Judge Dismiss Ala. Challenge To Voting Rights Act
A federal judge in Washington, D.C. has upheld a key part of the 1965 Voting Rights Act. Shelby County, Alabama, had sued to get out from under requirements that it send all of its election changes to the federal government for pre- approval to protect the interest of minority voters. A judge threw out the lawsuit saying that Congress had acted within its power under the Constitution.

detroit locker question in a toy
my buddy has a sweet Toyota landcruiser. shackle flip, spring over, awesome 302, 37" boggers, a great do it all vehicle.
now in his front end it started making nasty noises during a run. and had 1 wheel drive short side (passenger). we figured broken hub/axle. axle & hub seem fine. pulled out the diff lancruiser diffs pull out like a ford 9". no visible damage on the Detroit locker. he doesn't want to unnecessarily pull out the locker and have to reset the bearings. is there a way to tell if its fucked or not? I mean without dismantling it?

Yep it was the outer dog clutch shattered into 6-8 pieces. A lot of the teeth were pulled off too, is that normal breakage?

AT& T Sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
By Debbie Hettinger, posted: May 13I have never spent so much time trying to get DSL and a new Lan Line. AT&T still has not figured out DSL and my Lan Line and this has been going on since April 27, 2013. But they still want $138.00 from me. AT& T sucks and there is more than one fish in the sea. How can a company but somebody on hold for 6 hours, 3 hours 2.5 hours. Everytime I call and am being put on hold. I am either at the wrong department or they hang up on me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AT&T does not give a shit about their cutomers they only care about the money that is rolling in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - 1.0 overall
Terrible service
By Stephanie Cruz, posted: May 13We have been AT&T customers for at least 5 years and due to military obligations had to move all over the US and service was always ok. Now we live in a rural area and can't get any service, to boost the service we recieved a Micro Cell which is totally unreliable. We lose service all the time and our phones are constantly roaming for coverage and on top of that we get voicemails instead of calls. Now we have been on the phone with AT&T for the whole day and still they want the disconnection fee eventhough AT&T are the ones who CAN NOT provide the service that we are OVERpaying for. It is not our fault that they don't have a tower here, so how are we the ones who are always screwed in the end?! My husband is a Army Vet of 22 years, uninterrupted service and they can't help out a 100% disabled vet??? We will never recommened this service. - 1.0 overall
AT&T, just like the other 3
By Jerryz, posted: Apr 13I have used Verizon, AT&T, Sprint and T-Mobile over the past 12 years. Look at all the complaints for the 4 companies on this website. All 4 lack great customer service, They all have service problems at one point or another, they are all after more and more money and if we switch, well, they get more money. If people are getting great service, they love their company. All 4 companies have those people. If people are not getting great service, they hate their company. All 4 companies have those people as well. What we have failed to learn is that we created these monsters because we want more and more, faster and faster, now, now, now. These companies don't care because as soon as you drop service and switch, someone is switching back to one of the other 3. It is a cycle and they are all in it together. Think about it. If you owned one of these companies, wouldn't you fix the billing issues, the customer care issues, the phone issues, give discounts to your loyal customers etc.etc. These companies just don't care because if they don't get the money from me or you they will get it from someone else. It is estimated there are almost 300 million devices with contracts with these 4 companies at an average of $80 per line. That is over $24 BILLION per month collectively. THAT'S WHY THEY DON'T CARE, PERIOD. If each customer kept their current provider but found a way to reduce services by about $20 per month per device, it would take from their pockets approximately 6 BILLION $$ per month collectively. Think that would open their eyes and make them change. We should try it. - 1.0 overall
By Kevin Scheve, posted: Apr 13First the Indian guy on the phone has the wrong address and keeps telling me i already have an account with U-verse before i even signed up. I kept telling him he had the wrong address but he didn't get it, because when I called back the next day and spoke to an American they still had the wrong address. Finally i was able to clear it up and get started. The first installation guy was supposed to come inside to make sure everything was ready for service I was told to be home for specific hours and had to take off work. I thought the guy never showed so i called and apparently he was just checking the outside of the building and left. When i wasn't able to get a signal with a self install i called them back they sent me a dumb tech who couldn't figure out how to install it either. He said somebody would be coming the next day who could fix it. I asked when and he didn't know just said to wait for a call. Later the next day my neighbor tells me a guy from at&t was on the first floor of the apartment, (I have no buzzers working and specified i must be called to be let in) and i live on the third floor. My neighbor said he waited less than 2 minutes and left without calling me. I swiftly canceled the service and got almost all my money back. During the week i ordered i was suggested to sign up for a hotline u can call to help u self install but if i didn't cancel after a week i would be charged $10. This company is hired by at&t to help customers but even though i never had service i was charged and couldn't get my money back. I had to spend an hour on the phone just to get the company name number and cancel. My last nightmare happened when i returned the modem ups lost it and i was charged $150 it was taken straight out of my account since i was forced to sign a contract with auto something to do with my low credit rating. I called asked what happened they said its lost and they would call me back. They never did two weeks later i found the receipt with the tracking number so i called them back. They got the modem, and said they were sending a request for a full rebate. I get a call today and they sent me a check for $100. I was charged $150. So i had to send another request for my $50 check they are calling me friday to make sure it goes through. Worst experience of my life called xfinity they were there in two days installed in 1 and a half hours and havent had any problems - 1.0 overall

less than 1 review
By Nado Nairos, posted: Apr 13one of the worst incompetent customer service , finish your contract and find another one, my advise. I have a 2 3gs and I upgrade it to iphone 4 and sony android ion. but the phones was lost in the mail so I reported it to att and a replacment was immediately sent. but the next day I got bck the lost phones because it was delivered in a wrong address. I contact customer shit care and told me to activate the returned phones and return the replacement which I did. it works for a couple of weeks and the problem arises, the phones are blocked because it was reported stolen. I tried to explain the situation to three customer care, who cannot understand the simple situation. I waited 3 days as advised but nothing happen, my laso hope go to my relative who works for ATT and refer me to a very intelligent manager who later on talk to the customer care and same as me, got really annoyed for the incompetence, lack of knowledge of these people. I received a confirmation email that att have received the returned phones, but their warehouse said, it is missing that is why they cannot unblock the phone. realizing what happened because it is not may fault I just follow all these incompetent customer care have told me, the manager refund me my activation fee, reactivate my old 3gs phones while waiting for these incompetent, warehouse, IT, customer care to fix their mess until my new phones will be unblock, I am still waiting. I got my activation fee of 70 dollars back and a free sony experia ion and iphone 4 for 1 dollar in replacement for the problems and att incompetence I suffered. I suspect that somebody in their org is stealing all returned phones that where reported missing, because it is now unusable at att because, it is blocked. But because I returned is the one that is not blocked , since customer care advise me to activate the lost phones, The thieves, did not expect that, so all documentation is messed up, this is how incompetent these people are. Just read my experience and see what do you think of these people, low quality, service, and customer care. - 4.7 overall
Good Service, Surprising Gaps in Coverage
By Russell Lilly, posted: Mar 13We have been with AT&T for 8 + years, after leaving an Verizon. We go to a local AT&T store when we have questions or to buy new phones [Stow-Kent Plaza, Stow, OH] and have always found the employees friendly and helpful in numerous ways, including suggestions to reduce costs. We have three smart phones with data plans. I do find some surprising gaps in their coverage, frustratingly enough at my office in rural Geauga county. However, that is the exception mostly to a very positive experience. I can understand a lot of the complaints, but my suggestion is, go to one of their service centers and deal with real people first hand. And no, I don't own their stock or work for them. - 1.0 overall
At&t sucks, do not choose them as a service provier, you will regret it.
By Renae Arias, posted: Mar 13I hate at&t and I will never ever get another contract again as long as I live. They are rediculously expensive and cut throat charging jacked high up bills with ordinary service (just like all the other providers). There is no special anything about at&t, they are just greedy. - 1.0 overall
rude CS. unfair billing practices.
By azon3, posted: Mar 13below is my CS experience with ATT on-line accnt help. they were unhelpful and rude. generally, i don't understand why i can't use the phone i purchased myself for what it was made - telephoning. instead i'm forced to pay for data services that i don't want. there has to be grounds for court action in there somewhere. anyhow, wouldn't recomend them and am switching asap myself. igor: and the fact that the phone doesn't work on your data network frequencies doesn't matter? Sean Greene : You would be the first customer I have heard to have issues igor: that doesn't really answer my question igor: if frequencies of my phone don't match your 4G network frequencies properly, then it won't work igor: my phone is not an att brand phone Sean Greene : I understand you believe that igor: ? Sean Greene : There is nothing I can do about removing the data plan from your line it is required for all smartphones Sean Greene : That is policy set by ATT igor: is it also ATT policy to imply that your customer is stupid and thereby be rude to them? Do you have a manager I can speak to? Sean Greene : I have not implied you are stupid at all igor: ok. can you please answer my question Sean Greene : You are looking for an exception to get you out of your contract and I am explaining there is no such loophole igor: this was my question: igor: is it also ATT policy to imply that your customer is stupid and thereby be rude to them? Do you have a manager I can speak to? Sean Greene : All smartphones on the att network require a data plan to be present Sean Greene : I have not been rude to you at all igor: i'd like to speak to your manager Sean Greene : One moment Igor One moment while I transfer the chat to 'Margaret Moss'. Welcome! You are now chatting with 'Margaret Moss' - 2.3 overall
BEWARE if you decide to leave AT&T...
By Nwunye81, posted: Feb 13If you decide to leave AT&T and carry your AT&T phone to another carrier, AT&T will NOT unclock your phone until you pay your final bill. The problem is, this final bill will not come out until your NEXT billing cycle. So your AT&T phone will be UNUSABLE for a month or more until your final statement is released and you are able to pay your final bill. What's worse: after paying your final bill, AT&T takes up to 7 business days to unlock your phone! Ridiculous, inconvenient nonsense!

Didn't think this tool was necessary....but it makes replacing seals very easy. Even on small seals u may need to put a wrag between the tool and the part u are working on, but it puts way less stress on it than a screw driver

1. Nice, convenient markings for premix fuel ratios 2. sturdy construction (seemingly) 3. BUT IT LEAKS even when the cap is very tight. Now I'll need to pack wax film, or use some other kind of sealing method in order to use this on dual sport rides. This seal problem basically negates the reason for buying this product. If not for this, it would have gotten 5 stars based on the first two criteria.

Lightweight aerodynamic design reduces drag when you carry it from the bench to the bike. Ergonomically designed handle increases grip and reduces hand fatigue to allow for more 12 ounce gripping and lifting after a day at the track. Highly recommended! Buy one for each hand, one for pre-mix, one for suds.

In that electrifyingly hilarious moment when the monster is shocked to life in the current Broadway production of Young Frankenstein, no effect is spared in Peter Kaczorowski's lighting design. The stage visuals are achieved by a creative combination of projection, conventional and moving lights, with the elaborate automated rig controlled by an ETC Eos® system. Young Frankenstein's extensive light plot is based around a mix of 120 Mac 2Ks – including Performances, Profiles and some washes. "Eos is great for handling a large rig like this," says Josh Weitzman, moving light programmer for Young Frankenstein. "It has unique new tools that help you manage that size of rig and work really quickly." Young Frankenstein's opening scene features dramatic flashes of lightning, which involve the use of both projection and lighting. "With projection," explains Weitzman, "you can't change the color temperature of the lightning bolt; you're limited to the tone the image is. So we layered the moving lights on top of the video projection. That gave us a great deal more control – in intensity of color, in terms of strobing. I could make the light linger beyond the image without having to re-render the whole video. Similarly, in the play's hayride scene, we were able to enhance the image and effect of the moon – deepening its tones, changing its textures, all by controlling the light that is layered over the video projection. And that kind of manipulation of light requires a versatile console like Eos." Of Eos' new tools, Weitzman finds the Query function especially time-saving and helpful: "Let's say you have a palette that's called "Monster Down Left." You can hit Query and then select that palette button, and it will grab all of the lights that are pointed at "Monster Down Left," and you can then change the colors in them all at once – or change some other parameter. There might be different combinations and conditions used to build the query. You can then select any or all of the lights that meet the condition you describe." Weitzman finds Eos's Trace button another indispensable tool for working on a production like Young Frankenstein: "I use this feature so much I can't believe I programmed for years without it. It saves so much time. If you're halfway through a scene and you decide with the designer that the lights should really be green here not blue, you can take that light to 'green Trace' and that change will go back to where the color was originally set. You don't even need to know what cue number you had stored that color in." As Weitzman attests, it's the nature of any production that many changes are made, both in the compressed preparation for the show and during its previews, until the ideal design solutions are found. "The better the board is able to accommodate you, the freer you are to try different things," says Weitzman. "If it's effortless, you find yourself trying many creative permutations. Being able to do them quickly in real time with the designer and the director looking on gives you the chance to try out more things than you otherwise would if you didn't have the confidence to do things quickly. In the end you have a better production." This is a musical, of course, so the pacing of the lighting must also complement dance numbers. Says Weitzman, "Eos was a big part of making that work easily. You're able to group fixtures together into parts of a cue. And then when they make an inevitable change in the choreography, and you have to change time or something like that, you can do that quickly and easily without affecting what the rest of the rig is doing. That's pretty cool." The amount of interaction between the lighting, sound and music departments on Young Frankenstein was extensive -- to coordinate things like lightning bolts, thunder effects and crescendos in the music. "Eos is often controlling the sound board, firing the sound effects, and the sound board is sometimes controlling the light board, and then they're switching back and forth. Again, Eos was a piece of cake using ETC's new Net3 Show Control Gateway to talk flexibly between all these different things." Opened on Broadway, at the Hilton on November 8th, 2007, Young Frankenstein is a happy spectacle seeking monstrously memorable effects. The production continues to sell out seats and reap praise for its dazzling stagecraft and complex lighting design.

Shanghai Grand Theatre, ChinaChina's Shanghai Grand Theatre (commonly referred to as SGT), has become one of the world's most state-of-the-art and environmentally-friendly theaters following a recent renovation. The project included a complete overhaul of its lighting, adding a full ETC lighting system.View this installation >
National Theatre, London, UKIn 2009, with its lighting rigs growing increasingly complex and more diverse, the National Theatre in London decided to put several just-launched ETC Eos desks in the driver's seat on its three stages. The staff quickly became dedicated to the Eos family of controls, adding Gio® and Ion® over the years. Therefore, when ETC debuted the Eos Titanium (Ti) desk – with even more powerful hardware and software than its predecessor – there was no question that the National would upgrade.View this installation >
Yau Ma Tei Theatre, Hong KongThe newly reopened Yau Ma Tei Theatre has put a modern twist on traditional Cantonese opera. The historic 300-seat venue in Kowloon, Hong Kong, which is operated by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department, features the latest ETC technology, with layers of the highest-quality conventional and LED light.View this installation >
Zorro: A New Musical, Atlanta, GeorgiaZorro: A New Musical has claimed a lot of firsts for ETC's Eos® family of lighting control products. It was the first West End musical controlled by an Eos desk. It was the first large-scale show in Paris run on an Eos. And now it's adding another accomplishment to the list: Zorro is the first theatrical production in America to feature ETC's newest lighting control desk, Eos Titanium ("Ti").View this installation >
Bring It On, New York City, New York"Eos is not just viable, but good. It doesn't just handle a show, it goes above and beyond. It can take anything we throw at it. This time, we threw a huge show at Eos and it performed flawlessly." – Jason Lyons, lighting designer for Bring It OnView this installation >
Theater of Nations, Moscow, RussiaFew theaters around the world have such a long, rich and tumultuous history as the State Theater of Nations in Moscow, Russia. It stands as a testament to the importance of the arts, having survived many challenges. A recent large-scale renovation means the theater's tough times are a thing of the past, and an equipment upgrade – including a new lighting system starring an ETC Eos® lighting control console and Source Four® fixtures – prepares the Theater of Nations for its promising future.View this installation >
Chance Theater, Anaheim, CaliforniaThousands of venues around the globe have staged West Side Story, but none have approached the musical like the 49-seat Chance Theater in Anaheim, California. The theater is doing West Side Story with a modern lighting twist: an all-LED rig, featuring ETC's latest lighting innovations. The goal of the show is to demonstrate how to use ETC LED fixtures to achieve the look of a conventionally-lit show – with full-spectrum color and naturally-rendered flesh tones – while achieving huge energy savings in a small theater.View this installation >

Moscow Art Theater Named for Chekhov, RussiaThe Moscow Art Theater named for A.P. Chekhov has been a staple of Russian theater in some form since its first performance in 1898. With a repertoire of both foreign classics and Russian favorites, the Moscow Art Theater also stays true to its namesake, staging the highest caliber productions of Chekhov's works. To ensure the lighting for the shows shines as brightly as the stars on stage, the Moscow Art Theater employs an ETC lighting system.View this installation >
Gothenburg City Theatre, SwedenWhen Gothenburg City Theatre in Sweden received funding from the regional government to spend on energy-saving measures, the first thing the technicians thought of replacing was their energy-hungry cyclorama lighting. With the help of Peter Wikström, project manager at One Two Sales in Gothenburg, the technicians quickly realized that not only would ETC's Selador Vivid™-R LED fixtures provide the quality and power of light they needed while saving a huge amount of energy, the theater would also gain some 15 feet of stage depth. Previously, a large gap had to be kept between the luminaires and the cyc wall itself. The Selador fixture, which can be mounted on the last flying bar, allows a greater area of stage to be used.View this installation >
Sharon Lynne Wilson Center for the Arts, WIThe Sharon Lynne Wilson Center for the Arts in Brookfield, Wisconsin – a venue that supports arts programs in area schools, as well as local artists – has employed ETC lighting solutions in its theater spaces for the last decade. The complex caters to a broad range of events, from high school musicals and student orchestra recitals, to dance productions and cabaret acts. To provide the best possible lighting for each performance or special event, the technical staff uses a range of ETC lighting control consoles, including Element™, SmartFade® ML, and Congo jr™. The Wilson Center also became the first venue to use ETC's newest lighting control console, Congo Kid.View this installation >
Guangzhou Opera House, ChinaOne of the three largest performance venues in China (along with Shanghai's Grand Theater and Beijing's National Centre For The Performing Arts), the new Guangzhou Opera House made its world premiere this May, with ETC entertainment and architectural lighting systems in control.

5th Avenue Theatre, Seattle, WashingtonSeattle's 5th Avenue Theatre is renowned for its high-caliber live performances, music revivals and Broadway shows. In 2008, 5th Avenue upgraded the lighting system in its 2,115-seat proscenium theater in order to keep pace with the changing world of theatrical lighting – productions adding more moving lights and special effects, and a faster turnaround time between shows. Says Head Electrician Sean Callahan: "We were looking for one console that could control everything that we normally use and could deal with the future expansion of our system." They chose ETC's flagship Eos control system.View this installation >

Opéra Garnier, Paris, FranceLike many theater-technology professionals, Pascal Boulanger, the lighting chief at Paris's Opéra Garnier, has an increasing number of jobs to do and fewer people to help. Boulanger decided that pre-programmable moving lights would be a labor-saving solution. But he was also concerned about introducing fixture noise into an acoustically-purist opera environment.View this installation >
American Idiot, Berkeley Rep, CAAmerican Idiot, the GRAMMY®-winning album by rock icons Green Day, is now thrilling audiences as a poignant and high-octane rock-opera at the Berkeley Repertory Theatre.

Munich Kammerspiele, GermanyA lighting position over the audience had remained vacant since the Munich Kammerspiele's reopening in 2003, because none of the automated luminaires on the market complied with the restored theater's noise restrictions.

The fan and motor noise were so minimized that we could now place a moving light in the audience area of our theater."View this installation >

Cuckoo Forest Clock
Filed under: Decor
Cuckoo clocks are not exactly at the top of anyone's must-have list for interior decorating, but they still have a certain presence - or at least a cute factor - that makes them appealing. The Cockoo Forest Clock, pictured here in Rust, is a far cry from anything that your grandmother would have hung in her living room. It is designed so that it looks like something from a Rorschach test, almost symmetrical and with a seemingly endless number of patterns to be found around the edges. It's intriguing to look at and comes in colors ranging from black and white to neon pink and the metallic silver. The non-metallic colors are slightly less expensive, but Rust and the other metallics are $453.

Informed Decision Tools Largely Reduce Ortho Joint Surgeries
The report's authors qualified their findings. For starters, Group Health surgeons are all on salary, so volume of procedures does not influence their paychecks.
Second, it could not be determined whether the patients actually used the DVD or the online tool, or to what extent it may have influenced their decision.
Third, the followup period was six months, after which the patient may have gone ahead and had the surgery. "We cannot exclude the possibility that the decision aid implementation has only delayed the timing of joint replacement surgery," the authors wrote. "It is entirely possible, given the natural history of osteoarthritis, that patients who choose to forego joint replacement will reverse their decision later."
Fourth, Group Health providers have been during this study period moving to medical home payment models, and other initiatives are underway to make doctors and other clinicians aware of care costs and the importance of avoiding unnecessary procedures.
"Although osteoarthritis management was not a specific focus of the medical home initiative, it is possible that better primary care management of osteoarthritis may have contributed to observed declines in joint replacement," the researchers wrote.
Comments are moderated. Please be patient.

Real Quick Notes
Hey everyone! Good morning! I am going to be real quick today as I have to be on the road in the morning by 5:45 a.m. Seriously! That's absolutely crazy. I am going to spend the next two days in Fargo for work. I will try to post a couple of quick blogs over the next couple of days if information needs to be told or I happen to have some extra time, so please be sure to check back.
Went to the movie Hancock last night at the Eden Prairie Mall. Did you know that tickets are half price during the week?! What a great idea! And seriously, buttered popcorn at the theatre is just so good. Speaking of good... the movie was excellent. That is completely not the type of movie that I would go to or enjoy, but I really did. I has about the right combination of humor, action, drama and emotion to be just a really fun movie to watch. I would recommend it. Seems that for every movie you hear good things and bad things. I had heard both for this one, but it's really to each his own. That's why I don't pay much attention to what others think. Will Smith is excellent. Jason Bateman was actually really good. And well, Charlize Theron is Charlize Theron! Check it out if you get a chance!
I got into the car to head home just as the Twins game finished. The Twins lost 1-0. Sounds like Scott Baker was excellent again. I continue to be impressed by him. I know when he first came up, he was compared to Brad Radke. I recall saying that he had the poise. He actually threw a couple mph more than Radke, and his curveball is significantly better than Radke's. Baker's changeup is still not quite to Radke-level, but it's a very good big league pitch. I've said 150 wins for Kevin Slowey, and I happen to think that Baker is right there with him!
I am one who considered the Boston Red Sox the class of the big leagues, and Daisuke Matsuzaka is excellent, if he only threw more strikes. They run things well. They actually think a lot like the Twins in terms of building from within and player development. Their 2005 draft was absolutely remarkable with Jacoby Ellsbury, Dustin Pedroia, Clay Buchholz and Michael Bowden all a part of it. So, a 1-0 loss is not a horrible thing. It really tells us that the Twins are quite good.
For some really good points on the Twins game, please check out Andrew's thoughts at TwinsFix.
I think I am glad I didn't watch though for one reason. Jason Kubel was 1-2 with a walk in the game. Then he was scheduled to bat with the bases loaded and one out in the 8th inning. Joe Mauer had singled and Justin Morneau had walked in front of him. Gardy decided, for some unknown reason that is incomprehensible to me, to pinch hit Craig Monroe for him. Monroe came up and popped out, essentially ending the Twins scoring opportunity. Would Kubel have come through? We don't know. There is no way of knowing that. I think that he has earned the right to get that chance. I don't care if a lefty is on the mound, and I don't care if Monroe was brought in to hit lefties. He would not pinch hit for Justin Morneau or Joe Mauer against a lefty, would he? And no, I'm not quite putting Kubel into their category, but again, he's proven enough to get that opportunity. Thank you to "Pete" for mentioning this situation to me. He added, "You don't pinch hit for your third best hitter." Very true! Thanks for the note, Pete and thanks for making me irate now. I am glad I didn't see that! Let's talk about the minor leaguers!!
Rochester lost 7-3 to Charlotte. Garrett Jones had three hits including his 9th home run. Jason Pridie had two hits including his 10th triple. Ryan Jorgensen had two hits including a double. Danny Graves gave up three runs on seven hits and no walks in six innings. I am one who believes he should move back to the bullpen as that is his hope to get back to the big leagues. However, I just don't see anyone in AA or AAA right now who would be better.
New Britain lost 5-3 to Connecticut. Brian Dinkelman, Brock Peterson and Erik Lis each had two hits. Zach Ward made another start and gave up two runs on seven hits and four walks in five innings.
Ft. Myers lost 5-2 to Vero Beach. Tyler Robertson took the loss as he gave up five runs (just one earned) on five hits and three walks in four innings. Jose Lugo threw three shutout innings. Then, according to the box score at least, Danny Santiesteban came in and pitched a 1-2-3 inning, including two strikeouts. Intriguing! Yangervis Solarte had two hits. Steve Singleton had a two, a double and two RBI.
Beloit's game against Wisconsin was rained out. Elizabethton did not have a game scheduled.
The GCL Twins gave the organization its lone win of the day, a 12-1 win over the GCL Red Sox. Alex Curry threw six shutout innings. He gave up just one hit and one walk. Herbert Lara, Anderson Hidalgo, Josmil Pinto and Juan Sanchez each had three hits. Sanchez had two doubles, Lara and Pinto each had one. Michael Gonzalez hit a home run and drove in three runs.
Over the weekend, Travis posted his Quarterly Top 50 Prospect list.
I was looking at MLBTradeRumors.com tonight and saw that the Dodgers are Targeting Jack Wilson. They are apparently OK with the fact that he is owed more than $7 million next year and has an option for more than $8 million in 2010. Jack Wilson has been hurt most of this year and isn't very good anyway. His defense, while once very good, is now average at best. The article goes on to say that the Dodgers may be willing to part with OF Matt Kemp... for Jack Wilson?! I think that the Twins should offer up Nick Punto to the Dodgers and see if they could get Andy LaRoche or why not ask for Clayton Kershaw. I realize there are plenty of questions around Kemp, but we are still talking about Jack Wilson!
Hope you all have a good day!!

"Golden State Fruit is a nice alternative to Harry and David. They frequently have free shipping (especially if you order from their Amazon affiliate store) and they seem to be a little bit more "no-frills" than other fruit stores are. They always deliver when they say they will and we have loved their Golden State DeLite Fruit Club--it's the perfect size for one or two people and it's the only club where my mom liked all of the monthly selections (except the mango, which my husband ate anyway)."

This recipe is an example of a favorite Italian trick--getting two dishes out of one. The chicken is served as an entree, and its sauce is tossed with pasta. While it is traditional to serve the pasta as the first course of the same meal, either chicken or sauce could be saved for another night.

Step 1
Char bell peppers over a low gas flame or under a broiler, turning often, until skins are evenly blistered, 5 to 10 minutes. Place the peppers in a bowl, cover and let stand for 10 to 15 minutes. Remove skins and seeds of the peppers with a paring knife. Cut the peppers into wide strips, saving any juices accumulated in the bowl. Set aside.
Step 2
Pat chicken dry and season with salt and pepper.
Step 3
Heat oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add garlic and crushed red pepper and cook, stirring, until golden, about 1 minute. Add the chicken and cook until browned on all sides, about 6 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate.
Step 4
Add wine to the pan and increase heat to high, scraping up any browned bits. Stir in tomatoes and one-third of the roasted peppers and their juices.
Step 5
Add the chicken. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer, turning once, until chicken is no longer pink in the center, 25 to 30 minutes. Add remaining bell peppers and cook until heated through, 3 to 5 minutes more. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
Step 6
Tilt pan and spoon off any surface fat from sauce. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Transfer chicken and vegetables with a slotted spoon to a warm serving bowl. Reserve 3 cups of sauce for another use. Spoon the remaining sauce over the chicken and vegetables. Serve hot.

The 2000 Census data indicate that commute times for U.S. workers have changed since 1990. More than half of workers had 15- to 29-minute commutes in 1990, but that dropped to 35% by 2000. The share of workers commuting less than 15 minutes increased the most in the 10-year period (14 percentage points), but the share of workers commuting 30 minutes or more also saw small increases.

The Chicago White Sox (1-1) and rookie manager Robin Ventura eked out their first of the season on Saturday, beating the Texas Rangers (1-1) in a 4-3 nail-biter.
SP Jake Peavy performed admirably in his first game of the season. After giving up three runs early the game, Peavey settled and managed to finish 6.0 innings with 5 strikeouts and only 1 walk. The duo of DH Adam Dunn (1 for 2 with 2 walks) and 1B Paul Konerko (2 for 4 with a double) both continued their hot start to the season, but the hero of the night turned out to be RF Alex Rios.
Rios appeared to be on track for an 0 for 3 night, but with CL Joe Nathan (L, 0-1) pitching in the top of the 9th inning, Rios clobbered a 93 mph fastball for a home run to center field. The blast pushed the White Sox to a 4-3 lead and gave RP Hector Santiago (S, 1) a chance for his first save of the season.

What do we do now? Important climate change issues vocalized by resource managers
For many people climate change is imperceptible, slow, and masked by swings in the weather. Cold fronts sweeping down from the north, sweltering summer heat waves, torrential rains from Pacific tropical storms, and late winter dry spells make it difficult to see consistent changes. But to the trained eye and to agencies tasked with managing the landscape, climate change is an immediate and clear challenge best met head-on with strategic planning.
Dale Hall, former director of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), made that challenge clear when he wrote in a 2007 message, "The warming of the earth could potentially have more far-reaching impacts on wildlife and wildlife habitat than any challenge that has come before us."
That is why the Southwest and California and Nevada Regions of the FWS, along with the US Geological Survey (USGS) launched an effort in 2008 to reduce the effects of a changing climate on the diverse ecosystems of California, Nevada, Arizona, and New Mexico.
This effort included a three-day workshop with top scientists from universities and more than 200 FWS and USGS employees and interest groups who met in Tucson, Ariz., in August 2008 to translate science on the environmental effects of climate change into real action.
Based on that workshop, the Climate Assessment for the Southwest (CLIMAS) project at The University of Arizona and FWS has released a new report that identifies the major challenges climatic changes will present to the conservation and protection of fish, wildlife, and habitats in the Southwest.
"Climate change is likely to be the toughest environmental challenge we will address this century, and desert ecosystems will be especially hard hit," said Benjamin Tuggle, FWS's Southwest Regional Director.
"We will only be able to meet our conservation goals by collaborating on a landscape level with academic institutions, other natural resource managers, land users and the public at large," Tuggle said. "Our partnership with CLIMAS allows us to analyze and prioritize some of the best strategic thinking on ways to address a warming climate in our critical Southwest desert landscapes."
Putting Knowledge into Action
FWS has one sweeping charge: conserve, protect, and enhance fish, wildlife, and plants and their habitats for the continued benefit of the American people. Its flagship conservation tool—the National Wildlife Refuge System (NWRS)—protects approximately 150 million acres that provide sanctuary to more than 700 species of birds, 220 species of mammals, and 200 species of fish. About 25 percent of all threatened and endangered species in the U.S. are found within refuges, which encompass a combined area about the size of New Mexico and Arizona.
While the NWRS has definite borders, plant and animal habitat does not. Therein lies one of the largest challenges: How does the FWS fulfill its mission if climate change forces plants and animals to seek new territory—habitat that may lie outside the protective boundaries of the NWRS?
This issue and many others were discussed by resource managers during the 2008 workshop and is the focus of the report, "Putting Knowledge into Action: Tapping the Institutional Knowledge of U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Regions 2 and 8 to Address Climate Change," released by CLIMAS and FWS Sept. 15.
The workshop included small group discussions, led by CLIMAS, in which resource managers discussed the obstacles and opportunities climate change presents. Their comments covered a range of topics, from the need to retool management strategies to improvements to public outreach.
Some meeting participants suggested conservation strategies should target an entire ecosystem instead of "charismatic" species such as the Gila monster that have widespread popular appeal; protecting one animal will not be effective if its food source becomes scarce. Other participants noted that climate change liaisons to the public will help increase awareness and engage interested citizens in management activities, such as empowering people to collect data on the timing of plant flowering.
Across the Southwest, the effects of climate change already are being observed, and little doubt exists within the scientific community that change will continue. The average annual temperature has risen 2.5 degrees F in Arizona and 1.8 degrees F in New Mexico since 1976, according to the report. Winter snow is melting earlier in the year compared with time periods before 1950. Rain is replacing some snow storms, and April snowpack—critical to the region's water supply—contains less water. In addition, yearly streamflows in the Colorado River basin have decreased slightly since 1950, and computer models generally project declines in the average annual runoff in the Southwest as the amount of snow decreases and evaporation increases (see side bar).
In turn, these changes influence the size and frequency of wildfires and many ecosystem processes, such as the timing of plant and animal life-cycle events and the distribution and extinction of species, according to the report. Climate change likely will alter habitat ranges for animals, pushing them outside current preservation areas.
Insights from the Report
During the small group sessions, meeting participants prioritized the actions that will guide the FWS on climate change adaptation. The most important steps included more educational programs for the public; more regional-scale, holistic conservation planning; more scientific research to study climate and ecosystem connections', and improved communication and collaboration.
Several other key findings of the report included:
- Participants of the group discussions were most concerned about the impacts of climate change on water issues and on species and habitat.
- Participants stated effective climate change planning will require fortifying existing partnerships and developing new ones.
- Participants stated that although many people are wary of using climate and other models, they find it unavoidable and therefore urge cautious and well informed use.
- Integrated assessments of species and habitat risks, including climate change and other threats, will improve resource management.
Group discussions also highlighted ways to improve the efficacy of resource management in the face of climate change. These included improving the ability to translate science to the public and decision makers; building new collaborations with existing partners; working with other organizations to, among other things, synthesize impact assessments, fact sheets, and other information; and enhancing the commitment to monitoring species and habitats.
Moving Forward
As the Southwest and other U.S. states grapple with climate change, one thing is certain: decision makers need useful and up-to-date climate data and information. The goal of the report was to synthesize the ideas of resource managers, providing a context for future planning and providing a window into the key issues resource managers face.
"The Fish and Wildlife Service recognizes that climate change poses a serious challenge to their conservation practices. This report highlights challenges and opportunities FWS employees identified as critical in the context of a changing climate, including the need to form new partnerships, to build climate concerns into management priorities, to develop a better understanding of potential climate driven impacts, and to find new ways of interacting with the public," said Dan Ferguson, CLIMAS program manager and co-author of the report. "This workshop represents an important step forward.
It also became a stepping stone for a second workshop on the challenges climate change presents to management that convened in Austin, Texas, several weeks ago. Resource managers and academics discussed issues related to Texas and Oklahoma, setting the stage for strategic planning for that region.
In announcing that workshop, Tuggle said, "This workshop, along with the Tucson meeting a year ago, sets the stage for the upcoming climate-related challenges in the Southwest Region that we are already beginning to face, but are only just beginning to identify."

The latest news and views about music in Milwaukee and beyond
Miss Alabama Shakes? Check out some clips here.
It's not everyday that Milwaukee plays host to a hot rising band's most significant gig to date, but that's what went down Saturday when the Adele-endorsed soul/blues/rock band Alabama Shakes performed at a sold out Pabst. Shakes, with its tight, seemingly effortless hooks and one hell of a voice from frontwoman Brittany Howard (see our review), first got significant national attention last fall, but its debut album "Boys & Girls" isn't out until April 10, and the band's headlining gigs so far have been at bars and small clubs. The Pabst show was by far its largest live audience as a headliner to date.
It's a pretty safe bet that Shakes will go down as one of the biggest breakout bands to play this year's South by Southwest, if not South by Southwest history. But take comfort in knowing that the band really broke it big here first.
Below are three clips from the show, of single "Hold On" courtesy of the Pabst, and performances of "Rise to the Sun" and "On Your Way," both appearing on the upcoming album, recorded by fan Elvis Sheehan.
