In baseball, trend-spotting tends to be based on statistical analysis. In fashion, it's driven by runway shows. And when it comes to social networks, the ascendant paradigm for forecasting the future seems to center on first-person anecdotes and unsupported hearsay from random teen-agers.
Earlier this year it was Josh Miller's unnamed 15-year-old sister who drove the media conversation around the alleged decline of Facebook and the rise of Snapchat, Instagram and Tumblr. This week it's a post on the social-media blog Mashable by a 13-year-old HelloGiggles correspondent named Ruby Karp. Her post, headlined "I'm 13 and None of My Friends Use Facebook," has garnered some 36,000 Facebook shares since it was published on Sunday. It has, predictably, launched a fresh armada of blog posts heralding the imminent fall of the great social network.
"Is this the beginning of the end for Facebook?" one asks. "Is Facebook hurtling toward irrelevance, or is it already there?" wonders MSN. Mashable's own Todd Wasserman was moved by Karp's post to speculate about whether Facebook is the next Yahoo. The Huffington Post this week is hosting a live video segment centered on the question, "Without Teens, Does Facebook Have a Future?"
That's an interesting hypothetical. But - call me old-fashioned - I'd prefer to draw data from a slightly wider sample than Ruby Karp and Josh Miller's sister before drawing firm conclusions about the death of Facebook among teens. To be clear, I'm not saying that posts like Miller's and Karp's are without merit. When analyzing the prospects of billion-dollar companies whose fortunes rely in significant part on their cachet among young people, it's great to hear from some actual teens now and then among all the middle-aged talking heads. But the sweeping generalizations some media outlets were quick to make on the basis of Karp's blog post left me wondering: Did they actually read it?
"Although I do have a Facebook, none of my other friends do," Karp writes. "My friends just thought it was a waste of time." But Karp says she soon discovered that "Facebook is useless without friends," adding, "My only friend is, like, my grandma."
OK, got it. Facebook is dead to Karp because none of her friends use it. But wait - that's not the only problem with the social network. Two paragraphs later, Karp adds that Facebook is also dead because all of her parents and her parents' friends are on it. And why is that a problem? Because, Karp says, "my friends post photos that get me in trouble with those parents."
Ah yes - the old "parents are ruining Facebook" problem. But wait a minute: If none of Karp's friends are on Facebook, how do they keep managing to post such troublesome photos on the site? The contradiction is compounded when Karp goes on to lament that "Facebook is also a big source of bullying in middle school." Kids might "comment something mean on a photo of you," she adds, "or message you mean things. This isn't Facebook's fault, but again, it does happen there." How middle school bullying happens on Facebook if no middle schoolers are actually using it, Karp's post does not explain.
Yogi Berra once said of a St. Louis restaurant, "Nobody goes there anymore. It's too crowded." Karp's critique of Facebook seems to amount to, "No teens go there anymore. It's too crowded with other teens."
When I asked Karp via email about the apparent contradiction, she told me the kids getting in trouble on the site are mostly older kids, while those in her age group don't use it at all. I'm not fully convinced - I suspect Karp has a lot more friends on Facebook than she realizes, given a recent Pew study that found it remains by far the most popular social network among teens, even as others are gaining some ground.
As Slate's Amanda Hess put it, "Teen-agers Hate Facebook, but They're Not Logging Off." That's consistent with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg's recent assertion that the company's own internal data shows the number of teens on Facebook holding steady over the past year-and-a-half.
Facebook could go a long way toward defusing the "teens are quitting Facebook" narrative by releasing actual data to back up Zuckerberg's claims, but it refuses to do so. The company, then, must take part of the blame for the media's overreliance on cherry-picked anecdotes. Still, I'll take a Pew survey over a first-person Mashable post any day. And besides, my 13-year-old nephew does use Facebook, and so do a bunch of his friends. But that doesn't make for a catchy headline.
My goal here is not to bash Karp, though. Indeed, in our brief email interview, the 13-year-old was careful to add a crucial disclaimer: "My experience is limited to where I live," she told me, "and the people I go to school with." Funny how the professional tech bloggers who ran with her story seemed to overlook that point.

Ordered Rosewood and it is RED, not near the actual color of rosewood. Construction and packaging are excellent. Please note that the "vertical window lattice" is on only one side of the screen. The other side is 5 blank panes per panel.
- Would you recommend this to a friend? Yes
We absolutely LOVE this Rice Paper Room Divider! We actually bought it to cover a hot water tank in our laundry room and it is perfect. The color is simply awesome and the design is beautiful! We didn't even have to assemble it which made my husband very happy! ;-) Highly recommended.
- Did the color match the color displayed onsite? YES!!!
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Excellent!
- How accurate was the sizing? On point!
- Would you recommend this to a friend? Yes
I would have given it a five but the rosewood is definitely rose. More red than I expected. Luckily it works with the rugs I have. If not I would have sent it back for a different color.
- Would you recommend this to a friend? Yes
We needed something to block the late day summer sun in our living room, and the options included $10,000 in floor-to-ceiling shades, or a screen like this item for under $200. I was pleased to find a taller screen at Overstock, and it works well enough for what I bought it for. It also blends in with our new NW contemporary decor which includes Asian accents.The screen is also not that heavy, so I occasionally move it to block off a view into our living room from the street.

HUNTINGTON, W.Va. -- Doc Holliday isn't unlike any of the real-estate magnates who made their fortunes in South Florida.
He got in on the ground floor, at a time when few others from the outside gave it a second thought. He worked. He cultivated. And, in the end, he was bathing in riches when everyone else was fighting like hell for their own piece of the pie.
Of the 34 Floridians on Holliday's current Marshall football roster, 18 of them come from Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties, one of the most fertile recruiting areas in America. He takes the entire Thundering Herd into prep football paradise Saturday, when Marshall visits Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton.
Back when Holliday started prospecting in the area, more than three decades ago as a young assistant at West Virginia University, there was no Florida Atlantic to compete with for recruits. No Florida International, either. No University of Central Florida or University of South Florida. They were either tiny Division III programs or they weren't even figments of an ambitious university president's imagination.
In those days, few schools outside of Florida's Big Three of Florida State, Florida and Miami mined for recruits in the area. Holliday remembers only a handful of coaches on that trail ... not that he minded.
"When we went down there, it was like Christmas Day, man," Holliday said. "I just picked out the ones I wanted, got on my plane and came home."
He pulled Steve Grant out of Miami in 1988 and the linebacker rewarded WVU's faith by winning back-to-back team MVP awards. On his second go-round on the Mountaineers' staff in the 2000s, he recruited quarterback Geno Smith and receiver Stedman Bailey out of Miramar. And all those two did was finish among the most prolific at their positions in WVU history.
The gravy train found its way to Huntington, too. Quarterback Rakeem Cato and receiver Tommy Shuler were teammates at Miami Central High and both had record-breaking 2012 seasons. Defensive back Corey Tindal, who has helped Marshall's defense rebound from last season's dismal performance as a nickel back, is from Lauderdale Lakes.
Holliday's secret was no real secret at all. According to former WVU Coach Don Nehlen in his book, "Tales from the West Virginia Sideline," it was just a matter of hard work.
"Doc never left any stone unturned," Nehlen wrote. "He completely surrounded a player. The mother, the brother, the aunt, the sister, the girlfriend all knew who Doc Holliday was, because he took time to find out who they were and make their acquaintance.
"I think than in all of the 17 years that Doc and I recruited in Florida," he continued, "I never went into a house where the mother didn't give him a big hug."
There was a reason Holliday went that extra mile, and it can be found in the all-time records at several schools.

Robuchon a Galera: The bread here is worth a trip to Macau, where a "bread chariot" is rolled up to the table. Baskets follow different themes, from basic (baguettes, sourdough) to savory (bacon-and-mustard-seed baguettes, cheese breads) to sweet (chestnut breads and apricot-walnut rolls). Robuchon a Galera, Macau; +853 2837 7666
Caprice: The only Michelin three-star French restaurant in Hong Kong offers mini baguettes, whole-wheat buns, flaky sesame rolls and thin-sliced olive bread. The main draw, however, is the butter – salted and unsalted -- from Brittany. Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong; tel: + 852 3196 8860
Cafe Gray Deluxe: Each table gets a loaf of sourdough, which undergoes a 48-hour fermentation process before it is baked. Flax seeds are added for extra texture, and it is served with labne, a thick Middle-Eastern yogurt dip that's drizzled with olive oil. The Upper House, Hong Kong, tel: +852 3968 1106
BLT Steak: Popovers, a light egg-battered bread similar to Yorkshire pudding, is the carb of choice here. Crispy on the outside, with soft moist layers inside -- rip one open immediately as it is best consumed hot. Ocean Terminal, Kowloon; tel: +852 2730 3508
Prime Steakhouse: Extra large gougeres, or cheese breads, come to the table in a rustic paper bag. Think of it as a cheese-filled cream puff that is addictive to boot. Elements, Kowloon; tel: +852 2311 3108
Gaddi's: First, go for the fluffy slices of beer bread, which carry a distinctly nutty note. Then move onto the bacon-stuffed croissants. If you have room left, try one of the many baguettes or the olive bread. Peninsula Hotel Hong Kong; tel: +852 2315 3171
Amber: The selection of biscuits rolls, baguettes, and wheat bread is simple. But every piece is executed flawlessly, leaving customers fully satisfied. The Landmark Mandarin Oriental Hong Kong; tel: +852 2132 0066
French Window: All six to seven varieties of bread are baked in-house and served with butter from the famous cheese maker Philippe Olivier (whose cheese is also carried in the restaurant). Try the parmesan epis bread, puff pastry cracker and rye baguette. IFC Mall, Hong Kong; tel: +852 393 3812
Sevva: The east-meets-west assortment here -- including scallion crepes and banana bread -- is a reflection of owner and fashionista Bonnie Gokson. The organic sourdough is sourced directly from the famous French baker, Poilane. Prince's Building, Hong Kong; tel: +852 2537 1388
The Drawing Room: The pain du lait, or "farmer's loaf," is the highlight here, and it pulls apart into four pillowy sections. Thick slices of olive-oil drenched focaccia, mini ciabattas, and crispy grissinis provide an Italian smattering of nibbles. Everything is served warm. JIA Hotel, Hong Kong; tel: +852 2915 6628

A post-apocalyptic tale of a man and his son trying to survive by any means possible.
Margaret: David:
The Road
Review by Margaret Pomeranz
Another January opener that is a kind of horror film is THE ROAD. Everyone who has read Cormack McCarthys Pulitzer Prize winner will remember that it is a gruelling, compelling experience, a post-apocalyptic horror story about a man VIGGO MORTENSEN and his young son KODI SMIT-MCPHEE trying to survive in a world devoid of food or clothing, where humans have turned into feral cannibals, where every step is dangerous.
The Australian filmmaker John Hillcoat directed THE ROAD from a screenplay by another Australian, London-based playwright Joe Penhall and, despite the challenges of the book they have come up with a compelling film.
The despair that creeps into the man as he tries to bring his son up within a moral code in a world which seems to have none is palpable in MORTENSENS performance. KODI SMIT-MCPHEE is only slightly less satisfactory as the boy whom I remember had a real strength in him in the book. SMIT-MCPHEE plays him more plaintively.
Its true that the film is very faithful to the book, except for flashbacks to life at home with the wife and mother played by CHARLIZE THERON. But nothing could really match the absolute gripping nature of the read, even though this film gives it a very good shot.
Further comments
MARGARET: David?
DAVID: You can't imagine how it could have been better made, though, as a film.
MARGARET: Yes.
DAVID: ...very, very powerful, and it's interesting that there have been a number of films and books written about a post-apocalyptic Britain, or made about a post-apocalyptic period. I guess DAYBREAKERS is about that too, and ZOMBIELAND even, and it's fascinating that we are so fascinated by what's going to happen; what could happen if there is some terrible catastrophe to...
MARGARET: Well, what interests me is really McCarthy's very jaundiced view of human kind that really comes through in both NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN and this film. He doesn't hold out much hope for us.
DAVID: No, but the film is so beautiful. In this sort of stark, austere grim way it's incredibly beautiful, and I think Viggo Mortensen and Kodi Smit-McPhee - I think they're both very good. It's interesting - another sort of father/son relationship like we saw in LAST RIDE a little while ago, which was also very, very powerful, I think. And this is a beautiful relationship.
MARGARET: Yes.
DAVID: I was very, very moved by the film and I think it's very good.
MARGARET: I think the Australian connection is really lovely too.
DAVID: Oh, yes, it is.
MARGARET: I'm giving this four stars.
DAVID: Yes, me too, four.
Your rating: The Road
Comment: A well made film - very true to the book.
I am glad I read the book first and then saw the movie - nice to be prepared for the bleakness.
The time went very quickly - I felf fully engaged during the entire film - always a good sign.
When your attention wanders and you are aware of being in a cinema there is usually a problem with the film.
Not the movie to see if you are feeling depressed, but excellent in all respects.
Comment: This is a brave film and I loved it. It is a story about maintaining the fire of faith in life and humanity which is a small ray of light in a sea of darkness. Viggo Mortensen's performance was worthy of Best Actor awards. Direction, great and film score poignant by Messrs Cave and Ellis. I found it to a be a very real story. The Earth has been trashed and its ssurvival of the fittest. If we take heed, this does not have to be our destiny. If central banks liquidate the world economy we will all become scavengers.
Comment: Brilliant performances, captivating and so very depressing but one of the best movies I've seen in the last years. Well done!!
Comment: I saw THE BOOK OF ELI first. (To be released in mid-April in Australia) Both are similar except ELI is far better. The Road has a stupid script. A teenage boy calling his Dad "Poppa" all the time, and Dad carrying the kid on his back as if he was a 3-year old. Lacks the action that the Denzel Washington Book of Eli has, which also has far better music.
Comment: When one of the great novels of recent years is done justice on the silver screen, one can only breathe a sigh of relief. This adaption is not only quite faithful to the book, it is beautifully filmed and extremely well-acted by Viggo. Indeed I found it quite a moving experience, and judging by the sombre stillness in the cinema at it's end, so did my fellow patrons. Only a couple of moments felt .. off-topic, where the film-makers failed to resist puritanical pressure and introduced clumsy religious references that were certainly not part of the book. Otherwise superb.
Comment: This is a great book but only a good movie. I agree it is very well acted and the cast is superb but it is simply not a movie.
It fails to capture the essence of the story and leaves you feeling as though you have part of a picture rather than the whole.
Some novels should remain just that and this is one of those. Better out there
Comment: This film always had an unimaginable task to achieve in recreating a book that explored the best and the worst about what is mankind, especialy considering McCarthy's writting style. Although its lack of accuracy in the the finer details is to be expected, I was dissapointed to see the neglect in recreating the constant snow and ash, the depressing monotony of the pairs' struggle, the pure shock of events that really underlined what humanity is capable off. Book aside, I wish someone would shut that freaking kid up...
Stay at home and read it.
Comment: This was an awful movie with no redeeming features. The innocent naievity of the child was overdone and the overall story obfuscatory. The child's role was patronising and I felt the whole question of what is morality was not even asked. Just a boring, depressing trudge through a world where good and bad are black and white and everything else was gray!
Comment: this was probably a good enough movie but talk about depressing. I went on a Saturday night for a bit of escapism and nearly ran out half way through. Between the cannibalism, refernece to child sexual assault, starvation, grief..I thought it was well acted but also felt they escaped a little too often for it to be realistic - just became tiresome. Hated the ending
Comment: A brilliant film. Haunting and harrowing. I have never been so moved and devastated by a film. Agree with David that it is hauntingly beautiful. I could not take my eyes off the screen. I can understand why the critics below found it difficult to watch a film about the break-down of humanity and morality. It is a confronting film and raises age-old themes of human nature and individual welfare versus the common good and good vs evil etc. I found the relationship between father and son beautifully rendered. The ending provides a ray of hope in a bleak world.
Comment: If this had been a purely Australian film, everybody would have been saying, "Why do Australian films have to be so unredeemably bleak, and why can't we write dialogue?" I haven't read the book, so can't comment on whether it is a good translation to the screen or not. I saw Romulus my Father on TV recently, having seen it in the cinema on release, and was bowled over again by young Kodi Smit-McPhee, but he had very little to do in this film except look frightened and trudge along beside Viggo Mortensen. A very dreary viewing experience.
Comment: Rosie and Gloria I have to agree with you. My husband and I nearly always agree with Margaret and David (when they agree) but this was as boring as bat shit. I would have fed the kid to the cannibals and been done with it.
Comment: I was disappointed. The object of the novel was to show the visceral love of a parent for a child (and possibly, father for a child) that is so strong it will endure the "end of the world." The continual attempts to draw in Charlize detracted from that, as did Vigo's overacting. He would have been right at home on the cannibal bus, and did we really need to see him die 4 times? Kodi though was faultless (if a little plump).
Comment: Scenario;Boy says Pappa!Man says Why are you following us.Hide in ditch.Light a fire.Repeat over & over & over.....zzzzzz.
No one ever sees a fire.
Comment: This is an important film. A terrible insight into what we are capable of. Also of the hope we place in our children to salvage a future, once we've destroyed the present. I was horrifed and moved. Cormack MaCarthy has written bravely and provocatively. The themes will resonate with me for a very long time. I don't want to survive the apocalypse! Full marks to the cinematic creation of a devastated world. Viggo Mortensen was terrific, though I was less drawn in by the child. Robert Duval is a bit of a ham and needed to chew the scenery less.
Comment: A most depressing film, but held me right to the end.
Comment: I selected this film for a boys night out at the movies and was subsequently ridiculed for my selection after it finished. I, however, drove home, went straight to my sleeping wife with our first child inside her still, and gently kissed her, so overwhelmed by just how much she and my child mean to me. I long for films that can move me in such ways.
Comment: Outstanding... amongst the backdrop of post-apoplectic horror, is a magnificent poignant story of love between a father and son.
Comment: Hard to say you enjoy such a movie-so grim and emotionally demanding , but the sheer gift of the bleak visuals and the intense delivery by Viggo Mortenson makes it one that you will remeber for a long time. It is great to be reminded of your humanity and this film shines in it's message. Very sadly overlooked by the Oscars who are only interested in box office popularity.
Comment: So bleak and horrific is this film, it should come with a warning.
I agree with those who felt little/nothing for the father and son characters.
Comment: Loved this film, although the ending was disappointing.and embarrasing tp watch.
This ending seemed to erase and cancel out all the previous drama of the film. It hust did not fit.
Comment: Was definitely underwhelmed by this film. It was so implausible, I never believed it for a minute. Kodi McPhee-Smit (very good in Romulus My Father) was totally miscast. He looked too well-fed. And the cigarette lighter that never died after months of use? Both father and son lived way too long under the circumstances. The only character who moved me was Duvall's, and as others have commented, the flashbacks did little to illuminate the story. I can definitely see why it didn't receive any nominations. I give it one star for Duvall and one for cinematography. I couldn't recommend it.
Comment: The Road is a bleak, dark and gloomy journey into the mind of humanity where only brave movies venture.
The outcome is a fairly impressive and strangely beautiful story about the strong bond between father and son and good guys and bad guys.
The cinematic aspects of the film carry it along well at the slower stages - The cinematography, score and especially the visual production are frighteningly realistic and ever so memorable.
The Road leaves a strong impression with the viewer.. And hopefully a turn we will never take.
Comment: There's very few films in which such limited dialogue portrays such a powerful story, Samson & Delilah being an obvious comparison. A faithful follow on to 'No Country' where the viewer isn't treated to the obvious and is made to think, long after the film has ended. The values are there all right, as is an uncomfortable set of messages about the human condition - who are the good guys? Agonising and gripping, its a movie about hope.
Comment: Loved it! did the book justice which was a very pleasent suprise
Comment: Deliberately ambiguous (which is the film's strength); some poignant moments but doesn't add up to very much.
Comment: Astonishing movie. Bitingly realistic, terrifying and scary!
Everything in the movie was very well done, I can't really see any flaws (other than it missing an element that lets it really pack a punch, but still it's very moving, the kid is amazing).
Pathetic that it wasn't nominated for any major awards, Globe or Academy, and you get the likes of Avatar sweeping the nominations. The Oscar show is truly just a ratings competition and it's sad, as this film deserves accolades for its beauty and originality. See it.
Comment: I think you do need to read the book to appreciate the movie. It's not too clear what the moral of the story is. Margaret knows because she also knows No Country for Old Men. It's not so much about the father and son relationship but about the handing down of community and morality from generation to generation. The bleakness without it is what the devastation is about, and the look of despair of Viggo's face as he dies for fear of it being lost is a brilliant substitution for the text.
Comment: A beautiful film, sad, desperate, bleak. Yet there existed a moving touch of humanity. It ripped my heart out. Viggo is my most favourite male actor in the world.
Comment: Two people trudging along trying to survive a winter wasteland and avoid the bad guys. The film was faithful to the book, other than flashbacks which added little, but it failed to illuminate a somewhat pointless story. A guy next to us giggled continuously, and a woman behind walked out. It was beautifully filmed and Viggo Mortensen's acting was a redeaming feature, but still not enough.
Comment: McCarthy's 'Blood Meridian' quite reasonably showed the American Republic beginning in a charnel-house, 'The Road' says just as reasonably it could end the same way. It's pointless to say he has a 'jaundiced view' of humanity. This is solid work by Hillcoat and his stars and great production design. The back-story is that (ouch) it lingered in post-production for a couple of years then (ouch) took less than $10m in US box office. Now Hillcoat's latest production has just been canned.
Comment: I saw The Road at Norton Street Cinema and I have never seen so many people walk out of a movie before.
When the dialogue wasn't incomprehensible it was totally underwhelming.
I enjoyed the book, and even though I don't suppose you have to like the characters in a movie I have to say I felt nothing for the man or the son.
Bad casting, bad acting or very poor script?
Just another very ordinary movie in the great long line of the same.
Comment: I nearly always agree with David and Margaret, and before I watch anything, refer to this site. I have to say I was a little underwhelmed by this movie. I agree with Sonya - I felt as if I was missing something. There wasn't enough info provided about the apocalypic event and the flashback scenes were not that helpful and a bit random. All in all, a very depressing film. If there's any kind of silver lining in it, I guess I came out of it more appreciative of my lot in life.
Comment: there sort of was a starkness of beauty (albeit fake). The movie couldn't possibly go anywhere. I'm a real movie lover (arthouse mostly) but there was nothing remotely redeeming here. I went to sleep, wanted to walk out, but my husband wouldn't do that. I usually agree with you two or one of you at least and I don't know what to think now. I may have to stop watching/reading you.
Comment: The more I have thought about this movie the more I feel how perfect it is. I thought John Hillcoat's directing of The Proposition was a 5 star effort and this is another. The movie is horrific and bleak, but it is also so beautiful, sad and touching. The father and son relationship was played so well, almost heartbreakingly so. I can't praise this movie enough. Absolutely amazing.
Comment: This film frightened me, repulsed me and made me cry - what a powerful piece of cinema
Comment: Every bit as good as I thought it would be. The movie stays pretty close to the book but there are moments where I felt more moved seeing the story acted out on screen. Highly recommended & worth seeing whilst it remains on the big screen too despite the sombre tone of the subject matter. Viggo should get the Oscar for this role if these awards wish to remain relevant to movie-making globally.
Comment: An amazing movie. One which has me looking forward to future John Hillcoat films. Also introduced me to Cormac McCarthy who wrote the novel.
Disappointing that it wasn't nominated for a Golden Globe, although it doesn't surprise me given the oligarchical nature of these ceremonies.
Comment: i agree with everything margaret and dave said but would like to add that i found the score by Nick Cave and Warren Ellis added sooooo much to the movie. So beautiful and simple and atmospheric! That piano theme has stayed with me for days and days and days!
Comment: This was very disappointing. I haven't read the book but felt that I shouldn't have required prior knowledge before watching this film. This drawn out go no-where piece made no sense, the flashbacks added little value as they did not add to the story. I didn't really like the characters, they didn't develop enough for me to care. Who were they, what had happened to the world? I also found the director's morbid fasciniation with cannibalism OTT. The acting wasn't bad, they just had little to work with. 2 stars for how it was filmed, the bleakness was haunting.
Comment: Amazing characterization from Mr. Mortensen,
this is definitely an award for him.
The movie does the book great credit and with the exception of the extended role of the mother, which personally I didn't find added a great deal.
Thank you for a movie that makes us feel.

First Pitch: 1:10pm CDT
Radio: Twins Radio Network
Know Thine Enemy: DRays Bay
What better way to celebrate America's birthday than by matching those old traditional rivals, the Rays and the Twins. Or something like that. At least Canada Day is come and gone. Hey, hosers - get your own long holiday weekend, eh?
Valencia is 4-for-4 against Price in their career matchup, but other than that it's safe to say that Price has either owned the opposition (Cuddyer is 0-for-9) or he hasn't seen them (Thome, for example). In general, Price has dominated Minnesota: 21.1 innings, 26 strikeouts, 1.69 ERA. He strikes out a lot of batters, doesn't walk many, and he doesn't give up many hits, either.
Price can pitch. The Twins will need to prove they can weather the storm if they want a hope in hell of winning today.
Brian Duensing has made 15 starts this year, and he's failed to complete the third inning twice. He has no chance.
Okay, it's not that bad. Duensing did manage three quality starts in June, along with three wins. But he gave up a lot of baserunners and got bombed once and frankly, after staring at Shields's stats for a half-hour, I feel like the ol' Duenslinger is bringing a water pistol to a Bazooka fight. Good luck, son. You'll need it.

Hi and welcome to WebmasterWorld - I am sure you will be able to learn and share a lot over here. Any page that is ranked well at major search enignes will have to be well optimized - as and when required. In addition, if you have paid listing at AltaVista and Ink that won't help either, if your page is not optimized. There are many threads over here about Themes and other stuff that can be very helpfull, I would recommend you to read them, it will surely help. God Bless.
halfmoon, The cloaked page is slightly different from the page the user sees--I took out tables ect.
I am not sure for what reason you have cloaked your pages, but still I would like to say that, there is no magic in Cloaking, it can only hide the source code from all but few specified ip address and host names [I am assuming you are using ip based cloaking].

COLES et al v. RITZ CARLTON RESIDENCE et al
Filing 21
MEMORANDUM AND/OR OPINION. SIGNED BY HONORABLE NORMA L. SHAPIRO ON 6/12/2013. 6/14/2013 ENTERED AND COPIES E-MAILED. (aeg, )
ANTHONY COLES and
RITZ CARLTON RESIDENCE and
Before the court is defendants' motion to dismiss plaintiffs' first amended complaint.1
Plaintiffs Anthony Coles and Michael Casino allege that, on January 20, 2012, they went to the
Ritz Carlton Residence ("the Ritz") to look at a condominium unit. Plaintiffs allege they viewed
a model unit and were rushed off the premises. As they exited, plaintiffs were stopped and
handcuffed by police officers. Plaintiffs were detained for about thirty minutes and then released.
They allege a Ritz employee reported them to police because they are African American.
Plaintiffs state four counts against defendants: (I) denial of their right to make and enforce
contracts under 42 U.S.C. § 1981; (II) violation of their civil rights under 42 U.S.C. § 1983;
(III) unlawful discrimination under Pennsylvania common law; and (IV) punitive damages.
Defendants have moved to dismiss all counts. In their response, plaintiffs concede they cannot state
claims for Counts II through IV, and they request leave to file a second amended complaint stating
a claim only under § 1981. The court held oral arguments on May 13, 2013. For the reasons stated
below, the motion to dismiss all counts will be granted, and plaintiffs will be given leave to amend
their complaint to state a plausible claim under § 1981.
Plaintiffs have listed the Ritz Carlton Residence and Residence Condominium as separate defendants. It is
unclear whether these are the same entity or two distinct entities. In their second amended complaint, plaintiffs
should make clear which entity or entities they intend to sue.
Under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6), a district court may dismiss all or part of
an action for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. A complaint must contain
sufficient facts, accepted as true, to state a claim that is plausible on its face. Ashcroft v. Iqbal,
556 U.S. 662, 678 (2009); Bell Atlantic v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544 (2007). A complaint is facially
plausible if it pleads "factual content that allows the court to draw the reasonable inference that
the defendant is liable for the misconduct alleged." Iqbal, 556 U.S. at 663. "Threadbare recitals
of the elements of a cause of action, supported by mere conclusory statements," do not establish
a plausible allegation. Id.
A plaintiff may amend his or her complaint once as a matter of course. Fed. R. Civ. P.
15(a)(1). For additional amendments, the plaintiff must receive the opposing party's written
consent or the court's leave. Fed. R. Civ. P. 15(a)(2). The court grants leave to amend freely
"when justice so requires." Id. However, leave to amend may be denied if amendment would be
futile. Arab African Int'l Bank v. Epstein, 10 F.3d 168, 174 (3d Cir. 1993). Futility means that
the amended complaint would fail to state a claim upon which relief could be granted. In
reviewing for futility, the district court applies the same standard of legal sufficiency applying to
a Rule 12(b)(6) motion. In re Burlington Coat Factory Sec. Litig., 114 F.3d 1410, 1434 (3d Cir.
Plaintiffs concede they cannot state claims for Counts II through IV, so the court will
grant the motion to dismiss those counts. Plaintiffs believe they can state a claim under § 1981
(Count I), and they request leave to file a second amended complaint containing only that claim.
Defendants argue the § 1981 claim should be dismissed without leave to amend because
amendment would be futile.
Section 1981 prohibits racial discrimination in the making and enforcing of contracts:
"All persons within the jurisdiction of the United States shall have the same right . . . to make
and enforce contracts . . . as is enjoyed by white citizens." 42 U.S.C. § 1981(a). To state a claim
under § 1981, plaintiffs must allege that: (1) they are members of a racial minority; (2)
defendants intended to discriminate on the basis of race; and (3) the discrimination concerned the
making and enforcing of a contract. Pryor v. Nat'l Collegiate Athletic Ass'n, 288 F.3d 548, 569
(3d Cir. 2002). "[A] plaintiff cannot state a claim under Section 1981 unless he has (or would
have) rights under the existing (or proposed) contract that he wishes 'to make and enforce.'"2
Domino's Pizza, Inc. v. McDonald, 546 U.S. 470, 479 (2006).
Respondeat superior liability is available in actions against private employers under
§ 1981. See, e.g., Flanagan v. Aaron E. Henry Community Health Services Ctr., 876 F.2d
1231,1235 (5th Cir. 1989); Springer v. Seaman, 821 F.2d 871, 881 (1st Cir. 1987). Liability may
be imputed to an employer for the acts of its employees when the plaintiff demonstrates either
"that the employer was aware of the alleged misconduct and failed to take action or that the
employer or an authorized supervisor directly participated in the illicit act." Goodwin v. Fast
Food Enterprises No. 3, LLP, 2012 WL 1739830, at *3 (W.D. Pa. May 16, 2012).
Plaintiffs allege they viewed a model condominium unit at the Ritz. They assert that an
employee at the Ritz discriminated against them, by rushing them off the premises and
contacting the police, because they are African American. It is unclear whether plaintiffs ever
intended to purchase a condominium unit. Plaintiffs have sufficiently alleged that they are
The contractual relationship "need not already exist, because § 1981 protects the would-be contractor
along with those who already have made contracts." McDonald, 546 U.S. at 476.
members of a racial minority and that a Ritz employee intended to discriminate against them
based on their race. However, plaintiffs have failed to allege that the discrimination related to a
contract under which plaintiffs have, or would have, rights. Plaintiffs have not stated a claim
under § 1981. The court will grant the motion to dismiss Count I.
Plaintiffs may be able to state a plausible claim of contract interference under § 1981 if
they allege they intended to form a contract and were prohibited from doing so by defendants.
Plaintiffs must also allege facts demonstrating that defendants are liable under a respondeat
superior theory. Since plaintiffs may be able to state a claim under § 1981, amendment would
not be futile. The court will grant plaintiffs leave to file a second amended complaint.
Defendants' motion to dismiss all counts in plaintiff's first amended complaint will be
granted. Plaintiffs will be given leave to amend their complaint to state a plausible claim under
§ 1981. An appropriate order follows.

using 350 small block engine components in a 2004 chevy silverado 1500 4.8l v8?
I was wondering what all parts off a 350(internal engine parts, headers, etc.) would be compatible or fit my 2004 chevy silverado 1500 with the 4.8l v8 engine...the reason i am asking is my sister-in-law's dad is parting out an old truck with a like new 350 with all; (elderbrock, holley, and other top of the line parts) as far as internal engine and all the engine components and can get ahold of them cheap since he needs money fast!

make that a 5.3L v8 which is a 323 i believe because i am going to swap the 4.8l to a 5.3l engine!
07-19-2012, 04:59 PM #3I don't think any parts of the 350 are compatible with the 4.8, or the 5.3 (these engines are the same, the 5.3 is just a stroked 4.8).
'09 Avalanche LTZ - Black
'05 Envoy XL (sold)
07-20-2012, 11:01 AM #4Absolutly nothing in those engines are interchangeable. The new LS, and LS style engines are a completly different design from the older ones.

Stable Association of Mitotic Cyclin B/Cdc2 to Replication Origins Prevents Endoreduplication
Cell, Volume 111, Issue 3, 1 November 2002, Pages 419-431
Jérôme Wuarin, Vicky Buck, Paul Nurse and Jonathan B.A. Millar
SummaryWe show that in fission yeast the mitotic B type cyclin Cdc13/Cdc2 kinase associates with replication origins in vivo. This association is dependent on the origin recognition complex (ORC), is established as chromosomes are replicated, and is maintained during G2 and early mitosis. Cells expressing an orp2 (ORC2) allele that reduces binding of Cdc13 to replication origins are acutely prone to chromosomal reduplication. In synchronized endoreduplicating cells, following Cdc13 ablation, replication origins are coordinately licensed prior to each successive round of S phase with the same periodicity as in a normal cell cycle. Thus, ORC bound mitotic Cyclin B/Cdc2 kinase imposes the dependency of S phase on an intervening mitosis but not the temporal licensing of replication origins between each S phase.

Cdc13 Delivers Separate Complexes to the Telomere for End Protection and Replication
Cell, Volume 104, Issue 3, 9 February 2001, Pages 387-396
Erin Pennock, Kathleen Buckley and Victoria Lundblad
SummaryIn Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the telomere binding protein Cdc13 mediates telomere replication by recruiting telomerase, and also performs an essential function in chromosome end protection. We show here that delivery of the Stn1 protein to the telomere, by fusing the DNA binding domain of Cdc13 (DBDCDC13) to Stn1, is sufficient to rescue the lethality of a cdc13 null strain and, hence, provide end protection. Telomere replication is still defective in this strain, but can be restored by delivering telomerase to the telomere as a DBDCDC13-telomerase fusion. These results establish Stn1 as the primary effector of chromosome end protection, whereas the principal function of Cdc13 is to provide a loading platform to recruit complexes that provide end protection and telomere replication.

b Department of Biology University College London London WC1E 6BT England
- The products of the cdc13+ and cdc2+ genes form a stable complex that displays protein kinase activity in vitro. p63cdc13 is a substrate of p34cdc2, the catalytic subunit of the kinase. The histone H1 kinase activity of cdc2 oscillates during the cell cycle. Activation of the preformed cdc2cdc13 complex at the G2M transition requires cdc25+ gene function. Post-metaphase inactivation of the kinase is associated with loss of cdc13, which shares sequence homology with mitotic cyclins and, in common with these proteins, is degraded at each cell division. cdc13 and cdc2 colocalize in the cell nucleus. cdc2 is not degraded during mitosis, but in the absence of cdc13 it is not localized in the nucleus. These observations suggest that the cdc13+-encoced cyclin acts to regulate both the catalytic properties and the localization of the protein kinase of which it is a subunit.

Movie Info
Richard Brooks and John Huston's screenplay for Huston's Key Largo eschews the lofty blank verse of Maxwell Anderson's original play, concentrating instead on the simmering tensions among the many characters. Humphrey Bogart plays Frank McCloud, an embittered war veteran who travels to Key Largo in Florida, there to meet Nora Temple (Lauren Bacall), the wife of his deceased war buddy. Arriving at a tumbledown hotel managed by Nora's father-in-law James Temple (Lionel Barrymore), McCloud

A little windy and rhetorical for my taste, but still one of John Huston's best efforts.
Emphasis is on tension in the telling, and effective use of melodramatic mood has been used to point up the suspense.
Although the characters are basically stereotypes, they are lent the gift of life by a superlative cast.
The script prepared by Mr. Huston and Richard Brooks was too full of words and highly cross-purposed implications to give the action full chance.
First seen soaking in a tub while chomping on a cigar, Robinson arises from the water to put a stranglehold on the film.
Trapped in a country estate by an impending storm, a mobster attempts to lay low before escaping from the police, but takes a risky gambit holding Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall hostage.
Claire Trevor won a Supporting Oscar for playing the alcoholic mistress of Edward G. Robinson's gangster in John Huston's taut crimer starring Bogart.
Perfeclty tense atmosphere and performances, with the sparks flying between Bogart and Bacall.
Huston's wayward talent seldom lacked energy.
Edward G. Robinson deserves special praise.
Great cast headed by Bogart in Huston classic.
Like the similarly sweaty, claustrophobic 12 Angry Men, Key Largo is a rare adaptation of a stage play in which the physical constraints of the stagebound source material are a strength rather than a weakness.
Exciting crime thriller set in the Florida Keys during a late summer hurricane.
Taut Huston thriller with an unbeatable cast.
One of Bogart's half-dozen best, a tense and atmospheric classic.
Key Largo will always be remembered during hurricane season
It ultimately pales next to other Bogart and Bacall work, though it's still a reasonably good watch that has stood up well over the last 50 years.
This production is loaded with wit, and even though it's obvious from the start that Frank's going to be the hero, you can't help feeling the tension and pleading with him to do the right thing.
