With a weekend trip to Columbus on the horizon, the Revolution will have to simultaneously learn from Wednesday night's loss to Chivas USA and shift its focus to the next game. | RevsWrap >>
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – If there's a silver lining to be found in the Revolution's 4-0 loss to Chivas USA on Wednesday night, it's that the club was given absolutely no time to dwell on the defeat.
A little more than 12 hours after the players left Gillette Stadium following the final whistle, they were back in Foxborough for an 11 a.m. training session on Thursday morning as they prepare for a weekend meeting with the unbeaten Columbus Crew. The workout consisted simply of a light regeneration session for those players who played significant minutes against Chivas USA, but it was still a welcome method of focusing on the next game instead of the last.
"It's hard to forget about these games, but you've got to have a short memory – especially with ones like this," said Chris Tierney, who filled in as a defensive midfielder against Chivas USA. "It doesn't matter if we lose 2-0 or we lose 20-0 – if we put ourselves out there and have a little bit of pride, then you can look at yourself in the mirror at the end of the day and move on to the next one."
The next one will be in just two days, on Saturday, May 8, when the Revs will visit the Columbus Crew for a 7 p.m. kickoff on Fox Soccer Channel.
According to central defender Darrius Barnes, forgetting about the Chivas USA result will be vital considering the circumstances of this weekend's match. Attacking midfielder Marko Perovic – who has been the main thrust in the Revolution's attack in recent weeks – will be suspended following his ejection on Wednesday night. Not only that, but the Crew is one of only two remaining unbeaten teams in the league.
Add in the fact that Columbus didn't have a midweek game and will enter the weekend with full rest, and it becomes apparent that concentration and a maximum effort will be of paramount importance for the Revolution.
"We just have to throw [the Chivas USA game] to the back of our heads, throw it to the back burner and regroup," said Barnes. "This is going to be [our third game] in seven days, so that within itself is going to be a tough task.
"Columbus has a great team and we're playing at their place, so this is going to be another task that we're going to have to conquer and defeat," he continued. "Hopefully we can get this team together and get back on track somehow."
While the Revs won't have the services of Perovic, there is help on the way in the form of Kheli Dube and Joseph Niouky, who will both be eligible to return after serving one-game suspensions against Chivas USA. Both Dube and Niouky were ejected from the Revolution's 1-1 draw with FC Dallas last weekend.
Even with that pair returning, Barnes knows that it's going to take a gritty performance for the Revs to snap their four-game winless streak (0-3-1) and keep pace in the Eastern Conference.
"Columbus is going to be a test this weekend," he said. "We're going to be without Marko, but fortunately we get Kheli and Joseph back.
"[Still], we're going to have to dig deep, look into ourselves and pull out a great performance, because we can't go 2-5-1 to start the season," Barnes continued. "We're already 2-4-1 and that's not acceptable for this team."
Head coach Steve Nicol admitted that there weren't too many positives to take from the Chivas USA result, but he was satisfied with the character his team showed while playing the second half a man down.
A similar display of courage will be necessary if the Revolution hopes to grind out a result this weekend in Columbus.
"At least we take that out of the (Chivas USA) game: as much as everything was against us, we showed some spirit," Nicol said. "The guys were out there laying it on the line and giving everything they've got, and that's about all we could've asked for in the second half. That's why the second half was important that we showed some spirit, because when you have that, you have a chance. So, we'll dust ourselves down and get going for Saturday."

Study says ocean 'burp' helped end last ice age
28 May 2010 | 09:25:27 AM | Source: AFP
A giant "burp" of carbon dioxide stored under the ocean between South Africa and Antarctica may have helped end the last ice age more than 18,000 years ago, according to a new study.
The study, led by a scientist from Cambridge University, is "the first concrete evidence that carbon dioxide was more efficiently locked away in the deep ocean during the last ice age."
The team made its discovery by doing radiocarbon dating on shells under the Southern Ocean from tiny foraminifera creatures, says the study, which will be published in Friday's Science magazine.
Dr Luke Skinner's team measured carbon-14 levels in the shells and compared this with carbon levels in the atmosphere at the time to work out how long the CO2 had been locked in the ocean.
"Our results show that during the last ice age, around 20,000 years ago, carbon dioxide dissolved in the deep water circulating around Antarctica was locked away for much longer than today," Skinner said.
This could clarify "how ocean mixing processes lock up more carbon dioxide during glacial periods," he said.
According to the study, "pulses or 'burps' of C02 from the deep Southern Ocean helped trigger a global thaw every 100,000 years or so. The size of these pulses was roughly equivalent to the change in CO2 experienced since the start of the industrial revolution."
"If this theory is correct, we would expect to see large transfers of carbon from the ocean to the atmosphere at the end of each ice age."
Skinner said the findings will help understand the feasibility of proposals to tackle global warming by pumping carbon dioxide into the deep sea.
"Such carbon dioxide would eventually come back up to the surface, and the question of how long it would take would depend on the state of the ocean circulation, as illustrated by the last deglaciation," Skinner said.

The "Break-Up" Diet scores another one... Guess who?
It's Selma Blair!
By Debbie Emery - Radar Reporter
Actress Selma Blair may be the latest victim of the 'break-up diet' as she revealed the dramatic weight loss she has suffered since splitting with boyfriend and father of her child, Jason Bleick, earlier this year.
With a sunken chest, jutting ribs and a gaunt face, the Cruel Intentions star was a shadow of her former bubbly self, and RadarOnline.com has photos of her startlingly emaciated figure.
Blair, 40, and fashion designer Bleick, 42, broke up in September after reportedly "fighting non-stop" and have since strived hard to be amicable for the sake of their 16-month-old son, Arthur.
Being a working single mom is clearly taking its toll on the Anger Management actress who ran out of the house seemingly without a bra on under her wooly cardigan and in danger of a wardrobe malfunction as she pushed her adorable son along in a toy car.
Blair's skeletal size is reminiscent of how Demi Moore wasted away after she split from Ashton Kutcher in September 2011 following his cheating scandal with a younger woman.
Poor girl...

Boric acid is a dangerous poison. Poisoning from this chemical can be acute or chronic. Acute boric acid poisoning usually occurs when someone swallows powdered roach-killing products that contain the chemical.
Chronic poisoning occurs in those who are repeatedly exposed to boric acid. For example, in the past, boric acid was used to disinfect and treat wounds. Patients who received such treatment over and over again got sick, and some died.
This is for information only and not for use in the treatment or management of an actual poison exposure. If you have an exposure, you should call your local emergency number (such as 911) or a local poison control center at 1-800-222-1222.
Alternative Names
Borax poisoning
Poisonous Ingredient
Boric acid
Where Found
- Antiseptics and astringents
- Enamels and glazes
- Glass fiber manufacturing
- Medicated powders
- Skin lotions
- Some paints
- Some rodent and ant pesticides
- Photography chemicals
- Powders to kill roaches
- Some eye wash products
Note: This list may not be all inclusive.
The main symptoms of boric acid poisoning are blue-green vomit, diarrhea, and a bright red rash on the skin. Other symptoms may include:
Blisters Collapse Coma Convulsions Drowsiness
- Fever
- Lack of desire to do anything
- Low blood pressure
- Significantly
decreased urine output(or none)
- Sloughing of skin
Twitching of facial muscles, arms, hands, legs, and feet
Home Treatment
If the chemical is on the skin, remove by washing the area thoroughly.
If the chemical was swallowed, seek medical treatment immediately.
Before Calling Emergency
Determine the following information:
- The patient's age, weight, and condition
- The name of the product (ingredients and strengths if known)
- The time it was swallowed
- The amount swallowed
Poison Control, or a local emergency number
In the United States, call 1-800-222-1222 to speak with a local poison control center. This hotline number will let you talk to experts in poisoning. They will give you further instructions.
This is a free and confidential service. You should call if you have any questions about poisoning or poison prevention. It does NOT need to be an emergency. You can call for any reason, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Take the container with you to the hospital, if possible.
What to expect at the emergency room
The health care provider will measure and monitor the patient's vital signs, including temperature, pulse, breathing rate, and blood pressure. Treatment depends on the individual symptoms. The patient may receive:
- Camera down the throat to see burns in the esophagus and the stomach (endoscopy)
- Dialysis
- Fluids by mouth or IV
- Tube through the mouth into the stomach to wash out the stomach (
gastric lavage)
Note: Activated charcoal does not effectively treat (absorb) boric acid.
Expectations (prognosis)
The infant death rate from boric acid poisonings is high. However, boric acid poisoning is considerably rarer than in the past because the substance is no longer used as a disinfectant in nurseries. It is also no longer commonly used in medical preparations. Boric acid is an ingredient in some vaginal suppositories used for yeast infections, although this is NOT a standard treatment.

Sorry for the black dot, my cut hadn't healed enough yet and didn't want to show something that "gory" in pictures, haha. This is KBShimmer Proud Peacock. It's teal, blue, black, magenta, silver and holo glitters (along with holo bar glitter) in in teal jelly base. This is about 3-4 coats. I loved this manicure! Only thing is that, because of all the glitter, it is very top coat hungry.
I sort of hesitated on getting this polish because I don't tend to prefer bar glitter, but it worked well in this polish and the unity of colors made me get it :)
You can find KBShimmer at her website here and her Facebook page here.

Happy Friday the 13thPosted by Holy Cross Anglican School at 7:12 PM
Dear Friends,
Happy Friday the 13th! We're having a wonderful day here at Holy Cross Anglican School. The sun is shining after many days of rain, the sounds of learning are quietly (or not so quietly!) echoing around the school and construction has begun on our incredible state of the art composting toilet system. Thanks to a generous grant from the Episcopal Church Women, by September 2010 we will have two girls' bathrooms and two boys' bathrooms, 24 toilets, 10 urinals, 4 staff bathrooms and the 'greenest' sewer waste disposal system available!!!! I never thought I could get so excited about toilets but providing bathroom breaks for 500+ students and 29 staff with only 6 toilets and 3 urinals is more complicated than rocket science.
I know you each rejoice with us as the school blooms and grows. And I know most of you could recite the critical needs we have here at Holy Cross from memory….feeding program, land fill, school supplies, shoes, uniforms, first aid, electricity for the computer lab, water bills (most recent was for $850US), medical bills, eye glasses and the list goes on and on. And, most of you know I have a thousand and one ways to ask for your financial contributions. Now I have one thousand and TWO ways…my birthday, the BIG 60, will be on November 18th, 2009. (I can hear you gasping in shock since I don't look a day over 59 – smile.) Anyway, a few folks have asked what I want for my birthday. That's an easy question to answer!
If the Spirit should move you to make a donation to Holy Cross Anglican School in honor of my big event then God Bless You! Of course I want your birthday prayers too! As always, checks should be made payable to: Holy Cross Anglican School and sent to:
Holy Cross Anglican School
San Pedro Town
Ambergris Caye, Belize
Many thanks and blessings, Francis, The Birthday Girl!!
Please take a moment to read Volunteering in Belize part 2. a great blog done by one of our volunteers Julie.

DENVER—A judge has ruled that a man accused of killing and dismembering a 16-year-old girl in Denver is competent to stand trial.
The Denver Post reports ( http://bit.ly/Ul6fYC) District Judge Shelley Gilman made the decision Friday in the case of Edward Timothy Romero, who is charged in the October 2010 shooting death of Alicia Martinez.
Police say Martinez disappeared after attending a party at Romero's home. Her body was later found in the man's basement.
Gilman relied on an October examination that determined Romero has the capacity to understand court proceedings and participate in his own defense.
Romero has pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity.

About one in 25 U.S. teens has attempted suicide, according to a new national study, and one in eight has thought about it.
Researchers said those numbers are similar to the prevalence of lifetime suicidal thinking and attempts reported by adults - suggesting the teenage years are an especially vulnerable time.
"What adults say is, the highest risk time for first starting to think about suicide is in adolescence," said Matthew Nock, a psychologist who worked on the study at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
The results are based on in-person interviews of close to 6,500 teens in the U.S. and questionnaires filled out by their parents. Along with asking youth about their suicidal thinking, plans and attempts, interviewers also determined which teens fit the bill for a range of mental disorders.
Just over 12 percent of the youth had thought about suicide, and four percent each had made a suicide plan or attempted suicide.
Nock and his colleagues found that almost all teens who thought about or attempted suicide had a mental disorder, including depression, bipolar disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or problems with drug or alcohol abuse.
More than half of the youth were already in treatment when they reported suicidal behavior. Nock said that was both "encouraging" and "disturbing."
"We know that a lot of the kids who are at risk and thinking about suicide are getting (treatment)," he told Reuters Health. However, "We don't know how to stop them - we don't have any evidence-based treatments for suicidal behavior."
Who is at risk?
Amy Brausch, a psychologist who has studied adolescent self-harm and suicide at Western Kentucky University in Bowling Green, said the finding shouldn't be interpreted to mean mental health treatment doesn't work for teens.
"We don't know from this study if they even told their therapist they were having these thoughts, we don't know if it was a focus of the treatment," Brausch, who wasn't involved in the new research, told Reuters Health.
The findings were published this week in JAMA Psychiatry. But they still leave many questions unanswered.
Because most youth who think about suicide never go on to make an actual plan or attempt, doctors need to get better at figuring out which ones are most at risk of putting themselves in danger, according to Nock.
Once those youth are identified, researchers will also have to determine the best way to treat them, he said - since it's clear that a lot of current methods aren't preventing suicidal behavior.
According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, suicide is the third leading cause of death for people between age 10 and 24, killing about 4,600 young people annually.
Although girls are more likely to attempt suicide - a pattern confirmed by Nock's study - boys have higher rates of death by suicide because they typically choose more deadly methods, such as guns.
For parents, Brausch advised keeping open communication with their adolescent and not being afraid to ask about things like depression. They should also pay attention to changes in mood or behavior, she added.
Nock agreed. "For parents, if they suspect their child is thinking about suicide… or talking about death, I would have that child evaluated," he said.

My great great grandfather, Matthew Growden, married Christiana Pope, born Dyer, in Cornwall in the 1840s.
From various censuses it seems she had three children (at least) before she married him, and they were said to have been born in Tintagel - James Dyer, Thomas Pope and Philippa Pope.
So today I went to the Mormon family history centre and scrolled through microfilms of the Tintagel baptism register. But there was no sign of any of them.

With her dark black hair, tight muscular body and bevy of tattoos, it wouldn't be a stretch to expect to see Vancouver rocker Bif Naked in the ring. There is no doubt there are comparisons between life as a musician and life as a pro wrestler.
"I don't find the music industry to be cutthroat. Any industry that is the performing arts, because you are dealing with artists -- i.e. people who take themselves far too seriously -- there is going to be a lot of people who are trying to climb faster than you and will kick you off the ladder," Bif Naked told SLAM! Wrestling in a phone interview.
"You can't get upset by that and the things people say about you because you are doing a public job and they will critique you. I always say 'slow and steady wins the race.' The key to success in any industry you are in is perseverance. It can't be about money, and I think as long as you are able to carve out a living, stay healthy, take care of your parents if they get sick and feed your pets, everything else is just fun. People need to enjoy what they do, that is the key to success and happiness. Success is happiness not money."
Many wrestlers speak of the loneliness of the road and the thrill of performing. Naked is on tour right now supporting her new CD Superbeautifulmonster and her words will likely ring true with wrestlers.
"The side effect of my job that has come to light; I have a couple of stalkers who are messed in the head. Ultimately I have a really modified existence and it is really isolating. I don't date anymore, my last date was over a year ago, and the only time sometimes when I feel like somebody gets me is when I am playing because I am safe and can be myself when I am on stage and having a mutual exchange with my fans. They are there because they 'get it.' I feel like those are the only people in the world that understand me and that I understand them. I don't know what I would do if I couldn't play shows. Things go crazy and you are so busy but never alone or yourself. When it comes to the show I can relax, exhale and be myself and feel accepted and with my friends. That is the most important part of my life is playing shows."
Naked admits to dabbling in being a pro wrestling fan. Her cover of Twisted Sister's We're Not Gonna Take It was featured on the soundtrack for the wrestling movie Ready to Rumble.
"Dee Snider has a radio show in Hartford and I have been on his show before. I saw Twisted Sister perform when I was in grade 10 when they opened up for Iron Maiden at the Winnipeg Arena. I took my little sister, who was mortified and cried the whole time, and we were in the fourth row center. Dee Snider spit on me, because he was spitting on everyone. That was the best thing that ever happened in my life I was so excited he had spit on us it was like I had been baptized. When we started doing that cover, we went and shot the video with Sting and I got to be on his shoulders and do stunts with all the wrestlers, it was exciting. Then meeting Dee Snider I thought I was dying. I was like 'Well this has come full circle, I had better start making (funeral) arrangements.' It was surreal. I could die happy because situations like that are just so extraordinary and I feel so lucky and amazed that I get to sing certain songs or meeting people."
When she has time Bif will still tune in to wrestling.
"I keep watching it, but I don't watch TV. I met Trish Stratus a long time ago in Toronto when she was at the Musclemag international show. I am a big fan of Musclemag. I love her so much. She and Victoria are awesome. There is that one guy who was on from Iraq (Mohammad Hassan), who was hot. I speak Farci, so if I met him I could speak to him. I mostly speak Farci or Hindi. If I met him I could speak that and go 'Heeyy, how you doin?'"
Naked has had past TV experience on shows The L Word and Buffy The Vampire Slayer, so being on a wrestling show wouldn't be a stretch.
"I want to be on a wrestling show. I don't know that I want to wrestle although I do have martial arts experience. I just like big sweaty men. I've got to be honest -- I love them and I want to grapple with them, is that wrong? Especially when I ovulate, I really want to get in the ring when I ovulate and just wrestle with some sweaty men."
One can't help but ask then, when sweaty WCW stars on the shoot for the We're Not Going To Take It video surrounded her, did she ovulate?
"Video shoots are brutal. I was so freaked out and excited during the We're Not Going To Take It video and I wanted to do a good job in my stunts. Plus David Arquette and Scott Cahn were there and they are kind of hot in a way. I was really nervous so I wasn't actually ovulating."
Bif Naked will be at The Phoenix Nightclub in Toronto Nov 5. Keep an eye out for her on tour throughout the U.S. and Canada in the upcoming months.

According to Assemblyman Joseph Lentol, St. Nicks Alliance and other community groups, as well as the city, had the right of first refusal to purchase the 40-year-old center.
Although it is still unknown whether the building was offered to the city for the same price as it was sold to Brooklyn developer Harry Einhorn for $4.5 million, the St. Nicks Alliance says they offered to pay nearly $6 million for the property, but were turned down.
"We're all together in this fight with you," Lentol told a crowd of concerned seniors and parents last week.
After purchasing the property last December, Einhorn and his father offered to lease the the space to the Conselyea Street Block Association, the organization that operates the two centers, for $40,000 per month – an estimated rent increase of nearly $7,000 a month, 20 percent more than they currently pay to lease the property.
Lentol was joined Assemblywoman Maritza Davila and State Senator Marin Dilan to announce joint legislation called the Expedited Citizens Action Act, granting power to the city to take back the property through eminent domain in an expedited process, an idea brought forth by community activist Jan Peterson and others at a rally to save the senior center in December 2013.
"We're putting in a bill to allow the city to take by eminent domain a piece of property that is public property and has been for 40 years," Lentol said. "(The city) can take action with us to make sure that it stays that way, by condemning the property if we don't prevail in the lawsuit, taking it by eminent domain and selling it back to us."
He added that while they are also prepared to take the new landlord to court, they continue to look for a compromise towards keeping the senior center and daycare.
"This is probably a weapon of last resort," Lentol said. "We would hope that negotiations with the owner would prevail and that he should do the right thing to allow us to continue to use this space as community space. If not, we have another weapon."'
Dilan said he plans to do everything in his power to make sure the bill passes swiftly. While the Conselyea Street Block Association has attempted to work out a peaceful resolution with the new landlords, "if greed prevails, eminent domain will be applied," said Dilan.
Councilman Antonio Reynoso called on Mayor Bill de Blasio to join their fight in saving the senior center and daycare.
"He has fought actively to keep open Long Island College Hospital, out there getting arrested because he thinks it's that important, " he said. " I want him to come here and get arrested with me if need be."

Yeah, our track in MA sucked totally. It happens sometimes. That's why you really can't compare things from track to track. Soleil's pulled anywhere from about 600 to 2000 on wheels, about 400-3,000 on rails. Even day to day things vary. I've never pulled in heavy rain. I don't think I could persuade Soleil to do it. At least you got a qualifying leg. Does Starbuck pull in your class? He's an excellent dog.
Hopefully Sunday will be nicer. The carpet will probably still be soaked. We wrecked our club's carpet in MA, which was expensive.

OAKLAND — The California Highway Patrol is willing to help police some of Oakland's most dangerous streets for another three months, but this time it wants to be paid for its services, city officials said Tuesday.
The CHP's initial 90-day agreement to help Oakland's undermanned police force expires at the end of this week. City officials had hoped that the CHP would continue providing officers free of charge, but those hopes were dashed last week when the City Council agreed to pay for similar help from the Alameda County Sheriff's Office.
"They do want to be paid because the (the sheriff's office) is going to be paid," OPD spokeswoman Johnna Watson said.
CHP officials could not be reached for comment late Tuesday.
Mayor Jean Quan said she was hopeful that state grants could be used to help cover some of the patrol costs going forward and that she would soon meet with the CHP about preserving the Oakland patrols.
"This assistance came in a time of need, and this need still exits," she said in a prepared statement.
Highway patrolmen began policing high-crime sections of Oakland in early November after city officials and a prominent minister asked Gov. Jerry Brown for help to combat the city's surging crime rate.
Watson refused to say how many CHP officers were augmenting Oakland's police force. When the assistance was announced, CHP said it would provide between eight and 20 officers.
While violent crime surged 23 percent last year, Oakland's police department shrank to just 613 officers — the lowest staffing level in over a decade. The department's first academy class in several years is scheduled to complete its field training this summer.
To further help the short-handed department, the City Council last week agreed to pay the sheriff's office up to $265,000 for 11 deputies to work in Oakland two days a week. The contract lasts for 90 days. Alameda County Sheriff Gregory Ahern said recently that he was required by law to charge Oakland for the help.
City officials did not say how much they would have to pay to keep the CHP in town, although it's expected the amount would be similar to that paid to the sheriff's office.
Oakland has little choice but to pay for the help, if that's the only way it can get it, Councilman Larry Reid said. "Gov. Brown said we were on our own, so, we're on our own."

Blue Jays option Delabar as Kawasaki recalled
NEW YORK -- The Blue Jays caught a lot of people off-guard on Tuesday afternoon by making a surprise decision to option right-hander Steve Delabar to Triple-A Buffalo.
When reports surfaced Monday night that infielder Munenori Kawasaki was on the verge of a promotion, most of the speculation centered around either left-hander Brett Cecil or designated hitter Adam Lind being placed on the disabled list.View Full Game Coverage
NEW YORK -- The Blue Jays caught a lot of people off-guard on Tuesday afternoon by making a surprise decision to option right-hander Steve Delabar to Triple-A Buffalo.
When reports surfaced Monday night that infielder Munenori Kawasaki was on the verge of a promotion, most of the speculation centered around either left-hander Brett Cecil or designated hitter Adam Lind being placed on the disabled list.View Full Game Coverage
Instead of going in that direction, when the official roster move was announced prior to the series opener in New York, it was Delabar who became the odd-man out. The move was made in part to avoid losing Lind or Cecil for the next two weeks.
"We're trying to avoid placing anybody on the DL," Blue Jays general manager Alex Anthopoulos said. "We think Adam is days away, he's really day to day at this point. The fact that we had the off-day, our bullpen is fresh and we needed to make a move.
"It's just a combination of things. We needed to clear up a spot to get an infielder up here, and out of the relievers that were there, Chad [Jenkins] provided us a little more length right now, and we can get Steve the work as well. That was the move for us, unless we were going to go the DL route."
Delabar was borderline dominant for the Blue Jays last season, and as a result, he earned a spot on the American League All-Star team for the first time in his career. He was one of Toronto's lone bright spots in an otherwise-disappointing 2013 campaign.
This season, though, hasn't gone as smoothly. Delabar found himself slowly sliding down the Blue Jays' depth chart as he battled a slight drop in velocity and a lack of command. Overall, he posted a 4.68 ERA with 16 walks in 25 innings and began to lose his innings to fellow right-handers Jenkins and Dustin McGowan.
Despite the struggles, there was a line of thinking that the Blue Jays would remain patient with their hard-throwing reliever. He appeared to turn a corner during his past two outings, as he tossed a pair of scoreless innings vs. the Twins and Orioles. The movement on his splitter was back during Thursday's appearance in Baltimore, but in the end, it wasn't enough to save his job.
"We don't want to go with eight guys in the 'pen," Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said. "With Lindy banged up, we need another player. And Delabar's got options, and he needs to go down and iron it out a little bit.
"Some steady work, I think, will do wonders for him. I thought he looked much better the other night in Baltimore, but he's been battling it. The only way he's going to get that is to go down and do it. So it kind of all came together at the right time."
Delabar will now report to Buffalo for what he can only hope is a relatively short stint. Once there, he'll continue working on some mechanical adjustments that he began to make several weeks ago.
The 30-year-old noticed he had a tendency to drift toward third base during the leg kick of his windup. Delabar would attempt to compensate for being slightly off-line, but it led to a lot of control issues. This season, he is walking 5.8 batters per nine innings, compared to a 4.4 mark last season.
Delabar was encouraged by his past two outings and felt like he was heading in the right direction. If he was surprised by the move, he did a pretty good job of hiding it Tuesday afternoon.
"I'm the guy who has options," Delabar said. "We had to make a roster move, and I'm just the guy. They want me to go down, continue to work on some stuff, get back on track to where I was, and just be back whenever they need me.
"I know what I'm capable of doing and how I can help this team. So I know that I will be back, and I'll be here to help."
Kawasaki will give the Blue Jays some additional infield depth while Lind remains out after he fouled a ball off his right foot during the sixth inning of Saturday's game in Baltimore. Kawasaki got the start at second base on Tuesday night.
The 33-year-old Kawasaki played in 44 games for Buffalo and is batting .276 with 11 doubles and nine RBIs. Last season, the veteran played in 96 games for Toronto and batted .229 with 27 runs scored.
Toronto remains optimistic that Cecil will be available to pitch out of the bullpen Wednesday night.

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
London's iconic St. James Church joined the growing trend of utilizing the Christmas season to criticize or outright slander Israel.
In the days leading up to the Christian world's biggest holiday, St. James erected a massive replica of the portion of Israel's security wall that divides Bethlehem from Jerusalem. Under the banner "Bethlehem Unwrapped," the wall served as the backdrop for a festive Christmas gathering that put Israel directly in the crosshairs.
Visitors were invited to write messages of solidarity with the Palestinians or condemnations of Israeli security measures on the replica wall, Palestinian children's art highlighting their victimhood was on display, and a popular Palestinian singer performed.
As usual, the security wall and the current situation in the land were grossly misrepresented.
Similar to other events of its kind, "Bethlehem Unwrapped" presented Israel's security wall as an arbitrary act of cruelty. There was seemingly no mention of the fact that the wall wasn't there 10 years ago, or that Israel only reluctantly decided to build the barrier following a major escalation in Palestinian terrorism. At one point in the mid–2000s, Jerusalem was being attacked by gunfire and suicide bombers on an almost daily basis, many of those attacks originating in Bethlehem or areas beyond in Judea.
Most Jerusalemites don't like the wall, either, but very few would trade it for a return to nearly unchecked terrorism that until recently plagued our city (Israel previously tried to stem the attacks with anti-terror military operations, but was similarly condemned for that).
A good read regarding the topic, and St. James' deplorable foray into this political issue was penned by Jewish terror victim Kay Wilson, whose Christian friend Kristine Luken was murdered when the two women were attacked by knife-wielding Palestinians south of Jerusalem in 2010.

High School Senior Punished By Mommy After Tebowing at Graduation
When 17-year-old Chuck Shriner crossed the stage to pick up his high school diploma on Saturday, he took a knee and Tebow-ed the principal. The stunt got him a lot of laughs and applause from the parents and students in attendance, but it also got him a day of janitorial duty — and he left without his diploma.
Tebowing, for those of you new to our planet, is the action of publicly dropping to one knee in prayer, popularized by religiously-devout New York Jets quarterback Tim Tebow during his college days at the University of Florida. It's turned into a full-on meme in the past year or so, with people Tebowing just about everywhere you can imagine.
So when Shriner's buddies dared him to do it during his graduation ceremony, he was quick to agree, saying "I just thought it was fun. I was just doing it to make graduation memorable."
It definitely did that. Despite the warm reception the stunt got from people in the high school gym that day, Shriner's apparently humorless principal denied him his diploma, and he got stuck cleaning the gym on Monday.
"They said what I did would give underclassmen inspiration to do something else, that it might lead to something else," Shriner said. "So they were trying to set an example."
The worst part? The day of custodial duty was all his mom's idea. Shriner's mother is a math teacher at the school, and she's the one who masterminded his punishment. She also took possession of his diploma.

Creating a beautiful lawn involves more than just throwing down some grass and adding a few decorative garden items. Before you begin adding garden decor to your yard, it's a good idea to have a plan prepared. First, jot down the overall dimensions of your yard, taking into account sunny/shady areas, water drainage, seasonality (of both plants and garden decor) and the type of look that you want to achieve. You should also consider the following criteria in deciding what type of decorative garden items to add to your landscape.
Sunny or Shady?
How much sun/shade does your yard receive? In determining where to add your plants and what types of plants to add, it's always a good idea to know how much sun/shade your plants require. Once you've learned this, you can choose the best place to plant your garden. It's also advantageous to use plants and flowers that are indigenous to your location.
Group Accordingly
How much water does your plants/garden require and how is the drainage situation? Since some plants require an abundance of water and others are to be watered sparingly, it's a good idea to group the garden plants based on their water intake as well as how much drainage is available.
Your Color Palette
What colors do you want in your landscape? Grouping plants with a similar color palette will give your landscape design a more cohesive and professional look. For example, you can choose plants, flowering bushes, and even trees based on what color they will produce. Of course, if you're going for a country-themed garden, then as far as color is concerned, anything goes.
To Sod or to Seed…That is the Question
There are a couple of key differences between laying sod and seeding your yard. Seeding is less expensive and will have a stronger root system, yet if you choose to lay sod, you will obviously see the results sooner and your grass will be relatively weed-free in the beginning. If you choose to seed your yard, be sure there is moist soil up to 4-6 inches deep. After seeding, water only as needed – stop watering when puddles begin to appear. It will take approximately 6-12 weeks for the seeds to become established.
If you're going to sod, make sure the dirt is prepared – wet the area and once it begins to dry, rototill the area so the dirt is loose. After you cut and lay the sod, it's a good idea to keep the sod moist for a couple of weeks. Once your grass is ready for mowing, you can either mow vertically, which will make your yard look longer, or horizontally to make your yard appear wider.
The Finishing Touches
Once you have your garden planted, it's time to start adding some decorative garden items to complete your landscape design.
Lawn Edging & Flower Bed Borders
To keep your landscaping looking nice and uninformed, you're going to want to install some lawn edging to section off your areas. Lawn edging and flower bed borders come in a variety of styles and colors and can be used in many places in your landscape.
If you want to add an edge around your lawn to keep your grass separate from your garden area, check out the Curv-Rite Lawn Edging Kit, which is a green aluminum edging that can curve to any shape you need. This lawn edging kit blends in nicely with your lawn and can be cut to any size.
For low-profile lawn edging, choose our flexible Easy Flex No Dig Edging that requires no digging and just snaps together in 4-ft sections. This lawn edging is also sturdy enough to be used as an edge restraint for brick patio pavers.
Decorative Garden Borders
If you want to add a decorative border around trees or your garden or if you want to create a beautiful flower bed in the middle of your landscape, check out the Bedrock Garden Border or the Scalloped Garden Border Edging, both have a snap-together installation and can be set up in almost any configuration.
For more of a country-cottage looking garden, add some lattice and slat designed garden fencing to your landscape. Resin Decorative Garden Fences look like painted wood fencing, but will last year after year without painting or sanding.
Decorative garden borders are available in a variety of styles so choose whichever style will work with your landscape design.
Garden Pathways
Once your garden has been planted, you're going to need to add a pathway. The most time-consuming and important part of adding a pathway through your garden is sketching it out before you purchase the materials. Once you've determined where you want the pathway to go and how much land you will want to cover, the next step is to figure out what type of materials you will want to use.
Deciding which type of walkway you will want to create depends on what type of atmosphere you are trying to establish in your garden. If you like the Zen look, then adding a Wooden Walkway that will blend seamlessly into your yard is the way to go.
A quick and easy way to light your garden pathway is by installing solar pathway lights. Solar pathway lights come in several unique styles, colors, and shapes. For more information on how to select the right solar pathway light for you, check out our article on How to Choose Solar Lights.
Outdoor Fountains & Ponds
Add some tranquility to your garden by adding an outdoor fountain or a pond to your landscape. Before deciding on what type of garden fountain or pond you are going to purchase, you should make sure you have sketched out where the fountain and/or the pond is going to go. The garden fountain or pond should be the focal point of the landscape. Garden fountains come in a variety of styles and shapes so determining what type is best for your garden is really just a matter of preference. When adding a pond to your garden, make sure you add a 1-2 ft walking border so you can access the pond for feeding your fish or keeping it clean.

With most of the Midwest's corn acres planted, growers now grapple with decisions about weed control. The correct timing of herbicides applied after the crop emerges will help maintain top yields, especially with heavy weed growth expected from the wet and warm spring weather.
A general recommendation from weed scientists is to apply postemerge herbicides on corn before weeds are 2 in. tall, says Aaron Hager, University of Illinois Extension weed specialist. This timing will kill weeds early before crop yield loss results from weed interference.
Most postemerge herbicides may be applied at various crop growth stages. Product labels detail the maximum growth stage for application of the herbicide, after which an application is detrimental, Hager says. Plus, a few products state a minimum growth stage, before which the product should not be applied.
"Application restrictions exist for several reasons, but of particular importance is the increased likelihood of crop injury if applications are made outside a specified growth stage or range," he adds.
Most labels use corn plant height to determine growth. Hager says this height is generally determined by measuring from the soil to the arch of the uppermost leaf that is at least 50% emerged from the whorl. He recommends measuring several plants in the field and averaging the numbers.
Some agronomists say leaf number is a more accurate measure of corn development. Leaf counting should start with the short first leaf and end with the leaf that is 50% emerged from the whorl. Counting leaf collars is another method, which starts with the first short leaf and includes only leaves with a visible collar.

How I to make to customizing the archives default of mcs_settings when the users to effect login appears mcs_settings for the first time customized?
I beleve if you copy ~/.config/xfce4/* to /etc/xdg/xfce4/* all users will have those setting. But I could be wrong :twisted:

In way that when no to exist to the folder. ~/config. The XFCE creates the folder with the Backugrounp customizade natureza.jpg in the place of xfce-smoke.png? :oops:

Americans are increasingly saying "I do" to living together before marriage, according to a new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In fact, cohabitation is now more common among younger women than living with a spouse or living alone.
The report, released Thursday, is based on data from the CDC's National Survey of Family Growth. More than 12,000 women between the ages of 15 and 44 took part in the survey between 2006 and 2010. (So did more than 10,000 men, but the new study focuses on the women.)
Among the women, 48% told interviewers that they were living with their significant other but were not married to them. In 1995, only 35% of women were cohabiting with their partners, according to a previous edition of the survey.
On the flip side, fewer couples are now waiting until they're married to move in together. Only 23% of the women who answered the survey between 2006 and 2010 said they got married first, down from 39% in 1995. (The proportion of women who were not living with a boyfriend or husband has held steady in the 27%-to-29% range during this time.)
