Economic development officials are proposing a reservoir on the White River about 50 miles northeast of Indianapolis that would be a catalyst for new investments and jobs and would include marinas, boat docks and restaurants.
"I think we have a good chance to get this project done if we have the political will," Rob Sparks, the Madison County Corporation for Economic Development director, told The Herald Bulletin.
Rob Freestone, a Chesterfield Town Council member said officials there are excited about the prospect. Town Clerk Deborah Dunham sees empty storefronts being replaced with thriving businesses. Throughout the area, many officials are at least interested in hearing more about the plan.
"At this point I am super positive about this," Anderson City Council President David Eicks said. "I think it has the ability to reshape Anderson, Chesterfield, Daleville and Delaware County."
Delaware County Commissioner Sherry Riggin called the proposed seven-mile long, 2,100-acre reservoir "very interesting," but said she's concerned about how relocations would be handled.
The Mounds Lake Reservoir would cost an estimated $300 million to $350 million to create. Sparks said the next step in the proposal process will be a series of public meetings for each of the affected taxing units. The meetings likely will be scheduled within 30 days, he said.
Sparks said in addition to spurring economic growth, the reservoir also could help relieve the impact of floods and drought through a 400-square-mile area of the White River's watershed.
Sparks estimated that it would displace about 400 homes, as well as several hundred thousand square feet of retail business space. Eminent domain could eventually be invoked to bring the project to fruition, but Sparks stressed that a strong community consensus is needed for the plan to succeed.
The owners of a mall and a restaurant that would both be displaced by the reservoir issued statements Friday in favor of the plan.
"This project has the potential to be a game changer for Anderson. We believe in Anderson and want nothing more than to see it prosper," said the Virgil Cook family, which owns the Mounds Mall.
The idea was first suggested by Ricker Oil Co. President and CEO Quinn Ricker during a Leadership Academy of Madison County class in 2010. Sparks was also a participant in that class. Ricker concedes he thought the idea was "nutty" when he first suggested it. But two weeks later, Sparks told him the concept, while massive, difficult and costly, was worthy of study.

Lindsay Lohan + Tina Fey Take 'Mean Girls' Reunion Selfie [PHOTO]by Michelle McGahan | PopCrush
Cady Heron and Ms. Norbury, together again!
Lindsay Lohan took to Instagram last night to share an adorable selfie with her former 'Mean Girls' co-star/teacher/Mathletes coach Tina Fey. 2014 may mark the 10-year anniversary of the clique flick, but we think that the stars look better than ever — especially Lohan, who looks more natural and relaxed than she has in years.
According to Entertainment Weekly, the sweet snap (which has since been deleted) was taken during a photo shoot for the mag's upcoming reunion issue — so we can't wait to see if any other stars of the film were in attendance. Eeek!
Of course, this isn't the first 'Mean Girls' reunion to take place this year. Lohan previously Instagrammed a pic with her former co-star Daniel Franzese (Damian), while Franzese reunited with Amy Poehler (Mrs. George) and Lizzy Caplan (Janis Ian) in a series of amazing photos.
In other Lindsay Lohan news, just five days ago, she basically handed the rights to her memoirs over to fellow former child star Mara Wilson, who kindly offered to ghostwrite them for her. Yep, that happened. Check out the tweet below:
Ill think about it! RT "@MaraWritesStuff: Please let me ghostwrite your memoirs, @lindsaylohan."

Mercedes-Benz hit the jackpot with CLS Shooting Brake
Judging from all the initial press reports it would appear that Mercedes has hit the jackpot with its CLS Shooting Brake. The second-generation saloon, or four-door coupe in Mercedes-speak, that preceded the Shooting Brake also got the thumbs up, and set the stage for a long-awaited alternative to the conventional premium estate car.
By Iain Dooley
With the basic CLS Shooting Brake consisting of two diesel models, it's clear that beneath the car's sleek exterior it will still be considered by many as a workhorse vehicle. Sure enough, the car's powered tailgate and wide, flat load bay ensure that it can swallow a fair amount of stuff - 590 litres of space in regular trim and 1,550 litres with the rear seats folded. It can't match the more practical, and less streamlined, E-Class but that won't be an issue for buyers seeking a more stylish yet still versatile alternative to a large box on wheels.
And as sure as day follows night, the introduction of a new Mercedes is often swiftly followed by a muscular AMG-tuned version. Mirroring the CLS four-door's high performance variant, the Shooting Brake also gains the very same AMG 5.5-litre turbocharged V8 petrol motor.
Mercedes might appear to be powering ahead with a slew of AMG-badged cars, but in the firm's defense there appears to be no shortage of demand. North America, Asia and the Middle East are enthusiastic customers even if Europeans wince at the price of fuel these days.
That said, Mercedes and AMG have made considerable improvements in this regard, and it's the main reason why power comes not from the old 6.2-litre V8 but a turbocharged 5.5-litre V8. Fuel consumption and emissions are down while the added push from the turbos delivers greater real world flexibility for low speed driving and overtaking.
On paper the car produces 557bhp plus a healthy 530lb/ft torque. Dragster-like behaviour is guaranteed thanks to those figures, and sure enough 62mph can be reached in 4.3 seconds and the limited top speed is the usual 155mph.
Despite this hooligan-like performance, fuel consumption is an impressive 28mpg. Granted, spirited real world performance will likely see that dip, while CO2 is an equally reasonable 235g/km.
On the road the CLS Shooting Brake delivers a surprisingly comfortable ride for something with so much potential. The option to switch between suspension settings gives you the flexibility to firm things up when conditions allow.
The now familiar AMG seven-speed sports auto transmission can be left in D for most of the time, while four modes offer increasing degrees of shift response plus there's the ability to play with a pair of chunky steering wheel-mounted paddles.
Explore the car's various settings and you can get it to behave or wag its tail like a drifting champion. With the latter progress is always predictable, which is doubly impressive for a car of this size. Playing it straight also reaps rewards; the CLS is surprisingly agile and feels much smaller than it really is. The car's steering is precise and, even in the firmest setting, the suspension does a good job of dealing with surface imperfections.
The switch to a turbo motor might have reduced the decibel count inside the cabin - good for relaxed motorway cruising - but it only takes a quick prod of the throttle pedal to change all that. The result is proof that, despite the need to chase down emissions and fuel consumption, the AMG engineers still know how to make fast cars fun to drive. That the CLS sounds good when at full chat is another plus point over some of its more clinical rivals.
For all the car's performance attributes, the CLS Shooting Brake just as easily appeals to your practical side. Like its four-door cousin, the Shooting Brake confidently swallows a full compliment of adults, while the rear doors open wide enough to make access and egress straightforward. The car's wide, flat load bay and easy-open tailgate further reinforce its versatile character.
In AMG tune Mercedes' CLS Shooting Brake is no go-faster trinket but a genuinely capable load-lugger for all but the most demanding of owners. Rapid to the point of being supercar-fast in the right hands yet versatile enough to justify its price tag if you only want one quick car in the household, sometimes a niche car can be capable of generating widespread appeal.

Last call to nominate schools for grants through America's Farmers
Grow Rural Education
public school districts for a grant up to $25,000
Send a link to a friend
17, 2014]
ST. LOUIS — The deadline is fast
approaching for farmers to nominate rural public school districts to
compete for a grant of up to $25,000 through America's Farmers Grow
Rural Education, sponsored by the Monsanto Fund. Nominations will be
accepted until April 6. Eligible farmers can nominate their school
district by visiting www.growruraleducation.com or by calling
This year, the program has expanded to 18
new counties, for a total of 1,289 eligible counties across 39
School administrators in nominated districts will have until
April 21 to submit their applications online. The application
website is also equipped to help answer specific questions about the
Grow Rural Education program overall and assist with the grant
writing process.
"As we work to grow our next generation of farmers, building a
strong math and science foundation is vital," said Linda Arnold,
Monsanto customer advocacy lead. "Working together with farmers and
rural school districts, we are building relationships that benefit
the community, with the ultimate goal of improving education."
The America's Farmers Grow Rural Education Advisory Council, a
group of approximately 30 farmers from across the country, will
review and select the winning grant applications. Advisory council
members were selected based on their passion for farming and
education, as well as experience in rural school districts.
Last year, more than 73,000 farmers nominated 4,024 school
districts, resulting in $2.3 million in grants to improve math and
science education in 181 districts across the country.
The America's Farmers Grow Rural Education program is part of a
broad commitment by the Monsanto Fund to strengthen farming
communities. The program launched in 2012, after a successful pilot
in Minnesota and Illinois, and has since awarded nearly $5 million
to school districts across the county.

The America's Farmers campaign is an advocacy and community
outreach program celebrating U.S. farmers through communications,
awards and special programs that highlight the importance of modern
American agriculture.
America's Farmers initiatives include:
America's Farmers Grow Communities, which supports rural
communities by offering farmers the chance to win $2,500 for their
favorite local nonprofit organization.
America's Farmers Grow Rural Education, which supports rural
education by offering farmers the chance to nominate local school
districts, which can compete for a $10,000 or $25,000 merit-based
grant to enhance math and science education.
America's Farmers Mom of the Year, which celebrates women in
agriculture by offering the chance to win up to $10,000 and the
title of "National Farm Mom of the Year."
America's Farmers Grow Ag Leaders, which launched this year in
Alabama, Georgia, Indiana, Nebraska, North Carolina and South
Carolina and aims to encourage the next generation to remain
involved in agriculture by offering students the chance to apply for
a $1,500 scholarship.

Real Salt Lake 1, New York Red Bulls 1 | MLS Match Recap
SANDY, Utah — Real Salt Lake and the New York Red Bulls both really needed a win on Saturday night to keep pace in their respective conferences.
Neither got it as the two teams battled to a 1-1 tie — RSL's ninth of the season and New York's 11th.
Both teams had plenty of chances. RSL had a dozen shots on goal and four on target; New York had six shots on goal and scored on its only shot on target. And there were numerous other opportunities that neither team could capitalize on for the win.
RSL took the lead in the 18th minute on a play that built off a corner kick. Javier Morales put the ball in and New York goalkeeper Luis Robles made a nice save, but the ball rebounded to RSL forward Joao Plata, who fired the into the far side of the net for his ninth goal of the season — tops on his team.
RSL came out strong in the second half, controlling the run of play. But in the 57th minute, it was the legendary Theirry Henry to the rescue for the visiting Red Bulls. Tim Cahill laid it off to Henry, who did the rest — firing the ball from about 22 yards out to the right side of the net — and made it look easy.
Nick Rimando's date with MLS destiny — or, at least, MLS history — will have to wait until at least Saturday. Henry's goal cost him the chance to tie the all-time record for MLS shutouts. He's been one short since April 19, the last time Rimando had a clean sheet.
RSL was somewhat fortunate to get out of the first half with the lead, as in the 36th minute, Rimando bobbled an Henry through ball to the feet of Ambroise Oyongo, who shanked his shot into the side netting.
The best chance either team had at full points came in the 71st minute, when RSL defender Chris Schuler hit a point blank header off a corner kick, only to see it cleared off the line by RBNY.
Moments later came what's sure to be the night's big talking point, as New York defender Jamison Olave seemed to grab RSL attacker Olmes Garcia below the belt. The two Colombians had been skirmishing all evening, but no card was shown.
RSL finished the night still in second place in the West, but have now won just two of their last 10 and are falling further behind both Seattle and LA in points per game. New York meanwhile, have won two of 11 and dropped below the red line into sixth place in the East thanks to New England's win over the Rapids earlier on Wednesday.
The Red Bulls are back in action on Saturday evening against those same Revs in a match at Red Bull Arena rife with playoff implications, while RSL will try to break out of their slump at Rocky Mountain rivals Colorado later that night.

If you are a fan of Blue Bell Ice Cream, you have no doubt found yourself wondering just who the people on their snack boxes are. The grinning construction worker, the girl-child in her mother's makeup, the farmer that looks like John Denver, the Problem Child greedily holding four Pop'N Fudge bars, and the way-too-cheerful mail lady have all greeted us as we open those glass doors in the grocery store's ice cream aisle.
For someone eating an ice cream sandwich, that postal worker's teeth were much too clean. Same goes for the construction worker with his Krunch Bar, who has a Jim Croce/Joel Osteen thing going on. Why was that Olivia Munn-looking brunette wearing heavy-duty rain gear holding the Mini Rainbows?
Jim Hayhurst is retiring from Blue Bell after spending the past two decades as the advertising manager from the ice cream company out in Brenham, which means he's one of the last people who know a lick of anything about these characters.
"Some of those cartons have now been around for over 20 years," he says. "Twenty years ago we weren't even sold in all of Texas."
Blue Bell is now available in 22 states, he says, going as far north as Virginia. If you really need your Homemade Vanilla fix but are out of their range, you can always order a few gallons from their website.
The faces were farmed out by a talent agency, he says, with some of the models coming from New York City. Some Texans would find it unsettling that the people who they have grown to know as brand ambassadors never even had a Blue Bell Ice Cream, aside from what they probably consumed during a photo shoot.
But fear not. Not everyone on the boxes were Yankees.
"The mail lady, the coach, and the construction worker were all from Houston agencies," says Hayhurst, which means that they could be your neighbor down the street. You've probably seen the coach, played by Blue Deckert before. He's done tons of TV work, most recently "Grey's Anatomy" and the "Friday Night Lights" series, where he played — of course — a coach.
"Remember, this was before digital photography, so it would take several hours of being under hot lights to get one picture," says Hayhurst. He says they chose from some 50 pictures to settle on the perfect one for a box of ice cream snacks.
"It can be a very tedious process when picking a 'face' for our snack cartons," says Hayhurst.
As for tracking them all down, that could be difficult since Blue Bell used so many talent agencies."We've had a few people show up for tours who say that they were on one of our boxes," he says. Can you imagine being on one of those tours and meeting the coach from the fudge bar box?
"We see the faces as a family when they are all in the case together," says Kelli Remmert, publications coordinator for Blue Bell.
Jenni Wailes, the face on the Blue Bell Country Cone box, came by for a factory tour in March 2008 with her husband and young son, some 15 years after her first box appearance, according to Remmert.
Fred Willis, the tuba player from the Mini Fudge Bars box, came by around the same time.
"I have been trying to get just one more box with my ugly mug on it ever since they discontinued the mini fudge bars," says Willis, now Reverend Fred Willis at the First United Methodist Church of Jasper since 2010. He was 21 when he shot the cover in 1992.
"I can tell you I was not from any talent agency. I was just a pure happenstance because of a friendship with a graphic designer named Robert Van Lenton and the advertising genius Lyle Metzdorf," he says. Metzdorf wanted Willis to get into acting after the photos were shot but instead Willis ended up going to seminary.
It was Metzdorf who was the brain behind the company's ad campaigns that made the ice cream a bigger icon, all from an office in Clear Lake.
"I would go in to the ad agency to visit Robert and Metzdorf just loved me for being a doofus," he says. "He took a picture of me and Blue Bell ended up selecting me for the box." It took four or five hours to shoot that single box and he got paid around $800.He's still an avid Blue Bell supporter.
The man who dressed as a referee for the Great Divide Bars box, model Billy Machupa, showed up a few months after that snack hit shelves in 2005 to visit. He's a real estate agent here in Houston.
Allison Ngo is the sleeping girl on the Dream Bar box. She got the gig when she was nine years old and modeling for the Page 713 agency here in Houston. She's currently a senior at the University of Texas at Austin studying Human Biology and working in Texas politics.
"When my boyfriend and I started dating and he found out about the box, he showed all of his friends the picture of the box on his phone and told everyone this was the new girl he was dating," Ngo says. "Of course, all of his friends thought he was a pedophile for dating a girl that looked like a young child. That was always really funny to hear."
Pamela Passmore, the mail lady, reached out to me after this story hit the web. She was my great white whale of this journey.
"The popularity and longevity of this really surprised me," says Passmore, an actor now living in Los Angeles. "It is still the Blue Bell box that most impresses my relatives."
"I have a picture of myself and Michelle Obama from a performance I gave at a fundraiser at Gwen Stefani's house in Bel-Air," she says. "Did they care? Nope. But mention that box…"
Passmore's mother even has it framed. The actress didn't know what the audition was even for when she was sent to it.
"The photographer at the audition had a Polaroid camera and he asked me to make silly faces, which I did. Next thing you know I was told to show up somewhere a couple days later, and they dressed me up like a mail carrier." Why are her teeth that white, even after chowing down on the ice cream sandwich?
My teeth really are that white, by the way," Passmore says. She's kidding.
The longevity of the Blue Bell box astounds her. Her friends who visit Houston make sure to take pictures of it when they are at the grocery store. They bring back boxes for her to see regularly.
"It sorta blows my mind that I am now writing to you about it," she says. "No matter what happens to my career out here, I hope I always have a place in the ice cream aisle," says Passmore. "God bless the folks at Blue Bell."

Memory FAQs
We offer the following categories of memory modules: All speeds: (SDRAM, DDR1, DDR2, DDR3) All capacity: 64MB – 8GB All applications: desktops, notebooks, servers, gaming platforms, apple series
Upgrading your memory is typically the easiest and least expensive way to upgrade your computer and significantly boost its performance. This is because the computer's RAM memory is its work space, or where all of the instructions it needs to act on are stored temporarily. A computer with more RAM can work more efficiently, as it does not need to retrieve information from the hard disk drive as often. A memory upgrade is particularly helpful for users who work with large files, have more than one program open at one time or use memory-intensive applications such as games or graphics and video editing software.
There are several signs to let you know when it may be time to upgrade your memory. If you see: Your mouse pointer display the hourglass or "wait" symbol for significant periods of time or Your computer seems to work more slowly than you expect or Applications are taking very long to open up, The reason is probably insufficient memory. When physical memory is insufficient, the system uses Hard Disk Space as memory. This is called "Virtual Memory". Since the access time of physical memory is in tens of nanoseconds while that of hard disks is in milliseconds, the system slows down considerably.
Yes, you can – but only if that they are of the same type. When adding memory, there will usually be at least one empty memory slot in which to insert the new memory. Consult the documentation that came with the computer to verify how its memory slots should be filled. If all the memory slots are already filled, then you can take out an older memory module and fill it with the appropriate new module, to meet the desired memory level
Effectively, yes. While additional memory will not directly increase the CPU's speed, it will reduce the time it spends waiting for information from the hard drive. RAM provides data to a CPU faster than a hard drive, so it will not take as long for programs to execute.
If you are getting an error message on the monitor like "a Non-System Disk error occurred", check to make sure that you do not have a non-bootable disk in the floppy drive or even the CD-ROM drive. If this is not the case, check that you did not accidentally bump into and dislodge any cables or power connectors within the case during the installation process. The last step before closing the case should always be to ensure that every cable and power plug is fully seated. If this also does not resolve the problem, make sure you have the correct memory for your computer. Try installing just the new module in the system to determine if it is compatible with your system. If the system boots with the new module, try shutting down and adding the other modules one by one to determine if there is a chipset incompatibility.
ECC stands for Error Correction Code. It is similar to Parity, only more advanced. It is able to detect multiple errors in data returned from memory and actually correct a 1-bit error. ECC memory has 8 extra bits in order to support the ECC. The system board to be used must also support ECC and all of the memory in the system must be ECC for it to be actively supported. Check your system board specifications to see if you can use ECC.
Unbuffered memory modules that do not have a register. That's good because this type of memory is faster and less expensive and is ideal for use on home computers. Buffered modules contain a buffer to help the chipset deal with the type of electrical load required when the system has a large amount of memory. Registered modules are unbuffered modules that contain a register, which helps ensure data is handled properly. Buffered and registered modules are typically used only in mission-critical systems such as servers.
CL stands for CAS (Column Access Strobe) Latency, which is the time taken to retrieve data from the module. CL2 and CL3 refer to the amount of clock cycles that it takes before the initial stream of data is sent. CL2 modules wait two clock cycles before sending data, while CL3 modules wait three clock cycles. Since they only wait for two clock cycles, CL2 modules are faster and thus usually more expensive. Some systems may require either CL2 or CL3 memory.
Not necessarily. Most high-end mainboards support dual channel memory. While it is recommended that you populate memory in matched pairs for optimum performance and compatibility, your mainboard should still work with mismatched memory.
Our modules are tested intensively for compatibility and reliability, first in our test labs by our qualified engineers, then by an independent third party testing agency in their compatibility labs. These tests ensure that customers will only receive properly tested and validated high quality products.
You can use our Online Memory Configurator Tool, to find the right memory for your mainboard. You can also check the manual or specifications for your mainboard and select the right module from the product page in our website.
Strontium uses major brand chipsets from Hynix and Micron in all their products. Our relations with top chip producers ensure that our modules will have the best performance, quality, price and availability. Every Strontium memory module is 100% tested at its rated specification and is backed with a lifetime warranty.
Yes you can install one 2GB PC667 and One 2GB PC800, but total effective operating speed of RAM will only PC667. However, it is always beneficial to install the same product grade if you are going to perform an upgrade to your current system.
Flash and Storage FAQs
We offer a range of products in Flash Cards (MicroSD, SD, MicroSDHC Class 2/6/10, SDHC class 10/6 MicroSD UHS card, SD UHS Card) and Storage Devices (iDrives, OTG Drives, USB Flash Drives, Solid State Drives)
This is mainly due to the Flash memory design, testing and formatting.
Your USB flash drive will work with most Windows operating systems without the need to install additional drivers. However, USB Flash Drives will not work with the Windows NT operating system as it does not support USB.
A SSD is a data storage device that uses solid-state memory to store persistent data. SSDs are different from traditional hard disk drives, which are electromechanical devices containing spinning disks and movable read/write heads. SSDs, in contrast, use microchips, and contain no moving parts. Compared to traditional HDDs, SSDs are typically less susceptible to physical shock, quieter and have lower access time as well as latency. Rotational latency in an SSD is zero, while seek latency is close to it. It can also maximize I/O data transfer performance immediately after I/O is requested. SSDs use the same interface as hard disk drives and are thus an easy alternative in most applications.
Our SSD drives support 1.5/3.0Gbps SATA I/II interface.
This is because your USB drive is a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 compliant device, which works best when plugged into a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 port. When you plug it into a Non-High Speed USB port, Windows will show this alert message. While you will still be able to use the disk, it will run at a reduced speed. In this instance, the transmission speed is unable to reach that of USB 2.0.
This is because there are several types of formatting. For example, when Windows formats a card as FAT32, that file system is chosen as a default – which might not be supported by some digital cameras. It is thus recommended to format a card with the digital camera before use. Check the user's manual or ask the manufacturer for instructions on how to format the card with the camera.
Our cards are compliant with a specification issued by each card association such as the SD card Association or CompactFlash Association. Therefore, they should work with the various types of electronic equipments which meet the specification. Though, you may still experience some problems due to the format issue. We recommend formatting the card with the camera before using the card.
Your card reader has to specifically designed to support the SDHC card format, as the various card formats are different in nature.
– Download the MicroSD card formatter (version 220.127.116.11) from this website >> https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/index.html
– Execute and install the apps and plug-in the affected MicroSD card to your computer system
– Select Format
– Proceed format with the following options; Format type -> FULL (Erase ON), Format Size Adjustment -> ON. Once completed, try the card again
Generally saying, is because 10% of 8GB were reserved for ECC purpose, so as to enhance the reliability of our products. That is why you see a difference. Actually no amount of space is lost. Generally, the capacity that is advertised (e.g. 8GB) is a decimal number. What the user see in the PC is a binary number – it differs in such that 1000 bytes in decimal equals 1024 bytes in binary. So the binary GB's are only about 95% of the real world decimal
In Windows words, 1GB=1024MB, while an HDD counts it as 1GB=1000MB, so Windows always reads less space than the manufacturer says. Plus, if the user has a large amount of small files and very large file system clusters, then he will expect massive space loss. Also depending on the user file system type (FAT, FAT32, NTFS etc), some of them can't read space larger then a certain amount. To fully and efficiently use all space, format into NTFS file system. This will have the smallest cluster size, though this it will slow down the performance.
With the SD card inserted to your computer system, Go to: Control Panel – Administrative Tools – Computer Management – Disk Management, to initialize the drive. Upon initialization, format the card under the Disk Management environment. If everything goes well, then there is no problem with the SD card and it is functioning well
Insert the drive to the host system and relocate the data to a new location.
Disable the password and uninstall the LOCK234 apps from the host system.
Remove the USB drive from system and pause for at least 5 secs before reinserting the unit back.
Ensure the system can access the data drive without any password required. If not, repeat the above steps.
Format the data drive and copy back the required data.
Before you shift your MicroSD card between devices, it is advisable to take backup of the data inside the card to your Computer, to ensure that data won't be compromised during the transfer.
Download the software 32GB USB Recovery.exe from our downloads section or click here.
Backup all the data in your USB to a secure folder in your computer, before executing the tools with the drive inserted to the system. This tool will re-initialize the unit to it original working condition. The tool should be Run as Administrator and the user should select the 'Super Recovery' option to retrieve the unit, if normal option wont help
Please note that this tool will work for 32GB Bold USB Drives with BAH Solution only. This can be verified by checking on the marking on the USB connector. For issues with other models, please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com
Default XP system can only support NTFS for capacity larger than 32GB.
In order for XP to make full use of the flash drive larger than 32GB, the XP system needs to be patched with a patch file, so that before format, user can select this 'exFAT' table to format the drive.
Install the Windows XP update from this link to add support for the exFAT file system format. After you install this item a system restart is required. Once restart is complete, user can proceed to select exFAT to format the flash media.
There is a Lock switch on the left side of the SD card. Make sure the Lock switch is in unlock position. You will not be able to modify or delete the contents on the memory card if it is locked.
If the Lock switch is loose and moves easily It is likely the switch is sliding to the locked position as the card is placed in your host device. In this case the card will need to be replaced.Please contact us for RMA
To access the data in the OTG USB drive / OTG card reader, the Android host device need to have some sort of "File Manager" apps or download one from the Play store and access
Usually for such problem, it might be due to the fact that the mobile device does not support OTG. To know if the host device recognize OTG USB or not, user can download 'USB host diagnostic" tool from Play store. It will analyse if the host device supports OTG feature or not and you can decide.
The reason can be the same as stated in point 19 or normally happened if the host device went through an OS update especially to a recent Android version. The mobile device maker had "omit" the OTG support in the new OS revision. We are constantly updating the list in our website and it's not final. Please refer to device manual before making the purchase.
Formatting of OTG USB USB drive / OTG card reader is the same as normal formatting of USB using computer or Android host. For OTG card reader, do make sure a microSD card is inserted, before you do the format.
Most of the Android mobile devices come with a "Unmount" command under the Device storage segment. Make use of this command in order to safely remove the OTG USB drive / OTG Card reader from the device.
This is a built-in command feature embedded in the Android OS. User should follow through or press the return key to bypass.
Usually for third party format tool, they will provide step by step interactive prompt, which will guide user on 'how to' use the tool. User need to follow through and the whole format process should be done without a problem.
iPhone could only support FAT32 file system. The 64GB iDrive was preconditioned in FAT32 instead of exFAT. You will need to download this tool from this link to condition the iDrive to FAT32 in order to work properly.

With all due respect to our elders, there's something about a love story between two old folks that really melts our hearts. (The end of The Notebook, anyone?) We were reminded of this upon reading an instantly legendary New York Times wedding announcement celebrating the marriage of 97-year-old Ada Bryant and 86-year-old Robert Haire.
Ada and Robert, a widow and widower respectively, met at a Delaware retirement community, where their relationship evolved from friendship to romance over a series of lunch dates, and, eventually, sonnets slipped under each other's doors. (Note to modern men, we wouldn't hate this.) They both confessed they hated eating alone at the retirement home. (And after reading that, we confess that we basically started crying.)
"She loved having someone to talk to again," Ada's daughter told The Times of her mom falling for Robert. "Since my father died, she just didn't have someone to talk to in the deepest sense."
To see love blossoming between octogenarians (and nonagenarians) appeals to the inner romantic in each of us. It reminds us that love, and our desire for love, never dies. Who among us (with the exception of George Clooney) doesn't dream of a love that will last forever, through thick and thin, someone who will reteach us the alphabet if we ever, God forbid, had a stroke, like 82-year-old John Allen did for his 70-year-old girlfriend Linda Alexander, they of the viral Facebook photo?
As hard as it may seem to find The One, it isn't too late even at 70 or 80, the ages of Sam and Eve, the cinephile couple in the Times' most recent Modern Love column. They dated, ran marathons, and made out on her couch! Instead of viewing our grandparents as little kids, (which we tend to do because they really are so cute), Sam, Eve, Ada and Robert remind us that the elderly still desire romance, even sex, according to reports of retirement home trysts (and unfortunately, STDs.)
Nope, dating doesn't get any easier, Robert assures the world.
"I was desperately trying to strike a balance between too timid or bold," he said of courting Ada. "I didn't want to mess things up."
Nor does pushing 100 years old mean Ada was any more traditional than we are. Props to (feminist?) Ada, who, the Times notes, "is keeping her name."

March Is Assam Month
Hold on. Don't go running off to check your calendar. As far as I know this is the only place where Assam Month will be observed.
What's it all about? Nothing special, really. I just decided that it might be nice to narrow my focus every now and then. Since I'm quite fond of Assam tea I thought that would be a great way to kick things off.
So be sure to tune in as the vast majority of March's content will be Assam related. If you've got tips on something that might be of interest leave a comment and I'll check it out. If you're a merchant and you'd like to provide a sample of Assam tea for review, let me know. I've got a heap of samples coming from Upton, but you certainly can never have too much Assam tea on hand.

Is there a particular brand of Assam tea that you'd recommend? I'd like to give a try.
- William I. Lengeman III said...
I recently reviewed an Assam from Mangalain Estate, which was quite good. I got it from In Pursuit of Tea. I'll be reviewing a lot more Assam in March, so be sure to check back. Upton Tea Imports had about 60 varieties, at last count, and since they offer sample sizes you can experiment on the cheap.
- Tea Fiend said...
Oh, this is going to be great! I can hardly wait to see what you try and what you think of it.
I drink a couple (large, 12 oz.) cups of Assam every morning, usually with a splash of milk and no sugar. Sometimes I'll have another cup of Assam when I get to work, plain, before switching to other tea varieties for the rest of the day.
A couple of my favorite Assam teas are Hazelbank and Rembeng estates but with so many to choose from, I try new ones all the time.
- William I. Lengeman III said...
What a coincidence. Rembeng is one of the teas I'm going to review. I just broke the seal this morning and had a cup. Good stuff.

Judge Milton Tingling, slayer of nanny bureaucrats
Judge Milton Tingling's punch lines in ruling against Mayor Michael Bloomberg's big-sugary drink ban: "It applies to some but not all food establishments in the city. It excludes other beverages that have significantly higher concentrations of sugar sweeteners and/or calories on suspect grounds, and the loopholes inherent in the Rule, including but not limited to no limitations on refills, defeat and/or serve to gut the purpose of the Rule."
In addition, Tingling said, the city's Board of Health simply didn't have the authority to promulgate such rules. Only the legislature or city council have that right. Otherwise, the board's "authority to define, create, mandate and enforce [would be] limited only by its own imagination," and "create an administrative Leviathan."
Hear, hear, judge!

Cocaine, Marijuana, Opiates, Amphetamine (300 C/O), Oxycodone, and Ecstasy
Oxidants (Bleach), Specific Gravity, and pH
The iCup drug screen test 6 panel AD is the simplest, self-contained one-step drug test with adulteration. It offers a completely closed system for total urine specimen integrity and easy collection and the clear construction gives optimum observation of urine specimen. As a single unit with no dipping or pouring, the results develop quickly within the sealed unit. You may also photocopy the results allowing you to maintain a visual record of the test.
With the iCup drug screen test 6 panel, the results are visible within minutes the indication of one line (positive), two lines (negative), and no line(s) in the control is an invalid result. Since this device is a zero exposure, leak-proof, and tamper-proof system, it remains closed until it is properly disposed of.
To ensure specimen integrity, a temperature strip is located on the back of the testing cup. A quality control device is also built into the test itself and will display a red line in the control region (C) to be considered an internal procedural control. It confirms sufficient specimen volume, adequate membrane wicking, and the correct procedural technique has been done.
What's included? The iCup drug screen test 6 panel AD kit comes with cup, security seal, and drug screen result forms that show a diagram of the 6 panel cup and gives an example of positive, negative & invalid results along with the names of each drug and their abbreviations making your job easier! Not to mention a product insert, a step by step instruction display for your staff.
This test has been designed to detect the presence of drugs at the following SAMHSA (NIDA) suggested cut-off levels for positive results.
Does a faint line indicate a negative result?Yes, faint lines DO indicate negative results. The shade of color in the test region (Drug/T) will vary, but it should be considered a negative result whenever there is even a faint colored line. Any indication of a line (even faint) is a negative result.
Is there specific training required to administer these drug tests?Although there is no official training required to administer the tests, procedure cards are provided as well as, instructional videos, and drug test interpretation quizzes free of charge.
Are any of your drug tests FDA Cleared?All of our urine tests have an FDA 510k clearance except for the new K2 Test Kit, which is waiting for FDA 510 (k) clearance.
Are there products that can be used in the tests to give a false negative? What can be done to avoid this?Although there are only a small handful of products that can be used to change the result of an impending test, there are validity screens available which can detect these adulterants. Some are integrated into the tests, such as the iCup, which has built-in adulteration available, and we also have individual adulteration strips.
Does the product need to be disposed of in any special way, such as a bio hazard bag?Urine and oral drug screens do not pose a bio hazard risk and can be disposed of in regular waste receptacles.
What is the minimum amount of specimen needed for a conclusive test result?It is always important to collect a sufficient amount of specimen in case of a non-negative result. The confirmation laboratory requires a minimum of 15mL of the specimen but prefers 30mL for urine testing.
Is there any specific way these products need to be stored? Do they have to be refrigerated?All drug test devices can be stored at room temperature up to the date of expiration printed on the individual foil pouch. They cannot be stored in extreme heat or cold and must remain sealed in the foil pouch until use.
Is it possible to cheat the iCup drug screen by substituting or adulterating the specimen?No. The iCup A.D. contains a specimen validity test or SVT strip that verifies the validity of a specimen. The SVT strip checks for oxidants, specific gravity, and pH in the specimen. For example, if someone tries to substitute water for urine, the specific gravity indicator will show an abnormal reading.
How accurate are the test results?Laboratory test results for drugs of abuse have indicated a greater than 97% accuracy when used according to the step-by-step instructions that are provided with the test.
Are there any legal medications that can trigger positive results?Yes. The most common problem is the pseudoephedrine in many over-the-counter sinus and cold medications, which can cause a positive result for methamphetamine. A GC/MS confirmation, as well as an MRO review, is necessary to determine the source of the positive result. Some forms of the drugs we test for may be available legally under prescription as well.

A visual exam of the penis and anus is most
important to diagnose
genital warts in men. A magnifying glass may be used
to help locate abnormal tissue.
A physical exam may be done
A physical exam often is the only test needed to diagnose
genital warts. Some doctors will apply an acetowhite test to make the warts
more visible. Your doctor may apply a vinegar solution (weak acetic acid) to
the skin to show the difference between normal and abnormal tissue. A slight
burning sensation may occur when the acetic acid is applied. The acetowhite
test is not routinely recommended to confirm genital warts.
Findings of the physical exam may include the
Genital warts are not found.
But HPV may be
present even when the visual exam does not locate any warts. HPV can be present
in tissue that appears normal.
Genital warts are found on or around the penis, scrotum,
or anus.
Treatment is based on:
A sample (biopsy) of
tissue may be taken if genital warts cannot be positively diagnosed with a
physical exam. A biopsy can confirm an HPV infection.
Many men do not notice that they
have genital warts, even when the warts are visible.
genital warts does not cure a human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. The virus
may remain inactive in the body after warts are removed. A person treated for
genital warts may still be able to spread the infection. Condoms may help
reduce the risk of getting HPV infection.

Eating and Losing Weight Like a Man
Diet Revolution
It's not fair. Your husband says, "Gee, maybe I could stand to lose a few," and voilà, he's suddenly five pounds lighter. You count every calorie, deep-six goodies like cookies and ice cream, and sweat on the treadmill every day. But all you have to do is touch a fork that once touched a piece of cheesecake, and the needle on your scale shoots up again.
The equal rights movement has finally reached the diet revolution. Here, we blast open men's secrets to staying slim and tell you how to steal their macho maneuvers.
Macho Maneuver #1: Men Stress Less
Have you ever heard your hubby say, "I just ate three M&Ms now I have to run on the treadmill for 20 extra minutes?" Most likely, no.
Believe it or not, your husband's relaxed attitude toward dieting is one secret to his slimming success. The high level of restraint women display when it comes to eating can actually be their downfall. "When women diet, they get too focused," says Shawn Talbott, Ph.D., director of the nutrition clinic at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City, and author of The Cortisol Connection: Why Stress Makes You Fat and Ruins Your Health — and What You Can Do About It (Hunter House). "It's good to be aware of what you're eating and how many calories you're taking in, but if you get stressed out over every little morsel, that goes against you and your weight-loss efforts."
In fact, a study shows that women who have high dietary restraint — for example, they constantly say no to their favorite foods — have higher levels of the stress hormone cortisol, which causes the body to store fat in the midsection.
How to Master This Man Move: Hand Off the Stress
Forget about weighing your food down to the last nanogram. A more relaxed attitude toward dieting will keep stress levels down and the pounds off. To nix the obsessive calorie counting while still eating in moderation, Dr. Talbott suggests using your hands as a portion control device at each meal:
- Hold your hand out and spread your fingers as wide as you can; that's how many fruits and veggies you should pile on your plate.
- Use your tightly closed fist as a guide to how much starch to eat, such as oatmeal, pasta or bread.
- Note how large your palm is. Your protein serving should be that size.
- Make an O.K. sign with your fingers. The circle made by your thumb and forefinger is about the amount of added fat to have.
"By using this method, you'll be getting about 1,500 calories daily without fat, calorie or carb counting," says Dr. Talbott. "It's a huge relief for people. Food isn't the enemy anymore. When that adversarial role goes away, stress levels go down and so do the pounds."
Macho Maneuver #2: Men Snooze More
If you're like many women, you're wide awake in the middle of the night worrying while your husband snoozes blissfully beside you. "Women tend to report more problems with insomnia," says Carl E. Hunt, M.D., director of the National Center on Sleep Disorders Research at the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Maryland. Skimping on sleep leads to an increased tendency to store calories as fat and makes you crave sweet, fatty foods.
How to Master This Man Move: Get More ZZZ's
Tips from Dr. Hunt on getting enough sleep:
- Don't try to force yourself to sleep. If you've been sleepless for more than 15 minutes, get out of bed and do something relaxing like reading a book.
- Turn the clock to face away from you before turning in. Lying in bed watching the minutes tick by is counterproductive.
- Try to maintain a regular sleep schedule, even on weekends and vacations.
- Avoid caffeine and alcohol within four to six hours of bedtime, because these substances can keep you awake.
Macho Maneuver #3: Men Pooh-Pooh Perfection
Sure, you'd love to go for a walk, but you don't have any walking shoes. So you head to Foot Locker, but it's closed so you decide not to take that walk after all.
Women tend to be perfectionists. Men, on the other hand, don't get bogged down in the details. They just take action. "Men go to the gym and do their thing and it doesn't matter to them what they look like," says Pamela Peeke, Ph.D., M.P.H., a metabolism expert in Bethesda, Maryland.
How to Master This Man Move: Don't Think, Just Do It
Dr. Peeke suggests that women take what she calls the Peeke Pledge: I will try not to ruminate, stress over or get anxious about taking care of myself. Instead, I will just do it. "There is healing in action. You don't heal by ruminating, you heal by doing," says Dr. Peeke. "Take a first step and don't worry."
Macho Maneuver #4: Men Get Pumped
Not only do men have more muscle mass than women (thanks to the male hormone testosterone), men are good at pumping up what nature gave them. And that translates into a leaner figure because pound for pound, muscle burns more calories than fat. In fact, each pound of muscle burns 30 to 50 calories per day, while one pound of fat burns only two to three a day, according to Cedric Bryant, Ph.D., chief exercise physiologist at the American Council on Exercise. And since weight training increases muscle mass, it adds up to more calories being burned at rest.
In addition, a moderate 40-minute weight-training session uses all the carbohydrates that are stored in your muscles and raises your metabolism rate between 20 percent and 30 percent for four to six hours after the session, says Melyssa St. Michael, C.P.T., C.N.C., a personal trainer in Bentonville, Arkansas, and co-author of Becoming a Personal Trainer for Dummies (Wiley). And because your body uses all of its stored carbohydrates during your weight-training session, it starts burning your stored fat for energy instead.
How to Master This Man Move: Build Your Muscles
To burn more fat and get your metabolism moving, St. Michael suggests doing strength training two to three times per week for 30 to 40 minutes. Beginners should start with one exercise per body part (chest, shoulders, back, biceps, triceps, stomach and legs), with three to four sets of each exercise and 45 seconds to one minute in between sets. You should be able to do between 15 and 20 reps with the weight for each exercise; if you can easily do more, the weight is too light. Make sure to have at least one day of rest between sessions.
Macho Maneuver #5: Men Don't Beat Themselves Up
"When a man notices the number on the scale has crept up, he says to himself, O.K., I'm up 20 pounds. Time to get rid of this weight," says Dr. Peeke. "When a woman sees that the pounds have snuck on, she says to herself, I'm fat and ugly. I'm not sexy. How can my husband bear to look at me?"
Such negative self-talk only makes weight matters worse. "When a woman has toxic stress — stress associated with helplessness, hopelessness and defeat — she ends up feeling overwhelmed," explains Dr. Peeke, author of Fight Fat after Forty (Penguin). "This allows cortisol levels to rise, which overstimulates the appetite."
How to Master This Man Move: Think Positively
Turn your negative self-talk into positive self-talk. "Instead of saying, Gee, I only walked a quarter of a mile today, say, I managed to get in some exercise today. You go, girl," says Dr. Peeke. "Instead of telling yourself, My thighs are too fat, say, I have strong, curvy legs." Dr. Peeke also suggests taking a few minutes several times a day to regroup, organize your thoughts and think positive things about yourself and what you've accomplished that day.
Macho Maneuver #6: Men Leave the Cooking to You!
If yours is like most families, after you get home from work you prepare dinner for your husband and kids, tasting and nibbling to make sure that the seasonings are just right. Your husband, on the other hand, waltzes into the kitchen once the food is cooked, downs his dinner and helps clean up afterward. Nibbling? None. Even in this age of two-income households, the burden of cooking falls largely on women, and women tend to tie their identities in with food preparation.
"It's true that food is a wonderful gift to give to your family," says Lonnie Isaacson, R.D., nutrition specialist in the Health Education Department at Kaiser Permanente Northwest in Portland, Oregon, who conducts weight-loss classes at the company. "But at the same time, there's a lot of pressure to provide your family with cakes and cookies and other high-calorie treats. It's also risky because you can consume a lot of calories during food preparation."
How to Master This Man Move: Get Out of the Kitchen
Nix the meal-prep nibbling by sharing cooking responsibilities with your husband and kids. "All family members can help in planning and preparing quick, healthy meals and snacks that match their preferences and fit into their busy schedules," says Isaacson. "Time needs to be scheduled for creating a simple menu plan, cooking, shopping and cleanup. Keep it easy and flexible."
Macho Maneuver #7: Men Get with the (Computer) Program
Men are more comfortable with technology than women and are more apt to use it as a weight-loss tool.
"I find that men are much more likely to come to class with their Palm Pilots and foldable keyboards and be excited that there's software that can be helpful to them in record keeping," says Isaacson. Computers, the Internet and personal digital assistants are amazing awareness tools. "If you have a device that you can use to enter the foods you've been eating and your physical activity, then, at a glance, you can see where you are for your caloric intake and caloric expenditure," Isaacson says. "And it's easy to make good choices the rest of the day to stay within this limit."
How to Master This Man Move: Get Wired
Isaacson recommends these Web sites:
- FitDay.com has a free online service that lets you track your foods, exercises, weight loss and goals.
- A free body mass index calculator, frame size calculator and more valuable tools can be found at www.HealthTech.com/ education/bodycalculators.
- CalorieKing.com features an online weight-loss support group, as well as diet and exercise plans, a body mass index calculator, an online food and exercise diary, and nutritional information for over 30,000 generic and brand-name foods (including over 150 fast-food restaurant chains). Some features on the Web site are free; others require a membership fee.
- A pedometer helps you keep track of how many steps you take in a day as you work, do your shopping and chase after the kids. Your long-range goal for fitness should be 10,000 steps daily. You can buy a good pedo-meter at any reliable sporting goods store.

Game #155: Jays at Yanks pregame
Let's play nine…
Toronto (78-76) at New York (89-65)
at 1:05 p.m. ET at Yankee Stadium
Today's lineups:
Reed Johnson, RF
Russ Adams, 3B
Alex Rios, CF
Matt Stairs, DH
Aaron Hill, 2B
Gregg Zaun, C
Adam Lind, LF
Curtis Thigpen, 1B
John McDonald, SS
PITCHING: RHP Dustin McGowan (11-9, 3.84 ERA)
Johnny Damon, LF
Derek Jeter, SS
Bobby Abreu, RF
Alex Rodriguez, 3B
Hideki Matsui, DH
Robinson Cano, 2B
Melky Cabrera, CF
Doug Mientkiewicz, 1B
Jose Molina, C
PITCHING: RHP Mike Mussina (10-10, 5.01 ERA)
NOTES: Shaun Marcum is done for the season. He suffered a torn meniscus in his right knee and is having surgery on Wednesday or Thursday. The recovery time is roughly four to six weeks before Marcum can begin his offseason training. That puts a sour end to a stellar season for the Jays starter. … DH Frank Thomas (right knee) was held out of the lineup as a precaution, but he said he should be fine to go on Monday. … Toronto manager John Gibbons said LHP Scott Downs (back strain) isn't available today and is considered day-to-day going forward. … SS John McDonald was back in the lineup after missing four games with a lower abdominal strain. … RHP Casey Janssen wasn't available out of the bullpen on Saturday due to a sore right shoulder, but he's fine for Sunday, if needed.
BREAKING EVEN…Toronto needs to post a 4-4 record over its final eight games to finish the season above .500.

That's too bad for Marcum; but good news on both Thomas and Downs. We now have 4 guys under the knife with Glaus, Wells, Overbay and Marcum I do not remember a Blue Jays team ever getting so ravaged with injuries as this team this year.
I have a real bad feeling a good deal of these injuries are due to a non existant set conditioning program from the Jays. Arnsberg's comments a week or so ago when he blasted Marcum on his conditioning program, which confirmed there's no set program from the Jays, concerned me.
Before all these guys take off at the end of the season they should meet individually with Gibby and a conditioning staff and presented with a recommended conditioning program for the off season. The players should be asked to report monthly results to either Arnsberg or Butterfield, depending if they're a pitcher or positional player.
Why this hasn't been done before is beyond me. But if it isn't, don't be surprised if we go through the same injury fiasco next year.
wash your mouth out with soap [gibby] it's "ABNER".
But your right they may need a new approach to the way they have been conditioning some of the players.
Also I noticed Jordan gave a small amount of praise to bosox for instigating interest in this blog but what he missed was the fact that if it wasn't for you engagin him in the first place he would have disappeared so the praise should go to you.
I'm bad. it's Abner, Abner, Abner. lol
Come on guys, we got Mussina on the ropes finsh him
I told you, Lind was getting to that high and outer dish fastball. Sooner or later pitchers will make another adjustment and try him inside again, and he will kill them
Thigpen has been looking good as lind has.
thigpen has needed to play. McGowan doesnt have his A game yet today
Not bad for a AAA team.
Don't give it back now Chops.
ALl chops has to do is keep it close and hopefully still in the lead until we get to their bullpen, and the way Mussina has looked so far, that might not take too long.
**** it, you can't walk two Yankees in the same inning and win
We need a DP
They have to take chops walker out of this game.
no, like it or not, we need im to eat ups some innings-hopefully 5
Maybe we're paying the price for McGowan going so long in his last 3 outings.
I mean Chops, lol
He could use a rest-so we need a long inning on Mussina
pigpen again move over zaun
ok JM be a hero
The ump is an idiot.
carp-Zaun caught. He should never have been sent.
zaun was not tagged by the catcher.
If they leave chops in we lose.
****, another walk. If Chops is going to get through 5, he needs to get through this innings with few pitches, A walk is not a good start
Cheated again, Zaun not tagged
Tampa 3 Boston 0
do you guys both think Zaun was safe?
He has to get sharp in a hurry.
Nice inning-he should be good to go 5
Now lets get some runs for Chops and give him a rest. lol
The replay shows he was safe by 6in,but your right he never should have been sent.
Tampa Bay 4 Boston 0
Looks like the Rays like Wakefield.
This just in: C Sal Fasano is scheduled to have surgery to "clean up" his injured right knee, the Jays just announced. That's a whole lotta busted knee news here in the Bronx.
were is bosox the missed place glory grabber,lol.
Jordan-ya got to be kidding-another one.
Garry-Bosox has his head down, he's praying for the Sox to win.
Too bad Rios and Johnson havent worked the count with Mussina like Adams has today. If they had of, he'd be outta there and we'd be in their pen.
Of course it also doesn't help that the 3 of them are 0-9.
Garry-grab a bat laddy you're gonna pinch hit next inning. lol
Another walk-Chops hasn't looked as sharp today and his velocity is down, I think we're definately seeing the results of having him go so long in his last 3 outings.
Get him outta there, he's done
Come on Abner-what the **** is wrong with you-get him outta there-he's been done for an inning.
8 players had or will have surgery this year.
johnson back.
overbay hand twice.
zaun hand.
mcgown knee.
sal knee.
glaus foot.
wells shoulder.
BJ arm.
You forgot Romero and Marcum
Oh I think you listed McGowan instead of Marcum
I meant marcum not mcgowan opps.
And Chacin
Over the last inning Mcgowan's fastball lost 5-8 mph-which shows he's tired. Are these guys sleeping?
Imagine having to go through next year with this idiot in charge-and expect to what-climb back up to 2nd place.
Please-no way we make the playoff's as long as Abner's here-not possible
Do me a solid and ask JP to fire gibbons [abner] and then resign.
Or just ask him to read your blog.
I have been saying that for a long time you can't win with an idiot.
gsumner you wanted their bullpen I think they wanted ours.
Hemmi and indigo where are you two.
towards the end of the 4th inning Chops fastball was down to the high 80's to 91-92-a long way from normal.
Everyone in the stadium knew he was done.
But our brain dead, numbskull team of Whitt and Abner left him out there to walk the first two of the 5th.
I can hear the after game mumble now. yea gown dint hav his good staf, but we butled back, toug team dos yunks.
Well Tallet has always had trouble coming in with men on, he's been great starting off an inning.
How about dimwhitt for whitt.lol,
works for me. lol
What we caught someone stealing. Don't give him bail throw the book at im.
Zaun threw out two today must be a record.
I'd bet the butts in Bosox nation are getting tighter. We're losing and they're behind the Rays 5-3 in the bottom of the 7th.
Dice K gave up 5 in 6 2/3 innings yesterday after 6 days of rest and Wakefield gave up 4 today in 5 innings.
After Beckett their starters are looking awful weak. Not a good way to start the playoffs.
That might be a year record for Zombie. lol
don't bank on this guy,lol,
Banks is throwing 87-88 mph slop fastballs and still walks him. What is he a Tower's clone?
This is going to be batting practise for the Yanks.
No wonder he stank in AAA-why bring him up?
This game is not worth watchin.
Well they might as well leave him out there and save the pen for tommorrow
Banks is a waste of skin.
If this kid is still out there A-Rod might hit one out of Yankee stadium
Hey, is there some life in our Stairs?
Tampa Bay 5 Boston 4-final
new york ???? toronto 5 final.
look at this hog I'll have another helping of roids please.
awh **** I wanted to see A-Rod hit against banks
Of course Kennedy isn't a whole lot better-another batting practise pitcher.
Nice play by Thigpen
What kind of a move was that to bring overbay into the game he can't hit with that hand anyways so why take a chance on hurting him.
Who's idea do you think it was dimwit or Abner?
Post game coments by Abner um oh is the game over who won reply by dimwhitt I don't know I fell asleep let's read Jordans post game report so for now just play dum ok dim.
I realize injuries are part of the game but the Jays have had more than their fair share and it makes you wonder if the conditioning program is flawed. With the amount of money invested in a player , does a team recommend/require a conditioning program for a player to follow in the off season and if not why not?
Thanks K
Jordan can't answer that question. And don't expect straight information from the same team that told you Ryan had a sore back.
Read the story posted to The Jays site where Arnsberg talked about Marcum's conditioning. It's plain that there is no program instituted by the Jays and you will realize that after you read the story.
"But our brain dead, numbskull team of Whitt and Abner left him out there to walk the first two of the 5th."
Do any of you guys actually Watch the games, or do you just sit there flapping your gums? Even my grandmother knew that after playing 24 innings in the previous 2 days, the bullpen was gassed. We needed to knock Mussina out early and get ourt starter to eat up innings. As it turned out, the bullpen didn't do much better, either.
Did you actually watch the game or do you just enjoy coming on here and flapping your yap?
If you did, you'd have noticed McGowan ran out of gas in the 4th inning, like everyone in the stadium knew.
Whether the bull pen was gased or not, it was certain McGowan was and to send him back out there in the 5th risked injury, and ultimately cost us the game. It was a stupid decision to put him back out there.
Of course we needed to get to Mussina early, but we didn't, and if you noticed our batters became a lot more impatient after the 5th than they were before.
Maybe they thought the decision to send McGowan back out was as stupdid as I did.
I read that article . I know they are athletes and will workout but it shocks me that they don't provide an individual program for each player.
I go to every game I can and watch ( or listen if I am not near a tv). Yankees did exactly what you said . They worked the pitch count and got to McGowan, then to our bullpen. Our AAA hitters were not as patient. You also have to factor in that Mussina is a seasoned pitcher and will get strike calls McGowan will not receive as a rookie. Stairs is very good at seeing pitches and rarely strikesout , this weekend he got called out several times.
Lastly this blog is here for people to exchange thoughts and ideas . Its like anything, if you don't use it, you will lose it. Thanks go to Jordan for giving it to us and to the bloggers who keep it alive . Now I need to go to work , have a great day all and take care
Yes, it shocked me as well. Athletes are athletes and have no understanding of kinesiology and what excercises properly prepare them for the season. I'm sure most of them have trainers-but do these trainers understand how to prepare a pitcher for 200 innings-unlikely.
In my view, it goes a long way to explain our injury situation and needs to change. It should be priority one.
There should be a conditioning staff of professionals with baseball backgrounds who meet with each player before they head off for the winter break and set the conditioning program. They should set excercise programs, diets, etc, and follow up with each player each month to monitor the progress, to ensure they all arrive in camp at the right weight and the right level of conditioning.
I'd even have a mid winter check in-maybe mid December, where all players report in for weight in and consultation. Hey, maybe combine this with a team Christmas party to make it a social event.
The point is, we need to change what we do, because what we're doing clearly isn't working.
Each player does consult with the strength and conditioning coach and medical staff to formulate a plan for the offseason. But unless the players are working out with the strength coach down in Florida, you can't expect the club to keep a close tab on every player in all their different locations around the U.S., in Canada and other countries.
Well, what we do know for sure is what ever is being done isn't working and needs to be fixed. How, I'm not exactly sure-but something is wrong.
If they do meet to formulate a plan then why did Arnsberg talk like Marcum was totally on his own. If Marcum did consult with this staff, then why didn't the staff suggest he be prepared as a starter not a reliever? Why no follow up?
It all sounds a little loosy goosie to me, with no set programs and no follow up.
I can't remember us having this rush of injuries when Jeff Krushell was the strength and conditioning coach. If Santos is the problem, let's treat him like we'll probably treat Mickey Brantley and replace him
The last time I checked you could get and respond to emails in most countries, so that isn't a valid excuse.
