Inbox: Disputed calls, closer candidates and Weeks
Brewers beat reporter Adam McCalvy answers fans' questions
MILWAUKEE -- It's time to revive the Inbox, which will return as a regular feature throughout the summer. It looks like umpires, closers and Rickie Weeks are on your mind at the moment, so let's get right to it:
What do you think about the blown call in last night's game?
-- @mcrfan49 on Twitter
I think we just had the most interesting rulebook-related week in Brewers history, that's what I think.
On Wednesday night, the Brewers had the tying runner at second base and two outs for Martin Maldonado, who hit a tapper in front of the plate that spun up and struck him. Maldonado was called out on batter's interference by plate umpire Paul Emmel, Brewers manager Ron Roenicke emerged from the dugout to voice his disapproval of the call, and the team's nine-game winning streak was snapped.
Blown call? Depends who you ask. I made some calls this morning and heard split opinions.
Let's see what the rulebook has to say.
First, I think Keith Law and others were wrong when they said the rule in question was 6.06(c), which says "a batter is out for illegal action when he interferes with the catcher's fielding or throwing by stepping out of the batter's box or making any other movement that hinders the catcher's play at home base."
That's not what Emmel called, because when Roenicke came out to argue, he said over and over, "There's no way he's out of the box." That indicates the call actually related to:
Rule 6.05(g), which says "a batter is out when his fair ball touches him before touching a fielder. If the batter is in a legal position in the batter's box, see Rule 6.03, and, in the umpire's judgment, there was no intention to interfere with the course of the ball, a batted ball that strikes the batter or his bat shall be ruled a foul ball."
And, looking back, as ordered, to 6.03, "the batter's legal position shall be with both feet within the batter's box."
So it appears we're in a grey area again, just like it seemed we were last week when shortstop Jean Segura inadvertently ran the basepaths in the opposite direction.
If you watch the video of Maldonado, I think we can all agree that both feet were not on the ground in the batter's box when the baseball struck him. But was one foot in the box? Looks like it. Was that foot actually in contact with the dirt when the baseball struck Maldonado? Does that foot have to be in contact with the dirt, or just within the white lines of the box?
None of that is specifically spelled out in the rulebook, but Brewers broadcaster Bill Schroeder, a former Major League catcher, said it doesn't matter. He's seen it dozens, if not hundreds of times: Unless a batter makes contact with a fair ball after both feet have left the box, it's just a foul ball.
"That's just the way it's always called," Schroeder said Thursday morning from Los Angeles, where the Brewers were set to open a series against the Dodgers on Friday night. "That happens all the time when a guy has one foot in the box -- it's routine. That's a foul ball.
"I said this on the postgame show last night: We're not here to rag on the umpires. Ninety-nine times out of 100, they make the right call. But that's an easy call to make, and not only did they get it wrong, considering it ended the game, the umpires should have gotten together to make sure they got it right."
Are the precise mechanics of the Maldonado play spelled out in the rulebook? Not exactly, Schroeder said. But that should not matter.
"You have rules in the rule book and there are interpretations the umpires have to make," he said. "Like that thing with Segura going back to first. You can't put every single situation in the rulebook."
Regarding that strange Segura play: ESPN.com's Jayson Stark reported Thursday morning that Major League Baseball issued a memo to umpires this week clarifying that play. Segura should have been called out, that memo said, because of Rule 7:01 (a runner can't settle in at one base and then return to a previous base once the pitcher "assumes his pitching position") and a comment amended to Rule 7:08(a), which says "any runner after reaching first base who leaves the basepath heading for his dugout or his position believing that there is no further play, may be declared out if the umpire judges the act of the runner to be considered abandoning his efforts to run the bases."
I'll say it again: Baseball is a beautiful game.
How short is the leash on Rickie Weeks?
-- @cWard_Too_7
Flash back to 2012, when at least an injury explained Weeks' early-season slump. What explains his current funk? I don't know, Roenicke doesn't know and neither does hitting coach Johnny Narron. It comes at a particularly troublesome time for the Brewers, who need all they can get from their healthy big hitters, considering first baseman Corey Hart and third baseman Aramis Ramirez are sidelined.
Weeks didn't pan out as a replacement for Ramirez in the cleanup spot (4-for-43, two RBIs in 11 starts) and has five hits in his last 67 plate appearances overall. He talked his way out of a day off during the Brewers' last homestand, but I would be absolutely shocked if Roenicke does not sit Weeks during one of these three weekend games against the Dodgers after he committed two errors and another near-error in Wednesday's one-run loss to the Padres.
But for those who want Weeks out of the lineup indefinitely, I'm guessing you will be disappointed. The Brewers stuck with him last year after an early funk, and Weeks rewarded that faith with a productive .344 on-base percentage and .789 OPS from June 1 through the end of the season. I don't think anyone wants to start the clock on Scooter Gennett just yet, so it looks like Weeks will again get the opportunity to swing his way out of this.
Why isn't Maldonado at first base most nights? Alex Gonzalez is struggling hard at the plate, and they've got Blake Lalli on the bench for emergencies.
-- @brewerfan17 on Twitter
Roenicke is trying hard to get Gonzalez going, though it appears last year's knee surgery has cost him a step. The thinking is that Gonzalez is a plus in the field, and that they would like to see him build some offensive confidence before moving him into a reserve role when Hart and Ramirez return.
What are chances anyone convinces Roenicke to stick with Jim Henderson as closer if it's working?
-- @robbymaxximus on Twitter
I'm very interested to see what happens if the Brewers face a save situation at Dodger Stadium. With the way John Axford has been throwing, it could be the perfect place to reinstall him as the closer, and I think the consensus is that the team will be best served over the long term if Axford is a successful closer and Henderson is the setup man.
But it was difficult to read Roenicke's comments this week. On one hand, asked what it would take to reinstall Axford as closer, Roenicke said, "Probably not much." But on the other hand, he said, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, "I think right now, we're not going to flip Ax back in the closer's role."
Let's see what happens in L.A.
Where is Mark Rogers in all of this?
-- @superfanpete on Twitter
Double-A Huntsville, where Rogers worked around a hit and a walk in a scoreless inning of relief on Tuesday to begin a 30-day rehabilitation assignment.
The Brewers still view Rogers' future as a starting pitcher, but they have been shifting him to relief, on one hand in an effort to restore his missing velocity by using him in short bursts, and on the other hand because it looks like relief offers the best path to this year's team. Remember, Rogers is out of options, so at the end of these 30 days, the team will have to make a decision on him.
Keep the questions coming. We'll make this a regular endeavor.

In keeping with its turn-of-the-century theme, all of Main Street is lit either by gas lamps or Edison-style light bulbs of hand-blown glass. At one time, old Diogenes the lamplighter would walk down Main Street each evening, lighting the gas lamps one at a time and interacting with guests saying he was "just looking for someone with character."
In Diogenes' absence, the lamps would be lit by Inferno, the fire breather from the Mickey Mouse Club Circus. Unfortunately, rising costs and a push for a new contract from the lamp-lighters union eventually led to the cancellation of this time-honored tradition. Today, the lamps are lit with a burst of high-intensity laser light fired from the top of the train station. It's a high-tech solution that's quick, inexpensive, and hardly ever blinds anyone.

Eucalyptus furniture gaining in popularity
By Lucy Stone, Networx
Eucalyptus is a strong, sustainable hardwood that grows fast, requires little water, and can be planted in the least fertile of soils where other crops would wither.
Combined with a high oil content that resists rotting and moisture damage, eucalyptus will last much longer both indoors and outdoors than other woods.
Featuring straight grains, this wood is becoming more affordable in a variety of furniture pieces.

U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission
Suit Says Supervisor of Muslim Worker Referred to Ramadan as 'Taliban'
CHICAGO - The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) today filed its fourth post-9/11 backlash discrimination lawsuit against Norwegian American Hospital (Norwegian) for subjecting Charging Party Rashidah Abdullah to harassment, discriminatory discipline, retaliation, and termination because of her religion, Islam. According to the suit, filed under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 in Federal District Court in Chicago, the religious discrimination and harassment began prior to September 11, 2001, but continued and intensified thereafter. Norwegian American Hospital is located on North Francisco Avenue in Chicago's Humboldt Park neighborhood and has more than 500 employees.
"Our nation's tradition of religious tolerance and our laws prohibiting discrimination and ensuring equal employment opportunity must be honored," said EEOC Chair Cari M. Dominguez. "Employers must remain vigilant in guarding against backlash discrimination directed at innocent individuals due to their religion, ethnicity, or country of origin - especially after the tragic events of September 11 and during this time of war."
EEOC's court-filed Complaint alleges that one of the hospital's managers created a religiously hostile work environment by treating Abdullah worse than other workers because of her religion and finally fired her, and that Norwegian endorsed the mistreatment. The EEOC said that its administrative investigation, which it conducted prior to filing suit, indicated that Abdullah's manager made offensive comments about her religion and religious beliefs, including referring to the Muslim holy observance of Ramadan as "Taliban." The EEOC also contends that Norwegian retaliated against Abdullah for complaining about the religious harassment and discriminatory treatment by intensifying the derogatory comments and unjustified disciplinary measures after the events of September 11, 2001.
John Hendrickson, EEOC's Regional Attorney in Chicago, said: "An employer that engages in unlawful discrimination suffers a self-inflicted wound. When that discrimination is followed by retaliation, as it was in this case, the employer compounds the injury. EEOC's vigilance in preventing and remedying religious discrimination in the workplace - whether the religion involved is Christianity, Judaism, Islam or any other- has not and will not falter."
John Rowe, Director of the EEOC's Chicago District Office, add: "As the President and the federal government have repeatedly made clear since 9/11, any on-the-job backlash against our Muslim neighbors is unacceptable and will not be tolerated."
The lawsuit, which was filed after the EEOC's efforts to voluntarily conciliate the matter with the hospital proved unavailing, seeks monetary relief in the form of back pay and compensatory and punitive damages, an order requiring the company to implement measures to prevent a recurrence, and a permanent injunction against future discrimination and retaliation. The suit, which was filed in the Eastern Division of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois and captioned Equal Employment Opportunity Commission v. Norwegian American Hospital, has been assigned to District Judge Zagel and designated case number 03 C 2360. The case is the EEOC's fourth lawsuit alleging backlash discrimination against employees related to the events of September 11, 2001.
Lauren Dreilinger, Chicago Trial Attorney who will lead the EEOC litigation, said: "Ms. Abdullah's supervisor made disparaging comments about her religion, including linking her faith to the Taliban, the former regime in Afghanistan, and stated that if she was unhappy with her treatment that she should leave the country. Such jibes and put downs have no place at work under any circumstances. Moreover, the harassment was especially egregious here because Abdullah's family has lived in the United States for generations."
In addition to enforcing Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex or national origin, the EEOC enforces Title I of the Americans with Disabilities Act, which prohibits discrimination against people with disabilities in the private sector and state and local governments; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, which protects individuals who are 40 years of age or older; the Equal Pay Act; the Rehabilitation Act of 1973's prohibitions against discrimination affecting individuals with disabilities in the federal sector; and sections of the Civil Rights Act of 1991. Further information about the Commission is available on the agency's web site atwww.eeoc.gov.

Berkeley, April 30—
A LIGHT SUPPER at a friend's in Berkeley, where we spend the night before driving down to Los Angeles. She served a nice tossed salad with a can or two of tuna inside — good lettuce, chopped red and green peppers, nice oil, good tuna. Bread from Healdsburg's Downtown Bakery & Creamery.
Strawberries and ice cream with a florentine for dessert. Nice.
The rest of the Salice Salentino, Feudo Monaci, 2003, bought yesterday in that funny liquor store in Willows

Collaboration is the mark of a true partnership. Nalco Water was recently recognized for this quality by WestRock, a leading provider of paper and packaging solutions in the consumer and corrugated markets.
The partnership between WestRock and Nalco Water spans more than 20 years, and over the last 18 months, the two companies strengthened this partnership by leveraging their Lean Six Sigma (LSS) programs to align corporate objectives to reduce operating costs through local mill implementation. The LSS structured problem-solving methodology focused on collaboration by cross-company teams to identify improvement opportunities in the pulp, paper and water areas. The result was the implementation of solutions that reduced bleaching costs, raw materials and wash water, and improved asset reliability and quality, helping to reduce WestRock's overall operational costs.
WestRock presented Nalco Water with its Collaboration Award, which acknowledged the innovation and process and product quality achievements that resulted from the partnership. Nalco Water was one of only nine suppliers in 2016 to be honored by WestRock.

As of September 28th 2014, Food Not Bombs Las Vegas has begun holding our weekly vegetarian/vegan picnics at Huntridge Circle Park, rather than Baker Park. Baker Park was used as our weekly location for Food Not Bombs Las Vegas meals and other events for over six years, since the closing of Circle Park and served that purpose quite well until recent changes within the park limited the useable space available within the park. Those and various other reasons that went into the decision to move are explain in more detail within the attached statement.
Also, as most everyone familiar with Food Not Bombs Las Vegas knows, there is a bit of a history between the city and FNBLV involving Circle Park. In fact, the local government's inability to legally prevent us from feeding hungry people there (and elsewhere) led to the park's closure (the convenient excuse involved a stabbing). Although we do have some sentimental feelings about returning to where Food Not Bombs originally started in Las Vegas, the reasons for picking Circle Park (once again, discussed in more detail in the statement below), are based more on convenience, need, and proximity than those nostalgic motivations.

In 1925, soccer arrived at Fenway Park for the first time with a pair of matches in October. Several amateur baseball and football teams also played at the park during the year and provided a change of pace from the dispiriting Red Sox season.
In 1925, soccer arrived at Fenway Park for the first time with a pair of matches in October. Several amateur baseball and football teams also played at the park during the year and provided a change of pace from the dispiriting Red Sox season.
Record: 47-105, 8th in American League
Manager: Lee A. Fohl
Attendance: 267,782
Almost nothing went right for the Red Sox in 1925, with a 2-10 April start setting the tone for the season. Lee Fohl returned as manager but the Red Sox won only 47 games, the fewest wins in team history. While losing 105 games, the team scored 639 runs but allowed 922 and committed 63 more errors than it had the year before.
Perhaps there was some solace that the Yankees had fallen all the way to seventh place, but the Red Sox were so deep in the cellar that there were still more than 20 games separating them from New York. The longest Red Sox winning streak in 1925 was three games long and attendance plunged by over 180,000 at Fenway Park.
Ike Boone had another good year and so did new third baseman Doc Prothro. First baseman Phil Todt's 75 RBIs and 11 home runs led the team while Ted Wingfield was the team's leader in wins with a 12-19 record. Howard Ehmke and rookie Red Ruffing both earned nine victories. The fact that a future Hall of Famer like Ruffing could fare so poorly (9-18) reflected both his inexperience and the team around him. There wasn't much hope to build a better team though, as Quinn and company lacked the capital to compete.
In 1925, an eclectic mix of non-Red Sox baseball games were played at Fenway Park. Rivals Holy Cross and Boston College played each other in May, while a pair of youth games took place during the summer. One of the youth games was a contest involving two girls teams, while the other was a showdown between a boys team from Chelsea and a youth team from the North End that preceded a Red Sox game. Later in the year, two championship games were decided at Fenway Park including the National Post Office Championship.

*Started in the 1910s, a late May memorial service coinciding with the Memorial Day weekend was often held at Fenway Park through the mid-20th Century.
Before they played at Fenway Park on November 14, 1925, Providence College had rejected Boston University's request to play the game not by timed periods, but instead by a little-used regimen that would have had each team use a 40-play period system that BU had used in the previous game against Brown in Providence, RI.
Providence head coach Archie Golembeski remarked:
"While the system may produce approximately the same results as the customary timing methods so far as the elapsed time of periods and the number of plays per period are concerned, I believe it tends to devitalize the game by eliminating an element of suspense which is essential to football." (Bridgeport (CT) Telegram, November 12, 1925)

Globes Best Friend: Tom Cruise
The GMD – he was Mr Popular last night, wasn't he? Could not WAIT til commercial break, at which point he apparently launched himself up out of his chair in a mad dash to talk to Leo, to Kate, to Steven, to Clint, to anyone who would meet his mother.
Bitch is f-cked up and weird but you have to admire the effort. It's endearing to see a midge try so hard.
And he looked great too, non? Trim, tanned, a well cut tux, the haircut that made him famous – in the last month or so he's lost 15 years. Granny Freeze is jealous.
As for his current wife – Katie wrapped up on All My Sons last night, her final performance, so she must have been exhausted, right?
Doesn't matter.
A helicopter straight to the jet, and by the time he was at the afterparties she was right by his side. Of course. It's always about the business. And for Tom Cruise at the Globes last night, there was much business to be done. He lives to see another day.

Sometimes I get turned onto shows by my wife who is a much smarter creature than I, and for some reason she started watching Raising Hope early in its first season. I dismissed it out of hand because I didn't understand or appreciate the allure of creator Greg Garcia's last show (My Name Is Earl), and this one seemed a lot like it. However, I eventually capitulated and gave it a whirl and oddly enough, it might be the best show on Fox at the moment.
The show's premise is intriguing, that's for sure. Jimmy (Lucas Neff), is out on an errand for his parents when he finds Lucy (Bijou Phillips, Choke) banging on his van window hoping to be rescued from an abusive boyfriend. Jimmy obliges and the two hook up in the van and outside his house. Jimmy wakes up the next morning to see Lucy at the breakfast table with her Mom, Virginia (Martha Plimpton, The Goonies) and Dad Burt (Garrett Dillahunt, No Country For Old Men). When Lucy steps away, the family finds out she is apparently wanted for murder, and Virginia subdues her by hitting her over the head with a television. Lucy is about to be executed for her crimes and meets Jimmy at her request, where he finds out she's pregnant with her baby. Upon Lucy's execution, Jimmy is given the baby, an adorable girl named Hope, to raise as his own. He raises her with the advice of his parents, who coincidentally had Jimmy when they were teenagers. The quartet also lives with/tolerates Maw Maw (Cloris Leachman, Young Frankenstein), the aging matriarch battling dementia in a comic manner. And thus, with Virginia's job as a maid for hire and Burt's job as a pool cleaner and landscaper combined with Jimmy's job at the local grocery store, hijinks commence.
With the decidedly blue collar tint to the family's occupations, it was rather simplistic on my part to consider the show Garcia's sequel and continuing ode to white trash. But when you watch the pilot, there is a charming secondary story that advances through the course of the show's season. Burt and Virginia being in a similar situation that Jimmy finds himself in now (both had to raise a child when they were still teenagers), and their experience helps Jimmy dal with the stress, while they also get a chance to rediscover some moments of lost childhood. There is a cute moment during the first season when Burt and Jimmy are hanging out and Burt feels some conflict that Jimmy is more of a son and less of a buddy, which he's bothered by, and these times when Burt and Virginia find themselves growing in areas of adulthood they may not have realized before are charming and help make someone like me stay for the show.
The show brings you in for the laughs, which it manages to deliver in Costco-like quantity. Neff is a relative unknown (to me at least) and his performance has a mix of naïve optimism and goofiness that is fascinating to watch, and I think he has a better than expected touch for physical comedy that is proficient. He is one part of this comic three-headed monster, with Dillahunt's turn as the slightly older and more oblivious playmate that happens to be his father makes for some hilarious turns. It may be an extension of his role in No Country For Old Men, but it works and is worth tuning in for. The surprise for me was Plimpton, who appears to not have aged a day since being in some recognizable films from the '80s. She plays Jimmy's mom with a strength and occasional touching moment of tenderness that tends to make you lose yourself in her character. It helps that her character tosses in two multi-syllabic words at once (like "procrasturbate") to reinforce her own place within the family redneck-edness.
Sure, the show has its share of guest stars, and the Earl stars Jason Lee, Jaime Pressly and Ethan Suplee show up to fill the quota for the Garcia stock company, but the existing supporting cast has their own moments as well. Leachman handles the senile character of Maw Maw without abandon, and as Jimmy's love (or heavy like) interest Sabrina, Shannon Woodward (The Riches) looks like she came straight out of a Greg Mottola film, possessing a mix of beauty and intellect that makes her an instant crush. With other recurring cast members like Garfunkel and Oates' Kate Micucci, along with veteran actors Gregg Binkley (State of Play) and Tichina Arnold (Everybody Hates Chris), the cast as a whole brings the funny in a quiet but strong manner.
It felt good to get hooked into Raising Hope early because I think with the way the cast is set up, there is a potential to be a staple of programming for Fox for the next several seasons, something Garcia has had a knack for with his other shows. More importantly, it served as a good experience for me as a husband. See honey, I actually DO listen to you when you say something is good! Raising Hope is that, with a convincing layer of allure that makes for enjoyable viewing.
Season One of Raising Hope includes 24 episodes spread out over three discs, and all of the episodes are presented in 1.78:1 anamorphic widescreen, and the results are solid. Filmed in high definition, the standard definition discs are nothing to sneeze at. Flesh tones are accurate and blacks are pretty strong without crushing, yet they manage to pull off the red in Dillahunt's many Washington Capitals shirts without saturation issues. There was no noticeable edge enhancement or image haloing that could have been a distraction, and the overall result is fine viewing material.
Dolby Digital 5.1 surround for each and every episode. The soundtrack is a little more active than I was expecting, with directional effects and channel panning in multiple episodes. While there was some flirting with low-end fidelity, the subwoofer never engaged. Minor grievance aside, the comedy isn't going to be confused with demo material to begin with, and handles songs and ambient noises effectively. A very nice listening experience over all discs.
There is something about the supplements within the set that leaves you a bit hollow when you're done, like there should be more here. Disc One has a commentary on the pilot with Garcia, Neff, Dillahunt and Plimpton, and they discuss what they liked and didn't on the episodes. There are lots of goofing around and not a lot of recall on the production itself. As a result the track is hardly a mindblower. The only other extra on the disc is the unaired pilot (22:20), notable in that Micucci portrays the role of Jimmy's cousin, but past that, you're not missing anything.
The other extras can be found on the third disc, starting with an extended cut of "Don't Vote For This Episode" (26:00), a.k.a. the season finale. With the added four and a half minutes there is more room for the jokes stretch out and it's nice, but hardly mind blowing. Next is "Adorable Stars" (6:26), which looks at the twin children who portray Hope. Featuring interviews with the children's mother and the cast and crew, there are tons of shots of cute baby mugging that help show some people why the show works as it does. Next is "Moments with Mrs. Chance" (4:31), which is a similar looking piece to the previous one, just focusing more on Plimpton's lines in the show. "Taking Chances" (11:29) is the closest thing to a making-of featurette on the disc, as Garcia and the cast talk about shooting the finale and share their thoughts on one another and on the show, along with how Garcia works as a show runner and director. The gag reel (5:41) isn't too shabby, while the deleted and extended scenes (21, 19:40) shows us some interesting elements that were excised, including something which actually became the season's cliffhanger.
I don't know whether or not Raising Hope is better than My Name Is Earl, but for a first season this is worthy enough to laugh violently while marveling at the smaller moments. Technically it's fine, though it lacks a bit on the bonus side of things, but with the second season in its infancy, the first is absolutely worth checking out.

Making a start...
Friday, April 9, 2010
Musing About Mud
Well now how did that happen? I took a blogging break over christmas and next thing I know its April! Oops.
I've been having a lovely time in the studio of late. I've spent the last few weeks mixing up glaze tests. I've been working with the same tried and trusted glazes for years. They've been perfect for the kind of work I've been doing (and there's nothing like reliability when it comes to meeting deadlines), but I'm after something a little different. Not wild and crazy different, just different to before. So I dug out all my old notes on glaze chemistry, hunted down my dusty glaze text books, set up my scales and sieves, and donned my dust mask (which is always a good look, especially after wearing it for an hour or so when its just that weeeee bit too tight).
When I started studying ceramics I remember dreading the glaze chemistry subjects. Those baffling charts and calculations were a bit overwhelming to start with. But I surprised myself at how much I enjoyed it. Really, its kind of amazing what you can create by mixing up a few simple substances, and the possibilities are endless. So I've been having a ball getting back into it after all these years. All I need now is for a nice big gas kiln to drop from the sky and install itself in my studio. My trusty electric kilns are great, but electricity just doesn't cut it when it comes to certain glazes. Ah well. Sometimes you just gotta work with what you've got.I've also been working on some new wall tiles (pics above and below). I've refined the form a little, made them bigger (a whopping great 10cm x 10cm), and have been playing with inlaying different stoneware clay bodies into porcelain and combining it all with drawings and decals. There's a bit more work to be done on these, but as with most things I make these days…slowly slowly.

John Norbeck, head of Pennsylvania's award-winning park system, said the administration of Gov. Tom Corbett forced his resignation last week because of "philosophical differences," including his opposition to commercial timbering, mining and Marcellus Shale gas drilling in the parks.
His departure comes on the heels of recent criticism of the state Department of Conservation and Natural Resources by Paulette Viola, a longtime Citizens Advisory Committee member, about its lack of transparency on resource extraction issues and amid reports of widespread morale problems, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported.
In a phone interview from his home Sunday, Norbeck, 56, said he received a termination letter from the state's human resources office on Oct. 1, informing him that his last day of work would be Friday, Oct. 5, but "if he wanted to tender his resignation it would be considered."
On Wednesday he agreed to resign and asked for, and was granted, a two-week extension, through Oct. 19, to prepare a transition document for a new parks director.
Norbeck said he wasn't told why the administration wanted him out. The closest anyone came, he said, was when Adam Gingrich, an executive assistant to DCNR Secretary Richard J. Allan, said the "administration has decided to go in a different direction."
Although Norbeck said he didn't know of any one issue that caused the administration to sour on him, he cited several on which he differed with it.
He said Ellen Ferretti, appointed by the Corbett administration as DCNR deputy secretary for parks and forestry in June 2011, discussed starting commercial timbering operations in the state parks, but he told her proposing such a program would be "walking into a public buzz saw" and the revenue that could be generated wouldn't be worth it.
Another involved a proposal by Amerikohl Mining Inc. to mine limestone under the 13,625-acre Laurel Ridge State Park in Somerset County. That proposal, which has not been publicly reported, was denied twice by the parks bureau, but Amerikohl has a meeting scheduled with DCNR officials in the coming weeks to ask again, Norbeck said.
He said state park rules clearly prohibit mining on parkland. John Stilley, Amerikohl's CEO, said the company informally approached DCNR about allowing mining of the Loyalhanna limestone seam at a depth of about 200 feet. Such an operation would be an extension of Amerikohl's Jim Mountain Quarry, an all-surface operation that now is within 300 feet of the state park boundary.
"The limestone belongs to the state park but we made an informal request to see if we can generate some income for the park," said Stilley, who along with relatives contributed more than $32,000 to Corbett's political campaigns but denied he is trying to exert any political influence.
Norbeck, who has six years of outstanding job evaluations in his personnel file and was known to regularly work 50 or 60 hours a week, said he was angry about the administration's decision to get rid of him.
"… we were doing great stuff in the state's parks," he said. "I've talked to hundreds of people in the last week, and they are scared about what's going to happen to the department and the parks bureau.
"Morale is seriously low and there's concern about the lack of leadership coming out of the administration."
Norbeck worked in Maryland's state parks system for 29 years before he was appointed to head Pennsylvania's parks in 2006 by Gov. Ed Rendell. Under his stewardship, the state's system of 117 parks won the 2009-2011 National Gold Medal for Excellence in Park and Recreation Management awarded by the American Academy for Park and Recreation Administration and the National Recreation and Park Association.
During Norbeck's tenure, the Bureau of Parks, working with a shrinking staff, has seen park visitation increase from 35 million to 38 million a year, and income from rentals and services jump from $13 million in 2006 to $21.5 million last year.
Jeff Schmidt, executive director of the Sierra Club in Pennsylvania, called Norbeck "one of Pennsylvania's top professional conservationists."
"Anyone who knows John Norbeck knows his priority has always been to protect our precious natural resources, which are owned by the people of Pennsylvania," Schmidt said.
Christina Novak, a DCNR spokeswoman, declined to discuss the resignation because it's a personnel matter.
Norbeck's resignation is not the first sign the Corbett administration's natural resources management policies are creating turmoil at the DCNR. Last month Viola, who served 19 years on the DCNR Citizens Advisory Council, quit, saying the administration was ignoring citizen input, had thwarted council efforts to study drilling policy on public lands and had cut the council's $200,000 annual budget by 90 percent.
But Allan doesn't agree.
"DCNR will continue to support the work of the council, and we value its advice and recommendations," he said. "We look forward to working with the new council appointee and will welcome a fresh perspective."

Improve the Value of Your Home with Professional Masonry Work
When it comes to professional masonry work on Long Island, there's only one company to call: Joe's General Contracting. For more than 35 years, their team of highly experienced masonry contractors has been delivering exceptional results for their clients. Using state-of-the-art technology, cutting-edge tools and equipment, and timeless craftsmanship, Joe's General Contracting will deliver stunning masonry work for your home or business.
As a property owner, you want your home or business to be as valuable as possible. Whether you're thinking about selling, you want to apply for an equity line of credit, or you just want to make your property as beautiful as possible, you should definitely consider installing new masonry work.
Here's a look at some of the ways a professional contractor can improve the value of your property with expertly crafted and installed masonry.
Enhanced Curb Appeal
The outside of your property is the first thing that others see, so it makes sense that improving the curb appeal will boost the value of your home or business. If driveways are crumbling, walkways are cracked, retaining walls are falling apart, or any other masonry work is damaged or in disrepair, the value of your property is going to suffer.
Having a contractor come in and repair any damaged brickwork, stone, or concrete will instantly revitalize and improve the value of your property.
Create Lavish Spaces
Masonry work can be used to create lavish and simply stunning spaces, creating a welcoming atmosphere that will instantly boost your property value.
A contractor can install a paver patio or a brick outdoor fireplace that can turn an outdoor area into an inviting haven. Masonry contractors can resurface your indoor fireplace to make a living room, den, or dining room more handsome and welcoming. A pool surrounded with custom masonry will look like a piece of art in your yard. These lavish spaces will do wonders for the value of your property.
Improved Aesthetic Appeal
Whether outdoors or in, masonry work will dramatically improve the aesthetic appeal of your property. Custom stone, brick, and concrete can give your home or business a one-of-a-kind look that people will be willing to pay top dollar for. If you're thinking about selling your property in the future, custom masonry will serve as a definite point of interest that will grab the attention of prospective buyers and boost the value of your home or business.
Improved Safety
Damaged masonry work isn't just an eyesore; it can also be incredibly dangerous. Cracked and crumbling walkways and driveways are serious hazards; people could trip, fall, and suffer severe injuries. Crumbling retaining walls could potentially fall underfoot and cause substantial damages. A cracked fireplace could be a sign of a structural problem, and if not repaired, there's a chance that the entire structure could fall or a fire could start.
These damages are certainly unsightly, and they're incredibly dangerous. Masonry contractors will be able to assess your property, determine the extent of the damages, and device the most effective plan of action to properly repair your masonry work. By making these repairs, your property value will increase, not just because it looks better, but because it's safer.
Selling a home or business with damaged masonry work will negatively affect the amount potential buyers will be willing to spend; but, if you make the necessary repairs, you'll see a jump in your property's worth.
Create an Upscale Look
It's amazing what masonry work can do for a property. A reputable contractor can completely transform a dull, drab, home and give it a truly custom look. Installing brickwork or cultured stone on the façade of business will make it stand out from the crowd and instantly grab the attention of a passerby.
Experienced masonry contractors can incorporate brick, stone, and concrete into your property in a multitude of ways to create a truly upscale look that will drive up the value.
Improve Your Property Value with Joe's General Contracting
If you're looking to increase your home or business' property value, or you just want to give the space a fresh, clean look, masonry can do wonders. The professional masonry contractors and Joe's General Contracting will create stunning results that will make your home or business look incredible and instantly increase its worth.

namtabirl necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
2 ganadores han sido elegidos entre 88 diseños de 28 diseñadores freelance.
UPDATE: This is not going to be easy to choose! Thank you all for the outstanding work. Just to let you know, I'm looking at all the 3 & 4-star entries as serious contenders. That should give you all an idea on the concept I'm after.
UPDATE: From what I've seen so far, looks like a logo over my name works best. Logo looks like it will work best if it's a slightly graphic play on my initials "TM". "Trevor Moody" needs to be scripted. "Photography" on seperate line underneath & not scripted. Tending towards a graduated background with offset, exploded view of logo. Colours looking like play on a rich red, black & grey. If anybody's got other ideas please submit. Favourite so far.....http://contests.sitepoint.com/contests/5118/entries/324977
ps-> I'm rating some below. It's a quick visual for you all to see where my think is at. (No reflection on work if not rated :) ).
I'll be adding comments below as I get more of a flavour from what's coming in, but for now.........I'm a pro photographer. I work in fine art, commercial, portraiture, stock, wedding, event & and any other area of photography you want to mention, so the designs should not be specific to any area of the business. Designs should be clean & fresh.
None thanks.
Desired Color Scheme:
Open to suggestions.
Desired Style:
Open to suggestions.
Accepted File Formats:
Vector Formats (.eps, .pdf or .ai); Layered Formats (.psd or .tiff)
A clean-looking logo that contains my name "Trevor Moody Photography". Probably best if the word "Photography" is split from my name, ie not on same line of text. A clean and neat symbol (don't think I want any cameras). I am open to designs with just my name or with a symbol and my name. Would be nice if it would work just as a symbol as well as together with the name Trevor Moody Photography. I'm based in Ireland, but please, no shamrocks or leprechauns ;p.
I have a website (http://www.trevormoody.com), it's about 3 years old & done by me, so please ignore design & content.
Stationary needs to include logo, website address, email & phone number.
Thanks for looking & I look forward to working with you all. I've seen some stunning work that was submitted to other contests.This contest was originally listed in multiple categories:
- Logo Design
- Stationery Design

After a bit of deliberation I have decided to actually change the name of this site to "Գնոմ միջավայրի ի այգին. The domain is still "gnomestead.com" and so this will always be The Gnomestead, but this is the place where all my pages essentially are planted. IE you can get to all my other sites from the garden path here.
Perhaps I'll change my mind again later. However I think that with the decision not to have The Gnome's Garden as a Forum, that it is good to have it for the name for the website. That way the Facebook actually can be the page representing something. If I do decide to do a forum at some distant point in the future we can figure that one out then. For now… I am still considering the name for my editorial column. I have two terms I am playing with to include in the title… either one, the other, or both. They have both personal and topical connections to me and the idea of editorial comment and discussion. We shall be pondering it a bit more yet.

Vatican City, Aug 24, 2013 / 04:02 pm ().- Despite rumors about the supposedly imminent appointment of a new Secretary of State, Pope Francis will not be making any major appointments before October, Vatican insiders maintain.
"Pope Francis is not in a hurry to appoint a new Secretary of State, and he could also decide to keep Bertone at his post until he will turn 80," a source familiar with the Vatican Secretariat of State who asked for anonymity told CNA Aug. 20.
On Oct. 1-3, the "Gang of Eight" group of cardinals on reforming the Roman Curia will meet, and the source disavowed any changes to the secretariat of state before that assembly.
In fact, pressure for the replacement of Cardinal Bertone as Secretary of State began long before Benedict XVI's resignation.
Despite critics, innuendos and accusations, Benedict XVI always want to keep Cardinal Bertone at his post, stating publicly several times his trust in his prime collaborator.
During the pre-conclave meeting in March, cardinals highlighted several criticisms of the secretariate of state, and asked for more collegiality.
Pope Francis responded to the cardinals' suggestions and requests by appointing on April 13 the group of eight cardinals to advise him about a possible Curia reform.
Cardinal Sean O'Malley of Boston, one of the group's members, signaled in a March 4 interview with CNA that the pre-conclave meetings helped the cardinals to discuss "the Church's governing body."
A curial reform is needed to improve the relationships among the various departments of the Church's central governing body and the universal Church, he added.
The appointment of this group of cardinals raised expectation for a curial reform and encouraged speculations about a new Secretary of State to be appointed soon.
It had been strongly rumored that Pope Francis would have made public the appointment of the new Secretary of State on June 29, and since it did not occur it is now rumored that Cardinal Bertone will have to step down in September.
In fact, the anonymous source said in conversation that "Pope Francis does not seem to want to take any major decision before the October 1-3 meeting of the group of cardinals. And even after that meeting, he could decide to keep Bertone at his post."
"Pope Francis does not want give the impression of repudiating Pope Benedict XVI's pontificate," the source asserted.
On the one hand, "getting rid of Cardinal Bertone in the midst of a long-term campaign against him could be seen as an evidence of Bertone's wrongdoing, and so also as evidence of Benedict XVI's incompetence in choosing his collaborators."
On the other hand, keeping Cardinal Bertone at his post would not even damage Pope Francis' image, as the secretariate of state has been exerting less influence during his pontificate.
According to the Vaticanista Sandro Magister, "the State Secretariat continues its routine work, but much more at work is another secretariat, miniscule but highly active, which in direct service to the Pope attends to the matters that he wants to resolve himself, without any interference whatsoever."
It is also possible that the importance of the secretariat of state will be diminished after the curial reform.
In fact, a possible reform of the Roman Curia has been much discussed during recent years.
A monsignor working in a Pontifical Council who asked for anonymity told CNA Aug. 20 that a draft of such a reform was sketched out in 2005, shortly before Blessed John Paul II's death.
That draft had suggested creating a committee composed of the prefects of Congregations and some trusted cardinals charged with managing the Church. This committee would take over the first set of duties currently carried out by the secretariat of state.
Thus, the state secretariat would only deal with the relations with states, not Church governance.
Ultimately, the governance of the Holy See would be run by a sort of pyramid structure: on the top, the management committee, a sort of council of cardinals; then the Congregations; and the Pontifical Council, which would become a sort of department in the ministries.
This sketch, the source maintains, "has been quietly proposed" to Pope Francis, and, with some modifications, "can be one of the proposal to be discussed by the group of eight cardinals."
