For his first full-length collection, Steven Riel has written poems that are slyly observant, provocatively honest and poignant in ways both painful and liberating.
A Natick resident, he has crafted a singular poetic voice that seems to see through everyday poses and postures. So when he writes of his younger brother�s death from AIDS, the complications of gay identity or the everyday minefield of life, readers � regardless of orientation � will hear a kindred seeker.
Reading Riel�s "Fellow odd Fellow�� is something like visiting a funhouse full of distorting mirrors and, then, stopping before the one mirror that reflects everything as it really looks.
Riel is gay but these aren�t just gay poems.
Many are about gay subjects. But first and foremost, Riel is a poet who has peeled back his own skin to reveal real and raw emotions that may be more familiar than many want to admit.
In "Outside a Jar,�� he writes so directly about loneliness, sexual longing and mortality it might make readers discover an uncomfortable common ground.
Born in Monson, Riel earned a scholarship to Wilbraham & Monson Academy, where an inspiring teacher awoke a dormant love for poetry.
As if discovering poetic approaches he�d use years later, Riel wrote his thesis on Alfred, Lord Tennyson�s use of feminine masques to explore difficult truths.
In "Fellow odd Fellow,�� Riel uses pop and gay icons like Cyndi Lauper, Lena Horne, Kitty Carlisle � a panelist on "To Tell The Truth�� � and Robert Goulet in similar ways to explore the gender masks, role playing and stereotypes about masculinity with wit and insight.
For hesitating straight readers, check out "Desperate Measures�� and watch Riel dissect�the hurtful dynamics of sibling rivalry by transforming a high school playground into the Plains of Abraham where generals Wolfe and Moncalm died during the Battle of Quebec.
At Georgetown University, Riel majored in English, expecting�to write fiction but was increasingly drawn to poetry.
"I think I write poetry because I can,�� he said. "I wanted to find a form that fit my abilities. It seems to work.��
He�s the author of three chapbooks of poetry, "How to Dream,�� "The Spirit Can Crest�� and "Postcard from P-town,�� which was chosen as runner-up for the inaugural Robin Becker Chapbook Prize.
Riel�s poems have appeared in numerous anthologies and poetry periodicals. He has earned master�s degrees in poetry and library science and works as manager of Serial Cataloging at Harvard University Library, overseeing a staff of 87.
In "Chris Evert�� Riel shapeshifts backward through time to when he was "this seventh grade sissy�� who found courage and confidence in the victories of "the perfect avenger, / a paper doll whose life had tabs / my scissors could trace.��
But in "Deathwatch,�� he writes of life�s impending end with brutal, unsentimental clarity. In a hospital room where "Mother & lover hover,�� he addresses a friend, perhaps his brother David, in a loving voice bereft of hope: "Dully your eyes stare, / & dully they shine, / hinting only of / spacious surrender, / faceless relief.��
Asked who he thought "Fellow odd Fellow�� might appeal to, Riel answered: "I think I�m good with sounds. I try to be subtle. I don�t think people want clanging bells. My poems are a mixture of silly and sad. It�s easier to deal with sadness if you can laugh along the way.��
Riel is a subtle technician with a fine ear, infusing his lines with a quiet meter that carries readers along.
He can be sly, silly, even jarring but there are very few false notes. Some readers may feel his literate introspection is too much.
Mostly, Riel is fearless and can�sometimes be a bit of a smarty pants. But he explores wounds all people feel - but rarely admit - with admirable honesty.
Readers can't ask for much more.

The Denver Broncos have dominated, and the Ravens' injury problems continue to get worse. Wide receiver Torrey Smith is out after suffering a concussion in the third quarter.
The play that Smith was injured on was typical of this game for the Ravens. It looked like Smith made a fabulous play, but it was ruled he was out of bounds. Coach John Harbaugh wasted a timeout challenging the play.
Changing offensive coordinators -- Jim Caldwell replaced the fired Cam Cameron this week -- has not helped the Ravens. With Smith hurt, the team now has another thing to worry about.Follow Gregg Rosenthal on Twitter @greggrosenthal.

Blue Hat, Green Hat - A Boynton Interactive Story

Blue Hat, Green Hat, Sandra Boynton's famous and funny book, comes alive with sound and zestily ingenious interactivity. This wonderfully clever digital book app will surprise kids and grownups alike. Turkeys may also enjoy it, if they can ever figure out how to turn the dang thing on.
Three earnest animals and one misguided turkey learn colors and clothes. Though admittedly, the turkey never quite gets the hang of it.
"I have a particular fondness for Blue Hat, Green Hat," says Sandra Boynton. "At age three, my son Devin had a surprisingly hearty laugh for a small person—a laugh that would make everyone else laugh. I created this book long ago specifically to elicit that belly-laugh from him. It was great fun to re-invent this book as an interactive e-book app, collaborating again with my endlessly clever Loud Crow friends. The digital dimension gave us so many terrific opportunities for adding theatrical flair to this spare yet decidedly Vaudeville book."
Far beyond any e-book experience, the Blue Hat, Green Hat interactive book app has all the magic and appeal of a traditional pop-up book, offering lively interactivity and nifty discovery.
• The third Sandra Boynton book app, all of them created in collaboration between Boynton Moo Media along with the award-winning developer Loud Crow Interactive. Blue Hat, Green Hat follows their wonderful top-selling debut, The Going To Bed Book app, and the glorious bestselling Moo, Baa, La La La! app.
• Touch the animals to prompt them to move and respond. Touch "OOPS" to cause a different surprise on each page. Tilt your device to watch things slide and cascade. Dress the turkey with colorful pop-in/pop-out clothes
• Boynton has redrawn and recolored the original illustrations, and also added new touch-animations, for her enormously popular book, Blue Hat, Green Hat
• Wonderful resonant and wry narration by British Invasion legend, Billy J. Kramer (acclaimed reader of The Going To Bed Book app) and sound by Boynton & Ford. Includes an original soundtrack, "William Mattel Overture," a melody for toy crank-guitar, written by Sandra Boynton, performed by Michael Ford
• Realistic page turning interactions just like the original board book
• "The Big Guy Reads It" with word highlighting to help improve reading skills
• Or "I want to read it myself" to hear individual words pronounced with the tap of a finger

He recently celebrated his fourth wedding anniversary with Beyonce Knowles, and now Jay-Z wants to ensure that every couple — gay and straight — is able to do the same.
The "Who Gon Stop Me" rapper, 42, voiced his support for same-sex marriage Monday during a Budweiser music festival press conference in Philadelphia.
"I have always thought of it as something that is still holding the country back," Jay-Z (real name: Shawn Carter) told CNN's Poppy Harlow, 30. "What people do in their own homes is their business, and you can choose to love whoever you love. That's their business. It is no different than discriminating against blacks. It's discrimination, plain and simple."
The 14-time Grammy Award winner and first-time father to daughter Blue Ivy, 5 months, joins a growing list of celebrities and politicians who are using their fame as a platform for social change; President Barack Obama, 50, recently came out in support of same-sex marriage during an interview with ABC News' Robin Roberts.
"I think it was the right thing to do," Jay-Z said of the President's history-making change of heart. "It's really not about votes. It's about people. So whether it cost him votes or not, I think it was the right thing to do as a human being." (His wife, 30, sang Etta James' "At Last" at Obama's inauguration in 2009.)
Other stars who have applauded Obama's new stance include reality star Kim Kardashian, 31, and talk show host Ellen DeGeneres, 54.
"We've never had a President so supportive of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community and today I am proud to be an American!" Kardashian blogged May 9. "I'm so happy that our country is making history and moving forward. No more living in the past!"
Echoed DeGeneres: "There have been moments in history when someone has had the courage to stand up for what they believe in and that one action changes everything. I hope that this is one of those times. It takes a brave man to take a stand like this especially in an election year. Mr. President, to you, I say, thank you, very, very much."

Vaastu shastra is an ancient science which helps one to get the natural benefits freely offered by the five basic elements of the universe in which we all live. These basic elements are Akash (SKY), Prithvi (EARTH), Paani (WATER), Agni (FIRE), and Vayu (WIND). Vastu Shastra can be applied by keeping in harmony with these basic five elements of nature. It is an edifice science that was developed by our learned people thousands of years ago. Its application today is purely architectural and its principles are based on becoming one with nature. Like astrology and palmistry it is a vast & complicated science, easily misunderstood by most people.
Most people all over the world will not think twice before spending huge amounts of cash on designing their houses and they should rightly do so. But when the house does not bring them peace and harmony and instead the ill effects of vaastu are experienced the same people consult astrologers, palmists, tarot card readers and some blame their destiny or luck.
Vaastu is essentially the art of correct settings one can place himself in such a manner as to derive maximum benefits.
The ancient relics say that Vaastu is based on two forces "positive" and "negative" which are constantly interacting with each other on the surface of the land. These forces should get disturbed whenever any structure is erected on a vacant land, to maintain a balance.
If there are more positive energies (forces) than the negative energies, the result of such a construction would yield more benefits to the inmates leading to a more successful, healthy, wealthy and peaceful life, contrary to this if the negative energies dominate the premises the effects could be negative.

World Bulletin/News Desk
A strong earthquake shook western Nicaragua on Thursday, knocking out power and phone lines in some areas of the capital Managua, a Reuters witness said, but there were no reports of fatalities or major damage.
The quake had a magnitude of 6.1, the U.S. Geological Survey said, and was very shallow at a depth of 6.2 miles (10 km). It was previously reported as having various magnitudes ranging up to 6.4.
Some residents in Managua rushed out into the streets, clearly nervous.
"There are no injuries, no loss of life so far, nor even any significant material losses," Nicaraguan government spokeswoman Rosario Murillo said on local radio, adding that the government was checking reports that two dozen homes had suffered some damage.
The earthquake struck at 2327 GMT, 19 miles (31 km) northeast of the town of Nagarote or 31 miles (50 km) north-northwest of the capital Managua, USGS added.
The Reuters witness said the quake was followed by aftershocks.

Those who argue that Republicans should embrace immigration reform are fond of telling us that Hispanics are natural conservatives. That is, I think, a dubious proposition even when applied to the social issues. But how does it hold up across the rest of the political issue spectrum? Obamacare is an excellent test case; if most Hispanics are natural conservatives, they should be instinctively suspicious of a big government power grab.
Unfortunately, that is not the case. MediaPost conducted a survey–not a political poll, but a marketing survey. The idea was to find out how Hispanics are likely to utilize the Obamacare exchanges, and how they may influence health care marketing. The results are disquieting:
Hispanic intent to enroll is largely driven by a more positive opinion of the ACA and what it can do for their families. Fifty-three percent of uninsured Hispanics surveyed "strongly agreed" that the ACA would provide them with more healthcare choices. This is in contrast to 27% of non-Hispanics. Hispanics are also almost twice as likely as non-Hispanics to believe that the ACA will make health insurance more affordable for themselves and their families (47% of Hispanics vs. 24% of non-Hispanics), and are significantly more likely than non-Hispanics to believe that the overall quality of healthcare will improve with the ACA (44% of Hispanics vs. 21% of non-Hispanics).
Those are grim numbers. More:
Our research shows that Hispanics are twice as likely as non-Hispanics to expect that the ACA will make prescription medications more affordable (43% of Hispanics vs. 21% of non-Hispanics), and, once enrolled, nearly 40% plan to use them more often. Just 27% of non-Hispanics said the same thing.
To put it gently, these are not the views of natural conservatives. Rather, they reflect an inflated expectation of government, and what it can do for you, compared with the rest of the population. I don't know why this is true; maybe it is a legacy of statist tendencies in Mexico and other Latin countries. In any event, these data certainly don't support the idea that it will be politically advantageous for Republicans (or conservatives) to create millions more Hispanic voters.

The COS is part of CMHC's program of work on better understanding the role and prevalence of investors in Canadian housing markets. The report includes survey insights on what motivates condo purchases, how long owners hold on to their units, and the borrower profile of condominium owners whose primary dwelling is a freehold or condominium unit but who also own at least one secondary unit that is a condominium. Due to survey design and cost considerations, the Condo Owners Survey does not cover foreign investors, corporate investors, and Canadian households that own condominium units in Toronto and Vancouver but do not reside in these CMAs.

SensorMount indicator
The tool to monitor the mounting of SensorMount bearings
The SensorMount Indicator TMEM 1500 provides a direct reading of the fit of a SensorMount bearing mounted on a tapered seating. The SensorMount indicator is only compatible with SKF bearings, which are fitted with the SensorMount sensor. These bearings from SKF have designation suffixes ZE, ZEB, or ZEV, e.g. ZE 241/500 ECAK30/W33. The SensorMount indicator provides a numeric value, which guides the user in achieving a reliable bearing fit.SKF bearings fitted with the SensorMount system can also be mounted on adapter sleeves, withdrawal sleeves and hollow shafts. The material composition of the shaft has no effect on the proper operation of the SensorMount system.

The Senate advanced legislation Thursday adding workplace and other protections to victims of domestic violence along with another bill explicitly extending parental leave rights to fathers as well as mothers.
The Senate advanced legislation Thursday adding workplace and other protections to victims of domestic violence along with another bill explicitly extending parental leave rights to fathers as well as mothers.
The domestic violence bill (S 853) requires employers with 50 or more employees to provide up to 15 days of leave per year for a victimized employee to take time to deal with court, housing, health or other issues related to the abuse.
Additionally, the bill prohibits the use of an "accord and satisfaction" action in domestic violence cases. Those motions are generally used between two parties in a fight, where the aggressor compensates the victim, and in domestic violence cases defense attorneys can pressure victims into such agreements, said Sen. Cynthia Stone Creem, a Newton Democrat who sponsored the legislation.
"Sometimes the victim being a victim is afraid to sign that, and this would remove that ability from the area of domestic abuse," Creem told the News Service. She said the legislation would not prohibit victims from deciding against cooperating with the prosecution. Accord and satisfaction agreements allow the judge to dismiss the case over the prosecutor's objections.
"They could still say they don't want to go forward and then it would be up to the DA what they want to do, but they can't use this technical term that's been so successfully used in criminal cases," Creem said. She said without that option for the defense, advocates believe more victims will go forward with cases.
The Senate included other domestic violence items to the bill, such as a measure Sen. Katherine Clark, a Melrose Democrat, has backed with the support of law enforcement to create a new crime of strangulation and strangulation with serious bodily injury, the latter of which carries a prison sentence of up to 10 years.
According to Senate leadership, current law does not include a first offense for a charge of domestic assault and battery, making it "unenforceable." The bill creates a first offense.
The Senate adopted a proposal from Sen. Bruce Tarr, a Gloucester Republican, prohibiting courts from granting visitation rights to a parent who conceived the child through rape, and Tarr withdrew another amendment that would have directed authorities to collaborate with neighboring states on a multi-state compact for restraining orders.
The bill also boosts the penalties for subsequent violations of a restraining order and requires people who have been convicted of domestic violence to complete a batterer's intervention program, and pay a $300 fine when enrolling in such a program.
"Victims of domestic violence continue to face barriers in their recovery and protecting themselves from future attacks, and we have an obligation to change that," Senate President Therese Murray, a Plymouth Democrat, said in a statement. "This bill will increase the rights and protections of victims and we hope to see this bill taken up by the House in a timely manner."
The attorney general would be in charge of enforcing the workplace rights sections of the domestic violence bill.
After passing Creem's bill, the Senate moved onto legislation backed by Sen. Patricia Jehlen, a Somerville Democrat, which would put gender-neutral language into the Massachusetts Maternity Leave Act. Jehlen's bill (S 865) would also require employers to state in writing if they plan to terminate a person who is taking an extended parental leave.
Jehlen said the bill would "bring this law into compliance with the Constitution."
Creem said the Senate has previously passed the employment leave provisions of the domestic violence bill, and had not previously passed the provisions prohibiting "accord and satisfaction" in domestic violence cases.
Spurred by the shocking murder of Jennifer Martel over the summer, House Speaker Robert DeLeo has said the lower chamber plans to address domestic violence this year. Martel's boyfriend, Jared Remy, son of the Red Sox announcer Jerry Remy, had recently been arrested for a domestic assault when he allegedly stabbed Martel to death.
"I certainly hope it gets taken up," Creem said, of the legislation. She said, "I don't think we're ever going to eradicate domestic violence."

If you want to raise money for something these days, the answer often is: Ask the public for it.
Crowdfunding sites such as Kickstarter, Indiegogo and GoFundMe have become the go-to resource for projects as diverse as starting a business, turning an invention into reality or funding a personal goal or need.Talked-about tech—including the Pebble smartwatch and the vibrating HAPIfork—got a start on crowdfunding sites, and after the Boston Marathon bombings, friends and family of victims used such sites to raise money to help with medical bills.
Globally, more than a million successfully funded campaigns raised $2.7 billion in 2012, up 81 percent from the previous year, according to research firm Massolution. This year, it expects projects could clear $5 billion.
While there are plenty of projects that fall into the mainstream, others are more … unusual. Think potty parity, pizza and a salt-loaded rifle for pest control.
In fact, that's part of the crowdfunding appeal. Sites are a cheap way to gauge the market for a business or gadget, said Jack Vonder Heide, president of Technology Briefing Centers. "If people think it's a stupid idea, they're going to tell you very quickly," he said. Or campaigners might discover they've tapped into a surprise hit.
GoFundMe, Indiegogo and Kickstarter reported that these seven projects are among the more unique they've come across:

The Huffington Post has had several very insightful opinion pieces on politics recently. This piece is an analysis on how the Republican policy positions are so mutable. Abrams demonstrates great insight in his analysis of the Republican policy motives as being purely obstructive and corporatist, rather than attempts to create good policy.
DISCLAIMER: I do not attempt to be polite or partisan in my articles, merely truthful. If you are a partisan and believe that the letter after the name of a politician is more important then their policies, I suggest that you stop reading and leave this site immediately--there is nothing here for you.
Modern American politics are corrupt, hyper-partisan, and gridlocked, yet the mainstream media has failed to cover this as anything but politics as usual. This blog allows me to post my views, analysis and criticisms which are too confrontational for posting in mainstream outlets.

It's not just me -- "Duke" does a lot of business with Dell. A good campus rep that you can call and talk to and who will drop the Windowscrap from systems that "always" come with Windows via their browser interface go a long way. Don't get me wrong -- I'm not advertising Dell. If anything, I'd advertise Penguin as I like their nodes better than Dell's. I'm just stating that it isn't fair to cross off Dell from any consideration because there is something "crazy" about buying from Dell. I buy stuff from Dell all the time. Lots of departments at Duke, including physics, get lots of stuff from Dell (not usually cluster nodes, but we even have a few of those and don't AUTOMATICALLY refuse to consider them). I've had mixed experiences with Dell. As Greg pointed out somewhat wryly, Dell laptops haven't been absolutely reliable -- IBMs in the past have often been better built (although my M1530 seems rock solid, compared to my past latitude and inspirons -- even the hinge is finally "firm" instead of flimsy and compares well with my lenovo). But Dell has fixed them, quickly and with minimal hassle. Overall, I'd give Dell a B in terms of hardware quality averaged over many years -- not terrible, not the best (where Penguin would get an easy A). It would get an A in terms of service, where Penguin also gets an A although it is really hard to tell when nothing really breaks. Dells are a bit cheaper, IIRC from my last comparison, per expected compute operation. So one is left judging the marginal differential cost of slightly more reliable hardware (saving human time and hassle when it doesn't break) vs slightly cheaper hardware that MIGHT break slightly more often. Not a knee jerk decision. > I _do_ wish it was a bit more common to have onsite spares. not sure why > vendors (HP at least) don't like to do this. maybe just that it might > get kicked around or otherwise abused... Partly this is a choice of the site admin. Some things we "have" to keep onsite, because e.g. disks now have to be formally destroyed by the gods of privacy instead of returned to vendors so swap-out replacements are forbidden anyway. Others we keep onsite even though they are warrantied because a spare is cheaper and faster than four hour response service (even if we keep both on e.g. mission critical servers). Cluster nodes we usually don't, simply because we'd use the spares anyway as long as we had rackspace, right? Why keep idle systems hot or on a shelf? rgb > > regards, mark hahn. > _______________________________________________ > Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf at beowulf.org > To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit > http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf > -- Robert G.

Best known as the third baseman banned from organized baseball for his knowledge of the 1919 World Series fix in which he did not participate, Buck Weaver spent most of his nine-year major league career as a shortstop, only converting full-time to the third sack in 1917. Initially a right-handed batter, Weaver learned to switch hit after a poor rookie season, and from there he made his mark as one of the American League's most resourceful players, twice leading the circuit in sacrifices, and using his excellent range to reach balls that escaped most of his peers. Nelson Algren once described Weaver as a "territorial animal...who guarded the spiked sand around third like his life." Despite his competitiveness, the infectious Weaver, nicknamed "The Ginger Kid," was also one of the most popular players of his day, known for his ever-smiling, jug-eared face that mimicked a Halloween Jack. Throughout the 1910s Weaver steadily improved his game, enjoying his best season in 1920, just before he was permanently banished from the game he loved. An optimist by nature, Weaver spent the rest of his life fighting to restore his name.
George Daniel Weaver was born on August 18, 1890 in Pottstown, Pennsylvania, the fourth of five children of Daniel and Sarah Weaver. Located 41 miles northwest of Philadelphia, Pottstown had become one of the centers for the state's emerging iron industry, and Daniel Weaver supported his family by working in one of the area's iron furnaces. By late 19th century standards, the heavily-unionized iron industry paid good wages, and George Weaver's childhood was a contented one. Not very interested in school, Weaver turned his attention to baseball, where his energy and natural athletic talent were noticed at an early age by fellow players, coaches and scouts. Veteran minor leaguer Curt McGann was so fascinated by Weaver's passionate style of play and his upbeat, positive attitude, he nicknamed him "Buck," a name in Chicago that would soon be synonymous for sympathy.
Buck began his professional career in 1908 with Mt. Carmel (Pennsylvania) of the outlaw Atlantic League, batting approximately .243 (the stats are incomplete) and splitting his time between shortstop and second base. After a year of semipro ball, in 1910 Weaver joined Northampton (Massachusetts) of the Connecticut State League, where he caught the eye of Philadelphia Phillies manager Red Dooin, who signed Buck to a $175 per month contract and farmed him out to York (Pennsylvania) of the Tri-State League. In the fall of 1910, super-scout Ted Sullivan of the Chicago White Sox bought Buck's contract for $750 and assigned him to the San Francisco Seals of the Pacific Coast League.
Separated from home for the first time, Weaver enjoyed an excellent season with the Seals in 1911, batting .282 in 182 games and drawing praise for his defensive skills. The performance was good enough to elicit an invitation to the spring training of the Chicago White Sox in 1912, but just as Buck made his way to the White Sox camp in Waco, Texas, tragedy struck: his mother succumbed to illness. It was then that Buck faced a tough personal choice: attend his mother's funeral or attend spring training. A telegram from his father persuaded Buck to go to camp instead of returning for the funeral.
Upon his arrival in Waco, Weaver initially told no one of his mother's passing. When the Chicago Tribune learned what had happened, the newspaper published a feature article on the young recruit, applauding his grit. "Not a man on the squad displayed as much enthusiasm," Tribune reporter Sam Weller observed. "He has confessed that later when he was alone in his room he couldn't help but weep over the matter. However, he knew he could do no good by going home and he was determined to make good as a ball player and couldn't afford to quit the training squad."
Despite the pain engendered by his mother's death, Weaver impressed the White Sox with a superlative camp, winning the starting shortstop job out of spring training. Irv Sanborn dubbed Weaver the "Ginger Kid" after Buck gamely played with an injured left hand wrapped in bandages. "Buck hasn't a thing against him but his age," Weller observed. "He is only twenty years old now and lacks only in experience. In his fielding he looks every bit as fast as [Donie] Bush of Detroit."
In fact, as Weaver's performance during the 1912 season demonstrated, Buck wasn't as ready for the big leagues as the White Sox hoped or the beat writers imagined. Playing in 147 games, Weaver batted just .224 with nine walks, and led the league with 71 errors at shortstop. Knowing his position on the Chicago White Sox roster was not secure, he spent the entire off-season learning how to become a switch hitter. Heading into the 1913 season with new ammunition, Buck was able to raise his batting average from .247 to .272 in the last month of the season. Despite his excellent range, Weaver's defense remained problematic, as he again led the league with 70 errors, though he also led the circuit in putouts and double plays.
Following the 1913 season, Buck joined the world tour organized by Charles Comiskey and John McGraw, one of only a few White Sox players to make the trip. The touring party traveled 38,000 miles over a span of 17 weeks, not returning to Chicago until the following March. The lengthy trip may have sapped Buck's strength for the 1914 season, as his batting average dipped to .246, with a .279 OBP. Despite this poor showing, Buck had become the leader of the White Sox and was appointed team captain after Harry Lord jumped to the Federal League.
In a 1915 poll of Chicago White Sox fans, Weaver was voted the most popular member of the team, but the next two seasons would be rough ones for him. After spending most of the spring of 1915 recovering from surgery to remove his adenoids and tonsils, Weaver batted .268 and scored 83 runs. The following season, however, his batting average dipped to an abysmal .227, and Weaver began splitting his time in the field between shortstop and third base. At the end of the season, Buck filed for bankruptcy when his Chicago billiard hall operation went broke. At the time, the newspapers reported that he had no other assets. Like most of the rest of his teammates, Weaver's baseball salary paled in comparison to his American League peers.
Nonetheless, following the 1916 season Weaver, along with teammates Eddie Collins and Joe Jackson, publicly promised owner Charles Comiskey they would capture the 1917 American League pennant. This they did, thanks in large part to a superlative season from Weaver, one of the best of his career. Switched to third base to make room for new shortstop Swede Risberg, Weaver proved an instant sensation at his new position, displaying excellent range, an adeptness at scooping up bunts down the third base line, and leading the league in fielding percentage. "In stopping men coming around the bases, going after a fly ball, and digging in for hard chances Buck has few equals in the major leagues," Baseball Magazine observed after the season.
In that year's World Series, Weaver batted an impressive .333, though he committed four errors in the field. In the post-game celebration that followed Chicago's championship-clinching victory in Game Six, Buck "danced around in a manner which indicated he had completely lost himself," the _Chicago Tribune_reported. "He tossed his cap into the air and followed with his sweater and a dozen bats and three or four hats that belonged to the spectators, and if there had been anything within reach it, too, would have gone into the air."
The war-shortened 1918 season was a successful one for Buck, as he returned to shortstop and batted an even .300, the first time he crossed that threshold in his major league career. At season's end, Weaver went to Beloit, Wisconsin, where he worked as a mechanic in the Fairbanks-Morse manufacturing plant and played for their semipro baseball team. The experience was an eye-opener for him, as he found that he made more money for the plant than he had earned playing for the White Sox. As the 1919 season approached, Buck demanded a raise from Comiskey, and negotiated a three-year-contract worth $7,250.
For the 1919 season, Weaver returned to third base and enjoyed another outstanding season, smashing a career-high 45 extra base hits and batting .296. As the White Sox surged toward the pennant, some of Buck's teammates, disgruntled over the shabby treatment they had received at the hands of Comiskey and looking for a big payday, began conspiring to throw the upcoming World Series. That September, Weaver attended two meetings regarding the proposed fix. Buck was skeptical that the scheme could work, telling his teammates and the gamblers present that throwing the World Series "couldn't be done."
Weaver approached the World Series unsure of his teammates' intentions. Rumors were rampant that the fix was on but Buck wanted no part of it. Declining the advances of his crooked teammates, Weaver played his best in the Series, batting .324 with four doubles and four runs scored in Chicago's eight game loss to the Cincinnati Reds. In the wake of the Sox's stunning defeat, sportswriters suspicious of the outcome alluded to the role of the seven conspirators, but often went out of their way to praise Weaver's efforts. "Though they are hopeless and heartless, the White Sox have a hero," the Cincinnati Post declared. "He is George Weaver, who plays and fights at third base. Day after day Weaver has done his work and smiled. In spite of the certain fate that closed about the hopes of the Sox, Weaver smiled and scrapped. One by one his mates gave up. Weaver continued to grin and fight harder."
Weaver's 1920 season, which would prove to be his last in the major leagues, was also his finest. Over 151 games, Buck posted career highs in batting average (.331), on base percentage (.365), slugging percentage (.420), runs (102), hits (208) and doubles (34). Still only 29 years old and a nine-year veteran, Weaver was at the top of his game, leading Chicago in its fight for a second consecutive pennant. But it all came crashing down on September 28, when gambler Billy Maharg alleged in the press that eight members of the White Sox had thrown the Series. Immediately after Maharg's allegations were published, Comiskey had suspension letters hand delivered to the eight accused players, including Weaver.
When Weaver was served his suspension letter by White Sox employee Norris "Tip" O'Neal, he instantly marched to Comiskey's office and declared his innocence. He was the only player of the eight accused to do so. Collyer's Eye later reported that Comiskey promised Weaver -- separate from the other seven players -- that he would be reinstated to baseball if he was acquitted in the Cook County trial.
Though Buck requested a separate trial from the other seven players, he was forced to sit with his Black Sox teammates during the proceedings. Judge Hugo Friend, presiding over the trial, all but declared Buck innocent by saying he wouldn't allow a conviction to stand against him if the jury ruled that way. Three hours of deliberation on August 2, 1921 returned a verdict of not guilty for all players accused. The following day, the new commissioner of baseball, Kenesaw Mountain Landis, released his famous statement banning all eight of the accused for life. One clause in the statement was specifically targeted at Weaver: "...no player who sits in conference with a bunch of crooked players and gamblers where the ways and means of throwing games are discussed and does not promptly tell his club about it will ever play professional baseball."
Unlike the other seven Black Sox, Weaver had not accepted any money to throw the Series, and there is no doubt that he played the games to win. His "crime" was simply his silence, and in this respect there was little to distinguish Weaver's actions from others who had also known about the fix and yet had done nothing to stop it.
But there was a method to Landis's cruelty. By making an example of Weaver, Landis sent a message to the rest of organized baseball that any player who learned of a fix was guilty in the eyes of baseball unless he immediately reported it. The effect of this policy is readily apparent: prior to Weaver's banishment, baseball authorities usually only discovered game-fixing schemes after they had already occurred. After Weaver's suspension, some attempted conspiracies were brought to light before they ever unfolded on the field, thanks to the honesty of players frightened by the Weaver precedent. For instance, in 1922 New York Giants pitcher Phil Douglas was banned for life after Cardinals outfielder Les Mann reported Douglas's efforts to extract money from the Cardinals in exchange for Douglas abandoning the Giants. In 1924, Jimmy O'Connell and Cozy Dolan, two other members of the Giants, were banned for life after they tried to give Phillies shortstop Heinie Sand $500 to throw a game. Sand immediately reported the bribe offer. In this light, Weaver's suspension, and the object lesson it imparted to the rest of organized baseball for years to come, was one of Landis's most successful moves as commissioner.
All of this was small consolation to Weaver, his family, and the legion of Chicago fans who wanted to see him reinstated. Within one year of the 1921 verdict banning Buck from baseball for life, he submitted the first of many petitions to Commissioner Landis. Weaver was turned away every time. He collected the signatures of 14,000 fans, hired a New York City attorney, and tried to get the courts to intervene. It was all to no avail.
Buck was the only Black Sox player to remain in Chicago after his banishment, where he lived with his wife, the former Helen Cook. After spending several years playing in the semipro circuit, Buck took a job with the city of Chicago as a day painter. He also tried his hand in the drugstore business. With his pharmacist brother-in-law William Scanlon, he opened six drugstores on Chicago's South Side. Noticing Buck's business sense, Charles Walgreen, whose drugstore empire was about to skyrocket, asked Scanlon and Weaver to join him as junior partners. They declined the invitation. After rejecting Walgreen's offer, the depression hit and Scanlon and Weaver were forced to close their stores.
Into his old age, Weaver continued to pursue every avenue to clear his name and return to the good graces of organized baseball. His final petition came in 1953, when he again requested reinstatement from Commissioner Ford Frick. In the letter, now prominently displayed at the Baseball Hall of Fame, Buck pleaded, "You know...the only thing we have left in this world is our judge and the 12 jurors and they found me not guilty. They do some funny things in baseball."
Weaver received no response.
Shortly before his death, Buck was interviewed by author James T. Farrell about his banishment. The good-natured man who had once exuded joy and optimism in all he did had clearly been embittered by his ordeal. "A murderer even serves his sentence and is let out," Buck observed. "I got life." On January 31, 1956, Weaver died of a heart attack at the age of 65; his body was found on West 71st Street by a Chicago policeman. Survived by his wife, Weaver was buried in Chicago's Mt. Hope Cemetery.

KABUL - U.S. Defence Secretary Leon Panetta arrived in Afghanistan on Wednesday for an unannounced visit to consult with top commanders and President Hamid Karzai.
The visit comes at a difficult juncture in the Western coalition's efforts to shift more security responsibilities to Afghan forces so the combat mission can end in December 2014.
While security has generally improved lately, the Afghan government's ability to effectively govern and to root out corruption is in great doubt. Peace talks with the Taliban are on a back burner.
Earlier Wednesday in Kuwait, Panetta said President Barack Obama will decide in the next few weeks how many U.S. troops will stay in Afghanistan after the combat mission ends.
Panetta did not reveal what options Obama is considering, but officials have said he may settle on a figure between 6,000 and 10,000 troops. There currently are about 66,000 U.S. troops in Afghanistan.
The post-2014 mission is expected to focus on counterterrorism and advising Afghan security forces.
Before flying to Afghanistan, Panetta spoke to about 100 U.S. service members inside an aircraft hangar at a desert base west of Kuwait City. He thanked them for their service and emphasized that the U.S. is winding down its involvement in lengthy wars.

I was reading Michael Loewe's book 'Bing' and something he said about punishment stood out to me.
Bing, who is a magistrate by this point, says to a criminal ''your hair will come off so that it will never grow back again'. How did they achieve that? When they say taking off all his hair are we talking about leaving him with stubble or him being completely bald?
Also it mentions that depending on your social status you might be tattooed. What would this tattoos have depicted? Presumably they were on the criminal's face?

News Release
Joslin Diabetes Center-led Study Indicates Insulin Receptors Play a Critical Role in Promoting Islet Growth to Overcome Insulin Resistance
Findings may lead to treatments that enhance beta cell growth
BOSTON – April 2, 2007 – A new Joslin-led study has identified the insulin receptor as an important protein that promotes islet cell growth in mice whose bodies are unable to use insulin properly, or are insulin resistant, a precursor to type 2 diabetes.
Since the body's natural response to insulin resistance is to increase insulin secretion from the pancreas and grow more islet cells, also known as beta cells, harnessing this growth response could lead to new treatments for type 2 diabetes. The study appears in the early online edition of this week's Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
"The failure to grow more functional beta cells (also called compensatory islet cell growth response) leads to overt diabetes," said Rohit N. Kulkarni, M.D., Ph.D., Investigator at Joslin Diabetes Center and Assistant Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School, who led the study. "If we can identify the key signaling proteins critical for the islet cell growth response, we can develop potential therapeutic targets to enhance the growth of beta cells."
There are two proteins that mediate the effects of growth factors in beta cells, the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas: insulin receptor, a protein that mediates the action of insulin, and IGF-1 receptor, another protein that closely resembles the insulin receptor and mediates the action of insulin-like-growth factor (IGF-I), a hormone and growth factor. These two receptors have been a major focus of research studies by Dr. Kulkarni and others at Joslin Diabetes Center who want to better understand beta cell growth and functioning so that these essential cells can be increased in people with diabetes.
In type 2 diabetes, the body doesn't produce enough insulin and/or is unable to use insulin properly (insulin resistance). This form of diabetes usually occurs in people who are over 40, overweight, and have a family history of diabetes, although today it is increasingly occurring in younger people, including adolescents. For reasons that are still unknown, islet cells malfunction in people with type 2 diabetes and their bodies are unable to compensate. By investigating the cellular mechanisms that affect islet cell growth and development, Joslin researchers hope to improve the process to better treat type 2 diabetes, the most common form of diabetes.
This study investigated whether insulin receptors in the beta cell play a key role in promoting their growth as a response to overcome insulin resistance. A state of transient insulin resistance occurs naturally during pregnancy and puberty, but without causing diabetes in most people because the beta cells are able to grow and secrete more insulin to easily overcome the insulin resistance. It is when the beta cells fail to grow and secrete more insulin in these states that overt diabetes develops.
Two mouse models were used in the study. In the first model, an insulin-resistant mouse was crossed with a mouse lacking insulin receptors in the beta cell. The resulting offspring had insulin resistance with no receptors in the beta cell. In spite of their insulin resistance, the mice didn't show an appropriate growth response in the islets because the beta cells lacked insulin receptors. "This provided genetic evidence that insulin receptors are important for the islet cell growth response to insulin resistance," said Dr. Kulkarni.
In the second part of the study, researchers examined the role of the two related receptors–insulin and IGF-1. They used two mouse models–beta-cell-specific insulin receptor knockouts (beta-IRKO), which lack insulin receptors in beta cells, and IGF-1 receptor knockout (beta-IGF1RKO), which lack IGF-1 receptors in beta cells. Both these mouse models were then compared to a control group of mice normally expressing both insulin and IGF-1 receptors in their beta cells. All three groups were placed on a high-fat diet to induce insulin resistance.
The researchers assessed the beta cell growth response in the pancreas: the beta-IRKO mice failed to show the growth of islet cells while the control and beta-IGF1RKO mice did exhibit this growth response. "The results clearly showed that it is the insulin receptor – not the IGF-1 receptor – that is critical for the islet cell growth response to insulin resistance," said Dr. Kulkarni.
Joslin researchers are working on a follow up study that aims to identify the proteins that control the signaling pathway. "We are excited about the possibilities to make further progress in this area," Kulkarni said.
Funding for the study was provided by the National Institutes of Health, the Harvard Stem Cell Institute and the Adler and Iacocca Foundations.
Other researchers participating in the study include: Terumasa Okada, M.D., Ph.D., Chong Wee Liew, Ph.D., Jiang Hu, M.D., Charlotte Hinault, Ph.D., M. Dodson Michael, Ph.D., and Catherine Yin, B.S., Research Division, Joslin Diabetes Center and Department of Medicine, Harvard Medical School; Jan Krützfeldt, M.D., and Markus Stoffel, M.D., Ph.D., Laboratory of Metabolic Diseases, Rockefeller University; and Martin Holzenberger, M.D., Ph.D., Inserm U515, Hôpital Saint-Antoine, Paris, France.

March 4, 2014
COLUMBUS, Ohio – Junior midfielder Jennifer Porretto tied her career high with four points, while sophomore Cian Dabrowski scored a season-best three goals to help the Ohio State women's lacrosse team defeat Louisville, 12-11, Tuesday afternoon at Ohio Stadium. With the victory, the Buckeyes (3-3) improve to 3-0 at home in 2014, snapping the Cardinals' four-game win streak.
"I thought we stepped up to the challenge today against a great Louisville team," head coach Alexis Venechanos said. "We had different people make plays for us at different times and we held possession when we needed to. I thought our draws were fantastic and there are some things we need to clean up, but overall, I thought this was a great victory for our program."
Porretto, a native of Smithtown, N.Y., scored two goals in the first half and added a goal and an assist in the second half en route to the team's third home win. Dabrowski went 2-for-2 on free position shots in the win vs. the Cardinals on a clear Columbus afternoon in the Horseshoe. The contest is the first of three-consecutive games for the Buckeyes in Ohio Stadium. Ohio State improves to 5-1 all-time vs. Louisville.
Poretto scored the team's first two goals of the game, but Louisville was able to jump out to a 6-2 advantage with less than 14 minutes remaining in the first half. However, the Scarlet and Gray were able to go on a four-goal run to tie it at 6-6 heading into halftime. Dabrowski found the back of the net at 12:25 on her first free position to make it 6-3, while senior Kaila Gottlick, who tallied three points vs. the Cardinals took it the distance of the field for the unassisted score at 7:58 to make it a two-goal game.
Senior Katie Chase scored her 10th goal of the season at 4:39 to cut the Cardinal lead to one goal, 6-5. Junior Jackie Cifarelli then sent a perfectly-timed pass in front of net to Mary Kate Facchina at 3:09 to tie the contest, 6-6. Cifarelli now has 19 assists this year, which is second-most in the nation.
After halftime, Louisville scored back-to-back goals to jump out to an 8-6 lead. Porretto scored her fourth goal of the contest on an unassisted score at 27:08 to make it 8-7, while Dabrowski tied it 9-9, after scoring at 16:53 and 14:01, respectively. Dabrowski now has seven goals this year – one shy of tying her season total from 2013.
Chase and Cifarelli connected for the team's 11th goal at 7:47 followed by junior Kelsea Ayers, who made it a three-goal contest when she scored off an assist from Porretto at 3:16.
The Cardinals made it a close finish following two goals at 2:41 and 1:13, respectively, to make it 12-11. However, offsetting penalties in the Ohio State zone forced a jump ball situation. Junior defender Taylor Donahue was able to get her stick on the ball before Gottlick grabbed the groundball and advanced it to the Louisville territory as time expired on the clock. Sophomore Christine Easton had a solid performance at midfield, collecting a game-high seven draw controls.
"I thought we played with a lot of guts in those last two minutes being a man down and had to play through the penalty which was something we haven't deal with this year," Venechanos said.
Overall, Ohio State held a 15-10 advantage in draw controls, while having a 20-17 advantage in groundballs. Both teams notched 20 shots. Junior goalie Tori DeScenza improves to 3-3 this year, collecting five saves vs. the Cardinals.
The Buckeyes return to Ohio State at Noon Sunday when they face No. 4 Northwestern to open ALC action. As always, admission is free.

CHICAGO -- Bally Total Fitness, Chicago, will close 26 clubs by June 26 after it canceled several leases with landlords across the country. The closures are part of a restructuring deal that will allow Bally to emerge from Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.
A majority of the clubs will close by June 23, with the rest closing over the following three days, says Larry Larsen, Bally spokesperson.
"As part of the reorganization process, we evaluate all of our leases at current locations and tried to negotiate with our landlords to the terms of those leases," Larsen says. "Where we couldn't come to terms, we are ending those leases."
The 26 clubs that will soon shut down brings the total number of clubs that have closed since Bally filed for bankruptcy in December to 47. The first 21 clubs that closed after the filing—including two that closed last month in the Dayton, OH, area—are part of a review of Bally's real estate portfolio, Larsen says. After the current round of closings, Bally will have around 300 clubs in operation.
Two Bally clubs will close in the Kansas City, MO area. The Indian Creek club that will close in Overland Park, KS, will become a Midtown Athletic Club, says Steven Schwartz, CEO of TCA Holdings, which operates Midtown Athletic Clubs. Midtown currently owns the building that includes the Bally club and a Midtown Tennis Club.
"We are going to be reopening the location on July 1 as part of a Midtown Athletic Club, expanding our Midtown Tennis Club with the addition of fitness," Schwartz says. "We're hoping all the members who really enjoyed the Indian Creek location decide to stay with us."
The state most affected by the closings is Texas. The Dallas-Fort Worth area will lose six clubs, and Houston will lose three clubs. The New York, Boston, Seattle and Indianapolis areas will lose two clubs each. The remaining clubs that will close are in the Atlanta, Chicago, Los Angeles, Cleveland, Portland, OR, Charlotte, NC, and Hartford, CT, markets. Bally is not moving out of any markets entirely, Larsen says.
Members of the clubs that are closing will be receiving complimentary upgrades worth $250 that allows them to use any Bally nationwide. Members also can call 888-210-4725 for more information.
Under Bally's restructuring plan, which was filed June 10 in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in New York, Bally's senior lenders, including J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. and Anchorage Advisors LLC, will provide financing and cut Bally's debt by at least $660 million. Secured lenders who are owed $242 million will get 94 percent of the reorganized company's equity. Three percent of the equity will be given to management, and the remaining 3 percent will go to pay noteholders and unsecured creditors, according to the plan.
JP Morgan and Anchorage Advisors, which are providing a $39 million loan to finance the restructuring, will essentially become the new owners of Bally, although sources say both companies could sell their stakes once they recoup their losses. JP Morgan will receive a 50.5 percent stake in the company, and Anchorage Advisors will receive a 33.7 percent stake, according to court documents.
A hearing is set for July 15 in bankruptcy court. The agreement requires court approval by July 30 and plan confirmation by Sept. 15.
"Bally is poised to exit Chapter 11 later this summer, and our future looks extremely bright," Bally CEO Michael Sheehan said in a statement sent to Club Industry's Fitness Business Pro. "The reorganized Bally will be a stronger, leaner organization with a healthy balance sheet and working capital that can be deployed to fund new club development and improvements, as well as important technology enhancements, all of which will help Bally attract and retain members. We are very excited about the opportunity for Bally to grow and enhance our brand from this point forward."
Larsen says Bally plans to open at least one new club later this year and is evaluating additional locations in 2010 and beyond.
Bally's December filing, in which it listed assets of $1.16 billion and debts of $1.58 billion, was the second time in the span of 17 months that the company had sought Chapter 11 protection. Bally emerged from its first bankruptcy in October 2007 under the control of Harbinger Capital Partners, one of Bally's shareholders, which purchased the company for $233.6 million.
The names and the locations of the Bally clubs that will close by June 26 are:
Arlington (Arlington, TX)
Mayfair (Hurst, TX)
Turtle Creek II (Dallas)
Ridgemar Mall (Fort Worth, TX)
Richardson II (Richardson, TX)
