 is thrown off for their next series.
According to the Sportsbook Pay Per Head industry, the top three teams in terms of records reside in the National League. However, the two biggest favorites to win the World Series are in the American League. Toronto is the overall favorite to win it all this year returning a 3:1 payout. Kansas City is right behind the Blue Jays, returning 4:1.
The biggest favorite in the National League is Los Angeles (+550) – which is a bit of a surprise. This is because the St. Louis Cardinals had the best record in all of Major League Baseball this year.
The four Wild Card teams all have the worst odds of winning the World Series according to baseball betting odds. Both the Astros and Yankees are a +650 underdog to win the AL Pennant. In addition, they are both a 14:1longshot to win the World Series.
In the National League, Pittsburgh is +450 to win the NL while the Cubs are a 5:1 underdog. None of the division winners are worse than +225. It’s interesting to note that Pittsburgh has better odds than the Cubs to win the National League despite being listed as the underdog in their Wild Card playoff game. The Cubs and Pirates are both 10:1 longshots to win it all.
Odd circumstances this season, as both of the National League Wild Card teams have better records than two of the division winners. This is the reason all five NL contenders are close in terms of odds to come out of the NL and represent their league in the World Series.
Also, one of the main reasons the American League has the top two favorites to win it all is because the American League won the All-Star Game, which guarantees them home field advantage for the World Series.
We’ll be back next week to break down the matchups for the four divisional series.
Your relationship with your parents is about receiving when you are young and giving when they grow old.
You can only give and receive so much from another human being.
Your parents provided your basic needs, taught you a few things, gave you support and advice. But they cannot give you skills, knowledge, status and relationships. Those you earn by yourself. 
As you grow older, you can only return to your parents support, protection, advice on how to take care of their health and their basic needs. You cannot help them do the work to take care of their own health or give them happiness in old age, that they do for themselvesGreat shots!! What an awesome dog.
Great photos, especially the third one!
I hope you don't mind me asking, but what are the wraps for? To protect him if he knocks the jumps?
Out of curiosity I have been looking at a few of the clubs in the area. Most dogs are quite small would even venture to say about 35lbs.
That looks like so much fun...he looks like he loves it.....great pictures...
Nice! What brand skid boots did you get?
They aren't actually skid boots, they are just basically neoprene wrist wraps. He really doesn't skid at all (otherwise they would have been destroyed by now.) They are just for pastern support.
Wow those are really nice! Are they pretty easy to put on? The thing I hate about skid boots is that they are SO hard to put on, and the dogs can only wear them for racing. I forgot to take Pan's off once and his feet swelled twice their normal size.
His turn is looking fabulous! I can see from the pics he's coming off with his head pretty low, something I'm really working on with Nikon (his turn is great but he tends to come off pretty high which makes him a little "sticky" on the box). Does he triple stride between the box and the jump? My team is trying to get Nikon to triple stride and I just don't think he can.
They are really nice and they seem to be way easier to put on than the skid boots everyone else on my team has. They are pretty easy, I do make Odin lay down to put them on though cause other wise I seem to screw them up (now that he doesn't complain so much about it, its easy peasy.) I was planning to get a leather patch sewn on them as I have heard that dogs can burn through neoprene in one weekend. But after a full tournament and several practices they are showing no wear at all.
Thank you! I am honestly beaming proud of his turn It really is so nice, snappy and super efficient. And most important to me he doesn't slam into the box like a lot of the bigger, fast dogs do.  I found that doing up close work and having him target a ball on a rope on the ground really helped to get his head down. I did a lot of this when I first taught the turns and especially when I took the props away. I would have the ball basically close enough that he could come down right on to it, so that he was really driving down low and pushing hard off the box.
I would have to get some video and slow it down to be absolutely sure but I'm 99% sure that he is taking two collected strides to the box. I really don't see how there is any way to get a dog this size to take three strides to the box. I also seem to recall rocket relay saying in one of their videos that even most mals will only take two strides to and from the box.Rose Placesetting Invitations

Great for bridal luncheon invitations and wedding dinner rehearsal invitations as.Nearly all jobs demand us to work all day in front of digital screens. Continuously focusing on digital screens can have negative effects on your mind and body which you can never even think of. This is a problem which is faced by not only adults but children too!
If you want to save your eyes from the computer vision syndrome or digital eye strain, then here are some tips and tricks to maintain good eye-health.
How to Protect your Eyes from Digital Screens
1. Follow the 20-20-20 Rule
According to this, after every twenty minutes of looking at a digital screen, one should take a break and stare at something which is located twenty feet away for twenty seconds. This helps in relaxing the eye muscles for a little while.
2. Control Over Your Diet
There are specific food groups which work well for maintaining different parts of the body. For a perfect vision doctors recommend eating foods enriched with vitamin A, vitamin C, iron, omega 3 fatty acids and zinc.
3. Good Posture
Ideally the screen should be kept at an arm’s length. Keeping the screen at eye level will eliminate the pain from neck and shoulders.
4. Wear Blue Light Glasses
A special X-blue UV coating on lenses will help you to shield your eyes from the artificial blue rays which are extremely harmful to your eyes. The computer or blue light glasses have become a game changer for everyone who spends tremendous time glued to a screen.
5. Appropriate Level of Screen Brightness
Your screen should be lit enough so that no extra pressure is put on eye muscles to focus. Poor lighting can be a major reason for a person’s decreased productivity. It is also responsible for worsening the eye power.
6. Remember to blink
We often tend to forget blinking when we look at computer screens for long hours. This disrupts the production of tears, therefore, making our eyes dry.
For keeping your eyes healthy, remember to blink after every few seconds.
7. Eye-tests
Last but not the least, eye-tests should be a part of your health check-ups. After every two years, eye-tests should be conducted even if you are not experiencing any eye troubles.
If your troubles related to computer vision syndrome persist for a longer time, an eye doctor should be consulted as soon as possible.
