(Holtz) was disappointed to find out Monday that a few Bulls players left the field before Saturday's final play, a kickoff from Syracuse with three seconds left.From Greg Auman's notes blog entry on Monday. If that's something that happened, I'm sure Skip is right to be worried. One clunker, mail-it-in performance out of his team and the pressure on him and his boss will hit extreme levels.
"After Bridgewater went 21-for-25, USF has allowed a 69.4 percent completion rate against opposing quarterbacks this season."That comes from the "notes" section of the Tribune's wrapup from Louisville. It's really 69.42%, to be exact, which is next-to-last in the entire FBS. Only Kentucky is worse, at 70% on the nose. #LikeACosh
"USF's marching band dedicated its halftime show to school president Judy Genshaft, spelling out 'Judy' — call it Script Judy? — and playing 'Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic.''

Your move, everyone else.

Arrests made after suspected arson attack at derelict Rowley Regis school
Updated 8:58am Sunday 3rd February 2013 in Local
THREE men have been arrested in connection with a suspected arson attack at the former St Michael's School site in Rowley Regis.
Residents were advised to keep windows and doors shut to keep smoke out and roads in the area were closed as firefighters battled the blaze.
The fire broke out at the derelict school in Throne Road at 4.30pm.
Around seven fire crews are thought to have attended the incident, with firefighters using haudraulic platforms to fight the flames.
Police closed Throne Road at Shelsey Avenue, Portway Hill, Newbury Lane and Stuarts Road, with closures lifted at around 10pm last night.
A spokesperson for West Midlands Police said enquiries into the incident are ongoing but three men have been arrested.

Winter Birds
January 1, 2001: We hear birds singing and see activity in fir trees as we drive slowly past a farm bordering the Whitewater Wildlife Management Area (WMA). Dana Gardner and I are participating in the Whitewater Christmas Bird Count (CBC) and we need to identify these birds, so I pull my car to the side of the road and back up.
CBC's take place every year all across the Americas. Over 45,000 people participate each year in this census of winter bird populations. The first CBC's took place Christmas day 1900 at the suggestion of ornithologist Frank Chapman who asked people to count birds instead of shooting them for specimens, as was the current practice
Each count lasts one day and must occur between mid-December and mid-January. Participants record numbers and species of birds within a fifteen-mile radius of a central location. Our base today is the Whitewater State Park Visitor Center, where we met early this morning to pick up our assigned routes. Carol Schumacher, Winona, has organized this count for the past five years. Participants have come from all over Southeast Minnesota.
Now, after looking for over an hour, Dana and I have only seen crows and blue jays--not an auspicious beginning. As I back up to look at the birds in the fir trees, I feel my car sinking into snow at the edge of the road; I pull forward and sink deeper, then backward again and deeper yet. Dana tries to push me out with no success. He thinks we will have to call a tow truck, but I say he has been living away from Minnesota too long and doesn't remember the helpfulness of area farmers.
We cross the road to the farmhouse and knock on the door. A young boy answers and says he will ask his dad to help us. Soon a sleepy farmer comes into the kitchen where we are waiting. He says he will pull us out and heads to his barn. As Dana and I walk back to the car, we cheerfully realize we now have a good story to tell. This reminds me of author Moritz Thomsen�s words in "The Saddest Pleasure":
I will be like a traveler who, toward the end of his journey begins to carry a camera and finds his vision detoured and distorted, reality now seen as something that can be arranged or lighted for the camera's eye.
The farmer soon comes out of his barn on a tractor. Does he think we were stupid to have driven into the ditch? Is he suspicious of our intentions? He is friendly enough, but not talkative. He hooks a chain to my car and has us out of the ditch in minutes. We try to pay him, but
he won't take our money.
Before leaving the farm, we check out the birds we went into the ditch for and see they are only a huge flock of starlings. We continue on our way, having only lost half an hour of birding time.
Now our luck turns. We quickly find three light phase red-tailed hawks, three woodpecker species, and some Lapland longspurs. By the time we buy our lunch at the Altura deli and join the others back at the Visitor Center, we have seen a respectable sixteen species.
While sitting by the fireplace eating our lunches and watching feeder birds, we all share our sightings, including among others a golden eagle, northern shrike, brown creeper, Townsend's Solitaire and snow buntings. The feeders are busy now with woodpeckers, jays, chickadees, finches, juncos, tree sparrows and one out-of-season chipping sparrow.
Carol decides to spend the afternoon with Dana and me. We look for the northern shrike, which Dana wants to see, but it is nowhere in sight. When Dana thinks he sees a bluebird, I cautiously back up to get a better look. The bird is a robin. While looking at it, we discover a red-shouldered hawk perched low in a tree just behind us--an especially good find.
We investigate all the side roads. One turns out to be only a snowmobile trail. When my car begins to break through into the underlying soft snow, Carol and Dana have to push me out.
At 4:00 p.m., we return to the Visitor Center. It's time to turn in our counts and go home. I decide not to tell my husband about driving into the ditch. I will let him read about it here instead.

The World Council of Churches, which claims to speak for most Orthodox Churches around the globe, has formulated a number of proposals to reform the global financial system because of its inherent "injustice." General Secretary Samuel Kobia sees the need for new transnational financial watchdog organizations that will "qualitatively regulate the growth in massive movements in capital." The problem here is that Kobia fails to understand that a global economy requires an international flow of capital -- along with an international flow of goods and services and, very often, labor (indeed immigrant labor). In cataloging a long list of ills flowing from the current economic crisis, and the "neoliberal economic myth" of efficient markets, Kobia neglects to mention -- or fails to see -- how markets work to create wealth, economic growth and jobs. These are not things created by, as he would have it, "democratizing all global finance and trade institutions" across international boundaries. … [Read more...]

Baraga, Michigan
Baraga State Park
[ 9/10 ]
A nice clean park right across the street from Lake Superior, right on the main road around the lake. The campground host directed us to the back of the campground, stating it was quieter back there. There was a train track back there, but the train only came through once during the night. I recommend this campground for it's location.
Sault Sainte Marie, Michigan
Kewadin Casino Hotel and Campground
[ 9/10 ]
A clean, quiet campground right next to the casino. I love that there is a washer and dryer located in the bathroom. Join the Player's Club and you get $10 in free play money.
Marine on St. Croix, Minnesota
William O'Brien State Park
[ 8/10 ]
A beautiful campground nestled under a canopy of tall trees next to the St. Croix River, with river access and walking trails. It was nice and cool, and we were happy to find hardly any mosquitoes or bugs. A great find in the middle of the summer!
Flagstaff, Arizona
Fort Tuthill Coconino County Park Campground
[ 8/10 ]
We came up from Phoenix, so it was wonderful to have cool weather in the middle of the summer. It was a nice and quiet campground located next to the fairgrounds. We pulled in at dusk and enjoyed sleeping under huge pine trees. The campground host came by in the morning and took our fees. He was very friendly and knowledgeable of the area. I highly recommend this campground for those passing through Flagstaff.
Albert Lea, Minnesota
Myre-Big Island State Park
[ 8/10 ]
The campground is located on an island in the middle of Albert Lea lake. It is nestled under a canopy of trees and is nice and quiet. I would suggest you get a site with electric in the summer since it was a little hot and sticky. There was a few mosquitoes and a lot of long legged spiders, so also bring some bug spray. But overall, a very beautiful campground.
Denali National Park, Alaska
Riley Creek Campground (NPS Campground)
[ 9/10 ]
Located near the entrance of Denali National Park. Very close to the general store, showers, laundry, and dump station. A resident moose wandered through camp the 2 nights we stayed there. We will definitely stay here again when visiting the park.
Homer, Alaska
Fishing Hole Campground
[ 8/10 ]
A nice place to stay if you are only looking for dry camping. We parked right next to the fishing hole and walked to the shops at the harbor. Our neighbor welcomed us into camp with a big plate of delicious beer battered halibut and blackened halibut. Very friendly people at this camp, and a great place to watch the bald eagles.
Mammoth Lakes, California
Convict Lake Campground
[ 9/10 ]
Very clean campground with the stream right next to the campsites, and within walking distance to the lake. Extremely nice campground hosts. The only negative is that there isn't very much shade in the campsites.
Marsing, Idaho
Riverhaven Park
[ 8/10 ]
Nice, clean park with a very friendly host. She met us at our site to help us register. A beautiful location, right on the Snake River, but the spaces were a little small. A great place for a one night stay.
Lee Vining, California
Big Bend Campground - USFS
[ 8/10 ]
We have been camping at this campground for several years. It is a primitive campground with pit toilets and no other amenities, but the location is great. The campground host is always friendly and helpful. Located on the Lee Vining Creek within driving distance of Yosemite, Mammoth, Bodie, and Bridgeport.
Worley, Idaho
Coeur D'Alene Casino
[ 10/10 ]
Camping area is a parking lot at the far end of casino, not in a formal RV area. Some of the light poles still have electric hook ups, and a few rows have 20 amp hook ups. No bathrooms available. Very clean and a safe place to stay for free!
Las Vegas, Nevada
Sam's Town Casino & RV Park
[ 8/10 ]
Parked on gravel, but park was neat and clean. RV park is within walking distance to casino. Security vehicles patrolled very often, which made us feel safe. Some road noise, but not enough to bother us. Showers were clean, but very small and needed a bench and hooks to assist with keeping clothes and accessories dry while showering. Overall, a nice place and we will stay here again.
Benson, Arizona
Kartchner Caverns State Park
[ 10/10 ]
A beautiful campground within walking distance of the visitors center where the cave tours begin. The caves are exceptional, and I highly recommend both tours. Large sites with clean, beautiful bathrooms and showers. Easy access to the campground, and only 9 miles from I-10. An overall great campground that I recommend even if you are not taking one of the cave tours.
Fort Davis, Texas
Overland Trail Campground
[ 4/10 ]
Office was not open when we arrived at 11:00 am. Campground was small and in need of some TLC. Weeds, old cars, and old mobile homes made me feel like we were staying in an old trailer park instead of an RV park. Confusion on my part led to sarcasm from person who finally arrived late to open the office. I felt like I was interrupting his day by trying to check in. Good location, in the center of town, but will not stay there again.
Golden Valley, Arizona
Adobe RV Park (55+ park)
[ 10/10 ]
The cleanest park, laundry room, and showers I have ever seen in a campground. Everyone (including the owners and campers) were so friendly and helpful. We camped in our small 20 foot Pleasure Way, and the owners came over in the evening to make sure we had bathroom facilities in our rig before locking the restrooms for the night. We will definitely stay here again when in the area.

DETROIT -- Andy Dirks' recovery finally appeared to be heading in the right direction. After missing nearly two months with right Achilles' tendinitis, Dirks had begun baseball activities and hoped to start a rehab assignment sometime this week.
The Tigers outfielder is still hopeful he can start that rehab assignment soon, but following a workout Tuesday he reported soreness in the area and was temporarily shut down.
"It wasn't too good," said Tigers manager Jim Leyland when asked Thursday morning about the update he received on Dirks. "He was real good the day before, and then he came in yesterday sore. So we've backed off it a little bit again."
Leyland said Dirks has stopped doing any baseball-related activities. But Dirks sounded like he wouldn't be out for long.
"That's expected to be a little sore. I haven't done much on it," Dirks said. "That was the most I did on it, and I came in yesterday a little stiff."
The soreness didn't come as a surprise to Dirks, but it was a bit unexpected after he went through a week of workouts in Lakeland, Fla., without pain. However, Tuesday was admittedly the hardest he's pushed it.
Dirks met with the trainers in the morning and said rain hindered him from doing anything on the field, but he would "make something happen."
"They're not going to let me get out on the wet field," Dirks said. "So I'm going to go in and do stuff with [strength and conditioning coach] Javar [Gillette], and we'll make something happen today to see how it feels."
It's a minor setback, but a frustrating one for the 26-year-old Dirks, who was batting .328 before suffering the injury and being sent to the disabled list on May 31.
Leyland's said time and time again that it will require a good deal of at-bats in the Minors before Dirks is ready to return to the big league club. Dirks still isn't ruling out getting a few of those at-bats this weekend.
"It's still a possibility. It's definitely still a possibility," Dirks said. "It's getting better. But yesterday it's just a little sore. So why would we want to push it? It's already been two months. It's a little sore. Just go out there and keep running hard until it re-injures itself to what it was before? That doesn't make any sense."
Laird complements Fister's gem with assists
DETROIT -- After Albert Pujols' first-inning home run, Tigers starter Doug Fister didn't allow another Angels hitter to reach second base in Wednesday's 7-2 win. Much of that can be credited to Fister simply missing bats -- he had 10 strikeouts -- but catcher Gerald Laird also made a few nice plays.
Laird threw out two baserunners, which is impressive considering the Tigers throw out only 23 percent of runners -- the third-worst mark in the American League -- and the Angels have swiped the second-most bags (72).
"I just try to do what I can back there," Laird said after the game. "I felt really good, [and] that's probably the best I felt throwing to second base tonight. I just felt like I was in rhythm, and [Fister] gave me a chance to throw guys out."
The first try came in the fourth inning, when Pujols walked in his second at-bat and took off for second on a pitch in the dirt. It bounced away from Laird, but the catcher picked it up and fired to second for the out.
The second was a botched hit-and-run attempt in the sixth. Howie Kendrick struck out on a full count, and Alberto Callaspo was easily caught stealing.
"I got one ball where I just kind of made a good play," Laird said. "I blocked it and was able to make a good throw and get him. ... Those are easy outs. Those are free outs for [Fister]."
Tigers manager Jim Leyland spoke prior to the game about the complicated process of catching a runner, which is much more complex than one might believe. There are a few aspects, but he said the most important was the pitcher's delivery to the plate.
The best pitcher, Leyland said, had a quick slide step and usually got the ball -- from the beginning of his windup to the catcher's glove -- in about 1.1 seconds. A slower pitcher had a time above 1.4.
The skipper used Fister as an example and said, because of his quick delivery, the Angels wouldn't be too active on the basepaths.
"He's like 1.1 home. If they steal a base tonight it will be totally because we made a bad throw or they missed a hit and run and they happened to make it," Leyland said Wednesday. "They won't steal tonight. They'll hit and run, but they won't steal."
Although there weren't many opportunities, it proved to be an accurate prediction.
When asked about how the best basestealers overcome a quick delivery, Leyland said: "The great basestealers usually don't go 1.1."
That might be why, despite the Tigers allowing the second-most steals in the AL (75), Fister hasn't allowed any, and only two have bothered to try.
Quick hits
Fister was set to finish off Wednesday's victory against the Angels, but after taking a line drive off the chest in the seventh inning, he stiffened up in the eighth and never went back out to the mound. It was enough to scare Leyland, but he was calmed following a talk with the right-hander Thursday morning.
"He's fine. I was just talking to him [and] he's a little sore, but he's all right," Leyland said. "I got nervous because [I thought] maybe it was the oblique thing, but it wasn't."
Drew Smyly, who remains sidelined with a right intercostal strain, will miss his second start Sunday. Leyland is still unsure if Smyly will need a brief rehab appearance, but he said it's looking more and more likely.
"I assume he'll probably have to go out to pitch somewhere, but I can't swear to that," Leyland said. "It's always a tough thing to decide: How long is a guy out before he can just come back here without going out?"
The Tigers have won nine of their last 11 games. Since June 27, they are batting .297 as a team with 32 doubles, 20 home runs and 100 runs scored. The team is second in the American League in average and hits (189) during that span and third in runs scored.
The Tigers' pitchers set a new first-half American League record in collective strikeouts before the All-Star break with 715. They are picking up where they left off in the second half. The team is up to 768 K's and owns a punchout rate of 8.45 per nine innings, the highest rate in club history.

NEW YORK (MainStreet) — How many road trips have we all been on with parents or friends who want to stop off to see the "World's Largest Ball of Twine" or even have a stopover in that now-famous place in New Mexico, Roswell, where aliens supposedly crashed in the 1950s?
Those fun stops to see oddities and stretch our legs oftentimes turns into a town's livelihood or, at the very least, the thing that puts that town on the map. (They can even worth fighting about. There are two claims to the World's Largest Ball of Twine, one in Darwin, Minn., that was built by one person and another in Cawker City, Kan., which was built by a community.)
The Corn Palace in Mitchell, S.D., made completely with corn, is one of the many unusual attractions in the United States that put a town on the map.
The Corn Palace was built in 1892 to showcase the corn crop and help attract people to move to the area, says Mark Schilling, the attraction's director. In 1905, when the town was in the running for the capital of South Dakota, a new palace was built and in 1921, a third.
"Each time, it got larger with more amenities," Schilling says. "People started coming from all around to trade crops and for the annual celebration."
Today, the Corn Palace attracts road trippers from all over the country, who stop to see the 12 murals made completely of corn. The murals, which use a dozen natural colors of corn, are changed every year, based on a theme decided upon by a committee and the artistry of several different corn artists.

Featured Junior Fiction
By David Ives (J Ives)
Escaping his mother's civilized plans, Billy Christmas runs off to the Wild West and becomes a letter-writer and mail-carrier-of-sorts to both cowboys and Indians, while trying to steer clear of those pesky, hot-tempered gunfighters. When the "e" falls off his sign, Billy becomes Scrib to all those who use his services. After receiving several death threats, Scrib decides to find another line of work, with mixed results. Grammar junkies will find this imaginative spelling (Scrib uses his "instinks" to reunite a rancher with his "full-upuous" lady love) and phonetically-inventive idioms particularly delightful.

Cold Cereal
Scott is new to the company town owned by the world's most famous cereal producer. Unfortunately, the advertising for a little magic in every box is true, and the magic is stolen from the inhabitants of fairy who are kidnapped and then drained. Scott has the rare gift to be able to see the beings from fairy without the aid of the special glasses used by the bad guys from the cereal company.
At school, Scott befriends a set of twins —a smart boy with a genius twin sister who looks nothing like him—and it seems they're part of a cereal-company experiment. All becomes dangerously complex, and nothing is really resolved in what must be a new series.
The author is the creative genius behind two very funny poetry books, Frankenstein Makes a Sandwich and Other Stories You're Sure to Like and Frankenstein Takes the Cake, both found in J 811 R 329 and in the library's read-a-long collection.
He's also the illustrator for the hilarious The Dirty Cowboy by Amy Timberlake (P-Timberlake) and the author/illustrator of the picture book Pssst!, a story of an unusual visit to the zoo (P Rex).

Gorilla City (The Amazing Adventures of Charlie Small)
Middle school readers who like the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series can find numerous read-alikes to try, some in diary format and some not. Many have girl protagonists, like Jim Benton's Dear Dumb Diary series and Ruth McNally Barshaw's Ellie McDoodle. Some have multiple voices, like Jim Angleberger's funny The Strange Case of Origami Yoda or Kate Klise's Regarding the-- series. Yet many fans of the Wimpy Kid books are much younger than the sixth-grade protagonist of that series and might relate better to a character like Charlie Small, an eight-year-old who, in a series of books, records in his diary how he has been alive for hundreds of years surviving death-defying adventures at every turn. Reads at the pace of a choose-your-own-adventure novel, with crocodile wrestling, snake attacks, rhino rides, and gorilla kidnappings.

Soldier Bear
Soldier Bear is a WWII novel based on a true story about Polish soldiers who walk from German-occupied Poland to Iran to join the British Army. In Iran, they adopt a baby bear cub that is almost dead from starvation. They put milk in an empty Vodka bottle. The bear sleeps with the soldiers, and even when it grows to six-feet, still sleeps by sucking on his adopted mother's fingers. An officer, impressed by the bear taking its place in a munitions hand-off line, issued an emblem for the berets, trucks, etc. of the transport company of the 2nd Polish Corps of a bear holding a large munitions shell. While there are a few details of the horrors of war, this book is, overall, heartwarming. It is rare to find a children's book with all adult characters. I believe this book would appeal to adults as well.
It was originally written in Dutch. The Batchelder is an ALA award for the best book translated into English for young readers.

Lost & Found
By Shaun Tan (Call #: J Tan)
Tan, an Australian artist, became well known with The Arrival, the award-winning, wordless graphic novel about the immigration experience in alien landscapes.
Three short stories/graphic novels make up this collection. The first story, "The Red Tree" is also available in picture book format, published in 2003 in Vancouver. It's a surreal, largely graphic, description of depression. Imaginative and weird gizmos populate "Lost and Found," a story that addresses finding one's place in the world. "The Rabbits" is an abstract statement about the overpowering of one ecosystem and culture by another. All fabulous!
Shaun Tan won a 2011 Academy Award in Short Film (animated) for the film version of "Lost and Found." In March of 2011, he won children's literature's most lucrative award (about $1,000,000), the Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award 2011 given by Sweden for excellence in children's literature. He followed those awards with the "Best Artist" Hugo, awarded for excellence in Science Fiction.Reviewed by Patricia Castelli

Heart of a Samurai: Based on the True Story of Manjiro Nakahama
Manjiro is 14 when his fishing boat is driven far from the coast of Japan by a storm and wrecked on a deserted island. He is the youngest of the five companions, and they struggle to survive without adequate food or water. When rescued by a whaling ship, Manjiro is at first fearful of the barbarians that have taken him on board, but he is befriended by the captain and becomes the first Japanese to come to America.
The extraordinary life of a simple fisherman is transformed when Manjiro learns to read and write in English. He also learns the principles of navigation on the high seas. Japan was isolationist for 250 years at the time Manjiro makes his way back to Japan as a young man. The isolation was enforced by putting to death anyone that might have been influenced by the greater world. Manjiro and his companions know the risk when they return to their homeland, but Manjiro is able to convince the local authorities of their need to know more of the western world. Because of his knowledge, he is made a Samurai, unheard of for a commoner in his day.

Moon over Manifest
Abilene Tucker has ridden the rails with her father as he looks for work for about as long as she can remember. But now it is 1936, and he decides it is time she has a home. He sends her alone to Manifest, the small town where he settled in his teen years. She knows no one in that small Kansas town, but she follows her father's instructions to find the man who also took him in years ago. There she stays in a room that was once her father's and under a loose floorboard she finds treasures from the past and hints about a mystery that remains unsolved. She listens to the stories told by long-time residents, and she goes through newspaper articles from 1918 looking for hints of her father's past. Soon it is clear that someone doesn't want her asking questions about things that are better forgotten.

The St. Louis Cardinals felt pretty good about losing Albert Pujols -- or well enough, anyway -- because they had Lance Berkman at hand, available to shift from right field to Pujols's old spot at first base. In fact, that might have been the plan all along.
Either way, it worked out really well!
For about two weeks. Berkman hit like Babe Ruth, while Pujols was hitting like Mario Mendoza with his new team, the Whatevers of Whatever. Then Berkman hurt his knee, and eventually Pujos started hitting like Pujols.
Berkman opened the season with the Cardinals, played for a week, went on the Disabled List, came back and played for another week, and now he's been out of action since the 19th of May.
Good news, though:
Berkman will go to Cincinnati with the club and hopes to be activated as early as Saturday. Said there was no need for a rehab assignment.— B.J. Rains (@BJRains) July 12, 2012
Oddly enough, the Cardinals haven't really missed Berkman, who was their best hitter last year. In his absence, Allen Craig -- who entered the season without a regular job -- has played more first base than anyone, and this year he has been the Cardinals' best hitter.
Which, with Berkman coming back, leaves manager Mike Matheny with more good hitters than he can really use. Oh, and that's not even considering rookie Matt Carpenter, who's also played some first base and also been really good. If only one of the Cardinals' first basemen could play center field or second base.

Majorelle Garden in Marrakech
Located at the heart of Marrakech, Majorelle gardens are one of the most visited sites in Morocco.
Created by the French painter Jacques Majorelle (1886-1962), it took him almost forty years to develop it with passion. A walk through this enchanting place transposes you into another world, the time of a visit.

The earliest fossil of the homo sapiens family (human beings) was found in Ethiopia, dating back more than 200,000 years. Compared to this length of time, even the "ancient Sumerians" from 6000 B.C. are drooling toddlers.
Let's mention a few African heroes you may have heard of, for inspiration in the face of the continued economic inequality and violence which plague Africa today: Nelson Mandela, first democratically elected President of South Africa, who fought against apartheid and served 27 years in prison while advocating freedom and peace. Haile Salassie, Emperor of Ethiopia, who resisted Mussolini and the fascist Italian invasion of WWII, and who is worshipped as an incarnation of God by the Rastafari movement. Kwame Nkrumah, first Prime Minister of Ghana, advocate of uniting Africa in Pan-Africanism. Fela Kuti, inventor of Afrobeat music, who declared his home to be an independent state, ran for president of Nigeria, and to whose funeral ONE MILLION PEOPLE came to pay their respects.
In June 2001 the African Union was formed, consisting of 53 African States organized, like in the EU, around common economic and political development.

Senate Committee Holds Hearing in WV on Pipeline Safety
From the Democratic Press Office –
Hearing to be held Jan 28, 2013, at 12:00 AM in Charleston, WV.
WASHINGTON, D.C.— Chairman John D. (Jay) Rockefeller IV announced that the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation will hold a field
hearing on "Pipeline Safety: An On-the-Ground Look at Safeguarding the Public."
This hearing will examine the state of the nation's pipeline infrastructure in
the wake of the Sissonville, W.Va. explosion and evaluate the Department of
Transportation's implementation of the Pipeline Safety, Regulatory Certainty,
and Job Creation Act of 2011 (H.R. 2845), which became law last January and was largely based on legislation Rockefeller cosponsored. This forum will also provide an opportunity to review the findings of a Government Accountability Office study, expected on January 23, about the ability of transmission pipeline facility operators to respond to a hazardous liquid or gas release.
"This will be the fourth Commerce Committee hearing on the serious issue of pipeline safety in nearly three years," said Rockefeller. "Passing comprehensive pipeline safety legislation last year was a good step, but I did push for even stronger provisions in that bill – and we must assess where implementation of that law stands, and whether future actions are needed."

EYEWITNESS LOCAL NEWSKy. Mine Inspector Resigns Amid Inquiries
from Eyewitness News Online
Reported: Feb. 14, 2014 3:42 PM EST
FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) -- A longtime state mine inspector has resigned amid inquiries about his dealings with a Pike County lawmaker who owns coal mines.
Media reported that Kentucky Division of Mine Reclamation and Enforcement inspector Kelly Shortridge submitted a one-sentence resignation letter Jan. 31 saying his last day would be Friday. It did not give a reason.
The Lexington Herald-Leader reported that the U.S. Interior Department's inspector general and the Kentucky Executive Branch Ethics Commission are conducting separate inquiries into the relationship between Shortridge and Democratic state Rep. Keith Hall of Phelps. The newspaper cited records it obtained through a state open records request.
Shortridge did not return calls for comment.
Hall told The Courier-Journal that he hasn't talked to Shortridge and has "no idea" why he resigned. He declined further comment Friday.

News: 50 Cent Silences Tony Yayo, Lloyd Banks & Young Buck Chatter
Wednesday, Dec 26, 2012 11:35AM
G-Unit head 50 Cent has let the world know he is most focused on his own career heading into the new year, fielding questions related to estranged group members and Young Buck.
Promising to take a new approach to 2013, Fif threw back questions related to his past and present associates landing on the upcoming Street King Immortal LP.
"New year,New approach, I'm not afraid of change.this Sh!t is going perfect STREET KING IMMORTAL will not fall short of a classic.#SMSaudio," Fif tweeted December 26th.
"N*gga you need a banks or a yayo album?RT @LucaBrasi718:@50cent I Need Banks & Yayo On That Album"
"Buck in jail fool SMSaudioRT @YoungCaisar: Hey @50cent I Need young buck On That Album,I think its cool !" (50 Cent's Twitter)
Last September, the music executive admitted he did not keep in constant contact with his G-Unit brethren.
"I see Yayo all the time. He actually comes through -- he'll pop up. We'll do that, but away from it when we come home I be busy working on something and they supposed to be doing the music, writing the music," 50 told Angie Martinez. "Now it's like I think I've enabled them. I've damaged that by being so close to it that they just go. Their way of dealing with things is not dealing with it so you can have people that work for you who you work for because they're just waiting for you to do it. Or you don't say anything and there's no urgency -- I don't talk to them. We're still friends, it's just the relationship is different. We grown - the issues came up where that they feel like it's hard for them to be the man while I'm around." ("The Angie Martinez Show")
A month prior, Tony Yayo addressed controversial Fif remarks and denied having any tensions toward him.
"Who started Gunit me that's who.," he tweeted August 12th.
"Why would I blow shots at 50 the media want see Gunit fail so bad we won to much in front of n*ggas everybody running with our format." (Tony Yayo's Twitter)
In August, 50 spoke on Buck landing 18 months behind bars on a gun possession conviction.
"I think it's unfortunate. I don't wish that on nobody, having to sit in the joint. But I don't know how to respond in a nice way to blatant disrespect that was offered. I'm the kind of person that I don't let go of things easy, I'll be honest with you. If I'm the driving force behind why the situation is what it is, I'll accept it. But when I can't see what I've done to offer it, then I think that that was just a plan that didn't go right. If it went the way they wanted it to, there would still be no white flag. That goes across the board...even with my personal relationships with women. It's always people looking for what they want out of it." (XXL Mag)

Monday, it appeared Chicago Cubs righthander Ryan Dempster was on his way to becoming a member of the Atlanta Braves.
But Dempster, who has 10-and-5 rights, had not signed off on the deal, and Tuesday, he was in the Cubs' clubhouse in Pittsburgh as the team prepares to play the Pirates, saying he could take up to a week to decide:
"I want to look everything over before I make a decision, and I've got time to do that," Dempster said Tuesday. "There's a week before the Trade Deadline."
Dempster, 35, who leads the Major Leagues with a 2.11 ERA, is scheduled to start Wednesday for the Cubs against the Pirates, and expects to make that start.
As a player with 10 and 5 rights, Dempster has veto power over any deal. He wouldn't specify which teams he was considering.
"I'm just trying to look over everything and make the best decision for me and for my family and what I need to do," he said.
The Cubs appear to have lost quite a bit of leverage due to the snafus; as noted by Joe Sheehan:
Dempster starting tomorrow for the Cubs knocks about 10% of his remaining value off for whoever trades for him.

Environment campaigners call for more information over Pembroke Dock oily sludge electricity plans (From Milford Mercury)
Get involved: send your pictures, video, news and views by texting MM NEWS to 80360, or email us
Environment campaigners call for more information over Pembroke Dock oily sludge electricity plans
6:00pm Tuesday 18th February 2014 in News
ENVIRONMENTAL campaigners are calling for greater clarity in a planning application for a facility at Pembroke Dock to convert oily sludge into electricity.
The planning application, submitted to Pembrokeshire County Council by Cardiff-based Barcud Energy Ltd, is for a 2,613sqm development at Waterloo Industrial Estate on land owned by Ledwood Mechanical Engineering Ltd.
According to planning documents, the process involves converting "residual product" from the Pembrokeshire oil refinery industry into gas to "generate low carbon electricity" for the National Grid.
Proposals include the construction of a 699sqm pyrolysis building, a 254sqm gas turbine building, a gas storage silo and a 40m high stack. The facility could generate up to 6MW and create 12 full-time jobs.
Pembrokeshire Friends of the Earth objects to the application because it is "so obscurely described, there is a risk that many members of the public will not understand what the applicant intends to build - is it a power station or an incinerator?"
Campaigners argue that "at the very least 'oil burning power generating plant'" should be included in the application's title.
The group's spokesman Eleanor Clegg said: "We believe it is essential that this application be re-submitted with the nature of the development much more clearly declared in its title to ensure that our democratic rights are upheld.
"We fear that members of the public have not been formally notified by this planning application regarding what is actually proposed, thus they will not be alerted to the possibility of aspects of this development to which they could well raise objections – for example, flue stacks and the emissions from them; heat rejection cooling towers; noise; vehicle movements, especially those associated with bringing fuel to site; risks associated with the bulk storage of fuel."
Speaking as a resident only, Pembroke Dock town councillor Margaret Murton said the application was "really quite frightening".
She said: "I'm sick of them dumping dirty stuff on Pembroke Dock, like Pembroke Dock doesn't matter."
Cllr Murton said she was concerned about the inappropriate site, potential pollution and transportation issues.
"It's just not on - it's right on the edge of town. It's part of the town," she added.
The deadline for comments is February 26.
