Nick Gubbins defied Yorkshire's five-man seam attack with a battling 120 not out at Lord's to guide Middlesex to 208 for 5 on the opening day of the potential Specsavers County Championship title decider between the top two in Division One.
Gubbins, the 22-year-old left-hander, reached his fourth championship hundred of the season by pulling Ryan Sidebottom for six into the Grand Stand and an unbroken sixth wicket stand of 54 with James Franklin, who is 21 not out, had tilted the first skirmishes of what promises to be a fascinating contest Middlesex's way before bad light lopped 14 overs from the final hour's play.
As it happened: Yorkshire v Middlesex opening day
Yorkshire took the early honours after an uncontested toss, their decision to bowl first vindicated when Middlesex slid to 57 for 3 with Jack Brooks taking 2 for 22 in a probing new ball spell in overcast conditions.
But Gubbins led the fightback and there was a big moment in the day just before tea when Franklin, on 1, was badly missed by Gary Ballance at third slip off an unlucky Tim Bresnan.
After the interval, on 96, Gubbins looked to have tickled a legside catch to the keeper off Sidebottom, but umpire Rob Bailey turned down Yorkshire appeals.
Yorkshire only had themselves to blame, though, for letting Gubbins get that far.
On 22, with Middlesex's total 53, Gubbins was also dropped at point by Azeem Rafiq, who leapt to try to claw down a square cut at Steven Patterson but could not cling on.
Earlier, Brooks sent back Sam Robson and Nick Compton in his new ball burst, before David Willey held his nerve against Dawid Malan to bowl the aggressive left-hander off an inside edge for 22.
Opener Gubbins, unfortunate not to be selected for England's winter Test tours after a prolific season in championship cricket in which he has now topped 1300 runs, fought hard to hold Middlesex's first innings together while both Stevie Eskinazi and then John Simpson hung on with him for a while on a pitch offering occasional low bounce.
Eskinazi played on to the impressive Brooks for 12 and Simpson's innings of 15 ended when he shouldered arms to an inswinger from Bresnan which pinned him palpably in front. Brooks ended the first day with 3 for 45.
Robson had been leg-before for a duck in Brooks' fourth over from the Nursery End, beaten by a full ball angled into him. Compton was also lbw, for 8, offering no stroke to a ball from Brooks which nipped back up the Lord's slope.
Malan greeted Willey's introduction by hitting four fours and a two from the first seven balls he faced from the left-arm seamer, but perished when he aimed one expansive off drive too many. Willey, whose first over cost 15 runs, ended up with creditable figures of 1 for 25 from his initial six-over spell.
Rafiq's off breaks were not introduced until the 56th over and he bowled only a handful of overs before Yorkshire took the second new ball immediately it was due. Two overs later, however, bad light intervened with MCC not allowed to use the Lord's floodlights because of an agreement with the local council limiting the number of times they can be switched on in a season.
That means, in essence, that floodlights cannot be used in any championship fixture on the ground.
Yorkshire, who are in second place, nine points behind Middlesex, need to win to preserve their hopes of a hat-trick of titles.
But both teams could be pipped by third-placed Somerset, who have won the toss and elected to bat in their final game against Notts at Taunton.
Yorkshire have left out batsman Jack Leaning and pace bowler Liam Plunkett from their 13-man squad.
Middlesex: Robson, Gubbins, Compton, Eskinazi, Malan, Franklin (captain), Simpson, Rayner, Roland-Jones, Murtagh, Finn.
Yorkshire: Lyth, Lees, Ballance, Gale (captain), Bresnan, Hodd, Willey, Rafiq, Patterson, Brooks, Sidebottom.

Trades help rejuvenate Padres system
Gyorko leads club with 114 RBIs, Rizzo torches PCL after trade
By Robert Emrich / Special to MLB.com | December 6, 2011 5:00 AM
2011 was a completely different season for San Diego, as its affiliates tied for the sixth-best record in the Minor Leagues. San Antonio was far and away the best team in the Double-A Texas League, winning 94 games and taking home the league title.
The Eugene Emeralds took the short-season Northwest League by storm, and at 46-30, finished with the best record on the circuit. Both Class A Fort Wayne and Class A Advanced Lake Elsinore, with the Storm topping Stockton, 10-3, to take the best-of-5 California League Finals in four games.
Last December's trade of Adrian Gonzalez to Boston paid immediate dividends for the Padres as Anthony Rizzo turned heads in the Pacific Coast League before earning a promotion to San Diego. Casey Kelly, a former first-rounder, finished 11-6 for San Antonio, and Reymond Fuentes swiped 41 bases for Lake Elsinore. A fourth player, Eric Patterson, split the season between Triple-A Tucson and San Diego.
Catcher -- Jason Hagerty, Lake Elsinore (68 games), San Antonio (36 games): A fifth-round pick in 2009, Hagerty climbed two levels in 2011, batting .311 with eight homers and 47 RBIs in 68 California League contests for the Storm. He struggled at Double-A, posting a .633 OPS for the Missions. Randy Smith, the Padres' vice president of player development, praised the backstop's prowess behind the plate.
"With Hags, you have a switch-hitting catcher with good arm strength and a quick release," Smith said. "He still needs some work with his blocking and game calling, but that's going to come with experience. He's right on target as far as were concerned."
First base -- Anthony Rizzo, Tucson (93 games), San Diego (49 games): One of the key pieces acquired from Boston in the Gonzalez deal, Rizzo scorched the Pacific Coast League, batting .331 with 26 homers for Tucson. Despite spending significant time in the Majors, the Padres' No. 2 prospect finished second on the circuit with a 1.056 OPS.
"That's a crazy season he put together in Tucson," the former general manager said. "Those numbers projected out over a full year are ridiculous. He just flat out dominated the PCL and he's got a bright future."
Second base -- Jonathan Galvez, Lake Elsinore (128 games): The Dominican native continued to improve offensively, establishing new career highs with 13 homers, 86 RBIs, 37 stolen bases and 142 hits. Overall, the 20-year-old batted .291 with an .820 OPS, tops among California League second baseman.
"It was his first full year at second base and he had a really solid year with the power and the stolen bases. He hit 10-plus homers, 30-plus doubles and had 30-plus steals, it's a really good year," Smith said.
Shortstop -- Jeudy Valdez, Lake Elsinore (122 games): Valdez continued to make his mark on the organization, tying Jaff Decker for fourth with 92 RBIs and was seventh with a .295 average. The 22-year-old Dominican native slugged 15 homers, tying Stockton's Dusty Coleman for most among California League shortstops, and also stole 34 bases.
"It was his first year back at short since the Arizona League, but he did a good job making the transition," Smith said. "He's a five-tool middle infielder. He had a real slow April and they reworked his swing at the end of Spring Training. I thought he showed a lot of maturity sticking with it."
Third base -- Jedd Gyorko, Lake Elsinore (81 games), San Antonio (59 games): Gyorko firmly entrenched himself in the ranks of the Padres' top prospects with a big year in 2011. A second-round pick in 2010, Gyorko was second among San Diego farmhands with 25 homers and led the organization with 114 RBIs. He was also second with a .333 batting average and displayed a solid glove, committing 13 errors in 299 chances in the field. Gyorko went on to win the Arizona Fall League batting title with a .437 average.
"He had an amazing year. He started off the year hot in the California League and continued that right into the Texas League and into the fall league. He won the batting title in the fall league," the 48-year-old Smith said. "He hit from March until November. He's got great hands and good feet for a guy that doesn't have good speed defensively and does a good job at third. He hits the ball to all fields, drove in runs and showed power, there isn't much more you can ask for."
Rymer Liriano, Fort Wayne (116 games), Lake Elsinore (15 games): Despite struggling early in the season in the California League, Liriano enjoyed an incredible 2011 campaign, earning the Midwest League Most Valuable Player Award. He batted .319 with 12 homers, 81 runs and 65 stolen bases for the TinCaps. Liriano scorched the ball in the summer, batting .367 with 22 extra-base hits and 42 stolen bases in July and August.
"He's a beast. He's a five-tool guy and he's got a chance to impact the game in a lot of different ways. He hits the ball extremely hard, and I think you'll see his power numbers continue to rise. He was very hard on himself; pitch recognition really came together for him. He's got a very bright future."
Jaff Decker, San Antonio (133 games): Despite batting just .236 for the Missions, Decker tied for fourth in the Padres system with 92 RBIs and drew a career-high 103 walks -- one of two Minor Leaguers to crack the century mark in bases on balls. The 5-foot-10 outfielder slugged 19 homers and stole 15 bases for San Antonio. He also proved vital in the title run, going deep three times in the playoffs.
"That's a tough place to hit in the Texas League. San Antonio is a pitcher's park and he hit 19 homers, that's good," Smith said. "We'd like to see him be a bit more aggressive at the plate, he sometimes gets himself into a hole. He's a better athlete than he gets credit for. I think for a young guy at Double-A, it's a good year, certainly one he can improve. I think you'll see the average go up next year and I think he's done well. He's worked hard to get himself into good shape and that's a sign of maturity. That will bode well for his future."
Reymond Fuentes Lake Elsinore (124 games): Fuentes put his speed to good use, finishing fourth in the California League with 41 stolen bases and tied for third with nine triples. The 20-year-old Floridian racked up a career-high 188 total bases and scored 84 runs, second on the Storm.
"I think that's for us playing at Petco, speed is a very important part of putting together a competitive club," Smith said. "Rey can really go get the ball and has tremendous speed on the bases. We'd like to see him use his speed more -- bunt for hits. He's got enough power to keep the defense honest. He's an exciting player to watch."
Utility -- Matt Clark, Tucson (129 games): Clark did in 2011 what he has done his entire Minor League career, and that was mash the ball. He went deep 23 times for Tucson, his third straight year with at least 20 homers, and was second on the club to Rizzo with 83 RBIs. The 24-year-old batted a career-high .292 and cut his strikeout totals down by 30 despite making the jump to Triple-A.
"Clark is one of those guys that's gone out and quietly put up good numbers every year," Smith said. "He's another guy that got himself into better shape. We asked him to play more in the outfield than before. He can hit the baseball and he can drive in runs. He just keeps doing it every year. He's been kind of flying beneath the radar so to speak."
Right-handed starting pitcher -- Keyvius Sampson, Fort Wayne (24 games): Finally getting his first chance to pitch in a full season, Sampson rewarded the Padres' faith by going 12-3 with a 2.90 ERA for the TinCaps. The former fourth-rounder was third in the Midwest League with 143 strikeouts and fourth with a 1.10 WHIP and led the Padres organization with his 12 victories.
"He was another guy that maturity played a big role in his development," Smith said. "He got his fastball into the mid-90s, and he commands an excellent change-up. He probably only had a couple of bad starts throughout the year. He's got a great arm and he's a good athlete as well."
Left-handed starting pitcher -- Mark Hardy, Fort Wayne (27 games): Starting the season in the bullpen, Hardy finished the season as a mainstay of the TinCaps' rotation. The 23-year-old left-hander not only led the Midwest League, but also Padres affiliates with a 2.78 ERA and finished second behind teammate Sampson with 11 wins.
"He's a Canadian kid, a later-round Draft pick and he pitched well for us in 2010," Smith said. "This year he picked up where he left off. He seems to rise the occasion of every challenge we give him. A solid feel for pitching, he'll show you three pitches. He's a guy that might continue to improve and gain velocity as he gains experience. He's a good competitor and a tough kid."
Reliever -- Brad Brach San Antonio (42 games), Tucson (25 games), San Diego (nine games): A 42nd-round pick in 2008, Brach delivered his third straight year with at least 30 saves, notching 34 between the Missions and the Padres to top the organization. The 6-foot-6 right-hander limited Minor League batters to a .220 average and made his Major League debut in 2011, going 0-2 with a 5.14 ERA in nine games for San Diego.
"Brad works extremely quick and has very good command of his velocity," Smith said. "He's consistently around 93-95 mph, and his slider has improved. I think that's made progress. He gets the ball and he throws strikes and just continues to get the last out and continues to shake a lot of hands at the end of the game. He deserves a lot of credit; he's gotten better every year. He's continued to work with a great tempo, which is a huge advantage. He's fun to watch and it doesn't take very long, which is a good thing."

BERLIN- Stephen Decatur's standout cross-country runner Lindsey Chetelat turned in a great performance at the state Class 3A championship meet last weekend, finishing fifth in the field on 147 competitors from all over the state.
Chetelat was the lone representative from Decatur or anywhere else on the Eastern Shore at the state championship meet at Hereford High in Baltimore County last Saturday. She acquitted herself well carrying her school's banner at the state meet, finishing fifth among some of the top female cross country runners in the state.
Chetelat completed in course in 20:41, or about a minute and five seconds behind the winner, Kristen Malloy of Hereford, who finished in 19:36. Chetelat posted a first split time of 6:16 and a second split time of 13:43 as she ran at a 6:40 pace for the mile. Howard High's Elyse Borisko finished second at 19:40, while Addie Tousley of Bethesda-Chevy Chase finished third at 20:10 and Shelby Meadowcroft of Hereford finished fourth at 20:32.
The strong showing by Chetelat at the state championship meet concluded a highly successful season for Decatur's top female harrier. She won the Bayside Conference championship and finished second two weeks ago in the Class 3A-East qualifying event to earn a spot in the state championship meet. Neither of Decatur's cross-country squads qualified for the team competition at states this year, making Chetelat the lone representative for the school at the event.

ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) ? A day after the Anaheim Ducks wrapped up the most impressive regular season in franchise history, they were eager to forget all about it.
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) ? A day after the Anaheim Ducks wrapped up the most impressive regular season in franchise history, they were eager to forget all about it.
The Ducks realize their impressive record and Pacific Division title won't matter much to the Detroit Red Wings, who had to scramble just to make the postseason while Anaheim only needed to coast. That's why Detroit is a fashionable pick for a first-round upset ? and why the Ducks are eager to prove they belong in their spot atop the standings.
"We can use it as fuel," Anaheim captain Ryan Getzlaf said after practice Monday. "It's something that you've got to go out and prove and earn, and winning in the playoffs is how you earn everything in this league. Anyone can win during the regular season. It's this time of year that you've got to prove yourself."
Game 1 is Tuesday night at Honda Center.
Second-seeded Anaheim realizes it drew a daunting first-round matchup with postseason-tested Detroit, which has given trouble to Teemu Selanne and his teammates for years.
They franchises are meeting in the playoffs for the sixth time in 16 years. The Ducks beat Detroit along the way to both of the club's two Stanley Cup finals appearances in 2003 and 2007, but the Red Wings won the most recent meeting, knocking off the Ducks in 2009 in a series featuring several current players on both teams.
"We all know this is going to be a hard series, but it's time to enjoy this ride," the 42-year-old Selanne said.
After missing the playoffs in two of the past three seasons, the Ducks roared out of the gate in this lockout-shortened year and surged to the Western Conference's second seed and the NHL's third-best record at 30-12-6, the best season in franchise history by winning percentage ? even better than the 2007 Stanley Cup champion juggernaut.
So why aren't the Ducks expected to roll over Detroit, which barely squeaked into the postseason on the final day of the regular season?
Because that's not how hockey usually works ? and even the Ducks acknowledge that despite their talent, they've got more to prove in their return to the playoffs.
"This team here, we've got the opportunity to do something special," said Ducks defenseman Sheldon Souray, who hasn't been in the NHL postseason since 2006 with Montreal. "That hasn't been done here for a while. It's fun to get to this point. Everything picks up, and we can feel it in here."
The Red Wings begin their final postseason way out West before moving to the cozy Eastern Conference next season, but much about the matchup seems favorable to Detroit, which won two of three against Anaheim in the regular season. The Red Wings took back-to-back games at Honda Center immediately after the Ducks' cathartic, come-from-behind win over NHL-best Chicago on March 20.
"It's good to see that we're playing our best hockey when we have to, and hopefully it keeps going," Detroit defenseman Kyle Quincey said. "It's good to see the boys scoring and the defense coming together, and Jimmy (Howard) is playing great. I think everything is firing at the same time."
Ducks coach Bruce Boudreau isn't flinching in his return to the postseason spotlight, which hasn't always treated him well. The respected coach led the Washington Capitals to four straight Southeast Division titles and a Presidents' Trophy from 2008-11, but won just two playoff series in four years, never getting out of the second round.
Boudreau has transformed the Ducks into an NHL power in just two truncated seasons since late November 2011, but he realizes it won't mean as much without a good bit of postseason success. He's also wary of the challenges posed by the veteran Red Wings.
"They're the hottest team coming in," Boudreau said. "I think it's very similar to what L.A. was doing last year. They're the guys with experience. They're the guys that have been there before. Of course I would think that people are going to think (the Red Wings) are going to win."
Quincey echoed Boudreau's comparison of Detroit to last season's Kings, who steamrolled from the eighth seed to the title.
The Ducks have been essentially preparing for the playoffs ever since their spectacular 22-3-4 start to the year pretty much guaranteed a spot. Anaheim went just 7-5-1 in April, resting some regulars and getting almost everybody healthy, including defenseman Luca Sbisa, who practiced at full speed Monday.
Yet the Ducks' boundless ability has been obvious all season while they finally achieved the success long expected from their talented roster.
"I think it was actually good timing," Anaheim goalie Jonas Hiller said. "You can't have a high all the way through. If you've got to have a few bad games, you don't want to have them in the playoffs. We got them out of the way, and I think we're playing better now."
Boudreau hasn't revealed whether Hiller or Viktor Fasth will start Game 1 for the Ducks, only saying: "They know."
Anaheim used both goalies interchangeably all season, with Hiller getting much-needed relief from Fasth, the first-year NHL pro who won his first eight decisions. Both goalies won 15 games apiece, with nearly identical statistics and playing time.
The Red Wings have no such choice to make. Howard had another standout season, winning 21 games while leading the NHL with five shutouts and finishing ninth in goals-against average (2.13) and save percentage (.923).
"They're big, they're physical, they play hard, and they're really deep at the forward position," said Howard, who has never led Detroit past the second round. "We're going to have our work cut out for us, but at the same time, it's going to be a lot of fun to go out there in sort of a different role than just getting to the playoffs."

Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, Vol. 2, by Edward Gibbon, [1781], at sacred-texts.com
The martial impatience of Julian urged him to take the field in the beginning of the spring; and he dismissed, with contempt and reproach, the senate of Antioch, who accompanied the emperor beyond the limits of their own territory, to which he was resolved never to return. After a laborious march of two days, 29 he halted on the third at Beraea, or Aleppo, where he had the mortification of finding a senate almost entirely Christian; who received with cold and formal demonstrations of respect the eloquent sermon of the apostle of paganism. The son of one of the most illustrious citizens of Beraea, who had embraced, either from interest or conscience, the religion of the emperor, was disinherited by his angry parent. The father and the son were invited to the Imperial table. Julian, placing himself between them, attempted, without success, to inculcate the lesson and example of toleration; supported, with affected calmness, the indiscreet zeal of the aged Christian, who seemed to forget the sentiments of nature, and the duty of a subject; and at length, turning towards the afflicted youth, "Since you have lost a father," said he, "for my sake, it is incumbent on me to supply his place." 30 The emperor was received in a manner much more agreeable to his wishes at Batnae, *_0060 a small town pleasantly seated in a grove of cypresses, about twenty miles from the city of Hierapolis. The solemn rites of sacrifice were decently prepared by the inhabitants of Batnae, who seemed attached to the worship of their tutelar deities, Apollo and Jupiter; but the serious piety of Julian was offended by the tumult of their applause; and he too clearly discerned, that the smoke which arose from their altars was the incense of flattery, rather than of devotion. The ancient and magnificent temple which had sanctified, for so many ages, the city of Hierapolis, 31 no longer subsisted; and the consecrated wealth, which afforded a liberal maintenance to more than three hundred priests, might hasten its downfall. Yet Julian enjoyed the satisfaction of embracing a philosopher and a friend, whose religious firmness had withstood the pressing and repeated solicitations of Constantius and Gallus, as often as those princes lodged at his house, in their passage through Hierapolis. In the hurry of military preparation, and the careless confidence of a familiar correspondence, the zeal of Julian appears to have been lively and uniform. He had now undertaken an important and difficult war; and the anxiety of the event rendered him still more attentive to observe and register the most trifling presages, from which, according to the rules of divination, any knowledge of futurity could be derived. 32 He informed Libanius of his progress as far as Hierapolis, by an elegant epistle, 33 which displays the facility of his genius, and his tender friendship for the sophist of Antioch.
Hierapolis, *_0061 situate almost on the banks of the Euphrates, 34 had been appointed for the general rendezvous of the Roman troops, who immediately passed the great river on a bridge of boats, which was previously constructed. 35 If the inclinations of Julian had been similar to those of his predecessor, he might have wasted the active and important season of the year in the circus of Samosata or in the churches of Edessa. But as the warlike emperor, instead of Constantius, had chosen Alexander for his model, he advanced without delay to Carrhae, 36 a very ancient city of Mesopotamia, at the distance of fourscore miles from Hierapolis. The temple of the Moon attracted the devotion of Julian; but the halt of a few days was principally employed in completing the immense preparations of the Persian war. The secret of the expedition had hitherto remained in his own breast; but as Carrhae is the point of separation of the two great roads, he could no longer conceal whether it was his design to attack the dominions of Sapor on the side of the Tigris, or on that of the Euphrates. The emperor detached an army of thirty thousand men, under the command of his kinsman Procopius, and of Sebastian, who had been duke of Egypt. They were ordered to direct their march towards Nisibis, and to secure the frontier from the desultory incursions of the enemy, before they attempted the passage of the Tigris. Their subsequent operations were left to the discretion of the generals; but Julian expected, that after wasting with fire and sword the fertile districts of Media and Adiabene, they might arrive under the walls of Ctesiphon at the same time that he himself, advancing with equal steps along the banks of the Euphrates, should besiege the capital of the Persian monarchy. The success of this well-concerted plan depended, in a great measure, on the powerful and ready assistance of the king of Armenia, who, without exposing the safety of his own dominions, might detach an army of four thousand horse, and twenty thousand foot, to the assistance of the Romans. 37 But the feeble Arsaces Tiranus, 38 king of Armenia, had degenerated still more shamefully than his father Chosroes, from the manly virtues of the great Tiridates; and as the pusillanimous monarch was averse to any enterprise of danger and glory, he could disguise his timid indolence by the more decent excuses of religion and gratitude. He expressed a pious attachment to the memory of Constantius, from whose hands he had received in marriage Olympias, the daughter of the praefect Ablavius; and the alliance of a female, who had been educated as the destined wife of the emperor Constans, exalted the dignity of a Barbarian king. 39 Tiranus professed the Christian religion; he reigned over a nation of Christians; and he was restrained, by every principle of conscience and interest, from contributing to the victory, which would consummate the ruin of the church. The alienated mind of Tiranus was exasperated by the indiscretion of Julian, who treated the king of Armenia as his slave, and as the enemy of the gods. The haughty and threatening style of the Imperial mandates 40 awakened the secret indignation of a prince, who, in the humiliating state of dependence, was still conscious of his royal descent from the Arsacides, the lords of the East, and the rivals of the Roman power. !_0061
The military dispositions of Julian were skilfully contrived to deceive the spies and to divert the attention of Sapor. The legions appeared to direct their march towards Nisibis and the Tigris. On a sudden they wheeled to the right; traversed the level and naked plain of Carrhae; and reached, on the third day, the banks of the Euphrates, where the strong town of Nicephorium, or Callinicum, had been founded by the Macedonian kings. From thence the emperor pursued his march, above ninety miles, along the winding stream of the Euphrates, till, at length, about one month after his departure from Antioch, he discovered the towers of Circesium, *_0062 the extreme limit of the Roman dominions. The army of Julian, the most numerous that any of the Caesars had ever led against Persia, consisted of sixty-five thousand effective and well-disciplined soldiers. The veteran bands of cavalry and infantry, of Romans and Barbarians, had been selected from the different provinces; and a just preeminence of loyalty and valor was claimed by the hardy Gauls, who guarded the throne and person of their beloved prince. A formidable body of Scythian auxiliaries had been transported from another climate, and almost from another world, to invade a distant country, of whose name and situation they were ignorant. The love of rapine and war allured to the Imperial standard several tribes of Saracens, or roving Arabs, whose service Julian had commanded, while he sternly refuse the payment of the accustomed subsidies. The broad channel of the Euphrates 41 was crowded by a fleet of eleven hundred ships, destined to attend the motions, and to satisfy the wants, of the Roman army. The military strength of the fleet was composed of fifty armed galleys; and these were accompanied by an equal number of flat-bottomed boats, which might occasionally be connected into the form of temporary bridges. The rest of the ships, partly constructed of timber, and partly covered with raw hides, were laden with an almost inexhaustible supply of arms and engines, of utensils and provisions. The vigilant humanity of Julian had embarked a very large magazine of vinegar and biscuit for the use of the soldiers, but he prohibited the indulgence of wine; and rigorously stopped a long string of superfluous camels that attempted to follow the rear of the army. The River Chaboras falls into the Euphrates at Circesium; 42 and as soon as the trumpet gave the signal of march, the Romans passed the little stream which separated two mighty and hostile empires. The custom of ancient discipline required a military oration; and Julian embraced every opportunity of displaying his eloquence. He animated the impatient and attentive legions by the example of the inflexible courage and glorious triumphs of their ancestors. He excited their resentment by a lively picture of the insolence of the Persians; and he exhorted them to imitate his firm resolution, either to extirpate that perfidious nation, or to devote his life in the cause of the republic. The eloquence of Julian was enforced by a donative of one hundred and thirty pieces of silver to every soldier; and the bridge of the Chaboras was instantly cut away, to convince the troops that they must place their hopes of safety in the success of their arms. Yet the prudence of the emperor induced him to secure a remote frontier, perpetually exposed to the inroads of the hostile Arabs. A detachment of four thousand men was left at Circesium, which completed, to the number of ten thousand, the regular garrison of that important fortress. 43
From the moment that the Romans entered the enemy's country, 44 the country of an active and artful enemy, the order of march was disposed in three columns. 45 The strength of the infantry, and consequently of the whole army was placed in the centre, under the peculiar command of their master-general Victor. On the right, the brave Nevitta led a column of several legions along the banks of the Euphrates, and almost always in sight of the fleet. The left flank of the army was protected by the column of cavalry. Hormisdas and Arinthaeus were appointed generals of the horse; and the singular adventures of Hormisdas 46 are not undeserving of our notice. He was a Persian prince, of the royal race of the Sassanides, who, in the troubles of the minority of Sapor, had escaped from prison to the hospitable court of the great Constantine. Hormisdas at first excited the compassion, and at length acquired the esteem, of his new masters; his valor and fidelity raised him to the military honors of the Roman service; and though a Christian, he might indulge the secret satisfaction of convincing his ungrateful country, than at oppressed subject may prove the most dangerous enemy. Such was the disposition of the three principal columns. The front and flanks of the army were covered by Lucilianus with a flying detachment of fifteen hundred light-armed soldiers, whose active vigilance observed the most distant signs, and conveyed the earliest notice, of any hostile approach. Dagalaiphus, and Secundinus duke of Osrhoene, conducted the troops of the rear-guard; the baggage securely proceeded in the intervals of the columns; and the ranks, from a motive either of use or ostentation, were formed in such open order, that the whole line of march extended almost ten miles. The ordinary post of Julian was at the head of the centre column; but as he preferred the duties of a general to the state of a monarch, he rapidly moved, with a small escort of light cavalry, to the front, the rear, the flanks, wherever his presence could animate or protect the march of the Roman army. The country which they traversed from the Chaboras, to the cultivated lands of Assyria, may be considered as a part of the desert of Arabia, a dry and barren waste, which could never be improved by the most powerful arts of human industry. Julian marched over the same ground which had been trod above seven hundred years before by the footsteps of the younger Cyrus, and which is described by one of the companions of his expedition, the sage and heroic Xenophon. 47 "The country was a plain throughout, as even as the sea, and full of wormwood; and if any other kind of shrubs or reeds grew there, they had all an aromatic smell, but no trees could be seen. Bustards and ostriches, antelopes and wild asses, 48 appeared to be the only inhabitants of the desert; and the fatigues of the march were alleviated by the amusements of the chase." The loose sand of the desert was frequently raised by the wind into clouds of dust; and a great number of the soldiers of Julian, with their tents, were suddenly thrown to the ground by the violence of an unexpected hurricane.
The sandy plains of Mesopotamia were abandoned to the antelopes and wild asses of the desert; but a variety of populous towns and villages were pleasantly situated on the banks of the Euphrates, and in the islands which are occasionally formed by that river. The city of Annah, or Anatho, 49 the actual residence of an Arabian emir, is composed of two long streets, which enclose, within a natural fortification, a small island in the midst, and two fruitful spots on either side, of the Euphrates. The warlike inhabitants of Anatho showed a disposition to stop the march of a Roman emperor; till they were diverted from such fatal presumption by the mild exhortations of Prince Hormisdas, and the approaching terrors of the fleet and army. They implored, and experienced, the clemency of Julian, who transplanted the people to an advantageous settlement, near Chalcis in Syria, and admitted Pusaeus, the governor, to an honorable rank in his service and friendship. But the impregnable fortress of Thilutha could scorn the menace of a siege; and the emperor was obliged to content himself with an insulting promise, that, when he had subdued the interior provinces of Persia, Thilutha would no longer refuse to grace the triumph of the emperor. The inhabitants of the open towns, unable to resist, and unwilling to yield, fled with precipitation; and their houses, filled with spoil and provisions, were occupied by the soldiers of Julian, who massacred, without remorse and without punishment, some defenceless women. During the march, the Surenas, *_0063 or Persian general, and Malek Rodosaces, the renowned emir of the tribe of Gassan, 50 incessantly hovered round the army; every straggler was intercepted; every detachment was attacked; and the valiant Hormisdas escaped with some difficulty from their hands. But the Barbarians were finally repulsed; the country became every day less favorable to the operations of cavalry; and when the Romans arrived at Macepracta, they perceived the ruins of the wall, which had been constructed by the ancient kings of Assyria, to secure their dominions from the incursions of the Medes. These preliminaries of the expedition of Julian appear to have employed about fifteen days; and we may compute near three hundred miles from the fortress of Circesium to the wall of Macepracta. 51
The fertile province of Assyria, 52 which stretched beyond the Tigris, as far as the mountains of Media, 53 extended about four hundred miles from the ancient wall of Macepracta, to the territory of Basra, where the united streams of the Euphrates and Tigris discharge themselves into the Persian Gulf. 54 The whole country might have claimed the peculiar name of Mesopotamia; as the two rivers, which are never more distant than fifty, approach, between Bagdad and Babylon, within twenty-five miles, of each other. A multitude of artificial canals, dug without much labor in a soft and yielding soil connected the rivers, and intersected the plain of Assyria. The uses of these artificial canals were various and important. They served to discharge the superfluous waters from one river into the other, at the season of their respective inundations. Subdividing themselves into smaller and smaller branches, they refreshed the dry lands, and supplied the deficiency of rain. They facilitated the intercourse of peace and commerce; and, as the dams could be speedily broke down, they armed the despair of the Assyrians with the means of opposing a sudden deluge to the progress of an invading army. To the soil and climate of Assyria, nature had denied some of her choicest gifts, the vine, the olive, and the fig-tree; *_0064 but the food which supports the life of man, and particularly wheat and barley, were produced with inexhaustible fertility; and the husbandman, who committed his seed to the earth, was frequently rewarded with an increase of two, or even of three, hundred. The face of the country was interspersed with groves of innumerable palm-trees; 55 and the diligent natives celebrated, either in verse or prose, the three hundred and sixty uses to which the trunk, the branches, the leaves, the juice, and the fruit, were skilfully applied. Several manufactures, especially those of leather and linen, employed the industry of a numerous people, and afforded valuable materials for foreign trade; which appears, however, to have been conducted by the hands of strangers. Babylon had been converted into a royal park; but near the ruins of the ancient capital, new cities had successively arisen, and the populousness of the country was displayed in the multitude of towns and villages, which were built of bricks dried in the sun, and strongly cemented with bitumen; the natural and peculiar production of the Babylonian soil. While the successors of Cyrus reigned over Asia, the province of Syria alone maintained, during a third part of the year, the luxurious plenty of the table and household of the Great King. Four considerable villages were assigned for the subsistence of his Indian dogs; eight hundred stallions, and sixteen thousand mares, were constantly kept, at the expense of the country, for the royal stables; and as the daily tribute, which was paid to the satrap, amounted to one English bushe of silver, we may compute the annual revenue of Assyria at more than twelve hundred thousand pounds sterling. 56
29 From Antioch to Litarbe, on the territory of Chalcis, the road, over hills and through morasses, was extremely bad; and the loose stones were cemented only with sand, (Julian. epist. xxvii.) It is singular enough that the Romans should have neglected the great communication between Antioch and the Euphrates. See Wesseling Itinerar. p. 190 Bergier, Hist des Grands Chemins, tom. ii. p. 100
30 Julian alludes to this incident, (epist. xxvii.,) which is more distinctly related by Theodoret, (l. iii. c. 22.) The intolerant spirit of the father is applauded by Tillemont, (Hist. des Empereurs, tom. iv. p. 534.) and even by La Bleterie, (Vie de Julien, p. 413.)
*_0060 This name, of Syriac origin, is found in the Arabic, and means a place in a valley where waters meet. Julian says, the name of the city is Barbaric, the situation Greek. The geographer Abulfeda (tab. Syriac. p. 129, edit. Koehler) speaks of it in a manner to justify the praises of Julian. - St. Martin. Notes to Le Beau, iii. 56. - M.
31 See the curious treatise de Dea Syria, inserted among the works of Lucian, (tom. iii. p. 451-490, edit. Reitz.) The singular appellation of Ninus vetus (Ammian. xiv. 8) might induce a suspicion, that Heirapolis had been the royal seat of the Assyrians.
32 Julian (epist. xxviii.) kept a regular account of all the fortunate omens; but he suppresses the inauspicious signs, which Ammianus (xxiii. 2) has carefully recorded.
33 Julian. epist. xxvii. p. 399-402.
*_0061 Or Bambyce, now Bambouch; Manbedj Arab., or Maboug, Syr. It was twenty-four Roman miles from the Euphrates. - M.
34 I take the earliest opportunity of acknowledging my obligations to M. d'Anville, for his recent geography of the Euphrates and Tigris, (Paris, 1780, in 4to.,) which particularly illustrates the expedition of Julian.
35 There are three passages within a few miles of each other; 1. Zeugma, celebrated by the ancients; 2. Bir, frequented by the moderns; and, 3. The bridge of Menbigz, or Hierapolis, at the distance of four parasangs from the city.
Djisr Manbedj is the same with the ancient Zeugma. St. Martin, iii. 58 - M.
36 Haran, or Carrhae, was the ancient residence of the Sabaeans, and of Abraham. See the Index Geographicus of Schultens, (ad calcem Vit. Saladin.,) a work from which I have obtained much Oriental knowledge concerning the ancient and modern geography of Syria and the adjacent countries.
On an inedited medal in the collection of the late M. Tochon. of the Academy of Inscriptions, it is read Xappan. St. Martin. iii 60 - M.
37 See Xenophon. Cyropaed. l. iii. p. 189, edit. Hutchinson. Artavasdes might have supplied Marc Antony with 16,000 horse, armed and disciplined after the Parthian manner, (Plutarch, in M. Antonio. tom. v. p. 117.)
38 Moses of Chorene (Hist. Armeniac. l. iii. c. 11, p. 242) fixes his accession (A. D. 354) to the 17th year of Constantius.
Arsaces Tiranus, or Diran, had ceased to reign twenty- five years before, in 337. The intermediate changes in Armenia, and the character of this Arsaces, the son of Diran, are traced by M. St. Martin, at considerable length, in his supplement to Le Beau, ii. 208-242. As long as his Grecian queen Olympias maintained her influence, Arsaces was faithful to the Roman and Christian alliance. On the accession of Julian, the same influence made his fidelity to waver; but Olympias having been poisoned in the sacramental bread by the agency of Pharandcem, the former wife of Arsaces, another change took place in Armenian politics unfavorable to the Christian interest. The patriarch Narses retired from the impious court to a safe seclusion. Yet Pharandsem was equally hostile to the Persian influence, and Arsaces began to support with vigor the cause of Julian. He made an inroad into the Persian dominions with a body of Rans and Alans as auxiliaries; wasted Aderbidgan and Sapor, who had been defeated near Tauriz, was engaged in making head against his troops in Persarmenia, at the time of the death of Julian. Such is M. St. Martin's view, (ii. 276, et sqq.,) which rests on the Armenian historians, Faustos of Byzantium, and Mezrob the biographer of the Partriarch Narses. In the history of Armenia by Father Chamitch, and translated by Avdall, Tiran is still king of Armenia, at the time of Julian's death. F. Chamitch follows Moses of Chorene, The authority of Gibbon. - M.
39 Ammian. xx. 11. Athanasius (tom. i. p. 856) says, in general terms, that Constantius gave to his brother's widow, an expression more suitable to a Roman than a Christian.
40 Ammianus (xxiii. 2) uses a word much too soft for the occasion, monuerat. Muratori (Fabricius, Bibliothec. Graec. tom. vii. p. 86) has published an epistle from Julian to the satrap Arsaces; fierce, vulgar, and (though it might deceive Sozomen, l. vi. c. 5) most probably spurious. La Bleterie (Hist. de Jovien, tom. ii. p. 339) translates and rejects it. Note: St. Martin considers it genuine: the Armenian writers mention such a letter, iii. 37. - M.
!_0061 Arsaces did not abandon the Roman alliance, but gave it only feeble support. St. Martin, iii. 41 - M.
*_0062 Kirkesia the Carchemish of the Scriptures. - M.
41 Latissimum flumen Euphraten artabat. Ammian. xxiii. 3 Somewhat higher, at the fords of Thapsacus, the river is four stadia or 800 yards, almost half an English mile, broad. (Xenophon, Anabasis, l. i. p. 41, edit. Hutchinson, with Foster's Observations, p. 29, &c., in the 2d volume of Spelman's translation.) If the breadth of the Euphrates at Bir and Zeugma is no more than 130 yards, (Voyages de Niebuhr, tom. ii. p. 335,) the enormous difference must chiefly arise from the depth of the channel.
42 Munimentum tutissimum et fabre politum, Abora (the Orientals aspirate Chaboras or Chabour) et Euphrates ambiunt flumina, velut spatium insulare fingentes. Ammian. xxiii. 5.
43 The enterprise and armament of Julian are described by himself, (Epist. xxvii.,) Ammianus Marcellinus, (xxiii. 3, 4, 5,) Libanius, (Orat. Parent. c. 108, 109, p. 332, 333,) Zosimus, (l. iii. p. 160, 161, 162) Sozomen, (l. vi. c. l,) and John Malala, (tom. ii. p. 17.)
44 Before he enters Persia, Ammianus copiously describes (xxiii. p. 396-419, edit. Gronov. in 4to.) the eighteen great provinces, (as far as the Seric, or Chinese frontiers,) which were subject to the Sassanides.
45 Ammianus (xxiv. 1) and Zosimus (l. iii. p. 162, 163) rately expressed the order of march.
46 The adventures of Hormisdas are related with some mixture of fable, (Zosimus, l. ii. p. 100-102; Tillemont, Hist. des Empereurs tom. iv. p. 198.) It is almost impossible that he should be the brother (frater germanus) of an eldest and posthumous child: nor do I recollect that Ammianus ever gives him that title.
Note: St. Martin conceives that he was an elder brother by another mother who had several children, ii. 24 - M.
47 See the first book of the Anabasis, p. 45, 46. This pleasing work is original and authentic. Yet Xenophon's memory, perhaps many years after the expedition, has sometimes betrayed him; and the distances which he marks are often larger than either a soldier or a geographer will allow.
48 Mr. Spelman, the English translator of the Anabasis, (vol. i. p. 51,) confounds the antelope with the roebuck, and the wild ass with the zebra.
49 See Voyages de Tavernier, part i. l. iii. p. 316, and more especially Viaggi di Pietro della Valle, tom. i. lett. xvii. p. 671, &c. He was ignorant of the old name and condition of Annah. Our blind travellers seldom possess any previous knowledge of the countries which they visit. Shaw and Tournefort deserve an honorable exception.
*_0063 This is not a title, but the name of a great Persian family. St. Martin, iii. 79. - M.
50 Famosi nominis latro, says Ammianus; a high encomium for an Arab. The tribe of Gassan had settled on the edge of Syria, and reigned some time in Damascus, under a dynasty of thirty-one kings, or emirs, from the time of Pompey to that of the Khalif Omar. D'Herbelot, Bibliotheque Orientale, p. 360. Pococke, Specimen Hist. Arabicae, p. 75-78. The name of Rodosaces does not appear in the list.
Note: Rodosaces-malek is king. St. Martin considers that Gibbon has fallen into an error in bringing the tribe of Gassan to the Euphrates. In Ammianus it is Assan. M. St. Martin would read Massanitarum, the same with the Mauzanitae of Malala. - M.
51 See Ammianus, (xxiv. 1, 2,) Libanius, (Orat. Parental. c. 110, 111, p. 334,) Zosimus, (l. iii. p. 164-168.)
Note: This Syriac or Chaldaic has relation to its position; it easily bears the signification of the division of the waters. M. St. M. considers it the Missice of Pliny, v. 26. St. Martin, iii. 83. - M.
52 The description of Assyria, is furnished by Herodotus, (l. i. c. 192, &c.,) who sometimes writes for children, and sometimes for philosophers; by Strabo, (l. xvi. p. 1070-1082,) and by Ammianus, (l.xxiii. c. 6.) The most useful of the modern travellers are Tavernier, (part i. l. ii. p. 226-258,) Otter, (tom. ii. p. 35-69, and 189-224,) and Niebuhr, (tom. ii. p. 172-288.) Yet I much regret that the Irak Arabi of Abulfeda has not been translated.
53 Ammianus remarks, that the primitive Assyria, which comprehended Ninus, (Nineveh,) and Arbela, had assumed the more recent and peculiar appellation of Adiabene; and he seems to fix Teredon, Vologesia, and Apollonia, as the extreme cities of the actual province of Assyria.
54 The two rivers unite at Apamea, or Corna, (one hundred miles from the Persian Gulf,) into the broad stream of the Pasitigris, or Shutul- Arab. The Euphrates formerly reached the sea by a separate channel, which was obstructed and diverted by the citizens of Orchoe, about twenty miles to the south-east of modern Basra. (D'Anville, in the Memoires de l'Acad. des Inscriptions, tom.xxx. p. 171-191.)
*_0064 We are informed by Mr. Gibbon, that nature has denied to the soil an climate of Assyria some of her choicest gifts, the vine, the olive, and the fig-tree. This might have been the case ir the age of Ammianus Marcellinus, but it is not so at the present day; and it is a curious fact that the grape, the olive, and the fig, are the most common fruits in the province, and may be seen in every garden. Macdonald Kinneir, Geogr. Mem. on Persia 239 - M.
55 The learned Kaempfer, as a botanist, an antiquary, and a traveller, has exhausted (Amoenitat. Exoticae, Fasicul. iv. p. 660-764) the whole subject of palm-trees.
56 Assyria yielded to the Persian satrap an Artaba of silver each day. The well-known proportion of weights and measures (see Bishop Hooper's elaborate Inquiry,) the specific gravity of water and silver, and the value of that metal, will afford, after a short process, the annual revenue which I have stated. Yet the Great King received no more than 1000 Euboic, or Tyrian, talents (252,000l.) from Assyria. The comparison of two passages in Herodotus, (l. i. c. 192, l. iii. c. 89-96) reveals an important difference between the gross, and the net, revenue of Persia; the sums paid by the province, and the gold or silver deposited in the royal treasure. The monarch might annually save three millions six hundred thousand pounds, of the seventeen or eighteen millions raised upon the people.

Glassdoor, which compiles compensation data on tens of thousands of companies, is getting its very own payday. The Sausalito, California-based company, led by former Expedia executive Robert Hohman and backed by Zillow co-founder Rich Barton, today is announcing $20 million in new funding from DAG Ventures; Benchmark Capital, Sutter Hill Ventures and Battery Ventures. Total funding now stands at $42.2 million.
The company also announced that it has more than 14 million registered users, with a new user signing up for the community every two seconds.
Barton, who worked with Hohman at Expedia, has used Glassdoor as a classic example of a company that plays into his investment thesis of unlocking data that had previously been difficult to obtain. That's a philosophy that Barton has used successfully at Zillow in the online real estate business.
Glassdoor collects salary information for individual employers, pitting it against the likes of Seattle-based PayScale.
Glassdoor is growing rapid, with 13 million unique visitors checking out the salary information each month. Interestingly, that's a bigger user base than what Zillow had achieved at the four-year juncture. (Zillow's unique user count stood at 33.5 million for the second quarter).
"Glassdoor, fueled by increasing workplace transparency, is changing the way people search for jobs and the way employers recruit and retain top talent," said Hohman in a press release. "Thanks to DAG Ventures and our esteemed roster of venture capital partners, this latest round of funding will help us build even more products and resources for all those in the employment space."
Glassdoor plans to use the new cash for international expansion and new products.

What's up guys? Callan here.
by, 11th March 2013 at 04:38 AM (321030 Views)
So my last blog post, where I talk to myself about how terrible my life is, was from 2008. I figure it's time to once again put it all down in writing. See, this is my life right here, a little neglected journal documenting my lowest and highest points. Sometimes, we're just chilling out in midfield though. Let's pick it back up from where we've left off. In '08 I had a pretty terrible time. I've made a full recovery, but perhaps I was a little too ambitious once I got back on my feet. Instead of going back to school I came to the awful realization that I was broke. Who the hell has time to go to school when we've got bills to pay? Anyway, sometime after working shitty jobs here and there fighting through my self-loathing, I said fuck it all. So I made a decision, walked into my local Armed Forces recruiting office and said, "Hey there guy! Sign me up!" Worst decision ever. It's not all bad, I've met a lot of cool dudes in the Navy, as well as a lot of complete idiots and assholes. We go through some shitty experiences, stay up really late most nights working on some bullshit that in the big picture doesn't really matter. I get to stand a lot of watch, where I frequent a few websites where I bitch and complain about normal things like a human being does. But really, secretly, without anyone that I know outside of here knowing... I love it here. Everything is done for you, I don't have a care in the world. I have bitches cook my food, even though it sucks. I have bitches provide housing for me, people do my taxes. Yeah, when I get out at the end of the year it's going to suck. I'm going to have to relearn to take care of myself. I haven't cooked a meal in a long ass time. That'll be fun. So personally, I don't have much to speak about. I don't really talk to my father much anymore. I don't hold any grudges on him, but I don't have any specific reasons to keep in touch with him. We just don't get along well, and it's better to have limited contact than to be in contact and end up arguing about stupid things. My last real relationship ended almost 2 years ago. Fuck I'm tired of being alone. People are not meant to live this way, let me get that straight. We need someone at our backs, someone that is going to stick through hard times and be there to share the high life when it comes around. I've had a trainwreck of relations in the past. But I'm really ready to find someone to settle down with. It's just gotta be the right person, I'm not looking to fuck around anymore. I've got a couple prospects, I'm not going to lie. The idea that I've mentally labeled them as prospects though just worries me that I'm not actually taking what I really want seriously enough. The fact that there is a "couple" of prospects doesn't bode well either. So let's talk about the candidates, and what the decision would mean for my life. Before we get into it, let's talk about my current post-naval service plans. I'm stationed in Pearl Harbor, HI, living in Honolulu. I hate it here. It's isolated, too hot, and I'm not even a beach person. I want to move to Seattle for that big city life, where that dotcom industry is booming and the weather is awesome by my standards. Rain? I love rain. Now, finally... I'm going back to school. I've put this one off long enough. I'm pushing myself toward a career in journalism and broadcasting. I feel I'd do pretty well there, considering I love writing and I have a knack for broadcasting thanks to my experience in the Navy. Let's get back to those options now. There's a girl I went to high school with, we'll call her Jen. Recently Jen and I have reconnected, she's newly single and made the stretch to get in touch with me. When she did, she had an interesting question as to why we never dated, making a specific indication that she was sad we didn't ever try. We had a really nice conversation afterwards and I've been chatting with her for a few hours every week since, including a really nice phone convo where we really clicked. I feel pretty happy when I'm talking to her, yet if I was to make anything serious of it, it wouldn't be until later this year when I have an opportunity to go home. If it becomes serious, there goes my plans to move to Seattle as well. The other girl, is strangely a female stationed with me on my ship. While this option has a bit more immediate possibility of working, the previous option overall has me cautious on initiating anything. We're going to call her Kim. Kim is a really pretty girl, she's from the Bronx, so she makes fun of my Jersey accent a lot. I can tell she's doing it flirtatiously though. We had a really nice opportunity to get to know each other a few weeks ago while we were stuck out at a gun range. We have a lot in common it turns out, mostly talking about how awesome the tv show "How I met your mother" is. I feel like my feelings for her might be a bit more forced than I want to believe, but regardless there is a fairly solid connection here. I'm not sure how a relationship with Kim would affect my current plans. So anyway, let's talk about real stuff. Let's talk about those US budget issues and how they're really affecting the military and DOD. It's bad. We're at a point where the ship picks and chooses what it wants to fix. With a growing list of equipment causalities piling up, it's getting harder to choose. The money just isn't there, and schedules are starting to be pushed off to the right. This isn't terrible I suppose for us lowly guys on the totem pole, meaning that we're just going to sit around sometimes. But for the few of us who see the big picture, we know that when that money starts coming back in, shit's going to get crazy. We're talking condensed schedules like a motherfucker. That means crazy hours, not getting sleep, and working harder than we've probably ever worked before. But yeah, we're some superhuman species so we'll get it done. Well, that's enough rambling for now. Hopefully someone is able to make sense of this crap for me. Seems like when I write anything recently it just comes out as if I just vomited them onto a piece of paper. Guess I've eaten something bad.

>Some murmurs occur strictly from increased flow. For example, pregnant women often have a functional murmur due to a greater blood volume and hyperdynamic metabolism; these are benign. Other murmurs are due to damaged heart valves and represent significant pathology. Damaged valves may either restrict blood flow (stenotic lesions) or allow blood to flow back into the chamber of the heart from which it had just exited (regurgitant lesions). Heart valves can be damaged due to infection, trauma, heart muscle damage (myocardial infarction), or an individual may be born with a structurally abnormal heart valve.
>Fitness and Diving Issue
>Stenotic lesions, such as aortic and mitral stenosis, restrict efficient blood flow and may have serious consequences during exercise. Significant aortic stenosis places an individual at greater risk for sudden cardiac death while exercising; it is a contraindication for diving. Mitral stenosis also limits the response to exercise and, over a period of time, can result in congestive heart failure.
>Regurgitant lesions pose somewhat less of a risk during diving. Over a period of years, the heart will be taxed by the extra work necessary to pump blood, and heart failure may be the long-term result. Divers with these types of heart valve problems may safely participate in diving if they have no symptoms and have normal left ventricular structure and function, as evidenced by an echocardiogram.
>For more information on cardiovascular conditions, see the complete article by Dr. James L. Caruso on Cardiovascular Fitness and Diving from the July/August 1999 issue of Alert Diver.

After accident, you're owed for all of your 'loss'
Q. My family was involved in a car accident. It was the other driver's fault. We are attempting to settle but the insurance company only wants to pay for medical bills and damage to our car, even though we went through a lot of stress and other financial loss. What can I do to have them compensate us?
A. When someone causes an accident, they are responsible under an area of law known as tort law. The objective of tort law is to place you back in the position you were before the accident. This means compensating you for whatever loss you incurred as a result of the accident. Basically, there are two types of damages, economic and non-economic. Economic damages include all of your financial loss, such as the value of the car and medical bills. It sounds like the insurance company is offering to compensate you for this loss. You say you have "other financial loss," and you should let them know you expect to be compensated for that loss. For example, you may have had some other personal property in the car that was damaged, or lost wages. Most insurance companies will compensate you for this type of loss once you give them proof of the amount.
The law also allows you to recover non-economic loss, such as pain and suffering and mental anguish. In my opinion, however, recovering for your "stress" may be very difficult. Recovering damages for mental anguish or pain and suffering in Texas can be difficult. You generally need an extreme situation. An example might be when you are receiving psychiatric care, or taking pain pills and seeing a doctor. You usually must show that the stress caused a substantial disruption in your daily routine. If the insurance company refuses to offer compensation for your stress and you feel you are entitled to it, you will need to speak with a personal injury attorney to assist you. Be sure to ask what it will cost before signing anything. You might end up with less money than you have been offered.
Q. My friend got a three-day eviction notice last week. Doesn't he have 30 days to vacate, or can the manger make him leave after the three days? He is afraid all his possessions will be put out on the street.
A. If your friend has a lease, he cannot be evicted until the end of the lease term. Without a lease for a specific period of time, he would be considered a month-to-month tenant. With a lease, he gets the notice provided for in the lease, usually 30 to 60 days, before the end of the lease. If he is a month-to-month tenant, he is entitled to 30 days notice.
If he breaks the lease, however, for example by not paying rent, he can be immediately evicted with three-day notice. If he doesn't leave, the landlord can go to court and have him and his property removed from the apartment. This process usually takes about two weeks. The landlord does not have the right to just throw him out. Look at the landlord tenant material on my Web site for much more information, www.peopleslawyer.net.Q. Can a collection agency sue me for non-payment of a credit card debt that is more than three years old? Can they keep on calling me at work, even after I tell them to stop? I am afraid I will be fired.
A. Under federal law, the company must stop calling you at work once it knows your employer prohibits such calls. You should notify them of this when they call and follow up with a letter, sent by certified mail, so that you will be able to prove they know that your employer prohibits such calls. If they continue to call, they are violating the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Let them know you know about this law.
Under Texas law, they can file suit for this type of debt up to four years after you defaulted.

These just got in yesterday. They look freakin' awesome! A giant big thank you to our sponsors from Byte Me Gaming!
Check 'em out!
All three of us will be sporting these during the convention. I suspect people will get Lodur confused for me many times while we are there.
Don't stare too closely at the person sporting the shirt! Legends say that a person who catches the full blast of the shirt may experience some side effects.
Such as instantaneous attraction to the wearer.
Yes, that's Wyn in the bottom shot.
I think it's about time we all updated our profile shots on the bottom…
