Otherwise known as the 2017 spring equinox, the day brings the promise of warmer days and more hours of sunshine; for the record spring begins Monday, March 20, 2017 at 6:29 a.m. ET. The vernal equinox, or spring equinox, is one of two times a year when we have nearly equal parts day and night , according to __link__. "The word equinox is derived from the Latin words meaning “equal night,” The Old Farmer's Almanac reported. "Days and nights are approximately equal everywhere and the Sun rises and sets due east and west.". Virginia restaurants are quick to embrace the slightest hint of warm weather by opening outdoor dining areas and, of course, Washington, DC area residents look to the start of the cherry blossom season—DC's unofficial welcome to spring.

... 58 percent of their investment on a bathroom renovation. However, those who put a new roof on their homes recouped 105 percent of their investment.

A fresh coat of paint can be a quick, easy and inexpensive way to update your home and push up the sale price, Gudell said. Zillow found last year that certain paint colors can have a big impact on how much you get for your home. For example, the study found that homes with yellow kitchens sold for about $1,400 more than homes with white kitchens. While a mauve, eggplant or lavender dining room raised sale prices by $1,122 on average, a dark gray dining room lowered it by $1,112. Smart-home tech may not be a good investment (yet). Photo courtesy of Shutterstock. While smart-home tech is trendy, it may not be worth the investment, Dykstra said. "It hasn't caught on yet in a way where we can quantify its value to the home with a dollar amount," she said. "It's still in the gadget stage where people go, 'Oh, ...

Tim Tebow Might Be Sticking Around Mets Camp

... word is there might be more to come. At least that’s how manager Terry Collins framed it Saturday. This time, TC says Tebow may make a few more appearances in spring games. — Marc Carig (@Marc Carig) March 18, 2017. More than once this spring Collins has suggested Tebow’s most recent Grapefruit League appearance would be his last. Now he’s suggesting that Tebow has actually earned a longer look on the major league side rather than strictly appearing in minor league games for the reminder of training camp. It could be argued the Mets are doing this just to pump up ticket sales, especially knowing that Tebow’s has no chance to make the team. Then again, Tebow has actually looked respectable at the plate as of late. In his first at-bat on Saturday, he impressively handled a Michael Wacha 95-mph fastball for a clean, opposite-field single. That hit gave him four in his last eight at-bats. [ Sign up for Yahoo Fantasy Baseball: Get in the game and join a league today ]. Tebow finished the game 1-for-3, including a strikeout against Wacha the second time around. He also looked OK in the outfield. That leads to one conclusion: Tebowmania isn’t going ...

Bryce Harper's Spring Power Surge Could Signal 2017 Mlb Rebound

... had gone 47 at-bats without a home run. The Nationals and Harper denied it, and Verducci wrote it again in September, when Harper was hitting.164 over a span of 61 at-bats. Verducci had sources, but he also had numbers, including one showing Harper wasn't hitting the ball as hard. Harper's poor 2016 season had everyone searching for answers. Harry How/Getty Images. Teams and players deny injuries all the time, so that's not a big deal. What would be a big deal is if the injury helps explain Harper's 2016 numbers, and if his early spring success is a better sign than any words of his improved health. People who know Harper say the shoulder wasn't his only issue last year. He did have problems with his swing, and he didn't deal with it well. But those things can be resolved if Harper's body is strong enough now to allow him to perform. Remember, this is a guy who won't turn 25 until October, a guy whose 2015 numbers were so good that we at Bleacher Report  were comparing them to those put up by Babe Ruth and Barry Bonds. Harper might well have been ...

Tigers Seeking 2nd Opinion On J.d. Martinez’s Right Foot Injury

... right foot injury. On Sunday, the Detroit Tigers are not any closer to a prognosis for his return. Martinez had an MRI on his right foot, but will see a foot specialist before the team discloses any information on his diagnosis, reports Anthony Fenech of the Detroit Free Press. Martinez underwent x-rays on Saturday, which were negative. Martinez left Saturday’s Grapefruit League game against the Miami Marlins after making a running catch in right field. He was walking gingerly as he left the field, but reporters noted that his gait had improved after checking in with head athletic trainer Kevin Rand. Martinez was spotted on crutches a short while later, but said he was feeling better. He was diagnosed with a right foot sprain, with further testing to come on Sunday. The need for a second opinion is a bit worrying for Tigers fans, but not a harbinger of things to come. MRIs are difficult to ...

Also, the Bruins must replace sure NFL draft first-rounder Takkarist Mc Kinley. Star recruit Jaelan Phillips is already on campus to try to do that.

If that is to occur, the Fighting Irish must find a capable replacement for NFL draft first-round talent De Shone Kizer, who leaves a large hole at the quarterback position. Coming off a redshirt season, when he preserved a year of eligibility, Brandon Wimbush will take over under ...
