- Rangers dealing with day-night complexities
- Texas marks 40th anniversary of home opener
- Worth noting
DETROIT -- Rangers third baseman Adrian Beltre is hoping to miss only a few games after straining his left hamstring in the Rangers' 10-4 win over the Tigers in the first game of a doubleheader Saturday.Beltre missed five weeks last year with a strained hamstring, but the Rangers are hoping this injury won't land him on the disabled list. "I don't think it's quite as bad as last year," Beltre said. "It didn't grab me as much. Hopefully it will be a couple of days, just 2-4 days." Beltre did not start against the Tigers in the second game and won't play on Sunday. The Rangers open a three-game series with the Yankees on Monday at the Ballpark in Arlington, and Beltre will be re-evaluated before that series. "It bothers you to lose Beltre, but we still have to play baseball," Rangers manager Ron Washington said. Game-time temperature for the first game was 43 degrees, and Beltre was injured running into second base on a double in the top of the second inning. Alberto Gonzalez went in to pinch-run for him. "He didn't want to walk off the field," Washington said. "The man has his pride. He said he would be careful, but we weren't going to let it happen. It's cold, and if it's slight, we want to keep it slight." Beltre admitted the cold weather wasn't helping matters. "Back home it will be warmer," Beltre said. "I don't want to miss a lot of games, especially the way we're playing." Michael Young, who was the Rangers' starting second baseman in Game 1 while Ian Kinsler was used at designated hitter, was at third base for the night game and will be there while Beltre is out. He was the Rangers' regular third baseman when Beltre was on the disabled list July 23-Sept. 1 last season. "Wherever the team needs me, I'll be ready," Young said. "A.B. got banged up last year and I was ready. The way this team is constructed, we need A.B. and Kinsler and everybody else to stay healthy the entire season. That's our best team. If we do that, we're going to pile up a lot of wins. The biggest thing for me is to stay ready."
Rangers dealing with day-night complexities
DETROIT -- Rangers manager Ron Washington wasn't particularly thrilled with the idea of playing a day-night doubleheader on Saturday."I don't like doubleheaders at all," Washington said. "If we have to play them, you'd like to play them back to back. But we have to do it, so we'll deal with it." The doubleheader was required because Friday's game was postponed by rain and the Rangers do not come back to Detroit again this season. The Rangers and Tigers also play Sunday afternoon, so the teams are looking at three games in 27 hours. The biggest concern is with the pitching staff, but Washington said that won't be a problem if his starters continue to do the job. Rangers starters went into the doubleheader with a record of 9-0 and a 2.37 ERA while averaging over six innings per start. "Hopefully they can keep us in the game," Washington said. "If we have to use the whole bullpen in both games, then we'll have to make an adjustment." Washington said he won't hold back anybody for the second game. If a pitcher is needed to win Game 1, Washington will give him the ball. "I'll deal with the game I'm dealing with," Washington said. "When we get to the second game, we'll deal with whatever is presented."
Texas marks 40th anniversary of home opener
DETROIT -- Saturday marked the 40th anniversary of the Rangers' first game in Arlington. The Rangers, after moving from Washington D.C. in the offseason, played their first four games on the road before opening at Arlington Stadium on April 21, 1972.The Rangers, who had lost three of four, won their home opener with a 7-6 victory over the Angels. Dick Bosman beat Clyde Wright, and Frank Howard hit the first home run with a blast to center field in the first inning. Tom Grieve, on the Opening Day roster for the first time in his career, was 2-for-4 as the Rangers' left fielder. "The only thing I remember about that day was standing on the first-base line wearing a cowboy hat and [manager] Ted Williams standing on first base wearing cowboy boots with spikes, and thinking how different this was going to be," Grieve said. "It was also obvious that it wasn't going to be a sellout, which was automatic in Washington on Opening Day. But I was just happy to be on the Opening Day roster, whether or not I was wearing a cowboy hat or the stands were full." The Rangers were supposed to open the season at home. But the players began the season on strike, and the first 10 days of games were cancelled and not replayed.
Worth noting
The Texas Rangers Baseball Foundation will host 50 children from Miracle League in an exclusive fantasy baseball clinic through a partnership with Baseball Fantasy Camp for Kids LLC on Sunday from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. at the Doug Inman Miracle League Field at Randol Mill Park. Twelve former Rangers players will welcome the youngsters to the Doug Inman Miracle League Field. That day, the young players will be given the unique opportunity to receive instruction from the former Rangers before playing a game. Mike Napoli started at catcher for Game 1 on Saturday. Manager Ron Washington said Yorvit Torrealba will start Game 2. Game 2 starter Neftali Feliz did not come to the ballpark for Game 1. The Rangers told him to just hang out at the hotel and rest.

Using no electricity, this is the compact trainer that simulates cantering on a horse to strengthen and tone the core muscles. Exercisers sit on the padded saddle, rest their feet on a rubberized bar, and shift their weight backward to put the device's drivewheel in motion. As the saddle rotates at a moderate 40 rpm or less, it requires the rider to engage lumbar muscles, abs, glutes, and thighs, building core strength to help prevent back injuries and improve balance and posture. A 10-minute session can burn as many calories as 200 situps or a one-hour walk. Because it doesn't require a power cord, the device can be used anywhere, and it weighs half as much as many core trainers, allowing it to be moved easily between rooms or stowed away between workouts. The seat and footrest can be raised or lowered. Supports up to 250 lbs. Assembly required. 31" H x 22" W x 28" D. (35 lbs.)
"In just two weeks have noticed strengthening in my lower back and core muscles. Great little exerciser for people that also want to strengthen their knees and legs. " - IAW, Wisconsin

By Nona09ish
from PA
I sent HS a check and had this machine inside a week! It was easy to pit together, is VERY well made and totally, 100% SILENT !!!!! It's nice looking, takes up little room and is NOT heavy. A GREAT exercise machine, fun and very much like riding a horse. I have long legs, so I just put the seat in the highest position. The ONLY thing that I did NOT like was in the instructions it said: "not suitable for use by seniors over 65"! Get over it people, some seniors are more fit than 30 year olds!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Ride 'em Cowgirl!
By Wendy the Shaker
from Flossmoor, IL
I have Parkinson's Disease. Getting out of a chair, or a car and bed is very difficult because people with PD most likely have weak cores as well as weak legs and arns. Some have it worse than others which is me. I have used my core machine for 2 weeks several times a day usually ten minutes each time. At first I couldn't get coordinated but lt took just a couple days until I figured it out. I am going at it slowly as I was never very physically active. It is amazing. Even my balance is better. I have to expend alot of energy because I'm only 99 lbs. But let me tell you that I feel every part of my body getting a workout. It's alot of fun also. My husband likes it too when I let him use it. I told my neurologist about it and he was very pleased that I'm using the machine. I can't begin to tell you how happy I am and how much better I am doing. Of course there are some days when I can barely walk due to the ridgidity associated with PD but that's to be expected. My family also sees a difference. I wish I can take it with me on vacation but it won't fit in the car with everthing we take. So up until we go I'll be riding the rodeo everyday. Giddyupp! Taking numerous meds and riding the rodeo core builder I truly believe I might be able to get up out of a chair with ease and out of a car without grabbing onto anything. Great product. Thank you!

Rodeo Core Compact Core Exerciser
By Glenn
from California
This is a very unique exercise that takes a little getting used to, but after a few days you can easily get the hang of it. It's something that you will improve on over time. It's a combination of pushing with your legs and pressing backward to start a sort of horseback riding circular motion. The machine is very smooth and stable. Once you start moving, it's easy to keep moving with the leg and core movement of your body. After 10 minutes you can feel a burn in your thighs and certainly a tightening of your abdomen muscles. And you start sweating! If it holds up with constant use, then it's a great exercise product.

Quality that's hard to find!
By Iced in all winter
from Northern Wisconsin
Excellent service and delivery. Sturdy quality with excellent quality hardware that should hold up to long use. In just two weeks have noticed strengthening in my lower back and core muscles. Great little exerciser for people that also want to strengthen their knees and legs. Keeps you going during the long winter months. Afordable!

from Los Angeles, CA
5 minutes on the Core Exerciser is better than a 2 mile run. It's cute as can be and is a serious exerciser. I can feel the burn and it feels good. It's small, compact and light enough to transport anywhere and still feels solid and strong. It was easy to assemble. I did my due diligence and this product kept coming up on top. It does what it says it will do, powerful core exercise in a short period of time. I recommend it strongly.

Works for me
By LAD
from Atlanta GA
I hoped that the rodeo core exerciser would help rehab my core while I watch TV. This exerciser lives up to that expectation and is great. It doesn't use any external power since I make it operate. I choose the speed and intensity by how hard I want to work out. It has two directions. Park it in front of the TV, get on and start. It's easy to use. One thing to share is that the seat height has a limit. I have a 33 inch inseam and worried a bit before getting started. But everything was fine. Knees feel good using it and I get a good work out that I can feel upon completion. I'm very happy with this purchase.

Review from a Horsewoman
By savvydoc
from Ontario Canada
The rodeo core machine does mimic canter and gallop on a horse depending on the speed you gather riding it. At first my seat was too low and i felt like I was being bucked off, but I found a youtube video demonstrating how to ride it and in no time I was literally off and running on it. Perfect to exercise core and legs, but also for balance, as independent use of upper body develops too. Absolutely perfect for riders to improve strength, stamina and balance. Easy to use, and right away I felt abdominals tighten up!
My whole core and legs are much improved
By Cheryl the horse lady
from Lexington, VA
I had a bad knee replacement and I have ridden andtrained horses all my life. This is really likeriding a horse, so I'm improving rapidly. I enjoyusing it; does not feel like exercise and I canwalk better after a session and stretch

Easy to assemble and great fun!
By Melanie the linguist
from KC, MO
This is an amazing tool to help strengthen your core. My physical therapist is happy that I am using this! This workout does not charge your spine, and allows you to determine how fast or slow you care to go. Easy to use even with disability.LOVE this!!!

Muscat is the capital of Oman, a sovereign country. Muscat has been important since the 6th century BC, when Persians controlled the port. It was under Portuguese domination from 1508 to 1650, and subsequently the Iranians gained control of the city.

Muscat offers a number of exciting excursions including dolphin watching and off-road desert adventures.

KANSAS CITY -- Just when you thought election season was over, three Royals are candidates on a GIBBYs ballot.
That's the Greatness in Baseball Yearly Awards, for which fans may cast their votes on MLB.com. Royals fans can weigh in on the worthiness of left fielder Alex Gordon, third baseman Mike Moustakas and right fielder Jeff Francoeur in three categories.
Gordon, already a two-time Gold Glove Award winner, and Moustakas, who gained rave notices in the field this season, are up for Defensive Player of the Year.
Each club has a one nominee for a Play of the Year, and Moustakas is the Royals' candidate for his recovery of an overthrown ball that bounced off a dugout post in St. Louis and a throw that nailed Tyler Greene at the plate, ending a 3-2 K.C. win.
Francoeur is also cited for a grab -- of a handful of popcorn from a fan's box that he munched after chasing a foul ball to the rail at Chicago. That comes in the Oddity category.
Major League Baseball's A-listers will take home 2012 GIBBYs trophies -- the ultimate honors of the sport's awards season -- based on votes by media, front-office personnel, MLB alumni, fans at MLB.com and the Society for American Baseball Research.
This year's GIBBY Awards feature nominees in 21 categories. Individual honors will go to the MLB MVP, in addition to the year's best starting pitcher, hitter, closer, setup man, rookie, breakout hitter, breakout pitcher, comeback player, defensive player, manager, executive and postseason performer.
GIBBY trophies also will be awarded for the year's top play, storyline, hitting performance, pitching performance, oddity, walk-off, Cut4 topic and postseason moment, from MLB.com's Must C highlight reels.
In the past four years, you, the fans, have cast more than 40 million votes across the various categories, none of which is restricted to individual league affiliation.
You can vote as many times as you want until fan balloting closes on Sunday, Dec. 2, at 10:59 p.m. CT.
Winners will be presented their GIBBY trophies at the MLB.com Greatness in Baseball Yearly Awards extravaganza during the Winter Meetings in Nashville, Tenn., on Tuesday, Dec. 4.

CHICAGO -- Twice before in his career, Mets closer Armando Benitez missed out on participating in the All-Star Game because of injuries.
This time, he made it as the Mets' lone representative, but his career All-Star innings remained at zero. Benitez didn't enter Tuesday's All-Star Game at U.S. Cellular Field, watching some of the other National League closers give up a 6-3 lead as the American League came from behind to win, 7-6.
"I'm not disappointed," Benitez said. "It was a great game. I enjoyed being here."
The fraternity of closers is a tight one, and Benitez obviously felt empathy for Eric Gagne, the Dodgers stopper who gave up three runs in the eighth inning to get the All-Star Game loss.
"We talked about it," Benitez said about the pitch Gagne threw to Hank Blalock for the game-winning, two-run homer in the eighth. "He thought he threw a good pitch. Those guys can hit the ball."
Benitez could very well be the last guy to throw his teammate under the proverbial bus for a loss. He's no stranger to shouldering the blame, pitching in the pressure cooker that is New York and blowing a career-high seven saves in the first half. Gagne stated that players win as a team and lose as a team, that no one should be the guy who takes the heat. Benitez responded with a smile and a cocked eyebrow.
"No one guy deserves taking all the responsibility?" Benitez asked. "We do lose as a team and win as a team."
It seems more and more likely that team will soon be changing for Benitez. Late reports Tuesday had the Mets closer headed to the Yankees for pitcher Jason Anderson to set up for Mariano Rivera.
It's extremely possible representing the Mets in the All-Star Game may have been his last official act wearing the blue and orange. A trade would end an up-and-down 4 1/2 year stint with the Mets in which Benitez saved 160 out of 185 save opportunities (86.5 percent), but never completely earned the trust of fans in New York.
"I'm not worried about it," said Benitez, who confirmed he had lunch with agent Mike Powers Tuesday afternoon but would not divulge the subject matter of their meeting. "I'm ready to play. Wherever they send me, I'll do my job.
"They'll make a decision and I'll take it. It'll only be for two months."

Auburn is rarely considered in the same breath with Whitneyville, Northfield, Marshfield and East Machias.
But those communities have something in common with Auburn: They all spent less than $8,000 per pupil to educate their children in 2012-2013.
Of the 231 school districts in Maine, only 14 spent less per pupil than Auburn. Ten of those are tiny towns located in Maine's three poorest counties, Washington, Piscataquis and Aroostook counties. Four others are in Penobscot County.
There are no communities in central or southern Maine that spent less per pupil to educate their children than Auburn.
While not wealthy, Auburn has a per capita income of nearly $20,000, compared to Whitneyville ($13,115), Marshfield ($15,969) and East Machias ($13,254).
Critics have pointed to the size of the increase on Tuesday's ballot, 6.9 percent, and it is large.
But when you look at other communities in Maine, they are simply providing relatively more money to educate their children, often much more.
Auburn voters are likely to face a series of increases over the next several years because of a law recently passed by the Legislature without opposition and signed by Gov. Paul LePage.
That law requires all of the state's school districts to spend what the state calculates is the amount necessary to cover "Essential Programs and Services" for its students.
The EPS was introduced in 2004, and Maine districts have been working toward meeting this minimum ever since. Auburn, unfortunately, has fallen behind.
As the accompanying chart shows, both Lewiston and Auburn were a considerable distance from that goal in 2012-2013. Lewiston voters recently approved a school budget that will move their schools much closer to the EPS target.
Even so, in 2012-2013, Lewiston was spending about 10 percent more per student than Auburn.
Opponents of the tax increase will argue that Auburn is not a wealthy community and that its residents cannot afford to pay more for schools.
But, when looking at statewide data, it becomes clear that there are many districts with lower per capita incomes that are not only spending more per pupil but have already reached their EPS goal.
For instance, in 2012-13, Lewiston was providing about 10 percent more per student toward EPS while it showed $2,037 less in per capita income.
Biddeford, with significantly less per capita income, is spending nearly $1,500 more per pupil per year.
Among the eight larger cities we surveyed, Auburn spent the least.
You will hear opponents say the Auburn schools received an increase from the state for its 2013-2014 budget.
That's true, but the district is so far behind that more is necessary.
Critics will argue that Auburn has several failing schools and middling test results, so why support higher taxes?
Does anyone really believe that spending even less on our schools will improve those results? If we are spending less than what the state thinks is "essential," could that be part of the reason we are seeing poor results?
Critics will also talk about slush funds, fund balances and other mysterious ways that Auburn could close this gap.
This, we believe, is nonsense. Reducing a carryover balance will not move the district toward the EPS minimum.
Critics will say that the state should step up and fund 55 percent of local educational expense as required under law, rather than the 45 percent the state is budgeted to provide.
But the state is wrestling at the moment with an $800 million deficit, and an increase in school funding is off the table for the foreseeable future.
Some will say that's unfair and hypocritical — how can the state demand Auburn come up with the money when the state hasn't done the same.
That is unfair, but the bottom line remains: 80 percent of the communities in the state have already met the goal, some of them poorer and more hard-pressed than Auburn. Many of the remaining 20 percent are already much closer to the goal than Auburn.
As we mentioned, only 13 other Maine communities — all tiny and rural — are spending less per pupil than Auburn.
Citizens will have an opportunity to stand up their schools and children Tuesday.

For Immediate Release
September 15, 2011
Media Contact:
Daniela Oliver, 210.805.1754
September 7 to December 18, 2011
Tony Straiges, Maquette for Boys Bathing Unit in Sunday in the Park with George,1984. Musical with lyrics and music by Stephen Sondheim and book by James Lapine.
San Antonio, TX. - Mythic Greek gods and heroines, remorseless Elizabethan villains, Romantic ballets with tragic lovers, and Broadway's most sophisticated musicals engage visitors in this fall's exhibition from the McNay's extensive theatre holdings in the Tobin Collection.
Rich in scene designs, Shakespeare to Sondheim includes scale models (maquettes) of the Trojan horse from Hector Berlioz's opera Les Troyens, complete with trap door for the invading Greeks; and the throne room from William Shakespeare's Richard III, outlined with red evoking the king's bloody rise to power. Center stage are costume designs including Ivan Bilibin's exquisite watercolor of Odette in Swan Lake and Ann Hould-Ward's graphite drawings for Sondheim's Sunday in the Park with George, inspired by Post-Impressionist painter Georges Seurat. As always, the installation contains audio, Internet, and video stations with music and performance clips.
Ballet: Swan Lake. Choreographer: Stanton Welch. Dancer(s): Artists of Houston Ballet. Photograph: Amitava Sarkar.
This exhibition was organized by the McNay Art Museum and is a program of The Tobin Theatre Arts Fund.
The Tobin Collection of Theatre Arts
The Tobin Collection of Theatre Arts, includes close to 9,500 objects, it emphasizes scene and costume designs for European and American theatre from the 16th century to the present. Highlights include Baroque festivals, Shakespeare plays, the Ballets Russes, Broadway musicals, and contemporary operas. The Tobin Collection includes the work of path-breaking designers from Edward Gordon Craig and Robert Edmond Jones to Ming Cho Lee and Ralph Koltai, as well as by artists in the theatre including Pablo Picasso, Natalia Gontcharova, Robert Indiana, and David Hockney. Both the print and theatre collections are complemented by an extensive collection of more than 2,000 rare books. Primarily focused on the history of costume and stage design, the collection ranges from Baroque festival books commemorating royal European celebrations to rare volumes on bookmaking, the science of perspective, and books by artists on book illustrating. Noteworthy volumes are one of three known copies of Serlio's treatise, De Architectura; the complete works of Chaucer printed by the Pre-Raphaelite artist William Morris; and Klange, illustrated by Wassily Kandinsky.
To bring the designs to life, the McNay is borrowing actual costumes including armor worn by Placido Domingo as Aeneas in Les Troyens (Metropolitan Opera), cloak and crown of the hunch-backed Richard III (Chicago Shakespeare), tutus and headdresses for Odile and Swan Maidens (Houston Ballet, shown here), and plumed gown from "Losing My Mind" in Sondheim's Follies (Paper Mill Playhouse).
The McNay
Built by artist and educator Marion Koogler McNay in the 1920s, the Spanish Colonial Revival-style residence opened as Texas's first museum of modern art in 1954. Today more than 100,000 visitors a year enjoy works by modern masters including Paul Gauguin, Vincent van Gogh, Edward Hopper, Georgia O'Keeffe, Pablo Picasso, Jackson Pollock, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir. In June 2008, the museum opened the 45,000-square-foot Jane and Arthur Stieren Center for Exhibitions designed by internationally renowned French architect Jean-Paul Viguier. Nearly doubling the McNay's exhibition space, the Stieren Center includes three separate outdoor sculpture galleries.
Tuesday-Friday, 10 am-4 pm;
Thursday, 10 am-9 pm;
Saturday, 10 am-5 pm;
Sunday, noon-5 pm.
The McNay is closed on Mondays, New Year's Day, Independence Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.

HOUSTON -- Hank Blalock competed in his first Century 21 Home Run Derby on Monday night with an advantage enjoyed by no other contestant. He had four Rangers teammates, plus trainer Ray Ramirez, at field level to cheer him on.
Before the contest, Blalock couldn't be certain how much of any advantage it would provide, given the inclination of ballplayers to give their teammates grief when possible.
"Mikey [Michael Young] is probably going to rag me every ball I don't hit out, which will probably be ten of them, but we'll see," said Blalock. He later determined his fears to be unfounded with crowd noise drowning out any potential catcalling while he occupied the batter's box.
Francisco Cordero, who sat with his teammates along the third base line as Blalock competed, had promised his unequivocal support, however.
"I'm just going to pull for him. He's my teammate and I'm going to pull for Hank."
Blalock did not escape the first round of the competition, knocking three long balls in thirteen attempts after following Barry Bonds. Blalock mentioned that he, Miguel Tejada and David Ortiz had joked together about their combined home run totals not reaching 500 as they watched each member of the 500 Home Run Club, including Bonds, introduced before the contest.
As Blalock walked off, Young, Cordero, Ramirez, Alfonso Soriano and Kenny Rogers all offered high-fives. The Rangers third baseman noted the support he received.
"They gave me some props. They said, 'You did good, at least you hit a couple out, nice going.' "
He joined former teammates Ruben Sierra, Juan Gonzalez, Ivan Rodriguez and Alex Rodriguez as Rangers who have participated in the Century 21 Home Run Derby. Only Gonzalez won the event, defeating Ken Griffey Jr. in 1993 in Baltimore. Would Blalock consider becoming the second Texas player to compete in two such events (Alex Rodriguez exited in the first round in both 2001 and 2002)?
"That would be great," he said. "I'd love be able to do them in the future, but obviously you have to have good results by the All-Star break. You have to be voted to the game first, and then hitting home runs, there are a lot of things involved. But it was a great experience."
If he continues to post 23 home runs by the All-Star break, as he has done this season, Blalock may get plenty of opportunities to acclimate himself to Derby Day.
