Jackson State coach Rick Comegy has a warning for his players: Fall camp will be more difficult than ever.
- Filed Under

Pentagon Comptroller Bob Hale is stepping down after nearly 30 cumulative years of government service, including three years wearing a Navy uniform.
As the Defense Departments top financial official since 2009, Hale has managed the Pentagons annual $600 billion budget and overseen policy, financial management systems and business modernization efforts through some of the stormiest budget years in recent memory.
Hale served as assistant secretary of the Air Force (Financial Management and Comptroller) during the Clinton Administration and headed the national security division at the Congressional Budget Office for 12 years.
The former Navy officer oversaw the Pentagon budget at a time when the department faced sequester reductions, a government shutdown and considerable belt-tightening.
In a statement to Military Times, Hale said he leaves the office with decidedly mixed feelings.
With the help of a large number of outstanding men and women in the comptroller organization, and many others ... we have guided this department through some very turbulent times while also making progress on key initiatives, Hale said.
On Friday, President Obama announced he has selected Michael McCord to replace Hale. McCord has been supporting Hale since 2009 as his principal deputy. He is a longtime Senate Armed Services Committee staffer, serving on Capitol Hill from 1987 to 2004.
Hale said the appointment of McCord brings continuity to the comptroller position.
I am pleased Mike McCord has been nominated by the president ... if confirmed, Mike will bring continuity to the position, and I know he will do a great job, Hale said.
Other nominations announced by the White House include:
■Christine Wormuth to be undersecretary of defense for policy.
■Brian McKeon to be principal deputy undersecretary of defense for policy.
■Miranda Ballentine to be assistant secretary of the Air Force for installations, environment, and logistics.

In Dededo, at the end of a dirt driveway off Ukudo Street, a small tin-and-wood house sits on government land.
This was the home of Gina Medina, a convicted drug kingpin who ran a massive methamphetamine conspiracy for at least four years. Medina and her co-conspirators used this house to distribute drugs that were smuggled from the Philippines, according to federal prosecutors.
During a District Court of Guam hearing on Monday, Medina said the house is on Chamorro Land Trust property. Until Medina said this in court, the Land Trust was unaware the drug ring had operated on its property. ...


text: When the curtain seemingly fell on the national team career of the veteran it left a serious void to fill for Poland, one which realistically, was never going to be plugged. The only person who could replace a legendary figure and a fan favourite such as Kobryn was the player herself. That was exactly what happened as the champagne corks popped across her homeland when she announced a u-turn on her retirement plans and decided to come back for a swansong with the national team. Having played for top clubs on both sides of the Atlantic throughout her career, she is recognised as one of the premier centers in the women's game and is a towering presence for Poland in the paint. A EuroLeague Women and Polish All-Star several times over, she brings experience of several previous Final Round appearances and also playing in the Final Eight and Final Four in EuroLeague Women. She will be the on-court leader for Poland and be expected to top the charts for her country in rebounding and maybe even scoring too. She commands respect inside her own locker room and also in the opposition's camp as well. A giant of Polish and also European women's basketball, and a recognised figure in the WNBA too, she will be one of the biggest names to step out at EuroBasket Women 2015.

Tennessee Titans running back Chris Johnson (28) has 256 rushing yards through three games.
- Filed Under
The record is better by just one game, but in many ways, the Titans seem like a different team compared to a year ago.
The biggest improvements have come on defense, where the Titans have allowed less than half as many points as they had at the same point last season.
Three weeks in, here's a comparison of the 2013 Titans, vs. the 2012 team that ultimately finished 6-10.Three biggest areas of improvement ...

Thanks for this lesson idea. I also teach sophomores and juniors and am always looking for more ways to prepare them for the MME as schools are so focused on the results. I like that the students are making their own graphs and ask to come up with conclusions about the data.One suggestion I would make is to have groups do different sets of data and have each group come up with questions that relate to their graph. One the students share their graphs and data, the other groups can answer the questions. This way all groups are not only practice analzying data, but also answering quetisons on data they are just seeing,Technical Remarks:Reading through this lesson it looks like this would all flow very smoothly with the technology. Another thing you could do in addition to this lesson is to then have students collect data using a temperature or pH probe and practice collecting data using another form of technology.

Great lesson! I really liekd that you started the lesson with questions for the students to answer. This will get them thinking about the material before you present them with the rules. I also thought the questions throughout the lesson were very good and that it was a GREAT idea to have the students pick the rule they used. The only one I thought may be a little confusing for students was 13000000. It is not very common to have a decimal without numbers after it. I understand that this will make two rules correct, but if possible you could make both of those a correct answer.Technical Remarks:The flow of the material was very good, if possible I would recommend a little more annimation in some of the slides so that students are looking at all of the material without skipping straight to the question.

Great lesson! I like that you broke down the three types of acids and gave examples of each. I thought the pace at which you worked through the lesson was good for both students using the tutorial as a review and those who were learning the information for the first time.My only comment about the material is that you may want to mention the other common types of bases, like carbonates and amines, that exist even if you don't use them in class. That way when the students move on in chemistry they are aware that there are more than just hydroxide bases even if they don't know exactly what they are.Technical Remarks:This is more just a preference thing than anything else, but whenever you go to write, you are out of your camera screen shot. This may be what you were trying to but it may be beneficial to zoom out a little on your camera to not distract the students.The only other remark I would make it that when I put in incorrect answers for the quiz questions, as a student just learning about acids/bases, I am not sure I would understand what was incorrect about my answers.

text: Survivors still suffering one year after Concordia disaster Share this story email Share this story «Previous 5 of 6 Photos Next » Read the story « » Italy Ship Aground FILE - In this file photo taken Friday, Jan. 13, 2012, the luxury cruise ship Costa Concordia lays on its starboard side after it ran aground off the coast of the Isola del Giglio island, Italy. As if the nightmares, flashbacks and anxiety weren't enough, passengers who survived the terrifying grounding and capsizing of the Costa Concordia off Tuscany have come in for a rude shock as they mark the first anniversary of the disaster on Sunday, Jan. 13, 2013. Ship owner Costa Crociere SpA, the Italian unit of Miami-based Carnival Corp., sent several passengers a letter telling them they weren't welcome at the official anniversary ceremonies on the island of Giglio where the hulking ship still rests. Costa says the day is focused on the families of the 32 people who died Jan. 13, 2012, not the 4,200 passengers and crew who survived. (AP Photo/Giuseppe Modesti, File)

The obstacles are spread out across a soccer field.
Testing agility by running through a series of tires. Running with the tires. Scaling a picnic table, army crawling around orange cones and later leaping over the cones.
Oh, and ending it all by traversing a soccer goal post and throwing in a few pull-ups.
More extreme fun in Wisconsin: More headlines and photos | Share your photos | Tough Mudder photos | Edge the Ledge photos | Muggy Buggy Xtreme race photos | Warrior Dash photos | Icy plunge photos
Its definitely kicking my butt, Randy Schmiedel said. But I know its all positive.
Each Monday and Wednesday night, Schmiedel and a group of others gather on the soccer fields behind the 20th Avenue YMCA for an hour-long boot camp that aims to prepare them to tackle the obstacles, mud and challenges theyll face during Tough Mudder and other mud obstacle runs.
The class, which began on Aug. 5 and will continue twice weekly for four weeks, uses a mix of cardiovascular exercises, strength training, running and plyometric exercises to train participants for their upcoming events.
We do a lot of running and a lot of obstacle type courses because thats what the mud runs are all about, said Joelle Hamill, one of the YMCA instructors who leads the boot camp.
Many in the class are gearing up for Tough Mudder, a 10- to 12-mile obstacle course designed by British Special Forces that tests a participants strength, stamina, mental grit and camaraderie. The Wisconsin Tough Mudder will be held Sept. 7-8 on the EAA grounds.
Last Wednesday instructor Steve Hurkman lead the group through a P90X-style workout, moves focusing on core work and strength training utilizing body weight. Thrown into the mix was a cardiovascular workout sprinkled with obstacles. Participants ran a circuit around the soccer field and had to make their way through a series of tires, scale a picnic table, hurdle over cones, carry tires and army crawl around a series of cones. The circuit ended by traversing the soccer goal post, with some throwing in a few pull-ups before dropping to the ground and catching their breath.
A lot of people dont understand what some of the larger mud runs entail, said Cheryle Lelinski, a YMCA fitness instructor who helps lead the boot camp. The Tough Mudder is a challenge and I dont think theyre aware of strength they will need for that.
Rex Smith, a retired Marine who has already done two Tough Mudders, said going through the boot camp workouts will definitely help him prepare for the upcoming event, not only physically, but also mentally.
Its a little eye opener, Smith said. A lot of people dont know what to expect. With this group, working with experienced Mudders, I think they have an idea. Hey this is what were going to have to do, and that were going to be tired when were running up to something but weve just got to do it.
First-time Tough Mudder participant Jane Boettcher said she signed up for the September event because its an item on her bucket list, something she wanted to complete before she turns 50.
The YMCA boot camp has been a good fit for her training and has made Boettcher use muscles she never really knew she had.
I like having something to train for, Boettcher said. I look forward to getting muddy.
Schmiedel will also be taking part in his first Tough Mudder in September.
He said the YMCA boot camp has been a phenomenal experience that he believes will prepare him both mentally and physically for what hell face in September.
The one area hes not so sure hell be prepared?
Getting shocked during the events infamous Electroshock Therapy obstacle.
Well manage, he said with a chuckle.
Thats exactly the attitude participants have to have when they toe the starting line at Tough Mudder.
I tell anyone that if you can run three miles, you can do the Mudder, Smith, a veteran Tough Mudder, said. You just have to have a no quit attitude. A lot of the people out here are athletes, pretty good athletes actually, and they dont quit.

Green Bay Packers running back Eddie Lacy walks off the field following the Packers loss Sunday to the 49ers at Lambeau Field. / Kyle Bursaw/Press-Gazette Media
There will be plenty to rue and relive for the Green Bay Packers in the next several months, and their inability to push the San Francisco 49ers to the brink late in the fourth quarter Sunday will be chief among them.
Trailing 20-17 with a first-and-goal at the San Francisco 9-yard line, the Packers gained just 3 yards on their next three plays and were forced to settle for a 24-yard field goal by Mason Crosby.
From there, the 49ers ate up the final 5 minutes, 6 seconds, moved into field goal position and saw Phil Dawson kick a 33-yard game-winning field goal as time expired to give San Francisco a 23-20 victory in an NFC wild-card playoff game at a frosty Lambeau Field.
A portion of the Packers final drive featured the running of their 230-pound rookie tailback Eddie Lacy, who bulldozed his way for runs of 5 and 8 yards against a 49ers defense that was starting to give ground.
Its definitely a key point. We wanted to try and tire them out, said Lacy, who finished with 81 yards on 21 carries. Theyre great on defense. We definitely wanted to pound the ball and try and get them as tired as possible.
And the plan appeared to be working from Lacys viewpoint.
Towards the end of the game, you could see that a lot, Lacy said. We were able to make a lot of runs and break a lot of tackles.
But after a 25-yard pass to Randall Cobb put the ball at the 49ers 9, the Packers called a timeout and on first down left Lacy on the sideline. Coach Mike McCarthy had Cobb line up in the backfield, gave him the ball and ran him behind left tackle Marshall Newhouse. Cobb was quickly vanquished by linebacker NaVorro Bowman, who took him down after just a 1-yard gain.
I had my guy and was trying to get him upfield, and I feel I accomplished that, Newhouse said. The point was for Cobb to run up under that and I think he got up under. I didnt see what happened the rest of the play.
As for Lacy, he stood on the sideline and watched.
Im not surprised, he said. I believe in the coach. Whatever call he makes, Im satisfied with it whether its giving me the ball or some other teammate. Were a team here; no matter what he calls, were behind him 100 percent.
So me not getting the ball in that situation is not something Im going to sit back and be like Oh, we should have did this or should have did that. Im behind coach 100 percent in everything he decides to do.
Newhouse, too, said he was not surprised the Packers didnt stick with their power game.
No, we have so many guys that can score at any time, theres no surprise, he said.
Lacy remained on the sideline on second down when Rodgers rolled right but found no one open and had to throw it away. On third down, again Rodgers couldnt find an open receiver, the protection broke down and he scrambled for a 2-yard gain.
So instead of taking the lead and putting the onus on the 49ers, the Packers were forced to settle for a tie.
The red-zone series, the ability to attack the end zone. Kicking field goals down there obviously factored, too, McCarthy said. We knew we had to score more than 20 points today, and I didnt get that done.
On that critical possession, it was the 49ers defense that got things done when it mattered most.
I think it says a lot about our defense in how we can step up and make plays when its time, said 49ers linebacker Aldon Smith. We just stayed consistent and didnt panic. A lot of teams dont know what to do when someone starts to drive on them, and they mess up. We didnt hit the panic button, and that had something to do with why we came out with a win.

Does anyone other than me find the chiller chanel lame. I know it's new and all but it is owned by universal who owns all the true classic films yet the choose to run Friday the 13th the series etc. Any thoughts?
I don't have the Chiller channel where I live. I only get the Sci-fi channel. Is it any better than the Scifi channel?
RIP's Website
Love the new quote line, Ripper.
Um - Chiller is less cheesy than Sci-Fi. I do agree, though, zombie, that it is a little disappointing how often they run the series's. Some of the movies they show aren't too bad, like the Hunger - and I liked the ---uh--- what was it called --- Blackwater Valley Exorcism (?)
Also, not sure if you know this, but their late nite viewing is great with all the old monster flicks.
I don't find the channel lame one bit. You should be happy and pleased enough that DirecTV offered us horror movie fans a channel of some sort. Yeah the movies are half good and half bad. But the TV shows is what makes the channel so great.
Who wants a drink?
I already had a few not to long ago.
Yeah I should be greatful to be watching a hand full of really out dated series. I loved Tales from the crypt when it was fresh but, come on Friday the 13th the series,Freedy's nightmares,werewolf.These series died in the 80's and as far as I'm concerned they should have remained burried.Shows like Twin Peaks etc are only good if you see them in order.I stick to my original stance LAME!!!!
So Z if you had control what would your ideal lineup be?Chiller is of course not available for cable, as far as I know there isn't any kind of horror channel available for cable, so I can't judge. I do get sci/fi but it is a bitter disapointment.The above shows you mentioned I have never seen, except for F13th.I would be happy for lame instead of nothing at all.
And see the one show that you can't catch anywhere that has always been my favorite is and always will be Tales From the Crypt, which they show everyday. Among other great shows and some of the times, some great or decent movies. Now if there was one thing i would change about Chiller is the commercials. Yeah i know that they don't last as long as other commercials from other channels, but still.
Here comes the Rain...I love the Rain.... The Cult rules!
THey show the same episodes of Brimstone over and over (love the show...don't want to see the exact ones 5 times a week---same for Twin Peaks)...def a good channel, I usually hit it on the guide first thing to see what on...Isn't there a MONSTERFEST channel...anyone have that? I'm dying for an unedited HBO-like horror channel...maybe if we all start sending emails to our providers...hell it worked on the tennis channel...tennis all the time.

That's what DirecTV needs. A 24/7 commercial-unedited horror movie channel. Like add to it the line-up to our massive amount of movie channels. Hell we already have i think 5 HBO channels as it is. Why do they need 2 HBO family channels.
Beats me...I have two kids and we NEVER watch one thing on the HBO Fams
But shit. They should add a 24/7 horror movie channel. Add it to the Starz package. They already pretty much have every genre to it. Hey i got an idea. Replace the Western channel with a Horror movie channel.
I like the western channel but that would be great to add that to that lineup...I have about 8 email addresses...I'm gonna cut n paste a request for it and send it to DTV from each one every day.
I really think Direct Tv should either pick up or do there own version of Monster TV which is on disn network........I mean don't get me wrong I love chiller tv.......love the shows my fav being Tales from the Crypt and Night Gallery..........but I'd love to have a movie chanel......uncut, movie channel.............Monsters lineup is great.....and while I love Chiller i really wish direct tv would pick up a movie channel too
Classics never die...come on...they paved the way for these updated horror films your so concerned of watching... i dont have this channel but it sounds like something id defiently watch...curious, if u feel this channel is so lame, it sounds like u repeatedly watch it right?
DarkSunrise's Website
I'm not sayins it is all bad there are a couple of films there I havn't seen in a while but,I reiterate the company who owns chiller is universal they own all the great classics the only one I have ever seen on it was "the creature from the black lagoon" and it was on at 2am. I also agree with the idea of a pay channel for horror I'd pony up the$$ to get it.
Yea, and I sent them an email about that...begging for some classics this Halloween instead of Halloween 4 n 5 over n over...they did show an Invisible Man marathon of 4 movies...but it started at 6am on a Sunday.
As far as Freddy's Nightmares goes, it may be outdated and not seem as good as it did when it first aired, but I don't feel that it should be taken off the network. Such shows are rare finds that many horror fans have never had the chance to see, and to show them on television again provides that opportunity.

DOVER - Delaware State Police are investigating Republican state Senate candidate Eric Bodenweiser, the Georgetown nominee who received the endorsement of former tea party candidate Christine O'Donnell two weeks ago.
The focus of the criminal investigation remains unclear, according to those questioned by state police, including Bodenweiser's brother. But some Sussex County Republican leaders say they are concerned that Bodenweiser has skipped out on campaign events after hosting a high-profile fundraiser that featured an appearance by O'Donnell, the 2010 GOP Senate ...

Hi there,
When editing a Ruby (*.rb) file, Goto Symbol (CTRL+R) says "No Symbols" yet, in my JavaScript files, the same thing results in a quick panel containing all the functions in the current file.
I guess I'm wondering if it's a bug/not yet implemented feature that Ruby shows nothing, or if I am expected to build a list/write a snippet to do it? FWIW, my Ruby file contains just one class, consisting of a few procedures.

With the average age of European Union (EU) nuclear
plants now at around 30 years, bringing enough new capacity online
to match that lost through the closure of old nuclear plants will
present a major challenge, writes Stephen Tarlton.
Currently, 131 nuclear power reactors with a combined capacity
of around 122 GWe operate in 14 EU member states. This accounts for
over one-quarter of the electricity generated across all of the
EU's 28 member states. Half of the EU's nuclear electricity is
produced in only one country, namely France.
But with the French government planning to cap nuclear capacity
at its current level of around 63 GWe, along with the
politically-motivated decisions by two member states (Germany and
Belgium) to exit nuclear power over the next decade, a decline in
EU capacity up to around 2030 is all but inevitable.
In order to reverse this expected short-term decline, the new
generation of nuclear reactor designs needs to be firmly
established in the EU. Today, nuclear plant construction is
underway in only three EU member states - Finland, France and
Slovakia (although the reactors under construction in Slovakia are
Russian VVER-440 units, a design that is unlikely to be built
again). Beyond these units, the countries that are most likely to
have additional new nuclear units in operation by 2030 are Finland,
Hungary, Lithuania and the United Kingdom. Though less likely,
further new units by 2030 might also be seen in Bulgaria, Czech
Republic, Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia and
According to a new report titled New Nuclear in Europe - 2030
Outlook by the World Nuclear Association (WNA), the outcome of the
nuclear projects in these 13 countries - but especially the two
EPRs currently under construction in Finland and France, along with
the planned new reactors in Finland, Hungary, Lithuania and the
United Kingdom - will determine whether the expected short-term
decline in the EU's nuclear industry will be reversed.

A fascinating brochure has been published outlining the story of the Onagawa nuclear power plant and how it withstood the earthquake and tsunami of March 11, 2011. It is available here.
The report reviews the differences between what happened at Fukushima Daiichi, Fukushima Daini and Onagawa.
Onagawa faced a stronger earthquake and tsunami of similar height to Fukushima Daiichi, at around 13m. The earthquake disrupted external power supplies, but with a combination of one remaining external power line and six of the eight diesel generators the plants shut down and cooling systems started as planned - in fact Unit 2 was in the process of starting up as the earthquake struck and reached cold shutdown a few minutes later.
When the tsunami struck the damage caused to Onagawa was much less severe than at Fukushima Daiichi and Daini, because the Onagawa plant had been built at a height of 14.8m, higher than the tsunami waves. There was some disruption to unit 2 cooling, but all reactors achieved cold shutdown as planned.
The preparedness and efforts of staff at Onagawa were recognised when they were presented with a WANO (World Association of Nuclear Excellence) Award for Nuclear Excellence.
Onagawa staff whose combined efforts earned them a WANO Nuclear Excellence Award
Perhaps even more remarkable is how the Onagawa nuclear plant became a place of refuge for people from the area surrounding the plant, where many had died, and even more had been made homeless.
On March 11, 1,500 people working at the site were stranded, without any reports how their friends and family outside the plant had fared. From the devastated surrounding area 50 people sought shelter at the plant. Eventually the site would become a refuge for 364 people from the local community.
Local refugees offered shelter in Onagawa gymnasium
The article shows how robust nuclear power plants are when back up power supplies and flood defences are properly in place. Since the accident at Fukushima 'stress tests' have been carried out at reactors around the world to ensure that plants are sufficiently prepared. Even at Onagawa defences have been strengthened even more.
WNA has published a new report reviewing over twenty studies of greenhouse gas emissions from electricity generation. The report concludes that the third party studies clearly show that greenhouse gas emissions from all forms of fossil fuel generation are an order of magnitude higher than those from nuclear energy and renewables.
Although there are variations between studies of the emissions associated with different forms of generation, by taking a mean value the following conclusions can be made:
The studies chosen used a range of assumptions, however they all took the approach of studying the full lifecycle emissions from all the generation types, not only those emissions directly associated with generation.
The WNA report also looks at differences between the conclusions of studies carried out by academia, government and industry. Although there were some variations, particularly in estimates of emissions from natural gas, overall there is a high degree of agreement between these three groups.
The full report can be download from the WNA website (Publications/WNA Reports) or by clicking WNA Greenhouse Gas Emissions Report.
WNA has published two new reports, available commercially on the WNA public site and available to WNA member companies on the WNA Members website.

Although I haven't bought a scotch in some 2 years, a good client just did a trade with me, so I recieved a bottle of Bruichladdich 15yr.
I chose this bottling because it's from 80-85% first fill bourbon casks (OK, barrels, but once they're taken apart and put back together, they're casks). In any event it was really neat to nose and taste the bourbon in this product, which I have been unable to detect in other scotches aged with that much "first fill" bourbon wood.
Anybody have a similar experience with any other scotch brands?

A full page ad in the Miami Herald touting the support by some major area hotels for Sun Life Stadium improvements -- using bed tax dollars -- appears to be misleading.
The ad quotes executives from the InterContinental in downtown Miami and the JW Marriott Marquis, who say they support the stadium improvements even if it means adding one percent to guests' bills. The one percent tax increase, which would have to be approved by the Miami-Dade Commission once enabling legislation is passed by the Legislature, would come from hiking the Professional Sports Franchise tax. Currently, hotel guests in Miami-Dade pay a six percent bed tax.
What the Herald ad doesn't say is that hotels on Miami Beach already make guests pay seven percent. Hotels in Surfside and Bal Harbour have their own tax schedule.
Dolphins CEO Mike Dee spoke a county commission meeting Wednesday. He made a point of saying several hotels support the Sun Life improvements and the bed tax hike. Several hotel executives were in the audience, but didn't speak.
Norman Braman, who led the fight against the Marlins Stadium deal three years ago, is an outspoken opponent of using bed tax money to "modernize" Sun Life. When asked him about the Herald ad and support from hoteliers, Braman said: "This is just more of the same. They've rounded up the usual suspects. They all supported the Marlins Stadium deal."

The Baltimore Orioles have accomplished what I believe to be their main objective this offseason. They turned over a good portion of the forty man roster. In addition, they extended invitations to numerous non-roster players including the free agents that they just signed to minor league contracts. Among those invitees, I'm sure, will come other roster additions and deletions. In all fairness, I'm not too sure that the O's are any better than at this time last year. But I do know that by the sheer numbers alone, especially at the pitcher position, that the possibilities of success is at the very least, marginally improved.
The 2008 version of the Orioles 40-man roster included 24 pitchers. Eleven of them (45.8%) are no longer on the 40-man roster. The following (with one exception) are no longer part of the O's organization at all. Greg Aquino (Indians), Randor Bierd (Red Sox), Chad Bradford (Rays), Brian Burres (Blue Jays), Daniel Cabrera (Nationals), Fernando Cabrera (Red Sox), Rocky Cherry (Mets), Fredy Deza (Orioles), Jon Leicester (Japan), Adam Loewen (Blue Jays), and Garrett Olson (Mariners).
The 2008 version of the Orioles 40-man roster included 16 non-pitchers. Eight of them (50.0%) are no longer on the 40-man roster. The following (with two exceptions) are no longer part of the O's organization. Ramon Hernandez (Reds), Guillermo Quiroz (Orioles), Brandon Fahey (Blue Jays), Luis A. Hernandez (Royals), Freddie Bynum (Nationals). Jay Gibbons (Brewers), Jay Payton (Unsigned) and Tike Redman (Orioles).
So, in total, 19 players (11 pitchers and 8 non-pitchers) from last year's 40-man roster are no longer on that roster (47.5%), and 16 of them (40.0%) are no longer with the Orioles at all. But what does it all mean? Is it like a game of poker, where you discard 4 cards and keep your ace in hopes of getting lucky by starting over? Are the pure pitching numbers just masking an unpleasant truth? Well, I think it's both. It creates a smokescreen to hide the lack of talent at the upper level currently, but also enhances the chances of finding the next diamond in the rough. And then, of course, O's fans know that whoever pitches now is only keeping the mound warm for the future young guns who are rapidly approaching prime time. Oh yes, those youngsters. The talented crop that includes first round pick Brian Matusz, Jake Arrieta and Chris Tillman. But another pitcher or two may actually steal the limelight. Bradley Bergesen, the O's minor league pitcher of the year, may be ready for the jump to the major league. His teammate, David Hernandez, had an equally good 2008 season and may also transcend into a quality big league pitcher. So, believe it or not, the next generation of Orioles starters (with just Chris Tillman being an exception), may actually be products of the farm system. Matusz, Arrieta, Tillman, Bergesen and Hernandez along with holdover Jeremy Guthrie and Troy Patton, should give Baltimore a solid rotation for the next dozen years.
But what about the future of the everyday players? The Orioles have the best catching prospect in baseball, Matt Wieters, who is expected to make his pro debut sometime this season. Whether his future is behind the plate or at 1B, Wieters' contract will be controlled by the O's through 2015. Outfielders Adam Jones and Felix Pie are controlled through 2013 and Nick Markakis is also signed through 2014. The three outfield positions and catcher appear set for the long term. The infield, however, is a different story. Aubrey Huff, Brian Roberts, Melvin Mora and Ryan P. Freel have expiring contracts after this season. Cesar Izturis, Gregg Zaun and Ty Wiggington were signed for just two years and those contracts expire iafter the 2010 season. Luke Scott has only two more arbitration years before he is eligible for free agency as well. That leaves a lot of holes to fill over the next season or so. The Orioles do have some prospects in the minor leagues, but none are taking the fast road at this point. The only catching prospect, Caleb Joseph, is at least 3 years away, and 1B is weakly represented by Brandon Snyder, Joe Mahoney and Elvin Polanco. The 2B prospects do offer some hope with ex-Reds Justin Turner leading the way. Others include Jerome Hoes and Ryan Adams. At 3B, there are very powerful but only average at best options in Scott Moore, Mike Costanzo and Brandon Waring. The real hope may lie in Tyler Henson or super prospect, 20 year old Billy Rowell. At SS, Blake Davis is below average to date and Greg Miclat is at least three or four years away.
The Orioles will need to determine this season if there is any infield help in the minor leagues. Once the assessment is clear, the club will need to find players via free agency or trades. If the organization wants to take advantage of the tremendous young arms they possess, then fielding a team that can support those arms with both their bats and gloves is imperative. Andy MacPhail has accomplished that already in the outfield. The O's will be able to boast having the fastest outfield in baseball and arguably the best defensive outfield with all three owning cannon arms and gold glove ability. Now it's time to shape the infield as well. With Wieters at catcher, the O's are off to a good start.

DALLAS — Russia certainly has the capability to invade eastern Ukraine, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff said Saturday, but added that he hasnt determined yet whether the nations intent is to do so.
U.S. Gen. Martin E. Dempsey told The Associated Press after a military symposium in Dallas that he found it unsettling that Russia would amass forces along the Ukrainian border and deploy Russian aircraft into Ukrainian airspace to influence its May 25 presidential election.
They are clearly trying to pressure the upcoming elections, and whatever transitional government might form, using military force, he said.
Dempsey had grave concern over Russias aggressive behavior, according to an earlier statement issued by the Pentagon.
A German-led group of military observers traveling under the auspices of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe remained in captivity Saturday, accused of being NATO spies by a pro-Russian insurgency.
Dempsey said he told his Russian counterpart, Gen. Valery V. Gerasimov, in a telephone conversation last week that the observers could help stabilize the situation in Ukraine.
Weve got observers from the OSCE, some of whom have been denied access by pro-Russian groups, and I suggested to him that one way we could contribute to some kind of stable outcome would be if he on his side and me on my side could seek to get those observers in there so that we could have a neutral party tell us whats going on, he said.
Dempsey refuted Gerasimovs reported assertion by Russias Interfax news agency that Ukraine has mobilized a significant number of troops on the Ukrainian side of the border with Russia.
Thats not at all what our reports indicate is unfolding in Ukraine, he said.
Nevertheless, outside Slovyansk, a city about 150 kilometers (90 miles) west of Russia, Ukraine government forces continued operations to form a security cordon as it attempts to quell unrest threatening to derail the planned May election.
The West has threatened additional sanctions against Russia over its annexation of Crimea from Ukraine in March and the ongoing escalation of military operations along the border.

Before giving my perspective on all this I want to direct you to several places where others have helpfully or humorously (which, these days is also very helpful!) commented on the debate. For a very accurate rendition of the facts of the case, read James White's explanations found here. Timmy Brister also has a helpful review of the events, including many helpful links including one to this hilarious "pre-debate video" put together by Josh Chavers . Timmy also put together some comments by some Liberty students.
Those who have been reading this blog for the last 8 months, or who have been industrious enough to do a little research, will know that the genesis of the debate is found in various comments that Ergun and Emir Caner left on a post I wrote about Johnny Hunt's announced candidacy for the SBC presidency. They were offended by remarks made by some commenters who disparaged Hunt and others, and took it upon themselves to respond with inflammatory and bombastic accusations. In the mix of all of the responses, a challenge to debate was issued by James White to Ergun Caner to debate issues surrounding the doctrines of grace. That exchange that this challenge provoked ultimately was taken off the blog and into email exchanges. After a few weeks, Ergun agreed to a debate with the stipulation that he be joined by Emir and James be joined by someone, preferably a Southern Baptist. James asked me to participate and I accepted.
After several more weeks of attempting to get details of the debate (thesis, length, date, etc.) arranged, things once again grew so heated that at the end of June I bowed out, unwilling to participate in the kind of mudfest that seemed to be shaping up. James agreed to plan on debating both brothers by himself. Ergun agreed, and that is how things remained for several more weeks. On July 13, in what was surely a remarkable providence, I was in the middle of composing a private email to Ergun when I received one from him. His was about a writing project and was very gracious in tone. My email was an effort to promote understanding and to express real sorrow over the way things had degenerated regarding the debate. I had absolutely no interest in being involved in the debate at that time. My interest was primarily to repent over my sin in some statements made and to ask for forgiveness.
This led to a phone conversations between Ergun and me on July 18. We profitably discussed many issues, including the debate. He indicated that he and Emir genuinely wanted me to participate and that they sincerely were looking forward to it. A few days later he emailed James and asked if Emir could contact me to discuss my participation in the debate. James agreed, Emir contacted me and we spoke by phone on July 26. He asked what would be necessary for me to get back into the debate. I said we would need to negotiate 3 things: length, format, and thesis. After much discussion we agreed to the following:
- Length: 3 hours of actual debate
- Format: modified parliamentary (only one interrupting question per speech, and that limited to 15 seconds; and ample cross examination)
- Topic: Baptists and Calvinism: an Open Debate
This agreement was left undiscussed until September 13, when I sent another email to all four participants.
to be continued tomorrow

Since he arrived at Florida State as the Seminoles' offensive coordinator in 2007, Jimbo Fisher has preached one constant message when opponents try to blitz his quarterbacks:
Make them pay.
By training his quarterbacks and wide receivers to make "sight adjustments" at the line of scrimmage, and ensuring that his running backs help the offensive line handle the extra pass-rushers, Fisher believes every blitz is a chance for a big play. ...

It is getting difficult to even watch the GSW lately. It reminds me of the previous losing GSW teams. They just seem to cave in. Their defense is also like the previous teams: "Hope the Other Guys Miss!"
Their rebounding philosophy is "Hope the Ball Bounces to Me!"
I mean, think about it. When is the last time you can remember everybody screening out their man and our big men CRASHING the boards? What's up with the coaching staff? Every good college team in the country knows how to screen out. Any good high school team does, too.
I don't like to be overly critical, but these guys are getting paid millions to just play basketball. Can't we at least require that they demonstrate good basic skills?
Every team in the NBA has the GSW figured out. Go inside. You will either score or will draw a foul. Don't worry, all the perimeter players will let you go inside.
Why do you think every opponent is scoring so much in the paint and getting so many second chance points? Just a coincidence? They have discovered the GSW weakness and they will ruthlessly exploit it, as they should, until the coaching staff does something about it.
I think Adonyl should be moved to third in the center rotation. He can barely make a lay-up or a three foot hook shot! Everybody cheers when he makes a basket, like he is a high school JV player! Start Andris and bring in Zarko as a back-up. Get on the phones, Mully.
Question: Would Adonyl even make the team in a top collegiate program?
I'm sorry to say I don't think Mike D. is going to make it to the next level. I have been patient and supportive, but I have to agree that he is becoming a liability. He's too sensitive for pro basketball. He gets upset or moody or depressed way too easily and then he shuts down. When is Air France returning?
I have been a GSW fan since the Rick Barry days in the old Cow Palace. But lately I find it difficult to even watch. Maybe the players are a little too secure. They need to understand that they are getting paid MILLIONS to play good basketball. If they don't produce, they ride the pine or get traded. That's the NBA.
I keep hearing about the "good chemistry" the GSW have. I really don't see it. They don't play in rhythm. They play moody and tense. Look at how the Nets blew them out. The Nets were having fun. The new Lakers, under one of the greatest coaches in history, play loose and relaxed.
Note to Baron: I see you hustling. Keep it in control. I know you are hating this slide, but when a good player tries to take it all on himself, injuries can happen. Play within yourself. We need you healthy.
It might be time for a little talk from Mully to the players AND the coaches. Kick it up a notch, NOW, or I may have to do an Isiah Thomas and shake things up a little around here.
Here's how I see it:
Solid Starters:
2 - JRich
3 - ???
4 - Troy
5 - ???
Solid Bench:
1 - Fish
2 - Calbert
3 - Air France
4 - Ike - Zarko
5 - Andris
Mully's Crew - Can We Work Something Out?:
Mike D.
It's difficult to keep winning without a solid defense.
P.S. I think Bob Fitzgerald is cool. Jim and Bob are the best announcers I've heard in any sport. Just compare them to the announcers when ESPN shows a GSW game. I feel sorry for Jim and Bob sometimes, however. It must be pretty hard to remain positive during some of the games lately. In my book, they're GREEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTT!

Howard Bell / Nathan Papes/News-Leader
On Good Friday a beautiful spring day for baseball Howard Bells fight with Lou Gehrigs disease came to an end.
The former Glendale High School baseball coach passed away Friday morning at his home in south Springfield after a battle with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. He was 48.
Bell was diagnosed with the disease, which is named after the iconic former New York Yankees slugger, in December 2011.
In many ways, Bell was a Springfield baseball icon, starring as a player at Parkview High School and then for Southwest Missouri State in college. He spent years coaching summer baseball before becoming an assistant at Glendale alongside current Drury baseball coach Mark Stratton.
Bell took over the Glendale program in 2006, and won four Ozark Conference titles in seven seasons. He coached last spring, although his health prevented him from attending many games.
A health teacher who taught mostly freshmen at Glendale, Bell was beloved around school, with a knack for finding students who were in need of a little extra whether it was the kindness of someone who cared, or even a little extra cash.
He knew everyones name, whether it was the best athlete in the school or someone who ate lunch by himself, said Connor Doran, a 2012 Glendale graduate who played for Bell and now attends the University of Kansas. And what stood out about him as a coach was just the way that he cared about his players. He cared more about them as people and them growing into men.
Longtime friend Mike Snodgrass, who took over as coach this spring, heard the news before school started Friday morning. School officials called the players into the auditorium to deliver the news. Senior players shared lessons shared by Bell, reaffirming that Bell cared mostly about their development as people.
Then, the players had to decide whether to play Fridays scheduled game at Nixa.
We told them, We dont have to play today. What do you want to do? Snodgrass said. They all thought that coach Bell wouldve wanted them to play.
The Glendale players wrote HB on their hats in Bells honor. The parents also showed their support and remembrance.
Joan Cologna, a family friend whose daughter is close with Bells youngest daughter, Kameron, and whose son is a senior on the team, bought black ribbons for parents to wear.
During Fridays game, she remembered Bells final games, which were played at Nixa during districts. The team made an inspired run, including a 12-inning upset of Branson in the semifinal.
He had his cane there, and he came out and said, Lets get this game over with boys. Im hungry. And he hit his cane on the ground, Cologna said. He loved the kids at Glendale, he loved the students he had. He was always looking for that lost soul, the kids who didnt have a chance.
Bells fight and positivity continued until the end. Bedridden for a couple of weeks already, Bell told Snodgrass on Sunday that he intended to throw out the first pitch at Thursdays game against Lake Zurich, Ill.
Snodgrass said he left the house convinced Bell would be there on Thursday.
Bell was not able to; his daughter Kameron did instead. The game was dedicated to Bell and was another in a long line of celebrations dedicated to the coach.
Thus, Snodgrass was surprised about the news of his friends passing on Friday.
Crisis counselors were brought in by the school district to Glendale to help students grieve over Bell, known as Dinger by friends.
Dinger carved out a great baseball career, and met his future wife while he was a baseball star at Parkview and Kim was a student at Kickapoo.
Later as a shortstop for the Bears, Bell was named Mid-Continent Conference Player of the Year in 1986 for coach Keith Guttins Bears.
His legacy will go on through the people he knew, through all the people he coached at Glendale, Guttin said Friday after coaching Missouri State to a win against Indiana State. Obviously he was a great player here and he was a good friend.
Its a horrible situation, but Howards going to live on through a lot of other people.
The Bells have two adult daughters, Keshia and Kameron.
When he became sick, Bell gravitated toward the things he loved: family, friends and baseball, said Paul Blackwell, the regional development director of the ALS Associations local Keith Worthington Chapter.
Blackwell said Bells popularity in the community helped raise ALS awareness. During the groups annual walk in September, Bells group raised about $38,000, pushing the total amount well over the record goal of $90,000, Blackwell said.
It wasnt only his popularity, though, but the way he approached the sickness that inspired.
Much like Gehrig in his famous Luckiest man on the face of the Earth speech, Bells positivity bucked a trend of typical ALS patients who become reclusive when sick, Blackwell said.
He had realized that he had lived a great life, and was thankful, Blackwell said. He was always upbeat, and thats very unusual. That speaks well of his character and the type of person he was.
For our association, it was a huge, huge plus to have a gentleman like him raising awareness for the cause.
Added Doran, referring to the Help Coach Bell Strike Out ALS slogan used during his fight: He definitely struck out ALS. The disease took his life, but it didnt take his heart, or change the person who he was.
Services for Bell are 2:30 p.m. Monday at Ridgecrest Baptist Church at 2210 W Republic Road.

AKRON -- Ferris Kleem took the witness stand Wednesday morning and testified to providing thousands and thousands of dollars worth of meals and other items for Jimmy Dimora.
Kleem, who already pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit bribery, said he became friends with Dimora when he was mayor of Bedford Heights and was first running for Cuyahoga County Commissioner.
Among other instances, Kleem said he gave Dimora a 50-inch flat screen TV, a refrigerator, $2,000 in cash towards a Rolex watch and always contributed to the county Democratic Party and its candidates.
Kleem said he gave the owner of Sheiban jewelers $2,000 in cash to augment the cost of the Submariner Rolex watch which was already discounted 25 percent.
Then Kleem added, "I have given him cash" as well at other times. Kleem said he also paid for all the meals he ever had with Dimora and even paid for the meals of friends Dimora brought with him.
For example, Kleem said he was at a fundraiser for Frank Russo with Dimora in the Flats once and whispered to the two men that he would like them to join him for dinner at the restaurant down the street called Majorca.
Kleem said that when Russo and Dimora arrived at Majorca for dinner with Kleem, "they brought 14 to 20 people with them...and the bill was $4,000...and I paid the (entire) bill..."
Kleem said he was born in Lebanon and came to the United States in 1976 with his brother Tony and "...we each had $50 in our pockets..."
Kleem said he paid for meals for Dimora and Dimora's friends about 3 or 4 times a year.
Kleem said he gave Dimora cash and gifts "...because I didn't want to fall out of favor (with Dimora)...."
He said he did what he did for Dimora and whatever Dimora wanted because "I wanted to gain influence in Cuyahoga County and help my businesses."
