Books | Born in 'invisible town,' Marta gains life in visible ink
Perhaps the only footballer's biography to contain poetry by Pablo Neruda ("La reina," or "The Queen," from The Captain's Verses), alongside a picture that Graciano composed of Marta, wearing a crown, and her mother, Dona Tereza. "A playful act clothed in truth," writes Iraci Nogueira, in the preface, of the photograph.
Diego Graciano makes clear in the title of his biography the struggle of Marta Vieira da Silva against cultural norms. Você é mulher, Marta! (You Are a Woman, Marta!)—the book that Graciano has self-published, following single-minded pursuit of the story of the world's greatest woman footballer—alludes to Marta's mother's reply when, as a girl, Marta asked her for a real ball.
"I said, 'You are a woman, Marta!' " recalls Dona Tereza Vieira de Sá, with the intervening "but" strongly implied.
So Marta had to override initial objections to even the most basic requests, this request made of her strongest supporter. "Marta would abandon everything for her dream of playing soccer," Graciano writes in a prologue (see translation), "the person most beloved, her mother, and the tradition most odious, the phantom of submission, which still makes many women feel like prisoners."
Marta grappled with this beast of gender expectation throughout her early life—the name "Marta," a cognate of the biblical Martha (Luke 10:38–42; John 11–12), suggests a woman concerned with household affairs. Dona Tereza described her own position in the early days: "I insisted that [Marta] not dream anymore about being a soccer player, because that was never going to happen. In addition to this, she would probably get seriously injured."
To which Marta would reply: "If I die of injuries from playing soccer, I want you to place a soccer ball inside my coffin, so that I will die satisfied."
Her mother has in the main provided strength for Marta's countercultural ambition, single-handedly supporting the family in what Graciano calls the "invisible town" of Dois Riachos. Marta's father left the family 14 months after she was born inside a brick, tin-roofed lean-to at 284 Júlio Firmino, decorated in a 2004 photograph with voting instructions for upcoming elections.
The village name, meaning "Two Little Rivers," seems like an ironic jibe. Children play football in the scrubland streambeds—more like aspiring rivulets—in Brazil's Nordeste. The town of 13,000 does not appear on maps.
The process of putting Marta's life in book form has been agonizing (see our own skeleton biography, 28 Dec 06, as well as an earlier interview with Graciano, 12 Sept 07). Originally from Argentina, Graciano conceived of the biography soon after moving to São Paulo. He visited Marta and Marta's family in Dois Riachos in Dec 04, when Marta was 18; many of the book's pictures come from this period.

Two Jewish families living in four rooms in Hebron's Beit Ezra building might be
forced to leave, according to documents the state is expected to turn into the
High Court of Justice on Monday.
The state, however, is also expected to
clarify that Hebron's Jewish community can use the property for public purposes,
according to an Israeli official and Public Diplomacy and Diaspora Affairs
Minister Yuli Edelstein.
The Ministerial Committee on Settlement Affairs
was initially scheduled to discuss the matter on Sunday, in advance of the
state's submission to the court. However, the meeting was canceled.
the past, committee members have endorsed an earlier decision by a military
appeals court to allow the families to rent the rooms from the Custodian of
Abandoned Properties.
A Hebron Jewish family initially owned the
building, which abuts the Avraham Avinu apartment complex, but was forced to
leave it in 1947.
The structure then passed into the hands of the state
custodian of abandoned properties, first under Jordan and then under
Until 2001, two Palestinians rented the four rooms from the
custodian and used them as market stalls. At that time, the IDF forced the
Palestinians to abandon the shops for security reasons.
In 2010, Peace
Now petitioned the High Court of Justice on behalf of the Palestinian
According to Edelstein, the state will now ask the families
to leave, but will maintain the idea that the property should remain in Jewish
Hebron Jewish community spokeswoman Orit Struck said she feared
that the state simply planned to evacuate the two families.
She recalled
that in 2006, the state similarly struck a deal with the settlers living in the
evacuated market stalls.
Those stalls also abutted the Avraham Avinu
The families left the stalls after the state promised that the
community could use them for communal purposes.
It then reneged on its
word, Struck said, so there is no reason to trust that it would honor its pledge

A new museum in Dubuque is hoping to capitalize on the city's tourism draw to bring art lovers to the Tri-States. Dubuque Experimental opened this weekend in downtown Dubuque. The museum is centered on experimental art, including contemporary art. Christian Narkiewicz is Director for Dubuque Experimental. He says he hopes the museum inspires others to expand their creativity and bring more contemporary art to the area.
"It's something different and new, and fresh. It's experimental using different materials and new materials, things that are not traditionally associated with art." said Narkiewicz.
Dubuque Experimental was opened by the Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and the European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studios. For artist, Ioannis Karalais the museum has inspired him to expand his boundaries as an artist. An expansion that he says is sometimes hard to do.
"Sometimes as artists we have to compromise because we have to make a living. We have to do some works that people like and they buy and things like that. Here, we would like for people to buy for the artists but we want to push the art too." said Karalais.
"I'm looking at this my way. I make them totally different, softer, even more sexy than they used to be." said Karalais.
Karalais has worked featured in Dubuque Experimental. He enjoys creating work inspired by the relationship between Greek gods and town's people.
"I'm very fond of the Greek mythology because how do I say it, for me, it was a free religion." said Karalais.
Experimental owners, hope to inspire others to do the same. The creative museum space allows artists to create work to bring in the museum as well as create work in the museums space.
"This space gives the artist an opportunity to come in and express themselves" said Narkiewicz.
The space is also home to other experimental productions.
"This space will be dedicated to experimental ideas. Not just visual arts, but also theater, poetry, literature, dance, music, just for cutting edge." said Narkiewicz.
Dubuque experimental does not have set hours of operations. Instead, the museum will host special events to premier new artist exhibits. Admissions to Dubuque Experimental is free.

From the largest state agency to the smallest Massachusetts community, every
dollar matters. In a time when significant reductions in revenues have resulted
in corresponding reductions in personnel and staffing levels, coupled with the
increasing use of technology in government's day-to-day operations, there may be
more opportunities for fraud, waste and abuse than ever before. This book will
discuss the state's Fraud, Waste and Abuse Initiative, including an introduction
to the newly-created state Office of Commonwealth Performance, Accountability
and Transparency, and review of the state's new Toolkit for Departments to
Combat Fraud, Waste and Abuse. The program will also cover the state auditor's
role in fraud, waste and abuse issues, both on the state and local levels,
including legislative initiatives proposed by the auditor to combat fraud, waste
and abuse.

I laugh that men forget themselves so far.

Shane Carwin - He says he's finally 100%. And I believe him. But is it too late? Has time passed him by? Afterall, he's 37. And first in line is Roy Nelson. Does a win for Carwin make a statement? I have him winning this fight, and I have him winning by knockout. Roy's never been knocked out in the UFC, even against Junior Dos Santos, but he has been knocked out in his career, against Arlovski back in 08. And Shane has the power to do it. What do you all think? Is he just a gatekeeper now? Or does he have it in him to make one last run?
Forrest Griffin - What if Forrest comes back determined? What if he takes things seriously again? Can he make a run? Call me crazy, but I think he can beat Chael in December. In fact, I'm picking him to do so. I think he's too big for Chael. Chael is 6'1 with a 74 inch reach. Not to mention, he's a middleweight. Forrest, on the other hand, is a big light heavyweight. He's 6'3 with a 77 inch reach. On paper it may not seem like much, but there will be a noticable size difference. Toss in the fact that Chael Sonnen has fought two times in his MMA career at 205, and he lost both fights, one of them against Mr. Griffin himself.
Rich Franklin - He said he's making one last run. How far will he get? He's coming off a catchweight win over Wanderlei Silva and has Cung Le next in his official return to the currently crowded middlewieght division.
Urijah Faber - As thin as the 135 division may be, I feel he blew his best chance. And I no longer feel he is number 2 in the division. I have him now at 4, right behind Dominick Cruz, Renan Barao, and Michael McDonald. But even though he just lost a one sided fight to Barao, and even though he's lost 2 of his last 3 fights, I still can't rule him out. I mean, its Faber, right? Yes, he's now lost more title fights at this level than anyone else, but its Faber. He's not old or anything, he's only 33, still plenty of time to make at least a couple more runs. Or is there a reason he's losing these fights now? Is he still Urijah Christopher Faber, or is he no longer the same fighter? Has Faber, the guy who at one point carried the WEC, been passed by? Because yeah, he isn't too old at 33, but the guys I listed before him are still on the way up. Cruz turns 27 in two days. Barao is just 25. And Michael McDonald, believe it or not, is only just 21. Can Faber still hang with the young guns? < a
href="http://www.sbnation.com/mma/fighter/122540/b-j-penn" class="sbn-auto-link">
B.J. Penn – With all due respect to Penn, and I know you can't overlook anyone in this sport, but I don't see him beating Rory MacDonald at FOX 5. So where does Penn go if my prediction comes true? Why not back to 155? Why not back to the division where he had his most success? Like Faber, he's 33. Not a young pup anymore, but not exactly an old timer either. If he returns to what was once "his" division, what can do he? Its so crowded there, with so many contenders already in line. Nate Diaz, Anthony Pettis, Donald Cerrone, Gray Maynard, all these guys wanting Ben Henderson's title. Where would Penn fit in?
James Toney – Only kidding…

The Texas Rangers jumped out to an amazing start, clinching the AL West by April 25, and ... well, they actually had a .500 record in the month of May, and they've lost five of their last six. But the early returns for the 2012 MLB All-Star voting still have them as the class of the league.

Dalton Police arrested a man on multiple charges of sexual assault and kidnapping.
Police say they arrested 20-year-old Javier Valdez Rodriguez on two counts of battery, sexual battery, indecent exposure, and criminal attempted kidnapping.
Police say Rodriguez was involved in three separate incidents in June and August.
Police say on June 14, a woman reported she was on Walnut Avenue when a man pulled up in a dark Honda around 9:30 p.m. The suspect yelled at her to stop, got out and tried to grab her. The victim screamed for help and hit the suspect who then fled.
On June 17, police say a woman was walking through a parking lot at the Underwood Lodge apartments on Underwood Street around 10 p.m. She says a dark colored Honda drove past. She came out of a store later and noticed the same car parked in the parking lot of the La Providencia store. The suspect asked her if she had a cigarette. When she answered, she noticed his penis was out. She turned to run and says he chased after her and tried to grab her. She screamed and he got back in his car and fled.
On August 23, a woman was walking in the area of Beechland Street around 10 p.m. She says the suspect drove up and asked her if she needed a ride. When she said no, he insisted and got out of the car and tried to force her inside. She managed to get away, but her shirt was torn.
One of the victims was able to get the tag number and report it to investigators. Thursday, detectives tracked down Rodriguez. He was interviewed and placed under arrest.
Investigators are asking anyone else who may have experienced a similar attack to please contact Detective Tommy Ensley at 706-278-9085, extension 157.

Sample Report
The year 2005 was the hottest on the planet in recorded history; there is open water for the first time ever at the North Pole; the snows at the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro will probably disappear within 25 years. A power grid the size of Houston is being added to China every month; the United States, with only four percent of the world's population, emits more than 20 percent of the world's carbon. "Fifty years from now," a noted scientist speculates, "you may be living in a world where you don't go outside between one and four in the afternoon." In short, our increasingly brutish country, with its end-time mentality and barbarian attitude toward the environment, would gladly trade the last frog for cheaper gas prices.

Panthers OLB Jason Williams has a torn ACL and will be placed on injured reserve, according to the Gaston (N.C.) Gazette.
Williams joins Thomas Davis, Jamar Williams and Dan Connor as Panthers linebackers to suffer season-ending injuries. Williams started in Weeks 12 and 13 before sustaining the injury in the Week 13 loss to the Seahawks. He continued to play in that game but was inactive in Week 14 when he was replaced by Jordan Senn in the starting lineup.
Williams is in his second season. He began 2010 with the Cowboys before joining the Panthers. He ha 16 tackles, two passes defensed and a forced fumble this season.
PFW correspondent Darin Gantt is reporting that Panthers DE Everette Brown needs season-ending wrist surgery. Brown played in all 13 games with two starts and recorded 1½ sacks in Sunday's loss, giving him 3½ sacks for the season.
The way we see it
Losing another linebacker adds to a forgettable season for the Panthers. Senn has played in 11 games this season with one start and will likely start for Williams the rest of the way.

The Herald Bulletin
---- — For the past several months, The Herald Bulletin newsroom has been hard at work on a coffee-table book, "The Madison County Auto Industry: A History of Innovation."
We're headed into the homestretch now on the project. The dust jacket has been sent to press, and the 128 pages of the book are due at the printer in early October.
The printing and proof processing will take a few weeks, then we'll have the book in hand and ready for distribution by mid-November. Look for offers soon in The Herald Bulletin and at theheraldbulletin.com to order copies of the book. We'll be printing only a limited number, so the only way to assure that you get copies is to reserve yours early.
I've served as the coordinator of our last three coffee-table book projects. In 2011, we published "The Wigwam," a retrospective on Anderson's beloved 9,000-seat high school basketball gym. Last year, we created "Madison County's 100 Greatest Athletes." This year, it's the auto industry book.
Each book has been a learning opportunity for us; our day-to-day job is reporting news on our website and in our print edition. Creating a book is a much different process, with its own rhythm and considerations. For me, the auto industry project has been the most challenging of the three recent books.
As an Anderson College student from 1983-87, I covered local sports for The Herald Bulletin. Then, from 1989-96, I worked full time in the THB sports department. Between 1997 and 2007, I worked for The Star Press in Muncie, before coming back to Anderson as the editor.
So, I was buried deep in sports during my previous stint here. By the time I returned, the local auto industry had all but disappeared. Before this project, I truly knew little about the local Delco Remy and Guide plants.
Through the process of gathering materials and working with writers and photographers, I've learned a great deal about the local plants, their culture and their profound impact on the community.
Folks at the Madison County Historical Society, Anderson Public Library and other organizations have been wonderful in helping us find materials and information for the book. Without them, the task would have been much more difficult, seemingly impossible.
It's exciting to see the pages of the book coming together now. It's going to be a very good product, one that will stir fond memories for thousands of folks living in Madison County.
Many people, even if they worked in the local plants, will learn something from the book, perhaps about the very early period of the auto industry, when Anderson was a breeding ground for new ideas and new models of horseless carriages.
Editor Scott Underwood's column appears Mondays. Like him on Facebook and follow him on Twitter @THBeditor. Contact him at email@example.com or 640-4845.

Students from the EVSC's Career and Technical Center are learning while helping Delaware Elementary students.
The students have been constructing pergolas in the courtyard of the school.
They started in September and are in the final stages on construction.
For the older students, it's been a learning experience and a way to give back.
"We get to learn, of course, teamwork and sharing, working with each other, cutting angles, screwing stuff in," says Jason Chambliss. "All kinds of stuff"
The pergolas will provide a shady area for students to sit and read as well as do homework.
Construction is due to wrap up just in time for the warmer weather.

Town Square
Holiday Fund: Library Foundation pushes to furnish city's libraries
Original post made on Dec 1, 2012
Read the full story here Web Link posted Saturday, December 1, 2012, 10:38 AM
on Dec 1, 2012 at 11:36 am
This is great. I voted for the bond, and can't wait to see the finished construction. However - Mayor - are you pleased enough with the gift from the citizens to make the fee structure more like the Los Altos library's? We go to Los Altos because of the fee structure and how it allows us to work our library visits better into our lives. We haven't used our local libraries, that we pay for, in TEN YEARS because the lending policies make them unusable and punitive.
Reserve a book and can't pock it up in time? A dollar fine. Borrow a children's video and someone else reserves it? You have to bring it back in one week of checking it out or be fined. Los Altos gives three weeks and a six week grace period, plus the fines go to the LIBRARY, not the general fund as they do in Palo Alto. Palo Alto is using the fines for revenue, which gives them an incentive to keep an unfriendly fine structure. The fines should be to encourage returning the books, not to raise money for the city.
Do you know why Palo Alto sends you an email BEFORE your items are due, instead of two weeks after? Because I argued vociferously for it back when, I think it was Paula Simpson was stil here. I still have emails where I was told it wasn't possible to do that!! (oh brother, right?)
The reason I was given for Palo Alto's punitive fee structure relative to Los Altos' is that Palo Alto doesn't have the resources of he county system. Well if the county system is such a great advantage (and I agree), why aren't we joining? Now that the itizens have been so active and generous, can you please do two things to make our libraries more usable?
1) change fines and lending policies to match those of the Los Altos library, which are just frankly easier on families, and
2) change the recipient of fines from the general fund to the library system - it feels a lot better paying unavoidable fines if I know it will benefit the library.
Lastly - something is wrong in the computer system, too. I would pay for my fines, not use the library, and the next time I'd go back, there would be fines on my record. Like I said, I finally gave up using our lical PA libraries.
on Dec 1, 2012 at 12:01 pm
This building, when it finally is finished construction, will be of little value to the community at large. The digital world has clearly established itself during the last ten years--no matter how hard the people pushing for this library tried to deny that fact, vilifying every one in their way.
We're seeing a mini-revolution going on within the PC industry--an unexpected endorsement of tablets--so much so that they may very well put an premature end to the desktop PC business--
Gartner Says Worldwide Media Tablets Sales to Reach 119 Million Units in 2012:

Web Link
The tablets can hold hundreds/thousands of e-books, movies, audios, etc. There really is no reason to ever go to a public library again--to pick up/drop off reading material.
And .. in the coming years we will be seeing new kinds of "libraries" evolve--which link together the extant holdings, in one form or another, from all over the US, and eventually--the world:
Walk into any privately-owned coffee shop, and look around. Virtually everyone in their has a laptop, a tablet, or is reading on a cell phone. There are few people actually reading books any more.
National Digital Public Library
Web Link
People donating to this now unneeded facility would be better off asking that their money be used to build a city-wide "Mesh Network", so that wireless Internet access would be available to all. The money being raised (per this article) would completely build such a wireless network, providing funds to operate it for years to come, in addition.
Sadly, much of this money will sit idle, when the library is closed (about 65% of the year).
on Dec 1, 2012 at 1:07 pm
I --- and a huge number of others --- read books both on my Kindle and on paper. I watch movies at a theater, and streamed on my TV/computer. I watch plays or operas on a screen and go to live performances.
Each environment has different attributes to offer, but they are not adequate substitutes for each other.
I still want books, lots of them, and can't imagine not having them.

If they were ever to hold a Twitter "Twit of the Year" contest, I know who'd get my vote: Pennsylvania Attorney General (and Republican candidate for governor) Tom Corbett.
Not that I give a rodent's behind about politics in the Keystone State (though the Webcam shenanigans at those Lower Merion schools give me pause), but Corbett has proven himself more than worthy of the title, given his recent actions surrounding Twitter.

Two weeks ago, a grand jury Corbett is using to investigate political corruption in PA issued a subpoena to Twitter, demanding the "name, address, contact information, creation date, creation Internet protocol address, and any and all log-in Internet addresses" of two anonymous tweeters who've issued a steady stream of tweets criticizing the attorney general and his investigation.
This is stupid on so many levels I don't know where to begin.
First, let's talk about the Streisand effect, which can be summarized as "the quickest way to spread information across the Net is by attempting to squash it." The tweeps whose identities have been sought -- @BFbarbie and @CasablancaPA -- just had their follower counts boosted by about 1,000 percent. Barbie went from around 60 followers on Wednesday to nearly 600 as I write this; Casablanca's following grew from 120 to nearly 800 -- not Ashton Kutcher-style numbers, but still.
Even better, the CasablancaPA blog where many of these tweets were directed saw its readership grow sevenfold, according to one of its posts. I'm sure it's even bigger now.

HRTV will present a special one-hour live show Saturday featuring the 2010 debuts of 2009 Horse of the Year Rachel Alexandra and unbeaten Breeders' Cup Classic winner Zenyatta. Entitled "The Champions Return," the show will be hosted by Scott Hazelton and Gary Stevens, who will be live at the Fair Grounds for Rachel Alexandra's race, the $200,000 New Orleans Ladies' Stakes at 1 1/16 miles. It will go as the 10th race at approximately 3:15 p.m. The Santa Margarita will be Santa Anita's seventh race with a probable post time of 3:40 p.m.
Team Zenyatta plans to use the Santa Margarita as a steppingstone to the "Race of the Ages" against Rachel Alexandra in the $5 million Apple Blossom Handicap at Oaklawn Park on Friday, April 9.
"She worked very well Friday morning," trainer John Shirreffs said of her six furlong move in 1:11.80, breezing at Hollywood Park. "I had her in 1:11 and three or four. She looks like she's on top of her game right now. She walked yesterday morning for an hour and a half and she walked yesterday afternoon for another hour. We took her to the main track this morning and she jogged a mile (the wrong way)."
Shirreffs said that Zenyatta would "probably van over (to Santa Anita) Thursday afternoon." He also said that he was anxious to find out what Zenyatta's weight assignment would be for the Santa Margarita. Weights were due out Sunday afternoon.
"She worked unbelievable the other day," said her regular rider, Mike Smith. "I know it sounds funny, but I really think she's getting better. She seems more and more focused and she couldn't be doing any better."
Bob Baffert left the door slightly ajar for 2009 male 2-year-old champion Lookin At Lucky to make his 3-year-old debut in next Saturday's Grade II, $150,000 San Felipe Stakes. If not, it would come in the Grade II, $300,000 Rebel Stakes at Oaklawn Park the same day. Both are 1 1/16 miles.
"I'll look at the weather at Oaklawn and if it looks like snow, I'll just keep him here," Baffert said Sunday morning. "But right now, the Rebel looks pretty firm. We have a lot of questions that have to be answered, wearing blinkers for the first time in a race and running on dirt for the first time. The closer you get to the Kentucky Derby (May 1), the better off you are knowing the answers."
Meanwhile, Baffert, wife Jill and boxer Derby were basking in the sunshine at Clockers' Corner after Misremembered's game victory in Saturday's Santa Anita Handicap. Baffert said he is considering the Grade II, $500,000 Oaklawn Handicap April 4 for the son of Candy Ride's next race.
Mike Machowsky, meanwhile, said Sunday that unbeaten Caracortado "is like a wild man" as he awaits the San Felipe. Eoin Harty reports that Eclipse Award-winning jockey Julien Leparoux will ride American Lion in the San Felipe.
Maybe it's the water, maybe it's in the genes, but whatever it is, Louisiana is a breeding ground for great jockeys. One of the most successful is Calvin Borel, 2010 winner of Santa Anita's George Woolf Memorial Jockey Award, who will be on hand next Sunday to receive the prestigious honor.
Among the Cajun Country natives who have won the award are Eddie Delahoussaye (1981), Kent Desormeaux (1993), Craig Perret (1998), Robby Albarado (2004), Ray Sibille (2005) and Mark Guidry (2006).
A two-time Kentucky Derby winner, Borel is the 61st Woolf winner selected by a vote of his peers. The 43-year-old rider from St. Martin Parish, Louisiana, is the regular rider of the superstar filly and 2009 Horse of the Year Rachel Alexandra. Borel stunned the racing world last year by winning the Kentucky Derby in an unforgettable rail-skimming, last-to-first victory aboard 50-1 shot Mine That Bird.
"I think so many good riders come out of Louisiana because of the area where we were raised," offered 58-year-old retired Hall of Fame jockey Delahoussaye, who hails from New Iberia, Louisiana. "It's all rural farmers and hard-working people, and they all have race horses."
Eddie D., who retired in 2003, had little if any competition on horseback with Borel, but feels a kinship nevertheless.
"I know Calvin, but I was always out here when he was riding back east," Delahoussaye said. "I don't remember if I ever rode with him." But they might be linked closer than he thinks.
"Eddie's momma and Calvin's, on Eddie's side of the family, are third or fourth cousins," said Delahoussaye's wife, Juanita. Bloodlines aside, Delahoussaye has an eye for talent in the saddle. "By watching him ride, I can see he's a good rider," Delahoussaye said, "and he's a good guy. He deserves the award, that's the bottom line right there."
FINISH LINES: Trainer Alexis Barba said Sunday morning that Saturday's Pasadena Stakes winner Make Music for Me likely would make his next start in the Grade I, $750,000 Santa Anita Derby on April 3, while "no plans have been made" for Sham Stakes winner Alphie's Bet. Barba will be HRTV's guest on Wednesday's "Across The Board" show at 5 p.m. . . . Richard Mandella said Sham runner-up Setsuko came of the race fine and "we'll probably look at the Santa Anita Derby.". . . Trainer Mike Machowsky says he'll regroup with Nextdoorneighbor, impressive maiden winner who faded to seventh after setting the pace in the Sham. "I'm not really sure why he was on the lead," Machowsky said. "I have no plans for him right now." . . . Blind Luck, who finished third, beaten two necks, as the 1-2 favorite in the Santa Anita Oaks, is ticketed for the Grade II, $250,000 Fantasy Stakes at Oaklawn Park on April 5. "Jerry (Hollendorfer) hates to lose," assistant Dan Ward said Sunday morning. "She ran very good and came back good." Ward said there had been "no discussions at all" on whether Hollendorfer would make a rider change from Rafael Bejarano for the Fantasy. "I like Raffy a lot and I know he wants to win just as much as we do." . . . Agent Ron Anderson said two-time Eclipse Award winner Garrett Gomez rides Life Is Sweet for John Shirreffs in the Dubai World Cup on March 27. Brad Pegram has booked Mike Smith on Richard's Kid in the $10 million race. Gomez rides Palos Verdes Handicap winner Kinsale King for trainer Carl O'Callaghan in the $2 million Golden Shaheen and Courageous Cat for Bill Mott in the $5 million Duty Free at 1 1/8 miles on turf. Kinsale King worked five furlongs at Hollywood Park Sunday in 1:01.80, breezing . . . Trainer Jim Kasparoff says San Carlos Handicap winner Bob Black Jack is doing well at his Hollywood Park headquarters as he prepares for the Grade II, $150,000 Potrero Grande Handicap at 6 ½ furlongs on April 3 . . . Trainer Ron Ellis celebrates his 50th birthday on Wednesday . . . One of next Sunday's races will be named the Clockers' Corner Handicap. Popular eatery host Rosie Ybarra will present the trophy. "Is it like the Academy Awards?" Rosie asked. "Do I have to wear a gold dress and walk down a red carpet?" . . . ShowVivor II had seven contestants alive going into Sunday, while WinVivor II, which began Saturday, had 57.

It sounds like something from an old episode of "Lassie." A dog notices the house is on fire and goes to get help. But this really happened Thursday morning in Orange Grove, and get this: The dog's name is "Blaze."
It happened at a home on Parkwood Boulevard in Orange Grove. Investigators said an electrical panel on the back of the house shorted out and caught fire. Blaze saw it and started barking. All that commotion drew the owner outside, who quickly called 911.
Firefighters said the flames went into the attic, but they were able to put it out pretty quickly. Luckily, there wasn't a lot of damage.
Blaze's owner, Bryan Ellis, told WLOX News the dog hero will certainly be rewarded with a Milk Bone and "even wet food instead of dry food."

Whether 80 mm or 65 mm objective lens diameter, straight or angled or with and without high-definition optic: The extensive range of telescopes from Swarovski Optik with its 12 spotting scope models and 3 compatible interchangeable eyepieces offers the optimum selection for every specific requirement.
The non-stick effect of the SWAROCLEAN coating on the outer surface of the lens makes cleaning objective and eyepiece lenses considerably easier, above all when removing dried-on mineral residues (e.g. water marks due to condensation), insect repellents and tree resin. The lenses require less intensive cleaning which significantly increases the longevity of optical products.

Rauner had his own camera-friendly props at an earlier news conference -- chickens in a cage representing what he called thousands of dollars in wasteful spending by Gov. Quinn's Administration to help preserve a declining species of prairie chicken popular with Downstate hunters.
"Pat Quinn and his allies spent $100,000 flying a few prairie chickens into our state. Outrageous," exclaimed Rauner.
While a Quinn spokesman said a federal grant covered 90% of the cost and that a special fee on hunters covered the rest, Rauner stood by his larger point, insisting he could cut at least $1 billion from the state budget.
The Quinn campaign mocked Rauner's proposed reductions as fantasy and chicken feather, calling them "a prank." The Governor's said he's already cut programs about as far as possible. Quinn argues that's why Illinois cannot afford to let its current flat 5% income tax rate fall to 3.75%, as it is scheduled to do on January 1st.
Some Republicans argue that would boost the local economy.
"We absolutely let it roll back. We should let it roll back. The people were promised that the tax would go back down. And we saw the largest spike in unemployment of any state in the country when the Democrats raised taxes the way they did four years ago," said State Senator Matt Murphy.
Rauner told reporters Thursday that he'll sell most of the state's planes. He adds the state could save $60 million by moving lawmakers from pensions into 401(k) plans. He calls the Department of Central Management Services a "patronage cesspool." And he says he would merge the comptroller's and treasurer's offices to save $12 million.
Rauner said he'll be rolling out more of his plans, including a budget, over the next few weeks. He has criticized Quinn for excessive spending, cronyism and trying to raise taxes. Rauner also said he wouldn't take any salary or pension as governor.

Notes: Greer to join Rangers greats
McCarthy to test blister in 'pen session; Eyre brothers reunite
ARLINGTON -- Rusty Greer is ready to take his official place among Rangers immortals.Greer is expected to be in the 2007 class for the Rangers Hall of Fame when the official announcement is made on Thursday before their game with the Chicago Cubs. The actual induction will be on Aug. 11, before the Rangers' game with the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. Greer, one of the most popular players in club history, played for the Rangers from 1994-2002 before a series of injuries brought an end to his career. He didn't officially retire until Spring Training in 2005. A 10th-round pick out of the University of Montevallo (Ala.), Greer was called up to the Rangers in May 1994, and was their Rookie of the Year that season after hitting .314 with 10 home runs and 46 RBIs in 80 games in 277 at-bats. His most memorable moment was a diving catch in the ninth inning to save Kenny Rogers' perfect game. Greer was at his best in 1996-1999, when he played left field on three division championship teams. He hit .300 or better in all four seasons, plus three seasons of over 100 runs scored and three seasons of at least 100 RBIs. Greer would join pitchers Charlie Hough, Nolan Ryan, John Wetteland and Ferguson Jenkins, catcher Jim Sundberg, third baseman Buddy Bell, manager Johnny Oates, broadcaster Mark Holtz and former Arlington mayor Tom Vandergriff. McCarthy to test blister: Brandon McCarthy is scheduled to throw a bullpen session on Thursday and test the blister on his right middle finger. McCarthy has played catch without problem, but throwing off the mound in the bullpen will be a bigger test. "We'll see from there," McCarthy said. "I've played catch and it was fine, but we need to test it out and see if we can get it going." McCarthy is 3-0 with a 3.26 ERA in his last six starts but has made just one start since May 25, because of the blister. He is on the disabled list and is expected to make at least one medical rehab start before he returns to the rotation. "It's really frustrating," manager Ron Washington said. "Everybody wants pitching, and he was one of our better pitchers. But it's like anything else. When one goes down, somebody else has to step up."
Eyre brothers: The Cubs-Rangers series marks the second time that Willie and Scott Eyre, a pitcher for Chicago, have been on opposite sides of a Major League field. It happened last year in Interleague Play when Willie was with the Twins. Both are relievers, but they have never pitched in the same game."It would be fun if I could pitch the top half of an inning and he pitched in the bottom half," Willie Eyre said. "I'd definitely try to get that lineup card. My mom might have a hard time with it." Willie, six years younger, is only in his second year in the Major Leagues. Scott has been pitching in the Majors since 1997, and has had a big impact on his brother's career. "There were some times in the Minor Leagues when I was down," Willie said. "I was pitching bad, away from my family and I'd give him a call. He'd settle me down. He has been a father figure, someone to look up to. He means everything to me." Rogers sighting: The Rangers are expected to face Rogers during their four-game series with the Detroit Tigers next Wednesday at Comerica Park. Rogers has been on the disabled list all season but is expected to be activated Friday night to pitch against the Atlanta Braves. That would put him in line to face the Rangers. The Tigers are also listing Jeremy Bonderman on Tuesday and Justin Verlander on Thursday. Hurley promoted: The Rangers are promoting Double-A pitcher Eric Hurley to Triple-A Oklahoma. Hurley was 7-2 with a 3.25 ERA in 15 games, including 14 starts, for Frisco and is the Rangers' top pitching prospect.
He said it: "As far as wins and losses are concerned, it's unacceptable. I don't want to rebuild, I want to fix it immediately. Winning is my concern. I know it's not going to be easy, but that's what we all signed up to do." -- Shortstop Michael YoungTuesday's Minor Stars:
Gold: Class A Bakersfield third baseman Chris Davis hit a home run for California in a 10-5 victory over Carolina in the California-Carolina All-Star Game.Silver: Double-A Frisco outfielder Steve Murphy extended his hitting streak to 16 games with a single against Midland. He is hitting .456 during the streak. Bronze: Clinton's Jose Vallejo and John Whittleman were both 1-for-2 in the Midwest League All-Star Game. Briefly: The Rangers are pushing Jamey Wright back one day so Kevin Millwood can pitch on his normal four days' rest. Millwood goes Friday against the Astros and Wright goes Saturday. Wright pitched before Millwood in Cincinnati. ... The Rangers have a day game on Thursday after a night game, but Washington said he expects Sammy Sosa to still start at DH. Up next: Right-hander Vicente Padilla pitches against Cubs left-hander Ted Lilly in the finale of a three-game series at 1:05 p.m. CT on Thursday at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington.

Welcome to the German Missions in South Africa, Lesotho and Swaziland
Germany's Foreign Office and the South African Embassy in Berlin have teamed up to present a four-day celebration in the German capitol honouring 20 years of South Africa's democracy. Hosted at the spectacular House of World Cultures, the events include a concert, photo exhibition, film screenings and a symposia entitled "South Africa: Challenges and Promises of Democracy". The series of events runs from August 28–31, 2014.
After the fall of the Wall, people in Germany couldn't wait to get rid of its remains. As a result, the Wall, which divided East and West for over 28 years after its construction began on August 13, 1961, has largely disappeared from Berlin. When the realisation came that commemoration requires a location, it was almost too late. Only a few fragments still remain, such as the East Side Gallery, and these have now been linked into a tangible memorial landscape.
On July 22, the final panel discussion of the "20 Years of Democracy, 25 Years of Freedom – Germany and South Africa – Lessons Learned" series was held at the University of Witwatersrand in Johannesburg. Political activist Dr. Mamphela Ramphele, Prof. Adam Habib and last GDR Foreign Minister and longtime member of the German Bundestag Markus Meckel discussed the parallels in both countries' history.
The heads of Germany's missions abroad meet once a year to discuss current foreign policy issues. The focus of this year's Ambassadors Conference is "A Fresh Look at German Foreign Policy". German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier opened the conference together with the former High Representative for the Common Foreign and Security Policy of the European Union Javier Solana and Swiss President Didier Burkhalter.
13th Ambassadors Conference
SAP SE announced on August 20 a seven-year plan to up-skill local African talent and drive sustainable innovation and growth in Africa. It envisions hub anchors in South Africa, Nigeria, Kenya, Angola and Morocco, and plans to train the next generation of IT leaders and professionals, up to 10,000 consultants, by 2020.
SAP invests up to US $500 Million in Africa
Germany's Ambassador to South Africa, Horst Freitag, joined a lively, interactive discussion forum on August 14 at Stellenbosch University. The event was hosted by the Stellenbosch Political Science Association and addressed the topic "Towards a Better Africa."
Stellenbosch hosts distinguished panel discussion
On August 18, the German Embassy invited German language students as well as German exchange students from the University of Pretoria to an open discussion themed "20 years of democracy in South Africa and 25 years Fall of the Berlin Wall".
Discussion with students
On August 19, The German Embassy in South Africa donated sports equipment worth 1000 Euro to Moretele Primary School in Mamelodi near Pretoria. Representatives of the Embassy and the German School Pretoria (DSP) handed over two football goals, five footballs and an air pump. They agreed with school officials to intensify their cooperation in the future.
Donation for Moretele Primary School
Germany came in first in a new energy efficiency ranking of the world's major economies, followed by Italy, the European Union as a whole, China, and France, according to the 2014 International Energy Efficiency Scorecard published by the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE).
Energy Efficiency Ranking
The fall of the Berlin Wall 25 years ago inspired many South Africans, just as the end of apartheid 20 years ago inspired many Germans. Both events changed the face of the globe for the better. The German government and the German people wholeheartedly congratulate all South Africans on the 20th anniversary of the new South Africa and we invite you to join us in celebrating the 25th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall.
20 Years Democracy in SA/25 Years Fall of the Berlin Wall
The German-South African Binational Commission, chaired by the South African Deputy President and the German Vice Chancellor/Foreign Minister, is held every two years, alternating between Berlin and Pretoria. The two partner countries debate global challenges and coordinate possible collaboration in various fields of mutual interest.

Less than a week to go before the 2011 Breeders' Cup at Churchill Downs, which means it's time for final preparations and decisions as to which races some of the contenders will ultimately enter. Below is a summary of the news and notes for Saturday, Oct. 29th.
- The connections of Winchester, one of the contenders for the Turf, decided that the colt will not run at the Breeders' Cup. Trainer Christophe Clement stated that the colt didn't scope well following his work this morning at Belmont Park, and that neither him nor the owner were comfortable running in the Turf. Winchester was 4th in last year's Turf.
- Cozi Rosie, a contender for the Filly & Mare Turf, has sustained a minor injury and will not travel to Kentucky this week.
- Leading Horse of the Year candidate Havre de Grace will officially by-pass the Ladies' Classic to take on the boys in the Classic. She was cross-entered in both races but was widely expected to run against the colts. Today, trainer Larry Jones confirmed those plans.
- Defending Turf Sprint Champion Chamberlain Bridge worked a half-mile in 50.60 seconds over the Churchill Downs turf course on Saturday morning.
- Aruna, the recent winner of the Spinster Stakes at Keeneland, is cross-entered in both the Ladies' Classic and the Filly & Mare Turf. The filly has never run over a dirt in her career (all of her starts have come over turf or synthetic surfaces), and trainer Graham Motion is leaning towards having her start in the Filly & Mare Turff following this morning's work over the Churchill Downs main track.
- Dullahan, winner of the Breeders' Futurity at Keeneland over the Polytrack, will run in the Juvenile at the Breeders' Cup, not the Juvenile Turf. Dullahan is a half-brother to 2009 Kentucky Derby champion Mine That Bird.
