Hi All,
I am currently working through Sitepoint's "Simply Javascript" book but I have come to a bit of a stumbling block...
In one of the examples using the getElementById method the code reads:
var target = document.getElementById("berenger");
However when I try this in on my Mac it doesn't work, the page loads up but the alert doesn't show despite the fact that there is an id with the relevant value in the HTML.
Can anyone help?
You either need to place that code at very bottom of the document before the closing body tag, or use window.onload = function() { ... };. Elements are not accessible until they have loaded.
Pages 58-59 are about unobtrusive scripting in the real world, where the book takes you through using the init method of its Core library.
Hi Paul,Does that mean that I shouldn't worry if the example is not working for me?Thanks,Paolo
No, you should worry, as this is important. I assume Paul means that the script is not running because the JS is operating before the page has fully loaded. You could try placing the script just before the closing <body> tag and see if that makes any difference.
It means, according to the book, that you should put the scripting code within the init method that they take you through on pages 58 and 59 of the book, and use in pretty much all of the code examples from their code archive.
Hi guys, thank you for your patience but I'm still not getting this...What do you mean by placing the code just before the body tag? I have the Javascript code on a separate file with extension .js.All I'm trying to do is get the following code to work
var target = document.getElementById("berenger");alert(target.nodeName);
I have linked the to the js file in my html using the below
<script type="text/javascript" src="example.js"></script>
What else do I need to actually include in my .js file in order for it to work?
Thanks again.
When the page is loading scripts, whatever is below them does not exist.
There are a couple of ways to deal with this.
One way is used by Simply JavaScript, where it uses an init loader technique. All information is in the book about how it uses the Core library to init your code.
Another way is becoming more and more popular now that removes the need for such init loaders, and that is to put your script at the end of the body, just before the </body> tag.
For example:
<script src="script.js"></script>
By placing your script however at the end of the body, the rest of the page above it has already loaded and is available for your script to work with.
It works by placing the script before the closing body tag. I need to get more familiar with the init loader technique. Are there any disadvantages to placing the script just above the closing body tag?
Thank you so much for your help Paul you are a legend!
The disadvantage of placing your script at the end of the body, is that sometimes you might be using a CMS that doesn't allow that type of placement to occur.The disadvantage of the init loader technique is that it takes longer until your script can actually run.

BETHLEHEM, Pa. - Lehigh head coach Jill Redfern announced the addition of Shannon McHugh to the team's coaching staff on Thursday. McHugh wrapped up a sensational four-year career at Cornell last spring where she earned 2012 All-Ivy League honors. The four-year starting midfielder will join Redfern and associate head coach Kelley Necioglu on the Mountain Hawks' sidelines.
"We are proud to welcome Shannon to our Lehigh program," said Redfern. "She is an enthusiastic, bright young coach as well as a focused competitor. She will be a terrific role model for our student-athletes on and off the field."
McHugh, who will work extensively with Lehigh's goalkeepers and midfielders, finished her collegiate career last season by posting 20 goals and two assists while leading the Big Red with 43 draw controls. That moved her to seventh in school history for career draw controls. McHugh posted 71 career goals, earning honorable mention All-Ivy league as a junior and second team laurels as a senior. McHugh also took part in the prestigious 2012 IWLCA North-South Senior All-Star Game, like former Lehigh standout and current graduate assistant Leigh Ann Torcivia. McHugh posted an impressive 11-game goal streak as a senior.
"I am really excited to join the staff at Lehigh," said McHugh. "I want to thank Jill and Kelley for such a great opportunity. I look forward to helping the program reach its full potential. I admire the athletes for their commitment to athletics as well as academics."
Despite just graduating, McHugh owns extensive work and coaching experience. She was lacrosse office assistant at Cornell last spring where she learned recruiting software (ScoutWare), helped plan practice, order equipment and plan team travel. McHugh also contacted alumni and organized community service events.
McHugh has coaching experience at various Cornell camps while working at Penn Camp, SU Nike Cup Camp and Duke Camp in the summer of 2012. She also made her mark with the Manlius Youth Summer League from 2005 through 2008.
"As a coach, I believe I bring an experience similar to one that the current players are going through," said McHugh. "I can relate to their stresses of schoolwork and succeeding athletically. Being a midfielder myself, I bring knowledge of offense and defense and how the game has changed in the past few years on both sides of the ball."
While at Cornell, McHugh was involved in multiple fundraising projects including a dodgeball tournament benefitting MS, Breast Cancer Awareness game benefiting Finger Lakes Cancer Resource Center and Freed My Starving Children.
Prior to her collegiate experience, McHugh was a two-time First Team All-League selection at Fayetteville-Manlius High School, leading the team in groundballs, draw controls and goals as a senior. She also garnered First Team All-Central New York and U.S. Lacrosse Scholarship All-America honors her final season.

WATCH: Stuntman leaps over speeding Lamborghini
(Liz Klimas) The event, which took place at the Top Gear Festival in Sydney, Australia, over the weekend doesn't have too much information surrounding it. Except, we did find a mention of this specific stunt in Top Gear's promotional materials where it says the daredevil will attempt leaping over the Lamborghini going around 62 miles per hour. Top Gear also identified the stunt man later as Paul Joseph.

Anyone see Tool Academy?
Anyone see Tool Academy?
The Griphouse
Is there some MMA fighter on it?
I saw a advert and it looked like some one had some one in a triangle.
I think theres a roided up fighter wannabe type dude on it. I saw part of it, just a bunch of knobs living in a house together.
My website now has a new domain, check it out - www.modernviolentgentlemen.com
whens it on, sounds like it could be funny. I like laughin at nob heads.
How you expect to run with the wolves come night when you spend all day sparring with the puppies
I'm about to watch the first episode on 4od.
Watching the first episode now and most of the girlfriends seem just as bad and in some cases worst.
Well thats a hour of my life ive wasted which I wont get back
Saw the guy trying to do some kind of BJJ in the advert so made a point of watching it.
Girls are a bunch of wag wannabes and the majority of the guys are tossers (thought the stoner and the gay guy were kind of ok). The big roider guy with the oddly shaped head (probably caused by hgh abuse) is a cunt of the highest order. The programme just proves the theory that women love cunts. Spent the whole programme shouting "just fucking chuck him you stupid little cow!" I won't be tuning in again.

Awesome, can't wait 'til next Christmas so I can use them.

It is a Christmas item, Have not used it yet but plugged it in and it looks awesome. Can't wait to use them (bought 2) next Christmas.
Cordless Prelit Wreath
By DMB
from Hilton Head Island, SC
This wreath is just as advertised! It looks great on the outside wall of the house, works as described and adds decoration to our home! We have enjoyed it all season and really like the fact that the timer turns on at dusk and off several hours later - we don't have to go outside to turn it on!The only question/comment I have is the description in the catalog indicates indoor/outdoor use but the literature included with the wreath specifies "protected outdoor use". As we have deep overhangs on our house, the place we hung the wreath was somewhat protected.
Great Product
By Con
from Dresher, PA
The wreath is of a nice size, works as advertised ( that is the timer goes on and off as scheduled) and looks very festive. Minor gripe, I wish they offered multi-colored lights with replacement bulbs.
By Rox
from Youngsville, LA
It looks great above my arched opening between my living room and dining room! I leave the lights on all the time because it hangs so high. Being that the lights are led, they are bright and do not get hot. The product is very high quality, is beautiful, and the perfection addition to my Christmas decorations!!
The Perfect Wreath
By BonnieC
from Media, PA
I was looking for a pre lit large wreath to hang in my foyer (w/o having to plug in). This one was perfect! It's Beautiful!Thank you!!!
Nice looking and good quality
By Snowtracker
from Dighton, Ma
Shipping was fast, product was packed well however one of the pine cones fell off when I took it from the box. Looks very nice lit up however the timer does not work. Must be shut off manualy.
By perfectputt

The wreath is lovely and I especially like the timer feature. SO easy to set up. I do wish the lights were a bit brighter but all in all I really love it.
By Mimi

Beautiful wreath but needs more lights!

Parkinson's disease is condition of the nervous system that affects movement and gets worse over time. Its symptoms -- tremors (often starting in one hand), slowed movement, rigidity -- are caused when nerve cells in the brain that make a chemical called dopamine start to break down and die. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter, or messenger, that sends messages to the parts of the brain that control movement.
Parkinson's disease usually affects people after age 60, but it may start as early as age 40. There is no cure for Parkinson's disease, but medications can help reduce the symptoms.
Symptoms can start very slowly and not be noticed for years. Often they start on one side of the body.
Secondary symptoms may include:
Researchers aren't sure why some people get Parkinson's disease. In people with Parkinson's, brain cells that produce the chemical messenger dopamine start to die. Dopamine send signals to the areas of the brain that deal with muscle activity and movement. The brain starts to lose the ability to tell the body when and how to move.
Risk factors include having a relative with Parkinson's, being exposed to certain pesticides and herbicides, getting older, and lower levels of estrogen in women.
Because no test can positively identify Parkinson's, your health care provider may rely mostly on interviews with you and your family. Your health care provider may order brain scans to measure dopamine activity. Tests may be needed to rule out other conditions that cause similar symptoms.
Exercise, especially intensive exercise, has been shown to improve symptoms and help maintain balance and mobility. Walking, swimming, jogging, or even dancing may help. Because people with Parkinson's disease often have low levels of vitamin D, they are at risk of osteoporosis. Lifting weights can help reduce that risk. Your doctor may recommend an exercise program for you.
Several drugs treat the symptoms of Parkinson's, but they do not cure the disease. Your doctor may change medications and adjust dosages often. Certain drugs used for the treatment of other diseases, especially glaucoma, heart disease, and high blood pressure, may also be used to help treat Parkinson's disease. Sometimes doctors may try to wait to start drug therapy, because the drugs tend to not work as well over time. Among the drugs used are:
Psychotherapy can help you cope with associated conditions such as depression. Speech, physical, and occupational therapy may help.
Don't try to treat Parkinson's disease with alternative therapies alone. Used with conventional medications, alternative therapies may help provide some relief of symptoms and slow progression of the disease.
A low protein diet helps the body use levodopa and carbidopa most efficiently, so your doctor may suggest that you limit the protein you eat, and eat most protein in the evening and not much at breakfast or lunch. Don't go on a low-protein diet by yourself -- your doctor should watch your diet to make sure you get enough nutrients. A fiber supplement may help avoid constipation, which is a common symptom of Parkinson's.
Many supplements may interact with medications you take for Parkinson's, or may work only at particular doses. Do not take any supplements, even vitamins, without your doctor's guidance.
Herbs are a way to strengthen and tone the body's systems. As with any therapy, you should work with your health care provider to diagnose your problem before starting any treatment. You may use herbs as dried extracts (capsules, powders, teas), glycerites (glycerine extracts), or tinctures (alcohol extracts). Unless otherwise indicated, you should make teas with 1 tsp. herb per cup of hot water. Steep covered 5 - 10 minutes for leaf or flowers, and 10 - 20 minutes for roots. Drink two to four cups per day. You may use tinctures alone or in combination as noted.
Consult a trained homeopath who can determine the right remedy for you and change it when your symptoms change.
May help increase circulation and decrease muscle spasm. Cranio-sacral therapy, an osteopathic form of body work that focuses on the brain and spinal column, may decrease tremors and improve function.
May help people with Parkinson's have better motor skills and balance, and help them walk better.
Tai chi and yoga can improve balance, flexibility, and range of motion in people with Parkinson's disease. They may also boost mood.
Traditional Chinese Medicine views disease as caused by internal imbalances. It has historically been used to treat Parkinson's with acupuncture and individually prepared herbal remedies. One study showed that acupuncture improved symptoms in a small group of people with Parkinson's. Scalp acupuncture and acupuncture with electrical stimulation, in particular, have worked in some cases. People with Parkinson's may also find that acupuncture helps them sleep and rest better. If you consult a Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner, make sure your doctor is aware of any suggested treatment.
Since Parkinson's disease gets worse as time goes on, you will need to be under constant medical care. Drug treatments often don't work as well over time, and you must keep a close eye on your symptoms.
Exercise will also help you improve mobility.

In the spring semester, Iowa Lakes had 56 student-athletes earn Academic All-Region; 21 of them earning first team and 35 second team.
Athletic Director Troy Larson is thrilled with the performances of each of these Laker participants.
"Very proud of our student athletes and their work in the classroom. Having 56 academic All-Region performers for the spring semester is outstanding," Larson stated. "Our coaches have done a great job recruiting high character young men and women who understand the importance of academics as well as getting their degrees. They are true Student-Athletes."
Of the 56 total athletes that were honored for the spring semester; 13 were baseball, 10 softball, 13 swimming and diving, 3 golf, 2 wrestling, 8 women's basketball, and 7 men's basketball. To earn first team honors the student must have a 3.5 GPA or above and to receive second team honors you must have between 3.0 and 3.49 for the semester.
Here is a list of the Lakers that earned first team Academic All-Region and their respective sports; baseball- Sean Alp, Matt Vasquez, Andrew Sandstrom, Austin Orvis and Elvin Nunez; softball- Kristi Larson, Jamison Bascom, Jessica Abrahamson, Jordyn Derflinger, Heaven Coughlin and Kimberly Frank; swimming and diving- Ashley Novak, Hannah Priest, Sierra Sampson, Tyler Halligan and Jorgen Johnson; golf- Austin Sweeney; women's basketball- Leah Courtney, Macy Dahl and Carly Gilliland; men's basketball- Tate Harmon.

Squash 'Superbugs' With Fast-Track Antibiotics Approvalby
In the battle between humans and infectious bacteria, humans have had the advantage, at least since antibiotics were introduced into our arsenal 70 or so years ago.
Now, however, our weapons appear to be turning against us as germs have found ways to outfox antibiotics.
Consider a germ-altering gene known as NDM-1. As reporters Jason Gale and Adi Narayan explain in an article in the June issue of Bloomberg Markets magazine, this bit of DNA is showing up in dozens of bacteria strains, from E. coli to cholera -- even outside hospitals. The gene carries as many as nine mechanisms for resisting even the world's most potent antibiotics.
The renegade gene, which has been known to scientists for only a couple of years, seems to have arisen in India (NDM-1 stands for New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase-1), but traces of it have been found in at least 40 countries. It has been causing stubborn, sometimes deadly, infections.
What can be done? One challenge is to eradicate the conditions that foster NDM-1's spread. These are especially prevalent in India, where poverty, crowding and poor sanitation allow germs to travel widely, and where antibiotics are cheap and widely available without a prescription. When people use these drugs too often or take inadequate regimens, germs get exposure to the medicine without being killed by it -- allowing them a good opportunity to develop a resistance.
So India, though it isn't the only country where antibiotics need to be more tightly managed, has more than the average amount of work to do. A government task force last year recommended that pharmacists be required to keep records of antibiotics sales, to make it harder for them to flout the requirement that customers have a prescription. The task force also called for the most powerful antibiotics to be restricted to hospitals only.
The international medical community should do its best to assist with these efforts and, especially, help Indian doctors keep a clear, public count of the number and kinds of bacteria developing a drug resistance via the NDM-1 gene.
A second challenge is to keep a steady stream of new antibiotics in the pipeline, and this is where the big pharmaceutical companies based in Europe and the U.S. come in. Sadly, the marketplace gives drugmakers little encouragement to do this work. Antibiotics, used irregularly and for a week or two at a time, aren't as profitable as medicines to treat chronic ailments, such as high blood pressure. And the sophisticated new antibiotics the world most urgently needs would be used only rarely, to kill bacteria that are resistant to existing drugs.
Not surprisingly, the pipeline is now almost empty; the Food and Drug Administration has approved only two new antibiotics since 2008.
As the Infectious Diseases Society of America, an organization of doctors, recommends (and as Bloomberg View has argued before), the development of new antibiotics should be supported with research grants and rewarded with tax credits.
We are glad to see that Congress has included the bipartisan Generating Antibiotic Incentives Now (GAIN) Act in the FDA user-fee reauthorization bill that is due to be passed by October. GAIN would extend by five years a company's ability to exclusively market a new antibiotic, and it would direct the FDA to streamline its process for approving such drugs.
The FDA is considering a high-speed pathway for some new antibiotics, which would allow for limited approval based on only a small clinical trial, rather than the two large ones usually required. Drugs sanctioned in this manner would be restricted for use in a narrow population -- presumably, people with a specific drug-resistant infection. But the tradeoff would be worth it: According to Robert Guidos, vice president of public policy and government relations for the IDSA, this approach would help at least seven companies bring new antibiotics to market, including one that has an antibiotic in the works to fight NDM-1.
Here's something to keep in mind: Without effective antibiotics, low-risk, routine medical procedures could suddenly become high-risk -- all because of the threat of deadly infection. Better to fight NDM-1 and its ilk now than to give them a better chance to penetrate our defenses.

Incredible and inspiring, the story of Hershey's begins with the tale of one determined pioneer: Milton S. Hershey. Raised in rural central Pennsylvania, and hampered by the lack of a formal education, Milton Hershey would soon overcome the odds to become not only one of America's wealthiest entrepreneurs, but also the visionary builder of a town and philanthropist whose open-hearted generosity still touches the lives of thousands.
More on Milton at:
The captivating story of Hershey's spans nearly a century and a half of industrial and social change. It was in the year 1894 that candy manufacturer Milton Hershey made the decision to try adding chocolate coating to his caramels. Calling this new enterprise the Hershey Chocolate Company, he located it near the area he had been born, amid the rolling farmland of Derry Township, PA. By the summer of 1905, with the milk from nearby dairy farms and the spirit of hard-working local people, his new factory started turning out delicious milk chocolate.
More on The Hershey Company at:
For the farm boy who never had much of a chance at education, providing that opportunity for others was always an important priority. As early as 1909, Hershey and his wife Catherine established the Hershey Industrial School, a school for orphan boys we know today as the Milton Hershey School. In 1918 and with no fanfare, Hershey transferred the bulk of his considerable wealth, including ownership in the Hershey Chocolate Company, to the Hershey Industrial School.

Its a small challange made by me, I wanna see how fast people can figure out whats missing in order to make this code work properly, good luck What the code does is printing how many loops were made after 10 seconds basically.
import java.util.concurrent.ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
public class Test
private int a;
private long b;
private ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor c = new ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor(1);
public Test()
c.scheduleAtFixedRate(new RunnableWrapper(), 0, 1000, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
while (a < 10)
System.out.println("Loops: " + b);
private class RunnableWrapper implements Runnable
public void run()
public static void main(String[] args)
new Test();
I don't know how Java handles it, but it seems to me you didn't initialize your variables a and b ?
And I suppose that scheduled runnable stops running automatically once the script is completed?
In java variables are initilized automatically (in this case, a and b are 0 in the beginning)
It does, but the problem with the code is that the script never finishes (infinite loop)
Why? Reading "scheduleAtFixedRate" I thought it would schedule that function to be run every 1 seconds, so after 10 seconds a would be 10? And the while loop would be exited?
Well thats excactly the challange, it never exits
Weird challenge.....
Here's a real challenge. Make a Java class that inherits from multiple classes. I mean a real class that inherited all methods from 2 different class. I've actually did this for fun during presentation... it was fun to see java developers reaction when I showed a live demo. If you're curious then look up AOP Mixin or introduction.. some crazy stuff that you'll never use in real project.
why do you claim that this challange is weird? have you even tried getting it solved? so far I got no solutions and in fact this is something developers should know.
Saw this answer with a 2 week delay
But why doesn't it exit? Is it a scope problem? The value of a is changed in RunnableWrapper, but this can't be seen in Test() ?
Not excactly a scope problem, if you'll print a inside the loop the code will work properly and you'll see the value increases as it should.
a small hint:The problem comes when a is not involved anywhere within the while statement, so basically the compiler 'thinks' that a will never reach 10 and it changes the statement to the following:
while (true)
making the code never end.
There's a special keyword that needs to be added to prevent this, nuff hints
You could add a break statement, but that's not very elegant.Too much intelligence in a compiler is asking for trouble :lol:
Well since there hasn't been an answer for a while ill say it To make the compiler aware of changes done in such situations on a variable the volatile keyword needs to be added on var a.this tells the compiler that the var might be changed from outside of its class so its not automatically turns it to true
private volatile int a;
I misunderstood. I thought the answer to challenge is not available since it's working as intended.
I would've done
private static int a;
I've googled to find the solution, but all I could find was sites that explain that if the value isn't changed in the loop itself, it defaults the while criteria to true. I'd say that's something that should be pointed out when explaining while loops?

1997 Dodge Ram Van 3500 Problems
RepairPal has identified the most common problems with the 1997 Dodge Ram Van 3500 based on complaints from actual vehicle owners. We'll tell you what the problem is and what it'll take to fix it.
Leak detection pump failure can be caused by the internal diaphragm switch sticking, or in some cases, contamination from debris or carbon particles from vapor canister. If black carbon particles are present in the LDP, replace vapor canister in addition to LDP. The purge solenoid should also be checked for debris or carbon contamination and replaced as necessary. All evap system hoses are subject to cracking and splitting causing leaks, Inspect hoses carefully. In cases of contamination from carbon particles or debris, all hoses and tubes must be blown out with compressed air to remove contaminates.
On the 3.9L V6, 5.2L V8 and 5.9L V8 the Oil leaks commonly from the valve cover gaskets, intake manifold gaskets (front and rear), timing cover gaskets, distributor O-ring, and the rear main seal area. Using fluorescent engine oil dye can be helpful in determining the source(s) of the oil leak.
The blower motor may operate erratically and the blower switch operation has a sticky or mushy feeling, the detents almost non existent. Our technicians tell us that the blower switch should be removed and inspected for overheating. This is common if the blower motor is frequently operated on high speed as the current flow through the switch tends to melt internal the components. Also carefully inspect all of the switch connector terminals for discoloration due to overheating and replace as required. A poor electrical contact at the connector will also cause the switch to overheat.
On 3.9L V6 and 5.9L V8 engines, the intake manifold gasket may leak and cause increased oil consumption and a spark knock during acceleration; the gasket should be replaced.
On the 3.9L V6 and 5.9L V8 the engine oil leaks at the distributor can be misdiagnosed as leaks from the intake manifold seal, oil pan gasket, or rear crankshaft (rear main) seal. A revised distributor is available if oil is found inside the distributor.
The AC/heater (HVAC) system may unexpectedly switch to the defrost mode when accelerating. This system is operated by engine vacuum and should be inspected for any vacuum leaks if this problem develops. There is also a revised vacuum check valve available to address this concern.
The HVAC blower may operate on high speed only. This is commonly caused by a failed blower motor resistor. Chrysler has released a revised part to address this problem.

Dominant Murphy fans career-high 13
A's prospect lowers ERA to 1.17 with seven shutout innings
By David Heck / Special to MLB.com | April 25, 2012 7:46 PM ET
The A's prospect recorded a career-high 13 strikeouts over seven scoreless innings Wednesday, leading the Class A Burlington Bees to a 3-1 victory over the Fort Wayne TinCaps.
"It's my mom's birthday tomorrow, so I'd like to dedicate that to her," he said.
Murphy's previous career high for punchouts was seven, set in his first start of the season and matched in his last outing on Friday. The seven innings also represented a career best.
"My fastball location was definitely key tonight," Murphy said. "And then I went to my changeup in the zone and expanded when I needed to. I had the slider and curveball when I needed them, too. It helped out tremendously."
Murphy (2-1) allowed four hits and did not walk a batter. His biggest trouble spot came in the opening inning, when he allowed a leadoff triple to Jace Peterson, but he struck out the side to strand the Padres' No. 20 prospect at third.
"We started off the day with a leadoff triple and I really had to buckle down," Murphy said. "I didn't want that run to get over in the first inning. ... Just from there, I wanted to kick it off and really get after it. It definitely worked to my advantage."
Murphy fanned 10 through four innings, recording at least two strikeouts in every frame. He registered one punchout in each of his final three innings.
Although the Pennsylvania native said he does not necessarily consider himself a strikeout pitcher, he might have to start. After whiffing 39 over 48 2/3 innings between Burlington and Class A Advanced Stockton last year, he has struck out 31 through 23 frames this season.
"I've worked on my slider big-time in the offseason, really getting command of that and burying it when I need to," Murphy said. "I've also been getting a lot of swings and misses on my two-seamer. I'm starting to throw it on the plate and it's just diving off the plate. The hitters are having a tough time with it."
Selected by the A's in the 33rd round of the 2010 Draft, Murphy has put together a 1.17 ERA that ranks eighth in the Midwest League. That's a significant improvement from last season, when he compiled a 6.33 ERA as both a starter and reliever for the Bees.
"I would say just commanding the fastball helps out tremendously," Murphy said. "It really opens doors. If you can hit the down-and-away or down-and-in, elevate when you need to elevate, that's definitely the biggest key."
After his hot start, Murphy said he simply wants to keep his team in games and help record as many wins as possible.
"Really, my goal for the year is to locate the fastball and throw the off-speed for strikes when I need to throw them for strikes," he said. "I know my stuff's good enough to get people out, but I just want to stay within myself and really pound the zone."
Ryan Doolittle tossed the final two frames in relief of Murphy, allowing a run on two hits. He struck out three en route to his second save.
Douglas Landaeta led the Burlington offense by going 3-for-3 with a three-run homer that provided all of the offense. Dusty Robinson was the only other player in the Bees' lineup to record a hit, lining a leadoff single in the seventh.

This is honestly the best Dr. I have seen in a very long time..straight to the point really knows his stuff not only does he speacialize as a pulomany Dr. But also internal medicine and has a law degree..I am very pleased to have him as a Dr. When in hospital he makes constant rounds not like other Dr. You never to to see but he also spends time to descibe whats going on and is very caring and makes sure you are taken care of..He has Offices to make sure patients can see him 2in riverside and one in corona open on saturdays what Dr. Opens on a weekend the staff is very nice always working hard to make sure we get our medicines and labs,xrays whatever we need to follow up for another appointment..I recommend him for sure..don't take my word come in and see for yourself.
Dr. Schlusselberg is one of the most experienced and professional Doctor we have ever had or meet. He has treated 2 in our family one was 9-11 responder from La. He found what the hospital missed and saved his life. My wife has been going to this doctor for several years, and has done so much for her. Dr. Schlusslberg has so much compassion and understanding. He goes more then the extra step. He goes the extra mile+. His caring and devotion to his patients goes well beyond what anyone or other Doctor do. He make you feel at home and and relaxed were others fail.To him you are a real person just like him. He also does General Medical along with most fields of Medison. He also hold Law degrees and is HIGHLY RESPECTED within the medical community. More Doctors comment he is the best. The long and short of this is IF YOU LOVE YOUR FAMILY THIS IS THE DOCTOR YOU WANT TO GO TO. Not only is the doctor the best but his staff is on top your needs.
I met him in the hospital when my grandmother had been accidently intubated although she was a DNReveryone there just encouraged to let her go. Cmon what 100 yr old woman survives being disintubated? Well one with Dr. S. @bedside. THIS GUY DOESNT MESS AROUND!honestly at first I thought he was arrogant short and rude but wow was I wrong. He is just a great dr in emergencies and very meticulous. I'm a nurse and I can say its evident all nurses moan and wine about him but its because he makes them work orders every possible lab and test and wont take them lagging or not doing as he says. Ive seen him be sarcastic and down right rude to some nurse but honestly from a patient point of view those nurses deserve it! Hes very blunt and dair won the allow any nurse doctor or staff member to make his patients or there families feel intimidated or treated as less than by anyone. Just communicate your health goal and he will help you achieve it but if its unrealistic be sure you can handle honesty
Dr. Schlusselberg is an excellent doctor. He is thorough, warm, kind, and an easy person with whom you can discuss your medical issues. He is compassionate, very knowledgeable, direct, honest, and adways offers suggestions and specifics for treatment of medical issues. He is concerned about you, his patient, and gives you all the time you need with him. In addition, I like and appreciate his bed side manner when he visits when I have been hospitalized. He is the best as far as I am concerned!!!
Caring, compassionate and very intelligent family physician, with helpful, friendly staff. Easy access for handicapped.
One of the best Dr's around. He one of the most caring and concerned Doc's around. You get very personal care, he and his staff are the best, You almost feel like family. If you lack that personal touch This is the Doc for you.
This Dr. has done wonders for us. My wife could hardly breath and was in the hosital. With Dr. S's hard work she can now do many things that she had been unable to do for years. Dr Schuusselberg is an outstanding doctor and is a real down t earth man and treats all his clints as if they were his own family. His staff is and are always on top of things and very pleasent to work with. We highly recomand Dr. Schlusselberg.
