Keeping the Faith
Set a pace and run the race

My middle school-aged sons have reached a new challenge in their sports career. This year they began serious athletic conditioning in their physical education class -- times being what they are, I'm glad P.E. is still required. Gone are the romping-around-days of freeze-tag and unruly dodge ball games. Now they have to meet physical strength standards and run the mile every week.
And not only do they have to run it, their coach requires that each student improve their running time every week. Now, I'm no help to them in this department at all. Call on me for help with a history project or a book report. But running? Forget it. In fact, if you ever see me running -- running anywhere -- please stop and help me. Something big and bad is chasing me.
No, it is their mother who must coach them when it comes to improving their weekly time. What with her little collection of 5K trophies and ribbons --continually they mock me. She's best qualified for showing them the way. And the thing she teaches them most often is how to set pace, how to finish the race they begin.
To complete any long-distance race, the runner must set a speed that he or she can maintain. Flying out of the starting block as if your britches are on fire will do you no good if you are sucking wind by the second turn; this is true on the track, and true in life.
The writer of the book of Hebrews, aptly enough, once compared life to a sporting event. We are athletes on the track in this arena of life and there is a race to run. His coaching advice to us is essential. He says, "Strip down, travel light, and don't quit."
You can't run in stiletto heels or heavy steel-toed boots. You can't maintain your pace while running in a three-piece suit or denim skirt. Get rid of those things that will only entangle and slow you. And forget about carrying anything with you: No backpacks, no pull-behind wagons, no coolers, or picnic baskets. Free yourself from as much baggage as possible, just as a runner in a race.
And then, keep your eyes on the finish line, not being distracted by those things that can divert you off the track; finish the course. Don't go wandering into the stands for a hot dog or a beer. Get out of the souvenir shop and the weight room. Quit giving interviews to ESPN while the game is still on. Those who finish the race are the ones who stay at it, so stay at it.
On my to-do list before I turned the big "4 -- 0" last year was to complete a century bicycle ride -- a 100 miles in a day. I'm not a complete couch potato!
So I took the writer of Hebrews' advice. I got in shape and as light as possible. And on the day of the ride, I didn't concern myself with what was going on anywhere else in the world. I didn't stop to visit with people or take leisurely breaks at Starbucks. I stayed with it, grinding away hour after hour and mile after mile.
My friends asked me millions of questions afterward: "How many people rode in the ride?" I can't remember now. "What place did you finish?" I don't know. "How long did it take you from beginning to end?" Forever, it seems. "How many hours did you put in training?" Not enough. "Would you do it again?" Yes, I will.
But for me, there was only one question I wanted to be able to answer when it was over: "Did you finish?" Yes, I did, and for me that was enough.
The Scriptures do not provide us with any mystical, steroidized shortcuts to "run (or ride) with perseverance the race marked out for us." Instead, they coach us to set a pace for the marathon of life we must run. It will take everything we have to finish, but finishing is enough.

So many words competing.
Floating around in my brain.
Jumbled word of nonsense.
Waiting to be ascertained.
Unscrambling words unsought.
Emotions not yet explained.
Words need to be released.
Feelings I can no longer retain.
Writing my thoughts into verses.
Freeing me from mental fatigue.
Provoking responses in others.
Penning tales of intrigue.
Writing is the essence of my soul
Conveying my manifestations,
From drama to laughter, even tears.
Bringing me total satisfaction.

Laura Lamont's Life in Pictures by Emma Straub
Okay, I admit it...I was predisposed to like the new novel Laura Lamont's Life in Pictures as the Old Hollywood setting is very appealing to me. Those of you who know me, know about my love of 1930's Hollywood: the movies, the stars, and the glamour. From what I'd read in interviews with Emma Straub, she did quite a bit of research about the Hollywood of yesteryear. Laura Lamont is a fictional character but she reminded me a whole lot of 1930's Hollywood movie queen, Norma Shearer. There were so many similarities. Knowing the Norma Shearer story, it was interesting to see how Straub seemed to take events of Shearer's life and use them as a framework to create the character of Laura Lamont.
Of course there were differences, too. Right away the time frame was different: Shearer was born in 1902 in Canada and was already starring in films when the fictional Laura was born in 1929 Wisconsin. Shearer's father was unstable and her mother left him, while Laura's father was the glue that held the family together. Both character and icon started acting early; both had unstable sisters; both fell in love and were happily married to the young genius producer running their studio named Irving, who died tragically young; they both had sons who were Jr.'s; each won an Academy Award early in their career; neither character or icon ever had the typical problems that plagued many of their counterparts. And in an interesting twist, Laura's best friend is a character based (undoubtedly) on Lucille Ball…right down to the red-hair and the phenomenally successful TV show of the 1950s.
If you're seeking a salacious story full of Hollywood gossip, Laura Lamont's Life in Pictures is not the book for you. It's very much the introspective, quiet journey of one small-town woman battling grief, ambition and hope in equal measure. I enjoyed it…if for no other reason; I loved trying to figure out who else might be a thinly disguised star of yesteryear.
We will be discussing this book in the Better Than Therapy Book Club on March 27 at 2pm in the Library Boardroom. We are also presenting two Pre-Code film classics in March starring Norma Shearer:
--March 7 at 6:30 in the large auditorium, 1930's The Divorcee (the film that Norma won her Oscar for) and
--March 14, at 6:30pm in the large auditorium 1931's A Free Soul starring Norma (which again garnered an Academy Award nomination for Norma), Clark Gable (in the movie that pushed Gable to the forefront of public awareness), Lionel Barrymore (who won an Academy Award for this picture) and Leslie Howard.
Grab this title in the catalog in several different formats.
Join us for our foray into the Golden Age of Hollywood with this book and movies. ~Leslie West 205.332.6620 or email@example.com.

KOOTENAI COUNTY, Idaho-- Authorities transformed the Kootenai County Fairgrounds on Wednesday into practice triage center.
Hundreds of volunteers acted as patients following a fake terrorist attack during a massive drill in Coeur d'Alene. Authorities staged the drill to be a massive anthrax attack on Northern Idaho.
The practice was to help medical works train for a disaster. The volunteers waited in line at the fairgrounds and filled out paperwork listing pretend symptoms as if they were exposed to anthrax.
"It's definitely a life changing experience seeing how one experience can take care of the community," said volunteer Devin Goldolfo, "It's kind of weird but a the same time to see what happens."
More than 350 people showed up to help emergency crews train. Organizers said it the event is a stress test to figure out the weaknesses.

Great product for hair loss !

Posted by vinetu28 on Aug 31, 2012
Purchased at iHerb
Today I went to my hairdresser for one of my infrequent perms, and she said she was amazed at how thick and healthy my hair has become in the last few months. Considering that she has been doing my hair for over a decade, that sounded very reassuring to me. My hair starting thinning during the 90's when I was under a lot of stress. Add to that my age and stage of life, and my hair had little going for it. I was so embarrassed about my hair. For several years I had been trying anything anyone recommended for hair loss, but nothing made a bit of difference. I was told that such products as Rogaine might help, but would have to be used indefinitely, once I started using them. I read the warnings on the Rogaine packages and was afraid to use it. A few months ago, I went online to iHerb, where I had been buying vitamins and supplements for several years, and on a whim typed in "hair loss products." One of the things that came up was Country Life Maxi-Hair. There were a number of comments on the product, and every one was positive. Some said they would never again be without it, as it had made such an improvement in their hair. So, since I tend to put a lot of stock in such reviews where the negative is printed along with the positive, I decided to order a bottle of Maxi-Hair. I was just beginning to notice a difference in my hair, when surgery was required again. Not only did I have to leave off the Maxi-Hair and all other vitamins. Immediately after the surgery in April, I started back on the Maxi-Hair. My hairdresser told me four months later, in August, that my hair was much thicker and stronger than she had seen it in years. Today she said it was the best she had ever seen it. I would highly recommend Country Life Maxi-Hair to anyone who needs help with thinning hair. But one shouldn't expect to see a difference overnight. Hair is said to grow about a half inch per month, so naturally it takes several months for new hair to be noticed.
It helps!!

Health Food So Good You'll Want Seconds
It's a reality: Not all of us love the super-healthy stuff. The trick to eating whole grains, healthy fats, and less sugar while still enjoying every bite? Make a 50/50 mix of the food you crave and its better-for-you version, says Bonnie Taub-Dix, RD, a nutrition consultant in New York City. Cheat and win with these three blends:White and whole wheat pasta
Pick the same shape of noodle so that they'll cook for the same amount of time -- and in just one pot.
The payoff: nearly twice as much fiber (about 2g more) per serving.
Combine the two boxes in a large bowl, then return the mix to the boxes.
The payoff: depending on the cereals, approximately 2 teaspoons less sugar (8g) per serving.
A half-and-half burger will have plenty of flavor.
The payoff: 4.4g (if you use chicken) and 2.4g (if you use turkey) less saturated fat per serving.

By Melvin from USA on 2012-12-09 23:29:13Things I liked:Most of the materials are fine, light weight, adequate power for short distance target shooting, easy side lever effort, and low decibel report. It's a fine instructional gun for beginning shooters... which is why it was purchased.
Things I would have changed:The "bolt" handle is a heavy gauge wire, bent into an "L"... leaves a lot to be desired. The barrel was mounted crooked on the one I received.
What others should know:I put a Williams rear peep sight on the rifle. The Williams sight has a lot of windage adjustment, but not enough for the rifle I received. The barrel was so far out of alignment with the plastic stock that the Williams sight could not be used. I could look down the barrel and see the fore grip below... very much out of alignment. The stock sights would have worked OK as they are mounted on the barrel, but the much better Williams sight is mounted on the stock behind the barrel. I kept the Williams sight; returned the IZH 60. PA made the return painless. Thank you.

Lawton,Okla_A Lawton man is facing up to ten years in prison, after a mistaken identity led to his arrest. According to an affidavit, last Friday, officers saw 24 year-old Billy Roberts running from the EZGO on NW 24th Street and W Gore Blvd, toward a car with two other men inside it.
When the officer asked Roberts why he was running, he told them he was trying to catch a ride. Investigators say police stopped Roberts because he matched the description of a suspect in several armed robberies of local businesses.
During a criminal background check, police discovered Roberts had a warrant for his arrest out of Comanche County on drug possession charges. Police also found marijuana and some prescription pills in Roberts pocket.
Police arrested Roberts, who is now facing another drug possession charge.

Jean Baptiste Arban
Complete Conservatory Method for Trumpet
Edited by Thomas Hooten and Jennifer Marotta
CD Performance of 14 Characteristic Studies by Thomas Hooten
Carl Fischer is proud to present a new edition of the method of choice for generations of trumpet players. The New Authentic Edition of Arban's Complete Conservatory Method contains the same tried and true comprehensive system of study that Arban developed over a century ago, and this completely re-engraved edition has been painstakingly edited by prominent trumpet performers and teachers Thomas Hooten and Jennifer Marotta.
In re-editing the method, Hooten and Marotta have kept the Arban system intact, while adding some of their own insights with respect to how trumpet is taught today. Purists and modernists alike will welcome this new edition. Arban's time-tested pedagogical sequence has also been given a fresh new layout for easier reading.
As an added bonus, the enclosed CD contains spectacular performances by Thomas Hooten of all of the 14 Characteristic Studies as well as piano accompaniments for the Fantasies performed by John Walker. All tracks are in MP3 format and can be downloaded to your desktop or MP3 player / iPod. The CD also contains the original text from the first edition of the Arban method in PDF form, including multi-language translations.
The Arban Complete Conservatory Method is the definitive must-have for all trumpet players. With this masterful new edition and all of its extra resources, the Arban will remain the driving force in trumpet education for generations to come.

Method for Trombone and Baritone B.C.
Revised for Trombone by Charles L. Randall and Simone Mantia
Edited by Alan Raph
Arban's fundamental method book for trumpet was first published in 1864 and has held a top spot in trumpet studies ever since. In 1936, two of the finest trombonists of the day, Charles Randall and Simone Mantia, revised the method for trombone, creating the basis for trombone studies over the ensuing 75 years.
Today, Alan Raph brings the Arban into the 21st century, enhancing and expanding the complete Arban text, and addressing new skills and techniques developed up to current times. Sections have been expanded (i.e., scales, arpeggios), and new sections have been added (i.e., slide drills, contemporary forms of double and triple tonguing). Alternate positions have been updated and expanded. Sometimes F-attachment positions are given to facilitate awkward slide movements.
Raph's exceptional edition also includes a CD of MP3 accompaniments to the 12 Celebrated Fantaisies and Airs Variés, as performed by John Walker, for a complete instructional package for trombone students.

WASHINGTON — Despite its reputation as a state with strong gun-control laws, Massachusetts for more than a decade has not provided mental health records to an FBI database for gun background checks, the result of a 43-year-old state law prohibiting such sharing.
Massachusetts has submitted just one mental health record to the federal database since 1999 — apparently as a test — at the same time that the FBI has processed 1.6 million background checks of Bay State residents who seek to buy guns from federally licensed dealers. The situation has sparked concerns that firearms could fall into the hands of the mentally ill.

Did a 10 day detox (7 day full fast)
I went into the challenge of a full fast a little nervous but was surprised at how quickly the days passed. I feel much stronger having completed this and feel as though I can achieve things I couldn't have before. I also really loved the food and beautiful presentation of all the raw meals, I will definitely be trying some of these back home. All the staff in the Detox house were really friendly and helpful and made it a very welcoming atmosphere.
Thanks very much, Ill definitely be back in the near future.
Cheers Soph

I did a 5 day raw food detox, followed by a 5 days of eating at the Healthy Kitchen restaurant. Overall, the experience was beyond my initial expectations. All the food was prepared and delivered in an extremely professional environment. I had never eaten raw food before and absolutely loved it.
On the 9th day here, I had all my measurements retaken and was thrilled to see how much I'd lost. I would absolutely recommend Phuket Fit to friends and family and look forward to returning.
A big Thank You to ALL the team.

Kate Durrant – UK – 13th November 2013
Did a 7 Day Detox and 7 Day Fitness
I arrived at Phuket Fit with hopes of losing a few kgs and toning up a little. I quickly discovered, however, to make any lasting changes I would need to work on my reasons for overeating (and for choosing to eat healthy food, etc)
Through conversations with Sharon, some soul searching of my own, along with the wonderful Tapping Technique of Sharons (even the guys are raving about this technique she uses) I was able to let go of my unhelpful overwhelming emotions and make space for……light/love/air. Thank you Sharon, I owe you more than I can say.
A huge thank you to Thip and Dai for opening my eyes to the awesomeness of raw foods and juices. To all the staff for being so lovely and for making my stay so enjoyable. And finally (before I sound like an Oscar Award Winner) a big thank you to the fitness team for being so talented, fun and professional.
Phuket Fit, thank you and I look forward to visiting again.

Andrea Willemse – South Africa– 7th November 2013
Dear Sharon
Thank you for all your time and patience this week. I came to the detox to rest and recuperate and to get my body and mind strong and I got exactly that. I loved the raw food, the resort and mostly the people I've met along the way. I have found the experience spiritually enlightening and I am leaving with a fresh perspective and better understanding of how to look after myself physically and emotionally. Don't be surprised if you see me back here…..Thank you! Love and Light

Rob Neil – Australia – 2 week Detox – Lost 7.5kg
Coming here to Phuket Fit for the first time I had no idea what to expect. Travelling alone I thought the experience would be hard.
I couldn't have been more wrong.
Sharon and Pookie are terrific, they both care so much about your health, the support, humour and wealth of knowledge are very much appreciated.
The Phuket Fit staff are all very friendly and made my time here more enjoyable.
The most pleasing factor of the detox program was the quality of foods, smoothies and juices – thanks to Dai and Thip.
I have made many new friends and look forward to keeping in touch and following everyones progress. All the other guests here are supportive to one another. You are never alone unless you choose to be. It was as easy as sitting at a table with a group and introducing yourself and now you have another group of friends.
Phuket Fit – I cant possibly thank you enough for the last two weeks, I will be counting the days until I come back.
Love and Thanks

PhuketFit makes headlines again with the launch of their New Weight Loss Program: http://www.prweb.com/releases/2013/9/prweb11098456.htm
{ 0 reviews }
Very together and clean. Bungalow was good, but internet wasn't very consistent. The training and classes and everything were much better than expected. I thought maybe they would be Thai trainers but there were many very good trainers from England and America. The beach close by is great and can be walked to in about 10 minutes. You don't have to rent a scooter or car because many places you can walk to and the restaurant and bungalows, gym etc are all on site at the same place. Some guest never left and just did the training and stayed around the camp. Seemed silly though because there are some great locations near by like phromthep cape which is the tip of the island.

This was review of Phuket Fit which I just found on a forum and decided to republish here:
Having to been to many fitness camps in Thailand, Phuket Fit certainly has set itself apart as one which truly cares and is there to help people get the results they want.
The trainers, staff and owners are all very nice and helped me immensely with advice and recommendations.
Like everything there were some down points too. Most notably the restaurant was slow around lunch times. There were a couple of occasions where I waited 30 minutes to receive my order. This is because at lunch times everyone comes in at the same time and makes their orders. This can slow things down.
That being said, at about the time I complete my program at Phuket Fit, I had noticed that they had hired a new health food chef and also another waitress. So it seems that they new off the problem and were fixing it.
The programs and service at Phuket Fit are far better that I have experienced before. I have even been to many health resorts where I paid almost double what I did at Phuket Fit and received what I feel was not as good as what I got here.
At Phuket Fit they have staff who are there to give you a 1 on 1 consultation for nutrition and diet. The training also begins with a 1 on 1 fitness evaluation and this also includes personalised information to help you reach your goals.
The whole place is filled with guests, staff and trainers who always have a smile of their face and all seem to be really enjoying there time. This goes a long way to giving it a great atmosphere where everyone is there to get in shape and change their lives.
Phuket Fit is definitely a place I will be returning too in the future.

Just received this one:
We had a wonderful time and although we were only there for a short time, we feel we got the "Phuket Fit experience". It was a lot of a fun and we met some great people there. There were a few problems with accommodation when we first arrived (light in bathroom didn't turn on) but the team were fairly quick to rectify the situation. Fitness instructor Justin was very good and my wife really enjoyed the yoga class.

The resort has;
- a full Fitness gym with treadmills, ellipticals, spin bikes, weights, machines and more. The gym is awesome!

- Kickboxing ring and bags. They have some really great Muay Thai kickboxing trainers too!
- Fitness area where all the fitness classes are run. Top fitness trainers from the UK and USA.
- TRX training area with 20 TRX suspension trainers as well as the Rip Trainer. This is instructed by the only Master Certified TRX trainer in Thailand.

Mexican standoff
A Mexican standoff is most precisely a confrontation among three opponents armed with guns. The tactics for such a confrontation are substantially different from those for a duel, where the first to shoot has the advantage. In a confrontation among three mutually hostile participants, the first to shoot is at a tactical disadvantage. If opponent A shoots opponent B, then while so occupied, opponent C can shoot A, thus winning the conflict. Since it is the second opponent to shoot that has the advantage, no one wants to go first.
Popular use[edit]
In popular usage, the Mexican standoff is sometimes used to refer to confrontations with only two opponents when neither side has an advantage in conceding property or by attacking first. Discussions of the Soviet Union – United States nuclear confrontation during the Cold War frequently used the term, specifically in reference to the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962. The key element that makes such situations Mexican standoffs is the very close equality in power among all involved.[1] The inability for any one party to advance their position safely is a condition common to any standoff; in a Mexican standoff, there is additionally no safe way for any party to withdraw from their position, making the standoff effectively permanent.
In financial circles, the Mexican standoff is typically used to connote a situation where one side wants something, a concession of some sort, and is offering nothing of value. When the other side sees no value in agreeing to any changes, they refuse to negotiate. Although both sides may benefit from the change, neither side can agree to adequate compensation for agreeing to the change, and nothing is accomplished.
This expression came into usage during the last decade of the 19th century; the Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary makes an unattributed claim that the term is of Australian origin. Other sources claim the reference is to the Mexican–American War or post-war Mexican bandits in the 19th century.[1]
The earliest print cite to the phrase was 19 March 1876 in a short story about Mexico, an American being held up by a Mexican bandit, and the outcome. "Go-!" said he sternly then. "We will call it a stand-off, a Mexican stand-off, you lose your money, but you save your life!" [2]
The Mexican standoff is now considered a movie cliché stemming from its frequent use as a plot device in cinema.

In video games[edit]
The ending of the video game Call of Juarez: The Cartel features the protagonists engaging in a Mexican standoff. This then leaves the player(s) to decide whether or not to kill their teammates. Also the game Call of Juarez: Gunslinger features Mexican standoff involving Silas Graves - fictional main character - Sundance Kid and Butch Cassidy.
In the 2010 video game Red Dead Redemption, almost every multiplayer match begins with a Mexican standoff to determine which player or team gets an early advantage. Also, the single-player story features a Mexican standoff between John Marston, Landon Rickets, Herr Mueller, and some banditos over Mueller's false accusation that Marston was cheating. Rickets refers to it as "an impasse" after Mueller asks if there is a name for the situation, the joke being that the characters are in Mexico when this occurs.
In the 2012 video game Borderlands 2, the mission The Good, the Bad, and the Mordecai requests the player to locate a treasure stolen long ago from Mordecai by Carson. An assault on Friendship Gulag where the thief was detained reveals that he has been murdered by his cellmate, Mobley. Following the trail, the player digs out the treasure from a tomb on Boot Hill before being challenged for its possession by Mobley and Gettle, a Hyperion treasure hunter, to a three-way "Truxican standoff" in the cemetery.
In the 2013 video game Grand Theft Auto: V a Mexican standoff ensues with protagonists Michael and Trevor, Merryweather mercenaries, FIB and IAA (Parodies of the FBI and CIA respectively).

Guy Timberlake — Co-Founder and Chief Visionary Officer, American Small Business Coalition
Agencies use requests-for-information, or RFIs, to get exactly that — information about possibilities to deal with whatever challenge they're facing.
But some of the information they're asking for may be getting a little personal, Guy Timberlake the co-founder and chief visionary officer at the American Small Business Coalition says.
Greg Wilshusen — Director of Information Security Issues, Government Accountability Office
The Environmental Protection Agency collects a lot of information that it needs to keep secure. But in a new review, the Government Accountability Office, which looked at the security protocol the agency has in place to keep its information secure, found some room for improvement.
Greg Wilshusen, a director of Information Security Issues at GAO, discusses the report's findings.

Vice Adm. Mark Harnitchek — Director of the Defense Logistics Agency
The Defense Logistics Agency is always busy, especially the man in charge of the operation — Vice Adm. Mark Harnitchek.
In the second part of our exclusive interview, Harnitchek says one of the biggest challenges facing the supply chain is counterfeits. He told Federal News Radio Executive Editor Jason Miller that knowing whether or not the DLA's actually getting what it's buying is more than just a performance issue.

Bill Dougan — President, National Federation of Federal Employees
President Barack Obama announced he'll raise federal pay by 0.5 percent — but he's waiting to do it until the continuing resolution Congress is promising, expires at the end of March next year.
Bill Dougan, president of the National Federation of Federal Employees, says he was "deeply disappointed" by the decision.

Discussion: Rock softball
Lefty, The Dudley Thunder advance balls were multilayer balls and were a grossly illegal ball made to cheat the ASA tests and the ASA quickly banned them. To compare the advance to the ss usa balls by trump is not even close in comparison. You surely are no expert on balls or you would know that. The Baden fire is labeled 44 375 but if you look at the ball you will see it has no association stamp, that's because it wont test at 44 375 its actually much higher in in COR and compression. The trump ss usa ball actually tests out at 44 375 as its labeled and a legal 44 375 polycore ball will always be heat sensitive..

Discussion: Softball and hot weather!!
The Baden fire ball used by SPA is labeled 44 375. Players like to hit it because if its tested its 500 lbs. The first player seriously injured by this ball will have a really good lawsuit against the SPA and Baden because they both know its dangerous but use it anyway.
Marv, You are smarter than the average bear, don't make the mistale of using a multilayer ball or a mislabeled ball. If you have doubts about a ball Kevin can have it tested for accuracy.

|Topic: Bats
Discussion: New Combat Centenarian 10" barrel
I'll add a little history here for you guys who don't know whats going on with this thread. A few years ago when Kevin (Tattooball) was at Anaconda he came up with an idea for Bob Russell (AKA Bobby Buggs) to market a softball with the Evil Sports name. Bobby was becoming well known at the time as a bat doctor and at that time nothing was really wrong with being a bat doctor. Kevin developed the line and literally gave Bob a business. When Kevin left Anaconda he gave Bob the option of continuing on with the new company or with staying with Anaconda. Bob chose Anaconda but he was wary that his sales would decrease with the competition from Kevin's new ball, Tattoo. Bob began a campaign against Kevin on the softball fans board by making up new names on the board and posting negative unsolicited comments using a fictional moniker for softball fans posters. GOBOOM is another attempt by Bob to discredit Kevin. Bob does not live in Iowa, as GOBOOM claims, he lives in Massachusetts. Bob wants Kevins new bat to be discredited because he will be selling the second edition of the white Centurian with Anaconda.
I know all of this because I was in the same situation as Bob with regard to my ball the GURU. Kevin did the same for me as he did for Bob and when the move to Tattoo was made I chose to stay with Kevin, not Anaconda. Bob called me a few times trying to decide which was best for him, he chose to remain with Anaconda.

I started in senior softball 18 years ago and and have continually played major plus.We hit more home runs with the DiMarini double wall and .50 COR balls than we do today.

Discussion: 52 Core Ball
I absolutely disagree with Einstein and 4x4. Testing different balls to see how they fly is perfect off of a tee. The swing is always the same and the only variable is the ball and watching how it flies will tell you the differnce in the balls. The temp of the balls is the same, the wind is the same and the bat is the same. You can change the bat and see the differences in the bat as well. With live pitching timing is part of the equation and you cannot be consistently the same like you can off of a tee.

Discussion: Interference?
When a runner is tagged out, his body still has the right to exist. Its umpires judgement as to whether the runner interfered and is totally his discretion. You cannot protest, ball strike..out safe or interference obstruction.

Discussion: Baseball ruling?
Since we had a rules discussion, I'd like to ask this one, it happened in one of my grandsons baseball games.
Runner on first, no outs. Pitcher goes into the stretch and pauses, runner on first steals second and the pitcher doesnt flinch, he just continues his pause. The runner is now past second when the pitcher throws home. Batter lines out and throw goes back to first to complete a double play and the umpire calls the runner out. I dont think it was the right call but I am not sure. Since the runner was past second when the pitch was thrown, I think he only has to tag at second, which he did.

Fair or foul is always the position of the ball, never the position of the fielder.

Discussion: Old Spice Presents: You make the call, Part 574
Stick, This is a terrific rules question. My thinking is that the whole play evolves around the runner from third. As you described the play , I dont think the runner did anything wrong. He avoided a collision on his first pass by the plate and had an obligation to touch home and he had to do it before the second runner scored. You stated that he "accidently" bumped the catcher, this means that he didnt attempt to dislodge the ball, he just attempted to score. I say no interference and the play stands, both runners safe.

ST. LUCIE COUNTY - For those who love their barbecue chicken, baby back ribs or pulled pork sandwiches, a fundraiser on Sept. 1 will bring some of the best to the Riverwalk Center in Fort Pierce.
Called the "Taste of the South Barbecue Festival," the first-year event is to benefit the Pilot Club of Fort Pierce.
"We have several teams coming from out of town," said Kevin Vanover, the organizer of the festival and owner of Above Average Entertainment. "We have teams coming in from North and South Carolina, Georgia and cities here in Florida."
On a local level, there are already a few teams signed up to compete, including the championship competition team Git 'R Smoked BBQ and Catering and Tillman's Famous BBQ.
For the barbecue festival, a people's choice award will allow festival goers to vote on their favorites.
"It's more of a local festival," Mr. Vanover said.
But the event is more than just food. Dozens of art and craft vendors will be on hand to display their wares, and music will be performed by live bands throughout the day.
Local bands such as The Russ Maxwell Band, Felix Moss and the Easy People Band, and the Humdingers are expected to take the stage in the all-day event. There are even plans for a music competition, called the Treasure Coast Flat Pickin competition, where a guitar pick is used to pluck the guitar strings.
"Bring a lawn chair or a blanket, and settle in for the day," Mr. Vanover said. "From foodies to music lovers, there will be something here for everyone."
The Taste of the South barbecue festival will take place from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. at the Riverwalk Center, 600 N. Indian River Drive in Fort Pierce. Admission and parking are free.
For more information, call (772) 985-2083 or email email@example.com.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Neem?
Neem is a tree native to Southeast Asia and it is renowned for its therapeutic benefits externally for the skin and for internally as a dietary supplement.
What is Neem like?
Our certified organic and ethically wild crafted Neem oil and Neem leaf extracts are commonly likened to Tea Tree essential oil for its broad-spectrum actions; however Neem is not as drying or irritating to the skin as Tea Tree oil. All forms of Neem help to feed, soothe and nourish the skin wherever it is applied for both humans and pets. Neem leaf has a mild aroma, and is cooling, bitter and astringent when taken internally as a dietary supplement or applied topically. Neem is naturally rich in Quercetin; Quercetin is valued for its ability to support the body's response to inflammation. All forms of Neem contain high levels of antioxidants which help to protect our body free radicals internally and externally.
Neem oil has a rich, nutty and garlic like aroma that smells like food. This nutty/garlic like aroma provides protection for your outdoor fun, pets and the garden. Without this pleasant aroma, Neem oil would not work!
Note: Neem oil is for external applications only!
Why use Neem on the skin?
Neem is cooling, soothing and astringent. Cooling- it helps to cool and calm the skin, scalp, gums or wherever it is applied. Soothing- it has been used for thousands of years to support healthy skin and it is traditionally used to help normalize irritated, rough or exceptionally dry skin. Astringent- this means it helps to tighten tissue and lessen secretions. This is useful to normalize, tighten pores, balance skin tone and texture and promote youthful and healthy skin.
About Organix South
They are the world's leading manufacturer of certified-organic Neem products. Organix-South is a rapidly growing natural products division of Nutraceutical Corporation, located in rural central Florida supporting USA jobs. They are a young and idealistic group of individuals who believe that the details matter and that the journey is half the fun. They are committed to promoting organic, fairly traded and ethically wild-crafted herbal dietary supplements and protective body care products. Their mission is to create wholesome and natural products while taking care of the planet.
Mission Statement
Their mission is to offer a synergy of organic, therapeutic and cruelty free herbal products that are great for the whole family, your pets and the planet too!
Code of Ethics
Other Efforts
In 2008, Autumn sold Organix to Nutraceutical Corporation but still runs the day to day operations of the division. They are now a publically traded company supporting American jobs while building mutually beneficial partnerships with organic farmers and wild-crafters in India. They buy many of their herbs through a relationship they created with Nisarga Biotech (Nisarga means nature) in the organic Umbari Farm, located southeast of Mumbai in India. The farm itself has been certified organic through the internationally recognized ECOCERT™ and they have committed to providing financial assistance to help nearby farmers convert to organic growing as well.
Umbari encompasses 10 acres of organic farm land surrounded by 20 acres of national forest areas that also have been certified organic for ethically wild-crafted herbs. They also purchase herbs from Vita Organic Farms which has access to over 300 acres of certified organic farms.
To ensure that their herbs are fairly traded and sustainably harvested, they pay 10% over market value for herbs harvested by the Umbari and Vita farms. They enrich the health of the earth by supporting organic agriculture, and they nourish the people who grow and collect their organic herbs.
At the same time, they third-party test all of their herbs for botanical identify, purity and strength to ensure that their customers receive therapeutic-grade herbal products that are cruelty-free and made for the whole family (pets too!).
