By LOHR McKINSTRY Press-Republican
---- — ELIZABETHTOWN — Unofficial results from Tuesday's general election in Essex County knocked five incumbents off the Board of Supervisors, including three out of six Democrats.
Voters also removed all four women from the board.
Results could change in Minerva, where incumbent Democratic Supervisor Sue Montgomery Corey is losing by only 8 votes to independent challenger Stephen McNally.
McNally is a registered Democrat who lost the primary to Corey but narrowly won the general eleciton, 192 to 184.
Essex County Republican Election Commissioner Allison McGahay said they have 37 absentee ballots out for Minerva, with 23 received back as of Tuesday.
Absentee ballots will be accepted up to seven days after the election, she said.
Countywide, 600 to 700 absentee ballots will be counted, McGahay said.
The official recanvass, when absentee and other special ballots are counted, is all day Wednesday, Nov. 13. The Minerva count is slated for 9 a.m.
Essex County Democratic Party Chair Bethany Kosmider said the Minerva supervisor race will likely be decided at the recanvass.
"We'll be watching not just the Minerva race closely, but all the races that were close. We had outstanding supervisors that lost, four of whom are women. People chose to vote the way they voted."
Kosmider said there's always another election to work toward.
"We (Democrats) will continue to put up good candidates. It's only two years until the next election for supervisor."
If the Minerva results stand, it will be the first time in 34 years that no woman has served on the Essex County Board of Supervisors, Moriah Supervisor Thomas Scozzafava said Wednesday.
In 1980, Mildred Dobie of North Hudson and Florence Hathaway of Willsboro were the first women members, followed by Joyce Morency of St. Armand in 1981.
"There's been a woman on ever since," Scozzafava said. "It's unreal."
Scozzafava said he's been on the Board of Supervisors for 25 years.
"I've always served with women on that board. They bring a whole new perspective to local government."
Essex County Republican Party Chair Ronald Jackson said he thinks voters are beyond looking at races based on gender.
"Each town looked at their candidates and picked the one they thought was best," he said, "I wouldn't be surprised if Sue Montgomery Corey was back on. It (women losing) was an odd quirk. It is kind of an unusual thing."
He said voters generally vote based on what they see as the issues and who will address them best.
"It's been an interesting year. Every town had its issues."
Defeated in the election, unofficially, were Supervisors Margaret Bartley in Elizabethtown, Sharon Boisen in Essex, Debra Malaney in Ticonderoga, Corey in Minerva and Edward Hatch in Willsboro.
Democrats Bartley, Hatch and Malaney will be replaced by Republicans, Boisen by another independent, and Democrat Corey by an independent, who would probably serve on the board as a Democrat.
New supervisors, if results stand, will be Republicans Noel Merrihew III in Elizabethtown, Shaun Gillilland in Willsboro and William Grinnell in Ticonderoga and independents Edward Gardner in Essex and Stephen McNally in Minerva.
McNally is a registered Democrat who is expected to serve on the board under that party.
Only incumbent Supervisor Daniel Connell in Westport, a Democrat, retained his post.
"It was a pretty good night for Republicans, picking up three seats, two new and Noel going back on," Jackson said Wednesday. "It will change the flavor of the board."
The remaining Democrats are Board of Supervisors Chair Randy Douglas of Jay and Supervisor Gerald Morrow of Chesterfield.
Douglas ran unopposed, and Morrow was not up for re-election this year.
This year's elections were the first for McGahay and Essex County Democratic Election Commissioner Mark Whitney, and it went well, McGahay said.
"We were prepared for anything. We're very happy at the Board of Elections."
Once the polls close, sealed bags containing voting-machine memory cards with the results must be quickly delivered to the Board of Elections.
"We had extra (voting) machines at polls," McGahay said. "The Sheriff's Department and Ticonderoga and Moriah police departments helped to get those bags to us.
"We were thrilled with how it worked. We had results to voters online before 11 p.m."

NOAA has issued an emergency closure on fishing in federal waters affected by the BP Deepwater Horizon incident. This emergency curtailment of all fishing covers federal waters from the mouth of the Mississippi River to waters off Florida's Pensacola Bay, effective immediately (May 2, 2010).
Closure has initially been set for a minimum of 10 days. Details can be found here: http://sero.nmfs.noaa.gov/ This closure comes on the heels of the closing of Louisiana inshore waters east of the Mississippi River, which was announced Friday.
"There are finfish, crabs, oysters and shrimp in the Gulf of Mexico near the area of the oil spill," said Roy Crabtree, NOAA Fisheries Southeast Regional Administrator. "The Gulf is such an important biologic and economic area in terms of seafood production and recreational fishing."
According to NOAA, there are 3.2 million recreational fishermen in the Gulf of Mexico region who took 24 million fishing trips in 2008. NOAA is working with the state governors to evaluate the need to declare a fisheries disaster.
NOAA will continue to evaluate the need for fisheries closures based on the evolving nature of the spill and will re-open the fisheries as appropriate. NOAA will also re-evaluate the closure areas as new information that would change the dimension of these closed areas becomes available.

I'm sure by now you've all seen the result - brave, valiant, plucky, gritty, Eckstein-ish Celtic were less than a minute away from picking up a very unlikely yet very well-deserved point at the Nou Camp yesterday before Barcelona woke up, realized they're Barcelona, and won the game. If I cared at all about Celtic, I'd have been heartbroken - sure, it was just a group stage match and overall Celtic actually still have a good chance of qualifying for the knockouts, so it's not like there was an actual trophy at stake, but still - losing like that is a punch to the gut. Bill Simmons even wrote a column about games like this a while back.
I can think of three games like this in my sport-watching history, two of which involve Arsenal - the 2001 FA Cup final and the 2006 Champions League final - and one of which was less a stomach punch than a slow-motion car crash that you're forced to watch, Clockwork Orange style, on about 100 TV's at a time.
August 5, 2001. The Seattle Mariners were in the midst of a record-breaking season; they would go on to win 116 games, tied for the most in modern baseball history with the 1906 Chicago Cubs. The morning of August 5, the Mariners were 80-30 and well on their way to that record, and they were in Cleveland to play the Indians. They had won the first two games of the series, and were in good shape to win the third - Aaron Sele was on the mound, in the midst of a very good year for him.
The M's cruised out to a 12-0 lead after three innings, and I figured all was good. The Indians scored a couple in the fourth, but at 12-2 I still thought the M's were going to cruise. They restored their 12 run lead in the top of the 5th, and that should have been that.
But noooooooooo.
After a scoreless sixth, the Indians scored three in the seventh, four in the eighth, and five in the ninth to tie the game at 14, and won it in the bottom of the 11th when future former Mariner Jolbert Cabrera singled in Kenny Lofton to seal a 15-14 win for the Indians. And I watched the whole damn thing. It wasn't a sharp shooting pain, it was more like having your skin sanded off slowly over a couple hours, but it was still unpleasant.
Which makes this week's NSSR question kind of a no-brainer to me. Has your favorite team, in any sport, ever lost a gut-punch game?
What else is on your mind this week?

When you're doing a hypertrophy phase, are you eating an excess of calories to ensure that you're building forearm muscle? That is, are you eating more calories than you're burning? Has anyone measured their forearms before and after a hypertrophy phase to see if the muscles have actually hypertrophied?
You are working such a small muscle group, I highly doubt anyone would see any measurable size gains from a single hypertrophy phase. The best measure of your gains is how much additional weight you can handle anyway. As far as eating and calories go... once again, small muscle group. If you aren't doing a full body workout then I doubt you will see much of a difference between maintenance calories and consuming extra. I do advise a high protein and carb meal immediately after working out, which pretty much everyone should do regardless of goals for optimum recovery.
But, how do you know the performance increase is from hypertrophy and not recruitment? Also, despite being a small muscle, will you gain muscle without eating an excess, however small, of calories?
they (hyp and recruitment) are different things though. i basically agree with dustin's post on calories. i basically just try to keep my protein intake a little high, and have a recovery drink (fruit smoothie w/ protein powder) after my workout. my wife says my forearms get bigger during my hyp workouts, but i think she is just trying to make me feel better.
I think you have a slightly misguided concept that there is a magic dividing line where hypertrophy stops and recruitment starts or that you can really do one without needing to do the other. They are inter-related in that they drive each other. In weight lifting terms: Increasing recruitment makes you stronger, which drives the ability to train with more weight on the bar during the hypertrophy phase, which drives a progressive loading over time, which drives hypertrophy itself, which creates more muscle fiber, which can then also be recruited. We typically think along the lines of rep ranges and whether they are optimal for recruitment (1-5 reps), hypertrophy (6-8), anaerobic endurance (8-15) or pure endurance (>15). But that is an incomplete look at things. If you only trained at 6-8, seeking hypertrophy, you would slowly get a little bigger for a while and then plateau. But what if you mixed that up with recruitment as well? Well, suddenly because you are stronger from the recruitment, you can now do your higher rep hypertrophy protocols with a heavier weight than before and continue to drive the hypertrophy response. Then you're bigger and when you do recruitment again you've got a bigger base of fibers to recruit and get stronger and they cycle goes on and on. It's part of the reason for periodization that doesn't often get talked about. We tend to talk about peaking for a goal/comp, or avoiding injury, or hitting a wall of progress/point of diminishing returns with respect to a particular aspect (endurance/recruitment/etc). Increasing recruitment and using that ability to keep training at a higher intensity (i.e. with more weight) will create the stimulus that in turn creates the hypertrophy. We also tend to get too fine grained about this stuff. Yes, you want to optimize your time, but everyone is different and the important thing is to A. Do the training and track it to ensure progressive overload, and B. Cycle through the aspects (whether in a std periodization scheme, or by mixing it up some other way to ensure you train them all because improvement in one is not indendent from the others).
I understand what you're talking about and that is actually what's driving my questioning. I'm glad you brought up the rep range analogy because that makes things a lot easier to talk about. So, I'm speaking under the assumption that you're not actually building any muscle during the hypertrophy phase because that's sort of the impression that I was getting. Whether that's true or not is a different conversation, one worth having, to be sure. But, let's assume you're not building any muscle because you're not in a state of caloric excess or because isometric work is not good for building muscle, or whatever. So you're doing your hypertrophy phase, which consists of 2 sets of 12 reps. Yes, if you are an untrained individual that's going to increase recruitment. But, if all you're getting is recruitment (because we're assuming no hypertrophy) then you're time would be much better spent doing 3x3 or something like that. That's all I'm saying. The thing is, the hypertrophy phase from the rockprodigy article, if I'm understanding it correctly, is definitely designed with hypertrophy in mind, and not recruitment. When training for recruitment, one generally wants as close to full recovery as is possible in between efforts. That means long rests.
This is a pretty interesting topic and would certainly benefit from someone with some actual scientific research in this area. As far as calories go... When we are talking about excess calories and muscle growth, as far as I know the excess calories are needed for absolutely maximum muscle growth potential. I have personally been on a pretty extreme diet now for 3+ months where I have been eating 1000+ calories under maintenance on most days. Compared to 6 months ago I know for fact that my forearms are bigger now despite the calorie deficit. So maybe that is a result due to the timing of when I eat or just a fact that you can grow muscle even when consuming less calories than ideal. I don't know for sure. If anyone has some sources for research on calories and muscle growth, that would be very interesting to read. My opinion on hypertrophy is that it seems silly. To train solely to increase the size of your muscles is what body builders do. We don't want extra mass to have to carry up the rock that otherwise does very little for us. We want as much power density (aka strength to weight ratio) as possible. We want every single muscle fiber in our arms to be doing work when we need it. This is where max recruitment comes in, AKA strength training. When I train, I train to become stronger and that's it. There is certainly a proportionality between strength and muscle size, but it's certainly not linear. You can get enormous increases in strength with very little to modest increases in muscle size. Either way, that's just my opinion on the subject. I have not gone through a full blown periodization program yet, but I have done two 8 workout hangboard cycles where I focus on maximum weight hangs with full recovery between sets and have seen enormous improvements. I'll stick with that method until I reach some sort of obvious plateau. I'd personally need a lot more convincing than what is provided in the rock prodigy article before spending time in a 'hypertrophic' phase.
I agree that you don't want excess muscle mass, but I think more forearm muscle would definitely help more than hurt. I mean 1 pound isn't that much extra weight, but an entire pound of muscle (gained through myofibrillar hypertrophy) in the forearms would lead to phenomenal strength gains. Lets simplify, and say it's all about how much harder you can press down on a hold. Finger flexor muscles are going to have the most direct impact on how hard you can press on a hold. Let's say 100% of the contractile force is translated to the hold. The further you get away from the forearms the less percentage of the contractile force will be transmitted to the hold. So, maybe 50% of wrist flexors, and 25% of biceps. So adding a pound to each muscle is going to have a different payoff in force production transmitted to the hold. At some point the payoff is not going to exceed the added weight. Where that happens is anybody's guess. Maybe you're right and the payoff of extra finger flexor muscle does not make up for the weight gain, but I doubt it. Not very scientific. I know. But, I agree that a dedicated hypertrophy phase is probably unneeded for anyone, especially non advanced level climbers. Even elite strength athletes don't periodize in this fashion.
I have a lot of thoughts about this discussion, but in the interest of brevity...people waste a lot of time and energy arguing over what to call stuff. Focus more on what you should do and less on what you should call it.
i think people tend to misunderstand the role of hypertrophy for climbers (talking about forearm/finger). increasing the size and mass of the muscles isn't the only thing that is going on. you are trying to increase the individual strength of the fibers. this means that less fibers will be needed to hold a given load. it also means that the total load supported by the group can be greater. i tend to think of it like having an army in your muscle. if you are a good general, you can learn when you need to send a bunch of soldiers to do the task quickly, or you can keep sending small amounts of troops to do the job over a longer time period. in either case though, you want each individual soldier to be as competent as possible. the hypertrophy phase prepares your army for both of these situations. then the next phases teach them how to approach the task.
To train solely to increase the size of your muscles is what body builders do. We don't want extra mass to have to carry up the rock that otherwise does very little for us Would fingerboarding, campusing, or bouldering - no matter how they were done - increase muscle mass to the degree that the extra weight would hinder performance? The forearms are relatively small.
Yeah, I should have worded that a bit clearer. Any muscle mass you put on your forearms is going to be pretty insignificant in regards to overall body weight. You'd undoubtedly increase your strength significantly in the process of building forearm muscle. I'm just kinda disagreeing with the purported method for achieving finger and forearm strength I guess.
Oh yes, I'm sorry. My mistake.
Is the steep line 1 rep max slim?
What's the source? What do the numbers on the right mean? What does SSS mean? Why the sarcasm and lack of explanation?
chris, blue graph lowest line - average weight held (6 grip positions) during my 5 sec on, 5 sec off, 7 rep sets next 2 lines above are same thing but for 6 reps and 5 reps. the top line is the squareroot sum of the squares of the 3 lines below. red graph is the basically the same thing with a tweak for time held during a failed rep, but normalized as a cumulative damage function. diatom, the source is my january hangboard cycle. the reason that i am being sarcastic is that i think it is kind of funny that people who haven't put forth the time and commitment to REALLY train doubt the results. i don't have any question about the results - i have done a few hb phases here and there, and the numbers don't lie. another thing that doesn't lie is the correlation between where i am strength-wise and where i am sending-wise. i have almost 15 years of data that i can look at and see the results. my only regret is that i haven't done this for the 25 years that i have been climbing. so far in 2012 i have onsited 13 routes at or higher than my previous best onsite (despite having setbacks due to other non-climbing injuries, on top of an insane work schedule). from the data, you can see that i had an average gain in strength across the 6 grips of about 33 lbs. on my 1/4" crimp i had a gain of 60 lbs in january. the next time you are throwing the coal at a crimp and it just isn't happening, think about how nice it would be to have 30 extra lbs of crimp strength in each hand.
Thanks for clarifying your data. Unlabeled graphs make me rage :P I don't think anyone has made any statement about any particular method not working. We are just trying to discuss optimization here.

The Riverside Rams kept things in balance, especially in the first half, in their home opener on Friday.
The Rams ran the ball 14 times in the first quarter and the same number in the second quarter as they built a 22-6 halftime lead over the Kettle Falls Bulldogs. Riverside stayed with the ground-oriented attack in the second half to cement a 29-6 win in the Northeast A League opener for both schools.
"It's nice to get a league win under your belt, that's for sure," Griggs said.

Entertainment Services and Technology Association (ESTA), the trade association of the North American entertainment technology industry, has expelled the West Hempstead, NY-based lighting rental/sales/production services company GSD Productions from its membership. The following notice was faxed to ESTA's members on December 19:
"Notice to Members Pursuant to Paragraph 3A(iv) of the Code of Conduct
"Following a hearing on a complaint brought against GSD Productions, Inc., of West Hempstead, New York asserting violations of ESTA's Code of Conduct and confirmation by ESTA's Ethics Committee of the recommendations of the Code of Conduct Hearing Panel, GSD Productions, Inc. was expelled from membership in ESTA effective on December 19, 2003. The Level 4 Sanction of expulsion imposed upon GSD Productions, Inc. is the most severe penalty that may be imposed under ESTA's Code of Conduct.
"The ESTA Hearing Panel determined and found that GSD Productions, Inc. violated Provision 11 of the ESTA Code of Conduct by failing to follow through and complete its lawful agreement with Complainant Designlab Chicago, Inc., with respect to the rental of lighting equipment. Specifically, the Hearing Panel found that GSD Productions, Inc. failed to respond to the Complainant's efforts to collect amounts due for the extension of the initial equipment rental period and failed to return the rental equipment to Complainant. The Hearing Panel noted that only the empty equipment shipment cases were returned to the Complainant. GSD Productions, Inc. did not respond to the Code of Conduct Complaint and did not appear before the Hearing Panel at the scheduled hearing."
When contacted by Lighting Dimensions about the expulsion notice, Glen Davis, president of GSD Productions, said, "We rented some stuff from Designlab and we wanted to buy it. They gave us a ridiculous price. We've been battling it out, and now this has happened. We sent back the cases because we didn't need them. It's gotten out of hand and we'll straighten it out. It definitely should have never gotten to this point and we want to fix it."
When read Davis' comments, Larry Schoeneman, president of Designlab Chicago, Inc., said, "They [GSD Productions] rented some equipment from us. Shortly thereafter, they returned the cases from the equipment. Toward the end of the rental, we contacted them about extending the rental or returning the equipment; they said that they wanted to extend the rental but they never paid for this desired rental extension. A couple of months later, we still hadn't received any additional rental payment. We contacted them and proposed that they purchase the equipment, because the rental had gone on so long that the cost of rental exceeded a reasonable cost of purchase. That's where it pretty much ground to a halt. They ceased returning our phone calls. We filed a case against them in court in New York and received a summary judgment against them, because they refused to participate in the legal process in New York State--they didn't bother to show up. If Glenn is interested in resolving this, I'm certainly willing to discuss this with him, but there hasn't been a phone call or any other contact from them to resolve this matter."
This is the first time ever that a company has been expelled for a violation of ESTA's Code of Conduct, which was adopted in January 1999 and was amended in January 2003 to accept complaints from non-members. Designlab Chicago is an ESTA member.

Verdicts & Settlements
Sidley 'Partner' Payout: Up to $1.8 M
Posted Oct 5, 2007 7:39 PM CDT
By Martha Neil
The 32 former partners of Sidley Austin who were demoted in 1999 will receive a payment of between $122,000 and $1.8 million under an age discrimination settlement approved yesterday by a federal judge.
"The amount to be paid to each of the 32 former Sidley [partners] was placed under seal," reports the Los Angeles Times. "However, the EEOC said that the payments averaged $859,375 per attorney, and ranged from a low of $122,169 to a high of $1,835,510. The EEOC said each of the lawyers either had been 'expelled from the partnership in connection with an October 1999 reorganization or retired under the firm's age-based retirement policy.' "
Some of the 32 demoted partners continue to work at Sidley in other roles, but the firm didn't elaborate on these arrangements.
Details of the settlement and its legal import are discussed in another ABAJournal.com post.

This stylish book touches upon a wide variety of subject matter pertaining
to things which I captured while living in San Diego between early 1978 and early 1985. Highlights of the first half of this book include 3 double page vistas of the Gaslamp Quarter in 1978 before redevelopment:
1. Looking northwest from 5th and G Street, standing on the southeast corner where Urban Outfitters store is today, featuring the west side of 5th street, where today many dine on fine cuisine.
2. Looking ne from the sw corner of 5th and F street, featuring the east side of 5th street on that block taken the same day as the previously mentioned photo.
3. Peering into the heart of Horton Plaza in 1979 E street facing toward 4th street, Francis Ford Coppola's "Apocalypse Now" is the movie featured on the Plaza Theaters marquee. It also features 4 sailors on leave, several go-go dance clubs, a guy making a phone call from a pay phone, a guy who looks like he's about to grab girl, and what could be construed as a furtive transaction.
This book really brings back the character of the era. I'm confident you'll find them fascinating. The last half of the book is loaded with pictures of the natural beauty of the San Diego area and some of it's local events such as Thunder boat racing on Mission Bay (pink Circus Circus Hotel Casino Las Vegas sponsored boat being chased by pink CC helicopter going full-throttle over 200 mph! Look at that rooster tail!)
Absolutely Iconic paparazzi style shot of Phil Collins, Tony Banks, and Mgr. Tony Smith of Genesis (all three inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in 2011), coming out of a Tower Records store in April 1978.
There is also a 1986 photo of John McEnroe, multiple winner of the Wimbledon Mens Singles championship, captured in an absolute effortless moment during the finals match, before ultimately defeating Stefan Edberg during L A Tennis Open Action.
There are many gorgeous seascapes and sunsets included as well. This book you'll love!

John Mayberry provided the magic last night as the Phils topped the Fish 7-3 in 11 innings. Down 3-2 in the bottom of the tenth, Mayberry tied the game with a solo shot. In the bottom of the eleventh, he delivered a walkoff grand slam.
It was the first grand slam of the year for the Phillies. They are hitting .156 and on-basing .171 with the bases loaded in 2013.
Mayberry's second home run of the game was the seventh the Phillies have hit so far in four games in June. They lead the NL in June slugging percentage at .547. They slugged .391 in May and .387 in April.
They are also walking more of late, led by improved walk rates from Howard and especially Rollins. The Phils were 14th in the NL in walks in April and seventh in May. In four games so far in June they're tied for third.
The Phillies are 29-30 on the season after beating the Miami Marlins 7-3 in 11 innings last night. They've won three in a row and the first two games of the three-game set with the Fish. They will go for the sweep and a .500 record in the series finale this afternoon.
They are 12th in the 15-team NL in runs scored per game, but have scored 21 runs over their last three (they've scored seven runs in each of their last three).
Pettibone got the start for the Phillies and went six innings, allowing two runs, one earned, on seven hits and two walks. One of the hits went for extra-bases, a double. He struck out one.
Pettibone bounced back nicely coming off his worst start of the year. He's allowed more than three runs in a start just once in his nine outings. Lefties are still faring well against him, on-basing .395 for the season.
Juan Pierre was the first batter of the game in the top of the first and he singled softly to right. Quintero threw him out trying to steal second, though, and Pettibone got the next two hitters to set Miami down.
Marcell Ozuna led off the second with a double to left. Derek Dietrich was next and slapped a ball into left that fell for a single. Brown didn't handle the ball cleanly, it went off his glove for an error that allowed Dietrich to move up to second with Ozuna at third. Casey Kotchman was next and grounded to short with both runners moving up a base. 1-0 with a man on third. Pettibone got Adeiny Hechavarria on a ground ball to short for the second out with Coghlan holding third and handled a ball hit softly by Rob Brantly himself to end the frame.
Pettibone holds the Marlins to a single run, getting Hechavarria on a ground out with the runner holding third with one down.
Ed Lucas singled to center with two outs in the third. Pettibone retired Coghlan on a ground ball to second to set Miami down.
He threw a 1-2-3 fourth.
Hechavarria singled to center to start the fifth and took off for second as the count went 1-1 on Brantly. Quintero's throw to Rollins was very good and in time to get Hechavarria, but Rollins just dropped it for the second Phillie error of the game. Brantly singled to left and Hechavarria scored from second, putting Miami up 2-0. The pitcher Ricky Nolasco bunted Brantly up to second with the first out and Pierre followed that with a single to right that put runners on the corners. Pierre stole second before a walk to Lucas loaded the bases for Coghlan. Pettibone got Coghlan on a popup to Young at third with the runners holding for the second out. Ozuna flew to center to leave them loaded.
Again Pettibone keeps the Marlins from getting additional runs with the help of a big second out with a runner on third. This time it's Coghlan popping up on the infield with the bases loaded and one down.
Quintero made a great throw that should have been his second caught stealing of the game in two tries.
Pettibone walked Kotchman with one out in the sixth, but got Hechavarria to ground into a double-play behind him.
Horst threw a 1-2-3 seventh, striking out Brantly and Nolasco.
Horst dropped his ERA for the year to 4.70 with the perfect inning. He has a 1.93 ERA and a 1.39 ratio over 9 1/3 innings in his last 12 appearances. Still too many walks –he's walked six over those 9 1/3 frames.
Adams started the eighth with the score tied at 2-2. Lucas led off with a single to right and moved up to second on a ground out by Coghlan. Adams hit Ozuna with a pitch, putting men on first and second for Dietrich. Dietrich grounded to first for the second out with the runners moving up to second and third. Kotchman grounded to second to leave them there.
Fifth appearance for Adams since his return. He's allowed three runs on four hits and three walks over 4 2/3 innings in those outings.
Papelbon threw a 1-2-3 ninth with the game still knotted at 2-2.
Since allowing two runs in an inning in his first appearance of the year, Papelbon has thrown to an 0.44 ERA with an 0.63 ratio over 20 2/3 innings in his last 20 appearances.
Bastardo started the tenth. Pierre led off with a walk and Lucas bunted him to second with the first out. Pierre stole third and scored on a wild pitch with Coghlan at the plate, putting Miami back on top at 3-2. Coghlan flew to center for the second out before Ozuna doubled to left. Dietrich flew to left to leave Ozuna at second.
The wild pitch didn't really cost the Phils as Pierre would have scored from third on Ozuna's double anyway. The leadoff walk did, though.
Bastardo has been charged with a run in each of his last two appearances. He's walked 14 in 21 innings for the year, which is too many. He walked 26 in 52 innings last year, which is also too many. Righties are on-basing .396 against him in 2013 and lefties .306. He also has monster home/road splits this year. Opponents have posted a 293/420/537 line against him at home and 152/282/182 on the road.
Pierre was 2-for-4 with two stolen bases and a walk for the Fish. He's hitting 306/375/306 in 40 plate appearances against the Phillies this year and has stolen five bases.
Stutes pitched the eleventh. With two outs and nobody on, Brantly hit a ball hard that was deflected by Stutes and went for an infield single. Lefty Greg Dobbs hit for the pitcher Dan Jennings and flew to right to leave Brantly at first.
Nice inning for Stutes gives the Phils a chance to win it in the bottom of the eleventh. He's made five appearances this year and four of them have been good. In the one that was bad, he allowed two runs, one earned, both of which scored in his third inning of work. He hasn't allowed a walk or a home run in 7 1/3 innings on the year. Righties are 0-for-14 against him for the season and lefties are 6-for-13 with two doubles (462/500/615).
Overall the pen went five innings in the game, allowing one run on three hits and a walk. One of the hits went for extra-bases, Ozuna's double off of Bastardo. They struck out five.
Adams and Bastardo both threw 20 pitches in the game. Stutes threw 19. Horst and Papelbon both threw 13.
The Phillie lineup against righty Ricky Nolasco went (1) Revere (2) Michael Young (3) Rollins (4) Howard (5) Brown (6) Delmon Young (7) Galvis (8) Quintero. Michael Young returns to the lineup and third base. Galvis moves over to second with Hernandez on the bench. Quintero catches with Kratz resting and a day game scheduled for this afternoon.
Revere and Michael Young struck out as the Phillies went in order in the first.
Down 1-0, the Phillies went in order in the second and again in the third.
Michael Young reached on an infield single with one out in the fourth. Rollins was next and hit a ball into shallow left-center, but Brantly made a nice diving catch that took a hit away from him and changed the inning. Young stole second before Howard walked, putting two men on for Brown. Brown popped to short to leave both runners stranded.
Very nice catch by Brantly helps keep the Phils off the board. Howard continues to improve his walk rate — he's walked five times in his last 21 plate appearances.
Down 2-0, the Phillies went in order in the fifth.
Frandsen hit for Pettibone to start the sixth and drew a walk. Revere was next and grounded to third with Frandsen forced at second for the first out. Young followed that with another grounder to third with Revere forced at second. Rollins flew to right to end the inning.
Frandsen continues to post a monster on-base percentage despite a low average. He's hitting .239 and on-basing .375, thanks to six walks and four hit by pitches in 57 plate appearances. That's obviously a fluky huge rate of hit by pitch in a small number of plate appearances — at that rate he would be hit 40 times over 570 plate appearances. His walk rate in very limited time, though, is 10.5%, which is way higher than his career mark of 5.7%.
The Phils were still down 2-0 when Howard doubled off the wall in right to start the seventh. Brown struck out swinging for the first out before Delmon Young pounded a ball to left-center for another double, scoring Howard to cut the lead to 2-1. Galvis struck out for the second out, but Kratz hit for Quintero and blasted another ball off the wall in right. Young scored to tie the game at 2-2. Nix hit for Horst with two outs and Kratz on second. Lefty Mike Dunn came in to pitch to Nix and Mayberry hit for Nix. Mayberry struck out swinging to leave Kratz stranded.
The balls that Howard, Young and Kratz hit in the inning were all crushed.
Revere led off the eighth and hit a ball to third. Lucas fielded and threw to first, but Kotchman didn't catch the ball and Revere was safe on the error. Michael Young was next and grounded to third. Lucas went to second for the first out, but Young was safe at first. Revere was called for interference at second on a ridiculous call and Young erased from first. Rollins drew a walk before Howard flew to left to leave him at first.
The Marlins got a huge break there with the help of a bad call at second. Young hit the ball hard and just beat the relay throw from second to first. The second base ump ruled that Revere had reached out towards Dietrich as he crossed second. I didn't see that one and if Revere did reach out it was after the throw was made.
Like Howard, Rollins's walk rate is way up in recent games. He has 11 walks in his last 35 plate appearances. Prior to that he had walked 12 times in 211 chances for the season.
Righty Chad Qualls got Brown on a ground ball to short to start the ninth. Hernandez hit for Papelbon and dribbled an infield single towards second. Galvis followed and lined a single into center, putting men on first and second for Kratz. Kratz grounded into a double-play to end the inning.
Brown had an ugly at-bat to start the inning, getting ahead in the count and then swinging at a 3-0 pitch on the outside part of the plate to ground to short. Hernandez showed good speed on his hit, beating out a ball chopped past the first base side of the mound for a hit.
The Phillies were down 3-2 when Mayberry homered off of righty Steve Cishek on a 2-2 pitch to start the tenth. 3-3. Cishek got Revere and Michael Young behind Mayberry before Rollins drew another walk. Lefty Dan Jennings came in to pitch to Howard and Rollins was caught stealing to end the inning.
Huge home run for Mayberry off of a righty to tie the game. He's slugging just .380 against righties for his career.
Lefty Edgar Olmos got Howard on a fly ball to right for the first out in the eleventh. Brown was next and hit a ball out near the mound that Olmos didn't handle for an error. Kendrick hit for Stutes and bunted Brown up to second with the first out. Olmos walked Galvis intentionally, putting men on first and second for Kratz. Kratz walked unintentionally and the bases were loaded for Mayberry. Mayberry hit a 1-1 pitch just out to left to give the Phisl a 7-3 win.
Walking Galvis intentionally is ridiculous. He's hitting .160 and on-basing .222 against lefties this year. The Marlins should be overjoyed to see him coming to the plate in a big situation.
Another huge hit for Mayberry, this time off the lefty, gives the Phils the win.
Revere was 0-for-5 in the game. 3-for-his-last-25. First 0-for-5 of the season.
Michael Young 1-for-5 in his first action since May 28.
Rollins 0-for-3 and walked twice. Didn't handle Quintero's throw on a stolen base for an error. He's on-basing .387 over his last 102 plate appearances. 11 walks in his last 35 plate appearances is really a lot. He's on-basing .514 over his last 35 plate appearances.
Howard 1-for-4 with a double and a walk. He's drawn a walk in five straight games.
Brown had a terrible game coming off of a controversial home run celebration on Monday night, going 0-for-5 with a strikeout and an error. That's just his third 0-for-5 of his career. The others came on May 7 of this year against the Giants and on July 31, 2010 against the Nats.
Delmon Young 1-for-3 with a double and an RBI. Long double off of the righty Nolasco — Young's been terrible against righties this year. 3-for-his-last-11 overall with a double and a home run.
Galvis 1-for-4 with an intentional walk. 5-for-his-last-15 with three extra-base hits.
Quintero 0-for-2. 7-for-29 (.235) on the season.
Mayberry entered the game in the seventh and went 2-for-3 with two home runs and five RBI. Started the game with a .397 slugging percentage for the year and ended it at .454. He's 13-for-his-last-32 with a walk, a double and two home runs (406/424/625). Came in to last night's game 11-for-his-last-29 (379/400/414). He's hitting 324/359/595 against lefties for the season.
Hamels (1-9, 4.86) faces righty Jacob Turner (1-0, 0.00) this afternoon. The Phillies have lost six straight games started by Hamels and are 1-11 in his appearances this year. He has a 6.45 ERA over his last four starts and opponents have hit .326 against him those outings. Turner was the ninth pick of the 2009 draft and threw seven scoreless innings against the Mets in his only start this year.

Chiefs head coach Todd Haley has said that the key to his team's offensive success is "running it efficiently and then just figure out a way to turn that into points." However, with its current stable of running backs, the team is having major problems moving the ball on the ground one year after leading the league in rushing yards per game.
Obviously, a major reason for that setback is connected to the loss of RB Jamaal Charles, who suffered a season-ending ACL injury in Week Two. Charles was third in the NFL last season with 1,467 rushing yards, and he has been difficult to replace in the lineup. So, too, has OG Brian Waters, who was released in training camp. The veteran might have lost a step in terms of athleticism, but he is still a strong and physical blocker and was the anchor of the team's offensive line last season.
Since Charles went down, three different players have started at running back for the team. Thomas Jones, Jackie Battle and Dexter McCluster all have their strengths, but none can match the vision and breakaway speed that Charles possesses. That lack of game-breaking ability is why the running game isn't where it needs to be, highlighted by the league-low three rushing touchdowns by the team (one of which was by CB Javier Arenas on a trick play). Jones especially has been disappointing, gaining just three yards per carry, a career-low. One team insider said that it is clear the 33-year-old has, "hit a wall."
Waters' loss hasn't been as large, with second-year OG Jon Asamoah doing a serviceable job as a fill in. However, Waters, who now starts for the Patriots, hid a lot the deficiencies of his linemates with his savvy, and blocking as a whole has been an issue for the Chiefs this season.
We hear the team is well aware of its issues at running back, and it expects to take a player at the position next April in the draft. Charles is expected to be ready for training camp, though there is always a risk for players coming off knee surgery that they might not have the same speed or agility they had before their injury. Jones is a free agent after the season and is expected to sign elsewhere or retire. Meanwhile, both Battle and McCluster will return to complementary roles in the offense.

Garmont Eclipse III GTX XCR
4-star: 2
3-star: 0
2-star: 1
1-star: 0
I love the Garmont's overall but I am a little surprised…
Materials: leather, gore tex
Use: Hiking and casual
Break-in Period: none
Price Paid: $125
I love the Garmont's overall but I am a little surprised that the soles are wearing as quickly as they have! Other than this the shoes are comfy dry and fit very well, no break-in was required and that is a great thing!
My initially high opinion of the Eclipse has been…
Materials: mixed
Use: hiking walking
Break-in Period: comfortable out of the box
Weight: about a pound
Price Paid: $120
My initially high opinion of the Eclipse has been revised downward because the soles of both shoes are falling off/delaminating. I'll rate the shoes high for comfort. There was no break in required. The fit suited my larger than average foot.
They get a 0 for durability. The soles failed long before their was any significant tread wear. I will not ever buy another pair of Garmont footwear.
I've worn these shoes nearly every day for months…
Break-in Period: none
Price Paid: $125
I've worn these shoes nearly every day for months now, and am very pleased. I have used similar shoes for daily wear for 10 years now, but these are my favorites. This is probably because of the fit which is generous and supportive. My feet have stayed dry with one exception of once in really wet conditions when they got a tad damp.
The shoe has a nice wide fit which I need, yet I have not experienced any toe jam on downhills. I was even able to take these out for a run once when I was on vacation, and didn't expect to have time to get a run in. They seem to be durable, except the fabric on the inside of the heel which has pulled loose, but not affected comfort or performance. Then again, maybe I should unlace the shoes before I take them off.

It's often said that the perfect game of football would end 0-0, and Tottenham and Chelsea proved the inverse is equally true at White Hart Lane today as sloppy play from both sides resulted in an end-to-end encounter.
It didn't take Chelsea long to open the scoring as Gary Cahill showed that he can at least replace John Terry's effectiveness from set-pieces. Eden Hazard's corner was half-cleared by Wiliam Gallas to the edge of the area, where Cahill was lurking to smash a brilliant volley into the net.
It was a tight first-half which Chelsea edged thanks to Cahill's goal, with Spurs putting the away side under pressure but lacking a cutting edge, although Petr Cech was forced into a series of panicky clearances through Defoe's presence up front. Gareth Bale and Moussa Dembele's absences for Tottenham appeared to be telling.
In the second half, however, Tottenham redoubled their efforts and were rewarded, after Jan Vertonghen got on the end of a cross to the back post to pull the ball back for William Gallas to nod in, making amends for his earlier error. And it was not long before Spurs had taken the lead, the impressive Aaron Lennon finding Jermain Defoe in the area, who lashed past Cech from close range.
If Gallas had atoned for his initial error, however, he was soon to return to normal service. In a repeat of the first incident, Gallas was culpable for failing to fully clear a cross, allowing Juan Mata to pick up on the loose ball and fire past Brad Friedel. Three minutes later, Gallas was culpable again as he allowed Mata to waltz past him to collect Eden Hazard's fine pass and again finished with unerring composure.
That left Spurs needing to come back from behind once again - a feat that they looked unlikely to repeat. Mata almost completed his hat-trick shortly afterwards after escaping into space down the wing, but only chipping a tame shot into Friedel's arms.
Tottenham pressed for an equaliser, but Gylfi Sigurdsson could only enjoy two chances from range, one free-kick and one from open play, but sent both harmlessly over the bar, indicative of his underwhelming performance throughout the game.
In the end, it was Chelsea who put gloss on the scoreline, and Juan Mata was again the architect, dispossessing the ponderous Kyle Walker and setting Daniel Sturridge up with the simplest of finishes. A disappointing conclusion to the game for Andre Villas-Boas, but upon reflection, Spurs will take account of their absences and an appalling performance from Gallas as being decisive. For Chelsea, their run goes on, and is beginning to look more impressive with each passing week.

HANCOCK COUNTY, OH (Toledo News Now) – Storms last summer hit the area hard, and thousands of people in Hancock County went days without power.
The storm cost American Electric Power (AEP) nearly $62 million for repairs, which AEP now intends to pass along to its customers.
It comes down to about $3 extra per month for a typical household. The extra charge would be paid for one year. Some customers are angry when faced with an extra charge for poor service received.
"It's not my fault the storm came through," said David Blakley, who lost power for three days last summer. "I don't think I should have to pay for that. It just doesn't seem very fair to me."
Blakley said he already lost money because of the storm – he lost all the food from his refrigerator.
AEP is requesting a reimbursement of $61 million, to cover the cost of labor and materials. A company spokesperson said they can be reimbursed for storm fees exceeding $5 million, and having customers pay is a routine procedure.
But Jameson Botiner, owner of Waldo's Peppers, doesn't think the company should ask for that reimbursement. Botiner's restaurant lost power for a weekend during the storm, which he said cost his business $15-20 thousand.
"That really should be a part of their business plan, to deal with emergencies," he said of AEP.
A court ruling will occur in the spring to decide whether or not AEP can charge customers for the reimbursement.

Food and entertainment were definite pluses on the Norwegian Pearl and while we didn't love two of our ports of call most particularly the Norwegian owned, Great Stirrup Cay which looked like a former nuclear testing sight that had been bulldozed into a beach. The ports got better as we went along.
While we thought service in the restaurants was a tad basic we mentioned this to the Hotel Director and there was a massive change in the friendliness and warmth of staff.
Our room steward Cheryl was lovely, couldn't have been more helpful and friendly. Kudos's to the Entertainment director Julie, who managed to mix contemporary entertainment with family fun. But we absolutely loved Harald the head maitre d who went above and beyond to rectify our concerns and was an example of what real service was all about perhaps that's why he has 30 years of service under his belt.
Loved the state of the art gym (disappointed by the detached staff) and it was certainly worth the $120 to access the spa, sauna and steam for the week.
Wouldn't hesitate to go on a Norwegian ship again although the Pearls restaurants looked like they were ready for a refurbishment and please get rid of the plastic flowers.
Our tip is if you are not happy with something don't just put up with it and get off disappointed, you will find staff will make every effort to make it a wonderful experience.

What are the pros? beautiful, produces fruit
What are the cons? production time, finicky
bought my seeds years ago from Baker's only had 2 to germinate but got beautiful plants about 3-4 foot tall in container, starting 2nd year bloomed but fell off, then 3rd year bloomed again and self pollinated. Quite a few fruits on the plant but cold weather came before ready so placed in greenhouse, almost ripened the unexpected single digit temps hit our area and killed my plant. It is a beautiful plant and does fruit in time but you must be a very patient grower with this plant.

What are the pros? Interesting project
What are the cons? Does not fruit N of Florida
Here in chilly, grey Oregon is it a heat hog. Must have full sun, a manure load of manure, well drained moist soil. Prefers humidity. Seems to like grit mixed in the soil. Given its lust of sun and heat, not sure it'll do well as houseplant, but we'll see. Cutworms don't like it due to the hairy stem. Plan to experiment, with champion plants, etc. Well report more later.

What are the pros? love the plants
What are the cons? spiky leaves
I found naranjilla seeds at baker seed company after a forty year search for the fruit. Too happy!! Grew outside in 2 cubic meter pots on north side of house.tomato worms attacked early summer.otherwise no real problems. they got to about 3 to 4 ft. tall. they are flowering and setting on fruit. it1s mid oct. and am putting inside on cold nights and keep them shaded during the day. does anyone know how long fruit takes to ripen? how much light do they need during the winter and how warm to keep them?

What are the pros? Easy to grow, attractive
What are the cons? Long time to fruit
I started seeds indoors in February 2012, had good germination, grew seedlings under grow lights. Potted up to roughly 3 gallon ceramic pots in late spring or early summer, pots were outdoors under substantial shade. Plants grow very large leaves with a reddish/purplish tinge. I moved the plants indoors (at 5000' elevation in New Mexico) in mid-October in front of south windows. They started blooming in November; I didn't try to pollinate the flowers. They needed water frequently, gradually lost lower leaves, survived white fly infestations. I moved them back outdoors under substantial shade in May 2013. They have set some fruit, some of which appear to be full size, but not yet ripe at the end of August 2013. Most of the bare stem areas have buds but have not regrown leaves. They need frequent water; desirable to grow them in much larger pots.

What are the pros? Rare Ancient Crop, Unique
What are the cons? None
I bought my first packet of Naranjilla seed from Baker about two years ago and love my plants. I have found that they need a little extra calcium and magnesium and iron to really grow and set fruit properly. Maker sure you use a well rounded fertilizer formula with plenty of potassium too. When the plants start turning a little pale they are hungry. My current set of one year old plants pictures can be found on eBay showing the different stages from seedling to harvest if anyone is interested. All in all naranjilla plants are fun to grow once you get the hang of it and it is almost like growing a plant from another planet. Even the bees that pollinate the naranjilla are the metallic green ones that hover in place.. very cool! Plants can still get spider mites and aphids so watch out for them. Use big 25 gallon pots filled with sand for best results. Pick ripening on the plant takes a long time, at least several months so be patient. Harvest fruit with pruners and gloves.

A Harrisburg woman who allegedly scalded an 8-year-old boy by holding his hands under hot running water is headed to court on felony charges of aggravated assault and endangering the welfare of a child.
Keisha Moore, 31, waived her preliminary hearing Wednesday morning and allowed the charges to proceed to Dauphin County Court, where she's due for a formal arraignment on December 16.
Prosecutors said Moore told police she was upset with the boy, who was treated in the emergency room of Harrisburg Hospital on July 24 and later flown to the burn center at Lehigh Valley Hospital in Allentown.
Authorities believe the boy's injuries occurred on the morning of July 23.
Chief Deputy District Attorney Sean McCormack said the boy required surgery on his hands to prevent further tissue damage.
He said the prognosis is good
that the child will recover the full use and motor function of his
hands once they fully heal.

Every year, the Fantasy Football Maniaxs selects 10 players that are underrated and overrated fantasy options. A player that we consider to be underrated is one that puts up good numbers every week, but plays on a bad team or does not receive a lot of media attention. He is a player that a person playing fantasy for the first time does not consider over players that are better known.
Conversely, an overrated player is not a locker room cancer or somebody that plagues a team. It just means that he is either a veteran player in decline that does not quite produce at the level he used to or a guy that does things to help the team that do not score fantasy points. It could be a player in a big market that knows how to market himself better than score fantasy points for owners.

"We are looking forward to a Fourth of July ourselves," West Carlisle Fire Captain Mike Kennon said. "Anytime during the sale of fireworks, our biggest concern, of course, is random fires we might have in the unincorporated areas."
Fireworks go on sale Monday, and Kennon says they're expecting families to shoot off fireworks as early as next weekend. so he wants to remind people just how dangerous fireworks can be.
"We have numerous EMS calls, and most of the time, it's people shooting off fireworks from their hands or unsupervised with children. It's unfortunate. Fourth of July should be a fun thing, and it can be a fun thing," he said.
In addition to the yearly EMS calls for injuries and burns, Kennon expects even more fire calls than last year.
"After 2011, we lost so much acreage to dry burning conditions we didn't really have any growth that could catch fire," Kennon said. "This year we've had some rain, we have some growth and so we could possibly have some issues. We just don't want people to get a false sense of security when they're using fireworks because everything is so green."
So to make sure your Fourth is filled with fun, Kennon suggests the following safety tips when shooting off fireworks:
Kennon also wants to remind everyone it is against the law to shoot off fireworks inside the Lubbock city limits and you will be fined if you are caught doing so.
