Despite a benign public perception, marijuana use disorders represent a significant public health problem. The development of safe and effective pharmacotherapies for marijuana dependence is an important unmet public health need. Quetiapine, an effective atypical antipsychotic that acts by blocking serotonin type 2A, dopamine type 2, histamine type 1, and adrenergic receptors, is a promising treatment for substance use disorders. In animal models, quetiapine blocks the enhancement of reward by cocaine, which is likely due to its actions on both dopamine and non-dopamine neurotransmission. Clinical studies of quetiapine have shown benefit for the treatment of alcohol and cocaine use disorders.
Conceptually, the clinically prominent effects of quetiapine, namely sedation, anxiolysis, mood stabilization and appetite stimulation, are a good match for the symptoms of marijuana withdrawal. Most importantly, an open-label dose-finding study of quetiapine for the treatment of marijuana dependence conducted by our research group determined that quetiapine was well-tolerated and associated with reductions in marijuana use indicating that it is a promising agent deserving of further study in marijuana-dependent outpatients.
The proposed research project is a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of quetiapine for the treatment of marijuana dependence over a 12-week period. All participants will receive Medical Management, a medication adherence focused psychosocial intervention that facilitates compliance with study medication and other study procedures, promotes abstinence from marijuana and other substances, and encourages mutual-support group attendance. All participants will receive voucher incentives for compliance with study visit attendance, returning study medication bottles, and completing other study procedures, with the objective of achieving a highly compliant sample. The goal of this phase II clinical trial is to build on our promising open-label pilot study results and examine the efficacy of quetiapine on participants' marijuana consumption under placebo-controlled double-blind conditions using an abstinence-initiation model, where participants will be using marijuana regularly at study entry, reduce their use, and then achieve abstinence. The specific aims of the projects are to determine whether quetiapine is superior to placebo in 1) reducing marijuana use and 2) achieving abstinence.

|Cannabis Dependence
|Drug: Quetiapine Drug: Placebo
|Phase 2
In a 12-week randomized double-blind placebo-controlled clinical trial, we will evaluate the efficacy of quetiapine for the treatment of marijuana dependence in 150 outpatients. Participants will be randomly assigned to treatment under double-blind conditions with either a fixed dosing schedule of quetiapine or placebo. All participants will receive Medical Management, a medication adherence focused psychosocial intervention that facilitates compliance with study medication and other study procedures, and promotes abstinence from marijuana and other substances. All participants will receive progressive voucher incentives for compliance with study visit attendance and completing other study procedures, with the objective of achieving a highly compliant sample.
The results of a dose-finding pilot study of quetiapine for the treatment of marijuana dependence (see Preliminary Studies) suggests that the ideal dosing for the proposed project is a single 300 mg dose every evening, achieved after a gradual three-week titration. Clinical experience with this medication for treatment of marijuana dependence indicates that a gradual upward titration of dose is advisable to maximize tolerability and that morning dosing was poorly tolerated. Quetiapine (immediate release formulation) will be administered in 25 and 100 mg capsules; placebo capsules will appear identical to the quetiapine capsules. Participants in both treatment arms will take the same number of pills on the same schedule. Study medication will be dispensed on a weekly basis starting with the baseline visit. Quetiapine will be titrated over a three-week period to the target dose of 300 mg or the maximum tolerated dose. The research psychiatrist will make dose reductions for tolerability if necessary.

The Pratt Community College men's basketball team needed a win against Seward County Saturday night at the Dennis Lesh Sports Arena if they were going to move up in the conference standings. That's just what they got, handing the visiting Saints an 85-75 defeat.
The Pratt Community College men's basketball team needed a win against Seward County Saturday night at the Dennis Lesh Sports Arena if they were going to move up in the conference standings. That's just what they got, handing the visiting Saints an 85-75 defeat. The Beavers used a balanced scoring effort with hot shooting, a superior effort on the glass, and a better exhibition of team basketball to prevail against visiting Seward. Shooting 59% from the floor, including 4/9 from long range, Pratt was able to forge a big lead in the first half against the Saints, who were the opposite of hot in their shooting. Just 8/30 (26%) of the Seward shots found the mark before intermission. As a result, Pratt found itself up 43-27 at the break. After halftime, the roles were reversed, as Seward's shots began to rattle in (40%) and the Beavers found themselves cooling off (32%). However, PCC was far enough ahead that even though the Saints closed the gap somewhat, the Beavers were still in control of the game as time wound down. The final three minutes of the game became a free throw extravaganza as Seward used no offensive tactic other than to slash toward the bucket and hope for a foul, while on the defensive end, they had nothing to lose by hacking the Beavers to ribbons. So they did. The final three minutes of the game took literally 30 minutes to play as attendees at Dennis Lesh were treated to 32 Pratt free throws and 31 Seward free throws- IN THE SECOND HALF ALONE. For the game, there were a combined 82 free throws attempted by the two squads. EIGHTY-TWO! Yeah, boy, that was fun. Luckily, PCC made 78% of their attempts. 32 points of their 85 came from the charity stripe on the evening. With Pratt sinking most of their freebies, Seward was unable to get any closer than 10 points. So despite prolonging the game with a free-throw-a-thon, the Saints were able to do no more than absorb an 85-75 loss at the hands of the Beavers. Other factors in the Beaver win were a 43-35 margin on the glass for PCC, and PCC had 17 assists to just 8 for Seward. (The Saints didn't really seem to enjoy passing the ball to one another.) Pratt also dominated in points-off-the–bench, their superior depth allowing them to post a 29-5 margin in that area. Five players were in double figures for PCC in a balanced attack. Kevin Allen, Robert Davis, DeShun Roberts and Thomas Tshikaya each had 13 to share high-point honors for the Beavers. Also in double figures was Taylor Schieber with 11. Kevin Allen had a double-double as he also grabbed 10 caroms. Thomas Tshikaya added 8 and DeShun Roberts 6. With the victory, Pratt moves into a second place tie in the conference with the Sewards at 5-2. They will begin their second time through the Jayhawk West with a trip to Cloud County on Wednesday. PCCM 43 42 85 Seward 27 48 75 Dobbins 2, Flynn 9, Kevin Allen 13, Holden 3, Robert Davis 13, Seales 8, DeShun Roberts 13, Taylor Schieber 11, Thomas Tshikaya 13

That's what makes this team worse than the 2006 team, which went 8-8 and didn't make the playoffs. At least they didn't loose every single game in the final minute(s)/second(s).

Space tourism, recreational space travel, either on established government-owned vehicles such as the Russian Soyuz and the International Space Station (ISS) or on a growing number of vehicles fielded by private companies. Since the flight of the world's first space tourist, American businessman Dennis Tito, on April 28, 2001, space tourism has gained new prominence as more suborbital and orbital tourism opportunities have become available.
Orbital space tourism
The advent of space tourism occurred at the end of the 1990s with a deal between the Russian company MirCorp and the American company Space Adventures Ltd. MirCorp was a private venture in charge of the space station Mir. To generate income for maintenance of the aging space station, MirCorp decided to sell a trip to Mir, and Tito became its first paying passenger. However, before Tito could make his trip, the decision was made to deorbit Mir, and—after the intervention of Space Adventures Ltd.—the mission was diverted to the ISS. Tito, who paid $20 million for his flight on the Russian spacecraft Soyuz TM-32, spent seven days on board the ISS and is considered the world's first space tourist. However, given the arduous training required for his mission, Tito objected to the use of the word tourist, and since his flight the term spaceflight participant has been more often used to distinguish commercial space travelers from career astronauts.
Orbital space tourism continued to grow following Tito's mission, with flights to the ISS by South African computer millionaire Mark Shuttleworth in 2002 and American businessman Gregory Olsen in 2005. These travelers were followed by Iranian-born American entrepreneur Anousheh Ansari, who became the fourth spaceflight participant and the first female fee-paying space traveler when she visited the ISS in September 2006. The following year American billionaire Charles Simonyi joined the ranks of spaceflight participants when he shared a ride with two cosmonauts on board Soyuz TMA-10 for a 10-day stay on the ISS. The sixth spaceflight participant, American video game developer Richard Garriott, was launched in October 2008. In making his flight, Garriott became the first second-generation American in space, since his father, Owen Garriott, was a former astronaut. (Cosmonauts Aleksandr Volkov and his son Sergey were the first father-and-son space travelers. Sergey Volkov was on the ISS when Garriott arrived.) Since 2007 Space Adventures has offered a spaceflight around the Moon on a Soyuz spacecraft for a fee of $100 million.
Suborbital space tourism
Although the orbital space tourism industry garnered much media attention following Tito's flight, other companies were also hard at work trying to make space tourism a profitable proposition by developing suborbital vehicles designed to take passengers to an altitude of 100 km (62 miles). In addition to the goal of making space tourism commercially viable, the companies were competing for the Ansari X Prize, a $10 million reward offered by the X Prize Foundation to the first nongovernmental organization to launch a reusable manned spacecraft into space twice within two weeks. (A portion of the prize money was donated by Anousheh Ansari and her brother-in-law, Iranian-born American entrepreneur Amir Ansari.) On Oct. 4, 2004, SpaceShipOne, funded by Virgin Galactic and designed by American engineer Burt Rutan of Scaled Composites, won the X Prize and, in doing so, ushered in a new era of commercial manned spaceflight and space tourism.
In 2004 the U.S. Commercial Space Launch Amendments Act (CSLAA) provided guidelines for regulating the safety of commercial human spaceflight in the United States under the auspices of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Under the CSLAA, FAA representatives will attend every launch, evaluate every landing, and work alongside the space tourism operators; however, the FAA will not be permitted to impose any safety regulations until 2012 unless there is a serious incident. The guidelines require space tourism operators to inform spaceflight participants in writing about the risks of launch and reentry and about the safety record of the launch vehicle. The CSLAA guidelines also require spaceflight participants to provide informed consent to participate in launch and reentry.
At this early stage in the development of the suborbital space tourism industry, it is difficult for the FAA to control how companies design their vehicles or to assess the safety of launching spaceflight participants into space. Despite safety concerns, Virgin Galactic sold more than 300 seats at $200,000 each for its suborbital space tourism flights, which are scheduled to commence in 2015. Carrying Virgin Galactic's spaceflight participants into space will be SpaceShipTwo, which will be launched from a permanent spaceport near Upham, N.M.
Virgin Galactic is not alone in its interest in space tourism, an industry that may prove to be especially lucrative in the 21st century. For example, Astrium, a subsidiary of European aerospace giant European Aeronautic Defence and Space Company, announced its own space tourism project in June 2007. The Astrium project is the first entry into space tourism by a major aerospace contractor and features a rocket plane with a large wingspan and a pair of canards. Development of the rocket plane commenced in 2008. The ticket price of $250,000 will include a round-trip to the spaceport, spaceflight participant training, luxury resort accommodation, and a thrilling Mach 3 ride into space. Competing with Virgin Galactic and Astrium is XCOR Aerospace, a California company that in 2008 unveiled the Lynx, a suborbital spaceship that is scheduled to provide front-seat rides into space in 2015. In Texas, Blue Origin, a privately funded aerospace company set up by Amazon.com founder Jeff Bezos, has developed its New Shepard spacecraft (named for American astronaut Alan Shepard). With its bullet-shaped fuselage, New Shepard is designed to take off and land vertically, in contrast to the conventional runway takeoff and landing of the Astrium and XCOR rocket planes and the mother-ship deployment of SpaceShipTwo.
The efforts of Virgin Galactic, Astrium, XCOR, and Blue Origin represent just some of the developing space fleets projected to ferry tourists to and from space. Having overcome daunting technical challenges and significant financial constraints, these companies are on the threshold of opening the frontier of space to a much greater section of the population. As the space tourism industry evolves, the ranks of spaceflight participants will grow, and suborbital and orbital flights will inevitably give way to lunar excursions and trips to Mars and beyond, by which time space tourism will be operating as a full-fledged industry capable of truly opening the frontier of space.

Is thread for nose hair only, or is okay to discuss all pubes in general? I'm asking for a friend.
wait until you get older. I have to harvest mine weekly. My nose looks like Chris Cornell's hair circa 91'
my chest hair has grown into the shape of a phoenix.
I'm waiting for the right amount of cocaine to show up...so i can light it on fire, and release it into the northern skies.
I'm going to petition for an Old Bastard Forum. Specifically for the gout and nose hair threads.
Just a stab, but you are lacking in the female companionship department these days.

Great news for game lovers! You can finally save Princess Peach with the new Super Mario Run game via your iPhone, coming at the end of this year.
Super Mario, is a legendary game. For those who were young in the late 80s and 90s, it is something more than a game. It is full of memories, battles with friends, and warnings from parents that we should stop playing and go to sleep as soon as possible. However, the mission of saving the princess and collecting coins was more important than a good nights rest.
Since Mario was created by Shigeru Miyamoto, who designed him for Nintendo, the iconic character has had many missions to complete and captured the attention of billions of people from all around the world. After years of journies for Mario, you finally will be able to play on your iPhone, iPad, and the other Apple mobile devices by the end of the year.
iPhone 7 unveiling event in San Francisco. Japanese video game designer, Miyamoto, took the stage after Apple CEO Tim Cook and gave the amazing news: Super Mario Run is going to be available very soon.As Miyamoto says, Super Mario Run is designed to be played with one hand, which is great and even allows you to play when youre traveling in a bus standing up. The design is similar to the old games; you tap to jump, and as long as you tap, Mario jumps higher. Collecting coins and surviving in the Mushroom Kingdom is the same as the old versions of the game. Mario automatically runs to the right side as usual.
The price is one of the most important things about games, and the designers say that you will not have to pay to gain the levels or etc. They havent clarified the price yet, but as they say, you will pay once to download the game and the rest of it you will just enjoy your journey to save Princess Peach.
iTunes page of Apple, and you can see screenshots in there as an idea of its design. Even if you didnt play one of the Super Mario series, like Marios Time Machine, Mario Kart, Paper Mario, Mario is Missing, or Mario Tennis, Super Mario Run is ready to get you addicted and join the biggest crowd of gamers in the world. So, the only thing you need to do is wait until the end of the 2016 and enjoy the journey. Go fast!
As they define on the iTunes page, the game will be available in English, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish. It will be compatible iPhone 5s, iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s Plus, iPhone SE, iPad Air, iPad Air Wi-Fi + Cellular, iPad mini 2, iPad mini 2 Wi-Fi + Cellular, iPad Air 2, iPad Air 2 Wi-Fi + Cellular, iPad mini 3, iPad mini 3 Wi-Fi + Cellular, iPad mini 4, iPad mini 4 Wi-Fi + Cellular, 12.9-inch iPad Pro, 12.9-inch iPad Pro Wi-Fi + Cellular, 9.7-inch iPad Pro, 9.7-inch iPad Pro Wi-Fi + Cellular, and iPod touch (6th generation).
From interesting engineering.

With what seems to be the world's collective media focused on the entrance to St Mary's Hospital where they suspect The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will arrive within the coming days/weeks to deliver their child who will one day become King or Queen of The United Kingdom and Commonwealth realms; realms such as New Zealand are working hard to pass legislation into effect that will allow said child to become the heir apparent (rather than in the case of a daughter, presumptive) to the throne no matter what their gender.
Today (Tuesday, July 2nd, 2013), the New Zealand House of Representatives held the first reading of the Royal Succession Bill which eventually led to the bill being successful with 104 votes in favour.
Monarchy New Zealand (a non-governmental, non-profit organisation promoting the value of the constitutional government to New Zealand) posted short, summerised updates to their Twitter account throughout the reading, including important and interesting quotes such as:
New Zealand has a proud tradition of removing undue discrimination.
–Judith Collins, MP
Our constitutional monarchy is something we can be proud of
–Scott Simpson, MP
These law changes will flow through to the Cook Islands, Niue and Tokelau as part of the Realm of NZ
–Alfred Ngaro, MP
Video of the reading can be seen on YouTube – said video includes a speech from Simon O'Connor, ex-chair of Monarchy New Zealand along with other supporters of the bill.
The actual bill, in it's public entirety can be viewed online for reference.

How long as it been, since Week 3 or Week 4 at least that we knew Monrovia would end up in the Mid Valley Division finals? They won't admit it, and why would they? But if you saw how the Wildcats manhandled San Dimas with such ease you'll realize why Monrovia early on became the clear cut favorite to win the Mid Valley Division. Three times Monrovia faced the No. 2 team in the division, first it was Rosemead, then San Dimas and then San Marino in Rio Hondo League action. Monrovia ran circles around the 'Mead and sent the Saints limping, err, marching back to the 909 licking their wounds. It's going to be no different this year. You can argue the game might be a bit closer, but how can you when Monrovia shredded the San Dimas defense, and it's likely the Wildcats will catch more fire now with everything on the line. To be fair, the Saints are a formidable opponent. The Valle Vista League champion has the necessary weapons to pummel opponents, but it's just not going to happen against Monrovia, who are much too fast, physical and smart to have a let down now. You really think Ryan Maddox is going to let it happen? No. The thing people don't seem to realize about the Wildcats is they have not played to their full potential and they have yet to unleash their entire arsenal, but guess what? It's coming, and it'll come hard, fast and often. The Eastsiders questioned Monrovia's physicality, conceding the Wildcats did have good team speed. And what happened when San Dimas and Monrovia met? Monrovia not only proved they were fast, but proved they were the more physical team, extending a 27-10 lead at the half to a 36-17 domination. It won't come easy, but Monrovia prevails.
Top Seeds: 1. Monrovia (10-0), 2. San Dimas (9-1), 3. Azusa (9-1), 4. Arroyo (8-2).
Unseeded Sleepers: Cerritos Valley Christian, Rosemead, San Marino, Baldwin Park.

Car Deals
Truck Deals: August 2012
If you're interested in replacing your old truck with a brand new one, there are several great August deals now available. We've rounded up some of the best incentives, which aim to move out 2012 models--a big task that requires major money from automakers.
GMC Sierra
In an effort to begin clearing out their inventory of 2012 Sierra models before the 2013 model arrives, GMC is offering several large incentives throughout August. For shoppers looking to finance the truck, the automaker is advertising zero percent interest for up to 60 months on all models, from the base-level Sierra 1500 to the brawny Sierra 3500 HD. Cash back offers are also generous in August, with GMC offering $2,000 back on base-level models, $2,500 off heavy-duty Sierra variants and a whopping $4,000 off extended and crew cab models. That makes the Sierra a better deal than its mechanical twin, the full-size Chevrolet Silverado, which is available in August with cash back deals that only reach $3,500 and interest rates capped at 0.9 percent.
Honda Ridgeline
Although the supply of Honda's four-door, unibody Ridgeline pickup is dwindling, the automaker is offering a great interest rate throughout August for shoppers interested in financing the truck. According to Honda, qualified buyers looking for a 2012 Ridgeline can get interest rates as low as 0.9 percent for up to 36 months, or 1.9 percent for up to 60 months. Both offers mean buyers will have a reasonable monthly payment on the highly capable pickup, which counts among its top selling points a robust 250-horsepower V6, a 5-speed automatic transmission, all-wheel drive and a waterproof "trunk" in its bed.

Nissan Titan
Nissan's full-size Titan is available with several special offers in August. According to the automaker, shoppers interested in a 2012 Titan PRO-4X get up to $4,000 cash back--a strong offer for the off-road oriented pickup. Also available are interest rates as low as zero percent for 36 months, 0.9 percent for up to 60 months or 1.9 percent for 72 months. For shoppers who would prefer a different Titan model, the automaker's cash back offer changes to just $3,000, but its interest rate deal remains the same. Nissan is also offering a 39-month lease deal on its 2012 Titan SV, touting monthly payments of just $499 after $2,999 at signing.
Ram 1500
The full-size Ram pickup remains one of the top deals among large pickups thanks to a long list of impressive incentives. For shoppers interested in financing, parent company Chrysler is offering interest rates as low as zero percent for up to 60 months on nearly all Ram 1500 models. Buyers paying in full also get a great deal, with Chrysler touting cash back savings of up to $3,000 on most high-end Ram 1500 models and $2,500 on the rest of the lineup. And although the automaker isn't offering as many deals on its heavy-duty Ram 2500 or 3500 models, those pickups come with zero percent interest for up to 36 months or up to $2,500 cash back throughout August.
Toyota Tacoma
Toyota's midsize Tacoma pickup is available with a rare lease deal in August. According to the automaker, shoppers interested in leasing a 2012 model for 36 months can do so for just $239 per month after $2,999 at signing. And while most automakers quote lease deals on base models, Toyota says those figures apply to a well-equipped Tacoma priced at more than $27,000--far in excess of the $17,000 base price of a regular cab, 4-cylinder Tacoma. The automaker also reminds buyers that its vehicles feature Toyota Care, a maintenance plan that provides free service for two years and up to 25,000 miles.
What it means to you: Shoppers interested in great August deals on a new truck will find several big incentives now available.

Bangalore,Nov 22: Former Australian captain Steve Waugh said that Michael Clarke, who became the first batsman in Test history to score four double centuries in a year, is playing like Don Bradman and is relishing his captaincy.
"Clarke has become the first player to score four double centuries in a year. I should mention here that I can only imagine Bradman playing any better than how he (Clarke) is playing, Waugh said.
"He seems to be so relaxed in the crease with head still. Clarke has done incredibly as a captain," he added.
Clarke on Thursday smashed 224 in the second Test against the Proteas in Adelaide, a few days after hitting a double ton in the first Test.
Waugh was speaking to reporters here at the announcement of a world class Sports Academy in association with Sporting Edge, a Waugh venture at Brigade Orchards.
Asked whether Ricky Ponting should be given a chance to play after a string of poor scores, Waugh said Ponting is a great player and unfortunately missed out in his first two innings against South Africa.
"If an individual is struggling, hopefully the rest of the side carry that person and reciprocate the same when someone else is struggling. That makes a strong side," Waugh said.
Replying to a question on Virender Sehwag, who will be playing his 100th Test on Friday, Waugh said Mathew Hayden changed the style of opening batsmen and the Nawab of Najafgarh took it almost to a different level.
"Sehwag has been an incredible player, particularly on seamless wickets, but we had plans to pick him up when he toured Australia," he said.
Waugh further said that Sehwag has a very good technique which people take it for granted and do not accept.
"He has very good still head and amazing eyes to pounce on the ball," he added.
Asked how he rated Sehwag on foreign pitches, Waugh said he has been a fantastic opener and won many a games for India.
"Sehwag sets up the game and lays platform for the rest of the players to do well. He is definitely one of India's great batsman, that's for sure," he said.
Waugh felt Sehwag would be a touch nervous to play his 100th Test.
"I will not be surprised if we see Sehwag waving his bat and punching his fists in the air, celebrating a century," he said.
Waugh admitted that Tendulkar was obviously close to retirement, but at the moment "he is still a fantastic player and he is the best judge" to take a decision on calling it a day.
Asked if it is difficult for overseas players to adjust to playing conditions in India, Waugh replied in the negative.
"It should not be difficult for any overseas player to adjust in Indian condition because most of them know the conditions here as they have been playing many IPL games," he said.

Matinee vs. Orioles gets away from Yankees
NEW YORK -- The celebratory atmosphere of the Yankees' home opener had burned off by Tuesday afternoon, as three members of the Core Four returned to their respective retirements, no ceremonial first pitches requested for this matinee contest.
That is not to say that the Yankees wouldn't have liked a little more help on the mound. Ivan Nova was thumped for seven runs and left in the fourth inning as the Orioles took healthy rips, producing a 14-5 rout on Tuesday at Yankee Stadium.View Full Game Coverage
NEW YORK -- The celebratory atmosphere of the Yankees' home opener had burned off by Tuesday afternoon, as three members of the Core Four returned to their respective retirements, no ceremonial first pitches requested for this matinee contest.
That is not to say that the Yankees wouldn't have liked a little more help on the mound. Ivan Nova was thumped for seven runs and left in the fourth inning as the Orioles took healthy rips, producing a 14-5 rout on Tuesday at Yankee Stadium.View Full Game Coverage
"It wasn't a good day, so we've got to figure out what's going on," Nova said. "I don't feel so good to be pitching the way I pitched today. No excuse today; I was throwing the ball up in the zone, and you get hit that way when you throw the ball up in the zone."
Adam Jones, Delmon Young and Matt Wieters all homered for the Orioles, who collected 20 hits in the contest -- 10 coming off Nova, who lasted just 3 2/3 frames. Baltimore piled on against Vidal Nuno, who allowed seven runs in 3 1/3 innings of relief.
"Today just wasn't a good day all around," Yankees catcher Brian McCann said. "We just didn't play well."
Everyone in the Orioles' starting lineup had at least one hit and scored one run, a barrage that started with three first-inning runs. The frame took a turn when shortstop Derek Jeter couldn't get a glove on Young's potential double-play ball. A sacrifice fly by Chris Davis and Jones' two-run homer to deep center followed.
Asked to evaluate Jeter's effort on Young's ball, ruled a single, Girardi said: "He dove. He did everything he could to make a play. It seemed to get through the infield really quickly, but he did everything he could."
Nova continued to struggle. Ryan Flaherty reached on a second-inning bunt that was fielded by Francisco Cervelli, making his first career start at first base, but Nova hesitated coming off the mound and was unable to get to first base in time for the play.
"I confused myself a little bit there, and that's a play you should make," Nova said. "It's a play we work on a lot in Spring Training."
Flaherty scored on Jonathan Schoop's RBI double, and the Orioles sent nine men to the plate in the fourth, producing three more runs. That chased Nova, who walked none and struck out three in a 61-pitch outing.
"His sinker didn't have a lot of sink to it and it was up in the zone, and his curveball wasn't very sharp," Girardi said. "That's not a very good combination for him, seeing that those are his two bread-and-butter pitches. He just wasn't sharp today."
"It's my consistency," Nova said. "Maybe my release point is not the same every time, so it's something I've got to work on."
Pitching with a healthy cushion, Baltimore starter Wei-Yin Chen allowed four runs and nine hits in five innings, good for his first win of the year.
"We strung some good at-bats together and got some things done -- stayed on our feet," O's manager Buck Showalter said. "Wei-Yin toughed out five innings. He's better than that, and hopefully he will be, for us to get where we want to get."
The Yanks made a little noise at the plate, but not enough to patch over their pitching issues. Alfonso Soriano slugged a fourth-inning homer, tying Duke Snider for 50th place on the all-time home run list with 407.
Jacoby Ellsbury banged another three hits, improving to 12-for-22 since beginning the season 0-for-7, and Yangervis Solarte kept the Yankees marveling at his story with another two doubles.
Solarte is the first player since 1900 with at least six doubles through the first seven games of his career, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.
"I like what I see," Girardi said of Solarte. "He's played extremely well. He's taken advantage of this opportunity, and we'll keep running him out there."
Carlos Beltran put the Yanks on the board with a first-inning RBI single and New York got the game within three runs in the fourth, cutting the deficit to 7-4. But Nuno was hammered in long relief, allowing four runs on four hits in the sixth inning and serving up Wieters' two-run shot in the eighth.
"It's not having my tools today," Nuno said. "The guys are squaring it up. I took a rough one today, but it's not going to faze me."
With most of the stadium already spilling out to the subway platforms and the Major Deegan Expressway, Kelly Johnson hit his first Yankees home run in the eighth inning. By that point, the page was already being turned to the series finale.
"They hit the ball pretty well today," Cervelli said. "They made a lot of noise with the bats. It's one of the days when anybody who pitches is going to get hit, so we'll see you tomorrow. We're going to come fresh and play a good game."

Jan. 18, 2005
WORCESTER, Mass. - Mike D'Auria scored 17 points and collected a game-high five assists to lead hot-shooting MIT (7-7, 2-3 NEWMAC) past Clark University (4-10, 1-3), 68-58. The Engineers shot a season-best 55 percent from the floor in snapping a four-game skid against its Conference foe.
After spotting the Cougars a 7-2 lead five minutes into the game, Tech's offense began to fire on all cylinders. MIT connected on 15 of its 25 shots in the opening half. Sparked by D'Auria's two three's and eight points, the Engineers broke the game open midway through the period with a 10-point run. Another eight point run behind the low-post efforts of Mike Huhs and Hamidou Soumare stretched the MIT lead to double-figures with three minutes to play. The Engineers added to their advantage with a strong finish, securing their final points of the period as senior Adam Gibbons laid one in at the buzzer.
Coming out of the locker room with a 36-19 lead, the Cardinal and Gray continued its torrid pace from the field. After Will Mroz knocked down a three-point field goal two minutes into the half, the Engineers took their largest lead of the game at 46-25.
Clark sliced into the MIT lead with a dominating performance on the glass. The Cougars outrebounded MIT, 38-16, ensuring Tech's lowest rebounding total since Feb. 5, 2000. A 12-point run of its own enabled Clark to slide within nine points of the Engineers, but Alex Krull quickly delivered a three that pushed Tech's lead back to 12 and silenced the Worcester crowd. MIT's lead stayed in double-digits the rest of the way en route to its third straight victory over Clark dating back to last season.
Mike Huhs added 16 points on 7-of-10 shooting for the Engineers to finish just back of D'Auria's game-high 17. Seven other MIT players scored in the tilt, with Adam Gibbons and Alex Krull each contributing eight.

At one point, Poland's foreign minister said that the foreign policy of Prime Minister Donald Tusk and Defense Minister Tomasz Siemoniak were wrong and "the US-Polish alliance was worthless."
The alliance with the US is "harmful because it creates a false sense of security." He elaborated by saying that "we'll ruin our relations with Germany and France because we support the US".

(Notes: The current situation in Europe reminds one of the last days of communism, when two kinds of opinion existed side by side: public opinion and private opinion. Publicly most people praised and celebrated the communist system and the corrupt and primitive leaders that ran it.
But when the topic came up in private conversation people cursed the system and the entire state apparatus that sustained it.
This is what we see happening today at every level in the European Union. Agents of the globalist organization have more factual evidence of the extent of corruption than the average TV watcher. The general public gets shocked when finds out uncomfortable truths privately expressed by government officials as they can't detect the deceptive nature of the nonstop political theater brought to them by the controlled media twenty-four hours a day.
For sure the Polish foreign minister is not the only one with this kind of opinion. Due to the totalitarian nature of the European Union and the huge gap between public and private opinion, most politicians know that the globalist project built on lies and disinformation is destined to disintegrate.
The fact that both communism and global capitalism use similar means to maintain the system (corruption, brainwashing of the masses, control of the media and so on and so forth) mean that both systems are run by the very same forces. The privately expressed views of government officials of various kinds indicate that the globalist project is heading towards a collapse. It is just the matter of when.)

You would be surprised to know that the girls parallel to boys do care for their cars too or perhaps have a little more liking. Nevertheless, when we talk about their vehicles, the girls fancy their cars to give the impression of being feminine and chic. For that reason,...
- How does a car cigarette lighter work?
Most new cars come with accessory power port aka cigarette lighter, there is very little differences, both supply 12 volt power from the plug, it is how it transfer the power that makes it a cig lighter or a power source. Your GPS or cell phone will have a voltage reducer that will reduce the voltage from 12 volts to 5 volts for most electronic devices these days. The cig lighter plug heats up much like your counter top stove that have the coils, it does not have fires but builds up heat through supplying power to ground creating aresistantt that gets red hot. It's cheaper to buy a good lighter since a lot of people have been know to drop the cig lighter and having an accident looking for the damn thing while driving. A lighter is safer since there is no fire once your hands are off of it.
Good Luck!
- What is the wattage/amperage of the car cigarette lighter?
The wattage is actually based on the fuse. A 20 amp fuse gives 240 watts. Ohms law - Volts x Amps = Watts, a 25 amp fuse gives 300 watts, and so on. Your mp3 adapter prolly uses very little power 50 to 100 watts, so you should be ok using a lantern battery. If you wanted to pack 8 AA batteries together, you could also do it that way, however, it will drain those 8 before it would drain the one lantern battery. If you do decide to go with 8 AA or 8 c's or 8 d's, (all will give 12 volts and enough current) go to radioshack and ask for the appropriate battery holders. This will make the project neater.
- Can a faulty car cigarette lighter short circuit the item that is plugged into it ?
No, if you are using the correct adapter. The adapter should be fused as well. But, the lighter in a car has a big fuse rating (15 amps+), so there is plenty of power available to fry your ipod. Also, if the voltage regulator on the car is a bit 'iffy', then there is a good chance of voltage spikes.

The Role of Teacher Leaders in School Improvement through the Perceptions of Principals and Teachers
These researchers examined the perceptions of fifteen principals and 96 classroom teachers regarding the role of teacher leadership in school improvement. The data revealed significant differences in how principals and teachers perceive teachers' involvement in teacher leadership roles, in ratings of involvement of teachers in leadership roles when compared to the ratings of how involved they would like to be in those same roles, and how principals and teachers perceived the impact of teacher leadership roles on school improvement. Implications for practice are important to principals, teachers, and district level personnel.

PHOTOPHILE- Macrobrew: Coors taps into Elkton for brewery
For decades, the Coors Brewing Company has implored beer drinkers everywhere to "tap into the Rockies." Now, when lager lovers from Boston to Key West put their lips to an icy cold Coors Light or Keystone Light, they'll actually be tapping into the Blue Ridge.
On Wednesday, September 5, Coors opened a brand-new, $300 million, 100,000-square-foot brewery in Elkton, the only Coors brewery in addition to the original in Golden, Colorado, opened in 1873.
So why Elkton? The tiny Rockingham County town has been home to one of Coors' main packaging facilities since 1987, but the beer was always coming from elsewhere.
"We had purchased an old Schlitz plant in Memphis," explains chairman Pete Coors, the fourth generation to run the family business. "We had a decision to either keep putting money into an old facility or build a new one here. This was a no-brainer."
But the reasons why the family chose the Shenandoah Valley town of 2,000 to become its brewing center for the entire east coast don't just come down to just dollars and cents. It turns out there's something in the water: nothing.
"The water here in this aquifer is fabulous," says Coors. "There's no iron in it, but there are certain elements that are helpful for allowing the yeast to thrive and give birth to the sugar for fermentation. It's very similar to the water in Colorado."
"We don't have to treat it at all," adds brewmaster Andy Pickerell. "It has an absolutely perfect balance of salts and minerals for brewing."
Operational since the spring, the plant churns out an average of 12,000 barrels (or 372,000 gallons) of beer per day for an annual output of 7 million barrels (or 217 million gallons). Even with all that suds slinging, Coors has found a way to build a plant that's completely carbon neutral.
"We don't put any CO2 into the air," explains Pickerell. "We recycle all the carbon dioxide generated from fermentation and put it back into the beer when we're bottling it to give it that extra fizz."
The packaging facility already employs 450 people in the Elkton area, but don't expect there to be a line of people around the block applying to work in the brewery– the new brewing operation will need only eight to 10 new employees.
"The process is so automated at this point," says Pickerell, "that it ensures we're putting out a consistent brew every time."

Former chairman Bill Coors shares a moment with current chief supply chain officer, Dennis Puffer.
These combi kettles stir 1,000 barrels (31,000 gallons!) of brew at a time.

After their manufacture in Germany, all 40 of these 70-foot-high steel fermenters were shipped across the Atlantic by barge before their 10-hour truck journey from the port in Fredericksburg.

FORT WORTH, Texas (Dec. 19, 2013) – Senior Clinton Freeman (Jonesborough, Tenn.) was one of the key pieces to ETSU's championship success in 2013, and the Buccaneer two-way standout was recognized for his efforts as he received third team preseason All-America honors by the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association (NCBWA) on Wednesday. Freeman was tabbed as a utility player.
Freeman earned CollegeBaseballInsider.com/Louisville Slugger All-America accolades at the end of last season, while also being tabbed second team All-Atlantic Sun as he led the Buccaneers in nearly every offensive category. In addition, Freeman was one of 25 players placed on the watch list for the John Olerud Two-Way Player of the Year Award in 2013.
The left-handed slugger/hurler led the Blue and Gold in batting average (.335), hits (80), doubles (18), triples (4), home runs (10), RBI (57), and slugging percentage (.569). On the mound, the left-hander went 7-1 with a 3.04 ERA (19 ER/56.1 IP) and eight saves in 25 appearances (three starts). In Freeman's 22 relief appearances, the southpaw went 6-0 with a 0.65 ERA (3 ER/41.1 IP) and converted on all eight of his save opportunities.
Those numbers also placed Freeman among the conference leaders as the Jonesborough, Tenn. native ranked second in slugging percentage, tied for second in home runs, ranked third in RBI, tied for third in triples, tied for fourth in doubles, tied for sixth in hits, and ranked ninth in batting average. Meanwhile, Freeman's eight saves were the second-most by an A-Sun closer, while he tied for league lead in games finished at 21.
"This is a tremendous honor for Clinton," said head coach Tony Skole. "He had a heckuva junior season and we are very fortunate to have him back for his senior year. Clint is one of the most dedicated and hardest workers I have ever coached, so it is very gratifying to see him receive this recognition."
Freeman was one of 57 student-athletes to receive the honor, while the A-Sun had three players named to the list. Freeman was joined by Mercer's Nick Backlund and Chesny Young. In all, there are players from 17 conferences and 35 schools nationwide on the preseason list.
ETSU opens the 2014 campaign on Feb. 14 when the Bucs host Longwood. To purchase season tickets for the upcoming season, call the ETSU ticket office at (423) 439-3878 or visit ETSUBucs.com/tickets.

Kitchen Island Lighting At Lowes : Kitchen Recessed Lighting Design Guidelines
Kitchen lighting at lowes
In any type of busy kitchen area job zone, you need an overall source of light in addition to activity lights aimed straight at the office areas. Mounted lights could supply both, and also offer you the adaptability to route light specifically where you need it. It's an excellent candidate for track illumination if your kitchen area includes a solitary ceiling light component in the middle of the room. Mounted lights systems, available with both versatile and stiff tracks, can be wired directly to the ceiling junction box and individual lights can be aimed to brighten art work, the prep zones, or various other popular layout functions.
"You have a great deal of liberty with track illumination," claims Thomas Hayes, a developer with Thomas Hayes Interiors in Los Angeles, The golden state. For a seamless look, he recommends selecting white track illumination that will mix right into a white ceiling. Or you can make the track lighting more of a style statement and select a metal surface, such as stainless steel or bronze.
Here is required recommendation on kitchen lighting. We have the best resources for kitchen lighting. Check it out for yourself! You can find Kitchen Recessed Lighting Design Guidelines guide and read the latest Kitchen Island Lighting At Lowes.

By popular demand, we've got shirts being printed and they'll be available soon. I know I've wanted one and will wear it off the bike, at races, events, and everywhere else.
The response to Bike Hugger has been great, better than expected, and we appreciate it. Here's an example from Winky
I love this – in fact I love it so much I want to buy t shirts. Isn't that the ultimate show of loving something creative and idealists – turning it into a retail experience.
Considering a retail experience, if the shirts sell well (and I think they will), we've got a whole line in mind, as well as schwag. If you're interested in a shirt, post a comment and we'll get them to you first.
Going into the Fall and the next cycling season, we'll sponsor a women's cycling team and you'll see us at more events. Look for even more Bike Hugger.
Preorder a Bike Hugger Shirt from our Amazon.com store. They'll be ready to ship in about 2 weeks.

Alan Kortan needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 219 designs submitted by 30 freelance designers.
iMarket Real Estate Team
We are a Real Estate Team of Keller Williwms Realty Integrity Northwest and seek to have a Logo to "brand " the team which will be used for biz cards, stationery, envelopes, and eventually with a Wordpress website/blog! Much of the teams work is in high end new construction sales and will need to have a "Luxury Home" sophistication while maintaning some degree of simplicity. I had initially thought of an "icon" type symbol like used for FB, Flickr, etc. but want to leave it open for new ideas. Since most people start their Real Estate search online, the look of the logo should be "internet and user friendly". Picture of home front for example style type.
Tarket market audience is residential home buyers and sellers of Real property in a range from 500k-1.5m. these are individuals who are managers, professionals, executives, small business owners/operators etc. although a division of the team will be focusing on distressed properties, and helping owners find solutions for those circumstances, and traditional Real Estate transactions. Integrity and professionalism are key in the design as well as our business practice but should also communicate some sense of fun and joy.
It should be memorable like a picture without text perhaps. Beyond this, i place no further limitations on you! You are free! My burden is easy and my yoke is light! ohh wait, the logo i thought should stand alone as a team logo and not integrated with the Keller Williams Realty logo but i'm open to ideas there! I will attach one example of the Keller logo for you to look at. There are others as well.

Hi Nimmy!!
I have visited this person's blog. lo!! it's really amazing how people behave sometimes.
It's a word to word copy!!!
Anyways, gud things (rather popular things) are treated this way and it should surely boost your morale in keeping a nice blog.

.... jus would like to mention that I have too many times copy pasted some niceties here and their, but with some comments and surely not in this way.

Dear Friends,
First of all, a common Thank you for the lovely comments and a common Apology for not responding quickly. Something seems to have gone wrong with my blogspot Comments feature. I did not get any notification of new comments and noticed your comments in my blogspot dashboard only today!
@Chandra: :-)Thanks, I guess I've already almost forgotten this incident! Heh Heh. Happens with most of us, doesn't it...?! :-) Don't you worry about taking 'pieces' of text from others as long as you attribute it to them and do it with their permission in certain cases! :-)
@Raj: Trust you to be the kind soul you always are :-) Agreed. It definitely means he thought it was a nice blog title/description. I think what is at the back of my mind is perhaps the fact that I now have a 'duplicate' looking blog and there is a dent on the blog's identity. :-(
@Srini: Thanks! Well, I too am glad I get to at least announce the presence of a duplicate blog so people don't think I've copied the idea from somewhere else! :-)
@Shailen: :-D Hahhaaaa....LoL....can't stop laughing. Well, I definitely am not an enlightened soul but I've already forgiven this person. :-)
@Caveman/Jai: Trust you to use some exotic phrases. Loved them! Esp. Copy Crapamollas. :-) And...extremely glad to have you back here....leaving your comments and all. :-))
@Sushant: Thanks, friend. :-)

I found your blog via the Google search engine too. My wife and I named our daughter (she's about to be one year old) Michele too. We call her 'Macchi babe' for short. I had a girlfriend in college with that name and we have always thought it was very beautiful. We live in the States and my mother-in-law lives in a green town. My mother-in-law refuses to use Macchi's name. She calls her "The Baby" and says that Macchi will run away from us becuase of her name and that kids in school will be mean to her and she will turn to drugs. We love her name… (wow what are the evens of that)! I believe the world is bigger than her small town / and her small mind. Do you know many Macchi's? How about Mackerel, Tuna or maybe Salmon? Do you think it's very bad that we call her Macchi babe? Does that sound bad to you? Perhaps we do not pronounce it like you people may - we pronounce it like it is spelled in Hindi. Do you think kids these days are that closed minded?
Plajarising Two Hoots. Oops, I hope you no mind if I spell plagiarizing liking plajarising? I'm liking you and I'm just trying to be gud :)

@Jai: First things first. You simply have no idea what a wonderful favour you have done me. I swear. I could be your slave for life, just for this one comment. Before you begin to imagine that I've lost it, allow me to explain. I was in a totally miserable mood since morning. Wanted to run away to another galaxy, leave alone another planet in Milky Way. And here you come making me literally roll on the floor and guffaw away my worries. May God bless you! I'll personally ask Him/Her to in case this statement isn't good enough.
Now, I am wondering why I deleted that anonymous comment. Your comment when read alongside that would have been a total world-rocking riot. I am sorry I deleted it! :-(
