Pierzynski Would Like You To Know That The White Sox Occasionally Drink "Rally Beer" During GamesJack Dickey10/12/11 4:00pmFiled to: Chicago White SoxAJ PierzynskiBoozeBoston Red SoxRally beerMlb17EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink White Sox catcher A.J. Pierzynski, everyone's favorite bleached-blond gnat (and World Series broadcaster), apparently wanted to stick up for the Red Sox players, bullied by the owners and the Boston Globe. So he went on The Dan Patrick Show and told everyone the White Sox occasionally drink in the clubhouse. Rally beer, you see. Per the Chicago Tribune: Advertisement Advertisement "Yes, absolutely I have before," Pierzynski told The Dan Patrick Show. "Sometimes you're just really struggling and you just say, 'Hey, you know what, I need something to calm me down and let's have a beer.' A couple of us will do it together, and sometimes it works out."It's just, sometimes you just need a rally beer. If you're in extra innings and you're in about the 15th inning and you really need to get going again, that sometimes works for you."I mean, sure, why not? Although the Globe only accused the Sox's starters of drinking on their off-days. Then again, if off-day drinking drags a team to 90-72, perhaps in-game drinking could push them all the way to 79-83. Or maybe it's totally irrelevant! You pick.Pierzynski on clubhouse drinking: 'Sometimes you need a rally beer' [Chicago Tribune]Reply17 repliesLeave a reply

6th November 2007 Artist Profile » TACKS, THE BOY DISASTER play their first ever UK show tomorrow (Wed 7 Nov). They are set to play 229 on Great Portland Street and are supported by Effi Briest and Inward Eye. All these bands have travelled from afar, so please come along to support your foreign cousins!
TACKS, THE BOY DISASTER have a sound too expansive to be labeled purely as indie rock. Tacks, the Boy Disaster offer thoughtful and imaginative lyricism, solid musical hooks and rich instrumentation reminiscent of late-'60s/early-'70s pop. Yet the band, whose moniker is derived from a minor character in a forgotten childrenÄö?Ñ?¥s book, has managed to reconcile their brilliant pop sensibility and familiarity with their taste for the unexpected. These little musical surprises, ranging from a juxtaposition of melancholy lyrics with sunshine-y harmonies ?Ä la Harry Nilsson to whirling piano lines are what set TacksÄö?Ñ?¥ sound apart from their peers. The Austin Chronicle called Oh, Beatrice, 'a mixture of ecstasy and mania', comparing TacksÄö?Ñ?¥ sound to Bowie, Beach Boys, and the early Factory Records releases.

February 17, 2012by Darren FluscheThanks, in part, to the powerful advocacy of bicyclists, members of Congress from both parties are speaking up for bicycling and walking. Bi-partisan amendments to improve the House and Senate transportation bills are being submitted in the both chambers of Congress.
February 16, 2012by Darren Flusche"Everybody who says [writing the transportation bill] is like making sausage, it's a lot uglier than that," said Barbara Boxer.
February 14, 2012by Andy ClarkeToday, we wrote to League members and supporters in a few key House districts to ask for their help in getting the votes needed to pass the Petri/Johnson amendment.
February 14, 2012by Darren FluscheHappy Valentine's Day. We love our bikes and we're sure that you love yours, too. Here are a few videos to celebrate. The man who lived on his bike Pure joy. "Thumbs up for rock and roll."
February 9, 2012by Andy ClarkeThank you for responding to another round of attacks on bicycling and walking. Your voices are being heard on Capitol Hill: House and Senate offices are hearing loud and clear that the current proposals for a new highway bill just aren't acceptable. Both bills threaten to end 20 years of progress in promoting more walkable and bikeable communities.
February 6, 2012by Andy ClarkeSpeaker John Boehner's weekend claim that 25% of the highway dollars are "siphoned off for non-economic projects – such as beautification and bikepaths" came as a bit of a shock.
February 6, 2012by Darren FluscheIn January, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Office of Safety placed Road Diets on the official list of Proven Safety Countermeasures. States are actively encouraged to use the listed safety countermeasures and FHWA provides guidance on their application.
February 3, 2012by Andy ClarkeTuesday evening, I rode home from work in shorts. It was the last day of January, well after dark, and the temperature was still over 60 degrees. To be honest, though, the weather is the least crazy thing that's been happening here in Washington this week.
February 2, 2012by Darren FluscheRepresentative Tom Petri (R-WI) and his colleagues Timothy Johnson (R-IL), and Frank LoBiondo (R-NJ) showed themselves today to be strong and brave defenders of biking and walking, a balanced transportation system, and livable communities. Thanks also to Daniel Lipinski (D-IL) for co-sponsoring the pro-biking amendment and all of the democrats who votes for it. The amendment lost by just two...
February 1, 2012by Darren FluscheUPDATE II: Petri-Johnson-Lipinsky Amendment failed by two votes, 27 yea, 29 no. Thank you to everyone who contacted their members to support this amendment. We came very close. This is a major set-back for bicycling and walking and a balance transportation system, but we will keep up the fight. UPDATE: You can watch the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee mark up the bill live right now...

As the sun sets on another Chelsea manager's tenure at Stamford Bridge, a new wave of apprehension concerning the Premier League and its future must be confronted.
Roman Abramovich's decision to prematurely end the Di Matteo era at Chelsea has left Blues fans with a sour taste in their mouths and yet again, illustrates the power of foreign owners at English clubs. Like a frustrated child, unwilling to share their most precious toy, Chelsea's Russian billionaire owner has catapulted a popular managerial figure and a club legend out of the door, holding it open for none other than Rafa Benitez to take temporary charge.
The worry for the many football purists in this country is that 12 of the current Premier League clubs are majority owned by foreign bigwigs who have implemented new structures and demands on their respective teams in order to achieve instant success, a near impossible task in England's top flight.
[cat_link cat="premiership" type="list"]
While the financial benefits of foreign ownership are clear for all to see, long term ambitions and historical traditions are put on the back burner. Tom Hicks and George Gillett are perfect examples of how foreign ownership can nearly destroy a national institution like Liverpool. With complete disregard for fan opinion, the two Americans made false promises and derisory financial decisions for personal gain, failing to see the thousands of fans who spend their hard earned money to watch the club they love.
The Glazer family, while having more success than the Anfield American duo, have disconnected themselves from the fans at Old Trafford, by treating the team as a business venture, lacking passion and desire for the club's history and traditions.
These examples are comparable with the current turbulence at Stamford Bridge in the fact that owners are failing to listen to the fans' desires. It also seems that the manager no longer makes the decisions at a club like Chelsea. Granted, Abramovich funds much of the transfer activity at the club but he has no right to overrule a manager who is qualified for the job and knows the game inside and out. It is highly unlikely that the current uproar at Chelsea will turn into a catastrophic mess a la Hicks and Gillett, but what is fairly obvious however, is that this power shift could rip out the foundations of football from its very core.
Take a look at Wigan Athletic and Dave Whelan. The club are now an established Premier League side, whose fans are relatively satisfied and whose manager is now highly rated. Whelan does not interfere with what he doesn't know. He has a phenomenal relationship with both the manager and fans and runs the club in a certain way because he genuinely cares; he has Wigan in his heart. Despite his occasional ill-thought media outbursts, Whelan is a perfect example of how a club should be run and why owners like this have been successful for decades.
Concerns from established Premier League managers regarding foreign owners have been prevalent in the media for the last two years. In 2011 Spurs manager at the time Harry Redknapp spoke of his worries:
"With more foreign owners coming in, it's going to be scary. Teams are looking to sell their clubs. Everton are looking to sell. The bloke from the local butcher's ain't going to buy it any more, is he? That's the way the game's gone now.
"English people don't have the money. The money is in Russia, the Arab countries, America. When they get control, they will do what they want with our game. Anything can happen."
With the Chelsea saga validating Redknapp's comments, the future of the Premier League looks worryingly bleak. Globalisation may reign in the next few years as the race to catch up commercially with American Sports begins.
Will Abramovich's impatience be the start of a domino effect of owners taking full control over their clubs? At the moment, it seems like anything is possible.

Tajh Boyd threw three touchdowns and Andre Ellington ran for 165 yards as Clemson held on for a 35-27 victory over Wofford on Saturday.
The Tigers (2-0) hadn't faced the Football Championship Subdivision school since 2001 - and might wait that long again after this one. Clemson's defense struggled to stop the Terriers' triple-option attack and it wasn't until Clemson's Rennie Moore stopped Donovan Johnson on fourth-and-2 with 3:30 left that the Tigers could rest easy against Wofford (1-1), the defending Southern Conference co-champions.
Boyd had touchdown throws of 42 yards to Martavis Bryant, 38 yards to Sammy Watkins and 17 yards to DeAndre Hopkins. Ellington added a 74-yard TD run, the longest of his career. Ellington's total yards were one short of his career high, set last season against Georgia Tech.
Things will get more difficult next week when the defending BCS champion, Auburn, comes to Death Valley.
Still, the Tigers were happy to get away 2-0 for the second straight season - something they hadn't accomplished since 2000 and 2001.
The Tigers took the lead for good, 28-24, on Boyd's 5-yard touchdown run with 7:54 left in the third quarter. Wofford got within a point after Christian Reed's 38-yard field goal five minutes later, but could not come closer.
Boyd finished 18 of 29 for 261 yards. He also had four sacks in his second game running things for new offensive coordinator Chad Morris.
Clemson called on young players like Watkins and tailback Mike Bellamy to spark a second-half surge and power past Troy, 43-19, last week. The Tigers had hoped to carry that momentum against the Terriers and put them away in a hurry.
Instead, Wofford's pesky triple-option attack had the Tigers' inexperienced defense on its heels much of the opening quarter. After Clemson fullback Chad Diehl was stopped on fourth-and-1 at midfield, the Terriers took just five plays to break on top as Mitch Allen finished the drive with a 27-yard TD run.
Wofford kept it up two series later when Brenton Bersin ran 20 yards beyond the closest defender for an all-too-easy 66-yard scoring catch.
The Terriers used some surprise on their final score of the opening half when punter Kasey Redfern scrambled 28 yards for a first down on fourth-and-3 - Wofford punted fewer than four times a game last season - and a Clemson personal foul pushed the ball to the Tigers 13.
Breitenstein, the Southern Conference offensive player of the year last season, capped the drive with 1-yard touchdown run and a 21-13 lead.
Clemson wasn't done in the opening half and got a little help from the Terriers. Boyd hit DeAndre Hopkins with a 17-yard pass on second-and-20 and Wofford jumped offsides a play later to keep the Tigers' drive going.
Boyd then delivered a well-thrown ball to Watkins between two defenders that the freshmen snatched from the air and took into the end zone. Hopkins converted a two-point play to tie things at 21.
Wofford's last lead came when it opened the second half with Reed's 24-yard field goal.
Allen finished with 92 of the Terriers' 272 yards rushing. Wofford led the FCS in rushing last season.
The game, played a day before the 10-year anniversary of 9/11, honored the military with a 21-gun salute, a flyover and a performance by The Citadel's Summerall Guard silent precision drill team.

No goal. (Photo credit: Mitchell Layton)
EVEN LATER UPDATE 12/12 1PM: Per Bob McKenzie, Alex Semin has been fined for his crosscheck on COL's John-Michael Liles, and will play tonight against NYR.
UPDATE 12/11 11:50PM: Dmitry Chesnokov heard that Alex Semin will not be suspended.
Let's get the hell out of town. The Washington Capitals have lost five games in a row, four of them at home base. The Colorado Avalanche brought their fast-paced offense to town as Washington tried to re-awake theirs. Despite showing more effort than in recent games, the Caps failed to stop, drop, shut em' down, open up shop.
Kevin Shattenkirk got lucky with an early goal that Michal Neuvirth should have stopped. Mike Knuble responded with his 250th career goal, a typical Knuble score from inches out. Tom Poi was woefully out of position, allowing Ryan Wilson to waltz in and score the go-ahead goal. Piling on was Paul Stasny, who converted on the powerplay. Matt Hendricks launched a comeback with a no-looker from the crease, but the home team ran out of time. Avs beat Caps 3-2.

America's First National Cemetery
Buried here, along with hundreds of congressmen and various Indian chiefs, are Mathew Brady, John Philip Sousa, and J. Edgar Hoover
June/july 1982 | Volume 33, Issue 4
Elbridge Gerry of Massachusetts—who inspired the term "gerrymander" for the redrawing of an election district—succeeded to Clinton's office; two years later he died in his carriage on the way to the Senate. Madison had lost Vice Presidents back to back. Gerry followed Clinton to Congressional, but unlike his predecessor, who was removed to his home state of New York, he stayed. Gerry's memorial, an ornate marble pyramid capped with urn and flame, bears the inscription: "It is the duty of every citizen, though he may have but one day to live, to devote that day to the good of his country."
A few steps away from Gerry's tomb stands the crumbling stone marking the grave of Tobias Lear, personal secretary to George Washington. During the Barbary Wars he served as consul, negotiating for the release of American prisoners. His decision to pay the pirates tribute was politically unpopular in a time marked by the reckless heroics of Stephen Decatur. Lear, his diplomatic career finished, took a minor post in government as an accountant. People crossed the street to avoid him. He died a suicide.
Perhaps the most evocative inscription in the cemetery is that of the Choctaw Chief Pushmatahaw: "When I am gone, let the big guns be fired over me." His dying request was granted. The day after Christmas, 1824, minute guns thundered on Capitol Hill, echoed by three musket volleys at graveside. Two thousand people attended the funeral, led by Andrew Jackson; Pushmatahaw and his braves had fought beside Old Hickory at New Orleans.
Pushmatahaw died while in Washington negotiating payment for tribal lands. His Choctaw delegation charged the government about seventy-five hundred dollars for living expenses; more than a quarter of the money went for liquor. Although it was whispered that Pushmatahaw died from drink, the medical diagnosis was croup.
Indians seeking redress of abuses journeyed to Washington at considerable risk. Scarlet Crow, a Santee Sioux chief from Minnesota, was kidnaped while strolling the streets of the capital. Although the government paid a ransom for the chief's release, he was killed anyway. His body was taken to Congressional Cemetery. Yellow Wolf, a Kiowa warrior from Colorado Territory, died of pneumonia only a week after shaking hands with President Lincoln. He was buried in Congressional Cemetery wearing the Thomas Jefferson Indian peace medal given to his tribe by Lewis and Clark.
Not all the Indians entombed there received elaborate funerals, however. Taza, son of Cochise, was even deprived of a tombstone after his death from pneumonia in 1876. The Indian agent in charge had failed to order one before leaving the city to get married. Taza's grave remained unmarked until a few years ago, when members of the American Indian Society of Washington donated a granite headstone bearing his likeness.
Not traditional granite or marble memorials but sandstone cenotaphs- empty tombs—most distinguish Congressional. They also justify the use of the burial ground's popular name over its proper one—Washington Cemetery. Congress commissioned Benjamin Latrobe to design the cenotaphs as a means of honoring congressmen who died in office, whether they were buried at Congressional or not. Mindful of costs, the famed architect devised a plain Egyptian Revival monument, one that stonecutters could turn out quickly and cheaply.
Frances Trollope, witnessing a congressman's funeral in 1827, dismissed the cenotaphs as "square blocks of masonry, without any pretension to splendour." Some, made of inferior sandstone, have weathered the years poorly. But even under the best conditions the cenotaphs stirred passions. John Randolph had them as well as Henry Clay in mind when he spat out this denunciation: "I would not die in Washington, be eulogized by men I despise and buried in the Congressional Burying Ground. The idea of lying by the side of ____! Ah, that adds a new horror to death."
Senator George Hoar of Massachusetts adopted a similar sentiment, declaring from the Senate floor in 1877 that the monuments "add a new terror to death." Afterward, state funerals filed across the Potomac to Arlington, which replaced Congressional as the national cemetery.
For more than a century no more cenotaphs were raised. Congress briefly revived the tradition in the spring of 1981, salvaging some of the Capitol's original sandstone—now replaced by marble—for a memorial to Hale Boggs, the Louisiana congressman who disappeared in a flight over Alaska in 1972. His cenotaph takes its place with others near the old public vault.
There are now some two hundred cenotaphs clustered at Congressional, about a third of them marking occupied graves. Aligned in close-order ranks, the sandstone sentinels dominate two sections of the cemetery. Several of the memorials, however, stand majestically alone. The cenotaph marking the grave of Dr. William Thornton, the first Architect of the U.S. Capitol, rests in the shade of a fugitive holly tree.

text: Quotes: Arnaud Boissières, skipper Akena Vérandas: 'We are obviously disappointed. We were dismasted at 0140hrs UTC when the conditions were really not extreme and we were actually going well. It is not clear why the mast broke because it was dark at the time. We were on starboard tack with gennaker. It could have been the outrigger (deck-spreader) but we are not sure. We have secured the boat now and are making towards the Vendée under a jury rig made from the boom and storm jib. But we are speaking with our shore team and will see if we can get fishing boat to come out and tow us a bit. We are currently about 370 miles from the Vendee and about 250 miles from Brest, so I don't think we will get there in anything less than three days. We will deal with our troubles meantime and be back in two years time.' François Gabart, skipper, Macif: 'We are pretty happy, the boat is going well and we are good too. We have a ridge to get through tomorrow night and then a low pressure at the Azores which we try to handle with some care, calmly and safely. We have been on it from the start really. The lateral separation with Banque Populaire and Groupe Bel is interesting, they will get to the ridge as it comes from the west a little later than us. We'll see what happens but it is easy to reduce the lateral separation if we want to. I was thinking that we had the same configuration as when we lost the mast with Mich in the Barcelona World race, starboard tack, the same wind conditions and sea, so that was not really reassuring. But here we are. Otherwise Seb was a bit sea-sick, but it does not seem to affect him, he has an incredible zest for life.' Stéphane Le Diraison co-skipper Bureau Veritas-Dunkerque Plaisance: 'I am not so surprised about Comiris retiring as the conditions were not easy at all. I am happy with our position in the leading group. Concise 2 had a good start, but there is still a long way to go. We don't run to a fixed schedule even if we had planned two hour watches. The seas are still crossed but nowhere near as bad as they were. ERDF are trying an option to the south and east and that will be interesting to see what happens.' Ned Collier-Wakefield skipper Concise 2: ' It is bitterly cold, but we are keeping well. It was wet and reachy to start with which was good for the boat but quite hard work, with 30kts on the beam off Cherbourg and then we just tried to get west as quickly as we could. Then we have just gone through this shift a couple of hours ago, so we are heading SW. We have just had the latest positions and we are a couple of miles ahead and we can see Thomas (Ruyant, Bureau Véritas-Dunkerque Plaisance) just behind us and so the three of us are kind of playing around together. I think we were very conscious in the first hours of the race of trying not to break anything, others have had some issues, so we started with the fractional kite for example. But we are really pleased with the boat's position. Looking at the forecast it is going to be a pretty tactical race. The wind is all over the place at the moment and so we just need to stay with the leaders and stay together just now, not breaking off and do anything, just taking each thing as it comes. We could not be more happy.' Now up to seventh place Hannah Jenner and Jesse Naimark-Rowse on 40 Degrees gained on the southern group during the night, benefiting from having set up with a more northerly position.'

I was born naked ... anybody who is against that is gay and in denial." [TMZ]Tila Tequila's lawyer says her meltdown is all Shawne Merriman's fault because the "domestic violence incident" has "pushed her over the edge." He admitted there's something seriously wrong with her and he's trying to get her help. [TMZ]Senator John Kerry's daughter Alexandra Forbes Kerry was arrested early this morning on suspicion of DUI. A blood alcohol test showed a level of .06, which is under the legal limit in California, but she can sill be prosecuted if she was operating her car unsafely due to alcohol.

[AP]Amy Winehouse's father Mitch was asked to be on I'm A Celebrity...

And I woke up at three in the morning, bolt upright, looked into the corner of the room and thought I saw Trudie standing there with a child - our child - in her arms, staring at me. And I thought 'well, that's strange - why is she standing in a corner, staring at me?'. And I then reached next to me and there was Trudie, and I suddenly got this terrible chill. And she woke up and said 'Gosh, who is that?' and she saw this woman and a child in the corner of the room.'' [The Telegraph]Pedro Almodovar says he once tried to write about sadomasochism in a film script but he couldn't do it. "As I was beginning my research I found it to be so horrifying that I erased the character from the movie, because I wasn't capable," he says. "It's like having a phobia!" [AP]Norah Jones says when she was making her new album The Fall, "I realized, I think, what I want to do is work with some different sounds. I figured that the best way to do that was to try and step outside of my comfort zone a little bit, and work with some different musicians and a different producer. It just felt like a good time to do that." [AP]"People are hung up about sex and can't even talk to their children about it. I got no sex education at all, not in school or church, not at home. Some people realize that the world has changed, and others don't. When people think offensive remarks about homosexuals, it offends me. Many are offended ... it may offend their religions ... some stick to their religions. What's behind it is homophobia-the worry, the fear, the life. It's a perfectly normal, minority group of people in the world who should not be discriminated against whatsoever. People don't get it who have never met a homosexual person, or read or watch anti-gay people in the media, but when they discover that maybe their child is gay, there can be the most amazing turnaround. It means that people have to discuss the situation, and the situation is that there's no need to make life miserable for those who contribute to the community and the nation. They should be embraced." — Sir Ian McKellan [BlackBook Magazine]Is Robert Downey Jr. quitting acting?! "I'm fucking really good at what I do - and have been for a long time, so I don't waver on that," he says. "But here's the thing: I can only be a guy on a call sheet probably, I don't know, maybe a couple more times. It's something I'm so grateful to have in my palm, and yet I already see its inevitable decay." Or not. He adds, "If Sherlock Holmes performs well, I could be busy for the next 5 or 7 or 10 years." [EW]Good news for Jennifer Aniston (or so the tabloids will surely say): John Mayer sees himself getting married and having kids. "I'm pretty Norman Rockwell-like, so I can see myself in that setting," he says. "But I might also have expectations in life that don't match my behavior in life. I mean, I'm a musician who travels the world playing songs to thousands of people at the same time — and yet sometimes I believe that I'm going to be able to blacktop a driveway and drop kids off to school. I think they're both going to have to give a little bit." [CNN]Melissa Joan Hart says she and her husband Mark Wilkerson, "Actually prefer date lunches. Date nights, we're always tired, and we figure if the kids are in bed then we're just wasting our time, so we really like lunches. We get the nanny to come over and we go out to lunch and have a blast." [People]Chaz Bono says getting a sex change is the best decision he ever made: "Life is short and life is precious. This is who I am. I need to finally be who I am," said Bono. "To me, gender is between your ears, not between your legs. I've felt male as far back as I can remember." [AP]Olivia Wilde says she enjoyed working with her husband Tao Ruspoli on his documentary Fix because, "The most important element of the relationship between an actor and a director is trust, and because we have that build in to our relationship, I felt incredibly comfortable being directed by Tao. I was able to take risks, improvise, be completely un-selfconscious, without worrying about whether or not the director understood my intention. No one understands me better than Tao, and therefore I felt completely liberated under his direction." [Gothamist]General Hospital executive producer Jill Farren Phleps says, "Everybody was so impressed," with James Franco's performance on the soap. "There was an enormous amount of respect and a lot of pleasure that the crew and the cast had in seeing this guy come and take it so seriously, do it so well and do such justice to it." [CNN]Dakota Fanning says she and Kristen Stewart share a passionate kiss in The Runaways. "We're playing Joan Jett and Cherie Currie and they're best friends in the film and became really close in real life," said Fanning, who explained the kiss saying, "That's something that went down back in the '70s."

Templates under consideration
There is still some work to be done to determine what information to include and what information NOT to include (we don't want too much duplication with Wikipedia).
In particular, even though it says Vernacular names below, they are currently only included if there is a link to a Wikipedia article.
There is also some new discussion about the layout and format of these pages, see Wikispecies:Village pump/Archive 3#Revised proposal.
Currently, Panthera tigris is seen as an example of an "ideal" Wikispecies page.
How a taxon page content should be structured
- Look at Help:General Wikispecies
Taxonavigation: Give the most commonly used clades of the taxonomic tree and allows a convenient navigation through all groups of life. To find templates for taxonavigation, see template:sp for an example. To use a template, use {{Nameofclade}}, like this: {{Aves}}.
Name: Give the binominal name according to the original author of that name. For example: Meles meles (Linnaeus, 1758).
- Synonyms (subsection): Give a list of other scientific names that have been used for the same species. These names are no longer valid but are still important because there is information out there under these names that can be used for the valid name still. SYNONYMS is a subsection of the NAME section. For more details, please see: Help:Name section#Synonyms. See Anopheles triannulatus for an example.
References: Give the publication in which the original description of the species was presented. This means an actual publication citation NOT a website. Also, make these references complete and user-friendly. For example, unabbreviate "Insec. Inscit. Menstr." like this "Insecutor Inscitiae menstruus." To find references, try these sites:
- Index Fungorum – Fungi
- International Fossil Plant Names Index (IFPNI)
- International Plant Names Index
- Zoonomen.net Index – Birds
- Mammalian Species Index
- EMBL Reptile Database
- Biodiversity Heritage Library
Vernacular names: Give names of the species in other languages by using the {{VN|en=Red Fox|de=Rotfuchs|nl=Vos|ko=붉은여우|etc...}} template.
Please do not add links to articles on this species in the particular Wikipedia, for example, do not add [[en:badger]] (links to the English Wikipedia on badgers), or [[de:Dachs]] (links to the German Wikipedia article on badgers). Adding those so called inter-wiki links would be redundant, since they are already served automatically by Wikidata, and will show up automatically even though they are not visible in the page code.
Try to avoid other information as well. If you must, add it to the discussion page of the taxon. To preserve understandability for all languages, further information for a particular taxon should be put on the respective Wikipedia.

Marvel plans to answer that in a new storyline spanning the Hulk franchise this December, as Jeph Loeb and Greg Pak team-up to write smash-filled sequel World War Hulks. Spoilers ahead. Advertisement Spinning out of this week's Incredible Hulk #600, the storyline - that will join Loeb's Hulk series with Pak's revived Incredible Hulk for its duration - follows Bruce Banner now that he is unable to become the Hulk ever again. According to Loeb, the de-Hulked Banner isn't the nerdy, nervous scientist we're familiar with, but a "kick-ass guy" trying to help the Hulk's son, Skaar, survive in a world where the mysterious Red Hulk has made life more uncomfortable for gamma-irradiated beings. Just to complicate matters, the storyline will also feature Loeb's newest creation, Red She-Hulk, due to debut soon in the Hulk series. "And if I'm not told you who Red Hulk is, I'm definitely not gonna tell you who Red She-Hulk is," Loeb joked.World War Hulks begins in December's World War Hulks: Gamma, written by Loeb and drawn by John Romita Jr.Reply22 repliesLeave a reply

A few weeks ago, while attending the Federalist Society's annual lawyers convention, I got to chatting with UCLA law professor (and former member of the Cato Supreme Court Review editorial board) Eugene Volokh about something that a commenter to his well-known Volokh Conspiracy blog had queried: might Hillary Clinton, then just-announced as "on track" to become the next secretary of state, be constitutionally disqualified from that job? I quickly turned to Article I, section 6, clause 2 of my handy Cato pocket Constitution (I carry one in every suit jacket and can attest that they make great stocking-stuffers) to look at the source of the problem: the Emoluments Clause. Nothing against her in particular but indeed, it seemed that Sen. Clinton's appointment — or that of any member of Congress whose term coincides with a cabinet pay raise — would violate the clear constitutional text.
I won't rehash the arguments here, especially because both Eugene and I (and many others, including venerable Supreme-Court-justice-in-waiting-of-Obama's-first-male-appointment Laurence Tribe) blogged about it.
I thought that would be the end of it, but they keep pulling me back in. Today, for example, I have an elaborated version of my earlier blog post in the American Spectator. And tomorrow I'll be appearing at a Judicial Watch forum discussing the issue along with John O'Connor, author of "The Emoluments Clause: An Anti-Federalist Intruder in a Federalist Constitution." (The panel is at the National Press Club, 529 14th St. NW in Washington, runs 1:30–3:00pm, and is open to the public.)
Interestingly, though Congress last week passed a "Saxbe Fix" for Sen. Clinton, we now have another emoluments problem, with Sen. Ken Salazar (D-CO), whom President-elect Obama has just nominated to be his Interior Secretary.
Leaving aside the constitutional issue, that makes four senatorial vacancies (and two gubernatorial vacancies) created by the victory of the Obama-Biden ticket, including, of course, the Rod Blagojevich mess in Illinois. That has to be some sort of record, but I fear it's the only way the incoming administration will reduce the size of government (and only temporarily at that).

Vienna, 18 December 2013 – Foreign Minister Sebastian Kurz welcomes the fact that the EU will take up accession negotiations with Serbia on 21 January 2014. "Yesterday's decision to start EU accession negotiations with Serbia is a crucial step at the end of what was an eventful year in the Western Balkans. I congratulate the Serbian government on this highly deserved break-through in its efforts", Foreign Minister Sebastian Kurz commented today on the decision of the EU's Foreign Affairs Council. The decisive factor for commencing accession negotiations with Serbia is the continued progress made in the normalisation of relations between Serbia and Kosovo. The stable and peaceful development of the relations was proven by the fundamental agreement reached between Serbia and Kosovo in April of this year. Kurz called upon both sides to "further pursue reconciliation swiftly and with courage".
Given the geographic proximity, the history shared with Austria and the close personal, economic and cultural ties, the Western Balkans play a highly specific role for Austria. "Austria is not only the largest foreign investor in Serbia, but also in Croatia and in Bosnia Herzegovina. More than 400 companies are currently represented in Serbia, and the continued reform process will certainly open up many additional opportunities for Austrian enterprises", Foreign Minister Kurz said.
As far as the further development in the Western Balkans is concerned, the Foreign Minister is clearly in favour of continuing the strategy of rapprochement to the EU: "One thing is very clear for Austria: the Western Balkans belong to Europe. After Croatia has become an EU member and following the current accession negotiations with Montenegro, the first accession conference with Serbia, which is to be held in January 2014, is the next logical step of moving the entire region closer to the EU. We hope that 2014 will bring clear progress in rapprochement to the EU also for Albania, Macedonia and Bosnia and Herzegovina", the Foreign Minister concluded.

Good luck Scott your gonna need it cus u have got to single handily develop it having never ridden a motot gp bike b4, not good. Reply Report abuse 12 agree 4 disagree
bikenutter November 08, 2013 11:26 PM @Gazza1JB That does suck! Sounds selfish but it kinda ruins it for the fans a bit. If Scott flies, he's on different kit. If he can't keep up...is it the kit? That's why team-mate dynamics work for the viewers, two guys on equal tech proves their metal. Reply Report abuse 8 agree 7 disagree

Last summer, IBM announced the formation of the consortium, following its decision to license the Power architecture. The OpenPower Foundation, the actual entity behind the consortium, opened up the Power architecture technology, including specs, firmware and software under a license. Firmware is offered as open source. Originally, OpenPower was the brand of a range of System p servers from IBM that utilized the Power5 CPU. Samsung's products currently utilize both x86 and ARM-based processors.
The intention of the consortium is to develop advanced servers, networking, storage and GPU-acceleration technology for new products. The four priority technical areas for development are system software, application software, open server development platform and hardware architecture.
'Open Set of Server Technologies'
When the consortium was announced in August, IBM senior vice president Steve Mills said in a statement that "developers now have access to an expanded and open set of server technologies for the first time," adding that such a " 'collaborative development' model will change the way data center hardware is designed and deployed."
Other members of the group include Google, Mellanox, Nvidia, Tyan and the China-based Suzhou PowerCore Technology Company and the Research Institute of Jiangsu Industrial Technology.
Along with its announcement of Samsung's membership, the organization said that Gordon MacKean, Google's engineering director of the platforms group, will now become chairman of the group.
Nvidia has said it will use its graphics processors on Power-based hardware, and Tyan will be releasing a Power-based server, the first one outside IBM.
Apple, Xbox, Playstation 3
Last month, IBM said it would be selling its x86 server business to Lenovo, which had previously purchased the technology giant's PC business. IBM has been focusing on its professional services and cloud-based businesses, and there have been reports that it was also interested in unloading its semiconductor business.
In the first week of February, The Financial Times reported that IBM has appointed investment bank Goldman Sachs to find companies that are interested in buying, or jointly owning, its semiconductor unit. Other reports have indicated that IBM is hoping to sell its chip manufacturing business but retain its chip designing operation.
IBM Microelectronics, which showed a one-third drop in revenue for the fourth quarter compared to the same quarter last year, provides design and foundry services based around Power chips. It has also licensed ARM Cortex processor designs for networking custom chips.
Power chips have seen some successes, but some notable losses as well. Apple made a visible switch to Power chips for Macs, which it subsequently dropped for x86 designs in 2006, and both Microsoft's Xbox 360 and Sony's Playstation 3 have utilized Power. But the next generations of both popular game consoles are now joining the ranks of x86-based hardware.

Well you got that wrong, its more like say i buy a BMW X6 (huge SUV) in a store that also sells Range rovers, i then i try my new car offroad only to see it fail as hell.
i got back to the car store and complain about it. the dealers there would do the same a blizz does, laugh at me because if i wanted a car that could handle offroad adventures i should have bought the range rover and not tbe BMW. my point being that this game cannot suit the needs of everyone and it cannot make everyone happy, that is why we have other games such games as rift or SWOTR because those games fit the user better than WOW, bit weird explained i know

BOSTON — Electricity grid managers are preparing for possible spring and summer power disruptions in the Boston area after attacks in Yemen destroyed a pipeline and cut back the local supply of liquefied natural gas.
LNG from Yemen is a tiny percentage of the abundant natural gas supplies in the U.S., but certain power generators in the Boston area and northeastern Massachusetts depend on it.
If power demand spikes or another local generator unexpectedly shuts down in May or June, the regional grid's ability to reliably produce electricity will be at risk, according to grid operator ISO New England.
"Because of this uncertainty, we've taken different steps to prepare to manage the power grid … during the next few months," said ISO New England spokeswoman Ellen Foley.
Foley said the steps include suspending maintenance on transmission lines to keep them available and working with power generators to manage their LNG supply. Such generators might sometimes opt out of the daily power market so they're not operating continuously.
Also, ISO-New England could activate a program under which certain customers agree to reduce electricity use on request — such as by turning down lights and using less air conditioning — in return for payments.
"It's just as good as turning on a generator to produce supply," Foley said. "We're just reducing consumer demand."
Natural gas is moved by pipeline in gas form, or it can be liquefied, which enables producers to fit far greater quantities in far smaller spaces and transport it by tanker or truck.
Fueled by shale gas production, domestic supplies of natural gas are remarkably abundant. Today, the country is storing more than ever, and even debating exporting its own LNG, said Bruce McDowell, director of policy analysis at the American Gas Association.
But some regions in New England don't have the pipeline infrastructure needed to get sufficient quantities of natural gas to power generators, said Carol Churchill, a spokeswoman for Distrigas, which runs an LNG terminal in Everett.
"Pipeline capacity is limited, that's why we need LNG. The pipeline capacity just is not there in certain places to meet all of the demand," she said.
Distrigas, for instance, directly serves the Mystic Power Station in Everett and some of its gas is used at other power plants, she said.
The pipeline attacks in southern Yemen occurred March 30 and April 26, and the first has been linked to al-Qaida. In their aftermath, two shipments to the Distrigas terminal in May and June had to be canceled, Churchill said.
The shipments together were expected to total less than 6 billion cubic feet of LNG, or about 14 percent of the roughly 41.6 billion cubic feet of LNG that was delivered to Everett in 2011. Churchill said the company is doing what it can to replace the lost supply and minimize disruption to customers.
A terminal in Louisiana is the only other place in the U.S. that receives a significant amount of LNG from Yemen. It got about 12.5 billion cubic feet in 2011, less than a third of what Everett received.
Yemen's total LNG imports last year were less than the amount of natural gas the New England states consumed in just the first two months of 2012. So the LNG problem in Yemen won't have much more than a local impact, McDowell said.
