Brewers' Wily Peralta has things to work on
Featuring a fastball that tops out around 96 mph and a nasty slider, Wily Peralta has arguably the best pure stuff in the Milwaukee Brewers' starting rotation.
But at just 23 years of age and with only five major-league starts under his belt coming into the season, the big right-hander finds himself way behind the curve when it comes to experience.
Peralta's first opportunity in 2013 to try and strike a balance between the two came on Wednesday night at Miller Park, in what wound up being a 7-3 Brewers loss to the Colorado Rockies.
Peralta turned in the longest outing by a Milwaukee starter so far on the young season at 5 1/3 innings, and kept his team in the game by allowing four earned runs on six hits and three walks.
But he also allowed four of the six leadoff batters he faced to reach base, and two of those came around to score in what was a 4-2 deficit for the Brewers when he departed.
"He was behind in the count," manager Ron Roenicke said. "First-pitch strikes were not good. He's got great stuff, but he's got to learn to get it over the plate, get ahead of hitters. These guys right now, they're pretty hot swinging the bat. But we've got to do a better job of pitching."
Peralta came in on the heels of an exhibition start against the Chicago White Sox late last week. He went 4 1/3 innings in that one, allowing four hits, two earned runs and three walks to go along with three strikeouts.
He was throwing to a familiar face behind the plate in Martin Maldonado, as the two worked together frequently the previous two seasons both in the minor leagues and again in Milwaukee when Peralta was called up last September.
It appeared as though Peralta might suffer the same fate as Yovani Gallardo and Marco Estrada before him after needing 19 pitches to get through the opening inning. Colorado leadoff hitter Eric Young Jr. worked Peralta harder than anyone, seeing 10 pitches before walking to open the game.
Maldonado caught Young trying to steal second and Peralta took care of things from there, striking out Dexter Fowler and then making a terrific play to field Carlos Gonzalez's swinging bunt and throw him out by half a step at first base.
Peralta's first big mistake came in the second inning. After issuing a four-pitch leadoff walk to cleanup hitter Troy Tulowitzki, he threw a 96-mph fastball to Wilin Rosario on a 3-2 count that the catcher deposited in the left-field bleachers to give the Rockies a 2-0 lead.
Peralta faced the minimum in the third and fourth innings, relying almost exclusively on his fastball as he did most of the evening, and took a 2-2 tie into the fifth inning before running into trouble again.
This time it came from the bottom of Colorado's order, as Jordan Pacheco and No. 8 hitter Reid Brignac each doubled to give the Rockies a 3-2 lead. Then Young singled in Brignac to make it 4-2.
Peralta did succeed in keeping a lid on Colorado's big boppers, Gonzalez and Tulowitzki.
The two combined to go 1 for 4 with two walks and no runs batted in against Peralta after teaming up to go 7 for 19 with four home runs (two apiece), seven RBI and six runs scored in the teams' first two games.
Gonzalez nearly made it three homers in as many games on what wound up being Peralta's final pitch of the night when he lifted a fly ball to deep center field. But Carlos Gomez helped out his fellow Dominican by making a leaping grab at the wall.
Peralta then walked Tulowitzki again before being replaced by Alfredo Figaro. He finished with four strikeouts and a pitch count of 90.
"At times, his sinker was great," Roenicke said. "It was 95, 96, down in the zone. But consistently, he couldn't repeat pitches. His slider was basically not there most of the game. He threw a couple good ones, but when he got behind in the count, he couldn't get back in it with a breaking ball.
"They sat fastball, and when he was up in the zone, they hit it well."

Ron: A primer on what this election is about: For every negative that can be listed about one of the two candidates an equal number exists for the other. For every initiative raised by one candidate that can't get through a divided Congress another exists for the other candidate. When it comes to foreign policy it's a #$%$ shoot as to which candidate would perform better although I would be more comfortable with one over the other I would concede that it's a draw. The ONLY issue and the most important issue that will be decided by the next President is what direction the Supreme Court will take for the next 30 years. Clinton, Left and Trump, Right. Everything else is literally meaningless.

I bought this laptop brand new in February this year, and only in the last week or so has it started showing this brokenness. The degradation was somewhat gradual, since I was able to run the laptop only on battery power, and it would shut down at some point, even though battery indicator was far from empty. But now it's not even turning on at all on battery power, and it shuts down immediately when I remove mains.
acpi, I sometimes get:
Battery 0: Charging, 99%, charging at zero rate - will never fully charge.
And sometimes:
Battery 0: Charging, 99%, 00:19:41 until charged
Could this output be wrong, claiming 99% when the battery is nowhere near that?

I don't have a Continuum, so this is untested, but it hopefully works It will give you the option to restart your phone, reboot into recovery, or reboot to download mode. This requires a deodexed system and CWM recovery, and the ROM from Adrynalyne would probably be a good start since that's where I pulled the files from.

Consultant recommends changes for CL&P's customer service
Improving customer service at Connecticut Light & Power Co. will require "a fundamental shift in how the organization is led and managed," according to a consulting firm hired by the utility.
The consultant, The Chip Bell Group of Gun Barrel City, Texas, was hired by CL&P in the wake of hundreds of complaints from customers last year. The complaints led to a six-month investigation by state regulators into how CL&P handled complaints about its electric meters that concluded in January.

Hand tendon pain
Got a used Validol which flies like a dream. Only 4 or 5 sessions total. It has really opened up a new level to my flying.
Occasionally I feel some tendon stretching pain in my throwing hand. Definitely a stretching sensation from wrist through first 3 fingers. This afternoon I had some pretty intense pain during first throw. And still have some have it.
I'm in my mid forties and dealing with the usual mid forties issues, but decent fitness overall.
I didn't do any type of warm-up today, and I'll change that. And I guess I'll start with easy tosses first.
Any other advice?

Relax the hand, let it be stretched out. Hold the plane in a relaxed manner.
https://jordansequillion.files.wordp...07/fingers.jpg - Ignore this is for olympic archery, but take a look at how the top two fingers and the thumb are utilized. The thumb basically isn't utilized. One can end up adding a great deal of useless tension to the hand doing things with the thumb. Notice where the string is on the fingers? Put the throwing blade there. See how the hand is fairly stretched out, flat across the back, but relaxed? That's what you want. Also notice how the pinky is relaxed as well. People tend to tighten up the pinky when they don't know what to do with it. Do nothing with it but keep it relaxed.
You can practice this with a paint can. Hold the handle like shown in the picture but just using the top two fingers instead of three. Get the hand relaxed and straight. Then relax it just a tiny bit more to let the can drop.
I spent 20 years training at a fairly high level for this type of shooting, about a half million shots. Plus a bit of coaching. Done right, one doesn't even need to get calluses. The hand can stay pretty relaxed holding 50# which is fully sufficient for a full power 70m+ DLG throw.
By the way, also keep the throwing arm biceps relaxed. It serves no purpose on a DLG throw. Tension there will cost you altitude. Bending the arm will cost you more altitude.
Take a break until the pain is all gone, plus a few days. Next time you go out to throw, only do light throws and work on technique. Flying low is good practice anyway.
I don't get to see what you are doing; I'm not your coach, and I'm not your doctor. I can't tell you that there is not something else going on.
You definitely need to warm up before you throw hard.

Two things to consider:
1) learn to throw left handed. You may be super right handed but if your wrist is bothering you the glider may be bringing it out but there may be more at play there.
2) Consider a wrist brace when you are throwing. I have never tried this because I have never had this problem. But this might help.
When I have had problems with my wrist it is because I am trying to twist the glider on the launch. If you throw it out at about a 10 to 20 degree angle and use a launch mix on the elevator you should not be stressing the writs all that much. But if you are in the early stages of carpal tunnel syndrome you might want to switch hands or try the brace.
Thanks. The brace is a good idea. I've got an old brace stored away and I'll use it for at least the first few throws next time.
Meanwhile it's a lot better and we have a few more days of marginal weather.

I used to fly competition, but not anymore. My knee and ankle can't take it when I try to do rapid fire contest launches. But I still fly them for sport from time to time.
My first few launches are very easy. Not looking for height just getting it into the air and reading the trim.
Something like this. But note he is throwing up. You don't want to do that. Throw out, aim for the top of the trees 100 yards away.
Next few launches are a bit stronger as I get my timing down so that I am not forcing anything.
Then I go into whatever level of launch I will use for the rest of the day. When I am going for my maximum height I actually take a short run, turn, leave the ground then plant and spin. I am not record holder but I think I have hit 150 feet which isn't bad.
When I am sport flying I try not to throw that hard.
This is a video of a DLG contest. Try to see that they are NOT throwing up from the wrist. The glider leaves the arm in a smooth arc. Now, they will put more angle on their release than you want to because, if you get the circle too angled you might hit the wing tip on a 1.5 meter DLG. On the smaller DLGs or side launched gliders you can get away with it. It is an elevator preset on the radio that takes the plane up.

And excellent yet filling salad. Only distraction could be that the garlic maybe too strong, which cuts down on the romance. Overall, excellent
Loved this salad and the dressing hit the mark. Made for Tastebud Tickling Travellers for ZWT4.
Delicious and authentic. Just want to point out that's not an 'X' at the beginning of the word for this recipe, but the Greek letter 'hee', which has an 'h' sound. This salad is actually pronounced 'ho-ree-A-tee-kee' (read quickly).
Ate this for a treat last night, because we have been so busy otherwise. Turned out wonderfully, and so fresh. The dressing was tasty and I used the lemon juice. rather then the vinegar. Used fresh oregano instead of dried. Thank you, Jen! made for *ZWT4* June 2008.
This is a terrific, light and delicious salad. Easy to make and looks impressive. Thanks for a great side dish Jen! Made for ZWT 4 :)
quick and easy with classic greek flavors. We halved the recipe and served as a side dish but it would be great as a main dish when it's hot! Thanks for sharing. Made for ZWT
I am always a big fan of Greek type salads and this one did not disappoint! Flavors were nicely balanced and was the perfect side to go with chicken souvlaki for a light dinner. Made for ZWT4 team Kumquat's Kookin' Kaboodles. Thanks for sharing- ~Sue
Easy, versatile, and tasty. Thank you Jen!
An excellent greek salad with a terrific dressing. I used iceberg for the lettuce; the next time I think I will choose something with more flavor...I love the crunch of iceberg, but... The combination of all the ingredients was right on target. Used red wine vinegar for the dressing. Yum. I'll use this dressing on salads all week. Thanks, Jen!
Wonderful Greek salad! For our tastes and to lower the fat, I only used a sprinkle of the feta, and added the olive oil in equal parts to the lemon juice. Adding a red pepper would make a great addition to this salad too. Thanks, Jen!

Join us as we walk here in the Quad Cities or in your own community to support life-saving, clean water for those who live in Niger, Africa. In this rural, sub-Saharan desert there is little access to clean water, leading to illness and death. Because of this issue, one child dies every 20 seconds from the effects of contaminated water. The global water crisis has far reaching effects. Walk with us in solidarity with the people of Niger.
Our goal is for each team to walk the 6,000 miles between Moline, IL and Niger, Africa so that we too can walk for clean water. While this distance may seem long, by sharing the experience with our teams of 20, we can work towards a healthy future for ourselves and Niger.
Many people already walk nearly 10,000 steps or 5 miles every day.
If each team member of 20 walks 10,000 steps a day, the distance becomes much more manageable. Likewise, if each of us takes a step towards creating a sustainable change in Niger, a real difference can be made!
How can walking here create a difference in Niger?
If each person asked a friend, coworker, relative, or other supporter to sponsor their team's efforts for just a penny per mile, they could easily raise $60.
At 20 people per team, the sponsorships would reach $1200! If we can register 20 teams, we could raise $24,000!
These gifts would be used to build and maintain wells, purchase supplies, create educational opportunities, and train the villagers to maintain and build wells. In this case, even a penny makes a drastic impact.

The Girls
by Emma Cline
California. The summer of 1969.
In the dying days of a floundering counter-culture a young girl is unwittingly caught up in unthinkable violence, and a decision made at this moment, on the cusp of adulthood, will shape her life...
Evie Boyd is desperate to be noticed. In the summer of 1969, empty days stretch out under the California sun. The smell of honeysuckle thickens the air and the sidewalks radiate heat.
Until she sees them. The snatch of cold laughter. Hair, long and uncombed. Dirty dresses skimming the tops of thighs. Cheap rings like a second set of knuckles. The girls.
And at the centre, Russell. Russell and the ranch, down a long dirt track and deep in the hills. Incense and clumsily strummed chords. Rumours of sex, frenzied gatherings, teen runaways.
Was there a warning, a sign of things to come? Or is Evie already too enthralled by The Girls to see that her life is about to be changed forever?
'This book will break your heart and blow your mind.' - Lena Dunham
Reviewed by Ben at Angus & Robertson Bookworld:
In this book, first-time novelist Emma Cline transports you to this forever-reimagined Californian Summer of '69 horror in a wave of atmospheric tones rather than stereotypes and overstatements. Every page has delivers a haunting phrase or delicate twist of metaphor that will haunt you. This book isn't the thriller you expect; in fact, the murders are practically irrelevant to what this book is. The Girls is a triumph of style.
It's difficult to explain how the author achieves this, but she acutely captures this over-idealised, unsettling world with dozens of nuanced moments. The most resounding sequences of this story occur where nothing really bad happens at all. It's incredible in its own unique way. Highly recommended.

Early-Adopters Must Learn to Wait
Early-adopter shouldn't mean beta-tester. The Jawbone UP saga is a great example of this: pushed out too soon, eagerly picked up by keen geeks, and now the subject of a huge refunds program that's costly both financially for Jawbone and in terms of their all-important reputation. Yet do we bring some of this post-purchase misery upon ourselves - as consumers, enthusiasts, geeks - in prioritizing and praising so doggedly the very first to market? Manufacturers have learned we'll gobble up what we're given, rough edges and all.

Becoming a banker continues to be less and less of a one-way ticket to a beachfront mansion as Deutsche Bank (DB) becomes the first to widen clawbacks, introducing rules allowing it to strip employees of stock earned at previous employers. For now, expect Deutsche to have trouble filling positions, but it likely won't be long until other lenders copy the policy.

Released: Oct 01st, 1998
Running Time: 91
Director: Joe D'Amato
Company: Moonlight Entertainment
Cast: Silvio Evangelista, Boris Blanco, Nicolette (I), Hakan, Roberto Malone, Laura Lee, Christina (I), Marzia Visconte, Eros, Vally
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Feature
Women will salivate over the lean Euro-boys a lot more than over the ancient history lesson - read couples. Also stock in imports.
A standard-issue plot with Roman shenanigans, where a dubbed-in voice says things like, "Who in Hades do you think you are?" does not distract too much from a show with an ample supply of strong sex.
A Marl Wahlberg look-alike who plays the part of Nero fucks practically every girl in this movie. Hey, he's the Emperor. All the women are hot, especially one supercute redhead who gets worked over on three separate occasions. She (apologies for not being to identify her by name), with her bob hairdo and tight curvy body, looks particularly heroic with a big dick in her mouth, cunt, and ass.
Six scenes, numerous anals, d.p.s., and facial cum shots. An exaggerated, out-of-sync soundtrack of oohing and ahhing invites a certain amount of mockery, as does protracted shots of various "Romans" in thinking poses -- rubbing their beards. Box cover art (possibly the worst in the history of man) features a gladiator on horseback, which, believe it or not, doesn't appear within the confines of this feature presentation.

Enville Golf Club is a private members club and was founded in 1935 with a nine hole course. The facilities were gradually extended over a period of years until 1983, when two eighteen hole courses were completed. 2010 saw the addition of one of the finest most extensive practice facilities in the Midlands.
The Highgate and Lodge courses have nine holes of majestic woodland and nine holes of picturesque heathland. From 2007 to 2011 our Highgate course was used by the R & A for Regional Open Qualifying. In 2014 we were proud to host the EGU Boys Under 14's Reid Trophy and in 2017 we will be hosting the Girls British Open Amateur Championship.
The members are delighted to share the outstanding facilities with visitors. The tee settings provide a challenge to golfers of all standards. We are ranked in the Uk's top 200 courses.
All this backed up with a truly warm and friendly welcome in our Clubhouse offering fine food and local cask ales and beers including the award winning Enville Ale.

Managing mail traffic with an IMAP proxy
IMAP proxies like Perdition, Imapproxy, and Cyrus Aggregator help distribute mail to multiple IMAP servers. We examine some options for IMAP proxy in the Linux evironment.
More and more IMAP servers are groaning under the load of increasing mail traffic. This presents administrators with a problem: clustering an IMAP server is not a trivial
task. To make sure a shared database is available for user mailboxes, administrators often resort to expensive SANs for
shared storage or complex replication mechanisms.
The cost of commercial clustering systems such as Red Hat's cluster suite RHCS make some IT bosses nervous, and the prospect of migrating an old IMAP server to a new cluster system and the technical complexities involved bring many a system administrator to a nervous sweat.

We compare the employment of African American and white youth as they transition to adulthood from age 18 to 22, focusing on high school graduates and high school dropouts who did not attend college. Using OLS and hazard models, we analyze the relative employment rates, and employment consistency, stability, and timing, controlling for a number of factors including family income, academic aptitude, prior work experience, and neighborhood poverty. We find white high school graduates work significantly more than all other youth on most measures; African American high school graduates work as much and sometimes less than white high school dropouts; African American dropouts work significantly less than all other youth. Findings further suggest that the improved labor market participation associated with a high school diploma is higher over time for African Americans than for white youth.

37 year old woman | Misquamicut, RI, United States | Seeking men 32-40 within 50 miles of Pawcatuck, CT
Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it." ~Charles Swindoll
Like you I am looking for my match. I've been on and off this online thing for a while now and am hoping it will end at some point. I remain hopeful. About me: I am career oriented, stable, independent, flexible and loyal. I'm also outgoing, spontaneous, and like to enjoy life to the fullest. I'm a simple girl, who appreciates and enjoys what life has to offer. I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty and I hate drama and laziness. I have a full time career and love what I do. I love photography, home decorating, and being around animals and nature. I tend to fall asleep within the first 15 -20 minutes of a movie and am terrible at remembering movie titles or who is in them. I am not good at remembering movie quotes either. I enjoy meeting new people, volunteering at local homeless shelter soup kitchen, going on spontaneous day trips or adventures, long hikes, the beach and making lasting and meaningful memories whether alone or with others. I tend to hibernate in the winter as I don't handle the cold very well, but am the complete opposite in the summer. I love to be outdoors whether it's going for a hike or just enjoying a sunset. I'm looking for a partner to share adventures and memories with. I find cooking to be therapeutic and prefer a home cooked meal over a restaurant meal any day of the week. I can't wait to have my dream kitchen. To me there is something incredibly sexy about a man who can cook or will at least try. I am not a fan of breakfast, but coffee in the am is an absolute MUST! What I'm looking for: I would like to find someone who is free spirited, spontaneous, positive, non judgmental, motivated, kind, respectful, drama free and has goals. Someone who enjoys simplicity, appreciates the small things, and knows the difference between what is and isn't important in life. I'm not materialist or flashy and prefer to be with someone who is the same way.

First of all, I'm not sure that this extension is in any way the cause of the problem I'm experiencing, but it is most likely the place where most people will look for an answer.
It seems like the theme I'm using is clashing with that of reCAPTCHA. You can compare the correct version with that of the incorrect version.
This snippet of CSS added to the theme's style.css fixes it:
#recaptcha_area * {

I'm using:

- Contact Form 7
- Contact Form 7 reCAPTCHA extension 0.0.12

But, the WP-reCAPTCHA plugin displays the same symptoms.

Former Otago gold explorer Glass Earth Gold is revamping the
company, with sweeping management changes, a share
consolidation and a new name.
As New Zealand's largest gold explorer, Glass Earth's initial
emphasis was seven years of exploration around Otago where it
spent the bulk of $40 million, before resetting its sights to
gold prospects in the Central North Island, about two years
ago, and quitting Otago.
Glass Earth Gold, which is listed on the Toronto and New
Zealand stock exchanges, will soon be rebranded as Antipodes
Gold Ltd.
Glass Earth shareholders had approved a consolidation of
share capital late last year, to swap 10 old shares for one
new; leaving the company with 10.56 million ordinary shares
on issue.
New chief executive Thomas Rabone said Glass Earth would
focus exploration in the Hauraki region, its priority being a
joint venture with Newmont at the WKP prospect, which Glass
Earth would manage.
Glass Earth has dropped the adjacent Neavesville prospect.
Leaving Glass Earth's board is John Dow, Paul Jones and Peter
Liddle, with chief executive Simon Henderson becoming
exploration manager, Adrian Fleming appointed chairman and
Justin Cochrane appointed a director.

Pink Banana Theatre wrestles with truth, Internet in 'Dark Play'
When we first meet Nick in Carlos Murillo's "Dark Play," now on stage at Pink Banana Theatre Company in a production that opened over the weekend, he's a blandly attractive, seemingly wholesome collegian — "pretty much indistinguishable," as he'll later tell us, "from any other college kid."
But there's more here than initially meets the eye, as we learn when the woman sharing Nick's dorm-room bed begins asking about the web of scars along his waistline. Does Nick tell Molly the truth about these now-healed wounds? Or should he do as he's always done and make "stuff" — Nick uses a different word — up? »Read Full Article(1)

(Tried & True Award)- Golden raisin-like color. Sumptuous aroma of baked fruits (pears, nectarines, quince), wine grapes, malt, fruit salad, honeysuckle -- amazing bouquet. Flavors include white raisins, honey, apple butter, wine, biscuits. Finishes long, succulent, divinely ambrosial.
This golden spirit is often flagged by bartenders and sommeliers as a favorite; it's easy to see why. A decade in Bourbon casks, plus an extra two years in Sauternes barriques yields a fresh honeysuckle and vanilla perfume and a super-smooth spirit with creamy honey and nut flavors, with hints of dark chocolate and cinnamon. Very few spirits have such elegance and silky finesse. Good value, too. - K.N.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: Lime and orange rind, sultanas and dates give a rich fruity flavour laced with tantalising spices of coconut and nutmeg.Taste: Ginger, nutmeg and toasted almonds bring a deep, warming taste interwoven with a syrupy lemon meringue and honeycomb middle.Finish: Long and lusciously sweet finish with lemon zest, white chocolate, vanilla and traces of ginger and nutmeg.
Technical Notes
In 1999 Dr Bill Lumsden, Glenmorangie's head of whisky creation, acquired the keys to a limited quantity of Sauternes barriques from the fabled vineyards of Chateau d'Yquem. This gave him an idea; what would happen if the exquisite 18-year-old vintage he had been patiently maturing were to be transferred into these famous barriques? The result of these 10 years of extra maturation is just 1,000 bottles of the oldest and very finest Glenmorangie vintage whisky.
To complement the collaboration between Glenmorangie and Chateau d'Yquem, a partnership between the traditions of whisky creation and viniculture, two renowned designers have been commissioned to encapsulate this story in an object of rare beauty. They are Laurence Brabant and Wouter Scheublin, and they have come together to create a wooden coffret that glides open to reveal a sensual crystal vessel

Zero Energy Building Concept
View Larger
Cost decreases and technological advances could rouse the market for net-zero energy buildings from dormancy within the next two decades, according to a recent report by Pike Research.
Net-zero energy buildings produce as much energy on-site as they consume in a year. Many technologies needed to reach this goal, such as high-efficiency HVAC systems, are already available affordably. However, products like triple-glazed windows and solar panel installations are frequently not cost-effective for building owners compared to conventional alternatives, researchers noted. Thus, only a handful of zero energy buildings have been constructed despite growing interest in the concept.
Electrochromic glass technology, for example, is relatively new today but will continue to improve in durability and performance while dropping in cost, making it a stronger alternative to conventional glazing systems, researchers predict.
Stringent government regulations similar to the European Union directive mandating near zero energy construction in all new projects by 2021 will drive down costs and encourage energy-efficient innovations in the U.S. As this effort ramps up, worldwide zero energy building revenue could reach an estimated $690 billion by 2020 and $1.3 trillion by 2035, according to the forecast.
"While several dozen buildings of this type have been constructed in the United States, the market as a whole remains essentially dormant," says senior analyst Eric Bloom. "That is changing as advances in building technology provide breakthrough solutions to energy efficiency and renewable energy challenges while driving down costs for existing technologies."
The report, Zero Energy Buildings, details the size and growth of zero energy building markets, including building systems, renewable energy, and construction soft costs, as well as drivers and trends for zero energy buildings in key markets.
