From Snakedance of "Hatshepsut and other dances" to Danza Del Vientre Mysterioso. Abdel Hazim cannot be put in one box, but perhaps an UFO could help. So the question remains... from which galaxy?

Maine East Premieres Show, Scales 'Heights'
Maine East is one of the first high schools in the country to stage the Tony-Award winning Broadway musical 'In the Heights." It's got awesome hip-hop and Latin dancing, and the storyline, about immigrant families adapting, mirrors the student body.
Actors, dancers and set builders are buzzing with excitement at Maine East High School as they prepare to open the musical In the Heights Friday. It's the first high school in Illinois to produce this Tony Award-winning Broadway show, and only the fifth high school in the country to do so. The school's theater department is also excited about the fact that the play, telling the tale of immigrants' children trying to make it in America, is also the personal story of so many of the school's students, who came here from dozens of other countries. Patch.com asked Ed Eubank and Karen Hall of Maine East to fill us in. You can see the show March 1, 2, 8 or 9 at 7:30 p.m. at Maine East. Details below. Patch: How is it that Maine East became …

If Ultrabooks lasted longer, would YOU open your wallet?
LSI is betting its flashy controllers you would
Unfruity Ultrabook users will be able to keep it up for longer with LSI's specially enhanced SandForce controllers.
The SF-2100 and -2200 Flash Storage Processors as they are called handle flash so sensitively that Ultrabook users may get an extra hour of battery life compared to other, non-specified controllers. It's all to do with power management optimisation which, LSI claims, enable SSD manufacturers to build drives that use power more efficiently, and shorten system boot and resume times, compared to what exactly LSI doesn't say.
It does say its shipped more than 10 million SandForce flash processors since 2010; LSI bought SandForce at the end of November in 2011.
Ultrabook sales are forecast to grow 92 per cent compounded through to 2017. LSI needs Ultrabook to become popular so that it can reap the benefits of its SandForce power optimisation work. So far they have flopped as they are too expensive and don't measure up to Apple's MacBook Air standard. Cheaper, thinner and extended life models could reverse that and enable LSI to ship another 10 million or more of its SandForce products. ®
Re: Not a PC
"not being a PC" - Apple computer's don't have Intel x84/x64 processors, neither do they have RAM chips, PCI express bridges and USB host devices. They simply run on magic, fairy dust and the excited 'squees' of trendy people with goatees using them in coffee shops and airy loft converted design studios.
My PC doesn't have an ISA bridge and it's 5 years old. Do you think the presence of a serial port honestly effects battery life and performance?
Re: "Not a PC" What? You are not suggesting that Apple will *copy* this are you?
Yes, ok, but in this instance all Apple need do is switch their flash controllers in the next batch of laptops to LSI. LSI are hardly likely to turn around and say 'go away you're note building an Ultrabook', they'll say 'certainty sir, how many hundreds of reels was that? and what sort of discount can I offer you gents?'
Re: "Not a PC" What? You are not suggesting that Apple will *copy* this are you?
Well ther you go, you are mistaken.
Apple NEVER copy anything, they strip it down, study it, then reverse engineer the same thing but with a new logo on it.
That is innovative and revolutionary, just not evolutionary. Mind you it is "magic" to get so many, including hardnosed hacks, to buy into the me want one hype.
I too looked at the title, and hoped for the impossible - standard laptop components like we have for desktops. Parts of my desktop are ancient because I can keep using them when I upgrade other bits. You could do with some standard laptop case sizes so you can transfer your good components. I would like to upgrade my CPU/chipset to something quieter, but lack of standards mean I would have to replace the LCD, keyboard, touch pad and case at the same time.
If Intel want a faster upgrade cycle, they will have to sort out some standards - over the dead bodies of the current laptop and LCD manufacturers.
What year was this written?
Apple already uses Sandforce controllers in the latest MacBook Air

Back in July, "Dr.Oz" reported the results of tests showing alarmingly high levels of arsenic in some apple juice, including Motts. Back then, the FDA responded y saying that the type of arsenic in juices - organic arsenic - is harmless. But in its Jan 2012 issue, Consumer Reports is releasing the results of its own investigation: Juices that are popular with babies and kids contain elevated levels of carcinogenic arsenic, and U.S. grown rice contains worrying levels of the same compound.
- Roughly 10 percent of our juice samples, from five brands, had total arsenic levels that exceeded federal drinking-water standards. Most of that arsenic was inorganic arsenic, a known carcinogen.
- One in four samples had lead levels higher than the FDA's bottled-water limit of 5 ppb. As with arsenic, no federal limit exists for lead in juice.
- Mounting scientific evidence suggests that chronic exposure to arsenic and lead even at levels below water standards can result in serious health problems.
Where's the arsenic coming from?
The source of the arsenic is pesticides that have been banned in the U.S. since the '80s. The contaminated juices come from China, where the pesticide is still legal; and it has contaminated ground waters here, where rice is grown in deep paddies. Consumer Reports' advocacy arm is pressuring the FDA to regulate arsenic in foods (currently it's only regulated in drinking water) and is recommending that manufacturers of ground rice for babies use techniques that don't require deep-paddy growing.
What's a mom to do?
According to CR, rice grown in California has a 41% lower arsenic level than Southern rice, and Basmati rice from India and Pakistan has even lower levels. Boxed ground rice sold for babies doesn't usually indicate origin, but it's pretty easy to grind rice in a blender and make your own baby food. Here's how. (You can read more about arsenic in rice for adults and babies here.) As for juices, Consumer Reports has produced an easy-glance chart showing test results for 88 popular juices, including Juicy Juice 100% (low levels) and Whole Foods' 365 (high levels) - check it out.
People can make their own healthy apple juice.. Without having to contribute to the big Corporations and the packaged products that are full of unhealthy preservatives anyway. You learn to go back to the roots of our past and discover the health benefits to our foods as well as medicinal uses; you then become a Wise Woman and can have your own apple juice at your convince.. Sometimes it takes extra steps to provide the best nutrition as possible to a child.. You do reap the benefits later ;)
that's easy if you have access to organic apples and a juicer.
take an organic apple, put in a juicer. BAM! how easy is that?
silvermix81, I totally agree. As moms we try so hard to do our best to keep our children safe and healthy, then BAM some study comes out. It can be so exasperating and drive one batty. Like we don't have enough to worry about.
hmmm seems like it's something all the time :/

As states cut education budgets in response to the nation's continuing economic woes, student-to-teacher ratios are again on the rise after decades of decline. This resurrects an age-old debate in American education: does class size really matter?
To many educators, the answer seems obvious: Teachers who have fewer students can give each child more attention and tailored instruction. And parents agree. For years, annual surveys conducted by the New York City Department of Education have shown that the top priority of school parents is reducing class size, far outpacing "more effective leadership," "more teacher training," "more or better art programs," "more challenging courses" and both "more preparation for state tests" and "less preparation for state tests."
But the data on class size is not conclusive, if only because, in the last quarter-century, there's been just one proper randomized, controlled study in the United States to measure, at sufficient scale, the effect of smaller and larger classes on student achievement. Known as Project STAR, it found that smaller classes do produce lasting gains, especially for economically disadvantaged and minority-group students. Read more…

My dad died last month. He managed all the finances all through his and Ma's married lives and has left her well provided for. Really, unless she needs to go into a home I doubt there's anything she's really ever going to want that she's not going to be able to afford as she's not an extravagant woman. She lives with me and my son (and my father did too) and I pay all the day to day bills for the house.
Even before her dementia I don't think Ma would have managed balancing a cheque book or paying bills but now, in the aftermath of Daddy's death, we're facing a whole new set of problems and I wonder if anybody's got any solutions.
Basically Ma cannot understand that she has money and that it's accessible in a couple of banks. I've tried listing the names of the banks, how much was in there last time she had a statement, and which bank is the one where the pension comes in.
Every day I have to reassure her that she's not going to the poor house. I've shown her the sum total of all the cash she has.
The local bank knows her and is fairly sensitive to the fact that she really doesn't quite understand what's going on and are always very helpful when she goes to withdraw money, so it's not as if she's going into a branch that doesn't care about her account.
Any ideas what I can do? She keeps saying she wants to go into each and every bank and find out how much money she's got -- should I let her? I just worry that somebody will be very unkind to her or actually let her withdraw a large sum of money that will attract unwanted attention and lead to her being robbed.

Mitchell Main Street & Beyond charts future
Designers solicit thoughts of community members at public meetings.By: Tom Lawrence, The Daily Republic
The future of an improved downtown Mitchell was under discussion Tuesday, as Mitchell Main Street & Beyond held four meetings to gather input and consider options.
MMS&B and representatives from designArc architecture + design LLC, a Brookings firm, met with downtown business owners, employees and members of the public Tuesday afternoon in the second of the four meetings held in the lower level of the Midtown Mall.
MMS&B board members met in the morning, and city officials met with the group later. The Mitchell Historic Preservation Commission held the final meeting.
During the public input gathering, Les Rowland, the owner of designArc and an architect himself, said the point of the meeting was to review an online survey, and listen and learn. About 20 people attended.
"This design is for you," Rowland said. "It's going to take you as a group to promote this and make it happen."
MMS&B hired the Brookings-based team in July to provide "an innovative, comprehensive streetscape and landscape plan" for Main Street. The goal is to create a strategic plan to convert downtown into an inviting and user-friendly environment. The project is proposed from The Depot restaurant to the Corn Palace on Main Street, and from Sanborn Boulevard to Kimball Street on First Avenue.
Two designArc staffers, Lynda Pierce, a designer, and Jon Meendering, an associate architect, and Patri Acevedo-Riker, an architect and historic preservation consultant with AcV2 of Rapid City, explained what they had learned, what they were working on and fielded questions from the people who attended the meeting.
"This is going to be information-gathering," Pierce said.
Pierce revealed the results of an online survey on downtown. When people were asked to use one word to describe the best possible downtown Mitchell, answers included inviting, clean, vibrant, historic, thriving, unique, community, fun, artistic and Corn Palace.
When asked about two or three features that were needed, the overwhelming leader was landscaping/green space, followed by benches and gathering spaces, which Pierce said "go hand-in-hand." They drew 75 percent of the response. The other 25 percent was promoting the area's historic identity, which she said was "amazing."
Acevedo-Riker said she has been cataloging historical buildings and items of interest downtown, and will offer suggestions on how to preserve and improve them. She said of the 96 buildings in the downtown area, 72 are considered to have historic aspects. They could qualify for tax incentives and other benefits.
The online study offered other bits of information.
Shopping, tourism and dining are the three main reasons people come downtown.
The old bank building, the Corn Palace, the Ben Franklin building, The Depot, the Medical Arts Buildings and other structures were named as favorite downtown buildings. The online survey is another tool to help guide the effort to boost Mitchell's downtown, which has struggled to fill all buildings and keep its existing businesses thriving.
"Anything is possible at this point," Pierce said. "We're looking for your input. Let's go to the stars, basically, and we'll work our way back to what's possible, what you guys are looking for and how much you can spend."
MMS&B Executive Director Molly Goldsmith said no money has been allocated for the project. MMS&B paid for the study, and more will follow, before any work is done in the downtown area.
"We can't commit money to a project that doesn't exist yet," she said.
"I guess I'm not that patient," Mitchell resident Tara Volesky said. "I'd just like to see some action."
Andy Jerke, of James Valley Nursery, said more must be done than simply making downtown more attractive.
"Just redoing Main Street will do us no good, because there's no reason to be there," Jerke said. "There has to be a reason to be here.
"We have to find a way to bring people down here," he said. "As local citizens, we're not going to visit the Corn Palace every day. Tourists will, but we won't."
Carrie English, of Mitchell, the former MMS&B executive director and chairwoman of the Mitchell Historic Preservation Commission, said perception is a problem. Many people see downtown as "dry, barren and hot. There's nothing living. I don't want to be someplace where there's nothing living."
Pierce said the input was helpful.
"I think you guys know what you want, it's just, how do we get there?" she said.
Acevedo-Riker said Rapid City started small, with some streetscaping, additional garbage cans and other improvements. Soon, the area bloomed, and it has become a thriving area.
"There's not a single empty storefront," she said.
Brookings has also benefited from its downtown redesign.
"We have seen vacant buildings become occupied," Pierce said. "I think it's helped quite a bit."
Communities that have worked to revitalize downtown areas and can serve as role models for Mitchell are Rapid City, Omaha, Milwaukee and Minneapolis, people said. But it's important for Mitchell to find its own answers.
"It's finding what's at the core of Mitchell to have an impact," Meendering said.
Volesky urged MMS&B to emulate Rapid City, which revitalized its slumping downtown with a public square.
"We've got a head start on Rapid City, since we're drawing over 200,000 people to see the Corn Palace," Volesky said. She said Mitchell is also a "hub city" for surrounding communities.
The 2012 mayoral candidate once more pitched her idea for an ice-skating rink/outdoor stage with fountains, similar to the one Rapid City built. Mitchell should also model Brookings, which redid its downtown core in large part by using city staff and services, Volesky said.
She said the $6.2 million proposed to be spent to revitalize the Corn Palace should be invested elsewhere.
"I think that's a waste of money," Volesky said. "I think that money should be spent on Main Street and outside of the Corn Palace."
She said she favors spending $1 million for new seats in the Corn Palace, and the remainder put into the streetscape project.
Goldsmith said the Corn Palace money has already been allocated for other projects, but Volesky said no final plans have been put into place. That money could provide a boost for the streetscaping.
Bob Schoenfelder, downtown business owner of Mitchell, asked about adding parking to make the area more inviting to people, especially elderly people who don't want to walk a block or two to a business.
Most people at the meeting said there is enough parking in downtown, but with more people living there, and a goal of bringing more people to the area, more parking will be needed.
Some business owners and employees said there has long been a problem with downtown residents taking up parking spaces, which prevents possible customers from using the spots. That hurts businesses. That needs to be resolved, they said, and there are ongoing efforts to do just that.
Pierce said parking options are under review. There was some discussion on converting to diagonal parking as opposed to the current curbside parking.
Pierce said Mitchell's Main Street is wide, which offers a lot of options. It has the design firm "excited," she said.
A two-story parking ramp was discussed, but Rowland said it's cheaper to buy land for a parking lot than to erect such a building. There is also some concern that people may not want to pay for parking.
Rowland said his firm will have a vision completed by February, with designs and proposals to be presented. That will be the next step in a long road to completing this revitalization effort, Goldsmith said.
The team for the Mitchell streetscape planning process is comprised of representatives from South Dakota including designArc, of Brookings, James Valley Nursery, of Mitchell, AcV2, of Rapid City, Civil Design Inc., of Brookings, and Roby Quintal Everson Engineers, of Mitchell.

text: Okay, quick disclaimer. I didn't take the pictures long ago. I took them when I was back on the old homestead on my cell phone. Preemptive apologies on picture quality. I'm a little dry this Friday, so I figure I'll let the pictures do the talking. These are from a park in Pennsylvania, USA. I'll let it go at that. These fire pits and well structures were built back in the days. I can't tell you when those days were. Nobody seems to remember, except that it was back in 1900-something. Ish. I'm sure there's some historian who knows. The structures aren't remarkable unto themselves, but they really put me in mind to a time waaaaay long ago. Possibly when supernatural creatures roamed the earth. I'm sure there's a story in there somewhere, but it hasn't taken solid shape yet. Anyway, look through the window of the fire pit and tell me you don't expect people in armor or elves or something to wander by.

I also ordered this gorgeous dress from Motel Rocks, after getting a valentines voucher in the post. I love it so much!! Wasn't sure how it was going to look on me, but it fits really well and I love that I can wear it with black tights and accessories. Perfect little evening dress as well!
Also, getting my hair cut today means I have tried out plenty of hair accessories to see what I like. My new bowler hat from Urban Outfitters looks so much better with short hair, and I love the flower crown (crown and glory), especially for a feminine touch on a day like today!!

There is no Market Research Poll Currently Running.
Without First Nations, Canada wouldn't be what it is today.
That's one of many reasons Fort William Historical Park held its annual Anishnawbe Keeshigun festival over the weekend. First Nations played a crucial role not only in the fur trade but in building Canada as a whole. Fort spokesman Marty Mascarin points to the war of 1812 as an example.
"They aided the British in stopping American forces all along the border so if it wasn't for their involvement we could very well be under the stars and stripes instead of the red and white today," Mascarin said. "It's very important to highlight that when we can."
Saturday and Sunday saw traditional singing, dancing and drumming along with a Powwow and games to celebrate the event.
"Plus a lot of other demonstrations and activities that you don't normally see at the fort every day," Mascarin said. "Those big and small have something to get involved with."
Hundreds of people filled the fort. Mascarin said good weather helped the turnout.

CONSTANTINE, Mich. (AP) — Michigan health officials say the number of state residents infected during a national outbreak of fungal meningitis has risen by nine to 197, with 13 deaths.
The Michigan Department of Community Health says that as of Friday, there have been 68 meningitis cases, 116 epidural abscesses, one stroke and 13 joint infections. The total of 197 infections is up from 188 in Wednesday's count.
The totals include three Michigan residents who died after contracting meningitis infections in Indiana.
The fungal meningitis outbreak is linked to contaminated steroids produced by a Massachusetts pharmacy used in injections for neck or back pain.

Conference Proceeding: Parameter selection on admission control scheme for cellular system
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In future wireless systems, radio resources, i.e., radio spectrum or bandwidth, will become more and more precious and scarce, driving radio resource management (RRM) schemes towards greater efficiency. At the same time, high user mobility with ever smaller cellular architectures and a hierarchical cellular system will result in increased handoff. An admission control (AC) scheme is a key part of RRM and it is vital that it deals reasonably with the potential load and handoff, prevents congestion and efficiently utilizes radio resources while guaranteeing the required QoS of current connections. A predictive admission control scheme is proposed which is a promising way to realize broadband access in a wireless communication system effectively. According to its structure, it is easy to work cooperatively with other RRM functions. In fact, its survival priorities can also be provided to decide the packet priorities by packet scheduling. It greatly improves the radio resource utilization ratio and reduces the handoff dropping probability while the total computational complexity is not very high. The unique problem may be that wireless systems should have a priori knowledge about user mobility and length of calls.Vehicular Technology Conference, 2004. VTC 2004-Spring. 2004 IEEE 59th; 06/2004

Results tagged ' New York Yankees '
Weekend Worries in Red Sox Nation?
Opening Weekend in Arlington, Texas was a highly anticipated series as the reigning American League Champs, the Texas Rangers,
hosted the much-hyped lineup and starting rotation of the Boston
Red Sox.
Ace Jon Lester took the mound for the Sox on Opening Day, followed by John Lackey and Clay Buchholz in games two and three. Boston fielded a solid lineup including the off-season acquisitions Adrian
Gonzalez and Carl Crawford, plus a healthy Jacoby Ellsbury, Dustin
Pedroia and Kevin Youkilis. With the young Saltalamacchia behind the
plate and veteran lovable David Ortiz in the DH spot, along with the
revamped bullpen including Daniel Bard, Jonathan Papelbon, Bobby Jenks,
Matt Albers, Dan Wheeler, Dennys Reyes and Tim Wakefield, the outlook was promising facing the stacked lineup of the defending AL champs.
We all know what happened in this three-game set. The Rangers dominated the Sox pitching, led by the likes of Ian Kinsler
and Nelson Cruz, who were the first pair of teammates in MLB history to each homer in the first three games of their season. Not to mention Adrian Beltre, who captured the hearts of Rangers fans after a monstrous grand slam off of his former
teammate, Lackey, who intentionally walked Josh Hamilton to load the
bases and get to the Dominican slugger. The Red Sox starters gave up 9
home runs in the first three games of the season, and in a combined 15.1
IP, had a 10.56 ERA, a 1.72 WHIP and only 6 strikeouts.
Bard, in 73 appearances last season, didn't give up more than two
runs in a single inning. On Friday, he gave up 4 ER in 0.2 IP with one K
and 1 BB. In a combined 8.2 IP, the Red Sox bullpen garnered an 8.30
ERA, a 2.08 WHIP and 6 strikeouts.
With all the negativity surrounding the Red Sox after an 0-3 start, I
can only say a few things: First, chill out. This is three games in a
162-game season. I'm fairly certain with 159 games left that we don't need to worry about either team's "Magic Number" yet. Second, look at the positives. Ortiz, after a slow start in his previous three seasons, went 4-12 (.333
BA) with two home runs. Also, Gonzalez went 5-13 (.385 BA) in
his first series in a Red Sox uniform. Third, CHILL OUT. Can we take a
look at the 1998 New York Yankees? They started their season 0-3, then
ended the season with a 114-48 record and won the World Series. If this series happened in June, nobody would be talking about it.
Now that I've gotten my ranting and venting out of the way, I'd like to
look forward to the next 3-game set starting Tuesday when the Red Sox
take on the Cleveland Indians at Progressive Field. Game one will see
Josh Beckett on the mound for the Red Sox while Josh Tomlin (2010: 6-4, 4.56 ERA) makes his
2011 debut hoping to shut down the Sox lineup. Beckett had a very
disappointing 2010 campaign. In 127.2 IP, he had a 6-6 record with a
5.78 ERA and 1.535 WHIP. "I think his pride took a beating last year,"
said skipper Terry Francona. "I definitely agree with that. I think he
feels like he has a
lot to prove" (via RedSox.com).
So, let's take a little breather, get excited about some more baseball,
and follow Marco Scutaro's lead in an old, familiar "Beltre Head Rub."
P.S. In a totally unrelated, non-Red Sox note, in the 8th inning of the Mets/Marlins game on Saturday evening, the Mets inserted pinch-runner Chin-lung Hu. So I know somewhere Abbott and Costello were smiling, as we all know, "Hu's on First?"

Memorable Season
April 4, 2010—the Red Sox had their home opener against their biggest
rival and the defending World Series Champions, the New York Yankees.
They came out on top that day, winning 9-7. Dustin Pedroia (2-for-4,
2-run HR, 3 RBIs) and Kevin Youkilis (3-for-4, 2 RBIs) helped carry the
team to victory. Josh Beckett started that game, going 4.2 innings,
giving up five runs off of eight hits, striking out only one while
walking three. This outing for Beckett was just a preview of things to
come this season, while he was anything but dominant all year long.
October 3, 2010, we ended our regular season on a high note against
those awful pinstripes, salvaging a W (8-4) over our arch rivals, while
managing to play spoiler and preventing them from clinching the AL East
title. Jed Lowrie went 2-for-3, belting two homeruns with 3 RBIs. John
Lackey, surprising us all, ended his season the way we were hoping he
would have pitched all year. He went 7.2 innings, giving up three runs
on six hits, walking only two, while tying his career high for strike
outs with ten.
I wish I could say that those two wins summed up
our season of positivity and success. However, there were 160 games in
between which messed with our emotions, sent us on a roller coaster
ride, broke our heart, devastated us as Red Sox fans and left us with
little hope that we could make it into October this year. We managed to
stay in contention into the final week of the season, but,
unfortunately, we were right. We didn't make it to the postseason, the
first time since 2006, and we were forced to start this lonely,
miserable off-season much earlier than we would have wanted.
so many excuses that we could use, or so many people we could blame
this season on. But, what's the point? There are multitude of reasons
for our struggles this year, and we've discussed them numerous times
throughout the season. I've decided to skip all that nonsense…because
as we all know, I'm all about optimism!
Daniel Bard has definitely proved
himself this year. In 74.2 IP, he finished strong with a 1.93 ERA.
He struck out 76, while producing a WHIP of 1.004. He's been a great
set-up man, but could potentially take over our closer position.
Buchholz had an absolutely outstanding season, and has even been in the
discussion for the Cy Young Award. He went 17-7 this year with a 2.33
ERA in 173.2 IP.
David Ortiz, despite having a rough start to
the season, ended with a .270 AVG, .370 OBP, .529 SLG and a .899 OPS. He
had 32 homeruns, and 102 RBIs. While winning the Home Run Derby this
year, he is showing everyone that Big Papi still has what it takes to
produce for our team.
Adrian Beltre had his best season since
2004, finishing with a .321 AVG, 28 homeruns, and 102 RBIs. He had a
.365 OBP, .553 SLG and a .919 OPS. Even though he inflicted some major
pain on a few of his teammates, he deserves a nice head-rub (joking)
after an exceptional season.
Jon Lester proved very dominant this season. With a 19-9 record, he ended the year with a 3.25 ERA in 208.0 IP, striking out 225 and walking 83.
Rookies Daniel Nava, Ryan Kalish
and Darnell McDonald managed to step up when asked and really helped our
team get through one of our toughest seasons in history.
We were plagued with many injuries this season, so here's a list of the players who spent time on the disabled list during the year:
Jarrod Saltalamacchia
Mike Lowell
Adrian Beltre
J.D. Drew
Marco Scutaro
Dustin Pedroia
Eric Patterson
Jacoby Ellsbury
Kevin Cash
Hideki Okajima
Jon Lester
Kevin Youkilis
Mike Cameron
Manny Delcarmen
Jason Varitek
Victor Martinez
Clay Buchholz
Jeremy Hermida
Daisuke Matsuzaka
Felipe Lopez
Josh Beckett
Junichi Tazawa
Boof Bonser
Jed Lowrie
Now, let's look at our Opening Day starting lineup-
Ellsbury LF
Pedroia 2B
Martinez C
Youkilis 1B
Ortiz DH
Beltre 3B
Drew RF
Cameron CF
Scutaro SS
This is absolutely heart-breaking to look at. David Ortiz is the only player from our Opening Day lineup to not have spent any time on the DL. We were given some tough hands to work with, and we still managed to end our season just shy of 90 wins (89-73).
On October 2, 2010, the Red Sox recognized Mike Lowell for an outstanding career, and honored him with an on-field ceremony as this was his final season in a Major League Baseball uniform. The 2007 World Series MVP was not only an exceptional player throughout his 12 year career, but an incredible human being who was well respected by everyone in the baseball world. He is a Tony Conigliaro Award Winner (1999), Silver Slugger Award Winner (2003), Gold Glove Award Winner (2005), 4x All-Star Selection (2002, 2003, 2004, 2007) and a 2x World Series Champion (2003, 2007). He will forever be #25 in the hearts of Red Sox Nation and will truly be missed as a player and person. We love you, Mikey!
Honestly, this has been one of my favorite seasons so far as a Red Sox fan. I know that might sound odd, and as surprising as it might be, I've grown to love this team, and Red Sox Nation even more than I used to. The Red Sox have been an important part of my life since I first stepped inside Fenway Park at the age of twelve and I've met so many amazing people because of my love for this team, and this game. I'm excited to see what happens this off-season, and I absolutely cannot wait until Spring Training next year. I plan on making a trip to Ft. Myers, FL in 2011, along with a few trips to my favorite place in this world—Boston and Fenway Park!
This sure has been a memorable season, and I'm so ready to see what's in store for next season…because like they say, there's always next year!
breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game
begins in spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in
the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the
chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone." -A. Bartlett Giamatti

Lets hear you predictions for this weekend games
Saturday, Jan. 3
Tennessee at Baltimore
I love home teams in the playoff, but this year has been crazy, Tenn can do it through the air, and can stop the run enough to give their offense a shot I like Tenn 23-16
Dallas at Carolina
John Fox will turn loose his D and Quicy will turn the ball over 5 times Carolina turns close game into a rout 27-10
Sunday, Jan. 4
Seattle at Green Bay
Every year a team gets on a roll I thought Green Bay was that team until a bad T-Day loss to the Lions. But they have seem to really around Farve...football is a emotional game and the game is being played on the frozen trudra Green Bay wins going away 31-21
Denver at Indianapolis
Wow... tough one Denver pounded the Colts two weeks ago, but that was then this is now as long and Payton and CO don't press they should win a high scoring game 37-24.

Cowboys at Panthers
I think the Panthers are gonna spank the Cowboys. Stephen Davis will show the Skins why they never shouldn't have let him go!
Panthers: 29 Pukes: 10
Titans at Ravens
This is gonna be one heckofa defensive battle. Should be a close score, decided by a field goal at the end.
Titans: 20 Ravens: 17
Seahawks at Packers
I think the Packers should spank the Seahawks, but for some reason I think the Seahawks are gonna give the Packers a good game. I really wouldn't be surprised if this game goes into over-time with the Packers winning by a field goal, or some kind of fluke interception return for a touchdown.
Packers: 33 Seahawks: 27
Broncos at Colts
Payton Manning an NFL MVP this year? Hmmmmm. Some people are suggesting this. I think he's gonna use this game to show the rest of the league why he should have been named MVP. Look for Manning to throw 4-5 TD passes in this game as INDY slams the door shut on the Broncos!
Colts: 41 Broncos: 10
Once final thought: Honest, I didn't go back and change my predictions after the final scores came in! HONEST!

Stephen Davis has actually beat the pukes, he's just lost the past nine and has one 100-yard game in 11 tries against them. Hopefully he'll stop the losing streak.

Trixie being heretical, Twilight being emo, and Fallout Equestria being ridiculously popular. It's music time!
1.) The Great and Powerful Heretic
2.) Nothing Special
3.) Fallout Equestria fanmusic) In Her Stead: theme of Velvet Remedy
finally, an excuse to stop the ever looping Froggy Bottom Bog.
One of these days I REALLY need to get around to reading Fallout Equestria.
So do I.. But I think the game sucks, so I keep putting it off. =/
@EphemeralBlue It's got a waaay better story than Fallout 3, so don't let that hold you back!
#3 was pretty epic.
#2 gets the rating of, something special.
#1 was okay.
By Celestia's Beard! Not them!--Royal Gaurdsman
If it walks we can drop it!--Luna's Devils
Fly me closer, I want to hit them with my sword!--Commissar
Loved #2. Haven't actually seen anyone do a remix of that!
Oh God, that Steelhooves...
R.I.P., oh Mighty Alicorn Hunter.
I totally ignored the videos and decided to comment because of how ridiculously epic the image is.
Somepony please make it happen...
Has something happened to Kkat? I haven't seen a FO:E update in weeks
All pretty neat, but the last one makes me want to read Fallout: Equestria. It's just so long...
Steel Rangers, actually. And yes, both the story by Kkat itself and the spinoff "Project Horizons" by Somber are both pretty darn decent.
And this is from a published author. Kkat made me read fanfiction... and like it.
First one was... okay. Found it to be rather boring as a whole however. Nothing really stuck out to me about it.
Second was okay. Kinda cool beat and all.
Like the third one. But it has a little of a classical feel to it too, so that's probably why. But nice.
Is Season Two over, Trixie?
"No, comrade. It has only begun."

My story
My brother and I and my friend Paul are planning to cycle around the island of Sjælland in Denmark (around 260 miles) over the period of 5 days in September 2012, to support the Leukaemia and Lymphoma research charity.
Blood cancer has affected my family, firstly taking my Grandad's life with CML, then my Gran with Lymphoma, now my 3 year old son William has AML TYPE M7. He was first diagnosed in Feb 2011 and was treated with Chemotherapy at the Royal Marsden in Sutton until June 2011. Unfortunately he relapsed over Xmas. He has since had 3 courses of Chemotherapy again at the Marsden Sutton and is due a bone marrow transplant in April/ May 2012. Though I wish I could cure this horrible disease, I know this is beyond me, though I can support the people who can make a difference with financial support. Please support me in my quest to help find a cure for this horrendous disease in the only way we can - with a donation to a leading charity.
My updates 3
So it was hard work, but we managed to crack it ok. Certainly William's pain was a constant reminder and driving force for me when things were tough. Thank you so much for the kind donations. I am really chuffed to have cracked £10000 and I'm sure the charity will use it well.
The trip was pretty hard going especially on the Friday where we were cycling directly into very strong winds and rain (The winds were seen to be blowing trees down around Denmark).
We completed the 260 Miles ride between Thurs 13th & Monday 17th September. There are Photos + GPS positioning of where they were taken on my Twitter page https://twitter.com/JamesLyne1

Gibberman: What were they thinking?
Originally published: Jul 20, 2009 - 12:14 pm
What Were They Thinking... I can't stand that the Minnesota Vikings are allowing Brett Favre to string them along. Favre has become more attention craving than Terrell Owens or Chad Ochocinco. Monday's headline was Favre's throwing motion looks good. Thank you, I really needed to hear that update. Didn't the Vikes watch the debacle that the Jets became at the end of last season? A surgery does not fix Favre throwing passes into triple coverage. The only fix for that is for Favre to lose his ego and judging by his performance this offseason it does not look like that is going anywhere.
What Were They Thinking... Tim Wakefield made it to the All-Star game for the first time at the age of 42. He deserved to pitch in the game and Tampa Bay Rays manager Joe Maddon made a mistake not sending him to the mound. I understand that the game is for home field advantage in the World Series, but it is still an All-Star game. I don't want to hear the excuse that the catchers aren't used to catching knuckleballs. One batter wouldn't have killed anyone.
What Were They Thinking... HBO this week showed all three Micky Ward-Arturo Gatti fights after the sad death of Gatti. I would love to know what was going through these two warriors heads as they pounded each others brains in for 30 rounds. They were incredibly brutal fights and unbelievable to watch. This is what boxing fans want to see and it makes you understand why the best athletes no longer participate in the sport.
What Were They Thinking... What in the world was Fox thinking with its camera angle on Barack Obama's ceremonial first pitch? I thought throughout the week the media was making way too big of a deal that he was throwing out the first pitch. I don't care whether he warms up before he goes out or not. Then to cap it off Fox decides to do a close up of Obama instead of showing the pitch, great job.

Singapore solar manufacturer Sunseap Enterprises, which won the tender to design, finance and install the 2MWp (mega-watt peak) solar system, will pay 70 percent of the startup cost of S$3.28 million, with HDB taking up the other 30 percent. The tender also allows Sunseap Enterprises to sell power generated by the solar system to Pasir-Ris Punggol Town Council. This will be pegged at a preferential rate below the current electricity tariff. Once installation is completed by mid-2012, the solar energy generated will go to power the shared facilities such as lifts, corridor and staircase lightings, and water pumps. |
Singapore now has an eco town to call its own. Punggol Eco Town, a neighbourhood in the city-state's northeastern corner, recently became a "living lab" for a total energy solutions pilot project for public housing--a first in Asia. Ten flats in a housing block have been picked in an energy-saving field test slated to run from January 2012 till 2013.
Panasonic, in collaboration with the Housing Development Board (HDB), Energy Market Authority (EMA) and Economic Development Board (EDB), is targeting to cut energy consumption by up to 75 percent. To do this, it will:
- Install photovoltaic systems to supply renewable energy to power common facilities such as the lifts, water pumps and lighting
- Introduce lithium-ion storage batteries to store excess electricity generated by the solar panels for use at night and to serve as a backup electricity generator
- Install a Home Energy Management System (HEMS[1]) to help the households on trial monitor their electricity, water and gas consumption patterns via an in-home displays and better manage their energy consumption
Success will see this test-bed rolled out for larger-scale commercial implementation.

Panasonic, which is behind the Sino-Singapore Tianjin Eco-City Project in China and Fujisawa Sustainable Smart Town Project in Japan, also announced that it will be looking to collaborate with EMA in the latter's Intelligent Energy System (IES) pilot. The IES pilot This was introduced two years ago to evaluate new applications and technologies along the smart grid as a smart grid pilot study seeking to test the feasibility of applications through the use of smart meters and smart grid technologies.
EMA's Chief Executive, Mr Chee Hong Tat, told media at the launch on 1 August that "the benefits of smart grid applications can only be fully realised if consumers are well-educated and fully engaged in how new technologies can help them".
Mr Chee also said that a smart grid allows utilities to instantly detect and locate power outages, and the IES would be instrumental in managing energy from decentralised and intermittent power sources such as the Panasonic PV and battery system to "facilitate the deployment of clean energy sources like solar energy".

Actress. Author. Playwright. Burlesque entertainer. Those are words that describe Rose Louise Hovick's life; or perhaps you know her as Gypsy Rose Lee. Despite being born in the cloudy city of Seattle, Lee, with the help of her stage mother from Hell, was destined to shine.
She shone her brightest in her life as a striptease artist, and in 1957 she wrote a memoir of her life that has since then been portrayed many times on stage and on the silver screen.
Now the entertainer's life will be portrayed once again on stage by the Beaumont Community Players (BCP) presentation of "Gypsy" starring a cast of BCP's finest, including Natalie Cardona playing the leading role of Louise (Gypsy), Ramona Young in the role of the mad-mother Rose, and introducing newcomer to the stage Thomas Hall.
Director Paula Bothe, a theater veteran who has directed her fair share of BCP plays including "The Drowsy Chaperone" and "Smokey Joe's Café." Continue reading

Fighting terrorism will be a marathon
Written by Joe Kleinsasser Tuesday, 14 May 2013 13:50
What was your reaction to the recent terrorism at the Boston Marathon?Shock?
Did you wonder why?
Did you ask, "What's this world coming to?"
Did you think, "How could anybody do something like this?"
Are you more surprised this tragedy happened or surprised that it doesn't happen more often at sporting events?
The reactions vary, but answers to these manmade tragedies are few, and it reaffirms the depravity of man.
We live in a sinful world where evil continually rears its ugly head.
Truth be told, terrorism at sporting events is relatively rare. Perhaps the most brazen and infamous act of terrorism in sports took place when Palestinian terrorists murdered 11 Israeli athletes at the 1972 Olympics in...

MHS baseball set for regional semifinals
Written by Janae Rempel Tuesday, 14 May 2013 13:48
The Marion baseball team entered the Hillsboro regional tournament as the No. 2 seed with a Heart of America league record of 7-3, 13-5 overall after dropping two games to Halstead and splitting at Inman last week."We didn't play our best baseball the last couple days," coach Roger Schroeder said. "I don't know if that was just attributed to playing so many games in so many days, but we did some things uncharacteristic of ourselves.
"We just kind of failed to make adjustments at the plate like we normally had been doing, and we didn't throw enough quality strikes.
"We didn't play bad," he said. "We just didn't take care of a lot of the little things that had got us to where we were."
