'Bucks on the Pond' makes season debut at Coors
Rockies fans sporting purple bunny ears featured in latest episode
By Mark Newman / MLB.com
On June 30, 1996, Eric Young stole six bases and the Rockies beat the Dodgers, 16-15. Quinton McCracken's walk-off double won it in the bottom of the ninth.
Deanna and Don Walters of Longmont, Colo., remember that sunny summer Sunday at Coors Field vividly. Not just because of the extraordinary events they saw on the field, but also because of their daughter, Kelsey, who was a baby then.
"We have been going to ballgames with our three daughters since each was a baby," Deanna said. "I remember that same game when Kelsey looked at the purple row of seats in Coors Field -- the seats that are a mile high. She was amazed at how high they were until she followed them around to near the row we were in that day. It was funny to watch from a child's eye."
For this family of true Rockies fans, games at Coors Field always have seemed to hold an important meaning of some kind. Deanna and Don even spent their 30th wedding anniversary there, and she recalls that "The whole section even sang to us." Now there is another key addition to their (digital) scrapbook, and it happened on another big Sunday.
Deanna stars with two of their daughters, Kelsey Walters and Taryn Servold, in the newest episode of the hit MLB.com game show "Bucks on the Pond" powered by Ford. You can watch for yourself and see if this trivia trio -- wearing purple bunny ears because it was taped on Easter -- added to the $21,510 racked up by fans at 25 of the 30 Major League ballparks.
"Bucks" is hosted by Jeremy Brisiel, and you might be a part of this season when you least expect it. Fans at the ballpark interact with MLB.com's studio through the magic of technology in conjunction with game action inside, and shows are released each Tuesday and Friday. Winning amounts are now matched by Ford with a check sent to the Wounded Warrior Project.
Contestants are asked a trivia question -- general knowledge and baseball -- on each pitch during a half-inning of baseball. Get the question correct and win money. Get the question wrong and it's a strike. Three strikes and you're out.
The questions' difficulty and value increase with the number of outs in the on-field action: $5 easy questions to start, $10 medium-difficulty questions after one out, $20 hard questions after two outs. If the contestant lasts longer than the team's at-bat, they win the bucks in their bank.
Cross the $100 mark during the show, and it's time for "Say the Word" powered by Ford SYNC. You can wager any part of your bank on that next question, which is asked each episode by 2014 Hall of Fame inductee Frank Thomas. Answer correctly and you win, answer incorrectly and you lose that amount ... and it's another strike.
"We were checking out The Rooftop at Coors Field prior to the start of the game," Deanna said. "Our family has always loved baseball, and all three girls have played softball, so this seemed like a great way to spend Easter as a family. Plus, hot dogs at the ballpark seemed easier than a big meal.
"The purple bunny ears are what got us noticed, no doubt, and it seemed like a really fun thing to do to compete in 'Bucks on the Pond' with my daughters. We absolutely loved being on the show. We had a great time doing something fun and different."
Topics covered in this episode include King Kong, Rockies all-time offensive leaders, string instruments, game shows, snowmen, film festivals, Rockies relievers, movie scores, TV actors, calendar, state flags, pitching terms, Rockies managers, authors, Frank Sinatra, movie actors and astrology.
The Walters said they try to get to about two Rockies games a month. On Easter Sunday, the trivia trio was at the game along with Hali Walters (sister to Kelsey and Taryn), Don and Taryn's husband.
Deanna, meanwhile, declares herself "a softball mom first." In this episode, J.B. notes that Deanna seemed to be the "cleanup" hitter in their group, and she wryly chalked it up to "maturity."
"There were several of the questions that my 'maturity' [we don't like to mention age] helped, as the girls are too young to remember things," Deanna said in her email to MLB.com. "The questions definitely taxed our brains in many categories, which was extra fun."
In addition to the Rockies, teams visited by the "Bucks" crew include the Angels, Astros, Athletics, Brewers, Cardinals, Cubs, D-backs, Dodgers, Giants, Indians, Mariners, Marlins, Mets, Orioles, Padres, Phillies, Pirates, Red Sox, Reds, Royals, Tigers, Twins, White Sox and Yankees. Bookmark MLB.com/bucks and be on the lookout for the "Bucks" crew at your ballpark.

The one thing that was most clear during Lady Antebellum's Live on Letterman webcast last night (Nov. 14), was that the three principle bandmates (Hillary Scott, Charles Kelley, Dave Haywood) were thrilled to be back on stage. As Kelley noted during the performance (watch the full concert now on demand), this was the group's first full show in nearly six months. "Can you tell we're excited?" he asked.

A chief reason for that delay in live performances came thanks to Scott and her husband, Lady Antebellum drummer Chris Tyrrell, who became first-time parents this past July. But tonight, it was Scott who probably smiled the hardest and beamed the strongest during the ten-song showcase. "This is so fun!" she giggled at one point.
The latest installment in CBS's Live on Letterman franchise, the webcast was shot live from the stage of New York's Ed Sullivan Theater (home to The Late Show with David Letterman), an intimate setting for a GRAMMY-winning group that these days normally headlines arenas (their Take Me Downtown Tour begins in January).
The lucky fans inside the theater were obviously thrilled to be there, too, and that enthusiasm continued to fuel the band's high-energy performance. "We've got fans!" said Kelley at one point, as the crowd eager sang along to their 2010 No. 1 single "Our Kind of Love." "Let's take a moment here, I want to soak this up."

The band kicked off the set with "Downtown," a No. 1 hit for them earlier this year and the first single from their latest album Golden. They entered the stage from the back of the auditorium after the song's funky rhythms had already kicked into gear, then dove right into things, Scott sounding–and looking–as sassy and put together as any contemporary 'downtown' woman could be, dressed in black, wearing bold red lipstick and sporting leather boots with heels as high the Rocky Mountains.
The set included many of the band's biggest hits such as "American Honey," "We Owned the Night" and of course their GRAMMY-winning "Need You Now," as well as new songs from the newly released 'deluxe' version of Golden, including "And the Radio Played" and their current single "Compass." Throughout the set the bandmates–the three principles as well as members of their backing group–moved easily in and around each other, trading vocals and digging hard into keyboard, mandolin and guitar solos.
Scott and Kelley share many of the vocal leads, and they are a fantastic pair, staring each other right in the eyes as they belt out lyrics to songs like "Just a Kiss" and "Need You Now."
One of the surprise moments of the night came about halfway through the show. When introducing the song, Kelley teased that it was a cover many fans probably knew, though they were "going to countrify it up." Then they kicked into "Wake Me Up," a 2013 pop hit by Swedish DJ Avicii.

Quick: what's the last record – or download – you purchased? Do you remember ? Or was it so fast, such an insanely brief click that, like me, you have no idea what it was until your Apple iTunes iBill iStatement arrives online? This is what I'm thinking about today because I buy music all the time – I get lots and lots of it — but it's soooo darn easy that I don't always remember what I've purchased. Unlike childhood, or those teenage years where the selection and procurement of music was a very complicated process indeed. That could affect your mood and behavior all week. See, the Grammy nods are now out and Eminem, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Cee Lo, Lady Antebellum and Justin Bieber (among others) should be thrilled. Congrats to them all. Now, let's say you knew nothing about the Grammys this year but someone came from another planet with some kind of gift card, tapped you on the shoulder, and said "quick, tell us what's popular here so we can take it back to our planet…" Once you recovered from the whole being- tapped-by-an-alien thing, wouldn't you pretty much name those very acts as America's current must-haves? I certainly would. But getting back to the actual buying part. Do you remember what a big deal it used to be to buy music? And not in a bad or complicated way – rather, there was a time when buying music involved any number of laborious decisions based on what you wanted and what you needed. None of this 99c here or there that we have today – it was all about what you had to listen to right now and what could actually wait (because back then if you didn't own it, you'd have to wait for it to be played on your favorite radio station). You had – when I was a kid at least – a certain amount to spend, maybe you got super-lucky with a ten-dollar Sam Goody gift certificate which got you all of one album plus a "45", or perhaps you decided (in an early nod to the notion of less is more/variety is the spice of life) that rather than buy the LP. you'd just opt for several 45s. Which you couldn't even play on your siblings' turntable until you had that special insert disc that affixed to the middle of the record. (By the way, today's poll will involve a People's Choice Favorite Movie Actress Nominee — but before too long I will be asking you about your first album purchases – always extremely telling, I believe). But congrats to the Grammy nominees and now let's get back to the PCA's Favorite Movie Actresses. We've taken a peek at Jennifer Aniston. Then yesterday it was all about Katherine Heigl. So today, let's move to our third fabulous leading lady, the irrepressible Angelina Jolie. Daughter of a Hollywood star (Jon Voight) and one half of perhaps Tinseltown's (and France's, and New Orleans') most glamorous couple, Angelina shares six children with her equally famous partner, Brad Pitt. She is striking, chic, hyper-talented and not a little outspoken. (Or make that not afraid to stand by her convictions/ say almost anything). Plus, she's as well-known for her Oscar, Golden Globe and PCA-winning performances as she is for her tremendous humanitarian efforts and outreach initiatives. Additionally, she's both a powerful dramatic leading lady and a billion-dollar-franchise-promoting-bona fide action star. Which would be quite the winning combo these days even if she didn't have The Tourist coming out costarring Johnny Depp – which I suspect we'll all run to see. I absolutely will. So now, voice your choice in today's featured poll and tell us which of these Angelina Jolie films is your favorite:
1) Changeling
2) Lara Croft: Tomb Raider
3) Mr. And Mrs. Smith
4) Salt

This post marks the official start of the Dear Jane Stickle 2d Cyber Block party. I never guessed when I decided to start an 'interest' thread back on October 23 of last year, that there would be so many wonderful quilters as excited about going on a 'Dear Jane" journey as I. The reason for the new location is so that information will be easier to find. Over the past 12 weeks our numbers have grown to 115 members who have contributed 873 posts. My post/page preferences are set to 20/page and I have over 44 pages!! I have taken some time to gather many [hopefully all] of the wonderful websites and pointers members have shared into this first post. The schedule will be attached to this post and also will be added as an inline text by one of the site moderators and fellow "Janiac" QuiltnNan. I have also asked 'fromZstore' if she could re-post her first blocks for all of us to see. Rose Marie, Feathers N Fur, and pjnesler have some great blocks as well [please don't feel left out – I know more of you have already posted and will post again – we all love to see what you have so far…. I'm done but need to find the computer link to camera card… ***Several members have agreed it would be useful to "meet" on a weekly basis to talk about our blocks for the week. I will be in the chatroom every Tuesday morning 7:30-8:30 am Pacific time. If that time doesn't work out and there is a problem – let us know by posting on the board. If I can't meet – I'm sure there will be another member willing to help. Lets see 100+ new Dear Janes by the end of 2013!!! Requirements: To join you must have access to a Dear Jane book or the DJ software. I have both. With the book, you can use a ruler to determine what size to cut various pieces of your blocks very easily for the easy blocks, or you can copy the pattern onto freezer paper. With the software, you can print out any block pattern you like, adjust the sizes of your block, or pick and choose which blocks to make and arrange them whatever way you like. Printing with software – in order to avoid wasting so much paper when you print your patterns using software you need to "move" the pieces to one side before printing. Turn your paper around and print the next block at the other end of the paper. ..from NDQuilts…"If you are prining just the block outlines the yes you can fit two blocks on a page. I adjust the top margin as narrow as my printer will allow and print block 1, then rotate the paper to print block 2. If I remember you cannot print any text in the header. When doing tris the tri can be nudged via the margins so a right and left tri will fit on one page. I am handpiecing so I print the blocks outlines on freezer paper, (not the provided templates) cut apart with scissors and adhere with the iron. When I cut apart the fabric I add seam allowance. Please see Linda Franz for great instructions on the process." http://lindafranz.com/galleries/my-dear-jane/22 A formula for changing sizes.. to figure triangle size when you change size of blocks - a little math required... determine % increase example: 4.5=100% if you want to make 6" blocks… [6.0 x 100]/4.5 = 600/4.5 =133% …the easiest thing to do is to make a copy of the actual size triangle and set the copier to 'enlarge' size to 133%. The size of the triangle will change from 5x8 to 6 2/3 x 10 2/3 Other Pointers: QAYG [Quilt as you go] tutorial by Lacelady can be found in: [Dear] Jane Stickle Cyber Block Party - Jan 2010 Thru…. Post #3202 – this will be on p.161 if your preferences are set at 20/page There are many locations that have pictures of variations of Dear Janes. Be sure to visit: http://greenfairyquilts.blogspot.com...revisited.html - here you will find DJ done in Kaffe Fasset fabrics. I visit it often to drool over the quilting! Be sure to visit the main Dear Jane site, set up by Brenda Papadakis herself here: http://www.dearjane.com . She has links to many other Janiac sites as well as pointers. Another site just posted by katybob last week can be found here: http://creativeribbons.blogspot.com/...u-gomy-dj.html . She shares her method of QAYG, making her DJ in nine sections. Have to say I'm tempted to adjust my own layout to include a medallion. Love the setting [although I would still include those triangles]! One of the best "help sites" to visit is http://thatquilt.blogspot.com . If you scroll down the page you will find a chart that links you to tutorials for every block in the DJ quilt. DottyD told us that you can use the design wall created by Sharon Mastbrook. It can be found at http://www.smastbrook.net/dj/djvdw.htm Please observe copyright regulations by crediting Sharon if you use her design wall. Another helpful site http://auntreensquilts.blogspot.com/ . Hope to "see" many of you online at 7:30 am Tuesday morning PACIFIC TIME.

ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. - A 27-year-old firefighter at Naval Air Station Mayport has been arrested after St. Augustine police said he beat a man walking across the Bridge of Lions earlier this month.
Joseph Scaglione, of Neptune Beach, is charged with battery. He was arrested by the Naval Criminal Investigative Service and the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office while at work at the Fire Department at Mayport and booked into the Duval County jail on a St. Johns County warrant.
Police said Scaglione was seen stopping his motorcycle on the Bridge of Lions on April 7 and beating a local man while he walked across the bridge.
The victim and two witnesses picked Scaglione out of a photo lineup as the person who committed the battery, police said.

iPhone Game Review: Death Cop - Mechanical Unit
Reviewed by ninjackid
"On a planet at war, a new brigade of mechanical soldiers was created to fight the attacks from experimental and modified creatures commanded by the enemy forces. They are the last resort of a devastated civilization which struggles to avoid its own extinction..."
Ladies and Gents, strap on your weapons, it's time to shoot up some baddies.
In Death Cop by Blue Shadow Games, you pilot one of three playable Mechs in order to set things straight, enforce justice and basically just shoot the living daylights out of anything that stands in your way. There are 16 missions in this straightforward shooter game and each mission is quite different from the others. In fact, the variety of the missions is wider than any Dual-Stick shooter game we?ve seen for the iOS.
In the majority of missions, you control your Mech using the usual twin stick controls, (left stick to move, right to aim and fire). There are two buttons on either side of each screen to switch weapons, and moving the camera is controlled by tapping just above the virtual joysticks on either side of the screen. This setup works rather well, however occasionally I found my left or right thumb sliding out of the joystick area and into the camera area, which could put one in a tight spot while shooting down enemies, but this is nothing game-breaking or anything that hinders the gameplay and you will eventually get used to the positions.
Thrown in with the standard dual stick missions are a few on-rails shooters, a few first person and a few top-down. The controls for the first person missions are simple, swipe the screen to aim and tap either side to shoot. The top-down missions work well, while your left joystick remains, your right stick is changed into a button to shoot. If the variety of missions are enough for you, how about getting some boss fights in the mix. The boss fights are very well done in Death Cop, which I won?t spoil for you here.
While the missions are well designed and fun to play, one thing that might bug players is the fact that there are no mid-mission checkpoints. So if you die in the middle of a mission, you have to start all over, no matter how far you are into the mission, which can get rather frustrating.
There are a total of 11 weapons in Death Cop and you will need to unlock them throughout the game. Weapons have different power levels and characteristics spread out in a nice shooter game staple variety like shotgun, rocket launcher, flamethrower, electric cannon and more. Mechs too offer variety: there are three playable Mechs, each with different stats and AI package. For a shooter game, these weapons and Mechs add ton of replay value to the gameplay.
The graphics for Death Cop are in 3D and they look great. The environment, Mech units and enemy units are well rendered, and special effects for weapons and units are well done. Explosions, firefight scenes and burning mechs all look quite real. There is a nice variety of enemy unit and weapon designs that keep the gameplay interesting and some times surprising. Controls are smooth.
Sound effects and music tracks are also very well done. Most of the missions have a steady rock riff on in the background, which gives a nice, action feel to the game, and it doesn't get too annoying or repetitive. However, it appears there is no option for iPod music.
For fans of action games and Dual Stick shooters, Death Cop: Mechanical Unit is a must-have, and is an easy recommendation for all who are looking for a solid, action-packed shooter. You won?t find the wide variety of shooter gameplay in a single game elsewhere.
Ratings (scale of 1 to 5):
Graphics: - 4 - 3D graphics are great, but nothing extronary.
Sound: - 4 - Good sound tracks enhance the gameplay experience.
Controls: - 4.5 - Controls work extremely well, though the first person shooter mission controls could be tighter.
Gameplay: - 5 - Gameplay is awesome, with three playable mechs, 11 unlockable weapons, 16 missions, destructible environments and great action makes for a great gameplay experience.
Playing Hints and Tips:
-When being ambushed by enemies, always keep moving, remember: a moving target is harder to hit than a still one.

Prices for rare earth elements -- an important component in motors and other electromechanical products -- have jumped by at least an order of magnitude over the past year as a result of export cutbacks from China, the world's largest source of the elements. Alternative supplies promise to provide a surplus, but not as soon as manufacturers using this materials might like.
Rare earth elements such as neodymium (Nd) and dysprosium (Dy) play essential roles in products ranging from motors to white-light LEDs. Permanent magnets containing Nd typically produce magnetic fields five or more times as large as those produced by ferric magnets. The addition of Dy prevents them from demagnetizing at high temperatures. Those attributes make rare earth magnets highly appealing for motor applications.
However, in the past year or so, changes to export quotas by China have sent prices soaring, leaving motor designers in a fix. Solutions range from the old (ferric or even aluminum-nickel-cobalt magnets) to the new (leveraging nanotechnology to get more performance out of smaller amounts of rare earth materials). There's also the obvious route of establishing new supplies.
That approach -- opening or reopening mines outside China -- is already under way around the globe. Molycorp Minerals LLC of Greenwood Village, Colo., has secured permits and $781 million in funding to reopen the Mountain Pass mine in California, which was priced out of the market in 2004. According to a new report from Technology Materials Research LLC of Carpentersville, Ill., sufficient sources exist outside China to compensate for the export cuts as early as 2013 for some elements. (See chart.)
The name notwithstanding, rare earth elements, typically processed as rare earth oxides (REOs), are only scarce when compared with abundant elements like iron and aluminum. Significant deposits exist around the world in locations as varied as South Africa and California. China's current position as the dominant global supplier derived from a mix of circumstances.
Several light REOs are the byproducts of iron ore mining, which is one of China's staple industries. The steps required to extract REOs typically involve toxic or even radioactive materials. And in the past, Chinese suppliers have been subject to less stringent environmental regulation than their international competitors, which helped them undercut prices and ultimately capture around 95 percent of the market.
Though the Chinese government began reducing exports of rare earth materials earlier, the skyrocketing prices can be tied to quota cuts that were imposed in the fall of 2010 and led to a year-over-year reduction in tonnage of around 40 percent.
"There was a significant drop in the official export numbers that was reflected in the price for exported materials," says Gareth Hatch, founding principal at TMR. "It caused some efforts within China to stockpile heavy rare earths. Suppliers started applying a surcharge."

104-89 Raptors Final: Raptors D takes over, Raps end on a 23-2 run including threes from Bargnani and Calderon. The defense stepped up and the Clippers got flustered and took some terrible shots, Baron Davis was deferring at the end and didn't provide the leadership and direction that was needed. In that fourth quarter the Clippers looked as terrible as the Raps looked good. Raps finish -2 on the glass which is pretty good considering they were -11 early. Can't afford to get down 22 against the Suns, though. Good night!
96-89 Raptors 3:10 4th: Clips go into the post to Kaman but Bargnani plays good defense and contests his fadeaway. After two Antoine Wright FTs, Belinelli knocks down another killer step-back 3. He's 6-10 for 15 points with 3 threes.
91-89 3:59 4th: Bargnani and Belinelli run a pick 'n pop for a big Bargnani three after the initial play was broken due to a hard double on Bosh. Telfair's elbow catches Jose who's got blood. Oh yeah! (No harm intended)
89-88 Clips 6:09 4th: Turk hits a three, Calderon's being aggressive again, had a great drive for 2. Belinelli missed an open corner three which would've been big but at some point we'll have to stop Kaman down load and Baron from getting to the lane. This lineup of Telfair and Davis is causing us some defensive problems containing blow-bys.
84-83 Clips 8:37 4th: Craig Smith rips the ball from Bargnani and goes in for an And1 on the break. Clips go up 2 and Baron Davis continues to be aggressive against Jack who can't handle him. Jack's picking up the dribble way too early at times which is killing our offense, lucky for us Belinelli hunts down a clean look for himself and knocks down a deep three behind a screen.
74-74 End 3rd: Raptors could've had a lead if Jack hadn't turned the ball over on the last possession of the quarter.
74-72 Clips 1:13 3rd: If we could slow down Kaman we'd be up big. Bosh with a great offensive rebound for a dunk, he's playing energized but Kaman keeps on scoring against Bargnani on the other end. Kaman: 9-11 FG, 7 rebs, 23 pts in 26 mins. Bargnani's got 3 scores in this quarter but only 2 rebounds for the game!!!
65-61 Clips 3:38 3rd: Jose Calderon exploded. 9 points including an And1 and a 3 against Davis. The Raptors took the lead but the Clippers have come right back with Davis attacking the paint and kicking out to Butler for a three. The Clippers have also picked up the energy since giving up the lead.
55-51 Clips 10:10 3rd: Here we go, Bosh hits two jumpers and one for Bargnani, Clippers and Baron taking long jumpers, keep at it Clips, keep at it. Raps energy is much better, they can smell the lead, both moves by Bosh were aggressive in the post and made Camby wobble. Raps start on a 6-1 run.
54-45 Clips Halftime: Clippers had 5 points in the last 5:30 of the 2nd. Bosh is getting to the line more and the general energy has picked up. Both teams are missing shots left and right but Turkoglu and Bosh have picked it up to make this a game. Baron goes length of the floor in 5 seconds to drain a floater at halftime buzzer. Clips get out of the half clinging to 9 point lead after being up 22. 13/5 for Bosh, 15/3 for Kaman. Bargnani's been quiet and hasn't scored since his early two baskets against Kaman. Both Calderon and DeRozan with only 2. Belinelli's 9 off the bench were big, his two on the break gave us some good momentum and there's also Amir Johnson to thank as his energy was big in the second.
49-37 3:59 2nd: Bosh finally getting something against Craig Smith and Johnson giving us a lift off the bench - good hustle. He's got the Raptors back in this one to some degree. Belinelli's three has cut it to 12 and the Clippers are turning the ball over and missing some good looks. DeRozan's got to calm down, he's shot two airballs tonight and looks very uncomfortable out there.
41-21 Clips 8:17 2nd: More of the same really, except now it's the likes of Steve Novak and Craig Smith killing us. Clips have a 16-5 advantage on the boards and the Raptors offense is starting to smell. Belinelli's trying to shoot us back into the game which isn't working and the Clips are dominating the glass, the flow and the game. Amir Johnson had a rebound torn away from him by Kaman, kind of symbolized the game so far.
34-17 Clips End of 1: The Jack/Calderon lineup is back and so is a 17 point hole. Davis is abusing Calderon at will and setting up people while scoring 7 early, he also had a drive and dunk which you'll see later on ESPN. Bosh is still struggling (0-4) and we've seen Rasho make an early appearance. The second consisting of Jack, Wright and Belinelli struggle to score.
23-13 Clips 3:52 1st: Well, Davis is pushing it in transition against Jose and Thornton just pump-faked Wright out of his pants under the rim for two. Throw in a transition three and the Raptors offense struggling because of a lame Turk and Camby evening Bosh and you got yourself a 10 point hole.
15-13 Raps 5:30 1st: Kaman going at Bargnani and Bargnani going at Kaman. Kaman's got 7 points to Bargnani's 4. Bosh is being kept quiet by Camby so far, the ex-Raptors length is really bothering him. DeRozan started off with a massive brick and TO but had a finish on the break, he's too excited, got to calm down. Turk is wincing every time he runs, give this guy an Advil.
Hedo Turkoglu starts..Raps are Jose, DD, Bosh, Bargs and Turk.
Kaman dodged the swine and is playing..Clips are Thornton, Kaman, Camby, Davis and Butler.
Arse with you here...

Zimmerman ready to play first base if needed
By Andrew Simon / MLB.com
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- Nationals third baseman Ryan Zimmerman was out of the lineup for a second consecutive day on Thursday as the club finished up its Grapefruit League schedule against the Mets at Tradition Field. Manager Matt Williams said Zimmerman has been dealing with a stomach illness that is not considered serious.
Zimmerman's absence means he will complete his spring with a total of two innings at first base, barring an appearance there in Saturday's exhibition game against the Tigers at Nationals Park. Still, Williams suggested that Zimmerman is ready to play the position in a real game, although Wednesday's acquisition of utility man Kevin Frandsen gives the club a more experienced right-handed complement to starter Adam LaRoche.
"He's done a lot of work. He can play over there," Williams said of Zimmerman. "Certainly, [Frandsen] adds to that mix, too. There may be opportunity there, too. I'm comfortable with Zim being over there. He's comfortable with it. His footwork is great. He's done a lot of work that hasn't been seen, because it's on a backfield. Early stuff. He's good."
The plan coming into spring was to get Zimmerman ready to start a handful of games at first against tough left-handed pitchers after LaRoche struggled with southpaws a year ago.
"I think the main part of my thought process was, just to make sure if in fact we got in a situation, we had somebody to play over there," Williams said. "Now that Kevin is here, he certainly has experience. Zim has less experience. But I'm not afraid to do that. He's a fantastic athlete. He catches everything. If it calls for it, and we want to do that, we all feel comfortable we could accomplish that."
Fister leaves Minors start with right lat strain
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- Nationals right-hander Doug Fister left Thursday's Minor League start with a right lat strain, bringing into serious question his readiness for the beginning of the season. The setback could mean that both Taylor Jordan and Tanner Roark, previously battling for the fifth-starter's job, will open in the rotation.
Fister, who dealt with right elbow inflammation earlier this spring, returned from about a three-week absence to pitch against the Marlins on Saturday. He was scheduled to throw 60 pitches against Minor Leaguers on Thursday morning back at the Nats' complex in Viera, Fla., but came out after the first inning. He'll be re-evaluated on Friday in Washington.
"Not on any particular pitch, nothing involving the elbow, but took him out after his first inning as a precaution," manager Matt Williams said. "He'll see the doc in Washington tomorrow. We'll evaluate from there."
Even before the game, Fister had told pitching coach Steve McCatty that he was feeling some tightness in the lat. While McCatty thought Fister was pitching fine, the lat didn't loosen up in the first inning, and Fister told McCatty he felt "a little tugging." The Nats pulled the plug after only 15 pitches.
"I was not going to let him attempt to get through," McCatty said. "If I told him he was all right to go, he probably would have went out there. You got to be smart in those situations."
Asked if the injury is serious, Williams said he didn't know and that, "It's a little early to tell right now."
Previously, Fister was on track to start on April 6 against the Braves. Jordan and Roark are both scheduled to pitch in Saturday's exhibition game against the Tigers in Washington, and a decision was to be made at that point about who would fill the No. 5 spot in the rotation. While the Nats are not setting anything in stone yet, it appears likely that both will open 2014 as Major League starters.
"They both earned the right to pitch," Williams said. "We'll have to see. We'll have to see how [Fister] feels tomorrow, what the doctor says, where we're at. But right now, we just know he couldn't make it through his start today."
Frandsen joins Nats, excited for opportunity
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- Over the past five days, Kevin Frandsen has felt a whole range of emotions.
The veteran utility man, outrighted off the Phillies' 40-man roster on Sunday, forfeited a guaranteed $900,000 contract by opting for free agency, then signed with the Nationals on Wednesday, reportedly for the same amount, plus incentives. He joined his new teammates on Thursday for their final Grapefruit League game against the Mets.
"Ultimately, it went from shock on Sunday to sick to my stomach on Monday, then Tuesday being really confident what I was about to do," said Frandsen, who came off the bench to go 1-for-2 with a double.
Frandsen spent the past three years in the Phillies' organization and much of the past two as a versatile backup infielder and pinch-hitter with the big league club. He figures to fill the same role with the Nats. The 31-year-old can play first, second and third base, is a career .289/.343/.435 hitter against left-handed pitching and last year led the Majors with 14 pinch-hits, although his overall offensive numbers slipped.
Frandsen said he enjoyed his time with Philadelphia and that the coaching staff, especially manager Ryne Sandberg, "meant the world" to him and his family. But this was a business decision, on both ends.
"They made their decision, thought I was roster flexibility, and I didn't feel that way," he said. "I have a lot more pride in myself, I feel like."
Frandsen called it a "leap of faith" to opt for free agency but considers himself a winning big league player and thought he could get that opportunity elsewhere. Although he's barely had a chance to meet his new teammates, he's excited for what the Nats might be able to accomplish.
"I'm jealous of all my buddies in San Francisco that have two rings now," said Frandsen, who was drafted by the Giants and spent time with them from 2006-09. "I want my hands to be a little heavier."
Nats re-sign reliever Gonzalez to Minors deal
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. --Two days after releasing left-hander Michael Gonzalez, the Nationals re-signed the veteran reliever to a Minor League contract.
Gonzalez originally had signed a Minor League deal with an invitation to Spring Training on March 4. The 35-year-old appeared in four Grapefruit League games, giving up four runs on seven hits in four innings, with one walk and five strikeouts.
The Nationals are prepared to enter the season with Jerry Blevins and converted starter Ross Detwiler as the two lefties out of their bullpen. Xavier Cedeno, who also was competing for a roster spot, was optioned to Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday, giving Washington some solid depth in the Minors.
"That's part of the organizational strength that we have," manager Matt Williams said. "There's only so many spots on the roster. But there's a lot of very qualified folks here. That's a good thing. Mike certainly was late showing up and only got a few appearances."
Gonzalez, who also pitched for the Nats in 2012, posted a 4.68 ERA in 75 appearances for the Brewers last season.
Worth noting
Williams still has not made an official decision about his starting second baseman, although he said he would "take a hard look" at Anthony Rendon for the Opening Day nod. Rendon and Danny Espinosa both could see starts at second this season, although Espinosa also could fit as a utility man. Rendon, recovering from a chest cold, played his third straight game on Thursday and went 0-for-5.
"We have one more game to play [before the regular season]," Williams said. "I think it's premature at this point, still, to declare anybody. But I'm leaning toward Anthony in that regard, but we'll see. He's been sick. We have to make sure he's through his illness and all that stuff. But the last couple of days, he's seemed to come through it fine."

Avisail making progress toward '14 return
By Scott Merkin / MLB.com
BOSTON -- Avisail Garcia took batting practice on the field Monday for the first time in his extended rehab program from the torn labrum and avulsion fracture in his left shoulder sustained while diving for a fly ball in right on April 9 at Colorado.
While White Sox general manager Rick Hahn won't change the original timeframe that had the powerful right fielder being sidelined for the season, he did present a glimmer of real hope that Garcia could play again this season.
"Is it possible he returns to Major League play this year? Yes, it is possible. However, we are still many steps in the rehabilitation away from that," Hahn said Monday at Fenway Park. "Ultimately, the decision about whether Avi plays at the big league level this year will be dictated primarily by his health and secondarily by what's best for his development.
"The club's performance, the club's won-loss record, the situation of the club later in the season once he has progressed to that level, will not be relevant in deciding whether or not he's going to play. It's going to be decided by his health and what's best for his development going forward.
"He has obviously done a tremendous job in his rehabilitation," Hahn said. "Our doctors feel very good 12 weeks post-op that physiologically the fracture and the repair have healed, so now it's just a matter of slowly progressing him back into baseball activities and see what timeline that leads to in terms of a potential return."
At the very least, Garcia looks more certain for playing winter baseball or even in the Arizona Fall League. Garcia told MLB.com at the end of May that he had not given up hope for coming back this season, and that hope might produce a September callup of sorts.
"Putting aside the physical issue, which we seem to be slowly getting to the other side of, which is obviously quite good, the biggest problem with Avi's injury is missing that development time at the big league level," Hahn said. "He's still a young kid. Getting him those repetitions at the big league level, those plate appearances are very important.
"So yes, there is, from a developmental standpoint, a benefit to getting late decent ABs if, again, his health and prudence dictates that makes sense. We do see benefit in that."
Hahn quipped that the White Sox will have to teach Garcia the outfield slide when going for fly balls, avoiding the headfirst attempt that cost him much of the '14 season. While any player with an injury is at a heightened risk of re-injury, Hahn said that risk for Garcia is no greater today than it will be five years from now.
Hahn not feeling urgency to make moves
BOSTON -- In the opening stages of this current White Sox reshaping process, the White Sox felt a need to move veterans Jake Peavy, Matt Thornton, Jesse Crain and Alex Rios before the 2013 non-waiver Trade Deadline to get younger, controllable talent to enhance the product.
That same urgency is not felt by general manager Rick Hahn as the present July 31 deadline approaches, despite names from Dayan Viciedo to John Danks to Gordon Beckham to even All-Star Alexei Ramirez being tossed around the rumor mill.
"We are at a different point," Hahn said. "There's certainly no urgency to do anything. I think most of the players I've read about online that are rumored to be out there are all under control beyond this season. There's no urgency to cash in an asset, so to speak, before it expires.
"Again, we are willing to make a deal at any point where it makes most sense for our long-term interests. Whether that happens in the next two weeks or it takes until the offseason or Spring Training next year, we are not going to force the issue."
Hahn added that pitching remains a priority but has always been a team priority even when the club seemed to have an abundance of top-notch arms.
"There's never really a spot where any of the 30 clubs feel like they have enough pitching," Hahn said.
Abreu's parents to attend All-Star Game
BOSTON -- Many stories have been told about Jose Abreu's deep connection to his mother, and of course how he missed both his mother and father while playing for the White Sox in Chicago. They were not in Cuba, but until two months ago, they also weren't in the United States.
Abreu's parents currently are living in Florida, but have watched him play in Chicago. They will get a chance to see their son perform on an even bigger stage at next Tuesday's All-Star Game at Target Field.
"There are no words to describe how I feel just to be able to have them be there for something that you work as hard as I have for this," said Abreu through interpreter and White Sox manager of cultural development Lino Diaz. "There are some times when I'm talking to them and I'm telling them about these things that they don't believe and sometimes I don't believe that it's happening. It is a great thing and we enjoy it."
Abreu and Alexei Ramirez became the eighth pair of Cuban teammates in Major League Baseball history to be selected to the All-Star Game and second for the White Sox. Minnie Minoso and Sandy Consuegra made the AL team in 1954. Abreu stands as the White Sox fifth rookie All-Star, joining Ron Kittle (1983), Carlos May (1969), Tommie Agee (1966) and Minoso (1951).
Gillaspie out of lineup with sore right knee
BOSTON -- Conor Gillaspie had noticeably better movement getting around the visitors' clubhouse at Fenway Park on Monday in comparison to when he took a Dominic Leone pitch off of his right knee in Sunday's 1-0 victory over the Mariners. Gillaspie left that game and was out of Monday's lineup.
"He's moving a little better," said White Sox manager Robin Ventura. "But he's sore, and we just felt it was better to give him today and make sure he's able to get out there and move around and dive and do all that stuff. He's pretty sore today."
Gillaspie had X-rays on the knee that showed no break. He has some swelling in the joint on a pitch that ricocheted off his knee and bounced high into the air, sounding as bad as it looked.
"It's not pleasant," Ventura said. "Hopefully, by tomorrow he should be fine. By the miracle of [White Sox head athletic trainer] Herm [Schneider], he might be able to pinch-hit tonight. He probably could. I don't know if he'd stay in there, but he might be able to pinch-hit."
Third to first
• Hahn had nothing to update in regard to negotiations between the White Sox and Carlos Rodon, their top pick in the 2014 First-Year Player Draft and No. 3 overall selection. The White Sox and Rodon's camp have kept the ongoing negotiations almost completely out of the media.
July 18 stands as the deadline to sign the left-handed hurler. If Rodon does not sign and returns to North Carolina State, the White Sox will get the fourth pick in 2015 along with their own. Hahn also wouldn't speculate as to whether the extended negotiations have cost Rodon a chance to pitch for the White Sox this season.
"I don't think it's really fair to plot something out until he's on campus and in uniform and working with our guys and we can see exactly where he is," said Hahn. "Obviously, he hasn't thrown a pitch since May 16, so time has passed since then and ultimately, should we get him in here, we have to start the process of building him back up before assessing any timeline."
• Since June 23, the White Sox have the best AL starters' ERA at 2.79.

SNOW HILL – The multi-party wrongful death civil suit filed by the family of an Easton man struck and killed while crossing Coastal Highway in June 2007 was finally settled last week after nearly two years of legal wrangling, but the terms of the settlement have not been disclosed.
Shortly before 2 a.m. on June 17, 2007, Tyler Adams, 21, of Easton, and a friend, Dale Blankenship, 21, also of Easton, attempted to cross Coastal Highway between 32nd and 33rd streets when they were struck by a southbound vehicle, a Jeep Cherokee, driven by 19-year-old Brian Scott of Orwigsburg, Pa. Blankenship was struck in the foot and received only minor injuries, but Adams was struck head-on and launched over the vehicle. He died two days later.
Absent any substantial criminal charges against Scott in the case, the victim's family filed a civil suit in August 2007 seeking a combined $1.75 million in compensatory and punitive damages against the driver. Last week, after nearly two years of complex legal proceedings including a long, back-and-forth debate about the presence of actual malice on behalf of the defendant, the parties officially reached a settlement in the case and it was dismissed with prejudice.
However, the terms of the settlement remain confidential. In a joint stipulation of dismissal filed last Wednesday, attorneys on both sides told the court "please be advised that all of the parties in the above captioned case have agreed to a settlement of all claims," and "the parties are in the process of consummating the settlement and will do so within the next 15 days."
Attorney Ernest Cornbrooks represented the defendant Scott in the case, while attorney James Otway represented the victim's mother, Holly Davis. The victim's father, Timothy Adams, joined the case in midstream in January 2008 as an intervenor and was represented by local attorney Bruce Bright. Otway and Bright could not be reached for comment this week, and Cornbrooks issued a brief statement about the settlement.
"I have no authority to comment on the dismissal of this case," he said.
From the beginning, the civil suit revolved around an all too familiar scenario in the resort area. According to the facts of the case, Scott was intoxicated and underage at the time of the collision and ran a red light, while Adams was also suspected of being intoxicated and was not in a crosswalk. The defense argued there was no presence of malice in the case, a standard for non-intentional torts in Maryland, while the plaintiffs argued Scott's actions did constitute actual malice.

Tom Cruise Ditching Scientology in Attempt to Win Back Katie Holmes?
Tom Cruise has never been overly burdened with self-awareness, so it's with a hairy eyeball that we bring you a report that alleges he's ready to ditch the bad press-plagued Church of Scientology as part of a master plan to persuade Katie Holmes to give him another chance.
''It was a terrifying and rude awakening for Tom when Katie served him with divorce papers," a source contends to the London Mirror. "He's used to feeling undefeatable and untouchable. When he lost Katie, he felt [like] a failure."
Cruise, who reportedly hasn't seen 6-year-old daughter Suri in three months, has been a Scientology devotee for more than 25 years. According to Rolling Stone, he's supposedly reached a level within the church that promises adherents total control over their environment, including "the ability to move inanimate objects with their minds, leave their bodies at will and telepathically communicate with, and control the behavior of, both animals and human beings."
But the Mirror purports that he's now "distancing himself" from the L. Ron Hubbard-founded religion because he believes it contributed to the end of his marriages to Holmes and Nicole Kidman (his first union, to Mimi Rogers, ended because, as she told Playboy in 1993, "Tom was seriously thinking of becoming a monk. He thought he had to be celibate to maintain the purity of his instrument.").
"He has always used the Scientology techniques, but he has now realized they don't work in marriage," asserts the spy, who dubiously posits that Holmes would "reconsider" her newfound freedom if Cruise made a clean break from the church.
"She was in love with Tom," says the source. "He was her childhood crush. It took a lot of strength to break free. But now she has peace of mind but no love."
Of course, considering that it's only been two months since the divorce was finalized, perhaps Holmes is giving herself a little time to heal before bringing someone new into the New York life she's building with Suri.
And before you start yelling, "Noooooooo! Run, Katie, run!" we checked with Cruise's rep. She tells Wonderwall that talk he's leaving Scientology in hopes of winning back Holmes is "false."
Besides, if you believe Radar Online, the actress wants to take up with an artistic type, presumably to go along with her lower-key, subway-riding, post-Tom lifestyle.
"Katie doesn't want to tie herself down just yet, but she says she's done going out with actors," says a snitch. "Katie's more interested in the quiet life now, and an unassuming artist would fit the bill perfectly for when she's ready."

And I guess it's sorta timely/appropriate as I believe it's the 10th anniversary? First thoughts: saw Serenity a few years ago but probably like many non-Firefly fans couldn't really make head nor tail of it, and barely recall it now. The main things that left an impression were a kick-ass fight at the beginning and the main lead, who seemed very much a cool wise-cracker in the Han Solo mode. Errr...that's it. But I've been reliably led to believe that there is much to discover and enjoy over the next 14 weeks.

|Mark J. and I started at the trail located exactly at the 58.0 mile marker. We ended up proceeding off trail up the mountain and ended to the right (East) of the last ski lift. This allowed us to see the geological tracking station, which has an explanatory sign, and also view the high desert to the North. This turned out to be quite fun, and we would periodically crossed the use road then headed up again.

I have had my GTL for about a year.
I was off to do a two week tour while on vacation. I took the bike to my selling dealer Eurocycles of Tampa from whom I purchased the bike. They are an excellent dealer and I have been generally pleased with them.
The bike has issues. The starter failed. (4500 miles on it) There were no replacements available.
It is now 9 days later and the starter has arrived however without a spacer that may or may not be required. The dealer has inquired of BMW but they do not have an answer. I contacted BMW customer service first 9 days ago and spoke to first a Duaa and then an Ata for assistance regarding the repair and trip interruption. I was told to expect a call back. I did not get one until a week later this time from a Jody Snively who said that no decison had yet been made on assisting me! She was to call me back again but has not as of yet. I have left her a couple of messages since.
I have incurred hundreds of dollars in hotel bills and transportation back to my home in Tallahasse some 250 miles away. My vacation is now ruined.
This is BMW's flagship long distance touring machine?
I have over $30k invested in it. I also have an issue with the bluetooth sound from the XM radio module which is extremely distorted. BMW has not seemed fit to address this problem either and has not returned my calls nor the dealers. I have called Schuberth and they said the problem is with the bike's electronics.
This is extremely disapointing. This is my seventh BMW motorcycle but may well be my last.

Finding the Best Self Tanner
Summer's here ... my absolute favorite time of year! I truly embrace the long hot days and the copious amounts of sunshine. While this warm season used to be the time to sport a brilliantly tanned body, nowadays no one should be spending any time sunning themselves. To the rescue: Self tanners that give you the look without the skin damage. And while older self tanners stayed on for days, the newest ones wash off. These new products are formulated without DHA (dihydroxyacetone), an active ingredient in long-lasting self tanners which some folks are allergic to.
We tested six temporary tanners by having women try them at home and here in the Beauty Lab. Our testers told us whether or not the products gave them a good tan, provided even coverage, and a had a natural look. In the lab, we timed how long it took for them to dry, evaluated their ability to moisturize the skin, and analyzed whether or not they messed clothing even when we subjected them to high heat and humidity in Good Housekeeping's Climatology Lab. We also checked to see if they permanently stained flooring and clothing during application.
The Winner: Victoria Secret's Beach Sexy Flawless Airbrush Instant Bronze Body Spray. Once applied, it dried quickly and didn't get on clothing even when we simulated hot and muggy conditions in the lab. Panelists found it easy to use and liked the scent. But one word of caution: If you spray it on your clothing, it may leave a stain. This product retails for $12, and can be found in Victoria's Secret stores or on the

The journalist of Première Magazine was the only one in France to go on the set in Montepulciano, where he was lucky to observe the shooting during two days and to meet Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Chris Weitz and the producers Patrick Wachsberger and Wyck Godfrey.
There is also a funny crossed interview with Charlie Bewley and Daniel Cudmore, who have two or three accounts to be settled with Rob... Without forgetting two new pics of the film (a world exclusivity)."

A lot of the columns I've been writing lately have been about the ins and outs of character development -- how to create a character that is rooted in the world and has a sense of realism, what that character should be aware of. But those are only the stepping stones to developing a character once you've chosen what to be. How do you go about choosing a character in the first place?
While you could simply flip through the character creation screen and pick whatever looks pleasing to the eye, if you wanted to, you may want to give it a little more thought than that. If you're looking for long-term roleplay, throwing aside a character because it just doesn't feel right once you've gone through all the work to make it viable seems like a gigantic waste of time. So let's break it down to the choices available, and the pros and cons of each, and make it a little simpler to figure out.


text: Submitted by on Thu, 2012-12-20 10:13 Conservation West of The Rockies Vote Up Down +153 + all_in_favor.jpg By Garrett VeneKlasen I haven't had much faith in humanity lately. I don't think many of us have. The tragedies of late haven't helped my faith in my fellow man. And as the father of a beautiful six-year-old girl, I've felt my usual cynicism dip even deeper. It was hard to get out of bed this past Saturday. But the Secretary of the Interior, Ken Salazar, and Congressman Ben Ray Lujan, were coming to Taos to hold a public forum on a proposal to designate the Rio Grande del Norte a national monument. The Rio Grande del Norte is about 236,000 acres of BLM land and contains some of the most spectacular lands and public hunting and fishing habitat in all of New Mexico. Wild trout, game herds … majestic country … it's a place that speaks to the sportsman's heart. Secretary Salazar and Congressman Lujan were both humble and gracious that morning. They weren't politicians, just two middle-aged men at a loss for words or answers. It was a standing-room-only event with nearly 200 citizens in attendance. Democracy was alive and well that morning. There was a troop of mixed-race Boy Scouts standing proudly in the back of the room. Grazing permittees stood shoulder to shoulder with environmentalists. But it didn't stop there. There were tribal elders and eleventh-generation Norteños, a smattering of newly settled out-of-state folks who moved to Taos for the beauty of the land and diversity of the community. There were conservative Republicans and far left-leaning Democrats, old-school Catholics and new age spiritualists, wealthy folks and not-so-wealthy folks. Private landowners, county officials, business owners, outfitters, hunters, anglers, bikers, birders, rafters, ranchers, hippies, cowboys and veterans all showed up in force. For a brief moment, we put our differences aside and were a true community in the greatest sense of the word. Amazingly different people came together to speak on behalf of protecting our beloved Rio Grande and its surrounding lands. There were moving speeches about spirituality, connectedness, ecological diversity, mental health, cultural preservation, community, mindfulness, self-reliance, independence, truth, beauty, joy, grace and hope. Some were even moved to tears. I know I was. And it seemed that the collective message that rang out loud and clear was this; that without preserving and protecting our public lands and having access to them, the people of northern New Mexico would fall out of step with the natural cycles that have defined humanity's existence and New Mexican culture for millennia. That if we were to lose our vital connection with nature and the land, we as a community would be in danger of losing our sense of self and humanity. In the weeks to come there will be much discussion on topics that will no doubt divide us more than they will unite us—perhaps some of the answers lie in our ties to the land, I don't know. But I do know, that on that morning, we as a community put aside differences, and gathered for something, instead of against something. That alone gives me a tremendous amount of hope.

The railroad, on its website, said the schedule change "brings the first round of record service improvements, adding 69 trains per week to our East of Hudson service. That includes 15 additional weekday and 30 additional weekend trains on the New Haven Line and 24 additional weekend trains on the Harlem Line."
Metro-North notes, "We are extending half-hourly service between Grand Central [Terminal] and New Haven [Conn.] by three hours on Saturday and four hours on Sunday to accommodate our growing weekend ridership."
The railroad also is bolstering skip-stop or "semi-express" service on the New Haven Line during the weekend. "New semi-express trains depart New Haven at 12:31p.m., 1:31p.m., and 5:29p.m., stopping at our busiest stations on the way to Stamford, before proceeding to Harlem-125th Street and Grand Central. This change enables us to provide inbound half-hourly service on the outer New Haven Line from 7 a.m. through 6p.m. on Saturdays, and through 7p.m. on Sundays (except between the hours of 2p.m. and 4p.m.).
"New semi-express trains will depart Grand Central for New Haven at 3:34p.m.., 8:34 p.m. and 9:34 p.m., running express to Stamford and then making stops at the busiest stations on the way to New Haven. We will now provide outbound half-hourly service on the outer New Haven Line from 3 p.m. through 10 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays.
"On Sundays, half-hourly service will be offered between Grand Central and Stamford from 11 a.m. until 5 p.m. inbound, and from 1:30 p.m. until 7:30 p.m. outbound. (Until now, we have offered only hourly Stamford local service on Sundays.)
"Finally," Metro-North said, "to accommodate requests from the Connecticut Rail Commuter Council and the Connecticut Department of Transportation (CDOT), hourly off-peak and weekend trains will make all stops between New Haven and Stamford, providing all main line stations with hourly service during these periods. (Trains departing New Haven and Grand Central on the half-hour will not make these additional stops.)"

Something different for ChristmasThursday, December 16th, 2010
Chilli Beef with Lime and Palm Sugar Dressing
Here's the quintessential westernized Thai beef salad. It's so good!
Plum pudding ice cream
Christmas in a mouthful! And, a bonus, this can be made several days in advance, the problem being that you just might start tucking in! Time to prep 25 minutes plus chilling time.
A few rules for Christmas catering
- Keep freshly cooked food at room temperature only as long as you need to, and keep it covered. Refrigerate it as soon as possible after serving.
- Don't reheat all the leftovers if they are not all going to be eaten in one meal, just serve up what you think you'll eat and reheat it and keep the rest covered and refrigerated.
- Watch out for full fridges — constant opening and closing and overloading can raise the temperature inside the fridge which can prevent food chilling quickly and cause spoilage.
- Ensure all food is in leak-proof containers and covered with lids or food wrap to prevent leaking and contamination.
- Food doesn't usually improve in the fridge — it's a slow death, so get to it before it dies!

a gratuity of 18% will be added automatically to parties of 8 or more.
Isn't this a disincentive to take along parties of 8 or more? Is this in addition to sales tax? Are the menu prices inclusive of any required taxes, or do they come on top at the end? On top of this gratuity as well? Are you still expected to tip or is that what this is?

Five school districts in Clatsop and Tillamook counties along with Northwest Regional Education Service District (NWRESD), have joined forces in a new mentor program to provide much needed instructional and emotional support for new teachers. Participation in mentoring programs can help improve the retention of new teachers and renew the enthusiasm and expertise of veteran teachers.
Collectively called the "NORTH COAST CONSORTIA FOR THE OREGON MENTORING GRANT", the program provides a positive induction into the teaching profession and encourages veteran teachers in the two-county area to evaluate their own teaching and collaborate with other teachers whom they wouldn't normally have an opportunity to work with.
County Education Coordinators Kim Durrer (Tillamook) and Paula Mills (Clatsop) have been assisting with the coordination of the financial and reporting responsibilities of the grant, as well as coordinating and leading training sessions for the mentor teachers.
Initial response from the mentees has been overwhelmingly positive. One new teacher reported that one of her interview questions for her district was whether the district had a mentoring program available and that the availability of a mentor was one of the reasons she accepted her position.
The mentors are receiving training from the New Teacher Center through the Oregon Department of Education. Additionally, Kim and Paula are also participating in this high quality training so they can work with the mentors in monthly mentor forums. In total, the mentors will complete seven days of training over the course of the year.
The grant will support nineteen new teachers and their mentors and will continue throughout the 2012-2013 school year, and provided renewal of the grant, will continue in future years.
