ArcelorMittal Gains Most in 6 Months on BofA: Johannesburg Mover
Jaco VisserArcelorMittal South Africa Ltd., the continent's largest steelmaker, gained the most in six months, capping a seven-day rally after Bank of America Corp. recommended buying the stock.
The shares rose 10 percent, the most since Nov. 21, to 32.11 rand by the close in Johannesburg. About 1.5 million shares, or 1.7 times than three-month daily average, changed hands.
Bank of America raised its recommendation on the stock to buy from neutral and increased its price estimate to 46 rand from 31 rand, citing the company's target for earnings within three years.
"While we remain cautious on the pace of recovery in South Africa construction, we believe ArcelorMittal South Africa has done a good job at addressing key investor concerns," analysts, including Andrew Snowdowne in Johannesburg, wrote in a report dated today. A weaker rand may lead to "significant" upgrades, they said.
The company is "highly leveraged" to a weak rand, with 55 percent of its costs in the local currency, analysts at Bank of America said. Sales abroad accounted for 20 percent of the steelmaker's revenue in 2011, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
While the stock has climbed 42 percent from an almost 10-year low on April 29, the rand has tumbled 9.3 percent in the past month, the worst performer among 16 major currencies tracked by Bloomberg.
"ArcelorMittal South Africa is having a tremendous run," Ryan Wibberley, head of equity dealing for frontier and emerging markets at Cape Town-based Investec Asset Management, said in an e-mailed response to questions. "It began last week when the market began to price in the steel manufacturer's oversold position, particularly in light of the weakening rand."

How All Of The O's Pitchers Were Acquired: 2014 Roster Tree Explains That The Staff Was Created By Deft Transactions!
Posted by MLB reports
How All Of The Orioles Pitchers Were Acquired:
By Chuck Booth Lead Baseball Analyst/Website Owner) & Nick Delahanty (MLB Reports Featured Writer): Follow @chuckbooth3024 Follow @nick_delahanty
Follow MLB Reports On Twitter Follow @mlbreports
The Orioles made a swift and blunt move last off season, when they traded their 2012 and 2013 Closer Jim Johnson for Jemile Weeks.
The club took some flak in virtually discarding a 101 save man over the last few years to save some money. Johnson was awarded $10 MIL for the year, and has flamed out in Oakland and Detroit since. Those dollars are about what the team receives collectively as a unit.
The team was also lambasted for the signing/not signing of Grant Balfour, because a sketchy physical. Again, they have looked good in the transaction.
The O's have done a great job building their Bullpen and Rotation.
Chris Tillman was part of the now extremely lopsided deal, which saw Adam Jones for Erik Bedard several years back.
That coupled with some waiver claims (T.J. McFarland as a Rule 5 Draft Picks) and former team draft picks – converting in to late inning arms (Brian Matusz and Closer Zach Britton), and you have seen a brilliant molding of a Relief Core.
Darren O'Day was claimed off of waivers from Texas, in the same campaign the club also fleeced the Rangers, with the Chris Davis/Tommy Hunter deal for Koji Uehara.
Ryan Webb was actually optioned to the Minors, despite decent numbers, while clearing a path for Andrew Miller, as part of a deal from Boston. Miller is one of the better LHP out of the pen in the last year.
The team has supplanted the rotation, with a few key Free Agents over the years, starting with Wei-Yin Chen, and Miguel Gonzalez.
Kevin Gausman represents the only starter right now that was drafted by the team originally.
Bud Norris was brought into Baltimore for a couple of former draft picks and a 2014 RD A compensation pick.
The other significant 2013 deal for the staff – was dealing a Minor Leaguer for Brad Brach.
The Ubaldo Situation
Looking at the numbers, Buck Showalter has the right idea in taking Jimenez out of the rotation.Regardless of the contract figures, Jimenez has failed to be that ace that the Orioles expected to get when he signed his 4 YR $50 MM dollar contract in the winter.
It's time to let Jimenez take some time to figure things out, as hopefully skipping a start or two will give him time to work on his mechanics to help get him back on track.
This is also familiar territory for the Orioles, as Showalter and crew have had some good success sending guys to the bullpen.
Remember, Zach Britton and Tommy Hunter, two of the best arms in the Orioles' bullpen this season, were starters that struggled, but once they were shifted to the bullpen they seemed to have figured it out and have been very reliable throughout the season.
Maybe Jimenez can find a role in the pen that could help the team clinch a playoff spot. Read the rest of this entry →

At the MLB Reports, we intend to show you the Roster Tree for the Houston Astros – and how they assembled their current roster for hitting and Pitching.
It will work in a six degrees of separation like format.
Once we figure out the origin of how many trades going back in time it takes to see where the tree started, it will be time to dissect how the team fared on the deals.
If a player has never left the organization at all, the tree will be easy – as it will just be the year they were drafted or signed.
Sometimes pitchers will be in the hitters part of the write-up and vice versa. This is simply done when one side of hitter or pitcher is dealt for each other. Read the rest of this entry →

The Houston Astros Payroll in 2014 + Organization: Affiliates, Prospects + Depth Charts (MLB + MiLB)

A 3rd straight season with 105+ Losses, and 15 straight losses to finish the 2013 campaign does not give the fans very much to look forward to in 2014.
I am here to tell you that the MLB should be ashamed of letting the Houston Astros field such an incompetent team.
Having said this, I don't personally blame them for tanking it over the last 3 years. They are the other 'extreme' – of what the New York Yankees and LA Dodgers have done payroll wise.
Last season at the end of the year, their highest paid player for the Active Roster was Erik Bedard, making $1.1 MIL.
If they keep picking 1st overall, it is only a matter of time before the team becomes very good, just like the Rays, Nationals, Twins and Pirates have all done in recent times.

Baltimore Orioles Payroll In 2013 And Contracts Going Forward Mar.15/2013

I believe that 2013 will be a regressive season for the Baltimore Orioles. Much like the 2011 Arizona DiamondBacks in the National League, all of the bounces and luck went the Orioles way to have a magical year of a playoff berth in 2012. A crazy amount of 1 run wins, extra inning wins and a brilliant bullpen defied the odds in the American League in order to compete.
I still think the Baltimore Orioles will be competitive in 2013, I just don't see a 90 win team. The team is not saddled with many outrageous contracts left, however it is a shame that Brian Roberts (10 Million Dollars Per Year) can't stay healthy. They will need repeat years from Adam Jones and Chris Davis, plus significant increases in production from J.J. Hardy, Matt Wieters and Nick Markakis will need to hit his .300+.
This team has to take a run at a few players via trade or a remaining Free Agent. The need for a power hitting DH and another OF with Pop to play LF would be a wise decision. The ownership will need to extend the payroll for this very option. Also, they will need to plunk down some dough to sign an ace on the Free Agency market. You can't tell me that a guy like Kyle Lohse won't help the club!

Irenaeus of Lyons: Identifying Christianity (Christian Theology in Context)
By: John Behr (author)PaperbackOnly 1 in stock
This book provides a full, contextual study of St Irenaeus of Lyons, the first great theologian of the Christian tradition. John Behr sets Irenaeus both within his own context of the second century, a fundamental period for the formation of Christian identity, elaborating the distinction between orthodoxy and heresy and expounding a comprehensive theological vision, and also within our own contemporary context, in which these issues are very much alive again. Against the commonly-held position that 'orthodoxy' was established by excluding others, the 'heretics', Behr argues that it was the self-chosen separation of the heretics that provided the occasion for those who remained together to clarify the lineaments of their faith in a church that was catholic by virtue of embracing different voices in a symphony of many voices and whose chief architect was Irenaeus, who, as befits his name, urged peace and toleration. The first chapter explores Irenaeus' background in Asia Minor, as a disciple of Polycarp of Smyrna, his activity in Gaul, and his involvement with the Christian communities in Rome. The theological and institutional significance of his interventions is made clear by tracing the coalescence of the initially fractionated communities in Rome into a united body over the first two centuries. The second chapter provides a full examination of Irenaeus' surviving writings, concentrating especially on the literary and rhetorical structure of his five books Against the Heresies, his 'refutation and overthrowal' of his opponents in the first two books, and his establishing a framework for articulating orthodoxy. The final chapter explores the theological vision of Irenaeus itself, on its own terms rather than the categories of later dogmatic theology, grounded in an apostolic reading of Scripture and presenting a vibrant and vigorous account of the diachronic and synchronic economy or plan of God, seen through the work of Christ which reveals how the Hands of God have been at work from the beginning, fashioning the creature, made from mud and animated with a breath of life, into his own image and likeness, vivified by the Holy Spirit, to become a 'living human being, the glory of God'.Create a review

WASHINGTON DEPARTMENT OF FISH AND WILDLIFE Print Version NEWS RELEASE 600 Capitol Way North, Olympia, WA 98501-1091
July 17, 2014 Contact: Craig Bartlett, (360) 902-2259
JULY 1 UPDATE: Road access to Wenatchee Lake has been restored and the state park is now open.
OLYMPIA - Anglers are advised that all roads are currently closed to Lake Wenatchee, where a popular sockeye salmon fishery is set to open Saturday (July 19).
With several wildfires burning in the area, state officials have closed U.S. Highway 2 east of Stevens Pass as well as Old State Route 209 ("Chumstick Road") between Leavenworth and the lake.
Washington State Parks has also closed entry to Lake Wenatchee State Park, the site of the primary boat launch on the lake.
"The sockeye fishery will open as scheduled, but anglers may have to wait for a few days to get to it," said Jeff Korth, regional fish manager for the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife. "We strongly advise they check reports on fire and road conditions before they head out."
Sources of that information include:
Information on the upcoming sockeye fishery is available on WDFW's website at http://wdfw.wa.gov/fishing/regulations/.

Behav. Sci. 2012, 2(3), 186-194; doi:10.3390/bs2030186
: Youth homelessness is a growing problem in the United States. The experience of homelessness appears to have numerous adverse consequences, including psychiatric and substance use disorders. This study compared the frequencies of psychiatric disorders, including substance use, between homeless youth (18–24 years-old) in San Francisco (N = 31) and Chicago (N = 56). Subjects were administered the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (M.I.N.I.) to assess DSM-IV-TR diagnoses and substance use disorders. Eighty-seven percent of the San Francisco youth, and 81% of the Chicago youth met criteria for at least one M.I.N.I. psychiatric diagnosis. Nearly two-thirds of the youth in both samples met criteria for a mood disorder. Approximately one-third met criteria for an anxiety disorder. Thirty-two percent of the San Francisco sample and 18% of the Chicago met criteria for Antisocial Personality Disorder. Approximately 84% of the San Francisco youth and 48% of the Chicago youth met criteria for a substance-related disorder, and more substances were used by San Francisco youth. In conclusion, the high rate of psychiatric disorders in homeless youth provides clear evidence that the mental health needs of this population are significant. Implications are discussed.1. Introduction
An estimated 1.7 million youth are homeless in the United States [1]. These youth are at risk for a myriad of problems including low academic achievement, psychopathology, and physical health problems. The causality of the relationship among these factors has not been determined [2]. Nevertheless, the effects of homelessness on these youth may be potentially long lasting. Specifically, experiences during adolescence are thought to have an impact on brain development and impaired development can in turn lead to problems including increased risk taking behaviors [3,4,5,6]. Such findings may help explain why homeless youth have substance use rates that are double that of their housed counterparts [7,8]. Rates of numerous psychiatric disorders are higher among homeless youth, including mood, anxiety, and substance use disorders, and it has additionally been found that homeless youth often have co-morbid psychiatric diagnoses [9].
The role of geographical location in experiences and outcomes of youth homelessness is an additional factor that warrants attention, as regional differences have been found across the country among youth, especially in areas such as risk exposure and behaviors [10,11]. Despite this, most services available for homeless youth are relatively standardized nationwide, assuming a homogenous population [12,13]. Attempts to increase the current underutilization of both mental health and substance related services may be furthered by tailoring such services to the varying needs of homeless youth [14,15].
This study specifically investigated frequencies of psychiatric disorders among homeless youth, including substance-related disorders in two cities (Chicago and San Francisco) where data collection was made possible by collaborations between members of our research team and local homeless youth service organizations. We pursued this comparison study in order to test the pragmatics for conducting research between two sites and to examine potential regional differences between homeless populations. Comparisons of the rates of disorders between homeless youth in two cities, Chicago and San Francisco, were made. It was hypothesized that, consistent with prior research, rates of psychiatric disorders and substance use (alcohol and other drugs), would be high among the homeless youth. Regional differences between the two samples were expected. A more thorough understanding of the high rates of substance-related and other psychiatric disorders, including regional differences in presentation, can be used to develop more targeted support and interventions for homeless youth.
2. Methods
2.1. Participants
San Francisco: Youth were recruited from the Larkin Street Youth Services drop-in center in San Francisco. Members of the research team were on-site in the drop-in center and center staff referred youth to the research team in order to participate in the study. Each subject had to be between the ages of 18 and 25 and speak English. After informed consent was obtained, each participant completed both a semi-structured interview with a trained research assistant and a self report questionnaire.
Chicago: Participants for the study were homeless youth who met the following inclusion criteria: (1) Individuals who "lack a fixed, regular, and adequate nighttime residence" [16] including youth who temporarily share the housing of others due to financial hardship; (2) ≥18 years-old; (3) <25 years old; (4) reside in Chicago; (5) speak English, and (6) have a measured IQ ≥ 55. Participants were recruited from two Chicago agencies, The Night Ministry and Teen Living Program. Staff members at each of the agencies initiated contact with potential participants. Interested youth were contacted by the study coordinator or research assistant, and youth for whom consent was obtained were enrolled in the study.
Demographic information is summarized in Table 1. Research in each city was approved by an institutional review board that was associated with the providers and research sites.

Multiracial | 0 | 0.0 | 3 | 5.4 |
Other | 2 | 6.5 | 3 | 5.4 |
2.2. Procedure
In both cities, participants were administered the Mini-International Neuropsychiatric Interview (M.I.N.I.) [17]. Version 5.0 was used in San Francisco and 6.0 in Chicago. The M.I.N.I. allows for the assessment of DSM-IV-TR diagnoses and substance use disorders, via a semi-structured interview. It has strong sensitivity and specificity for the majority of disorders [18]. It has high reliability (kappa 0.88–1.0) and validity (kappa usually greater than 0.5). Furthermore, its design allows for rapid exclusion of diagnoses by using pertinent negatives, limiting the time needed to complete an evaluation to about 45–60 min.
2.3. Statistical Analyses
Descriptive data were calculated for the frequencies of the various psychiatric disorders, as assessed by the M.I.N.I., in both populations. Chi- square tests were used to determine whether diagnoses of psychiatric and substance use disorders differed between the Chicago and San Francisco samples.

In San Francisco, 31 homeless youth (mean age 20.9, SD 1.8; 22.6% female; 32.0% African American, 52.0% Caucasian, 10.0% Latino) participated. In Chicago, participants included 56 homeless youth (mean age 19.3, SD 0.9; 53.6% female; 89.3% African American).
3.2. Psychiatric Disorders
Eighty-seven percent of the San Francisco youth, and 82% of the Chicago youth met criteria for at least one psychiatric diagnosis on the M.I.N.I. The average number of diagnoses was four in both San Francisco and Chicago. The percentage of youth with any mood, anxiety, or psychotic disorder were approximately 61%, 32%, and 13%, respectively, in San Francisco, and 63%, 36%, and 7%, respectively, in Chicago. Table 2 shows the specific M.I.N.I. diagnoses that were assessed in both cities. Chi square analyses were not significant, with the exception of Hypomanic Episode, Past.

3.3. Substance Use
The rates of substance-related M.I.N.I. diagnoses, abuse and dependence of alcohol and substances, are shown in Table 3. Nearly 84% of the San Francisco youth and 49% of the Chicago youth met criteria for a M.I.N.I. diagnosed substance-related disorder. Rates of dependence were higher than abuse in San Francisco (45.1% vs. 38.7%), but approximately equal in Chicago (25.0% vs. 23.2%). Also, in each city, the rate of non-alcohol substance dependence or abuse (58.1% in San Francisco; 28.6% in Chicago) was higher than alcohol dependence or abuse (48.3% in San Francisco; 19.6% in Chicago). Chi square analyses revealed no significant differences in substance abuse disorders across cities. The p value for alcohol dependence approached significance (p = 0.057).

Table 4 shows the most frequent non-alcohol substances used by homeless youth who met M.I.N.I. criteria for dependence or abuse. In both groups, cannabis was the main substance used. In San Francisco, an equal number of people reported cocaine, narcotic, and stimulant use as the next most used substances. One Chicago participant reported abuse of cough medicine, while cannabis was the only substance of dependence or abuse among the remaining Chicago youth.

* Among M.I.N.I. Substance Abuse/Dependence; Non-Alcohol.
Youth in San Francisco endorsed a wider range of substances used, in the absence of a M.I.N.I. substance use diagnosis. Over ten specific different substances were reported among the youth in San Francisco, including at least one in the stimulant, cocaine, narcotic, hallucinogen, inhalant, cannabis, and tranquilizer categories on the M.I.N.I. In Chicago, the use of four specific drugs (marijuana, cough medicine, ecstasy, and Xanax) was reported.
4. Discussion
As hypothesized, and consistent with prior studies, rates of psychiatric disorders among homeless youth were high across both San Francisco and Chicago. Based on frequency reports alone, several key similarities and differences were noted. These findings also supported our expectations, although few comparative studies currently exist (none comparing Chicago and San Francisco to our knowledge).
Demographically, the San Francisco sample was more ethnically diverse and older. The gender composition of the samples also differed, with relatively more females in the Chicago sample. Youth in San Francisco endorsed a greater number of psychiatric concerns overall; however, with the exception of Hypomanic Episode, Past, these differences did not reach significance. With regard to substance use, abuse, and dependence, no significant differences were noted between San Francisco and Chicago youth, although alcohol dependence approached significance. It is of note that San Francisco youth reported a greater number and range of specific substances used.
There were several limitations to this study. First, this study has relatively small sample sizes that have the potential to skew the sample. It is difficult to draw inferences about the representativeness of the sample to an external population because so little is known about the overall homeless population and also due to the dynamic nature of this population. Second, the type of shelter from which the participants were recruited was not matched in this preliminary study, and features of each could potentially have influenced the participant characteristics identified. Larkin Street Youth Services, the San Francisco recruitment site, is the primary provider of homeless youth services in San Francisco, and draws youth from across the city and thereby might explain the greater ethnic diversity. In contrast, the sites in Chicago drew from more localized areas, in part due to Chicago's greater degree of racial and ethnic segregation, larger size, and availability of multiple centers. Neither the San Francisco nor Chicago sites drew from youth living on the streets. Looking further into differences in shelter sites and also sampling from the streets could be a next step, since, for example, rates of substance use have been found to be different between those homeless youth who spent more time living on the streets compared to those who lived more consistently in shelters [19]. Other demographic differences were noted between the samples, including the gender and racial/ethnic composition, as well as the average age of youth at the different sites. These differences may affect patterns of psychiatric disorders and substance use. The small sample size prohibited additional analyses to examine these relationships in more detail. The sample size may have precluded finding significant results due to lack of power in the current samples. Future research will address some of these limitations, particularly by having larger sample sizes.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Service's Healthy People 2020 highlights the need for further study in such priority topics as "mental health and mental disorders," and "social determinants of health" [20]. The current study confirms this need, as it is clear that homelessness is a key element in a combination of multiple factors that contribute to unmet health needs. A better understanding of the associations between neuropsychological, psychiatric, and social variables, with attention paid to regional differences in the experiences and outcomes of homelessness, may clarify the relative impact of homelessness on these aspects of functioning. Gathering a greater range of demographic data, such as age of first homeless experience, length of time spent homeless, and education attained (which is currently being collected in our ongoing Chicago research) may further provide a more comprehensive understanding of the unique factors of the experience of homelessness that inform functioning.
Future studies would benefit from longitudinal designs, as they would provide improved information about how psychiatric and substance use disorders begin and develop over time in this population. It would also help clarify the relative impact of homelessness on the development of these disorders. In particular, it would be useful to collect data from younger youth and youth at-risk for homelessness in order to follow them over time. Although difficult, this would likely require that youth be recruited prior to becoming homeless. This could potentially be accomplished through various recruitment strategies such as working with schools, religious organizations, and community agencies to recruit youth who might be at-risk for homelessness. Recruitment of street youth, rather than those in shelters, may also increase the age range of samples. To improve the likelihood that youth will remain in the study, studies may benefit from the utilization of creative methods to maintain contact with study participants. Recent studies have begun to employ social networking technologies (e.g., cell phones, email, and Facebook) to provide information to participants and may be useful in the maintenance of long-term relationships with investigators, as it would improve our understanding of other factors that increase risk of psychiatric and substance use disorders. Finally, future studies may benefit from additional sources of data collection, as self-report may yield inaccurate results.
Ultimately, the findings from future studies would assist researchers in the development of new prevention and intervention programs. Currently, studies suggest that there are few effective academic, medical, and psychological interventions specifically designed for homeless youth [21,22]. A better understanding of the experience of homeless youth and the factors that impact their psychiatric functioning would assist in the development of future interventions so that they are appropriately targeted for this population. This would likely lead to improved utilization rates and effectiveness of the programs. It may behoove investigators to work with assistance from homeless youths themselves and those who work with the population on a regular basis.
5. Conclusions
The high rate of undiagnosed psychiatric disorders in homeless youth is an alarming observation, although not surprising, and provides clear evidence that the mental health needs of this population are significant. With the particularly high rates of substance-related disorders observed, the need for appropriate prevention and intervention approaches with this community is strong [23]. The vast majority of adults who suffer from substance abuse began using substances during adolescence, and the effects of use at that age have associations with poorer psychosocial and mental health outcomes during later life [24,25]. Regional data collected in this study highlight important information regarding how best to tailor services to increase utilization and eventual outcomes for homeless youth.

Have you broken up with your partner? How hopeful do you feel that you can get them back? Chances are that getting them back is going to be tougher than you think. Your ex spouse probably has several negative feelings for you at this moment. You have to have a way to get past these before anything good can happen.
Here are a few examples of these negative feelings:
Feeling like you weren't willing to do whatever it took to detect problems before they became big problems. In many cases the other person might have been sending you signals that something was wrong, but you chose to ignore it or you just didn't see it. When this happens it comes off like you're being insensitive or that you don't really care. The other person will begin to believe you don't value the relationship as much as they do and as a result you don't value them as much as they might value you.
Feeling like they want to do something or say something to make you feel as bad as they do. This is usually the main type of feeling people have after a breakup. People are hurting and what they would love to do is say something or do something to hit the other person where it hurts. This could be telling them about things they didn't like in the relationship, telling other secrets or even making them up. The bottom line is someone who is in this state of mind isn't going to want to talk for a while until such feelings have had a chance to dissolve.
Thinking that they did something and you didn't tell them what it was. If you're the one that broke up with the other person, then they'll want to know why. If you have a good reason then their feelings might not be hurt. All they would want to know is that it's something they can work on. The last thing anyone wants to believe is that they have something about them they can't work on. If they think this way then they'll carry such feelings over into another relationship. This isn't a good thing. You have to let the other person know that if there's something bothering you about them or if it's something they did.
You might want to believe that you can get your ex back if you just sit back and let time heal the wounds, but things don't work this way. You must be willing to do whatever it takes in order to get them back. You have to rebuild trust, rebuild love, and rebuild a connection. Texting is the main mode of communication most people use these days and it's actually the one most people feel comfortable with. So it only makes sense that you would use texting as the main mode to communicate with your ex when they don't want to talk to you in person.
This is where the Text Your Ex Back program comes into play. It's a powerful program created by relationship expert Michael Fiore. In it you'll learn everything you need to do in order to use texting to rebuild your relationship and win back the affection of your lost spouse.
Can the Text Your Ex Back program really work for you?
You have to understand why this program is so powerful. It pretty much uses text in order to create different emotions in your partner. When you first break up the other person might be upset with you. You have to ease your way into things in order to melt their resistance. Don't feel like this program is about trying to trick someone to like you again. It draws on emotions and feelings that are already there. It just uses text messages as the means to do this.
No matter how much time you let go by your partner isn't going to just start talking to you again. You have much better probability of getting a text message read then trying to talk to them in person. With text messages its much easier to craft them in a way as to solicit a certain response. You're dealing with expertly crafted messages that if used the right way gives you a high chance of at least getting back on friendly terms with your ex. You get your foot back in the door and who knows where it can go from there.
If you want to give the Text Your Ex program a try, then you can check it out at textyourexbacktoday.org. Here you can get more in depth information about what it's going to teach you and why you do yourself a huge favor by using this to fight for your relationship.

Gordon, others walk a fine line after hard hits
October 11, 2012, Joe Menzer, NASCAR.com
Jimmie Johnson remembers, vaguely, how he felt the day after taking a hard hit in a Nationwide Series car when his brakes failed and he plowed into a wall during a race at Watkins Glen International. "I literally got in my truck and was going to drive to the race shop, and I got on I-77 and went north," Johnson said. "I should have gone south, and I ended up at Interstate 40 before I realized like, 'Where am I going?' And I made a phone call and drove myself to the doctor and got checked out. So, at that point, once I was on the books, I had to be cleared before I got back in the race car." "It's a tough situation to race in this sport, to be under injury and be wondering what the line is. We all have our own code for that." --BRAD KESELOWSKI For the record, and those unfamiliar with Charlotte-area highways, Johnson drove several miles in the wrong direction that day before realizing the seriousness of his condition. The I-40 exchange off I-77 is located near Statesville, N.C., more than 40 miles from downtown Charlotte. He said he's thankful that these days, NASCAR at least attempts to treat drivers with possible concussion symptoms more seriously immediately following accidents. Then again, some drivers obviously like to keep their concussion-like symptoms off the books instead of on them. It was revealed Thursday that Johnson's Hendrick Motorsports teammate, Dale Earnhardt Jr., apparently suffered two concussions within six weeks recently, yet he went untreated until visiting a doctor on his own three days after the second one was incurred. * Earnhardt Jr. reveals concussion | Caraviello: High price of silence Therein lies the rub with concussions and racers. Most times, the drivers have to admit there is a problem before it can be treated properly. After visiting neurologist Dr. Jerry Petty on Wednesday, Earnhardt was ruled out for at least the next two Sprint Cup races, beginning with Saturday night's Bank of America 500 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. "In today's world, the process after a crash and what you go through is far greater than what it's been in the past," Johnson said. "And if your symptoms are serious enough to where you can't drive, it's going to be noticeable. "Once I was cleared [after the Watkins Glen wreck], I got back in that following weekend and went racing. The symptoms went away within a day or two, and I was fine. That's the tricky think about concussions. They affect everybody differently." Brad Keselowski, the current points leader in the Chase for the Sprint Cup who last year drove for a long stretch with a broken ankle, agreed with Johnson. "First off, I'd say that I was as shocked as anyone else to hear that stuff [about Earnhardt on Thursday]. I certainly wish Dale the best, and I know he's got a lot of people saying that," Keselowski said. "It's a tough situation to race in this sport, to be under injury and be wondering what the line is. We all have our own code for that." Earnhardt said Thursday that he first suffered concussion-like symptoms after a hard hit during a Goodyear tire test on Aug. 29 at Kansas Speedway. After initially being cleared by medical personnel at the track immediately following the incident, Earnhardt did not pursue further treatment despite continuing to experience headaches. Earnhardt said he thought he was 100 percent recovered by Sunday's race at Talladega Superspeedway, only to have the symptoms return after he was involved in a last-lap wreck. When he still was suffering from headaches three days later, he went to see Dr. Petty. "I didn't know that he had headaches or any symptoms following the Kansas tire test crash," Johnson said. "I knew it was a big impact. I heard about it. I think we were at a team debrief or meeting or something and word traveled to our meeting quickly that they had a tire problem and it was a big hit. "And of course, the car came back to the shop later, and I got my eyes on it myself and knew it was a strong hit. It's something that an athlete is faced with through injury. There are some athletes and some sports that are more prone for concussions. Clearly racing is one. Hockey, football, and you get into some of those contact sports where you, as an athlete, have to know whether you're right or not. "And I think in some cases, even if you are right, you could work your way through some of these different evaluations and not say anything and just try to get better on your own." Jeff Gordon, another Hendrick Motorsports driver, bluntly admitted as much on Thursday. He said if he was suffering from headaches and thought he might be suffering from a concussion but was involved in a tight championship battle with two races left in a season, he wouldn't say anything to anybody about the pain. "Honestly, I hate to say this, but no, I wouldn't," Gordon said. "We all have to play a part in this. But if I have a shot at a championship with two races to go and my head's hurting, and I came through a wreck and I'm feeling signs of it but I'm still leading the points or I'm second in the points, I'm not going to say anything. I'm sorry. That's the competitor in me, and probably many other guys. And that's to a fault. That's not the way it should be. But I think that's something that most of us would do, and I think that's what gets a lot of us in trouble." At the same time, Gordon insisted that he always has thought about playing it safe during his long career. "I was pretty fortunate that I came into this sport, No. 1, with Hendrick Motorsports -- but also because Ray Evernham was my crew chief. Ray Evernham had some experience with some pretty horrible crashes in his career and some pretty major concussions that really ended his driving career," said Gordon, who is in his 20th season of driving the No. 24 Chevrolet full-time in the Cup Series. "I think because of those combinations, we as a team put a lot of effort into safety. ... It's so much safer now, but that doesn't mean it's still not a dangerous sport. We've made a lot of things better, but I think Junior is a reminder that these head injuries -- and we've seen this in other sports -- but they are very, very serious and not to be taken lightly."

Joint Custody & Passports for Children
Every U.S. citizen must have a passport to travel outside the United States and back. Even border crossings into Canada and Mexico, which once could be done routinely without a passport, now require a passport or passport card, a cheaper option good only for North American border crossings. The passport application process is relatively simple for most Americans, but for minor children ages 15 and under, whose parents are divorced and sharing custody, the process is more complicated.
Family Event
The law calls for anyone under age 16 to apply in person with her parents and sign the DS-11, passport form, in front of an official at a passport acceptance facility, usually a post office or court clerk. Children aged 16 and 17 can appear with just a single parent.
Contingency Plan
If both parents cannot appear, the absent parent must fill out a notarized consent form, DS-3053, signed no more than three months before the application date. In certain circumstances, for example if one parent cannot be located, the other parent can seek a court order to allow a child to travel overseas without the permission of an ex-spouse who shares joint custody.
Plan Ahead
Parents need to provide a child's birth certificate, overseas birth record or adoption decree and court order showing custody arrangements. It is best to obtain certified copies of these documents during the divorce proceedings, in case the other parent moves away, or his whereabouts later become unknown.
Application Alerts
The U.S. Department of State maintains a database of parents who have asked to be notified if a passport application is filed for their child under the age of 18. The Children's Passport Issuance Alert Program (CPIAP) is designed to combat international abductions where one parent takes a child out of the country without permission of the other parent. Once notified, the parent who registered the child's name has 30 days to consent or object to the passport application.
Track an Application
Passport applications can be tracked at the state department's application website, which also posts estimated processing times. Since applying for a childâ??s passport can be a lengthy process, parents should allow extra time for gathering documents, locating the other parent and getting her permission.
Parents who have fallen behind on child support payments may run into difficulties in the application process for their own passports. The state department maintains links with state agencies tracking arrears, and a parent owing more than $2,500 in support payments is not eligible for a passport.

How can you say tottenham was awesome and lyon rubbish????
BTW Umtiti for goal of the year
Damn!No votes for the best free kick of the year??????Traoré scored two of the most beautiful goals of the season and nobody cares...sad...
Henry is a fu**ing legend!
How can you say that England was great???How many time did Welbeck touched the ball????How many opportunities?
Schweinsteiger for those who know football!
What a goal from Bastos.What a game!But in the end, i'm very disappointed from the late goal of Hoareau. We should have won this game.We need points!
Bunn was awesome btw
Yakubu was so bad!He even prevent Dunn from scoring....
I'm pretty sure it's dominique strauss kahn who is beyound this...IT'S GOT TO BE HIM!
Why can't you think of dreams come true?
In 2004, I'm pretty sure only a 2-2 between Sweden and Danemark could eliminate Italy. There was 2-2. Conspiracy??
So funny to see people claiming lyon cheated or payed the game.
Did you see the entire game?Did you see the hope, the desire in the eyes of the players of Lyon?...
So good to see Licha back
Ahah such arrogance....rememeber two years ago?Ramos who said you'd win 3-0....You'll never learn from your past,don't you?
Oh god.I hate so much Rami. He must be the dumbest footballer alive.
Dortmund was lucky on this game. Olympiakos was great with free-kicks and corners.They should have score.
Under the crossbar?
What a goal!so unexpecting!
The penalty is a scandal!
It looked at first just as if the swiss were afraid to score but,my god, what a great sense of play they have!
It's surprising to see Madrid playing as a team now.

I think I've finally made a mead I like!
Just put it into bottles today....hasn't even aged....and it is still goooood!
What's your recipe? That stuff looks pretty dark.
Honey, water, yeast...high enough OG to produce 14% alcohol...ferment to completion, rack onto a mesh bag with 1lb+ pureed blueberries/gallon of mead (actually was about 7lbs or blueberries and 5 gallons of mead) and about 75ppm sulfite, after 4 weeks rack off of blueberries...allow to settle for 6 weeks...bottle.
In the past I've skipped the sulfite. The blueberry juice would ferment and the resulting flavor didn't agree with my palate. This batch retains much of the blueberry flavor and some sweetness. I wouldn't call it sweet but it isn't dry either.
It is still pretty raw but is not unpleasant.
What yeast?
How much honey? You know what I mean, I know you mix it based on alcohol, I have a hydrometer, but just an estimate.
Now you're taxing my brain. I have notes....OG 1.094 and 1.096. Since this mead was started as part of two different mead making workshops...and I used a 3 gallon carboy for each...then when the fermentations were completed I put them together into a single larger fermenting bucket w/blueberries + sulfite. The way I generally do it, though, is by mixing to an OG that suits. If I had to guess...for a 6 gallon fermenter, I would probably use 4 gallons of water and 4 quarts of honey...then test and adjust as needed.
To carry my entire obsession with blueberries further...yesterday I bottled 146 bottles of blueberry - honey vinegar. I told a friend....yeah I have a couple, believe it or not.....that I'd gone bananas over blueberries :)
I can work with that. After my present batch of cider, I'm going to need something else to do. Actually, I'm making far more than I'm drinking so that ought to be remedied as well.
One of life's challenges. :)
Having said that, I've never made a mead I liked....so I've always given it away...took it to parties where it becomes a novelty. Any number of folks always like it....I just never have. But this batch.....I'm thinkin' I'm going to be a little more stingy with it.
Ja. I kegged meads until about 15 years ago, and I'm still turning away people who try to crash our parties based on the stories generated :D.

Today's daily dose of inspiration comes from Michael Ostermann. His work is a mixture of vector art and surrealist imagery. Some of his work reminds me of horror flick cover art… all bad acting aside, the cover would be awesome. Very skilled illustrator/designer. Ostermann currently resides in Austria.
Moritz Resl
Moritz Resl is a graphic designer based in Vienna, Austria. A smart designer with a minimalistic style, Moritz does not pollute his work with a number of narrative imagery all sharing one composition and message. Instead, he communicates the concept of his work by creating just a single, simple image. For instance, based on this year's World Cup event, Moritz created a poster featuring an impression of a torch (edit: vuvuzela! Even better! Thanks for noticing the error guys) by combining various world continents together, all sitting in a sea of blue. Smart, well-articulated, and aesthetically sound.

Welcome to Panama Guide Mariano Rivera Gets 34th Save for 2011, Now Has 593 Career, Needs 8 To Tie Hoffman
By DON WINNER for Panama-Guide.com - Mariano Rivera, the star closing pitcher for the New York Yankees, picked up his 34th save of the 2011 Major League Baseball season in the 3-2 win over the Baltimore Orioles. With this save Rivera now has a total of 593 career saves, meaning he needs just eight more saves to tie Trevor Hoffman who retired after last season with 601 career saves, the most of any pitcher in history. There are 29 more games remaining on the Yankee's regular season schedule at this point. Rivera has been averaging one save for every 3.88 games this season - meaning that if he stays on pace Rivera could get another seven or eight saves before the end of the regular season. If the Yankees make the playoffs then he will get a few more, so there's a very good chance he will hit the 602 mark sometime this season. It's just another record for the man who already holds 17 regular season records, 13 post season records, two All Star records, and six team records. However, this is the "big one" - most career saves. When he reaches 602 Mariano Rivera will just be cementing what many already know, that he's the best closer of all time.
