GREENWOOD, S.C. - A day after holding 2nd-ranked Lander University to its lowest run total in a game this season, the Georgia Southwestern baseball team held the Bearcats to their second-lowest total in a 3-2 win to open a doubleheader on Saturday at Dolny Stadium. Lander defeated GSW in the nightcap, 13-3.
The Hurricanes record stands at 12-22, 4-14 in the Peach Belt Conference. Lander has an overall record of 27-6 and a mark of 17-4 in the PBC.
LU has had a potent offense this spring, scoring double-digit runs in more than half of its games (17 times in 33 opportunities).
Southwestern returns to the friendly confines of Hurricane Stadium to host Auburn Montgomery on Wednesday at 5 p.m.
It was three runs on three sacrifice flies for the Hurricanes in Saturday's opener.
Michel Coffey drove home GSW's first run of the day in the third inning. After LU tied the game, Kyle Nobles brought home Randall Sheffield with a fly to center field in the sixth. Les Cromer pushed across the deciding run in the ninth with a fly ball to left field that scored Nobles.
Hurricanes starting pitcher Justin Lott did not factor into the decision, but turned in a strong performance going 5 2/3 innings and allowing two runs on six hits. Lott walked one and struck out six. Drew Cataldo (1-1) threw 2 2/3 innings of scoreless relief before making way for Bray Bishop (sv 2) to collect the final two outs.
Josh Sanders was 2-for-3 to lead GSW batters.
Patrick Grady and Jacob Tisdale had two hits apiece for Lander.
All 16 runs in the second game of the afternoon were scored by the end of the third inning.
GSW took an early 3-0 lead after scoring a run in the first inning and two in the second. Sheffield, Kevin Manos and John Duran produced RBI hits during that stretch.
Lander held a lead for the first time in the afternoon in the third and added what would prove to be plenty of insurance as the Bearcats pushed across 13 runs in the frame behind 10 hits and a pair of GSW errors.
Sheffield and Chase Young turned in multi-hit games for the Hurricanes. Sheffield was 2-for-5 and Young went 2-for-3 with a walk.
Dylan Folds was solid in relief over the final five innings, holding LU scoreless with only two hits while walking two and striking out a pair. Matt Suggs started the game for the Hurricanes and lasted only 2 1/3 innings. Of the 10 runs Suggs was charged with, only three were earned. Ryan Mosley pitched two-thirds of an inning as well.
LU starter Chess Malone (7-1) threw seven innings, allowed all three runs - two earned - and eight hits while walking one and striking out six. Johnny Walker and Jeremy Jansen each pitched an inning of scoreless relief.

Here, you can watch on the internet. Hurry! They're up to the 6th Amendment.
UPDATE: The 10th Amendment won a spatter of applause.
UPDATE 2: John Lewis read the 13th Amendment – abolishing slavery — and that got a big round of applause. Section 1 of the 14th Amendment — read by Democrat Mel Watt — also got some healthy applause.
UPDATE 3: Silence at the 17th Amendment.
UPDATE 4: The word "sex" is in the Constitution.
UPDATE 5: You have one sentence to read: How can you mispronounce one of the words? Compulsatory, etc. etc.
UPDATE 6: Applause... either for the document as a whole, now completely read, or for the idea that they shouldn't give themselves a raise, which was the last thing read.
UPDATE 7: I missed the birther outburst. Did it really happen?
Rep. Jim Himes (D-Conn.) tweeted from the House floor that a "birther" had interrupted the Constitution reading that's been taking place.Yes, it happened...
... from the gallery. It wasn't another Joe Wilson "You lie"-type situation.
UPDATE 8: The heckler — who has been arrested — yelled "Except Obama, except Obama. Help us Jesus." Jesus? Why drag in Jesus?

We had an entire weekend off. In the US, we would have called it a "golden weekend."
But due to various circumstances, I didn't sleep enough, ate way too much and no doubt got on SR's nerves. Somehow the Lorax still likes me.
Anyway, sometimes I think about this golden, glowing person that lives inside of me. Not a person with jaundice from obstructive liver disease. But a person who is postive, loving, patient, forgiving and perhaps funny. I don't know why, but I just can't be that person.
It seems now that every moment, I am either at work, in way above my head with a language I've spoken for less than 6 months caring for patients with life-threatening and/or complicated problems OR I've got the Lorax attached to me crying or demanding attention.
But hey, I got quite a lot of positive feedback today from the attending doctor on the floor I work on. And I made some diagnoses today that I'm proud of. I have read what people have written about me on forums... how they would never come to me as a doctor. And, let me tell you, it was not taken lightly by me. But I would never be a good doctor if I weren't constantly recognizing my weaknesses and improving on them the best I can.
And the same rule applies to life.
Hey and today was a beautiful day. And what a run, with a view of the whole town from a ridge I've never been to. I wish I had a picture.
I do have another picture, though.

New Weapon in Fight Against 'Superbugs'
Some harmful bacteria are increasingly resistant to treatment with antibiotics. A discovery might be able to help the antibiotics treat the disease.
A soil sample from a national park in eastern Canada has produced a compound that appears to reverse antibiotic resistance in dangerous bacteria.
Scientists at McMaster University in Ontario discovered that the compound almost instantly turned off a gene in several harmful bacteria that makes them highly resistant to treatment with a class of antibiotics used to fight so-called superbug infections. The compound, called aspergillomarasmine A, or AMA, was extracted from a common fungus found in soil and mold....

Worth proves his in Hens win
Raul Reyes' first Triple-A home run gave the Herd a two-run lead, but Danny Worth responded in the bottom of the sixth with a grand slam gave the Toledo a 7-6 win to open a four-game series in Toledo.
Chris Schwinden, who took the loss, left with the game tied but the bases loaded and one out for reliever Gustavo Chacin.
Schwinden allowed six earned runs on five hits with four strikeouts and a walk.
Chacin retired Jeff Salazar but surrendered the slam to Worth with two outs in the inning.
Reyes, 24, broke a 3-3 tie with his two-run shot in his seventh game with Buffalo.
Buffalo's offense struck early against Fu-Te Ni with three runs in the first on Josh Satin's RBI single and Jesus Feliciano's two-run double.
However Toledo evened the score in the bottom of the second with a Scott Thorman double, Argenis Diaz RBI single and a two-run home run by Max St. Pierre off of Schwinden.
Jordany Valdespin, who went 2-for-5, doubled for the third consecutive game.
Satin picked up his second RBI on the night and 15th as a Bison on a single in the seventh, scoring Luis Hernandez from third to cut the deficit to one.
Enrique Gonzalez retired Valdespin, Luis Hernandez and Zach Lutz with two strikeouts in a perfect ninth for his 11th save.
Game Notes: With 366 hits, Jesus Feliciano trails Bill Selby by just 12 for the modern-era career Bisons record… Five days ago, Schwinden and Ni dueled to no decisions before Valentino Pascucci's 11th-inning walk-off homer… The Herd drops to 3-2 on the season series with Toledo.

New York, August 1, 2011--Police in Bangladesh should either charge or release a news editor arrested Sunday, whose detention may be linked to his writing on government corruption, the Committee to Protect Journalists said today.
Police in plainclothes arrested Ekramul Haq, founder and editor of the Bengali-language Sheershanews Web site and Sheersha Kagoj weekly, in his home in the capital, Dhaka, on Sunday morning, according to local and international news reports. Police told journalists that a businessman had accused the editor of trying to extort 2 million taka (US$26,800) from him for suppressing a negative news report, the reports said.
Sheershanews said the arrest was part of a harassment campaign in retaliation for Haq's reporting on government corruption, according to local news reports. The government cancelled media accreditation for the outlets' 10 journalists, including Haq, two weeks ago, according to Agence France-Presse. Government spokesman Harunur Rashid told AFP that the outlets "violated all norms of journalism" and published "character assassinations of ministers and officials."
"We are deeply skeptical about the arrest of Ekramul Haq so soon after the government cancelled his accreditation," said Bob Dietz, CPJ Asia program coordinator. "Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's government has a record of not tolerating criticism from the media."
Haq launched Sheershanews as a news Web site two years ago, according to local news reports. His weekly has recently accused businessmen with government connections and two ministers of corruption, according to AFP.

Short version: Terminator Salvation is great for the don't-expect-much-except-action-out-of-a-summer-movie crowd, not so great if you're looking for a worthy successor to the first two films.
Screen Rant reviews Terminator Salvation
For the record, I am not a McG hater, nor am I holding Christian Bale's set meltdown against him. I realize that McG will be forever haunted by the fact he directed Charlies Angels - but I had really high hopes for Terminator Salvation... I wanted it to be great.
Unfortunately, it isn't.
Why did I think that this long awaited addition to the Terminator movie franchise had even a snowball's chance of being awesome? Because I had the sense that McG wanted to prove he could do it. While many people think that his film We Are Marshall isn't all that great, I really enjoyed it and it demonstrated to me that he could actually do a film with characters you could care about.
But sadly, that's exactly what's missing from Terminator Salvation.
The film opens in 2003 with Marcus Wright (Sam Worthington) in a prison cell on death row, hours before his execution. He's visited by a scientist who has cancer (Helena Bonham Carter) and wants him to donate his body to science. She seems desperate to get him to sign, and he's not very cordial to her despite her situation and his.
The first problems in the film surface right at the start - why is she so desperate for him in particular to donate his body? Don't scores of people have organ donation cards in their wallets? And then there's his mysterious background - he's responsible for the death of his brother and two police officers... neither of these is ever explained in the film (nor in the prequel novel for that matter, which I did read).
From there the film jumps to some serious actiony goodness in 2018. I won't give anything away other than to say we get to see Christian Bale as John Connor almost immediately and he's involved on a mission that does not end up going very well. At all. Very satisfying first look at the future including some fantastic action and cool visuals/camera angles.
The upshot is that the resistance (not led at this point by Connor) has found a way to defeat Skynet. Connor volunteers to test it on a small scale before the big move against Skynet central. However that plot line becomes secondary to the story of Marcus Wright and his involvement with a young Kyle Reese (Anton Yelchin). For the non-fans out there, Reese is the man who was sent back in time to save Sarah Connor and is the father of John Connor. At the point this film takes place that hasn't happened yet (does your head hurt yet?).
Marcus doesn't seem to have aged at all although 15 years have passed, and there is a mystery surrounding him. He runs into Kyle and the young girl he's taken under his protection and very grudgingly goes along with them since he doesn't really know what's going on - and Reese did keep him from being killed by a T-600 (that's the bigger and bulkier predecessor to the T-800, aka the Schwarzenegger Terminator).
The film eventually brings together Wright and Connor via resistance pilot Blair (Moon Bloodgood). There's an issue of trust and conflict between the two that becomes the major issue in the film.

Rays @ Jays pregame
Did our rounds in the clubhouse this mornign, checking in with a few players and their respective injuries.
Brian Wolfe isn't sure when he's going to begin throwing again after hurting his right shoulder. Manager Cito Gaston guesstimated about a week. Wolfe said all he knows is he's waiting for the swelling to go down and the pain to subside before playing catch again. No kidding. As for learning that he had no structural damage: "Those were good words to hear."
Dustin McGowan did not play catch today and he doesn't know when he's going to begin throwing again either. Jays are slowing his throwing program down. Vernon Wells thought he might DH in a Minors game today, but that didn't come to pass. Jays are also taking it really slow with his left hammy injury.
Jesse Litsch, Scott Richmond and Ricky Romero all threw in a Minors game today. Didn't get a chance to really chat with Litsch or Romero, but Richmond said it definitely felt good too get back out on a mound after being idle for so long — with Canada being bounced from the WBC and all. He logged 32 pitches in two innings.
Hey, and Howie Clark is back in camp. He signed a Minor League deal with the club in January and was available off the bench today.
Don't forget, you can follow my in-game updates at www.twitter.com/mlbastian … I'll be honest, though. I'm not feeling all that great today and I'm not sure how much twittering I'll be doing.

Nice to see the Jays beat the Rays, even if it's only spring training. Let's hope we can do it in the regular season too, the Rays always seem to give us a hard time.
I'm glad Lind is getting some time in the three hole, but he doesn't seem to be doing much there, .217 going into todays game I believe. Perhaps we'll see more of him there if Wells is out during the season.
Nice game by Brad Emaus. His strong performance last year in Dunedin A+ probably already earned him a promotion to AA.
His showing to date in spring training (.286/.375/.619) with 1 hr and 5 rbi's in 21 ab's suggests this kid is one to watch in AA this year.
Emaus was selected as the best defensive 2nd baseman in the FSL this last year and his offensive breakout, (if he continues this year in AA) will likely put him ahead of Scott Campbell as out best middle infield prospect.

Netflix has been on a roll lately. The good way.
After tumbling through 2/3 of its market value, the Los Gatos streaming company has put its awkward attempt to split itself behind it, and is once again the Wall Street darling it had been for many years.
But while that's good news for Netflix investors, the company is also focusing on its growing number of subscribers. Specifically, on how to make their lives easier. Says VP of Product Development Todd Yellin, "We had to make it brain-dead easy."
Step one? Help Netflix families. You know, the adults who have to wade through entire seasons worth of "Good Luck Charlie" and "A.N.T. Farm" just to get to the latest episode of "Hemlock Grove." Yes, it happens. Trust me. Netflix has a fix. It will roll out avatars for your screen (or iPad) that list specific shows and movies for each family member. It's not rocket science, but it could be a big time saver.
It's also debuting something called "Max." Max is kind of like a game show, where a voice and graphics walk you through movie choices ("So," it said, "Are you in the mood for talking animals, or tortured genius?"), in case you have a case of chooser's block.
Again, not the biggest change in the world, but kind of fun and interactive. And, after a year spent dealing with controversy, it's nice to know Netflix cares about the little guy, just trying to watch a little Werewolf transformation.

A. How frustrating to send your resume for an internship and never receive any response—not even an acknowledgement that it was received? Unfortunately, you're not alone. Too many Human Resources (HR) departments have been downsized recently, and the remaining employees are burdened with more work than they can manage. They often receive hundreds of resumes for one internship position, which means the numbers are too overwhelming to send rejection notices. Here's how to stimulate a response:
- Send your resume to the head of the department that is looking for an intern, as well as to the HR person. It's always easier for a resume to travel down the employment chain rather than up. If you've read about some company executive who has received an honor or achieved a specific success, you could send your resume and a cover letter noting that person's accomplishment and your desire to have an internship in such a fine organization.
- Write a cover letter with your resume, stating that you will be calling that person to find out the next step in the internship process rather than waiting for a phone call. Being proactive shows respect for a busy person and demonstrates your enthusiasm for the internship. Then proceed to make your call a few days after you send your resume.
- Ensure that your resume contains key words that relate to the internship description. If the prospective company scans resumes for key words, you want to be sure that your resume has them all. Study the wording in the requirements and internship description listed in the posting and use as many of them as possible in your resume and cover letter.
- Follow-up. Make a phone call or send an email to the HR department and the department head, asking if your resume was received. Always restate your interest in the internship. You may want to ask a professor or career center to follow-up for you, too.
- Apply for multiple internships rather than only one, giving yourself options in case the internship you really want doesn't materialize. If a company doesn't bother to respond at all, it may not be the best environment for you to do an internship.
P.S. If you've had success getting a response regarding your resume, please share your secrets. Thanks!

By Randall Kuhn, Special to CNN
Editor's note: Randall Kuhn is director of the Global Health Affairs Program at the Josef Korbel School of International Studies at the University of Denver. The views expressed are the writer's own.
As we mark its two year anniversary, it has become fashionable to dismiss the Arab Spring as a false opening at best, or a gateway to an Islamist takeover at worst. Others have argued compellingly that radical extremists represent a small minority of citizens with little legitimacy. A more fundamental concern is whether the moderate Arab majority has the political capacity and motivation to overcome special interests who seek to undermine the original vision of social justice. My research on the role of human development in the Arab Spring suggests that they do.
On measures of human development such as infant mortality, life expectancy, and schooling, the Arab nations of today look far more similar to the nations of Eastern Europe in 1989, the revolution we all hope for, than to Iran in 1979, the revolution that many fear. Since 1980, no region of the developing world saw as much progress on basic indicators of health and education than the Arab States, fueled by foreign aid, oil money, and despots looking to placate the masses. In 1970, an infant born in Egypt was more likely to die in the first year of life than in India or most of Sub-Saharan Africa; by 2005 the infant in Egypt was less than half as likely to die. Moreover, by 2009 the average Tunisian 15-year old had a better chance of seeing their 60th birthday than the average American.
Arabs born in the 1980s and 1990s are a golden generation, healthier and better educated than any that had come before, much like the baby boomer generation in the US. Like the baby boomers, Arab youth were empowered not just by their own strength, but by a collective sense that everyone around them was gaining. The image of shared prosperity and modernity was reinforced by satellite TV programs presenting aspirational, middle class lives. The expectation of prosperity was reflected in rising university enrollment, exploding internet use, and high levels of optimism about the future.
More from GPS: Arab Spring knocking on Jordan's door
Of course the bright future did not materialize. By 2010, the golden generation of Arab youth was mired in what could best be described as a transnational failure to launch, characterized in the media by high youth unemployment and growing political disillusionment. Perhaps more devastating still was the delay in marriage. By 2007, for instance, the mean age of first marriage in Libya was 34 for men and 31 for women. Age at marriage was equally high in Tunisia and rapidly rising in Egypt, even in the villages. The good news: the devastating practice of child marriage for young women was increasingly in the past. The bad news: an increasing number were unable to marry at all, a devastating fate in societies where marriage often remains the sole legitimate pathway to childbearing, sexual activity, and, for women, economic security.
While poor governance and recession bore some immediate blame for the marriage squeeze, the process began with drastically enhanced life expectations. Previous Arab generations had faced far worse economic deprivations, but had simply settled for lousy jobs (or no jobs for women) and any marriage as soon as possible. But the new generation held out the hope of a brighter future; they would not settle. Many in the golden generation instead chose an adulthood waiting for the right job and the right spouse, but eventually they stopped waiting and demanded more.
Furthermore, the golden generation has shown that they would not settle for the same old corrupt government and unjust society. Well before the Arab Spring, surveys of political attitudes indicated broad support for the abstract idea of democracy. While it is easy to say that you like democracy when you don't have it, there was also growing support for specific values like political inclusion, freedom of speech, and women's rights. In Egypt, the Arab Spring was preceded by a wave of popular protest, reflecting broad-based alliances between labor movements, liberals, Islamists, and others. While protests often addressed material conditions, the focus had shifted from simple bread and butter issues to questions of economic justice and worker's rights. Participation in protests was actually more likely among those who were educated and employed, not those who were desperate. The fact that those with much to lose from disorder were front and center in the protests again suggests that Arabs were not just fighting for bread, but for an alternative vision of the future.
If the Arab Spring was indeed strongly rooted in a positive vision of justice and inclusion, why do things look so difficult today? The easy answer would be that revolutions are messy and difficult, and that even Eastern Europe in the 1990s, with so much help from the West, had moments of disorder, racism, and Communist retrenchment. A more serious answer would be that people power does not readily translate into political power. After the euphoria of an event as powerful as the Arab Spring, people naturally tend to hope for the best and return to their personal lives. The reality is that citizens may have to return to the streets for many years to come. They must also reengage with the electoral and party-building process, building durable political coalitions that can solve pressing economic issues, bridge deep cultural divides, and represent minority interests.
Come to think of it, those are the same challenges we face in the United States.
The stronger we move economic infrastructure to the Arab world the quicker things will progress. The labor machine is...dang it, I don't know what they are doing right now. That is what disheartens me...Big business needs to know their role. They are the primary mechanism to fight poverty on the planet.
Except for Egypt and Tunisia, the so-called "Arab Spring" appears to be a dismal failure. The brutal regimes in Jordan, Yemen, Saudi Arabia and Bahrain are still very much intact while the long and bloody civil war in Syria grinds on and on thanks to both the Arab League and the NATO countries. The immediate future of the Middle East does look quite grim indeed and will be that way as long as the West interferes!
With 60-70% literacy, how is Egypt anything like Eastern Europe in the 1980s which had universal literacy? Iran has long been far more educated and developed, and look what happened. And infant mortality and all those other indicators mentioned began to deteriorate after 1989 in the communist world.
Yours is one of most sensible comments I've seen here yet. Thank you, guest.
guest, literacy is a lifetime measure that includes adults long past their school years. Under-30s in Arab states have comparable literacy and higher university attendance than Eastern Europe in 1989. Iran's educated, developed past is a fallacy based on a small elite with good PR. The numbers don't bear it out.
You are talking nonsense: Eastern Europe had univerlas literacy in 1986 and even in 1956 if you like. And it is not going back: it is hardly possible to forget how to write/read or leave your children without school education if you had one yourself. So the article is incorrect and "bending" the truth: as so many from CNN.
So you either know about Eastern Europe only from CNN, or you are trying to make Arab states look better than they are. I personally think: both.
Look up^
Most of the World population lives are, based on MONKEY-see, monkey-DO.
The Arab-springs and its on going life styles are, unconsciously copied from "The war on terrorism, 9/11".
Have we consider all the actual happening and the shadow (copy-cat), that the World experienced from the creatures of Human-being; we do wonder how its happening climaxes are.
Currently, the shadow of US, covered the entire planet Earth.
....in some compute-rs, the Nose[¤] appears under between Eyes(@-@).
...do a safety check, your own. Mirrors might work.
1) In the early Morning, you look....
2) In the After-Noon, you look...
3) In the late night, you look...
So, who are you?
shallow and facile "analysis".
none of the rights issues in egypt, for example, are being addressed, and with the moslem brotherhood firmly in power, they will not be. do not expect women's, or gay, rights in egypt anytime soon. and expect (women's) literacy, and general employment, to start dropping, as of this year's statistics.
replacing one dictator with another isn't progress, and pretending that the middle east is europe is simply stupid.
It is diiscouraging now and than
The Arab Spring can be seen as an awakening after years of autocratic governance, and the popular uprising can be compared to that of the Russian Revolution in 1917. We'll see where Russia stands in four years and where the Arab World stands in less than a century.
please reas: and the posterity will see where the Arab World stands in a century from now.
The so called 'Arab Sping' is wrongly portrayed in the West as a struggle for democracy when it is nothing more than a fight for change in those holding power. These people do not long for democracy or socialism. They want to live like their ancestors with tribal leaders dictating and providing. These Arab nations need to break down the border lines drawn by westerners in the 1940's and return to how things were 1500 years ago. In the short-term (next 50 years?) they should be allowed to continue fighting it out unitl the population is substantially reduced. Hopefully the most militant of them are dead when the dust settles and somewhat reasonable people can pick up the pieces.
Plans cooked in the election spirited environment of the Western world may not apply to the Eastern side. It is a pitty that so many people died (a huge amound of easterners with a comparably few westerns) to carry on the trend of this BLOOMING TREND. Which gave bloody red fruits.
Sorry I never thouht it was a humanistic act of the west.to reform"whatsover" It wasn't even an advance on the oil rich countries. There was no land left to be exploited in the short term.
It was not even an act to find a war footing to find a solution for the global crises.
It was just a wile act done out of the blue just to be doing something.
But it also brought about plusses that was not projected.
Just go back to your own comments of 2 years ago. This may end up to be a self test on how you are. And do form your sentences with the thought in mind.
As for me, I am retiring to the arms of nature. Called the Earth Mother, with several bountiful Mother figurnes. I'll live off the land and turn my back to the doings of the mankind. I have been doing this for the last 2 weeks but Alas! the local internet 🙂
it's all a fraud guys, 'arab spring' just means CIA, MI6, DGSE intelligence operation...Wake up. No democracy in egypt or Libya and Syria is now in ruins due to civil war. Isn't that nice, doesn't it just give you a warm feeling inside...When does the 'love bombing' of Damascus start...ahhh forget it it's the super bowl soon got to go pick up beer and make some nachos for me and the boy zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...
You disgust me.
Don't matter. The people over there are still radicals anyway.

Interactive mapping presents information, makes data more accessible, informative
Recovery.gov had an inauspicious start.
Created by the General Services Administration in early 2009, Recovery.gov was designed to show the public how federal economic stimulus money is being disbursed. However, the first iteration of the site proved to be too unfriendly for the public to derive any real benefit. Content editors couldn't update the site on their own because they had to go through a webmaster based with a contractor, causing delays on a site that had to provide real-time information.
Related stories:
10 revealing government websites
10 gov Web apps that get results
Great dot-gov Web sites 2009
So the agency contracted with systems integrator Smartronix to redesign the site — to the tune of $18 million over five years.
The result has been a well-defined site that uses interactive mapping to present information in an accessible and informative way. Its data visualization features bring dry statistics to life.
By clicking on the blue map on the home page, you can see how much of the $787 billion of stimulus funding each state has received. Drill down to an interactive map for more detailed information to find out where the money is going. If you want to find out who has received funding and the various stages of projects started with the funding, type in your ZIP code. Users also can electronically report suspected fraud.
In addition to the recipient-reported maps, gold-tinted agency reported maps display data from three sources: federal agency financial reports, the Federal Procurement Data System and USASpending.gov. A purple diversity map shows population distribution compared with the location of awards. A green unemployment map shows unemployment rates in the location of awards in a specific area.
Data from all these sources convey a snappy visualization of the effects of stimulus law awards on diversity and unemployment.
One map, designed by noted information graphics innovator Edward Tufte, lights up to display awards from Feb. 17, 2009, to Sept. 30, 2010. Tufte, professor emeritus of political science, statistics and computer science at Yale University, is an award-winning expert on visual displays and content and design, and he is a board member for Recovery.gov.
Recovery.gov pays more than lip service to the promise of open government. Private developers can access live spending data from the portal and mash it up with government and nongovernment data for better insights into the data. Smartronix worked on that feature with JackBe, a developer of mashup technology.
Recovery.gov's Developer's Center also includes user-configurable Web widgets. For instance, the State Data Summary Widget lets users post on their personal or business websites data summaries sorted by state, county, congressional district or ZIP code. The center also includes an application programming interface for direct access to grant data.
The widgets and API introduce a new level of access and opportunity for policy-makers, the public and watchdog organizations to use the information to make better-informed decisions, analyze spending patterns and investigate waste.
The initial site was built on a Drupal open-source content management system. However, the new team deployed Microsoft's SharePoint as the core platform that supports Recovery.gov. SharePoint provides an integrated suite of collaboration, content management and enterprise search capabilities.
Recovery.gov, which runs on Amazon EC2 cloud services, uses Microsoft SharePoint 2007 and the Fast ESP advanced search platform. Both take advantage of Microsoft SQL Server to manage the underlying business intelligence, analytics and reporting capabilities that help make the data on Recovery.gov more accessible to the public. Fast ESP is used for content residing on the Recovery.gov site, while Bing searches the thousands of websites of fund recipients across the Internet, allowing users to view relevant data.
SharePoint also exports content to Facebook pages and Twitter and subscribes to Really Simple Syndication feeds.
But a large part of the story is how Microsoft capabilities are being applied with open standards and interoperable architecture to work together with other components, including mashups, geospatial technology and Web services from Yahoo and Google.
"We leveraged SharePoint, largely because it is a platform that is already adopted inside agencies for intranets," said Evan Burfield, chairman and CEO of Synteractive, a consulting firm working with Smartronix, TMP Government and KPMG. "So being able to extend that capability out to public-facing Web presences makes it easier for agencies to keep the content up-to-date, lively and well governed."

CHICAGO (AP) — Chicago police say 12 people, including a 3-year-old, were injured when someone opened fire on people in a park on the city's southwest side.
Chicago Fire Department officials said the child was in critical condition. Two other victims were also in critical condition. The others were reported in serious to fair condition.
Officer Amina Greer said the shooting occurred shortly after 10 p.m. Thursday at a park in the city Back of the Yards neighborhood.
Julian Harris told the Chicago Sun-Times men fired at him from a gray sedan before turning toward Cornell Square Park and firing at people in the area. He said his 3-year-old nephew was wounded in the cheek.
Police spokesman Ron Gaines says victims are being interviewed. No one is in custody.

Preconfiguring system information.
Select one of the following options:
If you preconfigured all of the system information, the installation program does not prompt you to type any configuration information. See Chapter 2, Preconfiguring System Configuration Information (Tasks), in Solaris 10 10/09 Installation Guide: Network-Based Installations for more information.
If you did not preconfigure all the system information, the installation program prompts you for this information on several screens. Use the Checklist for Installation to help you answer the configuration questions.
Network configuration.
One configuration question asks you whether you want to enable network services for use by remote clients. The default response is "Yes, I would like to enable network services for use by remote clients."
Selecting "No" provides a more secure configuration in which Secure Shell is the only network service provided to remote clients. Selecting "Yes" enables a larger set of services as in previous Solaris releases. You can safely select "No," as any services can be enabled after installation. For further information about these options, see Planning Network Security in Solaris 10 10/09 Installation Guide: Planning for Installation and Upgrade.
The network services can be enabled after installation by using the netservices open command or by enabling individual services by using SMF commands. See Revising Security Settings After Installation in Solaris 10 10/09 Installation Guide: Planning for Installation and Upgrade.

Deluxe Hot Stone Massage Set
Every basalt lava hot massage stone is of the highest quality and is cured, hand-polished, and ready for immediate use. These smooth stones are comprised of Basalt Lava and have an amazing ability to retain temperature. There is no need for curing of the stones prior to use. A natural curing occurs though normal use. Oil is absorbed into the stone with each use , producing a darker color when the stone is dry .This set includes 50 stones. Stones sizes listed are approximate and may vary. Color of the basalt stones will vary.
50 Hand-Picked Massage Stones Set Includes:
Recommended Use for Deluxe Massage Hot Stones Set Of 50:
This was the Best Buy. I love my stone set so much, I use stones throughout all of my massages. I highly recommend this set. The stones are all the perfect size.
The heater is very nice and heats well and evenly. The stones are not the best quality. One of mine came with a crack and they are not all nice rich black stones. It seems that the black ones are very smooth and hold the oil and the others (maybe 10) are gray and not as smooth and do not hold oil, they seem very dry compared to the others. The shapes also vary and a few are very uneven in shape. The strainer they give you is not very good at getting the stones out, especially without making a lot of noise. I bought a set of tongs which are much better. The chakra stone set is not worth the extra $20, the stones are very small and oddly shaped. You can buy them elsewhere for $1 each.

Brendan Rodgers blames 'soft goals' for Liverpool's shock defeat to Stoke
LIVERPOOL manager Brendan Rodgers admits a lack of consistency is damaging chances of progress at the club.
Four days after dispatching Fulham 4-0, the Reds lost 3-1 against Stoke at the Britannia Stadium - one of their bogey grounds - in a performance lacking in fight and application.
Prior to the victory over the Cottagers, Rodgers' side had suffered a surprise loss at home to Aston Villa and the Ulsterman accepted the up and down nature of their results was hindering their attempts to move up the Barclays Premier League table.
"Consistency is the biggest thing for the group," he said.
"We were terrific at the weekend but you have to be able to put some runs of games together - if not you will make two or three steps forward and then take one or two back.
"Maybe that has been the nature of the group over the last couple of years.
"We are looking to improve that and there is an awful lot of work to do."
Rodgers blamed the concession of soft goals for the defeat, which extended their winless run at the Britannia to five matches.
Steven Gerrard had put them ahead from a penalty awarded after just 32 seconds but Jon Walters scored twice either side of a Kenwyne Jones header as the Potters ran out worthy winners.
"We are 1-0 up at a difficult place to score goals and we wanted to gain the initiative from that," he added.
"But the nature of the goals we conceded was very soft and if you do that it is always going to be uphill in terms of getting a result.
"The first one is unfortunate as Martin Skrtel slips and Walters finished well, but the other two goals... we have to be better than that.
"It was too soft: a corner that sneaks in at the near post and then from a throw-in.
"You have to be better in those moments, especially against Stoke because you know that is a big part of their strength.
"It is not all about football. You have to earn the right to play, particularly coming here.
"I have no doubt about the characters we have but it was too easy."
Stoke boss Tony Pulis said the way his side responded to their early setback reflected the confidence and character within the team as a whole.
"It was a great result and performance," he said.
"I thought the response after going a goal behind after just 30 seconds was absolutely fantastic and epitomises what the group are about at the moment.
"We've played games where we've created more chances and finished 0-0 so we have been creating the chances but not been taking them.
"We have tremendous respect for Liverpool and we are very proud to host a game against such a great club and when you beat them it gives you great delight, it is always special."
Walters' second, controlling a flick-on from Jones on his chest and volleying past Jose Reina, was the pick of the goals and took him level with Ricardo Fuller as the club's all-time leading Premier League scorer with 18.
"It was a great finish and I am very pleased for Walts," Pulis added.
"His commitment to the group is fabulous and he is a good player as well."

Lane Alexander is the school guidance counselor at Hollywood Arts High School. Lane is a good guidance counselor, as he is seen often helping students with their problems and resolving their arguments, although he did question the students coming to him for help in The Great Ping Pong Scam. He is usually the one making the big announcements at school. He hates dry skin and can be seen in his office frequently applying lotion on his hands, which most fans call an obsession. Lane is the one who made the producers of The Wood leave because he thought it was becoming an issue with the students and disrupting the learning environment. Lane is often seen being very reluctant to help out the students most of the time as seen in an extended scene from Tori and Jade's Playdate when he wanted Cat and Robbie to tell a student that he was expelled from school.
Lane is portrayed by Lane Napper. He has an account on TheSlap, which is where his last name was revealed.
- Lane Napper, who plays Lane (same name), is no stranger to Dan Schneider shows. He was seen in the iCarly episode iWas a Pageant Girl, as Sam's dance teacher Ernie and Drake & Josh in a deleted scene from Really Big Shrimp. Towards the end of Really Big Shrimp, he is seen dancing with Megan. He also appeared as the host of the Academic Bowl that Drake participated in during the episode Smart Girl.
- He has the same name as himself in real life. His name is Lane Napper.
- He is in the "Lotion of the Month Club."
- He makes cookies with extra gluten as mentioned in Beck's Big Break and happily allows Robbie to eat it after standing up to Rex... before Robbie revealed that he was allergic to gluten.
- According to André in a picture on TheSlap, he loves using excessive amounts of hand lotion, which he sprayed on Robbie and Trina in The Wood. He also uses many different scents, including bacon, pickle, cookies and cream, and sour cream and onion potato chip.
- Lane has a young nephew named Devin, as seen in The Diddly-Bops.
- Robbie's original name was supposed to be Lane before the production began.
- Lane is the 2nd faculty member to get an account on TheSlap.
- He has a black PearPhone, as seen in Tori Gets Stuck.
- According to The Bird Scene, Lane's office is repeatedly inhabited by a squirrel that he has Robbie and André remove with nuts and a net.
- The only one who has yet to have any type of interaction with Lane is Beck.
- He reveals on TheSlap that he has a brother who is a chiropractor that he hasn't spoken to in years.
- He originally wanted to be a Guy Dance Counselor or a weatherman.
- He drives a convertible, according to TheSlap.
- He appeared in 10 Season One episodes, 6 episodes in Season 2 (including the iCarly crossover, which is, in fact, only an episode of iCarly, but is in Victorious' Season 2 time-frame), 4 episodes in Season Three, and just one episode of Season Four.
- In Stage Fighting, he thought Tori might be dangerous.
- Lane doesn't like to be sassed, as shown in One Thousand Berry Balls after Robbie jokingly questions him. He later said that sassing is "strictly prohibited" on TheSlap.

Formula One drivers threaten to BOYCOTT German Grand Prix after tyre chaos at Silverstone saw wheels on five cars EXPLODE
- Five drivers suffered blowouts at British GP at Silverstone on Sunday
- One piece of tyre narrowly missed the head of Fernando Alonso of Ferrari
- Grand Prix Drivers' Association express 'deepest concerns' over tyres
- Pirelli try to allay fears by introducing new rubbers for German GP
Formula One drivers announced on Thursday they will withdraw from this weekend's German Grand Prix if the tyre blow-outs which marred Sunday's British race occur again.
During news conferences, drivers sounded confident that tyre provider Pirelli had sorted out the problem by introducing new rubbers for the Nuerburgring race. However, following a meeting of the drivers' union, the tone hardened.
'The drivers of the Grand Prix Drivers' Association (GPDA) wish to express their deepest concerns about the events that took place at Silverstone,' a statement said.
Burst hopes: Mercedes' Lewis Hamilton has a left rear tyre failure. He was one of five who drivers suffered blowouts at the British GP at Silverstone on Sunday
'We trust that the changes made to the tyres will have the desired results and that similar problems will not occur during the German GP weekend.
'We are ready to drive our cars to the limit, as we always do, and as it is expected by our teams, sponsors and fans.
'However, the drivers have decided that, if similar problems should manifest themselves during the German GP, we shall immediately withdraw from the event, as this avoidable problem with the tyres endangers again the lives of drivers, marshals and fans.'
Dangerous: A piece of tyre from Sergio Perez's MacLaren narrowly missed the head of Fernando Alonso of Ferrari
Out with a bang: Toro Rosso's Jean Eric Vergne's tyre blows during the race leaving a huge piece of rubber in the track
Five drivers suffered blowouts at Silverstone on Sunday and a piece of tyre narrowly missed the head of Fernando Alonso of Ferrari. Felipe Massa was badly hurt after being struck on the helmet by a loose spring during a race in 2009.
Massa talked of a possible boycott immediately after Sunday's race, won by Nico Rosberg of Mercedes.
After the intervention of the governing FIA, Pirelli has brought upgraded rear tyres to the Nuerburgring for this year's German Grand Prix with an inner belt made of the synthetic fibre Kevlar rather than steel.
Fears: The punctured tyre of Ferrari Formula One driver Felipe Massa was torn to shreds. He was badly hurt after being struck on the helmet by a loose spring during a race in 2009
Melted: Pirelli has put some of the blame for the Silverstone blowouts on the teams for the way they managed its tyres
Shredded: Ferrari's Brazilian driver Felipe Massa enters the pit with a puncture
Spaniard Alonso, second in the standings behind Red Bull's triple world champion Sebastian Vettel, said earlier on Thursday he was reluctant to take part in a test at Silverstone later this month because he feared a repeat of the blow-outs.
Formula One's governing body responded to the tyre blowouts by deciding on Monday to change the rules and allow race drivers to test revised Pirelli tyres, instead of using young drivers.
A boycott would not be a first for the sport, which has experienced several walkouts by teams and drivers in its often turbulent history.
In 2005, seven teams pulled out of the US Grand Prix in Indianapolis because of tyre safety fears.
In 1985, the French Ligier and Renault teams shunned the South African Grand Prix - the penultimate race of the season - amid mounting international pressure against the apartheid system of racial segregation.
In 1982, only 14 cars started the San Marino Grand Prix at Imola after a boycott by teams - led by current commercial supremo Bernie Ecclestone - fighting the governing body in a political battle dubbed the 'FISA-FOCA war' within the sport.
That same year the drivers organised a strike before the South African race at Kyalami over restricting clauses in their superlicence agreements. The race went ahead after a compromise was reached.
In 1976 the Austrian Grand Prix was run without Ferrari, whose Austrian driver Niki Lauda was in hospital after a fiery crash at the Nuerburgring and who were incensed at McLaren's James Hunt having his Spanish Grand Prix win reinstated.
'I don't intend to go,' Alonso told reporters in the Ferrari motorhome. 'It's not a very safe thing racing on the same track with the same tyres. I don't have the feeling I want to go. But if the team wants me to go...'
Before the GPDA statement, double champion Alonso had put his faith in Pirelli to make this race a safer one, even if cooler rear tyres could benefit Mercedes and Red Bull based on this season's analysis.
'Pirelli made some changes so we trust them,' he said. 'This is the third or fourth change they make in the season already, some were hurting us, some were helping us. I think performance today is the second priority.
'The most important thing is to make it for dinner at home on Sunday. I was lucky... It (the piece of tyre) could have hit my helmet. It would have been like a bullet.'
Vettel said before the GPDA announcement: 'Like we said last weekend, it has to be safe. It was not what we want, not satisfactory. It's good we have a new tyre here.'
Red Bull team mate Mark Webber, who is swapping F1 for the equally dangerous pursuit of Le Mans endurance driving at the end of the season, rejected suggestions that kerbs at Silverstone had ruptured the tyres.
'All of a sudden in the race there were landmines everywhere which no one really predicted,' Webber said.
'In the end everyone left there in one piece... apart from the tyres. Pirelli will learn from it, they have to. There's no issues with the kerbs because the track was fine the last five years. I'm a bit more confident they've got more data.'
Pirelli has put some of the blame for the Silverstone blowouts on the teams for the way they managed its tyres. It conducted a 'secret' test with Mercedes in Barcelona in May for which the German team were punished by the FIA.
Mercedes have been ruled out of the Silverstone tyre trial this month.
