Here at Baby Changing Stations, our mission is to provide the best possible baby changing table at the best possible price. We're not just business people, we're parents and grandparents also, and we stock and sell only the baby changing stations that we feel confident using for our own children.
When deciding which baby changing tables to add to our selection, we look at a number of criteria. Is the baby changing station well built and sturdy? Is it designed to hold far more weight than it will ever be required to hold? We're entrusting the safety of our babies to its construction, and we won't cut corners where they're concerned.
Is the station designed for full and complete cleaning, providing a hygienic work surface that protects from harmful bacteria? Is it constructed to prevent painful pinches and scrapes?
When you buy from us, you can rely on a selection that features only the best changing stations from the best brands at the best prices. Need help with your selection? Get in touch with us. We're only a phone call or email away. We'd love to chat. Careful, though, we've got lots of baby pictures we might want to show you!

Some things to consider when choosing a baby changing station:
[1] A baby changing table may be wall mounted, either recessed into the wall, or surface mounted.
[2] Baby changing stations can unfold either horizontally or vertically.
[3] Horizontal baby changing tables are the most frequently found style in public bathrooms, and are generally considered the easiest style to work with.
[4] Vertical changing stations are less frequently encountered and are usually installed in areas with limited available wall space. They are, however, available in a wide range of options, including recessed and surface mounted, with both plastic and stainless steel construction.
[5] Another configuration and the least frequently seen, is the oval baby station. This is generally considered a more stylish option, and is usually found in more design conscious locales. Koala Kare is one of only two manufacturers which offer an oval design.
[6] Commercial baby changing stations are typically constructed of either stainless steel or high density polyethylene plastic.
[7] Buy trusted brands whose products will provide years of reliable service. Brands like Koala Bear Kare, Brocar and American Specialties all offer quality changing stations. You'll find those and others right here at prices that are sure to please.

Facts matter
I'm a resident of "La La Land" as described by recent contributor Milton Leiker, Hays, in his comments to the HDN. And I'm also a huge admirer of Bob Hooper's frequent contributions to the HDN. I especially like Hooper's citations of authority and direction to sources for determining the accuracy and truth of his allegations, facts and written statements. And not surprising to me, living in La La Land and wanting accurate evidence at the same time, does not create any conflict in my life.
Leiker's tome discussed his opinions and thoughts about religion,disarmament, abortion/marriage, money/debt, inflation, regulation and Agenda 21. He had much to say. And he made many assertions.
However, he did not cite one reference to sources, authorities or basis in fact; merely his own current beliefs. Opinions are legitimate, but they do not constitute either facts or truth. And believing opinions and beliefs are the same as facts and truth is the basis for an ill-informed and misinformed citizen and voter.
What about the matters of accuracy and truth? When it comes to the accuracy and truth of an allegation, Bob Hooper offers evidence. And that's my point from here in "La La Land."

I'm a lucky guy. I have a buisness that I created and struggled with for many years and now it actually seems to be a for real livelyhood. I support myself by building bicycle frames.....just me in my shop with my crazy music blaring all day long, building bicycle frames. It's almost as if I got a pass on the whole growing up into an adult and getting a job thing. I'm still living as if I were and adolescent......maybe a bit more regimented but still like a teenager in a lot of regards. For this privalege I owe my customers a debt of gratitude for making my lifestyle possible. People getting in touch with me to order bikes from all over the world is still something I wonder at and don't fully comprehend. I just keep building 'em if people keep wanting 'em. That said , there are times when I'm found by a person who might not be somebody I can make happy with what I do. I figure that in most cases my website info and reputation will filter out all who might wind up regretting their decision to entrust me with the job of making their rolling dream a reality. Sometimes on the phone or even in an email I will get the sense that the person inquiring might be someone who should shop elsewhere. I have had several instances where I have had to refund a deposit or even buy a frame back from a dissatisfied client. I like to avoid these situations but sometimes I'm blindsided by a person who's motivation for the famebuider-customer relationship might be considered off the beaten path. These folks are what I would call " Psychotic". This is of course a very strong word and I can count the people who merit the description on one hand for my entire career. All the same, these few folks have taught me the most about what I should and shouldn't promise when talking about frames to anyone. About a decade ago I built a frame for a person who was very set on using some hardware on his frame that I was not familiar with. I assured him that what I normally used was superior and that I would build a better frame with what was familiar to me. This did not deter the customer....he wanted his dropouts and other fittings just so. I ordered the stuff requested and had a miserable time building the frame. The end result was not up to my normal standards but the bike was and still is a rideable racing bike. I sent the customer the frame and waited for his opinion on the work and for my payment. I got an email stating that the frame was not what he wanted and he immediately requested that I start on another one. I asked for him to send the frame back and offered to pay the shipping and refund his deposit ( I had not been paid the balance ) to which he replied angrily that I was dropping the ball in the middle of the project. I replied that I had done what he requested with the materials he specified to the best of my ability and was not going to chance having him reject another frame. He was livid but sent back the frame. I sent him his money immediatelty.....this actually impressed him. What I learned is that in rare cases there are a few folks who want the process of interaction with the builder but probably don't want the actual frame at all. What they want is for people like me to keep trying to make them happy while they keep either changing their minds or just become abusive. It's kind of a patrician-servant relationship.......they need to be catered to in ways unrelated to bicycles,riding or anything of that nature. I do not fully understand the motivation for this need and do not feel qualified to fulfill it. Not only that, I really should be building bikes for folks who will ride them , not argue about a file mark in a stainless steel dropout. Do I admit to failing these rare people ? Yes, by all means. Do I intend to get more in touch with their needs as customers ? No F-ing way. As Joe Walsh said ; " You can't argue with a sick mind ".

You should have expected those kind of customers. People with money to burn and not enough sense of control in their own lives who think they can buy the right to abuse someone else, if only for a few hours and over the phone. That said, you have the right to F-ing dropkick those punks.ReplyDelete

The State of Victoria offers a mix of cosmopolitan activities and natural escapes. Start off your getaway in Melbourne and you will soon see why the city is considered Australia's cultural capital. While in town, attend a concert or art exhibit and sample cuisine from virtually anywhere in the world.
A short drive from Melbourne, indulge some R&R at one of the Mornington Peninsula or Daylesford spas. Drive along the Great Ocean Road for panoramic seascapes and dramatic cliff formations. Do some wine tasting in the Yarra Valley. Hike in the Grampians or ski in the Victorian Alps.
Holiday rentals in Victoria are as diverse as the type of getaway you have planned. Choose from sleek condos overlooking Melbourne's skyline, oceanfront cottages on one of the peninsulas or mountain retreats close to hiking trails.
Melbourne is the sort of city that unveils itself as you discover small cafes nestled in hidden laneways, stroll along the banks of the Yarra River or sample authentic gelato on Lygon Street.
While you're in town, catch an internationally acclaimed musical at Her Majesty's Theatre, a concert by the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra or the latest exhibit at the National Gallery of Victoria. To go behind the scenes, participate in a Theatres and Exhibition tour at the Arts Centre.
You can't visit Melbourne without eating at some of the restaurants. The city is a foodie's paradise. Stroll along Southbank and take your pick of glossy dining establishments facing the river and CBD. Walk through Chinatown to sample dishes from across Asia or head to Carlton for Italian cuisine.
The bayside city of Geelong enjoys a slower pace of life. While you are here, do as the locals and venture down to the port, where you can purchase freshly caught seafood. To stretch your legs and learn about Geelong's history, stroll along the waterfront Bollard Sculpture Walk.
Take the ferry from the Bellarine Peninsula across to the Mornington Peninsula. This side of the bay consists primarily of upscale villages with numerous spas, including the famous Peninsula Hot Springs. There are beaches, trendy cafes and wineries slightly further inland.
Facing the southern tip of the Mornington Peninsula is the family-friendly holiday destination of Phillip Island, home to the renowned Penguin Parade. In the evenings, watch Australia's little blue penguins waddle onto shore after a day of fishing at sea.
The Great Ocean Road is one of the most scenic routes in the world. It winds along the Victorian coast for 243 kilometres, starting at the surfing town of Torquay.
Travellers will experience plunging cliffs, dramatic seascapes and world-class beaches. One of the landmark sites is a series of majestic limestone rock formations rising out of the ocean, known as the 12 Apostles. Other iconic stops include Loch Ard Gorge, a naturally formed beach of historic significance, and Bells Beach, one of the country's premier surfing destinations.
There are many tours - from day trips to week-long excursions - which will guide you along the Great Ocean Road.
Wine enthusiasts can organise trips to the Yarra Valley, where they will experience a fusion of art, fine wine and good food. Learn about producing wine from the families who have owned vineyards for years. There are many award winning wineries which proudly showcase their Chardonnay or Pinot Noir.
Stop at a winery for lunch or a cheese tasting, discover Aboriginal art galleries or go for a scenic journey aboard Puffing Billy, an 100-year-old train, which will take you through the valley. Not far from the Yarra Valley are the Dandenong Ranges, fraught with trails for bushwalking.
There are endless getaway options in the Victorian countryside. Fishermen and watersport enthusiasts of all kinds tend to enjoy Gippsland, as this part of Victoria is traversed by numerous waterways leading to expansive, often deserted beaches.
If you would like a spa retreat, look into Daylesford, known for its natural mineral water. During your visit, don't neglect the area's boutique wineries and restaurants offering gourmet food whipped up from local ingredients.
For an alpine escapade, head to the Victorian Alps, where you can ski in the winter and hike in the summer. Meanwhile, the Grampians provide year-round hiking and bushwalking opportunities. Adventure seekers can also go rock climbing.
There is a major international airport in Melbourne and there are several regional airports across the state. The easiest way to get around Victoria is to drive. However, the state has a comprehensive bus and train networking serving the bigger towns in most regions. The only downside to public transport is that you will likely have to depart from Melbourne no matter your destination, creating longer travel time.

Carlos Slim's Maneuvers Toward Full Takeover Of Dutch Telecom Group
AMSTERDAM – The world's richest man appears poised to fully take over a Dutch telecom group.
As its largest shareholder, Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim gave his blessing for Dutch telecom group Royal KPN NV to sell its German unit E-Plus to Spain's Telefonica after it sweetened the offer to $11.4 billion.
A statement issued by KPN Monday said that Slim's America Movil would give its "irrevocable commitment" to back the E-Plus sale.
This would leave the path open for Slim — who according to Forbes magazine is the world's richest man with a $73 billion fortune — to proceed in his quest to acquire the rest of KPN, which has major operations in the Netherlands and Belgium.
In July KPN agreed to sell E-Plus in exchange for $6.7 billion in cash and a 18 percent stake in Telefonica Deutschland, worth an estimated total of $10.4 billion. Monday's deal increases the stake KPN will receive in Telefonica Deutschland to 21 percent.
The E-Plus-Telefonica Deutschland combination, if approved by European regulators, would create a strong competitor to Germany's largest mobile operators by revenues, Deutsche Telekom and Vodafone PLC.
KPN shareholders are due to vote on that deal Oct. 2.
Analysts for ABN Amro said in a note Monday that it was "remarkable that America Movil has endorsed the E-Plus sale, because the German unit was an important pillar of its European expansion plans."
In a separate statement Monday, America Movil said it was still committed to buying KPN and clarified its plans for the Dutch company, saying it wants to strengthen the company with superior technology, better procurement and more investment.
"America Movil intends to respect the identity of KPN," the statement said. It promised to keep the KPN brand and the company's headquarters in The Hague, Netherlands.
Slim has built a stake of just under 30 percent of KPN via America Movil over the past two years. Following KPN's initial plan to sell E-Plus, Slim launched a bid to acquire the 70 percent of KPN he doesn't already own for 2.40 euros per share, or 7.2 billion euros. At the time, Slim didn't disclose whether he would support or oppose the E-Plus sale, and many interpreted the move as a hostile takeover bid and a way to block the Telefonica deal.
Movil said it would "investigate expansion investments that will differentiate KPN as a leading telecom service provider in its home markets." It added that if fewer than 95 percent of KPN shareholders tender shares to its offer, it will maintain KPN's Dutch stock market listing and guarantee minority shareholders' rights.
KPN's boards have yet to issue an opinion on Movil's offer but analysts said Monday's statement from the Mexican company addressed several concerns raised by the KPN Foundation — a company institution common in the Netherlands which has the power to issue extra shares to thwart unwanted takeovers.
Shares in KPN were trading at 2.33 euros Monday, slightly under Movil's offer price.

The true gearhead shall never rest. Even on an early autumn stroll by Lake Geneva, six exquisite exhaust pipes are ready to corrupt the soul and the credit rating.
The big bike is sitting pretty between Yamaha scooters and city bicycles and it takes a few seconds for a sporadic connoisseur of motorcycles to register the unlikely find. For this late 70s touring bike parked on Rue de Rive in downtown Geneva is none other than the Honda CBX, the original hyperbike from 1978. The engine, a—deep breath now—1047 cc, 24-valve, twin-cam air-cooled inline six with a carburator for every cylinder, should clarify things:
There is confusion, though. For if you peek at the plaque, the cycle is marked CB1.
Which is, according to Wikipedia, "a small and light naked sportsbike with a straight four 399 cc engine." What we see is obviously not small, not light and definitely not equipped with a straight four, so I turn to my friend and ex-colleague Zsolt Csikós, an encyclopedia of all things Japanese and all things motorcycle:
If that's not a CBX1000, a computer does not have bits in it. The CB–1 is delta box-framed, helter-skelter-looking, semi-modern sports bike. There was but a single model of the CBX1000 and this example is original to the last detail, except for the dual horns, because it came with one from the factory. It is an unrideable, wonderful mastodon. Did you hear it go?
I did not. But others have. And would you listen to that noise!
To continue further would be in vain as none other than LJK Setright, the high priest of motoring journalism has written about the CBX, in a rare piece which is actually online, from the February 1980 issue of Cycle Guide:
You will remember the subaltern who, asked the place of cavalry in war, described its function as "lending tone to what would otherwise be a vulgar brawl". The CBX does the same for motorcycling, with that effortless superiority which is the mark of the true aristocrat.
Read the rest at The International CBX Owners Association's homepage and please don't go searching on YouTube for more examples of the CBX's noise. I have. And I now feel quite ready to plunge into maelströms of debt to hear it every day.

A Conversation with Angry Lane's Ben Barras
We first heard about custom motorcycle manufacturer kirkland dui attorney shortly after they launched their motorcycle and fashion retail shop in Hong Kong. As the only ones doing custom bikes of all types as a full lifestyle brand, they've gained quite a cult following among locals and expats alike. We recently had the opportunity to ask co-founder Ben Barras a few questions regarding his passionate undertaking. Take a look below to find out how a few Europeans ended up opening a custom bike and fashion shop in downtown Hong Kong.
How did the idea come about to open a custom bike shop as a full lifestyle brand in Hong Kong?
My brother Guillaume (G) and I have been distributors of motorcycle parts from the Japanese company Easyriders since 2009 and James Dixon, our partner, contacted us for his bike project back in mid 2011. G and I have been in the fashion and graphic design industries for more than 10 years – known as the Barras Brothers – and have always wanted to set up a lifestyle shop/workshop/brand around custom motorcycles.
We talked to James about this idea and he shared the same passion, so we started working on a plan that gave birth to Angry Lane. People's perception of motorcyclists has changed a lot in the past few years – it's no longer restricted to these big bearded bikers covered in tattoos or speed freaks fully geared. We come from a surfing/windsurfing/skating/ snowboarding background so riding a bike is more or less about that same feeling of freedom.
So why Hong Kong? Because it's where we've lived for years; it's also where all the factories are and is the door to the biggest market in the world – China.
How do the Western bikes you guys sell fit into the Eastern landscape?
Hong Kong has always followed Japanese trends so the country started to become aware of the custom motorcycle culture through brands like Neighborhood (which get its inspiration from motorcycles). There is also a local club of guys passionate about the British Cafe Racer culture. They get together, clad in studded leather jackets and aviator caps, and ride with each other like in the UK during the 60s and 70s.
Taiwan is right behind Japan in terms of trends and culture; they have plenty of really good builders, painters, and pinstrippers. Hong Kongers live on a tiny space so they travel a lot and see what's happening out there.
The other crowd is the expats. Lots of them ride Italian motorcycles although tailor-made bikes are becoming more and more popular. We get a lot of attention from them as well as through local papers who want to find cool new things happening out here most people might not know about.
What kind of custom bikes can we expect from Angry Lane? Bobbers, cafe racers, speed bikes?
We are able to work on any bike really. We team up with a British mechanical engineer and fabricator who also races in the Mainland so speed bikes are no mystery to him. Our biggest interest is still more the Cafe Racer and Street Tracker based on Yamaha SRs or Kawa W650s.
Personally, I've always been crazy about bobbers and the Japanese style with nothing besides the absolute necessities, narrow, and easy to maneuver in heavy traffic. My ride is a Daytona Triumph from 1973 – we will celebrate its 40th birthday soon! My brother G rides a HD 883cc which has been modified to a 1450cc as a chopper. Our partner James has an SR Cafe – that's how we met – and our mechanic rides a Ducati.
We've also been working on our first collection of tees along with much more which should be available soon!
Are most of your customers based in Hong Kong or in neighboring countries?
Most of our customers right now are expats based in Hong Kong. Locals are just now discovering the idea of riding a personally customized bike, so it looks like we're in the right place at the right time! The neighboring countries have also started paying attention to us here as the general belief is that we are far behind them which is simply not true. Just an hour ago I got a phone call from the guys at Taiwanese magazine FreeBikers who had seen the Black Needle Triumph and were very interested in knowing the story behind it.
Lastly, where is your favorite place to ride in both Hong Kong and the world at large?
In Hong Kong it's more about going from the center to the beach as the city is very small and crowded. It's best to go during the night and head toward the New Territories which are close to the border – there are a few good roads there. Apart from that, we are French and British so I would say riding in our own countries and Europe in general is pretty cool!

I'm exhausted.
The good kind of exhausted.
The I've-been-creative, been-with-people-I-adore, been-burning-the-candle-to-fit-it-all-in kind of exhausted.
Earlier today when I went to Starbucks for a needed afternoon coffee, there was a light rain and a chill in the air.
And puddles.
I like puddles. Not for splashing through or playing in.
I just like looking at them, into them.
There's something magic to me about catching the sky reflected back to me from the ground.
Or, maybe I'm just exhausted...

Conley and Barrios Team Up to End Violence Against Women
December 04, 2012
DECEMBER 4, 2012 Contact: Toni Troop
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Phone: 617-557-1807
On Thursday, December 6, 2012, Jane Doe Inc. will launch the 6th Annual Massachusetts White Ribbon Day Campaign to engage men in the solution of ending violence against women. Suffolk County District Attorney Daniel F. Conley and former State Senator and present American Red Cross of Eastern Massachusetts CEO Jarrett Barrios will serve as Co-Chairs of this year's campaign. Governor Deval Patrick will once again serve as Honorary Chair of the campaign.
Mary R. Lauby, Executive Director of Jane Doe Inc. (JDI), explains the significance of this date and goals for the campaign, "December 6th marks the 23rd anniversary of the Montreal Massacre and the 21st anniversary of the international White Ribbon Campaign. Each year we remember these tragic and unnecessary deaths and recommit ourselves to eradicating the root causes that foster and perpetuate violence against women. We cannot end sexual and domestic violence without a broader social transformation that supports equality and justice."
JDI adopted the White Ribbon Campaign because while sexual and domestic violence affect everyone, men have a unique role to play in ending male violence against women. Lauby adds, "Men like District Attorney Conley and Mr. Barrios are proof that men are expanding their understanding of what it means to be a man to include a commitment to healthy masculinity and non-violence."
JDI's Massachusetts White Ribbon Day Campaign aims to engage men who are ready to help take an active role in making a difference in their communities, their workplaces, and their families. Men are asked to help shift the conversation from being the protectors of women to engaging other men in ending men's violence against women. This year's co-chairs have demonstrated in their professional careers that protecting public safety also requires being prepared and working to prevent harm.
Suffolk County District Attorney Daniel F. Conley says, "If we want to end violence against women, it makes sense to start with men and boys. JDI's White Ribbon Day Campaign is a chance to do just that. As a father, as a coach, and as DA, I want male leaders of every age to know the difference between strength and violence and between commitment and control. The message of mutual respect in every relationship is one I look forward to sharing in Boston, Suffolk County, and beyond."
Jarrett Barrios says, ""When I led the Senate Public Safety Committee, I worked to make the laws protect survivors of sexual and domestic violence. Now, I head of one of Massachusetts' largest humanitarian organizations that provides food, shelter and material aid to victims of violence and disaster. Then, as now, I worked hard to protect the vulnerable, and believe that the most powerful antidote for violence is education. White Ribbon Day is an unparalleled opportunity to raise the bar on the public's understanding of violence against women, and their engagement in changing these cycles of violence."
Since the campaign began, nearly 500 men have signed on as White Ribbon Day Ambassadors and 65 groups have signed on as campaign affiliates. Craig Norberg-Bohm, the Massachusetts White Day Ribbon Campaign Coordinator, finds inspiration in the ways men are responding to this call, "Men are thirsty for ways to be part of the solution in ending the violence that affects them and the women and men in their lives. This is an opportunity for men to step up in a positive way."
On the first Thursday of March, JDI hosts a statewide Massachusetts White Ribbon Day as the centerpiece of the campaign. Between now and March 7, 2013, JDI will engage its members and White Ribbon Day Affiliates to reach men across the Commonwealth to take the White Ribbon Day Pledge and join this campaign.
Background on The White Ribbon Campaign:
The Montreal Massacre took place on December 6, 1989, at 4:00 PM when, a 25 year old man who claimed that he was "fighting feminism" opened fire on the campus of École Polytechnique in Montreal, Quebec. In just under 20 minutes, the perpetrator shot 28 people. In total, 14 women were killed and 14 others were shot (including 4 men) before the perpetrator turned the gun on himself. Two years later the international White Ribbon Campaign was created to urge men to pledge not to be silent, condone or commit violence against women. Today, the White Ribbon Campaign takes place in over 60 countries.

Jeff: That isn't very nice!!!!!creamY : I thought someone who was losing would ask me this. Well, i'm have you know that I am very insulted!!!!! Not only do i pick my favorite but i have my brother, 3 sisters, and my friend, help me decide the winner. I'll have you know that for this challenge Ian was the only who actually used COLOR, and many other people used the same llines and smileys as others. If you must result to accusing me of cheating then that tells me alot about who you really are. Plus, if you thought i was cheating don't you think i would make myself win? I just can't help it if everyone agrees that Ian is the most creative. Maybe when it comes down to pure intelligence you OR someone else might win. So now you know how i pick my winners- and if you wanted to know a little bit more: my families votes count more then mine do. This wasn't meant to be some un-fair game. I can't believe that i'm hearing this from YOU, of all people *8.p.s. i am very dissapointed! |(

Antigua Says It's Going To Start Ignoring US Copyrights (For Real This Time)
from the no,-really,-really,-really dept
Of course, when Antigua won the final decision in December, allowing the country to ignore US intellectual property rights, the US government and the entertainment industry quickly warned Antigua not to follow through on those plans -- but the US government still won't shift in its position on the matter. Thus, Antigua is agitating to get this show on the road. While it first needs to get one last permission slip from the WTO, once that's in place, it can start ignoring the copyright on American movies and music. Of course, while some are suggesting that it may make sense for The Pirate Bay to move to Antigua, that's not accurate. After all, the WTO has said that Antigua can only violate $21 million worth of intellectual property, and with the way the entertainment industry counts damages, that's like half an album or so.
In fact, that seems to be exactly the angle that the entertainment industry is taking in this fight. An MPAA letter warning: "The proposed retaliation would be impossible to manage. The real and resulting economic harm would vastly exceed any amount the (WTO) might approve, even the grossly exaggerated amount ($3.4 billion) for which Antigua seeks approval, plus the economic harm would extend to other WTO members."

The Mets, loaded with pitching questions, might not be the big players in the free agent market we all anticipate them to be. Therefore, if they are serious about considering Parnell for the rotation, it's important they get some idea about him now.
As of now, the Mets have three givens in their rotation for next season: Johan Santana, Mike Pelfrey, and, like it or not, Oliver Perez. Let's face it, Perez's performance the other night bought him the goodwill needed to keep sending him out there. The Mets would like to count on John Maine, but the would have liked to have counted on him this season, too. Livan Hernandez has pitched will in half his starts. The other half, not so much.
Parnell will have a 70-pitch ceiling, which might not take him through the fifth inning. However, this is just like spring training. He'll get ten more pitches or another inning the next time.
Parnell had been 2–3 with a 3.74 ERA in 45 2/3 innings, with 38 strikeouts. Parnell, a starter in the minors, has pitched well out of the bullpen, but his heart remains as a starter.
As a reliever, Parnell was able to get by on his 95 mph. fastball, but as a starter he'll need to rely more on his slider, which is pretty good, and a splitter, which isn't as refined.
Here's the line-up behind Parnell:
Angel Pagan, CF
Alex Cora, SS
David Wright, 3B
Daniel Murphy, 1B
Jeff Francoeur, RF
Cory Sullivan, LF
Fernando Tatis, 2B
Brian Schneider, C
Bobby Parnell, RP
NOTEBOOK: John Maine will try to play catch on Monday. … Luis Castillo might be available tomorrow. … Gary Sheffield is still bothered by a sore hamstring.

The Toyota Etios Concept joins the Honda New Small Concept at the Delhi Auto Expo as yet another fun-sized car for emerging markets. Their trick to make it look bigger? Tiny dancing Indian models.
Toyota may call this a concept, but it's close to production and will go on sale in India later this year where its primary competition will be vehicles like the Skoda Fabia and Maruti/Suzuki Swift. With an expected price tag of around $10,000 it's four times more expensive than a Tata Nano but also powered by an engine with twice the number of cylinders.
In addition to India, Toyota plans to offer the Etios in Russia and South America.

hiv transmission through bath water
Jan 21, 2014
Hi there, if two women shared bath water and one woman may be hiv positive is the a risk to the other person? Many thanks
Response from Ms. Southall
Hi You cannot get HIV this way. HIV transmission can only occur when there is a direct and prolonged exposure to body fluids, semen, vaginal fluid, blood or mother to child through breast feeding. This most commonly occurs through unprotected vaginal or anal sex and sharing of needles. Casual contact, sharing utensils, drinking after someone, etc are not way for HIV transmission to occur. If you go to this link HIV101 it will take you to our page that talks about the ways in which HIV is and is not transmitted. Sharing bath water is not a way for transmission to occur.
Be well and stay safe, Shannon

Following a pilot of iPhone and iPad, Deutsche Bank's Chris Whitmore says there is no going back to BlackBerry:
The result "was a fantastic experience as it was easier/faster to access data (touch UI) than on the Blackberry. It was also great to only have to carry one device for personal and corporate email access."
They're using Good for messaging so users complain about the lack of background email receipt, and they do miss the BlackBerry notification light but the positives "far outweigh these issues".
Apple reported over 80% of Fortune 100 were piloting or deploying iPad, an unheard of adoption rate for new technology.
For any of you in enterprise, is iOS an option yet?

Create custom lighting and special effects to suit your unique gaming style. Apply 20 different colors to 10 different zones for up to 10,240 billion color combinations.
- Themes: Create your own custom lighting and special effects for a truly unique and personalized look. AlienFX lets you create, edit and save your own custom themes. Or select from several preset themes already available on Alienware systems.
- Lighting effects and programmable events: Your choices are endless with a palette of 20 colors and an array of lighting zones to apply them to.

Even set the zones to flash and alert you in the case of practically any system event, like getting an email or a message from a friend.
- AlienFX-enabled games: We've been working closely with game developers for years to incorporate interactive AlienFX lighting for over 55 games. Special lighting effects can be based on health levels, for example, like green morphing to red when your health is reduced. They can also be based on the type of in-game environment you're in. We're constantly working with game developers to get AlienFX lighting incorporated into even more games, so you get the most immersive gaming experience possible.
Launch games your way with personalized shortcuts in Game Mode, maximize performance with the new Accelerator feature, and keep an eye on resource consumption with Performance Monitoring.

It ends process trees for Windows-based applications and services that are unnecessary, giving your system a boost in speed.

- Importing and exporting profiles: The TactX macro key controls let you create and save your settings as profiles. Once you create one or more profiles, you can choose the desired profile from the import/export profiles option, based on the specific game you created the profile for.

Customize your touch pad's sensitivity to prevent accidental contact or modify "tap and drag" functions and horizontal scrolling with just the brush of your finger.
- Tapping: Customize your tapping setting to either enable "tap and drag" or "locking drags", or disable tapping gestures completely. This menu also gives you the option to disable the touch pad automatically whenever an external USB mouse is plugged into the system.
- Sensitivity: The sensitivity controls let you customize the touch pad's sensitivity to a lighter or heavier touch according to your personal preference. Decrease the touch pad's sensitivity to the palm of your hand so that it ignores or is less sensitive to your palm's contact with the touch pad.
- Virtual scrolling: AlienTouch provides yet another level of touch pad customization by giving you gesture scrolling options. Enable vertical and horizontal scrolling gestures, and then customize the size of the vertical and horizontal scrolling regions to a setting that works best for you.
Access your system's power-management controls so you can decide when you need maximum performance or when to scale back for more everyday programs.
- Quick settings: Get easy access to preset power options like high performance, balanced or power saving modes. Quick settings is an easy interface to fine-tune those settings.
- Advanced settings: AlienFusion's advanced settings mode gives you control over how you want individual components in your system to behave while running on specific power modes — like adjusting the behavior of your wireless adapter or graphics processor.
- Custom power plans: Create unlimited power plans to suit every different need. Optimize gameplay for any specific online game you play, then save and modify your custom power plan in the AlienFusion.

The crowd of 3,709 looked on as the Bucs came back from a 36-33 deficit at the intermission to outscore Radford 38-15 and hold the Highlanders to just 38 percent shooting for the game. ETSU was led by four players in double figures, including a game-high 16 points from freshman guard Mike Smith (Vandalia, Mo.), 13 from junior forward Andrew Reed (Port Richey, Fla.), 12 from sophomore guard Courtney Pigram (Memphis), and 11 from senior forward Eryk Thomas (Fremont, Calif.).
"We're starting to figure it out," said ETSU head coach Murry Bartow, whose team improved to 8-5 on the season, while Radford dropped to 5-8. "The biggest thing is we're defending better. They came into this game shooting 48 percent for the season, so I definitely think holding them to 51 points and 38 percent shooting says something about our effort on that end of the floor.
"We didn't have a lot of that kind of play the past couple of years, so it's good to see. This was a good win for us."
It was a game of offensive runs early on, with the Bucs taking a 23-14 lead midway through the first half only to see Radford outscore them 22-10 the rest of the way to take a three-point lead at the break. In the second half, the Bucs wasted little time starting another run, blitzing out of the gates with a 15-2 burst of their own to lead 48-38 with just over 11 minutes. During that nine-minute stretch, the Bucs held Radford to just two points.
Radford did manage to cut the lead to six at 48-42, but from there a jumper by Reed and a monstrous lob dunk to Thomas made it 52-42. The Bucs never looked back, ultimately finishing with their 20-point win.
Thomas put together the game's best all-around effort, adding six rebounds, two assists, three blocks and three steals to go along with his 11 points. Senior forward Brad Nuckles (Council,
For Radford, Amir Johnson led the way with 13 points, while Chris Oliver and Reggie McIntyre added 12 and 10 points, respectively. The Highlanders managed just three assists in the game.
The Bucs return to action in their final non-conference game of the season Dec. 30 at
