TROY | The University of West Alabama mens basketball team lost 99-93 in overtime to NCAA Division I foe Troy in its first exhibition contest of the season.
The Tigers maintained an 85-80 lead with 2:35 left in regulation, but Troys Taylor Vernon connected on a pair of free throws along with Brandon Hazzards bucket with 23 ticks left on the clock that sent the game into the extra period.

The Other End of Humerus
In an embarrassing conclusion to the saturday night game against the Brewers, the Cubs bullpen literally and figuratively exploded.
In a highlight on TV for Mr. Brenly, he went out on the ledge and predicted the two run HR from Micah Hoffpauir in the 5th inning as the big first baseman strode up to the plate. Brenly had given a handsignal to Hoffpauir before the game indicating his swing was just a pinch off the night before and he expected a sweet spot power shot tonight. Hoffpauir's blast to right was on the first pitch, making that a magic moment in the booth and both Len and Bob were somewhat giddy. Len Kasper couldn't recall any such prognostication from his partner in their 5 years together. It brought a game that felt like the Cubs were behind by a million runs actually back to a 3-2 defecit and made me realize that Ryan Dempster was having quite a solid outing.
Brenly the Prognosticator? Ryan Dempster deftly lasted into the 7th
inning although on TV, Len and Bob thought he was done after 6 and
they expressed their surprise to see him out on the mound beginning the 7th
after over 100 pitches. After back to back HR's to Counsell and Braun,
Dempster was done at 121 pitches. Cotts and Patton made the really ugly 7th a six spot for the Brewers.
During the disgusting 7th and 8th innings, the walkmasters paraded their stuff including walk(s) from Cotts, Patton, Fox and Heilman. I was suffering along with Ron Santo who said on the radio: "anytime you have 7 walks you don't deserve to win." Six of the nine walks the Cubs pitchers gave up came from the bullpen.
In the top of the 8th, the Cubs brought it back to 9-6 defecit with a 4 spot including back to back doubles by Fukudome and Bradley but the bullpen was yet to complete pouring kerosene on the ballgame.
The bottom of the 8th started with Chad Fox on the mound who promptly walked Braun (on 7 pitches) then blew out his right elbow on a pitch that was five feet high and wide above the strike zone. As we all know Fox's elbow has had multiple reconstructions and after his last term with the Cubs in which his usage by Dusty Baker drew criticism, he didn't get another surgery...just a miracle feeling that he could pitch on scar and duct tape. Apologies to Mr. Baker, time didn't heal that wound. In a 24 hour period the Cubs have exposed both the proximal humerus and the distal humerus. Ouch.
Chad Fox is now on the DL and the Cubs have called up Jose Ascanio from AAA Iowa as the bullpen parade continues.
Injury Delay...photo of Chad Fox after icing his elbow postgame.
Aaron Heilman replaces Chad Fox
Heilman promptly wets his pants by walking Fielder (4 pitches), Hardy (4 pitches) and Hart (6 pitches), with Hart's for the second run of the inning. Nobody to the rescue (Mets fans must be laughing their asses off). The cliche coaching visit to the mound does no good and then Duffy singles for another run and Kendall hits a sac fly for the Brewer's12th run.
As Arizona Phil has explained, Chad Fox was brought to the majors so that the Cubs will have roster flexibility if they get to the post-season. The Boy Scouts 60 day DL mastery merit badge goes to Jim Hendry.
Re: The Other End of Humerus
Soriano, Miles(SS), Fukudome, Bradley, Hoffpauir, Soto, Fontenot (3b), Scales (2b), Marshall vs Weeks, Hart, Braun, Fielder, Cameron, Hardy, Hall, Kendall, Suppan
Re: The Other End of Humerus
and the tightly hamstrung Ryan Freel era continues
Re: The Other End of Humerus
Nice article Cubster.
Jose Ascanio (0.94 WHIP), who just turned 24 on May 2, has been outstanding with the AAA Cubs this spring. Hope it translates to the majors. But how can a guy who stands six feet tall with this gut (http://www.thebaseballcube.com/players/A/jose-asca...)only weigh 150 lbs.?
Re: the game notes: you failed to mention that "Genius Jim" traded a healthy, although he plays baseball like a wounded cockroach, Joey Gathright for a terminally injured whiney-assed pariah with a hamstring as tight as a piano wire (not to be confused with Uncle Milty) who had to be scratched from the starting lineup yesterday on his first day with the Cubs. (Is that a record?)
On a positive note... Nice to see Fukudome break out of his 3/25 funk with two hits and DPLee continue to sit allowing Micah Hoffpauir to start at first base.

Is DLee the new Wally Pipp?
Re: The Other End of Humerus

Re: The Other End of Humerus
time to move fox from the "cubs bullpen usage" chart to the no-doubt-soon-to-be-created "cubs dl chart".

here's hoping kosuke, bradley, and hoff get revved up.
is soto enduring the sophomore blues? or was he a one-year wonder? still, i don't miss gabor the great.
go cubs! no sweepage today, please.
Re: The Other End of Humerus
As Arizona Phil has explained, Chad Fox was brought to the majors so that the Cubs will have roster flexibility if they get to the post-season. The Boy Scouts 60 day DL mastery merit badge goes to Jim Hendry.
As I am sure AZ Phil was saying that tongue-in-cheek, it still cost Hendry around $500K for that flexibility. And of course then there is Lou who is undoubtedly going to get blasted for hurting Fox's arm. I guess we can add Fox to the name of Lou's arms he has killed. :)
Re: The Other End of Humerus
Oh yeah, another shitty start by the Cubs. Down 2-0 already after 2 innings.
Re: The Other End of Humerus
2-2. Soriano 2 run jack.
10th HR.
Re: The Other End of Humerus
A-Fonse!!! We need the big boys to pick up the slack. Good job Soriano!
Re: The Other End of Humerus
Who's that?
Re: The Other End of Humerus
It's a pun on 'offense'.
Re: The Other End of Humerus
Yes it is. And it is a nickname they called him while he was up here with the Yankees.
Re: The Other End of Humerus
Pretty big win here, after 2 bullpen disasters. Guzman really came through with those 2 big innings. I think its time to move him into Heilman's spot give him the 7th inning.
Marshall had nothing the first 2 innings but righted the ship. Fontenot had some nice plays at 3rd.
The offense was good enough. Soto still looks bad. Freel did his best Gathright impression by being picked off lol
Moving forward I think the next 2 series vs the Padres and Astros are pretty big 4-2 or even 5-1 would look pretty nice.
Re: The Other End of Humerus
Miles was about to choke that at bat anyways.
Re: The Other End of Humerus
Marshall's MO this year is he gives up 2 or 3 early on, then pitches well for tje next 5-7 innings.
he is still young, amd I hope he finds a way to rid himself of this.
i recall Marquis did the same thing for us.
Re: The Other End of Humerus
I'm too lazy to back this up with stats so this is just a thought but it seems like Marshall would have a decent game one outing and really suck the next last year. This year he's been pretty consistent. This is almost 3/44 cuz I have said it so much but I'll never forget when Maddux was here and Marshall would park his ass next to him. Did it on more than one occasion. Students of the game often do well when they have some talent to mix in with it. And he does have a nice curve and moves around the plate nicely when he's on.
Re: The Other End of Humerus
During the second Maddux era he seemed to always give up a few runs early, only to lock it in for the next 4-5 innings.

Chris Sale was scratched from tonight's scheduled start due to a clubhouse incident before the game
he was sent home by the team, too. the wsox released a press statement and everything. they stated it was non-physical in nature.
He was scratched from his start today. No reason given.
At the start of the season the book was that he was trying to pitch to more contact so he could stay in the game longer and it seems to be working so far. Contact against is 77.5% this year and it was 70.2% the year before. He averaged 6.7 IP/game last year and so far it's 7 IP/game. His actual pitches per game are only down to 106.1/game from 107.2/game last year but if he's able to go a bit farther into games without throwing more pitches and without giving up more runs that is a good thing.
sale's skills and insane value makes it almost too hard to have a market for the guy...he's got 3/38m owed to him over 3 seasons (2 team options). he could easily pull in 30m/yr if he was on the market as a FA.
he's throwing a bit differently this season, especially with more sliders and less changeups like earlier in his career, but all his stuff still looks great even if the HRs are a little elevated and the Ks are down.
Torres, Happ, McKinney, Jimenez, and Candelario for Sale. Deal or no deal?
"The White Sox are reportedly asking for "five top prospects" for Chris Sale, FanRag Sports' Jon Heyman reports."
Unless he develops 30+ HR power and keeps his walk rate close to his K rate at the MLB level, he's not going to turn into Prince Fielder. And even if he does turn into Prince Fielder, he's gonna have a short prime. His very limited athleticism is likely to also detract some value from his ability to reach base--I don't buy making an out as being preferable to base clogging, but you'd certainly prefer just about any base runner other than Vogelbach, David Ortiz, etc.
seeing as arod has played a total of 27.1 innings of D at 1st/3rd and somehow managed a -0.5 dWAR with his 1 error at 1st and an overall positive total zone rating...he might end up even more in the shitter via the characteristics/flaws/whatever of how some sites determine various WAR values. dWAR doesn't directly lead to a WAR value, but the 2 main entities pushing the most popular variations of WAR sometimes lead to some interesting discrepancies in value.
I have a lot of faith in Baez that he's going to turn into a more consistent, solid player. It looks like it took him about a half season or so of futility at the plate to figure out he was not talented enough to get away with the crazy approach he had. I think his running game will eventually have a more measured aggression.

A Brief History of Intolerance in Modern Cosmology
by Dr. Jerry Bergman
January 21, 2009
A review of some recent well-documented cases of intolerance in the cosmology field illustrates a common problem in science. Many relate to the Big Bang theory, such as the case of Geoffrey and Margaret Burbidge and Halton Arp. None of the accounts involved Intelligent Design advocates or creationists. This selection removes this compounding factor from the evaluation, but the cases have direct relevance to both Intelligent Design and creationism because both groups face the same resistance. It was concluded that it is critical for science to advance that new ideas must be evaluated on the evidence and not because they challenge established science. This problem has persisted during the entire history of science, the most well known example being Galileo...

If you want on or off the Electric Universe Ping List, Freepmail me.
Thanks for the ping!
Any thoughts on the Cosmologists who question the Big Bang (and what would seem to be the fanatical persecution of the same)?
Peer review? Why that's ONLY for those already in agreement with whichever prevailing orthodoxy reigns supreme.
Gotta problem with that? Then you just don't understand how science *works*. Obviously, you must be an idiot, and all your ideas are just so many idiot offspring, not falling too far from the tree...
Here on FR when discussions turn to religion and philosophy vs. the current pronouncements of scientific theory, to say, "That's not scientific" or some such is a pejorative that the utterers appear to think renders all dissent futile.
Here that sort of thing provides fuel for debate but when the person saying it can put a choke hold on one's career by restricting research facilities and therefore the mother's milk of publication, peer review, then it's quite a different story.
It's a conspiracy. Cosmologists are part of the bigger conspiracy of scientists who want to make ignorant people look dumb.
Hostility may follow, but I doubt to the extreme of the Intelligent Design issue.
There is a difference.
Evolution biology is a historical science much like anthropology, archeology and Egyptology. They do not have a complete record to view - i.e. not every thing that ever lived left a fossil and an artifact. So in these disciplines, the theory is the paradigm to explain the quantization of the historical continuum and is "the" test for any evidence which accumulates thereafter. Intelligent Design questions the paradigm per se claiming that "certain" features are best explained by an intelligent cause.
One could argue that physical cosmology is a historical science as well. But physical cosmology proposes many blueprints (theories) which fit the physical evidence. However, unlike evolution biology, there is no single paradigm theory for physical cosmology. Theories include imaginary time, multi-verse, multi-world, ekpyrotic, cyclic and many more. The "paradigm" in that field consists of this universe's physical laws, physical causation and physical constants themselves.
However, if a scientist questioned that paradigm, e.g. denied the second law of thermodynamics, he might expect not only extreme skepticism but hostility as well.
In his fascinating essay, Refereed Journals: Do they ensure quality or enforce orthodoxy?, Tipler questions whether revolutionary theories (e.g. relativity) would have ever made it through the peer review process.
That is an interesting question because truly whenever a scientist assails a paradigm as opposed to a theory, he effectively attacks the entire discipline and therefore should expect the defense to include self-righteous indignation.
Conversely, as cosmologist Delaporte once noted (paraphrased): science has grown so large and become so specialized that there are precious few big thinkers these days. Or to put it another way, there are precious few scientists who are truly qualified to peer review a revolutionary theory.
I do understand the value of peer review however I strongly aver that every scientist should have an outlet for his theories, no matter how revolutionary they might be - and that he should never be punished for thinking outside the box, i.e. the paradigm.
The Founders should have specified "Freedom of Thought" instead of letting it be inferred from "Freedom of Speech." However, in their defense, they probably did not anticipate the pervasive "political correctness" of today's world.
A final point: the big bang theory itself is the most theological statement ever to come out of modern science (Jastrow.) Genesis 1 and John 1 both declare "In the beginning."
All physical cosmologies require space and time for physical causation. In the absence of time, events cannot occur. In the absence of space, things cannot exist. None can obviate the need for God the Creator, the First Cause of "all that there is" who is neither time bound nor space bound, uncreated.
No matter how far back they theoretical push the historical record (e.g. multi-verse theories) - they are always relying on space and time for physical causation. Without speaking of God, they can never say how much less why there is something instead of nothing at all.
When my brothers and sisters in Christ theologically question the big bang, they are discounting this important argument. Nevertheless, we must all declare the Truth as we have received it.
I agree with Jewish physicist Gerald Schroeder - God's revelation in Scripture and in Creation agree when one considers relativity and the big bang/inflationary model. From the inception of this universe to now, six days have elapsed relative to the inception - though from our space/time coordinates, billions of years have elapsed. The two are not mutually exclusive, they are relative. Or to put it another way, Genesis 1 is written from the Creator's perspective - not the perspective of a creature. In my view, the perspective of Scripture does not change to man's until Adam is banished to mortality.
The inquisition lives on. What will be next, house arrest? Too bad so many people assume white labcoats confer objectivity. Indeed, it would seem the field of science is one of the last bastions still capable of fooling the public into believing they are immune to human frailty. But alas, I suspect the days of being able to rely on naive public trust are rapidly coming to a close.
Excellent reply. But I am a bit confused by what you mean by "So in these disciplines, the theory is the paradigm to explain the quantization of the historical continuum..." Could you elaborate?
You know I do, right? I think alot of the creationists' ideas on cosmology are nonsense and have said so more than once but never have I suggested that they or their sources not be allowed to publish along side the big bang, etc. theories.
Why should someone with academic degrees be told he can no longer look through a telescope just because he thinks he sees a young universe or something? If the Emperor has no clothes, putting blindfolds on the crowd won't dress him.
Something can't be created from nothing; which leads us to either conclude that something always existed or the whole thing is a collective illusion, or something like that. :)
I subscribe to the "something always existed" angle. Matter and energy can be converted back and forth, manifested in various forms of each, but can neither be created nor destroyed.
2 Peter 3:8 But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day.
Time dilation addressed in Scripture thousands you years before science got there....... again.
Needs to be repeated often and to the evos, although you'll no doubt be accused of stretching things, twisting Scripture, not being literal, being too literal, whatever, to invalidate your comment.
ABG-Anything But God.
I find it by far the best explanation to reconcile the difference between what God tells us and what we observe.
Thanks for putting it so concisely.
But that's exactly what they're doing.
I don't have time to go into any kind of depth at the moment, but I'd be curious to find out which creationist ideas re: cosmology you categorize as nonsense.
A continuum is coherent whole.
A quantization is one instance in the continuum.
The geologic record is a historical record which has captured certain quantizations, e.g. the remains of certain creatures became fossils which are contained in the geologic record.
Likewise, the geologic record contains artifacts, records and structures left by humans which evidently existed long ago.
The historical sciences look at these quantizations of the historical record as data points (quantizations) in their blueprint, theoretical continuum.
Darwin's tree of life is "the" theoretical continuum into which one of the fossils would be fit.
Archeological theory concerning the Mayans is "the" theoretical continuum into which one of the artifacts would be fit.
In these historical science disciplines, the theory is not merely one alternative explanation but rather "the" paradigm for the discipline.
Egyptology, for instance, presupposes a linear progression of Egyptian civilization in its theoretical continuum.
Another way to look at it would be to envision a big blueprint (tree of life) into which the scientist fits whatever he finds. The historical scientist is focused on the data.
Physical cosmology - like physics and chemistry etc. - works differently. They don't have a paradigm theory. Theories (more than one usually) are built to explain what is observed.
It is a fundamental difference:
4. Biologists' views of the relation of biology to physics
Many biologists consider physical laws, artificial life, robotics, and even theoretical biology as largely irrelevant for their research. In the 1970s, a prominent molecular geneticist asked me, "Why do we need theory when we have all the facts?" At the time I dismissed the question as silly, as most physicists would. However, it is not as silly as the converse question, Why do we need facts when we have all the theories? These are actually interesting philosophical questions that show why trying to relate biology to physics is seldom of interest to biologists, even though it is of great interest to physicists. Questioning the importance of theory sounds eccentric to physicists for whom general theories is what physics is all about. Consequently, physicists, like the skeptics I mentioned above, are concerned when they learn facts of life that their theories do not appear capable of addressing. On the other hand, biologists, when they have the facts, need not worry about physical theories that neither address nor alter their facts. Ernst Mayr (1997) believes this difference is severe enough to separate physical and biological models: "Yes, biology is, like physics and chemistry, a science. But biology is not a science like physics and chemistry; it is rather an autonomous science on a par with the equally autonomous physical sciences."
A lot of the heavyweights appears not to buy the big bang idea: http://www.cosmologystatement.org
ABG-Anything But God.
Here's a scenario: You, being a believer in a young earth, naturally teach your children the same as fact, it's what you believe reality to be, right? So why not?
The kiddie's school science course' approved and vetted teaching is that the some version of the "BiG Bang" (hereafter BB) is fact and truth and reality. But your kiddies aver not and explain Dad says 'au contraire!' to BB.
But if the BB really is fact, and you, being familiar with the BB, deny that reality, isn't that a fair definition of mental imbalance? Denying reality in the face of overwhelming fact? Hmmm. Infinite possibilities here!
But you, being an adult, the school psychologist says may believe any error you wish but teaching craziness to little Johnny or Johnette is child abuse and must be reported to "The Proper Authorities".
Bring in the skinny broad social worker clutching a clipboard to her chest because she "knows how men are!" to quiz the kiddies about "all the other abuse" and you can finish the story.
You will believe, the truth is out where?
Scientists may not know what caused it, but folks who believe in God can assume that He brought it into being.
I hadn't read your comments, before I posted mine, and I've never heard of Gerald Schroeder, but it seems I was thinking the same thing as he!
we've plowed this ground before but when you wish give a shout and I'll gird my loins, draw my sword, lace up my boots, jump in the saddle, aahhh.....what have I left out?
The Age of the Universe
The link to this thread has been posted in crevo debates several times with very little response to it.
Notice the original thread has very little evo participation. What little there is is mostly derision, as expected.
For all the demands by evos to back up Scripture with science, they are clearly not interested in seriously considering the matter.
Hell must have frozen over, but I agree with you GGG.
Science now seems to be more about funding and grants than anything else.
Also Swordmakers ideas on the Electric Universe seem to fit the facts better than the standard cosmology.
More answers might manifest themselves if they would only ask Him, but I dunno. God will reveal to us what He wants to revealed to us, nothing more.
That said, I don't begrudge the Scientific Community their desire to explore. I enjoy hearing and reading about new discoveries and Man's tilting at frontiers. God gave us an inquisitive mind and the freedom to let it roam. I submit we, in the main, may not use it altogether in the way He intended. But freedom is all about making choices...
Meant to add on my previous reply that 44's apparent enamorment with the Scientific Method, but more specifically to the Scientific Community, is indicative of the sad state of science. Science can now best be described as Political Science.
I've been arguing for a while that science is not immune to godless liberals (hijacking evolution theory) no more than anything else:
==weve plowed this ground before but when you wish give a shout and Ill gird my loins, draw my sword, lace up my boots, jump in the saddle
Nothing like that. I was just curious which creationist cosmologies you consider nonsense. Who knows, I might even agree with you. But then again, I don't recall crossing swords with you on this issue, so perhaps you know a little something about what my response will be that I don't :o)
All the best—GGG
Maybe God is revealing Himself slowly to those non-believers, using their intellect and the disciplines they have decided to study, to show not only how He created the Universe and everything in it, but the sheer beauty of each system of life as it came into being, and adapted along the way.
In the meantime, we, who already believe He can do all things, can rejoice that those who have difficulty accepting Him through faith alone, can begin to believe through their own careful scientific observations. I'll rejoice for them, when they come to believe, even if they, as Thomas did, have to 'touch' Him in order to do so.
Time to breakout the iceskates :o)
And the wet version of the big bang, wherein the universe was a ball of water 2 light years in diameter, collapsed to form everything. It takes a judo on Genesis to make it support this. As propounded by Dr. Humphreys.
So the further out we see, the further back in time we're looking. And what information about the beginning is that showing us?
The age of the universe is about 13.7 billion years, but due to the expansion of space we are now observing objects that are now considerably farther away than a static 13.7 billion light-years distance. The edge of the observable universe is now located about 46.5 billion light-years away.
Estimates of the matter content of the observable universe indicate that it contains on the order of 10 [to the 80th] atoms. The vast majority of the energy density is contributed by dark matter and dark energy.
One thing it tells us is that there was a beginning, not an easy concept for some, I guess. Another is that if the farthest objects are 13 billion years old we can't really say much about their condition at this moment seeing they've had 13 billion years to change or not.
Excellent observation, dearest sister in Christ! Thank you so very much for your insightful essay-post!
First, that space/time itself expands. Thus a photon sent out when a star was just a billion light years away may not reach us until ten billion lights later. The photon traveled at the speed of light. For it, no time elapsed (null path.) But it took longer to get here because space/time itself expanded. In the inflationary phase of this universe, space/time itself expanded faster than the speed of light.
Second, that the rules which apply to relative velocities in special relativity - e.g. that relative velocities cannot increase past the speed of light - do not apply to relative velocities in comoving coordinates. If you could engineer a space vehicle which folds four dimensional space/time and tunnels from one side to the other and move through it, you would be traveling faster than the speed of light without violating the speed limit.
As you are aware, we have always agreed on your first sentence. To be truthful, I had never tried to pinpoint the change from God's (dictated/revealed) viewpoint to man's -- as you have in your second one.
Your second sentence makes sense, too -- it is just new to me right now, yet I find no argument against it.
Bottom line: thank you, dear Sister, for another beautifully-presented insight!
I re-read Schroeder from time to time -- to see if his viewpoint has improved even further... ;-} And I recommend his writings...
Thanks for the recommendation about Gerald Schroeder. I just checked our library system, and there are four of his books available at various locations. I can order them up and have them sent to our local library! I sent the link from the system to my hubby, SirKit, and he's gonna let me know which ones to order up.

Kid Rock Meets Gucci
Did our eyes deceive us? Walking by Herald Square recently, we idly peered into Macy's windows, only to receive this cornea-scalding image: Maxim-brand bedding.
A week later, we returned to examine more closely. Though the block-long Maxim window display was ripped down in preparation for the upcoming Macy's Flower Show, the installation had been given a more permanent home up on the 6th floor, sandwiched between Charter Club and DKNY linens. A trio of beds showcased Maxim's polyester/cotton bedding, all in acceptable straight-male prints: variegated stripes of dark sage, muddy brown, and black; a pale taupe shade with subtle circle embroidery. Supposedly guys don't like prints, but they do like Maxim. Above two of the beds were TVs flashing clips of celebrities like Jaime Fox and The Rock at Maxim parties; a graph charting the magazine's success; and boasts of the publication's groundbreaking, investigative journalism, with a Maxim magazine article on Baghdad as evidence. All this visual stimulation, boys, and you may just forget you're buying a duvet cover with matching shams.
Turns out Maxim Living bedding is not only the random whimsy of some execs high up in the Dennis Publishing ether, but a branding dream played out over several years. The bedding debuted last year; Maxim Living home and entertainment furniture, two years ago. Add to this the Maxim radio station on Sirius Satellite and the hair-color line for men. This summer in Miami's South Beach, the company will break ground on a new venture with nightlife mogul Rande Gerber: Maxim Lounge, a bar whose style will be, and we quote directly from the press release, "Kid Rock meets Gucci." The plans are to role out more clubs in other major U.S. cities over the next two years.
But at least for now, the big push is the Maxim Living's home-furnishings empire: barware, TV stands, office desks, linens. With the tagline "put some love in that shack," the company makes no bones about its not-so-subtle advertising: Buy our hamper, get laid. Here is the Maxim Living description of the bar-tools set: "This smart, seven-piece stainless steel cocktail set includes a strainer, stirrer, spoon . . . iced tongs. No, not iced thongs. Although now that you mention it, that might make for an interesting addition." For a comforter: "You may not be ready to hand her that two-karat stone just yet, but you can still knock her socks off (and maybe even more than that!) with this sporty Diamond pattern bed cover." We'd give you more, but must pause for a second to readjust our sequoia-sized penis.
Nowhere in these photos of audio towers and perfectly-made beds on Maxim Living's site or those of its participating retailers (Macy's, Circuit City, Target) do we see the publication's moneymaking visuals, its lusty cash cows: Why isn't a Jessica Alba doppelgänger with lust in her eyes and polyester/cotton blends on her brain rolling around on those macho-man sheets? Where are the boobs? Shouldn't there be some titties chilling on the TV desk stand, perhaps squooshed into a cocktail shaker? Our guess is that selling to every Macy's and Circuit City across America required the Dennis Publishing honchos to reign it in. Perhaps with Maxim's upcoming extension into food, there will be a magical mixing of breasts and BBQ sauce, at least in the magazine's print ads. A Survivor flunkee/Maxim covergirl clutching a bearskin rug in one hand and a jar of Maxim's extra-extra-chunky salsa in another?

Tending to the flock - Organic best practice
As well as their own flocks, Rachel explains how they rear for other farms. "We work on a rotation, also rearing for 2 other farms. We need to be well organised and help comes from trusted partners such as Hatchery Joice and Hill and Colin Gravatt from Humphrey Feeds, who feed all our birds. Our pullets consistently exceed the targets set by the breeder, and nutrition plays a vital role.""We will start the pullets on a high energy chick starter crumb" explains Mr Gravatt, Humphrey Feeds Poultry Specialist . "We aim to give the pullets the required energy to ensure early skeletal development and growth. I visit the farm on a regular basis to weigh the birds, monitor their progress and discuss any changes that need implementing. We will make small and gradual changes to the diet as and when required. Rachel understands that a well reared bird will have significantly improved productivity in lay." Low mortality and a reduced disease burden are also areas of which the farm can be very proud. "Our tailored vaccination programme is vital, as our use of antibiotics is limited on the organic system," continues Rachel. "We pay close attention to biosecurity, especially during the first 3-4 weeks of rear. Rearing our own birds on site means there are fewer concerns about bringing in outside disease challenges. We try and do everything we can to encourage the birds natural immunity."Light Control
Soil Association regulations state that pullets should have access to the range from 12 weeks, however, as Rachel explains, the policy at Lawn Farm has always been to let the birds out between 8 – 10 weeks, "we designed the rearing sheds to ensure easy access to the range. We give the crop every opportunity to go outside so they are used to that environment; this helps the transition from rear to lay and makes for a healthy, stress free and more productive flock." Mr Gravatt agrees. "In rear you are preparing the flock for the demands of lay – therefore, the sooner certain elements are introduced the better. As with feed, it's about small, well planned step changes." The ethos for Lawn Farm is to encourage natural bird behaviour – this applies to light control, an area often overlooked says Mr Gravatt. "The aim in rear is to mimic the natural light hours the birds will receive when they come into lay – this of course varies depending on the time of year. Our focus is on developing a routine for the birds and light management is an important component. The flock know when to wake up, when to feed and more importantly when to come back into the house at dusk. As a general rule we aim to give the birds 10 hours of light per day at 16 weeks."Rachel uses green lighting in the rearing units (see image) to mimic the colour of natural tree cover. "Using green lighting is uncommon, but we find it to be an effective tool to help keep the pullets calm, reduce aggressive behaviour and any subsequent feather pecking. "I know many organic producers have raised concerns of losing light control if new EU legislation comes into effect that states all organic pullets must have access to the range - however in our experience, with our set up and facilities and with our small flock sizes, it does work for us."Dark Brooding
Lawn Farm uses an innovative dark brooding system. "The farm first introduced a dark brooder on a trial basis with just 500 birds, working alongside Bristol University. I was incredibly happy with the results and found it to be a very effective management technique. The birds are more even, less stressed with better feather cover."Lawn Farm has since installed more dark brooders across both rearing units. The system uses tube heaters on the underside of a raised platform, suspended by chains hanging from the ceiling. "The brooders mean we don't need to heat the whole house, which can result in lethargy and loss of appetite. We only heat the area directly under the brooder, to mimic a natural 'mother hen' scenario. The pullets can leave from under the platform whenever they choose and are more alert, happy and active as a result. We also play the radio (normally Classic FM) in the rearing sheds, which helps to keep me calm, as well as the birds!" When the birds reach 16 weeks they only have a short distance to travel to the laying sheds. "We load the birds early in the morning and by late morning they are happily exploring their new surroundings! We see little change in body weight during this transition. We never mix pullets from the two separate rearing units; 2000 go into one laying shed and 2000 into another," says Rachel."Everything we do is about high welfare and preparing the birds for lay; by ensuring an established routine, mimicking natural behaviours, creating a stress free and comfortable environment with no sudden surprises!"In Lay
Lawn Farm has two houses, each with 2000 birds, "Following depopulation in an organic system we have to move the poultry house to another part of the field to allow the land to rest – therefore our stocking density is 500 birds/hectare. We keep Alpacas on the range - they are hardy, a good buddy animal, easy to manage and great for fox control," says Rachel.
The farm has seen excellent productivity in recent flocks. The aim is to produce a high quality medium to large egg. "Rachel has kept birds in lay past 72 weeks, although shell quality can sometimes deteriorate," says Mr Gravatt. "We use our tailored diet programme to control egg size and keep shell quality high." Lawn Farm eggs are sold via Stonegate into Waitrose, with Rachel acting as an ambassador for the organic sector. "I carry out consultancy work at all stages of the supply chain, offering advice and sharing best practice. It is important that consumers understand why they pay more for organic eggs. Balancing supply and demand in the organic sector is always an ongoing issue. I am aware of the recent reports about a shortage of organic eggs in certain supermarkets, however my focus is on the areas of the business I can control; bird welfare, egg quality and farm productivity." "I care passionately about employing a high welfare system that is also kinder to the environment. I spend time with the birds, walking inside the shed and on the range. We have fully beaked birds with minimal feather pecking and no cannibalism. I can understand the advantages of beak tipping in larger commercial flocks – but thankfully it is not a problem we have encountered."The organic sector has seen many challenges, and impending EU legislation suggests there will be more challenges to come. "Rather than be daunted by these changes, I try to be on the front foot by instigating new ideas and on-farm techniques," concludes Rachel. "We have open communication with organisations such as BFREPA, Freedom Foods, Waitrose, Compassion in World Farming, Humphrey Feeds and the Soil Association to find ways to overcome these challenges without compromising productivity and welfare."

Death of an ESL Program

My ex-boyfriend's sister in law let us drive her car. One night my ex-boyfriend was driving and made a left turn on yield and we were hit. He was drunk so I took the blame. I got a ticket and found guilty of failure to yield left turn. A year later I get a bill from a law firm of about $19,000. The vehicle we were driving was uninsured and they are coming after me for the money. At first I made three payments of $100, but now after not being with him I decided I don't want to pay. How can I get out of this?
Litigation Lawyer
You never should have accepted blame. You should have consulted an attorney at the outset. A law firm cannot just bill you. Did they take a judgment against you? Did you own any vehicle which you had insurance on that could provide coverage? Go buy an hour of an attorneys time to explore your options, bring all the paperwork you have with you.
This response does not create a lawyer client relationship. Each case is determined on its specific facts and this reply is intended for a general audience and facts particular to your case may affect the answer. Consult with an attorney in person for specific answers to your questions.
Car / Auto Accident Lawyer
The short answer is yes, you are going to owe the money because of your own foolishness in taking the blame. The longer answer is that you also likely committed a crime when you lied to the police to cover up his crime. You should consult with an experienced criminal attorney in your area. My sense is that you made what will turn out to be a very expensive mistake. Also, if you don't pay your own drivers license will likely be suspended in Virginia
Ben Glass is licensed in Virginia. He offers a number of free consumer book downloads at his site for information purposes only. You should consult an experienced, board certified attorney in your area. Obviously, no attorney client relationship is formed by participating in Avvo.
Personal Injury Lawyer
It is highly unlikely that you will get out of this scenario in any way that is favorable to you. You lied yourself into this debt, and can not now come forward to claim it was not you who was driving. Additionally, by making whatever payments you did make, likely done without the benefit of first consulting an attorney, your action in doing so can be arguably deemed an "admission against interest [by conduct], to wit, that it was you who was driving and it was you who caused the accident, should you now attempt to litigate these issues. Your perjury, even if made in the name of love, brings to mind the old adage: "you shall reap what you sow".
Personal Injury Lawyer
Have a local lawyer in your state try to negotiate this amount down, and get you on a payment plan that you can live with.
Car / Auto Accident Lawyer
In most states if you are in an accident and at fault, unknowingly driving without insurance does not alleviate responsibility. Left turns accross oncoming traffic must yield the right of way with the exception of a traffic light or signal giving the right of way. The oncoming car will submit both an uninsured motorist injury claim and property claim to their own insurance carrier. The carrier then proceeds against the uninsured driver personally and in some cases the vehicle owner to recoup the money paid out on the claim. Call a local attorney. This is not a case where you can afford not to call.

Before Galileo: The Birth of Modern Science in Medieval EuropeHistories of modern science often begin with the heroic battle between Galileo and the Catholic Church, which ignited the Scientific Revolution and gave way to the world-changing discoveries of Isaac Newton.

Comment I can't tell if you're trolling or not... (Score 1) 1140
Because I know there are tens of millions, if not at least a hundred million Americans, that believe your statement sincerely. I even have a few family members that have espoused such sentiments. And so I will reply accordingly.
We Americans have been bred to honor and respect property rights. It is ingrained so deeply, even so far as our honorable Constitution itself, that the hard-working-man's "honest wages" are as sanctimonious as Holy Communion in the eyes of the red, white, and blue. So, no matter how absurd and adulterous ones income, I understand that taking money from those that "work hard" to distribute among those that "hardly work" is no different than the priest taking a piss into the chalice as his way of blessing the wine.
I get it. Really, I do.
But I just have one question for you: Are you OK with 20 people in our nation controlling more wealth than one hundred and fifty five million? Are you -really- OK with this? Because that's where our continued ignorance and/or unwillingness has gotten us. Your bull-headedness is putting the ridiculous wealth of 20 individuals in our nation ahead of the general welfare of 155 million. In any other nation throughout the course of human history, this level of wealth unbalance has instigated violent revolt and revolution among the masses. And it's only a matter of time before it happens here, as long as people like you continue to believe what you've just said.

About Us
Our philosophy is that in order for children to be successful in the twenty-first century global society, each community needs schools that focuses on the development of the whole child; it is not enough to teach children to give them the tools but to teach them to be inquisitive about what the tools are used for and in relation to what and in what context. These are the tenets of International Baccalaureate Primary Years Program (IBPYP) and the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Program (IBMYP), which have been developed by incorporating the best educational practices from around the world. The curricular premise consist of incorporating thematic, inquiry-based units of instruction which focus on structured inquiry methods that promote higher-level questioning and global thinking, encouraging a child's natural curiosity.

Superintendent's Message
Alta Public Schools offers a charter experience unlike any other. Teacher training goes beyond that of typical public schools, which allows Alta schools to go above and beyond the standard approaches to the curriculum. With the International Baccalaureate Programs offered at Alta Schools, students far exceed the "normal" expectations of the public school.
Our Elementary school, Academia Moderna, is the top performing International Baccalaureate Primary Years Program school in all of Los Angeles County. Academia Moderna averaged a 34 point growth per year in API since it opened 6 years ago and has continued to grow extensively through these last two years based on internal benchmarks. This is truly one of the finest charters in South Los Angeles.
Prepa Tec begins its third year of operation and is poised to submit its application for full authorization to the International Baccalaureate Organization this Spring. Prepa is too young to have any official API scores, but the internal benchmarks over the last two years has shown great growth throughout both years, continuing the success of Alta Schools. Prepa Tec also offers afterschool opportunities in Sports and teacher designed, educationally based, clubs that have proven both popular and successful. The success of Prepa Tec has accounted for a five fold increase in enrollment since year one.
Prepa Tech High School is scheduled to open for the 2016-2017 school year and will continue the International Baccalaureate experience right up to college.
Parent involvement at Alta schools continues to grow exponentially. People like to be part of a winning team and that's what we have at Alta Public Schools. If you're already in the Alta family, congratulations on your excellent choice. If you are thinking about enrolling at Alta Public Schools, we highly encourage you to make that leap of faith and come join the family. You'll be happy you did!
