The city of Chicago is famous for its many restaurants and food specialties. Unfortunately for those Chicagoans on a diet, the food that Chicago is known for is deep dish pizza, hot dogs, and other fattening specialties. If you live in Chicago and are trying to lose weight, consider diet food delivery to your home. While everyone else spends the hot summer days at The Taste of Chicago, gorging themselves on fatty foods, you can be at home eating healthy meals and snacks. What's more, we are willing to bet that you won't feel like you're missing out.
Diet food delivery is a great idea for a busy city dweller such as yourself. After a long day working downtown, and fighting for a place to stand on the "el" train on the way home, the last thing you want to do is stop at a store to buy groceries. You certainly don't want to waste your precious free time chopping, weighing, seasoning, and cooking. You have better ways to spend your time, like trips to Wrigley Field or The Cell, or catching a great band at the Metro. Leave all the cooking and preparation to someone else, and try diet food delivery!
While most typical delivery companies in Chicago provide unhealthy choices, like the aforementioned deep dish pizza, with diet food delivery, you will enjoy three healthy nutritious meals a day, delivered right to your door!

It is so difficult to understand the complicated language that adorns the packaging of so called health foods.

Take the guesswork out the process and get diet food delivery to your home. You do not need to waste time reading the packaging on all of the food items at the store when you can have someone else do all the hard work for you.

Abby Wambach scored her 155th international goal, moving within three of tying Mia Hamm's record, and the U.S. women's team wasted a two-goal lead in a 3-3 exhibition tie against Germany on Friday night in Offenbach.
Playing on the 100th anniversary of the founding of the U.S. Soccer Federation, the Americans extended their unbeaten streak to 30 games.
Wambach put the U.S. ahead in the 47th minute off a cross from Megan Rapinoe, who doubled the lead when she sent a half-volley inside the far post in the 58th.
Germany, second to the U.S. in the FIFA rankings, got a goal from Kim Kulig in the 53rd. Lauren Cheney put a header in the goal three minutes later, but it was disallowed for offside, and Alex Morgan gave the Americans a 3-1 lead in the 71st from Lauren Cheney's deep cross.
Celia Okoyino da Mbabi converted a penalty kick in the 85th and Anja Mittag tied it two minutes later. Morgan's header was saved off the goal line by Verena Faisst in the fourth minute of stoppage time.
The U.S. is unbeaten in 11 matches against Germany.
"That was a really good team performance,'' Germany coach Silvia Neid said.

April 2, 2008 -- Members of Congress called on the FDA Wednesday to move faster in forcing drug companies to include safety-reporting information in their television and radio ads.
The lawmakers want "direct-to-consumer" advertisements crowding the airwaves during nightly news and other broadcasts to include information telling consumers how to report potential side effects to the FDA.
The agency tracks so-called "adverse events" and uses reports from doctors and patients to tip them off to potential safety problems with drugs on the market. The system is voluntary, and agency scientists complain that it misses the vast majority of drug reactions that occur.
"When only a fraction of adverse drug reactions are reported to the FDA, that means the system is failing," says Rep. Rosa DeLauro, D-Conn., who chairs the House subcommittee controlling FDA's budget.
"Consumer reporting is an alarm system," says Rep. Jan Shakowski, D-Ill.
FDA and Ad Requirements
A law enacted in September 2007 requires print drug ads to state, "You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch, or call 1-800-FDA-1088." There's no requirement that broadcast ads carry the statement, though the law required the FDA to begin studying the issue by January 2008.
The study has not yet been completed, and in late December the Consumers Union petitioned the FDA to require the statement on TV and radio drug ads.
"We know drug ads are everywhere, so at the very least giving people an opportunity to report drug side effects should be available," says Liz Foley, who leads drug advertising efforts at Consumers Union.
FDA spokeswoman Rita Chappelle said the agency is reviewing the group's petition. "All of this is in process right now, so it is not accurate to say this isn't going on."
Chappelle would not confirm whether the agency had begun studying the issue.
Jeff Trewhitt, a spokesman for the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA), the industry's main lobbying group, says the group will not comment until the FDA has completed its study.
"We want them to finish their study on the feasibility of adding this information and we want to see what they recommend," Trewhitt says.
Direct-to-consumer advertising is credited with driving billions in U.S. sales, though it is impossible to pinpoint the ads direct impact on prescription numbers. DeLauro cited a New England Journal of Medicine article published last month detailing a $200 million advertising campaign for the cholesterol drug Vytorin. The article credited the campaign with helping drive total sales to $5 billion in 2007.
Findings from a recently published study show that Vytorin, which combines the unique cholesterol drug Zetia with the older, cheaper statin drug Zocor, was no better than Zocor alone at slowing plaque buildup in high-risk patients.

Car Review
2013 Honda Accord Coupe: Real-World Review
Not too long ago, we drove the 2013 Honda Accord Touring Sedan, which made for a nice comparison to our long-term EX-L 4-cylinder version. More recently, we tested yet another version of Honda's all-new-for-2013 Accord. This time, it's the EX-L V6 Coupe.
Save the Manuals!
The 2013 Honda Accord Coupe has the same 278-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 engine as the Touring Sedan, but this time we requested the 6-speed manual transmission. For years, Honda's manual transmissions have been regarded as the best in the business, and that holds true here. The clutch is very light, and most will find pleasure in rowing their own gears. The only way to get this powertrain combination is to opt for the 2013 Honda Accord coupe, as the manual is only paired with the 4-cylinder in sedan form.
By offering this combo in coupe form only, Honda has created an under-the-radar sports car. With a 0-to-60 time of just over six seconds, the Accord is certainly quick, if not deceptively fast. The exhaust sounds great when pushed hard, but it settles down nicely and practically disappears when cruising down the highway. Those looking for higher fuel economy will want to select the 6-speed automatic, as it is rated at an EPA-estimated 25 miles per gallon combined, while the manual is rated at 3 mpg less.
Split-Personality Interior
If you've been in any Accord since the mid '90s, you will instantly feel right at home in the 2013 version. Every button and switch is exactly where you remember it being, and all those locations just seem right. The chosen materials are nice to look at and pleasant to touch. Unlike other vehicles we recently tested, the Accord remembers settings after the car is turned off. If you were, say, being economical and had Eco mode on, it will still be on the next time you start the car.
Unfortunately, Honda's navigation system feels like a remnant from the 1990s. Although Honda considers the 2013 Accord's version to be "significantly improved," it seems they added more bells and whistles to a system that ranks substantially behind many competitors. For example, the FM traffic feature will show incidents ahead, but you must take several steps (one of which is removing your eyes from the road) to see what has happened and how traffic has been affected. We recommend saving yourself $2,000 by skipping the navigation.
Having tested many flavors of the all-new 2013 Honda Accord, it's easy to see why it continues to be one of the most popular vehicles on the road. The extensive list of both standard and optional technologies, the various engine and transmission choices and the focus on safety make a compelling argument. If you're in the market for a midsize vehicle, try out a few different combinations of Honda's most popular car.

PowerColor Radeon HD 7790 Turbo Duo Review
PowerColor Radeon HD 7790 Turbo Duo Introduction:
As AMD and its partners worked to fill the product stack from top to bottom over the past 14 months, they left a significant gap open between the performance delivered by the HD 7770 and HD7850. Not only is there a performance gap but a 70 to 80 dollar price gap to fill. Fitting into this price/performance gap is the HD 7790 and specifically today the PowerColor HD 7790 Turbo Duo. As a non-reference design you get a card that is equipped with all the design enhancements from PowerColor including an improved 4+1+1 phase power management system and a dual fan cooling solution that is supposed to run up to 10% cooler and 5% quieter than the reference design. Straight from the factory the PowerColor HD 7790 Turbo Duo is equipped to run the boost clock speed up to 7.5% higher for improved performance at a 1080p resolution. Boost clock speeds of up to 1075MHz are sure to improve the gaming performance over the 1030MHz reference designs.
Priced at $159 this card sees a slight cost up tick over the reference design yet offers improvements that offset that cost. Priced at the same point as NVIDIA's GTX 650Ti it should prove interesting to see how well the HD 7790 compares.
PowerColor Radeon HD 7790 Turbo Duo Closer Look:
PowerColor has definitely changed the look of its packaging for this card, the HD 7790 Turbo Duo. The front is all black with the Turbo Duo logo cut out to fit around the embossed shell inside. Information contained on the front shows this version of the HD 7790 is a card that supports overclocking, uses AMD's Graphics Core Next architecture, and supports Eyefinity and DIrect X 11.1. The back panel lists the baseline specifications and system requirements. The Turbo Duo version of PowerColor's HD 7790 line up uses its Gold Power Kit, a feature set that includes SVI2 power management and a 4+1+1phase power circuit. As the name implies, the Turbo Duo features a dual fan cooling solution that is said to run 10% cooler than the reference design while running 5% quieter.
Inside the outer sleeve the embossed Turbo Duo logo is clearly evident. Inside the card is held in place securely with the accessory bundle under the cardboard inner structure. The accessory included with this card is slim in every sense of the word with just a manual, driver disk, and DVI to D-sub adapter.
Having already looked at one version of the HD 7790, let's see what PowerColor has to offer by digging deeper into the HD 7790 Turbo Duo.

Oh well i guess people are entitled to their own opinion.
If I don't have to do it, I won't. If I have to do it, I'll make it quick.
The bible clearly states you REST when you die. You rest until Jesus' return, and then he will ascend those who believe.
I honestly have no idea where people get the thought "You go to heaven when you die"
Two things:
1) "According to current medical understanding" -- as stated in the article its self, we don't know everything about what could be going on in the mind
2) It is entirely possible that he had this dream as he was waking up, or even in the process of going into the comma. Dreams happen in a much shorter time span in real life than they feel to us.
My opinion is stated.
I went to heaven once, it was nice. Can't wait to go back!
It's foolish to fear what we've yet to see and know. ~Itachi Uchiha
Alot of people have experienced the whole " heaven " experience. meaning the bright light and the stairs and angels. then they get saved. OBE ( out of body experiences ) are like mad common.
I'm on the highway to hades with my muthafukin seatbelt off. --Hiatus --
This does not prove anything. I remain an agnostic.
Just because he couldn't dream during the week of coma, doesn't mean he couldn't experience a "heaven" dream while he was waking up that seemed like it lasted a while. In fact, being told it's alright and having lights flashing above him pretty much describes his senses while moving on a gurney. He then goes to an empty void that's comforting, that sounds like the coma setting in.
However, the most compelling argument is that he claims to have experienced things without using his brain, but he can remember them with his brain. If you can go to heaven when you have a near death experience, then you wouldn't remember it on waking. Your soul may remember it next time you go to heaven, but it certainly wouldn't translate to your conscious self.
Edit: Kenshin_san, you don't have the verse where it says that handy do you? It would be interesting to read. PM me it please?
Science cannot prove anything that cannot be 'seen'. Heaven is personal experience, nobody can see what heaven is like unless you`ve been there during a coma or something like that, or near death experience.
How can science even prove anything spiritual ? It`s all about experience, all personal and only you yourself can view heaven, nobody can view what heaven is for you... we all have different perceptions of heaven.
Bye all, deleting my account soon. Just letting you all know beforehand.
It's just hallucinations people feel while their brain is being robbed of oxygen.
Read Umineko
we don't know enough on neuroscience or the brain in general to come up with a valid thesis on how it works... we do not know how a dream is formed so all we do is create hypothesis and educated guesses on the subject (and even our best educated guesses are still fairly off the mark)
i haven't had a subconscious dream (or have never remembered having one) in the last 10 and a half years of my life... every single dream i had was because i forced it into an image much like a lucid dream and i was wide awake while this occurs... no two minds are alike and that is proven by the fact there are different beliefs, ideals and personalities in our current society, all of which have had different experiences molding and shaping our understanding of subjects differently.
I'm not saying he didn't see it but since there is no way for physical proof beyond his word, i choose to not believe it until i see it and can prove it for myself without relying on another's help to do so... our mind will do anything to protect itself... even split itself into different personalities or repress all memories in circumstances of severe trauma (amnesia is one such method of repression). this also means it can theoretically create mental memories to cope with trauma as well, sort of like repressing a trauma through replacing it with fonder memories.
Happiness is heaven. Sadness is hell. That's what I believe since "the real heaven (like it's written on bible)" can't be proven~
feel free to talk to me♥ if you dont want, just force yourself to talk to me xD★
>scientifically proven facts
Pick one.

Maybe it started with a guy that accidently spilled wine into a lake, and helped someone remove dust from the eye. Now all of a sudden he can turn water into wine and heal blind people.
If I don't have to do it, I won't. If I have to do it, I'll make it quick.
At first when I read the title I thought the creator was trying to pick a fight. Lol
I've read a lot about people having practically the same experience. I doubt the credibility of their statements although I'd like to believe that heaven does exist.

According to Kim Kardashian, the world can thank her BFF Ciara for unleashing her singing abilities on us and inadvertently driving up the stock of ear plugs.
Days after releasing her first music single "Jam," which has been panned with extremely bad reviews by the way (more on this later), Kim dishes on how the song came about on Sunday's all-new episode of Kourtney and Kim Take New York. And get this, Kim, 30, had to be talked into recording the song by her pal, Ciara.
"I'm so shy," states Kim when Ciara informs her that record producer The-Dream is anxious to work with her. "I'd be so nervous to get into a studio and sing in front of other people, especially The-Dream." Ultimately, Kim decides to go ahead with recording the song.
Meanwhile, days after the debut of Kim's song, she has become the laughing stock of the world music industry as there seems to be a collective agreement that Kim's voice and music, well how do we put this delicately, kind of sucks. Below are some of the not so rave reviews for Kimmy's song –
Popdust – "The heavily flanged Kardashian sounds barely engaged with her own song."
Crushable – The single is "laughably bad and nearly unlistenable."
Neon Limelight – "What really kills the song are the horrid vocals. Kim coos through the song lifelessly singing about taking shots and dancing the night away at her favorite spot. Is this club filled with zombies? They're the only creatures she's courting with that monotonous tone."
Yahoo Music Blog – "So…is it any good? In a word, no. In two words, HECK no. More like "Turn It Down," I say. It basically makes Paris Hilton's "Stars Are Blind" warbling like something by Janis Joplin, and could probably even make Heidi Montag cringe (if Heidi was actually facially capable of cringing, that is)."
For those who want to take another gander at the song, it is below, but please don't say we didn't warn you.
The new episode of Kourtney and Kim Take New York airs Sunday at 10 p.m. (EST) on E! Kim's music video will also debut that night on the network.
UPDATE – Below is a photo of Kim from the music video.

Grizzlies, Rockets aim to improve playoff status
A pair of Southwest Division foes still jockeying for playoff positions get together Friday night, when the Memphis Grizzlies pay a visit to the Houston Rockets at the Toyota Center.
Memphis sits just a game behind Denver for the third spot in the West, while the Rockets are seventh in the standings -- one-half game behind Golden State.
The Grizzlies have won six of their last seven games and recorded a 94-75 triumph over the Charlotte Bobcats the last time out on Tuesday. Mike Conley led the way with 20 points and seven assists and Zach Randolph added a double- double with 11 points and 13 rebounds to help Memphis extend its home winning streak to 13 games.
"I'm very comfortable being one of the guys with the ball at the end of the game," said Conley, who's averaging 20.6 points and 5.8 assists in his last 13 games. "I have confidence that I'll make the right pass, make the right play or shoot the right shot."
Conley has scored 20 or more points in five straight games, a career-high.
Memphis put the game away by outscoring the Bobcats, 31-18, in the fourth quarter. The Grizzlies, who are 20-7 since the All-Star break, hope to have forward Darrell Arthur (back) and guard Jerryd Bayless (knee) against the Rockets. Both players are listed as questionable Friday.
Bayless is averaging 15.8 ppg in his last 12 games played.
The Grizzlies are 22-17 on the road and will finish the season with a winning away record for the first time in franchise history.
Houston will continue its final homestand of the regular season, a three-game residency that began with Tuesday's odd 101-98 win over the Phoenix Suns.
Rockets All-Star James Harden put up a 3-pointer at the buzzer, which Suns forward Jermaine O'Neal was called for goaltending.
"I felt the ball was outside the cylinder, so I just tried to knock it down and tried to swat it out so nobody else would try and tip it in," explained O'Neal. "I've never seen a game finish in a weirder way."
Harden scored 33 points and Francisco Garcia had 15 points for the Rockets, winners in 10 of their last 14 games and three straight at home. Jeremy Lin and Greg Smith scored 13 and 12 points, respectively. Houston's win and Utah's loss to Oklahoma City gave the Rockets a playoff berth.
"This is a stepping stone for us," said Harden, who's averaging 25.9 ppg.. "To get in the playoffs, hopefully we can learn from it."
The Rockets will also host Sacramento on the homestand and are 28-11 in Space City this season. They have lost two of the first three encounters with Memphis this season, but own an 11-5 mark in the last 16 meetings between the Southwest foes.
Memphis has lost 13 straight, 16 of 18 and 18 of its last 21 at Houston.

Opinion: Our government has to reassess policies that allow for terror attacks to occur
EDITOR'S NOTE: Boris Epshteyn formerly served as a Senior Advisor to the Trump Campaign and served in the White House as Special Assistant to The President and Assistant Communications Director for Surrogate Operations.
WASHINGTON (Sinclair Broadcast Group) - I have been speaking with you for less than six months. In just that short time, we have had to discuss way too many national tragedies. The shooting at a congressional baseball game in Virginia, the massacre in Las Vegas and now the terror attack in New York City.
In New York, the suspected terrorist mowed down people who were just enjoying a late fall day in the Big Apple.
I know exactly where that path is, I have been on it with my friends, my wife and my little boy.
As soon as the details came out I started thinking about what I would do if a truck driven by a mad man came hurling at me and my loved ones. Realistically, I know I would be powerless.
The power lies with our government.
It's time that elected officials take a look at the policies and procedures that allow terrible events like this to occur time and again. Laws on immigration, such as the Diversity Visa Lottery Program, assault weapons and social media surveillance have to be re-examined.
There are a number of factors that lead up to yesterday's attack. It is vital for our government to find those gaps and make improvement across the board to make sure Americans are as safe as possible.
Here is my bottom line: please stay safe and vigilant wherever you are, home and abroad. Law enforcement should learn as much as they can from the suspect who they have in custody in New York. Our government has to do all in its power to try and keep these events from being all too common.

Stronger and straighter stems and a blast of color make the Everlasting™ Revolution Hydrangea a standout in the garden.
This Dutch series was originally bred for the cut-flower market, and the sturdy stems ensure that these hydrangeas won't twist or droop. Everlasting™ Revolution blooms in every hydrangea color imaginable, from maroon to pink to deep blue, all with green highlights. The large flowers appear in late spring and again in early fall amid toothy, medium-green leaves.
The Everlastin™ Revolution Hydrangea is hardy in zones 5 to 9. It needs full sun in the northern zones, but tolerates partial shade in the south. It tolerates even clay or poor soils as long as it is well drained but not dry.
|Hydrangeas can live for many years without ever needing to be pruned, but if your shrubs grow out of bounds or lose flowering vigor, then there are some essential pruning guidelines you must follow to ensure bountiful blooms the next year!
Hydrangea macrophylla and H. quercifolia These generally bloom on old wood and require little pruning. Prune spent blooms immediately after flowering (midsummer), or remove only dead, damaged or unsightly wood.
|Hydrangea macrophylla (Bigleaf, Mophead, or Lacecap Hydrangeas)
These Hydrangeas begin blooming in early to midsummer and can continue until summer's end, so they set their bloom buds during late summer or early fall. When pruning mopheads, you have two options, and will probably end up doing a combination of both:
|Exception: If you have a reblooming variety such as Penny Mac that flowers on new wood as well as old wood, you'll want to prune a little every year just to keep the new wood coming.
|Hydrangea quercifolia (Oakleaf Hydrangea)
You can get away without pruning Oakleaf Hydrageas at all, but if you want to keep them well-shaped, cut dead stems back at the base in late winter or early spring.
|Hydrangea arborescens and H. paniculata
These shrubs bloom on new wood and actually produce larger blooms if cut back to the ground in late winter.
|Hydrangea arborescens (Smooth Hydrangea)
This is one of the easiest Hydrangeas to prune. Because it blooms only on new wood, you can just cut it back to the ground in late winter, before any new buds appear. If you experience some flopping of flowering branches, then leave a framework of old growth to help support the branches by only cutting stems back to 2 feet from the ground.
|Hydrangea paniculata (Pee Gee or Panicle Hydrangeas)
Prune this Hydrangea in late winter to keep the plants from becoming overgrown and encourage more new growth, more flower buds, and larger blooms. You can remove dead flowers, as soon as they become unattractive and clean up the overall shape of the plant.
|Hydrangea petiolaris
|Hydrangea petiolaris (Climbing Hydrangea)
Climbing Hydrangea requires little to no pruning, but if you need to trim it to keep it in bounds, you should prune it just after flowering. Cut back last year's flower shoots to 1 to 2 inches and pruning out shoots that fail to cling or have pulled away from their support.
|Remember, Hydrangeas are shade tolerant, but they do require adequate sunlight and irrigation to bloom properly. In northern climates and coastal areas, Hydrangeas will grow beautifully in full sun, but in warmer southern areas, a location in part shade where the shrub receives full to partial morning sun with protection from harsh afternoon sun is ideal. Placed in the right location, given ample moisture, and pruned using the guidelines above, your Hydrangeas will be an abundant source of gorgeous blooms long into the future.
To download this How-To for yourself, with complete information, please follow this link. Because the file is in PDF format, you will require the Adobe Reader to be able to view it. We hope that you will enjoy this guide and refer to it for years to come.
Space according to ultimate size. Choose a good garden soil, high in organic matter that will help keep ample moisture available to the roots. The location should be sunny or partly shaded, the latter being preferable in dry areas.
If the pH of your soil is too high (alkaline), it can be reduced (made more acidic) by the addition of one tablespoon or more of Aluminum Sulfate per plant – this will make your flowers a deeper blue.
An annual mulch of compost is beneficial. In very cold or exposed locations, "hill" up the soil and mulch the base of the plant with pine needles or leaves. Most species require little pruning except the removal of dead flower heads after blooming or in early spring.
For H. arborescens, prune the previous year's flowering wood to the ground in early spring. For H. macrophylla (H. hortensis) and H. serrata, thin out two- or threeyear- old flowering shoots at ground level to promote vigorous new growth. H.petiolaris should be pruned only for aesthetics.

Addressing epidermal barrier function in canine atopic dermatitis
Classically, atopic dermatitis is thought to be caused by a genetic defect in the immune system, leading to a hypersensitivity to normal environmental allergens. Newer theories propose that genetic defects in skin lipids and proteins create a barrier defect that lets allergens into the body, stimulating an immune response.1 The study of skin barrier function in dogs is the subject of a lot of research, and measuring transepidermal water loss is commonly used to estimate barrier function. New topical treatments geared toward improving the skin barrier are emerging and may be useful additions to the classic atopic dermatitis treatment protocol.
TRANSEPIDERMAL WATER LOSSTo understand skin barrier defect research, a brief review of transepidermal water loss is necessary. A machine called an evaporimeter measures the amount of water evaporating from the skin. The evaporimeter can have an open or closed chamber, and a debate exists about which type is superior.2 Transepidermal water loss measurement is noninvasive and has been shown to be a good estimate of barrier function in dogs and people.
All animals lose a small amount of water through the skin, called perspiratio insensibilis.3 But atopic dogs lose higher amounts of water than normal dogs do.4,5 It is thought that the higher water loss dries out and irritates the skin, but more important, it signifies that the skin barrier is not working properly. If water is leaking out, allergens may be penetrating the barrier.
Most canine epithelial barrier research can be divided into two categories: research to determine the chemical content of skin and research with electron microscopy to determine the physical architecture of skin. Canine skin can be described as bricks and mortar, with epithelial cells making up the bricks and extracellular lipids and proteins making up the mortar.
The stratum granulosum of the epithelium produces lamellar bodies, which contain necessary lipids and enzymes needed for differentiation and desquamation of epithelial cells.1 The lamellar bodies are extruded into the extracellular space and form organized stacks called lamellae, which help prevent water loss and allergen penetration. Ceramides are a type of lipid that makes up a large portion of the lamellae. Dogs with atopic dermatitis have a skin deficiency of ceramides,5,6 and their lamellae are arranged in a disorderly manner.1

Mysterious Black Hole That Is HP's Repair Division Swallows Yet Another Laptop
We're starting to suspect that HP's repair department consists of a giant warehouse inside of which is a nothing but a black hole that eats laptops. Stephen Hawking is their receptionist, and he makes sure the techs don't accidentally cross the event horizon when they're chucking your computer into oblivion.
Reader Katy writes:
I purchased an HP Pavilion dv2014 notebook computer in August of 2007. I was about to leave my home of Auburn, WA to work as a volunteer for the Lutheran Volunteer Corps in Baltimore, MD. I felt I couldn't justify spending the 13,000 dollars on a new MacBook, so went for the HP that was 700 dollars on sale, before tax. What a deal!
Well, about a month into my volunteering adventure the "m" key fell off my keyboard. NEVER had I realized that I used the "m" key so much before this happened.
Still, I had no car, and getting to a Best Buy on the Inner Harbor involved taking my laptop with me on the bus, for a long ride, and then walking to get to the store. I felt I could live without the piece of plastic. I continued to use my computer and noticed it got ridiculously hot when it was on for any extended period of time. Since I live with other volunteers in a provided house we don't have things like desks, or really any personal space. So most of the time I used my computer it was to watch movies or use the internet while sitting on my bed. My lap started to get very uncomfortable with the heat. However, I didn't want to make a big deal because it was so difficult to take care of.
Then, in March I came home for Easter to visit my family and my computer wouldn't turn on. My Step-father is a systems administrator and nerd extraordinaire so he decided to take a look at it, but didn't want to destroy the still valid warranty. When I got back to Maryland I called HP. They told me it was the hard drive and sent me a box to ship it to them. I was told it was a very easy fix and would be sent back in 2 days. I DID get my computer back, but they had only fixed the keyboard, the computer still wouldn't start.
I immediately called HP back, was told it was possibly the motherboard and sent yet another box. That was on April 4th. HP has had my computer since April 9th and I have yet to get it back. This is due to a part being on backorder, although I have been told twice that the part was there and the work was done, yet my computer still has yet to be sent to me. The ship date continually gets pushed back, the most recent being May 15th. I know I won't get it on May 15th because it would have to be shipped today, and I spent a large amount of my day (of which I am on vacation) on the phone with HP.
I have sent multiple polite, yet angry emails about the situation and have been given the number to the executive complaint line. I was even given a case manager who gave me his name and his number and promised to keep me updated and give me a fantastic new warranty for free. I attempted to contact him today and was disconnected 3 times while on hold, and then finally told that someone would "message" him and he would call me back. This was early in the day today. In my recent email I have asked/demanded for a refund. I doubt I will get one, but a girl can always wish. It has gotten to the point that I just want to cut my losses and by a freaking Mac. I never had any problems with their customer service or with my iBook in general before it died a slow natural death. My sister suggested that I contact you and after reading your site I agree that this is a matter that needs to be known.
Thank you for your work in keeping the public informed!
Well, HP. We think it might be time to admit that your current strategy isn't working. Can you shake loose another laptop for us?

WiFi Issue On AT&T 9700 and Starbuck Hot Spots
Please Login to Remove!
Very Interesting Situation of Which AT&T has been absolutely no help at all, including their WiFi support team, that is trying to emulate Apples Chat Support System, its absolutely horrible
Carrier AT&T OS 220.127.116.115
I have a New Bold 9700, OS 126.96.36.1995, I have Unlimited Everything. The other day, I went into a Known Starbucks that is a Authorized AT&T WiFi site.
First thing I noticed was there was a Red Star in the WiFi Icon upper right Screen under antenna, and a Red Star on the WiFi set-up Icon.
I clicked on the Icon, got the AT&T Wifi Hot Spot Log In Button I clicked it, and it opened a AT&T WiFi window with 4 option Buttons in the Traditional AT&T Colors, top 2 buttons state Member ID, Credit Card #, ect. It like a vicious circle, keep going and you wind up in the same lousy Predicament- The AT&T Window with the 4 Tabs.
I did a Manual Scan for networks, it found the Wifi Hot Spot Login, but again, back to the stupid AT&T Window, BTW the manual scan shows full signal strength, and - Connected.
In the Top Mid portion of the Screen, it says at&t wifi, the red Icon remains both in the Wifi Icon upper right under antenna, and start up icon for WiFi.
Starbucks was absolutely no help at all, the only thing they wanted to do is charge me for 2 hours of wifi and give me a user name. AT&T was Argumentative, an Advanced person stated "coldly" Wifi isn't for free on AT&T, "Nothing is for free-"
Another person from AT&T stated I had to go to a special window (That doesn't exist) on AT&T.Com/Wifi and register my phone at which time the service would issue a password for me to use at all At&T Hot spots- No Such Beast, we spent hours looking for the window to register at.
I decided to buy a Vanilla Latte, took a sip, it was lousy, got disgusted and turned the power off on my 9700. They made a new drink, I went back to the place I was sitting at and turned the Phone back on.
Guess What-? No More red Stars, The WiFi was enabled, showing at the Top of the Screen, the wifi Icon was lite up and I went into the Wifi Folders of setup and it showed the AT&T HOt Spot Active and enabled.
Any one got some bright ideas?
All AT&T Customers on a Data Plan of $ 30.00 or more are entitled to FREE AT&T Hot Spot WiFi at Starbucks and other Authorized AT&T Hot Spots. AT&T claims I should be able to walk into a Starbucks and the system will recognize me as a AT&T Customer and allow me unlimited use of WiFi-
Obviously its not working that way. BTW I have also done several Battery Pulls to no avail-

I liked the idea of this and it was quite timely for me as I was just about to apply this effect within my current project.
However as Simon stated playing around with the margin, padding and height values and getting it to work cross-browser was quite hit and miss.
So I ended up playing around a bit more, with absolute positioning, text-indent and an extra span I have a solution which, I think, is easier to implement.
I've explained my solution on my site and added a demo of the final result.
This works on Firefox 1.5, IE 5, 5.5, 6, NS 7.1 and Opera 8.5 on Windows. I haven't had chance to test on a Mac yet.

posted by Jeremy Wells on Tue 8th Feb 2005 08:05 UTC
For over six years I have been hunting for a Linux distro that would allow me to replace my Windows installation. I've tried many versions of RedHat and Mandrake, and more recently, Gnoppix, Kanotix, Ubuntu, Fedora, and Knoppix. In my evaluations, I would start with high hopes that the latest and greatest distro would install smoothly, support my hardware, and create a genuinely usable system, but none of them really worked--until now. I recently came across the first distro that satisfied all my requirements: Ubuntu.
Ubuntu is a recent distribution that is based on Debian unstable. From reading many online posts, it appears that a large number of Debian developers are Ubuntu users. From most perspectives, Ubuntu is Debian, but with added improvements and more testing.Selection Criteria My "perfect" Linux distribution would be completely open source, professional in appearance, have good laptop support, and be simple and clean. For example, Xandros, Linspire, and Lycoris appear to provide a good user experience, decent hardware compatibility, and technical support, but rely on proprietary software to achieve their goals. Many distros feature cute cartoons and inspired imagery, but while a cute cartoon image of a shark is fine for friends and family, it sends the wrong message in a professional crowd (I won't even get into the distros that prominently feature cannabus sativa). Unfortunately, laptop support is fatally flawed in the current 2.6 kernel because of a buggy ACPI implementation, but few distributions seem to take the time to get the available working drivers/modules/daemons to work correctly (such as APM). More often than not, the end user is left to configure many laptop support options. Lastly, Gnome's approach to the desktop is better in my opinion because it emphasizes usability and simplification (a la the Mac) rather than the cluttered, sickeningly sweet, drippy, transparent eye Kandy of KDE. Hardware I installed Ubuntu 4.10 - Warty on an IBM Thinkpad T21 with 384 megs of RAM and a NEC 6500A DVD-writer that I recently installed in place of the stock DVD-ROM. The graphics controller is a S3 Savage/IX-MV which is known to have bugs. Windows 2000 and XP runs fine on this laptop with complete and working support for ACPI. The processor is an 800 Mhz mobile Pentium III. The laptop also has a Winmodem, but since I never use it, it didn't bother me that it would be rather unlikely that Ubuntu would support it without additional configuration. ACPI support in the current 2.6 kernel does not work on the T21 (or many other laptops for that matter). While sleep (and possibly suspend) do work, the integrated 3Com 3c556B Ethernet controller does not work under ACPI. For the most part, the laptop will work with APM under the 2.6 kernel, however. Installation Like many distributions, installation went smoothly. Note that because of the aforementioned ACPI bug, Ubuntu must be booted with "linux acpi=off" at the boot command line. Ubuntu correctly detected all of the T21's hardware (except possibly for the Winmodem). Amazingly, my Epson 610 scanner and Olympus C3000z digital camera were also detected and worked correctly and--most importantly--worked without having to be root (unlike some distributions). My new NEC DVD-writer also worked correctly. Tweaking Unfortunately, tweaking was necessary before all was well on the laptop. I do not fault Ubuntu as most other distributions required the same changes. APM support had to be enabled by adding "apm" at the end of the /etc/modules file. In order to squelch the S3 Savage IX bug, the option "ShadowStatus" needed to be added to the "Device" section in the /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file (failure to do so will result in random freezes when scrolling). I also needed to add the option "HWCursor" followed by "false" to the X11 configuration file in order to stop the "X" cursor that appears upon loading Gnome from remaining on the screen as a visual artifact. Apparently, the IPv6 code in the 2.6 kernel is also somewhat buggy. There were long delays in name resolution when using Firefox. In order to fix this, I had to disable IPv6 support in the /etc/modprobe.conf file by adding the line "alias ipv6 off" followed by another line, "alias net-pf-10 off".

Update: The Phillies have called up lefthander Jeremy Horst and designated Chad Qualls for assignment. Qualls was roughed up in Wednesday's 11-7 loss to the Pirates, allowing three runs on three hits in one inning of work.
Overall, Qualls was 1-1 with a 4.60 ERA in 35 appearances this year. Over the last 29 games, he posted a 5.68 ERA, and opponents hit .333 against him.
Horst has gone 2-1 with two saves and a 2.11 ERA in 26 games with the IronPigs this season. Since April 28, Horst has posted a 1.61 ERA with 22 strikeouts in 27.1 innings for Lehigh Valley. The 26-year-old made 12 relief appearances with the Cincinnati Reds last season, posting a 2.93 ERA in 15.1 innings.
He will wear No. 47 for the Phillies.
From earlier:
The bullpen pitcher du jour is Brian Sanches.
The Phillies called up the righthander from triple-A Lehigh Valley Thursday morning in time for their afternoon series finale with the Pittsburgh Pirates. Sanches, 33, replaced Joe Savery, who was optioned to the Iron Pigs after pitching 2 2/3 innings during Wednesday night's 11-7 loss that featured six Phillies relievers.
This will be Sanches' second stint with the big-league club this season. He appeared in three games in early May and allowed five earned runs on nine hits in four innings.
Given the fact that everyone except closer Jonathan Papelpon pitched out of the bullpen Wednesday night, there's a decent chance Sanches will make an appearance against the Pirates.
Sanches was 3-1 with a 2.48 ERA in 21 appearances at Lehigh Valley and had walked only five batters in 32 2/3 innings. He was 2-1 with a 1.15 ERA in his last 10 appearances for the Iron Pigs.

Frozen Foods Hold Greater Potential
Americans love frozen dinners and entrees for their convenience, are impressed by the recent innovations in ease of preparation and are motivated to purchase new frozen products that look appealing in the store. With variety and healthier alternatives, this category holds greater potential.
By Diane Toops, News & Trends Editor
Americans love frozen dinners and entrees for their convenience, are impressed by the recent innovations in ease of preparation and are motivated to purchase new frozen products that look appealing in the store. That's according to a Harris Interactive online survey of 1,718 adults, taken on behalf of the American Frozen Food Institute (AFFI), McClean, Va. In fact, each American chills out with six frozen meals per month.
|What do consumers look for when purchasing frozen foods for themselves or their family? A few look for new products (8 percent), 23 percent seek enhancements to existing products and 68 percent think both attributes are equally important. Exactly half choose a new product because it looks appealing at the store, according to survey by American Frozen Food Institute (AFFI). Asked about the most important frozen food innovations over the part 10 years, 27 percent declare it is ease of preparation, 26 percent vote for variety, 22 percent choose taste, 18 percent believe it's product performance and quality after preparation and for 7 percent it's nutrition.
Based on a technology developed by Clarence Birdseye, the first TV dinner debuted under the Swanson's brand in 1953 as an shortcut for busy wives, who had begun flocking to jobs in increasing numbers. The dinner of turkey, corn bread dressing and gravy, buttered peas and sweet potatoes was a bargain at 98 cents and a joy to feast on it while watching "I Love Lucy" on a spanking new Philco television. Comforting new varieties, including fried chicken and Salisbury steak, were added soon. Granted, the food tasted and looked somewhat mysterious under that aluminum foil. But the idea that you could combine an entrée, vegetable and starch in the same, shiny three-part container, put it in the oven, cook it in a few minutes and serve it with no dishes to wash was a great convenience.
Convenience is still the No. 1 reason behind frozen dinners, which are ready (now in the microwave) in less than five minutes, according to AFFI. And, more than ever, they're a quality choice, due to the combination of great taste (thanks to corporate chefs and specialized R&D teams), variety (everything from Southern to Malaysian), new technology and packaging that locks in flavor and freshness — plus healthier formulations, such as low-fat, low-calorie, vegetarian, low-carb and lower sodium.
In 2005, frozen foods reached $28 billion in sales, according to Packaged Facts, the publishing division of MarketResearch.com, Rockville, Md. (www.packagedfacts.com). Growth of 2.8 percent annually over the next few years — reaching $32 billion by 2010 — is predicted. Much of this growth will come from a renewed emphasis on premium fare with homemade freshness, natural/organic ingredients and "better-for-you" entrees catering to the needs of time-crunched families.
As the definition of "family" continues to evolve, so do the choices of innovative varieties in frozen food packaging. "Lifestyle marketing" has taken the industry by storm. Meeting the frozen food needs of empty nesters, DINKS (double income, no kids) and marrieds without children at home — today's dominant household unit -- has become crucial to success.
New ethnic flavors accounts for most of the dollar growth in frozen foods.
Good-for-you meals for two are springing up in frozen food cases sporting greater varieties of organic-based and ethnic cuisines. Resealable packaging, individual portion sizes, multi-serve and portion-controlled packaging also have been introduced to meet the specific lifestyle needs of on-the-go Americans.
"Consumers are being bombarded with fresh food choices in retail, which is a huge challenge to frozen foods," says Don Montuori, publisher of Packaged Facts. "People want frozen foods to be quick, easy, and taste like restaurant quality as they seek to upgrade their home meals with world flavors, high nutrition and gourmet fare."

text: NEWPORT - Wind. Wind. Wind. If there's one issue that dominated the news and the minds of people in the area, it was industrial wind towers. From the battle on the hillsides of Derby Line to the protests and sign waving on the Lowell Mountain ridgeline, wind was the hot issue of the year, and may be for years to come.Canada got into the act in Derby Line when Stanstead Mayor Philippe Dutil decided enough was enough and rallied forces against a wind project designed for two farms on the U.S. side of the international border. Eventually, opponents won as the clock ran out for a Burlington developer on that project.Lowell was another matter. Green Mountain Power, which gave birth to the project, had done its homework and pushed forward despite tremendous pressure from opponents. Ground was broken (and in many places blown to smithereens), huge turbines were hauled from the rail yard of Island Pond (although one got dumped on Interstate 91), and the towers went up and are now functional.Everything was completed just in time for NVDA, the Vermont Legislature, and Vermont Electric-Cooperative to open discussions on an industrial wind moratorium.In the meantime, the Lowell Six (a group spearheaded by Dr. Ron Holland) were arrested and charged with trespassing for trying to block the access to Lowell Mountain. They were eventually found guilty despite a dispute over ownership of the land on which they were standing.***In keeping with the theme of power and energy, GazMetro got permission from the Public Service Board (now seen as the great enemy of the people) to purchase CVPS, the state's largest utility. GazMetro already owns Green Mountain Power and the acquisition required certain concessions, most notably the state had to forego the $21 million owed by CVPS to its rate-payers as the result of an agreement that kept it out of bankruptcy in years past. Gov. Peter Shumlin, after hemming and hawing a bit, decided to support the sale. Rate-payers, and in particular the AARP, were not happy.***Not to be outdone, Chris Braithwaite, of the Barton Chronicle, was arrested and charged with trespassing while covering the protesters on Lowell Mountain as a journalist. Some law enforcement officials said Braithwaite was rude and directly disobeyed orders to leave the area. Braithwaite argued Constitutional rights and Freedom of the Press. As the case approached trial, defense attorney Phil White subpoenaed emails from Green Mountain Power that indicated, at best, that GMP had implicitly allowed Braithwaite to be on the mountain by establishing, as a matter of policy, that he was not to be arrested. What they actually meant by that and whether it made any difference with regards to the case was left unanswered when the prosecuting attorney dropped the charge. Shortly thereafter, upon a motion from defense, the court dismissed the case with prejudice, meaning the state could not revisit the issue down the road. Braithwaite's reaction? Sue GMP for withholding evidence that might have lead to an earlier dismissal and saved him over $20K in attorney's fees.***Probably the next biggest story, or possibly a tie for first place, was the Jay Peak Resort Expansion and Renaissance Project. It should be noted that the name "Renaissance Project" was created by the press as the result of a plan by Jay Peak to tear down a decrepit Newport City block and build what was dubbed the Renaissance Block in its place.Jay Peak, under the guidance of Bill Stenger, had been expanding for quite a while with new condos, an 18-hole golf course, a large water park, a full-sized ice rink, new hotels and.... Am I missing anything? Oh, yes, plans to develop a medical clinic on the mountain. Now developers want to bring that money into Newport by reconstructing a major part of downtown, opening at least three new companies (a German window manufacturer, a biotech company from South Korean and an airplane parts company at the airport), constructing a hotel and conference center on the site of the Waterfront Plaza, and expanding the airport in Coventry. That's a lot of money and a lot of work - for a lot of people. The next step in this grand scheme is to develop the workforce necessary to accomplish these goals.Well, it's going to be a long few years, so let's see how it all goes.***Dr. Leslie Lockridge got fired by North Country Hospital, but that didn't stop the oncologist from drumming up a massive amount of support, which resulted in a public hearing on the matter. Of course, the hospital board didn't change its mind about the firing, but the event gave Dr. Lockridge more than 15 minutes of fame, enough to raise money and open his own clinic.***Starr Trucking of North Troy closed its doors. After rumors of its demise went viral in the community, the family owned business sold out and officially announced its closure.***The Derby Selectboard saw its share of rife with battles between a number of its members, most notably chairman Brian Smith and board member Karen Jenne. Jenne, who also serves as Derby Line Village Clerk, came under fire for allegedly sneaking around the Derby Town Clerk's offices after hours. Forget that she has a right to be there, or that she had a key, or that Smith was holding "private" and unannounced meetings in the building after hours, somehow this made Jenne a target for Smith and other members of the board.***And both Derby Village Boards were busy, especially the zoning board. A developer named Bill Simendinger did his best to tear down some property he owns on the international border and put up mini-mart and gas station. That news met with a huge amount of resistance and, in the end, Simendinger met with his own personal woes and disappeared from sight, at least for a while.***The Derby Town Meeting had its own strife when assistant town clerk Maryann Tetreault managed to beat town clerk Nicole Daigle for the position of delinquent tax collector. That job had brought in significant extra money to Daigle and tensions in the office increased every day after that until Tetreault had her hours cut and Daigle left for another job. By then, both ladies were worn thin from the battle, much of which wasn't about them at all but about the internal struggles of the Derby Board.***After a bumpy and rather strange start, Faye Morin took over as Derby Town Clerk following a hastily called election in which she was the only person to run. Faye had been hand-picked by outgoing clerk Nicole Daigle and some people in the community were unhappy with how that had happened. Regardless, Morin was deemed the best person for the job and will hold it at least until the next March Town Meeting.***As if all the power issues and protests weren't enough, a march was held in opposition to a large oil company (ExxonMobil) reversing the flow in huge pipes (The Portland-Montreal Pipeline) that run through the heart of the Northeast Kingdom, from Troy to Victory and beyond, in order to send tar sands oil to ports in Maine. Tar sands oil is notoriously corrosive and a spill in Kalamazoo, Michigan, caused disastrous environmental damage. The pipes would have to be replaced and heated. Tar sands oil is also infamous because of the way it is collected. Miles and miles of Alberta forests have been decimated in order to strip the oil from the ground. The effect of this "mining" is chilling. The nature of tar sands, and Americans revulsion of it, lead to the demise of the Keystone Pipeline project opposed, at least for now, by Pres. Obama.***And while we're on the topic of protesters, members of the NEK99%, a local arm of the Occupy movement, were charged with "disorderly conduct" for writing on the sidewalks of Newport City with chalk. In a hearing held before a Lamoille County side judge, the three were ordered to pay $50 fines. No one seemed to object to what they were writing, only that it was done in chalk and "upset business owners." The group argued they had a write to use the sidewalks to express their ideas, especially since the city (or some members thereof) had taken to tearing down a community newsletter, calling it litter. The city, however, sanctioned putting up posters and other information that supported commercial projects downtown. The phrase that seems to be coming up a lot is, "Local merchants don't want it." Members of the NEK99% and their supporters want the city to know that the merchants aren't the only game in town, that people live here, too.They plan to appeal the fines.***In local elections, long-time state senator Vince Illuzzi gave up his seat to run a failed attempt for state auditor. The race for his seat got pretty hot, but in the end, Democrats John Rodgers and Bobby Starr went to Montpelier. The races were tight and more than one race ended with a recount.***Morgan residents said a final goodbye to their school, which closed. The students were reassigned to other schools, many coming to Derby.***It was a year for getting sick. An epidemic of Whooping Cough is still making its way around the state and people died from EEE and West Nile Virus.***The first ever International Film Festival was held at the Haskell Opera House, and while we're there, both the opera house and it's lower-level library were the sites of criminal activity, from a burglary upstairs to a possible illegal guns deal across the border downstairs. Not bad for an otherwise haunted building.***Dog lovers in the Northeast Kingdom got their wish and won a tidy sum of money to establish a dog park in Derby, which officially opened.

Twins Use Unearned Run To Beat Orioles 6-5
BALTIMORE (AP) — In the first game of the season in which Chris Davis failed to hit a home run, he still managed to make a play that influenced the final outcome.
Unfortunately for Davis and the Baltimore Orioles, his error led to the pivotal run in the Minnesota Twins' 6-5 victory Saturday night.
Justin Morneau singled in the tiebreaking run with two outs in the ninth inning after Davis botched a grounder, and the Twins got a home run from Chris Parmalee in their first win in Baltimore since April 21, 2011.
"Wins are good anywhere," manager Ron Gardenhire said. "This is a tough league over here. This whole division is tough, and there are a lot of good baseball teams in it. You can't make too many mistakes against these people."
Although Davis picked up his 17th RBI, he failed to become the first player in major league history to homer in the first five games of the season.
"I wasn't actually thinking I need to hit a homer," he said. "My mindset was more, drive in runs. Homers come and go, they come in bunches."
His error was the first of the season, and it couldn't have come at a worse time.
With the score tied at 5, Baltimore turned to closer Jim Johnson (0-1) in the ninth. Davis let a one-out groundball by Aaron Hicks roll through his legs, and after a two-out walk to Josh Willingham, Morneau singled up the middle.
"My glove was down, my head was down the ball just went right through my legs," Davis said. "Just one of those things."
Of course, if Morneau didn't become the first Twins player to get three hits in a game this season, the error wouldn't have mattered.
"I don't know if he was trying to come in there or not. It was a pretty good pitch to hit — right over the plate," Morneau said. "I tried to keep it simple and get a good swing on it and take my chances. That was an at-bat where I was just trying not to do too much."
It was Johnson's first loss since last July 27.
Josh Roenicke (1-0) pitched three innings of one-hit relief and Glen Perkins got three straight outs for his first save.
Orioles starter Chris Tillman allowed five runs, seven hits and four walks in 3 2-3 rocky innings. Activated off the disabled list before the game after being sidelined with an abdominal strain, Tillman needed 93 pitches to get 11 outs.
Tillman was replaced by T.J. McFarland, a Rule 5 signee making his major league debut. The 23-year-old lefty allowed one hit and struck out five over 3 1-3 innings.
Twins starter Vance Worley gave up four earned runs and 10 hits in five innings. It was the first time in eight career starts in April that he failed to go at least six innings.
The Orioles scored two first-inning runs with help from Minnesota's defense. After Manny Machado singled with one out, Nick Markakis hit a sinking liner to left that eluded a diving Willingham, who tried to locate the loose ball as Markakis reached second base.
Adam Jones then hit a swinging bunt that scored Machado, and Markakis came home after Worley's late, off-target throw to first base.
"That's one run they wouldn't have had if I just ate it," Worley said.
Minnesota closed to 2-1 in the second on a sacrifice fly by Brian Dozier, but Hicks struck out with the bases loaded and two outs.
The Twins took the lead with a four-run third. Ryan Doumit singled in a run and Trevor Plouffe hit a sacrifice fly before Parmalee drove a 3-0 pitch over the right-field wall.
Davis singled in a run in the bottom half, and Baltimore tied it at 5 in the fifth with four straight singles, the last by Jones to drive in two runs.

And there it goes my last transfer, in the hopes of balancing things
a bit in case of a Montreal debacle. Had just two players from MON,
one from Dallas, and one from RBNY; but in weeks like this it is easy
to end with negative points with just two players from the same
team, if they have a bad week.

That took way too long Luis, I burned my last transfer months
ago and I'm on the verge of winning this thing. Anyway, need
some levity after a off-year for my team but with Sackewitz
gone there is optimism for the future in philly. Sapong has
done well and Aristeguieta still has promise but we need to
spend the cash for a dominant striker if we are going to have a
chance to win the MLS cup. In terms of open cup, third time
will be the charm for us next year.

You are correct Luis, per usual. Thus I am going

Decided to start a petition to get Alessando Del Piero on the

of free cheesesteaks for life is too tempting an offer to resist.
And a couple million bucks a year will sweeten the deal.

Well, Norm, that is why you and me are going to end #1 and #2
overall: we are not afraid of change and transfers. I do not know
you, but I am really enjoying watching how snug and confident
Todd and the rest of the people currently at the top are, not
realizing that they are going to lose everything in the next three
weeks (uh, that is our other virtue: faith).
I do not know about Del Piero. I think you should get Michu instead.
Way cheaper, younger and at a crossroads in his career. What you
guys need is a killer who can also help the midfield, and he fits the
ticket perfectly (although, if you want my opinion, he will end going
back to Oviedo; specially as Mata and Cazorla have also stated that
they want to go back to the club soon, and maybe play alongside
him and Adri�n L�pez)

Two news items from Rotowire:

Ambroise Oyongo D Montreal Impact
Oyongo will be available for Wednesday's match
against the Red Bulls before joining the
Cameroon national team for international
matches, MLSSoccer.com reports.
Fantasy Analysis
The Impact are getting hit hard by the
international break, as eight players will be
away for this weekend's match against Colorado.
Fantasy owners will get Oyongo for one, before
he takes off and returns Oct. 17 against New
+ Watchlist
Ignacio Piatti M Montreal Impact
Piatti returned to training Monday but remains
questionable for Wednesday's game against the
Red Bulls, MLSSoccer.com reports.
Fantasy Analysis
Piatti has missed time recently due to a family
matter, but his return to the club is a big
boost as they continue to fight for a playoff
spot. With a number of players out due to
international duty, the offensive load on
Piatti's shoulders will be even bigger.

With 2013 only days away, area residents are preparing to celebrate the end of 2012 and the dawn of a new year.
With 2013 only days away, area residents are preparing to celebrate the end of 2012 and the dawn of a new year.
Area law enforcement officials say it is important to remember a few safety tips when partaking in the New Year's Eve festivities.
"I think the biggest thing is to pre-plan," said Neosho Police Chief Dave McCracken. "Have a designated driver or some means of transportation."
McCracken said it is also important those who aren't celebrating, but who are traveling the roadways on New Year's Eve, be on the lookout for cars driving dangerously.
"For other drivers on the road, it's important to be watchful and report erratic driving," McCracken said.
He said in the past, the Neosho Police Department has had extra officers patrolling the streets on New Year's Eve and likely will again this year.
He said the department will also take some extra measures to be seen that night.
Chris Jennings, chief deputy with the Newton County Sheriff's Department, said sheriff's deputies would also be out in larger numbers on Dec. 31, mostly because of the large crowds that are expected to be out and about that night.
He said the department likely will not set up checkpoints, but will instead have what he called wolfpacks, where multiple units concentrate on certain areas.
He said the best advice for New Year's Eve partygoers is also the most obvious.
"The best tip is the designated driver, without a doubt," Jennings said. "Be aware of your situation because there will be a lot of people out."
He said it's also important to keep in mind that the evening's festivities attract some people who don't go out as often, which can sometimes lead to problems.
"There will be a lot of people drinking that don't normally," Jennings said, noting that fights tend to escalate more easily in those types of situations. "Know your surroundings and be careful."
Both Jennings and McCracken said they had seen a slightly higher number of impaired drivers on New Year's Eves of the past, though Jennings said that number has seemed to decrease a bit.
"I think a lot more people take advantage of designated drivers," he said.
Regardless, both officials say the night comes with increased risks, and area residents should use caution.
"Everybody should have a good time, but be mindful of everybody else's safety as well as their own," McCracken said. "Everybody needs to look out for somebody else."

Is that a true story??!! (Not the Perry Gunnite script, but the HB one.)
looks like something that lynne naylor would make speak of which what shes doing now these days?
I like how the pitch has to make underlined references to things that already exist and are popular. Thats what you gotta do in the film industry.
Peter Quarry. Canned fire. Great stuff! Thanks for posting it.
Too bad it had a sad ending, but twas a fun two weeks.
it could have been a great show! I like the idea and the designs!
These are really fantastic and so are all your old official HB pitches. I wish I could get your official Yogi and Jetsons cartoons on dvd in fun 60s HB packaging.

The Delaware River Joint Toll Bridge Commission named Joseph J. Resta of Langhorne its new executive director Thursday.
The six-month search brings Resta, 52, into the position that will pay him $165,000 per year. He starts in mid-February, according to the commission.
He brings more than 30 years of public and private experience in capital project management, strategic planning, governmental administration, and operations leadership. He most recently served as project executive for the Pennsylvania Convention Center Expansion Project in Philadelphia. It was the largest public works project ever undertaken by the state.
Resta was one of 40 individuals who applied for the position after the Commission launched a national search last summer. A selection committee initially narrowed the field of job candidates to six and then to two.
As executive director, Resta will have administrative charge of all commission activities. He serves directly under the agency's 10-member Board of Commissioners — five each from New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The agency owns and operates 20 bridges, seven of which are toll crossings, between the states.
Included in those bridges are the Delaware Water Gap Toll Bridge, the Milford-Montague Toll Bridge in Pike County and the Portland-Columbia Toll Bridge in Northampton County.

For the Flyers, the bad news coming out of Pittsburgh on Thursday was that superstar Sidney Crosby had signed a 12-year, $104.4 million extension, a cap hit of $8.7 million _ the same as this season.
It's bad news because Crosby, arguably the NHL's best player when healthy, probably could have gotten a shorter deal....which would have caused a higher cap hit per season.
By stretching out the contract, the Penguins have plenty of cap space for some moves, and it appears they will not be outbid for the best free agent on the free-agent market, Devils left winger Zach Parise.
You know, the guy the Flyers (and many others) covet.
Crosby and Parise have been close friends for several years. Crosby even shared a suite with Parise's family at the Stanley Cup Finals.
If you connect the dots, it seems a good bet that they will be on the same line together next season.
The Pens have $15 million in cap space _ and will probably clear more room by dealing defenseman Paul Martin. The defensive-challenged Penguins would also like to sign free-agent defenseman Ryan Suter.
The free-agent frenzy starts at noon on Sunday. After Parise, the list of free-agent wingers includes Alexander Semin, an expensive one-dimensional player; Shane Doan; P.A. Parenteau; and Jaromir Jagr.
Stay tuned.
* * *
Now that defenseman Dennis Wideman has signed a five-year deal with Calgary with an anuual cap hit of $5.25, Matt Carle's price probably has gone up. The Flyers have insisted all along they expect to sign him.
We shall see.
* * *
As expected, the cap for next season will rise to $70.2 million, up from $64.3 million. This will help spend-to-the-limit teams like the Flyers. And, remember, teams can exceed the cap by 10 percent in the summer.
