Rock bottom is giving hits to Barmes and Russell Martin
I am trying to guess the shape of the strikezone. I think zebra. A dancing zebra.
Ump zone is so tight but still reds have five k's. lol.
It was my understanding that they wanted Chapman in the rotation to replace Leake. Further, the organization did absolutely nothing in the offseason to add rotation depth behind the five they planned for, figuring that Leake would be that depth.
And then, scant weeks before Opening Day, they reverse course. So now we have Leake, a low-ceiling junkballer that has never been more than sporadically effective, throwing every fifth day while one of the best pitchers in baseball features only when the Reds are leading or tied, and then for one inning tops. And zero major league ready rotation depth.
I really do not get it.
Bruce shoots one right back up the middle.
Nice! Hanahan with a liner to left. 2 on no outs.
Six k's through 3 innings...we are 3rd in MLB in k's. We aren't helping ourselves by not making contact.
Nice approach hanahan. Cozart must room with Heisey. Another pitch that looked outside. Strike!
The season is young, but Leake's act is very old.
"Since I've been with the Reds in 1989, we've never had a farm system this loaded," Bowden said. "If we were the New York Yankees and had unlimited dollars, we could have traded for Colon, (Jeff) Weaver, Rolen, (Cliff) Floyd, (Kenny) Rogers and Finley and gotten them all -- and still held onto our top five prospects. That's an amazing statement."
Nice block by Martin.
This is where a guy with Frazier's versatility is nice to have...if Hanahan gets hot, he can play 3rd and Frazier can cover left field.
"Okay you guys, pair up in threes!" --Yogi Berra
Zach out on a grounder to third. He just missed a double down the line the previous hack.
Devin really needs to get going with the bat. With Hanny struggling, now is his chance to grab the reins.

|ESPN.com: Opinion
|[Print without images]
On Tuesday night LeBron James watched as his former teammates on the Cleveland Cavaliers lost in absolutely epic fashion to the Lakers. Kobe Bryant and company didn't just hand the Cavs their 11th straight loss, they delivered it to their doorstep turd-bomb style, like Ronald Miller in "Can't Buy Me Love." The 112-57 defeat inspired James to pen this tweet, "Crazy. Karma is a b****.. Gets you every time. Its not good to wish bad on anybody. God sees everything!"
It's no secret that James and Cavs owner Dan Gilbert left things on a sour note. When the words "I'm taking my talents to South Beach" left James' mouth on "The Decision," they caused an immediate and irreparable break between Gilbert and his former star. In his now infamous open letter to the King of Akron, Gilbert not only ripped his hometown boy for his "narcissism" and "cowardly betrayal," he also vowed that the Cavs would win it all before the Heat does. After all that went down post-Decision, it's hardly a surprise to learn that James is rooting for his former boss to fail.
But what about his former teammates? Early last month when the new-look Heat made their first trip to Cleveland, James' old friends in maroon and gold welcomed him with smiles and laughter. While Miami's Big Three pounded them into dust, James' old running mates joked around with him, diluting the boos of the Q faithful. While the fans made it clear to James that he's Cleveland's own Benedict Arnold of Basketball, his old teammates never once made him feel like a chump for leaving for greener pastures.
Well guess what, LeBron? The same guys who treated you kindly when you came back to face them in Cleveland, who laughed with you as you choreographed intricate pregame rituals, who hung out with you on the team plane and played with your kids and helped out at your charity events, those same guys are the ones getting embarrassed on the court every night. They may not all be superstars like you, but they're professional basketball players all the same. They live and die with this sport, just like you do. They put their time, their energy, their hearts and souls into the game and right now it's beating them down. Your old teammates -- friends -- have lost 21 of their past 22 games, and you decide to celebrate their failure and gloat on a public stage? You wanna talk about karma? You're in for a real treat, buddy.

Because at 160,000 years, the party is just getting started.

One man is trading his desk job protecting environmental laws for a new conservation project of his own design.
Paul Moinester, former senior legislative assistant in the U.S. House of Representatives, is embarking on a six-month, 20,000-mile adventure to help protect wild fish and their habitat. He is meeting with people along the way who also work to protect wild fish, and sharing conservation stories in a blog.
Moinester's conservation project, "An Upstream Journey," intends to spark interest in others to join the fight for wild fish and habitat protection.
To follow Moinester on his journey, check out Orvis News which will feature blog posts on its website. You can also follow Moinester's conservation project on his website, An Upstream Journey.

The center's role is particularly important today, he says, because major pharmaceutical companies have mostly neglected autism, and breakthroughs in decoding the human genome are now providing researchers an unprecedented opportunity to understand the innermost workings of autism.
More than a decade ago, it was discovered that cancer is a genetic disease, making the defective genes a target of drug discovery campaigns and resulting in the first round of cancer drugs specific to the molecular lesion. Thus began an optimistic new era of cancer treatments.
Gargus thinks autism research is at a point where it can begin duplicating the trajectory of cancer research. "It is now clear that most autism, like cancer, has a genetic basis and that while rare forms of both are caused by mutations in single genes, many defective genes in a pathway generally need to work together to produce disease," he says.
By determining the mechanisms by which malfunctioning genes affect the common neural pathways linked to autism, Gargus believes, it will be possible to design or repurpose existing drugs to normalize the function of those channels. Like cancer therapy, this may well require a synergistic cocktail of drugs that act on distinct but interacting targets.
Three separate drug discovery efforts by UC Irvine neuroscientists involving these neural pathways are being integrated into CART.
Pharmacology professor Kelvin Gee is testing compounds that stabilize the firing rate of brain cells; psychiatry & human behavior professor Gary Lynch is using molecules called ampakines to increase growth factors in brain cells that allow for normal signaling; and Daniele Piomelli, the Louise Turner A

I bet Im throwing off the statistics here. I'm willing to undercut every other woman in a GIS job to get a job!
There is no pay gap in the way that you think. You can't just take the average pay of women and compare it to the average pay of men and claim that that proves a pay gap. Men prefer types of jobs that tend to pay more (tend to be non-social jobs) while women prefer types of jobs that pay less (tend to be social jobs).
I just love how people say "Pay gap!" and then bash republicans for not supporting a bill to diminish the alleged 'pay gap' without even referencing what the pay gap even is or refers to. The article itself doesn't even reference what it means by pay gap. Absolutely pathetic.
The post was more to pointing out an inconvenient irony. Whereas democrats continue to assert these truths about the "middle class", the policies they sell for the most part do almost nothing to improve the situation of the people who actually comprise of the middle class.
At least not directly.

You're welcome to google the studies yourself (some of them are public, some aren't, so I really can't give you the ones I read which aren't), I'm only relaying what I learned from my studies on the subject several years ago (and no, things to not change that quickly over a few years).
Yes, across the board women make on average less than men, but in some jobs women are paid more, or pretty darn equally =/-5%, which makes the average pay gap different and lack meaning in comparison to the specific pay gaps in specific fields and professions.

Home is not a place
Home is not a place.
We become homesick because we get attached to things that we love. Which are usually things that are familiar to us like the house we grew up in. But feeling homesick can also mean something else, people who travelled or lived abroad for longer periods of time might already know where I'm going with this.
I never experienced being homesick in my life. Ever since I was a little girl I loved ...
A Food Theme
... spotted a man sporting a full sized Russian flag. He was making reasonable progress, but labouring the steps a bit. he told us the airline had lost all his luggage, including his boots and he had had to buy everything new when he arrived in Nijmegen. He reckoned he'd lost three toenails. How he could walk that distance in new boots was amazing. I gave him the gladioli I'd been carrying, as he deserved it more than anybody else we'd met ...
Linking Arms
... These old ladies became known as the Saggy Grandmas (Saggy being a distortion of one of their names). Hence, I was thrilled when I came across a whole gaggle of Saggy Grandmas next to the roadside. I wished my own Saggy Grandmas had been there to share some thoughts and swap walking stick news.
I walked past some inflatable cows, the perennial dancing lion, who is there every day having his ears blasted by overly loud music, and a garden full of hand-made ...
Day 82... A train tour of Germany!
Good morning. Today is actually Tuesday and we are in a small town called Lunteren. It's 7.30 am, Paul is still asleep and it's still quite dark outside which is a little unusual. So time to catch up on more of the blog... Rewind to Sunday ... Today we left Nürnberg. We were a little sad to go considering it was such a short time here and we hadn't nearly enough time to see everything and get a feel for the place. We will have to return! But in order to ...

I'M RUNNING. It's only the second week of May, and already, the heat is getting oppressive. It's supposed to be ninety by noon and climbing. The weather forecast said we might break a record today. I'm wearing nothing but my running shoes, a pair of low-cut socks and red athletic shorts, yet I feel like the heat has fallen on me like a wet blanket. I shouldn't have gotten drunk last night, should have got a better night's sleep. I should have done a lot of things different. I'm thinking, maybe I shouldn't have joined a fraternity.
Running up Caddo Hill, the steepest hill in Weatherford, Oklahoma, and my lungs are burning, sweat pouring down my face, stinging my eyes. The air is uncharacteristically calm, and for the first time in a long time I get off my pace, start dragging my feet. I can hear the souls of my shoes sticking to the asphalt, and I'm thinking about walking the last mile of my planned course when I see a white and pink Suzuki Samurai cresting the hill. I recognize the driver, Holly Holcomb.
I'm surprised when Holly slows down, edging her Samurai toward my side of the road. She has some music playing real loud, Under Pressure by that guy from Queen and David Bowie.
"You look hot," she says.
She's doesn't sound turned on, just concerned. I stop running and walk toward her, grateful for the excuse to rest. I get a stitch of pain in my right side and want to lean forward, hands on my knees, but I don't want to appear weak. Instead, I put my hands behind my head and arch backwards, flexing my abdominal muscles, showing off my trim waist. I stop a few feet from the Samurai when I get a whiff of my overwhelming odor.
"You sure do run a lot," Holly says.
"Yep," I reply. I'm trying to suppress my labored breathing. "I run… ev-ry day."
Holly smiles. She has clean, even teeth, bright white. Her lips are full but not thick, perfect. I like the way she pulls her hair back into a bushy ponytail and the way she ties a blue scarf in a knot, like Madonna. She's wearing a tank top with thin, white shoulder straps plunging toward her breasts. She turns toward me, her right breast nudging the steering wheel.
"You want some water?"
I can only nod. She tosses me a bottle of cold water she gets from a cooler in her back seat. I open the bottle and drink gratefully.
"I really admire your commitment," Holly says. "What you did last night took some courage."
Yeah, last night, I'm thinking. Shit, last night…
I was getting ready for work when Mick and Jimmy got back from Juarez. They left last Tuesday afternoon just after finishing their final exams, bragging about going on a road trip to blow off some steam, to get laid. The guys had gathered on the expansive front porch of the Phi Delta Phi House, a large two-story house with red bricks and white trim a block south of campus. They greeted our prodigal brothers with a twelve pack of Schafer's beer. God, Schafer's beer, the guys must be low on money to be drinking that cheap shit.
Mick reclined against a brick column on the porch, opened a can of beer and drank deep, grimaced. "This shit's warm," he said, but he took another drink, anyway. Mick wasn't the kind to waste beer, no matter how bad it was.
He was a handsome guy, perfect hair, dark eyes, and suave. I didn't understand why he went looking for whores down in Juarez when he could get almost any girl he wanted here on campus.
Jimmy laughed, nudged Mick with his elbow. "This guy is my hero. He's a machine." Jimmy was Mick's little brother, his obnoxious protégé, but he wasn't as good looking, not bad really, just ordinary with light brown hair, a thin face and an average build.
"Shut up," Mick said.
"My friend, my brother, Mick - he screwed three women in one hour, went and had a couple of cerveses, and screwed two more."
Mick laughed.
"And the next night he went and did the same, ten women in one weekend. Like I said, he's a machine."
The guys laughed, a mixture of oos and ahs, impressed and disbelieving. Someone said, "Bullshit." I think it was Rodney.
Mick shrugged it off, guzzled some more beer. He tossed me a can. "You're not drinking. What's your problem?"
I set the can of beer on the rail of bricks surrounding the porch. "Can't," I said. "I'm on my way to work."
I thought that would've been obvious since I was wearing my Kentucky Fried Chicken uniform: brown pants and beige shirt, a dorky brown visor with a red KFC emblazoned on the bill.
Mick smiled, crunched the already empty can of beer in his right hand. "Good, then you'll be bringing home some dinner."
I nodded. "I hope so. Depends on what's left over."
"C'mon, Chicken Man, you can make some extra, take care of your brothers, right?"
Yeah, Chicken Man – the stupid nickname my fraternity brothers gave me during initiation because I shared my take-home leftovers with them. "Sure," I said. "I'll do what I can."
Jimmy continued bragging about their adventure south of the border. "Then we went to a live sex show, watched this donkey and this girl… God, its dick had to be this long." He held his hands about two feet apart.
I didn't want to hear the rest, so I tied to hustle past the guys without further comment. Jimmy grabbed my arm and made me stand fast.
"Listen up," he announced. "I'm nominating our esteemed brother, Mick, for the Back in the Saddle Again Award."
The guys clapped their hands, enthusiastic hoots and hollers.
The Back in the Saddle Again award was given to the fraternity member who had the most adventurous or the most numerous sexual exploits in a given academic year. Mick had already won the award two times, and judging by his exploits in Juarez, he was angling for an unprecedented third year in a row.
Mick stood up, took a bow and kind of limped toward the front door of the house. He grabbed his crotch and winced. "When I get back, I'll tell y'all about the bitch who gave me the clap."
Rodney drove me to work. He has a 1969 Chevy Chevelle, red with black racing stripes. It's jacked up in the back and has chrome wheels, big tires with white letters. The engine sounded ferocious, no purring there, more like a long predatory growl.
We share a bedroom in the back of the house. He sleeps in a king size waterbed while I have a twin bed stuck halfway into a closet, which isn't as bad as it sounds. I set up my stereo on some shelves in there, and when Rodney brings a girl into the room, I put on some headphones and listen to music so I don't have to hear their moans and groans while they're having sex. Rodney's also my fraternity big brother, one of my closest friends. He's a pharmacy student and a basketball player, an all American guy complete with a boyish, freckled face. He's always telling me I need to get laid.
"The guys are worried," he said. "They're starting to wonder about you."
"What?" I ask, but I think I already know the answer.
"They're talking. They think you might be gay."
I didn't respond. Anger churned inside me, the injustice of it all. How could they worry about me being gay when they think what Mick did to that pledge last fall was just all in fun? Mick had a drinking contest with a pledge downstairs in basement of our house. We called it the titty room because we had a big painting of at least a dozen bare-breasted, Romanesque women down there. It also served as a room where we had our initiation rites. Anyway, Mick had convinced this pledge to give him a blowjob, told him it was a rite of passage, and the poor drunken guy fell for it. After that, the pledge was labeled a fag and didn't make it into the fraternity, but everyone thought Mick was still cool. It didn't make sense to me.
Rodney stopped at the red light at Main and Custer. Weatherford was one of the largest towns in Western Oklahoma, but it felt small to me. I had been raised in Oklahoma City, was used to going miles and miles before coming to the edge of civilization. I stared south along Custer, past the Tautfest Furniture and Appliance gallery, past some warehouses and barns out into the wide expanse of wheat starting to turn gold, almost ready for the harvest. I wanted to be running out there, feeling the wind, smelling the wheat, hearing nothing but my breathing and the rhythmic pounding of my feet on asphalt. It was the closest thing to bliss for me.
"Hey, Jeff, you okay?"
I nodded. The light turned green and Rodney swung a left going east on Main through downtown Weatherford, past several motel complexes, The Taco Factory, Hardees and Wal-Mart.
"Rodney, I need to tell you something."
His eyes got big, and he had an uncertain smile on his face. Rodney was a handsome guy, probably the most handsome guy in the fraternity with smoldering brown eyes and light brown hair. He had an air of class, of dignity and discipline. He often wore slacks, seersucker shirts and a sport jacket. Some of the guys liked to call him Otter after that character in the movie Animal House. His father was a colonel in the field artillery down in Ft. Sill, and Rodney had been raised a military brat, had attended boarding schools. He was smart and cultured, so I thought I could trust him with my secret.
"When I was in high school," I began, hesitantly. "I made a promise to stay celibate until I got married."
Rodney exhaled forcefully. I hadn't realized he'd been holding his breath. "That's it?" he said jubilantly. "That's your big secret?"
"Yeah, that's it."
"No shit, wow. I thought you were going to tell me you were gay. Man, what a trip."
We were at the intersection of Main and Washington. Going east from there was the onramp to I-40 heading back to Oklahoma City. The Kentucky Fried Chicken was near the exit ramp just north of the intersection, a good location that brought lots of road business. We stayed pretty busy.
"So, you're a virgin." Rodney said. His eyes got big again. "Wow, how do you do it?"
"I run a lot," I admitted.
Rodney nodded thoughtfully. "Yeah, you do. Holy shit, you could run all day." Then he kind of frowned. "Why'd you join a fraternity then?" He asked this like he was accusing me of something.
"For the brotherhood, the comradery," I said. Those were the official reasons to join a fraternity, I knew, but they were really the reasons I joined. I loved hanging out with the guys, playing Hacky Sack out in front of the house, playing a pickup game of tag football, the meeting rituals, the initiation rites. I was hoping my membership in a fraternity would benefit me all my life, to be part of a brotherhood of men who had a common bond.
Rodney laughed. "Bullshit. That's what you're supposed to say. You're not a pledge anymore, Jeff."
"It's true."
"Man, I feel sorry for you. I'll bet you masturbate all the time."
I shook my head.
"Well, fuck me," Rodney mused. Then he turned toward me. "Well, not literally, I mean. Just kidding you know."
"I'm not gay."
"I know. I know. Just celibate."
"Until marriage."
"Yeah, right."
My boss, Bob, is a guy who quit high school, started working at a KFC, worked his way up to manager, then got a loan and bought a franchise. He's pretty well off, drives a nice car, one of those brand new Nissan Pathfinders, but he's not much to look at, pudgy and balding with a ridiculous mustache thick enough to be a hair brush. He thinks I ought to be one mean motor scooter when it comes to girls, and I guess I could be, but I made a promise.
The evening shift was pretty slow, and Bob kept hanging around the kitchen, talking to me, cracking jokes.
"There's this guy," he said. "He goes to a whore house, and all the hookers laugh at him because he has the word 'Shorty' tattooed on his dick. The madam takes pity on him, offers a free ride and takes him to her boudoir where they have a romping good time. Afterwards, she looks worn out, a complete mess. When the other hookers ask what happened she replies, "When I got that guy hard his tattoo said, 'Shorty's Bar and Grill Albuquerque, New Mexico."
Bob laughed like crazy, his belly shaking, drool clinging to his mustache. I got the joke, but it didn't seem funny to me, so I faked a laugh to avoid offending my boss. I don't think he bought it, though, and he looked at me like I was some kind of freak in a freak show.
"What's the matter, Jeff, too raunchy for you? Too dirty for your virgin ears?"
When he said the word virgin, I bit my lip. I didn't want to say something stupid. I needed that job. I wasn't rich. I didn't have a car. I was going to school on a drama scholarship, and though that paid for my tuition and books, it didn't pay for room and board and other living expenses. Plus, though Bob gave me a lot of shit about women and sex, he was a pretty cooperative boss, altering my hours to accommodate me when I got a part in a university play. He even came to my plays, sometimes.
"I liked the joke," I said.
Bob frowned. "Are you sure you're not queer? Not that there's anything wrong with that you know." He raised his right hand to show sincerity. "Some of my best friends are gay."
I thought, yeah right, and I walked over to the Original Recipe preparation table. I was starting to run low on flour, had enough for another batch of chicken, maybe. What was left had a lot of doughy clumps. I started sifting the flour, glad to have something to do. When I finished sifting the flour, I took the screen from the bottom of the table and dumped the clumps into a trash can. Bob came up behind me, grabbed my ass. I jumped. I might have spun around, hit him in the face with an elbow, but my hands were full. I managed not to drop the sifter, but I slipped in a pool of grease, stumbled backward. Bob caught me, held me a little too long.
"I knew you'd fall for me someday," he said.
I went rigid, excited yet mortified. What the hell was this all about? My mind raged with conflicting emotions, gratified by Bob's touch yet horrified about what it could mean. I twisted away from him and went back to the freezer. I stood there in the cold for a long time, letting it wash over me. I even jogged in place for awhile, pretending I was running through an arctic night, my feet crunching on the tundra. It calmed me down. Then I grabbed a couple bags of chicken, walked back to the kitchen, dumped them into the tub of flour and started breading the various pieces: wings, legs, thighs and breasts. I arranged them on the fry basket making sure they were spaced far enough apart to keep the breading from fusing the pieces together while they cooked. After that I placed the fry basket into the deep vat of cooking grease, shut the lid on the pressure cooker and set the timer for fifteen minutes.
Bob had returned to the front counter, was waiting on a young woman who had ordered a two piece dinner and a Coke. She had long blond hair, wore glasses – not the kind that detract from a woman's looks, but the kind that accentuate her intelligence, enhance her mystery. I recognized her. She and I had a class together last fall, Sociology with Dr. Wright.
There was still a lot of chicken in the warmer, a big glass rectangle with heating lamps. We probably already had more than we needed to get through the next hour of business. After Bob finished waiting on the young woman, he came back to the kitchen again, laughing like nothing had happened between us.
"Boy, that chick was a fox," he said, showing his age. "I'd fuck her in a heartbeat."
I washed my hands in the sink along the back wall of the kitchen, started to fill the sink with hot water, getting prepared for the closing cleanup. I sprinkled some detergent in the water, watched the bubbles grow and grow, mounting higher and higher. I could see my face reflected in some of the larger bubbles, a myriad of images, perspectives and distortions, all of them me. Then I wondered which one of them was the real me.
The pressure cooker started to whistle, expelling steam like a tea pot.
"Did you just put down another basket of Original?" Bob asked, agitated.
I turned around, faced him.
"We're closing in forty-five minutes. We don't need any more chicken."

As the sun sets all the small mosques call the faithful to prayers and light up the minarets like Christmas trees.

Plus he would have been the only contestant whose "ambitions" didn't include invading the Ukraine or getting completely legless on cheap vodka by the end of the evening.

I am still really busy producing much needed FEMpads to send to young women round the world who have NO access to feminine hygiene products.During my various fundraising activities I have met the most wonderful women from many different backgrounds, faiths, beliefs. It has been my privelege to get to know and learn from women of all kinds and my life has been so enhanced. When I originally organised an Auction of Promises I purposely chose a committee of friends from diverse groups including Muslims (like me), Christians (including Quakers), Pagans and others who hold no particular spiritual beliefs. We worked together fabulously with incredible results and to me this was as important as raising funds.Earlier this year I was invited to attend a local feminist group - something I had never considered. Once again, the support I have received has been overwhelming and I love getting to know other women who are so passionate about their beliefs and making the world a much nicer place for ALL my sisters.
I have just completed attending four sessions at a Friends Meeting House where I was invited to attend their Sunday group. Once again I was so impressed to observe this quiet and respectful group of people who so generously 'invited me' into their circle. The funds raised over four weeks collections were donated to FEMpads and I have been asked to arrange a lunch session to enable the women there to meet Muslim sisters. I feel honoured to have been asked and will soon be getting this sorted.
Last week I was invited to Derby to speak at the Derbyshire Inspirational Women Awards 2015. A wonderful raffle was held and once again all proceeds will be donated to FEMpads.
p>So let ALL us sisters work in harmony to break down barriers between different faiths and backgrounds. Let us overcome previous misunderstandings and fears.
I PROMISE you it will be so rewarded and I certainly look forward to getting to know many more sisters as I further promote 'It's A Girl Thing - FEMpads'!
I absolutely love the story of how World Pulse is working in you and for the women of the world. i am hoping that the new website will add a tab for "interfaith" or for "spirituality and religion." It is one of the most divisive issues in our world right now, and we need to hear how women handle issues around different customs.
Thank you, Sahron, for being such a wonderful example of, and catalyst for, harmony among humans.
Dear Sharon,
I love your words about women coming together from all different faith backgrounds. When we focus on our commonality and come together for causes, we harness such positive energy and become uplifting forces in the world.
Warm regards,
Lisa Kislingbury Anderson

At this point, DS9 is an exciting playground of stories and characters, so the decision to focus this entire episode on just one of those stories and two of those characters was bizarre.
Yeah. The idea seems to have been that these two characters needed some quiet time with each other and a last adventure together. But... I don't think it needed to be in isolation at all. Even if they needed to use the main DS9 set, I think a more straight-forward story would have worked much better.
Just a misfire.
I agree about the first 15 minutes being very strong, in passing. They made a mistake by resorting to such a gimmick when it wasn't necessary at this point at all.
It seems to be a tendency that Trek writers have. I guess because the standard Trek episode has historically involved a tech gimmick of some kind fairly often.

Finding A Gas Safe Engineer
Check out this exerpt from an article from renfrewshire council about choosing a gas engineer.
"Only qualified gas engineers should install and maintain appliances – including gas boilers, ovens and freestanding cookers.
Any work involving gas requires a fully qualified Gas Safe-registered gas fitter.
Every trader on the Gas Safe Register carries an identity card.
A gas engineer has to have the necessary knowledge to install pipe work from the gas meter to, for example, a gas boiler located in the kitchen. This can include lifting up floorboards, drilling through walls and installing ventilation ducts through the exterior wall to provide ventilation for a gas appliance.
A Gas Safe-registered gas engineer may also be a competent electrician and registered with the Corgi building regulations electrical competent persons scheme. This enables them to install the necessary wiring and controls so heating installations meet building regulations requirements.
Anyone proposing to carry out work on a gas appliance is required by law to be on the Gas Safe Register. You can check an engineer or firm's registration on the Gas Safe Register website or by calling directly on 0800 408 5500."
We highly recommend in London for boiler installation Plumb fixit Greenwich. They are highly skilled engineers. boiler repair greenwich is where they started out and have gone on to make a name for themselves in the local area.

As for altering the subjects to get what we are after, or staging, perhaps if the shot doesn't "appear" staged, then we have successfully achieved our goal.
Remember a motion picture (movie) is an entirely staged event, but that doesn't mean the emotion and magic between the people isn't real and doesn't necessarily affect us as spectators any differently than a real event. There were a lot of people crying during the movie Titanic. And some for the right reasons. Obviously some because they could never get those 2 hours and their money back.

Letter: Pintail Point group thanks council for emergency vehicle
Michael Bennett, Anderson
Pintail Point group thanks council
On behalf of the Pintail Point Association and the citizens of the southwestern corner of Anderson County, I express our appreciation to the Anderson County Council for recently providing a quick-response vehicle at the Williford and Center Rock Fire Stations. We especially recognize the leadership of Councilman Tommy Dunn in advocating this life-saving equipment for our area.
In the past, wait times for emergency response were too long to be protective of the health and life of our neighbors. Availability of this vehicle will significantly reduce the response time.
We also thank the great volunteers who staff our Williford Fire Station, who have been preparing themselves for some time to be ready to receive and proficiently operate this vehicle and its equipment.
We hope you will join us in a show of support and appreciation with a significant turnout from Anderson County at the open house on May 25 at the Williford Fire Station on S.C. 187 at Williford Road.

The Britain Incident, 1769-1770:
Anglo-Hispanic Tensions
in the Western Gulf
the Treaty of Paris (1763). The capture of Havana by English
forces near the end of the Seven Years' War had focused attention on
Spain's military weakness in North America. The English occupation
of East and West Florida-the price of Britain's withdrawal from
Cuba-created a permanent menace to the valuable Spanish posses-
sions ringing the Gulf of Mexico. Sensing its vulnerability in this
area, Spain worked tirelessly to upgrade its colonial defenses: Mexico's
Gulf port cities were reinforced, Cuba's militia forces were reorganized
and placed in a state of military readiness, Spanish Louisiana's border
was fortified, and Texas officials were ordered to upgrade defenses to
repel anticipated English invasions.-
Texas was clearly the weak link in Spain's defensive perimeter.
Chronically underpopulated, poorly defended, and constantly beset
by Indian raids, the province was the neglected stepchild of Mexico.
Hence, it lacked the capability of defending its extended coastline
against the expected English attack. An English invasion appeared in-
creasingly imminent in the late 1760s, as Britain and Spain parried and
