A late flurry of goals led to the LA Galaxy thumping Chivas USA 4-0 at the Home Depot Center on Sunday night. Following a demolition job at the hands of the Seattle Sounders last weekend, one might have expected the Galaxy to be a little short on confidence, but they came out of the blocks at full speed and didn't take long to test the Chivas defence, with Robbie Keane looking exceptionally dangerous early.
Keane got his goal in the 27th minute, when Landon Donovan drew Dan Kennedy away before cutting back to the Ireland striker. From then on, the game, held before a disappointingly small crowd despite the Home Depot Center being home for both teams, was never really in doubt. Save for a Nick DeLaGarza shot cleared off the line, Chivas weren't good enough to threaten the Galaxy, and it was only a matter of time until more goals were added. Juninho made it 2-0 with a neat curling effort from just outside the box following another feed by Donovan.
From then on the question was just how many the 'visitors' would score -- and how many assists Donovan would get on the night. The answer to turned out to be four, with the midfielder setting a new MLS single-game record for assists with a far-post cross to Juninho before finishing Chivas off in the 83rd minute by dropping a corner kick onto Omar Gonzalez's head.
As far as the hosts were concerned, their best player was their goalkeeper. In a 4-0 loss. Youch.

Should I bring my daughter to my wife's funeral?
Isn't my toddler too young to go to a memorial service for his uncle?
Won't children be upset if they go to a wake?
Will a vigil ceremony just make the fears worse?
These are common questions from parents and other adults when someone has died or in other times of tragedy. The answers are important and vary according to the individual child and whether the child has been closely affected by a loss.
The meaning of rituals
Understanding the function of rituals can help adults make decisions about children's participation. The funeral or memorial service is only one event in the goodbye process. These rituals are important as concrete markers in time. Although planned activities and services do not provide emotional closure for all feelings, they do signify the end of life and the beginning of a period of change. Feelings about, and reactions to, a person who has died change throughout one's lifetime. With the accumulation of new experiences comes meaning.
Attending a community vigil
When there is a community or national catastrophic event, such as a bombing or airplane crash, in which people are killed or missing, candle light vigils or other services may be held. Children generally learn of these catastrophes, either through personal losses or those of their friends, or the news media. In these situations, it is often helpful for children to participate in these rituals, to share their feelings of shock and grief and sadness with others. However, children's involvement should not be forced. For those children who may become overwhelmed, parents should exercise caution and provide a small-scale ceremony to commemorate the victims of the tragedy or find other ways to show concern.
Planning for participation at funerals and memorial services
The following points are helpful to consider in helping a child participate in rituals and services.
- To help a child decide if he or she should attend a funeral or memorial service, or when a child expresses a desire to attend, describe what will take place in simple, clear language. These services are unlike any other experience. Parents and teachers should explain what the child will see and how people may react. At any age, children can become confused by the events that take place at these rituals and by seeing other people's expression of strong emotions. Funeral home staff are often accommodating and sensitive to parents' wishes if they want to bring a child to the funeral home ahead of time to help in the preparation.
- Inquire about the child's wishes. Attendance should not be a requirement, but it should be an option. It is important to stress that although the funeral occurs at a particular time and place, children are not bad or unloving if they do not attend. It is not their only chance to say goodbye. School-age children and teens can help decide if and how they want to be included.
- Explore different kinds of participation. Private rituals may be preferable for some children. Attendance at the funeral or memorial service is only one way for children to participate and be involved. For example, writing a poem or letter that is read aloud or put in a casket by an adult, or visiting the grave site and bringing flowers after the burial are some other ways of saying goodbye.
- Remember that attendance does not have to be all or nothing. Parents and teachers should think through the different activities and structure different options, such as going to the funeral service but not the burial, spending an hour at a wake and then going out with a family friend.
- Take into account parents' emotional states and other responsibilities. In the case of a deceased parent, the ability of the surviving parent to attend to the child should be considered. If the parent is distraught or burdened with details, relatives and caretakers should be enlisted to help. Having a specific identified companion for the child and a plan of activities will relieve pressure on the parents and stress on the child.
- Consider the child's age. Very young children (infants - age 4) simply may not have the physical ability or attention span to attend services. A known caretaker, friend or relative should be the child's companion during funeral activities or at home. This arrangement provides comfort and relieves strain on the immediate family.
- When deciding if children from a class will attend a funeral or pay respects to the family of a classmate or staff member, an adult should find out the details of the arrangements and ask the bereaved family about their preferences. It is impossible to assume what any individual family finds helpful and children and adults are comforted in different ways. The relationship of the children in the class to the person who died should also dictate their level of participation.
- Consider different ways to show support. In addition to attending specific ritualized events, other activities are also appreciated. Taking care of the family's pets while the family is busy with funeral activities, inviting the surviving children out during the wake, having class members send hand-made cards to the family, or making donations to a special cause, are some of the most helpful ways to show support.
- Keep in mind that various cultures and religions have different customs and practices. Know and respect the appropriate way to show support in each situation. People of all cultures and religions appreciate hearing that someone cares and remembers them during a difficult time.

AVON — The Brownsburg Bulldogs baseball team opened sectional play Wednesday night at Avon High School against the Decatur Central Hawks.
The Bulldogs advanced past the Hawks and into the next round of sectional play with an 8-4 victory. Brownsburg scored in five different innings, showing consistent flow on offense throughout the game.
"We played really well," Brownsburg coach Eric Mattingly said. "It was a really good start to the tournament."
The Bulldogs opened the game with a one-run first inning and the score came by way of a Decatur Central error. Brownsburg was able to get their first hit in the top of the second as junior Sam Comer reached first on a ground ball.
The Hawks escaped the first two innings giving up only one run as Brownsburg had other potential runs stranded on the bases. Decatur used its momentum on defense to draw even after two innings. The Hawks utilized hits from Taylor Douglas and Jacob Byrd to knot the score.
The Bulldogs came right back in the top of the third inning with a triple from senior Michael Hartnagel followed by a Tyler Houston single that brought Hartnagel home.
In the fourth, Comer led off with a single, then reached second on an error and eventually stole third.
After securing two outs, Decatur's pitcher walked senior Garrett Isch and hit Hartnagel. Houston then added a two-RBI single, bringing in Isch and Hartnagel for a 4-1 lead. Following the Houston single, senior Haden Shipman hit a bouncer into left-centerfield. That hit scored two more runs, ending the top of the fourth with the Bulldogs up 6-1 on the Hawks.
Brownsburg held their advantage through the fifth inning and added one run each in the sixth and seventh innings with yet another RBI from Houston. Houston finished with four RBI and went 3 for 4 from the plate.
"I was just trying to help the team out and drive some runs in," Houston said. "I did my job to go out and help us win."
Houston also pitched a complete game for the Bulldogs, striking out eight batters while giving up seven hits.
Decatur scored three runs in the seventh inning but Brownsburg held on for the victory.
Hartnagel also had a nice day on offense tallying two triples and ended the day with three runs.
"I've been rolling over these past few games and I just thought gap-to-gap today and it helped out," Hartnagel said.
The Bulldogs continue sectional play this Monday at 10 a.m. against Southport at Avon High School.

Perfect for weddings
Feb 5, 2014 | By Laura Vergeront
If you want elegant at your wedding or birthday party or just because you finished the house chores. You got to get these chocolates. Yummmmmmmm
Jan 9, 2014 | By J.D.
I agree with the other reviewer, in that I was expecting more of a 'peanut butter cup' experience as well. But let me make something very clear: I am *not* disappointed...in any way. Perhaps you chocolate-lovers out there will understand what I mean when I use the term "chocolate-related ecstasy" -- you know, when chocolate is so good that it actually makes you feel sublimely happy, satisfied, and fulfilled? Well, this goes in that category, without question. First of all, I'm not really sure where the chocolate ends and the hazelnut begins -- there's this heavenly mixture of them on such a level that, unlike the clear chocolate/filling separation in peanut butter cups, there is no such strong contrast. I actually like this because it's more like I'm eating one contiguous item rather than two put together -- like in the case of peanut butter cups. The milk chocolate is rich and creamy and milky in such a way that you may never guess it's vegan -- this is a level of creaminess I've yearned for in vegan chocolate, but had trouble finding. The hazelnut filling is rich, creamy, and very satisfying. If you could call these truffles (which I think they taste rich and delicious enough to be), they'd be the best ones I've ever had. Without a second thought, they're easily one of the top best chocolate items I've ever had...ever. I've shared these with chocolate-lovers who are non-vegans and in both cases, they asked me how to get more (something that doesn't often happen). I wouldn't hesitate to recommend these for self-indulgence (come on, you deserve it) or to give as a gift. They're amazing, delicious, and the sublime taste...well, it may make you wish you could buy self-control as easily as these chocolates! ;)

These are surprisingly good. At first, I wasn't sold on them. I expected it to taste more like a peanut butter cup (I don't know why). I slowly finished the bag, and by the end I was hooked. Now I can't get enough of these!

We uncovered new details about the 40-acre brush fire that broke out Thursday in East Naples. Officials with the Caloosahatchee Forestry Center say it was a four-acre controlled burn that escaped and got out of control. A group called "Friendly Fire" conducted the burn and was looking to kill off some exotic vegetation. Many were questioning why a controlled burn was allowed with the recent dry weather conditions; but officials we spoke with say they didn't think it was a problem.
"Yesterday was one of those days because conditions are starting to dry out again after all of the rain we had last week. We felt that it was a relatively safe day to burn but only for experienced burners," said Hank Graham, with the Forestry Center.
The brush fire was contained within a few hours and no one was injured.
"At times this just happens and the fire gets going," said East Naples-Golden Gate Fire Chief Kingman Schuldt.
Officials with the Caloosahatchee Forestry Center say any time a brush fire starts like this - it makes them take a closer look at the company that had the permit. In this case, it was Friendly Fire. And they'll question whether or not they did anything wrong and that's something that's still under investigation.

By Mike LaBella
---- — HAVERHILL — A controversial plan to convert a stretch of South Central Street to one-way traffic goes into effect tomorrow, despite the objections of city councilors, as well as residents and businesses in that part of the city.
Beginning at approximately 5:30 a.m., South Central Street between Central Square and South Chestnut Street will be restricted to one-way, eastbound traffic. In conjunction with the change, new traffic signals at the intersection of Route 125 (South Main Street) with South Central Street, Ferry Street and South Pleasant Street will be placed into flashing mode, according to state transportation officials.
Since last summer, the City Council has voted three times to oppose the change while business owners and people who live near the square rallied against the plan at several public meetings.
Merchants and property owners have said the change would hurt business and lower real estate values, while residents expressed concerns it will lead to more traffic on narrow residential streets behind the square because of motorists seeking other ways to reach Route 125.
City Councilor Robert Scatamacchia said the council recently asked the state to keep the traffic pattern on South Central two-way. He said the state informed the city that the change to one-way travel would be taking place and that it was based on traffic safety studies based on the redesigned Central Square.
"I don't agree with the state," Scatamacchia said. "Making South Central Street one-way will cause more problems than it will solve."
Restricting traffic to one-way on a stretch of South Central Street is part of the state's massive reconstruction of Route 125, which included redesigning and rebuilding Central Square for improved traffic flow. State officials have said keeping South Central Street two way, once the new traffic light is activated, would cause Route 125 to back up all the way to Salem Street near Bradford Common during peak traffic times in the late afternoon.
"I don't think the change is needed to address a safety or congestion issue," Scatamacchia said. "I think it will create more traffic problems on side streets such as South Chestnut Street. That's my opinion, and only time will tell."
State officials said that as part of the change going into effect tomorrow, drivers heading westbound on South Central Street destined to Route 125 (South Main Street) will be directed at South Chestnut Street to turn left and use other available routes.
That traffic includes about 30 Coppola company school buses, which will have to travel through congested neighborhoods they previously avoided.
Susan Bellerose, office manager for Coppola Bus Inc., which provides school bus transportation services for Haverhill, said a flashing sign on South Central Street has been warning drivers about the impending change in the traffic pattern. Bellerose said morning buses will now have to travel down South Chestnut Street to Doane Street, passing by the Sacred Hearts schoolyard and out to Route 125, or out an alleyway to South Kimball Street to Ferry Street, and onto Route 125.
"They don't like us to use Inland Street to Route 125 as it's not wide enough to make the turn," Bellerose said.
The change to one-way traffic on South Central Street required moving a Haverhill High School bus stop that was next to the Papa Gino's restaurant to South Kimball and Ferry streets.
"We sent notices home with them last week and the kids have been pretty good about it," Bellerose said. "We also have to change our route to Sacred Hearts because of the congestion on South Chestnut. It means we'll have to drive further into the neighborhood."
"Hopefully the state will change it back as that's what we fought for," Bellerose said. "We wanted it (South Central ) to stay two-way and so did neighbors and businesses. It's too tight over here as it is. We'll have to drive on streets that are narrow and congested."
Bellerose said that when kindergarten parents at Sacred Hearts pick up their children between 2 and 2:30 p.m., Coppola school buses may have to travel on South Pine Street.
"It's something the neighbors won't like," she said.
City Councilor William Macek said the state was unwilling to address the concerns that were raised about changing South Central Street to two-way traffic.
"They believe their design expertise and traffic expertise is superior to our local knowledge of the area and what goes on," Macek said. "School is almost out, there are no snow piles, and neighbors will still have to zig-zag their way to South Main Street. The state never reviewed the impact this would have on the neighborhood. They just decided to build it according to plan and if problems arise to have us bring them to their attention then make changes after the fact."
Michael Verseckes, a spokesman for MassDOT, said appropriate signs, channelizing devices and traffic control measures will be used to guide drivers through the reconfigured intersection. He said traffic on Route 125 (South Main Street) or Ferry Street destined to South Central Street will not be affected by the traffic pattern change.
The $13.1 million project to reconstruct Route 125 between the Basiliere Bridge and Boston Road is more than 80 percent complete, officials said. The work includes installing new and upgrading existing traffic signals, making drainage improvements, full depth pavement widening, installing new granite curbing and cement concrete sidewalks, adding new signage as well as striping and restorative landscaping.
Verseckes said MassDOT encourages drivers to reduce speed and use caution when traveling through the reconfigured intersection.

Capture high-resolution panoramas with the exceptional performance of GigaPan EPIC Pro camera mount. Automate your shootings and create impressive panoramic images. To get the best result, stitch the photos automatically with Autopano Pro or Autopano Giga software and make your panorama interactive with Panotour Pro software.
• Camera and lens combinations of up to 10 lbs
Embedded computer
The GigaPan EPIC Pro has an embedded computer with LCD screen of four lines. It is very practical as it doesn't require a laptop to be used. Once set, the embedded computer will control the entire shooting sequence from the first picture to the last, by rotating and tilting the head and automatically triggering the camera.
Gigapixel photography requires the use of powerful lenses. Any vibration can increase the risk of making your shots blurry. You should take care of two things: on the one hand, the mount needs to be sufficiently stable, and on the other hand the camera and lens have to be well positioned according to its center of gravity. The EPIC Pro is composed of a single non-detachable unit offering a good compromise between size / stability / weight to make gigapixel shots.
Multiple possibilities
GigaPan EPIC Pro not only enables you to shoot a great quantity of images in the goal of creating gigapixel panoramas, it also lets you automate the shooting for a 360° virtual tour (attention: the tilt range is -65°/+90° to avoid that the lens bumps into the head), or to automate bracketed shotsin order to create HDR images.
American Photo Editor's Choice
"Once only a fiction in the movies, the concept of a digital image with practically infinite detail has become a reality, courtesy of GigaPan motorized camera mounts. Derived from NASA imaging technology, these systems precisely automate the process of shooting dozens or even hundreds of separate frames that, when stitched together in software, create gigapixel-size (1000-megapixel-plus) images."
American Photo magazine (USA)
Popular Photography Award
"We like a big picture, and with the GigaPan you can make really big pictures. Essentially a smart, robotic version of a panoramic tripod head, it shoots and stitches giant multishot images. The original version, made famous by that super-high-resolution photo of President Obama's inauguration, could hold only a compact, but this one handles a DSLR and lens combo weighing up to 10 pounds."
Popular Photography Magazine (USA)
User case: 16-gigapixel panorama of Machu Picchu, by Jeff Cremer
An amazing photo captures Machu Picchu in what could be the highest resolution image ever taken of the Inca citadel. This interactive panorama is made up from 1920 separate pictures taken using the GigaPan EPIC Pro camera mount and stitched automatically with Kolor Autopano Giga software.
> Discover the gigapixel image of Machu Picchu
Kolor advices you
Once the shooting with the GigaPan EPIC Pro is finished, the images have to be stitched together. Then, if you want to publish your panorama on the Internet, you need to make it interactive and save it in a format compatible with a viewing on the Internet:
Stitching of the images
GigaPan Stitch software is shipped with the camera mount, but we advice you to use Autopano Pro or Autopano Giga software, that both include a dedicated GigaPan import module that guarantees the right positionning of the images and the stitching quality.
To make your panorama interactive and to be able to publish it online, we advice you to use Panotour Pro software. Designed for the creation of 360-degree virtual tours, this application also handles gigapixel panoramas. You can even link together gigapixel panoramas with embedded 360-degree virtual tours, add sound, videos, animations and many other features.
Make the most of your gigapixel shootings with these two software applications.

CATEGORIES Documentary, Drama, Foreign Language, Independent, New Releases, Paramount, Sony Classics, New on DVD, Home Entertainment, Cinematical Indie, Features, DVDs, Movies, New Releases, CinematicalThe big indie DVD release this week is Sean Penn's cinematic version of the true-life adventure story Into the Wild, starring Emile Hirsch and Hal Holbrook. But there are several other intriguing new titles that you might have missed during their theatrical engagements, starting with Susanne Bier's Things We Lost in the Fire. By our usual definitions, it's not really an "indie," since it was released by a big Hollywood studio (Paramount Pictures), but I think Bier's distinctive directorial vision is the very definition of "independent." It's certainly not an easy film to watch or to like, yet the performance by Benicio del Toro is a knock out and I think a rental is justified. The DVD includes deleted scenes and a discussion about the film.
When he saw My Kid Could Paint That at Sundance, Scott Weinberg wrote: "I love a documentary that doles out both sides of an interesting story and then forces you to decide for yourself where the truth actually lies." Directed by Amir Bar-Lev, the documentary tells the story of a four-year-old girl who may -- or may not -- be an immensely talented artist. Sony Pictures Classics' DVD includes an audio commentary and two behind-the-scenes features.
An intimate drama that divided festival audiences, Chilean filmmaker Matías Bize's En La Cama (In Bed) sets all the action in a single motel room as a man and a woman alternately have passionate sex and engage in spirited debates. This sounds like a couples film -- as long as the couple is comfortable watching softcore porn together. Koch Lorber's DVD includes deleted scenes, a bonus interview, rehearsals, TV spots, and a short film by the director.

Police have issued an alert for businesses in the Central District after two men held up a cell phone store on the Near West Side.
The armed robbery occurred in the 600 block of West Roosevelt Road, the alert said.
Two men, one of who wore a ski mask, entered the store armed with a handgun and demanded cell phones and cash. The man in the black neoprene mask carried a green military-like duffle bag into which they loaded cell phones.
The men were described as black, between 25 and 30. The one with the mask was 5-foot-9 to 5-foot-11, while the other was 5-foot-6 to 5-foot-8, wearing a black knit hat, an "Oxford" urban wear jacket, and plaid scarf.
Anyone with information should call Area Central detectives at (312) 747-4383.
Police are investigating the murder of a homeless man who was beaten to death in an alley in Logan Square.

Issa's Gunwalker Subpoena a Virtual Non-Story; AP Furiously Spins False 'Bush Did It Too' Meme
On October 9, an unbylined Associated Press story reported that Congressmen Darrell Issa "could send subpoenas to the Obama administration as soon as this week over weapons lost amid the Mexican drug war." On Wednesday, October 12, Issa did just that.
Mike Vanderboegh's Sipsey Street Irregulars blog has a succinct summary (HT Ed Driscoll) of the establishment press's coverage of Issa's actions since the subpoenas' issuance:
As evidence, ladies and gentlemen of the jury of history, I present the undisputed fact that on the evening news shows of NBC, ABC and CBS this week not one -- NOT ONE -- mentioned the unprecedented subpoena by a Congressional committee of information regarding the entire top echelon of the Justice Department in the Gunwalker Scandal.
Had this scandal involved John Ashcroft and the Bush Administration, does anyone doubt that the story would have led the nightly half-hour "puppet theater"? Or, that it wouldn't have been covered like a blanket by all news departments from the moment the blood of Brian Terry dried in the desert sands of Rio Rico?
It appears that only Fox News did cover the subpoena's issuance the day it occurred.
Searches at the main site of the Associated Press aka the Administration's Press on "subpoena," "subpoenas," and Congressman Issa's last name indicate that the self-described Essential Global News Network has not reported the subpoena's actual issuance.
It would appear that the wire service wants to keep the following people mentioned in the subpoena and accumulated by M. Catharine Evans at the American Thinker out of its subscribing news outlets' publications and broadcasts as much as possible:
Executive Office of the President employees, including but not limited to Associate Communications Director Eric Schultz;
Eric Holder Jr., Attorney General;
David Ogden, Former Deputy Attorney General;
Gary Grindler, Office of the Attorney General and former Acting Deputy Attorney General;
James Cole, Deputy Attorney General;
Lanny Breuer, Assistant Attorney General;
Ronald Weich, Assistant Attorney General;
Kenneth Blanco, Deputy Assistant Attorney General;
Jason Weinstein, Deputy Assistant Attorney General;
John Keeney, Deputy Assistant Attorney General;
Bruce Swartz, Deputy Assistant Attorney General;
Matt Axelrod, Associate Deputy Attorney General;
Ed Siskel, former Associate Deputy Attorney General;
Brad Smith, Office of the Deputy Attorney General;
Kevin Carwile, Section Chief, Capital Case Unit, Criminal Division;
Joseph Cooley, Criminal Fraud Section, Criminal Division;
James Trusty, Acting Chief, Organized Crime and Gang Section;
Emory Hurley, Assistant U.S. Attorney, Office of the U.S. Attorney for the District of Arizona;
Michael Morrissey, Assistant U.S. Attorney, Office of the U.S. Attorney for the District of Arizona;
Patrick Cunningham, Chief, Criminal Division, Office of the U.S. Attorney for the District of Arizona;
David Voth, Group Supervisor, ATF;
Hope MacAllister, Special Agent, ATF
AP's coverup of Issa's subpoena is so complete that its existence isn't even mentioned in an over 1,000-word "Bush really, really did it too" story by Pete Yost on Friday. This Sipsey Street post ("Selective document releases from the White House help prove Issa's case") and Bob Owens at Pajamas Media ("New Documents Highlight Differences in Bush-Era, Obama-Era Gunrunner Investigations") have pulverized Pete's pathetic prose, so I don't have to -- except to ask one question of Yost: "How many Border Patrol agents died in the Bush-era operations?"

"...How many Border Patrol agents died in the Bush-era operations?" ---Tom Blumer
Compean and Ramos were railroaded by the Bush people. The borders remained wide open to terrorists and illegal aliens of all stripes to enter our country for 8YEARS. What did the cloneservatives in the media do about that?
With a new president in office the clonservatives raise a stink because Obama's Gun runners aren't being exposed with the degreee they deserve to be exposed by the Main Stream. I agree the media is covering up this very illegal action by a totalitarian administration. But how many in the cloneservative media ( there were a handful) complained of the blackout of this story by the Main Stream Media when Compean and Ramos were being dragged off to prison?

Submitted by hbnolikeee on Sun, 10/16/2011 - 11:35am.
how many died due to President Bush's policy or failed border policy due to our send guns to Mexico? I love idiots that excuse bad behavior by pointing at someone else and saying "Yeah but look what so and so did". Listen fool, that kind of misdirection no longer works and does not buy someone a pass for doing the same (perhaps) or worse (how many thousand guns did holder send to Mexico).

Sorry, but there was a HUGE outcry across the conservative media including talk radio about the Compean and Ramos story and the facts behind the case that were ignored in the msm.
More than a "handul" of complaints too.

True Heros, the both of them, humble as both may be.
Make no mistake, this country and everyone in it owes them both a great deal for refusing to stand down this story before a Establishment media that has, all along, made every effort to hide it all. Visit their sites and share their links, and we will all be better off for it.

Only two more days till Christmas, folks. Everything wrapped and ready to go? Here's a handful of links to accompany that jug of egg nog as you feverishly search for the last roll of red ribbon.
Indians news
Tribe players have awful taste in Christmas music | Tribe Vibe (Courtney Shilling) - A handful of Indians players list their favorite holiday songs. Not one mention of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir from this shameful lot.
Francona pushed for a veteran closer | Cleveland.com (Terry Pluto) - Pluto presents a handful of facts about new Tribe closer John Axford and LGFT Drew Stubbs.
Chris Perez won't return; Indians won't change outfield dimensions to accommodate speedy team | Cleveland.com (Paul Hoynes) - Hoynes addresses these astounding suggestions and several others of similar caliber in his occasional "Hey Hoynsie" column.
Around the league
Yankees' and Boras' loss is Texas' gain in Choo deal | Sports on Earth (Jonathan Bernhardt) - A deal between Shin-Soo Choo and the Yankees fell apart over a reported $3 million, ultimately losing him and Scott Boras around $10 million. Choo is a obviously a big addition to the Texas lineup, even if that contract doesn't age well.
Jeremy Guthrie visits China | MLB.com (Dick Kaegel) - Cool piece about LGFT Guthrie's role as an "MLB Ambassador" to areas around the globe with developing interests in baseball.
Breaking down Jack Morris' case for the HoF | CBS Sport (Mike Axisa) - Many of Morris' proponents point to him being the "winningest pitcher of the '80's." Is that enough to get him in the Hall, or an arbitrary stat? Just for fun, Axisa also provides a list of the winningest pitchers of specific 10-year timeframes alongside those with the highest WAR. I know we like to hate on wins - and for good reason - but this list shows it is a pretty reasonable way to gage the performance of pitchers over a long period of time.
Balfour situation getting ugly | Fox Sports (Ken Rosenthal) - Grant Balfour may seek to file a grievance against the Orioles for nullifying his contract. Meanwhile, Balfour claims he has four other teams interested in him, and the Orioles are pursuing Fernando Rodney in lieu of Balfour.
Leonys Martin held ransom after leaving Cuba | AP Wire - Scary stuff here, and a reminder that baseball is so much more than a game to so many of its young stars who come to MLB looking for a better life.
Andrew McCutchen induces labour | Cut 4 (Dan Wohl) - On a lighter note, here's one of those strange stories that makes baseball so great.
That's about all for today's lazy Sunday. I was going to end with a clip from "A Christmas Story," but decided to go with this less cliched video of a leg lamp's trip to space. If you can get past the annoying subtitles and obnoxious music, this is kind of an awesome video:

Saturday DNA! was developed by our educational and scientific staff to serve children, teens, and adults interested in DNA programs outside of the school setting. We offer a variety of 2-hour laboratory- and computer-based sessions.
Ages 10-13, chaperone required
We all know DNA is important; it is the stuff that makes you unique! But how does DNA actually do this? The answer may surprise you…technically DNA doesn't really "do" anything. DNA codes for the production of protein much like a cook book has recipes for different meals. The cookbook doesn't make the dinner, the chef does. What is the "chef" in the cell? Join us to find out.

West Ranch boys tennis started off the Foothill League season strong on Monday, defeating Saugus 12-6 behind the stellar play of its mainstays,
Saugus girls soccer added to its unprecedented season Monday.
In many ways, it might be a building year for Foothill League boys tennis.
Some teams are trying to fill holes left by graduating seniors, while others are busy laying a foundation for the future of their program.
During her sophomore season, Hart's Chelsea Griffiths set a league record in the 100-yard backstroke at the Foothill League Swim Finals with a time of 58.62 seconds.
If you take a look across the Foothill League landscape, one question may come to mind.
After years in the Foothill League's cellar, Golden Valley baseball took a giant leap forward on Friday.
Hart boys volleyball got its first home victory Wednesday night, defeating Crescenta Valley 3-1 at Hart High.
This season, University of California, Irvine junior infielder Casey Stevenson did something he had not done in years.
In five seasons, he played for five different coaches - three a Saugus, one at the College of the Canyons and another at the UC Irvine.
West Ranch softball continued its winnings ways Thursday afternoon against previously undefeated Los Angeles Baptist of North Hills, capitalizing on the Knights' mistakes in its 3-2 win at West Ranch High.
A trend is developing.
CLOVIS – No team has ever accomplished what Saugus girls soccer has this season.
Today, Saugus and Buchanan of Clovis come into the first round of the CIF-Southern California Regional Division I Girls Soccer Championships with something to prove.
The Centurions (20-3-3), feeling slighted over their seeding in the tournament, are in uncharted territory.
Saugus girls soccer is set to face Buchanan High of Clovis on Tuesday at 5 p.m. in the first round of the CIF Southern California Regional Division I Championships at Buchanan High just outside of Fresno.
The announcement was made on the CIF's state Web site Sunday.
After a mere five wins one year ago, West Ranch softball opened the 2009 season with two straight as Canyon, Hart, Golden Valley and the Wildcats joined 12 other teams Saturday for the first day of games in the Hart Classic Softball Tournament at Central Park in Saugus.
DOWNEY - It is official.

Read his obituary in The Salt Lake Tribune
Hays Gorey
, a longtime political correspondent for Time magazine, died at a health care facility in Salt Lake City on April 5th, 2011, from complications with dementia. He was 89.
Gorey was best known nationally for his work at Time from 1965 to 1991. He was in Los Angeles covering the campaign of Robert Kennedy in 1968 when the senator was assassinated and covered three presidential campaigns as well as the Watergate scandal and resignation in 1974 of President Nixon.
He collaborated with photographer Bill Eppridge on "Robert Kennedy: The Last Campaign," and co-wrote, with Maureen "Mo" Dean, the wife of White House counsel John Dean, "Mo: A Woman's View of Watergate." He also wrote a biography of Ralph Nader and co-wrote Florida Congressman Claude D. Pepper's autobiography.
A native of Salt Lake City, Gorey started working for The Salt Lake Tribune at age 17, using his salary to pay his way through the University of Utah. He was promoted to city editor at age 24 and was news editor before joining Time's Washington bureau.
a tribute by Paul Rolly
on the paper's website, former Tribune publisher Jack Gallivan called Gorey "a journalist's journalist." Gallivan continued, "When he first started at The Salt Lake Tribune, his professionalism quickly endeared him to everybody on the staff. I did everything I could to dissuade him from leaving us to work for Time, but Washington was too attractive. I consider Hays one of the most distinguished sons of The Salt Lake Tribune."
He is survived by his wife,
, four children, nine grandchildren, and 10 great-grandchildren.
Bob Giles
has been named commentary editor for
, after serving on the international news website's editorial advisory board for the past three years.
Giles, who spent 11 years as curator of the Nieman Foundation before retiring this past summer, will be responsible for recruiting commentators from around the world and screening submissions for the site's recently re-launched
commentary section
Before being offered the position, Giles had discussed the section's lack of activity and editorial oversight with CEO and co-founder Philip Balboni. "I feared that clashing opinions and ideological arguments did not serve GP's mission of hard news," Giles wrote in an e-mail to Nieman Reports. The pair worked out a plan for the section, and Balboni asked Giles to run it.
"One of the joys of this new assignment will be to reconnect with a world of international and U.S. Nieman Fellows working overseas," Giles wrote. "I anticipate that some will contribute to the section and others will put me in touch with knowledgeable voices in their countries who might contribute commentary for GlobalPost."
Ralph Hancox
has written two novels about contemporary challenges facing the world. "Knock, Knock — Who's There?" and "The Latte Project," dealing with immigration and the illegal drug trade, respectively, were published in 2011 as print-on-demand books. They can be ordered from him at
. Hancox is retired from teaching at the Canadian Centre for Studies in Publishing at British Columbia's Simon Fraser University.
Edward C. Norton
self-published his 10th novel, "
Hell in a Cold Place
," as an Amazon e-book in January. Set at the beginning of the Korean War, it focuses on the withdrawal from the Chosin Reservoir of U.S. Marines under attack by Chinese "volunteer" divisions. In an e-mail to Nieman Reports, Norton writes that "retirement is a bore, and thus I've been writing books I want to read." Much of his work relies on the research skills he learned as a journalist.
Ron Javers
moved to China in February to teach in the
School of Communication and Design at Sun Yat-Sen University
in Guangzhou.
The former executive editor of Newsweek International, Javers wrote in an e-mail to Nieman Reports that he made the move at the request of Hu Shuli, the dean of the school and editor in chief of Caixin Media.
Javers will maintain his media strategy and consulting group, Ron Javers Worldwide. The group, based in New York, has consulted with companies and nongovernmental organizations in Turkey, Pakistan and in several countries in Eastern Europe, but most of its work has been in China, where media development and investment activities have remained strong, despite the slowdown in the U.S. and in Western Europe.
At Newsweek, Javers was responsible for the growth and development of its worldwide special editions, most of which he launched, working with writers, editors and publishers in China, Japan, South Korea, Mexico, Argentina, Russia, Poland, Kuwait, Turkey and Pakistan.
Danny Schechter
has published "Occupy: Dissecting Occupy Wall Street" through
. The book is a collection of reports and commentaries about the Occupy movement that he wrote for Al Jazeera English, his News Dissector blog, and other outlets. In the introduction, he explains that he covered the movement as a participatory journalist "reporting less on the day-to-day than on deeper trends" and that he "was totally sympathetic—it was an 'awakening' that I and so many were waiting years [for]—but I was not always uncritical."
In the preface, investigative reporter Greg Palast writes "the media made the occupation in New York and the USA a tale of cops and tarps and conga drums and young white kids with dreadlocks but without jobs. Schechter opens the lens wide and gives you the full picture of a movement which encompasses all of America's dispossessed ... and that's a lot."
David Lamb
will receive the University of Maine's annual Alumni Career Award at his class's 50th reunion this June.
During nearly 40 years as a journalist, Lamb traveled to 145 countries as a foreign correspondent with United Press International and the Los Angeles Times. He was elected to the Maine Press Association's Hall of Fame in 2005.
In February 2011, he led a 23-day tour of nine UNESCO World Heritage Sites for National Geographic Expeditions.
Don McNeill
's first novel, "
Hear, O Israel
" was published by Puna Press in January.
The book, written under the pen name Sam Jon Wallace, is set in modern-day Israel and across the Mediterranean. Three story lines come together in an attack on Iran's nuclear facilities. McNeill is also the author of "Submariner's Moon," a story collection published under his own name in 1996.
Buzz Bissinger
's fifth book, "
Father's Day: A Journey Into the Mind and Heart of My Extraordinary Son
," will be released on May 15th by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. It's a memoir about his son Zachary, who suffered severe brain damage when he was born three and a half months premature in 1983. In contrast, Zachary's twin, Gerry, born three minutes earlier, is a high achiever. In the hope of better understanding Zachary, Bissinger decides that the two of them should drive across the country to visit all the cities where the family has lived.
is a contributing editor for Vanity Fair and a sports columnist for the Daily Beast.
Ken Armstrong
and Michael J. Berens received the
2012 Selden Ring Award for Investigative Reporting
from the University of Southern California's Annenberg School of Journalism for their Seattle Times series "
Methadone and the Politics of Pain
The series looks at the more than 2,000 people who, since 2003, have fatally overdosed on methadone, a drug that was often prescribed in Washington state to Medicaid patients with chronic pain. Within weeks of publication, the state changed its policy regarding the drug.
"It's deeply satisfying that a family-owned metro, The Seattle Times, has won this recognition for their fine work on a little-understood public-policy issue," said
Geneva Overholser
, NF '86, director of the School of Journalism.
Matthew Schofield
joined the three-person national security reporting team in
's Washington, D.C. bureau on March 1st.
Schofield had been a columnist for the McClatchy-owned Kansas City Star, where he started in 1984. From 2003 to 2008, he served as European bureau chief for McClatchy, covering Iraq and the Israel-Hezbollah war.
Masha Gessen
started a new job in January as editor of the Moscow-based
Read more about Gessen, her book, and journalism in Russia »
Vokrug Sveta
, one of the oldest science magazines in the world. She also is editor in chief of the company's publishing house.
Her book about Russia's president, "
The Man Without a Face: The Unlikely Rise of Vladimir Putin
," was released on March 1st by Riverhead Books.
Margaret Kriz Hobson
has joined the staff of
Environment & Energy Publishing
as a reporter for
, a new website that launched in March.
It focuses on "unconventional fuels—meaning natural gas fracking, deep-water oil drilling, oil development in the Arctic waters, and oil from tar sands and tight formations," Hobson wrote in an e-mail to Nieman Reports. "These are by far the nation's most lucrative and the most controversial sources of energy for the future."
Prior to joining E&E in December, Hobson was at Congressional Quarterly for a year and had previously been the energy and environmental reporter for National Journal. In the two decades she's covered the field, she wrote, "I've always respected the unbiased, comprehensive news approach at Greenwire and ClimateWire—two of the company's [E&E's] other online publications/newsletters."
"With more news outlets in Washington focusing on breaking news and (for some) political gossip," she continued. "I saw this as a rare and attractive opportunity to write comprehensive articles on some of the coolest energy and environ-mental issues I know."
Bill Schiller
has returned to Toronto after a stint as Asia bureau chief for The Toronto Star. He offered this update:
"After having spent nearly five years in China and 10 years abroad previously for the Star, I won't be heading out for another permanent posting anytime soon. Like so many papers, we have now closed all our foreign bureaus except Washington, D.C.
"But—happily—management remains dedicated to covering the world and we've been sending people here, there and everywhere continuously over the past year. At one point during the Arab Awakening, we had eight reporters in the zone. I'm also told the travel budget will remain unchanged for the coming year, which is great.
"But my humble desire now is to report frequently from the United States in the coming year, which I believe will be the most fascinating story of all in 2012."
Brent Walth
has been awarded a master of fine arts in creative writing from Warren Wilson College. Now the managing editor for news at Portland, Oregon's Willamette Week, he was inspired to enter the program after taking Anne Bernays's writing course during his Nieman year. The program required travel to North Carolina for classes as well long-distance project work with faculty.
Walth, the class correspondent, sent in the following updates:
Zippi Brand Frank
won a 2011 News & Documentary Emmy Award for the HBO documentary "

Palfreman, a journalism professor at the University of Oregon, was also producer, director and co-writer of the Frontline documentary "
Nuclear Aftershocks
," which examined the safety of nuclear power in the wake of the nuclear accident in Fukushima, Japan. It aired in January.
Nancy San Martin
, interactive editor of The Miami Herald, led the team that won a regional Emmy Award for "
Nou Bouke
," a documentary on Haiti in the aftermath of the 2010 earthquake. It was the Miami Herald Media Co.'s first Emmy.

Takashi Oshima
will be covering U.S. and Japanese issues from the Washington, D.C. bureau of
The Asahi Shimbun
, a daily newspaper based in Tokyo.
Oshima started as a staff writer for the paper in 1995.

Jeb Sharp
is now show producer of Public Radio International's "
The World
," after 13 years as a reporter for the program.
In an e-mail, she explained the position: "The show producer sets the agenda for the daily broadcast. Think curator and logistics manager all rolled into one. I lead the morning meeting, assign producers, coordinate with editors, work with the engineering staff. I sit at the vortex of all the action so my main role is keeping all the channels of communications open."
Leading the team of journalists who put the program together is thrilling, but she looks forward to getting back to her own reporting. "I think many reporters who've become managers can relate," she added. She tweets
Alice Tatah
has earned a master's degree in communication for development from the Advanced School of Mass Communication at the University of Yaounde II in Soa, Cameroon.
