Samardzija May Get First Start
UPDATE: Looks like Lou made up his mind after the first game and it will be Sean Marshall getting the start on Sunday versus the Marlins.
Just a little scheduling note, that Lou has tabbed either Jeff Samardzija or Sean Marshall for Sunday's start against the Marlins due to today's doubleheader. That is if Marquis cannot go on short rest.
"I can't bring Harden back on short rest, but I can bring Marquis back possibly," Piniella said Wednesday. "By him pitching the day game, it gives him a little longer time. If not, we'll either pitch Samardzija or pitch [Sean] Marshall."
Other than possibly using Marquis on short rest, there was another reason Harden will pitch tonight's nightcap.
"I know he's told us his preference would be to pitch at night and in cooler weather," Piniella said
As always, blame Canada.
Re: Samardzija May Get First Start
Does it make a difference that Samardzija is now pitching?
Re: Samardzija May Get First Start
Maybe Lou pulled Marquis with an 8-2 lead so he can go on Sunday?
Re: Samardzija May Get First Start
if ninja does start he needs to be stretched out...all he's had is a string of 10-40 pitch outtings since he's come up.
dont think he'd be a prime candidate, though he does need to be "auditioned" there for next season.
Re: Samardzija May Get First Start
I'd be willing to bet it will be Marquis starting Sunday, too.
Re: Samardzija May Get First Start
i HATE these freaking braves, but apparently not as much as they hate soriano.
i really hope this doesn't get into a ridiculous situation the last two games. the braves are out of it and really don't care what they do in terms of suspensions, ejections, etc.
remember the insanity of that sunday night game with renteria hitting fontenot, lilly getting ejected for no real reason. all that after soriano hit three homers friday night and then got hit to start saturday.
lilly pitching tomorrow, could be a dangerous situation if bobby cox has a bug up his ass which i'm sure he will.
just chill out, no suspensions needed for this team right now.
Re: Samardzija May Get First Start
It'd be great if the Cubs had a clubhouse meeting now to reinforce exactly that.
Re: Samardzija May Get First Start
Normally I would agree with with you, but this crap has been going on for 2 seasons now and trying to hit Soriano in the head is the last straw for me. Somebody from the BP needs to nail Larry in the nightcap.
Re: Samardzija May Get First Start
Anybody see the pitch to Sori? How bad was it? I thought Renteria's play last year was one of the cheapest shots I have ever seen.
Nice to see Geo's bat back in action, and with some pop.
Your turn, Kosuke.
Re: Anybody see the pitch to Sori?
It was a hummer aimed directly for his head. He was lucky to get out of the way unscathed.
Re: Anybody see the pitch to Sori?
Any reason for the pitch other than the Cubs scored a lot of runs in game one?
Re: Anybody see the pitch to Sori?
soriano's habit of looking at his shots smiling like a 5 year old in awe of himself.
that said...soriano smiles like a 5 year old pretty much full-time.
reminds me of "classic pedro martinez"...the guy that was in a perma-good mood that took things and rolled with them.
the pitch at his head was probably supposed to be destined for his ribs, but soriano took it REALLY well. he just stepped back and...well, he smiled like a 5 year old.
soriano probably knew what it was about and didn't freak out about it "missing a little high"...very classy/cool stuff you (well, at I do) wanna see outta one of your star power hitters in a pennant chase.
Re: Anybody see the pitch to Sori?
...yeah they were showing it on the Atlanta broadcast. Chip started talking about a hope that things don't escalate, then the other dude justified the near-beaning by ripping into Soriano's HR trot. He really doesn't like Soriano. I hate HR trots too, but I still can't understand why everyone hates Soriano so much; he seems like a really nice dude.
Re: Samardzija May Get First Start
Yeah, but as we mentioned in the chat, Fonzie deserved it (not to the head, though) - he basically posed on a ball that turned out to be a single, then was making movements towards stealing 2nd after the game was way out of reach. Don't pull an Ozzie, Lou.
Re: Samardzija May Get First Start
How 'bout that Samardzija?
Wasn't that long ago that he was having all kinds of problems at the AA level.
Very early yet, but he has been a great boost.
Re: Samardzija May Get First Start
numbers and stats tend to have a hard time showing a physical progression of talent except in hindsight. he's had a crazy break since he "got his shit together".
i'm a little concerned about how much he uses his fastballs, but when he's got one that's mid90s with that kind of movement...wow. that's one hell of a starting point to build a pitching career around.
Re: Samardzija May Get First Start
Stats lie sometimes. Simple as that. He was damn near MLB-ready when we first saw him in spring training '07. His 2-seamer looked every bit as wicked as Zambrano's. You just like to see him learn to control that pitch over time.
Re: Samardzija May Get First Start
It's my understanding that he struggled to get hitters out in the lower levels because they had him working on his secondary pitches and so he wasn't focusing on using his best pitch (the power sinker) to get people out. The closer he got to the big leagues, the more they allowed him to pitch the way he normally would.
Re: Samardzija May Get First Start
I'd much rather see a reliever somehow fall off the mound and throw a beaner at Cox's head; he may be a great manager, but he's also a world - class d-ckhead.
Re: Samardzija May Get First Start
I think it is ok to say "dickhead" at the renewed TCR.
Besides, I am sure you are merely referring to the head of the Reds pitching coach, Dick Pole.
Re: Samardzija May Get First Start
you can't say dick pole on the internet, dude.
Re: Samardzija May Get First Start
Are you saying he's an [censored]hole?
I wouldn't mind seeing someone pull a Pedro to his Popeye at this point. It's getting re[censored]ulous.
(At the same time, I'd much rather he run more and showboat less, he almost [censored]ed up a double a couple weeks ago against the brewers because he thought it was out. HE didn't start running until he saw the donut at first base pointing the outfield throw to second.
Re: Samardzija May Get First Start
I think this team has no balls. Chipper better get one in the back sometime before we leave atlanta.
Re: Samardzija May Get First Start
Braves have nothing to lose by fucking with the Cubs. Cubs have everything to lose by fucking with the Braves. There is NOTHING to be gained by going head hunting for Chipper (or anyone else for that matter). All that does is risk injury to a Cub if they retaliate, and can put a key pitcher on the bench for a week, with the Brewers (yes, that "terrible team" of yours that is about to win their 8th in a row) right behind the Cubs.
That's the type of shit that was the beginning of the Cubs collapse in 2004 when the Astros got in Barrett's head.
Re: Samardzija May Get First Start
As Ozzie would say, "ey, you gotta play de games, and I don' know, but we steel gotta play da Royals plenty more times, so we'll see, Okayee?"
Like Desi Arnez as Ricky Riccardo, but without all that pesky baggage of intelligence.

Thanks for the update on Underwood.
I know, man. What a season. 3rd best record in all of baseball, good enough to have won any division other than the one there in.
With a win tomorrow, the Cubs will match their 2008 record. Bad omen, I know. If they do win, the most recent year in which the Cubs will have won more games would be 1945 (98-56), the last time they went to the World Series.
I'll take that omen instead...
"oh yeah, and get the fuck off my lawn. :D"
Ok, now that was funny. :)
KB 0-5 with 8 LOB. Really? He is torturing me with 99 RBI. He is also a very different hitter at home vs. road. I suspect most young hitters are.
Greinke still in for the 8th. 3 up, 3 down. After 8. 108 pitches, ERA still at 1.66 according to mlb boxscore and he's in line for a 19th win.
Greinke 95 pitches through 7. Gives up one run (solo HR to Hedges). ERA at 1.66. Doubt that they will let him give up 5 runs in the 8th.
Dodgers ahead 2-1.
96 wins with one game to go. Who woulda thunk it.
Cubs 96 wins have clinched a better record than any AL team and the NL West/East division winners too.
cubs win, pirates lose...
the curse is now yours.
cog a HR away from the cycle after a single in the 6th.
Hendricks: 15 up, 15 down.
he strongly separates his post-playing career from his playing career, though he loves to visit the barrier of player and fan. many ex-players don't put up this barrier.
he's not interested in going back to the clubhouse or pretty much anything field/game related, but he'll grab a ticket and observe with the fans and visit ex players on "neutral" ground. he's written 3 pieces for the new yorker and other pieces elsewhere. i remember one photo/bio piece he did, but don't remember where i read it (years ago).
I find your comments rather obtuse. He recognized he didn't want to pursue baseball anymore and went back to school to learn how to become a better writer - opening up a new chapter in his life.
I don't know where you find a "sad disconnection" because he is writing about his experiences? He pursued a ball career for a long time so no doubt there is some meloncholy in his tone, but I just don't know what the fuck you are talking about.
he has an almost sad disconnection from the game based on his writings. even though he's "been there" (no matter how much of a minor role) he doesn't seem to feel like he belongs or deserves to belong in the boy's club.
he seems to go to great lengths to enjoy the game from an arm's length while occasionally getting close enough for a high-5 from those who affirm him that he belongs.
I read that guy's article about why he quit baseball and it was really well done too. In terms of Rizzo, I have seen multiple references to how this is Rizzo's team just as much as Madden's and it makes that pick up that much better that we have someone that is not only a great player but a leader and all around great guy (been reading about all the charity work he does too). There is really nothing not to like about Rizzo.
Nice article on Rizzo

I was a Town Girl for the first two years of my college life. I appreciated the closes to my home. I loved the library. I loved my classes. It was very easy to meet people. I liked the professors....
I attended Seattle U. in the 70's. It was during the Vietnam War, it was right on the edge of the Civil Right movement. I suppose the very worse thing about attending Seattle U was that everything...

My Nonprofit Reviews
Jennifer P.
Review for Bay Area Girls Rock Camp, Oakland, CA, USA
My daughter has attended Bay Area Girls Rock Camp for the last three summers (from ages 10-12). She always loves it! She had been the lead singer twice and a guitar player once.
Each year, she loves her fellow band-mates and her coaches. She learns to listen to her own voice, to trust her instincts and to go for broke. Each summer she emerges from the program more confident and comfortable in her own skin. Aside form the musical lessons and friendships, the encouragement to think critically and to voice her own opinions have been most valuable.
The program is well-run and super fun! I reccommend it highly to all girls.

Online Learning in Autonomic Multi-Hop Wireless Networks for Transmitting Mission-Critical Applications
Download Now
Date Added: Mar 2009
Format: PDF
In this paper, the authors study how to optimize the transmission decisions of nodes aimed at supporting mission-critical applications, such as surveillance, security monitoring, and military operations, etc. They focus on a network scenario where multiple source nodes transmit simultaneously mission-critical data through relay nodes to one or multiple destinations in multi-hop Mission-Critical Networks (MCN). Due to the stringent delay constraints of mission-critical applications, propagating global network information back and forth to a central decision maker is not tolerable in the MCN. Hence, the MCN needs to be built by nodes that can make decisions autonomously, based on their local information.

Imperfect Trophy Lists
I am working on an article I want to send off to multiple places to see if they will pick it up for a short segment. What a convoluted fantasy that is, right? Anyway, I wanted to share the work in progress with the community to see their take on the subject. A tl;dr version is at the bottom.
Once was a time when video games only had one difficulty setting, impossible. It made sense, in a much simpler time, that with console limitations to make a game last longer by making it difficult. James Rolfe himself would have to agree that some of those classics would be worthless without their difficulty. Eventually whiny punks got their way and the profit motive drove game developers to dumb down their games; at least they left us with a "Choose Difficulty" option. The real dilemma appears when I beat a game on the hardest difficulty setting only to be slapped in the face by a hidden difficulty level.
I, for one, would really like to meet the first jerk that brought up the idea to make the extra difficulty setting that has to be unlocked. I'm not saying the meeting would not be civil, but I make no promises that my vocabulary would not shorten to a few four letter words. In all fairness though, at the time it must have seen like a way to spice up games and increase the game's lifespan, but only on a truly artificial basis.
I search the trophy list for every game that I play first, to make sure I can get as much on my own before having to read someone's guide on getting all of the goodies the game has to offer. There are always trophies dedicated to difficulty, as there should be. Unfortunately, however, there are also many trophies hidden as to not spoil the story line. The reason this is unfavorable is due to the false sense of hope it gives an unsuspecting gamer; browse the list all you wish, it will not reveal the "IMPOSSIBLE" or "INSANITY" difficulty that you must first unlock to play. It may say "Beat the game on the hardest difficulty," like Dead Space; still failing to disclose what exactly that difficulty level is. Thus, I think I am justified in being very disappointed when after playing a game for twelve to twenty grueling hours I am not rewarded with a platinum trophy. I will not go into the multiple play through part of my rant though, that could invade your ears for another couple pages.
If anyone has ever played Uncharted: Drake's Fortune on Hard they can attest to the fact that it was quite challenging. Of course, this is assuming that one does not take into account the exploits, like changing over the shoulder orientation, that make games easier regardless of difficulty. The same could easily be said for many other games. How is it, then, that game developers can sleep at night knowing they first lied to me and followed that up by punching me in the throat? I wouldn't have minded even more of a challenge when making my way through an interesting story line, but having to replay a game that is completely scripted only with baddies that kill me easier is just plain insulting.
Plenty of great games do just fine with longevity without making gamers play the same story twice on different difficulty settings. Take for instance Infamous. Trophies for Good and Evil story line entice gamers to play through twice with only the standard Easy/Medium/Hard options. Dead Space, on the other hand, only makes gamers play through a second time to get the "Insanity" trophy and actually use other guns besides the Plasma Cutter. No change to story line. In fact, the true thrill of the game, it's horror vibe, is lost due to understanding what is going on. Spoiler alert for anyone that is two years behind in the gaming scene, it really just upsets me as I play through a second time knowing that Kendra Daniels is a betraying five-letter-word-for-dog. Outside of getting to actually use the weapons that the game offers, I feel like I am being punished playing through a second time. Surely I cannot be the only one!
I mentioned briefly before that I would not mind playing these games if they would just remedy in one of two ways: either make all difficulties available up front, or stick with the standard three and make "Hard" as excruciatingly difficult as you would "Impossible," or whatever adjective the developer can find in a thesaurus. I know that I would not give a student a test then say, "Okay you got a 100%, and since this is the third hardest version of the test that equates to about 75% of all possible points for this test. If you would like the full 100% please take the 'WTFBBQ' version tomorrow. By the way, 90% of the questions are identical, the other 10% are not even covered in this book." It just seems ridiculous that in order to flaunt my e-peen I have to beat a game, albeit a very good game, twice in one week.
tl;dr Why do game devs think that un-lockable difficulty levels are a good idea? It bums me out seeing 20-30 hours of work equate to 80-90% completion on my trophy list.
EDIT ----- Legibility.
EDIT ----- Changed "rage" to "bums me out" since apparently the word "rage" attracts a s***storm. I know that you are not reading the long version, just the lt;dr.

PS, if "tab" worked on the form for text input it wouldn't have been a wall of text in the first place. I was happy to go back and type five spaces for you though.
Re: Imperfect Trophy Lists
Wiggens - you really need to get out more. Get off the couch and get a breath of fresh air. Nobody cares how many trophies you have and nobody will. Go tell a real girl how many trophies you have and see her reaction.
Not saying gaming is not fun but it is not a replacement for real life.
Re: Imperfect Trophy Lists
I would say beating every boss and finding every collectible on "Hard" would be 100% completion, but then "BAM" I have to play another difficulty or be penalized.
Also, shame on you for assuming that I need to "get off the couch," etc.

Re: Imperfect Trophy Lists
Wiggy - enjoy the ride, don't worry about the results. Can't see why you can't be happy with all the fun you have getting to the finish if you don't have 100%. What difference does it really make? After you move on to the next game you won't care (or shouldn't). Enjoy. Don't intend to be mean. Just think you may be missing the big picture.

Ah, in that case, I agree 100%. The two games I mentioned, Dead Space and Uncharted: DF, are two of the best I ever played. I was really happy to get through them and on what I thought was the hardest difficulty to boot. I really just mean this write up as a "screw you" to the devs that demean their own games by adding in extra difficulty levels that have ot be unlocked.
Sorry I got defensive. Silly world wide web, I just assume every forum post is an attack on me, since 99.9999% of them are written by some 12 year old that is mad at the world. =P
Re: Imperfect Trophy Lists
I've never understood the difficulty setting either. They're totally unnecessary IMO. I always select the most difficult setting right off the bat myself. Having to play "normal' to unlock "difficult" has always seemed like a giant waste of time to me. What can you do? I guess they don't want to make the games too hard for the kiddos.

AUSTRALIA: Energy drink X FUEL takes off
Pepsi has launched X Fuel into Australia's fast-growing energy drink market, a lemon-flavoured beverage containing taurine, guarana, caffeine, B vitamins and two herbal stimulants - Gingko and Maté.The drink is a challenge to market leader, Frucor Beverage's V, which has garnered 60% of sales in 16 months, to Coca-Cola's Lift Plus which was released six weeks ago and to Austria's Red Bull.Its branding results from a joint venture between Pepsi and Planet X, a youth marketing company which targets 18-24-year-old males through an eponymous commercial television program, 'x' magazine, Planet X Online, and the Xtreme Games which feature street sports including roller blading and dirt bikes.Between $A5m and $A6m is being spent on promotion the brand which enters a market currently worth about $A80m a year and which Pepsi-Cola Bottler Australia's marketing director, Ian Tetro, estimates will be worth about $A200m a year within 12 months."It's a drink that's about wellness and energy," Tetro said. "Its point of difference being its herbal content."It was also a day/night drink compared with competitors' daytime or club/dance scene products. X Fuel will sell in the $A2-$A3 range compared with $A1.50-$A2 for 'normal' soft drinks.Coke's Lift Plus, described as "a zesty citrus drink with a herbal tang", also containing B vitamins, guarana and Ginseng, was launched in New Zealand in February 1999 and Coca-Cola is claiming it is now second in the sales stakes.

"Grain Tower - II" acrylic print by Scott Kirby. Ships within 3 - 4 business days and arrives ready-to-hang with all mounting hardware included. Choose from multiple sizes and two different mounting options (metal posts / hanging wire).
Mounting Option #1
Mounting Option #2
Bring your artwork to life with the stylish lines and added depth of an acrylic print. Your image gets printed directly onto the back of a 1/4" thick sheet of clear acrylic.
The image is the art - it doesn't get any cleaner than that!
All acrylic prints ship within 3 - 4 business days and arrive "ready to hang" with four aluminum mounting posts (Option #1) or hanging wire (Option #2).
The high gloss of the acrylic sheet complements the rich colors of any image to produce stunning results.
There are two different ways to mount your acrylic print.
Option #1 (Mounting Posts) - Attach your print to your wall with four aluminum mounting posts. The cylindrical cap of each mounting post can be removed, allowing you to thread a small screw along the center axis of the of post and into the wall. When you're finished, simply reattached each cap, and you're done. The mounting posts act as stand-offs and keep your print separated from the wall by 1". All of the required mounting hardware (i.e. posts, screws, and wall anchors) is included with your print. Click here for mounting details.
Option #2 (Hanging Wire) - With this option, your acrylic print is attached to a 1/4" thick black board which has a wooden frame and hanging wire attached to the back. There are no metal mounting posts at the corners. Simply put a nail in your wall, hang your print from the hanging wire, and you're done. Due to the thickness of the black board and mounting frame, your print is separated from the wall by 1.50" Click here for mounting details.
One of the larger paintings I have done, this elevator came to life as I painted the many layers of cool and warm colors on its siding, building them slowly. It's not a real place, but could be in Montana, or North Dakota. It was painted in France in 2006.
�Visions of the Great Plains� consists of drawings and watercolor paintings inspired by the American Great Plains, by Scott Kirby. Referred to as an �accidental artist� by Sandpoint Magazine, Kirby began painting in 2005, after 9 months of drawing with dual-tip brush pens. Although the attempts to capture these mostly imagined visions are quite intentional, the origins of Kirby's transition from music to art was, in a way, �accidental,� and unexpected. While drawing with his daughter Sara one afternoon, Kirby was suddenly compelled to continue into the night and following days, being bombarded by mental images which demanded expression. Weeks turned into months, and drawing turned into painting, all scenes rooted in a long relationship...

If anyone can resize the movie poster that includes Nagisa, that would be great. I apologize if this page is a bit premature, but I think it would have happened sooner or later and Nagisa gives us plenty of tropes to play with.

It's time to do what we should have done from the beginning
I've said from the beginning that I think the way this team will become successful is to have our big 3 play on 3 different lines. I'll say it again today.
If we want to become a legitimate, holy crap how do you stop them, team, then Brad Richards, Marian Gaborik, and Rick Nash need to all play on different lines.
Then, coming off of a PK or going into a PP you load up. Or if the team is struggling you throw them together for a shift or 2...or if the opposition ices the puck with their 4th line, you load up.
But by and large, on the "average" shift I think we need to have 1 superstar out there at all times (sans the 4th line of course...but Torts is really more of a 3 line coach anyway)
Hagelin - Stepan - Nash -->Needs explanation?
Kreider - Richards - Callahan -->Richards and Callahan have played well together when they were there last year...Callahan & Kreider bring speed to a center that sorely needs it.
Pyatt - Miller - Gaborik --> Gaborik is at his best when 2 guys around him can go do the grunt work, he can get lost, and then find himself open for goals. Miller has excellent vision. Put them together.
Boyle/Asham/Halpern/Power...pick the 3 that are going and play them. One has an off day, put in the benched one...make them play their ***** off to keep their spot.

Villanova rallies late to beat No. 5 Louisville
Updated: January 22, 2013, 11:51 PM ETAssociated Press
PHILADELPHIA -- Make it two straight losses and a sudden dose of concern for No. 5 Louisville.
Even the best teams lose to Syracuse.
But losing to an unranked and scuffling Villanova team put the Cardinals on notice this season could only get bumpier.
Achraf Yacoubou hit the tiebreaking 3-pointer late in the second half to help Villanova upset No. 5 Louisville 73-64 on Tuesday night.
The Wildcats (12-7, 3-3 Big East) led by as many as 10 points in the first half and rallied ...

| View Exclusive AAUP Compensation Survey Data |
Survey finds far fewer state systems experienced midyear cuts this year than last. But serious finance and capacity issues remain.
Howard University has ended its relationship with a consulting firm through which Robert Tarola served as chief financial officer, The Washington Post reported. The university said that Tarola left by "mutual agreement." Many deans and other faculty members have criticized Tarola, questioning his plans to put the university on better financial ground. Last month Sidney Ribeau announced he was leaving the Howard presidency.
The University of Michigan on Thursday formally announced the launch of a $4 billion fund-raising campaign -- the largest ever for a public university. Michigan has already raised $1.7 billion. The top priority for the campaign (at $1 billion) is student aid.
The University of California System raised $400,000 in relatively small gifts (averaging about $75) through a crowd-funding campaign for scholarships, and officials said that the effort was successful not only in bringing in money but raising awareness about the need for scholarships, The Los Angles Times reported. For the campaign, individuals pledged to do certain things in return for donations. One student at UC Merced wore a horse head mask for a week after donors agreed to donate. Michael Drake, chancellor at Irvine, will lead donors on a bike ride.
Anderson University, a private Christian institution in Indiana, has announced that it will eliminate its French, philosophy and theater majors as part of a plan to deal with financial shortfalls, The Herald Bulletin reported. A total of 16 faculty and staff positions will be eliminated as a result of those and other changes.
The University of Oregon has discovered that some employees working on federal grants padded their pay by putting in for hours they didn't work, The Oregonian reported. The university has already repaid the government $330,000 as a result, and officials said that there are other employee pay records that are still being investigated.
Johnson C. Smith University announced 21 non-faculty layoffs Thursday (as well as the freezing of 30 unfilled positions) in response to a significant enrollment decline this fall, The Charlotte Observer reported. A year ago, fall enrollment at the university set a record at 1,801, but this fall it ended up at 1,387. A key factor in the decline, officials said, was tighter rules on loan eligibility that resulted in some students or families being denied loans that they received in the past -- an issue that has been a source of frustration at many historically black colleges this year.
Strayer Education announced Thursday that it would close about 20 physical campuses, mostly in the Midwest, to cut costs in response to a 17 percent year-over-year enrollment drop that has sharply reduced its revenues. Strayer is the latest for-profit higher education provider (and among the last) to curtail its on-ground presence in the wake of the double whammy of a tough economy and increased regulatory oversight. The campus closures will affect about 5 percent of the company's roughly 50,000 students, Strayer said; those students will be encouraged to shift to the university's online programs, where most of them already study. (An email sent to students at the affected campuses said those who enrolled in spring courses would receive a $500 voucher toward the purchase of a new computer or mobile device.)
Strayer also said that it would cut its tuition price by about 20 percent effective in January.
The Berklee College of Music will next year launch its first two bachelor's degrees online, where 120 credits cost less than one year on campus.
North Carolina State University has sold a forest it owns for $150 million, The News & Observer reported. Conservationists have opposed the sale of the 79,000-acre forest. The university said that only a limited portion of the forest will be developed, and that students and faculty members will continue to be able to do research there. Officials said that the funds from the sale would go to an endowment that would support the university's College of Natural Resources.

iHerb Customer Reviews
Helps with sleep, migraines, hormone imbalance
2 people found the following review helpful
Posted by Reviewer2814986 on Sep 24, 2009
This has been wonderful for helping me fall asleep at night. I usually take with 1 mg of Melatonin due to insomnia/perimenopausal Sx. It has worked so much better than the Melatonin alone. I feel very sleepy within an hour. I also have not had as many migraines if any since starting this. If you suffer from hormonal imbalance, migraines and/or trouble sleeping this may be very helpful. Just use caution because this should not be taken with SSRI's which are often prescribed to women for PMS, etc. (can cause Serotonin Syndrome).

Works well.

This works well for my husband. He's taking two capsules for the night and he sleeps like a baby! Only I found on the internet that it is best to take a break of 5-HTP so now and then to make sure it keeps working well.

The problem is a culture that doesn't care about history in general. I'm a high school teacher, and though I am a professional artist, I am teaching English too (I have an MA in history and literature in addition to my BFA in photography). My students did not know what Communism was when I mentioned it in regard to a piece of literature we were discussing! The Soviet Union fell before any of them were born, but still....Communism is not ancient history; it is still pretty recent, and a few countries still call themselves Communist (Though I'd argue that China is now Capitalist).
If teens today do not know what the USSR was or what Communism was...recent history....then how can you expect young photographers to know about Stieglitz or Weston, who were early pioneers in fine art photography.
Another thing is that the world has simply changed to radically for Weston and Steiglitz and their concerns to have any relevance to young artists. I see my English students taking photos all day long with their phones; its instant imagery, immediate and relevant in a world with no attention span. Yesterday, a Mexican kid in one of my classes called a black kid a N----r and made a racist joke about him. The black guy ignored him at first, but the other guy just kept saying stuff. Finally, the black kid says to the Mexican one "Hey I may be a N----r, but at least I'm not a dumbass with two kids when I'm in high school!" Whoa! Two kids? Yep, the guy that started the fight already had TWO kids. He's a junior in high school. Finally, it became a fistfight that I had to break up. EVERY kid in that class crowded around us snapping away with their phones, and they probably had their photos of the fight on Facebook before the guys reached the principal's office! That's the world these kids live in.

Special Price: $104.99As low as: $100.00
James Halliday 2016 Wine Companion: 97 pts for 2013 Bekkers Syrah.
From the Hickinbotham and Gateway Vineyards; 85% destemmed, 15% whole bunches; 5-day cold soak; wild ferment; basket pressed to French puncheons (40% new). A first class example of McLaren Vale shiraz, with remarkable articulation of black fruits, licorice and bitter chocolate supported and lengthened by positive fine-grained fruit and oak tannins. 97 points James Halliday
Regular Price: $23.50
Special Price: $21.99As low as: $21.00
This wine is a delightful purple red colour. The nose is fabulous, dark plums, blackberries, blueberries, with a slight dusting of icing sugar, exotic spices, and a savoury earthiness all mingled together. The palate is not a let down it's absolutely delicious, that plummy blackberry fruit, mingled with dark raspberries, pure fruited, long and lively. It has a real creaminess to the palate, great length, and really really fine tannins on the finish. The oak is well in the background, leaving all that wonderful organic fruit to do the work.
Given all the above, the wine is actually wonderfully medium bodied, as this style should be. This wine tastes like it should be $30 or more a bottle, it's that good. It is easily the best all of this line yet, and should become your house wine. Gavin Trott
Regular Price: $23.00
Special Price: $21.99As low as: $20.00
Distinct Aussie bushwalk scents of earth, eucalyptus, wet leaves, sweet paperbark bark. There's dark berries and plum going on, but it's that savoury lift that defines the wine. Medium weight, glossy in texture, crisp acidity lending a freshness as the sweet slick of red-black fruit glides across the palate. There's leafy notes through the wine, light sandy tannins, and it finishes with a little saline character. All up, it's a bright, flavoursome wine, with fine structure; an easy wine to come at and drink or cellar. Bewdy. "93 points Winefront.com.au

Just about the most sensational Grenache I have had this year, or many past! beautiful fine filligreed tannins resting in the wine, medium bodied only, but long, very very fine, and wonderfully perfumed and intense. Its stunning! - Gavin Trott

Special Price: $24.50As low as: $22.00
Rating 96 points James Halliday's wine tasting note
Handpicked, pressed straight to barrel, wild yeast fermented in French oak (25% new), partial mlf, not fined or filtered. Gleaming straw green; follows in the footsteps of the two prior vintages, lifting sauvignon blanc way out of the ruck, yielding nothing to the Adelaide Hills or Margaret River, demanding you drink it without moderation; it is at once luscious, yet fine, filling the senses with its array of perfectly ripened and formed fruit, its sauvignon blanc DNA largely irrelevant. Shades of Didier Dageneau. 96 points James Halliday
Regular Price: $27.00
Special Price: $24.99As low as: $23.99
It's not just a wine of class it's a wine of compelling drinking. Perfume is a little shy but pretty with frangipani floral notes, wet slate, ginger and lemongrass spice. The palate is zingy and tingly with crispy, fine acid and lacy with tangy, limey fruit flavours. In a high drinkability zone right now, the finish is mouthwatering and impressively long.
It's a wine that dances across the palate, fresh, vibrant, juicy yet never feels broad or freewheeling. So very fine to drink.
Brilliant release." 95+ points Mike Bennie Winefront.com.au
Regular Price: $24.00
Special Price: $22.50As low as: $21.00
Aromatically lifted floral notes of Jasmine flower are followed by fresh lime and lemon blossom intensity. On the palate the citrus characters of lemon and lime create a core of intense flavour supported by an enduring mineral line. Further notes of freshly cut green apple indicate a pure expression of Riesling, and one that showcases the flavours typical to Eden Valley.Learn More
Regular Price: $24.00
Special Price: $23.50As low as: $23.00
Deep crimson in colour this wine bursts out of the glass with berry compote, accentuated by lifted violets and dried herbs. The palate is lively, with mid-weight intensity carrying notes of fresh strawberries and caramel brittle. Intriguing undertones of spice and herb add complexity to a wine that is ready to drink now, and can be enjoyed over the next five yearsLearn More
Regular Price: $35.00
Special Price: $33.50As low as: $32.50
from Me - This is stunning, its a highly aromatic, pretty, yet very textural wine. An intensely floral bouquet with citrus, orange blossom, honey and hazelnut, leads to a beautifully intense, zesty palate of yellow and white fruits, citrus, unripe peaches and a tangy spicy edge. The nose alone is worth the entry fee, but the palate does not disappoint. ......
from some other bloke - "54 dozen made with no subtractions and no additions, aside a touch of sulphur
It's a wilder, more textural style of Chardonnay and none the worse for that. Apples dusted with pepper, pickled ginger, white peach and maybe a whiff of honey. Light to medium bodied, kind of tangy and edgy, light powdery texture runs the length of the palate, and then ruby red grapefruit and spice punctuates the finish. Don't serve it cold, and keep an open mind. Fascinating wine: the longer I spent with it, the more I liked it." Gary Walsh 93 points Winefront.com.au
