Legendary Chicago Cubs infielder Ernie Banks made the famous saying, "It's a beautiful day for a ballgame … let's play two."
So that's just what the Chicago White Sox and Los Angeles Angels did on Tuesday. The Angels took both games from the White Sox, 8-4 and 7-5.
Game 1: Angels – 8, White Sox – 4
In game one, Hector Noesi pitched fairly solid in the first four innings of the game, except for one thing: Walks. In five innings of work, Noesi struck out seven, but walked seven Angels, including three just in the third inning.
Los Angeles took control in the fifth inning thanks to back-to-back home runs from Mike Trout and Albert Pujols. All eight Angel runs were scored between the fifth and ninth innings.
Noesi was the first White Sox pitcher to walk seven and strike out seven hitters since 2000, when Cal Eldred(!) did it in a game.
Jose Abreu knocked his league-leading 26th home run in the first inning to give the White Sox a 3-0 lead. Abreu tied Baltimore's Nelson Cruz for the league lead in home runs and runs batted in (67). With the home run, Abreu extended his hitting streak to 15 games.
With his first inning HR, Jose Abreu, in only his 70th game, is now tied for 100th on #WhiteSox career HR list with 26

Game 2: Angels – 7, White Sox – 5
During the nightcap at U.S. Cellular Field, the White Sox pitching staff once again could not get back on track in a 7-5 loss. Between starter Scott Carroll, Jake Petricka and Javy Guerra, Sox pitching walked six Angels.
#WhiteSox pitching had a major-league leading 310 walks at start of double header. Stands at 322 as of now.
— Dan Hayes (@DanHayesCSN) July 2, 2014
In his six innings of work, Scott Carroll gave up seven runs (all earned) on 10 hits, walked three and struck out two on 91 pitches (57 strikes).
With another first-inning hit, Jose Abreu extended his hitting streak to 16 games on a questionable infield single to third base.
Oddly enough, seven of the nine White Sox hits in game two came from the 5-9 spots in the lineup, including Conor Gillaspie's first home run of the season in 243 at-bats.
The White Sox and Angels conclude their 2014 series of games on Wednesday night in Chicago. John Danks will take the mound for the Sox, as they try to win their first game against the Halos this season (0-5 including Tuesday's losses). Los Angeles will send left-hander Tyler Skaggs to the hill, fresh from a stint on the disabled list. First pitch is scheduled for 7:10 CT.
White Sox Notes:
- In 39 starts, right-handed pitching for the Sox have racked up a 6.28 ERA. The lowest ERA for a White Sox right-handed starter? Hector Noesi with a 4.52 ERA.
- Per nine innings, White Sox pitching is averaging 3.86 BB's. In two losses on Tuesday, the Sox walked 13 hitters. Is that bad?
- Tim Anderson, the White Sox top pick in the 2013 First-Year Player Draft and the No. 3 prospect in the Sox organization, will miss the next four to six weeks with a fracture in his right wrist.

Struggling to get back in action after a heart attack? Click here to learn more about follow-up cardiac care at NCH.
As wake-up calls go, nothing takes center stage like a heart attack. Each year, about 715,000 Americans have a heart attack, and of those, 525,000 are first-time heart attacks.
Here's the good news: Most heart attack survivors enjoy many more years of normal life. Paul Ruzumna, MD, FACC, chief of cardiology at Northwest Community Healthcare, offers four post-heart-attack tips to help you walk the road to recovery.
Activity – That part about "walking" the road to recovery? Dr. Ruzumna isn't kidding. "In many cases, doctors will recommend that heart attack survivors get more physical activity than before their heart attack," he says. While rest is advisable—Dr. Ruzumna says it takes the heart muscle about eight weeks to heal—exercise will help lower stress and control weight, blood pressure and cholesterol.
Balance – "At first, every twinge in the chest triggers fear," according to Dr. Ruzumna, "and that's understandable." But it's important to find balance—and to tell your doctor if anxiety or depression lingers. "There's a balance between patients becoming more aware of their bodies and feeling fear that anything in the chest is another heart attack," he says.
Take heart in knowing this: Most patients avoid repeat heart attacks by making lifestyle changes and taking medications to lower risk factors, Dr. Ruzumna says.
Cardiac rehab – Studies show that cardiac rehabilitation saves lives. In NCH's cardiac rehab program, patients exercise in a supervised setting. "With supervised exercise, patients regain confidence in being able to push themselves—to work up a sweat—without causing another heart attack," Dr. Ruzumna says.
Diet – Dietary changes can help control weight and lower blood pressure and cholesterol. Through programs such as cardiac rehab, Dr. Ruzumna encourages patients to set long-term diet and weight-management goals. "Recovery from a heart attack is a marathon, not a sprint. The good news is, most people return to a very normal life after a heart attack. In some cases, it's a healthier life with a better diet and more activity than before."

Calcium Carbide testing and Silicates
RE: Calcium Carbide testing and Silicates
Obviously I know temperature affects relative humidity as temperature is one factor of the product. For this reason we test at service conditions. Testing outside of these conditions gives us a less accurate reading and now we have a failure to follow specifications.
Puncturing the vapor retarder is also a failure to follow specifications. However, a punctured vapor retarder is not as big a problem as some believe. Suprenant proved this through laboratory testing and published an article about it. In my own work I have also found this to be true, and my engineers, architects and I modified the installation specs for vapor retarders under our slabs because of our testing results. We could do this because WE held the full warranty for life.
I am not saying I am better than you, what I am saying is it is quite amazing how you have stumbled upon the greatest products in the industry in four short years. Your admix solves all concrete problems in one little bottle. Your coatings are better than anyone's.
While the rest of the planet struggles with problems, one guy in the Midwest has all the answers, but no industry leaders will listen to him. Hmmmm either the entire industry is ignorant and out to stick facility owners with problems or that one guy in the Midwest is maybe a bit on the wacky side.
In that way we are much alike. I also believe I have the answers. My answers cost nothing but some work, in fact they save a lot of money!
Use a proper vapor retarder directly under the slab (no blotter layer).
Pour a well graded concrete mix (high strength /less cement).
Limit the amount of water not just W/C ratio (you can limit cement also).
Finish the concrete so it is left porous and breathes.
Cure the concrete with water for 3 days only.
Eliminate re-wetting.
Promote drying with airflow and low humidity.
Test the slab using Wagner Rapid RH probes.
Glue directly to the concrete and enjoy.
My company did this again and again and again, but we controlled all aspects of the construction.
Trying to bring groups of trades together, each with their own agenda, for one common cause is much more difficult, but I have had some success. For the few times a mitigation system is required, we can install one for $2/sf.

Sparkle, Sparkle – apart from being a drool worthy aisle design idea, it is a colour scheme too! For a Friday with some extra added sparkle – we have all kinds of love for this! Although, we think it would end up in crevices, nooks and crannies that you don't need to hear fully described on a blog, although we'd love this in our bedroom too, maybe it would be taking an idea a touch too far.

If ever there were a day for decadent and bold imagery then it would be sweet freedom day we love this Femme Fatale image that we discovered while meandering around the internet. Geisha girl make up and thrown in some over the top but utterly beautiful couture and we've got visual magic… we want to see a wedding where a bride is adorned with that dress.

We hope that your minds are as blown as ours by this incredible image from Tim Walker, this incredible image is part of the Storyteller exhibition at Somerset House. Pink Clouds and Stella Tennant; this image is utterly divine lovers!

Time to kiss your eyes with some Crimson and an utterly stunning image of Marion Cotillard; we are also dying over the dress that our girl crush is rocking. And, if this stunning image is not enough to tell you why we have to love her… throw in the fact that she is an Absolutely Fabulous fan, all she needs to do is fart Chanel No. 5 and we'll marry her.
Well, we will marry her anyway! The stunning image was shot by Ben Hassett for Harper's Bazaar, and the full shoot can be seen in the December edition which is out now!

Topics: Insurance, Medicaid, Medicare, Politics, Health Reform
Mar 01, 2010
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is planning to start debate Monday on a bill that would extend COBRA health coverage benefit subsidies for people who have been laid-off. The measure, part of a larger package of expired government programs, also would help states with Medicaid reimbursements.
CongressDaily: The 254-page, $150 billion bill would extend COBRA assistance through the end of the year and give states and extra six months of Medicaid assistance. The two provisions "are designated as emergency spending and exempt from pay/go rules" designed to keep the deficit under control. As senators debate "unemployment and COBRA benefits will have lapsed, some satellite television signals will have gone dark and Medicare physician payments will have been cut, as all of those programs expired Sunday at midnight. Sen. Jim Bunning, R-Ky., blocked consideration of a 30-day extension bill last week, arguing it adds $10 billion to the deficit — which may foretell how he and other Republicans will react to $100 billion in unoffset spending." (Cohn and Goode, 3/1).

Hotels in York, United Kingdom - your base to discover the city.
York HotelsThe city of York has a rich history stretching back over the last 2,000 years, and from Vikings to Victorians, the area has played a big part in English history. It's a charming and cultural city which is extremely proud of its heritage, and many of the oldest buildings are very well-preserved and open for tourists to explore. If you're a history buff then just wandering around the narrow streets and balancing on the cobblestones will no doubt make you feel like you've stepped back in time. Things to seeYork Minster stands grandly above the city, with intricate gothic architecture that dates as far back as the 12th century. Inside it's bright and spacious, with high white ceilings and gold accents, and you can wander around and marvel at the stone arches and colorful stained glass windows. The Shambles is a narrow, winding street with timber framed buildings dating back to the 14th century. Many of these buildings used to be butcher shops, with old artifacts still hanging in the windows, but they have mainly been converted into cozy restaurants, and boutique stores. The University of York is spread over many campuses, and one of the oldest is King's Manor which dates back to Tudor times with big iron gates and a dramatic exterior. There are private tours available during quieter periods such as the summer, and you can enjoy sitting in the quadrangle to escape from the bustle of the city. You can learn about the earliest days of the city at the Jorvik Viking Centre which recreates what life was like for these early settlers. Sitting in your own 'time capsule', you'll be taken around a Viking village and can see homes being built, battles being fought, and everyday trades being carried out. Hotels in YorkIf you want to appreciate the history of the area then staying in a boutique York hotel allows you to enjoy the amazing architecture of the city. The grand 3 and 4 star accommodation close to the city has features such as spas, indoor pools, fitness centers, and restaurants. Those on business will also find useful extras such as business centers, conference facilities, and free WiFi. Many guestrooms are individually designed and feature plenty of home comforts, and you can enjoy amenities such as 24 hour room service, Egyptian cotton sheets, LCD televisions, complimentary toiletries, combined shower and tubs, and hair dryers. Where to stayYork's city center is charming and historic, with narrow lanes and cobbled streets full of locally run stores. The city runs along the River Ouse, with plenty of cozy cafés and pubs overlooking the water, and tour boats allowing visitors to get a new perspective on the area. The center also has plenty of shops, with historic streets turned into pedestrianized shopping areas, yet still keeping the architectural beauty intact. With many pubs and bars in a relatively small area, there's a lively nightlife scene, and there are many popular music venues with local and international bands playing throughout the year. How to get to YorkLeeds Bradford International Airport is the closest hub to York, and there are flights arriving from across the UK and Europe on a regular basis. The city is about a 50 minute drive away, and you can pick up a rental car or take a cab to your hotel. You can also take the shuttle to Leeds city center and then take a train on to York. Manchester Airport is about 80 miles away, but has the advantage of a direct rail route which takes under 2 hours and is fast and reliable. York Railway Station is close to the center and has the advantage of being mid-way on the London to Edinburgh line, meaning it's fast and easy to get here from across the UK.

Don't skip any of them! The first season is the closest to the book that is true, but don't skip any of them. Especially if you want to gain insight into the history and the characters.
There is so much in that first book, the majority of the R+L=J theory comes from Eddard's POV chapters. Plus you get insight into the actual characters, there is so much history. You realize how quickly GRRM foreshadowed Ned's death. Dany has a lot of important prophetic dreams.
Don't skip any books. Don't skip any chapters (even the POVs that bore you) it's all very important!

Dearest Healers,
As we look deeper into the light, we find again and again peace, tranquility, and the greatest asset – healing with hope – once you open your eyes to the fundamental nature of the light, and the universe you live in, and your extraordinary relationships – pledge today that, knowing everything is impermanent, you will heal in a lasting and stable way, and all things at all times seen and understood, in their true relationship, under the direct glance of the Masters, Lord Ganesha, Laxmiji and Narayan.
Connect to the energies of this auspicious Diwali, connecting to the universe, the other realms, all interconnected – in all the realms, a vast net, woven of a countless variety of brilliant jewels, each spraying the light into our realm through the countless facets, each jewel reflecting in itself all the universes and every other jewel of the net helping us on this day, through the act of healing to connect to every jewel. Connect to a wave of light, and connect to the constantly changing circumstances – but still realize that we are related to everything and every wave of light touches us completely.
Connect and feel your karmic kumbh filling up with the liquid gold waves, directed to you through the Grace of the Masters and all in the moment to subtly change you.
As you fill completely, allow all the other empty spaces of the universe to fill up – see a glittering net unfold across the universe – just like the jewels in the net – all full of the different combinations of the light.
Today as we look at ourselves, and all around us, everything is solid, gold and stable and completely lasting.
Open up, enjoy, have compassion and see the inter dependence of all things, including ourselves and see the world revealed in a brighter, fresher, more sparkling light.
Be loving and compassionate this year – always healing – no matter what others do – have hope, positive intention and true spirituality in all your actions - heal forever –
With Blessings, Healing, Protection and Hugs.
Happy Diwali!

Here we go again...This one's a little bit later because I'm too busy earlier in the month. Arrive in the same old car park (see link below) with your tank full of fuel 10am onwards, with an estimated departure time of 10:30am, for a day's adventure down some fast and twisty roads. http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=d&hl=en&geocode=&saddr=51.867461,-0.536825&daddr=&mra=dme&mrcr=0&mrsp=0&sz=19&sll=51.867452,-0.536951&sspn=0.001183,0.00235&ie=UTF8&t=h&z=19Cornerman system will be used, as always. Below is a simple explanation for all those unsure what this means.1. Lead rider (me) heads the group. Do not pass unless you decide you're leaving the ride.2. Tail gunner (any volunteers?) is always at the back. Always stay in front of this rider.3. If you are immediately behind the lead rider, and we cross a junction, stop to mark the corner if indicated to, or if you think it would be helpful to do so (it's never wrong to mark junction). Wait until the tail gunner arrives, and ride off ahead of them. DO NOT move until they reach you, no matter how long you are waiting!4. If the lead rider stops to mark a corner (probably because he has no one behind him at the time) and you are the first rider to catch up, stop to take his place until the tail gunner arrives for you.5. If there are no corner markers at a junction, assume to follow the road. Sometimes markers aren't needed if it is obvious.6. MOST IMPORTANT: Ride at your own pace within the front and rear riders. The marker system will ensure you know where to go, without having to race to keep up, so you can stay safe.See you there!

NBC at TCAs: Fourth place and counting!
Whatever happened to Must-See TV? In this DVR-reliant digital age, plenty of television executives are wondering exactly that. "It's been a very challenging six months for us. It's no secret that NBC is in fourth place," announced new network chair Robert Greenblatt at NBC's TCA press tour this week in Beverly Hills. No secret indeed, as even the Peacock's own late-night hosts and comedy actors have taken open digs at the channel since its decline in recent seasons.Read More

Geno Auriemma coaches his 1,000th game at UConn on Feb. 22 at Houston. To commemorate the milestone, the Hartford Courant will occasionally publish a memory or remembrance of the Hall of Fame coach from someone who helped play a role in his journey.
Mel Thomas was one of the greatest three-point shooters in UConn history, an incredibly hard-nosed player who fit perfectly into Geno Auriemma's plans during her career (2004-08). There was no more heartbreaking end of a career than the one she experienced at Syracuse in January of her senior year when she injured her knee. That kept her from playing in what would have been her first and only Final Four.
"It is hard to put into words how thankful I am for how much Coach has influenced my life. My journey at UConn definitely started with some tough love. I remember the ups and downs of my freshman year and all the incredibly sweet things he said to me, "I used to have Sue Bird and Diana Taurasi and now I have YOU!", "You are the worst player I've ever coached", and "You can't guard a chair". However, no matter how tough he was, I knew how much he cared about me as a person," Thomas said. "I'll never forget the times he was there for me to offer support and believe in me, even after I graduated. He has always been there and I know he always will be in the future.
"Coach has achieved so much in his career but none of his accomplishments have ever been about him. He brings out the best in his players and makes us not only better on the court, but more importantly, better people. It's much more than just basketball at UConn – the importance of relationships, believing in one another, and being part of something that is bigger than yourself. He has created something so special that everyone who has played always comes back. This is a testament to the type of person Coach is and the family he has created at UConn. I am so grateful for my experience and that I continue to be a part of it."

The Houston Astros don't win many games. When they have the chance to win games, their bullpen has blown it. The one or two times a week the Astros do decide to play well, their bullpen decides not too. It's not a great recipe for success.
There is no secret the Astros need help in their bullpen. Injuries have carved up what was supposed to be a solid bullpen. Matt Albers has a 0.90 ERA in 10 innings this season, but he will be missing the next 3-4 weeks while he recovers from tendinitis. Anthony Bass, who is tied for the team lead with two saves, also just went down with a strained intercostal muscle and he was just placed on the 15-day DL. Jose Cisnero was cut to just 4.2 innings as he will undergo Tommy John surgery next week. Jesse Crain has yet to throw a pitch this season.
Other younger pitchers haven't performed as well as expected. Josh Fields has a 12.00 ERA in 12 innings, and was only recently called back up due to a lack of bullpen arms. Lefties Kevin Chapman and Raul Valdes each had a 12.27 ERA in 3.2 innings earlier this season and they are no longer on the 25-man roster. Paul Clemens and Josh Zeid have been less than spectacular so far this season.The good news is that the Astros seemed to have found their lefties out of the bullpen. Darin Downs has yet to give up a run in 3.1 innings in the LOOGY role. Another lefty has had an outstanding start to his Astros career and that is none other than Tony Sipp. Exactly who you thought I was going to say, right?
Sipp has been PERFECT through 5.2 innings. Yep, PERFECT. He has allowed zero hits, zero runs, and zero walks, while striking out 10 batters. He has been relied on lately and has come through each and every time.
Sipp isn't your prototypical closer, but at this point there is no reason not to try him out. He gets out. No other Astros reliever has had the success he has. May as well see what he can do in the ninth inning. It can't hurt.
It seems like Astros fans on Twitter would agree with the move.
Is @SippTony the greatest pitcher of all time? I think so. #Astros #Sipp4CY

If you would like to follow the greatest reliever snice Mariano Rivera, you can follow Tony Sipp here ——-> @SippTony #Astros

Maine's Best Doctors and Hospitals
Patients have a critical stake in the outcomes of care that they receive.
Despite known, proven, freely available information on how to provide many healthcare services, safely and effectively, many doctors and hospitals have not made the commitment to employ systems that significantly increase the chance that every patient gets the kind of care experts recommend.
This results in dangerous gaps between the healthcare people should get and what they actually do get—especially in the treatment of chronic conditions that affect millions such as asthma, diabetes and heart disease.
Since providing access to the best quality healthcare providers is in the best interest to members of the University of Maine System community, the Employee Health Plan Task Force is encouraging the use those doctors and hospitals who have proven that they provide care more effectively than the average healthcare provider.
Is Your Doctor and/or Hospital rated GOOD, BETTER, or BEST? Wouldn't you like to know BEFORE you need care? Visit www.getbettermaine.org to find ratings for your provider.

Words from Yasiin Bey (Mos Def)
Another "Mos" interview I came across discussing music.
How do you feel about the global takeover?
It is great, especially since there was no intention or ambition like this from the core group. They started it, enjoyed it, cultivated it with no ambition to dominate the world. It was an expression for us by us. And now everybody is doing it. However, growth has positives but it also has its challenges. Growth has to be managed. Like any other resource it can also be mismanaged or it can manage the people that have it. The better it gets, the better it needs to be. It is good to grow but you have to be mindful. Don't just grow for the growth's sake.

In 1960, Floyd Farley and Randy Heckenkemper's vision for the LaFortune Park Golf Course facility's championship course came to fruition, bringing to life a picturesque design of rolling bermuda-grass fairways unfurling in front of bentgrass greens guarded by bunkers. Heckenkemper recently returned to renovate the links' water hazards and grassy contours, which contribute to a layout that's both unique and challenging enough to earn the title of Tulsa's Best Golf Course from Urban Tulsa Weekly, an award that even Meryl Streep hasn't won.
The same deciduous trees that shade the championship course's greens also thrive at LaFortune's 18-hole executive course, whose shorter fairways save time for postround drinks or lunch at the club's North Dining Room. Even when the sun is vacationing in the Andromeda galaxy, golfers can still play through the par 3 layout thanks to the course's ample lighting, which illuminates the streams that split seven fairways and demand strong carries from golfers, and the tricky bentgrass greens, most of which are hemmed by bunkers.
Before embarking on 18-hole outings or whacking balls from one of 80 hitting stations on the driving range, golfers can gear up at the golf shop. Named one of America's 100 Best Clubfitters by Golf Digest, the shop's team of experts includes Callaway, Titleist, and Ping specialists and a repair technician with more than two decades of experience in mending putters gnawed on by nervous caddies. To perfect their swings, players can attend lessons run by PGA teaching professionals that rely on a vector launch monitor and V1 digital coaching software to improve students' form.
Championship Course at a Glance: * 18-hole, par 72 course * Course rating of 73.9 * Slope rating of 124 * Total length of 6,938 yards from the back tees * Four tee options * See the scorecard
Executive Course at a Glance: * 18-hole, par 3 course * Total length of 2,461 yards * See the scorecard
Entering their 85th season, the Harlem Globetrotters have entertained millions of parents, children, and general basketball admirers with a unique brand of athletic precision and showmanship. For their latest "4 Times the Fun" North American tour, the Globetrotters will add a new 4-point shot spots located 35 feet from the basket, which is 12 feet further than the official three-point line but several thousand miles closer than the prime meridian. See the arch-nemesis Generals try to keep up as the Harlem hardwood sorcerers evade gravity's oppressive clutches and court clairvoyants distribute unassailable alley-oops. Youngsters can learn about the benefits of teamwork while laughing along with the jovial jocks as they perform classic routines of unconventional passing and sudden transmutations of water into confetti.
Since its founding 75 years ago in a graceful 1920s mansion, Philbrook Museum of Art has grown to become one of the preeminent art museums of the central United States. The cornerstone of its permanent collection is its wide-ranging survey of Native American art, from traditional basketry to 20th-century paintings. Other highlights include Renaissance and Baroque paintings from the Kress Foundation and an American art collection including 15 paintings by Andrew Wyeth.
Outside, the museum's 23 acres of grounds includes a lush garden whose trails run alongside native Oklahoma plants and plants that relocated to Oklahoma after college. An architectural addition features an auditorium, restaurant, library, and education studios, many of which host the Philbrook's interactive, enlightening programs and events. In the summer, these include daytime art camps for six- to 12-year-olds and a nighttime film series that screens features in the garden. The Philbrook's growing modern and contemporary art collections can be found at a satellite campus in downtown Tulsa, which also contains the Eugene B. Adkins Collection and Study Center of Native American Art.
What began in 1965 as a traveling exhibit from the Jewish Museum in New York transformed into a permanent space for art pieces that encompass various aspects of Jewish life. The museum now bears the name of its first curator, Tulsa native Sherwin Miller, whose dedication to Judaism and art embodies the museum's mission to "preserve and share the legacy of Jewish art, history and culture."
To cultivate its educational environment, The Sherwin Miller Museum of Jewish Art maintains permanent collections such as the Jewish History and Culture exhibition, in which visitors can peruse fine art in the form of brilliantly colored tapestries by Israeli artist Reuven Rubin and archeological artifacts from the Middle Bronze Age through the Iron Age. Other displays include the Kaiser Holocaust Exhibition on the first floor and the Oklahoma Jewish Experience, which tells the stories of immigrants and showcases memorabilia from Oklahoma synagogues and families. In addition to its collections, the museum also showcases rotating exhibits of visiting works of art and seasonal educational displays with craft projects geared toward specific holidays.
Safety comes first at New Heights Rock Climbing Gym. Before strapping in at the gym's top-rope climbing course, all guests have to complete a training lesson that teaches them the skills needed to safely surmount the gym's walls. Students learn how to tie weight-bearing knots, help friends safely ascend and descend the walls using belaying techniques, and recognize the difference between rocks and Styrofoam coolers that just look like rocks. Once instructors deem them ready, students can then latch onto the colorful rocks sprinkled throughout the climbing space, using their upper-arm strength and path-finding skills to surmount the vertical obstacle course. The angled bouldering course rises over padded mats, allowing guests to safely climb the inclines while working against gravity pulling down their own body weight. The gym opens its doors to parties of all sizes, with one designated instructor for every eight partygoers to ensure climbers stay safe and agile.
Students at Dance Dynamics, a registered member of the Canadian Dance Federation, may recognize the director, Herb Clarke. The veteran dance teacher and Dance Saskatchewan board of directors member has starred in his own teaching series on Shaw Cable and has appeared alongside Juliet Prowse on PBS's Championship Ballroom Dancing. He harnesses his fleet-footed expertise and choreography experience to lead students of all skill levels through lessons in a variety of dance styles, such as rumba, salsa, swing, and waltz. In doing so, Clarke and his teaching staff help students reap the benefits of dance, such as stress relief, weight loss, and the ability to summon Fred Astaire by whispering his name into a candlelit mirror.

i know slick trick claim 4 blades have more cutting surface, but i see walmart sells mx 3's for 20 bucks but no mx 4's. is there really any difference or is it all marketing hype?
4 blades would have more cutting surface, but, they would also have more surface area that needs to get through the hide before it can start doing damage.
One other thing I have noticed in shooting broadheads, the fewer the blades, the better the blood trail. While Slick Tricks have always punched a pretty good sized hole for me, a 3 blade like Wasp/Muzzy or Shuttle T's tend to leave a little bigger hole. The hide on an animal tends to gap open more the fewer slices that are put into it. I think the only exception to that is with heads like Magnus, Phat Heads, etc., that have the small bleeder blades. They cut a wider slice with the main blade, and still gape open very well.
I have found with the muzzy's that the 3 blade is a bit easier to tune than the 4 blade MX's. Just personal experience, your mileage might vary.
Bye the way, Peace, my first target weight recurve was a Bear Tigercat, another bow I regret trading. :)
slick tricks may be the problem im having trying to tune then? bout four inches off at 20.
I've always had good flight from Slick Tricks. Are you sure there's no wobble at all when you spin them? I used to roll(spin) check mine, but didn't always see when there was just a very slight wobble. Once I started spinning them as they hung from a strong magnet, it made a differene. You can feel any wobble at all. Even got some that I an feel wobble in, but it's not enough to affect their flight.
First we have to start arrows that are spined properly for the bow's draw weight and draw length, and arrow length. This is where tuning comes into play. Arrows that are underspined are going to be real trouble, flying all over the place. Arrows that are too stiff will be better, but tend to shoot larger groups as the distance increases. Simple tuning procedures, including adjusting the bow's draw weight can improve flight. Don't get caught up in having to shoot a bow at a givn draw weght. Those limb bolts can be your best friend.
It's best to build your own arrows and careful attention to details is what it's all about. Such things as squaring the end of the inserts can help. I honestly think that because carbon arrows have a seam the spine can vary around the shaft creating havoc with broadhead flight as the arrow do bend coming out of the bow, If the seam (stiff side) isn't aligned consistently from shaft to shaft arrow flight can vary. The best ways to find the stiff side is to use a spine tester or float the shafts in a bath tub. How many guys do this? Nock fit on the string is one that very few people pay any attention to. If nocks are too tight it affects arrow flight, even with field points.
How many guys actually spin test their shafts? This should be done prior to arrow assembly and then checked afterwards. It's no secret that carbon arrows are not always straight. There are almost always a few in a dozen that need to be culled out of the batch because of inconsistencies in straightness and need to be removed from the good ones. Then there is spinning after assembly to ensure the broadhead is aligned with the shaft. It's not important that broadheads align with the fletching, but for consistency I like to have them all oriented to the same position. Just for this reason I do not use any of the super glues to install inserts. I like to use 24 hr epoxy so that I have time to align the blades after fletching the shafts.
Then, of course, there's the question of 3 blades, vs 4 blades. From experience I've found that it's easier to get 3 blades tuned than most 4 bladed heads. Cutting diameter plays a roll. The less surface area the easier it gets. That, for me, means a broadhead less than 1/1/4" diameter. A big 2" hole in the wrong place doesn't do much good.
So in conclusion, it's all these attentions to the little details that one must consider and be learned over time. Just how much a person wants to learn and excel is a personal matter.
I think the rise in mech. broadheads is related alot to people not being willing to spend some time tuning their bows. I start with a bare shaft tune and progress through a walk back tune and have no trouble getting either the Muzzy MX4 or my Magnus Buzzcut 4's tuning on two different bows. What I have found is the Muzzy's tend to not tune well if your spine is too stiff. Shoot 400 GoldTips with the Muzzy and 340 Axis arrows with the Buzzcuts. Both bows are in the 48-52lb range with 29" draw and arrows cut to 29"
I'm reading allot of you prefer the 3 over the 4 blade. This is just my experience; I've changer from the 3 blade WASP to the Slick Trick Mag 100g and the Razor Trick 100g. What a difference on Elk and South west Mule Deer. If your bow is timed and tuned the broad-head needs little to no adjustment. I just harvested a Mule Deer with a Razor Trick 100g and the shot was spot on @ 80 yards and the Deer went 15 yards. The shot went though the liver then the shoulder on exit. What a blood trail. I've harvested severely Elk and Deer over the last few years with Slick Trick and all of them were great exit holes and blood trails. For me this works, but you need to have your set up spot on. With the Razor you can see were the slice marks are, plus it a cut on contact.

You forgot the armoury link :P
Hello all,
I have recently become a father to a gorgeous son , and for last 2 months I've fell away from WOW.
My real life friend Azerundith and I have run The Purdgerors in Shattered Halls for over 3 years. Guild is full of Older players and we all do well.
My question is this :-
Ive played a Warrior Tank for over 2.5 years because Guild needed a Tank, and I suppose I kinda play on Auto Pilot sometimes as the button clicks are all muscle memory.
Lately though, people are telling me that Ulduar is this and that, hard , 5 times more than Naxx etc...obviously I've not tried Ulduar yet due to recent fatherhood.
What I'm asking Is... could a few of you logical minded , Warrior Tank Master Professor's, have a browse of Caramon and tell me what you see. Looking for constructive disection of Warrior Tree and Gear etc ..I have loads also stuffed away in my Backpack, Epic etc .
I have always used Tankpoints as my general guide, and use mainly button clicks rather than Macros, suppose I use The Force. )
I'm maybe a creature of habit to an extent , but always open for debate, new ideas and criticism.
Thank you
Jason 35 Scotland
You forgot the armoury link :P
Ah, Old age doesnt come cheap. Apologies.
The World of Warcraft Armory or is this better ? Caramon <THE PURDGERORS> Shattered Halls
Awaiting, ideas.

Are you going to use one tanking spec or two? If you are going to use just one I think Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft would be pretty solid nice survivability not lowering threat to much. If you are going two tanking specs for my second spec I would either have it Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft or Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft. 15/5/51 is a little more tps and dps 5/15/51 is better for melee because of Imp demo shout. Forgot the Unrelenting Assault spec, theres a thread on it in either the general or theory forums. Ciderhelm also made a very good video on it.
Last edited by krc; 08-08-2009 at 10:47 AM.
Looked at the 2 Talent Tree specs you posted. Not entirely 100% why they would better my role. Willing to listen to advice. Just need the reasin WHY
It is pretty simple these days.
Run heroics, loot Emblems of Conquest. Upgrade just about everything you have.
Your gear shows you have the theory down to make the right decisions. Continue using the same concepts as you re-enter the game and continue progressing.
Unbridled Wrath is very out of place especially with just a single point. Maxxing out the points in Damage Shield would be a much better use of that single point.
Bronzebeard - US
Well one thing is there is no need for imp bloodrage and block is only good on trash so I would take 3 points of shield spec. I would take 3 points out of puncture and put them in imp heroic strike since you will be using heroic strike far more then sunder armor. Incite is also a must since it will up your tps and dps by alot. Imp disc and the glyphs of last stand/ shield wall will lower your cooldown time on Shield Wall and Last stand which will greatly increase your survivability. Deepwounds will send your dps through the roof. The 5/15/51 is very good for melee since Imp demo shout will reduce incoming melee damage.
Thank you for your reasoning .
Ill alter and see how I go. You say run Heroics, for the Emblems of Conquest. To be honest I'm gonna try the Ulduar, when I get time.
I sure could do with a few more thousand HP, but Warrior Tank tries not to get hit, sure it'll be fine .
PS: Know what I can do with 200 approx Emblem of Honour spare ?
When you say emblem of honor I assume you mean heroism. You could get the belt and put it into an avoidance set. And from your gear it looks like you know this but stay away from block and block value unless its a trash set.

I have partnered with Wall Pops to show you a fun way to get organized for Back to School! Plus they are providing a giveaway! All opinions are mine and are honest.
I have a space in my house that I like to keep all things school related. We try really hard to keep everything contained to that area! I have also this year, added a calendar to help keep us moving in the right direction and on the same page! With three kids, a husband who travels and my PTA and Gym schedule, I need to SEE what we have going on each day. My kids also enjoy seeing what we have planned.
To organize this space as a Back to School area:
I bought cheap hooks at Hobby Lobby for the girls. I found ones that had each kids initials on them. They know that this is where their backpacks must hang each night. All homework and books must stay in them as well. I have found that having a "home" for items makes me feel much more organized.
I was sent the Black Wall Pop Calendar to check out and we love it! It fits great on the back of our garage door and we can easily add to the schedule or erase off what is no longer needed.
We have our key hook on the last wall as a great place to keep them handy to grab just before we leave.
With school starting in a few short weeks, Wall Pops thought it would be fun to partner with me to giveaway one of these calendars as seen above to one of my readers! Leave a comment on this blog post telling us where you would put the Wall Pop and how it would help your family. Giveaway ends on 8/15 at 5PM CST.

I'll always bring a touch of leather and fur to somebody else's house!
(Source: fleshcircus)
Incredibly slow progress on the goat wallet because I hate lacing, suck at it, and find it terribly monotonous.
but goats are cool
Just figured out there are no flat background tools and I really don't like textured background tools :/ hoping if I paint it dark enough the texture wont be notieceable, and I'll put a light stain over the wolves one I finish them so there is still detail.
Extreme wardrobe malfunctions as usual.
But, deerskin skirt in progress. Its going to have a white attachment underneath as well. May be elkskin instead though.
Surprised I got anything done this past hour.
Rough beveling and some fur details
Progress on goat wallet for Mesikammen
Another piece Im working on. Much larger, and smeared with a stain I was testing out. I might deglaze it and pick a different stain all together or just go over it again when I finish tooling
Ignore the leather blemishes.. like the massive tear through the wolf and bear lol
yet again, only had textured bevel tools and a pretty shitty piece of scrap, but practice is practice
Prior to staining & finishing. Still have to add the second layer of leather below it as well
Today's carving.
fuckin briar brown
ignore the ash on it and the fact that it kinda sucks
anyways, idk if anyone remembers this bear/wolf doodle from a bit back, but now I'm carving it
Third carving. At the time I only had textured bevel tools available… needless to say I probably shouldn't have used them
Fourth carving/shitty pen doodle
not bad for my second try at carving leather!
Savage deerskin top :)

If 2011 was any indication, blue chip investors have finally reached the promised land. For more than a decade, small-cap stocks had trounced large, but last year was finally the big boys' chance to shine. Standard & Poor's 500-stock index eked out a 2.1 percent gain (including dividends) while the Russell 2000 Index fell 4.2 percent. Meanwhile, the giants in the Dow Jones Industrial Average delivered a solid 8.4 percent gain.
Small caps have started the year strong, but money managers such as Ben Inker, director of asset allocation at GMO, which manages $100 billion, expect big caps to retake the lead. Inker's instinct is rooted in history, as big, stable companies (and their stocks) tend to hold up better when the economy is weak. "Small caps are trading at a high price-earnings ratio at a time when we think earnings growth over the next few years may well be negative," Inker says. "So they make us very nervous."
There are always historical exceptions, of course, as in the 2000-02 bear market, when the Russell 2000 beat the S&P 500 by a wide margin. That's because during the 1990s dot-com bubble, large caps so outperformed their smaller brethren that a significant valuation gap emerged. By the end of 1999 the biggest of the blue chips had an average price-earnings ratio of 35 compared to small caps' 16.5, according to the Leuthold Group. So during the crash that followed small-caps, which were more reasonably priced, fell less.
Today, however, big caps are beggars while small caps carry princely p-e's. The Leuthold Group calculates a forward-looking p-e of 10.7 for the 50 largest stocks vs. the small-cap universe's 16.3. (For the 300 largest stocks, the forward p-e is 13.) Such tempting valuations on big caps helped them overcome strong headwinds in 2011. "The big banks had a really bad year last year, and large caps were still able to outperform despite it," says Inker.
Small caps will lag large caps by 1.9 percentage points annually over the next seven years, Inker predicts. And he expects small caps, adjusted for inflation, to deliver no return at all. High-quality blue chips with low debt and stable profit margins will deliver the best numbers, Inker argues, outperforming small caps by 5.8 percentage points a year. That would exclude over-leveraged big banks and instead include big food, beverage, tech and health-care companies.
Opposing Views
Not everyone agrees. "In 2011 we saw a real flight to quality," says Craig Hodges, co-manager of the $200 million Hodges Fund, which can buy any size stock, and the $90 million Hodges Small Cap Fund. "The Street is really preaching, 'Get out of your risky assets and get into high-quality dividend-paying blue chips.' We've had so many fund outflows from equities of all sizes into bonds that as the pendulum swings back towards stocks, small caps, being more volatile than large, will do better. They are the first to perform well in an economic recovery."
David James, director of research at James Investment Research and co-manager of the James Balanced Golden Rainbow Fund and the James Small Cap Fund, thinks large-cap stocks will win out in 2012, but small caps will triumph over the next five years. In an economic recovery, James says, small caps win, and he believes the economy will gradually recover.
If 2012 is destined to be a banner year for big caps, it could spell trouble for actively managed mutual funds. It's harder to ferret out values among blue chips that are well covered by analysts, and the largest 50 stocks in the S&P 500 constitute half of the benchmark's total capitalization. That's part of the reason why over the past 15 years, the passively managed, low-expense Vanguard 500 Index Fund has beaten 63 percent of its actively managed peers in the large-cap blend fund category. By contrast, the Vanguard Small-Cap Index Fund (NAESX) has beaten a far lesser percentage of its actively managed peers -- 38 percent -- over the same period.

Kraft family sets up matching donation program to help in wake of Marathon bombings
|04.16.13 at 7:46 pm ET
The Patriots announced Tuesday night the Kraft Family will match up to $100,000 in donations made toward relief efforts in the wake of the Marathon bombings.
The Patriots and Revolution Charitable Foundations will collect donations online, with funds earmarked to assist with victim recovery. Donations can be made at Patriots.com/donate or RevolutionSoccer.net/donate (please note 'Boston Marathon' in field provided). The Kraft family will match the first $100,000 in donations.
'We are grieving for the victims of this senseless act,' said Robert Kraft. 'It is not lost on us that this tragedy occurred on Patriots Day, at an event where our own staff and their families were participating, and where thousands of runners were raising money for charities with which we are associated either through our Foundation, our alumni or our friends. Our focus is on helping those in need and beginning the healing process. We hope by matching donations we will encourage more people to give.'

We have a project where governors are wanting to create a cafe with Internet access for Sixth formers.
The build is about to commence and they want me to provide wireless internet access so that students can bring in their own laptops and mobile devices and access the net.
I have two problems. We have a good filtering solution as the proxy that requires domain credentials.
Whilst i am happy to instruct students how to set this up on a laptop, on trials every time you open a new browser window, it will ask for them again.
The next option is to use the RM safteynet filtering solution, which may be too restrictive for what the target audience 17-18 years olds in a relaxed social environment.
My other option is to bring in a seperate broadband connection purely to meet this need. I would then need to configure a software solution to audit and record all activity. Not something that i think is going to be cheap or easy.
Has anyone tackled a similar project, and how dod you manage it?

George Clooney did an Ask Me Anything Q&A on Reddit during a break from shooting his new "Tomorrowland" sci-fi film on Tuesday with Judy Greer, Hugh Laurie and country singer Tim McGraw.
He was asked about his infamous pranks (and being pranked by Matt Damon), his movies and co-stars, motorcycles, basketball ("I'm sneaky fast") and Tina Fey's Golden Globes joke about starring in "Gravity" with Sandra Bullock ("It's the story of how George Clooney would rather float away into space and die than spend one more minute with a woman his own age.")
He started the session by saying: "Hello reddit, George Clooney here. I'm a filmmaker who's worked on films you may know. I was also a guest star on The Golden Girls. I'm talking with you guys today from the set of Tomorrowland. And so sorry I am late, I was literally hanging from a wire as we were supposed to start this."
It's a lot of fun to read. Here's the link. Enjoy!

The news isn't surprising, though
the hard numbers are certainly disquieting. Reuters reports Pratt
& Whitney expects to cut as many as 1,500 additional jobs by
the end of 2009, as the enginemaker continues to scale back
operations due to the slumping economy.
Company president David Hess made those comments to Reuters this
week. The layoffs are part of the 11,600 jobs expected to be cut
this year among all divisions of Pratt parent company United
Technologies Inc,
as ANN reported earlier this month.
Hess adds the 1,500 cuts will be distributed among Pratt &
Whitney and components maker Hamilton Sundstrand, though "[w]e
expect that a significant chunk of that number will come from
The enginemaker has also lowered its earnings forecast for 2009,
saying at best operating profits will be flat, to the worst case
down $50 million. That would follow 2008 numbers of a $2.12 billion
profit last year, on $12.97 billion in revenue.
Hess said despite the cuts, the company continues to look at new
opportunities. Pratt recently diversified its operations by adding
United Technologies' geothermal
power business under its banner.
"There's probably even more opportunity" on the power side, Hess
said. "The industry is more fragmented and newer."

Civil Society Attitudes towards Wind Power at the National and Local Levels in Portugal Autor: Delicado, Ana, 1973-; Junqueira, Luís; Fonseca, Susana; Truninger, Mónica; Silva, Luís; Horta, Ana; Figueiredo, Elisabete Resumo: This article attempts to explain the swift development of renewable energy, in particular wind energy, in Portugal, by assessing the socio-political, community and market acceptance of renewables. We examine, on the one hand, the institutional and policy framework, the approaches to planning, and the ownership of facilities, and, on the other hand, the attitudes of Environmental Non-Governmental Organisations and citizens towards renewable energy in general and local windfarms in particular. Results show that a highly attractive feed-in tariff system and a system of planning decisions at the national level has led to an expansion of wind power, regardless of a less than enthusiastic public opinion and a sceptical environmental movement. 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z Socio-Technical and Cultural Approaches to Energy Consumption: An Introduction Horta, Ana Wilhite, Harold Schmidt, Luísa, 1955- Bartiaux, Françoise http://hdl.handle.net/10451/11612 2014-08-04T12:12:35Z 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z Título: Socio-Technical and Cultural Approaches to Energy Consumption: An Introduction Autor: Horta, Ana; Wilhite, Harold; Schmidt, Luísa, 1955-; Bartiaux, Françoise Resumo: Energy consumption inconspicuously bridges nature and culture. Modern societies and cultures depend on intensive energy use from the extraction of natural resources. In fact, the industrialization process required large amounts of energy, but main sources such as oil and coal, have been gradually depleted and found to be heavily polluting the environment. Despite their environmental impacts, these resources have provided cheap and abundant power to fuel technological progress and economic growth. 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z

Re:Microsoft removed the biggest anti-Linux argume (1010 comments)
The biggest trouble I find with it is the installing applications can become hacky and doesn't always work out.
That only should happen if you move outside of the package management of the distribution. If you always want the newest and shiniest versions, consider a rolling release distribution like Arch instead of something with fixed releases like Debian and Ubuntu.

Once the api stablizes, I can see some interesting stuff coming out of it.
So, we're three (or was it two?) years in, after four major releases, at version 3.8 and the Gnome devs said that they pretty much do not care about the API (I think the quote was something like this: "The API is not stable, it keeps changing with every release!" - "We never said it would be stable...")
