have to work on the areas that saw us concede today [Sunday], especially our defending from set-pieces and crosses.
"Also, we have to put pressure on the midfielders to prevent these balls from coming into the box in the first place."
Despite the defeat, Young Lions remain in 10th after Hougang United, Woodlands Wellington and Geylang United all failed to win their respective matches.

I have read my WH's skype logs with MOW. Many times he told her that he was lying in bed with me thinking of her and what he would do to her or wishing it was her and not me.
I have repeatedly asked him if he really was lying in bed with me and imagining himself with her. He now claims he just made that stuff up to please MOW. However he is not a terribly creative individual and I think he meant what he said when he said it to her. I can't imagine him being able to pull those kind of lines out of thin air that complimented her while at the same time belittled me to her.
Other times, after WH and I would have sex he would get up and then go skype her and describe what he wanted to do with her and it would be exactly what we had just done IRL (there were some unique and detailed interludes).
Did you as WS's imagine your BS to be your AP while you were having sex? Did you ever use what you had done with your BS as the basis of a fantasy conversation with your AP? Do you think it is more likely he was lying to MOW or that he is lying to me now?
Thank you so much.
I can't answer your question as it was not my case, however I just wanted you to know you've been heard and hopefully someone who has BTDT will have an answer. Also, just wanted to add that if my AP was in a relationship I wouldn't have been involved with him because I couldn't do that to his partner, just mine... gosh I hope that made sense!
He very well could have been thinking of her and lying to you so not to hurt your feelings *in his reasoning*. I didn't fantasize about AP during times with my H, I just would block him out due to guilt and my sex life with my H at the times was barely there due to me turning my H down constantly. Only your H can give you the truth as ultimately I wasn't doing the same exact stuff he was and I don't know the way he thinks. Sorry if I wasnt much help.
I only thought my BH as *week* for the the first few weeks after d-day as I was still TTing, seeing the AP and lying. I thought my H wasn't wanting to *fight* for me or that it wasnt a *big deal* to him. He was in shock and I was being a toal selfish d*$k head. My view very rapidly changed when I saw the hurt in his soul when we were moving. His decision to stay, the crap he went thru, how he managed to put up with my parents and everything else going on at the time. It unfortunately took me a while to wake up but once I did the last thing I saw him as was week. Apparently I really viewed myself as week and was projecting that on to him...its hard to give a good description right now as my phone keeps freezing up and I have a little one inquiring as to the readiness of the cookies...lol
WW, after a 2yr A with my xBFF, can't commit to me or our marriage. She is going to IC and we are doing MC. She tells me she loves me. The A was outed by me 9 months ago. Has this happened to any of you and if so what were you thinking?
Thank you to the WS who participate in this forum...as a BS it is very helpful...
if any WS thinks that their BS is weak
You are weak only if you think you are. What you need to do is lay down your boundaries with your newfound knowledge. How much transparency, how much time, everything. You tell him he needs to figure out how to make you feel safe in your M. Don't do his work for him.
Meanwhile, work to make yourself strong (emotionally, financially, etc.) so that you will be fine if you decide the infidelity was really a deal breaker and you want to walk away.
WW, after a 2yr A with my xBFF, can't commit to me or our marriage.
How long can you live with that? What are you getting out of the drama?
On the subject of if you cheat I will... and sticking to your guns, yes, we all have those thoughts and ideas, and, for one, I had them too. And this attitude is correct and there should be no other. But what I have seen on this site and in life in general, life complicates itself to the point where people are not capable to find a way out. At the point people are saying this for the first time, there were no children, unpaid mortgages, lives spent staying and home and taking care of the household, unfinished schools, abandoned careers, economic crises and so on. We also think that once the cheating is discovered the cheating spouse will be ugly, insulting person that would straight away pull the rug under BSs feet, take everything away and sail off with the OW, or OM. But, although there are people doing this, in reality, lots of BSs are remorseful, they cry, they hurt and they are trying to do everything to fix what they have done. They are asking for forgiveness. Im not saying that the reaction of BSs should be any different than if you cheat..., but that adjusting to the situation that is different quite a few years down the marriage, requires not only a wisdom but strength too. And circumstances are so different by that time, that, leaving requires wisdom and strength, also. So, whichever decision you make, that decision is made out of strength, but not of weakness.
Although I have read your profile, I dont where are you at the moment with your relationship and how this can apply to you, but I wish you all the luck, regardless
Hey US ....answer to the first question is for as long as I can...then I will be done.
For the second question - a (more) broken heart. I don't like drama. I don't want drama. I want to have a whole and happy life to enjoy with the person I imagined spending the rest of my life with. However I am realising that it may not be in my future. Hence me asking if someone has felt this way before and what were their thoughts...and did their mind change at any point?
Thanks for replying...I appreciate your questions.
Hence me asking if someone has felt this way before and what were their thoughts...and did their mind change at any point?
Well... I believe that people do what they want to do. If it's been 9 months and she cannot commit, then that means she does not want to commit. I could have savored memories of the OM in my head, but I worked to get through the "withdrawal".
My therapist says we do things because we get something from it. She likes remembering the OM.
BS- me -44
D-day 11/06/12
Again a big thank you to all the WS who are strong enough to share on thus forum.

FWW - Did any of you cheat with a MOM with a pregnant wife? And if so, did it ever cross your mind the damage that would be done to her?
Yes, I cheated with a married man whose wife was pregnant. The potential damage did cross my mind at some point, but I managed to convince myself that 'what she doesn't know won't hurt her', just like I did with regard to my own husband. That has haunted me for quite some time... But you are right, she didn't really figure into the affair at the time, that only came afterwards.
No longer together
Do not let others be your reference for who you see in the mirror.
Stop allowing people to hurt you, because you don't love you enough to walk away.
Does the OW lead you to believe that your BS wasn't good enough and that you deserve a better life with her? Does OW get angry if you have anything to do with BS?
I have read a lot of post from WS about how sorry they are and how they are trying to win back the BS but I want to hear from the ones that didn't want to stay with the BS.
WH does things that just do not make sense to me. He had returned my call a few weeks ago because I needed info regarding our house. I let him know he had received some mail and he said he would be in town and ask if he could come over after taking GS to school to get the items & catch up. I agreed & made plans around that. Not only does he not call or show up, he didn't take GS to school. I text him letting him know that I couldn't wait because I had a meeting. He then called saying he was sorry but he needed to get back home before the afternoon to take care of some things so he left earlier than planned. I said he could have called or sent text instead of just not showing up. He then yelled that he was sorry but he had a lot going on.
He then said that he had called several times the week before but I didn't answer so I shouldn't be giving him shit. He asked how my appoinment with the Oncologist went and tells me that I should be communicating more with my son because he is worried about me. He said my son said I dont tell him anything so he doesn't know what is going on. I told him that I tell him everything about my options and what I chose, however it takes time for the Dr's to set everything up so until they tell me when I'm sceduled for surgery, I don't have any additionl info. I had asked him months ago not to let the kids know that we are still talking because it just pisses them off. My kids think I'm stupid for giving him the time of day, his kids are afraid he is going to mess up their gravy train.
He then tells me that he is getting married in June, that he is a better man and he is now being totally honest with OW and our kids about talking to me and that they know he will always be here if needed, however he has not been here when needed. He doesn't take care of things that he should be taking care of. He says that he is not going to repeat the mistakes of his past with her.
Within 30 min of our conversation, he calls my son asking if I had called yelling at him? My son said no, he had not spoken to me. So X proceeds to tell him that he probably got him in trouble for telling me that he was concerned about me not communicating with him.
He yields a double edged sword! He's so nice & caring one minute and then totally uncarin the next. Can any WS help me understand?
He also told OW that
At the risk of speaking for others, yes, they do think about their BSs, yes they do think about their feelings, yes, many have bad feelings about moving on. Some felt they had no other alternative, while some knew the direction they had to go for their own healing and sanity.
Its going to come down to the type of WS who sticks around on SI. That type of WS is probably not like your WS.
As far as Im aware, there arent any WSs here who are still with their APs. Although, there are a few BSs here who were an AP
All we can do is answer in retrospect. To that end, the AP in my situation did not badmouth my BW, I did. I also badmouthed her BH, but he was the AP back in the day, so
yeah, not going to head down that road right now.
The AP did not get angry when I mentioned BW. Given where I was at in my head during that time, I kept mention of my BW to a complete minimum. Talking about my BW would have caused an issue for myself in the manner of realizing what I was doing was complete shit.
I didnt want to stay with my BW. Yes, I am very happy I am still with her, but during that time, I did not want to be with my BW at all. Of course my goings-on were way more important than my BWs at that time. She should have known that. It was her job to figure out what I was thinking, where I was going, and what I was going to be doing tomorrow even though I kept communication to a minimum.
Of course, its your fault that your WH doesnt know whats going on in your life and he cant get the info from your son
why are you even having that level of conversation with him?
He is taking care of things as it suits him. Cherry-picking the easy stuff and not dealing with the hard shit
hes not going to change even though he tells himself he is a better man. Marriage alone does not make a person better if they continue to act like an individual. And the kids will see through it.
It sounds like He is trying to be the nice guy and that he is trying to minimize his own responsibility in things. The problem is, he doesnt know any other way to operate other than to make it all about other peoples problems.
Thats my take.
He's so nice & caring one minute and then totally uncarin the next.
I'm confused. In reading your entire description, I did not see where he was caring.
Why do you keep talking to him, even though he always lets you down?
I'd just like to hear the other perspective on this. Thanks.

Effective calming formula
No adverse side-effects
Contains natural calmatives
This calming formula reduces tension and anxiety resulting from stressful activities and from high-decibel noises like thunderstorms and fireworks. It promotes relaxation without inducing drowsiness.
The product comes in a chewable tablet form and contains tryptophan, a highly effective natural calmative that reduces stress and anxiety of motion, noise and travel. It also contains valerian root and chamomile. Greeks in ancient times used valerian root to cure nervousness and sleeplessness.
- Works Very Well For Both Of My Pups~ Review by JJ2007
Your Rating Product Vet's Best Comfort Calm Chewable Tabs 30ct
Given that I have used the same active ingredients for my own occasional anxiety needs, (5-HTP and Valerian Root), I felt certain that this formula would work well whenever my pups became fearful or anxious due to external forces beyond my control. So, now whenever stormy weather or the 'fireworks season' is upon us, I dose them accordingly to help ensure each pup's calm demeanor during said events. This supplement really works, and they think they're getting a treat. Win-win! (Posted on 5/17/13)

Why Smart Executives Fail
And What You Can Learn from Their Mistakes
- eBook - ePub eBook: $13.99
Its an all too common scenario: A great company breaks from the pack; the analysts are in love, the smiling CEO appears on the cover of BusinessWeek and Fortune, the stock soars. Two years later, the company is in flames, the CEO is under attack, and the stock has tanked.
Why does this sort of thing keep happening at respectable companies like Motorola, Quaker, and Sony, all of which have very smart, hard-working senior executives? And how can you tell if its about to happen at your own company?
Why Smart Executives Fail answers these and many more crucial questions. Sydney Finkelstein, a distinguished professor at Dartmouths Tuck School of Business, carried out a six-year study of leadership failure, the largest of its kind. After hundreds of interviews with insiders at top companies that got into major troublesuch as GM, Mattel, and RiteAidFinkelstein figured out the common causes behind failures in wildly different types of companies. He explains the seven habits of spectacularly unsuccessful people that drive smart managers to make catastrophic mistakes.
As much about psychology as it is about business, Why Smart Executives Fail tells the stories of more than fifty great business disasters and includes exclusive interviews with many of their leaders, in which they explain what really led to their disastrous decisions.

Comment posted Caithness wind farm rejection by henri.
John, the city/town of the future will not require the type of transportation that we use today. We will live/eat/sleep/entertain ourselves all within walking distance. You are probably thinking how we will travel from town to town or from continent to continent. Don't forget that oil has made possible all our current forms of transportation. When oil disappears, we will just have to walk.
henri also commented
- Let's put it this way. How many square miles of solar panels, square kilometres of wind farms and number of nuclear powerplants would we need to replace oil. By the way, when oil is gone, so is the plastics industry.
- You are one funny man Malcolm. You are up to your eyeballs in waste and can't see it.
- Ban them…………..
- Nope, they were/are a bad idea.
- Like I said, you guys have it all wrong…..old thinking. By the way, I have lived 72 years in this world. I am also an engineer. We would like to believe that we can solve our problems by using more benign forms of energy but such energy sources hide some serious long term side effects as discussed above regarding recycling, mining, etc, etc. I am hoping that we can change the way we live by living in compact communities where transportation needs can be whittled down to almost zero. It will be impossible to generate energy in the amounts consumed today by replacing oil with solar and wind energy. Nuclear power has some serious issues as well as we all know. Can you imagine the wind and solar farms required to do this. Come on now, there must be some intelligent folks out there who can use a simple calculator. Doomsday or not, we are faced with some very serious choices, choices that will change forever the way we live. We have been living in an oil "dreamworld". Had we not found oil, there would'nt be a single tree left on the planet which leads me to believe that there are just too many of us. If we can't sustain ourselves without causing environmental damage, then we are not living right. Changes aren't going to be legislated; nature will provide the impetus to change when the time comes. The earth knows how to take care of itself.
