The Washington Post
— Georgetown University is joining one of the most prominent ventures in online higher education, a Web platform known as edX that provides courses from elite schools to a global audience for free.
The addition of Georgetown to edX marks the latest development in a fast-growing movement that aspires to connect the ivory tower to the world.
Millions of people have signed up this year on Web sites for massive open online courses, or MOOCs, which offer self-paced learning through video lectures, tests, homework, discussion boards and other digital interfaces. Advocates say MOOCs will democratize higher education and spark a teaching revolution on campuses. Skeptics call it little more than brand promotion.
EdX, which Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology launched in May, hosts MOOCs from those schools and the University of California at Berkeley. The University of Texas system joined in October and Wellesley College last week. Like Georgetown, they plan to add MOOCs to edX next year.
Another MOOC platform, Coursera, which launched in April, hosts classes from Johns Hopkins University, the universities of Maryland and Virginia, and 30 other major U.S. and foreign institutions.
For Georgetown, the nation's oldest Catholic university, securing an agreement to work with the site led by MIT and Harvard was a major coup. Two hundred colleges and universities have approached edX about possible partnerships. But the site's leadership has been extremely selective.
"We would like to have the best courses from the best professors from the best universities," edX President Anant Agarwal said. "Georgetown certainly brings that."
Georgetown President John J. DeGioia, who helped oversee an accreditation review of Harvard a few years ago, said he and Harvard President Drew Gilpin Faust began discussing MOOC ventures over the summer. DeGioia said it became clear that it would be possible to work with edX as he met with Agarwal at the Web site's headquarters in Cambridge, Mass., in mid-September.
"We're truly honored" to be invited to join edX, DeGioia said in an interview.
Details of the arrangement, including financial terms and what online courses Georgetown will offer, remain to be settled. The university expects to build MOOCs in social sciences and humanities, drawing on strengths in areas such as international relations, law and public policy. The courses would launch by next fall.
Georgetown officials, echoing counterparts at U-Md., U-Va. and elsewhere, said they hope the MOOC experiments will shed light on how to improve campus instruction. What are called learning analytics — a data trove mined from student interaction with MOOCs — could provide rapid feedback to professors, enabling them to retool lectures and seminars.
"We're all searching for the optimal blend of face-to-face experience and online experience," said Robert Groves, Georgetown's provost. "And the world hasn't figured that out yet."
The emergence of MOOCs has prompted talk about how they might shake up the economic model of higher education, especially if students are able to use them to earn credit toward a degree. That's no small question for private institutions such as Georgetown, MIT and Harvard, where annual tuition and fees for an undergraduate student exceed $40,000 a year.
For now, though, prominent universities are not offering credits for their MOOCs.
For edX, securing Wellesley and now Georgetown might signal the beginning of a new phase of growth as the site navigates a global market just beginning to take shape. To date, Coursera has moved faster than edX in many respects.
Coursera counts more than 2 million registered users. Agarwal said edX has surpassed 500,000 unique users — a figure he called "staggering."
As of Friday, Coursera listed 208 MOOCs and edX nine.
Coursera's courses cover a variety of material: introduction to astronomy (Duke University), women and the civil rights movement (U-Md.) and introduction to computer networks (University of Washington), among many topics. A coming course from Brown University is titled "The Fiction of Relationship," with a reading list that includes Herman Melville, Franz Kafka and Virginia Woolf.
So far, edX's offerings are heavy in technical fields — for example, circuits and electronics (MIT), introduction to computer science (Harvard) and foundations of computer graphics (Berkeley).
EdX officials say they plan to roll out new courses soon, including some in the social sciences and humanities.
"I actually think we're moving quite quickly," said Michael D. Smith, dean of the faculty of arts and sciences at Harvard and a member of the edX governing board. "We've got a pipeline of courses coming out now. You'll continue to see us accelerate."
EdX is nonprofit, while Coursera is for-profit. That may explain, in part, why Coursera is growing at a faster pace. Both platforms are considering various ways to generate revenue without charging tuition.
Analysts say that edX is seeking to carve out a high-quality niche in the market.
"The interesting question is, how good is the thing that's free?" said Kevin Carey, an education analyst at the New America Foundation. "It doesn't surprise me that they're being deliberate about it. If they're putting their brand names behind this effort in a very public way, you absolutely want to mitigate against the risk of people saying, 'This is no good.' "
Jeff Selingo, editor at large for the Chronicle of Higher Education, said MOOCs could evolve into a recruiting tool.
"Remember, all these universities scour the world for the most talented students," Selingo said. "They're always trying to find that diamond in the rough."
Eventually, he said, universities may weigh whether a prospective student has passed a MOOC: "Why shouldn't that be considered as part of your portfolio for admission?"

1 The Shed
113½ E. Palace Ave.
The Shed's red knocks us dead.
This Santa Fe institution serves a red chile sauce that's bright, fruity, intense and hot, exactly the way we like it. Blanketing a plate of enchiladas and seeping into a pile of pinto beans, this red chile reminds us why we live in New Mexico. How miserable an existence it must be to not be able to stroll over to the Shed for some meaty, tender carne adovada infused with the flavor of magnificent ripe chiles! How lucky we are to be here! Think of that the next time you order huevos rancheros with two eggs sunny-side up, and then let your fork gently pierce the yolks and watch the warm golden egg spill into the velvety red chile.
Have you ever poured the red over your steak or ladled it liberally into your posole? Oh you haven't, have you? Well order another margarita and get creative with it! Take some of that famous garlic bread, spread it with red chile and dot it with carne adovada. The Shed pizza!

Those days are only a year removed, but they seem a lifetime away.
Hank Blalock, Francisco Cordero, Kenny Rogers, Alfonso Soriano, and Michael Young -- the faces of the future, and one from the past -- have transformed the second-oldest franchise in the Lone Star State into a first-place team with more than a lone star.
"We traded away Alex and lost a bunch of players through free agency, and when you do that, you really don't know what's going to happen," Rogers, 39, said. "But I think it gave a lot of young players an opportunity and they seized it. They went out and showed the people what they are capable of doing. These guys are out there to make their mark, and I'm happy they have done that. In turn, it has made us a better ballclub."
Young and Cordero are making their first All-Star appearance, while Rogers and Blalock are making their second appearance. Soriano is playing in his third All-Star Game.
All five players addressed the media Monday afternoon, and plan on participating in all the All-Star festivities available, not the least of which is the game Tuesday.
"It's been pretty overwhelming so far," said Young, who brought his wife and parents to Houston. "I'm trying to take the advice that everyone has laid out for me, and that's to soak it all in and have a good time. I'm enjoying the first part of it, and I have two more days to make the most of my experience."
The Rangers have made the most of their first half. The club came into the All-Star break in first-place with a two-game lead over Oakland in the American League West.
Along with the annual Home Run Derby and Astros pitcher Rogers Clemens, the Rangers have been a hot topic of conversation in the Bayou City.
To call them one of the surprises of the 2004 season is an understatement.
"It's not the fault of anybody that we surprised people, because when you look at our division, it's so talented," Young said. "I think everybody was expecting Anaheim to play well with the great additions they made, and you can never count out Oakland with the pitching they have. I think everybody expected those teams to make the most noise, and we kind of slept under the radar a little bit.
"The biggest thing is we are not finished yet. We have to improve and get better each game this year. When we go out on the field, we expect to win and that's something I hope we can keep going through the second half of season."
But before the second half of the season begins, the five All-Stars are going to enjoy their time in Houston. Rogers was all smiles and somewhat paternal as he addressed local and national reporters. Blalock, the hero of the 2003 All-Star Game in Chicago, appeared comfortable in the spotlight -- for once -- and stroked his goatee like a new toy after most of his answers.
Soriano, as usual, did not hide his glee for life, and Young acted ... like Michael Young -- calm and collected, yet unable to hide a childish grin.
As for Cordero, he was so eager to get to Houston he made the four-hour drive from Arlington with his brothers not long after arriving in town from Boston on Sunday night.
The Rangers closer made it to Houston at approximately 6 a.m., and said part of the reason he drove was to spend time with his family in preparation of one of the most adventurous two days in his career, so far.
Funny thing is, not long after he arrived, Cordero said he felt like he was at home.
"This feels like I'm in the Texas Rangers clubhouse, with us sitting next to each other, talking and laughing," Cordero said. "It's a great feeling to be here and have four of my teammates with me. There are a lot of people in baseball and out of baseball -- really everybody -- who is surprised with us. They were expecting the Texas Rangers to be left behind, but we are not."
Blalock echoed Cordero's sentiments and had a feeling the Rangers were going to be better than many believed as early as Spring Training. His belief in the team increased with each game -- and each win.
The five All-Star selections are a result of individual accomplishments, but also the team's success, he said.
"Everybody knew we had players who could go out and be competitive," Blalock said. "It was just a matter of if we could put it together. Everybody knows we can do more things in the future, and we expect our second half to be just as strong, if not stronger, than the first half."
For the Rangers to continue their success, the effective pitching cannot stop. Rogers, who is in his third stint with the club, has paced the Rangers staff with a 12-3 record and a 4.19 ERA. Cordero has 27 saves in 29 opportunities.
"When I first got here, I thought we had a chance to surprise a few people, but then we made a few trades and I was concerned, without a doubt," Rogers said. "You never know what's going to happen or unfold during the season and I'm happy to say it has worked out."
That too, is an understatement.

Bloomberg News
— Wal-Mart Stores, the world's largest retailer, has been adding financial products for people who don't have bank accounts. Now it's targeting those who do.
A prepaid debit card called Bluebird, created through a partnership with American Express, will be available in more than 4,000 U.S. Wal-Mart stores and online next week, the Bentonville, Ark.-based company said Monday in a statement. Services include direct deposit, automatic bill pay and remote check capture using a smartphone application. The card has no monthly or annual fees, and doesn't require a minimum balance.
"Bluebird is designed as a checking and debit alternative," Daniel Eckert, vice president of financial services for Wal-Mart U.S., said in an interview. The product is for "those customers who are waking up to the skyrocketing costs of having a checking account."
Wal-Mart abandoned plans to start its own bank in 2007 amid opposition from legislators and financial-services companies. At the time, the retailer's application to open a so-called industrial bank in Utah would have enabled it to process credit- card and debit card transactions internally.
The retailer has been adding financial services and products to boost store visits in the U.S. after so-called same- store sales declined for two years through July 2011, according to Matt Arnold, an analyst for Edward Jones & Co. in Des Peres, Mo. Bluebird will probably appeal to the low-income consumers Wal-Mart depends on because they can often only afford basic accounts without such features, he said.
"There's still a huge piece of the population that doesn't enjoy that, and for them this could wind up being a better alternative," said Arnold. The card appears to be created to increase store traffic and relevance rather than profit, he said.
U.S. sales at Wal-Mart fell in part because it removed items from the stores, making it less of a one-stop shopping experience, Arnold said. While Bluebird won't have a major impact on results, it could help improve that aspect, he said.
"Anything they can do that adds to the one-stop shopping opportunity will only help their relevance," Arnold said.
Bluebird had been tested in some stores in the United States since 2011. During the pilot phase, Wal-Mart learned that its customers wanted the account to offer many of the services that banks offer without the fees, Eckert said. U.S. consumers pay an average of $259 a year for a basic checking account, Wal-Mart said in the statement, citing a study by Bretton Woods.
Wal-Mart is further capitalizing on its push for Congress to cap debit-card "swipe" fees charged to merchants, a Dodd- Frank Act provision that has cut annual revenue at the biggest U.S. banks by about $8 billion. The payments industry predicted that lenders would impose checking-account fees in response to the legislation, pushing lower-income consumers out of the banking system.
The agreement may help American Express expand beyond its core credit- and charge-card business and drive more spending to its global payments network. Targeting Wal-Mart customers also contrasts with AmEx's historic focus on affluent consumers.
"Now we have the ability to address different segments of not just the U.S. markets, but frankly across the world as well as those who might not be traditionally best served through a charge or credit product," Dan Schulman, group president of the firm's enterprise growth business, said on a conference call.
Wal-Mart and American Express are backing the start of the program with a national marketing campaign that will include television ads, Eckert said.
A Bluebird starter kit will sell exclusively in Wal-Mart locations for $5. It will be merchandised at checkout and at the front of stores, Eckert said. Consumers can also go to Bluebird's website and sign up for free.
The addition of Bluebird may help Wal-Mart to attract shoppers from Dollar General Corp. and Family Dollar Stores Inc. that have been gaining customers since the recession by adding food and other products, said Patrick McKeever, managing director for MKM Partners in Stamford, Connecticut. Bluebird users can deposit cash into the account at Wal-Mart stores.
"You get consumers in the stores to do more of their financial transactions, and maybe that represents a modest threat to the dollar stores," McKeever said. "Dollar stores don't offer this kind of service currently."
Wal-Mart declined to disclose the financial terms of the partnership. Bluebird can only be used where American Express is accepted, Eckert said.

The state of Mississippi is home to two of the SEC's top three returning quarterbacks.
Welcome to Raycom News Network's live blog from SEC Media Days in Hoover, AL.
Mercy what a jumble the SEC has become so early in the season! Let's take a look at what lies in store this week:
Louisiana Monroe, Marilyn's younger sister, hopes to improve to 2-0 in the SEC this week.
A clash of savage birds is going on here: the Warhawks face a team with a War Eagle for a mascot. LaMo is a 16-point underdog at Auburn. But they were a 30-point road dog against Arkansas last week, and the school sold commemorative T-shirts after that one.
Auburn quarterback Kiehl Frazier, who made more turnovers than Pillsbury in the loss at Mississippi State, is at the epicenter of a tailspin that could become a Category 5 disaster if the Tigers manage to lose.
After this week, Auburn faces in succession LSU, which kicked five more players off the team this week, and Arkansas, which is experiencing a whole other level of sorrow.
Auburn will probably win, but curling up with a bloody Mary and watching this one is suddenly a better idea than cutting the grass.
Nick Saban spent the first two weeks of the season lambasting the media for talking too much about how good the No. 1 Alabama football team is. All that positive publicity made the players so overconfident that the Crimson Tide barely eked out a 35-0 win over Western Kentucky.
This week, as UA prepared to play the team formerly known as No. 8 Arkansas, we have received approximately the same amount of communication from Tuscaloosa that we have from extraterrestrial life forms. Historically, ominous Alabama silence means bad news for opposing teams. Saban, who is a little, shall we say, obsessive, has his team in ultra-super-focus mode.
Arkansas fell apart last week. Key players got hurt, among them QB Tyler Wilson, who got knocked cold. Late in the game the TV cameras panned the Arkansas sideline as the tragedy unspooled and viewers witnessed the same deer-in-the-headlights gaze from Razorback coaches that Alabama fans saw not so long ago, when Mike Shula was in command.
Arkansas toppled completely out of the AP Poll, the longest drop in the history of time.
Perhaps the Hogs will regain focus and determination for Coach John L. Smith, stage a massive upset and fans wearing plastic pig hats will weep with relief and joy.
Don't count on it.
Back when Apple stock was cheap, this game was big stuff. Florida and Tennessee were the class of the SEC. They had clear eyes and full hearts and the smack talk was great.
When Tennessee quarterback Peyton Manning made the emotional decision to return to his beloved school for his senior year instead of pursuing NFL riches, Florida's Steve Spurrier, who was a lot funnier when he was the coach of a really good team, said it was because Manning wanted to be a three-time Citrus Bowl MVP.
See, boys and girls, back in those days the Citrus Bowl was where the second-place SEC team always played. The Citrus Bowl is now called the … never mind, you had to be there.
Now both teams are back on the upswing and all hopey changey. UT and UF are nationally ranked for the first time in years, and both are contenders in the SEC East. Sort of. No, really. That's not funny. I'm serious.
Tennessee is off to a 2-0 start, and the Vol Nation is dancing around the golden calf, envisioning serial victories and eternal greatness. QB Tyler Bray is excellent, and the offense around him is very good. But the defense is sketchy, and the Vols have played precisely nobody.
Florida isn't as pretty or cool as Tennessee this year, but does have a certain blue-collar charm. Those Gators slugged out a win against a better-than-expected Bowling Green State team in the opener, then came from behind and dog whipped Texas A&M at Kyle Field in front of one of the only crowds in college football that compares in insanity to the 102,455 bellowing wild people dressed in orange pants and things that will inhabit Neyland Stadium.
The youngsters from Missouri got their comeuppance last week. Somebody ran his mouth and said Georgia played "old man football," which was a very bad idea. The Tigers showed up for their first SEC dance wearing uniforms that looked like a roller derby team and Georgia proceeded to take them way down south to the Okefenokee Swamp, drug them through the mud and the mosquitoes and water moccasins and snapping turtles and said "Old man that, ladies." Following that rude initiation, the Tigers now carry the SEC torch against interlopers from Arizona State, of all places, and they dang sure know what is expected of them.
Texas A&M at SMU – The Aggies, too, will be expected to crush non-SEC opposition.
Texas visits Ole Miss, and we find out if the Rebels are gangsters or pranksters.
Western Kentucky comes to Kentucky. If this is a good game, Kentucky is awful.
Mississippi State at Troy. Troy's home field used to be a land mine for visiting teams of prominence – ask Marshall, Missouri and Oklahoma State. Not right now.
UAB at South Carolina. Coach Spurrier, please play somebody soon, OK?
Idaho at LSU. LSU kicked some more guys off the team, but that shouldn't make much difference against the Fighting Potatoes.
Florida Atlantic at Georgia. zzzzzzzzzz.
Presbyterian at Vanderbilt. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

You might recall last season that you could buy Justin Verlander's Fastball Flakes cereal. Now the same company is offering something different with another Tigers' player -- Miggy's Salsa.A raucous crowd that wouldn't be out of place at Comerica Park was on hand Monday to greet Miguel Cabrera at the Meijer in Livonia."What about all these fans out here?" I asked him."That's great," he said. "That's why Detroit is [such a] special city."In between chants of "we love you" and "MVP," Cabrera joked with the fans, signed autographs and answered questions."How that homer feel last night?" one person asked."Awesome," Cabrera replied.Going deep on a 3-0 pitch is great, but is the salsa good? I took around some samples of the mild and the reaction was enthusiastic, but really Cabrera's face could be on a gallon of anti-freeze and it would sell."What is more likely to be served in the Tigers' clubhouse, Fastball Flakes or Miggy's Salsa?" I asked him."Both," he said.Meanwhile, a young fan asked whether it's true Cabrera has made the Tigers the best team."Yes," he answered.Miggy's Salsa is available at Meijer for a limited time. A portion of the proceeds will benefit charities in Detroit and Venezuela.

Primary Instructor: J. Lee Lehman
This course can be used as an elective for the diploma.
This is not an introductory course. CS100 Essential Dignities Workshop or equivalent is required.
You may have used natal astrology to tell that you are likely to move this year - but is the house you just looked at a good match? Your client's chart may show relationship issues, but is the guy she just met last weekend a prince or a frog? And what if your cousin's birth time is uncertain - he still has questions! This course will give you the depth and experience to answer all of these questions - and many more!
This 10-week course includes a coursesite with weekly assignments, discussion forum and resource materials along with 90 minutes of on-line questions and exercises per week, on Tuesdays evenings from 5:30-7:00 pm Pacific / 8:30 - 10:00 pm Eastern
Text Copyright 1996, 2004, 2007 J. Lee Lehman:
Horary astrology is a part of one of the oldest branches of divination: that of asking questions. Normally, when we use the word horary, we refer specifically to the particular sets of rules for interpreting an astrological chart drawn for the moment of asking a question, a type of astrology also known under the Sanskrit name prashna. However, let us not forget that the urge of humans to obtain answers to important questions by divining, or asking the gods, is much older. Horary astrology in a sense is merely a technology for reading that divine answer, like the I Ching, or Tarot.
In Shang Dynasty China, the king would ask questions frequently, often involving the question of what sacrifice the gods wanted. In ancient Babylonia, all manner of omens – really, any deviation from business as usual, whether unusual birth, unusual weather, or unusual bird formations, as an opportunity to divine the message from the gods. As astrology gradually gained primacy as a method for reading the heavens, and hence the place of the gods, so it later became a preferred means of similarly reading the gods' messages.
We all ask questions. Some of these questions are more important than others. What makes a question important? It's not how much money is on the line, or whether you really need to move. It's whether you care more about knowing the answer than about what the answer is. Suppose you're driving to work, and thinking about that new person you interviewed yesterday. You could be thinking, "I wonder if Jane would be good for the job." Or you could be very impressed with Jane, and convinced that she could really help you with that next big project, so you say, "Will my company hire Jane?" The first is not a horary question, while the second one may be. A horary question is one in which the person asking the question really wants to know the answer. It is this serious interest which allows a horary astrologer to interpret the moment when the question is asked. Casual curiosity is not enough.

There are correspondences between the physical body and the astrological chart. From ancient times to the Renaissance, medical doctors used these correspondences to help them in their practice.
The purpose to this course is not to engage in medical practice as understood legally. But these traditional tools can help the astrologer offer specialized services to their clients, mainly concerning the timing and circumstances of medical care provided by licensed practitioners.

Though Alex Rodriguez hopes to return from hip surgery sometime after the All-Star break, Yankees general manager Brian Cashman acknowledged in an interview with WFAN on Friday that the veteran third baseman could miss the entire season.
Rodriguez, 37, underwent surgery on his left hip on Jan. 16 and was initially expected to miss approximately six months.
Cashman, though optimistic A-Rod will return as planned, is prepared for the "chance" the third baseman isn't able to suit up at all this summer.
"Yeah," Cashman told WFAN, when asked if there was a chance of missing the entire season. "I think because [of] the serious nature of the surgery and the condition that he's trying to recover from, you know, there is that chance."
Rodriguez hit .272 with 18 homers and 57 RBIs during the regular season last year, but struggled in the postseason. The three-time American League Most Valuable Player Award winner was just 3-for-25 (.120) in postseason play, including 0-for-18 with 12 strikeouts against right-handed pitchers. He was lifted for a pinch-hitter on multiple occasions before eventually being replaced in the starting lineup.
Earlier this offseason, the Yankees signed veteran third baseman Kevin Youkilis to a one-year, $12 million contract to replace Rodriguez while he recovers from the injury. Youkilis hit .235 with 19 home runs and 60 RBIs in 122 combined games with the Red Sox and White Sox last season.

EHR Use Increases Clinical Insight
There is a national urgency in the matter of using the electronic health record (EHR) optimally for timely patient data, improved clinical insight, and an overall improvement in the delivery of care. In order to make accurate and seamless health information exchange a reality, Masspro is engaging primary care providers to assist in inculcating best-practices that maximize the use of the EHR to increase their capacity to deliver preventive services such as mammogram screenings, colorectal screenings, and influenza and pneumonia vaccinations.
Improved use of the EHR also helps practices ensure timely and accurate reporting of clinical quality measures into incentive programs such as Meaningful Use or Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS).
Masspro's quality improvement team can help practices in the following areas:
- Workflow analysis for improved data entry with the goal of accurate and timely patient information.
- Tracking of preventive care and immunization services delivered.
- Facilitation of timely clinical reminders at the point of care.
- Identification of patients not receiving tests and immunizations.
- Measurement of improvements in clinical performance and population health.
- Improved reporting of clinical quality measures
Massachusetts EHR Learning and Action Network
Masspro is partnering with Massachusetts e-Health Institute (MeHI), the Regional Extension Center for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, to create the Massachusetts EHR Learning and Action Network. Focused on clinical quality measures reporting and performance improvement, this collaborative is part of a national initiative coordinated by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and local QIOs.
The Massachusetts EHR Learning and Action Network is an opportunity specifically focused on providers enrolled in the Regional Extension Center, and will provide participants with tools that assist in their efforts to earn both EHR and Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS) incentives and, most importantly, fully utilize EHRs.
The collaborative will organize a series of educational programs which will introduce, discuss and support clinical quality improvement measures and processes, and encourage and assist EHR users to utilize the full capabilities of the EHR system to improve patient care. Participants will be specifically assisted with:
- Using the registry and care management functions of their EHR
- Interpreting EHR data and reporting to identify and address disparities in care
- Educational programming, best practices, and intervention tools to improve use of preventive services and cardiac health, including approaches to promote engagement of the patient and family to improve patient health and self-management
- Identifying and sharing best practices and success stories related to the effective use of HIT / Meaningful Use / HIE to improve use of preventive services and cardiac population health
- Sharing effective strategies for patient self-management
- Using resources provided through the LAN
- Demonstrating Meaningful Use to participate in the CMS EHR Incentive Program

Embattled Rogers an All-Star pick
Rangers pitcher to join three teammates at Midsummer Classic
Kenny Rogers' recent caught-on-videotape altercation with a pair of television cameramen has garnered national media attention. But it will not completely overshadow his sterling pitching performance in the first-half of the season.Rogers, who tossed 7 2/3 innings in a 2-1 loss to the Mariners on Sunday, was named to the American League All-Star Game pitching staff later in the day, as a result of voting by Major League players, coaches and managers. The voting was complete before Wednesday's incident at Ameriquest Field in Arlington, in which Rogers shoved and yelled at one cameraman, then wrestled a camera away from Larry Rodriguez, a cameraman from Channel 4 KDFW in Dallas-Fort Worth, before a game against the Angels. Rodriguez left Ameriquest Field on a stretcher and was taken to a hospital. Commissioner Bud Selig issued Rogers a 20-day suspension and an undisclosed fine -- reported to be $50,000 -- on Friday.
But Rogers is appealing the suspension.So he was able to make his Sunday start against the Mariners in Seattle and he will be allowed to join his teammates Mark Teixeira, Alfonso Soriano and Michael Young at the Midsummer Classic at Detroit's Comerica Park on Tuesday, July 12.
"He was voted on the team by the players and the league, he appealed his suspension, the league is not going to look at that until after the All-Star Game," said Red Sox manager Terry Francona, who will manage the American League team in Detroit. "So I abide, like everybody else, by the league rules. That's kind of where it starts and it ends."
On the season, Rogers is 9-4 with a 2.45 ERA.
"Kenny, the last two years, he's probably had as good of years he's had in his career," Rangers manager Buck Showalter said. "I'm real proud to have a front row seat and watch it. I'm real proud of all our guys. The fans did a good job and, I thought, the players, the coaches and managers did a good job. It's a system that seems to be working a lot better."
Rogers has yet to make a public statement about Wednesday's incident. His lawyers, Tim Evans and Mark G. Daniels, issued the following statement on Friday:"Kenny Rogers would like to make a statement. However, in light of the ongoing investigation, it is not advisable for Kenny to comment directly and publicly at this time. "On Kenny's behalf, though, we would like to express to Mr. Rodriguez, Rangers fans, all baseball fans and his teammates that Kenny is truly sorry for the incident that occurred and regrets that it happened."
Angels manager Mike Scioscia said the incident shouldn't take away from what Rogers has done on the mound during the first half of this season.
"What Kenny did was wrong. I think everybody knows that and he's going to pay a price for it," Scioscia said. "But do you negate everything he has done in the first half as far as being an All-Star pitcher? That's a tough question. He's going to pay a price, but I don't think it lessens the impact of what he did in terms of pitching performance."
On Sunday, Rogers was charged with two runs on six hits and picked up the loss. The start was his first since allowing 10 hits and six runs in 3 1/3 innings against Anaheim on June 22, also a loss. He missed his next scheduled start while recovering from a broken bone he sustained in his non-throwing hand after punching a cooler following an outing against Washington on June 17.
"We expected Kenny to pitch well today," Young said. "As far as we're concerned, when the game starts, all that stuff is over. Those three, three and a half hours on the field, that's our time to put it all aside and go play baseball. I'm sure Kenny feels the same way. We expected him to go out and pitch like Kenny does and he did. It's a shame we couldn't help him out a bit."

We asked NRA members to send in their best photos from 2013-14 hunts, and published many of them in the June 2014 issue. Here are the photos that were featured in the print edition of American Hunter this year. Keep checking back as we will be adding a new entry almost every day from those that didn't make the print edition.
Spring typically means the end of the line for waterfowlers and the beginning of "duck depression." There is a way to squeeze a little more action out of your season: a spring snow goose hunt. Managing Online Editor Shawn Skipper spent a week hunting the reverse migration in South Dakota this spring, armed with Remington's Versa Max Waterfowl Pro and Federal Premium's Black Cloud shotshells. Find out how he fared with this gallery.
Nebraska in March can be chilly—even frigid—but that doesn't stop a band of dedicated hunters intent on hunting spring turkeys. With its diverse terrain and two-bird limit, central Nebraska offers even fanatics an incredible turkey hunting experience, even if at times it may feel like a winter deer hunt.
As NRA President James W. Porter II gears up for the final leg of his turkey grand slam, take a look back at what he has accomplished to date!
NRA President Jim Porter has been covering the turkey hunting bases this week, hitting three states in five days in pursuit of three of the four U.S. subspecies! NRA Publications' John Zent broke the news on Porter's Rio Grande in Texas late yesterday, and this morning we've got even more great photos to share. Check out the action in the gallery below.
NRA President Jim Porter got a break from the bad weather on Tuesday morning and dropped a beautiful Eastern gobbler, marking the second of the four turkey subspecies he needs to claim his prestigious grand slam.
By late afternoon on Porter's second day of the hunt, the rain stopped in time for him to run out with nothing more than a gun, a couple of box calls and a camera. Within minutes, a tom was answering! Too bad he wasn't quite ready to strut into shotgun range, but tomorrow is another day. In the meantime, here is a glimpse of Porter's first Alabama outing.
NRA President Jim Porter has his own eye on the outdoors as he and Ray Eye, host of "Eye on the Outdoors," head out to chase Osceola—subspecies No. 1 of the four he needs to achieve his grand slam.
While U.S. upland bird seasons are closed by March, this month is prime time for quail hunting in some parts of sunny Mexico, particularly for the black-throated bobwhite variety found throughout the Yucatan Peninsula. NRA Outdoors, a service that organizes hunting and fishing excursions specially tailored to NRA members, offers an intriguing three-day hunt in Yucatan's rural northern coastal plain, not far from the tourist mecca of Cancun. A party of six American hunters, including NRA Outdoors chief Greg Ray and Editorial Director John Zent, found the welcome there to be as warm as the weather, the birds were abundant, and the shooting downright excellent.
Since junior high, NRA Publications Editorial Director John Zent has had a love-hate affair with shotguns. He loves 'em when he hits; hates 'em when he misses. Of course, he knows better than to blame the gun, but he has to live with himself and can always switch to a new shotgun—right? Or perhaps he can really be fickle and have 10 favorite wingshooting buddies. Check out John's Top 10 shotguns.
The last few days at the Great American Outdoor Show in Harrisburg, Pa. were chock-a-block full of exciting seminars and a fan-favorite, the NRA Country concert with headlining artist Brantley Gilbert. See what else the show had to offer.

A couple of transmission questions

A couple of transmission questions
I am removing the guts from my old broken transmission case and putting them in my "new" transmission case. I am trying to get everything into spec, and I have a couple of questions.
1. While checking the spacer lengths for the countershaft gears, I find some of them are up to .010 shorter than spec. HOW do these spacers wear? There is no torque or movement applied to them.
2. The countershaft has movement front to back with all the gears and spacers installed. I do not have the differential back in yet,so the question is once the diff is back in and the countershaft bevel and ring gear are meshed, is that gong to take up this slack? I know the manual says not to torque the countershaft nut until everything else is in place, but I am assuming that is because the input shaft and sliding gears have to be in place so you can "lock" the transmission to torque the nut.
I need a little pro advice!!
Re: A couple of transmission questions
The .010 wear is nothing to worry about in my opinion.
The countershaft will move front to back until you get the cover/retainer bolted back on. Even though you don't torque the nut down, it still needs to be installed with shims to get an idea of the mesh on the pinion. After you get the mesh correct, and the preload on the bearings, then install the upper gears and torque the countershaft.
Re: A couple of transmission questions
Also, should any of the gears be beveled, or is that from grinding?
Re: A couple of transmission questions
Three of the countershaft gears will have a bevel on them to aid in aligning the gears when shifting. The reverse gear has no bevel because the idler has the bevel on it. As long as they are not excessive with burrs, chips or cracks, it's normal.
Re: A couple of transmission questions
Thanks for your help guys. I have to get the rear input shaft bearing ( my tranny was the old style bearing and the new case is the new style) and get my backlash set up and then hopefully I can get started on the finals.
Re: A couple of transmission questions
Now another question. My replacement trans case has a different size hole for the rear transmission shaft bearing. Mine was originally a roller bearing with a shield on both sides (1950). I assume this case uses the newer needle bearing. Does it matter as far as the shaft goes? Were both bearings the same ID?
Edit- I see the bearing change was in 1954. I also see the last two numbers of the shaft part number changed, but looking at TMs website I see the shaft is sbown as the same throught production years.
Re: A couple of transmission questions
To my knowledge, the shaft measurement did not change, just the bearing style.
Re: A couple of transmission questions
I have not been able to locate the needle bearing with an oil hole, but TM sells the factory replacement. Also, the 'tranny gasket' set from TM is good way to get all the gaskets and seals for a tranny/diff job.
The service manual has a good write up on getting the differential bearing preload right. It's worth reading, the case is the 'variable' for the shims needed, so replacing the case is not just a matter of putting it back together. Also, the ring gear and pinion (countershaft) need to mesh correctly. They are a 'matched set'.

Re: A couple of transmission questions
I have done ALOT of research on the rear input shaft bearing from this site. I am still needing a little clarification and summary...
1. I know GW had some info for a sealed replacement bearing, but AFAIK, it was only for the earlier style case/bearing (1954 and earlier ).
2. Does the bearing from TM have the oil hole or not? Apparently the one from CIH DOES NOT have an oil hole.
3. I know someone was trying a bearing similar with an oil hole, but it was 1/8 inch longer than stock. Could not find any final words on that one.
It would seem that a needle bearing riding on a shaft without an inner race would need to get as much lubrication as possible. I can hardly see the point in a bearing without an oil hole in the outer case. Thats like having a tire with no valve stem...
Edit:BW...looks like we were posting at the same time! If you read my mind, you'll find its an awfully short story...
Re: A couple of transmission questions
ok... found an update by Harold R on the rear bearing. He has 5 hours runtime on it without issues. I have sent A PM to see if he has located the part number for the bearing he used. I will post the number, unless he beats me to it!
Re: A couple of transmission questions
I have a used extra rear needle bearing. Hours of use unknown.
Re: A couple of transmission questions
The needle bearing from TM does not have an oil hole.
Re: A couple of transmission questions
I guess th question to that is " does anyone have any amount of time on this new style bearing without an oil hole?"
Re: A couple of transmission questions
The oil hole went away when the production line at The Torrington Company was bought out and shut down. You will have to use the bearing that is available.
Re: A couple of transmission questions
Any reason why the hole was done away with, or was it just a money saving production thing? Any idea if anyone other than Harold R has taken all the measurements and tried to find a suitable cross? Longevity of the new bearing? I just dont see any info like that on this site, and if it isnt on this site, I dont think I will find it anywhere....

I originally purchased one of these when my son was about 10 years old. At first I thought "good grief that much for a telescope for my child?" It turned out to be worth every penny. It's durable, has an amazing image quality and most importantly can be set up positioned and operated by a child themselves after a very small amount of training. This telescope worked so well that the Elementary school where I worked purchased four of these for use in our after school astronomy program. Aiming a telescope for a child and then letting them look at what 'you found' gets boring fast. Teaching a child to read a simple star chart and giving them the ability to find objects in the sky for themselves can become the introduction to a life long hobby. You will never regret buying this telescope, but your child may have to fight you to get it out of your hands to use for themselves......on second thought buy two. Seriously!
