Have I told you about the scent of jasmine? Have I spoken about the smell of the sea? The earth is scented. And I perfume myself to enhance what I am. That's why I can not wear a perfume that bothers me. Perfuming is an instinctive wisdom. And like all art, it requires some knowledge of yourself..."

"The beginning of freedom is the realization that you are not the "thinker." The moment you start watching the thinker, a higher level of consciousness becomes activated. You then begin to realize that there is a vast realm of intelligence beyond thought, that thought is only a tiny aspect of that intelligence. You also realize that all the things that truly matter - beauty, love, creativity, joy, inner peace - arise from beyond the mind.
You begin to awaken"

Business Employment Dynamics (BED)—which measure establishment-level net changes in employment—gross job gains fell from 7,670,000 in the fourth quarter of 2007 to 5,783,000 in the first quarter of 2009, a 24.6-percent decline. (The National Bureau of Economic Research dated the most recent recession as having begun in the fourth quarter of 2007 and ended in the second quarter of 2009).
BED gross job losses rose from 7,384,000 to 8,524,000 from the fourth quarter of 2007 to the first quarter of 2009 (a 15.4-percent increase).
From the fourth quarter of 2007 to the first quarter of 2009, the Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS)—which measures the number of workers hired into jobs and the number of workers separated from their employer—measure of hires fell by 24.5 percent, from 14,472,000 at the beginning of the period to 10,925,000 at the end, and the JOLTS measure of separations fell by 7.3 percent, from 14,215,000 to 13,173,000.

Lady Gaga expresses gratitude to fans and supporters after hip surgery
Los Angeles, CA, United States (4E) – Lady Gaga, following a hip surgery rooting from an injury last month that caused her to postpone several of her "Born this way Ball" concerts, has expressed her gratitude to fans and supporters Wednesday.
In a post on her blog, gaga wrote, "Monsters, You really gave me a lot of strength today. Everything happened so fast, but when it came time to face it I reflected on the many stories and experiences you've shared with me about your lives. Meeting you backstage, reading your letters, watching you communicate with fans from around the globe to form a community that supports one another–You have completely blown my mind."
She continued, "As they wheeled me into surgery today, I thought about all of your pain and perseverance, your unique family situations, school environments, health issues, homelessness, identity struggles — sometimes you are so brave that it terrifies me. I wonder how it's even possible. So I thought to myself, I'm alive, I'm living my dream, and this is just a bump in the road. I'm grateful because this is temporary, and for some it is not."
"You have changed my life. I love you and am proud to be a part of your lives. If you can do it, I can do it too, and if we stick together we can get through anything. Love, Gaga"
Lady Gaga, or Stefani germanotta in real life, has been suffering from synovitis, a severe joint inflammation caused by a concert injury, which she has hid from her staff for quite some time. On Wednesday, right before surgery, she tweeted, "Going in for surgery now. Thank you so much for sending me love and support. I will be dreaming of you."
Last Saturday, since she could not be walking around due to her injury, Gaga tweeted a photo of her newest companion of late, a wheelchair named Emma.

"Lyman's Boys" wins awards
At an awards ceremony in London, Sean and Beverly Lincoln, successful producers of a hit British TV show called Lyman's Boys, are wooed by a hugely powerful and charismatic US network executive who persuades them to move out to LA to remake their hit show for an American audience.
Star of "Lyman's Boys", British actor Julian Bullard
Sean and Beverley Lincoln hope to bring with them the star of the UK production, distinguished British actor Julian Bullard (Richard Griffiths) as the headmaster of an old-fashioned boarding school.
Bullard's (re-)audition
Rejecting Bullard for being too English, the Lincolns soon come face-to-face with what the American execs have in store for their precious show, and the Hollywood remake machine swings into action, as the networks starts looking into hiring someone else.
Perhaps the quintessential American comedy star Matt LeBlanc?
Carol rings to tell Beverly and Sean the great news they've had from Matt LeBlanc's agent - he's desperate to do the show!

by ABC6 Chief Political Reporter Mark Curtis
Developmentally disabled people who work and train at the Birch School in Providence, and at TTP (Training Through Placement) in North Providence, will be treated better in the future.
This after a federal investigation found that dozens of intellectually disabled workers were paid anywhere from just 14 cents to $2 dollars per hour.
Eve Hill of the U.S. Department of Justice said, "These people were robbed of years of productivity, learning and contributing to their communities."
The disabled employees did tasks such as shrink wrapping remote controls, or packaging jewelry, but still could have been paid the minimum wage of $7 dolllars-25 cents per hour.
ABC6 Chief Political Reporter Mark Curtis said, "State and Providence School officials say changes have already been here at the Birch School and elsewhere to prevent these kinds of abuses from ever happening again."
The Birch School is run by the Providence School Committee, to teach the developmentally disabled.
It's located at Mount Pleasant High School.
While today's legal action was a civil case, no one is saying if those who ran the programs will be charged.
Peter Neronha, the U.S. Attorney for Rhode Island said, "I think I'll just leave it at that. We don't comment on whether there is, or isn't a criminal investigation."
Regardless, advocates for the disabled say this is a huge win for their clients.
Attorney Ann Mulready from the Rhode Island Disability Law Center said, "It is incredibly critical, as we heard today, about the minuscule wages that people were making."
Workers, who were shortchanged, could receive back wages for many years of services.

In truth, they probably don't have a spot for you. They need to know you're out there, though.
The Phillies got more outstanding pitching last night and won again, topping the Nationals 3-1 to take the four-game set three games to one.
The Phils have started July by going 7-3 against the Pirates, Braves and Nats and have leaned heavily on their starting rotation to do so. They did again last night as Kendrick had to work around miserable defense to hold the Nats to a run over seven innings.
The Phils made four errors in the game, three charged to Utley. Ruf looked shaky at first, Delmon Young airmailed a throw to the plate as the Nats scored their only run of the game and Washington had their second batter reach on a strikeout in two days.
It was the team's fourth win in five games. In the four wins, their starting pitching has allowed three earned runs in 28 1/3 innings, throwing to an 0.95 ERA and an 0.88 ratio. The Phils got two perfect innings from the pen last night, but their pen is awful. The offense hasn't been doing a whole lot, either. The Phils are 3-1 over their last four games and have scored 11 runs in those games combined (2.75 per game).
The Phillies are 46-47 on the year after beating the Washington Nationals 3-1 last night. The Phillies take the series three games to one. They've won four of their last five and are 7-3 in July.
Kendrick got the start for the Phillies and went seven innings, allowing a run on five hits and a walk. One of the hits went for extra-bases, a triple. He struck out two.
Great start for Kendrick come off of a pair of outings in which he had allowed ten runs in 11 innings on 22 hits and opponents hit .423 against him.
Ian Desmond singled to left with one out in the top of the first. Bryce Harper was next and grounded to Ruf at first. Ruf fielded and threw to Rollins at second to force Desmond for the second out with Harper safe at first. Harper stole second before Ryan Zimmerman drew a walk, putting runners on first and second for Jayson Werth. Werth singled to left on an 0-1 pitch, but Brown made a strong and accurate throw home to nail Harper at the plate and end the inning.
Nice throw by Brown. Video replay suggests Harper was safe as could be, but let's not quibble. Was still a nice throw. Two hits, a walk and a stolen base for the Nats in the frame, but no run.
Utley dropped a foul ball in Denard's Span at-bat for his first of three errors of the game, but Span lined to Utley for the first out of the game. Utley actually less dropped it so much as collided with Ruf, allowing it to fall. Ruf was pretty much right under it and ready to catch it and Utley plowed him over.
Kendrick threw a 1-2-3 second.
He struck pitcher Jordan Zimmermann out swinging 0-2 on a pitch not handled by Ruiz to start the third. It went as a wild pitch by Kendrick and Zimmermann was safe at first. Denard Span was next and bunted into a double-play — Ruiz fielded, threw to second to get Zimmermann and Rollins relayed to Ruf in time to double-up Span. Desmond grounded back to Kendrick to end the frame.
Washington wastes Zimmermann's strikeout. Second time in two games the Nats reached on a strikeout on a wild pitch, but Ruiz follows that up by starting the double-play.
Span didn't run when he bunted into the double-play, which seemed like an odd choice. Presumably he thought the ball was foul.
Werth singled with two outs in the fourth. LaRoche got ahead in the count and hit a 3-0 pitch towards right. Utley fielded it moving to his right, dropped it, picked it up and threw to first on a bounce. Ruf couldn't handle the throw and Utley was charged with two errors on the play, one for muffing the grounder and the other for throwing it away after unmuffing it. Werth wound up at third, leaving runners on the corners with two down for Anthony Rendon. Rendon flew to right to set Washington down.
Third error for Utley in four innings.
Kurt Suzuki led off the fifth and hit a ball hard to third. Michael Young made a nice play to field, but his throw to first was in the dirt and unhandled by Ruf for another error (this one charged to Young). Suzuki wound up on second with nobody out. The pitcher Jordan Zimmermann was next and bunted a ball softly out in front of the plate. Ruiz got on it quick and threw to third where Suzuki was tagged out for the first out. Span grounded into a double-play to end the inning.
Suzuki really ripped the ball towards third and Young made a very nice play to handle it. Ruf should have scooped his throw at third and Young looked a little displeased that he didn't. Second time in two innings that a Phillie infielder gets an error on a ball not scooped by Ruf. The other was Utley's throw in the fourth. Ruf didn't have much of a chance to handle Utley's throw, which was thrown hard and off-target at close range, but he could have caught Young's.
Second time in the game that Ruiz makes a big defensive play after a defensive miscue that benefits the Nats. Makes a nice play to throw Suzuki out at third in the fifth after starting a double-play in the fourth following Zimmermann's reaching on a strikeout.
Kendrick works around the fourth Phillie error in five innings.
The Phils led 1-0 when he started the sixth. Harper tripled off the wall in right with one out. Ryan Zimmerman was next. Kendrick got ahead of him in the count, but Zimmerman lined an 0-2 pitch to right. Delmon Young took it moving in and threw home as Harper tagged, but his throw was awful, clearing Ruiz and the plate. Harper scored and the game was tied at 1-1. Werth was next and hit a ball back up the middle, off Kendrick's leg, high into the air, but right to Rollins. Rollins threw to first in time to get Werth and end the frame.
Really bad throw by Young on a day when the Phillie defense was terrible.
Nice play by Rollins to end the inning.
Rendon reached on an infield single with one out in the seventh. Suzuki lined to Utley for the second out before Rendon took second on a wild pitch. Jordan Zimmermann grounded to Utley to leave Rendon stranded.
Bastardo set Span, Desmond and Harper down in order on two ground outs and a strikeout in the eighth with the Phils up 2-1.
Great outing for Bastardo. Just the second on his last eight appearances in which he did not allow a hit or a walk. He's walked 17 in 32 1/3 innings for the season.
Papelbon pitched the ninth with a 3-1 lead and retired Washington in order. Zimmerman went down on a ball handled by the pitcher, Werth struck out looking and LaRoche grounded to first.
Papelbon also throws a 1-2-3 frame. Only outing of his last five in which he hasn't allowed a hit or a walk.
Six up, six down for the pen with two strikeouts. Papelbon threw ten pitches and Bastardo eight.
The Phillie lineup against righty Jordan Zimmermann went (1) Revere (2) Rollins (3) Utley (4) Brown (5) Michael Young (6) Delmon Young (7) Ruf (8) Ruiz. Ruf continues to play first against right-handed pitching, probably cause he's OPSing 1.200 or whatever.
Revere and Rollins both struck out as the Phils went in order in the first.
Michael Young doubled to right with one out in the second. Delmon Young was next and hit a ball hard, but Zimmerman handled it at second for the second out with Michael Young holding second. Ruf struck out swinging to leave Young stranded.
Revere singled to left with two outs in the third, but Rollins grounded to second to end the inning.
Brown singled to right with one out in the fourth. Michael Young followed and grounded to short with Brown forced at second for the second out and Young safe at first. Delmon Young grounded to second to end the inning.
Ruiz reached on an infield single on a ball deflected by the pitcher with one out in the fifth. Kendrick bunted him to second with the first out. Revere lined an 0-1 pitch into left-center for a single, scoring Ruiz to put the Phils up 1-0. Revere stole second before Rollins grounded to first to set the Phillies down.
Revere has 17 RBI for the year. Six in his first 213 plate appearances for the season and 11 over his last 117. 411/431/491 over his last 117 plate appearances.
It was 1-1 when the Phillies hit in the sixth. Brown doubled off the wall in left-center with one out and moved up to third when Michael Young flew to center for the second out. Delmon Young went down on a ground ball handled by the pitcher for the third out.
Brown hit the ball really well the opposite way, just missing a home run.
Ruf doubled down the third base line to start the seventh and McDonald ran for him at second. Ruiz bunted McDonald to third with the first out. Frandsen hit for Kendrick and lined a ball to right center, which went off the glove of Span and fell for a double. McDonald scored to make it 2-1 with one out and Frandsen on second. Lefty Ian Krol took over for Zimmermann and got Revere on a ground ball to the pitcher for a second out, moving Frandsen up to third. Rollins grounded to third to end the inning.
Utley doubled to center off of Krol to start the eighth. Brown was next and flew to right for the first out, deep enough for Utley to tag and take third. Righty Drew Storen came in to pitch to Michael Young and the Nats brought their infield in. Young hit a ball to second. Rendon fielded and Utley stormed home. Rendon's throw came to the plate, but on the first base side. Utley slid in safe and the Phils led 3-1 with Young on first and one out. Mayberry struck out for the second out and McDonald grounded to short to end the inning.
Mayberry is just 1-for-7 in July. 3-for-his-last-20.
Revere was 2-for-4 with a stolen base and an RBI. 8-for-17 with a double in the four-game series. 304/338/353 for the year. Hasn't walked in 43 plate appearances in July, but is hitting .395 for the month. Again, .411 over his last 117 plate appearances.
Rollins was 0-for-4 with a strikeout and left three men on base. Made a nifty play on the ball off of Kendrick's foot to end the sixth and take a hit away from Werth. 3-for-16 in the set. 260/317/350 for the year. 13-for-his-last-51 (.255) with no walks and one extra-base hit, a double. Two extra-base hits, both doubles, in his last 153 PA.
Utley 1-for-4 with a double and a strikeout. 3-for-16 with two doubles in the series. 275/336/500 on the year. Made three errors in the game, two on one play where he bobbled the grounder and then picked it up and threw it away and another when Ruf was about to catch a foul ball and Utley ran over him. Seems possible the Phillies don't have a lot of confidence in Ruf defensively.
Brown 2-for-4 with a double. 4-for-15 with a walk and a double in the series. 297/330/602 over his last 297 plate appearances with 21 home runs. 281/325/550 for the year. Started the year hitting lefties really well and struggling against righties. He's now at 286/337/573 against righties and 266/293/489 against lefties.
Michael Young 1-for-2 with a double and an RBI. Charged with an error on a throw that looked like it could have been handled at first. 288/345/417 for the year. 5-for-13 with two walks and three doubles in the series. 322/338/507 over his last 151 plate appearances. Isolated power of .081 over his first 197 PA for the year and .185 over his last 151. Oddly hitting just .222 against lefties, but with walks in 13.8% of his PA against them. 311/350/424 against righties after being terrible against them in 2012.
Delmon Young 0-for-3 and left three men on base. Made a memorable throw home on the only Washington run of the game. 2-for-12 with two walks in the set. 268/323/419 on the season. 295/340/459 over his last 156 PA.
Ruf 1-for-3 with a double and struck out twice. Didn't handle Utley's throw or Young's throw, although handling Utley's throw would have taken a miraculous effort. 4-for-12 with two walks, a double and a home run in the series. 6-for-16 on the year with three walks, three extra-base hits and a 375/474/688 line. Eight strikeouts in 15 appearances against right-handed pitching. He's 4-for-13 against right-handed pitching for the year. That's nine outs, which means he's only had one out against a righty that wasn't a strikeout. That out came in game three of the series with the Nationals with Rafael Soriano pitching for Washington in the bottom of the ninth. Ruf crushed the ball to center, but Span caught it crashing into the wall to take extra-bases away from him.
Ruiz 1-for-2. Another strikeout on a wild pitch for the Nats. Twice in the game Ruiz made a nice defensive play coming off a Phillie miscue. 3-for-13 with three singles in the series. 271/323/297 for the year. Three extra-base hits, all doubles, in 132 PA for the season. 238/278/262 against right-handed pitching.
Pettibone (5-3, 3.84) faces lefty John Danks (2-6, 4.31) tonight as the Phils play the White Sox in Philadelphia. The Phillies have still won twice as many games in starts made by Pettibone this year than they have in starts made by Hamels. 10-5 when Pettibone starts and 5-14 when Hamels starts. Pettibone has a 2.35 ERA and a 1.00 ratio in his last four starts. Lefties are still hitting 311/384/457 against him for the season. Danks missed April and most of May coming off of shoulder surgery. He's made nine starts on the season and gone at least seven innings each of his last three outings, throwing to a 2.53 ERA in those starts. His walk rate is way down this year compared to his career numbers. He's walked just seven in 56 1/3 innings overall and three of the 159 right-handed hitters he's faced.

OBJECTIVE: The authors' objective was to provide phenomenologic, family
history, and treatment response data on a group of rigorously diagnosed
patients with kleptomania. METHOD: Twenty consecutive inpatients and
outpatients met DSM-III-R criteria for current kleptomania or a past
history of kleptomania. These patients were given structured diagnostic
interviews, and their family histories of psychiatric disorders were
assessed blindly. The patients' responses to psychosocial and biological
treatments were also assessed. RESULTS: All of the kleptomanic patients had
lifetime diagnoses of major mood disorders, 16 had lifetime diagnoses of
anxiety disorders, and 12 had lifetime diagnoses of eating disorders. A
high morbid risk of major mood disorders (0.31) was found in their
first-degree relatives. Ten of 18 patients receiving thymoleptic
medications reported reduction or remission of their stealing behavior.
CONCLUSIONS: Kleptomania may be related to major mood disorder and perhaps
may represent another form of "affective spectrum disorder."

Gorgeous in Person This dress is the most amazing dress I've seen. When I tried it on it fit PERFECTLY they kept saying this dress was made for me. I'm LDS too so I won't need any adjustments to make it temple ready. The dress in gorgeous in person. If I had seen the dress online first I probably wouldn't have looked at it twice but it is an amazing dress. I can't wait to get married in it. July 7, 2013
Beautiful I just bought this dress, though the online pictures don't do it justice. I went to my local store found it there first. I love my dress. The only down side is that we have to alter it and add a corseted back so it will fit. They no longer make this dress in the bigger sizes even though they use to. March 8, 2013
My dream dress The online picture makes this dress look horrible. I just bought this dress and I absolutely love it! I saw this online months ago and did't even realize it was my dress until after I had bought it. This picture doesn't do it justice...go to the store and try it on. I said I would never buy a cap sleeved dress like this, but of all the dresses I tried on everyone in the shop said this was the one. It is so gorgeous when you actually try it on. There is so much detail and it makes me feel like a princess! I love it and I cannot wait to wear it. January 6, 2012
Heavenly Modest Well I'm a Latter-Day Saint bride and this is so perfect for me. August 24, 2010

The District 98 House race may look like a David vs. Goliath fight. A Republican candidate with no major endorsements is running in a mostly Democratic district against a Democrat with 13 times the campaign war chest.
But Republican Cara Pavalock said she isn't ready to throw in the towel, while Democrat Katie Edwards said she isn't taking anything for granted.

City officials say it will still be several more weeks before arena event goers can trek across the new pedestrian bridge.
The pedestrian bridge linking the Pinnacle Bank Arena with the festival parking lot (north of the arena) is expected to open for events come November 1st.
Construction on the $7.9 million bridge was delayed when a bridge girder slipped on April 19th.
Investigators say the girder failure was due to a problem with the concrete blocks between the girders, known as diaphragms.
Since the incident, the bridge underwent a series of very complex tests and analysis.
Chris Connolly with the City Attorney's Office says, "There were a lot of very talented people who were working on this. We as a staff are very satisfied and very comfortable that this bridge is in fact safe and compliant and were going to get a very successful completion of the bridge."
While the bridge will be open for events.
It will be temporarily barricaded off on nonevent days.
The bridge will still technically be under construction for finishing touches, like the LINCOLN lettering that will label the side.
A total completion date is weather dependant, it could be as late as spring.
There's a Husker women's (exhibition) basketball game on November 3rd.
That's the first time the walking bridge will officially be put to use.

Just about everyone is pitching well for the Phillies these days, so it was going to be a big surprise if Halladay came out yesterday afternoon and laid an egg. He didn't. Halladay was fantastic again, holding the Cardinals to two runs over seven innings. After seven starts Halladay has a 6-1 record, a 1.45 ERA and an 0.95 ratio.
In other encouraging news for the pitching staff, Danys Baez has now given the Phillies three perfect innings in relief his last three times out coming off an ugly start to the season.
The Phillies are 17-11 after beating the St Louis Cardinals 7-2 yesterday afternoon. The Phils took three of four in the set. The Phillies have won five of six and three in a row. They've allowed three runs in their last three games. In four of their last six they have allowed two runs or less. They have extended their lead in the NL East to two games with the Mets and Nationals tied for second place.
Halladay got the start for the Phillies and went seven innings, allowing two runs on seven hits and three walks. Only one of the runs was earned and all seven hits were singles. He struck out nine.
He gave up back-to-back singles to Skip Schumaker and Nick Stavinoha to start the first. It put men on first and second with nobody out for Albert Pujols. Halladay got Pujols to hit into a double-play to end the frame.
Big at-bat early in the game.
With the Phillies up 3-0, David Freese started the second with a fly ball to right that went off Werth's glove after he lost it in the sun for a three-base error. Colby Rasmus popped to Utley for the first out. Jason LaRue was next and he hit a ball to Valdez at short. Valdez fielded and then threw it away for a two-base error. Freese scored to make it 3-1 with one out and a man on second. The pitcher Kyle Lohse lined to right for the second out and Tyler Greene grounded to short to end the frame.
Two errors in the inning for the Phils. The ball that Werth did not catch was originally ruled a hit. The scoring was changed after the game was over. They got it right. This says that Werth called the press box to say the ball had hit his glove and it should have been called an error.
The Phils were up 5-1 when Halladay set St Louis down in order in the third.
Holliday started the fourth with a single into center. Halladay struck out Freese and Rasmus behind him and got LaRue to ground to third.
Greene singled to right with one out in the fifth and Schumaker followed with a walk. Halladay stuck out Stavinoha before a wild pitch moved the runners to second and third. Pujols drew a walk to load the bases, but Halladay struck Holliday out swinging 3-2 to leave the runners stranded.
The Phillies led 6-1 when Halladay started the sixth. Freese led off with a walk, but Halladay struck Rasmus out and got LaRue to hit into a double-play.
Lefty Jon Jay hit for pitcher Trever Miller and singled to start the seventh. Greene struck out before Schumaker moved Jay to third with a single. Halladay struck out Stavinoha for the second out, but Pujols singled to left and Jay scored to cut the lead to 6-2. With men on first and second, Halladay got Holliday to ground to Utley to leave both men stranded.
Durbin started the eighth with the Phils up 7-2. With one out he grazed Rasmus with a pitch. LaRue was next and Durbin drilled him, putting men on first and second with one down. Jay was next and he hit a ball to first base. Howard fielded and threw to Valdez at second for the first out. Durbin took the throw from Valdez to complete the double-play.
Always nice to see a throw from Howard that doesn't wind up in left field.
Baez threw a 1-2-3 ninth with a five-run lead. He was throwing on back-to-back days for just the second time on the season after a scoreless frame in game three. He hasn't allowed a hit or a walk in three appearances in May.
The Phillies lineup against righty Kyle Lohse went (1) Victorino (2) Polanco (3) Utley (4) Howard (5) Werth (6) Ibanez (7) Ruiz (8) Valdez. Valdez plays short with Rollins on the DL and Castro sidelined with a hamstring problem. Ruiz moves from eighth in the lineup up to seventh.
With two outs in the first, Utley singled and Howard followed with a walk. Werth hit a 2-2 pitch out to right to put the Phils up 3-0. Ibanez singled and moved to third when Ruiz doubled to right, but they were both left stranded when Valdez grounded to third.
Halladay led off the second with the lead cut to 3-1 and reached on a throwing error by Greene. Victorino followed that with a double to center, putting men on second and third for Polanco. Polanco struck out for the first out. Utley flew to left with the runners holding for the second. Howard picked them up, though, delivering a single into center that scored both runners and put the Phils up 5-1. Werth lined a double to left that put men on second and third again, but Ibanez flew to right for the third out.
Big hit for Howard after Polanco and Utley both go down with men on second and third and less than two outs.
The Phils went in order in the third.
Polanco singled with one out in the fourth and was forced at second when Utley followed with a ground ball to short. Howard sent Utley to third with a single, but a Werth strikeout left both of them stranded.
Ibanez led off the fifth with a home run that put the Phillies up 6-1. Ruiz singled to left, but Valdez hit into a double-play behind him. Halladay struck out swinging.
Greene's second throwing error of the game allowed Utley to reach with two outs in the sixth. Lefty Trever Miller came into the game to pitch to Howard and Utley was caught stealing to end the inning.
Utley gets caught stealing close to never. In 2009 he stole 23 bases and was caught zero times.
It was 6-2 when the Phillies hit in the seventh. Werth doubled with one out and Ibanez was walked intentionally. Ruiz lined a single to right. Werth scored to put the Phils up 7-2 and Ibanez was thrown out at third for the second out. Valdez doubled and Ruiz went to third. With righty Jason Motte on the mound for the Cards, Dobbs hit for Halladay and grounded to second.
That was the fourth time in the game a runner from first didn't score on a double. Third time the runner from first didn't score on a double with two outs. Ibanez didn't score on Ruiz's two-out double in the first. Halladay didn't score on Victorino's double in the second with no outs. Howard didn't score on Werth's two-out double later the same inning. In the seventh, Ruiz doesn't score on the Valdez double with two down.
Utley walked with two outs in the eighth, but Howard grounded out behind him.
Victorino was 1-for-5 with a double in the game. 5-for-17 with a double and a home run in the series. He's hitting 250/278/476 for the year. He hasn't walked in the last seven games. He no longer has more home runs than Werth and Ibanez combined after both Werth and Ibanez homer in the game to pull ahead seven to six.
Polanco was 1-for-5 yesterday and 2-for-16 with a walk and a home run in the set. 274/306/425. He's walked three times this season.
Utley was 1-for-4 with a walk yesterday. 3-for-14 with a home run and three walks in the series. 288/426/587 for the year.
Howard was 2-for-4 yesterday and 3-for-15 with two walks in the series. 280/320/483.
Werth was 3-for-4 with two doubles and a home run yesterday. 6-for-15 with three doubles, two home runs in the series. 354/417/657 on the year. He's on pace to hit 87 doubles.
Castro played in the first three games of the series and went 1-for-9 to drop his line on the year to 258/271/303. Valdez was 1-for-4 with a double yesterday and is 4-for-18 on the year.
Ruiz started games one, two and four of the series. He was 3-for-4 with a double yesterday and 5-for-8 with two doubles and a home run in the series. He also walked twice. He came into the series hitting 274/423/323 and is now at 314/449/429. He's on pace to walk 104 times this year.
Schneider started game three of the set and was 0-for-3. He's 2-for-17 on the season.
Dobbs was 1-for-2 with a double in the series and is hitting .217 for the year.
Francisco's last at-bat came on April 27.

The Story of Edgar Sawtelle
by Wroblewski, David
Print this page
Email this list
1. How would Edgar's story have been different if he had been born with a voice? How would Edgar himself have been different? Since Edgar can communicate perfectly well in sign most of the time, why should having a voice make any difference at all?
2. At one point in this story, Trudy tells Edgar that what makes the Sawtelle dogs valuable is something that cannot be put into words, at least by her. By the end of the story, Edgar feels he understands what she meant, though he is equally at a loss to name this quality. What do you think Trudy meant?
3. How does Almondine's way of seeing the world differ from the human characters in this story? Does Essay's perception (which we can only infer) differ from Almondine's? Assuming that both dogs are examples of what John Sawtelle dubbed canis posterus, "the next dogs", what specifically can they do that other dogs cannot?
4. One of the abiding mysteries in Edgar's life concerns how his parents met. In fact, Edgar is an inveterate snoop about it. Yet when Trudy finally offers to tell him, he decides he'd rather not know. What does that reveal about Edgar's character or his state of mind? Do you think he might have made a different decision earlier in the story?
5. Claude is a mysterious presence in this story. What does he want and when did he start wanting it? What is his modus operandi? Would his methods work in the real world, or is such behavior merely a convenient trope of fiction? Two of the final chapters are told from Claude's point of view. Do they help explain his character or motivation?
6. Until it surfaces later in the story, some readers forget entirely about the poison that makes its appearance in the Prologue; others never lose track of it. Which kind of reader were you? What is the nature of the poison? When the man and the old herbalist argue in the Prologue, who did you think was right?
7. In the final moments of the story, Essay must make a choice. What do you think she decides, and why? Do you think all the dogs will abide by her decision?

It's 11:53 pm. where I am, I have a big presentation due in a few days that I'm barely just starting on, and there are no 24 hr places in this tiny town of 250 k people! At this point I think Benu is my favorite place on earth!
Alright, I haven't done a good rant about twilight in quite a while so this should be fun:
Before I even begin, let's establish that the sentence 'twilight is better than hp' is a non sequitur, it's like saying JayZ is better than a spark-plug: it makes no sense.
Now, let's get started on Twilight the book (the movies I don't mind so much because of the lulz, have you SEEN RPattz and Kstew trying to act?) :
I read the books because one of my friends whom I really trust with these things told me to read them because she had never laughed so hard in her life while reading anything, and that the embarrassment of being seen around town with it is worth the cheesy hilarity (it was).
Firstly, let's establish that Stephenie Meyer does NOT know how to write. I compared one of the passages from Eclipse with my 7th grade diary and they looked about the same. I'm not a snobby reader, I am an open Princess Diaries fan, I even got my books autographed, but the thing is that I read those books when I was in middle school and trying to learn English. The Twilight series makes HP look like the work of Proust in comparison! Read one paragraph from the Half-Blood Prince and one from Breaking Dawn and see how you feel, go ahead.
Second: the sad truth is that most people would be ok with overlooking her inability to write well, if she was a good story teller, but as it is everything she tries to write is too long for no reason; the stories don't make proper sense because her connections between things are shaky at best, the plot-if it ever shows up at all-is too trite and predictable, and there are so many unexplained little side stories or random facts that she could write a whole separate book explaining them.
Third: let's talk about the 'story.' So it's supposed to be about a girl who falls in love with a vampire, but he's not dracula, he's your friendly neighborhood vampire. Let's talk about that for a second, here's the thing: if you want to write fantasy books about mythical creatures and imaginary stuff, make sure to use your own damn imagination! Vampires were a creature long before she came along and bastardized the lore. You can't take someone else's imaginary character and give it new features: that's called plagiarism, and she should be sued! You can't just take a mythical creature with defined characteristics and personality traits and give it as many powers and superhero crap as you can throw at it and expect everyone to just go along with it because it's a 'made up' character. Every story, whether it's fantasy or non fiction, has its limitations; just as surely as no one can come back to life in Harry Potter, vampires don't sparkle in the sun instead of DIE, drink animal blood, fall in love with socially awkward, average looking, repressed girls with zero self-esteem, or have superhero 'powers,' just to name a few. If she had called them Shmampires and said that they were a distant cousin of the vampires, bread differently or something it wouldn't be so bad, but to fuck up hundreds of years of tradition is just inexcusable.
But fucking up the vampire part isn't the only thing wrong with this story. Putting aside the obvious supernatural flaw, AND the unbelievable way bella and edward fell in love after only looking at each other a few times, and talking maybe twice, we come to the part where stephenie meyer, single-handedly, set feminism back at least a hundred years. Bella's character is a weak, stupid, generic-at best-girl who gets bossed around by her boyfriend, her best friend, and her dad. In one scene Edward takes the engine out of her car so she can't go see her friend that he is jealous of. Even the female vampires don't get any respect: they're not as strong as the men, never really lead any attacks, and one of them can't stop thinking about wanting to have a baby. Bella's friends are even worse: all they can do is gossip and talk about clothes and boys, there isn't a single smart, strong, and independent female character in this story.
It's been two years since I've read the books so I've forgotten some things that pissed me off at the time, but the one thing that I do remember is this: How can the vampires have sex? I mean biologically speaking they would need blood in their veins to get an erection, and vampires have no bodily liquids, and speaking of bodily liquids vampires can't get anyone pregnant because THEY HAVE NO SEMEN! Who the fuck does she think she's kidding writing this bullshit??
I for one would rather have my kid play video games all day then read this junk…until she is old enough to read it ironically so that she can appreciate good writing all the more.
Recently, I've really gotten into watching Psych. I think it started when the two main characters came to UT for a sneak preview into the second half the current season of the show. I watched it before, but only when I happened to catch it on TV, but when Netflix finally put it up for instant watch last month I couldn't stop myself from watching all 4 seasons that were up, plus I finally figured out the deal with the pineapple that i was wondering about (the director or writer or whatever of the show hides a pineapple in the background of every episode, it can be pieces of one on a pizza, a paper cutout on the wall or even a smoothie) and I had to watch them all again to find all the pineapples (I couldn't). Then last night, I decided to watch the first 3 seasons of Monk that I had missed and realized that the two shows are exactly the same: a really perceptive guy who solves crimes with the help of an assistant, while being hired as consultants by a police department in California. And when you really think about it (if you've seen both shows) certain episodes have the same build-up to a story, or at least enough in common to make me think of the other one and get the bad guys confused…so why is it that like Psych more than Monk? What makes one show better than the other if they're both the same thing? Especially since Monk came first, shouldn't Psych be the Carlos Mencia of this situation?
But the answer occurred to me as I was thinking about a topic to write for this blog: When you're writing a paper it's important to keep in mind who you're writing for, I write differently when I'm writing a paper for Foley than one for my International Relations class, they're different people with different expectations. The expectations part is the most important, when Foley asked us to write as if we were writing a scholarly article I couldn't half-ass it and write each paragraph in a different style, it had to be consistent. The same is true of the shows: Psych is a comedy pure and simple, sure it has had a few serious episodes, but for the most part it has stuck to its guidelines of a comedy, whereas Monk can't make up its mind on whether it wants to be a comedy or a drama, which makes it confusing for the audience. Notice that there are not comedydrama categories at the Golden Globes. It's really hard for the audience to identify with a show when they really don't know what to expect. It's very difficult to write hour long comedy shows-even Tina Fay didn't do it-it's understandable, but you can't have it both ways if you want to be really successful at what you do, because at the end of the day your show will go into one of the two categories, and if it's really difficult to place it in a category then it's not going to be the best of its kind.
As much as I love you Isaac, I'm going to have to disagree! Halfway through the film I started to look at my watch every 10 minutes to see just how much was left!
I can understand your sense of identification with the character as a performer, the movie was very well acted and I can see dancers, actors etc. understanding the character better than others, but a movie isn't just about a character, there needs to be a compelling story, and while watching natalie portman masturbate in front of her mom is funny, it's not a story. Maybe it was my own fault for going to see an Aronofsky film having only watched Requiem for a Dram, maybe I should have watched Pi or the Fountain before getting myself into this mess, but is it too much to ask for a movie you've paid $10 for to have a basic, reasonable plot? It starts out with Nina being shy and timid and one of those perfectionist freaks, her character doesn't really develop at all though the movie even though she goes out with the new girl, gets drunk, and does speed…or some other drug I can't remember, whatever 'rolling' is, has sex with random strangers, slaps her mom around, and lets herself get touched by the director, but still until the very end she's as uptight as ever until about 10 minutes left in the film when in a 'surprise' ending she stabs someone that turns out to be herself in the very end (like I didn't see that one coming a mile away).
What I'm trying to say is that there was no redeeming quality to this film for me, which is shocking because the previews looked so good. Usually I am an excellent judge of previews, I know exactly what I want to see in theaters and very rarely do the films I choose to go and see disappoint me. So if I have to give kudos to anyone for this 'movie' it would have to be the person who edited the trailer, who I think is a master rhetorician! He/she knew exactly which parts to pick to peak everyone's interests, watching the trailer you can't stop thinking what is really going on? Why is she so intense? Why is she turning into a swan? Is it real or is it all in her head? (and if you're a guy) Natalie Portman makesout with that chick from That 70's Show?!! Making a trailer is more difficult than making a movie: you have to condense a story into a minute to 30 seconds, AND make it seem appealing even if the movie is complete crap. I hope that guy gets my 10 dollars, because he's the only one who actually earned it.
ps. just on a side note, I'm not this hypercritical of everything, in fact there are more films that I like than dislike, it's just that I tend to be more vocal when I didn't like something so it looks like I'm always complaining. it's just that if I talked about everything that I liked, then we'd be here all day!
like a few other people in the class i was a little surprised when i got my assignment back a few days ago. sure i wasn't expecting an A, but i didn't think it was THAT bad. the one comment that i got consistently through my paper though, which i suspect had a lot to do with my grade, was 'prove it' which sounds pretty reasonable but when you consider the fact that i was writing for the opinion section of a news paper, proving my point doesn't seem to be the biggest concern for an editor. here i do have to admit some fault, for some reason i managed to delete the part at the end of my essay that said where it would appear…serves me right for writing stuff so late at night that i don't know what the hell i'm doing. anyway, what i was going for was a story purely based on my own 'opinion' (i use the quotes because i don't actually believe what i was writing…but i figured for once i should try and write the opposite of what i believe) and it would be published in the editorial section of the paper, and all the papers i've written for before (not that many, and they all would have let anyone write for them, so it's not really a big deal…or even a small deal) would have accepted that format. in editorial writing, the audience is YOUR audience, they read your column every week because they've grown to trust you and your judgments, they're not reading for confusing statistics and data, they're wondering what the columnist's opinions on a controversial issue are, and that's what i tried to do-not all that well admittedly, but i'm no maureen dowd!
ps. Catherine, if you're talking about the Trubowitz paper, i did surprisingly well too, and considering the fact that i was expecting a C- at best, i was shocked!
So I have a bit of a problem with spelling, and if it wasn't for computers and the red squiggly line, I swear I don't know what I'd do! But every now and then even that squiggly line fails me because technically the word is spelled correctly, it's just not what I meant to write, which brings me to my point: the thing you didn't (or maybe did, but didn't point out) catch was that in the first paragraph of my scholarly article I'd written blah blah blah in order to assess the situation blah blah blah, only instead of assess I'd written ASSES!! woops! Can you believe this isn't the first time this has happened? You'd think by now I would have learned my lesson!
So i was reading through the HP wikipedia page to find something to talk about and i noticed a whole bunch of shit that people are saying about the book that, at least to me, seems like a stretch. For the longest time now i've been reading sparknotes and talking about literature, and discussing 'the classics' in english and lit classes and all the supposedly clever thing the authors have put in the books, but quite honestly i find more than half of that stuff bullshit, i hardly doubt that when rowlling was writing the series she had all these crazy governmental/religious theories behind every little fact of the book when she wrote it. people see the similarities in stories that they want to see, sure she purposely added the nazie allusions or the chamberlaine thing, but to assume everything people have written on wikipedia is true, and to consider the book 'controversial' because of them is presuming a little too much. Any time anything becomes as famous and widely popular as the HP series it automatically becomes controversial because every idiot sees it and they have to put their two cents and all this leads to a manufactured 'controversy.'
and i'm not saying all this as a fan of the books, this is true of a lot of crap that we read in high school too, and a lot of those books were total crap (in my opinion). so maybe people should just shut up and keep their stupid ideas to themselves every once in a while!
if you disagree with this (please do) write something back so we can have a 'dialogue' because i really don't think i have the 10 required posts!
Goebbels Goebbels Goebbels!
One of my friends just sent me this link, I think it's pretty epic…I haven't read the whole thing yet; it's really long, but worth it!
I would like to write like my newly found hero, Harrison Wagner, a Government professor here at UT. His articles are badass, and informative…if you're smart enough to understand them! (they make me feel dumb, which is good exorcise in reducing the d-bag tendencies in one's personality)
Dr. McDonald is also a good example to follow, he is less formal than Wagner, but still really smart. You just know what he is talking about. He is clear and concise.
I also wouldn't mind writing like Waltz. He may be wrong about a lot of things, but he writes convincingly, and that's really cool!
PAIS International is a good one to emulate, because they have a good variety of articles in their database, which makes them fun
So, as if I didn't learn my lesson the last time, I came back to Bennu tonight to write my International Relations Theory paper, and to study for my English quiz tomorrow.
It was of course packed as usual, but I weaseled my way in a little spot with a wobbly chair, and sat down to research and write my paper. The internet is slow at best, and keeps stopping and starting like it's 1999 and I can't even google half the things I need to, or check blackboard. But I suck it up and stay, and after a few hours I go up to order my coffee, and overpriced pizza (which ends up being 7 dollars, 8 with tip) and as I'm waiting for my caramel/white mocha latte, I notice the barista, instead of using a thermometer to measure the temperature of the steaming milk, is using his HANDS cupped outside the pitcher! He then pours the overly steamed milk in my cup, where the espresso shots have been sitting for the past at least 15 seconds and are now dead and overly bitter, without a spoon to hold the foam back! Great, I now have a piping hot, bitter, CAPPUCCINO that I can't even try to cool down by blowing on it because it's COVERED WITH FOAM. Don't get me wrong though, the people who work here are nice, but if you don't know the difference between a Latte and a Cappuccino you need to re-train!
In retrospect I should have gone to the Spiderhouse, because there at least, I could order a pitcher of Shiner so I can at least handle all the hipsters around me.
Next time, if I tell you I'm planning on coming here, SLAP ME!
Hey guys, which one are we submitting our papers under? Because I don't think i see a new one…is that just me?
I like them because of their attitude and their interesting writing style. I feel like I can read an article and feel better about myself!
This is clearly a leftist blog and has lots of scientific debate that i totally agree with, so reading it is like reading my own thoughts.
The tone of this blog is REALLY funny, and I feel that humor is always the best way to convince other people without them realizing they're being convinced of something.
I LOVE her. 'nuff said.
pictures are worth a thousand words! (but some are just bad)
I'm writing about evolution, creationism, and that religious people should just leave their pseudo science and other view points out of our children's education system.

Made from sunned Pedro Ximénez grapes, this sherry by Bodegas Gutierrez Colosia is naturally sweet and dark ruby in color with an intense finish. With aromas of caramelized raisins and molasses, this complex and very sweet Pedro Ximénez sherry is a natural dessert wine choice. It is best served cold and pairs well with pastries and chocolate.
COMPOSITION: 100% Pedro Ximénez
ABOUT THE PRODUCER: For nearly 200 years, Bodegas Gutierrez Colosia has grown grapes for sherry in the city of El Puerto de Santa Maria. Located in the province of Cadiz, El Puerto de Santa Maria's unique micro-climate is the perfect environment needed for aging sherry and developing the "flor" layer of yeast that gives sherry its unique taste and aroma.
Bodegas Gutierrez Colosia was founded in 1838 on the mouth of the Guadalete river. The climate and ocean winds here create an ideal environment for the aging of the Bodega's wines.
Traditionally they sold their sherry supply to larger sherry houses who would blend and bottle the wine. In 1997, Bodegas Gutierrez Colosia, followed the lead of other small sherry suppliers and began to bottle the wine themselves in order to preserve the uniqueness of their vineyard's micro-climate.

beth - New York, NY "this was a very, very nice sherry, similar to the Moscatel Soleado, but the tiniest bit sweeter, I thought, the slightest bit syrupy-er, and with more of a burnt sugar and fig taste than raisin (though there was some raisin too). I thought this was a bit headier than the Moscatel Soleado as well, and with a stronger aroma. I would love to pour a bit of this Colosia PX into a nice, dark cake recipe as well. I highly recommend it to sherry drinkers with a sweet tooth."

The fifth Anonymity Ball has come and gone. The night was surreal, sensual, bizarre and a place where you could meet anyone and never know who was behind their mask.
The crew worked for months fashioning ideas, costumes, set plans and larger than human, creatures of oddity. An operatic vignette was created, video, acts and performances of wandering characters to thickly intoxicate our wonderful patrons.Wanna know a bit more about the crew?
We were very please with how many people became a new character and were the characters in the setting we created.
Every year is a an amzing journey with you and we are profoundly inspired by what you do to be a part of it!
This was the concept video we released for Anonymity 5 Masquerade Ball. A notion of the tryst between our inner worries and our sensuality that both share the places of twilight in our minds.
We are organizers of events that do not happen every week or every month. We place all of our energy into a few charged events a year. Occasions that are crafted and sculpted to leave you with memories and anticipation for the next encounter with us.
Whether it is an event, crafting, moving images, audio construction, fire or other forms of performance - We fools are held by the notion that we must create. Our artwork is slavery to the landlords of ideals and inspiration. Our muses call on us to impart notions of a life less ordinary in mediums discernable to other human souls.
We call to those other wayward individuals that wish to be surrounded by passion, compulsion and excitment in the ideal that our world can and should be full of creative wonder.
It is our Privilege, our Responsibility and our Burden.

Demo Account: Although demo accounts attempt to replicate real markets, they operate in a simulated market environment. As such, there are key differences that distinguish them from real accounts; including but not limited to, the lack of dependence on real-time market liquidity and the availability of some products which may not be tradable on live accounts. The operational capabilities when executing orders in a demo environment may result in atypically, expedited transactions; lack of rejected orders; and/or the absence of slippage. There may be instances where margin requirements differ from those of live accounts as updates to demo accounts may not always coincide with those of real accounts.
