Chess Match: Twists and turns
Game 4 nail-biter hinges on interesting decisions
DENVER -- The most compelling game of this year's World Series was also the last one, a contest filled with intriguing twists. Little things made the difference again and again, so here is a look at a few of the tactical turning points.Coming in again
The situation: With a runner on third and no outs in the first inning, David Ortiz comes to the plate.
The decision: Colorado brings the infield in.The outcome: Ortiz pokes a single through the right side, a ball that likely would have gone for an out if the infield had been at regular depth. The next batter, Manny Ramirez, grounds into a double play. The analysis: As Rockies manager Clint Hurdle pointed out earlier in the series, this is how Colorado has played all year long, so the decision wasn't a surprise. But playing to prevent a single run, at the expense of a potential big inning, is rarely a winning play at Coors Field. Faith in the kid
The situation: Starter Jon Lester issues a two-out walk in the sixth inning, following a solidly hit line drive.
The decision: Lester comes out of the game in favor of Manny Delcarmen, who was shaky the night before.The outcome: Delcarmen gets the most urgently needed out, striking out Ryan Spilborghs to end the inning. He struggles in the seventh, though, allowing a homer and a single before Mike Timlin puts out the fire. The analysis: Frankly, Boston didn't have a whole lot of choices. The Sox clearly wanted to wait to use Timlin until a more dangerous part of the batting order -- Delcarmen came in to face the No. 6 hitter, then saw 7-8-9 in the next frame. And Eric Gagne is clearly persona non grata in any game-critical situation. "Manny Delcarmen is growing up right in front of our eyes. It's fun. You watch the veterans act like little kids, and then you see the young kids starting to act like veterans. It's gratifying." -- Red Sox manager Terry Francona Right-left -- right!
The situation: The pitcher's spot is due to lead off the eighth inning for Boston. Colorado had pinch-hit for its pitcher in the previous half-inning, so the Rockies were forced to go to their bullpen to start the inning.
The decision: Rather than calling on Kevin Youkilis, Francona taps another man to swing from the right side against lefty Brian Fuentes -- switch-hitter Bobby Kielty.The outcome: Kielty smashes a solo homer, stretching Boston's lead to 4-1. The analysis: A lot of decisions went into this one moment. Francona ran a big risk if he had used Youkilis. If Youkilis bats, but the Red Sox go down 1-2-3, Francona is in a tough spot. He'd be forced to choose between removing Youkilis from the game after his at-bat, burning the Sox's defensive replacement for David Ortiz, or substituting for Ortiz before the slugger got a last chance to bat. He made the safer play, and it worked out perfectly. The Red Sox got a run, Ortiz got one more chance to bat, and Youkilis came in for defense at first base. On top of all that, when Ortiz walked, Francona used Coco Crisp to pinch-run while Manny Ramirez was batting. That set up another defensive move in the bottom of the eighth, putting Crisp in the outfield and removing Ramirez.
"Bobby sitting around being a professional like he is, knowing what his job is, and putting a beautiful swing [on it] ends up making a difference." -- Francona

"LePage dogged again by remark," was the headline on a Bangor Daily News story reprinted in the Sun Journal Oct. 23. But the BDN and the Sun Journal have it wrong — it's the media that is relentless in dogging the governor about him speaking the truth and the liberal media doesn't want to hear it.
There are a lot of Mainers who work and expect no handouts and I, for one, resent the able-bodied who have found the secret to success through the state's generous social programs.
It is my thought that if all those "gifts" were not out there, more people would go to work.

Middle States Evaluation
Philadelphia University is accredited by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education. As part of the accreditation process, an evaluation team visits our campus every ten years to assess the extent to which we are meeting the 14 Standards for Accreditation established by the Commission. In between these visits, the University submits a Periodic Review Report to the Commission.
In 2006, Philadelphia University conducted a comprehensive internal assessment coordinated by a Steering Committee representing several campus constituencies. The result of this analysis was the Philadelphia University Self-Study. The Self-Study was submitted to the Commission and to an eight-member team of peer reviewers. This team visited our campus from April 23 to April 26, 2006.
The Philadelphia University Periodic Review Report (PRR), completed and submitted in June 2011, presents a comprehensive review of our University and its progress since the decennial self-study and re-accreditation by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education in 2006. The PRR describes the advancement of the institution, directly responds to the challenges identified in the previous self-study, depicts a faculty-led assessment process, and presents a greatly strengthened relationship between institutional planning and budgeting. The University's foundation has been enhanced by an improvement strategy that dovetails the institution's response to the 2006 accreditation report with the implementation of the Strategic Plan.
The 2013 Progress Report presents comprehensive review and documentation of how, over the past 18 months, Philadelphia University has focused attention and effort on its assessment actions relative to MSCHE Standard 14, Assessment of Student Learning following the university's Periodic Review Report (PRR) of June 1, 2011.
Additional information able the Middle States Commission on Higher Education and the accreditation process for Philadelphia University is provided on this web site.
Please note that University authentication may be required to view certain materials on this website, including the Self Study and the PRR.

Supervisors denounce move to cut their pay, County Board budget
A draft bill aimed at drastically cutting the pay for Milwaukee County supervisors and the budget for the County Board was denounced by supervisors Tuesday as an attempted power grab and an effort spawned by a "personal vendetta" of County Executive Chris Abele.

Mukwonago High School: Indians mascot will stay for now
The wall in the Mukwonago High School gymnasium proclaiming, "This is Indian country," will remain until the Mukwonago Area School District hears the last word on the mascot issue.

But the appeals court maintained Vertz and Schoolcraft had no grounds to file a lawsuit on the decision since they were not part of the initial hearing. »Read Full Article(19)

New Berlin - During three hours of speakers giving opinions to the New Berlin Plan Commission about a Walmart supercenter proposed for 15205-15375 W. Greenfield Ave., not one person favored it.
There were at least four recurring themes. One was that traffic is already bad there while another focused on worry that the area already has flooding problems and adding a big store with a big parking lot has the potential of making things worse. And even though the nearest subdivisions are some distance away, many complained about the lights that would be on 24-hours a day seven days a week and the noise of cars and trucks going in and out. Increased crime also was brought up as a concern. »Read Full Article(81)

Ex-pastor sentenced for assaulting boy
Neillsville - A former pastor from Clark County has been sentenced to 1 1/2 years in prison for sexually assaulting a boy he met on the Internet.
Dane County prosecutors say Ervin Witmer, 51, of Owen talked to the boy in an online chat room for gay teens and became aware that he had been sexually abused as a youngster by a relative. He then arranged to meet him at a Madison motel.
Witmer was a pastor at the Church of the Brethren in Stanley until 2011 when he became a district manager for a Christian book distributor. The State Journal says Witmer pleaded guilty in October to one count of second-degree sexual assault of a child. Two other counts were dismissed but considered at sentencing.

Audi Allroad Quattro Parts
About Audi Allroad
If you have an Audi Allroad Quattro then it's clear that you know all about how a well-engineered German vehicle performs. FCP Euro has the replacement car parts you need to always ensure that your Audi is performing at its highest level. The Audi Allroad Quattro is considered a crossover; it's also referred to as an estate executive car. The Audi Allroad Quattro has been manufactured since 1999 and is based on the Avant version of the Audi A6. One of the key features of the Audi Allroad would have to be the air ride system designed to handle rough roads with ease. The adjustable system lifts the car high enough to provide 8 inches of ground clearance. The air suspension system can also lower the car down to 6 inches above the road surface which also stiffens up the spring and damper rates making it a great setting for spirited driving. The last Audi Allroad model year for North America was 2005 but the Allroad model continued on in Europe.

By Glenn Kessler
The Washington Post
— "The president wants to raise taxes on the wealthiest 2 percent of Americans. But what that does is it net loses 700,000 more American jobs that are really from people who need those jobs."
— Rep. Pete Sessions, R-Texas, on Fox News, Nov. 8
"According to Ernst & Young, raising the top rates would destroy nearly 700,000 jobs in our country."
— House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, Nov. 9
- - - - -
The presidential election is over. Time to get ready for the fiscal cliff!
The fiscal cliff is the looming end-of-the-year expiration of the Bush-era tax cuts and the automatic spending cuts mandated by the Budget Control Act. The double whammy would likely sink the economy, though Democrats and Republicans disagree on the best approach for resolving the problem.
For his part, President Barack Obama has long urged retaining the Bush tax cuts for workers making less than $250,000, but letting tax rates (and some other provisions) rise for the wealthiest Americans. Republicans have opposed this, in part because they say it would harm small businesses that organize themselves so earnings or losses are passed though to the shareholders — who then are taxed at the individual tax rate.
Rep. Pete Sessions, however, went further and claimed on Thursday that hundreds of thousands of people would lose their jobs if Obama's proposed tax increase went into effect. And Boehner on Friday repeated the claim at a news conference. What's the math behind this claim?
The Facts
According to an aide, Sessions obtained his figure from a study prepared last year by two economists at Ernst & Young for the Independent Community Bankers of America, the National Federation of Independent Business, the S Corporation Association and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce — all opponents of the president's agenda.
That might be the first clue that this is potentially not a neutral document. One of the authors is also a former official in George W. Bush's Treasury Department.
The study is titled "Long-run macroeconomic impact of increasing tax rates on high-income taxpayers in 2013."
In other words, this is not an immediate impact, but the "long run." You have to dig into the endnotes on page 22 to find a definition of long run: "For models of this type, roughly two-third to three-quarters of the long-run effect is reached within a decade."
Oh. So, even if one accepts the assumptions in this model — a big "if" — it still means that the loss of 700,000 jobs would not come in the first year, or by the end of Obama's second term, or even a decade from now. Yet Sessions says the jobs would be taken "from people who need those jobs," suggesting it would have an immediate effect.
Moreover, while 700,000 jobs sounds like a lot, it actually translates into one-half of 1 percent of total employment. Given that this is a long-term prediction, there is certainly a lot of room for error. So much is dependent on the assumptions in the model.
There is also another revealing endnote: "Using the additional revenue to reduce the deficit is not modeled."
That means the analysts did not even study the effect of Obama's stated purpose for raising taxes; the 700,000 figure assumes that the revenue raised from the tax increase would be used for increased government spending. Yet presumably any deal on fixing the fiscal cliff would result in a lower federal deficit, since all sides agree they have that goal.
Indeed, there are also long-term effects from permanently extending the tax cuts without cutting the deficit. This is what the Congressional Budget Office said in 2010, after studying the impact of full, partial or temporary extensions of tax cuts: "The permanent extensions of the tax cuts would have much larger negative effects in the long term than the temporary extensions because the amount of additional government debt would be so much larger."
In other words, focusing just one variable — an increase in taxes — is a bit simplistic. By itself, raising taxes likely leads to a reduction in employment. But the use of that additional revenue over the long term is also important — such as whether it is used to reduce budget deficits or boost government spending.
- - - - -
Sessions is able to point to a study (though he stated the 700,000 figure as a fact), but on several levels his claim is misleading.
First, the study was underwritten by the White House's opponents. Second, the study never examined what Obama claims he will do with the revenue — dedicate it to deficit reduction. And finally, the total figure is so "long term" — more than 10 years away — that it is absurd to suggest those jobs would be lost in the near term.
As for Boehner, he did attribute the figure to Ernst & Young, but he went even further in saying the top rates would "destroy" 700,000 jobs. As we said, that is simply absurd.

A Kennesaw first-grader is fighting back against a painful bone cancer.Doctors removed 6-year-old Lyris Thomas' femur last year. After six months of chemotherapy, Lyris is back on her feet again. The Kennesaw Charter first-grade student got her bone cancer diagnosis back in April of last year after her leg wouldn't stop hurting. She spent six of the last eight months in the hospital with her mother and father close by. During that time, depression set in, according to her mother, Adrienne Thomas."It's been very difficult. You have your moments where you try to stay positive for the kid's sake," Adrienne Thomas said. Lyris lost her hair three weeks after her treatments. The family stepped in show support. "We all made a big ordeal of it and shaved -- Daddy shaved his head, we shaved the baby's head. My niece back home shaved her head…We made a big deal so she wouldn't be uncomfortable," Adrienne Thomas said.Her mother has started a blog about Lyris' journey. They say they quickly found out that they weren't the only family in their school community battling cancer.Adrienne Thomas says cancer among children is more common than most people realize and it can create a real hardship on the family finances."I almost had to let the business go because I couldn't work. I really couldn't work. So when you are used to having a certain amount of income coming in and now you are down one person, I mean, it got really bad," said Thomas.Lyris, who is now a Girl Scout, is looking forward to returning to some of favorite activities, such as roller skating and dancing. She will be featured in an upcoming benefit in April benefiting Children's Healthcare of Atlanta's AFLAC Cancer Center.Black Ties for Cancer will showcase several children with cancer during a gala and fashion show.

The Fringes
Scope of the Statute Book: The laws enacted in, and agreements agreed among actors and for initiatives listed in the Actor Map, Initiative Book, Local Development Books.
For persons, companies and other organizations in a country, and their initiatives (including those listed in the Norway Initiative Book), the statutes specify constraints and determine a context/baseline that the initiative has to take into consideration.
Well-designed, clear and enforceable agreements are essential to a complex collaborative endeavour such as development.
The website Better Regulation explains actions in the Better Regulation field, taken by the European Commission, other EU institutions as well as the EU Member States.
Inclusive development must reach and engage all members of society, in their diverse livelihoods.
Easy access to statutes, and to treaties with which they should be compliant, facilitate transparency of the political process, and a constructive dialogue among stakeholders. This will benefit the treaty and statute fit (are problems solved and have stakeholders been heard ?) and their adoption: stakeholders who have been able to participate in the political process are more likely to comply, as participation is likely to ensure a more fair access to benefits, and a better balance of burdens.
The coexistence of multiple treaties and statutes create difficulties in reconciling confusing or conflicting provisions. Those difficulties can be structurally reduced by engaging more stakeholders in the treaty and statute shaping, and by a culture of periodic reviews and subsequent statute improvement1.
Structuring treaty and statute books by COFOG class supports the clustering of their provisions. The interactions and claims to which provisions pertain support an open and constructive dialogue with stakeholders, in the first instance, as represented by actors at the macro and meso level, listed in the Actor Map of each country.
Poor quality treaties and statutes pose significant constraints to development initiatives, for instance those listed at Norway Initiative Book. Unlike other constraints, such as for instance the limited access to resources such as water and finance, the constraints to development imposed by unfit statutes are easy to remove, this is if there is the political will. The Initiative Books support mutual awareness of ongoing and forthcoming initiatives.
A treaty is a written agreement between two or more states. A treaty takes effect either immediately on signature or, more often, on ratification.
For most COFOG classes below, the contents of a treaty will focus on the structure and claims of the international organisation established in the area of the COFOG class, and its relationship to corresponding national actors.
National statutes in the area of a COFOG class will define standards for the function of government agencies and/or for other stakeholders who should comply with the provisions of the statute in their interactions2. In many cases the actors in the corresponding COFOG class, who can be found in a country's Actor Map are created to actively promote and ensure the compliance of stakeholders.
For a national actor, for instance a Department of Health, the relationship with the international organisation, such as the World Health Organisation will usually not be the core business. Yet a treaty may list objectives and provide instruments that national actors could rely upon in their work. In such a case, a treaty could describe procedures that national actors should follow to use (or contribute to) resources of the group, under the governance of the international organisation.
Some initiatives listed in the Norway Initiative Book may include roles for international organisations. Governmental work, performed as part of COFOG 01.1 - Executive and legislative organs, financial and fiscal affairs, external affairs may include the drafting of new statutes or the modification of existing ones.
Economic activities (as classified by ISIC) are among the main drivers for the creation of legal instruments, and private entities are important beneficiaries of their existence.
Whereas many economic activities are (more or less) compliant to relevant statutes and treaties, the overall institutional legacy is rather complex, and it has become increasingly difficult to craft and enact improvements to it. Moreover this legacy has also reduced the policy options for many developing countries, and it has created very steep learning paths which are hard to climb, especially for entrepreneurs and policy-makers of developing countries.

Rick Larsen on Gun Control
Democratic Representative (WA-2)
Make America the "Safest Big Country" in the World
After climbing relentlessly for three decades, crime rates started to fall in the 1990s. Nonetheless, the public remains deeply concerned about the prevalence of gun violence, especially among juveniles, and Americans still avoid public spaces like downtown retail areas, parks, and even sports facilities.
We need to keep policing "smart" and community-friendly, prohibiting unjust and counterproductive tactics such as racial profiling; focus on preventing as well as punishing crime; pay attention to what happens to inmates and their families after sentencing; use mandatory testing and treatment to break the cycle of drugs and crime; and enforce and strengthen laws against unsafe or illegal guns. Moreover, we need a renewed commitment to equal justice for all, and we must reject a false choice between justice and safety.
Technology can help in many areas: giving police more information on criminal suspects so they do not rely on slipshod, random stop-and-search methods; allowing lower-cost supervision of people on probation or parole; and making it possible to disable and/or trace guns used by unauthorized persons.
Above all, we need to remember that public safety is the ultimate goal of crime policy. Until Americans feel safe enough to walk their neighborhood streets, enjoy public spaces, and send their children to school without fear of violence, we have not achieved public safety.
While widely recognized today as a major political force and as America's foremost defender of Second Amendment rights, the National Rifle Association (NRA) has, since its inception, been the premier firearms education organization in the world. But our successes would not be possible without the tireless efforts and countless hours of service our nearly three million members have given to champion Second Amendment rights and support NRA programs.
The following ratings are based on lifetime voting records on gun issues and the results of a questionaire sent to all Congressional candidates; the NRA assigned a letter grade (with A+ being the highest and F being the lowest).
Establishes a national standard for the carrying of concealed firearms (other than a machinegun or destructive device) by non-residents. Authorizes a person who has a valid permit to carry a concealed firearm in one state and who is not prohibited from carrying a firearm under federal law to carry a concealed firearm in another state:

Alfonso Soriano: Cubs are that good
Veteran outfielder says team is among best he's played on
If everybody stays healthy, we have a good chance to accomplish something great here.
We didn't get the result we wanted in the postseason last year, but that translated into motivation for this year. We knew we had talent and opportunity last season, but it didn't work out. This year, we're back in the winning mindset, and I like our chances.
Our lineup is one of the best I've been a part of. We're very balanced from top to bottom, with guys who can hit for power and guys who use the whole field to get on base. Our lineup compares well to the lineups from some of the Yankees teams I was on at the beginning of my big league career.
We might not have the national recognition as those Yankees teams had, but there's a lot of talent on this team.
You could easily make the argument that Aramis Ramirez and Derrek Lee make up one of the top 3-4 combinations in the league. They're both very good hitters and very crucial to the team. They're our main sources of power, so responsibility lies upon them to bring runners home. The rest of us know that if we do our job by getting on base, Aramis and Derrek will usually take care of the rest.
Kosuke Fukudome has brought a lot to our lineup, too. He's a very good hitter and a very patient hitter. He's been a great addition. He can hit for power at times, and he can hit for average.
Personally, I like batting in the leadoff spot. I had to adjust to batting leadoff earlier in my career, but it's something I've grown to really like. I think Lou Piniella likes having me in that spot, too.
As a leadoff hitter, I don't really keep track of the number of leadoff home runs I hit. The important part of my job is getting in the pitcher's head -- getting on base, maybe stealing a base, moving up and scoring a run. It gives you a distinct advantage to put a run on the scoreboard when the pitcher has only thrown a few pitches. It can unnerve the pitcher and give your team a good boost.
Alfonso Soriano, a six-time All-Star who broke in with the Yankees as a second baseman in 1999, is having another standout season with the Cubs. Despite a broken bone in his left hand that kept him on the disabled list from June 12 through July 22, Soriano has 22 home runs this season. He's hit at least 28 homers in each season since 2002.

Basketball player misses four shots...in a row...at his own basket
You haven't really played basketball until you've accidentally taken a shot at your own hoop.
OK, maybe that's just us.
Anyway, a basketball player in Belgium whose name will remain anonymous (because can't find it and we figure he'd rather not have it shared), picked a good time to go cold from the field.
