Rapada will start season on the DL, Hughes likely to join himBy
This isn't much of a surprise, but Brian Cashman confirmed this afternoon that Clay Rapada (shoulder bursitis) will indeed start the year on the DL. The left-hander threw 15 fastballs from a mound this morning, but is still a ways off from returning to game action.
Meanwhile, Joe Girardi indicated Phil Hughes (bulging disk) is likely to start the season on the DL as well. That is not yet set in stone, however. Hughes threw 57 pitches in a minor league game today, but it's unclear if he'll be stretched out enough to join the rotation when the season begins. Like I said, not much of a surprise.

Prediction: Ronnie Mustelier fans will have their wish granted when he becomes the only guy left in spring not on the disabled list. They'll then turn on him when he can't quite cover the throw from himself at third to himself at first.
No way. He will be our little Pablo Sandoval, and we will love him always.
These are Yankee fans we're talking about. Mustelier's staunchest allies will eat him for breakfast if he has a shitty April.
Not me, man. I don't care if Musty brings a bucket of KFC and a 6 pack onto the field, I'm riding this carrito all the way to Monument Park.
boesch is has a rib injury too.
jesus fucking christ man. what is going on in yankeeland?!?!?!?!
Good…perhaps we'll be get to see less of his stellar OF play, yesterday it looked like he was on Dancing with the Stars, with his feet tied together out there.
you've got to be kidding me. yeah, i hope one of the only guys on the team left uninjured who can possibly hit worth a damn is hurt!
Absolutely. The Yankees can't afford any more injuries, I don't care who it is. Boesch had MLB success as recently as 2011, and he's younger than the vaunted Mustelier. He has a shot of being a positive contributor, I don't get how anyone say "good" about a possible injury.
Eh, he's a terrible hitter and his defense and other lack of skills will take away from any potential offense he might stumble into. No big loss.
And why does his or Mustelier's age have anything to do with anything here?
He was a terrible hitter last year, that doesn't mean he can't contribute at age 27 as a lefty with the short porch. He was well above average in 2011.
Mustelier's age means nothing, I'm just pointing out that he's young, in his prime, and might actually bounce back from a bad 2012. Nothing is certain, but he was the sabermetric darling as a break out candidate a year ago. He's not some over the hill veteran who has not shot at helping. I hope you're didn't think "good" when reading he might be injured. Just seems kinda dickish.
brennan boesch has already had an above average year in the major leagues in the american league facing pitchers like king felix, cc, etc. to say he sucks and won't do it again when he has 1 good yr and one bad yr is just plain stupid.
He has played 3 years, not 2. His career fWAR is 1, his career bWAR is 0.6 (so basically an ~0.2-0.3 WAR/yr player).
While it is certainly possible that he can have a decent year, he is dangerously close to the definition of a replacement player.
Hopefully you guys are right, but I just don't see it.
He's basically had 4 (arguably 5) good months in a 3 year career, with much of that even being bumped by insanely unsustainable BABIP, such as .421 in 2010 against lefties. His minor league record is also unimpressive with one out of nowhere power year accounting for everything.
Maybe he flukes his way into one more good month until Granderson is back, but I just don't put the odds of that happening as good. Plus, his defense and base running will take away from much of that too, in addition to his lack of plate discipline and contact ability (regardless of what Lou Piniella blinds says).
who said he can hit worth a damn…go fuck yourself
well, i doubt you can read too gud but they're called statistics.
league average in his first yr as a rookie (even got RoY votes) an above average yr in his soph yr with an uptick in avg and obp and a drop in Ks, and then a pretty bad year but still with 12 hr.
maybe you don't pay too much attention but the yankees don't have too much power. Their outfield of gardner and ichiro will hit like 6 hr combined.
a 27 yr old with one avg, one above avg and one shitty yr in the majors can hit.
god yankee fans are fucking terrible.
I've been looking at statistics for quite a long time, and I've seen his…his are nothing stellar. I pay quite a bit attention, and have been for awhile, long enough to see he's not the answer, especially with what I saw out of his defense.
Perhaps the pitchers may have figured him out, maybe he's really not that good…perhaps Brenda, you'd just like to get dogged by him…got a sweet spot, for Brennan? Tell me I'm terrible when you've been watching them as long as I have.
ah, i see, so you've seen it with your own eyes. right. and gay jokes are always the go to for the intellectual and reasonable. carry on sir with yourself. enjoy.
…well that escalated quickly. Look, nobody is saying Boesch is some unappreciated star. But there is a chance that he can help this team. Perhaps even a better chance than guys like Fransisco, Mustelier, Dan Johnson, Juan Rivera etc. If your response to an injury of a potentially useful player is "good" and your response to someone challenging you on that is a gay joke, then I can't respect that.
how did he know about my alter ego brenda where i play dress up?!?!
Don't start off with calling me an idiot, insulting my intelligence, and calling me terrible fan. My response never said anything bad about being gay. Just a response to his insults and why he's so enamored with a average to below average player. I've taken a ton of crap on here from some people including one idiot recently saying my mother gives out free BJ's. so I sit back and take it?
Listen, I didn't insult anyone. Maybe jsbrendog shouldn't have called you an idiot. And I didn't see the comment you refer to at the end, but I doubt it was him.
All I'm trying to say, is don't be glad that a potential contributor to the team is injured. It seems petty and kind of dickish. He's been above average before, so I don't think it's fair to pigeon hole him into "average at best, but most likely below average". Again, it was only a year ago he was a favorite as a young breakout candidate.
No, I've never had a problem with you…but how many times have we seen players in the past called useless, and terrible. Is it so bad that I feel this guy fits that classification now. His defense yesterday cost the Yankees runs. I didn't like what I saw, so I made a comment. So Brendog jumps my shit and I react. If he's been half the fan I've been he'd be lucky.
If I'm wrong so be it.
Well, fair enough I suppose. I do disagree that he's fallen into the "useless" category though. He may not be above average, but I think he has a reasonable a shot as anyone else for his role in camp to be above average, and maybe even more so.
I won't get in the middle of beef you have with other commenters.
haha yo im a more heady fan than you are bruh.
dude, you're free to feel however you want. and i am free to feel that anyone who says "good" about a player on their team getting hurt and calling them useless is an idiot.
i dont know who said that other crap to you but it wasn't me. it's the internet, it is full of tough guys.
i'm done. you feel your way, i'll feel mine. i won't make fun of your mom or call you gay cause i have class. enjoy your weekend and may flying spaghetti monster be with you.
Or maybe he had a significant thumb injury and is poised to bounce back now that he's healthy. At a low price, you take the risk. The odds of him having a hot month and compensating for the lack of Grandy are better than with anyone else we have. He's for a swing made for YS and at least some track record of MLB success.
the hits just keep on comin'
Speaking of which, Musty had 3 hits today, but Nova pitched poorly (Don't tell Eddard!)
And apparently those were 57 very impressive pitches from Hughes too. Against low-A competition no less.

The Sewickley Zoning Hearing Board unanimously approved an appeal from the , involving lot consolidation plans that include the Beaver Street property also known as the "pink house."
The three-member board ruled Wednesday that the pink structure at 202 Beaver St. should be considered a place of assembly under the borough ordinance, overturning an earlier determination from Nancy Watts, borough code enforcement officer.
Michael Parrish, church attorney, made the case that the youth center stands alone as a place of assembly and should be classified as a principal use. The board agreed, ruling that Watts made an error in her determination.
In August, Watts ruled that the church's proposed use for a youth center and parking lot are "accessory uses," and must be unified on the same lot as the "principal structure," which is the church. Watts determined the church would have to unify all three of its four lots before proceeding with youth center plans. A fourth property, a single-family home that the church owns, is up for sale.
Watts explained her decision to the planning commission in September and reiterated the same to zoning board members during an October hearing.
The church governing board initially decided to raze the pink house to build a new youth and education center. Following public outcry, church leaders agreed to preserve and renovate the home and worked with neighbors to come up with solutions. Church officials say final plans rest on borough approvals.
The zoning board ruled:
- The church's unification plans to consolidate the two lots into a single lot may proceed subject to review by the planning commission and borough council in compliance with the set chapters contained in the borough code of ordinances.
- The church's proposal for conditional use as a place of assembly is remanded back to the code enforcement officer who may proceed to make a new determination with the consideration of 202 Beaver St. as a principal use.
- The board finds there is a direct conflict between the 400-square-foot limitation of off-street parking for residential lots and the parking requirements for places of assembly in another section of the code. The board grants a variance solely for the purpose of addressing the conflict between the two sections.

I write about organizational leadership and social technology
Are too many other things competing for our attention? Or does the issue need to be reframed for accelerated action?
by Giovanni Rodriguez and Toby Chaudhuri
[Note: Rodriguez and Chaudhuri are co-founders of SocialxDesign, a new strategy consulting firm based in Silicon Valley, San Francisco and Washington, D.C.]
It's the end of the second week of our 2012 election project — where we look at the conversational patterns and trends of online influencers — and what a week it was. From Sept 8-15, we watched the news about Obama's post-Convention bounce, the August jobs report, and — a September surprise — the blow-up in the Middle East following the release of a much-maligned, most unfortunate anti-Islamic film. Each of these issues is likely to affect American voter sentiment in September. But what do influencers think? Which issues were the big winners among them last week? Which were the losers?
Working with Traackr -- an online influence measurement platform — we looked at the relative weight of a number of keywords over the past week, and here's what we found. Among the top 50 general influencers in conversations about the 2012 election, Libya as a keyword earned more mentions than "the economy" (246 versus 158). The jobs report, which was supposed to blunt Obama's bump? Only 25.
That could be news in itself. The volume and velocity of conversation on certain topics can at the very least serve as a barometer of voter sentiment. And the fact that Obama passed Romney last week with a noticeable margin (ahead in both national polls and a majority of battleground states) would seem to confirm that. With the President enjoying more favorable ratings for perceived leadership in international affairs, the louder chatter on the Middle East reveals a nation less concerned about the President's perceived failures handling the economy. But what about all the other issues? Is there anything important that is getting lost in the shuffle?
Of course there is. But there's one topic whose reception in the media — particularly social media — has been puzzling us. And that's the issue of voter suppression — the aggressive and systematic enactment of laws that make it more difficult for people to vote. It's a potentially volatile issue that has been documented and reported in many places (for a good summary of the history, the coverage and the many facets of this issue, check out this recent post by John Dean (yes, that John Dean)). But in the blogosphere and Twittersphere, not so much. We checked in with Traackr last week. While Libya got 246 hits last week among top influencers, and the economy got 158, "voter suppression" got a mere 7 hits, about 3% as much as Libya. When we looked at the results from the top 50 political influencers writing about Hispanics — one of the groups most affected by voter suppression — the number weren't much different: Libya (176), the economy (128), voter suppression (6). Political influencers writing about African Americans — the group perhaps most affected by voter suppression — presented numbers that were "better": Libya (164), voter suppression (27) — with voter suppression scoring 16% as much as Libya. A bigger number, but still. It made us wonder: do voters care enough about voter suppression to make this a commanding issue in this election?
There are at least three ways to look at this question. First — and perhaps most obvious — it strikes us that voters might actually have become immune to issues like voter suppression or voter fraud (not the in-person fraud that Republican legislators are supposedly battling, but fraud involving wholesale tampering with the vote), which in another time helped to spawn entire movements and organizations. Sad, but it may be a sign of voter cynicism, and acceptance that the US political system operates with a certain amount of corruption that is just not worth fighting.
But another way to look at this is that Democrats and Republicans have essentially nullified one another with opposing frames for their arguments. Democrats say "voter suppression," while Republicans say "voter integrity" when advocating for laws that Democrats say suppress the vote. This nullification creates the appearance that each side has an equally defensible position on the issue, despite the fact that voter suppression is actually a larger issue encompassing a wider range of grievances (e.g., the systematic shortening of hours for voting in districts highly populated with African Americans, Hispanics and others who tend to vote Democrat).
In our view, however, there is a more compelling explanation for the apparent apathy on this issue. It's not that no one cares about voter suppression. But to rise above the other issues of the day — and to transcend the inhibiting language that has framed the debate left and right — voters will need to know what only to think about voter suppression but also what they can do. For one of the more interesting things we've learned about social technology over the last few years — since, say, the last Presidential election — is that it is a great platform for action, not just conversation. And if there's anything unusual about the issue of voter suppression is that its opposite — voter acceleration — is something that no one can openly oppose. Voter acceleration as a movement — in places where suppression is feared — is ready for prime time (already in action, but primed for greater support), and social technology could be the engine.
We've got a hunch that this is where the issue will go in the weeks running up to the election — we have been watching a few groups that are fired up and ready to go — and we'll be listening to whether influencers will spot it. Perhaps what they are waiting for is evidence of a groundswell of doers not talkers. That should certainly get their attention. It would certainly get ours.
I've wondered why Voter suppression hasn't been widely reported either. PBS did a short bit on it a week or two ago and let it go when nobody said it was a concerted effort. ALEX groups have been coordinating these laws and the Governor of Pennsylvania even put voter registration (there is no voter fraud claim there) on a check list of reasons why his state would swing to Romney. Many of the supression moves are way to similar not to be concerted. In the Bush/Gore election, the infamous voter lists of felons from Texas were sent for use in Florida (Bush to Bush), where they were used to remove thousands of eligible voters from the rolls.
The "liberal press" seems meek in calling out right wing extremists for fear of being called liberal. I wish that the old guard Republicans would take back their party. I didn't always agree with them but they made a lot more sense. The new Republican party is selling out its future by alienating minorities as their aging white male center is shrinking both from them dying off and from rising birthrates of non-white citizens. More and more women seem to be unwilling to overlook the attacks on their status in the areas of conception and equal pay.
The divide and conquer tactics that have kept minorities fighting each other for a piece of the pie aren't working anymore. The age of information has exposed politicians who say one thing in one place and another in the next stop for what they are – two faced hucksters.
It's common knowledge that Republicans do better with lower turnouts. Maybe people are just tired of being frustrated by repitition of the obvious. Apathy through numbness.
Who is most harmed by voter suppression laws? They are the majority of vicitms who do not Tweet or engage the Internet in any consistent way; seniors, the poor w/o Internet access, and college kids with Internet access but who may have figured out a way to skirt these suppressive laws.
So your demographics need to be reevaluated when you surmise that because there is little evidence of great concern, folks don't care these laws. Moreover, unless voters are impacted by these laws why would they be energized to do anything about them. Many Americans believe that if it doesn't gore my ox why should I care. That's the emerging American value of "independence" spawned by Right Wing Greed.
Odd. There a lot of stories that state this election will have one of the HIGHEST % rates, in history.
Supression? Why not ask the New Black Panthers of Philly what kind of bats they'll use on non-black people?

I knew by the age of nine that I wanted a nose job. When I shared my wish with my mother, she was horrified. She told me I was just going through my "awkward phase" and assured me that the rest of my face would eventually "catch up" with my nose. Oh, how I hoped she was right.
She was wrong. In fact, my nose continued to grow at what seemed like a much higher rate than the rest of me. I was extremely self-conscious about it, and the occasional taunts and comments from acquaintances as well as strangers did not help matters much. (My personal favorites were the back-handed compliments like "You're so pretty, I almost don't even notice your nose".)
At the ripe old age of eighteen, I got my first credit card, opened up the yellow pages, and called the plastic surgeon with the giant ad promising affordable rhinoplasty with financing available. Within a couple of months, I was on the operating table, drifting off into La-La land under the influence of "twilight sleep" IV sedation.
I woke up feeling incredibly nauseated and barely able to see from the swelling of my eyelids (a not-so-fun side effect of the breaking of one's nose). After my time in the recovery room, I was wheeled out into the outer lobby of the surgical center, where I promptly began to vomit blood---more than I knew I had, in fact. I've always wondered how many potential patients I scared off with that performance!
To be honest, I don't remember much about the pain involved in my recovery, as I was on some pretty powerful pain meds. The only true unpleasantness I recall was that awful feeling of being "stuffy" for about a week and a half.
Finally, the day came to get my first peek at my new nose. I was warned that post-op swelling would not allow me to see my final result just yet. In fact, I was more than a little surprised to hear that it could take up to one full year before all of the residual swelling was gone!
When my surgeon removed my splint and handed me a mirror, I was overjoyed. Even through my drug-induced haze and all the swelling, I could see the face I had always wanted to see. It was like my nose had been a distraction from all that was good about my face. Now the roadblock had been removed, and I truly felt beautiful!
Of course, having the rhinoplasty done did NOT erase all my self-doubt, nor did it launch a new career as a supermodel. Like many women, I still have my share of insecurities about my appearance. In fact, to this day every time I manage to improve anything about my looks, I tend to immediately find a new "flaw" to focus on.
Because of this, I am a nut when it comes to telling people that plastic surgery will not change your life, only your looks! However, having my nose done did have some pretty amazing fringe benefits for me:
- Being less self-conscious made me more fun to be around, and people started responding more positively to me.
- My increased confidence prompted me to start setting higher standards for the way I expected to be treated by others.
- Removing the "easy target" on my face seemed to help give me the courage to stand up for myself in just about any situation.
And now here I am with my 37 year old face and my 18 year old nose, passing on the benefit of my experience to all of you. And I can honestly say that I have never regretted trading in my old nose for a smaller, more refined version.
Have you had a positive experience with plastic surgery? If so, please help others by sharing your story.

Homeboy's Fr. Gregory Boyle to Present 2012 One Book, One Campus
Father Gregory Boyle will share his experiences working with some of Los Angeles' toughest gangs when the Woodbury University campus comes together to explore his bestselling book "Tattoos on the Heart: The Power of Boundless Compassion" on Saturday, August 25.
The Jesuit priest who founded Homeboy Industries will be the featured speaker during the One Book, One Campus program from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Woodbury University, 7500 Glenoaks Blvd., Burbank. One Book, One Campus brings together first-year Woodbury students to engage in a common conversation about important issues. Woodbury sent all new students a free copy of the book this summer, and "Tattoos on the Heart: The Power of Boundless Compassion" will also be a part of a Civic Learning and Leadership class offered at Woodbury this fall.
"Fr. Boyle's offers a powerful personal and professional testament to how lives can be transformed to create better communities," says Phyllis Cremer, Ed.D., vice president, Office of Student Development, Woodbury University. "Education is an essential component of this process, which is why the Woodbury community is using 'Tattoos on the Heart' to talk about how today's students can make a difference for all of us in the future."
Fr. Boyle's book, a series of essays about universal kinship and redemption, has been honored by SCIBA (Southern California Indie Booksellers Association), Pen USA, Publishers Weekly, and Goodreads Choice Awards. The Los Angeles native founded Homeboy Industries to provide training, jobs, and support for former gang members and prisoners. While pastor of Dolores Mission Church in the Boyle Heights neighborhood of Los Angeles, he started the "Jobs for a Future" program, a precursor to Homeboy Industries, as way to offer alternatives to gang life. Fr. Boyle also previously taught at Loyola High School in Los Angeles, served as chaplain in the Islas Marias Penal Colony in Mexico and at Folsom prison, and worked with Christian Base Communities in Cochabamba, Bolivia.
Fr. Boyle has received numerous honorary degrees, awards and recognitions including the Civic Medal of Honor, the California Peace Prize, Humanitarian of the Year from Bon Appetit Magazine, and in 2011 was inducted into the California Hall of Fame. Fr. Boyle has served on the State Commission for Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, The National Youth Gang Center Board and the Attorney General's Defending Childhood Task Force.

Proof that the world is full of F*ckin mornons...cuz It's really shocking what the travelling idiots of the world carry around with them in their carry-on luggage. From January to July 2012, the TSA found 821 guns (691 loaded with 210 locked and loaded) in carry-on luggage at 160 different airports.
They confiscated 821 guns in carry-ons. Of those, 691 were loaded and 210 were locked and loaded. That's an average of four guns per day.
They also found . . .
A live CANNONBALL.
Bear mace.
A knife mounted on a senior citizen's WALKER.
A gun in a hollowed out book.
Live eels and dead venomous snakes.
A gassed-up chainsaw.
And finally . . . a woman wearing a CHASTITY BELT. They didn't confiscate it . . . she didn't have the key so she couldn't even remove it

The first of five Nebraska bills aimed at oil pipelines is set for a public hearing.
The Legislature's Natural Resources Committee has scheduled a
public hearing on a bill by Fullerton Sen. Annette Dubas. The
proposal (LB1) would give the state's Public Service Commission the
authority to oversee siting for major oil pipelines. The commission
would have to approve a pipeline developer's application before the
developer could use eminent domain to make way for such a project.
Dubas introduced the bill during a special session aimed at the
Keystone XL, a proposed pipeline that would cut through the
Nebraska Sandhills and Ogallala aquifer. The project is awaiting
U.S. State Department approval.

Leave Valuables in Plain Sight.
The maid doesn't even need to steal it, although that will be the first person you'll think of. Rooms are often left unlocked and open during cleaning times, and anything in plain sight is at risk of walking out the door. Even when the door is locked up tight, leaving everything out in the open makes it easier for thieves.
Keep valuables like electronics, not to mention cash, tickets to sporting events or theme parks, passports, airline tickets and jewelry in the safe. The best safes are the electronic versions that let you set your own passcode. Many overseas hotels have safes with traditional key locks; in those, you may be better off leaving your valuables in the safe deposit box at the front desk.
For those hotel room safes that won't fit a laptop (I've stayed in many), consider investing in a cable lock. Lock your equipment to something immovable, like the pipes under the bathroom sink.
Let Everyone Know You're Leaving for the Day
Turn off the television and all the lights in the room. Hang a "Please Service Room" sign on your door.
Leave the hint or your "presence" by leaving a television on and turning on a few lights or the radio. I've even gone so far as to leave the "Do Not Disturb" sign on the door. Sure, I may have to call to schedule maid service during breakfast or while I'm at dinner. In exchange for that slight inconvenience, I get peace of mind knowing the room will stay locked up while I'm gone.
Pack the Morning You Check Out.
Rushing around to catch a flight pumps up your adrenaline, and gives you plenty of opportunity to leave smaller electronics behind.
Pack the night before, taking special care to pack away electronics. Just leave out a change of clothes and a few toiletries. You won't be rushed in the morning, and you'll have time for a last-minute inspection of the room.
Don't Look Back
You packed everything the first time, right? Or surely your spouse packed everything. No need to waste time checking.
After you've packed everything, take one last look around. Check under the beds, in the bedcovers, on the nightstand, in all the dresser drawers, in the shower, in the closet, and in the safe. This goes double if you travel with kids.
If Something Is Stolen From Your Hotel Room
Chances are you'll want them back -- or at least have them replaced.
- Immediately call the hotel's manager.
- If the hotel has electronic room locks, ask for a "lock interrogation." This report will tell the hotel staff exactly who accessed your room, and when.
- Before you leave the hotel, request an incident report. You may need it for your insurance company if you decide to file a claim later.

The pair have becomea regular fixture at red carpet atindustryevents, and speculation on the seriousness of their relationship escalated when Clooney, 46,took Larson to the Oscars — the first time he had taken a girlfriend along. Butthe actordenied reports out of Europe that wedding bells were imminent.
"These reports are not true," Clooney'sLos Angeles-based representative told Reuters.
And in case there really was any doubt, Clooney has laughed off reports that he is gay. In an interviewfor Esquire magazine's April issue. He was asked if there was any truth to reports that he is "gay, gay, gay." "No," Clooney said. "I am gay, gay – the third gay, that was pushing it."
But Daniel Day-Lewis? Well, check out the picture to the left. Enough said.

A prolific and precocious springtime "fruit", rhubarb looks like stalks of pinkish green or even magenta celery. Its flavor, however, is much more tart, making it ideal company for sugar in sweet dishes like crisps, compotes, and pie - from which it gets its second name, "pie plant." But rhubarb also lends a puckery-tart fruitiness to savory dishes, and pairs very nicely with pork and poultry.
Types of Rhubarb
There are two basic types of rhubarb found in markets and larger grocery stores: the older, traditional variety, with thicker, greener stalks, and the more intensely-colored, slender-stalked variety, sometimes called hothouse rhubarb. The deep red stalks certainly make for brighter, more attractive dishes, but the concentrated color indicates concentrated tartness, and the greener stalks have a nicely balanced, mellow flavor.
Rhubarb SeasonHothouse rhubarb is available most of the year, while field-grown stalks are available in early spring. The Pacific Northwest has a second harvest of rhubarb between June and July.
Rhubarb Recipes
Rhubarb's tart fruitiness makes it perfect in sweet and savory dishes.
How to Buy & Store RhubarbWhatever their color, the stalks should be heavy and crisp with taut, shiny skin. Watch out for rubbery, fibrous, dry stalks. Wash the stalks well and trim off the dry ends and leaves, and store in loose plastic in the crisper drawer.
How to Prepare RhubarbRhubarb leaves contain both oxalic acid and a more potent, unidentified toxin, so trimming and discarding them is essential. While it's tempting to peel the fibrous skin as you chop the stalks, try to resist it--the skin holds lots of color and flavor.
For a simple snack, dip pieces of rhubarb in honey or sugar.

Correction: The video identifies the Zone 1 Commander incorrectly. His name is Major Timothy Quiller (not Willard).
Last week at NPU-T, the Zone 1 Commander reported that crime has been down all summer and continues to be. There have been arrests of juveniles lately who have been breaking into cars and stealing cars in the Mozley Park area. Zone 1 officers continue to be vigilant in that area and are pushing for the courts to give these repeat juvenile offenders more time when convicted.
In addition, The Commander talked about a slight rise in crime over in the AUC. He says that something must be done, so that these students know not to walk with any strangers or trust any strangers in the area at night. He cited one particular case in which a group of girls were robbed, late at night by a group of men that they followed.
The Atlanta Police Department is working with the Clark Atlanta Police to figure out a solution to help keep students in the area safe.

Weatherford Democrat
WC splits with Ranger
Staff Report
Weatherford College resumed its conference schedule on Wednesday, hosting Ranger College for a double header at Roger Williams Ballpark.
After a slow offensive start, the Coyotes' bats took hold, and the lead, in the bottom half of the fifth frame, erasing a 3-1 Ranger edge in the first game. With two outs, WC put together a 4-run rally, starting with a 2-RBI triple from Hunter Lockwood.
Paxton Delagarza gave the Coyotes the lead with a single, pushing Lockwood across home plate. The seventh brought some drama, as Ranger tried to rally, and did score a run, but the 5-4 win was preserved when reliever Dustin Emmons recorded a 'K' for the final out.
WC missed an early opportunity to put up some crooked numbers in the second game. With the bases loaded and the Ranger pitcher having trouble with the strike zone, all the Coyotes could manage was one run.
The Coyotes got another chance in the eighth, down 3-1 on the scoreboard, when WC rallied for a run and Connor Vandeveer drew a bases-loaded walk to tie the game at 3-all.
Extra innings followed, threatening an end in the top of the 13th, with Ranger pushing two runs across. WC boarded two runners on the basepaths i nthe bottom frame but could not push them across home, losing the nightcap 5-3.
Errors thwart Roos effort against Arlington Martin
Staff Report
The Weatherford Kangaroos had an opportunity to pull out a District 3-5A win in the final inning, but failed to coax the tying run across the plate, falling to the Martin Warriors, 5-4, in Arlington on Tuesday.
Weatherford struck first in the district match, scoring a run in the second and adding two more in the top of the fourth, before Martin tied it up with three in the bottom frame of the fourth. Trailing by two going into the final inning, WHS put up one run but left the tying run on third at game's end.
Although out-hitting the Arlington club, the Roos' defense uncharacteristically surrendered six errors in the ball game, which spelled the difference. The Roos fall to 1-1 in district play, and look to get back into the win column on Friday, when they will host Arlington High at 7 p.m.
Brock blasts Bulldogs in District 9-2A match
Staff Report
Visiting Brock gave itself a 9-run head start on Tuesday, and cruised to a 23-7 district win over the Millsap Bulldogs. While the Bulldogs found some offense in the middle innings, they could not keep pace with the Eagles' bats, who hammered out 18 hits in the game.
Kolbin Mills led the Eagles with seven RBIs, while Shay Phillips and Garrett Gaines added four and three, respectively. Tyler Nelson, who recorded the win on the mound, shared pitching duties with Hayden James. James pitched three innings of scoreless ball, recording five strikeouts during his stint.
WC women split with Temple
Staff Report
Weatherford College softball suffered its first conference loss on Wednesday, hosting Temple at Stuart Field, but got the win right back in the second game of a double header.
Temple used a 5-inning burst in the first match, creating a margin the Lady Coyotes could not close, resulting in a 8-3 loss to the Lady Leopards. Bailee Wortham went the distance in the circle for WC.
Weatherford flipped the score in the second game, making the most of its five hits and winning the nightcap, 8-3.
Aledo High grad Carolyn Clayton was productive at the plate, clearing the bases for a 3-run triple and finishing the day with 4 RBIs.
Kortney Koroll added to the efficiency, hitting her second homer of the day. Starting WC pitcher Kylee Studioso recorded a win in the circle.
WC will end a lengthy home stand on Saturday, hosting McLennan in a double header beginning at 1 p.m.

7. Frank (William Frank)2 Decker (John Reed1) was born in Pennsylvania in June 1870.(4130) The 1900, 1910 & 1920 US census indicates he worked as a coal miner and later a coal mine foreman in Fayette County and in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania.
On November 20, 1890 in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania he married Minty (Araminta or Ariminta) Rugh.(4131) Minty (Araminta or Ariminta) Rugh was born in Pennsylvania about 1873.(4132) A U.S. Census record shows her in the household of her parents in Derry Township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania in 1880. The spelling of her given name (possibly Araminta or Ariminta) on the census form is unclear. But there is other (unconfirmed) information which hints that she may have once been called "Minty". The 1900 and 1910 census shows her as "Mimmie or Minnie" with her husband and family in Fayette County, Pennsylvania. The 1920 US census clearly shows her as "Minty" Decker at age 47 with husband and family in Sewickley Township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. Minty was the daughter of Oliver Perry Rugh Sr. and Anna Margaret Maxwell.
She died in 1953.(4133) She was buried at Carmichael Cemetery (somewhere in PA.).(4134)
Frank (William Frank) Decker and Minty (Araminta or Ariminta) Rugh had the following children:
12 i. Norman3 Decker was born in Pennsylvania in January 1891.(4135) The 1900 US census shows him at age 9 living with his parents in Vanderbilt Village, Dunbar Township, Fayette County, Pennsylvania.
13 ii. Bertha Mae Decker was born in Smock, Fayette County, Pennsylvania on September 27, 1892.(4136) The 1900 US census shows her at age 7 with her parents in Vanderbilt Village, Dunbar Township, Fayette County, Pennsylvania. She died in 1959. She married twice. About 1910 she married Wallace Ward Provins.(4137) Wallace Ward Provins was born in Pennsylvania on June 1, 1873.(4138) The 1880 US census shows him at age 7 with his parents in Masontown Borough, Fayette County, Pennsylvania. His 1818 WWI draft registration card shows him in Scott Haven, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania with his wife Bertha. The 1920 US census shows him as a grocery merchant owning his own home worth $3000 in Industry Village, Elizabeth Township, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. Wallace was the son of Jacob A. Provins and Amy.
He died about 1948 in Elizabeth, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania.(4139) (See Wallace Ward Provins for the continuation of this line.) She married Michael Conley.(4140)
14 iii. Oliver Decker.(4141) Oliver was probably born after his parents married in 1890 and died young before the taking of the US census in 1900. The 1900 census indicates that his mother had given birth to 6 children and that only 5 were living (by 1900). Oliver does not appear with the others in the census of 1900.
15 iv. Frank (Franklin) Decker was born in Pennsylvania in 1896.(4142) The 1900 US census shows him at age 4 with his parents in Vanderbilt Village, Dunbar Township, Fayette County, Pennsylvania. The 1920 census shows him as a single man at age 24 living with his parents in Sewickley Township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania and working as a farm laborer.
16 v. John Decker (living status unknown).
17 vi. Charles F. Decker (living status unknown).
18 vii. Ella Decker (living status unknown).
19 viii. Minnie Decker (living status unknown).
20 ix. Cora Decker (living status unknown).
21 x. Robert Decker was born in Pennsylvania in 1909.(4143) The 1910 US census shows him 1 year old with his parents in Franklin Township, Fayette County, Pennsylvania. He died as a young man in his twenties.(4144)

The North Dakota State Bison have a second straight FCS championship in what's becoming their second home.
Backed by more than 10,000 fans wearing green and gold in the same suburban Dallas stadium where they beat Sam Houston State a year ago, the Bison outnumbered their Texas counterparts in the stands and outplayed them on the field — again.
Quarterback Brock Jensen ran for three touchdowns, including the go-ahead score in the third quarter not long after a holding penalty wiped out a touchdown that would have given Sam Houston the lead, and Sam Ojuri scored twice in a 39-13 victory Saturday.
The field turned into a Bison pep rally after the game as thousands of fans joined a trophy presentation on a stage that makes up one end of FC Dallas Stadium in Fresno, Texas.
"Let's go Bison!" coach Craig Bohl shouted while holding up a Bison hand signal that could be mistaken for the Texas Longhorns' "Hook 'Em Horns" sign. "Best fans in America!"
The Bison, who won 17-6 a year ago, improved to 10-1 in the FCS playoffs with their eighth straight postseason win.
Jensen put North Dakota State (14-1) in front for good on a 1-yard sneak in the third quarter, and Ojuri had a 2-yard TD run on fourth-and-1 after the Bison got the ball with a fourth-down stop.
Ojuri had 92 yards rushing, and Jensen added 44 to go with 115 passing yards. The Bison rushed for 300 yards.
John Crockett had 80 yards rushing, 24 receiving and a threw a 26-yard pass to set up a score on a trick play after taking a handoff.
Bell threw for 255 yards against the nation's best pass defense, but threw three of Sam Houston's four interceptions. Flanders, the school's career rushing leader, was held to 53 yards on 19 carries, a 2.8 average.
Hugh Freeze needed only one year to make a winner out of a Mississippi team that was woeful in 2011.
The coach noted with satisfaction that most experts didn't predict such dramatic improvement in his first season.
Bo Wallace threw three touchdown passes and Ole Miss beat Pittsburgh, 38-17, in the BBVA Compass Bowl in Birmingham, Ala., to complete an impressive turnaround. Ole Miss (7-6) finished five wins over its 2-10 season record in 2011.
"I've tried to learn not to make too much out of a single game either way, but no question this advances our journey a bit," Freeze said. "To be where we're sitting here Year One far surpasses certainly the prognosticators and whatever they had for us. Our guys really chose to buy in and determine we could be who we want to be. We don't have to have someone else determine that."
The bowl win was especially satisfying for veteran players who had no postseason a year ago.
"The best thing is our program is moving in the right direction," said junior linebacker Mike Marry, who had four of the Rebels' 11 tackles for losses. "We're not where we want to be right now but we're moving there."
Wallace, chosen the game's MVP, completed 22 of 32 passes for 151 yards.
Today's game
godaddy.com bowl
No. 25 Kent State (11-2) vs. Arkansas St. (9-3), 6 p.m. (ESPN), Ladd-Peebles Stadium, Mobile, Ala.
What's at stake: Kent State wants to finish its breakout season in style. This is the first time the Golden Flashes have been to a bowl game in 40 years and they've already set a school record for wins in a season. Arkansas State — which has won back-to-back Sun Belt Conference titles — gets a second chance after losing last season to Northern Illinois.
Key matchup: Arkansas State QB Ryan Aplin against the Kent State defense: Aplin owns nearly every passing record in Red Wolves' history after throwing for 10,545 yards and 66 touchdowns in his four seasons. His final game will be against a Kent State defense that has forced 38 turnovers this season, which is the most in the Football Bowl Subdivision. The Golden Flashes also are first in the country with a plus-21 turnover margin.
Players to watch: For Kent State – Junior running back Dri Archer has been the Golden Flashes' primary playmaker, rushing for a team-high 1,352 yards and 15 touchdowns this season. The 5-foot-8, 175-pounder also leads team with 35 catches for 539 yards and four touchdowns. For Arkansas State – Junior running back David Oku has had a productive season after transferring from Tennessee, rushing for 1,054 yards and 15 touchdowns.

June 2011 issue | New agreement eases student transfer process from NCTC to UNT
Subscribe Unsubscribe
From a UNT News Service press release
For North Central Texas College students planning to transfer to UNT to complete their bachelors' degrees, a new agreement between the two schools will make the process much easier.
Named the Eagle Bound Program, the UNT-NCTC Admission Partnership Agreement allows NCTC students who meet the admissions requirements of UNT and participate in NCTC honor program or complete an associate of arts, an associate of science, or an associate of arts in teaching degree, will receive automatic admission to UNT.
"UNT's agreement with North Central Texas College highlights our shared commitment to give the people of the North Texas region maximum access to affordable, high-quality public higher education," says V. Lane Rawlins, UNT president. "This partnership exemplifies UNT's long, close and effective relationship with community colleges in the North Texas region. More than half of UNT's undergraduates are transfer students."
NCTC president Eddie Hadlock added, "A strong partnership between NCTC and UNT is vital to the success of our students, especially since so many students concurrently attend both institutions. To have a formalized joint admission agreement is symbolic of the strong relationship that already exists. We are grateful to UNT for extending their reach to include North Central Texas College."
UNT will have an admissions counselor on the NCTC campuses in Gainesville, Bowie and Corinth to provide individual academic counseling to students interested in transferring to UNT. Transfer scholarship information also will be provided by UNT.
NCTC students who have a TexShare Card will have access to the UNT Libraries and UNT will provide Eagle Bound Program students with an EaglePass card giving them access to the university campus.
This past year, approximately 500 NCTC students transferred to UNT to complete their degrees.

National news in brief, 3/23
District of Columbia
Report: Water could spark future wars
WASHINGTON — Drought, floods and a lack of fresh water may cause significant global instability and conflict in the coming decades, as developing countries scramble to meet demand from exploding populations while dealing with the effects of climate change, U.S. intelligence agencies said in a report released Thursday.
An assessment reflecting the joint judgment of federal intelligence agencies says the risk of water issues causing wars in the next 10 years is minimal even as they create tensions within and between states and threaten to disrupt national and global food markets. But beyond 2022, it says the use of water as a weapon of war or a tool of terrorism will become more likely, particularly in South Asia, the Middle East and North Africa.
The report is based on a classified National Intelligence Estimate on water security, which was requested by Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton and completed last fall.
Dismissal of abuse charges sought
HARRISBURG — Jerry Sandusky asked a judge Thursday to throw out the child sex abuse charges against him, arguing some counts are not specific enough, evidence is lacking in others and the statute of limitations may have run out regarding eight of the 10 alleged victims.
The catchall pretrial motion also sought to delay the May 14 start of his trial, saying more time was needed to prepare a defense.
"We raised a number of issues that we thought were pertinent for various reasons," said his lawyer, Joe Amendola. "But the judge will have to decide that. We'll see what happens."
The omnibus pretrial motion, as it is called, is standard in Pennsylvania criminal cases.
Nils Frederiksen, a spokesman for the state attorney general's office, said the document was under review, and prosecutors planned to respond in writing within a week. An April 5 court proceeding in Bellefonte has been scheduled to hash out any remaining disputes.
Suits filed against Trinity Broadcasting
COSTA MESA — Televangelists Paul and Jan Crouch have faced plenty of mountains as they built up the world's largest Christian broadcaster, but the most recent attack on Trinity Broadcasting Network is coming from within their own family.
The Crouches' granddaughter has filed court papers that include allegations of $50 million in financial wrongdoing at the ministry headquartered in Orange County.
Brittany Koper's lawsuit doesn't name TBN, but another suit filed by her uncle-in-law does. That suit accuses TBN of opulent spending on private jets, mansions and a mobile home for Jan Crouch's dogs.
The lawsuits were filed after Koper and her husband were accused of stealing hundreds of thousands from Trinity.

Many U.S. Senators and Representatives are tweeting opinions, updates, images, documents, etc. these days, and Twitter can be a very useful, if not an essential tool, to learn about what's going on directly from each member, especially regarding controversial legislation such as SOPA.
An easy to use but powerful web tool (it's also free) named PolitickerUSA can save you a lot of time and effort informing you as to what members of congress are tweeting about right now.
In one location you can quickly access the non-stop real-time stream of tweets from Senators, Reps, President Obama, governors, and a few of the republican presidential candidates.
You can also filter the entire PolitickerUSA stream of tweets using a hashtag or word into the filter box. You do not have to click <enter>.
But Wait, There's More
Here are a few other things you can do with PolitickerUSA.
1. Clicking any word or hashtag in a word cloud will run a search on Twitter for that hashatag or word.
2. Politician Trends allows you to quickly isolate and visualize the latest tweets from a specific politician.
3. A table of all politicians accessible using PolitickerUSA is available linking to their Twitter stream and providing their handle.
Kudos to the PolitickerUSA developer Brian for making the site available. You can read more about how he built the site here.

Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 is a 2008 real-time strategy video game developed by EA Los Angeles and published by Electronic Arts. Announced on February 14, 2008,[11] it was released on October 28, 2008 in the United States for Microsoft Windows-based PCs and three days later in Europe. A version for the Xbox 360 console was released. However, the PlayStation 3 version was delayed due to difficulties with the system's architecture.[9] On January 21 2009 EA officially announced Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 – Ultimate Edition[12], the PS3 version which contains bonus material extra to that of the Xbox 360 and PC versions. The Ultimate Edition has been released on March 23, 2009. Also announced for a late March release is the Mac OS version, converted to that platform by TransGaming[10]. The game forms a part of the Red Alert sub-series within the Command & Conquer series of games. In early January, EA Los Angeles announced a new addition to the game: Command & Conquer Red Alert 3: Uprising, a stand-alone single player expansion pack that was released for Windows in March 2009. It was offered via digital distribution.[13]
The game is set in a parallel universe in which World War II never happened (in the original Red Alert, Albert Einstein travelled back in time and removed Hitler in the 1920s. After an Allied victory in Red Alert 2, the Soviet leaders travelled back in time and removed Albert Einstein in 1927, preventing the Allies from creating atomic weapons while the Soviet Union rose to power, battling the Allies in the 1950s. In this game, the Empire of the Rising Sun rises to power as a threat as well (an unintentional result of the Soviets time travelling). All three factions are playable, with the main gameplay involving constructing a base, gathering resources, and training armies composed of land, sea, and airborne units to defeat other players. Each faction has a fully co-operative campaign, playable with an Artificial Intelligence or with another human player online. These campaigns follow a storyline, with specific mission objectives and unit restrictions applied. Unrestricted skirmish play against the computer and multiplayer via LAN or online is also available.
The game received mostly positive reviews, with reviewers citing the co-operative and multiplayer components as strengths, along with the enhanced role of naval combat compared to other real-time strategy games. Commonly cited weaknesses included aspects such as unit pathfinding.

Money managers under the microscope
GAIM 2009: GLG makes a late entry
A last-minute addition to the line-up in Monaco has been GLG's senior managing director Pierre Lagrange, a relatively low profile figure even though the firm is listed on the New York stock exchange. Lagrange was not on the conference's original programme and only agreed last week to speak on "the pros and cons of running an alternative asset management business as a public company" today.
GLG has had its share of troubles in the past, including the Philippe Jabre scandal, last year's departure of star manager Greg Coffey and a hefty chunk of investor redemptions. Perhaps Lagrange is taking on a more public role as the firm now feels it has a more upbeat story to tell. Having pulled off a number of hirings and the acqusition of the UK fund management unit of Societe Generale, the firm said this month that its hedge funds had risen 11.2 percent in the five months to May 31. Meanwhile, expansion into the U.S., Asia and the Middle East is also planned.
GAIM 2009: Paranoid? You should be…
It doesn't take a genius to work out that the hedge fund industry has changed markedly over the past year — a quick glance at delegate numbers here in Monaco shows that.
But one means that shows quite how drastic the change has been is in the area of risk management — not normally the sexiest topic but now an area of real concern for investors.
GAIM 2009: Numbers bear witness to crisis
Attendance numbers are down at this year's Global Alternative Investment Management conference in Monaco. Fewer hedge fund salespeople, fewer investors, fewer stands.
It is not really such a surprise, and not only because the attendee list was visibly shorter this year than in 2008. Of the around 800 registered visitors, perhaps 500 have turned up.
GAIM 2009: Troublesome teens
Growing up can be a painful experience for teeangers with many battles and excesses along the way.
The once young and spritely hedge fund industry is now entering its problematic adolescent years and starting to face up to issues that once seemed fairly unimportant.
Every Cloud…
As politicians and regulators worldwide prepare a new blueprint to marshall the hedge fund industry, the organisers of the GAIM industry conference release the early agenda for their annual Monaco pow wow.
Unsurprisingly, the June 16-18 summit takes the theme: Transformation In A New World Order. And even less surprisingly, several sessions are set to ponder how to best snag a new breed of circumspect investors, and how to adapt to a new regulatory environment.

NORMAN — There are senior nights and then there's what's going on at Norman North tonight where the fifth-ranked and District 6A-2 champion Timberwolves play host to Putnam City.
Because sometimes there's just one, two or three seniors. And sometimes the only real legacy is one of sticking it out despite little reward, which may say grand things about character but something close to the opposite about competitive success.
Almost always senior nights are fun and sweet, yet not necessarily of great consequence.
The North boys suffer none of these reservations. For starters, literally, there are 11 of them, and when coach Geo Claros rolls out his lineup tonight, here's who'll be in it: Ashton Bray, Matt Gann, Garrett Gibbs, Cory Graubenbaur, Ryan Johnson, Trent Laffoon, Curtis McRae, Luke Moore, Jonathan Newton, Alex Spens and Daniel Taylor, seniors all.
It's a funny thing.
They've known each other forever, played on many of the same teams forever, have been close forever, but tonight's probably the first time all 11 will share the same field at the same time against a collective foe.
"There's going to be a whole lot of emotion," said McRae, who along with Bray is headed to Central Arkansas to play college soccer. "We've known each other growing up, we've all gone to school together. It's going to be a fun one, that's for sure, all of us on the same field."
For the most part, it goes back to fifth grade, when soccer first became competitive. All but Bray and Spens play their club soccer in the NYSA's Celtic program, but that just means they've not only played together, but also against each other through the years.
After four years in the same program, there's not much daylight between them.

I took my kids into the local Goodwill store today to looks for albums; usually when I do this, I am lucky to walk out with 1 OK record. The Goodwill by me is usually packed with Christian Folk music or old Christmas albums, being I live in Southwest Georgia. To my delight, here are some of the bands I found:
Pink Floyd, Clash, Talking Heads, Eagles, Dire Straits, Genesis, Elvis Costello, Warren Zevon, George Carlin, and the most prized from a personal standpoint - Frank Zappa. Today was a productive day...16 albums and 2 CDs for $22.00.
Here's the kicker...most of the covers & inside sleeves are semi to pretty beat up. When you look at the actual albums, most look like they were never played (or maybe a couple times), which I find strange. Anyway, I need to research how to clean these and maybe invest in a new cartridge.

Seismic evidence for shallow gas-escape features associated with a retreating gas hydrate zone offshore west Svalbard
Sarkar, Sudipta, Berndt, Christian, Minshull, Timothy A., Westbrook, Graham K., Klaeschen, Dirk, Masson, Douglas G., Chabert, Anne and Thatcher, Kate E. (2012) Seismic evidence for shallow gas-escape features associated with a retreating gas hydrate zone offshore west Svalbard. Journal of Geophysical Research, 117, (B9), B09102. (doi:10.1029/2011JB009126).
Full text not available from this repository.
Active gas venting occurs on the uppermost continental slope off west Svalbard, close to and upslope from the present-day intersection of the base of methane hydrate stability (BMHS) with the seabed in about 400 m water depth in the inter-fan region between the Kongsfjorden and Isfjorden cross-shelf troughs. From an integrated analysis of high-resolution, two-dimensional, pre-stack migrated seismic reflection profiles and multibeam bathymetric data, we map out a bottom simulating reflector (BSR) in the inter-fan region and analyze the subsurface gas migration and accumulation. Gas seeps mostly occur in the zone from which the BMHS at the seabed has retreated over the recent past (1975–2008) as a consequence of a bottom water temperature rise of 1°C. The overall margin-parallel alignment of the gas seeps is not related to fault-controlled gas migration, as seismic evidence of faults is absent. There is no evidence for a BSR close to the gas flare region in the upper slope but numerous gas pockets exist directly below the predicted BMHS. While the contour following trend of the gas seeps could be a consequence of retreat of the landward limit of the BMHS and gas hydrate dissociation, the scattered distribution of seeps within the probable hydrate dissociation corridor and the occurrence of a cluster of seeps outside the predicted BMHS limit and near the shelf break indicate the role of lithological heterogeneity in focusing gas migration.
