Bloomberg News
Starbucks, the world's largest coffee-shop chain, said fourth-quarter profit rose 34 percent as it attracted U.S. diners with seasonal drinks and new pastries.
Net income in the three months ended Sept. 29 increased to $481.1 million, or 63 a share, from $359 million, or 46 cents, a year earlier, the Seattle-based company said Wednesday in a statement. Analysts estimated 60 cents a share, the average of 27 projections compiled by Bloomberg.
Chief Executive Officer Howard Schultz has been pursuing new avenues of growth, including higher-quality bakery food and tea, as the company opens more stores across the U.S. Restaurants that cater to higher-income consumers, such as Starbucks and Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc., are outperforming McDonald's Corp. and other less-expensive fast-food joints.
Sales at Starbucks stores open at least 13 months increased 8 percent in the Americas. Analysts estimated a 7.1 percent gain, according to Consensus Metrix, a researcher owned by Wayne, N.J.-based Kaul Advisory Group.
Starbucks fell 1.1 percent to $79.87 at 4:09 p.m. in New York. The shares climbed 51 percent this year through the close of regular trading today, compared with a 24 percent gain for the Standard & Poor's 500 Restaurants Index.

Or three, if you count each RBI.
In the first inning, Soriano -- selected as the All-Star MVP -- hit a three-run home run off Houston starter and former Yankees teammate Roger Clemens to put the AL up, 6-0. Soriano's home run, the second hit and second homer of his career in an All-Star Game, traveled 343 feet and capped off the six-run inning to give the AL a comfortable lead in a game they won, 9-4.
He finished 2-for-3 with three RBIs and one run scored.
"I felt a little sorry because he's been nice to me all of the time," Soriano said of Clemens. "But you know, I had to do my job in the game. I am sorry, but you know, I am happy right now."
His homer came one day after the second baseman was honored with an award from MLB.com and Ameriquest after leading all Major League players with 3,466,447 votes for the All-Star Game. He also set an online record with 3,056,277 votes at MLB.com.
Soriano took home the hardware, but he did not do it alone.
In the first, former Rangers catcher Ivan Rodriguez drove home Seattle's Ichiro Suzuki for the AL's first run. Rodriguez eventually scored on a home run by Boston's Manny Ramirez to left field for a 3-0 AL lead.
Yankees first baseman Jason Giambi reached on an error and teammate Derek Jeter singled to right field to set up Soriano's homer and put him on track to his first All-Star Game MVP Award.
In the third inning, in his second at-bat of the game, Soriano singled to left field off Randy Johnson, just past the outstretched arm of Cardinals shortstop Edgar Renteria, to load the bases for Royals first baseman Ken Harvey. Soriano would not advance.
In the fifth, Soriano struck out swinging in his third at-bat, on a fastball by Florida's Carl Pavano, and teammate Michael Young followed by reaching on a fielder's choice in his first career All-Star at-bat.
Young joined Soriano on the field in the bottom half of the frame in place of Jeter to complete an all-Rangers middle infield and wasted little time impressing the crowd.
With one out in the frame, he fielded a ground ball up the middle by Florida's Miguel Cabrera on the run, then completed the play with a nifty pirouette and throw for the second out.
"This was great," Young said. "I don't take for granted the fact that I was able to get out there and play today. I was every excited Mr. Torre put me in the game. I had a chance to get a couple at-bats, and I got a chance to make a play in the field. I had a blast."
Hank Blalock made his first appearance of the game -- pinch-hitting for Alex Rodriguez -- with one out in the sixth, and grounded out to second base on a 2-1 pitch from Pavano.
"I'm so happy for Sori," Blalock said. "That's another great thing for our organization after the first half of the season. To be in first place, and have Sori be the MVP is just awesome. We have to keep it going in the second half."
Blalock took over at third, but Cleveland's Ronnie Belliard replaced Soriano in the bottom half of the frame preventing the Rangers trio from being on the field at the same time.
Young grounded out to first base in his second at-bat before eventually yielding to Baltimore shortstop Miguel Tejada.
"I got to play with Sori and Hank, and I really enjoyed myself," Young said. "It really makes me want to come back every year and capitalize on these opportunities."
In a rematch of last year's All-Star Game in Chicago, Blalock squared off against Dodgers closer Eric Gagne in the ninth inning and flied out to left field on the first pitch. Blalock hit a home run to put the AL ahead by one run in last year's win.
"It was completely different. The situation of the game was completely different because we were up by five runs," Blalock said. "I still tried to hit the ball hard, but I pulled up a little bit and hit it off the end to pop up."
Neither pitchers Francisco Cordero or Kenny Rogers, who is nursing a sore hamstring, saw action Tuesday.
"How can I be disappointed? We won the game and Sori was named the MVP, and we are in first place," Cordero said. "I had talked to them about it before. I am not disappointed at all."

I can still remember going to the beach as a teenager and enjoying a cold beer on the ocean with my buddies. We had so much fun growing up and partying together. I miss those times and I think about them often as I get older. We were young, immature, and didn't have a care in the world!
Now I'm older, a little bit more wiser, but I long for days like that. I long for that carefree feeling. That worryless life. Now I wear a suit everyday and work in a big city. What happened to the simple life? I guess that is what happens when you age. Life gets complicated.
One thing I still enjoy from time to time is a nice cold beer. My favorite is a nice IPA. I particularly like Sierra Nevada's Torpedo! Nothing beats that hoppy flavor. I guess in my age I've gotten more sophisticated in my beer drinking too!
I used to just drink all the cheap stuff out there, and now I got for flavor than the buzz. Sierra Nevada makes some other great beers too. If you are ever in a store and see one I encourage you to pick one up!
I'm not sure if they have keg's but if they do that would be a fun purchase. Having a nice cold IPA on tap in your home would be a nice luxury. If they do have kegs then I will visit kegerator source for all my kegerator needs. No sense in having a keg without a kegerator…am I right?
What's cool about Kegerator Source is they also have mini kegerators too. If you are an avid beer drinking and especially a keg beer drinker then you should click here and check out some of their stuff when you get a chance.
Anyways thanks for reading about my childhood rants and my love for beer! All the best to you mates, and cheers!

Major New York Times Op-Ed Article Urges High Line Reuse as Public Open Space
On Sunday, November 2, 2003, the
New York Times
ran a major op-ed article by Kenneth T. Jackson strongly urging New Yorkers and elected officials to convert the High Line to an elevated public open space.
To read the op-ed article,

The article was remarkable both for the elegance of Jackson's essay and the beauty of accompanying photographs by Abelardo Morell. The photos and text together occupied the majority of the op-ed page, which is one of the most influential opinion pages in any American newspaper.
We still need your help. The preservation and reuse of the High Line is not yet a done deal, as Jackson noted in his essay. Friends of the High Line needs to secure an endorsement from the State of New York, a federal approval, and millions of dollars for rehabilitation and construction. That's why press support like this op-ed article is so important – and why your support is so important.
"The High Line can be another story of redemption in New York," writes Jackson, comparing the conversion of the High Line to the renovation of the Tweed Courthouse. Please help us make Jackson's words come true – by making an

He is professor of art at Massachusetts College of Art and author of A

Only one of Morell's photographs is included in the online version of the

The STB has granted the request, giving the City until January 5, 2004, to come back to the Board.
What does this mean? As many of you know, "rail-banking" the High Line (converting it to public open space through federal rails-to-trails legislation) requires approval from the STB, which has jurisdiction over all interstate rail lines. In December 2002, the City of New York formally started the process by filing a request with the STB for a Certificate of Interim Trail Use (CITU) for the High Line. A group of underlying property owners contested the legality of a CITU in this particular case, and the matter was the subject of a July 2003 hearing by the STB in New York City. By requesting the abeyance, the City hopes to engage in discussions with the affected stakeholders, including FHL, the railroads involved, relevant State agencies, and underlying property owners, with the aim of coming back to the STB with consensus. FHL will continue to keep you informed about the progress of this important issue.

It's a new year, and the new you might be looking to de-clutter not just your desk and closet but also your mind and body.
If so, you might be a good candidate for a detox — a cleansing of the mind and body that starts with healthy, plant-based eating, Elson Haas, author of the "Detox Diet," says.
"Detoxing is a treat. It's a vacation for the body, and especially for the digestive tract," says Haas, who has been promoting detox diets in his medical practice for 35 years. He is the founder and director of the Preventive Medical Center of Marin in San Rafael, Calif.
"It will leave you feeling lighter and younger," says Haas, who is also known as Dr. Detox. "It will cause you to think about food differently, and to look at your emotional connection to food. Ultimately, it's about reprogramming the mind about food and emotional well-being."
So what exactly does a detox diet entail?
Haas offers a few different detox programs, which differ in length (three days to a lifetime) and intensity (three-meals-a-day plan to fasting). But the basic detox diet is plant-based, deriving proteins and other nutrients from grains, vegetables, fruit, seeds and nuts.
So is the plan offered by Ebeth Johnson, a chef and healthful eating specialist at the P Street Whole Foods in Washington.
"Your body is detoxing on its own all the time, every day," she says at a cleansing-foods event that drew at least 20 people.
Anytime the body processes or removes waste from the body it's "detoxing." Not surprisingly, the liver and the intestines are big players.
"So the food that we pick should support the body's natural detox process. That means incorporating the G-Bombs, for example."

how much land
Farming and rural life discussion forum. Cooking, hunting, gardening, fishing, critters, etc.
Moderator: Team Cub
3 things I have learned from farming. These are 3 major things, but I have learned alot more. 1st if an old timer tells you something he is right. I have learned that the hard way more then once. 2 Hay is a hard and expensive business. If you are only doing a couple of acres it is not worth owning the equipment. Hay equipment only brakes down at the wrong time and there is never a cheap repair. I do 150 acres of hay on my own and I do custom work for 2 other people who only have 3 acres each. I had a used square baler and I found out the less I used it the more it broke. Hay equipment doesn't like to sit and it doesn't like being abused. It likes everyday use and maintance. (I know where your comeing from with the price of hay, but when you see what it takesand the cost to keep moving you would say wow not worth it to me) 3rd is the vegetable stand. Everyone loves fresh vegtables but won't stop or pay a fair price. I end up buy a soda and slim jim with the money I make and give the rest away before it goes bad. However an acre of pumpkins could buy you another cub. People pay more for pumkins and straw then food. It is simple logic most people will complain about food going up in price, but will pay 10 times the value of a decoration or hobby. This is why there are so many nurseries. people buy flowersand never price shop or complain about the price. raise milk 50cent a gallon and you could start a war.
I have to second these coments. Balers especially don't seem to like rust. We had an old baler back on Dad's farm that always gave more trouble in the first field than it did for the rest of the season. In fact, it missed more knots early each day than it did later in the day. I'm sure that the tiny bit of rust that would form overnight had to be polished back off before it ran right.
I agree with smigelski. I've made more friends growing pumpkins than corn. Of course, they grew even in the drought we had this year.
Ego diligo meus tracti.
(I love my tractors)
I definitely agree with that statement. We found on our old New Holland 77T (big monster) that if you were not going to use it for more than a day or so, things went much better on start up if you coated all the slides, knotter bill hooks, etc. with oil, especially when putting it away for the season.

5 acres of stumps
We have 5 acres of stumps, with 2 huge stump piles. have just enough cleared out to start plowing. Also have 55 apple trees on the way.
Mike if you put stuff out to sell,people will come!!!I hope you get honest people.I have 3 1/2 acres with about a 1 acre garden.My neighbors are all ready looking forward to my corn and crops.I hope to do real well like I did last year!!! The garden has been plowed and disc with a little more work it should be ready to go!!!!My postal carrier is hoping to get green beans[she lives in town]and wants a lot,so do I.I'm out of green beans all ready!!!Kevin

Sandy and I have 5.5 acres (give or take). We've fenced it, put up a 14' x 30' barn and we're letting our neighbors pasture 2 of their pack horses on our place in exchange for keeping an eye on things when we're not there. Eventually, there will be a garden, fruit trees, and plenty of work for my cubs...

I am hoping that we have a cubfest close to me this coming year, I need lots of things for my old gal.
I would be happy to just grow enough vegetables for my family, but I will need cultivators, a disc and a plow, and who know what else?
The only implement I have right now is a old A-C manure spreader, not even sure of the model. I wish it was one of those front unloaders, those look very cool!

My wife works on a certified organic farm. They grow organic fruits and vegtables as well as organic corn and soybeans. They have organic beef, chickens, pork and milk. The prices they get for stuff is $5 gallon for milk, $18 bushel for soybeans, $10 a bushel for corn, eggs $3 a dozen eggs etc. They farm almost 400 acres.

3.53/5 rDev -8.5%
Poured from a 12oz bottle into my nonic glass. It pours a proper deep, very clear amber with a thick, rising, fluffy, pouty off-white head that sits there for ages and only recedes to a thin but complete covering of the beer after a lot of sips. Lacing is phenominal, lots of sticky head bubbles clinging to the glass that mark the beer's progress. An extremely well-presented ale.
Smell a little bland; a little sweet oaty malt smell.
Taste is a little hoppier than a lot of ales, but it's a Stone brew, and they do hops well. The front half of the tongue is tingled with caramel flavors that are quickly overcome with the acidity of the hops on the way down; The bitterness hangs around a lot longer than I'd like, which brings the taste numbers down.
Mouthfeel is pretty good, a lot of sparse, tight bubbles come together to fizz across the palate, leaving sticky, chewy reminders of the hops for a long time. Nothing to write home about.
Drinkability gets a lower score because of the aftertaste; It kind of becomes a chore just to finish one of these, much less to reach for another.

I finally got around to buying this ale,it had been long enough.Poured into a standard pint glass a lighter shade of amber with a thinner but well retained clingy white head.Almost all pine and grapefruit rind in the nose wich is fine by me,just a faint whif of sweet caramel is there as well.Lighter mouthfeel with hop dominated flavors,quite citric with some lighter pine notes,the caramel base gives off some blancing sweetness.A easy drinking hopped up amber ale,nice.

Appearance Light, relatively clear brown body with a gorgeous head that went down slowly and covered the inside of the glass.
Smell There is a very sharp, piney hop aroma that hits hard. Im sure that there is more to this nose, but the sharp, rindy pine-style of hops fill the air.
Taste The taste is much lighter than the nose. Its pleasant, but the fairly sharp flavors contrast with the light body.
Mouthfeel Little carbonation and a light body make this one a pleasure on the way down.
Drinkability This is a good drinker, and a great choice if youre looking for a tasty ale with a low ABV.

Pour/Appearance: Rather thin head that maintained through the session and left thick lacing on the glass. Dark red tint; hazy with some visibility to other side when held to light.
Smell: Grapefruit! (cascade hops?)
Mouthfeel: Light bodied, yet relatively heavy on carbonation.
Taste: Citrus/grapefruit from the hops are very prevalent in this red ale. There is a lingering aftertaste of this flavor as well.
Overall an enjoyable ale, but unbalanced. Definitely on the extreme end of the hops scale for my taste buds.

This is the only Stone beer that I have tried that did not impress me that much. It poured a nice dark amber color with a great head that left lots of lace down the glass. The smell was quite malty with a hint of piney hops in there. The taste...well I can only describe it as "Arrogant Bastard light". It does have quite a bit of hop kick and a good malt backbone but it does not tase unique enough to give it a higher score. This beer is very easy to drink though, just not all that exciting.

I'm always excited to try a new Stone brew, this one with a levitating gargoyle on the front. It pours from the 12oz bottle into my glass a deep amber/red with a solid half inch of light tan foam. Quite appealing. Aromas start with a nice biscuity/bready/doughy maltiness and a touch of caramel. Plenty of pungent citrusy, resinous hops in the mix. Clean, sharp and vibrant.
First sip brings a big biscuit, doughy maltiness right out of the gate with a touch of caramel and a slight sour note. Herbal, citrusy hop tones come in midway through and meld in nicely. Slighty nutty, this one finishes with a mellow bitterness. Another tasty brew from Stone.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied with an expansive carbonation that engulfs the mouth and gives a nice creamy sensation. Easily drinkable, would make a nice session brew if I had access to it. Might serve as a nice crossover beer for those new to craft brew as well. Thanks to Callenak for the chance to sample this one.

Darker than most ambers I've had. Sits a nice clear dark caramel amber color in my pint glass. Had a nice one inch head on the pour that reduced to a quarter inch of dense tan foam. Coral lace grips the glass. I dont know how Stone does it with their head and its retention...always a highlight of their brews. Not much else I could ask for.
Sweet aroma with its caramel malting and dark bread hints. Floral and citrus hops dominate but there is actually a substantial malting component to this, but leave it to Stone to make some hops show up as well. Simple smell but still good.
Taste is a bit different than the aroma. More of an earthy, biscuit maltyness that is typical of most ambers. Finishes with the same earthy hops. Again pretty simple.
Mouthfeel is a touch thin to me. It sticks to the cheeks well but is a touch watery. Decent carbonation though leads to a crisp edge. Good drinkability though. I'd recommend this to someone who was just getting into craft beers, for me though there are others out there on the same level.

In my SA pint glass this beer was cherry amber color. It had a medium sized tan head that left a little bit of lace.
Aroma of sweet malt, outdoors, and flowers.
Malt taste first, followed by piney hops.
Very nice beer, well hopped. I gave it a little extra for mouthfeel just because I thought Stone did a lot with a 4.4% ABV beer.

12oz brown bottle. No freshness date.
Pours a clear, bright chestnut/rich dark amber coloured beer topped with a creamy, finger thick, off-white head. Nice stick and retention. Restrained hop aroma, floral, touch of grass with a slight toasty malt character in the nose.
A somewhat thick, rich-body, even a bit chewy and slick on the palate ... Tight, tingly carbonation. Hop flavours are herbal, sharp with salty/lime note of citrus, leaf, pine, wood and earth. Dry, a bit astringent. Malt character is pretty much all tied up in the body, yet some caramel (bit buttery, too) notes sneak through, along with notes of toasted bread, a slight twang of roasted malts, peanut skin, splash of fruity prune. At times, a bit vinous in character, too. Dry finish, with raw leaf and grain notes.
Who beat up the Arrogant Bastard? A less powerful, more sessionable offering from Stone, yet still complex. I like it, and I'd like to see more brews like this from them.

Way darker than I expected. It looks more like a straight brown ale to me. I'm guilty of associating alcohol level with darkness when picturing beers, and it basically shocks me that this dark brown ale is less than 5%ABV. The appearance of the beer leaves me shocked. Is that good or bad? I'm not certain, but it's not what I expected.
The smell is really good. It's like cedar chips. It's like an oaky pine tree...with oranges growing on it. This beer's smell could be the odor of a cleaning agent. I mean that with sincere fondness. It's comprable to the scent of freshly applied Pledge with Lemon on a big ol' mohagany executive desk.
The taste is quite good. Interestingly, I taste much of what I smelled, and it doesn't transfer senses quite as well. As far as American Ambers, I must say this is my favorite of memory. I acknowledge it's not my favorite style, but the malts in this fresh-tasting (got it on arrival day at the local spot), lemony vibe are not of the burnt variety with which I'm more familiar. This is a good beer.
The mouthfeel's got a lemony zing. The carbonation and lemon zest really provide a tingle. I'm glad I got this one fresh--I could see this one really degrading with time. This review might be unfairly skewed in a positive manner due solely to freshness, but reviews--like life--aren't fair.
The most drinkable red I've come across. At times, I'm a homer, but I'd have to say this tops Greensboro's own Red Oak. It's the closest thing to a malt bomb you can take to an afternoon picnic...except an ice cream sundae, I guess, but we're talking about beer....

The Levitation pours a copper-red with a creamy light tan head that goes to a thin film and collar.
Its aroma is a nice mix of spicy, piney hops and sweet caramel malts and some subtle notes of fruitiness.
The flavor is bready, sweet caramel malts initially, a little fruitiness and then a nice bitter piney hop finish. It is medium bodied and pretty smooth. It has a watery finish though that washes out a lot of the flavor.
Overall, I was let down a bit. I like how the sweet and hoppiness blended. But it seemed a little off. It's very close to being an excellent brew, but not quite there.

PLAINFIELD, Ind. — When Deanna French brought a tiny baby home from Chechnya, she had no idea the impact she would have on her life. The baby had barely survived her birth and was severely underweight at 11 months.
Now, 10-year-old Madina French is a thriving young lady living in this Indianapolis suburb, with Olympic aspirations and a desperate desire to become an American citizen.
"She was a premature baby that weighed 1.1 pounds," Deanna said. "She's a miracle baby."
Little Madina fought for her life but needed a lot of medical care.
Madina was born without most of her face. She has had 22 surgeries to construct a face and is still in need of more medical procedures. She will soon have surgery to construct a hard pallet.
Deanna was able to legally adopt Madina, but her country will not allow her to become an American citizen.
"And since she is not an American citizen, I cannot get any kind of help," Deanna said. "She doesn't have a Social Security number so I can't apply for assistance for her medical care. She is considered an alien in the U.S. even though she has been here since she was 11 months old."
Deanna said she has spoken to attorneys about her daughter's citizenship, but there has not been any progress.
Without a Social Security number, Madina is also unable to get medical insurance. She said leans on her church family at Plainfield Christian Church for help with Madina's care.
"My daughter has totally changed my entire life for good," she said. "But we've had to overcome lots of hurdles."
When Madina came to the United States at 10 and a half months old, she only weighed 10.5 pounds.
"She was wearing 0-3 month clothes," she said. "She didn't walk until she was almost 3 years old. Her muscles were flaccid and she needed more muscle control."

with Brett Bara
Join Brett Bara for every step of your garment-making journey, from unopened pattern to fabulous, finished skirt. Learn the ins and outs of using and customizing your pattern before you even cut out your fabric. Plus, you'll be ready to sew darts and a centered zipper before you know it. Your garment will begin to take form as you sew your front and back pieces together, add the waistband of your choice and finish seams. Then you'll add a hook-and-eye closure, hem your skirt, and voilà— you're ready to show off your signature style wearing your classic skirt.
Brett Bara introduces herself, explains the project pattern and choosing a size, and discusses the tools you'll need.
Brett demystifies the pattern instruction sheet, shows you how to read the markings on a tissue pattern and explains how to find the right lines for your size.
Brett helps translate the pattern instructions to get the most out of your fabric. You'll see how to transfer important marks and notches and learn two ways to cut efficiently.
Darts add shaping to the skirt, and zippers are easier to sew than you might think! Brett shows you how.
You'll put together the back and front pieces of your skirt, and see several ways to finish your seams for a smooth and professional look.
Choose between a smooth, faced waistband or a more traditional attached waistband.
You can hand-stitch for an invisible hem, or choose a machine-stitched straight stitch or blind stitch to finish your skirt edge.
It's easy to change the look of your skirt and make it unique by using print fabrics, changing the length, color-blocking it and adding a belt.

- Washington says Rangers can get better
- Lewis to put walk-less streak on the line
- Ogando's break should make him stronger
- Worth noting
ARLINGTON -- Rangers shortstop Elvis Andrus is on a good roll, batting close to .300 -- .291 entering Friday -- over the last two weeks to bring his season average to .239.He has reached base in 15 straight games, the fourth-longest streak in the American League this year. He has a stolen base in two straight games. He has walked in five of his last seven games. All of this while handling 82 chances without an error, the most of any shortstop in baseball. "He's starting to have good at-bats," manager Ron Washington said, "Starting to feel comfortable, starting to feel good about himself, starting to understand what he's capable of doing now. In the beginning of the season, you're always searching. You don't know how you're going to come out of the gate. "He's going to catch up, and he's starting to catch up," Washington said. "He's starting to become more aggressive on the basepaths."
Washington says Rangers can get better
ARLINGTON -- The Rangers had the best record in baseball at 15-4 entering Friday's series opener against the Rays. And still, manager Ron Washington said his team can play better -- specifically when it comes to moving runners over and scoring guys from third base with less than two outs.It's nitpicking -- the Rangers are batting .313 as a team with runners in scoring position. But there have been situations, especially with runners at third, where they can improve. "Our execution can get better," Washington said. "That definitely can get better. Getting runners over with nobody out from second base when we don't bunt, getting them in from third with less than two outs, infield in and we need a ball in the air, making sure you elevate it and drive it to the outfield. Those are things the game asks you every single day to do."
Lewis to put walk-less streak on the line
ARLINGTON -- Rangers right-hander Colby Lewis takes a streak of 24 2/3 innings without a walk into Saturday's start against the Rays. He said Friday he's doing nothing differently from his previous two seasons since coming back to the Major Leagues from Japan."I'm just going out there and doing it," said Lewis, who had a first-inning walk to Adam Dunn in the season opener against the White Sox. "The last couple of years, I've tried to improve each season. It's not a different mindset. I'm trying to make them earn it." Lewis averaged 23 walks in two seasons in Japan from 2008-09, and has had 65- and 56-walk seasons in his two years back with the Rangers. He could blow up with a five-walk game at anytime, he said before Friday's game. His manager, Ron Washington, said he does see a different command of the strike zone from Lewis. "He's able to spot his fastball better this year than last year, and he did better last year than the year before," Washington said. "He's competing. It's a matter of knowing who you are."
Ogando's break should make him stronger
ARLINGTON -- Rangers manager Ron Washington said Friday that Alexi Ogando doesn't need the rest -- he last pitched in relief Sunday against Detroit. But the four days off certainly doesn't hurt."It will do nothing but make him stronger," Washington said. The Rangers aren't going to use Ogando just to throw him, Washington said. And, for instance, the Yankees' lineup set up Wednesday where left-handed rookie Robbie Ross was only going to pitch to six batters at most. The last was left-handed-hitting Robinson Cano, whom Ross entered to face with two outs in the fourth inning. Ross ended up going 2 2/3 scoreless innings, retiring all eight batters he faced. Also, with Ogando, there's not a concern with his sharpness. He had 10 strikeouts and zero walks this season, tied for the most K's without a walk this season in baseball. "It's not going to affect his pitches in the strike zone," Washington said. "He's a strike thrower. It's not like he's a guy that erratic, and now that he doesn't pitch, he's going to be more erratic. That's not him."
Worth noting
Ross is the only pitcher with four relief wins in six appearances, dating back to 1918, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. Right-hander Neftali Feliz, who will make his next start Tuesday in Toronto, was available out of the bullpen Friday after working an inning in relief in Wednesday's 7-3 win over the Yankees. Double-A Frisco shortstop Jackson Profar, the youngest player in the Texas League, had an extra-base hit in six straight games (five doubles, one triple) entering Friday.
The Rangers signed right-handed pitcher Ross Wolf to a Minor League contract Friday and assigned him to Double-A Frisco. Wolf, 29, had appeared in seven games with Double-A Bowie (Baltimore) this season, posting a 6.75 ERA with seven strikeouts before he was released on Monday. The Wabash Valley (Ill.) College product was selected in the 18th round of the 2002 Draft by the Florida Marlins.

CRESCENT, Okla. — Hours after Army Private Bradley Manning was sentenced to 35 years in prison for leaking classified documents, about a dozen supporters gathering in the town where he once lived insisted he is a "whistleblower," not a criminal.
They stood vigil in front of the town hall in Crescent, a tight-knight community of 1,400 people about 35 miles north of Oklahoma City.
"We believe the sentencing is cruel and unusual punishment," said Amanda Armstrong, who traveled from her home in Stillwater, Okla. "Bradley Manning is a whistleblower who disclosed information that was very important for the public to know what the government was doing. He should not be in jail. I think he should be pardoned."
Manning was convicted in July of stealing 750,000 pages of classified documents and videos and disseminating them to WikiLeaks, the online anti-secrecy group. A military judge sentenced him to 35 years in prison, reduced his rank from private first class to private, required him to forfeit pay and benefits, and ordered his dishonorable discharge.
Less than a day later, Manning announced he wants to live as a woman.
"I am Chelsea Manning. I am female," Manning wrote in a statement read on NBC's "Today" show Thursday. "Given the way that I feel, and have felt since childhood, I want to begin hormone therapy as soon as possible. I hope that you will support me in this transition."
The Army responded in a statement that Manning will have access to doctors and mental health professionals in prison at Fort Leavenworth, but the military will not provide hormone therapy or gender reassignment surgery.
Manning's gender was an issue in his court martial, where his defense argued the Army ignored evidence of his struggles with gender identity disorder.

Paul McCartney To Perform at $10,000 Ticket Motown Fundraiser
Wednesday, September 5, 2012
Paul McCartney and Motown founder Berry Gordy, Jr. will be the guests of honor on September 18th, at Manhattan's Steinway Hall in celebration of the restoration of Motown's legendary studio piano. The 100-seat, $10,000-per-ticket fundraiser will benefit the Motown Museum, and feature both McCartney and Gordy performing on the piano.
Billboard reported that the 1877 piano that sat broken in Motown's Hitsville U.S.A. Studio A in Detroit after years of use at the label's Studio B, is at last repaired and ready to be played. After visiting the Motown museum on July 24th, 2011, McCartney saw the state of the piano and vowed to have it repaired at his complete expense. The piano began its train journey on October 31st from Detroit to Steinway & Sons' New York headquarters for a complete restoration, with the old, replaced parts preserved for exhibition at the museum.
At the time, McCartney talked about the piano in a statement, saying, "When I visited the Motown Museum, I remembered listening to records as a kid in Liverpool, learning the songs 'You Really Got A Hold On Me' and 'Money.' I said to myself, 'Wow! This is the Holy Grail!'"
Robin Terry, the granddaughter of the late museum founder Esther Gordy Edwards and chairperson of the museum board of trustees, hopes "to use the piano in our education programming and really inspire other talented people in the Detroit area community who are aspiring to be musicians, performing artists and the like."
Terry went on to say: "One of the things Paul said is he wanted to see this project through from beginning to end. We thought this was an appropriate way of doing it, unveiling the piano and inviting both Paul and Mr. Gordy to be the first to sort of put their DNA on it, if you will."

Re: check in for Northeast cubbers
We were with out power Sunday at 9:00 PM. I said to Bev God must want us to go to bed and we did. Electric came back on about 5:00 Am today. We are lucky for NYC water comes from the mountains. Fortunately water is one of the things to run down hill so we had that. With a natural gas water hot showers were available much to Bev,s pleasure. We had friends with electric water heaters in to help the new showers installed while we were at Kodiak's. and then vacation. We have an oddball gas furnace that doesn't need electricity to run. The micro-voltage from the thermocouple operates the gas valve through a special thermostat. We have no circulator but thermo-siphon as in a Cub does the job quite well. The stove has electronic ignition but a match handles that. The electronic control for the oven defied running manual so Bev roasted the chicken on the barbeque last evening.
Much of the rest of Staten Island is a complete disaster. It seems as if every other tree that fell brought down a pole with a transformer on it. We heard many of them popping around us. Bev asked is some fool setting off fire crackers, ther were so many.

Re: check in for Northeast cubbers
I read this, then looked at where you are located (Branchville, NJ) and thought it was - fitting, or ironic or funny (can't think of the proper word)
Anyhow glad you are all safe.
Re: check in for Northeast cubbers

Tuesday, October 28: Community Input Meeting for High Line Design
As part of a multi-stage planning process leading to a design master plan for the High Line, Friends of the High Line (FHL) will hold an open community input session on October 28. There, FHL will solicit public comment on the design proposals created for Designing the High Line, the ideas competition FHL held earlier this year. We invite local residents and business-owners and all interested New Yorkers to come tell FHL which designs you liked (and which ones you didn't like) and let us know what good ideas might have been missed by all 720 competition entrants. Public comment gathered at this event will be distilled into a list of community-mandated design guidelines that will be included in the Request for Proposals to be distributed to prospective design teams. This event offers High Line community members and the general public a valuable opportunity to register comments and ideas at the very start of the design process. We hope to see you there.
Tuesday, October 28 @ TIME TBA (Evening)

110 West 19th Street (6th/7th Avenues)
Please RSVP to Olivia Stinson via e-mail at
We will inform you of the meeting's start time in a future e-mail, or you can check the FHL Web site for updates.

Gansevoort Market Historic District Designated Mayor Bloomberg Relates Action to High Line Preservation
Following a three-year campaign for historic district designation by the Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation (GVSHP) and its Save Gansevoort Market project, the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC) voted to approve the proposed Gansevoort Market Historic District on September 9, 2003. The designation will play a crucial role in preserving the historic character of one of the most vibrant High Line neighborhoods.
Announcing the designation, Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg said, "We are very excited about the critical role that the Gansevoort Market Historic District, with its unique sense of place and historic importance, will play in the development of the Far West Side. This is just the first of several key projects, including the restoration of the High Line, the construction of Hudson River Park, and the development of the Hudson Yards, that form the core of the administration's plans for the Far West Side. When completed, these projects will revitalize the West Side of Manhattan, forming a necklace of dynamic waterfront communities, each with their own unique assets."

This major preservation victory could not have happened without the diligent work of Save Gansevoort Market co-chairs Jo Hamilton and Florent Morellet and GVSHP executive director Andrew Berman (all three of whom have also been dedicated supporters of the High Line's preservation). Friends of the High Line extends them thanks and congratulations.
