CARSON CITY – The Western Nevada College baseball team came into the NJCAA Region 18 tournament as the favorite, and came out as the champion. WNC rolled over the College of Southern Idaho 18-3 on Saturday to capture the Region 18 title at John L. Harvey Field.
On a sunny and warm afternoon, Western's offense was too hot for the Golden Eagles to handle. Although CSU scored the first run of the contest in the opening inning, Western tied it in the bottom of the inning on an RBI by Travis Feiner. The Wildcats then took the lead in the second inning on an RBI by catcher Jerome Pena, and never looked back. Leftfielder Brian Barnett let loose with a grand slam in the third inning to break the game open, and Feiner banged out a three-run homer in the fifth inning for insurance.
Starting pitcher Josh Moody completed five innings before Head Coach DJ Whittemore began spreading playing time around the bullpen. Logan Odom and Jeff Barto took their turns on the mound before Kyle Starratt pitched the final inning.
Although the outcome became apparent well before the ninth inning, the Wildcats and their fans were exuberant when the game ended, and the dogpile of players at the pitcher's mound gave testament to the meaning of the moment.
"Hard work pays off," said Whittemore, adding, "I'm really lucky to be the coach of this team."
"It's a great way to top off the season," said Barnett, when asked about his timely grand slam.
WNC will now host a four-team tournament Thursday-Saturday, May 14-16, against the champions from District 1 and District 19, as well as College of Southern Idaho. The winner of that tournament will compete in the NJCAA World Series in Grand Junction, Colorado.
Whittemore said that all the teams in next weekend's district tournament come from wood bat leagues, and will have to adjust to playing with metal bats as required by the NJCAA. The JUCO World Series also uses metal bats.
"We'll be back to work on Monday, working to complete our season goals," Whittemore said. "We know what we're in store for. We're going to be ready."

Over at PCLinuxOS, Texstar and company have been testing various cvs versions of the forthcoming xorg 7, the release dated 1st Oct 2005 has been pulled apart by the gang over the last day or so, and has proved pretty much unbreakable, as a result it is now in the PCLOS Stable repos as of this evening.
Hugely improved "nv" driver, many improvements on other cards (ata, sis etc), nvidia 3D driver seems to go faster/better/smoother with 3D programs though not so noticeable with 2D.
A whole pile of other stuff is being moved into stable, and Texstar expects an interim 9.2 release soon. I know he's hoping to get Hotplug completely replaced by udev, but latest udev releases need very careful packaging for stability.

A startup car company called Elio Motors is moving into the former General Motors plant in Shreveport, where it would build three-wheeled, low-price vehicles.
Gov. Bobby Jindal announced Thursday that Elio is buying part of the plant to assemble its unusual-looking car. The company says the two-seat vehicle averages 65 miles per gallon of gas and will sell for $6,800.
Phoenix, Ariz.-based Elio says it will hire 1,500 workers by late 2015, reviving a plant that once built pickup trucks and the commercial Hummer.
The plant has been closed since late August. GM had handed it over to a trust that took over dozens of GM-owned facilities after the company declared bankruptcy.
The company has been taking reservations for the vehicle, called the Elio. First delivery is projected for mid-2014.

About this paper
Master data management is an activity that goes beyond the needs of any single business function, so it is important to finesse any recognized barriers to success. In this paper by data quality and MDM thought leader David Loshin, we look at how data consolidation (the typical approach to master data management) can fail to meet data consumption needs. By transitioning from a consolidation approach to a data utilization approach, you will see how MDM can contribute to a long-term information strategy that uses best practices to take advantage of shared repurposed enterprise information.

Laissez les bons temps rouler! Lets get the party started!
A young man named Blake Patterson opens the show. Seated at a piano, he rips out a heartfelt and tearful rendition of Smile. We discover that he is emoting because he has just been rejected by our esteemed panel of judges, Steven Tyler, JLo and Randy Jackson.
What a welcome to the second audition city, New Orleans (or Nawlins). But, take a deep breath because after the opening credits roll, screaming multitudes (some in Mardi Gras dress complete with mask) let us know it is a time of hope, of dreams come true oh, stop me now.
6500 show up with their party on and one of them (Im sure) tried to sabotage Tylers chair not really but, he got some comedy out of it. Oh, oh, the backdrop color has changed from blue to pink. Is it because pink is more party-licious? Still in the opening package, Ryan informs us that this is the first time American Idol has been in New Orleans since Season 4. The last time he couldnt get the good times rolling, but doesnt share whether or not he has improved his French in the six years since.
Down to business: first up is Jordan Dorsey who is a musician from a small town where he teaches piano and vocals. He gets the first storyboard of the night so we know we can keep the cotton out of our ears for the moment; but keep it at the ready, because he is only the first to stand in judgment. His family waits outside the ominous door to the audition room, and his grandmother takes a moment to inform Ryan that he looks taller on television. Let the good times roll! Jordan sings Over the Rainbow, which gives JLo goosebumps. Randy counts down 1,2,3 and they all say YES to the first one through to Hollywood from New Orleans.
A flabbergasted Randy exclaims, Thats whats supposed to happen, thats what you do in audition! Ahem didnt he say that in New Jersey as well?
Um, I do believe that it is too good to be true, Randy. After the break Ryan takes us into the swamp which is used as a metaphor for a montage of crazies passing through the morning session. It is fun to watch the judges expressions; good for a chuckle or two, but then they bring back the yummy stuff; sort of like an appetizer of gag worthy ingredients followed by a scrumptious entree.
Sarah Sellers, a marketing person by day and a food and music blogger by night, enters and perks up Tyler with her large lip formation. Okay he foams at the mouth, but after he calms down, her voice wins them over with a Bob Dylan song. Shell be blogging from Hollywood.
More fun stuff along with the yummy stuff arrives in a package with sensual eyes. Jovany Barreto, 23, is a shipbuilder whose parents emigrated from Cuba. He thinks he has an IN with JLo because she will see her husband (and his Idol) Marc Anthony in his eyes. He sings in Spanish and woos them with compliments accompanied by soft Spanish guitar music. (Way to put a package together, producers.) After they compliment him in turn and grant him the golden ticket, he strips off his vest and shirt in a tribute to Marcs abs. This is, of course, a male challenge that Tyler and Randy cant resist and they join him on the platform in front of JLo for a display of their own attempts at abs, or stomach. Shall we call this segment pec-a-palooza?
JLo: What just happened? You know this would happen when you got us here, right?
They send it to commercial, mainly so the female viewers can fan themselves; then Ryan welcomes us back with another of his tours. This time it is through Louisiana state trivia where we learn that the states favorite dog is The Dawg. Yes, Randy is a native of Baton Rouge, and the next young lady to audition has the high school pictures and a tag-along football coach to prove it. After all the back slapping hoopla, Jacqueline Dupree has a chance to sing and they find her to be awesome, sending her along to Hollywood.
Ah, Brett Lowenstern, a 16 year old with well-conditioned, curly red hair, who considers himself a red apple in a pile of green apples, tells us that he likes to stand out. It was hard being different, though, and until he had an epiphany about being happy with himself, the school bullies got him down. Once inside the audition room he wows the judges with his voice, which is way bigger than his small frame suggests. They give him a shouted YES in unison.
Gabriel Franks is very confident and not nervous, but is shown having difficulty pulling the paper backing off of his audition number. Sneaky editors get you every time. Reading from a cue card, Randy leads him into telling them that he won a radio station contest because he looks like Steven Tyler. Tyler takes a bit of exception to that saying that he looks more like Mick Jagger; but then, Tyler and Jagger are mistaken for one another now and again. In other words, I dont think Tyler took it as a compliment, especially after Mr. Franks opened his mouth to sing Lady GaGas Bad Romance. It was bad, all right, and he received three resounding NOs.
With that as a cue, we slip and slide with Ryan as he wonders if old New Orleans voodoo has taken over. They back the montage of bad with song classic, I Put a Spell on You, and showcase all those Mardi Gras costumed contestants who waited so long to share their talent. The segment ends with a boat horn stopping hip hop in its tracks, and prompting JLo to mutter, Awkward.
Clips of people in preparation for their turn oddly bring us to a young man who prepared for this audition at Idol Camp when he was 15. Alex Attardo is now 18 and standing in front of our panel. He takes a deep breath and launches into Proud Mary accompanied by chuckles from the three judges. No.
Jacee Badeaux, 15, has not been to Idol Camp. This baby-faced young man enters with a twinkle in his eye to face a skeptical panel. One phrase into Otis Reddings Sitting on the Dock of the Bay and they are skeptical no more. They praise him for his beautiful voice and award him his ticket. He is not a jumper, but his twinkle gets brighter when he joins his family on the other side of the door.
Darn you, Producers! We got through almost a whole hour and not one true sob story. Why, why, why now?
At age 18, Paris Tassin delivered a baby girl afflicted with Hydrocephalus. Five years later, she is proud of her little girl, despite problems associated with the condition, and likes to sing to her all the time. For the audition, she sings Carrie Underwoods Temporary Home, which brings tears to JLos eyes. It is Paris dream to sing and they grant her a golden ticket. At the end of the auditions, when the building is clearing out, JLo stops by to hug mother and child.
For those who wish to learn more about this condition, here is a website:
The Producers close the second audition show with an emotional bang; but how many dreams did they actually fulfill in New Orleans? It turns out that 37 hopefuls are heading to Hollywood while we, of course, got to see and hear only a handful. Good luck to them all.
Next Wednesday we have two hours to learn all we can about Milwaukee, WI. Will I have to count the cheese-heads? Please say no.

Benjamin Britten: Choral Works & Opera For Children
The compositions of Benjamin Britten (1913-1976) represent some of the most renowned musical works of the 20th century. Though spurning the technology of recordings throughout the first half of his life, Britten eventually recognized its importance for bringing awareness to the public of the relevance of music in society, and subsequently made it a priority during the last twenty of his life.
In carrying on Britten's philosophy, EMI Classics has compiled over six hours of the composer's material, recorded entirely after his death, and has released it in a new seven disc box-set, "Benjamin Britten: Choral Works & Opera For Children." Featuring major conductors including Simon Rattle, Andre Previn, David Willcocks and Philip Ledger, this collection is a hearty reminder of the scope and passion of Britten the composer and musician.
Beginning with one of his most famous works, a 1983 recording of his "War Requiem," with Rattle leading the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra with soloists Elisabeth Söderström, Robert Tear and Thomas Allen, the material is efficiently distributed throughout the discs. Britten's statement of those who foster armed conflict is in turn followed by one of the most gorgeous symphonies ever written: his "Spring Symphony," the impressive cohesion of poems from twelve different writers, developed by the composer into a soothing walk in the country for the listener to enjoy.
Both a 1977 recording of the children's opera, "The Little Sweep" and a 1989 presentation from The Winter Gardens in Bournemouth of "Noye's Fludde" show Britten's flair for writing for younger voices without the slightest pandering to their elders. The influence of poet W.H. Auden on Britten's writing is also well represented here, with "A Shepherd's Carol," "Ballad of Heroes," and "A.M.D.G. (Ad maiorem Dei gloriam)" the latter with text by Gerard Manley Hopkins, but whose poetry was exposed to the composer by Auden.
This is an expansive opportunity to enjoy the accessible, yet brilliant works of one the 20th century's most recorded composers.

WILMINGTON, Mass. — Far be it for me to expect Bruins head coach Claude Julien to take my advice.
But after practice today at Ristuccia Arena, Julien sounded like a coach ready to get his entire team, including the perennial scratches, game-ready for the playoffs over the final seven contests of the regular season.
That could mean rest for the weary and ice time for the seldom-used among the Bruins, who wrapped up their fourth straight playoff berth Sunday night.
"I think down the road, you're going to see us moving some of those guys in there and we're going to try to make sure we keep everybody more or less in the loop," said Julien. "But at the same time, you want to make sure that you have a roster that you feel comfortable with. We're going to try to balance that out – whether it's goaltenders, whether it's Ds or even forwards for that matter."
Julien might not go to the extreme I suggested and rest every defenseman at least once over the final two weeks of the season. But he obviously has a plan in mind for rookie Steven Kampfer and veteran Shane Hnidy, who hasn't played all season, to get into some game action. Michael Ryder, who Sunday was a healthy scratch for the second time in three weeks, should also expect some playing time and a chance to earn back his job among the top 12 forwards.

Re: O-line blocking scheme
Or maybe we finally have an online coach that isn't living in the Stone Age? I'm not fond of a Tomlin because I think he's a sports cliche dolt, but maybe for once he's made a good decision and he's going with a progressive blocking scheme that fits the players he has? I'm hoping that's the case.

When will I be able to ensconce myself in velvet e-devices?
As soon as we handle the inherent ESD issue involved with such a material, I'd wager.
As soon as we handle the inherent ESD issue...
Or learn to harness its energy potential!
Just think, for the small price of wearing special underwear, you would never need another battery! Nevermind that the static built up in the underwear would significantly reduce your sperm count...

So the future of e-book readers is a substance squeezed from the behind of a mulberry leaf-eating worm ?
Damn it! Just got trolled into looking at anal lube while at work. Curse you Dr. Tom.
Silk work silk is made of two proteins. sericin (basically a glue, water soluable) and Fibroin. To make "liquid silk" you just boil the cocoons to get rid of the sericin and then dissolve the fibroin in lithium salts or maybe CaCl?
Tissue engineering and silk:
Depends on what you compare it it. A 100mm (roughly 4 inch) wafer of pure silicon could cost as much as $500 in single quantities for certain grades. That's certainly far more expensive than raw silk, although one must consider the cost of preparing the raw silk to be suitable for use in electronics.That's bound to be expensive in small quantities, but reduce itself greatly as the scale of the process increases.
So the future of e-book readers is a substance squeezed from the behind of a mulberry leaf-eating worm ?
Yes, but enough about Michael Crichton's latest...
Anyone else read this as "Researchers Turned to Silk" like some kind of fabricy medusa?
of worms becoming the most important creatures to our technological advancement.
God helps them that themselves. -- Benjamin Franklin, "Poor Richard's Almanac"

Fla. House Approves Antiabortion Bill, but Senate Prospects Uncertain
March 5, 2012 — The Florida House on Thursday approved a bill (HB 277) that would mandate a 24-hour waiting period before abortion care and impose new regulations on abortion providers, the Palm Beach Post reports (Kam, Palm Beach Post, 3/1). The bill passed 78-33, largely along party lines (Saunders, Fort Myers News-Press, 3/1).
The bill would require that abortion clinics be owned by physicians who specialized in abortion care during residency, ban abortion providers from advertising and require doctors to tell women seeking abortion care that fetuses can feel pain after 20 weeks of gestation, a notion that is disputed by the scientific community. According to the Post, the Supreme Court struck down a ban on advertising by abortion providers more than 30 years ago (Palm Beach Post, 3/1).
Another provision in the measure would require the state Agency for Health Care Administration to collect data on every abortion procedure, including length of gestation and the patient's age, race, marital status, number of live births, any previous abortions and hometown. The data would be posted on a public website and submitted to the federal government. Rep. Lori Berman (D) suggested that the data could be used to identify women from small towns.
A similar measure in the Senate (SB 290) has stalled in committee and is not scheduled to be reconsidered (Sanders, AP/Miami Herald, 3/1).

The IPKat reproduces, below, the media release from the European Parliament on this afternoon's vote on the new EU unitary patent package.
Parliament approves EU unitary patent rulesPLENARY SESSION Competition − 11-12-2012 - 13:00EU inventors will soon be able to get a unitary patent at last. After over 30 years of talks, a new regime will cut the cost of an EU patent by up to 80%, making it more competitive vis-à-vis the US and Japan [This is not true: EU patents do not compete with patents in other countries any more than European rules on urban traffic control compete with US, Japanese or Chinese rules]. MEPs cut costs for small firms and tailored the regime to their needs [even if it means small companies having to litigate a single contested patent through the courts of three different countries: see Lord Justice Kitchin's critique here] , in a compromise deal with the Council endorsed by Parliament on Tuesday,In three separate voting sessions, MEPs approved the so-called "EU patent package" (unitary patent, language regime and unified patent court)."Intellectual property must not stop at borders. The path towards the introduction of the EU patent was long and troubled, but ultimately it has been worth the effort", said Bernhard Rapkay (S&D, DE), the lead MEP on the regulation setting up a unitary patent protection system [and a career politician who has shown neither sensitivity nor understanding towards the patent system or its many users], "Today's vote is good news for EU economy and especially for European small and medium enterprises (SMEs)", he added.The current European patent regime "is effectively a tax on innovation" said Raffaele Baldassarre (EPP, IT), who led talks on the regime for translating EU patents. "Specific measures for SMEs to fully reimburse translation costs and ensure extra legal protection in the event of counterfeiting" were introduced on Parliament demand, he added.Legal Affairs Committee Chair Klaus-Heiner Lehne (EPP, DE), who led on the international agreement setting up a unified patent court, said: "People in China are telling us that we cannot have a single market without a unitary patent" [Is there any other message from China that the European Parliament would like to pass on, while they're about it?]. With the new rules "a lot of obstacles for SMEs will be overcome", he added.Cheaper and more effective protectionThe new patent will be cheaper and more effective than current systems in protecting the inventions of individuals and firms. The new regime will provide automatic unitary patent protection in all 25 participating member states, cutting cuts costs for EU firms and hence boosting their competitiveness. When the new system is up to speed, an EU patent may cost just €4,725, compared to an average of €36,000 needed today, says the European Commission.
How to apply for the new patent?
Any inventor will be able to apply to the European Patent Organisation (EPO, a non-EU body) for an EU unitary patent valid in all 25 EU member states taking part. Patents will be made available in English, French and German. Applications will have to be made in English, German or French. If made in another language, they will have to be accompanied by a translation into one of these three languages.How Parliament helped to reduce costsParliament ensured that translation costs will be fully reimbursed for EU-based small and medium-sized enterprises, non-profit organisations, universities and public research organisations .

Building motorcycles is an art as well as a science. While some builders take it very seriously, others have a sense of irreverence. The lighter touch often seems to come from mainland Europe; the French outfit Blitz springs to mind, and another is Spain's El Solitario, run by David Borras.
'Chupito' is the latest from El Solitario, and is based on a 1977 Ducati Road 350. These nimble singles were marketed under the Ducati name, but were actually built by the short-lived Spanish company MotoTrans, which was taken over by Yamaha in the 80s.

He Would Have Changed China
Zhao Ziyang: Ruanjinzhong de tanhua (Captive Conversations)
In trying to make sense of their country's turbulent modern history, Chinese intellectuals sometimes resort to counterfactual speculation. How might things have been different if one or another accidental event had happened differently? For decades it was a sort of parlor game to guess how long the great writer Lu Xun, who died in 1936 possessing a keen eye for hypocrisy and a stiletto wit, and whom Mao Zedong praised in 1942 as "the bravest, most correct national hero," could have survived in Maoland had he lived beyond 1949. Eight years, most people said. If he had somehow managed to avoid prison until 1957, the Anti-Rightist Campaign of that year surely would have got him.1 Harder to fathom is a question like what would have happened in China if Mao Yichang and Wen Qimei, parents of Mao Zedong, had lived apart in the spring of 1893, when Mao was conceived.
Zong Fengming's new book, Zhao Ziyang: Captive Conversations, raises a question of the same sort, and it has stimulated much debate both inside and outside China. Zhao Ziyang was premier of China from 1980 to 1987, during which time he gained much credit for pushing China's economy forward, and from 1987 to 1989 was general secretary of the Communist Party, when he became known for advocating reform of the political system. During the demonstrations at Tiananmen in 1989, Zhao advocated using "democracy and rule of law" to settle the crisis. But Party elder Deng Xiaoping, who held ultimate power and who was swayed by Premier Li Peng and others who saw nefarious intent within the student movement, chose repression.
After Deng had already ordered troops to surround Beijing, he summoned Zhao to ask that he concur in possible use of the military, but Zhao, well knowing that intransigence would cost him his position, declined. After the massacre on June 4, Zhao was charged with "splitting the Party" and "supporting chaos." He then further sealed his fate by declining to write the kind of "self-criticism" that is customary in the Chinese Communist Party when one is disgraced. He spent the next sixteen years under house arrest at his home at No. 6, Wealth and Power Alley, Beijing. In 2004 he developed pulmonary fibrosis, and he died on January 17, 2005, at the age of eighty-five.
Meanwhile the Deng Xiaoping formula of "market yes, democracy no" marched forward under Zhao's successors, Jiang Zemin and Hu Jintao. China's economy, military, and international influence have grown steadily while inequality, discontent, repression, and environmental degradation have worsened. All this is background for the counterfactual questions that frustrated Chinese reformers now ask about 1989. How would China be different if Zhao had stayed on? And how might he have done that?
In August 1991, when Boris Yeltsin climbed atop a tank in Moscow to defy a coup by Soviet hard-liners against Mikhail Gorbachev, and when Yeltsin won the support of a cheering crowd and helped to turn the tide against the hard-liners, some in China…

- Premier League
Zaha: I am staying at United
Manchester United forward Wilfried Zaha says he intends to stay at Old Trafford this season, with Red Devils' boss David Moyes confirming that the player will be part of the first-team picture.
Zaha impressed on his United debut in a pre-season friendly against Singha All-Stars, though Moyes' men lost 1-0 in the Scot's first game in charge.
The 20-year-old was signed from Crystal Palace in January and then loaned back to the London club, helping them win promotion to the Premier League.
It had been suggested that Zaha might return to the Eagles to gain more top-flight experience this season, while West Ham had also been linked with a short-term move.
However, the England international insists he is ready to step up and prove he deserves to be challenging for a place in United's starting XI.
"I've grafted to get here so Manchester United is where I want to stay," Zaha told the club's official website. "I have moved away from most of my family and friends but it's progress.
"Everyone understands that. I wanted to make the move here because it's what is best for my career."
Zaha caught the eye on his United bow and Moyes sees no reason why the attacker should be sent out on loan.
"Wilfried did well,'' Moyes said. "He gave us a little bit of something different. We have brought him here to give him a chance. It is the first time I have worked with him and had a chance to see him up close.
"He will certainly be part of the squad and we will see where we can fit him in as often as we can.''
Teenage midfielder Adnan Januzaj also enjoyed a memorable outing, starring in the first half for United.
The Belgian was handed a squad number and a place on the bench for Sir Alex Ferguson's last game against West Brom on the final day of last season and Moyes was impressed with the way he took his first-team chance.
"He was a plus for us,'' Moyes said. "He played well. It is always good when you give a young player a chance and he shows up. He did that tonight. The more he plays like that the more opportunities he is likely to get.''
United went down 1-0 in Thailand to Teeratep Winothai's 50th-minute effort but Moyes was not concerned about losing his first game, saying: "It wasn't a brilliant result but this wasn't one we desperately needed to win. It is one we need to get prepared to win games from.''

First, there was last night:
Oakland leads 2-1.And then this afternoon:
Ramirez (bsbf) struck out looking.
Ortiz (bfbbs) walked.
Millar (bfbf) homered to left.
Red Sox win 3-2.
Athletics led 5-4.Pwn3d!!!
Ortiz (bsbffb) walked.
Millar (bfbb) flied out to left.
Varitek (bf) homered to right.
Red Sox win 6-5.
What made this victory (and the three-game series sweep) even sweeter was that it came after the A's had scored four times against Keith Foulke in the top of the 9th, the tying and go-ahead runs coming on a home run by the much-loathed Eric Byrnes.
It was a disheartening outing for Foulke, who looked sharp pitching to the first two batters. He struck out Durazo, walked Kielty, and got Hatteberg to hit into a force out. Then trouble began. Scutaro doubled to the gap in left-center for a double and Ginter singled to the same spot. Then Byrnes homered. Foulke walked Kotsay before getting Kendall to fly to right.
I have no idea what's going on with Foulke and barring any news in the papers tomorrow, I'm going to chalk it up to a bad outing and move on. In my mind, he struck Byrnes out -- and ended the game at 4-3 Sox -- on an inside 1-2 pitch that was called ball two.
Other offensive bright spots: Manny Ramirez hit a first-pitch home run in the third, the 398th tater of his career. NESN showed some old footage of his first major league home run, which came on September 3, 1993 at Yankee Stadium. Manny had made his debut only the night before (he went 0-for-4). There were a ton of people in the bleachers that night from Manny's Washington Heights neighborhood, yelling and waving signs and flags. I remember watching the game. Manny hit two home runs and a double in that game.
In addition to today's game-winning home run -- which was down the right field line -- Varitek also singled, doubled and walked. Ortiz singled, doubled and walked, Renteria and Mueller both singled twice and Damon doubled to extend his hitting streak to 17 games.
In what has become almost de rigeur, the Red Sox starter -- Matt Clement this time -- shone. Clement pitched seven innings and allowed five hits, one walk and one run. ... The Red Sox left the bases loaded twice today (fifth and eighth innings), which would have stung if not for the comeback.
Baltimore beat the Twins so the Red Sox stay 1½ games behind. Toronto (4 GB) and the Yankees (7 GB) also won. ... Boston's next game is Friday night at 10 pm in Seattle, which means we'll go almost 54 hours without some Red Sox baseball.

Police seek help identifying suspect in shooting death | News
ATLANTA -- Police are looking for the public's help in identifying a suspect who fatally shot a 20-year-old man in the elevator lobby of an apartment building on Ponce De Leon Avenue.
RELATED | Man found shot near Eastside Trail
Late Monday afternoon, Atlanta Police responded to a reported shooting at 699 Ponce De Leon Avenue. When they arrived, officers said they found 20-year-old Lee Lowery III, who had been shot one time. Lowery was taken to Grady Memorial Hospital in extremely critical condition. He later died as a result of his injuries.
Tuesday morning, investigators released surveillance video of the shooting.
In the video, Lowery can be seen standing next to the elevators, holding a package.
Another man approaches him from behind and grabs the package.
Police did not release the portion where they say the second man then shot Lowery.
"Our preliminary investigation revealed that the incident appears to be a robbery," said Lt. Paul Guerrucci.
Lowery lived a few miles away and was just visiting the Ford Factory Lofts Apartments.
Police are asking anyone who knows why Lowery was there or what was in his package to contact them.
They also want to hear from anyone who may be able to identify the shooter.
Anyone who has any information on the shooting is asked to call Atlanta PD Homicide investigators at 404-546-4235, or Crime Stoppers Atlanta at 404-577-8477.

Barcelona captain Carles Puyol has spoken about the shock that came with the news that Tito Vilanova was to step down as manager of the Catalan club.
Vilanova left his role at Barca last Friday after it became clear that his illness was going to make it too difficult to continue working.
"Nobody expected it," Puyol said at a press conference. "The team has been left very affected. The news we have received is very difficult, but this is an illness and the person is the most important,"
Last season saw the Barcelona manager miss extended periods of the campaign as he received treatment in New York, and now he has decided to step down.
An unbeaten home run and record-matching 100 points ensured yet another La Liga title, but his illness has evidently had an affect on his players, as Puyol explains: "Tito is very much in the thoughts of those in the dressing room. He asked us to continue to fight as he would do."
The Spain international then discussed some of the main candidates to fill the vacated hot seat, including his former team-mate Luis Enrique.
"All the names that are coming out are capable of training this team. I am sure they will look for who is best for Barca. You all know that I have a good relationship with Luis Enrique, who is one of the candidates, and he is capable as are the rest of the names."
With a month to go before the defence of their league crown commences, Barcelona will be looking to appoint Tito Vilanova's successor sooner rather than later.

RC Tarantula, for Furry Fun
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Misc. Tech, Toys,
There is certainly a plethora of remote control gadgets lately. We might have passed on this one, but how funny would it be to creep out the neighbors' kids with this RC Tarantula on Halloween? The hairy arachnid has eyes that light up and hustles on smooth surfaces. The spider's infrared remote is an egg that allows him to rotate or move in any direction. About 20 cm long, it needs 2 AA and 2 AAA batteries (included,) and can be greeting the neighbors for £19.41 (~$38.00.)

It's gotten so bad that even one of America's most respected cable news commentators seems to have jumped on the bandwagon to marginalize the Catholic Church in the wake of Benedict's resignation.
Yes, even Bill O'Reilly, himself a Catholic, recently said the Church has lost moral authority due to the abuse scandals.
That may be true in the media-fueled court of public opinion but it is certainly not theologically accurate. The Church has always held the same moral positions from its very beginnings which, by the way, fulfill the highest standards of conduct and holiness found in the Old Testament and also reflect the truths of natural law.
The fact is, people, individuals make bad choices. All of us are sinners, including this humble correspondent. Even the holiest, most respected people have their skeletons, including Abraham, Moses and David from the Old Testament; St. Peter and St. Paul from the New Testament; Pope Alexander VI from the Renaissance.
In our own times, Gandhi and MLK Jr. (not Catholics), also JFK and even some notable cardinals, who were forced to resign or retire. These personal failings do nothing to diminish the immutable teaching authority of the Church.
During this season of Lent I hope that people of goodwill can look beyond the quips and jokes of morning- and late- night talk show personalities and the failings of individuals to appreciate that the Church is and will always be the primary force for good and salvation in the world.
As Jesus Himself said, "Father, forgive them; for they know what they do."

Here is my weird experience with Yii today. I am developing an application using Yii on my localhost. I started installing some crap updates to my wamp server [windows] and screwed it up. I uploaded my application on my hosting and some things stopped working. One of them which I wasted a few hours to fix updates a field in my user table and more precisely updates the timestamp in a field representing a last login. Here is the query:
$login_time = time(); $condition = "username = '".Yii::app()->user->name."'"; $upd = Users::model('Users')->updateAll(array('last_login'=>$login_time), $condition);
Initially, the above query was located in my actionLogin:
public function actionLogin() { $form=new LoginForm; // collect user input data if(isset($_POST['LoginForm'])) { $form->attributes=$_POST['LoginForm']; // validate user input and redirect to previous page if valid if($form->validate()) $login_time = time(); $condition = "username = '".Yii::app()->user->name."'"; $upd = Users::model('Users')->updateAll(array('last_login'=>$login_time), $condition); $this->redirect(Yii::app()->user->returnUrl); } // display the login form $this->render('login',array('form'=>$form,'sql'=>$sql)); }
...no success.
I setup all types of logging and Yii never executed this as oppose to successfully running it on my localhost. I then copied the query and moved it in the UserIdentity.php class [the file is the same as in the blog tutorial]:
public function authenticate() { $username=strtolower($this->username); $user=Users::model()->find('LOWER(username)=?',array($username)); if($user===null) $this->errorCode=self::ERROR_USERNAME_INVALID; else if(md5($this->password)!==$user->password) $this->errorCode=self::ERROR_PASSWORD_INVALID; else if($user->privilege == '0') $this->errorCode=self::ERROR_INACTIVE; else { $login_time = time(); $this->_id=$user->id; $this->username=$user->username; $condition = "username = '".strtolower($this->username)."'"; $upd = Users::model()->updateAll(array('last_login'=>$login_time), $condition); $this->errorCode=self::ERROR_NONE; } return !$this->errorCode; }
Can someone explain why this query would not run in my SiteController/login action but would successfully run in the UserIdentity class? I would like to know what I have missed to learn about MVC.

Hard Rock Van Halen and Band Hero are apparently slated to hit PS2, PS3, Xbox 360 and Wii in August and November, respectively. No further details on the games themselves were provided, such as how Band Hero differs from Guitar Hero.
Earlier this year, Activision promised a "major re-stage" of the Guitar Hero franchise with "all new differentiated Guitar Hero products" in the second half of 2009.
The third unannounced game appears to be another Guitar Hero title for the Nintendo DS, which will follow the June-due Guitar Hero On Tour: Modern Hits.
The site further specified that already known efforts Guitar Hero 5 and DJ Hero will arrive in PS2, PS3, Xbox 360 and Wii form in October and September, respectively.
Activision has vowed to triple the amount of Guitar Hero releases by 2010. Guitar Hero Metallica arrives on PS3 and Xbox 360 in March, with Wii and PS2 vesions coming later, and Guitar Hero: Greatest Hits will hit the same platforms come June.

press conference recaps
MSU Postgame Presser Transcript: Brady Hoke
I don't always golf. But when I do, I think of brunette girls.
What's your overall reaction to your team's reaction to winning No. 900 against Michigan State?
"Well to be honest with you I don't know if they realized the 900th win. Maybe the two seniors had an idea -- the two captains -- where we're at, because that wasn't the point of focus for the week. It was playing a great rivalry game, a game in our division, that's important to win. Playing hard and playing to represent the 133 years of Michigan football."
Reaction to Drew Dileo's game?
"He's not the biggest guy. He's not the fastest guy. But the one thing Drew is, he's a football player. What he does for our football team in a lot of different areas from an off returner in kickoffs to holding on PATs and field goals, I think you all would agree that there were two field goals that were pretty important today. The one at the end, that's a skill set. He's just a tough, undersized, not fast enough, but he's a football player. That's what he is."
Where do you think your defense is at right now compared with where you want it to be?
"We really had a bad series in there defensively. You give your opponent credit, but we didn't do some things well at the start of the second half. They went down and scored the touchdown. You know, I think we'll look at the film. I think we'll look at some things we did well, and I hope we repeat those, but we're not near the defense we need to be to win a championship in this conference."
Denard was bottled up for most of the game but was able to make some big plays when it counted. What does it say about his leadership ability?
"I think he's been an outstanding leader. The confidence that he has and his teammates have is part of it. I don't know if anyone on our sideline thought the game was over. The defense was playing well at that point. Get the ball back and see what happens."
Can you talk about the fake punt but then holding MSU to a field goal afterwards?
"Yeah that was a very good play for Michigan State. That was a smart play. They saw that we weren't leveraging the outside, and that's something that I need to do a better job with as part of the punt return team coaching staff. Because that got them some hope, got them in the game, but the one thing we told the defense: 'Keep them to a field goal. If we keep them to a field goal here, then good things can happen for us.' Obviously that's what happened."
Did you feel like you did a better job of matching their physicality this year?
"I think so. Yeah. I thought our kids, you know, we wanted to play, finish everything we were doing. Blocks, plays, catches, runs, whatever your job is to do, we wanted to finish. I thought we practiced that way. I thought we did that."
You've talked to us before about Matt Wile having a big leg. What went into the decision to put him out there for the long field goal?
"You answered it. Bigger leg. Stronger leg. That's one reason why Matt kicks off for us. We had some wind with us. That wind kind of changed really right before the start of the game, so we felt that he would have the leg to do it. He did by kind of a lot."
What does Michigan State do defensively that's so effective in terms of bottling up Denard?
"I think they've done that to a lot of players, quarterbacks. I don't know a final statistic, but they have good players. They play extremely aggressive. The things that they like to do, sometimes can be higher risk and higher reward. It's a belief system they have. They tackle well. They do the things that you need to do in order to play good defense."
What do you feel like you need to do in order to become a Big Ten championship-level defense? Also, what is Raymon Taylor's status?
"Raymon got a little boo boo. He'll be probably okay, most likely. Turnovers. We need to do a better job of creating. We need to do a better job [putting] pressure on the quarterback with four guys. I don't think that's a strong suit of ours. That can help our secondary out. I think at times we're playing too far off the guys in coverage. So that's a start."
Gibbons seems a bit of a free spirit.
"What do you mean by that?"
Well, you know, last year at the Sugar Bowl about the brunettes and stuff, not that I don't agree with him, but …
How do you approach kickers? Do you stay away from them? Do you say something before a big kick? Are you superstitious? Where's your mind at? Do you go up to him and say, "Hey, we got this one?" Do you --
"I'm with those guys a little bit during practice. I'm not a kicking coach, but it's kind of like golf, which I'm probably a pretty good golfer ... if I would do it. Those guys, they know what they need to do and how they need to do it. I think them going up to the stadium during the week is helpful because the wind in there's a little different, especially with the new stuff up there. I think it's a little different. You know, both those kids, we have a lot of confidence in. And anything else, when you show confidence, kids are going to respond. Not that you don't rip them once in a while, but I decided when they called the time out, I was just going to watch Gibby do his thing. I don't know. There's no magic to it."
As well as Michigan State's defense played, you maybe missed a couple opportunities for big plays (dropped pass, missed a block, etc.). Were you disappointed by the execution?
"Oh. I think you could go through every game and there's going to be execution. We didn't block down once on a run play that may have been pretty open. We don't block down. Why? I don't know. 113,999 or whatever it was? A good defense that you're playing against. You want to see them all execute, but no one has ever played a perfect game. No one will ever play a perfect game. They're 18-22, 23 years old. We're going to try and prepare them and remind them and do all those things and grow them right, and then … go play hard."
Dileo said on the radio that he thought the kick was going wide right. What was your view?
"I watch the people sitting behind the goal post. Because they'll tell you. I'll be honest with you. You can't see it from [the sideline]."
Kovacs said this was the monkey off the back for you guys. Does it feel like that's what this was for the program, preventing them from beating you five years in a row?
It's not more meaningful than a "Yeah"?
"It's an in-state rival. But we have bigger expectations."
Did you feel like the icing-the-kicker timeout helped you or hurt you?
"I think we were well prepared. Denard did a tremendous job spiking the ball. The field goal team was there. Dan Ferrigno was there, our special teams coach, had all those guys right there ready to go. I think it's a strategy that can work. Can't work. You know? Flip a coin."
What made you go back to Gibbons rather than Wile?
"Because it was his range. We had talked about distance, and it was his range, and he's more consistent than Matt has been in practice at that range."

Wednesday Presser Transcript 10-17-12: Brady Hoke
- Elliott Mealer mentioned that the scout team does something "extra" for motivation. Hoke, unsurprisingly, does not reveal what that is.
- UPDATE: It is THIS. [h/t indyeagle]
- Drake Johnson is playing running back for the scout team. So is Norfleet.
- This was the shortest presser ever, so there is no jump.
Brady Hoke
Opening remarks:
"Good practice yesterday I think on both sides of the ball. I liked how we competed with each other. Thought that, you know, when you put in the plan and sometimes Tuesday's a little more thinking, I thought we reacted well and I thought we had a good tempo and were playing fast."
You've practiced well in previous weeks, but is the focus more intense during a rivalry week?
"Well I think it's been a continuation, but I also would agree that when you play in a rivalry game, there's always a little more intensity to it."
Did you do anything different in practice?
"Not really. I mean, uh … no."
On the scout team?
"They … know their role, so they practice hard."
How has the scout team been this year?
"I think, you know, it probably would have been a little better if we didn't have some of those guys dinged up, like Wormley or Chris Bryant. Whether they'd be up or down, just your ability with depth and those things. But I think they've worked hard. We give an award out every week to guys on each side of the ball, and who in the kicking game does a great job, giving looks, so. I think they're doing a good job. I think they're motivated. Our young coaches, our GA's do a good job of prepping them each week with watching film and mechanics and all that stuff."
Do you have them wearing green during the week?
"Uh, you know, sometimes you do."
With the way Le'Veon Bell is size-wise, do you have a particular guy on the scout team mimic him?
"No. You know, Drake Johnson gets most of the heavy lifting. Fleet gets down there to run some, but we don't have anybody that size that you would use for that."
Would you say Taylor Lewan has lived up to the expectations for him this season?
"I think he's played pretty solid."
The secondary is ranked third in the nation in pass defense. Is that because they're playing that well or have they just not been tested enough?
"Well, I don't know if we've been tested, you know. We haven't had balls thrown down the field vertically in the pass game. I think this will -- since early in the year …"
You mentioned how --
"… really Alabama, to be honest with you. So I think that's all part of it, where we're playing a lot of spread teams that want to use the bubbles and want to use those things. I think that's a fair assessment. I think we haven't been tested yet."
Are you interested in seeing how they stack up against a downfield passing team?
"Oh sure. Sure. I mean, I don't know. I like the bubble screens and stuff like that."
Does it speak at least a little bit to how your safeties have been playing?
"That's a big deal. It's made all the time. We want to be inside and in front. It's a big part of whether you're playing two-deep or playing single high, you have to do a good job of if you're the guy, you have to keep your depth and be the last one to the party. I think those two guys have been a catalyst, and I think J.T. has improved every week."
Are any of the ACL injury guys close to practicing?
Are they in rehab?
"Rehab. They're doing fine. Some of them are at different levels."
Do you think any of those guys will be able to practice by the end of the year?
"Probably not."
Assessment of Michigan State's defensive line without Jerel Worthy?
"Well I think they've filled it in pretty well. I think they're very aggressive. I think Ted Gill, their D-line coach, who was one of my coaches at Ball State in college, has done a nice job of developing that group. That style defense is such that it's an aggressive defense."
You mentioned you have some guys wearing green…
"At times there is green out there … We have grass. Field turf."
Tuesday Presser Transcript 10-16-12: Al Borges
Al Borges
"What's up?"
MGo: Not much.
MGoActually: I have a technical question.
"Oh no."
MGoAwComeOn: Would you rather me ask it now or later.
"You're going to ask it one way or another, so ... shoot the moon."
MGoQuestion: That play where the tight end blocks down and the two linemen pull and go outside of him. What's that play called?
"… Oh. It's just a horn scheme. Down and around type deal."
MGoFollowup: Is there an advantage to doing that vs. running a zone stretch?
"Um, yeah, it's just two different looks to give the defense based on how they're playing, you know. They could be playing one style, and that's a better way to block it. A lot of it is personnel, too. How well does your tight end handle the down blocks? If they're playing another scheme you're better off zoning. You really -- I've learned over the years you kind of have to have both. We have both. We have the ability ability to do both. In certain games one's more prominent than the other."
MGoThankYouThatWasAGreatAnswerBrianWillBePleasedButHereIsOneMore: Who would you say is your best blocker at tight end?
"I think they're all pretty good at this point. I think Devin Funchess has improved the most. I don't have any reservations about doing it with any of them. Now to be honest with you, that was a concern at the beginning, but I don't know if I'd favor one over the other at this point."
Tuesday Presser Transcript 10-16-12: Greg Mattison
Greg Mattison
Opening remarks:
"This is the week you look for. This is a big week for us, and you know, I know our guys are going to prepare that way. I think as a football program, we're very very excited about this challenge."
Can you talk about the emphasis on physicality this week?
"There's no question about it. I think last year if you look back, that's something that kind of sticks with us the entire year. They took it to us. You can cut it any way you want. They lined up, ran the football, and knocked us off the football and we don't like that. We don't believe in that at Michigan. It's going to be that kind of game. It's going to be a very physical football game."
Do you feel like that game motivated your defense the rest of the way?
"Oh no. I don't think -- any time you don't play well, I hope you don't use that for motivation. I think if anything, it emphasized that each and every week you must play physical. You can't go out there anytime and think we're Michigan, we're going to play. In this league, against the people we play each and every week, you have to bring your a game."
Monday Presser Transcript 10-15-12: Brady Hoke
Bullets of informative information:
- Michigan State. This is a rivalry game. Rivalries are important.
- Vincent Smith getting held out for his hamstring was precautionary. May be back this week. Maybe not.
- Hopkins is "back."
- Frank Clark's decreased playing time was due to rotation, not due to injury.
- Denard is fine.
"You know, obviously it was a great team win the other night. Played well as a team. Played together. Probably our most complete game when you look at the offense and defense. In the kicking game I thought we did some very good things. Had some penalties that we don't want to have when you look at hitting the returner late and we had two defensive offsides penalties that we need to be a little more poised and a little more composed about that. A couple dropped passes. I think we were 9 of 14 on third downs, probably could have been 11 of 14. Missed assignments, I think we had 10 of them on offense. Defensively, early in the game I thought they ran the ball a little too well, so we have to do a better job with the integrity of gaps and getting off blocks. Best we've played, but a long way from playing championship football, so we have a lot of work to do. We'll go back to work.
"This is a great week because it's a rivalry game and those are always special, always fun. At the same time it's another championship game, which we've started that run two weeks ago. We have to prepare like we have, and I think we will because we've done a nice job to this point and the maturity of our team – I think we are maturing, so we just have to keep going forward."
Illinois Postgame Presser Transcript: Players
Something came up yesterday and I had to drive to Cincinnati, which is why this is late. I will post today's presser transcript later this afternoon/evening. Apologies for the whacky timing.
Desmond Morgan and Denard Robinson
Opening remarks about Gerald Ford's jersey:
Morgan: "I'd just like to say it's quite an honor and privilege not only to represent a former Michigan player -- obviously left his legacy on the program, was a standout person and player -- but on top of that the President of the United States. It's an honor, and I'm going to wear it proud."
Denard, what did you hurt and were you scared that it was going to be more serious than it turned out to be?
Denard: "No, it was just a boo boo. I mean, everybody gets hurt, so I mean, it was all good. I came back in and it didn't bother me at all."
What's 'it?'
Denard: "It didn't bother me. I don't know. It was nothing. Funny bone. Nothing serious."
Denard, can you talk about the defense and how much you feel like you can rely on them?
Denard: "Uh, I think every great team has to have a great defense. It starts with the defense, to be honest with you. If they can stop people, we could score three points and win the game if they shut them out. They're playing well and it was a team effort."
