The revelation of being a painter
From January until mid-February, painter Patricia Cole will be artist-in-residence at Antioch College.
Courageous conversation at Antioch
A common theme emerged during the Antioch College MLK Day panel on diversity issues at the college. The panelists related similar stories of the stress and isolation of being a minority student. However, they also agreed that the college taught them critical skills that they see as unique to the Antioch experience.
College announces new board chair, extension of full-tuition fellowships
The Antioch College Board of Trustees announced today that current board member Frances Horowitz will take over the position of board chair from Lee Morgan, who will remain on the board as vice-chair but focus on fund-raising. The board also recently voted to extend the four-year full tuition Horace Mann Fellowships to incoming students next fall.

Students take a global look at water
Having approached the topic of water through the disciplines of art, science, history, literature, environmentalism and political science all in one semester, Antioch College faculty members Lewis Trelawny-Cassidy and David Kammler received a range of final projects that reflected their integrative model.
Antioch students assess their year
It's Sunday night on the Antioch College campus and while some students are studying, others are cooking a meal they planned for fellow students. They shared their thoughts on the school year thus far.
Glimpses into Antioch student life
All eyes are on the first group of 34 Antioch College students, who received full tuition scholarships in exchange for the risk, and reward, of helping revive the college. See a gallery of images of student life.
Antioch seeks local jobs for students
As leaders of a school that places work at the heart of its educational experience, Antioch leaders face a challenge: in this economic downturn, they aim to create local jobs for the college's first class of students.

Not receiving all 3 Channels
June 21, 2013 by Patsy Allen
Global 3000 (DW) on MHz
For over a week now I have been unable to watch all three channels of Denver PBS. I especially miss seeing MHz International Mysteries. The channels come in and out, and most of the time there is no signal. Do you have a problem transmitting? I live in Colorado Springs and have always been able to get Denver PBS which I love very much. However, suddenly there is a lot of interference and I lose picture and sound. Can you help me? Thank you!
Report Comment as Inappropriate
CPT12 Response:
Thanks for your email. I am sorry you are having trouble receiving our signal.
The problem you described is usually related to your antenna. There are some things you can check that often resolve the issue.
Make sure all your connections are tight and that the connectors themselves aren't lose or that the cable isn't damaged. At the antenna, if it's been up for a while, it's a good idea to remove the connector and then reconnect it. This will remove the oxidation that may have built up over time.
If you have multiple TV's connected to a single antenna using a splitter, try a direct feed to just one TV (removing the splitter). This will tell you if the splitter is causing some loss. In that case, install an inexpensive TV amplifier (around $20.00 at Radio Shack) between your antenna and the splitter. There's no guarantee this will give you the signal gain you need, but it is worth a try.
If you have a thin RG59 cable, replace it with the heavier digital standard RG6
If you are getting us sometimes and not others, this is normally related to changes in the weather and atmosphere. Your antenna system is good enough to pick us up when the weather is optimal, but not good enough when it's not. Improvements you make to the antenna system should get you more consistent reception. It could be also that your antenna itself may need to be upgraded, though I would look at that as a last resort. If you do decide to upgrade the antenna, here is a website for a manufacturer we have had consistently good results with.
Please feel free to call the station at 303-296-1212 Monday through Friday 9AM to 5PM and ask for either Jonathan or Mark. Either of them can help you with additional troubleshooting. It is important to us that you are able to consistently receive all three of our digital channels.
All the Best,
CPT12 Staff

Out On The Town
We spotted Brenna and Annette as a pair on their day off from work as they were cruising the shopping center and we couldn't help but love their vintage-inspired ensembles. When we asked them about their personal styles, "It depends on our mood that day," they told us. We think their mood-based fashion steers them in the right direction. Here's what they had to say.
brenna's Vintage style InSpirationVintage influence is at its best in Brenna's fun look. "I like to watch movies from the '30s and '40s," she says about the source of her wardrobe inspiration. Long beaded necklaces lend a funky vibe to her checkered dress and she shows us that mixing bright colors can look chic. Get a vintage look with fitted bodices and full skirts and then throw on some timeless Ray Bans and an eclectic piece of jewelry. We hunted down this antique-style encircled necklace from Francesca's Collection. Echo Brenna's vintage wardrobe with these dresses and accessoriesThe Blueberry buckle dress from ModCloth, an online vintage-inspired clothing superstore, was our top pick for its eye-catching color. The blue Ray ban Wayfarers are the perfect touch, as Brenna shows us, to a summer style of this sort. You'll shield the sun and turn heads all in one. Named after the sixth sense of style, the six senses dress sports warm hues that come together for a subtly bright-colored summer dress. We picked out the encircled necklace from Francesca's Collections that will give both of these dresses an extra edge when dangling gracefully from your neck. All about Annette's stylish silhouetteA classic hat and black sunglasses paired with a tight floral dress speak volumes about Annette's personal style. She claims Audrey Hepburn as her style icon and we think the influence shines through. Her dress in a simple silhouette receives a boost from a summery floral pattern. So take a fashion cue from Annette this summer and pair a fun hat with a slimming dress in a floral pattern or bright color. Annette recommends one of her favorite stores, H&M, and we also found similar styles at American Apparel. Get Annette's Audrey-inspired styleWe love the idea of clashing this evergreen u-neck dress with the blue straw David and Young fedora for a daring summer ensemble. If you're not feeling bold enough, rock a simpler fashion forward look by wearing the white straw bowler hat instead. Polish off the look with a classic pair of black sunglasses. The oval framed black beauties caught our attention with their vintage essence while black Ray Bans bring a timeless element to any wardrobe. Even though they seem to be an evergreen item throughout years of style evolution, the fedora hat isn't the only way to top off your look with style. We found a felt boater hat complete with leather trim that we think provides another valid option for heading off into summer's style market.

You might notice the sting of the injection. Within seconds you'd realise you're having trouble moving your eyes and fingers, followed by your arms and legs. If you were standing, you'd collapse. In a heap on the floor, you'd realise nearly every muscle in your body was paralysed. Being fully conscious, your sense of panic would be rising as rapidly as the paralysis was spreading. Swallowing and breathing has become more and more difficult. Slipping into unconsciousness, your last conscious thought may well be "I am going to die." Read More >>

CARYVILLE—A Caryville man was booked at the Campbell County Jail for the 15th time after allegedly assaulting his pregnant girlfriend and the officer who came to her aid. Campbell County Sheriff's Deputy Joshua Jeffers answered a domestic assault call and met with the victim at the end of Kennedy Lane. The pregnant victim told Jeffers that Kevin Lynn Wilson, 35, 535 Park Road, Caryville, struck her in the face and on the back of the head with his fist, reports indicated.
JACKSBORO—Rector Miller has gone from openly opposing Director of Schools Donnie Poston to sitting at his right hand. Miller, who was elected to the board in 2010, was nominated to serve as school board chairman by Danny Wilson. Scott Hill. Mike Orick and Homer Rutherford cast dissenting votes. 2012-13 board chairman Josh Parker was absent. Johnny Creekmore was elected to serve another year as vice-chairman with Orick casting the only no vote. Board of education chairmen are elected each school year.
LaFOLLETTE—Bojangles is looking to open a franchise here. "We hope to have it open by the end of December," said Michael White, a representative from the Charlotte-based company, at the LaFollette City Council meeting. The new franchise will be located on Jacksboro Pike across from Murphy's Express. Councilmember Stephanie Grimm asked White when the project would begin. "We've already started," he said. The Bojangles will employ 40 to 50 people, White said.
LaFOLLETTE—The Shepherd's Home will host its fourth Annual Banquet at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday. The Shepherd's Home is a Christ-centered residential recovery program for women struggling with addiction. "To me, the banquet is a special event," said Larry Tanis, president of the Shepherd's Home board of directors. Tanis described the banquet as a "celebration of the past year." It's a time to show appreciation for people who give their time and money to the Shepherd's Home, he said.
LaFOLLETTE—Community Health of East Tennessee will provide space for a new Veteran's Affairs clinic on the third floor of its facility on Independence Lane. The clinic will provide outpatient services for veterans with low-income or service-related disabilities. "It's going to be a beautiful place," said Kevin Walden, Campbell County Veteran's Affairs director. "It's going to represent our veterans well. We're excited about that." Many local veterans currently seek care in Knoxville.
CAMPBELL COUNTY—Bill Rose was injured with a hernia while serving in the Marine Corps in 1973. Because of it, he wasn't able to continue his service and was discharged. "I had five surgeries after I left Parris Island [S.C.]," Rose said. The injury limited Rose's ability to find gainful employment. "You can't work for somebody like that," Rose said. He was mostly self-employed.
JELLICO—Despite its present-day reputation as a financially-struggling (and oftentimes dysfunctional) mountain town, Jellico is a place steeped in history and Appalachian culture. From its early coal and lumber roots, to its mid-century reputation as the "marriage capital of Tennessee," to its future plans to become a destination for recreational enthusiasts and green business enterprises, there's a lot more to Jellico than meets the eye.
JACKSBORO—Monday night, the Campbell County Commission voted to oppose a landfill Davis Creek Energy, LLC and Ketchen Land Company, Inc. have proposed operating in the Duff Community. "I know we have no control over what Ketchen does," Commissioner Steve Rutherford said. However, Rutherford said the commission could present a united front against the landfill by voting to not support it. Former commissioner Melvin Boshears urged the commission to oppose the landfill if it didn't benefit Campbell County.
LaFOLLETTE—Campbell County Sheriff's Office deputies seized 23 vehicles during two raids on drug "kingpin" Kermit D. York. The saga began Aug. 15 when officers converged on 52-year-old York's home at 711 Ivey Hollow Road. An investigation into York's alleged actions gave officials probable cause to obtain the search warrant.

Not only was the subway shut down, but the Holland Tunnel connecting New York to New Jersey was closed, as was a tunnel between Brooklyn and Manhattan. The Brooklyn Bridge, the George Washington Bridge, the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge and several other spans were closed due to high winds.
The three major airports in the New York area - LaGuardia, Newark Liberty and Kennedy - remained shut down Tuesday.
A construction crane atop a $1.5 billion luxury high-rise in midtown Manhattan collapsed in high winds and dangled precariously. Thousands of people were ordered to leave several nearby buildings as a precaution, including 900 guests at the ultramodern Le Parker Meridien hotel.
Alice Goldberg, 15, a tourist from Paris, was watching television in the hotel - whose slogan is "Uptown, Not Uptight" - when a voice came over the loudspeaker and told everyone to leave.
"They said to take only what we needed, and leave the rest, because we'll come back in two or three days," she said as she and hundreds of others gathered in the luggage-strewn marble lobby. "I hope so."
Trading at the New York Stock Exchange was canceled again Tuesday - the first time the exchange suspended operations for two consecutive days due to weather since an 1888 blizzard struck the city.
Fire destroyed at least 50 homes Monday night in a flooded neighborhood in the Breezy Point section of the borough of Queens, where the Rockaway peninsula juts into the Atlantic Ocean. Firefighters told WABC-TV that they had to use a boat to rescue residents because the water was chest high on the street. About 25 people were trapped in one home, with two injuries reported.
Airlines canceled around 12,500 flights because of the storm, a number that was expected to grow.
Off North Carolina, not far from an area known as "the Graveyard of the Atlantic," a replica of the 18th-century sailing ship HMS Bounty that was built for the 1962 Marlon Brando movie "Mutiny on the Bounty" sank when her diesel engine and bilge pumps failed. Coast Guard helicopters plucked 14 crew members from rubber lifeboats bobbing in 18-foot seas.
A 15th crew member who was found unresponsive several hours after the others was later pronounced dead. The Bounty's captain was still missing.
One of the units at Indian Point, a nuclear power plant about 45 miles north of New York City, was shut down around 10:45 p.m. Monday because of external electrical grid issues, said Entergy Corp., which operates the plant. The company said there was no risk to employees or the public.
And officials declared an "unusual event" at the Oyster Creek nuclear power plant in Lacey Township, N.J., the nation's oldest, when waters surged to 6 feet above sea level during the evening. Within two hours, the situation at the reactor - which was offline for regular maintenance - was upgraded to an alert, the second-lowest in a four-tiered warning system. Oyster Creek provides 9 percent of the state's electricity.
In Baltimore, fire officials said four unoccupied rowhouses collapsed in the storm, sending debris into the street but causing no injuries. Meanwhile, a blizzard in far western Maryland caused a pileup of tractor-trailers that blocked the westbound lanes of Interstate 68 on slippery Big Savage Mountain near the town of Finzel.
"It's like a long-tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs up here," said Bill Wiltson, a Maryland State Police dispatcher.
Hundreds of miles from the storm's center, gusts topping 60 mph prompted officials to close the port of Portland, Maine, and scaring away several cruise ships. A state of emergency in New Hampshire prompted Vice President Joe Biden to cancel a rally in Keene and Republican nominee Mitt Romney's wife, Ann, to call off her bus tour through the Granite State.
About 360,000 people in 30 Connecticut towns were urged to leave their homes under mandatory and voluntary evacuation orders. Christi McEldowney was among those who fled to a Fairfield shelter. She and other families brought tents for their children to play in.
"There's something about this storm," she said. "I feel it deep inside."
Despite dire warnings and evacuation orders that began Saturday, many stayed put.
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie - whose own family had to move to the executive mansion after his home in Mendham, far from the storm's center, lost power - criticized the mayor of Atlantic City for opening shelters there instead of forcing people out.
Eugenia Buono, 77, and her neighbor, Elaine DiCandio, 76, were among several dozen people who took shelter at South Kingstown High School in Narragansett, R.I. They live on Harbor Island, which is connected to the mainland by a causeway.
"I'm not an idiot," said Buono, who survived hurricanes Carol in 1954 and Bob in 1991. "People are very foolish if they don't leave."

TSMC ramps 28nm ARM Cortex-A9 chip to 3.1GHz, gives your desktop jitters
We know TSMC's energy-miser 28-nanometer manufacturing process has a lot of headroom, but the company just ratcheted expectations up by a few notches. Lab workers at Taiwan's semiconductor giant have successfully run a dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 processor at 3.1GHz under normal conditions. That's a 55 percent higher clock speed than the 2GHz maximum that TSMC normally offers, folks, and about twice as fast as a 40nm chip under the same workload. Don't expect that kind of clock speed from your next smartphone or tablet, though: expect processors of this caliber to find "high-performance uses," which takes us that much closer to NVIDIA's Project Denver as well as other ARM-based desktops, notebooks and servers that should give x86 chips a run for their money.

The Agony of Syria
The Syrian Rebellion
Syria: The Fall of the House of Assad
A Woman in the Crossfire: Diaries of the Syrian Revolution
In the face of the current uprising, now in its eighteenth bloody month, Bashar Assad has ordered a sustained use of heavy weaponry against his own people that may be unmatched by any state in modern times. The gory internecine wars in Bosnia, Chechnya, and Sri Lanka saw governments behave with similar savagery, but against what they claimed were separatist revolts. In trying to crush an inclusive, nationwide, and initially peaceful pro-democracy movement that from its inception was unquestionably backed by the vast majority of Syrians, the Assads' army has wreaked devastation akin to that in Grozny or Jaffna or Sarajevo, only across swathes of a country with a far larger population, devastating scores of villages, dozens of towns, and all three of Syria's biggest cities.

Equipment Loan
The DRC maintains an inventory of minor equipment for on-campus loan. Qualified students with disabilities may be eligible to check out adaptive equipment from the DRC. Disabled individuals must be registered with the Disability Resource Center in order to verify eligibility.
The first priority for equipment loan is given to students who require the equipment to ensure they have equal access in classroom, lecture halls, laboratories, and other college programs and activities. Then equipment is provided on a first-come, first-serve basis. The following is a partial list of available equipment:
° Amplification System
° Tape Recorders
° Calculators
° Franklin Spellers
° Reading Pens
Students checking out equipment are responsible for battery replacement in battery-operated equipment and the care and security of the equipment during the term of the loan (semester to semester). Lost, stolen, or damaged equipment must be reported to the DRC immediately.
Prior to receiving equipment, students must first fill out and sign an Equipment Loan Form. The length of checkout varies according to the type of adaptive equipment, student need, and equipment demand. The Equipment Loan Form specifies a return date. Failure to meet the deadline may result in a hold being placed on your account at SCF.
1. Must be registered with DRC with appropriate documentation of disability on file.
2. Request use of adaptive equipment by filling out Equipment Loan Form.
3. Sign Equipment Loan Form
4. Follow instructions for proper care of equipment.
5. Return all equipment and/or accessories to the DRC by the due date.
6. If the equipment is lost, damaged, or stolen report the incident to the DRC office immediately.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "Barrel sample. There is wood here, the fruit is fresh, with a lively acidity on top of the core of tannin. A bright, fresh, blackcurrant wine"
Cellar/Tasting Notes Medium-bodied, with firm tannins and a medium finish. Slightly hollow center palate.
Cellar/Tasting Notes "A distinctive Zin that offers a real sense of place. Aromas of spice and brambly huckleberry lead to zesty, well-focused currant, toasty cinnamon and anise flavors. Tannins are big but ripe. Needs time to bloom."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "A notably ripe yet pleasingly fresh nose of both red and dark berry fruit aromas offers up plenty of Gevrey style earth and humus notes.

Let me hear if you want this phone!
Small size, decent processor, great screen, unlocked for $379 street. I think I'm in love.
I'm currently rocking the Optimus T, but the limited app storage is a bummer. Now that we will have official CM on Sony Xperia devices and an option that isn't a pocket-busting piece of glass, someone else say you want this thing! - 11-02-2011, 12:11 PM #2
Re: Let me hear if you want this phone!
I ordered today, receiving it tommorow. Finally there was a sensible sized phone with ecent specs and camera. The perfect combo for me. Will return with more when it has seen some hours of usage.
It is actually really nice. I have always been against Android but I find the system more coherent than I expected. The phone itself is fantastic. Just the right size, packing a lot of power and a great camera. All the good reviews are not just BS. :-D

Re: Let me hear if you want this phone!
I would love to have this phone and I do want it really badly, but I want to be able to use it on 3G (or even 4G) on T-Mobile in the US. Even on data roaming on 3G it would be OK.
This also begs the question, ST18a or ST18i?
- ST18a works on AT&T 3G (I think)... which means it should work on T-Mobile data roaming on 3G?
- ST18i might be better for T-Mobile outright, due a better match on frequencies, but then it still might not do 3G.
Answers/thoughts beyond speculation would be ideal before I spend 400 US bucks.Last edited by o.n.i.x; 11-11-2011 at 10:44 AM. Reason: Formatting
Re: Let me hear if you want this phone!
I've owned it for 3 weeks.
What I like the most is the general design and size (it's really thin) for such a powerful toy.
What I don't like it's that it doesn't feature a dedicated photo button. By the time I take the phone out of my pocket, unlock to camera and locate the screen button to take the shot, it's often too late. - 05-13-2012, 11:43 AM #6
Re: Let me hear if you want this phone!
I've owned the ST18a (Urushi) now for 4 months. Great. Just be careful about dropping it, corners get dented affecting the attachment of the back cover - it's design is awkward. After Sony's OTA update to version A.0.62, I unlocked the bootloader, rooted phone, and installed the latest CyanodenMod 7 ROM. I have lost the FM radio, but no big deal, but I've also been able to remove the Sony OEM branding and apps, and the phone boots up about 2x faster.
Check out these threads, assuming this is of interest:
Follow instructions carefully so you don't brick your awesome phone!

Dawgs move to 2-0September 06, 2013, 11:30 pm by BurnetSports
The Burnet Bulldogs hosted their home opener Friday night welcoming the Rockdale Tigers to town and when it was all said and done the Dawgs moved their season record to 2-0 with a 20-9 win. Burnet scored with 7:22 left in the first on a 32-yard Austin Huff field goal and at the end of the first the scored remained Burnet 3-Rockdale 0. With just 1:34 left in the half Rockdale tied the game with a 35-yard field goal make it 3-3 at the break. On the Dawgs second possession of the third quarter Huff sent up a beauty of a punt which hit the Rockdale return man and Brock Foster quickly pounced on the ball giving Burnet new life at the Tiger 17-yard line. After three plays and an offsides penalty Huff added another 32-yard field goal with 1:51 left in the third quarter to put Burnet on top 6-3. Following a couple of back and forth punts the Bulldogs used some great catches by Cody Jones and Darius Johnson to push the ball deep into Rockdale territory. On first and goal from the 2-yard line the Dawgs went to their power package and a direct snap to Trenton Hafley resulted in the games first touchdown. Huff tacked on the PAT and with 8:46 remaining the Dawgs had a 13-3 lead. Jeremy Ayers helped lead Burnets next defensive stop and in just four short plays team green once again had control of the ball. Derek Kiser completed pass to Hafley and Foster before Hafley took the honors from 2-yards out. Huff split the poles for the point after giving Burnet a 20-3 lead with just 3:37 to play. The Tigers added a touchdown of their own on a quarterback sneak with just 1:15 left on the clock. Ayer dashed into the backfield on the PAT attempt and blocked the kick which brought the final score to 20-9 in the Bulldogs favor. Burnet who is currently 2-0 will host the Marble Falls Mustangs who moved to 1-1 after defeating Smithville on Friday night. Its sure to be a packed house so get there early. Kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m. For more on the Burnet win over Rockdale as well as complete game stats pick-up Wednesdays edition of the Burnet Bulletin. Reader CommentsThe bulldogs look great. I don't understand why their second string defense and offence is the one with sacks and speedy runs and are the units used on goal line and late in the game. It seems they would be used to avoid emergency use. Brock is clearly a top notch runner and Austin Cox is a BEAST. |

The tweet landed Wednesday night, about an hour after the Celtics-Knicks playoff game had tipped off in New York.
"Here's how it really goes," it began. "Don't let us win 2nite cuz if we do we got Pedro GM5 Schilling GM6 and anything can happen GM7" #2004 #Celtics?"
The author was Kevin Millar, the former Red Sox infielder who prophetically called for the Sox to rebound from a 3-0 series deficit in the 2004 American League Championship Series against the New York Yankees. Which they did.
And after the Celtics won their second straight game in their first-round playoff series against the Knicks, they moved to within two wins of repeating what their baseball brethren did.
Game 6 is Friday at TD Garden. The Celtics trail the series 3-2. No NBA team has overcome a 3-0 series deficit. Full story for BostonGlobe.com subscribers.

Video Vault:
1) Kelly Dwyer of Ball Don't Lie wonders if Dwight Howard realizes that centers just do not sell in the NBA and his ideas of becoming an international star, even in Brooklyn, might just be a pipe dream.
2) Jameer Nelson is expected to play tonight after missing last Thursday's game against Atlanta, Josh Robbins of the Orlando Sentinel reports. The Magic, themselves, will be looking to get back on the winning track.
3) The biggest challenge for the second half of the season is facing the distraction of Dwight Howard... again, Josh Robbins of the Orlando Sentinel writes. At least the team is confident that it can reach its potential as Ryan Anderson and Dwight Howard noted during All-Star Weekend.
4) Bill Ingram of HoopsWorld wonders if the Magic could assemble their own super team if Dwight Howard declines his early termination option.
5) Rany Wittman's surprise benching of several key players sent an important message to his struggling team, Michael Lee of The Washington Post writes. Still last night ended with a tough loss to Milwaukee. Seems like the team responded.
6) The guys over at MagicBasketball.net got together to discuss Dwight Howard's future with the Magic and his legacy with the franchise.
7) Golden State still wants in on the Dwight Howard fun and they might even help facilitate a Howard trade to New Jersey (h/t Evan Dunlap of Orlando Pinstriped Post). Zach Lowe of The Point Forward writes the gambit is worth it for Golden State.
8) The Lakers know that Dwight Howard will not sign an extension, but John Ireland of ESPN.com reports that this is not deterring the Lakers (h/t Kurt Helin of Pro Basketball Talk).
9) Zach Lowe of the Point Forward breaks down why it is unlikely Dallas could net both Deron Williams and Dwight Howard by showing how they might be able to do it (h/t Kurt Helin of Pro Basketball Talk)
10) The Magic expect the Wizards to push the ball up the floor constantly tonight, Josh Robbins of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
11) Who is ready for "El Magic?"

BP Comment Quick Links
June 13, 2013 Skewed LeftBayes and the Hit By PitchWhen home plate umpire Clint Fagan made the decision not to eject Zack Greinke for hitting Miguel Montero with a pitch, and a subsequent decision to eject Ian Kennedy for hitting Greinke with a pitch, he was answering a couple of probability questions that umpires and eventually Major League Baseball will have to face. It's not a question of whether the hit by pitch was intentional or not. You're never able to answer that question. The probability that the act was intentional from the point of view of the umpire/disciplinarian is never 0, even on the most innocuous-looking play, and it's pretty much never unless Cole Hamels is just begging for a suspension. After a beaning occurs, an umpire and then the MLB office are forced then to determine how likely it was that tat beaning was intentional. And there is where they have run into trouble historically. It is my view that the umpires tend to be too beholden to their own warnings and may even be trying to legislate to some unwritten rules. The second belief we'll get to later, but as to the first, remember, it is perfectly within an umpire's rights to eject a player with no warning. In fact, the previous pitcher tossed for a hit batsman, Jason Hammel, was ejected with no warning in the episode I documented semi-seriously here. Inversely, just because there has been a warning doesn't mean there has to be an ejection. In fact, the inning after the brawl on Tuesday night, Mark Ellis was hit by a pitch with no consequence. The ejection, surprisingly, did not follow the beaning after and immediately after the warning. But at what point in this dance do you think the plunkings escalated to the point of ejection? Top 5: Cody Ross hit by a pitch

COA & TT Club convene industry forum to resolve exploding reefer issue
Friday, 23 December 2011 | 00:00
The Container Owners Association (COA) and the TT Club bring together practitioners and experts to debate ways to resolve the exploding reefer machinery issue following the introduction of counterfeit gas into the supply chain.
Key points include:
• Growing convergence towards a standardised test for gas bottles to prevent recurrence;
• Update on progress towards safe and certain testing of potentially contaminated reefer containers;
• Willingness to continue collaborating on these issues to restore safety and confidence through the transport industry.
Full Story
Not for the first time in 2011, interested parties in the liner shipping industry have met to seek resolution of safety issues. This time, the subject matter was the problem with reefer containers arising from contaminated refrigerant. This has caused explosion and fire in refrigeration machinery of some containers during the course of 2011. While only a very small number of incidents have occurred, thousands of reefers have been quarantined pending confirmation that they are unaffected by contaminated refrigerant.
A forum took place in London on 19 December 2011, under the neutral auspices of the Container Owners Association (COA) to review the findings to-date and to consider solutions. The gathering, comprised representatives from a number of the world's leading container carriers, container leasing companies, reefer service depots and reefer machinery manufacturers. In addition, a leading refrigerant manufacturer, being amongst those whose products have been counterfeited, was represented, together with forensic, refrigeration and machinery experts. The event was hosted by the TT Club, which insures approaching 80% of the global maritime container fleet.
Building on the response to the session at COA Members meeting in Hamburg on 28 November, this forum was initiated jointly by COA and the TT Club to bring together those most closely involved in order to identify common action steps to eradicate the problem. Specifically, the forum was intended to share information and assist in:
• protecting the safety of reefer service personnel, and others, involved in working with refrigerated containers in depots, in terminals, on vessels and on road vehicles;
• achieving safe and certain identification of contaminated refrigerant supply, and improving global maintenance and repair processes to prevent recurrence; and
• achieving safe and certain identification of unaffected units in order to return them to service.
The meeting proved extremely valuable in all these respects, although it was not conclusive. Participants intend to continue to interact on these safety issues and the COA is looking into effective ways to disseminate information through the container transport industry. It was recognised that the precise chemical reactions causing the explosion risk remain uncertain, although the experts - some of whom have been investigating similar issues in other industries - are broadly in agreement in terms of the essential cause and the risks involved.
It is fully clear that counterfeit gases have entered the disposable gas bottle supply chain. These gases have been created to mimic the thermodynamic properties of R134a (the most usual refrigerant in the container industry), using chlorine based gas. The introduction of contaminates has been found to be as much as 50% of the volume. This cocktail reacts with the aluminium parts of the reefer machinery, as well as lubricants, to create the dangers encountered.
Gas supply
Hearing from the experts and practitioners most actively involved in recent months, there is growing consensus concerning how to protect the industry in the future. While gas suppliers clearly intend to continue taking measures to limit the activity of counterfeiters, the reefer container industry is working towards a standardised test procedure to ensure that gas bottles in use at repair and service facilities, and on board ships are safely tested. One option is to use the simple and established halide flame test, with appropriate precautions to ensure that the minimum of gas is released and toxic fumes are removed. The occurrence of a green flame is a straight forward identifier of chlorine in the sample. This type of documented testing prior to use of gas in repair and maintenance activities is likely to become standard practice through the industry in due course.
Further work is being undertaken to ensure that potentially contaminated reefer containers can be tested effectively and safely. No single test methodology has been proven as yet, in part because all the container units subject to trials have turned out not to be contaminated – although itself positive in returning quarantined units to trade. Once this has been resolved, it is anticipated that testing will become a standard part of the Pre-Trip Inspection routine.
Participants at the forum were keen to continue to work on the issues identified and achieve convergence of practices to strengthen the safety regime. The forum can be judged a considerable success and has laid the foundation to establish sound and sustainable practices that should insulate the reefer container industry from recurrence.
