Grey clouds race over the National Mall, seemingly as fast as the airliners that would normally be making their approach to National. The airport is still closed.
It is 2018.
The city is reeling from a surge of floodwater sent up the Potomac by the fierce winds of a slow-moving hurricane, and is preparing for a second punch.
Will the floodwaters gush over Washington DC's levee? Will they cover Constitution Avenue and threaten the capital's Maginot Line of bureaucratic fortresses?
A touch of New Orleans
When we think of levees, we think of New Orleans. But DC also has a levee. The problem is that our levee is not very good, says Gerry Galloway, engineering professor at the University of Maryland.
I recently joined Galloway and members of American Water Resources Association to learn about our capital's alarmingly porous flood defenses and what's being done to beef them up.
Climate change is already fueling more frequent extreme weather events, Galloway said. Meanwhile, we continue to pave the Potomac's watershed with concrete and asphalt, which increases runoff and intensifies floods.
It all seemed so remote on this autumn afternoon. The warm sun, the lively scene of tourists, bicyclists, and joggers―how many of them knew that the grass-covered berm that parallels the Reflecting Pool is DC's levee?
As we stood on that levee, Galloway challenged us to imagine floodwaters sweeping in from the Potomac during a category four hurricane.
"It could push as much as 20 feet of water onto Constitution Avenue," he said. The flood would inundate an enormous crescent-shaped swath of downtown DC, from the Ellipse, through Federal Triangle, all the way to Ft. McNair.
A lot of it has to do with the city's origins. A large part of DC once belonged to the river, either as marshlands or as open water, he said. As the city grew, the river was forced to retreat to make way for houses, government agencies and our famous monuments.
The river remains determined to win back what it has lost. In 1936, the Potomac aimed an almost unimaginable 486,000 cubic feet of water per second (cfs) directly at the city.
Congress ordered the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to build a levee to protect the city that would stand up to a flow of 700,000 cfs.
But the plan was never completed. Parts of the levee are still too low. It also has two big holes at 23rd and 17th streets. When flood warnings sound, park employees are summoned to plug up the gaps with sandbags, dirt, and plastic sheeting.
The final straw came in July 2006 when nine inches of rain fell in 24 hours. Constitution Avenue disappeared under three feet of water. IRS headquarters had to close for six months. Justice also shut down, and the new auditorium at the National Archives was damaged.
Now, though, the Corps of Engineers and the National Park Service are filling the long-standing gaps in DC's flood defenses.
No more sandbags
At 17th street we peered through a chain-link fence at a pair of monolithic masonry walls nearing completion. In the future, when floodwaters threaten, workers will attach a removable post and panel barrier to the walls. In other vulnerable places, the levee is being raised and new works are being built.
At the end of the tour, we peered into the great hole at 15th Street that will soon be the National Museum of African American History and Culture. It's a prime site, right next to the Washington Monument.
It is also the lowest spot on whole Mall.

Car dealer in court facing charges of lying about miles on the clock
Updated 2:56pm Tuesday 17th June 2014 in News By Nazia Dewji, Chief reporter
A car dealer is facing charges of lying to customers about the number of miles on the clock of vehicles in his showrooms.
Farman Tayebi, who owns Direct Car Sales branches in New Malden and Croydon, appeared at Kingston Crown Court on Tuesday, June 17 to face 10 unfair trading standard counts against him and 10 against his company.
The dealer, who lives in Putney, has been accused of misleading customers with false information and engaging in reckless commercial practice.
In one of the charges, Mr Tayebi is alleged to have sold a used PeugeotRCZ that had travelled 77,627 miles to a customer who was told it had only driven 37,000 miles in May last year.
The charges date from June 16, 2012, to April 28, 2014, and include trading offences allegedly committed by Mr Tayebi or the company at its Coombe Road, Croydon, or Burlington Road, New Malden branches.
Mr Tayebi, of Putney Bridge Road, Putney, was not asked to enter a plea at his first court appearance this week.
He was given bail and told to return to Kingston Crown Court to enter a plea on September 2.
Last year Mr Tayebi bought a piece of scrubland from Kingston Council - a 0.53 acre site at the end of Rookwood Avenue, New Malden, where he had hoped to expand his dealership.
He had cut down some trees and started work on the designated "green corridor" site in attempt to get it ready for a planning application he had submitted to create a "private car park store".
The planning application was later rejected by Merton Council.

Monday, 1:21 p.m.:
The victims of Saturday evening's motorcycle vs. car crash at Street Road and Knowles Avenue in Upper Southampton have been identified as John "Jack" Edel, 52, of the Trevose section of Lower Southampton, and Ellen Kelly, 50, of Penndel.
Edel, who was pronounced dead shortly after arriving by ambulance at Abington Memorial Hospital, was driving the black and metallic colored Yamaha motorcycle. Kelly, the passenger, was flung from the bike and was pronounced dead at the scene, police reported in a release. Both of the victims were wearing helmets, Detective Craig Rudisill confirmed.
Police said a preliminary investigation revealed the bike was traveling eastbound on Street Road when it struck the front of a light colored Chevrolet Impala. Investigation revealed the Impala was attempting to make a left turn from westbound Street Road onto Knowles Avenue.
The driver of the Impala, who suffered only minor injuries, was identified by police as 28-year-old Royersford resident Kenneth Kosza. His passenger was Andrea Kosza, 26. Both were transported to St. Mary Medical Center and later released.
Both Edel and Kelly were employed part-time by the Neshaminy School District in support positions, officials said.
For more than 20 years, Edel owned and operated Jack's Drains, a Feasterville business specializing in plumbing, drain and sewer cleaning. According to Edel's son, Jonathan, his father began driving school buses after the recent economic downturn.
Edel's son said his family was shocked to hear of the motorcycle wreck Saturday evening. Jonathan and his two sisters - Kristina and Rebecca - remain in a state of shock as of Monday afternoon, he said.
"I remember him as the most giving person I've ever known," Jonathan said of his father, who grew up in Huntingdon Valley and moved to Trevose many years ago.
Kelly, a mother of two, had worked as a lunch aide at Carl Sandberg Middle School and Albert Schweitzer Elementary School in the Neshaminy School District for several years. She also worked part time as a crossing guard in her hometown of Penndel, where was known a someone who was always very pleasant and nice to to deal with, according to the borough's mayor, Bob Winkler.
One of Kelly's two children will visit the scene of the accident Monday afternoon in an attempt to get closure, a friend of Kelly said.
Jonathan said his father and mother were married and was unclear of the relationship between Edel and Kelly.
Officers from Upper Southampton and Northampton townships were back out at the scene of the crash Sunday afternoon taking measurements for the final accident report.
Authorities report the investigation is still ongoing and are requesting witnesses contact Det. Craig Rudisill at 215-364-5000 ext. 117 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

This is actually a very good thing. I'm in the business and have been doing mortgages for a long time. I'm not just saying this because of the business. People like me are doing a great business through all the turmoil. This is no different than when interest rates were 16%+ in the 80's and no different than the liquidity crunch of the 90's. The move upward in the conforming limit would mean many troubled homeowners and non-troubled could refinance at lower rates. Many can buy now that wouldn't be able to buy otherwise and I'm speaking of responsible wage earners or business owners. They will still have to qualify for the loan in terms of income, assets, and credit. California and other states are far behind the standard in terms of the conforming limit. Hawaii and Alaska have higher conforming limits. Other high cost states should have the same. $625,000 would still not be enough for some people in New York or California to purchase under first time buyer type programs.

I have a feeling the Mets are going to be wishing they took Olt and moved on.
I have a feeling the Mets are going to be wishing they took Olt and moved on.

The Mets will keep Dickey because in the end it means a few more wins and a few more millions as far as team revenue goes.
I think this is the wrong move. Trading him is the smart move. This team has no outfield. If dickey is resigned i think niese will be traded soon
It looks like the market just isn't there for him now.
Right now my prediction is this: Mets re-sign Dickey to a team friendly extension. Then they re-evaluate the trade market, Dickey's performance and the team's needs at the all star break. I hate it, because you would really prefer to have the decision behind you and be able to gauge where the team is headed... but I see it going down like that. If Sandy can get Wheeler for Beltran (at his age) from a desperate team at the break, then why should we settle for Olt for Dickey?
As to Niese: I don't understand how we could deal him right now. First, youth and his affordable contract are the 2 most attractive things about him right now - and that's exactly what we're after... so why give it up? Second, how much more would he fetch in a trade than Dickey? Not much. If you're gonna trade 1 of them, it's GOT to be Dickey.

I'm much higher on Niese then a lot of people on here. I wouldn't trade him for anyone but Myers straight up. I wouldn't even trade him for Upton as IDK if last year he regressed or just had a sub par year. I really think he will develop into a solid number 2 starter for us this year.
Presenting the 2013 New York Mets Outfield.
All in all not trading Dickey or extending him is a disservice to both Met fans and R.A. Dickey. They need to pay the man or give him up for someone who will. R.A. Dickey > New York Mets haha. Its bad when one player is more popular then the entire team.
Presenting the 2013 New York Mets Outfield.
1. Dickey (#1 type starter)
2. Niese (#2/#3 type starter)
3. Harvey (#2/#3 type starter, upside of #1?)
4. Wheeler (#2/#3 type starter, upside of #1?)
5. Gee (low end #4 or very high end #5 type starter, upside of... 3? Injuries.)
That is an AMAZING staff, especially if Niese ends up being as good as you think he'll be.
Then there's Santana (I'm not sure where he fits into the rotation, or what he is at this stage in his career. He's still good, though, and I would still get excited to see him pitch, even if he was the #5.. but he isn't a #5 type starter at all, not even at this stage in his career. Then, who knows if he'll stay healthy but we'll see).

Replace Wheeler with Santana because Wheeler will be in AAA, once Santana runs out of gas, Wheeler will replace him. If Santana is pitching real well maybe you can call up Wheeler and deal Santana at the deadline for something(if you pay all his $$$)
If we keep dickey, which we should now because every offer has been **** and not worth it, we should trade Gee for the best outfielder we can get for him. Loosing him if we keep dickey, niese will not be a big loss but he could give us something pretty good in return.
We need to pray Santana has a good year so we can trade him at the deadline
I'm ok with re-signing Dickey. The Mets still would have to do something about the outfield, but I'm an R.A. fan and I believe he can pitch at a high level for the next few years.
Harvey is going to be an ace. He has the demeanor, make-up, stuff, and durability.
If Wheeler fulfills his potential, then we will be money.
AdamRubinESPN Sandsy Alderson acknowledges he does expect the 2013 Opening Day roster to look similar to the end of 2012.
Ninety percent Ill spend on good times, women, and Irish whiskey. The other ten percent Ill probably waste.
- Tug McGraw, on his plans for his $75,000 salary
This is the same guy who said we have no outfield. So I guess we will have no outfield in 2013 either.
If the Mets are not going to trade Dickey, then they should spend some money this off-season. Why not re-sign Dickey and sign Cody Ross, AJ, and one or two bullpen arms? That would make for a competitive enough team for this year, and hopefully generate some good momentum going into 2014.

Finding instruments in the "Sytrus" is extremely frustrating. Apparently the have no words for french horns, tubas etc, the brass instrument names are fat, greasy, greasy2 etc. couldn't believe it. They have a trumpet but it's nowhere near the other brass, I really had to give up because it annoyed me too much. I guess I'll have to invest in something like Sibelius.

Getting Involved
Matt Black (currently D3) presents his research project at AADR Local Research Day
The Dental Student Research Program provides exceptional dental students with experience in research. Two sources of funding are available to support qualified dental students: The Student Research Traineeships from the Dows Student Research Fellowship and the Iowa Dental Research Grants are made available through the Dows Institute of Dental Research in the College of Dentistry. These awards are designed to give students a structured research experience extending over a three month period between May and September.
Dental students are eligible for the Dows Research Fellowship and Iowa Dental Research Grant. For either award, students must be sponsored by a faculty mentor, who will provide guidance during the three- month period.
In addition to learning about a specific research area, all awardees gain experience in working with a laboratory team and with a dental scientist, the faculty mentor who, through training and experience, has achieved recognition as a contributing member of the scientific community.
The application process is highly competitive, requiring submission of a research proposal and a thorough review by the Student Research Committee. The application deadline is April 1.
Dental students involved in research are invited to register for 1-2 s.h. of academic credit in the Research Honors Course (112:190). Registration is optional for Dows Awardees, Iowa Dental Research Grant recipients, and other awardees. Awardees are encouraged to attend segments of the Research Methodology course (92:216) offered each summer in the Dows Institute and research seminars relevant to their projects.

1 package of large white feathers
PVA glue
A little water
Foam brush
Small pearl beads
Ultra-fine glitter in lavender
Hot glue gun
Glue stick
Spread the newspaper out on your table and lay the feathers you wish to turn into sugar quills on it.
Thin down the glue with a little water until it is milk-like in consistency, mixing with the foam brush.
Carefully brush the watered down glue on the feathers, making sure to follow the direction of the fibers.
Sprinkle the glitter over the feathers, then move them onto a clean sheet of newspaper to dry.
Once dry, move the feathers back to the original sheet of newspaper and repeat the process for the other side.
Tie 8-inch (20.32 cm) pieces of ribbon into bows, leaving about a 3-inch (7.62 cm) loop for hanging your ornament.
Using the hot glue gun, glue the ribbon onto the pointed end of the feather, then glue a pearl bead over the knot of the bow.
Hang on your tree and watch them sparkle.

Vacation Rentals in Cuernavaca, Central Mexico
Cuernavaca, Central Mexico Vacation Rentals and Tourism
Treat yourself right this time by planning a Mexico vacation that doesn't hold back. Between the exotic scenery and the Cuernavaca vacation rentals you won't quite know what to do with yourself (that doesn't mean it won't soon become clear).

Celebs go all out on their weddings -- but how much do they end up costing? Here's the Forbes list of the most expensive celebrity weddings.
Celebrities have been known to go all-out for exotic vacations and expensive nights on the town, and it seems that weddings are no exception. Rumor has it that Salma Hayek was set to spend $3.5 million for her nuptials before she called it off. Wondering what other celebs have spent on their big day? Lucky for you, we found a Forbes list of the most expensive Hollywood weddings! Check it out.
Why have one wedding when you can have two? That's what model-actress Elizabeth Hurley did when she married Indian businessman Arun Nayar in March 2007. Three hundred guests (including designer Valentino and singer Elton John) attended the first ceremony at the medieval Sudeley Castle in Gloucestershire, England. Next, the couple went to India for a Hindu ceremony at Umaid Bhawan Palace in Jodhpur where the couple stayed at the Maharani suites that cost upward of $10,000 per night. The bride and groom eventually logged in eight days of celebration.
When pop diva Christina Aguilera married music executive Jordan Bratman in November 2005, the power couple decided to get away from the limelight by throwing a three-day event in California wine country. On the final night, guests met at the Staglin Family Vineyard for a winter-themed wedding. The couple said their "I dos" in a pew-filled, stained-glass Castilian castle that was built over a swimming pool. Afterward, everyone made their way to the tented reception. Inside, elaborate decorations included silver drapery, a sparkling chandelier and white roses.
This Oscar-winning couple spared no expense for their elaborate New York wedding in 2000. Guests received special hologram-embedded invitations that they needed for access to the event space at New York's Plaza Hotel—talk about exclusive! Sean Connery and Jack Nicholson were two of the lucky few that made it inside. Catherine wore an antique Chantilly lace gown by Christian Lacroix that she accessorized with a tiara. Later in the evening, guests looked on as Grammy-winner Bonnie Tyler wowed the audience with a private performance.
The Material Girl went all-out when she married British film director Guy Ritchie in December 2000. The pop icon decided on a royal event at Scotland's Skibo Castle—the couple booked all 21 of the estate's rooms for guests, who included Sting and Gwyneth Paltrow. Madonna accessorized her strapless, cream, silk gown by Stella McCartney with a 1910 diamond tiara (once worn by Monaco's Princess Grace) while Guy wore a customary Scottish kilt. Following the ceremony and dinner, everyone headed down to the castle's basement to dance the night away.
In January 2005, real estate mogul Donald Trump married model Melania Knauss in an extravagant Florida wedding. The affair began with the bride walking down the aisle in a strapless Christian Dior masterpiece complete with 300 feet of satin beaded with 1,500 crystals and ending with an exquisite 50-pound, 13-foot train. Following the ceremony, guests gathered at Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate where they enjoyed the sounds of a 36-piece orchestra during an elaborate meal catered by celebrity chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten.

Alan Julian: Nightmare on debut, but I will move on
8:10am Saturday 24th November 2012 in Latest Football By Andrew Penman
NEWPORT County AFC goalkeeper Alan Julian admits he was disappointed with his part in defeat to Hyde and he can't wait to put things right at Welling.
Julian had a competitive debut to forget last Saturday, conceding three goals in a surprise loss to the Blue Square Bet Premier strugglers at Rodney Parade.
That was County's third defeat in four games with Julian proving no luckier than Lenny Pidgeley – the man he replaced in goal.
The former Stevenage stopper is not hiding from the fact that he was below par but he believes today's FA Trophy tie is the ideal opportunity for the Exiles to put their poor league form behind them.
"Obviously it was a disappointing start but we've got a lot of strong characters in this dressing room and we've shown before we can bounce back," said the 29-year-old.
"All teams have blips and results suggest we've had one but I think we're playing well and we just need to cut out a few errors, myself included.
"Personally I was disappointed to let in three goals. I always want to keep a clean sheet because that's like scoring a goal for a goalkeeper.
"It wasn't a great start for me but we're all looking forward to putting that right at Welling."
Julian was disappointed to hear boos at the final whistle last Saturday but accepts that fans have the right to express their frustrations.
"If they pay their money to get in they're entitled to their opinion," he said.
"It hurts us as much as it hurts them and we're trying our best to get back on the right track."
The Trophy is a special competition for County having made it to the final at Wembley last year where they were edged out by York City.
Julian went one better with Stevenage in 2007 when they became the first team to win a trophy at the new Wembley with victory over Kidderminster Harriers.
"I've got great memories of this tournament and to see the support that the club took down there for the final last year was phenomenal," said Julian.
"It's a great day out for everyone and we all want to experience that again if we can, the manager has made that clear, but no games are easy, the Yate game proved that, and we want to avoid another result like that."
Boss Justin Edinburgh has options in defence with Ismail Yakubu back from suspension and Byron Anthony also available to make his debut but Andrew Hughes (ankle) is doubtful.
* County's home fixture against Wrexham, originally scheduled for Saturday, January 5, has been brought forward to Friday, January 4 (kick-off 7.45pm).
And the match at Luton, scheduled for Saturday, February 16, has also been brought forward to Friday, February 15 (kick-off 7.45pm).
Both matches will be shown live on Premier Sports TV.

COUNTYVOICE says...
really he shouldnt have been given a comeback straight away in the important league match but earned his place , perhaps making his debut against welling.
pidgely has done remarkably well since coming in and must have been a kick in the face to be dropped.
but good luck today julian.
good luck to to bryon anthony hope he can provide the quality defensive cover replacement that is so obviously lacking at the moment

The Jurgen Klinsmann era took a downturn on Friday night when the United States fell to Costa Rica, 1-0, on home soil. It wasn't a pretty performance for the U.S. and now they are two matches into Klinsmann's reign without a win. It won't get any easier on Tuesday either when the Yanks square off against Belgium in Brussels.
For all the talk about the Yanks' trouble finding a competent striker, they have had their share of problems at the back as well. Carlos Bocanegra gives the team a leader in the center and someone who reads the game well, but he continues to age. Michael Orozco Fiscal has started both U.S. matches under Klinsmann and while he hasn't been a disaster, if he is the best that the U.S. has then they are in trouble. There's still the troublesome left back spot too, where Edgar Castillo has been nothing short of horrendous.
A good back line can have trouble against Belgium so the U.S. back line is surely in for a test. The highly touted Romelu Lukaku is a massive threat up top. Eden Hazard joins him in the category of amazingly talent Belgian youngsters and Alex Witsel is emerging as a fine player as well. Marouane Fellaini is still just 23 years old and Jelle Vossen is starting to come into his own at Genk. In short, Belgium have an incredible array of young talent that will really test the U.S. defense.
It's not just the back line that will need to play well if the U.S. is to keep Belgium under wraps. Jose Francisco Torres was good on the ball against Costa Rica, but he remains a defensive liability. He'll need to put in a tacle or two if he gets the nod against Belgium. Maurice Edu cannot afford to give the balla way as often as he has done recently or Belgium will make them pay. After a good match against Mexico last month, Kyle Beckerman may get a look on Tuesday, giving the U.S. some much needed bite in the midfield.
Going forward, the U.S. will get a boost from Clint Dempsey, who is rejoining the team after skipping the match against Costa Rica. Brek Shea will get another chance to continue his fine run of form, but he may be running out of gas. He's played a ton recently for FC Dallas and he was clearly tiring in the second half against Costa Rica. He really should be home resting, but Klinsmann wants another look at him. On the downside, Landon Donovan won't be in the team so the Yanks will have to make do without their star midfielder.
Once again, the U.S. will continue their search for a striker. Vincent Kompany will be standing in the center of the Belgium defense so Jozy Altidore and Juan Agudelo will have a rough time trying to get going. If either can get going and have a good match, it will be quite the accomplishment and maybe the breakthrough match that the U.S. needs from one of their strikers. The odds of that happening are slim though as the U.S. continues to play with a hole up top.
The United States and Belgium face off at 2:30 pm ET, 8:30 pm local time. The game can be seen on ESPN3.com in the USA.

Comments On Apr 17, 2014:Very well made kit. Nice packaging. The air compressor is small and compact but powerful enough to fill the tires on my KLX250s. The only negative so far is the air guage that came with the kit. Throw it in the trash and go to the autoparts store and get a high quality guage to carry with you. Why put air in your tires if you don't have something that tells you how much air you put in.

Hi friends, welcome again to The Week In Worst. Used to be that maybe the hardest part of this was figuring out a way to kick it off. Trying to find a good introductory paragraph or two before moving on to the .gifs. Then one night while I was doing the dishes, I realized that none of you are reading this for the introductory paragraph. You're here for the .gifs, and odds are you've already scrolled down to the .gifs and aren't reading a word of what I'm writing right now. I can probably get away with putting whatever I want in this section, so here's a selection of dialogue from Aces: Iron Eagle III:
Tee Vee: /sees the bell has killed Escovez
Tee Vee: Nice hat.
For those who might be new or who might have forgotten, this is a series dedicated to bad pitches, swings, and defensive plays. The bad pitches and swings are identified mathematically. The bad defensive plays are identified subjectively. Because I don't watch every pitch of every game, I can never be sure if I've identified the worst defensive play of the week, but I always give it a good shot. Please feel free to leave similar or worse defensive plays in the comments below.
To the .gifs. The baseball considered: Sunday, May 13 through Saturday, May 19. By the way, next week The Week In Worst will be on a one-week vacation because I'll be on a one-week vacation. We'll be back the Monday after that, covering the previous two weeks. We will let no worst go unrecognized.
Worst Pitch (Location)
Kyle Drabek
May 16
61.4 inches from center of zone
Watching the .gif, it's interesting that every single person does something after the pitch is thrown. Catcher J.P. Arencibia pops his glove and reaches for his mask. Batter Curtis Granderson does a little move and then retrieves the baseball. The umpire confidently reaches for a new baseball out of his pocket and prepares to throw it to the mound. Pitcher Kyle Drabek adjusts himself to make it appear as if maybe he was bothered by his uniform. There's a really terrible pitch, and then there's activity, because everybody's so embarrassed about it they don't want to call attention to it. They all could've stood there, just looking at the baseball and hammering home that Drabek really f***ed up. But this is about downplaying the terribleness of the pitch and getting to the next one.
Perhaps you'd like to see that in slower motion:
I used to know cricket. In cricket, as a bowler (pitcher), you're supposed to try to knock a thing off of a thing. If you throw the ball directly at the thing, on the fly, the batsman will almost certainly put it in play. So the trick is to bounce the ball and try to confuse the batsman with spin and an unpredictable hop. Here it's like Drabek was trying to knock off Arencibia's mask, but he knew he couldn't throw the ball directly at Arencibia's mask because then Arencibia would block it. So Drabek bounced the ball and wound up with a direct hit. I don't know why Kyle Drabek would be trying to knock off his own catcher's mask but I don't really know how else to explain Kyle Drabek's extraordinarily low rate of strikes.
Here's a telling screenshot:
I did not modify this. This is a screenshot of Kyle Drabek throwing a pitch to Curtis Granderson. Nowhere in this screenshot is the baseball. That is how bad of a pitch this was.
Granderson: And now it's all the way over there!
Arecibia: Haha!
Worst Pitch (Result)
Jake Peavy
Miguel Cabrera
May 15
447-foot homer
I mean, come on, Jake Peavy, you're facing Miguel Cabrera. Even in a blowout game, you're kidding yourself if you think you can sneak that kind of crap by Miguel Cabrera. He's one of the very best hitters in the world. I know, technically even Brent Morel is one of the very best hitters in the world, but Miguel Cabrera is one of the very very best. One of the best, I don't know, five? Ten? Three? You can't get away with a pitch like-
Welp, all right, but you did miss your locati-
Huh. Jake Peavy, you are included in this week's The Week In Worst. I don't really know why. I mean, I know why, but I don't know how you got here. Miguel Cabrera is so good he has broken The Week In Worst. More like The Week In Best! Yeah! Okay moving on.
Worst Swing
Jordany Valdespin
May 15
42.7 inches from center of zone
Announcer 1: Interestingly, Valdespin was not his last name at birth.
Announcer 2: Oh yeah?
Announcer 1: Yeah, he changed it to Valdespin after becoming a baseball player.
Announcer 2: Is that so?
Announcer 1: He thought it would be more fitting.
Announcer 2: Why Valdespin, of all things?
Announcer 1: Just watch him take a hack and you'll see.
Announcer 2: /watches
Announcer 1: /watches
Valdespin: /swings at Axford pitch
Announcer 2:
Announcer 1:
Announcer 2: Okay, but I don't get the "Valde-" part.
Announcer 1: That's because I was messing with you.
Announcer 2: What
Announcer 1: That spin was a coincidence.
Announcer 1: Why would he change his last name?
Announcer 1: You are the dumbest.
Announcer 2: You are the meanest!
Interestingly, the worst swing last time was by Starlin Castro, against John Axford. So that's two weeks in a row John Axford has induced the worst swing in baseball. One of those worst swings did not allow a run to score. Congratulations, John Axford.
Worst Defensive Play
Aramis Ramirez
May 14
Whenever a baseball fan sees that a runner is caught in a pickle, the fan automatically assumes that the runner will be out. And, most of the time, the runner will be out. But what the average baseball fan doesn't appreciate is that a proper pickle is complicated, defensively. You have to be able to throw the ball accurately on the move. You have to be able to run quickly. You have to know when to bluff and when to throw to the defender ahead of the runner. You have to know when to chase a runner to the lead base, and when to chase the runner to the previous base. You have to know how to cycle so that defenders are always in position. And you have to be able to not just drop the baseball like a big stupid idiot.

KENNEWICK, WA – What better day to give funds to a military group than on Veterans Day?
The funds actually came from Halloween. The Project 13 haunted house that was sponsored by Ashley furniture collected funds over the month of October that would go toward Camp Patriot.
Many of the Project 13 volunteers were there to hand over the big check today totaling more than $38,000. This is one of the largest donations Camp Patriot has received from one project. The non-profit gives soldiers and veterans support through community bonding and therapy.
"When you take somebody who's blind and give them an opportunity to climb Mount Rainier that really gives them back their man or womanhood. It's tough to overcome some of these things," explained Micah Clark from Camp Patriot.
The money will all go toward helping those soldiers. Currently the group is working to purchase a ranch where soldiers can go to be at peace and to work through their stress.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Oct. 3, 2005
Vital streetscape improvements getting greenlight
Many of the city's busiest intersections will start getting safer when more than 20 streetlight improvement projects begin in October.
"These improvements will help ensure that Kansas City's streets provide safe, efficient travel for all of its citizens – whether pedestrians or drivers," said City Manager Wayne A. Cauthen. "CIMO has worked to bring this project from the drawing board to construction in record time, and we are looking forward to getting started." ("CIMO" is the acronym for the City of Kansas City, Missouri's, Capital Improvements Management Office. This office is part of the City Manager's Office.)
The project work includes adding left-turn signals, placing mast-arm signals where there are currently pedestal-mounted signals, replacing outmoded power supplies, installing new LED pedestrian signal heads, and repairing existing wheelchair ramps.
"Being older installations, the existing signals in this set of projects do not meet the federal Department of Highway Administration's standards," said Server Sheriff, a CIMO project manager. "The improvements we'll start in October will provide better visibility, reduce accidents and improve traffic flow."
Sheriff and other CIMO staff members managed the design process, and will coordinate construction and inspection through the program's completion. The design process took advantage of CIMO's streamlined design criteria, allowing construction to take place within months. Crews will complete the first phase of the project this winter, with additional street improvements scheduled for later in 2006.

Add action to your still photos
Motion Photo
With Motion Photo, you can freeze time around a moving subject to create enchanting images. Capture a friend dancing while everyone else around him is still as a statue — just like in a Hollywood blockbuster. Simply shoot the footage then select the area where you want action — the photo around it will freeze. It's that easy.
Closer, wider, brighter
5X Zoom / F2.5 25mm Lens / 16.1 Mega Pixels
When you're taking pictures at a performance, make every seat the best seat in the house. The 5x optical zoom gives you great close-ups, even from the back row. Up front? The 25mm wide-angle lens captures all the action on stage. And the combination of 16.1 megapixels and F2.5 lens give you high quality images — even in dim lights.
Classic design with modern touch
With the modern design of the dual LCD screens, the front LCD is neatly hidden leaving much room for style. The front catches your subject's eye with its shimmering metallic colour, while the point colour leather grip pattern of the back provides a pleasing contrast. With its sleek, seamless body and rounded design, the camera feels as good in your hand as it feels great to have handy.
The simple way to go pro
Smart Auto 2.0
Whether you're capturing under bright conditions and cannot see the subject's face, use the backlight mode and get a clearer picture using Smart Auto 2.0 (Still & Movie). Get the best possible result every time.

Videos and photos, together at last

Picture in Picture (Still / Movie) lets you show off two images at the same time. Simply insert one picture within another, and then adjust its size and position. You can even add a video clip to one of your still photos. Done? Instantly upload the moments to YouTube or your favourite social network to share with the rest of the world.
Funny Face brings you larger-than-life smiles
Funny Face
Give friends and family members goofy grins, comical noses and crazy eyes –Funny Face comes with 8 modes — including Professor, Gobbler and Alien — that let you hilariously alter faces, right on the display. And with Face Tracking, funny faces stay the way you want, even when you move the camera.

Magic Frame

Turn life into an art
Artistic Brush
Artistic Brush is a fun, new feature that draws on your life. Literally. It can take any portrait, landscape or candid and turn it into a black and white sketch — then colours in the picture as an artist would! Show off The Artist at Work animation on the camera's LCD to your friends and family.
Combine images for unique creations
Split Shot
With Split Shot, you can merge up to three different images to create an artistic statement – turn yourself into a centaur by combining a self-portrait with a picture of a horse. Or simply take one image and run it through three different filters to produce an evocative collage. Let your imagination loose and enjoy fun, energetic, even ethereal results.
OIS (Optical Image Stabilisation)
The DV300F's Optical Image Stabilisation (OIS) gives you perfect pictures, even if you're not perfectly still. Whether you're in a low light situation, zooming into a shot, or have a momentary case of shaky hands, your photos come out sharp and clear.
3.0" hVGA LCD
The large 3.0" hVGA LCD display makes it easier to see just what you're shooting— no second-guessing your shot. And with a substantial 460k dots — about twice that of QVGA, the high-resolution display also provides improved contrast and colour reproduction. What you see looks as perfect as what you'll capture.

LONDONDERRY — Sixty-two Londonderry student athletes showed concussion-like symptoms last year.
Last week, superintendent Nate Greenberg gave an accounting of injuries to the School Board, which has reviewed the district's policy during the last two months.
Greenberg said the most instances occurred when students were playing football, with 22, with soccer numbering 11 and lacrosse eight.
But in one case even a member of the swim team was hurt.
"Forgot to put the hand out when coming close to the wall," Greenberg told the board.
The head injuries occurred across the board in virtually every sport, involving both boys and girls, and included cheerleading.
The board asked whether any of the students suffered more than one concussion.
"There was only one student who was a repeat," Greenberg said.
There has been growing concern in the sports world about the long-term effects of concussions on athletes.
Even the National Football League has come under fire in recent years for failing to act quickly to protect player health.
Board members looked to the superintendent for assurances the district is doing enough.
"We don't let them back unless we get medical clearance," Greenberg said.
The superintendent told the board that Londonderry schools are extremely conservative in their approach to possible concussions.
"We do not want to take any chances," he said.
The board wondered what would happen in the event of multiple instances involving the same student in the same season.
"In a given season, a youngster could have one concussion, depending on the duration and severity of it, that could be it for the season," Greenberg said.
The superintendent emphasized that Londonderry schools have been leaders in the state in protecting students against concussion.
Students and their families will have to take an online course concerning concussions even before trying out for winter sports this year, he said.

ReCharge Health
Harvard Medical School, 2012 - $16,000
Chronic kidney disease (CKD), or kidney failure, is an increasingly common medical condition characterized by gradually progressing kidney damage and reduced kidney function. CKD is characterized by five stages, with stage I being the earliest and least impactful on patient quality of life, and stage V representing end stage renal disease, which necessitates the initiation of dialysis or kidney transplantation in order to prevent death. As patients progress through the stages of CKD over a period of months to years, they face increasingly complex and stressful self-care tasks, along with challenging care decisions that demand a high level of disease understanding.
This E-Team is developing ReCharge, a web/mobile platform that will provide educational and motivational support to patients at early- to mid-stage kidney failure. ReCharge will profile the educational progress, care beliefs and capacity for self-care for each individual patient. The evolving profiles will then be used to create and update personalized education and counseling programs that support transitions into late stage disease and highlight opportunities to address gaps in self-care to providers. The ultimate goal of ReCharge is to manage the transition to dialysis in order to minimize loss of patient autonomy and dependence on costly in-center care--each patient that successfully adopts home-dialysis will save dialysis providers approximately $13,000 per year.
