This week in Parliament I pressured the Government on its proposed changes on how fracking is regulated in the UK. Most people who have contacted me in recent months are backing my proposal for no fracking wells to be drilled within two kilometres of any town or village. I supported amendments that would close loopholes around environmental regulations and require greater transparency about the fluids used in fracking and the resulting methane gas emissions. Considering the importance of drilling safety I also backed measures which would make independent well inspections obligatory for all sites. I will continue to support efforts which force the Government to improve safety and will also work to ensure that my proposal of a two kilometre zone around villages and towns is respected.
Last week the Chancellor George Osborne presented his Autumn Statement to Parliament. The Chancellor is planning spending cuts on a scale that would take us back to the 1930s in terms of our public services. Huge cuts to our armed forces and public sector jobs will turn us into a ten bob country – a situation I am not willing to accept.
The Church of England deserves praise this week for taking a stand against food poverty in the UK. It has released a report warning that people are going hungry in the UK because of low pay, inequality and cruel benefits sanctions. The Government should take heed of the Church's warnings and realise that its current policies are morally unjust. One Baroness dismissed the report and stated that people went hungry because 'poor people don't know how to cook.' This is pure arrogance – the Baroness should know that most people who use food banks later donate to one. Those are British values.
Occasionally I receive a letter from a local person that leaves me completely stunned and shaken. Sadly, over the past few months I have mostly been taken aback by horrible accounts of child abuse in Nottinghamshire and the rest of the country. This week however I would like to share the details of one local person who has battled through a difficult life to become an outstanding role model.
Rebecca from Mattersey was diagnosed at the age of 11 with anorexia. At one stage her medical condition was so bad that she was hospitalised and doctors feared that her heart would stop. Her life was saved however by 'Freed Beeches', a charity based in Worksop. They provide a free support and counselling service and also work to educate young people about eating disorders. Early intervention, education and support really do save lives as Rebecca knows only too well. She is now dedicating herself to raising awareness of eating disorders and supporting Freed Beeches. Next June she is climbing Ben Nevis to raise money for the charity and I am sure that many readers will want to join me in supporting her. Please get in touch on 01909 506200 and I will pass on details of how to sponsor Rebecca. Anyone who wants more information about the treatment that Freed Beeches offers should also contact me on the same number.

God frequently uses my children to keep me humble. Today however, on my forty-somethingish birthday, I am kept in my right place by a Mount Everest-sized pimple positioned right next to the most prominent wrinkle on my face.
Something is just not right about a huge zit and a deep crevice taking up residence on the same face…especially my own! How's a girl suppose to "treat" this situation? With makeup, I know, but do you you moisturize the wrinkle and risk exasperating the acne or do you treat the pimple at the expense of drying out the aging skin? Sheesh. It makes me think of a time, not so long ago, when we were raising toddlers and teenagers under the same roof.
I will give no more thought, however, to the mountain next to the deep rift on my face because today is my birthday. Today I will celebrate and be happy. Today marks the day that I am officially closer to the age of fifty than I am to forty. Weird. Is this what forty-six feels like? Looks like? I would not have thought so, even a decade ago. I guess I thought I would be much older by the time I reached this age.
I remember my own mom at the age I am now. She was only forty-four on my wedding day. Perception is influenced by perspective. On my wedding day, my mom was "middle-aged" and maybe "a bit fluffy". That was my perception twenty-five years ago. (Sorry Mom, I'm sure your grandchildren are vindicating you this very day through their own view of yours truly.) Today, I see that my mom was beautiful. She really was. I miss her, especially today. It was really her "birth" day after all. If my mom were still living, I'd take her to lunch to celebrate at a little tea room and I would tell her thank you for giving birth to me, for raising me, for praying by my bed at night and on the way to school in the mornings, and for teaching me to believe in Jesus and answered prayers.
My mom died young. It has been only eight years and even then I didn't realize how very young she really was. My Mama was sixty years old when she met Jesus. I'm a slow learner, but thanks be to God, at least I'm learning. From where I sit today, I can see a bit more clearly. Age is relative. Age is beautiful.
Lord, give me perspective, Your perspective. Today I turn forty-six. I look forward to growing old, but for today, I shall celebrate my "youth". From this vantage point I really am still so very, very young. …
I even have a pimple to prove it!

Barbara - I wish I were better informed. I suppose there were men who carried books or a book but I suspect with all they had to contend with they were few. As for letters- papers - etc that would have had to be a personal decision, I'd think.The Adjutant said that if the uncle was an enlisted man - that means that he could have held any rank from Private through any kind of Sergeant his clothing then belonged to the Army. He had not paid for those articles do they probably were not supposed to be returned.
I do not understand why his platoon did not know him unless he had been newly assignedfrom a different platoon in the unit he was with. And , yes, I would write to the person you have mentioned. I would also see if you could find a phone #. There are Web sites for phone #s. I usually use Switchboard. If there are a fewnames the same try them all. Sorry I wish I knew a lot more. Mary

algorithmic modeling for Rhino
Hi everyone,
Today I've uploaded a second video regarding the possibilities of doing an optimization using SSI for GSA, Galapagos and Grasshopper. Be sure to watch it in HD! The GH definition can be found in the attachement below.
This video deals with obtaining an optimization regarding the design of a tube bridge, inspired by the Harthill footbridge, the Greenside Place Link bridge and the Corporation street bridge. A solution is found using the Galapagos evolutionary solver in Grasshopper. An explanation is given on what can be varied and some results are discussed.

All IL21 reagents are produced in house and quality controlled, including 13 IL21 Antibody, 65 IL21 Gene, 1 IL21 Lysate, 5 IL21 Protein, 3 IL21 qPCR. All IL21 reagents are ready to use.
Recombinant IL21 proteins are expressed by E. coli, Baculovirus-Insect Cells with fusion tags as Native, C-His.
IL21antibodies are validated with different applications, which are ELISA, WB.
IL21cDNA clones are full length sequence confirmed and expression validated. There are 13 kinds of tags for each IL21 of different species, especially GFP tag, OFP tag, FLAG tag and so on. There are three kinds of vectors for choice, cloning vector, expression vector and lentivrial expression vector.
IL21 belongs to the IL-15/IL-21 family. It is a cytokine with immunoregulatory activity. Cytokines are proteinaceous signaling compounds that are major mediators of the immune response. They control many different cellular functions including proliferation, differentiation and cell survival/apoptosis but are also involved in several pathophysiological processes including viral infections and autoimmune diseases. Cytokines are synthesized under various stimuli by a variety of cells of both the innate (monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells) and adaptive (T- and B-cells) immune systems. IL21 is expressed in activated CD4-positive T-cells but not in CD8-positive T-cells, B-cells, or monocytes. It may promote the transition between innate and adaptive immunity. IL-21 has been tried as therapy for alleviating allergic responses. It can significantly decrease pro-inflammatory cytokines produced by T cells in addition to decreasing IgE levels in a mouse model for rhinitis (nasal passage inflammation)

December 28 – Achieve. What's the thing you most want to achieve next year? How do you imagine you'll feel when you get it? Free? Happy? Complete? Blissful? Write that feeling down. Then, brainstorm 10 things you can do, or 10 new thoughts you can think, in order to experience that feeling today.
What do I want most? Get published three times in scholarly journals! Namely, in order that I envision the papers coming along, Molecular Microbiology, Journal of Biochemistry, and then finally Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
How will I feel? Seriously? Is that a legitimate question here? I am going to feel fucking awesome!!!
Ten things I can do to get there? Oy vey…here comes the trouble.
- Figure out what alternative pathway hda seems to be mucking around with, either genetically or biochemically.
- Purify a bunch (more) Hda protein and demonstrate that it definitely impairs translesion synthesis DNA polymerases.
- Demonstrate that Hda is able to stabilize the replication fork and alter the ability for other accessory proteins to interact with the complex.
- Show biochemically that my mutant library is composed of both RIDA-competent and RIDA-incompetent mutants.
- Get a crystal structure of Hda, or a co-complex of Hda with the ß-subunit of DNA polymerase III.
- Selectively break interactions of Hda with other accessory proteins, and restore those interactions by compensatory mutations on said accessory proteins.
- Genetically demonstrate the ability to block and/or promote these interactions with mutants.
- Demonstrate the blatant redundancy of the initiation regulation pathways in cellular viability.
- Demonstrate that accessory functions of the initiation regulators were the evolutionary pressure for adoption as opposed to control of initiation.
- Make the grand corollary of what all this means in the greater scheme of breaking the microbial replication cycle and propose a new, unique pathway of antimicrobial targets.
Nobody said I couldn't be dreaming when I thought all of this up. But it's an entirely possible order if the experiments go in my favor…

I finally have a reason to blog again. Unfortunately it's for a bad reason. I got a call at work today from my dad. He told me that they took my grandpa off of all the machines that he was connected to. So now, it's just a matter of waiting. It sucks to lose a loved one, and it's harder because he's not gone yet. He's still there, struggling, alive, but not really. Going to the hospital is rough, everyone's just...waiting. Every now and then he'll get congested and start to half-cough/weeze/gurgle and we get paniced because...we're not ready. It's hard to see a man who has been such an integral part of my life go through this. Grandma and him put me on the bus everyday. He took me back to the woods. He made bad jokes. He got his facts all wrong when retelling a story. Just last week I played Euchre with him. At least he won't be in pain anymore. I don't even know if he is in pain now. I just know it hurts to see him like this. I've never lost anyone this close to me before. My other grandpa was a more distant figure. I was younger when he died, and never got as close, and it was quick. This is hard. My poor mom.

I'm back
I meant to blog sooner, but things got crazy. I took a hiatus when Rachael's grandfather died, because I couldn't blog in Pennsylvania, and then fell out of the habit. Anyway, a lot has happened since I've been away from the fort. I've moved, discovered the joys of playing guitar on the playstation, seen friends who've moved away. Life's been good. Anyway, sorry for the hiatus. When I'm feeling up to it I'll do a post on immigration, because suddenly it's really important that something be done, and that means that Congress will work together to find a way to pass a measure that will please no one. The joys of compromise. Anyways, later days.

Bleh Days
It looks like I'm going to take off of work on Friday and head up to Pennsylvania. I wish it was for something good, but unfortunatly Rachael's grandpa died, so I'm going to go to his funeral. So it'll be slow posting for a couple of days at least. Until then, this story about a random road trip, to of all places Iraqi Kurdistan is pretty neat.

Whoo Hoo!
Hurrah! I have figured out how to put a title onto my blog posts. Now if I could only start a blog roll with links to all my favorite blogs. Someday...someday. Well, I have nothing else of note to say, but I can give you a link to something amusing. Here is a funny debate about whether a childs blue hat can be called a "boys hat." Or something like that. It sort of reminds me of when people hit reply all to an e-mail that was sent to everyone at my place of buisness asking to be removed from the universal list. Oh world, you do make me laugh.
A SHORT MESSAGE TO CAMPUS POLICE: Dear Campus Police officer on duty 3:30 Sunday afternoon, you really don't have to be such a jerk. This whole year I've been getting a visitor pass until Monday morning, and have had no problems from anyone. Don't tell me "you don't need one" I know I need one, because I've needed one every Sunday-Monday. You made the whole process unnecessicarly difficult, just to be an ass. You succeeded. But really, stop being a jerk on a power trip. Ok, now I have to drive to work...

IMMIGRATION: I have been hesitating dipping into the big nasty issues, but I guess I have to start sometime. I'm fairly conflicted about the immigration debate in some respects. I'm certainly no immigration restrictionist. My adoptive cousins are all technically immigrants, hailing from a wide range of countries, and I love them dearly. I love America and I think it should be fairly easy to get here and to stay here. But then again, I want people who come here to come here legally, even if it is frustrating and messy. Anyways, Mark Steyn has a good take in the Chicago Sun Times, and it can be found here.
RANDOM THOUGHTS AFTER WATCHING THE BBC: How come the Brit awards feature such notables as Lenny Kravitz, Kelly Clarkson, Kanye West and Jack Johnson? Sure they're hyping Coldplay, Gorillaz and James Blunt, fine English bands/muscians, but the rest? Kelly Clarkson is an American idol. Kanye hates George Bush sure, but I'd bet he isn't a Blair man either, and besides, there's no denying he's an American. Jack Johnson is a Hawaiian beach bum. Lenny Kravitz, also American (although I did have to look that up...I could have believed he was English, there's just something about him). It just seems sort of ridiculous, especially after the commercial states "Nobody rocks like the Brits, so watch the Brit awards featuring [previous list]. Have you no sense of irony BBC? And that brings me to Madonna...oh Madonna...I know you've moved to England. I know your very happy with Guy Ritchie who is actually British. But let me be frank with you, if you're reading this Madonna (and I know you're not)...nobody, and I mean nobody buys the accent. It just makes you kind of foolish. Consider this an intervention. Also, assuming you're still reading this (if you ever were)...give my kudos to Guy Ritchie, Lock Stock was very good, and Snatch was excellent.

I was going to post something on the Gospel of Judas, which I find fascinating from a historical perspective. But David Kopel of the Volokh Conspiracy who is certainly more intelligent and well informed than I am has written a good post on it here. When I was in college my roommate and I would have heresy days where we would believe in various heresies. Gnosticism was interesting, if not exactly loads of fun to be for a day. It was certainly not hard to accept (if only for a day), that Jesus asked Judas to betray him. It's easier to believe that the canonical version. Why would a friend of Jesus have him killed? I mean, it's Jesus. There's too many hard questions there. But the gnostic version is easy, fewer questions. Anyways, read Kopel's piece if anyone out there is interested in that sort of thing.

I know what you're thinking...a third post! It's pretty crazy around here. In this post I hope to give a preview of topics to come. To people who know me know I love politics first and foremost, and a good debate secondmost. So in the near future I hope to do some political blogging and maybe someone will comment and have something thought provoking to say or something. Maybe they'll just call me something foul anonymously. Either way, then I would know I wasn't just talking to myself. Anyways, future topics will include: immigration, the Senate and its mind numbingly stupid procedural rules, philosophical determinism, the Gospel of Judas and gnosticism, and a controversial issue to be named later. Oh, and maybe a good funny video clip or something. I like to be entertained. Anyway, thanks for reading my new blog. It already has 2 more comments than all my old blogs combined! I think I have a keeper.
Alright, a second post...that's almost a new record! Today at lunch, Burb came up with (what I believe to be) a new word: Bligamist. It's a good word to describe a person with multiple blogs. He is surely a bligimist, but he coined it because of me. I have to say, having thought far too hard about the idea of bligamy, I don't think I am. I have had many blogs, but they've all been one night stand sort of things. Never two blogs or more blogs at the same time. So what does that make me? A blut? Obviously I'm not as awesomely creative as Burb. But if anyone cares to coin a new word for someone who creates and then discards blogs with relish let me know in the comments.
...oh, and does anyone know how I get a title to my posts? I am too dumb to figure it out...

Pinterest employs AWS to control a number of petabytes of knowledge and carry out everyday refreshes of its significant search index.
Fig 2 Summarised associations concerning recent utilization of person NSAIDs and hazard of hospital admission for coronary heart failure, as opposed with earlier usage of any NSAID. Estimates (with 95% self confidence intervals) were being obtained by summarising database particular odds ratios (supplied not less than two were being out there) by use from the random consequences meta-analytic solution.
Other pages are specially designed to handle dynamic facts, sorts, and record details throughout the system. This area clarifies the differing types of webpages And just how they relate to the site in general.

Think about the portion on that's utilizing the CMS and also the dynamic catalog group demo (login as a procedure administrator):
Next, validity of result ascertainment might be of problem for the reason that coronary heart failure is often connected to other cardiovascular illnesses (eg, myocardial infarction), which could have an effect on how healthcare facility discharge codes are recorded. Yet, While privateness problems inhibited the validation of documents in many collaborating databases, the good predictive price for heart failure clinic admissions included in the Italian OSSIFF database was identified to get eighty% (ninety five% self esteem interval 66% to 90%). Moreover, high good predictive values are actually described by other investigations dependant on healthcare databases for heart failure analysis codes at hospital discharge considered within our study.

Bitstamp and other Bitcoin Exchange Services Suffer from Hacking Attacks
Following reports of a hacking activity on UK-based Bitcoin exchange Bitstamp last January 5, the company announced that all its services will be temporarily suspended until it has resolved security predicaments. The company also warned users not to send deposits to previously issued Bitcoin deposit addresses.
As a security contingency measure, Bitstamp only keeps a small fraction of customer bitcoins in their online systems. Large portions are maintained as offline reserves, thus, the company has more than enough to make up for the lost bitcoins.
Though customers are supposed to be relieved by this, it still doesn't change the fact that the company has been down for three days and the inconvenience it is causing may be irreparable for some.
One user, for instance, demanded to know why he has been restricted to withdraw his cash, his email posted on Reddit. Bitstamp's trading services may be down, but a user's money in his bank account is a different story. The bitcoins compromised may just be a tiny fraction, but the intensity of its effect to users is massive.
The customer then received an email template response instead of a more personal reply, stating that the technical and accounting issues related to his request would be too great of a risk since the website is still restoring all its services as a whole. Unfortunately, Bitstamp didn't state the exact schedule of its re-launch.
To wait for the company to just do their thing is easier said than done. In fast-paced societies where cryptocurrencies are expected to be spontaneous in all its transactions, this scenario is unacceptable.
However, Bitstamp's case is not isolated. HashProfit and BetMoose have just experienced the same thing, the latter of which just recovered from a sustained DDos attack on its production server. BetMoose's hacker goes by the name of DD4BC, which was the same alleged hacker of Bitcoin casino sites like Nitrogen Sports back in July 2014.
The attacker also used the familiar DD4BC Bitcoin extortion trick to BetMoose as it did with Nitrogen Sports. While it asked for 2BTC initially from the latter, it only asked for 1 BTC from the former.
BetMoose claims that the attack has since stopped, but considering that the hacker's extortion attempts with Nitrogen Sports lasted a few months, it can be hard to say.
Incidents like these happening almost all the same time signify a greater dilemma in the future of Bitcoin as a supposed-to-be safe and secure way to transact on the internet, and it highlights the fact Bitcoin gamblers seek security too. Will the consecutive cases of attacks affect how users see cryptocurrencies as part of a more mainstream usage?

Early days with the camera
If you are in the media it is a good idea not to spend time at a bar with a journalist. What I thought was a social occasion emerged as a series of stories based on some of my conversation and given a lot of polish. It was true Julie and I were not long back from six months overseas exploring and shooting Europe. I started doing a night time radio shift but was fortunate to be promoted to drive and later breakfast at a station that was the most successful in the country during this time. While the fashion of the era is something I would like to forget I still have my trusty Canon FTB and that Tamron zoom hidden in a drawer somewhere.

According to the report, fire officials say a fire on Lori Lane began Sunday when a Swagway Smart Balancing Board exploded and caught fire.
The blaze caused little damage, but fire officials are still urging people to avoid purchasing the product until the problem has been fixed, the report said.

Stamping as Fast as I Can!
Cards and Crafts
Saturday, November 12, 2011
Happy Saturday!
Aloha, happy Saturday. I had such a nice day today. The nicest part was spending it with my sweet daughter. I also got to cross something else off my bucket list. I was able to find a beautiful sunrise shell at a school craft fair! Sunrise shells are found only in the waters around the Hawaiian Islands so it means a lot to me.
I made this little card for Kelly to give to her teachers that wrote college rec letters for her. The owl is from the Cricut cartridge, Hoot and Holler, the sentiment is from Verve, and the design papers are from My Minds Eye. I cut the owl from various scraps I had in my basket. It is a small card, 3.5X4.25, perfect to attach to the little gift.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Tampa Fishing Charters ; Reports from our Captains
Tampa Bay Fishing Charter Report: Capt. Jared Simonetti
March fishing has been fantastic and the weather is in full Spring fashion. Fishing is starting to heat up, and as the air temp gets hotter so will the fishing. Tarpon fishing is just around the corner and snook are already making their way out to the beaches. Bait is slowly starting to show up on the flats, and it will only be a few weeks till it is covering the flats. Redfish have been the main targets for march with some trips producing quality size fish and decent numbers of fish.
The large gator trout that our Clearwater area is known for are still around and will be around till about the end of the month. April is starting to look really good with the way things are going now – Snook and giant Tarpon will be my main focus, with some Mackerel action thrown in. If you are thinking about crossing a Big Tarpon or a Huge Snook off your bucket list now is the time to do it! Call us to plan your fishing charter!
Tampa Deep Sea Fishing Charters Report ; Capt. Treg Renoud
Capt. Treg has been reporting good numbers of catches aboard the 24′ Rampage. Fishing offshore of St Petersburg beach they have been catching Key west grunts, black and red grouper, Sharks of various species, tilefish, and other species.

The Bangladeshi market proved to be the only bright spot in an otherwise gloomy international ship-recycling sector as fresh impetus pushed prices onwards and confidence returned to the buying and bidding in Chittagong.
With India, Pakistan and China, all struggling due to capacities, currencies and ailing steel prices - Bangladesh propped up as the only market with some impressive busing - turning many heads in the process (for deals that may have otherwise been focused into competing locations).
The eye-catching deal of the week concerned Hosco's converted VLCC to VLOC, HEBEI AMBITION (38,720 LDT) was committed for a remarkable USD 480/LT LDT. As always, the ship was reported to be in excellent condition - that makes it SEVEN for the year sold from the North China Shipping stable into the Bangladesh market.
Of course, the question on everybody's lips is how much longer can Bangladesh sustain this sort of impressive showing? With many of the better end buyers swiftly filling their yards, finance could once again become an issue, and the focus will - as always - have to shift elsewhere.

Keep This in Mind When Selecting a Grade for Your Stainless Steel
Stainless steel is a popular metal. Its special attributes make it useful in both domestic and commercial applications. Despite its high tensile strength and levels of hardening, you can still count on stainless to be malleable and workable. This allows you to cut, bend and manipulate the material in several ways. However, this will depend on the grade of stainless steel that you choose. The grades are fabricated using different techniques, an element that leads to variations in their tensile strength and other characteristics. Here are the things you should keep in mind when choosing a grade for your stainless steel:
Welding Considerations
Welding is necessary for bonding and creating metal joints. When working on your project, think about the number of weld joints that you will need so that you can identify the stainless steel grade you will use in different sections of the project. For the best results, consider steel grades that fall under the authentic steel family. Good examples are the grade 347 and 304L. Grade 347 has a high amount of niobium stabilisers while grade 304L contains less carbon, attributes that make both of these grades suitable for welding. Other steel grades that are friendly to the weld include grade 439 and 430.
Corrosion Resistance
Steel is prone to attack by various forms of corrosion. This include crevice, pitting, and stress corrosion. Stainless steel is manufactured with all these forms of corrosion in mind. Nevertheless, different grades offer varying levels of corrosion resistance. For the best corrosion resistance, go for grade 304 or 316. These grades are similar because they have high levels of chromium content. In fact, grade 316 is slightly better because its chemical composition contains molybdenum. Avoid Ferritic steels because of small chromium percentages that compromise their ability to resist corrosion.
Strength Considerations
You should also consider the amount of strength that you will get from the steel grade that you choose. Some applications such as rebar for construction require high tensile strength when compared to other lightweight applications. If strength is a priority in your project, then consider choosing martensitic grades such as 440C. Stainless steel grades hardened by precipitation can also do a great job in terms of tensile strength. Examples of such grades include 17-4PH and 15-5 PH. For mid-range tensile strength, go for austenitic grades such as 316. They combine ductility and strength quite well, making them strong but easy to bend and manipulate.
Contact a stainless manufacturing company for more information and assistance.

When it comes to job creation, Orlando is number one in Florida and Florida is the top US state, the latest market data shows.
Based on daily tracking interviews, Gallup ranks the Orlando metro area top for 2015 job creation, with more than half of employers (53%) say they are hiring, while just 8% are either not hiring or reducing numbers.
As you would expect from the top tourist center in the United States, most job growth came in the leisure and hospitality sector.
The employer job creation intentions were underlined by the latest Florida state job figures, showing Orlando created 53,900 new private-sector jobs in the year to January 2016, more than any other metro.
In announcing the figures, Florida Governor Rick Scott says, "Orlando is leading the state in job creation with more than 53,000 new jobs created for families over the year. More than one million jobs have been created in Florida in only five years, and we have cut more than $1billion in taxes over the past two years."
Garrett Kenny, Chief Executive Officer of leading Central Florida developer and agent, Feltrim Group, says strong jobs growth is yet another major reason for international real estate buyers to invest in real estate in and around Orlando.
"Combine a strong employment sector with the world's best theme parks, top tourist attractions and entertainment centers and real estate capital values rising around 10% a year and you have a market that is sure to attract buy-to-let investors.
"Feltrim Group has seen a growing level of inquiries and sales from investors in China, the UK, Brazil, the United Arab Emirates and elsewhere in Europe, Asia and South America."

Baton Rouge Shooting Ranges
When looking for a shooting range in Baton Rogue, you've got a number of options. Most of the ranges are indoor ranges, which is a good thing on a hot and humid Louisiana day, plus target carriers mean less walking. Baker Range even advertises that you can "Shoot anything but a bazooka!"
With such great options to choose from for Baton Rogue shooting ranges, keep in mind a couple of things. You always want to call early for range availability, to check up on any range rules, and to ask any questions you might have before going down. While some ranges have few restrictions, others require membership or that you purchase range ammunition and so forth. Again, if you've got questions, call ahead.
Browse reviews our users have left, and after you've tried out a range, please leave one yourself! We're always glad to hear from you here at ArmsDealer.

Hi Teachers!
Did you know that the prairie and savanna once covered 222 million acres of land across Central Canada and the USA? This was an area almost equal to the total land mass of Ontario. And today, with less than one percent of this grassland habitat remaining, it is one of the world's most endangered ecosystems.
The land was covered with tall grass prairies and oak savanna, dominated by Black and White Oak. Grasses like Big Bluestem, Indian Grass and Switchgrass grew more than two metres high and a diverse range of wildflowers blossomed.

In Northumberland County, the Rice Lake Plains is an area of approximately 100,000 acres of land located at the eastern end of the Oak Ridges Moraine, southeast of Peterborough.
The prairies have become fragmented and the partners of the Rice Lake Plains Joint Initiative are working together to try to restore some of this precious ecosystem.
Map of area - right
In addition, one of our objectives is to work with the schools in the area to create an awareness of the importance of the Rice Lake Plains, habitat for many species which, without it, are at risk.
The Eastern Hog-nosed Snake (photo right), Milksnake and Eastern Ribbonsnake are all species at risk.

The Alderville First Nations Black Oak Savanna Ecology Centre is now open and home to many of the workshops and events held to promote the importance of this fragile ecosystem. The following programs are available at the Alderville Black Oak Savanna Ecology Centre or in your own classroom.
- Butterfly Bonanza: Immerse yourself in the life cycle of a butterfly through a creative movement sequence and a special craft. Enjoy a puppet show and explore the significance as the butterfly as a symbol in indigenous cultures. Learn butterfly anatomy and look at migration patterns. Help to facilitate the comeback of our extirpated friend, the Karner Blue Butterfly by examining the specific habitat requirements and taking action hands-on. For K-6 students, 2- 3 hours in duration.
- Biodiversity on the Plains: Learn about the enormous diversity of plants, mammals, insects, birds, and herptiles in prairie and savanna habitats. Explore the interrelationships of predators and prey through an outdoor action game, use all your senses on an interpretive hike and at a very special 'Magic Spot' and play a rousing game of Biodiversity Bingo! For grade 4-6 students, 2-3 hours in duration.
- Fire Ecology: Ever wondered how fire alters the natural succession of an ecosystem? Why are prairie plants dependent on fire? How does the soil change after a fire? What special adaptations have plants and animals evolved to withstand fire? An exciting program exploring the cultural and ecological significance of fire in prairie and savanna restoration. We will use traditional fire-making methods to ignite curiosity and our flame as we journey together into the spirit of the fire. For Grade 7-12 students, 2.5 hours in duration.
Coming soon: Insects of prairie and savanna habitats!
College and University classes (specifically those from environmental studies and science, resource management, biology, geography, and Native studies) are also welcome. Talk to us about your specific requirements.
A curriculum-linked integrated Environmental Studies Program, Project Prairie, is being developed to be distributed to teachers on the Rice Lake Plains in Fall 2011. The program is divided into 5 sections: Biodiversity, Fire Ecology, Mapping, Species at Risk, and Stewardship.
Additional resources available for teachers include maps, videos, colouring books, posters, pamphlets, magnets, and bookmarks

The rest of this chapter focuses on the client code and techniques used in Flash Remoting, but let's take a moment to discuss the entire process. Flash Remoting enables you to make a request to the application server, have the server process the data using business logic, and return the results back to the client. The request/response system of Remoting works similarly to the technique of calling a remote FlashCom method, as discussed in Chapter 9. The process is asynchronous as well, so the results are not immediately returned but trigger an event in the client. However, unlike FlashCom remote methods, Flash Remoting calls use a non-persistent connection and use the HTTP protocol to communicate. Instead of sending RTMP data over the network, Remoting uses Action Message Format (AMF).
AMF is a binary message format modeled after SOAP, a protocol designed to exchange structured data in a distributed environment. SOAP uses XML tags to describe and package data and was designed to be abstract and versatile, which unfortunately resulted in the schema being complex and verbose. AMF was designed to be an efficient, compact format to pass ActionScript datatypes over the network. AMF uses binary flags to describe and package data. An AMF packet will always be smaller than an equivalent SOAP packet, which translates to faster response times and faster processing times when creating and processing AMF packets instead of SOAP.

Why Lindsey Scott's commitment could solidify LSU's standing with the nation's top recruiting class
LSU's 23rd commitment in the Class of 2016 came a day earlier than anticipated, and it could be the Tigers' most important to date.
Sure, LSU has a five-star defensive tackle currently in this class. On Wednesday, it could include the nation's No. 2 cornerback.
But anyone who has been paying attention to LSU football or recruiting is already well-aware of the fact that LSU's biggest question mark remains at the quarterback position.
Two months ago, the future of the Tigers' offense looked like it would revolve around Feleipe Franks, a 6-foot-6, 220-pound pro-style prospect who was seemingly a perfect fit for Cam Cameron's scheme.
However, Franks' flip to Florida left a gaping hole in LSU's 2016 class and an even more uncertainty as to where the team would turn at this stage in the process.
LSU went all in on Dwayne Haskins, then a Maryland commit, but with strong ties to the Tigers. Haskins also spurned LSU, flipping his commitment — but to Ohio State instead of the Tigers — almost erasing LSU's chances of having a quarterback in this year's class.
Queue up Lindsey Scott.
A three-star dual-threat prospect and previously a Syracuse commit, Scott was oft-mentioned as the state's most prolific athlete, despite the lack of major offers that usually coincide with that recognition.
Scott led Zachary High School (La.) to a state championship and prolific offensive numbers in the process. Scott amassed more than 5,000 yards of total offense alone this past season, including more than 3,000 yards and 33 touchdowns passing and another 2,000 yards and 28 touchdowns on the ground.
Those eye-popping statistics led to Scott being named Louisiana's Mr. Football and the Gatorade Player of the Year for the state.
With both Franks and Haskins out of the picture, LSU then rested its future on the chances of landing a commitment from Scott.
On Sunday morning as his official visit to Baton Rouge, La., wrapped up, LSU finally struck gold.
Scott committed to the hometown Tigers, giving LSU its quarterback of the future. Perhaps even more significant is the symbolic shift in offensive philosophies that the addition of Scott means.
Scott's coach, David Brewerton, told SEC Country last week that LSU coach Les Miles and Cameron pitched a potentially new-look offense that catered to Scott's skill-set.
Scott needed to believe that the Tigers would in fact adopt some more spread principles before committing, otherwise Maryland would be the better fit.
"When you watch LSU in the bowl game, they showed a lot more spread, shotgun concepts, so I think they're possibly looking into doing more of that in their offense," Brewerton explained.
"I think (the offense) would be intriguing to him," he added. "The general feeling is that LSU does what LSU does, and they won't deviate from that. So it comes down to whether Lindsey believes that'll be the case. That's the question that Lindsey has to decipher before making his decision."
Scott believed change is on the horizon, which is positive news for LSU fans that have often criticized Miles' and Cameron's offensive decision-making and playcalling.
On paper, LSU's three-star quarterback prospect may look like nothing more than another prospect in a talent-laden commitment list. However, Scott may ultimately be the key piece to the puzzle.

The hot, blue star HE 0437-5439 has been tossed out of the center of our Milky Way galaxy with enough speed to escape the galaxy's gravitational clutches. The stellar outcast is rocketing through the Milky Way's distant outskirts at 1.6 million miles an hour, high above the galaxy's disk, about 200,000 light-years from the center. The star is destined to roam intergalactic space.
A hundred million years ago, a triple-star system was traveling through the bustling center of our Milky Way galaxy when it made a life-changing misstep. The trio wandered too close to the galaxy's giant black hole, which captured one of the stars and hurled the other two out of the Milky Way. Adding to the stellar game of musical chairs, the two outbound stars merged to form a super- hot, blue star.
This story may seem like science fiction, but astronomers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope say it is the most likely scenario for a so-called hypervelocity star, known as HE 0437-5439, one of the fastest ever detected. It is blazing across space at a speed of 1.6 million miles hour, three times faster than our Sun's orbital velocity in the Milky Way. Hubble observations confirm that the stellar speedster hails from the Milky Way's core, settling some confusion over where it originally called home.

With such a diverse audience, branding for the event was key and so the decision was made to focus the staging design around a fully printed stage set. The set included two 15' widescreen projection screens. The screens sat either side of a central 8m stage area for the presenters and panel.
All the screen presentations were mixed in digital HD from MacBook Pro's running Prezi and distributed via SDI to two 7K Christie projectors. Two large 42" LCD screens were used as downstage presenter confidence monitors, with a further two 80" displays set to cover the extremities of the audience area so that everyone one had a clear view of the presentations.
The audience of 580 were spread across a wide area, so to ensure everyone could hear clearly, 10 flown KV2 ESD6 speakers with four ES10 on stands were utilised. All audio mixing and system time alignment was digital via a Behringer X32 desk.
The event organisers were keen to make the event as interactive as possible and so full use was made of Saville digital event services! To collect valuable, live opinion responses on the day, a 580 strong keypad voting system was used with the live results being overlaid onto the Prezi presentation. As a record for those who could not attend, the whole event was recorded using a two camera eStream system, which captured the presenters slides and live video for viewing on the clients website post event. The eStream system ensured that the recordings were perfectly synchronised and provided viewers watching via a standard browser an experience that closely resembled actually being in the room.
The event included an exhibition in a separate room so four 42" LCD screens were set-up to create a TwitterFall linked to the event twitter account so that everyone could be a part of the conversation. A series of "vox pop" interviews were also recorded here and edited into 30 separate clips for later use.

The sloping topography along with the coastal ecosystems has impressed many tourists visiting this beach.
Surga Beach lies next to many beaches, such as Ekas and Kuta, West Nusa Tenggara Indonesia. The beach is only about half an hour from Ekas Beach and 2 hours from Kuta Beach. Precisely, the beach is situated in the southern part of Lombok Island. It takes about 4 hours driving from Mataram. Although it is quite far from the main city of Mataram, the beach is worth visiting. The blue water of the beach and the white sand has made it one of the most beautiful beaches in Lombok. The beach has many offers for visitors. Complete facilities of hotels and villas, surfing points and unique cultures have made the beach potential for tourism. The government should develop the beach further into the best tourist destinations.

Other than surfing, you can swim or fish in the beach. Or you can shop souvenirs made of pearl in the shops near the beach.

The highlands of Iceland are so vast that it is almost impossible to capture it in just this one word: highlands (even if it is plural!). The highlands cover almost all of Iceland's interior or about 42.000 km2, which is about 40% of the country.
The whole of the area is inhabitable both due to its geological positioning, over 500 m above sea level, and lack of soil. Despite this fact, the landscape of the highlands is quite diverse. A big part of the area is located on an active volcanic belt, so hot springs, volcanoes and lava fields make up a big part of the scenery. But most of the glaciers of Iceland are also located within the territory so glacier rivers, waterfalls and gorges are also noticeable part of the region. The highlands of Iceland are very hard to access during the wintertime and highland roads are usually closed to traffic until the middle of June and then you still need a 4×4 vehicle to travel safely over the interior.

The Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL/IS) is disseminating "Wanted Dead" posters for several key al-Qaeda commanders, including the group's leader, Ayman al-Zawahiri, Arutz Sheva reported.
"On Sunday, ISIS released the most provocative poster yet, placing a bounty on the head of al-Qaeda's elusive leader, Ayman al-Zawahiri, who took over after the 2011 assassination of Osama Bin Laden by US Special Forces," the report revealed.
According to The Long War Journal, ISIS' official branch in Libya began distributing the posters online early this year.
"Jihadists connected to the Islamic State's branch in Libya have released dozens of wanted posters online in recent weeks," noted the Journal in mid-August. "The graphics identify the 'caliphate's' enemies, including the jihadists and Islamists who have opposed its expansion in North Africa."
"Many of the individuals shown in the posters belong to the Mujahideen Shura Council (MSC) in Derna, Libya," it added.
The MSC is an al-Qaeda affiliate that is currently fighting ISIS for control of Derna.
"The MSC has proven a tough adversary and has thwarted ISIS's attempts to take the city thus far," pointed out Arutz Sheva. "However, several of its leaders have indeed been successfully targeted since the ['Wanted Dead'] campaign started."
"Each time one is killed, the Islamic State's supporters release a new version of the graphic, changing the format and color to signify his death," explained The Long War Journal's August report, noting that the MSC is not the only Libyan militia that has been targeted by the "Wanted Dead" campaign.
One poster was reportedly disavowed by some senior Islamic State figures.
Alleged ISIS supporters in Libya released an online "Wanted Dead" poster for Mokhtar Belmokhtar, an al-Qaeda leader who swore allegiance to al-Zawahiri and leads al-Murabitoon, an al-Qaeda affiliate that operates in North and West Africa.
However, some Islamic State-linked accounts revealed that the poster for Belmokhtar "was not officially issued by the group," The Long War Journal reported, adding, "Not all of the posters are bluster, however."
Following a power struggle between Zawahiri and ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, ISIS officially broke off from al-Qaeda in February 2014.
Baghdadi proceeded to declare a "Caliphate" in ISIS-controlled areas in Syria and Iraq, naming himself "Caliph," or supreme Muslim leader.
Al-Qaeda was angered by the move and refused to recognize Baghdadi as Caliph.
"Since then, the two groups have been locked in a bloody war, particularly in Syria, with each referring to the other as 'apostates,'" reported Arutz Sheva.
"Still, an open call to kill al-Qaeda's leader–who is currently believed to be hiding in the mountainous Afghanistan-Pakistan border region–marks a new benchmark in the animosity between the two terrorist groups," it added.

CHICAGO (AP) — The St. Louis Cardinals became the first team to clinch a playoff berth this year despite losing 5-4 to the Chicago Cubs on Saturday.
San Francisco's loss to Arizona ensured the Cardinals at least an NL wild card. St. Louis has the best record in the majors at 92-56 and will play in the postseason for the fifth straight year. The Cardinals have made it at least to the NL Championship Series the last four seasons.
Jorge Soler and Kris Bryant hit back-to-back homers for Chicago, and tempers flared for the second consecutive game as the Cubs won their fifth straight to tighten the NL Central race.
Chicago is five games behind first-place St. Louis, which got a two-run homer from Matt Carpenter in the ninth. The Cubs are comfortably in position for a wild card.
Bryant's 25th homer tied the Cubs record for a rookie set by Billy Williams in 1961. Soler went deep for the first time since missing 23 games with a left oblique strain.
The Cubs used eight pitchers in a patchwork effort to cover for an empty spot in the rotation. The second pitcher, Trevor Cahill (1-3), earned his first win with the Cubs by pitching 3 1/3 scoreless innings.
Pedro Strop got three outs for his third save, aided by a diving play from shortstop Addison Russell to end it.
Michael Wacha (16-6) had won five of his previous six decisions.
NEW YORK (AP) — Carlos Beltran hit a three-run homer off a 100 mph (161 kph) fastball from Noah Syndergaard in the first inning and Michael Pineda pitched his best game in two months as the New York Yankees beat the Mets to rebound from an opening loss in the Subway Series.
Brian McCann added a two-run drive in the sixth, the Yankees' 200th home run this season, to quiet the sellout crowd of 43,630 at Citi Field.
Hoping to reach the postseason for the first time since 2006, the Mets have a seven-game lead in the NL East over Washington.
Trying to make the playoffs after their first two-year absence since the early 1990s, the Yankees moved within 3 1/2 games of first-place Toronto in the AL East. The Yankees also lead the wild-card race.
Pineda (11-8) allowed four singles in 5 1-3 innings to win for just the second time since the All-Star break.
Syndergaard (8-7) gave up five runs in six innings.
TORONTO (AP) — David Ortiz singled home the go-ahead run in a five-run ninth inning and Boston rallied to beat Toronto.
Jackie Bradley Jr. snapped an 0-for-21 slump with a tying double in the seventh, then tied it again with a two-run homer off Roberto Osuna (1-5) in the ninth.
It was the first time in 74 such situations this season that the Blue Jays lost when leading after eight innings.
Xander Bogaerts also homered for the Red Sox. Tommy Layne (2-1) got two outs and Robbie Ross overcame Jose Bautista's two-run homer in the ninth to earn his third save.
Edwin Encarnacion homered and had three RBIs for the Blue Jays, including a go-ahead single in the eighth.
ANGELS 4, TWINS 3, 12 innings, 1st game
ANGELS 5, TWINS 2, 2nd game
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Albert Pujols had two hits and two RBIs, and Garrett Richards was one out away from his second complete game this season as Los Angeles completed a sweep of a day-night doubleheader.
Mike Trout and Chris Iannetta added solo homers for Los Angeles (76-72), which won its third straight in the series and pulled a game ahead of Minnesota (75-73) in the AL wild-card race.
Richards (14-11) gave up five hits and two runs, including a solo homer to Trevor Plouffe.
Mike Pelfrey (6-10) allowed four runs on nine hits for Minnesota, which has lost five in a row at home.
Los Angeles took the first game of the doubleheader 4-3 when Kole Calhoun's liner eluded shortstop Eduardo Escobar's glove to allow Daniel Robertson to score from third in the 12th inning.
Mike Morin (3-1) struck out the only two batters he faced for the win. Huston Street earned his 37th save. Blaine Boyer (3-5) allowed an unearned run in 1 1/3 innings.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Bryce Harper tied the game with a sacrifice fly, then added insurance with his 41st homer — a two-run shot into the second deck in right field that earned "M-V-P!" chants — as Washington came back to beat Miami.
Harper entered the day leading the NL in homers, batting average and runs. His three RBIs raised his total to 95, putting him 17 behind Colorado's Nolan Arenado.
Jordan Zimmermann (13-8) allowed two runs over six innings, both in the first. Jonathan Papelbon got his 24th save.
Brad Hand (4-7) gave up three runs, four hits and six walks in 4 2-3 innings. He is 0-8 in 12 appearances — 10 starts — against the Nationals.
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Patrick Corbin pitched seven sharp innings and helped his own cause with an RBI single as Arizona blanked San Francisco.
Ender Inciarte had three hits and two RBIs, while David Peralta and A.J. Pollock added three hits apiece for Arizona. The Diamondbacks have won four of their last five against the defending World Series champs, and five straight at AT&T Park.
Corbin (6-4) ended his own skid in San Francisco after going winless in four previous starts at the ballpark. David Hernandez and Josh Collmenter completed Arizona's second consecutive shutout in the series.
Mike Leake (10-9) gave up three runs and eight hits over three innings, his shortest outing since 2013. Leake has won only one of his seven starts since being acquired from Cincinnati in late July.
ST. PETERSBURG, Florida (AP) — Chen Wei-yin pitched seven effective innings and Adam Jones drove in two runs as Baltimore beat Tampa Bay.
Chen (10-7) allowed one run and struck out seven. He ended his outing by escaping a two-on, no-out jam.
Darren O'Day worked a scoreless eighth before Zach Britton got three outs for his 34th save.
Erasmo Ramirez (10-6) took the loss.
ATLANTA (AP) — Freddie Freeman hit a two-run double in the eighth inning and Atlanta has won consecutive games for the first time since winning three straight in early August.
The Phillies have dropped five straight and 13 of 16
Freeman's opposite-field double off former starter Jerome Williams (4-11) went off the wall in left field when Sweeney appeared to misjudge the trajectory of the ball, allowing Nick Markakis to score from second and pinch-runner Pedro Ciriaco from first.
Edwin Jackson (3-3) earned the win after striking out one and facing the minimum in the eighth. Arodys Vizcaino earned his sixth save in seven chances after facing four batters in the ninth.
CLEVELAND (AP) — Carlos Rodon allowed one run while pitching into the eighth inning and Chicago defeated sloppy Cleveland.
Rodon (8-6) went 7 2/3 innings and beat Cleveland for the third time this season. Micah Johnson's fifth-inning single broke a 1-all tie, handing the Indians a costly loss as they attempt to remain in the race for the second AL wild card.
A wild pitch by Carlos Carrasco (13-11) and two misplays by rookie shortstop Francisco Lindor hurt Cleveland, which entered play trailing Houston by four games in the wild-card chase.
The game ended when Abraham Almonte was picked off first base by closer David Robertson.
The Indians (73-74), who also trail the Angels and Twins in the wild-card standings, have alternated wins and losses in their last seven games.
MILWAUKEE (AP) — Todd Frazier homered to become just the second Reds player with at least 40 doubles and 35 home runs in a season, helping rally Cincinnati past Milwaukee.
Brewers third baseman Elian Herrera was taken away on a backboard and stretcher after a collision in the eighth inning.
With two on and two outs in the eighth, Skip Schumaker hit a looping fly ball down the left field line. Herrera, left fielder Shane Peterson and shortstop Jean Segura all chased the ball, but Herrera and Peterson collided, with the ball falling between them. Herrera did not move for more than five minutes while being treated by Brewers trainers before being rolled onto his back. He left the field in an ambulance.
Eugenio Suarez scored and Schumaker ended up at second with a double.
Burke Badenhop (2-4) got the win, and Tyler Cravy (0-7) took the loss.
HOUSTON (AP) — Evan Gattis hit a three-run homer to put Houston ahead in the seventh inning, and the Astros snapped a five-game losing streak.
Houston leads the race for the second AL wild card by 1 1/2 games over the Los Angeles Angels, who swept a doubleheader at Minnesota. The Astros began the night 2 1/2 games behind first-place Texas in the AL West.
With the Astros trailing by a run in the seventh, Gattis hammered a pitch from reliever Fernando Rodriguez (4-2) to right field, giving Houston the lead for good and sending the crowd into a frenzy.
Mark Stassi added a solo shot and Jake Marisnick scored on a sacrifice fly in the eighth for Houston.
Chad Qualls (3-4) pitched a scoreless seventh for the win.
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Cole Hamels struck out 12 over seven innings, and Adrian Beltre had three hits and three RBIs to lead Texas.
The Rangers maintained their 2 1/2-game AL West lead over the Houston Astros, who also won.
Hamels (10-8) gave up seven hits, including a second-inning home run by Franklin Gutierrez to center field, and walked none. He improved his record to 4-1 since being traded by the Philadelphia Phillies before the non-waiver trade deadline.
Beltre hit a two-run double with the bases loaded in the fourth and singled in a run in the fifth. He got on base his first four times up and reached in 10 consecutive plate appearances.
Mariners starter Vidal Nuno (1-3) lasted 3 1-3 innings, allowing four earned runs on five hits and four walks.
DENVER (AP) — Tom Murphy had an RBI single and a home run — his first major league hits — and Colorado overcame the loss of starting pitcher Yohan Flande after he was struck in the left leg by a line drive.
Charlie Blackmon had three hits, including an RBI single, and scored three times, and Nolan Arenado singled twice to drive in two runs for the Rockies, who have won six of nine.
Jedd Gyorko homered and doubled and Justin Upton had an RBI single for San Diego.
Christian Bergman (3-0) pitched 3 1-3 innings of one-run relief after coming on in the third inning to replace Flande, who was hit in the left knee area by a line drive hit by Gyorko, who had a double.
Robbie Erlin (0-1), the first left-handed starter for the Padres this season, went three-plus innings and allowed seven runs and nine hits in his season debut.
TIGERS 6, ROYALS 5, 11 innings
DETROIT (AP) — Ian Kinsler homered in the 11th inning to give the win.
Kinsler led off the 11th against Miguel Almonte (0-1) and hit a 1-2 curveball into the Tigers' bullpen for his second walk-off homer against Kansas City this season. He also hit one on August 6.
Tom Gorzelanny (2-0) got the win with two innings of scoreless relief.
The celebration at home was Kinsler's second in three innings, but this one counted.
Kinsler was initially called safe at home on a sacrifice fly in the ninth inning, setting off a mob scene at the plate. However, a replay review showed Royals catcher Salvador Perez caught Jarrod Dyson's off-line throw and caught the tip of Kinsler's shoe with a diving tag to end the inning.
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Aramis Ramirez hit a tiebreaking double in the eighth inning, Andrew McCutchen doubled home two runs, and Pittsburgh ended a four-game skid.
The Pirates climbed within four games of NL Central-leading St. Louis following the Cardinals' 5-4 loss at Chicago. The Pirates remained a game ahead of the Cubs in the race for the first wild card, with both teams comfortably in playoff position.
Despite the Dodgers' sixth loss in 24 games, their magic number for clinching their third straight NL West title dropped to seven because San Francisco lost to Arizona.
Francisco Liriano (11-7) allowed two runs and five hits over seven innings, striking out nine.
The Dodgers' Clayton Kershaw (14-7) was charged with three runs and seven hits in seven-plus innings. He struck out eight, raising his major league-leading total to 272 with three starts left in the regular season.
