Have you reached that point in your life when you don't need to be concerned about your credit score? I'm sorry, that was a trick question. No matter your age, you need to know that your credit report is accurate and you should know your credit score. However, in a recent study by researchers at the University of Missouri-St. Louis, the University of Arizona and Fair Isaac Corp., only one in four older adults checks their credit scores with any regularity.
"Our results from this study indicate that consumers in general, and senior citizens in particular, need to review their credit reports regularly," says Thomas H. Eyssell, associate dean and professor of finance at the University of Missouri-St. Louis, and one of the authors of the study. "Seniors' lack of attention to their credit reports is troubling, given the potential for errors in consumer credit files."
No matter where you are in life, you don't want someone reporting inaccurate information about your use of credit, and you certainly don't want someone using your identity to obtain credit in your name. But knowing your credit health can be equally important looking forward. Many seniors who have paid off their homes and eliminated all debt may find that they have no credit profile or credit score later when they want or need credit. Further, most insurance companies, rental properties and some employers will review your credit report. You may pay a higher rate for insurance, be denied housing or not receive an employment offer if you have poor or no credit.
At a minimum, you should review your credit reports annually to check for errors, inaccuracies and incomplete information. Information on credit reports is automatically removed after seven to ten years, depending on the type of credit and information, but you should request corrections and dispute incorrect information on your report as soon as you find them.
The Fair Credit Reporting Act requires each of the nationwide consumer reporting companies (Equifax, Experian and TransUnion) to provide you with a free copy of your credit report, at your request, once every 12 months. To order your reports, visit annualcreditreport.com or call 1-877-322-8228. Learn more about your credit report including how to dispute information on the report from Annual Credit Report.
While you may not see a need for good credit, knowing what is in your credit profile is important at any age. From buying a car or major appliance to downsizing your home or co-signing for a child or grandchild, knowing your credit is an easy and valuable way to keep more money in your pocket.

R-Phils take homer derby to next level
Dark Knight comes to Fresno, Minors celebrate Independence
By Benjamin Hill / MLB.com | July 3, 2012 1:58 PM ET
On June 18, the Charleston RiverDogs staged the preliminary round of the South Atlantic League Home Run Derby from atop the USS Yorktown aircraft carrier. With an estimated crowd of 400 fans looking on, participants bashed balls into Charleston Harbor and these water-logged spheres were then retrieved by volunteers on jet-skis.
A case could certainly be made that the RiverDogs' aquatic afternoon was the most creative home run derby in professional baseball history, but when all's said and done, it might not even be No. 1 among home run derbies staged in the last month. The Reading Phillies jump into the fray on Tuesday, and big things are expected from a franchise whose nightly entertainment already includes mascot rock bands, chaotic vegetable races and, of course, the Crazy Hot Dog Vendor.
The R-Phils' derby will feature a full slate of the Eastern League's top sluggers, and though the participants could very well include future Major League superstars, it will be tough to focus on the man at the plate. This is because, quite literally, the entire field of play will be an area of focus. From the press release:
[P]layers will be trying to hit select targets around the field to earn points. ... Targets include outfield dunk tanks, R-Phils fanatics jumping on a trampoline, and pink flamingo yard ornaments sprinkled around the outfield.
Conversely, there will be obstacles hitters will want to avoid in order to not lose points. The Reading Phillies mascots will be scattered around the field, trying to snag balls hit by the All-Stars. For each ball the mascots catch, the hitter will be penalized with negative points.
While the hitting challenge is going on, an exclusive VIP party will actually take place right on the infield. These VIP quests will be protected by a net as they party away with home-run balls sailing over their heads.
This is the sort of thing that will probably only make sense after it has happened (and even that's not a guarantee). Those who feel the need to get a better sense of the spectacle about to unfold are advised to watch the explanatory video that the R-Phils produced this past January. But perhaps the best thing to do would be to make your way to Reading for what will be the most memorable home run derby of the past three weeks.
And, quite possibly, ever.
America at its absolute finest
An Independence Day (or night) spent at a Minor League ballpark is sure to be an unbridled celebration of American pride, with fireworks and grilled meats being a prerequisite of the experience. And in Des Moines it will also be an occasion to perpetuate the legacy of all-inclusiveness that has made America a country worth celebrating in the first place. That evening's Iowa Cubs game will be preceded by an on-field naturalization ceremony in which 29 immigrants from 19 countries receive U.S. citizenship. One of these newly minted Americans will throw out a ceremonial first pitch, a ritualistic offering that will usher in a sure-to-be-memorable evening at the ballpark.
Getting it done on both ends
91-year-old grandmother Anne Kenyon made national headlines last month, when she ably (and by all reports, fearlessly) made a barehanded catch of a foul ball at a San Jose Giants game. This significant instance of nonagenarian accomplishment isn't going to go uncommemorated at the venue in which it occurred, as on Friday the Giants are having Kenyon (now 92!) throw out a ceremonial first pitch. The team reports that Kenyon will "bring a bus with 25 of her closest friends," but no word yet whether she'll be the one driving.
Prior to July 4's regularly scheduled contest, the Stockton Ports are hosting a "vintage" ballgame featuring a cavalcade of retired MLB players. But the mere presence of the likes of Cecil Fielder, Warren Brusstar, Steve Sax, Dave Stewart and Kevin Mitchell isn't what makes the game vintage. The participants will actually be adhering to 1886 rules and traditions and using equipment from that era as well. If you've ever dreamed of seeing Mark Whiten make a bare-handed putout on a one-hopper hit to the outfield, then by all means don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
The women of Montgomery are in mourning
Right-handed reliever Alex Koronis was recently demoted from the Montgomery Biscuits to the Charlotte Stone Crabs, a transaction had repercussions felt far beyond the clubhouses in question. On Friday, the Biscuits had scheduled a promotion with the self-explanatory name of Win a Date with Alex Koronis, which gave the region's eligible single women the chance to win a date with the sultry 24-year-old right-hander. Thus far the team has been mum on whether another player will be made available; in the meantime, the single women of Port Charlotte are rejoicing over the fact that Koronis has returned to their fair city.
Into the ellipse...
A brief rundown of other notable promotions taking place this week, featuring giveaways aplenty...
- July 4: The Trenton Thunder once again take the field in their ultra-colorful Stars and Stripes theme jerseys, a year after Derek Jeter sported one during a rehab assignment (he was less than complimentary).
- July 5: In Brooklyn, the Cyclones poke fun at hipster fashion and art during Williamsburg Night. ... Twenty years after their first attempt, the Fort Myers Miracle attempt to conjure the spirit of Thomas Edison in an on-field séance. You read that correctly. ... "Whodunit?" will be the question of the evening, as the Lancaster JetHawks host Murder Mystery Night.
- July 6: To celebrate the release of the latest Batman film, the Fresno Grizzlies take the field in dark, brooding and thoroughly intimidating superhero theme jerseys. ... In Altoona, the Curve give away dreadlock hats in honor of Buccos superstar and reigning NL Player of the Month Andrew McCutchen. ... It'll be a night to remember forever in Northwest Arkansas, as the Naturals are attempting to set a world record in the esteemed category of "most people doing the robot dance at once."
- July 8: The Kane County Cougars are on the road but Fifth Third Bank Ballpark will be packed nonetheless, as hometown heroes Wilco are performing there. ... Boxer Buster Douglas is the latest Columbus icon to be honored with his own bobblehead, courtesy of the Clippers.
- July 9: The Tri-City ValleyCats honor Governor Andrew Cuomo with his own bobblehead, as part of their "I Love NY" festivities.

What Is Behçet's Disease?
Fast Facts: An Easy-to-Read Series of Publications for the Public
Behçet's (Beh-CHETS or Beh-SHETS) disease is an illness that causes symptoms in various parts of the body. The more common symptoms include sores in the mouth and on the genitals (sex organs). More serious symptoms can include inflammation (swelling, heat, redness, and pain) in the eyes and other parts of the body.

Who Gets Behçet's Disease?
Behçet's disease is common in some parts of the world, but it is rare in the United States. Although people of all ages can develop the disease, it mainly affects people in their twenties or thirties.
What Causes Behçet's Disease?
Nearly all of the symptoms of Behçet's disease are due to an inflammation of the blood vessels. Doctors aren't sure what causes this inflammation. Some people may have inherited (passed on from parent to child) a problem with the immune system that makes them more likely to develop the disease. For these people, contact with substances in the environment, such as bacteria or viruses, may cause the immune system to attack the blood vessels. Behçet's disease is not contagious; it is not spread from one person to another.
What Are the Symptoms of Behçet's Disease?
The symptoms of Behçet's disease differ from one person to the next. Some people have only mild symptoms, such as sores in the mouth, while others have more severe problems, such as vision loss.
The five most common symptoms of Behçet's disease are:
- Mouth sores
- Genital sores
- Other skin sores
- Swelling of parts of the eye
- Arthritis (pain, swelling, and stiffness in the joints).
Less common symptoms include:
- Inflammation in the brain and spinal cord
- Blood clots
- Inflammation in the digestive system (the parts of the body that digest food)
- Blindness.
Symptoms may appear, disappear, and then reappear. The times when a person is having symptoms are called flares.
How Is Behçet's Disease Diagnosed?
Behçet's disease is hard to diagnose because:
- The symptoms do not usually appear all at once
- There are other illnesses that have similar symptoms
- There is no single test to diagnose Behçet's disease.
The symptoms that are key to diagnosing Behçet's disease include:
- Mouth sores at least three times in 12 months
- Any two of the following:
- Genital sores that go away and come back
- Eye inflammation with loss of vision
- Sores on the skin
- Positive skin prick test (the appearance of small red bumps when the skin is pricked with a needle).
Because it may take months or even years for all the common symptoms to appear, the diagnosis may not be made for a long time. Patients can help their doctors to diagnose Behçet's disease by keeping a record of their symptoms and when they occur.
What Kind of Doctor Treats a Patient With Behçet's Disease?
Behçet's disease affects many different parts of the body. In order to treat their symptoms, patients may have to see several kinds of doctors, including:
- Dermatologists (doctors who treat skin disorders)
- Rheumatologists (doctors who treat arthritis and other inflammatory disorders)
- Ophthalmologists (eye doctors)
- Gynecologists (doctors who treat women's sex organs)
- Urologists (doctors who treat bladder conditions and men's sex organs)
- Gastroenterologists (doctors who treat digestive problems)
- Hematologists (doctors who treat blood problems)
- Neurologists (doctors who treat nervous system problems).
It may be helpful to have one doctor to manage treatment and monitor side effects from the medication.
How Is Behçet's Disease Treated?
The goal of treatment is to reduce pain and prevent serious problems. Common treatments include:
- Corticosteroids (medication to reduce pain and inflammation)
- Immunosuppressive drugs (medication that helps control the immune system, reduce inflammation, and prevent disease flares)
- Rest during flares
- Moderate exercise, such as swimming or walking, during periods of remission (a disappearance of symptoms).
Can Behçet's Disease Be Cured?
There is no cure for Behçet's disease, but most people can control symptoms with treatment.
What Research Is Being Done on Behçet's Disease?
Researchers are exploring:
- Improved drug treatments
- The role of certain genes in the development of the disease
- The role of factors in the environment, such as bacteria and the virus that causes cold sores.

The Oakland Athletics acquired infielder Jed Lowrie and right-hander Fernando Rodriguez from the Houston Astros for first baseman Chris Carter and two minor leaguers on Monday.
Right-hander Brad Peacock and catcher Max Stassi also went to Houston in the deal between franchises that will be playing in the same division for the first time following the Astros' move from the NL Central to the AL West in 2013.
Lowrie batted .244 with 16 homers and 42 RBIs in 97 games with Houston, missing two months with ankle and thumb injuries. Despite the limited playing time, Lowrie tied for the fourth most homers among all shortstops last year.
Oakland general manager Billy Beane said he has had interest in Lowrie for years and was glad to be able to get the chance to add him to the roster.
"He always had good power for a guy in the middle of the infield," Beane said. "It's just hard to find that kind of power from a guy who can play the middle of the infield and doing it as a switch-hitter."
Lowrie played exclusively at shortstop last season but previously played first, second and third base as well during his four years with the Boston Red Sox. The A's had previously signed Japanese shortstop Hiroyuki Nakajima to a $6.5 million, two-year contract.
Nakajima starts off as the shortstop but Beane said there will be plenty of chances for Lowrie to play all over the infield.
"I feel most comfortable at shortstop," Lowrie said. "But I've played some second base in my career as well. I'm certainly more comfortable up the middle than anywhere else on the diamond. But I've had some experience at third base."
Lowrie, who played his college ball at nearby Stanford, agreed to a $2.4 million salary to avoid arbitration. The Astros are likely to have the lowest payroll in the majors in 2013.
The move sends Lowrie from a rebuilding franchise that had a major league-worst 107 losses last season to a young club coming off a surprising division title in 2012 and one with high hopes for this season.
"Considering everyone had pegged either the Rangers or Angels to win it, it was a great story to watch from a distance," Lowrie said. "It's a group of young guys that obviously knows how to win. Hopefully, we'll just continue to get better."
Rodriguez went 2-10 with a 5.37 ERA in 71 relief appearances last year. He struck out 78 batters in 70 1-3 innings. Despite the poor record and high ERA, Beane sees plenty to like from the hard-throwing Rodriguez.
"He's got a real big arm," Beane said. "His record, his ERA are probably a little bit misleading. He's another guy to add to our bullpen depth, which was one of our strengths last year. We felt like we were giving them a pretty good package. This addition helped us get over the finish line."
Carter batted .239 with 16 homers and 39 RBIs in 67 games with Oakland last year, platooning at first base with left-handed hitting Brandon Moss. He provides needed power for the Astros and could thrive at hitter-friendly Minute Maid Park.
Beane said it was difficult to part with a player like Carter who twice won the award as the organization's top minor leaguer, but he saw little opportunity for Carter to get substantial at-bats with four regular outfielders who would rotate at designated hitter and Brandon Moss likely getting most of the first base at-bats against right-handed pitching.
Lowrie provided much more immediate help.
"Given where this club finished last year and that we have the chance to compete this year we wanted to do whatever we could to help us out right now," Beane said.
Peacock was acquired by Oakland from Washington in the deal that sent Gio Gonzalez to the Nationals following the 2011 season. After going 15-3 with a 2.39 ERA in the minors in his final year in the Nationals system, Peacock was 12-9 with a 6.01 ERA at Triple-A Sacramento last season. He was ranked as Oakland's top pitching prospect for 2013 by Baseball America.
The 21-year-old Stassi batted .268 with 15 homers and 45 RBIs in 84 games at Class A Stockton in 2012 and was considered Oakland's top catching prospect.
"This trade gives us power, pitching and catching," Astros general manager Jeff Luhnow said in a statement. "Three valuable commodities that will help improve our organization."
Romo cleared
Prosecutors in Las Vegas are letting San Francisco Giants pitcher Sergio Romo off the hook in a misdemeanor case stemming from a New Year's Day tiff with Transportation Security Administration agents at McCarran International Airport. An aide to Clark County District Attorney Steve Wolfson said Monday that a screening panel used prosecutorial discretion to shelve the case. Romo had faced a Feb. 12 court date and the possibility of six months in jail and a $1,000 fine.
He was issued a summons Jan. 1 alleging he failed to provide proper identification at a TSA checkpoint at the Las Vegas airport. The Giants later released a statement in which the 29-year-old Romo apologized.
Around the horn
Tigers • Detroit agreed to a one-year, $6,725,000 contract with right-hander Max Scherzer and avoided salary arbitration. Scherzer was 16-7 last season with a 3.74 and struck out 231, a total that trailed only teammate Justin Verlander. He was 1-0 with a 2.08 ERA in the postseason, helping Detroit reach the World Series.
Rays • Heralded prospect Wil Myers is among seven minor leaguers Tampa Bay has invited to major league spring training this month. The 22-year-old was one of the key acquisitions in an offseason trade that sent pitchers James Shields and Wade Davis to the Kansas City Royals. Myers hit a combined .314 with 37 homers and 109 RBI in 134 games with Double-A Northwest Arkansas and Triple-A Omaha last season.
Giants • San Francisco claimed infielder Tony Abreu off waivers from the Kansas City Royals. The 28-year-old Abreu hit .257 with one homer and 15 RBIs in 22 games for the Royals in 2012 after spending a majority of the campaign at Triple-A Omaha.
Rockies • Former Colorado first base coach Glenallen Hill will manage the organization's top farm team in Colorado Springs this season. Hill had coached first base with the Rockies from 2007-2012.

An Memorial Day concert and party on a sandbar on the Suwannee River that is popular with boaters got out of hand with fights and gunfire and the arrests of three people on Sunday by state Fish and Wildlife officers.
A concert that drew about 1,500 people and 400 boats and watercraft was going on at the sandbar near Hart Springs in Gilchrist County, according to an FWC spokeswoman. The agency had seven officers in three boats on the river at the time.

Honestly, this one is a dead heat between two unforgettable, back-to-back GableStage standouts: Angie Radosh's intolerant, grieving mother in Mothers and Sons, and Natalia Coego's untethered id of Judaism in Bad Jews. In the interest of variety — Radosh, after all, has become the Meryl Streep of South Florida theater — this award goes to the upstart Coego, a still-unfamiliar face on Miami stages, whose performance as the devout, delusional, and argumentative Daphna Feygenbaum felt transmitted from somewhere else, like a divided synagogue in Williamsburg or a Tel Aviv café on an election eve. Wearing a frazzled nest of hair and peppering her performance with subtly condescending body language, Coego spewed judgmental proclamations and insults that spilled forth with an inextinguishable velocity and impact, disproving the old adage about sticks and stones. Words can indeed hurt, to the point of severing families with the sort of permanence only religion can provide.
Sidebar is packed with contradictions. One of its owners used to work at Opium Group, the bottle-service-king of South Beach that manages clubs like Mansion and SET. Another used to be the manager at Bar, a dearly departed downtown hipster hole in the wall. Their former employers, in other words, represented diametrically different dimensions of Dade nightlife. At Sidebar, the cavernous inside — with black walls, a stage, and a large dance floor — is the perfect place to be drowned in sound and to dance the night away. The ample outdoor area, in contrast, provides a place to catch a break and some conversation. On Wednesday, Sidebar features live jazz, Fridays is for hip-hop, and Saturdays are open format. It's ladies' night on Thursday, when there are the standard free drinks at the beginning of the night for women — but also free ice cream for all. Sidebar can't even be easily geographically categorized. It sits at the juncture of Brickell and Little Havana. And yet all these elements come together perfectly. Sidebar isn't trying too hard to be one thing, but it's not trying too hard to please everyone either. It's just great.

Coyo Taco is a bright, fast-casual taco joint in Wynwood — with a dark secret. To find it, walk past the bathrooms and down the hall. There, you'll find a small, square room, softly lit by novena candles. A DJ plays a mix of soft house music, and people lounge on comfortable sofas. You've found Coyo Taco's hush-hush bar. The small space is home to 50 tequilas and mezcals, all of which can be mixed into the bar's inventive cocktails created by Coyo partner Anna Robbins. There's a banana margarita, called the Anna Bannana (the extra "N" refers to Robbins' childhood nickname), made with a rare Brazilian banana liqueur, and rimmed with sal de gusano, a Mexican salt made with ground gusano worms (the same ones getting drunk at the bottom of your Mezcal bottle). For health nuts falling off the wagon, there's a chia margarita. But with 100-degree heat fast approaching, go for the bar's PaletaRitas ($14). A locally made paleta is cut in half. One part is used in the margarita; the other half serves as both garnish and refreshingly icy swizzle stick. In flavors like cocopassion and chili cucumber, these PaletaRitas are the most refreshing and boozy treat in Miami. The fact that they're served in a secret bar filled with lit effigies of saints pushes the coolness factor off the charts.
You say you want your cheap drinks with a side of ribs? Come on down to Billy's Pub Too, friend. An average bar might have a two-hour window of discounts known as "Happy Hour," but Billy's has its time frame stretched to a full workday. That's correct; it runs an eight-hour Happy Hour from 4 p.m. until midnight with drink specials. It also ups the ante on Thursdays, when you can get 99-cent beer with a valid college ID. If you are looking for more than cheap booze, Billy's boasts four pool tables, a back patio with a tiki bar, and foosball to keep you busy. And don't forget those ribs. Mr. Cobb's kitchen menu has wings, burgers, and Southern sides, but it's the ribs that are completely memorable, sticking Billy's firmly in your mind, teeth, and fingers. You can get a full meal of a quarter rack of ribs and fries for just $8.75. South Beach can keep its $18 cocktails — you'll have a better time up north, where the meat falls off the bone and the drink specials never expire.

Ball & Chain likes to tout its history — for good reason. The joint opened in 1935, after all, near the tail end of the Great Depression. For two decades, it reigned as one of Miami's most celebrated nightclubs, where greats like Billie Holiday and Chet Baker belted it out nightly. However, it closed in 1957 just as the Cuban immigrants who gave Little Havana its name began arriving in big numbers. It wasn't until last fall that partners Bill Fuller, Zack Bush, and Ben Bush decided to the revive the lounge. Except for the exposed ceiling and rafters, almost everything that was original to Ball & Chain was long gone. From that starting point, the owners painstakingly re-created the 1935 bar. The result isn't just a stunning reconnection to the city's past — it's a happening nightlife spot that's reintroducing the city at large to a neighborhood most people frequent only for the ethnic eats and cigars. Do yourself a favor and grab a spot at the bar to enjoy a mojito ($12) — one of the most authentic versions you'll find in Dade — or a Calle Ocho old-fashioned ($12) that uses tobacco bitters and actual tobacco leaves. Hungry? The Cuban spring roll ($8) takes the Cuban sandwich and wraps it inside a paper-thin dough. And though it's too late to see Holiday perform in person, Ball & Chain keeps the musical spirit alive with DJs, live bands, and singers all week.

This strip-mall space in Hialeah used to be called Our Place — until that dive bar got busted by the feds May 2, 2014, for drug dealing and illegal gambling. Now under new ownership, the bar has gone legit. Architect Landy Lamas and builder Mo Lacayo have given these formerly sleazy digs a major face-lift, a fresh booze list, and a new name, opening as the Bend Liquor Lounge in February 2015. "This was our local watering hole, our favorite dive, until it started going downhill," Lamas told New Times just after the fixed-up boozing spot began slinging drinks. "The bar was opened in the '70s but had been muddled up by shabby remodels. After stripping it down to its bones, we could appreciate its original spirit and decided to build on it. The '70s was a key time for the development of the area, and we thought of nothing more fitting for a quote-unquote local bar." As for the brand of intoxicants being peddled at the Bend, there's $2.50 beer (Miller High Life, Rolling Rock, Coors Banquet, Pabst Blue Ribbon), $6 local pints (Biscayne Bay Brewing, Wynwood Brewing, M.I.A. Brewing), and $8 classic cocktails too. But no more cocaine, weed, or molly. Sorry, old-timers.

'But it would be another reminder of how far the NHL's one-time darlings have fallen in less than two years. May made you remember when the Sabres missed the playoffs with dignity, when they went down swinging. This group reminded you of the Sabres at their worst, underachievers who often looked uninterested in a big game against a 12th-place team.'

Costa Rica's near-perfect weather is one of the country's greatest charms. Visitors marvel at its breezy sunshine and tropical mildness. Locals spend much of their time outside, where it rarely gets cold enough for even a light jacket. Schools often have large outdoor courtyards, and children spend their free moments in the fresh air. Government buildings, like the immigration office and the driver's license renewal office, usually have outdoor waiting areas.
Costa Rica's mild, pleasant climate is, of course, as ideal for vegetation as it is for outdoor activity. Plants thrive everywhere, without fertilization, watering or any kind of human attention. Fruit trees sprout on the spot where someone tossed a few seeds, and many of these trees have edible stems and seeds as well.
The combination of constant outdoor activity and edible vegetation creates an interesting phenomenon in Costa Rica—a sort of opportunistic outdoor snacking.
Schoolchildren all know the bounty to be found around their schoolyards. The older children teach the younger ones which fruits and leaves are edible and how to go about eating them. One particularly common schoolyard fruit is the manzana de agua. Loosely translated, this fruit is a "water apple," and the name is fairly accurate. The pale red fruit looks like an oval apple, and its flesh is like a watery version of the same. The fruit has only one seed, and it make for good between-class snacking. Another prevalent schoolyard fruit is the jocote. Shaped roughly like an olive, the jocote is greenish as it ripens and yellowish when fully ripe. Its flesh is thick and dense, and it clings to the fruit's one large seed. Jocotes vary in flavor from sour to sweet and are ideal eating during down time in a game of tag. When jocotes are out of season, their leaves make fine snacks as well. Chewy and very sour, one small branch of jocote leaves can last an entire recess. Clover, too, is slightly sour and particularly good during games that require crawling near that ground or under bushes, as clover grows close to the ground.
Adults in the out-of-doors often find as many snacks as schoolchildren do. Mango trees grow wild all across the country, and their fruit is good both ripe and unripe. People in line at various government agencies often eat mangos as they wait. Guayaba trees are also fairly common, and people at bus stops can often reach the pink, aromatic fruits as they stand on the sidewalk. A variety of citrus fruits, ranging from the sweet to the very tart, grow wild in the city and also make pleasant on-the-spot eating.
Although Costa Rica has become very modern during the last few years, it still retains vestiges of its old rural self. Like farm-dwellers of previous decades, Costa Ricans can—and do—harvest the fruits around them, gathering treats as they go about their daily activities.

A full evening of racing at the Bronson Motor Speedway on June 16 saw six winners in six different racing divisions. Wade Parker and Chip Owens put on some of the most impressive performances of the night, winning their respective races by nearly a lap apiece.
Race 1: In his first career win, Paul White of Eustis directed the No. 25 car to a win by less than a car length over Mark Lands in the pro challenge race. Running third at the start of the race, White flew past Lands and polesitter Kevyn Terry of Citra to take the lead.

ATTLEBORO, Mass. � School officials say as many as 25 students at a Massachusetts school were denied lunch this week because they either could not pay or their pre-paid accounts did not contain enough money.
Outraged parents say some students at Coelho Middle School in Attleboro cried when they were told by a worker they could not eat on Tuesday.
Superintendent Pia Durkin tells The Sun Chronicle that a worker for the contractor that provides lunch service at city schools has been suspended. She has also scheduled a meeting with officials at the company, Whitson's.
Meanwhile, workers have been told not to deny any child a meal.
Holly Von Seggern, vice president for marketing and community relations for Whitson's, says the company apologizes and is investigating.

VCSC Presence works with MOVI 4.2, but not 4.3. But it works with the VCSE
Good evening,
I have run into an issue with a VCSC. For some reason, Presence information doesnt seem to reach any MOVI client registered to the VCSC. The odd part of it is it is just specific to Jabber client 4.3 and greater. When I register the same client to the VCSE, it registers fine.
Has anyone else ran into this? I just blew away the majority of the config and rebuilt it, but the issue still remains.
Aside from just the presence information, all other calling works on the VCSC.
Any help to narrow this one down would be greatly appreciated.

What does Miley Cyrus have planned for the Billboard Music Awards?
Listen to Miley Cyrus on iHeartRadio
Miley Cyrus' musical comeback could be just around the corner. After months of teasing fans on Twitter, the star dropped a not-so-subtle hint about when her much-anticipated new music would be released.
She tweeted that fans should tune into this weekend's Billboard Music Awards because she "maybe" had a single up her sleeve.
I can't wait for this coming weekend =] @billboard— Miley Ray Cyrus (@MileyCyrus) May 13, 2013
Miley is not one of the previously confirmed performers set for the May 19th show, such as Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift, Bruno Mars and Jennifer Lopez. But it wouldn't be unheard of for Miley to drop news on Twitter before an official announcement. Last week, she prematurely announced that she had been named number one on "Maxim's" Hot 100 list, days before the the magazine revealed it.
The only new music to come from Miley so far this year has been her collaborations with Snoop Dogg on "Ashtrays and Heartbreaks" and with will.i.am on a track called "Fall Down." Her last album was 2010's Can't Be Tamed.

Hans has let us know that Kris died last night.She will be greatly missed by all of us,she was a great friend to all and always so very amusing and compassionate all in one package.We will all miss her greatly Janet
I woke up this morning to see this post and my heart is broken. I always thought that Kris's spirit reminded me so much of my son's spirit in their fight against this disease. I told her that on many occasions and she was very touched by that. Everyone -- and I mean EVERYONE -- will miss her greatly. I can't stop crying.....
Thanks for posting this. I too am so sad to hear this. She was always so positive in her approach to life. She will be greatly missed here by all of us.
Today is a very sad day for us all on the cc board.
Kris was a compassionate, caring and hugely supportive lady. I shall miss her words of wisdom greatly.
RIP Kris..... Thinking of Hans, her parents and family.
I first saw the news on facebook, and I must admit that I was completely shocked. I don't know why I was so shocked, but I was. Of course, it was obvious that Kris has been struggling a lot lately, but I just felt that she was gonna beat this. My heart is broken for her family. Kris and I were the same age, and I thought that was part of our connection, but after reading what everyone has to say about her, it is obvious we all had that connection with her because she was such a kind soul.
The Angel among us is gone from this earth but with us in spirit. She will be remembered in peoples' hearts.....
I will write the only thought in my head right now: that sucks. It is the same one that hit me with John Ur too. I guess because of their youth. I am sorry for Hans, but glad that the fight is over. Lord knows she gave it (and this board and everyone around her) her all.
Like someone else posted, it is news like this that makes coming to this board so difficult.
Walk - Thank you for putting my son John in the same category as Kris. They were similar in many ways -- both had a great sense of humor and compassion for others. It does suck -- these young people being taken from us from this horrid disease. I cried on and off since I heard the news about Kris. I relived everything from my end and I still am feeling down in the dumps. When will it end???? It does suck!!!!
I am so very sorry to hear about Kris. She was extremely supportive during my beloved Jim's illness. I thought she would live. I am crying for her but know that she is at peace.

text: That was by far his roughest game of the season. If that night was the worst night in his rookie career. Then I would say he has had a hell of a Rookie start so far. I seen many Rookie Corners get beat and abused. Not just one game, but over half a season. He got called for like what, 3-6 penalties for being to physical or over excited, and gave up 1 td. not so bad Hey it's going to happen, other Top corners like NA, get abused regularly. I've been impressed with MO so far. Once he get's his confidence to stick at an all time high consistently, he will be dangerous. Just like vs Atlanta, he got beat by Julio, and came back and battled. Almost had a potential game saving INT, if Roddy does not clearly PI him.

Stool C. difficile toxin
The stool C. difficile toxin test detects harmful substances produced by the bacterium Clostridium difficile (C. difficile) in a stool sample. This infection is a common cause of diarrhea after antibiotic use.
How the Test is Performed
A stool sample is needed. It is sent to a laboratory to be analyzed.There are several ways to detect C. difficile toxin in the stool sample.
Enzyme immunoassay (EIA) is most often used to detect substances produced by the bacteria. This test is faster than older tests, and simpler to perform. The results are available in about an hour. However, it is slightly less sensitive than previous methods. Several stool samples may be needed to get an accurate result.
How to Prepare for the Test
There are many ways to collect the samples. You can catch the stool on plastic wrap that is loosely placed over the toilet bowl and held in place by the toilet seat. Then you put the sample in a clean container. One test kit supplies a special toilet tissue that you use to collect the sample. After collecting the sample, you put it in a container.
Do not mix urine, water, or toilet tissue with the sample.
For children wearing diapers, you can line the diaper with plastic wrap. If the plastic wrap is positioned properly, it will prevent urine and stool from mixing to provide a better sample.
Why the Test is Performed
You may have this test if your health care provider thinksthat diarrhea is caused by recent antibiotic use. Antibiotics change the balance of bacteria in the colon. This sometimes leads to too much growth of C. difficile.
Diarrhea caused by C. difficile after antibiotic use often occurs in people in the hospital. It also can occur in people who have not recently taken antibiotics. See: Pseudomembranous colitis
Normal Results
No C. difficile toxin is detected.
Note: Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
What Abnormal Results Mean
Abnormal results mean that toxins produced byC. difficile are seen in the stool and are causing diarrhea.
There are no risks associated with testing for C. difficile toxin.
Since the test for C. difficile toxin is not 100% sensitive, several stool samples may be needed to detect it.

Physical fitness trumps body weight in reducing death risks
Margaret Lamb; email@example.com; 803-777-5400
You've heard it before, but there's even more compelling evidence to indicate that living longer can be linked to maintaining or improving your fitness levels – even if your weight stays the same or increases.
The findings are from a study, led by Drs. Duck-chul Lee and Steven N. Blair of the University of South Carolina Arnold School of Public Health and published in the December issue of "Circulation: Journal of the American Heart Association. "
This is good news for people who are physically active but can't seem to lose weight," said Lee, a physical activity epidemiologist in the Arnold School's Department of Exercise Science. "You may worry less about your weight as long as you continue to maintain or increase your fitness levels." In the study of 14,345 adult men, mostly white and middle or upper class, the researchers found that:
• Maintaining or improving fitness was associated with a lower death risk even after controlling for Body Mass Index (BMI) change.

NASA Builds an "Iron Man" Suit of Its Own

New motorized suit doubles as a workout machine
I'll admit: I'm a
little bit
augmented exosuits
, also known as exoskeletons. For those unfamiliar with exactly what that is, just think of Tony Stark's Iron Man suit and you'll get the picture.
I. NASA Joins "Iron Man" Race
Exoskeletons are rapidly advancing into the realm of reality, offering
both military
and medical applications
. But the best work likely lies ahead in this exciting emerging field.
The latest player on the exoskeleton scene is the
U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration
(NASA). Repurposing the kinematic advances of the
Robonaut 2 project
-- a humanoid like robot NASA was planning on sending on unmanned space missions -- NASA has
developed an exoskeleton
dubbed "X1" that doubles both as a load-bearing exosuit and a novel workout machine.
Co-designed by the
Florida Institute for Human and Machine Cognition
(IHMC) of Pensacola, FL (a multi-university non-profit research center) and
Oceaneering Space Systems
of Houston (a subsidiary of Oceaneering International, Inc. (
), a maritime contractor), the 57-pound suit is strapped onto the legs, with supporting traps worn over the shoulders, backpack-style.

The X1 is specially designed to deliver a rich array of movements for the wearer. It features 10 degrees of freedom and four motorized joints (the hips and knees), plus six passive joints (used for sidestepping, turning and pointing, and flexing a foot).
II. Multipurpose Suit Both Load Bears and Provides Resistance Training
In workout mode, the device reverses the standard exoskeleton equation, with the motors instead resisting movement to provide resistance training. This could be valuable to helping astronauts exercise and maintain muscle mass while in space, a place where large traditional exercise machines are problematic.
In standard assist mode, the X1 could be used on a Moon or Mars mission to assist the human space traveller in hoisting heavy boxes. Though NASA did not explicitly mention it, the system's electric storage could likely be recharged by solar power at the landing site.
NASA has a pretty neat video of the suit in action here (complete with fun electronic groove soundtrack):
NASA Space Technology Program chief Michael Gazarik comments, "What's extraordinary about space technology and our work with projects like Robonaut are the unexpected possibilities space tech spinoffs may have right here on Earth. It's exciting to see a NASA-developed technology that might one day help people with serious ambulatory needs begin to walk again, or even walk for the first time. That's the sort of return on investment NASA is proud to give back to America and the world."
III. Helping Paraplegics Walk
Back on Earth; NASA also has ambitious plans for the device -- namely, using it to assist paraplegics (those who suffer from paralysis below the waist). NASA and the IHMC have developed advanced assisted walking algorithms capable of navigating over "varied terrain". This could allow handicapped individuals to walk freely for the first time, even climbing up stairs like able-bodied folks.
IHMC director Ken Ford comments, "We greatly value our collaboration with NASA. The X1's high-performance capabilities will enable IHMC to continue performing cutting-edge research in mobility assistance while expanding into the field of rehabilitation."

Game Changing Development Program
funds the NASA exoskeleton work. The bad news is that this and other programs
could be at risk
if mandatory budget cuts kick in amid the partisan deadlock on the budget.
Hopefully, this novel program continues to receive the funding it deserves, stepping (with a bit of help) one step closer to helping the paralyzed walk and helping astronauts achieve superhuman load-bearing operations.

The bssids are there. Check your output again. The essids are blank, but the bssids are shown.
Regarding the high channel numbers, they are special licensed channels in the US (not sure about your area). I've seen them in my area and I find that they tended to be wireless traffic cameras.

SP28FPGYE2: C28FPGYE2 Dragonfly 2 Gray FRN Super Blue Sprint Run
C.Q.I. - Constant Quality Improvement is a process Spyderco uses to evaluate and refine longstanding established knife models. Sometime C.Q.I. changes are large and noticeable, sometimes they're smaller refinements. Recently we applied C.Q.I. to the classic Dragonfly creating a new Dragonfly 2. The Dragonfly 2 upgrades some notable features over the classic while keeping the important basics.
Features carrying-over to the new version are the tried and tested mid-sized blade and ergonomic handle along with a front-finger choil and spine cusp. Also staying int he blade-to-handle geometry and leveraging points which make the Dragonfly cut and feel like a much larger knife when in the hand.
The position of the enlarged Spyderco Round Opening Hole in relation to the pivot leads to smooth oepning and the FRN (fiberglass reinforce nylon) handle fits the hand ergonomically with a series of grip angles and leveraging spots.
Spyderco's Sprint Run Dragonfly 2 is made with Aogami Super Blue steel. Aogami Super Blue is produced exclusively by Hitachi Metals at their plant in the Shimane Prefecture, Japan. They use high quality iron-sand found only in this region to create different grades of steels including white steels and blue steels. The steel itself isn't blue or white in color but the designation refers instead to the color paper the raw steel comes wrapped in when delivered to Hitachi. In Japan its common practice for steels to be named and referred to; based on the color of the packaging the raw steel is delivered in. Super Blue is the highest grade blue steel and contains up to 1.5% carbon for wear resistance and chrome to elevate hardness and improve edge holding and corrosion resistance.
The gray fiberglass reinforced nylon handle features Spyderco's patented Bi-Directional Texturing for slip-free tactile traction. The knife locks up solidly with a mid-positioned back-lock and comes with the awesome wire pocket clip which is reversible for left or right hand tip up carry.
Sprint Runs
A Spyderco Sprint Run is defined as a limited edition production of any Spyderco product in a configuration different than what has been previously produced. It can include changes in the handle color, materials, blade steel, coatings, etc. 1200 piece Sprint Run.
- Blade Length: 2-5/16" (58 mm)
- Cutting Edge: 1-7/8" (48 mm)
- Blade Thickness: 3/32" (2.5 mm)
- Overall Length: 5-7/16" (138 mm)
- Closed Length: 3-7/32" (82 mm)
- Hole Diameter: 7/16" (11 mm)
- Blade Steel: Super Blue
- Weight: 1.2 oz. (33 g)
- Handle Material: Gray Fiberglass Reinforced Nylon (FRN)
- Made in Seki-City, Japan
The lockback system has been used for many decades. It can usually be found on the knife spine and it provides a strong lockup that will wear well.
Includes a pocket clip for easy accessibility and a more secure carry.
The exotic steel Capital of the World, Japan produces and innovates some of the best products, from pocket to kitchen knives and everything in between.
A nylon polymer that is lightweight and extremely durable, Zytel can be shaped and textured to provide excellent grip.

Everything was great except the pool was closed
Great complimentary breakfast. Nice good size room. Mattress was too firm.
Check in was easy and staff was friendly. Great location. Nice lobby. Bed was comfy. We've stayed here before with good success. This time, not so much. There was a leak in the room next door, so they were working on vacuuming the water. Our air conditioner didn't work.
At only $20 more then our traditional budget hotel stay this is quite a value! Spotless bathrooms, quiet and elegant feel throughout, super professional staff. We will be staying here again. Oh, and I love the central location.....close enough to the hustle and bustle of the south side of Springfield, but far enough away to enjoy the laid back pace of the north side. Can get to the zoo in 10 minutes, or Battlefield Mall in 10 minutes.....and Bass Pro is 5 minutes away! Can also walk to downtown (half mile walk, but flat nice sidewalks) restaurants too....and thats our style. Thanks guys!
Beds were comfortable and good location. Very outdated, including minor mold in the grout in the shower. Management is not great. They supposedly have a 24 hour grab-and-go snack area, but the food manager decided to "close it early" because of low traffic. I get you don't want to pay someone to sit there, so why not have the front desk (literally right next to it) cover it? Frustrating when you have a very hungry 8 year old at 10 pm (we had just arrived and everything else was closed).
Great environment and wonderful atmosphere with excellent service. I would highly recommend to anyone on business or just a get-away experience.
Nice lobby area. Employees are friendly. Bed is really comfortable. Close to where I wanted to go. Good price. Non-smoking room had been smoked in by previous guests and housekeeping attempted to disguise smoke smell with air freshener. Bleh.This happens at all hotels so no big deal. I could have asked to switch rooms but didn't bother.
When we tried to check in the front desk informed us that there were not any rooms available, even though I had already paid for one. We had to wait for a cab to take us to the "sister" hotel, a marriott near the airport which was 15 minutes away! Not happy!
Extremely Close to where we needed to be for the weekend. Lots to do in the area!! The Hot Tub was Shut Down...
The view of the ballpark.
Very friendly front desk clerk upon arrival at 8 pm on 06 13 2017 & the older gentlemen who managed breakfast on 06 14 2027 was awesome, but staff outside of those 2 weren't friendly or helpful. I was gone all day on 06 14 2017 and no one cleaned my room. I did inform the front desk. He just said 'I will let someone know.' No apology
Yes the neighbors next door to us noizy and pounded on the wall in the middle of the night.
I didn't know that you had to bring your own bath soap
This guest did not leave comments about this hotel.
The hotel was close to where I was going. I stay at this particular Holiday Inn Express often. Always a friendly staff. Always neat and clean
Overall was very clean and nice. No
This guest did not leave comments about this hotel.
the staff was very nice! And helpful The bed was not as comfortable as I would have liked. Would have liked to have a pillow top. I would not let that stop me from staying at this hotel again.
The cleanliness, the staff and the best breakfast experience we have ever had in a hotel No
Maid didn't leave towels for the next day, didn't take out the trash, cups of coffee were still in room when returned.
