Marlins Win with new "Fishy" pitch
Pitchers usually do not have new pitches during the season that are effective, and can win them, ballgames. they sometimes fiddle with a delivery, or mess with the basics of a cutter, or a slurve. But rarely does a pitch make it past a teams' scouting report, and show up unannounced on a MLB diamond.
On Sunday, Florida Marlins starter Ricky Nolasco used the unannoiuced cutter that he had been working on for a few months into his game day pitch package. It had the Rays a bit dazed and confused at the plate becuase of its great late tailing action. Nolasco came within 1 out of a complete game, which would have been the 1st one for Marlins Manager Fredi Gonzalez.
Trivia Fact of the Night:
At the age of 20, Detroit Tiger Al Kaline became the youngest player to win a Batting Title by hitting .340 in 1955.
Open Letter to BJ Upton:
Dear B J,
I understand that you are still learning how to play centerfield for our team. I also understand that you will make mistakes and bloopers during this time. But, the play with you and Gabe Gross in the 8th inning was even beyond grade school baseball basics. I can still hear my Little League coach yell the basic outfield call-off play.
Gross heard you call for the ball, and being the seasoned outfielder, he pulled off the play, since the centerfielder aka "the on field QB", called for the ball.
You then did not hesistate but pull up yourself and help award Cody Ross a 2-run triple for your efforts. Gross did you the same honor almost a week ago and it cost him an error in the play.
I hope Gabe has the idea now that even a called ball might fall to the turf until you understand how to run a good route to the ball. I rip into you here because I know you are better than this, not because you made a huge miscalculation here.
I hate to tell you B J , but missing the plays like this might setup an accidental meeting of the minds some night on the field, and someone might get hurt in the process. Please think smart and follow through on your actions for everyone's sake.
In closing, B J , please think before calling the ball ( We all heard you call it in rightfield ) and then pull away from the falling sphere.
Marlins starter Ricky Nolasco owned the Rays on Sunday. His new pitch, the cutter played a bit of havoc on the guys. Nolasco got 12 strikeouts against the Rays, a season high for the team while also giving up 6 hits and 3 runs. The Rays now have 503 strikeouts for the season, which ranks them 5th in the MLB.
Rays starter, Edwin Jackson gave up two huge homeruns on his best pitches on Sunday.
Jackson's fateful pitches were a slider and a changeup. Wes Helms swung at the slider, Mike Jacobs swung at the change and each swing produced a three-run homer. Edwin never looked to be completely comfortable or confidient in his delivery on Sunday.
"It's simple facts once you know the chances of people scoring once you walk them," Jackson said. "It's nothing to be frustrated about. You know the situation, and once it happens all you can do is try and get out of it without any damage being done. And tonight, I couldn't do that."
Jackson fell back into his past recipe for frustration by now going 2-6 in his last 12 starts, and has not produced a quality start in his last 5 outings for the Rays. Jackson seems to be all over the plate with his fastball, which was his primary pitch most of the season.
When that pitch has problems, the rest of your selection also suffers. Edwin has to get his stuff over the plate to be successful, right now the plate is moving all over the place on him and he is lacking the consistant strike that could get him out of many of his problem situations for the Rays.
Just remember fans, last year Edwin was 0-8 with a 8.02 ERA at thie point in the season. An improvement, but not enough of one for this years contending team.
DH Cliff Floyd has been having a really successful weekend at the plate. Floyd went 2-4 Sunday with a single and a double. The double could have been a triple, but you could see Cliff flinch a bit as he motored into second base in the 2nd inning. Floyd is a lifetime .365 hitter at the Trop., 3rd best all-time.
Eric Hinske hit his 12th homer with a shot to right in the 6th inning. Hinske snapped a 0-11 streak last night with a 2-run double in the 1st inning. He has batted .292 over his last 7 games for the Rays.
With his 12th homer last night, Hinske took over the team lead from Carlos Pena. Only in 2002, when he was with Toronto has Hinske hit this homer plateau before now ( 55 games).
Jason Bartlett and Gabe Gross helped bring in the final two runs for the Rays Sunday. Bartlett hit a RBI-single that scored Dioner Navarro. Navarro had reached prior to the at-bat with a double to deep center field in the 5th inning.
Gabe Gross hit a single to center that scored Evan Longoria in the 9th inning. Longoria had walked previously and was on third when Gross hit the low liner to centerfield.
Akinora Iwamura started off the game with a single to rightfield and then stole second base. He was the only player on either team to attempt a steal on Sunday.
Edwin Jackson did have one impressive statistic from Sunday, he showed a really quick and accurate pick-off move to get Jeremy Hermida at first in the first inning. Jackson had walked him in the at-bat.
Jason Bartlett got another throwing error from short today with a wild throw that eluded Willy Aybar at first base in the 9th inning. Bartlett was trying to get speedster Hanley Ramirez at first and overthrew the ball into the 1st base wall.
Last Night's victory gave the Rays their 8th straight series win since losing 2 of 3 to the Chicago White Sox in April. That is the longest str..eak in the majors this season.
Tha Rays are 32-17 (.653) since April 22, which is the best record in the majors since then. 45 of the Rays 68 games have been against teams over .500 this season.
Starting Tuesday, the Rays will entertain the Chicago Cubs for the first time in the Trop. It is also the homecoming for fomer Rays' manager Lou Piniella, now at the helm for the Cubs.
As you might remember, the last series that these teams played at Wrigley Field was in imfamous Sammy Sosa corked bat incident in the first game of that series.
Former Ray Toby Hall was catching when Sosa's bat broke on a play and showed a cork-like substance in the barrell.
Current Rays Carl Crawford and Rocco Baldelli are the only Rays still with the team and to have played in that series.

Arsenal goalkeeper, Wojciech Szczesny, has insisted that he is still yet to find his best form despite putting on a superb show during his side's 1-0 victory away at Sunderland on Saturday.
The Polish international has admitted that he has still got to work harder to find his top form and that to do so, he has to push himself harder in a bid to reach the higher levels.
Szczesny pulled off several world-class saves during Arsenal's 1-0 win at the weekend, and played a crucial role between the sticks as Sunderland were pushed for an equaliser.
After Carl Jenkinson saw red in the 60th minute, it was very much back-to-the-walls for Arsenal, but Szczesny held firm as his side held on for three points.
The young goalkeeper came to the rescue several times denying Steven Fletcher on three occasions and a last-minute strike from Adam Johnson, however he insists that he must work harder, especially when it comes to dealing with high-balls and crosses.
"I made a couple of saves that helped the team win the game and I'm happy for that but there is a lot of work still to be done," Szczesny said in the Daily Mirror.
"I still struggled a little bit on crosses so I would have been happier with a faultless performance."
Szczesny is now confident that the team can push on for a top four finish and he believes the Sunderland victory proves the side has the character to battle.
"We showed people we have what it takes to be successful and showed character and desire to get the result," he added.
Arsenal welcome Blackburn Rovers to the Emirates Stadium on Saturday, as they look to make it into the FA Cup sixth round.

OK, I need everybody's two cents here. I brewed a single hopped Citra pale ale that I created the recipe for. Since I've been brewing all grain since June 2012, I've consistently hit 70% efficiency with my mash to within +/- .002 for my OG. My last brew before this one was a Red IPA with a target OG of 1.070, but I hit 1.078. I wrote this off to the increased sparge water temp. I had been sparging with 170ish degree water and upped it to 185 because of some advice from the forum. So yesterday, I decided to brew the Citra pale ale with the recipe derived from 70% efficiency and use the 185 sparge water...Just to see if this becomes a trend before I switch up my recipe calculations. I also decided to not use the pH stabilizer that I have always used per advice from Denny. The brew went very well....until I took my OG reading and found that I over shot my 1.057 target OG and hit 1.077! So, I want to see what everybody has to say about this. Say I increase my gravity by .005 to .007 by using the higher temp sparge water. Could I have increased the efficiency that much more by dropping the pH stabilizer?I used the same grain mill and settings that I've used since October.11 lb Two Row.75 lb 40L Caramel.5 lb 60L Caramel60 minute mash @ 150 degrees in a blue coolerI mashed with 5.5 gallons and batch sparged with 3.5 gallonsNot that overshooting this is a terrible thing if it happens all the time and becomes consistant. This has just never happened before. Needless to say, this is no longer a Citra APA. It is now a Citra IPA. I used 2 oz of Citra in the boil and planned to dry hop with a 1/2 ounce....Well, we're just gonna have to up that dry hop addition to 3 ounces!
My hydrometer was calibrated...can one become uncalibrated? I never remember to take a pre-wort gravity reading. I'm going to start making sure I do.

Are you absolutely sure you weighed out your grain correctly -- didn't lose your train of thought and add another pound?

LAS VEGAS - The idea of a heterogeneous environment remains a very powerful force in IT.
Where a heterogeneous environment years ago may have been multiple Unix systems, today it could include two or more types of hypervisors on x86 systems. In the cloud era, being heterogeneous will mean using multiple clouds for compute and storage.
Even Hewlett-Packard, at its big user conference here this week, bowed to that reality, and announced it would support Amazon's hosted system as well as its own through its cloud management systems and services.
"We're not here to force anyone to one (cloud) bursting provider, we're about choice," said Scott Weller, HP vice president and general manager technology services support.
Hardware environments that mix and match multiple vendors are also important to some users.
Hector Fuentes, a storage administrator at a communications industry firm who was at the HP conference this week, believes that by using different storage vendors in his environment he can leverage them "for better pricing, better tools, and better support."
Fuentes uses storage systems from HP, NetApp and EMC in an environment that handles multiple petabytes of data.
With one vendor, "they know what you need and they can set the tone for the conversation," said Fuentes. "If you have multiple vendors, you set the tone."
It takes more work to support different hardware devices, said Fuentes, but the tradeoff is still worth it.
"It's not the amount of the work you have to put in it," said Fuentes, about supporting multiple system, "but what's best for your business."
Similarly, Jim Sievers, a systems infrastructure manager at a user firm, buys x86 servers from three vendors, HP, Dell and Cisco.
This competition among vendors "definitely helps - it never hurts to play one against the other," said Sievers.
It also allows Sievers to take advantage of the relative strengths of vendor release cycles. If he feels one vendor is ahead of another in a particular technology in a given year he may focus on that vendor.
Supporting multiple vendors "has it challenges because you end up with two or three sets of tools," said Sievers.
Jean Bozman, an analyst at IDC, said it isn't a coincidence that these users are pitting multiple vendors against each another. It's a historical trend.
In era of the IBM-compatible mainframe, Hitachi, Amdahl and IBM competed.
Among Unix, the major competition was, and still is, around Solaris, AIX and HP-UX.
"I think the number three is significant," said Bozman. "The dynamic of three [vendors] is very important."
Users who mix and match three separate hardware vendors are also leveraging the fact that there is lot of standards built into these environments, said Bozman.
But there are also many users who believe that working with one vendor has much merit.
Marco Baptista, the CIO of Inter, a Venezuela-based telecommunications company, uses HP in is IT shop.
By using a single vendor, Baptista, feels he gains economies of scale, systems are easy to replace, and management is easier.
Baptista believes you do loose some competitiveness by relying on one vendor, but said that relationships matter and he has had one with HP for 15 years, "and we're really happy with the products."

Incense is a material that creates a smell when it is burned. Incense overdose can occur when someone accidentally or intentionally sniffs or swallows liquid incense. Solid incense is not considered poisonous.
This is for information only and not for use in the treatment or management of an actual poison exposure. If you have an exposure, you should call your local emergency number (such as 911) or the National Poison Control Center at 1-800-222-1222.
Poisonous Ingredient
- Aromatic oils
- Nitrates
- Nitrites (including amyl nitrite)
Where Found
Liquid incense is sold on the Internet under a variety of brand names. It is usually described as a room deodorizer, despite being sold for other purposes. Liquid incense that is breathed in (inhaled) is called a "popper."
Eyes, ears, nose, and throat:
- Blurred vision
- Burning pain in the throat
- Burns to the eye
- Abdominal pain
Diarrhea(watery, bloody) Vomiting
Heart and blood:
Low blood pressure Methemoglobinemia(inability of blood to carry oxygen)
- Difficulty breathing
- Rapid breathing
Nervous system:
Coma(decreased level of consciousness and lack of responsiveness)
- Euphoria, a feeling like being drunk (intoxicated)
- Seizures
- Blue skin or fingers
- Rash
Home Care
Seek immediate medical help. Do NOT make a person throw up unless told to do so by Poison Control or a health care professional.
If the chemical is on the skin or in the eyes, flush with lots of water for at least 15 minutes.
If the chemical was swallowed, immediately give the person water or milk, unless instructed otherwise by a health care provider. Do NOT give water or milk if the patient is having symptoms (such as vomiting, convulsions, or a decreased level of alertness) that make it hard to swallow.
Before Calling Emergency
Determine the following information:
- Patients age, weight, and condition
- Name of the product (ingredients and strengths, if known)
- Time it was swallowed
- Amount swallowed
Poison Control, or a Local Emergency Number
The National Poison Control Center (1-800-222-1222) can be called from anywhere in the United States. This national hotline number will let you talk to experts in poisoning. They will give you further instructions.
This is a free and confidential service. All local poison control centers in the United States use this national number. You should call if you have any questions about poisoning or poison prevention. It does NOT need to be an emergency. You can call for any reason, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
What to Expect at the Emergency Room
The health care provider will measure and monitor your vital signs, including temperature, pulse, breathing rate, and blood pressure. Symptoms will be treated as appropriate. You may receive:
- Breathing support, including a tube through the mouth into the lungs and a breathing machine (ventilator)
- Chest x-ray
- EKG (heart tracing)
- Endoscopy -- camera down the throat to see burns in the esophagus and the stomach
- Fluids through a vein (by IV)
- Medicine (antidote) to reverse the effect of the poison
- Tube through the mouth into the stomach to wash out the stomach (
gastric lavage)
Outlook (Prognosis)
How well you do depends on the amount of poison swallowed and how quickly treatment is received. The faster you get medical help, the better the chance is for recovery.
Abusing liquid incense is as dangerous as taking other illicit drugs, and may result in death.

Apple shares have tumbled 18% from their record high of $705 — causing many to wonder whether the company has lost its mojo.
Despite the stock plunge, the company continues to beat expectations and its own sales records. Apple sold a record 3 million iPads from last Friday to Sunday when its latest iPad and iPad mini went on sale. That is double the number of tablets Apple sold in March when the third generation iPad went on sale.

You can download this video game for free.
The Terran Republic is not having a good day.
Our enemies in the New Conglomerate have smashed through our base defenses and are now swarming inside the perimeter like angry ants. I can see infantry coming from multiple directions, with tanks not far behind. The sky is clouded with aircraft and explosions.
Huddled inside my own tank, I'm launching shell after shell into the mass of blue-armored NC grunts, delighting in the mix of panic and awe that has defined so much of my time in "PlanetSide 2" (PC; rated Teen). Last stands have never been this much fun.
In simplest terms, "PS2" is a futuristic multiplayer shooter on an extremely large scale. Players join one of three warring factions and fight for control of territories spread across three gigantic landmasses on the planet Auraxis.
Unlike your average online shooter, "PS2" has no time limits or team size restrictions to keep battles reined in. I won't guess at the number of combatants I've viewed on screen at one time, but suffice to say, it dwarfs anything I've experienced in other games.
One night I accompanied roughly a hundred (or more) Terran soldiers as we slowly marched across a continent taking over enemy bases. The line of tanks on the road looked like something out an I-4 traffic jam, as dropships full of infantry sailed overhead flanked by gunship escorts.
What's impressive is just how valuable each player can be in conflicts of this size. Whether you drive a personnel carrier, repair vehicles, or lead an assault team fighting room to room you play a vital role in your faction's success. Players can easily swap between specialized character classes to fulfill different needs.
But let's back up a little. You might be interested to know that "PS2" has no upfront cost whatsoever. You can download and play the game at no charge (visit Planetside2.com), but of course, spending some cash has its perks.
The character progression system resembles many of those found in online games, in that you earn experience points that grant currency ("certs") to spend on new weapons and other upgrades. Paying a monthly subscription increases the rate at which you gain experience and the resources for acquiring vehicles. Alternatively, you can make single purchases for cosmetic items like uniform camo and helmets, or buy (marginally better) weapons with cash instead of spending your certs.
I'm often wary of these "free to play" games, but at this point I'm not sure that spending money in "PS2" translates to a significant advantage on the battlefield, though it does speed your progression along a bit faster.
I should also warn you that "PS2's" gorgeous visuals and high player counts can be very taxing on lower-end PCs. But for shooter fans with capable hardware, this is a must-play.
I can't think of a bigger or more exciting war game on the market.

BOSTON (AP) Local universities expressed concern Tuesday that a proposed College Athletes Bill of Rights would cost them scholarships and commit them to lifelong health insurance for players who are injured during games.
Testifying at a Boston City Council committee hearing, representatives from the area's Division I schools balked at provisions that they said would put them at a competitive disadvantage on the field and burden already money-losing athletic department budgets.
The College Athletes Bill of Rights proposed by City Councilor Josh Zakim would require schools in the city to offer four-year scholarships, instead of the renewable one-year grants the NCAA currently allows. It would also require schools to cover athletes' medical expenses for any sport-related injuries - for the rest of the player's life.
''I think this is an area the city has an opportunity to lead on,'' Zakim said.
Zakim also introduced a separate bill that would create a head-injury protocol that would apply to any games played in Boston.
The school representatives said they were in favor of protecting students but questioned whether the city should be the one to regulate them. On Monday, the NCAA issued guidelines that recommended a limit of two contact practices per week, but Zakim said it didn't go far enough.
''They (the NCAA) are a non-governmental body; these guidelines are non-binding,'' he said. ''Why shouldn't the city take the lead?''
The ordinance was filed in May, and Tuesday was an opportunity for the public to comment. Daniel Sibor, Zakim's chief of staff, said the proposal now goes to working sessions to hammer out the language with the hope of a vote in the fall.
Among those testifying before the city's Committee on Government Operations on Tuesday were representatives from Boston College, Boston University, Northeastern and the Association of Independent Colleges and Universities. Also speaking were Chris Nowinski, of the Sports Legacy Institute, which has led the national debate on head injuries in sports, and Ramogi Huma, the head of the National College Players Association.
''We're being stonewalled by the NCAA, the conference commissioners and all the schools,'' Huma said. ''I think we can get a standard in (this) way.''
Under the bill of rights, schools in the city would be required to offer injured or cut athletes equivalent, nonathletic scholarships for a total of five years or until the athlete graduates, whichever is sooner. (Scholarships could be withdrawn for disciplinary or academic reasons.)
Other provisions would require the school to provide athletes with ''financial and life skills'' and promise the athlete the same disciplinary rights as other students.
Calling for a ''Right to Health and Safety,'' the ordinance also would require schools to provide athletes with comprehensive, year-round medical care, and to train athletes and staff in concussion and dehydration awareness. The head-injury ordinance also filed by Zakim creates a protocol that would prevent players from returning to games after a concussion or becoming unconscious.

If this sauce was applied post-bake...I will eat my fedora. http://www.epicportions.com/2009/08/28/metro-detroits-best-pizza/
Hi Norma,I have read all 51 pages and bazillion posts with hopes and dreams of recreating Buddy's pizza at home now that you have done all the hard work. I live in Michigan and Buddy's pizza is my favorite - your picture posts look like you have hit it right on. I have one question as I am new to this pizza thing - in the very beginning you listed directions on how you mixed the dough and you mentioned that you added the yeast, dry, to your flour and then added it to the water. Is this standard for pizza dough, as opposed to acitivating the yeast first in the warm water? You are my hero for figuring this all out!Janet
Still good but not as good as before.
Thanks for the quick reply - I'll reread those two posts. I used to know Wes (from Buddy's) quite well as I did all the signage for two of their restaurants. I am trying to find someone who works or used to work there to weasel some information out of them. I know that I have noticed a difference in their pizza over the last year and a half and I am wondering if it has to do with the conveyor ovens. Still good but not as good as before. If I had to guess I would say they sauce it after it comes out. If I can get that information from a restaurant source I will most certainly pass it along.j
Norma, Peter,...oh, my... what have I gotten myself in to??? My initial feeling is that the pizza now is not as crisp as it used to be, especially in the middle section, almost soggy by time you get to your second slice. My husband keeps telling me I should get a job there to learn how to make it. I'll see if I can dig out Wes's contact info and see if he will share with me - it's been a while.Have a good day!jmg
I made two more 8-square pies last night using Normas' emergency formula. This time I applied the sauce mid bake, once the cheese had melted, thus keeping the sauce out of contact with the dough. It worked very well. I had no sag issues at all. Unfortunately, these were for a party and I had no time for pictures. Sorry about that.
You're welcome Norma. Actually though, I lied , I did get one picture but it doesn't really show much.
It is usually not a good idea to try to draw conclusions from a single data point, but take a look at the fifth photo (underskirt) in the Sept. 2010 Slice article at http://slice.seriouseats.com/archives/2010/09/livonia-michigan-mi-great-detroit-style-pizza-at-buddys.html. Then look at the fourth photo (crumb shot). I wonder whether the light colored, and not particularly crispy looking (with a lot of craters), bottom crust reflects a possible lowering of the hydration of the Buddy's dough, resulting in a more dense crumb. That could cause more of the bottom heat to pass through the dough to the cheese, sauce and toppings rather than darkening and crisping up the bottom crust, as it would if the dough had a higher hydration and acted more like an insulator than a conductor. Of course, factors like the amount of oil in the pan and the oven temperature can be factors although I would imagine that those steps are pretty well controlled. Or maybe the Livonia Buddy's location produces a somewhat different product.Peter
I know someone mentioned also on the Buddys thread that they liked a second pass though the conveyor oven to get Buddys pizza to their liking. I really dont understand how conveyor oven work either.

8-channel, 3-bus mic/line zone mixer with remote control and link ports.
The Behringer ULTRAZONE ZMX8210 inputs up to 8 signals to any or all of 3 destinations. For example, you can use your ULTRAZONE mixer to play stereo music for clients waiting in the lobby of your office complex and still page people in the work area. Another example might be a small church where soft music plays in the foyer, the preacher uses a mic in the sanctuary, and the Behringer ULTRAZONE sends the sermon and music to the nursery. These are all perfect applications for the ZMX8210"multiple sound sources, multiple zones, total flexibility.
Announcements that get heard
Set the ULTRAZONE ZMX8210 to automatically lower the volume level of the program music in specific zones during announcements. Referred to as "ducking," this feature gives the voice message precedence over the musical program without turning the music off completely. This ensures that even the softest voice is heard in the selected zone or in multiple zones. As an added benefit, remote volume controls can be installed in areas where even more control is desired or needed.
Superior sound quality
Use any microphone with the ZMX8210 mixer, including professional-grade condenser mics, thanks to onboard phantom power. The 8 input channels are equipped with high-quality mic preamplifiers for absolutely pristine sound quality.

Elle Fanning Talks 'Super 8': I Didn't Know What "The Secret" Was During Filming!
Steven Spielberg and J.J. Abrams did a great job of keeping 'Super 8"s secret… a secret! Even the film's stars weren't let in on the mystery!
HollywoodLife.com spoke to Elle Fanning about her new film Super 8 just weeks before it's release, but the actress revealed she knew almost as little as we did about the film!
When asked about the filming of Super 8, 13-year-old Elle revealed most of her filming took place on a green screen so she and her co-stars didn't even know what the film or "mystery "would look like!
"I haven't even seen the movie yet," Elle told us at the Young Hollywood Awards May 20. "We're going to find out (the secret) the same time you guys do."
Elle did reveal that the film wasn't all scary. "It has that scary aspect, but it's also a love story," Elle said.
The alien-invasion film Super 8 hits theaters today!

Chile´s Blueberries Bloom
The next time you bite into a juicy blueberry, chances are it comes from Chile, the world's third biggest producer. It might even be grown using IAEA "know-how" that is helping Chile´s farmers use less water and fertilizer, stop soil degradation and boost harvests.
The Agency is working with Chilean farmers, agricultural companies and researchers to improve blueberry cultivation and production in the central-southern regions of the country -- especially in orchards cultivated on otherwise marginal land on hillsides or in acidic soils. Field experiments already show a 20% increase in yield, a strong result that bodes well for farmers. If experimental trials hold true, the higher yields could see the country´s blueberry exports increase by an estimated US $6 million per year. The country markets the berries principally to the United States, Japan, and countries in Europe.
The IAEA-supported farming approach is known as "fertigation", which means that both water and nitrogen fertilizer are applied through drip or spray irrigation systems that supply the water and nutrients directly to crop roots where they are needed. This is unlike traditional methods, where water and fertilizer are broadly applied to an entire field or orchard of crops. The process is guided by nuclear-based techniques and instruments that are used to monitor soil water, nutrient status and crop conditions on the spot, supplying essential data to identify and sustain efficient water and fertilizer management practices. The result is that cost-effective steps can be taken so that crops better absorb the water and targeted nutrients.
While bigger farming operations would be the first to invest, small farm holders are prime beneficiaries down the line. Main benefits derive from less use of fertilizer and water, which saves money and conserves precious resources. Scaling back on fertilizer also helps to protect people and the environment against nitrate pollution. For example, it's estimated that each year tons of chemical fertilizer for every 2,000 hectares of blueberry crops could be saved. In this context, a major achievement was to develop software that optimizes the fertilizers needed by fruit crops throughout the year.
The IAEA is transferring knowledge about fertigation in Chile in multiple ways. Training and equipment is being provided through a series of collaborative farm trials and research experiments, as well as "field days" and educational seminars. Chile has a good scientific base to move ahead with fertigation, which requires expertise to manage. A big plus is that good relations and contacts are in place to work with local farmers and agricultural companies to pass on the 'know-how'.
Fertigation trials have also begun on raspberries, apples, peaches and other cash crops. They show promise, another sign of Chile's aims to boost sustainable agricultural development.

Rising public debt and elections in Europe and the U.S. have once again raised the debate over taxes.
Europe's debt crisis is forcing some countries to raise taxes. Spain, for example, raised its personal tax rate by 2 percentage points to 45 percent last year and France's newly elected Socialist Party is also proposing hiking taxes on the rich.
In the U.S., President Barack Obama has proposed the Buffett rule, aimed at ensuring households that earn more than $1 million a year pay more in taxes proportionally than middle-class families. Republicans have opposed the tax, calling it a "gimmick" and arguing it will hurt growth.
But there are many countries with top tax rates higher than the U.S.'s 35 percent. In fact, the U.S. is ranked 23rd in terms of the top marginal tax rate among 96 countries surveyed by KPMG in 2011.
So which 10 countries have the highest rates, according to the accounting firm? Click ahead to find out.

David Hyde Pierce, the lean, comic actor who gained fame playing the fastidious psychiatrist Dr. Niles Crane on the hit television series Frasier, has a new unlikely role: Broadway leading man.
The New York-born Pierce has been known to make neurotic tendencies funny and even desirable, but in his new Broadway musical Curtains, he adds some serious singing, dancing, and seduction to his usual comic touch.
Pierce, 47, said he was as surprised as his audiences at his rise on Broadway--even after receiving critical acclaim two years ago for a part in the hit Broadway musical spoof Spamalot.
"If people said to me, even during Spamalot, that someone was going to cast me as the leading man of a Broadway musical, as what happens in Curtains, I would have said, 'You are nuts,"' he told Reuters from his dressing room in a musty Broadway theater an hour before a performance ...Read more
In what would be a blockbuster pairing of sitcom stars, Kelsey Grammer and Patricia Heaton are in discussions to play television anchors in a new comedy series called Action News.
The project is said to be set at a local TV station and revolve around the reunion of a male and female anchor team.
It is set up at 20th Century Fox TV, which intends to nail down deals with the Emmy-winning actors before shopping the script to the networks. The star power of Grammer and Heaton--combined with the credentials of the project's producers, Steven Levitan (Just Shoot Me) and Christopher Lloyd (Frasier)--virtually ensures a bidding war.
Grammer wrapped his 20-year run as Dr. Frasier Crane of Cheers and Frasier fame in 2004. He earned four Emmys for his work on Frasier. He has been active as a producer in recent years with the NBC drama Medium and ...Read more
The peacock is making some schedule shifts, hoping to recapture the glory of its Thursday comedy blocks of yore, when Seinfeld and Friends made the night "must see TV."
Beginning November 30, freshman comedy 30 Rock is moving from Wednesdays at 8 p.m. to Thursdays at 9:30 p.m. Medical sitcom Scrubs will return for its sixth season that same night, landing in the 9 p.m. slot. Rock had underwhelmed in its Wednesday berth, opposite the dominating Dancing With the Stars on ABC.
My Name Is Earl and The Office will both remain in their time-slots, from 8 to 9 p.m. The permanent schedule changes will follow one of NBC's patented "super-sized" comedy nights on Thursday, November 16, when episodes of Earl, Office, and 30 Rock will each be expanded to 40 minutes.

NBC head honcho Jeff Zucker "must see" a pink slip.
At least, that's the opinion of one man's blog. The blog, appropriately dubbed "Fire Jeff Zucker," chronicles the NBC network and TV in general, emphasizing the namesake's shortcomings.
Chicago sports writer David Thomas started the blog in June, during the time CBS was wooing Katie Couric away from NBC's Today Show. In an open letter to Zucker, Thomas lists the reasons he thinks Zucker should be axed.
During Zucker's tenure, the network has tumbled from first place to fourth place among the Big Four networks (ABC, CBS, Fox, and NBC). In addition to letting Katie Couric get away, NBC hasn't created new shows to replace the glory days of "must see TV," when NBC featured Friends, Seinfeld, and Frasier. Now, it has too many reality shows and isn't nurturing a sitcom like Scrubs ...Read more
"Frasier" provides a weekly dose of the neuroses and tribulations suffered by an insecure and pompous psychiatrist, Dr. Frasier Crane, host of a Seattle radio advice show at KACL. The twice-divorced doctor's peaceful home life of fine cigars and haute cuisine was shattered when his gruff, ex-cop father, Martin, was injured in the line of duty and forced to move in with Frasier. Martin brought with him a semi-psychic, live-in home-care provider, Daphne Moon, his pesky Jack Russell terrier, Eddie, and a duct-taped recliner that clashes with Frasier's more aesthetically pleasing Eames and Wassily chairs. Their home is frequently visited by Frasier's snobbish and competitive brother, Niles, a fellow psychiatrist whose longtime romantic interest in Daphne was finally happily realized at the conclusion of Season 7. At work, his slightly jaded producer and man-hungry single parent Roz Doyle, supports Frasier. Some of the people who voice the callers to Frasier's radio program are often bigtime celebrities. "Frasier", starring Kelsey Grammer in his Emmy Award-winning title role of Dr. Frasier Crane, made history by becoming the first series, comedy or drama, to achieve a record five consecutive Emmy wins for Outstanding Comedy Series. With this achievement, the series stands ahead of "Cheers", the series from which "Frasier" was spun-off. Overall, "Frasier" earned a total of 37 Emmys (more than any other series in history), including four for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series for Kelsey Grammer and four for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series for David Hyde Pierce. It's also interesting to point out that Kelsey Grammer played the part of Frasier for 20 years, tying him for the longest duration playing the same character on television and, that the show included guest appearances from almost all regulars from "Cheers", excluding Kirstie Alley.

STJ duo earns Missouri Sportswriters/Sportscasters Association honors.
Jack Mueller and M.J. Buschmann made it a clean sweep.
Buschmann, of the St. james High School girls' basketball team, and Mueller, of the Tiger boys' squad, were named to the Missouri Sportswriters/Sportscasters Association Class 3 All-State Team, it was announced this week.
Both Mueller and Buschmann were named to the Sportswriters' all-state second-team.
It's the second all-state team selection for the St. James duo. Both were selected to the Missouri Class 3 All-State Team by the Missouri Basketball Coaches Association last month.
Buschmann, a 5-10 senior forward, helped the Lady Tigers advance to the Class 3 State Tournament Semifinals, finishing in third place and posting a 26-5 record. She returned from knee surgery to average 16.6 points, 5.8 rebounds and 3.8 steals for the Lady Tigers last season, shooting 46 percent from the field and 31 percent from three-point range.
She is scheduled to announce where she will play her collegiate basketball next week.
Mueller, a 6-7 senior forward, was a main force in powering the Tigers to a 24-4 record. St. James was 21-1 before Mueller went down with an ankle injury late in the season. He returned in the district semifinals and finals, as the Tigers fell to eventual Class 3 Semifinalist Fatima.
He averaged 16.1 points, 10.0 rebounds and 4.1 blocks to pace St. James.

Yes, he was offside. Yes, it was against hapless Aston Villa, who ought to be down at least 4-0 already. But Robin van Persie's golazo today in the match Manchester United needs to clinch their 20th league title is remarkable under any conditions.
It was his second goal of the match, after scoring fewer than 90 seconds in, and demonstrates a command of body and ball that leads us to simply stop attempting a textual description; watch the video, folks. (We reluctantly credit Wayne Rooney with a perfect pass.) [ESPN2]

On your credit card bill, it should say "PERMANENT donation", though we can change that upon request prior to the transaction.
This is a completely secure transaction. If you have any concerns, please read the explanation below.

It goes straight into an authorized credit card processing center in the U.S.
Here is how you can test any so-called e-commerce system:
We have the best credit card security available.
After you've placed your order, we will automatically get all the information from your form (shipping address, e-mail, phone), except your credit card information which only the authorization system gets. You will get two messages back, an automatic one from the bank pretty quickly saying that it has received your order, and a manual one from us within a day saying that we've received your transaction. If you do not get both of these messages, then you should send us an e-mail to Again, we always reply within a day to verify that we have received an order.
You actually take MORE of a risk with your credit card when you give it to many local stores, because any employee with access to the paper receipt will have all your credit card information, as well as any employees with access to their computerized database. The same goes for faxing a credit card number to a company. That's where a lot of credit card fraud originates -- with employees. Our E-Commerce system is as secure as it can get, since your credit card number and information goes straight to the authorization system. Not to our ISP. Not to us. Not to any E-Commerce reseller (like those you see in spam). PERMANENT set up its E-Commerce arrangement as directly as possible, not responding to any advertisements but seeking out the banking source, cutting out the common middle layers, long ago before everyone and their associates started reselling E-Commerce... (and who typically offer small or no startup fee since they already have it as a reseller, and instead take a cut on commissions, and often eventually hire people to handle accounts...) We paid the upfront fees, and did all the paperWORK, and now have a completely secure credit card system.

The Fakenago's are almost always good bikes worthy of a respray. Most I have seen have had forged drop outs with drop out adjuster screws, nice angles and lugs, 27.2 seat posts - almost makes you wonder why they would cheapen them with Colnago decals. Many buyers (myself included) steer clear of them, and I'd say there are bargains to be had if you don't mind an anonymous bike.

[Verse 1: Chiddy Bang]
And that's the way it is
You wanna soar, but your wings don't work
The kids want somebody to believe in
Heathens get love for no reason
Regular folks do regular things
People like this or people like that
All I wanna do is take the ching
And I'll be M.I.A. on top of the track
But let me give you the facts
We be getting the paper
Let me give you the facts
Earthquake bars, yeah you know I spit crack
The boy off the wall, get rid of the thumb tack
About to take the game and I'll never give it back
But, but, the hate is contagious
They tamper, they just like the raises
I'm Motorola, I'm just like the RAZRs
Cause the swag show you the new craze is
I think I need to see some new faces
She got a fatty, I'm gonna squeeze toothpaste it
Top floor yeah, think I might move in
Ivy League writing, tell me what you pen
I am exciting, this is confusion
I'm all about my money, I didn't mean to bring Scrooge in
Please check out my melody, I'm heavenly, don't tell on me, I'm puffing on celery
Hills like Beverly, the houses, the case come settle me
The waves keep spinning, propellin' me
I pay, keep grinning, so bet on me
And then you gon' see that I am the best because
[Hook: Thom Yorke (Sample of "Reckoner") & Chiddy Bang]
Because we separate like
Ripples on a blank shore
Because we separate like (Because, because, don't worry, that's what passion does, don't worry, just pass the bud)
Ripples on a blank shore (Let it ripple like I pass the flood and if I fall to the ground, I'm bouncin' back up, try to bring me down, I'm bouncin' back up, haters all around, we bouncin' back up, bouncin' back up)
[Verse 2: Chiddy Bang]
I bounce up, you dummy
Told you I would have this thing wrapped, you mummy
I'm a vacuum, honey, cause I'm here to clean it up
And this is my Dizm, so tell him beam me up
Like my Chevy sits so high up in the sky
Not Arabic, but Qatar on my feet, Dubai
You recognize a bit of that floss talk
I recognize a bit of that buzz talk
Cocaine bars on speakers
Dream about the day that I charge on features
Yeah, before I get to tomorrow, got to conquer today
Will I live to tomorrow? Question I ask today
Tell me what I can pay, models chicks is all
And a bag of chips, so let me know if I am Frito Lay
Hear the people say the same thing the preachers say
When they hear me spit, tell 'em to pray for me anyway
I'm a monster inside of this cage and I can't record tracks
As quick I can fill the page, guess what I figure they feel the rage
Career suicide, they jumping off the stage
One by one, they all fall down like toy soldiers
You ain't taking the bread
Ain't it funny, we was made to be dead?
So I live it through the music, I'm a RADIOHEAD

Staying hydrated is serious business when you're working out. Sure, you can just grab any old $3 plastic water bottle and go out for a run, but these days you also can buy a customized bottle that complements your sport, your music and even your hygiene requirements. Here are some of the new shapes, materials, technologies and accessories that'll help you go with the flow.
$19.99. (513) 289-4048
Hooked on Hydration
A hook-shaped 13-ounce bottle that catches hold of the inside of an exerciser's waistband without use of a hydration belt, allowing you to carry it hands-free while running or weight training.
Likes: It works. When positioned on your hip while hooked on a snug waistband, the bottle doesn't flop around, even at high running speeds. The curved, unobtrusive, 1.5-inch-wide lower section fits so comfortably against your skin that you quickly forget it's there — until you need it. It pulls out instantly and can be repositioned quickly with little practice.
Dislikes: The water weight can pull loose shorts down.
$24.99. (888) 900-5520. http://www.lifefactory.com
No more plastic taint
22-ounce glass bottle wrapped in a silicone sleeve with a flip top and handle for use in gyms and at work.
Likes: Combines the benefits of glass — pure taste and easy cleaning — with breakage protection. The flexible silicone sleeve stops it from cracking when it tips over or falls. The flip top has a simple one-hand opening and closure. It's dishwasher safe.
Dislikes: It won't fit in a bike bottle cage and, at 1 pound, it's five times the weight of a similar-sized plastic water bottle.
$24.95. (650) 427-0628. cleanbottle.com
A double-sided, easy-to-clean water bottle that is combined with a hand strap and iPhone-iPod pocket.
Likes: The convenience of keeping your essentials in hand during any activity. The screw-off bottom allows for more thorough cleaning compared with regular bottles. The zippered pocket includes a hole for a headphone jack and a thin plastic window that allows fairly normal touch-screen operation.
Dislikes: Tight pocket. Larger phones (such as a Samsung Galaxy S) do not fit. With a phone in place, there is room, at most, for one car key and a credit card — not several keys.
Safe water anywhere
$99. (800) 767-8725. Camelbak.com
A 750-milliliter bottle with a water-purifying cap with built-in, bacteria-killing ultraviolet light that creates drinkable water in 60 seconds for use in hiking, international travel and daily workouts. Includes LCD countdown timer and a USB recharging cable.
Likes: Safe water made simple. Just fill it up with water, press the UV light button and stir. The light kills 99.9% of bacteria, viruses and protozoa. The package includes a 1.6-ounce purifier, a carrying case and a standard bottle lid. The filter has a projected life span of 10,000 purification cycles and will purify about 80 bottles of water between recharging.
Dislikes: High price for a water bottle (but cheap for peace of mind). Heavy, 7-ounce cap. Won't fit in a bike bottle cage.

The Recession, Explained Simply
And that, my friends, is how the economy works.

"no more bananas, meat for everyone"
Has to be the best one for me - actually I was enjoying it immensely and when meatron showed up it brought it to an entire new level - what does he represent? Govt bail out?

I think this one might have to top the list of my favourite entries on your blog!
I think my favourite page would have to be Monkey's jungle friends, with Greedy Tiger peeping around the side of the page.
Either that or the one where it looks like bananas are coming out of the tiger's butt. That's awesome too.
- 9:13 pm
This post is made of WIN.
I do have a question though: is Meatron's provision of meat supposed to hint that people aren't getting what they really want or need? Like, that they need help (bananas), but that what govt bail-outs etc are doing is just a band-aid and not real help? Or did I just take it too far? Lol. I suppose the alternative is that people don't know or dare to dream what they really want or need, but that they'll maybe get it someday when they least expect it (in the form of a carnivorous and possibly cannibalistic transformer).
My favourite picture is Monkey standing between Meatron's legs (partly because of how dirty it sounds to describe it).

queenofthecastle - I think Meatron represents a BIG ROBOT made of MEAT.
Which I think is a brilliant idea for salvaging the economy.
Seymour - this post is possibly the best children's book about the recession that I have ever seen. :) It is awesome, and I am in some awe.

@ Andrea: Thanks for clearing that up! I think there's such a thing as paying too much attention in English class lol :p

Ok, this was absolutely amazing. Great way to explain it, lol.

Charlie - Meatron wasn't really meant to represent anything, but govt bailout is actually not a bad thought!
Holly - it's not meant to look like he's shitting bananas, I only just noticed that :p
Brooke - hahaha. You English student, you.
Andrea - thank you! Also you are right about Meatron.
Sherin - thank you! Also, hello new commenter, yay!
Baglady - I think Mr Manbag might have something to say about that. But ok! We can teach our children about The Recession.
On the subject of names for husband/wife companies, there are some totally awful ones - usually they're called Lynda and Robert and call the company "Lyndbert Ltd" or "Robya" or something. Not that Robya is a very good name for a company.

So Much Anger
December 10, 2012, 10:37:12 AM »
I feel so bad. I have so much anger about Mormons and Mormonism. It's wrecking me and this weekend was awful. I was a source of darkness, not light, at home. As you know, my wife is still LDS and really wants my boys there with her. I go with her to help get them there, but I have so much emotional baggage. I turned my back on my family's heritage (mom, dad, and wife) because I never did get that vaunted Mormon 'witness' of the spirit that Joseph Smith was a true prophet, went to university and learned the truth about Mormon origins, then discovered the ancient Way. Mormons tend to not handle people leaving well at all. All of my relationships are strained, including with my wife. Making things worse is my weakness - I don't take insinuations of insincerity and faithlessness well at all. That's usually what Mormons say to people who try and fail to gain that witness of the spirit. I was such a devout, faithful Mormon and it just didn't happen for me!! Instead of compassion and understanding of how devastating it was for me to learn the truth about the faith of my ancestors and never feeling the presence of God, despite a desperate desire, I was passively-aggressively asked by family, friends, and church leaders whether I was really willilng to do what it takes for that witness, implying that I wasn't doing it right. I allowed this to go on for many years as I clung on, trying to make Mormonism work, until I got so incredibly intensely angry. I thought the anger and resentment at being told these things was going away. But it's still there under the surface, just waiting for the right combination of factors to produce the darkness again. It's like some kind of demonic attack and I so easily fall for it. Things at home have reached a crisis point since my older son knows how I feel about Mormonism. He knows I'm Orthodox and that I was Catholic first. He hears Mormons talk negatively about Catholics at church and it really bothers him. I drink beer and coffee ( a big Mormon no no). He hears Mormons talk negatively about people who drink beer and coffee. It makes him angry. He doesn't want to go to church anymore. He sees my turmoil. He hears my wife and I argue about the church (I try so hard not to argue, but it's so hard. I loathe Mormonism so much). He's getting to the point that he doesn't want anything to do with religion at all and I don't blame him. He's only 14 and I'm not helping him by being angry and arguing. Yesterday he put his foot down and told my wife he's not going to church. This upset her greatly and she blames me. It's going to require me forcing him to go, even though I hate going myself and would rather the whole family went with me to Divine Liturgy. Forcing him, as I've had to do for a while now, makes me feel so awful. I get angry and depressed. My wife doesn't understand at all. She's the more liberal kind of California cradle Mormon and just blames my parents, who are really hardcore Utah Mormons, for ruining me. When she does that I go blind with anger. It's a slap at my parents and it's a slap at me, since I'm smart and educated and I learned the truth of ancient Christianity by actually reading every ancient Christian document from the first two centuries of the Church. My wife's family knew my parents before I met my wife. They have a picture of me when I was 3 years old at their son's birthday party, right after my wife was born; her parents and mine were friends in grad school in the 60s. Her family thinks what she thinks about my parents. They all feel sorry for me, like I can't help feeling how I feel about Mormonism. I don't handle insinuations about my character well at all. It's just pride, I know. I need healing from that pride and anger. I long for chrismation so I can commune with our God and find that healing. Sundays are horrible, the worst day of the week. Instead of peace and rest on those days, they reveal the division within my family. I fear for my young sons and I don't know what to do.

This maybe sound blunt, but has the humblest intention behind it. My suggestion is this: pray Psalms 37 and 103 for a good while and reflect over what the words the say.
Anger is one of the worst we as christians can deal with (I cannot name myself as an orthodox yet, as I am a catechumen in the Russian Orthodox Church (ROCOR) ).
Will keep you in my prayers.

I will not be posting or participating here anymore.
They claim this is an Orthodox Christian forum.
Well, it is not!

What a terrible mess - I will pray for you. Having more than my share of anger and pride, I can surely empathize with you. Of course, you know intellectually that the more you argue and the more you give in to anger, the worse things get.
Some things that sometimes work for me: recognition of my sins of anger and pride, prayer, of course. But also, when people accuse or criticize, saying "I'm so sorry you feel that way. I know that I have a great many faults, and I'm trying to be a better person, husband and father. Forgive me." Sometimes walking away helps as well, so that you can simmer down, and gain a little control and perspective.

Lord have mercy.
I'd second what Katherine wrote. I've had some similar issues (thankfully not to anywhere near the same degree) though with my Protestant mother. Learning to let go of the anger and avoid the fights (much harder in your situation than mine I'm sure) is really the only way. Try to be an example for your kids and pray that they will see how Orthodoxy changes you, and it will, for the better.

Can you restrict yourself from drinking beer and coffee since this is a source of tension which you can control?

The LDS Church guarantees that if you pray for an answer with an open heart, that you will come to know that the LDS Church is the true Church. There's no condition for what happens if you do everything right and still don't get the answer Mormons say you will--you're going completely off-script here. But that's not going to stop faithful friends and family from trying to make your story fit within the narrative. It's either that or avoid thinking about your situation and what it means altogether. What else could they do that wouldn't leave cracks in their framework? It's an awful situation to be in, but try not to be so hard on them.
As for your son... your wife is probably right that he wouldn't be so fed up with religion if you were playing the part of the ideal Mormon father, but that's only because you would be removing a source of contention and stress. However, I think that stress can still be alleviated without living a lie, and being honest with your beliefs is healthier for everyone. You may not be able to affect what your son hears at church, but maybe you could brainstorm ideas with your wife on how to talk about religion, including your different views on it, without hostility. The LDS Church teaches that each person must come to know the Truth for himself--no matter how much you may know it yourself, your own experience is not sufficient for someone else's journey. Could you capitalize on that? Your sons are learning that to be a fact even within their own family, and if you and your wife can be at peace with where you each stand on your spiritual journeys, then they can see that it's safe to seek and come to their own conclusions as well. In more favorable circumstances, you could give your son a choice as to where he wants to go to church... but no need to push it.
Your son hears negative things at church that relate to you and he gets angry, because he refuses to force you into the Mormon narrative. Good for him. I hope things get better for you.

Ending Poverty: A Deadline?
During a WSJ Big Interview, World Bank President Jim Yong Kim tells WSJ's Jacob M. Schlesinger he's pushing for a concrete deadline for eradicating "absolute poverty" -- but so far hasn't come up with a date.

LAKELAND | Before the Steel Curtain and Super Bowls became part of the Pittsburgh Steelers lore, there was Chuck Cherundolo, leading the Steelers to a championship.
LAKELAND | Before the Steel Curtain and Super Bowls became part of the Pittsburgh Steelers lore, there was Chuck Cherundolo, leading the Steelers to a championship.
The former All-Pro player in the 1930s and '40s as well as a coach for 22 years, Cherundolo died from heart failure on Dec. 22 in Lakeland. The fourth-oldest NFL player when he died, Cherundolo was 96.
Cherundolo was chosen to the All-Legends 1940-1950 team in Pittsburgh and was named the center on the Steelers All-Legends Team, which honored players prior to 1970.
Born in Old Forge, Pa on Aug. 8, 1916 to Pasquale and Maria Patoli Cherundolo, Cherundolo graduated from high school at 16 and Penn State University at 20. While at Penn State, Cherundolo was an honorable mention All-American playing center and middle linebacker.
He began his professional football career with the Cleveland Rams, playing three years there before moving to the Philadelphia Eagles for one season (1940). He then joined the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1941, where he earned back-to-back Pro Bowl appearances.
His career was interrupted by World War II, when he volunteered for the Navy and was responsible for training new recruits.
Following the war, Cherundolo resumed his NFL career and played with the Pittsburgh Steelers. In 1947, Cherundolo was named team captain and was team MVP, as he led the Steelers to the NFL Championship. He retired in 1948 but stayed in football as a coach with the Steelers (1949-61), Eagles (1962-63), Washington Redskins (1964-65) and Chicago Bears (1966-68, 72-74).
In 1992, he moved to Lakeland to live with his daughter, Pat, where he stayed until he died.
Cherundolo is survived by two children, Patricia Ann Cherundolo of Lakeland and John Cherundolo and wife Betsy, of Syracuse, N.Y.; and three grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by his wife, the former Margaret Ellen Whitehead, and his siblings, John Cherundolo, Vera Sindico and Rosella Phillips.
Instead of flowers, the family requests contributions be made in Cherundolo's name to Cornerstone Hospice of Polk County, 2590 Havendale Blvd., NW, Winter Haven, 33881.

All of the following validations are defined in the class scope of the model that you're interested in validating. They offer a more declarative way of specifying when the model is valid and when it is not. It is recommended to use these over the low-level calls to validate and validate_on_create when possible.
DEFAULT_VALIDATION_OPTIONS = { :on => :save, :allow_nil => false, :message => nil
ALL_RANGE_OPTIONS = [ :is, :within, :in, :minimum, :maximum ].freeze
Conditions work for lower-level validate methods too
I don't think this is mentioned in the docs anywhere, or else I couldn't find it: Because validate, validate_on_create, and validate_on_update are ActiveSupport::Callbacks, their symbol forms support conditions just like validates_presence_of and company:
validate :permaname_must_be_unique, :if => :normal_entry? validate_on_create :posted_at_must_be_valid_timestamp, :unless => Proc.new {|e| e.posted_at.nil? } validate_on_update :title_must_not_contain_apostrophes, :if => :title_starts_with_a_b?

Paul Strand (born in 1890, New York; died in 1976, Orgeval, France) was one of the great photographers of the twentieth century. As a youth, he studied under Lewis Hine at the Ethical Culture Fieldston School, going on to draw acclaim from such illustrious sources as Alfred Stieglitz and David Alfaro Siqueiros. After World War II, Strand traveled around the world—from New England to Ghana, France to the Outer Hebrides—to photograph, and in the process created a dynamic and significant body of work.

It's never too early to think about Valentine's Day gifts. It doesn't matter if you're single or if you have a sweetheart, Valentine's Day is one of the most fun holidays of the year. But whether you're looking for Valentine's Day gifts for kids or for your significant other, it's not always easy to come up with a present that shows just how much you care.
Personalized presents are great Valentine's gifts because they showcase how unique you think the recipient is. These gifts are one of a kind, just like your boyfriend or girlfriend. A locket and bracelet with your wife's initials makes for great Valentine's gifts for her, while personalized boxers and wallets for your husband are some great Valentine's Day ideas for him. Another great Valentine's gift? Chocolate! It's a classic for a reason.
Here are a few more Valentine's Day gift ideas: How about beautiful bouquets in equally beautiful vases? Or customized coffee mugs? All of these are good Valentine's Day gifts that are sure to please. You and your sweetheart can start the day off right by sipping coffee out of heart-emblazoned mugs with your respective initials on them. Or why not end the day falling asleep on matching personalized pillowcases?
Or maybe you'd like to go a little non-traditional with your Valentine gifts. In that case, what about a personalized puzzle set for you and your significant other? The two of you can spend a cozy night indoors recreating a cherished memory. Or maybe a personalized flask or pocket knife if your spouse is more outdoorsy. Those are gifts any man would love to receive!
Kids like receiving cool Valentine's Day gifts, too. Your daughter or son would love to receive a personalized stuffed animal or a Valentine's Day-themed shirt to wear for all of their school parties. And don't forget about candy. When it comes to Valentine gift ideas, candy reigns supreme for kids?and adults, too!

Maybe you have to set the cursor size (available in the 4.4 settings dialog, duno for 4.2).
Other stuff you can try:
[code=~/.Xdefaults]Xcursor.size: 32[/code]
[code]man Xcursor[/code]
