Uwe Krupp back in town
Just writing the name "Uwe Krupp" brought back a little tingle to my fingers.
It's probably been about three years since I have done that, and that's far too long. Uwe Krupp will be back in Denver Monday night for "Uwe Krupp Night" at the Pepsi Center, and even though I have Monday off, I can't miss Uwe Krupp Night. So I'm going to go, maybe just sit in the stands and watch the game with the rest of you. Screw the press box. The view is the worst in the building anyway.
Lots of old memories when Krupp's name comes up, none bigger, of course, than the goal he scored to win the 1996 Stanley Cup. It's a night I can never forget, naturally, not the least of which because I still have a t-shirt with the front page of the next day's Denver Post reproduced on it. Ever see a t-shirt with a story you wrote on it? It's a weird thing, believe me.
Some quick snapshots from that night in Miami:
– It was unbelievably hot in the building, probably 80 degrees or so. The air conditioning in the old Miami Arena was basically non-existent. It was a sweatbox.
– Craig Stadler hugging Patrick Roy after the game, saying "You @$#$$@ brick wall."
– When Krupp scored, it was about 1 a.m. eastern time, 11 mountain. Back in those days, we used Radio Shack TRS-80 computers, which had enough memory to hold – and I'm not kidding here – about three or four normal-length newspaper stories. After that, you had to delete a story just to make room for a new one.
That meant I had about an hour, tops, to run down a long concourse down in the arena bowels, start interviewing a packed, sweaty, loud, champagne-soaked locker room and also get more quotes from the official NHL podium rostrum of Avs players, run all the way back and start writing an entire new "Denver has its first pro championship team ever" story", not to mention another side story and some "candy" as they call it – basically things like picking the three stars and other little nuggets. It's to my everlasting shame that, in my harried, rushed, completely chaotic state of mind that I picked Krupp as the game's No. 1 star in the paper. Not that getting a goal to win the Stanley Cup isn't worthy of that perhaps, but NOT ON A NIGHT WHEN PATRICK ROY MADE 63 SAVES IN A 1-0, TRIPLE-OVERTIME SHUTOUT.
I blew that one, all right. Roy should have been No. 1 star. But it will forever show on that t-shirt, Krupp as the No. 1.
– With our flight back to Denver slated for 6 a.m., I didn't get a wink of sleep that night. All I vaguely remember after the game was utter silence outside Miami Arena. I mean, not a single person or sound anywhere around the perimeter of the building, only a couple hours probably after the final horn sounded. I also remember a massive bowl of shrimp back at the hotel, as part of the NHL's official afterparty. There may or may not have been some alcohol consumed too.
Krupp was one of my favorite players to cover, because he was very intelligent and liked to talk about other things besides hockey. He was a big music buff (Bush was a favorite band) and he was a guy who lived in Evergreen, in a big house who drove a Hummer back and forth to games. He also loved to race sled dogs (which got him in some trouble with his next team, the Detroit Red Wings). Krupp had a deep cynical streak, too, which only endeared him more to me. He was one of those guys who didn't just swallow the company line, who questioned authority at times and wasn't afraid to let his opinion be heard. Ironically, he's a coach now, for the German national team. I hope the fans give Uwe a huge hand tonight. I'm sure, if the Avs have a lick of sense, that they'll show the goal that won the Cup in '96, which would automatically get a big hand. But he was one of the original Avs, and that whole team will always have a special place in anybody's heart who cared about that team.

Kevin Dawson has an idea. The local graphic designer wants to create a phone app that allows people to play table-top games such as dungeons and dragons remotely on their phones. But before the idea can become a reality, Dawson needs about $7,500 to hire a developer. He tried unsuccessfully to raise the money through the crowdfunding website Kickstarter, so the project is at a standstill.
But local business and economic-development officials see hope for Dawson and other local aspiring entrepreneurs in a new law passed last month. The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act loosens regulations on crowdfunding, opening up new opportunities for small businesses and startups to solicit money from a large pool of small investors.
The new law has the potential to change the game for many of Durangos smaller businesses. Its a new avenue to raise capital that in recent history has only been available to large corporations, said Anthony Edwards, a Silverton lawyer who is starting a new crowdfunding-related business.
Allowing businesses to sell a portion of their company to a much broader base of potential investors levels the playing field, Edwards said.
Companies will no longer need to cater to the countrys relatively small number of accredited investors who are concentrated in a few major population centers. Now, even small companies in rural areas can seek money on a national platform without going through the unrealistic and expensive process of creating an initial public offering.
That opportunity to raise capital from anyone, anywhere it erases geographic barriers that might dissuade businesses to settle in a place like Durango, said Roger Zalneraitis, executive director of the La Plata Economic Development Alliance.
We hear a lot that companies need equity and have difficulty finding it, Zalneraitis said. We are very asset heavy for a rural region, better equity sources may help us attract and keep businesses.
On the flip side, Durangos retiree-friendly atmosphere attracts a lot of past executives interested in helping a new business start up, he said. The crowdfunding act also creates portals aimed at providing a way for companies and investors to find each other.
Crowdfunding can be an ideal way to fill the gap between a business owners initial capital and how much they need to qualify for a bank loan, said Joe Keck, director of the Southwest Colorado Small Business Development Center.
A lot of early startups struggle to qualify for financing because they dont have initial equity and havent existed for long enough to build a track record worthy of attracting big-time investors, he said.
(Crowdfunding) is almost like democratization of the financing industry, he said. The crowdfunding strategy could be especially valuable to businesses that produce a product or service that may not fit traditional banking criteria, he said.
The law also has potential benefits for community projects that may otherwise struggle to raise enough capital or equity to qualify for a bank loan. Members of a community could come together to support a project, such as the proposed resource recovery park, that could benefit everyone in the long run, Keck said.
The more communities that can determine their own ways to fund key economic-development projects that need to occur, the better, Keck said.
While democratization is good, the new law takes down regulations that historically have acted to protect investors, which could be risky, said Mark Daigle, president of First National Bank of Durango.
In an effort to protect investors, the law requires both parties to interact through a specific portal that ensures investors and offerers comply with investing limits and financial-transparency requirements.
Edwards company, Crowdfunding Offerings, is one of dozens around the country racing to capitalize on the new demand for the portals.
Im hoping this (law) is able to help foster a new entrepreneurial period in this country, Edwards said.

Conflict in Uruzgan leaves 80 schools closed
Conflict in Uruzgan leaves 80 schools closed
TIRINKOT (Pajhwok): At least 80 schools have been closed as a result of the recent conflict in central Uruzgan province, affecting thousands of students, an official said on Thursday.
Mohammad Nazir Kharoti, the governor's spokesman, told Pajhwok Afghan News the year-long conflict in Uruzgan rendered dozens of schools shut and people's cooperation was needed to reopen them.
He said efforts were underway in cooperation with local elders to reopen the 80 schools located in Tirinkot and districts.
A student of Malalai school said traditions also played a key role behind the closure of schools besides conflict in Uruzgan.
She said girls were harassed on their way to school and as a consequence, many girls opted to stay at home.
About 600 schools have been closed nationwide for various reasons including insecurity amid efforts by the authorities to reopen them as soon as possible.

Corbin was ready to pitch, bat, play outfield on marathon night
MILWAUKEE -- Patrick Corbin did not actually get into the D-backs' marathon 16-inning game against the Cardinals on Wednesday night, but the left-hander was prepared to contribute in a number of different roles if needed.
The D-backs were down to Corbin and Heath Bell as far as pitching possibilities, and there was also the chance that manager Kirk Gibson could have used Josh Wilson as an emergency pitcher and put Corbin, an excellent athlete, in left field.
"I was thinking I was going to pinch-hit," Corbin said. "Then they said I might have to play outfield. Wade [Miley] brought out his outfielders mitt and it's terrible, so Cody [Ross] gave me his. Then they said I might have to pitch. I said I could throw an inning."
Corbin is slated to make his first start of the year Saturday against the Brewers, but heading into Friday's game he knew that he was still on call.
With Josh Collmenter unavailable after throwing five innings Wednesday, Corbin was told to be ready on Friday if for some reason Wade Miley got knocked out of the game early.

Hi everyone,
I hope someone can help, I need to read a text file that the user inputs, the program then has to find words that appear more than 3 or 4 times and replace them with a shorthand version.
so the following text:
"hello, some times some people say hello and some times they don't, times sure are changing, say hello to the future"
would be condensed and written to a new file as:
"hello(h*), some(*s) times(t*) s* people say h* and s* t* they don't, t* sure are changing, say h* to the future"
My idea was to take the input file, and add each string to an array. Then re-read the file, and check each word to see if it appears more than twice in the array. If it does then output is substring of the array concatenated with an asterix, otherwise just output the string as it appears. . . problem is I can't seem to implement my plan very effectively at all
Any ideas?

A number of different data resources are available that provide information on the benefits of public transportation. These various data resources provide summary information at the state, local and national level. Many of these resources also provide very detailed information on individual public transportation systems.
APTA produces a number of specific products that serve as the resource for industry statistics, including the annual Fact Book. The Fact Book provides a wide range of data for all public transportation systems, including those that do not report to the National Transit Database. As such, this particular resource is considered the most comprehensive in the transit industry. Other statistical products generated by APTA, including the vehicle database, fare report, and infrastructure report, are based in large part on data provided to APTA by its members.
In addition to APTA products, a number of outside data resources provide useful agency specific information. Most notably, the National Transit Database serves as a common resource for public transportation systems.

Everybody knows that most people who actually have the power to purchase are online. Truly, the power of the internet may not be discounted anymore as more and more people are logging in and spending more time online. The internet now serves as a platform for people to gain knowledge, purchase products, exchange ideas, and so much more. This is why an increasing number of small businesses want to invade the internet through small business marketing. Doing this, and doing this properly, will allow for their customers to be more engaged in their products or services as well as promote the products they offer.
However, for somebody who is tasked to perform small business marketing using the internet, the process may get quite stressful as the process of deciding where to exhaust one's time and energy (on the internet) may get quite confusing. Social media tools alone come in thousands, and deciding which one is the best is quite a task. Some examples of social media are:
Blogging. This is one of the most effective ways to go into online small business marketing. Depending on the strategies applied, tools used, and widgets attached, a blog can be one of the most powerful and influential forms of media. Although people often overlook blogging as they seem informal, it is actually considered by many experts as the backbone of social media marketing.
Micro-blogging. As the name suggest, it is intrinsically the same as blogging, only that it is not text heavy. That is, the number of words (or characters) you may write at a time is limited; making information more easily digestible.
Facebook. This is probably the most popular social media marketing site in the world today. Unlike most social networking sites, they allow for small enterprises to go into small business marketing through fan pages where they may post information about their store, products, services, links to their sites and blogs, and interact with their customers.

I popped in to this shop early on Saturday morning to see what they had to offer. It's in an older more run down part of town, but things seem to be changing fast in this area. (Old homes razed and new homes popping up – like what is happening everywhere in Austin.) This shop is a cinder block building with cement floors. Not much to look at on the outside, but it's small and cozy feeling on the inside. They have some nice tea ware and a few books. I browsed their tea selections, lots of tisanes and flavored teas/blends. There was a smattering of puerh, some oolongs, greens, and some other pure teas, but not anything that really caught my eye. (I did sample the Royal Courtesan oolong out of curiosity and it was quite earthy and delicious!) There were 2 young ladies working and they were very nice. Not super knowledgable, but very accommodating and friendly. I almost left because there was nothing there I was interested in (and really, I have too many teas at home already!), but decided to stay and do a gonfu session with some tie guan yin. $8 for a gonfu set up and a thermos of hot water – it was actually very nice. They have a small selection of food which I thought was a plus, although I wasn't hungry so I didn't try anything. Aside from the entry door slamming whenever someone came or went, it was a relaxing space. They also have an outdoor area, but it's just a side yard, no landscaping, no patio or deck. It's got a picnic table and a tree swing. It would be really cool if they fixed up this outdoor space! There is a giant pecan tree out there – the biggest one I've ever seen – so I ended my visit by spending a little time with that tree swinging in the tree swing. If you're into tisanes and flavored teas they have you covered, and they have a decent selection of most other kinds of tea too. Stop in and enjoy a browse and a session with something new or find something yummy to take home. I could see this place being a super cozy hangout for locals, especially walk in customers. I hope they continue to do a good business here!
This is such a cute little place. It's on the corner of Bolm Rd and there's a sharp turn so be careful and it can be easy to miss. The staff are great and very knowledgeable. They have free samples which change daily and you can order a pot of tea or hot/iced tea to go. Zhi was what really got me into the loose leaf tea experience and I think their tea selection is superb!
Very cozy and lovely place. Plenty of teas to choose from. Friendly staff. Wish there was a place like this in dallas.
I went to this store with my roommate. It's a small building, easy to miss, and not very exciting looking on the outside. But inside is very welcoming and cozy! They have all their teas out for you to look at, and samples for smelling. There are a number of little tables and chairs, if you want to order something and hang out. I believe it has free wifi as well!
We ordered a chocolate croissant, an almond croissant, a cup of coconut assam, and a cup of tropical green. All were very good! I bought a good bit of tea, and a matcha set before I left. There was one girl at the register and helping customers. She was extremely friendly and helpful, offering personal favorites and suggestions when asked.
All the tea that I've tried from them has tasted very good. They also had a good bit of teaware and gift sets for sell, all seemed very reasonably priced.
We ended up staying so long, they had to ask us to leave because they were closing! It was a very fun and enjoyable experience, and I definitely plan on returning. I believe they are planning on opening other stores soon, hopefully one a bit closer to us up here in Georgetown!
I like Zhi Tea and I want to love everything about it. It's in an odd part of town for a tea shop; across from the train tracks, next door to a small convenience store and further down there are some apartments. It's not a classy part of town at all, but it's my part of town and I'm happy to see a tea room there. The shop is dark and cool like a cave during the summer, which is a nice break from the Texas heat, and dry and cozy during the winter.
Every time I have gone in I have been greeted by and waited on (but not at all pestered by) lovely counter staff. They have all been friendly, offered me a free cup of anything I'd like to try, educated me on the subject of tea and left me alone when I wanted to browse while still being available to answer any questions I might have. Perfect!
There are little sample sized tins of each tea in front of each tea so you can see and smell them. I really like being able to check out the teas by myself without a sales person hovering over me, but last time I was in there the samples smelled a bit weak and may have been due for a refreshing.
Teas are sold in a few sizes. Smallest are the sample bags so you can go on a get to know you date with their tea, next step up is a tin full if you want more commitment, THEN they have large bags for sale for when you decide you are deeply in love with a tea and want to get hitched.
The teas they make are all organic. They don't discontinue teas unless they can't source the ingredients anymore because they don't want to disappoint any customers who love that tea (something I wish other companies would consider). They have little magnets that give the steeping time for different teas on it which is a great reference to have on your fridge. The tins they use are tall and oval which makes room for more teas in your cupboard. So many reasons to love them!
The location, the building, setup and the staff are all great. What I'm not crazy about is the tea. I want to LOVE the tea and I don't. I want to support local businesses too. I have found a couple of teas I like, but most of it I'm just not into. I'm an added flavor kind of tea fan. I want my tea to remind me of cookies and cakes with coconut and almond slices with a hint of chocolate drizzled on top. I want dancing ponies and flying monkeys shooting off fireworks! I don't want to taste the slight nuances of tea from one hill in China from the next. I think I would be head over heels for Zhi if I liked more traditional tea or subtle flavors, but that is not my taste.
So in summary, great place, awesome staff, wonderful ethics, variety in amounts of tea to purchase, but the tea itself doesn't thrill me.
Great atmosphere, great teas, and not too crowded.
I visited Zhi Tea 12-11-11 @ 3:16pm
Website: http://zhitea.com/
Address: 4607 Bolm Rd., Austin, TX 78702
It was a very sharp turn to get to the right street, I passed it once and ended up having to circle back to it. There was limited parking, but the place was not very full. By the end of my visit there were 4 other patrons, 3 of which stayed with for here drinks.
One woman, the blender, was taking care of the front of the store. She was very knowledgeable and helpful with telling me about the teas and helping me select one to have.
The walls were covered with shelves of tea, and plenty of sampler sizes.
There were 4 tables, and 1 couch corner.
Average experience for a tea shop, but cozy and nice. I will gladly go back to visit next time I am in Austin.
(x-posted from Yelp:)
My day did not start off well. I had a doctor's appointment at 9:30 (for a simple update of my birth control prescription), and they said it'd take an hour – I was there for TWO HOURS, and only fifteen of that was spent talking to someone. Then I went to Whole Foods to get lunch, and because I was running late, I hit it in the middle of the lunch rush – everything was a total clusterf-ck and the lines were out-of-this-world wacky, so I left, heading to Zhi Tea. By this time I was kind of grouchy, since I was hungry and this was supposed to be my day off.
An hour and a half later, I felt like I had just been to a spa. Oh MY. Where do I even start with how awesome of an experience this was? I sampled one of their teas, asked a LOT of questions (I'm fairly new to tea), got a mug of cacao chai (delicious, btw) & a chocolate croissant (also delicious, but does that need stating?) and relaxed for a while, then sampled another tea, chatted about all the different kinds, and left with three of the teaser packs. Both of the associates I talked to were delightful – friendly, informative, not pushy, oh so helpful.
I came home, all blissed out despite crappy road construction for most of the east-side length of 7th street, and immediately raved to my roommate about it for ten minutes, then made her smell all of the teas I bought. Their tea isn't cheap, but it's not the most expensive ever, either, it tastes great, it's organic and fair trade, and all of the pastries & such at the counter are organic AND locally made. This place is amazing. Just go there.
I hope they liked me, because they'll be seeing me on a regular basis from now on!
PS: that original review was written over an hour ago and I'm still all blissed out. I wonder if they spike their tea? ;)

Drew Industries Inc. today (April 11) announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Lippert Components Inc., has entered into a six-year aluminum extrusion supply agreement with Dallas-based Atrium Windows and Doors Inc. Concurrently, Lippert Components sold certain of its aluminum extrusion assets to Atrium.
"Extruded aluminum is a key raw material for us, and identifying a strong supplier such as Atrium was critical in our search for a new third-party supplier," said Scott Mereness, Drew's president in a press release. "We were able to reach an agreement with Atrium to supply us with a portion of our extruded aluminum requirements over the next six years at a competitive market price."
"We look forward to this new supplier relationship with Lippert Components," added Brian Slobodow, COO of Atrium. "Atrium has been extruding aluminum for over 35 years, with a history of producing high quality products. This additional extrusion volume will be produced at our existing Texas facility and will significantly increase the capacity utilization of our plant."
Drew also reported that it has sold certain of its aluminum extrusion assets to Atrium for $7.5 million, payable over the next four years, plus contingent consideration of $1.25 million once 95 million pounds of aluminum extruded products are purchased during the term of the supply agreement. Drew anticipates recording a pre-tax loss on this sale of approximately $2 million in the second quarter of 2014.
Mereness noted, "As part of our ongoing evaluation of capacity and asset utilization, we concluded that our aluminum extrusion assets were not meeting our internal financial standards. The sale of our extrusion related assets will free up needed manufacturing space, as well as allow management to focus on other opportunities with higher growth potential. The outsourcing of these aluminum extrusion requirements to Atrium will immediately be accretive to earnings."

The time to start talking to your teen about underage drinking is now. Follow these tips to help prevent underage alcohol use.
Think your teen is too young for you to start a conversation about underage drinking? Think again.
Early adolescence is when some children begin experimenting with alcohol or feeling pressure to drink. To encourage your teen to avoid alcohol, talk to him or her about the risks and the importance of making good decisions.
Mayo Clinic does not endorse companies or products. Advertising revenue supports our not-for-profit mission.
Teens are particularly vulnerable to alcohol use. Coping with the stress of fitting in and challenging transitions, such as going from middle school to high school, moving, or dealing with the effects of divorce, might influence a teen to drink. Also, your teen might have trouble understanding that his or her actions can have harmful consequences.
Other risk factors include:
Underage drinking can lead to:
You might be unsure of what to say to your teen about underage drinking, and your teen might try to dodge the conversation. To start the discussion, choose a time when you and your teen are relaxed. Don't worry about covering everything. If you talk often, you might have a greater impact on your teen than if you only talk once.
When you talk about underage drinking:
In addition to talking to your teen:
If you suspect that your teen has been drinking, talk to him or her. Enforce the consequences you've established. If you think your teen might have a drinking problem, contact your teen's doctor or a counselor or other health care provider who specializes in alcohol problems. Teens who have alcohol problems aren't likely to realize it — or seek help — on their own.
It's never too soon to start talking to your teen about underage alcohol use. By talking now, you'll help give your teen the guidance and support necessary to make good choices.

CLEARWATER, Fla. - With Opening Day five days away, Ruben Amaro Jr. said he had not made any decisions on how many pitchers would be on his roster, nor did he have any idea who would fill the up-in-the-air role as the team's utility infielder.
'On the 4th you will know,' Amaro said, referring to Wednesday's 5 p.m. roster deadline. 'When we have a decision on our 25-man roster, you will all know. You will not know before that, until we tell you.'
Amaro was more forthcoming on his plans for one of his relievers with uncertain status. The general manager said Jose Contreras would 'probably start the season on the disabled list.'
Contreras had elbow surgery in September and didn't begin throwing in games this spring until mid-March. His fastball was clocked at 92 miles-per-hour in a minor league game Wednesday.
'He's doing well - we're just bringing him along,' Amaro said of Contreras, who can be activated April 10.
Fellow right-handed reliever Mike Stutes played catch without issue Saturday and plans to do the same today. Stutes took a few days off this week after experiencing right shoulder soreness; he could also be a candidate to begin the season on the disabled list in an effort to be conservative in his return, too.
With a few bullpen jobs open as a result, the Phillies could turn to two lefties in camp: former first-round pick Joe Savery and veteran Raul Valdes.
Valdes allowed one unearned run while striking out three in two innings Saturday. Savery hasn't allowed a run in six of his seven outings this spring while striking out nine in 8 1/3 innings.
'Valdes is a strike-thrower. Joe is a life saver,' manager Charlie Manuel said. 'It is a good race. I like both of the guys.'
• Chase Utley emptied his locker stall with the rest of his teammates on Saturday, prepping for a day trip to Disney World before boarding a plane bound for Philly out of Orlando Sunday.
Utley is tentatively scheduled to travel to Pittsburgh, too, as the Phillies open the regular season at PNC Park Thursday afternoon. But his plans beyond that are undefined.
'I'm not sure what the plan is yet, but at some point we're going to sit down and talk about that,' Utley said Saturday.
Utley, who has been sidelined with a left knee injury, said he was feeling better. But he hasn't taken part in any baseball activities since leaving camp to see a specialist two weeks ago.
'Not a whole lot has changed,' Utley said. 'It's pretty much the same.'
• Roy Halladay's final spring tuning was nearly washed out Saturday afternoon at Bright House Field. But a post-start bullpen session inside the Phillies batting cage allowed him to finish his Florida prep work strong.
After throwing two innings against the Toronto Blue Jays, Halladay threw '15 to 20' more pitches inside the cage during a 37-minute rain delay.
'I got to face some hitters which for there a little while we weren't sure if I was going to be in the cage from the get-go – I'll take it,' Halladay said of a game that began with ominous clouds on the horizon. 'If it's every going to rain it might as well be today on a short (start) as opposed to one where you're supposed to throw six or seven innings.'
As with every starting pitcher's last exhibition game, Halladay's final spring start was supposed to be scaled back anyway. On Thursday, he'll make his 10th straight Opening Day start - the most among active pitchers - at PNC Park against the Pittsburgh Pirates.
'I'm happy with everything,' Halladay said of the exhibition season. 'The last week is always tough. I'm looking forward to a change of scenery; I've been here since December, so I'm ready.'
• Before John Mayberry Jr. stepped to the plate to lead off the seventh inning, Manuel out a small piece of advice to him. It was a small, mechanical adjustment - the manager told Mayberry to load up properly and keep his hands above the ball.
'That was the last thing he said… and the results were immediate,' Mayberry said.
Mayberry teed up a 1-1 pitch from Clint Everts and deposited it over the fence in left field for his first home run of the spring. The hit also snapped an 0-for-19 funk for Mayberry, who entered camp as a favorite to win a starting job, either in left field or at first base in the absence of Ryan Howard.
Mayberry is hitting .192 (14-for-73) with a .244 on-base percentage in 27 games this spring.
'I definitely haven't swung it the way I'm capable of, but with baseball it can be one little thing that turns you around,' Mayberry said.
'Mayberry is no different from any other guy who's a big hitter and take a big stride at the ball and things like that,' Manuel said. 'Those guys they go through periods where they don't get no hits. You can call it whatever you want to but they'll get their 0-for-10s, 15s, 20s.'
While Mayberry has struggled this spring, Carlos Ruiz hasn't slowed down since game began. Ruiz went 2-for-2 with a double to raise his exhibition season average to .512 (21-for-41).
Ruiz has hit two home runs, seven doubles and has struck out just once.
'Chooch has been staying on the ball real good, he's got a quick bat and he's been loading good and really staying on the ball good,' Manuel said. 'He's been selective, getting good balls to hit, good fastballs to hit.'
• The Phils signed infielder Andres Blanco to a minor league contract Saturday; he will report to minor league camp. The 27-year-old Blanco has hit .255 in 235 major league games with the Royals, Cubs and Rangers. … Despite the unfavorable weather early, the Phillies hosted a sell-out crowd of 8,849 fans on Saturday – a total that ended the exhibition season at a record total attendance of 157,892 at Bright House Field this spring.

Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, Vol. 2, by Edward Gibbon, [1781], at sacred-texts.com
The vague descriptions of exile and imprisonment, of pain and torture, are so easily exaggerated or softened by the pencil of an artful orator, *_0021 that we are naturally induced to inquire into a fact of a more distinct and stubborn kind; the number of persons who suffered death in consequence of the edicts published by Diocletian, his associates, and his successors. The recent legendaries record whole armies and cities, which were at once swept away by the undistinguishing rage of persecution. The more ancient writers content themselves with pouring out a liberal effusion of loose and tragical invectives, without condescending to ascertain the precise number of those persons who were permitted to seal with their blood their belief of the gospel. From the history of Eusebius, it may, however, be collected, that only nine bishops were punished with death; and we are assured, by his particular enumeration of the martyrs of Palestine, that no more than ninety-two Christians were entitled to that honorable appellation. 182 !_0021 As we are unacquainted with the degree of episcopal zeal and courage which prevailed at that time, it is not in our power to draw any useful inferences from the former of these facts: but the latter may serve to justify a very important and probable conclusion. According to the distribution of Roman provinces, Palestine may be considered as the sixteenth part of the Eastern empire: 183 and since there were some governors, who from a real or affected clemency had preserved their hands unstained with the blood of the faithful, 184 it is reasonable to believe, that the country which had given birth to Christianity, produced at least the sixteenth part of the martyrs who suffered death within the dominions of Galerius and Maximin; the whole might consequently amount to about fifteen hundred, a number which, if it is equally divided between the ten years of the persecution, will allow an annual consumption of one hundred and fifty martyrs. Allotting the same proportion to the provinces of Italy, Africa, and perhaps Spain, where, at the end of two or three years, the rigor of the penal laws was either suspended or abolished, the multitude of Christians in the Roman empire, on whom a capital punishment was inflicted by a judicia, sentence, will be reduced to somewhat less than two thousand persons. Since it cannot be doubted that the Christians were more numerous, and their enemies more exasperated, in the time of Diocletian, than they had ever been in any former persecution, this probable and moderate computation may teach us to estimate the number of primitive saints and martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the important purpose of introducing Christianity into the world.
We shall conclude this chapter by a melancholy truth, which obtrudes itself on the reluctant mind; that even admitting, without hesitation or inquiry, all that history has recorded, or devotion has feigned, on the subject of martyrdoms, it must still be acknowledged, that the Christians, in the course of their intestine dissensions, have inflicted far greater severities on each other, than they had experienced from the zeal of infidels. During the ages of ignorance which followed the subversion of the Roman empire in the West, the bishops of the Imperial city extended their dominion over the laity as well as clergy of the Latin church. The fabric of superstition which they had erected, and which might long have defied the feeble efforts of reason, was at length assaulted by a crowd of daring fanatics, who from the twelfth to the sixteenth century assumed the popular character of reformers. The church of Rome defended by violence the empire which she had acquired by fraud; a system of peace and benevolence was soon disgraced by proscriptions, war, massacres, and the institution of the holy office. And as the reformers were animated by the love of civil as well as of religious freedom, the Catholic princes connected their own interest with that of the clergy, and enforced by fire and the sword the terrors of spiritual censures. In the Netherlands alone, more than one hundred thousand of the subjects of Charles V. are said to have suffered by the hand of the executioner; and this extraordinary number is attested by Grotius, 185 a man of genius and learning, who preserved his moderation amidst the fury of contending sects, and who composed the annals of his own age and country, at a time when the invention of printing had facilitated the means of intelligence, and increased the danger of detection. If we are obliged to submit our belief to the authority of Grotius, it must be allowed, that the number of Protestants, who were executed in a single province and a single reign, far exceeded that of the primitive martyrs in the space of three centuries, and of the Roman empire. But if the improbability of the fact itself should prevail over the weight of evidence; if Grotius should be convicted of exaggerating the merit and sufferings of the Reformers; 186 we shall be naturally led to inquire what confidence can be placed in the doubtful and imperfect monuments of ancient credulity; what degree of credit can be assigned to a courtly bishop, and a passionate declaimer, *_0022 who, under the protection of Constantine, enjoyed the exclusive privilege of recording the persecutions inflicted on the Christians by the vanquished rivals or disregarded predecessors of their gracious sovereign.
*_0021 Perhaps there never was an instance of an author committing so deliberately the fault which he reprobates so strongly in others. What is the dexterous management of the more inartificial historians of Christianity, in exaggerating the numbers of the martyrs, compared to the unfair address with which Gibbon here quietly dismisses from the account all the horrible and excruciating tortures which fell short of death? The reader may refer to the xiith chapter (book viii.) of Eusebius for the description and for the scenes of these tortures. - M.
182 Eusebius de Martyr. Palestin. c. 13. He closes his narration by assuring us that these were the martyrdoms inflicted in Palestine, during the whole course of the persecution. The 9th chapter of his viiith book, which relates to the province of Thebais in Egypt, may seem to contradict our moderate computation; but it will only lead us to admire the artful management of the historian. Choosing for the scene of the most exquisite cruelty the most remote and sequestered country of the Roman empire, he relates that in Thebais from ten to one hundred persons had frequently suffered martyrdom in the same day. But when he proceeds to mention his own journey into Egypt, his language insensibly becomes more cautious and moderate. Instead of a large, but definite number, he speaks of many Christians, and most artfully selects two ambiguous words, which may signify either what he had seen, or what he had heard; either the expectation, or the execution of the punishment. Having thus provided a secure evasion, he commits the equivocal passage to his readers and translators; justly conceiving that their piety would induce them to prefer the most favorable sense. There was perhaps some malice in the remark of Theodorus Metochita, that all who, like Eusebius, had been conversant with the Egyptians, delighted in an obscure and intricate style. (See Valesius ad loc.)
!_0021 This calculation is made from the martyrs, of whom Eusebius speaks by name; but he recognizes a much greater number. Thus the ninth and tenth chapters of his work are entitled, "Of Antoninus, Zebinus, Germanus, and other martyrs; of Peter the monk. of Asclepius the Maroionite, and other martyrs." [Are these vague contents of chapters very good authority? - M.] Speaking of those who suffered under Diocletian, he says, "I will only relate the death of one of these, from which, the reader may divine what befell the rest." Hist. Eccl. viii. 6. [This relates only to the martyrs in the royal household. - M.] Dodwell had made, before Gibbon, this calculation and these objections; but Ruinart (Act. Mart. Pref p. 27, et seq.) has answered him in a peremptory manner: Nobis constat Eusebium in historia infinitos passim martyres admisisse. quamvis revera paucorum nomina recensuerit. Nec alium Eusebii interpretem quam ipsummet Eusebium proferimus, qui (l. iii. c. 33) ait sub Trajano plurimosa ex fidelibus martyrii certamen subiisse (l. v. init.) sub Antonino et Vero innumerabiles prope martyres per universum orbem enituisse affirmat. (L. vi. c. 1.) Severum persecutionem concitasse refert, in qua per omnes ubique locorum Ecclesias, ab athletis pro pietate certantibus, illustria confecta fuerunt martyria. Sic de Decii, sic de Valeriani, persecutionibus loquitur, quae an Dodwelli faveant conjectionibus judicet aequus lector. Even in the persecutions which Gibbon has represented as much more mild than that of Diocletian, the number of martyrs appears much greater than that to which he limits the martyrs of the latter: and this number is attested by incontestable monuments. I will quote but one example. We find among the letters of St. Cyprian one from Lucianus to Celerinus, written from the depth of a prison, in which Lucianus names seventeen of his brethren dead, some in the quarries, some in the midst of tortures some of starvation in prison. Jussi sumus (he proceeds) secundum prae ceptum imperatoris, fame et siti necari, et reclusi sumus in duabus cellis, ta ut nos afficerent fame et siti et ignis vapore. - G.
183 When Palestine was divided into three, the praefecture of the East contained forty-eight provinces. As the ancient distinctions of nations were long since abolished, the Romans distributed the provinces according to a general proportion of their extent and opulence.
184 Ut gloriari possint nullam se innocentium poremisse, nam et ipse audivi aloquos gloriantes, quia administratio sua, in hac paris merit incruenta. Lactant. Institur. Divin v. 11.
185 Grot. Annal. de Rebus Belgicis, l. i. p. 12, edit. fol.
186 Fra Paola (Istoria del Concilio Tridentino, l. iii.) reduces the number of the Belgic martyrs to 50,000. In learning and moderation Fra Paola was not inferior to Grotius. The priority of time gives some advantage to the evidence of the former, which he loses, on the other hand, by the distance of Venice from the Netherlands.
*_0022 Eusebius and the author of the Treatise de Mortibus Persecutorum. It is deeply to be regretted that the history of this period rest so much on the loose and, it must be admitted, by no means scrupulous authority of Eusebius. Ecclesiastical history is a solemn and melancholy lesson that the best, even the most sacred, cause will eventually the least departure from truth! - M.

Holly is a seriously simple to-do list, no accounts required
Today's Best Tech Deals
Picked by PCWorld's Editors
Top Deals On Great Products
Picked by Techconnect's Editors
If you manage dozens of employees on complex projects with interlocking deadlines, task delegations, and complex dependencies, Holly is not for you. But if you are looking for a simple way to rein in your to-do list without downloading an application or opening an account, this simple and free Web app may be just the ticket: Holly is just one step above a simple todo.txt file.
To start using Holly, simply go to http://hollyapp.com and click the big "Start writing" button. You will instantly find yourself in a to-do list pre-populated with some simple items showing off Holly's features, such as deadlines, task tags, and nesting. Your list also will also get a unique URL which you can use to share the list with others, or to access it from other computers. This is similar to the obfuscated URL you get when sharing a Google Docs document–anyone with the URL can access the list, but the URL is practically impossible to guess.
Clicking an individual item takes you into the editing screen, which looks like a simple text editor. There are no boxes to tick or drop-downs to pick from--your list is all text. Holly detects a few special syntax structures, so you can set deadlines by prefacing your task description with a date, and categorize tasks using hashtags (#ProjectX).
Not having to open an account before getting started is a great time saver. That said, it would be nice if accounts were at least an optional feature: This could pave the way for connecting Holly with Dropbox, and editing the lists as plain-text files in any editor. This is something you can already do with todo.txt, but that's a downloadable solution that requires a few setup steps before you can use it.
Another feature that's missing from Holly at the moment is item folding. Holly makes it easy to nest lists and list items, but offers no way to collapse your lists. On the plus side, Holly already features a few handy keyboard shortcuts, such as Alt+Shift+E for editing the list, and Alt+Shift+S for saving it. These make it possible to use Holly without ever reaching for the mouse, except for ticking tasks off as done.
Holly doesn't try to do it all, and by offering a narrow, focused set of features, it comes off as a simple and elegant solution. It may not be the best choice for a NASA-scale project, but it's great for small projects and personal management.
Note: The Download button takes you to the vendor's site, where you can use the latest version of this Web-based software.
