Bleeding edge dating guide on how to avoid dating the kooks who seem to always pop up when looking for Mr. or Ms. Right.
spotting the kooks
The idea is the front and back cover are different perspectives fo the same scene. If the choice is a man or woman for the front cover then it should be a man on the front cover.
Front cover is a man and a woman meeting at a coffee shop, standing at the hostess station, shaking hands. We see the front of the guy and and side of the girl. Both are good looking. Very slightly noticable, something you would almost miss on first glance, is a little devil tail peeping out from her skirt. And little horns almost hidden by her headband.
The reverse on the back cover same scene, except we see the guy is holding an ax behind his back! Back cover needs room for the ISBN bar code box on the bottom, and room for description and endorsements.
Size is 8.5 h x 5.5 w
Read the introduction to get a sense of the style:
Youshould know right up front that I'm a reformed brazen hussy. It's part of whatmakes me eminently qualified to write this book! For years I sought theemotional roller coaster ride of misbegotten love affairs, jumping from boy toman to man to boy. Yeah. I got around. It's okay. I own that.
Boycould I pick 'em. (Not.) I was the girl who believed everything guys told me toget me into bed; I fell for it everysingle time. Like most children of divorce, I had a picker that was off.Big time. I desperately wanted to trust the men I fell in love with, but I washopelessly ignorant of their lying, thieving, cheating ways.
I dated some real winners, men who were not whatthey seemed, men who were broken, men who were full of themselves, men whoprobably didn't like me much but still tried to bag me. The pinnacle of loserswas the guy who told me he was the VP of a plastics company and turned out tobe a drug dealer who, when I moved out, threatened to have me kidnapped, raped,and shipped to Africa to be sold into white slavery. I told you I could pick'em.
Every relationship was fated to fail because mypriorities were way out of whack. That is, until I finally wised up and gotserious about finding a good match.
Tiredof dating losers, I decided to go for broke and went on one hundred dates inthirty days, which basically meant I scheduled a date for breakfast, lunch, anddinner every day for an entire month. Despite the fact that I hated dating, Idove in with gusto. Working my dates like an assembly line, I got clear aboutmy expectations. I had no choice; with so many dates, I didn't have time tomess around. And I didn't have time to fall in love blindly - be swept off myfeet - or ignore warning signals that had previously slipped right past me.
Afterone hundreds dates I developed the ultimate picker. I could spot a catch frommiles away. Better yet, I could spot the losers, jerks, and freaks I "lovingly"referred to as "kooks." Later, I parlayed my experiences as a second wife into apassion for asset protection and became a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst.And after working with scores of couples in the throes of divorce, I honed mykook detector into the fine instrument it is today.
And myco-author, AJ? Well, she earned her kook-dar the hard way, too. Spookystrangers feigning laryngitis to get a date with her, hundreds of pervertsresponding to a very classy personal ad, schemers, scammers, and double-dippers– she's seen them all, or bumped up against them. That was all before she metMrs. Right, slipped on a diamond, and lived happily ever after inillegally-wedded bliss. But her picker is still in tip-top shape, so much sothat her buddies regularly put their intendeds through the "AJ Test" beforethey get serious.
Whatif AJ and I you could spot the real losers before you open your life to them?What if you could see the truth about your guy or gal before the damage wasdone? What if you could spot the kooks before they tattoo your heart?
You can spot the kooks. You just need toknow how.
Peopleoften ignore the whispers of doubt and explain away the warning signals all forthe sake of new love. The last thing you want to believe about your lover,partner, or spouse, is that he or she is not your perfect match. Consideringthe notion that your sweetheart is not what he or she seems, may never change,can't love your the way you really want to be loved, or, worse, is a danger toyour personal safety and financial well being, can be downright impossible.
Thatis, unless you know the signs.
Webegan this project by sharing our dating disasters, polled our friends, andthen came up with a list of kooks we've known and loved. This book is our giftto all of the single (and attached) straight and gay men and women out thereslogging through the dating world. It's a guide to spotting the most common"worst date" and "worst mate" personalities, the guys and gals who aren't worthyour time and certainly aren't worthy of your love. In this book, you'll learnthe style, motives, and strategies employed by nineteen of the worst offenders,from the benign Baby to the dangerous Control Freak.
However,this book does not include shopaholics, alcoholics, overeaters, anorexics, drugaddicts, and the like because these are people with diseases of the mind, bodyand soul. These people are not kooks. Don't kooks have psychological problemsjust like drug addicts and people with eating disorders? Yes. Kooks often havecomplicated psychological problems that influence their kooky behavior. (Don'twe all?) But if your guy or gal has a bona fide, diagnosed addiction ordisorder, I would not characterize him or her as a "kook." The American Heritage Dictionary defines a kook as, "A personregarded as strange, eccentric, or crazy." But the word is slang, and in thisbook it is used to describe anyone who isn't worth wasting precious Saturdaynights on.
We'll also clue you in on what you can do toprotect yourself if you're just not sure that your dreamboat is really a kook,and you want to maintain the relationship. And if you're looking for new placesto search for your one true love, flip to the Venue Menu at the back of thebook for our take on the best ways to meet single guys and gals.
Kissing frogs is a waste of time. You need to cutstraight to the chase and get on with your happily ever after. Happy pickin'!
Beforeyou dive in, a quick note about how we approached this book:
AJ andI understand that writing from two points of view can be confusing, so we'vewritten this entire book from a single point of view, but that point of view iscollective. We've incorporated all of our shared experiences into one voice andone narrator, thereby making it easier for you, the reader, to read. Inaddition, we think part of what makes this book so strong is that it relatesrelationship mistakes and mishaps, crimes and misdemeanors that we've both made(and probably you, too). So when you read us saying, "I did this or I didthat," the fact is it probably applies to both of us, which is why it doesn'tmatter which one of us is speaking, or writing, at that moment. We hope thesingular point of view doesn't case confusion. We think it avoids it.
How to Avoid the Kooks
An ounce of kook prevention is worth apound of therapy. Spotting kooks before they worm their way into your heart canbe the difference between, "Oh well," and, "Why me?" The best protection fromthe kooks of the world is to make yourself undesirable to the undesirables.Here's how:
Be Authentic
The dating world is full of shape shifters andchameleons, people who change who they are to seem more appealing to the objectof their affection. From their appearance to their interests to their politicalleanings, people alter aspects of themselves in the hopes of getting a phonenumber, a date, or a marriage proposal.
First of all, it's lying. We all do a little bit ofit when we're trying to partner up. No woman really wants to wear four-inch heels all day every day or watch footballfor ten hours straight. No man leaps at the chance to watch his woman try onnineteen different dresses.
But the dishonesty I'm referring to goes deeperthan that; it's about changing something fundamental about you in an attempt toattract and please a potential mate. You are who you are. Don't tone yourselfdown or make something up for anyone. When you stand in your truth, you aremore apt to notice when someone is trying to feed you a line or steer you offcourse. When you are rooted in your own authenticity, kooks are less likely tocome knockin'.
Cultivate Confidence
Kooks prey on the timid. They're not interested insomeone who exudes self-confidence. A person who appears weak and insecure ismore likely to let a kook in and then get away with just about anything. AndI'm not talking about on-the-job confidence, the kind that got you thatpromotion and a company car. I'm talking about relationship confidence. Eventhe highest rollers can have pea-sized self-worth when it comes to affairs ofthe heart.
Cultivate confidence and the kooks will thinktwice about approaching you. How do you do that? It's easier than you think.Pretend to take yourself off the market and fill your time with creative,adventurous, and charitable endeavors. Focus on making yourself happy ratherthan waiting for some nameless stranger (i.e. kook) to sort it all out for you.Expand your horizons, take chances, and learn something new. Help others, digup childhood dreams, and take a giant bite out of life. Of course, you wouldlike to meet the love of your life, so you're not totally off the market. But you're more likely to meet your dreamguy or gal when you're focused on living life to the fullest. And you're LESSlikely to run into kooks in the process.
Stay In the Moment
When you're dating someone, you're more likely tospot the kook if you stay completely present. Most of us (myself included)think WAY too much about the future when we're getting to know someone. It'sunderstandable; you're sizing up the match, thinking long-term, wondering ifthis new dreamboat is a total waste of your time.
One of the problems with this futurethinking is that it's not based in reality. The last thing you want to do ishitch up with someone's potential rather than the real person. Another downsideis that the dreaming and planning distracts you from sizing up your sweetie asis. What if you miss a big red flag because you're busy reading baby name booksor picking out rings? What if you're so focused on the future you can't spotthe kook sitting right next to you, holding your hand?
This book will teach you how to spotsome of the most common kooks around, but until you get right with yourself,you're always going to be susceptible to them. When you are genuine, confident,and rooted in the present moment, the kooks won't stand a chance.

Nerf N-Strike Elite Firestrike : Feb 2013
Nerf N-Strike Elite Strongarm : Feb 2013
Nerf N-Strike Elite Stryfe: Mid 2013
Nerf N-Strike Elite Rough Cut 2x4: May 2013
Nerf Vortex Diatron : Mid 2013
One thing I am wondering about is when they get released elsewhere like the US and the UK.. particularly that amazon UK have pretty much all of them on preorder and give a rough guide that stock should arrive around late December (if I understand it correctly....)ReplyDelete
Rough Cut on my birthday? SWEET!ReplyDelete
Strange that they're holding up the release of the stryfe and diatron till half way through next year when they're obviously about to become available in other markets. That's around about a 7 or 8 month wait for us :(ReplyDelete
In the United States, the Stryfe has been seeing an early release. I picked one up today in Minnesota. http://www.reddit.com/r/Nerf/comments/13sacs/stryfe_sighted_in_burnsville_mn_toys_r_us/ReplyDelete
I feel sorry for the sucker that bought the strongarm on ebay a few months ago. Who would pay a thousand dollars to get a nerf blaster a few months earlier?ReplyDelete
Cool, but is this is Australian exclusive release or a world wide release.ReplyDelete
N-Strike Elite Diatron? I though it was Vortex..
LOL. Spelling mistake.
With so much intel coming in that day and trying to stay on top of my day job and.. oh enough with the excuses, oops:P I fixed it:DDelete
I'm always assuming our late release is so they can sell out of the inventory they already have here.
$25 for the Swarmfire at K-Mart now.
Well for all of us Stateside, Hasbro support is mum on release information. So who knows when we are getting these. According to the lady I chatted with none of the Elite blaster I mentioned (Strongarm, Stryfe, Roughtcut) are on her list of products, and no advance info would be released.
Kinda stupid if you ask me, we know, for fact, the Stryfe is on shelves here stateside and yet it's not listed... I smell bullshit.
LOL, there are Stryfes at my local Walmart already.ReplyDelete
I saw a firestrike and a strongarm at Big W.ReplyDelete

ROCKFORD — Chefs Tino Salazar and Giacomo Parisi don't feel restricted cooking healthier dishes at Franchesco's Ristorante, 7128 Spring Creek Road.
They say it's a matter of customer service and respecting that people increasingly want to know more about where their food comes from and what ingredients are used.
It also means simple adjustments, like swapping butter for olive oil and pasta for roasted vegetables.
Those healthier menu items were born from a partnership with FitMe Wellness, a locally run health club that opened two years ago at 2595 N. Mulford Road. Four FitMe items are listed on an insert inside the regular dinner menu alongside their calorie, fat, sodium, carbohydrate and protein content.
The main entrees range in price from $21 to $31 and from 203 to 571 calories. Customers can order sides like roasted carrots and sweet potatoes or steamed broccoli/asparagus, but those are not factored into the nutrition listing.
FitMe owner Greg Georgis thinks it's a misconception that people want large portions of unhealthy foods.
"If you give people an opportunity to eat great food that is healthy, they'll take it," Georgis said.
FitMe and Octane Interlounge partnered earlier this year on healthier menu items that have been well received by diners. Franchesco's FitMe menu went live about three months ago, and owner Benny Salamone said the responses are positive so far.
"We always have the perception that we're Italian and very caloric and more comfort food," Salamone said. "But we were able to come up with ideas to create things that are very healthy, lower in calories and just overall appealing to people who are watching what they're eating."
Georgis is also working with Zak Rotello at The Olympic Tavern, 2327 N. Main St., on a handful of healthier menu items. Rotello is re-launching the restaurant's menu this week.
Some of Olympic's menu items — spaghetti squash and salmon, for example — are already low in fat and high in protein and fiber. Rotello said the menu is shrinking from 120 items to 65 and several dishes made vegetarian with a lower in price, though patrons will have the option to add protein for an extra charge.
"People are just more interested in what they eat and drink," Rotello said. "We're seeing that with craft beer ... In general, people's eating habits are getting a little lighter. Instead of having leftovers for three days, they want a really good dining experience that doesn't break the bank."
When customers order from the FitMe menu, they're supposed to receive a free pass to the health club. Georgis said wellness and preventative health care are key to reducing costs for individuals and the country as a whole as part of the Affordable Care Act.
"We want people to have good health," Georgis said. "Move more, eat better. People get that. We're not telling people to start running marathons or become vegan. Incremental changes are there. You can still go to a great restaurant and say 'my health is important.'
"We're trying to make it easier for our members and our community to realize that."
Georgis is working on more partnerships with local restaurants. The Complete Health Improvement Program, which promotes a heart-healthy lifestyle and eating, launched heart-healthy menu items about a decade ago and still has space on menus at local restaurants like Lino's and Mary's Market.
Beefaroo partnered with Peak Sports Club earlier this year to add healthier choices to its menu. The B-fit menu features 14 items that are about 400 calories or less.

To read "Identification," the first part of this series, click here.
To read "Development," the second part of this series, click here.
In the first two parts of this series, I covered two of the four principles behind the Cal South Pro+ program: Identification and Development. This week's column will tackle the third principle: Inclusion.
So what do we mean by "inclusion?" Within Pro+, inclusion means a breaking down of the barriers which, in the past, have prevented players from attending the Olympic Development Program (ODP). In a broader sense, it means "to identify, assist and provide elite soccer opportunities to as many of the best players in Southern California as possible."
Let's face it, chiefly due to the great work of our affiliate member clubs and their coaches, the Cal South ODP program has achieved great success in helping players move on to the next higher level, whether it is playing college ball, pro ball or making a national team.
However, because of the financial costs which previously had been a part of ODP, I personally feel that we have missed identifying a lot of talented players who simply couldn't afford to attend regional and national ODP events. To address this, Cal South President Johnnie Garza and our Board of Directors supported the new Pro+ vision that players should not have to pay more just because they might be considered "elite." The decision was made to offer the Pro+
program, which includes ODP, at as minimal a cost as possible.
To achieve this goal, it meant putting a new cost structure into place. The specifics are:
• When a player is invited to a Pro+ pool, they pay a $100 Administration fee.
• When a player in a Pro+ pool is selected to the 5-day Pro+ summer ID camp, attendance is FREE.
• When players are selected to represent Cal South at international, regional or national ODP events, the only cost for those players will be their meals. Cal South Pro+ will cover travel, housing and all other expenses.
Compare that to the cost from just two years ago, when players paid about $1,000-1,200 to go through the whole ODP program. Now, with the new structure, the maximum a player would pay is between $200-300. This alone will definitely lead to the inclusion of many more players than in the past, including those that could not financially afford to attend the program, even with scholarship money provided to them.
Cal South recently signed a new five-year extension on our agreement with Nike Soccer, who have been incredible in showing their support of Cal South Pro+. Nike will continue to provide and fulfill all the training and uniform needs of our Pro+ players. Quite simply, their backing of elite player identification and development in Cal South is amazing. When they say "JUST DO IT," they mean it. In our efforts to discover the next Landon Donovan or Alex Morgan, Nike has
proven they are committed to support us in any way they can.
We plan to expand, identify and include youth players in our adult leagues, and we continue looking at high school and inner city programs for the most talented players we can find. Our goal is to include as many of the best players possible in Pro+. It not important where a player plays; it is more important to identify them and include them in Pro+. Once there, we can continue to help them develop fully and reach their full potential. To reach this potential, we rely on the
guidance and advice of national staff coaches, pro players, college coaches and sport science specialists.
There are other programs in Southern California attempting to do a similar thing as Cal South Pro+. The big difference maker in our case is the word "inclusion." In 2011, Cal South scouted over 1,000 games throughout the year. In doing so, were able to include over 2,500 players in our Pro+ program through pool training, weekend training camps, residential academies, and even our morning summer camps. At each level of training, we are always looking to include the
It's important to realize that players are not scouted on where or for whom they play. We scout players at every level in Cal South. Talented players can potentially be found on any type of team, regardless of its success. For Pro+, teams and game results have no significance in player identification. We are scouting the individual players, whose identification and inclusion in Pro+ rests squarely on their abilities on the field.
Finally, communication plays a major part in the success of the "inclusion" principle of Cal South Pro+. Communication with everyone involved with the players, including parents, club coaches and club DOCs, is critical in getting our message to those it benefits most. One thing we ask all coaches is to check out our website (www.calsouth.com) for the latest developments and events in Pro+, and also to check their emails to help players take full advantage of what can
be a crucial step in their individual development.

Spanish GP 2008
Sunday Team Quotes
Kimi Raikkonen (1st): "It would be hard to do better than this! Yesterday pole, today the win, rounded off with a second place for Felipe. We are leading both championships which I'm happy about. The whole weekend went well and we managed to get the result we came here for. It was not an easy win, but what matters is the ten points, not the lead you have when you cross the line. I did not get a perfect start, but it was enough to keep the lead and then we tried to control the situation. The two Safety Car periods complicated things slightly, wiping out the lead we had built up in the first part, but we never lost the lead of the race. The car handled very well and had a great balance. We are leading the world championship, but we know we cannot let up at all: it takes nothing to drop down the order. Heikki's accident? I was very happy when the team told me he was alright and that's the most important thing."
Felipe Massa (2nd): "These are eight very important points. It is not always possible to win as I did manage in Bahrain a fortnight ago. I made a great start and managed to pass Alonso, getting very close to Kimi. I knew I was stopping a lap before my team-mate and that therefore it would have been very difficult to get ahead of him. That's why I think that today, I did the most I could have done in this situation, bringing home valuable points for myself and for the team. Even this year, despite the banning of electronic driver aids, overtaking is pretty much impossible and the result of qualifying, along with strategy, remains crucial for deciding the finishing order."
Stefano Domenicali, Team Principal: "We are obviously delighted with this result, the best one possible. It comes as a result of the work done in preparing for the race throughout the weekend and I want to thank the whole team, both those who are here at the track and those back in Maranello, for their efforts. We have to continue in this way, paying great attention to every little detail. We are up against very strong opponents and it takes just the slightest thing for a good result to slip through ones fingers. We are leading both championships and we have to keep on down this path."
BMW Sauber
Robert Kubica (4th): "We had a very good pace during today's race. Unfortunately I lost a position at the start. Anyway at the end our gap to the leader was only five seconds. If someone had told me that yesterday I would not have believed it. I hope Heikki is ok. When I passed the accident I saw the car in a very strange position. The FIA is making great efforts for car safety, so we have to be really thankful to them."
Nick Heidfeld (9th): "At the start I managed to gain the two positions I had wanted to. That's positive, especially because recently we have had less impressive starts. I was fifth in the race when I had bad luck with the timing of the safety car period and my first pit stop. I had just passed the pit entry when I got the signal to come in. I then tried to save fuel and delay my pit stop, but in the end it was the choice between running out of fuel on the track or getting a stop and go penalty."
Dr. Mario Theissen, BMW Motorsport Director: "First of all we are all relieved that after his accident Heikki Kovalainen signalled he was okay. Robert lost a position at the start and was close behind Lewis Hamilton turning into the first corner. He was almost as close to Hamilton when he finally crossed the finish line. Nick gained two positions at the start so was well on his way. The safety-car period destroyed our strategy. We literally missed getting Nick into the pit lane before the safety car by a few seconds. As a result he had to refuel during the safety-car period, and we got a 10 second penalty because of that. For our team it was the least points we have scored so far this season, but we had a good performance throughout the weekend without any technical problems."
Willy Rampf, Technical Director: "Overall we expected more from this race. Robert lost a position to Hamilton right after the start and, because they both had a similar speed and were on the same pit stop strategy, he couldn't get third place back. Nick purely had bad luck. Just before he was supposed to come in, the Safety Car went out. His tank was empty and he was forced to enter the pit lane under the red light. The ten second penalty ruined his race."
Fernando Alonso (DNF, Engine): "This weekend has been both sweet and sour. The car was very competitive and we were up there with the Ferraris and the BMWs, which is a good first step. I think now we should hopefully start enjoying races again and racing closer to the front. Although I am disappointed not to finish, it was a nice surprise to see that we are more competitive than we thought we would be."
Nelson Piquet (DNF, Accident): "I made my first mistake early on and went off the track, but I was able to rejoin down the field and from then on I tried to attack, which meant I had to take a few risks. I am disappointed, but there is no doubt that we have made a lot of progress this weekend. I must take what I can from this race, so that I do not make the same mistakes in the future. I am now looking forward to Turkey and doing my best there."
Pat Symonds, Executive Director of Engineering: "A weekend that had a lot of potential has slipped away from us. A fifth place with Fernando looked easy today and a good showing from Nelson would have backed this up. We don't yet know the cause of the engine failure on Fernando's car, but in spite of the disappointment of the final result, we take encouragement that our relative performance has moved up. There is still a lot to do, and we will continue to work hard to improve the car."
Flavio Briatore, Managing Director: "It is disappointing to come away with nothing, especially after such a hopeful weekend. Nelson's race was spoiled when he ran wide at the beginning, but Fernando drove impeccably and in spite of the engine problem we have seen that the car is very competitive and we can look forward to the next race."
Kazuki Nakajima (7th): "It was a good race and it was important to me to score points today. I made it off the line ok, but I was then caught behind Button so I lost position, which was disappointing. I'm happy with the end result though and this race is another step forward for me. There is, of course, room for improvement but five points in the first four races is a good start in my first year."
Nico Rosberg (DNF, Engine): "In the end, this result is a combination of two things. We brought a new aero package to this race and we went the wrong way with it when it came to set-up in practice. We were able to change this for the race and went much more towards Kazuki's setting, which worked a lot better as I was able to push harder and I was much happier with that. It was going really well in the race. I had a good start, chose the right way to go off the line and went from 15th to 11th in the first lap so I knew we had a good chance to do well and overtake Jarno for sixth place. Even if I hadn't passed Jarno, I still would have finished seventh, which would have been good also, so the end result is a shame."
Sam Michael, Technical Director: "It was good to score some points with Kazuki for the team's standing in the Constructors' Championship, but it's also slightly disappointing as we should have scored more. Nico was looking good for sixth place after he took advantage of the second safety car period and pitted at the right time, but he unfortunately suffered a failure. We haven't identified the problem as yet, it's currently under investigation."
Red Bull-Renault
Mark Webber (5th): "I'm very, very happy. The team worked very hard following the test to get all the parts ready in time and it paid off. We didn't have a great start to today's race, but we had good pace and we were there at the end, it's a great to get a strong finish. I didn't have very good grip in the final stint, but we weren't under pressure at that point, so were okay. I'm happy with my driving and the team did an excellent job."
David Coulthard (12th): "It's a horrible thing about being down near the end of the grid ... you try to keep out of trouble, but it's never so easy. I got whacked by Sutil going into Turn four and picked up some light damage to the side of the car, but after that I was running okay. After my pit stop, I took a defensive line into Turn four and five to show Glock that I knew he was there, but he hit the rear of my car and punctured a tyre."
Christian Horner, Sporting Director: "It was an excellent race for Mark, well executed by both driver and team, his pace was strong all weekend and we're very pleased with fifth place. For David, the nightmare of yesterday's qualifying session continued. It looked as though he might be able to pick up a couple of points at one stage in the race, but unfortunately things just didn't go his way today, I'm sure his luck will change soon."
Fabrice Lom, Renault: "It's a very good result for us, fifth place is a strong place to finish. We've taken a step forwards in performance and we were quicker than Williams and Toyota today. For David, it was difficult starting so far back, it was always going to be hard to recover from there."
Jarno Trulli (8th): "We've scored another point but it should have been more today. This race wasn't easy but everything was going well and we were heading for sixth. Then a communications error led to the team mistakenly calling me into the pits. These things happen but that cost us two precious points today. Up to then it had been a hard weekend but we were heading for a strong result. It was a battle but I was getting the maximum out of the package and doing my best to stay as close to Webber as possible. We are in a tight group of teams and we will have to keep pushing hard on development to maintain our momentum."
Timo Glock (11th): "The start didn't go well and on the way down to the first corner I lost two or three positions. Then a car crossed in front of me and damaged my front wing. That heavily affected the first stint as I lost some aero performance and it meant we had the whole race in traffic. The car felt much better after we changed the nose at the pit stop. But later on Coulthard came out in front of me and he was slow on his out lap. He left me a bit of space and then closed it and I crashed into him. It destroyed my front wing again and that was it."
Tadashi Yamashina, Team Principal: "This fourth race weekend has been tough from the beginning on Friday practice, through qualifying to today. Still, everybody worked hard and did their best - including the drivers - and we were heading for a very strong result. Then one error cost us. After Timo's collision there was confusion between the cars and Jarno received the wrong message. So we must analyse what happened and make sure we avoid this mistake in the future. At the next race we will do our best again and hope for a better result."
Toro Rosso-Ferrari
Sebastien Bourdais (DNF, Damage): "I would not like to say exactly what happened until I see the replay. All I know is that I checked my mirrors and Nelson did not seem to be in a position to attack, even though he was close to me, but not close enough. I braked for Turn 10 quite late, started to turn into the corner and all of a sudden, he was there alongside me as I turned. That was the end of the story. It's a shame as we had done a pretty good job this weekend up to that point."
Sebastian Vettel (DNF, Accident): "This is very disappointing, especially as there was nothing I could do about it. The collision happened at Turn 4, when Adrian (Sutil) was far too optimistic in attempting an overtaking manoeuvre. He clipped an other car and that spun him round right in front of me. I tried to get through on the inside, but there was no way for me to go. I might have managed it, but I had a Super Aguri also trying to get past it. We'll just have to try again in Istanbul. Hopefully we can get the new car soon and move out of the back of the pack, where I have had so many problems at the start of races."
Franz Tost, Team Principal: "Our races are getting shorter and shorter at the moment! Vettel stopped at Turn 4 on Lap 1, while Bourdais managed six more laps. Vettel could do nothing about it as Sutil spun right in front of him and Bourdais didn't see Piquet and they collided."
Jenson Button (6th): "It was a good race for us today and I'm really pleased to finish in 6th with three points. Unfortunately the safety car came out at the wrong time for us, although I am pleased to hear that Heikki is okay. I was on a long first stint so it was bad timing and definitely cost me some places. The car was working well with the balance improving lap by lap, particularly on the last stint with harder tyres where I felt very comfortable. The team are doing a really good job and we are benefitting from Ross' technical management. I got a really good feel for the new aero package during the race today and it is definitely an improvement. The good thing is that what we are seeing from the car reflects the information from the wind tunnel. This circuit is not the best for our car as it's a bumpy circuit here and we seem to lack some driveability over the bumps. When we get to the next race in Turkey, I expect the car to perform better than here."
Rubens Barrichello (DNF, Damage): "The car was performing well today so it was especially disappointing that the incident in the pitlane with Fisichella brought my race to an end. From what we can see, it was just one of those unfortunate incidents. The team released me and advised me of traffic, so I stayed out of the fast lane. Fisichella overtook me and cut into his box clipping my front wing at the same time. I managed to get round the lap with the wing caught under the front of the car but unfortunately the damage caused to the bodywork was too great to continue and I was forced to retire. It's a shame as I could have scored some good points today. We have certainly made a step forward in performance this weekend. The new aero package has performed well and although it took some tuning this week to ensure that we achieved the optimum set-up, the car was well balanced and performing well in the race. There is still a long way to go but it is encouraging to know that we are improving step by step. I look forward to the next few races and hope that we can continue to make progress."
Ross Brawn, Team Principal: "The whole team is delighted to score some points as we embark on the European season and it is just reward after the tremendous efforts made by everyone. We have made a good step forward with the new upgrade package and today's result reflects all the hard work that the team have put into developing the car since the start of the season. We are making good progress, which is encouraging for the rest of the season and for the future. I really feel that all elements of the team, chassis and engine are beginning to gel. We have a number of smaller developments to introduce over the next few races, to tailor the package to the varying characteristics of the forthcoming circuits, and at the same time we will be working hard on the development of our next substantial upgrade for Silverstone."
Super Aguri-Honda
Takuma Sato (13th): "It was a hard race, but I enjoyed it. The start was reasonably good and I overtook a few cars. Ahead of me a few cars had a coming together and I could not avoid them and lost part of the nose, which then obviously affected my aero balance. The team said that the car looked okay, so we just fought our way through the rest of the race. At one stage we were up in the middle, running as high as ninth, and that was a fantastic feeling. The boys did a great job under difficult circumstances this weekend. I am very happy for them and all the people who are supporting us and I just hope that we can keep this momentum going."
Anthony Davidson (DNF, Radiator): "It was a disappointing end to the weekend for me. After Piquet ran wide at the beginning of the race he dragged a lot of gravel on to the track and a stone from that then damaged my water radiator, putting me out of the race. I got a good start and felt comfortable in the car up to that point, so it is a shame to have retired so early, but I'd like to thank everyone in the team for their hard work and determination this weekend."
Aguri Suzuki, Team Principal: "It was a tough race with only just over half of the competitors crossing the finish line. Despite the fact that we did not attend the test here last week, both drivers and all the mechanics and engineers have done a great job today. I am sorry for Anthony as he retired due to damage to his radiator, but he did a great job at the start. Taku had a very good race in a difficult situation and came home in 13th position, which is our best result so far this season. It has been a difficult weekend for everybody in our team and I would like to thank our partners and the fans for their continued support."
Force India-Ferrari
Giancarlo Fisichella (10th): "Not too bad, 10th is the best result of the season so far. I know several cars had accidents but I did my best. After the first safety car period, the car was very good. I was comfortable and I think I was quite competitive. Then in the last stint the grip with the hard tyres wasn't great. I was pushing but I was at the limit with the grip. I enjoyed the battle with Heidfeld - he was quicker than me but I managed to keep him behind for many laps. Better than yesterday definitely but we still need to work a lot and find something more."
Adrian Sutil (DNF, Accident): "Again a disappointing day. After a good start into turn four I was on the inside and had a try to overtake another car, but it was too close and I couldn't make the corner. I crashed into a car and my race was over then and there. A very disappointing end to the weekend."
Dr. Vijay Mallya, Team Principal: "I am so proud of this result today: a top 10 finish in our fourth ever race is quite some achievement, especially considering where this team was back at the end of last season. Giancarlo showed real star quality in the race, with a good start, pushing hard, keeping it together and actually being in a points scoring position for several laps. Keeping the car that was leading the constructors' World Championship behind us also put a big smile on my face! Unfortunately Adrian was not so lucky; he tried to move up, sadly it didn't work, but if you start close to the back you have to take risks. We now just have to work on qualifying and improve on this - if we start higher up the grid, who knows where we could go?"
Mike Gascoyne, Chief Technical Officer: "Good and bad. Both drivers had excellent starts but unfortunately Adrian just lost the car on the first lap and was forced to retire. Giancarlo drove an excellent race and was able to pick up several positions and run at the pace of the group in front as we expected. It was difficult at his first pit stop when the safety car came out as we were just seconds away from coming in, but Giancarlo did a great job to conserve fuel so we could hang on until the pit lane opened. We short fuelled him to jump the cars in the pit stop, which worked perfectly for us, but we then got bottled up behind Sato, which meant we couldn't use the light car to build up the cushion and we dropped a couple of places. It was a shame as at one point 8th place was on the cards. But well done to Giancarlo and the team - our first top 10 finish. Once again our race pace shows well, but we now have to get Saturday right as we haven't got the most out of qualifying yet."
Lewis Hamilton (3rd): "First of all I am really happy to hear that Heikki is okay. During the race I saw a car had gone into the barriers and was told it was Heikki. As soon as the team knew he was okay, Ron came on the radio and told me which was a great relief. With regard to the race it's good to be back on the podium. After qualifying, we knew it would be a difficult Grand Prix so I am actually pleased to be third. I made a good start and was able to get lots of traction and could go to the right alongside Robert almost immediately. I managed to overtake him which is usually not easy as I recall from our battles in Formula 3. I pushed extremely hard, particularly in the second and third stints and tried to keep up with the Ferraris. Actually I was pleasantly surprised about how close the competition at the top was which is great for Formula 1. We did a good job today, but there are areas where we definitely need to improve, but it's comforting to know that we are relatively close to Ferrari. I look forward to the Turkish Grand Prix where hopefully Heikki will be back in his usual fine form."
Heikki Kovalainen (DNF, Accident):
Ron Dennis, Team Principal: "Lewis drove very well to third place today - but for obvious reasons our main concerns during the race were with Heikki. I am therefore extremely pleased to be able to report that he is safe and well. Heikki was airlifted to the Hospital General de Catalunya in Sant Cugat del Valles, for precautionary checks, and will remain there overnight. However, he has no broken bones and CT scans performed at the hospital confirm that he has no head injuries and the team is optimistic that he will make a full recovery over the next few days."

So you know I wax lyrical about the importance of sunscreen (well I hope I do) and how you MUST wear it everyday, well I guess a lot of you are thinking "very well old chap, but which ONE?". There are a lot out there, and I am verrrrrry picky when it comes to my facial sunscreens (not too oily, no white cast, blends in, doesn't block pores)… so I thought I would share with you my tried and tested and much loved sunscreens to wear on an every day occasion (note that when I go out in the sun for a whole day I wear the big kahuna – the Invisible Zinc).
When choosing a sun block make sure it is just that a block and not a sunscreen (I know I know I just called them sunscreens). A sunscreen absorbs rather than reflects harmful rays. Sun blocks must have a high zinc and or titanium base to be effective and must be an SPF 30+ or above.
Do you want your collagen to breakdown, lose elasticity of your skin, get uneven skin tone and lines and wrinkles? No? Didn't think so… So read on and get shopping!
1. O Cosmedics Mineral Pro SPF 30+ Triple Defence Protection (AU$45, 75g)
Mineral Pro SPF 30+ is a sheer lightweight formula which delivers triple defense protection. 20% natural zinc oxides provides true broad-spectrum protection, preventing skin damage as well as assisting skin healing and reducing inflammation. Resveratrol and Palmitoyl Loligo peptides rejuvenate, hydrate and further protect the skin. The perfect calming skin treatment and the ultimate skin primer before make up. Perfect for everyday use!
Key Ingredients:
ZINC OXIDE 20% w/w
Phenoxyethanol, Diazolidinylurea.
Complies with AS/NZS 2604:1998
2. Ultra UV Protective Daily Moisturiser SPF 30+ Hydrating (AU$65, 100ml)
Packed with antioxidants and featuring super effective broad-spectrum sun protection, Ultra UV Protective Daily Moisturiser SPF 30+ is an enduring best-seller. The creamy, nourishing formula glides on without any of the usual white tint and offers great protection against UVA rays (the ones responsible for photo-ageing), so no age-defying battle is complete without it. This broad spectrum SPF 30+ daily moisturiser (free of nano particles) offers triple skin protection with a boost of hydration. It delivers a vital blend of moisturising ingredients: shea butter, panthenol and nicotinamide to support the skin's lipid barrier function. The hydrating properties make it a great base under makeup too.
Active Ingredients: Octyl methoxycinnamate 2.0% w/w, Butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane 5.0% w/w, Octocrylene 3.0% w/w, Bemotrizinol 2.0% w/w, Phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic Acid 4.0% w/w. Also Contains: Benzyl alcohol and Sorbic acid.
3. La Roche-Posay Anthelios XL SPF 50+ Extreme Fluid (AU $25.95, 50ml) – Available from Priceline
This one is a recent purchase for me, and already has made this prestigious list! I was quite excited to see this range on sale at Priceline a few weeks ago, and even more excited when I saw that they had a 50+ fluid sunblock range. The Anthelios XL Fluid Extreme 50+ has been certified as SPF50+ Very high UVA/UVB protection – which is music to my ears! The skin is protected from sunburn, skin reactions and cell damage from UV rays. This is a fluid (so think more watery than your usual sunscreens), but is actually perfect for putting on in the morning before makeup, because this consistency melts into the skin almost instantly and doesn't leave you feeling like you just caked something greasy onto your skin. It doesn't leave you with a white tint, and I haven't had any congestion from this one either. If you haven't jumped onto the 50+ bandwagon yet, I strongly advise you do! It's amazing!
Key Ingredients: Aqua/Water, Isododecane, Isononyl Isononanoate, Alcohol Denat, Dicaprylyl Carbonate, Cyclohexasiloxane, Octocrylene, Titanium Dioxide, Isocetyl Stearate, Silica.
*This product is compliant with the new Australian Standard for UVB and UVA efficacy criteria set by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) on 10th November 2012.
I must add that all the products listed in this post, are listed mainly due to the fact that they work well under makeup and do not leave me with congested skin and breakouts. Like always though, what may be good for the goose (me!) may not be good for the gander (you girls! or boys!) and I can't guarantee that these will all work for you and your skin type.
O Cosmedics sun block was gifted to me. As per my disclosure statement, this does not effect my opinion. I have purchased the others with my own hard earned moolah.

That said, however, we see international conflict prevention and crisis management as the likely operations in the future. In that regard, participation with multinational forces will continue, and in the area of maritime security I believe that increased multinational tasking and conduct of operations will be an absolute necessity.
The German Navy will remain capable of providing a broad profile while further reducing its organizational overhead in the next five years. New multiple-crew concepts, new intensive-use platforms, enhanced mission modularity, as well as our new home-base training concept, will ensure more flexibility to meet upcoming challenges. Once the new F-125 frigates, the multi-role combat ship, and the joint support ship have joined our fleet, we will have upgraded our maritime capabilities significantly.
With our conceptual setup and our broad array of capabilities we will be able to offer a wide variety of options for the response to current and future to risks and threats. In an era of austere defense budgets I see the will for bi- and multi-lateral cooperation increasing to provide security for the common goals of prosperity and freedom of the seas.

Why do women have tender breasts before their periods and also when they're pregnant? And how do you know if it's due to pregnancy or a period?
– Charlisse*
When women get their periods or are pregnant, their hormones change. Even though periods and pregnancy are different, the hormone changes that go with them can cause lots of similar issues — like breast tenderness, acne, and mood changes.
If you've had sex, it can be hard to know if things like breast tenderness are caused by a period or pregnancy. If you think you might be pregnant, see your doctor or visit a health clinic like Planned Parenthood.
To help avoid an unplanned pregnancy or STDs, use condoms every time you have sex.

– WWE's website has a new article up on NXT Champion Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns – the men who attacked Ryback in the main event of WWE's Survivor Series pay-per-view.
Here's what they wrote about each man:
Seth Rollins: "Seth Rollins is the first ever WWE NXT Champion, having won a tournament to crown the inaugural titleholder. This native of Davenport, Iowa, came into NXT with a sterling reputation from his work on the independent circuit and immediately made an impact in WWE's developmental system. Perhaps the word best used to describe Rollins would be "chaotic." His in-ring style is calculated, yet frantic. Employing a combination of high-risk maneuvers and devastating strikes, Rollins' offense is spectacular and elicits show-closing ovations."
Roman Reigns: "Like his fellow WWE NXT standouts, Roman Reigns is a fierce competitor and an exceptional athlete. Inside the ring, Reigns is a heavy hitter, and he is just as aggressive outside the ring. The powerhouse always acts with a sense of purpose, depicting power and commanding respect. Put simply, Roman Reigns views himself as the most valuable commodity in NXT."
Dean Ambrose: "Dean Ambrose is every bit as effective as Rollins, but there's something slightly off about this dangerous competitor. From the moment he marched onto the scene, WWE NXT fans were unable to take their eyes off Ambrose. Fearless, wild and always unpredictable, the iconoclast more than lived up to his reputation as a world-class competitor and infamous troublemaker."
"In October last year, Ambrose created quite a stir when WWE champion CM Punk appeared at NXT for an autograph signing. Ambrose decided to verbally assault Punk on the microphone, resulting in a raucous and unforgettable scene when The Straight Edge Savior challenged Ambrose that evening. The 30-minute showdown between the two physical competitors blew away the lucky fans who witnessed it."

After forcing extras, Royals see streak end
NEW YORK -- The streak is over, but the Royals went down fighting.
Eric Young Jr.'s two-run homer in the 11th inning gave the Mets a 4-2 victory, ending Kansas City's nine-game winning streak as a crowd of 32,032 fans whooped it up Friday night at Citi Field. The streak had been the Royals' longest since 2003.View Full Game Coverage
NEW YORK -- The streak is over, but the Royals went down fighting.
Eric Young Jr.'s two-run homer in the 11th inning gave the Mets a 4-2 victory, ending Kansas City's nine-game winning streak as a crowd of 32,032 fans whooped it up Friday night at Citi Field. The streak had been the Royals' longest since 2003.View Full Game Coverage
Omar Quintanilla drew a one-out walk before right-hander Luis Mendoza got the second out, but Young hammered a 3-1 pitch over the right-field fence for a walk-off win.
"I knew it I hit it hard. I really don't worry about the dimensions of the field," Young said. "Q was running as soon as I hit it. I was looking for a line drive in that situation. Thankfully, it got up."
For the first time in 10 games, the Royals were watching someone else celebrate a victory.
"It was a hard-fought game. We had opportunities to push runs across, especially late, to get Holly [closer Greg Holland] in the game, but we just couldn't do it," Royals manager Ned Yost said.
Mendoza, normally a long reliever, was brought into the game in the 10th inning because Tim Collins and Luke Hochevar weren't available out of the bullpen.
"He was the last guy I had," Yost said.
Collins was not with the team because he was with his ailing grandfather, but he's expected to rejoin his teammates on Saturday. Hochevar was unavailable after throwing two innings in Thursday's win.
In the 10th, the Mets got the first two runners on base against Mendoza, but he escaped the jam by getting ex-Royal John Buck to rap into an inning-ending double play. In the 11th, with Quintanilla on base, Mendoza threw three balls to Young. After a strike, Young sent the next pitch soaring.
"A home run, that's all," Mendoza said in the quiet visitors' clubhouse.
The Mets took a 2-1 lead into the ninth inning, but the Royals didn't let it end there.
Mets closer Bobby Parnell has a stiff neck, so right-hander David Aardsma was called on to pitch the ninth. Pinch-hitter Miguel Tejada led off with a double to left-center field and Alcides Escobar walked. Elliot Johnson put down a perfect sacrifice bunt to advance the runners. Billy Butler was sent out to pinch-hit for Jarrod Dyson, and the Mets intentionally walked him to load the bases.
"We got in a situation where we knew they were probably going to walk Billy, but we had to put Elliot in that situation to get the runners in scoring position," Yost said.
He still had Lorenzo Cain and Alex Gordon coming up next.
Cain hit a long sacrifice fly to center field, with Tejada jogging home to tie the game at 2. Left-hander Pedro Feliciano relieved Aardsma and got Gordon to bounce out.
The drama continued in the Mets' half of the ninth against reliever Aaron Crow.
Ike Davis led off with a double down the right-field line. Pinch-runner Andrew Brown was bunted to third by Quintanilla, but pinch-hitter Justin Turner struck out. Young was intentionally walked and Juan Lagares grounded out to send the game into extra innings.
The loss was just the second for the Royals in nine overtime games this season.
Until Young's home run, the Mets had gone nine innings without a run. They jumped ahead of right-hander Wade Davis in the first inning. Lagares slapped a one-out single, and David Wright pounded a home run over the left-field fence for a 2-0 lead.
"Wade Davis did a great job," Yost said. "Just one pitch, and the pitch wasn't even a horrible pitch. It was kind of down-and-in to an All-Star that golfed it out of the ballpark."
That handed support to right-hander Dillon Gee, who shut down the Royals for seven innings before being relieved after issuing a walk to start the eighth.
"We do it all the time," the Royals' Johnson said. "It seems like we really put things together in the late innings. It's the early innings that give us some trouble sometimes, whether we win or lose."
Indeed, the Royals didn't get their first run until the eighth. Cain drew the walk from Gee. Reliever Scott Rice nicked Gordon with a pitch and Cain finally scored on the last of two forceout plays.
Wade Davis kept busy working his way out of jams. After pitching his only 1-2-3 inning in the fifth inning, Davis was pulled for a pinch-hitter to start the sixth. Along with two runs, he gave up eight hits with no walks and five strikeouts. He threw 104 pitches.
He got good backing from the bullpen's Kelvin Herrera, Louis Coleman and Crow, who combined for four scoreless innings. Coleman threw two perfect innings.
The Royals' hot streak -- the nine straight was part of an 11-2 surge after the All-Star break -- came at a time the American League Central teams ahead of them also were rolling. The Tigers won their sixth straight on Friday night, while the Indians had their streak ended at eight.
"We had to do it," Johnson said. "Imagine if we weren't winning. Think of how those teams are playing. And finally Cleveland mixed in a loss today, but Detroit won again, what a shocker. You always say, worry about yourself and win, but it'd be nice if they could mix in a few losses for us."
The Royals, despite all the recent victories, are 7 1/2 games behind the Tigers.
One streak was over, but the Royals were looking ahead.
"Nine out of 10, I think any team would take that," Crow said. "Just go out there tomorrow and start a new one."
"It never feels good after you lose a game, but yeah, it was a nice streak," Yost said. "Now let's see if we can start another one."

Why do girls always fall for the wrong guy? Their mothers warn them about him. Their friends shake their heads disapprovingly. Their minds tell them to escape while the going is good. But no! oh no! Their hearts are another story. You see, they are sending all the wrong signals. His name alone is enough to scramble their brains and set their hearts racing.
Meet Raj. He is the stuff of dreams, with the looks of a 'butter wouldn't melt in my mouth' good boy.
Who can blame him for falling in love as many times as love is fortunate enough to find him. It's not his fault that he's a heartbreaker, it's in his DNA.
Come discover his three love stories; Raj and Mahi, Raj and Radhika, Raj and Gayatri. Different ladyloves at different times in his life. And each of them, teach him a little bit about love and a little bit about life, in their own sweet, sexy or sassy way.
Come fall in love... three times..

Harvey throws scoreless ball as Mets rock Phils
PHILADELPHIA -- For his latest trick, Matt Harvey not only pitched successfully to more contact, but also made some himself.
By this stage of his short and brilliant 26-game Major League career, Harvey's double up the right-center-field gap to key a three-run Mets fifth inning was the more startling achievement of his rain-shortened six scoreless innings Sunday, but by no means the more impressive.View Full Game Coverage
PHILADELPHIA -- For his latest trick, Matt Harvey not only pitched successfully to more contact, but also made some himself.
By this stage of his short and brilliant 26-game Major League career, Harvey's double up the right-center-field gap to key a three-run Mets fifth inning was the more startling achievement of his rain-shortened six scoreless innings Sunday, but by no means the more impressive.View Full Game Coverage
Harvey, coming off a 13-strikeout performance in Atlanta, fanned six and allowed only two hits during the Mets' 8-0 victory before manager Terry Collins decided not to send his phenom back out following a 20-minute rain delay in the top of the seventh. But the kid, who moved his record to 7-1 and lowered his ERA to 2.05, had brought plenty of swing-and-miss stuff when needed, striking out Domonic Brown twice with 100- and 99-mph high fastballs during the only two Phillies threats of the game.
"I think you will see 100 [mph] at times, don't think you will see it every inning," said Collins. "Matt knows those six-pitch innings when you get fly balls and ground balls, those really count to get you through the season, instead of trying to get 250 strikeouts."
There is a time and a place. And it was not a good time to be in Ben Revere's place when Harvey, who had surrendered a Ryan Howard single to start the second, blew a 100-mph fastball through Revere's wheelhouse to end the threat.
"Yeah, I let that one go," Harvey smiled.
The Mets, who had rallied from a 7-1 deficit to tie Saturday's game in the ninth, only to lose on Kevin Frandsen's walk-off homer, picked their broken hearts off the ground with ease Sunday, knowing who was going to the hill for them.
"I thought the [Phillies] might be in trouble when the first pitch of the game is a curveball for a strike," said David Wright. "I saw the look on Jimmy Rollins' face and then looked into their bench.
"Guy throws upper 90s, then he throws a curve for a strike. Pretty impressive. By now you are running out of things to say. It's Matt Harvey. Nothing to say about him now that hasn't been said before."
Collins, at least, found the words "that's enough" when he told Harvey his day was done after only 72 pitches.
"Not worth it, just can't take the chance," said the manager. "There is too much upside."
And Harvey said he understood.
"Absolutely," he said. "If [the delay] had been 10 minutes, it might have been a different story, but we had a six, seven run lead and have an off-day tomorrow for the bullpen."
That bullpen, by the way, has now allowed two earned runs in 27 innings after LaTroy Hawkins and Brandon Lyon finished up almost as cleanly as had Harvey. It's good to have some working room, and the Mets' usually challenged offense had taken huge advantage of second-base umpire D.J. Reyburn's ruling that Revere dropped Juan Lagares' fly ball to lead off the fifth.
After gloving the ball, Revere unsuccessfully tried to drop it into his bare hand, and Reyburn flagged the unconventional glove-to-hand exchange. After an argument by Phillies manager Charlie Manuel and a conference of the umpires, the error stood. Lagares stayed at third when Omar Quintanilla tapped to the drawn-in Rollins, but Phillies starter John Lannan left a 1-2 fastball over the plate to Harvey, who smacked it up against the fence in right-center on one hop, scoring Lagares and opening up a big inning.
"Locked in," smiled Harvey, meaning Harvey, the batter.
Later in the game, he almost decapitated reliever Joe Savery with another drive before the Phillies pitcher recovered to get the out. No blood was shed, but in the fifth, the Mets had smelled it in the aftermath of Revere's gift.
Eric Young scored Harvey with a double, then scored on Wright's double. With the score 3-0, that was plenty of breathing room for Harvey, but when Lannan walked Josh Satin and John Buck to lead off the sixth, the Mets added more. Lagares' double scored Satin, and Buck came in on Quintanilla's sacrifice fly to boost the lead to 6-0.
Marlon Byrd doubled in Wright, who had tripled, for the seventh run in the seventh, and Wright provided the exclamation point with a homer in the ninth -- his fourth extra-base hit of the game, which tied a Mets record. The previous Mets player to have four extra-base hits in a game was Edgardo Alfonzo on Aug. 30, 1999, at Houston.
"It's huge to have Marlon swing the bat the way he is behind me, because I am seeing better pitches to hit," said Wright, who is hitting .405 with nine extra-base hits, five homers and 11 RBIs in his last 17 games. "When the guy behind you is swinging the bat well, they are going to be less likely to throw you 3-1 sliders and more likely to challenge you.
"He has set the table for us and provided some thump. ... He's been a tremendous shot in the arm for us."
No pitcher has been a shot in the arm to the franchise like Harvey's. This was his ninth start of the season in which he has thrown six or more innings while allowing one or zero earned runs.
With Chase Utley at second on a leadoff double off a curveball in the fourth, it appeared the pitcher was working smartly around the red-hot Ryan Howard in issuing a four-pitch walk. Appearances were deceiving.
"Not at all," Harvey said. "I got out of whack a little bit.
"The outcome of the situation was good, but I don't like pitching around anybody."
The outcome was good, because he blew one at 99 mph past Brown, then got Delmon Young to tap weekly into a forceout. That was the last sniff at a run the Phillies got against Harvey, for reasons most simply put by Revere at the end of the day:
"He's got some powerful stuff."

One of her guests was talking too loudly, and after several attempts to shut the woman up, the host tried to kick her out of her apartment. The argument turned physical, replete with clumps of hair (we're secretly hoping it was a weave) being pulled out of scalps, until the host grabbed a paring knife from the kitchen and repeatedly stabbed the woman in the chest and neck.

Welcome to Ecuador
Buenos días todos,
Wooohooo, first blog posting today! I invite you to follow me on my journey here in Guayaquil, Ecuador in South America. I left the USA on August 27, 2012 with two stops, one in Ciudad de Guatemala (Guatemala City) and the other in Ciudad de Panamá (Panama City) before I reached my final destination, Quito, Ecuador. Quito is the capital of Ecuador and located in the Andes Mountains. I traveled the city of Quito and experienced the life of the 'Sierra'. I also stepped on the equator, literally. I took numerous videos of indigenous tribes playing traditional music and it sounds amazing; I am eager to share.
The first thing to mention about Ecuador-the food is AMAZING. Almost every dish is served with rice and soup of some sort. Rice is a staple crop here so I have yet to eat a meal without rice and I have been here over two months. One of my favorite snacks here is patacones, fried green plantains, que rico, especially when they top it with queso! After departing from Quito we traveled to Chimborazo which is an inactive volcano here. My group started at the first refugee station and climbed to the second. I immediately felt the effects of the altitude and I had a hard time breathing. We were given cocoa tea which is supposed to help, needless to say, I was getting dizzy. On the descent I met the most famous Ecuadorian mountain climber who recently lost his legs in a climbing accident. After Chimborazo we went to other small towns in the Sierra and then embarked on our journey down the mountains to the coast where I will be living until December. Guayaquil, Ecuador is the largest city of Ecuador. When I first arrived I could not believe the huge gap between the two social classes. They say Ecuador has all three social classes: high, middle, and low class, but I have only seen, rich, richer, and poor. Once getting acquainted with my new city, I started my university, Universidad Espíritu Santo (UEES). I am studying Spanish here and interning at a local public hospital in the surgery department.
The President and owner of UEES is on the Board of Trustees at William Woods University, so our schools are kind of related. I started my internship at Luchadores del Norte which is a medical clinic in the poorest part of the city, I saw around 50 patients a day (8:00AM-11AM). I then moved on to Hospital Luis Vernaza, a public hospital that has more technology than Luchadores, I observe in the surgery department and get to assist when needed. Today I watched a 5in x 3 in tumor above the right kidney get taken out-awesome. Another awesome fact about Guayaquil, it is located only 40 minutes from the beach, needless to say, I have been several times. While Missouri continues to delve into fall and winter, Ecuador is only getting warmer and sunnier. J Well…I am off to lunch and I will continue to post and share my experiences, I will also post pictures and videos for you to keep up to date with my journey. If you have any questions, please email me at firstname.lastname@example.com. Enjoy your Halloween!
Hello guys this is a awesome place and good game the great information here click this link roblox robux is online video game this game is very famous in asia just play the game and full enjoy thanks for it.

The Canisius College zoo biology program announces the opening of its ninth mini-zoo, "Amazoo: The Rainforest Connection." Located in Room 102 of the college's Health Science Building, at the corner of Jefferson and Delavan avenues, Amazoo is free and open to the public. It runs Monday through Friday, Nov. 11-21, from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m.
Naturalistic exhibits constructed by Canisius College students display 13 species on loan from The Buffalo Zoo and other sources, including the red-legged tarantula, giant Brazilian cockroach, freshwater stingray, red-tailed boa constrictor, green-cheeked conures, green and black poison dart frog, blue poison dart frog, amazon milk frog, red-footed tortoise, South American river turtle, fulvous duck, prehensile-tailed porcupine and the agouti.
Their habitats were designed by students in the Canisius College zoo biology program under the guidance of Susan Margulis, Ph.D., associate professor of biology and animal behavior, ecology and conservation and biology, with the assistance and support of The Buffalo Zoo staff and Pete Paufler, lead mechanic for facilities management.
The mini-zoo group project began in September. Students studied the principles of exhibitry and husbandry in class, at The Buffalo Zoo, and at 10 out-of-town zoos, which they traveled to throughout the semester. Based on their studies, students then converted a first-floor storage room and adjoining plant-growth room into a simulated rainforest habitat.
For more information about "Amazoo: The Rainforest Connection," contact the Office of Public Relations at 716-888-2790.
Canisius is one of 28 Jesuit universities in the nation.

"I've always felt that what I want to do is use the power of pictures to deliver news in a way that matters to people. Television stories, if they are good, can stay with you because they draw you in emotionally."
"I've always felt that what I want to do is use the power of pictures to deliver news in a way that matters to people," says Douglas Adams '88, producer for the NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams. "Television stories, if they are good, can stay with you because they draw you in emotionally."
Adams' goal is to produce news stories that break through the clutter and stay with you for a while.
Over the past decade, he has covered just about every major domestic story. His beat covers Capitol Hill and politics, and he produces nearly 100 spots a year. In 1998, he worked with correspondent Lisa Myers, producing NBC's coverage of the Clinton-Lewinsky scandal. Adams spent 14 grueling months on the story, writing more than 150 pieces, which he describes as "demoralizing and fascinating at the same time."
He believes that the press coverage of the scandal played a significant role in changing the relationship between the media and politicians in general. He says, "Politicians have become a lot more wary of the press, and it makes our job harder."
In 2002, Adams covered the Enron scandal and its fallout for six months and was awarded the Joan Barone Award for Journalism Excellence. In 2004, he was nominated for an Emmy for his work covering the move to electronic voting. Other awards on his shelf include two Gerald Loeb Awards, as well as an Edward R. Murrow Award for his work on the Washington, D.C., sniper story.
This past year, after having been nominated for an Emmy 13 times, he received his first award for producing a series on the business and financial impacts of Hurricane Katrina.
Looking back at the preparation Bucknell gave him for his career in broadcast journalism, Adams says that Bucknell was a great training ground because the most important skills one needs as a journalist are to be inquisitive and to write well. "Some of the best preparation you can have in this business is to read books, to learn about politics, history, and literature."
He credits his experience working on The Bucknellian as on-the-job training. "I can talk to senators or congressmen because I learned to have the courage to question my University president, Gary Sojka, and the Board of Trustees about our policies regarding Bucknell's investment policy in South Africa."
Says Adams, "I know it sounds quaint, but I got the skills that I use now covering stories on campus back then."

WASHINGTON, Sept. 17 (UPI) -- Tuesday is the 1,000th consecutive day that average U.S. retail gasoline prices stayed above the $3 per gallon mark, motor club AAA reports.
AAA said the average retail price for a gallon of regular unleaded gasoline Tuesday was $3.51. That's about the same as the average reported one month ago but more than 30 cents cheaper than the same time last year.
Refiners use different additives in gasoline during the summer ozone season, which lasts from June 1 to Sept. 14. Winter-grade fuel is cheaper to produce, meaning consumers can typically expect to pay less at the pump.
Bob Darbelnet, president and chief executive officer at AAA, said $3 per gallon gasoline is likely a thing of the past.
"While a few lucky drivers may occasionally pay less than $3 per gallon, the national average is likely to remain more costly into the future," he said in a statement Monday.
AAA said it expects the average retail price will stay above the $3.00 per gallon mark for the foreseeable future, barring another economic meltdown.
The motor club said the streak for a national average price in excess of $3 began Dec. 23, 2010.

Author Notes:
When I watch cooking shows with the best chefs and all their creative ideas, I get inspired to try some new things. I have seen sushi rolls made with vegetables and fruits but the technique for rolling looked to me complicated.
After doing some thinking, I decided to make Sashimi with fruit for dessert.
I adjusted a recipe for Rice Pudding and made a dipping sauce.
My family played the role of judges and the dish got high marks.
Next time I will try to use mango or figs.

Considering the size of the task at hand, some mistakes are inevitable. Sometimes they are hardly noticeable, and sometimes they are doozies. This year we had a little bit of both, and in every case, we feel terrible.
We sincerely apologize, both to our readers and, in particular, to the hard-working wrestlers who were inadvertently omitted from this year's "PWI 500." We promise to be more careful next year to ensure similar mistakes don't happen again.
Let's go over the errors:
• In the "doozy" category, we failed to include reigning IWGP champion Hiroshi Tanahashi, who had a dominant year in New Japan.This was obviously a huge oversight on our part--made worse by the fact that he was mentioned in so many other Japanese wrestlers' profiles. Certainly, an argument could be made that Tanahashi, who shattered all kinds of records between 2011 and 2012, should have been ranked above them all. We can tell you this much: At one point, Tanahashi was ranked very high on our list. But somewhere in the process of shuffling wrestlers around before finalizing the list, we omitted him altogether and did not notice until it was too late. We're embarrassed by the mistake and sincerely apologize to Tanahashi, and to our readers.
• Bray Wyatt is ranked twice, at numbers 167 and 244. The error stemmed from the fact that, at one point, we had him under two different names, Bray Wyatt and Husky Harris. And so a scan of the list in search of repeats did not catch the duplication. And because different writers wrote the two profiles, neither realized the mistake. Later, we changed Harris to is current wrestling character, Wyatt, but did not catch the fact that we was still listed twice. Again, we apologize for the error. For the record, Wyatt should officially be ranked at number 167. Number 244 belongs to Yoshihiro Tajiri.
• We made a similar mistake with Silver King, who is also ranked twice. He's at 182 as Silver Kain, the name he occasionally uses when wrestling under a mask, and at 283 as Silver King. Again, because the names are different, we didn't immediately notice the error. Officially, he's number 182.
• Because of a layout error, there is no entry under number 204. The spot should have gone to Cody Deaner.
We will convene a staff meeting over the next few weeks to see how to handle subsequent publications of the 2012 "PWI 500."
In the meantime, below are the bios of the omitted wrestlers.
HIROSHI TANAHASHI (5'11", 230, 19, 22) Dominant New Japan superstar shattered multiple records over the past year, during which he wore the prestigious IWGP heavyweight championship for the fifth and sixth time . . . His fifth run with the title began in January of last year and lasted 404 days, the second longest in NJPW history, behind only Shinya Hashimoto's 1996-97 reign . . . He tied Tatsumi Fujimami's record for most IWGP title reigns and bested Yuji Nagata's record for most title defenses during a reign at 11 . . . Those included wins against Giant Bernard, Shinsuke Nakamura, Tetsuya Naito, Toru Yano, and Nagata .. . Lost the title to Kazuchika Okada in February, but won it back near the end of the evaluation period in June . . . Also saw some success tag teaming with Hirooki Goto in The Billion Powers . . . Somewhat undersized for a heavyweight , but makes up for it with a dizzying array of innovative moves, including his Bridging Dragon Suplex.
CODY DEANER (6', 220, 12, 267) Wrestling redneck competes in the Ontario independent circuit, including for TWA Powerhouse, ProWrestling Xtreme, and Great Canadian Wrestling . . . Teamed with Derek Wylde to capture the TWA tag team championship at Summerbash 2011 . . . Previously worked in TNA.
TAJIRI (5'8", 210, 18, 183) Former WWE and ECW sensation remains active in Japan, both as a wrestler and a promoter . . . Was a driving force behind the SMASH promotion before it folded this year . . . In April, the "Japanese Buzzsaw" founded a new company, Wrestling New Classic.
