Other than, you know, Peyton Manning becoming a Bronco, Randy Moss becoming a 49er, Matt Flynn becoming a Seahawk, Tim Tebow becoming a Jet, Brandon Marshall becoming a Bear, Mario Williams becoming a Bill, and the Rams-Redskins pulling off the trade of the century.It was pretty quiet other than that. Unless you count the sound of Miami swinging and missing every few days or so, and the gasps that came from the general direction of New Orleans, which just had its 2012 season altered in a way that few could have imagined when March began.All of that to say, stuff seems to always happen in the NFL, and at this time of year it usually impacts what might happen in the first round of the draft. With a little more than a month to go before the picking starts, here's our third attempt to mock out what will unfold in midtown Manhattan on the night of April 26. (Send comments to firstname.lastname@example.com) 1QBAndrew LuckStanfordJr.6-4235As head-turning as Baylor's Robert Griffin III has been at the combine and on his pro day, I haven't heard anything from the Colts to make me believe they're wavering on their intent to take Luck. With Peyton Manning a Bronco, and Indy's purge of veterans complete, all that remains is the formality of handing in the card on draft night, and making official the very fitting marriage between The Horseshoe and a QB named Luck.2QBRobert Griffin IIIBaylorJr.6-2220At least I don't have to project a trade for Griffin at No. 2 for the third consecutive mock, because the Redskins beat the Browns to the punch and got the blockbuster deal done two weeks ago. Sure, Washington gave up a ton, but if Griffin is one of the league's next superstar quarterbacks as many believe (me included), it'll be worth the price paid. I still say it's Cleveland that will be sorry in the long run.3OTMatt KalilUSCJr.6-7295For now I'm not buying the notion the Vikings are moving away from Kalil and toward either LSU cornerback Morris Claiborne or Oklahoma State receiver Justin Blackmon. Not that they're unworthy picks at No. 3, but Kalil is also worthy, and the value/need of the Vikings' left tackle position is at least as high, if not higher, than it is at cornerback or receiver. After watching the Rams hit the jackpot at No. 2, sounds to me like Minnesota wants to see if anyone is interested in giving up a boatload to trade up to No. 3 for one of the draft's elite talents or possibly No. 3 quarterback Ryan Tannehill.4WRJustin BlackmonOklahoma StateJr.6-1215The Browns have a lot of different options sitting in the spot where this draft starts to get interesting, but I don't sense they're in love with any of them. They seem to think it's too high to take Tannehill, and are going to hew back to Colt McCoy as the answer at quarterback. Claiborne would make sense here, but how do you go defense with your first-round pick when you've got a crying need for an offensive playmaker who can help out McCoy's game? Alabama running back Trent Richardson seems to be the popular choice here, and he could be their guy. But I'm going with Blackmon on the logic that there have been more top-10 impact receivers of late than running backs. Because of that, Richardson could fall into the teens.5CBMorris ClaiborneLSUJr.6-0185Even with Ronde Barber back for another year and Eric Wright signed in free agency, the Bucs should be thrilled to find Claiborne sitting there as a starting fixture at cornerback. The Vincent Jackson acquisition probably removes the need for Blackmon, and Richardson to me is going to be a top-10 bubble pick come late April. One of the few givens in this draft is that Claiborne is the top-rated defender available, and that likely won't change even with Thursday's news that he will undergo wrist surgery this week.6DTDontari PoeMemphisSr.6-5350The Rams' fervent hope is that Blackmon falls to them, but in this scenario their luck will have run out for the first time this draft season. St. Louis will rebound by selecting the fast-rising Poe, whose freakish blend of size, speed and athleticism was one of the big stories coming out of the combine. New Rams head coach Jeff Fisher will have found himself a younger and more athletic version of Albert Haynesworth to put in the middle of his defense. 7DEMelvin IngramSouth CarolinaSr.6-2276The Jaguars are very open to the idea of trading down with a team that might want to leap-frog No. 8 Miami in order to draft Ryan Tannehill, but the list of potential suitors has dwindled as the game of quarterback musical chairs has wound down in the first 10 days of free agency. Iowa offensive tackle Reilly Rieff is an option, as is Notre Dame receiver Michael Floyd. But Ingram seems like the kind of consistent and powerful defender that Jaguars GM Gene Smith looks for, and the team's pass rush needs significant help.8QBRyan TannehillTexas A&MSr.6-4222The Dolphins have had a reverse Midas Touch of late, scaring away almost all of the big fish they pursue. But unless Miami is prepared to play the season with either Matt Moore or David Garrard at quarterback, Tannehill looks like a solid roll of the dice. His relationship with new Dolphins offensive coordinator Mike Sherman from their Texas A&M days should mean he's a known quantity, but then, we thought that about Matt Flynn and Joe Philbin, too. The good news for the Dolphins if they take Tannehill? He really can't say no to them.9DEMichael BrockersLSUSoph.6-6306The Panthers' need on the defensive line dovetails nicely with the strength of this year's first round. Carolina could take a chance on homestate product Quinton Coples, the pass-rushing North Carolina defensive end, but the surer bet would be Brockers, who has the size to help stuff the run and the athleticism to penetrate and become a disruptive play-maker.10OTRiley ReiffIowaJr.6-6300It's amazing how much good $140 million or so can do at the defensive end position. But with Mario Williams and Mark Anderson newly signed, the Bills can look to fill other needs at No. 10. Offensive left tackle is a glaring deficiency, and either Reiff or Stanford's Jonathan Martin should be there for the taking. Reiff is not this high on the draft board of some teams, and could fall in the first round. If the Bills want to continue to focus on defense, Alabama outside linebacker Courtney Upshaw would add some edge rush ability.11LBLuke KuechlyBoston CollegeJr.6-3237With Eric Winston signed during free agency, the Chiefs' top priority of finding a new starter at right offensive tackle has been addressed. That shifts the first-round spotlight on either inside linebacker, or the nose tackle slot. With Dontari Poe and Michael Brockers already selected, we're putting the Chiefs and Kuechly together, with the knowledge that K.C. general manager Scott Pioli was never known to over-value inside linebackers in the draft.12OGDavid DeCastroStanfordSr.6-5310The Seahawks are out of the quarterback market in the draft, having signed free agent veteran Matt Flynn on Sunday night. With Robert Gallery released and Steve Hutchinson signing in Tennessee, DeCastro has emerged as an obvious candidate for the No. 12 slot. He's the kind of tough, physical player that Seattle line coach Tom Cable prefers, and as the top-rated guard prospect, he's a nice melding of value and draft slot.13RBTrent RichardsonAlabamaJr.5-11224(Projected trade with Cardinals). Even with this week's signing of BenJarvus Green-Ellis, I can't rule out Cincinnati as a likely destination for Richardson, the draft's top rusher. The Bengals want to go to a three-headed backfield under OC Jay Gruden, and if Richardson gets out of the top 10 as I expect, Cincinnati (at No. 17 and 21) is one of the best-positioned teams to make a move for him. The Bengals' cornerback need could still get attention at No. 21.14DEQuinton CoplesNorth CarolinaSr.6-6285Even with the Brandon Carr signing in free agency, the Cowboys could opt for another cornerback like Alabama's Dre Kirkpatrick, South Carolina's Stephon Gilmore or North Alabama's Janoris Jenkins. But as a potential top-10 pick in the eyes of many draft analysts, Coples is simply too high to pass on. His inconsistency aside, Coples has pass rush skills, and you can't find those in the middle of the first round.15DTFletcher CoxMississippi StateJr.6-4295The DeMeco Ryans trade means the Eagles have their 2012 starting middle linebacker already on their roster. That frees up Philly to look at several positions in the first round, defensive tackle, offensive tackle and safety among them. Cox is the draft's third-rated DT, and while the position isn't an urgent need, you know how Andy Reid loves his big guys up front.16WRMichael FloydNotre DameSr.6-3224The Jets and Alabama safety Mark Barron are a pairing you hear a lot, and even with New York's signing of free agent safety LaRon Landry, you can't discount Barron. But we know how the Jets love to make a splash with their skill-player acquisitions, and Floyd is rated just slightly behind Oklahoma State receiver Justin Blackmon in the estimation of many scouts.17OTCordy GlennGeorgiaSr.6-6346(Projected trade with Bengals; from Oakland). As a reminder, we're projecting the Bengals and Cardinals trade places at No. 17 and 13, with the Cardinals picking up an extra draft pick or so (a second?) in exchange for letting Cincy go up and get Trent Richardson. At 17, the Cardinals could still fill their need for an offensive tackle with Glenn or Stanford's Jonathan Martin, or turn their attention to defense and take Alabama 3-4 rush linebacker Courtney Upshaw. But the 6-6, 346-pound Glenn is climbing as the draft approaches, and his blend of size and speed is intriguing, even if Arizona did re-sign veteran tackle Levi Brown.18DE/OLBCourtney UpshawAlabamaSr.6-2265The Chargers could go a lot of different ways, but in this scenario they would see a highly ranked player who fills a position of great need fall to them, prompting general manager A.J. Smith to wear that cat-ate-the-canary look of his. Illinois DE/OLB Whitney Mercilus and Clemson OLB Andre Branch are options if Upshaw's lack of ideal athleticism is worrisome to the Chargers, or if they think he projects more as a 4-3 base end in the NFL.19DE/OLBWhitney MercilusIllinoisJr.6-4254With the Brandon Marshall trade getting Jay Cutler the requisite No. 1 receiver, the Bears can take whomever catches their fancy. A cornerback like Stephon Gilmore makes sense, or maybe another offensive tackle for new coordinator Mike Tice to plug into the lineup (Jonathan Martin or Mike Adams?). But Chicago could also use some pass rush help for Julius Peppers, and Whitney, the one-year wonder who starred for the homestate Illini last season, might be hard to resist.20CBStephon GilmoreSouth CarolinaJr.6-1193The Titans are hopeful the free agent signing of ex-Raiders outside linebacker Kamerion Wimbley, who will play a 4-3 end slot in Tennessee, addresses some of their pass rush deficiences. While another pass rusher like USC defensive end Nick Perry is a possibility, as is Michigan State defensive tackle Jerel Worthy, Gilmore is a big and aggressive cornerback who excels in press coverage and would help offset the loss of Cortland Finnegan via free agency.21CBDre KirkpatrickAlabamaJr.6-3192I don't know how Bengals fans could be anything but ecstatic with the team's first-round haul for the second year in a row if it nabs both Trent Richardson and Kirkpatrick, thereby addressing major needs on both sides of the ball. Many analysts have Kirkpatrick as the draft's second-highest rated cornerback overall, but I think South Carolina's Gilmore runs him down and passes him up by late April. 22OTJonathan MartinStanfordSr.6-6304(From Atlanta). With Blackmon our pick for the Browns at No. 4, the team could use its No. 22 selection to get Oklahoma State quarterback Brandon Weeden, or roll the dice at cornerback on the gifted but baggage-strewn Janoris Jenkins. But either Martin or Ohio State offensive tackle Mike Adams figures to be the safer pick, and would give Cleveland a replacement for recently released right tackle Tony Pashos.23CBJanoris JenkinsNorth AlabamaSr.5-10191My gut tells me Jim Schwartz believes he now has enough capital in the bank and enough of a handle on his locker room to take a chance on Jenkins, who comes with as many red flags as anyone in consideration for a first-round selection. It's worth remembering Schwartz once coached Pacman Jones in Tennessee, and believed in him before things spiraled out of control in Nashville. The Lions' need at cornerback is obvious after the loss of Eric Wright in free agency. 24OTMike AdamsOhio StateSr.6-8320After the offensive line issues the Steelers have suffered through the past two seasons, Adams would seem a godsend at No. 24. He's too inconsistent for some teams, but the Steelers like his build and the way he stood out against better competition. If Pittsburgh goes defensive tackle, Michigan State's Jerel Worthy and Penn State's Devon Still are available.25TECoby FleenerStanfordSr.6-6244The Broncos landed themselves a starting quarterback in free agency, and I bet it would make him happy to get a young, play-making weapon like Fleener in the first round. Fleener further impressed NFL scouts with a stellar pro day showing this week, and he has emerged as the draft's clear-cut top tight end prospect.26WRKendall WrightBaylorSr.5-10190Robert Griffin's favorite target helped himself considerably by running in the 4.4s at the Bears' pro day this week, far better than his 4.61 at the combine. The Texans could use a right tackle to replace the released Eric Winston, but most of the first-round tackles are gone and Wright is the kind of playmaker Houston needs opposite Andre Johnson.27LBDont'a HightowerAlabamaJr.6-4269(From New Orleans). Hightower is a versatile and instinctive player who seems ready-made for the New England defense, and we know Bill Belichick and Nick Saban look for the same kind of players and trust each other's judgment.28DE/OLBAndre BranchClemsonJr.6-5260With the Packers losing center Scott Wells to St. Louis, Wisconsin center Peter Konz still has to be on Green Bay's radar screen in this slot. But I would imagine the Packers think finding a play-making 3-4 outside linebacker prospect is more difficult than replacing Wells.29SMark BarronAlabamaSr.6-2218The Ravens could jump on Konz given Matt Birk's advanced years and Ben Grubbs' departure to New Orleans, but I can't imagine they'd think twice if Barron falls all the way to No. 29. The loss of safety Tom Zbikowski to the Colts in free agency only makes the case for Barron even stronger.30WRStephen HillGeorgia TechJr.6-4215The signing of both Randy Moss and Mario Manningham means the 49ers are no longer desperate at receiver, but imagine if they could land a blazer of a deep threat like Hill, whose 4.3 at the combine made everyone sit up and take notice. Alex Smith got over his hurt feelings and re-signed in San Francisco because he knew what was good for him.31DTJerel WorthyMichigan StateJr.6-3310With the Patriots taking Alabama inside linebacker Dont'a Hightower at No. 27, they can fill another front-seven need with Worthy, one of the many defensive tackles with first-round grades. Worthy could play in the Patriots' D-line rotation initially and perhaps develop into Vince Wilfork's successor down the road a bit.32OTBobby MassieOle MissJr.6-6316Well why not get Eli Manning a potential starter at right tackle who also happens to be a fellow former Rebel? Massie is right on the verge of a first-round grade, and at 6-6, 316 pounds, he has outstanding size and reach by NFL standards. If the Giants surprise us and go running back, Miami's Lamar Miller and Boise State's Doug Martin are the names to keep an eye on.

Is it possible to prevent measles with a vaccine? How effective is the measles vaccine?
The only way to prevent measles is by receiving measles immunization: This is commonly given as a two-shot series that contains measles, mumps, and rubella vaccine (MMR) or a shot containing measles, mumps, rubella, and varicella vaccine (MMRV). The MMRV is not recommended for anyone older than 12 years of age. The current recommendation is that everyone receive two doses of the vaccine after 1 year of age. If the vaccine is received before 1 year of age, the person should receive two additional doses.
The MMR vaccine is not 100% effective, and this is why it is critical that everyone be immunized. When people are allowed to skip vaccinations, they put others at risk. This is why most states have laws requiring vaccination. Unfortunately, many states allow people to refuse vaccination based on varying criteria. Due to a sharp increase in the number of cases of measles in 2014 and 2015, there has been a renewed urgency to require everyone to get immunized.
No vaccine is 100% effective. In 2012, the Cochrane Collaboration estimated that one dose of MMR would protect prevent 92% of secondary cases (a case caused by exposure to another person with the disease), and two doses would be 95% effective. However, if most of the population is immunized (known as herd immunity), the effectiveness of the vaccine is markedly increased.
The measles vaccine is also available as a single vaccine. However, in most cases, there is no reason to utilize the measles vaccine alone without mumps and rubella vaccine. The complete schedule of recommended vaccinations is available from the CDC (http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/
Why should people get vaccinated against measles?
Although measles was extremely rare in the United States in the 1990s and early 2000s, recently, there has been a marked increased number of cases.
When the number of vaccinated individuals starts to decrease, the disease starts to occur more frequently. This occurred from 1989 until 1991 in the U.S. During that period, there were 55,000 cases and 123 deaths from measles in the U.S. Due to a massive public-health effort, almost all children in the U.S. received measles vaccine before they were allowed to enter school. The number of cases of measles in the U.S. dropped to only 37 in 2004. At that time, most cases originated outside of the U.S. These cases came from three common sources: infants being adopted from China, U.S. travelers being exposed while out of the country (now most commonly from European travel), and from foreign travelers visiting the U.S.
However, in 2011, the number of cases grew to 222 because more people are not being vaccinated. Fortunately, there were no deaths among those 222. In 2014, the number of cases jumped dramatically to 644 cases, and there were 14 separate outbreaks. The largest outbreak was due to many unvaccinated children and adults in an Amish community in Ohio. A large multistate outbreak of measles started in December 2014 at Disneyland in California. That outbreak has continued into 2015. Most of the recent outbreaks are being traced back to individuals who refused vaccination.
Many states allow people to refuse vaccination for religious reasons (although no organized religion prohibits vaccination) and 17 states allow parents to refuse vaccinations for philosophical reasons. The only way to prevent this problem is to change laws to no longer allow refusal of vaccination except for documented allergy to vaccine components. Many states have up to 40% of preschoolers without proper vaccinations.

All Rise...
No, it's not the continuing erotic adventures of Bond villainess Miranda Frost. But Appellate Judge Amanda DeWees insists that this British mystery series is still terrific entertainment.
Editor's Note
Our reviews of A Touch Of Frost: Season Three (published September 29th, 2004), A Touch Of Frost: Season Four (published February 23rd, 2005), A Touch Of Frost: Season Five (published June 1st, 2005), A Touch Of Frost: Season Six (published August 24th, 2005), A Touch Of Frost: Season 13 (published April 23rd, 2008), A Touch Of Frost: Season 14 (published July 29th, 2009), and A Touch Of Frost: Seasons 11 And 12 (published December 20th, 2006) are also available.
The Charge
Tanner: "I can't make out whether you care or not, guv."
Opening Statement
The well-crafted mystery series A Touch of Frost, based on the novels by R.D. Wingfield, is greatly successful in Britain but less known in the States. Featuring the outspoken curmudgeon Detective Inspector "Jack" Frost, skillfully portrayed by David Jason, these mysteries show us a gritty side of police work. For Frost, a tough job is complicated by pompous Superintendent Mullett (Bruce Alexander), who often seems to be working at cross purposes with Frost in his desire to generate favorable publicity. Working with a constantly revolving series of partners, Frost applies his unique combination of gut instinct, experience, determination, and craftiness to a series of often grim cases.
Facts of the Case
Season Two consists of four episodes, each about 100 minutes, presented here on three discs.
• "A Minority of One"
• "Widows and Orphans"
• "Nothing to Hide"
• "Stranger in the House"
The Evidence
This DVD set was my introduction to the Frost mysteries, and even without any familiarity with the character or his back story I was drawn in fairly quickly. Even though the first episode of this season, "A Minority of One," is probably the weakest, it established Frost as a character I enjoyed spending time with, and the remaining episodes strengthened my appreciation of him and of the series itself. In a way Frost is quite contradictory: Untidy, disorganized, often cranky, he barely bothers to disguise his contempt for his prissy superior Mullett (whom he has nicknamed "Horn-Rimmed Harry"), yet he cares deeply about the people he encounters in his investigations, and his blundering personal life shows his vulnerable side. His sense of humor sometimes seems caustic or flippant, but when a crime arouses his sense of outrage, he dedicates himself to it without hesitation. Frost's romantic difficulties make him someone we can relate to, and in his clashes with Mullett we cheer him on as he champions common sense over bureaucracy. The show's writers capitalize on his unique personality by placing him with different partners in each episode, so the changing, often contradictory personality dynamics keep the series fresh from episode to episode.
Although the character of Frost is what makes this series really stand out, the other elements are also very strong: These mysteries are smart, well-plotted police procedurals peopled with convincing characters, lots of unexpected plot twists, and insightful treatment of real-world issues like racism, society's treatment of the elderly, and the impact of drug use on an addict's family. The series has a somewhat stark feel, and it doesn't flinch from showing us poverty, dysfunctional relationships by the bucketful, and the painful aftermath of violence and death—not to mention everyday realities like tension between coworkers. Indeed, without some humor to provide a counterpoint, the plots would be terribly depressing. Fortunately, in addition to Frost's wonderfully irreverent commentary on the action, we also get some lighter moments courtesy of other characters and sometimes entire subplots: For example, "Nothing to Hide" gives us the comic character of Walter, the drunken homeless man who always sounds like an irascible sea captain shouting through a gale-force storm, and adds a fun subplot in which all the officers torment Mullett by hinting that he behaved inappropriately at a retirement party that he is too hung over to remember.
Audio and video are respectable for a decade-old British television release. Although video seems a bit hazy and dingy, I suspect that this may have been a deliberate choice, since the series refuses to glamorize police work and makes a point of showing how soulless and grungy are Frost's surroundings. There is actually very little grain, and speckling and dirt are at an acceptable level. Audio is clear, and the bluesy saxophone on the musical score sounds excellent. It's not what I'd call a sparkling transfer, but I think sparkle would be contradictory to the mood the series creates.
The Rebuttal Witnesses
It's a pity that this long-running, highly successful series appears on a barebones edition. We don't even get a chapter listing for these episodes, which seems like a minimal courtesy. Moreover, the English subtitles, which can come in handy when the varied British accents or slang expressions become a bit confusing to the American viewer, are abysmal. The author of the subtitles is often wrong (calling Y-fronts "white-fronts," for example) and in some places simply gives up, indicating "[unintelligible]." I admit that after the first episode I only referred to the subtitles once, so perhaps this lameness doesn't persist; frankly, I was too exasperated to investigate further.
The actual, physical packaging of the set is very nice: A single double-wide keep case containing double-sided hinged trays, it's both more durable and more convenient than those irritating fold-out cardboard affairs and less bulky than a set of individual keep cases. But again, where are our goodies? A director commentary or even actor bios would have been a step in the right direction.
Closing Statement
The list price for A Touch of Frost: Season Two is staggeringly high for a barebones set, so I advise first-time viewers to rent before deciding whether to make the substantial financial investment this set represents. It's a pity that MPI didn't sweeten the deal with some nice extras if they were going to charge close to $50 for this set. Nevertheless, I urge fans of police procedurals to look around for a markdown price, since this is a solid mystery series that many will enjoy adding to their collection.
The Verdict
Detective Inspector Frost is found not guilty. His ongoing efforts to fight crime will no doubt bring him to our courtroom again, and we look forward to consulting with him in the future. However, MPI is issued a stern warning from the bench to lower their prices or add some extra content to future releases in this series.
Give us your feedback!
Did we give A Touch Of Frost: Season Two a fair trial? yes / no
What's "fair"? Whether positive or negative, our reviews should be unbiased, informative, and critique the material on its own merits.

Yup, that's Zac Efron winning a Golden Popcorn for "Best Shirtless Performance" during the MTV Movie Awards show last night. Host Conan O'Brien presided over a broadcast that was as rambunctious — and often silly — as ever. The Hunger Games: Catching Fire won movie of the year, over such contenders as 12 Years A Slave, American Hustle, The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug, and The Wolf of Wall Street, while Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson were honored for the best female and male performance of the year, respectively.
In addition to the diverse pleasures of a show in which awards are given for "best kiss," "best fight," and "best scared-as-s*** performance," it's also a great time to anticipate summer movie season. We've gathered together all the notable clips that debuted during the show, as well as a batch of TV spots that made their premieres yesterday.

Most Helpful
We thought this was good, but aren't sure why it wasn't more flavorful and a home run for us with all our favorite ingredients. I used shiitake mushrooms and decaff green tea. This served two as a main dish with brown rice.
Excellent recipe packed with flavour! I marinated the tofu overnight, and I used lemongrass and lemon myrtle green tea leaves instead of the jasmine because that's what I had on hand. The lemongrass really heightens the tamarind. For the fresh mushrooms, I went with enokis, and I used rice bran oil in place of the peanut for stir frying. Healthy and satisfying. Thanks AJO!

In order to achieve a high output power, high gain and high dynamic range directly modulated optical link, we have developed a high power and low noise DFB laser and a high power handling and high efficiency photodiode with specific designs. The laser exhibits high power (180 mW), high efficiency (0.4 W/A), low RIN and a 7.4 GHz modulation bandwidth. The UTC photodiode offers high efficiency (1 A/W), high saturation current (90 mA) and 15 GHz modulation bandwidth. We have realized a low loss optical link with no amplifier and no impedance matching network. We have obtained a 7.3 GHz modulation bandwidth link with a gain higher than . Third order intermodulation of the devices at various different polarization points has been investigated to deduce the optical link dynamic range. At 2.5 GHz, we have demonstrated an OIP3 of 37 dBm and a SFDR close to 120 dB · Hz2/3.

Butterfly Winter (Paperback)
Butterfly Winter, W.P. Kinsella's first novel in 15 years, is the story of Julio and Esteban Pimental, twins born in the Caribbean country of Courteguay, a lush and enchanted but impoverished enclave on the border between Haiti and the Dominican Republic where time moves at its own pace and reality is open to question. The brothers are destined to play ball in America, and to shape the history of their baseball-crazed homeland. They mature quickly and by the age of ten they leave home for the Major Leagues. Julio is a winning pitcher who, much to the chagrin of any team that signs him, will only throw to his catcher brother, who is a very weak hitter. As they pursue their baseball dreams, events in their homeland, including political brutalities and the outlawing of baseball, continue to shape their lives. They are monitored by the Wizard, a mysterious figure who controls events behind the scenes. In his last years, the Wizard tells the story of the twins, their family and their lovers to a skeptical gringo journalist. Butterfly Winter is a magical literary romp that includes a diabolical chiropractor, a romance blessed by butterflies and a deep political undercurrent that unites the wealthy north with the baseball-loving, talent-laden but oppressed and deprived south.
About the Author
W.P. Kinsella may be an internationally recognized figure since the translation of his work into such films as Field of Dreams, Dance Me Outside, and Lieberman in Love, but his compelling insight and dazzling wit have been delighting Canadian readers for years. Born in Edmonton, Alberta, and currently residing in Chilliwack, British Columbia, Kinsella has published such classics as Dance Me Outside, Shoeless Joe, Born Indian, and The Fencepost Chronicles.

Hot and humid for the majority of the year, but it never gets that cold.
Off-Campus Housing:
There is a wide range of off-campus housing available. Where a person lives is really up to him or her and any restrictions, preferences, or requirements he or she might have. My off-campus apartment is close to my classes and my place of work, so it is very convenient for me.
My major is difficult, especially as an upperclassman with increasingly complex chemistry courses. To succeed as a Biochemistry and Molecular Biology major, a person needs to budget his or her time and learn to study effectively. There are many resources at the university, though, to help someone study and learn the more difficult concepts of each course.
Health & Safety:
There is a very strong and active police presence on campus with an average response time to an emergency of less than one minute. The police are stern but fair and try to work with students when a problem arises. Their policy is more focused on preventing crime rather than punishment, although they do enforce the letter of the law.
UF has a wide range of academic subjects available to incoming and transfer students. It is especially strong, though, in science, math, and technology. The professors are accessible and take the time to work well with their students, so even though a particular major or area-of-study might be difficult a student has a high likelihood of at the very least passing in their subject area. There are a wide range of tutoring services offered by the school that are run by or employ students, so a person who might be struggling with a concept has personalized options for receiving assistance.
Athletics at UF is the pride of the Gator Nation. Everyone gets so excited for football and tickets through the football lottery are super easy to get. There's also a Rowdy Reptiles program that rewards students for attending and supporting varsity sports other than football.
Off-Campus Dining:
Definitely the best thing about the off-campus dining options, is the cost and the hours of operation. Many places that are very close, close around 2 or 3 am. There are a decent amount of options and each restaurant does their best to accommodate everyone. Students also can pay no more than $6-$8 for a meal. Almost everything nearby delivers. Five Star Pizza is open and delivers until 5 AM, so that's definitely something to check out!
Local Area:
Gainesville is a textbook definition of a college town. Everything's centered around the Gators. There's definitely a strong sense of school spirit and there's always something to do. Midtown is right across the street from Murphree area. The area near the school is pretty safe, but cops are more worried about catching underaged drinkers than suspicious people. Going east on University Ave a few blocks away from campus is a pretty sketchy area even during the daytime. Just never go anywhere by yourself.
Campus Housing:
I don't give it an A+ because the dorms are ugly. But everything else is great
Local Area:
I personally think Gainesville is ugly and not very safe. It is all about UF and super small. Fortunately there are events and activities organized by the school.
it's impossible to reach your financial aid counselor.
Greek Life:
There are a lot of fraternities and sororities to join. In fact, many students are part of one. I find them completely pointless but some people have their lives rotate around them so it depends on what you like.
there is a lot of technology available to the students but in the afternoons it is hard to find a computer available in the library
Computer labs are constantly being renovated. There are many computers available, I've never had to wait to use one.
Campus Quality:
Feeling of the antiquity of the school is extremely nice and well maintained. Campus is really big meaning it encompasses so many things that can interest any individual. You are bound to be a part of a club. The fact that Shands hospital is literally on campus offers many opportunities for undergraduates looking to be in the medical field such as research opportunities, volunteer work, and paid jobs in their field of interest or labs.
Campus Quality:
Professors are passionate about their work and care about student's achievement. School is maintained clean and provides a safe environment for students. Reitz student union is being renovated and already houses many student resources such as a career development center and much more. Tons of clubs and numerous school sponsored activities are held throughout each semester.
I would have liked to have received more money, but what can you do.
People go CRAZY, paint their faces, shout and curSe during all the games, GO GATORS !!!!!
There are several places where one can study on campus; there are plenty of computers for everyone and always a Starbucks not to far from it for all you all nighter types. :D
The school is mostly populated by white people, but is very accepting to all races, religions, sexualities, and nationalities. There are several international students that work and/or attend the university. The university also conducts exchange programs which also brings more diversity to the campus. The one thing that I like best about Florida is that thy give everyone to express themselves. Every culture has a student organization that puts on monthly events to raise cultural awareness. every political belief is free to hand out flyers. An sexual orientation is not an issue, there are clubs, events, and parades that support all sexualities. Florida is the most diverse college, were everyone is accepted for who they are.
Greek Life:
Greek life is a huge part of the social atmosphere at Florida. There are several Greek organizations and they all give back to the community. Greek life is viewed highly favorable among non-Greek students. Greek life is a choice and it is not for everyone but it has its benefits. At Florida there are three types of living for Greek housing. There are on-campus housing split between fraternity drive and sorority row. There is also off campus housing that Greek organizations own. Lastly, some Greek students do live in the on-campus dorms that are available to all students.
Off-Campus Housing:
Florida has a lot of off-campus housing offers. The more roommates you have the cheaper the rent. You can get room that are styled from studios to four bedrooms. The closer you live to campus the more expensive the rent will be. I have never lived off campus during my undergraduate studies due to convenience and the bus schedule. If you live off-campus you have to live your apartment 30 minutes before your class starts to make sure you arrive on time. Off-campus is safe because most complexes are gated and parking is abundant. Florida is really good at allowing apartment complexes to advertise on campus, so students have off-campus housing information readily available to them.
Local Area:
University of Florida has a great athletics department. The atmosphere at games is very exhilarating especially at football games. UF students can go all games except for football games for free. Students can sign up for the student lottery tickets for football games for about $100 and if you are lucky enough you win 7 tickets to all the home games. You can even sell the tickets and make some extra money. But, I'd rather go to the games. It's great to be a Florida gator! :)
The professors really help you get interested in a topic and tend to go into great detail because they are so excited about what they are teaching. They make you want to learn more. There were very few days that I dreaded going to class. The workload is manageable and still challenging without being overwhelming. There are always independent study options, study abroad opportunities, and even TA spots open.
Parking on campus can be crazy! It's hard to find a spot and I know multiple people who have gotten tickets, even multiple ones in the same day!
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
Some schools have certain advantages over others. Small schools give a feeling of community; large schools have lots of resources; private schools are ripe for close academic relationships with faculty; and state schools offer a good value. Well, UF is not your typical state school, and Gainesville is certainly not your stereotypical small town. Because this place is so big, it has all of the libraries, dorms, athletics, courses, clubs, and services you could want at a good price. But if you put forth just a little effort, you'll find that the University also has more compassionate, down-to-earth professors, locals, and students that any small, private school could ever dream of having.
The best thing about going to a school like UF is that whatever you want to accomplish in life, it is probably obtainable through going to this school. You will never have to worry about not fitting in with anyone because the campus is a huge melting pot. Students are never bored on campus because there is literally always something to do with friends both on or off campus. And who wouldn't want to go to a school where the immense amount of school pride is literally unexplainable? It sure is great to be a Florida Gator.

Prof Higham is the deputy director of the Oxford Radiocarbon
Accelerator Unit, at Oxford University, England, and is a
University of Otago graduate in archaeology.
The researchers undertook high-precision dating of materials
from 40 archaeological sites, from Russia to Spain.
This revealed Neanderthals disappeared from Europe about
40,000 years ago, the researchers said.
Rather than a rapid replacement of European Neanderthals by
anatomically modern humans, the study, published in Nature,
supported a ''more complex picture'', and a ''biological and
cultural mosaic that lasted for several thousand years''.
Neanderthals and modern humans were both living in Europe for
between 2600 and 5400 years, the research suggested.
For the first time, researchers had constructed a ''robust
timeline'' showing when the last Neanderthals died out,
information which had eluded scientists previously, Prof
Higham said in an interview. Evidence suggested Neanderthals
disappeared at different times across Europe rather than
being rapidly replaced by modern humans.
The results had involved a ''huge amount of work'', and the
research team obtained new radiocarbon dates for about 200
samples of bone, charcoal and shell.
Prof Higham, who has a BA (Hons) and an MA in archaeology
from Otago University, said that his fascination with
Neanderthals began within the first few weeks of his Otago
One of the ''big questions'' in this field had been ''what
happened when modern humans and Neanderthals met'', and a
''reliable chronology'' was needed to understand this.
The researchers had now shown that modern people in Europe
were sharing the continent with Neanderthals for ''much
longer than previously thought'', with sufficient time for
cultural influence and interbreeding.
Other recent studies suggested modern human and Neanderthal
groups interbred outside Africa, with at least 1.5% of the
DNA of modern non-African human populations originating from
Neanderthals, researchers said. firstname.lastname@example.com

Daniel Tosh
When he's not telling jokes in a comedy club, Daniel Tosh can usually be found riding the waves. Of the two, he'd rather be surfing. "But standup pays much better," he explains, "so like most artists, I go where the money's at." His job takes him away from his home in Hermosa Beach, California, and into clubs around the world. There are some drawbacks to being on the road, of course. "Having to do a lot of morning radio. That's probably the worst," he says. And what's the best part, besides getting to surf in places like Australia, New Zealand, and Hawaii? "Coming home. I think it's nice just to see different cities and know that I don't have to live there," he chuckles. Onstage, Tosh has a simple objective. "My goal is to say something that hasn't been said too many times before. I try to make it as weird and absurd as possible. There's not a lot of truth in my standup. My life is boring enough to live, I don't want to retell it every night onstage."

DOTHAN--In April the board reviewed 14 applications for Community Development Block Grants.
Tuesday the board displayed how much money each group requested versus how much it recommends the group gets.
This year the city will distribute a little more than $440,000.
That's a $48,000 decrease from last year.
"That'll be spent mostly in the lower income area of district one, district 2, some are sidewalks some are educational programs, we're grateful to get the money," said Mayor Mike Schmitz.
City commissioners will vote on those recommendations in two weeks.

Family Outings
Boscobel House and Gardens in Garrison, NY, about an hour outside NYC, is a fun historical spot that offers year-round family events, from house tours to outdoor concerts and the Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival.
Picture this: rolling hills covered with grape vines and a curvaceous river framed on either side by antique farmhouses and historic mansions. It may sound like France or Germany, but this is actually a scene from our own Hudson Valley. Right in the middle of it all is Boscobel, one of the many restored historic mansions in the area.
Boscobel was built in the early 1800s by Elizabeth Corne Dyckman, widow of States Morris Dyckman, a British Loyalist who passed away before he could complete the house himself. The structure, whose name means "beautiful woods" in Italian, originally stood 15 miles away in Montrose but was painstakingly reconstructed on its current 60 acres in Garrison and re-opened in 1961 as a museum offering cultural, educational, and recreational activities for families.
From April to December, visitors can take a 50-minute guided tour of the house to learn more about its Federal-period architecture and furnishings.
Boscobel is the setting for the Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival's summer season, which usually includes performances of three Shakespearean tales. Arrive early for pre-theater picnicking in the gardens. For tickets and information on Family Nights, call 845-265-9575 or visit hvshakespeare.org.
Boscobel's beautiful vistas offer a lovely backdrop for outdoor performances and nature programs. Each year, June marks the return of two family favorites: the annual Snapping Turtle Walk and the Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival, which runs through the summer.
In early July, pack a blanket for the Great American Concert and Picnic.
Plan to eat and dance in September at The Big Band Concert and Sunset Picnic.
There's also a Family Bonfire Night in the fall.
In December, activities move indoors where children enjoy tea with Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus.
While you're visiting Boscobel, check out these other noteworthy venues right around the corner. About 10 miles away in Carmel is the 14,000-acre Fahnestock State Park, which offers hiking trails, a beach, and camping. Venture across the river and take a guided tour of West Point, or check out 100 outdoor sculptures by acclaimed artists picturesquely situated on the landscaped fields at Storm King Arts Center in Mountainville. For a list of more attractions in the area, visit hudsonvalley.org or hudsonrivervalley.com.
The grounds surrounding the mansion include herb and flower gardens, a woodland trail, and rustic gazebos from which visitors can take in the view of the Hudson River and its Highlands. Boscobel also displays a rotation of special exhibits in its galleries and grounds.
Address: Boscobel House and Gardens, 1601 Route 9D, Garrison, NY
Hours: Open April 1 through Dec. 31.
Price: General admission to the house and grounds: $17; $8 children ages 6-14; free for children younger than 6. Family of four: $45; $8 per additional person.
For more information: 845-265-3638 or boscobel.org

PITTSBURGH - The Phillies are 23-14 when they score first and dropped to 14-35 when the opponent scores first after Friday's 8-2 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates at PNC Park.
The Pirates jumped on starter Roberto Hernandez for four first-inning runs.
Phillies first baseman Ryan Howard said afterward that in any game, it's huge to score first.
"You need that momentum on your side," Howard said. "It puts the other team on their heels a little bit."
Phillies manager Ryne Sandberg was asked if he thought the energy was sapped out of his team after that first inning in which Hernandez threw 45 pitches.

As you may have read, we're giving away an exclusive free Franz Ferdinand CD on the front of NME this week. To give you a taste of what you're in for, here's Alex Kapranos to talk you through a preview stream of just two of the tracks featured - scroll down to listen:
'Evil Eye' (Todd Terje Extended Mix)
"This mix just goes mental! What Terje's done with the extended mix is he's completely deconstructed it. With 'Evil Eye' there's lots of details within the song which will just pass you by very quickly. What he's done has allowed each idea to develop. We usually write three minute songs, but he'll take seven minutes to build a track up. That's what he's done with this and it makes it more of a dancefloor song."
'Bullet' (Live From Konk)
"There's very little difference between the live and album versions. We tried adding on little bits in production, but you realise that sometimes things are best left completely unadorned. When Nick and I wrote it we were trying to recreate the sense of being on a rollercoaster: that sense of being in one place when your stomach and eyes are telling you you're in another because you've just dropped 50 ft in a second."

Woman sentenced to more than year for drug offenseSeptember 05,2013A Rutland woman who pleaded guilty to a federal charge of conspiring to distribute heroin and crack cocaine in the area was sentenced to 15 months in jail Wednesday.
Judge Christina Reiss also sentenced Annette Rider, 45, to three years of supervised release following her incarceration.
According to the U.S. Attorneys office, Rider was part of a group that sold heroin and crack cocaine in Rutland during the spring of 2011. During that time, the Vermont Drug Task Force made several undercover purchases of drugs from Rider.MORE IN This Just In

Imagine your name, e-mail address, billing and shipping information, phone number, and the last four digits of your credit card number in the hands of crooks.
If you're one of the 24 million zappos.com shoppers you'll be getting an email from the company's CEO.
The good news is that entire credit card numbers were not stolen because they're stored somewhere else.
CEO Tony Hsieh says Zappos voided and reset customer passwords so new ones can be created. His e-mail to customers includes a link and instructions.
It also urges customers to change their passwords just to be safe, especially if they use the same or similar password at any other site.
Hackers attacked Zappos servers in Kentucky and now the company's working with police to try and catch the crooks.
Zappos says it has shut down its phone lines so it can have its entire staff take customer questions online.
You may recall the largest security breach was when Sony's system was hacked, compromising the information of more than 75 million PlayStation customers.

While Beowulf has come down to us as literature, as a written poem, the epic's pre-literate medieval audience would have known it through the performance of a scop, a bardic storyteller, as Bagby presents himself here. In this one-man tour de force Bagby accompanies himself on an Anglo-Saxon harp. Using the entire range of his voice, he delivers this gripping tale in Old English, as it could have been experienced more than one thousand years ago.
This is a performance which speaks to the lovers of Beowulf and oral epic, early music enthusiasts, Tolkien fans, medievalists, and anyone searching for virtuoso storytelling or a glimpse into the fascinating beginnings of the English language.
