MySQL includes character set support that enables you to store data using a variety of character sets and perform comparisons according to a variety of collations. You can specify character sets at the server, database, table, and column level.
This chapter discusses the following topics:
What are character sets and collations?
The multiple-level default system for character set assignment.
Syntax for specifying character sets and collations.
Affected functions and operations.
Unicode support.
The character sets and collations that are available, with notes.
Selecting the language for error messages.
Selecting the locale for day and month names.
Character set issues affect not only data storage, but also
communication between client programs and the MySQL server. If you
want the client program to communicate with the server using a
character set different from the default, you'll need to indicate
which one. For example, to use the
utf8 Unicode
character set, issue this statement after connecting to the server:
SET NAMES 'utf8';
For more information about configuring character sets for application use and character set-related issues in client/server communication, see Section 1.5, "Configuring Application Character Set and Collation", and Section 1.4, "Connection Character Sets and Collations".

Known as Fusion Man, he's the Swiss Eval Knieval of the air, and yesterday he plunged to earth 7500 feet from an airplane at over 180 miles an hour, buoyed only by four jets strapped to his back. But in reality, he's just a pilot named Yves Rossi who built the jet wings himself — to the tune of about $258,000 dollars. (He had a little help from sponsors.) Want to see it in full video action?
Here's a video of the flight, with dreamy background music provided by our sister site Gizmodo. I would have done something a little more death metal, but actually the pop works OK too. Says The Register about the commercial potential of this jetpack:
Rossy's backpack jetwings won't be hitting the shops soon, though. The only controls or instruments are a throttle and an audible altimeter - the wing is steered using the body, and given his long history of crackups this plainly isn't easy even for Rossy. A flameproof suit is necessary to avoid leg burns from the jet exhaust, too. The only way of launching is to jump from a (great) height. Landing is by folding the wings and parachuting down - yet more skills to be mastered. (The latest wing has its own landing chute which deploys if it has to be jettisoned, which should ease the future development path somewhat).
The main application would seem to be stunts like yesterday's - or perhaps for certain highly unusual/barmy special-forces missions. Spelco, a military parachute company in Germany, is working on its "Gryphon" backpack deltaplane - an easier to operate, low-radar-signature, long-ranging version of Rossy's concept.
Next, Rossy claims, he'll zoom 22 miles across the English Channel. Top image by Stephanie Thomet, via The Register.

Bedraggled but back together
As you saw yesterday, Avril Lavigne attended the UK premiere of Tim Burton's Alice In Wonderland. Next to the glamour of Anne Hathaway, Avril was more Helena Bonham Carter than glamourous starlet, only Helena does it with a sense of humour and a f-cking awesome cool that makes whatever she wears totally irrelevant.
Fashion critique aside however, there was an interesting development in the Avril narrative – she was accompanied by Deryck Whibley. They are supposed to be getting a divorce, haggling over some money. Estranged no more?
Deryck apparently worked on a few of the new tracks on her upcoming album. Needless to say they've managed to get through some of the awkwardness. Full blown reconciliation? Or temporary comfort before a permanent split?
I've seen this happen with almost every divorced couple I know. A brief spell of togetherness before those unresolved issues ultimately tear them apart for good. Calling it a total regrouping would be premature. Having said that, there's always hope...if in fact you care.
Speaking of hope: my parents were divorced for 10 years between my ages of 6 to 16 before getting back together just as I was exiting high school. It happens. But very, very rarely.

ISF announces 50 World Ranking races
- Details
- Published on Wednesday, 24 April 2013 16:15
The ISF announces the 2013 World Ranking with 50 races selected from 14 countries and four continents which, at the end of the season, will establish the world's 100 élite athletes in the three disciplines: Sky, Ultra and Vertical.
The élite ranking is based on a consolidated formula also used in other sports but for the first time, adapted to mountain courses. The formula also comprises an exclusive ISF algorithm which takes into consideration factors such as the number of élite athletes participating and the winners' advantage over the other top finishers.
The three best results in each category are counted with a correction factor for races with at least five élite athletes from the current year's ranking present. The fifty 2013 ranked races are based on: 20 Sky, 20 Ultra and10 Vertical races that fit into these categories.
In January, the ISF published a first list of élite athletes based on the analysis of the results of the most significant races in 2012 in twelve countries in three continents. At the end of the season the 2013 élite ranking will be published and, in 2014, the goal is to include one hundred races.
The ISF 2013 World Ranking represents the first major step towards an instant panorama of the world's top races and élite runners – an indispensable tool for athletes, organisers and sponsors alike.
See the 2013 World Ranking races here: 20 Sky, 20 Ultra and 10 Vertical

Back in November 2010, Britain's Channel 4 broadcast a leaked video that appears to show men in Sri Lankan military uniforms executing bound prisoners, the camera panning across a series of bodies laid out in a ditch. Family and friends identified one of those bodies as that of Tamil Tiger TV newscaster Shoba, also known as Isaipriya. If authenticated, the video could constitute evidence that Isaipriya was murdered. It would be one step toward accountability in a long string of unsolved murders of journalists in Sri Lanka. It would also be evidence of war crimes that are said to have been committed during the final phases of the 27-year civil war between the Sri Lankan government and the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, or LTTE. But disputes have ensued between the United Nations, which claims the video is authentic, and the Sri Lankan government, which claims that it is fake.
A report from the U.N. Human Rights Council's 17th session, prepared by special rapporteur Christof Heyns and issued in May 2011, details the forensics reports and formal communications. The case drives home the need for new strategies to balance the sometimes conflicting demands of security and authoritative video journalism. To succeed, journalists must mind the difference between the integrity and the authenticity of a recording. They are not, as you might first think, the same thing.
The disputed role of the encoded date in the Channel 4 video metadata underscores the challenge. The video's encoded date is long after the depicted events allegedly took place, evidencing editing of the video and obscuring information about the incident itself. The unknown provenance of the recording has limited the options that might be used to verify a date.
But this is not the same as proof that the video is bogus. Possible motives for this alteration may have included security precautions undertaken by the individual who recorded the video, or by those who brought it to global attention. Former U.N. special rapporteur Philip Alston examined a segment of the video during his tenure. In a technical note his office issued in January 2010, contributing forensic analyst Jeff Spivack reported, "The individual who used the device to record these events may have deliberately altered the time and date settings to provide plausible deniability of his/her participation in and/or knowledge of the incident." While that individual may or may not have had journalistic intentions, security concerns permeate the later transformation of the video into journalism. Journalists for Democracy in Sri Lanka, a group that describes itself as exiled journalists working in Berlin, has reported that it obtained the video on condition of the total anonymity of its source.
Whether or not the encoded date was altered for safety purposes, forensics experts working at the request of both the U.N. and the Sri Lankan government concur that the altered date does not discredit the video's authenticity. Yet despite this expert agreement, the altered metadata has provided a platform for those seeking to discredit the video. The following comments posted to Groundviews, a Sri Lankan citizen journalism news site, are revealing: "The above question about the date IF given much more careful analysis might invalidate the Video altogether"; "No date, time, who, where? NOTHING!"; "Imaginary fellow changed the phone's date to a future date ... Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me!" The metadata alteration has provided fodder for skeptics, even if it may not constitute a flaw in evidence.
Alston's calls for an independent investigation of the events depicted on the video met with a troubling government response. In a formal communication documented in the U.N. Human Rights Council's 14th session report, the government of Sri Lanka replied to Alston, "You must give us more details of what specifically we should investigate, by indicating date or place or both." In a kind of Catch-22, the absence of information in the metadata can itself become justification for government resistance to investigation of any sort. Thus, irregular date and time stamps clearly provide an opportunity to discredit for those who wish to dismiss video evidence.
Journalists concerned that metadata in their photographs or videos might imperil themselves or their sources may scrub it out of their work for security purposes. A case in point is Vice magazine's failure to do this last week for a photograph of the software pioneer John McAfee, who was on the run from police in Belize after a neighbor was murdered. The photo provided precise information about his location, in Guatemala, and led to his deportation. This PC Magazine piece describes how metadata can be removed. In dangerous circumstances, journalists face a trade-off between the anonymity enabled through metadata erasure, and the possibility that those wishing to discredit their work may exploit such alterations.
This vulnerability highlights an inadequate distinction between the integrity and the authenticity of video. Spivack, working at Alston's request, writes, "Integrity ensures that the information presented is complete and unaltered ... but it cannot demonstrate the veracity of the scene depicted in the image." In other words, invasion of the Channel 4 video through editing may compromise its integrity, but not necessarily its authenticity.
Yet because the distinction is not carefully maintained, Spivack warns, "The fact that editing in any form has been applied to the recordings submitted for authentication will quite understandably generate skepticism or even suspicion." An official press release from the Sri Lankan government, also included in the Human Rights Council's 14th session report, cites this suspicion: "Doctoring of videos in this day and age of modern technology is a common occurrence." In turn, this suspicion has enabled the Sri Lankan government to decline further investigation into the video, and into the events it allegedly depicts. And then, with the veracity of the video evidence under question, accountability for Isaipriya's alleged murder, and that of many others, is at stake.
For video journalism to be powerful in the fight against impunity, editing in itself must be clearly separated from questions of authenticity. Better clarification of the distinction between video integrity and authenticity could help to dispel this type of deniability for future video journalism. For instance, the growing acceptance of blurring subjects' faces to mask their identities might extend to other forms of alteration that don't compromise the validity of the work. The concept of authenticity itself could also further be clarified. Juridical bodies need to inquire why interventions are made, and not simply use them to discredit brave efforts to produce evidence of war crimes.
Sri Lanka holds the rank of fourth worst country in the world on the latest CPJ Impunity Index, a spotlight on "countries where journalists are slain and killers go free." Last week, Member of Parliament P. Ariyanenthiran testified to a parliament selective committee that 44 journalists had been murdered in Sri Lanka since January 1990. Although CPJ research has found fewer cases, it's clear that Sri Lanka has been a highly unsafe place to work, a circumstance exacerbated when killers have impunity. CPJ reports that over the past decade nine murders of Sri Lankan journalists remain unsolved.
I recently returned from working in Sri Lanka as a Fulbright Senior Research Scholar investigating the dynamic between the country's diverse media groups and post-war national re-formation. I met with journalists and filmmakers who are seeking safety in secrecy, in fortified compounds, and in ideological defenses of neutrality. And I learned that safety and authenticity are often the goals behind video editing such as that evidenced by the alteration of metadata in the Channel 4 videos. Some journalists obscure time and place, making clandestine work exclusively for distribution abroad. Others are in hiding. M.V. Kanamaylnathan, editor of the newspaper Uthayan, told me that he lives inside his newspaper compound in constant fear of assault. He said he has not left its premises in years. He also tries to protect himself by appealing to the convention of journalist neutrality. When armed men came to the newspaper headquarters in the middle of the night saying, "Run our story in the paper," Kanamaylnathan told me that he responded, "There's no difference whether you are here, or the LTTE are here, or an army unit. I am a neutral paper. I'm not a party paper. We report to the people what happened yesterday." The men left.
When integrity is threatened due to such fears, the standard of authenticity has to be all the more strongly maintained, because impunity in the murder of journalists must be stopped. In this leaked video, video journalism has taken on a new role in the struggle for accountability by asking us to consider the reasons why integrity may be breached.

Steamboat Springs School Board denies expulsion appeal
Steamboat Springs — The Steamboat Springs School Board last week upheld the decision to expel a 17-year-old girl suspected of possessing marijuana with the intent to sell.
The School Board met March 24 in executive session to consider an appeal related to a Jan. 29 incident that resulted in Superintendent Brad Meeks' decision to expel the student. The incident launched an ongoing legal battle between the student and the district.
Meeks said Thursday that the Steamboat Springs School District could not discuss the case.
The district hired legal counsel to help it through the expulsion process. According to a public records request, the district has accrued $8,736.66 in legal costs associated with the case. The district has yet to be billed by the Boulder law firm Caplan and Earnest for representation at a 12-hour suspension hearing held March 4. The district also has not yet paid the hearing officer, former Moffat County Court Judge Mary Lynn James. Meeks said James charged a rate of $150 per hour.
Steamboat Springs attorneys Grant Bursek and Clark Davidson represented the student. Bursek said they took on the case for 1/50th of what they typically would charge because they believed in the girl and wanted to fight for her. In exchange, the student did volunteer work for the Steamboat Springs Arts Council.
"Someone needs to stand up for this kid," Davidson said.
Bursek and Davidson thought the girl was not treated fairly.
"I don't think the School Board is representing the true interests of the people here," Davidson said.
Bursek and Davidson said the student, whose name is being withheld because she is a juvenile, has a 3.8 GPA and had not been in trouble at school before. They said the student had been identified as an at-risk youth by school officials. She comes from a broken home and currently lives with her aunt and uncle in Hayden.
Bursek and Davidson said Jan. 29 that their client was questioned by the high school's campus supervisor, Dennis Hensen. They said Hensen questioned the student for 30 to 40 minutes because he thought she had been smoking marijuana across the street during lunch.
Bursek and Davidson said Hensen performed impairment tests on the student and determined she was not high, but the school then wanted to search a car that did not belong to the student. According to the school district policy, the school can interview students without the prior consent of parents or guardians, and cars can be searched if they have "reasonable grounds to suspect that the search will yield evidence of any illegal, unauthorized, unsafe or contraband materials."
Inside the car, a total of 6 grams of marijuana in six baggies were found inside a box. After the marijuana was found, the student wanted a lawyer. Police were called, but the Routt County District Attorney's Office did not file charges.
Bursek and Davidson said that during the expulsion hearing, four staff members testified that they had no reason to think the student was selling marijuana. The student contended the marijuana was packaged individually because that was the way she obtained it. She said she brought the marijuana with her to school because her aunt had been searching her room.
Going into the expulsion hearing, Davidson said he told his client they were going to lose.
"You're basically going to the school administration and saying, 'They're rotten and they're wrong,' and they're just going to slap you down," Davidson said.
According to Bursek and Davidson as well as the expulsion appeal decision obtained through a records request, the judge determined the student violated school district policy against possession of marijuana on school property.
"The conduct was serious, evidenced intent to sell, and raised the case to a level of discipline beyond suspension," the determination documents states.
James did not recommend the student be expelled but rather that she be suspended until the day before graduation.
Meeks did not adopt James' recommendation and chose to expel the student. Meeks said it was the first time the School Board had heard an expulsion appeal while he has been superintendent. He took the job in July 2011.
Bursek and Davidson contend the student was not selling marijuana, and she should have been suspended for five days, which they said is standard punishment for a student caught with marijuana. Meeks, who spoke generally about the school's policies, said there is no set punishment outlined in the policies.
"It's one of those things that you have to look at case by case," Meeks said.
Bursek and Davidson said the student had several reasons for fighting the expulsion.
"She was concerned if she was expelled, it would greatly decrease her chances of getting into CU or Dartmouth," Davidson said.
The attorneys said they will continue to fight for the student with goal of getting her back in school.
"School is really what she has," Davidson said.

As Senate Intelligence Committee members file into room 216 of the Hart office building in Washington for a CIA confirmation hearing this afternoon, they will be under a spotlight much brighter than they anticipated last week.
That was before a Monday NBC report unveiled leaked documentation from the Obama administration strongly implying that extrajudicial drone killings of American citizens abroad are made casually, with little meaningful oversight or geographic restriction.
Media reaction was swift and harsh. An article on the Wired site was a fairly standard sample, asking "What do you call a country where an unelected bureaucrat has the ability to order the execution of its citizens? Answer: President Barack Obama's America."
New York Magazine took a dig at the administration's wide interpretation of what an "imminent" attack is, publishing a comment about how most lawmakers outside the executive branch "tend to use widely agreed upon definitions of words."
Into that environment comes the Senate committee, on which Maryland's Barbara Mikulski sits. Committee members are likely to have astringent questions today for proposed CIA head John Brennan regarding both the leaked drone information and the way that it was released -- a selective leak some think may be an intentional attempt at dulling some lawmakers' requests for wider transparency.
One national security official, for example, mentioned that the leak of the Justice Department memo may have been timed "to blunt such congressional demands for the release of additional documents," as a Reuters story puts it. It was reported Wednesday that Brennan had already received some questioning on his role in the leaks, which may not have even served their intended purpose: Amid increasing pressure, the Obama administration ultimately agreed Wednesday night to give the Senate committee access to requested classified documents in addition to the Monday's unclassified memo.
Meanwhile, the limited public information may be enough to move other lawmakers into action. On the House side of Maryland's Congressional delegation, Rep. Steny Hoyer has already spoken about the possibility of Capitol legislators formalizing limits on drone strikes.
On Tuesday, Hoyer told the Associated Press that the issue "deserves a serious look at how we make the decisions in government to take out, kill, eliminate, whatever word you want to use, not just American citizens but other citizens as well." He added that the country should examine its priorities.
The controversy comes during a key period for Marylanders' role in that self-examination. Baltimore City Paper last week published a partial analysis of the military role played by Johns Hopkins' research on swarming, semi-autonomous drones. That publication followed an incident in May that saw an unmanned plane crashing on the state's Eastern Shore.
After that spring incident, The Sun published a map of permits for (mostly unarmed) domestic drones. That map can be viewed here.

With a displacement of just 875cc Fiat's twin-cylinder gasoline 'TwinAir' motor seemed an unlikely choice for the International Engine of the Year Award but the little engine that could has taken the top honours. The much coveted award is decided by a jury of 76 journalists and industry experts from 36 different countries and Fiat's mini mill was highly praised. The Jury were sold on the TwinAir's low emissions, high fuel economy and strong power output for its size. The TwinAir scooped four awards in total that included "Best New Engine 2011", "Best Green Engine 2011", "Best Sub 1-Litre Engine" and the "International Engine of the Year 2011" grand award.
Fiat's two-cylinder champion uses turbocharging to develop 63kW of power and currently sees service in the Fiat 500 and 500C, with further applications planned. Fiat will also introduce two other versions of the motor, a naturally aspirated variant producing 48kW and a higher-performance turbocharged variant with 78kW.
This year's awards event was held yesterday (May 18th) at the Engine Expo in Stuttgart, Germany. Other big winners included BMW with the carmaker taking out four awards. The honours included winning the "3-litre to 4-litre" category with the 4.0-litre V8 unit used in the M3, the "2.5-litre to 3-litre" division for its 3.0-litre DI Twin Turbo mill, the "1.8-litre to 2-litre" category for the 2.0-litre Twin Turbo diesel engine found in the 123d and X1, and lastly the "1.4-litre to 1.8-litre" category for the popular 1.6-litre four-cylinder turbo engine co-developed with PSA Peugeot Citroen, powering the Mini.
Second place overall in the overall competition went to Volkswagen's 1.4-litre TSI Twincharger engine, while Audi won the "2-litre to 2.5-litre" category with its powerhouse 2.5-litre five-cylinder turbocharged engine from the TT RS and RS3.
Taking out the "Best Performance Engine" title was Ferrari's 4.5-liter V8 engine used in the 458 Italia.

Yowza. We've been through one crazy day and a half. Miles had the first of two eye surgeries yesterday to correct his ptosis (droopy eyelids). Y'all, I was a nervous wreck. I love the way that Miles looks and I knew that the surgery would alter his face so much. I mean, those sleepy eyes are kinda his trademark look and it absolutely broke my heart to do anything to them.
When Miles came home from Congo, multiple eye doctors told us that he would require corrective surgery. Since we were having so many other medical issues and emotional issues with Miles we put it off and just kept up our visits to the optometrist every 6 months. The last time that we went, the doctor told us that we really couldn't put it off much longer. By not having the surgery we were risking permanent damage to his eye (which has already changed shape to compensate for the part of his pupil that is covered by his lid) and substantial vision loss. Not to mention that Miles had to tilt his head back so far to see out from under his eyelids that neck problems and balance problems were beginning to emerge.
Our surgeon opted to do two different surgeries- one eye at a time 2-4 weeks apart. Sometimes the swelling after one of these surgeries is so severe that the eyes swell shut and if both eyes were swollen shut at the same time, it would be too difficult on a little one. We went in for the first surgery on the most severe eye yesterday. Miles' right eyelid covered almost 40% of his pupil so we opted to do that one first. I can't imagine walking around having the top 40% of the world be blurry and off color, but my little man has been experiencing the world off kilter for his whole life.
Prior to this, Miles has been hospitalized three previous times that required anesthesia. Even though he is young, he remembers those times vividly. His anxiety level shot through the roof as soon as we pulled into the parking lot of the hospital. I had flashbacks of one of our darkest days ever when we took Miles to have an MRI of his brain and he bit the nurse until he drew blood and beat his head against the floor until they had to sedate him like a wild animal. It was the lowest of our low points. I was quickly drawn back to the present when I felt Miles' death grip on me while we walked in the hospital. He wanted ME. He knew that I was there to protect him. My presence was comforting to him. It was a far different reaction that our previous times at the hospital where he looked at me like I was Satan taking a lamb to the slaughter. Sometimes it's hard to see how much progress he's made until something like this happens to remind me that he's come so incredibly far from that scared, little, wild boy that he was just a year ago. I'm so proud of him.
We are so fortunate to have a rockin' awesome children's hospital in our area. They are always so great to Miles. We asked for an anti-anxiety, calming drug immediately and they loving brought him a cup of "loopy juice" to help his nerves. They set us up in a great room and turned on the movie Cars for him. I asked if they would wait and do all the procedures that they needed to do until he was under anesthesia and they obliged. They didn't even try to take his temperature or blood pressure or anything. Thank God for understanding, rock-star nurses who were sympathetic to his trauma history and were so loving to him. He got good and relaxed and watched a movie and stuck stickers all over himself until it was time for him to go back for surgery. They wheeled him away and I had a good cry over how my handsome boy would look so different from that little, droopy eyed baby I brought home from Africa.

Lake Miramar, located in the Scripps Ranch neighborhood of San Diego is a great place to connect with Nature! It's fun to bring food to feed the ducks. Our kids love coming here for outings.
When you come to the lake you'll likely see ducks, geese, squirrels, and many different types of birds. I've never done so, but many people fish here as well. The lake itself was built about 50 years ago, and is owned by the City of San Diego. It has bathrooms, barbecues, and picnic tables, hiking trails, and more.
If you were to make a circle around the lake, it's five miles round trip. It's a popular place for hikers, cyclists, inline skaters, walkers, and runners. I used to skate here daily when in college. We usually bring scooters and our kids scoot along the path. There are some little hills here, so we like to follow the paved path and head toward the farthest West area of the lake, and turn around when the kids get tired. This is not the most scenic part of the lake, but is relatively flat and easy for scooting. I always bring our jogging stroller along, and have them jump in if they get tired of scooting.
A few precautions I can tell you when visiting the lake are as follows:
• Stay on the paths, and always keep your eyes open for snakes. I have never seen a snake here, but have heard of others having an occasional encounter with a rattle snake. This is their natural habitat.
• The geese can be loud, and intimidating. I always use caution when near them, and do our best to bypass them to get to the ducks, which are usually hanging out by the boat dock and pier.
• If you ever go on a boat, be sure you use floatation.
Lake Miramar is a beautiful, fun place to visit. If you'd like more info about Lake Miramar, please click HERE. Perhaps we'll see you there!

A year ago, Michael Wacha won his first four postseason starts for the Cardinals (matching his regular-season victory total), was named MVP of the National League Championship Series and got the ball in the deciding game of the World Series. In the American League Division Series, the Athletics' Sonny Gray twice went toe-to-toe with Justin Verlander and permitted just three runs in 13 innings.
Wacha and Gray made for good baseball -- and good copy. Young starting pitchers who couldn't make the Opening Day roster yet came up huge in October provide an interesting and easy story to write on deadline.
That plotline seems to recur on an annual basis. With one big league start on his résumé, the Rays' Matt Moore shut out the Rangers for seven innings in the AL Division Series opener in 2011. Madison Bumgarner went from pitching in the mid-80s during spring training in 2010 to winning an NL Division Series clincher and twirling eight scoreless innings in the penultimate game of the World Series for the Giants seven months later.
David Price had all of 14 innings of major league experience when the Rays pressed him into bullpen duty in the 2008 playoffs, yet he responded by winning an 11-inning game and saving the clincher in the AL Division Series. The Red Sox's Jon Lester beat non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in 2006 and defeated the Rockies in the final game of the World Series in 2007. The Cardinals' Anthony Reyes got pounded for most of 2006 -- and much of his big league career -- but came up huge in the World Series opener that October, beating the Tigers with eight innings of two-run ball.
With the exception of Reyes, all of those other breakout postseason pitchers became or are on their way to becoming stars. The scenario looks likely to repeat itself again this fall, with as many as six potential candidates. We'll rank them in order, based on their team's likelihood to play in October and their chances of success:
Kevin Gausman, Orioles. The first pitcher drafted in 2012, he went fourth overall and signed for $4.32 million. Gausman also became the first starting pitcher from his draft class to reach the big leagues -- which was expected, though he got their faster than anticipated, making it to Baltimore 10 months after signing. He got hammered as a starter in 2013 and looked much better out of the bullpen, but has succeeded in the rotation with improved fastball command this season.
A regular member of Baltimore's rotation since June, Gausman has gone 7-4, 3.70 in 13 starts, though he isn't missing as many bats (48 strikeouts in 73 innings) as his stuff suggests he should. His repertoire is similar to Wacha's, as Gausman relies more on his fastball and changeup than his so-so slider. Gausman throws harder than Wacha, averaging 95 mph with his fastball, and uses a splitter/changeup. He has better pure stuff than any Baltimore starter.
Jimmy Nelson, Brewers. When first-rounder Dylan Covey opted not to sign after a post-draft physical revealed that he had Type I diabetes, second-rounder Nelson became the top pick Milwaukee landed in 2010. He emerged as the system's top prospect a year ago and was as dominant as any minor league pitcher in the first half of 2014, going 10-2, 1.46 with 114 strikeouts and a .179 opponent average in 111 innings at Triple-A Nashville. Called up in July to replace a struggling Marco Estrada in the Brewers rotation, he has ripped off five straight quality starts since the All-Star break.
Nelson primarily works with two pitches, a 92-95 mph fastball and a mid-80s slider. He doesn't trust his changeup much yet, and while lefties have tagged him for all three big league homers he has surrendered, he otherwise has limited the damage they've done. As with Gausman, Nelson has the best stuff in his rotation and, unlike many rookies, already does a commendable job of throwing strikes.
Taijuan Walker, Mariners. At Yucaipa (Calif.) High, he was better known as a basketball player who earned the nickname "Sky Walker" for his dunking prowess and averaged 21 points and 15 rebounds per game as a senior. Seattle's top pick in the 2010 draft (43rd overall in the supplemental first round), Walker signed for $800,000 and breezed through the minors quicker than expected. He reached Double-A as a 19-year-old in 2012, made his big league debut shortly after turning 21 in August 2013 and would have opened this season in the Mariners rotation if he hadn't come down with a shoulder impingement in spring training.
Though Walker has made just three starts for Seattle this year and currently is at Triple-A Tacoma, he could be primed for a big finish. He has 22 strikeouts in 13 innings over his last two starts for the Rainiers, though with the Mariners' starters all pitching well, there's no obvious opening for Walker. He has an electric 92-98 mph fastball that he can run or tail to either side of the plate, and he has established his cutter/slider as his top secondary pitch over his inconsistent curveball and changeup.
Andrew Heaney, Marlins. Miami drafted Heaney ninth overall after he led NCAA Division I with 140 strikeouts in 118 innings as an Oklahoma State junior in 2012, and despite some acrimonious negotiations, they landed him for $2.6 million on the day of the signing deadline. Considered the most polished pitcher in his draft class, he has lived up to that billing by breezing through the minors and making his big league debut this June. He recorded a quality start against the Mets in his first outing, then got hit hard in his next three before returning to Triple-A.
Nathon Eovaldi, Brad Hand and Brad Penny are getting knocked around in the back of the Marlins rotation, so Heaney could be back soon, especially after yielding just one earned run over his last two starts in New Orleans. The lone lefthander on this list, he has three pitches that all grade as plus when at their best. He has a 91-96 mph fastball that plays up because of its life and command, a swing-and-miss slider and a rapidly improving changeup.
Marcus Stroman, Blue Jays. He had arguably the most electric arm among college pitchers in the 2012, yet he lasted 22 picks because he's 5-foot-9. Duke's first-ever first-round pick and the recipient of a $1.8 million bonus, Stroman had some hopes of reaching Toronto as a reliever that season, though that ended when he drew a 50-game suspension for testing positive for amphetamine use in August, after he already had reached Double-A. The Blue Jays summoned him to their bullpen this May and installed him in their rotation at the end of the month.
Stroman has given Toronto 10 quality starts in 14 tries, going 6-4, 3.12 with a 69-20 K-BB ratio in 80 2/3 innings in the rotation. His lively 92-96 mph fastball can be unhittable -- and that's not even his best pitch. He has a wipeout upper-80s slider that he also can morph into a low-90s cutter, and he also can keep batters off balance by mixing in a hard curveball and a changeup.
Shane Greene, Yankees. Easily the most obscure pitcher on this list, Greene had Tommy John surgery as a freshman at NCAA Division II West Florida in 2008. New York spotted him after he transferred to Daytona Beach (Fla.) CC in 2009, drafted him in the 15th round that June and signed him for $100,000. He went 12-31, 4.79 in his first four years as a pro before he figured out how to command his pitches last season.
Once he was able to locate his 90-94 mph sinker and his upper-80s cutter/slider where he wanted, Greene zoomed from high Class A in June 2013 to making his big league debut this April. When injuries ravaged their rotation, the Yankees called him back up in July and have received four quality starts in seven tries. His crossfire delivery gives his pitches tough angle, making life especially difficult for righthanders.
With six weeks to go, the Marlins, Blue Jays and Yankees are clinging to faint playoff hopes, the Mariners have a solid shot and the Orioles and Brewers look like locks. Even more certain, if recent history is any indication, is that one or more of these clubs will get October pitching heroics from a youngster who couldn't crack its Opening Day roster.

This is an old shot, is just unusual. Let me know what you think.
I was goofing around at the bowling alley, waiting for Santa to finish bowling and snapping away. The bowling alley is such an awful place to take pictures, the lighting and the backgrounds are so horrible. So I was playing with the American flag on the back wall, when Maddy stepped right into my shot. How amazing is that? Maddy is the daughter of some friends of ours, and she is just gorgeous, even in black and white.
Here are some more great blog hops to join!
Since this is turning out to be such a fun contest each week. Here are the rules:
1. Take a black and white picture (or convert one you have taken to black and white). It should be a picture YOU have taken, since it is a contest, but I am relying on your honesty on this one. And really, how would I know, right? Just don't claim someone else's work as your own.
2. Post about it on your blog. Tell us as much or as little as you want to about the picture.
3. Link up after you post.

Of course you would, which is why we have sourced SmartGuard Protection, to not only keep the outside of your BMW looking good, but also the inside as well.

The Coburn‐Burr‐Ryan‐Nunes Mandate‐Price‐Control Bill
Today, Senators Tom Coburn (R‑OK) and Richard Burr (R‑NC), along with Reps. Paul Ryan (R‑WI) and Devin Nunes (R‑CA) announced that they will introduce a health care reform bill. If my reading of the bill summary is correct, their bill would:
- Mandate that states create a new regulatory bureaucracy called a "State Health Insurance Exchange,"
- Mandate that all plans offered through those exchanges meet federal regulatory standards,
- Mandate "guaranteed issue" in those exchanges,
- Mandate "uniform and reliable measures by which to report quality and price information,"
- Impose price controls on those plans by prohibiting risk‐rating,
- Launch a government takeover of the "insurance" part of health insurance, by means of a "risk‐adjustment" program intended to cope with the problems created by price controls, and
- Fall just short of an individual mandate by setting up (mandating?) automatic enrollment in exchange plans at "places of employment, emergency rooms, the DMV, etc." — essentially, trying to achieve universal coverage by nagging Americans to death.
Needless to say, I am troubled.
The bill summary is self‐contradictory. On the one hand, it lists "No Tax Increases" as a core concept. Do its authors not know that imposing price controls on health insurance premiums imposes a tax on healthier‐than‐average consumers? And where do they think the money for "risk‐adjustment" payments will come from? Heaven?
The bill sponsors seem to want to cement in place the monopoly regulation that currently exists at the state level — when they're not encouraging Congress to take over that function. Have they abandoned their colleague Rep. John Shadegg's (R‑AZ) proposal to allow for competitive regulation of health insurance?
And if Massachusetts created an "exchange" on its own, why do other states need federal legislation?
The bill includes some ideas for which I have more sympathy, like its tax‐credit proposal and expanding health savings accounts.
But the above provisions would sow the seeds of a government takeover of health care — so much so that The Washington Post's Ezra Klein is salivating:
The word of the day is "convergence." That — and that alone — is the definitive message of the conservative health reform alternative developed by Sens. Tom Coburn (Okla.) and Richard Burr (N.C.), as well as Rep. Paul Ryan (Wisc.). For now, some of the key provisions are about as clear as mud. The plan's changes to the tax code, in particular, are impossible to discern. So I'll do another post when I can get some clarity on those issues. The politics, however, are perfectly straightforward.
A superficial read of the Patients' Choice Act — which I've uploaded here — would make you think you're digging into a liberal bill. A fair chunk of the rhetoric is lifted straight from Sen. Ted Kennedy's office. "It is time to publicly admit that the health care system in America is broken," begins the document. "Health care is not a commodity in the traditional sense," it continues. "States should provide direct oversight of health insurers to make sure they are playing by fair rules," it demands. The way we pay private insurers in Medicare "wastes taxpayer dollars and lines the pockets of insurance executives," it says. Elsewhere, it praises solutions that have worked in several European countries."
And though it's still too early to say how the policy fits together, it's clear that many traditionally Democratic concepts have been embraced. To put it simply, the plan wants to encourage a version of the Massachusetts reforms — which it calls a "well‐known, bi‐partisan achievement of universal health care" — in every state. There are some differences, of course. The plan doesn't have an individual mandate. It doesn't have an obvious tax on employers. But it strongly endorses State Health Insurance Exchanges. And that, for Republicans, is a radical change in policy.
This idea — present in every Democratic proposal but absent in Arizona Sen.John McCain's plan — would empower states to create heavily regulated marketplaces of insurers. The plans offered would have to "meet the same statutory standard used for the health benefits given to Members of Congress." Cherrypicking would be discouraged through risk adjustment, which the PCA calls "a model that works in several European countries." The government would automatically enroll individuals in plans whenever they interacted with a government agency and states would be able to join into regional cooperatives to increase the size of their risk pool.
In essence, Coburn, Burr, and Ryan are abandoning the individual market entirely. Like Democrats, they're arguing that individuals cannot successfully navigate the insurance market, and they need the protection of government regulation and the bargaining power that comes from a large risk pool. This is literally the opposite approach from McCain, who attempted to unwind the employer‐based insurance and encourage families to purchase health coverage on the individual market. The core elements of this plan, in other words, make it the same type of plan Democrats are offering. A plan that enlarges consumer buying pools rather than shrinks them. It's pretty much exactly what I'd expect a Blue Dog Democrat to propose. And it's further evidence that the argument over health reform is narrowing, rather than widening. And it's narrowing in a direction that favors the Democrats.
UPDATE: After discussions with Sen. Coburn's staff, I happily issued a few corrections. Still, concerns remain.

On the evening of May 12, 2010, Bill Moreton and dozens of his Panera Bread colleagues celebrated the career of Ronald Shaich, the bakery-café's cofounder, departing CEO, and ultimate visionary. For 25 years, Shaich guided Panera's growth from a 19-unit chain into a fast-casual giant claiming $3 billion in sales.
Like many, Moreton stood at the center of that room in St. Louis and rattled off Shaich stories alongside compliments and gratitude. The room was jovial and celebratory. Moreton didn't know how different tomorrow's tone would be.
On May 13, at the company's annual meeting, Moreton again stood in that same room, for his first address and public moment as the new CEO of Panera Bread. Suddenly, life was different.
Although the transition from Shaich to Moreton was six months in the making, little prepared Moreton for the gravity of the situation, the moment in which he stepped out as
Panera's leader. As Panera's co-COO, Moreton could slide into the background; as CEO, he cannot hide.
"You feel it acutely," Moreton says of the responsibility of shepherding Panera's 1,400-plus cafés and 50,000-person workforce. "There's a successful heritage that needs to be carried on at Panera, and there's no escaping that reality."
One year later and still settling into his seat at the head of Panera's table, Moreton still feels the responsibility, yet remains confident that he—and Panera—will continue to deliver.
Panera's New Leader
Although self-assured and bright, Moreton is neither a larger-than-life personality nor pompous. Above all, he's pragmatic and a team player. In some ways Moreton even appears embarrassed to sit in Panera's CEO chair, often sending praise the way of the company's established senior leadership team.
In an hour-long one-on-one at Panera's suburban St. Louis headquarters, Moreton never expresses a single desire to put his own stamp on the brand, never breaks character to tout his own accomplishments or espouse any smarter-than-thou ambitions. The task, he says, is simply to continue Panera's charge with its company ethos and long-term outlook in mind.
"The companies that try to respond to the trend of the day easily lose their way," Moreton says. "We've cemented our roots and know what needs to be done."
Candid and articulate, the 51-year-old bispectacled Moreton speaks with energetic hand movements, often pointing—subconsciously, it seems—to the embroidered Panera logo on his blue dress shirt every time he mentions the phrase "Panera's soul"—an occurrence that is as frequent as it is enthusiastic. It's part company line, yet greater part unwavering belief in his corporate America team. Moreton's at home with Panera, perhaps a result of a five-year hiatus from the brand in which objectivity and insight into the company's distinctive qualities planted itself in his mind and compelled his return in 2008 as co-COO.
From 1998 to 2003, Moreton served as Panera's executive vice president and chief financial and administrative officer. After a short-lived retirement, he held a pair of two-year leadership posts: CEO at Wendy's subsidiary Baja Fresh, followed by a stint as president and CFO of Potbelly Sandwich Works. Both experiences reminded Moreton of Panera's charm and reinforced a pair of industry lessons that will serve as central tenets of his Panera leadership.
"At Baja Fresh, I saw the absolute necessity of communicating your points of differentiation effectively. … At Potbelly, I learned the value of choice … and the fact that people want different things at different times," he says.
Moreton returned to Panera in October 2008 and found a bigger, more robust company. The store count had doubled to more than 1,000 and Panera was no longer a minor player in the fast-casual game. Alongside record revenues and profits, Panera's stock had climbed and sat in the top tier of all companies in the Russell 1000.
Above all, Moreton rediscovered the Panera culture he so admired, one difficult to explain when he was in the executive trenches each day, yet easy to recognize upon his homecoming.
"The company's size and scale had changed, but we were talking about the same issues in the same way," Moreton says. "Panera's DNA—how you treat customers, how you improve, how you innovate—didn't budge."
The succession plan from Shaich to Moreton was officially announced in November 2009 and many wondered how Panera would fare as Shaich, the brand's only CEO, ceded control to Moreton.
Shaich was a gut-trusting mover and shaker, an industry legend in many quarters for turning the then-modest St. Louis Bread Company into the fast-casual behemoth that is today's Panera. But Moreton possesses a blue-collar vibe, a clear product of his Chicago roots and a nod to the Midwestern city long known for fostering lunch-box-and-hard-hat characteristics and matter-of-fact sensibilities even in its most polished professionals.
"Let's face it," the father of two youngsters says, "this isn't the fashion industry. We're selling soup, salad, and sandwiches, which don't go out of style."
Unlike Shaich, who remains involved as Panera's executive chairman, Moreton doesn't face the task of building a national brand from the ground up. But Moreton does inherit the burden of a company on top of the fast-casual category. Few cared what St. Louis Bread Company did in the mid-1990s; now in 2011, competitors and customers watch Panera with earnest eyes. The company's movement throughout Moreton's tenure will be analyzed, critiqued, studied, and judged. Moreton acknowledges the attention, but doesn't seem at all concerned.
"There's a big target on our back. People watch to see what we do with our menu, our environment," he says. "But I don't think people realize that it's the combination of so many factors that have made Panera what it is."
Of course, Moreton recognizes some of the company's inherent advantages, all of which provide him the confidence to believe that Panera will remain an industry leader. He points to Panera's size and scale as particular advantages. With $3 billion in systemwide sales, the company exhibits purchasing power and leverage rare in the fast-casual category. Furthermore, Panera's national name recognition attracts customers and quality staff, while longstanding relationships with vendors lead to proprietary equipment capable of increasing the bakery-cafés' efficiency and throughput.
"While some would use that leverage to cut costs, we've chosen to use it to come up with quality and innovation that others cannot match," Moreton says.
One Year Down
When Moreton entered the CEO's office, he viewed his new role as a relay race. Shaich handed the baton; Moreton is required to keep the pace.
"We've been lucky to be successful for so long," Moreton says. "Every decision we make now is about continuing that streak with the same philosophical moorings and bent."

Wow, how exciting! My website, www.keatleyphoto.com was just published in this years PDN Photo Annual as one of the top photography websites. In addition to the magazine, all of the contest winners and judges can be seen in an online gallery. When my current website went live last year, I was feeling really good about my chances of getting it into PDN thanks to the excellent work of my graphic designer Greg Lutze. I entered it into the competition, but never heard anything back. When I saw on Twitter the winners were being notified and I didn't hear anything, I figured I didn't make the cut and I put it out of my mind.
Last week I was emailing with a friend, and he said, congrats on your site in PDN. I had no idea what he was talking about, but sure enough, my site was selected. I just thought I would share my excitement, and take this opportunity to encourage you to take a peek at one of the best photography websites of year!

Yesterday I went for a haircut. I put on a dress and dropped the boys off and got a giant diet soda and headed to the salon. I love love love getting my hairs cut. I love sitting and gabbing with Maggie, my hairdresser about all the latest reality sleaze. We are both junkies and it's nice to be in like minded company. Midway through my transformation, we realized that maybe we should have taken pictures to document the process. But, though I am usually shameless, I will not pull out my camera phone and take pictures of myself all up in public for the sake of blogging about them later. ( I reserve that kind of behavior for my house) But never fear, I'm documenting the whole thing right here in homemade pictures. This is my before shot:
Then there is the rinsing, washing and actual cutting to take care of. I told my hairdresser that I wanted bangs like Farrah from Teen Mom. God help me that I'm taking my fashion cues from a girl whose only claim to fame is that her reproductive organs work. Then we discussed Teen Mom at great length. Isn't that what responsible adults do when they get together?
I walked out of there a whole new woman with my Leeza haircut and my Farrah bangs. I'd take a real picture of myself but when I came home, that microscopic zit I mentioned in the first picture, beckoned me after staring at in the mirror for nearly two hours while I got my ears lowered. I couldn't help it. I tried to resist it's shiny redness calling out to me, but I was weak. I poked and prodded and otherwise made a giant mess of my whole left cheek. I tried to put concealer on it, but it only served to highlight the crater on my face. So the best that you get from my makeover is this:
