On a Tuesday in November, I was at work when Vikram messaged me about a possible Utah trip at the end of the year. Since my ex-roommates from Rochester, NY were coming over for four days and leaving on Christmas, I was not too sure about the trip. But things worked out and we asserted our commitment by purchasing air tickets to Salt Lake City.
I had thought of writing a travelogue right after my ten-day Europe trip in June of last year. Somehow it never happened. In September, I had a chance to visit London and Oxford. This time I was surely going to do it! But moving to, and settling down in a new place made me forget about it. So I was determined to write about the upcoming trip. Moreover, my ex-roommate Vikram (not the one who told me about the trip) wrote an amazing travelogue about his experiences in San Diego. That was enough inspiration to begin writing.
The five-day trip resulted in a sizable travelogue and so I thought it would be best to reduce the wall of text in each post by breaking it down into parts. Also, that would allow me to post 'new' content in some time and hopefully have Facebook's News Feed algorithm put it in front of your eyes! 😛 Feedback and comments will be appreciated at a legendary level! You can also let me know if you don't like this piece of writing and the intensity of your feelings as well – 'had to punch the screen', 'searching for author's address' etc. I might not publish the subsequent parts … Nah I'm kidding, I am going to do it anyways!
Anyways, here we go. All the pictures (except for the Google-searched image above) are taken by Vikram, Saurabh or myself. Panoramas are clicked by my Nexus 5. "When three out of four people are taking their cameras along, why should I bother?" – Madhavi.
Day 1 – 27th December, 2013
San Diego, CA
As the afternoon heat peaked at two o'clock, I was home from work. The bags were ready by the door. A flurry of phone calls and a quick lunch later, I was waiting for my roommate to swing by. He arrived on time, and after collecting Saurabh on the way, we headed to the airport.
Vikram and Madhavi were coming to the airport in another friend's car. After saying goodbye to my roommate, Saurabh and I sat on a concrete bench near the departure gate and began chatting. Having met him just a couple of times before, we had quite a lot of things to discuss. Half an hour passed and there was no sign of the rest of our party.
As Saurabh was making his third phone call to Madhavi (I had pitched in with a call as well), we saw them arrive. Men's grooming seemed to be the topic of the moment as both Saurabh and I had last-minute additions to our common check-in bag. My shaving kit and Saurabh's giant can of shaving cream. Yes, you could certainly shave a gorilla with that amount of shaving cream!
Regaining our composure after a few fits of laughter, we checked the bag in and went inside the terminal. Post security, we were sort of in the mood for some tea or coffee but only Saurabh was successful in overcoming the potent combination of indecisiveness and laziness, and got himself a bagel.
At the gate, I was made to wait as almost everyone else boarded the plane. My seat had been reassigned to accommodate a young couple with a child. The airline official was having trouble printing a new boarding pass. My absence was quickly noticed and I got a call from Vikram; I didn't answer it as the printer had finally stared singing its monotonous song.
The two hour flight was uneventful. An early sunset had turned the sky blood red on the eastward flight. I went through quite a few pages of Jeffrey Archer's Only Time Will Tell. Although as we neared Salt Lake City, my head started hurting a little. Something to do with the cabin pressure most likely. Even Madhavi felt something wasn't quite normal about the flight.
Salt Lake City, UT
Skis, snow boards and oversize baggage everywhere! It was 9:40 PM. Grabbing our bags, we waited for a couple of minutes before heading out towards a rather prompt taxi. Stepping outside, I was immediately nostalgic. Chill winds, and vapor coming out of my mouth as I speak, can take me to Rochester, NY (RIT alum; Go Tigers!) from anywhere in the world.
Dense fog greeted us as we moved out of the airport area. While it wasn't snowing at the time, the slightly muddy snow on the sidewalk suggested it had snowed a few days ago. The SpringHill Suits Marriot was located close to SLC downtown. Close by car, of course. Shivering, we entered the hotel, checked into our room and walked out in our winter jackets. There was an Indian restaurant by the name of Copper Bowl nearby, that was selected (after an intense discussion) for dinner.
As Saurabh had lived in Utah for two years during his Masters, it was a homecoming of sorts for him. And also the reason we were able to plan the finer details of the trip.
Copper Bowl turned out to be a good restaurant save for the overzealous waiter who thought our Indian looks gave them the license to add a copious amount of chili powder to the noodles! Madhavi had tears in her eyes. But not the kind that go with five-star reviews on Yelp.
Day 2 – 28th December, 2013
Salt Lake City, UT
Rising early, we could see the snow outside in the bleak early morning light. Our objective was to reach Arches National Park as early as possible to make the most of the winter daylight. After getting ready and being dropped off at the Budget rental location, we were in for a not-so-pleasant surprise. The empty parking lot was an ominous sign. Our fears were quickly confirmed when we were told that 'reserved' meant 'you'll get it today' and not 'we're holding it for you'. Since the holiday season was in full swing, cars returned at the airport were being brought to the location and dispatched promptly. We waited for an hour; the wait punctuated by a quick trip to McDonalds on the other side of the road, for coffee.
But the wait turned out to be worth it. We were given a blue Jeep Cherokee SUV. It was the latest model, having all sorts of features. My favorite was the one that prompted the driver to turn on heated seats as soon as they started the car. And the heated steering wheel as well; clearly, we had a great winter car. While signing for it, we were told that only two people could drive the car. As Vikram was renting it and Saurabh was the 'local boy', they signed up.
As we started making our way out of SLC to get into the mountains, we got a good feel for our surroundings. While the fog made it difficult to get a clear view, we could see the mountains surrounding us on three sides. I'm certain this geographic arrangement is quite unique, especially for a city of this size. We started on the I-15 freeway south. The same I-15 that runs through San Diego!
Vikram's driving and Saurabh's navigation put us in good shape at the start. Madhavi and I were in the back seat, taking pictures and looking around, while listening to Saurabh's commentary on the locale. DJ duties kept switching back and forth between Saurabh and myself. Superb views greeted us as we started on the mountain slopes. Snow covered hills, cleared railway lines and huge wind farm fans. For some reason, the Jeep had tinted back windows, making photos darker than the environment.
Stopping for a quick restroom break at a gas station, we continued the journey through the mountains. After a while, the terrain flattened out and we were on a plateau of sorts. We saw ice capped mountains on the left side and snow fields that stretched for miles on the right. I have seen snow before. Lots, and lots of it. But an arid region covered in snow has its own beauty. Vegetation was sparse. I don't recall seeing a single bird or animal along the way. The road was quite narrow; passing wasn't permitted except on dedicated passing lanes, appearing occasionally for each side.
Arches lies in the southern part of Utah, which has distinct geographical differences compared to Salt Lake City and the northern region. As we drove southwards, the rocks changed from gray-black to dark green, and then to red. Short, spiny shrubs could be seen mingling with larger green plants. A sheer wall of dark green rocks to our left side was quite a sight.
We halted at a gas station again and later at a Subway for lunch. Time was not on our side. The plan for the day was to cover as much of Arches as possible. It would be supplemented by a half-day visit the next day. Again, the sights on our way south were incredible. Bright soil, with shades varying from dark brown to red was covered with shiny white snow, making a truly unique sight. As we were nearing Arches, Saurabh pointed out that Canyonlands National Park was on the right side of the road, a few miles in the south-west direction.
Arches National Park, UT
We reached Arches at three in the afternoon. After a quick visit to the visitors centre, we realized we could manage a couple of major sights before sunset, while stopping along the way from time to time. We started on the winding road that leads into arches from the peripheral red hills. It was a cloudy day. The diffused light, always a photographer's friend, made the red rocks and soil shine in a beautiful hue. While it was not particularly windy, the chill in the air didn't allow for open windows.
The first spot we stopped at was at the end of the winding entrance road. There were no more hills to block the view. We were looking at Arches in its full glory for the first time. Of course, not all of its gems were visible. We were immediately in awe of this wonderful landscape, crafted so eloquently by nature over a timespan that stretched beyond comprehension. The park was a red field studded with white snow spots and green grassy spots; tall rocks and arches abruptly ending the monotony at places. We saw an organ-like structure (which is actually called The Organ, if I remember) about half way across our line of sight. To our left was a tall rock, jutting out of the ground in all its red glory without a speck of snow on it.
We took a few pictures. My frozen hands told me that I should either give up on them completely or learn to handle the camera with snow gloves on. As we continued along the park road, we came across The Three Gossips. The sandstone tower had three 'heads' at its summit, that were 'looking' in the same direction. They appeared to gossip amongst themselves. It was a great sight. We also came upon stubs of great arches that would have existed thousands of years ago.
Arches is a geologist's heaven. Saurabh mentioned that one of his roommates at Utah State was a geology major and could go on and on about almost everything in the national park. I could imagine that. Every type of rock formation and arch we were passing by had its own story, hidden but to those who have dedicated their lives in pursuit of that knowledge.
Our next stop was a planned one: Balanced Rock. This magnificent natural wonder was visible for a while, as we approached it. It looked straight out of a Road Runner cartoon; I could visualize Coyote having a rope around it to pull the rock on top of the fastest running bird on television. The forty meter tall, red rock stands vertical on a pedestal-like base rock. A companion rock structure stood behind it. We parked near the trail and walked towards the rock. Pictures were taken. A lot of them. We managed to disturb a photographer, who was deeply engrossed in setting up his telephoto lens on a tripod. He wasn't too bad with a mobile phone! As we walked around the rock, its appearance changed quite a bit. Becoming more fist-like than an elegant, natural sculpture. Looking south-east, we could see the majestic, snow-capped mountains; providing a gray-white backdrop for the hundreds (if not thousands) of tall, red sandstone rocks.
Next: Windows arch. Actually, it is a section of the park that has a lot of large, window-like arches. I believe the name comes from the fact that the view through the arches, like the arches themselves, is quite impressive. While the trail to Balanced Rock was a short one, this time we had to walk uphill. The trail was covered in hardened ice sheets, making everyone walk along its edges. As we got closer, it appeared to take the shape of a giant, empty eye socket. Saurabh and Madhavi reached the arch first. I noticed Vikram's absence and turned around to find him obliging to a group-photo request by three lovely ladies. He joined us below the arch in a 'short' while (the pictures had to be perfect!).
The arch was huge! We sat beneath it for some time. It was just an incredible feeling. The wind, over millions of years, had gone from creating a tiny hole in a wall of sandstone to this magnificent structure. A gust of chilly breeze reminded me that the arches were still being shaped. We had seen quite a few cave-like sandstone structures throughout the park. All of them were arches in their embryonic form. After gazing out the 'window' for a while, we moved on to another, smaller arch nearby. The bleak daylight was beginning to fail at a rapid rate. And we still had another milestone to hit before dark.
Double Arch was the next milestone. It is worth mentioning how well-maintained the internal roads, that took us from sight to sight, were. The quarter mile trail to reach this arch was a simple, straight one from the parking lot. The sight is truly magnificent. Two huge arches can be seen connected to each other at one of their base points. From where we were standing, they appeared almost perpendicular to each other, adding to the beauty of the form. The already tall arches were elevated, requiring an explorer to climb to get underneath them. Saurabh and Madhavi started climbing as Vikram and I started taking photos; trying to capture both the arches at the best angles, in the fading light. I was thrilled to take a well-formed, 360-degree panorama picture on my phone that didn't appear 'stitched' at any point. Although, it is certainly not the best panorama picture that I clicked on the trip. Check it out below.
As the sun finally managed to escape the clouds over our heads and started shining golden on the horizon, we made our way back to the parking lot. We stopped for a while to look at a fascinating view of the park at sunset.
Dusk took over as we started on Arches Scenic drive, back to the park entrance. Saurabh had taken over the driving duty. There was never a better setting to listen to Coldplay's Fix You. And so we did. Since the night was cloudy, we couldn't see anything apart from the faint silhouettes of the arches and other rock formations around us. The red park had turned black in a matter of minutes. The drive was a quiet one as everyone was quite tired. Soon, we passed the visitors center headed for the park exit.
Moab, UT
When Saurabh mentioned this town for the first time in San Diego, I thought, for some weird reason, that it was either an acronym or I wasn't hearing him right. Nevertheless, this quaint little town was going to be our base for a couple of nights. We were also quite eager to see the condo we had booked. Everyone was famished. The discussion to finalize our dinner destination took us all the way from Arches till our condo, and continued.
Moab used to be a mining town. The rich Uranium deposits around it made it prosper in the fifties and sixties. Now, it is a base for tourists like us: visiting Arches and Canyonlands national parks and for other adventure sports enthusiasts, especially mountain bikers and SUV off-roaders. Navigating through its quiet, empty and (often) dark streets, we reached our condo. The street was dark and deserted; there were no street lights nearby. In fact, it was so dark, that unless we were able to get the Jeep's headlights pointed towards the condos, we couldn't even read their numbers! Our condo was one amongst a long row of similar ones, which did not help. Finally we were able to locate ours; although Vikram had to get out, walk to it and confirm the number. The temperature that night was minus eight degrees (celsius, of course. Apologies to my American friends). We were pleasantly surprised to see that we had a large garage attached to the condo.
What a place it was! Upon entering we saw a cavernous living room with an attached kitchen and dining room. A large TV was on a mantlepiece in front of an L-shaped couch. In a corner, the top shelf of a cupboard contained Monopoly, Scrabble and other board games; books occupied the lower shelf. The dining table had fancy plates, bowls and cutlery laid out on it. The condo contained a master bedroom and two smaller rooms; two bathrooms, quite large; and a separate laundry room near the entrance. But we were hungry and unfortunately, there was no food in the luxury home. Check out the condo here! Seriously, please do.
After an hour of discussion, we decided on a pizza place nearby called Pasta Jay's. The pizza was served on a raised platform and was delicious! Although we couldn't have been the best critics at that time; we devoured it so fast the greasy cheese barely had time to settle. The pasta and the garlic bread did not disappoint either. An hour later, we were on the Main street in Moab, heading towards Walmart. Why would we do that? For milk and cereals, of course! Stopping for breakfast was typically not an option in our sunrise-centric plans. On our way back to the condo, we saw beautiful holiday decorations along the Main street as well as on some of the houses.
Our plan for the next day involved getting up early to catch the sunrise in Canyonlands National Park, and head back to Arches again to see its most well-known landmark. As we were chilling out on the couch, someone pointed out that the next day's weather forecast was 'cloudy'. That could be a big blow to our sunrise plans. Multiple weather services were consulted; some of them showed a 'clear' day ahead and some of them did not. After a spirited discussion for half an hour, we decided to go ahead with the plan anyways and called it a day.
Thanks for reading! Hope you enjoyed it so far. Part 2 is
coming soon here! Again, please feel free to let me know your thoughts 🙂

I wanted to make Mark feel loved and special on his birthday so his friends and I surprised him last night. His birthday isn't until next week and he had no inkling of what we had planned for him. I'm so happy that he was happy. When you love someone, his joys are always twice more in you. Everything was really perfect….Everyone was complete to surprise Mark when we arrived home last night; the fireworks were amazing and the weather cooperated; the food was good; music was relaxing; the tablescape was magnificent; the cakes by Alex Franco, Reb Disini and Joy San Gabriel were all so delicious; and most importantly, Mark was happy. ❤ It was a beautiful and memorable evening.

5. Learnings of a girlboss: Kris Aquino pays penalty for business license renewal
#LEARNINGSOFAGIRLBOSS My sole proprietorship, KCA Productions (KCAP), was activated once again for the year 2017. While it has been operational since 2013, it was dormant (non-operational) in 2016. As such, the business permit was not renewed and this was an oversight from our end. On June 28, 2017, a new permit, taxes & fees for year 2017 was paid in full. The release of our @chowkingph Welcome Rotonda branch business permit w/c is owned by a separate corporation was affected because of this, even if our Chowking AliMall branch in Cubao has had a perfect track record. Ideally, these endeavors should have been treated separately, and KCAP did get issued its 2017 business permit. In the end, the issue has been amicably resolved. It was a humbling experience for me because I need to be vigilant in all aspects of my businesses. And now we move on wiser. ❤❤❤#PositivityWins

text: Stockholm Seminar on japan, 28 FEBRUARY 2017 " Providing Public Services in a Decentralized Way: Local Government Finances in Sweden and Japan" by Dr. Morinao Iju, Associate Professor, Yokohama National University & Visiting researcher at European Institute of Japanese Studies, SSE Start time: 2017-02-28 at 15:15 Sweden and Japan have a similar characteristic in terms of fiscal system, where the local government sector has a larger share of responsibilities for providing public services in the framework of a unitary state. However, while Sweden has developed the stable local revenues with local income tax and tax equalization system, Japan has not been successful of financing the increasing public demands even after the fiscal decentralization reforms since the mid-1990s. This presentation examines the fiscal problems of local governments in Japan and tries to extract some lessons from the Swedish experience, where the local governments have increased the tax rates to finance the expanding welfare services since the 1960s. Morinao Iju is an Associate Professor of Public Finance at Yokohama National University and a visiting researcher at European Institute of Japanese Studies, Stockholm School of Economics from April 2016 to March 2017. He has been studying the field of public finance such as tax policy, budgetary policy and intergovernmental fiscal relations focusing on Sweden as a case study. Discussant: Bo Legerius, Economist, Swedish Association of Local Authorities and Regions (SALAR) Moderator: Professor Marie Söderberg, Director European Institute of Japanese Studies, Stockholm School of Economics Date and Time: Tuesday, February 28, 15:15-16:45 Venue: Room Ragnar 3rd floor Stockholm School of Economics, Bertil Ohlins Gata 5 Language: English Please RSVP to email@example.com, February 24, 2017 The Japan seminar series is jointly organized by the European Institute of Japanese Studies at Stockholm School of Economics, the Asia Programme at the Swedish Institute of International Affairs, the Department of Asian, Middle Eastern and Turkish Studies at Stockholm University and the Swedish Defence University. It features monthly seminars on Japanese economy, politics and society. Welcome!

How is adrenal surgery performed?
This document is available in Spanish
Prior to having adrenal surgery, your doctor will ensure that you have been properly prepared. You should discuss all of your medical problems with your surgeon during your consultation visit. Specific blood work, additional tests or consultation with physicians in a number of specialties may be required depending on your medical problems. In addition, if your adrenal gland is producing an excess of one or more hormones you may need to be on specific medications before, during and/or after your surgery. All adrenalectomies are performed under general anesthesia and most often require at least an overnight stay in the hospital.
There are a number of types of operation to remove the adrenal gland. The appropriate approach will ultimately be determined by: 1) tumor size, 2) patient characteristics (i.e. body size and shape, medical conditions, previous operations, etc), 3) the experience and expertise of the surgeon. The two main types of adrenalectomyAdrenalectomy - an operation to remove the adrenal gland are open and laparoscopic adrenalectomy. Open adrenalectomy uses a large incision (usually beneath the ribcage). The laparoscopic or minimally invasive approaches use multiple small incisions and a camera to remove the adrenal gland. The laparoscopic technique allows for shorter hospital stays, decreased blood loss, less post-operative pain and quicker recovery and has become the standard approach for adrenalectomy in most patients. 20-23 However, for very large tumors and for tumors with a high risk of cancer, the open approach is still preferred. For both open and laparoscopic adrenalectomy, there are a number of different techniques and variations. In general, there is no "best" technique and which approach is used depends on the experience of your surgeon. For this reason, the most important thing is to find an experienced surgeon. (See How do I find an experienced surgeon?)

In an effort to press the government into meeting their demands, students at Sana'a's School for Orphans have erected tents on Taiz Street and have vowed not to depart until their demands have been met.
After feeling that their needs have been ignored for years, the students have effectively cut off the street, one of Sana'a's main thoroughfares.
Adnan Al-Saidi, a teacher at the school, said, "The students are calling for their basic rights. They are only asking for food, clothes, and a little pocket money."
While he doesn't agree with their blocking the road, Mr. Al-Saidi says the students have every right to protest and himself called on the National Unity Government to pay more attention to the orphans and their school, which has been one of the pillars of the nation's educational system for more than 90 years.
"The students aren't demanding much; they're only calling for basic needs to be fulfilled – such as food, clothes, and stationery, things which the government used to provide, but which disappeared in 2008 when school funding became the governorate's responsibility," said Al-Saidi.
"At this critical time of the year, with final exams approaching, the students should be staying inside and studying well to pass the exams. Unfortunately, they are too busy calling for their basic rights to properly attend to their studies. We have been trying hard to convince the students to study and not let this affect them."
In the current climate of political and social divisions, Al-Saidi emphasized the importance of the students' protests remaining non-partisan.
"The students took action and we had to respect them, but we cautioned against letting anyone from outside into their protests. We want their protests to stay pure, and for them to call for their rights only," he said.
The students used to receive a monthly sum of YR 300, but since responsibility for funding the school transferred from the Ministry of Education to the governorate, the flow of funds has completely dried up.
Students accuse former Sana'a mayor Abdul-Rahman al-Aqwa and his aides of being the reason behind their suspended rights.
According to the students, the quality of education at the school has sharply deteriorated and even the food is insufficient and of poor quality.
"Apparently, the government thinks the daily ten riyals it used to give to orphans for pocket money is too much, and therefore has withheld it," said Mohammed Abdu al-Raimi, deputy head of the school's student committee.
"The student can't understand and learn if he enters the classroom hungry. This leads to students hating education and to their becoming failures in the future," Al-Raimi added.
"We decided to rescue our school before it's too late, and we will not go anywhere until our demands have been met." Al-Raimi said.
Yousof Al-Matari, a graduate from the school, said he came to support his colleagues in their struggle to receive basic rights.
"We demand that the orphans' rights be met and guaranteed, and we also call for corrupt officials to be held responsible for the suspension of funds – in particular, the former mayor of Sana'a, Abdul-Rahman Al-Akwa.
"As long as we're on the right side, we won't back down. The government should support the orphans rather than provide tribal sheikhs with monthly salaries," he added.
The number of students enrolled at the School for Orphans has sharply decreased of late, and especially so following the uprising which struck the country. Many students have been recruited into various units in Yemen's fragmented army. Some students were recruited even before they reached the legal enlistment age.
While there were more than 1500 students at the school in 2010, there are now only 380 pupils, this according to Hassan Al-Taib, a teacher and head of the school's high school department.
"Before the students took to the streets, they came to us and said 'If you could give us our rights, we wouldn't hold any protests.' But we could not provide them with their basic needs, and therefore they decided to escalate their protests," said Al-Taib.
Hassan believes that cutting off the road isn't the right method to adopt, but also said the students' actions are justifiable as they had no other way to have their basic needs met.
"If the president would only provide the school with five million YR, the students would immediately call off their protests."
In addition to the aforementioned demands, the students have also called for the School for Orphans to be made a financially-independent institution that – administration-wise – answers to the president.

Last night I decided to try – once again – to get my rogue through PoS. Because the last 4 times I tried resulted in groups on Lei Shen.
Zone in and, hey, guess what… group's in the Consorts' room, half the raid having left before going for Lei Shen. Or even the trash. That's five times I've tried to get into an instance whose first two bosses drop the weapons I so badly want, and five times I've not even gotten to see the first two encounters. In previous runs I'd stayed and tried to down it. This time I just left immediately and ate the Deserter debuff.
Why? Dead simple. Last time I tried sticking around it ended up being 5 wipes in a row on a long-ass fight, complete with waits for replacement party members each time. That doesn't sound like a lot, but it was close on two miserable hours wasted on this piece of shit lazy fucking transcription of a boss. Having been through the 5-wipe story already on Dry earlier in the week with a mostly co-ordinated group, I was min for the same again. This boss is not worth the time investment.
What exactly is keeping Blizzard from reworking this miserable steaming pile of fail? I'd make two broad changes, and I guarantee that 90% of groups wouldn't fall apart:
- Gut bouncing bolts. Keep the mechanic where they summon adds when they hit unless someone's under them, but kill their ability to bounce and summon more adds. One bolt, one add, that's it.
- Alternately, spawn all of the bouncing bolts in one quadrant only.
- Slap an upper limit of 5 targets on Diffusion Chain.
The aim is pretty clear. What screws people over – what should have been pointed out by some mentally prolapsed design drone's five-year-old daughter – is that the intermission spread mechanic requires too much co-ordination and preparation from random PuGs. So, set it up so that we can stack in one quadrant without being reamed hard by adds and Diffusion. Ta-da! Problem fucking solved. You're welcome.
Or we could just stick with 2 hour boss fights and people constantly leaving the instance. Wouldn't be my call.

The use of aluminium closures is rising – so much so, that screwcaps now account for almost 30% of the total global bottled still wine market, according to recent Euromonitor research.
In 2012, the market share of aluminium closures in Europe alone was around 26%, but by 2016 this had risen to 29.6%.
"These reports show that aluminium closures are continuing to show strong advantages over other wine closure types," said Guido Aufdemkamp, executive director of the Aluminium Closures Group. "These reports show that aluminium closures are continuing to show strong advantages over other wine closure types."
According to information supplied by the Group, the aluminium closures market represents around 9bn units annually, out of 30bn bottles of wine sold worldwide in 2016. The major drive of global growth has been the US market, but there has been strong growth in Germany, the UK, France and the Netherlands as well.
"In addition, it is worth noting that while the global volume of bottled still wine measures in 0.75L equivalent bottles by IWSR decreased by 2.8% in the period of 2012 to 2016 to 23.3 billion bottles, Euromonitor shows the total number of wine bottles sold worldwide was stable," he said.
The Aluminium Closure Group represents the major manufacturers of aluminium closures, strip and sheets for closures, or 75% of global production.

Coming February 16, 2016
Shahram "Ram" Zare carries a dark secret—shadows of unresolved pain. Five years earlier, he and his brother fled the Kurdish region of Iran over a tribal war, but now, the ghosts have settled, and their uncle travels to the US, hoping to encourage the brothers to marry. And Ram has been charged with finding a pseudo-fiancée for his older brother, Javad. His search leads him to a beautiful woman. He hesitates to ask her to be a pawn in such an archaic system of duty, especially as his heart grows deeper in love with her.
As Mia Phillips watches her mother slip away from cancer, she bows under the pressure of unpaid bills and heartache. No amount of soul searching fills her empty bank account… or her indecision over the most breathtaking man. Ram offers her a life change, yet not with him—a fake marriage of convenience to his brother. Javad is too hard and rigid, but Ram… he is the other half of her soul. Yet they must remain friends to make the lie seem real. Or will they?
Everything comes down to propriety, honor, and the right to choose the love of their hearts…

Clear And Present Danger (1994)
2 other mistakes
Directed by: Phillip Noyce
Starring: Anne Archer, Harrison Ford, Joaquim de Almeida, Willem Dafoe
Other mistake: The first plane to explode has a very neat symmetrical blast originating from underneath the plane - which is in fact wrong given that only one charge was placed on the side of the plane. The plane would be badly damaged and probably jack knife through the side of the hangar instead.
Other mistake: In Colombia, a heavily camouflaged soldier goes into a hangar and places a bomb on it and rushes out before it explodes. On his way out, he passes another soldier who is lying as close to the ground as possible. In front of this soldier is a line of fine wire, right in front of his face. The only thing I can think of for that wire being there is as a marker for the actor.kh1616

Now, this concept is one that is normally seen if business but it can really be used with authors as they think about their novels. Let's start with the definition, right off of the ol' Internet:
noun: take-away
- 1.a key fact, point, or idea to be remembered, typically one emerging from a discussion or meeting."the main takeaway for me is that we need to continue to communicate all the things we're doing for our customers"
Now, when it comes to your story, you need to be thinking of what you want the reader to be thinking about when he or she hits that last page of the book. You can also think of this as the thesis of your book. It is important to know that we are not talking about the type of book (i.e. this is a coming of age story, or a story of lost love found), we are talking about something we can learn from this story.
If you have that point in mind before you even start writing your novel, your story will have focus. All of the actions, dialogue and scenes that happen in the story add one more piece of the lesson puzzle you are providing for your reader.
What you will also find is that the take-away of your story will also feed the high concept and marketing you will use when submitting to editors or agents. This will also assist the people in the business and marketing departments of your publisher as they work on promotion work for your novel.
Please note that this is not likely something you can just put in after you wrote your story. Sure, you can likely manufacture a generic idea, but the problem is that all of the things you put in the story may or may not support that message.
So, what is your take-away? Not sure? Find it before you write today!

Online looking for these cabinet draws have to be done thoroughly due to the fact that exactly what you see in the photo may not be just what you will in fact see once the pull is supplied to you. Checked out the specs to guarantee that the handle fits your cabinet perfectly when you get the crystal pull. Take note of the size, forecast, mounting distance, and also the coating caps.
Inquiries along these lines should certainly be extremely thoroughly thought about since you don't want to misuse your hard earned money on substandard quality pulls. This can be the key reason that numerous materials disagree for making closet pulls. Usual iron or steel, as an example, could very easily corrosion or wear away. Longevity could also be a significant figuring out concern. Due to the fact that it is going to be heavily made use of and also abused for fairly some time in the future, your pull needs to be resilient sufficient.
There is absolutely nothing like bringing brand-new life to your cupboards to uplift your area without administering large amounts of money. This is simply among the a number of reasons why individuals are rather crazy about looking into this stunning equipment for their cupboards today.

If there was ever a way to promote your reality television debut, this is it!
Star of the new season of Survivor: Gabon, Charlie Herschel, is telling everyone he was Clay Aiken's confidant just prior to the American Idol runner up's decision to come out of the closet as an openly gay man.
Charlie, 29, tells The Advocate he was Aiken's online chat buddy for about two years. The two started chatting on a popular social networking site and the casual chat-fests soon developed into a friendship while Aiken was in NYC performing in Spamalot.
"There was a point when I was in law school that I was on IM almost every day," Charlie, an openly gay New York attorney, says, adding that the two have maintained a friendship ever since.

This batter turned out very good. I thought it overpowered the cheese but it was wonderful with mushrooms and zuchini. Also, make sure the cheese is frozen or it will melt and leak out of the ...
This batter is very plain.It lacks consistency You would be better off with breaded cheese sticks.
This was pretty good. After dipping into the batter, I rolled them in Panko breadcrumbs, and then fried.
I just couldn't get them to stay solid. The cheese kept melting in the oil. It made a huge mess.
The batter is thin, very thin. Most of the cheese stuck to the spatula while I was attempting to retrieve. Hubby ate them, well it is fried cheese dipped in marinara but I do not recommend this ...

In our dorm hall it is common to hear voices; the walls are thinner than the pages in a bible.
But…sometimes, we hear soft conversations. Or someone watching Seinfeld…at 3 o'clock in the morning.
There was this time…Mickey and I were napping and we woke up to the sound of what sounded like a couple arguing.
I was paying more close attention and caught some of the dialogue exchanged between the two.
"Babe, you're such a dick."
"What? Why?"
"Because you're stupid. Just go."
"Fine. Then I'll leave."
"Babe, wait, don't leave."
…what? What even is this? So, then later Mickey and I hear loud yelling. "Stop, stop, stop, stop." So we yell at our suite mate, asking if she's okay. She doesn't answer and after we say that everything goes quiet and there was no trace that there was any boy in her room.
So, that means one of two things:
- the air vents travel a lot farther than we thought
- ghosts
And you might think that it would be our neighbors, well, trust me, they don't have girlfriends. The only other girls are on the other side of the hall.
In conclusion, Mickey and I live with ghosts. I want to name them, but I want to get a feel more for their personalities.

Distribution and Variation between Populations of Pacific Sand Lance in the San Juan Archipelago
Heller, Charles
MetadataShow full item record
In the San Juan Islands, the immediate trophic levels of the marine food web represent a critical link that is largely constituted by forage fish, including the Pacific Sand Lance. This document contains the results of an in-depth study of the morphological and conditional differences between Pacific Sand Lance populations at different depths. Beach seines were used to retrieve fish from shallow water (Jackson Beach), and Van Veen grabs were used to sample from deep water (the San Juan channel wave field). The fish observed at the wave field were larger and heavier than those at Jackson Beach, both across the season and on a discrete, week- by-week scale. There was a slight disparity in hibernation periods between depth populations. In the wave field, most of the fish at that site began hibernating during the second half of October as interpreted from the stomach fullness of fish. In contrast, the majority of the fish at Jackson Beach began hibernating two weeks earlier, during the first half of October. Finally, the dietary analyses of both sites suggested multiple hypotheses of life histories, including that the Pacific Sand Lance are selective feeders, and that their preferences vary with age.

Earthen Built
Residential Construction
People wanting to add natural building materials to their lives. Be it earthen plasters on their already existing homes or out-buildings, or adding an entirely new earthen structure to their land. I especially enjoy working with people open to something different and creative.
I am an artist, so I love working with people who are open to creativity and something different. However, I also love working on more traditional looking structures as well. My specialty is earthen plasters. I also build with cob, adobe, strawbale, clay wattle, stone, light-clay infill, cordwood, and more. Earthen benches and ovens are a great way to add something to your yard. Garden walls add privacy, shade, and can even include little seating alcoves. I just love a greenhouse or chicken coop built out of earthen materials. And of course, finishing your walls with natural materials is a nice way to bring earthen building into your home! I offer workshops as well as my professional services. Check out my website for more! Thank you and kindest blessings.

When babies are born prematurely, their lungs may not have had time to develop completely. It is important that doctors and medical staff monitor the status of these infants closely to help mitigate any complications or long term ill-effects.
Positive news for long term lung function of premature infants
Doctor alleged to have accidentally removed healthy ovary
When a 31-year-old woman was told by her doctor that she had a mass on her left ovary that appeared to be a cyst, she was rightly concerned. A second ultrasound indicated that the cyst was still present. The woman's obstetrician recommended that the woman undergo surgery to remove the cyst in order to avoid any future complications. An outpatient surgery was scheduled to remove the cyst.
Family of brain injured boy seeks help enforcing judgment
A 14-year-old boy was severely brain injured at his birth in 1997 is seeking assistance in enforcing a judgment against the hospital. During the mother's labor, she was administered Pitocen, a drug used to help induce contractions. The dosage of the drug was periodically increased and not adequately monitored. As a result, the mother began experiencing severe contractions that limited the blood flow to the young boy's brain.
Jury says physician's assistant's negligence caused mother's death
A jury in a medical malpractice case has determined that the failure of a physician's assistant to appreciate the severity of a new mother's medical condition led to her death. The lawsuit had also alleged that numerous doctors were also culpable for the incident. The majority of those doctors settled their claims out of court.
Medical malpractice verdict upheld, after timing of lawsuit questioned
As you may know, causes of action for civil lawsuits generally do not last forever. Statutes of limitation cut off the time when a person may file a lawsuit. One purpose of this is to encourage individuals who have been wronged to seek justice while evidence is still available and memories are fresh. In some situations however it may not be possible or feasible to bring a lawsuit within that time period.
Parents allege that surgeon's delay cost life of newborn
In the first hours and days after a baby is born a wide variety of medical complications can put the infant's health at risk. Fortunately when doctors and other medical staff properly monitor newborn's progress complications can often be identified and resolved with timely treatment.
What can happen when a birth is hijacked by medical staff
Many pregnant women take Lamaze classes because they would prefer to forgo an epidural or other intervention which may not always be necessary. These soon-to-be mothers often have a desire to allow the childbirth to proceed at a natural pace and only seek interventions in the case of fetal distress or other medical necessity.
Family seeks answers after newborn dropped on floor
There are few things in the world more delicate and vulnerable than a newborn baby and certainly nothing more precious. We've all heard new parents instructing family and friends to be sure to support the baby's head as they gently and lovingly pass the baby for someone else to hold. These instructions should not be necessary for trained obstetric nursing staff, but to the horror of one family they were seemingly not followed when a nurse allegedly dropped their moments-old child on the floor.
U.S. ranks worse than many other countries for infant mortality
In the United States there has historically been a sense that our health care system was one of the best in the world. This may be true in some areas as we do have some of the most advanced lifesaving technologies and practices. But a recent study by the World Health Organization shows that our fetal mortality rate ranks us as 40th.

Brooklyn ARTery
The Brooklyn ARTery is truly one-of-a-kind. Promoting Brooklyn Made products and local handmade art, the shop is a combination of crafts store, gift shop and gallery. Whether you are looking for something in particular, wish to browse local products or simply chat with one of the lovely owners (who know most of their guests and neighbors!), the Brooklyn ARTery is a peaceful and inviting haven.
Susan Siegel and Jocelyn Lucas Kirouac opened the store five years ago, after meeting in Ditmas Park and agreeing that a gift and art shop with a focus supporting the local community was a dream they both wished to pursue. Susan's strength is to spot unique items and fill niches that add to the community, while Jocelyn is a pro at picking the most eye-catching items when she is not designing custom cards for the ARTery.
Celebrating their fifth anniversary this fall, Susan and Jocelyn told us about their shop's story and why they love the diverse neighborhood of Ditmas Park in a short interview.
How did the ARTery start?
"Aside from 99 cent stores, there was virtually nowhere to shop for gifts in our neighborhood. We began with a craft market at the local farmer's market, where we also did DIY art classes to find out the needs of the local community. From that we created a store that would fill the void for all the gifting needs of the local community – from home decor to jewelry, toys, bath and body products, and everything in between."
How did you decide on the location?
"We knew we wanted to be on Cortelyou Road, which is the main commercial corridor in our neighborhood. Our first location was a pop-up because there was no permanent retail space open at the time. After our first holiday season, our current location opened up across the street.
We are now true believers in being on the sunny side of the street! Our renovations restored the huge front windows, added a skylight and exposed brick walls, and opened up the ceiling to create a lofty and inviting space."
What designers and artists catch your eye, and how do you choose what to sell in the store?
"We look for things that we haven't necessarily seen elsewhere. We source one-of-a-kind pieces and small design groups, and we love to work with local artists as much as we can. We attend trade shows, craft markets and flea markets, and search online to find the things that we feel are right for the ARTery."
What are some of the things one can find at the ARTery?
"Handmade jewelry from local designers in brass, ceramic, gold and silver at a wide variety of price points. Green bath and body products. Gorgeous scarves made from reclaimed vintage saris. Stylish vegan purses. The best selection of cards in Brooklyn. Brooklyn-themed t-shirts, tableware and soaps. Artisanal foods from honey and jams to chocolate and caramels. And so much more."
Do you have a good story about an artist, volunteer or customer?
"Chisa Tageki is a local designer originally from Japan who creates spectacular intricate jewelry some of which is featured in Japanese museums. She's been with us from when we first opened and her work is highly sought after.
This past year, Chisa needed to apply for a change of status in her visa to be able to stay in the U.S. permanently. We vouched for the originality of her work and her value here as a teacher and a maker. We all celebrated together when she got her green card!"
What inspires you both to open the store doors every day?
"We love that the ARTery is a center of community where people feel welcome, and local artists get to sell their work in their own neighborhood. We love to promote Brooklyn to the many tourists who visit our area. We also love being able to add extra value for our neighbors and customers by having events, tastings and demos in the store and bringing in Christmas tree farmers with amazing organic trees every year."

13,000 fans showed up today (8/4/12) at the Edward Jones Dome for the Rams first 2012 team scrimmage. The open practice session or "Fan Fest" lasted about two hours and 15 minutes with several live 11-on-11 periods and a rookie period following the regular practice. And unofficially a little time was made so that Rams fans could get autographs from their favorite players.
The following players did not participate in the scrimmage: rookie FB Todd Anderson, C Scott Wells, OT Rodger Saffold, OT Ryan McKee, RB Daryl Richardson, TE Lance Kendricks, and TE Deangelo Peterson.
Two wide receivers made some great catches and impressed onlookers: Brandon Gibson and Danny Amendola.
None of the QBs looked great throwing the long ball, but if its any consolation only one of these passes was picked off (by rookie CB Trumaine Johnson).
If you're a fan of comedian Jim Carrey you might be familiar with "the claw" (from Liar Liar). Well, Rams fans it's time to say hello to rookie kicker Greg Zuerlein and "the leg". This is no joke. He easily hit 2 field goals today from 59 yards and then just missed 1 from 64 yards.
We are looking to get strong now, but by 2015, the Rams will add five more first-rounders, three more second-rounders, and three more third-rounders. (As exciting as this is… bottom line as Sam Bradford goes… so go the Rams. Without an elite quarterback at the helm all the improvements in the world will not get us a championship.)
I know I said this before, but the NFL preseason begins Sunday when the Saints play the Cardinals in the Hall of Fame Game in Canton.
FOOTBALL!!! Go Rams!!!

How to create a CSR policy
Over the course of the last decade, companies of all shapes and sizes have focused increasingly on corporate social responsibility. In fact of the
In an industry that continues to be competitive and fast-growing, it's important for graduates to be aware of what Banking & Finance employers are looking for in graduate accountants. Graduates need to be able to show more than an accounting degree in a graduate job interview – whether you're starting out as a Graduate Finance Assistant or Graduate FX Broker, there are several key skills and attributes that will set you apart from the rest.
Every graduate accountant needs the capacity to work flexibly, no matter what field of accounting they're based in. You'll need to manage different aspects of accounts, which may involve a change of pace and tasks throughout the day. If you begin your graduate accounting career by working for a small business (as many do), you'll be working in a growing team, which will require adaptability. You'll need to balance your time between a varying number of clients; a feat which can be difficult if you're new to the profession.
You will need to mentor clients from the very beginning. While clients will have varying degrees of knowledge about accounts, it's likely you will need to explain complicated pieces of tax legislation on a regular basis, as well as help your clients understand why they are important.
With the introduction of 'Making Tax Digital', you will also need to learn about the different processes on the relevant software to help your clients overcome any difficulties they have with uploading their information to an online system.
Employers expect their accountants to be on the ball when it comes to industry news. You need to be aware of any new legislation to ensure each client's accounts are as tax efficient as possible. This may require you to go on the odd day course so you are up-to-date with all of the legislation and news. If you begin as a Junior Accountant, it's likely you'll work your way up through different exams and levels, which will require you to have even more of an understanding of industry news.
Paramount to becoming a successful graduate accountant is the ability to communicate clearly. This isn't just a skill required for communication between you and the clients – although it will be necessary then too. Communication within the office is vital in order to correctly process accounts and ask clients for the right information.
You'll need to liaise with both the sales team and the administration team in order to correctly complete accounts. This will mean you should be confident and comfortable to communicate with colleagues on a daily basis through email, phone and in person.
The upcoming 'Making Tax Digital' scheme from HMRC will soon be obligatory for all who complete a Self-Assessment. The scheme means that rather than completing a Self-Assessment return, self-employed workers, company directors and anyone in between will need to set up a cloud accounting account and use it to update HMRC on their personal income. While this might seem like a simple task, there are many clients who will be unfamiliar with cloud accounting software. In this case, many will turn to their accountants for help, which means you'll need to be tech-savvy to get the case solved.

Program and Policy Innovation in Administrator Preparation Programs in the United States
Dr. James A. Rabbitt.
This paper considers the current condition of school administrator preparation programs in the United States. It cites the research of 20 years of reform efforts which produced little improvement, and reviews the growing calls from throughout the country for the need for immediate improvement and specific change to meet the challenge of today's educational needs. Nationally-known, innovative administrator preparation programs are highlighted, compared and contrasted. These programs, developed by school districts, universities and non-traditional providers, seek to produce a "new" educational leadership with the skills to respond to increased diversity of students, staff and community, shared decision-making, collaborative leadership, supportive technology, mentoring of future school leaders and the on-going professional development of administrators for the improvement of student achievement. Public policy reforms at the national, state and local levels which foster the "new" leadership will be discussed as a platform for creating an improved leadership pool by heightening qualifications, creating alternative routes to certification and adopting state and national standards to guide policy and practice related to administrator preparation.

Willow Creek Outfitters
2013 Bow Hunts

Willow Creek Outfitter's
2013 Bow Hunt Report
It is now October and fall is here. The leaves are changing color and our rifle hunts will start soon. We just finished another fantastic bow season for mule deer and again it was an exciting one with many repeat clients and some great bucks harvested.
David Bartley (TX) was here two years ago and missed a buck but he was not going to let that happen to him this time! One arrow on day three of his hunt put his best buck to date on the ground, an old giant that scored 187"! Bill Dondero (LA) harvested a 177" buck with us in 2011 and made an excellent 58 yard shot to take a beautiful 166" this year. Ron Stuart took his first mule deer with a bow, a nice velvet buck that scored 169". Father and son, Rob and Robbie King (TX) were on their first mule deer hunt as well as their first outfitted hunt. By day two they each had harvested a buck and were thoroughly excited at the results of their first guided bowhunt!
After taking a nice buck with us last year, Carl Rossi (PA) brought up his friend Al Ceprano (PA) to try again this fall. On day two Carl made a terrific shot and bettered his 2012 buck he took with us with a big 176" typical. Al Ceprano on day four took his best mule deer to date, a 163" character buck with some neat looking points. Mike Kelly (WI) takes top honours with the best buck of the season, a 195" giant taken at 35 yards on the first day of his first ever mule deer bowhunt. Amazing!
Overall 12 bowhunters took 8 bucks with an average score of 171"! The average shot range was 43 yards and everyone had a shot except for Chris Morris (TX) who harvested a 180" buck with us in 2011 and was trying to better that but was unable to find one during his hunt.
Thanks to everyone who joined us this bow season and to the crew as well that made it all happen. We have four openings still available in 2014 for archery mule deer, so don't delay if this hunt is on your bucket list!
Watch our videos on YouTube. They will give you a feel for the country, animals and the way we hunt here at Willow Creek Outfitters where you will experience "Fair Chase Hunting at it's Finest"! I would like to extend a great thanks to both clients and guides for making the 2012 bowhunting season an unforgettable one!
Your Outfitter,
Andre van Hilten

2012 Hunting Season
Another hunting season is in the books, they seem to come and go faster every year! We had another exceptional year, a full slate of good clients and some great trophy animals that we could pursue. Conditions for the animals in this part of the province has been nothing short of amazing. The animals had no shortage of feed and once again we saw great antler growth on the bucks.
2012 Bow Hunt Report
We just wrapped up another very successful archery season here at Willow Creek Outfitters! We specialize in trophy mule deer hunts and had 14 bowhunters join us in 2012 on this exciting hunt. We invest endless hours every year scouting and patterning the mule deer before our clients arrive. This pays off huge once the season starts as we can spend less time locating the deer and more time stalking them.
2011 Hunting Season
Another season has come to an end here at Willow Creek Outfitters. Eleven years now that we have been outfitting here in southwestern Alberta and it was the best year I have seen for antler growth on our deer and beautiful color phased bears. Our hunters took 5 mule deer bucks that scored over 180" and 7 that were in the 170's!
2011 Bow Hunt Report
We just finished our archery mule deer hunts, and what a season it was! This was by far our best bow season yet, as far as clients harvesting bucks. With good moisture in the spring and early summer this area had quality antler growth! Of the 10 bucks our bowhunters took we have live video footage of 9 of them.

Today's full schedule of Major League games features six series finales involving 12 postseason contenders. The Mets and Tigers each have a chance to move into a tie for a Wild Card spot in their respective leagues, so there's sure to be drama throughout the day.
In a possible postseason preview, the Cubs and Giants meet one last time in the regular season this afternoon with another marquee pitching matchup on tap at Wrigley Field, where Johnny Cueto takes the mound for San Francisco in a rubber game against John Lackey and the Cubs.
Today's full schedule of Major League games features six series finales involving 12 postseason contenders. The Mets and Tigers each have a chance to move into a tie for a Wild Card spot in their respective leagues, so there's sure to be drama throughout the day.
And the best place to catch all the action is on MLB.TV.
MLB.TV Premium has returned with the same features as last year, and is only $24.99 for the rest of the season. This package has the best value and provides access to more than 400 devices and a free subscription to the MLB.com At Bat Premium app (a $19.99 value). It offers the best picture quality ever -- a new 60 frames per second -- for supported devices.
Here's what to watch for today in the Majors (all times ET):
Cueto, Lackey duel: SF@CHC, 2:20 p.m.
The Cubs bring the Majors' best record (87-48) into today's rubber game against the Giants, who lead the Cardinals by 2 1/2 games for the first National League Wild Card.
Lackey returns from the disabled list to make his first regular-season appearance against the Giants since 2009. The veteran right-hander has been better at home this season, going 6-4 with a 2.47 ERA in 13 starts compared to 3-3 with a 4.68 ERA in 11 outings on the road. Lackey, who went on the DL with a right shoulder strain suffered during his Aug. 14 start against the Cardinals, reported no issues after a bullpen session on Thursday.
Cueto will look to work deeper into today's game, as he went 4 2/3 innings against the D-backs in his last outing for his shortest start as a Giant. Cueto is 5-2 with a 2.66 ERA and a .203 opponents' batting average in his last 10 starts against the Cubs.
Stat that matters: The Giants own a 26-17 record in series finales this year.
Video: MLB Plus interviews Lackey about his health status
Rangers look to keep rolling against Astros: HOU@TEX, 3:05 p.m.
The first-place Rangers go for a sweep of the Astros behind Yu Darvish,as Texas looks to continue its dominance over its division rival. The Rangers, winners of seven straight overall, are 13-2 against the Astros this season.
Darvish is 4-3 with a 3.08 ERA in 11 career starts against the Astros and has 102 strikeouts in 73 innings against them. Those are the most strikeouts and innings pitched against any team in his career.
Collin McHugh takes the mound for Houston, which sits three games behind Baltimore for the second American League Wild Card. McHugh will look to turn things around after going 2-2 with a 5.13 ERA over his last nine outings. He's allowed six home runs during that span, and opponents are hitting .321 against him.
Stat that matters: Darvish has produced eight straight quality starts, which is the third-longest stretch by an AL starter this season.
Video: SEA@TEX: Darvish fans nine over 6 2/3 strong innings
Salazar, Tribe go for sweep: MIA@CLE, 4:10 p.m.
Danny Salazar gets the ball for the first-place Indians as they go for a three-game sweep of the Marlins, who remain three games behind the Cardinals for the second NL Wild Card.
The Indians have won five in a row, their longest win streak since reeling off 14 straight from June 17-July 1. Cleveland has won 14 of its last 17 games at Progressive Field. Salazar will pitch on six days' rest after striking out 10 and allowing two earned runs in 5 1/3 innings in his last start.
Tom Koehler will start for the Marlins, who have dropped seven of their last eight games. Koehler is looking to bounce back after yielding a season-high 10 hits, including two home runs, in his last outing to snap a string of seven quality starts.
Stat that matters: Cleveland is 54-33 (.620) in September and October since Terry Francona took over as manger in 2013, which is the second-best record in MLB in that span, behind only the Nationals, at 55-33 (.625).
Video: CLE@TEX: Salazar allows two runs, fans 10
AL Wild Card contenders clash: DET@KC, 2:15 p.m.
Two division foes in the mix for a Wild Card berth meet in an important rubber match at Kauffman Stadium. Detroit is one game behind Baltimore for the second AL Wild Card spot, while Kansas City is four games back.
Royals starter Edinson Volquez enters this game having thrown one quality start in his last seven outings. He's not reached the sixth inning since Aug. 14. Volquez worked seven shutout innings against the Tigers back on April 21, then allowed five runs in 6 1/3 innings against Detroit on June 18.
Tigers starter Daniel Norris has completed six innings once in five starts since returning to the rotation in early August. He held Kansas City to two runs (one earned) over 5 1/3 innings on Aug. 15, doing well to limit the damage on the six hits and four walks he allowed.
Stat that matters: Tigers slugger Miguel Cabrera is one homer away from his 10th 30-homer season, a feat 20 players have accomplished in MLB history. The only active players to hit the mark are David Ortiz (10) and Albert Pujols (13).
Video: KC@MIA: Volquez allows no earned runs over five
Mets closing in on Cardinals: WSH@NYM, 8:08 p.m.
The Mets will look to continue their climb up the NL Wild Card standings when they face the first-place Nationals in a rubber game at Citi Field. The Mets have moved within one game of the Cardinals for the second Wild Card.
The Mets caught a bit of a break in this game, as Nationals manager Dusty Baker decided to move Max Scherzer's scheduled start back to next week in order to get the ace some extra rest. Right-hander Reynaldo Lopez will start for the Nats in his first career appearance against the Mets. It's the sixth career start for Lopez.
Seth Lugo takes the mound for the Mets in his fourth career start. Lugo, who also made nine relief appearances this season, is 2-1 with a 2.55 ERA in three starts since joining the rotation on Aug. 19.
Stat that matters: Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper is hitting .351 (26-for-74) with three homers and 19 RBIs since returning to the lineup on Aug. 14 after missing time with a stiff neck.

I saw this tombstone whilst strolling through an old cemetery in Madoc, Ontario. I know nothing of the people or their family and mean no disrespect towards them. It just seemed like an odd name. Perhaps not a fellow you'd go to for investment advice. Just sayin'....

Odd Name
3 comments:
Funny foto find, friend! I'm a financial advisor/investment advisor so I find the tombstone particularly funny!ReplyDelete
Thanks for following my EAGAN daily photo blog from Minnesota
Thanks Leif! I appreciate your alliteration too!ReplyDelete
I agree it is an odd name. I wouldn't request an appointment if he were an investment adviser. But then again I would feel the same if his name was "stockwinner".ReplyDelete

Dear Dot,
I want you to know I'm leaving you. I'd love to use that old line, "It's not you, it's me," but unfortunately, it's you. I just can't count on you. I can't even remember how many times I've asked you to check in, only to be disappointed. And you're a dawdler - I got tired of asking you a question, only to have to sit around and wait for the answer. To be even more blunt, you're not sophisticated enough - I have fairly refined tastes, and you simply don't seem interested in all the finer things that I need to lead a rich existence.
Since you'll probably hear about it, I might as well tell you that I've met someone else. I don't want to mention any names, so I'll just refer to this other as "SF". Oh sure, SF isn't perfect, but we share a lot of the same interests, and we just have a lot easier time getting along. And yes, it's true, I've been visiting SF on the side for quite some time now, so this isn't just some fling. SF, frankly, is just a lot more mature than you are, and I need that.
I hope you're able to get over your problems. I'd like to see you succeed in life, if for no other reason than that a lot of my friends still hang out with you. All the best,
(With apologies to Don Box.)
