A very serious piece of news, if it should be confirmed, is that the Basutos have begun to attack the Free State. The British authorities have exerted themselves to the utmost to prevent this and to keep the Kaffir population quiet. The mere fact of the existence all over South Africa of a Kaffir population outnumbering Boers and British together made it an imperative duty of both white races to come to a peaceful settlement. This was as well known to the Boers as to the British, and forms an essential factor in any judgment on the action which has caused and precipitated the conflict.
_October 25th_, 1899
The Boer Commander-in-Chief has beyond doubt grasped the situation. His total force seems to be larger than was usually expected and to exceed my own rough estimate of thirty-five thousand men, the balance to his advantage being due probably to the British efforts to keep the Basutos from attacking the Free State. Thus the Boers have been able to overrun their weste

A Moody, Sprawling Soundscape of Futuristic Jazz
Tuesday's Pick
- Song: "The Passenger"
- Artist: Floratone
- CD: Floratone
- Genre: Jazz
Producers aren't usually billed as prominently as performers, especially in jazz. But while purists often discount overdubbing as diminishing jazz's improvisational nature, studio trickery is nothing new for the genre. Following in the footsteps of Miles Davis and Teo Macero's legendary artist-producer relationship — on In A Silent Way, Bitches Brew and On the Corner — Floratone takes the idea of studio manipulation to a glorious extreme.
The collaboration formed after prolific jazz guitarist Bill Frisell and famed session drummer Matt Chamberlain teamed up for a stream-of-consciousness jam session, then brought in veteran producers Lee Townsend and Tucker Martine to shape those raw tracks. The producers were tasked with manipulating, splicing, treating and generally making sense of the freeform music.
That's not to say the album devolves into unfocused jams. Much in the way Davis and Macero sculpted those early electric albums, songs such as "The Passenger" slowly reveal themselves as fully realized compositions. Frisell's tremolo-intensive guitar sits front and center, teasing out references to gritty desert rock, Spaghetti Western soundtracks and even the slinky upstroke strums of dub and reggae. But as the Davis-esque trumpet melodies unfold over Chamberlain's swampy New Orleans shuffle, Townsend and Martine's sounds seep with languid, ethereal atmosphere. The moody, sprawling soundscape of futuristic jazz that results functions as a fine showcase of both production artistry and instrumental prowess.
Listen to yesterday's 'Song of the Day.'

Nixon Genie Watch Runs With the 8-Ball Crowd
While Nixon's Genie watch may look like your garden variety affair, and for the most part it is, it actually offers a little something special which is a throw back to the late 90s. Aside from including the time, date, day, a timer and stopwatch, it boasts a Magic 8 Ball function. Don't remember what that is? Do a quick search in Google. Too lazy for that? Ask the watch a question, hit a button and it will deliver a seemingly random yet astute response, such as "why not?".
You can grab it for $120.

On average, there are 93,000 daily flights originating from about 9,000 airports around the world. At any given time, there are between 8,000 and 13,000 planes in the air around the globe.Know More
Despite the large number of flights in the air on a daily basis, the number of fatal crashes has been on the decline. One of the primary reasons for the decrease rests in advancements in technology. This includes equipment designed to detect turbulence or wind shear, major causes of crashes and mishaps. With this new technology, pilots are now able to avoid significant turbulence or wind shear all together, making the skies safer.Learn more about Airplanes & Helicopters
While each airline may have their own system for numbering flights, it is safe to assume that a flight with an even number is heading either east or north, while a flight with an odd number is traveling south or west.Additionally, flights with fewer digits are typically more popular routes than those that are assigned higher numbers.Full Answer >

CAIRO — Had Egypt's post-revolutionary political winds held steady, Mohammed Morsi, the Muslim Brotherhood's presidential candidate, would have been coasting to victory in this month's election.
Instead, he's running an underdog campaign. The group's prodigious political machine, which turned the once-besieged opposition movement into the dominant force in parliament early this year, has to contend with an uncharismatic candidate and a shift in public opinion as many Egyptians have soured on the venerable Islamist organization.

Rejoice Old School Gamers Because 'NFL Blitz' is Back! [REVIEW]

'Assassin's Creed Revelations' is a game for history buffs, lovers of 16th century Constantinople, conspiracy theorists and anyone who would like to shank Adrian Peterson and Derrick Rose in the streets of 16th century Constantinople.
Even if 'Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3' was a terrible disappointment that also punched you in the groin every time you loaded the game, you'd have to buy it.
Throughout the '90s, Korn were one of the most celebrated bands on the planet. The nu-metal pioneers pumped out hit after hit to their rabid fan base. A true testament to Korn's auditory power was when 'Freak on a Leash' came in at No. 1 on MTV's 'Total Request Live,' beating out N'Sync and the Backstreet Boys after the two boy bands had been the only artists to top the 'TRL' countdown for six months.
Only three words describe this movie - TOTAL EPIC AWESOMENESS!
We were talking just the other day in the lunch room here at the radio station about how much food prices have gone up lately. There was a time not too long ago when you could spend $5 on lunch. Now you're lucky to get out for much less than $10. Any decent combo meal at McDonald's or Whataburger is going to run you at least $7 after tax. I have made a list of some of my favorite places to eat that are a little easier on the wallet. The list after the jump.

Recording of chimes being twirled around. Recorded with a Telex Microphone with a small felt coin bag over the end to muffle high frequency noise often heard in my recordings. The chimes are VERY resonant and if you add reverb they sound very nice. I left out the reverb when processing this sample so users can have the freedom to add their preferred reverb tool for the best results.
Nicely done, thank you!
too much noise on this recording!
Really nice, this sounded to me really familiar then I realized Burial might have sampled it (Stolen Dog ending).
Awesome thanks. You know what might sound cool? Wind chimes on like a minor scale..been looking for that.

Shortly before the start of a "Grassroots Organizing Meeting with Hillary Clinton" at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, the backdrop of the stage fell down. Watch the video from America Rising PAC here:
In the days before the Fox News debate last week, Donald Trump said he wasn't looking to attack any of his Republican rivals unless he was attacked. That's changed, apparently.

On July 16, we saw the definitive end to one of the greatest abuses of power in recent memory. After five years, the Wisconsin supreme court finally halted the Milwaukee district attorney's notorious "John Doe" investigation that targeted Governor Scott Walker and political allies trying to reform the state's laws regarding fiscally ruinous public employee unions.
Waukesha Wisconsin governor Scott Walker entered the Republican presidential race Monday in a forward-looking announcement speech that touched upon conservative principles that have guided his work in the state.
Milwaukee Scott Walker isn't big on self-reflection.
Thousands appeared in Madison, Wisconsin Wednesday night for a rally supporting Bernie Sanders, the independent senator from Vermont running for the Democratic nomination for president. CNN reporter Dan Merica tweeted a photo of the rally held at Veterans Memorial Coliseum, which seats 10,000 people and looks nearly full:

Fresh off its widely-mocked exclusive on the traffic citations given Marco and Jeannette Rubio – fewer than one per year, combined – the New York Times has an in-depth look at Scott Walker and the wealthy conservatives who backed him throughout his rise to national prominence. It's a classic of the genre.
Oklahoma CityWisconsin governor Scott Walker says Hillary Clinton's habit of communicating with Sidney Blumenthal, a Clinton Foundation employee, while serving as secretary of state is "wrong on so many levels."
"It's part of a troubling trend across the board where the Clintons seemed to be held to a different standard than everyone else," said Walker in an interview with THE WEEKLY STANDARD following his address to the Southern Republican Leadership Conference.
A new Quinnipiac poll of likely Iowa Republican presidential caucusgoers finds Wisconsin's Scott Walker in front of the GOP pack with 21 percent support and a 9-point advantage over his closest primary opponents.
Every true conservative, or at least every Republican conservative, knows that our freedoms are under continuing threat from the Obama administration, which has already seized control of the health care and energy sectors, and is circling the education sector with the threat of a core curriculum. Worry not. Our Republican guardians are on the alert. At least in Wisconsin.
Scott Walker and Hillary Clinton may very well face off against other in the general election for president next year, but the Republican from Wisconsin has claimed to have had Clinton's number for more than a decade. Long before he had become a national figure, Walker said on a Wisconsin radio show that the first lady and future senator and secretary of state polls best when "people feel a bit sympathetic for her having to be married to Bill."
Scott Walker may not be a candidate for president yet, but the Wisconsin governor's growing political action committee staff is already going after a potential rival in the Republican primary. GOP strategist Liz Mair, CNN reports, has just signed on to consult for Walker's Our American Revival PAC, doing outreach to bloggers and other digital media outlets.
Urbandale, Iowa
Scott Walker has won every round of his long fight with Big Labor in Wisconsin, but it wasn't until November 4 that he delivered the knockout punch. In his third gubernatorial election in four years, Walker defeated Democratic challenger Mary Burke by 6 points. It was the same margin of victory he had in the 2010 Republican wave and just a point shy of his 2012 performance in a union-funded recall.
Two years after it was supposed to help revitalize Atlantic City, the $2.4 billion Revel casino—all 57 stories of it—is closed. It's an expensive eyesore that sums up Atlantic City's decline.
Vegas is still a big draw, but it's an anomaly these days. Destination gambling, as it was once known, is dying: 80 percent of states now have some form of legalized gaming.

Library Wars: Love & War, Vol. 1
by Kiiro Yumi, Hiro Arikawa (Creator)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
I like both central conceits - the dystopian censorship that requires militant librarians, and the girl working her way up through the toughest ranks through sheer stubbornness. I had fun with this book, but it didn't grab me enough to make me want to seek out the rest of the series right away. I'll certainly keep it in mind next time I need some shojo manga.
Iku Kasahara is a new recruit in the Library Defense Force -- an organization that has been created to combat the new governmental censorship policy that threatens to destroy all books containing materials considered objectionable by the federal government. As if things weren't hard enough dealing with all of the tough physical training involved, it seems one of her instructors pretty much has it in for her -- not to mention another recruit that just won't stop criticizing her. Being in the Defense Force is her dream though, and she won't let them get in the way.
I like Kasahara and the entire concept of Library Wars is a lot of fun. Libraries and censorship are things that interest (and concern) me, so imagining a future where access to books is threatened in the way it is in Library Wars is thrilling and I can easily imagine myself in Kasahara's place. I would also do whatever it took to protect the right to access books! It is clear that there will almost certainly be a love triangle involved at some point in the future in this series, but as I said -- I like Kasahara, and I like Dojo -- her trainer. I am feeling ambivalent about her co-recruit, Tezuka, but he might grow on me eventually.
The art is so-so in my opinion. It doesn't stand out in any particular way, but it's soft and consistent and well-suited to the story. At times the book seems to drift off and not follow any particular direction and it can get a little bit tedious. I found the segment where they go for training in the woods incredibly out of place. I appreciate the character development that occurred in that chapter, but sometimes it feels as though the writer is just piecing together a bunch of disconnected subplots without much care to the broader story. I'm hoping that clears up as it progresses.
I would definitely like to keep reading to find out what happens.
I've never read manga before, so I have nothing to compare this to, really, but I enjoyed it. The government is waging a censor war on books, but local libraries have the power to protect books and keep those with "objectionable" bits from being destroyed. Members of the Librarian Defense Force receive both librarian and military training so they can be effective in the fight against censorship. Corporal Iku Kasahara, a new trainee, is passionate about the Defense Force because of a childhood incident. She's also got a hate/crush relationship with one of her instructors. And it goes from there. I gather this is an example of shoujo manga, which is aimed primarily at teenaged girls. That's reflected a bit in the themes, but it seems comparable to good YA fiction. I like the premise and the art, and this was a fun way to spend a few hours. Will probably carry on with the series from the library.
I actually really enjoyed this book. I love libraries and reading so it looked interested when it appeared in a poll for one of my group's monthly reads. It's a bit predictable and I see a love triangle on the horizon, but I like the characters and I think I will continue reading the series.
Interesting enough to request the next in the series from the library. Not sure if I'm a fan of manga. I did like the little drawings that where the main characters internal dialog or side thoughts. I did not like the relationship between the main character and some of the other characters. But the story was great. I'll see what the next in the series brings.

"In the near future, the federal government creates a committee to rid society of books it deems unsuitable. The libraries vow to protect their collections, and with the help of local governments, form a military group to defend themselves---the Library Forces! Iku Kasahara has dreamed of joining the Library Defense Force ever since one of its soldiers stepped in to protect her favorite book from being confiscated in a bookstore when she was younger. But now that she's finally a recruit, she's finding her dream job to be a bit of a nightmare. Especially since her hard-hearted drill instructor seems to have it in for her!"--P.

The Obama administration's much-touted "pivot" to Asia has a militaristic side that involves encouraging Japan to abandon its post-World War II pacifism and make its revamped military a U.S. ally in containing China, as Tim Shorrock explains to Dennis J Bernstein.
Right Wing
Renewed Violence Boosts Netanyahu
The day-in-day-out goal of Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu seems to be how to prevent the compromise and reconciliation needed to achieve a comprehensive peace. In that sense, the latest rounds of violence and hatred are serving his interests well, as ex-CIA analyst Paul R. Pillar notes.
Confronting Terrorism with Peace
Violent counterterrorism rides the wave of public outrage over the cruel behavior of terrorists, which is often exactly what the terrorists want, a downward spiral into more killing and mayhem. Some experts see the need for a more constructive approach, says Erin Niemela.
NYT Dishes More Ukraine Propaganda
Exclusive: The mainstream U.S. media continues to sell the American people a one-sided storyline on the Ukraine crisis as the Kiev regime celebrates a key military victory at Slovyansk, an eastern city at the center of ethnic Russian resistance to last February's violent coup that ousted elected President Yanukovych, writes Robert Parry.
Obama's Options on Iraq
Instead of sending U.S. troops back to Iraq to fight a resurgent Sunni jihadist insurgency, the Obama administration should put the squeeze on Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states to stop pouring billions of dollars into these radical groups, says Adil E. Shamoo.
The Cost of Iraq War Immunity
If Official Washington were not the corrupt and dangerous place that it is, the architects and apologists for the Iraq War would have faced stern accountability. Instead, they are still around – holding down influential jobs, making excuses and guiding the world into more wars, as ex-CIA analyst Paul R. Pillar notes.
Thomas Jefferson: America's Founding Sociopath
Special Report: For many Americans, Thomas Jefferson is the beloved author of the Declaration of Independence so they broach no criticism of him. But the real Jefferson may have been America's founding sociopath, a man of racist self-interest and endless hypocrisies, writes Robert Parry.
Itching for a Genocide
Exclusive: A meeting of French, German, Russian and Ukrainian foreign ministers sought a new ceasefire in Ukraine, but the U.S. State Department and the mainstream U.S. media seem eager for more bloodshed, an unseemly rush into a war that could become genocide, writes Robert Parry.
The Risk of a Ukraine Bloodbath
Exclusive: Pressured by neocons and the mainstream U.S. media, the Obama administration is charting a dangerous course by seeking a military solution to Ukraine's political crisis and possibly provoking Moscow to intervene to protect ethnic Russians, ex-CIA analyst Ray McGovern warns.
A Band-Aid Approach to Fixing the V.A.
Despite promises from the Bush-43 administration that the Iraq War would pay for itself, the price tag keeps soaring with the predictable impact on V.A. hospitals struggling to care for wounded warriors. But the political solution has been to make a change at the top, as ex-CIA analyst Paul R. Pillar notes.

Cool. It's incredibly informal. No idea how many people will show up. Might be just me! If the weather forecast looks bad therefore, I wouldn't make the trip if I were you. But if everything works out, we'd be happy to have you!
Lets see what the work schedule looks like. I will try to make it!

Canceled due to high winds. Might try again Oct. 21.
Sky was a little overcaste but wind was great here, Western Australia. Took the kids, 7 & 4, out and gave them a go on my SLE. Put up my little foil for them so we could fly together. Also gave away a little dualie delta to a kid cause his kite's sail was rotten to the point of unflyable. That felt good!

Glad your fly worked out. We had sustained winds of 20 MPH gusting to 45 MPH (32 KPH gusting to 72 KPH), so we had to cancel. It's looking like we might try again this coming Sunday, even though it won't be the official OSOW day.

Dear American Airlines: please stop sucking. I'm really, really tired of you people sucking. Seven years ago I complained about how much you sucked and guess what: you still suck!
This trip we were stuck for four hours in an aisle with no window. I don't mean we didn't have a window seat, I mean the plane physically had no window on our aisle, something we did not know was even possible on a 737. I've certainly never seen such a thing before, but just to prove it, here's a photo:
I was very puzzled about why our row didn't have a window. When I pointed it out to the flight attendant she looked at it and said, "Oh. Huh! Weird." And walked away.
Not to sound petty, but four hours in a cramped cabin with no window was pretty excrutiating for me. But more to the point, I was unhappy that we paid the same for our windowless seat as we would have if we'd had a window. Seems like if you're stuck in cargo you should at least get a discount. Even worse, when we picked our seats, the online diagram made no mention of the fact that these were windowless seats. Seems like that might be some information you'd want to share with your customers.
I'm still not sure why we didn't have a window. Maybe someone in the airline biz can explain it to me. Via Twitter I was told that there is a ventilation/air conditioning duct on this part of the plane so it's not possible to have a window here. That's fine, but you'd think they'd have the ability to tell people this ahead of time.
But when I complained through their customer relations department, I got a very bizarre email that blamed "the economic realities of our business" and "competition" and low-cost carriers like JetBlue:
I regret the seat you were assigned did not have a window in that row. Unfortunately, the economic realities of our business just won't allow us to make drastic cabin changes with regard to seating. Because of competition between all airlines, we must use each airplane as efficiently as possible. As low-cost carriers and other major airlines make use of all available space aboard their planes, we must be competitive and do the same.
OH. So in other words, I might as well fly a low-cost carrier because my experience is going to suck just as bad on American. Is that what you mean? Because that's what you're saying.
So, duly noted, folks. I'll definitely keep that in mind for future air travel. After all, I have my own economic realities to take into consideration.

Funny to hear Scott Walker talking about building a wall on the Canadian border when I'm up here traveling through a place where it seems nearly impossible to build a wall. That's British Columbia in the background, folks. Good luck walling this mother off:
And just to show you how glorious it is up here:
A couple of years ago we traveled through the Canadian Rockies, which also seems nearly impossible to wall off. Republicans are so fucking stupid.

Weather has been schizo. A big wind kicked up yesterday but it's been sunny and calm most of the rest of the time. We were supposed to get rain but it was more of a drizzle. Mostly rains at night here. So beautiful.

Some very interesting comments on my gun control thread below, thanks to everyone for the dialogue. Mr. Beale and I are on the road for our annual late summer excursion so my ability to participate has been limited. However, I do read all of the comments, even if I can't always respond.
Three guesses where we are (hint: it's my most favorite place in the world, or at least, top three):
When I get back to Nashville my hope is to be able to devote more time to the blog. This summer was brutal, my work schedule was insane, and I decided to scale back and take on a lighter workload this fall so I can devote myself to other things. So I hope that means I can get back to doing some of my regular postings, like Good News Friday and the Tennessee Gun Report.
Anyway, again I am thankful to you readers who humble me with your intelligent discussion and willingness to read my silly rantings. You make this thing fun.
More travel pics to come, even though guess which idiot left her camera at home this time? Me! Cell phones can't do the beauty of this place justice.

We've just returned from our travels and I promised you some graffiti blogging. Unfortunately, we chose to travel to the cleanest place in America, so there was a startling lack of graffiti.

Somewhere not too far from where the above photo was taken there is an organic olive oil farm for sale. Cheap, too, as these things go — under $1 million. In my dreams I win the lottery and say goodbye to Nashville and start my organic olive oil operation, all sustainable, off-grid, and solar-powered.
I know a lot of you will see this picture and think, "Ick. Too scorched." This is the landscape I grew up with, though, and to me it's the prettiest place on earth. And if the nation is going to get embroiled in another military adventure in the Middle East, what better place to hole up than an organic, sustainable, off-grid, solar-powered olive oil ranch? Y'all come. Harvest is in November. Democommie, you can even bring Buddy.
So, I don't confess to be any genius about Syria, or what Russia and China have to do with it, or any of the larger issues involved. I don't have a private Joint Chiefs to advise me. I am reflexively anti-war, but I trust President Obama in a way that I didn't trust President Bush, in part because of the massive Neocon-War-Machine-Halliburton-Blackwater-Big Oil rip-off behind the Bush-Cheney-Rummy cabal. That said, I remain reflexively anti-war, always.
As I sip my chardonnay from a vacation la-la land, I have to say: watching the war dialogue this time — a tad more than 10 years after the Iraq invasion — is an amazing thing to see. Remember when the media lost its collective mind? Remember when we were told, ad nauseum, that Saddam Hussein "gassed his own people", and so an invasion was justified? Remember when not supporting/trusting the president's war judgement was tantamount to treason? My, what some distance from 9/11 brings.
I heard today that Britain's Parliament has voted against military involvement in Syria. Are we going to dump English breakfast tea in the gutters? Will English muffins be renamed "Freedom Muffins" in the Congressional cafeteria? No? Why not?
Just curious: is this reticence to rush to war because we've learned some lessons after the Iraq debacle? Or is this just more reflexive If-Obama-Wants-It-We're-Against-It stuff from the GOP?
These are interesting times, indeed. The United States is now a major oil producer, for the first time in decades. It's safe to say, oil embargoes are not the threat they once were. Surely that plays into the mix, yes?
I am reflexively anti-war, always. I'm also on vacation and haven't been watching the news 24/7 as I usually do. From the snippets I've received, I'm not hearing "let's invade/occupy" from the President. I'm hearing, "let's take action." I'd like to know more what that means.
I'm also hearing more questioning than I heard in the run-up to Iraq. I'm seeing a news media behave a tad more responsibly. I observe these things and am glad that we're not so gung-ho for war, but really questioning the motives behind all of it.
I probably shouldn't look these gift horses in the mouth. I probably should retire to my olive ranch and just breathe deep and go about my business.

Fluoride works in three ways to protect teeth from attack by the acids that are produced by sugars:
Colgate Fluorigard Daily Dental Rinse contains:
Sodium fluoride BP 0.05% w/w
My dentist tells me this is the most effective mouthwash around to actually prevent cavities. I wouldnt say its cheap but its very good stuff.
This mouthwash was recommended by my dentist for use each night. It seems to be effective in reducing decay

JERSEY FOOTLIGHTS; Every Tune Tells a Story
By ROBBIE WOLIVER
Published: April 30, 2000
Chuck Brodsky is a man who lives to tell a tale, and what tales this singer-songwriter from Philadelphia has. He worked as a migrant fruit picker, ice cream truck driver, Israeli kibbutz laborer, bank courier (he was fired after losing a $10 million check), and a street singer in Europe. With insight and good humor, he has taken these life experiences and distilled them into old-fashioned story songs (Mark Twain is a big influence) brimming with wit and compassion.
Mr. Brodsky and his Dylanesque style captured the attention of the national folk scene with his 1995 debut, ''A Fingerpainter's Murals,'' which included ''Blow 'em Away,'' about a commuter gone mad (a pistol is involved) and ''We Are Each Others' Angels,'' which was recorded by Kathy Mattea, the country-folk star.
In 1996, he released ''Letters in the Dirt,'' which featured lyrical portraits of such characters as a roadside peach vendor (''Bill & Annie'') and the first white baseball player in the Negro Leagues (''The Ballad of Eddie Klepp'').
Mr. Brodsky's latest CD, ''Radio,'' is one of the strongest of his career, featuring insightful songs, memorable characters and first-rate instrumentation. He will perform music from ''Radio'' and other audience favorites on at 8:30 p.m. Friday at the Cultural Center's Folk Project Minstrel Coffeehouse series, 300 Mendham Road, Morristown, (973) 335-9489.

The New York Mets have picked up right where they left off last year by not producing with runners in scoring position.
They'll look to end their funk in those situations starting with the opener of a three-game road series against the St. Louis Cardinals on Tuesday night.
New York (6-6) hit .253 with runners in scoring position last season, tied for 11th in the NL. The Mets batted .236 with one homer in those situations over their last 17 games, going 7-10 to blow a 3 1/2-game lead to Philadelphia in the NL East and miss the playoffs.
Nothing's changed this season, as New York is hitting .236 with runners on second and third. The club went 2-for-13 in those situations during Sunday's 4-2 loss to Milwaukee, preventing the Mets from completing a three-game sweep.
"We just haven't clicked yet with runners in scoring position - and we will. We have too many good hitters," manager Jerry Manuel said. "I can't say that at this point this early in the season that I'm upset with anybody's approach. I think it's more into anxiety than anything. It's wanting to get it done. And that's not a bad thing."
One Met struggling with runners in scoring position is David Wright, who's 3-for-13 with a homer and four RBIs. The All-Star third baseman is hitless in his last seven at-bats overall after going 13-for-38 (.342) in the first 10 games.
Wright could get back on track in this series, as he has a .455 average with three homers and seven RBIs in his last nine games against St. Louis (8-5). He's 5-for-7 against Todd Wellemeyer, the Cardinals' scheduled starter for Tuesday.
The Mets have won nine of 14 meetings with the Cards and five of seven at Busch Stadium since losing to them in the 2006 league championship series.
Oliver Perez (1-1, 7.84 ERA) looks to extend the Mets' run of success in St. Louis as he makes his first start against the Cardinals since June 26, 2007. Perez allowed two runs in 6 1-3 innings of a 5-3, 11-inning win in that game.
The left-hander rebounded from a dismal season debut in strong fashion Wednesday, allowing one run and three hits in six innings of a 7-2 win over San Diego. On April 9, he gave up eight runs and five hits with five walks in 4 1-3 innings of an 8-6 loss at Cincinnati.
Perez, though, is 0-1 with a 5.84 ERA in five starts at Busch.
The Cardinals, losers of their last two games since a 7-1 stretch, will give the ball to Wellemeyer (1-1, 4.50) after his scheduled start at Chicago on Sunday was postponed due to rain.
The right-hander would have been counted on to pitch deep into the finale of the four-game series after manager Tony La Russa used five relievers in a 7-5, 11-inning loss Saturday.
"We're pretty maxed out, but we had enough pitching to pitch the game (on Sunday)," Cards pitching coach Dave Duncan told the team's official Web site. "But it gets to the point where you start pushing guys a little bit."
Wellemeyer is looking to win his second straight start after allowing one run over seven innings of a 2-1 victory at Arizona on Monday. That was a vast improvement from his performance April 8, when he gave up five runs and 12 hits over five innings of a 7-4 loss to Pittsburgh.
He's 0-1 with a 6.89 ERA in five games - two starts - against the Mets.

- June 20, 2014 - The Only good thing about Rhodes is the NJROTC program . The rest of the teachers don't care - Posted by Parent
- September 26, 2007 - I am a parent and I attended Cleve. public schools my whole life, I think this school is terrible, the principal, needs to be replaced!! and the disciplinary action needs an overhaul, I am appalled by the number of students who failed 9th grade, that is a failure of the school. Teachers kick kids out of class for misbehaving and disrupting the class, then they just do what ever they want, or the principal brings them back and yells at the teacher in front of the students!!! Tell me that is not creating a bigger problem. Why not punish the kids for misbehaving, and make them accountable for their actions, if there are no consequences, why SHOULD they care? - Posted by Parent

Name: Edward George Ellis, 76
Body found: At YMCA apartment, 25 E. 16th Ave.
Investigative agency: Denver police
Date bludgeoned: June 25, 1985
Cause of Death Beating
Suspect: no one identified
Edward George Ellis was an awkward square dancer.
But the 76-year-old man loved it.
Every chance he could get he would join groups called the Promenaders, the Rocky Tops and the Fiddlesteppers in the early 1980s.
The Texas native born May 26, 1909 had retired years earlier from a job at giant pharmaceutical company Parke-Davis, according to an article by retired Denver Post reporter Jim Kirksey.
"He loved square dancing. It was his life," a casual acquaintance of his told Kirksey.
But he was a loner who had lived off of Social Security payments of less than $500 a month since 1973.
Ellis lived at Denver's central YMCA until the day he was badly beaten on June 25, 1985.
Night manager Albert Sheek found Ellis lying in his room surrounded by dried blood. There was no sign of a forced entry, and his wallet with $4 and credit cards were found, but his room appeared to be ransacked.
Police tried to question him about the beating but Ellis didn't remember the attack.
A YMCA resident told police that Ellis had a bad habit of leaving his room open when he went to the bathroom.
The door was propped open at about 1:10 a.m., according to one witness. But when he returned later two men were leaving and shut the door behind them.
Ellis lived for another month. Only one person visited him in the hospital. He died from his injuries on July 28, 1985.
Kirksey wrote that while his body was in the morgue for 24 days nobody claimed it.
At his pauper's burial that cost the city $500, no one was there to say goodbye. Moore-Howard Mortuary donated his fee for a simple casket, service and plot at Hampden Memorial Gardens was paid for by Moore-Howard Mortuary.
"This guy was as lonely a guy as you're ever going to find in Denver," Bob Waind of the Promenaders was quoted as saying.
A quarter century later, no charges have ever been filed for his death.
Contact information: The Denver Police Department can be reached at 720-913-7867. Denver Post reporter Kirk Mitchell at 303-954-1206 or firstname.lastname@example.com

Woodridge accepts plan to rebuild, renovate schools
PENINSULA — The Woodridge Local School District is proceeding with a facilities plan to rebuild and renovate its current four buildings into three, all on the same campus.
Board of Education members voted unanimously at a special community forum meeting June 4 to accept the master facilities plan prepared by consultants Chuck Warner, of Warner Concepts LLC, and Chas Schreckenberger, of Braun & Steidl Architects, and presented to the board May 15.
Based on community response to surveys at two open dialogue meetings and on the district's website, the plan calls for three schools — an elementary school for prekindergarten through fifth grade; a middle school for sixth through eighth grades; and a high school for ninth through 12th grades.
Response was nearly unanimous among those who filled out the questionnaires that they wanted this grade configuration, and they wanted the three schools to be on the same campus, where the middle and high schools currently are, on Quick Road.
Warner and Schreckenberger presented a detailed assessment of the four current schools and recommendations for what should be done with each.
The 1928 Primary School and the 1930/1952 Intermediate School are the oldest and most in need of work, they said. For both, the cost to renovate would be more than 80 percent of the cost of replacement, far exceeding the construction rule of thumb that any building requiring at least 67 percent of the rebuild cost to renovate should be built new.
Major repairs and replacement would be needed, Warner said, and "even after you do the repairs, it still won't be efficient space." Classrooms in 1928 were much smaller than today's classrooms, and the walls were 18 inches thick compared to today's 12-inch-thick walls. There is much wasted space in old buildings, he said, and they are not sufficient for today's educational needs.
The district recently had to fix the wastewater treatment plant near the Primary School that was in danger of failing and not up to Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) standards. It was able to remove the original system and connect to a nearby sewer, according to district officials.
The same serious septic problem also applies at the Intermediate School, on Bronson Road in Peninsula, but there is no sewer nearby to connect to, Schreckenberger said. The EPA has notified the Village of Peninsula it needs to spend a great deal of money to meet EPA requirements, he said.
Superintendent Walter Davis said the EPA has granted Woodridge a two-year "reprieve," an extension on the time allowed to fix the septic problem at the Intermediate School, until the district decides what to do with the school in its facilities plan.
If the Intermediate School is closed and demolished, the septic problem would not need to be fixed, according to district officials. If the building is renovated or sold, the problem would still need fixing.
Schreckenberger pointed out that building codes are constantly changing, and meeting accessibility codes, energy codes and other codes in old buildings would be a large expense. The buildings would need new heating, ventilation and air conditioning equipment; windows; insulation; and more, he said.
Davis said with renovating, "It would cost a fortune to bring the buildings up to code, but the structure inside would be the same — it limits what we can do educationally. The music class would still be in a windowless room on the lower level" of the Intermediate School.
The master plan's recommendations, which closely mirror the results of the votes of community members who responded, include building a new elementary school on the same Quick Road campus, renovating the Middle School — including a new roof to replace the one that has already leaked — and renovating the high school and adding on to it for needed space.
The June 4 meeting was scheduled to get more community feedback on the plan, but only a small group turned out. Board member Tammy Heffernan expressed disappointment the high school library wasn't filled.
"Then people say they didn't know" about the plans, she said.
Davis agreed that "people have a responsibility to remain informed" and noted the district distributed information through meetings, the website and the news media. He urged the board to move forward, because "we're going to pay one way or the other. We will have to do a lot of repairs if the [two buildings] are not replaced."
Urged on by the small but persuasive audience, the board members voted unanimously to accept the plan and asked Treasurer Deanna Levenger to look into what needs to be done to put a bond issue to pay for the work on the November ballot. The plan as accepted would cost around $33 million, which is Woodridge's debt limit for a bond issue, Levenger said.
The board also approved, as urgent necessity, buying three school buses. Two of the district's older buses recently did not pass inspection by the Ohio State Highway Patrol, and they had already been planning to purchase five new ones, Levenger said.
These three buses are available for purchase now, Davis said, and the usual three-reading process to approve the purchase would take too long to have the buses for the start of school in August. They will not use the two buses that did not pass inspection anymore, he said, but will sell them for scrap.
The board's next regular meeting is scheduled for June 17 at 6 p.m. in the Woodridge High School Library, 4440 Quick Road.

Ulrich Krieger follows up his successful 'A Cage of Saxophones I' volume with the second installment of Cage works for saxophone(s), spanning a period of over 50 years. For this volume Krieger combines works specifically composed for saxophone with works of no specified instrumentation that are suited for saxophones and winds. Volume I was described as "...beautifully refined performances of late Cage pieces involving saxophones... and the ensemble playing is remarkable, even telepathic." -The Wire
