About Us
We Love WordPress, that's the truth.
Where do we start with an about us story?
We have worked with WordPress since Version Duke and built our 1st website using exclusively WordPress with Version Ella. We have never looked back and always uses WordPress as our CMS of choice.
In 2011, after an accident, our co-founder was told he was 60% disabled for life and would never return to work, he decided that wasn't him and if he couldn't find a job that works around his disability then he would create one and in February 2012 Webhosting 4 Business was born.
We set out with the idea of creating a server environment specifically designed to give WordPress sites a huge speed advantage and work with the CMS system not against it. We did not design a WordPress Hosted solution, we designed a cPanel server solution that kept all the benefits of your own VPS while allowing you to build virtually any WordPress site you could imagine while still maintaining full control over your ideas and decisions. Not us telling you what you can and cannot do on your server. (subject to our Google Rules of course*)
Then in January of 2016 we designed and created WP Support Services to accommodate the growth in our own Business but also in the world of WordPress as both a CMS system and it's incredible achievement of now running a 1/4 of all Websites in the world.
We our Proud to Launch our new WordPress Support Service on the 15th of March 2016.
WP Support Services.
We run your Website, so You can enjoy running your Business.
It has all been said.

By Rebecca Moore email@example.com | September 11, 2012 Page 1 of 3 View Full Article In 2011, 33% of all Vanguard participants were invested in a professionally managed allocation program: 24% in a single target-date fund (TDF); 6% in a single traditional balanced fund; and 3% in a managed account advisory program. The total number is up from 9% at the end of 2005. These options dramatically improve portfolio diversification for many participants, helping to reduce the risks associated with either having too much in equities (which could expose a participant to considerable market volatility) or too little (reducing the long-term return potential of a retirement portfolio). For instance, in 2011, a total 18% of participants took an extreme position in equities, holding either 100% in equities (10% of participants) or no equities (8%). In contrast, a total of 34% of participants held extreme equity positions in 2005. Fueling much of the growth of these programs is the soaring adoption of target-date funds (TDFs). Eighty-two percent of plan sponsors offered target-date funds in 2011, up from 28% in 2005. Forty-seven percent of all participants use TDFs. While the growth of these funds is frequently attributed to their designation as the investment default in automatic enrollment plans, many participants are voluntarily choosing TDFs. In plans with voluntary enrollment, 48% of participants are invested in TDFs. Vanguard believes the surge of TDF usage will continue to influence the adoption of professionally managed allocations. "Largely because of the growing use of target-date options, we anticipate that 55% of all participants and 80% of new plan entrants will be entirely invested in a professionally managed allocation by 2016," said Jean Young, chief author of "How America Saves."

ESPN's Colin Cowherd: I'd Trade Peyton Manning, Because His Arm Is Cooked

Photo by Brandon Marshall
There's no off-season in the NFL anymore.
As evidence, note that arguably the biggest sports story in America yesterday was about something that didn't happen — a trade of Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning to the Houston Texans.
Among those weighing in on this hypothetical was ESPN radio host and TV personality Colin Cowherd, who said on yesterday's broadcast that while the Broncos didn't deal Peyton to Houston (and deny that such a course of action was ever seriously considered), they should have.
Indeed, Cowherd maintained that if another team offered a number 1 draft pick and a Pro Ball-caliber player — particularly a left guard — in exchange for Manning's services, he would take the deal in a minute, since Manning's arm is "cooked."
The whole brouhaha was launched by a pair of tweets on Tuesday by Benjamin Allbright of Mile High Sports. Here's the first....
...and here's the second:
This story wasn't new. As Allbright acknowledged in a subsequent tweet, Matt "Money" Smith discussed it in an NFL.com podcast three weeks earlier.
But for whatever reason, Allbright's tweets were the ones that stuck.
And as the tale circulated, Cowherd went into one of his trademark rants on the topic.
At the outset, Cowherd set up a classic straw man situation, declaring that certain elements of the leadership structure didn't want him talking about the report.
Instead of zipping his lips, though, he was going to "report" that Peyton Manning was finished as an elite quarterback.
Cowherd dismissed the idea that Manning's quad injury last year was the reason for his poor performance during the final part of the season and the Broncos' humiliating playoffs defeat to the Indianapolis Colts.
Rather, he argued that Manning's arm simply isn't what it used to be and he's completely ineffective by the time the cold weather starts to roll in.
According to Cowherd, a number of knowledgeable sources confirmed to him longstanding whispers that Manning has difficulty gripping the ball in chilly weather — and even if he could, he tended to wear down as the season grinds on.
As such, Cowherd declared definitively that Manning isn't a top-five quarterback by the time the games really count and the Broncos can't possibly win a Super Bowl with him.
Oh yeah: He also said that the story had been broken by some "local radio meatball" — or at least I'm pretty sure that's what he said. Allbright heard it differently.

Meatball, meathead or whatever, Cowherd's assertion that higher-ups at ESPN wanted to quash the Manning story (because so many people at the network worship the ground on which he walks) proved to be utterly false.
Note that the Manning report was the lead item on yesterday's episode of Pardon the Interruption, featuring substitute co-hosts Dan Le Batard and Jason Whitlock.
During the conversation, Le Batard speculated that the Broncos had used the possibility of a Manning trade to Houston as leverage to force him to take a pay cut — something he agreed to earlier this year.
In contrast, Whitlock argued that legitimate trade discussions may actually have taken place, since Manning is accustomed to playing for defensive-minded head coaches like Tony Dungy and John Fox who allow him to run the offense his way pretty much unencumbered, but new boss Gary Kubiak prefers the sort of roll outs and behind-the-O-line movement that isn't a part of Peyton's game.

Whatever the case, Manning is the man for the Broncos again this season — and if anyone doubted his motivation for the 2015-2016 season, they needn't do so any longer. You can bet he'll bust his ass to prove the Cowherds of the world wrong.
Thanks, Colin.

Pfizer Inc. (NYSE:PFE) is set to report FQ4 2013 earnings before the market opens on Tuesday, January 28th. Pfizer is an American pharmaceutical/biotech company and is one of the world's largest pharmaceutical companies by revenue. Some of Pfizer's most well known drugs include Lipitor, Viagra, Celebrex, and Zithromax. Much of Pfizer's success has come from its large scale research and development effort aimed at finding new treatments for various diseases.
In December Amy Shulman shocked investors by announcing her abrupt departure from the company. Shulman was a top executive and the head of the global healthcare business. She seemed to be a rising star at Pfizer and has been included on the Fortune Most Powerful Women list. There is a great deal of uncertainty surrounding the events leading to Ms. Shulman's departure, and analysts also seem to be divided about how well Pfizer will perform this quarter.
The information below is derived from data submitted to the Estimize.com platform by a set of Buy Side and Independent analyst contributors.
The current Wall Street consensus expectation is for Pfizer to report 53c EPS and $13.363B revenue, while the current Estimize.com consensus from 11 Buy Side and Independent contributing analysts is 53c EPS and $13.487B revenue. This quarter the buy-side as represented by the Estimize.com community is expecting Pfizer report inline with Wall Street on profit and beat slightly on revenue.
The magnitude of the difference between the Wall Street and Estimize consensus numbers often identifies opportunities to take advantage of expectations that may not have been priced into the market. In this case we are seeing a very small differential between the 2 groups' forecasts.
Over the previous 6 quarters the consensus from Estimize.com was more accurate in forecasting Pfizer's profit 4 times and was more accurate in predicting revenue twice. By tapping into a wider range of contributors including hedge-fund analysts, asset managers, independent research shops, students, and non professional investors Estimize has created a data set that is up to 69.5% more accurate than Wall Street, but more importantly it does a better job of representing the market's actual expectations. It has been confirmed by an independent academic study from Rice University that stock prices tend to react with a more strongly associated degree to the expectation benchmark from Estimize than from the Wall Street consensus.
The distribution of estimates published by analysts on Estimize range from 51c to 57c EPS and $13.059B to $15.000B in revenues. This quarter we're seeing a larger distribution of estimates compared to previous quarters.
The size of the distribution of estimates relative to previous quarters often signals whether or not the market is confident that it has priced in the expected earnings already. A larger distribution of estimates signaling less agreement in the market, which could mean greater volatility post earnings. Analysts are more divided than usual this quarter in forecasting how well Pfizer will perform.
The Wall Street EPS consensus dipped throughout the quarter from a starting point of 54c to 53c. The Wall Street revenue consensus also inched lower throughout the quarter from $13.385B to $13.363B. The Estimize EPS consensus dropped from 54c to 53c while the Estimize revenue consensus plunged up from $13.901B to $13.487B. Timeliness is correlated with accuracy and at the very end of the quarter we saw a sharp downward revision in the Estimize revenue consensus.
The analyst with the highest estimate confidence rating this quarter is THammers who projects 54c EPS and $13.400B in revenue. In the Winter 2014 season, THammers is currently ranked as the 3rd best analyst and is ranked 15st overall among over 3,500 contributing analysts. Estimate confidence ratings are calculated through algorithms developed by deep quantitative research which looks at correlations between analyst track records and tendencies as they relate to future accuracy. In this case the highest rated estimate is forecasting Pfizer to beat both Wall Street and Estimize on profit but report between the two groups on revenue.
This quarter we have seen a wider distribution of Estimates for Pfizer than previous quarters as investors are divided in opinion about how strong the company's earnings will be. The aggregate consensus from the Estimize platform is that Pfizer will report inline on EPS but come up beat the Street by a small margin on revenue.

ATLANTA (AP) — Zoo officials say a 6-year-old eastern black rhinoceros at Atlanta's zoo is pregnant.
Zoo Atlanta said in a statement that Andazi has entered her birth window, which began Tuesday and runs through late November. Zoo officials say it's most likely she'll give birth in August or September.
The baby will be the first of its species ever born at Atlanta's zoo. Andazi weights more than 2,400 pounds. Officials say her calf will likely weigh between 55 and 90 pounds and will be born without horns.
The calf's father is Andazi's 8-year-old mate Utenzi.
Eastern black rhinos are critically endangered in the wild because of poaching for their horns and other body parts, which are believed to have healing properties in some cultures

Volunteer background screening – in one form or another – has become standard practice for the majority of volunteer programs throughout the country.
The act of volunteering is a noteworthy deed – and one that should be selfless. Volunteers entail the true spirit of commitment to helping those less fortunate. Although we would like to trust all potential volunteers, not all of them come to us with good intentions or clean criminal histories. That's why organizations that are simply "checking the box" and running low cost, instant database checks – often known as nationwide or multistate database checks – run the risk of putting their organization, volunteers and reputation on the line.
These checks are of inferior quality, out of date and incomplete. Additionally, these checks are likely missing key criminal history information – a scary thought when considering all that's at stake.
Did you know? Even if you're running the highest quality criminal background checks available, there is still a gap in your volunteer screening program. Why does it exist and what is it? Potentially, your volunteer could be submitting someone else's name and/or social security number in order to run their background check.
It's shocking to learn that even if you're running the most robust check you can – screening at the county or state courthouse, performing regular renewal screens and the like – you can still be leaving your organization open to exposure.
If you're in the group not running high quality, comprehensive checks – you should and need to be. These checks:
They include the NSOPW sex offender search – the only complete, 50-state sex offender search out there. And, depending on volunteer role, they include other products like motor vehicle record checks (MVRs), credit checks, and reference checks.
If you're in the group running high quality, comprehensive checks and additional checks and searches, good for you. It's great that the trend is swinging in the right direction. The more checks you run, the safer your organization, your volunteers, and your constituents, right? Well...almost.
The underlying question now becomes "If the criminal history that comes back does not belong to the volunteer who walks through your door, what good is it"? Unfortunately, the answer is not good at all!
You need to go beyond the volunteer background check to validate the identification of each volunteer.
Fortunately, there are products that can be incorporated into your volunteer screening program to help you fill in the gap. They're called identity validation products and they do a few things.
Not only is this an exciting technology but it's a huge step in volunteer background screening. If combined with a robust criminal background check, it can help you run a safer and more secure volunteer program that reduces risk and liability in the event something should go wrong.
Join us for a free 30 minute webinar on May 5, 2016 at 2PM ET/11AM PT. Katie Zwetzig (Executive Director of Verified Volunteers) and Christine Sbatella (Vice President, Product Management & Global Operations at Verified Volunteers) will present Volunteer Background Screening: What Are You Missing?

Security Deposits: FAQ
In most states, a landlord has the option of requiring a security deposit. Most landlords choose to require a security deposit in order to help ensure that the tenant takes care of the rental property and complies with the terms of the agreement. Generally, a security deposit must be refundable and the terms should be specified in writing to determine on what conditions the tenant will receive the deposit back. In most states, the landlord can make deductions from the security deposit for certain damages to the property or for unapid rent. State law varies on the kinds of deductions that can be made to the property (but generally does not include normal "wear and tear") and the number of days in which the security deposit must be refunded and/or an itemized statement of deductions be provided to the tenant.
Can my landlord keep my entire security deposit?
A security deposit is a deposit the landlord collects. After a tenant moves out, the landlord can apply the deposit to:
- Unpaid rent owed
- Cost to clean the unit
- Cost to repair or replace items damaged by the tenant beyond normal wear and tear
- Cost to store the tenant's belongings
Many states set limits on how many months in rent or security deposit the landlord can demand. The landlord may, however, require deposit up to the mandated limits.
In general, once the tenant vacates the property, the landlord has 21 to 30 days to send the tenant a refund of the deposit minus any amount lawfully applied to back rent, damages to the premises, or costs for cleaning and storage.
The landlord must:
- Provide an itemized list describing all deductions
- Send the refund to the tenant's last known address or to an address the tenant provides before or shortly after moving out. It is the tenant's responsibility to provide a valid address. If the landlord's attempts to send the refund to the address of record fail, he or she may lawfully be allowed to keep the refund after a certain period of time.
Can My Landlord Keep a Portion of My Security Deposit For "Wear and Tear?"?
A landlord normally may not withhold all or part of the deposit for the replacement or repair of items within the unit due to "normal wear and tear." There is no precise definition for what constitutes "normal wear and tear," but it generally means the simple wearing down of an item as a result of the normal use or aging of the item. One way the amount of "normal wear and tear" is commonly calculated is by determining the "useful life" of the item.
For example if a particular type of carpeting is installed at the beginning of a rental and it generally has to be replaced every 10 years at a cost of $1000, but due to heavy wear or damage the carpeting has to be replaced after only 8 years, then the landlord may not charge the tenant the entire $1000 to replace the carpet. Rather, the landlord would probably be able to charge the tenant only $200 - for the two years worth of life that would have been left on the carpet under "normal wear and tear" conditions.
What is normal wear and tear?
The standard most state laws apply in determining when a landlord can lawfully use the security deposit to deduct the repair costs of tenant caused damage, is based on the damages exceeding those commonly accrued through everyday use.
The standard is subjective, however, so often a landlord and tenant may disagree on what damages should be deducted from the security deposit. If state law requires that the landlord provide an itemized list of deductions, the tenant can refer to this list for specifications about the damages.
A landlord's failure to comply with the law can result in the landlord having to pay the tenant triple damages, penalties, interest and attorney fees.
What States Do Not Require A Landlord To Return A Tenant's Security Deposit Within A Set Period Of Time?
Neither Tennessee nor West Virginia have a law that requires a landlord to return a tenant's security deposit within a set time period.

Putin and Erdogan "positive" talked for 45 minutes
Lasted for 45 minutes of conversation between the two presidents — Russia and Turkey — was their first contact since November of 2015, when the Turkish air force shot down a Russian fighter on the border with Syria.
photo: Natalia Gubernatorova
Earlier, the press Secretary of the President Dmitry Peskov said that the conversation was held on the initiative of Vladimir Putin: it happened after the letter sent to him by Recep Tayyip Erdogan, but to the terrorist attack at the airport of Istanbul.
Read the chronicle of the attack.
The Kremlin did not disclose the content of the conversation between the two politicians, however sources Reuters in the environment of the Erdogan assured that the conversation went "very productive and positive."
In addition, in the near future it is expected a written statement that the parties must publish the results of the conversation.
We will remind that Moscow and Ankara have diverged in quotations of the letter of Erdogan. So, Peskov said that it had apologized for the downed plane, while official Ankara said that it is about "regrets". On the website of the Kremlin also changed the English translation of the letter the Turkish leader: "the formula refers to the recognition of intentional infliction of guilt was replaced by determination of the attack on the plane as inadvertent error.

It's amazing what some people can do with a few squiggly lines. This mid-century Modernist Taxco pin does just that...turns a few pieces of inlaid silver-on-silver into the graceful figure of an archer as he's pulling back his arrow.
The pin is signed on the back...marked STERLING - FJM - TAXCO 925. It measures 1 5/8 inches across by just over 2 inches high. It weighs 15.5 grams. The back has a secure rollover clasp. The flowing curved figure is carried through in the curve of the pin itself. Even the shape of the pin is free-form.
We don't polish vintage silver because the aged patina looks so nice. This vintage pin is well-designed and right on the bullseye if you like old Mexican Taxco artistry... and archery.

Understanding Cloud Computing and Windows Azure
Cloud computing is the delivery of computing as a service rather than a product. It is completely based on the Internet. Cloud Computing provides on-demand hardware (like Server), storage resources, services hosting and services management environment, and other devices as a utility or resource over a network, rather than having your local servers or personal devices to handle manage your services and applications.
A Cloud is just a combination of hardware (computer, other devices), networks, storage, services, and interfaces that helps in delivering computing as a service. It has mainly three users - end user, business management user, and cloud service provider.
The end user uses the services provided by the cloud. The business management user takes care of the data and the services provided by the cloud. The cloud service provider is responsible for the maintenance of the IT assets of the cloud.
Cloud Service
A cloud service allows you to build cloud applications without installing it on the computer. It reduces the maintenance and support of the application as compared to the applications which are not developed by using the cloud service. The different kinds of users can use the application from the cloud service.
Windows Azure
Windows Azure is an open and flexible cloud platform that serves as the development, data storing, service hosting and service management environment. Windows Azure provides developers with on-demand compute and storage to host, scale, and manage web applications on the internet through Microsoft datacenters.
Advantage of Windows Azure
There are following advantages of Windows Azure-
Reduce the effort and costs of IT management.
Reduce costs of building and extending on-premises resources.
Respond quickly to changes in your business and customer needs.
Choose an on-premises or off-premises deployment model that best suits your needs.
Scale your IT resources up and down based on your needs.
Consume computing resources ONLY when the needs arise.
Remove the need to manage hardware.
Use your existing development skills to build cloud applications.
Consistent development and management experience across on-premises and the cloud.
What do you think?
I hope you will enjoy the tips while working with Windows Azure. I would like to have feedback from my blog readers. Your valuable feedback, question, or comments about this article are always welcome.

Justin Bieber Is Still Trying to Hit On Selena Gomez
Though recent reports suggest that the saga that is Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez's romance has come to an end, the former party is making it seem as if he's not ready to move on again. As what emotionally-confused exes sometimes do, Bieber has taken upon himself to creep his former flame online — but with 14.5 million followers watching his every move.
Posting photos of ex-girlfriend Gomez at Sunday night's Vanity Fair Oscars after-party on his Instagram, the "All That Matters" singer writes, "Most elegant princess in the world."
The former couple, who broke up last year, made first their red carpet debut together at the same party in 2011. Hey, maybe Bieber was just feeling a little sentimental last night?

NEW YORK (AP) Serena Williams walked toward the line judge, screaming, cursing and shaking a ball in the official's direction, threatening to "shove it down" her throat.
On match point in the U.S. Open semifinals Saturday night, defending champion Williams was penalized a point for unsportsmanlike conduct — a bizarre, ugly finish that gave a 6-4, 7-5 upset victory to unseeded, unranked Kim Clijsters.
The match featured plenty of powerful groundstrokes and lengthy exchanges. No one will remember a single shot that was struck, though, because of the unusual, dramatic way it ended.
MEN'S QUARTERFINALS: Nadal eases past Gonzalez
With Williams serving at 5-6, 15-30 in the second set, she faulted on her first serve. On the second serve, a line judge called a foot fault, making it a double-fault — a call rarely, if ever, seen at that stage of any match, let alone the semifinals of a Grand Slam tournament.
That made the score 15-40, putting Clijsters one point from victory.
Instead of stepping to the baseline to serve again, Williams went over and shouted and cursed at the line judge, pointing at her and thrusting the ball toward her.
"If I could, I would take this ... ball and shove it down your ... throat," Williams said.
She continued yelling at the line judge, and went back over, shaking her racket in the official's direction.
Asked in her postmatch news conference what she said to the line judge, Williams wouldn't say, replying, "What did I say? You didn't hear?"
"I've never been in a fight in my whole life, so I don't know why she would have felt threatened," Williams said with a smile.
The line judge went over to the chair umpire, and tournament referee Brian Earley joined in the conversation. With the crowd booing — making part of the dialogue inaudible — Williams then went over and said to the line judge: "Sorry, but there are a lot of people who've said way worse." Then the line judge said something to the chair umpire, and Williams responded, "I didn't say I would kill you. Are you serious? I didn't say that." The line judge replied by shaking her head and saying, "Yes."
Williams already had been give a code violation warning when she broke her racket after losing the first set. So the chair umpire now awarded a penalty point to Clijsters, ending the match.
"She was called for a foot fault, and a point later, she said something to a line umpire, and it was reported to the chair, and that resulted in a point penalty," Earley explained. "And it just happened that point penalty was match point. It was a code violation for unsportsmanlike conduct."
When the ruling was announced, Williams walked around the net to the other end of the court to shake hands with a stunned Clijsters, who did not appear to understand what had happened.
"I used to have a real temper, and I've gotten a lot better," Williams said later. "So I know you don't believe me, but I used to be worse. Yes, yes, indeed."
Tournament spokesman Chris Widmaier said Sunday that officials were watching tapes of what happened. The tournament referee, Brian Earley, interviewed Williams and the match's chair umpire before they left the grounds Saturday.
Lost in the theatrics was Clijsters' significant accomplishment: In only her third tournament back after 2½ years in retirement, the 26-year-old Belgian became the first mother to reach a Grand Slam final since Evonne Goolagong Cawley won Wimbledon 1980.
"The normal feelings of winning a match weren't quite there," Clijsters said. "But I think afterwards, when everything kind of sunk in a little bit and got explained to me about what happened, yeah, you kind of have to put it all in place, and then it becomes a little bit easier to understand and to kind of not celebrate, but at least have a little bit of joy after a match like that."
Clijsters hadn't competed at the U.S. Open since winning the 2005 championship. Now she will play for her second career major title Sunday against No. 9 Caroline Wozniacki of Denmark, who beat Yanina Wickmayer of Belgium 6-3, 6-3 in the other rain-delayed women's semifinal.
Wozniacki advanced to her first Grand Slam final using her speed and steady play to overcome an early break in the final set.
"It's a dream come true to play the finals of a Grand Slam, and now I'm here," a beaming Wozniacki said. "So I mean, I have absolutely nothing to lose."
Wozniacki, a native of Odense, Denmark, covered her mouth after Wickmayer's forehand landed wide on the final point, and nearly broke down as she approached the net. She won the final four games of the match as Wickmayer struggled with her groundstrokes.
Williams came into the day having won three of the past four Grand Slam titles, and 30 of her previous 31 matches at major tournaments.
She was playing fantastically at the U.S. Open, not losing a set before Saturday and having lost her serve a total of three times through five matches.
But Clijsters — who beat Williams' older sister, No. 3 Venus, in the fourth round — was superb, matching strokes and strides with as strong and swift a woman as the game has to offer.
Williams, meanwhile, kept making mistakes, and two backhand errors plus a double-fault contributed to a break at love that put Clijsters ahead 4-2.
When Williams netted backhands on consecutive points at 5-4, Clijsters had broken her for the second time and taken the opening set. The last backhand was the 14th unforced error made by Williams to that point — twice as many as Clijsters — and the American bounced her racket, caught it, then cracked it against the blue court, mangling the frame.
When Williams walked to the changeover, she clanged it against the net post and was given a warning for racket abuse by the chair umpire.
That would prove pivotal about an hour later, at match's end.
"I mean, the timing is unfortunate, you know," Clijsters said. "To get a point penalty at the time, it's unfortunate. But there are rules, and you know, like I said, it's just unfortunate that it has to happen on a match point."
Men's quarterfinals
Third-seeded Rafael Nadal took advantage of an embarrassing collapse by No. 11 Fernando Gonzalez on the men's side Saturday to put away his quarterfinal, 7-6 (7-4), 7-6 (7-2), 6-0.
"I can't tell you, because I don't have the answer," Gonzalez said when asked to explain his quick disintegration.
Next up for Nadal is a semifinal Sunday against No. 6 Juan Martin del Potro. The other men's semifinal pits No. 4 Novak Djokovic against No. 1 Roger Federer, who is seeking his sixth straight U.S. Open title.
Though Nadal's sore abdominals are still a concern, he certainly wasn't overtaxed in this match, as he headed into what could be a very long weekend.
"I'm OK," Nadal said. "I have only a little bit of a problem in the abdominal. That's it."
A match that had been a taut, well-played affair got postponed Thursday night with Nadal leading 3-2 in the second-set tiebreaker. They had to wait out an entire day of rain before coming back to the court to resume under overcast skies and temperatures in the 60s.
This was not more of the same.
Gonzalez opened the tiebreaker by spraying three forehands out, then pounded Nadal's serve into the net on set point. He lost two more points to start the third set before finally getting on the board. But after dropping the first game, the Chilean, back in the Open quarterfinals for the first time since 2002, chucked his racket toward his chair en route to the changeover.
"When you come back in one situation like today, anything can happen, because it's a little bit of a lottery depending on the first two points," Nadal said. "The important thing is to be ready to accept everything, and try to arrive there knowing what to do."
Nadal did. Gonzalez didn't.
And it kept getting worse for Gonzalez. Even a medical timeout to have tape cut off his ankles couldn't stop this slide.
Final numbers: 59 unforced errors for Gonzalez to 13 for Nadal; Nadal won 31 of the 43 points played after the restart. The whole affair took 34 minutes to wrap up.
"Normally if you lose the first two sets, I mean, you already have passed like one hour, two hours on court," Gonzalez said. "Today it was like three minutes, so..."
But shortly after the Nadal match, the rain started again and delayed the men's doubles final that was to precede the women on Ashe. Tournament officials are hoping to wrap things up with the men's final Monday, though even that wasn't a guarantee, as the rain delay pushed into its third hour Saturday afternoon.
The weather and the easy match were all a welcome respite for Nadal, who has been dealing with the sore stomach muscles throughout this tournament.
"It was important to have one day off to recover a little better," he said. "Today, I feel well."
One indication of how he's really feeling might have come earlier in the day, when he withdrew from Spain's Davis Cup semifinal this month.
Next comes his match against Del Potro with a trip to the final on the line. Nadal, who needs the U.S. Open to complete a career Grand Slam, leads the head-to-head series 4-2. But del Potro, the 6-foot-6 Argentine, has won the last two meetings, both outdoors on hard court this year.
"He's good. I think he's a complete player, and it's always the same thing," Nadal said. "Try to be ready to put one more ball (back) than the rest."

Box Score | Photo Gallery | Video Highlights | Twitter | Facebook | Instagram
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. - The Virginia men's soccer team opened its 2013 NCAA Tournament with a 2-0 second-round victory over St. John's Sunday afternoon in frigid, blustery conditions at Klöckner Stadium. Seeded eighth in the tournament, the Cavaliers (11-5-5) advance to the round of 16 to ninth-seeded Marquette, which downed Akron 1-0 in overtime Sunday evening in Milwaukee.
"This time of year, winning is the most important thing," Virginia head coach George Gelnovatch said. "I would say today was a professional performance. That first goal and how we managed the game and played together were all great. It was very methodical and professional. They had a bad taste in their mouths (after the ACC championship game). I didn't have to say anything all week. From the start, they wanted to get another game and it showed today."
Virginia made its 33rd-consecutive NCAA tournament appearance - the longest current streak in Division I soccer. The Cavaliers advanced to the second weekend of tournament play for the first time since winning the 2009 national championship.
The Cavaliers scored both of their goals off set pieces - a first-half goal from Ryan Zinkhan (Jr., Fredericksburg, Va.) and a second-half score from Eric Bird (Jr., Virginia Beach, Va.). Bird recorded a goal and an assist in the win.
St. John's (11-7-2) out-shot Virginia, 9-8, and put four shots on goal to three for the Cavaliers. UVa took five corner kicks to one for the Red Storm.
UVa goalkeeper Calle Brown (R-Jr., Leesburg, Va.) saved all four of the Red Storm's shots on goal in recording the Cavaliers' 10th clean sheet of the season. Rafael Diaz made one save in goal for St. John's.
Virginia put on a beautiful passing display to score first in the 35th minute. Patrick Foss (Fr., South Riding, Va.) sent a free kick into the box and found Bird, who headed the ball back into the six-yard box to Zinkhan, who headed into the upper left corner for his fourth goal of the year.
The Cavaliers struck again in the 64th minute. Scott Thomsen (So., Brick, N.Y.) lofted a corner kick across the box toward the far post, where Bird went up in traffic and headed it past Diaz for the goal. It was Bird's team-leading seventh score of the season. St. John's had allowed just one goal in its previous five matches.
Tickets for the third-round contest with Marquette are $9 for reserved seats, $7 for adult general admission and $5 for youth/student/senior citizen general admission. Fans can order tickets online at VirginiaSports.com and by phone through the Virginia Athletics Ticket Office at 800-542-UVA1 (8821) or 434-924-UVA1 (8821). Tickets are also available at the Klöckner Stadium box office beginning at noon on game day. Gates will open at noon.
Junior Midfielder Ryan Zinkhan on momentum of scoring first goal
"One of the things we talked about in the locker room was to come out in the first five minutes and we come out and send a message. We wanted to start on our front foot and I think we did that pretty well today."
Junior midfielder Eric Bird on importance of second goal
"It was huge. We didn't want to let them back into the game. We wanted to come out flying like we did in the first half and we got a second one and put the game to rest. It was off of a corner kick. Scott hit a great ball and I just had to knock it in."
Ryan Zinkhan on responding after the loss to Maryland.
"I think all week in practice, we kind of had a bad taste in our mouths. We wanted that next game because we got it stolen from us in the ACC Championship. We wanted to come back out and go after another trophy."
Bird on importance of going to the Sweet Sixteen for the first time since 2009
"It is huge. Knowing what they did in 2009, it is huge for the program. We are really looking forward to it."
George Gelnovatch opening statement
"This time of year, winning is the most important thing. I would say today was a professional performance. That first goal and how we managed the game and played together were all great. It was very methodical and professional. Ryan was right when he said they had a bad taste in their mouths. I didn't have to say anything all week. From the start, they wanted to get another game and it showed to day."
What is the effect of the first goal in NCAA games?
"Since 2010, when St. John's has scored first, they have only lost one game. I didn't even tell my team that. That is a powerful statistic. Today, that goal meant a lot for us. I also think when a team is on the road and we were playing like we were, it is psychological. It beats you down a little bit. I think when they came here earlier in the year, it was similar. I think the second goal was what really got them down."
Gelnovatch on how much the weather played a factor.
"Not too much. On the kicking, it made it a little bit harder. I thought that Calle's kicks in the first half were very good, opposed to their keeper when he went against the win. His kicks were barely making it out of their half. We chose to go against the win first so we wouldn't have to defend against the wind in the second half as much."
Gelnovatch on importance of winning in regulation
"I think we played nine overtime games. I think that has prepared us for good games. We have played games like this all year long. We have played good games in and out of conference. We knew what to expect."
Gelnovatch on calmness of Calle Brown
"I think part of it is that he is an older guy. I think that has had an effect on him. Ever since he started against Boston College, he has been steady. I think he is completely comfortable, and it shows."
On Scott Thomsen coming in the game today
"I thought Patrick Foss was fine today. I just think at half he looked a little tired and lethargic. When you have a guy like Scott, we felt like putting him would put some freshness into the game. I think he added a lot."
St. John's coach Dr. Dave Masur statement
"Virginia is a very good team. We have been down here twice and have lost both times. They have a young, talented, athletic, and very well coached team. We knew it was going to be a tough match and we gave away a couple of crosses that turned into goals. I'm disappointed about that, but give credit to Virginia, who could keep the pressure on us, especially in the first half."
Masur on importance of the first goal
"The first goal is always important. We have done fairly well when scoring first. I think it was important, but the second goal was even bigger. When carrying a one goal lead, it is hard to keep pressure up, so that second goal made it a bigger uphill climb."
Masur on success in the attacking third of the field
"I'm not sure we had a ton of success in the attacking third today. We didn't get too many clean looks. We had nine shots. After conceding the second goal, we pushed forward and had more options of attacking on the field. That allowed us to get a couple of good chances. We had some great chances on shots from outside."
Masur on differences in play from Virginia compared to the last meeting
"I'm not sure there were too many differences. Their team has found its shape and understands how to play. In the beginning of the season, we all try to figure out what will work for the season. I imagine that Virginia has found the group to get them going. I thought they were very strong and focused and difficult to break down. We didn't have many good chances in the first half."
