Hello SunBurn community!
Over the past year we've quietly worked on several awesome new advancements to the SunBurn Game Engine - and now, at long last, we're ready to start announcing the details!
Starting with the upcoming SunBurn 2.1 the SunBurn Game Engine is now platform independent - it no longer relies on XNA (or any single api) to run games. Instead your games can deploy and run on any number of target platforms and devices.
With this SunBurn 2.1 adds support for a variety of new frameworks like DirectX 11+ and WinRT, which allow you to release games on the latest Windows devices (including WinRT devices).
Which device OS's are already supported by SunBurn 2.1:
And of course SunBurn 2.1 is a free update, like all of the updates we release!
SunBurn Game Engine licensees will gain access to the SunBurn 2.1 update before the public beta. Which means the best way to get early access is to join the SunBurn developer ranks!
SunBurn now includes its own platform layer that looks similar to XNA and presents game developers with the same clean and easy to use api regardless of the underlying device / OS.
Under the hood the platform layer could be running XNA, DirectX, WinRT, or any future supported frameworks, but this is all transparent to the game and game developer.
Here are some details based on questions we've been asked:
Will my existing game code work in 2.1?
Yes, the SunBurn platform api is nearly identical to XNA and for most classes / methods it's a drop-in replacement.
Do I have to learn a new api?
No, as mentioned above the api is very similar to XNA, so there's not much to learn.
Can I access the underlying OS framework (like DirectX 11+, ...)?
Yes! The SunBurn platform api exposes the underlying OS framework (XNA, DirectX, …), which allows you to create platform specific features for games and take advantage of device specific features.
There is a lot more info to come and many new features to introduce, so stay tuned for more announcements!
So which devices would you like to see SunBurn support next? Let us know!
-John Kabus
Most Excellent!
In terms of platforms, I would say iOS next, if for no other reason than it being the biggest established market for games to be released on.
After that then Mac & Linux. I don't know what the revenue opportunity is on Mac and Linux but they are pretty important when it comes to getting a game included in a Humble Bundle & we need to see some SunBurn games in those Bundles!
Awesome! I'm glad to see that I'll be able to use this to make games for the Windows Store for both Windows Rt and Windows Phone 8! Great job you guys! Also when is the update expected to be released?
This is beyond wonderful. Great job, you guys! Another thing for me to get excited about, as if the upcoming W8 and WP8 launches aren't enough.
That sounds really nice guys! :)
Do you think it will be possible to develop for the PSVita?
Sweet! :D
I would really like to see some sort of built in particle engine.
So how soon can we see this? My PreOrder Surface gets here friday!!
Great stuff John!
I wondered how you worked out the shader/effect question?
Did you create your own shader compiler?
Use an existing abstraction (such as MonoGame's)?
Decide to not manage this side of things letting developers creating their platform specific shaders?
or any other innovative approach you may had?
Hello John,
I have a question about SunBurn Engine with Windows 8.
I am going to upgrade my OS to Windows 8 next week, and install Visual Studio 2012.
1) Will XNA still be available for Visual Studio 2012 and Windows 8 to use with SunBurn?
2) Do you foresee any problems that I would have developing for the XBox 360?
XNA is not on windows 8. I have not tried using sunburn yet in win8, I still have a drive with win7 for XNA etc. You can use MonoGame. I kind of doubt it will work with Sunburn but who knows I have not tried it. This looks like it will be our solution though for the Windows 8 no XNA problem. This will be especially great since it will run on RT and build for the windows store.
This is very cool! I'll give this a try right now.
So i was looking at forms about XNA on Windows 8, and your pretty much right about it not working. Their are a couple people that came up with a work-a-round to get it to build, but it isn't supported and I don't feel comfortable hacking it to get it to work. I think i am going to stick with Windows 7. Thanks
Hi guys, thanks for the awesome feedback!
With the new platform api all devices / os's are possible, we only need to develop the platform "driver", which is fairly lightweight.
We'll release more info shortly about the release timeframe!
@Philippe, the platform api supports DirectX FX files, and compiles into effect objects similar to XNA.
There are only a couple of differences: techniques can only be single pass, and cannot contain device state changes (like blending and culling order).
Other than that standard fx2.0 files compile to DirectX 11+. And you can use "#if DX11" blocks to include newer code unique to ps4.0 / vs4.0 and up. :)
@Ryan, SunBurn 2.0 and XNA 4.0 already work great on Windows 8 *Desktop*. We use Win8 here on a number of dev pc's. :)
The upcoming update adds support for creating Metro / Modern apps sold through the Win8 marketplace.
Let me know if this helps!
While we are at it, I'm quite interested in Android development :)
so wait will the new upadate be compatible to XNA? pr will sunburn be its own engine?
Ok John for the DirectX11 effect system but how will you handle other API such as OpenGL when you'll target other platforms?
This sound like a life saver. I was really starting to get the feeling MS shanked me in the back. I'm pretty sure the next release will not support XNA anymore, as they are not allowing W8 to be a target. The current WP7.5 app support is a last supper.
I find it really strange MS is killing XNA off like this, without having a viable alternative them self's. I can program C++, but not anywhere near as good as C#, plus all the knowledge and investments in XNA would be thrown out of the window.
Again, thanks for having our backs!
Very excited about this.
Is it too much to ask remove that 75 bone limit? Or am i asking too much? :)
I've been busy and just noticed this post. How exciting! =) Awesome work, everyone!
This is great news, I can't wait to try it out!
Looking forward to iOS platform support if at all possible. And C# if at all possible. Thanks!
I have a license and am very eager to try this...when o when !!
Will buy license after this release is out :)
I can't wait for this to come out. Ever since I upgraded my computer to Windows 8 I haven't been able to get my XNA code to compile... I put my project on the back burner until this comes out, but I'll probably look into workarounds soon.
@JohnK: Do you guys have a ETA on when you will start releasing BETA's to the community?
I would also like to know a time frame as to when we can expect this to start trickling out.
I was also really disappointed in the Windows 8 drop of XNA. Shocked, would be a more appropriate description of my feelings, I suppose. But this definitely makes me feel better. I hope the beta releases before the end of the year for testing! =)
This is great. Cheers! As far as other platforms...I think you would continue to grow your niche if you next targeted Blackberry and similar devices.
Awesome! My vote is for Mac OSX support.
So wait did I see a game/demo running on the surface tablet? When do we get our grubby little hands on this?
@JohnK: When can I get my grubby little hands on it? :)
Will ARM WinRT devices be part of the initial release as well?
Can't wait for check this new release of sunburn, it looks amazing!!!!
when will be 2.1 released? any eta's?
Bob, your killin me... How about a New Year's scrap of news? :)
Definitely. It's been a couple of months since the initial announcement. New Year's update, Bob? =)
I am also very eager to try it out. Even a date for the date of the announcing of the release date would satiate me for a while. Just something to let us know the update is still going to happen!
It would be nice to hear a progress update. What are some problems that you have been running into? Any set-backs? New features? Just feed us something please.
Greetings, new pro license holder here.
I bought in due to the advert about version 2.1, I'm greatly looking forward to this upcoming release.
I'm sitting here on my Win8 development box (VS2012), just realizing that I can't take advantage of the existing version that I just bought!!
All is good though, I have a Win7 Box (my gaming specific box) that I can pollute with VS2010, XNA and such.
An update would be nice, to at least know there's someone on the other end of this listening!
How are we looking on timescales for this? I've build a win 8/vs 2012 machine and I don't really want to install VS 2010 if it's coming out in the next few weeks.
Which versions of Visual Studio will this support? Will it work with existing 3rd party plugins? Is it available for download yet?
Awesome job guys :D
This is so awesome! You guys have really seriously stepped it up. Good job, good job.
You guys have just moved to the top of my list of possible engines for a followup project. ;)
Is there an ETA on when 2.1 will be available?
Would also love a (very rough) ETA; on the verge of starting a new project. Is it worth waiting to save any porting hassle?
Any update on when this will be released?
For XNA 4.0 Refresh on Windows 8, just install Games for Windows Live first. It bundles an old version, but skips install of it if it finds a newer version.
You'll still need Visual Studio 2010 for Xbox.

I'm worried because I can't get it to work on Visual Studio 2012. XNA can't run on 64 bit, and is considered End of Life. Do you have any recommendations for developing with this engine using modern O/S and modern IDE?
Or do I need to install windows 7 on 32 bit, and run vstudio 2008?
Manually installed prerequisites and is working on 2012 now. But just re-remembered that sunburn doesn't do 64 bit. Man I had really hoped that changed by now!!!
Welp, will see what I can do in 32. Might have to look at migrating to something else soon, which makes me sad because I really like this engine.
Good day to you! :)

If you missed the opportunity to check out plans for Multnomah County's new Health Department building last month, now's your chance to catch up.
The architects in charge of designing the $46 million headquarters will present their plans to the public a second time Wednesday morning, during a meeting of the Old Town Chinatown Community Association.
The meeting starts at 11:30 a.m. at Central City Concern, 232 N.W. 6th Ave.
Project leaders have been making the rounds to stakeholder groups in anticipation of an April 2015 groundbreaking. They showed off detailed sketches of its layout during a public open house last month.
The boxy, bright structure will occupy a half-block of land between Bud Clark Commons and Union Station in Old Town/Chinatown. It will include 96,000 square feet of space for offices, clinics and a pharmacy. The 350 employees working there are expected to serve about 150 clients each day.
The new headquarters will replace the Health Department's current space in the Gladys McCoy Building just a few blocks away in Downtown Portland. Engineers estimate the 91-year-old McCoy Building, which originally housed a department store, needs $28 million in upgrades.
If all goes according to plan, the new headquarters could open in the fall of 2016.
County officials have yet to announce what will happen to the McCoy Building once the Health Department moves out.
What would you like to see in the new headquarters? Have you been inside the McCoy Building? Do you think it's worth saving?

It's is somewhat Smiler to another Forum Question, But was no getting any responses, so I thought I rephrase it.
Could any one tell me if MIT, Cornell,Upenn,NYU expects, applicant's with a learn disability. I have ADD. I have take the SAT II: Chem. (800) MATHcII (800) Bio (800) Writing (800). My GPA is 3.32.I have many EC's. My High School transcript is very, very, very bad, Because I have just resonantly was diagnosed with ADD and can easily prove my diagnoses.
Second I was told no to mention ADD by many people in my application, because it is overused and could hurt me in admission process. Does MIT have a screening process that filters out the have form the have not?
I know that is not an excuse, but as you know or don't know, ADD makes it very, very hard for a person to concentrate and focus. Will having ADD affect my application at all, in other words will my application matched against the people who don't have any learn disability and the cream of the crop or will it be judged alone or other people, who present a similar case?
Lastly, could you tell me if my application will me competitive, even thaw I don't meet the minimum GPA required to be a competitive (3.5 for MIT don't know for the others) or tell me what are my chances on a 1-10 scale.
My EC's
Play the piano
Mcse (Microsoft certified system engineer)
MCP (Microsoft certified Professional)
Mcsa (Microsoft certified system Administrator)
CCNP (Cisco certified network Professional)
CCNA (Cisco certified network Associate)
CCIE (Cisco certified internetwork Expert)
A very hard certification only 5000 in the whole word (CCIE). I have only passed the written exam.
Science Club
Received an Academic Scholarship
Tutored at my college: General Chemistry 2.
Volunteered at hospital= 90 hours
I don't know if work count as an EC, I have worked as a cashier, also at McDonnell's and as Store manager and Van Driver.
One more thing if you are wondering how I got the high SAT II scores, well simple I took them after I got on my med.'s. Also those certifications.

|By J2kplus (J2kplus) on Tuesday, September 02, 2003 - 05:53 pm: Edit
Thanks: Tingtingclin
I am currently at NYIT. To get these certification you can either go to a certified Computer school or a college, thaw all most no college offer these certifications. Most technical school are very good at teaching IT (Information Technology) and then if you feel up to it you can schedule the exam (Mcse is up to 8 tests) and if you pass them, then you get your certification. Do you thing I could get in MIT with a Computer Sciences or Chemical Engineering Major, because I am a Pre med. Student. If you are wondering why I got these certifications, because of economic reasons. I didn't want to live in minim wage. Thanks again

You were told not to mention your disability because it was overused? That just speaks to flaws in the advising and the application process. What if being tied to a board and smacked with a calf's leg was overused? Would that make it any easier to write your english essays? Just be honest in your essay, heartfelt, if possible, and open about your unique challenges and experiences, and you can be sure that your ADD stands out from other people's ADD. If your mentality about overusing the ADD is anything like your transfer mentality, though, (that is to say, highly tactical and with the focus placed more on marketing than on substance), you might want to reevaluate your reasons for wanting to transfer. After all, it's about more than just labeling, whether it's a disorder or a school.
Chew on that, Jahoosaphat!

After one of the most bizarre meetings in recent New Orleans City Council history, members return to work today, needing to find a way to pick up the pieces and get back to the business of legislating. The most immediate need is to re-establish a sense of collegiality after the two black members walked out of Thursday's meeting, leaving the council without a quorum.
Cynthia Hedge-Morrell and Jon Johnson picked up their papers and left after the council failed to vote to put their proposed City Charter amendment -- changing the way the council's two at-large members are elected -- on the Nov. 6 ballot. But their unexpected departure was just one of several strange events before and during Thursday's meeting.
First was Councilwoman Stacy Head's decision to be sworn in to the at-large seat she won April 21 so quickly that she forfeited her right to seek a possible second full four-year term in 2018 -- a right she would have retained if she had waited less than a week to move from her District B seat to the citywide post.
By moving so quickly, Head also left the District B seat vacant for Thursday's meeting. Errol George, the man she nominated to succeed her on an interim basis, was out of town for a meeting he had committed to attend long before she picked him to fill the council vacancy for the next six or seven months. Also strange was that George, though apparently a resident of District B for several years, had never voted in that district or changed his registration from his parents' address in District E until Head decided to recommend him for her seat.
Then came Thursday's meeting, which brought a full quota of surprises.
Doubt over Tulane stadium
The day's first big controversy involved a zoning proposal that could delay or force changes in Tulane University's plans for a new on-campus football stadium. Although Tulane is often seen as the ultimate symbol of the city's so-called white Uptown establishment, the only council members to side with it on a 4-2 vote were Hedge-Morrell and Johnson, black members representing the two districts farthest from the Tulane campus.
The next major dispute was the proposed charter amendment, which prompted a heated disagreement about a minor change in election procedures, leading to a pair of 3-3 votes that blocked any action. Although no one has yet offered any compelling arguments against splitting up the two at-large seats on the ballot, some council members continue to insist on more public discussion of an idea that almost no one seems to oppose.
The "elephant in the room" that some council members occasionally mentioned during the debate is race. The pressure for the charter change comes mainly from African-Americans, who think the change could improve their chances of winning back one of the two at-large seats. Whether it really would have that effect is debatable.
The three white council members who voted against approving the proposal Thursday cited a need for more public hearings and perhaps consideration of far more sweeping changes in voting procedures. They promised they would vote on the at-large change by June 21, but by appearing to drag their feet on that simple proposal, they had to know they were exacerbating a racial divide just days after the end of the racially divisive race in which Head defeated Cynthia Willard-Lewis for one of the at-large seats.
'Totally frustrated'
Apparently, no one foresaw that Hedge-Morrell and Johnson would respond by walking out. When she realized they had left, President Jackie Clarkson said: "They can't walk out of a meeting and cost a quorum. That's absurd."
But they were gone, and so was the council's quorum -- which led to Thursday's final bizarre twist. Instead of calling it a day, the four remaining members continued meeting for another hour, even though the numerous 4-0 votes they took are legally meaningless and will have to be redone whenever the council is able to muster a quorum for another meeting.
Until such a meeting takes place and the council can officially select George as the interim District B member, he cannot be sworn into office. Some members, it seems, thought that was the real reason for Hedge-Morrell and Johnson's walkout: to block George's appointment, though why was unclear.
Hedge-Morrell, however, said she left because she was "totally frustrated by the lack of respect the other council members displayed toward Councilman Johnson, me and the voters we represent, in their obvious attempt to marginalize us."
The council has been through bitter battles before and recovered, and no doubt it will do so again this time. One sign of whether tempers have cooled and a spirit of cooperation re-established will be whether, and how soon, a special meeting is called to make legal all the decisions provisionally taken in the final hour of Thursday's meeting.
Clarkson said she had a pleasant phone conversation with Hedge-Morrell after Thursday's meeting, but as of late Friday afternoon there was no agreement on holding a special meeting.

Cubs claim OF Julio Borbon from Texas
(Photo by Rob Tringall/Getty)
The Cubs claimed outfielder Julio Borbon off waivers from the Texas Rangers Friday. Infielder Alberto Gonzalez has been designated for assignment to clear room on the 40-man roster.
Borbon, 27, is a career .283 hitter (194-for-685) with 16 doubles, seven triples, seven home runs and 73 RBI in 216 games covering parts of four seasons with the Rangers. The left-hander also has 40 stolen bases and 101 runs scored. Borbon has seen most of his major league action in center field, where he has played 169 games, but he's versatile enough to play any outfield spot.
The six-foot, 195-pound former first-round draft choice made his major league debut as a 23-year-old in 2009 and batted .312 (49-for-157) with 19 stolen bases and a .376 on-base percentage in 46 games with the Rangers. He played in a career-high 137 games with Texas in 2010, batting .276 (121-for-438) with 60 runs scored, 11 doubles, four triples and 15 stolen bases, before splitting the 2011 campaign between Texas and Triple-A Round Rock.
The Starkville, Miss., native spent the entire 2012 campaign with Round Rock, where he batted .304 (162-for-533) with 23 doubles, eight triples, 10 home runs, 78 runs scored and 20 stolen bases in 133 games. In 2013, he hit .317 (19-for-60) in 32 games with the Rangers during Spring Training and was hitless in one at-bat during the regular season before being designated for assignment on April 9.
Gonzalez batted .217 (5-for-23) in 11 games for the Cubs this season.

The Grand Rapids Griffins have traded away their main enforcer, sending dedicated scrapper Adam Keefe to the San Antonio Rampage for Tyler Redenbach:
January 29, Griffinshockey.com: The Grand Rapids Griffins on Tuesday traded right wing Adam Keefe to the AHL's San Antonio Rampage in exchange for the loan of center Tyler Redenbach from the NHL's Phoenix Coyotes.
Redenbach, 23, has totaled 84 points (32-52--84) in 127 AHL games with Providence and San Antonio during his three-year career. He has registered one assist in six games with the Rampage this season, spending the majority of the campaign with the Central Hockey League's Arizona Sundogs. One of the CHL's top players, he ranks second on the circuit with 66 points (tied) and 48 assists in just 31 games and had a league-high 21-game point streak earlier this season.
In the CHL All-Star Game on Jan. 16, Redenbach logged a game-high six points (1-5--6) to lead the Southern Conference to an 11-6 win over the Northern Conference.
During his 2005-06 rookie season with Providence, Redenbach was voted the Bruins' rookie of the year after leading the club in games played (78) and plus-minus (+20) and placing third in scoring (26-32--58). Phoenix's first choice, 77th overall, in the 2003 NHL Entry Draft, he led the Western Hockey League in 2003-04 with 105 points and 74 assists for Swift Current, earning WHL Second Team All-Star honors.
Keefe, 23, appeared in 32 games with the Griffins this season, netting one goal and racking up a team-high 124 penalty minutes. In parts of two seasons with Grand Rapids, he totaled four points (1-3--4) and 221 PIM in 48 games.
Redenbach never really lived up to that 104-point season, but he's obviously got loads of scoring potential, while Keefe's role is pretty much self-explanatory.
Your humble blogger is just attempting to read tea leaves, but it's entirely possible that McCarty's slated to play the balance of the AHL season with the Griffins.
The Macomb Daily's Bruce MacLeod put McCarty's signing with Grand Rapids (again, pending NHL/AHL approval) in proper perspective:
January 29, RedWingsCorner: One important point here. Framing this as McCarty moving one step closer to being a Red Wing is wrong. This is the start of McCarty's audition for Detroit and the rest of the NHL. Flint was his training camp.
It's the very start. Playing for the Griffins is McCarty's exhibition season, and he will very literally be playing on a "professional try-out contract." He may attract enough attention to get an NHL job, but, especially after an extremely difficult 06-07 season, he's just as likely to be in Grand Rapids when the playoffs roll around, attempting to earn an NHL training camp try-out next season. He's got to change the minds of both the Wings' management and the NHL's 29 other GM's, and that's going to take a lot of work and an extended period of time.

WENONAH — The borough's former police chief has come forward to further explain his departure from the force, calling it an "amicable" split.
The former NYPD officer started in Wenonah in January 2013, and council voted unanimously to remove him early this spring. Harrison had been in training at the Atlantic County Police Academy, but said when he left the program, council had no choice but to let him go.
The problems began almost immediately upon Harrison's hiring. Wenonah planned to obtain a waiver for regulations that require new police chiefs to be promoted from within the departments where they are currently employed.
To obtain the waiver, the state required Harrison to go through a police training program.
"We were well aware that I would need a New Jersey state certification and were of the belief that we would file a waiver and I would attend some classes at the Gloucester County police academy," he said.
The Office of the Attorney General, however, told him he would need to start training from the very beginning and enroll in an academy outside of Gloucester County.
"I simply decided that boot-camp style police academy wasn't for me," Harrison said. "Not that it was beneath me. I didn't want to have to do it again."
Harrison was unsure why he had to start over again, or why he had to attend Atlantic County's academy. He said, however, that it had been his choice to leave training.
"They [the Attorney General's Office] were really evasive," he said.
The state did not return requests for comment. Atlantic County College declined to comment, citing enrollee confidentiality.
"I have no ill will toward Wenonah," Harrison said. "They're great people."
Mayor Tommy Lombardo said he and members of borough council had been happy with Harrison's performance.
"Joe did a terrific job," said Lombardo. "He hit the ground running and had some great initiatives."
Lombardo declined to elaborate on Harrison's departure, except to say he could no longer fulfill the conditions of his employment.
"There were factors that were out of our control," he said. "He's no longer with us, but he did a great job for us."

ENFIELD– A large contribution from the LEGO Children's Fund will make it possible for the Rotary Club of Enfield, Conn., to build an accessible playground and park.
LEGO recently donated $250,000 toward the project, which was an idea brought forward by the Rotary Club's former president, Lindsey Weber, in 2009.
"At the time, I was pregnant with my first child. I now have two young children, and I know many families who go to Somers or Longmeadow to play at these playgrounds because we do not have one in town," she said.
Weber said the playground and the surrounding park are intended to bring families together in an outdoor, healthy setting.
"So many kids spend their time indoors playing video games, and this will be a way for families to spend time together outside," she said.
Current Rotary President Michael Helechu said the project will hopefully be completed by this summer.
"We initially thought there would be a three to five year fundraising effort, but thanks to this major corporate donation, we will be able to put the playground in this summer," he said. "We will raise additional funds to enhance the park area, but this is the bulk of the money we will need."
Edward Palomba, chairman of the playground committee, said the playground will be built near the Enfield Public Library on Middle Road. It will include ramps for wheelchair accessibility and a rubberized ground. The playground will also include a pavilion with benches and picnic tables. The park will also be near existing softball fields.
"We're hoping families can take advantage of the library, the playground and the fields," he said.
Brian Specht, vice president of operations at LEGO, said the company's Children's Fund was created to help organizations that serve children.
"We feel we have an obligation as a company to give back to the community," Specht said. The LEGO headquarters has been in Enfield since 1975.
Specht said this is an exciting opportunity and is the largest visual contribution the company has made.
"We are looking forward to seeing the project move ahead," he said.
Weber said the playground will also be accessible to grandparents or other relatives who want to play with their children or grandchildren.
"Mostly people think of the children, but this will benefit entire families," she said.

Oswego, NY -- Emergency repairs are underway after winds from Hurricane Sandy blew the top layer of roof off the Oswego pumping station that serves Syracuse's suburbs, according to the Metropolitan Water Board.
The damage was reported around 7 p.m. Monday. A contractor patched the roof to stop leaks until the membrane can be repaired, said Holly Rosenthal, executive director of the water board.
Minimal water entered the pumping station, but did not impact operations, Rosenthal said. While there is no impact to customers, Rosenthal said the damage to the building was significant.
These photos were sent to Syracuse.com by Lisa Cory, of Middle Road, Oswego, this morning.
The membrane is shown dangling off the side of the building, located next to the State University College at Oswego campus.
The shoreline pumping station is first in a pipeline that brings fresh water into Onondaga County.

A 20-year-old Hoboken man was charged with heroin possession after police found him trespassing on Hoboken Housing Authority property yesterday evening, police reports said.
The man, of Church Towers, was arrested and charged with defiant trespass, possession of heroin, and possession of paraphernalia.
Police officers with Hoboken's Anti-Vice squad were on patrol at 6:09 p.m. when they saw the 20-year-old standing around at Third and Monroe streets, an area known for drug trafficking, reports said.
They then saw him walk into the rear entrance of the Housing Authority building on Jackson Street and leave the building by the same door.
When cops asked him if he lives in the building, the man first said that he was visiting his uncle and then changed his story and said his grandfather, but could not provide an address for either one, reports said.
Police arrested him on the charge of defiant trespass and then searched him, finding three wax paper envelopes of heroin and a straw used to smoke the drug -- leading to additional charges, reports said.

Three Sparts earn all-league honors
10 Bainbridge players are named to the All-Metro team.
It was a season of ups and downs for the Bainbridge girls soccer team.
They started the season off with a 4-0 win over their rival North Kitsap, but were plagued by inconsistent scoring throughout most of the season.
The Spartans turned it around at the end, allowing just two goals in their last eight games, including the playoffs, but couldnt make it out of the Metro League tournament.
For their efforts, 10 Spartans were named to the All-Metro team. Jackie Danzig was a first team selection, while Zena Hemmen, Allie Picha, Maureen Callahan and Lindsey Montoya were second team selections and Callie Tift and Molly Oshin were honorable mentions.
Three Spartans also made this years Kitsap News Group All-Kitsap team, as voted on by the sportswriters from the Bainbridge Review, the North Kitsap Herald, the Central Kitsap Reporter, the Bremerton Patriot and the Port Orchard Independent.
The starters:
Forward Brandi Hamre, Central Kitsap Arguably the Narrows Leagues best offensive player, the sophomore led the county with 17 goals and 14 assists, totaling 48 points for the Cougars.
Forward Cassie Brown, South Kitsap Led the Wolves in scoring with 11 goals and seven assists. The speedy captain can move the ball around nicely and can be tough when she needs to. Already signed with Southeast Missouri State.
Forward Shannon White, Olympic While she didnt pack the same scoring punch as teammate Liz Curry, White still scored seven goals while adding four assists, including a pair of goals after she experienced some knee problems.
Midfielder Alissa Russell, Central Kitsap Russell was a key part of the CK attack, selflessly helping create more opportunities for her teammates than for herself. Thats not to say she didnt find the back of the net plenty this year. Russell, using crafty footwork and precision passing, scored 11 goals and dished out 11 assists for 33 points.
Midfielder Erin Carpenter, South Kitsap In the middle of everything, the senior was solid and consistent, scoring eight goals while adding five assists for 21 total points. Her physical style of play opened the way for others to score.
Midfielder Stephanie Skelley, North Kitsap Norths fast and feisty field general, Skelley served as the holding midfielder for the Vikings until she was lost midway through the season due to an injury.
Defender Santerra Holler, South Kitsap The defensive captain of the Bridge Divisions best defense. Her vocal presence and physical play along with her leadership propelled the Wolves to the top of the division. Notched eight points offensively.
Defender Alana MacWhorter, Bainbridge An All-Metro first team selection, the senior co-captain and emotional leader of the team was one of the keys in a defense that allowed an average of just one goal per game.
Defender Amanda Clark, Klahowya The junior captain was instrumental in helping the Eagles through a playoff stretch that saw them win several one-goal games when it counted most as they finish ed 8-7-1 in the Nisqually League.
Defender Kayleigh Westermann, South Kitsap Tough defender who played wherever she was needed. Also an offensive threat, scoring four goals with five assists for 13 total points. With a tall and lanky body, she is tough to get around.
Goalkeeper CJ Balstad, South Kitsap Her numbers say it all: five goals allowed in 16 regular season games. The junior recorded 11 shutouts while no league or division opponent scored more than a single goal on her.
Coach Eric Bergeson, South Kitsap In what would turn out to be his final season as the Wolves coach, Bergeson took a team with just five seniors and produced an undefeated regular season and the Bridge Division title. Under his leadership, South made its fifth-straight trip to the state playoffs as well.
Honorable Mentions:
Pepper Fanua, Olympic The sophomore goalkeeper helped lead the Trojans back to the playoffs, allowing 23 goals in 17 games. Fanua is a strong all-around athlete and will play a key role in the Trojans future.
Kelsey Penn, South Kitsap Very quick off the first step, she outruns opponents to the ball and knows what to do with it once shes there. Penn scored six goals and dished out five assists as a junior.
Chanel Williams, Central Kitsap Williams came through in the clutch both offensively and defensively down the stretch for CK, using her speed and toughness to help see the Cougars into the playoffs yet again.
Naomi Abad, Bremerton The Knights leading scorer with six goals and three assists, Abad was the most consistent player on the Bremerton squad and provided much-needed leadership on a young squad as a sophomore.
Kelsey Krasas, North Kitsap While sharing time with fellow goalie Laural Patton, Krasas racked up numerous impressive saves. She stood solid, preserving five shutouts on the year.
Talia Speer, Klahowya A talented forward who is not afraid to get physical, Speer also proved a valuable defender down the stretch.
Lizzie Seligmann, Bainbridge Solid defender that was key in shutting down the opponents top scorer. This senior was an All-Metro first team selection as well.
Kylie Balstad, South Kitsap Scrappy midfielder who found a way to score when it was needed most. Tallied three goals and five assists as a sophomore and plays solid defense.
Meredith Johnson, Kings West The Warriors second-best goal scorer held an important leadership role in getting Kings West to a second-place SeaTac League finish.
Liz Curry, Olympic Among the league-leaders in scoring yet again, Curry racked up nine goals and eight assists for 26 points this season. And the Trojan forward is just a sophomore.
Sheree Kuehl, Klahowya A junior, Kuehl is part of a youth movement that should see Klahowya through continued improvement. One of the squads captains, Kuehl will be back in the middle for the Eagles next season.
Carlye Rice, Central Kitsap One of the Cougars most consistent defensive performers, Rice doesnt do anything too flashy, but always gets the job done. She isnt afraid to get physical and helped anchor one of the divisions better defenses.
Brenna Lander, North Kitsap Lander took on the role of North Kitsaps spark plug for the second half of the season, stepping up in the place of injured leaders. A junior, she scored 10 goals and hooked up eight assists.
Ashley Waplinger, Bainbridge Island This sophomore was part of a Spartan defense that clamped on to opposing players, shutting out some of the best goal scorers in the state down the stretch. She was an All-Metro first team selection as well.
Jennifer Smalley, Bremerton Smalley was instrumental in the turnaround of a previously lackluster Bremerton defense. The Knights surrendered just 35 goals this season compared to an average of 98 in the past two years.
Erin Ferderer, Kings West Second on the team in scoring as a defender, Ferderer helped lead the Warriors to a berth in the quad-district tournament and performed well against players from 4A and 3A schools in the non-conference season.

After a long day at work last week, I looked forward to relaxing for an hour in front of the television before I turned in for the night. Colonel and Sherlock seconded this plan of inaction, and climbed up on their cushions, eager to enjoy their favourite treat. I passed out the dehydrated sweet potatoes and gave them each a quick pat on the head. That's when our plans changed.
Colonel's floppy, golden-retriever ear filled my palm like a Clementine orange. Somehow he'd developed a hematoma.
To view previous columns, CLICK HERE.
Hematomas of the pinna, or ear flap, are quite common in dogs; something I see pretty near once a month, on average. They form when a blood vessel in the pinna ruptures, and the blood has no place to go. Blood and other fluids collect between the inner and outer layer of the pinna, separating the usually uniform ear flap into what is sometimes a painful swelling. Most of the time they form due to an ear infection and the head shaking and ear scratching that comes with the infection. But other forms of trauma can also result in a hematoma.
My Colonel's ear wasn't infected, but a good half of his usually flat pinna rolled like a little water balloon in my hand.
Oddly enough, Blondie, a beauty of a long-haired German shepherd, had just been in for auricular (ear) hematoma surgery that morning. Her gorgeous, erect ear, unlike Colonel's small swelling, bulged with fluid so that it completely closed over her ear canal. I had treated Blondie over the last month, draining the smaller hematoma each time, but with her ongoing allergies and the ear infections. surgery became a necessity.
In Blondie's case, with those gorgeous ears of hers, we really wanted to minimize excessive scarring and the risk of a disfigurement. I spent the better part of the morning working on her, careful to incise, drain, suture and medicate the damaged ear, determined it would continue to stand up straight and proud after healing. Only time will tell if I succeeded, and I worry her allergies might hamper my efforts.
In Colonel's case, although his hematoma proved minor, and smaller hematomas can actually reabsorb on their own, I decided to drain it. I happened to have a sterile needle and large syringe in my medical bag at home and Colonel's the stoic sort, so I got right to work and removed about an ounce of bloody fluid.
I have high hopes my old boy will stay off the operating table and that Blondie will heal good as new. In Colonel's case I don't have allergies to worry about. And in Blondie's, let's all keep our fingers crossed.
Thanks for reading. Adopt, neuter and spay… save a life every day.

Zimbabwean Lawyers Visit Law School, Discuss Making Democratic Constitution
Professor A. E. Dick Howard facilitated a conversation with a group of lawyers from Zimbabwe on constitution-making.
As Zimbabwe struggles with unrest and instability, lawyers seeking a better future for the African country recently turned to the Center for the Constitution at James Madison's Montpelier and the University of Virginia School of Law for support.
Representatives of the Law Society of Zimbabwe, the country's bar association, visited Virginia this month to engage in a series of discussions regarding the drafting of a new Zimbabwean constitution.
James Madison is known as the architect of the U.S. Constitution, and Montpelier's effort to help the Zimbabweans is part of a broader effort to engage the Center for the Constitution at an international level, said University of Virginia law professor A. E. Dick Howard, who serves as a board member at Montpelier.
"Zimbabwe is a very troubled country at this point, with a great deal of violence and intimidation and the excesses of one-party rule," Howard said. He said the Law Society of Zimbabwe hopes a new constitution will move the country "in the direction of constitutional democracy, a multi-party system, an open society, and the rule of law."
Howard, who directed Virginia's referendum campaign for adoption of the state's current constitution, has also worked with constitution-makers in post-communist Europe, Malawi and South Africa.
The African lawyers convened at the Law School and Montpelier for three days to discuss drafting a constitution and bill of rights, and how the Zimbabwean public could be engaged in the process. They reviewed parts of the draft and discussed problems of interpretation and application.
"I saw my role in the actual conversations as being one of the facilitators," Howard said. "The agenda was not one that assumed that American ideas could simply be borrowed or adopted in Zimbabwe. It was not an exercise in exporting ideas. It was about engaging people on both side of the Atlantic in a conversation about constitutional principles."
Howard said Virginia provided a peaceful backdrop for the Zimbabwean lawyers to escape turmoil and think critically about the future of their country. And, he said, it reminded the Zimbabweans that they are part of an international network of lawyers who care about constitutionalism and democracy throughout the world.
"I hope that they were encouraged by knowing that people in other countries, both in Africa and America, care about what is happening in Zimbabwe," Howard said. "It's not easy to be a lawyer promoting democratic ideals and human rights in Zimbabwe. It takes courage to fight for the ideals they're promoting."

Chicago White Sox starter Mark Buehrle remains one of the more appealing names on the trade market, but a baseball source indicated early this afternoon that the Red Sox are now out of the running for the talented left-hander.
While it remains unclear as to where Buehrle will eventually end up, the Red Sox are not willing to part with the prospects necessary to make the trade. Chicago is believed to be looking for at least one of two front-line pitching prospects -- Clay Buchholz or, perhaps, Jon Lester -- in order to part with Buehrle, who is a free agent at the end of the season.
What will happen to the no-hitter-throwing lefty? It's a good question, especially considering reports like this have said that at least 10 teams have inquired about him. And, there are new reports in the last few hours that the White Sox are working on extension with him, and may opt to keep him altogether.
Bottom line? The Red Sox apparently made a play, but pulled back when the asking price was too rich for their blood. That's the kind of thing you can do when you're dealing from a position of strength. Now if only Danny Ainge was paying attention...

BERLIN (AP) -- Two German hackers allegedly stole pop songs from Lady Gaga, Justin Timberlake, Kesha and Kelly Clarkson, selling them online and forcing the advanced release of several singles, officials said Friday.
A 17-year-old student and a 23-year-old unemployed man allegedly used Trojan viruses to hack into the artists' computers for about 12 months before being discovered, Duisburg chief prosecutor Rolf Haferkamp told The Associated Press.
During that time, they earned more than euro10,000 ($13,240) in illegal sales of tracks acquired from the stars' computers.
The student, an amateur DJ known as "DJ Stolen," also allegedly downloaded a sexually compromising photo of one artist and used it to blackmail her. Haferkamp would not comment on which artist it was.
Haferkamp said the police were informed of the hacking after a fan of Kelly Clarkson alerted her management that unreleased songs of the singer were being sold online.
Unlike in the U.S., German prosecutors first launch formal investigations and then file criminal charges if they find enough evidence. Haferkamp said the investigation should be concluded by January and can lead to criminal charges. The alleged hackers are still living with their parents in western Germany.
Spokesmen for the artists were not immediately available for comment.

Back in May during a turkey hunt, a buddy and I were talking about flashlights. Neither of us routinely use a light to find our way in the dark woods because generally we know where we're going and it's seldom dark enough to need a light.
Still, a hunter is far better off with a flashlight than without one. We agreed that the most common use for a flashlight is to search for something we drop. And using one to alert other hunters to your presence is a good, safe idea.
A light can also reveal where to cross a fenceline or find solid footing at a stream crossing. And if you get caught deeper into the woods than you planned - or have to stay overnight - you'll be glad you have a light.

Flashlight users are well aware of a flashlight's disadvantages. Many flashlights are bulky. Using one can spook game. They get misplaced. They burn batteries. They malfunction. Too often, they fail when you need them most.
20 years ago, the flashlight most hunters carried was probably the Mini-Mag light. Today it has lots of impressive descendants because lighting technology has come a long way. Modern LED bulbs turn more energy into light and less into heat. They're easy on batteries and are almost sure to work long past the time older technology fails.
It seems as though every company with even the smallest niche in the outdoor market has entered the flashlight business. Top end flashlights by Fenix, Streamlight or Surefire will outlast you. In fact, you're far more likely to lose it than break it or wear it out.
Fact Box
When the Everyday Hunter isn't hunting, he's thinking about hunting, talking about hunting, dreaming about hunting, writing about hunting, or wishing he were hunting. If you want to tell him exactly where your favorite hunting spot is, contact him at firstname.lastname@example.com. This column and others can be accessed online at www.EverydayHunter.com.
But for lots of hunting, you don't need a light costing $60, $70 or more. A basic light will do just fine. With a few adaptations, you can make a cheap little flashlight into a dutiful tool the everyday hunter won't want to leave behind.
I buy those little 9-bulb LED lights you can get almost anywhere for less than $3. Sometimes only six or seven bulbs work, so check to make sure all nine bulbs shine brightly.
They run on AAA batteries. If you can find one that uses AA batteries, all the better. I'll tell you why later.
Despite everything being dressed up with camo these days, camo is a disadvantage here. Get a light with a brightly colored barrel so that if you drop it into the leaves you can find it easily.
Then, start wrapping it with duct tape. Four feet adds only an eighth of an inch to the light. Next, neatly wrap some para-cord over the tape - you can get about six feet of it in two layers. Now you have some all-purpose tape and an all-important piece of light-duty rope available when you need it. And, when you need to keep both hands free, you have a soft place to grip it in your teeth.
You'll still have some space on the barrel of the flashlight. Wrap some 8-pound monofilament fishing line there. It'll come in handy when you need to tag a deer. Thread a wire or a small split ring through the little hole at the back end of the light, and add a key - the key to your vehicle, your house, your camp or the locks on your trail cameras.
Besides a key (or two), you might have your own idea about what to add - maybe a small Swiss Army knife or a single blade folder. This won't be your main knife, but you'll be glad to have it in an emergency.
Tape, cord, monofilament, key, knife, light you've already wrapped a lot into this little package. And if you can find a slightly larger LED flashlight that uses AA batteries (the most common ones), when you need a couple of semi-fresh batteries for another piece of gear, just swap out the ones in your flashlight.
Finally, losing one of these is no great loss. Just apply the finders-keepers rule - whoever finds it will be a little better off. Then, put another together, and let there be more than light.

KALAMAZOO — The clock now is ticking on a 63-day public comment period for the city of Kalamazoo's proposed 10-year draft land use plan.
The Kalamazoo City Commission set the countdown in motion Monday night, approving the public release of the voluminous master plan.
City Planner Keith Hernandez said the draft is being delivered to surrounding governmental units to assure Kalamazoo's plan complements future uses forecast for adjacent areas in Portage and neighboring townships.
In addition, Hernandez said copies will be available for public review at Kalamazoo Public Library locations, Kalamazoo City Hall and the city's Department of Community Planning and Development office.
The draft document also is expected to be posted on the city's Web site at kalamazoocity.org.
Known as "Plan Kalamazoo," consultants sponsored a series of public meetings over the past year asking residents and business owners for their thoughts on how land can be best used to support Kalamazoo's neighborhoods, its commercial and industrial areas, green spaces and transportation needs.
"Most people say they like what we're doing in Kalamazoo and they want us to sustain what we're doing well," Hernandez told commissioners Monday night. "It takes a lot of work to do that."
The public input supplemented meetings with "community stakeholders" who formed a steering committee responsible for the overall vision of the plan. Work groups focused on Kalamazoo's quality of life issues, transportation needs, economic marketplaces and residential neighborhoods.
The process included examining the current master plan, adopted in 1998, to determine if it continues to reflect what Kalamazoo hopes to preserve or become.
Hernandez said the cornerstone priority has been creating a sustainable community.
There are a variety of options for registering public reaction to the draft plan. Comments can be phoned to (269) 337-8044, emailed to firstname.lastname@example.com., or left at the Plan Kalamazoo Facebook or Twitter sites.
Hernandez said officials also will be available to make presentations to community groups interested in hearing more about the proposal.
Another public hearing is expected to be scheduled sometime in May.
Before city commission adoption later this year, the draft also will undergo review and a hearing before the city planning commission.
Contact Kathy Jessup at email@example.com or (269) 388-8590.

Once upon a time, on a dark, early summer's night, a young lady of high social standing finds herself where all her previous instruction has told her she shouldn't be: down in the kitchen, where she meets a young man from the servant class and has a forbidden but deliciously exciting sexual awakening that forces her to wonder who she really is.
Sounds like "Dirty Dancing," but it's not. And there's no triumphant ensemble dance number in the end, either; instead, when the character Julie faces her options after her own cross-class romantic transgression at the close of August Strindberg's 1888 play "Miss Julie," she decides to commit suicide. Nobody puts Baby in the corner, indeed.
"Kiss, Kiss Julie," ArtSpot Productions' new interactive, site-specific play running through Sunday at the Joan Mitchell Center, reimagines Strindberg's most famous play opening up new possibilities for the doomed Julie, whose only crime was to follow her bliss outside of the restrictive class- and gender-based dictates of her time.
The famous leftist and free-love proponent Emma Goldman wrote probably the best-known essay on Strindberg's "Miss Julie" in 1914, celebrating its brave indictment of class and gender-based morals.
ArtSpot's show attempts to go Strindberg one better by freeing Julie from her role as martyr, instead imagining her as a libertine queen ruling an alternate (and very hot) universe where everything is possible.
As the show opens, the audience is invited to enter the realm of possibility - and the play - by a variety of actor-guides. There are women dressed as men of ambiguous sexual preference (one cowboy, one cop; just a sailor, a construction worker and an Indian chief short of the Village People) and, maybe most interestingly, an actress portraying a madam from New Orleans' Storyville, to which place and time the show fancifully transports Julie and Strindberg. (That's a whole other interesting element; in real history, Storyville offered its own permissive but site-specific and heavily regulated free zone for sex, class and race.)
As the show progresses, dialogue hops from modulated Strindberg to ArtSpot additions and back. The Swedish playwright himself appears in a vain attempt to control his characters; women morph into men, men become women and everyone seems on the verge of ripping off his or her scanty costume and doing it right there in the bar, kitchen or garden of the Joan Mitchell Center. There is nudity, but interestingly, though the show is rife with simulated heavy petting, it appears only during moments when the message is clearly about power, not sex. (Actually, the blocking of one of the most affecting moments of nudity seems ripped directly from an intense moment in the film "Boys Don't Cry.")
Those who have a phobia of interactive theater will be pleased to know that one may step back and experience "Kiss, Kiss Julie" from the sidelines. There is the option to line-dance, or to have an actor feed you fruit during a loose "scene" in which audience members are invited to spend 20 minutes exploring various participatory stations in the outdoor garden. You can draw a chalk outline of another audience member's body, get spanked in the backseat of a car, buy a glass of wine or just lurk in the dark and hope no cast members notice you.
There's much to enjoy about ArtSpot's Strindberg jailbreak, particularly when the weather is as nice as it was during one of last week's performances. A weekend of heavy rain canceled two shows, to the detriment of the box office but to the benefit of the crowd attending the night I did; the air was balmy and sensual, and a silvery waxing moon trumped Hannah Adams' masterful lighting design during the outdoor free-form segment of the show.
But in terms of the story - well, is unleashed libido an end in itself? Free your erogenous zones, and your mind will follow; happy sex, freaky sex, liberated sex and sex sex sex is the message, and that's about it. For narrative purposes, that can be ... unsatisfying.
Still, as the show's co-creator Ashley Sparks makes clear in her "instigator's note" in the program, Julie's century-plus-old plight is, depressingly, still relevant today when considered in terms of restrictive marriage and reproductive freedom laws, gay-bashing and bullying. Seen that way, the show's hypersensual interactivity, though certainly not for everyone, is the key; it pushes the audience into a forced alternative space of ribald, liberated possibility.
A spring night, a bright moon, a warm breeze, a fat strawberry and a piece of chocolate fed to you by a lady dressed as a gay cowboy with a mustache ... you write the rest of the story for yourself.
Kiss, Kiss Julie
What: An interactive reimagining of August Strindberg's 1888 play "Miss Julie." Sexual content and nudity.
Where: The Joan Mitchell Center, 2275 Bayou Road (formerly Restaurant Indigo), 504.826.7783.
When: Final performances Thursday April 12 through Sunday April 15 at 8 p.m.
Tickets: $20 general admission; $15 students, seniors and artists.

NEW YORK (MainStreet) — Bank of America has added more twists and turns to its overdraft policy than Baskin Robbins has flavors of ice cream: This time it's a text message notification system that prompts account holders to opt into overdraft coverage at the point of transaction if the amount would put them in the red.
The bank is reportedly in the early stages of testing this text message application, with the goal of advancing it to its customer base early in 2012, if all goes well. The app marks a significant departure for the bank on its overdraft policies. In the hoopla surrounding the Dodd-Frank financial reform bill and the CARD Act in 2010, both of which put major caps on the fees and penalties that financial institutions could stick to their customers, the bank has gotten ahead thanks to some curtailing fees on its own terms.
Specifically, in March 2010, Bank of America (Stock Quote: BAC) said it would reject debit card purchases from customers at the point of transaction if they didn't have enough cash in their checking account to cover the purchase. On March 10, 2010, the Charlotte, N.C.-based bank said the change would reduce the chances of a customer 'inadvertently' overdrawing his or her checking account, and would aid in eliminating onerous overdraft fees, which had climbed as high as $36 per overdraft across the banking industry."Our customers have been clear that they want to know if a purchase is going to overdraw their account," Susan Faulkner, a deposits and card products executive, said at the time. "Our solution is simple, clear and helps customers control their finances by reducing the possibility of over-extending themselves at the point of sale with a debit card."

BOSTON - Plagued by problems that have wrecked their season, the Red Sox have been accused of being in denial.
That was certainly the case in Tuesday night's 5-2 loss to Tampa Bay at Fenway Park.
They tried to deny the Tampa Bay Rays a breath of life in the playoff race while denying David Price his 19th victory.
Ultimately, they denied themselves a victory with early mistakes on the bases, and then an offense rendered helpless by Price's remarkable left arm.
"Price was outstanding. That goes to show why he's one of the game's elite pitchers,'' Red Sox outfielder Cody Ross said.
"He got himself in trouble early, and probably didn't have his best stuff. But he reached back and found it.''
Let off the hook by Red Sox baserunning in the early innings, Price (19-5) pitched a complete game with 13 strikeouts and no walks.
He allowed six hits in the first three innings, but one one thereafter, a single by Dustin Pedroia in the sixth
Price threw 84 of his 112 pitches for strikes. His last pitch struck out Mauro Gomez at 97 miles an hour.
The Rays' playoff hopes survive, helped by a Red Sox team that has lost 27 of its last 40.
Tampa Bay entered the night with a three-game deficit in the wild-card race and nine to play. Red Sox fans could only long for the days those races involved their team, which is four games away from a 90-loss year with eight to go.
But what can they expect from a lineup like the one that took the field Tuesday night? The bottom four hitters were Ryan Lavarnway (.169), Danny Valencia (.111), Che-Hsuan Lin (.167) and Jose Iglesias (.133).
That foursome went 1-for-12. The only hit was a single in the second inning by Valencia, who ran himself into an out by starting to go for two bases, then getting caught going back to first.
Price presents enough of a challenge on his own, but the Red Sox still helped him out.
Valencia's ill-advised decision preceded Pedro Ciriaco, who was thrown out trying to steal third base in the third.
In each inning, the Red Sox scored a run but could have had more. Just when it looked like Price was struggling to hold a 3-2 lead, the left-hander began using his changeup effectively and retired the next 12 men.
Jeff Keppinger's three-run home run in the second had given Price a cushion. It came after losing pitcher Clay Buchholz (11-7) had walked two men.
For a guy who is 0-4 since Aug. 17, Buchholz seemed relatively contented.
"I thought I did a lot better than a lot of people thought I'd do after a rough start,'' he said.
That was probably true, even if it suggested satisfaction with mediocrity.
Buchholz' 9.09 ERA after his first six starts was the worst in baseball. In 22 subsequent starts, it has been 3.19, one of the best in the American League.
Strangely, Buchholz collected more victories in his poor outings than his good ones. He faced a 3-2 deficit in the sixth, when Jose Molina's single and Daniel Nava's error in left plated two runs.
A bright spot for Boston, surprisingly, was first baseman Mauro Gomez' defense. He made several fine plays.
Red Sox run themselves ragged in loss to Rays

The big squeeze is on and for many people the end of the pay month is a harrowing experience when the bank balance gets tight, if not empty!
Let's face it, over the last ten years we've all got so used to spending every penny we've got (and then some). No wonder that it's now a struggle as we try to pay off those debts and deal with ever increasing prices, just for the basics. For some it will be tempting to turn to payday or high street lenders with their seductive offers of easy, instant short-term money, available now, no questions asked.
But don't be! The truth is they are little better than licensed loan sharks. Yes, some are registered by government, but there offer is little better than a door-step lender. A visit to the websites of two online payday lenders revealed (after much digging around) that you would pay between 1,700- 2000% APR for a small loan over a short period. They say they don't credit score you but watch what happens to your credit rating once they have hooked you in.
Credit unions are the answer! HOOT is Bolton's local credit union and offers both lending and saving products, and small loans are available from 13-25% APR, we offer pay-roll deduction and easy ways to save.
Bolton at Home has just launched a new Debt & Welfare Advice programme at our Breightmet Urban Care Neighbourhood (UCAN) centre. Delivered every Wednesday (10am until 12.30), it offers advice to those in serious debt, helping to improve residents' financial literacy in a bid to prevent future debt – opening up access to affordable credit.
We also run a number of free money saving workshops as part of our 'customer involvement training' courses. Well worth a visit for those looking for day-to-day advice on how to keep costs down and manage finances.

Lately, some lies are being told on Proposal 1. It will not increase jobs - it can't!
Jobs are created by an increase in orders for the products being made, not by increasing profits.
If you own property, Proposal 1 does not decrease your property tax, only business property.
This current income will be lost and is supposed to be made up from the general fund. We can't fix our roads and money from the general fund should go there instead.
Increasing the gas tax is wrong too. Those living in the southern areas will buy gas in Ohio and Indiana, adding wear and tear and not paying for repairs.
And those that go electric will also not pay for their wear and tear. Add one penny to the sales tax and make that penny go only to road repairs. That is the best and fairest way to go. However, those looking at that penny must be controlled.
