After nearly three months of consumers voting for their best Mountain Dew line extension, DEWmocracy pulled their four flavor offerings on June 9th. This allowed them to tabulate the votes, and also tease Mountain Dew enthusiasts a little longer. On June 28th, the beverage brand uploaded a picture to their facebook page indicating that Super Nova has been eliminated with the least votes. White Out was subsequently eliminated on July 2nd with the second least votes and/or consumer purchases. On Thursday July 4th 2013, Mountain Dew announced that Voltage had beat out Code Red, winning the first DEWmocracy Canada. Starting July 15th (today), Voltage will return to stores in both 355ml (12oz) and 591ml (20oz) formats. Given its success, will this lead to Voltage staying as a permanent extension? Or will Mountain Dew position Voltage as a limited time product, and stop-ship after a few months. If they opt for the latter, they will have the opportunity to re-energize the Dew portfolio next year with DEWmocracy Canada 2014. There are benefits and inhibitors toward both options, and here's a quick perspective on each option. Why would you prefer?
Should Voltage become a permanently shelved product, consumers will undoubtedly be satisfied. After all, Voltage was determined to be the most appropriate flavor not just by social media votes, but also through product sales. Consumers essentially opened their wallets to vote for Voltage and therefore expect to be rewarded with its extended availability. From a retailer perspective, staying power for Voltage could translate to better grocery sales. Given that customers purchased Mountain Dew at their establishment – and likely as part of a larger grocery shopping trip – they will be more inclined to return for other grocery trips. And if shopping at that retailer is already part of the routine shopping trip, product availability becomes even more crucial since this means larger grocery receipts and profitability. In the end, this builds better customer satisfaction and loyalty. However, the downside becomes that if Voltage was simply a fad and consumers become uninterested with the product, sales will decline and may ultimately lead to it being discontinued.
Should Voltage only exist as a limited-time offering, consumers will derive short term satisfaction. In the longer term, this may create a cult following for Voltage should it return for DEWmocracy 2014. Similar to other limited-time offerings like Pepsi Throwback and Mountain Dew Throwback, beverage enthusiasts will continually be on the lookout for when Voltage's return to Canadian shelves. And in the meantime they will travel south of the border to purchase this product in unfathomable quantities. Grocery retailers will recognize the short term gains of this flavor and be more than likely to support such a marketing campaign from Pepsi in the future. During the life expectancy of Voltage this year, they will be open to increasing its shelf space and in-store visibility. However, constantly adjusting regular shelf sets to incorporate new products may be time-consuming and ultimately lead to the product being stocked randomly wherever space permits. This may in turn lead to significantly lower sales even after it returns to store shelves.
From an end user and grocery retailer perspective, both options translates positive results. What about for Pepsi?
Whether it is temporary or permanent, Voltage provides Pepsi with another beverage option to satisfy thirsty consumers. However, only Pepsi truly knows how much of these thirst quenchers' dollars are truly incremental – meaning that they did not come at the expense of other Pepsi products the end consumer would have bought anyway. The financial and time investments behind DEWmocracy Canada has been substantial from a marketing standpoint, and there is likely a positive carry-over affect onto other Pepsi products. If Voltage is a limited-time offering, the investment and message for the summer may focus more on "get it while you can" to ensure a strong return on investment. If Voltage becomes a standard offering, the message may be "your vote, your new favorite beverage" to drive equity, product positioning, and long term sales.
Whatever the case, Voltage has won Canada's first DEWmocracy and will be around for the summertime. For votes rooting for Code Red, Super Nova or White Out, facebook comments indicate that these flavors are still available – but who knows for how long? Now that Canadians have a taste of DEWmocracy, how often and how much will they reward Mountain Dew with their future purchases?

Why checkpoints are essential. A jihadi is captured at an Israeli Check Point with 6 bombs
Posted by avideditor on January 31, 2010
People calling on Israel to remove its check points is naive or want the jihadis to kill the Jews.
From Hologer Awakens
Just in case anyone is thinking that all is peaceful and calm in Israel…this little ditty came in today where a Pali jihadist decided to try and attack Israelis with six pipe bombs.
Imagine if this terrorist had made it through the roadblock or if there had been no roadblock.
As usual, Israeli security forces were all over this scumbag but it's just another reminder that every minute of every hour of every day, Israel is at war with islamic terror. Think about that a moment, Average Joe American…..think about the furor and chaos in America that occurred when a Nigerian islamist tried to blow up one of our planes on Christmas Day and then consider just what it must be like to face that each and every day of the year.
6 Bombs Found at Roadblock East of Shchem
(IsraelNN.com) Six pipe-bombs were discovered in the possession of an Arab man at an IDF roadblock east of Shchem in Israel's northern Samaria region. IDF sappers destroyed the bombs and security forces apprehended the suspected terrorist who is currently undergoing interrogation.

HyunA's letter to Cube Entertainment revealed after her departure from the label
Jun Ko, Oct. 16, 2018, 11:40 a.m.
HyunA's letter to Cube Entertainment was released by Korean news media Hyundae News on October 15th. The letter was revealed, following her departure from the label and provides insight into her situation while she was still a part of the label:
"To: CEO Shin Dae Nam
As you probably know, I have done nothing to Cube Entertainment, other than giving my very best for the company.
First of all, when I departed JYP Entertainment, I was on the side of Chairman Hong. Secondly, when there was a conflict between Chairman Hong and President Park Choong Min, I took the side of Chairman Hong. Thirdly, when Cube Entertainment went public, I have done my very best to help Cube Entertainment become the label that it is today.
I don't know the extend of my crime, but since September began, my schedule was wiped clean. Then I heard the news of my removal from Cube Entertainment on Spetember 13th. I could have been told this in person, but I had to read about my removal through the news. I received the notice of the early cancellation of my contract that would occur after a final discussion on September 16th. I have been notified that there would be a meeting with the stockholders and that I would be receiving the results of the meeting, but I have been told nothing. Things are being delayed with excuse after excuse, despite us being in the same building.
It's come to the point that everyday has become tortorous to me. I have been waiting for the past two months and I find it difficult to wait any longer. I ask that you give me a response by the 15th. Additionally, I would like for my contract to be cancelled in a clean way. If I receive no response by the 15th, I will take my own actions through a press conference and give the facts of everything that has happened so far. I have done my very best for this company, to the point that I disregarded my own health. Despite this, my image had hit rock bottom and my reputation has been tarnished due to my removal from Cube Entertainment.
If you hold any memories of my time with Cube Entertainment, I ask that you resolve this issue in an amicable manner. May Cube Entertainment experience continuous and endless growth. Thank you.
From, HyunA (10.04.2018)

Denmark's Digital Film Lab (DFL) has moved into a new direction with a contract from Microsoft Corp./LA to develop the implementation of High Definition in a future version of the Windows Media Player.
'To be recognised as the right partner to carry out development for Microsoft has been a very important step for us,' says Kris Kolodziejski, CEO of DFL. 'Our strength is the calibration and management of high-resolution systems for digital postproduction, and we had a very interesting working relationship with Microsoft.'
The aim has been to ensure Windows Media in the future can work with High Definition material, and the increased quality it insures. The results of this collaboration will be presented at NAB in Las Vegas later this year.
DFL has had international success with Digital Intermediate productions on features and shorts, which is still its main area, but has also recently moved into digital archive film restoration as well as research and development for the computer industry. Paul Read, who was DFL's consultant on archival restoration and film technology for some years, will in the future head the DFL London facility in collaboration with Kris Kolodziejski.
Day-to-day manager of the London office will be the new Sales & Marketing Manager Zahida Bacchus, who worked for nine years with UK lab, Soho Images. Among many recent digital postproduction tasks DFL was responsible for the distinct visuals of Berlin Golden-Bear winner Bloody Sunday and the Oscar-nominated Lagaan from India.
On the slate in DFL's labs in London and Copenhagen are a number of films from around the world including Unni Traume's Music For Wedding And Funerals, Lasse Spang Olsen's Old Men In New Cars, Peter Mullan's The Magdalene Sisters, Alex Cox's Revengers Tragedy and John Henderson's upcoming Two Men Went To War.


text: Chips vs. Strips posted 6/5/2015 in General Security of debit card and credit card data has been a hot topic in the last couple of years. During that time, large companies like JP Morgan & Chase, Home Depot and others have experienced data breaches in which card data has been stolen.One solution that has been implemented worldwide and is finally gaining steam in the United States is moving to EMV (Europay, MasterCard, Visa) debit and credit cards. These cards use enhanced technology placed in a chip instead of a magnetic strip to secure your transactions.The goal for the United States is to have most Visa, MasterCard and American Express credit and debit cards be EMV cards by the end of October of this year. After that time, banks issuing non-EMV cards will be held liable for incurred fraudulent charges.But what else do you need to know about EMV cards? Here are a few frequently asked questions surrounding EMV cards.Common Questions About EMV Cards How are EMV cards more secure than cards with a magnetic strip? Every time you use an EMV card, the chip creates a unique code for that transaction that can't be used again. However, if someone copies the strip on your debit card, they could use that over and over to make fraudulent purchases. How do I use an EMV card if I can't swipe it? Instead of a swipe, you simply dip. You simply insert your card into a terminal slot and wait for it to process. It will take a little more time than swiping. Will I still have to enter a pin or sign? Yes, depending on which verification method is tied to your card. Why has it taken the U.S. so long to switch to EMV cards? The United States is a huge market with dozens upon dozens of credit card companies and providers. It takes an enormous amount of time, effort and money to get all card issuers switched over. Are there different names for EMV cards? Yes, EMV cards go by many names, including: smart card, chip card, smart-chip card, chip-enabled smart card and EMV smart card. The hope is that moving to EMV cards will provide greater protection for your financial information.

There are two recognized Player of the Year races in the tournament poker world, the CardPlayer Magazine rankings and the Global Poker Index standings. In these two leaderboards, the effect of "High Roller" tournaments – events with a buy in north of $10,000 – have been thoroughly felt. Now, those style of tournaments will get their own dedicated tournament schedule.
Poker Central Teams with ARIA, Bellagio, World Series of Poker
On Friday, Poker Central announced the summer schedule for the "High Roller of the Year" award. The streaming outlet for poker was joined by many of the top poker entities in Las Vegas, ARIA Casino Resort, the Bellagio and the World Series of Poker, and the L. A. Poker Classic in Los Angeles, in combining their talents to put together a 35-event roster that will range in buy-ins from $10,000 up to $100,000. Part of the 35 event schedule has already been completed, with the U. S. Poker Open (10 tournaments) that was completed in March putting their results into the mix along with three High Roller events from the L. A. Poker Classic.
There will be another four months of action, with most of it being filmed at the PokerGO Studios located on the site of ARIA. The ARIA High Roller Series hosts roughly four events per month that have a buy in of either $10K or $25K. These are the events which will make up the bulk of the summer schedule for the High Roller of the Year battle.
The other events on the roster are shared between the Bellagio and the WSOP. Currently underway at the Bellagio are two tournaments that will add their players to the leaderboard of the High Roller of the Year. The Bellagio will also feature three events in June, a $10,000 Short Deck Hold'em tournament and two other $10K No Limit Hold'em tournaments.
Not to be outdone, the WSOP puts its series of High Roller events in with the competition. A $50K No Limit Hold'em event (beginning on May 31), a $25K Pot Limit Omaha event (June 19), the $50,000 Poker Players' Championship (June 24) and a $100,000 No Limit Hold'em event (July 11) will be annotated for the High Roller of the Year competition.
The finale of the High Roller of the Year competition will be on July 10, a $50,000 High Roller tournament to be held at ARIA.
Who is Competing So Far…
With the U. S. Poker Open and the High Roller tournaments at the L. A. Poker Classic in the books, these are the players that currently make up the Top Ten on the list:
1. Sean Winter, 690 points
2. David Peters, 644
3. Cary Katz, 595
4. Stephen Chidwick, 540
5. Nick Schulman, 410
6. Ali Imsirovic, 390
7. Brandon Adams, 365
8. Koray Aldemir, 340
9. Maria Ho, 300
Rainer Kempe (tie)
And is There Really a Need?
Some would say the need for a dedicated "High Roller of the Year" leaderboard and tournament schedule are a redundancy because of the way the tournaments dominate the supposedly "normal" Player of the Year races. The "normal" POY standings features four people – Winter, Peters, Chidwick and Kempe – who are also on the High Roller board. The other members of the CardPlayer and GPI rankings – such High Roller stalwarts as Bryn Kenney, David Baker and Jack Salter – haven't racked up enough points in the scheduled High Roller events to have made an impact but are currently ranked in the "normal" POY. What it will do is generate programming for PokerGO, who will have the broadcast rights to all the tournaments and will dole them out during the summer of 2019. And it will provide some excitement as poker fans watch unbelievable amounts of money being wagered by the combatants. But the real success will come if there is another "High Roller of the Year" competition in 2020 or is this a one-shot deal.

[LONDON] Financial crime has replaced rapid house price growth on the watch list of Britain's markets regulator after a series of scandals that have shaken public faith in the finance industry.
The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) announced on Tuesday seven key risk areas as part of its 2015-16 business plan, with financial crime added to the list and house price growth - which has cooled in recent months - dropped since last year.
The regulator said it would focus on company controls to prevent money laundering, including terrorist financing and sanctions, bribery and corruption, and consumer fraud.
"Firms that fail to place adequate emphasis on implementing necessary systems and controls are more vulnerable to being used to further financial crime," it said.
Other areas of focus include encouraging a corporate culture that puts customers and fairness above profit, monitoring a newly liberalised pensions market, ensuring technology does not favour any one party and that contract terms are fair.
Corporate culture has long been a key theme for the FCA, a two-year-old organisation whose regulatory predecessor was blamed for failing to spot and halt reckless market practices that helped to spark the 2007-08 financial crisis.
Since its birth the FCA - with US and European peers - has attempted to restore a sense of ethics to markets while investigating allegations of rigging in markets such as foreign exchange and benchmark interest rates and ensuring consumers are compensated after scandals such as a loan insurance mis-selling scam that has cost banks 16 billion pounds (S$32.94 billion).
Its workload for next year will include an inquiry into any conflicts of interest in "dark pools", private share-trading venues set up by banks for large customers that have come under scrutiny amid concerns they are too opaque, and a study on the asset management industry to examine charges paid by investors.
Other areas of focus include examining whether pension firms are helping consumers to make appropriate choices after an overhaul that eases a requirement for people to buy annuities as part of their pension - but which could trigger scams that prey on vulnerable, cash-rich pensioners.
The regulator will also examine how much flexibility there is for consumers in the mortgage market after new affordability rules were introduced, eyeing barriers to competition and consumers' ability to switch provider or access credit.
Despite removing house prices from its watch list, the FCA said it would continue to monitor them as well as consumers'ability to cope with a potential rise in interest rates.

Ocean, Earth and Atmospheric Sciences Graduate Major (MA, MS, PhD)
Graduate Areas of Concentration
Atmospheric sciences, geological oceanography, geophysics, ocean ecology and biogeochemistry, physical oceanography
Major Code: 5001
Ocean, Earth and Atmospheric Sciences (OEAS) is an interdisciplinary graduate major that first introduces students to the elements of the Earth system and the processes of mass and energy flow among them through a set of core/breadth courses:
Students then pursue focused graduate course work and research in the following concentration areas, directed by their program committee.
OEAS Concentration Areas
Atmospheric Sciences
The atmospheric sciences are concerned with dynamics, physics and processes, including the interactions of the atmosphere with soil physics, hydrology and oceanic circulation. The atmospheric sciences concentration in the College of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences prepares students for careers in teaching and research through advanced study and participation in research projects directed by faculty members. MA, MS and PhD degrees are offered.
Applicants should have an undergraduate degree in physics, mathematics, engineering, chemistry or atmospheric science, with strength in mathematics. All applicants should have completed one year each of chemistry and physics with calculus, and courses in vector calculus and in differential equations.
Students perform thesis research on a wide range of problems including the study of global climate change, clouds and the earth's radiation budget, the structure and dynamics of turbulent flows, air-sea interaction, planetary atmospheres, the optimal use and economic value of weather and climate forecasts, and the study of acid rain and its effects on terrestrial ecosystems. In addition to theoretical, numerical, and observational methods of analysis, approximately one-fourth of the research projects either use or are developing methods for obtaining meteorological information from satellites.
Opportunities exist for PhD candidates to conduct some of their thesis research in Europe or at the National Center for Atmospheric Research. Most research projects involve collaboration with other scientists, either on the Oregon State University campus or at major domestic or international research centers.
Geophysics is concerned with physical processes within and on Earth, especially the internal physical constitution of the planet, and seismic, gravitational, geothermal, geoelectrical, geomagnetic phenomena and their relation to geological processes. The geophysics concentration offers graduate work toward MA, MS, and PhD degrees. Candidates should have an undergraduate degree in physics, mathematics, engineering, geology, or geophysics. Mathematics through differential equations is required and mathematical physics is desirable. Graduate Record Exam scores are required of all applicants. Opportunities for research exist on a wide range of geophysical problems in marine and continental regimes, emphasizing experimental, applied, and theoretical aspects.
Oceanography, the application of the sciences to the study of the oceans, is an interdisciplinary environmental science concerned with all processes: biological, chemical, geological, and physical, as well as the interactions between the ocean. The College of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences graduate major offers MA, MS, and PhD degrees with a concentration in oceanography.
For all areas in oceanography, applicants should have a strong quantitative background and an undergraduate degree in a relevant field of science or engineering and one year each of chemistry, physics, and calculus. Prior background in oceanography is not essential.
In geological oceanography (marine geology), a broad range of geological processes that influence the ocean is studied. Fields of interest include plate tectonics and the structure of the ocean basins, igneous petrology and geochemistry, paleoceanography and paleoclimatology, and coastal sedimentary processes. Candidates show strength in one or more of these fields: earth science, chemistry, physics, biology or mathematics.
Physical oceanography research covers the physical processes in the sea, exchange of energy and momentum at the air-sea interface, and the transmission and absorption of energy in the sea (e.g., light, heat, and sound). Circulation, tides, waves, heat content and density distributions are some of the other phenomena of particular interest. Candidates should have an undergraduate major in physics, mathematics, or engineering.

text: Master Xu Yun (1840-1959) exercised a subtle blend of iron-like Dharma discipline, coupled with a gentle and soft loving kindness and compassion. He never engaged in personal friendships, or fostered links of inappropriate familiarity, and he certainly never engaged in nepotism. The latter characteristic is particularly interesting, considering that he was born into a Chinese culture that had, for thousands of years, extolled the family unit as the basis of a civilised society. He practised 'neidan' Daoism in his youth under a Master Wang in the family home, but when he reached 18 years of age (around 1858/59) he left home to pursue the Buddha-Dharma. Within traditional Chinese thinking, when a person is born, they are already 'one' years old (as they have been in the womb for about a year), and when they die, another year is added out of a sense of Confucian respect for the elderly (and the deceased). Generally speaking, (even in Chinese discourse), Xu Yun's age is calculated from a strict chronological progression, very much following the Western dating system, but from a traditional viewpoint, Master Xu Yun could well have been in his 121st year of life when he passed away. The convention of recording his life from a strict chronological perspective, appears to have been initiated by Xu Yun himself, whilst dictating his autobiography to his disciples. When reading the original Chinese language version of this text, I cannot see any evidence of alteration or censor regarding this matter. That being the case, it is interesting to observe Master Xu Yun pursuing this 'modern' system of dating, and not adhering to the 'old' dating system of adding two theoretical years to a person's actual age. He was 'modern' in other ways, such as advocating equality between men and women, monastics and the laity, nobility and peasant, as well as the politician and the ordinary person. However, at the sametime he never 'sullied' these categories, or denied that these 'differences' existed and were relevant for contextual definition. A monastic, for instance, must follow the entirety of the Vinaya Discipline, whilst the laity must follow the basic Vinaya rules as specified by the Buddha. Although monastics and lay-people were 'equal' in essence (as both were 'equal' manifestations of the empty mind ground), each category represented a different and specific aspect of the empty mind ground and its functionality in the world. A monastic is not a lay person, and a lay person is not a monastic, as these are two different categories (or 'frequencies') of Buddhist practice. A monastic sets a thoroughly 'pure' example of following every single Vinaya rule, whilst a lay-person does not need to do this. A lay-person, whilst inhabiting deluded society, must apply the Dharma to that set of circumstances in any relevant manner that relieves suffering, and encourages others to pursue their own enlightenment. A monastic exists very much on a 'fast track' toward enlightenment, with virtually every barrier of delusion removed by the Vinaya Discipline, but a lay-person certainly does not live in such an exalted state, and is confronted by many deluded barriers that often seem insurmountable at times. However, despite the odds being stacked against the lay-person, (and very much in favour of the monastic), it is recorded that in the Buddha's lifetime, both lay-men and women realised enlightenment. This is a tradition very much preserved within the Chinese Ch'an School, that has seen many ordinary men and women attain enlightenment through a committed practice, or by encountering a sublime master. For a lay-person to mistakenly assume that they are a 'monastic', devalues the importance of practising Buddhism (and attaining enlightenment) as a 'lay' person. Of course, a monastic must never consider themselves a 'lay' person as this devalues the practice of the full Vinaya Discipline. In reality, people within society are either 'monastic' or 'lay' with regard to social function, but the enlightenment they realise is exactly the same in essence, with only the social roles differing. Having established these facts, it is important to understand that a realised monastic is not limited to his or her social role, and that realised members of lay society are equally not limited to their role. There exists enlightened freedom that functions through specific social roles, but which remains completely 'free' of any limitations as defined by those roles.

Brand value rankings are more popular than ever, and are often seen as the equivalent of Marketing value rankings — but are they ? Milward Brown recently published their annual Brand Z top 100 Most Valuable Brand rankings. Google topped the list, with Microsoft and many other well known brands following on their heels. In fact, Eileen Campbell, CEO of Milward Brown, says: "It is a fantastic achievement to be one of the most valuable brands in the world… this ranking is a way for marketers to identify the value that their brand is creating for the business." But who's really creating all the value ?
Milward Brown's brand value calculations are relatively straightforward: Intangible Earnings x Brand Contribution x Brand Multiple. But what, if anything, is this really telling us about Marketing's value to the organization ? I'd argue: not very much.
Let's look at a few examples to understand why. American Express, inarguably a great brand, dropped in value -40%. Was Amex marketing last year that bad ? Citi fell -52%. Weak marketing ? Target was down -17%. The fall of "expect more, pay less ?" Interestingly, a recent Nielsen IAG survey showed that consumer brand confidence was higher among those consumers seeing financial services advertising versus those who did not. So, clearly, brand spending reductions during a downturn probably account for some of the decline in brand value. But, I don't think these brand valuation declines are all about marketing effectiveness or even reductions in marketing spending. So, if not, what are they about ?
In the case of Amex, what was the role of poor risk management decisions ? Acceptance of TARP funds ? At Citi, Investment Bankers made mistakes in the sub-prime mortgage market. These mistakes generated write-downs, losses, and reduced consumer confidence and trust. The last time I checked, the people responsible for these activities in Amex and Citi weren't in Marketing. In Targets case, consumer confidence eroded quickly as the recession deepened. Target's value proposition became less relevant. Walmart's became more so–it gained +19% in brand value. Is this bad marketing — or is the culprit poor merchandise mix and selection when consumers are suddenly much more value conscious ?
What the brand valuations tell us is this: many things impact the brand: many of which are outside of Marketing. Public relations fiasco's, poor corporate earnings, mistakes in departments outside of Marketing, bad product experience, etc. — the list goes on and on. Yes, Marketing should "own" the brand and be it's steward, ensuring that the organization is protecting and building the brand–both inside and outside Marketing.
Marketing needs to influence the entire enterprise and have everyone understand their impact on the brand. It's Marketing's mandate to define the brand, the key brand drivers, but most importantly, to then educate, motivate and inspire people throughout the enterprise to execute in ways that build brand value–not destroy it.
So, my take is this: the Milward Brown study is very important for Marketing, but not as a measure of Marketing value. Rather, it's a clarion call for Marketing to have more influence and more impact on the brand by extending its reach beyond Marketing. After all, the easy part is the marketing communications. The harder, but arguably equally important part, is driving brand value throughout the entire enterprise.

Detroit Tigers assign top pick Casey Mize to minors
LAKELAND, Fla. (AP) — Detroit Tigers manager Ron Gardenhire was impressed with Casey Mize's brief stint with the major leaguers.
"The kid was awesome. He had a ball here," Gardenhire said. "Having him pitch yesterday and seeing him out there was impressive."
Mize, the No. 1 selection in last year's draft, was assigned to minor league camp by the Tigers on Tuesday. He gave Detroit fans a glimpse of his possible future on Monday, when he pitched two innings against St. Louis. Mize struck out the first two batters of a 1-2-3 seventh, then allowed a run in the eighth after walking two.
Mize went 10-6 with a 3.30 ERA in 17 starts at Auburn last year . He made four starts in the minors across the Rookie and Class A levels.
Last month, Mize pitched two innings for the Tigers in a game against Southeastern University, allowing three hits and a run and striking out two. He came in last week against the New York Yankees and allowed a hit before the game was called because of rain.

Masquerade Deals: A new book discovery feature #free #99cents
By tweeting this post, you can earn promotional tweets from me as part of the Amazon Tweet Exchange.
Details here.
Details here.
We offer some pretty awesome promotion: long-term and short-term posts specifically. The number of tweets these posts get make the meager price tag more than worth it. However, there are still some authors who look at $20 or $30 and say that's too much. Masquerade Deals aims to fix that problem.
The idea is simple: a daily post about free books, cheap books, and the like. If this idea gets off the ground like I hope it does, we may even allow full-priced books.
But there's a problem.
I don't really have room for many more tweets (I'm behind as it is), and the book club is already getting enough emails that I wouldn't dare send them more. So, we'll need another way to advertise these books. That's where this post comes in.
Before we can start this new feature, we have to have some people to market to. A new email list sounds like the best idea. If you would like to receive a daily email (or as often as I can if not daily), fill out the form below.
Those who are members of the book club may recognize the form. It's an exact copy of the book club form.
Though I ask you about your favorite genres, the emails initially won't filter by genre. When there are enough people subscribed and authors participating, we'll filter by genre so you only see the books you might be interested in.

Alice Munro won the 2009 Man Booker International Prize for her fiction. I have occasionally come across one of her stories in an anthology or The New Yorker, but I have never actually read an entire volume of her work. I understand why she deserves this prize.
These stories have a smoothness to them: no rough edges, nothing unusual, simply people living ordinary lives. Of these eight stories, five stand alone, but the most absorbing and the most interesting are three involving a character named Juliet. This set lies so close to the border of a novel, I wish with all my heart it comes out finished and complete. The ends are tied up too quickly, because I did not want the series to end.
This is not to say that I did not enjoy all of them – I absolutely did! But I found myself deep into Juliet, because Munro's prose is that clever, that clear and bright. Here is a passage from the first in the series, "Chance"
"Juliet cleaned up the stroller, and Penelope, and herself, and set off on a walk into town. She had the excuse that she needed a certain brand of mild disinfectant soap with which to wash the diapers—if she used ordinary soap the baby would get a rash. But she had other reasons, irresistible though embarrassing.
"This was the way she had walked to school for years of her life. Even when she was going to college, and came home on a visit, she was still the same—a girl going to school. Would she never be done going to school? Somebody asked Sam [her father] that at a time when she had just won the Intercollegiate Latin Translation Prize, and he had said, "'Fraid not." (101).
Munro shows us the overarching theme of these stories in the title. Each story has a character trying to escape, but most often, -- even when they do get away – ties that bind hold them to the past. As Thomas Wolfe said, "You can't go home again." And you can't get away from home either. Five stars

If it is practical, it might be easier to erase the database and start over. Otherwise, you can remove them from the student group fairly easily, since they all have usernames that start with "student" so search for that and select all the results to be switched to "Added in error." To delete them entirely from the database, you need select the Delete action from each student's main info page.
Can you help with this problem?

So I was at Tropicana Mall (now known as 3 Damansara) last week to watch Crazy Rich Asians. I decided to have lunch at Three Little Pigs and The Big Bad Wolf restaurant as there is a keto menu there. , Yes you heard me, keto menu! I am so delighted that I can finally have real keto food without having to cook them myself.
The keto menu is developed by Charine from Yummy Keto by Charine. Do check out her Facebook page as she has a range of keto products such as bread mix, cake mix, pork meat floss, pork croutons and more for sale too.

This is what I ordered that day:-
Keto all-day breakfast that comes with a sunny side up egg, sausage, grilled tomato and 2 pieces of almond bread. The reason I chose this is because of the almond bread. I wanted to know if it tasted like the ones I make myself. I would say they are similar *chuckle*. It is so good to be able to eat at a restaurant and have some bread.
I can't wait to try its other food when I visit the next time. If you are following the keto way of eating, you must check out this keto menu at Three Little Pigs and the Big Bad Wolf.

From Thomas Jefferson to James Madison, 27 March 1796
To James Madison
Mar. 27. 96.
Yours of the 13th. is recieved. I am enchanted with Mr. Gallatin's speech in Bache's paper of Mar. 14. It is worthy of being printed at the end of the Federalist, as the only rational commentary on the part of the constitution to which it relates. Not that there may not be objections, and difficult ones, to it, and which I shall be glad to see his answers to: but if they are never answered, they are more easily to be gulped down than those which lie to the doctrines of his opponents, which do in fact annihilate the whole of the powers given by the constitution to the legislature. According to the rule established by usage and common sense of construing one part of the instrument by another, the objects on which the P. and S. may exclusively act by treaty are much reduced, but the field on which they may act, with the sanction of the legislature, is large enough: and I see no harm in rendering their sanction necessary, and not much harm in annihilating the whole treaty making power, except as to making peace. If you decide in favor of your right to refuse cooperation in any case of treaty, I should wonder on what occasion it is to be used, if not on one where the rights, the interest, the honor and faith of our nation are so grossly sacrificed, where a faction has entered into conspiracy with the enemies of their country to chain down the legislature at the feet of both; where the whole mass of your constituents have condemned this work in the most unequivocal manner, and are looking to you as their last hope to save them from the effects of the avarice and corruption of the first agent, the revolutionary machinations of others, and the incomprehensible acquiescensce of the only honest man who has assented to it. I wish that his honesty and his political errors may not furnish a second occasion to exclaim 'curse on his virtues, they've undone his country.'—Cold weather. Mercury 26. in the morning. Corn fallen at Richmond to 20/—stationary here. Nicholas sure of his election. R. Jouett and Jo. Monroe in competition for the other vote of the county. Affections to Mrs. M. and yourself. Adieu.
RC (DLC: Madison Papers); unsigned; addressed: "James Madison Congress Philadelphia." PrC (DLC); faded, with date overwritten in ink by TJ.
Mr. Gallatin's speech: in his address before the House on 9 Mch. 1796, Pennsylvania Congressman Albert Gallatin supported Livingston's resolution calling upon the president to submit the documents relating to the Jay Treaty, arguing that "as far as a Treaty negotiated by the Executive embraced Legislative objects, so far it required the sanction of the Legislature" to make it the law of the land. "Unless it is allowed that either the power of the House over the purse-strings is a check, or the existing laws cannot be repealed by a Treaty, or that the special powers granted to Congress limit the general power of Treaty-making," Gallatin contended "there are no bounds to it, it must absorb all others, repeal all laws in contravention to it, and act without control" (Philadelphia Aurora, 14 Mch. 1796; Annals, description begins Annals of the Congress of the United States: The Debates and Proceedings in the Congress of the United States … Compiled from Authentic Materials Washington, D.C., Gales & Seaton, 1834–56, 42 vols. All editions are undependable and pagination varies from one printing to another. The first two volumes of the set cited here have "Compiled … by Joseph Gales, Senior" on the title page and bear the caption "Gales & Seatons History" on verso and "of Debates in Congress" on recto pages. The remaining volumes bear the caption "History of Congress" on both recto and verso pages. Those using the first two volumes with the latter caption will need to employ the date of the debate or the indexes of debates and speakers. description ends v, 464–74).
Only honest man: Washington. Curse on his virtues: Addison's Cato, Act iv, Sc. iv, l. 35.

Super League Round Fifteen – Hull FC 28 Rovers 16 – Sunday 22nd May – St James Park, Newcastle
Hull FC not only made it four consecutive Hull Derby victories in a row by beating Hull Kingston Rovers 28-16 on Sunday evening, but now sit proudly at the top of the Super League table following their tenth win in eleven games.
In a remarkable reign of form, the Black and Whites' season hit new heights with what was in all honesty an average performance at best seeing them home against their bitterest of rivals.
Going two points clear of second placed Warrington, Hull in the end saw off Hull KR in the final game of the Magic Weekend, with a magnificent travelling following behind them. The support from the faithful was incredible as thousands descended on the Toon for the second year running.
The game itself was far from the walkover expected. Only one team turned up to play rugby league, with Rovers seeming content to slow the game down at every opportunity.
Coming off the bench Carlos Tuimavave was instrumental in sealing victory for Hull FC. He came up with two huge passes that lead to tries and distributed with intent and purpose from his introduction.
As always Gareth Ellis was incredible in a captains performance which seemed to lift Hull during his stints. He wasn't alone either, Scott Taylor and Liam Watts gave everything, as hooking workhorse Danny Houghton completed his 250th Hull FC appearance.
Mahe Fonua meanwhile was outstanding throughout and made his presence count early on as he leaped highest to gather a towering Sneyd bomb. The half back converted, as Curtis Naughton soon ensured a 10-0 lead was to follow, impressively finishing in the corner despite a hint of a forward pass from Fonua.
Their opponents rightly lost Shaun Lunt to the sin bin following a spear tackle on Liam Watts. Maurice Blair also elbowed Sneyd in the face as returning half back / wannabe match official Terry Campese also seemed to eye gouge Jamie Shaul, such was the – at times – disgust of Rovers' play.
Staggeringly so the ruck control was painfully slow as KR went North with some abysmal and definitely not in the spirit of the game tactics. It brought them some reward though as Lunt crossed over, before Terry Campese added the conversion and a penalty to reduce Hull to a 10-8 lead going into half time.
From the restart Sneyd knocked on with Campese adding another penalty to even the scores. Matty Marsh was splendidly halted by Shaul close to the line, but not long after Graeme Horne put Hull KR ahead before Hull lifted the intensity by a gear or two.
Mahe Fonua powered over to compete his brace running a great line of Ellis, and it wasn't long before Hull took control.
An exceptional try was concluded with Jamie Shaul coming up with yet another match clinching four pointer. Though the magic moment came from Tuimavave with a bullet pass to release Kirk Yeaman, who showed great composure to find Mark Minichiello who in turn put Shaul over.
The Australian back rower then rampaged through some weak defence to compete the victory, as Sneyd landed his fourth and final goal of the evening.
Sneyd then hit the post with a late drop goal attempt as Hull FC competed yet another Hull Derby victory in the Super League era, moving to the competitions summit at the half way point of the season.

The season is 2007-2008.
The last time the Detroit Pistons were seen as relevant in the NBA for championship contention. A decade later after making the Eastern Conference Finals for the sixth time in as many years, the Pistons now have surprisingly put themselves in the forefront of NBA relevancy once again in the early part of the season.
Since 2008, the Pistons have made the playoffs only twice, both times losing in the first round. They only sported a winning record once in that same span back in the 2015-16 season where they went 44-38 and squeezed into the playoff picture before getting swept by LeBron James and the Cavaliers.
After 15 games into this season, the Pistons sport the second-best record in the East at 10-4 while beating quality teams in the process. They are one of three teams to beat Golden State this year (on the road nonetheless) as well as defeating the Minnesota Timberwolves and Milwaukee Bucks. Even though the season isn't even a quarter way through, the Pistons definitely caught the eyes of other teams in the league.
Now the biggest question that underlies this team is what has caused this recent success?
There are many factors that attribute to this and all of it has meshed together at the right time to put the Pistons near the top in the East:
1. Andre Drummond's free throw shooting: For years Drummond had been the laughing stock of the league when it came to making free throws at the line where he's shooting an abysmal 38.6 percent for his career. At the end of last season he finally came to terms with his free throws woes and called up his old trainer Idan Ravin to help him go back to the basics and the results are paying off. He's now shooting 63.2 percent from the line which keeps him on the floor at the end of games and gives Detroit their best rebounder and rim runner to close it out.
"It's like night and day," Drummond told ESPN.com. "It's been an exciting process for me to see the progress that I've put in over the years, the time that I've spent, countless hours in the gym shooting free throws. Working on mechanics, working on the mental aspect, so to see the work that I've put in come out to light is exciting that it's finally here.
2. Tobias Harris' emergence: 48/50/90 are the shooting splits for the small forward which contribute to his career-high 20.1 points per game early on. He looks more calm and has assertive himself more on offense as he's averaging 16 shots a game which is also a career-high. Harris has been a steady presence for the Pistons and emerged as a candidate for Most Improved Player of the Year.
3. Deeper bench: The Pistons bench looks revitalized this year and is giving major contributions to the starters holding leads and often extending them against other second units. Langston Galloway, Ish Smith, Anthony Tolliver and Boban Marjanovic all have helped with quality minutes and no over reliance on any one of them is needed as a different player can be the high scoring guy in any game.
4. Commitment to defense: While no one is going to mix up the Pistons' defense with the Rudy Gobert-led Jazz anytime soon, it goes to show they have improved on that side of the court this season tremendously. They currently rank tied with the Memphis Grizzlies for sixth in opponents' points per game at 101.1 and only the Washington Wizards scored more than 110 points against them. This renewed dedication to defend for a full game may be attributed to the newly acquired defensive minded ace Avery Bradley and his toughness that he brought with him from Boston.
Even though it's still way too early in the season to make any bold claims about how it will end (I mean the Cleveland Cavaliers are currently ninth in the standings), the Pistons have all the ingredients to keep themselves relevant throughout the season.

I recently had breakfast with a good friend of mine, to celebrate my birthday. We much more relish time together than birthday presents. Gifts come in many forms. Neither of us needs anything tangible. We both prefer each other's company.
My friend is 32 years my senior – a greater difference than that between my mother and myself. She represents the best in a friendship. She embodies motherly concern, she is someone to have philosophical and topically interesting discussions with, and she inspires me with her attitude, experiences, and generosity of spirit. She is a disciplined person, much my opposite, but she gives me a different and equally important perspective when I need one. Yet she is never judgmental and always accepts me for who I am. What can be better.
She has lived to see amazing things come to fruition in 89 years. She saw the synthesizing of insulin, frozen foods, TV, scotch tape, electron microscopes, Polaroid cameras, nylon,photocopiers, ballpoint pens, Teflon, Sikorsky's first helicopter, aerosol cans, microwave ovens, Velcro, the jukebox, the first credit card, superglue, bar codes, transistor radios, oral contraceptives, optical fiber, tetracycline, the pacemaker, the first air crossing of the Pacific, Speedos, letter sorting machines (and to think the post office is nearly outmodes altogether), sports utility cars, penicillin, rotary lawn mowers, permanent press, the airplane black box, plastic optical lenses, ultrasound, latex gloves, the inflatable emergency airplane slide, microsurgery, pop top cans, in-vitro fertilization, integrated circuits, electronic ignition, space travel, personal computers, ATM machines, gene splicing, bionic ears for the deaf, Post-It notes, MRI imaging, laser printing, spreadsheets, solar cells, plastic bone replacements, soft, multi-focal, continuous wear, and disposable contact lenses, roller blades, hepatitis vaccinations, genetically engineered tissue, Doppler radar, HDTV, world wide web, Google, mapping of the human genome, to name a few!
She delights in things that virtually no one else her age would consider. She embraces every opportunity to learn something new when offered. She lives life intentionally – she does not wait around for the inevitable. Every minute she is alive is not wasted. I strive to grow up to be her. And I am blessed and honored that she calls me her friend.
