Cheap Tree Work in New York
About ten years ago, I bought a property that had far too many trees on it, but now the problem is even worse than it was then, as those trees have gotten larger. I guess that I should have bought a smaller property, because I did not realize how much yard work would be involved in cleaning up after so many trees. It is not fun, and that is why I have decided to try to find a tree service in westchester ny to cut down a number of the trees that are located on my property.
I am going to primarily target the trees that are the messiest, in terms of the things that fall out of them. I do not like to have to get acorns out of my yard, and the number of leaves that fall as Autumn arrives is kind of ridiculous. I originally liked the idea of kind of living in the woods, and having my house shaded by a number of trees. However, it has become more of a problem, than a blessing, over the years, and now it is time to do something.
I do not know how much tree work tends to cost, as I have never paid for it before. I hope that I can, at least, afford to get around 10 trees chopped down in my yard. I would like to get closer to 20 trees cut down, but I am almost certain that I would not be able to pay for that. As such, I will just try to get as many as I can afford to get cut down, and then maybe next year, I will have somebody cut down more of my trees. Eventually, I am going to get to the point where it is a lot more manageable.Uncategorized | Comments Off

Dennis Rodman sings Happy Birthday to North Korea's Kim Jong-un
Former US basketball star Dennis Rodman has led an auditorium of North Koreans in singing Happy Birthday to leader Kim Jong-Un, before playing an exhibition game with ex-NBA players to mark the event.
Rodman brought a team of fellow former National Basketball Association (NBA) stars to the North Korean capital, Pyongyang, to mark the Mr Kim's birthday with an exhibition game.
The birthday was believed to have been on Wednesday, although that has not been confirmed.
"It started out as surreal, then people joined in and it sort of faded a bit, but it seemed pretty heartfelt from Rodman's side," said Simon Cockerell, a tour guide who watched the game in Pyongyang, of Rodman's birthday singing.
"It was unexpected, and probably unplanned," he said. "Kim Jong-un appeared to smile, but he didn't appear to expect it."
Mr Cockerell, whose company Koryo Tours took a group of tourists to the game, said the audience had stood and cheered Mr Kim for up to six minutes when he appeared with his wife.
"Dennis Rodman gave a charmingly shambolic speech where he thanked Kim Jong-un and his wife for showing up, along with the other players for being brave enough to come with him and join in his 'engagement effort'."
Ex-NBA stars defeated by North Koreans
North Korean team Hwaebul beat the ex-NBA stars 47:39 in the first half of the friendly while the second half was played as mixed teams from both countries, with the White team beating the Green team 63:54.
Mr Kim met the players from the two teams after the match and wished the Americans a pleasant stay in North Korea, KCNA said.
The Swiss-educated Mr Kim is reported to be a keen fan of basketball and especially of Rodman's former team the Chicago Bulls.
This was Rodman's fourth trip to Pyongyang - on previous visits he spent time dining as a guest of Kim, with whom he says he has a genuine friendship.
Rodman's trip continues to be criticised
Rodman has been widely criticised for failing to raise human rights issues or the plight of jailed American Kenneth Bae during his visits to the North and to the leader whom he calls his friend for life.
Rodman has rebutted the criticism, saying he simply came to celebrate his friend's birthday, according to China's state news agency Xinhua.
"He also said he did feel the love and enthusiasm the [North Korean] people have for their leader," Xinhua reported from Pyongyang.
Rodman has said he would not interfere in North Korea's politics but he raised outcry at home when, in a television interview on Tuesday, he appeared to suggest that Bae was to blame for his captivity.
Asked by CNN if he would make the case for the release of the American missionary, Rodman said: "I don't give a rat's ass what the hell you think."
"If you understand what Kenneth Bae did ... Do you understand what he did in this country? Why is he held captive in this country?" Rodman said, declining to respond to questions to clarify what he meant.
Bae, a 45-year-old tour operator, was arrested in November 2012 as he entered the north-eastern port city of Rason.
The North described him as a Christian evangelist who smuggled inflammatory material into the country and sentenced him to 15 years' hard labour for allegedly seeking to topple the government.
Bae's family outraged by Rodman's comments
Bae's sister, Terri Chung, said her family was outraged by Rodman's comments and he could do a lot of good by using his access to the North Korea leader to advocate on his behalf, rather than "hurl outrageous accusations" at her brother.
"He is playing games with my brother's life," Ms Chung said in a statement.
"There is no diplomacy, only games, and at my brother's expense."
"He is clearly uninformed about Kenneth's case, and he is certainly not in any position to pass judgment."
Asked about Rodman's comments, White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters: "I'm not going to dignify that outburst with a response," emphasising that the trip was private travel not endorsed by the US government.
"I'm simply going to say that we remain gravely concerned about Kenneth Bae's health, and continue to urge DPRK authorities to grant his amnesty and immediate release on humanitarian grounds," Mr Carney said.

The Army was warned it is running out of time to show it can deal with bullying as the Ministry of Defence faced legal action by an ex-private who says he attempted suicide several times after his complaints were ignored.
Joseph McCabe said that he received death threats and was stabbed in the leg at the height of constant abuse centred on his stutter but that officers laughed off the threats and no-one was punished.
He told BBC Radio 4's Today programme that while on tour in Iraq someone held a knife to his throat and told him: "you've got until the end of the tour to kill yourself, if not, accidents happen".
Requests to transfer out of his regiment were denied with no reasons given, he alleged, and psychiatrists to whom he was sent after five attempts to take his own life on camp said there was nothing wrong with him.
He is taking civil legal action against the MoD for its alleged failure to act, the BBC reported, as well as appealing against a decision to deny him financial compensation.
Mr McCabe told the programme: "I'm still having nightmares, I'm still having flashbacks. If I could I would lock myself up in a box and just hide away.
"But if I do that it's like I'm letting those people in the Army win so I have forced myself to take up a new career, to rebuild my life."
The Ministry of Defence said: "Whilst we can't comment on individual cases, we can be clear that the armed forces have a zero-tolerance policy towards all forms of bullying, discrimination and abuse.
"All allegations will be fully investigated either by the civil or the military police and appropriate action will be taken."
Official figures recently showed one in ten military personnel claim to have been the victim of "discrimination, harassment or bullying in a service environment" in the last year - a rise of 25% on the previous 12 months.
The release of the latest survey of morale intensified pressure for an independent ombudsman to be given responsibility for investigating claims.
Former colonel Lincoln Jupp, who commanded the 1st Battalion Scots Guards in Afghanistan in 2011, said "the clock is ticking" for the military to show it can deal properly with the issue internally.
He suggested some of the steep rise in cases was down to successful education campaigns which had encouraged more reporting but accepted too few were still being properly dealt with.
"The armed forces are coming to terms with the fact that it has got to change and so are probably behind the curve and have got to catch up," he told Today.
"The clock is ticking on the armed forces to get its own house in order because there are too many incidences and too many complaints which don't appear to be being dealt with quickly enough.
"The challenge in terms of applying the right standard of behaviour are for every layer of the chain of command to do their bit."
Dr Susan Atkins, the Service Complaints Commissioner, is in talks with the Ministry of Defence about reforming the role and would like to see it become an independent ombudsman.
She is backed by ex-forces charities and the Defence Select Committee and Prime Minister David Cameron recently told MPs he was taking a personal interest in the progress of the talks.
There are concerns within the armed forces that an outside regulator is incompatible with the chain of command.

Dance of Love
When I opened the lumpy envelope containing Jim Kaat's just-published poetry book, one word came to mind – WOW! Then one thought – every person after they die should be honored with such a lovely book.
Dance of Love; Dance of Life … Poetry by Jim Kaat is a substantial wow for several reasons … one being who would expect a self-proclaimed "dumb jock" to go so deep? And I don't mean to left field.
The second reason being that the contents of Jim's book depicts a love so sturdy and affectionate between a husband and a wife, even if we all didn't know Kitty, we would have shed a tear for the tenderness he offers with words, and the sadness and helplessness he surely experienced watching his beloved bride of 22 years wither away with cancer.
Mary Ann Kaat passed away July 21, 2008.
It was through death when I first met her. Ken and I flew to the Kaats' Florida home last November to attend a stirring memorial party. In their happy yellow house, Jim kept notebooks of hundreds of poems he had written daily to his beloved "queen." He ran with my suggestion to publish them, thus Dance of Love was born, and unlike any of us, it shall live forever in a splendid tomato-red hardback book. The cover artwork is a mock of a contemporary statue on the Kaats' front lawn. Mary Ann's bright face bursts from almost every page as the reader watches her live, hug, swim, laugh, kiss, share, sit and love Jim Kaat right back "mutually" as she once told him.
And if Kitty's poems aren't beautiful enough, two surprises are included before and after his collection. Eight of Mary Ann's family members and friends wrote their wonderful thoughts; then after Jim's "Farewell" poem, there are several pages of Mary Ann's notes to Jim in her handwriting. Very nice touch.
I'm still shaking my head paging through Dance of Love. It's a beautiful testimony of marriage. And I hold true to my initial reaction … wow.
"Facing Mickey Mantle with the bases loaded was relatively easy," writes Jim Kaat in Dance of Love, as he weighed how he would pen his last words to his wife. The following is the last poem he recited to Mary Ann on the day before she took her last breath:
Farewell my beautiful queen,
The most magnificent woman I've met or seen.
I look forward to seeing you again some day,
I'll recognize you as soon as I see you;
You'll be the one that stands out from the crowd
The dynamic outspoken one, free-spirited Italian,
Maybe a bit boisterous and loud.
You'll always be with me in spirit, my guiding light,
Even though you're gone from my sight.
All my love,
Jimmy Lee
Although Dance of Love was produced only to share with Jim's family and close friends, I encourage you to meet Mary Ann on Jim's Web site.

Thank you for that awesome review of Jim Kaat's muses.
I am going to have to get that book immediately for my other half who is a huge poetry and baseball fan.
Most people do not get to ever see that side of a ballplayer because of the focus on their physical feats.
But each guy who laced on the cleats also has other talents that we usually never get to see until after they are done playing.
Another great example of that is former Yankee Bernie Williams. I was in a club in St. Petersburg, Florida about 8 years ago and got to chat with him for a few minutes and found out his love for jazz.
Since then, I have been a fan of his music.
I am so glad Kaat publish this poetry book, and you can be sure you will have other like me also buying one soon.
Fantastic review!
Rays Renegade
Dear Rays Renegade – thanks for the comment, very appreciated, and you're right! However, if you notice the last line in the story (after the poem), I mentioned that Jim Kaat published the poetry book only for his family and friends.
Mrs. Singy
Great piece today Mrs. Singy. I wasn't aware that Jim's wife passed away. There was an obvious deep connection between the. One that I suspect not every married couple experiences. As Jim always struck this fan as a down-to-earth guy, it appears there's more to Jim than I ever knew. God bless them both.

Taxes may need to go up, but this idea really stinks
This may be the year the General Assembly steps up to do something about Illinois' fiscal mess.
Even Rep. Roger Eddy (R-Hutsonville), a staunch opponent of tax increases and a strongly pro-business legislator, acknowledged in his newspaper column Monday that the state is going to have to do something just to fund the programs created in the past several years, much less pay for new initiatives like universal health care and school construction.

Richard Overton
Personality Profile
Who is Richard Overton? He is an American supercentenarian who served in the United States Army, was honored by President Barack Obama, and at age 112 years, 230 days was the oldest verified surviving U.S. World War II veteran and oldest living man in the United States. He was born on Friday May 11th 1906, in Bastrop County, Texas, United States.
Freedom is the key to Richard's personality. Richard Overton loves travel, adventure, variety and meeting new people, and he longs to experience all of life. He also loves to be involved in several things at the same time as long as he is not tied down to any one area. Change is constant in his world, requiring adaptability and courage.
With his upbeat and often inspiring personality, Richard Overton makes friends easily and attracts people from all walks of life. He has a way with words and an uncanny ability to motivate others. Thus, Richard can be very successful and happy in sales, advertising, publicity, promotion, politics or any profession that requires communication skills and understanding of people.
Richard is multi-talented and possesses a variety of diverse abilities. However, discipline and focus are the true keys to his success. Without these, many of the tasks Richard begins will remain unfinished and he will fail to realize the true fruits of his abilities. With hard work and perseverance, however, the sky is the limit. Self-employment attracts Overton powerfully, yet his challenge is to settle into one area to cultivate his ability sufficiently to earn a living and attain success. Once Richard Overton finds his niche, the motivation and inspiration he supplies others with will bring him much in return, and he will find his friends and colleagues supporting and promoting him on the road to success.
He is often a late-bloomer and needs to experience life before he can truly know and commit to his heart's desire. Richard Overton may be perceived as a wild child by adults and a source of concern by his family. However, he must not be obliged to hurry his choice of career or family. Richard's challenge is to learn the true meaning of freedom-from-within through his jurney. He should try to maintain an exercise program to keep his body in shape. The flexibility and durability of Overton's body will promote security and confidence within him.

Entrepreneurial and progressive, Richard Overton is ever-striving, heading for the top, and enjoying an enterprising, ambitious and determined personality to do things well, and an unyielding dedication to his plan until the goals are achieved.
He bounces back easily from setbacks and can overcome any adversities or obstacles thrown in his way.
There is danger, however that his trait of determination and dedication will shift to stubbornness, making Richard cling to ideas and projects well past their fruitious season. It is a good idea for him to keep fresh pipeline of ideas to make it easier to replace outdated plans by new and better ones.
Patient as he is towards his goals, Richard's flying, ravaging temper endangers his relationships with the very same people that will help him to accomplish those goals. He should use his strength of will to study and practice anger management.
Tour Richard's menu and gain more insight into his personality traits, relationships, strengths and weaknesses, likes and dislikes, compatibility with you and with others, and much more.

Christophe&Loredana necesitaba un nuevo diseño de página web y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 47 diseños de 12 diseñadores freelance.
We are launching a website to sell mobile phones and accessories to the public. We are a small company but we believe we can offer models that might not be available on other sites. We have limited editions, funky colors that the major retailers might not have.
We would like our site to reflect the fun side of our company but still look professional so we do not alienate customers. Not too many fancy gimmicks ... may be one or two ...
However.. we are on a budget!
Our target audience is pretty wide. basically anybody interested in buying a mobile phone or some accesories for it is a target. Broadly speaking I guess anybody between 15 and 65 fits this profile.
The main people buying mobile phones are :
Tech savvy people (high specs mobile phones)
Fashion conscious persons (limited editions and different colours)
... and just people who need a new phone (anything else) !!
We would like them all on our site!!
We had the logo designed with an ealier contest, so obviously we keep this.
The layout of the site will stay the same with 3 columns.
PLEASE NOTE that the site is developed using PRESTASHOP.
What is required of you is to find the right combination of colors for the navigation tabs, headers (like categories, Featured products, my account, viewed products, etc...).
Find the right colors for the background at the top (at present it is Pink and we quite like this but we are opened to other suggestions)
Find the right colors for the Cart, Tags, wish list, newsletter, the block with the currencies and contact at the top....
The whole thing needs to be in balance. We do not want a bland design (in terms of colors) like you see on most e-commerce sites, however we do not want to give people a headache.
You can change the structure of the page (ie where the different blocks are placed) in order to create a more intuitive layout.
The work needs to be given in PSD file with layers.

Ford Mustang Ratings, Reviews and Analysis
On April 17, 1964, New York World's Fair visitors were the first to glimpse a vehicle that would become a cultural icon. The first Ford Mustang would go on to reach its yearly sales target in just three months' time, reaching a production milestone of one million units less than two years later. In 50 full years of production, the Ford Mustang seemed to sync with the decades as they passed, ultimately growing into a globally sold flagship built to compete with the world's best.
Borrowed parts and fast development were the staples of the first Mustang program, which mandated a four-seat sports car weighing under 2500 pounds and retailing for less than $2500. Early examples of the car -- produced in 1964, formally sold as 1965 models, but referred to by enthusiasts as "1964 1/2" models -- were equipped with a 2.8-liter inline six-cylinder engine that did not hint at the tire-smoking V8 reputation that would come in time. Late 1965 models did not host the quirks of their predecessors: alternators rather than generators, no hidden "Ford Falcon" script underneath the steering wheel tirm ring, a new inline-six and a range of available V8 engines marked the Mustang's maturation. The Mustang GT debuted this year, formally pairing a V8 engine with additional comfort and convenience features. Texas-based racer Carroll Shelby turned his attention to the car, setting in motion a series of racecars and street-going sports cars that would become significant points in American automotive history.
Ratings & Reviews
It is just a blast to drive around town and still looks good even as the body style approaches 10 yrs old. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a fun run around car. The back seat does get small for anybody larger than a small child however for long trips.
Appreciated by most folks, lots of complements. Easy and comfortable to drive on short hops or long cruises. Fun on curvy roads. Beautiful V-8 sound, nearly addictive. Rear seat area sparse except for kids or small adult who doesn't mind sitting sideways, otherwise just a fancy luggage area. No major expenses in 44K except new tires and brake service. About the last of "old" design before Ford started messing it up again. Very good highway mileage with a little effort. I don't do a lot of travelling any more, primarily use it around town.
Great retro styling. Mostly mid 20's fuel mileage, high 20's when highway driving. Low 15 seconds quarter mile at mile high. My first new Mustang did about a the same performance (68 Cobra Jet) at 8 MPG. Have owned many cars over the years, foreign and domestic. This is my favorite.
Its appearance is striking, its performance is outstanding and it is an extremely comfortable car to drive. For a muscle car, it gets reasonable gas mileage (overall about 15 mpg). It is reliable enough to be used as a daily driver and forgiving enough to withstand some pretty severe traffic conditions during rush hour when I do take it to work. All in all, it has been a blast.

Quantitative Effects of Trunk and Head Position on the Apnea Hypopnea Index in Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Search Medline for
|April 4, 2012
Objectives: To test the hypothesis that head position, separately from trunk position, is an additionally important factor in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients.
Design: Prospective cohort study.
Patients: 300 patients referred to our department because of clinically suspected OSA.
Measurements and Results: Patients underwent overnight polysomnography with 2 position sensors: one on the trunk, and one in the mid-forehead. 241/300 Subjects were diagnosed with OSA. Of these patients, 199 could be analyzed for position-dependent OSA (AHIsupine > 2x AHI non-supine) based on head and trunk position sensors: 41.2% of the cases were not position dependent, 52.3% were supine position dependent based on the trunk sensor, 6.5% were supine position dependent based on the head sensor alone. In 46.2% of the trunk supine position-dependent group, head position was of considerable influence on AHI (AHI was >5 higher when the head was also in supine position compared to when the head was turned sideways).
Conclusions: The results of this study confirm our hypothesis that the occurrence of OSA may also be dependent on the position of the head. Therefore in patients with a suspicion of position-dependent OSA, sleep recording with dual position sensors placed on both trunk and head should be considered.

Kosovo is situated in the central part of the Balkan. In the Southwest, it is bordered by Albania, in the West by Montenegro, in the North by Serbia and in the East and Southeast by Macedonia.
The territory extends within longitudes 41° 50' 58'' and 43° 15' 42'' and within latitudes 20° 01' 30'' and 21° 48' 02''
Kosovo covers a surface area of approx. 10,900 km² and is characterised by an average altitude of 800 m above sea level, but showing vertical changes of relief and morphology. These morphological changes are a consequence of the geological setting. The lowest point of Kosovo is located at an elevation of 297 m (Drini i Bardhë/Beli Drim, at the border to Albania). The country rises up to the highest point in the South of Kosovo – Djeravicë/Gjeravica at 2,565 m.
From the geographical point of view, Kosovo can be subdivided into two large regional flat units, after ÇAVOLLI: The north-eastern part is referred to as "Rrafshi i Kosovës", the south-western part as "Rrafshi i Dukagjinit". They are characterised by special climatic-geographical conditions. For instance, several subunits like Drenica, Novobërdës dhe Gollakut, Fusha e Kosovës, Fusha e Moravë, Podujevë, and so on, are distinguished.
The border between Rrafshi i Dukagjinit and Rrafshi i Kosovës forms the surface water divide between the Adriatic Sea on the one side and the Black Sea and Aegean Sea on the other side.
Kosovo is surrounded by several high mountain ranges. The northern part is occupied by the Kopaonik mountains (above 2,000 m), which are characterised by abrasive activity, both fluvial and glacial. In the southern and south-western part of Kosovo, at the border to Macedonia, the Mali i Sharrit/Šar Planina mountains are located (above 2,500 m). The western part of Kosovo (border to Albania) includes parts of the Alpet Shqipatare/Albanian Alps mountains and the Mali i Moknes/Mokra Gora mountains (border to Montenegro). These areas are characterised by rocky material, high mountains and deep gorges.
In the central part of Kosovo, western and north-western of Prishtinë/Priština, the mountain ranges Bjeshket e Çiçavice/Čičavica and Golesh/Goleš, Carralevë/Crnoljeva and Milanovc/Milanovac are located, which are characterized by artistic forms, both fluvial and abrasive, rising to elevations of about 1,000 m.
The part of Kosovo, which is characterized by far flat areas, covers a surface of approx. 36 % of the country territory. These basins are characterized by elevations between 400 and 700 m above sea level.

Needles: #10.5
Behold! The power of the Lust for A New Party Outfit!
I am shocked/not shocked that I actually finished this – it was basically begun on the 14th of December and WHOOT! Two weeks later, even though the blur of the holidaze spun my head, even though the naughty nature of this tinselly ribbon provoked and aggravated this native, even though other more important projects were staring me in the face, I finished this.
A pile of jewels anchored by a brooch fills the deep neckline with a sigh.
Originally, I was going to use leftover gold tone ribbon to finish the edges, but it didn't work! The bright gold in the main ribbon clashed with the dullness of the edging. So I went back to the drawing board and decided to try the red leftover ribbon instead. It neither detracts or retracts but edges the shell with a delightful KISS of color that is in the same tonal range as the Copper in the body ribbon.
You've painted up your lips
And rolled and curled your tinted hair
Ruby are you contemplating
Going out somewhere
The shadow on the wall
Tells me the sun is going down
Oh Ruby

Photo by Barbara Smith
Friday's column talks about the mural in the PFF branch at 399 N. Garey Ave. in Pomona that will close June 19. It's a hard mural to photograph because it's so long, but the above photo, sent in by reader Barbara Smith, gives you an idea. You can see an equally panoramic view (in B&W) of the mural at the Pomona Public Library's website, or a series of color images on Photobucket's website that lets you look at the whole thing in pieces. The building opened in 1956 and presumably the mural dates to that year too.

| 12.7°C Belfast
Andy Carroll's thoughts appeared clear after the Football Association on Tuesday upheld his red card in West Ham's Barclays Premier League win over Swansea, and the resulting three-match ban.
The 25-year-old had been the focal point of the Hammers' attacking display, setting up both Kevin Nolan goals in Saturday's 2-0 victory at Upton Park, before he was sent off by referee Howard Webb having tussled with Swans defender Chico Flores.
West Ham manager Sam Allardyce said after the game that the club would appeal against the decision, with Swansea counterpart Michael Laudrup suggesting the sending-off had seemed 'a little harsh'.
But the ban will now remain in place and Carroll sent a tweet on Tuesday afternoon shortly before the official statement suggesting he was aware of the decision, as he simply wrote: ''DISGRACEFUL''.
The Football Association clarified the reasoning behind the decision not to overturn Webb's decision in a short statement on its official website.
"As stated in the Rules and Regulations of The FA, an Independent Regulatory Commission must apply the test of whether the decision to dismiss a player was 'an obvious error'," it read.
"The decision of an Independent Regulatory Commission in relation to a claim of wrongful dismissal is final and binding on all parties and is not subject to appeal."
Carroll, who has only recently returned to the first-team fold following an eight-month injury lay-off, will now miss the Hammers' next three fixtures.
That rules him out of Saturday's clash with Aston Villa and the two home fixtures against Norwich City and Southampton as Allardyce looks to steer his side out of the Premier League relegation zone.
The absence of club-record signing Carroll has been one of the major factors in their poor first half to the season, with the win over Swansea just the fifth league victory of the campaign.
That poor form was compounded by a 5-0 defeat against Sky Bet Championship side Nottingham Forest in the third round of the FA Cup and an embarrassing 9-0 aggregate reverse in their Capital One Cup semi-final against Manchester City.
Now sitting 18th, just a point inside the relegation zone, Carroll's return from a long-standing foot injury injected a much-needed impetus into the Hammers' faltering campaign.
The former Newcastle and Liverpool forward set up a goal on his return from his long-standing foot problem in the 2-0 win at Cardiff and once again showed his value in creating both goals for Nolan in the vital win over Swansea.
But now Allardyce has been hit with the blow of losing his talisman once more and has only Carlton Cole or new signing Marco Borriello to replace Carroll in the starting line-up for the weekend trip to Villa Park.
Cole has recently penned a new deal at the club having re-joined on a short-term contract after being released in the summer, with the former England international scoring five goals so far.
Borriello was brought in on loan in the January transfer window from Roma and the Italy international has yet to feature for Allardyce's side, having notched just once in Serie A before completing his temporary switch to east London.

The Multinational Battalion (MNBN) mission is to be prepared to conduct operations autonomously or in support of the BiH authorities or EU/International Community Agencies in Theatre when requested.
Currently, the MNBN is under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Alfred Sanz.
The MNBN mission is to be prepared to conduct operations autonomously or in support of the BiH authorities or European Union/International Community Agencies in Theatre when requested, in order to maintain a safe and secure environment (SASE). It is the only military manoeuvre unit operating in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH). Another task is the reception and integration of the Operation ALTHEA Intermediate Reserve Force. Since EUFOR has increased its efforts in the capacity-building and training of the Bosnian authorities and, in particular, the Armed Forces of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the MNBN can be reinforced by an Intermediate Reserve Force, a new rapidly deployable and capable force provided by six EU nations. This force will be held in their respective countries at an appropriate degree of readiness and would only deploy on operations if called forward by the Operation Commander.
Since 28th March 2007 the MNBN has formed the basis of the new European Union force structure in BiH. The MNBN, based in Camp BUTMIR (Sarajevo), presently is made up of two Motorized Companies from Austria and Turkey. A Battalion HQ provides the MNBN Commander the necessary means for planning and conducting operations.
The training of the MNBN consists of practices in cordon operations; known as Blue/Green Box techniques, Crowd and Riot Control (CRC), helicopter procedures, occupation and maintenance of Forward Operation Bases (FOB), medical evacuations, extraction of LOT personnel as well as mine awareness training. The MNBN frequently conducts its exercises in a combined way and in different areas in order to rehearse and maintain full command and control capabilities and procedures. In addition, all companies of the MNBN periodically conduct exercises in different training areas with a special focus on MOUT (Military Operation in Urban Terrain) and Live Firing.
MNBN units are equipped with weapons for self-defence, such as automatic rifles or heavy machine guns, as well as necessary gear for adequate self–protection, such as bullet-proof helmets and jackets. All MNBN units are motorized with 4–wheel drive vehicles and are able to quickly respond to any kind of situation. Orders are transmitted through the chain of command from MNBN HQ to company / unit level by an interoperable communications system, based on sat and land waves communications. The MNBN HQ in return maintains a line of communications to HQ EUFOR HQ at all times.

I bought this dress to wear at my daughters wedding. I must say it was perfect!!! I'm glad I read the reviews because I ordered the perfect size. I normally wear a 14 and I ordered a 18. I will be ordering from here again .
I got it in royal blue for my daughter Wedding. Got a lot of comments. I did get some authorization done to the dress. I am "5'0. Overall the dress is beautiful. Just like in the picture.
I am very pleased with my dress. It arrived sooner than I expected. The quality is very good and met my expectations. The only thing I will have to do is take in the sleeves as they are a bit too baggy for my liking. Very good quality work. I can't wait to get my petticoat for under it.Thank you EricDress!!
I thought that the dress was made very well, I wish I went just a size up. I weigh 175, I'm 5'8, and usually wear a medium, but when I measured myself my size was a 12/13 or 12/14. it fit fine but I would have wanted just an inch more of room... if that makes sense. I also with that I could see the fabric better in the picture provided on the site. Thanks! I love the dress, it came with bra pads and a slip if needed.
lo cierto es que llego ENORME a pesar de que lo pedí a medida. por suerte llego antes de hora y pudieron hacerle algunos arreglos. la calidad de la ropa se ve buenísima y lo cierto es que fue muy cómodo!
I was very nervous but I decided to take a risk based on the price. The dress was actually very much like the photo. I am not disappointed. This will not be my primary wedding dress but instead it will be for my pre-wedding photos and I am rather pleased. I will post more pics soon. This is a real review. Btw, it fit fine. Sizes are accurate. Thanks Eric Dress.
Dress is beautiful. Looks as pictured. Will have to pay for alterations as it has a malfunctioning zipper.
I bought this dress in october 2019, it is exceptionally beautiful and was GREAT for the price. I am still in awe!. I will have to do some adjustments though , that is because i took it a size bigger just to ensure it fits. Thank you so much ERICDRESS!!

Gorse (Ulex sp.) is closely related to the brooms, and like them, has green stems, very small leaves and adapts to dry growing conditions, but differs in that its leaves have evolved into 1-4 cm long spines. All the species have yellow flowers.
The most widely familiar species is the Common gorse (Ulex europaeus), the only species native in most of western Europe. It is also the largest species, reaching 2-3 meters in height; this compares with typically 0.2-0.4 meters for Western gorse (U. gallii). Common gorse was brought to the Americas as an ornamental, but soon escaped into the wild and now is an invasive weed.
Common gorse flowers most strongly in spring, though it bears some flowers year round. The flowers have a very distinctive strong coconut scent. Western gorse and Dwarf gorse differ in being almost entirely late summer flowering (August-September in Britain), and also have somewhat darker yellow flowers than Common gorse.
Picking the flowers can be a chore, as the spines seem relentless. But the reward is a wine that is most enjoyable,
Put the flowers into primary immediately. Boil half the water, half the sugar and the chopped raisins together for 1 to 2 minutes, then pour over flowers. Thinly peel the rind from the oranges and the lemons and add rind (no pith) to primary. Squeeze out the juice and add that too, but not the pulp. Add the tannin and stir thoroughly. Add cold water to bring total to 1 gallon. When water cools to 90 degrees F, or less, add the activated yeast and yeast nutrient, stir well and cover. Ferment 3 days, stirring twice daily, then add remaining sugar and stir to dissolve. Recover primary and continue stirring twice daily until fermentation subsides or s.g. drops below 1.020. Strain through a sieve or cloth and transfer to a gallon secondary. Fit airlock and set in warm place. Rack after 30 days and again when clear, wait a month and rack again. Stabilize, wait 30 days, and sweeten to 1.004-1.006. Wait additional 30 days, rack into bottles and age 6 months before tasting it. [Author's own recipe.]

USA: Little Wall Lake Working Group Meets in Des Moines
The Iowa Department of Natural Resources, residents of Little Wall Lake and Hamilton County Conservation Board members met in Des Moines on Tuesday in an effort to advance the management plan of the 256-acre lake. The two sides have been at odds over the lake's water level management.
As a shallow lake, the DNR statewide management plan sees natural drought cycles as healthy for the resource, allowing sediment to solidify on exposed lake beds and to get vegetation established that benefit fish, wildlife and help remove nutrients from the lake water.
Lake residents preferred to increase the lake level for recreation during drought years and wanted to pump water from nearby Mud Creek. Mud Creek has high levels of phosphorus that would cause additional water quality problems in Little Wall Lake.
Previous discussions occurred as part of a group created to discuss management of the lake including water level issues.
"We are not against pumping water but need to find a source that will not harm the lake," said Martin Konrad, with the Iowa DNR's Fisheries Bureau. "We presented our view of ways to improve the water quality while addressing recreation issues that come with lower water levels."
Konrad said the plan the DNR offered Tuesday includes a cool weather low dose chemical treatment to control yellow bass and grass carp to get the fishery back in balance that will improve water clarity which will increase aquatic vegetation that will remove nutrients and benefit fish.
He said boat access during low water cycles will be addressed through improved and lengthened boat ramps.
Little Wall Lake has the smallest lake to watershed ratio at less than one acre of watershed to one acre of lake. The DNR will reshape the dredge spoil site to increase the watershed by 60 acres.
Jane Todey, who lives on the lake, said the proposals sounded good, but she was concerned about the lakes' low water elevation and that improved water clarity could lead to too much aquatic vegetation. Konrad said the working group will continue to search for an alternative outside water source that would not adversely impact the water quality of the lake, during low water years.
The group will hold public meetings to get reaction to the proposals to improve water quality and recreation opportunities.
Press Release, October 18, 2013

Cut Down Day
Wednesday, March 28, 2007
Roster Decision Day
Following today's game, the club will make its final decisions on the 25-man roster, so stay tuned to whitesox.com for our official announcement.
Tomorrow, we play a noon game against the Rockies with one lineup while everyone else flies to Birmingham for our exhibition game tomorrow night. Then, it's on to Atlanta for exhibition games Friday night and Saturday afternoon.
Do you think there is any chance AJ figures out a way to stay in Atlanta and watch his beloved Gators?
Sunday, the team works out in Chicago at noon, which then brings us to the day we have all been waiting for … OPENING DAY.
Some people have asked why we wait until after the game to announce moves. I have two examples, one sad and one gulp.
The sad one came just a few years ago when Brian Simmons, an outfielder who had earned a job on the big-league club, went down in a heap rounding second base in the final game in Tucson. It turned out he had ruptured his achilles (which I had also done). Brian re-habbed, but it is safe to say he never was the player he could have become.
Another time was during the season. We were making a player move after a game on the road. It was a travel night, so the newspaper writers weren't even going to head down to the clubhouse after the game. Because of their deadlines, it reached a point where I either had to tell them the move while the game was still going on, or stay quiet and have them mad that they didn't have the move. So I told them to try and help. The minute after I told them, a hitter lined the ball off our pitcher's leg (the guy who was going to be sent down). As a result, instead of being sent down, he was heading to the disabled list. Now, the news was out (even though it didn't happen) and we had to worry that early editions would be wrong. So I learned a lesson.
I've been back in Chicago this week preparing for Opening Day and getting our new press box in shape. I think people will be pleasantly surprised by what they see.

observations from the chilly southwest, ie, tucson….. i only went to two games this spring and we lost both. that's ok except that our pitching is the main reason we ARE losing. i am waiting for the season to begin too, but here are two points; while pitchers expect to give up more runs/hits in AZ than elsewhere, why is it that we gave up more than any of our competition. isn't it reasonable to assume that if the spring air is conducive to hitting here, that it is also the same for the other teams as well? I'm not too big on spring stats, and in Ozzie and Kenny i trust, but…. i have a baaad feeling about this one (season coming). i hope i'm wrong, i hope i'm wrong, i hope i'm wrong…. point two is that we've been relatively injury free for the past couple of years, and as a realist, it just might be our turn for the "I" bug to hit us, even beyond Toby…. again, i will be rooting for our guys from day one… there just seems to be something missing this year that was present the past THREE years.. i want to be wrong, and in my circles it is well documented that the opposite usually happens in my predictions, and i did get a White Sox to Win the WS when i was in vegas earlier this year, so who knows? only time will tell. i feel better now, having gotten that bit of worry off my chest…. thanks for listening, and Go Go White Sox '07…. j.k.
i'm hoping that everyone who keeps saying that spring stats don't matter are right…let's go sox.
-bv in kalamazoo
Hawk let out an interesting stat today. Over the past 2 spring training seasons we are 2-21-1 combined against the Rockies and D-Backs. I know these games mean jack squat, but you would think that in 24 games against the garbage of the NL we could win more than 2 games if not just by accident.
Klein – I understand your worries. One would expect that the hitting and pitching numbers would go down somewhat equally once we leave AZ, and if that is the case we are still looking at giving up more runs than we are scoring. I am no genius, but I am pretty sure it is tough to make the playoffs doing that.
Going 2-21-1 against those junk teams proves that Spring Training stas are meaningless. The White Sox finish much better than both of those teams year after year in a much harder division. I feel a little bit better now.
Boone got robbed! He outpitched Sisco by leaps and bounds. I hope he doesn't get traded because chances are, we're going to need him soon. And I know Kenny's getting fed up with validating the Freddy trade but he better get used to it for the time being. That's what happens when you trade a proven horse for two minor-leaguers who in all liklihood will make no contributions to the team this season. In Kenny's mind I'm sure he saw Gavin stepping into the 5th slot with ease and obviously he hasn't done that. A good trade for the future, certainly. But for the time being it's made us weaker.
And I'm glad to hear that Ozzie's pulling out the short leash because the long leash from '06 gave players way too much wiggle room for laziness and lapses of concentration. Someone mentioned this previously but we don't have the luxury of finding our stride once the season starts. We're facing tough division rivals right out the gate. This last week of ST should have been that period to tie all the loose ends together. Most fans aren't bother by results in Spring Training. W/L don't mean much. But the apathy and lack of effort displayed (especially last night) do concern me a bit. Come on out the gates blazin' fellas and it's moot. Come on out like we have been and it's going to be a very long season.
All that bitter garbage aside I can't wait for the games that do count! The season hasn't even started and I'm already a neurotic mess…wouldn't want it any other way. Gotta love the Sox.
Exactly right, is our approach so different in ST than every other team? Do the Sox just tell the pitchers, "Get in your work, and don't worry, it doesn't count?" In the immortal words of Jaime, "it's fruuustrating".
I don't agree with Logan not making the team. Should've left the ex-Cubbie off, he might be bringing a curse with him.(joke) Seems like ST meant nothing to a guy working his tail off, pitching better than most on the team, and then being sent down.
I liked the idea of moving Dye back to #3, putting the speed (best of the 3 bigguns, anyway) first, then Thome, then Paulie, making it a righty-lefty-righty punch. Instead, now with I-PODS and ERSTWHILE at the top, that gives you 3 lefties in a row. BUT, Ozzie reversed that thought. Too bad, he let a good idea die before trying it.
Anyone else hear this junk on the WSCR about how there will be a HUGE White Sox announcement sponsored by Walgreens this Tuesday on the Score? I'm sure its another marketing deal liek the 7-11 7:11 start times. What a pile of you know what.
Anything to make a buck!
Before you know it, you will have "home plate brought to you by (insert massive takeover machine name here) Bank"
And of course that is not just the Sox, that is all of professional sports. Even the Scrubs broke down this year and will have an UnderArmour sign on the wall in place of some of the coveted ivy.
Great to finally be able to post again. I had some password problems for the last 2 months. I was chomping at the bit to express some thoughts, but haven't been able to. Lets relax a little over spring training, have they ever been good under Ozzie, last time I checked we are the only team over the last 2 years to win over 200 games. Looking forward to some 65-70 degree weather on opening day. See you cats there. Again jacked about being able to post again.
Uh, guys, DANKS IS A LEFTY!!!!!!!
It's in the subhead, for pete's sake!
Good news from one of the enemies today. Kenny Rogers out until July. Probably had to have the pine tar surgically removed from his hand.
A lot of people are picking the Tigers to pull out a repeat perfromance of last year. I am anxious to see how some of those young arms are doing come about mid-season. If our veteran arms grew tired last year they should have similar problems because the young pitchers have never thrown as much in the past as they did last year.
The pickup of Gary Sheffield does not mean much to me right now. If they look at him to be "the man" and be a leader they made a big mistake. The only place he was really successul was on the Yankees where he really took a back to seat. We'll have to wait and see if he learned anything.
OK, I am really just trying to make myself feel better by using reasons that I think we can be better than Detroit this year.
I completely agree with you Dev. Kenny being out is great news for the White Sox. And I think the young players on their team won't be able to pitch as well as last year. A repeat performance like that almost never happens. Sheff is not a leader at all. They will look for him to be the man and it will backfire.
I can't wait until Monday. Go Go White Sox
I am by no means soft when it comes to competition, but I think we should at least hope Kenny Rogers is all right. A blood clot and atrery problems are still pretty serious. With that said I am glad it will be a while before he is making out hitters look ridiculous with his stuff.
Kenny Rogers is a blatant cheater. He was caught on camera cheating last year and nothing was done about it. Can you say karma?
I never said I wanted the guy to be hurt. I am not wishing him any ill will. However, I do like the fact that he will not be on the Tigers until July. Don't act like we are hoping for Kenny to die, Fitz.
This is a completely random question, but I'm wondering what some other baseball lovers would think.
If a player puts up ridiculous numbers to the extent that he is clearly the most valuable player in baseball, but for some reason this player is traded in a blockbuster move about halfway through the season which league would he win the MVP for? Would he win one?
I guess this is a stupid question because the scenario would probably never happen, but I'm just curious as to what you'd think.
not a stupid question at all, mgrothendick.. when mark mcguire went to st louis from the a's in the middle of the season a few years back, he had over 20 homers in the AL and wound up with over 50 for the year. he didn't win either mvp but was considered for both. you can look it up, but i prefer to have TQ correct any/all mistakes i may have made…. j.k. go go White Sox '07
Went by the park today and a light was on… someone was home! 🙂
I was SO happy… I still am!
It was great to see.
How come Danks isn't listed on the roster on the website? Guess they traded him already, maybe for Rowand. 🙂
Pretty good game for Beuhrle last night, good to see. Vazquez, not so much, today.
I hope we're starting Pablo instead of Pods tomorrow against Sabathia. Can't wait for tomorrow and I doubt I'm the only one who plans to be stricken by a mysterious illness around noon. Opening Day should be a national holiday. Let's start this season off on a good note and kick some Cleveland ****.
Well, tomorrow is the day we all have been waiting for! I am still concerned about the pitching. It was good to see Mark have a good game against Atl. I hope the rest of the starters can pick it up a few notches now that they are out of Az. Come on Sox, get it started off right on Monday!!
I wish the team health and success in 2007. I expect at a minimum a 'winning' season (83 wins.)
I also wish the fans a healthy and happy season watching the team. It's no fun being sick or having issues that make it difficult to watch the club.
Mark Liptak
It's Opening Day and I cannot wait for Contreras to throw the first pitch at 1:05

I just got my first BB a 9330 and I love it! The first couple of hours I had it, I noticed that the trackpad would move on its own. I changed it to the lowest sensitivity setting and it stopped. The next day the phone worked beautifully but as soon as it got to be 8:30-9:00pm, the trackpad would start moving on its own. It does this each night.
Does anyone have any solutions or suggestions as to why it does this? Or even why its consistent in when it starts?

Lady Gaga is a seriously busy businesswoman. Recently she's been fielding criticism from PETA, prepping her fragrance release, writing a magazine column and collaborating with rapper Kendrick Lamar.
The animal rights organization PETA is targeting Gaga for changing her mind on her stance on fur. In 2009 she told Ellen DeGeneres that she "hate[s] fur" – but just last week she was spotted sporting fox and rabbit fur.
PETA Senior Vice President Dan Mathews called out the pop star in an open letter, writing, "…are you a turncoat?…please tell us whether what you gracefully told Ellen was heartfelt or just a pose."
Gaga fired back a rebuttal on Twitter.
"For those press and such who are writing about whether or not my fur is actually real, please don't forget to credit the designer HERMES. Thank You! LOVE, gaga."
Luckily, Mother Monster can avoid any criticism from the organization in her new, nearly-nude trailer for her upcoming fragrance, Fame, out next month.
The video shows the pop star and her posse amidst an oily liquid resembling the black perfume itself. Quick shots show Gaga in skin-tight, barely there outfits and laying down nude while tiny men climb all over her, as seen in the teaser ad shot by photographer Steven Klein.
Gaga Tweeted her excitement as she posted the photo last month.
i won't lie I'm a bit nervous. its been a while since i've shared some work with you. But i'm so proud of Steven+I, we really did not sleep!
— Lady Gaga (@ladygaga) July 16, 2012
The look of the Fame trailer reveals a new, darker side of Gaga's style, which she adds to in her latest Lady Gaga Memorandum about nails in V Magazine.
The queen of the pointy "stiletto nail" she explains how to make the extreme style work for any occasion. She offers tips on personalizing your nail art, whether "glamorous," "clean," "art," or "sexy." She also spills the secrets behind her official Born This Way Ball nail – a glittery pink number.
Next up for Gaga is a collaboration with rapper Kendrick Lamar, whom she was spotted supporting during his set at this year's Pitchfork Music Festival in Chicago. She confirmed via Twitter today that the pair worked on a song that will appear on Lamar's upcoming album, good kid, m.A.A.d city.
I am so excited to announce that a record I've been working on has now become a collaboration with
@kendricklamar for HIS ALBUM.
— Lady Gaga (@ladygaga) August 15, 2012
Meanwhile, Gaga is gearing up for her upcoming album, ARTPOP, which does not yet have a release date.
