WHEN Wales play Italy today the game has as much significance in this World Cup as England's match against South Africa one week ago. This is not because the levels of skill will be as high but because the game has generated considerable interest among the other teams in the competition, as well as among the Wales and Italy supporters, to see which country will win a place in the quarter-finals of this competition; Italy for the first time, Wales for the third.
Were Italy to achieve this, it would cap an extraordinary World Cup campaign in which they have

Women on Board and Firm Performance
Mijntje Lückerath-Rovers
Tilburg University / TIAS
April 9, 2010
Journal of Management & Governance, Volume 17, Issue 2 , pp. 491-509
This study addresses the research question of whether companies with female directors on the board have a higher average performance than companies with no female directors. The debate about the low representation of women in the top management of companies involves both moral arguments (equality between men and women) and economic arguments (companies with more women perform better). This study investigates the financial performance of 99 Dutch listed companies with and without women on the board. The analysis extends earlier used methods of Catalyst and McKinsey, two studies that are often cited in the literature (although both have a number of methodological shortcomings). This article adds to the international debate and applies useful methods to 99 listed companies in the Dutch Female Board Index. The results contribute to this often normative debate. They show that firms with women perform better than those without women. The differences are statistically significant for return on equity. Regression analyses confirm these findings.

6 sexy makeup tips
1. Get a bronzed glow
To appear sun kissed, Lee suggests choosing a blush in a neutral colour, which will contour your cheekbones and help warm up your complexion. Add some extra radiance by using highlighter on the top half of your cheekbones.
2. Create a velvety pout
Instead of aiming for a high-gloss effect, try to render a matte, yet supple lip. Lee recommends using a product that is both a lipstick and a lip balm as the dual action will create an alluring texture.
3. Craft the perfect cat's-eye
Call attention to your most expressive feature – your eyes. To attain a precise cat's-eye it is best to use small strokes of eyeliner and then connect them together, explains Lee. Getting to know your eye shape is important as well. Lee proposes practising the flick at the outer corner of the eyes and keeping a cotton swab dipped in eye makeup remover at hand just in case.
4. Liven up your lashes
Create a dramatic look by experimenting with false eyelashes. If you're a beginner, Lee advises using half lashes, as they are the easiest to apply. For a foolproof application she recommends applying mascara to your natural eyelashes before securing the false lashes.
5. Boast a healthy flush
To mimic an invigorated appearance Lee relies on the power of cream blush. Where a powder blush can look cakey, a creamier product will leave you with perfectly rosy cheeks.
6. Try the new smoky eye
Rather than applying overtly sexy smoky eye makeup, try creating a sense of sensual depth. To modernize this classic look "try taupes, browns and softer greys," says Lee. Playing with makeup is a great – and often inexpensive – way to experiment with a sexier style. It can be fun to shake up your look once in a while, so why not take a risk? You might just like the results.

Works with no side effects but runs out quickly
Posted by 5006161284384601781 on Jul 02, 2014
I've used this product and the Hyland's 4 Kids Allergy Relief on and off for about a year for allergic rhinitis. That's the equivalent of hay fever all year round but without a specific trigger. I find them both to be very effective against all my symptoms if taken regularly (every 15 mins at the beginning then about every hour or so) with no side effects. The downside is that there is no real lasting effect when symptoms are bad and therefore not a cost effective way to deal with a chronic ongoing problem. Probably best used to supplement something else or just when you really need of some relief from allergies of the nose.

If taken within a few hours of noticing a runny nose these tablets will indeed ward off a cold. I have found that the sniffles may try to return 3 or 4 times, but if you instantly give these tablets again the virus will eventuly die off without developing into a cold. Just great
Really Works!

I bought this for my son, but now I take it at the first sign of sneezes and sniffles. On more than one occasion this stuff has worked!

Really not sure if it is effective. Tried it, but can't tell the difference except slightly.

Hey Heroes and Villains,
We were recently requested to make our store EULA compliant as requested by Mojang, in order to prevent the server from being blacklisted.
In response to this, we had to make all items on our store effect every player that is online on the server it was purchased on, sell cosmetics to a single player, and remove all pay to win items available for purchase. Voting also required quite a few changes in order to stay compliant. If you haven't already read the post about the voting changes, you can read it here. We know this may upset some of you, but all of this was required by Mojang.
We have added mcMMO boosters to the store under Prison2, Prison3, Skyblock, Skyblock1 and PvPLegends. More store updates will be ruled out this week and should be available for purchase by Wednesday. Keep in mind, you will not lose anything you purchased in the past.

|Developing a custom login module
|Mon, 28 Apr 2008 00:09:41 GMT
Hi all, I'm trying to make Jetspeed use another user database in addition to its ordinary user database (I'm using Jetspeed 2.1.3 installed on a MySQL database). This database will contain a large number of users that are allowed to log on to the portal with the portal-user role. This database is an external database which has a fixed structure, I cannot change it. The original user database of Jetspeed will be used for privileged users such as admin. Here are some more points: - If possible, I don't want my custom authentication/authorization code to depend on Jetspeed's security classes, I want it to be JAAS compatible - I've tried developing a custom JAAS login module and plugging it in using login.conf, but I think that's not enough - I've also tried extending DefaultUserSecurityHandler and DefaultCredentialHandler, but I think I have to do some more because it seems like my users are not authorized to view the pages that other users can see - How are portlet preferences affected in this case? Will Jetspeed save my users' portlet preferences in its own database automatically, or will I also need to implement preference storage myself? I would like to learn the best approach to accomplish this task. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.. SerkanC

Karl: Kobe looks 'healthier and younger'February 25th, 2013, 6:29 pm by By KEVIN DING
DENVER -- Denver Nuggets coach George Karl is one of the best talkers in the NBA -- and he has been a believer that the Lakers should improve as the season goes on.
So before the Lakers-Nuggets game Monday night, Karl said he was glad the Nuggets don't have any other games scheduled against the Lakers.
Karl said he thought Steve Nash's broken leg really "messed" up the Lakers' season, but they seem to be pulling it together.
And Karl was clear that Kobe Bryant's performance has kept the Lakers together.
"This year he has been very impressive to me," Karl said. "He told me when they beat us last year in the playoffs that he was getting old. He was lying, man. He looks healthier and younger now than last year. The shots he is making are a coach's nightmare, because how do you guard him? You double him, but that opens it up for role players."
Karl also said Bryant would be in "everybody's top five" among the best NBA players ever.
As far as when Bryant might drop off from elite status, Karl said: "Mentally, if he was to lose that edge, I think his skills will probably follow."

Aliso Viejo council joins search for solutions in park dispute
ALISO VIEJO – Following complaints by Aliso Viejo Little League about parking at Woodfield Park, the City Council directed staff Wednesday night to look for possible solutions.
The discussion came after the Little League and the Aliso Viejo Community Association, which runs the park, butted heads two months ago. More than a dozen league members stormed out of a Feb. 11 meeting with the AVCA board because the board would not authorize 26 proposed parking spaces at Woodfield Park, 26800 Woodfield Drive, where the league plays baseball games.
AVCA said there were liability concerns with parking at the location and voted to do a parking study. At its March 11 meeting, the board approved a $3,500 analysis.
"We're tired of dealing with AVCA," Aliso Viejo Little League President Susan Booth told the City Council on Wednesday. "We're coming to you for help."
Booth told the AVCA board in February that the Little League would pay for fencing and to mark the parking spots behind Field 6 to help alleviate sparse parking on busy game days. With about 770 players for the 2013 season, league members had hoped AVCA would give them permission for the parking places before opening day Feb. 23, Booth said.
"If they're tired of dealing with us, I'm sorry, but we have the community to be concerned about and there are issues that go far above and beyond Little League that affect all of our homeowners and all of our members," AVCA President Bill Conley said in an interview.
Conley said that before Booth spoke to the council, AVCA had scheduled a meeting with her for the following Wednesday to talk about parking issues.
"If they feel that bullying and intimidation and yelling at us is going to change our minds, they're sadly mistaken," Conley said. "Talking and compromise is the way to get things done. She has to understand that they are playing their games on our property."
Councilman Phillip Tsunoda said he put discussion of the parking issues on the council agenda.
"It was clear to me that the Little League board of directors had some serious concerns about the tone and approach with which they were dealing with the Aliso Viejo Community Association," Tsunoda said. "So I felt compelled at least to have the opportunity to have this dialogue."
Booth said: "The coaches and managers, you know, they're heavily burdened with equipment. It's pretty sad for me now to watch coaches who volunteer hours and hours of time every week to have to haul their equipment from wherever."
Several possible solutions were discussed, including an idea by Mayor Carmen Cave that the city manage Woodfield Park instead of AVCA by "exercising an irrevocable offer of dedication on the park."
Conley said that option would come at a cost. AVCA General Manager Marilyn Smith said AVCA spends close to $300,000 a year to manage the park. Aliso Viejo Little League paid $4,350 in user fees last year, Smith said. This year, it has paid $3,900.
Councilman Bill Phillips proposed that the league try to lease the park.
Cave said the city needs to know more. "I know I can't do anything about the tone and approach, but we can look at a practical solution," she said. "At least start the process of discussion … and also going on a fact-finding hunt to make sure we're dealing with the facts and … not necessarily just perception or opinion."
Conley said the spaces would be used only by Little League board members, managers, umpires and others in a "select group."
"I don't want people to lose sight of that," he said. "It's not open to all the kids."

Europe's largest economy, Germany is off to a strong start this second quarter. While the United Kingdom is still struggling to boost its export numbers, German exports and industrial output increased more than expected.
German exports went up by 1.9% according to new numbers from the Federal Statistics Office published at the beginning of this week.
While economists predicted German imports to rise by 0.5%, this number instead dropped by 1.3%, adding to the country's trade surplus.
ING economist Carsten Brzeski to the press: "This morning's data shows that the economy has left its industrial hibernation behind". According to him, the newly released numbers are indicating a good start into the second quarter.
Meanwhile, analysts in the United Kingdom are urging that the UK is stepping up its exports. The British government wants to double exports by 2020, yet it's uncertain whether this goal can be achieved. For instance, exports from the UK to China had been at $16 billion in 2014 while those from Germany had been at $82 billion. This is the more troubling seeing that the United Kingdom has a very rich trading history. Industry analysts agree that stepping up the U.K.'s exports, especially to emerging markets in Asia would be crucial for a better economy in the UK.
Proper ergonomics at the workplace can play a significant role when it comes to employees health. While business owners will often not get around a thorough evaluation of workplaces, for instance with a complete workstation assessment, the easiest way to ensure improved workplace ergonomics is still with ergonomic desks and office chairs.
Fortunately, ergonomic furniture today is a big industry so that the average business owner won't have difficulties finding this type of ergonomic office furniture available in various price segments.
Depending on your requirements you can get rather affordable ergonomic office desks and chairs at many places today.
In some cases, if you want to improve ergonomics for your workers, replacing your chairs, desks or both could be all you need.
What are the advantages of ergonomic office chairs?
The main difference with ergonomic chairs is that they can be adjusted in multiple ways. Compared to ordinary chairs you can adjust ergonomic chairs in more ways, such as adjusting the tilt, the height of their armrests and so forth. This allows you to adapt the chair to every individual requirements with the result that any type of strain on the body can be reduced greatly.
Just know that for thorough ergonomics you will also have too look at other factors besides furnishings. This is where a work station assessment comes in. This type of professional workplace assessment can find everything that needs to improved if you want the complete ergonomics for your workstations.
With the cost of energy in the UK rising steeply and no signs on the horizon that this will stop anytime soon, saving energy has become a priority for many.
What's worse, according to a recent UK study, more than 60% of those surveyed stated they believe there is nothing they can do to combat the rising energy costs.
It is this uncertainty and unease over energy bills that led to a new partnership of leading UK businesses that are now wanting to promote a culture of energy efficiency and cost savings.
According to those companies, one priority must be how the issue of energy savings is communicated to the general public. Households in the United Kingdom must become aware of the fact that the can indeed control a large portion of the energy use.
Some of the largest British names in retailing other types of businesses such as Homebase, B&Q but also groups such as the National Trust and the Energy Saving Trust have joined the coalition named as Big Energy Vision.
The idea behind the coalition is that the combined, new case power of several large businesses and charities in the nation can make it easier to help Britons save money on their energy bills.
One goal of Big Energy Vision is to highlight practical actions that anyone can do when they want to take over control over their energy costs.

We booked this b&b direct, from Australia, when looking for an overnight stay on our travels through WI to Door County; the location was perfect and Lorraine and Neil could not have been more welcoming. Beautiful rooms with the finest attention to detail, and hosts who made us feel special, ensured we had the most comfortable stay one could wish for. Well done! oh, and Bentley was a charming part of the family. Our booking was for 1 room only, but Lorraine very kindly offered the extra room to give us some space - thank you so much. If we are ever up your way again, we will certainly stay at your wonderful b&b. All the best.

Our stay was wonderful! My husband and I were looking for a mini getaway at the Dells. I found Parkview B&B online and noticed that the rates were so much better than staying at a hotel in the Dells. Parkview B&B is also only a 20 minute drive from the Dells so I decided to make a reservation and I'm so glad I did. Our stay was relaxing because we weren't in the hustle and bustle of everything but still close enough to all the fun. Lorraine and Neil were wonderful hosts as they were friendly and hospitable. Lorraine asked if we had dietary restrictions and I mentioned that we are vegetarian so she planned a delicious breakfast around that. We truly enjoyed meeting Bentley, their miniature poodle. He was adorable! We will definitely stay again next time we want to visit the Dells! Thank you again Lorraine, Neil, and Bentley!

Gray Maynard has an impressive MMA record of 12-1-1.
He's earned two UFC lightweight title shots, and could garner a third with a victory over TJ Grant later this month at UFC 160: Velasquez vs. Silva II.
Should "The Bully" fail to deliver vs. either Grant or in the title match, though, he could be looking at ending his career without ever being recognized as a champion in the UFC.
Maynard's style is relentless and powerful, and his training regiment has taken away months – if not years – of his career. Heck, he's been on the sidelines since a win last June over Clay Guida due to tearing his knee in the gym.
While Maynard's career isn't hanging in the balance in the coming months, he'll turn 34 in a number of days and that isn't a young age in the world of MMA anymore.
The former Michigan State University wrestling standout can go with the best of them, but the lightweight division is quickly becoming deeper by the day with talented contenders. Gilbert Melendez, Pat Healy, Josh Thomson and Jorge Masvidal have all entered from Strikeforce, joining the crew of ex-WEC standouts like Donald Cerrone and division kingpin Benson Henderson.
Plus, Anthony Pettis will be returning soon, and Jose Aldo could be moving up to 155 in a matter of months, as well.
For Maynard, the time is now. His power could give Henderson fits, and he's got championship experience thanks to two fights with Frankie Edgar. If nothing else, maybe we'll get that next Maynard-Edgar epic battle before both hang it up for good.

Despite a high volume of of entrepreneurial activity, Ghana has a low rate of success in transforming small enterprises into larger, more productive companies, which can help to promote economic growth and create jobs. In 2013 with support from DFID, TechnoServe launched the Enhancing Growth in New Enterprises (ENGINE) project to support 1,000 small and growing businesses in Ghana over four and a half years.
Food processing provides the potential to create necessary jobs in Zambia's rural areas, as well as strengthening the competitiveness of the broader value chain. In partnership with the Department for International Development (DFID), TechnoServe has launched the year long Private Enterprise Program Zambia in order to provide business development services to informal Zambian retailers
TechnoServe is primarily responsible for reaching out to farmers towards implementation of extension activities and developing agriculture markets, establishing linkage between farmers and markets, monitoring farmer mobilization for formation of farmer groups and farmer producer organizations, training and capacity-building of farmers, farmer federations and Agriculture Department Officials, monitoring implementation of all initiatives in the cluster.
The Kenya Market Assistance Program helps to promote employment and income generation in various market systems in Kenya by addressing key constraints to growth in these sectors. TechnoServe works to strengthen the dairy sector through improved breeding, feed, veterinary services and supply chain management.
Staple crops like maize, soy and bean can provide much more than just subsistence for smallholders, they can also increase income, create jobs and improve food security. The Storage and Proper Post-Harvest Improvements for Resource Efficiency (SAPPHIRE) program, funded by the DFID, worked to capitalize on the potential of maize and increase incomes for farmers through increasing productivity and improved aggregation.
TechnoServe is an implementing partner in PrOpCom Mai-Karfi, a new six-year program working to increase the incomes of 500,000 northern Nigerians by 50 percent. Since the program kicked off in 2012, TechnoServe has led the evaluation of existing and potential PrOpCom markets, identifying soy and grain storage as promising opportunities for new interventions.
Since 2011, TechnoServe has managed Agro Initiative Zimbabwe, a grant facility funded by the Department for International Development, which operates as a business competition to support sustainable innovative ideas in agriculture through monetary awards and technical assistance.

I guess it's been three months now! ;-)
Thanks for reviewing Yam Leaf. Additional details that may be of interest to readers:
El Calderon's proprietor Lita Lopez (who lives nearby anyway) stayed on as consultant to Yam Leaf. And while this review stressed differences from El Calderon, and new dishes are indeed appearing, nevertheless most of Yam Leaf's menu is from El Calderon, a continuity unusual in the restaurant business under a new owner and name, but conspicuous if you compare a menu from El Calderon with the current one.
In a few meals there so far, I've noticed the spruced-up interior, and also that some of the cooking seems even fresher and livelier than under the El Calderon name, with delicate accents of new ingredients and spices. El Calderon's many fans (which included the Milk Pail's founder, as well as the late Herb Caen of the San Francisco Chronicle) have every reason to celebrate this respectful update of a venerable local landmark.

Phew! At least the main character isn't black this time. I just couldn't relate to CJ. As a white suburban kid who has never had to work for anything his entire life I can better relate to a ex-military guy from war-torn Eastern Europe!The other day MY GIRLFRIEND asked me, "What is it about Grand Theft Auto IV that makes so many people excited for it?" and I told her, "Well, it has a four at the end of the title."
While I could have told her about the Euphoria engine, the high definition graphics, and the numerous multiplayer modes, none of those things really matter. And unless that 13-year-old German kid's asteroid hits the Earth and ends humanity as we know it, this game will sell a bazillion copies no matter what the game is like.
Variety is already reporting that Grand Theft Auto IV will make enough money to fill the Grand Canyon all the way to the top. The U.S. Mint might as well move that whole operation to Rockstar Games studios in Scotland and put half the money they print directly into Dan Houser's wallet.
Since Grand Theft Auto IV is a hot topic at the moment and by writing about it we'll get more hits and ad revenue as people search for the latest information about the game on Google, in today's article we'll explore where the Grand Theft Auto series has been, where it's going, and examine some of the fierce competition it faces from the clones it has spawned.
I'm a 25-year-old man-child who can't think of anything else but some stupid new game that's coming out. Time to talk GTA.
I was a sophomore in high school when Grand Theft Auto III came out. I had just gotten my learner's permit and because my grandma was going senile and couldn't operate her motor vehicle without slamming it into parked cars and puppies, I was suckered into driving her everywhere she needed to go because I never developed a will of my own.
While running around the store trying to hunt down her hemorrhoid cream I came across GTA3. I said, "Gamma, buy me 'dis." She did and two weeks later she died. I'm not entirely convinced the two events aren't unrelated.
Grand Theft Auto III wasn't a particularly good game. I became bored pretty quickly and went online to solicit opinions from others. To my surprise I learned that it was a sleeper hit and everybody was raving about its open-world gameplay. Never one to shy away from jumping on a bandwagon I started posting on various message boards about how much a brilliant game it was.
I stand with PewDiePie.
In the coming days Prombles will completely revolutionize the way we think about useless household devices. With less expensive alternatives like Amazon's Echo and Google Home already on the market, what can our smart speaker offer you, the customer?
From what I understand, this genre is about getting eaten by crocodiles. I excel at this.
Ah yeah, that's the stuff

By The Associated Press
Josh Beckett became the first Boston Red Sox pitcher to win his first six starts since Roger Clemens in 1991, and is just two behind the team record shared by Babe Ruth and two others.
"I know he was a great hitter," Beckett said. "Any time you're mentioned in the same point as Babe Ruth, when you didn't give up one of his milestone home runs, is obviously a tremendous feat."
Beckett (6-0) allowed three runs and six hits with seven strikeouts and two walks to help the Red Sox beat Oakland 6-4 on Wednesday night.
He became the eighth Red Sox pitcher to win at least his first six starts. The team record of eight is shared by Ruth in 1917, Dave Ferriss in 1945 and Roger Moret in 1973.
The defeat was costly for the A's, who also lost Mike Piazza to a right shoulder injury that will sideline him for four-to-six weeks.
Piazza suffered the injury when he dived toward third base in the sixth and collided with third baseman Mike Lowell.
"My whole arm went numb," said Piazza, who suffered a strained AC joint. "It's a huge setback. It's just another challenge to try to get by."
Piazza went 2-for-3 and might have helped Oakland even more had he beaten Lowell to the bag.
"He was trying to avoid the tag. He just slid headfirst," Lowell said.
In other AL games, it was: Tampa Bay 4, Minnesota 3, 10 innings; Cleveland 7, Toronto 6, 11 innings; Detroit 3, Baltimore 2; Seattle 3, Chicago 2; Kansas City 3, Los Angeles 1; and the New York Yankees game at Texas was postponed by rain.
The win gave Boston a split of the two-game series after a 5-4 loss in 10 innings in a game in which Curt Schilling pitched well but Jonathan Papelbon blew his first save.
"I liked the fact that we saw Schilling and Beckett and Papelbon and they are some of the better pitchers in the game," Oakland manager Bob Geren said, "and we had a chance to win both games."
Beckett is the only pitcher with six wins this season, his second since Boston obtained him in a trade that sent Hanley Ramirez to Florida. The shortstop became the NL Rookie of the Year, while Beckett finished with a 5.01 ERA and allowed 36 homers, tied for second most in the majors, and was 16-13.
But this season, Beckett moved from the third-base side of the rubber to the middle and has relied more on an improved curveball and changeup after concentrating on his fastball in key situations last year.
Hideki Okajima, the AL rookie of the month for April, pitched the eighth, his 14th consecutive scoreless inning in 14 games. Mike Timlin pitched the ninth for his first save of the season but gave up an RBI single to Todd Walker.
Devil Rays 4, Twins 3, 10 innings
At St. Petersburg, Fla., pinch-hitter Dioner Navarro drove in the winning run with a grounder in the 10th after Tampa Bay rallied to tie in the ninth against Twins closer Joe Nathan.
The Devil Rays scored twice against Nathan, who blew his first save opportunity, on two-out RBI singles by Elijah Dukes and Ty Wigginton.
Carlos Pena had one-out infield single in the 10th off Matt Guerrier (0-1) that hit an overhanging catwalk and landed between first and second. Ben Zobrist pinch ran for Pena and appeared to be heading home with the game-winning run but stumbled rounding third on Brendan Harris' double and had stay at third.
Zobrist then scored on Navarro's grounder when he beat a throw to the plate by shortstop Jason Bartlett.
Al Reyes (1-0) pitched a scoreless 10th for Tampa Bay.
Indians 7, Blue Jays 6, 11 innings
At Cleveland, Travis Hafner dribbled an RBI double down the third-base line, out of the reach of Toronto's overshifted infield, and the Indians beat the Blue Jays.
With Toronto playing the Indians' powerful pull hitter to the right side, Hafner stuck out his bat and got enough of a low, outside pitch from Shaun Marcum (1-2) to send a slow roller toward third.
When the ball crept out of the dirt and onto the outfield grass, David Dellucci, who was on first after a broken-bat bloop single, was waved home by third-base coach Joel Skinner and scored easily to give Cleveland its ninth victory in 10 games.
Tom Mastny (2-0), the eighth and final pitcher available to manager Eric Wedge, pitched one inning.
Tigers 3, Orioles 2
At Detroit, Gary Sheffield went 4-for-4 with a home run and an RBI single, and Craig Monroe hit a tiebreaking homer in the sixth inning to lead the Tigers past the Orioles.
The Tigers earned their first sweep of the year and have won a season-high four straight. Baltimore has lost four in a row and nine of 10.
Nate Robertson (3-1) gave up two runs and seven hits over 6 2-3 innings. Todd Jones worked a perfect ninth for his 10th save.
Steve Trachsel (1-3) gave up three runs and eight hits over seven innings.
Mariners 3, White Sox 2
At Seattle, Yuniesky Betancourt hit a tiebreaking homer in the seventh inning and Miguel Batista gave up two runs and five hits in 7 1-3 innings to lead Seattle to its seventh win in eight games.
Jose Guillen also homered and Raul Ibanez had an RBI double to help the Mariners send Chicago to its fourth consecutive loss.
Betancourt hit a 1-0 fastball into Seattle's bullpen beyond left field off rookie John Danks (0-4).
Batista (3-2) allowed solo homers to Jermaine Dye and Paul Konerko but just three singles besides that against a lineup missing injured Jim Thome and Scott Podsednik.
Royals 3, Angels 1
At Kansas City, Mo., light-hitting Esteban German hit a three-run homer in the seventh inning and the Royals snapped the Angels' four-game winning streak.
German had only three major league homers in 441 at-bats before taking Ervin Santana (2-4) over the wall in left for his first homer in 144 at-bats.
Jorge De La Rosa (3-2) went seven innings, giving up five hits and one run, with two strikeouts and a walk as the Royals won for just the third time in 10 games.
Joakim Soria pitched the ninth for his fourth save.

The U.S. government does not have the room to house the influx of immigrants from south of the border and has had to bus them to different locations.
One of those locations is the small city of Murrieta in Southern California, which is expecting 140 immigrants every three days.
On a national holiday, marking the birth of a nation made up of immigrants, protesters for and against started a new round of demonstrations on Friday that became angry.
Murrieta is named after a man from Spain who set up his own sheep ranch with his family in 1873. Today the city is a flashpoint in the immigration crisis that is taking a grip along the U.S. border with Mexico.
Protesters have denounced the government transfer of detained undocumented immigrants to their city for processing.
Earlier this week, demonstrators blockaded three busloads from entering the city.
On Friday another convey of buses with immigrants aboard arrived in Murrieta.
One Murrieta resident expressed outrage about the crossing made by undocumented immigrants. He said there is a correct way and an incorrect way to enter the U.S. He said millions did it correctly but these people are not.
A counter protester from Long Beach said that the country was made up of immigrants and she was an undocumented student.
Only one protester was arrested on Friday.
Emotions have been on edge with racial slurs being shouted against Hispanics who were there defending the rights of the immigrants.
On Friday, the protesters held placards that spoke of it being about law and not race.
Other placards in support of the immigrants said that there are no illegal humans and no white supremacy.
The police were able to secure the road, making the entry by the buses to the Border Patrol easier
About a half mile from the border patrol office, a police yellow line held dozens of protesters back, while later in the day, police needed to separate the two feuding sides.
Protesters in favored of the immigrants chanted in Spanish that a race that is united is never defeated.
Police threatened to arrest protests if they started fighting.

2005 BMW 330Ci Convertible Full Detail (Start Up and Tour)
Finally! After all this time, we have yet another beautiful automobile come to the works of Carchitects Auto Detailing, where no car is too dirty for me. Today we present a 2005 BMW 330Ci Convertible, owned by a local client who wanted a full detail to prepare the vehicle for sale. It has 89K miles on the odometer and required a full detail to bring it up to a presentable condition for it's new owner. The vehicle was given a full 4 step exterior detail (minus the pre-wax polish due to it being a light colored vehicle), along with headlight protectant/ polish. The 18" painted wheels were washed and sealed, and the interior was run through with a fine toothed comb. To finish off, we detailed the engine bay and gave the car a true shimmer unlike any other. Thank you so much to the local client for her business, and if anyone wants any more info on how to get a full detail or other services from Carchitects Auto Detailing, check us out on Facebook at: www.facebook.com/CarchitectsAutoDetail Thank you for watching and enjoy!

Take It To The Limit by Eagles Songfacts
This is a good example of the "Southern California Sound," a mix of country, folk, and rock that the Eagles became known for. It's also a good example of melancholy lyrics wrapped in a sweet melody - another attribute of early Eagles songs. In this one, the singer is left longing for a woman and trying to make sense of it.
Don Henley, Randy Meisner and Glenn Frey wrote this song. Meisner sang lead, making this one of only three US Top 40 Eagles songs not sung by Don Henley or Glenn Frey, the others being "
I Can't Tell You Why
" (sung by
Timothy B. Schmit
) and "In the City" (sung by Joe Walsh).
Meisner, who is from rural Nebraska, was the most subdued member of the band, describing himself to
Rolling Stone
as "Shy and nervous about putting myself on the line." He was a founding member of the Eagles, but left in 1977 as tensions rose and the lifestyle became too much for him. Leaving the band was a good mental health decision.
Don Felder
, who joined in 1974, told us: "Really the only thing you can do when you're in the Eagles is eat, breathe, and sleep Eagles. I mean, you're either on the road, writing in the studio, or doing press - it's just all consuming."
Speaking about this song, Randy Meisner explained: "The line 'take it to the limit' was to keep trying. You reach a point in your life where you feel you've done everything and seen everything - it's part of getting old. And just to take it to the limit one more time, like every day just keep punching away at it. That was the line, and from there the song took a different course."
The high note at the end of this song was not easy for Randy Meisner to hit. He could pull it off in the studio, but not always in concert, since he would get nervous. At one point, he asked to take the song out of the set, which became a source of contention and a factor in him leaving the band.
In the 2013
History of the Eagles
documentary, Glenn Frey and Don Henley recall a show where "Take It To The Limit" was planned as the encore, but Meisner refused to do it. Frey says that he got in a fight with Meisner backstage, and that Henley made sure security at the venue stayed out of it so they could settle it. Meisner left the band soon after and was replaced by
Timothy B. Schmit
, who was in the band Poco.
Country music legends Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings do a country duet version of this song. It appears on the album
Many Sides of Willie Nelson
Suggestion credit
Julian - Oakland, AR
Jim Ed Norman arranged and conducted the strings. He worked on all of the Eagles albums before their 1982 breakup, and also did strings for Linda Ronstadt, who once had future members of the Eagles in her backup band.
This was one of 10 songs included on
Their Greatest Hits 1971-1975
, which for a short time was certified as the best selling album of all time in America. Michael Jackson's
eventually eclipsed it.

Very sad news per http://www.oldiesmusic.com/news.htm
The wife of Eagles and Poco co-founder, bassist Randy Meisner was found shot to death Sunday night (March 6th, 2016) in the couple's Studio City, California home. Earlier that afternoon police had been called by Lana Rae Meisner because Randy was waving a BB gun and "acting erratically." However, two hours after police left, Randy called to report that Lana had shot herself or been killed by accident. An unidentified suspect was reported arrested and Randy was taken to a hospital in the early morning hours "acting in an altered state." He left the group in 1977 and suffered from bi-polar disorder.
May she R.I.P.
Barry - Sauquoit, Ny
Randy Meisner is not the only lead singer on a hit song from the state of Nebraska. I can think of four right off... "In-a-gadda-da-vida" with Iron Butterfly's Doug Ingle of Omaha as lead singer and "She's a Beauty" with the Tubes Fee Waybill singing, also an Omaha native. 38 Specials lead singer on "Second Chance" is Max Carl, from Humphrey, Nebraska. And not least... "In the year 2525" by Zager and Evans, from Lincoln.
Joe - Grand Island, Nebraska
On March 7th 1976, "Take It To The Limit" by the Eagles peaked at #4 (for 2 weeks) on Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart; it entered the chart on December 14th, 1975 at position #80 and spent 22 weeks on the Top 100...
It also reached #4 on Billboard's Adult Contemporary Tracks chart...
Was the fourth in a string of six straight records by the group to make the Top 10; started with "Best of My Love" (#1 for 1 week), "One of These Nights" (#1 for 1 week), "Lyin' Eyes" (#2 for 2 weeks), this one, "New Kid In Town" (#1 for 1 week), and finally "Hotel California" (#1 for 1 weeks)...
"Life in the Fast Lane" broke the string; but only by one position, it peaked at #11 (for 2 weeks)...
Randy Meisner will celebrate his 68th birthday tomorrow on March 8th (2014).
Barry - Sauquoit, Ny
How is this not considered one of the greatest songs of all time? There are few songs that come close to this song's magnificence. This song will never get old.
Jon - Columbus, Oh
Donna, I hadn't ever heard that about this song...but I came on here looking for some explanation of the lyrics and find none. It's just a big debate over the singers and their personal lives. I was a teenager in the 70s and yet the Eagles never really did much for me. There isn't a single song of theirs that I find ultra-amazing. I'm not even sure why they are so important to so many people. But that's just me. I don't hate their music, but I'm not crazy about it, either.
Camille - Toronto, Oh
Someone told me that this song was about suicide. Is this fact or fiction?
Donna - Delaware City, De
Not many bands nowadays can stay together as The Eagles have,write/sing great songs,and a band to have most of it's members singing,In fact i'am so sure The Eagles had another member not mention here,JD Souther was he an Eagle?
Jorge - Bronx, Ny
I saw Randy Meisner sing this with the Eagles once on the "One of These Nights" Tour at Kemper Arena in Kansas Cith the night before Thanksgiving. He has an awesome voice and is part of the original Eagles quintisential sound. I saw their next Tour "Hotel California" at Arrowhead Stadium a few years later and he was replaced by Tim Schmidt. Meisners' "Try And Love Again" was never released as a single from hotel California because he left the band, which is also a great vocal performance.
Steve - Trabuco Canyon, Ca
I wonder why Meisner has been called as subdued. He wasn't subdued, its just that Henley and Frey led the band since they were also the key writers and hence they decided the types of songs the band will write and sing. By the way, the fact about this being one of the only 3 top 40 songs from the Eagles which were not sung by Henley/ Frey could be wrong (the other 2 being I Can't Tell You Why and In The City) - since Love Will Keep Us Alive was also under top 40, it could have also been # 1.
Mayank - Ranchi, India
Marie, like the other post indicates, Timothy B. Schmit sings lead on "I Can't Tell You Why". But regardless you are correct that it is an amazing vocal. And really, how can anyone not LOVE the Eagles?
Joe - Frankfor, Ky
I used to listen to the eagles with my mom. This song has special meaning to me especially regarding the line " you can spend all your love making time" great lyrics...so true. Randy's voice in " I can't tell you why" simply awesome. Eagles still rock.
Marie - Buffalo, Ny
When Rolling Stone did its top 100 albums, it specifically left off all of the artists from the California Sound genre, arguing that it was "anti-rock." Sounds like they grudgingly included some of these on the list of singles.
Frank - Lexington, Ky
Meisner left because he couldn't take the rock and roll lifestyle anymore. The endless touring, marathon studio session, drugs and groupies. He wanted a home and family. There were no hard feelings between him and the rest of the band. He even rejoined the band for a special apperance in the early 1990's to promote the "Common Threads" album where country signers covered Eagles songs. Also I heard an interview with Glenn Frey who said they really debated on doing this song in their reunion tours, since it was really a Randy Meisner song. In the end, the felt their fans would be disappointed if they didn't at least give it a try. Frey said he volunteered to sing lead, since Don Henley was reluctant to do it.
Ken - Louisville, Ky
This is Randy's song,no offense, but Frey can't hold a candle to Randy on this one..Great song..
Jim - Long Beach, Ca
Randy left because things got hard dealing with success and the long tours, he simply got tired and wanted to spend more time with his family. Don and Glenn they didn{t want to stop touring and recording in spite of fame and money. Don Felder wrote this in his book "Heaven and Hell".
Victor - Hermosillo Sonora, Mexico
This is one of my all-time fave songs. Hotel California is up there too, but this one is just the tops for me! I even loved it as a little kid and remember listening to it on the jukebox at a small cafe.
Janetlee - Panama City, Fl
My father, who was in college around the time of this song, had a nerdy calculus teacher who would joke, "Alright guys, we're gonna do like the Eagles and 'take it to the limit one more time' ha ha..."
Emily - Ocean Springs, Ms
My older brother loves Randy Meisner's voice. I hated this song when I was like 8 years old. I think it was because I didn't know what the lyrics meant and it kept repeating "take it to the limit". It probably annoyed the hell out of me. But I love the song now.
Liz - Smallville, Ks
I simply can't somach Frey singing this.. its way too much Randy for me. If they are gonna ditch him for the reunion they should have left this one out. But Frey and Henley have too much hubris.
Jeff - Chicago, Ga
I love this song. It says what I feel most of the time. Like so much is happening in life that you just have to say, okay, just take it the limit one more time, stretch me once more. The details change but the theme is the same.
Diane - Orlando, Fl
I made it thru my teenage years thanks to the Eagles. Randy Meisner leaving was devastating. The Eagles were Great with him and only good without. I really miss that voice in the harmony and think Take It To The Limit was one of there Greatest songs.He is definetly Not Arrogant!! I really still enjoy his solo releases .
chris va
Chris - Rh, Va
the first concert i ever saw was at assmebly hall at the university of illinois. the warmup act was marshall tucker followed by the eagles. the year was 1973. take it to the limit was a great song. why meisner sang lead is beyond me. when the group has glenn frey and don henley to sing it makes no sense. most eagles songs were written by frey and/or henley. some were by jackson brown.
Rick - Tuscola, United States
I love the flow of this song. The Eagles had a ton of big hits, but I think this was one of the more underrated ones.
Ryan - Kansas City, Ks
Mike -- Hotel California was No. 49 on the list and Desperado was No. 494. But you're right, The Eagles were tremendously underrepresented on that list.
Ryan - Kansas City, Ks
The Eagles Greatest Hit album is the # 1 selling album in U.S. History yet only one song from this album made it in the Rolling Stone's Top 500. What a crock ! Anyone please correct me if I missed a song on there but I don't believe I did. One way or another the Rolling Stone list is a worthless crock !
Mike - Hueytown , Al
The statement that Randy Meiner is the only one from Nebraska to sing lead on a Top 40 hit is incorrect. Denny Zager & Rick Evans of Zager & Evans had a #1 hit in 1969 with "In The Year 2525".
Don Ludden - Lincoln, Ne
omg, glenn frey said that on "farewell 1" dvd about this "credit-card" song!!!!! :)
Sara Mackenzie - Middle Of Nowhere, Fl
Glenn Frey also calls this song "the credit card song", because of his wife in plaintiff! ;-)
Jimmy - Vienna
1. Eagles Greatest Hits is indeed the biggest selling album in the history of the music business, surpassing Michael Jackson's "Thriller" about 7 years ago.
2. Take It to the Limit is indeed in "waltz" time, although it almost sounds like it's in 6/8 time.
3. Meisner was almost certainly the least arrogant member of the band. In fact, one major point of contention between him and the other guys was that he was uncomfortable singing it live, and constantly begged to not be forced to take the spotlight during the show. (It was their only hit in which he sang lead vocal.)
Garrett - Nashville, Tn
Man, that song does not quit. I like it though, it's got a very upbeat feel to me in spite of its lyrics for some reason. Must be the waltz-like ballad arrangement.
Josh - Magnolia, Ar
um, Eagles: Their Greatest Hits is NOT the best selling album of all time. It was the best selling album of the 20th century in the U.S..
Bsd987 - Long Island, Ny
eagles rock, end of story
Sara Mackenzie - Middle Of Nowhere, Fl
As I grew up listening to the albums by The Eagles I have to say that have inspired me. Take It To The Limit is one of my favourites. It's just a shame that they weren't as successful in my country.
Paul - London, England
and i think thats hilarious colin from columbis about your teacher. priceless
Meagan - Baton Rouge, La
great song very good
Meagan - Baton Rouge, La
Calling Randy Meisner arrogant in the context of The Eagles is a bit of a stretch. He left simply because after a certain point, they couldn't stand each other. Randy left AFTER "Hotel California", which any listener would have to agree was the group's high-water mark. His solo career may have seen limited success, but consider that the group's output in the 25+ years since he left has been "The Long Run" and "Hell Freezes Over". He picked a good a time as any to head out on his own.
Mike - Alexandria, Va
Glenn Frey sang lead vocals on this song during the Farewell I Tour. In his usual good humor he said that his wife referred to it as "the credit card song"
Clay - Chattanooga, Tn
This was a huge hit for the Eagles, and Randy Meisner sang lead vocals. Randy got a little arrogant after the success of this song, decided to leave the Eagles and start a solo career.
He eventually catapulted into obscurity while the Eagles continued to become legendary.
One of the music industries bad decisions of all time!
Dougie - Orlando, Fl
I always loved this song, but it's meaning changed dramatically back in high school. My calculus teacher was a big Eagles fan, and when we were taught the concept of limits, this song was played continuously to get us in the mood for math.
Take it to the limit....one more time.
Colin - Columbia, Md

"That's right… That's Ashes #4 … #BOOOOOM," Kevin Pietersen tweeted after bad light stopped play and ended another dramatic Test match. While #4 was meant to denote Pietersen's fourth Ashes series win (2005, 2009, 2010-11, 2013), it could have easily been about a momentous 4-0 series scoreline, which England almost achieved. Former Ashes winning captain Michael Vaughan tweeted on Sunday evening: "What a F***ing joke … #Ashes. I hope the ICC are realising they are ruining the game!!!!!!"
Bad blood
There was bad blood leading into the final day of the series. On the eve of the Test, Australia coach Darren Lehmann accused Stuart Broad of "blatant cheating". On Friday, Michael Clarke and Pietersen, with Shane Watson the instigator, raged over each other's popularity, or a lack of it, in their respective dressing rooms. And then, the Aussies took potshots at the England batsmen for their cautious approach.
When it was done and dusted, Vaughan, like many at the Oval, went too far. With England unable to create history despite needing just 21 from four overs, the series ended on a bitter note.
According to reports, four hours later, the home team celebrated their Ashes success by urinating on the pitch. For many, the pitch is holy turf. And this act by the England team would discern them from great cricket teams of the past, who treated success with a touch of humility. The cockiness, some would say, could be done without, not to speak of such shocking behaviour.
Australian journalist Malcolm Conn wrote in the Herald Sun: "While the centre of the ground was quite dark, lights were on in the grandstands with dozens of people still cleaning up after a late finish which saw the game go beyond 7.30pm. A number of players including Broad, Pietersen and Jimmy Anderson took turns urinating on the pitch to the cheers of their team mates. This could be clearly seen from the outside overflow areas of the press box."
Hands off
England's players got carried away while marking their territory, in a manner of speaking. Dave Richardson, International Cricket Council CEO and former South Africa Test wicketkeeper, felt the sport's governing body was not in a position to punish Broad or Pietersen. "We believe it's a matter for the ECB to look into. From a personal point-of-view, as a former cricketer, I don't appreciate such an act, considering that the pitch is the Holy Grail to some cricketers," he told the Hindustan Times.
"But in my official capacity, I would rather leave the matter to the ECB to resolve. If they feel it was a breach of discipline by some English players, they must get the due penalty for the same," he added.
But isn't it the ICC's role to protect the heavily advertised "Spirit of Cricket"? "Yes, it is. But in this situation, the matter must be addressed by the ECB."
Alec Stewart, the former England captain who played a whole lot of cricket at the Oval, his home ground, hoped the incident would be seen in a lighter vein. "I haven't bothered to get into the details of it because England have just won the Ashes and emotions are running high. But whatever happened at the Oval, it just did, and we must just move past it. I just hope everyone takes it in good spirits, because it wasn't exactly a sign of disrespect towards anyone," he told HT.
