JFK - FCO - Venice. Claim baggage in Rome?Jul 21, 20143Flying American to Rome, connecting to Alitalia to Venice. Do I have to claim my bags and go through customs in Rome and then re-check? Or do the bags go through to Venice? We have 2.5 hrs in Rome.armMon, Jul 21If your bags are only tagged through to Rome due to purchasing separate tickets, obviously you would have to claim them in Rome.ZAPMon, Jul 21I did not purchase the tickets separately, I purchased a flight to venice through American airlines. Obviously I know that if my bags are tagged to Rome then I would claim them in Rome. That is not the least bit helpful as an answer. What I need to know is WHETHER my bags will be tagged to Rome or Venice.ARMMon, Jul 21In that case your bags should be tagged through to Venice and you will collect them when you get to Venice (in Europe you do not have to collect checked bags when entering a country if just connecting). You will just go through Passport Control as you travel from Terminal 3 to Terminal 1.ZAPMon, Jul 21

If you bought both legs of the journey on one ticket, or your India-departing airline will make baggage transfer to your Alialia flight (check first) - all you need to do after immigration procedure is to watch signs to 'Boarding Area' (T1 has Boarding Area B: gates B1-B30 (B14-B23 on ground level, & B27-B30 (by escalator); and B1-B13 on first level). All boarding areas are connected. NOTE: If your first airline does not transfer bags to your second one, you need to claim your bags & re-check them in with Alitalia at T1.sajul14Sat, Jul 12

From there, passengers go through immigration (passport control) and - if transferring to another flight - proceed to their connecting terminal & gate - in your case Terminal 1, Boarding Area B. A shuttle bus connects the two terminals.sujun14Sun, Jun 22Actually you can easily walk to T1 after clearing Schengen immigration in T3.ZAPSun, Jun 22That is below the minimum connection time for an International->domestic connection at ORD. You will arrive in Terminal 5, go through US Immigration, claim your baggage, go through US customs, then re-check your bags with United, then you have to take the ATS train from T5 to T2 and go through security and to your departure gate. It's possible to make the connection in 80 minutes, but there is almost no wiggle room for delays, thus why it's below the MCT.ZAPWed, May 28What is the minimum connection time in my condition?

Chavez suffers new complications in cancer fightBy IAN JAMES
The Associated Press | January 01,2013AP Photo
Venezuelas President Hugo Chavez is confronting new complications due to a respiratory infection nearly three weeks after undergoing cancer surgery.CARACAS, Venezuela President Hugo Chavezs new complications after cancer surgery prompted his closest allies to call for Venezuelans to pray for him on Monday, presenting an increasingly bleak outlook and prompting growing speculation about whether the ailing leader has much longer to live.
Vice President Nicolas Maduro looked weary and spoke with a solemn expression as he announced in a televised address from Havana on Sunday that Chavez now confronts new complications due to a respiratory infection nearly three weeks after his operation. He described Chavezs condition as delicate.
The streets of Caracas were abuzz on Monday with talk of Chavezs increasingly tough fight, while the news topped the front pages of the countrys newspapers.
Hes history now, said Cesar Amaro, a street vendor selling newspapers and snacks at a kiosk in downtown Caracas. He motioned to a newspaper showing side-by-side photos of Maduro and National Assembly President Diosdado Cabello, and said politics will now turn to them.
Amaro said he expects a new election soon to replace Chavez. For an illness like the one the president has, his days are numbered now, he said matter-of-factly.
A government-organized New Years Eve concert had been planned in a downtown Caracas plaza featuring popular Venezuelan bands, but was canceled due to Chavezs condition.
The presidents aides sang and prayed at a televised Mass held at the presidential palace, while Chavezs allies urged Venezuelans to keep their president in their prayers.
Political analyst Ricardo Sucre said the outlook for Chavez appears grim, saying Maduros body language during his televised appearance spoke volumes.
Everything suggests Chavezs health situation hasnt evolved as hoped, Sucre said. He said Maduro likely remained in Havana to keep close watch on how Chavezs condition develops.
These hours should be key to having a more definitive prognosis of Chavezs health, and as a consequence make the corresponding political decisions according to the constitution, Sucre said.
Sucre and other Venezuelans said it seems increasingly unlikely that Chavez would be able to be sworn in as scheduled on Jan. 10.
The Venezuelan leader has not been seen or heard from since undergoing his fourth cancer-related surgery Dec. 11, and government officials have said he might not return in time for his inauguration for a new six-year term.
If Chavez dies or is unable to continue in office, the Venezuelan Constitution says that a new election should be held within 30 days.
Before his operation, Chavez acknowledged he faced risks and designated Maduro as his successor, telling supporters they should vote for the vice president if a new presidential election were necessary.
Chavez said at the time that his cancer had come back despite previous surgeries, chemotherapy and radiation treatment. He has been fighting an undisclosed type of pelvic cancer since June 2011.
Maduro said on Sunday that he had met with Chavez. We greeted each other and he himself referred to these complications, Maduro said, reading from a prepared statement.
The president gave us precise instructions so that, after finishing the visit, we would tell the (Venezuelan) people about his current health condition, Maduro said. President Chavezs state of health continues to be delicate, with complications that are being attended to, in a process not without risks.
Maduro was seated alongside Chavezs eldest daughter, Rosa, and son-in-law Jorge Arreaza, as well as Attorney General Cilia Flores. He held up a copy of a newspaper confirming that his message was recorded on Sunday.
Thanks to his physical and spiritual strength, Comandante Chavez is facing this difficult situation, Maduro said.
Maduro said he had met various times with Chavezs medical team and relatives. He said he would remain in Havana for the coming hours but didnt specify how long.
Maduro, who arrived in Havana on Saturday for the sudden and unexpected trip, is the highest-ranking Venezuelan official to see Chavez since the surgery in Cuba, where the presidents mentor Fidel Castro has reportedly made regular visits to check on him.
Before flying to Cuba, Maduro said that Energy Minister Hector Navarro would be in charge of government affairs in the meantime.
The situation does not look good. The fact that Maduro himself would go to Cuba, leaving Hector Navarro in charge only seems understandable if Chavezs health is precarious, said David Smilde, a University of Georgia sociologist and analyst for the Washington Office on Latin America think tank.
Smilde said that Maduro probably made the trip to be able to talk to Chavez himself and perhaps to talk to the Castros and other Cuban advisers about how to navigate the possibility of Chavez not being able to be sworn in on Jan. 10.
Mentioning twice in his nationally televised speech that Chavez has suffered new complications only reinforces the appearance that the situation is serious, Smilde said.
Medical experts say that its common for patients who have undergone major surgeries to suffer respiratory infections and that how a patient fares can vary widely from a quick recovery in a couple of days to a fight for life on a respirator.
Maduros latest update differed markedly from a week ago, when he had said he received a phone call from the president and that Chavez was up and walking.
The vice president spoke on Sunday below a picture of 19th century independence hero Simon Bolivar, the inspiration of Chavezs leftist Bolivarian Revolution movement.
Maduro said that Chavez had sent year-end greetings to his homeland and a warm hug to the boys and girls of Venezuela.
The vice president expressed faith that Chavez would successfully fight this new battle. He concluded his message saying: Long live Chavez.
On the streets of Caracas, images of Chavez smiling and saluting are emblazoned on campaign signs and murals. One newly painted mural reads: Be strong, Chavez.
State television played video of Chavez campaigning for re-election, including a speech when he shouted: I am a nation!
A new government sign atop a high-rise apartment complex reads: YOU ALSO ARE CHAVEZ.
Chavez has been in office since 1999 and was re-elected in October, three months after he had announced that his latest tests showed he was cancer-free.
Opposition politicians have criticized a lack of detailed information about Chavezs condition, and last week repeated their demands for a full medical report.
Information Minister Ernesto Villegas defended the governments handling of the situation, saying during a televised panel discussion on Sunday night that Chavez has told the truth in his worst moments throughout his presidency.
He also referred to a new surge of rumors about Chavezs condition and called for respect for the president and his family.
Chavezs daughter Maria, who has been with the president since his surgery, said in a message on her Twitter account: Thank you people of Venezuela. Thank you people of the world. You and your love have always been our greatest strength! God is with us! We love you!
Allies of the president also responded on Twitter, repeating the phrase: Chavez lives and will triumph.MORE IN Wire NewsA new study released Monday found that warming temperatures in Pacific Ocean waters off the coast...

Why Fashion Television never went out of style
The news of Fashion Television's cancellation was first tweeted Wednesday afternoon by its iconic host, Jeanne Beker. "So surreal. This dream is over: After 27 glorious years, FT production ceased today." A statement from the show's parent company, CTV Bellmedia, soon followed. For the rest of the day it made headline news crawls in office building elevators nationwide.
Why was this lifestyle news trending on Twitter across Canada ahead of Charles Manson's parole denial? Because when it launched in 1985, Fashion Television was a series ahead of its time that shaped a couple of generations of fashion cognoscenti and civilians alike, and made a name for itself well beyond our borders.

New York • Times Square was awash in hopeful sentiments as it began to welcome hordes of New Year's Eve revelers looking to cast off a rough year and cheer their way to something better in 2012.
For all of the holiday's bittersweet potential, New York City always treats it like a big party — albeit one that, for a decade now, has taken place under the watchful eye of a massive security force.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
Pessimism has no place on Broadway. Not on New Year's Eve, anyway. The masses of tourists streaming through the square for a glimpse of the crystal-paneled ball that drops at midnight were there to kiss, pose for silly snapshots and gawk at the stages being prepared for performers like Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber.
Some revelers, wearing party hats and "2012" glasses, began camping out Saturday morning, even as workers readied bags stuffed with hundreds of balloons and technicians put colored filters on klieg lights.
"Everybody's suffering. That's why it's so beautiful to be here celebrating something with everybody," said Lisa Nicol, 47, of Melbourne, Australia, after securing a prime spot next to the main stage.
Houston tourist Megan Martin, 22, staked out her space with her boyfriend at 10:30 a.m. She said the party ahead would be worth sitting on cold asphalt all day in a spectator pen ringed by metal barricades.
"I told him the pain only lasts tonight, but the memories last forever," she said.
Many Americans will usher in the new year thinking that 2011 is a year they would rather forget. But as the country prepared for the celebration, glum wasn't on the agenda for many, even those that had a sour year.
"We're hoping the next year will be better," said Becky Martin, a former elementary school teacher who drove from Rockford, Ill., with her family to attend the Times Square celebration after spending a fruitless year trying to find a job. "We're starting off optimistic and hoping it lasts."
Reminders of a trying 2011 around the globe could be seen in the multi-national faces of visitors to the so-called "Crossroads of the World" this week.
Asked how his 2011 went, a Japanese tourist who gave his name as Nari didn't know enough English to put it into words as he visited the square Friday, so he whipped open his phone and displayed pictures he had taken of damage wrought by the earthquake and tsunami that ravaged the island nation and his home city of Sendai.
"Not a good year," he said. Then he smiled and added that things are now much better.
The annual dropping of the New Year's Eve ball, from a flagpole 400 above the street, is taking place this year under relatively warm weather, with the temperature at midnight expected to be in the low 40s. The sphere, now decorated with 3,000 Waterford crystal triangles, has been dropping to mark the new year since 1907, long before television made it a national tradition.
Security checkpoints at the city's bridges and tunnels were beefed up in anticipation of the celebration. The New York Police Department's plans for protecting the city from any terrorist attack included sending 1,500 rookie officers to Times Square, where hundreds of thousands of revelers pack into closely watched pens, ringed by barricades, stretched over 17 blocks. Officers will blend into the crowd wearing street clothes. Others, some heavily armed, others wearing radiation detectors, will watch from rooftops and helicopters.
Cautious hope was the watchword elsewhere, too.
In New Orleans, crowds in the French Quarter were starting to build Friday, with New Year's visitors rubbing elbows with college football fans flocking here for Tuesday's Sugar Bowl matchup between Michigan and Virginia Tech.
"People are tired of being stressed and poor," said David Kittrell, a glass gallery owner from Dallas visiting the Crescent City for its New Year's celebrations with his wife, Barbara. The couple has endured a rough few years, as the recession cut into their sales. But they said business had been getting better.
Atlanta was expecting to welcome thousands to its downtown, where a giant peach is dropped every New Year's Eve at midnight. Fans decked out in the orange and navy blue of both the Auburn Tigers and the Virginia Cavaliers lined the streets Saturday afternoon for the Chick-fil-A Bowl parade, cheering on marching bands, floats and a pack of Star Wars stormtroopers.
Debbie Hart, 50, of Perry, Ga., was in town with her family for the bowl game. She called herself the "perpetual optimist" who believes each year will be better than the one before.
"I married a farmer. 'Wait until next year. Next year will be better.' That's what I've been hearing for 30 years," said Hart, an Auburn fan wearing a bright orange jacket and tiger-print scarf. "I have faith."
Cities prepared for celebrations both traditional and unusual.Next Page >

Galatasaray fans momentarily stop Arsenal from scoring goals by throwing flares on the pitchBrooks Peck at Dirty Tackle1 hr ago
Arsenal's Danny Welbeck took advantage of Galatasaray's shambolic defending in the first half of their Champions League match by scoring twice in the first half hour of play. Galatasaray supporters at the Emirates responded by throwing flares on the pitch, which proved to be better at defending than any of their players.
Here is a closer look as the Arsenal vs Galatasaray game was held up after flares were thrown on to the pitch. #UCL pic.twitter.com/ltmT6K7yak
The match was briefly halted while the flares in front of the away end were cleaned up and not long after they were, Arsenal went right back to scoring with Alexis Sanchez adding a third goal before halftime. Welbeck then completed his hat trick shortly after the break to put the score at 4-0 and make it clear that four well placed flares would've been better at defending than Galatasaray's actual defenders. Galatasaray got one back from the penalty spot after Arsenal keeper Wojciech Szczesny was sent off at the hour mark.
A punishment from UEFA for the impromptu flare show is likely on its way.

Ronaldinho signs pitch invader's shirt during match, later scores with well placed free kickBrooks Peck at Dirty Tackle17 hrs ago
Ronaldinho has now played four matches for Mexican club Queretaro and the excitement over his presence is holding strong. So strong that some people can't even wait until the end of a match to ask for his autograph.
In the 51st minute of Queretaro's match against Atlas, a pitch invader in a Brazil shirt interrupted play when he sprinted up to Ronaldinho and handed him a pen. Ronaldinho, being the obliging fellow that he is, signed the man's shirt and sent him on his way, with a member of staff escorting him away. The match was then able to carry on, thankfully without everyone else in the stadium attempting to get Ronaldinho autographs of their own.
With Atlas up 2-0 in the final seconds of injury time, Ronaldinho denied the opposing keeper's clean sheet by converting a free kick from a position that would've been a gimme for him if this were some sort of weird golf football hybrid game.
The Brazilian now has two goals and an assist in his four matches with his new club.

Mats Hummels on big money transfer rumors: 'Dortmund pay me enough'Brooks Peck at Dirty Tackle18 hrs ago
Borussia Dortmund defender Mats Hummels has confused top footballers and corporate executives everywhere by saying he makes "enough" money and ruling out a move just for the sake of a pay increase. The World Cup winner has reportedly become a transfer target for Manchester United, who have been shelling out big money in the transfer market this year in an attempt to quickly climb back to the top of the Premier League. But Hummels' latest comments would suggest that he won't be tempted with cash alone.
From the Telegraph:
After so many top players have left Dortmund for bigger clubs (namely Bayern Munich, where Hummels began his career) in recent years, Jurgen Klopp will likely interpret this as a cruel ruse intended to drive up Hummels' price in January. That or he will hug the defender forever and repeatedly thank him as he weeps tears of joy.

David Beckham, Jay-Z and Beyonce have a splendid time together at the PSG-Barcelona match
Everyone who doesn't wear cargo shorts and Crocs on a daily basis is currently in Paris for Fashion Week. And since they can only look at so many models dressed in things that aren't actually clothing, David Beckham, Jay-Z and Beyonce decided to attend PSG's Champions League match against Barcelona together.
Beckham, who finished his career with PSG in 2013, served as the couple's host as they watched PSG mount a 3-2 victory in the company of former Italy captain Fabio Cannavaro and France manager Didier Deschamps. Jay-Z is on record as an Arsenal fan but he and Beyonce were surely just at the Parc des Princes to say that they were in the same building as true power couple Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Helena Seger.
Jay-Z: So If I invest in your MLS Miami team you'll call the club "JZ Alkmaar"? Like the Dutch club?
Beckham: Yes, I would be willing to do that.
Jay-Z: I don't know, man. That's pretty corny.
Francesco Totti becomes oldest scorer in Champions League history with goal against Man City
Francesco Totti became the Champions League's oldest scorer at 38 years and three days old with his 23rd-minute equalizer against Man City. Roma defender Maicon conceded an early penalty to gift City with a 1-0 lead in the fourth minute, but the immortal Roma captain showed his eternal brilliance with a signature chip as City's defenders turned to vapor in his midst.
With that goal, Totti overtakes Ryan Giggs' record (37 years 290 days) for being the oldest ever scorer in the Champions League. And just to prove that he can still accomplish new things 22 years into his legendary career, Totti's goal marked his first against an English club.
You're right, @MCFC. Our Capitano has never scored in England. But there's always a first time for everything... #CityvRoma

Future News: Arsenal physio admits his fear of being alone is behind club's injury problems
Arsenal physio Terry Sminter has admitted that the club's ongoing injury crisis is down to his crippling fear of being alone. Aaron Ramsey, Mikel Arteta and Jack Wilshere all suffered injuries during Arsenal's 1-1 draw against Tottenham, continuing a problem that has plagued the club for years. And now Sminter has confessed to his part in the matter.
Kaka making MLS record $7.1 million while not playing for a club that hasn't joined the league yet
The MLS Players Union has released an updated list of salaries for every player in the league and the top spot belongs to someone currently playing in Brazil.
Kaka joined incoming MLS club Orlando City from Milan at the end of June and was immediately sent out on loan to Sao Paulo, where he has two goals and one assist in 11 appearances. Though the 32-year-old Brazilian won't play for Orlando City until they join MLS in 2015, his guaranteed salary for 2014 is listed as $7,167,500 — a new MLS record.
To put that in perspective, Orlando City only have five players on the list and the combined guaranteed compensation for the four who aren't Kaka totals $251,837.50. Here's the league's top earners for 2014:
DTotD: Argentine player stands on opponent's leg, gets sent off
Sunday's Argentine Primera Division match between Belgrano and Racing Club resulted in five goals, four yellow cards and two reds — at least one of which was truly deserved.
During the match, Belgrano tested their theory that the best way to get an opponent off the ground is to anger them. Defender Pier Barrios achieved this by intentionally standing on a Racing player's leg. It worked in that the Racing player immediately got up off the ground, but it also get Barrios sent off.
Later, Belgrano keeper Juan Carlos Olave attempted a more passive-aggressive way of angering an opponent receiving treatment, but all he got was a kick to the back of the leg from the injured party.
Racing won 4-1, helped in part by Belgrano finishing the match with just nine men.
This has been the Dirty Tackle of the Day: a chronicling of unfortunate events.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic blames 'someone' (Pep Guardiola) for ruining his best chance at winning the Champions League
Zlatan Ibrahimovic's PSG will face former club Barcelona in the Champions League on Tuesday, giving him an opportunity to take yet another shot at Pep Guardiola. Ibrahimovic made it clear in his book, "I am Zlatan," that he did not get along with Guardiola during his one season at Barca. And now he's blaming "someone" for the team's 2009/10 Champions League failure. Of course, when Zlatan refers to "someone" it is always Pep Guardiola.
From the Guardian:
"It's nothing to complain about today, except for when I brought it up just now."
Though Guardiola won the Champions League twice with Barcelona in 2009 and 2011, Zlatan has famously never won it. He didn't explain what bad decisions he was referring to, but in both legs of Barcelona's doomed semifinal against Jose Mourinho's Inter that year, Zlatan was removed just after the hour mark. This, of course, is always a bad decision in Zlatan's mind.
Jose Mourino attempts premature handshake with Paul Lambert and Roy Keane, gets snubbed
Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has made a habit of going back to the dressing room before the halftime and full time whistles sound, which means that if he's going to shake hands with opposing coaches, he tries to do it while the match is still going on. Aston Villa manager Paul Lambert did not appreciate this on Saturday as his side was losing 3-0 to Chelsea.
When Mourinho gave Lambert a pat on the shoulder and extended his hand for a shake, the Villa manager instinctively went for it before retracting and pointing to his watch. He then went back to watching his team lose by three goals.
Mourinho took it in stride though, instead giving both Lambert and his assistant, Roy Keane, who was too busy having the scariest beard on the planet to move, a gentle pat before going on his way.

Iconic Installation
Date: July 8, 2009
by: Michael Eng | Executive Editor
SARASOTA COUNTY — It's an incredible sight, for sure.
At the center of St. Barbara Greek Orthodox Church's sanctuary stands a massive structure of metal and plywood — custom scaffolding that stretches 65 feet to the church's dome. The monstrosity has been surgically erected around the pews; its feet placed between rows and in aisles.
"I joked that its like I'm at the Manatee County Jail with all these bars," said the Very Rev. Archimandrite Frank Kirlangitis of preaching last Sunday.
But the temporary inconvenience promises to yield one of the most beautiful sights the St. Barbara congregation has ever seen.
For the next two weeks, New York-based Byzantine iconographer George Filippakis is installing a massive iconography project in the St. Barbara dome. Called the Pantocrator, the piece depicts the omnipotent Christ in the top part of the dome with four cherubim angels surrounding him. The artwork also will feature eight prophets and the four evangelists. The portion of the artwork featuring Christ is 16 feet in diameter alone.
"It's amazing to see how large this really is," Kirlangitis said as he watched Filippakis and his assistants working.
The installation of the dome project is the culmination of three-and-one-half years of planning and preparation. The church replaced all the dome windows and repaired a leak before work could begin.
Before he started the piece, Filippakis took precise measurements not only of the dome's size but also its curvature. Because the dome walls are round, the painting must account for those curves so that it will appear correctly once installed.
Filippakis then painted the piece on several different panels of a special canvas at his New York studio. When complete, he packed each panel in huge PVC tubes that accompanied him on the plane to Florida.
On Monday, Filippakis and his assistants began the installation by cutting out each portion of the piece. Then, Filippakis will take each piece and fit it into place like a puzzle, securing the artwork to the dome with special glue. He'll also put finishing touches — including the gold leaf surrounding Christ — while on-site.
Although it is called iconography, the piece isn't meant to be worshipped, Kirlangitis said. Rather, the piece will serve to enhance the beauty of the church, to instruct its congregation and remind them of their faith. The images help uplift the congregation and create a setting in which worship can take place.
"We have reverence for the icon, but we worship only God," Kirlangitis said.
Contact Michael Eng at firstname.lastname@example.com.
George Filippakis is one of the most well known Byzantine iconographers in the world. His work appears in about 90 churches throughout the United States, Canada, Australia and Europe.
Born in Greece, Filippakis began his apprenticeship at age 11 under master iconographer Stylianos Kartakis at the Cathedral of St. Minas in Iraklion, Crete.
"It was a large church — three times bigger than this," Filippakis said as he stood in St. Barbara. "I just wanted to learn. I was young, but I said, 'Please teach me.'"
Later, Filippakis attended the School of Fine Arts in Athens for four years. During that time, he got the opportunity to paint his first church alone on the island of Aegina. He was only 19 years old.
Filippakis immigrated to the United States in 1969. Now based on Long Island, N.Y., Filippakis owns a studio with an 11-foot-tall wall — large enough to create pieces such as St. Barbara's dome project.
"You have to love the work, and you have to have faith," Filippakis said. "God gave you this talent, but you have to believe it. I always pray to God for each piece to be a success."

Desktop virtualization has continued to make headlines in IT, but despite the focus on the topic, there are a number of myths that remain. The root cause is that there are actually many flavors of desktop virtualization and what's true for one type is not always true for another. Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), which hosts virtual desktops in a data center, is one of many ways to virtualize desktops, and the one that has sparked a lot of these myths, but VDI is not the only way to virtualize the desktop.
Intelligent Desktop Virtualization (IDV), a phrase coined by Intel®, describes a different approach to desktop virtualization. Where VDI centralizes both management and execution of virtual desktops, IDV maintains the benefits of centralized management while securely leveraging the computing power of end-point devices to deliver better performance, mobility and lower cost of ownership. This slideshow features the top ten myths of desktop virtualization, as identified by Sham Sao, SVP, Virtual Computer.

Stunned by the Ryan Braun suspension, the Milwaukee Brewers succumbed to the San Diego Padres Monday night at Miller Park 5-3. The Brewers managed only four hits in the loss but socred twice in the first inning of RBI hits from Jean Segura and Jonathan Lucroy. San Diego answered with a run in the second, ending Milwaukee's club record string of 36 consecutive scoreless frames. Another Segura ground out RBI made it 3-1 after five. In the 6th, starter Tom Gorzelany gave up a pair of two run doubles to Carlos Quenton and Jesus Guzman. San Diego held on from there.

Many of you may already be setting up Christmas decorations, both inside and outside your home.
But a valley homeowner is learning a valuable lesson -- that some of those decorations can be a target for crooks.
And the grinch was caught on surveillance camera video.
The suspect walked up, came to the front door, took the wreath off the door -- but little did the suspect know there was a camera right there and he was being watched.
"The grinch is making his way around."
But thanks to the quick actions of BJ Patel, that grinch was stopped in his tracks.
"I was just getting ready for bed.. all of a sudden, I hear the screen door rattling and the bells jingling from the wreath holder."
He looked at his closed circuit TV -- just in time to see someone walking away from his house with his Christmas wreath.
"I opened the door and I say, 'you better put that wreath down' and he starts running."
Patel took off running right behind him.
"You would think he would have just thrown it down and been like and say, you know I did something wrong, but no, he was running for his life with that wreath."
The suspect jumped into a waiting car. Patel took off behind them in his own car, giving police their exact direction of travel.
Patel snapped pictures as police apprehended the suspect and a female driver not too far away.
"He wasn't out for all my valuables, he was just out for the wreath."
Does Patel go all out for Christmas? Does this make him nervous to put more decorations out?
"No, no absolutely not. That's why there's surveillance and good neighbors because we all value our neighborhood and we care for it and we'll do anything it takes to protect our neighborhood and private property."
Two suspects, a male and female, were detained, cited and released.
Police are asking the public to think twice before rushing after a suspect like in this case.

Did you catch Joan Walsh on Hardball last night? More to the point, did you catch GOP Rep. Dick Armey on Hardball, with Joan Walsh, making a big ole ass out of himself? Clearly unable to respond to reasoned argument about Obama's stimulus package, Armey twisted, sighed and snorted while Walsh spoke and eventually retorted:
"I am so damn glad that you could never be my wife, 'cause I surely wouldn't have to listen to that prattle from you every day." See video of the incident on Salon.
Say what!?
Imagine the astounding arrogance it takes to think you can win an argument by saying, in effect: "Oh yeah, well I would never marry YOU. Nyah, nyah, nyah." And imagine what kind of retro views of womanhood it requires to a) think a woman's worth is determined by whether or not you covet her as a bride; b) call a woman's sensible talking points "prattle," and c) eyeroll, smirk and disrespect a debate opponent in an undignified display on national television. I'm beginning to agree with Glen Greenwald that there is no coming to a meeting of post-partisan minds with folks like this.
As for Walsh, she says:
Like Barack Obama, I want to be magnanimous, mostly. A lot of people have asked why I wasn't meaner in my comeback to Armey. Mainly, I felt sorry for him; he'd clearly run out of arguments, and he wasn't raised to know how to argue with female opponents as well as male. The thing is, for guys of Armey's generation and backward political views, once you've rigged the world so that women and non-white people can't compete with you on equal terms, life is easy: You're always up against a bunch of white guys you've grown up with, and you know how to win. When late in life the game changes, and you find yourself having to argue with a whole new cadre of smart, opinionated women, black people, Latinos, Asians, gays, well, it's gotta suck. Read more...
Watching Armey's performance, I wished Walsh could pinch the congressman on his doughy, alabaster flank hard enough to make his eyes teary; or at least unleash a brutal verbal comeback that would have a similar effect. But I guess the Salon editor is right. Men like Armey and Rush Limbaugh are frightened dinosaurs, gnashing their worn-down teeth and roaring ineffectively as they teeter on the edge of extinction. The North Dakota congressman's remarks did more to wound him than Joan Walsh or any other woman.
So, I'll stand down and let this pass. But Joan, hit me up if you need a posse to do battle with another aged, sexist buffoon. I know some chicks who are ready to ride or die (metaphorically, of course). For reals.

Usually no one likes it to rain on their birthday, but Ferrari's Fernando Alonso – who turned 31 on Sunday – was hoping for a shower or two to improve his chances of victory in the Hungarian Grand Prix. In the end, despite weather forecasts predicting a mid-race downpour, the rain stayed away… until 6.00pm. When the teams were packing up after the race the heavens opened, bringing flash floods to the Hungaroring and leaving many of the trucks bogged down in the nearby field where they'd been parked.
If the teams ever manage to get the trucks out of the quagmire, Monday morning will see the start of another mass convoy. Red Bull, Williams, Force India, McLaren, MERCEDES AMG PETRONAS, Marussia, Caterham and a number of TV trucks will all be heading back to the UK. If all goes to plan and the roads stay clear, they should make it home by Wednesday evening. Enjoy the drive guys!
Well, that's it for the first half of the season, and what a first half we've had with an amazing seven different race winners. Now, with each of the factories scheduled to shutdown for a mandatory two-week period, it's time for the paddock to hit the beach and recuperate ahead of what promises to be a flat-out second half of the season.
Enjoy the break and Paddock Cat will see you in Spa-Francorchamps for the Belgian Grand Prix at the end of August. We can't wait!

Why should you never start smoking? Even a two year old should know that!! Ok, some kids say it relieves stress. Well you will get plenty of relaxation if you keep smoking. You'll be DEAD!!!!! It's no surprise; it's just plain stupid!! Just because an overgrown camel, a yee-ha cowboy, or family members smoke, THAT DOESN'T MEAN YOU HAVE TO!!!!! I don't know about you, but I don't think we should sell cigarettes. Sure, a lot of people will lose jobs; but they should go to college and get a good job. Maybe a professional sports star or a lawyer.
Smoking can prevent you from having a good career.
If you are already smoking, why should you stop? Listen to me or not; it's up to you. If you have asthma, like me, STOP!! I am never going to smoke because it's even worse for us asthma patients. I should know. My mom works in a hospital, and she tells me when people come in from asthma attacks and they smoked. I am glad my mom told me about this; it is a lesson I hope to keep for life.
Well, if you decide to start or keep smoking, go ahead. I don't care. It's your life on the life on the line; not mine.

Ukraine is hardly one of the places people travel to in search of exotic cars. But that doesn't mean that these rare beasts can't be found there either.
Our friends from the Eastern European nation were kind enough to send us shots of an Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione out on the road. We know that only 500 of these cars have been made and our giddy Ukranian friends were humble enough to mention that one such model in their homeland is more than just one of the 500.
This particaluar car comes with a "Qudrifoglio" emblem, which means that the car comes with special edition tunings that only 20 other 8C Competizione's can boast of. Short of saying, this particular car is a limited edition of a special edition.
These ultra-rare Alfa's come with a completely different interior furnish, wheel disks that are said to be 40% lighter than those that come in the traditional models, and, last but not least, two unmistakable quadrifoliate clover badges in the car.
I guess we're going to have to recant what we said. Super duper exotics do exist in Ukraine.

On Wednesday, Fall Out Boy frontman Patrick Stump tweeted a picture of himself sitting next to Elton John with the message " #saverockandroll #sireltonjohn" attached. The photo sparked rumors that the two would be working together on the band's upcoming album, Save Rock and Roll , due on April 16.
Now, reps for FOB have confirmed that the legendary pop icon has indeed recorded a track with the band at a studio in Atlanta for Save Rock and Roll . No other information about the song they recorded has been made available.
Last month, Stump hinted to Billboard that there would be "a couple of guests" on their forthcoming record, so there may be some more surprise collaborations headed our way.

Future of Foyles: Shelving the Bookstore?
I recently had the pleasure of attending Foyles' 'bookshop of the future' workshop. The iconic Charing Cross bookstore is about to relocate and, in so doing, create a new bookstore designed for success in the modern book-selling landscape. The workshop served to gather insight from a cross-section of the industry, to help them achieve this ambitious goal in what they hoped would be potentially disruptive ways.
Even though my own career in publishing has focused on digital media, my natural affinity for physical books and stores has remained. So much so that, on the day of the workshop, I found myself not an ambassador for Foyles' digital frontiers, but a reactionary for digital restraint. In the no-holds-barred atmosphere that ensued, the integrity of the physical bookstore was at stake.
Of course, the traditional bookstore as we know it is certainly failing. More readers are flocking to Amazon for lower pricing, larger range, and arguably a better search experience. I admit that I haven't bought a book from a physical bookshop in years. (Although, irreverently, I have used my phone to buy books from the Big A at least once while on bookshop premises.) If we assume that Foyles cannot compete on pricing and range, the situation is looking pretty dismal for people like me.
This is why I was not surprised that many opinions in the workshop centred around making Foyles a cultural destination: a groovy 'place to be', full of events, courses and cafés. After all, these are things you can't get on Amazon. But as fun as all this would be, to me it suggests giving up altogether. It says a bookstore that's simply a bookstore can't work anymore.
By some measurements, these peripheral features may even make more money than books, so why shouldn't we focus on them? But herein lies the problem, not the solution. The question is not what would make Foyles more profitable, for then Foyles should just quit and become a casino. The interesting question is, how can Foyles be more profitable as a bookstore?
The answer lies, I think, not in 'groovifying' Foyles (think "touchscreens everywhere, even on the walls outside the store") – which is at most a finishing touch – but in the positive aspects of the experience of buying a book that Amazon can't capture. Foyles has something Amazon can never have: physical depth. It is much nicer to browse through a book collection you can see and touch. This may be a good candidate for a focal point on which to reconstruct the bookshop experience.
So with that in mind, my first thought is to accept that bookstores are a browsing experience, not a searching experience. This may mean getting rid of A-Z arrangements, because they serve a purpose that Amazon serves far better. Books could instead be organised by collections, based on genre, interests, topics, current issues and ideas. Rather than collecting together 'bestsellers', Foyles could curate a standing collection of 'Top 100 All-Time Must-Reads'. These could be presented in beautiful bound editions at the front, enticing you in like a perfume section, and giving new or unlikely readers an easy way in.
If the physical bookstore is the focal point, we should see the books more prominently rather than stacked up spine-to-spine. Perhaps we don't need to see fives copies of every book, for that only serves to bloat shelves and separate individual titles. Anything that solves a practical issue for staff at the expense of making shopping less easy for customers surely deserves a rethink.
And while we're trying to build a better browsing experience, let's also not forget to limit the negatives that usually come with it. It may sound dull but browsing needs to be a logistical possibility too: there's no point in beautiful shelves and reading zones if you are carrying supermarket shopping in both hands and are bursting for the loo. A bag drop and toilet facilities should go without saying.
Above all, what Amazon can't compete with is the feeling of being in a bookstore, and the aspiration to be the kind of person who visits book shops. Adding a disco or selling stationery wouldn't address this aspiration, but book-related accessories (why aren't there posters for books like films?) could, with a distinctive Foyles bag in which to carry away your purchases. Even a café isn't totally relevant, but a café where you can read the books from the shelves around you could be.
As a leader in the bookshop industry, Foyles' success is exciting for everyone who is a lover of real bookstores and real books. But let's remember to measure their success in relevant ways, rather than just on profit. After all, it won't count if Foyles turn their bookstore into something that isn't really about books.
Hopefully Foyles reads your blog...
...because I'm glad someone talks sense in this debate!
A big problem for the book-selling industry is that the product is the same wherever you buy it, so price can easily become the main decision-point - and everyone knows Amazon is cheaper. Buying experience is therefore everything in swaying that decision. And it's easy to focus your answer to that on "curation this, curation that", but your point about the periphery of the buying experience is possibly more important: bag drops, nice facilities, excellent presentation, etc.
The mundane must not be overlooked in improving the buying experience. Has Foyles inspected every last minutiae of its checkout process to make it as smooth as physically possible? Because Amazon has.
Re: Good Ideas
Thanks! I agree with your points about better displays, and like your ideas about getting partners involved in this.
The thing that worries me about the staff comment is that realistically getting the right calibre of people and training them is expensive. We don't want to have to rely on face-to-face selling of books to make our margins. However in an ideal world, yes, it would be fantastic if the staff were both knowledgeable and passionate about different sections of the store.
Author missed the point
"Of course, the traditional bookstore as we know it is certainly failing."
"I admit that I haven't bought a book from a physical bookshop in years."
"I have used my phone to buy books from the Big A at least once while on bookshop premises."
And yet the problem is that the problem is that you don't want bookstores to change in a way that would make them more profitable? You want the booklstores to "build a better browsing experience" for you? Why, so more people like you can inspect the books in the bookstore and then buy them on Amazon? If the bookstores are going to survive, they're going to HAVE TO change. I'm sorry that messes with your idea of what a bookstore "ought" to be, but you're going to have to a)learn to live with the changes, b)actually patronize them in a tangible way instead of treating them like glorified warehouses. Or else you can c)kiss them good bye.
In the mean time, stop advocating for stupid things. Seriously, "a better browsing experience"?
Curation is key
From the ground up, the new bookshop strategy should be built on one key concept - curation - and that should touch every aspect of the business from buying strategies to marketing strategies, from signage to staffing. People want to be told what the next big thing is, they want to be shown the classics they might have missed, they want knowledgeable staff to recommend them books - it's why staff picks in stores always work so well. Visiting a bookstore has to become a personal experience where you don't have to do what you do when you browse online - wade through interminable amounts of dross to find something decent. Less will be more and moments of aspiration will convert to sales. Of course strategic promotions and disconts will be key, but these will need to also be themed and curated. The genre 3 for 2 is dead - the themed 3 for 2 will rule.
Re: Curation is key
Exactly right, nickatkinson7, I do believe careful curation is at the heart of it. Amazon collections can end up being impersonal and indiscriminate, and when you have a whole world of books to browse, everyone could do with some help. I get a little nervous about staff picks though - I'm sure I even heard someone at the workshop tell me that sometimes they are written quickly by the same single person in the store. Not sure if that is true! I'd be much more interested by the expert reviewers in the industry rather than staff who may or may not be real experts.
Good Ideas
I too was at the Foyles workshop, and I think your angle of approach is a good one. The biggest downside of better displays is less shelf space. That is not to say that better, more flexible displays are not needed, just that it will be interesting to see what the balance is.
The an importnat measure here is turnover. Face-outs aid turnover certainly, but so does selection. Perhaps more flexible shelving options (in conjunction with a design school perhaps?) would aid here, esp. in children's picture book sections.
I also think window displays need to remain the purview of the seller, not the publisher. A dozen copies of a single book in a window passed by hundreds of people is fine and may look nice, but if 6 of those copies were a centerpeice, and single copies of 8 other related titles surrounded them, more books would move certainly.
The book-related accessories you note are a point I argued for in our group as well. Book cover posters, book stands, book snakes, new and classic book-themed art prints (remember the picture of a guy standing on a tall ladder in front of an even taller bookshelf, his face buried in a book?), even small funky bookshelves. Local art/craft groups woudl bve excellent partners in this.
But staff is truly key. They have to have ownership of their sections, be able to have time to sell, and not just do maintenance. They will turn a good section into an outstanding one, a book that is a good seller into a great seller. Perhaps the old time distinction of stocker vs salesman needs a revisit.

FARGO, ND. (KFGO AM) -- Fargo police are warning those looking to attend this weekend's Lady Antebellum concert to be careful where they get their tickets.
The warning comes after reports of fraudulent tickets being sold to Saturday night's Pink concert.
The list is endless for cheap tickets to upcoming shows in Fargo on Craigslist.
Police Lieutenant Joel Vettel is urging deal seekers to be careful.
The Fargodome's web site indicates that the dome is not responsible for lost or stolen tickets.
And if you decide to try the secondary market, you're on your own.
Tickets are still available for this weekend's Lady Antebellum concert, as well as future concerts for Luke Bryan and Justin Timberlake.

Roundup: Interior and Exterior Stone Walls
Stone walls are one of the oldest forms of architecture, and they remain a great building material for homes and gardens. Unlike wood, stone doesn't rot or need replacing, and it comes in a range of beautiful colors from warm red to cool gray. If you're considering a stacked stone wall in your garden or you just want to look, click through our roundup of inspiring stone spaces...

Beautiful photos! I love the first outdoor one with the modern furniture by B&B Italia- amazing!
Here are two other great stone walls that I found:
I think that even though it's stone (that many times can look "cold" ) both spaces are warm and inviting.
Just beware that some types of stone don't weather as well as others and can crumble and chip away.
I love stone, but picking the right color for the mortar is essential. Yes, the walls in the first photo are incredible.
A lot of the lofts in my neighborhood have original 18th and 19th century stone walls, and they're stunning. I covet them.
if it's wrong to fall in love with a wall....then i don't wanna be right. that first wall is gorge.
I love the look of stone (interior and exterior). Growing up, I shared a bedroom with my brother for awhile and then eventually moved into my own bedroom that had a stone wall. I remember feeling very grown up when I moved into that room "with the stone wall."
My dad (stone expert/mason) had built a chimney on our first house out of volcanic rock which was really cool and unique.
In my condo, I had thought about incorporating some dry stack stone into a feature wall. I think I've got my stone fix with my pebble tiles in the bathroom. These tiles are a pretty straightforward way of getting some stone in your place. They would even make a cool looking backsplash.
There is a brand new product on the market that is a flexible stone. It is a very thin veneer of stone on a special mat that can be seamlessly wrapped around columns, etc.
I love stone. I've made several low dry stacked walls of local fieldstone and have also used it for garden paths. I've gotten it delivered ($$$ due to the enormous weight) and have collected it by hand from pastureland (which left me dirtier, sweatier, and more tired than I've ever been in my life). It's all been very satisfying work, though.
My future projects include facing a chimney breast with dry-stacked cultured stone (some of which is nice, and it's way cheaper than real stone and much easier to install), and making a small patio of bluestone slabs. If my joints hold up long enough, that is.
If you like stone walls, check out Dan Snow's work: http://www.inthecompanyofstone.blogspot.com/
Andy Goldsworthy has also done some really beautiful things working with traditional stonemasons.
I did a dry-stacked stone wall for a goldfish pond in the backyard of our Philly rowhouse, 3 feet & 4 feet long. Took 1500 lbs. of PA bluestone, carried in thru our front door. Couldn't stand up straight the next day....
Lew French is another great one:
I love stone walls. There are some that are ugly, mainly because of weird unnatural color combinations, but the majority are beautiful. Eventually I hope to add stone veneer to the concrete exposed foundation of my house... I think for indoor stone to work, it needs to be fairly subtle -- mainly texture and minimal color variation.
my whole house is stone. (on the outside anyways.)
Fieldstone houses are pretty common in my area. They have the stacked stone fences surrounding the properties. It's always been my dream to own a house like that. Some are very old....around the 18th century. I love the quaint and folky warmth they have.

When it comes to San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick, there is a lot of excitement surrounding the young gun. He has been discussed so often in the past few weeks that even his tattoos have become a topic of discussion. Now, thanks to veteran receiver Randy Moss, it's not Kaepernick's ink that is getting the publicity — it is his arm strength.
[RELATED: Colin Kaepernick receiving unfair criticism for tattoos.]
Moss said that Kaepernick throws harder than any quarterback he has ever played with. In fact, the man his teammates know as "Kap," threw the ball so hard in his first NFL start that it resulted in a first for Moss' career as well.
"Man, he dislocated my finger," Moss said, per CSNBayArea.com. "[H]e had to put one them Randy Johnson fastballs on me. When it hit my finger, I felt my finger pop — dislocated it. So I had to come back to the sideline and the doctor had to pop it back in.
"I try to take pride in taking care of my body and finessing the balls as they come to me, but Kap throws hard. He's very strong and he works out every day. And I didn't really say anything to him other than, 'Keep doing what he's doing.' My finger will heal up. It hurt. It hurt. It really did. I tried not to show any tears. I don't know if they caught me crying or not. But it did hurt, but like I said, it's not the time of the year to be crying because it's late in the season. Everybody's hurting. Everybody's ailing. Everybody's feeling a little bit of pain. Some go home and some keep moving. And we want to be the team that keeps moving."
Not only is Moss impressed with his young quarterback's arm strength, but Kaepernick has been able to step into the huddle and provide a type of leadership that is very rare for a signal-caller with so few NFL starts under his belt.
"I think that Kap's been able to come in and lead us as a whole unit," Moss said. "Any time a guy can come in and lead like that, and I don't mean verbally, I mean leading by example, it's what we as football players look for in a player, especially a quarterback. So I really just compliment his leadership and going out there and leading our offense up and down the field."
There is no doubt that the hype train for Kaepernick is going to keep rolling, but it looks like there is a lot more to the youngster out of Nevada's game. He isn't just hype. He is the real deal and he is convincing his teammates that he is the man that will lead them to the promise land.

Authorities have identified a man who drowned in the Salt River on Saturday after jumping off a cliff.
The victim is 21-year-old Jwan Frazier, of Phoenix.
Maricopa County sheriff's spokesman Christopher Hegstrom said around 4 p.m., witnesses saw the victim tubing down the river with friends.
At some point, Frazier decided to climb up a 15-foot cliff and jump off into the water, Hegstrom said.
He resurfaced but appeared to be struggling.
Friends attempted to help the victim, however he was flailing, according to Hegstrom.
Frazier went under again and didn't resurface. The body was recovered just before 6 p.m. in 8 feet of water.
