What is Syphilis
Syphilis is a chronic bacterial infection by the bacterium Treponema Pallidum and is transmitted through sexual contact. If left undiagnosed and untreated, syphilis can eventually cause damage to the brain, nerves, eyes, heart, blood vessels, liver, bones, and joints.
80% of sexually transmitted infections are asymptomatic (do not display any symptoms), however, if symptoms do occur, they are likely to present themselves within two weeks of infection. Symptoms of sexually transmitted infections may include:
- Painful urination
- Pain during sexual intercourse
- Rash on the genitals and/or anus
- Itching or irritation on the genitals and/or anus
- Unusual lumps or bumps around the genitals and/or anus
- Change in color of the male or female discharge
- Abnormal discharge in terms of smell, consistency or volume
- Strong vaginal odor
- Painful erections
You should wait a minimum of 3 weeks from the time of sexual intercourse before taking your test. Sexually transmitted infections can take a period of time to become detectable, and you should wait to ensure an accurate result.
You should get tested if:
- You have become sexually active
- You have had unprotected sex
- You are experiencing symptoms of a sexually transmitted infection
- You are entering into a new sexual relationship
- You have received a notification from a previous partner that they are infected (STIs can remain dormant for years or take up to three weeks to become detectible.)

Know Your Sexual Health
Chlamydia is the most common STI worldwide. In the U.S. there are 4-8 million new cases of chlamydia each year.
Gonorrhoea is the second most common STI reported in the U.S. The incidence of Gonorrhoea is most prevalent amongst those aged 20-24.
Gardnerella is the most common bacterial infection worldwide. Gardnerella is responsible for bacterial vaginosis (BV). BV is the leading cause of abnormal vaginal odor and discharges in females aged between 15 and 44.
70 million people have been infected with H.I.V since the beginning of the epidemic in 1981. Today 60% of people do not know their status.
Herpes Simplex I most commonly causes cold sores and genital herpes. 80% of the population has herpes simplex I. It causes 40% of genital herpes cases.
Herpes Simplex II: 11% of the global population has herpes simplex II. Herpes can be passed through saliva and skin to skin contact. The majority of herpes I and II infections are symptomless.
Trichomoniasis is more common in women and WSW (women who have sex with women) than men. 70% of people who have trichomoniasis will not display symptoms.
Syphilis is the most common STI among gay and bisexual men. There has been a 14% increase in the global incidence of syphilis since 2014.

Outsource to China
China has recently emerged as one of the favored locations for business process outsourcing. This is of course due to its huge, well-educated human resources with rapidly improving English skills. In addition, the Chinese government has gone all out in support of the BPO industry with attractive tax and other financial incentives as well as the development of 10 outsourcing bases or zones where infrastructure and other support can be focused.
Various companies have already outsourced to China. Improvements in scale, capability and overall amount has put China among the top locations for outsourcing. Other popular outsourcing countries such as India and the Philippines already work hand-in-hand with Chinese companies to provide them with additional support for major tasks.
China's Ministry of Commerce continues to support this outsourcing venture. As more international businesses penetrate China's booming market, expect outsourcing to become a key service from this country.

Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer was paid a $1 million bonus for her first five and a half months on the job, according to an SEC filing.
She's eligible for a $2 million bonus each year, but since she only worked half the year, she only gets half the bonus.
Yahoo's stock is up 46 percent since she took over. While Yahoo's earnings may not reflect big changes, Mayer has tried to change the culture at Yahoo.
- She overhauled the executive ranks.
- She gave all employees smartphones running Apple, Google, or Microsoft's software. The hope is that they'll start thinking about how to make the next generation of mobile apps to power Yahoo's future.
- She also gave employees free food, which should encourage them to hang at Yahoo's offices longer. It should also encourage interaction between employees.
- And, most controversially of all, she ended employees working from home. They now have to come to the office.

Pencil-makers were first recorded in the imperial city of Nuremberg around the year 1660. Numerous craftsmen also set up shop in the surrounding villages, but especially in Stein, just within the Marquisate of Ansbach. Here artisans were not subject to the same strict controls as in Nuremberg, so they had a competitive advantage.
One of them was the cabinet-maker Kaspar Faber. At first he worked for local traders, but in his spare time he produced pencils on his own account. Soon he became so successful that he was able to set up his own business. From these humble beginnings it was to develop into a company known all over the world.
After Kaspar's death his son Anton took over the business, which was already doing well. He acquired a plot of land on the edge of Stein, with a workshop that within a few years he had built up into a flourishing manufactory. The site remains the headquarters of A.W. Faber-Castell to this day. At the age of 51 Anton Wilhelm handed over to his only son Georg Leonhard what was already documented as a pencil factory and the company that still bears his initials.
Georg Leonhard continued to operate the company in what were difficult times, politically and economically, but was unable to prevent a fall-off in business. His pencils were still produced using conventional methods, even though a new process for making the leads had been discovered in France. He was also unable to compete with the "rare English pencils" made from finest Cumberland graphite.
However, he realized that foreign experience was decisive for the future of his company, and so he sent his sons Lothar and Johann abroad. And it was in the progressive cities of London and Paris that the eldest son Lothar developed the ideas that within a few years were to raise the factory in Stein to the ranks of an international company.
The 22-year-old Lothar Faber returned home on his father's death in 1839. With a strong will he followed an ambitious goal: "to rise to the highest position by making the best that can be made anywhere in the world". He modernized the production plant and secured first-class raw material from a graphite mine in Siberia.
He placed great store by top quality and exclusive presentation of his products, stamped "A.W. Faber" – and so the first brand-name writing implement came into being.
On taking over the business, Lothar wasted no time in modernizing production. He put up new buildings, light and airy to provide healthier working conditions and motivate the employees better. The sexes were strictly segregated: heavy manual work such as processing clay and graphite and wood was carried out by men, while polishing, stamping, and packaging the pencils for dispatch was exclusively women's work. The picture shows the leads being glued into the slats.
Lothar Faber was well aware of the social problems arising from industrialization. Therefore at an early stage he set up institutions that only later became standard, such as a company health insurance scheme – the oldest in Bavaria.
Five years later he founded a savings bank for his workers, then a pension scheme and a "consumers' club" where they could buy food at favourable prices. He built apartment blocks which were very comfortable by the standards of the time, so that his employees enjoyed a relatively high standard of living.
Education was particularly dear to Lothar Faber's heart. In order to protect small children from "harmful influences" he provided generous support for a kindergarten in Stein that opened on 13 August 1851 – under the cumbersome name "infant care institution". He gave donations to schools and other educational establishments, including a library for his employees containing "useful and instructive" books.
Lothar Faber secured a decisive market advantage when he acquired the sole mineral rights to a graphite mine in Siberia in 1856. A French gold prospector had discovered the deposit and offered a partnership to A.W. Faber, by now a well-known company. The lumps of graphite had to be transported by reindeer over inhospitable terrain from the Sayan mountains, some 200 miles west of Irkutsk, then by boat down the river Amur to the east coast and from there along the western Pacific and across the Indian Ocean and the Atlantic to Hamburg. It was a worthwhile undertaking even so, and the "Siberian pencils", encased in fine wood from Florida, were sold all over the world.
The A.W. Faber company celebrated its hundredth anniversary in 1861. By then it had 250 employees and had cornered a significant share of the market. Lothar Faber, ever innovative, was looking for possibilities to diversify his business and came across a slate quarry a dozen miles west of the town of Hof in north Bavaria. In that centenary year he set up a factory for making school slates in the village of Geroldsgrün, providing employment for many people. Later this produced some world-famous slide rules.
Trade and commerce became increasingly difficult during the US civil war (1861-1865). So as to be able to produce pencils for the North American market, A.W. Faber set up a factory in Brooklyn that was headed by Lothar Faber's brother Eberhard. Later this was to cut its ties with the parent company and become an independent firm as the Eberhard Faber Company.
In 1870 the name A.W. Faber was officially entered in the US Register of Companies, as the fifth name in the first ledger. Since the four companies ahead of it no longer exist, A.W. Faber is the oldest brand name in the USA.
The company was registered in Russia that same year. Registration followed in Great Britain, Italy, France, and Spain.
Lothar von Faber's only child Wilhelm was the designated heir. He studied business administration in Nuremberg and in Switzerland, and joined the company in 1873. Three years later he became an authorized signatory with power of attorney.
Wilhelm von Faber was of artistic bent and not really cut out for business. Fate was unkind to him: his sons Lothar and Alfred died at the age of three and four respectively. To complete the tragedy, he himself died at the early age of 42, leaving three daughters, all under age.
After Lothar's death in 1896, his widow Ottilie ran the company until the turn of the century, assisted by some faithful employees.
Wilhelm von Faber's eldest daughter and subsequent heir Baroness Ottilie von Faber (1877–1944) was married in 1898 to Count Alexander zu Castell-Rüdenhausen. Two years later he joined the board of management which he headed after the death of Lothar's widow in 1903. That same year the foundation stone for the grand "New Castle" was laid – a unique monument in the Jugendstil (German art nouveau style).
The company flourished anew under Count Alexander. He gave it a more modern and unmistakable image, with the famous green "Castell 9000" pencil and the jousting knights logo.
So as to retain the familiar company identity, Lothar von Faber had stipulated in his will that if his heiress marry then she must keep the family name. In those days that was a most unusual step, requiring royal approval. But it is the reason why Alexander and Ottilie were known not as "Count and Countess zu Castell-Rüdenhausen" but as Count and Countess von Faber-Castell. The new name was later transferred to the company, which thenceforth became A.W. Faber-Castell.
Only a short time after taking over as head of the company, Count Alexander was able to achieve a competitive lead with a series of high-quality pencils bearing the name Castell. This superior range of products utilized a new manufacturing process and included a variety of different pencils. The dark green coat of paint – supposedly based on the Count's regimental colours – and the picture of the jousting knights came to stand for the A.W. Faber-Castell company.
Shortly after the Castell pencils, a further successful product came on the market: "Polychromos". From the start they were available in 60 different hues, carefully matched to standard watercolour paints. Within a few years these pencils were familiar to artists as a top-quality product; their leading position remains unchallenged to this day.
The Count and Countess separated after 18 years of marriage. Count Alexander's long absence during the war had made it hard to reconcile their differing interests. Ottilie left her husband and children to marry Philipp von Brand zu Neidstein. As the divorce law then stood, she was the guilty party, and her family fortune went to the son Roland. Count Alexander continued to head the business.
Two years after divorcing Ottilie, Count Alexander married Countess Margit von Zedtwitz; their son Radulf was born in 1922. The Count reverted to the name Castell-Rüdenhausen.He died of a lung complaint at the age of 61. His only son from the first marriage, the 23-year-old Roland, was heir to the Faber-Castell title.
On the death of Count Alexander in 1928 his young son Roland became head of the company. In 1932 Faber-Castell took over the Johann Faber pencil factory (founded by Lothar von Faber's brother in 1879) and with it the Brazilian subsidiary Lapis Johann Faber. In 1950 Faber-Castell acquired the Osmia company and started manufacturing fountain pens under its own name; production ceased in 1975.
New foreign subsidiaries were set up between 1960 and 1977, including a sales company in France (1960), factories in Australia and Austria (both in 1962) and Argentina and Peru (both in 1965). In 1967 Count Roland was able to buy back a majority share in Lapis Johann Faber S.A. in São Carlos, which had been confiscated during the Second World War. It is now the largest pencil factory in the world.
The Second World War again wrought great economic harm. The factories in Brazil and the USA were lost. However, in a relatively short time Count Roland von Faber-Castell managed to put the company back on its feet.
Production of patented TK pencils started in Konstanz on the Swiss border in 1948. This was a new mechanical pencil for technical illustrators and artists which proved successful on an international scale.

ARCHIBRAILLE library offers a larger number of Braille music scores, available in the new format named BMML format. Through BMML format, the user does not depend any longer from language, nor from transcription mode, nor from different ASCII-Braille correspondence tables.
Braille digital scores on this library have been drawn from Braille embossable files, using a programme called "Resonare".
Resonare is mainly for transcribers or proofreaders, and it behaves much like a grammar analyser. In other terms, Resonare inputs a traditional Braille music file, no matter what programme has produced it, and gives each musical element its meaning and its context in the given score. Example: d = C quaver of the first voice in the first bar of the second staff.
Copying a music score for Braille reading, using traditional techniques, based on use of normal editors, requires a deep knowledge of Braille music notation. On the other end, a Braille score is not as easy to follow as its print source. In other words, whilst a sighted musician even with little familiarity, can tell where notes are, or can tell where a chord is, or how many parts contains his score, a blind musician must master Braille music notation in order to grasp a rough idea about what his score is like.
This is a result of the fact that Braille music text transforms the score from a graphical to a linear layout. The purpose of this portal is to offer a larger number of scores to benefit blind musicians in their musical education. This service is totally free of charge, not for profit and it does not host any commercial advertisement (including indirect advertising). A lot of music scores are available for sighted people at very reduced prices, ten Euros for a piece, on average, but the situation is different for visually impaired individuals, since the number of available pieces is less than 1%, compared with the number of those for sighted. In addition, the costs for transcription and printing are extremely high, up to hundreds of Euros for a single book. Most of the texts available in this archive are already free of copyright, since the composers died over 99 years ago. For the pieces still covered by copyright, a necessary permission will be required from the owner of the right.
ARCHIBRAILLE library will hopefully be enriched with other scores coming from blind musicians, their teachers, libraries and transcription centres or single transcribers, who will donate their works to increase the archive. The supplier of the text must declare that there are no rights tied to the pieces. In cases where the pieces were transcribed in Braille complying with national regulations, the portal will limit the access to those pieces only to users living within the same country. The other users will be allowed to consult the catalogue and apply directly to the Braille score provider to obtain the piece. To download scores, the user has to register with the portal and declare, under his/her personal liability, to be a certified visually impaired individual according to his/her national laws, or to be a specialised teacher for blind students.
The music in the archive are more than 500 belong to the following composers:
Anonym; Aprea, Tito; Bach, Johann Sebastian; Bain, J. L. M. ; Beethoven, Ludwig van; Behr, Franz ; Capi Lupi, Germignano; Carcassi, Matteo; Chopin, Fryderyk; Cimarosa, Domenico; Czerny, Carl; Dattazzi, Inolfo; Duvernoy, Jean Baptiste; Fiorentino, Meo; Frescobaldi, Girolamo; Genzmer, Harald; Gershwin, George; Handel, G. F.; Hu Haipeng; Mendelssohn, Felix; Milan, Luis; Mozart, Wolfgang Amadeus; Pachelbel, Johann; Pippo Molino; Quantz, Johann Joachim; Rimsky-Korsakov, Nikolai (N.A. Rimskiy-Korsakov, N. Rimsky-Korsakoff, Rimsky-Korsakov); Roogers, R and Hart, L; Schroeder, Hermann; Schumann, Robert; Tarrega, Francisco; Tchaikovsky, Pyotr Ilyich (Peter Tchaikovsky; Peter Ilich Tchaikovsky; Peter Tchaikovsky; Pjotr Iljitsch Tschaikowsky; Pyotr Tchaikovsky; Tchaikovsky; Tchaikvosky's Ghost; Tschaikowski; Tschaikowsky) ; Trombone, Antonio; Vecchi, Orazio; Veggio, Giò Agostino; William H. Monk

And it's one of the things Jeff and I do not agree on.
He likes a little more color.
I don't know why I resisted adding some color for so long. He was right in insisting. Of course. These little additions of color have made the rooms warmer, more interesting. But most of all, they have lifted my spirits.
I LIKE walking into the rooms and seeing the subtle transformation. It makes me smile, and chases the funk away that I've been in.
Don't worry, I fully plan on divulging the reason for my funk.

New Zealand Cricket has referred the alleged racist abuse towards England paceman Jofra Archer by a spectator in last week's first Test to the police.
Hours after England's defeat in Mount Maunganui, Archer revealed he had heard "racial insults" from "one guy" while returning to the pavilion in an incident that led to a wide-ranging inquiry from an apologetic home board.
The investigation included scrutinising CCTV footage, listening to audio, interviewing bystanders and obtaining material on social media although New Zealand Cricket has been unable to conclusively identify the individual.
However, New Zealand Cricket chief executive David White feels what it has gathered is enough to justify lodging a complaint with Tauranga police.
"What happened to Jofra was reprehensible and has led to a general upscaling of security around the area of racial abuse at all our international venues," White said.
"Should the person responsible ever re-offend, we believe we have enough information to link him to the Bay Oval incident."
New Zealand Cricket said it would not "comment on public speculation regarding his personal details", but if the perpetrator was identified, the governing body would seek to a ban "from all its international venues for a lengthy period".
Black Caps captain Kane Williamson labelled the incident "horrific" while White travelled to Hamilton – the venue of the second Test – to meet with and personally apologise to the fast bowler.

The grand promise of public education is to provide all students with an equal opportunity to learn and prepare themselves for work or future education regardless of their socio-economic conditions at home. In an immigrant society like Canada's, this ambition is critically important to ensure that the children of immigrants have opportunities and life chances equal to the children of Canadian-born parents. Canadian education appears to be delivering on this promise, though there is room for improvement.
There is only a small difference between the overall reading scores of Canadian-born students who speak the language of the test (i.e., English or French) at home and the scores of Canadian-born second-generation students who do not speak the language of the test at home. While those who speak the test language at home achieved a score of 530, second-generation students who do not speak the language were close behind with a score of 517—a difference of less than 3 per cent.
The reading test used for this report card is from the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), an international assessment of the skills and knowledge of 15 year olds, coordinated by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).
Canada performs much better than almost all of its peer countries on equity in learning outcomes. Although it trails Australia—whose second-generation students actually do better than its others students—the gap in reading test scores in Canada (12.9 points) is less than half the gap in its next closest competitors, the U.K. (30 points). Moreover, Canada's gap is well below the average gap of its peers of 51 points.
Remarkably, not only is the gap in reading test scores smaller in Canada than almost every other peer country, but the average score of the Canadian students who do not speak the language of the test at home is actually higher than the scores of students who speak the language of the test at home in 11 of the 16 peer countries. In other words, in addition to doing well in educational equity, the Canadian system produces outcomes for immigrants' children that are among the world's best regardless of immigration status. This means Canadian students are operating on an almost equal playing field domestically, and are being prepared to compete for other educational and employment opportunities globally.
Australia leads its peers in ensuring equity in learning outcomes, showing a gap of only 11.2 points on reading test scores. What's fascinating about the Australian situation is that second-generation students who do not speak the test language at home are achieving better scores, on average, than Australian students who speak the test language at home. This could be a consequence of an immigration system that selects highly educated candidates who, in turn, may provide a strong foundation for their children's educational performance, regardless of the language spoken at home. Indeed, this might also partly explain Canada's superior performance.
Nevertheless, because second-generation students are testing well in a language other than their home language, it is clear that the Australian and Canadian education systems are making a contribution to equity.
The absolute value of the gap in reading scores between Canadian-born students who speak the language of the test at home and Canadian-born second-generation students who do not speak the language of the test at home.

A quick primer on Qatar, the small Middle Eastern nation that on Thursday was awarded the right to host 2022 World Cup.
Pronunciation: KA-tar.
Population: The CIA fact book reports a population of 840,926 in July 2010, ranked 159th in the world with roughly 25,000 more residents than San Francisco.
Men make up two-thirds of the population, and 96 percent of the population lives in an urban setting. The median age is 30.8 years old.
Geographical size: The country stretches 4,416 square miles on the Qatar Peninsula, the 165th-biggest country in the world. Qatar is the smallest country to ever host the World Cup, and is roughly 1,100 square miles smaller than Connecticut. If Qatar were a US state, it would be the fourth-smallest in the nation, including the District of Columbia. Qatar boasts roughly 395 miles of coastline, about the same as Louisiana.
Capital: Approximately 80 percent of the country's population lives in Doha, which played host to the 2006 Asian Games.
Time Zone: Qatar is eight hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time.
Religion: The 2004 census reported that 77.5 percent of the population is Muslim, and 8.5 percent are Christian. Other religions make up 14 percent of the population.
Language: Arabic is the official language, but English is commonly used as a second language.
Climate: Qatar has an arid climate emblematic of the Middle East, boasting average daily temperatures in July as high as 115 degrees Fahrenheit and lows in the mid-80s — numbers comparable to Las Vegas. The country receives an average of just 3.9 inches of rain per year, and 1.64 percent of the land is used for agricultural purposes.
Economy: The estimated gross domestic product in 2009 in Qatar was $100.8 billion, 67th-best in the world and better than countries like Serbia, Bulgaria and Costa Rica. The country's rich natural gas and oil deposits, however, make Qatar the second-highest per-capita income country in the world, behind Lichtenstein. The average person in Qatar made $121,000 in 2009, while the average American made $46,000 the same year.
Qatar also boasts the world's second fastest-growing national economy in the world, behind Macau. Qatar's proved reserves of natural gas exceed 25 trillion cubic meters, about 14 percent of the world total and third-largest in the world. The nation is the fifth-largest exporter of natural gas in the world.
The unemployment rate in Qatar was just .5 percent in 2009, second-lowest in the world. The US, by comparison, had an unemployment rate of 9.3 percent last year.
Independence: Qatar gained its independence from England in 1971.
Travel: Qatar Airways is the only airline that offers direct flights from the United States, from Washington Dulles International to Doha International Airport. Doha is also serviced by a few European airlines, including British Airways, Lufthansa and KLM. The cheapest flight from New York's La Guardia Airport last June was $1,062, with stops in Montreal and Munich. There are four airports with paved runways in Qatar, and roughly 4,837 miles of roadway.
Soccer ranking: The Qatari national team is currently ranked 104th in the world, and was ranked as high as 51st in 1993. They have never played in a World Cup, but won seven of 14 games during qualifying for the 2002 World Cup. They also reached the quarterfinals of the 2000 Asian Cup in Lebanon.

Beat the Streak Report: Monday, May 16
Sunday was great if you're the type of Streaker who prefers to play it safe, wrapping your streak in the protective bubble wrap of a 0-for-0 pass whenever you can't find a matchup that's 100 percent to your liking.
With rain washing away games in Detroit and Cleveland, nearly a quarter of all selectors spun their wheels on the likes of Miggy, V-Mart, Ichiro and Jhonny Peralta.
Sure, most of those were probably honest I-wish-they-didn't-get-rained-out-because-I-love-the-baseball-so-much passes. But we bet that there were a few please-let-the-heavens-open-because-I-don't-want-to-pick-against-Roy-Halladay jobs in there also.
You know who you are.
There's plenty of karma in this here BTS game, folks, and it will bring painful reckoning down at the most inconvenient of moments. The 0-for-1 pinch-hit streak-killer special, anyone? Three walks and a K (a.k.a. the big donkey)? Chilling, chilling stuff. Best to bring your lunch pail every single day.
P.S.: Since a few of you asked last Friday, I should probably introduce myself. I'm not Dave Feldman. I'm Ian Kay. Dave is now MLB.com's designated David Ortiz interviewer (Hey look, Pez!), so I handle the Report writing/Feldman impersonations around here. Nice to meet ya'll, and good luck in your continued Streaking endeavors.

So Ian, you have this blog for the rest of the year?
Trying your hand at this game this year?
Ian, another question for you… Would you be so kind as to tell us how many people play this game? We are all very curious [insert some cool sound effect here]
Friday morning I blogged that 126 streakers entered that day in position to get to, or stay at, 20 games or better by this morning. I also mentioned that weekends are generally not very fruitful. Well what happened over the weekend? Let's just say it wasn't very good for many & that's an understatement. Of those 126 streakers, only 25 sit at 20 or more games today. Not all of the remaining 121, that didn't get there, got reset; though a majority did. Some sat idle due to the 4 rain-outs over the weekend.
Here's another indication how bad the weekend was. In order to get on the last page of standings, you needed a streak of 9. And there were 25+ pages of 9-gamers in the standings. This morning, one needs an 8-gamer to get on the standings. There are now 24 pages of 8-gamers, nearly 25% of the standings, where yesterday there were none.
As for our "Bloggers Group", we can see zero-streaks on the 1st page of our standings; how rare is that, 6 weeks into the season?
Can't subtract without my coffee 🙂
^^ Of the 101 remaining streakers, not 121
Anyone know of any good DL players to use today?
I am feeling a little burned out recently and I might want to take a few days off.
Everyone I look at seems shaky, which has not been the case for the past 2 or 3 weeks.
Per rotoworld: Lind is out of today's lineup. Pujols (HBP) getting x-ray today. Both games should show lineups b4 games lock. Jones (ATL) having knee issues but always a pinch possibility.
If you were quick enough, Cooper (TOR) sent to minors today; I loaded him up for next 9-days as insurance.
Thanks for the help!
Thankfully, I found someone I liked for today.
I just seemed to be having a mental block this morning for some reason that just would not go away.
Now you just have 6 hours to 2nd guess yourself 🙂 Me too
So HRBTS and MLB Survivor are returning?
Where did you see/hear that? Not a big fan of either, but a co-worker liked Survivor.
They are mentioned in the blog headline. I don't think they were there before.
Anyone else looking ahead? This weekend (Fri-Sun) is first interleague weekend. Only 1 NL-NL game (MIL/COL); all others are AL-NL match-ups. Interleague picks always make me a bit nervous in BTS
I love how MLB.com Odyssey is still coming soon!
For those interested if you click on where it says resources on the right side of the BTS blog you can see that HR BTS is now open. I'm going to try it to see how far I can get.
Appears so. Since the current streak is zero, today is the first day it opened? Think I'll add a pick for grins
if you just type, "Beat the Streak Home Runs 2011" into google, you can find the link.
I went with Dan Uggla in my limited analysis.
I was lucky to even see that the contest was open since I normally work on my normal BTS pick right before picks lock or if I did it early, I normally get a power nap in beforehand.
Sorry, I clicked the wrong "reply" button.
I don't see it. 😦
It's gone, but I can still get to it. They may be playing with it to get it ready? Try this link

K, just cause u asked I'm going Prado. Reset was 42% and 32%PPD.
Ian, you playing or are you just holding on to your MLB employee record of 29?
PS I love that Pappi interview.
That was my pick most of today, but went elsewhere. GL with that 1st AB magic.
Polanco, Ichiro, Prado & Hafner were my finalists. Polanco is not in the line-up. I'm stuck on debating btwn Ichiro & Hafner
lol Ian, do you still think Carlos Gonzalez is a crappy player?
I'm going for an off the wall pick today but he is hitting .480 in his last 25 ABs and got 3 hits yesterday so why not right. Mark Ellis is my pick. Hitting .197 but hits well against Pineiro.
lol, what the hell was his batting average before that hot streak!
I used Ellis a couple times last year, but it is so tough to pick him since he always hit 9th.
He's hitting 7th so he has moved up. LOL.
Thank you Chipper Jones for not playing. 😦 ;-(

LOL. would you look at that Keith, Prado with another first ab hit for me day after a reset.
Almost wish I picked him now ;). Let's see if my other 2 finalists get hits: Hafner & Ichiro
If there was a contest of 1st AB hits after a reset, I think you'd be atop that leader board!
Ya no shit. Anyways good luck to everyone else.
@gpearson: That's the Cubs for you. 1st inning: out, followed by 3 walks, Soriano & A-Ram strike out. Throwing gifts like that away to the 1st place Reds is just another symptom of whatever the Cubbies have. I know it's early, but I am already becoming a worried Cub fan
CLE pickers alert!!! Kyle Davies hurt and removed in 1st inning. Coin flip whether your picks hit or not now
Guess no one had to really worry about cle other than Choo pickers.
And he still has at least 2 more guaranteed ABs unless pulled.
Who woulda thunk? 15 hits & 17 runs in just 5 innings; yet Choo still 0-fer
All those Polanco pickers are miffed now. PH whiff in top of 8th. Unless PHI bats around in top of 9th, 102 streakers reset. Not much of an excuse… line-ups posted well in advance & Polanco wasn't in the starting line-up. Personally, I'm hoping the BTS gods will be happy with that sacrifice and not take Ichiro too.
Well Ichi came thru for you. The gods were happy with Polanco. I'm looking at Prado again for tomorrow.
Vlad is my pick, depending on weather
A's rallied to tie in the 9th with 1 out to go.
Ellis might hit again if the game can go to the 11th.

While the West is busy promoting BioVex's OncoVEX, Bristol-Myers' Ipilimumab & Pfizer's Tremelimumab as the top cures for Melanoma, Yakub Muslim scientist researchers are saying that the Melanoma has no "cure" and that the only true preventive measure or treatment that can send it into a "trustworthy" remissive state are what they are calling "Nigger Fecal Extracts" that when applied on the surface of the epidermis can both prevent skin "cancer" outbreaks and Melanoma inception and also can, when applied to lymph nodes, can send even stage IV Melanoma into remmission.
While the Nigger Fecal Extract (NFE) solution has been privately known by the Nation of Yakub Muslims for over a decade, sources say the combination of the West finally publishing the truth about the "epidemic state" of Melanoma and the recent Environmental Work Group (EWG) study revealing the link between sunscreen and sunblock have created the environment were "whites may finally know the truth. Whites looking to purchase NFE for relief or protection, however, are out of luck. It's not for sale. Skin sinners seeking applications may inquire with Yakub Muslims in their city. NFE Applications may also be attained by contacting the Nation of Yakub directly.
"The necessary clinical trials were run over a decade ago and have been repeated numerous time over the last ten years," a Yakub Muslim spokesman is quoted as saying. "Up until this day, however, the white devil hasn't known about his skin damnation; and, infact – many of them are still in denial about it."
According to Pontiac and Detroit (Michigan) Yakub Muslims, forty three year old Harvey Mesler (a firemean), whose Melanoma Execution was complete Thursday night, had planned an elaborate trip Disney World in Florida – next week – in spite of National Curfew set against him and members of his race.

Bridjo Cobbs' doorbell rang at 10:30 Saturday night. It was her son's friend, claiming he wanted to use the phone. In reality, though � and not for the first time � he wanted a place to crash.
The teen is 15, a student and talented athlete at Doherty High. His parents died when he was young, and he's bounced around from foster homes to group homes throughout Worcester County. The day before he rang Cobbs' doorbell, he had bolted from his latest residence, the Sybil H. Flagg Children's Center in Boylston.
"He's not a bad kid," Cobbs said. "But like any teenager, when you impose rules he tends to get angry. He bristles at rules... He's quiet and reserved. In my presence he's always respectful. He's a normal teenager."
It was cold outside and Cobbs invited him in. She asked why he keeps leaving the homes, and the boy offered various vague complaints, such as his social worker never returning his calls. On this night, he said he had planned to stay at a friend's house, but the friend got grounded.
"I know he's not blameless in all of this because he did run away," Cobbs said. "But he's only 15, and he's a ward of the state."
After more conversation, the teen agreed that Cobbs could call his group home. So she contacted the Flagg Children's Center, told a staffer that the teen was at her house and asked that someone come and get him.
Instead, she was told that she needed to call Worcester police, because the youth was the subject of an arrest warrant for running away from the group home.
So she called police, and two officers showed up. They ran a check on the teenager and found no warrant. Instead, they told her, they found a missing person report from a Framingham home he had lived in three months before.
Obviously, though, he wasn't missing from the Framingham home; he had been placed in a different program. And there was no arrest warrant for the boy.
"This is not the first time this has happened, and it angers me," Cobbs said. "They only say these kids have warrants because the program doesn't want to pick them up. So the kids either find another place to stay for the night, or it's up to the police to arrange transportation. But these folks are supposed to be caring for these children. It's their job. They are getting paid to care for them."
The Flagg Children's Center is run by YOU Inc. and serves adolescent boys. Monday, several calls and messages to Program Director Gene Sims weren't returned, nor was a message returned from YOU Inc.
Cobbs said the police officers took the youth with them Saturday night and she assumed he was returned to the center. She understands that caring for young people at risk is a difficult job and she doesn't know the full story. But she noted that the boy had been missing since the afternoon before and she questioned why staff wouldn't be eager to collect him.
"If I were to leave my child outside with no place to go, these same people would be at my door, arresting me and taking my child away from me for neglect," she said.
She said the teenager stayed at a different friend's house last month, and that friend's mom received the same response from the center when she asked for someone to come get him.
"I know our system is broken and there's no easy solution," Cobbs said. "But they shouldn't be giving up on a boy like this. This needs to be looked into. How can we blame a child for running from a program when it is clear that they don't care?"
She added, "This could be my son. He could be anyone's son. How do you not get involved? How do you literally leave a child out in the cold?"

California and Arizona citrus nursery growers are shifting production of critical plants from the outdoors to 'indoor protective structures' to gain protection from the Asian citrus psyllid (ACP) insect and its primary vectored disease Huanglongbing (HLB).
ACP and HLB are major threats to the U.S. citrus industry. The ACP was first found in California in August 2008 and in Arizona in October 2009. Neither state has HLB, a disease which kills every tree it infects.
Growing plants indoors is much different than outdoor production, says Jim Bethke, University of California Cooperative Extension floriculture farm advisor in San Diego County.
"The plants change, the pests change, and the soil and growing environment changes."
Bethke has spent decades helping San Diego County ornamental plant growers successfully farm plants in greenhouses. He shared his experiences and what citrus nursery growers could experience in indoor production during the "Life on the Inside" citrus nursery workshop in Ontario, Calif., in mid August, sponsored by the California Citrus Nursery Board.
One of the first realities of growing plants indoors is the pest complex can increase.
"You'll likely find extra pests indoors that you haven't dealt with outside including mites and thrips," Bethke told the citrus nursery crowd. "It's very hard to exclude mites with screening material. The screen can exclude the Asian citrus psyllid, but will not keep out thrips."
For decades, pesticide applications in greenhouses have typically followed a calendar schedule. Ornamental plant growers are keenly aware that mites and aphids show up in the spring and leafminers appear closer to summer. Pesticides were applied whether the pest was present or not.
The more recent trend in greenhouse production is reduced pesticide use due to integrated pest management (IPM) strategies plus effective pest monitoring and scouting.
"A lot of time and effort is spent looking for pests and positively identifying the pests," Bethke said. "Every effort is made to control pests before pesticides are ever applied."
A knowledgeable staff is critical to this success and in a small operation staffing may include strictly the owner.
In larger operations with multiple employees, Bethke recommends a three-member team – one member each to focus on IPM, decision making, and plant production. The team should meet on a regular basis.
"The IPM team should closely monitor plants for pests and then record and summarize the information on paper," Bethke said.
The scout monitors for pests and the decision maker decides if the pest has reached a level that requires a control measure. The grower, the most familiar with the crop, walks the crop on a daily basis and can identify problems with the plants. These three working together can make good decisions on needed pest control.
Pest sampling crucial
Pest sampling is crucial to understanding the exact pest population in the greenhouse.
Indirect sampling can include yellow sticky traps, pheromone traps, and blacklight traps. Bethke recommends at least one sticky trap per every 10,000 square feet. One trap per every 1,000 square feet is best. Position the traps vertically above the crop.
"One trap per 1,000 square feet is recommended when a serious pest problem exists or the crop is sensitive to pests," Bethke explained. "This more expensive but is much more effective at catching a serious problem in the greenhouse."
Traps do not provide data on immature pest populations and disease, Bethke says. Insects are attracted to the color yellow and are drawn to the yellow traps. Insects are attracted to plants since green plants contain a heavy yellow pigment.
Direct pest sampling is the most precise way to determine actual pest thresholds. Bethke recommends examining plant or leaf samples, turning the leaf over for inspection since insects tend to hide on the back side, and observational counting by walking down the plant row.
Direct sampling should include optivisor or a hand lens to examine the leaf for pests. Bethke recommends further examination under a microscope. Positive pest identification is the key to proper pesticide control and determines if pests have been killed by the treatment applications.
Other effective direct sampling techniques include tapping the plant to knock insects onto a sheet of white paper for examination. On large trees, hitting the limbs can knock off pests for gathering.
With both plant sampling methods, Bethke recommends scouting the entire area in a consistent, uniform manner - inspecting several plants from various locations. Target pest hot spots near vents, doors, edges, warmer areas, and more susceptible plant cultivars. Then flag the hot spots.
Treating the entire structure with pesticide may not be necessary.
"It doesn't make sense to treat the entire facility if the pests are only at a corner of the greenhouse or near a door," Bethke said. "Treating only the hot spots saves time plus pesticide and labor costs."
Written records should include the number of plants inspected, damage or infestation, specific pest species and abundance, exact pest locations, environmental conditions, the time involved to scout and apply control measures, and control costs.
Pest monitoring has many benefits including: precise pest site locations, evaluation of control measures, collecting data over time which helps predict future pest populations, reduced pesticide resistance, lower pesticide exposure to workers, improved plant growth, and increased profit by reducing pesticide costs.
Pesticide application
Pesticides are expensive and should only be used when needed.
"Pesticides are not always needed and should be only used when necessary using the correct product for the correct pest at the correct developmental stage for a specifically identified pest," Bethke said. "Follow the label. If you apply at a higher label rate you'll have a greater chance of developing insecticide resistance."
Pesticides can fail to control pests but usually the real culprit is human error. The most common human mistakes include the failure to implement an IPM program, a failure to monitor, misidentification of pests, incorrect pesticide application rates, pesticide resistance, and using old products.
"Some growers have a cabinet of old pesticide materials. These products will not work," Bethke said. "Pesticides stored in hot areas degrade over time."
Another reason pesticides fail is due to the water used in tank mixes. "Water is huge," Bethke said. "Most pesticides work better if the water is acidic."
Greenhouse plant production incorporates many plants grown in tight quarters. It is more difficult to effectively cover plants with pesticides. A successful tool to improve pesticide performance is the use of adjuvants.
"Insecticides, including the product Abamectin for mite control, work better and for a longer period of time with an adjuvant," Bethke said.
Adjuvants can enhance the consistency of pesticides thereby reducing pesticide roll off from the plant to the floor.
Another reality of greenhouse farming is insects mature faster due to higher temperatures in the facility.
Bethke also stressed the importance of pesticide rotation to reduce pest resistance by using various modes of action (MOA). MOA information is available from the Insecticide Resistance Action Committee online at www.irac-online.org.

Chefs Share Their Favorite Bars
Hey Chef, what's in your glass?
When it's time to unwind after work, chefs don't necessarily want to make their own drinks. The closest spot to the restaurant often becomes a favorite, but most also have a soft spot for a good dive bar or anywhere with tasty tiki drinks.
We asked chefs from around the country about their favorite places to go out to drink. Here's what they had to say.
New York
What's New On Serious Eats
"La Esquina has been a favorite of mine for years. It's conveniently down the street from Delicatessen, and I like to head over there after work for a cocktail and a snack." —Michael Ferraro (Delicatessen)
"Daddy O's in the West Village. It is open late, has a really good burger, and is well kept. It is also a place where you can easily run into chefs from the neighborhood as they finish service, which is always fun." —Harold Dieterle (Perilla, Kin Shop, The Marrow)
"My favorite bar is Apotheke NYC. The ambiance is cozy and comfortable, and it also has creative cocktails." —Eddy Thretipthuangsin (PakPao Thai)
"My favorite bar is McSorley's in NYC. It's the city's oldest pub and only serves dark or light beer—plus, you can buy them 5 at a time..." —Marc Marrone (LAVO Italian Restaurant, TAO Asian Bistro)
"Favorite bar is Maison Premiere [in Brooklyn]. I love the oysters, and their drinks are light enough that you can have several without falling off the stool. Their drinks pair really well with the food." —Erik Niel (Easy Bistro & Bar)
"Evelyn on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. It is a rustic space, they have a really well rounded menu, and the bartender knows his stuff." —Shaun Hergatt (Juni)
"The Subway Inn on E. 60th Street. It's a quintessential dive bar and has been around forever." —Michael Psilakis (Kefi, FishTag, MP Taverna)
"Right now, I think my favorite bar would have to be Billy Sunday. I like it for the craft cocktails, atmosphere, their extensive collection of fernet and house made tonics." —Gregory Ellis (2 Sparrows)
"I have come to a point in my life where I'm not really out at bars on any regular basis—two kids and two restaurants doesn't allow for a lot of end-of-the-night bar time. That said, given the opportunity to head out for a drink, I'm going straight to Bar Deville, as it's my neighborhood haunt, and they serve fine drinks." —Chris Pandel (The Bristol, Balena)
"I really like Aviary in Chicago. The drinks are interesting and fun, and it's a completely different contrast when you go to the office downstairs. I really like places where I can explain to the bartender or mixologist what I'm looking to drink and let them be creative. Plus, the hospitality there is warm and welcoming; really great people there." —Ryan Poli (Tavernita)
"Maria's Packaged Goods and Community Bar in Bridgeport." —Bill Kim (bellyQ)
"My favorite bar is Jake Melnick's Corner Tap on Superior. I lived upstairs from it, so it became my place to go after a long day at work. Great beer selection and great food. Berkshire Room is also great. I walk by it on my way home. My old friend Scott Weiner is one of the owners. They have a great selection of drinks." —James O'Donnell (Michael Jordan's Steakhouse)
San Francisco Bay Area
"Amnesia [on Valencia] is the best place to unwind, hear some good tunes and enjoy the good vibes from the staff and the guests."—Nick Balla (Bar Tartine)
"My favorite bar would have to be The Page. It was right around the corner from my first apartment in the city in the Lower Haight. It's where I would always hang out after work on my way home with my cook and chef buddies. We would talk about how we were going to change the world and how things would be different some day when we were in charge. The formative years. I like that there is always a shot and a beer special for $8 and it's never too crowded. Even on amateurs' night (Fri and Sat)."——Chris Thompson (A16)
"For a nice retro repast, you may find us at the lounge at Emeryville's Trader Vic's, circa 1960 something. The Old Way Mai Tai developed by Vic Bergeron in 1944 is still hand crafted: freshly squeezed lime, orgeat, proper light and dark rums, curacao and lots of fresh mint. Also the Scorpion cocktail is seductive with a gardenia float. The pupus, Indian fire-fueled ovens and Polynesian old world feel comforts and refreshes, a worthy 60 minute escape, with views of the bay and sunsets year round."—Gayle Pirie and John Clark (Foreign Cinema)
"Bloodhound at Folsom and 7th. Friendly bartenders, balanced unpretentious cocktails. It has a very laid back vibe midweek, and they are dog friendly. I can go home after work, grab my 2 dogs and walk over a drink. They also have Old Speckled Hen on draft which is one of my favorite beers, my dog Guanciale is a fan too."—Matt Gandin (Comal)
Southern California
"Dargan's Pub & Restaurant in Santa Barbara, CA. It is an old Irish pub with great pool tables and friendly bartenders. It is off the strip, so not a lot of tourists get there. They make the best Bloody Mary I have ever had. In a rocks glass. This is not a glorified glass of tomato juice. It is a DRINK. Mainly, it has the "Cheers" feeling. You can get a little crazy, and there is no judgement the next time you come in." —Hank Costello (Andina)
"Tiki Ti is one of my personal favorites. I love tiki drinks. Love the vibe." —Vinny Dotolo (Animal)
"Father's Office in Santa Monica. I love unique beer, and I love great food. This place has it all. They are known for their burger, but I have had some of the best mussels, lamb, and scallops here. The beer selection is better than anything I can find in Dallas (I'm sad to say)." —Braden Wages (Malai Kitchen)
"Shamrock in Newport Beach. It's a friendly local bar where everyone knows your name. I've been going there for a little too long now. They pour the best Guinness in town." —Justin Miller (Pizzeria Ortica)
"My favorite bar in Dallas has to be the Stoneleigh P. They have PBR on tap, and there is rarely a wait at the bar. Ween in the jukebox helps." —Brian Zenner (Belly & Trumpet)
"The Meddlesome Moth, right across the street from Oak. It's a great bar with about 30 beers on tap and a really nice selection of rare beers." —Richard Gras (Oak)
"My favorite bar is Monk's Café in Philadelphia because they have 1998 Guigal la Turque." —Adam Leonti (Vetri Ristorante)
New Orleans
"I like the bar Brothers Three on Magazine Street [in New Orleans]. It's divey, and old men hang out there. I also really like Pal's Lounge in Mid-City. I have been going there for years." —Justin Deviller (La Petite Grocery)
Portland, OR
"My favorite bar is the B Side. It's right down the street from Le Pigeon, but I don't make it there very often with two kids." —Gabe Rucker (Le Pigeon)
"I love going to Barwares for a drink and a snack after work. It's in the Beaumont neighborhood of Northeast Portland and about a ten minute drive from our house . Not only do we adore the bartenders there, but Chef Johanna Ware kicks ass, and it's rare in this town that you can get such great food late night, alongside delicious cocktails AND raucous banter." —Gabrielle Quinonez Denton (Ox)
"Bink's on NE Alberta and 28th. Great dive bar with super friendly bartenders and a great pool table." —Jasper Shen (Aviary)
"On most nights, The Standard in Portland. The great staff is the number one reason, followed by the extremely pocket-friendly gentlemen pours of whatever your flavor may be that evening. Plus, if you're hungry for some bar food, every once in a while they will have a Cuban sandwich on special, which is just killer." —Sean Temple (Paulee)
"I really like Rum Club—good people and good drinks. I also ran the kitchen there for the first year while I was still the chef at Beaker and Flask." —Ben Bettinger (Imperial)
And Beyond...
"Lots of favorites. I love the wine bar adjacent to Osteria Alle Testiere in Venice. I love the Mixology at Artesian at the Langham Hotel in London, which was voted Europe's best bar and best bartender. I think I agree. The Bamboo bar at the Mandarin Oriental in Bangkok. Angel's Share in NYC. Il Foyer at the Four Seasons Milan. B.B. King's Blues Bar in Nashville. Frankie and Johnny's in New Orleans." —Michael Kornick (DMK County Barbeque, DMK Burger Bar)
"I like the bar Seelbach in Louisville, Kentucky because it has a lot of history, and it's in my hometown. I also like Rusty Knot in New York City because they serve pretzel hot dogs with extremely hot mustard, and all the sweet drinks are surprisingly good even though I don't usually like sweet drinks." —Akhtar Nawab (La Cenita)
"My favorite bar is Hollywood Alley in Tempe. I grew up in Arizona, and it's a total dive bar, old school, and totally me." —Brett Vibber (Roka Akor)
"'The tiki hut' on the beach in St. Thomas. It has stunningly beautiful views right on the beach and the best house infused cucumber and spice gin and tonic I've ever had." —Peter Coenen (The Gage)

Do you remember the popular projects that high school students entered into science fairs which included exhibits such as the evolution of trees and plants, the formation of rain clouds or the path of lava flowing from a volcanic eruption? Content was a vital part of your exhibit, but if you had a functional mobile presentation, that made a tremendous impression among your counterparts. Now-a-days, many science projects are focusing on environmental awareness and modern technology.
The world's most prestigious youth award for a water-related science project is the Stockholm Junior Water Prize. This prize taps into the unlimited potential of today's high school students as they seek to address current and future water challenges. Any high school student (grades 9-12) creating a water-related science project is eligible to participate in the U.S. Stockholm Junior Water Prize competition. Projects should focus on local, regional, national or global issues that require using scientifically accepted methodologies for experimentation, monitoring reporting and statistical analysis.
The foundation for the entries submitted into this competition includes the following criteria: creativity, relevance, methodology, subject knowledge, report and presentation, along with practical skills. This competition weights heavily on the quality of the scientific research paper more than the poster presentation. Between June 23-25, state winners for this water prize will compete in the upcoming national competition hosted by the Illinois Water Environment Association in Chicago.
School age students are doing more to make a difference by finding doable solutions for improving the quality of how we use water in our society. Science and technology are two key areas for current and future job opportunities. With some of the amazing water quality science projects that state winners are entering into the national Stockholm Junior Water Competition, it is certain that we will look at water from a new and innovative perspective. We are eager to hear the announcement of who receives the national prize for this award later this month.

Is it April yet?
"Game of Thrones" fans, rejoice: we finally have our first look at season six, and it appears to be all about Jon Snow (Kit Harington). Clearly not content to let "The Walking Dead" have all the fun when it comes to fans speculating over a fan-favorite character's fate, "Game of Thrones" has redirected resurrection talk back to the beloved character, thanks to a new billboard in Times Square. See the full art below.
In the first ad for season six, which reveals that the HBO hit series will return in April, a bloodied Jon Snow is front and center, looking down and distraught.
U.S. & World
The day's top national and international news.
But alive?
CLICK: Ranking the 30 most important deaths on "GOT"
Since Jon Snow's death nearly broke the Internet in June, there have been endless theories crafted by distraught fans, speculating just how the character will resurface. And there has been a lot of evidence that points to Harington's return, including photos of the actor looking very Jon Snow-esque in Spain (one of "GOT's" filming locations). Plus, according to Pedestrian, HBO sent out an email promoting their "Honor The Fallen: The Memoriam Collection" toys. Basically, it's a sale of toys for dead characters on the show...and there wasn't a single mention of Jon Snow in the dearly departed list.
As for Harington, if Jon Snow's alive, he's doing a good job of keeping it a secret. "I've been told I'm dead," he said after the season five finale. "I'm dead. I'm not coming back next season." And according to HBO's president Michael Lombardo, Jon Snow is dead. Like, really dead. "Dead is dead is dead is dead," he told reporters. "He be dead...everything I've seen, heard or read, Jon Snow is dead."

On the surface of Toronto, the air is cold. Life survives, but in the winter months, it is just barely in the habitable zone.
So, the humans of the city have burrowed underground. It began in the early part of the last century. Then, as the towers of the downtown core exploded upward, the underground labyrinth expanded, tunnels finding each other, the whole thing turning into a four-million-square foot city within a city.
Some 100,000 people regularly commute through this place, including 2,500 people who work down here. There are 1,200 stores. Access to PATH is worth about $2 per square foot to the office owners in the towers above.
Landscape architect Pierre Bélanger describes the system as a set of nodes—shopping pavilions, food courts—connected by axes. And, also like the Internet, it's a public-feeling space that is actually privately held. Ken Jones, who has studied the retail establishments of the space, describes PATH as "a retailing subsystem that is directly linked to the corporate city of enterprise" that "serves the residents of the white collar city of privilege."
The most mundane way to think about PATH is that it is simply an "alternative grade" pedestrian walkway. It's one of about 50 large systems throughout the world.
But I like to think of it as a spaceship underground. After all, the available square footage is greater than the Constitution-class Starship Enterprise from the original Star Trek.
Given the state of the space program, The HMCS PATH is about as close to a spaceship as you're likely to board in your lifetime. We are talking about a completely climate-stabilized, surveilled, artificially lit human-maintained system.
There are design guidelines that keep things consistent down there. For example, the city of Toronto does not like high lighting-contrast, presumably because it's disorienting. They, in fact, have an artificial light to darkness ratio that they suggest following: "Avoid glare and/or shadowed areas, and maintain a uniformity ratio that does not exceed 4:1 (i.e. the ratio of average maintained level of illumination to the minimum level of illumination)."
For safety's sake, they tell architects to avoid blind corners around which one could get jumped. If there are areas that seem dangerous, they ask that for convex mirrors to be installed, not to mention security cameras for low pedestrian flow areas.
Even the sonic landscape has been designed to minimize reverberations. The Toronto design guidelines ask that the "aftersound" of a given sonic event be kept to less than 0.5 seconds.
And yet, despite all these attempts to manufacture a space: it is lived in. People work here. People eat here. Their bodies spend millions of hours exchanging material with the unnatural environment.
One of my favorite quotes about space travel came from the solar inventor Steve Baer responding to late '70s fantasies of countercultural space colonies that were going to look like the northern California coast. "I see acres of air-conditioned Greyhound bus interior, glinting slightly greasy railings, old rivet heads needing paint," Baer wrote. "I don't hear the surf at Carmel and smell the ocean—I hear piped music and smell chewing gum."
Real talk: the Toronto underground is how space colonization would actually be. Come with me on a tour of the spaceship of the present.
* * *
There are so many memories of the topside, where giants roam.
Sophisticated life-support systems sustain all that's down here.
We remember the plants.
But they can't grow down here.
What I notice is the light in the ship. Golden:
From obelisks:
And reflecting off walls:
Orange neon:
And more blue:
Everything is jammed together.
We do not have the normal microbial interchanges, and so we worry about sickness.
And try to fix how things were outside more firmly.
But some things don't really change. Like food.
It is eaten in great halls called courts.
And work, which happens everywhere at all times.
And foot problems. They abide.
So does power.
But amid the torrential flow of these human lives, a few quiet spaces remain aboard the ship. Not quiet like the forest, but quiet like an elevator. We're not as comfortable among our own creations, but we can learn down here.
How to find peace.
Where it was not meant to be found.

Fabian Perez was born on November 2, 1967 in Buenos Aires, Argentina. As a teenager Fabian was fascinated with martial arts and fine arts. Therefore, he dedicated himself to study both disciplines. Karate helped influence his character giving him great discipline as well as opening him up to other forms of art. Much of what Fabian learned through his Eastern studies influenced his paintings.
Fabian left Argentina when he was 22 to live in Italy where he resided for seven years. It is here where his career in painting and writing took a transcendental journey. It is also in Italy where he was inspired to write his book "Reflections of a Dream", which was published later in the United States. He then went to Japan where he lived for one year. While there he painted The Japanese Flag and A Meditating Man which are on display in a government house. Fabian left Japan to come to Los Angeles where he devotes his life to inspire others with his paintings and writings.
Fabian's style is unique. He wishes not to categorize his work as he feels this limits the artist as well as the work. He likes to paint with acrylic because it dries quickly and this allows him to follow his impulses. The bold and symbolic imagery feels intensely passionate. Fabian paints with his emotions and each painting reflects his drive and energy. The paintings become a roadmap, a guide with many directions, where the viewers decide which path they wish to experience.
"It's been thirty years that my wheels travel on a sandy road. In my tracks, I've left things behind, and lost many others. As the wheels turn I can see a road ahead, that will take me to many new experiences."
You can add Perez's ethereal art work to your collection by contacting our local art galleries located in both Irvine and Laguna Beach. Featuring the work of dozens of today's artists, Village Gallery is the top choice among California art collectors.
