Ben and Sam talk about whether Kawasaki being sent to the minors tells us anything about chemistry, then discuss how much the Tigers' defense hurts them.

The Orioles and Tigers announcers give a clinic in how to determine intent and stick up for the good guys in 15 seconds.
After the Tigers hit back-to-back-to-back home runs in the fourth inning this afternoon Jason Hammel hit Matt Tuiasosopo with a high breaking ball on the first pitch of the subsequent at-bat and Hammel was ejected.

What has to go wrong for Justin Verlander to have a bad day at work?
The stage was set for an epic duel in Arlington last Thursday, pitting perennial CY Young contender Justin Verlander against 2013's frontrunner for the hardware, Yu Darvish of the Rangers. The matchup was a slam-dunk selection for the Game of the Week on this week's episode of TINSTAAPP, and the hype was such that it took thoughtful consideration before co-host/BP colleague Paul Sporer reluctantly chose the "under" when I set the line at 23 strikeouts for the two starters combined.
To say that the game fell short of expectation is a massive understatement. Darvish threw 130 pitches in a game in which he surrendered four runs over the first four frames yet was in no danger of losing. Verlander saw to it that Darvish would get his seventh win of the season, surrendering eight earned runs before he could escape the third inning. The third frame of Thursday's game was the worst of Verlander's career—the Rangers plated seven runners, including two via bases-loaded walks, and the outing ended mercifully after Geovany Soto knocked a 97-mph fastball into the left-field stands for an 8-3 Ranger lead.

Dave Dombrowski declared that the Tigers and their deposed closer were never ever getting back together, but they couldn't stay apart.
Jose Valverde recorded a save against the Royals last October 1st, in his final regular-season game of 2012. He also recorded a save against the Royals yesterday, in his first regular-season game of 2013. Between those two games, Valverde lost his job as closer, spent six months looking for work, and finally re-signed with the same team, which supposedly had no interest in bringing him back. Because the trip was so circuitous, it's worth recounting how he got from point A to point B, even though the two points look so similar.
During the winter, when we're starved for baseball and wondering where free agents will end up, we treat each new report and rumor as if it might mean something. Where there's smoke, there's sometimes a signing. Of course, most rumors don't lead to confirmed reports. They're based on bad information, or good information that goes stale. They get published, tweeted, and blogged about briefly before being replaced by the next rumor, which usually has just as short a shelf life. It's hard to ignore the mostly non-news in the moment, but when the offseason is over and we know where all the free agents fell, it's fun (and often illustrative) to sift through the conflicting reports and rumors and wonder where they came from. So that's what we have here: an annotated timeline of how Jose Valverde wound up at the back of the same bullpen.

The Tigers award their ace an extension that will pay him more than any other pitcher (at least until Clayton Kershaw's next contract). Was it wise?
March 28, 2013 4:08 pm
Are the stats missing something the Tigers' skipper sees?
You might not think it's particularly important for a team to have a dominant closer, or even to have a defined one. But Tigers manager Jim Leyland definitely does. Two months ago, he told The Detroit News, "I totally disagree with people who don't think you need a closer to win. Most teams that win have a truly dominant closer."

Flash back to the first time Porcello competed for a spot in a crowded Tiger rotation.
While looking toward the future with our comprehensive slate of current content, we'd also like to recognize our rich past by drawing upon our extensive (and mostly free) online archive of work dating back to 1997. In an effort to highlight the best of what's gone before, we'll be bringing you a weekly blast from BP's past, introducing or re-introducing you to some of the most informative and entertaining authors who have passed through our virtual halls. If you have fond recollections of a BP piece that you'd like to nominate for re-exposure to a wider audience, send us your suggestion.
The Tigers have to decide what to do with Rick Porcello, who's competing for the fifth-starter slot with Drew Smyly this spring and could end up on the trade block. They were facing a similar situation when David Laurila caught up with a younger Porcello in the piece reprinted below, which was originally published as a "Prospectus Q&A" column on April 1, 2009.

The 2013 Tigers will be heavy, slow, and probably bad at baserunning. How much will it hurt them?
We're not great at holding a lot of small details in our brain for a long period of time, so we summarize and categorize, often remembering only the nut graph of a story rather than the specifics. I think we do this for baseball teams, too, and I'm sure I do it for baseball teams. I know a little bit about every Tiger, but when I think about the Tigers I mainly think along the lines of these bigger, summarizing narratives:

NEW YORK (Reuters) - RadioShack
The news, which was first reported by the Wall Street Journal, boosted the U.S. consumer electronics chain's shares by about 7 percent to $3.52 on Monday.
Two sources told Reuters earlier this month that General Electric Co's
A spokesman for GE Capital declined to comment. A spokeswoman for RadioShack did not return a call seeking comment.
RadioShack had been looking to refinance existing debt to cut borrowing costs and assure vendors and other key partners that it has enough cash to fund turn-around efforts led by Chief Executive Joe Magnacca.
The Journal reported that the new loan, around $835 million, will be secured by existing assets, including inventory.
Sales at RadioShack have been falling rapidly amid executive departures, strong competition and an image problem. Analysts say that despite a ubiquitous presence in the United States, RadioShack has not done enough to transform itself into a destination for mobile phone shoppers or to make itself attractive to younger shoppers.

The community thinks...
They don't make them like they use to, unfortunately! by Gray Ghost from Central PA on 06/21/2012. Trim: 2002 Buick Regal GS, Owned 7 years.
Pros: I've owned my supercharged 2002 Regal GS with the Abboud package since 2005. I like the fact that it is fast, functional and unobtrusive to law enforcement. I can afford to upgrade to a newer vehicle, but I can't find one I enjoy as much as my old Buick.
Cons: Absolutely nothing. The new turbo-charged 4 cylinder replacement Buick Regal is an overpriced joke!
Overall review: I've owned over 50 cars and trucks in my 48 years of driving and this Regal GS is my favorite. As the second owner and with 90,000 on the odometer all that's been required is normal maintenance; oil changes, filters, belts, hoses, tires, battery. Nothing has ever failed, broken or fallen off. The 240 stock horses and 280 ft lbs of torque are still there!

Note: This is the eighth post in a 10-part series [1], drawn from Connecting the Mind, Body and Spirit: Reflections on Health, produced by the Clergy Health Initiative and distributed at the 2010 United Methodist Annual Conferences in North Carolina. Each reflection is tied to the lectionary; we will publish each reflection a week in advance of the Sunday to which it is tied.
August 22, 2010
Luke 13:10-17 • When he laid his hands on her, immediately she stood up straight and began praising God.
In his woodcut, "Pilgrim's Progress," the artist Robert Hodgell depicts a man bent over, not unlike the woman in today's scripture from Luke. Strapped to the man's back are large rocks, and written on them is the question, "What shall I do to be saved?" He tries to walk forward, but his burden is too great. Behind him are laughing faces, deriding him and adding to his woe.
This "pilgrim" makes little progress because he has burdened himself with the weight of his own salvation. This ill-health is deeply spiritual, marked by our human desire to save ourselves, rather than to accept the freedom that Jesus offers us.
Like the pilgrim and the ailing woman in this passage from Luke, many of us have seen the forces in life that can cripple us. We have seen parishioners burdened by the weight of grief, sadness, loss of work, economic woes, the failure of important relationships, or the inability to meet their own goals or others' expectations. This weight can literally cripple and bend us over – we can see the pain in faces, in slumped shoulders, and in the broken rhythms of life. This ill-health taxes all of our abilities to cope, and we lose a sense of hope and promise. We cannot straighten up, and we fear we never will.
And there are those crippled by devastating diseases, diseases that make crooked our bones and leave us, as the woman in Luke, "bent over." Those who are bent know diminished freedom and individual power. Such illness requires remarkable adaptation to the "healthy" world, a world where bones, at least for the moment, are straight and strong and allow us to move wherever we want to go. To revive us and give us health and freedom, we seek doctors, clinics, and hospitals – we seek to heal ourselves. But often, like this woman in the synagogue, health care cannot straighten us, cannot unbend us.
So this woman went to the synagogue. What a remarkable thing that preachers look out each Sunday and see a congregation of people, who, like this woman, are bent over by sin, illness, and burdens too heavy for them to bear. Why did this woman come? Did she come to synagogue as any observant Jew would, as her Sabbath right and duty? She does not appear to come asking for anything. She does not call out to Jesus – Jesus calls out to her. Wesleyans understand the wooing grace of God, a grace that comes to us before we call upon it.
And Jesus saw her. What a remarkable blessing: this woman is seen by our Savior, and in this seeing comes a call to him, a healing touch, and a response of praise. The church is the Body of Christ, and Jesus reaches out to us and calls us as well. Our opportunity, like that of Jesus, is to look about us and see. We can see those bent over and unable to stand, crippled by a spirit, and we can offer healing to them. We can announce the Good News that Christ Jesus sees and knows our burdens and illness. We can be set free, even on the Sabbath, for such work is of the Lord. We only give praise. Praise that we all are made whole in Jesus Christ. Praise that we can participate in this healing work. All of us stand before God as broken sinners, unable to straighten up. In the church we confess our human condition and create solidarity with all like us who are broken. And we celebrate that the eyes of Christ are upon us. In the fellowship of the church we are called and touched and embraced.
In this story the woman is healed; she is made straight. We know that when we see, touch, and announce freedom from the burdens that weigh us down, not all of us are cured. But as in this Gospel story, we are all set free and given wholeness, purpose, and promise through Jesus Christ.
W. Joseph Mann is executive director at Leadership Development at Duke Divinity and an ordained elder in the North Carolina Conference of the United Methodist Church.
Questions to Consider
- There is a deep indignity in that bent-over pilgrim in Hodgell's woodcut and in the woman in Luke 13: neither of them is able to look another human being in the face. Grace empowers us to see Christ face-to-face, but in that eye contact there is obligation. Do we cling to unhealthy aspects of ourselves because we fear the moment of being straightened and obliged to look Christ in the eye?
- The woman in Luke's story still comes faithfully to synagogue, despite her illness, seemingly called or driven by something. When congregants bring their woundedness to church, what are the risks to the pastor's own health and well-being? What resources help clergy manage the risk?

Our perfectly flattering peplum has a swingy silhouette, deep surplice neckline with built-in tank, and wide, gathered straps that sit nicely on the shoulders. Most tempting of all? The rainbow range of colors. Hits just below the hip. Pima cotton jersey, garment-washed for softness. Imported.
Our dazzling day-to-night mainstay in smooth cotton modal is the perfect topper to denim, black pants or a teensy party skirt. Lined sequined front. Scoop neckline. Raw edges. Hip length. Imported.
Totally on trend, our two-in-one top has a little edge in the form of a striped tank that purposely peeks out from the bottom of an airy mesh top. Together they make for an easygoing and entirely flattering silhouette. Open-weave mesh top has a scoop neck, drop shoulders, and long sleeves. Tank is tunic length. The two layers are attached at the neckline. Outer is nylon with a bit of spandex. Inner tank is cotton/rayon/spandex blend. Imported.
Based on the fit of one of our favorite dresses, this ruched top has the grace to go with any bottom in your collection, from silky pants to swingy skirts. The very flattering and feminine cut features small cap sleeves, a wide scoop neckline, and diagonal gathers at the bodice. Hip length. Lightweight cotton/modal jersey, double-layered at the bodice. Imported.
It's sequin season, and this easygoing top is ready to celebrate. The luxe-textured tonal sequins are scattered across the front, while the back is plain — a stylish split personality that gives the tee the ability to pair with casual cords or silky skirts. The oversized, poncho-like fit tapers at the waist. Cap sleeves. Low-hip length. Cotton/modal jersey. Imported.
A little bib of embellishment goes a long way to elevate a simple tank to a statement maker. We used sheer poly to create the mermaid-inspired petals (so it will look pristine, wash after wash). The slim fit looks sweetly chic on its own or ladylike layered under a cardigan. Slightly longer than hip length. Ribbed cotton/spandex. Imported.
A scroll of Moroccan-inspired embroidery gives this tank a modern bohemian accent. We like how understated the adornment is, whether it's atop basic black or white, or sitting pretty on a geometric print. Fitted, with an A-line sweep. Shirttail hem hits just below the hip. Cotton/modal. Imported.
It's the little things that make our classic V-neck a must-have. It's lean (but not too tight), long (with a pretty, rounded hem), and airy soft (for easy layering). And it comes in six great shades. Short sleeves. Slightly longer than hip length. Lightweight cotton/modal. Lighter colors are semisheer; we recommend wearing with a tank or camisole. Peru.
Folkloric inspired, our fresh floral tunic makes the most of original embroidery by playing up the contrast (white tops get colorful threads and colorful tops get white threads). Free-spirited details include a so-flattering A-line fit, sweet keyhole neck and shirttail hem. Sleeveless. Tunic length. Cotton/modal, garment-washed for softness. Imported
Our clever stretch-cotton camisole features a built-in underwire bra with seamless molded cups for a smooth look and supportive fit — now available in a range of smaller sizes, starting at 32A. Layer under everything or confidently wear solo. Adjustable spaghetti straps and back hook closure. Cotton/spandex. Imported.
A gleaming sequined tank in your choice of all-out color or chic stripes. Rock the sparkles by going sequin-on-sequin (with, say, a modern glittery skirt) or downplay the glimmer under a casual jean jacket. Either way, the look is laid-back luxury. Slight A-line silhouette. Scoop neck. Sleeveless. Sequin embellishment on front only. Slightly longer than hip length with shirttail hem. Cotton/modal jersey. Imported.
Our graceful go-with-everything tee has a low scoop neckline and gentle A-line silhouette that swings over skinny jeans or a range of skirts from mini to maxi. Crafted from a supersoft fabric with a subtle slubbed texture that comes in a sunny palette of solids and dots. Short sleeves. Slightly longer than hip length. Cotton. Peru.

Chiffon A-line Gown with Side Draped Bodice Style V9409 208 209
Don't overlook I had previously purchached a Galina. This was recommended to me by a Davids Bridal in New Hampshire when I live there. The gown was not for me and I was unhappy from day one. I decided to purchase another gown and went to my local stores in Florida. I am 4'11" and about 130 lbs. Not huge, but definatly have a big chest and a little tummy. The problem I encountered was ALL of the gowns made me look HUGE and really short. This was not one on my list. I had over looked it so many times. It was picked by my mom. I tried it on and knew it was "the one". It fits so perfect. Has just enough puff (I also bought a petticoat to go under for the ceremony) and allowed me to be cool enough ( my wedding was all outdoors in Florida.) The gown is just prefect. I was so pleased and everyone really loved the back!!! My one suggestion would be for a bustle to have the buttons and not the hook eyes. The bustle didn't stay in place at all. The gown kept falling and I kept stepping on it. November 2, 2010
My Purchase This is the gown I have purchased for my wedding in may. It is absolutley gorgeous. very comfortable and slims you down! October 31, 2010
Comfortable and very figure flattering. Good for busty girls! I had a hard time feeling slim in any of the wedding dresses I was trying on (and I'm not that big of a girl - just have big hips) and this dress looked stunning! October 29, 2010
the perfect in between! This dress is absolutely beautiful! I ordered it in the Ivory and I just love it! Fits perfect!! Not a lot of poof but not ���night gown��� looking either. The perfect in between, especially for a beach wedding! The beading is gorgeous along with the corset lace up on the back. Simple, but not plain! October 28, 2010

According to Tracy Police Lt. Mark Duxbury, the men, possibly armed with handguns, entered the house before 12:30 p.m. and surprised the woman inside.
Duxbury said the men bound the woman and burglarized her house, while the woman's toddler daughter was sleeping in one of the bedrooms.
"We don't know the extent of what was taken," Duxbury said. "We're doing a neighborhood canvas looking for witnesses."
Duxbury said officers were having difficulty with their initial investigation because the victim was speaking a language unknown to officers.
"There was a significant time delay from the time it occurred and the time she got a hold of the police department," Duxbury said. "Know it was a theft, don't know how entry was made until the interview (with the victim) is completed."
The victim had reportedly called someone and that person called police around 1:24 p.m.
The two gunmen are described by police as adult males wearing masks or hoods to conceal their identities, but little else was known.
As officers went door-to-door to interview neighbors, residents standing outside their homes expressed surprise over what had occurred in their seemingly quiet residential court.
"We were home, but we heard nothing," said neighbor Enrique Guzman. "I'm surprised. It's usually a very safe neighborhood."
A resident living near the victim's house, who asked to remain anonymous, said he was asleep inside his house when it happened.
"Someone banged on my door," he said, referring to officers going door-to-door. "I was upstairs sleeping. I'm not happy it's in my neighborhood; pretty quiet neighborhood. The biggest thing we ever had here before was when (former San Francisco 49er) Keena Turner was here because someone threw something at his car."
Investigators were still interviewing the victim by press time at 4 p.m. on Thursday.
Anyone with information should contact The Tracy Crime Stoppers tip line at 831-4847 or by calling Investigator Jim Harries at 831-6628.
"Hopefully we'll get some tips over the weekend," said Tracy police Sgt. Luis Mejia, who oversees the detective division.
• Contact Denise Ellen Rizzo at 830-4225 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

"You're right, I would love that…to have a big wedding, have my dad give me away. That would mean more to me than anything. But it's never gonna happen, I know him Chris, I know what he's like. And he will never accept us, never alright! He's dug his heels in and that's it. The whole world, all of Corpus Christi could come tumbling down on his head and he would not budge! The only way that he will know that I am not going to give you up, is if we go out and get married right now…then he'll have to accept us."

Sparks are flying between her and her co-star Rodrigo Santoro and multiple on-set insiders reveal to Life & Style that it's not just for the cameras! "There is amazing chemistry between them," one on-set insider tells Life & Style. "Jennifer can't get over how hot Rodrigo is."
The two, who are currently filming What to Expect When You're Expecting in Atlanta, have been getting very close and numerous eyewitness's say that their flirty fun continues long after the director yells "cut!" "Rodrigo and Jennifer were giving each other little love taps between scenes," an eyewitness tells Life & Style. "They are very playful with each other and clearly comfortable in each other's company."
I don't believe any of this, but for the sake of argument, William Levy is MUCH better looking.
Gone are the days when Alex Rodriguez was the all star that was praised for his talent, potential and hard work.
These days A-Rod is making headlines for whom he's dating, steroid allegations, and now playing poker? According to ESPN, A-Rod had already been warned about his gambling and this time, he just might get suspended for it. He was allegedly in attendance with Leo Di Caprio, Toby McGuire and others engaging in a game of poker at a Beverly Hills mansion. There was open use of cocaine and one of the players almost go their asses kicked after refusing to pay over $500,000.00 they lost at the table- allegedly.
I guess after all of this, he'll stick to playing on TrippleJack.
Fashion Don't. Where do I begin? I'll keep it short, in the words of the Great Joan Rivers, "Just because it zips, doesn't mean it fits."
Amy Winehouse's cremation ceremony isn't even over yet and someone is already making a bad joke? And Keri Hilson of all people? No one cares what you have to say, especially when its in such bad taste.
Guess those hairy k-ankles…
yup, those mothers belong to the lovely and talented Alicia Keys. See, not everyone is perfect.

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO AM) - A Sioux Falls woman is accused of raping three boys; two 7-year-olds and a 10-year-old.
Officer Sam Clemens says it was the boyfriend of 30-year-old Anne Elizabeth Doubler who called police yesterday. Clemens says the boyfriend had picked up the couple's 4-year-old son and was bringing him to their apartment.
Clemens says when the boyfriend walked into the apartment Doubler was naked and there were three boys with her. When the boys saw the boyfriend they ran out the door. Clemens says the boyfriend confronted the woman and called police.
Clemens says police believe there may be other victims in the North Lewis Avenue apartments but for now Doubler is facing three counts of rape.
She's also charged with sexual contact with a child under sixteen and sexual exploitation of a minor.

David Harris on Seizure of State Senate Computers in Sen. Jane Orie Case
Professor David Harris commented on the seizure of computers belonging to the State Senate in the continuing investigation into the conduct of State Sen. Jane Orie. The Senate Republican Caucus had earlier taken possession of the computers issued to Orie. Prosecutors will search the computers for evidence of who used them, allegedly with Senator Orie's password, to access and perhaps tamper with documents. Professor Harris told the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review that "[t]he fact that they've gotten warrants and served them shows that they're following the trail wherever it leads them...Searching the information system of another branch of government is no small thing."

For Immediate Release:Democratic CaucusLouisville Metro CouncilContact: Tony Hyatt 574-4137 / 526-3622Louisville – With the April 15th deadline passed, Councilwoman Cindi Fowler (D-14) is thanking everyone who participated in the 2013 VITA Program in Metro Louisville.
"Once again, we have helped low income families in our area receive the most benefit from their income tax returns," said Fowler. "We have many dedicated volunteers who not only help prepare tax returns but serve as greeters and site coordinators as well. Without these wonderful people who unselfishly give of their time and talent this service would not be possible."
For several years, members of the Metro Council have partnered with the Louisville Asset Building Coalition, A Metro United Way program to offset the cost of the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (V.I.T.A) program. With the use of Neighborhood Development Funds, the Council members have helped low income families receive all of the deductions to which they are entitled. The service is free to those making less than $50,000 annually.
The Sun Valley Community Center continued it participation in the program this year by filing 1,583 tax returns for area families. This is the most returns that have been filed in the six year history of the Center's participation in VITA.
In 2012, the program filed 9,300 returns and in over a decade of service and has returned $82 million in total refunds to our community. VITA operates from January through October 15th.
"Low income families are the most impacted by the economic downturn and VITA not only helps them but returns millions of dollars to our local economy," said Fowler.
Officials with VITA hope to have overall results from this year's program by summer.

The Nike Kobe 9 Elite will be making its way to grade school sizes, according to a forum user on Nike Talk. The NT member posted a picture of the Nike Kobe 9 Elite "Perspective" in a size fit for kids at a retail location in Korea.
The Nike Kobe 9 Elite releasing in GS sizes is significant for several reasons. This will be the first time a Nike sneaker with Flyknit technology will release in GS sizes; Nike has opted to keep previous product with Flyknit in adult sizes only. The GS Kobe 9 also features a lower cut overall in comparison to its adult size counterpart, looking more like a mid-cut or 3/4-cut shoe that some have been hoping for. The carbon fiber on the midsole has also been retained, meaning that those in smaller sizes but looking for the same technological benefits of the bigger sizes will not be compromised.
With the Nike Kobe 9 Elite "Perspective" expected to launch in American territories on March 8, there is still no official word from Nike Basketball whether the GS size will release day and date with the adult sizes or if they plan taking a different approach with the release.

Recent rainstorms have been prevalent in Divide County. This past one had five-inches of rain, and it has affected residents all around the county.
Flooding has been an issue in Divide County this year, but the problem really started a couple years ago. In the fall of 2010, roads and many other things become flooded.
"April." says Greg Jacobs a Divide County farmer. "And then in May, we ended up with 20 inches of rain in one month. It just ballooned into a big problem. We lost a fair amount of agricultural land to water."
A farmer's most prized possession is their farmland, and in the Mentor township, Jacobs hasn't been able to grow crops on his land. This used to be a 150 acres of farmland, but now only 60 acres are unusable. Other farmers have faced similar problems.
"In our particular case, we have most of our farmland, we can't get to it. It's on the wrong side of some flooded roads," says Jody Gunlock the emergency manager for Divide County.
The extra water has helped the wildlife in the area, but not the drivers. This road is located in the Troy township and the water has caused the county to close it.
"We've gotten to the point where we have sloughs that are literally running over and then runs into another slough." says Gunlock. "It's turning into a cascade effect, and it's really going into some of the larger sloughs and have flooded some major roads."
One of those roads is in the Border township, and it is also closed due to extra flooding. In the past couple years, the Federal Highway Administration helped fix some of the roads, but now they are flooded again.
"Some of oil companies come in and help build roads a little bit because that's their only chance at getting at some of these wells. We've gotten a little oil impact money, but it's nothing compared to what is needed to put these roads back in shape," says Jacobs.
Gunlock says the county commissioners have declared the flooding a county disaster and are now requesting the state do the same. She added if the state recognizes it as a disaster then they will have the opportunity to receive federal assistance to help with the problem.
Evangelist Franklin Graham prayed on a sidewalk outside the Pentagon Thursday after his invitation to a prayer service inside was withdrawn because of comments that insulted people of other religions. More>>

An earlier version of this article stated an incorrect amount of titles Textbooks.com has in stock. The online retailer has 10 million textbooks in stock.
Too many college students' biggest textbook worry is not how heavy lugging their books to class will be, but how much of an impact the books will have on their bank accounts. It's no doubt one of the most frustrating parts of beginning each semester: that dreaded trip to the university bookstore to see how much that big, long list of books is going to cost you this time. However, there's hope out there for all of us looking to save a little money this fall on one of the slightly-less-exciting school expenses. Check out Her Campus's guide to fall textbook shopping guaranteed to save you time, and, of course, lots of moolah.
DO use your fellow students as resources when it comes to purchasing or getting rid of books.
This should be one of your first stops when comparing prices for fall books. Alice Chen, a recent grad of Emory University, explains: "I'd reach out to upperclassmen or other students who had taken the classes I was taking, because they usually sell them for prices cheaper than what's offered in the bookstore. Likewise, selling books to other students is more profitable than selling books back to the bookstore — what you'd get 25 cents for at the bookstore could be $25 if you sell directly to another student!"
It's basic economics: both students benefit in this scenario, so it's one of your best options for saving crazy amounts of money. And, with a Facebook group set up for every class at your school, buying and selling textbooks is a breeze! Create a post in your group, ask around in your sorority house or on your sorority list-serv, check with fellow teammates or anyone else you can think of and see if they have the books you need. It never hurts to ask!
DON'T make the university bookstore your first stop.
Sure, the university bookstore probably approached you at orientation or accosted you with mailings and advertisements about how easy it is to get books from them or how they'll bundle everything you need in a nice, neat package, but don't fall for it! More often than not, bookstores located on your campus are the most expensive place to buy your textbooks.
The other problem with investing in one of the nice, pre-packaged deals many university-sponsored bookstores offer is that you'll end up with all the books listed by the professor, even if some of these are merely optional texts, to trick you into buying more than you need. You may also end up with new textbooks if you go directly with one of these packages instead of rental or used versions of the same book, which are usually cheaper. If you wind up making any purchases from the bookstore, used is almost always the way to go.
It never hurts to look into university pricing and see if they offer cheaper ways to buy or borrow a book for the semester, but don't make it your one and only stop when prepping for your semester.
DO think about buying or renting online.
One of the best places to find deals on textbooks is the web! There are a gazillion sites out there devoted to scoring deals for you and your fellow students. Try out one of these:
BetterWorld Books
Prices for new or used textbooks at BetterWorld Books are often cheaper than the university bookstore, and you support a good cause as well! With a business model similar to that of TOMS shoes, BetterWorld Books donates a book to someone in need whenever you buy or rent a textbook through them. The best part about this site? Shipping is always free, no matter where in the world you're located!
Chegg is another site that saves you money and helps a good cause at the same time. For every book you order through Chegg, the company plants a tree! Chegg specializes in renting books, but they also give you the option to purchase many of the books you rent and they have a good selection of e-books, giving you lots of options when it comes to selecting textbooks for the fall. If you decide to rent a book, Chegg gives you access to the online version (if it's available) for you to use while you wait for the physical copy to arrive in the mail. The site also lets you return the physical copy at the end of the semester for free.
Neebo is your "Complete College Outfitter!" Not only can you buy, rent, and sell textbooks (both new and used) on this site, you can also stock up on anything and everything you need for school, such as notebooks, gear to show your school spirit, backpacks, and more all at the same time, in one place. Neebo rocks because they give you free shipping on any textbooks you rent and sell!
With over 10 million titles ready to go for the fall, Textbooks.com is an easy source for finding a wide variety of books for purchase or for rent. They also have online versions of many books, giving you plenty of choices when it comes to ordering your reading material for the semester.
With options to buy, sell, and rent textbooks for a variety of different classes, BookRenter is another way to save some money on books. They'll also give you free shipping on any order over $49 and let you return any rentals for free.
Like the sites above, you can rent or buy your textbooks from Half.com. If you decide to rent, they'll also pay for your shipping when you return the books at the end of the semester. Since the site is an extension of Ebay, it's also super easy to sell any purchased books back at the end of the semester and get your cash back in only a few days after someone purchases them!

The 6 Best Haircuts for Square Faces
A mono-length bob (think Uma Thurman's character in Pulp Fiction) can be a little severe on square face shapes. Ask your stylist for Keira Knightley's take on the look—an angled cut with long pieces in front that gradually get shorter toward the back. "They elongate rather than widen the face," says Teddi Cranford, hairstylist at Sally Hershberger Downtown Salon in New York City.
Video: 10 Celeb Hair Triumphs >
"Keeping hair close to your face will soften a strong jawline," says New York hairstylist Peter Butler, who works with Claire Danes. This doesn't mean you should hide behind your hair—the best way to showcase your face without accentuating squareness is by cutting the shortest layer even with your chin. Define the layers with a styling cream like Oribe Creme for Style.
Video: Sweet Spring Cuts >
Gisele Bundchen's textured waves are her signature for a reason: Her ultralong layers are just plain sexy. Her secret? "They're not perfectly even on both sides," says Cranford. "No one's face is totally symmetrical, so matching up your layers exactly can actually have a hardening effect." For Bundchen's beachy look, spritz a texturizer like Kevin Murphy Hair Resort Spray onto damp hair and let it air dry.
Rosario Dawson's bob is a flattering illusion—her long hair is actually pinned under—but it gives her the same effect as the cut. "These soft, loose waves around the face have a diffusing effect," says Butler, who has worked with Dawson.
Too-short layers can make a square face shape seem flat or wide. Gwyneth Paltrow's soft long layers are ideal because "they spotlight her face without creating any breaks or distracting sections," says Butler. For a smooth finish, work a frizz-taming straightening balm onto damp hair before you blow-dry. We like Fekkai Coiff Contrôle Ironless Straightening Balm.
Avoid too-blunt bangs, which accentuate square jaws. Breezy, sideswept bangs like Olivia Wilde's take the edge off angular lines. "These bangs have a softer drape that immediately draws attention to the eye level," Butler adds.

For immediate release: Tuesday, May 21, 2002
Press contact: Brian Alexander with the Cuba Policy Foundation
Cell (202) 321-CUBA (2822) Desk (202) 835-0200
Tuesday, May 21, 2002, Washington – Forty-eight former members of the United States Senate have spoken out today against the U.S. embargo of Cuba. "We favor normalizing relations with Cuba," the bipartisan group of former Senators state in an open letter to President Bush and the Congress.
Citing the embargo's failure to produce reform in Cuba and the embargo's negative impact on the United States, Senator Paul Simon (D-IL 1985-1997), who spearheaded the letter initiative, said, "Our policy makes no sense. It's hurting the people of Cuba and taking jobs away from the United States. Meanwhile, it fails to bring any change in Cuba."
Former Republican Senator Malcolm Wallop of Wyoming (1977-1995) says, "This policy once may have made sense but no longer serves the purposes for which it was imposed. The interests of the Cuban people would best be served by an American presence."
"When bipartisan and widely respected American political leaders speak out against U.S. Cuba policy, it is another sign of the failure of that policy," said Ambassador Sally Grooms Cowal, president of Cuba Policy Foundation. "Coming on the heels of President Carter's trip to Cuba, the former Senators' letter is further indication that the U.S. foreign policy establishment opposes the embargo of Cuba," she added.
The signatories to the open letter to President Bush and the Congress are:
James Abourezk (D-SD), Mark Andrews (R-ND), Lloyd Bensten (D-TX), Daniel Brewster (D-MD), Dale Bumpers (D-AR), Jocelyn Birch Burdick (D-ND), Marlow Cook (R-KY), John C. Culver (D-IA), Dennis DeConcini (D-AZ), David Durenberger (R-MN), Thomas Eagleton (D-MO), J. James Exon (D-NE), Sheila Frahm (R-KS), David H. Gambrell (D-GA), Jake Garn (R-UT), Rod Grams (R-MN), Mike Gravel (D-AK), Fred R. Harris (D-OK), Mark O. Hatfield (R-OR), William Hathaway (D-ME), Walter "Dee" Huddleston (D-KY), Roger Jepsen (R-IA), J. Bennett Johnston (D-LA), Robert Krueger (D-TX), Frank R. Lautenberg (D-NJ), Harlan Mathews (D-TN), Charles McC. Mathias (R-MD), Eugene McCarthy (D-MN), John Melcher (D-MT), Howard Metzenbaum (D-OH), Carol Moseley-Braun (D-IL), Frank E. Moss (D-UT), Gaylord Nelson (D-WI), Sam Nunn (D-GA), Charles Percy (R-IL), William Proxmire (D-WI), Donald Riegle, Jr. (D-MI), James R. Sasser (D-TN), Richard Schweiker (R-PA), Paul Simon (D-IL), Alan Simpson (R-WY), Robert Stafford (R-VT), Adlai E. Stevenson (D-IL), Donald W. Stewart (D-AL), Steve Symms (R-ID), Joseph D. Tydings (D-MD), Malcolm Wallop (R-WY), Lowell Weicker, Jr. (R-CT).

'Cryptolocker' malware program holds personal info for ransom
Better Business Bureau
February 24, 2014
4480 views
1 comment
SAN ANTONIO, Texas -- Better Business Bureau (BBB) serving Central, Coastal, Southwest Texas and the Permian Basin is warning consumers of a malware program that accesses your personal computer and holds it hostage. A release by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) explains that "Cryptolocker" encrypts all your personal documents, photos and files so you can no longer open them. Con artists then demand money in order to give you access again.
The FTC reports that Cryptolocker is spread mostly through downloads by way of email. The email might look like a normal message from an authentic company, similar to a tracking notice from a shipping company. However, when you click the hyperlink in the email, Cryptolocker encrypts everything on your hard drive and in your shared folders.
Once the software has accessed all your files, a "ransom note" appears asking for payment via Bitcoin or another anonymous payment method. Once scammers have taken your files hostage, there is no other way to unlock them other than to pay. The scammer uses an encryption key as a bargaining tool, but there is no guarantee the con artist will honor their word and return access.
BBB suggests the best way to avoid getting dangerous malware on your computer is to:
�Back up your files through 'cold storage'. If you have a clean backup that the malware can't reach, you can get your files back. Back up your files with an external hard drive and keep it unplugged from your main hard drive when you're not using it.
�Research before you click. Before clicking on an unknown link or popup, take the time to research the company sending you the message by going to bbb.org first. Don't believe the message. To persuade you to click a virus-laden link or gather your personal information, con artists must earn your trust. They try to accomplish this by composing convincing-looking messages that entice people to click the advertisement.
�Protect your personal information. Don't provide your personal information or credit card information to an unknown company or website. If you're thinking of purchasing something from a website, there are various icons and software programs that indicate that security software is in place, such as "https" instead of "http," or a padlock icon at the bottom of the screen.
�Protect your computer. Installing updates to your operating system can be done for free by enabling the option on your computer's security center. Keep all anti-virus software up-to-date and make sure all security patches and updates are installed for programs that access the Internet.

Believe it or not, heavy-duty trucks play in a highly competitive segment with businesses and tradesmen looking to buy the best truck with the highest towing and hauling capacities while still being coddled in a comfortable and stylish cabin full of useful technology.
Though it's highly competitive, there are only three true players: the Chevrolet 3500 , the Ford F-450/F-550 and the Ram 4500/5500. Each truck has its strong suits and all do a darn good job of moving heavy stuff around, but the current standout in the segment is indubitably the Ram. Offering more options and ways to customize its trucks, the Ram caters more to those looking to build the exact truck to fit a specialized need.
Power comes from two iconic names in the industry, HEMI and Cummins. HEMI might be more associated with the high-horsepower performance crowd, but Chrysler 's 6.4-liter HEMI as recently made its appearance in the heavy-duty truck segment. It's high torque output combined with its variable valve timing and cylinder deactivation make it a great alternative to the more expensive diesel. However, when the loads are heavy, the Cummins is the engine to have. Generating an enormous 750 pound-feet of torque, the Ram 5500 can pull a massive 29,600-pound trailer with ease.
Moving heavy stuff around is important, but getting people to and from the job site is equally so. The Ram Chassis Cab's interior is a basic carbon copy of the near-luxurious cabin of the Ram 1500 , 2500, and 3500 trucks. Uconnect, a 7-inch TFT display, and navigation are just a few amenities the Ram boasts – and they can be had inside a truck that's fitted with a dump bed.

Part two of our look at Omar Minaya's various teams will look at the 2005 Mets relief corps. In case you missed yesterday's post, this is an objective look at the various moves made by Omar Minaya to try to find what we can learn from his moves, both good and bad. I started with the 2005 starting rotation, now I am going to take a look at Omar's first bullpen as the general manager of the Mets.
Braden Looper, Mike Stanton, Ricky Bottalico, John Franco, Heath Bell, Tyler Yates, Bartolome Fortunato, Pedro Feliciano, Vic Darensbourg
-Traded Mike Stanton to the New York Yankees for Felix Heredia.
-Allowed John Franco to sign with the Houston Astros as a free agent.
-Allowed Ricky Botallico to sign with the Milwaukee Brewers as a free
-Allowed Vic Darensbourg to sign with the Detroit Tigers as a free
-Sold Pedro Feliciano's contract to the Fukuoka Softbank Hawks.
-Re-signed Mike DeJean to a one-year contract.
-Signed Dae-Sung Koo to a one-year contract.
-Signed Roberto Hernandez to a minor league contract.
Braden Looper, Roberto Hernandez, Dae-Sung Koo, Manny Aybar, Mike Matthews, Felix Heredia, Mike DeJean
Braden Looper, Roberto Hernandez, Dae-Sung Koo, Aaron Heilman, Heath Bell, Juan Padilla, Shingo Takatsu, Kaz Ishii, Tim Hamulack
Danny Graves, Royce Ring, Jose Santiago
Mets Reliever WAR:
Aaron Heilman:Â Â Â Â Â 1.6
Roberto Hernandez:Â 0.9
Heath Bell:Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 0.7
Juan Padilla:Â Â Â Â Â Â 0.5
Manny Aybar:Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 0.1
Dae-Sung Koo:Â Â Â Â Â Â 0.1
Victor Zambrano:Â Â Â 0.1
Felix Heredia:Â Â Â Â Â 0.0
Kaz Ishii:Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 0.0
Mike Matthews:Â Â Â Â Â 0.0
Royce Ring:Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 0.0
Jose Santiago:Â Â Â Â Â 0.0
Shingo Takatsu:Â Â Â -0.2
Mike DeJean:Â Â Â Â Â Â -0.3
Tim Hamulack:Â Â Â Â Â -0.3
Danny Graves:Â Â Â Â Â -0.4
Braden Looper:Â Â Â Â -0.6
This is the first of what would become a series of bad Mets bullpens assembled by Omar Minaya. This one isn't entirely on him; he inherited Braden Looper from Jim Duquette, and Looper was by far the worst of these pitchers. It's amazing to me that Willie didn't pull him from the closer job until August, which just goes to show how far a pitcher can go with a "Proven Closer(TM)" label. Even more amazing is that the St. Louis Cardinals somehow identified Looper as a pitcher who would be useful as a starter after pitching this poorly as a reliever, and that he actually turned out to be a decent innings-eater for the Cardinals for a few years.
Here's something I'm wondering; why didn't the Mets see Aaron Heilman as a potential closer for 2006? He pitched really well in relief, and had a strong strikeout rate, which is usually what teams look for in a dominant late inning guy. I know that they hadn't completely given up on him as a starter yet, as he competed with Brian Bannister for the 5th starter job in spring training , but it seems that they could have saved themselves $10 million a year by promoting Heilman to the job and better used that money elsewhere. Heilman may not have even been a good choice for the job, but he could have probably done a passable imitation of a closer for a year or two until Heath Bell was ready to take over as closer.Â
Speaking of Bell, he was a pitcher whose results never quite matched his peripherals in New York, and I'm not entirely sure why. It is a common misconception by Mets fans that Bell stunk while he was here and only turned into a good pitcher in San Diego, but he always posted strong strikeout totals and low walk totals even as a Met. He got victimized by the longball in 2006, and it could be that Willie Randolph's refusal to give him a regular role hurt his flow, but he always showed strong potential while he was here. It's sad that he never quite realized that potential as a Met, especially considering that the team has spent over $80 million on closers since 2006.
Overall, this bullpen looks very thrown together. The only guaranteed bullpen spots going into spring training belonged to Looper, Mike DeJean, and the immortal Dae-Sung Koo. That left four spots up for grabs, with the competition consisting of a few in-house Mets candidates (Heath Bell, Royce Ring) and a collection of players signed to minor league deals (Roberto Hernandez, Juan Padilla, Mike Matthews). They did get good years out of Hernandez and Padilla, but most of the other guys they brought in did not work out, which led to them bringing in failures like Shingo Takatsu and Danny Graves, who were even worse. Even DeJean was released in June, and he was making guaranteed money.Â
This haphazard way of assembling a bullpen, by concentrating on spending top dollar on closers and hoping the rest falls into place, would become a hallmark of the Minaya Years, which I will talk more about in the weeks to come.

Satin Trumpet Gown with Sweetheart Neckline Style 9WG3477 30 31
AWSOME I tried on about 3 dresses before I tried this one on. When I did and looked in the big mirror I could not believe it. I cried so hard. I tried on a few other dresses, but when I tried It on again for my maid and matron and they JACKED me up I cried again and said YES TO THIS DRESS. February 23, 2014
So in love! This was the 3rd dress i tried on and i was really in love with it! (still am) Love the lace up back! The dress isn't super heavy and is easy to move in. I love the details along the dress which make your backside look really good! I bought the dress in the ivory version along with the champagne color details on it. I am sure the white version would have looked good but i knew the ivory version was for me! February 17, 2014
I fell in love! I tried on 3 dresses before this one. As soon as my consultant slipped it on it felt amazing. Ounce I walked out and saw myself in the mirror I started to cry and knew it was the one! January 19, 2014
Best experience! I saw this dress online and on the rack and passed over it both times thinking that I didn't like it and it wouldn't look right on me. Until the associate helping me slipped it over my head and laced it up. From the color to the fit to the wide eyed looked on my family's grinning faces I knew it was the perfect choice! My whole experience at DB was nothing less than spectacular! Brides, DO NOT skip the part where you get to try on dresses! December 30, 2013
