Record: 22-26. Pace: 74-88. Change on last season: -2
The last time the Diamondbacks won a series at home, the stadium was still called Bank One Ball Park, the losing pitcher was Mariano Rivera, and Luis Gonzalez knocked in the winning run with a walk off bloop single. Okay, it hasn't actually been that long, but it sure was beginning to feel like it. In addition to being a chance to win only our second home series this year, it was the return of Daniel Hudson from the DL. Would the Good Guys win the series? Would Hudson have a good start? Hit the jump for all the details!
|Final - 5.27.2012
|Milwaukee Brewers
|Arizona Diamondbacks
|WP: Bryan Shaw (1 - 2)
SV: J.J. Putz (11)
LP: Jose Veras (3 - 2)
Top of the first, the Brewers tried to get something going quick, with Norichika Aoki and Ryan Braun getting back-to-back one out singles. This was Hudson's return, however, and he would not allow himself to be roughed up this early. The next batter up was George Kattaras. On a 1-2 fastball, Hudson got him to ground into a 6-4-3 double play.
Randy Wolf started the game for the Brewers today, and for the first three innings, the Diamondbacks couldn't manage much off of him. Other than a Hill double, they only got two other people on base, one on a walk, and the another on a single. Then Paul Goldschmidt came to the plate in the bottom of the fourth, with two outs. By the end of his at-bat, the home team had a one, nothing lead on a home run that ESPN reported was the longest hit at Chase this year at 471 feet. Ryan Roberts followed that up with a base hit, but true to Dback form, was promptly picked
The Brewers didn't like that much, and showed their displeasure at this turn of events. Taylor Green lead off the top of the fifth with a double. Cody Ransom comes to the plate, the recent Diamondback, singled him home to tie the game. But they weren't done there. Ransom then advanced to second on a Hudson wild pitch, and then to third on a Nyjer Morgan ground out. Cory Hart came to the plate, and took care of the fact that the game was tied. He singled, which easily brought home Ransom. Aoki K'd to end the inning, but the damage was done.
This was the end of Hudson's night, but it was a very solid return from injury. Other than fifth, he only gave up three hits and a walk. It was a little short, but that's to be expected after a more than a month break.
After the Diamondbacks only managed a Bloomquist single in the bottom of the fifth, Gibson called on Mike Zagurski to pitch in the sixth. If anyone can explain this to me, I'll be eternally grateful. Moving on, Zagurski showed once again why he should never be used for anything other than mop up work where the game is out of hand either
He managed to get one out on a fly out to Chris Young, but that was the only out he got today. He then proceeded to give up two walks, an RBI double, and another walk to load the bases. With the score now 3-1, Gibby had seen enough, and called in Shaw to put out the fire. And put out the fire, he did. One pitch, and he got a 6-2-3 double play, the third the team had recorded up to that point.
In the bottom of the sixth, the offense finally woke up. Aaron Hill lead off with a double, Jason Kubel drove him in with a single, Goldy reached on an error, Ryan Roberts got an RBI single, and Henry Blanco got another to drive in what turned out to be the winning run.
That was pretty much it for either team, with both of them only managing one baserunner each from there on. J. J. Putz came in for a save that could have used a bit more Easy Button, but it was pretty good, nonetheless.

BOULDER, Colo. (AP) - Ashley Brunner had 15 points and 11 rebounds to lead No. 4 seed South Carolina to a 74-52 victory over South Dakota State in the opening round of the NCAA tournament on Saturday.
The Gamecocks (25-7), who won a school-record 11 Southeastern Conference games this season, used their superior athleticism and stout defense to make quick work of the 13th-seeded Jackrabbits (25-8), the Summit League regular season and tournament champs.
They'll face Colorado or Kansas on Monday in their quest to reach the round of 16 for the second straight year under coach Dawn Staley, who led Virginia to three Final Fours as a player.

Several years ago, I was delighted by a rumor that Tibetan lama Mingyur Rinpoche was a great fan of the movie Matrix -- and that he had, at some point, made an explicit comparison between the portrayal (in the stopping-the-bullets scene) of Neo's "enlightenment" and the first Bodhisattva Bhumi (in which one manifests a direct realization of emptiness).
So was doubly-delighted to stumble upon this account of someone who was actually there in person, and so could confirm this rumor as fact:
"Mingyur Rinpoche, a rising star of the exile-born lamas (and now my main meditation teacher), offered very helpful elaborations on the practice, and also gave the transmission of the ancient, ear-whispered commentaries on the Matrix ("When Neo sees the electricity and stops the bullets, that's a very good description of arriving at the first Bhumi")."
(Maybe this is the real solution to the gun-control issue? Kidding .... )
Anyway, in the referenced scene, Neo-qua-Sleeping-Beauty, after having pricked his finger on a samsaric spindle (or was it having his heart pierced by a half-dozen bullets?) is -- after the destined one-hundred seconds -- brought out of his death-sleep by the kiss of a handsome princess.
Thus resurrected, he quite literally "sees through" the illusion of the matrix: what used to appear as solid is revealed as shimmering light; what previously appeared as the angular, three-dimensional hallway now pulses in warp-speed fashion; what used to be impossibly difficult (fighting the agents) is suddenly effortless. And then, having fully realized his not-two-ness with all-that-is, he fearlessly dives into and merges with the body of his arch-nemesis -- Agent Smith -- fully obliterating/liberating that dis-eased energy, as it were, "from within."
~ * ~
Interlude: The Physics Of Light
A cliff-notes version of how physicists talk about "light" --
* Colloquially, the word "light" points to a range of electromagnetic radiation that can be detected by the human eye.
* Electromagnetic energy is currently believed -- by a majority of physicists -- to have a paradoxical dual nature, as both particle and wave: Described classically, it results from electric and magnetic fields which propagate through space, forming electromagnetic waves. In terms of quantum mechanics, light consists of "photons" -- particles or packets (discrete quanta) of energy -- which move at the speed of light.
* The "speed of light" -- which in Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity is held to be a constant (c) -- is 186,282 miles per second.
* Einstein's famous formula -- E=mc-2 -- describes the transformation of energy (e) into mass (m) -- i.e. points to their fundamental equivalence, in relation to the speed of light.
* Implications of this formula include: As the velocity of a material object approaches the speed of light, its mass becomes infinite, i.e. infinite energy is required for it to actually reach the speed of light. As a result, no material object is able to accelerate to the speed of light. The term "Singularity" points to this seeming barrier of the speed of light.
* As velocity increases toward the speed of light, time and space "distort" -- as they adjust to keep the speed of light constant. So for instance, in what is known as "time dilation," the faster you go, the more time seems to slow down; and -- the spatial equivalent -- moving objects appear (from an external perspective) to shrink.
* However: the mathematics of the Theory of Relativity does not exclude the possibility of supra-light speeds, under special circumstances. For instance: the existence of particles (tachyons) that travel faster than light at all times -- rather than having to accelerate from lesser speeds to reach the speed of light.
* Very interesting: if we were to imagine a spaceship traveling at supra-light speeds (via say, the Starship Enterprise's warp-drive -- its faster-than-light propulsion system): as this spaceship accelerates -- moves faster and faster at supra-light speeds -- it would actually lose more and more mass, i.e. become lighter and lighter, until at infinite velocity, its mass would become zero. [In other words, at supra-light speeds -- beyond the Singularity -- the relationship between velocity and mass is the inverse of what it is at less-than-light-speeds.]
~ * ~
Back to Neo and Mingyur Rinpoche. Here Rinpoche hints at what a direct realization of emptiness/impermanence (i.e. the first Bhumi) offers, en route to eventually "realizing that death is not real" -- i.e. becoming established in/as the Unborn, Dharmakaya, Buddha-Nature.
Is the first Bhumi -- the direct realization of emptiness -- perhaps something akin to a metaphoric Singularity? Somehow, we reach the speed of light .... But how would this be possible, since -- according to the laws of physics -- our mass would have to become infinite?

10 Reasons You Should Stop Being a Sports Fan
Why wear what everyone else is wearing? You have to be different and cool. You want to stand out in the crowd and let everyone know that you set the trends.
You attend games in a suit, in the lower sections, and spend more time talking to a client or on your cell phone.
Real fans hate you. You get the good company seats, show up whenever, and pay more attention to selling your shit service to a client than to the incoming line drive at your head.
You are more interested in the food selection than what's going on in the game.
Your typical game day attire consists of sweatpants or basketball shorts so that your elastic waistband can expand as your gorge on your third sausage and pepper sandwich. Everytime a vendor is in your section, you quickly scan what they're selling and decide whether or not you want to pay $7 for another hot pretzel. You do, of course.
You spend the entire game bitching about the food prices, how boring the game is, or anticipating what you're plans are after the game.
You're the type of person that's only happy when you're miserable. Nothing makes you happy so you take it upon yourself to let everyone know that you're unhappy.
You come late, leave early.
You know what time the game starts, yet you still show up an hour into the game. After a while, you decide to head home before the game is even over and it doesn't matter if it's a close score. You've got to beat the traffic! Surely worth the $90 ticket.
You speak loud enough so you think the people around you will believe you're some sort of expert. And you also look around after each shitty joke.
You know it all. You bring three friends with lesser knowledge of the game and spout obvious statistics to make yourself sound smarter. You want everyone in your section to think of you as some sort of guru, so you make sure to raise your voice when answering an inane question from one of your friends.
You bring a baby/young kids to a division rivalry game.
You decide to bring a baby/young kids to an environment that's going to be hostile, yet you're still appalled when the expletives fly. You try to be a hero to your kids and stand up and tell those around you to keep the language clean because there's kids around. You quickly sit down after the fourth beer stains your "World's Best Daddy" t-shirt.
You get more animated during the Kiss Cam or t-shirt toss in-between play.
Your team is winning or needs some vocal support from the crowd, but you decide to save your energy when the teams interns shoot t-shirts into the crowd or when you finally notice you've been located on the Kiss Cam, and you're sitting next to Joe Tough Guy and Willie Old Dude.
You show up to the game just for the gameday promotion.
You've got the Beanie Baby collection to show for it.
You grow balls when the big, opposing athlete is 100 feet away.
Tough guy when an opposing player is on the field/court/ice and you're sitting up in the stands, protected by many seats and security guards. While you're dining on wings at the local Hooters afterwards and said opposing athlete shows up for a post-game meal, your anus tightens quicker than Joan Rivers' face.

Great, quick story: I'm covering the BC Icemen of the UHL for the SUNY-B newspaper and they play the Flint Generals in the playoffs. A brawl breaks out at the end of the game, which Flint won handily, 10-2 or something, and the fans go nuts. I'm sitting in the crowd with my friends yelling and screaming with them at the goons on the Generals (namely their goalie, who wanted no piece of the Icemen's). Remaining time gets wiped out, the Generals staff walks off to a shower of beer and popcorn (with the trainer wearing a popcorn bucket on his head for defense). I go down and do postgame locker room interviews. I walk over to the Generals goalie and my first question is 'not a big fighter, huh?' As he jumped up to get in my face the coach came in so he sat back down. I laughed and joined the 'scrum' around the coach. Ah, to be young and stupid ...

Where do you lump in the douchebags who come to the game and spend the entire thing talking loudly behind you about everything but the damned game? I swear, I encounter that at least once every six Hitmen games, and one of these days I'm gonna throw my pizza wrapper at them.
And I'm pretty sure when I have kids, they're going to hear enough swearing from me during division games on TV that if I ever took them to the game, they'd be entirely unfazed. I know when I was a baby, during the height of the Battle of Alberta, I quickly became oblivious to any and all shouting from my dad during hockey games.
- August 4, 2008 at 1:30 AM
- Doogie2K said...
Oh, my mom just pointed one out to me I forgot from Hitmen games: parents who check their kids at the game and let them run amok, up and down the aisles. Now, I don't mind letting them through to high-five the players on the way on and off the ice at the beginning and end of each period, but come on. This isn't a bloody playground; the fact you want to chat with your friends in peace does not mean that your kids can spend three periods piss-assing around, sitting in every unoccupied seat in the section, shrieking loud enough to be heard in the press box, and generally making it difficult for me and everyone else in the lower bowl to enjoy the damned game.

Sean and Doogie, you have adequately describe almost all of my experiences here in Cincinnati -- at the Gardens, the US Bank Arena, Riverfront Stadium and Great American Ballpark.
I would also add the shitheads who have to walk up and down the aisles several times during a game. It could be either baseball or Hockey, doesn't matter. And to think that those fucks look at me queer when I tell them to sit their shit down.

4:48 am Apr 14 - by Megan Reilly
On January 18, 2012, the Internet went dark in protest of SOPA, the Stop Online Piracy Act. The participating websites were not necessarily supporting online piracy; in fact, most of them currently support anti-piracy legislation. What many creators on the Internet wanted lawmakers to see on January 18th was that the laws being pushed through did more harm in their current state than good in the grand scheme of Internet legislation.
The good news is that it worked. Both SOPA and the less talked about PIPA (Protect IP Act) have been tabled for now.
The bad news is that the fight for effective Internet legislation is far from over.
Fresh from committee, the Protecting Children from Internet Pornographers Act appears to be, at first glance, an effective way to make the Internet safer for America's youth. The bill tightens up all sorts of problems with current child-protection legislation by prohibiting people from knowingly contributing funds to child pornographers, prohibiting harassment of child witnesses, amending current sentencing related to child pornography, and requiring all ISPs (Internet Service Providers) to hold Internet browsing information of all customers.
Wait. What was that last part?
All Internet Service Providers will be required, by law, to hold all of your temporarily assigned network addresses for 18 months (this is according to the summary by the Library of Congress; the bill itself states one year) at a time.
While most of the bill does great things to protect children, this section has many people worried about the future of their personal online information. The bill states that it is the "Sense of Congress" (or the intent and desire of Congress) "to encourage electronic communication service providers to give prompt notice to their customers in the event of a breach of the data retained" and "that records retained...should be stored securely to protect customer privacy and prevent against breaches of the records."
It is a bit nerve-wracking to think that ISPs are only provided, by the bill, 180 days to develop a system to retain and protect our information, especially since it is only encouraged (see quote above) that we, as consumers, are promptly informed of any kind of breach. On top of that, the Attorney General has a full two years after the enactment of this bill to complete a study of how much these changes cost ISPs, meaning that in that time customer costs could potentially increase beyond what the ISPs actually lose.
On top of this, one section of the bill ensures that there can be "no cause of action against a provider disclosing information under this chapter" (Section 5). According to the summary provided to citizens by the Library of Congress, this goes so far as to bar any action against a provider for keeping and protecting a customer's information. This could mean that, in the event of a security breach, customers who have their information stolen—such as which banking website they use or their online identity—would be unable to take action against the provider for having inadequate security measures. That is because, according to the summary, the next section "makes a good faith reliance on the requirement to retain records a complete defense to a civil action." In other words, it allows ISPs to use only the government's trust that the information will be retained and stored securely as their defense against any legal action.
Like SOPA and PIPA, the focus of the bill is not what people are nervous about, and the majority of the reasoning makes sense. People do not fear the bill itself, but they instead worry about the wording and how the security measures are presented. How will this be interpreted in the future? The bill currently only allows for a subpoena of information in cases investigating unregistered sex offenders, but what kind of precedent does this kind of surveillance set? Will it be the ISPs or the customers who are made to bear the financial burden of setting up these new storage and security measures? What does the future of the Internet really hold if these levels of surveillance are the norm?
We definitely need more protection for the children this bill begins to address, but responsible, reasonable Internet legislation is necessary to deal with every kind of Internet crime, especially when the privacy of all online Americans is at stake.

I make this question because I'd like to have an explicit example of moduli space. First of all, we consider $G=SL(2,\mathbb{C})$ and $X$ a compact Riemann surface with genus $2$. So we can build $M^2$: the moduli space of principal stable $SL(2)$-bundles on $X$. In order to do this, I cite this answer http://math.stackexchange.com/questions/518746/principal-stable-sl2-bundles-on-a-genus-2-compact-riemann-surface, in order to have a model of principal $SL(2)$-bundle on $X$. Now, how can I build ''with hands'' the moduli space $M^2$?

The United States had slowly but surely been coming back into the Gold Cup Final against Mexico between Pablo Barrera's second goal and the 76th minute, but they're now in some serious trouble and there appears to be no way back. Giovani dos Santos has been brilliant all night for El Tri, but in classic Gio fashion, has missed all of his shots just inches wide. Until now.
Mexico now leads by a score of 4-2, thanks to an absolutely unbelievable chip goal by dos Santos. With just barely over 10 minutes to play, that goal is almost certainly the dagger, and Mexico should be walking away from this one as Gold Cup champions.
Tim Howard and the United States defense gifted the opportunity to Gio, as they desperately flailed around out of position in an attempt to clear the ball. Howard went down after the ball but completely missed as Gio dribbled away. Still, he had a lot of traffic to deal with, so instead of playing a conventional shot, he hit a chip towards the far post. He hit the far upper 90 so perfectly that, despite the presence of defenders on the line, they had no chance to clear the ball as it sailed into the back of the net.

The club's Artistic Director and leader of the Ronnie Scott's Allstars, James Pearson tells all.
Located in the heart of London's Soho district and founded in 1959, Ronnie Scott's is arguably the most famous Jazz Club in the world. As well as playing host to the world's best jazz musicians, the club was the venue chosen by The Who for the premiere Pete Townshend's Rock Opera 'Tommy', as well as being the location of Jimi Hendrix's last gig.
Countless jazz fans and musicians have enjoyed and praised the sound of the famed Ronnie Scott's handcrafted Yamaha CF6 house piano, which is heard regularly on the radio broadcasts from the club. We are often asked about the piano so we decided to catch up with the club's Artistic Director, James Pearson to ask him about his relationship with the famous CF6
"I love this piano! It's the first Yamaha CF6 we've had at Ronnie's, this particular model was shipped over from Hamburg and prepared to my specifications. I asked the Yamaha technicians to prepare the treble to be a softer tone, which works especially well with the acoustics and the amplification system at the club."
James is clearly a big CF6 fan, "This piano is truly one of the most durable instruments I have ever encountered. It gets played most days by at least three different pianists and is regularly moved around the stage, which would affect many other pianos. I tend to be very fussy about the piano's action and sound, so we normally have it tuned and regulated every day to ensure it's in absolutely top condition. I have a routine with the piano; when I arrive at the club each day I generally practice some classical pieces – especially Bach and Rachmaninov – this helps me to really assess and appreciate the instrument's sonic range. I recorded my 'Swing the Club' trio album on an S6 – it records brilliantly, and the CF6 is definitely a big step up from that. On the record it actually sounds like a much bigger piano, the bass is so strong. More recently we also recorded the new 'Ronnie Scott's Allstars' album on this one."
The Ronnie's CF6 should soon acquire a legendary status amongst pianists and fans, the latest model having been played by thousands of discerning and highly demanding artists. The list of recent players reads like a who's who of the jazz world and includes Jamie Cullum, Jason Rebello, Gwilym Simcock, Gareth Williams, Georgie Fame, Robert Glasper, Neil Cowley, Hiromi, John Taylor, Julian Joseph and even Wynton Marsalis.
James sums up his thoughts and gives an insight into his day-to-day work at the club, "As the club's Artistic Director I often have to deal with a wide range of piano demands from pianists. This is normal because, curiously, many venues still do not have good pianos. In London we are lucky, Ronnie's now has a brand new CF6 and the 606 Jazz Club has an S6. Quite often we receive advance notification of technical requirements; some artists request Steinway, although they generally end up on CF6 as it's so good. If they want something bigger we'll put in the new Yamaha CFX. When Michel Legrand performed here last year he loved the CFX so much he said it was an 'inspirational' instrument and that he might compose another masterpiece on it."

Hey ya'll. Ok, here's the story, I'll try to make it short. I'm 32 years old, lived in Oregon and Washington until I was 10, lived at a rodeo arena. So at a very young age, I was on a horse or a tractor. I can't remember brand or anything, but it was a big tractor. Fast forward to 1986, I'm living in NY, farming and horses has went out the window, somehow I'm being turned into a city boy. Fast forward again to 2000, I move with my (now) ex-wife to SC. I realize very quickly that I am still a country boy (redneck) from way back. Fast forward one more time to 2002, I move with my current wife to a small community named Jackson SC. 2800 Sq Ft. house on 4.79 acres. The gentleman I bought the house from lives back across the field, and has a newere FWD Kubota, which I quickly take over. One more fast forward....2004, that gentleman moves, taking his Kubota with him, so I am again tractor-less. 3.5 acre field in the front that I do nothing with now because of no way to do anything with it. OK, I lied, one more fast forward. Fast forward to last week. I buy a 1956 Lo-Boy Cub. Body in great shape, surface rust only, runs, original paperwork, manuals, etc., nothing missing, with a 22 mower, a spring harrow, a bottom plow, and a disc harrow for $1500. I am now in love with tractors, and want to buy a 55 Lo-Boy since that was first year production. Anywho...glad to be a part of the forum, I'm also a regional leader for the SC chapter of fordtruckworld.com so anyone who has a Ford truck, come on over, we have a blast. Glad to be here, hope I can help those who need it, and hope I can get help when I need it.

Mangia Italiano is a hip Italian place that takes up a double storefront along Grand in the Tower Grove neighborhood. They only list 7 taps on the menu, but in reality have about that amount on each side of the bar- 3 Schlafly, 3 New Belgium (including a Lips of Faith), Guinness, Smithwicks, and a few others. The bottle list is split into domestics and imports, and along with the standards, there are a few nice surprises. The atmosphere is 'hipster Italian', the food is very good, the bar is big for the space, and the patrons are a mixed bunch. You'll feel comfortable here no matter what you're wearing. Basically, most Italian restaurants have bad/no beer lists, so if you want both good Italian food and a decent beer, come here.

Mangia Italiano is a restaurant located on Grand Ave on the southwest side of the city. There is metered parking on the surrounding streets as well as a small metered parking lot next to the place.
There is a small patio out front, and the inside is divided into two sections. The bar is split in half by a wall (one side is smoking the other non) and has taps on either side. Table seating takes up the rest of the space. The atmosphere is a lot of red hues and wood, with an interesting graffiti-inspired decor. Large chalkboards show the beers and live music that is scheduled.
The beer list is pretty good. There are around 12 beers on tap from the likes of New Belgium, Schlafly and others. There are also around 25 different bottles from brewers like Anchor, North Coast and New Belgium domestically. As for imports I saw Unibroue, Eggenberg Samichlaus, Delirium and a few of the usuals.
Service was good on a weekday early lunch. The bartender was happy to chat about the beers they had available and was kind enough to loan me a dollar in change as I had no cash for the meters.
I tried the lunch buffet and it was more or less average. Salad, pizza and pasta/meatballs were not bad and not great.
Overall this is a nice little restaurant in a nice little part of the city.

Stopped by for a early valentines with the wife.
I was suprised to see that there was an actual beer menu that was seperate from the wine menu.
Lots of good beers available, which go well the exceptional italian food available here. I had the lasagna, it was good, but it was so hot that I had to wait for it to cool so I wouldn't burn myself.
The wife had a seafood risotto and it turned out very well. Would have been better with some provel cheese melted on top.
A great place to go and just hang out as well. Free wi-fi allows you to drink and review at the same time!

I really like this place, excellent food (which means something in St. Louis, we have no shortage of top-notch Italian places), great service, good prices and enough good beer to keep a beer geeks happy.
They've got somewhere between 25-30 beers, 7 or 8 on tap and all but three of those are Micros or imports. Beers are kept a little too cold, but that helps keep em fresh, so I can deal with that. Everything seemed fresh and there were plenty of choices available for pairing with dinner.
Atmosphere is great on weeknights, when it's not too crowded. On weekends, it can get a bit crazy and smoky.
All in all a real nice place.

Went here for the *farewell to Falstaff* party. Mouth dropped when I saw the beers check their website for a complete beer listing that is pretty impressive for a pub in AB's backyard (only a couple macros in bottles). Small bar and eating area, but very clean and the people are extremely friendly - very casual and comfortable. Bar could sit around 12, eating area for perhaps 30. Outside sitting at 4 tables also an option. Note: Dave the bartender said they worked to improve it within the last 2 years, so it may be a little nicer than when the first two reviews were made in 2003.
Average to somewhat pricey for beer (pints start at $4, up to $7 for the Belgium bottles. Pizza was $8 for a dinner plate size pie thin crust and well prepared.
This one made my to-do list, I will return with the wife-zilla and friends for dinner and drinks.

Thankyou maxpower, for the review on Mangia Italian. I love Italian food but combined with beer Wow. I travel through St. Louis once a year and usually just push on to Kansas City, but this time I stopped and had lunch and dinner. For lunch I had the Isabella pizza and the Schlafly pale ale. I have never been a big fan of Schlafly beers but it was very good, maybe the food and atmosphere.
For dinner I tried the Delirium Tremens beer, this was my first time and it was a little sweet for the Lasagna.I had two of these, I did not know about the high abv..
Mangia has around 30 beers and 7 on tap. The food was great as was the service and atmosphere, I will be back again.

Eat Italian is a great place for Italian food, the beer list is not bad either, they have a good selection of bottles and on brews on tap, last time there I was surprised to have Delirium Tremens on tap (also had a bottle of Hercule Stout for dessert). The restaurant is small yet has a great atmosphere, not really family friendly, I have yet to see anyone under 21. The food is always awesome, a great place to hangout and down a few, I have never been disappointed, parking can be a challenge sometimes in the small lot or on the street.

Continuing our fascinating series (sic) of Amazon Web Services related latency measurements…we've already looked at the round trip time between the UK and the US vs the EU region, so now our attention has turned to the latency between availability zones (AZs) in the EU region.
The network latency between AZs is critical to designing and implementing fault tolerant applications on AWS, as the design assumption is that synchronous transactional data replication is always feasible, and you can seamless fail over from one Relational Database Node (RDS) node to another "standby" replica in another AZ etc. So we thought we'd measure it!
One of my colleagues collected some measurements between 4 x Linux t1.micro instances (2 running apache & 2 running http-ping scripts) between EU zones. The scripts were scheduled to run every 5 mins (via cron) with each executing 20 x http-ping requests and returning the average response time in milliseconds. We also measured the latency of the http-ping requests via both the private and public addresses of the corresponding web server.
As a control measure, we also measured the average latency for "localhost" to respond, to allow us to eliminate the web server response time from the measurements. This worked out to be as follows:
- Roundtrip to localhost – round-trip min/avg/max = 0.9/1.0/1.3 ms
- Roundtrip to a public IP in the same AZ – round-trip min/avg/max = 1.3/1.4/2.7 ms
And here are the results of measurements across the AZs – first for the private IP addresses (click the image to view in full size):
…and for the public IP addresses:
So in summary, the roundtrip between AZs using public IP addresses works out to be about 4ms minimum, and once you take off the minimum 1.3ms experienced between public IPs in the same AZ, and dividing by 2 (as it's a roundtrip), then the latency between AZs in the EU region works out to be about 1.35ms minimum. Pretty quick really…

BERLIN (AP) -- Bayern Munich has all but conceded defeat in the Bundesliga title race after falling seven points behind defending champion Borussia Dortmund.
Bayern sporting director Christian Nerlinger says, "We don't need to talk about the title anymore. I'm not writing off the title, but it's nothing to concern us now."
Bayern lost 2-0 at Bayer Leverkusen on Saturday, before Dortmund beat Mainz 2-1 to stretch its lead in the standings with its eighth consecutive win -- a club record.
Dortmund is 18 games unbeaten, and both sides have 10 games left to play.
Dortmund coach Juergen Klopp says he doesn't know if the seven point gap will be decisive.

README file
<convention> An introduction traditionally included in the top-level directory of a Unix source distribution, containing a pointer to more detailed documentation, credits, miscellaneous revision history, notes, etc. The file may be named README, or READ.ME, or rarely ReadMe or readme.txt or some other variant.
In the Macintosh and IBM PC worlds, software is not usually distributed in source form, and the README is more likely to contain user-oriented material like last-minute documentation changes, error workarounds, and restrictions.
The README convention probably follows the famous scene in Lewis Carroll's "Alice's Adventures In Wonderland" in which Alice confronts magic munchies labelled "Eat Me" and "Drink Me".

Exhaust Lift
I have seen Jim Becker's article about the exhaust lift so maybe he or someone else can offer some suggestions about renewing the mating surface on the pressure valve "cup". Since it is recessed, I don't know how or if I can dress it well enough to hold pressure. What kind of pressures or tolerances are involved? Does anyone have any experiences with the high heat epoxies (1000F+)? Thanks!
So many tractors, so little time......
Most of the time, you can get them "flat enough" by giving it a good scraping with the tip of a file. If it is too rough, you may need to stick it in a milling machine and clean it up with an end mill. But that is unlikely. You should be able to get the valve (the flapper) pretty flat so you are only left with the unevenness of one part.
I have my doubts about any epoxy holding up there. For one, the temperature is pertty high for any epoxy. For another, the valve body probably has enough rust to make adhesion pretty doubtful as well.

My husband and I were both Limo Drivers. I worked the late shift. I was sound asleep, when the phone kept persistantly ringing off the hook. I grabbed the phone with the intention of yelling at the person on the other end for waking me. Before I got the chance, My husband obviously very upset about something told me to hurry and turn on the TV, Something horrible was happening, and all he knew was that everyone was being told to evacute Logan Airport immeadiately. (He had just dropped off a passenger) I tuned in just before Flight 175 hit the 2nd tower! I suddenly felt an emotion I had never experienced before! I felt fear like I had never known! I grew up in New York, watched the towers being built, and spent time there with my Aunt at work. It took my husband 3 hrs to get home that day. When he finally arrived, we spent the remainder of the day holding eaching other, crying,and watching the events unfold, and like everyone that horrible day sought answers as to why and how this could happen, thankful that we still had each other, and that our children were safe, yet tremendous sadness for those who were lost. We through our job, were aquainted with some of the passengers on both flights. Now, 10 years later, every image I see, brings back the same sadness and fear I felt that day. My heart goes out to all those who lost their lives that day, and to the loved ones they left behind. We will never forget!

À l'approche de la date fatidique, meilleurs voeux aux familles éprouvées lors de ces malheureux événements ...
2 years, 12 months
2 years, 12 months
3 years
It has been a decade since one of the most tragic events in American history
So many of us back, nothing we could do, as we watched in horror the events of that one unforgettable day
One deranged man, took it upon himself, to make sure death and destruction, the whole world would see
The plan, he inniuated, he did this awful act with no thought and without delay.
Almost three thousand were lost that day, these innocent souls never knew the way they would serve
They gave the ultimate, some dying so fast, they never realized, they gave their lives, but not in vain
As all this was going on we just couldn't believe someone would have this kind of nerve
The pain and anguish that was felt, tears would fall, just like an unending rain.
When the tragedy occurred, it made us realize, just how vulnerable, we really were
Yes at the time we were weak, but their deaths, they just made us more determined and strong
Those that would serve, from this insane man, they could not deter
What happened that day was insane an very wrong.
Imprinted on history and time are the feelings and the emotions of those who served
The anguish, the anticipation of death, and the holes left in the hearts of loved ones
Those that served, from the duty fate handed them, they did not serve
Their deaths on the shoulders of us all it weighed a ton.
Those who served, gave their lives, by no choice of their own
But their deaths, made us more aware, aware of the evils that in this world exist
From this terrible tragedy in 2001, we have only got stronger and grown
Making us realize radicals and those that want to hurt us truly exist.
Those who served, their grave would become known as ground zero
And now on the grave site, we now have the Tower of Freedom
A way to honor those who served, they will forever be our heroes
So forever we will honor those who served and paid such a tremendous sum.

MomentumOptionsTrading.com Midday Update for 4/10/2014
BBBY Takes a Bath/ Profit Alert (KOG)!!!
12:20pm (EST)
Shares of Bed Bath & Beyond (BBBY, $63.75, down $4.16) are down 6% today after the company posted weaker-than-expected earnings results and lowered its outlook for the current quarter.
Bed Bath & Beyond matched Wall Street's $1.60 a share target but they missed on revenue of $3.2 billion versus expectations for $3.22 billion as same-store-sales rose just 1.7%.
For the current quarter, the company forecasted earnings of $0.92-$0.96 a share versus the suit-and-ties calls for $1.04 a share.
Here were our thoughts on a possible earnings trade from our Weekly Wrap (quotes from 4/4/14):
"Bed Bath & Beyond (BBBY, $69.22, down $0.58)
April 72.50 calls (BBBY140519C00072500, $0.80, down $0.20)
April 67.50 puts (BBBY140419P00067500, $1.25, up $0.20)
Thoughts: Shares could move 10% or more on earnings and the trend feels lower." (END)
We should have expanded our research a little more as the one in "our town" was recently shut down. The company has been a Wall Street darling for years but competition in the space has picked up, especially online.
We listed both calls as puts as a possible strangle option trade for protection in case the company might have matched or beat expectations.
The April 67.50 puts (BBBY140419P00067500, $3.50, up $1.90) were at $1.60 ahead of Wednesday's close and are up over 120% on the drop below $65.
The April 72.50 calls (BBBY140519C00072500, $0.03, down $0.37) were at 40 cents going into yesterday's close and are naturally getting crushed.
Together, these options could have been purchased for $2 and at current levels the trade would have made 75% had we pulled the trigger yesterday.
We often mention earnings trades can be fun and difficult to trade because there are numerous factors involved in determining if shares are going to rally or pull a Tom Petty (Breakdown). However, this one may have been a Captain Obvious as Bed Bath & Beyond continues to struggle.
This week's bigger earnings announcements come tomorrow as JPMorgan Chase (JPM, $58.49, down $0.78) and Wells Fargo (WFC, $48.54, down $0.56) are scheduled to release their results.
The bulls need a solid report from both to end the week on a strong note as their is weakness today.
We have done well navigating the choppy waters as we have 4 current trades at or near triple-digit gains. We haven't purchased too many put options this year (or last) but we wanted some protection last week. The stock we picked was an old short favorite of ours and continues to break down like a rented mule so feel comfortable holding the position.
The other trades are bullish option positions on stocks at or near 52-week highs. The knuckleheads that say it's been a stock picker's market have been correct as these stocks have stayed under Wall Street's radar.
We have raised our stops and have made a few of them Hard Stops in case there is further weakness this afternoon but we are still expecting the bulls to push new highs this month, possibly as early as next week.
As we make the turn, the Dow is down 143 points to 16,293 while the S&P 500 is lower by 23 points to 1,848. The Nasdaq is getting spanked for 98 points to 4,085 and the Russell 2000 is off a double-deuce (22 points) to 1,137. The VIX is at 14.65, up 0.83.
Subscribers, check the Members Area for the current updates and stay close to your computer and mobile devices as we could have additional Trade Alerts into the close. We could also have New Trades for our Weekly Wrap as well.

To borrow a line from the motion picture Field of Dreams, "If you build it, they will come..."
No more true and appropriate words can be uttered this week.
A project of about five years in the making, the Summit Bechtel Reserve will finally welcome the first National Jamboree for the Boy Scouts of America, beginning today.
The high adventure camp will draw an estimated 40,000 scouts from across the United States to the hills of southern West Virginia.
In our humble opinion, their lives will never be the same.
Taking in the majestic beauty of our area, combined with the fun, excitement and challenges the scouts will face — it will be a positive life-changing experience they'll not soon forget.
It will also be a big 10 days for the people of our region, and it will also be an adjustment and a challenge for those living in the area.
Thousands of scouts and volunteers will pour out over a nine-county area working on various community service projects that will leave a long-lasting effect on our towns and parks.
With the Summit being a permanent site for high adventure, the benefits of hosting the Scouts will be felt for many generations, and won't be regulated to just a few days every four years. It will host a variety of events annually for years to come.
In fact, in 2019, the World Jamboree is also scheduled to come to the United States — Fayette County specifically.
We know that West Virginia is a perfect place to hold a Scout Jamboree. We're grateful the BSA agreed, choosing West Virginia over hundreds of applicants.
Area businesses will benefit, with travelers coming here and filling hotel rooms, their gas tanks, while also filling their bellies at area restaurants.
It's a welcome boon to our region.
Our hope is that the visitors, many whom may be visiting West Virginia for the first time, experience the warmth and hospitality for which we are known.
So if you see an opportunity, greet someone with a smile, let them in your lane while waiting in traffic and be a blessing to a family that has chosen West Virginia as their vacation destination.
Welcome to Wild and Wonderful, "Almost Heaven" West Virginia, Boy Scouts!
Enjoy your stay!

A pint at Boston's Bistro and Pub on 3/25/13
Red-copper with a bit of chill haze. Decent off-white head with medium lacing. Aroma has elements of caramel, pine, and a bit of honey. Nice balance between the malty sweetness and slightly pine flavors from the hops. Medium to medium heavy body. Low carbonation. While hoppier than most Irish Reds, the malt shines with this one.

4/5 rDev +18.3%
The bottle proudly states brewed and bottled by Ohio Brewing. This one pours a deep amber red color, with a light tan head. Fine even speckled lacing surrounds the pint glass. Aromatics provided herbal/slightly earthy hops with a caramel malt profile. Flavor has nice cereal grains with hints of caramel and malts. Moderate earthy bitterness with a touch of pungent hops. Mouthfeel is medium bodied not too cloying in anyway just a really nice version of a bigger Irish Red ale.

12 ounce bottle, label says this version is brewed at Rust Belt Brewing in Youngstown. Served in a Great Lakes goblet, the beer pours a dark ruby red color with about an inch light tan head. Head retention and lacing are both decent enough. The brew smells like toasted malt and some dark fruit. It's a nice but light aroma. It tastes like toasted malt, nuts, caramel malt, and a bit of dark fruit. Mouthfeel/body is medium, it's slick and coating with low/moderate carbonation. I think it's an OK brew, worth a try if you can get a single bottle but I wouldn't buy a sixer of this. $1.90 a single bottle.

12oz bottle poured into a snifter. Pours a dark amber, slight haze but tons of light getting though; decent off-white which fades, but nice retention and lacing; great color. Lots of malts up front. I'm also picking up a good amount of caramel, toffee, chocolate and some dark fruits. Flavors are very clean and there's an enjoyable nuttiness to this one. More caramel and toffee in the flavors. I'm also tasting a touch of corn. There's a subtle bitterness and a nice sweetness as well, making it bittersweet. Mouthfeel is really nice; right amount of carbonation, slightly prickly, smooth. Feels like it's on the lighter side of medium-bodied. Alcohol goes unnoticed. Very easy drinking. Clean beer.
I really like this.. it's a good example of the style. They stay true to the style, and amped up the ABV.

2.98/5 rDev -11.8%
Pours a dark caramel with an off white cream-colored head. Delicate lacing, but only slight amounts.
Mouthfeel is rich and lightly carbonated. Good so far.
Aroma is nutty and malty. Unfortunately, taste is off from what I'd expect of an Irish red ale. Resembles a Bock to me. Rich sweet malts with a strong sour aftertaste. Not sure what the "double" refers to, since it seems within the range of a regular Irish red.
Can't say I'd buy this again. Too sour, not very complex.

Shared with areich6 thanks to tony for this bottle
A- Pours really red/amber so it passes that test
S- Not getting a lot off this beer, some malt I guess but not a great smell here
T- Not awesome, malty with very little hops.
M- Kind of smooth I guess, Not a lot of carbonation. I suppose this is the best part of the beer
O- The mouthfeel being the best part is like saying you're the best hitter on the cubs, not very impressive

4.05/5 rDev +19.8%
Served from the bottle into a pint glass
A- Poured a rich cherry red color with soapy off-white head that left no lace
S- Caramel, toffee, chocolate, vanilla, and biscuit aroma. Very malty. Aroma was pretty complex, but the aroma went away in less than a minute.
T- Big rich caramel and toffee, vanilla notes, biscuit, slightly chocolatey, and juicy fruity undertones. Some spicy hop character with some nice but not anyway overpowering bitterness.
M- Soft mouthfeel and pretty full bodied, very smooth, creamy, and drinkable.
O- Ohio Brewing Company does a really good job with Irish Red Ales, this one and their Cardinal Red are some of the best of the style I have had.

3.78/5 rDev +11.8%
This beer was served out of a 12oz. bottle dispensed into a glass....
Presentation - Very simple yet effective and well put together label.
Appearance - Pours out a deep amber color with a 1 finger tan foam head that dissipates into a nice foam ring.
Smell - Smells of sweet caramel malts with a hint of hops.
Taste - Taste of a biscuity malt with alot more hop bitterness than I expected.
Mouthfeel - Medium bodied with not much carbonation.
Drinkability - Hops and bitterness kind of overpower the flavor of this beer. A good offering but I could only see drinking a few of these.
I enjoyed this and would try again especially since it is brewed in my home town of Akron, OH!

Enjoying with my good friend pschul4
A: Really dark orange to brownish. Pours with little head with no lacing.
S: Smells kind of like a lager. Nothing very significant.
T: Also tastes like a lager with a little bit of caramelly malt flavors to it.
M: Really smooth with a very slight bit of carbonation.
O: Nothing sticks out without this beer. It isn't bad but is nothing to write home about.
03-15-2012 02:49:35 | More by areich6
2.93/5 rDev -13.3%
Pours a clear amber color with a half inch cream head that immediately dissipates.
Aroma is heavily caramel malt, bready, toasty, with a hint of herbal hop that is almost tea-like.
Flavor reveals a very malt-forward profile, with caramel sweetness dominating. There's significant toasted bready tones, with a touch of citrus hops and herbal notes, but the cloyingly sweet malt overtakes the taste. A nutty aftertaste surfaces late. There's also a bit of a metallic finish.
Body is fairly syrupy, with minimal carbonation and a bit of alcohol warmth.
Overall, nothing to write home about. Too cloyingly sweet and not enough hop balance to keep it drinkable.

The Golden Eagles bats came alive on Friday night and Oral Roberts topped Western Illinois 9-3 at J.L. Johnson Stadium.
ORU (18-18, 5-3 Summit) once again looked like the class of the Summit League as they pounded the Leathernecks pitching for ten hits and nine runs. Jose Trevino and Nate Goro led ORU with a home run and a double each. Goro launched his first home run of the season, while Trevino recorded his seventh to go along with three RBI.
Mike Torrence (3-5) allowed no hits through the first four innings and ended up throwing six, allowing two runs off four hits with three strikeouts. Joe Spring would come on to earn the save by pitching three innings of relief and allowing one run with four strikeouts.
WIU (12-21-1, 3-6 Summit) has not won a game at J.L. Johnson Stadium since 1998, and Rob Walton improves to 31-3 all-time against the Leathernecks. Starter Nick Smith gave the Leathernecks four innings, allowing two runs off six hits. Alexander Zarate (0-2) allowed four runs, all unearned, off one hit and five walks in 1.2 innings of relief.
The Golden Eagles, who started the game 1-8 versus left-handed starters, wasted no time jumping on Western Illinois' lefty Nick Smith, scoring a run in the bottom of the first with a Trevino single to score Cho. ORU extended the lead to 2-0 in the second with a groundout byLogan Domenico that scored Jake O'Brien.
Western Illinois was able to rally in the sixth and tie the game 2-2, but ORU answered right back by scoring four runs in the sixth off back-to-back walks with the bases loaded and a two-run single by Bennett Pickar. Goro and Trevino's home runs in the seventh inning scored three more runs to put the game out of reach, 9-2.
The series will resume on Saturday at J.L. Johnson Stadium with a doubleheader beginning at 2 p.m.

Blues can use FA Cup to fire up league challenge
9:00am Friday 13th September 2013 in Sport By Stuart Amos
Met Police boss Jimmy Cooper is hoping the FA Cup can fire up his side's Ryman Premier League season.
Ten-man Blues battled back from 2-0 down at Lewes to draw 2-2 through injury time goals from Steve Sutherland and Manny Osei.
Wednesday's game at Hampton & Richmond Borough was abandoned to leaving the Met only four points above the drop zone.
Cooper's side had a similarly slow start last term before a dream run to the FA Cup first round proper and the Imber Court chief, who signed Hayes & Yeading's Stefan Cox and former favourite Ty Smith this week, is hoping for a repeat perforamnce at Chalfont St Peter tomorrow.
"We've got a very different team this year and I'm sure we will get it right," he said.
"The cup run kicked us into life last year and hopefuly something similar can happen again."

Tourists walk past the stars of movie and music celebrities outside the Chinese Theater on Hollywood Blvd in Hollywood on September 02, 2014. Apple said a "targeted attack" led to the release of nude photos of celebrities including Oscar winner Jennifer Lawrence but insisted there was no breach of its cloud storage system. The admission came as experts and lawyers said the hack was a wake-up call about the dangers posed by technology to people's privacy, whether they are stars or not.

Qt and Windows Phone Toolchain Overview
This article demonstrates how to start with Windows Phone 7 development from Symbain Qt.
Windows Phone 7.5
In this article we will see how to start with Windows Phone 7 development tools, but this article is more helpful to those who are from Symbian Qt background. First we will compare both the tools and SDK of WP7 and Symbian Qt needed for development. This will give a clear picture how to start WP7 development from Symbian Qt. Later we will see how to deploy apps on WP device and usability of designing tools. We can say this article is a collection of information to start from Qt to WP7.
Windows Phone and Symbian Qt Development Tools
Qt Creator is the IDE for Symbian Qt application development. The latest release of Qt SDK 1.1.3 includes:
- Qt and Qt Mobility APIs for Symbian, MeeGo, desktop, and simulator targets
- Qt Quick with the Qt Quick Components and Qt Creator to provide a complete solution for UI development.
- Qt Creator, Qt Simulator for easy and fast development. And many more.
In WP7 Visual Studio 2010 Express for Windows Phone is the IDE that has the feature of designing, developing and debugging of Windows Phone applications. We can download the complete set of tools and SDK from here, which inclulds:
Both Symbian Qt and WP7 tools provides a similar kind of functionality in respective of development. The table below shows the common functionality handled differently by the tools.
|Symbian Qt
|Windows Phone 7
|Developing Language
|Qt C++/QML
|Qt Creator
|Visual Studio 2010 Express
|Qt Simulator
|Windows Phone Emulator
|UI Designer
|Qt Quick Designer, Qt Designer
|Expression Blend
Windows Phone UI Design and Testing Tools
The UI design tools includes Visual Studio UI Designer Expression Blend WP uses a specific XML markup language called XAML for the UI representation. Visual Studio UI Designer for WP has a similar features compared to the Qt Quick Designer. Expression Blend for WP is a visual UI design tool that is suitable for designers. Qt Quick Designer and Qt Designer are equivalents to Expression Blend. The WP Emulator provides a environment in which we can deploy, debug and test applications. The emulator provides a feel of the actual device and meets the peripheral specifications required for WP application development.
Deploying applications to Windows Phone device and API Documentation
We need to register the windows phone device before we can deploy app on it using Developer Registration Tool. For that we need a Windows Live ID and a valid App Hub developer account as a prerequisite. And make sure that Zune is installed and running in the host computer where we have connected the device. We can use Visual Studio for application deployment, but the device must be registered. To deploy application, just select target Windows Phone Device in Visual Studio Standard toolbar and then press F5 to start deployment. See Deploying and testing on your Windows Phone for more information about deploying applications to device. Like Qt Assistant in Symbian Qt, WP7 has MSDN for API documentation.
