text: Express Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player. My final earnings short-squeeze play today is retail apparel player Express ( EXPR), which is set to release numbers on Wednesday before the market open. This company is a specialty apparel and accessory retailer offering both women's and men's merchandise. Wall Street analysts, on average, expect Express to report revenue of $467.43 on earnings of 17 cents per share. If you're looking for a beaten-down heavily-shorted stock ahead of its earnings report this week, then make sure to check out shares of Express. This stock has been hammered by the sellers during the last six months, with shares off by over 25%. This stock is currently trading just two points off its 52-week low of $15.34 a share as we approach its earnings report. The current short interest as a percentage of the float for Express is notable at 8.9%. That means that out of the 84.44 million shares in the tradable float, 7.6 million are sold short by the bears. This is a decent short interest on a stock with a relatively low float. Any bullish earnings news from EXPR could easily send this stock soaring post-earnings. From a technical perspective, EXPR is currently trading below both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages, which is bearish. This stock topped out at around $18.90 a share in July and subsequently dropped to its recent low of $15.34 a share. During that sharp move lower, shares of EXPR were consistently making lower highs and lower lows, which is bearish technical price action. That said, the stock has found buying interest at around $15.34 to $15.49 a share, and it's now ripped higher towards its current price of $17 a share. If you're bullish on EXPR, then I would wait until after they report earnings and look for long-biased trades if it can manage to trigger a breakout trade above its 50-day moving average of $17.27 a share with high volume. If we get that action, then look for EXPR to re-test and possibly take out its next significant overhead resistance levels at $18.97 to $19.42 a share post-earnings. Any move above $19.42 will give EXPR a chance to re-fill some of a previous gap down that started at $23 a share. I would simply avoid EXPR after earnings if it fails to trigger that breakout, and then moves back below some major near-term support at $15.34 a share with heavy volume. If we get that move, then look for EXPR to re-test and possibly take out its next significant support levels at $14 to $13.06 a share post-earnings. Keep in mind that any move below $15.34 will mean EXPR is trading at a new 52-week low, which is bearish technical price action.

Good Morning,
I am currently building a website that will be a blog about music and am implementing custom fields and custom post types in several different manners. On my archive-event.php page I specifically want to modify the main loop for that page so that instead of ordering by the date the post (each event is a post of type "event") was published I want them sorted in the archive by the date of a custom field called "start_date".
Currently each start_date field is in the form "yyyy-m->set-dd" and I want to omit posts with a start_date before the current date (so previous events would not show up). Additionally I would like to order the archive of the posts by start_date so that the first post would be the soonest upcoming event.
I was reading a little bit about the pre_get_posts function but was not able to implement it correctly. The two main areas of code for attempting to modify the query are in functions.php and archive-event.php:
//specifically alter the main query *after* it has been called
function alter_events_query($query){
if( $query->is_main_query() ){
$query->set( array('meta_key' => 'start_date', 'meta_value' => date('o-m-d'), 'meta_compare' => '>=' ));
alter_events_query( );
It should be noted that the "alter_events_query();" line is called immediately after the "get_header" call at the beginning of archive-event.php.
My website is: RaveIsKing.Danconia.US and the page, including error message, is the following (debugging is currently on):
Any help that could point me in the right direction would be appreciated. I don't know if I am sending the right parameters to the wp_query->set method and it seems that documentation on that method and the "pre_get_posts" isn't very well documented either. Thank you!

The solar water pumping project in Paang Bundok was installed in 2005 providing water supply to 85 families in Paang Bundok. Unfortunately, during the three-year operation of the potable water system, some of its main technical parts (electrical inverter) were accidentally hit twice by lightning that affected the over-all performance. Most of the solar panels were badly damaged and some inverters were missing. Although some parts replacement was done with the help of a partner institution, the maximum capacity of the water system to supply the requirement of the whole community was greatly affected. After this episode, the decision to move the solar panels system closer to the community was taken and also install transition line from the source to the new system location, around 500 meters far, buy a new inverter and repair the solar panels in order to rehabilitate the system.
At present, the whole potable water system is at zero performance level due to the missing inverters and damaged solar panels. From September 2008 up to this time, the residents are doing the old ways of fetching water for their daily needs.
Thanks to you and Global Giving that facilitated online fundraising, SIBAT engineers are now working on the rehabilitation of the solar water pumping system.
Project Update:
Presently, the solar panels have already been repaired and placed in the new location closer to the community. The inverter has been delivered to the community and already in place. The transmission line from the water source to the location of the new solar panels have been installed. The project team is composed of Carlo Fabia (electrical engineer), Diana Benato (mechanical engineer), Jade Angngalao (agricultural engineer and Myrna Herisano (community facilitator).
During the site visit to rehabilitate the the system, SIBAT Team has discovered that the pump is not functional any more probably due to the fact that it has been left inoperative for a long period. The team has decided to bring the pump to the SIBAT workshop in Urdaneta, Pangasinan so as to clean and make it work again before take the decision to buy a new pump. Installation of the pump is targeted to be completed within the month of December 2011.
The project engineers, Carlo Fabia and Diana Benato, will then test the repaired pump and plan out next activities for making the water pumping system fully operational. As such, after testing, if the pump is working, the next activities will be for the assessing/testing and conduct of necessary repairs of the water distribution line from the water supply to the households. If in the case that the repaired pump will not work, then SIBAT will then have to procure a new pump for the system.
8-9 October 2011: Installation of the inverter. The team went to Paang Bundok to clean-up and do maintenance work of the solar system, install the new inverter and the transmission line from the water source to the solar panels located 500m from Paliparan Spring which is the water source. Unfortunately, the engineers were unable to test the pump as it was rainy weather and there was not enough power to run the pump.
26-27 October 2011: Test of the pump. The team returned to the site to test the pump on a sunny weekend, and discovered that the pump was not functional due to impurity inside the rotor as the pump has been left without working for a long period. As such, the engineers brought the pump for clean-up and repair work to SIBAT's workshop in Urdaneta.
11-17 November 2011: Pump Repair in Machine Shop in Urdaneta, Pangasinan. The pump was cleaned as it has already some parts with rust, pump oil was replaced and now ready for testing.
Next site visit on December 2011: Pump Testing. The next site visit will entail testing of the repaired pump, and once functional, the team will now proceed to testing and repair of the water distribution lines from the water source to the households. If the repaired pump is not working, then there will be a need to procure a new pump for the system.
Thank you for supporting the rehabilitation of the solar water pumping project in Paang Bundok. SIBAT engineers were able to repair the damaged solar panels and have now installed it in Paang Bundok. The technical work is now halfway through, made possible with your support that provided for the technical repairs and installation expenses of the project. As soon as possible, the water pump will also then be repaired that will then bring up the water directly from the spring to the storage tank for distribution to the 85 families in the village.
The next phase will be restoration of the water distribution system including the water pump equipment. SIBAT engineers – Carlo Fabia and Diana Benato have already designed the appropriate water system layout that will optimize the water distribution system.
Paang Bundok Solar Water Pump Project Rehabilitation
Last January 19-25, 2011 a technical team composed of SIBAT's Renewable Energy Technical Manager Chris Alfonso, Electrical Engineer Francis Lacuesta, Agricultural Engineer Jade Angngalao and Community Organizer Myrna Herisano conducted a project site visit to prepare for the technical rehabilitation of the Paang Bundok Solar Water Pumping System.
The visit included a technical survey and monitoring to finalize the design of the major technical components of the project. The findings and technical recommendations which were shared to the community were the following:
There is a need to install a bigger tank in the highest portion of the area for sufficient water distribution to all households;
The project team also took the opportunity to consult and discuss with the Paang Bundok villagers regarding the rehabilitation requirements, local manpower and responsibilities of the PO that will be required for the rehabilitation work and the available funds raised from UP-ERG and through Global Giving.
Initial Rehabilitation Activities during April – May, 2011.
The initial funds available (raised through Global Giving and UP-ERG) were then used to canvass and procure project materials – cement, pipes and electrical materials, and preparatory activities such as inventory of existing materials, checking and fixing all pipelines previously installed. SIBAT engineers have been working on finalizing an appropriate technical design and workplan together with the villagers towards ensuring proper fit and implementation whilst raising more funds necessary for project completion.
March 1, 2011
Solar power is the conversion of sunlight into electricity, either directly using photovoltaics (PV), or indirectly using concentrated solar power (CSP). Concentrated solar power systems use lenses or mirrors and tracking systems to focus a large area of sunlight into a small beam. Photovoltaics converts light into electric current using the photoelectric effect.
The solar panels convert sunlight into electrical power. Stronger sunlight will generate more power. The longer the sun shines on the panels the more energy will be generated. Clouds will reduce the power output of the panels. The solar panels work automatically and only need minimal maintenance.
Solar energy is not available at night, making energy storage an important issue in order to provide the continuous availability of energy. Solar power is an intermittent source, meaning that all available output must be taken when it is available and either stored for when it can be used, or transported, over transmission lines, to where it can be used.
Estimated Project Cost & Comparison for a Three Phase & Single Phase System:
The estimated cost comparison for the 3-phase is in the amount of PhP157,480 while for a single-phase system cost estimate is pegged at PhP261,610 which will cover costs for hardware and materials. Labor cost and some locally available materials will be provided as local counterpart of Paang Bundok villagers. The local government units are also being approached for additional financial and technical support. Final electrical system design will then be based on available funds and resources that will also consider system reliability, affordability, application and resiliency to climate change.
Estimated Duration and Work Plan:
The estimated duration for rehabilitating the Paang Bundok solar water pumping project will cover a period of one month, as soon as project funds are fully secured.
Solar frame & transmission post assembly: 1st- 2nd week
Electrical Wiring Installation: 3rd week
Testing and Commissioning of PV solar water pumping station: 4th week
Current Efforts in Fundraising for Paang Bundok's Proposed Solar Wind Hybrid for Household Water Distribution and Livestock Raising
Project Location: Sitio Paang Bundok, San Celestino, Lipa, Batangas, Philippines
Samahang Patubig ng Paang Bundok (SPPB) and Sibol ng Agham at Teknolohiya (SIBAT) has been mobilizing the Batangas local government unit (barangay, municipal, provincial and congressman) to provide financial, material and support services to the proposed rehabilitation and upgrading of the Paang Bundok's solar-wind water pumping project.
The following LGUs were approached and have given their initial commitment for project support in kind, material and financial support.
Project Brief:
The main project objective is to rehabilitate and upgrade the defunct solar water pumping system in Brgy. San Celestino of Lipa in Batangas, Philippines for 85 rural poor Filipino families (total population – 435) with clean drinking and household water needs (i.e., bathing, washing and cleaning). Previously installed in 2005 by SIBAT, it was destroyed by lightning in September 2008 rendering it non-functional up to now. SIBAT engineers will rehabilitate the solar water pumping project - replacement of solar panels, charge controllers, batteries, electrical inverters and rewiring of cables including necessary civil works. The villagers will provide labor counterpart.
The project will provide Paang Bundok with at least 17 m3 of water daily for their household consumption. It will ensure steady water supply direct to their houses, thereby ensuring accessibility, sanitary conditions, and minimize if not totally eliminate recurring water borne diseases in the community. The villagers will then have more time for other productive and learning activities, as the drudgery and the time spent in manual fetching of water will be done away with.
During the rainy season (May-December), the project can provide more water hence increasing the volume of water being supplied that can then supply nearby sitios.
Through the solar water pumping project, 435 poor Filipinos will be provided clean drinking water hence reducing chronic waterborne diseases, especially children. Backyard gardening and livestock raising will also be possible, hence will provide additional nutritional vegetables and open up income generating opportunities at the household level.
Currently, SIBAT project team is preparing for a more detailed feasibility study to improve the technical design and the power enterprise component of the project. Local produce such as coffee processing from dehulling, dehusking, shelling, drying, roasting up to product packaging may be integrated so as to provide value to their coffee production. Black pepper can also be looked into for integration and product development. The enterprise livelihood component will further enhance and strengthen the project's sustainability and economic viability, ultimately benefiting the villagers and organizational strengthening of the Samahang Patubig ng Paang Bundok (SPPB).

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough Calls On Republican Leaders To "Cut [Donald Trump] Loose"

CNN And MSNBC Carried Sarah McBride's Speech Live
Fox News did not air Sarah McBride's speech at the Democratic National Convention, where she made history becoming the first openly transgender person to speak at a major party's convention. Fox did however carry Peter Thiel's speech to the Republican National Convention live, where he made history announcing to the Republican convention that he is gay. CNN and MSNBC aired both McBride's and Thiel's speeches.

Cable news outlets effectively silenced the voices of pro-choice leaders by showing only a small part -- if any -- of their speeches at the Democratic National Convention. In doing so, networks fed the stigma around abortion, which is already prevalent in the media, and thereby contributed to anti-choice misinformation, which can manifest itself in dangerous laws closing abortion clinics and even violence.
Fox News ignored Planned Parenthood Action Fund president Cecile Richards' July 26 speech at the Democratic National Convention entirely, while CNN played a portion of it and MSNBC ran part of the speech in the corner of the screen with commercials over it, so viewers could not hear her words. Fox also ignored NARAL Pro-Choice America president Ilyse Hogue's July 27 speech at the convention, while CNN and MSNBC showed convention scenes while she was speaking during commercials and panel discussions, but included no audio of Hogue's speech and did not indicate that Hogue was speaking.
Media have pointed out that the speeches were both groundbreaking. Richards was the first speaker to mention the word "abortion" on the convention stage so far this year. Hogue "broke new ground," according to Yahoo News, by discussing her decision to have an abortion.
Networks' reluctance to air the speeches feeds into existing abortion stigma, which can be defined as "a shared understanding that abortion is morally wrong and/or socially unacceptable." One of the main manifestations of abortion stigma is "personal and cultural silence around abortion." Silencing those who publicly discuss abortion or share their own abortion stories is a way of feeding that stigma.
Media are no strangers to abortion stigma, which can take many forms in the news, including use of misleading b-roll footage of babies during news segments about abortion. Media figures also reinforce the idea that abortion is a risky and cruel procedure by parroting conservative talking points while discussing anti-choice regulations on abortion clinics. Hollywood is also guilty of feeding stigma about abortion, by not treating it like the "routine medical procedure" that it is.
Abortion stigma's prevalence in the media can be extremely dangerous because it leaves room for misinformation about the procedure, which is all too common. Lawmakers have adopted abortion myths and misinformation to promote anti-choice legislation and TRAP (targeted regulation of abortion providers) laws, and these mistaken concepts even made their way to the Supreme Court. Even more dangerously, some anti-choice extremists use misinformation surrounding abortion to justify violence against providers. A series of videos attacking Planned Parenthood by the anti-choice group the Center for Medical Progress precipitated a ninefold increase in anti-choice violence.
Abortion stigma is dangerous to women. By silencing the voices of pro-choice leaders, media are complicit.

As CNN and MSNBC aired a moving speech from Christine Leinonen, a mother whose son was killed at the Orlando, FL, massacre at an LGBT nightclub, during the Democratic National Convention, Fox News completely ignored the appearance, instead holding a panel discussion about inner city poverty and Donald Trump's appeal to disaffected voters.
On July 27, Christine Leinonen, mother of Christopher "Drew" Leinonen, a victim in the massacre at the Pulse nightclub, spoke onstage at the Democratic National Convention to advocate for common sense gun safety laws, endorse Hillary Clinton, and memorialize her son. Leinonen lamented the lack of "common sense" gun safety laws prohibiting the sale of assault weapons in her speech. Both CNN and MSNBC aired Leinonen's full remarks:
On Fox News, an outlet that has brought lies and fearmongering to the debate over gun safety and shamed victims of the Orlando massacre for not fighting back, the appearance went unmentioned:

After Donald Trump encouraged Russian intelligence services or hackers "to find" and release State Department emails that could prove damaging to Hillary Clinton, right-wing media covered for Trump, suggesting that Trump's comments were simply "tongue-in-cheek" or that he was "joking" about inciting a cyber attack by a foreign government on an American presidential candidate. National security experts condemned Trump's comments, saying Trump has asked "an adversary of the United States [to] perform espionage on the United States," calling it "a national security crisis."

As CNN and MSNBC aired the emotional Democratic National Convention tribute by mothers who lost children to gun violence or police shootings in its entirety, Fox News completely ignored the appearance "Mothers of the Movement." The mothers seek to rebuild police-community relationships and strive to end gun violence.
On July 26, the nine women who comprise the Mothers of the Movement gathered on stage at the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia to endorse Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton. The women said that Clinton was a leader "who will say our children's names" and one who "isn't afraid to say that black lives matter" while stressing the need for criminal justice reform and "common sense gun legislation" to stem the tide of violence in their communities. Both CNN and MSNBC aired the full, heartrending remarks before concluding with a brief analysis.
On Fox News, an outlet that has worked to demonize Black Lives Matter -- labeling it as "a hate group" and a "murder movement," and equating it with the Ku Klux Klan -- and diminished its calls for necessary criminal justice reforms, the appearance went unmentioned.
Rather than hearing the stories of the grieving mothers," Fox host Bill O'Reilly continued his show uninterrupted, interviewing guests on general election polling and border security:
Media figures have raised questions about Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump's connections, financial and otherwise, to Russia after he told The New York Times that he would honor NATO obligations to defend a member nation from a potential attack by Russia only if the member nation had "fulfilled their obligations to us." Media figures have called the remarks "downright frightening," possible evidence of a "non-tacit alliance" between Putin and Trump, and a possible cause for "an urgent investigation into whether Putin is interfering in the current American election."

Media figures pointed out the "interesting contrast" in presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton's introduction of her running mate Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA) as opposed to Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump's introduction of his VP pick Indiana Gov. Mike Pence. Journalists noted that Clinton was "more familiar" with Kaine's accomplishments and that Clinton "did the opposite" of Trump by talking about her running mate rather than herself.

Snow tussocks (Chionochloa spp.) in New Zealand exhibit extreme mast seeding which is synchronised within and among populations and species over large spatial scales. This masting behaviour satiates three endemic insect seed predators, and the weather cue that triggers heavy flowering has been reported as a very warm austral summer in the year before flowering. Here we elucidate the details of flowering, predator satiation, and temperature cues for Chionochloa. A 22-year observational data set for Chionochloa pallens from 1,070 m elevation on Mt Hutt, Canterbury, indicates that flowering was highly variable (CV = 1.79) which was effective in predator satiation, and the key cue for heavy flowering was warm temperatures between 1 January and 7 February the year before flowering. Both the number of inflorescences per tussock (the most variable component of reproductive output) and the number of florets per inflorescence were increased. Surprisingly, there were also same-season effects of temperatures between October and December on the number of inflorescences per tussock produced in late December through February. Experimental warming of tussocks using open-topped clear plastic enclosure tubes verified the same-season observations by significantly increasing flowering in the current season, but much less often increased flowering in the subsequent season. A comparison of masting patterns 1990–2008 with altitude in two tussock species, C. pallens and C. macra, indicates that at higher altitudes (ca. 1,580 m vs. 1,070 m) the temperature thresholds for a given flowering effort were lowered. The lowering of thresholds (2.1°C in C. pallens and 1.5°C in C. macra) was similar to the reduction in mean growing-season air temperatures (2.0°C) found between the sites. Thus, despite different local temperatures at high and low altitude sites, the different populations flowered with a similar intensity each year. The primary benefit of mast seeding in Chionochloa appears to be predator satiation, and the key predator (the cecidomyiid Eucalyptodiplosis chionochloae) has extended diapause. If diapause can be influenced by climate cues, the exact nature of the climate cues will be important to the evolutionary interaction between the plant and its seed predators.

Over the past few months I've been reducing my mREIT holdings and rotating into PMT and RWT. I like the dividend streams and opportunistic positioning for "recovery, or new normal, however you see things.
I have also been watching OZM and FIG. I believe all of these companies are opportunistic in an area of real estate "recovery" (the new reality).
IN more mainstream recovery, WFC and USB would round out my finance arm of real estate.
I believe all of these areas have yet to be fully overvalued by retail investors.
I am intrigued by PMT, but wary. The management knows where the bodies are buried. I have no trouble with PMT doing re-finances, re-packaging and SRO servicing. They're nimble and aggressive where traditional banks are slow and lumbering. No surprise there.
I have no trouble with them even doing some sub-prime lending. I believe I believe the pendulum has swung too far in the spectrum of risk and safety.
Though, PNMAC may be where too much money is going from a public investor perspective. These guys (PMT management, Blackrock and Highfields) are well capable of sleight of hand in pocketing fees. probably all legal, though maybe not entirely above-board.
I wish I had more visibility on this. These guys may be among those who need careful watching.
RWT, by contrast, seems straight on delving into loans, servicing and RMBS activity The big boys have pulled back and out...as a percent of market share...leaving a field for the taking
I find the stock a bit over-priced for a bargain, though. In my world, a six-percent dividend is bottom-rung.

WebMD health-e head2toe: skin care today
Men's Foot and Nail Care
Anti-Fungal Lotions, Powders, and Sprays continued...
Wash your feet frequently and dry them thoroughly, especially between the toes where the culprits typically take hold. Wear fresh socks daily.
Use an antifungal lotion or powder. Drugstores stock a wide variety of brands. Although different over-the-counter products use different active ingredients, a 2008 review in the British Journal of Dermatology says all are just about equally effective.
Look for a medicated powder or spray if you have sweaty feet, Vlahovic says. "For dry feet, go with an antifungal lotion."
Use the product every day for a month. If the itchy, burning rash persists, make an appointment to see a podiatrist or doctor. You may need a prescription strength antifungal preparation. The problem may not be athlete's foot but a bacterial infection requiring an antibiotic. Bacterial infections are one of the leading causes of chronically smelly feet.
Dealing With Toenail Fungus
The same fungus that causes athlete's foot can invade toenails, turning them yellow and crusty. Bad toenail infections can take a long time to eliminate.
If you come down with one, don't waste your money on over-the-counter remedies, Vlahovic says. None has been shown to work. Topical creams and oral antifungal pills are available by prescription.
Your best bet is still prevention. Keep toenails trimmed to avoid hangnails and ingrown toenails that can open the way for fungus invasion.

We are starting a community site for budding authors. Here the young writers send a pdf files of there writing and we get them printed at a lower prices than other publishers. And these books are only sold through our internal network of shops. So I think we will not require any kind of Barcodes on these books. Experience publishers please clarify.
It will vary from each specific edition and publisher and it makes sense only if the book will be sold in open market. If your books will be only sold privately and do not need to be identified outside your own scope, there's no need to have a ISBN code.
Including, Amazon publishing FAQ is quite specific on this:
Do I need an ISBN to publish on Kindle Direct Publishing?
If they don't require it, I think it's pretty safe to assume you don't need it either but have in mind that not having an ISBN may have it's drawbacks if you, later, decide to change the way you sell and distribute books.
An ISBN is the book industry's standard "ordering number" for a book. If you want to sell a book through bookstores or most online publishers, you pretty much have to get an ISBN.
If you are only publishing through your own local network, and no one in that network requires an ISBN, than I guess you don't need one.
By the way, they're not that difficult to get. When I published my first book the publisher took care of that, but for my second book I got my own ISBN. I bought a block of ten so I still have nine for future projects. I just checked current pricing: In the US, it's 1 for $125, 10 for $250, 100 for $575, or 1000 for $1000. In many countries they are free. Getting them is no hassle. Again, speaking of the US, you just go to the Bowkers website, create an account, and give them your credit card number. You then use their web site to enter the title and author for each ISBN.

Rivera Has Surgery, Targets 2013 Return
Rivera Has Surgery, Targets 2013 Return
After more than a month's delay, Mariano Rivera finally underwent surgery to repair the torn ACL in his right knee Tuesday. The surgery was successful, and Rivera is now targeting 2013 for a return. "My surgery was a success, it went perfectly," Rivera wrote on his Twitter account.
Rivera injured the knee chasing fly balls in early May, but a blood clot in his calf delayed the surgery for a month as doctors waited for it to pass. Doctors had expected to repair both the ACL and the meniscus in the knee, but opted against a meniscus repair once inside, which manager Joe Girardi said was good news.

Patriots Swoop In, Claim Jake Ballard
When the Giants placed Jake Ballard on waivers Monday following a failed physical, they gambled no one would claim the injured tight end. They were wrong. The New England Patriots snatched Ballard off waivers Tuesday. The news was announced by Ballard's agent on Twitter while the tight end was attending Giants mini camp. New York was likely to place Ballard on injured reserve as he could miss the entire 2012 season after tearing his ACL in the Super Bowl. The Giants are now left with Travis Beckum, also injured, Martellus Bennett and Bear Pascoe among their options at tight end.
—Tony Olivero
Mets Get an Injection of 1-800-Flower Power
The Mets said Tuesday that 1-800-Flowers founder Jim McCann was among the investors who bought a minority stake in the ball club earlier this year. The team sold 12 stakes for $240 million in March to help pay off its debts and cover operating expenses. Each stake sold for $20 million and represented a 4% interest in the team. Individual investors were not initially identified, but names have been trickling out.
—Brian Costa
Corrections & Amplifications
Martellus Bennett is among the Giants' principal options at tight end. An earlier version of this article incorrectly implied that the team's only principal options are Bear Pascoe and Travis Beckum.

To minimize the damage to an over heated pan (be it with or without food), do I let it cool off? Run it under cool water? Or is there different approach I'm supposed to take?
Letting it cool slowly will minimize the chance of warping for thin or cheap cookware.
Quality cookware should stand up to being deglazed or quickly cooled under running water.
How you cool it is up to you.
Note: the above is based on metal pots and pans. Glass, ceramic, or earthenware pans should always be cooled slowly to prevent heat-stress breaking or crazing.

By Harry Lipsiea So close. That's been a phrase heard often in the dugout of the Devils Lake softball team this season. Tuesday was no different as the Firebirds again played very well against an EDC Foe. On the road against Fargo Shanley for a pair of conference contests, the away team put themselves in a good position during both games.
Devils Lake, however, fell just short to the Deacons on both occasions. In the first game, the home team pulled out an air-tight 4-3 victory. Shanley continued its winning ways in the nightcap with an 8-6 nail-biter. With the loss, the Firebirds fall to 2-11 overall and 2-7 in the conference.
That record, however, is deceiving as the team has been within striking distance in nearly every encounter it has played in. The first game of the day was particularly disappointing as the Firebirds held a three-run lead late in the matchup.
With the game knotted at 0-0, Devils Lake struck first blood in the visitor's half of the sixth. Outfielder Hannah Pesek got it all started with a single to right center. Pesek and teammate Miriah Yoder, who was hit by the pitch, scored as Maddie Eriksson drove a double past the centerfielder to give her team a 2-0 advantage. Krista Waldo picked up an RBI with a sacrifice bunt bringing in Eriksson to make the score 3-0 in favor of the visiting Firebirds.
The Deacons responded with three runs of their own on a run-scoring single and triple to tie the game up at three. After Devils Lake was unable to plate any runs in the seventh, Shanley scored the winning run in the bottom of the frame off a defensive error. The home team earned the 4-3 victory.
The Firebirds outhit Shanley 9-6 in the loss. Pesek led the squad with three hits. Erickson added two hits and two RBIs. Yoder, Alyssa Hornstein, Jenna Windjue and Waldo each had basehits in the game. In the nightcap, the Deacons took control early with three runs in the first and one in the second to take a 4-0 lead after a pair of innings.
It didn't take long for Devils Lake to respond, however, as hits by Waldon, Hornstein and Mariah Fixen helped the team score three in the fourth and two in the fifth to take a 5-4 lead. Shanley answered back with two runs in the fifth to gain a 6-5 advantage after five innings. Devils Lake tied the game back up at six with a run in the top of the sixth.
The Deacons kept pushing offensively scoring two more runs in the bottom of the inning. Down 8-6, Devils Lake was unable to get anything in the seventh. Shanley earned the two-run victory. Yoder, Fixen, Eriksson, Hornstein, Waldo, Jessee Rude and Kristen Almen each had a hit for the Firebirds.
Page 2 of 2 - Rude, Waldo and Almen each drove in runs for the squad. Devils Lake is now preparing for a home game against Red River at 1 p.m. on Saturday.

New Basketball Wives LA?

The Doctor What
It is said that you define a person by what they know. If you follow that through to its logical conclusion; a person is the sum of their experiences. Therefore, if you want to know who I am, I could just give you access to everything I have seen and done and everyone I have met. Unfortunately, it's not possible to put everything I have ever experienced on the net. At least not yet.

Virginia Travel Guide: 7,885 reviews and 19,222 photos
Virginia was my first state visited in the East and it was a blast! Virginia means history, heritage, great people, food, architecture, nature and wildlife as well as southern culture and hospitality. I can risk opinion that you didn't see the USA if you didn't visit the Old Dominion state. Enough said. Welcome to my tips.
Now, Virginia is one of a few places on our planet I want to come back and revisit although I usually don't travel twice to the same area. That's why I put travelogue "Next time" with suggestions for my next Virginia visit. If you have any e-mail me, please. Thank you :-)
- Pros:People, history, architecture, food, nature, wildlife and southern culture!
- Cons:None! Well, time and $$$ needed :-)
- In a nutshell:It's a blast! Get packed and go!!!

Thanks for your comprehensive page about Virginia....I was honored and privileged to pay a visit to Fairfax Station during my stay in the US in the fall of '99.....
These are not called sheafs or sheaves of hay in the south, but simply "round bales". they're just hay.
Wow, the work you did on these pages is amazing. We leave for Virginia next week, I'm sure we'll find your information useful. Thanks so much for the time and commentary you put into this. By the way, your "use of the English Language" is exemplary.
Very well written tips, like all your other American tips! So many nice historical places there are to visit in Virginia. Interesting to hear of the vinary (I thought all American vines were from the west coast).
I had forgotten how good your tips on Virginia are!
That's great!!! Too bad I didn't get one of those plates, instead I have the Blue Ridge mtns one. It would have made a great souvenir:))
Virginia in autumn looks fantastic and you definitely succeeded in capturing the beauty of all those places you have visited, Matt. A great guide, stunning pictures and detailed and accurate explanations. I'm sure I'll love Virginia as much as you did.
I especially enjoyed your insightful observations of Southern history and culture. You are an astute observer, and despite Zrim's naive comment, you have a much better understanding of the War Betwen the States than he does.
Great overview of Viginia, I would like to visit this state one day! Didn't remember that UVA is a UNESCO site... greetings from Sofia
Hi thx 4 visiting my Telouet page! I visited Virginia oct-nov 2003 loads of history and scenery, loved it - including the Natural Bridge!nice to see your pics - mine arent on digital so r still in 35mm packets!

The walls of the student services office at the School of Education at Metropolitan State University are now the permanent home to 15 pieces of artwork by students at Normandy Elementary.
A South Jeffco man who was convicted of attacking his girlfriend last July has a hearing this week to consider whether his prior felony convictions could be considered during the habitual criminal phase of his sentencing.
Chuck Martinez was arrested in July 2015 after his girlfriend was found covered in blood at her apartment complex in the 3500 block of South Nelson Circle. She was transported to the hospital with serious injuries, including a skull fracture and brain bleed.
Anne Bitsie has hundreds of children.
While only three of them are her own, the rest are 10 years' worth of former kindergarten students, the oldest of whom are now in high school.
"My students will always be a part of my heart," Bitsie said. "Oftentimes, I see them out at the store, or around town, and they'll stop and say hello. Even if it's been years (since they were in kindergarten), it's so touching to see that they remember me and to hear that I made a positive impact on their lives."
Jeffco Public Schools may be drafting a policy on medical marijuana after Gov. John Hickenlooper signed legislation that requires the state's districts to allow use of the remedy on school grounds.
"Jack's Law" law requires school districts to "adopt a policy permitting the use of medical marijuana by students authorized" to use it. The legislation was named for Jack Splitt, a Wheat Ridge middle school student with cerebral palsy whose medical marijuana was confiscated last year by school officials.
Jeffco students are largely outperforming national averages when it comes to reading and math, but semester-to-semester growth is lacking.
According to the Jeffco school district's presentation of its year-long Measures of Academic Progress, student scores in math and reading improved over the last year, with about 60 percent of all students in grades three through 10 scoring in the high-average or above-average range for math and reading.
A Harris's hawk flew above a packed house from one handler to another Sunday at the second annual Father's Day Falcon Fest at the Audubon Nature Center at Chatfield State Park. Dads, moms and their kids watched in awe as five birds of prey were presented by the founder of HawkQuest, Kin Quitugua.
