Panasonic DMP-BDT210
3D pics, iPhone app, Skype video calling
No analogue audio outputs, sole HDMI, no BBC iPlayer
After the online content hubs of last year, is the next big thing in Blu-ray players iPhone control? It seems a bit harsh on the squillions of Android phone owners, but Panasonic has fitted its latest high-end 3D Blu-ray deck with an iPhone app as well as Skype video calling and a wave-controlled disc ejection system.
The latter isn't some kind of hydro electric powered system but something rather more twee; you wave your hand across the top of the machine and the disc tray opens. Unfortunately the sensor is in the middle of the top of the machine (a mottled black plastic design that's different to the brand's lower-end Blu-ray players, 3D or otherwise) so unless you put the BDT210 on display for all to see, this feature is largely worthless. In an AV rack the feature is best deactivated, though it does work a treat, taking about half a second from sensing your hand wave across the top to the actual tray opening. Happily, discs load in 14 seconds.
Designed to accompany Panasonic's VT30, GT30, ST30 or DT30 3DTVs, the BDT210 is second in Panasonic's 3D Blu-ray line-up only to the higher-end BDT310. That particular deck adds a couple of HDMI outputs for lossless audio and 3D viewing.
Elsewhere the specifications and performance are identical to the BDT110; newly refreshed onscreen menus, the Viera Cast suite of online services (which includes Acetrax movies and Skype video calling - see below), DLNA networking (DivX (AVI), WMV, AVC HD video, JPEG photos and MP3 music), SD Card slot (AVC HD playback and BD-Live storage), USB slots (for attaching a Skype camera or playing MP3, DivX (AVI), DivX HD (MKV), JPEG 2D or MPO 3D photos). The moderately successful 2D-to-3D conversion is also on board.
What the BDT210 adds over the BDT110 is Wi-Fi built-in, that touch-free sensor tray, and iPhone app control. A free download from the Apple store, the Panasonic Remote 2011 app includes a page for gesture control of the new "swipe" GUI design for 2011, a mock-up of the hardware remote, and dedicated screens for Blu-ray playback. There's even a "shuttle" screen for scanning through discs using a simple drag and hold rotation movement. We were even able to customise the app so a single shake of the iPhone performed any number of actions from standby or open tray to 3D mode or a launch of Viera Cast. The app includes a shortcut to Skype, but also one to NetFlix; this is obviously a US-centric application, but it otherwise works flawlessly on these shores.
Perhaps it is a good idea to use an iPhone or iPod touch if you have one since the supplied remote control is a tad too small, and not a patch on the brand's excellent TV remotes.
In among the smaller buttons is one labelled with the distinctive blue logo of Skype. Having made the jump from PC to phones, dear old Skype now appears on your TV … at last!? Ever wished you could make phone calls from your sofa, complete with video? Nor us, though this futuristic cliché has come to pass already - and it's actually quite fun.
We made calls to several friends around the world, with brilliant voice results - and pretty good pictures, too. The video is presented in the middle of the TV screen, though there is a fullscreen option. The call quality depends on your sound system, of course (5.1 phone calls, anyone?), but you will have to purchase the camera to even attempt Skype calls. The TY-CC10W Communication Camera is steep at £120+, but is at least very well made; a rugged design clips on to the top of a TV and trails a USB cable to the BD210. The camera and four-way microphone both prove to be excellent. Usefully, there's also an Auto Answering Video Message function that takes messages while the TV is switched-off, with a "video mail" function advertised as "coming soon".
The quality of 2D and 3D video is excellent, and identical to that found on the BDT110 (see separate review for more details). 2D-3D conversion also stars on the BDT210, a feature we were often impressed by. We're still not convinced it's ever going to be anything other than a novelty to help convince shoppers to buy 3DTVs and glasses, but it does add a little extra to an existing Blu-ray collection. In our test disc Casino Royale panoramic views and even slow-moving sequences with lots of background failed to impress, but a close-up view of a crowd of people looked awesome. Sadly, those moments are few and far between and we found our eyes quickly tiring before switching back to 2D.
With integrated Wi-Fi for added convenience and a brilliant iPhone/iPod touch app, Panasonic goes way beyond its excellent 2D and 3D pictures. Stuffed with extras such as Skype video calling (though latter only if you buy a £100+ camera), Panasonic has created a great value deck that even manages to convert 2D to 3D in an almost convincing manner.

BY PAUL SPERRYInvestor's Business Daily
President Obama continues to blame the soft economy and record red ink on Republican policies, including "tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans."
But three years ago he seemed convinced the economy had made a clean break from those old policies, and would soon roar back on the strength of his own policies. The proof is in his economic projections.
In his 2010 budget, Obama predicted his American Recovery and Reinvestment Act would "jump-start our economy" and "create new jobs" and "many years of economic growth."
Stronger economic activity, he promised, would bring in more government revenues and "cut the deficit in half by the end of my first term in office," putting "our nation on sound fiscal footing."
"The time has come to usher in a new era — a new era of responsibility in which we act not only to save and create new jobs, but also to lay a new foundation of growth," the president said.
Didn't Deliver
His recovery plan included more than $1 trillion in new government spending. A Democrat-controlled Congress passed it without a single Republican vote.
Based on the new economic program, the White House forecast real GDP in 2012 would grow at a robust 4.6% clip, cutting the unemployment rate to 6.0%. It also saw the budget deficit dropping to 3.5% of the economy.
The projections didn't come even close to panning out. Real GDP growth has stagnated at 2%, while unemployment hovers near 8%. Far from being halved, the deficit had soared to 8.5% of GDP.
As the jobless rate soared to 10% — well beyond the promised 8% high point — the White House had to adjust its assumptions and timeline. In its 2012 budget, however, it still projected 4.0% economic growth.
Despite White House spin, it became clear the president's economic plan had failed to deliver on its promised stimulus. By the summer of 2011, his entire economic team was gone.
Austan Goolsbee left as head of the Council of Economic Advisers, following on the heels of Christina Romer, the original architect of the stimulus package. Within the same 12-month period, National Economic Council director Larry Summers, budget director Peter Orszag and even Vice President Joe Biden's economic adviser also left the White House.
Gets An 'F'
Analysts say the purge was a tacit admission that Obama's own policies had failed to turn around the economy. At that point, they say, he could no longer credibly blame his predecessor or congressional Republicans for the economy's sluggish performance.
DALLAS — If America's 58th presidential election validates Ted Cruz's audacious "base plus" strategy, he will have refuted assumptions about the importance of independent "swing" voters and the inertia of many missing voters. Critics say that his plan for pursuing the Republican nomination ...
For Democrats, the 2016 presidential race is becoming eerily reminiscent of 1968's debacle. Each week, the footsteps behind their prohibitive favorite grow louder, closer and more numerous — just as they did almost 50 years ago. Increasingly, Hillary Clinton appears to be LBJ, and Bernie ...

stayed here for 4 days, was in Springfield to meet my great-grandson, the motel was a ten minute drive to my granddaughters house so it was very handy. The beds where comfortable and the room was very clean. The owners and cleaning staff where friendly, nice and helpful
We spent two nights here, not a very pleasant stay.. The room was grubby, no coffee maker although there was a fridge and a microwave. The office had a regular home style coffee maker but was not open until 6 am. The lobby was pretty undesirable also the manager was kinda scary looking and not very personable.. We did choose...

My mom and I and my three kids were on a cross country road trip when we stopped here. It was late and we needed a place to stay and I was wanting a place we could just pull up to the door and unload our stuff. So I passed the bigger hotels and found this little place. It didn't...
The motel is good. The bathrooms are clean, as well as the rooms. However, the internet connection was very bad. Non-existent actually.
Besides that, the motel is all you expect from it: near the freeway, ample parking space, all necessary commodities.
Review collected in partnership with this hotel
I was pleasantly surprised when I stayed there. It is not pretty outside but the rooms are very clean and well furnished. I had everything I needed to stay for a night. Overall room and service quality was much better then in most of chain motels I stayed before.
Even though I paid for a single, the manager put me in a large room at the same price since I asked to be closer to the Internet router. The room was well furnished, very clean, with everything I could think of and a few I would not have. Manager very helpful. Wonderful night's sleep.
Hope I run into more...
Room was clean. Nothing fancy. The air conditioning was having a hard time keeping up with the humidity. Had booked online and the innkeeper kept telling me I didn't have a reservation... this was 3 or 4 times before she looked at the fax on the machine and there it was! DUH

The Farmers Market
Karyn Robinson
Photograph - Mixed Media
I love to begin the weekend with a trip to our town's Farmer's Market. While the healthy come for the fresh assortment of fruits and vegetables, I come for the photographic opportunities.
Like this one. A multitude of jars covered this table. I love the shine on their silver lids and the bright colors of their contents. Pickles, jams, jellies, chutneys and salsas are just a few of the offerings I saw that morning.
I image the time it took to prepare all the food and then can it. I imagine all the time and hard work it took to grow it. And most of all, I like to imagine taking the time to eat it.
This would work great in a kitchen or restaurant that prides itself on serving healthy or organic foods.

"I love this pork chop recipe. This is my families favourite way to eat pork chops. These pork chops are so easy to make and the clean up is very easy as well. Although they do cook in the oven for alittle over an hour, its well worth the wait. These pork chops are great served with rice and a salad."

Stolen watch recovered by New York man after 53 years
Published October 20, 2012 1:13 pm
This is an archived article that was published on sltrib.com in 2012, and information in the article may be outdated. It is provided only for personal research purposes and may not be reprinted.
Endicott, N.Y. • A New York man whose gold watch was stolen 53 years ago when he was in the Navy has recovered the timepiece after its remarkable reappearance in Las Vegas.
Ed Grigor of Endicott says the watch disappeared in 1959 when he briefly left it unattended on a sink at a base in Virginia.
He had assumed it was gone for good.
But Grigor tells the Press & Sun-Bulletin that he got a call last month from a Las Vegas man who had found the watch in a box of unclaimed items that sailors had pawned years go at his late mother's guest house in Virginia Beach.
The man was able to track Grigor down because his name was engraved on the back.

The clear glass, still steamy from the freshly baked fare, lets guests peruse the selection before choosing and mull over the benefits of classic, chewy chocolate chip over a seasonal flavor such as pumpkin spice or a unique variety such as Coconut Paradise. If clients desire something for a special occasion, baker Cindy Hoehner can craft the cookies into larger cookie cakes, shape cookies into themed treats, or even provide premade dough for at-home baking bonding sessions.

Although Jamba Juice is serious about using wholesome ingredients, the company is a little more playful when it comes to the palate.

But Jamba Juice's commitment to keeping healthy eating simple informs its solid-food options, too. Customers can kick-start their morning with a steaming bowl of slow-cooked, steel-cut oatmeal, or stay energized throughout the day with six varieties of Energy Bowls: nutrient-rich blends of whole fruit, Greek yogurt or soy milk, and an assortment of dry toppings and fresh fruits.

Cruise boat moved to MemphremagogDecember 05,2012
NEWPORT A Lake Champlain cruise boat is getting a new home on another Vermont lake.
The boat Northern Star was taken out of the water Monday in Burlington and moved by truck to Newport on Tuesday where it is waiting to move into its new home, Lake Memphremagog.
Owner and Capt. Chris Johansen formerly captained the Newport Princess, a small tour boat on Lake Memphremagog.
The Caledonian Record reported that Johansen worked for other tour lines on Lake Champlain before deciding to bring a large charter cruise boat to Newport.
The vessel was partially disassembled before being moved early Tuesday. Johansen got a special permit from the state to move the 88,000-pound main deck and hull.
The boats top decks were removed during shipping. It will be reassembled once its back in the water.MORE IN Vermont News

Brazil's Straw Hat project helps women leave abusive situations
Has Russia saved the Assad regime from collapse?
04 Dec 2011 14:17 GMT | Politics, Africa, Congo
Opposition parties in Democratic Republic of Congo have rejected partial results released by the electoral commission giving incumbent President Joseph Kabila an early lead in the vote count from the November 28 presidential election.
In a joint statement signed by major parties, including that of veteran opposition leader Etienne Tshisekedi, the opposition on Saturday cited irregularities and said the electoral commission was "psychologically preparing the population for fraud". "As a consequence, we reject these partial results and consider them null and void," the opposition said in a statement.
It added that the manner the commission was releasing the results was illegal.
The opposition also called for mediation by other African leaders, but rejected forming a government of national unity with Kabila.
Al Jazeera's Yvonne Ndege reported from Kinshasa that all 10 opposition presidential candidates had rejected the partial results.She also said people were questioning why early results where not released from capital Kinshasa, despite 62 million votes being cast there.
"What's the opposition is saying is that these results are being released in a selective manner … the results that have been released are only coming areas where the incumbent is popular," she said."The electoral authority, according to them, is basically in cahoots with the incumbent, and basically trying to steal this election."
Stopping the train
Catholic bishops in the country sounded the alarm over the political situation on Sunday, saying it was like "a train going toward a wall" as the country awaits election results."We have the impression that in the current situation, the image we've given is that of a high-speed train going straight toward a wall," Bishop Nicolas Djombo, president of the National Episcopal Conference of the Congo, told a press conference in Kinshasa."We call on all political actors, on all leaders to brake the train, which risks going straight into the wall."The Church deployed some 30,000 observers to monitor the elections, covering 24 percent of the almost 64,000 polling centres.Djombo said that despite incidents of "irregularities, fraud attempts and violence," the elections had been credible overall.
Kabila warned
While rejecting the results, Tshisekedi, the leader of the opposition Union for Democracy and Social Progress (UDPS), issued a warning to Kabila and the chief of the National Electoral Commission (CENI), Daniel Ngoy Mulunda.
Live Box 20111125131325587866
Partial results released by CENI on Friday showed Kabila with 52 per cent of valid votes to 34 per cent for Tshisekedi, but the count included more of the incumbent's traditional strongholds than his main rival's.
"I'm warning Mr Ngoy Mulunda that the UDPS not only rejects these results, but warns Mr Ngoy Mulunda and Mr Kabila to respect the will of the Congolese people in publishing the results that will follow," he said."I'm going to say that, if they don't, they risk committing suicidal acts. I call all our people to stay vigilant so that if needed they can execute the orders I will give them," he added.UDPS Secretary General Jacquemain Shabani Lukoo said that the government risked sparking violence over the alleged massive fraud. "If they carry on like this there will be trouble, that's for sure, we will not let this lie," he said. The elections are DR Congo's second since back-to-back wars from 1996 to 2003. Fears of post-poll violence are running high after a campaign marred by deadly police crackdowns on opposition rallies and a series of clashes between Kabila's and Tshisekedi's supporters.
On Sunday, text messaging services (SMS) on cellphone networks in Kinshasa were disrupted, in a move many see as a government attempt to control attempts by the opposition to organise protests against the results.
Telephone service operators have claimed that the outage is a result of a system failure.
A source at the interior ministry, however, told the AFP news agency on Saturday that the government had ordered cellphone operators to block texting services indefinitely "because of the diffusion of false results".

NEWARK, N.J. | Michael Nylander had a pair of nifty assists and Brent Johnson recorded a shutout for two periods in a 3-2 win for the Washington Capitals against the New Jersey Devils on Monday night at Prudential Center.
Nylander set up both second-period goals as Washington forged a 2-0 advantage. The first came on the power play when he hit Mike Green with a backhanded pass through traffic (caused by Alex Ovechkin standing in front of the net) for an easy one-timer.
A little more than four minutes later, Nylander fed Boyd Gordon in front with a perfect pass, and he had enough time to stop the puck and turn partially before putting it in the net.
Johnson looked very sharp in net for the Caps. He stopped all 18 shots he faced in 40 minutes, including a couple to help thwart a three-on-five for 97 seconds in the first. Johnson has now turned aside 33 of 34 shots in his two appearances this preseason.
"I've just been trying to simplify and not make too many moves around the net," Johnson said. "Sometimes you go out there and think too much, and it ends up hurting you."
Ovechkin added his third of the preseason on a short-handed give-and-go with David Steckel 27 seconds into the third period.
Jose Theodore relieved Johnson and yielded a pair of goals, including one in the waning moments after the Devils had pulled goaltender Kevin Weekes.
Viktor Kozlov, who began the night on the top line with Ovechkin and Nicklas Backstrom, left the game in the first period with a slight groin strain.
"He's fine," Caps coach Bruce Boudreau said. "He just felt something tightening up and we said, 'Whoa, get him out of here.'"

text: Tom Schweich Schweich Ups Ante In GOP Jockeying For Big Donors For 2016 By Jo Mannies • Nov 20, 2014 (Marshall Griffin/St. Louis Public Radio) State Auditor Tom Schweich has yet to decide whether to run for governor in 2016, but he's making clear that lots of high-profile fellow Republicans want him to do so. On Thursday, Schweich's allies released "an open letter'' signed by more than 120 donors and party activists who want him to run for governor. The aim of Schweich's supporters is to portray him as a better choice, backed by more party big shots, than former House Speaker Catherine Hanaway, who already has declared her candidacy – and has promoted her own high-profile support. NY Times Investigation Leads To Questions About Koster, Money In Missouri Politics By Jo Mannies • Oct 29, 2014 Jason Rosenbaum | St. Louis Public Radio In 1991, then-Missouri Attorney General Bill Webster's ascension to become the next governor seemed inevitable. He had the looks, charisma, campaign cash and the connections. But then a controversy erupted over whether his office was giving preferential treatment to donors when it came to state contracts. A federal investigation ensued. Webster's reputation took a huge hit. Politically Speaking: GOP Consultant Keller Assesses Election Landscape By Chris McDaniel, Jason Rosenbaum & Jo Mannies • Oct 22, 2014 Chris McDaniel, St. Louis Public Radio This week, the Politically Speaking crew welcomes Gregg Keller, a locally based Republican consultant who now runs his own firm, Atlas Strategy Group. Keller represents a number of corporate and political clients, including state Auditor Tom Schweich, who's expected to run for governor in 2016. A graduate of Clayton High School, Keller got his political start after college (Florida State). He began as a volunteer, and later as a staffer, for Jim Talent when he ran in 2002 for the U.S. Senate (defeating Democratic incumbent Jean Carnahan). Missouri Auditor's Race: Is Tom Schweich Actually Running For Governor? By Marshall Griffin • Oct 18, 2014 Friends of Tom Schweich The only statewide political office up for grabs in Missouri this year doesn't appear to be anywhere near up for grabs. State Auditor Tom Schweich, a Republican, is facing only token opposition from the Libertarian and Constitution parties, and the Democrats are not fielding a challenger. This contest may serve more as a campaign for Schweich's next political goal: Libertarian nominee Sean O'Toole brought it up during a sit-down interview in September, saying that Tom Schweich is actually running for governor. Huge Sinquefield Donation Draws Blast From Camp Of GOP Rival Schweich By Jo Mannies • Oct 15, 2014 Courtesy of Rex Sinquefield's website Former Missouri House Speaker Catherine Hanaway got $750,000 this week from wealthy financier Rex Sinquefield for her 2016 campaign for governor. That's more than 10 times what she raised during the past three months. That huge donation was condemned late Wednesday by her potential rival, state Auditor Tom Schweich, a fellow Republican. His campaign accused Hanaway of being "dependent on one man and his self-proclaimed 'political army.' " State Auditor Deems Gated Parking Lot On Washington Avenue Should Be Public By Jason Rosenbaum • Oct 15, 2014 Jason Rosenbaum, St. Louis Public Radio State Auditor Tom Schweich is taking aim at a gated Downtown St. Louis parking lot that he says should be open to the public. At issue is a parking lot at 1100 Washington Ave., in the heart of downtown's bar and entertainment district. The lot is maintained by the Washington Avenue Transportation Development District (TDD), which relies on a 1-cent retail sales tax to maintain and cultivate transportation infrastructure around Washington Avenue. St. Ann Administrator Pushes Back Against Schweich — And Movement To Revamp Municipal Courts By Jason Rosenbaum • Oct 13, 2014 (via Flickr/s_falkow) Among the public policy issues that have emerged since Michael Brown's death, reforming municipal courts appears to have gained the most traction Last week, Missouri Auditor Tom Schweich announced which municipal courts his office was investigating to see whether they're keeping more traffic fine revenue than what's allowed under state law. St. Ann was one of the 10 municipalities on Schweich's list. Schweich Launches Audits Of Municipal Courts In Ferguson And Six Other Area Cities By Jason Rosenbaum • Oct 9, 2014 Jason Rosenbaum, St. Louis Public Radio State Auditor Tom Schweich will audit 10 municipal courts to see if they're running afoul of a state law that restricts how much revenue from traffic fines a city can keep. The Republican official included Ferguson's court in the tally; it has come under scrutiny since the shooting death of Michael Brown. Besides Ferguson, Schweich will audit St. Louis County-based municipal courts in Bella Villa, Pine Lawn and St. Ann. He'll also audit Foristell in St. Charles County and Foley and Winfield in Lincoln County. Schweich Will Check Whether Municipal Courts Are Collecting Too Much In Fines By Jo Mannies • Sep 16, 2014 Provided by the auditor's office Missouri state Auditor Tom Schweich plans to unveil in a few weeks a new initiative to target municipal courts that he believes may be violating state law. Schweich told members of the St. Louis Chamber at a luncheon Tuesday that his office soon will "start picking five of the most suspect courts in the state each year and checking to see if they are complying with this new law -- whether they are mistreating any person of a different race or religion and also whether they are refunding money to the state or illegally keeping money for themselves." Schweich Releases Audit Critical Of Nixon's Withholding Of Money From Budget By Marshall Griffin • Sep 8, 2014 State Auditor's office Missouri Auditor Tom Schweich says an audit released Monday shows that Gov. Jay Nixon violated Missouri's constitution when he withheld money from two recent state budgets. Schweich says the governor had no legal right to withhold $172 million from several state programs to help cover costs from the Joplin tornado and other recent natural disasters during fiscal year 2012.

Last Friday was shaping up as a splendid way to greet the weekend. I began working on the farm at 7 a.m., picking squash and cucumbers among other chores. That afternoon I was alone, weeding by hand around some of our later cucumber plants when my phone rang. It was my father, who was out of sight but only about 100 yards away, suckering tomatoes. We were both aware that the Boston Bruins were looking to make some moves that day in anticipation of that
Good morning! Growing up in Greenfield, Kevin Hassett loved canoeing on Barton Cove, hiking along Sachem's Head and watching the Fourth of July fireworks at Beacon Field. "There are so many wonderful things about Greenfield, it's hard to pick a favorite," said Hassett, who walks the trails behind Highland Pond with his father whenever he's home. If he ever does come home for good, he would be a terrific mayor. Hassett is the Director of Economic Policy Studies at the American Enterprise Institute, a Washington
Yes, it came out of the blue a couple of weeks ago by email from someone I did not know. No, her question was not unique. In fact, it seems I am asked the same question on every visit to my longtime vet's office, and often in the public square: Are you finding a lot of ticks? Now, let me say I can understand why folks figure that, because my dogs and I routinely patrol off-road habitats with thick cover — traipsing through chest-high hayfields
Jim Woodward and John Cena share a common bond. That may seem a bit wild, since the former is the longtime football and track & field coach and athletic director at Mahar Regional School, while the later is one of the world's most recognizable professional wrestlers. But in April, both men were enshrined into the Springfield College Hall of Fame during the 44th enshrinement ceremony, forever linking the men. "I mean, John Cena," exclaimed Woodward of his 2015 Hall of Fame classmate. "I really would
Good morning! Tampa's Skip Smith has a travel tip for Caribbean-bound vacationers: watch your wallet. "Two guys on my crew learned the hard way," said Smith. "One spent $12 on lighters in the casino shop and his card was charged over $950, and another guy in the same shop was charged $500 for a $20 purchase. Lots of tourists don't realize they're ripped off until after they've left the island." Smith is a Shelburne native and sports cameraman. "A few weeks ago I was watching
A gray, rainy afternoon brought news of the same somber hue to my Recorder desk late Monday afternoon: old friend Walter T. Kostanski Jr., known playfully to me as Honorable Walter T., was dead and gone at 91. I had just put to bed the first draft of a column suggested by a female reader explaining my unscientific take on ticks when Recorder advertising sales rep. Mike Currie passed by as he often does at that time of day. He stopped to chat, not unusual,
For the past eight years, I've covered Turners Falls native Sonya Lamonakis as she has risen from amateur Golden Gloves champion to professional women's heavyweight world champion. Now, another local woman is trying to make a name for herself in the ring. No. Make that caged octagon. Greenfield native and 2006 Pioneer Valley Regional School grad Sarah Payant is quickly climbing the ranks of the rapidly growing women's mixed martial arts world. Payant, who has the fighting nickname "Soulja," will get a huge opportunity in
Good morning! It might take some prodding, but even a sports fan like myself can enjoy the theater. On May 14 in Keene, my friend Marilyn Medina and I had $59 orchestra seats for an evening with David Sedaris at the historic Colonial Theatre. The 58-year-old Sedaris is an essayist and humorist who writes for the New Yorker Magazine, has eight books with 10 million copies in print and does two stand-up tours a year across the U.S. and Europe. He hit it big, but
Gray, damp, windy. Storm brewing. Wild-rose buds bursting into fragrant white blossoms emitting that sweet, unmistakable scent that money can't buy. I look forward to the two weeks it annually lingers, making our daily rambles all the more pleasant. I should have known what was coming next. So predictable if you keep a journal. Yes, as is customary when the sweet fragrance of multiflora rose fills Sunken Meadow and my front yard, I can expect turtle migration from marsh to field to lay eggs. And,
Good morning! Come back Theo, the Red Sox need you. Owner John Henry will piggyback you to Secaucus for Monday's draft. It starts at 6 p.m. and the first 75 picks will be televised. The Red Sox pick seventh and 81st overall, and they need to hit the lottery. Only seven percent of all players who ink pro contracts ever reach the big leagues, which underscores Epstein's success in his last draft for the Red Sox before he left for the Cubs. That was 2011
