Transcript - Not for consumer use. Robot overlords only. Will not be accurate.
-- The 21 home swinging a line. And right field and it's. Been warm -- -- and Stephen. And drive just inside that killer lines down the right field line the Red Sox win it again. In innings. -- who stay up to watch the game John Dennis asked him. Does. -- and Stephen Drew I was looking in the police reports and now marsh field today for neighbors complaining about a a loud screaming noise or. Very loud down last night with Stephen Drew came up with a big -- mean it's. He's out there now is at 330 threes got a 429 on base percentage post it all shot up and -- -- Somebody -- that yesterday to trying to look at the and I like ups and I kept saying that he likes to hammer sample size -- these guys adjust their flat liners man I mean they. The one thing -- say about the -- in general. In the moment doesn't seem to bother them -- J. D. Drew huge -- Grand Slam a couple years ago. Stephen Drew last night -- loading games go on forever confident that by not pitches throughout the course of the game. And it comes one down the right field line and the Red Sox win in New York guy Stephen Drew comes up with a big it. We've always wanted a -- is out Stephen Drew the star -- through the game last night that's not true you know -- one. ELD one -- But I had to do it through brave and another big went yell fifty missing fifteen innings what's at ten walk offs now for this team. And advocates at a point in this is when you start they've realized there's an identity. What you convinced they have their when their game yeah I mean you're just gonna win this game I mean it's this is what this team has done now. Mean basically almost one every ten that walked it off some believe me it's. And it -- there on their games and really -- but it just half bright their home games it's even more than the the result is this team is shown is the amazing -- -- -- into yes because of so much trade deadline talk but to lose that game on Monday night. The way that they lost that game on Monday you know with the Tampa Bay Rays in town the intensity of playoff atmosphere. Yeah they could not afford to have a hang over -- at the next that against Seattle in Joseph Saunders. Now joke you pitch OKC's once and games is no question but with. The -- last night and Felix tonight you can't lose game one -- those guys behind. I feel so sit near game Torre and that's what we get that point late late in the game. You've got to win these first two games and they bounce back they don't slip from a tough loss on Monday it's awesome. I mean any time you come -- where the -- is great but it. 211 -- fifteen and thereby is tired -- -- wants that you can kind of feel the crowd that stayed you know or race or skin into it and you know obviously with the with the Tampa. -- we just wanna give us a big win in and that was before times. Yeah I ate it you go back and think about the way they lost that game they lost the game because of a bad base running play by interleague bad managerial decision in my opinion by Ferrell. Not pinch running it -- is no matter how we spins it a bad featuring right now that he's back I think drugs are bad base run out of this back and conspiracy. You know ignite Stephen Drew. Is that they -- my job excuse our procedures. Homers -- -- given doubles is double than men on second and now -- has -- -- given the RBI as a texture -- and even general Steven your walk off on hump -- doesn't get any better for let's -- it was Daniel -- as bad base running I apologize if it -- analysts Thursday. With that when you get that it was negative against you will get a counting on Wednesday close started out when that apparently yes Thursday -- and then meals makes the call home plate and it just continues this pattern of -- team that I think they -- again. We had this huge debate about who gets more credit -- -- and -- we're past that by now but the one thing Ferrell buzz. -- forces these guys -- forces these guys to. Turn the page and move forward it's a mentality that they have. Mentality they have developed since Ferrell got here you know they don't they don't let things linger. The other don't -- huge losing -- they'd -- find a way to fight out of it and look maybe it's not a eight is fair comparison -- ten walk off wins. Leads Major League Baseball right now. According to my guy Alex beer they had three a year ago 33. Walk off wins in 2012. Extra inning games last year too intent. This year 74 so about what they. 811. Game -- eight games under three games over about one run games. Where it gets closer Lleyton guy's gonna make plays they were five games under 500 a year ago seventeen and 22. They're five games over 500 this year fifteen intent. Now I get it last year was an awful year old around but I look at those sort of numbers. Ten to three walk off wins better extra innings better one Ron viewer along losing streaks yes the team is better but. The M Lou that mentality is there and damn minute hand and is told there's no chemistry. Identity might be the better warn you that this team has they have won and they've had it since Ferrell got here. And get a lot of credit for let me hear from the spark -- Stephen Drew I'm sure Stephen Drew last night because -- so. You watch America play it's a watcher Mike Trout YouTube can't turn. The TV kick out your car -- my to my guess is Stephen Drew lit up the microphone post game minister hours. Huge you know me as issues you get a win as this you know type payments. Back and -- and you know their goal presume well in our bullpen zone well and -- -- some key plays. You know Daryn that you know fifteen hands. You know campus in the game -- combat cancer so -- overall it's exciting land. You know hopefully keep the same role. And oh boy that's despair excitement CDs -- me here is studio Joseph. -- on us and -- goose bumps Stephen Drew might not be that emotional but compared to his brother Shane Victorino. Okay this year I think to the crowd that would Timberlake and JC come bet that got a pumps up the crowd before the concert over Fenway should be Stephen -- region is that. Pulled excitement the next on the WW he's in town -- Stephen Drew show up. Because when -- shows up. The women get excited the men can't control themselves and -- just eats -- party. -- drew and you got yourself a party. That's him last night. And there were some other things in that game the you have to talk about the gives you don't get to that point the fifteenth -- quite frankly. Are without a couple of place. To me what stood out was the pitching once again of Koji we are. Now -- I don't think anybody and cherry and admitted as much today when he said was the biggest surprise so far. It's the guy closing out games for your right now he eating come lowered the big leagues and tell what he was 34 years old. He's having his best year at 38. He has the fifth best. Strikeout -- nine in the history of the Boston Red Sox ridiculous they put up last night Papelbon. Pedro and there are numbers five. Koji -- and we are. This guy has been lights out that glove last night yeah I'll get to the -- -- today. Annoyed me last night on Twitter with your -- globe talked American. Seventeen of nineteen pitches for strikes. Six up 6 down good morning good afternoon good night. Pitch efficiency thing to stiffen its huge goes back to the dugout high fives -- yup there's my two weddings. I'm -- seventy and nineteen strikes. That's only like. Like 90% strike great I think that's good from a guy you're asking your bullpen and no one could have expected this he's been awesome for this team. I know were worried about the innings and everyone's worried about you know were great breakdown buster -- point the other day. What is gonna break down. What if you told me we sit here any have a 146 ERA. Striking out twelve -- twelve point eight per nine innings and a strikeout to walk ratio of eight point 75 out told you African -- He's been awesome for this team. They've lost two other closers and here comes Koji -- barely speaks English. Right and does he speak English the media here locally you're -- on the Internet barely speaks English speakers. You -- tweak. Your tweet. He did. I -- here's a Twitter feed is all the Japanese. If you go to ideal Koji in your team -- it's an addict tweets on it to sort -- It's always Japanese I'm looking at -- threatening. Twitter trend you've played over there yes. We must treated. Your tree in English -- He didn't he did he. He retreated at the FAA Red Sox fan you know quoted might -- and senate to coach and I Koji re tweeted to his 100000 followers are so when he did. I think he's doing some sort of smiley -- thing. Where and and I'll retreat enough people concede that. This like some smiley faced thing I sell what does this mean -- go back and look at Koji Twitter account has bad job by the wasn't following them. The whole thing is in Japanese. There's a collectible of -- Hideki Matsui a couple days ago we treated out there's a picture of of guys and gals without their shirts of the swim team at some point but the -- and I thought I was gonna ask you you put it over there you should. Feel the -- with some -- -- -- theory you can do it. -- -- -- -- -- It's our work is a picture are -- extra respect that Smart enough for the Corona beer. No time line a couple of words and you'll but it is always the camp -- there -- -- wanna talk here mr. That was highly for an outstanding and you know the point magician -- -- it's almost like we're spending too much time talking about it. Eventually get him eventually breaking down. And not enough time with maybe what he's doing how good yes I agree with him. First thing a -- today a word about coach you public look at what he's done so far given him credit giving charity -- credit. For going to -- in this guy and he's pitched in all sorts of roles he's now being asked to close out games that glove that his is like a beacon of sun. That should never be dirty up -- that you tweet last night needs to dirty up tech bubble it's just how dare you sir. How dare you it's just so bright thing to stiffen its huge that's all it's just it's like this orange. It's just so bright but it doesn't really matter because the guy is built. The guy's throwing 9091. With a split from hell. It's this it's amazing seventy damn strike outs and sporting a third easily walked 82 of those were intentional. -- The guy the like I said we're spreading so much time talking on him breaking down and maybe not enough time. But but how dominant this guy is right now it was a ridiculous the whole bullpen right we talk to fifteen straight strikes you'll. Five votes his money through ball. I think -- through one or two balls last night in two weddings now. -- going to winnings is probably the reason why some people say in their symbol used there. You know and and broken have a game plan only -- about trying to give this guy some rest in a given that they've gotten past the trade deadline never got it. 88 lead inning guy with any kind of past -- history at all. -- You know was a comfortable with two innings that's the typical artist managers trying to win games and that night. And you like it but I understand with a concern comes in right now I just choose -- sort of enjoy when I'm watching this he's been. Believe he. I don't think coach he's one of those guys here is coaches too hot. Fifteen and a third innings pitched five hits one run was unearned. He walked one and struck out 21. Had any array of zero. -- whip of point 391. Heading strikeout to walk ratio on -- when it comes to math but even I knew this one. Of 21. Struck out 21 he walked one in the entire month of July right. The whole bullpen last night -- that entire group I mean that's been a that's been able and it's been maligned you know you wonder when when hander went down on Bailey went down how would these guys work written goes for a couple. Obviously -- we are. Gives you a couple last night they they kept Q and it. After two solid gave it up their late as I was what are your steady guys he gives up that the home run its two tees in locating and a melt. Just like the rest of the season they didn't melt the bullpen was lights out. And they it up when he neck came in the fifteenth sometime after midnight. 56 home games. That it 56 home games and they walked off ten of them. That's that's -- right that's amazing what -- ten all ten games in 56. Now tonight at eight tonight to -- Right guard tenure to the tonight's afridi Demi is anybody out there really feel good. The other guys in that locker room the coaching staff the organization feels that a -- when this game do you feel good about it -- diversity OT going up against. You'll Felix Hernandez steps gonna have to go out there and match him and they get a ticket couple breaks what the gonna have to deal. As the biggest -- but don't you go like this team goes into it and they don't. They fill a big win every game is -- a question just based and attitude the identity like that or the identity of this team is leap you -- take -- a fight. At bats -- the talk missile time we're gonna -- out of basket make tough for opposing pitchers matter we're gonna face early late we get extra innings with tightened the we are going to be -- team you're not gonna wanna play. Our -- of interest to get a good point oh -- -- expect meter read Japanese one -- you know I played nation. I didn't play in Asia. Which was a -- -- play in Asia. The -- was he was he speaking agent now I think I think the texture said you played in Asia -- said no I happily in Japan yet that's true. But I tell you speak in Asia -- that's what geography it's nice running joke we've got -- him -- -- last night in Asia. -- -- confidence again. We're gonna -- -- the countries -- a number of some geography you do an oral dual social studies Joey during the break we'll get Joseph will get a little cut up where these comets are. We'll show where they are located will show the countries in the comments do you feel good you go home we teach Mason it'll -- this -- do enough. And little -- and a Q did you have a play against him and he was a manager in Asia. No none -- -- Japan and Asia Japan's current. -- it's not a little different they'll mess. It -- located. Nuclear if you need me so -- -- putting it up the -- our question is interest it leads the next one because he is part of a bull and that has lost some major arms you know we have people screaming that the got to get a -- a bullpen arm up before 4 o'clock yesterday with people the same Apatow get. Michael Young before 4 o'clock yesterday. -- the question we come back did the Red Sox do enough at the trading deadline will it trickle -- phone calls would not Lou here on 93 point seven WE -- But -- not -- 37 WEE we got a ton of baseball for you today voice the Red Sox Dave O'Brien at noon assistant GM Mike Hazen. Will join us at 1 o'clock here today we'll get his thoughts. What the Red Sox did and didn't do. At the trade deadline yesterday your call 6177797937. AT&T decks on 379370. We're not a lot of trades made yesterday Major League Baseball Red Sox made probably the biggest -- by trading for Jake Peavy. The night for the deadlines started in the question becomes did they do enough and based on my feelings yesterday they didn't. Now I think that brought cold is a nice little player I think crackle and be utility player for a team putt as Red Sox team. But in September in the playoffs I want a more experienced utility guy somewhat more experienced Major League level playing shortstop at upper shore yesterday. Be the easiest thing to get. Okay John McDonald -- assign bodies today and you go get somebody who has more than the zero games played by Brock -- at the Major League level at shortstop. I'm knock on images again the -- but he's at zero -- -- it short stubby played shorted got 300. To -- than that the the minor league level but the Major League level. Yet zero shortstop -- when you get into a pennant race and every game matters like it does right now do you try to avoid a one game play him. In defense replacement -- and guys and play defense behind drew if he were to go down are important. It's not nitpicking folks it's called pennant race baseball it's called building your team to get enough wins -- -- the one game player. And to me it's an easy thing to get utility guy shortstop experience and I'm surprised. They didn't do that yesterday. And I hope the attic they have to do before September 1 they didn't they post. Trading deadline waiver deal they can get -- -- has bubble that could have. Made but I think you know. Big picture. Says Daniel I guess is still out there if you want him. You don't have to. I don't have the impeccably post street analysts on a -- as surrogates somebody could still make that move I think Brock call. Coming in this year really and playing third base. Com he's Betty shortstop he's been a second baseman even though he hasn't played any game during -- twelve games in Pittsburgh. Think less of timber and issues come up an obvious you don't need mature. You had two or escalation is so it's more utility guy situation way to play they -- Opposite complete shortstop. Small movement yeah we talked about yesterday I thought that trade -- may be one of veteran out CNET before them. Come down the stretch -- have a veteran utility player who was apparently short -- third whatever might be and you worry about defensively so it could have done now. I think would have been -- Michael Young. You know there was apparently you know obviously nothing happened with Michael Young nothing happened with another reliever a veteran -- to go back out there. Are you satisfied with that. Being done yesterday I you know. I think that they are because it. Actually picked Bogart's there's a lot quicker than optical finalists and -- are today and he has made some improvements the last ten days. He's constantly learning now will -- Brooks. Yesterday it's tossed out of the game to -- -- -- -- he is mentally -- worried about the things he can't control. You get aggravated the the total control over all game in the short bench you know for -- earlier. You know to show frustration level -- -- get a -- wrote true these. -- believe appear to elect a seventeen as well orders -- that you always are just a spotter. Repetitious a little bit of frustration creep -- -- the trade -- and well what would -- to do so well air effect sort of normal -- natural sense of frustration but. Yes it was gonna learn it and believe me I've been there how many times that it happened to me in the first time was difficult. -- it's that time wasn't easy either but after awhile it just disappoint where. I can't control anything I mean if I really wanna give back up there all I can do is we'll play better. And really start focusing on on what it's gonna take for me to get back. President focusing on. It Weis brought Cole. Why is it wise it's Snyder -- be talking about Bogart why aren't they talking about me -- you know what worry about the nine innings or about the preparation. Worry about the batting cage to ground balls before the game. Where he -- showing them that you're ready to come back Gupta rather than the other things. And I -- he's focused on the other things. Opposite of frustrations -- you know they trade -- they bring up brought call for God's sakes. The much -- Gary tell -- you're right the reason why Brock called school up and I used as can play short. As we don't have a backup shortstop the whole place derby can play short. So the frustration is there. But I don't you wonder how hard they went after or if there was any talks for a guy like Michael Young to come in here and give you some special at bats at third base. So -- Middlesbrough we hear that stuff for middle Brooks that change your opinion who might get an opportunity here a week as we talked about this yesterday. And we both agreed middle Brooks to get the first shot I entered these are seen -- say that late. Well these are seeing a -- the bubble guys he talked about Bogart's declared the Mike Trout. He talked about little -- and said yesterday it was a bad day for middle Brooks and I don't know I'm reactionary signal how I do. -- I hear that ego oh Earth's web email the next guy may be may go to a middle Brooks is not gonna get called up for three they're gonna leap -- will -- Brooks. And it seems like -- based on your tweets yesterday. And based on listen these are seated today you might feel that parts of that next guy. You may see him at third base. Wasn't it yesterday and this is this is woman approached job to lose him obviously ethic he's the first choice. But I think there's there's some concern that he's he's not focused on what he should be. It -- and an -- talk about Mike drugs about work from Mike Trout called -- worked for him any any. Some product affect a lot of just overlook. -- -- would just look at last year's his first year and basically the they called the 2011. It came up in July. You played fourteen games and it won 63. Okay to thirteen on base 498 you'll yes they sent him back down he came back up August 19 -- point six games. And eight to fifty. He is so his first year in a big leagues he actually at 220. -- the following year we went absolutely nuts and get a taste of it got a 130 point three at bats whatever was 4040 games or so. An 820. It everybody's different look at PD. Right 06 when he came up in September what here. Buck -- and the following year Jacoby Ellsbury comes up what he hit 390 also -- a -- -- believe everybody is different. And I just think you go one guy down there that's focusing on the wrong things things he can't control one guy down their focusing on the right things and has played baseball in better. So yeah. I think in -- to be up. And I and I wouldn't be shocked at all -- in Houston. You got a ten day road trip to bring him up against Tripoli team first off begin a ten -- road trip this can be a lot of noise when it happens. To give ten days into weeks -- so on the road and come down and come back and you've seen him play a little bit. But the quieter if that happened. So set up paying a high price for young Bogart's may be ends up being in that god what about the bullpen could get conical yesterday. About the bullpen and to me I looked at it is. That you greed was two for one mile I and they she's with a -- he's being traded but peavy is the rotation worked in the bullpen. Until. Work -- sent down last night. Does that change your opinion what they should or shouldn't have done at the deadline if they're gonna send out work -- because to me it's like political fifteen innings. -- still probably here somewhere on the staff you're just look at it and said Brandon Workman can't pitch tonight he can't pitch tomorrow we know -- let's send them down. Maybe wait ten days that we DL somebody but because what fifteen. That to me that was a reason to get sent back down. Unless -- I actually agree with yesterday Joseph Ferrell talk to. Before the game it was you know work its goal of the bullpen. You know at Torrey south and three starts. A -- and -- came up with that it came out of the bullpen against Seattle was very first appearance. After what -- restarts -- probably go a little more competence and he's probably go a lot more conference as well so you think he's going to be vital part of his ball and that's why you do it. -- -- want Jake Peavy goes the rotation. You know -- go work and go -- and apparent. Now deeply fifteen innings last night and probably be admitted he probably won't be able to pitch until Saturday this is before the game last night. Seeking news and denying you -- music to morning probably use in Saturday. Eagle fifteen innings and it kind of stuck. But if he's that important. To your hand you -- sent down for ten days -- what you cynic I doubt he's got a stayed out ten days. So there's they got some options I had bacon obviously -- -- to deal anybody walked. Yes you know it during combat with an attending to god they bring up tonight if for example they bring up the -- -- -- -- -- organized -- -- the spot -- is so. But anybody else think this phantom the Ellis dilatory -- BA -- You know you can phantom DL do you work Rebecca here on Saturday he can bypass in ten days he plays a player on the -- -- But I just figured there was other options and -- all right now I mean I'm I'm looking at 08 don't dilatory these two guys have. -- ball down I mean Stephen Wright. And -- -- nine innings but that was on Sunday you know tonight's. Four days' rest is a knuckleballer. These are what the perfect storm right fifteen innings last night running out arms and egotistical tonight -- last couple outings stuff relief. Hasn't really been he's really fought through these stocks continue to fight that started and tonight. The hope was there's good stuff. What you want someone to back them up and I just -- -- ago. Just sit down the -- dilatory bring up Stephen right back up to piggyback the right Napster for one night. That's important to really help this team wants it Odom if attendance which can help until Saturday command back in my mind they find a way to get a backup your but it is interest and less -- they can be -- mute not moot point because they can just. Can't deal anybody -- fan appeal anybody bring -- guy. Topeka team appears before that it did the Red Sox do enough for the deadline 61777979837. The phone number rate TT tech -- 37937. Billy is in lay in -- getting your reaction the trade they made the trade they did not make it -- There with the guys. -- I don't -- it did not at all. The English is peavy deal idea. I didn't really like. You -- honestly just maybe the problem at all. I know until receiving he's been great and everything but. I can't integral and the kid hasn't done anything wrong -- -- it seems like at all. And you know line -- -- -- they've got excited JPG. You know he's not -- eight people six years ago and I look at the numbers -- And you know it is only the beginning of the year tree please use of -- it all written but I just don't really hold on and I think they really. These compelled by the bullpen is now -- I think that's. Something they really -- about. More help on. What they got to remember ability and this is this the one thing is sort of gets lost is that. You know bike by getting Jake Peavy were put -- that -- they will be -- -- Saturday so everybody's gonna be up in arms they won't be so damn good why would you send him down and I and I understand that. But Beckett being Beckett be moot point is to be up on Sunday with the DL stint. I think long term we look at this team. Remember Franklin Morales to another perfect inning last night OK he's another reliever that's going into this bullpen. The -- what you've seen from Great Britain out of his bullpen has been a huge lift the -- -- are going this open and I think he can really help you out so in order to what Workman is bullpen. You had to get another starter right. So everybody that's comparing. You compared that are wrong person when -- -- track compared to Steven Wright because in nordic it -- -- -- Stephen Wright has to be called up to the big -- so it was Jake -- better than Stephen -- I think he has it if you don't keep leaving you bring up Stephen Wright. Tell me who the next arteries you've got one month the play baseball and where is that depth in Tripoli near once -- -- feel good about. -- -- great -- yesterday. But we've seen to a consistent up here. I mean not. I -- -- -- -- I -- united I'm outnumbered sentinel. You know the pomp and everything else just off the bat like yesterday. It didn't seem like it did enough to me or -- Familiar -- -- address the week that the AT&T Textron is lit up here 37937. How about bullpen help wind -- bullpen. The park when the bullpen they'll recall -- there that there's a million textures and what Billie just said. We'll talk about that with -- we come back because to me if you look at the other trades that were made. I think it's pretty evident but he couldn't give bullpen help because that was not available when you hear that the trading deadline moves. The real trades that were made it becomes evident. We'll talk about that last you do that -- the deadline next.

DETROIT Four-time Stanley Cup-winner Ted Lindsay has told a federal jury in Detroit Vladimir Konstantinov was the world s best hockey player before a disabling crash ended his career.
The 82-year-old ex-Red Wings star testified Monday Konstantinov would have led the team to at least two more Stanley Cups had he not been hurt.
A U.S. District Court jury is hearing a suit by Konstantinov and ex-Red Wings masseur Sergei Mnatsakanov over a limo crash that left them with disabling brain injuries.
The limo was taking them home from a party June 13, 1997 when the driver crashed. Konstantinov and Mnatsakanov sued a Findlay, Ohio, Ford dealership that sold the limo.
The dealership says it isn t liable because it didn t make the vehicle.

The author is a Forbes contributor. The opinions expressed are those of the writer.
The students stood around their baby like family in a maternity ward, eagerly watching a newborn with pride and wonder.
Their creation isn't flesh, blood and bone, but carbon fiber, Kevlar and Nomex, stretched over a skeleton of welded aluminum tubing. Its heart is a three-phase electric motor. Sunlight gives it power.
This three-wheeled solar car is called the SunHawk and was hand built by electrical and computer engineering students at the State University of New York in New Paltz. Pride in what they have created is palpable.
Almost every inch of its lightweight, ocean-colored body—which was designed by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Solar Electric Vehicle Team—is plastered with silicon cells that absorb enough sunlight to fully charge the car's lithium iron phosphate batteries from dead to full in four hours. Go easy on the throttle and it will keep a constant charge to drive indefinitely, as long as the sun's out.
In Pictures: Anatomy of a Solar Car
The students and their professor, Michael Otis, who oversees the solar car project, were generous enough to let Hannah Elliott and me behind the wheel of their $250,000 baby. And what a privilege it was.
Driving the SunHawk around the campus' winding roads was so thrilling it even overshadowed the time I spent behind the wheel of a $1.5 million Bugatti Veyron several years back.
The fact that I almost crashed it helped sear the experience into my memory. But the car is spectacular in its own right and a bellwether for what the future of motoring could be—or perhaps should be.
The SunHawk isn't pristinely constructed, and that's part of its appeal. It is rough hewn, with exposed seams of epoxy, plastic zip ties to hold the body shell onto the frame, and a bungie cord that keeps the scratched Plexiglass canopy in place.
Climbing in and out involves acrobatics. Once inside, discomfort is immediate. I had to sit so far forward to reach the pedals, and slouch so much to get the canopy closed that only my shoulders touched the vertical back rest.
The SunHawk doesn't have Gallium arsenide solar cells like NASA and other schools with multimillion-dollar budgets use. Nor does it have the most exotic construction: At nearly 600 pounds, it's almost twice as heavy as some solar cars.
But the SunHawk is robust. Its beefy, practical construction, with overbuilt suspension components and a sturdy aluminum frame, just plain works. Last year, the SunHawk qualified on its very first try for the grueling American Solar Challenge, a 1,200-mile road race from Tulsa, Okla., to Chicago.
"Some teams who have been doing this for 10 years have never made it," Otis says. It finished eighth in a field of about 20 entrants, some of which had to drop out before the end.
Hannah drove the car first and jokes in one of her posts about the steering wheel popping off before she got underway. That might seem alarming, but it's actually designed to do that, to make it easier to slither into the constricting aluminum cage. It probably wasn't fully snapped into place when Hannah got in.
Good thing she found out before starting to drive. I wasn't so lucky.
About halfway through my jaunt in the SunHawk, the brake pedal fell off. Unlike the steering wheel, it's not designed to do that.
Nothing causes a sense of terror quite like pressing dead air where there once was a brake pedal. Initially, I thought maybe it was just that my clunky boot was having trouble connecting with the sliver of metal in the constricted footwell. But after a quick glance and a few more frantic foot flails, reality set in: I was going about 25 mph in a one-of-a-kind solar car with no way to stop.

This bizarre-looking building can become a movie theater, a fashion exhibition, a live performance space, and maybe a killer robot. Advertisement Prada's shape-shifting "Transformer" can take on different configurations and uses, depending on which side it's placed on. Designed by Rem Koolhaas' legendary Office for Metropolitan Architecture, the 160-ton structure can be lifted and rotated in just one hour to create a different shape, including a totally different inner space. It's wrapped in a highly elastic polyvinyl chloride membrane, which was sprayed on as a liquid. Stationed next to the 16th century Gyeonghui Palace, the building is designed to be easily rotated in a tight space, without damaging any nearby buildings. Each side has three openings, which connect to a series of air-conditioning vents. Advertisement For now, the building — which just opened last week — is sort of cone shaped, for an exhibition of skirts. On May 24, the structure gets turned around and becomes a rectangle, to allow movie exhibitions. And then the structure will be turned again, to become cross-shaped, for an art exhibition. And finally, it'll be turned into a circle for a fashion show. All images by Getty or Prada. [WWD]Reply5 repliesLeave a reply

CyberSecurity - From Firefighting to SecOps
Is security at your enterprise focused on reactive firefighting, or on proactive business enablement? For maximum protection and business benefit, your enterprise's security must protect in silence-it must be pervasive, ubiquitous and invisible to users. However, too often, security teams are too busy keeping up with new threats and remediation efforts to deliver truly integrated, proactive and seamless security that protects all assets, connections, and users.
Watch this stimulating and informative webinar, Cybersecurity: From Firefighting to "SecOps." Learn how IT and security decision-makers in enterprises across multiple industries are making security more agile, operationally focused and effective, and how you and your colleagues can also do so.

How about those sunsets?
It's like having our own personal drive-in screen, with a different show every night.
Fall officially arrives tomorrow and I hope we have some leaves left on the trees. Rain would help.
I was doing a little math the other day, adding up the recorded rain we've had, as recorded by the National Weather Service. They say we've had over 23 inches, since the beginning of May. My Oregon Weather Station tells me I've had just under 16 inches here on the farm, in the same time period. It's dry.

Introduction and Specifications
Intel has pushed out many SSDs over the years, and unlike many manufacturers, they have never stopped heavily pushing SSD in the enterprise. They did so with their very first push of the X25-M / X25-E, where they seemingly came out of nowhere and just plunked down a pair of very heavy hitting SSDs. What was also interesting was that back then they seemed to blur the lines by calling their consumer offering 'mainstream', and considering it good enough for even some enterprise applications. Even though the die-hard stuff was left to the SLC-based X25-E, that didn't stop some consumers from placing them into their home systems. The X25-E used in this review came from a good friend of mine, who previously had it installed in his home PC.
With several enterprise class models out there, we figured it was high time we put them all alongside each other to see where things are at, and that's the goal of this particular piece. We were motivated to group them together by the recent releases of the DC S3500 and DC S3700 drives, both using Intel's new Intel 8-channel controller.
Capacity | 32, 64GB | 40, 80, 120, 160, 300, 600GB | 100, 200, 300GB | 400, 800GB | 80, 120, 160, 240, 300, 480, 600, 800GB | 100, 200, 400, 800GB |
Read (seq) | 250 | 270 | 270 | 500 | 500 | 500 |
Write (seq) | 170 | 205 | 210 | 375 | 410 | 365 |
Read (4k) | 35k | 39.5k | 38.5k | 45k | 75k | 75k |
Write (4k) | 3.3k | 23k (8GB span) | 2.7k | 18.7k | 11k | 32k |
- Since the SSD 910 is subdivided into 4 or 2 (depending on capacity) physical 200GB volumes, we chose to test just one of those physical units. Scaling can then be compared to other units placed into various RAID configurations. 910 specs were corrected to that of the single physical unit tested.
- All other listed specs are specific to the tested (bold) capacity point.
Starting with the good old X25-E, which pretty much started it all, is Intel's original SATA 3Gb/sec 10-channel controller. Despite minor tweaks, this same controller was used in the X25-M, X25-M G2, SSD 320 and SSD 710 Series. Prior to Intel releasing their own 6Gb/sec SATA controller, they filled some of those voids by introducing Marvell and SandForce controllers with the 510 and 520, respectively, but those two were consumer-oriented drives. For the enterprise, Intel filled this same gap with the 910 Series - a PCIe LSI Falcon SAS RAID controller driving 2 or 4 6Gb/sec SAS Hitachi Ultrastar SSDs. Finally (and most recently), Intel introduced their own SATA 6Gb/sec controller in the form of the DC S3500 and DC S3700. Both are essentially the same 8-channel controller driving 20nm or 25nm IMFT flash, respectively.
More to follow on the next page, where we dive into the guts of each unit.
Intel Releasing Firmware Fix For 8MB SSD Bug In Two Weeks
Subject: Storage | August 16, 2011 - 04:07 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: ssd, Intel, firmware bug, 320
We reported a few weeks ago that Intel was able to reproduce the 8MB firmware bug in it's lab and was working on a fix. Officially called the Bad Context 13x Error, the 8MB bug is a rather serious firmware issue that a small percentage of users ran into when their drives unexpectedly lost power due to improper shutdown procedures or power outage at an especially wrong time. Once the drives were powered on again, they reported a capacity of 8MB to its users, who were able to restore the drive using secure erase but not the data.
Fortunately, a fix is on its way very soon, as Computer World quoted Intel in stating "the new firmware update is in final validation testing and is targeted for release on Intel Communities within the next two weeks."
Further, users will be able to apply the firmware fix without needing to secure erase the drive; however, none of the lost data can be recovered. As with any drive, SSD or otherwise, be sure to perform regular backups to mitigate the amount of data one can lose in drive failure. Intel is also recommending that users ensure they shut down their computers properly and to avoid unplugging the SSD from a powered on machine.
Stay tuned to PC Perspective for more information on the Bad Context 13x Error as it develops. Until then, rest assured that a fix is on the way soon.
Intel reproduces '8MB bug', fix coming soon.

Tagged: ssd, Intel, firmware, 320
We've seen some recent mumblings about a corner case where inadvertent or improper power loss to an Intel 320 Series SSD would result in the drive getting stuch in an inaccessible mode where it appears as an 8MB drive. From what I've gathered, the issue seems rare and may be tied to some specific hardware configurations.
The SSD 320 we tested back in March (we couldn't get it to 'stick' in 8MB mode).
Intel Extends 320 SSD Series' Warranty To 5 Years
Subject: Storage | May 20, 2011 - 07:00 PM | Tim Verry
Tagged: ssd, Intel, 320
Intel is so confident in their new Intel 320 series solid state drives that they are extending the warranty from three to five years. The 320 series use 25 nm NAND flash memory, and have a claimed MTBF (mean time before failure) of 1.2 million hours.
According to the new warranty, Intel states that: "if the Product is properly used and installed, it will be free from defects in material and workmanship, and will substantially conform to Intel's publicly available specifications for a period of five (5) years beginning on the date the Product was purchased." Naturally, it does not cover physical or other accidental damage. As SSDs are still relatively new technology, it is hard to gauge reliability in consumer systems over the long term, so it is nice to see that Intel is confident enough in it's 25nm flash technology to extend the warranty. Hopefully, this will influence other manufacturers to adopt longer warranties. You can read the full warranty details here.

Bill would freeze Obama admin's power to grant amnesty to illegal immigrants - TheHill.com
The Republican chairman of the House Judiciary Committee is crafting a bill that would temporarily freeze the Obama administration's power to grant amnesty to illegal immigrants.
The measure is in response to a memo issued by the head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) last week that approved a broader breadth of discretion for agency officials when considering whether to deport someone through the Secure Communities program.
Rep. Lamar Smith (R-Texas), who is sponsoring the legislation, blasted the memo. He said that under the new guidelines ICE agents could defer the deportations of "millions of deportable illegal and criminal immigrants."

This might be a step out of the norm for your traditional rankings. It's a projection based on what could be in store for the bracket in March.
Sure, Cornell smoked Harvard by 36 in Ithaca on Saturday. Normally, beating Harvard, even by 30-plus, is hardly enough to push a team into the Top 25.
But this is a new era in Cambridge, and for Cornell, it's the appreciation of a team that has the look of a real first-round winner.
The Big Red did have higher major wins at Alabama, at UMass and at St. John's. But they also lost at home to Seton Hall and at Syracuse and pushed Kansas at Phog Allen Fieldhouse as much as Kansas State did in Manhattan last weekend.
The coaches recognized that Cornell didn't need to beat a big-time opponent to earn a ranking. They can clearly see that this team has something special going on with a veteran lineup led by Ryan Wittman and Louis Dale on the perimeter and a scoring big man in the post in Jeff Foote.
"That's a team capable of making a Davidson kind of run like two years ago," Harvard coach Tommy Amaker said, referring to the Wildcats' Elite Eight run led by Stephen Curry in 2008. "You could see them in the Sweet 16, and from there, anything is possible. They are very talented and have a lot of seniors. They've been in the tournament. They're legit. They pounded us. I voted for them in the Top 25 well before we played them."
Amaker said the balance the Big Red possess makes this Cornell team much different from previous Ivy League teams. That means Foote.
"He's the key to their team, and at the end of the day, if your shooters are cold, you can drop the ball inside and come away with something," Amaker said. "He can equalize things for you. He can block shots, he can score and make foul shots. I can see them being a force to be reckoned with."
The easy thing to do is to tear down Cornell as a possible NCAA first-round winner. Our ESPN research team provided some facts to try to dismiss Cornell's ranking and relevance -- the first time an Ivy League team other than Princeton or Penn was ranked since 1970.
Since Princeton won a first-round game as a five-seed in 1998, the Ivy League champ has bowed out in the first round 11 straight seasons. Only two of those games were decided by single digits.
Cornell, in the last two NCAAs, lost by 19 to Missouri and then by 24 to Stanford.
So of course we should just dump the Big Red and not consider them as a possible first-round winner, right?
First off, the seeds have mattered. Cornell got a 14-seed the last two seasons, while Penn received a 14, 15 and 13 and Princeton a 14 in 2004. Penn did have two 11s in a row in 2002 and '03, but Princeton had a 15 in 2001. The 2000 Penn team had a 13, and the '99 team had an 11. Cornell probably wouldn't be a lower number than 10, so the Big Red would be in a similar ballpark. A 15 is unlikely if the Big Red continue to win. A 14 is probably a stretch, too. So expect Cornell to fall in the 10- to 13-seed range.
But there are plenty of reasons to believe the losing streak won't continue in March.
"You have to judge those other teams by how they did in the preconference part of the season," Cornell coach Steve Donahue said. "Those other 11 teams hadn't fared as well or challenged for big wins. Our '94 team at Penn beat St. John's, Georgia and Michigan, so we were prepared to win in the NCAA."
A No. 11-seed Penn won a first-round game in 1994, beating No. 6 seed Nebraska before losing to No. 3 Florida in the second round.
"We're a much better team than last year," Donahue said. "We've add a player that started at Kentucky in [center] Mark Coury. [Guard] Max Groebe is healthy for us. Foote added 50 pounds. We've proven we're much more prepared for the NCAA tournament."
Donahue isn't getting ahead of himself and wants to reiterate that he's not thinking about the NCAA tournament. There is still plenty of work to do in the Ivy. Princeton has improved to 2-0 in the conference, and there is another date with Harvard in Cambridge on Feb. 19.
Donahue wants to embrace the ranking and prove the team is worthy by playing well over the next 10 games.
"We don't have a conference tournament, and every weekend for us is a mini-tournament," said Donahue, a former Penn assistant. "I've been trained to think like that for the last 20 years."
For the Ivy dream scenario (two league bids), there is really only one path: Cornell (34 in the RPI) would have to win out but lose at Harvard (67 RPI). The Crimson couldn't drop another game and would have to win in a neutral-site, late-game playoff with Cornell.
And even that wouldn't be a cinch for the Big Red.
The Crimson are led by Jeremy Lin but have a younger set around him. On Saturday, Amaker said it was the first time Harvard players got a sniff of what an intense atmosphere is like on the road in the league.
"We're still trying to find ourselves, we still have a lot of growth to have happen," Amaker said. "You can see [Cornell's] focus. They have seniors. They've won before."
And if Amaker is right, Cornell will win again -- in March.

The Considerations: National Transport
The purpose of this introductory document is to discuss the central differences between varying modes of transport – particularly those associated with intercity: trains vs planes transportation and how transport and equipment is financed. The functionality of transport dictates the method in which the vehicle can be used, and we will be addressing the main differences between thee differing modes of transportation.
The Transport Variables
As expected, the variation between modes of transport comes down to one main consideration; the way in which those modes of transport function. Public transport will boast its own set of features and benefits, whereas cars, boats, trams, trains and airplanes will afford their own set of advantages. The purpose of this document is to explore the main benefits between these modes of transport.
It will follow a specific layout for simplicity – beginning with road-using vehicles, then moving on to sea faring vessels and finally air-travel methods.
Vehicles & Road Worthiness
There is one thing to consider when considering using road vehicles such as how to find a good mechanic for all kinds of transport, private cars and even buses. These vehicles must be road worthy, and must undergo yearly maintenance (less often in particular parts of the world). This maintenance will ensure that the vehicle is road worthy, and can legally operate along all public roads and highways.
Where these two vehicles differ is in their usage. Where cars are more personal, and are often utilised by individuals and small groups – buses are far better suited to larger scales of transport. Another key benefit of travelling by car is that a person can be responsible for their own road activities. When riding on board a bus, it is often down to the driver to decide when to stop, for how long, and how frequently (standard bus stops taken in to account).
New Cars: Greener Than You Think
Although cars are far more versatile using electric batteries, they also require personal maintenance, including expenses for gas and any repairs – while emitting far more toxic fumes than buses (which are much fewer in number). Buses on the other hand are better suited to those that travel frequently – and the only expense is the cost of the ticket. All maintenance is undertaken by the transport company, allowing the passenger to travel without concern.
Planes & Trains Nowadays, it's not uncommon for people to travel between locations, even within the same country by plane. They are much more time efficient than trains, although they are often far more expensive to utilise frequently. The key benefit does relate to their speed, and it's now entirely possible to travel thousands of kilometres within a matter of hours – but the cost to do so is still worthy of consideration.
Transport Affordability
Trains on the other hand are often affordable, even when travelling across country. They may take longer than planes, but they counter this difference in time by offering far more frequent services. When considering that a train may take double the time to travel to a destination (when compared to a plane), the deciding factor often comes down to cost – and trains will normally cost a fraction of the price of a plane ticket in most instances, even when travelling first class.
Battle For Transport Dominance
Within this document, we will discuss the similarities and differences between intercity: trains vs planes vs buses. Each of these methods is a viable option for transportation – even across country, and we will be evaluating the key benefits and disadvantages.
Transport Considerations
Although the method for transportation differs – each vehicle offers its own unique take on road and air travel. It's worth considering that all may be suitable for particular tasks (travelling between states and counties using your rental caravan), whilst they may not all be suited to particular modes of travel (as is the case with airplanes, marine transport etc)..
RIVALS: Buses, Trains and Planes
There are a variety of benefits that buses can afford to their passengers. From frequent pick up points, to numerous stops – buses could be considered the ultimate mode of transport for inner-city travel. They are also very environmentally friendly, and not just due to their fewer number when compared to cars either. All modern buses must be checked for emissions at least three times a year, and if an increase is detected – the transport company will fund the repairs or costs associated with lowering the emissions.
They are also very well suited for longer range journeys, and due to their large size, they are often capable of transporting small to medium volumes of people to their destination.
Trains go even further when it comes to their usage potential, in that they run on electricity, so there are no harmful emissions associated with their use. They also run as frequently as most bus systems (in many cases more frequently with a train arriving every few minutes in particularly busy areas). Finally, they are incredible versatile when it comes to the amount of people that can be transported from one location to the next.
Trains often comprise individual carriages, and these carriages can be added and removed as required. Although there is a limitation on the number of carriages that can be applied to one central cart – the sheer volume of transportation potential is often more than enough to transport even the largest amount of people.
Considered the ultimate mode of transport where time is a priority; planes far surpass buses when it comes to speed, although they do lose out to trains when considering the amount of passengers that can be transported. As planes still rely on traditional fuelling methods, they do emit high volumes of toxic fumes in to the atmosphere.
Planes are much fewer than buses, and even fewer still than trains. Statistically speaking, they are the safest method transport, when compared to trains, buses, cars and bicycles. This safety rating isn't down to the lower number of planes either – it's actually has more to do with their construction, their potential to repel damage from a range of sources, and their ability to avoid the most common cause of injury and death; collision.

02-23-2011, 11:52 AMIntern learns the hard way that its illegal to recite the Gettysburg Address on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial without a permit
On Presidents Day standing where the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his I Have a Dream Speech Phillip Howell, 25, recited Lincolns famous address and was quickly stopped by a Park Police officer. He told Howell that he could not give speeches on the steps of the memorial without a permit.
He called me Abe, and then I turned around and he said, Do you have a permit? I said no and he said, well you cant do that here then, Howell told The Daily Caller. Then I said, Im just giving the Gettysburg Address, come on, its Presidents Day. And he said, I dont care what youre giving, Youre not allowed to do that here. I dont care what speech or what agenda you want to give.
Confused as to why it is actually illegal to read the words carved into the memorials wall in a loud voice, but not wanting to cause any trouble, the 6-foot-4 Howell, who sports a thick beard and looks just like Honest Abe in a top hat and suit, moved to the bottom of the steps and delivered the rest of the speech to a cheering crowd.
But his troubles didnt end there.
UFB. I would have stopped and begun to recite the 1st amendment.

In Ohio, a new congressional district that stretches along Lake Erie between Toledo and Cleveland has become a political portrait of polarized America.
The 9th District is one of the results of Ohio's loss of two representatives following the last census. The primary for the redrawn district pitted two longtime Democratic incumbents against each other. Now the victor, Rep. Marcy Kaptur, is taking on a Republican known for his role in the 2008 presidential election.
In his working-class Toledo neighborhood, Joe Wurzelbacher can point out the very spot where, four years ago, he stepped in front of a TV camera trained on presidential candidate Barack Obama, who was in town canvassing for votes.
He told Obama that he was getting ready to buy a company that made more than $250,000 a year. "Your new tax plan is going to tax me more, isn't it?" he asked.
Candidate Obama proceeded to explain his tax plan, at one point saying that it was important to "spread the wealth around." That remark didn't play well for the Democrat, who was accused by GOP rival John McCain of being out of touch with the tax burden borne by working-class America — exemplified by "Joe the Plumber."
Four years later, Wurzelbacher has ridden his fame as "Joe the Plumber" into the role of GOP standard-bearer against Kaptur.
Dave Cohen of the University of Akron's Bliss Institute of Applied Politics says the candidates offer voters a stark choice.
"Marcy Kaptur represents, really, the consummate insider politician. She's been a fairly moderate Democrat, very strong on defense. And Wurzelbacher, he represents, really, the Tea Party movement — anti-establishment — and is very much respected and somewhat beloved by social conservatives," Cohen says. "The 9th District race is really a nice microcosm of the battles and the culture wars that are going on in the country right now."
Raising Money
The battle for the 9th District also demonstrates the financial challenges of mounting a modern political campaign. Kaptur says raising money is tough.
"We now have to advertise in two media markets, Cleveland and Toledo, and Cleveland is five times more expensive than the western part of the state," she says. "So, it's quite a daunting task, and there's never enough."
While Wurzelbacher can't match Kaptur's accumulated war chest and national contacts, he's using his renown as "Joe the Plumber" to attract campaign dollars.
"We have an online presence that's pretty huge," he says. "Part of that, obviously, comes from my run-in with Barack Obama. So, we can reach pretty much all of the country and fundraise."
Outside Dollars
But reaching all over the country has meant that more than three-quarters of each candidate's funding has come from outside Ohio, according to an NPR analysis of Federal Election Commission reports this cycle.
"That might show you how bad the economy is around here and how tight it is," Wurzelbacher says. "People don't want to give money; it's very difficult for them."
Kaptur argues that most of her funders, even those with outside addresses, have roots in Ohio. Still, she's concerned about how much of her time is devoted to fundraising.
"It's turned into an endless campaign, where you're having to raise all these very egregious amounts of money just to be able to compete," she says. "When you have some campaigns where you're raising 20 and 30 times more than the job pays, it's out of bounds."
And when the majority of that money is coming from outside donors, instead of constituents, it's likely to change the nature of the race.
