From: The State Board of Education;
State Superintendent of Education Dr. Tommy Bice announced results that show
major increases over the last five years in the number of Alabama public school
students passing math, science and English Advanced Placement* (AP) exams,
ranking Alabama number one among all fifty states in percent increases. Additionally, the results show even higher
percentage increases in math, science and English qualifying scores for
minority students, ranking Alabama as number two among all fifty states in
percent increases for minorities.
Governor Bentley, who was unable to attend
the event, sent a video-taped message to AP students and teachers attending the
celebration saying, "I'm proud that Alabama students are enrolling and
succeeding in AP classes at unprecedented rates."
Alabama State Department of Education (ALSDE) and A+ College Ready have
partnered in implementing the Advanced
Placement Training and Incentive Program (APTIP), which has driven increased
enrollment and qualifying score results for 76 high schools across the state
participating in the program in the 2012-13 school year. The results show that program schools
achieved a 101% average increase in passing Advanced Placement* (AP) scores, 14
times the national average, their first year of participation and continue to
improve each year.
ALSDE has invested heavily in AP in the state by providing significant funds
for the APTIP program, which has
expanded to 97 high schools across the state this year. In the class of 2012, 1000 more
graduates succeeded on AP exams than even took the exam in the class of
2002. "Our investment in increasing rigor in our high schools through AP is
paying off, said Dr. Bice. "Alabama is making significant gains toward closing
the achievement gap among traditionally under-represented students and better
preparing all students for college, work and adulthood in the 21st
Senator Trip Pittman,
who helped secure additional funding for AP in the last legislative session,
announced the 21 new high schools that will participate in the initiative for
the next three years.
The 21 new high schools selected
through a competitive application process to participate in the Advanced
Placement Training and Incentive Program include:
The APTIP program is the result of a public-private partnership that includes
funds from the Alabama legislature and the State Board of Education, the National
Math and Science Initiative and additional matching funds from Alabama donors
including Alabama Power Foundation, Regions Inc., Boeing and ExxonMobil
along with other corporations, foundations and individual donors across the
2013-14, the ALSDE/A+ College Ready AP Initiative supports 97 schools in 43
districts and expands access in AP
math, science and English classes for all students; provides increased time on
task for students through special study sessions; and includes intensive
teacher training, support from master teachers and stipends for teachers and

The author reviews the results of twin studies of schizophrenia from the
perspective of recent advances in our understanding of the twin method and
of the transmission of schizophrenia. The evidence suggests that twin
studies of schizophrenia are not likely to be substantially biased by the
greater similarity in social environment of identical versus fraternal
twins. Raw concordance figures from twin studies of schizophrenia are quite
variable. When models to estimate the etiologic importance of genetic
factors are applied to these figures, the results from all studies are
similar. According to these models, genetic factors are as etiologically
important in schizophrenia as in such medical conditions as diabetes and
hypertension. Twin studies of schizophrenia probably provide a valid
measure of the major etiologic role genetic factors play in

Tsunami debris can carry non-native plants and animals
Published on Wed, Apr 24, 2013 by
Ian Ferguson
Read More
Debris from the March 2011 tsunami in Japan is washing up on the shores of the Pacific Northwest, and experts say the biggest potential threat from the sea trash might be the stowaways onboard: foreign species of plants and animals that could be invasive.
A 185-ton floating dock washed up on a beach in Olympic National Park in January with nearly 90 species of barnacles, snails, algae and other sea life living on it. According to NOAA's Response and Restoration blog, 30 – 50 of those species were native to Japan but not the United States. Responders scraped the organic materials off the hulk of metal and concrete and sprayed the dock with a diluted bleach solution to decontaminate it.
On March 22, an 18-foot skiff washed up in Long Beach, Washington with 5-inch fish living inside it. They were identified as striped beakfish (Oplegnathus fasciatus), which typically live in reefs off Japan. The fish survived the 5,000-mile journey across the Pacific Ocean in a small, submerged compartment onboard the boat. One of the fish was taken to an aquarium in Oregon and the other four were euthanized.
"We're treating anything that's non-native as potentially invasive," said Washington State Department of Ecology (DOE) spokesman Curt Hart. "There's always a risk they'll become established and outcompete native species. We also don't know if they might harbor microscopic bacteria or other things that could be harmful to the local environment."
With a $270 million statewide shellfish industry, the DOE and other agencies in the Washington State Marine Debris Task Force aren't taking any chances with organisms found on potential tsunami debris.
"We're euthanizing anything that's non-native," Hart said.
The March 2011 tsunami hit Japan following a magnitude 9.0 earthquake near the coast of the Oshika Peninsula. The wave reached heights of 133 feet and inundated 217 square miles of land, killing nearly 16,000 people and sweeping millions of tons of debris – houses, cars, docks, sailboats and countless other material – into the Pacific.
According to National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), an estimated 70 percent of that debris sank near Japan. The remaining 30 percent floated away and dispersed across the Pacific Ocean, with the wind carrying some objects to the Pacific Northwest coast as early as winter 2011-2012. A map of floating debris sightings published on the NOAA website shows the highest concentration in an area between the Hawaiian Islands and the Pacific Northwest. Tsunami debris is expected to continue to arrive on Washington shores over the next couple of years, but Hart said little if any of it will make its way through the straight of Juan de Fuca and into Puget Sound.
"Everything we've found so far has really been concentrated on our outer coast," he said. "That's not to say there couldn't be debris in the interior waterways, but the wind and water currents make that pretty unlikely."
According to the state department of health, it's also unlikely any of the tsunami debris is radioactive. Radiation experts have tested thousands of debris items and found no elevated levels of radiation.
Residents who spot marine debris on the coast are encouraged to call the Washington state marine debris reporting hotline at 855/WACOAST.

Fellini's Book of Dreams to Come to Life in Beverly Hills
Beverly Hills, CA (January 16, 2009) — Making its United States premiere, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' new exhibition "Fellini's Book of Dreams" will delve into legendary writer-director Federico Fellini's writings and drawings of his dreams and fantasies on Saturday, January 24, in the Academy's Grand Lobby Gallery in Beverly Hills. Admission is free.
Featuring two original notebooks and more than 100 reproductions of original pages from Fellini's Book of Dreams, the exhibition will include many images that inspired his most celebrated films.
Fellini began the notebooks in the 1960s and continued adding to them until 1990, three years before his death at the age of 73. The exhibition also will showcase numerous self-portraits, celebrity caricatures and film clips.
A 12-time Oscar® nominee (four nominations for directing, eight for writing) and a 1992 Honorary Award recipient, Fellini directed four films that won Academy Awards® in the Foreign Language Film category: "La Strada" (1956), "Nights of Cabiria" (1957), "8½" (1963) and "Amarcord" (1974). He was widely known for exploring facets of his subconscious through his art; by actively embracing his dream life, he gave himself the opportunity to explore themes that later played out in his films, including eroticism, religion, terror and love.
The exhibition is being presented in collaboration with the Fondazione Federico Fellini and the Fondazione Cinema per Roma.
"Fellini's Book of Dreams" will be on display through Sunday, April 19. The Academy's Grand Lobby Gallery, located at 8949 Wilshire Boulevard in Beverly Hills, is open Tuesday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and weekends, noon to 6 p.m.

They didn't use spraypaint. Instead, this vandalism let tires and horsepower do the dirty work,turning a pristine right field into a mangled mess.
"For someone tocome in to have come in having fun, goofing off and cause damage to it, itsextremely frustrating," said Michael Stavres, Winter Haven director ofcommunity services.
It likely happened lateFriday night or early Saturday morning; the vandals broke throug a maintenancegate.
The timing putsgroundskeepers up against the clock as the Russmatt Central Florida BaseballTournament kicks off next week. About200 college teams from across the country are heading to the Chain of Lakescomplex to play ball.
"When you have thesetypes of ruts, you have get bad hops where its deep, you twist an ankle or fallrunning for a ball; that's the last thing you want to have," Stavres said.
Crews are feverishlytrying to get the field back into playable condition by rolling it and adding asandy material to help re-grow the turf.
"Hall of famershave played on this same right field. You want to give them the sameexperience," he said.
An experience put injeopardy by some poor sports. WinterHaven police are busy working a few leads in this foul play.
"The damage to thecity property, it's upwards of $3,500 they could be facing significantcharges," said public information officer Jamie Brown.

More than 100 students graduated from the University of Arizona's College of Medicine tonight, with half of them choosing a career in family medicine.
For some graduates, available job opportunities from a doctor shortage played a part in their decision.
No matter what area of focus they choose, the grads said they were always inspired to heal.
Nearly 110 University of Arizona College of Medicine grads are about to begin the next phase of their careers.
"It was really neat knowing that what I wanted to do was going to really give back."
Graduate Lauren Bergstand is looking to fill a need.
"I grew up in Sholo, a small town in northern Arizona and saw first hand what it was like to not have enough physicians, enough primary care physicians to meet the need of a community."
According to the Arizona Department of Health Services, the state needs more than 300 primary care physicians to adequately serve the population, especially rural areas.
"I love continuity of care. I love getting to see the same patients year after year."
"It's really the culmination of many years of hard work and dedication," said graduate Brian Vander Werf. He has decided to take on a specialty: anesthesiology.
"It's something that I really fell in love with when I was in the military, and I knew that that's where I wanted to be. I wanted to be where somebody needed the care right then and there."
The specialty route is generally thought to be a higher-paying field, but Vander Werf says he was inspired by his military comrades.
"I had the privilege of being mentored by some really outstanding officers and they really ignited the spark."
About 60 percent of the graduates are women, a trend the college has seen for several years now.

Goa Beach Holidays: Bikini Destinations| Last Updated: May 14, 2013 at 4:34 PM
Holidays in Goa have become synonymous with sun, surf and sand. Unlike rest of India; beaches in Goa allow you the freedom to wear a bikini, the ideal beach wear, without people gawking at you.
As part of our Goa travel guide, we list three beaches ideal to enjoy the sea and the sun in your preferred beach wear.
A huge favourite with international tourists, especially Russians, the pristine white sands of Colva beach is the preferred hangout of the jet-set crowd. Terrific ambiance, cosmopolitan crowd and amazing food; promise to make your Colva experience a memorable one.
Colva is ideal to spend time doing nothing. Benaulim Beach, just a hop away from Colva, is a secluded sandy stretch devoid of the crowds.
Preferred by the foreign tourists, Colva allows you to sunbathe, swim in the sea or take leisurely strolls on the sandy stretch without the fear of peeping toms.
Ashwem Beach, North Goa
If you like to flaunt your body and hate people eyeballing you, then Ashwem is the beach to be. The beach enjoys a relaxed and laid-back setting and doesn't get too crowded.
It is one of the cleanest beaches. If you would like, you could choose to go for a quick swim in its waters which are also safe. You can enjoy the seclusion that the beach provides by reading a book or just strike a conversation with people who come here from across the world.
Arambol in Goa's far north, still retains vestiges of its hippie past. A fishing village, it has metamorphosed into a tourist favourite. You could do the usual beach stroll, swim in the sea or just laze around like in other beaches. Or else, you could spoil yourself with the alternative therapies that are offered, such as meditation, yoga, Tai Chi and Reiki.
The place boasts of a relaxed nightlife with jam sessions and live music. If the crowd proves too much, then walk towards the deserted Keri beach and the Terekhol Fort, just north of Arambol.

Democrat plans run for U.S. House seat
By GORDON JACKSON The Brunswick News A St. Simons Island man seeking the Democratic Party's nomination for the 1st District Congressional seat believes he knows how to defeat the incumbent Republican - Rep. Jack Kingston, who has held the office since 1992. "I'm a Ron Paul Democrat, not a Blue Dog Democrat," Nathan Russo said. "I am more conservative than Jack Kingston." Russo, 68, a lifelong bachelor and former owner of a public records abstract and appraisal business in New York City, said approval ratings for Congress are at an all-time low, making Kingston, the popular Republican from Savannah, vulnerable. Russo said job creation is his No. 1 priority, with health care reform a close second. "I have no objections to Obama care," he said. He wants to reintroduce the draft for people ages 18 to 20 for two years of service as a way to reduce pressure on the National Guard and increase patriotism and responsibility in America's youth. Russo said he won't vote along party lines but will rely on input from constituents before voting on issues. "I will be responsive to the people," he said. "Let me run on the issues and let Jack run on his voting record. The truth is something hard to run away from." Russo admits he has a challenge unseating Kingston, who has the experience, name recognition and financial support. "I'm 68 years old and have never held public office before," Russo said. "Some people have asked why I don't do something like run for county commission, but I'm too old to start at the bottom." He also decided to reveal details of a misdemeanor arrest in 2006 now, rather than risk having the information come out a few days before the election. According to an incident report from the Springdale, S.C. Police Department, Russo was arrested Nov. 16, 2006 after he warned some guests about an ongoing prostitution sting at a local motel where he was staying on the way to visit his mother in Kentucky. Russo was incarcerated two days until he paid a $1,062 fine for disorderly conduct and another $1,112 fine for interfering with police. Russo said he told some guests about the sting because he thought it was unethical for police to entrap people into committing a crime. He said he didn't contest the charges in court because he simply wanted the ordeal to end. If he wins his party's nomination and upsets Kingston, Russo said one of his first tasks will be to introduce legislation to cut pensions for congressmen by 10 percent. "The people in Congress have to show Americans they understand their pain," he said. "The middle class has been giving a long time. It's time for everyone else."

Letters to the Editor
I want to commend John Choulochas and his article in the latest edition of The Northern Light.
To revitalize downtown Blaine, one has to ask the question, what is there in Blaine that would make someone want to visit? Right now the answer is quite obvious, nothing.
What is in Blaine that one cannot find in Bellingham, LaConner, White Rock, etc.?
Once again, nothing. Driving through downtown Blaine, one might think they're in Hooterville, Arkansas.
The curb appeal of downtown Blaine is, to put it mildly, uninviting and ugly. I guess if one wants to go back to the 1940 it's O.K. It seems the property/business owners don't want to part with a penny to make improvements to the downtown. Yet these same property owners complain about the status of the city.
Blaine could be a unique community with lots of tourists with money. Blaine is a nice community, so why not make it a great one. Property/business owners and city fathers need to stop their whining and do something. A good example is just down the freeway, look at LaConner.

The numbers are finally in and I am excited to announce that this year's annual Dollars for Scholars Golf Tournament netted close to $15,000. Due to the generosity of so many of you, we were able to give out 19 scholarships to worthy seniors who are continuing their education in various fields.
There are too many people to thank individually, but a special thanks goes to our many sponsors, golfers, donors of merchandise for our raffle, and our volunteers. A variety of goods were donated by Totally Chocolate, Blaine Cost Cutter, Nature's Path, and Sound Beverage, that were enjoyed by all of our participants.
On behalf of our entire board, a thank you to Greg Avery, Jeff Robinson, Brett Armstrong, and Bonnie Onyon for your generosity. Our special community helps to support this wonderful cause year after year.

The Editor:
On July 12 I read, "County left without recourse in Drayton Harbor Road delay" by county executive, Pete Kremen. I was disappointed to see such a self-serving submission. The county executive would like to place all of the blame for the project delay on me and my decision to appeal the hearing examiner's decision.
Well, it was the county public works department that chose to have the public hearing at the end of May, leaving insufficient time for the required process. It was the county public works department that failed to give the legally required public notice for the project.
And, it is the county public works department that hasn't acquired all of the construction easements it needs from the many private property owners where most of the shoreline work will be performed prior to completing the repair.
I have real concerns with the Drayton Harbor Road repair, as do other property owners that live within the immediate vicinity of the proposed work.
There is a significant difference between actual notice and giving public notice according to the county's code. In addition, the county's violation of its own notice requirements resulted in a situation where the few area residents learning about the proposed work were unable to obtain basic environmental documents concerning the project before the hearing. It seems the only members of the public who knew the details of the project were residents of the Semiahmoo area.
Now that we finally have the documents we need to educate ourselves on the details of the project, we would like the hearing examiner, Mr. Kremen, and the prosecuting attorney to listen to our concerns. After all, isn't that the main reason for public notice?

The Editor:
I realize writing letters to the editor is just as unproductive as writing letters to congressmen or governors. But I'm sending a copy of this to our governor anyway.
Regarding your article about Blaine's shut-down liquor store and Nicole Perry's being chosen to open a contract store. It seems to me something is very wrong with employees of the Liquor Control Board. They had no problem issuing a liquor license for the Nooksack Tribe's north of Lynden casino against almost unanimous opposition from county officials. Now taxpayers are going to have to pay legal costs to combat that decision. If I were a cynic I might think some wampum passed under the table.
As I understand it, Nicole Perry was willing to take the
risk of opening a contract liquor store and seems to have
had her facts and figures down well enough to be the number
one choice for the store. Then with new owners of the mall
her costs would have escalated. She has an opportunity
to open a store downtown at a lesser cost.
Mr. Dave Wilson, regional manager for the liquor board, without consulting anyone in Blaine government, and "spending a week in Birch Bay" writes off the downtown for a liquor store.
If he drove around a little and counted homes and apartments he would have determined the buying population is on the west side of the truck crossing – and most people hate the experience of driving east of the mall.
Too often I have seen those willing to take the risk be stepped on by someone who has a lifetime of feeding off the public trough.

The Sheriff's Department said the first semi jackknifed in the southbound lanes about 6:30 near the scales, blocking southbound traffic. A little later, two semis jackknifed near Wagner's RV at Cleveland, blocking both northbound lanes. The southbound lanes were cleared quickly, but the northbound lanes remained blocked at Cleveland until about 8 o'clock. At one point, traffic was backing up into Sheboygan County. Roads throughout the area remains snow-covered and slippery and there are some visibility problems due to blowing and drifting.

The planned 1-GW London Array wind farm that, upon completion, will be the largest offshore wind farm in the world, is again moving forward after some financial difficulties. The project's investors began doubting the project and cialis buycialis onlin recently asked for a bailout, but it seems investors have now agreed to provide $3 billion in funding for the next phase of the project.
According to one of the investors, E.ON UK, increased support for offshore wind power from the UK government has made the project financially viable once again.
The wind farm will be located in the Thames Estuary and the www.boehler.org first 630-MW phase of the project should be up and running for the 2012 Olympics. When the entire wind farm is complete, it will supply power for 750,000 homes and prevent the emission of 1.9 million metric tonnes of CO2 a year.

Riverside, the Farnsley-Moremen Landing, is a 300-acre historic farm site on the Ohio River, with an 1837 home as its centerpiece. For most of the 19th Century, an active riverboat landing on the farm allowed people traveling by river to stop to trade goods, to take on boilerwood for fuel, or to rest. Today, visitors to Riverside may tour the historic home and grounds, which include a reconstructed detached kitchen, ongoing archaeological excavations, a modern Visitors Center, gardens, and a riverboat landing. Information is available at 502/935-6809 or www.riverside-landing.org.

text: The fifth annual TEDxDetroit conference was held Wednesday at the newly renovated Cobo Center. TED stands for technology, entertainment and design. The one-day event features lectures and performances from people from all walks of life who aren't afraid to think outside of the box. "The idea is, if you bring a bunch of 'thinkers' and 'doers' together, and give them fresh inputs, those charged particles bounce together and create something new," conference spokesperson Charlie Wolborg says. "The only way we can fix our challenges is to think our way out of it." About one thousand people were chosen to attend the conference, including major firms that showed off new technology like the highly-anticipated "Google Glass," a computer eyepiece.Detroit's young talent also introduced new ideas that could be the next big thing, such as College Tour LLC. The group goes to college campuses and records video tours by students for other potential students to watch. Young 10-year-old Asia Newson also introduced her budding business to the world, Super-Business Girl. She tells Fox 2's Alexis Wiley she teaches young people how to make and manage their own money, so "we won't have to ask our parents for everything."For more information on TEDxDetroit click here.

Flower Girl Dress
April 18, 2013
I purchased this dress for my daughter to be a flower girl for a wedding. What I loved most about it is that it teaches you to properly measure her before choosing size. For example: based on my daughter's age she would be a 4, however, after measuring her, I realized she was a size 2. The dress is beautiful and she loved it! The dress has so many options as far as colors for both the rose and the sash. It was super economical considering that she would probably only wear it once. The dresses at David's Bridal alone are going for $109 without shoes or sash. I paid around $50 for both the dress with everything and the shoes. Well worth it! I recommend it 100%.
Pros:Quality Sash/Flower Color Options Pricing Shipping was fast

I ordered this dress for my daughter. She will be in my wedding in September and I was looking for a dress that would compliment my dress as well as my bridesmaids. The ivory matches mine and the fuscia is the exact color of the bridesmaid dresses. This is the second time I've ordered from this company and it has been such a smooth process both times. Quick delivery and great prices!

Good Quality Dress
August 2, 2012
I ordered 4 of these dresses for my flower girls for my wedding. I love that you can customize the sash color & flower color. ( I chose true red sash & white flower, and it couldn't look any sharper ) The price on these dresses was awesome , they are cheaper than Sears & anywhere else I looked. You would be very happy with the quality of this dress, I don't have a negative thing to say about it. Very happy with this purchase. I ordered a size 2 for girls aged 26 months & ordered a size 6 for girls aged 4.5 & 5. Dress length is long so theres lots of room for growth. I paid 45 dollars for shipping to Canada which isn't really too bad considering what you are getting. The only thing to be aware of if you are ordering from Canada though is customs charges, there was an additional $29 for that, that I wasnt counting on.
Pros:quality sizing timely shipping ability to customize

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- An index of sentiment among homebuilders is expected to tick higher to 48 in February from 47 in January, according to economists surveyed by MarketWatch. Sentiment was unchanged in January, remaining at the highest level in more than six years. The builders' sentiment gauge has been climbing up for months on low inventories, and increasing sales and price trends. However, the index remains below a key reading of 50. Readings over 50 indicate that more builders see sales conditions as good than poor. Sentiment levels among homebuilders are up 88% from a year earlier. The National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo Housing Market Index will be released at 10 a.m. The release typically isn't market moving.

S. Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., has called for regime change in Syria, a goal that would broaden the proposed mission in that country beyond limited strikes to deter the future use of chemical weapons. "What we envision are two things," Sen. Durbin said. "First that we use cruise missiles, other bombs perhaps, to hit those military targets in Syria to stop Bashar Assad from continuing to use those deadly chemical weapons and number two that we continue through our allies and directly supporting the opposition troops so that ultimately Assad is gone." Sen. Durbin voted Wednesday as a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee in favor of granting to military authorization requested President Barack Obama to strike Bashar al-Assad's Syrian regime. The committee voted 10-7 in favor of the military authorization, clearing the way for a vote by the full Senate next week. The resolution included an amendment introduced by Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., and Sen. Chris Coon, D-Del., that could broaden the mission beyond missile strikes aimed at destroying the Syrian government's ability to use chemical weapons. "It is the policy of the United States to change the momentum on the battlefield in Syria so as to create favorable conditions for a negotiated settlement that ends the conflict and leads to a democratic government in Syria," the amendment stated. Speaking at a news conference in Thomson about the federal government's plans for the empty prison there, Sen. Durbin indicated that he supported the amendment. "We want to make sure that the forces for change in Syria are successful and what Sen. McCain is looking for is more support for the opposition, the vetted opposition," he said. "Some parts of the opposition are not friends of the United States but many parts, most of them, are. So we want to provide additional support for those opposition forces so that they can bring real change to Syria." Some of the rebels fighting the Assad regime are understood to be linked to al-Qaeda and other fundamentalist groups. United Nations investigators have yet to conclude their investigation into the alleged chemical weapons attack by the Syrian regime last month that triggered the debate on intervention. A slew of polls conducted in recent days have found wide opposition among the American public to a military intervention in Syria. Sen. Durbin acknowledged the opposition and said it was understandable in the wake of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. "We were told there was weapons of mass destruction therefore we had to invade. It wasn't true," Sen. Durbin said of the Iraq war. "Secondly, when it came to the war in Afghanistan, we were going to go after the people who were behind 9/11. It turned out to be the longest war in American history."

The Rangers were loose and enjoying themselves---as evidenced by the fun shootout showdown and subsequent trash-talking between Brandon Prust and Martin Biron---during their 20-minute full-team practice at Madison Square Garden on Thursday afternoon. If there was an residual pain from losing 5-3 to the Devils in Game 5 the night before, it was not apparant, even though the players are well aware that---trailing New Jersey 3-2 in the Eastern Conference Finals---one more loss and their season is over.
"We have a belief in each other and a belief in our system," explained Ryan McDonagh after practice. "We can only focus on one game at a time here, and bringing that same intensity that we had throughout most of (Game 5). We just believe in each other, and believe we can accomplish it."
No Ranger who spoke to the media on Thursday wished to replicate Mark Messier's famous "guarantee" from 1994---when The Captain said the Rangers would win Game 6 in New Jersey and would bring it home for a seventh and deciding game of the Eastern Conference Finals.
When asked about making a guarantee, team captain Ryan Callahan laughed and said, "No, no. Nothing of that nature."
Head coach John Tortorella was a bit more serious when asked about the similarities between this situation and the one the Rangers faced in the 1994 conference finals.
"Not to disrespect what happened there, but it has nothing to do with how we are preparing," Tortorella stated flatly.
While Mike Rupp said what happened in '94 is an amazing memeory and moment in Rangers' history, this current crew of Blueshirts needed to create its own magic, and not look back 18 years for inspiration. And he looked around the dressing room and said it's impossible to know who the next hero would be.
"That's what's awesome about this time of the year, it doesn't matter where you are as far as the first line or fourth line, we're all pulling the same way and someone is going to come through and be a hero for some team," explained Rupp, who scored the Stanley Cup-winning goal in the Devils most recent championship season of 2003. "In '94 that was a great moment in this city for this franchise, and there are those moments all the time every year for particular franchises. It's a chance now for all of us to be that guy."
During his session with the media Thursday, Tortorella emphasized that he believed Henrik Lundqvist---who allowed four goals for the first time in these playoffs in Game 5---"will play his best game tomorrow night". He made a similar statement about Brad Richards. And also stated that he felt "we found our game last night."
The Rangers are 3-0 in playoff elimination games, so far, this spring.

It wasn't quite as entertaining this go-round.
It's a little hard to watch the Phillies play the Rays without thinking back to 2008 and the World Series. It's also a little hard to think back to 2008 without wondering what exactly it is that's wrong with the Phillies. And the answer is that there's more than one thing wrong. They aren't playing well. They don't hit well and don't pitch well. They make absurd mental mistakes that we've almost never seen from the team. They don't notice as the batter who just walked runs to second. They forget how many outs there are on a fly ball and cost the team a run by getting doubled-off of first. They flip the ball to the wrong base a little too late, keeping an inning alive.
The Phillies are 37-33 on the season after losing two of three to Tampa Bay. They are in first place in the NL East, but lead the Mets by a half game and are just one game ahead of the Marlins. They have lost eight of their last nine and ten of their last twelve.
The Phillies pounded the Rays 10-1 in the first game of the series. The Phils scored six times in the first inning, getting a three-run homer from Mayberry. Moyer pitched very well, allowing just one run over six innings. Walker and Escalona came on after Moyer and gave the Phils three innings of scoreless relief.
Tampa Bay took game two 7-1, but things were a lot closer than that before the Rays blew the game open late. Blanton pitched very well, but Matt Garza shut down the Phils. Tampa started the top of the eighth with a 2-1 lead — they should have been kept off the board in the frame, but a Rollins misplay with two outs and the bases loaded kept them alive. They went on to score five times in the inning.
The Phils lost game three 10-4. They jumped out to a 4-0 lead in the top of the first, but Bastardo gave back three in first and three more in the second before leaving in the fourth inning with a shoulder problem. It made for a long day for the pen. They were called on to throw 4 1/3 innings and allowed four runs.
Awful pitching from the Phils in the series. In 25 innings they threw to a 6.48 ERA with a 1.48 ratio. They allowed 32 hits and walked 14.
They got two good starts, one from Moyer and one from Blanton, and an awful start from Bastardo. As a group the three threw 16 2/3 innings to a 4.86 ERA and a 1.56 ratio.
Moyer went six innings in game one, allowing a run on five hits, two singles and three doubles, and three walks. Four of his last five starts have been good. He's allowed just three home runs in his last 31 innings after allowing 13 over 48 1/3 innings to start the season.
Blanton allowed two runs over seven innings in game two, giving the Phils their fourth-straight quality start. He struck out ten while allowing six hits and two walks. He has been fantastic recently. Over his last six starts he has a 2.75 ERA and a 1.14 ratio over 39 1/3 innings. He's gone seven innings in four of his last six starts.
Bastardo was unimpressive in game three as the Phils gave him an early lead and he gave it right back. He allowed six runs over 3 2/3 innings on seven hits, including two home runs, and three walks. Over his last three starts he has allowed 14 earned runs in 11 2/3 innings (10.80 ERA) with a 1.80 ratio. Even if he was healthy enough to make his next start you would have to wonder if the Phils would have been ready to give someone else a try.
The relief pitching was atrocious. 9.72 ERA with a 2.40 ratio in 8 1/3 innings. They didn't allow a home run, but gave up 14 hits and six walks. Walker and Escalona were very good in game one, but Romero and Park got hit hard in game two and Durbin in game three. Taschner also allowed a run on two hits and a walk in game three.
Romero entered game two in the bottom of the eighth with the Phils down 2-1 after BJ Upton doubled off of Blanton to start the frame. He gave up a single to send Upton to third, bringing up Willy Aybar with nobody out. Aybar hit a fly ball to Stairs in left for the second out and Stairs threw Upton out tagging from third. Crawford held second. Romero hit Carlos Pena with a pitch and then walked Ben Zobrist, loading the bases with two down. Park relieved Romero to pitch to the righty Burrell.
Awful outing for Romero, but he would have gotten out of it with his ERA unscathed if the inning had ended when Park got Burrell to ground to Rollins. He didn't, as it turned out, and Romero was charged with three earned runs in the game.
Through the appearance he had walked 11 in 9 2/3 innings this season.
Taschner pitched the seventh inning of game three with the Phillies down 9-4. He allowed a triple a walk and a double in the frame and was lucky to give up just one run in the inning.
Over his last four appearances Taschner has allowed seven earned runs on 12 hits and four walks. That's a 12.60 ERA and a 3.20 ratio. He's not pitching very well.
Escalona lowered his ERA for the season to 3.38 with a 1-2-3 in the ninth inning of game one with the Phils up 10-1.
He's pitching a whole lot better than Taschner, but lost his spot on the roster when Lidge returned.
Durbin entered game three yesterday in the bottom of the fourth with two outs, men on first and second and the Phils down 6-4. He struck Burrell out to get out of the inning. He came back for the fifth and got the first two before allowing two singles and a walk to load the bases. He struck out Dioner Navarro to leave the runners stranded. He returned for the sixth. Tampa Bay loaded the bases on a double and two walks. With two outs and the bases full, Tyler Walker relieved Durbin with the bases full and Jason Bartlett at the plate. Walker allowed back-to-back singles, so all three runners scored with the runs charged to Durbin.
Durbin has been charged with runs in each of his last three appearances, allowing five runs in four innings.
Park entered game two in the bottom of the eighth with two outs, the bases loaded and the Phils down 2-1. He got Burrell to hit a ground ball to short, but the ball was slowly hit and Rollins' toss to second was not in time to force Ben Zobrist. Rollins almost surely would have had Burrell if he had gone to first. 3-1 with the bases loaded. Jason Bartlett followed and blooped a two-run single to right. 5-1. Gabe Gross was next and he doubled to right, driving in two more runs to make it 7-1, but was thrown out going for third to end the inning.
Walker pitched the seventh and eighth innings of game one with a 10-1 lead. He allowed three singles but no runs.
He also pitched in game three, entering in the bottom of the sixth with two outs, the Phils down 6-4 and the bases loaded to face Bartlett. He allowed an RBI-single to Bartlett and Aybar followed with a two-run single that made it 9-4. Victorino threw Aybar out at second to end the inning.
Another outing for Walker where the runs he helps allow are charged to another pitcher. He has a 0.00 ERA and a 1.60 ratio with the Phils in five appearances.
Madson pitched the eighth inning of game three with the Phillies down 10-4. He allowed a single and walk but kept the Rays off the board.
Lidge took Escalona's roster spot for game three but did not pitch.
Nobody in the pen has thrown more than one day in a row. Durbin threw 54 pitches last night and Taschner 35, so I would guess you won't be seeing either of them tonight.
The Phillies scored 15 runs in the three-game series.
Rollins made a great play in game one and a miserable play in game two. In game one he made a great catch on a ball off the catwalk. With two outs and the bases loaded in the bottom of the eighth in game two, Burrell hit a slow ground ball to short. Rollins had time to get Burrell at first, but instead underhanded to second and the runner beat it out, allowing a run to score. The Rays blew the game open from there.
He didn't start last night. 0-for-9 in the series. 0-for-his-last-19. He's hitting 211/254/328 for the year.
Victorino was 2-for-10 with three walks in the series. 300/366/456 for the year.
Utley was 4-for-11 with a double and a home run in the series. He's hitting 300/430/555 for the season. One home run in his last 51 at-bats.
Howard was 2-for-11 with two doubles and three RBI. 254/329/551. He has one home run in his last 37 at-bats.
Werth grounded into a big double-play in game two of the set. With the Phils down 2-0, Matt Garza walked the bases loaded to start the fourth inning. Werth came to the plate and swung at the first pitch, hitting a ground ball to third that the Rays turned into a third to home to first double-play. 3-for-11 with a home run in the series. He's at 257/344/460 for the year.
Feliz was 2-for-11 with two singles in the series. 289/332/398. He's 4-for-his-last-35 with four singles. He has one walk since May 23 and has gotten 112 at-bats since May 23.
Mayberry started the first game of the series and was 2-for-5 with a home run in the set. 320/346/760 in 25 at-bats on the year.
Coste played first base in game one with Howard at DH. 1-for-5 in the series. 242/337/396 for the year.
Ruiz caught all three games of the series and went 1-for-10 with a single and four strikeouts. 248/359/391 for the season.
Bruntlett started at shortstop yesterday with Rollins on the bench. He's not really the guy you want starting against a righty like Sonnanstine, what with the career .276 on-base percentage against righties. 0-for-4 with a strikeout in the series. 145/234/218 for the year.
Dobbs played first base in games two and three. 3-for-8 with three singles in the set. His line is up to 233/288/425 on the season. He's hitting 343/333/657 in June without a walk.
Stairs started in left in game two and threw Upton out trying to tag and score from third in the bottom of the eighth inning with the Phillies down 2-1. He also started in left in game three. 2-for-5 with a double in the series. 288/431/500 in 52 at-bats for the season. He's on pace to get 120 at-bats for the year.
Bako did not play in the series and is 1-for-3 with the Phils on the season.
Burrell played for Tampa Bay in the series. 3-for-11 with a double, a home run and four RBI. He's hitting 243/354/324 on the season. Coming into the series he hadn't had an extra-base hit since May 2 against the Red Sox.

As the story goes in Tulum, a family of fisherman found a way to spark daily bustling at their restaurant in the pueblo by serving fresh fish, shrimp and octopus for very good prices. You can see the fisherman scaling the fish while you're waiting in line for the next table, fresh tortilla chips are carried out of the fryer by the trash bag load, and remember to be assertive when arriving so you're not left out in the sun.
