Horror Express (1972)
February 24, 2010, 05:28:30 AM »
Benmar Productions / Granada Films, 1972
Professor Sir Alexander Saxton: Sir Christopher Lee
Indianasmith's scientific colleague who dabbles in fossils and bones ~ starts all the nonsense on the train when his frozen fossil thaws out and starts sucking out the info in everyones brains. Unsure of whether he is first a Sir or a Professor: Saxton, I mean, not Sir Christopher.
Dr Wells: Peter Cushing
Saxtons opponent in the science world but also his closest ally when it is necessary to defeat yuck ugly monsters in the darkened train. Adept at what he terms "know how", aka bribery, corruption and squeeze.
Father Pujardov: Alberto de Mendoza
Creepy, unwashed and unhealthy Rasputin like priest who (a) sees the Devil in everything and (b) gets tired of being pushed around by the people he serves and does some pushing of his own. His horrible BO can reanimate the dead. Made an engineer, monsterized and incinerated by a burning train.
Inspector Mirov: Julio Pena
Urbane Russian policeman without a lot of education who becomes monsterized and learns a lot ~ especially that the darkness is not his closest friend. Insulted, kissed. stabbed, shot and dies. In that order.
Nicole: Helga Line
Glamorous spy in an oh-so-tight dress who tries to steal the steel formula and gets monsterized with a vengeance.
Captain Kazan: Telly Savalas
Crazy Russian Cossack officer. He knows about telegraphs, electrical currents, trains, that a murderer has two arms and that a horse has four legs. Knows so much, but sleeps with his clothes on. Has no appreciation of good vodka. Monsterized.
Irina Petrofska: Silvia Tortosa
Gorgeous Polish / Russian countess who becomes an ally in the fight against the Dandruff Monster. Totally understanding of everything except the phrase "Get behind me!"
Yevtushenko: Angel de Pozo
Bjorn Ulvaeus from ABBA lookalike, chess player, nosy engineer and quasi-scientist ~ monsterized.
Miss Jones: Alice Reinhardt
Dr Wells assistant and wearer of the frightingnest fright wig I have ever seen. Monsterized.
Count Maryan Petrofsky: Jorge Rigaud
Count, not like our Sesame Street friend who loves to count but inventor of the formula for steel. Gets monsterized.
Kompouserz nd lettre-seters off filum tittles shud alwaze chek there speli=ungs.
A cat o nine tails is standard issue for a Russian soldiers kit bag.
Where there is evil, there is no place for the cross, even on a canvas covering.
Two million years without a square meal will make your stomach growl horribly.
Priests that resemble Rasputin are not to be trusted, especially not with Satan running around.
Vodka tastes better if you gargle with it first and then toss the glass away.
It does not help your acting career by playing an inquisitive zombie.
Having a good Russian name like Mirov will get you a kiss on both cheeks. Facial cheeks, that is.
Britons will never be slaves and neither will they be monsters.
Mirov: Not that he deserves it, the dirty thief.
Father Pujardov: There is a stink of hell on this train, even the dog knows it.
Dr Wells: This brain has been drained.
Father Pujardov: "But he was blind. How can a blind man be a thief?"
Kazan: "Tell me, little father. You believe in the Devil?'
Mirov: I thought one of you might know what happened to the baggage man.
Father Pujardov: Where there is God, there is always a place for the cross, even on this stone floor, just so. But Satan is evil and where evil is, there is no place for the cross!
Mirov: One man missing, another dead! Its time we opened this box!
Father Pujardov: Thy will be done on Earth as it is in hell!
Kazan: Although I still believe in God, I dont like to be made a fool of!
Dr Wells: Monster? Were British, you know.
Father Pujardov: The history of your planet is part of me. Pull the trigger and you will end it.
Mirov: Oh, theres nothing in your head of any use.
Sir Alexander Saxton: No! You saw his eyes! One look at them and youre dead!
Kazan: "Fool, huh? On your knees, monk."
0:06: Is that the cameraman in shadow there?
1:40: That lights so bright, I cant read the credits and that might just be a good thing.
1:50: That is not the way to spell the name Christopher.
3:50: Apologies to Alex Haley and
but Great-great-great-great-great-granddaddy? You old African! I found you, I found you!
6:28: Ive heard of Master Card and Master Lock, so that must be Master Kee.
7:44: What on earth flew off his cap there?
8:10: Yikes: Is that Rasputin?
8:30: How can an idiot be a priest, answer me that!
11:36 Id also growl like that if I hadnt had much to eat for two million years.
15:16: If that is a chess piece then that guy must be Bjorn from ABBA.
21:00: That stink of hell you sense is your terrible BO that everyones gagging on, Father. Try having more than a yearly bath and haircut, OK?
21:57: Like I said, its your BO shes afraid of.
1.01.39: All I can say to that is
1.08.55: That line of Sir Christophers is pretty much what people say about my undies.
1.16.00: She really listened when he said Irina! Behind me! didnt she?
1.17.12: This sequence freaked me way back when and it still does ~ his BO can re-animate the dead!
1:19:24: I can imagine Pujardov singing I bin workin on the railroad ..
1:19:39: Inquisitive zombie alert ~ what is he looking at and what happened to Kazan?
1:22:52: So this is actually a sci-fi film and not a horror film? Interesting.
After discovering my great-great-great-great-great-African granddaddy in a cave in 1906 Manchuria, our friend Indy's colleague Professor Sir Alexander Saxton decides, after a serious battle with the railway clerks and meeting up with his nemesis Dr Wells, to load the thing onto a railway baggage coach. Before he can do this, however, the crate in which my great (x5) granddaddy is kept is left in the care of a guard who stupidly allows a Chinese locksmith to pick the lock and the thief is later found sprawled next to the crate, his eyes an eerie milky white.
Saxton discovers the wild-eyed, Rasputin like priest Pujardov trying to get at what he thinks is the Devil hiding in the crate and Pujardov proves that there is some weird stuff going on as he draws a cross in chalk on the floor and then tries to do the same on the canvas covering the crate to no avail. On being questioned by the Russian Inspector Mirov, Saxton denies there being anything valuable or alive in the crate, only to have this claim disproved when Pujardov crosses himself as the crate is loaded on the train and a horrible growl comes from within the crate. My stomach would also growl like that if I hadnt eaten in a while and I would also cross myself if I knew what was coming.
Dr Wells bribes the baggage man to have a look inside the crate at what Saxton and our own Indianasmith term a remarkable fossil which is thawing out as the action in the film proceeds. Or as long as the actor covered in all that crap can stand being covered in it as well as having one red eye which goes off and on like a broken traffic light.
Once the baggage man sees what is in the crate, he somehow cannot believe what he thaw as the thing is rapidly thawing out. Taking another look, he receives a very thaw headache as the creature looks at him with a vivid red eye, leaving the baggage man sprawled dead on the floor. I guess he should have thawt it over more before he thawt to look inside the crate.
Our glimpses of the monster are few and far between, but it appears to have a very bad skin condition, judging by the hairy, dandruff spotted arm that emerges from the crate. The Dandruff Monster then proceeds to hide out on the train after the Inspector and the conductor discover the baggage man in the crate and have Saxton arrested ~ bit difficult to do on a train ~ until his monster and a months supply of
Head and Shoulders
are found.
Victims pile up one after another, including the glamorous spy Nicole who is monsterized by the Dandruff Monster who is then shot by Inspector Mirov. The monster looks at him, collapses, dies and Mirov collapses after all the dandruff infests his brain, leaving him with a hairy palm and hand. As if this is not bad enough, he wakes up hours later and discovers that not only does he have a hairy palm and hand ~ should have listened to your parents, my friend ~ but that he is also apparently wearing my underpants, judging by his look of horror when he lifts the blanket.
Saxton and Wells discover that the Creatures ability to absorb power lies not in its brain, but through its eyes, judging by the bad animation seen when the scientists check the eye fluid through a microscope. After Father Pujardov pronounces to all and sundry that the creature is actually the fallen Lucifer, he steals the eye and presents it to Mirov who has just monsterized the luckless Miss Jones, sending her and her fright wig tumbling to the floor. Pujardov begs Mirov not to kill him and the Inspector (now the monster) dismisses him with a curt Oh, theres nothing in your head of any use.
Even though Mirov has given an order that the train would not be stopped, a telegram is sent to the nearest station, guarded by Theo Kojak and his merry frozen men who storm the train and arrest everyone, including the luckless Inspector. Pujardov gets whacked by a cat o nine tails and the Inspector ~ now revealed to one and all as the monster ~ is insulted, hit, stabbed, shot and dies, but not before transferring all his knowledge to the empty vessel once known as Father Pujardov, who then starts killing the soldiers, including Theo Kojak, who sucks floor, instead of a lollipop.
With all the passengers running screaming for the baggage van, Pujardov confronts the Count and kills him for his steel formula and tries to do the same to Irina when Saxton walks in, brandishing a shotgun and a light to ward off the evil BO of Pujardov, who explains that he is a form of energy, occupying this shell who was left behind on earth millions of years ago. Pujardov tells Saxton that with all the knowledge he has accumulated, he can end disease, heal the sick and use his powerful BO to re-animate the dead, which he proceeds to do, causing Irina and Saxton to battle their way through the undead soldiers to the baggage car.
Saxton and Wells manage to uncouple the baggage car from the rest of the train while further along the track, rail workers at a switching point receive orders to derail the express by changing the switch on the track ~ which they do, sending the newly appointed railway engineer Pujardov and his crew of white-eyed zombies plunging over the cliff. As Saxton, Wells and Irina watch, the train explodes, sending clouds of weird, green smoke into the air ~ thus destroying my underpants for posterity.
Produced by former HUAC target Bernard Gordon and directed by Eugenio [Gene] Martin, this film, also known as
Panic on The Trans-Siberian Express
was my first introduction to horror and also in a weird kind of way, my first introduction to science fiction films. Television in the then Rhodesia was in black and white and this film was made even more eerie with the total absence of color ~ it was only recently that I saw the film in color and realized that I had missed something vital: the all important red eye that ties all the monsters together, not to mention the bad BO, horrible undies and serious arm dandruff.
Sir Christopher Lee is credited with talking his long time colleague and friend Peter Cushing into remaining with the project ~ Cushings wife had passed on shortly before production had started ~ and to the producers relief, Cushing agreed to stay on after a lengthy conversation with Lee, whose final words to Cushing were See you on the set tomorrow, Peter. Lee is also credited with naming and shaming the Madrid Studios cuisine as being deadly with salmonella the principal sauce so the production must have suffered its share of ruined underpants as well.
What is amazing to me is the fact that this film was made for $300K and that, despite the low budget, it worked then to chill audiences and it still works today. The people that actually carry the film are Alberto de Mendoza as the monk Father Pujardov and the late Julio Pena as Inspector Mirov ~ the latter remaining courteous, even when he is sucking peoples brains dry.
As the female interests, Helga Line as Nicole, the spy and the gorgeous Silvia Tortosa as the countess make great eye candy but nothing more. Lee and Cushing ~ on whose names the film must have been sold ~ make a dynamic duo yet not as adversaries this time. Telly Savalas as the nutty Cossack ~ who knows a lot, except when to take his clothes off before going to sleep ~ almost steals the film with his OTT performance as Captain Kazan, smoker of cheroots, kisser of crosses and non respecter of good Russian vodka.

The film has an interesting history. One of the reasons it was made was because the filmmakers had the interior train sets and exterior model going unused after they made "Pancho Villa," which also starred Telly Savalas.
And Trevor, I hate to tell you this, but your underpants were not destroyed in the train wreck at the bottom of the gorge. So, out there, someplace in Siberia, there is still a pair of your underpants, waiting for you to reclaim them.
Actually, I don't think even an bomb blast would destroy your underpants. Of course, you don't want to be in them, when the bomb goes off.

I liked this movie, especially the bit with the creature, as the priest, talking near the end. It's nice t see a movie with an intelligent alien entity that can cross stars speaking like an intelligent being and not just acting like a boogeyman or some mindless monster.
I even liked the scene in starship stormtroopers pyew where the bug in the general's body spoke, so that may not be saying much.

A major weekend storm could give new meaning to March Madness for the thousands of fans in Kansas City for the men's college basketball tournament, blanketing northern areas of the nation's heartland in up to a foot of snow and bringing downpours and possibly, tornadoes, to parts of the South.
Forecasters said Friday that the storm expected to come down from the Rocky Mountains could dump 8 or more inches of snow on Kansas City and could also blanket Indianapolis, Omaha, Neb., and Springfield, Ill. More snow is expected to hit parts of the Northeast early next week, and the cold air may stick around for even longer.
"Baseball season's about to start. Let's hope this is it," said John Hart, a meteorologist with Storm Prediction Center in Norman, Okla.
Farther south, tornadoes are possible in Louisiana and Mississippi as the storm system moves east, while strong winds and low humidity levels could lead to forest fires and wildfires in parts of New Mexico and west Texas.
The new system could pose headaches in winter-weary Kansas City over the Palm Sunday weekend because of the thousands of people in town for the college basketball tournament at the Sprint Center. But a spokesman for Kansas City's public works department said it has more than enough resources to handle whatever the new storm brings.
"We are ahead of the game," spokesman Sean Demory said. "We have more than $1 million left in our snow budget, 17,000 tons of salt, and our crews are set for 24-hour activity on arterials and at least 12 hours a day on residential streets."
After two mild winters, this will be the third major snowstorm in about a month for the Midwest. Weather Service meteorologist Chris Bowman in Pleasant Hill said this weekend's storm will be similar to one in late February that brought white-out conditions, dumped more than a foot of snow in some areas, and forced the cancellation of several flights in and out of Kansas City International Airport.
"We're going to have a pretty major late winter-early spring snowstorm," Bowman said. "Right now, with the models trickling in, my preliminary thinking is a good swath of 8 to 12 inches of snow will fall along the I-70 corridor."
He said Kansas City will get rain Saturday afternoon, then snow in the early evening that will likely continue until around noon on Sunday.
Only last week, some areas enjoyed record high temperatures in the 80s for a March 15 that seemed to signal the end of a winter that saved its worst for last, with two major snowstorms in late February.
"It's fairly rare to get this powerful of a system this late in the year with the potential to drop that much snowfall," Bowman said.
Weather Service meteorologist Vanessa Pearce in Wichita, Kan., said the storm system will start moving into northwest Kansas on Friday night and march eastward on Saturday. The state's highest predicted snowfall is expected along the Colorado border, where a foot or more could fall.
Goodland is expected to get 12 inches of snow in northwest Kansas, while Wichita was expecting 2 to 5 inches and Topeka was forecast to get about 6 inches, she said.
The storm will start with rain before turning entirely to snow, accompanied by strong winds that could hamper visibility and create some drifting, Pearce said.
"A rain or snow mix could create a little bit of a challenge and hazardous driving potential," she said. "But for the most part, it's going to be just snow once major precipitation gets to some of those areas."
Pearce said Wichita has had 24.5 inches of snow since Jan. 1, more than 10 inches above normal, while Topeka has seen about 7 inches more than normal. In northwest Kansas, the nearly 28 inches so far this winter is about normal, but the additional foot expected on Saturday will push that well above average, she said.

2. Will the Ravens get other targets involved?
During a 25-15 victory over the Cleveland Browns, quarterback Joe Flacco targeted wide receivers Torrey Smith and Anquan Boldin a total of 14 times for nine receptions, 103 yards and one touchdown. Effective work for the most part, as Boldin was targeted five times for five receptions and 57 yards. However, Flacco only connected with Smith on four of nine shots for 46 yards and the game-winning score. What about the rest of the receivers? Well, not so much. Including running back Ray Rice catching two dump passes for 6 yards, Flacco targeted his other receivers 10 times for six catches for 50 yards with a long reception of 27 yards to tight end Dennis Pitta. Ravens coach John Harbaugh has stated a desire to get other receivers involved, including Jacoby Jones (pictured), who was targeted twice for no catches against Cleveland. The Raiders aren't an elite unit, allowing 28.6 points per game and ranking 21st in pass defense (245.3 yards). If the Ravens establish Rice, the play-action pass should be there for Flacco, and he could take some selective deep shots.

The PIAA golf schedule is so front-loaded that schools such as Mount St. Joseph Academy are already nearing the end of their league season, and as the Magic race down the home stretch, they appear to be well on their way towards a ninth official Athletic Association of Catholic Academies championship.
The outcome will be decided at the AACA tournament early next month, but the Mounties have already played each of their league rivals at least once, and in their closest match the margin of victory was 19 strokes (223-242 against Merion Mercy Academy). The Magic have won the tournament every year since it was introduced in 2003, and they were undefeated against AACA opponents for a number of years prior to that.
The Mounties made an appearance last Wednesday on their traditional home course at Whitemarsh Valley Country Club (they had hosted the Merion Mercy match at Philadelphia Cricket Club's Militia Hills course). With the top five rounds for each team figuring into the team scoring in a standard nine-hole match, Mount St. Joe dispatched visiting Nazareth Academy, 236-302.
The victory ran the Magic's record to 9-0 within the league, and 10-1 overall. The squad's only setback this season was an 11-stroke loss (207-218) to defending PIAA District 1 champion Radnor High School, in an August 28 meeting on the Red Raider's home course at St. David's Golf Club. Radnor was the state runner-up in 2011.
The Mounties knew they didn't have to drive themselves hard last Wednesday; they'd already scored a decisive victory over Nazareth on the Pandas' home course three weeks earlier. In fact, senior co-captain Nicole Mischler was given the day off, and looked on from the gallery.
The other senior captain, Jane Black, was paired up with the team's top player, sophomore Isabella DiLisio, in the first foursome to hit the starting tee. DiLisio has shot even par at Whitemarsh this season, and in Wednesday's relaxed outing she carded a two-over 38, with seven pars. Black came in with a 49 to earn a spot among the five official scorers.
The rest of Mount St. Joe's team tally was made up of one score from each of the other three foursomes. Freshman Joanie Gannon came in with a 48, and juniors Alison Snakard and Julia Shinkle recorded a 50 and a 51, respectively.
The other designated participants for the Magic were senior Margaret Mary Rilling, sophomore Maggie Schoeller, and freshman Megan Bray.
At a qualifier to place players in the AACA tournament, the Mount had seven players advance to perform at the October 3 event. They were, in scoring order, DiLisio, Mischler, Black, Snakard, Schoeller, Bray, and Gannon.
Last fall, the Magic finished their run at the District 1 tournament, where they finished two strokes behind Radnor in the team competition. Placing third overall, DiLisio was able to advance on an individual basis, and captured third place at the state championships, as well.

MESA, Ariz. - MIT split the first two games of the 2007 regular season, recovering from an 8-2 loss against Oberlin College in the opener en route to an 8-6 win in the nightcap. The Engineers' attack stayed relatively silent through both games with only one player getting at least two hits in either game.
Sophomore Chris D'Annunzio got the nod to start the MIT baseball season for which there has been plenty of excitement. With all the makings of becoming one of the league's top pitchers this season, D'Annunzio had trouble with his command in his first test of the season. The Engineers endured three wild pitches, four passed balls and a balk in the season opener, while the Yeomen jumped out to a 3-0 lead with three runs in the third.
Ahead 3-2 in the fifth, P.J. Carter capped a four-run inning with a three-run triple to move the Yeomen in front, 7-2. Oberlin picked up its final run of the game in the sixth after taking advantage of two consecutive passed balls.
D'Annunzio pitched 4.2 innings while yielding three earned runs. His counterpart, Jaremy Rich, went the distance for Oberlin, holding MIT to four hits.
After a tough first game, the offense awoke from its slumber in game two with two runs in the top of the first. Sophomore Thomas Phillips, who produced a run with a single in the opening frame, added to MIT's totals with a two-run double in the third. Oberlin answered with three tallies in the bottom half of the third and added another in the fourth to level the score.
MIT's freshmen helped the Engineers reclaim the lead in the fifth as Ben Bersanti led off the stanza with a double and Stewart Park followed with an RBI single. Junior Kevin Wheeler brought home another run with a sacrifice fly to give MIT a cushion it wouldn't relinquish until the bottom of the seventh.
After forcing extra innings with a pair of runs in the last scheduled frame, MIT (1-1) once again answered the Oberlin (3-8) attack with two runs of its own in the eighth. Stephen Toth provided the big blow with a run-producing triple, while Jason Witzberger also picked up an RBI. Stephen Nunez, who entered the game to pitch in the seventh, closed the door on another comeback bid with a 1-2-3 finish in the bottom of the inning.
The Engineers pitched by committee in the second game with six different pitchers working from the mound after sophomore Kevin Foley tossed a scoreless first. Phillips paced MIT at the plate, reaching base four times on the afternoon (including three times in game two) while driving home three runs in the winning effort.

Reebok's United Kingdom-based ancestor company was founded for one of the best reasons possible: athletes wanted to run faster. So, in the 1890s, Joseph William Foster made some of the first known running shoes with spikes in them. By 1895, he was in business making shoes by hand for top runners; and before long his fledgling company, J.W. Foster and Sons, developed an international clientele of distinguished athletes. The family-owned business proudly made the running shoes worn in the 1924 Summer Games by the athletes celebrated in the film "Chariots of Fire."
In 1958, two of the founder's grandsons started a companion company that came to be known as Reebok, named for an African gazelle.

Welcome to Becoming A "White Minority" in America.. Here's what you can expect.
Wingspan Portfolio Advisors contracted for Bank of America and now JP Morgan. Managers Melanie Pellegrino, Justin Belter, Kevin Conn, David Payne, and Jason Dickard acted negligently, forcing Americans to lose their homes. Wingspan Portfolio Advisors also discriminated against minorities in Hiring, Pay and Promotions and were sued for discrimination. Mgrs. referred to Blacks as "Niggers" and "Roaches". It's my belief Wingspan and BOA are complicit in the largest Mortgage Fraud in U.S. History.

A Simple Science Experiment Almost Kills TV Host During Live Broadcast
posted by Shared.com -
What happens when you pour liquid nitrogen into a bottle of Coca-Cola? Well, normally if done safely, you get to watch the Coke bottle launch up into the air like a model rocket. But what happens when the experiment goes wrong and almost ends in complete disaster and death? Jacob Strickling, a science based YouTube vlogger almost gave us the answer to both questions when he appeared on the Studio 10 show, which aired live.
Strickling was showing the hosts what would happen as he successfully launched a couple of bottles to the delight of everyone involved. It wasn't until he said, "let's do one more" before asking host Natarsha Belling to hold the bottle as it launched into the sky that things took a near deadly turn.
As he was prepping the bottle for launch, Belling continued to ask for instructions on what she was supposed to do once the chemical reaction began. Strickling wasn't being the most helpful of teachers, and his hubris almost cost Belling her livelihood, and nearly her life.

In 1955, Joyce went to the skating rink in hopes to hook up with Jimmy LeJune, but LeJune left with another girl named Joyce. So Jim Vetter seized the opportunity to ask Joyce out for a hamburger in his 1950 Pontiac hardtop convertible. Though nervous at 15, Joyce was up for the adventure and said yes. She had a good time, great hamburger, and the beginning of the adventure of her life.
On her sweet 16th birthday, they got engaged and married on June 15, 1956, a year after Jim graduated high school. Jim and Joyce celebrated their 55th wedding anniversary this past June. Their marriage has lasted the test of time and health unlike four of their friends who married during the same timeframe and later faced the death of one spouse because of cancer or Alzheimer's.
Health and happiness have never been an issue for the Vetters. Through the years they've bowled, water skied, skydived, judged BBQ contests. Joyce has played tennis and Jim has flown planes, practiced martial arts, earned his black belt in Karate, and practiced Akido.
"We've maintained a healthy mental and physical relationship," says Jim. "I use to ski with Joyce on my shoulders and we trick-skied, too."
Their active living and love lives produced three children the first three years of their marriage. Today, they have two children (their daughter Terri died at 7 from a rare bone morrow disease), two grandchildren, and six great grandchildren.
Through the loss of a daughter and most recently a granddaughter, the Vetter's marriage has been Krazy Glue strong. "There has never been a time that I was unhappy being married," says Jim.
There was a brief difficult time for Joyce six years into the marriage during a 1.5-year timeframe when Jim was working two jobs and never home. He worked full time at TWA and nights- and weekends as part owner of a bowling alley. "I told him it was either the bowling alley or us," said Joyce. Jim sold the bowling alley to his partner.
"I would never do anything that would jeopardize my personal relationship with Joyce," says Jim. Perhaps that's one of the secrets to their longevity.
The other is there is zero jealousy in the relationship. Both love, care, and have the ultimate trust for one another's faithfulness. Jim and Joyce say their marriage works because they are true partners in everything they do, yet somehow manage to keep their own interests.
"We're great together and OK separately," laughs Jim.

Get an alert when new Guns N' Roses dates are announced
After rising to fame in the late '80s, gaining worldwide recognition with their hit single 'Sweet Child O' Mine', the band went on to release five albums including the double 'Use Your Illusion I' and 'Use Your Illusion II', which was the first in history to walk off with both top spots on the Billboard chart. VHI has also named 'Welcome to the Jungle' Best Hard Rock Song - a fitting accolade for such a rock anthem.
Guns N' Roses' most recent release, and fifth studio album, Chinese Democracy went straight to the top of the charts in thirteen countries, as well as going platinum in 15. Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2012, GNR are still the most talked about hard rock band of the past 20 years.

text: We are living in an era of "Digital Darwinism," in which society and technology are threatening to evolve faster than communications service providers' (CSPs') ability to adapt. The acceleration of evolutionary change, which has had profound implications for consumers, businesses and governments, is evident in the speed of technology adoption: today, it is seemingly surpassing the pace promised by Moore's Law, which holds that the processing power of computer technology doubles every 18 months. The radio took 38 years to get to 50 million users, while the Internet took three years, Facebook one year and Twitter just nine months.

On January 16th, the Food Standards Agency of Ireland released damning results of tests it had conducted on different brands of burgers – and much to the shock of consumers who believed the meat was from cattle, some of the "beef" burgers actually contained substantial percentages of horse meat. The distributors initially connected to the mislabeled meat, including global food retailer Tesco (responsible for a burger that was 30 percent horse meat), quickly responded by pulling all their burgers from shelves in Ireland and Great Britain. It's not that unusual that some pig might end up in a burger, because beef and pork are often processed in the same facilities, but horse? Something fishy, and most likely illegal, was definitely going on.
As the weeks rolled on, the world found out that this was just the tip of the iceberg. Over just a few weeks, DNA tests proved horse meat "beef" was all over Europe – from Burger King franchises in Ireland to packaged lasagna in UK grocery stores – and it was being traced back to more than just a few distributors. And alarmingly, the percentage amount of horse meat in products labeled as beef began to grow much larger – some "beef" products were actually 100 percent horse.
In late February the scandal continued to escalate. One of the world's best-known food companies, Nestle, pulled pasta meals from store shelves in France, Spain and Italy after DNA testing showed two products contained horse meat. On February 26th, Ikea pulled its famous Swedish meatballs from its markets and cafeterias across most of Europe after one batch was found to contain traces of horse meat. Then on March 1st DNA testing revealed there was horse meat in the ground beef used at Taco Bell locations in the UK (although this is not the first time Taco Bell has been called out for hocking beef that is less beefy than one would expect). To date, mislabeled products have been discovered in the UK, Ireland, France, Norway, Austria, Switzerland, Sweden and Germany. Some products in the Netherlands have been recalled as tests are carried out.
European consumers are rightfully shocked. Although consumption of horse meat is actually quite common in some European countries, it is not common throughout Europe, and even in places where it is, outrage persists because they were misled by false labels. And because of the nature of the scandal, there was concern about the quality of the meat. Some meat tested positive for the equine painkiller phenylbutazone, which could potentially be harmful to humans. There is also a chance that horse meat from Romania could be contaminated with equine infectious anemia (EIA), which does not pose a risk to humans but could be an indicator of additional health problems in horses that may come from poor living conditions. A media frenzy ensued as European nations scrambled to figure out who was to blame, and authorities came to the following confusing conclusion, explained in a Guardian article entitled "Horsemeat scandal blamed on international fraud by mafia gangs":
It came from abattoirs in Romania through a dealer in Cyprus working through another dealer in Holland to a meat plant in the south of France which sold it to a French-owned factory in Luxembourg which made it into frozen meals sold in supermarkets in 16 countries.
So let's spell this out: the meat originated in Romania (other reports indicated that dealers from Poland supplied some of the horse meat), and its journey into the European market is a story of organized crime and a failure of regulatory systems and bodies. Romanian and French authorities assert that horse meat from Romania left the country correctly labeled as horse. When it reached France, the main processing company involved in the scandal, Spanghero, slapped on "beef" labels and sold it to suppliers throughout Europe – including Comigo, another processor believed to have been involved. They did it with the help of officials working within abattoirs and food production plants who may have been intimidated into cooperating. Head still spinning? This fantastic infographic provided by the Australian Food Safety Institute illustrates how the scandal unfolded.
In Britain, the scandal has led to a discussion about flaws in the meat industry, which is largely self-regulated. Workforces and budgets have been cut which means there are now fewer employees and less funding for enforcing existing regulations, and therefore fewer government inspections. As a result, European Union officials, European ministers and the European Commissioner for Health and Consumers Directorate, Tonio Borg, set up a meeting in Brussels on February 13th to discuss the flaws in European food safety controls exposed by the scandal, as well as how to fix the system. The meeting resulted in a three-month program of DNA testing of processed meat across the European Union. As for the culprits, The Hague-based Europol will be coordinating investigation among national authorities. Anyone involved in the scandal, and anyone caught on raids on premises, will be arrested "on suspicion" of criminal conspiracy to defraud.
Although none of the mislabeled horse meat will reach our shores, Americans' trust in labeling – such as it is – has been shaken by the scandal. Just like our counterparts across the pond, we're being forced to examine not only our labeling practices, but the ridiculously complex and decidedly un-transparent system by which industrial meat is produced and distributed.
As the EU moves forward to instate stricter labeling and inspection regulations, we should pay attention to the legislative battles that determine labeling for our food, such as bills to label GMOs and debates over meat inspection regulations. At the moment, we're facing a regulatory crisis of our own. The sequester passed Friday includes cuts to the USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS), which means potentially 2,100 fewer inspections at domestic and foreign facilities that manufacture food products as well as a leave of absence for all FSIS employees for approximately two weeks. This could have some serious food safety implications. Stay tuned and stay informed – because regulatory agencies all over the world have been shown to fall short in matters like these. We recommend, whenever possible, buying meat products directly from farmers, and from restaurants and processors you trust.

It is Karthika masa again and Lord Shiva will be worshipped on all Mondays of Karthika masa and I thought of bringing this post at this time. Ashwayuja masa ends and Karthika masa begins with Deepavali. This year Karthika masa starts from 29th Oct. From 29th to next 26th November we light 2 deepas/diyas in front of the house or in front of Tulasi katte.
It is believed that Lord Shiva blesses one with his choicest blessings if he is worshipped with Bilva Patra and Tumbe Hoovu. If you have not seen Tumbe Hoovu here is a picture of it from my garden, we have two varieties ..
You can make these Godhi laddus as Neivedya. Here is the recipe :
SashiKala's recipe called for Sugar and I have replaced it with Jaggery.
1 cup of wheat flour made 5 laddus shown in the picture.
You Need :
Wheat Flour : 1 cup (1cup holds 100 ml of water)
Jaggery : 3/4 cup (powdered)
Ghee : 1/2 cup (I have used only 1.5tbsp)
Milk : 1tbsp (this was not there in Sashi's recipe, I used it because of less ghee I had used)
Cardamom powder and dry fruits for garnishing

Yarn Bombing: The Knit Graffiti Movement
This international stealth subculture has been wrapping itself around urban structures for the past few years, and I, for one, can't get enough of it. I'm an avid lover of urban art to begin with so when you add a covert, colorful, crafty, non-destructive element to the streets, it's like having machine-spun maple cotton candy at the local county fair.
Yarn bombers target anything they find from sleeves on parking meters, trees, statues, to cars and buses. Like most graffiti artists, this group of knitters often tag covertly in the middle of the night. Some troupes, like "The Ladies Fancywork Society", wear crocheted masks while they work, and although it is technically illegal, the police have yet to make any knitter arrests.
I'm sad to say that I haven't had the good fortune of seeing any really great acts of yarn bombings in person, so I get my kicks by frequently checking the sites of my favorite bomber troupes. Here are some fantastic pieces I'd like to share with you. Enjoy!
Top Row
• I love this bright and colorful striped tree by Knitta Please.
• A knit picnic in Texas by Knitta Please.
• This bathroom is part of a fully crocheted room installation by Olek done for the Christopher Henry Gallery.
• Olek's homage to Banksy as seen in The NY Times article "Getting Cozy in Public".
• A knit bike in Brooklyn. Image by Steve Faust
Bottom Row
• The leg warmer on this Parisian statue is a piece by the founder of Knitta Please and the mother of yarn bombing, Magda Sayeg.
• "Wooly Bully", the bronze bull statue near Wall Street is another piece by Olek. You can see the video of her installation here.
• This mural piece incorporates knit, spray paint and stenciling and was created by Minneapolis knit artist Eric Rieger who goes by the moniker HOT TEA. You can also see the video of him installing this piece here.
• This Parisian pothole was decorated by activist Juliana Santacruz Herrera.
• This yarn bombed army tank is from the book Yarn Bombing compiled by the artists of yarnbombing.com.
If yarn bombing is rocking your socks off be sure to keep tags on the documentary "Yarnana - A Love Story" slated to be shot this summer about Olek's "Crochet Madness".

Where Should a Dr. Joseph Warren Statue Go?
As I described yesterday, Boston's bronze statue of Dr. Joseph Warren now stands in a courtyard at the Roxbury Latin School in West Roxbury. In 2011, the Boston Globe suggested that the city should find a more public site. But where?
One possibility is simply to leave the statue where it is. The school seems to care for it well. It might inspire the 300 boys who study there. Most telling, since the Globe's editorial no other institution appears to have stepped forward with more enthusiasm about the statue.
Another possibility is, of course, back at Warren Square in Roxbury, the statue's original site. That was fairly close to where Warren grew up. The traffic island where the statue originally stood is now too small, but there are some green spaces in the area, some already labeled with the Warren name. Yet neighbors might well see more to admire in Phillis Wheatley, honored in a nearby park, than in the slaveholding doctor.
Here's a third possibility: the approximate site of the house Dr. Warren was renting in 1775, the year he sent William Dawes and Paul Revere to Lexington and the year in which he died at the Battle of Bunker Hill. But where was that?
Earlier this year Charles Bahne looked into that question for Dr. Samuel Forman's blog on Dr. Warren. A strong nineteenth-century tradition held that the American Hotel stood on the site of that house. So locating the hotel on nineteenth-century maps helps to locate the house.
And lo and behold, the spot's on public land, near the established Freedom Trail, in an area that could use some friendly faces: Government Center Plaza.
As Boston 1775 reader Mark Jacobson pointed out this week, right now there isn't even a plaque to identify that site as important to the start of the Revolutionary War.

Written for Time Out
Boys will be boys. Not since 'Men Behaving Badly' has a situation comedy so delighted in the old adage. Ella Hickson's 'Boys' is as funny as the ITV/BBC kidult classic. But it is also a wounded look at a generation who feel the world owes them and know it isn't going to deliver; a plea for old heroic values in a society run by villains.
Final exams are done and the lease is up on Benny, Mack, Timp and Cam's flat. But before they go they're throwing one more drug-fuelled party to launch them into the aggressive adult world. Chloe Lamford's design creates the perfect conditions for a group teetering on the edge of an explosion. A leaning tower of pizza boxes and months of dirty dishes pile up against see-through Perspex walls with banks of lights behind; this room is both student kitchen and human pressure cooker.
Robert Icke's cool direction and his cast's fearless emotional immediacy and tight comic timing add a level of sophistication to this riotous sitcom. Like all the best parties, 'Boys' goes on too long. After a spectacular bin bag bust-up the last 20 minutes feel like a drag, tipping into easy sentimentality. Still, don't let this downer spoil a quality production that will leave you with laughter lines and troubled thoughts.
Runs until 16 June.

Setting up an air quality trailer in the midst of cattle pens at a feedlot will help measure gaseous emissions, said a Texas Agricultural Experiment Station researcher.
Ken Casey, experiment station air quality engineer in Amarillo, wants to measure ammonia and hydrogen sulfide emissions from feedyards. His research team is setting up two climate-controlled instrument trailers in different locations at a feedyard. The trailers will be equipped with two continuous emissions analyzers – one for ammonia, the other for hydrogen sulfide.
Samples from above the trailer are drawn into a heated manifold inside the trailer, where the analyzers draw a sample, Casey said. This instrumentation allows measurement of both ammonia and hydrogen sulfide with a high degree of precision.
Ammonia is an environmental pollutant associated with several undesirable issues that are both regional and extensive in nature, he said.
Two federal acts – the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act and the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act – establish reportable levels of ammonia, hydrogen sulfide and other emissions, Casey said.
In recent years, the courts have applied this legislation to swine and poultry operations, which resulted in a heightened awareness of environmental concerns within the agriculture community. To date, these acts have not been applied to cattle feedyards.
Ammonia emitted at feedyards comes from excess nitrogen fed to cattle and excreted primarily in the urine, Casey said. His research is aimed at determining when conditions are most favorable for emissions to occur. Then feedyard operators can better target mitigation strategies.

Combining the measurement data with meteorological data collected by other researchers at the same yard and an air pollution model allows the total emission rate to be determined, he said.
"Because we're going to monitor this over the course of a year, we'll pick up daily and seasonal trends," he said. "We'll be able to correlate the rate with feedyard and climatic conditions, such as pen moisture content, days since rainfall, temperature and solar radiation."
By better understanding the mechanisms that influence these emissions, researchers can establish strategies that may be useful in controlling them, Casey said.
"Clearly addressing the problem at its source through waste minimization potentially has the greatest effect," he said. That means not feeding cattle more nutrients than they need.
Hydrogen sulfide is the other pollutant Casey will measure. It, too, can affect human health, particularly at high concentrations. Although hydrogen sulfide is being monitored, concentrations are usually very low around feedyards.
"There is concern that even relatively low concentrations of hydrogen sulfide can have health effects as well," Casey said. Legislation in several states, including Texas considers threshold exposure limits for hydrogen sulfide in the community around sources of emission.
Float wind tunnel
Within a feedyard, most of the hydrogen sulfide emissions are thought to come from the runoff retention structures or lagoons, he said. Yard emissions are already being measured. The next step is to float a wind tunnel on the surface of the lagoon to measure emissions.
Additional measurements of the ambient concentration downwind of the runoff retention structure also will be taken, allowing an emission rate to be obtained through modeling.
"So in effect, we get two goes at measuring the emission rate – directly and indirectly," Casey said. "This will give us more confidence in the emission rates we have for these facilities."

Removing the cancer from the liver by surgery is the first line of treatment to be considered. In addition to staging, liver cancers are defined additionally by how they can be treated:
- Localized resectable: the cancer is only in the liver and can be completely removed by surgery.
- Localized and locally advanced unresectable: the cancer is only in the liver, but cannot be completely removed by surgery.
- Advanced: the cancer has spread throughout the liver, or has spread to other body sites.
The best long-term outcomes for patients with liver cancer are achieved when the tumor can be completely removed. When liver resection is not feasible, microwave ablation, which uses heat to destroy the cancer, is a very attractive alternative. - Boris Kuvshinoff, MD, MBA, Chief Medical Officer, Professor of Oncology
Outcomes Better than the National Benchmark
Liver cancer surgery is highly complex and should be done only by hepatobiliary surgeons with extensive experience. Roswell Park is a high-volume center for both liver and pancreas surgery, and over the last seven years, the 30-day and in-hospital mortality for both liver and pancreas resection is less than 3 percent — better than the national average for this important quality measure.
Roswell Park offers the following surgery options for liver tumors:
- Liver resection (traditional open, minimally invasive or laparoscopic): To remove the tumors from the liver, or remove the portion of the liver that contains the tumors. If the rest of the liver is healthy, up to 80 percent of the organ can be removed. The remaining portion will regenerate.
- Microwave (MW) ablation: This can be done open or by minimally-invasive, laparoscopic techniques. Ablation may be performed in conjunction with removal of larger tumors.
- Radiofrequency ablation (RFA): Similar to how MW ablation is performed, a probe inserted into the tumor springs to emit radio waves around the tumor, heating and destroying cancer cells.
- NanoKnife irreversible electroporation, or NanoKnife IRE: This newest ablation technology destroys tumor cells using high-voltage electrical energy. Multiple probes shoot electricity between them, poking microscopic holes in the cells, enhancing cancer cell death, but does not damage surrounding ducts and blood vessels. NanoKnife is very useful for treating small tumors in difficult locations.
What About a Liver Transplant?
All Roswell Park liver cancer patients are screened to determine whether undergoing a liver transplant would be a potential treatment option. Unfortunately, the simple fact is that more than 80 percent of liver cancer patients are not candidates for this type of organ transplant. Of the select few who are candidates, only one in 10 on the liver transplant wait list receive a transplant.
Not a Candidate for Surgery?
Get a Second Opinion
We offer several neoadjuvant treatments (treatment given before surgery) such as some forms of radiation and/or chemotherapy to shrink the tumor first. Patients with advanced or borderline resectable cancers may have their tumors downsized before surgery. In addition, we offer portal vein embolization (PVE). This technique may be done in cases where the amount of healthy liver that would remain after liver surgery would be too small. PVE stimulates liver regeneration before surgery.
Neoadjuvant treatments may allow:
- Complete and curative tumor removal by surgery
- A patient who was not a surgical candidate at diagnosis, to now undergo surgery
- A decreased risk for major complications
In addition, we offer several ablation therapies for liver cancer patients who cannot undergo surgery.

Adding multiple images to products in PrestaShop 1.5
In our last tutorial, we showed you how to add one image to a product in PrestaShop 1.5. It is easy to add multiple images to products, simply repeat the same exact steps for adding an image. In this article, we'll highlight what your product pages look like with multiple images.
Products with only one image
When you have a product with only one image, the product page will look similar to the screenshot to the right. It is a very basic page showing only one product image. You can click the product image and it will be shown with a lightBox type of affect.
Products with multiple images
Because we're selling a book, we decided to upload two additional images: a back cover photo and an image of the book's table of contents. You can see in the screenshot to the right that our PrestaShop admin dashboard shows all three images, and one is highlighted with a green check mark as the product's Cover.
When we look at our product's page, we still see the picture of the cover of the book, but underneath this cover photo are thumbnails of all product images uploaded. If you hover over each thumbnail, a larger size preview will show where the main cover currently shows.

PALM HARBOR, Fla. (AP) – The PGA Tour event in Tampa Bay has new life with a new title sponsor.
The tour announced Friday that Valspar, a Minneapolis-based paint company, has signed on as the title sponsor for the next four years. The Valspar Championship will be March 13-16, and it keeps intact a Florida swing of four straight tournaments in March.
The tournament is held on the Copperhead course at Innisbrook, which several players regard as one of the best tournament courses in Florida.
BB&T Corp., out of Winston-Salem, N.C., will be the presenting sponsor for the next four years.
The Tampa Bay tournament did not have a title sponsor last year. There were questions whether it could continue in 2014 without one. Valspar is the fourth title sponsor since 2003.

Louis Vuitton Strikes Again: Shuts Down Art Exhibit That Commented On LV Trademarks
from the parody? dept
I was reminded of both of these cases recently when I was catching up on recent episodes of the TV show Mythbusters. In one episode, the myth being tested is whether or not you can build a cannon out of leather. In the final attempt, Mythbuster Kari Byron decides to "decorate" the cannon, and does so with symbols that, again, mimic the LV design, turning it into a "designer cannon." Unfortunately, it looks like Discovery doesn't let you embed clips (why, Discovery, why?), but here's a quick screen shot that I took:
ChurchHatesTucker points us to the news that LVMH has shut down an art exhibit in Japan that involved sculptures of nine locusts, that were each made from counterfeit Louis Vuitton bags:
a play on the words batta ("locust") and battamon (slang for "knockoff"). According to the artist, the works are meant to raise questions about the relationship between authenticity and imitation in a consumer-driven society.It seems like that's a perfectly good subject for commentary through art, and it seems ridiculous that LVMH is stifling the artist's work. Nothing in this exhibit is going to make anyone think that it was endorsed by LVMH. It certainly isn't doing anything to create consumer confusion. The artist is pissed off, but the museum said it didn't want to deal with a legal fight, so this artist's work gets taken down as yet another company abuses trademark law. Watch out, Mythbusters, you may be next...

now that the rules for autofire have (finally) been decided, i present you with a variation of the same thing: the Heavy Machinegun.
(note: not mine, but i needed a quick picture to get the idea across).
the heavy MG is a weapon designed specifically for the purpose of mowing down several units at once, or providing suppresive fire. a heavy MG does both.
to use, it is quite simple. the heavy MG has a 12" range, and attacks all targets within a cone of fire (hooray fingercones!). to determine damage, it is as follows. first, make a successful skill roll (over 4) against targets in the cone. then, do 1d10 - (fingercone) points damage. EXAMPLE: a two finger cone is 1d10-2 damage, 3 fingers is 1d10-3, etc. if a target is taking the entire blunt of the attack (this means that at both cone ends, the target overlaps), then you do double damage. the downside of this weapon is that it requires a turn to set it up (open up the tripods, etc), but the payout is worth it.
HMGs also provide suppresive fire. any unit caught within the cone for longer than one(1) turn is suppressed. this means they can't take any action other than movement, and even that is reduced by 1d4 inches.
in a similar vein, miniguns follow the same rules, but with 1d12-(fingercone) damage instead. they also take a full turn to warm up, but minifigs can walk while firing them (at 1" per turn).
any of these weapons can be made bigger and put on vehicles by using standard "multiply by weapon size" rules, except range is only increased by 6" for each size up.

CRESTVIEW � The P.J. Adams Parkway-Antioch Road corridor could begin providing traffic congestion relief in less than 10 years � and without raised taxes � if local and county governments support a tax increment financing proposal.
Attendees at a Dec. 2 Crestview Area Chamber of Commerce panel discussion learned that the plan, known as a TIF, could even be in place within a year.
Panelists described the virtues of a TIF, which is funded by establishing a baseline and allocating the difference between the baseline and future tax increases to a specific project.
"A TIF is a tool for financing something that you need for the public good," Okaloosa Economic Development Council Vice President Kay Rasmussen said. "People assume (that) because 'tax' is in the name, it's a new tax, and that is not what it is."
Designated by law
Money raised in the TIF district � which would encompass all of the county north of the Eglin reservation � would by law be only used for the corridor, Crestview city planner Eric Davis said.
"We must tell the public this is not a new tax and it will not get raided by future (county) commissions for other projects," Davis said.
At local attorney Mike Chesser's urging, Davis and other officials began looking into the TIF concept as a means of raising local matching dollars to attract federal and state road money.
"If the TIF can grow to $40 or $50 million, then we can come to the table for the next grant the federal government has and we can say, 'Come on: We have the plans, we have the land � give us the money,'" Davis said.
The proposed traffic corridor project would include widening P.J. Adams and Antioch to four lanes from State Road 85 to U.S. Highway 90.
A recently state-approved alternative route would branch off at Arena Road for northeast-bound traffic, allowing west-bound traffic to Holt and Baker to follow the existing route.
Ready in a year
The project's expected cost is $120 million. A University of West Florida Haas Business Center study shows a TIF could raise $47 million in matching funds in 20 years.
Construction could actually begin well before the TIF expires, using its future funds as collateral to raise bonds to finance the corridor.
TIFS are already successfully in place in several county communities, including Crestview's Community Redevelopment Agency district, Former Elections Supervisor Pat Hollarn said.
Davis said a draft TIF ordinance has been prepared and, if approved, could be in place by the next fiscal year.

After lengthy search, Murphy feels he's found swing
CLEVELAND -- David Murphy felt like he had been searching for his swing for more than a year. Before he stepped up to the plate Sunday afternoon, the Indians outfielder felt like things were in order during his pregame work in the batting cage.
When that feeling carried over into Sunday's game against the Twins, Murphy felt a sense of relief.
CLEVELAND -- David Murphy felt like he had been searching for his swing for more than a year. Before he stepped up to the plate Sunday afternoon, the Indians outfielder felt like things were in order during his pregame work in the batting cage.
When that feeling carried over into Sunday's game against the Twins, Murphy felt a sense of relief.
"It's an answer to prayer, honestly," Murphy said.
Not to make too much of one game, but Murphy churned out four hits in Cleveland's 10-7 loss to Minnesota. The veteran outfielder knows it is a small sample size, but he also knows that the feeling he had in the batter's box was something that had been missing throughout Spring Training and during last season with the Rangers.
It marked the ninth game with at least four hits in Murphy's career, but his first since June 27, 2012. Before his four-hit outburst against the Twins, Murphy had been in an 2-for-14 spell to open the season.
"That felt great," Murphy said. "I think your goal as a hitter is to feel comfortable and feel great in the box. That feeling has kind of been few and far between for the last year for me. [Sunday] was obviously one day, but the feeling was there and hopefully we can build on that."
What impressed Indians manager Terry Francona was Murphy's use of the whole field. The right fielder had two hits to right field and another pair to left during the outburst. It was the kind of line-to-line showing that Cleveland envisioned when it inked Murphy to a two-year contract worth $12 million over the offseason.
"He hit the ball all over the field, from the right-field line to the left-field line," Francona said. "Obviously, he felt pretty good. That's the type of hitter he can be -- line to line. He can hit a lot of doubles and give us some punch that way."
The 32-year-old Murphy hit .304 with 15 home runs, 61 RBIs and an .859 OPS in 147 games for Texas in 2012, but then dropped off considerably a year ago. In 142 games for the Rangers last year, Murphy hit .220 with 13 homers, 45 RBIs and a .656 OPS. This past spring, when Murphy hit just .204 with 17 total bases in 18 Cactus League games, it was hard not to get discouraged.
"At times," Murphy said. "I was kind of in-between. On one hand, I knew it was Spring Training and I knew that I'm basically getting work in and trying to figure some things out. At the same time, that feeling just wasn't coming. That can be a difficult feeling. The good thing is I felt like my last week of spring was the best week."
Murphy has said numerous times that he put too much pressure on himself last season, partly due to the fact that the Rangers lost Josh Hamilton to free agency. He got away from his usual approach, tried to generate more power in his swing and it backfired. In Cleveland's versatile lineup, he no longer feels as much weight on his shoulders.
"I don't feel like I need to do too much," Murphy said. "And I think after last year, I learned my lesson also. Regardless of what type of lineup I was coming to, I think the lesson was to come in here and to be me."

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Following another successful campaign, the MIT men's volleyball team collected 19 honors from the North East Collegiate Volleyball Association (NECVA). The award tally equals a program-best total which was first established in 2007.
For the second year in a row and third time in his career, head coach Paul Dill was voted the New England Division Coach of the Year. He helped guide the Engineers to their seventh straight 20-win season, the program's second New England Division Championship, and an unblemished record at home.
Tim Lee was named the New England Division Player of the Year in addition to earning spots on the New England All-Division First Team, NECVA All-Conference Second Team, and NECVA Championship All-Tournament Team. Ken Siebert collected New England Division Rookie of the Year plaudits to go along with All-Division First Team accolades.
Matt Hohenberger, the reigning NECVA and New England Division Rookie of the Year, was selected to the New England All-Division First Team and NECVA All-Conference Second Team for the second consecutive season while David Thomas was tabbed for New England All-Division First Team, NECVA All-Conference First Team, and NECVA Championship All-Tournament Team honors. Patrick Vatterott rounded out the squad with a slot on the New England All-Division Second Team.
The Cardinal and Gray received the NECVA Academic Team Award for the sixth time while Benson George, Hohenberger, Thomas, Vatterott, and Garrett Winther received individual All-Academic Team accolades.

Keith Urban Brings Home 'You Gonna Fly' at 2011 CMA Awards
After Blake Shelton performed his theatrical opening version of 'Footloose' and the Band Perry claimed the first award of the night with their single 'If I Die Young,' Keith Urban brought Bridgestone Arena to its feet with 'You Gonna Fly.'
Before Urban even appeared on the central stage in his signature black T-shirt and jeans, hosts Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley pulled out Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman "Barbies," which bore a similarity to the celebrity couple -- aside from the fact that Nicole's auburn coiffure looked more like Disney's Ariel when converted to Barbie form.
Launching into his hit, Urban kicked up the energy of the evening, walking out into the crowd and churning out a crowd-pleasing guitar solo on his way to a second stage. Though his apparel was considerably less country than his cowboy hat-clad peers, Urban had no problem working the country crowd. Shaking his hips to the groove and interacting with the high-energy fans, he went out with a kick, leaving the stage for Sara Evans and her performance of 'A Little Bit Stronger.'
