A good horror movie offers a thrilling experience that no other genre provides. However, many people find the violence, tension and dread too much to handle, so horror remains a bit of a cult genre.
What defines a horror film? There's more to it than just a spooky atmosphere and a machete-wielding psychopath in a hockey mask. Horror carries a broad definition, and it can be almost anything, as long as it provokes a feeling of fear, dread or tension in the viewer. That leaves a lot of room to blend with other genres, so it's not uncommon to see movies with elements of science fiction, romance or action in the horror section of the video store.
Many filmgoers are put off by violence and gore, so despite its broad definition, horror generally appeals to cult followings. However, some horror movies have escaped cult status and connected with audiences on a large scale.
Click ahead to see the 15 movies that found large mainstream audiences and became the highest grossing horror movies of all time, according to BoxOfficeMojo.com.

Dollar store strategies for national brands
The evolving dollar channel implications for CPG companies
The retail landscape and consumer preferences appear to be shifting, possibly for good. The consumer product executives we surveyed and interviewed seem to be realizing this, albeit gradually. The increasing consumer affinity toward new and improved dollar stores has caught the attention of both retailers and CPG companies. The shift in executives' views on the importance of different channels over the last three years is testimony to the significance of this trend.
The core dollar-store consumers with low incomes have been well served by the dollar product offerings, prices, and convenience. However, the new dollar consumers are surprised and appreciative of the national brand offerings and the dramatically improved in-store experience. Consequently, it is important for CPG companies to make the dollar channel a strategic channel.
Some consumer product companies have figured out the unique characteristics of the dollar channel, and have responded to the challenges of dealing with this growing channel in five distinct areas:
- Brand, product strategy, and innovation
- Merchandising and assortment
- Pricing and trade promotion strategy
- Supply chain, distribution, and operations
- Account team structure, staffing, and capabilities

I'm just don't agree that high protein, in general, is bad for dogs.

So the Heat really is a lottery team…
The Florida Lottery and the Miami Heat announced a partnership Monday that gives Powerball players a chance to fly to a Heat playoff game, win season tickets for next year or rake in other stuff.
From now through June 5, Powerball players who purchase a ticket of $10 or more will receive a voucher that contains a unique number to be entered at FloridaLottery.com.
The first drawing will be May 17 and the second on June 7, from vouchers submitted during the entry period for each drawing. One grand prize winner in each drawing will receive a flyaway trip for two to a playoff game this year. (Lottery officials are optimistic LeBron and Co. will still be playing in June. Just saying…)
Other prizes include season tickets for two, an opportunity to play a full-court game with nine friends at AmericanAirlines Arena (Court of Dreams), regular season home game tickets for next season, player meet and greets and autographed merchandise.

Undercover dating site
Rake explains that he wants justice but doesn't believe the three pills he took the young girl that night equates to 20 years of his life.
"He lives on the land and we just hunt for coyotes that go after his chickens. Rake attended and graduated William Blount High School in Maryville, TN, and is now attending the University of Tennessee in Knoxville, but hasn't started back this semester because he's unsure if he's going to go back to college or off to prison.
There was a girl on there, "that talked to me first," he said intimating she had an interest in him.
The conversation on Meet Me quickly turned to drugs.
A year-and-a-half ago, several Monroe County, TN police departments set up an elaborate drug sting to take down what the police perceived to be known drug dealers in the area.
The message they wanted to send, according to Sherriff Tommy Jones II was, "If you are involved in any type of drug activity…you will find yourself in prison.
Rake says he was no drug dealer at all, just a guy looking to hook up with a pretty woman he met online.

WARNING: Because of the sheer wondrousness of tonight's ep, we're posting early. If you haven't seen it yet, read no further. There will be SPOILERS!
I take it you saw the promos, Newbies? But still, wasn't the real thing so much better? Be honest: Are you still squeeing yourself? Without a doubt, this episode was everything — a DVR keeper — so brace yourselves for a long recap. Then, after you've read and rewatched (I know I will), come back to EW.com after the West Coast airing to read Jessica Shaw's chat with show creator Liz Meriwether and Jake Johnson about the decision to finally let this huge moment happen, the day Johnson and Zooey Deschanel shot the scene, and what he hopes will come of this game-changing moment. (UPDATE: It's here!)
And it will be a game-changer. There has been no shortage of chatter dedicated to the appropriate circumstances of a Jess and Nick kiss. How could the writers possibly present it in an appropriately fresh, non-trite way? One that wouldn't set the relationship (if there should be one) up for failure? Well, kids, I'm happy to report that they nailed it. It was necessary story-wise but just out-of-nowhere enough that the characters aren't painted into a corner and forced to resolve things in the immediate future; it was just emotionally revelatory enough that Jess will be thinking of that moment for a long time to come — and so will we. (Also? Jake Johnson? Stop it with your undercover hotness already. Seriously. How can a man so skilled at turtle face be this sexy?) Add to the mix the return of True American(!), a typically twisted and totally shipper-stoking Schmidt-Cece moment, and the rare chance for Winston to get a little action, and this was the ultimate episode. Onward!
To be fair, Nick didn't start the episode in top form. More like in female form — he was sporting a woman's trench coat that had accidentally been delivered to the loft. And yet he felt unstoppable — nay, "hot to trot!" while swathed in its "clean lines and pockets that don't quit." He even performed little Michael Jackson circa Jackson 5-style spins because he looked that damn good. Winston and Jess were not impressed, but their mockery was cut short when Schmidt emerged from his bedroom in a sheet diaper to announce he hadn't been able to "get anything going" with himself for more than an hour (the door had been open this whole time, mind you). He vowed to go out and have sex, and he invited "London Fog" Nick and "Last Lovin' on Labor Day" Winston to prowl with him. Band of brothers! (Goofily dancing brothers in Nick and Schmidt's case.)
"World's Best Wingwoman, reporting for duty!" Jess chirped, only to be told she was not invited because she's Nick's cooler. (Cooler, for the uninitiated, is a nice way of saying c—blocker.) Jess denied Nick's accusation, and he tried play it down. "It's not you… it's the way that you behave and the things that you say and the look on your face and," he paused, unable to deny the truth. "It is you! It's you. You're the cooler!" So Jess resigned herself to staying in for the night to clean her closet and try out her new ice cream maker. (That actually sounds like an amazing night. Related note: I'm old.)

Melbourne, Fla. – January 6, 2014 – A joint research team from Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, Mass. and the Preeclampsia Foundation has been approved for a funding award by the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) for their study "Heart Health 4 Moms: Engaging Women with a History of Preeclampsia to Reduce their Risk for Cardiovascular Disease." The study is one of 82 proposals approved for PCORI funding on December 17 to advance the field of patient-centered comparative effectiveness research (CER) and provide patients with information that will help them make better-informed decisions about their care.
Janet Rich-Edwards, ScD, MPH, Director of Developmental Epidemiology, Connors Center for Women's Health and Gender Biology, and Ellen Seely, MD, Director of Clinical Research, Endocrinology, Diabetes and Hypertension Division, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, will lead this three-year, $2.3M groundbreaking research project. The study will focus on education about the long-term cardiovascular risks of preeclampsia and provide tools for behavior change for women with recent preeclampsia to reduce their cardiovascular risk through an online lifestyle modification program (accessible by computer or smart phone).
The "Heart Health 4 Moms" program is the first of its kind designed specifically to inform young women with recent preeclampsia of their heart risk and help them to make lifestyle changes. The research study will test the program's use and impact on diet, postpartum weight retention, physical activity, blood pressure and patient awareness.
"We know that cardiovascular risk begins to diverge in the early years after a pregnancy complicatedby preeclampsia, so that there is a potential window of opportunity for prevention of cardiovascular disease through weight management, diet and physical activity," said Rich-Edwards.
"Our goal is to work with the Preeclampsia Foundation to develop an engaging, effective program that is widely accessible on the internet and can augment primary care to help high-risk women to change their trajectories and avoid cardiovascular disease," added Seely.
The "Heart Health 4 Moms" study and the other projects approved for funding by PCORI's Board of Governors on December 17 were selected from 624 applications submitted in response to PCORI's funding announcements. All were selected through a highly competitive review process in which patients, caregivers, and other stakeholders joined scientists to evaluate the proposals. Applications were assessed for scientific merit, how well they will engage patients and other stakeholders, and their methodological rigor, among other criteria.
All awards are approved pending completion of a business and programmatic review by PCORI staff and issuance of a formal award contract.
"Patient-centric research is at the heart of our mission," said Preeclampsia Foundation Executive Director Eleni Tsigas. "Recent survivors of preeclampsia are highly motivated to engage in this important intervention."
The "Heart Health 4 Moms" study joins PCORI's expanding portfolio, which now includes 279 patient-centered CER studies and initiatives. PCORI has awarded a total of $464.4 million since it began funding CER in 2012.
About PCORI
The Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) is an independent, non-profit organization authorized by Congress in 2010. Its mission is to fund research that will provide patients, their caregivers and clinicians with the evidence-based information needed to make better-informed health care decisions. PCORI is committed to continuously seeking input from a broad range of stakeholders to guide its work. More information is available at www.pcori.org.
About Preeclampsia Foundation
The Preeclampsia Foundation is a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) non-profit organization established in 2000. It is dedicated to providing patient support and education, raising public awareness, catalyzing research and improving health care practices, envisioning a world where preeclampsia and related hypertensive disorders of pregnancy no longer threaten the lives of mothers and babies.

The missus reports
The reason for having a lot of time on my hands is that the younger son is off to Udaipur with his grandparents. Suddenly, the house seems very silent. He is a noisy lad, my Gautham is, and a source of constant anxiety but he's also demonstrative of his affection and consideration, which makes one rather miss him. Vyaas, the elder one, is a quiet and mature boy, giving me little cause for worry. He studies on his own, watches TV only moderately (unlike Gautham who can watch TV for hours without a break) and generally obeys me unless there is strong cause to do otherwise. Needless to say, there never is.
The problem child here, of course, is the husband, who survives mostly because of a lacuna in the Indian legal system. It is a crime, apparently, for a wife to strike her husband upon the bean with a brick, regardless of provocation. Otherwise I would have done this ages ago and despite the said husband's skull being apparently fashioned out of solid wood, I would have, with this crude but effective technique, brought about some improvement. As things stand, I am reduced to using cold stares, knitted brows and pursed lips as an expression of ire, which is the matrimonial equivalent of using Madan Lal as your strike bowler with the new ball (I'm afraid I follow - or used to follow - cricket. I'm not very current these days but what cricket lacks in gripping entertainment it more than makes up by affording the struggling writer scope for simile).
He isn't very difficult to get along with, except when he decides to give reign to his alleged sense of humour which I find quite weird at times. For instance, this diwali I had expected a trinket of some sort - gold, preferably- as an expression of his love and affection. He got me a deodorant. I am not joking. A pink can with the legend "Pour Femme" emblazoned on it. I'm not a materialistic girl but MRP Rs.99/- is not really my thing. It showed in my expression, I'm sure of that, but that did not deter my champ. He was waiting for me to ask him what the hell this was.
I obliged. "What is this, would you mind telling me?" I asked him in the most sour voice I could manage.
He had prepared for this precise moment apparently.
"Dear, a deo, a female deo!" he sang, to the tune of "Doe, a deer, a female deer".
I counted to ten. The blood was still boiling. I counted another fifty. No change. I thought of jabbing him in the thigh with the potato peeler and had Big Boss 4 not started at that exact moment, with vociferations by the sweet Dolly Bindra at some hapless co-inhabitant of the dosshouse, violence would have erupted. As it was, he escaped with nary a scratch. He has promised to buy me bangle but we shall believe when we see.
Till then, adieu from

Along with the "Dear a Deo, a Female Deo", the missus was also expecting a "drop of GOLDEN something", which is where you erred, in only taking the first line of the song into consideration.
I suspect you planned this whole purchase just for the opportunity to sing that brilliant line, but unfortunately left it hanging mid- sentence.

February 25, 2013 02:02 ET
MOUNT LAUREL, NJ--(Marketwire - Feb 25, 2013) - Ulticom, the industry leader in Diameter signaling software solutions for Telecom OEMs, announces Release 3.3 of the Ulticom DSC -- a software product that optimizes Diameter Signaling in 4G and IMS networks.
The Ulticom Diameter Signaling Controller (DSC) enables Service-Oriented Routing™ and multi-vendor interworking between network elements in support of:
Ulticom's unique Service-Oriented Routing capability goes beyond the typical primary/backup Diameter reliability strategy. The Ulticom DSC serves as a Diameter router and load balancer distributing Diameter signaling traffic across pools of servers. The server pools can be represented to external network elements as a single highly available logical entity -- in effect a Logical HSS, OCS, or PCRF. The Ulticom DSC distributes load across the server pools, provides application specific routing optimization, and dynamically compensates for congestion.
Release 3.3 extends the DSC product with additional advanced routing capabilities. It provides enhanced network routing resilience and even greater flexibility for multi-AVP-based routing. Release 3.3 also provides advanced White Labeling support. This feature empowers OEM customers to rebrand the DSC product and supporting documentation, tailoring it to their own product portfolio.
"White Labeling enables our OEM customers to extend their brand capability while providing the most advanced DSC features in the industry," said Jamie McArdle, Vice President of Sales at Ulticom.
Ulticom's DSC is the industry's most powerful solution for Diameter routing. The Ulticom DSC is supplied as a Linux-based software product deployable on industry popular X86-64 hardware platforms. Ulticom has pushed performance to new levels with Release 3.3. Benchmarked on two HP 380 G8 systems, each running an Ulticom DSC Diameter routing instance, the DSC has been clocked at 864,000 sustained simple Diameter transactions per second (TPS) (equating to 1.8M messages per second or MPS). This same configuration, running the complex Diameter Routing Agent (DRA) functionality, sustains an impressive 580K TPS (1.1M MPS).
Ulticom's DSC provides a powerful, cost effective software solution leveraging Moore's Law for optimal hardware cost/performance over time. The Ulticom solution enables our OEM customers to select the hardware that best meets their particular needs. This enables tremendous flexibility for integrating the DSC with existing OEM product portfolios. Our software based solution also enables our customers to use virtualization and cloud-based solutions to offer signaling services in new and exciting ways.
"Ulticom's DSC underscores our commitment to the evolution of the signaling industry. Smart devices, consumer demand for data centric features, and new network technologies like LTE are placing ever increasing demands on mobile networks. Ulticom is committed to work with our customers to deal with these scaling issues head on," said Bruce Swail, CEO of Ulticom.
The Ulticom DSC is suitable for deployment as a Centralized Router, a Diameter Load Balancer, a Diameter Routing Agent (DRA), or a Diameter Edge Agent (DEA). DEA functionality supports LTE Roaming while DRA functionality provides advanced policy management signaling routing (IP-CAN Binding). The Ulticom Diameter SS7 Gateway (D7G) product provides the ability to interwork between Diameter and SS7 networks -- enabling 2G-3G-4G integration when working in combination with the Ulticom DSC.
Visit Ulticom at Mobile World Congress, Hall 5 Stand 5H40, for a demonstration of the Ulticom DSC.

SEATTLE — The Washington state social worker who was supposed to supervise a visit between Josh Powell and his young sons says Powell told his oldest boy he had a "surprise" for him moments before attacking and killing the children.
Elizabeth Griffin-Hall said in an interview to air on ABC's "20/20" on Friday that Powell slammed the door on her after he had the children inside the house on Sunday. Hall said she banged on the door to try to get inside and heard Powell tell 7-year-old Charlie: "I've got a big surprise for you." She also heard 5-year-old Braden crying.
Authorities said Powell used a hatchet on his children, then set a house fire that killed them all.
Powell's wife, Susan, vanished in Utah two years ago. Josh Powell had long been a person of interest in the case but maintained that he had taken his boys — then 2 and 4 — on a midnight camping trip in freezing temperatures when she disappeared from their home.
On Sunday, the social worker drove the boys from their maternal grandparents' home to their father's house outside Puyallup, about 35 miles from Seattle. Josh Powell lost custody of the boys last fall, after his father, with whom they then lived, was arrested in a child pornography and voyeurism investigation.
Griffin-Hall said Charlie and Braden loved being with their father.
"One of them said what he wanted to do was go home and live with his daddy," she told ABC, adding that the boys would "light up" during visits with Josh Powell.
After he got the boys inside and locked the door, Griffin-Hall called 911 and her supervisor to tell them what was going on. The 911 dispatcher's handling of that call has been criticized, and an investigation has been launched into the emergency response.
Logs show deputies weren't dispatched until eight minutes after Griffin-Hall's initial contact with authorities, though police say any delay would not have stopped what ultimately happened to the boys.
The social worker said she told her boss "something terrible is happening here, and I was on the phone with ... when the house exploded.
"I wanted to get to the kids," she said. "I wanted to get to the kids. I would have broken in if I could."
But Griffin-Hall told ABC she doesn't think she could have saved them.
"How this happened is that Josh Powell was really, really evil. I couldn't have stopped him," she said. "I did everything I was supposed to do. I did everything right and the boys are still dead."
She said she loved the boys and was like a "grandma" to them.
"The world lost two beautiful boys to a monster," Griffin-Hall said.

Hospitalists ease the stress of a hospital stay
Physicians lend a hand during treatment, no matter what time of day or night
"The doctor can't see you right now."
"The doctor has to approve this medication but won't be back until tomorrow."
"The doctor has been paged … again."
Nobody likes to hear these words, not even the doctors themselves, especially in a hospital setting.
Enter hospitalists, a relatively new trend in health care. From admission through discharge, hospitalists take care of other physicians' patients only while hospitalized.
"If mom needs to talk to us at 3 in the morning, there's always a fully-trained pediatrician right there, 24-7, 365 days a year," said Dr. Geeta Singhal, a pediatric hospitalist at Texas Children's Hospital. "The only delay is one of us walking from one part of the hospital to the other. That's it."
The American Academy of Pediatrics refers to hospitalists as a sub-specialty of pediatric medicine created from a section of emergency medicine.
"I can be in that patient's room four or five times in one day, because I'm already in the hospital," said Dr. Adriane Garcia of Pediatrix Medical Group at Memorial Hermann The Woodlands Hospital and Houston Northwest Medical Center.
This movement in pediatrics began about 15 years ago as clinic-based pediatricians became busier and the reasons for pediatric hospitalizations became more complicated. As a result, hospitalized children may now get continuous care from an on-site pediatrician, and parents never have to hear anyone say "the doctor is not in."
"Parents just want to be kept in the loop," Garcia said. "Pediatricians know that part of our care is parent care. As hospitalists, we have more time for feedback, more time for questions, more time for explanations and more time for updates."
But there's something to be said for wanting a familiar face during a hospitalization.
"Sometimes parents are a little leery because they already have a great relationship with the child's pediatrician," Garcia said. "So when a strange new doctor walks in, they're hesitant. But I explain to them that their regular doctor is very busy - they sometimes see 30-40 patients a day - that their child is sick right now, and I'm here, dedicated to their child. Their child is my one focus."
It seems to be working. The American Academy of Pediatrics Section on Hospital Medicine, citing "explosive growth in hospitalist programs nationally," reports that the average length of stay has decreased by 12 percent, with no decrease in quality of care.
But not only in pediatrics, said Dr. Tony Lin, chief of internal medicine hospitalists at Kelsey-Seybold Clinic. In 1996, there were about 3,000 hospitalists across the country, Lin said, and he was one of the first at Kelsey-Seybold. In 2012, there were an estimated 34,000 hospitalists nationwide, and most are internal medicine physicians.
The term "hospitalist" was coined in the New England Journal of Medicine in the mid to late 1990s for a form of high-quality, well-coordinated and cost-effective health care for hospitalized patients.
Twenty years ago, Lin began his career at Kelsey-Seybold by seeing patients in the office in the mornings and making hospital rounds in the afternoons.
Becoming a hospitalist brought more job satisfaction, but there were challenges, most notably improving communication with primary care physicians back in the days of phone calls and faxes. Today, electronic medical records make sharing information much easier.
Indeed, hospitalists do not stand alone, said Dr. Brent Mothner, pediatric hospitalist at Texas Children's Hospital.
"The key component is communication with the child's regular pediatrician, whether it's on admission or arrival through the ER," Mothner said. "During the hospital stay, we encourage the outpatient pediatrician to come in and visit because it can help with the emotional aspect of the child being hospitalized. And when the patient is discharged, we facilitate the transition of care back to the family physician or general pediatrician."
Hospitalists typically don't have the opportunity to build long-standing relationships with patients, but fulfillment exists in other ways."We're with them when they're at their most ill, most stressed and most worried," Mothner said. "That has quite an impact."

I am an 86-year-young woman who, admittedly, has no business walking my dog behind a deserted house after dark � even with a flashlight and cell phone in my pocket, cane in one hand and dog leash in the other.
A tree root grabbed me and threw me down on the cold, wet ground. I did have sense enough not to move because I knew my leg was hurt and bleeding.
This necessitated a call for help. So, I would like to publicly commend and thank the first responders on the fire truck and the other emergency medical personnel who responded to this call. I�m sorry I did not get the individual names to thank them all personally.
Their high degree of professionalism plus their genuine caring attitude made them persons that not only I, but all of Burlington, can be proud of and also rest assured knowing that such highly trained and compassionate personnel are available to help.
My other commendation is for the ambulance crew who picked me up when I fell when going into the First Presbyterian Church some months ago. At least I was trying to get there.
Both of these falls required a trip to the Emergency Room and resulted in stitches which have now healed.
At this time of Thanksgiving, let us all be thankful for these, our unsung heroes and heroines.

Orioles score early, often in win over Yanks
NEW YORK -- The return of the long ball. The resurgence of the offense. Raking from the bottom of the order.

NEW YORK -- The return of the long ball. The resurgence of the offense. Raking from the bottom of the order.
Call it what you want, Tuesday's win was a refreshing sight for the run-starved Orioles (3-5), who hit their season high by the end of the fourth inning and piled on en route to a 14-5 series-evening win over the Yankees.View Full Game Coverage
"We needed it," manager Buck Showalter said of the barrage of runs.
The 20-hit victory was a well-balanced attack, with Baltimore collecting its first multi-homer game of the season via two-run bombs by Adam Jones, Delmon Young and Matt Wieters. The O's got RBIs from eight of their starting nine, notched 20 hits for the first time since May 10, 2011, and surpassed their run total from the previous four games combined.
"I'm not going to make excuses," Jones said of the Orioles' sluggish start to the season. "The Yankees lost the first two games to the Astros. Are the Yankees done? You've got to be kidding. ... We don't buy into it as players. It's kind of just go with the flow and understand that this game is long, and the game's hard and look at the results."
The Orioles jumped on Yankees starter Ivan Nova with a three-run first inning, capped by Jones' first homer of the season. Leadoff man Nick Markakis got things going with a single, scoring the first run of the game on Chris Davis' shallow fly ball to center field. Jones let loose on a 1-1 fastball to score Young, who had singled in his first at-bat of a three-hit afternoon.
"Two things: [Nova's] sinker didn't have a lot of sink to it and it was up in the zone, and his curveball wasn't very sharp," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. "That's not a very good combination for him, seeing that those are his two bread-and-butter pitches. He just wasn't sharp today."
The O's got at least one hit from every member of the starting nine and scored seven off Nova, who allowed another run in the second on Jonathan Schoop's double and exited during a three-run fourth.
"Jonathan's going to be fine. So is Ryan [Flaherty]," Showalter said. "It's just, they've got so much want-to going on right now, and sometimes you can't get in the flow of letting it happen. And try as you may, you can't get them to look at the big picture, so you've got to keep making sure that they get confidence from the confidence you have in them."
Though he was the only starter not to drive in a run, Flaherty, who was 1-for-21 entering Tuesday, matched a career high with three hits.
"The guys at the top of the order do it enough that it's nice when the bottom half is contributing and putting some runs across," Flaherty said.
The offense didn't slow down when Nova exited, with Young launching a ball into the left-field stands for a two-run shot as part of a four-run sixth. Wieters went yard on Vidal Nuno's 0-2 offering in the eighth, extending his hitting streak to eight games.
Orioles starter Wei-Yin Chen was the benefactor of all that offense, picking up his first win in his second start of the year. Chen went five innings and allowed four runs on nine hits, striking out three and throwing 102 pitches.
"[Chen] threw more breaking balls and changeups and had command of the fastball," Showalter said. "He threw a lot of balls across the plate that went for base hits. He's trying to go down and away and just jerked the ball across the middle half. That's not him."
Chen allowed a first-inning run, but he then held the Yankees in check until a three-run fourth that started with a leadoff homer from Alfonso Soriano. He said through his interpreter that his fastball command wasn't on.
"Also, I need to get more changeup speed," Chen said. "This time, I felt a little bit worse than the last outing, but its something I will work on and try to get better at going into my next outing."
Chen was followed by right-hander Josh Stinson, who threw 2 1/3 scoreless innings to give the offense a chance to get to work. Lefty Brian Matusz followed him, giving up a solo homer to Kelly Johnson in the eighth inning.
"It was a lot of fun," Davis said of all the offense. "It was a long game, but it was long in a good way. [We are] hitting the ball really well, playing good defense and giving our pitchers a chance to get their feet wet and give some guys some looks. That's what it's all about."

According to the latest information from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and Prevention, one in six children born in the United States is diagnosed with some kind of developmental disability. By definition, this could include anything from ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) to autism spectrum disorder to hearing and vision loss. A CDC study released in 2012, which examined information gleaned between 1997 and 2008, noted a 17 percent increase during that time in children with developmental disabilities. The result is that 10 million U.S. children (15 percent) currently are struggling with some type of developmental delay — or worse. With this increase, Catholic dioceses and parishes — and even publishers — increasingly have been looking for catechetical expertise, tools and resources to better serve this specialized population.
The U.S. bishops laid the groundwork for this work back in 1978, when they published a statement on people with disabilities. A few years later, the National Catholic Partnership on Disability (In Focus, Pages 9-12) was formed to help parishes and dioceses implement the statement. The U.S. bishops provided another resource in 1995, with its "Guidelines for the Celebration of the Sacraments with Persons with Disabilities." Nearly 36 years after the first document was published, parishes continue to work at implementing faith formation classes — including sacramental preparation — for special-needs children. Unfortunately, this hasn't always been successful, and parents sometimes feel as if the Church is just one more place where they must advocate for their children. Some dioceses offer support at the chancery level. Others leave the parishes to develop their own programs. Some parishes offer no support at all. While reasons for this gap in services vary, they no doubt include the difficulty of training and even recruiting catechists, as well as the sheer magnitude of the ministry. Catechists knowledgeable in the field of special needs are even more difficult to recruit than catechists for abled children, and even well-established programs such as Special Religious Development and the Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy Program cannot meet all needs in the wide-ranging category of "disability."
Perhaps the biggest lingering concern for parents of special-needs children, however, has nothing to do with sacramental preparation, but rather simply with feeling welcomed in a parish environment. For many parents, attending Mass with their special-needs children can be one of the most difficult hours of the week. With shorter attention spans and often high anxiety, many children with autism or other developmental disorders have difficulty remaining quiet during the liturgy and as a result often are the recipients of frustrated looks or stares from fellow parishioners. At these times, the challenge for all is to remember the words of Jesus: "Let the children come to me and do not prevent them; for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these."
We are given no better example than that of our Holy Father, Pope Francis, who has made a point during his pontificate to embrace, literally, those with disabilities. Nothing could illustrate this love better than an image on a prayer card published by Our Sunday Visitor of Pope Francis embracing Dominic Gondreau, 8, who has cerebral palsy. While the photo was snapped last spring, it endures as a timeless reminder of Jesus' words and of the responsibility of us all to open our arms to all of God's children.

The first wave of the race consisted of varsity, junior varsity, sophomore, and freshman girls. Grand's two female riders, Brityn Ballard and Robin Willscheidt, completed three laps for a total of 11.4 miles, with Ballard placing 11th in the sophomore division, and Willscheidt placing 14th in junior varsity.
"Both girls had a blast riding through the dusty hills and made vast improvements as riders," said coach Christa Green, noting that the course starts out on the Soldier Hollow Olympic venue and winds its way through the hills and loops back.
In Wave 2 (freshman and sophomore boys), Nicolaisen pedaled to first place among 35 racers in the freshmen boys division. Red Devil teammate River Murdock placed 14th out of 48 in the sophomore boys division.
Each rode "a good solid two laps," according to coach Green.
In the third and final wave (JV and varsity boys), Bagley-Gurtner of Grand came in first among 51 competitors in the Division 2 junior varsity, while teammate Jamie Marshall placed fifth in the same category. Also competing for Grand, Maxwell Lesoine took 14th.
"The day of the race was beautiful and sunny for racing," Green said. "There were dusty faces as they crossed the finish line."
The fifth and final event of the Utah High School Cycling League series will be the state championship race on Saturday, Nov. 9 at the Bar M trail system north of Moab.
The races are scheduled to start at 10 a.m. for the girls, 11:30 a.m. for freshman and sophomore boys, and 1:15 p.m. for varsity and junior varsity boys.

The Friends of the Boston Harbor Islands is sponsoring a trip to Calf Island this Sunday, June 30. The island is not normally easily accessible to the public.
The Friends of the Boston Harbor Islands is sponsoring a trip to Calf Island on Sunday, June 30.
The boat will leave from Rowes Wharf Water Transport at 10 a.m. and arrive back at 2 p.m. The dock is at 60 Rowes Wharf behind the Boston Harbor Hotel on Atlantic Avenue. The closest T station is South Station on the Red Line).
The trip will run rain or shine; there is no rain date.
Calf Island is normally only accessible to private boaters. The island has no public ferry service and no dock.
In 1789 the Massachusetts Humane Society built one of its first refuge huts on the southwest shore. Today a brick chimney is the sole reminder of an early 20th century estate, "The Moorings," that was on this outer harbor island.
Laura Jones of No. Weymouth, has written about her family's history on the harbor islands, including Calf Island, in her 2011 book, "Generations: 1891-1940: Living on the Islands of Boston Harbor."
Jones' great-grandfather August Reekast, who emigrated from Prussia in 1891, became a lobster fisherman on Outer Brewster. He was also captain for actress Julia Arthur, who lived in a mansion on Calf Island with her husband, Benjamin P. Cheney.
Reekast's' son, Gus, was also a fisherman and caretaker on Calf Island. His daughter, Ida, grew up on Calf and Brewster islands, married Edmund Knoll, from Germany, and moved to North Weymouth in the 1930s.
A volunteer with the Friends group will lead a guided tour, and visitors are also welcome to explore on their own.

Millen, Hawk Blogger, Bob & Graz were all anti Wilson locally while brock and salk were on the Wilson waggon.
Yeah being from pennsylvania and only having Iheartradio as my means of hearing hawks news from a local standpoint I thought KJR was the only sports radio in town... I listen to Brock and Salk now but still really enjoy Mitch Levys storys and radio show. Softy was anti Wilson as well but I think that was Millen brain washing him.

CHICAGO — Early on election day, in two tight, tucked-away rooms at Obama headquarters known as the Cave and the Alley, the campaign's data-crunching team awaited the nation's first results, from Dixville Notch, a New Hampshire hamlet that traditionally votes at midnight.
Dixville Notch split 5-5. It did not seem an auspicious outcome for the president.
But for the math geeks and data wizards who spent more than a year devising sophisticated models to predict which voters would back the president, Dixville Notch was a victory. Their model had gotten it right, predicting that about 50% of the village's voters were likely to support President Obama.
EXPLORE: Full election results
Daniel Wagner, the 29-year-old chief analytics officer, erupted in joy. The model was also projecting that Obama would be reelected. And as the night wore on, swing state after swing state came in with results that were very close to the model's prediction.
For the nation, last Tuesday was election day. For Wagner's crew, it's now known as Model Validation Day.
"We're kind of a weird bunch of kids," he said, standing near the Cave, where one wall was covered with a large canvas of a Martian landscape. "I haven't seen the sun in a while. We worked brutally inhuman hours this cycle. Twenty-hour days, often. But they bet a lot on us being right. And it was good to be right."

1) Princess e no Tabi (プリンセスã¸ã®æ—…; Journey to the Princess) / Crowns and a Cradle When Prince Josquin de Marigny swept struggling single mom Sarah McInnes into a limo, he revealed a secret. Sarah's father had been in line for the Valmont throne -- and now her son was the heir! The brooding, blue-eyed prince promised Sarah everything she'd ever dreamed of if she would remain in Carramer -- except his heart.... Baffled and bewildered by the sense of homecoming, Sarah was torn. Josquin had given her a new family, but he'd also investigated her past, lied to bring her to Carramer and he'd be regent for her son. So once he took her in his arms, could she trust the promises he made? 2) Koi wo Wasureta Prince (æ‹ã''忘れãŸãƒ—リンス; The Prince Who Forgot His Love) / The Baron & the Bodyguard Watching over him... Playing royal bodyguard to Mathiaz de Marigny, the seductive Baron Montravel, was a temptation few women could resist. But the moment he was out of harm's way, Jacinta Newnham had fled his château -- and abandoned memories of moonlit nights that left them both weak with unfulfilled passion. Now stricken with amnesia and in danger once again, Mathiaz summoned Jacinta back to his side. Jacinta vowed to protect his life, but the greater peril was to her heart -- and the haunting secret she could never reveal. When the truth surrounding Mathiaz's accident -- and Jacinta's connection to it -- surfaced, would he force her to leave, or refuse to let her go again...? 3) Prince no Shukumei (プリンスã®å®¿å'½; Fate of the Prince) / The Marquis and the Mother-To-Be Back in her lush, beloved Carramer, Carissa Day purchased the perfect B and B for raising her babies-to-be. Trouble was, an aristocratic "intruder" proved she'd been swindled -- her new home was actually his royal lodge. Worse, he proved to be Carissa's teenage crush, Eduard de Marigny, Marquis of Merrisand -- now more irresistible than ever. Penniless and pregnant -- with triplets! -- Carissa had to flee. Eduard, however, had other ideas. Namely, a partnership giving Carissa a title and protection -- and giving him an instant heir. Still, even with reignited passion burning between them, even with a kingdom at her feet, could Carissa wed her first and only love -- and forever forsake having his heart?
