While reading about and studying the processes that gave rise to this astonishing world, please don't forget that it is beautiful. It is not merely mechanics, but poetry.
When a Christian explores divine action in nature, that person also moves into the realm of revealed purpose and meaning of existence—each of which emanate from within the triune God who is love.
The former chair of the Harvard University physics department muses on how faith gives meaning to his scientific work.
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
Here are some of the best responses from around the web to David's Barash's controversial editorial about God and Evolution in the New York Times.
"We should be slow to accuse another of discarding the authority of Scripture, and therefore denouncing them, just because they interpret Scripture differently than we do."
From a Judeo-Christian perspective, all of these curiosities dovetail into a profoundly meaningful explanation: Being made in God's image helps to explain our creative and investigative skills, particularly when we consider that God has specially engineered this universe to reveal himself to human beings.
News about the Ebola outbreak and initiatives in genomic medicine lead our news roundup this week, with a collection of research and learning opportunities in biology and at the science/faith border to follow.
The purpose of Jesus's art was to give verbal, visual, and dramatic forms to those complicated and confounding relationships, symmetries, and harmonies between himself, the father and spirit, and between the triune God and the world… Such creative expressions did not and do not make everything clear, but rather resist simple clarity, forcing their hearers to come at the whole complicated truth from a position of intellectual and spiritual humility.
The great irony lies here: these partisans are actually leading good-hearted people to reject their faith, precisely because these partisans have convinced these good-hearted people that they must accept a false dichotomy.
Learning about science has taught me humility about my Bible reading and it has pushed me to think again, to read again, to ask again, and to wonder all over again what the Bible was saying when it was written and how the Bible was heard to its original hearers (so far as the evidence permits us to know such things).
This week in origins news, a great collection of articles by key players in the conversation about theology and science, a surprising science fair discovery, and the Apollo 11 anniversary!
We don't have all the answers and never will. And when God says that he is revealed in his creation, I think that means we need to take care of what we have and understand where we came from. The more I understand how things work, the bigger God gets. When he was just a magician pulling things out of a hat, that doesn't even compare to how I see him now!
Last year I introduced readers to one of the leading voices about Christianity and science, John Polkinghorne. I also helped BioLogos bring in another leading voice, Robert Russell. This new series introduces a third prominent Christian thinker, Lutheran theologian Ted Peters, Research Professor Emeritus in Systematic Theology and Ethics at Pacific Lutheran Theological Seminary, the Center for Theology and the Natural Sciences (http://www.ctns.org/), and the Graduate Theological Union in Berkeley, California.
This week in origins news is a rousing medley of articles about science and faith, from multiple angles. Some classics on science, religion, and the classroom along with some probing into where atheists come from, new resources from John Polkinghorne, and an off-the-beaten-path blog post.

Welcome to Golf Super 18!
Golf is one of the oldest games, played by golfers all over the world. It's an enjoyable and relaxing game. Though golf looks like a very easy game, where all you need to do is swing a club and roll those little white balls into a hole, it may make one feel that it is not necessary to learn the skills of the game. To think so, would make you feel like a fool on the greens. So, you've got to learn the rules, the use of the right gear even though all those 'sticks' look the same. Most importantly, you have to learn the good etiquette on the course. Remember lots of practice and perseverance can take you a long way, learning the game of golf.
Golf requires lots of practice and hard word. Go to the course as often as possible to practice, but do it when the course is not too crowded. The par 3-course is good for beginners. It gives you the practice to play all the necessary golf shots and will not get you stressed out like when playing on a 250-yard course, where you can have shots over the water. Another important element is to learn your course well. Take a walk around, so you can understand the way the designer intended the game to be played on it and you too could enjoy the beauty of nature.
The goal is to have fun and play a great game, but it's important to maintain quality and play safe. Make sure the others are at a safe distance, before you swing your club. Don't hit in the direction of any person around or in front of you. If this happens, yell 'fore' as a warning. Observe safety rules of the golf cart. Keep the cart off the greens and drive carefully.
Golf has been one of the most cultured sports ever and compulsorily involves etiquette. It's impolite to be too noisy, or yell out after a good shot or talk during another player's swing. Never step on a player's putting line, as this could alter the path of his putt. Step over or walk around it. Check where you're standing, so that your shadow is not across a player's putting line.
It's also essential to maintain a good pace. If you're playing with a group, plan your next move and keep the right club ready. Fast play will help you play a better game and make you an enjoyable person to play with. In a friendly game, players can agree to 'ready play', which means playing, when any player who is ready can play, instead of playing in order, as in a tournament. The rule permits a player five minutes to look for a lost ball. But, this could be annoying for others. So a considerate player would wave up the group behind to play through. When you walk from your cart to your ball, take a couple of clubs along. You wouldn't want to come all the way back for the right club, as this would waste time and be annoying to others. Always leave the putting green, as soon as you have finished.
With all this in your heart and mind, you will see that golf is a really enjoyable and fun game to play with others or alone. So, pick up your gear and get started.

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Staff Reviews Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the Rockford Fosgate Punch P500X2 by Buck Pomerantz My system has plenty of power. Who needs an amp? You might think you don't need an amp because you have a 400-watt system in your car, or because your new stereo puts out 50 watts a channel. But those are peak wattage ratings, which may boil down to 15 or 20 watts per channel, using the more realistic RMS rating. An amp sends your speakers the power they need to deliver your music with clarity and impact, whether you're using factory speakers or high-performance components. And low-frequency reproduction requires lots of power, so an amp is an absolute must if you're adding a sub to your system. Big power for your speakers or sub Rockford Fosgate's Punch P500X2 amplifier sends 150 watts RMS per channel to your speakers, filling your ride with clean music. You can use the high-pass filter to keep the low bass out of your speakers so they perform more efficiently. You can also switch this versatile amp into mono mode to drive a subwoofer with up to 500 watts RMS, then use the built-in low-pass filter to send the correct bass frequencies to your sub. The Punch EQ2 features bass and treble boosts, in case you want to add a little boom and sizzle back into the mix. Easy to set for optimum performance P300X2 control panel shown as example Once again, Rockford Fosgate steps away from the crowd with their C.L.E.A.N. technology (Calibrated Level Eliminates Audible Noise) — a setup system that ensures your music will sound as clean and powerful as possible. It works like this: play the setup tone on the included test CD, adjust the receiver volume until a red clip light on the amp goes out, then turn the amp gain up until a blue light comes on. It's that simple — your amplifier is now set to match your receiver's output. When your receiver reaches maximum clean volume, you'll get maximum clean power from your Punch amp. At quiet listening levels, you'll hear less background noise and more of your music. Keeps an eye on things while playing If that blue light turns solid red while you're playing music, the amp's telling you that your source is distorting and you should turn it down, or risk damage to your gear. The optional PLC2 remote level control also doubles as a clip indicator, so you can see from the front seat if your music's clipping. The amp's built-in computer keeps tabs on the output current, ensuring that plunging speaker impedances (they change during play) or even a short circuit won't hurt anything. Maintaining coolness raises efficiency and lowers distortion Rockford Fosgate's Dynamic Thermal Management system uses forced air to dissipate heat evenly across the amp and out through the high-mass heatsink, efficiently drawing heat away from vital internal parts. Their proprietary MEHSA cooling process maximizes the heat transfer from the MOSFET devices to the heatsink, allowing the heat to escape more readily, so the transistors stay cooler and work better.

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Features Controls Connections Features CEA-2006 Compliant: CEA-2006 is a system of testing and measurement methods for mobile audio amplifiers. This voluntary standard advocates a uniform method for measuring an amplifier's RMS power output and signal-to-noise ratio. The criteria for measuring power uses a DC input voltage of 14.4 volts and the RMS power output is measured with 1% or less Total Harmonic Distortion plus noise (THD+N) over a frequency range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz (for full range amplifiers). Signal-to-Noise ratio is measured in weighted absolute decibels (dBA) at a reference of 1 watt into 4Ω. CEA-2006 allows consumers to compare car amplifiers and receivers on an equal basis. Using CEA-2006 criteria, the Rockford Fosgate P500X2 is rated as follows: Power Output: 4Ω: 150 watts x 2-channels 2Ω: 250 watts x 2-channels Bridged: 500 watts x 1-channel (into 4Ω) Signal to Noise Ratio: 85 dBA (105 dB at rated power) Cast Aluminum Heatsink: The cast aluminum heatsink dissipates heat generated by the amplifier's circuitry. The inherent advantage of casting provides a 30% cooling improvement over conventional extrusion heatsink designs. Dynamic Thermal Management (DTM): DTM evenly distributes excess heat across the amplifier's entire heatsink. MEHSA³ (Maximum Efficiency Heat Sink Application-3rd Generation): MEHSA is a Rockford Fosgate proprietary process that increases the heat transfer from the MOSFET devices to the heatsink. The multi-layer insulated metal MEHSA substrate operates with minimal thermal resistance, spreading heat both downward and outward to quickly dissipate heat from each device across the heatsink. This allows greater power output, enhanced thermal stability, and maximum reliability. Trans-ANA (TRANSconductance Active Nodal Amplifier): Trans-ANA is a circuit that allows the audio signal to pass through the amplifier at low voltage. The signal is directly level-shifted to the fixed high voltage rails via a pair of drive transistors. Signal linearity is assured by an active node formed by the drive transistors at ultrasonic frequencies. The result is crystal clear sound quality. NOMAD (NOn-Multiplying Advanced Decision): NOMAD is an intelligent protection circuit that uses an analog computer to make real time decisions regarding temperature, voltage, current and impedance. The amplifier is protected without limiting sound output unless needed. DSM (Discrete Surface Mount): High speed robotics are used in the manufacturing process to place 1% tolerance parts and large board traces. DSM improves the efficiency of the circuit, decreases cross-talk from other discrete components and lowers operating temperature. CLEAN Set-Up: Rockford's integrated level setting technology, CLEAN (Calibrated Level Eliminates Audible Noise), replaces sophisticated test equipment with input/output clip LEDs, allowing you to match the source unit's output to the amp's gain, and optimize the amp's output. The input clip indicator works in conjunction with the audio source volume, illuminating red when the source reaches it's clipping point. The output clip indicator works in conjunction with the input level dial on the amp, illuminating the appropriate color depending on the audio content used for the setup. Power and Protection LEDs: The LEDs are located on top of the amplifier. A blue Power LED illuminates when the amplifier is turned on. A red Thermal LED illuminates if the amplifier overheats. The yellow Protect LED illuminates if a short circuit or too low an impedance is detected at the speaker connections. When any of the protection circuits engage, the amp automatically shuts down until the problem is corrected. Balanced Differential Inputs: Differential inputs eliminate noise picked up by signal cables by measuring the voltage of both the (+) and (-) input signal, then subtracting the voltage common to both conductors (noise), resulting in only the clean signal entering the amplifier. Controls Input Level: To accommodate the varying range of signal levels from today's factory and aftermarket radios, the input level is adjustable from 150mV to 12V. Crossover: The amplifier's internal crossover has a 12 dB/octave slope. It can be set to high-pass, all-pass (full range), or low-pass operation and the crossover point is variable from 50 Hz to 250 Hz. Punch EQ: Punch EQ works along with the crossover switch. When the crossover is set to low-pass, the Punch EQ acts as a variable bass boost; 0-18 dB at 45 Hz. When the crossover is set to high-pass, the Punch EQ acts as variable treble boost, 0-14 dB at 12.5 kHz. When the crossover is set to all-pass, both the bass and treble boost circuits are active. Connections Power Connections: The power and ground terminals are nickel-plated captive c-clamp wire connectors and will accommodate up to 4-gauge wire. An external 80-amp fuse (not included) must be installed on the power wire. The remote turn-on terminal will accept up to 12-gauge wire. A Phillips or flat-head screwdriver (not supplied) is required to tighten/loosen the terminals. Speaker Connections: The two pair of speaker output terminals are also nickel-plated captive c-clamps and will accept up to 8-gauge wire. A Phillips or flat-head screwdriver (not supplied) is required to tighten/loosen the terminals. Signal Input: The RCA inputs will accept either a line-level or speaker-level input. A speaker-level signal can be connected using a Speaker Wire to RCA adapter (sold separately). When using a speaker-level input signal, the auto turn-on feature is active and the remote turn-on terminal becomes a 12 volt output to turn on/off up to two additional amplifiers or other components. Line Level Output: The amplifier has a pair of RCA line level pass-thru outputs to feed another amplifier. The pass-thru output is passive (the same signal present at the amp's input) and the amp's crossover has no effect on the signal. Punch Level Control (PLC): An RJ-45 jack is provided for connecting an optional wired remote PLC2 (item number 575PLC2, sold separately), allowing remote control of the output level of the amplifier. A second RJ-45 jack is the PLC output, used to daisy-chain additional amplifiers controlled by a single remote. Note: Previous model PEQ, Punch Bass, and Para-Punch remotes will not work with this amp. Product reviews from the Crutchfield Labs (what are the Labs?) Review: Rockford Fosgate C.L.E.A.N.

Giordana Silverline Long Sleeve Jersey $0.00
Shoulder the seasons in style.
For those days that you may not want to pour yourself into a body-hugging garment, Giordana has developed the Silverline Long Sleeve Jersey. Its generous cut means that it'll suit the needs of road cyclists as well as mountain bikers alike. Whether you need a little extra room to accommodate your holiday excesses, or you're planning on hitting the mountain trails in less than balmy weather, this jersey will give you the freedom of movement and the warm protection you'll most value.
Made from an advanced microfiber material called Techno, it's designed to give you the perfect balance between insulation and moisture transfer to keep you warm as well as dry. With the Techno fabric, perspiration is rapidly moved away from the skin as vapor, ensuring that you'll never suffer that cold, clammy feeling that can often afflict you during those difficult to dress for trans-seasonal rides. The fabric has a soft brushed inner surface that traps body heat next to the skin, while it simultaneously pulls the perspiration away.
A special rear panel has been stitched between the shoulder blades and is made from an alternative fabric called MicroQuad. It has been added to strengthen that portion of the jersey so that the generous three rear pockets will not sag or pull uncomfortably at your shoulders even when heavily loaded with gear. Similarly well-thought out, the jersey's underarms are constructed from Michron inserts. Michron is a fabric that Giordana considers its best performance fabric ever. Made entirely from polyester micro fiber yarns, it quickly moves moisture off the skin. At the same time, the unique miniature honeycomb textured knit allows airflow to keep you cool.
The eponymous Silverline full front zipper is reversed to provide full-frontal protection against any wind penetration. A gripper pull tab has been incorporated to make it easy to fiddle with the zipper even when your hands are clumsy with gloves. The elastic cuffs and elasticized waist will ensure a snug fit where no unwanted cold air will surprise you up the arms or under the small of your back. The already mentioned three deep rear pockets will ensure that you'll be able to take everything you could possibly need on your rides. Reflective piping on the pockets has been included, as have reflective logos on the chest and shoulders to keep you visible in low level lighting.
The Giordana Silverline Long Sleeve Jersey comes in Black, Blue, and Red. It's available in sizes Small through XXX-Large.

Great temp range
Well made with good materials. I ride this piece between 50 and 68 degree temps with various base layers. Never cold or too hot. 6'3" 214 and 36" arms went with 3xl. Slightly short in front but adequate (long torso). Handy piece of gear.
"Giordana" might be Italian for midget. At 5,11 185 lbs with moderate muscles I would not think 3XL is my size in anything but this is what I needed. Smaller than Castelli and definitely smaller than Pearl Izumi.

ALL bike-wear 'run small', and yes, especially European manufacturers; however, I have this same jersey (woman's, of course), and find it to fit perfectly, and the "Silverline" has a more generous fit than their FR-C lineup. You just have to honest with your measurements, and order accordingly, usually one size up for most all European clothes (including designers'). That's just the way they size...and I have had some of those 'other' brands, they don't hold a candle to Giordana . Giordana Rules!

Jockey Quotes
RAFAEL BEJARANO, SAINT ISABELLE, Winner: "The trainer told me he didn't want me to send her to the lead. The last time she was on the lead but today it was a completely different kind of race. She was real relaxed behind the leaders…it was part of the plan. She had been working really well for this and I thought she would improve a lot. I saw everybody sending so I knew it would be good for me."
Trainer Quotes
MIKE PUYPE, SAINT ISABELLE, Winner: "I thought there was too much speed in the race and I knew we needed to try to change her tactics. She was a little late switching her leads, but when she did she kicked on. She closed before when we tried it that way, that's why we knew it would float today. There's a couple of other sprint stakes here at the meet we'll look at. We'll let her come back and see where she's at."

The girl's rustic broad-brimmed hat was also decorated with loavos, berries and dried blossoms, Tlie picture was worth seeing, but the schoolmaster evidently had not an artist's eye. At the first glance he said to liimself, "Pity that girl doesn't know how to spend her time in a morn proiiinblo wny than to trim up a cow in all that nonsense," The girl colored to the deepest crimson when she discovered the stranger's eye upon her, and she disappeared into the barn w^i her cow as quickly ns pos-; sibie. The woman in the doorway dii.pwd of her dish of corn, felt of hor Duck J hair and made haste to decorate her [ plain matronly features with a bright, ■ hospitable smile. "The new schoolmaster, I s'pose," j said she, holding out her hand. "I—-Idon't know," replied he, gaz- ; ing after the retreating figure of the j young girl in a dazed sort of way. "What!" came in a tone of extreme astonishment from the woman, who re- ,' garded him with sudden suspicion. " O, excuse me, tho faot is, I nm the ; ttew schoolmaster.

He talked both of commerce and learning until the two young lumbermen looked properly subdued and became silent, " Speakin' of books," said the landlady, "1 bought one of a peddler Inst summer.

An awed h'uah succeeded' this announcement, and for the firsfc time Phebe lifted her eyes and looked the consequential gentleman full iu the face. It was a shy, brief glance, but filled with half-awed, half-admiring interest. The schoolmaster started when he met their gaze as if he had received a blow, and from that moment he was a changed man, so bound by the chains of love that his mind took no more ambitious cicnt to hush it.

Pinally he bid the boys good-by, thanked them for their courtesies in showing him around, skipped for the train and got on board. The seats were all occupied, and a middle-aged lady, with a slim face aud spectacles, and evidently ait old maid, allowed hira to sit beside her. Ths car was warm, and ifc was not long before the "remains" began to be heard from. Ho was talking with the lady when he smelled something. Tho lady had been smelling it for some milo.* back, and she had got her oyo on Mi'. Hoyt, and had put her handkerchief to her nose. He took a long breath and said to the lady: cems sort of fixed here in i not ?" aud he looked up •ii fum f o let ner very much fixed, nnd I believe .you are the man /hat fixed it!" and she took her saehel and wont fo the rear of tho car, whero she glared afc him as though ho was a fat-rendering establishment.

He vowed by all that was groat and glorious that ho, had not, whon she fold him that thoro was something about his breath that reminded her of strong drink or a paoiriug-honso. Ho allowed that it was uot him, but admitted that he had noticed th»re was something wrong, though ho didn't know but ifc was some of hor tooth that needed filling.

This dazzling enhancer is beautifully detailed. A pink rhodonite gemstone is encased in an openwork pattern of polished sterling silver filigree scrolls. At the top, a highly polished snap hinge bail finishes the piece with eye-catching gleam. Enhancer measures 1-3/4" long x 5/8" wide with a sterling silver snap hinge bail. Made in America with gemstones from around the world.
The perfect finishing touch for any style emerges from a medley of textured silver and bright gemstones. Silver sits atop each gemstone like a crown, lending each piece a regal silhouette. Shades of rosy pink, spring green, buttery yellow, periwinkle and black offer a vivid and versatile palette.
Like all fine jewelry, Carolyn Pollack Sterling Silver Jewelry should be handled carefully. Store jewelry in a plastic bag, dry and wrapped in tissue paper, when not being worn or displayed. Clean sterling silver with a silver polishing cloth when necessary, but never subject to chlorine, silver dips, chemical solutions or ultrasonic cleaners, as these substances can cause the genuine gemstones to discolor. Never wear jewelry in a swimming pool.

Arizona Dept of Health Services Division of Behavioral Health Services Encounter Tidbits Volume 2 No 4 May 2002 Encounter Tidbits is a monthly publication of the Arizona Department of Health Services, Division of Behavioral Health Services, Office of Program Support Services 2122 E Highland Ave., Suite 100 Phoenix AZ 85016 Tel: (602) 381-8991 fax: 602-553-9023 internet: www.hs.state.az.us/bhs IMPORTANT NEWS AHCCCS Claims Clues and Encounter Keys publications are available online at: www.ahcccs.state.az.us/publications. ADHS/DBHS Covered Services Guide available at www.hs.state.az.us/bhs/covserv.htm. Dementia Not A Disease Dementia is not the name of a disease, but it is a word to describe the mental condition of a person whose memory is impaired. This loss usually gets worse and gets in the way of normal daily activities. There are many different kinds of dementia with many different causes. Someone with dementia could have any of the following symptoms: memory loss, personality changes, and loss of problem-solving skills, communication problems, disorientation, and poor judgment. Conditions which may cause dementia include: Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, brain tumor, head trauma, multiple sclerosis. Those with dementia can have a wide range of problems and this may not support medical necessity of a covered benefit when used alone. For this reason, contractors have installed edits in their system. A transmittal was sent, effective September 1, 2001, that states contractors may not install edits that result in an automatic denial of services based solely on the diagnosis codes for dementia. _____________________________________ Top Monthly Edits – DBHS Pends These edits continue to reppended encounter problems. resent the majority of the 350 Number of Units is M rs will pend for F Invalid for Date of Service/S385 Service Units Exceedaximum Allowed Encounte edit F350/S385 when the billed unit amount exceeds that procedure code's maximum daily limit as defined in the AHCCCS PMMIS system (reference screen RF113) and the Covered Behavioral Health Services Guide. These units are calculated per recipient per date of service, not per provider or per encounter. P295 Service Provider Terminated During Service Date Span The RBHAs need to access PMMIS. Look at the screen PR070 (Provider Enrollment History) and check the provider for enrollment status. If everything is okay there, the RBHAs can then check PR015 (Provider Address). Scroll to the site address and then look at the begin and end date. The RBHAs should have the providers contact AHCCCS if there is a problem. R600 Medicare Coverage Indicated but Not Billed Encounters will pend because the TPL file indicates that the recipient has Medicare coverage but the claim has been submitted with the Medicare fields blank. If the TPL file indicates that a recipient has Medicare, claims for that recipient must be submitted with a dollar amount. If the service is not a Medicare covered service "0" must be entered in the Medicare fields. DBHS System Service Requests Update The following System Service Requests (SSR) were discussed at the May 9, 2002, ITS meeting. This enhancement was necessary to ensure that the data being reported to DBHS coincides with the AHCCCS system and minimizes the number of AHCCCS pends. Please ensure that these edits are added or updated in your system so they will process accordingly. SSR Changes Requested N96 UB-92 Ancillary Codes The following provider types are required to report ancillary codes on inpatient claims: 02, 71, B5 and B6. This edit will ensure that the appropriate providers are reporting ancillary revenue codes. N109 UB-92 First Line Revenue Codes Only revenue codes 11X, 12X, 13X, 15X and 18X are allowed on the 1st line of an inpatient UB-92 encounter. This edit will ensure that the first line revenue code being billed on inpatient claims is a valid accommodation code. N110 UB-92 Unit Validation Edit Add 15X revenue code to edit and valid bill types for patient status "20". The update to the edit includes validation of 15X revenue code for UB's & includes ADHS/DBHS Encounter Tidbits May 2002 - page 2 discharge bill type check when validating patient status 20.

This edit will restrict the use of diagnosis code 799.9 to be used only for transportation (Categories of Service 14 & 13) and Subvention (S-Code) encounters for DOS after 02/01/2002. (This is a correction from the spreadsheet that Kevin Gibson had sent out in May and has since been modified.) SSR Ready for Promotion N86 Unacceptable Ancillaries Prohibit use of 240 or 249 ancillary revenue codes.

Trainer Doug O'Neill, king of the Hollywood Gold Cup in recent years, shoots for his fifth victory since 2002 with Informed in the $700,000 Grade I handicap at 1 ¼ miles on Cushion Track Saturday.
"It would be great if we could do it again," said O'Neill from trackside Sunday morning alongside co-owner Mark Verge as they watched Informed work six furlongs in 1:13.40.
O'Neill, the runaway meet training leader with 31 wins, won the Gold Cup with Sky Jack in 2002 and sent out Lava Man to a three-peat from 2005-2007. With four Gold Cup wins, the 41-year-old trainer trails only the legendary Charlie Whittingham with eight.
Like Lava Man, Informed joined his barn through the claiming ranks, for $25,000 here in June, 2008, and posted his first stakes victory in the Grade II Californian here at 1 1/8 miles on June 13 under Tyler Baze.
"It doesn't seem like the extra distance will bother him," said O'Neill of the 5-year-old son of Tiznow racing beyond nine furlongs for the first time in his career. "The biggest thing is getting a good trip, and he got a real good ride last time from Tyler."
Baze, who rode Informed for the first time in The Californian, won the Gold Cup last year in a wire-to-wire upset aboard Mast Track and has taken a call to ride Informed back in the Gold Cup.
A field of 13 is probable: Informed (Baze), Californian runners-up Rail Trip (Jose Valdivia, Jr.), Dakota Phone (Rafael Bejarano), Song of Navarone (Victor Espinoza) and Awesome Gem (Alex Solis), Eastern invaders Parading (Kent Desormeaux) and Bullsbay, the Bobby Frankel-trained duo of Mast Track (David Flores) and Champs Elysees, Big Booster (Joel Rosario), Magnum (Martin Pedroza) and Tres Borrachos (Joseph Talamo) and multiple stakes-winning filly Life Is Sweet (Garrett Gomez).
Big Booster, an 8-year-old gelding, will make his third Gold Cup start for trainer Mike Mitchell after finishing third in 2007 and fifth last year.
Parading, who was shipped here Monday from Belmont Park by trainer Shug McGaughey, worked five furlongs in 1:03.40 with assistant Jennifer Patterson. The 6-year-old horse seeks his third straight graded stakes victory.
Bullsbay, fourth-place finisher in the Stephen Foster Handicap at Churchill Downs on June 13, is scheduled to be flown west Tuesday from trainer Graham Motion's Fair Hills, Md., base.
Life Is Sweet seeks to become the first female to win the Gold Cup since Princessnesian in 1968.
Tuscan Evening worked six furlongs on turf in a bullet 1:13 Sunday under the watchful eye of trainer Jerry Hollendorfer for the $250,000 Royal Heroine Mile, a Grade II test for fillies and mares on grass Saturday.
Tuscan Evening, an Irish-bred 4-year-old filly who finished second in the Irish 1000 Guineas last year, has won four of five starts in the United States, including the Redondo Beach Stakes in her last outing here on June 6. Rafael Bejarano has the call back.
Other probable starters include Gamely Stakes runner-up Visit (Brice Blanc), Gotta Have Her (Tyler Baze), Allicansayiswow (Joseph Talamo), Patricia's Gem (Victor Espinoza), Meydan Princess (David Flores) and Zardana (Joel Rosario).
New York-based trainer Christophe Clement informed the racing office that he would probably ship one of three nominees: Carribean Sunset, Rutherienne or Lindelaan.
Trainer Doug O'Neill said Sunday that he planned to enter both Willard Proctor Memorial Stakes winner Classical Slew and filly Necessary Evil in the $100,000 Hollywood Juvenile Championship, a Grade III test for 2-year-olds at six furlongs on Cushion Track next Sunday.
O'Neill won the race last year with the Joseph LaCombe Stable's homebred Azul Leon. The LaCombe Stable also owns homebred Classical Slew, unbeaten in two starts. The Bernstein colt will be ridden by Garrett Gomez.
Necessary Evil made a spectacular debut, winning a five-furlong maiden race here May 31 in track-record time of 56.68 seconds under Joel Rosario, who retains the mount.
Necessary Evil, a daughter of Harlan's Holiday, worked five furlongs in 1:02.60 Sunday. She seeks to become the first filly to win the Hollywood Juvenile since champion Althea in 1983.
Other probable starters include Zip Quik (Joseph Talamo) and Really Uptown (Victor Espinoza).
Unbeaten Well Deserved, a gutsy winner of the Cinderella Stakes in her last start June 11, seeks her third straight victory in the $100,000 Landaluce Stakes, meet championship for 2-year-old fillies at six furlongs on Cushion Track next Sunday.
"She had worked very fast when we bought her at Barretts," said trainer David Hofmans Sunday of the Cactus Ridge filly purchased in March for $100,000 for owner Marc Ferrell. "But she has developed well and learned how to relax. I'm not sure that she needs to be on the lead."
Well Deserved will be ridden back by Joel Rosario. Other probable starters include Ballistic Sue (Tyler Baze), Repo (Corey Nakatani), Washington invader Feeling Fancy (David Flores) and one of two promising maidens from the Eric Guillot stable, Champagne d'Oro or Mi Sueno.
Jockey Joel Rosario, shooting for his first riding title in the United States, opened a 67-59 lead over defending champion Rafael Bejarano with nine days left in the meet following a quintet Saturday.
"Eight up with 81 races to go," said agent Vic Stauffer Sunday morning. "I think it's 50-50. The other guy (Bejarano) can win races in bunches." Bejarano has won every major meet in Southern California, six altogether, since beginning to ride here regularly before the 2007-2008 meet at Santa Anita.
Bejarano and Rosario are both ahead of their pace at this meet last year, when Bejarano won 56 races and Rosario finished second with 45.
"Some people say winning titles isn't important but it would mean the world to us," said Stauffer of the 24-year-old native of the Dominican Republic. "When you call a trainer in the East and tell him you're third in the standings behind Bejarano and (Garrett) Gomez, that's all well and good, but when you tell him you're the leading rider at Hollywood Park, that makes all the difference in the world.
"We're going to leave no stone unturned," said Stauffer of the final two weeks of the meet. "You don't know when you'll get another chance like this."
FINISH LINES — Jockeys Mike Smith and Michael Baze will travel to Florida for Summit of Speed stakes at Calder Saturday. Smith will ride champion Indian Blessing for trainer Bob Baffert in the $350,000 Princess Rooney Handicap. Baze will ride a pair for Ron Ellis: Truest Legend in the $200,000 Carry Back Stakes, and Ron Bob and Dave in the $150,000 Bob Umphrey Turf Sprint. The latter worked five furlongs on turf in 1:00.60 under Baze Sunday…Trainer Jerry Hollendorfer worked 3-year-old stakes winner Chocolate Candy on the turf for the first time, breezing four furlongs in :49.80. "Most of the Del Mar 3-year-old stakes are on turf, so I thought I would like to try it," explained Hollendorfer…Trainer David Hofmans was excited about his first Smarty Jones colt, I'll Show Them, who remained unbeaten in two starts with an impressive allowance score at a mile on turf here. "The Oceanside or La Jolla will be next at Del Mar," said Hofmans of the 3-year-old. "He's a big strong monster of a horse. He reminds me of Dramatic Gold." …Lexington Stakes runner-up Conservative, shipped here from New York by Shug McGaughey for the $300,000 Swaps Stakes July 18, breezed four furlongs in :48.40… Agent Richie Silverstein is taking calls for Corey Nakatani as a pinch-hitter for Bob Meldahl, who is hospitalized with a bone infection in his foot.

Price Value Quality
The Benchmade 916 Triage comes with a BESH Wedge, which really performs when called upon.

- Emergency folding knife Review by Jameson
Value Quality Price
My first benchmade. The knife was packaged very well. The blade is razor sharp out of the box. It almost has a chisel like grind which is similar to razor blades. Axis lock is smooth but I have some concern on its lockup strength, being my first benchmade only time will tell. Safety cutter is sharp as well but has little retention when open. Glass breaker looks like it will do the job. The main blade and safety cutter are made from different steels. The main blade is made from N680 and the cutter is 440c.
Overall I'm satisfied with this blade. Multipule uses for EDC or emergencies.
