Padres outlast Cubs in 15-inning marathon
SAN DIEGO -- When Nick Hundley stepped to the plate in a tie game in the 15th inning, Padres manager Bud Black had a feeling the marathon was about to end.
Not that any of Black's premonitions were worth much anyway on Sunday.Full Game Coverage
SAN DIEGO -- When Nick Hundley stepped to the plate in a tie game in the 15th inning, Padres manager Bud Black had a feeling the marathon was about to end.
Not that any of Black's premonitions were worth much anyway on Sunday.Full Game Coverage
"I had that sense about six times that somebody was going to end it," Black kidded after the game.
Hundley finally did just that with an RBI single off Cubs reliever Hector Rondon, capping a bizarre and exhilarating 3-2 Padres win.
The five-hour, 13-minute affair marked the seventh-longest game, innings-wise, in Petco Park history. Twelve scoreless frames were followed by three of the wackiest and tensest frames of the year.
"It was some of the weirdest baseball I've seen," said Padres starter Andrew Cashner.
And that was an understatement.
With the bases loaded and the game scoreless in the top of the 13th, Cubs right fielder Nate Schierholtz hit what appeared to be an easy double-play ball to first. But Jesus Guzman's throw home hit a stumbling Schierholtz in the helmet, and the ball bounced away, allowing the first run to score.
"I just looked up, and it was right in front of my face, and I think I turned my head just a little bit," Schierholtz said. "It wouldn't have been fun if I took it right in the face."
The Cubs scored another in the frame on a sac fly and handed the ball over to their reliable closer, Kevin Gregg.
Only Gregg wasn't so reliable on Sunday. Friars shortstop Ronny Cedeno smashed an RBI triple to center field with two outs and came around to score two pitches later on a wild pitch. Cedeno hesitated before darting home, and it looked as though Cubs catcher Welington Castillo would have had him at the plate had his throw not sailed past a charging Gregg.
"He made a decision to go, and from my perspective it looked as though -- if there was a good throw and tag -- that he probably would have been out," Black said. "But I also know that ... isn't a play that's practiced much. It's more of an athletic play."
Cedeno slid in safely, and the soundboard operators at Petco Park queued up the 14th-inning stretch.
Shortly after the crowd had finished singing for the second time, the Padres had a golden opportunity, putting runners on second and third with one out. But left-handed pitcher Eric Stults -- batting because no position players remained on the bench -- and third baseman Chase Headley each struck out.
Headley argued with home-plate umpire Paul Schrieber after Headley was punched out, but without any remaining reserves, Black sprinted to usher Headley off the field. Fittingly -- given the strange events of the day -- it was Headley who made three very nice defensive plays a half-inning later to keep the game tied and set the stage for Hundley's third career walk-off hit.
"Any time you go long like that, it adds a little more pressure to win," Hundley said. "Losing games like this takes a little more out of you, and winning games like this gives you a little bit more momentum."
Lost in the shuffle was the dazzling performance of Cashner, who showed the Cubs just what they're missing out on. Cashner, after all, was selected by Chicago in the first round of the 2008 Draft, but was shipped to San Diego before the '12 season.
The fireballing right-hander certainly gave Chicago a good look at his talents. He pitched seven innings of two-hit ball, striking out seven. His fastball remained in the upper 90s throughout, and -- more importantly -- he was around the zone all afternoon, throwing 78 of his 108 pitches for strikes.
"Today has really been the first day that I had three pitches working throughout the entire game," Cashner said. "My sinker was really good today, and pitching my fastball to both sides of the plate allowed my slider and changeup to be so good."
The Padres' bullpen stayed in its brilliant form, tossing eight innings of two-run ball. Brad Boxberger was the only pitcher to stumble, but he settled down to limit the Cubs in the 13th and followed that by tossing a scoreless 14th.
Hundley, meanwhile, is now hitting .333 with four RBIs in the seven games since his wife gave birth to a daughter, Allison.
"I probably should have slept less when I wasn't a dad," he kidded.
Hundley acknowledged that the game likely wouldn't have lasted 15 innings had he been able to execute one of two failed bunt attempts in the 10th and 12th innings, respectively.
The Padres now head to Arizona on a later-than-expected flight, set to begin a six-game road trip.
"It'll be a great flight," Hundley said with an ear-to-ear grin. "It'll be a lot of fun."

Dem field vs. Corbett grows in Pa.
The already huge Democratic primary to face off against Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Corbett is about to get even more crowded.
Former state Auditor General Jack Wagner is collecting signatures and plans to join the race, according to the Philadelphia Daily News.
Story Continued Below
As a former statewide elected official, Wagner has a strong foundation for another statewide bid — and he's the only candidate who hails from western Pennsylvania, which includes the vote-rich Pittsburgh area.
( PHOTOS: Governors' offices up for grabs in 2014)
That said, his most recent attempts at political office haven't been successful: He lost a primary bid for mayor of Pittsburgh last year and lost the 2010 gubernatorial primary to Dan Onorato.
Wagner's entry brings the number of Democratic candidates to eight. Also running are: Rep. Allyson Schwartz; state Treasurer Rob McCord; businessman Tom Wolf; former state environmental protection Secretary Katie McGinty; John Hanger, another former state environmental protection secretary; Lebanon County Commissioner Jo Ellen Litz; and businessman Max Myers.
Allentown Mayor Ed Pawlowski is the only Democratic candidate to exit the race so far: Last month, he announced at a press conference that he would end his bid and endorse McCord.
( Also on POLITICO: Al Gore backs Katie McGinty in primary)
The Democratic primary will be held May 20.
Corbett is considered one of the most vulnerable Republican governors in the country this year, which helps explain the huge field vying to take him on. But a nasty, expensive primary could play into Corbett's hands, giving him a general election opponent who comes to the race bruised and broke.

Over the past several years, NYCC has established chiropractic internships at the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland. NYCC was the first college to offer chiropractic services in the VA Healthcare System – establishing an internship program at the VA hospital in Buffalo, New York. Additional relationships include Monroe Community Hospital – and affiliate of the University of Rochester Medical School – and the associated health centers of the State University of New York system located in Buffalo and Farmingdale.
In addition to these opportunities, NYCC operates four of its own health centers – in Depew, New York, near Buffalo; in Levittown, New York on Long Island; in Rochester, New York; and one that's literally in our own backyard on the site of our Seneca Falls, New York campus. Here students enjoy full-year opportunities to observe and learn, first-hand, how well-respected experts from diverse fields treat a wide variety of health concerns.
These centers also provide a valuable resource to their communities, blending chiropractic and related therapies into integrative care for health and wellness. Through this outreach, NYCC becomes a vital part of the community fabric and a local leader in healthcare services.


text: Seraphina was a very unique, original, and complex book. When the story begins, Seraphina's world is on the brink of war. For forty years, a treaty was all that prevented a war between the humans and the dragons. The fear, mistrust and lack of understanding between the two species had set their world on a path that could only lead to war. When the prince is murdered, tensions reach a fever pitch as all heads turn to the dragons. Soon the story's heroine, Seraphina Dombegh, a gifted musician in court, is drawn into the mix. As she investigates the murder, attenpts to stop a conspiracy that could destroy what little chance for peace was left, and tries to understand her feelings for the prince's nephew, she must also struggle to conceal her deepest secret. I really enjoyed reading Seraphina. The story was very suspenseful and entertaining, and Rachel Hartman's writing was skillful as well. I think this story is most suited for ages 12 and up.

Presidential Endowed Chair in Pharmacy Honors L.S. Skaggs
In their ongoing support of the University of Utah's internationally regarded College of Pharmacy, the L.S. Skaggs family and Skaggs Foundation for Research have established a presidential endowed chair to help recruit a top pharmacy researcher while honoring longtime benefactor L.S. Skaggs.
Mar 19, 2010 3:41 PMSALT LAKE CITY—In their ongoing support of the University of Utah's internationally regarded College of Pharmacy, the L.S. Skaggs family and Skaggs Foundation for Research have established a presidential endowed chair to help recruit a top pharmacy researcher while honoring longtime benefactor L.S. Skaggs.
The $1.5 million L.S. Skaggs Presidential Endowed Chair for Pharmacy will allow the College of Pharmacy to recruit a high-visibility researcher to help lead the college in its mission of developing new drugs to fight disease and illness, finding better ways to deliver drugs in the body, and evaluating the efficacy of medications given to patients in real-world clinical settings. The Skaggs chair holder, who pharmacy college interim dean Chris M. Ireland, Ph.D., expects to be appointed by year-end, also will hold the title of associate dean for research, a vital role given pharmacy's longstanding position as one of the nation's elite research institutions. Candidates for the chair are being currently being interviewed.
"This generous donation will allow us to use the Skaggs presidential chair as a recruiting tool to bring in a top scientist to help make our research infrastructure even stronger," Ireland said. "It's a testament to the wonderful philanthropy of the Skaggs family. Without their support, the College of Pharmacy would not have achieved the outstanding success that it has."
Since the mid-1970s, the U pharmacy college has ranked among the nation's top five universities in dollars received through peer-reviewed National of Institutes of Health grants. The college currently ranks No. 4. But to maintain that position, the college must continually enhance its research initiatives and mission, according to Ireland.
L.S. Skaggs pioneered the concept of locating food and drug stores in the same building, an idea that revolutionized the retail industry and helped him grow a small chain of independent drug stores into one of the country's largest food and drug retailers, American Stores Co. Skaggs' steadfast support of the College of Pharmacy was evident when in 1964 he placed the first gift for construction of the U of U College of Pharmacy building, named L.S. Skaggs Hall, in honor of his father, L.S. Skaggs Sr. When ground was broken last August on a major research building adjacent to Skaggs Hall, the Skaggs family and the Skaggs Research Foundation again played a pivotal role by donating $30 million to the $69 million project. The new research facility will be named the L.S. Skaggs Pharmacy Institute, in honor of the younger L.S. Skaggs.
The College of Pharmacy is recognized for more than its world-class research. The college trains the majority of Utah's registered pharmacists and has been consistently ranked in the top 20 pharmacy programs by U.S. News & World Report.

Northeastern Italy's Friuli-Venezia-Giulia (FVG) region produces very good Sauvignons, Pinot Grigios, and Pinot Biancos, as well as some delightful--and sometimes more serious--whites from native grapes like Ribolla, Malvasia, and Tocai.
This region is also a source of some excellent cooler-climate Cabernets and Merlots as well as a few idiosyncratic red wines worth seeking out. Until recently, Cabernets and Merlots from this part of the country were often excessively vegetal, but today quality-conscious producers are making outstanding, ripe wines.
Friuli-Venezia-Giulia also produces some of Italy's finest sweet white wines: Picolit and Verduzzo. Piccolit is a delicately sweet late-harvest wine reminiscent of acacia, honey, peach, and citrus fruits. Some air-dried examples can be much more concentrated, with date and fig flavors.
Italy, like France, offers a world of wine styles within a single country: dry Italian white wines ranging from lively and minerally to powerful and full-bodied; cheap and cheerful Italian red wines in both a cooler, northern style and a richer, warmer southern style; structured, powerful reds capable of long aging in bottle; sparkling wines; sweet wines and dessert wines.
Most of Italy enjoys a relatively warm climate, and the southern portion of the country can be particularly hot in the summer months. However, Italy's Apennine mountain chain, which traverses the country from north to south, provides an almost infinite number of soil types and exposures, as well as favored hillside sites in virtually every region, where vines can be cultivated at higher, cooler altitudes. Mountainous terrain has also resulted in the segregation of many small wine regions, enabling dozens of indigenous grape varieties to survive in near isolation. Here, Italy markedly differs from most of the wine world, which is becoming increasingly international in nature.
But Italian wine, as most North Americans know it, is a fairly recent phenomenon. Prior to the 1950s, only a tiny proportion of Italy's wines were even bottled by the farmer who grew the grapes. Most Italian wine was consumed by the local market. The Italian government's DOC system (Denominazione di Origine Controllata), created in the 1960s, imposed more explicit standards and thereby improved Italian wine quality while at the same clarifying the labeling of wines and thus making it far easier for Italian producers to ship their wines abroad. (Today DOCG -- Controllata e Garantita -- is theoretically the highest level in the quality pyramid of Italian wine, with this special status more recently granted to such historically important Italian wine areas as Barolo, Barbaresco, Brunello di Montalcino and others: areas that had previously enjoyed DOC status for at least five years.)
Of course, some of the most innovative Italian wine makers quickly began to look for ways to escape the restrictions of this system. They believed that DOC laws actually prevented them from making the best possible wines -- for example, by proscribing the use of certain grape varieties or by requiring them to age their wines in wood barrels longer than they believed was beneficial in some years. Those with a more independent bent essentially opted out of the system, instead producing wines that were simply classified as Vini da Tavola (table wines) but that in a number of cases surpassed the "official" best Italian wines in quality and price. (A new law passed in 1992 created the IGT category, or Indicazione Geografica Tipica, for the innovative Vini da Tavola for which DOCs were not yet created.) These trailblazers have revolutionized Italian wine over a period in which French wines have merely "evolutionized."

The Financial Aid Office processes awards under one of two general conditions. Awards that can immediately be applied to your account, "real" awards, and Anticipated Aid, meaning the awards are expected but the conditions have not yet been met to qualify for their passing to your bursar account as usable credits. Both the immediate or "real" and the Anticipated Aid will reduce the amount owed for your tuition and fees. The Anticipated Award will either become "real" when all eligibility requirements are met or may be removed from your account. Please check your account via OneStart where both types of awards can be viewed on-line in real-time. Through OneStart you will see your Aid activity as it happens. You also will be able to see details that explain reasons your aid may not have passed to your bursar account and what you can or should do about it.
OneStart also allows you to see if your aid has passed to your bursar account and has resulted in a credit on your bursar account. If aid has passed to your bursar account, your account will show each award as a credit under the Financial Aid heading, taking the place of the anticipated aid entries. If the aid is still anticipated, you will see this under the Anticipated Aid heading on your bursar account. If not passed, please check the Financial Aid OneStart channel for details. (Awards that have not passed will not be available to your bursar account and cannot be calculated as part of a refundable amount).
Aid can be disbursed to students by the Office of the Bursar no sooner than 10 calendar days prior to the first day of class. All current costs such as tuition and fees will be paid first. You will be refunded any financial aid money that remains after your bill is paid. If you do not receive your expected aid, you are still responsible for the outstanding fees due.
If you are eligible for financial aid but do not plan to complete the semester, you must withdraw from your semester classes. Otherwise your fees will be paid by your financial aid, your enrollment will be validated, and you will receive failing grades in all registered classes. Financial aid recipients who reduce their enrollment may be required to repay their financial aid. Contact a financial aid counselor before adjusting your class schedule.
If your credited financial aid exceeds the amount due on your account, the excess credit may qualify for refunding. Once your refundable credit is approved for refunding, you will see a refund entry on your OneStart Bursar account. The Office of the Bursar will begin processing refunds of excess financial aid on 1/3/2014. Refunds will be sent directly to your checking or savings account if you have set-up Direct Deposit or a check will be mailed to your address on file with the registrar. You should generally allow 3 to 4 business days from the refund date to allow the Direct Depositing transactions to occur, however for Direct Deposits you should check with your banking institution to confirm that the credit appears on your bank account and also what days are considered business days because of the holidays. If you are setup with Direct Deposit, the Bursar Office will notify you via your University e-mail address when a refund has been sent to your banking institution. For deliveries of checks by mail, reasonable time should be allowed for the US Postal delivery.
When you register, the University reserves specific class spaces for you and commits resources to provide the instruction you have selected. On your part, you assume the responsibility for paying the assessed fees or for notifying the University if you decide not to attend. The availability of courses is subject to change. A section may be cancelled due to low enrollment or departmental staffing considerations. The department canceling a class will notify registered students.

CHICAGO (AP) - A federal judge has potentially opened a new market in Chicago to gun dealers.
U.S. District Judge Edmond E. Chang said Monday that Chicago ordinances banning the sale of firearms within city limits are unconstitutional. The judge issued his ruling in a lawsuit brought by the Illinois Association of Firearms Retailers and three Chicago residents.
Chang noted Chicago's ban not only covers federally licensed dealers, but also gifts among family members, in the name of reducing gun violence.
Chang said a fundamental duty of government is to protect its citizens but it's also obligated to protect fundamental rights named in the Constitution, including the right to keep and bear arms for self-defense.
Chang said he would temporarily stay his ruling, meaning the ordinances stand while Chicago decides whether to appeal.

Most mobile welders machines are operated either electrically for arc welding, or as an inert gas welding machine. These are most commonly used for reparation and assembly work, but are applicable for a vast amount of tasks. Check out the used welding equipment for sale from the a vast and wide selection of second hand markets, auction houses and dealers. Here you can find the best quality selection of welding equipment and used welder machines together under one roof. Please check out prices, specs and used welders sales information along with product images below.
Welding is the standard process used to permanently join metal workpieces together. There are various systems available that all work around the same principle. At the welding spot, a workpiece is joined to metal edge using liquefied heat. Welding machines and mig welder included are used to facilitate the joining of metals by coalescence. This involves applying intense heat to melt a portion of the metals to be joined so that they intermix. Often another material is added to form a strong joint when cooled. A welder should know all the possible systems. The molten metals then flow into one another and solidify again. This creates a permanent bond between the two work pieces.
Welding methods include flux cored, gas metal arc, gas tungsten arc, submerged arc, shielded metal arc and electroslag welding. Various types of welding machines are readily available at very affordable prices from used industrial machinery auctions. Here are the major welding machine types:
Whether your business involves arc welding or spot welding machine, you will find that a wide selection of used welding machines are conveniently available cost effectively from used industrial machinery auctions and second hand market. While buying new welding set may at first seem like the obvious choice, in many circumstances it simply may not be practical.

Nas Performs at Governors Ball NYC
Nas took to the stage at New York City's Governors Ball music festival on Saturday (June 8). The venue, Randall's Island, was muddy and damp after rain and high winds shut down the fest the bight before, forcing Friday night headliners Pretty Lights and Kings of Leon to reschedule for the following day.
Festival goers sloshed around in rain boots Saturday. Nas ditched his usual Life Is Good suit & tie for a more laid back tracksuit flanked with some heavy neck bling. Check out photos from Nasir Jones' set in the gallery that folllows.

Salt Lake Tribune - Opinion
"This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in pursuance thereof; and all treaties made, or which shall be made, under the authority of the United States, shall be the supreme law of the land; and the judges in every state shall be bound thereby, anything in the constitution or laws of any state to the contrary notwithstanding."
— The Constitution of the United States, Article VI.
And that is that.
Or that would be that, in a state where more lawmakers were concerned with carrying out their own duties, not trying to aggrandize themselves by promoting flatly unconstitutional schemes on everything from gun laws to sage grouse.
The above snippet of the Constitution is called, perhaps immodestly, the Supremacy Clause. It means that, while states can and do pass a great many laws that have to do with internal business, no state has the power to lay its own decisions above those of the federal government.
Just about every time some state has tried to get around that, they lost. Sometimes in court. Sometimes at the point of a federal bayonet.
Yet again this year we have far too many members of the Utah Legislature seriously proposing and holding hearings on various bills that seek to exempt this state or its subdivisions from federal gun laws, federal land policy, federal endangered species laws, etc.
Our lawmakers can protest what they think are unfair or unwise federal laws all they want. They can call on their members of Congress to change those laws. They can file suit — in federal court — in hopes of getting those laws declared unconstitutional. Their rights to do all those things are in the Constitution, too.
But legislators are deceiving themselves — and, worse, misleading their constituents — every time they argue for a bill that would, for example, seek to place Utah's laws concerning the possession and use of firearms above that of any and all federal laws addressing the same issue. That bill, HB114, passed a Utah House committee Monday, hopefully on its way to oblivion or, failing that, to being summarily voided in the first federal courtroom it sees.
Just imagine how much better the political life of Utahns would be if our lawmakers spent their time and energy carrying out the duties they do have, duties such as providing for a properly funded system of public education. Or establishing ethical and campaign finance laws that would — along with a proper understanding of the separation of powers — make our Legislature a model rather than, too often, an object of ridicule.

text: Certainly an interesting idea, and a good read. Thanks. I hated the way they treated Cerberus, and TIM in ME3. In ME2 you always got the sense that he DID have humanity's interests at heart, he was just willing to go to extreme measures to protect those interests. You also had decent lower-level Cerberus operatives like Miranda and Jacob (ok Jacob was a jerk in ME3, but he was decent enough in ME2). All of a sudden in ME3 TIM had become Old Man Winters from the spooky abandoned theme park and the rest of Cerberus were equally as pantomime. I liked what they did with Cerberus in ME2, my XBox GT even references them, but by the end of ME3 I was absolutely sick of the sight of them. By the time the Omega DLC came about it already had one strike against it before I'd even begun once I learned it was yet more Cerberus skullduggery......! Mac Walters - screwed up the ending, and single-handedly screwed over what could have been a worthy antagonist. TIM deserved better, Cerberus deserved better.

I can't believe the greed of some people. They deserve what they get.
It's not if your doing it right it's whether your doing the right thing that is important.
"...an examination of the gas meter at the house found that there was a large volume of gas entering into the home six to nine hours prior to the explosion."
How did they know that? Was it a electric meter?

Probably from the last reading they came up with a mathmatical equation, but I could be talking out of the side of my neck.
Un #$%@# Believable. I can't believe the things people have in their minds. I wish the 2 Leonards died and the neighbors happened to hit up the casino.
Good point, how would they know unless the meter had just been read?
yes jd, this happened last month. Pretty quick things got pointing to man caused and pointing toward the occupants.
Yeah that's crazy. That's the fire I was thinking off.
Do the remote reading gas meters that are interconnected with the electric meter make real time (or at least maybe hourly) measurements possible? I have this set-up on my house. There is a wire that runs from the gas meter to the electric meter.
It used to be the person from the utility would just have to drive by the house and the information would download into a unit in the truck. Now it seems they've installed a lot of 2 way radio repeaters mounted on their own poles (wooden power poles) all over the area that I understand allows these readings to be taken without anyone driving around.
Use the biggest hammer you like, pounding a square peg into a round hole does not equal a proper fit.
Meters are electronic now...no need for meter readers anymore. They can monitor you right from the utility company.

"We're treating the remaining games in the season like playoff games," Cyclones head coach Codey Mann said. "You don't want to tell the boys that a game is must-win, but I think they're starting to understand how important it is. We have to get back on track and get some confidence into us. We understand that every conference game is important for us, and we need a win in conference pretty badly. The playoffs aren't setting up well for us."
The Cyclones will get their chance for that elusive league win Friday when they travel to Little Rock Catholic to face a struggling Rockets team. The Lady Cyclones will also get their chance against Mount Saint Mary Academy.
Where the Cyclones have not yet found their first conference victory — the Rockets have found only one. Mann warned against taking the Rockets too lightly, however.
"One thing about Little Rock Catholic is that they're a team that gets better as the year goes on," he said. "Last year, with all the successes we have, we still had an overtime game with them and beat them once in the last 30 seconds of the game. When we play them, it's usually a good game. We match up with them pretty well, and they match up with us pretty well. It's likely to be a grind-it-out sort of game."
Lady Cyclones head coach Steve Wiedower was equally optimistic.
"If we play well, we have a chance to win," Wiedower said. "The other teams in the conference are some of the top teams in the state. This team is not one of those, though. They've struggled in conference just like we have. It gives us a chance to go in there and have some success."
And the Lady Cyclones are a team that could use a little success. Often when a team has a rough season, it's hard to bounce back. It's hard for the players to think of themselves as a team that can win close games.
"That's something we're always dealing with," Wiedower said. "Confidence is a big thing. We're working on trying to get them to buy into the things that they need to buy into as far as our program goes. It's just taking time, and we're having to remind them to keep their heads up.
"My first season here, we only won two conference games. The next year we bounced back really well, and I think one of the big things about that is getting a couple of big wins so they can get that confidence they need to get over the hump when you are trying to bounce back as a team."
A few things have changed about Little Rock Catholic since the last time the Cyclones faced them. According to Mann they aren't as big as they normally are.
"Typically they always have one stud in the middle who is just this big football boy who is really good and really strong," Mann said. "This year they have good kids, but they don't have that one, strong kid. They're more of a perimeter team this year. They're more guard-oriented. They're more about pass and cut and getting layups and open jumpers."
The Cyclones have prepared by working on the area they've struggled in all season: cold shooting. Russellville has played close to most of the teams it has lost to, but has struggled with long dry spells off missed baskets.
"We've been getting a lot more shots up in practice," Mann said. "We're doing shooting drills and working on the fundamentals of our defense and our offense. Motion offense can be complex for players this young sometimes. If one kid is out there just standing around, it can mess the whole thing up."
For Wiedower, the answer is more of the same.
"Basically, we just have to keep working on our fundamentals," he said. "Good defense, good ball-handling."
And with conference season near the midway point those are lessons to be learned quickly — before the Lady Cyclones run out of time and secure themselves poor seeding in the state tournament. But it is in no way over for RHS. There is plenty of basketball to played and plenty of room for both young teams to change and to grow.
"We'll get better as the year goes on," Mann said. "We're in a funk. We've just go to find some way to get over that hump."

Glenn Beck's Scary Blueprint for World Domination in 2010, Unveiled: "The Plan"
Glenn Beck's talking up some scary plan for 2010 lately. It's scary because Glenn Beck is talking. And today, Glenn Beck unveiled his 100-year plot to fundamentally change America—and democracy—as we know it. Glenn Beck is fucking insane.
So: we got teased yesterday and this morning with two great pieces on Glenn Beck talking in his strange, voodoo-esque language on whatever way he plans to molest and exploit the minds of whoever will lend him an open ear to aim his ideological piss into. The first was the aforementioned Politico note, which quoted Beck teasing his big ideas on his show. But this was fun! Remember that scary 9/12 Project that was presumed to have gone away because only crazy people listened to crazy people and hey, there can't be that many crazy people who are that organized. We call those cults, and there are lots of them, sure. But they don't represent any kind of frightening majority. Because crazy people need crazy leaders with power and a platform and there aren't really any of those out there as completely insane as the 9/12ers are, right?
Christine Drawdy, a Florida event promoter involved in the tea party and 9/12 movements who is listed as the travel coordinator for the 2010 march, said the permit for the march is in the name of The 9.12 Project's administrator, Yvonne Donnelly. Though Drawdy stressed that Beck "is not the leader of" the 912 movement, she added "all he has to do is say something, and they'll jump."
And by 'jump,' she means, kill people.
Brian Stetler at the New York Times also talked to Beck before today. Stetler's a sizable dude, not someone I imagine can be easily intimidated, nice as he is. Really, he could probably bounce a guy Glenn Beck's size easily.
That said, I imagine he'll be sleeping in the fetal position tonight:
"We'll be looking for ways to get people involved in politics," [Beck] said. "I hear people saying, 'O.K., now what?' They're calling their representative, but it's time to get more proactive."
Right. So. What was Beck's big plan? He unveiled it today, starting with his website, which is the image you see at the top of this post. One more thing before we get there, though. This video, taken at a Borders yesterday, of Beck teasing out The Plan.
"We're gonna be asking of you some big things." Funny, I've been told the same thing by my bosses, but the first thought that went through my head never involved any kind of civil war and/or revolution.
But hey, Beck: he's just passionate! No way could this entire rollout involve the guy cashing in.
No way could all of this buzz, this entire thing, all of this talk about "community organizing"—taking The Dirty Word of President Barack Obama's past and platform, and putting it to their own new, awesome, terrible uses—no way could Beck be leading his flock into spending some cash.
Funny, then, that they found out that The Plan was for them to spend more money on Glenn Beck, The Brand. Observe his two key points from the manifesto written on his website:
- I have begun meeting with some of the best minds in the country that believe in limited government, maximum freedom and the values of our Founders. I am developing a 100 year plan. I know that the bipartisan corruption in Washington that has brought us to this brink and it will not be defeated easily. It will require unconventional thinking and a radical plan to restore our nation to the maximum freedoms we were supposed to have been protecting, using only the battlefield of ideas.
- All of the above will culminate in The Plan, a book that will provide specific policies, principles and, most importantly, action steps that each of us can take to play a role in this Refounding.
Kinda sounds like a cross between Avon and the Left Behind series, right? Except with scarier salespeople who have drier hands.
Yeah, Glenn Beck's got a plan: for the next 100 years, he's gonna keep writing books and making TV shows, and his fans are going to keep buying into both of them. It's kind of genius. His entire multimedia empire is predicated on one, long, 100-year plot arc: that the main character will make viewers'/listeners'/readers' lives better so long as they're with him every step of the way. The man will make references to revolution, to change, to bringing everything back to a fundamental state. The beautiful irony he has to see and embrace—in order for this to have worked as long as it has—is that the only real movement he'll be making is into better cars and larger houses. The kinds that are far away from the rabid zombies who salivate at every vague allusion to blood and violence Mama Bird spits out like discarded pieces of chewing gum for them to suck every last grain of sweet flavor out of. The kind, if provoked, and unleashed, are as much as a threat to anybody as they are to him. A "random act of violence" is never really that random, is it? Especially when the word "radical" gets thrown around over, and over, and over.
More than anything, this guy is a threat to the proliferation of rational thought. Beck knows that there're people in the world who listen to this kind of nonsense without processing it any way but through their emotions, because they're tired, hungry, scared, or angry, and maybe, sometimes, rightfully so. Then again, so are most of us! But when you have an asshole like Beck running the con, one thing leads to another, and shit like this happens. Believe me, nothing would bring me more joy than to watch Glenn Beck get the Downfall-meme treatment after his empire of exploitative bullshit comes crumbling down under the weight of the inevitable rise of the truth: that this man is a crook, a fraud, a shyster, and a very skilled, sophisticated con artist. But who wants it to get that far?
Glenn Beck does have one up on Hitler in terms of likability: a decent Kermit impersonation. I'm pretty sure nobody with such an affection for Muppets can possibly be capable of anything too terrible.
Then again, evil, as we're all aware, is a scary, subversive force, and comes in all forms, at all times, with little to no discretion. Beware.

BERLIN – With many residents putting up fresh Christmas trees or pulling out artificial ones as the holiday season continues to peak, the Worcester County Fire Marshal's Office this week issued some fire safety tips along with some common sense ideas about decorating.
According to the county fire marshal's office, fires during the holiday season claim over 400 lives, injure over 1,600 more and cause nearly $1 billion in damage across the country each year. Most of the deaths, injuries and damages can be avoided by following a few simple life-saving steps to ensure a safe and happy holiday.
Many of the accidents and fires during the holiday season are caused by Christmas tree hazards and most are related to the use of fresh trees in homes. A video segment accompanying the release from the county fire marshal's office shows a fresh tree igniting in seconds and completely filling a room with flames and smoke in a matter of minutes, but a potentially tragic incident can be avoided by following a few common sense safety tips when keeping a fresh tree in the home.
For example, the needles on a fresh tree should be green and difficult to pull away from the branches. The trunk should be sticky to the touch and the needles should not break off easily if the tree had been cut recently. A common test for the freshness of a tree is to bounce the trunk on the ground. If many needles fall off, the tree has been cut too long, has probable dried out and is a fire hazard.
According to the fire marshal's office, a fresh tree should not be placed close to a heat source including a fireplace or a heat vent. The heat from the source will dry out the tree, increasing its chance to create a fire hazard. The fire marshal's office suggests not putting up a fresh tree too early or leaving it up too long, typically no longer than about two weeks.
While Christmas trees are often the source of holiday season fires, the decorations put on them, especially the lights, can contribute to a potential fire hazard. According to the fire marshal's office, lights should be maintained and inspected each year for frayed wires, bare spots, gaps in the insulation, broken or cracked sockets and excessive kinking before being used. In addition, only strings of lights listed by an approved testing laboratory should be used.
Another important safety tip urged by the fire marshal's office it not to overload electrical sockets. The fire marshal's office suggests connecting no more than three strings of lights together unless the directions indicate doing so is safe. In addition, another tip is to connect strings of lights to an extension cord before plugging the cord into an electrical outlet.
The fire marshal's office suggests using only approved non-flammable or flame retardant decorations and to keep them away from heat sources. Another tip is to never put wrapping paper in a fireplace, which can result in a very large fire, throwing off dangerous sparks and embers that may result in a chimney fire.
In general, the fire marshal's office is urging residents to avoid using lit candles this holiday season, but offers some safety tips if they are part of the holiday decorating plans. For example, if candles are used, make sure they are in stable holders and place them where they cannot easily be knocked over. Of course, it should go without saying, never leave the house with candles burning and never put lit candles on a Christmas tree.
Finally, as in every season, be sure to have working smoke alarms on every level of the home, test them monthly and keep them clean and equipped with fresh batteries at all times. The fire marshal's office is also reminding citizens to develop and practice a home escape plan and to know who and when to call for help should a fire or other accident occur.

The Sheepdogs know when to trust their instincts.
So when the shaggy Saskatoon rockers met Black Keys drummer Patrick Carney at a gig in New York last summer, they knew right away he was the man to produce their new album.
"We met Pat backstage and we were just chatting with him," recalls frontman Ewan Currie. "And he was genuinely interested in what we were going to do for our next album. And because we sort of sensed this interest from him, we just said, 'Why don't you produce this?'
"I hate this phrase, but to be honest, it was a no-brainer. Obviously we love the kind of rock music he makes and the kind of music that he's into. But he's also a guy who's also been at every stage of a successful rock career. They've been the struggling indie band, and they've been the band that's had a long steady climb before the crazy ascent into whatever you want to call them now — the kings of the rock 'n' roll world, I guess. He's seen a lot from every level of the music industry. He's an insightful guy."
And on the group's self-tited fourth album — their first to score a major-label American release, thanks to their victory in last year's Rolling Stone Choose the Cover contest — Carney helped them learn a few new tricks. Recorded in Nashville over two hectic weeks in January, the disc expands their rootsy Southern rock 'n' boogie with everything from fuzzy neo-blues to spacey 5/8 jams and layered keyboards.
Before heading home to Saskatoon for a well-earned break, Currie talked about Carney, the endless road and where he keeps the three Junos the band won this spring.
You've had albums out before, but this must feel different.
Absolutely. This is our first major-label album, and there's a lot more work that goes into getting everything ready. I mean, we were done recording in January and we're just getting it out now. But everybody feels pretty good and we feel like we've been navigating everything fairly well. No doubt there's a little bit more tension and pressure, but we don't see it as a bad thing. We kind of use it as motivation. It's made us a little stronger — forced us to keep alert and keep working. That's how we approach it, anyway.
What did Patrick Carney bring to the table as a producer?
Focus — just knowing when to hone in on this or trim that away. Little directional things like that — cutting the fat out and knowing what elements to add. I think that's what every producer needs to do; push the band toward their strengths and help direct the musical sound.
You recorded this really quickly. Was that a better way to work?
I don't know if it was better way; it was just a different way. When I read about the history of the bands that I like, they made albums under all these different circumstances. Some people labour for years. Then there's something like Led Zeppelin II — they basically made that album in different studios all over the U.S. while they were touring, and eventually they put together one of the greatest albums of all time. There's different ways to go about making different records. This was the right way for us to make this record. It represents where we're at in our career.
Stylistically and musically, this definitely takes a few steps forward. What are you proudest of?
In terms of stretching, I really like that we had three or four rock songs, but also this song Javelina that's in 5/8 time. And the song In My Mind has the sitar on it. Well, it's not actually a sitar; it's some sort of tenor ukulele that's strung up in a weird way, but I figured out a way to become a fake George Harrison. And there's a track called Ewan's Blues that's got a sort of different vibe than anything we've ever done before.
Speaking of touring the U.S., you're heading back out again soon. Isn't the endless road becoming a grind?
Oh, definitely. It's very tough. But the way we look at it, this is such a great opportunity we've been given. And we want to justify all that attention and seize this opportunity and strike while the iron is hot, so to speak. We don't want to let this chance fall through the cracks. We've been poor musicians who had nothing going on for such a long time. I think we're terrified of going back there. We just want to do all we can to keep things going. And to be in enough demand to tour nonstop is a pretty great thing.
Where are your Juno Awards?
Ha! Good question. I think they're at our drummer Sam's house. Well, his parents' house actually; that's The Sheepdogs' headquarters. It's where we rehearse. When we go back to Saskatoon soon, I'm going to finally see those things. Then they're going to go on display at my mom's house.

Not even tropical storm force winds could keep a couple of New York-based comedians down.
"Late Night" host Jimmy Fallon opened his show on the 50th Street in New York City. Speaking through a rain-splattered camera, Fallon introduced his guests on his walk to the studio at 30 Rockefeller Center.
"There's no audience tonight so you are the audience. Imagine laughter, imagine fun, imagine excitement," Fallon asked in the 30 Rock elevator.
"Please keep it down," the "Late Night" host joked to laughs from the only audience members -- his crew and house band, The Roots.
"The show must go own," The Roots' Questlove tweeted later.
David Letterman went by a similar philosophy, jumping on stage for a chat with his band leader, Paul Shaffer.
"We're in the middle of Hurricane Sandy and we have no studio audience but we do have quite a show for you tonight," Letterman began his show. "Thank you for joining us in the Ed Sullivan Shelter."
The "Late Show" ran quickly through the rest of his opening monologue from his desk. "I think I hear people banging from the door of the theater demanding to come in," he joked.

Discussion in 'Star Trek Movies I-X' started by Amasov, May 25, 2013.
@Asamov: Love the TVH bridge set too! Wish they could have used it again.
That is actually very nice.
Now I would like to see the refit continued--and those nacelles do rock.
Now on the subject of aft torpedoes, I don't like the aft torpedo in the same neck. The ABBE saucer should be placed on the 1701-A redeux.
There, the wide impulse separation allows for aft torpedoes to go on the saucer bwetween the widely spaced impulse exhausts
This keeps the side view fluid.
By the way, when I said "by me", I meant the alterations. The basic Enterprise is from Ex Astris Scientia, of course.
I used to read every bit of fandom I could get my hands on and I was completely surprised at the reveal. I had assumed that either Excelsior would be renamed Enterprise or that a second Excelsior class ship would be revealed as the new Enterprise (which is what they really should have done, IMHO) but I had no idea when this would happen. I was surprised they used the BoP for the whole film and saved the new ship for the very last minute. The Thanksgiving night 1986 packed theatre went wild at the reveal, though.
I have to agree that I wish the new ship was not a twin of the original. The original was practically a character, one that had sentimental value to its crew and the audience. I realize all starships looked alike on TOS but this was "our" Enterprise. To have it so quickly cloned implies they just tumble out of a large vending machine. I would even have accepted a new name on a new ship.
It was a surprise to me. Back in 1986 there was no precedent for another ship called the Enterprise. I assumed they would get the Excelsior or maybe another "new" ship.
As much as I like the refit design of the Enterprise it was very strange to see them magic one up from nowhere. (It's the Yorktown renamed, right?)
That's one idea. Other names have been bandied about here and there, but generally they all involve it being a ship that was renamed Enterprise.
I would have liked to have seen the Ent-A be an excelsior class ship. It would have been nice to explore the excelsior class on screen more, such as engineering and other areas.
I agree. The Excelsior was supposed to be a state-of-the-art design. The Constitution-class design was being phased out of Starfleet by 2286. Why offer Kirk command of an obsolete ship?
It is mentioned that the 1701-A could not be the Yorktown because it was mentioned earlier in the film (solar sails etc..). It still could be the Yorktown as we have no idea how much time had passed since the the crew returning, the Trial and later heading to space dock to the 1701-A. A month could have passed between them getting back and the trial or between the trial and space dock, we don't know. So there could have been time for the Yorktown to get re-branded.
The Crucible novels discuss the immediate aftermath of the Cetacean Probe incident. One week passes between the trial and the launching of Enterprise-A. What's not clear is how much time passes between the rescue of the HMS Bounty crew and the trail.
An idea I've had is that it was a conscious effort to reward Kirk with a ship that was identical to the original Enterprise as well as it being partially a public relations move to have Kirk go about the Galaxy in his most famous ride.
That makes sense. The public would certainly appreciate seeing the crew that saved their planet exploring the galaxy in the same ship that they made famous.
Or it was a way to give him a ship without giving him something too high profile like a top-of-the-line vessel, after the stunt he pulled in III.
This works, too.
Yeah, I've heard some fans propose something similar to this as well and it could be one of several reasons why Kirk was given another Constitution-class vessel.
Kirk showed them, didn't he, though ?
How did he do that?
What evidence is there that the Constitution-Class was being phased out at the time of TVH? Yes, the Excelsior was state of the art, but it was also an experimental prototype that was just getting ready for "trial runs" three months prior in TSFS, when it was sabotaged by Scotty. It would likely be years before the Excelsior class was put into full production and the Connies phased out of active service. So, I don't see it odd at all that new ships of that class were still being produced at this time.
Admiral Marrow's comments gave me that impression. Why decommission Enterprise if Constitution-class vessels are to continue being used? She was badly damaged but salvageable. Why not do another refit as Scotty suggested? Also consider that no other Constitution-class vessels are seen after the Enterprise-A is retired from service in spite of there being several Miranda-class ships that remain active well into the twenty fourth century. The only on-camera explanation that makes sense is that the remaining ships were retired. It may not have happened at the exact time I'm suggesting, but it's likely production of new ships stopped in the late twenty third century.
Separate names with a comma.

Honesty is my greatest virtue. Veda Scott simply cannot tell a lie. But my unfailing integrity means I have no choice but to be a champion for justice. If I see unfairness, I have to speak up. It's true, this compulsion for truth can be a bit of a burden, but I choose to see it as a gift. My own superpower. It's why I went to law school in the first place. Maybe someday I'll step in and change your life.*
But today I stand before you myself a victim.
I am a victim of Nigel McGuiness and Ring of Honor. I have been oppressed and, quite frankly, abused by these entities. And I am not alone. Look at Steve Corino, who continues to fight for his completely legitimate right to employment despite ROH's unfair and ILLEGAL attempts at termination. Where is our human resources department? Or have they been bullied by Nigel McGuiness too?
While I was forced to take a month off from Ring of Honor to recover from my match with MsChif, I was apparently (and unjustly) dismissed from my position backstage interviewer. ROH replaced me with Larry Mercer, a fact I only discovered well after the deed was done. Some people - not I, necessarily - might even say Nigel placed me an an unsafe working environment...allowing me to be injured so he could wrench the microphone from my hand and keep me from questioning his leadership. Like Steve Corino, I have to ask: what did I do wrong? As a journalist and champion of truth, it's my responsibility to expose injustice.
Most obviously, the abuses suffered by Barrister RD Evans stand as evidence of everything that's wrong with Dictator McGuiness and Ring of [alleged] Honor. When I look at RD Evans, I see not just a brilliant in ring technician...but an articulate, compassionate, intelligent total package of an athlete who could potentially be the face of Ring of Honor. Just picture Veda Scott and RD Evans visiting children in the hospital, their faces alight and their cells regenerating in the presence of their favorite ROH stars. But instead, Ring of Honor has established a consistent pattern of injury and abuse - and neglect. RD Evans might never recover full use and enjoyment of his pointer and middle fingers after the attack by Outlaw Inc. in New York City. We've already written off the pinky. And it's all because ROH allowed it to happen. RD Evans deserves justice (and whatever financial compensation might be incidental to that), and I promise he'll get it.
It's incredibly poetic that Death Before Dishonor takes place in the birthplace of revolution: Philadelphia, PA. There's more than one sort of American hero, after all - and we stand strong in the face of tyranny. RD Evans and I WILL be in Philadelphia on Friday. I've been working my blessedly unbroken fingers to the bone trying to keep up with the workload in the Barrister's office (and the managerial demands of an elite tag team like Marshall Law) while he rehabilitates. His bravery in the face of crippling pain has inspired me. And it's also inspired a plan to make a very pointed impact on Death Before Dishonor weekend.

Brisbane Marketing's ambitious plans for economic growth
Brisbane is riding a wave of transformation as it embraces the globalised digital economy and aspires to a legitimate place in an elite group of forward-focussed new world cities.
As a city, we are blessed with a cluster of creative, lateral-thinking leaders and entrepreneurs open to fresh ideas and new methods.
We are superbly located near the engine room of the Asian Century, boasting a cluster of world class research centres and growing status as an international resources hub.
This leaves us well credentialed for a new era of economic renaissance.
Over the past 12 months, Brisbane Marketing has been re-engineered to help Lord Mayor Graham Quirk and his administration drive an ambitious coming-of-age agenda, the 2012 to 2031 Brisbane Economic Development Plan.
Our brief is to drive economic growth and development by championing new world thinking that capitalises on our existing attributes and helps the market create fresh capacity in areas of high potential.
To this end we are now known as Brisbane's Economic Development Board with a primary focus on doubling the size of the city's economy over 20 years and increasing jobs and wages by 50%.
Ultimately this is about improving business opportunities and the standard of living of all residents.
At the core of this is Brisbane's ability to aggressively grow our global outlook by encouraging our business community to expand their markets well beyond Greater Brisbane.
This means attracting foreign investment in strategic developments, ensuring our business practices are globally competitive and leading edge, and training, attracting and retaining some of the world's leading talents.
While population growth, infrastructure, government services, education, the resources sector and professional services have delivered strong growth, we need to maintain a competitive focus on global trends to ensure Brisbane achieves its aggressive growth targets.
Crucially, the 2014 G20 Summit will place Brisbane on the world stage. Brisbane Marketing has already started working with the Federal Government to ensure Brisbane leverages this important milestone, positioning Brisbane and our industry leaders to an international audience.
Driving tourism, conventions, major events and inner city activity remains vital to Brisbane Marketing's role. But we are equally focussed on attracting business investment and foreign students, capitalising on the global digital economy and promoting corporate innovation.
Our brief includes driving Brisbane's digital strategy and a strong commercial focus that will align us more closely with the Brisbane business community.
We partner with government and business to leverage Brisbane's assets to maximum effect. We link potential investors with potential partners, drive a whole-of-city approach to international education and actively target international students, investment, conventions and major events to the city.
Similarly, we work in partnership with a broad range of tourism operators to market the incredibly diverse offerings of Brisbane and surrounds, highlighting our unique experiences. We also coordinate and stage events in the CBD to ensure it remains a vibrant and attractive destination for visitors and locals.
In short, by partnering with us, businesses can harness the collective strength of our local industry to access new markets and new opportunities.
For potential investors, we make it easy for people to do business with Brisbane, providing quality advice on how to enter the market and partner with local firms.
Brisbane Marketing is in a unique position to combine the strength, resources and influence of the Brisbane City Council with the flexibility, versatility and entrepreneurial spirit of a corporate-style economic board.
In the old world, cities tended to be clunky urban "analogue" clusters that grew in an ad-hoc way through a human need for socialisation and a business need for centralised commerce and economic scale.
New world cities are globally-focussed, digitally-networked and planned around lifestyle and environmental needs. They boast cutting-edge leisure, culture and education experiences that extend the boundaries of human experiences.
Brisbane brings its own style to this new breed of cities. It is casual but caring, progressive but green and successful but unpretentious.
In the years ahead the international community will come to see us as an energised and self-assured city powered by a world class lifestyle and a desire by smart thinkers to cluster where the action is.
It is Brisbane Marketing's goal to ensure our business partners are captivated by the city's progressive state of mind.
John Aitken is CEO of Brisbane Marketing.
