Aerosols in the Treatment of Pneumocystis Pneumonia: A Pilot Study Quantitating the Deposition of Aerosolized Pentamidine as Delivered in ACTG 040 and Comparing Its Toxicity With Parenteral Pentamidine Therapy

|Condition or disease
|Pneumonia, Pneumocystis Carinii HIV Infections
|Drug: Pentamidine isethionate
|Not Applicable
Aerosolized pentamidine was as effective as intravenous pentamidine in treating PCP in animals. More of the pentamidine reached the lungs and less was found in the liver and kidney after pentamidine was given by aerosol than after an intravenous injection. This suggests that the toxicity of pentamidine may be less if given by aerosol than if given by the intravenous route.
Patients will inhale one dose of radiolabeled aerosol containing pentamidine, and an image of the lung will be taken immediately and then 24 hours later to determine the amount of pentamidine reaching the various areas of the lung. Patients will then undergo a bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) in order to recover the PCP organism from the lung and to corroborate the diagnosis of PCP. If PCP organisms are detected, patients will be randomly assigned to aerosolized or intravenous pentamidine and treated for 21 days. Patients taking pentamidine by aerosol will repeat the radiolabeled aerosol study on day 9. The BAL will be repeated at the end of therapy for all patients. If patients do not improve within 9 days, they will be switched to another therapy. After completion of therapy, patients will be given the option of prophylactic therapy, i.e., doses of medication to prevent reinfection, for PCP. All patients will be carefully assessed every 4 weeks for 6 months whether they begin prophylactic therapy or not. Zidovudine (AZT) may not be taken during the 21-day trial because of the increased risk of side effects, but it can be resumed when PCP therapy is completed.

The Audi Melges 20 Makes Its Racing Debut In The USA
16 April 2009
Audi Melges 20 racing debuts at Charleston Race Week 2009, April 17-19 with six forming the first U.S. fleet.
For the very first time ever in North America, the Audi Melges 20 will race as a fleet at Charleston Race Week 2009. Not only has the event been a great success for event organizers, but in particular, the attendees offer full proof that Melges' sportboat concept has taken hold and refuses to let go.
Racing begins on Friday, April 17 with six Audi Melges 20s and continues Saturday, concluding Sunday. Entries have traveled from the Northeast corridor including veteran Melges boat fanatic Geoff Pierini (Bernardsville, N.J) on USA-103 Shakedown with Anthony Kotoun as crew, and Dave Hammett (Rockville, Md.) on USA-119 Simplified Sophistication has employed the efforts of Annapolis' Paul Murphy. Two-thirds of the fleet hail from the Midwest and Canada. Phil Sustonk (Mississauga, Ontario Canada) on USA-102 has the crew talents of Olympic medallist Mike Wolfs. Michael Kiss (Macatawa Bay, Mich.) on USA-13 Bacio is out in full force as well as Eric Wynsma (Grand Rapids, Mich.) on USA-116 Superfly.
Last, but certainly not least is yet another seasoned Melges sailor — Marc Hollerbach (Grosse Pointe Farms, Mich.) onUSA-21. He is sailing this weekend with probably the most youthful crew in the fleet. His two sons Ian and Adam were secured as original crew, yet when they arrived in Charleston, together they decided to take on a fourth — Meagan Kiss. Meagan is not only the daughter of fellow competitor Michael Kiss, but she is also part of the U.S. Under 18 Olympic Team, has competed at the Opti Worlds many times over and frequently sails on the international level making her one of the most talented female sailors in the U.S.
"The Audi Melges 20 feels like a true dinghy. It is a smaller boat, yet quite lively. We sailed with most of the weight shifted aft, and it really hops up on a plane and goes.' commented Hollerbach, sounding as gitty as a schoolboy after practice on Thursday afternoon. "There are some similarities, but also some noticable differences when comparing it to the Melges 24. They sail differently, but similar at the same time. For example, downwind is just fantastic. It's fast and fun. Upwind is all about where you put your weight. This boat is high performance and high technology on the deck."
"We've got six great boats this weekend, each and every team is qualified, top-knotch competition. We are sharing information, helping each other really get ready to race." continued Hollerbach.
Visit the official event web site for Charleston Race Week 2009 for full results.
Stay tuned to the official web site of the Audi Melges 20 as daily race reports and stories will be posted as they become available. Also be sure to tune-in and subscribe to the official Audi Melges 20 Blog.

I have a beef with a lot of blog owners and other content websites, and you might want to blame Google. You see, a lot of blog owners welcome guest posts – as long as they are 500 words or more. And a lot of article directories welcome your words of wisdom – as long as it comes in doses of 500 or more. And a lot of other websites welcome your content – as long as it is at least 500 words long.
What is so magical about 500 words? Well, there is a common perception that if an article is 500 words or more, Google will like it more than if it is under 500 words and Google will rain darts and stink-bombs and itching powder upon your website.
The basis of this perception is that shorter articles are not as good quality as longer ones. The number 500 is a very arbitrary choice, with no basis in fact (actually some websites insist on at least 300 or 400 words, and others on at least 600 or 700 words – in any case, an arbitrary number).
However, there is some reason to suspect that if your website has articles that are mostly 100 words long it might not be judged as having as good quality content as the site with articles that are mostly 700 words long.
Garbage, no matter how long
As a writer, you should write to the point – you should get right to the point. Say what you want to say, and when you are finished, say no more. Sadly, a lot of people keep writing long after they have nothing more to say. I have read a lot of garbage on the Internet of 1000 words and of 700 words and especially of 500-520 words.
Why especially of 500-520 words? Because a lot of people write 100 or 200 or 300 words of information, but take just over 500 words to say it. They are trying to please Google. Or to conform to websites that are trying to please Google.
Quite aside from how ridiculous this charade is – like an endless Monty Python skit caught in a repeating loop – this makes for some pathetic writing.
Thomas Jefferson said, "The most valuable of all talents is that of never using two words when one will do." In order to please Google, many people will use two, three or four words where just one will do, and their writing quality suffers big time for it.
When you write to the point, you stop when you have said your piece. That might be at 100 words. Or it might be at 200. In the case of this article, it is at 451.

The Carmi-White County High School freshman team traveled to Johnston City Thursday, Sept. 12, falling in defeat 36-18.
The Carmi-White County High School freshman team traveled to Johnston City Thursday, Sept. 12, falling in defeat 36-18.
The team got off to a rocky start, trailing Johnston City 22-0 at halftime. However, the rejuvenated team came out ready to play the second half and turned the fourth quarter into several touchdowns and extra points.
Quarterback Jake Simon got the momentum going early in the fourth quarter with a one yard run for the first touchdown. Halfback Andrew Burnett got the extra point.
The Bulldogs were once again in a position to score. Simon threw a five-yard pass to Burnett who got across the line for the second touchdown for the Bulldogs. Simon then added the extra point on a run to end the game at 36-18.
"With Elverado and McLeansboro both not having freshman teams again this year, we will go back to Johnston City this fall so we can get eight games in," said Coach Denny Anderton. "In place of the Elverado game, our sophomores scrimmaged with our freshman on a Saturday earlier in the season."
The freshman Bulldog team plays each Thursday evening and will host Chester for their next outing Thursday, Sept. 19. Game time is 6:15 p.m.

Black Lagoon would probably be a good start, and if they liked that you could check out the second season.

yeah, target audience would help because I tend to have much more success with titles that have content that they *aren't* already associating anime with. Either they initially think Pokemon or "bang, boobs, boom".... and shouting/posturing, whole episodes of that.
I've had good luck with some diverse items as Pani Poni Dash, Ichigo Masimaro, Spice&Wolf, SHnY, Kamichu!.
TTGL isn't a bad suggestion though with its up-front sci-fi motif (though Yoko is initially easy to dismiss as the bang-boobs-boom til you get to know her personality).

I think what you probably want is something that isn't an out-and-out genre piece.
Gungrave. A very complex mafia genre and revenge story. Gets a bit weighed down by the zombie stuff on the side, but the good stuff is golden.
Mushishi. An art piece. Episodic storytelling at just about its finest.

As already noted, knowing the target audience would be very helpful. Other than that i am going to make a shot in the dark and say Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex. While some components of the anime might be a bit hard to grasp, if your audience consists of people that might (or do) enjoy investigation shows like CSI or the like, and generally enjoy more serious settings, then i think there is a fair chance they might find GITS appealing. A grittingly realistic SciFi show set in relatively near future, centering around a government special operations squad - Section 9 - who specialize in informational warfare and aggressive response to criminal activity.
I believe the show has quite good potential to appeal to "regular" audience that like to sit down and watch some cops movie once in a while. If you crowd refuses to watch subs (which they shouldn't!), there is also a dub available, as the show is licensed.

Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, Elfen Lied, Fullmetal Alchemist, Full Metal Panic, Chrno Crusade, Love Hina, Shakugan no Shana, Zero no Tsukaima, Cowboy Bebop, Eureka Seven, and Princess Mononoke are a few series that I would recommend.

I think it would be better to start with movies first, not with some 74 episode series.
Satoshi Kon movies like Millenium Actress or Tokyo Gotfathers may be a good start, as perhaps would be some Ghibli stuff like Mononoke Hime or Spirited Away. For a taste of darker anime Jin Roh comes to my mind, for a good laugh I would recommend Lupin:Castle of Cagliostro.
Bye, signorRossi.
Elfen Lied for the novice or casual anime viewer? I couldn't stand it and only watched the first episode and never felt the urge to watch more. Cowboy Bebop is great, but starts out very slow, it actually ended when it was really getting intersting.

As stated above, the biggest question is who the target audience is and what they're interested in. Aside from this concern, the correct answer is Ghibli films. They're short, so they don't represent the time commitment of a TV show or many OVA series. Most Ghibli films carry very familiar themes and require little knowledge of either Japanese culture or familiarity with anime. And they can be enjoyed by vastly differing demographics; almost enough to be considered universally appealing. It's quite telling that Ghibli fans don't bear the stigma of otaku that fans of other anime do.
The best Ghibli film to start with is going to depend a bit on the audience again, but something like My Neighbor Totoro or Kiki's Delivery Service or Spirited Away would work for most people out there.

I don't agree with most of the posts on this thread although the ones I do agree with are probably the Studio Ghibli suggestions for the reason 4tran gave. It really depends on the age of the audience for which Ghibli film as well but Spirited Away and Howl's Moving Castle have enough to interest all audiences. For a younger audience try My Neighbor Totoro and The Cat Returns.

I think any sports anime may very well do the trick. (Hungry Heart Wild Striker,Over Drive,Prince of Tennis for a few examples)
Note: Lol this makes 3 ^^ I found not only TTGL but also Code Geass utter failures. (And I am a fan of Mecha type Anime)

lol, no one mentioned code geass, also I can't see sports anime working unless they're into sports.
if someone doesn't like TTGL, they aren't likely to become very big of an anime fan. They might like all the stuff that's not geared to the big anime dudes or all the artsy and pretentious stuff, but that will not make him an otaku, just a jaded fan. If we're tring to make this guy into a true blue hardcore fan, TTGL is THE way to do it.

If have no problems with my humanity being questioned, I do that by myself at times. But I take offense at "jaded fan".
Seirei no Moribito if they have the patience. I personally know two non-otaku (m/f) who liked it. As for movies I second Mononoke Hime.

Also we don't know that the OP was talking about a male viewer; maybe he's talking about his girlfriend. Maybe he's talking about his eight-year-old niece? Maybe she'd rather watch NANA or Nodame Cantabile or Mononoke Hime or who knows what? And even if the person in question in male, he might prefer to watch those shows, too. (I would.)

Also, you dropped TTGL at the worst time. Dropping it before episode 8, it can hardly be said that you even watched it.

Highlights of the disclosures in the search warrants and prosecutor's statement released Thursday in the Newtown school shooting:
— Adam Lanza killed 26 people inside Sandy Hook Elementary School with a Bushmaster .223-caliber rifle and took his own life with a Glock 10 mm handgun within five minutes of shooting his way into the building, State's Attorney Stephen J. Sedensky III said. He said Lanza had another loaded handgun with him inside the school as well as three, 30-round magazines for the Bushmaster. Sedensky said 154 spent .223 casings were recovered at the scene. A loaded 12-gauge Saiga shotgun was found in the Honda Civic Lanza drove to the school and the warrants said there were two magazines containing a total of 70 shotgun rounds. The warrant does not offer further explanation, and authorities did not respond to questions, but some Saiga shotguns can be fitted with magazines that hold up to 30 rounds.
— The guns used in the shootings were apparently all purchased by the shooter's mother, Sedensky said. A gun locker at their house was open when police arrived and there was no indication that it had been broken into, he said.
— Authorities found a cache of weapons in Lanza's home and car, including a bayonet, knives and swords. More than 1,000 rounds of ammunition were found at his house along with paper targets. They also found a holiday card containing a check made out to Lanza to buy a firearm, authored by his mother.
— Investigators found a news article on a 2008 school shooting at Northern Illinois University.
— Lanza was an avid gamer who played "Call of Duty" and other games and rarely left his house, an unnamed person told investigators. A Sony Playstation 2 game console and a shoebox containing video game parts and memory cards were found.
— Books found at Lanza's house included "Look Me in the Eye — My life with Asperger's" and "Born on a Blue Day — Inside the Mind of an Autistic Savant." A mediator who worked with Lanza's parents during their divorce has said Lanza was diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome, an autism-like disorder that is not associated with violence.
— In a duffel bag, they found a National Rifle Association certificate that belonged to Adam Lanza. The NRA said Lanza and his mother were not members.

The Future of Farm Workers
For anyone concerned that undocumented immigrants are taking jobs from American citizens, the United Farm Workers has a response: Come take them back. The U.F.W. has created a Web site called takeourjobs.org. A statement on the site argues that Americans incorrectly correlate the high unemployment rates in the United States with the increasing number of undocumented immigrants. The statement concludes with a challenge: "Farm workers are ready to welcome citizens and legal residents who wish to replace them in the field. We will use our knowledge and staff to help connect the unemployed with farm employers."
Founded by Cesar Chavez in 1962 as the National Farm Workers Association, the organization works to improve working conditions and ensure fair wages for those laboring in the fields. Today, at least 50 percent of the farm workers in the United States are not legally allowed to work here, but the work they do is a vital part of the agricultural industry. As part of its larger efforts, the U.F.W. helped to draft the bipartisan Agricultural Job Opportunities, Benefits and Security bill. First introduced in 2003, the bill languished for years before it was reintroduced in 2009. If passed, the bill will offer temporary resident status to workers with at least two years experience who promise to work in American agriculture for an additional five years. It also would streamline the administrative process for approval of temporary resident status, which benefits both employers and workers. Its passage would help stabilize the agricultural work force and the family lives of the workers, who would no longer live in fear of deportation.
In an interview on "The Colbert Report," the current U.F.W. president, Arturo Rodriguez, said the organization has placed only three American citizens in the fields. If the AgJOBS bill does not pass soon, the U.S. agricultural industry may need many more citizens to volunteer.
Total Football
After a monthlong tournament that was not short on surprises, the World Cup soccer competition ended on July 11 as many predicted it would: with Spain holding aloft the coveted trophy for the first time. With six starters from the Barcelona football club, the Spanish team was hailed as a symbol of national unity in a country with a well-known history of political division. Such good feeling may pass, sadly, as it did for France in the wake of their early exit from the tournament. In 1998 France's ethnically diverse World Cup-winning team was held up as representative of a new France. Twelve years later a team that included 13 men of color was pilloried in its home country for not being sufficiently patriotic.
The ethnic diversity of the teams was among the most compelling storylines of the tournament. Here was Germany's Mesut özil, a midfielder of Turkish descent, scoring a goal from 25 yards out to rescue the team's World Cup hopes. Who cared if on occasion özil failed to sing along with the country's national anthem? His goal helped advance Germany to the round of 16. National loyalty melted away, too, as Ghana moved into the round of 8. The South African crowd rallied behind the team as the standard bearer for the continent. By the end of the tournament, most fans had switched their allegiances many times over. In the final game South Africans were even rooting for the Dutch, their former colonial rulers. Which is how it should be on the final day of the World Cup. A contest that begins with too much jingoism ends with fans worldwide reveling in the final outcome. ¡Viva España!
Death on the High Seas
Reality television usually contains little that is real. For some years, "The Real World," one progenitor of American reality television, has relied on a tired format, throwing together unstable twentysomethings in predictable mixes (one African-American, one gay man and so on) with predictably explosive results. That's why the latest season of Discovery Channel's "Deadliest Catch" has proven surprising. The popular show focuses on the travails of the crab fishermen of Alaska. Over the last few years viewers have come to know the hard-bitten crews as they ply the unforgiving Bering Sea in search of king and opilio crabs.
This season, one of the unlikely "stars" of the show, Capt. Phil Harris, a chain-smoking, hard-drinking, foul-mouthed veteran crabber, suffered a stroke. His relationships with his two complicated sons, who work on his ship, have been at the heart of the series. Harris told producers to keep the cameras running, even as he entered the hospital. So unlike other reality shows, which gin up situations to create fake tension, "Deadliest Catch" has found real pathos. In the episode focusing on Harris's hospitalization, one tough crewmate told Harris's son he needed to be at his father's side, not on the boat. Nearing death, Harris whispered an apology, "I'm sorry that I was a bad father." His son compassionately brushed off the apology and professed his love for his tough dad. It was a vivid reminder that grace is everywhere: on the Bering Sea, in a hospital bed and even on television.
Fr. Martin says "Grace is everywhere: on the Bering Sea, in a hospital bed and even on television." YES! We only need to tune in to our senses and open our heart to recognize this everpresent grace. Deo Gratias.

Disappointing That Twitter Threatened Twitpic, But Story Doesn't Add Up
from the you-don't-need-a-registered-trademark dept
It's even more disappointing that this is all happening over a trademark dispute. Back in 2009, in fact, we highlighted Twitpic as one example (of a few) of how Twitter seemed to take a very open attitude towards its trademarks and let the various companies building on its platform make use of different forms of "twitter" and "tweet." A year later, the company was even more explicit in offering "free" licenses for its trademark for third party services. That's pretty clearly changed these days, and building Twitter as a more closed system where all of the innovation has to come from within, rather than from third parties, is unfortunate (and potentially quite limiting for the future).
All that said... I'm really not sure I buy this excuse for why Twitpic is shutting down:
We originally filed for our trademark in 2009 and our first use in commerce dates back to February 2008 when we launched. We encountered several hurdles and difficulties in getting our trademark approved even though our first use in commerce predated other applications, but we worked through each challenge and in fact had just recently finished the last one. During the "published for opposition" phase of the trademark is when Twitter reached out to our counsel and implied we could be denied access to their API if we did not give up our mark.But... that makes no sense at all. Twitpic does not need a registered trademark in order to stay in business. It has no need to fight Twitter on this, and if its concern is the legal fees, why not just drop the whole trademark application. Registered trademarks have some uses, but common law trademarks are nearly as powerful for most important cases. Twitpic could easily just drop the trademark application process (saving legal fees there as well) and stay in business. The idea that you need a registered trademark makes no sense. The idea that you'd shut down the entire business just because Twitter opposed the trademark also makes no sense. It sounds much more like this was a convenient excuse for Twitpic to shut down while "blaming" Twitter for something, but without pointing out that the real problem might have been back when Twitter built in its own photo hosting service.
Unfortunately we do not have the resources to fend off a large company like Twitter to maintain our mark which we believe whole heartedly is rightfully ours. Therefore, we have decided to shut down Twitpic.

Archived Version
This version updated: 20:10 26/05/2009
View Current Version (15:21 20/06/2012) | Return to Page History
R1. Scope of these Rules
These rules are in addition to Environment Agency (EA) regulations and the ARA Row Safe (RS), and apply to College crews in all locations and at all times unless otherwise specified.
Crews should not rely solely on these rules but should make their own risk assessments each outing, taking into account the conditions and abilities of their rowers.
University crews have their own codes of conduct and risk assessments approved by the Area Safety Officer (Sport) but when using the Isis stretch (between Folly Bridge and Iffley Lock) or the Godstow stretch (between Osney Lock and St. Edward's School Boathouse) should follow all rules defined as specific to these two stretches.
Some of these rules may be over-ridden by special rules of competitions.
R2. Equipment
All College equipment should comply with EA regulations and with RS, section 2.3. In particular, all boats must:
- carry a valid EA Registration/Exemption plate.
- have a bow-ball that meets ARA standards securely screwed to the bow (except tubs). In the event of losing a bow-ball, boats should replace it immediately or return, at light pressure, as directly as possible to their boathouse while keeping within the rules of the river.
- if fitted with shoes, have intact heel restraints set to prevent the heels rising above the lowest fixed point of the shoes. (In practice, heel restraints can be set much shorter than this.)
- have water-tight seals on all buoyancy compartments.
R3. Rowers and Coxes
All Colleges must ensure that their crews are safe to go on the water. This involves:
- ensuring that all rowers and coxes have passed a swim test demonstrating their ability to meet the standards laid out in RS, section 1.9, or have provided evidence of an equivalent swimming ability. Prior to the taking of such a test, College Boat Clubs should seek to ascertain the swimming ability of their members by signed declarations, and act accordingly. Non-swimmers are not allowed on the water. A weaker swimmer (but not a non-swimmer) may row wearing a life-jacket until OURCs swim tests are held. After the last of these in the Michaelmas term, all those who have not taken the test, or who have taken and failed it, may not go on the water.
- ensuring that only those rowers who have taken an OURCs capsize drill, or can prove that they have taken a similar one elsewhere, may use singles, pairs or doubles.
- giving safety briefings to all rowers and coxes at the start of their rowing careers encompassing: the local navigation rules; the College code of practice; local hazards; safety provision and procedures on the water and in the boathouse; how to prevent, recognize, and deal with hypothermia; and what to do and look out for in the instance of cold water immersion (see RS, section 1.8).
- maintaining a safety notice board in a prominent place in the boathouse, according to RS, section 1.1.
- conducting risk assessments at appropriate times (see RS, section 1.2), and specifying a code of practice based on these (see RS, section 1.3), which should be available on the College Boat Club's website and followed on a day-to-day basis.
R4. General Rules of the River
- Crews must, at all times:
- be aware of what is happening around them;
- travel at a speed commensurate with that awareness; and
- be ready and able to take whatever action is necessary – steering, slowing or stopping – to prevent a collision, even if they have right of way. (In the instance of a head-on approach, both crews should move to bowside.)
- Crews must keep as far to the right-hand side of the river as is safe and practicable.
- Overtaking crews should:
- only do so having first checked that the river is clear;
- move to the centre of the river to go past; and
- not impede the crew they are overtaking.
- Crews must not slow or stop in locations or at times that impede other crews.
- Coxes must wear a securely-fastened life-jacket at all times when on the water, worn on top of all other clothing (see RS, section 2.1).
R5. Scheduled Closures
No member of OURCs, as defined in C3, may row at the following times:
- Earlier than 1 hour before sunrise, or later than 1 hour after sunset.
- Between 8.30am and 1.00pm on weekdays from Sunday of 1st week to Saturday of 8th week, unless from a graduate college or in a single scull, or with the Proctors' permission.
NB: specific stretches have other restrictions in addition to those listed in R5; see R7.1 and R7.2 in relation to the Isis, and R8.1 in relation to Godstow.
R6. Extreme Conditions
- Regardless of the subsequent rules, all crews must make their own assessment before boating (see RS, section 1.7). For instance, the fact that the flag status allows a crew to boat does not mean that it is safe for that crew to do so.
- Fast stream:
- Crews using the Isis and Godstow stretches must abide by the flag rules defined in R7.6 and R8.3, shown by the on-line flag when operational. If the grey flag is showing crews should conduct their own assessment on whether it is safe to boat, part of which could include calling the EA or the relevant lock keeper.
- In fast stream conditions, crews rowing on stretches other than the Isis and Godstow should make their own risk assessment based on advice from the local club and the EA. If red boards are displayed on the local locks crews should consult their Insurance Policy to clarify their position with regards insurance. In this instance crews are not allowed to navigate these locks.
- Limited visibility:
- In limited visibility (which encompasses low light, fog, even heavy snow and rain), all boats shall carry bright white lights attached to the stern and bow, which together are visible through 360 degrees. (See RS, section 1.7.)
- If fog is dense enough to bring visibility down to below 100m crews are not allowed to be on the water.
- High winds: The Isis and Godstow flags do not generally take into account the wind strength. In the instance of high winds it is the duty of the cox (or the coach if the cox is 'novice' status [see R10]) to decide whether or not it is safe to boat. Particular notice should be taken with regard to the direction of the wind in relation to the direction of the water's flow.
- Lightning: No crew may row during a lightning storm.
- Ice: No crew may row if ice has formed on the water.
R7. Rules specific to the Isis
- Scheduled Closures
In addition to R5, no member of OURCs may row between the following times (out of courtesy to other river users):
- Between 8.00am and 1.00pm on Sundays.
- After 7.00pm on Wednesdays.
- Scheduled Restrictions
OURCs members must observe the following restrictions:
a. On weekdays before 8.00am, from Monday of 1st week to after the end of Christ Church Regatta and Torpids in Michaelmas and Hilary terms respectively, Colleges can only have one crew on the water at any one time, except with the written permission of the OURCs Secretary or having been granted an Extra Slot. On weekdays before 8.00am, from Monday of 1st week to after the end of Summer Eights in Trinity term, Colleges can have no more than two eights on the water at any one time, except with the written permission of the OURCs Secretary.
b. On Sundays, from Sunday of 1st week to after the end of Christ Church Regatta, Torpids and Summer Eights in Michaelmas, Hilary and Trinity terms respectively, Colleges can only have one crew on the water at any one time, excluding single sculls.
c. On weekdays between 5.00pm and 7.00pm, from Monday of 0th week to Tuesday of 5th week of Trinity term, only members of those crews entered for the Senior divisions in Eights (as defined in B2.7), the top crew of the next division, and all College 1st VIIIs, may be on the water, unless in a single scull.
d. During OURCs and OURCs-sanctioned competitions, no crew is allowed on the water except those permitted by the competition rules. All such regattas must request river closures at a Captains' Meeting at least two weeks in advance.
- Boating/Landing
For normal training outings:
a. From Boathouse Island, crews must boat and land pointing upstream.
b. From the Univ raft, crews must boat pointing downstream, but may land either upstream or downstream so long as they do not interfere with other crews.
c. From Longbridges, crews may boat and land either upstream or downstream so long as they do not interfere with other crews.
d. Crews who do cause an obstruction by landing or boating against the stream at Longbridges or Univ will be judged to have committed a major transgression and penalised accordingly.
e. From City and Falcon, crews must boat and land pointing upstream.
f. From the Isis Boathouse, crews must boat pointing upstream, but may land either upstream or downstream. Under blue or amber flag, it is suggested crews spin upstream of the stage and drift back to land.
- Full complement
a. From Sunday of 1st week to Saturday of 8th week, all boats shall carry their full complement at all times, except with the written permission of the OURCs Secretary.
b. The only exception to this rule is boats being transported to or from City or Falcon landing stages, which will not have to spin once on the water and still obey all the relevant sections of R7.3. Such crews must not be coxed by a 'novice' cox.
- Special Rules Applying to the Gut
The Gut is defined as the narrow stretch of the Isis between Longbridges Boathouse and the entrance to the cut in which the former Corpus barge is moored.
a. No 'novice' status cox (see R9) may go through the Gut until the date designated by the Captain of Coxes at their registration meeting. Until that date coxes from boathouses upstream of the Gut should spin at Longbridges, and coxes from boathouses downstream of the Gut should spin in the bay outside the Sea Scouts Boathouse when safe to do so.
b. Crews may not easy in the Gut, or proceed through it slower than normal full crew paddling allows.
c. Crews may not overtake in the Gut.
d. Tub boats are not permitted in the Gut.
- Spinning
- Under green flag boats may only spin at the following places from Sunday of 1st week to Saturday of 8th week:
i upstream of the second large mooring post on the City side at the Head of the River.
ii at Longbridges, spinning stern towards the towpath, and remaining close enough to the towpath to leave a clear passage for crews entering and leaving the Gut.
iii below the red and white post on Haystacks Corner. A spinning crew must not keep paddling once downstream of this post, and must stay upstream of the white Isis Boathouse post as they spin. Crews must not use the stretch between the white post and Iffley Lock to be coached. Crews racked at the Isis Boathouse may use the area just below the white post to boat or land only but are recommended under blue or amber flag to spin above the post and drift or back down to land.
- Under blue and amber flags crews must spin between the red and white posts 100m downstream of Donnington Bridge and upstream of Haystacks Corner and may not spin at Longbridges, except to land.
- Boats must turn singly in order of arrival at the spinning area, unless prior crews have granted permission to spin.
- Having spun, boats must immediately leave the spinning area so as not to obstruct other crews.
- The Isis Flag
During fast stream conditions, special rules are in force on this stretch, as indicated by the on-line flag:
a. Red Flag (5 bucks): The Isis is closed to all University and College rowers. Navigation of Osney and Iffley Locks is prohibited.

The river is closed between Folly Bridge and Oxford Canal. Navigation of Osney and Iffley Locks is prohibited. All crews must be accompanied by a bank rider with, in case of emergency, a throw-line and a mobile phone, programmed with the phone number for Iffley Lock, which is 01865 777277.
c. Blue Flag (2 bucks): The Isis is closed to 'novice' status coxes as defined in R10. Crews must spin between the red and white posts 100m downstream of Donnington Bridge and upstream of Haystacks Corner and may not spin at Longbridges, except to land. The river is closed between Folly Bridge and Oxford Canal. Navigation of Osney and Iffley Locks is prohibited.
d. Grey Flag: When a grey flag is displayed the system is not currently being maintained and all crews are responsible for referring to the EA or lock keepers for stream advice.
- Coaching Launches
Coaching launches must not be used on the Isis, except with the prior permission of the OURCs Secretary.
- Coxes
Coxes of crews on the Isis between Sunday of 0th week and Saturday of 8th week of each term must be registered members of OUCS.
- Iffley Lock
- Crews may go through Iffley Lock only under a green flag, and during the hours between sunrise and sunset.
- Crews who intend to transit Iffley Lock should wait for the lock to fill below the white Isis Boathouse post.
R8. Rules specific to Godstow
- Scheduled Closures
In addition to R5, no member of OURCs may row between the following times (out of courtesy to the Medley sailing club):
a. On Sundays from 2.00pm to 6.00pm, from March to November inclusive.

- Boats must turn singly in order of arrival at the turning point, unless prior crews have granted permission to spin.
- Having spun, boats must immediately leave the turning area so as not to obstruct other crews.
- Fast Stream Conditions
During fast stream conditions, special rules are in force on the Godstow stretch, as indicated by the on-line flag:
a. Red Flag (4 bucks at Osney Lock, 2 bucks at Godstow Lock or at the discretion of the St Edward's School Boatman): The Godstow stretch is closed to all crews. Navigation of Osney Lock is prohibited.
b. Amber Flag (3 bucks at Osney Lock, 1½ bucks at Godstow Lock or at the discretion of the St Edward's School Boatman): The Godstow stretch is closed to all College crews except Senior crews as defined in R11. The river is closed below Rainbow Bridge. Navigation of Osney Lock is prohibited.

- Crews must adhere to any local rules and restrictions particular to the stretch they are rowing on.
- Crews rowing on stretches other than the Isis and Godstow stretches do so entirely at their own risk when either the Isis or Godstow flag is red, and are advised to abide by the advice of local boat clubs and the EA regarding whether it is safe to do so.
R10. Registration and Status of Coxes
- A member of OURCs, as defined in C3, may only cox a crew once in possession of an OUCS coxing permit.
- The Captain of Coxes shall keep a register of all College coxes with a coxing permit, which shall detail for each cox:
- the date of their registration.
- the number of terms of active coxing experience they have had.
- their status: 'novice', 'experienced' or 'senior'.
- any penalties imposed on the cox by OURCs.
- Newly-registered coxes with no previous experience shall be designated 'novice'. The Captain of Coxes shall assign newly-registered coxes with previous coxing experience an appropriate status.
- Coxes will achieve 'experienced' status after 3 full terms coxing, upon confirmation from their College Captain. Early promotion to 'experienced' status may be considered upon written application.
- Coxes wishing to be accorded 'senior' status must apply in writing to the Captain of Coxes, detailing their experience. Applications will normally only be considered from coxes with at least 6 full terms coxing.
- Coxes with 'novice' status may not cox an outing unless accompanied by a coach, who shall be held responsible for the safety of the crew.
- Coxes with 'experienced' or 'senior' status shall be held responsible for the safety of their crew. An 'experienced' or 'senior' status cox who puts their or any other crew in a situation where damage or danger results is liable to have their permit endorsed or suspended.
R11. Definition of a Senior Crew
- Within these rules, a Senior crew is defined as an eight or a coxed four with a cox classified as 'Senior' under Rule R10.5 and at least four rowers with three full terms rowing experience, and not containing any rower with less than one full term of rowing experience.
- At the discretion of the OURCs committee, other crews may be also be designated 'Senior'. Application should be made in writing to the OURCs Secretary.
R12. Use of the City of Oxford RC Facilities
Crews using the City of Oxford Rowing Club grounds are expected to comply with all reasonable requests from CORC members relating to the following guidelines:
- Avoid using the area at peak times for CORC members, i.e. weekday evenings and weekend mornings.
- Only use the grass areas for rigging/de-rigging, and for leaving boats unattended. Do not use Car Parking space, or the Hard.
- The landing stage should be occupied as briefly as possible when boating/landing, with priority given to CORC members.
- Boat and land pointing upstream whenever possible.
- Do not leave trailers in the Car Park for more than 24 hours without permission from the CORC Committee.
R13. Personal Conduct
The use of foul or abusive language and gestures is an offence. When directed towards members of the public or OURCs officials performing their duties, it is regarded as a serious offence.
R14. Transgressions
Fines and sanctions may be imposed upon a College Boat Club in the event of a breach of OURCs rules. Transgressions witnessed by non-members of the OURCs Committee should be reported to the OURCs Secretary or the OURCs Sabbatical Officer.
- Any member of the OURCs Committee may impose fines.
- At their discretion, committee members may choose to caution a cox or crew rather than impose a fine.
- Types of transgression:
- Minor transgressions are defined as those breaches of these rules without serious safety implications, which only minimally inconvenience other river users, or which gain a crew only a minor training advantage. The fine for a minor transgression shall be £10.
- Major transgressions are defined as those with potentially serious safety implications, which significantly inconvenience other river users or which gain the crew major training advantage. The fine for a major transgression shall be £25.
- Extreme transgressions are defined as those resulting in serious incidents, or rowing whilst banned, for example by the OURCs flag or a previous penalty. The fine for an extreme transgression is £100. Only a formally convened OURCs Committee Meeting may impose the fine, and may also impose further sanctions on the Boat Club or crew involved, such as banning them from the river and/or from OURCs races.
- The OURCs Committee shall not be permitted to impose sanctions upon an entire Boat Club unless it is proven that both the men and women's Captains, and/or both the men and women's team members were involved in the extreme transgression.
- Violations of any of the scheduled restrictions shall incur a £10 fine for the first offence in each academic year, but double for each additional offence of any scheduled restrictions within the same year.
- Committee members must notify the OURCs Treasurer of fines they have imposed. The OURCs Treasurer will then send the College Boat Club concerned details of the fine.
- Dangerous or careless coxing may (in addition to a fine) result in endorsement, or in particularly serious cases withdrawal, of the permit of the cox concerned.
- Coxes whose permit is endorsed more than 3 times in any 3 consecutive terms shall have their permits withdrawn for the rest of the term in which the fourth endorsable offence occurred and for the entirety of the subsequent term.
- Following a period of disqualification, coxes whose permit has been withdrawn shall have to satisfy the OURCs Captain of Coxes that they are competent to cox before they may reapply for their permit.
- Appeals against fines or other penalties imposed by OURCs should be directed, in the first case to the OURCs Secretary and on further dispute, to the OURCs Senior Member, who shall have the final say in all such matters.

Mitchell College picks entrepreneur as president
New London — For nearly two decades, Janet L. Steinmayer has worked with schools for students who learn differently.
Steinmayer, who was named Mitchell College's seventh president Monday, is the chairwoman of the Board of Trustees at Eagle Hill-Southport, a school in Southport that helps children with learning disabilities develop, and she serves on the board at Lesley University, which has a program for young adults with special needs in Cambridge, Mass.
"I feel passionately about this area of education and the tremendous impact that educators and others working in this area can have on students' lives," Steinmayer said.
Mitchell College is nationally known for its academic support programs that support individual learning differences. The college's Board of Trustees announced Monday that after a nationwide search, Steinmayer has been selected to succeed Mary Ellen Jukoski on July 1.
An entrepreneur, Steinmayer is the founder and chief executive officer of Appleseed Food Frontiers, a company that provides strategic marketing and consulting services to expansion stage and artisanal food companies. She previously served as president and chief executive officer of one of the largest hospitality companies in North America, Centerplate Inc. She lives in Old Greenwich.
"We are so fortunate to have someone with Janet's unique background in higher education and business to build on Mitchell's recognized leadership in providing academic, personal and career success to students with diverse talents and learning styles," Elizabeth Ivey, chairwoman of the Board of Trustees, said in a statement. "Her multi-faceted background and ability to lead strategically and collaboratively represent the right mix of skills to carry Mitchell into the future."
Steinmayer said she is confident she can work with the dedicated and passionate individuals who make up the Mitchell College community, to continue to build Mitchell as "a leading force in ensuring that students, no matter what their learning style, will achieve academic and lifelong success."
"So much of my background ties to what they're doing and what they plan to do in the future, so it's very exciting to me," said Steinmayer, who describes her leadership style as "very collaborative."
Jukoski, the first woman to lead Mitchell College, announced in September that she would retire in June, following the school's 75th anniversary. Jukoski was appointed interim president in 1994 and a year later, after a national search, selected for the top spot.
Under Jukoski's leadership, the college has grown from a two-year college to a four-year institution that offers nearly 30 baccalaureate majors. She also created the Thames Academy, a credit-granting post-high school graduate program.
Jukoski said her successor is "a leader with a perfect blend of bold vision and an abiding regard for our mission, history and distinctive character."
"I am proud to entrust the Mitchell community to her care," she said.
Steinmayer, who has lived in Connecticut for 30 years, said she is thrilled and honored to have been chosen to lead Mitchell College, and she is looking forward to being a part of the New London community.
Steinmayer's experience in higher education includes serving on the Board of Trustees for her alma mater, Bryn Mawr College, and on the Board of Visitors for the John F. Welch College of Business at Sacred Heart University.
She helped linked businesses with colleges and universities through internships and partnerships while serving on the board of The Business Council of Fairfield County. As a mentor with the Yale Entrepreneurial Institute, Steinmayer advised students from China who were pursuing a business venture selling tea.
Steinmayer studied law at the University of Chicago Law School and began her career as a corporate lawyer. She served on the governor's Transition Planning Committee on agricultural policy in 2010.
Karen A. Jeffers, an attorney at Jeffers Cowherd in Fairfield, has known Steinmayer for more than 20 years. She said Steinmayer is "a born leader" and Mitchell will benefit from having a president who knows education and business, and "where the two can create wonderful links to the benefit of the school."
"Her ability to see the strengths in an institution and capitalize on those strengths, I think, is pretty amazing," Jeffers said. "And Mitchell looks to me like one of those places that has a lot of strengths and is looking toward the future."
Arlene Gibson, the board chairwoman at Bryn Mawr, said Steinmayer is one of the most strategic thinkers she knows.
"I think for Mitchell, it is just the perfect match," she said Monday. "It combines a passion she has for the work along with a skill set that is pretty phenomenal."

Tina Stillwell vs Garberville Sanitary District: Civil Suit Filed Monday Alleging Plaintiff Was Fired for Bringing Attention to Misconduct by the General Manager
On Monday, Tina Stillwell, a former employee of the Garberville Services District, filed a lawsuit against the District alleging that she was fired because she blew the whistle on misconduct by the General Manager, Ralph Emerson. Stillwell alleges in the suit that Ralph Emerson retaliated by firing her within months of her providing information to an outside auditor.
In a story we published in May of last year, Kelley Lincoln, our reporter, noted the auditor "discovered the General Manager holds several positions at three other districts. Since this District employs him full time, there should be some accountability for the time he spends at his outside employment."
The auditor also noted that Emerson used the Garberville Services District's credit to "purchase a tool for another district. Although this tool was replaced, it is a major internal control concern."
According to the Stillwell's lawsuit, Stillwell was the one who informed the auditor of the issues. She alleges that Emerson retaliated within months and terminated her employment. In a story we posted in September, Stillwell and her attorneys, one of which, Herb Schwartz, was a former Garberville Services District Board Chair, sent a letter to the Board of Directors offering "pre-litigation mediation to the District in an effort to bring about a speedy and cost effective resolution."
Now a suit has been filed and Schwartz, in an email sent to multiple people including several reporters and Supervisor Estelle Fennell, states that he is concerned at how long the case could drag on as "criminal cases preempt civil cases all the time." In addition, Schwarz alleges that Humboldt County's "lack of internet access to our [court] files is medieval" and is especially burdensome on those who live in outlying areas who must travel to Eureka in order to read court cases.
However, Schwartz provided the file in the email and we've provided access to it below. For those unfamiliar with court language, Stillwell is the plaintiff, the Garberville Service District and Ralph Emerson among others are the defendants in this case. The section, General Allegations, on page 3 of the pdf below, provides the basic story as told from the point of view of Stillwell and her attorneys.
Please remember the following information has not been proven in a court of law but are only the allegations of one side in the case.
In September when we requested more information from the Board, they strongly denied the allegations by Stillwell. However, they also stated, "…no additional comment will follow at this time as this is a pending and/or threatened litigation matter involving District personnel determinations."
Below is the lawsuit. Please give the pdfsome time to load.Stillwell 1 v GSD 3.5.18

Here is a postcard showing the Camden Athenaeum:
The Athenaeum Chess Club started at the Camden Athenaeum two years later in 1873. Much of its early history can be gleaned from sources such as The Westminster Papers, the Illustrated London News, and even that new kid on the block, the British Chess Magazine. One delightful story is how the Athenaeum persuaded the septuagenarian, Horwitz, to represent it in matches against other clubs: he insisted on spotting pawn and two against the whippersnappers representing the opposition on top board!Islington: Social and cultural activities', A History of the County of Middlesex: Volume 8: Islington and Stoke Newington parishes (1985), pp. 45-51 wrote:The Athenaeum, Camden Road, was built in 1871 at the junction of Camden and Parkhurst roads, after appeals for a literary and scientific institution for the area. The building of brick and terracotta was designed by F. R. Meeson in an Italianate style. It contained meeting halls, libraries, and a hall for theatrical and musical performances, seating 600. It was later taken over by Beale's, the caterers, as the Athenaeum hall. In 1912 and 1915 it housed an orchestral society and music teachers, and was used for concerts, and after the Second World War rehearsals were held there by Donald Wolfit's Advance Players Association. In 1955 the building was demolished and the site used for a petrol station. (fn 5)
fn. 5 Pevsner, Lond. ii. 239; docs. found in fndn. stone of Athenaeum, and Note on its Hist., in Islington libr.; Howard, Lond. Theatres, 16.
The Athenaeum Chess Club's full style is the "Camden Athenaeum, Westminster and Central Chess Club". In 1908 it merged with the Westminster CC; I am not aware of when it merged with the Central. One question that has eluded me so far is which "Westminster CC" this was, there were several over the years. One problem with some stories about old chess clubs is that they "closed". Closer inspection sometimes reveals that they actually "moved".
The Athenaeum has changed venue many times in the intervening years, and has met in central, rather than north, London for a century or so, now. It claims to be the oldest extant chess club in the capital; I know of no plausible challengers.

Cynthia Petrovic was in Krakow, Poland, in November for a Jewish heritage tour and visited the Nazi-run concentration camp at Auschwitz and Oskar Shindler's factory.
While at Rynek Glowny, the main square in Old Town Krakow, she saw a row of horse-drawn carriages awaiting tourists near St. Mary's Basilica.
Petrovic would have gone for a ride, she said, but "it was way, way too cold that day!" The Sunland resident used a Huawei C8650 smartphone.

For second grade I spent the entire year with my grandparents. I don't remember a lot except it was a good year. I wasn't teased and tormented as I always was at home. I had friends and enjoyed the rural school. The year stands out in many ways.
I remember going to music class and learning the song from this plaque.
I still remember it very clearly.
Grandma had a doctor's appointment in a nearby larger town and I found this present for my Mom. I don't know if it was for her birthday in March or for Mother's Day.
She always kept it. Now I have it hanging in my hallway.
On the back I wrote:
"to Mother I love you from Rita"
When I became a mother my Mom was on cloud nine.
Here she is with my seven day old daughter.
Every picture I have of them during those first months Mom is just sitting and staring at her.
I'd never noticed that before I started looking for a photo for this blog.
Happy Mother's Day Mom and Jessica.
Both great mothers.
M is for the million things she gave to me.O means only that she's getting old.
T is for the tears she shed to save me.
H is for her heart of purest gold.
E is for her eyes with love light shining.
R means right and right she'll always be.
Put them all together they spell
A word that means the world to me.

Fox News Uses DMCA To Take Down Videos Used In Commentary
from the notice-and-takedown-is-broken dept
Take for example, the latest example, presented by the EFF, who notes that Fox News has used the DMCA takedown process to pull down three clips from Fox News that were being used by a group called Progress Illinois who was using the videos as part of commentary on current events -- a common and valid fair use of content. However, since YouTube had to quickly pull down the videos and is now taking time to review the counternotification, it makes it nearly impossible for Progress Illinois to use the videos in a timely manner.
This is yet another example of how copyright is used to stifle free speech. This isn't just about "protecting" content or creating incentive to create more content. There's no commercial loss to Fox News to allow these videos to be used in this way. Forcing the immediate takedown serves only one purpose: to stifle free speech. In fact, you could make a decent argument that the DMCA violates the First Amendment with this policy (you know, "Congress shall make no law... abridging the freedom of speech...."). Given the seriousness of how such a process can stifle free speech, it's difficult to come up with a compelling reason why the DMCA shouldn't at least allow a "notice and notice" procedure, whereby the user accused of infringement is at least given a chance to respond before the content is taken down.

There does not seem to be a compelling reason for Fletcher to block a solar energy farm next to Fletcher Community Park, although the Town Council is right to get all the facts before approving the project.
There does not seem to be a compelling reason for Fletcher to block a solar energy farm next to Fletcher Community Park, although the Town Council is right to get all the facts before approving the project.
John and Richard Green, co-owners of Innovative Solar Systems of Asheville, want to build the $5 million solar energy farm on land they propose to lease from farmers, across Hoopers Creek from the park.
The Greens say they�ve invested six months and roughly $50,000 in surveys, site plans, engineering studies and manhours in their 2-megawatt project off Jackson Road, only to be stymied by a single power pole. John Green says he think there is a �hidden agenda at work.�
Council members say they are concerned about the project�s potential effect on the aesthetics of the park and on a conservation easement along Hoopers Creek. Council will meet at 4 p.m. today at the park to get clear on what the easement would entail.
The developers want the town to grant an easement to allow Progress Energy to extend its power line several hundred feet toward the rear of the park. Plans originally called for placing two power poles within the park, but the Greens offered to pay to bury the lines after town officials expressed concerns. The farmers who own the lands have agreed to have it voluntarily annexed into the town, allowing Fletcher to collect property taxes on about 20 acres, plus 20 percent business taxes on an estimated $5 million in solar equipment. The developers have also offered to pay the town $25,000 for the easement.
It sounds like a good deal, but some town officials are wary. Mayor Pro Tem Eddie Harris and Councilwoman Sheila Franklin are concerned that granting the easement might allow for trees to be cut in the park. Franklin says she also wants to know how the project would impact a conservation easement owned by the Carolina Mountain Land Conservancy along Hoopers Creek. She and Henderson say Green should explore other options to connect to the grid.
The developers say it would cost more than $1 million to upgrade lines on Jackson Road, and that would make the project unfeasible. Moreover, they say granting the easement will not require any trees to be cut, although they acknowledge it would require some to be trimmed.
Town Council is doing right to make sure it protects the park, a regional recreational asset and a huge draw for Fletcher. At the same time, Councilman Bob Davy is correct in his assessment that the project should have a minimal impact on the park.
It is hard to get much cleaner and greener than solar energy. Council should approve the project, provided it gets assurances from Progress Energy that no trees will be cut, and that other options to connect the site to the grid are not feasible.

I have been developing a sub-site on an existing WordPress installation. This includes creating templates based on designs from our art department and developing a plugin to display recipes. After I got the design and code working, I began entering all the recipes by hand. Then I passed the test site URL along to my team members to let them do some quality control. I then received an email saying that I had to-do items on Basecamp. Some of the to do items were hard to track down because my coworkers simply put in a title. We have ~50 recipes and so I had to scroll through the recipes to find the offending one.
So I started thinking. What if there were a way to streamline the entering of to-do items and add the URL as well? Originally, I was going to use a page with frames but I couldn't keep track of the URL after navigating away from the source page. Then I started thinking about the Evernote bookmarklet. It can copy a URL and even an entire web page. So I did a few searches on "bookmarklets" and came across an article by John Resig about using a bookmarklet to insert jQuery and then modify Digg.com. So I took the idea and began to got a basic jQuery dialog box loading into my page through a bookmark. Then I wrote a separate page to pull the relevant info from Basecamp and then populate some dropdown menus.

While some Minnesota fans think the team as a whole is playing like shit, insiders point to the crappy performance by several players—Liriano and fellow pitcher Carl Pavano among them. Don't count the Twins out just yet, though; they may get explosive yet.
