Snowball Streak Ends
The snowballing losing streak ended at nine yesterday against the Twins, 7-3. The bats came alive in the series–22 total runs on 38 hits–but the Phillies lost the first two games by the margin of 20-15.
Jared Eickhoff did a job in holding the Twins to two runs through his six innings. Over the last 17 games, the Phillies have three wins and Eickhoff has all of them. One of the two runs he gave up was unearned. He threw 107 pitches and 21 times to first base. One of the pick-off throws was wild setting up the unearned run. The run scored when Odubel Herrera misjudged a fly ball that fell in for a run-scoring single.
The Phillies pounded 15 hits and got a career-high five RBI game from Freddy Galvis (squeeze bunt, triple, three-run homer). Cesar Hernandez, in the lineup because Tommy Joseph was ill, had four hits, a walk and three runs scored.
Ryan Howard homered to dead centerfield. Read where his trot around the bases took 26.6 seconds, the 87th slowest home run trot this season. Everything seems to be measured these days. Somebody must be extremely bored.
Against the Diamondbacks and Twins, two teams with losing records, the Phillies finished only 1-6. Now, the Giants this weekend. SF has won 11 of their last 12 games.

Go Figure
Going into last night's interleague game the Phillies were last in runs scored in the National League and the Twins held the same distinction in the American League. So, what happens? Twins win, 14-10. Go figure.
The Phillies had a season-high 14 hits, including a season-high four homers. In their six previous games, they scored a total of nine runs. On a night the offense came alive, they lost their eighth in a row as three pitchers gave up a season-high 14 runs on 14 hits. For the Twins, their first game of double figure runs.
For the third straight start, Aaron Nola didn't make to the fourth inning. He's been rocked for 22 hits and 17 earned runs in those three starts. In three innings last night, he threw 71 pitches while giving up eight runs (seven earned). Poor defense didn't help. Command of his pitches, considered his strongest point, has gone haywire.
Maikel Franco broke a 0-17 spin with a third-inning single, his first hit since June 12 when he homered off Papelbon in Washington. Franco hit his 12th homer in the eighth; ninth on the road . . . Odubel Herrera drew his first walk since June 10 . . . Phillies pitchers have given up 100 home runs; same for the Twins . . . Both starters tonight have ERAs over 6.00.

Mickey Time
Mickey Moniak, the Phillies 1st-round selection, left Philly last night for his first trip to Clearwater. Today he'll walk into the Carpenter Complex large clubhouse for the first time. Hanging in a locker will be his first uniform, #15. A lot more "firsts" will be forthcoming and someday, he'll make his first at-bat in the majors. In between, a lot of hard work.
Baseball America named Moniak the High School Player of the Year for 2016.
Gulf Coast League Phillies
Moniak will be assigned to the Gulf Coast League Phillies roster. That season opens Friday in Tampa against the Yankees West squad. (The Yankees and Tigers each have two teams). The Phillies are in the Northwest Division with the Blue Jays, Tigers West and Yankees West. Games Monday through Friday begin at 12 noon; Saturdays, 10 a.m. No games are scheduled for Sundays. Phillies first home game is Saturday vs. Yankees West. Admission is free at Carpenter Complex. Season ends September 1.
Reading: RHS Thomas Eshelman and RHR Alexis Rivero promoted from Clearwater; RHP Reinier Roibal released; CF Roman Quinn sent to rehab at Carpenter Complex.

"It doesn't work that way"
Four batters into the game, the D-Backs scored three runs on four hits off Jeremy Hellickson, who used to pitch for them. He then retired 20 of the next 22 hitters but to no avail as the Phillies anemic offense produced one run….again. They had two on and no out in the ninth but a ground ball double play and strikeout ended a winless homestand (0-6).
It marks the first time the Phillies had a winless homestand (minimum six games) since 0-7 in 1964, September 21-27, the start of a 10-game losing streak that cost them the pennant. Overall they've lost seven in a row at home matching a 2012 drought.
In doing a wrap late in the game, Larry Andersen: "The Diamondbacks scored four in the first inning and after that the Phillies won, 1-0." Scott Franzke chuckled, "Larry, it doesn't work that way."
Elias Sports Bureau
During the winless homestand, the Phillies did not score more than two runs in any game. They are one of three teams to do that. The Montreal Expos on a seven-game homestand in June/July 1991 and the Blue Jays in June 1994, when they were the two-time defending champion.
Well, let's look ahead. Tonight starts three games against the Twins who have the worst record in the majors and then three weekend games in San Francisco, the hottest team currently (8-2) . . . Phils are 3-3 in Target Field and 21-33 in AT&T Park . . . Overall against the Twins, 7-8. Over-all against the Giants, 918-1,254 . . . Nine games left this month. Phillies worst June ever: 4-22 set in 1997. Current record is 4-15.

Gus Triandos becomes the first catcher ever to be behind the plate for no-hitters in each league, catching Bunning's 1958 no-hitter vs. Boston. 18-year-old rookie RHP Rick Wise wins his first major league game in the second game, 8-2.

Snowballing Losses
Game time temperature was 85 degrees. A snowball has no chance to exist when it's that hot. Well, the Phillies losses continued to snowball downhill as the Diamondbacks beat them three games this weekend. The series finale is this afternoon.
Sunday's loss was the sixth straight at home, the longest streak since 0-7 in 2012.
It marks the first time the Diamondbacks have won a series at Citizens Bank Park since 2007. And, it is the first time since 2012 that they lost back-to-back games to Arizona.
22-year-old Zach Eflin rebounded from his rough debut in Toronto last week but suffered his second loss. He left down 2-0 after 5.2 innings having allowed just four hits. The Phillies had a chance to take him off the hook when they loaded the bases with no out in the sixth. Tommy Joseph grounded into a double play which allowed the Phillies lone run. They finished the game with three singles.
After today's game the Phillies fly to Minneapolis where they face the Twins in three games before going to San Francisco for three and Phoenix for three.
For the first time in franchise history, the Phillies are wearing five different uniforms
in a span of five days (6/17-21) … On Friday, the Phillies wore their traditional white uniforms with red pinstripes … Saturday, they wore alternate cream colored uni's … All Major League clubs wore special Father's Day uniforms Sunday with blue accents … This afternoon, the Phillies will break out their alternate day game red jerseys … And on Tuesday night in Minnesota, their traditional road gray uniforms. So far, the Phillies have multi-colored losses.

D-Backs For 4
Best thing about the Blue Jays? Phillies won't see them again until spring training.
In taking the last three games in four against the Phillies, Toronto out-scored them, 31-7. Over their last six games, the Blue Jays scored 52 runs. Their one loss was a 7-0 shutout by the Phillies on Monday night.
In addition to giving up the most runs in a game (13) and hits (17), the Phillies committed four errors including one of Odubel Herrera who caught a ball and then threw it in the stands thinking it was the third out. But, it was the second out.
Phillies pitchers wind up throwing a lot of pitches because the enemy batters work the count while their hitters swing at the first pitch too often. Freddy Galvis and Maikel Franco each were 0-4 last night. Each saw a total of nine pitches. Six Toronto batters saw 20 or more pitches. Experience vs. youth.
In losing seven of their last eight games, the Phillies have been out-scored, 61-19 . . . The fourth-place Diamondbacks (29-39) begin a four-game series tonight that includes day games the next three days . . . Phillies have won four in a row vs. Arizona at Citizens Bank Park. Since the park opened in 2004, Phillies have a 26-11 edge. Over-all against the Diamondbacks, Phillies lead 65-57.

Hard Times
A tough stretch in which the Phillies are playing 19 games out of 23 against teams with winning records mercifully ends tonight vs. Toronto. When that stretch started, the Phillies were 25-19. The date was May 23. Don't look now, but they've gone 5-17 in their last 22 games. Hard times.
Pitching had kept the Phillies in games and was key in producing a winning record. Of the 17 losses, 13 have been by the starters. Jeanmar Gomez has relieved just six times in 22 games, three saves and a blown save/loss. Hector Neris, who had been lights out in the eighth-inning role, has fallen on hard times. He's allowed eight earned runs in his last 6.1 innings after allowing only four in his first 28 innings. Hard times.
Finger pointing the pitching isn't totally fair. The offense, which has struggled since day one, has scored three runs or less in 13 of the 22 games. Hard times.
During the tough stretch, the Phillies split four games with the Brewers. The next seven games are against Arizona (4) and Minnesota (3). Better times.
The loss dropped the Phillies six games under .500, 30-36. On the bright side, the 2015 Phillies didn't win their 30th game until July 17.

Book Signings
The Fightin' Phillies is the title of my new book published by Triumph Books. Larry Andersen wrote a hilarious foreword. I'll be signing:
**This evening, Myerstown (PA) Community Library, 199 N. College Street, 6:00 p.m.-7:30 p.m.
**This Saturday, June 18, Barnes & Noble, 4801 Concord Pike, Wilmington, DE; 1:30 p.m.-3 p.m.
Phils, Jays Now At CBP
It took Zach Eflin two minutes to strike out the first hitter he faced in the majors. Apparently the baseball Gods weren't too happy with that strikeout. "Kid, it ain't gonna be that easy up here." Less than an hour later, he left the mound after just 2.2 innings, allowing nine runs, eight earned. He was tagged for three home runs, one more than he yielded in 68.1 AAA innings.
Toronto's lineup puts a hurt on a lot of pitchers, rookies or grizzled veterans. The Jays' 89 home runs rank fourth highest in the majors.
When the 22-year-old rookie left the game, he sat alone in the Phillies dugout for a while before Carlos Ruiz moved in and chatted. Chooch mentor. Not surprising.
The eight earned runs allowed are the most by a Phillies pitcher in his major league debut since Russ Miller in 1927. The following season, the 28-year-old Miller set a club record by going winless for the entire season, 0-12, in 34 games, 12 starts. No one will ever break that dubious record.
Elias Sports Bureau: Eflin is the third player in modern major-league history to allow nine or more runs in less than three innings pitched in his major league debut. The other two are Stefan Wever for the Yankees in 1982 and A. J. Cole for the Nationals in 2015.
Last Phillies rookie hurler to give up eight earned runs in a game, Gavin Floyd in 2005.
Eflin was the 14th player to make his major league debut for the Phillies since the beginning of the 2015 season. 10 of the 14 are pitchers . . . Phillies pitchers retired the Blue Jays 1-2-3 in just one inning during the two games, the second inning on Monday . . . The same teams play at Citizens Bank Park tonight and tomorrow night. They had a similar series at CBP a year ago. Each team won one, scored 11 runs and hit four homers. The Blue Jays hold a 15-10 edge at CBP . . . Arizona follows for four games.

Eickhoff Shines
After a bleak month of May (1-4, 3.99 ERA), Jared Eickhoff has turned it around this month. He threw six shutout innings in the 7-0 win in Toronto last night. In tossing his 16th quality start out of his first 21, Eickhoff improved to 2-1 this month and lowered his June ERA to 1.37.
It was the Phillies eighth shutout and first since May 22, a game started by Eickhoff. Toronto had scored 21 runs in the previous two games and was riding a three-game winning streak.
The victory ended the Phillies' Monday miseries, 0-8. Kiss that note good-bye.
Win ended a six-game losing streak on the road and four over-all . . . It was the Phillies first shutout of an AL opponent since 3-0 at Oakland on Sept. 20, 2014 . . . Zach Eflin makes his major league debut in the 12:37 game this afternoon. He was 5-2 at Lehigh Valley, losing his last start last Thursday at Charlotte, 2-1.

Monday, Monday
Ryan Howard will be back in the lineup as the DH tonight and Tuesday afternoon as the Phillies are in Toronto for interleague play. The same two teams continue at Citizens Bank Park on Wednesday and Thursday nights.
Toronto holds the upper edge in interleague play against the Phillies, 27-20, including 12-10 at the Rogers Centre.
Ironically, 19 years ago today, the Phillies played their first interleague game and it was against the Blue Jays. RHP Wayne Gomes made his major league debut and wound up the winning pitcher, 4-3, at Veterans Stadium. SS Kevin Stocker got the Phillies first interleague hit, a bunt single in the third inning. RF Darren Daulton hit the Phillies first interleague home run the next day during a 3-2 loss to Robert Person.
Monday, Monday
Here we are. Another dreaded Monday. Why dreaded, you ask. Well, the Phillies are 0-8 on Mondays. Actually 0-13 dating back to last season. Good news: all those losses happened in the United States. We're in Canada tonight. Bad news: Phillies have lost their last three Monday games in this country. Last Monday win, July 15, 2002, 11-8 over the Expos in Olympic Stadium.
Borrowing an excerpt from Monday Monday by The Mamas & The Papas:
Monday, Monday, can't trust that day
Monday, Monday, it just turns out that way
Oh Monday, Monday, won't go away
Monday, Monday, it's here to stay
Oh Monday, Monday
Oh Monday, Monday
Want to feel better? San Diego is 0-10 on Sundays.
Youngest Arm
RH Zach Eflin makes his debut Tuesday afternoon (12:37) against the Blue Jays. The 22-year-old becomes the youngest pitcher on the staff. Eflin, who came to the Phillies in the Jimmy Rollins trade, was 5-2 with a 2.90 ERA at Lehigh Valley. His 0.88 WHIP ranked second lowest in the International League.
At 22 years and 67 days old, Eflin will be the fourth youngest starting pitcher to make his debut for the Phillies since 2000, trailing only Aaron Nola (22.047), Brett Myers (21.341) and Gavin Floyd (21.220).
When he was told by LV manager Dave Brundage on Friday that he was going to the majors, Zach tried calling his dad with the news. His dad was in a meeting and it took 10 calls to reach him. "It was an emotional call," Zach said.
The Phillies took a 4-0 lead after their first three innings on Friday in Nationals Park. From there it wasn't pretty until the Phillies battled back Sunday only to lose in the last of the ninth. Thus the Nats swept their second three-game series over the Phillies.
Adam Morgan had a rough start Sunday, 2 runs in the first on three walks and a hit during a 32-pitch inning. He gave up a home run in the second but didn't buckle. Instead he retired 16 of the next 19, seven on strikeouts. He even doubled and scored a run. Maikel Franco homered off Jon Papelbon in the ninth to give the Phils a 4-3 lead before Jayson Werth's 2-out, 2-run, walk-off single on a 2-2 pitch. Only other time Jayson won a game in similar fashion was 2010 for the Phillies against the Nats.

Mickey #1
Now batting for La Costa Canyon High School, # 2, center fielder Mickey Moniak.
Welcome to the newest Phillie, the number 1 overall player in the draft. An 18-year-old left-handed hitter. Grades high as a hitter, speed and fielding with above average arm and power potential.
He has a commitment to UCLA, Chase Utley's college. One report compared Mickey's skills to Chase. Will gladly take another Chase.
MaXPreps.com (America's Source For High School Sports)
"Already one of the top prospects in the Class of 2016, Moniak raised his value to a new level this year by adding power to his already impressive array of skills. Some recent mock drafts have Moniak as the top high school player chosen, even ahead of pitchers Jason Groome and Riley Pint. He already had above average speed and outstanding defensive instincts, but he greatly improved his power hitting in 2016. After going homerless as a junior, Moniak belted seven his senior year to go with 13 triples. He ended the year batting .476. Could go among the top five picks."
Buster Olney's ESPN tweet: "If Mickey Moniak is an impressive as a pro ballplayer as he was in his post-draft interview, the Phillies will have a star."
Follow the # 1 pick on twitter @MickeyMoniak.
Oh, he graduates tonight. Quite a graduation gift getting a Phillies hat and soon a contract.
Leading off in the second round (42nd overall), the Phillies took an 18-year-old high school right-handed pitcher, Kevin Gowdy. Above average fast ball, slider and change up. Like Moniak, he has a commitment to UCLA. Gowdy tweet: "Honored to have been drafted by the Philadelphia Phillies. Can't wait to see what's next!"
The draft will continue today at 1:00 p.m. with rounds 3-10 and will conclude Saturday, rounds 11-40. Philadelphia's first selection today will be in the third round (78th overall).
Baseball Tonight
Phillies are back in action taking on the Nationals in their park. Phillies swept a three-game series there in late April but Washington returned the favor at Citizens Bank Park a month later.
After this weekend, it's on to Toronto for two games (Monday-Tuesday), then back home for two with the Blue Jays (Wednesday-Thursday). Game times for the next five games are 7:05, 12:05, 4:05, 7:07 and 12:27. Need an alarm clock.
Extended Spring Training

This Date
June 10, 1972
To change their luck, Phillies wear blue road uniforms at home only to lose to Atlanta, 15-3. The blue road uniforms never appeared again at the Vet.
June 10, 1975
3B Mike Schmidt hits a ball off a public address speaker hanging from the Astrodome roof, 117 feet up and 300 feet from home plate. Schmidt settles for a single off LHP Claude Osteen in the Phillies' 12-0 win.

Another great moment in Vet history. 1B Pete Rose needs two hits to surpass Stan Musial as the all-time NL hit leader.

The cover is sized just about right for my car, as it took only a moderate amount of force (didn't pre-heat) to get it on, with a snug fit. Covers up the wear on the wheel, doesn't get hot in the sun, and looks really good.

For a post tribulation rapture it would not be as a thief in the night. We would know to the day 7 years ahead when the rapture would be.
The Day of the Lord's Wrath begins with a blood red moon, darkened sun, a great earthquake, and falling stars. We see this in Rev. 6:12 at the 6th seal. It was also foretold by old testamant prophets and also by Christ on the Mount of Olives. Christ returns at the 6th seal and a multitude of people that no man could number from every tribe and nation appear in heaven, and Rev.6:17 says for that great day of his wrath(EBRAH, God's final judgement wrath) is come and who shall be able to stand. So we see that Christ cuts short the persecution of the saints by Antichrist, Matt 24:22, and then at the 7th seal His Ebrah wrath is poured out with the 7 trumpet judgements and 7 bowls of wrath.

Arizona Cardinals
John Skelton benched in second quarter vs. Falcons
John Skelton's 2012-2013 season took yet another turn Sunday.
Midway through the second quarter of Arizona's game against the Falcons, the former fifth-round pick out of Fordham was replaced in favor of rookie quarterback Ryan Lindley.
Despite three first quarter interceptions by the Cardinals defense, Skelton began the game just 2-for-7 for six yards.
Skelton began the season as the team's starter before suffering a right ankle injury in the team's 20-16 win over the Seattle Seahawks. After Kevin Kolb sustained a rib injury in the fourth quarter of Arizona's Week 6 loss to the Buffalo Bills, Skelton once again took over the starting duties.
In his last three starts, Skelton is 0-3.
Lindley, who was selected in the sixth round by the Cardinals in last April's draft, came into Sunday's game with no career pass attempts.

India's New Paris Pledge: We'll Cut Back On Coal If We Get Help With Renewables Now
CREDIT: AP Photo/Michel Euler
PARIS, FRANCE — Until now, India's position at the Paris climate talks had been that it will massively increase coal production and use without limit. As a result, the country has not been willing to embrace a peak in carbon pollution, even though that will ultimately be crucial if India and the world are going to avoid simultaneous, catastrophic impacts.
But now, senior Indian negotiator Ajay Mathur "says his country will cut back its use of coal, if sufficient cash for renewables emerges from a Paris deal," the BBC has reported.
Mathur said, "We look forward to an agreement that enables financial support from the countries that have developed on the backs of cheap energy, to those who have to meet their energy with more expensive but low carbon energy."
India's original Paris pledge announced in October — its Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (INDC) — had no absolute CO2 target in at all, no cap on total emissions. The country did pledge to boost non-carbon power sources (renewables and nuclear) to 40 percent, up from 30 percent today. That would require some 200 gigawatts of new non-fossil-based power by 2030.
This is a big step in the right direction, but remember that a year ago, China pledged "to deploy an additional 800-1,000 gigawatts of nuclear, wind, solar, and other zero emission generation capacity by 2030 — more than all the coal-fired power plants that exist in China today and close to total current electricity generation capacity in the United States." And as I learned from my trip to China in June, the world's biggest carbon polluter is already exceeding all of its renewable energy targets.
India itself had previously set a goal of 175 GW of power renewable power by 2022. A report this year from their Ministry of New and Renewable Energy concluded, "India has an estimated renewable energy potential of about 900 GW from commercially exploitable sources." That is compared to 34 GW of solar, wind, biomass and small hydropower installed capacity at the end of 2014.
So India can do much more, and it's clear that it will — with financial assistance. Mathur said it was "absolutely" the case that India would replace coal with any additional renewables it was able deploy following a Paris deal:
"We are very clear that solar and wind is our first commitment, hydro and nuclear all of these non-carbon sources are what we will develop to the largest extent we can. What cannot be met by these will be met by coal," he said.
And with rapidly falling prices for key renewable and enabling technologies, the extra money needed is certainly within reach.
Consider that a 2014 solar auction revealed "solar PV is cheaper for Indian users than the electricity price needed to pay for imports of coal from Australia" for new thermal coal-fired power plants. No wonder India's Minister of Energy Piyush Goyal said back in May, "We are confident that in the next year or two, we will be able to stop imports of thermal coal."
Before Paris, the developed countries had promised to put together a $100-billion-a-year pool of money by 2020. Now is the time to go far beyond that. It's time for the public and private sectors to work together to create a massive pool of money to finance trillions of dollars of renewable energy deployment in India and other developing countries.

The New Enlightenment & Mastery
A new era on Earth has begun, one that has been anticipated and spoken of for thousands of years, yet which even the most spiritually advanced knew little of in terms of what this 'new time' would actually look like and how it would operate.
For 26,000 years, masters and meditators have been reaching into their spiritual energies and opening up to the spiritual universe in order to experience the bliss of divine reality. In this new cycle, all the consciousness expansion and spiritual energy will now be directed back towards the planet, bringing spiritual truth into mainstream life, society, and matter on Earth. The personal evolution of each of us in turn is no longer about ascending away from Earth, but activating our full spiritual potential and life mission here on Earth, to create the paradise we all know in our hearts is meant to happen.
The implications of this, for enlightenment and for earthly living, are tremendous, surprising, and a complete turn-around for what many spiritually evolved beings of the previous time believed.
Group Purpose
The purpose of this group is to bring people together to experience the 'new time' energies, living from the heart, the actualising of our Truth, total authenticity of Divine Self, conscious and liberated social interaction, navigating the times we are in, living as a Master, and experiencing the paradise that is being Gaia's children.
This will involve simple gatherings over an afternoon, to talks, workshops and retreats. As much as possible, they will always revolve around being in beautiful nature, and will often be in the Weald countryside of East Sussex.
About Karen
My message has always been:
'You are one with Mother Earth and the Great Spirit, and when you are in total sync with them, you are your truest self on Earth, 'I' of Spirit, spirit embodied: healed, whole, full of love, truth, and fulfilling your life purpose here on Earth with effortless joy.'
My spiritual practice really developed in the 12 years leading up to 2012, with meditation and simply opening up my heart in devotion to the Divine. I knew back then that enlightenment was my goal, that whether it be this lifetime or another, its path was integral to my existence.
After surrendering all of my self to Source, something quite unexpected happened, whereby Source showed me what enlightenment and ascension meant for the beings of the planet now, what it meant that the planet herself is ascending now.
In 2012 I also had an AuraTransformation™ which brought my whole energy being into total sync with the new time energies, so that like the crystal children, my spirit body would become fully present and 'enlightened' in every cell of my physical body.
A main part of my work therefore is now to give AuraTransformation™ to others, yet the gatherings are still a key element in my life purpose work, to allow both those that have been aura transformed, and those that have not and may choose not to, to experience the way of living and being that the new energies are driving us towards.
The experiences I've had of being in the forest with a group, having spent some hours there connecting with Mother Earth, communing with Spirit, through meditation, ceremony, and loving intention, have been so pure, powerful, and beautiful, that I know it is my deepest highest Truth to be in that space with others as much as possible.
I created www.iofspirit.co.uk in 2010 to be a source for Divine Truth, which now also marks and guides the transition into the New Earth's Divine Truth!

Bruce has suggested a nice short walk along the Gwongoorool Pool track at Binna Burra. And before you start wondering: He has checked and, yes, the walk is open
Bruce McCabe - Ph: [masked]
Please make sure your RSVP is up to date the night before and text the Organiser on the day if you find you can't make it at the last minute.
THE HIKE - 6km - approx. 2.5 hours; Grade - easy:
This is a 6 km walk from Binna Burra Information Centre. It is a gentle walk and will allow you time to relax, admire the scenery and to get to know others. On the way we will pass Barrabareen Falls and zigzag down past piccabeen palms to reach the pool. Eels are to be found there.We should be back in time for lunch at the tea house.
After lunch those still keen can wander up to the lodge and admire the magnificent views or try out one of the 1 or 2km walks. We can decide on the day.
Binna Burra section of Lamington National Park - bottom carpark - near the National Park office
Lunch at the Lamington Teahouse
From Nerang, take Price Street out of town and follow the signs 26km to Beechmont. Binna Burra is another 10km on from the roundabout (or go to www.whereis.com, using Binna Burra as destination). Allow 50mins from Surfers, 60 mins from Coolangatta or 90 mins from Brisbane
WHAT TO BRING: Plenty of water, lunch and snacks, good hiking shoes, hat, sunscreen and insect repellent. Recommend a hiking pole and a spare pair of hikers for the creek crossings as it's highly likely you'll get wet feet. Members are also asked to bring a first aid kit on every hike.
We'll pass around the hat again for a $1 contribution to cover our registration on the Meetup website which is around $170 per year. Any additional funds will be donated to the Springbrook SES.
We are not a formal organisation or association and take no responsibility for any mishaps that may occur as a result of our activities. As such, it is up to each individual to make sure they are capable of attempting this track.
Many thanks, Bruce, for organising such a fun bushwalk! The scenery was fantastic, the company was great and the cafe afterwards had a nice atmosphere.

No rain, a little wet underfoot but no problem as the area was so fresh and beautiful after recent rain. The Gwongoorool pools pretty but not inviting enough for a swim in winter...summertime they would be great. Excellent company and the Tree House at Binna Burra such a welcome relaxed atmosphere after the hike. Thanks for leading Bruce:)

What a great way to use up leftover banana bread, even if it's getting a bit dried out. This is even better if you lightly toast or grill the banana bread before adding the toppings to it. I think I slightly overcooked my sauce, because it hardened up a bit on top of the ice cream. No matter, though; it didn't slow us down one bit, lol. Thanks for thinking this treat up and posting the recipe! Made for PAC Spring 2013

I was going to get some opinions on what you guys think the stock price will do in the coming days up to the 17th? I do know that at some point before the 17th you will see a big sell off.... I did some research and it has been denied 2 times by the approval bored but now it seems they decided not to go with the FDA's safety concerns and just re file for people that need the drug despite the risk... I've seen that its been approved in several other countries and it seems to mean there should not be any reason why the FDA doesn't approve it the way they are filing this time around but who knows
Do some DD you lazy pos. Obviously, you know little about anything related to this company.
Rumor has it FDA has already passed it but paper work needs to go through.
This proves my theory. You're an imbecile.
Hopefully that is true, just bought some jan $5 call options, that would make for a nice quick flip if the FDA approval happens, and still enough time after for the price to come back based on Euro sales.
Sentiment: Buy
Rumor Willis?
I think it is going to go down heavily, and then go back up. Sell now, buy again at 4. Just my two cents
Sentiment: Buy
i don't think anyone cares what you think
Sorry about some of the spelling I am using voice to text
Short the mfg of the unit, youll get rich!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Janitza is a girl who's smile lights up the whole room. Wherever she goes, she's constantly cheering people up and spreading positive vibes. She is one of the sweetest, most caring and beautiful people you'll ever meet in your life time. once you meet her, you'll never wanna let go. shes always doing cute things just to put a smile on her friends face, she'll text you goodmorning, you'll wake up to a paragraph explaining how much you mean to her and she'll just do everything and anything in her power to make her friends smile. She's extremely popular, so if your lucky enough to become friends, don't even let go. You'll have silly photo shoots, have late night talks and even drive to chickfila and Starbucks. When youre down, when your mom makes you mad or even when your just angry for no reason, she'll be there, giving advice and calming you down no matter what the situation. Before you know it, you'll become super close with her and never wanna let go, she'll become you're everything and she's definitely worth it.

I am trying to run a simple ant build that has one target that runs a bash shell script within cygwin. When I run the build, the target seems to run but the executable does not. Instead I get a Java IO Exception: Create Process error=193. If I run the script standalone it works fine. At the minute I am using a test.sh which only has one command, echo a message to the screen.
I understand that running scripts from cygwin is maybe not best practise, but integrating the scripts functions into the ant build is something I want to do after I get this short term solution working.
My XML is as follows...
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<project name="TestProject" default="exec_build_config" basedir=".">
<property name="test" location="test.sh"/>

My shell script...
echo "testing !!!"
It just doesn't work :( Any help would be appreciated! Thanks

Victor Gregg recounts the battle of Sidi Rezegh in Nov 1941
Hear an outtake from Radio 2's special documentary for Remembrance Week. 92-year-old war veteran Victor Gregg tells his own incredible story of WW2. John Hurt narrates this moving documentary on BBC Radio 2.
Here, Victor recounts the battle of Sidi Rezegh in November 1941. This clip includes some strong language and disturbing images.
Executive Producer Andy West says: "We didn't have enough space for this stark and very moving account of Sidi Rezegh. It was probably the most difficult edit I had to make. Victor found it tough talking about the young lads who were killed in their tanks, so early in their military careers."

WASHINGTON - The Georgetown University men's tennis team came away with a 4-2 decision against the Lehigh University Mountain Hawks on Saturday at Bellehaven Country Club in Alexandria, Va. Lehigh won the doubles point but four Hoya singles wins sent the Mountain Hawks (6-4) to their third-straight setback. The victory improved Georgetown to 7-3 on the season.
In doubles play, the lone win came as Georgetown topped the Mountain Hawks' No. 2 team as freshman Alex Tropiano (Laurel Hollow, N.Y./Cold Spring Harbor) and sophomore Andrew Dottino (New York, N.Y./The Pendleton School) won, 8-4.
In singles play, Georgetown picked up wins at No. 1 and No. 4 and then added wins at the bottom two singles flights after taking the first set in both via tiebreaks. No. 1 Andrew Bruhn (Storrs, Conn./E.O. Smith) defeated Mark Goldberg 6-3, 6-4 before Dottino took the No. 4 match 6-3, 6-4 over Matt Savran.
No. 5 sophomore Casey Distaso (The Woodlands, Texas/Edmond North) downed Andrew Krentz 7-6, 6-2 and freshman John Brosens (Bedford, N.Y./Brunswick School) battled for the clinching point at No. 6 beating DJ Goldblum in three sets 7-6, 3-6, 6-3.
The Hoyas will face Lynn University on Tuesday in Boca Raton, Fla., at 4:30 p.m.

I have this issue about orphan IBM JVM process being created in the process tree:
For example:
C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\bin>wsadmin -lang jython -f "C:\Hello.py"
Hello.py has the simple implementation:
import time
i = 0
while (1):
i = i + 1
print "Hello World " + str(i)
My machine has such JVM information:
C:\Program Files\WebSphere\java\bin>java -verbose:sizes -version
-Xmca32K RAM class segment increment
-Xmco128K ROM class segment increment
-Xmns0K initial new space size
-Xmnx0K maximum new space size
-Xms4M initial memory size
-Xmos4M initial old space size
-Xmox1624995K maximum old space size
-Xmx1624995K memory maximum

-Xiss2K java thread stack initial size
-Xssi16K java thread stack increment
-Xss256K java thread stack maximum size
java version "1.6.0"

JIT - r9_20090902_1330ifx1
While the program is running, I tried to kill it and subsequently I found an orphan IBM JVM process in the process tree. Is there a way to fix this issue? Why is there an orphan process in the first place? Is there something wrong with my code?
I really don't believe that my simplistic code is wrongly implemented. Any suggestions?
