SVA Film prepares you to be an independent filmmaker with the most hands-on BFA program in New York City.
- You don't just study films; you make them – all four years.
- Your mentors are working professionals using state of the art equipment and technology
- Your fellow filmmakers are an international creative community who work together to help each other realize their goals.
Independence is the key word in filmmaking. It means having a personal vision. It means having choices in your career – whether that's working for a company or being on your own – or both. It means being able to do what you love for life.
As an SVA undergrad, you can specialize in Directing, Screenwriting, Cinematography, Editing or Sound. You can create a body of work that rivals most graduate schools. Our immersive program has many special features designed to educate you better and faster – like courses which are taught in collaboration by writers and directors, and an integrated curriculum which means you develop work in writing classes, fine-tune it with professional actors in directing, prepare and shoot it in production, and edit in post-production.
While you get a solid start in your specialty, you also gain knowledge in all aspects of filmmaking. The essential experience of SVA Film is collaborative and your teachers and classmates quickly become your partners in creativity. All of our faculty do what they teach –actively contending in today's high tech media marketplace. The relationships you form with your mentors now mean you are already connected to the film industry. When our teachers need to fill a slot on the set or in the studio – who better than the people they have trained themselves? Our students intern at the top production and post-production companies, among others, and are often working before they graduate.
Because your education isn't just academic but hands-on right from the beginning, you learn early what you love and what you're good at. You share your skills working on your classmates' films. Bonds are formed during the intense days and nights of shooting that not only contribute to fine work during school but to career opportunities after graduation.
Film and Television are New York's fastest growing industries -- a $5 billion business that employs over 100,000 workers. Five commercial studios have committed to the new development at the Brooklyn Navy Yards alone – adding an estimated 2,000 jobs in the next year. * The reason for this explosive growth is the talent pool – New York is the place to find the right people with right skills. SVA has long contributed to the city's artistic resources.
SVA is the country's largest independent art school which gives you many advantages as a budding filmmaker. You're in an atmosphere with a rich tradition of innovation and originality. You're surrounded by the best image-makers in media. You're part of the art and idea capital of the world.
At SVA Film and Animation, "independent" is not just a trendy pre-fix for "filmmaker. " It's the creative DNA that makes SVA artists different. We're not just about getting a job, but having a life. A life in which you can keep making the work you love.

Television fault sparks Dringhouses house fire
9:18am Monday 28th January 2013 in News
AN electrical fault in a television is thought to be behind a fire at a house in York.
The fire started in a bedroom at the house in Sandcroft Road, Dringhouses, at about 5.50pm on Saturday.
Two fire crews from Acomb and one from York were sent to the scene.
A fire service spokesman said nobody was injured in the fire, but there was damage to the building.
He said the fire could have been much worse, but did not spread as it was mainly contained by an original stone fireplace in the bedroom.

To New York for finally creating a statewide registry of Basic STAR recipients.
The state Tax Department recently unveiled the online registration platform for homeowners receiving the property tax exemption. The system is designed to eliminate inappropriate exemptions.
The exemption is available for owner-occupied primary residences where the combined income of resident owners and their spouses is $500,000 or less. A Tax Department investigation, however, showed that some homeowners were receiving the exemption on more than one property, which helped prompt this registration initiative.
Homeowners will not have to re-register every year as, based on the information provided in the registration process, the Tax Department will monitor homeowners' eligibility in the future. Senior citizens who receive the Enhanced STAR exemption will not have to register.
"Local assessors monitor Basic STAR in their communities, but do not have the ability to know if an individual is receiving STAR in any of the other 1,000 localities statewide," said Commissioner of Taxation and Finance Thomas H. Mattox in a media release. "This is the first registration in the STAR Program's 15-year history, and it will eliminate inappropriate and fraudulent exemptions."
We applaud the state for taking this simple, common-sense step to close this loophole that has cost the state and local communities untold tax money.
To the "Weekend Smash" event to benefit the Oneonta Outlaws.
"As we use the field, we're finding out that there's a lot of things that are not there that we need, which are very expensive," owner Gary Laing said. "We're finding these things out so that, in the future, we can make improvements to the field and the area around it."
The two-day event featured a casino night on Friday, a family day at Damaschke Field on Saturday, and closed with a performance by folk-rock band America on Saturday night..

Increasing sales taxes is not a good solution to the state's fiscal crisis in any longer run. Yet there is a compelling case in the short run for raising the local option sales tax in Knoxville and Knox County to the full 2.75 percent permitted by state law. (It's presently 2.25 percent atop the 6 percent levied by the state.)
This case starts from the point of departure that in all probability local option sales taxes are going to be abolished in Tennessee within the next year or so. Indeed, their abolition came close to being enacted by the state Legislature this year. Getting rid of them is not an ideological issue; it's a purely pragmatic one that draws support across the entire political spectrum.
The impetus is that setting a uniform statewide rate is a prerequisite to enabling Tennessee to start collecting sales taxes on catalogue, Internet and other "remote" sales that presently go untaxed. UT's Center for Business and Economic Research has estimated that by 2003 the state will be missing out on $500 million in annual revenue due to its inability to tax these rapidly growing sales. To say the obvious, capturing these revenues can make an enormous contribution to overcoming the state's financial woes. But it will take an act of Congress to enable the state to do so.
Bipartisan legislation that contemplates such enablement is being sponsored by Democrat Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon and Republican Rep. Christopher Cox of California. Under the Wyden-Cox bill, states that adopt a uniform state sales tax code would become eligible to start collecting, provided that a "sufficient number" have done so. Tennessee has been in the forefront of efforts to produce such a uniform code, which would preclude the variant local option sales tax rates that presently range from a low of 1.5 percent in two Tennessee counties to the 2.75 percent max in 28 counties.
What has all of that got to do with the case for raising the rate in Knox, you say. The answer is, a lot of revenue that would be lost to Knox citizens.
Under all the bills before the Legislature for abolishing local option sales taxes in the name of uniformity, localities would be reimbursed by the state for the amount of revenue foregone as a result of abolition. These reimbursement levels set the base for what are termed "hold harmless" payments that would also entitle localities to a pro rata share of the future growth in state revenues over and above the base.
For the fiscal year ended June 30, local option sales tax revenue in Knox County as a whole totaled approximately $142 million. Raising the rate to 2.75 percent from 2.25 percent would increase the take—and thus the base for hold harmless payments—by about $33 million. The accompanying table breaks out these totals into their component parts.
At first blush, raising the rate may look like just another tax increase, at least until abolition occurs. But this ain't necessarily so. Indeed, in the extreme case, all the additional revenue generated by a sales tax increase could be returned to taxpayers via a property tax rollback. Thus, a prospective claim to $33 million in additional state revenue could be established at no cost to local taxpayers collectively. Or, said the other way around, failure to stake this claim could cost local taxpayers $33 million, which should certainly rouse their ire toward elected officials responsible for the failure.
Granted, substituting sales taxes for property taxes, even in the short run, would be regressive in that a larger part of the tax burden would be borne by non-property owners with generally lower incomes. Moreover, such a substitution could be deemed a sham and thus jeopardize hold harmless payments.
As it happens, a number of county commissioners are already mulling a referendum to raise the sales tax as a way to deal with Superintendent Charles Lindsey's unmet demands for additional schools funding. In his annual budget message to commission in May, County Executive Tommy Schumpert said, "I want to tell you and the superintendent that the level of new funding he is requesting to run the school system he envisions is probably only achievable by passing a county-wide referendum increasing the local option sales tax by one-half cent." Lindsey had been seeking a $13.8 million increase in the school budget to $289 million but got less than half of what he sought.
Schumpert stopped short of recommending a sales tax increase referendum, and some of the commissioners who now lean toward one are doing so in the belief that it would be voted down. Rejection by the voters, it's reasoned by these negativists, would squelch Lindsey's demands for more money to fund the "internationally competitive school district" that he's been heralding for two years but hasn't defined very well.
Positivists, epitomized by commission's finance committee chairman, Frank Leuthold, recognize that the school budget has been very lean for the past two years and will be again next year when county elections, by all tradition, preclude commissioners from voting for a tax increase. Yet all tradition also points toward a big property tax increase in the year following the election—an increase that could be obviated by getting the voters to approve making maximum use of the county's sales tax entitlement while the getting is still good. Leuthold recognizes the wisdom of this strategy. So does Mayor Victor Ashe from the city's standpoint.
Time is of the essence, against the prospect that the window of opportunity could close in the state Legislature next year. In order to get a sales tax referendum on the ballot in conjunction with this November's city election, commission must resolve to do so by its Aug. 27 meeting. If Lindsey can get his act together by then, better that the resolution stress additional school funding. But in any event voters should be afforded the opportunity to protect a $33 million source of revenue for this community.

It's has been claimed Madonna [Unlink]'s latest single has been plagiarized from a track by a Brazilian musician.
Brazilian musician, Joao Brasil has claimed the chorus of Give Me All Your Luvin', which Madonna performs with Nicki Minaj [Unlink] and M.I.A., is a copy of his own tune L.O.V.E. Banana. Brasil's record company executives and legal team are now weighing whether to take court action.
Brasil claims to be a staunch Madonna fan saying she is his heroine "I still don't understand what happened. I'm a huge fan of hers. If it's plagiarism, then even better" and is adamant that he doesn't want to sue her. Brasil said personally I don't want to do anything. The last thing I need in my life is a fight with Madonna.

In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering's annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.

John Harrigan: Wolves, snakes, reading
By JOHN HARRIGAN
Woods, Water and Wildlife
Anyone who would get a thrill out of howling like a wolf — and maybe getting an answer — might want to sign-up for a survey planned for various locations in northwestern Maine.
Hunters, wardens and wildlife biologists believe there's a pretty good chance that wolves are trying to re-establish themselves in the ancestral range to the northwest of the Rangeley Lakes. Conservationists and U.S. Fish and Wildlife biologists are looking for a few dozen people to sign-up for "howling surveys" to see if any wolves howl back. A training and information meeting was held yesterday at the Fields Pond Audubon Center in Holden, but there's probably still time to call and sign up.

200 or BUST.
4:23. At work. Explaining to someone the tradition that is Tim Wakefield.
So, betting time. I've got all my imaginary money on a win. That's approximately 127,450 imaginary dollars. Imaginary dollars that I was saving for my imaginary boat and my imaginary high-interest mutual fund. It's all I have left after purchasing my imaginary island last week with my imaginary savings. If I lose it, I'll be marooned.
What do you think, Soxies? Is today the day that Father Time… um… Father Tim will deliver double hundreds?
See you in a few hours!
6:15. Getting off work. Step closer to being able to watch entirety of actual game…
HILARIOUS story about Alex Rodriguez on Deadspin (thanks, Jeb!).
New York Yankees star Alex Rodriguez played in an underground, illegal poker game where cocaine was openly used, and even organized his own high-stakes game, which ended with thugs threatening players.
Check it out while you tailgate.
7:15. Okay. Carlos Carrasco. There's something funky about the video on MLB.tv today… anyone else experiencing this? Checkerboards? No? Just me.
Jacoby chops to first. First out.
I wish they would stop spitting in public. It's embarassing.
This is frustrating already. two outs. Sorry, Pedroia. I thought it was a homer too.
Gonz has an extremely dramatic single. Jacoby would have made that a triple. But whatever. The crowd goes silent as Youkie steps up to the plate. Okay. I may have assisted with the mute button on my computer…
Okay. They're picking on Youkilis. The announcers say they're picking on Youkilis. STOP PICKING ON YOUKILIS.
Thank you. With that complete and utter fail, Cleveland, you stopped. And helped my husband have one hell of a double. Okay, sound. You can come back again.
Papi at the plate. This MLB feed is really going to annoy me. I can tell. Base hit! Youkie! Gonz! 2-0 lead. 2-0. I like how this is going. Yes. Go team 200. That's what I will call you all today. Team 200. Do it for Wake. Do it.
Carl Crawford, buddy, pal, friend, let's widen the cushion, shall we? Let's spread out that cushion like a picnic blanket. Like throat coating cough syrup. Like… like a home run.
Out. Okay. Um. First inning. Two runs. Okay.
Top of the second. 7:29. Travis Hafner. at the plate. Strike two.
Youkie in the shortstop spot (????) throws him out.
Carlos Santana who has shifted from catcher to first base? What a weird game.
Okay, announcers. I don't want to know how well the batters hit against Timmy. This is not helpful information for my pro-200 mindset. You will go on mute again. Mute, I say.
Steeeerike. First K of the night.
Knucklin'. Knucklin' your way to 200. Knuckleballs look so silly. I wonder how they look coming at your face. Judging from the confuzzled expression on Konerko's face, not pleasant.
Throws it in the dirt again.
Um. Let's not do that.
Tim turned 45 yesterday? Why didn't I know that? I would have thrown a party.
A-Gonz shoves in the out.
7:35. I am so tired, guys.
Bottom of the second.
Not. A. Good. Sign for my awakeness…
Cleveland, I'm sorry your pitcher lost his last five starts. Really. And I'm sorry that tomorrow it will be six. Heidi Watney, I really don't care about this. Thanks.
Reddick. Base hit. At the wall. Dramatic single. One out. But Joshy on first.
That ball almost hit Baltimore… wayyyyyy on the bottom of the wall list.
Marco Scutaro kind of looks like this guy I went out with this this one time. Not sure why I've never noticed that… my, what an awkward memory.
Good swing by Marco Scutaro? Um, Remy, a good swing is going to be when it's out of the park and we're two runs scarier.
Full count for Scut. See, I'm not worried- because Jacoby's up next.
Fly to center… catch. Out.
Whatever, let's see you, Jacoby.
Ball one. Okay. We can walk there. That's fine. My computer keeps freezing on ridiculous expressions in the audience. Like this guy in a pink plaid shirt with his mouth open. He is clearly a Cleveland fan.
No offense, Bheise. You would NEVER wear that shirt.
In the air to right. Makes the catch. Ends the second. Okay. That's fine.
0-2. Top of the third. Tim Wakefield is about to be a badass. You'll see.
Any minute now.
Pop out. Jacoby's all over it.
Any minute now.
He just smirked. Was that a badass smirk?
Yes. Yes it was. Second strike out for Tim Wakefield.
That's KK, for those of you paying attention at home.
Two outs.
Ground ball. Easy out.
And then Scutaro kicks it.
Scutaro kicks it?
Scutaro kicks it.
Bunt. Out at first.
Okay. Scut… you better go shake Gonz' hand.
Up the middle, base hit for Pedroia… our 5th hit of the night, by the by… on a new 5 game hit streak… Okay.
25 game streak broken by the White Sox. That one hurt.
Gonz tries the bunt. Not so much with the success.
Pedroia tagged out. Pedroia!
"That's a helpless feeling for a baserunner, when you take off too soon," announcer said.
Caught stealing. Bah.
Gonz grounds into the shift. Obvious out- but he runs for THAT one, notice.
Shut up, Heidi! Youkilis is batting.
Ball and a strike. I just love the Youk chant. It's like a moan, really. Ball and two strikes. Two outs. Come on, baby. I believe in you. Want me to clap? I'll clap. I can do that. Hell, it worked in Peter Pan.
Clearly, you are not Peter Pan. End of inning.
39 pitches for you, Timmy. 40th… a strike. And a fast ball.
Home run.
Okay, Timmy.
Okay. Breathe. 200. 200. Just repeat that. You know. 200 times.
Hopefully this won't take 200 tries.
Zeeeeerooooo outs.
Ball bounces. Ridiculously.
Clearly witchcraft. 2-2. Tie game.
Yeah, Salty. I think you SHOULD talk to Tim Wakefield. Maybe you should talk to him longer. NO outs. 2-2. 8:05 p.m.
Wild crazy pitch puts the guy to third.
Okay. Wakey. Okay. Let's just calm down.
This inning is gross. Let's start over. Or. Um. End it. Or something. Wake?
52 pitches. Tonight a year ago collision at the plate with Santana? Yeah. Let's not repeat that. I'd rather Wake just strike you the frick out.
Like he just did. Making it KKK.
55 pitches. Okay. Let's give that lonely out some friends. Two, to be specific.
Pedroia catches.
2 outs.
Thank you. Sit down.
Papi walks.
And, in the announcer booth, we're talking about Tito bobbleheads. I really, really want one. Is that wrong? Will you buy me one?
"Where's his finger so I can dislocate it again?"
That's a bit much, announcer. A bit much.
A bobblehead night?
Doesn't make the catch- Ortiz stopped at third, double for Crawford. Lovely. Kismet.
Second. Third. ZERO outs. ZERO.
One out.
But BASES LOADED!
Marco Scutaro.
Strike 2.
Come on, Marco.
Come on, Marco. Stephen King is watching.
3-2 lead.
Okay. Okay.
I mean, it's not a grand slam… but… at least we avoided a double play.
2 outs. Carl at third. Marco at first. Jacoby at the plate. Scut steals.
And crap.
Anddddd we start the bottom of the 6th with an out.
And about fifteen yawns from me.
And two outs. Blast.
That was a dramatic fail… and we're on first.
Of course, it may be moot, because Marco's up.
Out. That was fast.
Top of the 5h. 8:30 p.m., but it feels like midnight. Wake… can you do this quickly? Thanks.
Thanks. 1 out.
Crap. And one on first.
2 outs. Okay. Okay. Guy on second. Whatever, guy on second. Wake promised this would be fast.
First and second. Okay. And Asdrubal is up to the plate.
3 outs. Thanks be to Fisk. I'm so sleepy, guys. So sleepy…
Gonz and Pedroia are trying to wake me up. It's sweet. Thanks, guys. But it's not working. Youk is going to load up the bases. He will.
2 outs.
Papi. Papi.
And the fifth crashes. Like I am about to…
Hi, Timmy.
Tim Wakefield. Please?
Oh no. Alfredo Aceves is warming up.
Oh no. Wakey, you can do it. I believe in you…
200. 200. 200. 200. 200.
Tim. 200. Tim.
He is stressing me out. Are you watching this? Is anyone watching this?
Tito looks stressed out. And Salty, I hope that's stress, because you are causing some plate scariness with your not catching.
Okay, One on first. One on second. two outs.
Oh. AND IT IS TIED AT THREE-THREE now.
Tim is gone. And I have this sinking sleepy feeling that this is only the beginning of our journey to 200.
Top of the 7th. I am too tired to yell at you, Randy Williams.
It looked fair to me too, Jacoby. It is 9:20.
3-3. top. 8.
Nothing changes.
This game will clearly last forever.
Youkie. Fix it.
Ball four. Leadoff WALK.
Tony Sipp. Whatever.
Mike Avilles pinching. This is the first time I'll really see you in action, Mike. Can I call you Mike? Papi. Oh, Papi. Swing and a miss. 'Course.
Zero outs, Aviles on first.
Aviles steals second. This Aviles, he's alright.
Pop out. Papi.
Carl. Can I call you Carl?
Seriously. Ties cause me to lose sleep. Fix this, Carl. Be a buddy.
Out on strikes.
Okay. Um. Aviles is still in scoring position. One out left. So. Um. Salty?
Oh no. Justin Masterson tomorrow. Oh no. I am so conflicted. I loved him so.
Right. Back to the actual game.
13-1 Yankees? Really, White Sox? REALLY?
Salty. Yes. Salty.
Strike three.
This game is stressful. I know what will make us ALL feel better:
You're welcome.
The 9th. An out.
Second out.
Crowd on its feet. Wish we were there.
Strike out.
Score. PLEASE.
Hi, Darnell McDonald.
FAIL, Darnell McDonald. Go. Sit. Down.
Oh, Marco.
Marco Scutaro.
One out left.
ONE OUT or extra innings. And I can't stay awake, people.
Jacoby, if you CARE about me at all…
OHMYGOD. You… you love me… you… you really love me…
I love you too, Jacoby. I love you too.
"Just want to try to drive the ball."
You did, Jacoby. You did.
I love Paps' victory face. I love it.
"We're going to compete until the last out," Jacoby said.
There's just something wrong with Yankee fans.
As a whole. I'm not talking about you. Why are you reading a Sox blog anyway?
Seriously. There is something wrong with them.
A new poll found that Derek Jeter is tied with Babe Ruth as the greatest Yankees player of all time, the New York Post reported Friday.
So. Um. I'm going to give you a minute to digest that.
I'll be over here.
Bad news for baseball.
Baseball lost another of its own today. Not my favorite player. Not my favorite team.
Former Yankees pitcher Hideki Irabu was found dead at his California home yesterday.
But very, very sad.
Suicide suspected. Since "retiring" in 2002, it's been a checkered life, with bar fights and ridicule. Remember Steinbrenner's "Fat Toad" remark? Sad events like this remind us all that, despite our passions, it is just a game. And they are just people. And it's sad that anyone ever felt this alone.
Rest in peace.
Hey, don't blame the media. Blame Baloo.
Looks like Big Papi blames more than C.C. Sabathia for the rock that hit him in the leg.
"You guys like to criticize us when we (screw) up?" he said. "Criticize yourselves now."
Now, Papi. You know I love you. I'm going to blame this rant on your pain, k, and breeze over your logic.
Because ESPN didn't hit you with that pitch, Papi.
Baloo did.
And… the media, see… the media capitalizes on what the AUDIENCE wants. The rating points. People complain about the media (stepping on a larger soap box now) and its divine influence, but it's not the media. If media could dictate desire, Paris Hilton's new show would be a success.
The rivalry gets media focus because it gets fan focus.
That's how the chicken and egg works. Chicken (you) then egg (media).
Like Charlie Sheen. No one WANTS to write about Charlie Sheen. I don't WANT to write about Charlie Sheen. But you can visibly tell when the anchor says the word Charlie Sheen- because the ratings points go up. Before. Your. Very. Eyes.
And, since the media relies on commercial dollars, and commercial advertisers rely on media people watch, we print Charlie Sheen. We light up the screen with Charlie Sheen. Ratings go up. We make money.
Not because of Charlie Sheen.
Because of you, America.
Because of you.
The media does not throw pitches.
CC Sabathia throws pitches.
You dig?
And, while I'm on this soapbox, THIS, ladies and gentlemen, is reason number 4 why we will ALWAYS need NPR. And why NPR is one of my dream jobs. Because I would love to work at a place where I didn't have to Charlie Sheen my way through the day's news.
And Charlie Sheen is just one example. Think about it.
So, dearest Papi, blame the bear. Not the beast.
And the nation is relieved
While we wait on this dang-blasted rain (that's what they say in North Carolina. I prefer downpour of torrential irritation), let's reflect on the best news of the day:
Quick, cue the parade!
And all is right with the world.
"I fully expect he'll be hitting second tomorrow," Francona said.
Pedroia took the train back (with Jenks, also on the DL! I have a much different reaction to that tidbit) and got all checked out. And he's fine. Thanks be to Fisk. Because news earlier today said he could be out for a month. Pedroia says its his leg that has caused his hitting slump. What do you do to fix a bone bruise, anyway? Oh. Ouch.
"Bruised bones are extremely painful and, unfortunately, the pain lasts and lasts."
"Scientists investigate the possibility that bone bruises are predecessors of future problems."
Okay. Research is depressing.
So. Let's cease.
Did you know Pedroia is afraid of flying? Me too. That means we're soul-friends. (Soul-mate is still K-Youk. Ah… K-Youk…)
Another fun fact- did you know Joba's out?
And, if you enjoy the Stankee rivalry, you'll enjoy this article about what happens when a "Yankee cast-off" hits New York. Nice review of last night's pounding if you missed it: "On Wednesday night, the Yankees got a taste of what they let go. "
"It doesn't matter which team we play," Aceves said on Thursday, in Spanish, when asked about facing his former team in the Bronx with the crowd yelling for the Yankees to rally.
"We just want to win against every team. There isn't a particular enemy."
Oh, Alfredo. You are fricking adorable.
Now if only Salty would get better…
Okay, rain. You done yet? We've got some Stankees to sweep.
LOL Sox puts out its most hilarious image yet!
PS- New York, thanks for your hospitality. In honor of you, I am including a YouTube video of NYC from Annie. In my imagination, it's being performed by Derek Jeter and Nick Swisher. But you're not in my imagination. I still think you'll see the resemblance.
PSS- If you're looking for a good live blog- I found one that's just as annoyed by the rain as I am. That blog will be fun to read if we complete the sweep…
10:48. Okay. It is too late. The governor is coming tomorrow. I have to tour a new ASU facility. I have to finalize Sunday centerpiece. I have things to do.
I am not going to watch this whole game.
I am not.
But damnit, Josh Beckett! Did you not hear the GREAT THINGS I said about you? Don't, don't, don't let me down.
Do you want to SHARE the top with the Stanks, Josh? Because it gets awfully crowded up there.
11:05. Did you know the guitar strings on today's version of Google make noise? Seriously. Go to google.com right now. FDA showed me this and now I can't stop. I can play Silent Night. And part of the Beauty and the Beast theme song. Angela Lansbury would be so pleased.
Right. The game.
I'm watching. I'm watching. Geez.
11 p.m. So, found a live pro-Yank blog. Would be more fun to read if, you know, we were winning. Pro-Yank blog hopes A-Gonz gets hit with a pitch.
I hope Derek Jeter swings so hard his arm falls off.
11:08. Does C.C. remind anyone else of Baloo from the Jungle Book?
You know, but evil?
And stoned?
11:13. Fading fast.
I have reeeeaaalllly got to go to sleep. Think you kids can handle this? You know, without the Carolina cheerleader? Because I have to get up so early…
FDA, I'm leaving you in charge. Don't let them lose. I mean it, FDA.
11:15. Someone seems to have a litttttle problem defining the STRIKE ZONE.
Damnit, FDA. Part of being in charge is yelling at the Umpire. Loudly. Do it.
11:17. You know. Life is a lot like a Disney movie.
11:18. I am really glad I found my airport bottle stash. That will keep me awake. For at least a hot minute.
11:19. "I know Varitek has never really been a threat…"
The things people blog about!
Go Posada yourself.
11:22. This is going to be a looooooooooong game. Google string thingy is so much more fun than this game.
11:23. Yeah. Sleep. Now.
Win. Please?
Do it for the Bruins. They need your inspiration.
11:25. Cervelli, your name sounds like a bacterium.
11:27. Okay. NOW I'm asleep.
11:28. Well, clearly not NOW. One can't be asleep when one is saying that one is asleep.
11:29. You get my point, right? I can sleep now?
11:30. I canNOT sleep when Curtis Grandersnot is at the plate. Blah.
J-Beck. Please do not let Grandersnot on a base. Please?
Or walk him. Sure. Yeah. Okay.
Time to get mad, Beckster. Time to get mad. Let's see anger-face. No. Not that. That is NOT anger.
11:35. Okay. I want to hit Alex Rodriguez with a pitch as much as you do, Beckett, but loading the bases… that's a bit much, don't you think? Is this one of your show-off moments were you load them up then slam them down?
11:37. Oh, thank you. You really had me going, Beckett. I never doubted you. Never. You know. Except that one time in the first inning when you handed Curtis Grandersnot a homerun on a silver fricking platter. You know, that time.
11:41. The. God. Of. Walks.
You know. And awesomeness.
11:44. You hit Papi with a pitch and it is on. Remember this, Stanks. You have been warned.
Bottom of the fourth. Really sleeping. So. Um. When I wake up. This will be fixed. Better. Yes.
Oh, Google…
8:05 a.m. And THAT, ladies and gents, is how I like to start my day.
PS- That live Yankees blog is a dead link this morning… shame…
Okay. Okay. Okay. Let me see if I can hold a straight face while I type this. Joe Girardi. Joe GIRARDI and the New York Yankees "don't appreciate" Ortiz "pimping" his homer last night.
The NEW YORK YANKEES are criticizing US for egotism.
Let me retype that.
The NEW YORK YANKEES think WE have a bad attitude.
"He kind of rubbed it in our face," Russell Martin said.
Should I continue to analyze that or can you get the funny by yourself? Having trouble? Here you go.
Nope. Couldn't do it with a straight face.
And, BY THE WAY, sports pundits. I used to be a dancer and THIS is not a pirouette.
THIS is a pirouette.
And, while going over the news of the day, when was the DH NOT COOL?
PS- I HATE Tony Randazzo.
Now. Bruins. I sincerely hope that David Ortiz has inspired you.
Please don't Canuck yourself today.
Stankees, I have never been so happy to see you.
This is the series that will push us over the top.
Most importantly, this is the series that will keep us from watching another Heat game. No offense, Aunt Sally. Go Heat!
Oh, Stanks. How I have missed your silliness. It is much more fun to shake my fist at you than that Dirk guy. He has REALLY long arms. Am I the only one who thinks his arms are irrationally long?
Oh, Stankees. You are the Bentley of our internal Bachelorette. If you get that, I feel sorry for you.
And yay, hockey. We've still got this. Can't wait for tomorrow…
A Stankees series AND the Stanley Cup. Beat this. Please.
Another heartbreaker
That's what they're calling last night. Not just a heartbreaker- ANOTHER heartbreaker.
The tear jerking, rip your heart from the platform and sacrifice it to the firegods kind of heartbreaker.
Okay. That may be my own interpretation. But Dan pretty much says that in THIS ARTICLE.
And the Sox won. Oh. Right. The WHITE Sox. WRONG COLOR, PEOPLE.
We lost Rich Hill. To a crap throw.
And gave Whitey an excuse to use the term "fearless" to describe one of their players.
''Everybody dug in and [came] to play and get good at-bats all this week,'' Guillen said.
See, Red Sox? CAME TO PLAY. That's what you're supposed to do. AND UMPIRES, COME TO UMP.
Add to the pressure of our leg shattering fall from the top of the ALE- Dice-K may really, really be done for. At least for 2011.
So Wakefield? Aceves? What to do? What to do? I am still with the – leave John Lackey on the DL and take a chance on Wakefield until he can't hold the ball and the walker at the same time… but that's just me.
And here's an interesting article about the Yankee-Red Sox rivalry and how dead it is:
The bitter divide between the Yankees and the Red Sox seemed to fade when Red Sox fans watched in horror as Johnny Damon put on a Yankee pinstripe uniform in 2005. With a clean-shaven face, Damon wasn't Damon anymore.
Really? Because the Damon thing was my last straw. It did the opposite of fade that line for me…
Rivalry dead? Thoughts? I don't think so.
But what do I know? I spent last night with a punching bag and Keystone Light.
Oh, and cake.
You know, the trifecta of a healthy Wednesday evening.
3:56 p.m.: Ran into THIS interesting survey. Dice-K: Worth it or not? What do you think? Could we have done 2007 without him?
Rain… okay, we get it. You're wet.
Thanks to the wet stuff, we've got a double header with Buchholz and Beckett at the mound, respectively.
But hey, we also got a rest day. Kind of.
A wet, icky rest day. A much well deserved wet, icky rest day.
And the Stankees? They got another loss to Seattle, Lauren's new most favorite non-Red Sox, non-Marlins team.
So Red Sox, today I'm going to ask you to play your socks off. Don't do it for me. Do it for Seattle. And the stankcrushing they have done for you.
Ahhhhhhh… ALE. It's lonely at the top… but someone's got to be up here. Nice view, though. I think I can see Cleveland…
We meet this Verlander guy we keep hearing so much about today… I hear he's okay.
And… oh no… oh no… Jenks could be… back soon…
But let's not worry about that today. Let's not… damn it. Let's distract ourselves with THIS neat article on players on the cheap. Like Salty… and THIS article on how awesome we are…
PS- Super important decision to make. How exactly should I vandalize Jeff-the-Tigers-fan's cubicle Monday? I was thinking real brooms, but I don't know if that's dramatic enough. I might paper his desk in pictures of brooms. I don't know. But I feel like my conscience is telling me it should involve brooms…
Oh! And Bard has an excuse for sucking lately! (kinda) Wait, when was that sucky game? So, spread the word if you're in the DC area.
And, by the way, as of 10 a.m., our 4-streak is tied with Arizona as the number one streak in baseball…

Editor's Note: This story was updated at 4:54 p.m. Aug. 31, 2012 to include a clarification on funding for the program detailed in the article.
The Fraud Assessment Commission awards the grants through the state Insurance Commissioner's office.
Funds for investigating and prosecuting insurance fraud cases in Temecula and Murrieta will most likely get reimbursed through a county-wide, $2.4 million grant, it was announced Thursday.
The state insurance commissioner awards the grants based upon the determination of funding by the Fraud Assessment Commission.
Riverside County regularly seeks grants from the state to combat crime and this award is the latest, officials said.
Owners of a Temecula-based company were prosecuted with funds from a state grant, according to Riverside County District Attorney spokesperson John Hall.
The company was called Citywide Roofing, owned by Dale and Caryn Kizziar.
The couple allegedly committed fraud on multiple levels, according to the District Attorney's office.
The most significant type of fraud allegedly committed is called "x-mod" fraud, according to Hall.
Dale Kizziar and his wife allegedly fraudulently enhanced their employees' experience level on paper in order to pay them commensurate salaries, Hall said.
The couple also allegedly paid employees in cash -- without taking taxes out -- and failed to pay workers' compensation insurance and unemployment insurance to the state, Hall said.
The total loss caused by the Kizziars' fraud was $768,996, Hall said.
In February of 2011, the defendants were convicted of two counts each of insurance fraud.
They were sentenced to six months in jail and three years probation, Hall said.
County and state officials decry economic conditions as factors in a surfeit of unemployed workers not having taxes taken out of their cash salaries, officials said.
"That, unfortunately, has significantly contributed to increased workers'
compensation and automobile insurance fraud throughout the Inland Empire," said DA Paul Zellerbach.
"It is through these types of collaborative efforts with the California Department of Insurance that continue to allow this office to actively investigate and prosecute these types of crimes which have a significant negative impact on our local economy."
For the fiscal year 2013, Riverside County was awarded the following grants from the Fraud Assessment Commission:
- $1,488,786 to combat workers' compensation insurance fraud;
- $650,000 to combat regular automobile insurance fraud and;
- $336,247 to combat organized, or urban, automobile insurance fraud.
The grant money will cover the salaries and benefits of five prosecutors, seven investigators, one paralegal and one investigative technician assigned to the insurance fraud units within the DA's Special Prosecutions Section, Hall said.
California Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones said, "I am pleased today to announce $2.4 million in grants to the Riverside District Attorney to fight workers' compensation and auto insurance fraud.
"Workers' compensation insurance fraud drives up the cost of workers' compensation insurance and hurts honest business and our economy; Auto insurance fraud drives up the price of auto insurance for consumers."
In another case, Keith Trull in 2009 reported to Murrieta police that his motorcycle had been stolen from a fast-food joint's parking lot, Hall said.
He collected from his insurance carrier, GEICO, but an anonymous tip led to an investigation.
The case was referred to the state Department of Insurance for investigation, where agents learned from witnesses that the defendant frequently complained about money worries.
Investigators were told by witnesses that Trull said he either needed to make more money or get rid of some of his "toys," Hall said.
"One witness stated that, on several occasions, Trull said that it was not difficult to 'get rid' of a motorcycle and that any number of things could be done to the motorcycle so that he could collect on the insurance money," Hall wrote.
Trull was convicted of two counts of insurance fraud and sentenced to four years probation, Hall said.

Just hours after U.S. Rep. Bob Turner, R-Forest Hills,, the senator's reelection campaign worked to turn the announcement into some fundraising muscle for her.
An e-mail from the Gillibrand campaign immediately asked residents for a $5 contribution to "show [Turner] what he's up against."
The e-mail was titled "Rush's Guy," a reference to the fact that Turner's former company, Multimedia Entertainment, helped to create Rush Limbaugh's short-lived television talk show in the early 90's.
In the e-mail, Turner is connected to Limbaugh on multiple occasions. Ultimately, the state goal of the e-mail is to help push Gillibrand over $100,000 in donations by the end of March.
Turner said earlier this week that he plans to ask for the Republican nomination for the Senate at the New York State Republican Convention in Rochester.

A three-man crew kept busy on Presidents Day removing 23 trees in the area of 11th Avenue and Washington Street in downtown Olympia.
The trees — 19 Monterey shore pines, three cedars and one white birch — were removed because of damage caused by insects and a storm last year or because the trees were blocking
sightlines for pedestrians and drivers, according to the state Department of Enterprise Services. Most were about 15 to 20 feet tall.
Crews with Arbor Care Tree Specialists of Astoria, Ore., began removing the trees about 8 a.m. and were expected to be finished Monday afternoon.
Here's how the landscape changed Monday:
• The pines were removed from above-ground concrete planter boxes near the northwest corner of the Natural Resources Building. They also were removed from beds above the 11th Avenue entrance to the parking garage and in a row along 11th Avenue.
• The cedar trees were removed from the southeast corner of Washington Street and 11th Avenue.
• The white birch was removed from the south side of the Pritchard building.
Enterprise Services will not replace the trees in the planter boxes, but instead will plant medium and low-growing native shrubs that do not require as much maintenance.
"The boxes do not have fall-protection for workers, making it difficult to maintain trees and taller shrubs," Enterprise Services said in a statement.
The shore pines along 11th Avenue, and on either side of the parking garage, will not be replaced immediately because the best replacement species are still being researched.
The cost to remove the trees, plus grind nine stumps, was $3,800, according to Enterprise Services spokesman Steve Valandra.Rolf Boone: 360-754-5403 firstname.lastname@example.com theolympian.com/bizblog

Three gray busts with hollowed out eyes sat to the left of Virginia's chief medical examiner, their congenial expressions eerily at odds with their solemn purpose.
Instead of the names of the men they depicted, the sculptures were identified only by the dates and locations that those men were found dead.
Created by FBI anthropologists and artists based on skulls found in Northern Virginia in recent years, the representations were part of an ongoing effort to identify at least 220 sets of nameless human remains in the state — what Chief Medical Examiner Leah Bush on Thursday called a "silent mass disaster."
Particularly galling, a third of the cases are thought to be homicides.
"We have killers walking free," Dr. Bush said.
The busts were the third set of three, each set from a different region of the state.
Dr. Bush said she hopes a family member or friend will recognize the individuals from the claylike faces presented at the Manassas, Va., district headquarters of the chief medical examiner. If someone comes forward, officials will do a DNA test to determine whether they are a match.
"DNA is the last resort. These cases we're working now are cases that have been long-term unidentified," said Rochelle Altholz, state administrator for the medical examiner.
Officials were quick to note that the sculptures, which they called facial approximations, were not exact representations but rather impressions of what the men might have looked like based on the size and shape of their skulls.
The three men whose remains were depicted in the displays were found with skulls in good condition, which the FBI used to estimate likenesses, Ms. Altholz said.
Many times only partial remains are discovered, making the identification process more difficult.
The first bust was of a black man in his mid-30s, standing between 5-feet-7-inches and 5-feet-8-inches tall, Dr. Bush said.
A National Park Service maintenance worker found the remains near a bike path off of George Washington Memorial Parkway under the Theodore Roosevelt Bridge on Jan. 16, 2003. The remains had been there for about six months, U.S. Park Police Sgt. Paul Brooks said.
The second bust depicted the features of an Asian man between 5-feet-5-inches and 5-feet-9-inches tall in his late-30s or early 40s.
Sgt. Brooks said the remains had been under the Woodrow Wilson Bridge near Fords Landing Way in Alexandria for approximately 18 to 24 months before a man walking his dog found them on Feb. 13, 2011. The area is also known as Jones Point.
Police asked anyone with information to contact the criminal investigation branch at 202/610-8737.
The third bust represented the remains of an older white male, 5-feet-5-inches tall to 5-feet-11-inches tall. Fairfax County Police spokeswoman Lucy Caldwell said police believe the man was homeless.
A man and his dog looking for deer bones in the woods near Interstate 66 East and Route 7100 in Fairfax discovered them on April 6, 2006.
The man had a small Bible in his pocket and a broken rosary. He wore a brown leather belt, Lee jeans, a polo shirt with Kelly green stripes, Nike shoes and a windbreaker, Ms. Caldwell said.
Based on writings they found nearby, police searched in Denton, Texas; Ohio; Vienna; and the District for relatives but did not find any. Ms. Caldwell asked anyone with information to contact Detective Chris Flanagan at 703/246-7860.View Entire Story

As befits its title, the conclusion of Ulrich Seidl's Paradise trilogy is far more upbeat than the others. His story of chubby 13-year-old Melanie (Melanie Lenz), sent to weight-loss camp, still makes acerbic fun of the bourgeois, but his treatment of Melanie and her campmates is positively tender and affectionate.
This droll, remarkably controlled comedy chronicling one day in the life of a multigenerational family prepping a celebratory dinner in their cramped Berlin apartment buzzes with life. A sunny delight, it has catapulted young director Ramon Zürcher to the forefront of German cinema. Winner, New Talent Grand Prize, Copenhagen 2013.
Daniel Kehlmann's irreverent, globetrotting "fictitious double-biography" of early 19th-century mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss and his contemporary, explorer Alexander von Humboldt, is brought to the big screen in glorious 3D by Detlev Buck. Epic in scope and occasionally very funny, this is the Age of Discovery as you've never seen it before. Special 3D Presentation.
Time is one of the most intriguing things to think about. (Of course, it's not a thing at all—we call it a dimension.) Director Philipp Hartmann puts his chronophobia to fascinating and occasionally funny use in this philosophical, psychological and very German investigation into the phenomenology of time.
Making glorious use of both its BC locations and luminous lead Nina Hoss (Barbara), Thomas Arslan's revisionist Western follows a band of German immigrants traversing the wilds on the Klondike Gold Rush trail of the 1890s. Betrayal, romance, the unforgiving wilderness and Arslan's cool style make this a unique filmic odyssey.

WSBI/ESBG's Training and Consultancy Services, in association with the Sparkassenstiftung für Internationale Kooperation (Germany) and the Bank Training & Consultancy (Vietnam), has been active since February 2008 in providing training to Lecturers of the Banking Academy in Hanoi and the Banking University in Ho Chi Minh City. This project, funded by a grant from SECO (Switzerland), is scheduled for completion in December 2009.
The deliverables of the assignment included a training needs analysis to confirm the initial terms of reference, followed by the development of 8 seminars on modern banking and training techniques. These seminars, which have a duration of 1-2 weeks, are subsequently being implemented two banking universities by an experienced team of international and local training experts retained by the consortium partners.
As of the end of June 2009, 4 of the 8 seminars had been delivered;
The two-week seminars on Lending Processes and Commercial Bank Management (which includes a computer based simulation) were delivered respectively during July and August 2009. The longer-term courses were delivered during the holiday months as a request from the banking universities so that the seminars would not interfere with the normal teaching activities of the Lecturers.
The attendance and evaluation results of the 4 seminars delivered until now are encouraging. On average, 28 Banking University Lecturers attended and successfully completed the seminars (over 30 in Hanoi and about 25 in HCMC), and more than 80% of the attendees have rated the courses as good or very good. Cooperation between the consortium partners is going very smoothly, and SECO and the Banking Universities have on several occasions praised the work performed.
