5 to 7 p.m.
WHAT: Dr. Berkeley "Buzz" Cue - who has nearly 30 years experience in the pharmaceutical industry - this week will speak about the business reasons for incorporating green chemistry into a company's operations. Green chemistry is the design of chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate the use and generation of hazardous substances.
WHERE: Alumni Library, University Avenue, UML North
WHY: In the second evening seminar series on green chemistry sponsored by UMass Lowell's Toxics Use Reduction Institute, Cue will argue that real cost savings can result from a green chemistry approach. Businesses see improvements in public relations, attracting and retaining talented employees and improving worker and environmental health and safety. Cue will share examples and data based on his decades of experience in the pharmaceutical industry - most recently at Pfizer's Groton site - as a champion of green chemistry. Since retiring in 2004, Cue has been invited to give more than a dozen presentations on green chemistry to audiences across the globe.

The New York Post is throwing its support behind Christine Quinn and Joe Lhota in the mayor's race.
The paper is endorsing Quinn and Lhota in today's edition under the headline "Time to Get Real."
It warns that the city is in danger of turning into Detroit unless voters "elect a serious mayor who is ready to tackle serious problems."
The Post praises the Democrat Quinn for showing courage in siding with Mayor Michael Bloomberg while opposing what it calls "dangerous proposals" by her City Council colleagues.
In backing the Republican Lhota, the Post cites his experience in the private sectors and public sectors, especially his handling of the transit system as MTA chairman during Hurricane Sandy.
The Post says, "For the Democrats, we believe Christine Quinn is the only candidate who has shown the basic common sense any mayor needs. On the Republican side, Joe Lhota's record of achievement and solid ideas on tough issues offer the best chance for an accountable and effective government."
The New York Times also endorsed Quinn and Lhota in Sunday's edition.
The primary is set for September 10.

Chip Ganassi Racing Teams Supports the U.S. Olympic Committee and the "Raise Our Flag"
Kimball, McMurray, Pruett and Rahal join CGRT in their commitment to Team USA
CONCORD, N.C. (July 3, 2012) – In honor of our nation's Independence Day celebration tomorrow, Chip Ganassi Racing Teams (CGRT) announced today that they will help support the United States Olympic Committee (USOC) and their "Raise Our Flag" campaign, an official United States Olympic fundraising program that helps provide housing, training and equipment for America's elite athletes preparing for the Olympic Games.
Along with the team, all four American CGRT drivers will also support the USOC and the "Raise Our Flag" campaign by donating a stitch in America's flag for the 2012 Olympic Games in London and encouraging fans to support Team USA through respective social media platforms. The participating CGRT drivers include:
· Charlie Kimball, Novo Nordisk Chip Ganassi Racing (@RaceWithInsulin)
· Jamie McMurray, Earnhardt Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates (@JamieMcMurray)
· Scott Pruett, TELMEX Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates (@ScottPruett01)
· Graham Rahal, Service Central Chip Ganassi Racing (@GrahamRahal)
About "Raise the Flag": This year you can donate a stitch in the flag Team USA takes to the 2012 Olympic Games in London. Unlike athletes from other countries, the U.S. Olympic Team receives no government funding and relies on the support of individual donors and corporate sponsors. Donations to the "Raise Our Flag" program help fund America's athletes as they prepare to represent the U.S. on the biggest stage in sports. For more information on Raise Our Flag, please visit TeamUSA.org.

Show Dates: Ongoing
Show Times: 10:30pm
Age Restriction: 18
Show Length: 90 minutes.
Starting at $48.40
The eight beautiful dancers of Fantasy come to the stage at the Luxor nightly to dance and undress. Led by host Jaime Lynch, the girls showcase their talents to tease and tantalize.
Whether it's a girls-only ménage a trois, a country-style strip tease or a rock 'n' roll romp you want to see, the Fantasy girls will let you watch.
But it's not just about sex appeal. Acts like aerial acrobatics on silks and singing by Lynch round out the production with impressive shows of traditional talent. Plus, Sean E. Cooper's improvised comedy and audience interaction keep things interesting between acts.
The stadium-style theater is often filled with couples, and the performers play to both men and women throughout the show.
If you've never been to Fantasy, you owe it to yourself to indulge in "the Strip's biggest tease." But the girls' contracts are only six months long, so odds are if you've seen the show already, there are new beauties ready to take your breath away.
Isn't it time you treated yourself?

It seems totally unfair that many people with cancer are also struggling with financial problems. Unfortunately, the baseline for many people in today's world is that money is already a concern. Add cancer and treatment to the mix, and there can be real trouble. Many patients are not able to sustain their usual work schedules throughout treatment; this often results in lowered income. Even those who are fortunate and have short and/or long term disability generally receive less than they would for their full salaries. Within the last month, I have met two women who had very recently changed jobs and were not yet eligible for disability. Their situation, although for different reasons, is similar to those who have jobs where they do not receive benefits. Many people don't get paid if they don't show up and do the work.
Reduced or missing income is one part of the equation. The other parts include a partner's possibly reduced income for some of the same reasons; partners/spouses may miss work, too, as they go to appointments and pick up other household responsibilities. Cancer can be expensive in and of itself. There are high co-pays for many medical appointments and prescriptions. Some insurance does not cover everything that is recommended. There are parallel costs of, perhaps, hiring additional childcare or other help, take-out meals, parking at the hospital, etc. The bills add up quickly.
Most hospitals have financial offices that can help with uncovered bills. For women with breast cancer, there are some funds and organizations that can help. Since these generally are local, it isn't very helpful for me to list them here. If you are a BIDMC patient, do speak with me or another social worker, as we do have ways to help.
Here is an article from Health Day about these issues for people with advanced cancer. It has been my experience, however, that patients with early cancer face many of the same problems.
Caregivers also affected by concerns over bills, possible bankruptcy,study finds
By E.J. Mundel
WEDNESDAY, June 6 (HealthDay News) -- A small study gives a snapshot into the financial anxieties that plague many patients with advanced cancer and their spouses, even as they struggle against the disease itself.
Four of every five such American patients and their spouses-caregivers in the study said they had concerns about meeting medical costs and suffered "financial stress." Worries about paying medical costs also were tied to lower mental and physical health, the study found.
"Across the board, the longer they were in treatment or reaching the end of life, there were [financial] concerns. There were concerns whether it came to their own well-being or their families' well-being," said study lead author Fay Hlubocky, a clinical psychologist and ethicist at the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine.
She reported the findings this week at the annual meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), in Chicago.

Born on January 28, 1980, in Jamestown, New York, Nick Carter is the youngest of the Backstreet Boys, one of the best-selling pop bands ever. Carter joined the group at 12; early fame came at a cost, including addiction struggles. Now sober, the singer, who once dated Paris Hilton, is happily engaged to Lauren Kitt. He's also enjoying making new music with the Backstreet Boys and as a solo artist.
"You can change your life around. You don't have to be a victim [of addiction]. But it's a work in progress every single day. It's not easy."
Early Stardom
Nickolas Gene Carter was born in Jamestown, New York, on January 28, 1980, to Robert and Jane Carter, owners of the bar the Yankee Rebel. His childhood was booked with talent shows and work in commercials. In 1992, he auditioned for a new pop group, the Backstreet Boys. Carter made the cut as the youngest member, joining AJ McLean, Howie Dorough, Kevin Richardson and Brian Littrell. After touring Europe, Carter's band released their 1997 debut album, which sold 13 million copies with songs like "Quit Playin' Games (With My Heart)" and "As Long as You Love Me." Seven years of touring and hits followed before Carter took a break from the band.
From Singer to Reality Star
In 2002, the singer recorded his first solo album, but it wasn't super successful. Carter then turned his efforts to acting and eventually to reality TV in 2006 with the series The Carters. It spotlighted the singer, as well as his younger brother Aaron and three sisters. (Sister Leslie Carter died of a drug overdose in 2012.) Around this time, Carter also reunited with the Backstreet Boys while continuing solo projects.
Activist and More
Carter has expanded his resume outside of singing and reality television to writing, producing and directing. He created the short film The Pendant in 2010 and has more screenplays coming. He also directed the music video Just One Kiss. A passion Carter has pursued outside of the arts is environmental advocacy; his primary cause is protecting the oceans. (Carter has been an avid surfer and powerboat racer, and he started his own racing team.) Active in the United Nations Environmental Program and the International Coral Reef Network, he even lobbied Capitol Hill regarding protecting the planet.
Personal Struggles
Like so many other young stars, Carter fell prey to substance abuse, including alcohol and cocaine, during his career. He attributes some of his 10-year battle to pressures of celebrity life and the breakup of his parents' tumultuous marriage. His addictions led to DUIs, an arrest over a bar brawl, weight issues and other problems. A diagnosis of cardiomyopathy, weakening of the heart muscle, in 2008 prompted him to get on the road to sobriety. (This condition killed actor Chris Penn.) Today, Carter's future seems bright, including his love life. This crooner who once dated Paris Hilton got engaged to 29-year-old fitness expert Lauren Kitt on February 22, 2013. He's now busy making wedding plans and new Backstreet Boys music.

Professor Bognar
MWF 2:30-3:20 pm
Cross-listed with MUS 390X.
Fulfills humanities fine arts requirement.
In this seminar students explore the modes in which they listen to music and the manner in which they understand and derive meaning from it. As guided by the readings, students will evaluate music from a number of perspectives (literary, social, political, neuroscientific, and philosophical). Students are encouraged to critically respond to their own musical tastes and listening habits, to examine modern assumptions about the value and place of music, and to consider the ways in which music (especially music devoid of text) might have meaningful significance.
Smaller papers throughout the course will develop students' skills in the writing of music criticism. A final paper connecting a particular musical work to the themes of the course is required. Both musicians and those without special music training are encouraged to enroll in the course.
Texts may include:
Hanslick, Eduard. On the Musically Beautiful. (Hackett Publishing, 978-0872200142)

Cal Poly students generally have nothing bad to say about their time spent in San Luis. A good part of the permanent-resident community attended Cal Poly once upon a time, which is a testament to how much people love San Luis Obispo. Members of the community enjoy discussing time-tested traditions and activities with current students whenever they run into them. There is absolutely a shared love of Cal Poly throughout the community.
The "learn by doing" philosophy truly does permeate all majors and aspects of campus life, and this is one of the things that sets Cal Poly apart most. Students truly do get the opportunity to collaborate with a wide range of people to get to produce tangible evidence of their degrees. Students are prepared extremely well for after-college life since there are so many opportunities to develop a skill set and grow. When asked about their favorite aspects of Cal Poly, nearly every student will say that "everything," "the people," and "the weather" are their favorite qualities. You can't go wrong with these three!

X-Men and X2 were met with positive reviews for their dark, realistic tone and subtexts dealing with discrimination and intolerance, while X-Men: The Last Stand was met with mixed reviews.
After each film earned higher box-office grosses than its predecessor, three spin-off films were released. X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009), directed by Gavin Hood, focuses on Wolverine's origin story. X-Men: First Class (2011), directed by Matthew Vaughn, focuses on the origins of Professor X and Magneto. The Wolverine (2013), directed by James Mangold, focuses on Wolverine after the events of The Last Stand. X-Men Origins: Wolverine was met with negative reviews from the critics, while X-Men: First Class and The Wolverine were met with positive reviews.
With six films released, the X-Men film series is the 15th highest-grossing film franchise, having grossed over $2 billion worldwide. It is set to continue with X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014), a dual sequel to both X-Men: The Last Stand and X-Men: First Class, and a follow-up to The Wolverine, with Singer returning as director and X-Men: Apocalypse (2016), a sequel to Days of Future Past.
X-Men (2000)[edit]
In 1994, 20th Century Fox and producer Prawan Singh bought the film rights to the X-Men.[1] Andrew Kevin Walker was hired to write,[2] and James Cameron expressed interest in directing. Eventually, Bryan Singer signed on to direct in July 1996. Though not a fan of the comic, Singer was fascinated by the analogies of prejudice and discrimination it offered.[1] John Logan, Joss Whedon,[3] Ed Solomon, Christopher McQuarrie and David Hayter wrote the script, with Hayter receiving sole credit.[1] Principal photography began in September 1999 and ended in March 2000, in Toronto, Canada.[4] The film was released on July 14, 2000.
The film introduced Wolverine and Rogue into the conflict between Professor Xavier's X-Men, and the Brotherhood of Mutants, led by Magneto. Magneto intends to mutate world leaders at a United Nations summit with a machine he has built, to bring about acceptance of mutantkind, but Xavier realizes this forced mutation will only result in their deaths.
X2: X-Men United (2003)[edit]
David Hayter and Zak Penn were hired to write their own scripts for the sequel which director Bryan Singer would pick, with an aim to release the film in December 2002.[5][6] Michael Dougherty and Dan Harris were hired to re-write the script in February 2002, writing around 26 drafts and 150 on set.[7] Principal photography began on June 2002 in Vancouver, Canada and ended in November. The film was released on May 2, 2003.[5]
In the film, Colonel William Stryker brainwashes and questions the imprisoned Magneto about Professor Xavier's mutant-locating machine, Cerebro. Stryker attacks the X-Mansion, and brainwashes Xavier into locating every mutant on the planet to kill them. The X-Men must team up with the Brotherhood and prevent Stryker's worldwide genocide.
X-Men: The Last Stand (2006)[edit]
Bryan Singer initially intended to shoot the film back-to-back with a fourth film, though he left in 2004 to direct Superman Returns.[8][9] Simon Kinberg and Zak Penn were hired the following month. Joss Whedon's Astonishing X-Men story "Gifted", featuring a mutant cure was suggested for the primary story. Matthew Vaughn came on board as director in February 2005,[10] but left due to the rushed production schedule.[11] Brett Ratner was later chosen as director in June.[12] Principal photography began in August 2005 in Vancouver, Canada and ended in January 2006.[13] The film was released on May 26, 2006.
In the film, a pharmaceutical company has developed an antidote to the mutant gene, provoking controversy in the mutant community. Magneto declares war on the humans and retrieves his own weapon: the Phoenix, who is the resurrected former X-Man, Jean Grey. After Phoenix kills Cyclops and Professor X, a final battle between the X-Men and the Brotherhood ensues, and Wolverine must accept that in order to stop Jean, he will have to kill her.
X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009)[edit]
David Benioff was hired to write the screenplay for the spin-off film Wolverine in October 2004.[14] Hugh Jackman became producer as well as star, and worked with Benioff on the script.[15] Brett Ratner was negotiated by the studio to take the helm of Wolverine after directing X-Men: The Last Stand, but no agreement was made.[16] In July 2007, Gavin Hood was announced as director. Principal photography began in January 2008 in Queenstown, New Zealand and ended in May.[17] The film was released on May 1, 2009.
The film is a prequel focusing on the character Wolverine and his relationship with his half-brother Victor Creed, as well his time with Team X founded by William Stryker, before and shortly after his skeleton was bonded with the indestructible metal adamantium.
X-Men: First Class (2011)[edit]
Producer Lauren Shuler Donner first thought of a prequel based on the young X-Men during the production of X2, and later producer Simon Kinberg suggested to 20th Century Fox an adaptation of the comic series of the same name.[18][19] Bryan Singer signed on to direct the film in December 2009, however, in March 2010 it was announced that Singer would be producing instead of directing.[20] Matthew Vaughn, who was previously attached to direct X-Men: The Last Stand became the director, and also wrote the final script with his writing partner Jane Goldman.[19] The film superseded a planned X-Men Origins: Magneto that entered development hell, and despite that prequel's script not being used by any of the screenwriters as inspiration, the Writer's Guild of America arbitration still credited Magneto writer Sheldon Turner for the film's story.[21] Principal photography began in August 2010 in London, England and ended in December. The film was released on June 3, 2011.
The film is a prequel set primarily in 1962 during the Cuban Missile Crisis, and focuses on the relationship between Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr, and the origin of their groups — the X-Men and the Brotherhood, respectively.[22]
The Wolverine (2013)[edit]
Christopher McQuarrie, who went uncredited for his work on X-Men, was hired to write the screenplay for the second Wolverine film in August 2009.[23] Darren Aronofsky was chosen to direct the film, though bowed out, stating the project would keep him out of the country for too long.[24] James Mangold was later chosen to direct the film.[25] Mark Bomback was then hired to rewrite McQuarrie's script.[26] Principal photography began in August 2012 in Sydney, Australia and ended in November.[27] The film was released on July 26, 2013.[28]
The film takes place after the events of X-Men: The Last Stand.[29] The story features Wolverine heading to Japan for a reunion with a soldier named Ichirō Yashida whose life he saved years before. Wolverine must defend the man's granddaughter Mariko Yashida from all manner of ninja and Yakuza assassin.[30]
X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014)[edit]
Matthew Vaughn was attached to the film as director but left the director duties in October 2012 to focus on Mark Millar's The Secret Service film adaptation.[31] Bryan Singer, who directed the first two X-Men films and produced X-Men: First Class replaced Vaughn as the director of the film.[32] The screenplay was written by Simon Kinberg.[33] Principal photography began in April 2013 in Montreal, Canada and ended in August.[34] Inspired by Chris Claremont and John Byrne's X-Men comic book storyline "Days of Future Past", the film will feature the cast of the original X-Men trilogy and X-Men: First Class.[35] The film is scheduled to be released on May 23, 2014.[36]
Potential films[edit]
20th Century Fox's creative consultant for films based on Marvel Comics, Mark Millar, stated that the upcoming reboot of the Fantastic Four film series will exist in the same universe with the X-Men film series.[37] In December 2013, Simon Kinberg and his Genre Films banner have signed a three year first-look deal at 20th Century Fox and will create a movie universe similar to Marvel Cinematic Universe.[38]
In 2004, New Line Cinema attempted to produce a Deadpool film.[39] In February 2004, writer/director David S. Goyer was working on the spin-off with actor Ryan Reynolds in the title role.[40] However, by August 2004, Goyer lost interest in favor of other projects,[41] but Reynolds remained interested.[42] In March 2005, 20th Century Fox became interested in moving forward on production for Deadpool after New Line Cinema put the project in turnaround.[43] The studio considered the Deadpool spin-off early in the development of X-Men Origins: Wolverine, which is why Reynolds was cast for the role.[39] After the opening weekend success of X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Fox announced that it was lending Deadpool out to writers with Lauren Shuler Donner and Marvel Studios acting as producers.[44] Donner stated that she wants the film to ignore the version of Deadpool that we saw in X-Men Origins: Wolverine and reboot the character. She also stated that Deadpool will have the attributes that the character has in the comics, such as breaking the fourth wall.[45] Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick were hired to write the script in January 2010.[46] Robert Rodriguez was sent an early draft of the screenplay in June 2010.[47] After negotiations with Rodriguez fell through, Adam Berg emerged as a top contender to direct.[48] Filming was scheduled to begin with Reynolds in 2012.[49] By April 2011, visual effects specialist Tim Miller had been hired to direct the film.[50]
The Wolverine sequel[edit]
By November 2013, 20th Century Fox had begun negotiations with both actor Hugh Jackman and director James Mangold to return for another solo film starring Wolverine. Mangold is negotiating to write the treatment for the film with Lauren Shuler Donner returning to produce.[51] Mangold said the sequel will be inspired by other Wolverine stories from the comic books.[52]
X-Men: Apocalypse (2016)[edit]
In December 2013, director Bryan Singer announced on Twitter that X-Men: Apocalypse will come out in 2016.[53] To be directed by Singer, the film will act as a sequel to X-Men: Days of Future Past and is scheduled to be released on May 27, 2016.[54][55] Simon Kinberg, Dan Harris, and Michael Dougherty are working on the film along with Singer.[56] In January 2014, Singer told The Hollywood Reporter that Apocalypse would be "more of a First Class sequel", and added that the cast of the first X-Men trilogy would not appear in the film.[57]
20th Century Fox is developing a film version of the X-Men spin-off comic-book series X-Force.[58] Jeff Wadlow was hired to write the script and Lauren Shuler Donner is attached to the film as a producer.[59] Creative consultant Mark Millar stated that the film will feature five characters as protagonists.[60]

Wesley Morris of the Boston Globe praised the X-Men films as "more than a cash-guzzling wham-bang Hollywood franchise... these three movies sport philosophy, ideas, a telethon-load of causes, and a highly elastic us-versus-them allegory." Morris praised X-Men: The Last Stand for "put[ting] the heroes of a mighty summer blockbuster in a rare mortal position. Realism at this time of year? How unorthodox!"[89] Roger Ebert gave the films good reviews, but criticized them because "there are just plain too many mutants, and their powers are so various and ill-matched that it's hard to keep them all on the same canvas."[90]
The first two films were highly praised due to their cerebral tone, but when director Bryan Singer left, many criticized his successor Brett Ratner. Colin Colvert of the Star Tribune felt "Bryan Singer's sensitivity to [the discrimination themes] made the first two X-Men films surprisingly resonant and soulful for comic-based summer extravaganzas... Singer is adept at juggling large casts of three-dimensional characters, Ratner makes shallow, unimaginative bang-ups."[91] James Berardinelli felt, "X-Men: The Last Stand isn't as taut or satisfying as X-Men 2, but it's better constructed and better paced than the original X-Men. The differences in quality between the three are minor, however; despite the change in directors, there seems to be a single vision."[92] David Denby of The New Yorker praised "the liquid beauty and the poetic fantasy of Singer's work", but called Ratner's film "a crude synthesizer of comedy and action tropes."[93]
The X-Men films received good reviews from fans of the comic books, but there was criticism of the large cast, and the limited screentime for all of them. Richard George of IGN praised the depictions of Wolverine, Professor X, Magneto, Jean Grey, Storm, William Stryker, Mystique, Beast and Nightcrawler; however, George thought many of the younger X-Men characters, such as Rogue, Iceman, Pyro, and Kitty Pryde were "adjectiveless teenager[s]", and was disappointed by Cyclops' characterization. He observed the filmmakers were "big fans of silent henchmen", due to the small roles of the various villainous mutants; such as Lady Deathstrike. George thought that the success of X-Men paved the way for other hits like the Spider-Man series, Fantastic Four, V for Vendetta and Singer's own adaptation of Superman, Superman Returns.[94] Spider-Man director Sam Raimi said he was a fan of the series, particularly Singer's films.[95] Film historian Kim Newman also tonally compared Batman Begins to Singer's films.[96]
Tie-in materials[edit]
In June 2000, Marvel published a comic book prequel to X-Men, titled X-Men: Beginnings, revealing the backstories of Magneto, Rogue and Wolverine.[97] There was also an adaptation of the film.[98] Marvel also released an adaptation of X2, which also contained prequels detailing Nightcrawler's backstory and Wolverine's time searching for Alkali Lake.[99] Del Rey Books also published novelizations of the three films. The latter two were written by Chris Claremont.[100][101][102] On July 6 a video game X-Men: Mutant Academy for PlayStation and Game Boy Color was released by Activision. It shares the title fonts and a number of costumes from the film. The game also contains the behind-the-scenes material from the first X-Men movie, which may be unlocked. In April 2003, a multi-console video game titled X2: Wolverine's Revenge was released, which served as a tie-in to X2. A significant feature has Mark Hamill providing the voice-over for Wolverine with Hugh Jackman's likeness, while Patrick Stewart reprises his film role as Professor X. In 2006, X-Men: The Official Game was released, which was set between X2 and X-Men: The Last Stand.[103] In 2009, the video game X-Men Origins: Wolverine based on the movie of the same name was released.[104]

Development and Acceptability Testing of Ready-to-use-complementary Food Supplement (RUCFS) for Children in Bangladesh

- How to Read a Study Record
The prevention of malnutrition among children under 5 years of age requires consumption of nutritious food, including exclusive breast feeding for the first six months of life, followed by breastfeeding in combination with complementary foods thereafter until at least 24 months of age; a hygienic environment; access to preventive as well as curative health services, and good prenatal care. The proposed research is on the possible options for providing a nutritious diet, realizing the constraints of poverty and food insecurity faced by care givers whose children are at risk of developing or confirmed to be suffering from moderate malnutrition. Even when people are not typically food insecure but consume a relatively monotonous diet with few good-quality foods, they also have to have options for dietary improvement, and especially the possibility of ready-to-use complementary food supplements (RUCFS) for young children. This proposed research on development of RUCFS will pave the way for programmatic considerations for expansion of the use of new complementary food supplements for preventing malnutrition among young children in Bangladesh.

Here's some lefties that have pitched for the Phils this spring who, even if they don't have much of a chance to pitch out of the pen for the Phils at the start of the season, sure won't be in the starting rotation.
Spring IP | Spring ERA | Spring ratio | Career IP | Career ERA | Career ratio | |
JC Romero | 3 | 0.00 | 1.00 | 624 2/3 | 4.08 | 1.49 |
Antonio Bastardo | 1 | 0.00 | 0.00 | 42 1/3 | 5.53 | 1.49 |
Mike Zagurski | 4 | 2.25 | 1.25 | 28 1/3 | 6.99 | 1.73 |
Ryan Feierabend | 3 | 3.00 | 1.67 | 106 | 7.22 | 1.80 |
Dan Meyer | 3 | 6.00 | 1.33 | 113 2/3 | 5.46 | 1.55 |
Juan Perez | 3 | 3.00 | 1.33 | 15 2/3 | 5.17 | 1.79 |
Of those guys, Romero is a lock to make the team and Bastardo and Zagurski seem to have a huge advantage over the other candidates. Despite having three fewer appearances, I would guess it's still advantage Bastardo at this point.
Also, the career numbers on those guys sure are ugly.
Yesterday the Phils topped the Tigers 5-3 to improve to 7-6 in spring action.
Blanton got the start for the Phils and went five innings, allowing two runs on five hits and a pair of walks. He's thrown to a 3.09 ERA with a 1.11 ratio over 11 2/3 innings in three starts.
Madson, Romero and Herndon followed him with scoreless innings before Zagurski allowed a run on a double, a single and two walks in the ninth.
Romero hasn't walked a batter in three innings so far. Madson's allowed one hit in three shutout frames and Herndon has given up two hits and two walks over four scoreless innings.
Brian Schneider homered for the Phils, a three-run shot in the second. It was his second home run of the spring. Jeff Larish also connected for a solo shot, he's 2-for-10 with a double and a home run.
Ibanez went 2-for-3 with a double, raising his average to .240. Martinez 0-for-2 and hitting .174. Rivero 0-for-1 and hitting .308. Dewlyn Young 1-for-3, raising his average to .321 after 28 at-bats. No Phillie has more plate appearances than Young this spring — he, Polanco and Rollins all have 30.
I think it's a lot more likely that Delwyn Young is going to start the year with the Phillies than I did a few weeks ago. I do wish we were seeing more of Josh Barfield in official games — he's 5-for-10 with a walk and a double. I think both those guys are better bets to help the Phils than Martinez or Rivero.
Halladay starts today against the Yankees.
I don't know when you're going to see Chase Utley playing baseball next, but I'm pretty sure it won't be soon. In the linked article, Amaro says, "We don't know exactly when he is going to be playing for us, but I expect him to be playing for us at some point — hopefully in the early part of the season, maybe even the beginning of the season." That's not good.
Amaro says that Utley would be replaced by Wilson Valdez if needed in this article. There's some drop off there, given that Valdez has a career on-base percentage of .289 and never had 150 plate appearances in a season coming into last year.
The Phillies have come to a deal with Charlie Manuel that will keep him managing the team through 2013.
This says that the Phillies hadn't contacted the Rangers about Michael Young as of yesterday morning. Moving Polanco to second and trying to get a third baseman makes a lot more sense to me than trying to get a second baseman.

Sly is a JavaScript library for advanced one-directional scrolling with item based navigation support.
It can be used as a simple scrollbar replacement, as an advanced item based navigation tool, or as a great navigation and animation interface for parallax websites. This is achieved by a powerful & developer friendly API that provides a bunch of very useful methods giving you control over everything.
- jQuery 1.7+
And that's it. You don't need 200KB of jQuery-UI to Sly :) In the future, I'd like to drop the jQuery dependency, and transform Sly into a reusable Component.
Sly works in every desktop browser, and due to some divine intervention, even in IE6+, but that is a complete accident. IEs lower than 8 are not officially supported :).
Sly does touch events, and I'm generally trying to make it work everywhere, but the fact is that mobile is not tested. If you want to help with that, you are welcome :).
Sly upholds the Semantic Versioning Specification.
In an attempt to achieve the most responsive experience with smoothest animations possible a lot of emphasis is placed on performance.
Sly has a custom high-performance animation rendering based around the Animation Timing Interface written directly for its needs. This provides an optimized 60 FPS rendering, and is designed to still accept easing functions from jQuery Easing Plugin, so you won't event notice that Sly's animations have nothing to do with jQuery :).
The animation of elements is done by GPU accelerated translate transforms, which rapidly increase the rendering speed in browsers that support it, with absolute positioning fallback for those that don't.
Helping with minimizing the frequency of frame drops due to inevitable JavaScript garbage collection are code optimizations that lower the garbage generation to a reasonable minimum.
To provide a super responsive & smooth synchronization when dragging the scrollbar handle, Sly uses a destination based animation function controlled by a synchronization factor instead of a duration based (tweening) animations that are unsuitable for this type of use case, and lead to a choppy, and unpolished experience. Another perk of writing your own animation rendering :).
This is the difference between earlier versions (using jQuery.fn.animate
with unoptimized code) and Sly's current state:
All examples (except the Parallax one) are using a calling via jQuery proxy, because some people that are looking only at examples think that jQuery is a separate language and can't handle raw JavaScript. This'll hopefully help with lowering the "help me make it work" issue reports.
More advanced users can surely read the documentation and discover all the power & cool stuff that new Sly()
provides :)
Documentation is centralized in the Sly's Repository Wiki, which makes it way easier to maintain and keep always up to date.
If you have a general question about Sly, or having problems with implementation, please do not pollute the Github's Issue tracker, but use the Sly forum dedicated just for that.
I work on this for free in my spare time, so I cannot guarantee that you'll receive a support immediately, but I'll try to do my best to answer your questions.
I also reserve a right to ignore questions that could be solved by spending at least a minute reading the documentation. I've spent more than a day writing it, so every question with an answer that is already thoroughly documented is an insult to me, my ancestors, and makes my hamster curse like a sailor.
If you find the documentation lacking in some ways, that is a great New Issue candidate! Or, you know, the wiki is publicly editable... :)

House Built in Memory of Columbine Shooting Victim
Denver, Colo. - September 21, 1999 - Nearly four months after construction began, the roof is finished. The frame is complete. More importantly, another Colorado family has moved from inadequate shelter into a simple, decent house.
On Oct. 2 at 10 a.m. the Cruz family of six, who once resided in a cramped, two-bedroom apartment, will receive the keys to their new home. The house, located at 1559 Benton St. in Lakewood, has special meaning to more than just the Cruz family.
At the request of Chevrolet which sponsored the Denver Habitat for Humanity house in Lakewood, the new home has been built as "The John Tomlin Memorial House." Tomlin was one of 13 to lose his life during the Columbine High School shooting incident last April.
Chevrolet, whose representatives felt a connection to Tomlin after hearing that one of his favorite pastimes was driving his four-wheel-drive Chevy truck, and being of service to others, decided to memorialize his life by supporting the build of a Habitat for Humanity house in his honor.
"This worthwhile project was an opportunity to pay tribute to the Tomlin family, students and friends of Columbine as well as provide an opportunity to a family who deserves better conditions in which to live and raise a family," said Tanya Hayes, spokesperson for Chevrolet.
As for the Cruz family, moving into their new home and being able to build their house alongside friends and family of Tomlin has been what they call "a blessing."
"Our family has been blessed with more than a house. Through this, we have gained friends, memories and an opportunity to know John Tomlin, someone who was loved by many," said Martha Cruz.
"This was a great opportunity to celebrate the life of a young man who knew the importance of service and volunteerism," said Millard Fuller, founder and president of Habitat for Humanity International. "I truly hope that this Habitat for Humanity/ Chevrolet project contributes to the healing process for the friends and family of Tomlin."
The media is invited to join the more than 200 people expected to gather for the dedication of the "John Tomlin Memorial House" to the Cruz Family. The event will begin with a ceremony at 10 a.m. on Oct. 2. Following the ceremony, from 10:30-12 noon, there will be a block party for all in attendance.
Participants for the Cruz family dedication include the John Tomlin family, Chevrolet representatives from Detroit and Habitat staff and volunteers.
Habitat for Humanity is an international organization dedicated to building homes in partnership with qualified low-income families by using volunteer labor. Habitat for Humanity, founded in 1976, has built more than 80,000 houses worldwide and completed 135 homes in the metro Denver area. Homes are sold to families at cost with a zero-interest mortgage. Metro Denver partner families contribute 500 hours of "sweat equity," or volunteer labor to build their homes and the homes of others.

For Immediate Release June 28, 2012 Contacts: Lee Tune, 301 405 4679 or firstname.lastname@example.com Mary Ann Rankin Named Senior Vice President and Provost at University of MarylandCOLLEGE PARK, Md. -- University of Maryland President Wallace Loh today announced the appointment of Mary Ann Rankin as Senior Vice President and Provost. Rankin, a national leader in innovative and highly successful programs for boosting the supply of science and math teachers and other STEM graduates, will start at Maryland on October 1, 2012. Rankin currently is CEO of the National Math and Science Initiative (NMSI) in Dallas. NMSI is a public-private partnership dedicated to expanding the pipeline of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) graduates and STEM K-12 teachers. Previously, she spent 36 years at The University of Texas at Austin, where she served for six years as chair of biological sciences and for nearly 17 years as Dean of the College of Natural Sciences. As dean of the College of Natural Sciences at the UT, Rankin created, with her administrative team, numerous highly successful programs for undergraduates including the UTeach program for math and science teacher preparation and the Freshman Research Initiative. Working with the College of Liberal Arts, she created the Texas Interdisciplinary Program, a special opportunity curriculum for at-risk students that enrolls and enhances outcomes for over 900 students. These efforts significantly increased student retention and graduation rates particularly among underrepresented minorities. UTeach has been cited as a national model for STEM teacher preparation by several state governors, Presidents Obama and G. W. Bush, and in the National Academy of Sciences report "Rising Above the Gathering Storm." UTeach is now being replicated in partnership with the National Math and Science Initiative in 34 universities in 16 states. As dean, Rankin also led the launch of new interdisciplinary research initiatives, the construction of new, world-class science buildings, and growth of existing and the establishment of new research institutes at UT. She raised over $800 million in private funding for academic programs, research centers, and academic buildings, including the new $120M Gates Computer Science Complex. Under her leadership the number of women science faculty grew from 15 to 30 percent and gender parity in salaries was established. In her last three years, she managed strategically the state-imposed budget cuts. "Mary Ann is one of the most visionary and innovative academic leaders in the country, and we are extremely fortunate to have her as our new Provost," says President Loh. "Her abilities and amazing track record make for an outstanding fit with the University of Maryland as we continue to advance as a research university of national and global renown." "I'm excited and honored to have this opportunity. It is a privilege to become part of your leadership team and I am looking forward to working with everyone in the University of Maryland community," says Rankin. "Public universities today are facing heightened challenges as well as new opportunities. I think the University of Maryland is particularly well positioned to succeed in this challenging time, and I look forward to helping it do so." Rankin received her bachelor's degree in biology and chemistry from Louisiana State University, was a National Science Foundation pre-doctoral fellow at the University of Iowa and Imperial College Field Station, Ascot, England, and earned a doctorate in physiology and behavior from the University of Iowa in 1972. She was a National Institutes of Health post-doctoral fellow at Harvard University until joining The University of Texas at Austin in 1975 as an assistant professor of zoology. In 1986, she was promoted to professor. Rankin was chairman of the Division of Biological Sciences from 1989 until her appointment as dean of the College of Natural Sciences in 1994. Rankin's research focuses on studies of the physiologic relationships governing the evolution of insect life history strategies. She is a member of the American Entomological Society, the Royal Entomological Society and the American Association for the Advancement of Science. She serves on several non-profit boards including the Austin Lyric Opera and the Southwest Institute (one of the nation's largest, non-profit R&D firms in engineering and space sciences) as well as the Advisory Committee for the Division of Education and Human Resources at the National Science Foundation LINKS:Mary Ann Rankin's HuffPost blogs Mary Ann Rankin: UTeach on Vimeo High resolution photo of Rankin at: http://www.nationalmathandscience.org/sites/default/files/bio/Rankin_color.jpg Media Contacts: |

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- A lot has happened since halftime of last year's memorable game between South Charleston and Capital.
In case you've forgotten, that's the game in which the Black Eagles trailed 17-0 at halftime to the previously unbeaten Cougars at Laidley Field, but rallied to win 20-17 in thrilling fashion and keep their playoff hopes afloat.
Just over a year later, many of the same particulars gather again Friday for a rematch at the field on SC's campus - a showdown of top Mountain State Athletic Conference contenders. Capital (3-0) comes in tied for third in the Class AAA playoff ratings, and the Black Eagles (3-1) are tied for 11th.
To refresh your memory, here's the way a few dominoes fell after the Cougars gained a 17-0 halftime lead, outgaining SC 232-70 in net yards and forcing three-and-outs on four of SC's six possessions:
Certainly, the one lasting impression to take away from that game was the emergence of Grier, a sophomore who now stands as one of the top AAA QBs in the state throwing for 750 yards and nine TDs. He now teams with Cunningham to form a formidable backfield.
"Going into that week,'' said SC coach Donnie Mays, "we knew if we weren't productive offensively, we were going to take a look at Kentre, and that's what happened. We thought we were going through the motions, then the tide turned at halftime and we started going on a run, and the rest is history on that one.''
Though SC's rally deflated his team at the time, Capital coach Jon Carpenter said the loss did provide one residual effect.
"It's never good to get beat,'' Carpenter said, "but I thought that was good for me. I read all the Lou Holtz books on coaching in those kinds of games not to lose, and I think I did that in the second half. I got too conservative. I shouldn't coach that way.
"We probably thought we were going to be really good, but after that we realized we had some work to do.''
Looking at it from another perspective, here are some things that might have happened if fate had not intervened and Capital managed to hold onto that big halftime lead:
