I talked about the potential trade of Garza to the Rangers on this week's podcast
Texas Rangers Receive: Matt Garza/RHP
Garza is probably the best pitcher that will get traded this season, even considering some of his recent injury issues, most recently a strained muscle in his side. He's always had a plus-fastball that he throws 91-95 mph, mixes in a two-seamer and has two sharp breaking pitches, a mid-80's slider and mid-70's curveball. The slider has emerged as the more consistent and preferred bender for Garza. His changeup is a distant fourth pitch he doesn't use often, though Garza fares well against lefties with a two-seamer he's started using more recently. He's become a more extreme fly-ball pitcher this season, but has shown the ability to make subtle adjustments to his approach. Garza is a solid No. 3 starter who can look like a frontline guy during hot stretches, exactly the kind of pitcher Texas needs, with RHP Yu Darvish and LHP Derek Holland the only healthy dependable starters they have right now. Garza is only guaranteed to be in Arlington this season with this being the last year of his contract. Plus, the mid-season deal means the Rangers cannot receive compensation is Garza signs elsewhere in 2014.
Chicago Cubs Receive: Justin Grimm/RHP, Mike Olt/3B, C.J. Edwards/RHP and PTBNL
Grimm is the only current big leaguer in the deal but also has the lowest upside of the group. Grimm, 24, doesn't blow opponents away but he has good stuff and an expected ERA (when draining out luck) in the low 4's. Grimm works primarily with a 90-93 heater that has been up to 96 mph in the past and a hard high-70's curveball. This year he's made progress from being more of a raw power arm to a refined starter, mixing in a low 80's changeup and showing all the peripherals of a league average pitcher, despite a 6.37 ERA.
Olt was drafted by the Rangers out of college and received a big bonus, though his star has faded just a bit in the last year. As a college shortstop who moved to third base, Olt has good hands, a plus arm and above average defensive potential to pair with his easy plus power to help him profile as an above average regular. The issue has become Olt's ability to hit. There were some concerns about his eyes in college as it turned out Olt needed contacts, which helped him take a step forward in the low minors. He's always been a high walk-high strikeout guy but struggled to make contact in a short big league stint. Plus, his strikeout rate is over 30 percent in Triple-A this year. He was hit in the head with a pitch earlier this month and has had some vision problems, which aren't expected to be a long-term problem. Olt is seen as more of a .250-.260 hitter with lots of walks and strikeouts with the hope of making enough contact to get to his raw power into games along with playing a solid third base.
Edwards was a complete unknown recently, as he signed for $50,000 out of a South Carolina high school as the 48th round pick in 2011. He received his first taste of full-season ball this year at age 21 in the Low-A Sally League and has blown away expectations. At the Futures Game last week, a couple scouts spontaneously brought Edwards up in conversation, wondering how their club didn't see anything like this coming so quickly and how high he should be on the Rangers' prospect lists. As a skinny, super athletic 6-foot-2, right-hander, Edwards has been hitting 91-96 mph with a potentially above average curveball and changeup. He's taken a step forward since high school as a late-bloomer growing into his frame, athleticism and delivery. He's the wild card of this trade with his huge upside.
This trade was nearly completed last week before reports of a negative medical report on one of the Rangers' prospects put a halt on the deal. There was speculation Olt was the problem with his recent vision problems, but sources indicated that it was Neil Ramirez. With how the deal went down, (all the formerly-rumored players, minus Ramirez), that intel appears to be correct. It hasn't been confirmed but reports indicate the player to be named later is either Ramirez or two players from a group both clubs agreed to before the trade was completed. It would appear the Cubs had some concerns about Ramirez's health that may be allayed if he can stay healthy for the rest of the season. Ramirez's stuff and results tend to alternate good/bad each season with 2013 on the upside. He has power stuff that could make him a mid-rotation starter, but command and consistency are his bugaboos.
This was a surprisingly good return for Chicago, trading part of one season of a solid starter and makes up for the previous front office giving up too much to Tampa Bay (RHP Chris Archer and SS Hak Ju Lee were headliners of a five-player package) for Garza with the team trending down. Lee has backed up since the trade while Archer has emerged as a solid rotation piece for the Rays. Edwards, as the wild card in this 2013 deal, could end up being the best piece, but three big league ready pieces in Grimm, Olt and likely Ramirez was a nice recovery by the new Cubs regime which continues to make impressive moves to rebuild the organization and restock the farm system.

"A couple of times she has made me cry," says Pari Moayer, a school nurse with bright eyes and a kind and soothing demeanor.
He discusses his strange phobia, what makes him cry, and what he and Gore Vidal have in common.
As "The Star-Spangled Banner" crackled through the sounds of the attack, Patsy saw her mother begin to cry.
And in 2007, Focus on the Family estimates it reached 19 million people through its "cry of the Orphan" campaign.
The pages of the magazine seemed to cry out for a much-needed dose of bonkers.
I really don't know what made me begin to cry; it was a mixture.'
There was excitement on board of the Uncas the instant Clif's cry was heard.
She was almost ready to cry because her Father laughed at her.
And he seemed likely to be successful, too, for the cry appeared to please the crowd.
I don't know whether to laugh or cry when I sing that song, but I guess I'll laugh.
early 13c., "beg, implore," from Old French crier, from Vulgar Latin *critare, from Latin quiritare "to wail, shriek" (source of Italian gridare, Old Spanish cridar, Spanish and Portuguese gritar), of uncertain origin; perhaps a variant of quirritare "to squeal like a pig," from *quis, echoic of squealing, despite ancient folk etymology that traces it to "call for the help of the Quirites," the Roman constabulary. The meaning was extended 13c. to weep, which it largely replaced by 16c. Related: Cried; crying.
Most languages, in common with English, use the general word for "cry out, shout, wail" to also mean "weep, shed tears to express pain or grief." Romance and Slavic, however, use words for this whose ultimate meaning is "beat (the breast)," cf. French pleurer, Spanish llorar, both from Latin plorare "cry aloud," but probably originally plodere "beat, clap the hands." Also Italian piangere (cognate with French plaindre "lament, pity") from Latin plangere, originally "beat," but especially of the breast, as a sign of grief. U.S. colloquial for crying out loud is 1924, probably another euphemism for for Christ's sake.
late 13c., from cry (v.).

During each clinical encounter, there are moments that arise naturally as ideal "teaching moments." Here's a quick summary of how to apply the ideas to a typical patient encounter, to build trust and compliance.
Upon entering the room, greet the patient by name. Introduce yourself as needed.
Acknowledge any family members who are present by shaking hands or making eye contact.
Acknowledge the wait, if there was one.
Ask an open-ended question about the reason for the visit, to get a sense of the patient's mindset and emotional state.
If a patient has several reasons for the visit, prioritize them together, so you can focus on dealing with the primary concern.
Keep eye contact and listen for potential barriers to successful treatment.
Show your empathy for a patient's situation. Acknowledge his or her emotional state. This validates the patient's concern or fear.
Try to frame your dialog using a patient's own words and level of medical sophistication.
Keep a clear focus on the diagnosis, procedure, self-care, or other information you're delivering.
Watch for changes in the patient's body language or voice that signal fear or incomprehension, and adjust your explanation accordingly.
Give your rationale for tests, treatment or medication to encourage a patient's sense of collaboration.
Use patient education materials to reinforce your message.
Get a repeat demonstration of skills a patient needs to master.
Ask an open-ended question to check their understanding of skills.
Clearly state one achievable goal a patient can work toward before the next visit, to help your visits feel successful.
You or a staff member can note in a patient's chart any booklets, videos, or other materials you've given out, to aid informed consent or improve patient understanding..
You might also note any communication challenges, such as low-literacy skills (or highly literate Internet skills), to help the next visit go more smoothly for you and the staff.

ALBANY, NY -- Gov. David A. Paterson last week vetoed a bill that would have amended a law prohibiting free games or balls awarded by coin-operated amusement devices. In his veto statement, the governor suggested that bonus balls or time on pinball machines or videogames might threaten the public's safety.
"While I support the goal of ensuring the vitality of the amusement machine industry in this state," Paterson said, "I cannot do so at the expense of public safety. The changes proposed by this bill could weaken enforcement efforts against actual illegal gambling throughout the state. I am not aware that there has been a spike in the number of criminal prosecutions or citations against amusement machine operators who operate free plays for pinball or other arcade games to warrant enactment of this legislation at this time."
The "free game" bill, which had been introduced in the Senate, easily passed both houses of the New York State Legislature in June. It was intended to clarify the definition of "gambling" as applied to coin-op amusement devices. The bill's language makes clear that the extra ball, free game or additional playing time awarded by a coin-op game to a skillful player does not constitute "something of value" and is not comparable to a prize won by chance from a gambling device. | SEE STORY
By deleting language pertaining to bonuses awarded by amusement games from the definition of "something of value," the bill would have amended a penal law dating back to 1987. That law was intended to curtail gambling, but failed to make the distinction between coin-op amusements, which do not dispense money or coupons, and wagering devices. Rather, a free ball on a pin game or extra time on a videogame is earned by a player's skill.
The Amusement and Music Owners Association of New York, which launched the "free game" campaign almost eight years ago, said it will continue to fight to change this 21-year-old discriminatory ordinance.

Before and After Facelift Surgery Photos
Facelift (also known as rhytidectomy) is a facial plastic surgery procedure designed to combat the telltale signs of aging that appear on the face, including deep lines and wrinkles, nasolabial folds, sagging cheeks and jowls. For patients considering a face lift, viewing before and after photos can be very useful. By examining photos of patients with facial characteristics and signs of aging similar to their own, patients can get a sense for the potential benefits, as well as the limitations, of the procedure. In this way, the patient can develop realistic expectations prior to agreeing to surgery. In addition, when choosing a surgeon, it is essential to view before and after pictures of the surgeon's previous patients to ensure that he or she has the skills and aesthetic judgment you require. The following photos have been chosen for your education. Other before and after galleries in this website show photos provided by local facial plastic surgeons for rhinoplasty before and after results and blepharoplasty before and after results.

Face lift is a complex procedure that requires a skilled surgeon with years of experience and training. Prior to agreeing to surgery, patients should carefully consider all the factors involved in undergoing the procedure, including the facelift cost, the risks of facelift and the face lift recovery process. In addition to facelift, many plastic surgeons offer minimally invasive facial procedures, including Botox injections and microdermabrasion, which can produce impressive facial rejuvenation results.

Math Physics Seminar - Frank Hansen, Tohoku University - Quantum Information Functionals
Quantum information functionals and their algebraic properties play an important role in quantum information theory. Recent developments in the theory of operator monotone and operator convex functions and related topics have simplified earlier results and also led to new insights. One example is the convexity of chi-square divergences. We discuss an intriguing strong order relation for measures of quantum information exemplified by the Wigner-Yanase-Dyson skew information measures and other WYD-like skew information measures. We finally introduce and discuss the notion of classical mixing relative to a preferred quantum statistics.

Bengals sign Dunlap to long term deal
The Bengals today signed DE Carlos Dunlap to a five-year extension of his contract. The deal was previously set to expire after the 2013 season, but now it will run through 2018.
"One of our key offseason goals was to continue signing and extending our key players, and the signing of Carlos is another positive step," said head coach Marvin Lewis. "Over his three seasons with us, Carlos has continued to progress and develop. He has demonstrated the ability to be productive as a three-down player, and we are glad to have him committed to be a part of our future."
Dunlap (6-6, 280; Florida) is a fourth-year NFL player in 2013. Last season he played in 14 games and had 55 tackles, including 6.0 sacks, and he tied for the team lead in both forced fumbles (four) and fumble recoveries (three). His total of fumbles forced and recovered (seven) led the team by three.
He had major key plays last season in three Bengals victories -- Sept. 23 at Washington, Dec. 2 at San Diego and Dec. 30 vs. Baltimore. For the San Diego game, he was named by the NFL as AFC Defensive Player of the Week. In the 20-13 victory over the Chargers, he had two sacks, forcing a fumble on each, and he recovered one of the fumbles late in the game to help preserve the win. He totaled five tackles and was credited by coaches with four additional QB pressures.
Over three seasons with the Bengals, Dunlap has 20.0 sacks in 38 games, along with 10 passes defensed, four forced fumbles and five fumble recoveries. Last season he had his first career interception, for a 14-yard TD vs. Baltimore, and in 2011 he scored on a 35-yard fumble return vs. Indianapolis.

Editor's note: This is the second part of the story of Fred Linden, who survived World War I and, with his family, did the same during World War II before settling in Utah. The first part ran on Jan. 13, 2013.
On March 28, 1935, German Jewish merchant Fred Linden (Fritz Lindenstrauss) rented a small store in north Berlin, stocked it with merchandise, dressed the windows and before noon waited on his first customer.
"When the first sale is white or black, it means good luck," Fred said in interviews and memoirs archived at University of Utah's Marriott Library. "She wanted material for a bride's dress it was an omen for the good."
But it didn't last.
In a recap of my last column, Fred was born in 1895 in northeastern Germany. He spent his youth mountain climbing and sailing, began an apprenticeship in textiles in his teens and found work in Stettin, near the Baltic Sea. During World War I, the 20-year-old served in the German military and lost his older brother, Curt, a platoon sergeant killed in action.
After the war, Fred returned to his trade. As he climbed the mercantile ladder, each rung offered him a better position in stores from Essen and Hamm to Hamburg and Kiel. He was in Gera in 1933 when Hitler became chancellor of Germany and within the year like most other Jews lost his job.
The only oasis for Jews was Berlin, and Fred was determined to work. He opened his retail store and he, his wife, Ruth, and son Kurt led "an undisturbed life" until Kristallnacht (the violent, anti-Semitic pogroms of Nov. 9-10, 1938) proved no Jew was safe not even in Berlin.
Nazis storm troopers and Hitler youth roamed the streets breaking into stores. They destroyed Fred's shop and he became a hunted man. "My father spent many evenings riding the subway to avoid being caught," Kurt told me recently from his home in Massachusetts.
Almost too late, Fred bought tickets to Shanghai. He smuggled funds to relatives in England and stood in line relinquishing everything else to the Nazi regime.
"More than saddening, it was the anger and depression to be powerless," he said.
On April 18, 1939, the Lindens were traveling by rail to Italy when they were ordered off the train, meticulously searched and miraculously released by German border police at Brenner Pass.
They spent an uneasy night in Genoa and were grateful to board the Italian liner Giulio Cesare, a "refugee ship of the East," departing for Shanghai.
In 1933, an estimated 17,000 German and Austrian Jewish refugees had escaped to Shanghai, followed by several thousand more after Kristallnacht. Greeting them at port, the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee offered housing, food and clothing.
"The Hongkou District in Shanghai was a designated area for Jewish refugees," Fred said. "The Wayside Heim, which the committee had assigned us, was a warehouse set up for 50 families with bunk beds divided only by curtains. It was a most appreciated refuge after having escaped Nazi Germany."
Once settled, he told his wife and son, "We have to think about making a living."
Using his money from England, Fred rented a huge, two-story bombed-out structure. He employed refugee workmen and created a "European style" boardinghouse for Jewish immigrants. But due to Shanghai's staggering inflation rate, he eventually lost the house, but not his good cheer.
"No matter how difficult things were in Shanghai, my father put an optimistic twist on everything," Kurt said. "He made it even pleasurable."
"We moved to a smaller home with a storefront window," Fred said. "Ruth was an excellent dressmaker, and we were in business."
In 1940, when the Japanese closed Shanghai's "open door" policy, Fred received desperate letters from close relatives and neighbors in Germany imploring him to help. Complying with the only caveat left open property ownership had its rights Fred was able to bring all 12 mishpocheh, or family, and friends to safe harbor.
In 1947, the Lindens left Shanghai and immigrated to Utah where, Fred said, "the mountains beckoned" and where they resumed their trade. Ruth opened a dressmaking shop. Fred worked at ZCMI. They became U.S. citizens in 1953. And traversing the state so much like he did his youthful home, Fred lived to be 102.

Hi all.
I want to design my own custom looking login control, that will apear on the right of my html page. I am new to this and having difficult time understanding how can i embedd the login control code (form code) inside that image ?
My guess is to use position:relative and then adjust the width etc of the login form code so that it appears inside the image. But what is the practice of web designers if they are given this task ?
Kindly guide me
You are probably better off creating your form first, then applying the image to it as a background image. E.g.
form {background: url(myimage.gif);}
That's a very basic example, with a lot of options available. Trying to place a form over an image with positioning etc. is asking for trouble, and pointless if the image is just for decoration. A decorative image shouldn't be in the HTML, but supplied via CSS.
Feel free to provide a link or some code for us to help with.
Dear Sir,
thanks alot for the prompt reply. I have taken this sample from google images just to give an idea
Sir, now in this case, will i use style position etc parameters to adjust the username/password prompt on this image ?
basically i wanted to know how professionals do it ? do they just draw a image in photoshop etc and position it using css ?
Kindly guide me, it will help me to better code
Yes. Make your form first, and then make the image and set it as a background image on the form.
We can help you more with this if you want, but perhaps show us your form, and maybe a link to the image you want to use.
Sir kindly use the sample i have given before.
See in that image, we have a place for username/password. Now shall i take the below steps ?
1) lets say i draw the same image as it is in photoshop2) now in order to take username from the location shown in image, i need to adjust the css position parameters ?
Sir kindly use the diagram that i have posted beforehttp://postimage.org/image/80cqgmoe9/
That image is no use, because it includes a picture of the form. The form needs to be done with HTML, not with Photoshop, so remove the form bits from the image. Create a normal form in HTML, style it as you wish, then place just the paper image behind it.
Thanks alot sir for guidance.
I am really sorry for the late reply
No problem! How is it all going?

REDLANDS -- As part of his mission to explore California's places and faces, TV host Huell Howser visited the city for segments of his "California Gold" series on public broadcasting.
Howser, who died Monday at age 67, made his way to the "Jewel of the Inland Empire" in the early 1990s when he visited the Lincoln Shrine and twice in the 2000s when he stopped by the Historical Glass Museum.
He also spoke a number of times in the area and frequented Redlands restaurants, posing for photographs and interacting with fans of all ages.
Linda Makar was a docent at the Glass Museum when Howser came to visit in 2010.
He was in town to film segments for his show - the second time the museum was featured on "California Gold," Makar said.
The first visit took place in the 1990s, according to a show episode.
Howser arrived early and immediately enlisted the help of Makar to organize and move select pieces to areas inside the museum, which is on Orange Street.
"And so it was just he and I. And he knew exactly what he wanted. It was really exciting," Makar said.
As Howser made his way through the museum, Makar remembers a small crowd surrounding the site.
"When we went outside to do the actual interview...all the neighbors started noticing he was there. And by the time he was done, there was a big gathering around the fence, and all these people wanted his autograph," she said.
Makar, who now serves on the museum's board of directors, considers herself lucky to have been able to interact with Howser.
"He was really gracious. I got to be near him, and he had his arm around me. I look back and think, `My gosh, how lucky I was to have been involved in that (shoot) and had the chance to meet him.'
"He was just one of a kind - he'll never be replaced."
When Howser stopped by the Lincoln Shrine, it was one of A.K. Smiley Public Library director Don McCue's first times working with the media.
Howser was invited to visit the small museum in February 1992 by then-library director Larry Burgess to attend the Lincoln birthday celebration held annually in the city and tour the shrine.
McCue said by phone Wednesday that he remembered Howser's folksy manner and how he did 90 percent of his segment in only one take - except for the last question.
McCue said Howser wanted him to conclude the piece with "The Lincoln Shrine belongs in Redlands," but he didn't. The TV host kept asking the question until a "light bulb" went off in McCue's head, he said.
A copy of the show that aired shortly after his visit is in the library's Heritage Room, McCue said, adding that when the show aired, it brought people to the city.
"Numerous people in the succeeding years, not just the month, cited they saw the shrine on `California Gold.' People who have come years after the broadcast said it was their reason for the visit," McCue said.
After the expansion of the shrine in the early 2000s, Howser was invited to speak at the Wallichs Theater at the University of Redlands and was also invited back to the shrine for a new tour, McCue said.
Howser was happy with the changes.
"He was most impressed with the Styrofoam cutouts of Lincoln," he said. "He wanted to take them home."
Area chef Lee Burton remembers running into Howser when Burton worked at Esri and a few times at restaurants in Palm Springs.
When Howser made his way through the halls of Esri, Burton knew exactly who was visiting.
"I heard that distinctive voice, turned around and there he was. I said, `I can't believe it's you.' And he extended his hand and he introduced himself," Burton said. "He had that knack - that friendly, educational manner that was just so appealing."
Howser died of an unspecified illness, several months after retiring in November.

Truck Carrying Radioactive Material Stolen in Mexico
(NEWSER) – A truck laden with "dangerous" radioactive material used to fight cancer was stolen on Monday near Mexico City, says the International Atomic Energy Agency, per the BBC. "At the time the truck was stolen, the source was properly shielded. However, the source could be extremely dangerous to a person if removed from the shielding, or if it was damaged," the UN agency says. The truck was carrying cobalt-60, which the IAEA director has warned could be used in a dirty bomb.

As a child, Sharon Robinson would watch her dad walk out to the middle of the frozen lake near their home to test the ice before letting her skate.
Now, as an adult, Robinson views the memory as a metaphor for what her father, Jackie Robinson, did in sports in 1947, when he became the first African American to break Major League Baseball's color barrier.
"He stepped out alone, and he did it against great odds," Sharon Robinson said during a Wednesday visit to Holladay's Morningside Elementary. She noted that despite her dad's athletic prowess, he never learned to swim.
Sharon Robinson spoke with students about her dad's accomplishments and those of Utah fifth-grader Steven Blodgett, 11, who won an essay contest inspired by her father. Steven wrote about overcoming bone cancer and a leg amputation, and his essay was chosen as one of 10 winners out of 18,000 submitted from across the country.
Her visit follows the recent release of "42," a movie about her father's entry into Major League Baseball. He played with the Brooklyn Dodgers, which won six National League pennants in his 10 seasons, and he was named National League MVP in 1949.
"You certainly talked about the teamwork with your family and having courage," Sharon Robinson told Steven in front of his class. "Those were two values that were very important to my dad."
The contest, called "Breaking Barriers: In Sports, In Life," asks children to write about how they used values demonstrated by Jackie Robinson commitment, citizenship, courage, determination, excellence, justice, persistence, teamwork and integrity to overcome challenges. Sharon Robinson developed the program, which began in 1997, with Major League Baseball and Scholastic.
Sharon Robinson said she was especially struck in Steven's essay by his attitude about having his leg amputated. "He sort of threw in there he was an amputee," she said. "It hasn't taken over his life."
Steven was diagnosed in 2011 with osteosarcoma after he developed a limp and noticed swelling near his kneecap. He underwent chemotherapy and later a type of amputation called a rotationplasty, in which doctors attached his lower leg and foot to his upper leg, removing the middle portion, allowing his ankle to act as a new sort of knee joint. He also wears a prosthetic.
The tone of Steven's essay is optimistic and grateful. He says he couldn't have gotten through it all without his family's support. He also wrote about courage and determination.
"Every scan I learn that I am cancer-free I can go on with more determination than ever," Steven wrote. "Determination to keep on going, while keeping up socially, emotionally, physically [which may be the hardest, considering the leg situation], and mentally."
Steven's mother, Sonja Blodgett, said he's focused on not letting the amputation hold him back, playing sports at recess and continuing physical therapy.
"We're really proud of him," she said, "not just for winning the essay contest but also how he's overcome barriers he's had."
Jackie Robinson was familiar with health challenges as well, his daughter said Wednesday. After he left baseball, she said, he developed diabetes, eventually going blind in one eye and having trouble with his legs.
"He always thought that was his toughest barrier," Sharon Robinson said, "because he didn't have control over it."
She said her dad would be thrilled to see the contest inspired by his experiences.
"He loved children," Sharon Robinson said, "and the fact that I could take his life and turn it into something today's children could get inspired by, I think he'd love it."
She gave Steven a new computer, a set of T-shirts for his class, a computer for his teacher and a book she wrote. She told Steven she was proud of him. The admiration went both ways.
"He was amazing," Steven said of Jackie Robinson. "He overcame lots of things."
Classmate Maya Wagner, 11, called him a legend.
"Our society today," Maya said, "would be a lot different if he didn't break the color barrier."

In February 2011, the Sleep Inn San José Downtown was named International Hotel 2010 for the region of Central America and the Caribbean. Although the Sleep Inn has received numerous awards for its quality of service and overall aesthetic appearance, this is the first time the hotel has been named International Hotel, an award given by Choice Hotels International, the Sleep Inn's parent brand. This regional honor now qualifies the Sleep Inn for a still more prestigious continental award, to be determined by a vote at the Choice Hotels meeting in Boston in May 2011.
In addition to this great honor, the Sleep Inn San José Downtown won the Quality Assurance Review (QAR 2010), an award also presented by Choice Hotels International. To win the yearly Quality Assurance Review, the Sleep Inn competes against twelve other Choice Hotels in Central America and the Caribbean. Twice a year, Choice Hotels sends an inspector to each of the competing hotels. This inspector evaluates the cleanliness of the hotel, the efficiency of its various operations, the condition of the rooms and building and the hotel's compliance with franchise requirements. After his second 2010 visit to the Sleep Inn, hotel inspector Nicolás González said that "in terms of cleanliness and maintenance and improvements, [the Sleep Inn and its staff] are simply excellent and significantly surpass the standards Choice has established for the region."
The Sleep Inn San José Downtown has won the Quality Assurance Review four times in the past five years–in 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2010. Guests are welcome to examine the award plaques, which hang in the hotel lobby on the wall next to the reception desk.
In 2010, the Sleep Inn also received a Certificate for Sustainable Tourism (Certificado de Sostenibilidad Turística), which indicates the hotel's interest in the environment and in promoting "green" tourism. The hotel was given a designation of three leaves out of a possible five. Throughout its years of operation, the hotel has embraced environmentally friendly practices—saving water, recycling and conserving electricity—and it has encouraged its guests to do so as well. Horlando Salas, the hotel Manager expects that the hotel will receive a five-star rating this year.
The Sleep Inn is very proud of its wonderful employees, whose hard work and dedication have helped the hotel achieve its award-winning status. In addition to the faithful work of its employees, Horlando Salas notes that the success of the hotel depends on the added values he and his staff bring to the hotel. He says that the Sleep Inn offers services beyond those required by the franchise—free guest parking and free airport transportation, for example. The hotel's Executive Housekeeper, Jendry Porras, and its Maintenance Manager, Christian Fallas, keep the hotel and its grounds in prize-worthy condition.

Fresno State's Derek Carr Earns Manning Award Player of the Week Honor
Thursday, September 26, 2013
Derek Carr, a senior from Fresno State, has been selected as Manning Award Player of the Week. He earns the win over seven other Manning Award Stars of the Week in the Allstate Sugar Bowl's Facebook contest. This is Carr's second win this season.
Fresno State Athletics has announced the launch of its website DC4Heisman.com to promote Carr as a Heisman Trophy candidate. He has led the Bulldogs into the national rankings at No. 25 for the first time since 2008 and got the 'Dogs off to a 3-0 start with his tremendous play on the field.
Fresno State fans had a tough battle this week, but they were able to win it for Carr with 3,305 votes. His top competitor was Brett Smith of Wyoming with 2,552 votes. Smith completed of 35-of-41 passes for 373 yards and four touchdowns. He also rushed for 138 yards and a score as he set the school record for total offense while becoming the Cowboys' all-time leader in touchdown passes in a 56-23 win over Air Force.
The Manning Award was created by the Allstate Sugar Bowl in 2004 to honor the college football accomplishments of Archie, Peyton and Eli Manning. It is the only quarterback award that includes the candidates' bowl performances in its balloting.
Visit the Manning Award page here.
While the Manning Award selected 30 quarterbacks for its preseason Watch List, additional quarterbacks are expected to be added to the Watch List later in the season. The 10 finalists for the honor will be announced on Wednesday, Nov. 27 and the winner is scheduled to be announced following the BCS National Championship game on Monday, Jan. 6.
The Manning Award will be recognizing its 10th winner this year. USC's Matt Leinart was the inaugural winner of the award in 2005, followed by Texas' Vince Young in 2006. Both went on to be top 10 NFL draft picks. In 2007, LSU's JaMarcus Russell earned the award and was the NFL's No. 1 draft pick. Boston College's Matt Ryan claimed the award in 2008 and was drafted No. 3, quickly becoming the starting quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons. In 2009, Florida star Tim Tebow earned the honor - he also went on to be selected in the first round of the NFL Draft. The 2010 winner was Texas signal-caller Colt McCoy, the winningest quarterback in college football history, who was selected by the Cleveland Browns in the draft. McCoy was followed by top-two NFL Draft picks - Auburn's Cameron Newton earned the award in 2011, prior to being selected No. 1 overall by the Carolina Panthers and then Robert Griffin, III, from Baylor, was the 2012 winner prior to being the No. 2 overall pick by the Washington Redskins. This past season's winner was Texas A&M star Johnny Manziel, who became the first freshman to earn the honor.

The Dodgers signed pitchers Chris Anderson and Tom Windle, their top two picks in the First-Year Player Draft last Thursday.
Both signed for the assigned slot value - Anderson for $2,109,900 and Windle for $986,500 - and will report to the Dodgers' facility in Glendale, Ariz for a week of training. They will then be assigned to Single-A Great Lakes.
Anderson was chosen in the first round with the 18th overall pick. The 6-foot-4, 225-pound right-hander went 7-5 with a 2.49 ERA and three complete games in 14 starts this season for Jacksonville University, earning second-team All-Atlantic Sun Conference honors. He limited opposing hitters to a .231 batting average with a conference-best 101 strikeouts in 104 2/3 innings pitched.
Windle was drafted in the second round, 56th overall. The 21-year-old left-hander went 6-4 with a 2.14 ERA in 14 starts for the University of Minnesota as a junior in 2013, and threw the first nine-inning no-hitter in school history on March 8 against Western Illinois.
"What I was proud of is that they wanted to get after it, get going," Dodgers scouting director Logan White said of Anderon and Windle. "I asked `em, `You need 10 days, two weeks? They said, `No, we want to be Dodgers.' "
The Dodgers also signed 12th-round selection Adam Law, a third baseman from BYU, and 26th-round pick Thomas Taylor, a right-handed pitcher from the University of Kansas.
Dodgers down under
The Dodgers and Arizona Diamondbacks confirmed Wednesday that they will begin the 2014 season with a pair of games in Sydney, Australia. The news was first reported last October by the Sydney Morning Herald.
The games will be played March 22 and 23, 2014 at the Sydney Cricket Ground.
Dodgers president Stan Kasten said his team will play a spring training game in Arizona on a Sunday, March 16, 2014, and fly from Phoenix to Sydney that night. After a day off that following Tuesday, the Dodgers will work out Wednesday, then play an exhibition game against an Australian team on Thursday. There may be a second exhibition game Friday - Kasten said "I don't think we need it" - before the Dodgers leave for Los Angeles at the conclusion of Sunday's game.
"It'll be a long trip but we hope well worth it," Kasten said.
The Dodgers won't play for four days after returning to Los Angeles. The annual three-game Freeway Series against the Angels is scheduled for Friday, March 28 through Sunday, March 30. Those games won't count in the standings but the Sydney games will.
The Diamondbacks will be the home team for both games, meaning the Dodgers will not sacrifice any of their 81 regular-season home dates at Dodger Stadium.
"It was a factor," Kasten said. "We wanted to keep the home games for our fans."
Also ...
A.J. Ellis went 0 for 3 as the designated hitter in his second rehab game for the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes. Mattingly said that Ellis is still set to join the Dodgers on Friday in Pittsburgh and won't catch in a game before then. Mattingly said that Hanley Ramirez is a possibility to pinch-hit Friday. The shortstop missed his fourth consecutive game with a strained hamstring. Chris Capuano will pitch in a rehabilitation game Friday with Triple-A Albuquerque. It's his first appearance since going on the disabled list with a left shoulder latissimus strain.

A water treatment plant with suave style
Updated 8:06 pm, Saturday, November 24, 2012
Every neighborhood includes structures that serve the wider public good - even Fisherman's Wharf, which was part of the working city long before it became an obligatory stop for first-time tourists. There's a full block devoted to wastewater treatment south of Pier 39, and except for the faint pungent aroma there's little clue to what lies within the vented concrete walls. But it's a good neighbor all the same, boxy forms alongside a stylish circular roundhouse that with smooth grace mimics the sweep of the Embarcadero across the way.

If you've checked out Steve's post that introduces Actions and the Action Builder, you should have a basic idea of what Actions is about. In this post, I intend to dive a bit deeper into the guts of how Actions work "under the hood" as it were and explain what happens to your form when you use Actions.
I'll start by expanding on Steve's simple "When Button1 is clicked, go to a web page" example.
This is the simple button click example in the Action Builder dialog:
If you press the "OK" button and preview your form in Acrobat, when you press the button, a web browser will open to the website provided. It's like magic!
And now I will sadly make the experience much less magical: I'm going to explain what's really happening behind the curtain to get this to work.
When an Action is created, Designer is actually generating JavaScript code for you, under the hood. Given the conditions you provide and the results you want to achieve, we figure out what event should trigger the code to run, and what JavaScript needs to be placed in that event to achieve the result desired.
How It Really Works
What really happens is that Designer generates scripts and puts them in the right events of the form for you. Each Action generates one or more script blocks (which we call "script snippets" or just "snippets".) A script block generated by Designer has a standard format:
[1] //+ The header ID line, which is also the "managed script" open line
[0-*] //+ Action parameter lines
[1-*] Lines of Javascript
[1] //- The managed script closing line
Everything between the first
//+ and the
//- line is a "managed script", i.e. a script that Designer created, rather than one that was created manually by you, the form author. Designer keeps track of all the managed scripts through the header blocks (all the lines that start with
After creating the simple "When Button1 is clicked…" Action, if you check the Script Editor, you will see that the Button1::click event contains some script:
At this point, there are two very important technical details about managed script that I would like to review:
The first point is that the header block is the important data of a managed script. The actual JavaScript is incidental, from Designer's point of view. For Actions to work properly, all the information Designer needs is what is in the header block. In point of fact, the JavaScript between the
//+ and the
//- is routinely thrown away and regenerated by Designer.
The second point is that the Action Builder and Actions UI depend on the scripts that Designer generates not being tampered with to work correctly: if a managed script has been edited manually, it is an extremely difficult problem for Designer to figure out what has changed, and whether the changes are valid. Since it's so difficult, we don't even try: if any changes are made to a managed script, we un-manage that script. In essence, you lose your Action. This means that when the Script Editor next refreshes, the Action header block will be gone, and the script will look just like regular script you typed in manually. Also, if you open the Action Builder, the Action that was modified will no longer be there.
This isn't as bad as it may seem. In fact, we designed this entire feature with the idea that people would eventually want to deliberately un-manage scripts: maybe you just want to use the Action Builder to get you started, but you want to do more complicated script on your own: so you create a "starter" Action and then go manually edit the action to make it do more complex things. So it's not necessarily a bad thing to un-manage your Action – you should just be sure you know what you're doing and don't un-manage scripts accidentally.
I guess I'll leave off here on the introduction to the innards of Actions. I have another post planned where I'll explain the Action header block in more detail.

Mitt Romney's campaign probably made a tactical error in displaying Bill Clinton's image in its highly mendacious and deeply divisive new ad on welfare policy that suggests, among other fabrications, that the Obama administration is somehow abolishing the central "work" focus of the 1996 welfare reform act Clinton signed. As I thought might happen, the Big Dog is speaking out against the lies in a statement (per Politico's Maggie Haberman):
Governor Romney released an ad today alleging that the Obama administration had weakened the work requirements of the 1996 Welfare Reform Act. That is not true.
The act emerged after years of experiments at the state level, including my work as Governor of Arkansas beginning in 1980. When I became President, I granted waivers from the old law to 44 states to implement welfare to work strategies before welfare reform passed.
After the law was enacted, every state was required to design a plan to move people into the workforce, along with more funds to help pay for training, childcare and transportation. As a result, millions of people moved from welfare to work.
The recently announced waiver policy was originally requested by the Republican governors of Utah and Nevada to achieve more flexibility in designing programs more likely to work in this challenging environment. The Administration has taken important steps to ensure that the work requirement is retained and that waivers will be granted only if a state can demonstrate that more people will be moved into work under its new approach. The welfare time limits, another important feature of the 1996 act will not be waived.
The Romney ad is especially disappointing because, as governor of Massachusetts, he requested changes in the welfare reform laws that could have eliminated time limits altogether. We need a bipartisan consensus to continue to help people move from welfare to work even during these hard times, not more misleading campaign ads.

Vancouver student arrested for Attempted Murder
Vancouver Police were called to Frontier Middle School Wednesday morning at 9:20 a.m. after the school reported finding ammunition.
Officers arrived and located over 400 rounds of ammunition, multiple knives, a handgun and the student responsible for bringing those items to the school. The school was placed into lock down for approximately two hours while officers were at the campus. Neighboring Pioneer Elementary was also locked down. No one was hurt.
An 11-year-old boy, who is student at the school, was interviewed by detectives and arrested for one count of Attempted Murder and booked into the Clark County Juvenile Detention Center.
The Vancouver Police Department Major Crimes Team is continuing the investigation.
Many parents complained on social media that the Evergreen School District didn't contact them immediately when the lockdown happened. The district did send a letter home with Frontier Middle School students, but it did not describe the severity of the incident.

Darren McFadden amassed 157 yards from scrimmage, including 129 on the ground, and Sebastian Janikowski kicked four field goals to carry the Oakland Raiders to a 19-9 victory over the offense- starved Jacksonville Jaguars in their home opener at the Coliseum.
Oakland rolled to an easy win thanks to a lopsided 226-34 advantage in rushing yards and limiting the Jaguars to a mere 248 total yards.
Marcel Reece scored Oakland's only touchdown and Terrelle Pryor threw for 126 yards on 15-of-24 passing as the Raiders (1-1) rebounded from their season- opening loss at Indianapolis.
"We needed to win," Raiders head coach Dennis Allen said. "It does a lot for the confidence of our football team."
Jacksonville (0-2) scored its first touchdown of the season when the game was out of reach, as its offense was shut out in a 28-2 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs last week. Adding injury to insult, running back Maurice Jones-Drew did not play during a one-sided second half after suffering an ankle injury.
Chad Henne, starting at quarterback for the injured Blaine Gabbert, threw for 241 yards and a touchdown on 25-of-38 passing.
Henne's 13-yard scoring strike to Clay Harbor with 2:53 remaining in regulation made the final score somewhat respectable since the Raiders were essentially in control from the opening kickoff.
"I'm proud we kept fighting," Henne said.
Phillip Adams' 30-yard punt return less than two minutes into the game set up the only touchdown of the first half. The Raiders took over at the Jaguars' 38-yard line, and five plays later, Reece took an inside handoff and powered in for an 11-yard TD with just 4:08 gone in the first quarter.
The only productive drive for Jacksonville in the first half lasted nearly seven minutes and stalled inside the Raiders' 10-yard line. The Jags had 1st- and-goal from the 3 and wound up settling for 27-yard Josh Scobee field goal midway through the second quarter.
Janikowski pushed a 35-yard attempt wide left on the ensuing possession but rebounded with a 46-yard make just before halftime.
Janikowski added a 30-yard field goal 5:42 into the third quarter to cap a 12- play march that stayed alive when Jacksonville lined up offsides on 4th-and-4 near midfield. The penalty negated a punt and gave the Raiders a first down, and McFadden's 30-yard run preceded Janikowski upping Oakland's lead to 13-3.
McFadden ripped off a 32-yard scamper into enemy territory late in the third quarter, and Janikowski was called on again for a 29-yard field goal 1:11 into the fourth.
Following the fourth consecutive three-and-out from the Jaguars, the Raiders kept the ball on the ground and moved into scoring position again, with this drive ending in Janikowski booting another 29-yarder with six minutes to go.
The only blemish on McFadden's day came when he lost a fumble near midfield with 4:44 remaining. It was the only turnover for either team and led to Jacksonville's lone TD.
Game Notes
Gabbert sat out due to a laceration on his throwing hand he sustained in the team's season opener ... Jones-Drew gained 27 yards on 10 carries before being sidelined ... Cecil Shorts led the Jaguars with 93 receiving yards on eight catches ... McFadden caught a team-high four passes for 28 yards.

Meynell determined to accompany them, and imitated and improved upon their simple preparations.
Bella, my dear, I must introduce you to an old friend of mine: Meynell, my wife.
Mr. Meynell says that two years before he died he had a short visit from his eldest brother.
"Saves the trouble of ringing for the servant," she said archly to Meynell.
Ta-ou-renche determined at once to push for Chicontimi, and Atàwa and Meynell followed his fortunes.
"I have given you a very enjoyable evening, Meynell," he said bitterly.
In last week's Scots Observer appeared an exquisite little poem by Mrs. Meynell—the first she has written since her marriage.
Meynell could no longer be blind to the want of ease in his host's manner, and in his turn became proportionately uncomfortable.
Of this reprint the best that can be said is that it provides an occasion for an essay by Mrs. Meynell.
"My sister, Mr. Meynell," she said, seeing that the doctor was looking straight over Saidie's head.

The YMG is hosting an Admirals Hockey game on March 14th. Before the game they will be going out to eat at 5:00pm at the Loaded Slate right by the Bradley Center. After they get done eating then they will be heading over to watch the Admirals take on the Rockford Ice Hogs at 7:00pm. The cost for this event is $23 and this includes your food at the Loaded Slate and your ticket to the Hockey game. This is a great event to get to know our Younger Member's Group (YMG) who are recent college grads and are currently in the engineering field. This would be a great way to network with younger professional engineers in a relaxed environment and who knows you just might find an internship opportunity out of it. Registration for this event closes on March 10th so make sure to sign up before then. If you have any questions or want to know more information about the event you can email Chad Shihata at firstname.lastname@example.com.

WASHINGTON -- Mayor Vincent Gray wants to ban foam food containers in the nation's capitol. Gray submitted his proposal to the D.C. Council as part of a package of bills to protect the environment and support healthy lifestyles.
The legislation would ban polystyrene in food containers ranging from clamshell containers and cups to plates and egg cartons. It would apply to all businesses that use polystyrene to sell or provide food for consumption on or off the premises.
Several cities including New York, Boston, Philadelphia and Chicago are considering similar measures.

Topic: Stress!
I'm sure that stress does not help the battle against cancer. I'm posting both to get some feedback and to rant a bit and hopefully feel better. I don't know if there is any clinical data that suggests stress has any kind of a consequence on cancer or on cancer treatment - but if anyone has any info on this please pass it along!
I have really struggled with how to use my "good" time; the time that I'm not nauseous and fatigued from the chemo and the cancer. My family means the world to me and I have 2 big goals right now both related to them: 1.) Provide as much as I can financially by building up and maintaining our business. Due to previous health issues with PSC I was never able to get a great life insurance policy for them. 2.) Spend as much quality time with them as I can, make good memories, and make sure that they know how much I love them. Also to leave behind special letters for my kids for important days, etc (I've talked about that here before).
The problem is that goal #1 is stressing me out more than I have ever been stressed out before. The business is successful and viable long term but it has just turned into a tremendous amount of work lately and it seems like all of the things that could go wrong have all gone wrong at the same time! I know I can get back ahead of the workload eventually, but it is stressing me out tremendously. Under normal circumstances it would be quite stressful, but now I'm adding cancer and chemo to it - going back into work evenings after chemo treatments and then trying to have enough left in the tank to work on goal #2. It's been like like this for about 2 months now except for a couple of short getaways.
We just got back home today from a 5 day vacation to Florida with the family and that was a fantastic time. I didn't do much work at all and spent all of that time with family. But - upon checking in with work today, I found out about several important things that need to be done in a short period of time on top of the catching up for the last 5 days. I was prepared to go back in and grind to get caught up and running smoothly but not for a whole bunch of new work just put down on my plate. It's not like I can have someone else do it or ask my boss to help out because I *AM* the boss and there is noone else who can do most of this work. I guess I'm babbling now, but I'm sure you get the picture.
I can't do a good job of working on goal #2 if I'm so stressed out and behind on goal #1. Ugh. Any words of wisdom from those of you in similar circumstances? I really can't choose one goal/priority over the other because they are both so closely related! It's a little bit scary to know that frequently CC patients go from doing fairly well to being put into Hospice in a short period of time. It certainly puts a sense of urgency on all of the important things!
Thanks for listening and for any feedback.

i have try to get it to run from the menu but it dose nothing then i tried re installing it but it still will not execute even when i sudo gerix-wifi-cracker or am i typing the wrong commands.
Not sure where you are in the process. Do you have "BUC" on your menu? If not, after you do an apt-get install, you need to also go to the Italian site to download and install "Manager. mc" which works in conjunction with BUC.
Im not sure thats acurate. I dint need anything else and I had get-rix-wifi in my menu. I will ask the author to be sure.
could be.....
I am in Ubuntu 9.04 with 3rd source BT4 repositories on the laptop I used to test gerix and had to use the process I described.
Effective cracking program, though, after completing the process. Then, on my applications menu under "Other" I ended up with two menu items: BUC and "Manager. mc"
But, would love to have get-rix-wifi on my menu and in English if possible. BUC is in Italiano.
ok well since this is a backtrack forum and we do not support using our repo with other ubuntu versions could you please keep any advice or instructions related to backtrack only. You will only confuse people. The tool works fine and is in english in backtrack pre final. I just checked.
will do.
Interesting, funny, and yes....confusing. Ending up with a nice effective Italian GUI wep crack with the BT4 apt-get install repository.
ok....will stick with BT4 based observations/recommendations/suggestions only
thanks for your help gerix-wifi-cracker is now working
I've one problem. I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 and if I try "apt-get install gerix-wifi-cracker", I'm getting an error.
Do I anything wrong?Quote:
