Hey! I'm Greg and I used to play a lot at Oregon park about 10 years ago. Older and slower now but I want to get back into it. I usually wear a straw hat in the sun so say hello if you see me out playing. I didn't see any new posts or threads so i thought I would start one to maybe get some social groups and times up where we can play together.
If you are open to getting some golf with the guys(and/or gals), just post here, unless there's a better place everyone is going to. I might even get up early Saturday if there's a group.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 by 26 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Johnny D. Simply the best stove we ever owned! There is nothing I really don't like about the stove with the exception of the bottom storage drawer. It's just simply too difficult to take out and put back - you need to be an engineer. Control panel and burners are superb. Haven't used the oven yet but it sure is pretty. I highly recommend this stove to anyone. Great buy for the price. September 3, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Cooking Stone Good Value for Money. Bought this range on sale for a kitchen remodeling. Clean styling, good control of burner temperatures, and nice oven make this a good value for the money. Unlike most electric ranges we considered, after you turn-off the burners, the range actually indicates which burner is still hot ... so you do not have guess... all the other ranges in this price range just had an indicator light that one or more of the burners was still hot... the LG 3012 indicates which burner is still hot ... so you do not have the guess... you know! April 16, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by skippym Love this stove! When I remodeled my kitchen I already had a LG dishwasher and a fairly new LG fridge so I wanted them all to match. When I found this stove I was delighted. For the money I got an extra large oven with a beautiful blue interior that's easy to clean. My prior smooth electric was hard to clean but this one is a breeze. Also, it heats up quickly. There is nothing about this stove that I don't love! It also matches my microwave that I purchased at the same time. I'm an LG family kitchen! March 22, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by moms We are COOKING now! This stove top is simply the best I have ever had. Plenty of room for all that I am cooking and room to warm as well. And the sleek top with no bulky eye burners is a big fat Plus!! Wow. And the oven... The oven lights up blue so you can see very well and is accurate on temp right to the degrees. This oven is Right on point with design . performance, and Style! Stainless steel ,sleek, and it is a beautiful led display on the controls!!!!This is what Style is guys!!! February 27, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by frecklesmist Love the streamline look of this stove! Not only is this a pretty stove, it works wonderful. I love how fast it heats up. Not having the bottom element showing makes very easy clean up. February 25, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by booky Extreme value!! This is Model LRE3012ST. Only owned a few days, but so far my wife and I are truly amazed. This beautiful electric smooth top range unit is just so wonderful to use! Loaded with features that are so useful and easy to use. I am retired so some of the newest technologies can be challenging, however we find this product easy to operate. Huge oven, with such a nice feature for proofing! Everything is made for easy cleaning. Highly recommend! January 13, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by BigTips Good looking appliance. Looks great in my kitchen and I love the proofing feature for baking. It's taking a little getting used to because I had a gas stove before and at work I use a gas stove. Easy to clean. January 4, 2013

When changing your aperture to defocus the background, the light sources appear blurred. This 'bokeh' effect of the blurred background can be enhanced with circular aperture blades used in this lens. Conventional aperture blades have flat sides creating unappealing polygonal shaped defocussed points of light. α lenses overcome this problem through a unique design that keeps the aperture almost perfectly circular from its wide-open setting to when it is closed by 2 stops. Smoother, more natural defocusing can be obtained as a result.
As focal lengths get longer, lenses built with conventional optical glass have difficulties with chromatic aberration, and as a result images suffer from lower contrast, lower color quality, and lower resolution. ED glass dramatically reduces chromatic aberration at telephoto ranges, and provides superior contrast across the entire image, even at large aperture settings. Super ED glass provides enhanced compensation for chromatic aberration.
Aspherical lens design dramatically reduces spherical aberration while also reducing lens size and weight. Spherical aberration is a slight misalignment of the light rays projected on the image plane. This is caused by differences in refraction at different points on conventional spherical lenses which degrade image quality in large-aperture lenses. Specially shaped "aspherical" elements near the diaphragm restore alignment of light rays at the image plane, maintaining high sharpness and contrast even at maximum aperture and can also be used at other points in the optical path to reduce distortion. Well-designed aspherical elements can reduce the total number of elements required in the lens, thus reducing overall size and weight. Advanced Aspherical (AA) elements are an evolved variant, featuring an extremely high thickness ratio between the center and periphery. AA elements are exceedingly difficult to produce, relying on the most advanced molding technology to consistently and precisely achieve the required shape and surface accuracy, resulting in significantly improved image accuracy and quality.
Rather than using the focus drive motor in the camera body, SAM lenses feature an autofocus motor built into to the lens itself that directly drives the focusing element group. Since the built-in motor directly rotates the focus mechanism, operation is significantly smoother and quieter than conventional coupled autofocus drive systems.

Research shows one in four girls and one in six boys are raped in America.
In recent reporting of the Steubenville rape case, society was outraged by the coverage. "Voluntarily got herself intoxicated," "never heard her say she did not want to do it," "these two young men … literally watched as they believed their life fell apart" are just some of the atrocious phrases said, which blame the victim. Distancing oneself by blaming the rape on alcohol or a mistake made by the victim should never justify the violation of a human being.
Real rape prevention should be simply stated: Do not rape. It is time to focus on the victim. Prevent future rapists by discussing this tough topic with the youth of our community. According to Shadows of Innocence, "Indiana has the second highest rate in the nation of forced sexual assault intercourse" for females in high school. This should be not only a concern to our community, but a wake-up call to make a change.

Lie flat on your back, legs extended, feet flexed, and arms at your sides, palms facing down. Bend your left leg into your chest, pulling the shin with both hands. Then grab your left big toe with your first two fingers and thumb of your left hand and lengthen the leg as much as you can while keeping both shoulders and hips on the floor. Next, wrap your right hand around the outside of left foot, shift your hips to the left, and extend your left leg across your body, reaching for the floor. Your hip will lift, but keep both shoulders on the floor. Reach that leg as far as your can, then turn your head and look over your left shoulder. Hold for five to seven breaths. Gently lift your leg, lower it back down to the floor, and repeat on the opposite side.

"They tell you if you get into this world with your child there will be a phone call," Salah Kivlighn said. "And we're not sure if this is the phone call, but it was the biggest call yet."
For Kivlighn, his wife Eimear and their 10-year-old daughter Aishlinn of Rockville that phone call came at the end of February when talent executive Shaun Royer, who's worked with artists such as Hillary Duff, Justin Timberlake and Alicia Keys, called to offer Aishlinn a spot opening for a Disney concert tour this summer.
"That call was scary and exciting," said Eimear. "It was the 'Oh my God,' call."
A fifth-grader at Travilah Elementary School in North Potomac, Aishlinn will be one of three opening acts for the Disney tour "Roshon Fegan and Caroline Sunshine Concert Jam," which kicks off June 1 in Pennsylvania.
Fegan and Sunshine are two of the stars of the Disney Channel series, "Shake It Up," about two girls (actresses Bella Thorne and Zendaya) and their adventures as backup dancers on a local show, "Shake It Up, Chicago."
After an initial trip to Los Angeles the first week of March and a second trip to record and rehearse with the cast in April, Aishlinn has since been rehearsing for the tour locally four days a week at C-Unit studio in Bethesda. The hometown rehearsals allow Aishlinn to maintain a balance between her school life and her music life.
"I've had to keep it kind of two separate worlds," Aishlinn said. "Usually I do schoolwork right when I get home and then practice. ... I try to keep these separate so I can balance it."
For Aishlinn's parents, the decision to allow their fifth-grader to pursue a professional music career didn't come without trepidation.
"It was scary not only from the perspective of this is what we want to do, but is this the right decision for our friends and family," Kivlighn said.
But Kivlighn said Aishlinn's dedication and maturity have made the process an easy one so far.
"She is very organized and very disciplined," Kivlighn said. "Aishlinn likes to have things done."
Plus, there was no denying their daughter had talent, Kivlighn and his wife said.
"I left the baby monitor in my room way later than I should have because she used to sing herself to sleep," said Eimear.
"We used to clean the house on Saturday mornings, and we had music going, and she used to know the words to all of the Eagles songs," Kivlighn said.
And it wasn't just her parents who recognized Aishlinn had something special. When Aishlinn was just 5 years old, and the family was living in Pennsylvania, Eimear said she took her daughter for her first music lesson. Upon learning Aishlinn's age, Eimear said the music teacher told them she only accepted students age 7 or older. Eimear asked the woman to please give her daughter a chance.
After just 20 minutes with Aishlinn on the piano, the music teacher told Eimear, "She's good. She's really good. I'm going to take her."
After the family moved to Rockville, Aishlinn continued with voice, piano and violin lessons. Last year, she recorded her first album, "This is It," with Jeff Levin, founder of the Bach to Rock Music School chain and president of Big V Production, Inc. Aishlinn's second EP, "Never Too Young," comes out this month and features songs she recorded in Los Angeles with Royer, along with producers Andrew Lane and Douglas James. Lane is behind other Disney mega-hits, "Hanna Montana" and "High School Musical," while James has worked with Mariah Carey.
The transition to professional artists hasn't only been an adjustment for Aishlinn. Her parents now spend much of their time creating a brand for their daughter.
"I spend a fair amount of time doing the behind the scenes stuff," said Kivlighn, who works full time as a product development team leader at MedImmune. "I get a couple hours of Aishlinn work done before I get started with my day."
"I need sleep. He doesn't need sleep," Eimear said jokingly, an account executive at Merck & Co. "I am more of the project manager."
While Aishlinn said she dreams of making it big like her role models Christina Aguilera and Mariah Carey, the 10-year-old also recognizes the importance of using her fame to give back.
With 3,000 fans on Internet radio and 800 followers on Twitter, Aishlinn's reach is wide. And as with so many young celebrities, she's chosen to use her influence to spread awareness for a cause: childhood cancer and other diseases. She has been invited to perform for patients at Children's Hospital in Los Angeles on her next visit out West.
"I think it's probably one of the most important parts of doing this," Aishlinn said. "I know I can do what I love and make such a big difference. I know I can help someone and make them feel good inside with my music."

Geography | Government | History
The Republic of Maldives is a group of atolls in the Indian Ocean about 417 mi (671 km) southwest of Sri Lanka. Its 1,190 coral islets stretch over an area of 35,200 sq mi (90,000 sq km). With global warming and the shrinking of the polar ice caps, the Maldives is directly threatened, as none of its islands rises more than six feet above sea level.
The Maldives (formerly called the Maldive Islands) were first settled in the 5th century B.C. by Buddhist seafarers from India and Sri Lanka. According to tradition, Islam was adopted in 1153. Originally, the islands were under the suzerainty of Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). They came under British protection in 1887 and were a dependency of then-colony Ceylon until 1948. An independence agreement with Britain was signed July 26, 1965. For centuries a sultanate, the islands adopted a republican form of government in 1952, but the sultanate was restored in 1954. In 1968, however, as the result of a referendum, a republic was again established in the recently independent country. Ibrahim Nasir, the authoritarian president since 1968, was removed from office and replaced by the more progressive Maumoon Abdul Gayoom in 1978. Gayoom was elected to a sixth five-year term in 2003.
A Powerful Tsunami Strikes Maldives
On Dec. 26, 2004, a tremendously powerful tsunami in the Indian Ocean devastated 12 Asian countries. The Maldives reported 82 deaths and suffered enormous damage: 14 of the archipelago's islands became uninhabitable, requiring citizens to be permanently evacuated, and another 79 islands were left without safe drinking water.
A Shift to Multiparty Democracy
Parliament voted in June 2005 to shift to a multiparty democracy. In an Aug. 2007 referendum, voters supported President Gayoom's plan for a presidential system of government, similar to that of the United States. The opposition, which supports a parliamentary system, claimed the vote was rigged, and three members of Gayoom's cabinet resigned.
In the country's first multiparty elections, held in Oct. 2008, Mohamed Nasheed, a former political prisoner, defeated President Gayoom in the second round of voting, 54% to 46%. Gayoom had been in office for 30 years, ruling as an autocrat. Nasheed, an opposition leader who returned to the Maldives in 2005 from exile in England, had been a leader in the democratization movement. He vowed to crack down on corruption.
President Nasheed Resigns
In what he described as a coup, President Nasheed resigned from office on Feb. 7, 2012. Immediately following his resignation, a warrant was issued for his arrest for unspecified criminal charges. Mohammed Waheed Hassan was named president. On Feb. 11, an American envoy encouraged Hassan and Nasheed's two factions to form a unity government. America has an interest in Maldives because the country is located near crucial shipping lanes, which are infested with pirates.
Later in February, Hassan named his cabinet, which includes members of former President Gayoom's political party. However, the new government did not have the approval of Nasheed. On Feb. 16, spokesmen for both Nasheed and Hassan announced that the two sides had agreed on an early election. Voting would take place in a few months as opposed to the previously scheduled October 2013 election. However, no specific date had been set because the country's Constitution must be changed in order to move the election.
President Elections Are Held and Annulled in 2013
On September 7, 2013, presidential elections were held. Former President Mohamed Nasheed came in first with 45.5% of the vote. He was followed by Abdulla Yameen with 25.3%, then Qasim Ibrahim with 24.1% and incumbent Mohamed Waheed Hassan with 5.1%. A runoff was scheduled for September 28, 2013, but was postponed.
Exactly one month after the presidential elections, the Supreme Court annulled the election results and canceled the scheduled runoff. The Supreme Court made its decision after a candidate challenged the outcome of the election, pointing out irregularities.
New elections were held on November 9, 2013. This time Mohamed Nasheed received 46.9% of the vote, followed by Abdulla Yameen with 29.7% and Qasim Ibrahim with 23.3%. The Supreme Court delayed the runoff, which was to be held on November 10, until November 16. Meanwhile President Hassan's term ended on November 11.
Abdulla Yameen won the November 16 runoff with 51.4% of the vote. Former President Mohamed Nasheed was a close second with 48.6%. Yameen was sworn in the following day.

Goodmorning everyone!!
So, this is my latest mini-project:
Recently, I wished I had a way to tack things to the "inside" of my table... Too far from the edges to conventionally clamp them... And this is what I came up with...
I bought a BESSEY 8" C clamp from the local lowes, spark tested it to determine it was malleable iron, and then cut if off and simply 7018'd it to a couple scraps of mild steel plate, which I can tack anywhere I need to...
Anyway, the clamp welded very well... It was my first time welding malleable cast iron, and first time welding dissimilar metals...
And I got another tool for the shop... I'm pretty happy with how it came out
Just thought I'd share... I'm probably not the first one to come up with this idea... Hope you guys enjoy the video, and have an awesome weekend everyone

Friday, April 12, 2002Boiling Springs, N.C. (Apr. 11, 2002) -- The East Tennessee State Buccaneer softball team lost two games by the slimmest of margins, falling 2-1 and 4-3 in a doubleheader against Gardner-Webb Thursday afternoon from Boiling Springs, N.C. Gardner-Webb (23-25) freshman Rachael Riopel singled to score senior Joni Carter and earn the Lady Bulldogs a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the third. ETSU (16-24) answered back in the top of the fourth when freshman outfielder Amy Moore (Jacksonville, Fla.) doubled to score sophomore catcher Sheryl Clark (Bradenton, Fla.). In the bottom of the sixth, Riopel came to the plate again and ripped a triple and scored on a throwing error to bring the final 2-1 win. Sophomore first baseman Miranda Byerly (Candler, N.C.) led the Bucs with two hits in three at bats. ETSU starter, sophomore Tiffany vandergriff (Sale Creek, Tenn.) went the distance, allowing six hits, one earned run and striking out three. In game two, ETSU went out in front first picking up three runs in the top of the third. But, with two outs in the bottom of the fourth, the Lady Bulldogs managed to pull ahead 4-3, the final margin of victory. Sophomore outfielder Rhea Holler (Peoria, Ariz.) led the team in game twp, going 2-3. Buccaneer starter, freshman Courtney Jenkins (Knoxville, Tenn.) tossed a complete game, allowing six hits, one earned run and striking out three. The Bucs return to action Saturday at 1 p.m. for a Southern Conference softball doubleheader against Furman from Metro-Kiwanis Park.

Glutagenics Powder by Metagenics features three key ingredients—glutamine' deglycyrrhizinized licorice (DGL)' and aloe vera — that are included for their comprehensive support of the integrity and healthy functioning of the gastrointestinal lining.
Glutagenics was formulated to support a healthy intestinal lining' which is crucial for a healthy digestive system' immune function and overall health. It supplies large quantities of the amino acid glutamine' which serves as a source of fuel and a precursor for growth to the quickly dividing cells of the intestinal lining. This powdered supplement also provides a highly concentrated licorice extract' which was processed to remove glycyrrhizin (a component that is known to cause adverse reactions in some people).
Since aloe vera has been known to produce a laxative effect' Metagenics removed its bitter (laxative promoting) principles. Also' being a powder' Glutagenics is easy to use and allows for flexible dosing. Metagenics only includes natural flavors to ensure the best possible flavor out of its Glutagenics Powder.
Why Glutamine?
Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body. It is among most of the amino acids that work together to build protein. Under normal circumstances' the body can produce all the glutamine it needs' but under extreme periods of physical or emotional stress' your body may need more glutamine than it can make naturally. Glutamine is mostly stored in muscles' and it is also stored in the lungs. Incidentally' that is also where glutamine is made by the body.
Glutamine is essential for removing excess ammonia from the body (ammonia is a common waste product). Glutamine also helps support the immune system and is believed to play an important role in digestion and brain function.
If you have a specific medical condition that can lower glutamine levels' such as surgery' prolonged emotional stress' infections or injuries' your body may not be producing all of the glutamine it needs.
Why Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice?
Licorice has been used for centuries as a medicinal remedy to treat a variety of illnesses and promote liver health. It is believed to act as a demulcent (soothing agent) and expectorant (mucous expeller). Although it is largely beneficial' licorice that includes glycyrrhiza can have serious side effects. This is why Metagenics has removed the glycyrrhiza from the licorice in its Glutagenics Powde; this type of licorice doesn't seem to have the same side effects.
Why Aloe Vera?
When we eat' the stomach absorbs the nutrients from food and disposes of everything else. Our digestive systems break down the food for easy absorption with the help of beneficial bacteria in the stomach. At times' toxins are released along with the nutrients and they are allowed to enter the blood stream. The body has a very complex and effective mechanism for handling such toxins' but in the meantime' they can cause discomfort. This is where aloe vera steps in to help detoxify the blood. Because it is also soothing and healing' it may relax the muscles of the digestive tract while having a cleansing effect.
Metagenics creates innovative supplements that help people overcome the symptoms of chronic diseases and maintain their health. Quality and research is paramount' and has been since the company was founded in 1983. All active ingredients in Metagenics products have been demonstrated effective by third-party scientists. Its formulas have been imitated but never duplicated.
These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). These products are not meant to diagnose' treat or cure any disease or medical condition. Please consult your doctor before starting any exercise or nutritional supplement program or before using these or any product during pregnancy or if you have a serious medical condition.

Great Taste-Works Quickly.
I have low blood sugar problems & in only a minute or two of putting a teaspoon of the Glutagenics Powder by Metagenics in water & drinking in it, I feel my blood sugar go right back to normal. This powder has also helped me get rid of the dizziness associated with low blood sugar as well.
The powder dissolves quickly & tastes good.
The item is a bit on the expensive side.

So far so good.
I've been taking Glutagenics Powder by Metagenics for about a month and can definitely see an improvement in my gastritis symptoms. I warm up about 8 oz of water in the microwave for 2 minutes and put a teaspoon of Glutagenics in it, like a cup of tea. This is the best way for me to drink it. (It's important not to put it in boiling water though as that could affect effectiveness.) Very happy to have found something that seems to be working!
Seems to be healing my stomach, or at least easing my gastritis symptoms, which is really nice.
A little expensive.

Pain Goes Down the Toilet!
Glutagenics Powder by Metagenics is portable. Great for traveling. Add to water and the licorice soothes the gastrointestinal lining and chases the pain causing particles out with a natural 6 hour laxative effect!
Stir the powder in water and drink immediately. No aftertaste.

I have used Glutagenics Powder by Metagenics for several years to quell my gastritis. It works! Gastritis never returns and my gastroenterologist says keep doing it! My former holistic doctor made me privy to this and what a blessing it has been!
It heals gastritis and any flare-ups.
A little pricey.

Different from what I purchased at Dr.s
This was prescribed by my doctor to heal the gut due to leaky gut syndrome. I purchased it at his office. My doctors office is not close to home so I ordered subsequent jars from Pure Formulas. For some reason it is much lighter in color and does not have a very strong licorice taste. Perhaps it varies from batch to batch? I cant comment on the products effectiveness yet. I have not been taking it long enough.
Taste is decent.

I turned 56 years old this week.
I started covering sports full-time at age 22 in Atlantic, after three years of part-time newspaper work in Fort Dodge and Iowa City.
So, I've seen a few ballgames.
Here are a few observations from the state of the game in 2013, as we go full-bore into the postseason tournament run this weekend:
• Parents are bolder.
There was a time when parents knew the dugout area was off limits. That communicating with your child during competition was strictly taboo, and any efforts to do so would be met with a stern lecture from somebody on the coaching staff.
Can you imagine during a basketball game, as a kid steps to the free throw line, and a parent walks to the baseline and shouts some last-second tips about bending the knees, and following through?
Yet, that's about what's happening at some softball and baseball games. I was at a softball game during the past week when two separate dads offered such "help." One walked behind the on-deck circle as his daughter was getting loose, and said something about her swing.
Another walked next to the edge of the dugout and told his daughter something about changing to a more open stance.
In both cases, the team's coaches were in the first and third-base coaching boxes, so they had no idea this was going on.
Look, I know you mean well, and I've been there. I was the jerk behind the backstop shouting tips to my sons at various stages of their careers. In time, I understood it was wrong.
And, once I got into coaching, I realized how undermining it is. As a coach, if I want one of my players to change her stance, I'll be the one telling her. And, one thing a player on deck doesn't need is a distraction from her own focus time.
Your job is to attend and support the whole team with a positive attitude. It's not to guide your child to a college scholarship with your expertise.
Coaching is hard enough without having the kids hear a bunch of mixed messages during a competition. And, in most cases, it seems to me the kid just wants the parent to go away during these "interruptions." Remember how easily embarrassed you were as a teenager?
Oh, and by the way, to the parents who were "put out" by where I was positioned to shoot photos during recent softball games: You can be mobile in your lawn chair and find other spots. Plus, the bleachers usually aren't full.
I'm limited in the fact that I can't shoot photos through the fence, and when possible I try to avoid making them draw me a media box on the field of play.
I'm there to cover YOUR team, which includes YOUR kid. So, all I ask for is a little leeway in doing my job for a couple of hours.
• High school teams are getting younger and younger, and there's a learning curve that goes along with that.
Back in the day, I remember discussions on the Little League Board about the push to finish seasons by July 1, for vacation purposes and the like. Not to mention the good early July baseball weather you're sacrificing for some wicked evenings endured in April and early May.
My position was, a schedule that's too compressed with games leaves little time for learning the game in practice environments, when you can truly stop and explain why you're asking them to do something.
Likewise, a high school schedule is sometimes so crowded that it's tough to work in consecutive practice days, unless you go in the morning for awhile on game days.
The end result of all of this is watching a lot of kids in eighth and ninth grades learn fundamental things during varsity games. Baserunning and fielding cutoff principles are the primary things I've noticed.
When varsity teams were primarily made up of juniors and seniors, you didn't see as many lapses like these:
1) Kids forgetting to tag up at third on a deep fly ball, or at second if the fly is deep enough in right or center.
2) Runners not going halfway on a ball in the air with less than two outs, instead hanging back near the base; or worse yet, forgetting to keep running until the ball is caught with two outs. With two outs and a ball hit to left field, I saw a young courtesy runner hesitate coming off second, to see if it would be caught or not. Geez, if it's dropped, he should be scoring!
3) Runners on first and second thinking they have to advance on a dropped popup, when in fact, the umpire called the infield fly rule.
4) In little leagues, you see outfielders just winging the ball into the pitcher's area in the middle of the infield. That should not be happening in a varsity game, when a ball is caught in right field, and the runner on second mistakenly ran too far off the bag on contact.
That throw should be on a line above the cutoff's (second baseman) head to the shortstop covering second, and you have a double play. That should be second nature in a varsity game. I see too many outs left on the field because people aren't thinking ahead where they are going to throw the ball.
Man, I still have nightmares about coach Ed McNeil screaming at us in practice if we showed any tendancy of being unsure where we were going with the ball after catching it. And, that was practice!
On the other hand, an experienced, well-drilled team is still fun to watch. At tournament time, as the rounds progress, that's the type of teams we get to cover.
• On a more positive note, safety is coming more into the forefront on high school ball diamonds.
At Nodaway Valley, for example, you'll see several softball players wearing protective face masks. There' a good reason for that. They nearly witnessed a teammate get killed this season.
Josie Carter was playing second base in a game at East Union. Coach Ray Stewart, an experienced EMT volunteer in Fontanelle, explains what happened:
"There was a hard, one-hop drive to Josie at second. It scooted right over the top of her glove, and got her right between the eyes. The sound of the ball hitting her face was just like it sounded when it came off the bat.
"I was out on the field before the ball stopped rolling. I mean, I thought it could have killed her! She went down to her knees, and then face first in the dirt. She started to come to a little bit, and as I raised her up, the blood just came out like gushers."
Carter suffered a broken nose, and missed some softball time after surgical repair.
The day after the incident, Jay Harter, father of shortstop Sadie Harter, went to Des Moines and got masks for everyone on the team who wanted one. They paid for them, but he made the trip to get them.
As the season wound down, you saw the pitcher and everyone in the infield wearing the masks. And, Carter in right field.
It's great to have happy endings like that, as well as the great news Creston first baseman Mackenzie Andreasen got a while back about her mother's successful cancer surgery. Suddenly, batting stances and winning games doesn't seem like life and death.
"It kind of puts it all in perspective," Creston coach Mike McCabe said.

Ah, The Bends. Before they crafted the album of the decade and bolted into obtuse, arty avenues, Radiohead's foray into acoustic-driven, falsetto-filled soft rock made a jaded generation swoon and set the template for the next 15 years (and counting) of inoffensive, middle-of-the road rock.
The Bends begot Travis' The Man Who, which in turn begot Coldplay's Parachutes, which begot a mixed bag of a billion like-minded things. But even without that legacy, it remains a fantastic album with half-a-dozen truly stunning songs: "Just," "Fake Plastic Trees," "High and Dry," etc.
Taking on these and other tunes at the Mercy Lounge (1 Cannery Row, 251-3020) on Friday, August 6 are Yorke-loving locals Jeremy Lister, Joel J. Dahl, Aaron Robinson and more.
The show starts at 9 p.m., and admission is $10.

With the federal government playing a substantial role in Montgomery County's economy, the biggest business stories of 2013 focused on sequestration and a shutdown.
The 16-day government shutdown in October put many of Montgomery and Frederick counties' roughly 51,000 federal workers out of work. That came after earlier sequestration budget cuts had furloughed many employees.
The Bethesda-based National Institutes of Health cut 5 percent, or $1.55 billion, of its fiscal 2013 budget, awarding about 640 fewer research grants. Other government agencies and private contractors were affected.
Bethesda defense giant Lockheed Martin furloughed about 2,400 employees companywide during the shutdown, with executives directing them to use vacation time. The shutdown cost the company about $40 million, but sequestration cuts were not as bad as originally expected, with the impact about $400 million, CFO Bruce Tanner said.
Rockville information technology business Terrapin Systems laid off about 170 employees after losing a contract with the National Cancer Institute.
Some contractors were not heavily affected. Fisher BioServices, which has about 330 employees in Maryland, including 260 at its Rockville lab, had enough work through its private segment that the lag in government business did not require the company to lay off employees, said Dennis Barger, vice president and general manager of the company. "We were fortunate," he said.
While the federal segment stalled, the private sector in Montgomery and Frederick counties picked up steam, adding about 11,000 jobs in the past year, according to federal labor figures. That was the most jobs created in the two counties since 2000.
Among those adding workers was Wegmans, which opened its first grocery store in Montgomery with about 550 employees.
Future jobs are expected to come from Gaithersburg biotech MedImmune, whose parent company announced it will establish a global research and development center at MedImmune's headquarters.
Marketing and specialty care commercial functions will be centered in Gaithersburg, with about 300 jobs moving there from Wilmington, Del., by 2015.
Construction on the $2.2 billion Purple Line, a 16-mile rail line that would connect Bethesda and New Carrollton, could start in 2015, as officials expect to start acquiring right-of-way property this year. Six private-sector teams have submitted statements of qualifications that they hope will lead to work on the long-proposed project. Officials hope to choose a partner and recommend the final agreement to the state Board of Public Works within a year.
Officials also hope the $120 million Silver Spring Transit Center, which has been plagued by construction delays and cost overruns, will be completed this year.
The first phase of Pike & Rose — one of the region's largest mixed-use development projects, replacing Mid-Pike Plaza in North Bethesda — is expected to be completed this year. The first phase includes some 170,000 square feet of retail, 80,000 square feet of commercial office and 493 residential units.
The apartment units should open by May, with an iPic movie theater, 32,000-square-foot Sport & Health fitness club, a park, offices and restaurants such as Del Frisco's Grille, Roti and ShopHouse Southeast Asian Kitchen to follow by next fall, said Evan Goldman, vice president for development of Rockville-based Federal Realty Investment Trust.
Last year also saw a proposal to expand the annual storm water management fee — which some dub a "rain tax" — to more property owners. The Montgomery County Council passed a storm water program that extends the fee to most businesses, while officials said most homeowners will see a reduction in what they currently pay.
The fee — fueled by a state law passed in response to an order by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to clean up the Chesapeake Bay — will be phased in over the next three years. The fee could be quite hefty for some such as auto dealers and shopping center owners that have large parking lots.
In October, Maryland's new health care exchange system, a key part of the federal Affordable Care Act, opened and individuals started shopping for health insurance. The small business program was delayed until April.
Maryland is one of 16 states, along with Washington, D.C., operating their own exchanges.
Last year was a big one for numerous business leaders, including Rachel K. King, CEO of Gaithersburg biotech GlycoMimetics. King was named board chair of the Biotechnology Industry Association, or BIO, the industry's leading national trade group. The Tech Council of Maryland also honored King with its 2013 Executive of the Year award, and GlycoMimetics filed to go public.
The housing market continued to recover in 2013 from its doldrums during the Great Recession. Montgomery and Frederick saw sales of existing homes post gains in most months from a year earlier, including a 26 percent rise in Montgomery and 15 percent increase in Frederick in October. Prices also rose accordingly.

Sometimes using a creative approach to pet adoptions makes all the difference in the world. In a recent life-changing trip, 36 lucky dogs and puppies from an ASPCA partner community agency, the Asheville Humane Society, received new chances to find loving forever homes. These sweet pups were transported by plane from North Carolina to Florida in an "Airlift of Love," during the annual Pilots n Paws event.
Over the course of the event, 300 dogs were flown to parts of the country where there are plenty of willing adopters waiting to open their homes to shelter pets. This impressive event could be considered the largest canine rescue in American history!
Check out the video to follow these sweet dogs, including one special pup named Betty, on their exciting journey toward adoption.

The Community of Disc Golfers and About All Things Disc Golf
Views: 17
As for Antarctica, there is already a course there according to the course locator I found that uses Google Maps!
Now that would be a tough course to play.
hi there!
I live in Austria, Europe and have played all the courses and tournaments there. So far I travelled to Hungary (Budapest), Germany (Poing, Weilheim, Potsdam, Soehnstetten), Switzerland (Geneva), Belgium (Namur) and Australia (Sydney) and played some discgolf there. Next weekend Slovakia is on my discgolf travel list to play a tournament at Budmerice near Bratislava.
If anybody is interrested in playing some discgolf in our beautiful country right in the middle of Europe, the Austrian discgolf family will give him/her a warm welcome. Promised!
Here's a map on which you can find all the Austrian discgolf locations. So far we have only two permanent courses that can be played in summer only, 'cause they are located on ski slopes (Hebalm & Wagrain), but a third one (Buschberg - Naturpark Leiserberge) wil be installed (hopefully) this season.
Red pins mark the permanent courses, yellow pins are locations of tournaments, turquoise pins are locations where we meet to practise and the green one marks the location of the course we are planing and building at the moment.
greetz to everybody

From listening to them talk, it's hard to tell who is more excited about the new Alabama tribute album, "Alabama & Friends" — the group who made the songs famous or today's artists who were chosen to perform the covers.
"What was important to me was that wonderful music that I had either written, co-written, recorded or sang, that it was being looked at favorably by some great artists and that it was going to live again," Owen says. "I feel like I'm living again."

May 20, 2011New Camp Chef Products in the Field
Spending the past few days camping out at media events has allowed me to work with a couple of the stoves and products that are new for this year.
The Ranger III Blind Stove (Model# BS60C) received a good work out cooking for six of us. The extra burner allowed the coffee to continue to stay hot while the two other burners did main courses.

Ok, yeah I like to fish. Love it in fact. But this year the water has been pretty ugly. Even the reservoirs are dirty. Not to mention the fact that the over abundance of snow has kept me out of hunting turkey in the high country that I like to do so much. I think I like just being up there, and alone. And it is a good excuse for exercising the ticker. Last week I

There's nothing more that I look forward to than spending time outdoors with my family in the hills and on the lakes and rivers of western Montana. I can still remember clearly times from my own childhood exploring creeks and backyards with my younger brother, and I can only hope that my daughter will inherit the same sense of adventure I had.

"This is a delicious recipe for ham and potato soup that a friend gave to me. It is very easy and the great thing about it is that you can add additional ingredients, more ham, potatoes, etc., and it still turns out great."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

3 1/2 cups
peeled and diced potatoes
1 cup
diced cauliflower
1 cup
frozen corn
3/4 cup
diced cooked ham
1/3 cup
finely chopped onion
1/3 cup
diced celery
3 cloves
garlic, diced
4 cups
water, or as needed to cover
2 tablespoons
chicken bouillon granules
1/2 teaspoon
salt, or to taste
1 teaspoon
ground white pepper
5 tablespoons
5 tablespoons
all-purpose flour
2 cups
Very nice recipe. I cooked a meaty ham bone from the freezer in the crockpot overnight and used the broth from that in place of the water and chicken bouillon. I kind of reserved the method. I cooked the potatoes in the ham broth in a large sauce pan. I cooked the onion, celery, garlic and carrot (not called for in the recipe) in the butter. Added the flour and made a roux using 2 cups low fat milk. I added the seasonings to the roux / milk mixture. Once the potatoes were done I dumped them and the broth into the large pot and added the ham from the ham bone and the corn. If you like larger pieces of potato in your soup leave it as it. If you like a smoother more creamy soup, use a potato masher to smash up the potatoes and broth before adding the the creamy vegetable mixture. The white pepper gives the a very tasty finish. If you are sensitive to pepper cut the white pepper back to 1/2 tsp. I garnished the soup with a little grated cheese and diced chives. Served with a crusty bread it made for a wonderful dinner. Thanks for a good recipe, Cara.
This was great and went over well during a football game party. Minor changes..I doubled the recipe and sauteed all of the vegys (except corn and potatoes) until tender and then used an immersion blender to puree half of the vegys once it cooked in the liquid for a while (potatoes cooked through) and only used half the butter. Super good and easy!

This was my third time making this addictive soup. The only thing differentwas I added kraft shredded cheese with cream cheese.Awesome s
Great soup for a cold winter supper. Chose this recipe over others on the site because of the cauliflower and when I went to the grocery store they were sold out of cauliflower! Since the soup was short a vegetable, I added diced carrots. Omitted the salt, reduced the garlic to one clove, added sliced scallions, and minced fresh parsley. Think it would be even better with the cauliflower. Good with or without shredded cheddar cheese on top.
My boyfriend and I really enjoy cooking and this was such a fun, easy meal to prepare together. Since the holiday season was recently upon us, there has been an over abundance of HAM in both our families dinners. I hate to be wasteful, so I started off my day with a traditional English brekkie of Bubble and Squeak (which I highly recommend to anyone that has leftover veggies from a roast) and then this delicious meal for dinner. I actually added a bit more flour to the milk mixture because I enjoy thick, hearty soups. We topped off our bowls with shredded sharp cheddar cheese and green onions. This was a fantastic recipe we will definitely use again. Thank you!
Made this the other night, it turned out wonderful.....and even better the second day! Will definitely be making this again.
Delicious--this is very similar to another recipe Delicious Ham and Potato Soup except for the addition of the cauliflower and corn. I didn't try the cauliflower as I didn't have any. I have used the other recipe on this site and it too is delicious--I loved the corn addition and will use it in the future. Don't know if I'll try the cauliflower as I think it may overpower the taste.
Love it!. I ad cheese to mine too.Yummy!

Two Bucs earn all All-Conference honors; Smith named A-Sun Player of the Year
Requires Adobe Flash
Mike Smith
Tuesday, March 01, 2011
MACON, Ga. (March 1, 2011)
- With the start of the 2011 General Shale Brick Atlantic Sun Men's Basketball Championship only a day away, the conference announced its end-of-year awards as senior
Mike Smith
(Vandalia, Mo.) was named the A-Sun Player of the Year.
Smith became the third Buccaneer to win the Player of the Year. Smith joins former teammate
Courtney Pigram
and Buccaneer all-time leading scorer
Tim Smith
as the Buccaneers to garner the top individual honor. Only four other schools in A-Sun history have ever produced at least three Players of the Year, Centenary, College of Charleston, Georgia Southern and Mercer.
Smith won four Player of the Week honors during the season and won the award by a unanimous vote. One year after playing only four games because of knee injury, Smith finished second in scoring in conference play, averaging 17.7 points per game while ranking sixth in rebounding.
Smith's teammate and 2010 Tournament MVP
Micah Williams
(Manchester) landed on the Second Team. Smith finished sixth in the conference averaging 14.9 points per game and posted a league best average of 35.43 minutes a game.
Jacksonville's Ayron Hardy joined Gardner-Webb's Tim Jennings as the only players in A-Sun history to win multiple Defensive Player of the Year honors. Torrey Craig won the first A-Sun superlative award in USC Upstate history and Belmont head coach Rick Byrd won his second Coach of the Year honor.
Belmont, the regular-season champion, featured a total of four student-athletes on the postseason All-Conference teams. Ian Clark earned First-Team honors a year after earning Freshman of the Year. Bruin post players Mick Hedgepeth and Scott Saunders each made the Second Team and J.J. Mann landed on the All-Freshmen squad. Clark finished the regular season as the Bruins top scorer while Hedgepeth and Saunders combined to average better than 20 points and 10 rebounds per game. Byrd, who won his 500th game at Belmont and 600th game overall during the 2010-11 season, led the Bruins into the A-Sun Championship as the No. 3 team in the CollegeInsider.com Mid-Major top 25, the conference's first team in the top five in seven years.
Lipscomb's senior teammates, Adnan Hodzic and Josh Slater, represent the only school with multiple players on the First Team. Hodzic becomes only the eighth player in league history named to the First Team three times. He needs only seven points to become the fifth player in league history to reach 2,000 points. Slater, who also made the FirstTeam in 2009-10, has recently moved into top five in the country in steals per game, thanks to turning a triple double of 10 points, 12 assists and 10 steals against USC USC Upstate on Feb. 17.
In addition to winning his second Defensive Player of the Year award, Ayron Hardy earned First-Team All-Atlantic Sun honors for the first time in his career. He scored a career-best 12.6 points per game and joins Morehead State's Kenneth Faried, Virginia Tech's Jeff Allen and Duquesne's Damian Saunders as the only active players to have accumulated 1,000 points, 200 steals and 100 blocks. His freshman Dolphin teammate, Keith McDougald made the All-Freshmen Team, becoming the fifth Dolphin to make the team in the six-year tenure of head coach Cliff Warren.
USC Upstate's Torrey Craig made program history as he captured the Freshman of the Year accolade. He earned the first superlative award for the Spartans' men's basketball team since joining the conference in 2007. He paced A-Sun freshmen in scoring and rebounding. His scoring average, 14.4, ranked among the ten best in the nation. Craig, and fellow unanimous All-Freshman choice Christophe Varidel ranked among the nation's 10 most prolific freshmen 3-point shooters. Varidel closed the season with the second-most 3-point field goals by any freshmen and by averaging 14.6 points per game over his final 18 games.
Mercer's Brian Mills rounded out the First Team, becoming the 23rd All-Atlantic Sun performer in Mercer history. He boasted the highest scoring increase in the conference from a season ago. After averaging 7.8 points per game in 2009-10, he more than doubled his production, netting 15.7 points per game. The Bears' Langston Hall earned All-Freshmen honors. He enters the A-Sun Championships ranking eighth in the country, among freshmen, in 3-point field goal percentage, having connected on close to 41 percent of his attempts.
A pair of sophomores, Kennesaw State's Markeith Cummings and FGCU's Anthony Banks, rounded out the Second Team. Cummings, the conference's leading scorer, surpassed the 1,000-point in February and closed out the season averaging 20.8 points per game in his final 13 games. Banks finished the season with 106 offensive rebounds, becoming just one of seven players in the country to have grabbed at least 100 offensive rebounds in each of the last two seasons.
Two members of Stetson's acclaimed freshmen class, Corey Walden and Luis Jacobo, made the All-Freshmen team. Walden, a unanimous choice of the coaches, averaged close to 14 points and collected 2.5 steals per game in league play while Jacobo averaged 11.4 points and connected on 38 percent of his 3-point tries in A-Sun games. The Hatter teammates become just the third pair of teammates to make the All-Freshmen team in the last seven years. Jacksonville' duo of Ben Smith and Lehmon Colbert made the five-man squad in 2006-07. One season later, Hodzic and Slater made the team from Lipscomb.

With 17 Division I teams, a wide variety of club sports and some of the best facilities in the nation, the University of San Diego provides the ideal environment for all types of athletes to take their game to the next level.
Sanctioned men's and women's athletic teams represent the university in Division I National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) competition as members of the eight-team West Coast Conference. (The football team competes in the NCAA Division IA Pioneer Football League, the swimming and diving team competes in the Western Athletic Conference and the women's softball team is in the Pacific Coast Softball Conference). The university is represented in the following Division I sports: baseball, basketball, rowing, cross country, football, men's golf, soccer, rowing, cross country, softball, swimming and diving, tennis, track and field and women's volleyball.
The mascot for the University of San Diego is the Torero (Tor-er-o), a Spanish bullfighter. Chosen by USD co-founder Bishop Charles Francis Buddy in 1961, the Torero symbolizes the university's close affiliation with Spain, as well as its athletes' commitment to courage, honor and fidelity.
Both Division I athletes and the more than 400 students who compete in club sports use USD's first-class athletic facilities. With a capacity of over 6,000, the Jenny Craig Pavilion (JCP) houses basketball and volleyball events along with a fitness center open to all students. Along with the JCP, the newly renovated Torero Stadium, Cunningham Baseball Field and Manchester Canyon Field all are located within a quarter-mile radius, making sporting matches convenient for both athletes and fans.
Club sports, intramural sports and recreational clubs offer an assortment of activities for students of all skill levels to enjoy. Club sports teams like equestrian, lacrosse and waterskiing compete against other schools from up and down the West Coast. Intramural sports give students an opportunity to play against other Toreros in sports ranging from football to table tennis. Sports clubs like men's and women's rugby compete with other schools through league and national collegiate club memberships. Recreational clubs allow students to enjoy hobbies ranging from tango dancing to scuba diving.
Students can also earn credit through the campus fitness program. Part of the university's initiative on wellness, the Campus Fitness program sponsors personal training sessions, fitness classes and wellness seminars.

Later this year, The Fillmore Silver Spring will host Gavin DeGraw, Sum 41 and The All-American Rejects.
But on Thanksgiving, the concert venue on Colesville Road hosted homeless and low-income people who cannot afford a Thanksgiving dinner, let alone tickets for these shows, at a special lunch.
The "Giving Thanks" lunch was The Fillmore's first community event for those in need during the holidays. Held from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Thanksgiving Day, venue employees and volunteers prepared a meal for more than 100 people to enjoy in The Fillmore's concert hall while jazz music played.
"It's a surprise that such a classy place would have something like this," said Lily, a woman attending the lunch.
Volunteer Virginia Pantella of Silver Spring said The Fillmore lends itself to this unique atmosphere.
"It doesn't feel like a charity event, and for a lot of people that feels good because they feel special," Pantella said.
The Fillmore reached out to the Greater Silver Spring Chamber of Commerce, Montgomery County Council members, and local churches for support. It also promoted the event on The Fillmore website and through social media.
Donations of supplies and time came from community members and businesses. The Double Tree Silver Spring supplied tables and the food was prepared by Spectrum, The Fillmore's regular concessions provider. Mad Dog Jazz, an ensemble that performs at the FreshFarm Silver Spring farmers market, played on The Fillmore's stage during the lunch.
"The Fillmore is all about music and community, and Thanksgiving provides a really great opportunity for us to give back, not just with music but also with friendship and assistance, to those in need," said Stephanie Steele, general manager for The Fillmore.
A selection of donated clothing, books and toys were available for guests. Volunteers filled care packages with food and clothing items, and handed them out to guests as they left the venue.
Although they were prepared for 500 people, volunteers served more than 100. Leftover food was donated to Shepherd's Table, a Silver Spring nonprofit that provides meals and other basic services to the homeless, and to the Montgomery County Police 3rd District command stations.
"We want to make sure we're able to share the love when we're done and make sure nothing goes to waste," Steele said.
Ely, who only gave his first name, learned about the event from the Shepherd's Table.
"It's everything. It means a lot to us," he said about the meal.
More than 120 people volunteered to serve food, greet guests, and prepare care packages.
Council members George Leventhal (D-At large), Nancy Navarro (D-Dist. 4), Craig Rice (D-Dist. 2) and Hans Riemer (D-At large) served food to the guests.
Navarro said it is important for county residents to remember those in need during the holidays.
"We are so fortunate here in Montgomery County. We have great resources but also great poverty," Navarro said. According to county statistics, about 72,000 residents live in poverty, which for a family of four would be an annual income of less than $23,000.
Riemer agreed with Navarro.
"As a county official it's important for me to be in touch with the people we're helping," he said. "Montgomery County is a great place to live but there are a lot of people who don't have a lot to eat."
Guests and volunteers agreed that The Fillmore was an unexpected location to host a Thanksgiving meal.
Pat, a woman from the D.C. area who attended the lunch, had previously attended overcrowded Thanksgiving lunches. She said she preferred this lunch because of its atmosphere.
"It's unexpected. I didn't know they did anything like this," Pat said.
Dan Pier of Takoma Park volunteered with his wife and two young children. He said he was impressed with the concert hall's decision to organize the event.
"I was very surprised when I found out what venue it was," Pier said. "To know they're in an entirely different business and to reach out in the community in this way says a lot about The Fillmore."
Although all volunteers received two tickets to Saturday's Delta Spirit concert, some said seeing the show was never an incentive to serve others Thanksgiving Day.
"I'm a strong believer in community service," Pantella said. "When you reach out to others you improve your life as well."
Riemer said this event has the potential to bring the community together in new ways.
"I think this is a great start for the event and I can see in the coming years that this will be a great hallmark for the holidays," he said.
Steele plans to host a "Giving Thanks" lunch every year and collaborate with businesses in Silver Spring to make it the best it can be.
"I want it to be bigger and better. It's gone amazingly well this year. I'm looking forward to a greater turnout and sharing our blessings with those in the community who need it most," Steele said.
