Greensburg —
One of the most pleasant memories I have as a boy growing up during the 1950's in Indiana were those in which my dad and I hunted squirrels in the fall.
He knew where all the den trees were. He also knew where the wild paw paw trees were. Some folks call paw paws "Indiana Bananas."
Paw paws ripen in early-to-mid September, about the same time squirrel season comes in, but they're only good to eat for a relatively short period of time. Dad liked to pick paw paws straight off the tree. If they were out of reach, he would stand under the tree and knock them down with a long stick. I've never seen paw paws in stores, but from time-to-time, they are available in "farmer's markets."
Explorers and early settlers were all very familiar with wild paw paws. Archaeologists have long known that Native Americans were cultivating the fruit east of the Mississippi nearly 500 years, and possibly earlier.
Our first and third Presidents (George Washington and Thomas Jefferson, respectively) also enjoyed the taste of paw paws.
Paw paws were among the many exotic plants Jefferson cultivated at Monticello, his mountaintop plantation in Virginia.
Dad and I arrived in the woods just as the sun was coming up one morning, and parked our old Chevy in the Mount Zion church parking lot in rural Montgomery County.
Dad's mom and dad, who died before I was born, had been faithful members of the church for several decades.
About halfway across the graveyard next to the church, Dad stopped beside one of the graves. "That's old man Brock's grave," he said, pointing to a small, moss-covered stone marker. "He's been gone some time now. He was 104 when he went to meet his maker. They say he was up in a cherry tree with a bucket a couple of days before he died."
"Over there," Dad said, pointing to an old stone marker that had been broken and propped up with a big rock, "is the oldest grave here. It belongs to a soldier who fought in the Revolutionary War."
At the edge of the graveyard, we stopped while Dad lit his pipe and tamped it down. After a minute or two, we climbed a rickety boundary fence at the edge of the graveyard and made our way as quietly as we could down a hill, careful not to step on a dry twig that would give us away. We sat down under a big ash tree near an old den tree.
Before long, Dad cupped his hand to his ear and nodded. A fox squirrel was busy gnawing acorns somewhere near the top of an old oak tree. We sat quietly as bits of shell rained down through the leaves.
After a few minutes, Dad whispered for me to stay put while he circled around the tree. When the squirrel heard Dad, it stopped gnawing, then it came around to my side of the tree. Dad looked at me and nodded. I raised my single-shot Iver Johnson, clicked back the hammer and squeezed the trigger Ñ and then... nothing!
My heart sank. I had forgotten to put a shell in my gun. I felt like crawling under a leaf, but Dad just grinned, shook his head and motioned for me to follow him. I knew where he was headed when he pulled out an onion sack from his bib overalls. "If Preacher John's old Jersey bull isn't around, we can pick us a sack full of paw paws to go with that squirrel we almost had," he chuckled.
Jersey bulls are a relatively small breed and are often bad-tempered. "The paw paws should be just right about now."
Preacher John and Dad had grown up together, attended the same one-room school house, hunted and fished together, and at one time, Dad said, they were both "sweet on the same girl."
As we made our way toward the paw paw patch, I recalled a story Dad told me once about Preacher John and him.
Preacher John was plowing one morning when Dad stopped to tell him it was his birthday.
"Good morning, John," Dad said. "Today is my birthday. I'm 21-years-old today and the best man in Montgomery County."
John couldn't let that pass.
He dropped his plow, pitched his straw hat to one side and said, "Well, climb over the fence and we'll see about that."
Dad never did tell me who won, but he did say they tore up half an acre of corn wrestling around!
Luckily, we filled our sack with nice, ripe paw paws before Preacher John's bull saw us. Dad kept his eye on the bull, and when it started to paw the ground, we high-tailed it for home.
Paw paws make great tasting cakes, pies and even ice cream.
However, paw paws are quite perishable and they get kind of squishy if left un-refrigerated for longer than a couple days. Many folks find that paw paws have a tropical-like, fruity taste. Some say they taste like banana cream pie. Researchers have also found that paw paws are higher in antioxidants and Vitamin C than apples, peaches and grapes.

Eliminating Tax Evasion Is Core Piece of G8 Ten-Point Plan
by Terri Eyden on printer friendly
By Jason Bramwell
Government leaders of eight of the world's largest economies pledged on June 18 to take a tougher stance on fighting tax evasion.
The Group of Eight (G8) leaders, who met in Northern Ireland, developed a ten-point plan, the Lough Erne Declaration, which calls for more information sharing between tax authorities and improved transparency to prevent tax avoidance. It also includes elements that promote open trade between countries and cut wasteful bureaucracy.
The declaration states, "Governments have a special responsibility to make proper rules and promote good governance. Fair taxes, increased transparency, and open trade are vital drivers of this."
The ten elements of the plan include:
- Tax authorities across the world should automatically share information to fight the scourge of tax evasion.
- Countries should change rules that let companies shift their profits across borders to avoid taxes, and multinationals should report to tax authorities what tax they pay where.
- Companies should know who really owns them, and tax collectors and law enforcers should be able to obtain this information easily.
- Developing countries should have the information and capacity to collect the taxes owed them – and other countries have a duty to help them.
- Extractive companies should report payments to all governments – and governments should publish income from such companies.
- Minerals should be sourced legitimately, not plundered from conflict zones.
- Land transactions should be transparent, respecting the property rights of local communities.
- Governments should roll back protectionism and agree [to] new trade deals that boost jobs and growth worldwide.
- Governments should cut wasteful bureaucracy at borders and make it easier and quicker to move goods between developing countries.
- Governments should publish information on laws, budgets, spending, national statistics, elections, and government contracts in a way that is easy to read and re-use so that citizens can hold them to account.
OECD Report to G8 Leaders
The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), which works with governments to promote policies that will improve the economic and social well-being of people around the world, recently presented to G8 leaders a report that includes four key steps needed to create a fairer and more transparent global tax system.
The report, A Step Change in Tax Transparency, which was prepared at the request of the G8 Summit in Lough Erne, Northern Ireland, puts in place a global, secure, and cost-effective model of automatic exchange of tax information.
The report follows the Group of Twenty (G20) Finance Minister's endorsement this past April of the automatic exchange of information for tax purposes as the expected new standard. It states, because tax evasion is a global issue, the model needs to have worldwide reach to avoid merely relocating the problem elsewhere. The process also needs to be standardized to minimize costs for businesses and governments and to improve effectiveness.
The four steps needed to create a fairer and more transparent global tax system include:
- Enacting broad framework legislation to facilitate the expansion of a country's network of partner jurisdictions.
- Selecting the legal basis for the exchange of information.
- Adapting the scope of reporting and due diligence requirements and coordinating guidance.
- Developing common or compatible IT standards.
The report also provides potential time frames for each step and notes that much of this work is already underway at the OECD. It also stresses that more jurisdictions are joining the Convention on Mutual Administrative Assistance in Tax Matters, which provides a legal basis for automatic exchange of information and underlines the role of the OECD's Global Forum on Transparency and Exchange of Information for Tax Purposes. The forum has been mandated by the G20 to monitor implementation of the new standard.
"I congratulate the G8 for putting its full force behind international efforts to bolster sustainable growth through global solutions for tax evasion and avoidance," Angel Gurría, secretary general of the OECD, said in a written statement before the G8 leaders met on June 18. "Tax systems must be fair and be seen to be fair. The OECD is helping countries work together to put an end to offshore tax evasion by delivering a secure and cost-effective system of a single global standard for automatic exchange of information."

Atletico Madrid v Chelsea team news: Jose Mourinho makes six changes as Ashley Cole starts
Published: 22 April 2014

Ashley Cole started at left-back in a Chelsea side showing six changes for the Champions League semi-final first leg at Atletico Madrid.
Cole has played only 13 minutes since January for the Blues, but came into the side due to the suspension of Branislav Ivanovic, which saw Cesar Azpilicueta switched to right-back.

Lots of woodsy berry flavors in this! This is no easy-drinking winter warmer, and I like it that way! Forces you to come to terms with juniper, clove, molasses, pine, roots, twigs, and branches in the flavor! Definitely complex and unique. Would complement an apple pie or something like that.

Think Chimay Blue, but a little lighter and a little more caramel. Very pleasant. Very drinkable. Makes me want to eat a roast beast.
Thin head that deteriorates at a decent rate. Solid mouth feel. Dark appearance.
Malt, chocolate, dark fruits, caramel. Emphasis on the last two.
Very good seasonal ale with a lot of great pairing opportunities.

12oz bottle poured into a Libby globe porter/stout glass. Date stamp of bottling: 3OX (2013 October 24).
Appearance: Dark brown, clear cola brown at the edges. Very thin foam across the top with persistent sheets and strands of lacing.
Smell: Christmas spice smells - nutmeg, cinnamon, allspice, hint of some charred malt as well.
Taste: Lots of holiday spices (nutmeg, cinnamon, plus a hint of anise) plus a roasted malt sweetness. Finish is mildly bitter, some very mild leafy hop notes at the end.
Mouthfeel: Good carbonation, slick, little bit spicy on the tongue, little bit sticky on the teeth.
Overall / Drinkability: This may be one of the better Christmas Ales I've had from Anchor in regard to flavor and aroma. Lots of spicy flavors and aromas, and very very drinkable. I could easily have another bottle, but for some reason I feel I have to let this beer last the month like it's a special treat. Well, I suppose it is a treat since it only comes out once a year, isn't it? Well done!

Serving glass: Poured from bottle into Nonic Imperial Pint.
Appearance: Dark brownish-ruby with creamy tan head that mostly recedes with slight lacing lines.
Smell: Faintly sweet spices of allspice, clove and ginger. Nice chocolate and caramel undertones with a mild roastiness.
Taste: Bittersweet roasted malts with light notes of chocolate and caramel. The spices counterbalance the Porter-like base nicely, and include gingerbread, allspice, clove. A hint of a sour finish.
Feel: Moderate carbonation, medium body, somewhat dry finish.
Overall: Much better than last year, but not as good as 07 and 09, which remain my favorites.

12oz bottle into snifter.
A: Pours a deep cola brown with a huge, dense, and fluffy looking light brown head that took forever to fade into a thin collar that left sticky patches of lace down the glass.
S: Very inviting notes of forest spices, holiday baking spices, and fruity hops and yeast. The nose is complex and it's hard to nail any one scent down, but I get notes of cardamom, peach, mint, wood, forest floor dirt, clove, cookie dough, brown sugar, nutmeg, and antique shop.
T: Follows the nose with complex flavors of spice rack mixed with dough and forest. Bitter citrus pith, spearmint, tropical hops, and a touch of powdery chocolate come through as well. The finish is full of green leafy spices, and the aftertaste reminds me of a dark Belgian ale except more bitter. Reminds me of mint chewing gum at times.
M: Medium body, smooth and drinkable mouthfeel with a good dose of bitterness to it. The carbonation is frothy but soft and splashy.
O: Hoppier than I remember in years past with a good dose of bitterness and complex spice flavor. Very delicious, as usual.

12 oz bottle poured into tulip glass.
A - Pours a dark brown with a reddish tint. One and a half fingers of light brown head.
S - Cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, caramel, and toast are all apparent in the aroma. A bit of sweetness along with the spice.
T - I get a lot of the holiday spices: cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, with pine / spruce, caramel, toasted malt, earthiness, and a hint of chocolate. I can definitely see how this is a Christmas ale. Great amount of complexity yet it remains balanced between sweetness and spices.
M - Thin-to-moderate body with moderate carbonation. It feels a bit sticky at times, but is not as thick as I would have hoped. Nice earthy aftertaste.
O - I was pleasantly surprised at this one, not knowing what to expect as this is my first one. Has a great complexity and range of flavors with the spices, sweetness, and earthy tree notes. I will be looking forward to future vintages of this.

Smells of a bit of roasted malt with some spices.
Taste- Very nice spice backbone, and slight ginger, and some hop bitterness. Slight chocolate notes. I liked this years version. The flavors played well with each other.
A fan of this from start to finish.

A standard pour of Anchor's "Our Special Ale, 2013" yields a dark brown body that lets through just enough light to reveal ruby highlights when held up to strong light. The pour also yields a respectable tan head that falls slowly and leaves behind some sticky froth atop the brew. Carbonation is gentle. I expect a gentle mouthfeel.
The nose comprises a mix of familiar roasted aromas and seasonal spices. Molasses, raisins, and nutmeg, and a splash of port wine are easily appreciable.
The taste follows the nose before moving well beyond it. Molasses, prunes, raisins, and nutmeg are out front. Bitter spices dominate the middle. I pick up, in addition to nutmeg, touches of cinnamon, clove, and allspice. Roasted nuts appear on the back end. Port wine's sweet and alcoholic flavors develop during the hang. Hoppy flavors aren't clearly palpable, but I suspect that some of the spice flavors owe themselves to well-balanced hopping. A warm mixture of raisins molasses-coated toasted almonds seasoned with holiday spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, clove), enjoyed while sipping sweet port. Yes, that's what this beer tastes like.
"Our Special Ale, 2013" is an outstanding winter warmer. The flavors are clear and delicious. The profile is complex and layered. This may be the best warmer I've had to date.

A winter staple - I could never pick one vintage apart from the rest as they always seem to taste identical to me. It's always been very pine forward - like you were ingesting a liquefied version of your x-mess tree. Gingerbread, spruce, a touch of cinnamon. I always have room for 1 or 2 of these suckers a year.

12 oz bottle poured into a snifter.
A - Dark chocolate brown with ruby highlights, the 2013 vintage of Our Special Ale is almost black looking and crowned with an off-white head that dots the snifter in lacing as it subsides.
S - Deep toasted malt pulls through the woody, pine-like aroma of Our Special Ale, introducing rich complexities of raisin and plum into the beer. Hints of ground nutmeg and ginger add a subtle spice to the beer while a swirl releases brown sugar and caramel sweetness for a lingering complexity.
T - Substantially more shallow in flavor, Our Special Ale has a somewhat thin malt base consisting of toast and hints of roast which work well with the beer's overall earthy profile, sprinkled with spice but, sweetness is strangely absent as are the fruit complexities.
M - With a medium-light body this Winter Warmer has a smooth, easier drinking flavor profile than that of some of the more robust, truly warming winter beers but, that doesn't stop it's earthiness and delicately lingering spice from completing the seasonal beer.
O - Despite the recipe changing from year to year, Anchor's Our Special Ale always seems to remain familiar; robust earthy, pine-like aromas and malty, toasted flavor with a sprinkle of holiday spice. This year has a fantastic and complex, welcoming aroma that unfortunately dies off slightly in flavor but the smooth body allows the beer to finish out nicely for a winter treat.

A: Pours a deep brown color with ruby hues when held to light. A tightly laced sand colored foam head stays at about half a finger.
S: Has a great blend of baking spices mixed with some bready malt and some dark fruit notes. Cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, banana bread, cola, light chocolate. Digging it.
T: Bready with some spices poking through. Some molasses, dark bread, cinnamon and a rich nuttiness throughout. Mouthfeel is a touch thin, but this is really good. I'm liking this a lot more than last year's.

Always good to see this release on the shelves around here. I wasn't too happy with last year's version of this beer, but I still wanted to give this a review and see if anything improved. Poured out of a 12oz bottle into a tulip glass.
Very dark in appearance - blackened with some slight plum or reddish hues that streak the sides of the glass when held against the light. There was a phenomenal amount of off-khaki colored foam, which almost overflowed over the glass at about 5 fingers high. Looks a lot like cherry cola from a afar, and while it leaves a bit of lacing as it goes down. I owe this more from the aggressive pour rather than the quality of the beer itself, but it still presents itself nicely as any Noël ale should.
The aroma is as good as always - mulled spices with dark fruit and baking spice notes. There's a lot of dark cherry pits and plums at the nose, which meld with the spices that range from sweet to spicy. Cherries and cranberries meld with clove, nutmeg, allspice, cloves, and a bit of rosemary. There's a ginger backbone to this that is undeniable and the molasses and caramel make up a good deal of the malt profile as a whole. The pine/anise flavor that comes in is a bit distracting from the nice array of spices, bread, and dried red and dark fruits, but overall it's good. Nice and sweet, with spicy notes that keep it interesting.
If memory serves me right, this is a far better batch this year - less of the burnt, overly malty notes of the '12 offering, and larger emphasis on the spices, molasses, and cranberry notes. This really IS Christmas in a bottle. Notes of pine, ginger, and orange peel immediately hit the tongue, followed by molasses, cranberries, black cherries, and blackcurrant. Slightly tart and and under ripe, with cloves, nutmeg, allspice, cardamom, baking soda, cinnamon, and burnt salted caramel following right afterwards. The burnt note is subtle this time around, and the cinnamon gets progressively stronger with each sip. The cherry/plum combo is really fabulous here, and this reminds me so much of a nicely spiced fruitcake as it warms up, which is different from its gingerbread cookie profile in its early stages. Just like mulled wine, this continues to change over time, and it never gets truly cloying - thick, well carbonated, and bready, rather than syrupy. The bitterness really keeps this refreshing and cleanses the palate for another sip. Good stuff.
Much happier with this batch, but perhaps my taste buds towards these seasonal spiced beers have changed? Nevertheless, I'll gladly pick up a magnum for when the family comes in town. This is balances the spices (which are excessive, to be honest) with some really nice dried fruit notes that make this a good one to drink. It's pretty heavy even at 12oz, but I'm glad I'm enjoying it more than I expected to. Happy holidays!

Will Thomas
My Father Died
In the middle of the summer,
when I was twenty-two
and wore sneakers with no socks
and was growing my first beard,
my father died.
In the middle of the summer,
when my son was one years old
and lay in his playpen
in the hardscrabble grass of the backyard,
making living sounds
and grabbing for fistfuls of air,
my father died.
In the middle of the summer,
days before somebody walked on the moon,
days after the bright-colored beginnings
of my daughter's life,
my father died.
In the middle of the summer,
when, as a father,
I first sat out on the porch past midnight
listening to the haunting, faraway comfort
of late-night, west coast ball games,
and the tender wisps of breathing of my own two babes,
in the middle of the summer
when I first had trouble sleeping,
and before we had the luxury to know
each others' hurts and hollows,
hopes and heartaches,
in the summer of 1969
(several sad and sorry seasons
beyond the end of his living) ,
my father died.
As did,
as did a part of his boy.

'Several sad and sorry seasons' was a very nice working of words.This poem is so sad and a nice living tribute for a very well missed father in a son's life.
Life cannot exhist, but with death.Death cannot exhist, but with a given up of life.
Memories are what we have of that is left, which in turn will reunite us with loved
ones in death. God Bless All. An excellent poem. Best regards-Mike Gale. (Report) Reply

In the West, mostly dry weather accompanies near- to below-normal temperatures. Freeze warnings are in effect early today in a few areas, including east-central Utah and northwestern California. Fall fieldwork, including cotton harvesting in Arizona and California, remains active.
On the Plains, rain is returning to portions of central and northeastern Texas. Elsewhere, dry weather favors late-season winter wheat planting and harvest activities for a variety of summer crops. However, colder air is overspreading the northern and central Plains in the wake of a cold front's passage.
In the Corn Belt, mostly dry weather favors corn and late-season soybean harvest activities, despite an increase in cloudiness. A few rain showers are developing, however, mainly in parts of Iowa and Missouri.
In the South, isolated showers are developing across the northwestern fringe of the region, including the Ozark Plateau. Elsewhere, dry weather is promoting autumn fieldwork, including winter wheat planting and cotton, peanut, and soybean harvesting.
Outlook: For the second time in a week, a moisture-laden cold front will cross the central and eastern U.S. This time, the front will be imbued with remnant moisture from former eastern Pacific Tropical Storm Sonia. Rainfall associated with the front should reach 1 to 3 inches, with locally higher amounts, from the eastern Plains to the western slopes of the Appalachians. Lighter amounts of precipitation can be expected across southern portions of the Rockies and High Plains. Farther north, snow will develop later today across the central Rockies. Heavy snow can be expected on Tuesday in Nebraska and environs, and at mid-week in portions of the upper Great Lakes region. Elsewhere, periods of showery weather will affect the northern Rockies and Pacific Northwest, while dry weather will prevail in California and the Great Basin. The NWS 6- to 10-day outlook for November 9-13 calls for near- to above-normal temperatures nationwide, except for cooler-than-normal conditions in the northern Rockies and Pacific Coast States. Meanwhile, below-normal precipitation across the majority of the U.S. will contrast with wetter-than-normal weather across Florida's peninsula, northern and central portions of California and the Great Basin, and along nation's northern tier from Washington to Wisconsin.
Weather report: Mostly dry across Plains, Corn Belt
In the West, mostly dry weather accompanies near- to below-normal temperatures. Freeze warnings are in effect early today in a few areas, including east-central Utah and northwestern California. Fall fieldwork, including cotton harvesting in Arizona and California, remains active.

Want a tax break in Colorado for not buying health insurance? Think again
Send this story to a friend
- Ed Sealover
- Reporter- Denver Business Journal
- Email | Facebook | Twitter | Capitol Business blog
Without a single witness to champion it, a bill to give a tax credit to Coloradans who refuse to buy health insurance under the requirements of the Affordable Care Act met its demise Wednesday at the hands of a death panel known as the House State, Veterans and Military Affairs Committee.
Democrats on the committee voted over the objections of Republicans to kill House Bill 1106, sponsored by GOP Reps. Dan Nordberg of Colorado Springs and Jared Wright of Grand Junction, after a short hearing.
The bill would have allowed residents with state income tax liability to deduct the amount of the federal penalty they would have to pay for violating the individual insurance mandate.
Wright and Nordberg said that with 335,500 state residents having their policies canceled and many not being able to afford new policies on the Connect for Health Colorado benefits exchange (priced 20 percent higher than expected), the bill would give a financial break to families that may be struggling.
Those families could still purchase catastrophic insurance that doesn't count as a minimum plan under the federal law, they said.
"It's not debatable that the ACA is hurting families and individuals across the state as it is being implemented," Wright said. "This bill protects individuals who either can not afford insurance or who choose not to purchase insurance based on their own unique reasons."
But two health-care advocates fought Wright's claim that the law is hurting Coloradans.
Matthew Valeta, a health policy analyst for the Colorado Consumer Health Initiative, said that people who qualify for insurance subsidies on the health exchange are getting average subsidies of $248 a year.

We Talk About Responsibility
MS: OK, Gary. Here's one... Responsibility. What do we each actually have responsibility for?
GC: I believe I'm not responsible for answering that question for you. I'm only responsible for answering that question for me. I think I'm responsible for nurturing and cherishing my relationship with Christ. And if I really do that, so many of the other responsibilities that are laid out in front of me, that could be pointed at and declared mine, are covered. I do think that I am more accountable, maybe not responsible, but I do believe that if you are a public figure you should be more accountable. Because what you do impacts so many more people. I know not everybody agrees with me on that. But that's the way I feel.

Hornets will charge more to see Heat, Lakers than Grizzlies, Pacers
Aug 18, 2010, 9:10 PM EDT
Variable ticket pricing is coming to a city near you. It will. By the end of this decade it will be thought of as common for every major sports franchise in America.
What is it? Simply put, it will cost more to see in-demand teams like the Lakers or Heat on a weekend night than it will be to see less high profile squads like the Clippers in the middle of the week. Simple supply and demand economics.
The Hornets plans are discussed in the Times-Picayune (via TrueHoop):
Yet-to-be-determined prices will be assigned to games based on value and demand, influenced by factors such as an opponent's quality and the day of the week the game is played. Each game will fall into one of five pricing categories: marquee, premium, classic, value and preseason.
"The concept is recognizing the fact that not all games are created equal," [vice president of marketing Matt] Biggers said. "We play games on all different days of the week, against all different kinds of opponents during different times of the year. There are games where the demand isn't as high as other games.
"For us, it's about pricing more in line with what the demand is. For games that have high demand, we can price those appropriately."
The NFL's San Francisco 49ers have been doing this for a season. And you have been doing this too — through StubHub (and similar companies). Let the market set the price. That is the raw essence of ticket supply and demand, and season ticket holders have turned to StubHub (now with official ties to many teams) to rake it in for years, making a nice profit by selling some premiere game seats.
Now the teams want a piece of that action. Lest you think this wasn't about the money. Because it is always about the money.
You may not like this, but you better get used to it. This kind of ticket pricing is the next wave.

Burnett throws batting practice
By Anna McDonald
BRADENTON, Fla. -- Pirates right-hander
A.J. Burnett
, after having surgery on his fractured right orbital bone on March 2, threw for the first time on Saturday.
A.J. Burnett suffered a fractured orbital bone Feb. 29 when he fouled a ball off his right eye during a bunting drill.
"I thought it was a good day for A.J. [Burnett]," manager Clint Hurdle said of Burnett's 40-pitch batting practice session. "He was able to hold his back side and work downhill on the mound, [he] threw all his pitches. So, it was the next step."
Burnett said he was ready to throw and was really looking forward to playing. There is no doubt Burnett is comfortable in his new home with the Pirates; most of his teammates clapped when he walked off theĀfield after throwing.
"They were happy to see me out there as much as I was happy to be out there," Burnett said of the support he received.
"I opened some eyes today," said Burnett. "Hopefully they'll see if I was a little more ready than they thought, but we're going to be smart about it either way. It was a good step in the right direction."

First Potomac leverages local knowledge in Hanover warehouse purchase
- Robert Celaschi, Contributor
Description: In the final week of 2010, First Potomac Realty Trust paid $22.6 million for a 295,673-square-foot warehouse in Hanover, about a half-mile west of Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport.
The original 184,862-square-foot building at 7458 Candlewood Road was built in 1985 by Mercedes-Benz and expanded by 110,811 square feet in 2009.
The acquisition was financed through the assumption of a $14.7 million first mortgage loan and a draw on First Potomac's own revolving credit.
Challenges overcome: First Potomac signed a 5-year, 21,000-square-foot lease with J.B. Hunt, a transportation logistics company, to fill the building. But in January, Frank Parsons Paper, whose headquarters fills nearly three-quarters of the building, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. First Potomac has been working with Frank Parsons to reduce the amount of space it occupies and said it had identified tenants to potentially backfill a portion of the space.
"Given the quality of the asset and our basis in the property, we are confident we will be able to re-tenant any space that we get back from the lead tenant and generate attractive returns for our shareholders," said First Potomac Realty Trust CEO Douglas Donatelli.
First Potomac has historically been able to retain about 77 percent of tenants with expiring leases, or about 13 points higher than the national average of 64 percent, according to an analysis by Robert W. Baird & Co. Inc.
Impact: At $76.44 a square foot, First Potomac got a good price, said Jim Leanos, vice president at Manekin LLC, a commercial real estate firm in Columbia.

Joe Biden Competes on 'Are You a Better Bush-Blamer Than a 5th Grader?'
**Written by Doug Powers
Vice President Joe Biden spent some time in Florida talking to a class of 5th graders about the economy and his favorite three-letter word, jobs. In his discussion about the troubled economy, do you think Biden was forced to admit to the kids that the stimulus was a waste of a huge amount of money, "we have to spend money to keep from going bankrupt" is a ridiculous theory, "green jobs" is a disaster, and that trillions have been charged to their generation and beyond on the Sheriff's watch alone?
Nah, he just blamed Bush:
"Because things got really bad before we came into office and an awful lot of companies said 'there's no more jobs for you here.'"
Is that the same Biden who just last week took ownership of the economy on behalf of the administration? Maybe he got a talking to (and if so he might get another one for this):

Wrigley takes new caffeinated gum off market
A Food and Drug Administration investigation into the safety of caffeine-added foods has prompted Wrigley to take its new caffeinated gum off the market for the time being.
Associated Press
A Food and Drug Administration investigation into the safety of caffeine-added foods has prompted Wrigley to take its new caffeinated gum off the market for the time being.
Wrigley said Wednesday that it will temporarily halt sales and marketing of Alert caffeinated gum after discussions with the FDA. President Casey Keller said the company made the move "out of respect" for the agency, which said it would investigate the health effects of added caffeine on children and adolescents just as Wrigley rolled out Alert late last month. A stick of the gum has an amount of caffeine equivalent to half a cup of coffee.
"After discussions with the FDA, we have a greater appreciation for its concern about the proliferation of caffeine in the nation's food supply," Keller said in a statement to The Associated Press. "There is a need for changes in the regulatory framework to better guide the consumers and the industry about the appropriate level and use of caffeinated products."
Keller said the company has paused production and sales of the gum to give the agency time to regulate the caffeine-added products.
Michael Taylor, the FDA's deputy commissioner of foods, said Wrigley's decision to stop production for now "demonstrates real leadership and commitment to the public health."
"We hope others in the food industry will exercise similar restraint," Taylor said.
Food manufacturers have added caffeine to candy, nuts and other snack foods in recent years. Jelly Belly "Extreme Sport Beans," for example, have 50 milligrams of caffeine in each 100-calorie pack, while Arma Energy Snx markets trail mix, chips and other products that have caffeine.
The companies say they are marketing the products to adults, but critics say that's not enough when the caffeine is added to items like candy that are attractive to children. Many of the energy foods are promoted with social media campaigns, another way they could be targeted to young people.
Major medical associations have warned that too much caffeine can be dangerous for children, who have less ability to process the stimulant than adults. The American Academy of Pediatrics says it has been linked to harmful effects on young people's developing neurologic and cardiovascular systems.
Taylor said last week that the proliferation of new foods with caffeine added - especially the gum, which he equated to "four cups of coffee in your pocket" - may even prompt the FDA to look closer at the way all food ingredients are regulated. The agency is already investigating the safety of energy drinks and energy shots, prompted by consumer reports of illness and death.
The only time FDA has explicitly approved the added use of caffeine in a food or drink was in the 1950s for colas. Taylor said the current proliferation of caffeine added to foods is "beyond anything FDA envisioned."
The FDA said it would look at the potential impact these new and easy sources of caffeine will have on children's health and take action if necessary. Taylor said he and other FDA officials have held meetings with some of the large food companies that have ventured into caffeinated products, including Mars Inc., Wrigley's parent company.

Patched-up Leeds lose world title
Leeds 20 Manly 28
Monday 02 March 2009
Leeds relinquished their crown as the best club team in the world reluctantly, beaten by an exceptional Manly side that established its superiority with three tries in seven minutes after half-time.
Brett Stewart and Anthony Watmough were the heroes with two tries apiece, but the Australian champions always looked more convincing as a unit than the brave but patched-up Rhinos. Three late tries made it look respectable for the home side, but the reality was that they were second-best on the night.
"I though it was a pretty comprehensive display," said the Manly coach, Des Hasler. "The scoreboard didn't really indicate the way it was. We were in control for most of the time.
Leeds included their England scrum-half, Rob Burrow, for his first competitive match of the year, after weeks nursing a back injury. Burrow shirked nothing while he was on the field, but he was only destined to last 15 minutes before being flattened by a borderline tackle from Watmough and helped from the field.
Soon to follow him was Jamie Peacock, who came away from a play-the-ball swinging punches at his opposite number, Josh Perry. The fracas involved most of the 26 players and saw both the main protagonists sent to the sin-bin. Leeds were by far the worse affected. The penalty went to Manly and Stewart got over the try-line from dummy half.
On the half hour, Watmough hit a Matt Orford short pass with one of his trademark angled runs and the Sea Eagles had a second try, with Orford adding his second conversion. It could have already been hopeless for Leeds if Stewart had not fumbled after Watmough had made another clean break.
Leeds capitalised on that mistake before half-time, Danny McGuire attacking the Manly line when they failed to deal with a Kevin Sinfield kick. Although he was wrapped up in Orford's tackle, he had the presence of mind to smuggle the ball back for Jamie Jones-Buchanan to touch down and Leeds were still in the game.
Rhinos' fans were still taking their seats for the second half when the situation on the field changed radically. Within two minutes, Adam Cuthbertson's break and Michael Robinson's kick created a fortunate second try for Stewart when Carl Ablett's attempt to dive on the ball merely served it up for the Manly full-back. A tackle from Ryan Hall prevented him from making it a hat-trick immediately after, but Watmough was lurking to score in any case.
Shane Rodney and Heath L'Estrange then made the running for Steve Matai to touch down and the Sea Eagles were soaring out of sight. It was to Leeds' credit that they still managed to finish so strongly, with Ali Lauitiiti's handling skills creating tries for Keith Senior and Ryan Hall.
A second brawl saw Orford put over a penalty, but the deposed world champions still finished on a high with Senior's break and McGuire's try. They cannot be accused of giving up their title tamely.
Leeds: Smith; Donald, Ablett, Senior, R Hall; McGuire, Burrow; Leuluai, Diskin, Peacock, Jones-Buchanan, Kirke, Sinfield. Substitutes used: Lauitiiti, Bailey, Burgess, Watkins.
Manly: B Stewart; Robertson, Lyon, Matai, Williams; Bailey, Orford; King, Ballin, Perry, Watmough, G Hall, G Stewart. Substitutes used: L'Estrange, Cuthbertson, Rose, Rodney.
Referee: J Robinson (Australia).
