Under former six-year NFL veteran Derrick Lewis, Lake Area employed pro-style offensive concepts on the field, capping the 2014 season at 4-4.
It served as a primer. This year, the Fighting Leopards move into District 9-4A — with the likes of Warren Easton and Karr — in their first full season of eligibility.
Despite their program's inexperience, Lake Area is armed with returning starting quarterback Ricky Jones, another year of familiarity with the offense and potential to be competitive.
Wednesday at Hoss Memtsas, the Fighting Leopards showcased their growth in the system, scoring on three of their first four offensive possessions against Thomas Jefferson and Sci Academy in the spring game.
"My style of offense is a lot more efficient. It's a lot more potent. It's a lot faster than what you saw from them," Lewis said.
"But it's a process. We're working on executing basic plays. Our offense looks complicated, but it's actually very simple, so we're working on the basic plays, simple route combinations, route depth, efficiency in the passing game and footwork."
It's coming together.
Jones, who compiled 3,000-plus total yards and 26 touchdowns, opened the scrimmage with a 55-yard TD to Cyron Sutton.
Later he connected with on a 26-yard touchdown strike for the fourth score.
Sandwiched between the pair were touchdowns of 70 and 67 yards — passes Bryce Kensey completed to Antoine Adams and Ellis McGee.
"The biggest challenge I faced last year and what I'm addressing this season is reading defenses," Jones said. "I'm learning more. I'm learning the differences between Cover 2 and Cover 3, where the blitz is coming from, those types of things."
Though Sci Academy and Thomas Jefferson moved the chains via substantial gains on the ground and passing, neither managed a touchdown or a trip into the red zone.
Jaguars coach Kevin Kelly attributed the lack of execution to injuries and inexperience, as Thomas Jefferson graduated three all-district linemen and quarterback Tyler Lavergne.
"Our best player is out," Kelly said. "(Quarterback) Tyler Butler couldn't play because he pulled his hamstring. It took away our bread and butter. During spring practice, we're working on our offensive line. We have some inexperience there, but the defense is picking up right where they left off. They're the strength of our team with eight or nine starters back."
The Jaguars defense sacked the quarterback four times while disrupting the line of scrimmage — something Kelly anticipates will continue in the fall.
"(Tyler) can throw. He'll have to because everyone knows he can run, but he'll make some plays for us. He's our Tim Tebow."

Auto enthusiasts know that a reliable name is built into each BMW, and understand that only the highest quality repair 135is parts will suffice when maintenance needs to be done. The vehicle in your driveway is head and shoulders above the rest compared to all the other vehicles these days. You picked your 135is because its a reputation for performance and European styling struck a chord inside you; so why would you settle for anything but the best when it comes to great quality auto parts? BMW automobile drivers have become used to a certain level of sporty handling when driving their 135is around town.
Your BMW 135is uses liquid coolant to maintain a constant temperature in the engine, and if there were a heart in that motor it would be the water pump. It rotates in-sync with the crankshaft via a belt that connects pulleys on each part. Along with the thermostat, coolant hoses, and radiator core, your BMW 135is water pump reliably injects and spreads the water and ethylene glycol mixture through the engine; keeping operating temperatures down below the boiling point. If it fails, then coolant will boil and your engine will be ruined.
Buying new BMW parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are getting the best deal on the highest quality original and aftermarket replacement 135is parts on the internet. When your BMW requires a new replacement Water Pump, there's no need to go somewhere besides the authority, Car Parts Discount. At Car Parts Discount, we have live customer service members available with enough expertise to help you purchase the appropriate BMW 135is part for your needs. When it comes to BMW 135is Water Pump parts, you can find them for 2013 models by clicking the appropriate year below.

If you want to do your baby a favor...then yes..wash before use!!
Very important!!! YOU really have to wash all baby clothing..not just the newborns. Sounds tough in beginning, but it;s only for the best of your baby.
They have such sensitive skin in the beginning. Support their healthy development wherever you can and that includes the skin.
If you think about it...
Where did you get the clothing? How many people before you have touched it? How long have it hang there on the rack? (Dust danger!) Could it have may even lay on the floor several times? And more..
All those things you don't know. So just imagine, if it's your clothing..would you wash it before use?!
If you wanna do your LO a favor and be safe...wash them. (Sometimes you can even see on their tags written..wash before use).
Better safe than skin problems for your lil ones. Because once they have skin problems the treatments later one are more expensive than the baby detergent! ;)

Convergence of body mass with aging: The longitudinal interrelationship of health, weight, and survival
There has been ongoing debate about the health risks associated with increased body weight among the elderly population. One issue has not been investigated thoroughly is that body weight changes over time, as both the reasons and results of, the development of chronic diseases and functional disabilities. Structural models have the ability to unravel the complicated simultaneous relationship between body weight, disability, and mortality along the aging process. Using longitudinal data from the Medicare Current Beneficiary Survey from 1992 to 2001, we constructed a structural model to estimate the longitudinal dynamic relationship between weight, chronic diseases, functional status, and mortality among the aging population. A simulation of an age cohort from 65 to 100 was conducted to show the changes in weight and health outcomes among the cohorts with different baseline weight based on the parameters estimated by the model. The elderly with normal weight at age 65 experience higher life expectancy and lower disability rates than the same age cohorts in other weight categories. The interesting prediction of our model is that the average body size of an elderly cohort will converge to the normal weight range through a process of survival, senescence, and behavioral adjustment.

My last two visits to NOLA were very 'impromptu' and on extremely busy weekends. I can be a kamikaze-type traveler and don't spend much time in a hotel anyway so I tend NOT to want to spend $400/night at a place (unless it's a special occasion).
Note: I have stayed here MORE THAN ONCE. Incidentally, I am a single female traveler and not unattractive.
The first time I stayed my usual place was booked and I stayed at my cab driver's suggestion. If you have your own car, it works. It's a bit too far out of the quarter for me, though. I just took cabs & last time rode a rental bike.
Last time I flew in for the marathon. Knowing my schedule was full while there, I thought I'd give it another shot.
Yes, the area is quite sketchy. Yes, the long-term tenants may be shady. Cleanliness indeed...is a different standard, but seriously for this price do you expect the Ritz? The staff was helpful when they were around, and told me that they positioned my room so I'd be close to the office so they could keep an eye out.. The day of the marathon I had to leave quite early for the start and was willing to pay for an extra day just because I couldn't cart my luggage out that morning for obvious reasons. I ended up calling in the afternoon because the office was unmanned when I had to leave to let them know. I guess the Asian woman had limited understanding of my plans -- when I returned after my day (and afterparty) they'd packed all of my belongings for me. My belongings were waiting in the office; I had nothing missing. I think this says quite a bit of the staff - I had items that would be tempting to steal. I just called another hotel and got into a much nicer place in a more convenient location (on Sundays, vacancies can be in abundance)
If you're in a pinch for lodging and just need a place to sleep a few hours, this works. It's far from fancy, and any savvy traveler knows they need to be careful ANYWHERE. The staff is very nice but unfortunately the hotel is in a bad area and caters to a certain 'clientele' (tranny prostitutes). If you're timid and can't handle yourself, don't deal with it.
I don't think I'll stay here in the future, but one never knows. I was there when 98% of the hotels were booked. I do know that several cab drivers who were natives warned me of the area, so I may heed.
All in all, this is a bargain place. It does come with some faults. Bring your own blanket & towel. The large rooms come with a frig and microwave, but the rooms could use new carpet, new bedding, new towels....I've stayed at some super nice places in NOLA and the standards of cleanliness even there have not on my level, and this Capri is definitely NOT super nice, but I am a realist.
If the owners put in some cash to fix the problems, things might be better. I don't know that they could fix their regular clientele, though. Can't really discriminate against people because they may be poor, and can't really butt into their personal lives...right?
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- Closed due to damage from Hurricane Katrina. ... more less
- Also Known As:
- Capri Hotel New Orleans

Exodus: Redemption from Bondage (5 of 54) by Stan Coffey
AUTHORSHIP: Throughout the Bible, the first five books of the law are viewed as a unit offered by Moses. (Mark 12:26; Luke 2:22-24; John 7:19-23). Furthermore, Exodus specifically names Moses as the author. (Exodus 17:14; Exodus 24:3-4; Exodus 34:27).

Most of the books of the Bible have one great overriding,dominant thing. For instance, the book of Genesis is the book about creation. The same is true about the book of Exodus. It has a dominating theme. Genesis is the book of creation -- Exodus is the book of redemption. In Genesis we learn how man became a sinner. In Exodus we learn how... ( Read More )
Christ in All of Exodus (11 of 37) by John Barnett
We are in a journey toward what I call A Strategic Grasp of the Bible. The first lesson was Seven reasons why I believe God's Word! Next we found that Jesus gives a seven-mile Bible study to those on the road to Emmaus. Note what He said THEY (the entire Old Testament) SPEAK (every book, every chapter, even every detail) OF ME (the Bible is Christ... ( Read More )
Exodus: What Is God up To? (3 of 10) by Roger Thomas
Introduction: Exodus, the second book of the Bible, is one of the most important. Without understanding the main events of this book, you cannot understand much of what follows, including much of what happens in the New Testament. In a sense, Exodus marks the beginning of the Bible story proper. Genesis is like an introduction or preface. The first... ( Read More )
The Ministry of Moses by Johnny Hunt
Introduction: When someone decides to be a leader, they cross an important line; a major transition: change! They no longer are judged only by what they can do themselves. Their value now depends mainly on what they can get done through others and with others; exhortation with emulation. If the body of Christ is likened unto an army, I must learn to... ( Read More )
The Curse of Compromise by Ernest Easley
Now join me in the OT book of Exodus. You will recall that God called the Jews out of the land of Egypt and into the Promised Land. It was a literal event .. yet .. it has a symbolic message. For instance: "Egypt" represents the land of bondage and sin. "Pharaoh" is a picture of Satan. The "Israelites" coming out of Egypt represents us .. or when we are born again... ( Read More )
Blessings and Battles by Ken Trivette
We all love the blessings. We like it when God is pouring out His blessings on us. We all enjoy the times when God is working in our life and His power and presence are being manifested. Yet there is something we all need to understand about the times of blessings. Our blessings are always followed by battles. The smile of God is always followed by the...( Read More )
Temptation to Serve Other Gods (4 of 4) by Dennis Marquardt
INTRO: We often think how primitive it was for people in the Old Testament to worship idols made of wood and stone. Those idols were nothing more than empty images made in man's own imagination and mind. In this sense it was the reversal of Biblical truth that God made man in His image; but sinful man makes a god in his own image! It is hard to believe... ( Read More )

Honor Your Parents by Ed Young
Once upon a time there was a little old man. This little man was compeled to live with his son and his son's wife and their family. He would blink a lot. He trembled involuntarily.

Voyeur : June 2010
VIRGINBLUE I enter my apartment to find a jolly painting of magpies on the wall and a bottle of d'Arenberg's The Laughing Magpie Shiraz Viognier for me to enjoy. I've managed to cover only three cellar doors so far and I'm starting to think I'd need a year, not just a long weekend, to do the region justice. DAY 2: ADELAIDE HILLS 09:15 The trees lining the roads are ablaze with autumn colours on my 45-minute drive north-east to the Adelaide Hills, one of the country's premium cool-climate wine regions, where chardonnay, pinot noir and sauvignon blanc reign supreme. 10:00 An old water wheel still gently turns outside the cellar door at Petaluma's Bridgewater Mill restaurant. I kick off the day with a glass of 2007 Croser sparkling, which is one of my favourite bubblies. Petaluma's chardonnay is also great and its gewür ztr aminer is a revelation with its musk aroma and peach notes. 11:00 I've been promised a sublime ChocoVino experience at Hahndorf Hill Winery and it lives up to the claim. Sauvignon blanc, chardonnay and shiraz are seamlessly matched with chocolate by owners Larry Jacobs and Marc Dobson, who have sourced more than 40 chocolates from around the world to match with their fine wines. My favourite is the lemon and ginger dark Belgian chocolate that brings out the chardonnay's exquisite citrus notes. 12:00 An enthusiastic Ben Tolstoshev welcomes me to The Lane Vineyard, one of the country's most sophisticated wineries, which is owned by his mother and stepfather, Helen and John Edwards. They use an infr a-red scanner to assess ever y gr ape to ensure its quality. I linger longer than I had planned as Tolstoshev wants me to tr y the oysters in their award- winning restaurant. They go beautifully with the crisp, zesty Gathering Sauvignon Blanc Semillon, but it's the subtly oaked chardonnay that takes my fancy. Tolstoshev reckons it's one of John's favourites too: "He says it's the duck's guts." I'm finding it difficult to tear myself away from this gorgeous spot, especially when Tolstoshev's enthusiasm is so infectious. 15:00 Now I really have to pick up the pace. After a quick lunch at Bistro 25 in Hahndorf I call into Nepenthe's cellar door, which is in an idyllic spot surrounded by stately gums. 082 Clockwise from top left: Imbibe the serenity at Bridgewater Mill; The chocolate and wine are fine at Hahndorf Hill; Feel at home at classy Lane Vineyard. Opposite, from left: Stock up on local wines at Glen Ewin Estate; Receive a royal reception at Cimicky Wines.

The general appearance of the beef cattle is touch better than it was at the last two or three markets. Beef cattle sold about 1/2c. lb. below last week's rates, on all grades of animals except extra cattle, which, owing to the short supply, sold about the same as before. Prices were as follows: Extra bullocks, 24c.@25c. lb., estimated not weight; good, 21c.@22c. lb.; medium, 17c.@19c. lb.; common to poor, 17c.@12c. lb. Veal calves and milch cows sell at former rates.

Arkansas has carried out its first execution since 2005 – the first of eight which the state had originally planned to carry out by lethal injection over a period of 11 days.
Ledell Lee was pronounced dead at 11.56pm local time on Thursday, four minutes before his death warrant was due to expire.
Last-minute appeals seeking to conduct DNA testing in an attempt to prove his innocence were rejected less than an hour before his death.
The execution process took two minutes, during which Lee lay covered with a sheet, with his arms extended and his head and hands covered with leather straps.
He made no final statement and is reported to have shown no apparent signs of suffering during the execution.
A spokesman for Arkansas governor Asa Hutchinson, who scheduled the multiple executions, said: "Justice was carried out."
The 51-year-old was put on death row for the 1993 murder of his neighbour Debra Reese, who Lee struck 36 times with a wheel wrench her husband gave her for protection.
He was arrested less than half-an-hour after she was killed, spending money he had stolen from her. He always claimed his innocence.
Arkansas officials have been trying to push through the run of executions because the state's supply of midazolam expires at the end of April and the chances of getting a substitute are slim.
However, last-minute court challenges have derailed three other executions scheduled for this week.
An earlier order halting the use of vercuronium bromide – one of the three drugs used in the state's lethal injection process – was overturned by the court.
Drug company McKesson Medical Surgical Inc said the drug had been sold to the state for medical purposes, not capital punishment.
The makers of the other two drugs being used in the process – midazolam and potassium chloride – were blocked from intervening in the case.
Two more inmates are set to die on Monday, and one on 27 April. Another inmate scheduled for execution next week has received a stay.
Arkansas dropped plans to execute a second inmate, Stacey Johnson, on the same day. He will now be seeking more DNA tests in the hope of proving his innocence.
The death penalty was reinstated in America in 1976.

Markets Cheer Turning World's Last Tree into Cash
NEW YORK — (TYDN) Stocks skyrocketed Friday when the Federal Reserve announced it had secured the rights to the world's last living tree, enabling the Fed a final opportunity to print more cash to give to banking executives, TheYellowDailyNews has learned.
Stocks had fluctuated wildly during the trading day until the Fed said it had agreed to give $1 million to an elderly Sonoma, Calif., woman in exchange for the rights to log a giant sequoia from her yard -- the world's last standing tree. Following the global financial collapse, world governments, including the United States, have gobbled up the world's timber resources to process it into cash to dole out to financial executives.
When the closing bell rang, advancing stocks outpaced losing issues by a 4-to-1 margin.
In after-hours trading, however, stocks began to lose ground when environmentalists sued, alleging the 300-foot, 200-year-old tree likely could not be logged until an environmental impact study was conducted to determine the impact on the Spotted Owl and spawning salmon.
Economists said it was the first time in the nation's history that the last standing tree was cut to stimulate the economy, according to exclusive interviews with TheYellowDailyNews. Many of these economists suggested that stocks are likely to plunge when the market realizes no more cash can be printed.
"There's a looming danger that the market is in for a correction once it comes to grips that there are no more resources available to bail it out," Havard economist Frank Pine said in an exclusive interview with TheYellowDailyNews.
The dwindling of worldwide monetary supplies has kept up pressure for timber resources, according to an analysis by TheYellowDailyNews. The most recent disappearance of cash was announced when Jon Corzine, the former chief executive of MF Global, told Congress that the brokerage and derivative-trading company had lost $1.2 billion in client funds.
"I simply do not know where the money is, or why the accounts have not been reconciled to date," Corzine testified.
Sources close to the tree cutting, speaking on condition of anonymity to TheYellowDailyNews because of the sensitivity of the topic, said the White House was scratching its head over which trickle-down theory it would employ when it transforms the giant sequoia into pulp and ultimately into cash currency.
The discord concerns two schools of trickle-down economics.
Some Obama administration officials believe the best course of action to keep the economy rolling was to shower banking executives with cash to fund their vacation homes, Learjets and extra-marital affairs. Other officials with direct knowledge of the debate, however, are recommending that the cash be distributed to politicians, who could stimulate the economy through vote buying.
At least one well-placed Obama administration official, who requested anonymity and was granted anonymity by TheYellowDailyNews, said the administration would likely broker a compromise and adopt both methods.

MNS` agitation proves non-violent tactics work: NCP
NCP on Thursday said the MNS`s yesterday`s agitation against the toll levy proved that protests through non-violent means and dialogue can make a difference.
Mumbai: NCP on Thursday said the MNS`s yesterday`s agitation against the toll levy proved that protests through non-violent means and dialogue can make a difference. It also welcomed the proposed move of the Maharashtra government to review levy of toll on BOT projects costing upto Rs 10 crore.
NCP spokesman Nawab Malik said here that the decision would lead to stoppage of toll levy at 25 toll places.
"Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan told MNS president Raj Thackeray at a meeting, which was attended by PWD minister Chhagan Bhujbal and public undertakings minister Jaidutt Kshirsagar, that toll levy at BOT (built-operate-transfer) projects which are worth less than Rs 10 crore will reviewed," Malik said.
He also rejected the criticism that MNS`s agitation was stage-managed with the help of Congress-NCP. "Shiv Sena is making this allegation, but in fact the Chief Minister has a closer rapport with Sena chief and his PA, who is often found in the Chief Minister`s office," said Malik.
He said the NCP also demanded that toll collection at two-lane highways/ bridges/ roads be stopped.
The NCP spokesperson also said that the agitation will not make any difference to Raj Thackeray`s poll prospects as the issue concerned about 3 to 4 per cent of the electorate.
"Farmers, labourers and the common man at large who use public transport are not charged the toll. Toll is levied only on private and commercial vehicles," he said.
Malik also said that scrapping of toll collection at large projects is not possible, and BJP should first make Gujarat toll-free, and Maharashtra would be happy to follow the suit.

Our unique feeder features patented Top Fill technology so that filling is never a hassle. Simply remove the lid and pour 24 oz of nectar into the wide mouth top to get your feeder up and running.

Review RateDisappointed with this one
Some type of design flaw, I'm guessing. Great reviews in 2014 and 2015, but in 2016 the reviews started to come in with complaints of leaking. I had the same experience: after washing, filling, and hanging, within two minutes a fast drip had started; within 15 minutes, the feeder was empty. I thought perhaps I hadn't screwed things on tightly enough, so I tried again with the same result 2 more times. Oh well! Customer service was great and they're sending a new one, so we'll see what happens! Still the only feeders I want to buy!Response From Perky-Pet®Patty : Consumer Relations Representative
Hello Chris,
We apologize for this experience and are glad to know we were able to provide a replacement feeder. Feel free to contact our Consumer Relations Team at 1-855-PERKYPET (1-855-737-5973) with any additional questions.
Review Ratesticky mess,, leaking !
just bought one of the humming bird feeders very pretty, top and bottom.. but I am now covered with sticky sweet from the feeder leaking ...what a mess never had this trouble with old kind,,Response From Perky-Pet®Lauren : Consumer Relations Representative

Review RateSyrup leaks out when tilted
Although I like being able to load from the top, this design is flawed in that when the feeder is tilted, such as when the wind blows, the liquid leaks out of the space between the upper and lower halves of the base. We don't know why this is an issue now. The feeder seemed to work fine last summer. Maybe it was leaking then but we just didn't realize it. Now the syrup leaks out every time. We have replaced it with a new, less expensive, old-fashioned kind.Response From Perky-Pet®Patty : Consumer Relations Representative
We apologize for this experience and appreciate the feedback.
The vacuum inside a hummingbird feeder prevents the nectar from leaking. When the feeder is tilted, the vacuum seal is broken. We recommend placing all hummingbird feeders in an area of little to no wind.
Please give our Consumer Relations Team a call at 1-855-PERKYPET (1-855-737-5973) with any additional questions.
Review Rateextremely convenient
The convenience of a top loading feeder is outstanding.
Review RateWorks great
This is the second one I have bought. Love the top fill, and the hummers are using it. I have had no problems with mine.
Review RateGreat feeder it looks good, there is a flawI bought two of these about a week ago. I like you fill it from the top. twice the top has come off letting the glass fall to the ground. since it was over the grass it didn't break . I made sure it was not over tighten. I made a fix using small chain. it is easy to fill with out taking the feeder down. I have include pic'sResponse From Perky-Pet®Patty : Consumer Relations RepresentativeThank you for providing this detailed feedback. It will be shared with our Product Manager. We apologize for this experience. The lid should thread firmly and securely onto the bottle.

Review RateEasy to cleantwo weeks old and i love how easy it is to clean but the hummers prefer my old perky pet feeder. i bought two new ones and replaced one old style which i hung in the back yard were I seldom see hummers. Now most hummers go to the old one or the thirty oz one i also purchased . They don't care for the white flowers on the 24oz one. They are using it but prefer theones with yellow flowers.
I love perky pet because they are made here and are of the finest quality at reasonable prices. Thank you perky-pet
Review RateAbsolute waste!!I bought this a couple weeks ago at a local store. I have never had a glass feeder because of the risk of breaking. Unfortunately, I didn't have many options- it seems glass is the popular thing right now. The plastic lid apparently couldn't hold the rest of the feeder. The lid was the only part still hanging when I woke up the very next morning after I first put it up. Somehow it didn't break, so I tried again. This time, I even taped the lid onto the glass bulb with 4 pieces of tape. Again, I found the lid hanging alone the next morning. This time, there was glass shattered all over my porch, garden, front yard, in planters. There were thousands of ants on my porch. I even cut my finger in the process of trying to clean the glass out of the planters. I will never buy another glass feeder again! This thing didn't even last a full week! To say I'm "disappointed" wouldn't even come close! I also doubt the local store will accept a shattered bag of glass as a return! This was a complete waste of money & time & even a waste of over 4 cups of hummingbird food.Response From Perky-Pet®Patty : Consumer Relations RepresentativeWe apologize for this experience and would like the opportunity to learn more. The lid should be able to thread on smoothly and tightly with the feeder. Our feeders are covered by a one year replacement warranty. Please contact our Consumer Relations Team at 1-855-PERKYPET (1-855-737-5973) for additional assistance.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: This is my first Top Fill Hummingbird feeder, what are some good tips to filling and cleaning my new feeder?
A: Follow the steps on the chart for best filling and cleaning tips.
Q: I typically get a lot of ants around my hummingbird feeders, what can I do to prevent them from getting to the nectar?
A: No worries, with this top fill feeder - it has a built in ant moat right in the lid of the feeder. After filling your feeder and hanging, simply pour a small amount of water in the top of the lid.
Q: What criteria should I use when selecting a hummingbird feeder?
A: Make sure it is one that will be easy to clean and fill, especially since you will need to clean the feeder every few days. If you are worried about bees and wasps or ants invading the feeder, purchase a hummingbird feeder with bee guards, such as the Perky-Pet® model #203CP or ant guards, Perky-Pet® model #242.
Q: How do I clean my hummingbird feeders?
A: Hummingbird feeders need to be cleaned every 1-2 weeks. Use hot water and a bottle brush, along with mild soap; be sure to rinse thoroughly. The Perky-Pet® cleaning mop is specifically designed for the purpose of cleaning hummingbird feeders, and is very convenient to use. This cleaning mop can also be used on seed feeders and oriole feeders for those small, tight spaces that are difficult to reach.
Q: What is the importance of providing water for hummingbirds?
A. Hummingbirds need fresh, clean water just as much as they need nectar. Hummingbirds stay healthy by using water not just for drinking, but also bathing, cleaning their feathers and to remove parasites. Waterers are better options than bird baths because they provide hummingbirds with fresh, clean water that prevents dirt and debris from contaminating it. In hotter climates or seasons, providing water for hummingbirds makes it easy for them to have access to a water source and retain their energy.

By Marcos Ambrose, special for USA TODAY
Editor's note: NASCAR driver Marcos Ambrose will document his season in the Sprint Cup Series in an exclusive online diary for USA TODAY:
This week at Darlington Raceway may have looked bad on paper, but in this sport you always have to keep your head up and look forward. It was a tough weekend for us, but we were able to make the best of it.
We were having a pretty decent day with practice on Friday, up until the point where I hit the fence. We only had a few minutes remaining in final practice. We were forced to go to a backup car. The JTG-Daugherty Racing team worked really hard to prepare the backup car for qualifying and the race.
As we went out for qualifying, we surprised many, including myself, when we turned one of the fastest laps we had run all weekend. Our lap was good enough to place the No.47 Kingsford Charcoal Toyota seventh on the starting grid.
The race was an even bigger testament to our team's work ethic. We struggled during the race with the car starting off super tight. Then after some adjustments we were on the total opposite end of the spectrum and we got really loose. The car was just not handling right no matter what we did to it. In addition, we experienced a bit of a motor problem (had to change spark plug wires) during the race, but thanks to my team's hard work we were able to salvage a 25th-place finish from what could have been a disaster.
This week we are traveling to Dover International Speedway, which is nicknamed "The Monster Mile" and there's a reason for that. Things just happen so fast there. Dover is just an extremely fast track. We're banking on having a good run and delivering a solid finish for our sponsors. Dover really reminds me of a supersized Bristol. With our ability to run well every time at Bristol, I hope the results will be similar. But, at the same time, you just never know in this sport.
I am really looking forward to this weekend because we have two new partners on board for the Dover race, which are The Great Atlantic and Pacific Tea Co. (A&P) and the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA). Our JTG Daugherty Racing's No. 47 Toyota Camry will carry A&P and MDA on the hood in addition to having some familiar sponsors as associates including Scott, Bush's Baked Beans, Little Debbie, Kingsford and Clorox on board for the 12th race of the 2010 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season. A&P has been a big supporter of MDA for nearly a quarter of a century. This week I am really looking forward to helping A&P with their efforts in raising awareness about MDA, which continues their dedication to cure muscular dystrophy and related diseases by funding worldwide research since 1950.
With Dover lurking in the midst and Darlington just behind us, we still have tons of activities coming up this May. This month is definitely going to be one of my busiest of the year. You would think with the All-Star race and the Coca-Cola 600 being back-to- back races in Charlotte, I would be able to relax at my home. However, it is the very opposite.
Just yesterday we had a road course test at Virginia International Raceway that will help us prepare for road course races at Infineon Raceway and Watkins Glen International. We were so close to winning one of those last year, I want to make sure this year we do everything exactly right so we can bring home a trophy for my sponsors and JTG Daugherty Racing.
Wednesday, I have an unveiling for a new sponsor in the sport, Cavalia. Cavalia explains their show as a lavish multimedia, equestrian extravaganza featuring 62 majestic horses and 40 artists, including acrobats, aerialists, riders, musicians and dancers boasting the world's largest touring White Big Top. Right now, they are in Charlotte.
I took my wife, Sonja, and daughters Adelaide and Tabitha to see the show on Mother's Day. Everyone knows how hard it is to keep a 4-year-old and 2-year-old sitting still and focused, but they did. They were absolutely mesmerized by the horses and the terrific acrobatic stunts. It was a great family event that my wife and I absolutely enjoyed.
I cannot wait until my family gets to see the sleek black car with horses on it for the All-Star Race weekend. If I am not voted in the All-Star Race, hopefully the extra horsepower on the hood will help me race my way into the event.
Next week, I will be visiting Lance Snacks at their Ballantyne (N.C.) Headquarters on May 18th. We are going to be selling NASCAR Day Pins to employees and have a putting contest to win Lance Racing Caps on the green in front of the building. It is great to get the sponsors fired up and supportive of the race team before our racing events because it gets me pumped up to run well for them on race day.
Two days later on the 20th, I have an ESPN Arts and Crafts shoot at the Concord Regional Airport. Those shoots are always fun and something I enjoy doing. Then that night I am attending the NASCAR Hall of Fame dinner. I think the NASCAR Hall of Fame located in Charlotte is great for the fans and the sport. All major sports have one; don't you think it was NASCAR's time? I certainly think that NASCAR was due for a Hall of Fame.
As I mentioned earlier about the All-Star Race, there are only a few weeks left for me to be voted into the race or I will have to race my way in. I want to thank all the fans that have already voted for me and continue to do so. I really want to get a chance to showcase my skills on the big stage in front of all you fans. I think as of right now I am in the top 10 in voting. So, please keep it up!
In between the All-Star Race and Coca-Cola 600 if any fans are in the area, JTG-Daugherty Racing will be participating in fan day at Raceworld (20310 Chartwell Center Drive) on May 26th and I'm signing autographs from 6 to 7 p.m. at the Cornelius, N.C., shop alongside Michael Waltrip's drivers. This is a great event I look forward to participating in each year. It allows me to interact with fans, something I love doing. Who knows? Maybe I'll make a fan or two that help get me voted into the All-Star Race.
