#1 Soldiers and students to fill empty seats07-29-2012, 08:01 PM
By Vanessa Kortekaas, Roger Blitz and Ben Fenton
Olympic organisers scrambled to halt a public backlash over the sight of empty seats at competition venues, recruiting an army of soldiers and students to fill the voids and upgrading spectators with cheaper tickets.
Banks of unused seats at swimming, gymnastics and tennis during the first two days of competition have caused anger because of the difficulty many people had securing tickets in public ballots held by the London organising committee (Locog).
The seats are in areas reserved for members of the Olympic family, such as sports federations, national teams and the International Olympic Committee, as well as sponsors and the media.
Lord Coe, chairman of Locog, argued that many venues were full, and said it was not uncommon in the first few days of an Olympics to have empty seats as accredited ticket-holders worked out their daily schedules.
Its certainly not going to be an issue right through the games, he said.
The issue is galling for Lord Coe because Locog confidently predicted after the 2008 Olympics that Beijings similar problems with empty seats would not be repeated.
Ticketing has long been a bugbear for organisers. The ballot of 6.6m tickets to the general public was repeatedly criticised as being unfair and hampered by technical problems. There has been resentment in the host country that 2.2m tickets were reserved for the Olympic family and sponsors.
Having called on the military to bail it out of its venue security fiasco, Locog again turned to soldiers to help with its latest problem. Scores of off-duty soldiers took up empty seats in the gymnastics arena on Sunday. Locog said unused seats would also be given to student volunteers working at the games.
Staff at the North Greenwich arena, where 40 per cent of the 15,500 seats are reserved for accredited personnel, said they had permission to sell up to 300 seats per session and also upgrade people in cheaper seats. Locog said some tickets were being sold online to the British public.

1 A prophecy concerning Nineveh. The book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite.
2 The Lord is a jealous and avenging God;
the Lord takes vengeance and is filled with wrath.
The Lord takes vengeance on his foes
and vents his wrath against his enemies.
3 The Lord is slow to anger but great in power;
the Lord will not leave the guilty unpunished.
His way is in the whirlwind and the storm,
and clouds are the dust of his feet.
4 He rebukes the sea and dries it up;
he makes all the rivers run dry.
Bashan and Carmel wither
and the blossoms of Lebanon fade.
5 The mountains quake before him
and the hills melt away.
The earth trembles at his presence,
the world and all who live in it.
6 Who can withstand his indignation?
Who can endure his fierce anger?
His wrath is poured out like fire;
the rocks are shattered before him.
7 The Lord is good,
a refuge in times of trouble.
He cares for those who trust in him,
8 but with an overwhelming flood
he will make an end of Nineveh;
he will pursue his foes into the realm of darkness.
9 Whatever they plot against the Lord
he will bring[a] to an end;
trouble will not come a second time.
10 They will be entangled among thorns
and drunk from their wine;
they will be consumed like dry stubble.[b]
11 From you, Nineveh, has one come forth
who plots evil against the Lord
and devises wicked plans.
12 This is what the Lord says:
"Although they have allies and are numerous,
they will be destroyed and pass away.
Although I have afflicted you, Judah,
I will afflict you no more.
13 Now I will break their yoke from your neck
and tear your shackles away."
14 The Lord has given a command concerning you, Nineveh:
"You will have no descendants to bear your name.
I will destroy the images and idols
that are in the temple of your gods.
I will prepare your grave,
for you are vile."
15 Look, there on the mountains,
the feet of one who brings good news,
who proclaims peace!
Celebrate your festivals, Judah,
and fulfill your vows.
No more will the wicked invade you;
they will be completely destroyed.[c]
2 [d]An attacker advances against you, Nineveh.
Guard the fortress,
watch the road,
brace yourselves,
marshal all your strength!
2 The Lord will restore the splendor of Jacob
like the splendor of Israel,
though destroyers have laid them waste
and have ruined their vines.
3 The shields of the soldiers are red;
the warriors are clad in scarlet.
The metal on the chariots flashes
on the day they are made ready;
the spears of juniper are brandished.[e]
4 The chariots storm through the streets,
rushing back and forth through the squares.
They look like flaming torches;
they dart about like lightning.
5 Nineveh summons her picked troops,
yet they stumble on their way.
They dash to the city wall;
the protective shield is put in place.
6 The river gates are thrown open
and the palace collapses.
7 It is decreed[f] that Nineveh
be exiled and carried away.
Her female slaves moan like doves
and beat on their breasts.
8 Nineveh is like a pool
whose water is draining away.
"Stop! Stop!" they cry,
but no one turns back.
9 Plunder the silver!
Plunder the gold!
The supply is endless,
the wealth from all its treasures!
10 She is pillaged, plundered, stripped!
Hearts melt, knees give way,
bodies tremble, every face grows pale.
11 Where now is the lions' den,
the place where they fed their young,
where the lion and lioness went,
and the cubs, with nothing to fear?
12 The lion killed enough for his cubs
and strangled the prey for his mate,
filling his lairs with the kill
and his dens with the prey.
13 "I am against you,"
declares the Lord Almighty.
"I will burn up your chariots in smoke,
and the sword will devour your young lions.
I will leave you no prey on the earth.
The voices of your messengers
will no longer be heard."
3 Woe to the city of blood,
full of lies,
full of plunder,
never without victims!
2 The crack of whips,
the clatter of wheels,
galloping horses
and jolting chariots!
3 Charging cavalry,
flashing swords
and glittering spears!
Many casualties,
piles of dead,
bodies without number,
people stumbling over the corpses—
4 all because of the wanton lust of a prostitute,
alluring, the mistress of sorceries,
who enslaved nations by her prostitution
and peoples by her witchcraft.
5 "I am against you," declares the Lord Almighty.
"I will lift your skirts over your face.
I will show the nations your nakedness
and the kingdoms your shame.
6 I will pelt you with filth,
I will treat you with contempt
and make you a spectacle.
7 All who see you will flee from you and say,
'Nineveh is in ruins—who will mourn for her?'
Where can I find anyone to comfort you?"
8 Are you better than Thebes,
situated on the Nile,
with water around her?
The river was her defense,
the waters her wall.
9 Cush[g] and Egypt were her boundless strength;
Put and Libya were among her allies.
10 Yet she was taken captive
and went into exile.
Her infants were dashed to pieces
at every street corner.
Lots were cast for her nobles,
and all her great men were put in chains.
11 You too will become drunk;
you will go into hiding
and seek refuge from the enemy.
12 All your fortresses are like fig trees
with their first ripe fruit;
when they are shaken,
the figs fall into the mouth of the eater.
13 Look at your troops—
they are all weaklings.
The gates of your land
are wide open to your enemies;
fire has consumed the bars of your gates.
14 Draw water for the siege,
strengthen your defenses!
Work the clay,
tread the mortar,
repair the brickwork!
15 There the fire will consume you;
the sword will cut you down—
they will devour you like a swarm of locusts.
Multiply like grasshoppers,
multiply like locusts!
16 You have increased the number of your merchants
till they are more numerous than the stars in the sky,
but like locusts they strip the land
and then fly away.
17 Your guards are like locusts,
your officials like swarms of locusts
that settle in the walls on a cold day—
but when the sun appears they fly away,
and no one knows where.
18 King of Assyria, your shepherds[h] slumber;
your nobles lie down to rest.
Your people are scattered on the mountains
with no one to gather them.
19 Nothing can heal you;
your wound is fatal.
All who hear the news about you
clap their hands at your fall,
for who has not felt
your endless cruelty?
14 Then I looked, and there before me was the Lamb, standing on Mount Zion, and with him 144,000 who had his name and his Father's name written on their foreheads. 2 And I heard a sound from heaven like the roar of rushing waters and like a loud peal of thunder. The sound I heard was like that of harpists playing their harps. 3 And they sang a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders. No one could learn the song except the 144,000 who had been redeemed from the earth. 4 These are those who did not defile themselves with women, for they remained virgins. They follow the Lamb wherever he goes. They were purchased from among mankind and offered as firstfruits to God and the Lamb. 5 No lie was found in their mouths; they are blameless.
6 Then I saw another angel flying in midair, and he had the eternal gospel to proclaim to those who live on the earth—to every nation, tribe, language and people. 7 He said in a loud voice, "Fear God and give him glory, because the hour of his judgment has come. Worship him who made the heavens, the earth, the sea and the springs of water."
8 A second angel followed and said, "'Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great,'[a] which made all the nations drink the maddening wine of her adulteries."
9 A third angel followed them and said in a loud voice: "If anyone worships the beast and its image and receives its mark on their forehead or on their hand, 10 they, too, will drink the wine of God's fury, which has been poured full strength into the cup of his wrath. They will be tormented with burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the Lamb. 11 And the smoke of their torment will rise for ever and ever. There will be no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and its image, or for anyone who receives the mark of its name." 12 This calls for patient endurance on the part of the people of God who keep his commands and remain faithful to Jesus.
13 Then I heard a voice from heaven say, "Write this: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on."
"Yes," says the Spirit, "they will rest from their labor, for their deeds will follow them."
14 I looked, and there before me was a white cloud, and seated on the cloud was one like a son of man[b] with a crown of gold on his head and a sharp sickle in his hand. 15 Then another angel came out of the temple and called in a loud voice to him who was sitting on the cloud, "Take your sickle and reap, because the time to reap has come, for the harvest of the earth is ripe." 16 So he who was seated on the cloud swung his sickle over the earth, and the earth was harvested.
17 Another angel came out of the temple in heaven, and he too had a sharp sickle. 18 Still another angel, who had charge of the fire, came from the altar and called in a loud voice to him who had the sharp sickle, "Take your sharp sickle and gather the clusters of grapes from the earth's vine, because its grapes are ripe." 19 The angel swung his sickle on the earth, gathered its grapes and threw them into the great winepress of God's wrath. 20 They were trampled in the winepress outside the city, and blood flowed out of the press, rising as high as the horses' bridles for a distance of 1,600 stadia.[c]

The lights are on
You like shooters because you like the sense of power they give you. Few games are as skilled at making you feel like a competent warrior as Infinity Ward's Call of Duty series. Every bullet has a story. Take a moment and tell us a few of yours.
so... Zombies.
Check out my blogs!
Do you Really love lamp?
I was never very good at zombies in Call of Duty, but I guess I'll start this thread going.
As a starter weapon, do you prefer the Olympia or M14? I prefer the M14, because reloading every 2 shots is very inconvenient.
On solo Revive, but with people M14, only use it when my pistol empty's or I get screwed.
dude i love nazi zombies i got to level 39 by myself it is so awesome
does any one know zombie glithces tell me on my page
oh and what is the best gun
@SuperSonic -- There are actually a few glitches on the map 'Five'. The first one is getting on a table in the main room you start in..
The second one is getting over a barrier in the first basement level..
Gah! Don't tell him the gamebreaking glitches that'll destroy the leaderboards!
the first glitch is patched- you bounce off the wooden boards if you try to do it.
I usually don't buy the m14 or olympia unless i run out of pistol ammo. my group generally buys the first room before round 5 (generally when the dogs come) and i'll buy the spray-tastic MPL.
what guns has everyone pack-a-punched?
I've done the MP40- which becomes the afterburner-which isn't too good
and the MP5- which becomes some weird name with a good bit of numbers-not good either.
Nobody's been on this thread in awhile. Bump!
What does everyone think of Ascension? I think it's better than Five, personally.
I didn't buy the map pack, so I couldn't say.
Personaly, I like Ascension over "FIVE" but not Kino. Kino is just the best map out of the black ops maps definitley. In WAW I like der reise the best because its the only one where you can upgrade and its fun. I cant wait till the next map pack comes out because then everyone will try to figure it out and then there will be a glitch that someone finds and theyll get to like level fifty and then theyll be at the top of the leaderboards. My favorite gun is probably the RPK because it has a lot of ammo and can mow down a lot of zombies at once. I think its sometimes better to be by your self because then you don;t have to worry about other people getting in your way. I also like the HK21.
Anyone who gets past 20 solo is doing some heavy circling... *spins a finger in the air* woohoo.
Anyone wanna play zombies with me? im on ps3 PM my GIO and tell me your username

No brain, no gain
Vancouver Whitecaps Jay DeMerit heads the ball against the Houston Dynamo during the first half of their MLS soccer game in Vancouver June 10, 2012. REUTERS/Ben Nelms
Jay DeMerit doesn't just use his head on the soccer pitch. The veteran defender with Major League Soccer's Vancouver Whitecaps also exercises some cranial fortitude when he's working out. That is, he knows the critical difference between training hard and training smart. And the older DeMerit gets, the smarter he trains.
"I'm 33. I don't need to be running sprints with the 20-year-olds every day because that's going to make my body break down," he tells QMI Agency in a phone interview from Vancouver.
"I just need to make sure I'm doing the right maintenance on my body to make sure I'm on the field every day, but not necessarily going as hard because I don't necessarily need that at this time. I just need to make sure I'm out there and competing, and the rest takes care of itself." It may sound cliche, but DeMerit says the key to keeping fit is "knowing your body" — the good, the bad and the ugly.
"Over a 10-year (pro) career, you develop certain problem areas. For me, it's my hips and groin," explains the native of Green Bay, Wisc. "It's just knowing your body and recognizing when maybe you've worked too hard and maybe you need to take the foot off the pedal a little bit and not train as hard the next day because you feel like you're going to break down."
The Whitecaps' team captain, a solid 185 pounds at six-foot-one, is currently preparing for his third season in Vancouver, which officially begins March 2.
Preseason training kicked off Jan. 20, starting with two-a-days for the first couple weeks: skill work in the mornings and fitness training in the afternoons.
The preseason afternoon sessions can be rather hellish.
"It's literally the worst day in the world," laughs DeMerit. "You do a lot of sprints, a lot of interval training, where you're doing long periods of workouts but with short bursts — 30 seconds on, 30 seconds off — for a half-hour period because soccer is a lot of that type of fitness that you're going to need through a whole 90-minute game."
When the member of the U.S. national team lifts weights, he opts for relatively light weights and high reps. "I don't need to get stronger. I just need to stay fit," he notes. "We're trying to produce endurance muscles, not just short-burst muscles." In the offseason, DeMerit has been known to train with his fiancee, Olympic ski cross gold medallist Ashleigh McIvor.
The sports power couple recently signed on as ambassadors for rara.com, a new music streaming service.
The site, which boasts millions of songs, features a 20-track playlist compiled by the fitness-conscious lovebirds. As DeMerit explains, he often uses music to ratchet up his workout intensity. "I went for a jog the other day and forgot my headphones, and it was the most boring 25-minute run I've ever had in my life," he adds.
"Normally, I have my headphones in. It's amazing how a 30-minute workout seems like nothing after listening to music. But when you're in that pain threshold of trying to work out and you don't have anything to push you into that next level, it does make it harder.
"It depends on everyone's individual choice of what music takes them to that intensity level. For us, it's a place we need to be at in order to be our best."
So smart training, it would seem, also entails remembering to bring headphones.

Washington University School of Medicine and its affiliated hospitals — Barnes-Jewish Hospital and St. Louis Children's Hospital — are members of Washington University Medical Center, one of the country's foremost academic medical centers.
Washington University School of Medicine
That principle remains in effect today, with the recognition that a good doctor must be a good scientist as well as a compassionate and understanding human being. The school remains a leading institution of clinical care, education and research, ranked annually among the top medical schools in the nation by U.S. News & World Report.
Barnes-Jewish Hospital
Barnes-Jewish Hospital, a 259-licensed-bed patient care, teaching and research facility, is the largest hospital in the St. Louis area. Its medical staff is composed exclusively of members of the faculty of Washington University School of Medicine. Consistently listed among America's elite medical centers in U.S. News & World Report's list of "America's Best Hospitals," BJH has a premier reputation in patient care, medical education, research and community service.
The hospital is a member of BJC HealthCare, the largest academically linked full-spectrum health system in the country. BJC provides community-based and academic health care services at more than 100 inpatient and ambulatory care sites throughout Missouri and southern Illinois.
BJH and the medical school are committed to the management of all aspects of liver disease, including transplantation. In August 1985, the hospital began what was then the 16th liver transplant program in the world. In 1996, Washington University transplant surgeons performed the first adult-to-adult living donor liver transplant in the United States. In total, more than 750 adult liver transplants have been performed.
BJH and Washington University have always been leaders in the treatment of patients with kidney failure, taking a team approach that includes nephrologists, surgeons, transplant surgeons and nurse coordinators.
The first kidney transplant was performed in 1963, and the first live donor transplant was performed in 1965. In 1968, the hospital became one of the first in the nation to offer hemodialysis and, in 1979, was the third to make available continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). The first living-unrelated donor kidney transplant was performed in 1983. Since the program's inception, surgeons have performed more than 3,000 adult kidney transplants.
St. Louis Children's Hospital
More than 220 children have received liver transplants at SLCH for liver diseases and congenital defects, most commonly biliary atresia, a bile duct abnormality. Other metabolic disorders that were once fatal can now be corrected through liver transplantation. Refinements in candidate selection and surgical techniques have led to improved outcomes, with length of stay for liver transplant patients dropping from 35 days to less than half that in recent years. Excellent long-term survival and quality of life is achieved for the majority of patients, and one-, three- and five-year survival rates are world-standard.
Surgeons at the medical school have the skill and experience to reduce larger livers for use in infants. In 1996, they performed St. Louis' first split-liver transplant by dividing a donor liver between two recipients.
SLCH was a pioneer in pediatric kidney transplantation, performing its first such operation in 1964. Washington University physicians stress early intervention to minimize complications, and they have successful experience with transplant patients under one year of age.
A multidisciplinary approach characterizes the SLCH kidney transplant program, involving representatives from nephrology, infectious disease, endocrinology, psychology and social services, with oversight by a transplant coordinator.

Qualcomm proffers first smartbook platform
Smartphone spliced with netbook, see
Posted in Personal Tech, 11th November 2009 14:13 GMT
At the Computek show in Taiwan six months ago, Qualcomm and Freescale coined a new phrase, 'smartbook', to describe a mobile internet device that would come somewhere between a smartphone and a netbook. Now the chip giant says it will show its first commercial design at its analyst day to be held in New York on Thursday.
Qualcomm expects the smartbook to be a new product category, combining low power and instant start-up with ultra-mobility (embedded 3G or 4G, plus Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and GPS) and a rich browser interface.
Although such products will be logical targets for Intel's Atom processor as it drives down power consumption - and especially for the Intel/Nokia collaboration on Linux MIDs - for now the most vociferous support has come from the ARM-based processor community. ARM licensees like Qualcomm see the smartbook as a natural home as they push their processors upmarket from phones, but see the netbook still dominated by Atom and Windows.
More specialized devices like the Amazon Kindle ebook reader are already showing the sort of experience that a smartbook could deliver - 3G embedded, so no data contracts; innovative interfaces tailored to the user's preferred apps and behaviour; long battery life and fast boot-up. The Qualcomm platform would extend this to more broad-based usage and would be particularly geared to the growth in browser-based, 'cloud' apps and services.
Qualcomm did not reveal details of the design it will release this week, but said its key processor for this market, the 1GHz Snapdragon, is now included in 40 current or soon-to-be released devices, from 15 vendors. An early mover in smartbooks is expected to be Asustek, which demonstrated a prototype at Computek using Snapdragon, and Nokia is also working on a design in this area. Qualcomm expects functionality of other more specialized gadgets to be merged, over time, into a single smartbook - for instance, its recently announced mobile TV viewer.

Serena Williams and Novak Djokovic were in sparkling form as they booked their places in the fourth round at Wimbledon on Saturday, while Laura Robson came back from the brink of defeat to eventually win her third round tie.
Williams was going for her 600th career victory as she took on record-breaking Kimiko Date-Krumm in a bonus match on Centre Court.
Japanese Date-Krumm is the oldest woman to have made the third round at Wimbledon at 42 years old and the world number one is proving untouchable for players half her age at the moment.
The match was scheduled to be played on No.1 Court but light was a problem as it was nearly 8:30pm before they came out, so they were moved onto Centre to play under the roof and lights.
Williams was sensational and looked as though she is approaching her best, despatching Date-Krumm 6-2 6-0 in only 61 minutes.
Men's top seed Djokovic was also in fine form and hit just three unforced errors on the way to a straight sets defeat of Jeremy Chardy – the Frenchman couldn't do a lot to stop the Serb cruising to victory 6-3 6-1 6-1.
Djokovic's serve was purring and he dropped only four points on it to set up a fourth round meeting with the evergreen Tommy Haas, who beat Feliciano Lopez in four sets.
Fourth seed David Ferrer was pushed all the way by Alex Dolgopolov but eventually won through in five sets, while Juan Martin del Potro continued his impressive progress with a 7-5 7-6 6-0 win over Slovenia's Grega Zemlja.
Home fans at the All England Club were put through the ringer on Court Two as Britain's Laura Robson snatched victory from the jaws of defeat against New Zealand's Marina Erakovic.
The British number one looked lost early on as her opponent served brilliantly and countered Robson's big hitting with lots of smart play.
However, the nerves got to her in the end and her game collapsed as she was serving for the match, allowing Robson to take it to a decider.
Erakovic found her game again late in the third but by then it was too late as the home support helped Robson come through 1-6 7-5 6-4 winner.
As there is no play on the middle Sunday, tennis fans will have to wait until Monday for the fourth round matches, with Andy Murray the star attraction.

To the editor:
Anyone who has some ideas about the next four years, please stand up and go to the head of the row.
We are in a real pickle and a shaky spot. But should we be surprised? After all, the first four years were full of lies and empty promises, and lots of vacations during times when President Obama was needed the most.
After all, "when you speak to one, you must speak to ten." What a headache that would be.
Now we have no one to blame but the ones who voted that didn't educate themselves. I wonder if they are sorry. I am so sorry for my husband and grandchildren that now have to pick up the tab.
I think I was most honked off by a survey that was taken by phone before the actual voting was to take place where the recording asked, "Are you white, black, Hispanic or other?" I always answered with "other."
In these great United States of America, does it really matter?

Augusta, Ga. Augusta National is called the "cathedral of golf," and it sure sounded like one Thursday.
Gone were those roars that resonate along Amen Corner, as much a part of the Masters as the blazing colors of spring and the red numbers under par on the leaderboard. Then again, there were not a lot of birdies to cheer.
This was a day the Masters went mute.
"Strangely quiet," David Howell of England said.
It wasn't a total drag, even with Tiger Woods making bogey on the last two holes for a 73, or defending champion Phil Mickelson having to rally for a 76, his worst start at the Masters in 10 years.
Justin Rose, back at the Masters for the first time since he was a 36-hole leader three years ago, did remarkably well to keep bogeys off his card on his way to a 3-under 69, leaving him tied for the lead with Masters rookie Brett Wetterich. It was the highest score to lead the first round of the Masters in eight years, which also was the last time Augusta National was firm, fast and scary.
Only nine players managed to break par, the result of a course that has grown 500 yards and breezy, brittle conditions that kept even the best players in the world on the defensive from the opening tee shot to the final putt.
"I would have liked to have made a birdie," Dean Wilson said after a 73. "But when you look up and no one else is doing it, it gives me a boost. I didn't hear the roars Augusta National is famous for."
Howell and David Toms were at 70.
Toms complained last year that Masters rules were so strict that players feel as though they have to walk on egg shells. If that were the case Thursday, the sound might have been deafening. Add that Toms was in the final group, and it seemed as though he was squeezing in a late nine at the local municipal course.
"For the most part, it was a real calm day," he said.
The loudest cheers might have been for Arnold Palmer. He was back in the Masters after a two-year absence, this time to hit the ceremonial opening tee shot.
Lucky for him, he didn't have to hit another shot.
Because this sure didn't resemble the Masters of recent years.
"We wish for dry, firm, fast conditions, and the scoring average of about 76," Howell said. "Be careful what you wish for is the answer there. We all know this course is going to play really tough when it's dry and firm and fast. It's that beautiful mix between the most beautiful place in the world to play golf, and also the most difficult."
The only other players to break par were Rich Beem, Tim Clark, J.J. Henry, Zach Johnson and Augusta resident Vaughn Taylor at 71. The group at even-par 72 included Henrik Stenson and Davis Love III.
All of them had good shots to celebrate, but not many.
"I got a lucky bounce on the sixth where my tee shot kicked in to a foot, which made the crowd cheer a little bit," Stenson said.
Beem forgot to factor in the wind on the par-5 13th, which he said would have caused him to lay up. Instead, he hit 5-wood into about 20 feet and made the putt for eagle.
"I think it woke up a few people," he said.
A dozen players couldn't break 80. The average score was 76.187, the highest for a first round in four years.
"It's hard. And when you start playing defensively, it plays harder," Steve Stricker said after a 77. "It's one shot after another where you're up against it. You're nervous on every shot."
Rose, who hadn't played in five weeks while taking care of a sore back, put together the most remarkable round because it contained no bogeys. He hit a wedge to tap-in range at No. 3, holed a bunker shot on No. 5 and rolled in a 15-foot birdie from the fringe on No. 14.
"That's exciting to go bogey-free on any course on any day," Rose said. "But first round at Augusta on a day where obviously the scores are pretty high makes it a very pleasing round. Yeah, one that I'm very happy with, for sure."
Wetterich can't relate to any of this as an Augusta National rookie. His experience comes from practice rounds, especially one with south Florida neighbor Raymond Floyd, the 1976 Masters champion.
"I thought it was a good test of golf out there," Wetterich said. "To me, they don't have to do any changes."
For the longest time, it looked as though Woods might go through the day without a birdie. His best putts were for par - one was for bogey on the seventh hole - until he hit a sand wedge into 4 feet for birdie on the 13th, and reached the par-5 15th in two for another one. Suddenly, he was 1 under and starting to challenge the leaders.
Then came a tee shot in the trees on the 17th, and an approach into the bunker on the 18th, and the streak was alive - Woods has never broken 70 in the first round at the Masters, despite winning four of them.
"I threw away a good round of golf," Woods said.
Still, it wasn't hard to find some encouragement. Not many had a good round to throw away.
"You're not going to go low," Woods said. "Low is only 69 today. That's some pretty good playing."
Ernie Els opened with a double bogey, then took bogey on the par-5 second. He shot 42 on the front nine. U.S. Open champion Geoff Ogilvy was some 50 yards in front of the green on No. 2 when he hit wedge long into a bunker, then hit that shot back toward the fairway, finally pitched up to about 8 feet and three-putted for an 8. He also took a double bogey on the par-3 12th, but still managed a 75.
"You feel like the course is going to get you somewhere," Ben Crenshaw said after a 76. "It doesn't matter who you are."
It got Mickelson just about everywhere.
Bidding to become only the fourth repeat winner at the Masters, he was even par through three holes and, after missing the green on the par-3 fourth, chipped to 4 feet. But he missed that putt, and it spiraled out of control from there. A muffed chip on the fifth led to double bogey, and he dropped shots on each of the next two holes.
Mickelson shot 40 on the front, and it got worse before it got better. Birdies on the 15th and 16th, and scrambling pars on the final two holes put him at 76.
"Even par is going to be in the hunt tomorrow," he said. "If I can go out there and shoot a solid 68, I'm in contention."
He made it sound so simple. The course was anything but that on Thursday, and it doesn't figure to get any easier. Along with a dry forecast, the temperatures are supposed to get much cooler.
And if that's the case, the course will only get faster.
"The golf course is winning right now," Billy Mayfair said after a 76. "I expect it will probably win this week."

Harvard drama troupe honors Marion Cotillard
- Associated Press
- January 31, 2013 - 7:44 PM
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - Academy Award-winning actress Marion Cotillard (koh-tee-YAR') has taken home the pudding pot after being honored as woman of the year by Harvard's Hasty Pudding Theatricals.
Cotillard smiled, waved and caught a teddy bear from the crowd during a parade through Cambridge's Harvard Square on Thursday.
The procession was followed by a roast of the 37-year-old French actress at Hasty Pudding headquarters, during which Cotillard sang a song from "La Vie En Rose." Cotillard won a best actress Oscar for her portrayal of famed French singer Edith Piaf in that 2007 film.
Cotillard has appeared more recently in `'Inception" and `'The Dark Knight Rises."
Claire Danes was the woman of the year in 2012.
The awards are presented annually to performers who have made a lasting and impressive contribution to entertainment.

Former Frasier star Kelsey Grammer told TMZ on Tuesday that wind technology was the worst investment hes ever made.
Grammer told the tabloid that though his finances are good, he lost hundreds of thousands of dollars on a small wind investment.
Im OK, but I didnt make up for it. Its just one of those things thats just a straight loss, he said. Youd think it would be lucrative, but its not really a friendly environment for new technology, it really isnt.

text: Just wanted to make a proclamation to the whole world how much I love life! I am so blessed beyond anything I could have every imagined. It seems as if the windows of heaven are continually opening and pooring out more and more. Sometimes it is a wonder why, I definitely don't feel like I deserve any of these blessings. Especially that I have done anything at all for them. However, I am very grateful to heaven and my dearest Father for the regard and love. In a score of ways uncounted the world comes together in such a way for the benefit of all, but I recognize openly sometimes how much the cosmos seem to be just in line for me. My heart swells, my soul cries thanks. I have been recognized since I was young. Who knows what I am expected to do with these blessings or how exactly they are to be applied. I know Father will continue to clear the path before me and remove the stumblingblocks to which he is able. Everything always just falls into place. Individuals I can bless, and who can bless me are all about me. Indeed, it seems that the windows of heaven are open, thanks to tithing too. The Atonement is real, the power of Christ is real, the power of the Holy Ghost is ever present. It is we who must come in tune with these things. Life is amazing, what a privilege to come here and receive a body, learn faith, and gain experience! All thanks to Thee.

Yes, I do speak, write, and read English fluently. I understand all those bloated, big words you say and the insults you mutter in vague whispers under your breath that you assume I cannot understand or hear. My hijab may cover my hair, but it does not cover my brain or clog my ears. So feel free to use your hoity-toity, highfalutin talk with me (in fact, I know a few big words myself). You might be afraid of me, but what scares me is the ignorance some people have. On airplanes, people sitting in the seats around me look absolutely terrified out of their wits, as if they would rather jump out of the plane now than endure a flight with me in the same aircraft across the ocean. In elevators, they sneak little looks as they take notice my scarf and hope nothing explodes between the first and second floor. If you are going to stare, at least try not to get caught.
I am a normal 16 year old girl that enjoys a hilarious joke, lime sherbet, hanging out with friends, and a good debate about Twilight. I write and read for fun, and tackle the daily struggles of a high-school student. I play tennis, watch movies and go shopping. Even though I cover my hair, I enjoy trying new products and new styles on it. Swimming is no biggie. I just use a swim cap. I want to go to college, which I am already planning for. My mother went to college, too. In fact, college is where my dad and my mom met.
My father does not wear a turban, nor does he have a beard. No, he did not beat me or force me to wear the hijab. I am not oppressed and for the record, I am allowed out of the house. I do not have any brothers. We are a family of four women and our father loves us just the same and does not feel disappointed at all that he has no sons. My father is not a tyrannical radical and he respects my mother. He consults her opinion before he does a lot of things, such as which tie she thinks looks better on him or which watch he should buy. They cook food together, cheer while watching soccer games on TV and they like to watch comedy movies.
A common introduction Americans have with my religion is through bold, capital letters that stir panic about terrorists and conspiracies. If a picture can speak a thousand words, then the images of men in turbans with guns and wailing women in black only yell out loud at the reader. Captions with words like Islamic radical, terrorists, Jihad, and Muslim extremist further inform the reader about who is the bad guy. The article finishes off with disturbing details about who bombed whom. I will tell you who was bombed: Islam was bombed by Muslim terrorists.
I am not a terrorist, nor do I agree with what the terrorists are doing. If the terrorists claim they are Muslims, they are not because Islam forbids the killing of innocent people. Innocent people should not die. Do not be afraid of me; fear the people who want to kill others. I do not hate America; I love America. I was born in America, but I also enjoy my Egyptian and Turkish heritage. I cheer for both the Egyptian and American Olympic teams. I love both pizza and rice stuffed grape leaves. Truly, it is the best of both worlds. The same goes for my hijab.
My hijab does not put me behind in anything or bother me and keep me from wearing what I want. It gives me a way to be creative and further express myself. From sparkles and embellished paisley designs, to dots and flowers, I have scarves in every color and design imaginable. I can wrap three scarves together to create a unique look and there are many different ways to wrap the hijab. As well as receiving compliments from random strangers about my headwear, I have also received disdainful stares and not so pleasant gestures. Still, I continue to wear it with pride every day. For me, it is a fashion statement that my religion gave to me.
Some people may ask if I miss feeling beautiful and if I am sad because I am not allowed to have a boyfriend. What? Whoever said I miss feeling beautiful? I feel beautiful right now! When people talk to me while I wear the hijab, it is because they take me seriously and respect my opinion. It is not attraction when a man is interested in a woman because of her body. That is his satisfaction. Wearing the hijab has not subtracted from my beauty, but actually protected it. Finally, I refuse to be an exhausted and used teenage girl who is dumped and recycled numerous times before she finds a real man that will actually respect her, a man that will love and admire the inside just as much as the outside. I am not the least bit disappointed that I will never be like that.
I realize you have questions and I do have the answers. I know that the media makes you confused and I would not blame you either. With the images you see on TV, it seems contradictory that my religion is all about peace. If there is still any confusion, just ask because I want to clear up any misunderstandings you might have. I enjoyed answering your questions. However, no, you cannot have a peek at my hair, so stop asking.

The heat was stifling, security measures were intense, and memories of the Boston Marathon bombings were lingering, but hundreds of thousands of devoted revelers jammed patches of green along the Charles River on Thursday to take in Boston's July Fourth gala.
Temperatures rose to 93 degrees by midday and lingered above 90 into the evening, which some officials primarily blamed for a lower turnout than recent years. More than 200 people sought treatment at medical tents along the Esplanade for heat-related illnesses; a dozen were transported to hospitals.
Just getting onto the Esplanade for the annual fireworks display and Boston Pops holiday concert was a task, with security heightened in response to the bombings, whose alleged planners originally targeted the Fourth of July celebration.
But for some, no obstacle could keep them away.
The cluster of families camped out near the front edge of the Hatch Shell have come to the Esplanade so many years in a row, they've even given themselves a nickname: "The Red, White, and Blue Crew."
The group, now numbering about 70, became friends over years of standing in line for the event.
"We're from all over the country — all across the political and personal spectrums — but we all center around Boston patriotism and the Pops music," said T.C. Jones, 59, a Virginia resident.
Though wary of security concerns, they weren't willing to miss the Fourth of July on the Charles.
"It was the scariest thing I ever heard when I heard the Esplanade was the original target" of the alleged bombers, said Greg Hebert, 57, of Waltham. "But if we stay home out of fear, the terrorists win."
By the time the fireworks launched at 9:30 p.m., the Esplanade was packed nearly to capacity as onlookers craned their necks toward the sky to watch the colorful display. State Police estimated more than 300,000 people crowded the lawn. But that was less than the half-million people that have attended the event when the weather was good.
State Police said some potential revelers may have stayed home to avoid the scorching temperatures and humidity. Across the Esplanade, couples wiped sweat off each other's faces with napkins. Children tried to suck down Italian ices before they melted.
"It really is hot and oppressive, and that doesn't make it attractive for people," said State Police Colonel Timothy Alben, who acknowledged the strict security measures also may have kept people away.
State troopers in bulletproof vests, federal officials, and local police patrolled the Esplanade and nearby footbridges throughout the day and into the evening, along with what Alben called "an exponentially larger amount of cameras than ever before."
Those weren't the only reminders of the Marathon bombings that rocked the city nearly three months ago. During the evening concert, Richard Donohue, the transit police officer critically wounded during a shootout with the bombing suspects, brought the crowd to its feet when he conducted the orchestra as it performed the Dropkick Murphys' ode to the city, "I'm Shipping Up to Boston."
As the fireworks lit up a cloudless sky, the voice of Mayor Thomas M. Menino was piped through the speakers, championing the city's strength and resilience.
Throughout the day, visitors seemed unusually patient with the sometimes slow security measures at checkpoints.
But the process was not without a sense of confusion. Backpacks were not allowed, yet security workers allowed some to carry in large duffel bags and bulky purses.
State Police spokesman David Procopio said backpacks are less malleable and flexible than some other types of bags. He said some people were asked to roll up their bags inside clear plastic bags while passing through security and were allowed to unroll them once inside.
Dale Schaetzke, a Shrewsbury real estate auctioneer, was surprised when a security official made him give up a beach umbrella, which was not on the list of prohibited items. He said the security officers who confiscated it told him they did not want beach umbrellas because they could be used as spears.
Schaetzke noticed that pop-up tents and canopies were allowed, though.
"I understand that there is a hyper-sensitivity to protecting public safety, but if you can bring in a 10x10 tent, why can't you bring in a beach umbrella?" he said.
Alben said he understood the new rules may have led to confusion, and that State Police will reassess procedures for next year.
"The public has cooperated tremendously" with the security, he said. "There are always going to be some people who don't like [tight security]. We understand that. But I think it's the world we live in."
Some revelers said the restrictions and large police presence made them feel safer.
"I'm glad they're checking bags and walking around," said Ricky Diaz, who sat by the river with his wife, Brittany, and their 1-year-old daughter. "It shows they're not just letting anybody in."
Shay Zohal, 32, was at the event for the first time and said he wasn't bothered either. "I'm from Israel," he said. "So this is nothing."
Governor Deval Patrick said the security level was appropriate under the circumstances.
"I think we have done what the public expects us to do in the wake of what happened at the Marathon," he said. "After every incident, everybody takes a step back and tries to learn from it and that's what this is about."
But as the fabled "1812 Overture" drew to a booming close and the fireworks began exploding over the river, some who spent the day baking in the heat said it was worth any inconvenience.
Near the front, T.C. Jones, of the Red, White, and Blue Crew wiped sweat off his brow and confetti off the American flag jersey he has worn every Fourth of July for 20 years.
"Now that's why I drive past D.C., past New York, past Philadelphia," said Jones, a veteran of the 82d Airborne Division. "This is the best party in the nation."
As that party drew to a close at 10 p.m. and the final burst of light faded in the sky, longtime Boston resident Sandi Padellaro-Lopez, 68, was among the last of the crowd to leave.
"Today was pride," she said. "We aren't going to let the bombings get to us. Living our lives is the best revenge."Martin Finucane of the Globe staff and Globe correspondents Alyssa Botelho, Nikita Lalwani, and Javier Panzar contributed to this report.

For more on all things Lambrecht Auction, CHECK OUT OUR COMPLETE COVERAGE HERE:
When we told you all about the Lambrecht Chevrolet collection in Pierce, Nebraska, a couple of months back, the auction of the cars stored inside and near the out-of-commission dealership seemed far away. It has snuck up quite quickly, however, as the cars are being prepared to roll across the block this weekend. You'll be able to watch the action live during the History Channel's "History Made Now: Wheels of Fortune" special.
The show will take place on Saturday, September 28th from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. ET/PT and will be hosted by Brian Unger. Top Gear's Rutledge Wood and Tanner Foust will also take part in the special event that many are calling a "Time Capsule" auction.
Of the over-500 cars being liquidated, many have less than 10 miles on their odometers, and some even retain factory-wrapped seats. They span the model years of the '50s, '60s, and '70s, and while some are worse for the wear after being stored outside for many years, most remain a car collector's dream.
The dealership closed down in 1996 after over 50 years in business with only the owners and a single mechanic running the show. The doors were closed and the cars that were stored inside didn't see daylight again until a couple of months ago when inventory was taken to prepare for the auction. More about Lambrecht Chevrolet and its owners Ray and Mildred Lambrecht can be found here!
A 1978 Chevrolet Indy Pace Car Corvette with only four miles, a 1958 Chevrolet Apache 31 Series Pickup with five miles, a 1958 Chevrolet Cameo Pickup with only two miles, and a 1964 Chevrolet Impala two-door HT with only four miles are among those cars up for grabs.
The auction, presented by VanDerBrink Auctions (www.vanderbrinkauctions.com), will include live online bidding by Proxibid, ensuring that anyone in the world with an Internet connection can participate in this historic event by visiting www.proxibid.com/vanderbrink.

Sarin took half a mill in 'sod off' expenses
Career in British politics surely beckons
The ex-boss of Vodafone Arun Sarin took relocation payments of £500,000 to get himself and his luggage back to the US after leaving the mobile giant.
Admittedly unlike most of the MPs caught up in the expenses row, Sarin did deliver profits of over £10bn at the firm he ran for five years. He also worked hard to win over a sceptical board and shareholders, and got Vodafone a slice of the enormous Indian market.
Vodafone's annual report reveals the figure, only a fraction of the £8.1m Sarin pocketed in his last year.
And the firm got a much better deal than when Sarin moved from the US to the UK to take up his post - that cost Vodafone £835,000, the FT reports.
Vodafone said that Sarin's successor Vittorio Colao would not be getting a similar payment when he clears his desk. ®

BUFFALO, NY – Do you or someone you know have what it takes to become America's "Small Business Person of the Year" for 2013? If so, the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) wants to hear from you.
Every year since 1963, the President of the United States has issued a proclamation announcing National Small Business Week, which recognizes the critical contributions of America's entrepreneurs and small business owners. As you might know, more than half of Americans either own or work for a small business, and they create about two out of every three new jobs in the U.S. each year.
As part of National Small Business Week, the U.S. Small Business Administration's Buffalo District Office will take the opportunity to highlight the impact of outstanding entrepreneurs, small business owners, and others from within one of the counties served by the Buffalo District Office. Every day, they're working to grow small businesses, create 21st century jobs, drive innovation, and increase America's global competitiveness. *
During Small Business Week, we showcase and recognize some of the most successful and inspiring entrepreneurs. We would ask for your assistance in finding and nominating candidates for these awards. Please take the time over the coming weeks to identify outstanding small companies to champion them through this nomination process. Through your support of the finest candidates, you will be helping the most important local recognition for American small businesses.
Business owners from Western New York who have been named as the Buffalo District "Small Business Person of the Year," will be invited to attend the SBA's Small Business Week Awards Reception and Luncheon held in May. Some local award winners will be invited to Washington, D.C. for SBW '13 – Celebrating Small Business Week.
Each state's Small Business Person of the year must meet criteria which include staying power, growth in employment, increase in sales/unit volume, innovation, response to adversity, and evidence of contributions to his/her community.
Champion awards are also presented to persons who have used their professional skills or personal talents to further public understanding and awareness of small business. Candidates must have taken an active role in creating opportunities to promote the interests of small business. Champion categories include Women in Business, Minority, Veteran, Family Business, Home-Based Business, and Financial Services. A Champion may or may not be an entrepreneur.
Also, special awards are also presented to the Small Business Exporter and Young Entrepreneur of the Year.
Nominations in the Small Business Person of the Year, Champions of the Year and special Small Business Week award categories can be made by any individual or organizations such as professional and trade associations, business organizations, chambers of commerce, banks, or a small business' employees.
All nominations must be received by the Buffalo District office no later than January 3, 2013. To obtain information or receive a copy of the Nomination Guidelines, please contact Kelly LoTempio at email@example.com or by phone at (716) 551-4301 ext. 309.
*The Buffalo District Office of the Small Business Administration serves the 14 western most counties of New York State, which include: Erie, Niagara, Chautauqua, Cattaraugus, Wyoming, Orleans, Genesee, Alleghany, Monroe, Livingston, Wayne, Seneca, Yates and Ontario Counties.
All SBA programs and services are provided on a nondiscriminatory basis | Reasonable accommodations will be made if requested at least two weeks in advance

Filmmaker Discusses Creative Marketing, Freeing Up Movies, Embracing New Business Models
from the sounds-cool dept
FNB: It's true, everyone is talking about this, what is the economic model? Is there one?Indeed. We've been pointing out for the better part of a decade that going to the movies is a social experience, and the best way to do that is to make that experience better. Many theaters have started to catch on to this (finally).
SP: Not yet. The music industry is slightly ahead of us and had to go through the same thing already and it's shock, horror, terror, everyone's going to go bankrupt because everyone can have everything for free. Lots of resistance, I'm talking about filmmaking now, legislating against copyright and everything is watermarked, anxious, anxious, and all that. And I think my attitude is, go the other way. Open the gates, say "okay have it." It's free, it's yours and then if you want me to go on and make other things, you're going to have to complete the circle by going out and buying the DVD. Maybe in the future it will be some sort of subscription model but I always wanted to do that with this one.
FNB: There was a recent article we read that said the next generation of digital consumers still wants to pay to go to theaters. It's not mutually exclusive, which is calming to know that just because one is succeeding doesn't mean the other is going to disappear.
SP: Its not either/or, it's AND. It might make cinema owners and distributors sit up a little bit, and make it a more pleasant and thrilling experience to go to the theater, make the quality of the projection better, the seats more comfortable, make it back to the real beginnings of what joining together in a big group is all about. Similar people can have their own access to watch it home on Blu-ray, its one of the things that I do. I have a good screen and I watch things together with a group of friends. Comfortably lying about. And that feel just as true of a cinema experience as going to some wonderful cinema.

Al Brooks provides bar-by-bar analysis on a five-minute chart of the previous day's prices action in the E-mini S&P 500. This is his analysis for Tuesday, Aug. 5, 2014.
- Bar 1 - Yesterday ended with consecutive buy climax so today will probably have a bear leg lasting a couple of hours at some point today. 60 minimum or minutes chart looks like it needs more sideways bars before deciding between trend resumption or trend reversal. Odds favor two legs down at the moment, but probably more sideways first. Doji but far from moving average above so bears will probably not sell or short 1 high and might sell or short 1 - 2 points higher for scalp. Possible low of the day but better to buy or long above bull bar. Blue line = low of yesterday = sell or short signal on daily. Pink line open low of last week
- Bar 3 - 15 minimum or minutes opening reversal, breakout pullback sell or short but doji, strong 1, so low probability high of the day. Swing or wait. Probably limit order market, sellers scaling in above, buyers below, both scalping
- Bar 6 - Two legged pullback in a bull move 1 but tail, not at support. Probably always in short after 3 bear bars but probably trading range day so bears can swing, but more likely will enter bull leg soon since in bottom half of yesterday range
- Bar 8 - Parabolic wedge 1 5 7, opening reversal above yesterday 28 bottom of bull channel, but tight trading range, bad for scalping with stop entries unless using swing stop. Ok swing buy or long
- Bar 11 - Breakout, always in long, but weak rally so probably will be trading range
- Bar 14 - Double top 3, but strong enough bull leg so probably buy below or buyers at the low of the bar and probably scaling in lower
- Bar 16 - Breakout pullback buy or long but top of weak bull leg so low probability. Always in long, but probably will test down soon
- Bar 17 - Wedge 3 13, even tho lower high. Fail, failure breakout high of the day, second entry. Ok swing but always in long so probably buy below or buyers at the low of the bar and probably scaling in lower
- Bar 20 - Higher low major trend reversal, breakout test or bought 6, but doji, 3 bear bars, trading range day. Always in long, ok swing, but ok to wait since probably sell above or sellers at the high of the bar and probably scaling in higher and more sideways
- Bar 23 - Wedge 3 13 but doji so swing or better to wait for a strong bear breakout or second entry sell. Still always in long but top of trading range so better to wait to bl
- Bar 29 - Double bottom 21, but 7 bars down, tail, wedge top 23 so probably sell above or sellers at the high of the bar and probably scaling in higher. Low probability buy or long. Trading range so probably will fall below support 10 before trying to reverse up
- Bar 32 - Fail, failure breakout 19, microwedge, but 10 bar bear microchannel so better to wait for a strong bull breakout or second entry buy
The Emini's dominant price action feature of the today is the opening reversal from above yesterday's low, with yesterday being a sell signal bar for a low 1 short (a pullback from a bear breakout) on the daily chart. Last week's bear breakout on the daily chart was strong enough so that the rally will more likely form a lower high major trend reversal, and it will probably be followed by at least a second leg down to one of the support levels below. The minimum target is below 1900. For today's real-time update, see Intraday Market Update. For more on the current S&P 500 and E-mini weekly charts, see Weekly market update.

No, I haven't lost my marbles! But at least now I got your attention, I think.
As you know, I have pursued a side project in German language learning since April 2008 called Deutsch Happen. On the basis of a more or less regular schedule I have produced different kinds of video lessons to test out teaching ideas and to support learners of German as a foreign language who might have no access to paid solutions.
For the past couple of months I have been experimenting with some strategies on how to grow my audience on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube and the results are good enough to take this to the next step: I am building a MVP.

LR man interviewed, released in brother's fatal shooting
This article was originally published May 6, 2014 at 9:22 a.m. Updated May 14, 2014 at 9:31 a.m.

Little Rock police have interviewed and released a man who they say fatally shot his brother after being threatened with a knife.
Fred Lee Mosby Jr., 35, who had been sought by police in the shooting and who surrendered about 9 p.m. Tuesday, gave a statement and was released without charges, Little Rock Police Department Lt. Sidney Allen said Wednesday. The file will be sent to the prosecutors' office for review to determine whether Mosby's use of force was justified and whether charges will be filed, Allen said.
About 1:45 a.m. May 6, Rhonda Mosby, 38, called police and said her husband, Keith Mosby, 33, had just been shot by his brother, Fred Mosby, in the stomach at their apartment at 1912 Green Mountain Drive, according to a Little Rock Police Department report.
She told police that before the shooting, Keith Mosby had told her to go lie down because he was going outside their apartment to smoke an unspecified drug, according to the report. When he returned, he was shaking and pulled out a blue pocket knife, she told police. She jumped up and ran outside the apartment and hid from him in the bushes because she was scared he would hurt her, according to the police report.
Then, she told police, she heard one shot ring out from inside the apartment, and Fred Mosby and his girlfriend, Penny Wittenberg, 38, ran outside and to an apartment upstairs, the report states. Then Rhonda Mosby saw her husband lying on the floor with a gunshot wound in his lower abdomen, police said.
Wittenberg told police that she and Fred Mosby had just brushed their teeth and were heading toward bed when they were approached by Keith Mosby, who came at Fred Mosby with the blue knife as if about to cut him, so Fred Mosby pulled out a black handgun and shot him, according to the report.
Wittenberg and Fred Mosby ran out of the apartment "in shock," she told police. He told Wittenberg to "call the police and make sure his brother was OK," according to the report, before fleeing.
Keith Mosby was taken to Baptist Health Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.
The death was Little Rock's 24th homicide this year.

This has got to be the third story in the last few months about brother shooting brother, son shooting dad, etc. Whats the deals with the deal with these "people"? Quick on the trigger. Ignorant, but hey it's societies fault. Pop will chime in shortly about poor schools, support programs, lack of the baby daddy, blah, blah. Rich, poor, black, white, one knows killing a person over something like this is wrong. End of story.

Top Three
The top three server makers -- HP, Dell and IBM -- in 2012 accounted for 72 percent of the server market-share pie for shipped gear in 2012. HP leads the server pack, with 32.6 percent of the market for servers shipped in 2012, IDC reported. It is followed by Dell, with 25.9 percent of the market, and then IBM with 13 percent.
Noticeably missing from this IDC leaderboard are contract manufacturers such as Foxconn, Flextronics and Jabil that build systems for OEMs, Google and Facebook.

Carlos Lee: .275/.342/.446 (653 PAs)
J.D. Martinez: .274/.319/.423 (226 PAs)
Jordan Schafer: .242/.309/.315 (337 PAs)
J.B. Shuck: .272/.359/.321 (92 PAs)
Wednesday, January 11, 2012
So. Many. Outfielders.
2 comments:
Unless Shuck gets fast enough to play CF, I think he could use another season at AAA and then he's ready to be a perfect 4th or 5th OF. He doesn't necessarily need it but as a player that won't play every day, he'll benefit from the extra seasoning. And with Only one option remaining I hope they keep F-Mart in AAA until he's truely ready. GO BOURGEOIS!!!

now that none of the options include Jason Michaels, I will consider this progress.
