Battered Serena Williams expressed relief that her exit from the Australian Open was at the hands of American teenage prodigy Sloane Stephens.
The 15-time Grand Slam champ lost to 19-year-old Stephens after she suffered from a twisted ankle and a back problem early in the quarterfinals.
"I'm almost relieved that it's over, because there's only so much I felt I could do," William said. "It's been a little difficult. I've been thrown a lot of balls this week."
Her back injury, which limited her serve and movement in court, was aggravated when she chased a drop shot in the eight game of the second set.
"I couldn't really rotate after that," she explained.
For her part, Stephens kept her composure and concluded the match with a 3-6, 7-5, 6-4 win.
Williams praised the young tennis player's performance. "I think my opponent played well and was able to do a really good job," she said.

Pinching is removing the stem tips of a young plant to promote branching. Doing this avoids the need for more severe pruning later on.
Thinning involves removing whole branches back to the trunk. This may be done to open up the interior of a plant to let more light in and to increase air circulation that can cut down on plant disease. The best way to begin thinning is to begin by removing dead or diseased wood.
Shearing is leveling the surface of a shrub using hand or electric shears. This is done to maintain the desired shape of a hedge or topiary.
Rejuvenating is removal of old branches or the overall reduction of the size of a shrub to restore its original form and size. It is recommended that you do not remove more than one third of a plant at a time. Remember to remove branches from the inside of the plant as well as the outside. When rejuvenating plants with canes, such as nandina, cut back canes at various heights so that plant will have a more natural look. Conditions : Full Sun Full Sun is defined as exposure to more than 6 hours of continuous, direct sun per day.
* The key to watering is water deeply and less frequently. When watering, water
well, i.e. provide enough water to thoroughly saturate the root ball. With
in-ground plants, this means thoroughly soaking the soil until water has
penetrated to a depth of 6 to 7 inches (1' being better). With container grown plants, apply enough water to allow water to flow through the drainage holes.
* Try to water plants early in the day or later in the afternoon to conserve
water and cut down on plant stress. Do water early enough so that water has
had a chance to dry from plant leaves prior to night fall. This is paramount
if you have had fungus problems.
* Don't wait to water until plants wilt. Although some plants will recover from this,
all plants will die if they wilt too much (when they reach the permanent
wilting point).
* Consider water conservation methods such as drip irrigation, mulching, and
xeriscaping. Drip systems which slowly drip moisture directly on the root
system can be purchased at your local home and garden center. Mulches can significantly cool the root zone
and conserve moisture.
* Consider adding water-saving gels to the root zone which will hold a reserve
of water for the plant. These can make a world of difference especially under
stressful conditions. Be certain to follow label directions for their use.
A week to 10 days before planting, add 2 to 4 inches of aged manure or compost and work into the planting site to improve fertility and increase water retention and drainage. If soil composition is weak, a layer of topsoil should be considered as well. No matter if your soil is sand or clay, it can be improved by adding the same thing: organic matter. The more, the better; work deep into the soil. Prepare beds to an 18 inch deep for perennials. This will seem like a tremendous amount of work now, but will greatly pay off later. Besides, this is not something that is easily done later, once plants have been established. How-to : Pinching and Thinning Perennials Once you plant a perennial, it does not mean that you will enjoy years of maintenance-free gardening. Perennials need to be cared for just like any other plant. One thing that distinguishes perennials is that they tend to be active growers that have to be thinned out occasionally or they will loose vigor.
As perennials establish, it is important to prune them back and thin them out occasionally. This will prevent them from completely taking over an area to the exclusion of other plants, and also will increase air circulation thereby reducing the incidence of diseases like botrytis and powdery mildew.
Many species also flower abundantly and produce ample seed. As blooms fade it is advisable to deadhead your plant; that is, to remove spent flowers before they form seed. This will prevent your plants from seeding all over the garden and will conserve the considerable energy it takes the plant to produce seed.
As perennials mature, they may form a dense root mass that eventually leads to a less vigorous plant. It is advisable to occasionally thin out a stand of such perennials. By dividing the root system, you can make new plants to plant in another area of the garden or give away. Also root pruning will stimulate new growth and rejuvenate the plant. Most perennials may be successfully divided in either spring or fall. Do a little homework; some perennials do have a preference.
Rhizoctonia is a fungus that is found in most soils and enters the plant
through the roots or the stem at soil level.
Prevention and Control: First of all, do not overwater and if you suspect
Rhizoctonia may be your problem, decrease watering. If a plant is too far gone
(all the leaves from the bottom up are wilted), remove it. If your plant is in a container, discard the soil too.
Wash the pot with a 1 part bleach to 9 parts water solution.
Fungicides can be used, according to label directions. Consult a professional for a legal recommendation of what fungicide to use.
Pest : Thrips Thrips are small, winged insects that attack many types of plants and
thrive in hot, dry conditions (like heated houses). They can multiply quickly
as a female can lay up to 300 eggs in a life span of 45 days without mating.
Most of the damage to plants is caused by the young larvae which feed on tender
leaf and flower tissue. This leads to distorted growth, injured flower petals
and premature flower drop. Thrips also can transmit many harmful plant viruses.
Prevention and Control: keep weeds down and use screening on windows to
keep them out. Remove or discard infested plants, keep them away from
non-infested plants. Trap with yellow sticky cards or take advantage of
natural enemies such as predatory mites. Sometimes a good steady shower of
water will wash them off the plant. Consult your local garden center professional or county Cooperative extension office for legal chemical recommendations. Pest : Spider Mites Spider mites are small, 8 legged, spider-like creatures which thrive in
hot, dry conditions (like heated houses). Spider mites feed with piercing
mouth parts, which cause plants to appear yellow and stippled. Leaf drop and plant death can occur with heavy infestations. Spider mites can multiply
quickly, as a female can lay up to 200 eggs in a life span of 30 days. They
also produce a web which can cover infested leaves and flowers.
Prevention and Control: Keep weeds down and remove infested plants. Dry
air seems to worsen the problem, so make sure plants are regularly watered,
especially those preferring high humidity such as tropicals, citrus, or tomatoes. Always check new plants prior to bringing them home from the garden center or nursery. Take advantage of natural enemies such as ladybug larvae. If a miticide is recommended by your local garden center professional or county Cooperative Extension office, read and follow all label directions. Concentrate your efforts on the undersides of the leaves as that is where spider mites generally live. Diseases : Pythium and Phytophtora Root Rot Rot Rot, Pythium or Phytophthora occurs when soil
moisture levels are excessively high and fungal spores present in the soil, come
in contact with the susceptible plant. The base of stems discolor and shrink,
and leaves further up the stalk wilt and die. Leaves near base are affected
first. The roots will turn black and rot or break. This fungi can be introduced
by using unsterilized soil mix or contaminated water.
Prevention and Control Remove affected plants and their roots, and discard surrounding soil. Replace with plants that are not susceptible, and only use fresh, sterilized soil mix. Hold back on fertilizing too. Try not to
over water plants and make sure that soil is well drained prior to planting.
This fungus is not treatable by chemicals.
Rhizoctonia Root and Stem Rot symptoms look similar to Pythium Root Rot, but the Rhizoctonia fungus seems to thrive in well drained soils. Fungi : Leaf Spots Leaf spots are caused by fungi or bacteria. Brown or black spots and patches may be either ragged or circular, with a water soaked or yellow-edged appearance. Insects, rain, dirty garden tools, or even people can help its spread.
Prevention and Control: Remove infected leaves when the plant is dry. Leaves that collect around the base of the plant should be raked up and disposed of. Avoid overhead irrigation if possible; water should be directed at soil level. For fungal leaf spots, use a recommended fungicide according to label directions.
For best results, always cut flowers early in the morning, preferably before dew has had a chance to dry. Always make cuts with a sharp knife or pruners and plunge flowers or foliage into a bucket of water. Store in a cool place until you are ready to work with them, this will keep flowers from opening. Always re-cut stems and change water frequently. Washing vases or containers to rid of existing bacteria helps increase their life, as well. Glossary : Border Plant A border plant is one which looks especially nice when used next to
other plants in a border. Borders are different from hedges in that they are
not clipped. Borders are loose and billowy, often dotted with deciduous flowering shrubs. For best effect, mass smaller plants in groups of 3, 5, 7, or 9. Larger plants may stand alone, or if room permits, group several layers of plants for a dramatic impact. Borders are nice because they define property lines and can screen out bad views and offer seasonal color. Many gardeners use the border to add year round color and interest to the garden. Conditions : Fall Color Fall color is the result of trees or shrubs changing colors according to complex chemical formulas present in their leaves. Depending on how much iron, magnesium, phosphorus, or sodium is in the plant, and the acidity of the chemicals in the leaves, leaves might turn amber, gold, red, orange or just fade from green to brown. Scarlet oaks, red maples and sumacs, for instance, have a slightly acidic sap, which causes the leaves to turn bright red. The leaves of some varieties of ash, growing in areas where limestone is present, will turn a regal purplish-blue.
Although many people believe that cooler temperatures are responsible for the color change, the weather has nothing to do with it at all. As the days grow shorter and the nights longer, a chemical clock inside the trees starts up, releasing a hormone which restricts the flow of sap to each leaf. As fall progresses, the sap flow slows and chlorophyll, the chemical that gives the leaves their green color in the spring and summer, disappears. The residual sap becomes more concentrated as it dries, creating the colors of fall. Glossary : Sandy Loam Sandy Loam refers to a soil that drains well, with excellent air space, and evenly crumbled texture when squeezed in the hand. A good workable garden soil that benefits from added fertilizer and proper watering. Dark gray to gray-brown in color. Glossary : Loam Loam is the ideal soil, having the perfect balance between particle size, air space, organic matter and water holding capacity. It forms a nice ball when squeezed in the palm of the hand, but crumbles easily when lightly tapped with a finger. Rich color ranges between gray brown to almost black. Glossary : Clayey Loam Clayey loam refers to a soil that retains moisture well, without having a drainage problem. Fertility is high and texture good. Easily forms a ball when squeezed in the hand, and then crumbles easily with a quick tap of the finger. Considered an ideal soil. Usually a rich brown color. Glossary : Annual An annual is any plant that completes its life cycle in one growing season. Glossary : Bulbs A bulb is a modified, underground stem. Glossary : Perennial Perennial: traditionally a non-woody plant that lives for two or more growing seasons. Glossary : pH pH, means the potential of Hydrogen, is the measure of alkalinity or acidity. In horticulture, pH refers to the pH of soil. The scale measures from 0, most acid, to 14, most alkaline. Seven is neutral. Most plants prefer a range between 5.5 and about 6.7, an acid range, but there are plenty of other plants that like soil more alkaline, or above 7. A pH of 7 is where the plant can most easily absorb the most nutrients in the soil. Some plants prefer more or less of certain nutrients, and therefore do better at a certain pH. Glossary : Heat Zone The 12 zones of the AHS Heat Zone map indicate the average number of days each year that a given region experiences ""heat days"" or temperatures over 86 degrees F(30 degrees Celsius). That is the point at which plants begin suffering physiological damage from heat. The zones range from Zone 1 (less than one heat day) to Zone 12 (more than 210 heat days). The AHS Heat Zone, which deals with heat tolerance, should not be confused with the USDA Hardiness Zone system which deals with cold tolerance. For example: Seattle, Washington has a USDA Hardiness Zone of 8, the same as Charleston, South Carolina; however Seattle's Heat Zone is 2 where Charleston's Heat Zone is 11. What this says is that winter temperature in the two cities may be similar, but because Charleston has significantly warmer weather for a longer period of time, plant selection based on heat tolerance is a factor to consider. Glossary : Plant Characteristics Plant characteristics define the plant, enabling a search that finds specific types of plants such as bulbs, trees, shrubs, grass, perennials, etc. Glossary : Flower Characteristics Flower characteristics can vary greatly and may help you decide on a ""look or
feel"" for your garden. If you're looking for fragrance or large, showy flowers,
click these boxes and possibilities that fit your cultural conditions will be
shown. If you have no preference, leave boxes unchecked to return a greater
number of possibilities. Glossary : Foliage Characteristics By searching foliage characteristics, you will have the opportunity to look
for foliage with distinguishable features such as variegated leaves, aromatic
foliage, or unusual texture, color or shape. This field will be most helpful to you if
you are looking for accent plants. If you have no preference, leave this
field blank to return a larger selection of plants. Glossary : Soil Types A soil type is defined by granule size, drainage, and amount of organic material
in the soil. The three main soil types are sand, loam and clay. Sand has the
largest particle size, no organic matter, little to no fertility, and drains
rapidly. Clay, at the opposite end of the spectrum, has the smallest particle
size, can be rich in organic matter, fertility and moisture, but is often
unworkable because particles are held together too tightly, resulting in poor
drainage when wet, or is brick-like when dry. The optimum soil type is loam,
which is the happy median between sand and clay: It is high in organic matter,
nutrient-rich, and has the perfect water holding capacity.
You will often
hear loam referred to as a sandy loam (having more sand, yet still plenty of
organic matter) or a clay loam (heavier on the clay, yet workable with good
drainage.) The addition of organic matter to either sand or clay will result
in a loamy soil. Still not sure if your soil is a sand, clay, or loam? Try
this simple test. Squeeze a handfull of slightly moist, not wet, soil in your
hand. If it forms a tight ball and does not fall apart when gently tapped
with a finger, your soil is more than likely clay. If soil does not form a
ball or crumbles before it is tapped, it is sand to very sandy loam. If soil forms a
ball, then crumbles readily when lightly tapped, it's a loam. Several quick, light
taps could mean a clay loam. How-to : Getting the Most Out of Cut Flowers Cut flowers bring the garden into your home. While some cut flowers have a long vase life, most are highly perishable. How cut flowers are treated when you first bring them home can significantly increase how long they last.
The most important thing to consider is getting sufficient water taken up into the cut stem. Insufficient water can result in wilting and short-lived flowers. Bent neck of roses, where the flower head droops, is the result of poor water uptake. To maximize water uptake, first re-cut the stems at an angle so that the vascular system (the ""plumbing"" of the stem) is clear. Next immerse the cut stems in warm water.
Remember when the flower is cut, it is cut off from its food supply. Once water is taken care of, food is the resource that will run out next. The plants stems naturally feed the flowers with sugars. If you add a bit of sugar (1 tsp.) to the vase water, this will help feed the flower stems and extend their vase life.
Bacteria will build up in vase water and eventually clog up the stem so the flower cannot take up water. To prevent this, change the vase water frequently and make a new cut in the stems every few days.
Floral preservatives, available from florists, contain sugars, acids and bacteriacides that can extend cut flower life. These come in small packets and are generally available where cut flowers are sold. If used properly, these can extend the vase life of some cut flowers 2 to 3 times when compared with just plain water in the vase. Glossary : Viruses Viruses, which are smaller than bacteria, are not living and do not replicate on their own. They must rely on the cellular mechanisms of their hosts to replicate. Because this greatly disrupts the cell's functionality, outward signs of a viral infection result in a plant disease with symptoms such as abnormal or stunted growth, damaged fruit, discolorations or spots.
Prevention and Control: Keep virus carriers such as aphids, leafhoppers, and thrips under control. These plant feeding insects spread viruses. Viruses can also be introduced by infected pollen or through plant openings (as when pruning). Begin by keeping the pathogen out of your garden. New plants should be checked, as well as tools and existing plants. Use only certified seed that is deemed disease-free. Plant only resistant varieties and create a discouraging environment by rotating crops, not planting closely related plants in the same area every year. Glossary : Fertilize Fertilize just before new growth begins with a complete fertilizer.

How is Andre Bynum still out of shape? All good questions, all good questions.
Great Cp3 flop lol.
Keep up the defense pressure, Clippers! 46 seconds to go.
Too bad Big Baby isn't named Andre, then his nickname could be Andre 3000 Pounds.
this is a game we easily could have lost, we never really seemed to get into an offensive rhythm. Luckily our defense stepped up and they missed some easy shots, but we can't get away with play like this in the playoffs. Hope picaso's ok
Harden always have a hard time eveytime they face the Clips.
And that is the LAW!!!!!!!
Harden's defense has been exposed by every player in the NBA.
That's great Beverley fouled out.
Rockets just can't really play against us
Wow, this is a great win!!!!
Excellent grind-it-out win... we really needed that!
This is an awesome win.
But hold the phone
OLIVIA WILDE is a CLIPPERS fan?????
Since when????
I want to know how many minutes our starters played tonight. Collison included.
Now its not that we want Granger. We need him. Jamal hopefully isn't too serious just took him out for precaution. With Jamal down we might need all the Offense we can get and Granger could give us some. We still have a spot so maybe Vujacic returns
Great Win! Glad they stepped up in a collective effort since Jamal went down.
Clippers don't have a game until Saturday. I hope that's enough time for Jamal to recover and be able to play then.
"James Harden and the Rockets couldn't top L.A."
Nice going ESPN.
Well your statement of not beating the good teams has fallen lol. OKC and Houston in one week lol. Good Enough
WoW a Backup big off the Bench that plays Defense and they hold a team under 100, WHO KNEW!!!...... OH WAIT CLIPPERS NATION DID.
Great job by DC Guarding Harden and giving him the business on the other end, Since Everybody played (besides J.J.), I guess we can truly call this a "Good Team Win".
Glen Davis in limited minutes showed how important of a pick up he is going to be. Strong rebounding and good defense that reminded me somewhat of fat Odom (which was a better defender than when he slimmed down) and with a better offensive game I'm excited.
Bandwagon or just being there cause its cool like many celebrities probably.
with Glen Davis off the bench, I just feel a sense of relief. Haha.
Dudley has been disappointing, but he is not Ryan Gomes for sure. Every once in a while he'll have a solid contribution and affect the game like he did tonight. Gomes never contributed a thing on the floor.
In the few minutes that Glen Davis played, he's already shown that he is going to be a contributing asset to the team.
Olivia Wilde and Jason Sudeikis go to Knicks games also. They be hoppin' those wagons.
lol OKC losing to the Cavs at home took a little zest away for me and losing 3 straight and this being a back to back for Houston was a good matchup. With all that said its great this team is taking care of business and not throwing away games like against a depleted Spurs team. This was a huge win going forward Davis will be a big bonus on both ends.
DJ getting the steal, dribbling across half-court and delivering the perfect bounce pass... I was like...
Big Bay be bay beh!!! -notorious BiG
Tough to hop on that Knicks wagon when it only has one wheel.
I know Olivia... she is truly a c*nt. But Jason might be cool.
Doc made a great point getting hurt without contact usually a bad sign luckily team has some days off. Granger and a guard on ten day should be on the radar. Grover and Bullock need to step it up.
She seems like she'd be pretty c*nty. Sadly though, the general rule is if you are a solid 10 you're allowed to be whatever you want.
She's not a "10" in real life... trust me.
She's been in many clippers game. They've showed her in the home game in the jumbotron.
You've met her? Different guys different taste.
I miss Jessica Alba... now SHE'S a "10".
Dudley is moving way better than he was at the start of the year, his shot has been all over the place lately, but his rebounding and defense have improved and he's less passive on offense.
He also looked trimmer tonight, but that might just be because he was standing next to Davis.
Best case scenario I think is he plays in Suns game.
Yeah... my taste is girls that don't have the bodies of 12-year-old-boys and don't f*ck their way up from rich guys to famous guys.
But to each his own.
Miss her too I think she was more here to support her friend BD like Katie Holmes. Maybe they will come through when Baron visits to watch games.
Huge win!!!!
LOL, Olivia Wilde, Man honestly sometimes she looks like a 8 to me and sometimes she looks like a Hard 6. I'm just confused by her Forehead.....
The fact that people are talking about Olivia Wilde shows what a great game this was!
Crawford deserves the rest anyway at his age give him the recharge.
Yeah... It's almost worth signing Baron to have Jessica Alba back.
Actually, I used to know Katie too... and for the record, she was very sweet. But that was before Tom. I don't know her anymore... because I'm not a Scientologist.
If we had a healthy team most of the season we would be in first place In the west for sure.
Hopefully crawfords injury is not too serious.
We definitely need granger to sign with us.
Please cut the crap. If the Spur's entire roster weren't so beat up, they'd have an even better record. If Westbrook wasn't injuried for 1/3 of the season, Thunder would be even better.
Is jamal ok?

An email from Deceased Online announcing the release of approximately 32,000 burial records and 143,000 cremation records from Cambridge City Cemetery also hints at a forthcoming record release.
According to the email "…. the UK's biggest cemetery (by burials) is coming to http://www.deceasedonline.com very soon."
My immediate thought was Brookwood Cemetery, I checked the Brookwood website and they claim it is "the largest cemetery in Britain and is probably the largest in Western Europe."
I could be jumping to conclusions here, but it sounds to me as if the Brookwood Cemetery Records are going to be available online later this year. The significance is that Brookwood was the main burial place for Londoners after 1854.
Brookwood Cemetery near Woking, Surrey was opened in 1854, and once boasted two railway stations receiving trains from it's own railway terminus in London. According to their website there have been over 235,000 burials since 1854.
If my guess is correct the release of this database should elevate Deceased Online to the 'A' list British genealogy websites. Watch this space!
UPDATED 26/02/2010: I spoke to a respresentative from Deceased Online today, and sadly it is not Brookwood they are talking about, not yet anyway.

Animas River Stakeholders Group members will hear reports and updates on mine-waste cleanup and water quality at their meeting Thursday in Silverton.
But the agenda lists nothing about a topic dear to their hearts � ironclad assurance that they can�t be dragged into court down the road for taking on projects that involve direct water-quality improvement projects in a San Juan County historic mining district.
Nat Miullo, revitalization and clean-energy adviser in Environmental Protection Agency Region 8, said the stakeholders know there�s no absolute certainty in third-party lawsuits.
�But we�re very comfortable in being able to give assurances that we can craft an administrative order that will help with long-term protection,� Miullo said.
The stakeholders, since they formed in 1994, have completed at least a dozen mine-waste projects around Silverton. But the work involved burying or removing heaps of tailings and other waste, so rain and melting snow can�t leach toxic metals into creeks and ultimately into the Animas River.
But they haven�t treated toxic water draining from abandoned mines because good Samaritans, as volunteer organizations are known, would be liable under federal environmental law for any damages or residual waste.
In December, the EPA reinterpreted its policy, easing restrictions. Under the new guidelines, good Samaritans don�t need a Clean Water Act permit during or after a project. They also can be exempt from responsibility for point-source pollution � heavy-metal crud coming from a specific place such as a mine shaft.
Still, stakeholders are wary.
�The main point is the EPA definition of a good Samaritan as a nonoperator (of a mine),� said Peter Butler, one of three coordinators of the group. �The guidance is not regulation. It�s not law.
�It would seem hard to consider anyone who does maintenance on a mine after cleanup to be a non-operator,� Butler said. �It�s hard to know the motives of a third-party lawsuit. It could be an effort to gain leverage for some other purpose.�
An understanding or agreement with the EPA on the definition of a nonoperator isn�t a good defense in a trial, Butler said.
Treating or eliminating the drainage of four mines in the Gladstone area north of Silverton as the stakeholders want to do, would go a long way to improve water quality.
Four mines, the Sunnyside, Red and Bonita, Gold King No. 7 and Mogul, drain up to 800 gallons a minute of iron, zinc, copper, lead, cadmium, mercury and manganese into Cement Creek, a tributary to the Animas River,
Bill Simon, another stakeholder coordinator, said all action is on hold.
�We�re waiting to see if the Colorado Division of Reclamation Mining and Safety and the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment will take on site maintenance,� Simon said. �The would let us off the hook.�
Bruce Stover, director of active and inactive mines at the Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety, said the office is talking to the EPA about participation with good Samaritans in mine cleanup.
�It�s a step forward in the right direction to provide a level of comfort for good Samaritans,� Stover said. �But it may have to be tested in a court of law.�
Paul Frohardt, administrator of the Colorado Water Quality Control Commission, is of a similar mind.
�I think the EPA recognizes this isn�t a clear legal opinion,� he said. �They may be looking for mechanisms to allow some projects.�
Frohardt said a possible solution would be to allow an active cleanup permit to remain in effect.
Miullo said the agency is open to proposals.
�We�re confident that there are mechanisms within this guidance to help good Samaritans qualify to move forward and do good work,� Miullo said.
At one time, it was feared the EPA would designate all of San Juan County a Superfund site and direct environmental cleanup itself. But given community opposition and the remediation projects of stakeholders, the agency backed off last year in favor of a collaborative approach.
Sen. Mark Udall, D-Colo., who pushed the EPA to make it easier for good Samaritans to carry out cleanup projects without fear of legal attacks, said in an email statement that he�s keeping his eye on the situation.
�At my request and urging, the EPA developed a new policy last year designed to expand the ability of good Samaritans to clean up abandoned mines in Colorado by limiting the risk they�d get sucked into lawsuits,� Udall said. �I am confident this new policy gives good Samaritans the assurances they need to clean up additional abandoned mine sites.
�However, I plan to stay in contact with good Samaritan groups to evaluate the effectiveness of this new policy and to see if they need additional legal assurances to do their work.�

Former Durango resident Jo Ann T. Mickelson died Monday, March 4, 2013, in Albuquerque. She was 87.
Mrs. Mickelson was born to Lester and Anna Matney on Sept. 30, 1925, in Albuquerque. She was one of four children.
She went to school in both Albuquerque and Los Lunas, N.M. After graduating from high school, she began working at the Santa Fe Railroad.
On July 4, 1947, she married Cecil Mickelson in Albuquerque. The couple soon moved to Durango, where they began making jewelry together. They owned and operated Mickelson Jewelry.
In 1974, the Mickelson family moved to Bisbee, Ariz., where they mined turquoise. They returned to Durango in 1976.
Mrs. Mickelson moved to Albuquerque about five years ago to live with her daughter and son-in-law, Shauna and Javier Hernandez.
�Jo Ann�s life was completely dedicated to her husband and children,� her family said. �She was very active in her church and held various positions within the church.�
Mrs. Mickelson was preceded in death by her husband, Cecil Mickelson; and children Melody Mickelson, Cecil Narlin Mickelson, Joel Lester Mickelson, Dee Ann Barker and Peter Quinn Mickelson.
She is survived by her daughter Shauna Hernandez of Albuquerque; 16 grandchildren; 28 great-grandchildren; and two great-great-grandchildren.
A viewing will be held from 1 to 1:45 p.m. Saturday, March 9, 2013, at Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Stakehouse in Durango, 2 Hilltop Circle. A funeral will take place at 2 p.m., also Saturday at the stakehouse. Brother Thomas Gurr will officiate.
Memorial contributions may be made to the Alzheimer�s Association, 701 Camino del Rio, Suite 115A, Durango, CO 81301.

A special meeting will take place on Tuesday for Aiken County Council to gather resident feedback on Project Jackson.
The public hearing begins at 6 p.m. in Aiken Technical College's auditorium. Council may conduct a second reading on an item to extend its participation in North Augusta's Tax Incremental Financing agreement or often called the TIF. Council approved the first reading on its consent agenda in August.
Project Jackson is a proposal for major economic development along North Augusta's waterfront to include a baseball stadium, convention center and more.
The meeting is being held in the Aiken Tech auditorium because of the anticipation of a large crowd. At the last Aiken County Council meeting in which Project Jackson was discussed, the chambers were packed. Even before the meeting started, only standing room was available.
In order to generate the needed revenue for its investment, North Augusta would collect on future property tax revenue over and above the frozen assessed value of property in the TIF district.
Approval of Aiken County's participation in the financing plan is the next step to move the proposal forward.
The Aiken County Board of Education has already agreed to a limited role in funding Project Jackson through the North Augusta TIF plan.
Council turned down the proposal when it was first presented in the spring. One issue that was a deciding factor for some Council members was the fact that the land values were frozen in 1996 when the existing TIF district was created. Council wanted the values to reflect 2012 levels.
The numbers were adjusted to 2012 land values by North Augusta officials.
If the ordinance moves forward on Tuesday, the third reading will be held during the regular meeting on Sept. 17.
Amy Banton is the County reporter for the Aiken Standard and has been with the publication since May 2010. She is a native of Rustburg, Va. and a graduate of Randolph-Macon Woman's College.

Despite the damp, cold weather, residents still came out to see the Battle of Aiken re-enactment.
The 18th annual Battle of Aiken started Saturday, and the rain didn't put too much of a damper on the scheduled events.
"The weather has not cooperated completely but we still have people coming out and enjoying it," said Wayne Jones, Sons of Confederate Veterans Brigadier General Barnard E. Bee Camp commander. "History is being taught at the Battle of Aiken."
The event marks the 148th anniversary of this Civil War battle that took place in Aiken in early February of 1865.
A class from Bob Jones Academy in Greenville attended the event for some extra credit after completing a lesson about the Civil War. Student Heather Bright said this was a fun way to learn what life was like back then.
"It's pretty cool," said Bright. "It's better than just sitting in class."
The weather didn't affect a father-son tradition of six years. Todd Tharpe of North Augusta and his son, Bronson, didn't mind the cool temperatures and drizzling rain.
"My son and I do this every year," Tharpe said. "We look forward to it like Christmas."
The re-enactors were not too bothered by the weather either as many huddled around fires and kept warm in their heavy period attire.
"We're just a little wet, a little cool," said civilian re-enactor Ericha Floyd of Manning.
Floyd and her husband Gene have participated in the Battle of Aiken for about five years and said they wouldn't let something like a little rain keep them from coming. Ericha Floyd said that they've developed some strong friendships and it's nice to get away from hustle of the 21st century for a while.
For the Youngs, historic re-enacting is a family affair. Amanda Young, her husband Joey, who is a chaplain for the event, and their two children Hannah and Isaac, have been camping out since Thursday but were all in good spirits.
"We're damp but we're good," said Amanda Young. "We have a fire going and hopefully the sun will come out tomorrow."
The forecast is a bit brighter for today with the temperatures in the mid to high 60s.
The Battle continues today and the gates will open at 8:30 a.m. Part two of the battle will start at 2:30 p.m.
Tickets can only be purchased at the gate and are $10 for those 13 and older; $5 for those between the ages of 6 and 12 and no admission charge for children 5 and younger. Pets and coolers are not allowed at the event. Parking is first come, first serve. The Battle of Aiken site is located at 1210 Powell Pond Road in Aiken.

One game at a time. Each game is it's own story
There you go. This is going 7.
No matter what we had to win 2. We got our crowd behind us and hopefully some extra motivation to take these guys down. If we can defend KD half as well as we did last game (and let's be honest, how many of his 18+ FT's did he actually deserve?), and assume Westbrook is going to stop hitting his three ball, we are golden. Clippers are the stronger team, no doubt. Can't live in the past.
Can't even think about game 7. One game at a time. Let's win tomorrow. I'm a negative Nancy but I just have a funny feeling about this (in a good way)
Yep, OGAAT (one game at a time).
Don't expect any calls so 5 vs 8, but I still think we can pull this win off then come game 7 anything is possible.
IMO, it's damn near a guarantee that Pierce is a Clipper next year.... not that I particularly want him, because he'll just be another Gomes, Caron or Dudley at this point.
Rep for finally turning it around and being positive!!
IMO, it's damn near a guarantee that Pierce is a Clipper next year.... not that I particularly want him, because he'll just be another Gomes, Caron or Dudley at this point.
If Marion wants to take pay cut I'd rather have him.
Marion would be a great consolation prize if we can't get Ariza.
Guys we will be lucky if we can sign D leaguers - you are forgetting that players won't come here with this sterling stuff going on. And who knows how long this will drag on
I want to hear Staples going nuts all night. I think they are going to come out with some crazy intensity and focus, and I'm saying now this one will be a pretty easy win. Go Clips!
Hopefully! If I could go, I would bring signs about how much the NBA loves okc and how the refs cheated us.
Sterling's done and getting voted out, period.
When he files a lawsuit - the sale will be put on hold. That can go on for years
Not satisfied with just a W, I want Hollins and his elbows to have an impact if you catch my drift. They get away with grabbing and punching testicles, let's see what Ryan can get away with.
I think the Demons of last game will still be in CP's head so the rest of the team really needs to step it up. Especially Blake and DJ.
I think Chris will be fired up.
Well DJ has to play more than 20 minutes to step up. He would play more if the refs don't call him for fouls on flops.
There is zero chance any lawsuit drags on just for the simple fact that any judge worth their salt will laugh him out of court because he agreed to the moral/ethics contracts and league constitution. Total non-starter. It also doesn't help Donald that he's asked around and been turned down by numerous high-profile law firms who want nothing to do with him.
He is gone, period.
I think he and Shelly are gone but it's not going to be as quick and easy as you think.
Even if he doesn't get laughed out of court, I could see the NBA settling with Donald just to make him and his hag wife go away.
Blake likes it when the focus is not entirely on him. He will play loose and dominate tomorrow
Tony Parker suffered an injury (hamstring) and will not return to the game tonight. If he is hampered in any way going forward, Spurs are really vulnerable. Clippers need to win this series and be at the Western Conference Finals against the Spurs!
Time to win Game 6 and 7!
He'll be looking for redemption. I think he dominates tomorrow
The reason we will finally get decent reffing Thursday can be spelled with three letters -- D.O.C.
During this post season, I was wondering why Doc bit his tongue at the awful, biased officiating. I was hoping he would do a Phil Jackson and call them out. But now I see the method in his madness. He waited for the right time, after all the fixing, all the bad calls and all the obvious thievery until he had the moral authority to challenge the refs. He waited until his diatribe would not be called "sour grapes." Doc was right -- and he put the NBA on notice -- no more outright stealing of games.
And I think we will see the more traditional home-court reffing from now on -- the kind I grew up with until this new "star-o-centric" reffing.
Given what I call "passive reffing" -- the type that does not change the total outcome of the game -- we will win this series.
Clippers man handled okc all last game, shouldn't be any different. No one had a career night, and that's the way it should. We have so much firepower if everyone finds ways to contribute we can easily beat okc again
When will we see Blake on Durant for a stretch of time? That has worked, is Doc saving it for game 7?
Best believe OKC will try to finish us with the news of Parker. We can't let that happen!
They weren't scared of spurs anyway
I'm slipping into despair again. Was all
Positive and now I'm feeling like this hill is too steep.
Okc is tough out
The clippers need to continue to attack OKC and not worry about the the clock. So far OKC hasn't shown they can control the Clippers offense.
Who are you, and what have you done with ClippersDA?
Okc is tough out
Never mind. He's back.
I go back and forth. I feel good and then I remember last night and become depressed. I think we can win two and then I remember the refs won't let it happen
Sorry for the anger issues, but eff that!! Eff the refs and eff OKC!!!! Clips by 7 tomorrow!! I need my damn fighting spirit engaged and enraged!
I've got a bad feeling about this game guys. The Thunder practically man-handled us last game at Staples, then collapsed, they beat themselves. I've got a feeling they'll come out strong with tons of confidence. It also seems that C. Paul is broken from last night's game! He looked like his dog was stolen in the post game press conference. What do you guys think?
We don't have to win two. Like you said, one game at a time. We put a beating on them tomorrow then let them stew for a couple of days remembering how they would be fishing already if they hadn't been bailed out.
But don't you think last game, aside from final minute collapse was the most favorable the conditions will be to win? Role players sucked and Durant was cold. We played great. And we lost.
I think you're the same troll I just banned on the other thread. Get a life, you product of sibling coitus.
Banned... again.
Imagine if this was a close out game to go to our 1st ever WCF Still crushed and trying to remain positive, but it's beyond bullshit how much favoritism OKC has received throughout the playoffs.
Think you're trolling or if your not, you shouldn't watch the game.
Blake Doc and CP3 just looked so... Composed...Poised. They're definitely ready for tomorrow. Can't dwell on the past. Doc just gave me some peace cause last night I couldn't sleep, you believe that?! I could not damn well sleep after such a clusterf**k. Just replayed over and over in my head... Just.......UGH! But then I listened to Doc today We ain't going down swinging. We swinging alright, and swinging hard, but we only gonna go Forward!
DJ played half his normal minutes and played tentatively due to the foul trouble. Blake and CP had pretty average nights, scoring wise. Matter of fact, we scored less that our season average. Our defense is why we held them to 88 points until we shot OURSELVES in the foot. That defense is a lot easier to duplicate that the amazing offensive blowout from game 1... especially at home.
Besides, Durant may have shot like sh*t, but Westbrook isn't going to have another night like that.
No way we lose this game. Especially after what happened in game 5. We're coming out hungry for a win tomorrow. We're fighting for our lives. We'll be the more desperate team.
I feel a lot better after watching Doc talk after practice today. He was surprisingly positive after last night. No need to keep looking back to last night. Let's move on and force game 7. We've already proven that we can win in OKC. No one on this team should be afraid of game 7 on the road. This team is ready. Can't wait for tomorrow.
I was going to say "We'll have vengeance tomorrow," but that doesn't sound like we've moved on then haha. Let's just play like there's no tomorrow.
We shall see. I hope so.
I just hope we get the same production or even better from our SF's.
There are two main things I've learned about this team this season: 1) We never like to make things easy. 2) You can never count us out.
Unfortunately, last night we displayed more of the former. We should have executed down the stretch and finished that game. We all know what happened. Luckily for us, this team is about to show everyone the latter. There were multiple games this season, including game 7 of round 1 and game 4 of this series where it looked as if we going to lose, but we kept fighting and we found a way to win.
After game 4 against GSW no one really knew what to expect. The team seemed distracted and it seemed like the Sterling controversy would either tear this team apart or bring us together. More people seemed to believe this would be a negative for the team. It clearly brought us together. In the past few seasons, this team would collapse when we faced adversity, but not this season. Each time people start to count us out, we come right back show everyone why we're contenders.
Get ready for a fun couple of games. This team is about shock the world, people!
^repped! No team has ever had to deal with the adversity that this team has faced... and yet they keep bouncing back. Let's go Clippers!
as the song goes. TOOOOONIIIIIIIGHHHHHHHTTTTTT WEEEE ARREEEEE ONNNNNNEEEEEE. So lets set the word on fire. We can burn brighter than the sun.
Corny I know.

6/7 – Yankees vs. Royals
Last night was a rough one, as the Yankees failed to capitalize on opportunities and let Darrell Rasner's gutty effort – a career-high eight innings and 118 pitches, a season-high for any Yankee starter – go by the boards.
Rasner scattered nine hits and used a lot of those pitches early, but he really seemed determined to hang on long enough to get a win. If Jason Giambi doesn't get rung up on a 3-2 pitch that ended the eighth inning, maybe we're talking about Rasner's record at 4-2 rather than 3-3.
Before the game, we were all herded into the public relations office for a conference call with the Yankees' first-round pick, Gerrit Cole. If there was any doubt about how young Cole really is – he's 17 – you knew it right away when he started rattling off the names of his favorite Yankees players. Derek Jeter. Bernie Williams. Paul O'Neill. Aaron Boone?
Yankees vice president of scouting Damon Oppenheimer says that he's pleased with the 51 players the team drafted to replenish the system. The dividends from this draft are a few years down the road, but there's no better examples than Phil Hughes (2004), Joba Chamberlain (2006) and Ian Kennedy (2006). It's not as far off as it may seem.

The Yanks are Gies's 5th organization his career. He's a 31-year old career minor leaguer. Had 9 1/3 IP with a 4.82 with the Giants last season. The only innings he has pitched in his career at the major league level. He had a fluke-like season in the minors this year. I saw him pitch last season, and he really isn't much. Lets not get excited about this guy like we got excited about Traber, and Phillips, and Patterson, and Hawkins.
I'm not sure I would rate Cashman as high as 4th best manager in baseball. Like I have said before, it helps to have the Yankees resources to work with, I doubt he can be nearly as good with teams in small markets like Oakland, Kansas City, or Pittsburgh. I don't like Epstein in any way, shape or form. I merely pointed out his history of success compared to Cashman as he has done a far better job than Cashman has overall. I'm still not convinced about Colon, I think he will still flame out before the end of the season. I have to disagree with you about the pitchers. Yes, young pitchers can be fragile mentally, but that's why it's so important to develop mental toughness. Most today's best pitchers are mentally tough. If young pitchers don't have mental toughness then they won't make it at all. The only way for pitchers to learn to pitch in the majors, and become successful is by pitching in the majors regardless of how many lumps they will take. The will never learn that in the minors. One other thing, the A's don't go after older, pitchers who are past their prime, it's not part of their practice. You would have to go back to the mid-90's to see them with that type of pitcher on their roster. that's how good their minor league system has been. Thanks to Beane they have been relying on their young, home-grown pitchers for the most part, and they have proven to be very good.
our schedule this month is a joke. This better be the month for us to bounce back. we're playing San diego, pittsburgh, cincinati, and the struggling mets. The only good teams we're playing are oakland and houston. let's hope we take 2 of 3 from them, and sweep the rest.
p.s. Dammit, we're playing houston at their stupid ballpark w/ that stupid little hill in center field. It's going to suck for our defence, especially b/c we're never used to playing there. But then again we have the best centerfielder in the league, "THE MILKMAN", Melky cabrera.
Moose is actually tied in wins with Saunders and Lee. Though the average era is well under Moose's 4.01. I guees in the end though the outcome was been good when he's on the mound. A nice note Moose has allowed less HR,BB and ER then Beckett.
It's gonna be a tough series against Houston. But for now lets just enjoy 2 in a row! We'll make it 3 tomorrow with Moose starting. Wow, I never thought that i'd say that. If Moose gets the W tomorrow, would that lead the AL? That would be nuts. Oh and grats to Damon and Giambino for carrying the Yankees the past 2 weeks.

That was a nice gesture by Jorge' hopefully these guys can take it into account and stop these horrible calls against the Yanks. Did I just hear someone mention Barry Bonds and Yankees in the same sentence? Giese has been constant in his two appearances since and pitched himself into a nice "W". The Sox won a close one today but are not producing runs as of late, Franconas plan literally sending runners every inning is losing effectiveness. The Devil Rays excuse me "Rays" are down 3-0 opposite the Rangers as of the moment. Has anyone noticed the Rays' have only Navarro batting .300 or above? Speaking of which despite Mark Texieras abilities as a player of memory he doesn't have the most pleasant personality. I must say emotionally I'm not prepared to see anyone of are starters being dealt away I never been one for trades though just my random thoughts. Where in the world is Carmen San Diego? I mean Phil that is haven't heard anything about his progress. Let's hope Moose can get a team leading ten wins tomorrow, cough. The schedule is favoring the Yankees the upcoming week hopefully the bullets can manage to get back on track while the offense is booming.

I learned something abou Teixeira yesterday. From the left side, the Phillies overshifted on him, just like Giambi!
I don't know where Dan Giese came from, all this guy does is get people out. For our bullpen that is remarkable.
Joba is showing signs of struggling with his control. To be more effective he needs to get that in line.
The Yankees policy is no contract negotiations during the season for anyone. I doubt they'll break that for Cashman. And something may happen to make either party change how they currently think.
I too have heard that NO talks until after the season for Cashman.. + or – (good ?)
Finally our lineup is set, only for the 3rd or 4th time this season.. Hoping Joba can do the job, He's got a lead now.
We need a big win today, also to shake that 500, once and for all. I'm tired of last place too! Let's get a move on!
Hank was a little more positive saying that the Yankees and Cashman were both leaning toward a new contract. I forget the exact words but that was the jist.
And my question for Shapiro is why hasn't he built his own farm system?

Hal: "Cashman contract situation to wait until after the season. This is not positive or negative."
Does this signify the end of the Cashman era in New York? I certainly hope so.
Other GMs possibly on their way out:
Brian Sabean ( Giants )
Padres' GM
Mark Shapiro ( Indians )
I can't really think of any others, but If I were Hal and Hank, I'd sign Mark Shapiro. He made the Indians ( a team that, before last season, was another dark horse ) into a playoff contender last year with an average budget. Imagine what he could do with his wit and the Yankee buck? Jeesh. He obviously specialises in pitching, has a keen eye for good offensive studs and young talent. What he lacks is the budget and farm system to get a deal done. The Yankees have both.
Thank God for Mussina this year, I certainly though he was "done." I still have faith in Pettite and Wang. Andy's effort against Cleveland in last years playoffs was a classic. But we'll need more than those three to win anything this year. So if Hughes and Kennedy can't produce, I doubt if anyone now in AAA can replace them. Both McCutchen and White are currently struggling!
You're absolutely right. I do love our team, even when they are mediocre. I disagree though on letting our kids take their lumps at the MLB level. Their spirit can be fragile. Better to get some low cost veterans like Giese and Rasner.
I also thought you liked Epstein so much you would support the Colon experiment. You may know Beane's stance on way over the hill pitchers. If so please share it.
BTW. The smartest Red Sox fan I know rates Beane first, Epstein second, and Cashman fourth among current GMs.
I only know Beane's reputation as an astute trader. Your Bay Area sources give you the edge on knowledge of Beane.
And I'll always remember, with pleasure. the signs at Yankee Stadium which were full Beer mugs to signify the number of strikeouts when Wells pitched.
Neither pitcher offers anything that the other pitchers who are currently in the Yanks pen can't, that includes getting hammereds (in Wells's case more ways than one).
Your love for mediocrity is showing once again here. Ponson has been total crap his entire career. His stats reflect his mediocrity as they are bloated because he is noathing more than a mediocre pitcher. The pen is full of that already, so why should Crashman waste his time on a pitcher like Ponson who has never shown himself to be a good starter/reliever, all he'll do is take this team down with him. The same with Wells except he is far too old to be an effective pitcher as his stats have gone up and up over the last few seasons of his career. His stuff is mediocre, and just because he has a "rubber arm" that doesn't mean anything if he can't provide quality innings which I doubt he can. I would rather see our homegrown pitchers grow through there own growing pains and take their lumps at the major league level. Also there is a good reason why no one wanted Colon. He is a fat, overweight injury-prone porker. We still don't know how he will turn out, but regardless it was the smart move for this team not to take their chances with a pitcher like him. Lets stop this love affair with mediocrity. I'm not sure that isn't a broken "record" in your case, it's really getting boring.
This team wouldn't have won without Damon's six hits. He literally won thios game for the Yankees. I hope wins start coming a bit easier around here, because nobody is going six for six again any time soon. Great game, good win, but overall: We need to start playing better baseball.
Also good win today hopefully the Yankees can build off of this one and get themselves goin. They absolutely have to go on a multi game winning streak right about now.
RobertG I was tongue-in-cheeking the Wells comment. Way to many times this franchise has wasted its time with over the hill pitchers. Wells and Ponson fit that bill. I hope you are right about the pitching "coming". I guess I'll believe it when I see it on a consistent basis.
Wells doesn't have the "stuff" or "smoke" for short relief. He'd be more of a Giese or Rasner type but with his "rubber arm" he could do multiple innings on consecutive days!
Colon is a much better pitcher than Ponson could ever think of being. Heck if are looking at 8th inning relief sign Wells for that spot. Of course I would not do that either. Congrats to Damon and the offense for pulling one out. However, the Royals pitching is as bad as the Yankees pitching. Games like this are fun to watch.
Now you're using a "record" but I can't?
The yankee GM has to consider ALL possibilities. What about Ponson's arm for a eighth inning guy? I don't think he has much as a starter, but Epstein took a chance on Colon!
Great shot!!!
Based on his past posts I doubt he knows much about baseball arun. I don't think he's being sarcastic either. We all know who he really is!!
Theres the Mariano "give up the gopher ball in tight situations" River-apuke !…what a worthless, no talent pitcher..what garbage !
By firstname.lastname@example.com on June 7, 2008 4:49 PM
What? Do you know anything about baseball? Please tell me that was sarcasm.
Obviously, a great game by Damon, just surprised by how the wheels are quickly coming off of Pettitte's season. In Ponson's brief 5-game stint in '06 with the Yanks his ERA was 10.47. Having him back again would be adding more of the same to what the Yanks have been getting from Wang, and Pettitte. He would just make things worse for this team.
I'm not for signing Ponson if he becomes available, but he can't be any worse than what we've been getting from Andy & Wang lately. AGAIN WOW!!! WHAT A GAME….
DAMON, 6 for 6, Big gamewinning hit, 12-11 Can you believe it, A real pitchers battle, (in reverse). WOW WOW WOW
Theres the Mariano "give up the gopher ball in tight situations" River-apuke !…what a worthless, no talent pitcher..what garbage !
What a time for Rivera to blow up. Odds are it was bound to happen though with the kind of season he's been having, just shows he is human.
What's the downsie in Ponson? Well there's his career record 86-102 4.90, so he's never been more than a mediocre pitcher despite the fact he had very good stuff when he started his career, and has never put it together. He has only had one season where he finished a season with less than a 4.00 ERA. For the previous four seasons his ERA has been well above 5.00. Even though he is having a good year 4-1 3.88, he has given up 71 hits in 55 2/3 IP, way too many hits. He's lucky that record isn't reversed. He isn't what this team needs to turn things around, he should try turning his own career around before the Yanks should even give him a thought about trading for Ponson.
There's the Bet "i'll set the ML record for most strikeouts by a worthless, no-talent hitter in season"apuke. What garbage!!
JH, You're right, Who do you trust in this case it was a no win situation.. Andy only gave up 10 runs on10 hits. Veras held them to only 1 hit… We need 2 runs to get even…………
It is that shenn. Cannot understand why this franchise is incapable of developing or getting some consistent pitching. The minors doesn't develop it and when they go the free agency route it is a disaster. You win championships with pitching NOT offense. Someone NEEDS to inform Crashman of that fact.
Just shows you how Girardi does NOT trust his bullpen. Can you blame him? Does anyone on this blog trust any of the relievers with the lead, aside from Rivera? I am not saying Girardi was right in leaving Andy in. Just stating a fact that I believe, the guy does NOT trust his bullpen. Why should he!
We have the lead thanks to big G, BUT, when can we expect to get some good starts from other than Moose & Raz.. Andy & Wang have been stinking up the place, They are making Igawa look like an ace (ha,ha) There goes the lead.
Right now even Ponson will be looking good…
6-5 Yankees going into the bottom of the 6th. Big fourth-inning comeback, and Giambi's gigantic blast gives the Yanks the lead.
Down 5-1 in the 3rd already. This team can't hit, can't pitch and can't field, a formula for disaster. They are going to be lucky to finish .500. They stink, plain and simple.
With a variety of selectable levels of spam filtering, Typekey/Typepad offers blog owners ways to censor comments. So many "Moderators" choose to "force" comments that agree with them. It doesn't happen on MLBlogs. That's why this blog is the best Yankee's blog!
Q for everyone: Should the Yankees revisit Sidney Ponson and starter or relief?
What's the downside?
What does Sabremetrics say?

Some family heirlooms are more useful than others and this is definitely one of them. Some are meant to be put on display, but this one lives in the cupboard under the kitchen sink.
This is my grandad's army issue shoe brush, used by him during has service with the Royal Engineers and used by me this morning to polish my shoes ready for work on Monday morning.
Although it is not particularly clear I know it was his brush because it has his service number (1879445) stamped on the top.
One side has the words "WARRANTED ALL HORSE-HAIR 1939", which is presumably the year and on the other side are the words "BEECHWOOD LTD" which is probably the manufacturer and a War Department broad arrow.
I'm sure my grandad would be pleased to know it is still being used after all these years.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A week like no other at Quail Hollow held one final surprise Sunday when 22-year-old rookie Derek Ernst birdied the 18th hole to force a playoff, and then won the Wells Fargo Championship on the first extra hole against David Lynn of England.
Ernst was playing only his ninth PGA Tour event. He was the fourth alternate at the start of the week. He was No. 1,207 in the world ranking. None of that mattered when he choked up on a 6-iron from 192 yards and drilled his shot into 4 feet. He made one of only four birdies on the 18th in the final round, and this was the most important. It gave him a 2-under 70 and put him in a playoff with Lynn, who also shot 70.
The shot was no fluke. On the 18th hole in the playoff, as the cold rain started coming down harder, Ernst hit a 3-iron left of the flag to 15 feet. Lynn went from the bank of a creek to the bunker to the rough behind the green, and Ernst was able to win with a par.
Phil Mickelson, who had a one-shot lead with three holes to play, made bogeys on the 16th and 17th holes, and he narrowly missed a 20-foot birdie putt on the 18th that would have allowed him to join the playoff. He had a 73 and finished third.
Ernst won just over $1.2 million and most important to him was the two-year exemption that comes with winning. The victory also gets him into The Players Championship next week. He qualifies for two World Golf Championships, the PGA Championship, the Tournament of Champions next year at Kapalua and the Masters.
Kerr wins again at Kingsmill in playoff
WILLIAMSBURG, Va. — Cristie Kerr made a short par putt on the second hole of a sudden-death playoff with Suzann Pettersen to win the Kingsmill Championship for the third time.
The victory was the 16th of Kerr's career, and her third in five career playoffs. She also won at the River Course in 2005 and 2009.
Kerr shot a 2-under 69, and Pettersen had a 67 to finish at 12-under 272 on the River Course.
On the second hole, Pettersen hit her approach just off the back of the green, and Kerr's stopped nearly hole high about 15 feet away. After Pettersen mis-hit her chip, leaving it well short, Kerr rolled her putt to 18 inches, forcing Pettersen to make hers, and her try missed badly.
Pettersen, the 2007 winner in a playoff with Jee Young Lee, won in a playoff two weeks ago in Hawaii.
Ariya Jutanugarn, the 17-year-old Thai player who led after the first two rounds, made five birdies on the back nine in a 66 to surge into a tie for third with Ilhee Lee.
Toledo makes history on Cinco de Mayo
THE WOODLANDS, Texas — Esteban Toledo celebrated Cinco de Mayo by becoming the first Mexican winner in Champions Tour history, beating Mike Goodes with a par on the third hole of a playoff in the Insperity Championship.
The 50-year-old Toledo, making his ninth start on the 50-and-over tour, eagled the opening hole and finished with a 5-under 67 to match Goodes and Gene Sauers at 6-under 210 at The Woodlands Country Club.
Goodes shot a 72, and Sauers – eliminated on the second playoff hole – had a 74.
Toledo, seven strokes behind Sauers entering the round, earned $270,000 for his second victory in a PGA Tour-sanctioned event.
Rumford takes China Open crown with 68
TIANJIN, China — Brett Rumford won the China Open by four strokes to become the first Australian in 41 years to win consecutive European Tour titles.
The Ballantine's Championship winner last week in South Korea, Rumford shot a 4-under 68 to finish at 16-under 272 at Binhai Lakes. Australians Jack Newton and Graham Marsh also won consecutive events in 1972, the first year of the tour. Finland's Mikko Ilonen was second after a 71.

Is the City of North Augusta's Project Jackson proposal essential to the growth of the City and the Aiken County School District or is the plan filled with assumptions that will cost taxpayers and won't help the Aiken County Board of Education's own efforts?
Proponents and opponents spent two hours at a School Board public hearing on Tuesday – responding to the City of North Augusta's request that the Board members agree to divert school taxes as a part of an extensive riverfront development plan within North Augusta.
"I'm here to talk about the benefits the development would bring," said Will Williams, executive director of the Aiken-Edgefield Economic Development Partnership. "I'm not seeing a downside on this. It's a way for Aiken County to move forward."
Another speaker, Rick Brisson, said the School Board should recognize that education is its key mission, not speculative development in North Augusta.
North Augusta City officials are asking the School Board – and the Aiken County Council, as well – to divert taxes so that the City can pursue a public-private investment in the Hammond's Ferry area. The Tax Increment Financing would end in 15 years – reducing in half the original 30-year proposal the School Board balked at during a meeting earlier this month. The Board members will have about six weeks to come up with a decision.
The plans include a minor league baseball stadium, that North Augusta officials now say no tax revenue will be used to construct. North Augusta will own the stadium, a conference center and a parking garage, and private development will continue indefinitely.
Brisson said he's not voting against Project Jackson.
"If the proposal is as sound as it has been presented to you, the City can surely proceed without any additional funds from the schools," he said. "It's not a vote against economic development."
This public-private partnership may be a gamble the City is willing to take, but the School District should not, Brisson said.
Catie Rabun is an employee of developer Leyland Alliance and is a real estate development associate at Hammond's Ferry.
She wouldn't gain personally from any development of Project Jackson, she said, but she does believe that initiative can mean much to Aiken County.
"I look for our leaders to work toward increasing the vibrancy of our communities," she said, that make them places where people want to live and where business owners want to invest.
TIF efforts are intended to alleviate blight, said opponent Steve Donohue, but that area is not blighted. He considers Project Jackson a "Wheel of Misfortune."
Others objecting to the initiative said the School District could lose some $12 million in revenue through the life of the TIF. But those supporting the project maintain that the School District will lose virtually nothing over that 15 year period, about $3,500 a year because of the existing lack of development.
"With the TIF, you'll get $300,000 every year for 15 years and $1.1 million after that," said City Administrator Todd Glover.
In 2010 the School Board sought a $236 million construction bond referendum to build or rebuild six county schools, said speaker Tom Fisher. Those needs still exist and school officials will require another referendum in the future. If that occurs, voters would object the School Board had left tax revenues on the table during a TIF.
"Whether you're for or against the TIF, the School Board doesn't need to be involved in commercial development," he said.
Scott Gudith agreed, asking the Board members not be lured by the money of Project Jackson. These are hypothetical numbers from some fancy software and are only assumptions.
But the opponents don't seem to realize that the City of North Augusta has been the red-headed stepchild of Aiken County, said Rachel Franklin. Hammond's Ferry has attracted new residents and others moving back. Project Jackson can bring in new business, as well. Too much money now is going to Georgia, and Franklin said the opponents are fighting their own county.
"I hope you support our administrator and the Council and give them this opportunity," she said.
