Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
As I mentioned in the last thread, I think theocorp is handling this really well. He was never much of a hitter, in my mind, but Soriano does seem like a class guy, very nice and all.
Letting him go through "injury", which I am assuming is happening, is good stuff.
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
Sveum is also starting to impress me. I think he might actually mean it when he says results count. It is tough to stay on that philosophy when about 5 of your starters are Triple AAA caliber. But he is doing stuff I'd expect some of you guys to do.
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
Okay, one more thing. The Cubs are actually looking like a good team. They may suck on many levels, but coaching is huge - in my opinion - and they are a team that I am now trying to watch, rather than avoid.
We have a triple A team competing with the rest of the league. May not last, but it may.

Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
*bangs head on the desk* Wonder how many runs vs outs Castro's aggressive base running has given us.
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
So what happened there? Gameday just said Castro out at home.
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
Malholm down to a 1.08 WHIP btw. He's been giving up too many HRs but overall he's been pitching better than his ERA. This is in opposition to James Russel who with a 1.32 WHIP is just begging for an ERA spike soon.
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
Not as awesome as me. I picked up LaHair during an off-season waivers period, then didn't hang on to him as a keeper prior to the draft.
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
but you still have danks in your other league right?
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
You should have dropped them both? :)
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
lahero strikes again...rbi single hit into the hole of the shift.
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
LaHair, he of the "I can hit everything they throw at me" Lahair?
You guys are a bunch of nuts
The baseball knowledge is unique.
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
is there a reason why s.maine is in AAA being their best reliever rather than in the bigs being the cubs best reliever? he's only getting out both lefties and righties...with control...
also, do lendy castillo and mike bowden exist?
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
Wood will probably go on DL after hurting his arm throwing his glove.
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
that was boring, yet good...cubs win.
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
The only question left is whether this Cubs team is the best team in 2012, or best team ever?
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
Things certainly have changed for the better haven't they.
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
best-est Cubs team ever?

Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
Interesting stat, but a lot of that has to do with timing. This team started bad.
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
Last time Cubs won a game 1-0: Aug. 3, 2011, @ PIT (W Garza, S Marmol).
This team is a Top-60 reliever away from being a .500 club. Considering what we thought we had, and also who's contributing nothing, that's saying a lot.
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
This team definitely has issues. Castro and LaHair will realistically both most likely see their stats drop a bit, as will Campana and Dempster. Yet on the other hand, I can also see Soto, Soriano and Stewart batting wise and Malholm and Volstad pitching wise seeing #s get better. We got a team right now pretty out of wack with player career #s both positive and negative, so will be interesting to see which way it goes.
Overall though if Rizzo shows an ability to cut down on strike outs and Castro learns to run the bases better it will be a pretty epic middle of the lineup we have with some excellent top of the rotation pitching.
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
Castro and LaHair are both stars. The rest I just am waiting for the fall. But Sveum is pretty good to be able to get this crew to be competitive. His not your mother's Qball.
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
Fredi Gonzalez has some Qball in him ...
"Huddy was outstanding. So much that if he would have come out of the seventh inning with no runs, I was thinking about letting him hit in the eighth, because he was that dominant." ... "We swung the bats well. Even though we didn't score any runs today, I can't complain about our offense. They did a nice job defending us… It seems like we should have won two out of three, especially with Huddy's performance today."
On yesterday's win: "Good team effort. Danny battled to get that two-run single and get us over the top." ... "Freeman's going to go home 0-for-3, 0-for-4, and he hit three balls right on the nose. You can't do anything about that. I thought we all had good at-bats against him. He just kept us off-balance. The old guy – I'm calling Dempster the old guy – he reached back one time and punched out Bourney with 93 [mph]. I think he pitched the whole night at about 88, 89."
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
Except imo Malhom and Volstad will both get better, as will Wood and Marmol. That doesn't mean they are great pitchers (though I think Malhom has actually been pitching well) but that thing Ryno was talking about with reverting to the mean applies here. They are pitching much worse than career #s and that's just as likely to revert back to a better mean as the good will be to revert back to a worse mean.
/edit not to mention take a look at the career #s of Soto, Soriano and Ian Stewart. Both are way underperforming those #s. If we're going to make the claim our good starting pitching will come back down a bit (which is a realistic point) you also need to accept that way underperforming players will most likely move back to their career mean unless you have nagging injuries. Soriano maybe might see an age drop off, but I just don't see it being this drastic. None of those players most likely will ever be part of a future team, but if we can see an uptick in performance from them and our back 2 pitchers, it will help mask a drop off in performance for our overperforming players.
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
You think Maholm will get better? He better start clearing off space on a shelf for his Cy Young award.
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
He's overall pitching well and has a 1.080 WHIP but is giving up too many HRs and I do think he can bring that ERA down a bit. I don't think he's a star or anything but he seems to be a pretty good #4th pitcher.
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
Which is why I would like to see them make a 4-5 yr commitment to Garza, land a proven #2/#3 starter in the FA market (e.g. Hamels), and hope this Samardzija is the real deal. Having those three plus a Maholm is a good starting point. Would also like to see the obvious trade deadline dumps (Soto, Dempster, Baker) bring back some effective bullpen help for 2012-2013.
The offense (right now) is obviously going to be built around Castro, Rizzo, BJax, Castillo/Clevenger, and LaHair (for as long he continues to hit). Not sure what Theo's plan is for the offense (FA, trades, or wait for the farm system).
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
Cubs at Brewers: Battling to get OUT of last place...
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
This team definitely has issues.
Thank you Capt. Obvious :)
Campana is a bunting hit machine. There is no stopping him!
Last night the Braves corners were pulled in guarding against his bunting "magic." The little dude "crushed" a singe to left!
He actually does fuck up pitchers a bit. Its just, he has to have enough OBP accumen to make it worthwhile.
Overall, I am impressed with our starting pitching. I am unimpressed with the two costly bullpen veterans, who have cost the team 5 wins or more.
This team is looking like the 2010 Padres East! (except no "good" Heath Bell, or A. Gonzo)
It would be a hoot if the team can start sniffing .500 again.
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
did today's game come with a crack cocaine and antidepressant smoothie or something?
there's a bit of glow coming off this game for some reason. 13 wins, 5 away from .500...still crap hitting...still iffy pen. stewart's recent (odd) misplays aside the D is a bit tighter lately.
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
Just "boring, but good Cubs win."
Nothing more...
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
here and twitter are blowing up with hope. it's just an odd-ish coincidence after a pretty quick/uneventful game. not trying to poop in anyone's sandbox.
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
not trying to poop in anyone's sandbox.
Dude, that is gross. Stop doing that!
I am liking the the starting pitching, actually. At least lately. Except for the "Big Funk" Volsted.
I'd like to see them sign Garza. We are going to have to wait until July to find out if its gonna happen.
Re: Game 31 Thread - Maholm vs. Hudson
Ouch. On the other hand, why would you let Matt Bush borrow your truck?
Recent comments
Chapman shouldn't be reserved anymore on 40 man.
Interesting split on Heyward according to ESPN. As a CF, his slash line .292/.363/.375/.738. At RF: .212/.204/.300/.604. 21/72 as a CF, 58/273 as a RF.
He's also been better when batting 2nd, but he had a nice start in the 6 hole, but has slumped ever since. He was heating up before the All Star break, but is only hitting .108 in the 2nd half.
When we played the Reds with Chapman, I always thought of it as an eight-inning game. So now other teams have eight innings to try to get a lead against the Cubs. Should be a challenge, assuming three or four Cubs ever start hitting again.
I don't really try to get to know and like these players personally. I'm rooting for laundry, for the most part. Exceptions might be when a player makes trouble in the clubhouse or in the dugout. (Zambrano and Bradley come to mind. Also Papelbon.) But I don't think Chapman is one of those jerks.
Unfortunately, a pretty good summary. It looks like next year Heyward will be getting yet another batting stance adjustment.
The recent good news has been Baez. I'm afraid about the next league adjustment on him, though, which is probably right around the corner.
Bryant I don't worry about too much. Just not seeing the ball well right now. He'll turn it around. Russell's been good with men in scoring position all year and he's 22ish. He'll be fine but next year is likely to be his breakout year.
If Travis' back-to-back-to-back walks cost Hendricks the ERA title, that would really suck.
Edit: "A lifeless loss to a lousy Sox team."
This place is a real downer after a loss to the Sox.
I expect they will go 5-9 games above .500 the rest of the year. 96-98 wins will win the Division.
They should have one more 2-3 week hot streak in them.
However, several players are just "average" for the last month: Zobrist, Ross, Russell, Ceasar. Montero is terrible, plus he cannot throw anyone out. -WAR. Heyward is abysmal at the plate, but a plus in the OF. Still with RISP he has been terrible. KB has not been driving in runs as of late. But Apparently the team is still above average with RISP according to S Sahadev.
I came to that realization tonight. I kept expecting them to play better, but now I realize they aren't going to. They are a .500 team now.
- They have one reliable starting pitcher. Jake's magic is gone, and it doesn't look like it's coming back. Lester has been lousy recently. Lackey's ERA goes up every time he pitches.
- Heyward has been dead weight all year. I can't remember a single series where he was a significant offensive contributor. Not one. Great defense, but but if he were hitting .270 with 10 HR and played average defense, the Cubs would be better off.
new rule...no one's allowed to throw k.bryant a changeup
Team is .500 since early May and is playing like a .500 team. Lack of offense seems to be putting a lot of pressure on the pitchers...and they aren't handling it terribly well.
.500 the rest of the way still may win the division though.
...i hate espn.
nothing like settling into a cubs game to get a few minutes cutaway for an ortiz AB in the 6th inning of the det/bos game.
oh, at least they're doing split screen now...i guess.
I'm liking this rookie Nathan.
Richard DFA'd. Meh...
Throwbacks with fashionable cutouts would be a nice touch.
The next 2 games are nationally televised. I think we dominate tonight, hitting 3 HRs off Shields. Great night for KB to end HR drought facing HR prone pitcher in one of the most hitter friendly parks in the league.

It's called bullet heaven, not bullet hell.
This seems like a really good try for artists to help fund a way for information to be free! I wished I could of helped before it was extremely late.
I think that this is perfect.....and that the amount of people who uncopyright their art should stay in the minority. It's not a stupid thing to do. It's wonderful: other creative minds are allowed to take popular works and then modify them as they please. The not-so-wonderful part: money grubbing vultures will take said art and either make money off the original under the farce that it's their own, or modify it minutely to satisfy their consciousnesses, then take the profit. If only a moderate amount of people uncopyrighted their works, then there will be a pleasant balance.
It seems like your thoughts are in the right place, but I highly doubt this will have the effect you advertise wanting it to have in the flash. I honestly hold a lot of respect for all of you as artists, but It doesn't change that I think there is something... incorrect... with your choice of how you try to reach your goals here. Others have said it better than I can.
i agree with you guys completely and utterly this world honestly should be completely open!

After a successful four-year college football career at San Diego State, hometown hero Glenn Johnson suffered a devastating injury during his _____th year as starting _____ for the Chargers (because in movies, you always get drafted by your hometown), forcing him to retire prematurely. After football, Johnson became involved in a variety of local business ventures, most notably opening a chain of popular steakhouses, appropriately named Glenn Johnson's Popular Steakhouse.
Unfortunately, Johnson lost it all, including the steakhouses, after making an ill-advised bet during a wild weekend in Vegas with good friend Chris Collinsworth.

Real-Time, In Situ Measurement of Hexavalent Chromium in Groundwater

Research Institution:
AbstractThe U.S Department of Energy is seeking a sensitive and robust sensor that can perform real-time, in situ monitoring of hexavalent chromium in groundwater wells at environmental legacy sites, and that is capable of operating for extended periods without maintenance. Recent laboratory tests have shown that chromate ion, which is the dominant form of hexavalent chromium at the near-neutral pH of natural groundwater, can be measured at low concentrations (a few parts per billion) using near- ultraviolet absorption spectrophotometry, and that interference caused by turbidity (suspended particulate matter) can be accurately compensated by measuring the amount of UV light scattered by the turbidity. The overall objective of the proposed research is a cable-deployed, submersible, stable, and cost-effective instrument that performs the in situ measurements on demand or on a set schedule, and which yields a signal suitable for telemetry or storage in a data logger, as well as for on-site real-time investigations. Commercial Applications and Other Benefits: Significant reduction of costs associated with groundwater sampling and analysis for monitoring hexavalent chromium at DOE and industrial sites (e.g., Hanford Site, tanneries, chrome plating operations) would in itself be a national benefit. Depth-discrete profiling of hexavalent chromium concentrations in wells, important for understanding contaminant distribution and optimizing groundwater remedial methods, will be greatly simplified. The technology developed will be immediately adaptable for controlling and monitoring remedial methods such as pump & amp; treat, which will increase its commercial appeal

A previous work explicitly models the discontinuous motion estimation problem in the frequency domain where the motion parameters are estimated using a harmonic retrieval approach. The vertical and horizontal components of the motion are independently estimated from the locations of the peaks of respective periodogram analyses and they are paired to obtain the motion vectors using a procedure proposed by Chen, Giannakis, Nandhakumar (see IEEE Trans. Image Processing, vol.7, p.1242-56, 1998). In this paper, we present a more efficient method that replaces the motion component pairing task and hence eliminates the problems of the pairing method described by Chen et al. The method described in this paper uses the fuzzy c-planes (FCP) clustering approach to fit planes to three-dimensional (3-D) frequency domain data obtained from the peaks of the periodograms. Experimental results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method

Q: Would America's Providential History be appropriate for middle school? I am homeschooling an 11 year old. I already have America's Providential History and I am interested in purchasing the Teacher's Guide to go with it. I would like to know if this is age-appropriate for a middle schooler, or geared more toward high school-adult. Thank you.

How is everyone feeling? I'm curious what symptoms you guys are having, as I am not really experiencing any major symptoms. I feel a little nauseous and can't eat certain foods, but definitely feel hungry in the morning! Experiencing a bit of bloating later in the day, and maybe more tired than usual, but nothing that's making me uncomfortable.
Club for the 6 weekers! EDD Sept 19-26, 2014!
Last edited 01/28/2014
EDD 9/23- 6 weeks today! I convinced my doc to give me a 7 week ultrasound bc I didn't want to wait a full 9 weeks :). My first appt is 2/4. Starting today I have been so exhausted. It has hit me full force and I work 12 hour shifts! Driving to work I felt like falling asleep. I hope this let's up and I get some energy somewhere. Also, the smell of butter makes me want to vomit lol
Posted 01/28/2014
We have the same due date, and my appointment is Feb 6!
Posted 01/28/2014
I'm due the 24th also! I feel tired at times during the day and I get the headaches.
Posted 01/28/2014
I'm six weeks as well and the only symptoms I'm experiencing are horrible acne! Other than that I'm not nauseous nor hungry but the acne are the worse.
Posted 01/28/2014
Congrats! my appt is 1/29 also and my EDD is 9/26, I am excited to know if things are fine. I wish you good luck, keep me posted if you don't mine.
Posted 01/28/2014
Due on 9/24. Biggest problem I have is bloating and being gassy! I can hear my stomach rumbling!
Posted 01/28/2014
Ugh. My boobs haven't stopped hurting! That...along with mild cramping on and off is driving me crazy. No nausea though (knock on wood). ...& i can't stay asleep. Weird vivid dreams and getting up to pee twice every night are making me exhausted.
Posted 01/28/2014

One more time....
One more time....
Sure is fun to watch them score finally. To think they were no-hit until the 7th...
Got to admit it - it was comforting seeing Rondon come out for the eighth after just taking a two run lead ... And put the hammer down with a 7 pitch inning. Good stuff
blown the hell open...7 run lead
11 hits off Wainwright tonight. Everything going right for the Cards right now. Motherfucking motherfuckers.
it was more no-doubt than bryant's HR. it wont make any end-of-season highlight reels, but that one was booked to leave on contact.
Javy! Javy! Javy!
How sweet was that - Cranked it!
393 happy feet
cubs take a 2 run lead in the 7th. sweet.
...and the Cards tie and take the lead in the 9th. off Familia.
Familia blows his first save of the season -- gives up 2 in 9th to the Cards.
Not much going our way these days.
bryant's back!
no-doubt HR towering to CF...tie game.
This site is as dead as the team.
AL pitcher hits a home run for a 1-0 lead. There goes perspective
Here are the ERAs for the last five starting pitchers:
At what point does the manager note it's not the "other pitcher"?
And why does he start Montero in the middle of a downturn?
Some perspective (mostly for my own benefit): Dan Straily beat MadBum 2-1 today as the Reds took 2 of 3 in SF. Giants are 2-9 since the break and their lead over LA is down to 2.5 games. So, yeah...baseball. It'll drive ya nuts.
McNutt / Archer didn't work out well for us.
The floor is more valuable than the ceiling. It's the same reason we drafted Kris Bryant instead of Jon Gray.

The special effects that let Gulliver be a giant in Lilliput and a mite in
Brobdingnag are by the reigning genius of the day, Ray Harryhausen, but
writer/director Jack Sher's 1960 film wisely uses them only in the service
of the story. They have held up quite well, in part because they were
with restraint to begin with and they do nothing to interrupt or distract
from the story and its points. (A minor exception could be the fight with
giant animated crocodile that must have been damn fun for the effects
but even it is kept within reason.)
Is this a film for children or a film for adults? The too-easy answer is that it is obviously a children's version: There is none of the trumped-up insanity element that the dreary-but-great-looking 1996 TV movie shoe-horned in for cheap drama. Neither is there the despair or genuine misanthropy of the book.
Only Lilliput and Brobdingnag are visited. (No Laputa, Balnibari, Luggnag, Glubbdubdrib, Japan, or Houyhnhnms. The third world is Gulliver's own normal-sized world.) Gulliver puts out the fire in Lilliput by spitting wine. (In the book, the wine has been processed by Gulliver's bladder before he douses the fire with it.) Many characters, though not all, are all done in a cartoonish way clearly aimed at children. The travels are framed within the added-on love story of Gulliver and his fiancée Elizabeth.
These are good choices. Children are inherently interested in the size contrasts. (It must add something to the experience that first they identify with the Lilliputians but later identify with Gulliver.) Spitting the wine is good enough. The cartoonish-ness makes the characters less threatening than they could have been. The love story is light and easy to follow, and promotes marriage.
There are even a couple of musical numbers, one a love song that Gulliver sings. The Bernard Herrmann score is a fine complement to the film, as you would expect from the composer of music for the original Psycho, Citizen Kane, Magnificent Ambersons, Ghost and Mrs. Muir, Day the Earth Stood Still, Alfred Hitchcock Presents (tv), Have Gun Will Travel (tv), Perry Mason (tv), Twilight Zone, Cape Fear (1962), Taxi Driver, and on and on and on.
But Sher's script and direction have preserved some important points and spirit from the book: The gratitude of princes is short-lived. The causes of war can be shockingly petty. Vanity and unreason among the powerful make truth an early casualty in the pursuit of power. The various unpleasant characters (and the few nice ones) actually reflect things inside all of us. If it's okay for an adult to be reminded of these things in a playful way (certainly more playful than the original), then this film will amuse and inform that adult.
And what are Gulliver and Elizabeth doing when their ball-field sized marriage license falls over them like a tent, and King Brob, peeking under it, is moved to say, "You're right dear. I'd better marry them at once."
Ultimately, it has to go down in the books as a children's film, but surely an uncommon one: an intelligent adaptation, if abridged and lighthearted, of a great classic, that stands on its own for entertainment and, if you like, can whet your child's appetite for the book when that time arrives.
Like the tacked-on love story, there is a tacked-on ending that suggests that the whole thing might have been a dream. I originally found this annoying.
These days, watching with my little girl, I find that I'm glad for the admittedly sore-thumb reminder that the value of the story is not in whether those characters do or don't exist, but in what the story says about what is within us. As with all such points in the film, you'll have to talk with your child a bit to be sure that it comes across, but what a pleasure - to find a film that sparks such a discussion with your child.

CAMDEN, NJ-Marcus & Millichap has orchestrated sale of a 392-unit low-income apartment complex here for $16.1 million.
The brokerage team of Ridge MacLaren, Andrew Townsend and Clarke Talone had the exclusive listing and marketed The Crestbury apartments for a New Jersey-based limited liability company. The buyer was Tryko Partners LLC of Brick, N.J.
"The buyer received excellent financing on this low-income property," says Townsend, who adds that Tryko plans make substantial renovations. "The new owner plans improvements including new windows, boilers, kitchens, bathrooms and landscaping, which will vastly improve quality of life for the tenants."
MacLaren said the transaction required cooperation between buyer and seller "to navigate through bureaucratic issues." One sticky issue involved the buyer's assumption of a payment-in-lieu-of-taxes (PILOT) agreement.
Built in 1950, The Crestbury is located within a few miles of bridges heading into Philadelphia. Its one- and two-bedroom units overlook a neighborhood park.
Marcus & Millichap's brokers said the property carried no mortgage at the time of sale.
The national company's new forecast says the northern part of New Jersey is ranked among the top 10 most attractive apartment markets in the country for real estate investors this year – although the southern part of the state has traditionally not been a hot market.
The California-based brokerage, which has its state offices in Elmwood Park, reports that there will be fairly little inventory growth for Garden State apartments this year. Rents are expected to rise overall in the state, because of investors who are buying and renovating older properties in secondary markets.

I have also found that your prices are lower than most of the craft stores in and around my town, which I am also thankful for. I am disabled and money is short--every penny counts. So far you have had anything I've needed and shopping online is much better than driving around from store to store, looking for a parking place and waiting in line to fight the traffic back home. Thanks!!!

I am getting the popup

Student Life;A Lesson in Limbo
Published: March 31, 1996
(Page 2 of 2)
"My work on my dissertation would definitely slow," she said of her research on images of women and violence in 19th century German fiction. "And I'd get rid of my committee work immediately." She enjoys her contact with faculty and administrators as a student member of the graduate school's executive committee, a policy-making group.
That morning she had taken a bus in from nearby Branford, where she lives with her husband, Ray, a nurse. She arrived at 8:15 in the office she shares with two other students and then went to Harkness Hall, home of the German Department, where she typed exercises for the day's class into a computer, printed them out and made copies.
She had a planning meeting for Yale's new graduate-student center before her 10:30 class, and so she had broken a personal rule and prepped for the class the night before. "Teaching is something to which you can devote unlimited time," she said, "so I limit myself by preparing for my classes each morning."
Despite the complaints of exploitation by some graduate students at Yale, most teach much less than those at public universities. Like most, Ms. Marshall, who is 26 did not teach at all her first two years while she did her seminar work, supported by a Yale fellowship.
From her third year on, she has taught one course a semester, plus summer school. This year, counting a $1,000 award for teaching excellence, her stipend is $12,000. She hopes to win a Fulbright scholarship next year, her last, to study in Germany. If not, Yale awards full-year dissertation fellowships to free advanced students from teaching. Yale's goal is to confer degrees in only six years.
Those at Yale who teach two courses a semester, she suggested, do so because they need the extra money; often, they are older and have families. "I wouldn't recommend graduate school to anyone with a family," she said.
She and her husband, she said, went into debt her first years at Yale, when he was in nursing school and they lived on her stipend. "That was to be expected," she said. "Now we're getting out of debt."
Like Mr. Battles, she thinks she has been treated well. "When I was an undergraduate, I worked a lot of hours outside my education to finance my education," she said. "Now my education is financing my education."
The union movement at Yale, she said, may partly be a response to the isolated nature of graduate study in the humanities and social sciences, where it has the strongest support.
"Some people say the science students weren't interested in unionization because their stipends are paid by the Federal Government and they get more," she said. "They get maybe $2,000 a year more, and that's something, but it's not as much as they make it out to be. I think it's more that they get daily feedback in their laboratories, while we're told, 'Okay, go off and write your dissertations.' "
Ms. Marshall said she learned her first year that the predicted openings weren't materializing, "that it was not going to be easy to get a job. I knew I had to be superlative, that I had to have a record that would give no one a reason to throw my resume on the rejections."
In addition to her dissertation, this semester she is writing her fourth paper, to present at a regional meeting of the Modern Language Association.
Stephen Watt, an associate professor of English at Indiana University, has written about the pressures that "professionalization" puts on students: not only the stress of publishing enough papers to win tenure a generation ago, but the financial and emotional costs of attending conferences while prolonging the graduate years.
"Against a lousy job market, what it comes down to is, you not only have to teach well, be smart and be professional, but even if you do all those things, you still may be unsuccessful," he said.
In 1993, 6,006 Ph.D.'s were awarded in the humanities, 27 percent more than a decade earlier, according to the National Center for Education Statistics, while some tenure-track openings were attracting as many as 800 applications.
Mr. Battles enjoys teaching and knows that the experience is essential for his resume. But he didn't realize how much time it drew from his research until last semester, when he won a dissertation fellowship and for the first time did not teach.
"It's a lot more intrusive than it seems when you only count the hours," he said. "There always seems to be a break in the day. Your time is segmented. There's not only the preparation, but it's always in your mind."
His days start at 9 A.M., he said, and "end in terms of work around 11 at night." He paused. "I don't power all the way through. I hang out with my roommate. Or I see someone at a coffee shop. I find that if you work 24 hours a day, you tend to be reclusive."
At Yale, Ms. Marshall's class is followed by office hours after lunch, when she is usually free to grade papers. The rest of the afternoon is spent at the Sterling Memorial Library, in meetings, or in her office or the department.
Because commuting puts her on campus for the entire day, she sees other assistants and her faculty more than many students do. Still, like most students at the dissertation stage, she has discussed her work with her adviser, Jeffrey Sammons, only a few times this year.
"He doesn't chase me down," she said. "He waits until I'm ready, and I'm very meticulous about being ready. I don't give him 5 or 10 pages. I wait until I have 70 pages that hold together as a chapter."
In late afternoon or early evening, she takes a bus home, where her husband is often about to leave for a night shift. She brings her notes and books into the living room, curls up with a laptop computer, and works on her dissertation.
The job market has affected even her choice of a topic: appealing across disciplines, it suggests she could teach in a women's studies program as well as a German department. "More bang for the buck," she said.
Although Mr. Battles and Ms. Marshall are at the stage where they are doing as much as they can to secure their futures, they both feel they can't afford to worry about them.
"Being pessimistic now doesn't do me any good," Ms. Marshall said. "I'll be pessimistic later, when I don't get any calls."
Mr. Battles' goal is not only teaching, but a life of research; to pursue it, he must win a job at not just a college, but at a university with a rich library. He has seen other students commit themselves so totally to the competition that losing devastated them. And so he works to maintain an equilibrium that allows him to put almost everything into his research, while holding back enough to survive disappointment.
"The world's not going to end if Paul Battles does not become an English professor," he said. But he has always been at the top of every class, so he will see what happens this time. There are jobs out there, after all, maybe as many as a dozen last year in his field.
"My adviser keeps telling me, 'Good people get the jobs, good people get the jobs, be one of the good people and you'll get a job,' " he said. "So that's my mantra. Whenever I have doubts, I chant, 'Good people get the jobs.' "

Police who tackled deranged knifeman armed with 10in blade in halal butcher's shop praised as attacker jailed indefinitely
- Christopher Haughton lashed out at officers with a ten-inch butcher's knife
- Was heard chanting 'God help me to kill my enemies' moments before attack
- Bit one policeman, repeatedly stabbed another and injured others
- Judge has praised officers and detained Haughton indefinitely
Guilty: Christopher Haughton tried to kill two police officers with a meat cleaver
A judge today praised police officers seriously injured by a deranged knifeman who turned a halal butchers shop into a bloodbath.
Christopher Haughton, 33, seriously injured three officers and attacked the colleagues who tried to save them.
Judge Peter Beaumont, the Recorder of London, said the officers showed courage, as he ordered Haughton to be detained without limit of time under the Mental Health Act.
He asked for his comments to be passed on to the Metropolitan Police commissioner.
Police constables Alistair Hinchliff, Thomas Harding and Andrew Robb needed surgery and months of treatment after the attack in November last year.
Judge Beaumont said: 'It seems appropriate to draw to the attention of the commissioner the court's appreciation of the very considerable courage of the three police officers.
'All three acted in a very difficult situation with very considerable courage and the public is in their debt.'
He also praised Sergeant David Weir, the senior officer at the scene, who was in a police vehicle when a breeze block was thrown at the windscreen.
The judge said: 'The court expresses its appreciation of the determination and skill he displayed in a situation which was in danger of unravelling out of control.'
Haughton, a paranoid schizophrenic, watched the proceedings from a videolink from Broadmoor secure hospital where he is detained.
In a letter, his mother Angela apologised to the officers on behalf of her family. She said Haughton had been calm and loving before becoming ill.
Haughton, of Wembley, north London, was convicted at the Old Bailey this week of the attempted murders of PCs Hinchliff and Harding.
He was also found guilty of assaulting six other officers, including causing grievous bodily harm to PC Robb.
Haughton caused minor injuries to two female officers during an incident in October last year.
Attacked: Pictured left to right are Alastair Hinchliff, Andrew Robb, John Charlton, Tom Harding and Sham Haque who were involved in the incident in a butcher's
He was allowed bail but in November he caused chaos when he launched his knife attack in Kingsbury, north London.
He was heard chanting 'God help me to kill my enemies' moments before the attack.
The police were called and when two officers tried to speak to him, the 33-year-old, who was armed with a ten-inch butcher's knife, refused to calm down and bit one of them on the arm before throwing bricks at him injuring his hand.
Stabbing: The knife used by Haughton who has been detained without limit for his attack on several policeman
As back-up arrived, Haughton made his way towards the butcher's shop but stopped to throw a breeze block at the patrol car's windscreen and tins of baked beans grabbed from a shop at pursuing officers.
He then stormed into a Halal butchers screaming 'Give me a chopper! Give me a chopper!' before he grabbed the knife and turned on officers who feared he may attack innocent workers or shoppers.
One officer, PC Thomas Harding, tried to pin him down with a riot shield but Haughton managed to straddle him and repeatedly stabbed the officer who wore a stab proof vest until one blow pierced below the protection into his bowel.
As another officer, PC Alastair Hinchliff, pushed Haughton off PC Harding, he too fell to the floor and Haughton slashed him across the left side of his face from temple to ear with the knife penetrating his cheek into the mouth.
Evidence: PC Stephen Barker, seen arriving at the Old Bailey, said Christopher Haughton bit him and tore his sleeve off with his teeth
He then stabbed PC Hinchliff in the upper and lower arm exposing the muscle and tendons of the arm as other officers struck him with their batons with no effect.
Haughton then lashed out twice cutting across PC Andre Robb's knee.
'Despite his continued violence' officers managed to pin him against the meat counter but as they tried to cuff him, Haughton attempted to stab PC Shaun Haque in the neck but an officer managed to grab his wrists.
Edward Brown QC, prosecuting, told the court that some of the officers now found it difficult to attend incidents where a knife might be involved.
Incident: Police cordoned off the scene after the stabbings in Kingsbury, north west London. Medical supplies can be seen strewn across the road
PC Harding had nine inches of
intestine removed after he was stabbed in the stomach through a shield
after being pinned on the ground.
He suffered 'unspeakable pain' and thought he was going to die.
PC Hinchliff, who was stabbed in the face and arm when he went to help his colleague, said he had been left with scars on his face.
Mr Brown said: 'He tends to shy away from incidents when mention is made of someone carrying a knife.'
Attack: As police tried to put Haughton into handcuffs he attempted to stab another officer in the neck
He told the trial: 'It was perhaps only a matter of very good fortune that some of the police officers escaped with their lives.'
Detective Inspector Keely Smith said later: 'Without the intervention of other officers at the scene who were able to eventually restrain Haughton, the outcome could have been very different.'
In pre-trial legal hearings Haughton claimed he was Jesus Christ and police were trying to stop him in his work of urging gang members to lay down their arms.
Haughton claimed he was insane and had acted in the way he did because police were trying to kill him.
Haughton was also convicted of ABH on WPC Vicky Vincent and common assault on WPC Alison Spruce just a month before in October 2011.
Police had been called to Haughton's bedsit in Streatham, south London, as he played loud music, brandished a samurai sword and threatened other residents forcing them to flee.
When one resident complained about the music, Haughton pushed him down the stairs and then tried to kick in all the bedsit doors, causing £2,500 of damage.
When officers arrived he charged at them armed with a broom and in the violent struggle officers had to use CS spray to subdue him.
However, he still managed to bite WPC Vincent in her thigh drawing blood and only let go when another officer whacked him on his shoulders with a baton.
He then spat blood into WPC Alison Spruce's face.

Skip to comments.Stop Erecting of Statue of Genocide Leader Ataturk in Rome!
Posted on 12/11/2005 7:33:28 PM PST by eleni121
Please click the following link and send an email to the Mayor of Rome protesting the erection of a mass murderer Mustafa kemal Ataturk.
Here is the link:
PING for action.
Here's an erection stopper.
The header of this post nearly knocked me off of my chair.
Ol' Helen---LOL for sure. I knew someone would post an analogy...glad it was you.
Please sign the petition.
Mass murderers should not have erections?
If this was a sex offender (like rapist), I can see your point.
However, I don't see a problem with mass murderers getting erections.
In Chicago the public bureau in charge of putting up statutes is the Department of Erections and Mounting.
Or so goes the legend.
" protesting the erection" - bad choice of words :-)
It's funny how some people think ;>)
Seriously, sign the petition...it's not a laughing matter.
LOL! You took the words right out of my mouth! I hate it when statues get an .....
I actually knew a guy,a customer,who's businees cards identified him as an erection specialist.
Well, I protest, but how the hell ya gonna stop it?
I mean, nature taking it's natural course and all that...
Erection of statue. The term "erection" of statue is a commonly used phrase as you well know.
Whatever. Just sign the petition ;>))
My grandfather was a full blooded Armenian whose mother had to flee. That makes me a quarter Armenian.
It is past history. I am guessing they are erecting the statue to honor Attaturk's efforts to make Turkey a modern country. Unless they are making a statue specifically to commemorate Attaturk's actions against the Armenians, I am willing to let it go.
But that is just me. Your opinion may vary and you are welcome to it.
In this case "nature" happens to be the Mayor of Rome who seems to have no problem erecting a statue of a mass murderer.
There is absolutely no need to place a statue of this monster in Rome - and indeed he was - to commemorate what? The ethnic cleansing of several millions of Christians?
You must be too removed from the actual events that took place but there are many thousands of descendants of those who suffered and died for whom this action represents a disrespectful slap in the face.
Kind of like a statue of Stalin set up in Ukraine.
I can think of many women who can get that title, for starters most Victoria's Secret models :)
The real Mustafa as opposed to the cleaned up one by Turks.
Don't be so gullible.
Oh and by the way, any American citizen is free to say what he/she wants to any government he/she wants.
Who assigned you to the role of monitor/censor?

Abolisment of the office of the Sultan (November 1922)

"However he was not a Christian, a given. OTOH be careful of whom you accuse of genocide:
"However, Ataturk was not a mass murderer or supporter of genocide. Armenians principle accusation is that he was responsible for a giant fire that destroyed much of Smyrna when he captured the city from the Greeks during the War of Independence, but in truth, the source of the fire has not been conclusively proven, with both sides blaming the other. Individual Turkish soldiers did most definitely commit war crimes during the course of the war, and of course the non-Turkish populations fleeing the war as refugees suffered many troubles, but Ataturk definitely did not order any organized attempts at genocide."
So what I see is a guy who loved his country and took it into the 20th Century kicking and screaming. You're accuastions of genocide are weak at best.
Someone who says it better than I:
"Go and find me a published encylopedia which accuses Ataturk of sanctioning a genocide, find me a published encylopedia which says Turks raped, pillaged, massacred and set fire to Smyrna, find me a published encylopedia which has a section entitled "Turkish government denial" of an Armenian genocide."
Obviously I will not sign your peitition. Rewrite history somewhere else.
A full blooded response is what is needed here. No half-cocked, soft, or lukewarm action will suffice - passions need to be raging, hot, and the message needs to be pounded home. This erection cannot take place.
Too bad the petition is in Italian...
Post # 28 is brilliant :-))))))))
The Pope is trying to trying to improve relations with the Eastern Church and now this.
The Greeks still talk about the Massacre on the Island of Cios.
The Greeks will not be pleased.
I would sign it, but, I can't read the language.
Now you can't be serious.,.an intelligent wordy guy like you can't figure out a little Italian. All you have to do is sign your name and a couple of other items.
As for your precious allegory: cute, but irrevelant to the discussion.
Thanks for the info. I'm glad I read your post before I signed.
Glorifying a pedophile and butcher appears to fit your definition of a "reformer".
In fact everything you have posted comes from propaganda mill sites. You really need to speak to the descendants and survivors of the monster Ataturk. Do you dare? I doubt it.
You've bought the lies hook line and sinker.
It's not just the Greeks of course. The major genocide of the 20th century was also commited against the Armenian and Assyrian Christians. Muslim Turks did a good job of eliminating any trace of Christianity in Anatolia.
Attatuck kept Turkey out of the hands of the Islamofascists and well into the Western orbit. He deserves our thanks for that.
Interesting growing list of keywords at top of page: " ARMENIA; ASSYRIANS; ATATURK; BONER; CIALIS; ERECTION; FLACCID; GENOCIDE; GREECE; IMPOTENT; LEVETRA; LIMP; STATUE; STIFF; TURKEY; VIAGRA; WOODIE;"
Did the Turkophile also describe the genocide of 2 million Chrstians that took place in Turkey and the fact that Turks still oppress the few minorities still living there?
But then knowing that you wouldn't sign anyway...
No I've asked for published proof. Last time I checked my bathroom wall still holds my degree in history.
Further my Grandfather was at Gallipoli (a gunner on the british side) so no love lost on this guy. However, you just simply state a few "facts" with no proof and expect me to accept them.
Can't find the petition on that site. Perhaps you should post a direct link to the petition itself.
I'll try again.
There are some sick people on FR...a few but there they are. Mostly I assume are Turkophiles.
"No to the genocider Ataturk in Rome"
The link works and just click it. Thanks.
"an intelligent wordy guy like you can't figure out a little Italian"
Are you sure that is in Italian? this is what the 'Fish' returned as a translation from Italian to English:
"Permitas que genocida a Como Ataturk does not hold a monument en Rome. Sumate to los esfuerzos por hacer de este mundo a lugar mas seguro.
Spanish to English did better.
"You do not allow that a genocida as Ataturk has a monument in Rome. Sumate to the efforts to make of this world a place surely but."
Two words that will immediately get a Greek's hair up.
Turkey and Macedonia.
Send email to the major in a language he can understand.
"The link works and just click it. Thanks."
Yes, they do. My mistake!
Muchas gracias.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M., July 25, 2016 - Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT) has named a national research university and a consortium of New Mexico universities to its team competing for the Sandia National Laboratories Management and Operating contract. Purdue University, New Mexico State University and the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology will play key roles in Sandias specialized research and development and technology transfer initiatives. Each university will provide expert personnel and facilities to advance Sandias dynamic research and development programs, which are on the cutting edge of nuclear deterrence, cyber security, energy technologies, non-proliferation and advanced computing. In addition, the new team arrangements will allow students and faculty from the universities to interact more strategically at Sandia to promote collaboration, innovation and talent development. Sandias hallmark is nationwide impact coupled with strong New Mexico roots, and weve built a team that reflects that character while positioning the Labs to meet the needs of a dynamic national security environment, said Rick Ambrose, chair of the Sandia Corporation board of directors and executive vice president of Lockheed Martin Space Systems. Our goal is to help the National Nuclear Security Administration further solidify Sandias role as a national asset by bringing in even stronger R&D partnerships, improving the national security talent pipeline and sparking small business growth through a robust commercialization program.Read Full Story

Falls school leaders will consider ways to trim more than $2 million from budget
Officials seek input from staff, residents
Menomonee Falls - The Menomonee Falls School District will face some challenging decisions in the months ahead, as it prepares to reduce its proposed 2013-14 budget by $2.4 million to $2.6 million.
In an update to the School Board on Monday, Superintendent Patricia Greco explained that based on Gov. Scott Walker's proposed biennial budget, the district is now anticipating a zero increase in per pupil funding.
At that level, the district's 2013-14 revenues are anticipated to amount to about $47 million, with projected expenditures currently estimated at $49.4 million.
Assumptions taken into consideration include holding expenses for transportation and supplies and equipment at their current level, and planning for increases of 5 percent for utilities, 7.5 percent for property/casualty insurance, 7 percent for health and dental insurance in the first half of 2014, and 2.5 percent for salaries, which Greco previously noted may be shifted down to 1.5 percent.
The board will be weighing the School District's mission, strategic goals and budget goals as it begins to identify areas for cuts.
"The budget goals highlight the lens we're using in how we're making the decisions," Greco said. "And these are hard decisions."
Some of those goals include improving student academic achievement and staff performance, sustaining appropriate class size ratios, preparing students for successful college and career decisions, maintaining efficient and effective operations, and safeguarding taxpayer dollars.
"We're going to be advancing areas that represent strong teachers and currently strong programs for reductions, and we know that," Greco said.
"Part of the challenge is, as we're looking at the proposed freeze, we are going to have to make some hard choices to advance, and we recognize that all of the current programming is valued," she added.
The board was prepared to hold a budget work session on Feb. 27, in which staff planned to go through the budget score card with board members and begin making recommendations for advancing the budget, Greco said. A round table board discussion on the budget also is scheduled for March 6.
Greco said it is likely that multiple evenings will be dedicated to the budget process during the course of spring, with weekly question-and-answer updates to be provided to staff.
Board member Scott Ternes emphasized the need to inform the public of budget-related meetings in order to encourage community involvement in the process.
WHAT: School Board round table discussion on 2013-14 budget
WHEN: 6:30 p.m. March 6
WHERE: Menomonee Falls High School library, N8101 Merrimac Drive
