Notes: Freshman A.J. Simcox led a potent offensive attack for the Vols which pounded out 34 hits over three games against the talented Vanderbilt pitching staff.
The Knoxville native paced the squad with a .545 average, going 6-for-11 with three runs scored and two RBIs. He had a double, walked once, dropped down a pair of sacrifice bunts and stole a base while handling everything that came his way defensively at short despite playing on an extremely wet and slick surface.
Simcox had two hits in the series opener and another on Saturday before breaking out with a 3-for-4, two-RBI effort in the series finale on Sunday. He got the scoring started in that game with a two-run single in the second inning off of former high school teammate Philip Pfeifer. He also doubled, laid down a sac bunt, reached on a fielder's choice and had a single, scoring twice in a 12-8 loss.
He has seen his bat come alive in SEC play, during which he is second on the team with a .385 batting average. In nine games, Simcox is 10-for-26 with four RBIs, two doubles and four runs scored.
Tennessee hung tough against No. 3 Vanderbilt all weekend but couldn't quite find a way to finish off the Commodores, falling in all three games in Nashville.
The Vols' best opportunity likely came on Friday night when Zack Godley matched VU ace Kevin Ziomek pitch-for-pitch and gave them seven strong innings with eight strikeouts. UT was in the lead or tied the entire game but never delivered a knockout blow, allowing the Commodores to walk-off with a 4-3 win in 12 innings.
It was another game of missed opportunities on Saturday as the Big Orange committed three errors and left nine runners stranded in scoring position in an 8-3 Vanderbilt victory. The big blow for the Commodores came late in that game as they plated five runs in the eighth inning to break the game open late.
On Sunday, Tennessee found itself with a late lead once again, only to have a grand slam by VU's Kyle Smith propel his team to a 12-8 triumph. UT junior Scott Price paced a 16-hit attack in that contest, going a perfect 4-for-4 with three RBIs and a walk. Through the first nine SEC games, he has been the team's top hitter with a .405 average and nine RBIs.
Freshman A.J. Simcox had a strong weekend at the dish as well, hitting .545 (6-for-11) with three runs scored, two RBIs and a stolen base. He is second on the squad with a .385 average during league play.
Tennessee will return to Rocky Top for a four-game homestand this week, starting with a 3 p.m. contest against Longwood on Tuesday. The Vols will then welcome perennial power South Carolina to Knoxville, April 5-7. The series will open at 6 p.m. on Friday night before a 12:30 showdown on Saturday which will be televised on SportSouth. The two teams will close out the weekend at 2 p.m. on Sunday.

House for holiday duty - Two services on two Sundays and care of two cats. To stay in my cottage situated between Bala and Betwsy Coed. Dates around 9-23 June.
A Welsh schoolteacher was teaching the Welsh alphabet to one of her pupils. They reached 'f' for ficer - the Welsh for vicar - and there was a picture of an elderly man in a dog collar.
'That's not the vicar,' the girl protested in Welsh. When the teacher insisted it was a vicar, the girl became quite agitated; her brother was called to explain to the teacher that their vicar was 'a lady'. The girl would never have seen a male vicar in her life.
The Reverend Sally Brush is amused at this generation growing up around her who have little idea that men can be priests, too. When she moved here to Cerrigydrudion in North Wales 16 years ago, she was its first woman priest.
One or two people weren't very happy, of course, but the parish hadn't had a vicar for two years. There weren't enough men to do the job. It was a case of, 'If we don't take this person are we actually going to find anybody else?'
There still aren't enough to go around. Arranging holiday cover is not easy.
Usually vicars can rely on retired priests living locally. They did have one living locally, but he died earlier this year. They're pretty thin on the ground in these parts. Mostly they retire to the seaside, 30 miles to the north.
This summer, she wants a holiday. Her goddaughter is getting married in a small village just outside Exeter. She's officiating. Luckily Cerrigydrudion is beautiful. You walk out of the doors of one of Sally's churches and can see all of Snowdonia. If the mist's not down, that is.
So when she advertised for help in return for free accommodation here, she wasn't surprised that the first call of five came at 10 in the morning The Church Times hit the streets. Vicars can't afford expensive holidays.
Sally believes that in her line of work it's important to have a break; to take the time to go somewhere different. It's sad when clergymen retire and realise they have nothing to do all day. It's a big job. It can fill your life. She has a day off each week, but she'll use that just to catch up with practical domestic jobs like shopping.
Here she is in charge of the parishes of Cerrigydrudion, Pentrefoelas, Ysbyty Ifan and Llanfihangle GM. It is a huge piece of geography.
But she grew up in the country, so she understands its problems. She watched that documentary series where a young vicar from the town goes to live in the country. 'Bless him,' she thought. 'He's not got much idea.'
Foot-and-mouth gave this scattered community a terrible time. For months all communal events were cancelled. Sally could only speak to some parishioners on the phone. If she did go to visit a farm, she'd have to go straight home afterwards and wash all her clothes. People here are only just coming to realise it's behind them.
Sally's way of keeping a life for herself outside of the priesthood is studying. She's completing a PhD in local Welsh history.
At her service last Sunday, she produced a photocopy of a sermon that had been preached there in Cerri in 1722. At communion she used a chalice presented to the church in 1755. They've recently taken down the church bells while they repair the roof. One dates back to 1575; it is, as Sally says, seriously old.
This gives her a sense of continuity. They are part of something bigger. She looks in the baptism register and sees families stretching back four or five generations. Yesterday she was teaching a confirmation class to seven children - six she had baptised herself.
Times are tough for farmers around here, as they are for the clergy. In the country, you can feel isolated; but then, the 55-year-old priest says, you look backwards over time and see what you're a part of.

Happy New Year! Orange you resolved to add more antioxidant-rich fruit to your diet? Winter citrus is in season—make the most of it, get "juiced" about juicing. At first glance, what may seem like a cheeky piece of kitchen sculpture is actually an electric juicer that fresh squeezes citrus in minutes. The orange citrus juicer features a pressure-activated reamer, non-drip spout, and clever orange lid that serves as a collection bowl and 3 ½ cup pitcher. Cleanup's a snap as plastic components pop right off the base and are dishwasher safe. And if orange juice isn't your thing, this versatile juicer can also accommodate lemons, limes, grapefruit and more. This year, boost your intake of fruits. Consider vitamin c-ing the benefits of fresh squeezed juice in your household!
Want to spice up your holidays? Look no further than these amorous elves! The Kissing Elves Salt & Pepper set includes a duo of hard-working ceramic helpers with a truly magnetic attraction. Ingenious magnets in their lips allow the boy and girl elves to kiss when placed together—no mistletoe required! Dishwasher safe, and easy to fill and clean, these kissing cuties would make an adorable addition to any holiday table.
Diamonds may be a girl's best friend but pearls are apparently king of the kitchen. This string of pearls isn't to adorn your neck though. These porcelain gems protect your counters and tables from unsightly scorch marks. But the best thing about this trivet is that it's adjustable. Simply twist your pearls into the shape and size that best fits your pot and you're good to go. Besides…your country bumpkin dutch oven can probably use all the help she can get in the glam department.
Meet Gaby Green! She's here to grate your cheese into shape. According to her bio "this lady has a style all her own. Functional fashion is her thing. Her outfits are always sharp even if sometimes they're a little cheesy." This useful dame is even comprised of a recycled plastic and wood blend.
Gaby isn't the only Green that can grace your kitchen though. There's an entire family of Greens including Mayor Corey Green (an apple corer), Marshall Green (potato masher), and Joyce Green (citrus reamer). By the way, if your Green happens to need to go to that "great kitchen in the sky" please remember that they can be recycled in this life too.
How do you like your eggs in the morning? I like mine with a flip. There's no mistaking, this fried-egg shaped spatula is as functional as it is cute—whether you like your eggs scrambled, sunny side up, fried, poached, or made into tasty omelets or frittatas, the Tovolo Egg Spatula with its thin plastic head allows you to lift and flip with precision. Heat resistant to 400F and dishwasher safe, this EGGscelent kitchen tool has a sturdy stainless and nylon construction that won't scratch non-stick cookware and is easy to clean. With apologies to the Pointer Sisters, I just have to say (of this fun and funky spatula), I'm so EGGcited and I just can't hide it. I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I want you, I want you!
You can never have too many sets of measuring utensils so put the groove back into your baking routine with these smashing flower-shaped tools. Available as cups or spoons these bright essentials are made from super strong melamine and they're dishwasher safe. You'll be amazed at what a little flower power can do for your overall kitchen mood.
Ninjas are awesome! So is properly seasoned food. Bring these dudes to your table and you'll have the best of both worlds. This Ninja Salt and Pepper shaker set comes with two ceramic warriors ready to serve. With coordinating black and white sashes, a miniature throwing star and sword, these fearsome assassins are really very cute. A word of caution: while these kitchen ninjas won't kill you in your sleep, a too-heavy hand with the pepper might give you heartburn. Proceed with dietary vigilance.
Edamame is a relatively new staple in my culinary repertoire. It started innocently enough with some tentative sampling at various sushi restaurants and resulted in a fiendish love of the little green soy beans that has blossomed into a full on obsession. I find myself buying edamame all the time now. Sometimes I'll even cook a batch and eat them lightly dusted with sea salt instead of popcorn while watching television. I suppose there are many worse things I could confess to eating though so all in all this is at the very least a healthy food compulsion. If you love edamame too and wish to never be parted from their flavorful presence then I'd recommend attaching your house keys to this Popping Edamame Keychain. That way you can enjoy the popping sensation again and again even when you don't have a boiling pot of salted water readily on hand.

Two-time Booker winner Carey tops 2010 shortlist
By Matt Falloon
LONDON (Reuters Life!) - Two-time Man Booker winner Australian author Peter Carey, Emma Donoghue and Andrea Levy go head to head in a final field of six authors vying for one of the world's most influential literary prizes.
But the popular-selling and controversial "The Slap" by Christos Tsiolkas did not make the cut for the 2010 Man Booker Prize shortlist, the judges said on Tuesday.
The other shortlisted authors are Howard Jacobson with "The Finkler Question," Damon Galgut with "In a Strange Room" and Tom McCarthy, who is among the bookmakers' favorites to win the prize with his critically acclaimed novel "C."
The winner of the 50,000 pound ($76,790) prize, which can catapult an unknown author to worldwide success, will be announced on October 12.
The judges, chaired by former Poet Laureate Sir Andrew Motion, had to whittle down a list of 13 previously selected books which the organizers said had achieved the best sales for a so-called "long list" since 2001.
Motion waxed lyrical about the talents of 67-year-old Carey, who could become the first author to win the prize three times with his novel "Parrot and Olivier in America."
"It's like being alive at the same time as Dickens," Motion told reporters at the unveiling of the short list in London. "I think he's that good."

Survivors of Pakistan's flood lay foundations for new homes and livesDec 14, 2010
Struggling to help her husband with a long-term respiratory illness when their wooden house was swept away by catastrophic flooding in the north of Pakistan, Gul Numa, over 80 years old, survived the initial weeks of August in a makeshift camp.
Numa and her husband, Sayed Qalandar Shah, 90, were among five families uprooted from Hassanabad village in the Chitral district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, one of the areas worst affected by waters which spread across one fifth of the country starting in July.
The villagers' wooden and bamboo thatched houses, agricultural lands, fruit orchards, and fields of cattle were submerged under a landscape of boulders, gravel and sand. The only bridge connecting the village to the main road was washed away.
With winter approaching, the impoverished families needed urgent assistance. But with few remaining resources they were staying in government-run camps, waiting for help to move into more permanent accommodation.
Agha Khan Planning and Building Services, a local partner of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), located Gul Numa's son living in a nearby village and provided him with the materials to build a disaster-proof house.
The houses, made of poplar wood and stone masonry are 400 square feet and cost the equivalent of US$1,000. Their interior - living room, kitchen, storage space and washroom - is insulated from harsh winters and protected with a water-resistant roof.
Inhabitants able to take part in construction of the houses were involved in collecting stones and laying foundations for the low-cost structures whose materials and architecture are also designed to reduce wood fuel consumption by 40 to 60 percent.
The five Hassanabad families moved from their temporary shelters into new houses last week, and Gul Numa expressed gratitude for the rapid construction and facilities in her new home.
"I am happy," she said. "My new home has an attached bathroom and will not collapse in an earthquake like an ordinary house. They are even installing a cooking stove for me. I pray for the long life of these people who have done so much for us."
UNDP aims to expand the house-building project to other parts of the country, for example to the worst-affected areas of Sindh province. Plans are underway to construct 2,612 units in the province's Thatta district that will benefit 10,028 poor households.
Proceeds from the Match Against Poverty will go towards meeting the housing needs of displaced people like those in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, in Sindh, and at other flooded sites across the country.
The efforts are part of US$120 million early recovery programme launched by the Government of Pakistan and UNDP to create jobs, repair basic community infrastructure, and strengthen local government offices.
Overall, 18 million people were affected by the flooding with 1.8 million houses damaged or destroyed. The cost of rebuilding Pakistan is estimated at US$9 billion.

Final anguish long behind Cliftonville: Johnston
Barry Johnston says Cliftonville's 2009 Irish Cup final loss to Crusaders has been well and truly "put to bed".
Mark Dickson's matchwinner at a sun-splashed Windsor Park settled the first ever north-Belfast derby on the showpiece occasion.
Crusaders won the glittering prize for the first time since 1968 while their neighbours were left with only huge regrets.
It took Johnston a long time to recover from that nightmare, knowing that himself and Ryan Catney failed to rise to the occasion in midfield.
But a lot of water has passed under the bridge since that historic day and this season it's the Reds who have been on fire.
Johnston and Catney have pulled the strings in the middle, guiding their side to IRN-BRU League Cup success and Gibson Cup glory.
Now Glentoran stand in their way of a terrific treble in Saturday's Irish Cup final.
But as far as Johnston is concerned, there is no ghost of 2009 to be exorcised.
"Myself and Ryan were terrible that day, we are the first to admit it," he said.
"When these things happen you have to put things right and I think we can say we have done that. It's been put to bed and its history.
"We have had a great season and the trophies we have won – especially the league title – helps erase that cup final against Crusaders from my memory.
"It hurt at the time but hopefully that was just a one-off disappointing occasion. This club should be about winning trophies and I'm now part of a squad which has a great winning mentality.
"We don't know when we are beaten and you could see that on the day we won the league. We kept going and Geordie's (George McMullan) late penalty saw us home.
"You've got to play for the full 95 minutes right up until the final whistle.
"We deserved to win the league and if we can play our normal game on Saturday it should be enough to win the Irish Cup too."
While Cliftonville are firm favourites to realise their treble dream at Windsor, Glentoran, who have lifted the Irish Cup on 20 occasions are chasing a first triumph since 2004.
Johnston was a 72nd minute substitute in that final settled by Michael Halliday's winning goal.
Now in his third spell at the Reds, the midfield general knows the Glens are capable of gatecrashing the treble party.
"Andy Waterworth has had a great season for the Glens and having played with Carsy (Stephen Carson) I know what he can do," added Johnston.
"You also have Richard Clarke who is a threat going forward but from our perspective it's about us showing what we can do. We don't fear anyone and we have the players who can hurt teams.
"Glentoran know how to play good football and get the ball on the deck and pass it around so hopefully it will be a good watch.
"I think it would be a very sweet victory if we could win it. People talk about the 1979 cup winning side and it really has been too long for a club this size.
"But we are the league champions and the onus is on us to go out and show everyone just why we have finished top of the league this season."

Advice Questions about Parents:
Dear IML,
My parents put a lot of pressure on me. I get good grades in school, but sometimes I feel like even A's and B's aren't enough for them. I still have to go to bed at 9pm, and they won't let me get instant messenger or go to any chat rooms or anything. It's almost as if they are trying to keep me a little kid. How can I express to them that I want to be able to grow up without feeling guilty?
--Maya, 12
Dear Maya,
It's natural to feel like nothing you do is enough to please your parents. I worry all the time about what my mom thinks. And you are right: Most parents do want to keep their children little kids. They know they can't hold on to you forever, but they're afraid that you're not ready to handle the tough and scary stuff that's out in the world, and they want to be able to protect you. But you shouldn't feel guilty about wanting to grow up, because everyone has to do it sometime. Sit down with your parents and explain to them all the good things you've done that show responsibility (such as getting good grades, doing your chores, etc.). Tell them that you think that because of your responsibilities, you should be allowed one or two extra privileges. Just be honest with them and don't get overexcited; keep your cool and try to act mature. You might just find that parents can be pretty reasonable people sometimes!
--Rachel, IML Mentor
Hey Maya!
Sometimes, parents can be overprotective. I didnt get much pressure from my mom, but my dad really pushed me. Now I understand its because he understood what I was capable of doing and he didnt want to see me slack off. It may sound too simple, but I believe that the best way to get treated more grown up is to ACT more grown up. After all, actions speak louder than words! Little by little, start taking more initiative. Start by doing the dishes before your mom asks, or clean your room before you're told. Most importantly, be accountable for your actions. If you make a mistake or do something wrong, don't make excuses. Instead, admit your mistake and try to fix it, and commit yourself to not doing it again. Keep in mind, though, that although chatting online with friends and staying up until midnight can be fun, being more grown up has a lot of downsides. Once you start to be accountable for you actions, you cant go back; after you take on more responsibility, that's the way it will be for life. Good luck!
--Vanessa, IML Mentor
Hi Maya,
Believe it or not, it is possible to grow up and still listen to your parents. Open a discussion about letting you go to bed a little later or getting an instant messenger, and listen to what they have to say in return. Make compromises. Perhaps you could reach an agreement that you will stay up an extra 45 minutes each night to start with, and you will make sure you are in bed by that time every night without being told. Maybe they will let you get an instant messenger if you promise to only talk to friends or relatives you already know, or perhaps offer to let your parents check all your IM contacts profiles before you chat. Let them know why you want to do or have these things...and you need a better answer than because all your friends are allowed to. Maybe you feel you need more free time, so in the evenings you would like to stay up longer, or you like working with the computer because of the resources it offers. Try to be respectful in your discussion. Wanting to grow up is perfectly natural, but keep in mind that learning to respect and deal with people, including your parents, is part of that growing up. Good luck!
--Carren, IML Mentor
Dear Maya,
I know exactly how you feel! Even now, there are times when I feel like I'm being treated like a baby by my parents. One of the hardest things for parents is seeing their kids grow up. While it seems to go slowly for us, I've heard many, many parents say that from diapers to graduation, it's like 'the blink of an eye.' You should try telling your parents how you feel, and try to see their side of things. To get privileges, you need to prove you're responsible. Chat rooms and even instant messaging can be dangerous, and you need to make it clear to them that you understand the risks and know how to get out of a situation that makes you feel uncomfortable. As for your grades, you can't get much better than A's and B's, so it's possible that some of the pressure is coming from yourself. What matters is that youre giving all your effort. If your parents truly aren't happy with your grades, then I suggest talking to them and perhaps getting a school counselor involved.
--Lauren, IML Mentor
Dear IML,
I think I have a singing/acting talent that I take seriously, but no one else will! Not even my parents! How do make people take my interests seriously?
--Candi, 12
Dear Candi,
I think the best way to get your family to take your talents seriously is to show them how serious YOU are about them! If your parents approve, try out for plays, choirs, and musical showcases in your school and community. When its time for a performance, invite your family to come watch, and hopefully theyll see how committed, passionate, and talented you are. You may want to think about how youre expressing your interests to your parents. If youre telling them that you only want to sing and act for the rest of your life, they may not approve because the reality is, a lot of aspiring actors and actresses never find regular work. But if you explain that acting and singing is a hobby that youd like to pursue while studying for some type of college degree -- perhaps even something related to your talent -- your parents may feel better because they know youre keeping your options open.
--Tiffany, IML Mentor
Hi Candi,
Have you tried to get involved in any talent shows or plays? It would get your name out there, and people would be able to see firsthand how good an actress and singer you are. If you want to take the next step, have you tried to find acting or singing lessons in your area that you can afford? You might want to ask your schools music and drama teachers for suggestions. After you've found one, talk to your parents about your plans to help pay for them. Be understanding if they're reluctant, because it takes a commitment from both of you. Focus on how pursuing these talents make you feel better about yourself and not so much on becoming a big star someday, because not everyone with serious talent can be successful in the entertainment world.
--Megan, IML Mentor
Dear Candi,
Maybe you should try talking to your parents one more time about this. This time, really try to let them know exactly how serious you are and what you want to do about it. You can also go to your school counselor and see if she/he can give you information on school or after-school performing arts programs. Try to find programs that arent too expensive or those that could be offered for free. Once you find a program and have information on it, you can present that to your parents. Explain that its a fun program that you'll be happy in and that your school counselor approves of. This will hopefully let them know how serious you are about pursuing acting and singing.
--Julissa, IML Mentor
Dear IML,
My mom doesn't want me in chat rooms. I like to go to chat rooms because it's fun to talk to other kids. I would never ever meet a perfect stranger in real life if I only talked to them in a chat room. And if someone makes me feel uncomfortable, I know that I should ignore that person and leave. I'm old enough and know all the safety precautions and stuff. How can I tell her that I'm old enough to just chat with other kids?
Dear M.J.,
You sound very mature, as you do care about how your mom feels about your going to chat rooms. You seem to know what you're doing and what it means to play it safe online. I think the most important thing is not to tell, but to show. Allow her to sit beside you and let you go into a chat room. Show her that it's just a place where kids from all over America or even the world exchange ideas. Ask her to quiz you on certain online situations. This way, she can make an informed decision on whether or not youre ready. If she decides that you are not, you should respect that for the time being. If she decides that you are, enjoy the chat roomsbut make sure you live up to her trust and not let her down!
--Joyce, IML Mentor
Dear M.J.,
I'm glad that you understand the dangers of chatting online. Your mom is only looking out for your safety (not such a bad thing, you know!) but I understand how much you want to prove to her that you can handle it. She might be more comfortable letting you chat if you install a filter on your computer. Sometime when she's not busy, sit down and talk to her. Explain that you are responsible, and point out examples of how you've handled yourself responsibly in the past. It's hard for parents to watch their children grow into responsible, independent teenagers, but if you talk to her calmly, without yelling, and make your case, youve done your best to get her to change her mind.
--Megan, IML Mentor
Dear M.J.,
It sounds like you are responsible and you know how to stay safe online, but you have to put yourself in your mom's position. She loves you and with everything you hear nowadays, its normal for her to be worried. My advice is for you to try and make her see you are trustworthy. Maybe if you invite her to sit with you one day as you participate in a chat room, she can see exactly what it is you do and who youre talking to and will trust you a bit more. Also, almost more importantly, let her know that she can come and see what you are doing anytime she wants. It might take a little time for her to be completely comfortable, but just be honest and try to make her see that you know how to stay safe.

text: Two years ago I embarked on a project to build a sweet ride using a 1950 chevy pickup and the suspension from a 1987 vette. Life has changed and, while I don't NEED to sell the truck, I don't have any time to continue working on it, so I am wondering what it's worth in its half-finished state. The body was rough to start with, but the cab and front (inner and outer fenders, firewall, hood) have been beautifully restored. Most of these old trucks have doors that have big gaps on one side or another, but these have been tightened up and look great. The door handles have been shaved and poppers installed. The dash was replaced entirely for a clean stock look. The old floor with the crappy original seat was cut out and a new floor fabricated. Any seat (bench or bucket) can be installed without a lot of modification since it is now a clean surface. The bed of this truck is still in unrestored condition and could be replaced or restored depending on your level of skill/dedication. I had planned to restore the metal and mill the wood to go into the bed myself.The frame has been partially boxed in to accommodate the greater power (power!) that I planned to put in it. I bought a 1987 Vette and cut it apart myself (tear drop...), then tied the crossmembers into the frame. It is square, solid, and painted black (any rust was eliminated with extreme prejudice). We threw in some good quality, adjustable coil-overs and this roller looks good. The Vette wheels are on it right now, but should be replaced with something more awesome (unless you just have a thing for late 80s wheels. I'm not judging.). The motor is a red blooded 383 built by Competition Motor Sports in Sarasota, FL. They started with the 350 block from the Vette, bored it out, made it beautiful in its own rite, and added built aluminum heads, new cam (went with one that will sound great but isn't too aggressive so it would be fun to drive), pistons and rods, Edelbrock intake manifold, etc. The engine is not yet assembled (because I was really looking forward to doing that myself), but should put out somewhere between 400 and 425 hp. I will come back with the brand names when I remember to look at them later. I do not have a transmission for the truck. Anything else that I didn't list, I don't have.This is for someone who wants a project at the fun stage (you know, assembly...) without spending a ton of money. This thing could be completed in a really nice way for less than $10k. The truck is near Tampa, FL. I would like to get about $12k for it, which is less that I've put in. What do you guys with more experience think?Thanks very much for any input.

About Barbara Wertheim Tuchman
Barbara Wertheim Tuchman (/ˈtʌkmən/; January 30, 1912 – February 6, 1989) was an American historian and author. She became widely known first for The Guns of August (later August 1914), a best-selling history of the prelude to and the first month of World War I, which won the Pulitzer Prize for General Non-Fiction in 1963.
Tuchman focused on writing popular history. Her clear, dramatic storytelling covered topics as diverse as the 14th century and World War I, and sold millions of copies.
Life and career
Tuchman was the daughter of the banker Maurice Wertheim. She was a first cousin of New York district attorney Robert M. Morgenthau, a niece of Henry Morgenthau, Jr. and granddaughter of Henry Morgenthau Sr., Woodrow Wilson's Ambassador to the Ottoman Empire. She received her Bachelor of Arts from Radcliffe College in 1933.
She married Lester R. Tuchman, an internist, medical researcher and professor of clinical medicine at Mount Sinai School of Medicine, in 1939; they had three daughters (one of whom is Jessica Mathews).
From 1934 to 1935 she worked as a research assistant at the Institute of Pacific Relations in New York and Tokyo, and then began a career as a journalist before turning to books. As a journalist she was the editorial assistant for The Nation and an American correspondent for the New Statesman in London, the Far East News Desk, and the Office of War Information (1944–45).
Tuchman was a trustee of Radcliffe College and a lecturer at Harvard University, University of California, and the U.S. Naval War College. A tower of Currier House, a residential division of Harvard College was named in her honor.
Tuchman's Law
Disaster is rarely as pervasive as it seems from recorded accounts. The fact of being on the record makes it appear continuous and ubiquitous whereas it is more likely to have been sporadic both in time and place. Besides, persistence of the normal is usually greater than the effect of the disturbance, as we know from our own times. After absorbing the news of today, one expects to face a world consisting entirely of strikes, crimes, power failures, broken water mains, stalled trains, school shutdowns, muggers, drug addicts, neo-Nazis, and rapists. The fact is that one can come home in the evening--on a lucky day--without having encountered more than one or two of these phenomena. This has led me to formulate Tuchman's Law, as follows: "The fact of being reported multiplies the apparent extent of any deplorable development by five- to tenfold" (or any figure the reader would care to supply).
Awards and honors
Tuchman twice won the Pulitzer Prize for General Non-Fiction, first for The Guns of August in 1963, and again for Stilwell and the American Experience in China, 1911-45 in 1972. She won a U.S. National Book Award in History for the first paperback edition of A Distant Mirror in 1980.
Also in 1980 the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) selected Tuchman for the Jefferson Lecture, the U.S. federal government's highest honor for achievement in the humanities. Tuchman's lecture was entitled "Mankind's Better Moments."
In 1985, Saturday Review magazine named her one of the country's "Most Overrated People in American Arts and Letters," commenting that "over the years [she has made] an unhappy transition from writing history as a moral lesson to writing moral lessons as history."

Auckland Wine Tour Shore Excursions for Cruise Ships
New Zealand is a food and wine lover's paradise and for many cruise ship travellers experiencing local wine and food is a must-do.
1 / 6
If gastronomy and wine tasting is high on your agenda, then a private wine tour is just the thing for you.
Whilst many cities around the world have wineries close by, Auckland is one of very few that's got them literally on its doorstep. Generations of wine-makers have made Auckland home and for good reason. Climatically, this region is blessed with a temperate climate and fertile soils; the perfect ingredients for great wine.
Just 30 minutes west of central Auckland lies Kumeu, Auckland's oldest wine region. This small country town is steeped in history, with many of the local wineries dating back to the arrival of the Croatians in the 1930s. Set amongst green rolling hills, market gardens and orchards, the vineyards which drape this region's hillsides thrive among its fertile soils and produce a diverse and shockingly good range of wine.
Matakana is less than an hour's drive north and offers excellent stop-offs en route. It's close enough to make a quick visit from the city, yet remote enough to make you feel you're a million miles away. Along with its natural drawcards of marine reserves and regional parks, it's dotted with antique shops and craft studios and hosts a weekly farmers' market on Saturdays, packed with fresh, local produce.
The wine trail itself boasts breathtaking beaches, native bush, lush valleys, meandering rivers and gently rolling hills. On Auckland's wild west coast the surf pounds black volcanic sands. Moody, magnificent and deserving respect. To the north the Matakana coast stretches from Puhoi to Pakiri and is dotted with deserted scenic bays and recreational reserves.
Auckland is indeed a wonderful city; home to great food and wine. The wineries we visit are within easy reach of the city and our door to door service means you'll get the most out of your short time in Auckland. With our local knowledge and expertise we'll help you explore the region, escape the crowds and indulge in the very best local food and wine around.
Escape the crowds and travel in style
At Boutique Wine Tours we create personal and unique experiences for wine lovers in an intimate and engaging Kiwi way with luxury transport, exquisite wine, friendly guides and a generous sprinkling of the all-important special touches.
Our private half-day and full-day tours to Kumeu and Matakana are the perfect way to experience some of New Zealand's finest countryside and the best wine and food around – at your own pace and in style.
Visit our website www.boutiquewinetours.co.nz to find out more.

Amongst a collection of block cuts and brash colours those sheers and cutaways were sorely needed: without them looks such as the above might have been altogether without femininity.

Emmanuelle Chriqui Drops By "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon"
Stepping out for a promotional appearance, Emmanuelle Chriqui was spotted at "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" last night (August 29).
The beautiful brunette babe looked lovely as she chatted with Fallon, sporting massive hoop earrings along with a black shirt with floral designs and jeans.
During the course of her interview, Emmanuelle brought up the new stage production she's in, titled "Love, Loss, and What I Wore."
Ms. Chriqui also noted that there are only two episodes of her hit show "Entourage" left before the series is over- a fact Fallon was not excited about.

I have a 6 month old american bulldog how much should he be eating and how many times a day should he be fed

- Cast your vote for which answer you think is best!
Enough that you can feel his ribs but not see them. . . how's that for a non-answer? :-D I would start with three times a day, and if he doesn't eat within an hour of being fed any of those times, drop it down to twice a day. If you follow a feeding guide, be sure to use one for growing puppies of his breed size. Kodiak needed a good bit more even than they recommended for large breed puppies. He was gaining about 12 pounds a month at that age, and not getting any fatter!

I hve always tryed to feed my puppies at least three times a day if i could. I know it is hard to do if you work. But puppies are burning up what they eat and need the extra food to help them keep going.

Will Fast for Beer
Legend has it that during Lent, Munich's Paulaner monks fasted by drawing all of their nourishment from doppelbock. This sounds like an 18th century version of Supersize Me, except that the monks partook of a better product.
How tough was such a diet? Beer blogger J. Wilson intends to find out. He's teamed up with Eric Sorensen, head brewer at Rock Bottom-Des Moines, to collaborate on a commercial-scale batch of his bock recipe. It's called Illuminator Doppelbock, and checks in at 6.67% alcohol by volume and 288 calories per 12-ounce serving.
Wilson's beer-only fast begins on Ash Wednesday, March 9, and runs through Holy Saturday, April 23. To get him through the penitential season, Wilson will call on the services of a doctor and a spiritual advisor. And, hopefully, a designated driver.
1,701 Breweries…and Counting!
According to the Paul Gatza of the Brewers Association, there are 1,701 operating breweries in the United States, a nine-percent increase over a year ago. The nation's brewery count is higher today than in any year since 1905. Gatza adds that there is a much wider variety of beer styles now than there was a century ago, and believes that the quality of today's beer is better as well.
American Craft Beer Week
Circle May 16 through 22 on your calendar. Those are the dates for the sixth, and biggest-ever, American Craft Beer Week. The event, described as "The Mother of All Beer Weeks," provides a platform for craft breweries to salute their supporters and form a connection with their communities. Last year's ACBW attracted 341 breweries that hosted 621 events at multiple retailers in 45 states, and the Brewers Association expects an even bigger celebration this year.
Check out the lineup of events on the ABCW website.
And check out the Brewers Association's video. It's free, but you have to provide your own beer and snacks.
The Friday Mash (Float Like a Butterfly Edition)
On this day in 1964, 22-year-old boxer Cassius Clay scored a victory by TKO over heavyweight champion Sonny Liston. Clay, who later that year changed his name to Muhammad Ali, became one of the greatest legends in the history of sports–and one of the few to be recognized the world over.
Being a devout Muslim, Ali abstains from alcohol. However, Ludwig has granted you permission to toast "The Greatest" with a brew.
And now…The Mash!
We begin in Boulder, Colorado, where the local school district offers a course in beer appreciation. It's led by a veteran of Colorado's craft beer industry.
Spring training is around the corner, and writer Charlie Vascellaro tells you where to find good beer near Cactus League ballparks. He also explains why baseball is responsible for Bell's beer's availabIlity in the Grand Canyon State.
The Harp, a pub located in Covent Garden, London, was named CAMRA's National Pub of the Year.
Lights, camera, action! Draft magazine chooses ten actors who could play leading brewers.
Green beer? Not the kind served on St. Patrick's Day, but the kind made in eco-friendly breweries in Calgary, Alberta.
Now that craft beer is making inroads in Ireland, can proper beer festivals be far behind? The Dublin-based Beer Nut reports on the inaugural Winter & Cask Ale Festival, held earlier this month in Cork.
Finally, if you're going to Mardi Gras, Jeremy Labadie of BestOfNewOrleans.com has a long list of establishments that serve good beer in the Crescent City.
Beer Cities: The Magnificent Seven
Esquire magazine weighs in with its choice of America's seven best beer cities. Like many other such lists, this one is guaranteed to stir up controversy. The magazine's picks are Chicago, Denver, New York, Philadelphia, Portland (OR), St. Louis, and San Diego. Which leaves out an awful lot of cities, including these: Asheville, Atlanta, Baltimore, Boston, San Francisco, Seattle, and Washington.
Chicago: "City on the Drink"
Chicago is famous for both its politics and its bar culture. As you might expect, the two are connected, but hold that thought for a moment.
Bill Savage, a professor at Northwestern University, who also serves as Thursday night bartender at Cunneen's on Devon, has written a book entitled "City On The Drink: Work, Ethnicity, And Bar Culture In Chicago." Bryan Simpson of The A.V. Club sat down with Professor Savage, who explained that before Prohibition, thousands of immigrants worked in factories, steel mills, or the stockyards. After work, they went to bars populated by their ethnic group; the bar was "part of the process of assimilation and acculturation, but also of maintaining an ethnic immigrant identity."
Nowadays, however, taverns have fallen out of favor with city officials, who favor establishments that serve food over those who specialize in alcohol. Which brings us back to the Lager Beer Riots of 1855. Mayor Levi Boone, who was elected on an anti-immigrant platform, jacked up the price of a liquor license by 500 percent and enforced a city ordinance against drinking on Sundays. The result was a confrontation between the police and beer-loving German and Irish immigrants. That was followed by political organizing, which resulted in Mayor Boone's defeat and, more importantly, the beginning of political activism along ethnic lines in the Windy City.
An Abandoned Brewery Tour?
Being from the Detroit area, we're all too familiar with abandoned buildings, factories in particular. In fact, some consider these derelict structures an art form. We mention this because NileGuide.com's Rachel Greenberg recently contributed an article (with photos) about seven abandoned breweries that are "open" for exploration.
The seven are Dixie Brewing, New Orleans; Stella Artois, Leuven, Belgium; Eylenbosch, Schepdaal, Belgium; Barenquell-Brauerei, Berlin; Hamm's, St. Paul; Iron City, Pittsburgh; and Pfeiffer (where else?), Detroit.
Needless to say, they don't offer guided tours, let alone beer samples. Still, you should make arrangements ahead of time. These breweries are private property, and a visit could prove hazardous.
Michigan: The Great Beer State
For years, Michigan has suffered from a terrible economy, with high unemployment and a list of bankruptcies headed by General Motors. Despite all that, the craft brewing industry keeps growing. The Great Lake State now ranks fifth nationally in the number of breweries, with more than 80 in operation and several more about to open. Craft beer has found its way into bars and grocery stores, and distributors have become more willing to handle it.
Many of the leading craft breweries have ambitious expansion plans. Perhaps the most impressive story of all is that of Grand Rapids' Founders Brewing Company. When we visited the brewery in 2005 for our Michigan Breweries book, its production was in the range of 4,000 barrels a year. This year, Founders expects to produce more than times that amount; and is facility could someday be turning out 150,000 barrels a year–a few thousand shy of the Bell's Brewery, which has ranked number one in production for many years.
Craft beer accounts for 4 percent of the Michigan market, a considerably smaller market share than in California, Colorado, Oregon, and Washington, the only four states ahead of it in the number of breweries. Which means there's plenty of room for more breweries and further expansion.
Does 8 Equal 5? Discuss.
The way the Oakland A's have been playing, fans need a couple of large beers to get them through the game. But there's a problem: the $8 large cup of beer sold at Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum holds only slightly more beer than the $5 cup. See for yourself:
Getting #slizzerd
During the last few days, we've seen a number of Twitter tweets with the hashtag #gettngslizzerd, and wondered what that was all about. Here's the story: A woman who handles social media for the Red Cross mistakenly tweeted this on her work account: "Ryan found two more 4 bottle packs of Dogfish Head's Midas Touch beer…when we drink we do it right #gettngslizzerd."
What could have been a major embarrassment turned into great publicity for both the Red Cross and Dogfish Head. The brewery re-tweeted the #gettngslizzerd tweet to its followers, some of whom directed donations to the Red Cross; bars offered to buy pints of Dogfish for customers who could show they'd donated blood; and HootSuite, which the Red Cross twitterer had used to send out her tweet, pledged a donation of its own.

But if you are like me which I assume you are because you already heat with wood, the work you have to put into it is worth it.
Now I have found my stove runs best using split 18" or so wood. You can put full logs into it, however, I found I use less wood by burning split. I fill it two to four times a day, depending. I never fill it completely full, I only fill the front half of the burn box and I won't always fill it to the top, just a few logs or so. Again this comes down to experimenting with wood usage. I have found I use less wood filling it more times a day, than stuffing it and filling it once a day.
Wood usage also comes down to how cold it is outside. When it dips down to the single digits it defiantly burns more wood than does when its warmer. I heat the hot water, a 3800 sq house, and a 1400 sq shop. I also have a pool heater hooked to it to use in the summer. Any questions feel free to ask, and yes I would buy a central boiler again.
How many cords of wood would you say that you have been using on an average year?
I looked at doing this some time ago, but don't have close access to a good supply of wood. We are planning on purchasing land and building in the future and I would like to have some wooded acreage and utilize a Wood Boiler.

I cannot imagine that apple would even want Jailbreaking to really be illegal on their devices. I think most of the Jailbreaking community might not want an idevice without a jb. Personally, using a stock iPhone/iPad for me sucks. I just see Apple losing a hell of a lot of revenue from losing the jailbreak community. And they'd lose on a crap load of ideas to eventually integrate into their iOS. Making it illegal is a huge mistake for Apple.
Ya boy!!!

The goalkeeper praised the Bianconeri's performance versus Lazio, which Stephan Lichtsteiner says was made sweeter by being at the Stadio Olimpico
Antonio Conte's men had failed to win once in pre-season but the Scudetto winners rocketed to top form against last season's Coppa Italia champions, which left the Italy shot-stopper praising his team-mates and his coach.
"It was my fifth Supercoppa Italiana. I'm a pentacampeon!" the 35-year-old told Rai Sport.
"Juventus showed themselves and that's usually the way for big teams and big players - we aren't seen in friendlies in America or China. We make our mark when it counts.
"Conte's attitude on the touchline is crucial for us and a large amount of the credit for these triumphs go to him, but also a bit to us.
"This is the first game this team have been able to celebrate with our fans in a one-off match. The Coppa Italia went badly and the [previous] Supercoppa game was in China, so it was great to be in Italy at last."
Stephan Lichtsteiner, a former Biancocolesti star, was equally delighted with Juve's victory ahead of the start of the Serie A season, which he says was made even better by winning at the Stadio Olimpico.
"It's a great night for Juventus, as to win 4-0 in their home is remarkable," the wing-back said. "I had three splendid years at Lazio, we won two trophies but now I am a Juventino.
"Antonio Conte has always shouted at me! I need a coach who shouts and always demands more, as it brings the best out of me."

Less Bang For The Big Guns
In late January, the U.S. Air Force had some bad news for Lockheed Martin Corp. (LMT ): The world's largest defense contractor would earn no profits in 2004 or 2005 on a satellite system it is building to provide early warning of missile launches. Because of the skyrocketing cost, from $1.8 billion to $5.6 billion, of the Space-Based Infrared Systems-High program, $10 million in fees are being deferred. The Pentagon will cover the overruns, but the Bethesda (Md.) company's profits, pegged to the original price, remain capped at $200 million through 2011. That's a 3.6% margin at best and not much lower than the 5.6% overall margin Lockheed made in 2004 -- $2 billion in profits on $35.5 billion in sales.
Nearly 1,000 miles to the west, margins are considerably more lush at $3 billion Rockwell Collins Inc. (COL ) The Cedar Rapids (Iowa) maker of aviation electronics sticks to safer jobs such as the $600 million upgrade of the Air Force's KC-135 refueling tanker. Rockwell is replacing navigation and communications gear on the aging planes, often with off-the-shelf products such as weather radar that it also sells for commercial aircraft. While the company won't disclose margins on individual programs, execs say its tanker deal is typical of its defense jobs, where profit margins exceed 18%.
To the public, all military contractors are alike: big, politically connected, and fabulously profitable. But as Lockheed and Rockwell demonstrate, there's a split in the industry. Not-yet-published data compiled by the Center for Strategic & International Studies and obtained by BusinessWeek show that suppliers have higher profits as a percentage of sales than the titans. From the Reagan buildup in the 1980s through the Bush surge in 2004, prime contractors averaged 6.3% profit margins, vs. 8.5% for subcontractors.
Wall Street tolerated the primes' record for much of that period, with value funds treating them like utilities -- steady income producers -- while the zippier suppliers show up in growth funds. "The [primes'] cash flow is enormous," notes Frank C. Lanza, CEO of supplier L-3 Communications Holdings Inc. "[And] they have no risk" because costs are reimbursable. But with defense procurement slowing, investors may get wary. "I have negative ratings on most of the large, integrated defense contractors," says Robert Friedman, an analyst at Standard & Poor's.
Despite their enormous political clout, such household names as Boeing (BA ), General Dynamics (GD ), and Northrop Grumman (NOC ) are under Washington's microscope and have to be content with microscopic margins. High margins "raise political red flags," says John Montgomery, managing director of Montgomery Brothers Inc., a Washington investment-management firm.
Suppliers -- and their richer profits -- fly under Washington's radar. They can spread development costs across commercial and military sales. Subcontractors are "a lot more commercial, a lot more responsive, and a lot more efficient," says Gordon Adams, a defense expert at George Washington University. That's one reason for the 136% jump in Rockwell's shares since Jan. 1, 2002, which dwarfs the 34% rise for Standard & Poor's Aerospace Index. The suppliers also are merging to gain more clout in negotiations with the big guns: The number of middle-market mergers rose 33.8% in 2004 and is climbing at a 63.4% annualized clip, according to Jeffries Quarterdeck, a unit of Jeffries Group Inc.
The diverging fortunes of Lockheed and Rockwell show how the industry has evolved. For the primes, new contracts to build planes and ships are scarce these days. So when one goes out for bid, "you've got to win it," says an executive familiar with Lockheed Martin's thinking. That forces companies to lowball their bids. With good performance, a prime contractor can collect fees of up to 14% of costs -- but those are calculated on the initial bid, and margins drop as costs inevitably rise. And those hard-won contracts seldom lead to the long and profitable production runs promised. Lockheed Martin was supposed to build nearly 800 F/A-22 Raptors, for example, but the order now is well below 200.
Subcontractors, in contrast, get paid a fixed price. "Any efficiencies you get to keep," says Rockwell Collins CEO Clayton M. Jones. Fewer contracts now impose special military specifications, which produced those infamous $600 toilet seats. So Rockwell Collins can use the same production lines as it splits its business evenly between government and commercial work and between domestic and international markets. Suppliers also enjoy healthy sales in upgrades and parts.
To remedy their sluggish image, woo investors, and shift risk, the primes want to jack up profits while shrinking the capital they commit. Lockheed Martin boosted return on invested capital from 6.1% in 2002 to 11.9% in 2004, largely by cutting debt. And in a Jan. 13 internal memo, Lockheed Martin Chief Financial Officer Christopher E. Kubasik told execs that capital should be invested only as a last resort. Such strategies could spark a struggle between the primes and subs over who foots the investment tab, since the goal for both is to earn more money with lower capital outlays.
The Pentagon is helping this push by the primes by hiring them to serve as "lead systems integrators" (LSIS) for defense programs. The idea: let contractors use their expertise to buy rather than build components and stitch together complex weapon systems. The prime contractor mostly sells brainpower, while suppliers make the heavy investments. For the LSI, "a 6% margin on zero investment is a heck of a good return," says Daniel J. Murphy Jr., CEO of Alliant Techsystems Inc. (ATK ) in Edina, Minn., a maker of munitions and propulsion systems.
The LSI approach explains how Lockheed Martin -- which doesn't own a shipyard -- can vie for lead contractor on the Navy's new shallow-water ship. And why Boeing, which doesn't build tanks, is the lead on the Army's $100 billion-plus Future Combat System, a collection of combat vehicles linked by a high-tech network. But there's growing disenchantment with the LSI idea. The Army has restructured the Future Combat System to cope with technical and cost woes. "This is not regarded as a success," says one Pentagon insider.
While the primes want to emphasize their improved return on investment, the subs are beating them at that game, too, according to the CSIS data. And they're not likely to let the primes drag down their margins. All of this raises the question of who will make the investments needed to preserve the nation's defense industrial base. Until that question is answered, the smart money is riding on the little guys.

2007 Mercedes-Benz SLK 280
The SLK280 and SLK350 use advanced engine technology that's characterized by four valves per cylinder and variable valve timing, which requires separate camshafts for the intake and exhaust valves. Whether it's the 3.0- or 3.5-liter version, the twin-cam V6 develops more than 80 percent of its maximum torque at only 1,500 rpm. While variable valve timing gets much of the credit for the engine's unusually broad torque curve, a two-stage intake manifold plays a key role as well. Other high-tech engine features include tumble flaps that increase gas mileage by creating additional turbulence in the intake passages at part throttle.The High-Tech V6 from Start to Finish

Soccer Travels to Xavier for NCAA Tourney Rematch
Sept. 13, 2013
LEXINGTON, Ky. -- In a rematch of the 2012 NCAA Tournament first round matchup in Lexington, the Kentucky men's soccer team will travel to face Xavier on Saturday at 7 p.m. ET.

Good it's fixed. Any idea what plug/wires were broken? To get an understanding of what was happening.
Good it's fixed. Any idea what plug/wires were broken? To get an understanding of what was happening.
Sounds like the wiring to the refrigeration pressure switch behind the o/s headlight may well have been damaged in your previous accident, this would cause the fan to come on full speed, the coolant circuit will have been showing at >18bar so no need for A/C compressor but lots of need for the fan, hence it running all the time.
gildersol (12-10-2009)
ive got the exact same problems this gent had. I bought the car at a trade price and forfitted the warranty - i never normally claim - sods law.
When i got it, the dealer fitted a brand new radiator for me but didnt bleed it properly. upon collecting the car, we bled it and all was fine for a few weeks. one night, i saw water dripping from the front of it and it turned out the expansion tank had a pin hole prick it in which water leaked out of when itgot hot. new expansion tank fitted and new water pump too - common fault so i thought id kill it whilst i was there.
Now the fan turns on staright away at full bore and turns off when i turn the car off. Also, when i first turn the car on, the large cylinder on the left hand side just behind and next to the radiator comes on very loudly for 5 minutes or so and then quiets down. the needle is always in the middle and there are no warning lights on. coolant level is at the max mark.
It has had a repair to the passanger wing (very bad filler and spray job - he has had the radiator off and replaced the indicatos with clear lenses so i think he smashed the passanger side one) and when the dealer ftted the radiator, he didnt even put the bulb back in the light propely. could i have the same wiring fault? what does it look like?
Sorry for the essay, just trying to be thorough.
Thank You All .
