Is the heart overlooked when it comes to intelligence?
The center of the nervous system, the brain, has been popularly defined as the fundamental core of intellectual activity. Yet, in my Bioelectricity class with Professor Nina Tandon, we learned about recent research suggesting that information processing in the body may in fact be more distributed.
For example, there is increasing evidence suggesting that the cardioelectromagenetic field can actually affect human beings in close proximity.These signals are stronger in amplitude when in direct contact, but are still detectable up to several feet away from the source. Through these interactions, the heart transfers energies between human beings. The heart can therefore be characterized as the engine for distributing and controlling energy of the human body.
These extraordinary results illustrate that the heart is not only responsible for blood regulations, but is also a very powerful intelligence system.
This made me wonder, could intelligence be distributed through the body in ways we might not expect? Could this information sent to the brain perhaps even influence emotional states? Or provide insight into some of the unexplained links between "mental" and "bodily" diseases (eg Alzheimer's and cardiac disease etc)?
See: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3547419/
and http://books.google.com/books?id=pvkpdNHhI6cC for more details
Given that the heart and other organs are frequently excluded from the
intellectual discussion, I would like to ask the Ted community, how do
these new findings affect how we view intelligence? How will our
interactions with each other differ if we view more of our bodies as

Apr 17 2013: I can safely assume that the bulk of information processing happens in the Central Nervous System (CNS), especially when it comes to bodily action that relate to consciousness.
This does not mean that our whole body affects and co-influences our CNS. Our hormones and sensors give a lot of information and influence what we do and think.
I do agree that we do not fully understand all the interactions between all our organs (I think the possible permutations are staggering)
we know that food influences our moral decisions (judges give smaller punishments after a snack).
On a cell level, we can assume there is a lot of regulation and communication going on (with surrounding cells).
Still, it's nerve cells who are speciallized in information processing and passing it on to the other nerve cels
So is there a possibility our heart "thinks"? I don't think so. The article refers to a nerve nucleus: It's function certainy is information processing (as our gut-brain does as well). But the number of cells there probably indicates that it's contribution [to intelligence] cannot be as big as that of the CNS
As for the cardio-electromagnetic field theory... I am very sceptical about that (I see it pop up more often in pseudo-science and new-age than in actual scientific research)
Apr 17 2013: I agree with you Christophe. But I think it's a pity. It looks like just because some people use pseudo-scientific attempts to correlate heart with intelligence, scientists shy away from examining it critically.
Intelligence is under appreciated in my opinion. You are right that information processing is primarily done by CNS and there is no denying that for humans CNS is pretty developed. But what exactly is intelligence?
I think we always define intelligence with the idea of a goal or purpose in mind. A person can be very intelligent while grasping a physical reality and very dumb while managing relationships or emotions. I broached the subject of emotional intelligence in this context.
Purely biologically, where propagation of genes is the ultimate purpose, an organism that has traded a developed and complex CNS for a survival related adaptive trait that helps it to continue for millions of years, can be viewed as biologically intelligent.
I may be wrong, but it appears to me that our idea of intelligence is too outwardly directed, so much that we often say our brain decides this or that, and 'we' are relegated to a living corpse. Can it it be so there is another kind of intelligence within our body, among our organs, a mind blowing concert between different parts of our body to achieve seemingly mundane tasks like drinking a glass of water?
I think that is a very interesting and useful question to ask. I just hope scientists of future will take this question seriously.

Mo Williams didn't watch game film when he played for the Clippers. Not on his own, like he does now. Not on a laptop computer on late-night flights or in hotel rooms.
"I wasn't asked to," the Jazz's point guard said.
Sacramento at UtahFriday, 7 p.m.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
Williams, who is in his second stint with the Jazz and a pending free agent, knows things are different for him here. In Los Angeles, he was expected to score in bunches off the bench, backing up Chris Paul. In Utah, Williams' job is more nuanced, and he has some catching up to do 10 years into his career. Williams watches each of the Jazz's games and every upcoming opponent's previous two games.
"My job was easy last year," Williams said. "All I had to do was come in and provide a spark to the team. I wasn't happy because I felt like I could have gave a lot more, but for that team, that's what they wanted me to do."
Williams, a shoot-first point guard who replaced the like-minded Devin Harris, is attempting what almost is impossible for a veteran player: a rethinking of the way he plays the game. On a team loaded with young talent, Williams is no longer responsible just for getting his own shot as he was in L.A., and to a lesser extent in previous stops in Cleveland and Milwaukee, but also for helping young players get shots and develop their own games.
"I remember when he first got here, he said he wanted to show all the doubters that he could be a pass-first point guard," Jazz center Al Jefferson said.
The transition has been awkward at times. Williams has attempted more shots than all but three NBA point guards (154) despite missing a game with one of the two injuries that nags him. And he is hoisting 14 attempts per game to average 14.9 points. But Williams also averages 6.8 assists (his career average is 4.9), which forward Marvin Williams said is evidence that the point guard is finding a good balance.
"There are scoring point guards out there that average 3 assists and 17 points," Marvin Williams said. "We don't have that problem on this team."
Mo Williams distributed 14 assists, one off his career high, in a triple overtime victory in Toronto on Nov. 12, but he made one of his most visible errors two nights later. With the Jazz trailing by four in Boston, Williams missed a transition 3-pointer on the heels of having made one despite having Randy Foye in the corner and Paul Millsap running through the lane. Boston closed the game on a run and beat the Jazz 98-93.
The shot was criticized by coach Tyrone Corbin, who called it a "home run hit" and said Williams knew immediately it was the wrong choice.
"I'm not questioning whether he can make it," Corbin said. "Just whether it was the right time."
Earlier this month, Williams scored 15 points in a quarter against San Antonio and was heralded for his aggressiveness.
"He's going to miss some, too," Gordon Hayward said, "but you have to live with that."
Earl Watson, the Jazz's longest-tenured point guard, said Williams has adjusted well, but that changing teams — and styles and mentalities — is the toughest thing for a point guard.
However, Watson said Williams doesn't get enough credit for playing through a strained right adductor, which forced him to miss a Nov. 10 win over Phoenix, or an injured right thumb, which he suffered Nov. 12 in Toronto.
"When you play with an injury," Watson said, "no one judges you off being injured. Everyone looks at you and holds you accountable as if you were healthy, and that's just not a reality."
Williams tries to compensate with effort and, as part of that, watching and rewatching games. He's still learning his new team 12 games into the season.
"I think that was my biggest adjustment," he said, "kind of knowing where to get these guys the ball. Want to call the right plays for them to get shots."

Sony phone to be first product placement on E4's Made In Chelsea
Sony has signed to be the first product placement partner for E4's 'Made In Chelsea' reality show, in a deal to include its Xperia Z1 Compact phone, brokered by Mediacom and Channel 4 Sales.
Made in Chelsea: Sony sponsors extra content on show's site
Six cast members of the reality show will be seen using the product, including resident lothario Spencer Matthews and Alex Mytton. The cast will showcase the functions of the handset and its different available colours.
Rob Ramsey, partnership leader at Channel 4, said: "Xperia Z1 Compact is a perfect product placement partner for' Made in Chelsea'. The 'Made in Chelsea' cast are socially active, fun-loving and contemporary making them ideal brand advocates."
The partnership will also include weekly behind-the-scenes content from 'Made in Chelsea' which will be screened on Channel4.com and produced on the Xperia Z1 Compact.
Catherine Cherry, marketing director for Sony Mobile North West Europe, said: "As our brand continues to grow, this type of placement allows broader strategic targeting, accessing a wider and more female demographic. The ability to film content using the device is also testament to its power, being the only compact smartphone that doesn't compromise on features."
The partnership with Sony builds on recent Channel 4 collaborations, including Kenco and 'Sunday Brunch' and Uncle Ben's and Yeo Valley's partnership with 'Jamie's Fifteen Minute Meals'.
Earlier this month, Boohoo.com, the online fashion retailer became the first commercial partner of a Channel 4-commissioned game by signing up to sponsor the channel's 'Made in Chelsea' game.

After successfully rebooting Mortal Kombat in 2011, Ed Boon and his team at Netherrealm Studios return with Injustice: Gods Among Us, which sees DC comics heroes and villains duke it out. You can tell that this is a fighter from the MK team, but Injustice is more than a simple wardrobe change - it is a superb fighting game, and one of the best titles of the year so far.
There's gotta be a reason for these different characters coming together in one game and fight, right? Yes there is, one that is explained in Injustice's entertaining story mode. The gist of it is that the Joker is about to set off a nuke in the middle of Metropolis, and as our heroes are rushing to stop him they get pulled through to another dimension. In this new dimension, which is effectively a parallel universe, Joker used some kind of mind-altering drug on Superman and had him kill Lois Lane (and their unborn baby, yeesh) thinking that he was fighting Doomsday. Joker also successfully nuked Metropolis and all this made Superman lose his mind, killing the joker, and becoming a dictator that rules the world with an iron fist. Got all that?
To be honest the story is weak. It does however serve its purpose excellently by setting up the narrative for the story mode, and what makes this setup enjoyable is all the interactions between the characters. The dialogue is genuinely enjoyable most of the time, with plenty of snappy one-liners, and banter which really lets the characters' personality shine through. Anyone who played through the most recent Mortal Kombat story will feel familiar with how it plays out. There are 12 chapters, each one following a designated character through a few fights. You'll be able to beat it in a couple of hours, but nonetheless it's a lot of fun, and a good way to get to know some of the characters' basics.
S.T.A.R. Labs missions is reminiscent of MK's challenge tower, where character-specific missions provides you with various challenges that you can complete for xp and various unlocks. Speaking of unlocks and MK, Injustice also has its very own equivalent of the Krypt, where you can spend points to unlock alternate costumes, concept art, music etc. Okay, so it may sound like Injustice: Gods Among Us is pretty close to Mortal Kombat, which it is, but in a totally good way!
The game play is where Injustice: Gods Among Us proves that it can stand on its own. While there are many similarities to MK, they still feel very much like Injustice. The combat is mostly combo based, but there are subtle systems at work beneath the surface that will appeal to fighter fans. The characters all feel quite balanced and unique, each with appropriate strengths and weaknesses.
One system that feels a bit redundant game play-wise is Injustice's clash system. While being attacked you can initiate a clash that prompts each combatant to wager bars of their super-meter. If the attacker wins he deals a bit of damage, and if the defendant wins he gets a bit of a health bump. A clash rarely feels like it changes the outcome of a match, but I will admit that I get a kick from the one-liners and insults that the characters lay on each other before they collide, and the way the animation shakes the whole stage is also cool.
The only unfair/unbalanced component is the character powers. Each character activates their individual power with the press of a button (B on Xbox & circle on PlayStation) and some characters have less useful skills at their disposal than others. This will probably not make much of a difference for casual players, but hardcore fighter fans will want to consider it. Aside from this minor point, the game has a great feel to it overall.
Injustice has a lot of character. With an impressive roster of hero and villain fighters, and good audio and visual design to back it up, you really feel that this is a game about super heroes. The costumes are in most cases close to the classic look of the characters, while still feeling fresh. The music isn't too memorable, but it fits nicely. Each blow has a satisfying thud to it that carries an appropriate amount of weight. Animations are smooth, but faces and generic NPC's sometimes look a bit off. However, there is a lot of detail in the stages, and they look great.
Speaking of stages, they become a character of their own in many ways. As your fighters smack each other around, objects and even structures rumble and sway. Each stage has a lot of stuff going on in the background without distracting from the immediate action. There are also plenty of objects that can be interacted with (like smacking a foe with a dumpster, or car), and characters may even interact with objects differently depending on if they are of a light & fast class, or a heavy hitter. Each stage also has two different areas, and you can smack opponents through to the other area with the right attack and positioning, complete with an over-the-top transition animation that both deals plenty damage and is delightful to watch.
The game's online component builds on the strong foundation of the features we saw in the latest Mortal Kombat. There's a King of the hill-like mode where you jump in a room, and people stand in virtual line to take on the reigning champ, as well as all the modes and features you'd expect. Online play was surprisingly smooth, only occasionally plagued by lagging matches.
While Injustice: Gods Among Us bears many similarities to Mortal Kombat, it still feels entirely like its own beast. With a fun story mode that captures the essence of the game's characters, a whole bunch of content in the shape of S.T.A.R. labs and the many, many unlocks, and a fluent and engaging combat system to boot – Injustice: Gods Among Us puts the "Super" in "Superman" (*edit: we wholeheartedly apologize for that lame pun). This is a comic book based fighter that gives Marvel vs. Capcom a run for its money, whilst at the same time more than makes up for the mediocrity of MK vs DC universe. Recommended to any fighting fan out there that has ever wanted to settle the age-old argument: Who would win in a fight, Batman or Superman? Go find out!
|We liked Great roster, entertaining story mode, interactive environments, a lot of content & deep yet accessible combat system
|We disliked Nonsensical story, character powers feel somewhat unbalanced & S.T.A.R. Labs can be a grind

Binger Strasse 173
55216 Ingelheim am Rhein
For Media outside the U.S. and Canada
Ingelheim, Germany, September 21, 2011 – Boehringer Ingelheim today announced enrolment has commenced in its TOviTO Phase III clinical trial program. It will investigate tiotropium plus olodaterol in a once-daily fixed-dose combination for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
A progressive yet treatable disease that restricts patients' lives over time, COPD is estimated to affect over 210 million people worldwide and results in more deaths than breast cancer and diabetes combined.1,2
Tiotropium - marketed under the brand name Spiriva® in COPD – is a long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA) that provides 24-hour bronchodilation by blocking M3 muscarinic receptors.3 Tiotropium is the most prescribed COPD drug worldwide with more than 34 million patient years. Olodaterol is a novel once-daily long-acting ß2-agonist (LABA) that Boehringer Ingelheim has developed as an ideal partner to tiotropium in COPD.
Boehringer Ingelheim has decided to move the once-daily fixed-dose combination of tiotropium plus olodaterol into the TOviTO Phase III trial program on the back of promising olodaterol Phase III trial results, which will be published in the near future. The TOviTO program includes several trials that will provide important evidence to support olodaterol's potential to improve patients' lives beyond optimal bronchodilation. The first two trials to begin in the comprehensive TOviTO program will be TOnado 1 and its replicate study, TOnado 2. TOnado 1 & 2 will be the first two pivotal studies to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the fixed-dose combination for the treatment of COPD patients, and are planned to involve 5000 patients (2500 each) at more than 500 trial sites in approximately 40 countries.
The trials are multi-centered, multi-national, randomised, double-blind, parallel group studies that will compare the efficacy and safety of tiotropium plus olodaterol in fixed-dose combination with that of both mono-compounds (tiotropium and olodaterol). Both the fixed-dose combination and monotherapies will be administered once-daily, for 52 weeks, via Boehringer Ingelheim's Respimat® Soft Mist™ Inhaler (SMI). Respimat® SMI is a new generation inhaler that provides a unique slow moving and long-lasting soft mist4,5 that is easy to inhale6 and produces superior lung deposition.7,8 Respimat® SMI is preferred by patients compared to other currently available inhalers.9,10,11
Professor Roland Buhl, Head of the Pulmonary Department at the University of Mainz, Germany, and the Co-ordinating investigator for both trials, said: "We hypothesise the combination of tiotropium plus olodaterol, in a single Respimat® Inhaler device, will provide superior efficacy compared with the once-daily mono compounds. The addition of a LABA to tiotropium, a current COPD standard-of-care, could represent a significant advancement in COPD treatment. For the first time, patients would be able to receive their once-daily dose of tiotropium alongside a specifically selected LABA, all in the one, convenient inhaler."
The trials' primary endpoints will be bronchodilation – as measured by FEV1a AUC0-3hb response and trough FEV1 response at 24 weeks - and health status (quality of life) – as measured by the Saint George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ).
Professor Klaus Dugi, Corporate Senior Vice President Medicine, Boehringer Ingelheim, said: "Boehringer Ingelheim is committed to advancing respiratory research and treatment. The development of a true once-daily LABA as a partner to tiotropium underscores the company's commitment to meet the unmet medical needs of COPD patients and improve clinical outcomes. Our goal is to provide patients with a LABA/LAMA fixed-dose combination in a device that was specifically designed with patient benefit and convenience in mind."

About COPD
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a major cause of death and disability throughout the world. Symptoms include cough, sputum (mucus or phlegm) production, and breathlessness on exertion. Acute worsening of these symptoms, i.e. exacerbations (sometimes referred to as COPD lung attacks due to their severe impact on patients' health) often occurs and can restrict a patient's ability to perform normal daily activities.12 The latest World Health Organisation (WHO) figures estimate that more than 3 million people died from the disease in 2005. Dyspnoea (breathlessness), the main symptom of COPD, is characteristically persistent and progressive and has a serious impact on patients' quality of life.12 At its most severe form, it even limits a patient performing simple tasks such as washing and dressing.
About Olodaterol
Olodaterol is a long acting β2–agonist (LABA) in clinical development (Phase III) by Boehringer Ingelheim. It is being developed as an ideal partner to tiotropium. Phase III studies have confirmed olodaterol has a 24-hour duration of action and bronchodilator efficacy in patients with COPD when administered once-daily. Olodaterol as monotherapy showed promising results in Phase III that met the company's expectations and will be published in the near future.
About Tiotropium
Tiotropium (Spiriva®) is a long-acting inhaled anticholinergic medication and is the first inhaled treatment to provide significant and sustained improvements in lung function with once-daily dosing. Tiotropium positively impacts the clinical course of COPD, helping to change the way patients live with their disease13,14 by opening narrowed airways and helping to keep them open for 24 hours. Tiotropium works through targeting a dominant reversible mechanism of COPD – cholinergic bronchoconstriction (closing of the airways) – and has demonstrated significant and sustained bronchodilation15 (opening of the airways) and reduction in hyperinflation16,17 (air trapping). Boehringer Ingelheim has marketed tiotropium as Spiriva® since 2002 (9 years).
About Respimat® Soft Mist™ Inhaler
Developed by Boehringer Ingelheim, Respimat® Soft Mist™ Inhaler (SMI) is a propellant-free, new generation inhaler with a unique delivery mechanism. It produces a long-lasting, slow moving Soft Mist™4,5 that is easy to inhale, easy to co-ordinate (forced inhalation is not required), reduces deposition in the mouth and throat and leads to superior lung deposition.6,7,8 Therefore, Respimat® SMI is preferred by patients compared to other currently available inhalers.9,10,11
Boehringer Ingelheim: Leading respiratory forward
Treatment of COPD has been a major area of focus for Boehringer Ingelheim for decades and significant resources are dedicated to research in this field. More recently, the Company has also branched out into developing treatment options for other airway diseases, including asthma, lung cancer, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and other respiratory indications. Boehringer Ingelheim's respiratory portfolio covers a wide range of treatment options and includes Spiriva® (tiotropium), Berodual® (fenoterol/ipratropium bromide), Berotec® (fenoterol), Combivent® (ipratropium bromide/salbutamol) and Atrovent® (ipratropium bromide).

PHOENIX (AP) - Former Republican state lawmaker Jonathan Paton is congratulating Democrat Ann Kirkpatrick on her win in Arizona's 1st Congressional District.
The race was called in Kirkpatrick's favor last week, but Paton held out until Monday.
With more outstanding votes counted, Paton said in a statement that it's clear his campaign came up short. He offered his congratulations and wished Kirkpatrick the best.
The 1st Congressional District, the state's largest, runs from Flagstaff through eastern Arizona counties and then west into parts of Pinal County and includes the Navajo Nation, where Kirkpatrick had strong support.
The race had been considered a tossup and featured millions of dollars in ad spending.
Statement by Paton: "I appreciate everyone's patience as we waited for remaining votes to be counted in our race. It's now clear we have come up short. My sincere congratulations go out to Ann Kirkpatrick, and I wish her all the best in addressing the serious issues facing our country. We are blessed to live in a country where 'We the People' decide our representation."

Game two with Minnesota looked uncomfortably like game one for the Phils as the offense didn't produce and the bullpen faltered late. The 4-3 setback was the fifth straight loss for the Phillies.
The Phils took a 3-2 lead into the bottom of the eighth last night in game two of the set, but Bastardo allowed two doubles and a single to the first three men he faced in the inning and the Twins went on to score a pair of runs. It was the second straight game in which Bastardo had struggled in the eighth, although another poor outing from Mike Adams did a lot of the damage as the Phillies dropped game one.
The bullpen ERA for the Phillies is up to 4.56, which is 14th of the 15 NL teams and 28th of the 30 teams across both leagues. The good news is that the Phillie pen has thrown the fewest innings of any NL team. The bad news is that the .271 opponents have hit against them is worst in the league, the .347 on-base percentage they've allowed is worst in the league and the .441 slugging percentage they've allowed is worst in the league. The Mets are the NL team with the bullpen ERA that's worse than the Phillies for the season, but the Phillie pen has allowed hits at a nearly identical rate, walks at a much higher rate and seen the hits they've allowed go for more total bases on average. They won't have to do that too much longer before they have a worse bullpen ERA for the season as well.
The Phillies are 31-35 on the year after losing 4-3 to the Minnesota Twins last night. They have lost five in a row for the first time this year and play the finale of the three-game set with the Twins tonight.
Cloyd got the start for the Phillies and went five innings, allowing a run on six hits and three walks. Two of the hits went for extra-bases, both doubles. He struck out two.
Cloyd has allowed two earned runs or less in five of his six starts. He's walked eight in 11 2/3 innings over his last two starts, which is an unsustainable recipe for disaster. Lefties are hitting 303/390/424 against him for the year.
He started the bottom of the first with a 2-0 lead. He walked Joe Mauer with one out and Mauer moved up to third on two-out double by Josh Willingham. Justin Morneau followed that with a walk and the bases were loaded for Oswaldo Arcia. Arcia grounded to first to set the Twins down.
Clete Thomas singled to start the second and moved up to second on a two-out single by Jamey Carroll. It put two men on for Mauer and Mauer flew to center to leave them stranded.
Two scoreless innings for Cloyd to start the game, but the Twins leave the bases loaded in the first and two men on in the second.
Cloyd threw a 1-2-3 third.
Arcia singled to start the fourth and scored when Thomas followed with a double to the gap in right center, cutting the Phillie lead to 2-1. Eduardo Escobar was next and singled to right, moving Thomas to third. Cloyd struck Pedro Florimon out for the first out and got Carroll to ground into a double-play to end the inning.
Nice job by Cloyd to hold the damage to a single run. After scoring their first run in the game, the Twins can't get any more despite putting runners on the corners with nobody out.
After four innings, Cloyd had yielded just one run, but had walked two and allowed six hits, including two doubles. That's too many base-runners and he was lucky to hold the Twins to one.
He was up 3-1 when he walked Mauer to start the fifth. He got the next three hitters in order to set the Twins down.
The first out of the inning came on a ball hit hard to Howard by Ryan Doumit. Howard stepped on the bag at first and didn't throw to second. Looked like he had a play there.
Savery started the sixth and allowed back-to-back singles to Arcia and Thomas to start the frame, putting men on first and second with nobody out. Escobar bunted the runners up to second and third with the first out. Florimon was next and chopped a ball up the first base line. Savery fielded and tagged Florimon out for the second out, but Arcia scored to cut the lead to 3-2 and Thomas moved up to third. Carroll grounded to Galvis at second to leave Thomas stranded.
Savery was back to start the seventh. Mauer led off and singled to left. Stutes came in to pitch to the switch-hitter Doumit and got him on a fly ball to center for the first out. Willingham was next and popped to short for the second out. Bastardo took over to face the lefty Morneau and got him on a fly ball to center to leave Mauer at first.
Bastardo gets Morneau a day too late.
Savery faced six batters in the game. Three of them singled and he got three of them out. One of the outs came on a bunt. He's allowed a run on three hits and a walk over three innings in three appearances for the year.
Stutes faced two batters in the game and got both of them out, dropping his ERA on the year to 1.69 after nine appearances. He's walked just one in 10 2/3 innings and hasn't allowed a home run. Righties are hitting 130/167/130 against him and lefties 389/421/621. So he's been better against righties.
Bastardo was back to start the eighth. Arcia led off and doubled to center. Thomas was next and pounded a double high off the wall in right. Arcia scored to tie the game at 3-3. Escobar was next and bunted an 0-1 pitch on the first base side of the mound. The ball just died in the grass and Escobar was safe at first with a single. Thomas moved up to third. De Fratus came in to pitch to the switch-hitter Florimon with nobody out, men on the corners and the game tied. Florimon lined to Galvis for the first out with the runners holding. Lefty Chris Parmalee hit for the righty Carroll. De Fratus's 1-1 pitch to Parmalee was inside and in the dirt. Lerud couldn't handle it. Thomas scored (4-3), Escobar moved up to second and De Fratus was charged with a wild pitch. Parmalee lined a 3-2 pitch back to De Fratus. De Fratus caught it for the second out and threw to second where Escobar was doubled-off to end the inning.
Bastardo faced four batters in the game, getting one out and allowing three hits, including back-to-back doubles to start the eighth. The Escobar bunt single was a little fluky as the ball just died on the grass.
Bastardo has a 3.18 ERA for the year, which doesn't reflect how badly he's been pitching, and a 1.59 ratio, which does. He's allowed four runs on eight hits and three walks over 3 2/3 innings in his last five appearances. Walks didn't hurt him last night, but he's walked 14 in 22 2/3 innings for the season.
De Fratus fares pretty well after entering the game with nobody out and runners on the corners, despite the wild pitch. He records three outs without being charged with a hit or a run. 1.64 ERA and an 0.73 ratio for the year after 11 innings over 14 appearances. Opponents are hitting .158 against him with two walks and no home runs in 40 plate appearances.
As well as De Fratus did, I think bringing Papelbon in with nobody out and runners on the corners is the better move for the Phils. What with him being their best pitcher and the game being on the line and whatnot.
Overall the pen went three innings in the game, allowing three runs on six hits. They didn't allow a walk or strike anyone out. Bastardo and De Fratus have both pitched two days in a row. Savery threw 25 pitches in the game.
The Phillie lineup against righty Mike Pelfrey went (1) Michael Young (2) Revere (3) Rollins (4) Howard (5) Brown (6) Delmon Young (7) Mayberry (8) Galvis (9) Lerud. Delmon Young at DH. Lerud catches with Quintero on the bench. First start of the year for Lerud. Galvis moves up to eighth in the order with Lerud in the lineup. Mayberry starts against the righty with Nix on the bench.
Revere reached on an infield single with one out in the top of the first and moved up to second when Rollins singled to right. Howard was next and drew a walk, loading the bases for Brown. Brown flew to left for the second out with Revere tagging and scoring to put the Phils up 1-0 with men on first and second for Delmon Young. Young singled to right and Rollins scored. 2-0 with men on first and second for Mayberry. Mayberry flew to center for the third out.
The Phillies went in order in the second and again in the third. Delmon Young and Mayberry both struck out as they went in order in the fourth.
The lead was cut to 2-1 when they hit in the fifth. Galvis and Lerud went down for the first two outs before Michael Young doubled to right. Revere was next and blooped a singled into shallow left-center. Young scored from second to extend the lead to 3-1. Rollins flew to left to leave Revere at first.
They went in order in the sixth.
The lead was cut to 3-2 when they went in order in the seventh.
Revere bunted for a single off of righty Casey Fien with one out in the eighth and moved up to second when Rollins followed with a single to right. With one out and men on first and second, lefty Brian Duensing took over for Pelfrey and struck Howard out swinging for the second out. Brown popped to short to leave both runners stranded.
Third hit of the game for Revere, although they weren't all exactly magnificent. Infield single in the first, bloop RBI-single in the fifth and a bunt single in the eighth.
Philliesflow is your source for Casey Fien trivia. Domonic Brown was drafted in the 20th round of the 2006 draft. There are two players drafted in that round that have a higher career WAR as calculated by Baseball-Reference than Brown does: Casey Fien and Vinnie Pestano.
The Phillies were down 4-3 when they hit in the ninth. Lefty Glen Perkins set Delmon Young, Mayberry and Galvis down in order.
Michael Young was 1-for-4 with a double, which was the only extra-base hit for the Phillies. He's 10-for-his-last-24. Just 12 extra-base hits in 236 plate appearances for the year. His isolated power for the season is at .085, which is the lowest it has been in any season in which he got more than two plate appearances.
Revere 3-for-4 with an RBI. He has seven RBI for the season. Across both leagues there are three players with at least 200 plate appearances and less than ten RBI for the year. They are Revere, Placido Polanco and Juan Pierre. Insert your own joke here.
Rollins 2-for-4. 8-for-his-last-33 (.242) with eight singles. He's a weird guy to have hitting third against a righty given his 270/335/389 line against right-handed pitching for the season.
Howard 0-for-3 with a walk. He has one home run in his last 111 plate appearances.
Brown 0-for-3 with an RBI. He's 0-for-his-last-10.
Delmon Young 1-for-4 with an RBI. 1-for-his-last-12.
Mayberry 0-for-4 and struck out twice. 236/303/383 against right-handed pitching for his career.
Galvis 0-for-4. 0-for-his-last-15.
Lerud 0-for-3 and struck out twice. The winning run scored on a wild pitch by De Fratus, but Lerud didn't have much of a chance to handle the pitch.
Lee (7-2, 2.55) faces righty Kevin Correia (5-4, 4.11) tonight. Lee has made 13 starts this year and allowed more than three earned runs in two of them. He has a 1.84 ERA in his last seven starts and the Phils are 6-1 in those games. He's allowed two home runs in 59 2/3 innings over his last eight times out. Correia has struck out 36 in 76 2/3 innings for the season. He doesn't walk many guys, but opponents are hitting .298 against him for the year with righties sporting a 308/333/550 line.

Da Vinci's "Maestro" designation is reserved for brushes manufactured using male winter Siberian Kolinsky Red Sable fur. These are top-of-the-line, high quality brushes.
The extra sharp needle-like point and longer tapered hair length result in faster action at the tip and the tightest snap at the point. Expect superior spring and control, plus unsurpassed water-carrying performance.
All brushes have plated brass, seamless ferrules.
Series 11, Full Belly Round — Also known as a Reservoir Round or Reservoir Liner, these brushes are like the regular Kolinsky Rounds, except that they have a fuller belly for greater color capacity.
Series 35, Long Tapered Round — This longer round brush is designed for drawing clean, even lines. Its tapered shape also makes it an excellent choice for quick, expressive work in watercolors, such as illustration and animation drawings.
Series 5506, Retouch — A retouch brush is a pointed round kolinsky that has a shorter tip than a standard kolinsky sable round.
Note — Brush sizes are not standardized. The length and width of a brush of a given shape and size varies considerably by manufacturer. Since fine art brushes are handmade, expect some variation even among brushes from a given manufacturer.

Kolinsky Sable Brush Shortage

Room at Park Haven Nursing Home where a Sunday night fire caused by a meth lab in the room killed one person and injured six others (AP)
ASHTABULA, Ohio (AP) - A drug lab in the room of a nursing home resident caused a fire that killed one person and injured six others, a fire chief in northeast Ohio said.
Ashtabula fire Chief Ron Pristera said the man died Monday, following the Sunday night fire at Park Haven Nursing Home. He said the lab was making methamphetamine.
Pristera said the man was among three residents and two non-residents hospitalized. Two other people were treated at the scene.
Police Chief Robert Stell told The (Ashtabula) Star-Beacon that drug charges are pending against two of the men who were burned. He declined to release their names until they have been charged and arraigned in municipal court.
A lawyer for the nursing home declined to comment. Auditor's records show the home was built in 1950 and had 31 rooms. Pristera said 39 names were on its roster.
The fire began just after 8:30 p.m. Sunday, the Star-Beacon said. Firefighters were on the scene until about 1:45 a.m. Monday.
Methamphetamine is a highly addictive illegal stimulant often cooked in homes with flammable components. State officials say more than 300 meth labs were broken up last year.

PIERRE, S.D. (KELO-AM) – At the request of the South Dakota Department of Veterans Affairs, Gov. Dennis Daugaard has proclaimed Sunday, March 30, 2014, as "Welcome Home Vietnam Veterans Recognition Day," calling on all South Dakotans to gratefully acknowledge our Vietnam Veterans and honor their proud legacy.
"Forty-one years ago, the last American troops were withdrawn from Vietnam," said Gov. Daugaard. "If you have a Vietnam veteran in the family or happen to cross the path of someone who served in Vietnam, I hope you will take a moment to thank them for their sacrifices."
"Our soldiers served honorably and bravely in Vietnam," added Larry Zimmerman, Secretary of the South Dakota Department of Veterans Affairs. "Unfortunately, they arrived home to a country in political turmoil, and never received the recognition they deserve. By setting March 30 aside as a day to focus on our Vietnam veterans, we can show our unified gratitude for their service and the sacrifices that these veterans made on our behalf."

"We had these printed for my sons birth. They came out amazing and we got so many compliments on them! We were very impressed with the quality and timeliness of shipping!"
"Came out really great. Customer service was great and the design expert review was wonderful. They were able to move the print to other side so that it would not be on the body of photo. Would highly reccomended this card. Simple and elegant."
"This card came out beautiful. I used a color photo with solid blue on the back and it looks perfect. A little smaller than I would have liked but overall it looks nice."
"Very happy with how my sons birth announcement came out! The template made it so easy. I just added the info and picture."
"The colors of this card coordinated perfectly with the outfit my son was wearing in his newborn pictures. I had one picture that was my favorite, and 2 others I thought were adorable & couldn't choose between - so the 3 picture layout with one prominent picture & 2 smaller pictures was perfect. In retrospect, I would've gone with the light blue back of the card instead of the brown so I could've written my thank yous there. The brown is too dark to write on, even with black ink. But it does look lovely."

So how does one know whether he or she is getting installation from an organisation or certified expert? The best way to know this is to seek information from a potential service provider. Clients should also be ready to ask right inquiries. They should not only ask whether the company is qualified. Some of the questions that the clients should ask include
-Do you have a qualified staff?
-Will my system be installed by a qualified refrigeration mechanic or by somebody who is not qualified?
-Will the personnel be directed by a qualified technician and the work assessed after completion?
-Will the installation be guaranteed and what are the terms?
A company that utilizes certified refrigeration mechanic ought to be anxious to guarantee their work. If one deals with a company that is hesitant to support their work with a guarantee or one that discourages a customer from getting a legal assessment, this ought to give one a reason for second thoughts
Integral Electrical Engineering is a certified refrigeration installation company that has qualified expertise that will see the system correctly installed. Apart fom the qualified personnel it offers other services that will guarantee a client's satisfaction in installing a home or commercial air conditioning system.
