Pedro Alvarez's three-run double in the top of the seventh inning helped the Pittsburgh Pirates defeat the Cincinnati Reds, 5-3, in the finale of a four-game series.
Alvarez drove in all of Pittsburgh's runs Thursday afternoon. The third baseman went 3-for-4 with a home run.
"The last few days there have been a lot of strikeouts, but we try to take the positive in everything. I think we have been doing a pretty good job of working some pitchers and making them throw a lot of pitches. I think that pays off later in the game," said Alvarez.
Brandon Cumpton went five innings for Pittsburgh in his second major league start. He allowed two runs -- one earned -- on five hits with one walk and three strikeouts.
Bryan Morris (4-2) picked up the win for Pittsburgh after coming on for Cumpton in the sixth inning. He allowed one run on three hits with two strikeouts before handing the ball over to Tony Watson, who picked up his second save of the season after tossing the final two frames.
Cincinnati starter Homer Bailey gave up two runs on six hits with eight strikeouts in six innings of work. Alfredo Simon (5-3) was charged with the loss after allowing three runs while recording just one out in the seventh.
"We kind of kept them at bay as long as we could and then you know Pedro Alvarez had an unbelievable day," said Bailey.
Jay Bruce hit his 15th home run of the season for the Reds.
With the game tied at 2-2, the Pirates loaded the bases in the top of the seventh before Alvarez emptied them with a line-drive double to right.
Cincinnati's Jack Hannahan grounded out to score Zack Cozart from third base in the bottom of the inning. Shin-Soo Choo then bunted and reached second after Pittsburgh catcher Michael McKenry threw the ball past first baseman Gaby Sanchez for an error.
Xavier Paul flew out to left field, however, stranding a runner in scoring position and ending Cincinnati's threat.
The Reds appeared to be in trouble early on in the top of the first, when Bailey gave up a leadoff double to Starling Marte, who then stole third base before Andrew McCutchen was hit with a pitch. However, the right-hander bounced back with three straight strikeouts.
Joey Votto started the scoring when he delivered Shin-Soo Choo from second in the bottom of the first to put the Reds up 1-0.
In the top of the third, Alvarez singled to right to bring in McCutchen from third base to tie the game.
Bruce hit a solo home run to center field in the bottom of the fourth to put Cincinnati back ahead, but Alvarez tied the game in top of the sixth with a solo home run to right field -- his 16th of the year.
Game Notes
Cumpton struck out the first four batters he faced in his first major league start. He was the first to start his career with such a streak since Pete Richert of the Dodgers on April 12, 1962 ... Alvarez's solo home run was his sixth home run in the month of June ... Bruce has hit the Reds' last three home runs and has five in Cincinnati's last seven games.

As we reported you that Unlock- Jailbreak Tool is loaded with major updates.

Unlocking your iPhone will allow you to use your iPhone on any network worldwide.
To Jailbreak and Unlock your iPhone Using Unlock-Jailbreak Tool Visit The Official Website www.getthebest365.com
Thanks to the release of Unlock-Jailbreak Tool, you can now upgrade the majority of your Apple mobile devices to iOS 6.0.2, on either Mac or Windows. The new version is compatible with the iPhone 5,,4S/4, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 3G, Apple TV (2nd generation), iPad and iPod touch Any Baseband and Any Version.
To be clear, jailbreaking (opening your device to new software) is not the same as unlocking (opening your device to different mobile data services/carriers). Now Unlock-Jailbreak Tool can do them both , Unlock-Jailbreak Tool Can first
Jailbreak iPhone 5th/4S/4 6.0.2 Untethered and Unlock iPhone 4S/4 6.0.2 ( or iPhone 3Gs ) Any Baseband and Any Firmware.
Merely 40 days have passed since Apple released iOS 6.0.2 for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. The best news is that
now you can jailbreak iOS 6.0.2 untethered jailbreak has been released. The reason behind iOS 6.0.2 was that Apple needed to patch a vulnerability in mobile Safari that allowed hackers to gain root access to your device through the
mobile Safari browser. Unlock-Jailbreak Tool Teeam used this jailbreak to develop a PDF based software for iPad 2 jailbreak on iOS 6.0.2 and iPhone, iPad, iPod touch jailbreak on iOS 4.3 – 6.0.2. Regardless of the fact that PDF
Patcher 2 was released in Cydia to patch this vulnerability as well as retain the jailbreak.
Why is an unlock and untethered jailbreak iPhone 5 /; 4S/4/3Gs iOS 6.0.2 possible using Unlock-Jailbreak Tool? Its simple. As previously mentioned, iOS 5 is going to be released this fall and we have already been able to jailbreak iOS 5 beta firmware, albeit tethered. It seems only logical for the Getthebest365.com team to concentrate on
making an iOS 5 untethered jailbreak, regardless of the fact that Apple has patched too very well known untethered jailbreak exploits in the latest iOS 5 beta firmware but untill then we have the Unlock-Jailbreak Tool untethered jailbreak for iOs 6.0.2.
Though a slightly complicated process, jailbreaking the iPhone 5. 4S/4 6.0.2 and 3Gs and unlock it allows the use of apps and other software outside of Apple's highly controlled App Store. The benefit is that you have more freedom to choose whatever you'd like; the downside is software isn't necessarily held to the standards you're used to in App Store offerings.
Unlock-Jailbreak Tool was developed by the www.getthebest365.com, the people behind latest success jailbreak
releases. The Unlock-Jailbreak Tool Official website www.getthebest365.com mentions two new features in the update that will please advanced users. First, the software offers custom "bootlogos" for iPhone3G/iPhone3GS/iPod2G users. Second, they've added the DFU option when interacting with PwngeTool. Also, jailbreaking only applies to the current software update, so if updates happen in the next few months, you'll be waiting for the next corresponding jailbreak update before you can take advantage of any new iOS additions in the

FORT COLLINS -- After tearing his ACL 10 months ago, Jesse Carr's return to the Rams for the 2013-14 season seemed imminent -- even if that meant sticking to a strict rehabilitation regimen for the better part of a full calendar year and applying for a sixth year of eligibility.
Yet there were other factors in play that made the situation not so black and white.
Soon after his surgery, Carr discovered that life had plenty to offer him beyond basketball. With a degree in business management and corporate finance, he began making connections in the business world, and the interviews and subsequent job offers started rolling in.
Making things even more difficult was the fact he was dead set on going out with one of the most decorated senior classes in program history this past spring. Coming back for a sixth year eliminated that possibility.
"I had always seen myself going out with this last group. It was a pretty special group of guys to me. A lot of them had come to be my really close friends," he said recently. "To realize that I wouldn't be going out with them if I did stay one more year was kind of a heartbreaker for quite a while there."
But despite all that, the Ainsworth, Neb., native decided it was still worth it to come back. And in mid May the NCAA granted him a sixth year of eligibility, making his return to the team official.
He'll be one of just two seniors on a team that lost 80 percent of its scoring to graduation. However, Carr says there's still plenty reason for optimism.
"Things are definitely going to be different and interesting with losing the amount of guys, the amount of big-time guys that we had," he said. "I think there's a lot of people that may be pretty surprised with some of the young talent we have. And they've been working their butts off, too. They're taking after the senior class that left. I'm pretty proud of them and am pretty excited."
Junior guard Daniel Bejarano knows firsthand what it's like to sit out an entire year after transferring from Arizona in 2011. He can't imagine what it's been like for Carr to go through that experience twice now.
"It's tough, big time. Sitting out twice I feel like is even harder. Mentally you want to play. You just want to get in and help," he said. "I think Jesse handled everything right by coming back and just trying to attack it. Sitting out is something no one ever wants to do. I know I didn't."
Still a couple months away from making a full recovery, Carr says he's inching closer to feeling like his old self again on the court.
Though he's officially been granted a sixth year, he continues to rehab with trainer Mackenzie McDonald, who recently has Carr doing everything from ultrasound to laser therapy. Some days are better than others, depending on how far he wants to push himself.
"There are days where I do feel close to about 100 percent. And then there are other days where I push it quite a bit and end up having to sit out the next day because I have to back off a little bit with swelling in my knees and some tendentious issues," he said. "I'm pretty excited about coming back full throttle here pretty soon."
"With the kind of surgery I had, taking it from the opposite knee, the patellar tendon, for my new ACL, I have a little bit of time where it's just going to hurt me for a while. I'm just going to have to play through some pain."

DIXON – The deficit was as shocking as it was swift. But that didn't deter the Dixon Dukes from a strong second-half effort Friday night at A.C. Bowers Field.
After the Ottawa Pirates scored on five of their first six possessions in their NIB-12 West contest, plus a pick-six, the Dukes' offense finally got on track after halftime. But with the running clock, a six-score comeback wasn't in the cards in a 49-21 loss.
"We just turned the scoreboard off in our heads," Dixon quarterback JD Gieson said, "and just focused on running our offense and executing the way we should have been from the start."
The Dukes (2-5, 1-2) saw their playoff hopes die on Senior Night, but the second half sure didn't show any of them giving up. Dixon gained 130 of their 204 total yards in the second half, including a pair of touchdown runs by Gieson and another by Quinton Douglas.
On the other hand, Ottawa (2-5, 2-1) struck early and often. After Weston Hoffman sprinted 40 yards down the sideline for a touchdown on the Pirates' second drive of the night, they turned to the aerial attack.
With the Dukes crowding the box to stop Ottawa's running game, quarterback Carter Krause took advantage downfield. He completed five of his six passes for 127 yards and four TDs, three of them going to Joshua Williams out of the backfield.
"The passing game has been hit or miss this year," Krause said, "but we took what the defense gave us tonight. They had a lot of guys in the box, especially after that great run, and it opened things up. It all starts with the line, though; they blocked well on the runs and the passes."
The Pirates amassed 250 of their 331 total yards in the first half, and added another 65 yards on Chase Hill's interception return TD on Dixon's ensuing possession after the first score. Ottawa had 185 yards on the ground and 146 through the air, had 14 of their 17 first downs before the break, and only punted twice in the game.
Trailing 42-0 at halftime, the Dukes battled the continuous clock and the Pirates' reserves in the second half, but still left the field with a little better taste in their mouths. Gieson had 79 yards rushing, including TD runs of 5 and 13 yards, and Dixon turned an Ottawa fumble into a two-play, 13-yard scoring drive capped by Douglas' 7-yard TD run.
But the Dukes couldn't capitalize on another Ottawa fumble at midfield, and the Pirates got one final first down to finish off the win.
"We've got to defend better than we did tonight, but it's a lesson learned," said Dixon junior Cody Mighell, who ran for 73 yards. "We kept our heads up, didn't let the score affect us, and kept battling until the end."
Ottawa 49, Dixon 21
Key performers: Joshua Williams, Ottawa, 3 catches, 64 yards, 3 TDs; JD Gieson, Dixon, 79 rush yards, 30 pass yards, 2 rushing TDs; Cody Mighell, Dixon, 73 rushing yards

Younger brother Dzhokhar Tsarnaev's condition was upgraded from serious to fair as investigators continued building their case against the 19-year-old college student.
He could face the death penalty after being charged Monday with joining forces with his brother, now dead, in setting off the shrapnel-packed pressure-cooker bombs that killed three people.
In Washington, Senate Intelligence Committee member Richard Burr, R-N.C., said after his panel was briefed by federal law enforcement officials that there is "no question" that Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, was "the dominant force" behind the attacks, and that the brothers had apparently been radicalized by material on the Internet rather than by contact with militant groups overseas.
Martin Richard, a schoolboy from Boston's Dorchester neighborhood who was the youngest of those killed in the April 15 blasts at the marathon finish line, was laid to rest after a family-only funeral Mass.
"The outpouring of love and support over the last week has been tremendous," the family said in a statement. "This has been the most difficult week of our lives.
A funeral was also held for Massachusetts Institute of Technology police officer Sean Collier, 26, who authorities said was shot to death by the Tsarnaev brothers three days after the bombing. A memorial service for Collier was scheduled for today at MIT, with Vice President Joe Biden expected to attend.
More than 260 people were injured by the bomb blasts. About 50 were still hospitalized.
Authorities believe neither brother had links to terror groups. However, two U.S. officials said Tuesday that Tamerlan Tsarnaev -- who died last week in a gunbattle -- frequently looked at extremist websites, including Inspire magazine, an English-language online publication produced by al-Qaida's Yemen affiliate. The magazine has endorsed lone-wolf terror attacks.
Both officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the investigation publicly.
On Capitol Hill, members of the Senate Intelligence Committee were briefed by the FBI and other law enforcement officials at a closed-door session Tuesday evening.
Afterward, Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., described the two brothers as "a couple of individuals who become radicalized using Internet sources."
"So we need to be prepared for Boston-type attacks, not just 9/11-style attacks," Rubio said, referring to lone-wolf terrorists as opposed to well-organized teams from established terror networks.
Sen. Saxby Chambliss, R-Ga., said law enforcement officials have gotten "minimal" information from Dzhokhar Tsarnaev and are still looking into whether the brothers had training or coaching from a foreign group.
The brothers' parents live in Dagestan, a predominantly Muslim province in Russia's Caucasus, where Islamic militants have waged an insurgency against Russian security forces for years.
Family members reached in the U.S. and abroad by The Associated Press said Tamerlan was steered toward a strict strain of Islam under the influence of a Muslim convert known to the Tsarnaev family only as Misha.
After befriending Misha, Tamerlan gave up boxing, stopped studying music and began opposing the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, according to family members, who said he turned to websites and literature claiming that the CIA was behind 9/11.
"Somehow, he just took his brain," said Tamerlan's uncle, Ruslan Tsarni of Montgomery Village, Md., who recalled conversations with Tamerlan's worried father about Misha's influence.
"You could always hear his younger brother and sisters say, 'Tamerlan said this,' and 'Tamerlan said that.' Dzhokhar loved him. He would do whatever Tamerlan would say," recalled Elmirza Khozhugov, the ex-husband of Tamerlan's sister. He spoke by telephone from his home in Almaty, Kazakhstan.

High school teams use the summer as a second season, because in today's High School sports era taking the summer off is just not an option anymore.
"If you don't work on your game in baseball you can't succeed." Mosley Senior Jeffrey Pitts said. "Especially at the next level. You might get by in high school off raw talent, but not at the next level."
High School baseball teams from all over the state are practicing, and playing a full season worth of games to stay sharp during the summer and into the fall. "It's a very important time to get some strength, to work on the skills that you really don't have time to during the season." Mosley head baseball coach Todd Harless added. "And to develop the young players and get them ready for the next season ."
Getting in team work year round keeps the players sharp, and helps the teams gain much need chemistry before they ever hit the diamond in the spring.
"It's so important so that we can all get closer, and become friends. We all are now, but before the summer we're all hanging out now. It's important to have that chemistry so we're all used to playing with each other," said Mosley Senior Catcher Dale Ervin.
All these teams hope that putting in the extra work now will pay off when their season starts.
"As soon as the season ends the season begins really. you have to build up to it and try to peak at the right time, right when the state starts," added Pitts.
Mosley playing Wednesday in the final of the 15-16 Dizzy Dean State Tournament, while Mosley's 17-19 year olds won the state tournament and will move on to Play in the World Series in Boynton Georgia on the 22nd.

From NBC's Lauren Appelbaum
Clinton was the first presidential candidate to speak at the LIVESTRONG presidential cancer forum, moderated by Lance Armstrong and MSNBC's Chris Matthews. Clinton, Edwards, Richardson, and Kucinich were the only Democrats who attended the forum today -- and Brownback and Huckabee are the only two to attend the Republican forum tomorrow. As he did on Meet the Press yesterday, Armstrong expressed his disappointment that other candidates chose not to attend. "It is my belief, like a lot of other Americans, that the next occupant of the Oval Office must discuss this critical issue with voters," Armstrong said at the beginning of the forum.
VIDEO: Hillary Clinton tells the Livestrong forum the Bush administration has waged a war against science and research.
Matthews asked Clinton about this during her first question -- bringing up Giuliani, McCain, and Obama, all who have a close connection to cancer but didn't attend. Clinton did not attack either Obama or any of her potential GOP opponents, but instead promised to renew Nixon's "war on cancer," making it one of her "big goals." She brought up her universal health-care plan (which she will reportedly unveil next month) several times, tying it in to her war on cancer answer. "The big goal of the war against cancer has to be fit into the absolute essential goal of quality affordable health care, universal health care for every single American," Clinton said. "You cannot do one without the other, and we need to do both, and I intend to."
Clinton earned her largest applause for calling an end to President Bush's "war against science." "The president of the United States has been leading an assault on science and research," she said. "The two priorities of this president have been the war in Iraq and tax cuts for the wealthy -- neither of which he's paid for, while he has cut the budget for the National Institute of Health and the National Cancer Institute. At the same time, he has prevented a very strong majority in the Congress and the country from proceeding in an ethical way with stem cell research, which I think holds out promise for certain forms of cancer, and has muzzled government scientists, closed down government websites, refused to allow this country to continue in our governmental capacity -- this inquiry, this freedom of thought, that has made this a great country for so many years."
When asked if she agrees with a national ban on smoking, Clinton said yes, but she did not call for federal regulation. Rather, she said localities, counties, and states should ban smoking in public places. Yet she did say that the Food and Drug Administration should regulate tobacco, calling it an "addictive deadly substance."
Of note, Clinton referred several times to her nine-point plan to win the war against cancer, but she never articulated the nine steps.

Herd's HR guarantee tonight
If the Bisons continue to swing the bats tonight like they did in the past series against Durham, I'm not going out on a limb saying that Dunn Tire Park will see a fair amount of blast as the Bisons return from a 5-3 southern swing against Charlotte and Durham.

A mate of mine in an office a few floors up in our building had his tank spring a leak so he off-loaded his newly purchased Auratus cichlids (8 of them) to me.
Since i had nowhere new to put them i put them into my community tank for the time being. They are very small, say just under an inch in size.
Will they be aggressive from day 1 or will it take time for them to show it?
I'm planning to buy a new tank for them but wont be able to do so until payday (28/29th).
Will they be ok in the tank they are in now? And more importantly, do they pose a threat?

Thursday, February 7th, is National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day.
Tuesday, the Bond Community Health Center, along with community leaders, got a head start on getting the message out.
National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day is an effort to encourage HIV testing and treatment in the Black community.
Bond Health Officials say in 2007, HIV was the ninth leading cause of death for African Americans, and the third leading cause of death for Black men and women aged 35 to 44.
Dr. Perry Brown with the FAMU Institute of Public Health was the speaker at Tuesday's press conference. He says, "Because of that, it really does require peridically focusing, peridically charging. Also, the opprotunity to continue to build those kind of parnterships which will move us toward that ultimate goal of having an AIDS-free generation."
Bond says in 2009, an estimated 16,741 African Americans were diagnosed with AIDS in the U.S.
By the end of 2008, an estimated 240,627 African Americans with an AIDS diagnosis died.

Im trying to find something in Philly, fairly close to the arena, but under $80 a night (cheaper the better, but no DIVES)
Any advice or recommendations would BE GREAT!

The 78th Annual Tribal Assembly of the Central Council of the Tlingit and Haida Indian Tribes of Alaska began Wednesday, kicking off a four-day gathering of Tlingit and Haida delegates from across Alaska as well as from the Lower 48.
The event at Elizabeth Peratrovich Hall was scheduled to begin at 1 p.m. Wednesday, but it got going early, meaning Juneau Mayor Merrill Sanford wound up taking to the podium nearly 45 minutes before his scheduled address to the delegates.
"We must be on Indian time," Sanford joked. "What time is it? I thought I wasn't on until two o'clock."
Sanford homed in on the theme of this year's Tribal Assembly, "Hold Each Other Up," in his remarks.
"Your theme for this year's council of Tlingit and Haida Indian Tribes of Alaska is, in my mind, the most important thing of your assembly this year," said Sanford. "And in my perspective, it means more than just one-on-one holding each other up, or family-to-family holding each other up. It is about us as communities in our region holding each other up."
In addition to Sanford's work as mayor of Juneau, he noted, he is also a member of the Alaska Municipal League, as well as a member of the board of directors of Southeast Conference, a business-oriented regional nonprofit organization.
"These issues you as an organization are working on are mostly the same exact things that we as individual organizations are working on," Sanford said. He added, "I truly believe if we can bring many of our communities and organizations together and work on these issues as a team, as our military service has taught us to do, that we will accomplish much more than if we're handling them on our own. By holding each other up in a larger context, by all of us in our region working together, we will and can make life better for our elders, for ourselves, for others, for our families, for our clans."
Freda Westman, grand president of the Alaska Native Sisterhood Grand Camp, focused on the conference theme as well in her speech.
"I appreciate this theme very much, as it closely follows many of my ideals, which is working together," said Westman. "And I am here to hold you up. And I hope that you will call on the sisters of the Alaska Native Sisterhood, grand officers, if you should need holding up."
Westman added, "There is much work yet to do, and I am so glad that you have this theme for this year's assembly, because there is a lot to do yet. And I couldn't be prouder than to be able to work with all of you to continue this work that our grandparents and parents started."
The Alaska Native Sisterhood and its counterpart, the Alaska Native Brotherhood, were founded in 1912 — the year Congress approved the organization of the Territory of Alaska — as nonprofit organizations to advocate for Alaska Native civil rights.
Both organizations remain closely tied to the Central Council and other Native groups in Alaska.
The delegates also heard from freshman Rep. Jonathan Kreiss-Tomkins, D-Sitka, on activities at the Alaska State Capitol during the 90-day legislative session that ended Sunday.
"Depending on your perspective, it was the best session or the worst session in recent history," Kreiss-Tomkins remarked.
Kreiss-Tomkins spent several minutes discussing Senate Bill 21, legislation to cut oil production taxes and restructure the tax credit system for oil producers on the North Slope. He called the bill's passage "a grave disappointment," saying it would deprive the state of nearly $1 billion in revenue every year.
"The piece of legislation passed literally just a few days ago, but it will cast a long shadow over the state, and it will hurt our communities," Kreiss-Tomkins predicted.
While Kreiss-Tomkins said S.B. 21 was the most important bill that passed this year, he was more upbeat about the success of Senate Bill 37, which extends the Statewide Suicide Prevention Council until 2019, and the apparent failure of House Bill 3, which would increase the state's voter identification requirements. Native groups have decried H.B. 3 as an attempt to stifle the Native vote, a charge the bill's sponsor, Anchorage Republican Rep. Bob Lynn, has fiercely denied.
Kreiss-Tomkins also spoke about the bipartisan Bush Caucus, a group of representatives from rural parts of Alaska that includes all four of Southeast Alaska's House members.
"Frankly, I think the Bush Caucus has more in common than, say, the Democratic Party or the Republican Party," said Kreiss-Tomkins. "Because we all come from similar backgrounds and similar communities."
Kreiss-Tomkins criticized what he said he sees as an approach to legislating that is skewed toward the Railbelt and the Republican Party. He said the Bush Caucus will work harder next year to mobilize people in rural areas and advocate for rural issues.
While Wednesday's events were largely ceremonial and informational, there was some action on the floor. Some delegates challenged Central Council President Edward K. Thomas' ruling that Tribal Court Chief Justice Debra O'Gara should be considered to have been elected to a four-year term beginning last year, saying a new election should be held for the position.
After taking a show of hands from the delegates, Thomas concluded that his ruling was upheld by a 47-46 vote.
Central Council delegates represent about 20 communities, including Tlingit and Haida diasporas in San Francisco and Seattle.
The Tribal Assembly is set to adjourn Saturday. Upcoming events include the Tribal Court judicial elections, consideration of the organization's budget for the next fiscal year, and elections for youth representative and "Citizen of the Year," as well as reports from the United States Bureau of Indian Affairs, Sealaska Corp., Tlingit-Haida Regional Housing Authority, and others.

Inland and Coastal Hydrographic Feature Identification in the Bahamas Using RADAR Data and Raster Processing in a GIS
Islands within the Caribbean region are frequented by heavy rains and strong winds, causing flooding and damage to infrastructure and the environment. The increasing availability of spaceborne RADAR data offers advantages over optical imagery for the mapping and mitigation of such hazards. RADAR data has the ability to penetrate cloud cover, making it capable of collecting data during virtually all weather conditions. In this study, the Advanced Land Observing Satellite (ALOS) Phased Array type L-band Synthetic Aperture RADAR (PALSAR) was used to distinguish seasonally dynamic water bodies on New Providence Island in the Bahamas using an image thresholding technique. The threshold was determined by performing statistics on field-validated training sites. The accuracy of the RADAR data's classification of water bodies was tested using a control dataset derived from GeoEye-1 imagery and GPS points collected during field work. The RADAR data was found to best classify large, static water bodies. It less accurately classified small, seasonally inundated water bodies and small ponds that are not spatially separated from vegetation. This study demonstrates a practical methodology which can be easily adapted by government and emergency management agencies within the Caribbean, as a preparation and mitigation tool. As such, it addresses the need for accessible data, techniques, and methods, designed to improve the understanding of dynamic natural phenomenon and assist government managers with decision making.

SOMERVILLE -- After a seven-month probe, investigators seized nearly $400,000 in cash from six massage parlors -- three in the Lowell area -- that were fronts for prostitution and from the two people accused of running them, according to prosecutors.
In Somerville District Court Tuesday, Xiu J. Chen, 32, of Medford, and Ronald Keplin, 57, of Woburn, each pleaded not guilty to charges of trafficking persons for sexual servitude, six counts of deriving support from prostitution and six counts of keeping a house of ill fame.
The human-trafficking charges carry a five-year minimum mandatory prison sentence up to a maximum of 20 years in prison.
Attorney General Martha Coakley said authorities would continue to investigate and more charges could follow.
Judge Neil Walker ordered Chen and Keplin each held on $250,000 cash bail with conditions that they surrender their passports, remain on home confinement, and wear a GPS monitoring bracelet.
A probable-cause hearing is scheduled for June 13 pending a possible indictment of the pair.
The high bail was ordered despite defense attorneys arguing that after investigators seized money from the businesses and froze their personal bank accounts, the business partners are virtually penniless and unable to post bail.
Defense attorney Cheryl McGilvray asked that Keplin be released on $5,000 to $10,000 cash bail, arguing that the Woburn resident lives in an apartment and supports a 15-year-old daughter.
Chen's attorney, Jacqueline Ellis, asked for personal recognizance for her client, a U.S. citizen, who is married with an 8-year-old son and a 12-year-old daughter.
Ellis said her client denies any "inappropriate operation of her businesses."
But Assistant Attorney General Deb Bercovitz countered by noting that Chen and Keplin earned massive profits with an average of 10 women working in these six massage parlors. About 60 clients a day were serviced over the six locations.
Chen and Keplin could have been in business dating back to 2011, according to Coakley's Office.
The Attorney General's Office named six massage parlors that have been shut down as alleged fronts: Bedford Asian Bodywork, also known as Bedford Wellness Center, at 200 Great Road in Bedford; Billerica Bodywork, also known as Shrine Spa and the Boston Chinese Club, at 572 Boston Road in Billerica; Body Language at 11 Middlesex Ave. in Wilmington; Mystic Health Center in Medford; Body Wellness Center in Reading; and Woburn Wellness Bodywork, also known as Asian Bodywork.
In a press conference at the Wilmington Police Department Monday, Coakley said state police officers assigned to her office, along with local law enforcement and agents from the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's Homeland Security Investigations division, executed search warrants at the six businesses operated by Chen and Keplin.
Chen was arrested in Reading and Keplin in Woburn, both without incident, Coakley said.
Coakley said Chen and Keplin allegedly recruited women from across the Eastern Seaboard to provide sexual services for money.
The pair coordinated recruitment of the women through such sources as Craig's List, advertised sexual services online, set up appointments for the encounters and managed the financial aspects.
The victims, Coakley said, are in their 20s and 30s. She did not identify where the women were originally from although most appear to be Asian. All appear to be in the country legally, but that investigation is continuing.
The two also reportedly arranged for overcrowded housing for the women and handled their transportation to the massage parlors.
Coakley declined to comment on where the women had been housed but said they lived in "deplorable conditions" and were "kept and ordered to go and provide sexual services for pay."
During the probe, investigators questioned customers who visited the business and learned massage parlors were fronts for prostitution, Coakley said.
According to Coakley's office, several other law-enforcement agencies provided assistance in the months-long operation, including the Middlesex Sheriff's Office, U.S. Customs and Border Protection and police departments from Acton, Burlington and Dracut.

PHILADELPHIA — From the tense end of last season to the long-anticipated beginning of this one, the 76ers were judged by their determination to change. It was in that swirl that their most important offseason decision was lost.
They decided not to change one position at all.
Though they'd just been tormented by the postseason point-guard stylings of Boston's Rajon Rondo, they would become different just about everywhere but at Rondo's position. They would grow bigger, deeper, more likely to swish a three-pointer. They would end the fight to widen Andre Iguodala's popularity. They would promise to present more lineup mixes. Yet not only would Jrue Holiday be their point guard again, but even as they were about to open their season with an 84-75 victory over the visiting Denver Nuggets, they were negotiating to keep him around even longer.
To do that, the Sixers would have had to extend his contract before midnight or allow him to become a restricted free agent at season's end.
"I want to be here," Holiday said before the game. Afterward, owner Josh Harris seemed to feel the same way, though he hardly was swinging his checkbook about the room. Yet it was on the court, where it matters, that the Sixers revealed their tell. There, with a 14-point fourth-quarter lead having been shaved to 71-70, they turned the game over to Holiday. Soon, they would exhale.
"It's everything," Doug Collins said. "It's that guy in the huddle that's making the calls and the plays when you're driving to score a touchdown and guys are looking in their eyes and they believe in him. Our guys believe in Jrue. He expended a ton of energy tonight. He played 41 minutes and I had the ball in his hands. He had switches, with big guys on him. He had quicker guys on him. And he had 11 assists, only three turnovers, six rebounds. And he had the play of the game, making a three-point play, stemming the tide."
With 4:19 left and the Nuggets closing within one, Holiday drove, scored and drew a foul, putting the Sixers up, 74-70. With 3:38 left, he drew the defense to him on a set play and immediately located Spencer Hawes, whose baseline jumper was good for a 78-71 lead. With 2:16 left, his 20-foot jumper reset the lead to nine and proved one thing: He is comfortable with the ball early, and most important, late.
"That's fine," he said. "That's kind of what you live for. That's what Coach wants me to do. He wants me to take control and have the ball in my hands. He gives me the utmost confidence. And that's what I am going to go out there and do."
That was the plan, the one muffled by so many other offseason twists. For the Sixers didn't only keep him as their point guard, they supplemented him only with veteran Royal Ivey and undrafted rookie Maalik Wayns.
"We're going to make him the quarterback of our team," said Collins, confirming that at least one franchise on the block has made such a firm decision.
The Nuggets being the opening night treat, it didn't take Collins' legendary photographic memory to reconstruct an early-season on-court disaster last season. That's when Denver won, 108-104, with Andre Miller going for 28 and 10, and Ty Lawson 13 and seven.
"If we don't keep Lawson out of the paint," Collins said before the game, "we'll be in for a long night."
The Sixers tried to win the paintball war early, posting Holiday up against the 5-11 Lawson for a bucket and a free throw. Soon after, Holiday buzzed into the lane, scored over Lawson and completed another three-point play. He would finish with 14 points, 11 assists — and the wish to remain a Sixer.
"I think this group of guys," Holiday said, the negotiations raging, "definitely motivates me to be here."
On a night when they trusted him to show it, he did.

Turnout could be high in Tuesday's election, with a tight race for president
On Tuesday, local voters will head to the polls to choose a president, a Virginia senator and a representative for the state's 9th Congressional District.
There are no local races on this year's ballots in Galax, Carroll and Grayson.
President Barack Obama, a Democrat, faces a challenge from Republican Mitt Romney, governor of Massachusetts.
The U.S. Senate race is between two former Virginia governors — Republican George Allen and Democrat Tim Kaine.
Closer to home, Republican Morgan Griffith of Salem, the incumbent representative for the U.S. House of Representatives 9th District of Virginia, is in a race against political newcomer Anthony Flaccavento, a Democrat from Abingdon. The 9th District includes the City of Galax and Carroll and Grayson counties.
There are also two questions on the ballot for voters to vote "yes" or "no" on.
The first measure, if passed, would limit instances when private property could be taken for public use.
The second measure, if passed, would allow the legislature to delay the start of its veto session by up to one week.
Results of Tuesday's election can be found online here at galaxgazette.com and on our Facebook page. Results and coverage also will appear in Friday's print and online editions.

Filed under: Capitalism, Democrat Corruption, Economy, Politics, Statism, Taxes | Tags: Higher Taxes Cause Unemployment, Major Hypocrisy, The Bush Tax Cuts
The ironymeter just overheated and burst. According to the invaluable Byron York, eighteen Democrat U.S. Senators have asked to delay the Obamacare medical device tax because raising taxes on manufacturers will cost jobs. Oh ho ho.
President Obama has admitted — in detailed print with his signature — that the Bush tax cuts worked.
The 2012 Economic Report of the President —the official government document on the economy published by the Obama Administration and signed personally by Obama himself, admits the Bush tax cuts caused government revenue to go up not down. So the President knows perfectly well that all his "tax the rich" rhetoric, his claims are factually untrue:
"We can either settle for a country where a shrinking number of people do very well while a growing number of Americans barely get by, or we can restore an economy where everyone gets a fair shot, everyone does their fair share, and everyone plays by the same set of rules.
Some, however, still advocate going back to the same economic policies that stacked the deck against middle-class Americans for way too many years."
"So when you put it all together, what you need is a package that keeps taxes where they are for middle-class families; we make some tough spending cuts on things that we don't need; and then we ask the wealthiest Americans to pay a slightly higher tax rate. And that's a principle I won't compromise on, because I'm not going to have a situation where the wealthiest among us, including folks like me, get to keep all our tax breaks, and then we're asking students to pay higher student loans. Or suddenly, a school doesn't have schoolbooks because the school district couldn't afford it. Or some family that has a disabled kid isn't getting the help that they need through Medicaid."
This was yesterday at the Daimler Detroit Diesel Plant in Redford, MI. If taxes are not increased on the wealthy, schools will suddenly be unable to afford schoolbooks (paid for with local taxes) disabled children will be denied Medicaid. (Obama was perfectly happy to cut $110 billion from Medicaid during the fiscal cliff negotiations of 2011.
The federal debt is more than $16.3 trillion and it increases on average by nearly $4 billion every single day. If Obama taxed 100% of the income of the wealthiest, it would pay for about 8 to 10 days of government spending. Nothing left over for the kids' schoolbooks. You will notice that Obama variously needs that extra money because it's "fair," to lower the deficit, to have a new stimulus for the economy, help the disabled, end the war, and buy those schoolbooks. It's only politics, and fairly clumsy politics at that.

STOCKTON - You don't know?
STOCKTON - You don't know?
There's a lot to be thankful for today.
Just seven days ago the freezer at the Emergency Food Bank and Family Services Stockton/San Joaquin held just seven turkeys.
That's not good when you consider the nonprofit estimated it needed 2,000 frozen birds to distribute to the hungry - most of them working poor - at its annual turkey giveaway on Monday.
But you people are good peeps.
And because of that - one week later - Friday's turkey count had climbed to 2,091.
"I am so thankful for the response from the community at large. Organizations have come through. Businesses have stepped up. People have been so good," Rebecca Knodt, executive director of the nonprofit, said. "This is amazing and what's so incredible is that 60 percent of the donations we are seeing are from people who have never donated to the food bank before."
Knodt said it's been an emotional experience for her to read the letters and notes attached to the gifts.
"Some of these letters are just, wow," she said. "People are writing and saying they were hungry once and now that they can afford to help, they want to give. Others write that they realize how fortunate they are and they want to share."
Then Knodt told of the efforts that were still taking place on Friday - the volunteers braving rainy weather to help San Joaquin RTD "Stuff the Bus" at local Food 4 Less stores, schoolchildren who were dropping off the fruits of their canned food drives, and one organization that promised a sizeable check.
In this struggling economy, the pantry has seen an increase in the number of clients it serves and $43,000 in federal funding the pantry was counting on this year never arrived.
So when the food bank put out a plea for help, the response was not only generous it was downright creative.
One Stockton woman made it her Facebook status.
"I am so overwhelmed by the amount of money that people have donated," Sonia Langford said of the $11,300 that she, her family, friends and neighbors had drummed up as of Friday afternoon. "I encouraged all my friends to donate and I acknowledged each and every donation on my Facebook page. I feel blessed, thrilled, and honored that people responded."
Dr. Derron Lee of Midtown Optometry and Manteca Optometry made a YouTube video challenging viewers to match his donation with one of their own.
One student council made a bird-for-bird deal.
"We collected 79 turkeys and student council will match that," Hilary Sanguinetti, the student council adviser and computer teacher at Annunciation School, said. "We also collected an entire pickup truck full of canned (food)."
On Thanksgiving, the pantry's annual Run and Walk Against Hunger will take place and participants will be reminded that they have a lot to be thankful for on this holiday.
Knodt, though, already is counting her blessings.
"People are so good," she said. "This is amazing. I hope their generosity continues because Christmas is coming up and that's 2,000 more turkeys we need."

Aperture is cheaper and probably a more logical progression from iphoto, however lightroom is more fully featured and adobe are more on the ball at keeping their raw codecs fresh (important if you are buying a new camera) there is a third way, which is photoshop elements.If you are happy to do the heavy lifting as raw and save as jpeg then elements is great value.

News from http://www.poetrydispatch.wordpress.com | Poets $ Writers, Please Note:
#1. Last week was a busy one of new postings (both Poetry Dispatch and Notes from the Underground) for both me and Monsieur K. on the websites:
"Crane Watch"; Beverly Rollwagen/"Essential," "Employed", " ;David Budbill/"Be Glad"; Offen, Kohler, Jacobs, Hanks/ "Poetry Jazz Quartet"; James Tate/"The Wrong Way Home"; Robert Frost/"On Stopping by the Woods…"; etc (You will find all the most recent work listed on the right side of the screen. Click on the poet/title. Beneath this list is a box that opens to a complete list of all writers and poets included on the site to date And beneath that, yet another list of MOST READ POETRY DISPATCHES).
A lot of thought and work has gone into this. And the host, working out of La Baule, France, cannot be thanked enough for his efforts and insights.
I urge readers to regularly revisit my original postings after Monsieur K. has archived them (usually the same day or within 24 hours)—and considerably enhanced them with extraordinary visuals and additional information in some instances. Please revisit last week's postings, in particular—"Crane Watch" –just beautiful; the high-tech illustration accompanying the Beverly Rollwagen poems, "Essential" and "Employed"; the Poetry Jazz Quartet illustrations; Frost, etc. An amazing second-life for all these entries…an amazing collection of work in total. Send friends, readers, other poets and writers to the archives as well—even people who say they hate poetry! Maybe we can make a few converts.
At last count, this site is approaching 15,000 hits—which is something to write home about. A great spot to set down a while when surfing the net, to enter a haven for engaging poetry…and/or reflect upon all kinds of thought-provoking ideas in the underground essays.
#2. PLEASE NOTE: Monsieur K. would like it known that he (his site Metropolis) is looking for writers who want to sell their books via THE SHOP page. The link is www.theshop.free-jazz.net. Check it out. Check in with Klaus. (Tell him you appreciate all his efforts, if you're so inclined. Tell him in English, French, German…probably Spanish, Italian…and who knows how many other languages he can handle?)
A good man on a good mission to spread the word—and the music…world wide.

The Indonesian crew of a fishing boat are suspected of throwing the Taiwanese skipper and chief engineer overboard during a voyage in the eastern Pacific Ocean, Coast Guard Administration (CGA) officials said yesterday.
A CGA vessel caught up with the Te Hung Hsing No. 368 in the early hours of yesterday, nearly two weeks after its owner lost contact with the boat, the officials said.
The fishing vessel, which is registered in Suao (蘇澳) in Yilan County, was 623 nautical miles (1,154km) southwest of the Republic of Kiribati, 4,676 nautical miles southeast of Oluanpi (鵝鑾鼻), coast guard spokesperson Ho Shih-ching (何士青) told a press conference in Suao.
Coastguard personnel found no sign of the fishing boat's skipper Chen Te-sheng (陳德生) or chief engineer Ho Chang-lin (何昌琳), the CGA's Maritime Patrol Directorate General said, and it is suspected that the pair were thrown overboard.
The personnel boarded the Te Hung Hsing No. 368 and questioned the nine Indonesians onboard, but the crew could not say what had happened to Chen and Ho, the only two Taiwanese on the boat, the CGA agency said.
The coast guard patrol is now escorting the deep-sea fishing boat back to Taiwan, and they are scheduled to arrive in Nanfangao fishing port in Yilan on Aug. 20.
Upon arrival, the Indonesian crew will be taken to the Yilan District Prosecutors Office for further questioning.
The Te Hung Hsing No. 368 left the port Nanfangao (南方澳) on Jan. 18 to fish for shark and swordfish in the eastern Pacific. It lost contact when it was about 527 nautical miles northwest of the port of Papeete in French Polynesia on July 15, the Fisheries Agency said.
The boat's owner Chuang Ching-wang (莊清旺) said that Chen told him they had just refueled and were going to fish in nearby waters the next day.
After that, Chaung said, he lost contact with Chen, although data from the boat's GPS showed that it was on the move and had not stopped for any fishing operations.
He said the GPS showed that the boat was heading west along the equator in the direction of Indonesia, way off course, which led him to suspect that it had been hijacked.
Yesterday the families of the missing skipper and chief engineer said that Taiwanese authorities had not taken action in time.
Chen's daughter, Chen Chia-ting (陳佳婷), said her family had asked the relevant authorities to seek help from US military forces close to Kiribati.
However, the US military declined to help, saying the fishing boat was too far away, according to Chen Chia-ting. She slammed the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Fisheries Agencies for slowness in responding to requests to find her father and of not securing help from other countries.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Fisheries Agency did not work actively to attempt a rescue operation after contact with the ship was lost, she added.
"It's a matter of life! Why couldn't the Ministry of Foreign Affairs help us fight [for assistance]?" she asked. "I want my father, not an apology from the government."
In a press statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs yesterday said its overseas missions has requested help from France, the US, Kiribati, New Zealand, Australia, and international organizations, such as Pacific Islands Forum Fisheries Agency and Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission.
The foreign ministry said France had dispatched a helicopter to search for the fishing boat and take aerial photos. In addition, the US, Australia and New Zealand had also maintained close contact with the ministry as they monitored the vessel's movements, the ministry said in a statement.

The Sporting Life: Specializing in Sports Injuries
By Perry Nickelston, DC, FMS, SFMA
So you want to specialize in sports injuries? That decision alone is a giant first step in leading the kind of life you want inside and outside the office. Narrowing your focus is critical for business and personal success. Time, energy, education, money, marketing and networking are enhanced when you have a direction that resonates with your purpose. Or, perhaps you are at a clinical crossroads and considering specialization in sports injuries. Either way, this article is for you. How do you know if the sporting life is for you? What practical considerations must you evaluate to see if this is the right path? Being athletic and loving sports might not be enough to get you across the goal line of practice success. Let's take a look at some essential components of being a sport injury specialist and how they apply to your practice.
Long term clinical care of sporting injuries involves more than removing spinal subluxations. Restoring spinal mobility is, of course, foundational to athletic movement and performance however, soft tissue therapy and movement based corrective exercise are critical players, too. Becoming a true "game changer" in the world of sports is the epitome of the "above, down, inside out" approach to patient care. People who participate in sports from the professional to weekend warrior have a different mindset when it comes to following a therapy program; they want to get better and will do whatever it takes to do what they love better.
Patient Demographics
Specializing in sports injures takes you to a unique subculture of competition. Competition is innate. It's deeply ingrained in the human psyche. From the times of the Roman Gladiator, organized Olympic Games and the current Crossfit phenomena, people compete against themselves for a personal best or against another individual. It inspires us to push ourselves, to do more, to be more, striving for self improvement. These are powerful motivators in patient care and retention. People invest in things they value. The sense of community and support in sports is a powerful catalyst for change. When someone is hurting and you make them feel better, they will tell others. If someone wants to improve their performance and you help them do that, they will tell others. From the standpoint of practice management and marketing, specializing in sports injuries is at the top of the list.
Marketing Basics
Walk the talk! Be your sport. Participate in and do the sports you love. There is this wonderful strategy of marketing known as people skills. Connecting with and relating to people is the foundational key to long term success in business. Find out where the athletes of your sport congregate. Where do they go to do their sport? Where do they go to compete? What are their goals? What makes them tick? Become an "injury specific" marketer. What does that mean? Market to injuries specific in your chosen sport. For example, runner's get knee pain and plantar fascitiis, tennis players get elbow and shoulder pain, soccer players get knee, hip and ankle issues. Narrow your bullseye marketing target. The ripple effect is much larger when you hit the target. Focus on social media outlets to find your market. Facebook, Twitter and Meetup are essential in developing your plan of action. Even if you are not on social media, I can promise you that your target market is and if they don't see you, you lose.
Learn Movement Assessment
Movement never lies! It tells the unique story of each individual human beings history, compensations and adaptations. No two people move the same. So how can you treat people the same for an injury? You can't. Dysfunctional movement patterns may manifest in poor performance, increased injury, decreased durability and pain. Bodily injury causes movement adaptation to avoid pain. The body craves safety and stability above all else and will use any means necessary to obtain it. Assessing how an athlete moves can be a powerful predictor of injury. Previous injury and movement asymmetry (you function better on one side than the other) play a critical factor in whether an athlete will become injured again. Just because pain goes away, does not mean functional movement patterns have been restored. Physical therapist Gray Cook uses the Functional Movement Screen (FMS) scoring system to evaluate movement efficiency using seven fundamental patterns. The measured level of score can be used as a predictor of future injury. The FMS is used by professional athletic teams and health and fitness professionals as a measurable system of movement ability. Here are examples of some movements and what they might tell you:
Overhead squat: A full body evaluation of stability and mobility of the body. Can the client control movement and gravity load? Do the joints allow enough movement to hinge at the ankles, knees, hips, thoracic spine and shoulders. A quick and easy assessment of full body movement. The worse the squat, the worse the mobility and stability. It's a benchmark of where to begin in therapy.
Single Leg Stance: Demonstrates unilateral stability and functioning of the LSS (Lateral Subsystem). Increasing demands of stabilization shows underlying compensations of the body. What do the feet do? Supinate or pronate? Does the hip drop? How is balance? Does the athlete hold their breath? Does the neck and shoulder compensate. Single leg stance is critical because that is how most athletes spend their time...on one leg...running!

DES MOINES, IOWA — Normally when a wrestler has twice achieved All-American status after his sophomore season it would be considered an outstanding achievement. Former Willingboro High standout and University of Nebraska 157-pounder James Green is aware he has accomplished something special, but he wanted more.
After getting pinned in the wrestle-backs late Friday night, Green bounced back Saturday morning to major James Fleming of Clarion by the score of 14-4 in the seventh-place match at the NCAA Division 1 Wrestling Championships at the Wells Fargo Arena. It was the second straight year Green finished in the seventh spot.
In other developments from the tournament, Columbia's Steve Santos had the highest finish of any New Jersey wrestler when he took a third at 149 pounds in an otherwise rough showing for wrestlers from the Garden State.
In terms of the team championship, two-time defending state champion Penn State held a 3.5 point lead over Oklahoma State heading into Saturday night's finals. Penn State was in a strong position to make it three in a row because it had five wrestlers in the finals, while Oklahoma State had just two.
"It was nice to come back and be All-American after what happened in my opening match," said Green of a controversial overtime loss on Thursday."But I was really hoping to do better coming here. Now I'll start working for next year and see if I can finish higher."
Green was certainly in fine form Saturday as he took it to Fleming from start to finish. Once again he relied in his trademark freight double takedown to control the bout.Green was also able to record backpoints to finish his season with a record of 25-6 after entering the tournament as the No. 4 seed.
Green was a state champion for Willingboro two years ago after finishing second at the NJSIAA states as a junior. Considering he has not yet used his redshirt season, there's no telling what he might accomplish before he is finished.
A Brick Memorial High School product, Santos beat Dylan Ness of Minnesota, 7-3, in the third-place match after knocking off Scott Sagaguchi of Oregon State, 4-2, earlier in the day. It was a marvelous tournament for Santos, whose only loss was to Oklahoma's States Jordan Oliver, a former Easton High wrestler who entered the tournament as the top seed.
Unlike previous showings,including two years ago when it had three nationals champions, the pickings were slim for wrestlers from New Jersey. Rutgers and Rider also once again failed to produce an All-American as none of the their wrestlers were able to advance past the third round of wrestle-backs.
