By Mike Lehman, TTU Sports Information
COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – For those who needed proof of just how dominant sophomore David Hess was on the mound over the weekend, look no further as the righty earned Collegiate Baseball newspaper Louisville Slugger National Player of the Week honors.
Hess was lights out Thursday night, shutting down the Belmont offense behind a career performance. The righty struck out a staggering career-high 11 Bruin batters in just 4.1 innings of work. He faced 14 batters, allowing just one hit and walking none to earn his seventh win of the year. His strikeout total accounted for 85% of his total outs in the contest, the second highest percentage in the nation this season by a pitcher who tossed at least four innings. Five of his 11 Ks were looking.
It is because of his pitching performance over the weekend, that Hess also earned adidas OVC co-Pitcher of the Week honors Monday afternoon.
The honor marks the first of the young pitcher's career, although Hess is no stranger to being recognized by the OVC. Last season, he was named to the 2012 OVC All-Freshman Team.
Hess has had a fantastic season for the Golden Eagles, compiling a 7-2 record as both a starter and key relief pitcher out of the bullpen. The sophomore has tossed 60.2 innings, allowing just 66 hits and 17 walks. He ranks second on the team in strikeouts with 73 and holds a solid 3.56 ERA, allowing batters to hit just .280.
Collegiate Baseball newspaper is a tabloid publication that is dedicated to covering college and high school baseball nationwide. The Collegiate Baseball newspaper poll is the oldest college baseball poll. Its birth took place during the 1957 college baseball season.
Louisville Slugger National Players of the Week:
• OF Nick Ferdinand, Delaware: Ferdinand had a monster 3-game series against James Madison as he belted 4 home runs, 1 double and knocked in 7 runs with 5 runs scored. He was 5-for-12 and ended the season as the Colonial Athletic Association leader with 14 home runs.
• RHP David Hess, Tennessee Tech.: Hess struck out 11 of 14 batters he faced over 4 1/3 innings of work against Belmont. He allowed one hit and walked none to earn his seventh win of the year. His strikeout total accounted for 85 percent of his total outs in the contest, the second highest percentage in the nation this season by a pitcher who tossed at least four innings.
• LHP Carlos Rodon, N.C. State: Rodon struck out 15 batters during a 7-6, 10-inning win over Duke. He allowed four earned runs and threw 128 pitches during nine innings of work.

Last week, two consultants from Booz & Company published their own analysis of the problems in the Booz house journal, strategy+business.
Alex Kandybin and Vessela Genova deduced the strategic choices of 10 major pharma companies (Abbott, AstraZeneca, Bayer, GlaxoSmithKline, Johnson & Johnson, Merck, Novartis, Pfizer, Roche, Sanofi) through their acquisitions and divestitures from 2004-2010. Nine of the 10 have bet on biologics, five on OTC, four on generics and one (Sanofi) on animal health.
They draw an analogy to the choices of the computer industry:
Most industries go through periods of both deterministic and stochastic development. For instance, the computer industry in the 1960s and '70s had all the characteristics of a deterministic process. IBM, Burroughs, Cray, and others pursued similar strategies, selling giant data processing machines known as main- frames. The personal computer changed the dynamics of the industry, triggering a turbulent stochastic period. It became impossible to predict where the computer industry was going, and in the early 1980s the incumbent players' strategies diverged significantly.This is, alas, an inaccurate revisionist view of the industry: in the 1980s, it was quite clear that the PC was democratizing computers and that standardized microprocessors enabled market entry and reduced margins.
More importantly, the computer industry of the 1970s has significant a priori heterogeneity: it was not for nothing that people referred to IBM and the Seven Dwarfs (or IBM and the BUNCH). Cray was in a very narrow and dangerous niche diametrically opposed to commoditization trends and desperately dependent on Cold War spending.
One place where the authors clearly have it right is that big pharma is fleeing from the highest margins in the life sciences (and among the highest margins anywhere) towards average or sub-average margins. The operating margins of pharmaceuticals is 29%, vs. 12% for generics, 8% for services and 2% for drug wholesaling.
This is utterly consistent with the 15-year-old observations of Clay Christensen: lower cost solutions eventually supplant higher cost solutions, destroying margins. Or, as my former colleagues Jason Dedrick and Ken Kraemer showed in their 1998 book, IBM's shift from hardware to services dramatically grew revenues but cut margins.
What to do? The authors offer fairly generic (i.e. undifferentiated) advice: firms should embrace change, consider multiple scenarios, and assess the firm's unique capabilities.
In the end, the old model of one-size-fits-all drug is breaking down. What will replace it? One prediction is personalized, genomic-based medicine. But even if that's true, many uncertainties remain, including how quickly that future will get here and which part of the value chain will be the most unique and thus valuable.

The Central Bank's trading bracket for the US Dollar ended the week at [1,501-1,514] implying an end of week average LL/USD exchange rate of 1,507.50. Lebanon's balance of payments (BoP) recorded a cumulative deficit of $289.1 million in 2000 compared to a surplus of $267.7 million in 1999.
The BoP registered a deficit of $133.5 million in December compared to a deficit of $65.3 million in November and a surplus of $99.8 million in December of the previous year. The December deficit was caused by a decrease of $12.5 million in the Central Bank's net foreign assets and a drop of $121 million in those of banks and financial institutions. The 2000 deficit constitutes the second year in 10 years that the BoP registers a deficit on a yearly basis.
The Central Bank's index of economic activity in Lebanon, an average of 12 weighted economic indicators, reached 194.7 in December compared 198.8 in November and 196.3 in
December 1999. The yearly average for the index was 191 compared to an average of 185 in
1999. The index ended the year down 0.82 percent from 1999 compared to an increase of 1.4 percent from 1998. The results continue to reflect the prevailing economic slowdown in the country.
Figures released by the Finance Ministry show that Lebanon's net public debt totaled $23.43 billion at the end of December, constituting an increase of 17.74 percent in 2000. Net domestic debt reached $16.27 billion, increasing by 14.75 percent in 2000, while foreign debt rose 25.81 percent this year to $6.967 billion. Foreign currency borrowing accounts for 30 percent of total net public debt and reflects the ongoing restructuring of the debt as the
Lebanese government is gradually shifting towards foreign financing in order to borrow at lower cost and over a longer period of time.
Customs revenues reached $94.2 million in January 2001, up 29.1 percent from December and down 12.35 percent from the same period last year. Income from customs and tariffs totaled $1.15 billion last year and accounted for 43 percent of budgetary receipts in 2000 compared to 44 percent and 47 percent in 1999 and 1998, respectively. — ( Lebanon Invest )

(CMT Offstage keeps a 24/7 watch on everything that's happening with country music artists behind the scenes and out of the spotlight.)
You can't literally steal Blake Shelton's talent, per se. But someone may steal the talent he's chosen on The Voice. It's part of a change the show is making for the upcoming season which starts Sept. 10. During the battle rounds, the four coaches will be allowed to steal each other's contestants. What I don't understand is what kind of bargaining tools each coach will have. Say Christina Aguilera passes on a singer, and Shelton picks that singer for his team. But then Aguilera changes her mind and wants to steal that singer away. What does Shelton get in return? How do they make it an even trade? We'll have to wait for the show to start to see how that works. The show is also going to start allowing substitute coaches to fill in when one of the original four has a scheduling conflict. I hope anyone who subs for Shelton is like-minded and has the same taste in music and humor. Big shoes to fill, I know, but the show just wouldn't be the same without that kind of personality.

I am part of Warner Bros PR and I am reaching to leading blogs like yours in hopes of gaining your support for a some really powerful and empowering new series on our sister company's network TNT.Hmm... yeah? Empowering?
We are thrilled to announce the season premiere of SAVING GRACE with HOLLY HUNTER and the all-new medical drama HAWTHORNE with JADA PINKETT SMITH.So by empowering, you mean, women? Presumably, because I'm a woman and I have a blog, my blog is empowering. I suppose if I eat a sandwich, it empowers me. Is this supposed to boost my self-esteem? Because it doesn't. The implication is that I'm not operating at full speed and needed some outside source of power.

I am not a Christian nor a Muslim. I am a compassionate human being. Since I believe that all life is precious; even misguided, murdering morons, I feel compelled to give the 71 Trained soldiers of ISIS a bit of humain advice.
First, I would not advise attacking any major city in Michigan. Battle Creek, Detroit, Flint, Lansing. REALLY - REALLY bad idea! Oh and don't even think about going into the U.P. You get orders to go to Michigan's Upper Peninsula. That will be the last time you hear from your boss and the last time your boss hears from you. There will be no bodies, no news reports, no signs that you were ever there. No objective met, no virgins for you!
Illinois - now that's a good place to attack! I hear that near and around the southside of Chicago is a target rich environment. People there are really friendly and trusting. Feel free to walk up to anyone just standing on a corner and ask for directions.
Not sure how to advise on Maryland and Virginia. Just be real carefull. There are a ton of heavily armed civilians just dieing to kill something.
Now I'm not sure if you are aware of this or not, but California undergoes wildfires and property loss in the billions every year. Also, "The Big One" is coming which means the whole state is going to sink into the Pacific anyway. Don't waste your time.
End the end you will all be dead and no matter what damage you cause, no one will care or remember. Perhaps you should use your PS2's to play games instead of planning failed attempts.

Click here for our Windows Server 2008 VPS service utilising Hyper-V starting from $80 per month
June 26 will forever be remembered in history as the day Microsoft released Hyper-V to the server masses.
Ok, well maybe it isn't THAT memorable but it is still a pretty important piece of software in the Windows Hosting arena.
Why? Well i'm glad you asked…
Hyper-V is a hypervisor-based virtualisation platform that allows multiple concurrent operating systems to share a single host computer.
Now while Virtual Private Server technology has been around for many years now in many forms, Hyper-V, like any hypervisor based technology, brings additional benefits to the table:
Both Intel and AMD provide technology to allow Hypervisor-aware operating systems more direct access to the CPU.
Previously, VPS software has had to emulate the processor in order to convince the operating system it has a CPU all to itself.
In an effort to get around the performance limitations in older technology, products such as Parallels Virtuozzo sub-divide
a single operating system instance to give the appearance of multiple separate servers.
This method of virtualisation has many limitations as it does not provide true isolation. A misbehaving program on one partition could potentially
access the memory of another and cause corruption or worse.
Hyper-V on the other hand will have none of those shenanigans. Each operating system instance is completely isolated and it is almost
impossible for one to interfere with another.
Hyper-V comes with many administrative tools that make managing virtual servers a whole lot easier for system admins such as myself.
We will be integrating many of these features into our hostControl control panel for end users to access.
Friendly product licensing from Microsoft??? It's true, Hyper-V licensing for virtual servers is simple.
One copy of the Windows Server 2008 Data Centre Edition license allows an unlimited amount of virtual servers on a single machine.
So what does this all mean for the end user then?
Purchasing a Hyper-V based virtual server from providers such as Studiocoast has the following benefits:
Install whatever you want, whenever you want with full Administrative access.
Reboot the server yourself into you're blue in the face if you want, it is all yours!
Each virtual server can have memory or disk space upgraded at the click of a button.
This allows you to purchase a server based on what you need now, all with a clear and easy upgrade path for the future.
A virtual server is much cheaper than a dedicated server and a whole lot more flexible to boot.
In the unlikely event of hardware failure, each virtual server can be quickly copied to a functioning server.
Virtual servers all use the same drivers regardless of the underlying server so hardware compatibility is never a problem.
So what are you waiting for? Check out our HyperVPS plans page.

Attempted Murder Charges Filed In Chase Case That Has Trooper In Critical Condition
The States Attorneys for both Lincoln and Minnehaha Counties have filed numerous charges against 25-year old Rachel Coleman of Sioux Falls in the wake of a police chase in the early morning hours Wednesday.
Coleman allegedly ran over State Trooper Andrew Steen who had surgery Thursday to relieve pressure on his brain.
Coleman is being charged with: first degree attempted murder, aggravated assault on law enforcement, vehicular battery, DWI, felony eluding and felony hit and run.
Law enforcement say Coleman allegedly ran over Steen near the strip mall at 57th & Western. Officers shot Coleman before she crashed her car near 47th & Western. There have been no updates on Coleman's medical condition.
The crimes were committed in both counties, but she will be charged in Lincoln County.

Only two college football teams in the last 40 years went wire-to-wire atop the national polls. Virginia Tech under Frank Beamer played them both.
The Miami Hurricanes' most recent national champions produced 38 NFL draft choices, 17 first-rounders. Beamer's Hokies darn near beat them.
Miami's first unbeaten team, coached by Jimmy Johnson in 1987, included Michael Irvin, Bennie and Brian Blades, Steve Walsh, Melvin Bratton and Daniel Stubbs. And yes, Virginia Tech was among their conquests.
Yet this week Beamer proclaims the Alabama squad his Hokies face in Saturday's season-opener the best he's ever faced.
If he's right and/or sincere, Tech has NO shot Saturday in...

Way back in November, Seattle hip-hop duo Blue Scholars released their digital-only EP, Joe Metro (thanks for the heads up, Zac!). Last week, I finally got around to listening to the title track.
Love, love, love! This is a good song, and I'm not just saying that because it's about the bus. Seattle OG Emcee Geologic is an excellent storyteller. He describes a ride on the 48 (aka forty-late), the perfect bus for a "Posse on Broadway"-style tour of the city, in a way that truly captures the flavor of the route.
Take six quarters out of the pocket
Drop it in the box
Hop the 48, off to pay homage
It stops often, I jot my observations, watchin'
Citizens walkin' off of the Joe Metropolitan
Proletariats and wayward sons
With old Filipino men speakin' in they native tongue
And the day is just begun
A brother in Girbauds in the back all alone
Marinatin' in a pair of half-broken headphones
Muddled in rhymes
Same time begin to pen mine
He also reminds us of the good reasons to ride. A sample:
And I ponder if it's time to save up and get a car
And pay for the gas that we're takin' from the war
I'd miss all the colorful faces
The spaces and places I've embraced…
Check the video if you're of a mind. There's a good shot of the 43 in the beginning, and lots of good shots of my (I mean our) city.
Did I mention that the beat is funky? Guess what's going to be playing on the Schmipod (Bus Chick style: on repeat) for the entire month of February?

This month I've been so busy that I wasn't able to create a full reveal, but I am still playing with the current Scraps of Darkness kit and here is one more page from the February Victoriana kit.
This is my daughter Tyler and my other daughter, Rylee, actually took this photo of her. I loved it, so I decided to scrap it. I had a lot of fun with this layout.
TIP: Ok if you ever get a package in the mail that has these crimped up pieces of paper then KEEP SOME!! For reals.. check out how cute they look in the floral bunch!!
TIP: If your scrappy space is super cold, do not use liquid pearls LOL!! They never rounded and ended up drying like little nipples. :(
Both the Skeleton Clock Face and the Large Gear (Cog) are Dusty Attic chippies!!
Thanks for stopping by and God Bless!!

Flights of Angels Among Us
Please join Intrepid Shakespeare on Sunday, Sept. 16, 12:30 pm in the courtyard outside of the theatre for an afternoon of family events to benefit Angels Foster Family Network.
It's a fairly quiet Tuesday morning at Angels Foster Family Network. Rows of chairs line the main room, remnants of the orientation for new families which was held last night. Outside this room, a calming waterfall provides a lush backdrop to the often stressful work done within these walls. "We see it all," says Rachel Zahn, Associate Director. "We see the beautiful and the challenging."
Founded in 1999, Angels has been the go-to "baby experts" for the foster care system in San Diego. Sanctioned by the state, this organization finds foster families for babies from the age of newborn to three years. "This is a critical time, developmentally," says Rachel, a former pediatrician. "If babies don't form that connective human bond immediately, they will never learn how to have normal human relationships in the future. You can't get that time back."
Understanding this, the staff at Angels thoroughly vets each of their foster families (a psychological profile is required here – not typical fare in the traditional foster system) and tasks them with forming these loving and bonding connections with the children they receive into their care. 50% of the families end up adopting their foster babies. All of them agree that they will be a family to the child until a permanent situation is decided.
Because the circumstances around the need for newborn foster care can be dramatic, Angels' families also undergo intensive training sessions, which include how to handle special health needs. "For instance," says Rachel, "they have to understand what it means to take home a baby addicted to heroin."
Rachel and the staff at Angels are constantly amazed by the families who foster with them. "We ask them to open their hearts to these challenges, for an uncertain amount of time and an uncertain future for the baby." Uncertain, because the future of the child is often decided by the court system and reunification with the birth parents is always a possibility, no matter how challenging that situation may be.
Angels Foster Family Network was founded by Cathy Richman, who had volunteered as an court-appointed advocate for children in the foster care system. "She was appalled by what she saw," says Rachel. "She said, 'We have to do this better.'" Since its inception, Angels has successfully placed 550 babies. The gleeful faces of the adopted provide the main decor in the Angels' offices.
Rachel has been working at Angels for two years and believes that everything she has studied and experienced in her past careers have led her to this organization. Inspired by Cathy and a neighbor who was an "Angels dad," the moment she understood the work being done at Angels, she knew she had to be a part of it. And as a retired pediatrician, she knows babies.
"When they first comes to us at Angels, they have usually shut down emotionally," she explains. "There are no smiles, no eye contact – they look a little sickly. After they are placed with an Angels family, we see them a week later and the difference is amazing. They are giggling, laughing – they are like different babies."
In addition to Cathy and Rachel, there are five social workers on staff who are on call for their families 24/7. Each social worker only handles up to 15 families, versus the traditional system where social workers have 60-80 cases each.
All in all, it is a system that works. With sister organizations in Santa Barbara and Oklahoma City, Angels is trying to export their model, spreading the 0-3 word as quickly as possible. "We are transforming the face of foster care," says Rachel.
Families interested fostering children can find information on the Angels' website, www.angelsfoster.org. Volunteers in other capacities are also welcome, especially as the organization is looking forward to its first fundraising gala, An Evening with Angels, featuring Antwone Fisher. Additionally, they will always accept donations for the "baby starter kits" they provide to new foster families, which include everything from diapers to clothes to toys and formula.
By supporting this marvelous organization in some capacity, maybe we can say the same thing to ourselves that Rachel Zahn does at the end of each day: "What I did today was so important."

I am glad to announce the first bugfix release for Muon Suite 1.2. The Muon Suite is a set of package management utilities for Debian-based Linux distributions built on KDE technologies.
The 1.2.1 release fixes package duplication on MultiArch-enabled systems with APT 0.8.16+, as well as fixes a handful of other bugs.
I was unexpectedly busy today, so I do not have packages for Kubuntu 11.04 ready yet. I'll get on those tomorrow, though. When they are ready, they'll be in the usual PPA. Muon 1.2.1 has been uploaded to the development version of Kubuntu 11.10, however.
Further technical information about the release, including source tarball downloads, can be found at the project pages here and here.

AT&T Red River Showdown
Cotton Bowl | State Fair of Texas | Dallas
The Oklahoma-Texas game, played each season at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas, a location approximately halfway between the two campuses, is one of the country's most spectacular sporting events.
Staged during the State Fair of Texas, the contest is witnessed by a crowd perfectly defined by color � half crimson, half burnt orange � in an atmosphere that is arguably more unique than that found at any other game. This rivalry is one that marks time and gives players and fans alike experiences for a lifetime.

In June 2014, the City of Dallas announced that the Cotton Bowl would remain the site of the Red River Showdown through 2025.
"Generations of Sooners and Longhorns will proudly attest that the Red River Showdown is played amidst the most unique atmosphere in all of college football. Two of football's greatest programs and their legions of passionate fans are diametrically situated in the historic Cotton Bowl, surrounded by revelry of the State Fair of Texas.
"The University of Oklahoma is thrilled about preserving the rich tradition of this game in the City of Dallas. While subject to any necessary final approval by the board of regents from universities, we are looking forward more future student-athletes and fans enjoying the spectacle of this renowned football rivalry for many years to come." � OU Vice President for Intercollegiate Athletics, Joe Castiglione
The Tunnel Experience
"From the top of The Tunnel that leads into the floor of the Cotton Bowl it looks like no big deal. All you can see is end zone. Then you start running and the world explodes around you. Your eardrums are pounded by the screams of 75,587 people and the blasts of the modified 12-gauge shotguns that the OU Ruf/Nek spirit group carries...
"You feel the world shake and start to understand why every Longhorn or Sooner who has taken these steps before you can never seem to find the exact words necessary to convey what has just happened.
"You've just run down the tunnel at the OU-Texas game -- generally regarded as one of the greatest moments a college football player can experience." � Mark Wangrin, ESPN.com

Brian Ward and I got together Friday night to record Episode 19 of the Hinderaker-Ward Experience, ably produced by Ricochet's Scott Immergut and augmented by a Little Sumpin'. We talked about the issues of the day, including the latest in the GOP race–Brian is excited about Newt's rise, I am not–the latest hilarity from the Occupiers, acerbic commentary on the much-hyped patriotic (i.e., pro-higher taxes) millionaires, and a prescient preview of the Supercommittee. As well as, of course, the Loon of the Week and This Week In Gatekeeping. It was a fun show:
You can listen to the podcast by playing it right here, or you can go to Ricochet to download or subscribe to the podcast in various ways, or you can hit the subscribe button in the graphic above to subscribe on iTunes or elsewhere.

Wicked PreReading Q#1: Do you like fantasy?
I love reading fantasy. I wish it was considered a "serious" catagory, because it raises all sorts of questions that pertain to being a person while removing it from reality.
I read fantasy almost exclusively. Real life is always there waiting with bad news, dishes, laundry etc. so getting out of reality in fantasy is relaxing
I adore fantasy - probably my favourite genre. I like the escapism of a fantasy setting and it allows the imagination to run wild. If it is a good fantasy I get totally immersed in the world.
I've also always loved fantasy, especially when I was younger I really hated to read anything else, although there wasn't nearly the selection there is now, so it was always hard to find something.
I agree with the sentiment that we already live in the real world, so reading about somewhere else is usually preferable. It does often make it easier to deal with concepts that can be too difficult or touchy in a more realistic setting. Series like Narnia by CS Lewis and His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman and great examples of people taking very complex, philosophical ideas and exploring them in a new setting. And they seem so much more real than what a lot of more realistic, religious fiction ever accomplishes...
Are we calling "fantasy" the same as "fiction"? Maybe I need clarification on it's definition. I just read whatever sounds appealing! But I do think if it makes you start to think outside the norm, then that enhances your brain - you know, using your imagination for creativity purposes? (I feel like that made no sense at all!)
To me, the term "fantasy fiction" implies that there is some fundamental part of the narrative that could not exist in the world as we know it - vampires, dragons, talking lions, magic, a whole different world. As opposed to fiction which could have happened in our world but didn't. The boundaries between science fiction and fantasy are a little harder to define and I like both so I don't bother to try and separate them LOL
Haven't read much fantasy. Love science fiction though.
I love fantasy and having a vivid imagination. While I love reading almost anything, any type of fantasy world is what I prefer because it's nice to escape reality once in a while.
Here in Brazil some people use the term "fantastic literature" for all the generes that needs suspension of disbelief: Fairy tales, high fantasy, other world stories, magic/fantastic creatures stories, steampunk, cyberpunk and sci-fi. It´s confuse, however, because the same term is used by traditional academy people to talk about a specific kind of Latin American literature (for example the writings from Gabriel Garcia Marques).
Well, I like to read to fantasy stories. Never stopped to read this kind of book. It was never my only choice, but in some moments is my first choice. I´ve been reading a lot of fantasy in the past years
I've always been a lover of fantasy, I read it almost exclusively now - not on purpose, but that's just what I tend to reach for.
Marisa, I like that you brought up the themes in Chronicles of Narnia and the His Dark Materials trilogy. I read both as a kid and while I remember Narnia being a super fun read it didn't have much of an effect on my faith at that age. A few years later I read Dark Materials and it actually strengthened my conviction of my faith. Not exactly what Phillip Pullman was going for. But I thought at the time - the church in that book is awful, I'm so glad to have mine!
Anyway, thanks for letting me go on that tangent. I haven't read a book with the purpose of analyzing it for a long time, I'm looking forward to it!
I read both as a kid and while I remember Narnia being a super fun read it didn't have much of an effect on my faith at that age. A few years later I read Dark Materials and it actually strengthened my conviction of my faith. Not exactly what Phillip Pullman was going for. smiley But I thought at the time - the church in that book is awful, I'm so glad to have mine!
There are lots of theorical authors that say exacly this - That reading good books that don´t match your faith isn´t dangerous to the faith; on the opposite, they reinforce them.
I read His Dark Materials as an adult and loved it. I liked almost everything in this series. But I could´t pass book 3 on Narnia... It was to boring for the moment I was. Maybe I´ll try again it some day in the future, maybe not.
I love reading fantasy novels and epic, black and grungy ones are my favourite at the moment.
Fantasy is my favourite genre. I do enjoy others too, but if I need an escape from reality, it's the best way to go! I've lways loved tales of adventure in far-off lands
Honestly it depends on the book and the writing. I read the Narnia series, and although I enjoyed the story, I didn't like the writing and almost didn't finish. Same with Lord of the Rings. I love the story, but the writing was a little difficult to get through. I must admit I skipped quite a few pages. It's a similar style to Narnia so that makes sense to me. Harry Potter on the other hand, I absolutely love the writing (and the story). So I guess for me, the answer would be it depends, lol.
noooo, don't hate on Tolkien!!!
I enjoy fantasy when it's not predictable. Some fantasy, like some of the old Harlequin romances can be very predictable. I love David Eddings, the old DragonLance series' Kevin Hearne, Michael Stackpole, R. A. Salvatore, Terry Pratchett, etc.
I quite fancy my favorite books are those involving stories and elves and dystopian futures.
Tolkien is my favorite writer on this theme

April 19, 2005
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - Sophomore Brandon Leonard advanced home on a wild pitch in the 10th inning with two outs to lead No. 24 Wheaton (21-6, 10-1) to a 4-3 victory and the New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) regular season championship. MIT (17-8, 6-3) scored two runs in the bottom of the eighth to force the extra frame before dropping its second one-run game this month against the Lyons.
With the league's two most explosive offenses colliding, it seemed ironic that Tuesday's afternoon tilt blossomed into a pitcher's duel. Senior Matt Ponte got the call for Wheaton and pitched three hitless innings to open the game.
Freshman Jay Turner started for MIT, and although the rookie yielded two runs in the first two innings, the Holliston, Mass., native displayed good command.
A sacrifice fly resulted in Wheaton's first two tally's; the first coming after a bloop double by Leonard dropped over the first baseman's head, while a two-base error in right field led to the Lyons second score.
The Engineers loaded the bases with three straight singles in the fourth, but a great defensive play by Scott Guillerault stopped the rally dead in its tracks. The Wheaton rookie made an unassisted play at the hot corner on a sharply hit ball, and then completed the double play with a strong throw to first.
MIT finally got on the board in the fifth when freshman Kevin Wheeler lifted an opposite field homerun over the right field fence. With the Cardinal and Gray knocking on the door, the Lyons' bats delivered their third sacrifice fly of the game in the top of the eighth to stretch their advantage back to two.
Still pitching in the bottom of the eighth, Ponte got two quick outs and looked poised to escape another inning unscathed. Ricky Tydus kept the Engineers going with a double to deep left center and Wayne Duggan reached base for the third time on an error to put runners at the corners. Back-to-back RBI singles by Kyle Zeller and Warren Bates breathed fresh life into the Tech nine, while knotting the game at three.
With both starting pitchers out after impressive outings, each team turned to its bullpen for the ninth. Senior Cliff Roscow made quick work of Wheaton in the top half of the inning, while freshman Josh Moore answered with a 1-2-3 inning of his own.
With two outs in the 10th, Leonard walked. A timely hit by Rob Cipolla moved Leonard to third with one out. During the next at bat, a 2-1 pitch got away from Tech's closer, allowing the eventual winning run to cross the plate. Moore shut the door in the bottom of the inning with three straight outs to pick up the win.

I've been thinking of the gardens, probably because I haven't been able to be in them much. Maureen has been doing the Lion's share of the work, tho I did help with the weeding. The bermuda and weeds had gotten out of hand and we had to resort to a herbicide (for the first time and just in the walkways) and a lot of back-breaking work to clean the beds. It is now a much better looking garden. Sorry no pictures at this time, and no 'before' pics because it was just plain depressing there for awhile and we both avoided even going over there....which just compounded the problem. Benign neglect makes for much weeds.
Another project has been the patch of grass that will be a fruit tree bed in the future. We had removed all of our grass in our yard to put in vegetable gardens. This was a dirt area the dogs liked to lay in and play in, so we thought to make it a bit more presentable for us and comfortable for them.
You can see by the progression of the pictures what happened. I don't have pictures of the final result. But between dog urine and thinking sod was a chew toy, you can guess the result. We even sodded it again for Betty's memorial and it looks worse than ever. Lesson learned and onto Plan C.
After last year's turkey harvest, we bought a frozen bird this year. Not that we won't try that again; we just didn't plan ahead. Soup, our turkey hen, has become too big and tough to harvest, so for now she is guarding the chicken hens. We also heard that there is something in the turkey manure that is beneficial to chickens and a preventative for some disease. Still looking into that. (edited by Maureen ~ Steve is putting off harvesting 'Soup' because he has become attached to her...so her benefits to the other birds might just be rationalizations.)
That's Soup on the left. She got into the nesting box and couldn't get out...often. We eventually had to block the bottom two boxes to prevent another stuck turkey.
We had a pretty good garden harvest this fall. After a horrible tomato season last year, this year was pretty good. Maureen canned up quite a bit of tomato sauce, spaghetti sauce, catsup and Rotel. The asparagus will have it's first full harvest this year and is being anticipated with glee. The winter garden is in and growing, except for the plants that aren't. Every year we have about a 25% rate of unsuccessful plantings. By that I mean, they don't die, they just sit in a kind of suspended animation. We put them in and while most around them get bigger (aka GROW) these little buggers just sit there....not dying, but definitely not growing. Very weird. We have gardened for over 20 years and have yet to figure out what causes this or what to do about it. Our solution....plant 25% more seedlings than we will need. Problem solved.
A decision we are mulling over now is taking out the pecan tree in the back yard at our house. This tree was a sapling when we moved in. It is now over 50' tall and 14" thick at the base.Besides starting to push against our water main, it is a mess....24/7. One season it drops allergy causing "flowers" and another it's the gooey aphid sap that sticks to everything, on top of leaves that seem to multiply and drop for months. The shade is nice in the late afternoon summer, but the neighbor has an oak tree that duplicates much of the shade. That same shade though limits what can be grown in that section of the garden. The nuts are wonderful; but a pain to extract from the shells. The short story is we are considering taking it out. The wood would be used for BBQ and a special woodworking project, but will be difficult to cut down because of the tight quarters. Always a new adventure on the horizon.

Acer has announced a 7-inch budget tablet next year, as the PC maker looks to expand its reach in the handheld market.
The tablet, which has launched in India but sadly doesn't have much in the way of other worldwide release dates, features Android Jelly Bean at its heart, a Mediatek dual-core 1.2GHz processor and a 1024 x 600 resolution display.
Going head to head with the likes of the Google Nexus 7 and Amazon Kindle Fire HD, Acer seems to be planning on stealing the show by offering the Iconia B1 for just £99 (around $60/AU$95).
A good, old fashioned cheap-off
Other fun time specs include 8GB of internal memory with a microSD expansion slot, 512MB of RAM and a 2710mAh, with a weight of 320g.
We have been told that the Iconia B1 will be coming to Europe later this month, and will cost €119 (around £99 / $155 / AUS$150) which is amazingly cheap for a tablet that brings the latest version of Google, despite not having much grunt to power it with.
Acer isn't the only company supposedly planning a ridiculously cheap tablet, with several rumours surrounding a $99 Nexus 7 also refusing to go away.
Check out our coverage of CES 2013 and our MWC 2013 preview to find out what their plans are for the 7-inch market, so stay tuned for more.

The NFL's decision to scrap an NFL Network interview promoting the movie Silver Linings Playbook has baffled the film's executive producer, who says that multiple NFL owners have seen and enjoyed the movie.
The league office decided that NFL Network could not air an interview with Bradley Cooper, who stars in the film, because the movie includes scenes depicting gambling on NFL games. Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein says he was shocked by that decision in part because multiple owners of NFL teams have attended screenings of the movie, and all of them came away loving it. Weinstein also suspects that whatever NFL executive made the decision not to air the interview probably hasn't seen the movie.
"The NFL is saying this movie is about gambling? They better see the movie," Weinstein said in an interview with Reuters. "I showed the movie to Woody Johnson, who owns the New York Jets. He loved it. And I showed it to [Giants co-owner] Steve Tisch and he loved it. We showed it to the Philadelphia Eagles ownership and guys and they loved it. So this is ridiculous. I'm pretty sure [Cowboys owner] Jerry Jones saw it too and he liked it. So I don't get this."
Although the NFL has a legitimate interest in keeping its teams, coaches, players and officials far away from anything having to do with gambling on games, the league comes across looking silly when it won't even allow an actor to be interviewed on its network if that actor has appeared in a movie in which a character bets on a game. This incident makes the NFL look small.

ODAC Champions!!
For immediate release – 5/4/2014 – #356
LC Men's Lacrosse Defeats H-SC 21-13 in Title Game behind Seven Goals from Austin Stewart
SALEM, VA – Sophomore attack Austin Stewart posted seven goals Sunday as the Lynchburg College men's lacrosse team defeated Hampden-Sydney 21-13 in the finals of the 2014 Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC) Championship Tournament. It is the fifth ODAC title in program history and the second in the last three seasons (2012).
H-SC got on the board first, but the Hornets scored the next five goals. Following the Tiger goal, Harrison Brennan won the faceoff and took the groundball in for a quick tally to even the score. Campbell Armstrong gave LC the lead from David Alyanakian at 12:44. Alyanakian scored himself from Aaron Murphy and the Hornets had back-to-back goals from Austin Stewart and Murphy to go ahead 5-1 midway through the first quarter. H-SC's Fleet Jernigan cut the edge to three after a timeout, but Murphy found the back of the net to record his fourth point of the quarter, and the period ended with a 6-2 LC lead.
Stewart opened the second with an unassisted goal at 13:20 after LC killed a man-down situation. Dane Angell followed with a pair of unassisted goals to push the score to 9-2. The Tigers got back into it, posting the next three goals to climb back to 9-5, and the teams traded scores en route to an 11-7 LC halftime advantage.
Lynchburg put the game away with five-straight goals to open the third quarter. Armstrong had two in the 5-0 run, while Alyanakian, Murphy and Stewart each had one to give LC a 16-7 lead. Each squad added a late goal to make the score 17-8 after three periods.
Angell netted his third tally and Stewart scored his sixth goal of the game to make the score 19-8 at the 12-minute mark. H-SC rattled off the next three goals to climb back to 19-12, but could get no closer.
Stewart finished with seven goals and one assist, and Murphy tallied three goals and four assists. Angell and Armstrong each had hat tricks, while Alyanakian had two goals and two assists. Todd Galvin recorded a goal and an assist and Rob Arnold had two helpers. Brennan scooped eight groundballs, while Chris Hower collected six ground balls and caused two turnovers.
Abbot Wallenborn paced the Tigers with five goals, and Armstrong and Duncan Morris each had hat tricks. Jake Koferl won 15 of his 24 face-off opportunities and corralled 10 ground balls.
Lynchburg (16-4) earns the conference's automatic bid to the 2014 NCAA Division III Championship Tournament. The selection show is slated for this evening at 10 p.m. and can be viewed at: http://www.ncaa.com/sports/lacrosse-men/d3. Hampden-Sydney ends the season with an 10-8 record.
Five Hornets were honored on the All-Tournament Team: Stewart, Murphy, Angell, Andrew Fawkes and Jon Gill.

SAN DIEGO -- Tim Clark would have been easy to miss among dozens of PGA Tour players who poured out of a hotel ballroom after a two-hour meeting on the proposed ban of the stroke used for long putters – except he was the only guy with a suitcase.
Clark didn't bring golf clubs to Torrey Pines, only an overnight bag. He didn't play in the tournament, but he paid his way to San Diego just so he could be at the mandatory player meeting, the one Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson did not attend. The special guest was USGA Executive Director Mike Davis, invited to explain the proposed rule on anchoring and to take any questions.
Clark wanted to be heard.
''I didn't realize until that night he wasn't in the field,'' Lucas Glover said. ''I thought it was very courageous of him to do what he did. He flew here. He spent his own money to get here and back for something he cares about. My opinion on it doesn't matter. He spoke his mind in a respectful way. He did not lash out. He asked honest questions and stated honest opinions. And I was proud of him. The way he handled himself was brilliant.''
No one has more to lose over this ban than Clark.
He has a genetic condition that keeps him from turning his forearms and wrists inward. Clark has anchored the long putter to his chest for about as long as anyone has seen him play. Despite the physical limitations – Clark has never ranked higher than 140th in driving distance – he has won The Players Championship, Australian Open, Scottish Open and twice the South African Open.
Based on several accounts of those in the room, Clark spoke with dignity and integrity.
''I think what he did to fly in for the meeting showed a lot,'' Keegan Bradley said. ''He's got something he wants to stand up for, and that's something I admire. He presented some nice points. When he talks, people listen.''
Exactly what Clark said remains private, another show of respect by his peers.
PGA Tour Commissioner Tim Finchem is headed back to San Diego this week to meet with the USGA before its annual meeting. Finchem said the tour's objective had always been to follow the lead of the USGA and R&A for rules. He also said there might be a place for two sets of rules in golf, though perhaps not in the case of anchored strokes.
Geoff Ogilvy felt the majority of players who don't use an anchored stroke are ambivalent about the proposed rule and that ''the passion is coming from 5 percent.''
He was impressed with Clark, especially with how prepared he was.
''He's been researching this the whole offseason,'' Ogilvy said. ''He basically put his position out there, and probably positions that Mike hadn't thought about or didn't acknowledge as importantly as Tim saw them.
''What Tim did achieve ... whether he had any effect on the USGA position, a big portion of the ambivalent people were on Tim's side when they walked out of the room.''

Stifel analyst Jordan Rohan put out a note this morning reducing estimates for Yahoo's financials in the third quarter "and beyond."
The main reason?
Yahoo's search share is tanking at an alarming rate.
That's a problem because search is a pure profit center for Yahoo. Rohan decreased his Q3 revenue projection for Yahoo $80 million and his EBITDA projection $70 million.
Here's a chart based on ComScore data of Yahoo's core search "growth":
Yahoo outsources search tech and search monetization, and Yahoo.com isn't growing much at all.
You might think that this kind of atrophy is normal for a company in that position. You'd be wrong.
Look at AOL, which outsources search to Google:
And look at Ask, which also uses Google:
The silver lining for Yahoo, YHOO owners, and Mayer is this: Looking at AOL and Ask reveals search growth can turn around.
That's why Mayer's new search-friendly redesign of Yahoo.com makes sense. (The search bar floats around the page with you as you scroll.)
It might help for Yahoo to switch to Google. The DoJ barred Yahoo from doing that back in 2009, but it's obviously a different era now.

SPARTANBURG, S.C. – Pro Bowl defensive end Greg Hardy, who exercised his right to a jury trial after he was recently convicted by a district judge in North Carolina of assaulting an ex-girlfriend, continues to practice with the Carolina Panthers and prepare for the season.
How the NFL deals with domestic abuse has been a hot topic the past week after Commissioner Roger Goodell announced a two-game suspension for Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice, who allegedly assaulted a woman who is the now his wife. On Sunday, Hardy meet with the news media at the Panthers' Woffod College training camp.
Before Hardy took questions, the Panthers' media relations department laid down restrictions that he would not address the ongoing legal case or questions peripheral to it. It was football questions only. Hardy struck to that, repeatedly.
"I'm excited to be in camp, glad to be back in the football season," said the fifth-year pro who led the Panthers with 15 sacks last season.
Has he talked to teammates to clear the air?
"Can't answer that question," he said.
Has he been a distraction to the team?
"I hate that I have distracted my team, but other than that I really can't answer that question," he said.
Did he apologize to teammates?
"Can't answer that question," he said. "It's a team thing. We're going to keep it inside."
Last year, Hardy tossed out that he wanted 58 sacks. He got more talkative when asked about that.
"I like that number still. I feel like it was a good solid, whole number, and I'm going to shoot for it again," said Hardy. "And I want to say this time I'm 'shooting' for it, so everybody knows. I didn't say I was going to get 58. But I am going to shoot for 58."
On July 15, a district judge in Mecklenburg County convicted Hardy in a non-jury trial on charges stemming from an alleged assault on his ex-girlfriend, Nicole Holder, last May at his residence. Judge Becky Thorne Tin found Hardy guilty of assault on a female and communicating threats. She sentenced him to 60 days in prison that was suspended and 18 months of probation.
Hardy appealed the decision, and under North Carolina law he is entitled to a jury trial that may not begin until after the NFL season.
According to the Charlotte Observer, Holder told the judge during the non-jury trial that she sustained bruises on her back when Hardy threw her on a futon covered with guns. And Hardy testified that she swung at him, threatened to kill herself and was hurt when she threw herself into the bathtub.
"Obviously, what's happened with Greg is very concerning and very disappointing. These are very serious allegations," general manager Dave Gettleman said last week.
"At the same time, we also respect the fact that Greg has appealed the decision and is entitled to a jury trial. … We have been in touch with the league and we're in the position that they have a personal conduct policy, which we are part of. And at the same time, we have to respect the legal process."
In his session with the new media, Hardy answer only football -- and contractual -- questions.
He is playing this season under the Panthers' franchise tag, which will pay him $13.1 million as a defensive end. "Awesome, I get to stay another year, hang out with my guys, play some football," he said.
Yes, he thinks the Carolina defense can improve after ranking No. 2 last season in fewest yards and points allowed.
"Yeah, most definitely," he said. "We jelled this offseason. We're going to continue to jell during camp and hopefully the heat and just the stress … on the new guys and everything will bring them up speed and we'll all take it to another level and advance on what we did last year."
How have the last months been for him?
"I can't really answer questions like that," he said.
His thoughts about focusing on football? Does that make it better for him?
"Can't answer that question," he said.
Gettleman indicated the team will wait for the league to decide whether Hardy merit's suspension under the league's personal conduct policy.
"What I can say, and you can see it with the Ray Rice decision, is that it appears the league is going to let the entire process play out," said Gettleman.
What about the Panthers' organization?
"Obviously, everybody has to deal with this. … It's not an easy situation," said Gettleman. "But it's in the courts and we have to respect that process."
Goodell suspended Rice for two games in connection with an alleged February assault at a New Jersey casino on the woman who is now his wife, the former Janay Palmer.
In May, it was announced Rice would enter a program for first-time offenders that would clear his record of a criminal charge provided he met certain conditions, including participation in family counseling. Rice had been facing a charge of third-degree aggravated.

Ashley Nieto was 14 when Ronald Nieto was convicted of lewd acts with a child. Twelve years later, they're married with one child and another one on the way. Who says those stories don't end happily ever after?
Ashley is coach of the Palm Desert (Calif.) girls softball team, and naturally asked her husband to help her out. After all, he's got experience with high school girls. Said Ashley:
I have been coaching for 6 years, it's my program, he has had nothing to do with it."
When he started volunteering, the school's AD told them he had to stay out in left field, far away from the team. But he's gradually crept in, sitting in the dugout and keeping score. That was the final straw. Ashley's been fired as coach, and Ronald has been charged with three misdemeanors related to his involvement with the team.
The lesson here: be aware of who's looking after your teenagers, even if it's the coach's husband. Maybe especially if it's the coach's husband.
