This Fall I have a new love. Greens. In fact, there are three. Mustard Greens, slightly spicy. Turnip Greens, a bit more bitter. And Kale, hearty and slightly herbal. All together, they make a standout side dish that comes together in minutes.
There's bacon, onions, garlic, mustard and warm balsamic vinegar. Enough savory flavor to make anything enticing.
Serve these greens to someone who "doesn't like greens" or, more horrifying, "doesn't like vegetables," and then call yourself a mighty Converter as they lap them up with a surprised smile.
Also, this would make a great Thanksgiving side dish!
Today, they made a satisfying lunch with some fresh bread and creamy Camembert. Bon Appétit!
Wilted Winter Greens
This recipe is to taste, but I'll give rough measures. It's best with a combination of at least two varieties of greens.
Serves 4 as a side dish
4 strips bacon, chopped
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1 small onion, sliced into thin strips
balsamic vinegar
Dijon mustard
8-10 cups roughly chopped mixed greens (raw)
Fry bacon in a large skillet until the fat is rendered out and the meat is almost fully cooked. Add the garlic and onion and sauté until onions are soft and translucent. Pour in 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar and 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard; mix with bacon, onions, and garlic. Add the fresh greens to the pan (they will wilt down significantly!), and pour in 2-3 tablespoons of water. Stir so the liquid coats the greens, then put a lid on them over medium heat and let them wilt for 2-3 minutes until they begin to lose their brightness. Remove the lid, stir the greens, and taste for seasoning. Add salt and pepper to taste, and add a bit more vinegar or mustard as you desire. Cook (wilt) them over medium heat until desired tenderness (fresher greens are more tender than older ones). Serve immediately.
See these greens as a brunch star here!

by John & Ruth Greene
The Apostle loved his brothers and sisters in Messiah, expressing his true heart with his friends in Philippi. (Philippians 3:20) They were his joy and crown, as much as earthly friends could be. He wanted to them to rejoice rather than to be bound by division, quarreling and useless self-importance. (Luke 10:17-20; Revelation 20:11-15; "How YHWH Marks His People"; "Giving to Others While Trusting in YHWH for Your Needs")
"Rejoice in Yahweh always: and again I say, Rejoice. Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Sovereign is at hand. Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto Elohim. And the peace of Elohim, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through the Messiah Yahshua." – Philippians 4:4-7, WoY
He longed for them to be of like mind in Yahshua [Jesus] Messiah instead of being strong willed in small-minded thinking and opinion that creates strife and destroys relationship. (Philippians 4:3; Matthew 6:33) They were to be active participants for the Kingdom of Elohim [YHWH] through the power of the Holy Spirit, what is often considered as citizenship. The Greek word for citizenship is "politeuma," which indicates active involvement and active intent through confidence in YHWH and His provisions. Sitting on the sidelines or straddling the fence is not an option for those that love the provisions of Heaven. Straddling the fence shows indecision and fear. Elohim's people have a work to do, a fight against dark spirit forces that rule mankind. (Matthew 28:18-20; Ephesians 6:12; 2 Corinthians 4:4, 10:3-4) What you see into today's professed body of Messiah is often rampant abuse and embarrassment. The authors of this article say that you know abuse when you experience it, a "church" that is based almost exclusively on appearances. Religious legalism can make you a castaway, but this isn't the mind of Messiah, nor is this thinking a part of the real body or gathering of the Messiah. Religion is this way because appearances are what professed Christians know in a world of flesh. Confidence in the provision of Yahshua [Jesus] the Messiah is much more than appearance, but a way of life and a mindset. ("Sin & the Law of Liberty"; "Ambassadors for Messiah? Trust in His Promises")
"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the Elohim of peace shall be with you." – Philippians 4:8-9, WoY
Disciples must be focused through good times and all manner of hardships. Through spiritual growth you become trained to run the race of life. Your heart stays focused on Messiah. You must not be distracted and sidetracked. Your reward is through YHWH's Kingdom, the result of your love and confidence. (1 Corinthians 9:24-27; Philippians 3:13-14) Think of this as training for life. All your energy and focus is required through the provision of Messiah's promises, the action of the Holy Spirit. (1 Timothy 4:7-10) Only through this spiritual exercise do you experience real sanctified growth and endurance. This brings you into line with Elohim's Will. The light of your witness will also attract others with an open heart to Messiah's truth. (2 Timothy 4:7-8; "Are You a Christian First or Last?"; "YHWH Sustains His People through Doubt")
In this way, you fight against evil forces, both within you through both conditioning and attacks, and in the world. Your fight is for a holy crown of righteousness, but this is not for your sake. When you have like-minded brothers and sisters with the same confidence all fight together as soldiers of righteousness, learning to be content even in the midst of spiritual battle. They stayed reconciled to one another as fellow workers. The Apostle and his friends were close and sensitive to the needs of one another. (Philippians 4:10-12, 14-17) They shared "a sweet-smelling fragrance, an acceptable offering, well-pleasing to Elohim." (Philippians 3:18) In this way, we have the "strength to do all, through Messiah." (Philippians 4:13) Through close relationship with heaven, the joy of disciples in love and harmony is made complete. This level of respect, joy and knowledge is what the world doesn't know or understand. How pleasant to be a prisoner of YHWH! ("The Beginnings of Faith and Salvation"; "Attitude and the Disciple of Messiah")
" I therefore, the prisoner of Yahweh, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, with all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; One Yahweh, one faith, one baptism, One Elohim and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all." – Ephesians 4:1-6, WoY
"But my Elohim shall supply all your need according to His riches in dignity by the Messiah Yahshua." – Philippians 4:19-20, WoY
Disciples of Messiah have been given spiritual gifts, provision through the strength of Yahshua [Jesus], exercises in living for the purpose of fighting against Satan and his kingdom. (Ephesians 9-10) YHWH [your Heavenly Father] has equipped His people as fellow workers for a common purpose though a peace that only He can give. (Ephesians 4:7-8; John 14:27)
"And He Himself gave some as emissaries, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as shepherds and teachers for the perfecting of the set-apart ones, to the work of service to a building up of the body of the Messiah, until we all come to the unity of the belief and of the knowledge of the Son of Elohim, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the completeness of Messiah, so that we should no longer be children, tossed and borne about by every wind of teaching, by the trickery of men, in cleverness, unto the craftiness of leading astray, but, maintaining the truth in love, we grow up in all respects into Him who is the head, Messiah, from whom the entire body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the working by which each part does its share, causes growth of the body for the building up of itself in love." – Ephesians 4:11-16, ISR98
In these verses of scripture, our apostle has embodied the whole of spiritual maturity through Yahshua [Jesus] Messiah and the power of the Holy Spirit. Let's conclude with these thoughts about being a new man in Messiah.
"So this I say, and witness in the Master, that you should no longer walk as the gentiles [the world] walk, in the futility of their mind, having been darkened in their understanding, having been estranged from the life of Elohim, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardness of their heart, who, having become callous, have given themselves up to indecency, to work all uncleanness with greediness. But you have not so learned Messiah, if indeed you have heard Him and were taught by Him, as truth is in Yahshua: that you put off – with regard to your former way of life – the old man, being corrupted according to the desires of the deceit, and to be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and that you put on the renewed man1 which was created according to Elohim, in righteousness and set-apartness of the truth." – Ephesians 4:17-24, ISR98
By putting on the new man in Messiah, you prove your confidence and trust in the provisions of Elohim and the power of the Holy Spirit. Only through the power of the Holy Spirit can you expect to grow in YHWH's truth, living in confidence of His Word, Yahshua [Jesus]. (John 1:1, 14; Ephesians 4:30; Galatians 5:22-23; Romans 14:17) Through the Holy Spirit all disciples of Messiah are made complete. ("Listening to the Holy Spirit"; "Abiding in Trust"; "Are You Rejecting YHWH's Holy Spirit?"; "Christianity: A Crisis in Prayer & Spirit")

With the money they "earned" from textbook sales they go out and do something fun, to celebrate the end of the school year. Like eat ringpops.
However, sometimes they don't, or the bookstore doesn't want the books - and those books start piling up. We have 2 or 3 copies of Theater: The Lively Art, one of them with CD-ROM, which has never been opened. Don't even ask me how many miserable local and university plays I have seen, as the companion play-goer with my reluctant student - and I have seen one really good play. Also, don't ask me how many more I might see.

Also, don't ask me how many more I might see.
Before we continue, the grass really was that weird green color that day. PPP and the Young Son do a little more bartering and trading of books, since in August, I usually say "I don't have $1000 dollars for books! if you want anything else, like lunch or football cleats, go find yourself some books!" That works with them. Why, I don't know, but it does. Nonetheless, we have ended up with a bunch of books.
Plus the homeschool books - a whole different category and a whole different story, to be told another day. Leave it at : WE HAVE SOME HOMESCHOOL BOOKS - INCLUDING SAXON MATH!!!!!!
About three years ago, I realized I could be an Amazon seller. (I'm not linking to Amazon, figure it out). It's easy! Just ask them!!! So...three weeks ago, I decided to become an indentured servant to Amazon - no, I meant to say that I listed some books to sell at Amazon. NOT because I thought I would make a lot of money, because I didn't and won't. I'm looking for the $150 book for $20, so isn't everyone else? So, I did this to get them out of my house, in preparation for painting inside (don't tell BigD - he doesn't know what I have planned for the holiday weekend) - and because it seems like the noble thing to do. I will support the education of students and families struggling with the overwhelming cost of education, and I will somehow "save a tree" - because that is one less new book that will have to be printed. Somehow that has to work. Composting works on the yard waste; recycling works with the cans; and this bookselling thing should fulfill the same role with the books - noble sacrifice.
So, I listed the books. It took me 3 different attempts to get started. There is a good chance I did NOT read the agreeements in their entirety. I just kept on clicking 'sell yours here!" It's possible I was also watching the Top Chef Finale for the 19th time! I am a sucker for those exclamation marks !(or as Mrs. Brashear! my beloved 5th grade teacher! called them: exclamation POINTS)!
It took a total of about 13 hours to get them listed - not that I have so so many books, it's just TEDIOUS, what with figuring out the condition, and finding the right ISBN, and finding the right edition, and all the other minutiae they want. And every single 'how-to' says not to sell popular fiction of the thriller/mystery/romance kind, which I happen to have another million of...so, OK, bleh.
I set up a different email account (don't ask - something about my full name published on Amazon that doesn't seem right.) That was all done and complete last week. And then I forgot the password. So I had to reset it. And I forgot it again, and reset it again. And again. Today, I realized that I hadn't seen that email 'Zambooks' (witty, no?) for a few days - and so, I reset the email password yet again - and I have sold 3 books. Bam! fireworks! nobility rules! Break forth the confetti and streamers! I was totally THRILLED . . .until I realized that I now have AGREED to ship those books. And a BIG reminder from Amazon "YOU HAVE AGREED to ship these books within 2 business days ...." I am going to make it, pretty close to that. Pretty damn close, considering I forgot the password so many times. Anyway, that AGREEMENT is on every single page I looked at, and it made me have the eerie feeling that Amazon was watching me closely from above to make sure I abide by the many, many terms I agreed to, simply by clicking the button.
I had to go to some kind of store and buy something to send them in. I had to come home and print off the shipping invoice and mailing address and blah, blah, blah - so, per book, 3 pages of printed stuff. And then I couldn't find the mailing tape, so I just piled on the regular scotch tape (yes, I considered duct tape, or duck tape, your choice ) Then I had to make sure that I was mailing the right book to the right person. Since Biology Study guide should not go to the person who wants College Algebra, hardback edition.
Amazon has all these instructions about checking and verifying numbers. I had a better system. In my notebook, I have written the title and author and a little hint about what the book looks like:
- Modern Biology "green with ugly owl"
- A Bordo - "hideous purple cover."
- Global Insights- "red and raggedy"
Unfortunately, Amazon did not bother to include my description in all their paperwork. They sent a SKU number. I am not a part of the SKU universe.
So, that whole ordeal of figuring out what was sold, finding the book, getting the packing stuff, packing them up, etc - that took about an hour and a half. Seriously. It's confusing. And counting the driving to buy the envelopes and looking for the tape. And unjamming the printer. And it's hot.
Next, drive to the post office. In the heat, which I detailed above. NO, I did not drive to the Post Office with the packages on top of the car, though I did get down to the corner once with my purse on top of the car. I am using USPS here - I don't care if they do call it snail mail. Strap the book on a snail, for the $3.99 Amazon has collected for shipping. So, when the lady offered me a rate of $25.13 to have it there tomorrow - uh, no, the Amazon warning wasn't that dire. We settled on 'media mail' which is evidently the cheapest. All three books - about 12 cents to spare on the shipping. Then I came home and looked more carefully at all that paperwork, now that the books were shipped and I wasn't getting ready to get kicked out of the exclusive Amazon booksellers club. One book, a college algebra book, sold for $4.50. Amazon's 'comission' was $3.04. The envelope + shipping was $4.54. Amazon collected $3.99 for shipping. So far, I am a little bit in the hole. In total, my net for the day is $2.56. Which maybe paid for the gas.
Three books were sold, I did all the work, actually found the books inside my house, I drove in the heat and sun, and Amazon made a bunch more than $2.56 on MY books.
Therefore, I rest my case. I am an indentured servant. To Amazon. DOT. COM.
In the spirit of more nobility, I am listing all the books I have listed on Amazon here. If you want one, you can email me at email@example.com.
I wrote the password down, so we're good on that. Or if you know me, call me. Or if you live here, just come and get it.
Right this minute, the prices for the texts are not there, because I have to go back and see what the prices actually ARE, on Amazon. We can have a civil discussion about how you can pay for them and I will send them to you, with no threats about being in trouble. And then Amazon won't get all the money, you'll get a good book for little $$, and I will get them out of here - even though I will still have to drive in the hot sun. That's OK, it's all for the cause...of whatever noble cause I thought it was.
My 'agreement' says I cannot list them elsewhere at a lower price. It took me a solid 30 minutes to find that clause. For all of you who may be very successful Amazon sellers, go for it. Sit around and say things like "What kind of idiot is this woman?" Go ahead, I can't hear you. Frankly, I am kind of asking the same question. But it's a more noble quest than money - it's about saving education and trees. I think. But I didn't really want to pay Amazon to do that.
I am setting myself free from servitude to Amazon. Which I could also accomplish by un-listing all those books. Which would take a lot of time clicking. No - this is better

Arsenal appear unlikely to wrap up a deal for long term reported target Caglar Soyuncu in what remains of the summer transfer window, after the Turkish defender's current club Freiburg claimed there has never been any approach from the Gunners.
After speculation over Arsenal interest first in Soyuncu first emerged last season, the rumours went into overdrive when Mehmet Ozkan, president of the player's previous club in Turkey, claimed the Premier League club had asked for information on him.
"Caglar Soyuncu is set to join Arsenal. Of course we would make a cut from the transfer if he joins Arsenal," he said at the time. "Arsenal asked us for data on his time at the club, we have put something together for them which will be handed over."
The Gunners were said to be still be interested in landing the 22-year-old despite also signing the more experienced Sokratis Papastathopoulos from Borussia Dortmund.
It even prompted Soyuncu to say: "It is true that there is an offer from Arsenal. I hope I will go there. I really want to play in the Premier League, but it all depends on my club."
His agent, Mustafa Dogru, additionally commented, "There are concrete talks, all that remains is for a fee to be agreed. We will see what happens next."
But assuming there is truth to their claims about Arsenal making contact and holding talks over personal terms, it would appear that the Gunners stopped short of taking their supposed interest to the next level by not actually establishing formal contact with Freiburg.
Freiburg sporting director Klemens Hartenbach has now alleged that the Bundesliga club has never received an offer and therefore Soyuncu won't be leaving this summer.
"Arsenal has never approached us. We assume that Soyuncu plays with us next year," Hartenbach has told German publication Bild.
If Arsenal do still want to sign Soyuncu, they have less than two weeks before the deadline.

Dewatering and Water Treatment
One of the most critical elements of a successful soil remediation project is the ability to manage groundwater, surface water and process liquids encountered during excavation. ENTACT possesses the technical expertise in excavation dewatering, on-site water treatment, and procurement of applicable discharge permits. We are capable of implementing a variety of dewatering technologies as dictated by project conditions including design and installation of fixed well point systems and portable dewatering systems using pumps and vacuum trucks. Where long term or large scale dewatering is required, more sophisticated technologies may be implemented including deep drains and extraction systems, biopolymer trenching techniques for groundwater diversions, vertical slurry wall cut-off barriers, cut-off walls, and deep soil mixing vertical barriers. Our vast water treatment experience includes assembly and maintenance of water treatment trains to handle a variety of contaminants including organics (suspended solids reduction, carbon adsorption, particulate removal), inorganics (metals precipitation, filtration/removal of sediments), and NAPL (oil/water separation, free-product removal, adsorption, sand filtration, air stripping).
Ash Management & Wet Ash Conditioning
In-situ and ex-situ solidification/stabilization efforts are enhanced by our understanding of crusted ash volume, liquid ash volume, and moisture content, with optimal mix designs completed at our in-house treatability laboratory. As a national service provider of remedial and geotechnical construction services, we are familiar with state and federal regulations related to ash management units and geographically positioned to offer efficient mobilization. With wet ash conditioning, ash is mixed with wastewater such as highly saline effluents generated from water treatment processes to produce a slurry with controlled density that is then hydraulically transported to the ash dams. The slurry is allowed to settle and the ash-water is either drained away, or percolates through the ash dam and is collected in a toe drain.
Landfill Construction
ENTACT has industry-leading expertise in landfill construction as well as remediation and closures. Our skill set includes clearing and grubbing, erosion controls, excavation, clay lining, geosynthetic liner installation, drainage layer, geotechnical expertise, gas and leachate collection systems, storm water drainage, protective cover, revegetation, seeding, and all associated roadwork and infrastructure.

Ejecting stuck media in MacOSX
Posted on June 4th, 2008 by darkmoon
Only had this once, and it was definitely a weird case… but sometimes your disc gets stuck in your Superdrive. It's gone from the mount, but the disc is still in there. And you're sitting there thinking… what am I going to do now?
Here's an easy way to get the disc out. Reboot your MacOSX system and hold down the mouse button. The disc should pop out. Just keep that finger on the mouse button until it does.
Pretty neat eh? There's a whole bunch of other ways to eject media. Obviously this is only for emergencies or if you just can't get that CD out by regular means. But good thing there are other ways.

MoviePass has less than 3 months left before it runs out of cash — and its latest changes won't save it (HMNY)
Hollis Johnson/Business Insider
- MoviePass' parent company, Helios and Matheson Analytics, has less than three months of cash left at the rate it was burning through its funds in the second quarter.
- Even reducing its burn rate by the amount executives have predicted wouldn't do much to stem the flow.
- When it's run low on funds in the past, Helios and Matheson has repeatedly issued and sold new shares to raise cash.
- But that tactic may be coming to an end; it already increased its share count by more than 9,000% in the past two weeks, and its stock price is inching closer and closer to $0.
Enjoy your MoviePass subscription while you've got it. You may not be able to use it three months from now.
Helios and Matheson Analytics, the parent company of MoviePass, has less than three months' worth of cash left, the company revealed Tuesday in its quarterly report.
And that may be overstating things. It could run out of cash much sooner than that if it has overstated the degree to which new restrictions on the service — including a new three-movies-a-month limitation — will reduce the rate at which it burns through cash.
The company cautioned investors in the report that its cash was running low, and it reissued a "going concern" warning. The company did not immediately respond to a request for further comment.
"Without additional funding, the company will not have sufficient funds to meet its obligations within one year" from Tuesday, the company said in its quarterly report. "These factors raise substantial doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern."
As of Friday, Helios and Matheson had just $26 million in cash on hand. It had another $25.4 million on deposit at its merchant bank, which processes payments on its behalf.
By contrast, the company burned through more than $219 million in the first six months of the year — $150.8 million of that in the second quarter. The company burned cash in the second quarter at a rate of about $50.3 million a month — an amount nearly equal to all of the company's cash and accounts receivable on Friday.
MoviePass has been making changes to save cash
But Helios and Matheson has been making changes to its MoviePass service, which is its only significant business, to conserve cash. Most notably, it plans to limit the number of movies subscribers can see at no extra price to just three a month — down from one a day. MoviePass CEO Mitch Lowe told The Wall Street Journal he expected the changes, which take effect Wednesday, to reduce the company's rate of cash burn by 60%.
Assuming that figure is accurate, it would mean Helios and Matheson would burn cash at about $20.1 million a month — or nearly 40% of the cash it had on hand as of Friday. Even at that rate, the company would be out of funds by November.
And that's assuming things don't get dramatically worse, which again may be a big assumption. One of the things Lowe has repeatedly crowed about is the sharp rise in the number of MoviePass subscribers — and the value of the data the company is collecting from them.
But the recent changes to the company's service seem to be taking a toll on its users. As of Saturday, the company had 3.2 million subscribers, which was up by just 200,000 in the six weeks since the end of June. From December to the end of June, MoviePass added 2 million subscribers, or about 333,333 a month.
Helios and Matheson has repeatedly sold shares to raise cash
When the company has run low on cash in the past, it has issued new shares to raise funds. And in the report it raised the prospect of doing that again, noting that it had already filed a regulatory document indicating its intent to sell as much as $1.2 billion worth of new shares.
MoviePass/ReutersIn fact, the company has already been issuing lots of new shares to generate cash. Between June 30 and last Friday, the company issued and sold 232.4 million new shares on the market, raising some $50.2 million.
But the company's ability to keep repeating that tactic seems dubious. It's already in danger of being delisted from the Nasdaq stock market for having a share price of less than $1, a move that would severely limit its ability to sell new shares.
Last month, Helios and Matheson attempted to boost its stock price above that threshold by reverse splitting its stock, giving investors one of its new shares in exchange for 250 of its old ones. The move worked only temporarily; within a week, the company's stock was again trading at less than $1 a share. On Tuesday, it closed regular trading at $0.05 a share, and it sank under $0.04 a share in after-hours trading.
It looks set to fall even farther after the company revealed in the report just how much it has diluted shareholders in just the last several weeks.
Helios' share count has increased by 9,423% in two weeks
After its reverse stock split, Helios and Matheson had just 1.7 million outstanding. By July 31, it had 6.7 million shares in circulation. However, by Monday it had 636.9 outstanding shares. That's an astounding 9,423% increase to its number of shares in less than two weeks.
In after-hours trading Tuesday, shareholders seemed to already be starting to take the new, previously unreported dilution into account. In recent exchanges, Helios and Matheson's stock was down more than a penny, or about 29%, to 4 cents a share.
The farther the company's stock falls the more shares it will have to sell to raise additional funds. And the more shares it sells, the less each share will likely fetch on the open market.
For the quarter, Helios and Matheson reported a loss of $63.3 million on sales of $74.2 million. In the same period a year earlier — which was before it took control of MoviePass — the company lost $5.2 million on $1.1 million in sales.
The company's cash burn was almost double its stated loss in part because it recognized big paper gains due to the reduction in some of its liabilities.
All of which is to say that something could change soon — the company could get a strategic investment from another, larger company, or it could get acquired wholesale. But with things being as they are, MoviePass subscribers should, perhaps, buckle up for the worst-case scenario before the end of the year.
CORRECTION (8/14 7:39 PM PT): An earlier version of this story misstated the rate at which MoviePass is burning cash. The company spent $219 million in the first six months of the year, not the previous quarter, as originally reported. As such, the story has been updated to reflect that MoviePass has less than three months worth of cash, not two months.

Sometimes things can get a little fuzzy after an evening at the pub. Here's a friendly reminder of what you may have missed while you were drinking.
The Padres (31-46) scored fewer runs than the Atlanta Braves (37-39), 3-0, last night in the first of three games at Petco Park.
Jhoulys Chacin (6-7, 4.76) allowed two runs on seven hits and a walk while striking out four in seven innings. Johan Camargo doubled in the fourth inning to drive in Matt Adams and Tyler Flowers. Camargo was thrown out trying to take third base. Ender Inciarte scored on Nick Markakis' sacrifice fly in the eighth inning.
Sean Newcomb (1-2, 1.48) shutout the Padres over six innings, allowing six hits and a walk while striking out eight. In total, the Padres struck out fourteen times, seven of which were on called strikes.
Tonight Luis Perdomo (2-4, 4.56) gets the start against Bartolo Colon (2-7, 7.78) starting at 7:10pm PDT.

While underwhelming respondents, overtaxing travel and over-consumption of M&Ms might be the most frequent complaints about Focus Groups, the issues run much deeper. Innovation demands fresh thinking – yet for decades consumer research has maintained a fairly stagnant approach for cultivating key insights and evaluating opportunities. The problem is that, by definition, focus groups explore consumer's current perceptions and attitudes – and with innovation if you aim for today you'll hit yesterday.
The voice of the consumer is critical to the innovation process – but how do you avoid having your insights rendered obsolete before you can even leverage them? We've identified 4 key ways in which a more "future focused" approach can help in avoiding some of the most common pitfalls associated with consumer insights work.
These ideas may not keep you from eating too many M&Ms, but hopefully it will help you to better position your brand, product or organization within an increasingly complex, changing and competitive marketplace.

Major League Soccer has a lot of problems.
Understatement is fun, huh. But I'm not going to go on about its byzantine rules that are somehow at once protean and inflexible. I'm not addressing its rabid and vicious insecurity that causes the entity and its supporter base to feel the impulse to bully every other soccer supporter. I won't be discussing how it's legal structure is a monopoloid throwback to the age of robber barons. Nor will I be discussing how the league parades propagandists as analysts to create a form of punditry that is repugnant even to sophists.
No, rather, I am going to be talking about a player memoir. It is the story of the MLS player who has so far made the deepest and most significant cultural impact: Robbie Rogers.
Coming Out to Play, Robbie Rogers & Eric Marcus, Penguin, 2014
Player memoirs are always dreadful. It's not the fault of the individual, however. The cult of personality that is built up around every celebrity creates unrealistic expectations in the cultists. A memoir often deflates the image that a fan has built up in the mind just as frequently as it confirms the suspicions of those who for whatever reason decided to detest the celebrity in question. The sporting world is no special enclave in pop culture, it is governed by the same whims and fancies as all other glitter and trash.
So when I say that Robbie Rogers has had the deepest and most significant culture impact of anyone in Major League Soccer, I mean it, but let's keep things into perspective. In the pop culture universe, sports is an estate within which soccer is a tribe and our nation's soccer a queer province.
You don't grow up hating yourself by accident. You don't learn to lie about your true nature on a whim. You don't pretend to be straight just for the fun of it. You have to learn and be taught these things and I was a good student.
Coming out stories become cliche mostly due to cis-heterosexual lecherous ogling of all things outside its white shell. Normalcy covets novelty. Rogers immediately unsettles reader expectations while still fulfilling them by suggesting that the novel often just wants to be anything but that. He makes a parallel between his passions: to be a fully realized professional athlete and fully realized passionate person.
Nothing about the style of prose is difficult. In fact, Rogers is assuredly inoffensive to the point of seeming like a rather cute but dull lad. There aren't really any clever bits though there are adorable vignettes (Robbie playing dress up with his sisters is one that is quite endearing). It makes it clear that nearly all of us read this book because of Rogers coming-out and that makes us voyeurs, fetishists.
There is nothing salacious or gossipy in this story. There is nothing heart-wrenching or tear-jerking. Coming Out to Play isn't a melodrama. Here is Rogers matter-of-factly recounting the moment when he realized that he had had enough of hiding his sexuality, of pretending, and of enduring casual bigotry.
Yet I never get the impression that Rogers is or wants to lecture or sermonize. When he names names he doesn't do so to insult or hurt individuals, rather the recounting revokes the pass given to acts and statements that, rightfully, should have consequences.
Bigotry should be shamed, no matter its so-called excuses. At the same time, Rogers repeatedly makes it clear that casual bigotry is virtually invisible to the bigot. Often Rogers shows us players who aren't ardent bigots but rather unconsciously bought into the bias of cis-hetero culture. He makes it a point to show how easily the veil can be lifted and how usually those individuals can see the error of their ways.
But Rogers isn't just writing a coming-out story, he's writing a soccer story. Stepping away from the game may have been instigated by the homophobic machismo of sport, but the game was in Rogers' blood. You don't spend your whole life working harder than most to become a specialized athlete to just stop in your prime. When news broke of Rogers retiring, many in the US soccer world were distraught. Mix into the this the 'big reveal' of Rogers sexuality, and most supporters felt a tinge of guilt. We had somehow in whatever infinitesimal degree driven from the sport we love one of its bright lights. And we knew that now the US Men's National Team just got that much worse on the left.
So, Rogers return to the professional ranks was a boon. Yet his return to MLS engendered more melodrama than, arguably, his coming-out. In the same plainspoken fashion that he addressed the casual bigotry he faced, Rogers gives us a rare snapshot into the needless convoluted process of signing with Major League Soccer.
Money might not have been a motivation for Rogers, but money is the only motivation for MLS. A bizarre isolationism infects the organization, one that has lead it to not have teams in the real sense but rather brands that it owns and manages. Within the brands of MLS (i.e., Columbus Crew, Los Angeles Galaxy, or Chicago Fire), there is a desire for strict control over the features of those brands (i.e., players like Robbie Rogers).
There's always a hitch, and these hitches are never clear to the lowly individual player. The machinations to bring Robbie Rogers back into Major League Soccer to play for the team he wanted to, LA Galaxy, had to involve a trade. Forward Mike Magee stepped up and volunteered. Magee wanted to move back home, Chicago, and Rogers wanted to play for his home team in Los Angeles. It was a nearly perfect story.
Ignoring the machinations of league policy, the trade would become briefly infamous. Magee's arrival in Chicago saw him step out of the shadows of Landon Donovan, Robbie Keane, and David Beckham in which he had labored unremarkable but certainly adequate. As the star on a middling-to-poor team, Magee went on a tear playing the second most minutes of his career and scoring more goals than he had ever done. Mike Magee became league MVP.
Meanwhile, Rogers was relegated to training and conditioning as he was still overcoming injury. He played sparingly and was underwhelming in those appearances. Fans grumbled and talking heads made outlandishly stupid claims implying that Rogers arrival was a publicity stunt and one of the worst trades in history. These were the tactics used to mute Rogers story, not Rogers himself, and the genuinely valuable cultural import it had.
Rogers is the first openly gay professional athlete in a major sport in our country. Our nation's sports are at once fiercely prudish and hyper-sexualized. So Rogers, simply being who he is in the open, is a direct challenge to that sporting culture and the larger popular culture. And pop culture took notice. Unfortunately, to borrow a metaphor from the other football, Major League Soccer, its brands, its fans, and its pundits drop the ball on this one. They all recoiled from Rogers story and while it gained momentum outside of the soccer world, within it withered on the vine.
But that's a wrongheaded statement. I'm wrong to say the fans recoiled. Supporters can seem fickle but in their heart-of-hearts they want to love. Rogers's story gives us all something to love. It shows us just how a person can be authentic, the difficulties and the successes of it.
We've had a two seasons now to come to terms with our gay friend. We've done alright, not great, but alright just the same. Robbie Rogers didn't win the MVP award, instead he played in the championship game and won the league trophy. Talking heads have moved on to their next silly statement, while Robbie Rogers has earned the admiration of the leader of the free world.
Rogers is a professional. He is not alone. We are his supporters.

Veto Keeps Electoral Scales Level in KS
The Supreme Court's recent Crawford decision on Indiana's photo ID law was a statement on evidence (albeit mixed in its devotion to facts), and not a call to arms. And so far, few states have gotten riled up....
Political operatives in two states, though, decided that this was an opportune moment to try to tilt the electoral scales for 2008, and pressed legislation creating—not solving—problems for their own citizens.
We've written before on Missouri's firestorm over a proposed constitutional amendment on restrictive photo ID and citizenship rules. At the end of the legislative session, and with the potential to swing the 2008 election on the line (given the history of photo-finish statewide races in Missouri), the amendment died on the vine last Friday after lawmakers ajourned for the year without bringing it to a vote. And then there's the neighbor to the west, which was trying mightily to keep up with the Joneses.
The Kansas legislature recently passed legislation requiring voters to show citizenship papers when registering and photo ID when voting in person at the polls. This is the harshest such law in the country, beyond any other state. And though there's no indication that there's a pressing problem this solves, there are already reports from other states with less restrictive rules that real people are showing up and having to cast ballots that won't count. Most people, yes, have specific types of documentation. But some just don't—and without the right papers, it's actually not a small thing to get the right papers. Sometimes, you're stuck in an endless loop: needing to show a birth certificate to get a photo ID, and needing to show photo ID to get a birth certificate. At times, the bureaucracy can be majestic in its capacity to frustrate.
Private businesses, of course, know that some potential customers don't have a particular specific piece of paper, so they adapt their practices in reasonable ways to include people who don't have the document in question. So, I might add, do the election laws of 48 states, which all allow voters to prove their identity in sensible ways without a particular type of magic card. Not so with the new Kansas bill.
All of this—the bill without any justification, with the proven capacity for harm to Kansans, and the potential to skew the 2008 elections—landed on the desk of Governor Kathleen Sebelius. And today, Governor Sebelius vetoed the bill, helping to ensure that Kansas, like most of the rest of the country, accommodates the citizens without as much as the citizens with. There's no better way to ensure the integrity of our elections than that.

Our son has had very little exposure to other languages in the home environment, yet he now insists we count in french, corrects our grammar when we attempt to speak french, and without a doubt has a far broader grasp of the language than we could have hoped for!
I have recommended it to friends, and will continue to do so – Dylan adores coming to this class and never wants to miss it. He seems genuinely stimulated and interested, and he has really flourished under his teachers care.
Monsieur Arnaud is so positive and patient with our active little boy. We couldn't ask for more and even though Dylan starts school this year, we will endeavour to continue classes at Lingo Bros. as it's just such a highlight for Dylans week.
Lysa Ryan
(Dylan, 2.9 years old)
The exuberant joy the boys have now for french.
I am very careful to call it French Club (not school). it has given them both CONFIDENCE and therefore PLEASURE. "Mummy i am no good at French." is no longer uttered in our house. Instead the boys colour in their club sheets and scream "Je mange le Pantalon!" Silly, but i don't mind because they are engaged and saying phrases without being self-conscious.
I already do recommend Lingo Bros. The boys race to the classroom. we get there earlier and earlier now as they are so keen to start. They are engaged. They have fun, have gained confidence and I appreciate enthusiasm they come away with.
With the majority of the teachers they have being women, i like the fact that french club gives them a taste of a male teacher. The gentleman are incredibly patient with the boys and I suspect it is their core enthusiasm which is so contagious!
Emma Wilson
(Hudson, 4yrs & Parker, 5yrs)
The approach and enthusiasm the teachers have are outstanding, as well as their innovative way of thinking to keep the children interested at all times.
My daughter is more outspoken and confident to start to interact in French with me. So I would definitely recommend the class to other parents.
They are interactive, enthusiastic, and always interested in catering to each child individually to make them progress. They send constant updates on my daughter's progress whether it be positive or be it constructive criticism to make sure that my daughter is continuously stimulated.
Joss lliffe
(Ella, 6 yrs old)
Michael and Arnaud have a unique approach to learning French, and their lessons are instructive, engaging, and, most importantly for this age, FUN!
Barron and Snowdon are both much more confident and more fluent in French and this has also been noticed by their French teachers at school.
Michael and Arnaud have developed a brilliant method of teaching French to young children, and I would HIGHLY recommend their classes to anyone looking to improve their children's French abilities.
Barron and Snowdon look forward to their lessons which is a dream for a parent.
Whitney Bromberg
(Barron, 8 years old & Snowdon, 6 years old)

If you stay stressed for a long time, chances are that you might slip into depression! People often overlook the seriousness of frequent anxiety attacks or persisting stress which can conflict with their overall health in the long run.

Why Twitter is so perfect for PRPosted: March 15, 2010 Filed under: Twitter | Tags: PR, Twitter 1 Comment
Two years ago PR people were just discovering Twitter. Now most PR people can't imagine life without it. What makes Twitter so ideal for PR? Here are some reasons:
- You can build your own community around a brand and create a frequency of contact that is hard for other social platforms to compete with.
- Twitter is the ultimate 'elevator pitch' platform
- Brands can use Twitter to express personality AND messages
- Twitter enables you to respond to events and news real time in a way that some other platforms can't
- Twitter is (for now) cool
- You can measure your brand's performance on Twitter for nothing
- Twitter is making Google search way better by making it real time – that means real time news
- Twitter doesn't make the same demands on a brand that blogging does (legal doesn't need to review tweets (yet)
- If it can be said in 140 characters you can say it – free speech with a character limit
- Twitter enables you to hear real time the conversations that surround your brand, your competitors and or the issues you care about
- Mavens are on Twitter
- Analysts are on Twitter
- Editors are on Twitter
- My mother isn't.
One Comment on "Why Twitter is so perfect for PR"
[…] Why Twitter is so perfect for PR by timdyson.wordpress.com May 31, 2010- I love your list! You are right- isn't it odd how that just a short time ago, Twitter didn't exist? Now, it is the next big thing (like you said, for now!). Twitter gives the opportunity to say what you want for anyone and everyone to see in real time- and timeliness is a key element in PR. Thanks for the list, you made some great points here, and hopefully it will help me with my "Week of Twitter" project coming up in my PR writing class! Thanks! […]

WikiLeaks may be spilling into your online holiday shopping and bill paying plans with cyber activists hitting MasterCard, VISA, and PayPal.
Yesterday, today and for who knows how long you may find that your plans to do online banking, shopping and bill paying may come to a screeching halt as "cyber activist" hack into and attack many popular websites and services like Mastercard.com, VISA, PayPal and Amazon. Why are these cyber activists mounting a hacker war against these major retailers and bankers? In retaliation for these services no longer being made available to the organization WikiLeaks; and its organizer/founder Julian Assange.
WikiLeaks, is an ant secrecy organization that collects information and then releases it to the public (where and how they get this information is part of an ongoing investigation). Their founder and organizer was arrested in Great Britain this week after releasing 250,000 State Department documents in which US diplomats were, quite frankly less than complimentary towards their counterparts throughout the world. WikiLeaks's Web site also was responsible for posting of hundreds of thousands of secret Pentagon documents on the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Once released, many other news organizations started picking up the story and began publishing articles based on the archived documents WikiLeaks released to them.
But, that's not all Julian Assange is accused of. British judges recently denied Sweden's request for extradition of Assange, who is accused of sexual molestation and rape of two women. The women claim that sex was consensual, however it became nonconsensual when condoms were not in use.
He however, maintains his innocence. His supporters call the charges a "smear campaign."
Operation Payback
A group of activists recently took credit for the cyber attack Continue reading WikiLeaks may be spilling into your online holiday shopping and bill paying plans
