The story behind the man who made playing classic NES games a full-time job
I don't know what's interesting about watching someone play classic games while talking their way through it, but to this guy's credit he seems equally befuddled about his own charm. This is an interesting story about someone who basically backed into a huge following and a full-time career almost by accident and seems rather happy with the result.
The whole "Let's Play" thing leaves me cold, but if that's the way people like to interact with games and their favorite online personalities, who are we to judge? It's worth looking at this stuff and trying to figure it out; obviously a bunch of people see the value here.
This story touches on Nintendo's attempts to grab the ad revenue from Youtube personalities, the effects of ad blocking software on the video industry and a bunch of other stuff, but above all the subject of the story just seems so likable. It's great when good things happen to people who seem to be good themselves, and this is a neat look at a new way of appreciating older games.

New module - Simplify - customise the CMS interface
17 July 2009 at 9:37am Last edited: 17 July 2009 10:16am
Simplify Module
This is the initial alpha release of Simplify, a module that allows you to customise the Silverstripe admin interface without any coding, simply by setting security permissions.
- Simplify the Silverstripe admin, provides an easy way of turning features on and off
- Make your CMS Admin easier to use for non-technical end-users
- Permission based, so you can enable options for some users but not others.
- Over 24 new permissions to fully configure how the admin looks
- Easily add in your own custom Simplify permissions
- Supports i18n of permission descriptions
For a demo of what it can do, check out the attached image and download and try it yourself!
Check out the README file for installation and a Quick Start guide. More docs coming soon...
Just a quick introduction, my name is Daniel Pickering and I'm a web dev. I recently started using Silverstripe and I'm really enjoying using it. However I found that customising the admin interface was not easy - you could do it yourself with CSS, but then it wasn't user specific. So I wrote Simplify, to allow anyone to add or remove bits of the interface.
NOTE: This is an alpha release for testing purposes only - use in a production environment at your own risk.
Any comments, code reviews, critiques, ideas are most welcome.
Please read the README file before using

I really like the direction this is going. Nice job. I've been waiting for something like this.
Seems to me to use this, I need to create custom files like css_file_{my_group_name}.css and same for JS, etc. Am I on the right track?
What would be nice, and let me know if you've already handled this, is if you could block out the core SS files so you don't have to trip over them when customizing. Does that make sense?
Re: New module - Simplify - customise the CMS interface

Hi UncleCheese,
Thanks for your support
Custom permissions are easy, and created like this - say you have a module 'mymodule'
in the module _config.php :
if (class_exists("SimplifyPermissionProvider")) {
"MY_PERM_STUFF" => "My Perms - Do some stuff",
"MY_PERM_MORE" => "My Perms - Do some more stuff"),
Then all you need to do is create files with the same (but lower case) name as your permission:
and Simplify just picks these up automatically. They're optional, ie; you can only have a CSS if you want.
The 'class_exists' is so you can happily include your own Simplify perms in your module, and if they don't have Simplify installed it doesn't break.
Good idea with the blocking - are you talking about CSS/JS file or SS and PHP files as well?
If you look at the CSS/JS files you'll see I've kept them deliberately simple to reduce conflict.
I'm currently working with Decorators on DataObject and LeftAndMain to actually remove items from the backend before they get to the frontend - meaning its more secure, and we won't need so much CSS and JS

A sneak preview of the up and coming 'helper' interface for Simplify - this will allow you to hide any Page type, tab set, tab or field easily.
P - Page type
TS - Tab Set
T - Tab
F - Field
simplify_interface1.gif shows that the following items are hidden for Page:
The field: Root.Content.Main.MenuTitle
These tabs: Behaviour, To-do, Reports and Access
The Image Gallery page will be totally hidden - the user will not be able to create or view any of these Page types
simplify_interface2.gif shows that any of your own page types (eg; Yacht) or module type (eg; Blog Entry) are automatically included and available to be hidden too.

Are there any options within the module now or in future plans to create a permssion setting to only allow users to edit their profile so they can go in and change their password and personal details.
Re: New module - Simplify - customise the CMS interface
7 August 2009 at 8:14pm
vancouverWill - sure, the power of Simplify is that you can disable as much or as little as you like - I just haven't got to creating permissions for the footer where the user edit link is, but its planned for the future.
If you're talking about a page purely for users to change their password and personal details, that is a little outside of the scope of Simplify. If you want to do that, I'd suggest creating a custom page type to do this.

|Tom Kettle's Poems & Parodies
For a while I had been searching for a copy of this book. The edition I found was published in 1916 in the months just after Tom was killed on the Somme, and so there is an introduction commemorating his death. As well, within its pages is the dedicatory poem which he wrote for his wife Mary, along with the very last poem Tom wrote and dedicated to their little girl, Elizabeth Dorothy, a poem entitled To my daughter Betty, the gift of God. There are a few of his early poems included in the book, as well as some political and war poems.
Surely there would have been a kind of magic at work if I had found the book of poems in Paris. Tom Kettle loved the city of Paris, and when he was killed in the advance on Ginchy, 9 September 1916, Tom was less than one hundred miles north of the great metropolis. If he had survived the war I have to believe he would have travelled to Paris again, perhaps with his beloved Mary and their precious girl Betty. I can imagine the three of them on a breezy Spring afternoon, strolling hand in hand along the River Seine or through the shady tree-lined paths of the Jardin des Tuileries.
When we travelled up into northern France, just past the village of Guillemont, and the fields of Ginchy, the words of Tom's poems played on my mind. From the east storm clouds were approaching, a deep growling emanating from within them like the sound of bombardment, a mnemonic powering memories of a past, distant and cruel.
So here, while the mad guns curse
And tired men sigh with mud for couch
and floor,
Know that we fools, now with the foolish
Died not for flag, nor King, nor Emperor,
But for a dream, born in a herdsman's
And for the secret Scripture of the poor.[1]
All along the roads on which we travelled were small patches of beautiful vermilion-coloured poppies, their faces turned up to the expanse of chalky grey skies. Then from the roadway I saw the most extraordinary sight, and we stopped so I could photograph it.
There, a long line of poppies cleaves a farmer's field in two. This stunning natural pathway brought to mind the thousands of young soldiers, just like Tom, who had marched through these fields of northern France and many others across Europe. At the bidding of the enemy's weapons, they fell upon those fields and drew their last breath there. Now it is as though each one of these poppies sways in the breeze in memory of each one of those souls.
As the sun died in blood, and hill and sea
Grew to an altar, red with mystery,
One came who knew me
(it may be over-much)
Seeking the cynical and staining touch,
But I, against the great sun's burial
Thought only of bayonet-flash and bugle-call...[2]
We paused for a moment and stood in silent gratitude thinking about the history those poppies called forth to us. Stepping back into the car we continued along the roadway toward Pozieres, Thiepval, Lille, and on into Belgium. Dozens of military graveyards dot the countryside keeping the history alive for us, and Tom's words were ever present, whispering in my ear of the ultimate sacrifice made by so many Irish for the freedom of Europe.
Count me the price in blood that we have
not squandered.
Spendthrifts of blood from our cradle,
wastefully true,
Name me the sinister fields where the
Wild Geese wandered,
Lille and Cremona and ...[3]
The quotations included are from poems which appear in
Kettle, T.M., Poems and Parodies.
The Talbot Press, Dublin, 1916.
These poems are:
1. To my daughter Betty, the gift of God
2. On Leaving Ireland
3. A Nation's Freedom

|AmeriCorps Week highlights volunteers and programs
|News Archive - News Archive
AmeriCorps Week highlights volunteers and programs (originally published 5-13-10)
AmeriCorps VISTA volunteers Aaron Tebrinke and Janice Jamison are taking part in AmeriCorps Week (May 8-15), a national effort to engage more Americans in serving their communities this summer to eliminate poverty. Tebrinke is taking this opportunity to announce that on June 1, a GIS (geographic information system) street sign inventory volunteer project will begin, as part of the summer service initiative.
On June 7, 2010 in the Lincoln Courtroom in Beardstown, AmeriCorps Summer Associates will begin work on a GIS project for a street sign inventory. At 9 a.m. a brief ceremony will kick off the project, led my AmeriCorps VISTA Volunteer Aaron Tebrinke.
Tebrinke has been the practicing volunteer GIS technician for the City of Beardstown since last summer. He will conclude his term of service on Sept. 15, 2010, with the intention of keeping the GIS program sustainable for the use of the City of Beardstown.
Some of the completed GIS projects that he has made are a hunter and visitor map for Jim Edgar Panther Creek Fish and Wildlife Area, detailed area maps of the major multifamily structures for the City's fire department, and various public works projects. The hunter and visitor map for JEPC will appear in the Cass County Visitor's Guide that will show up on shelves around the region this month.
The summer project will run from June 7- August 1 and includes three Beardstown residents that have a solid interest in what GIS can do for the Beardstown community. Jonathan Folks, Weston Blake and Braxton Hoenes have volunteered their time to serve the community as AmeriCorps Summer Associates. Each of these men plan to use their knowledge that they gain from this service for their career paths in engineering, information systems and geographic information systems.
The volunteers will also be working on a GIS business profile that was started with Tebrinke and Janice Jamison. Jamison has been the AmeriCorps VISTA volunteer for the Chamber of Commerce since the fall of 2009. She has contributed to the service of the community with organizing a free tax preparation with Tebrinke and VISTA volunteer Barry Beck from Astoria. She has organized many events for the Chamber of Commerce including the Buy Beardstown Campaign and the Chamber membership silent auction and dinner.
"Volunteers are needed more than ever to help with the safety and health undertakings that the GIS program is encountering," said Tebrinke. "The budding GIS program is facing increasing demands for GIS projects, and volunteers can help the City of Beardstown fill this growing need. I'm extremely happy with the young men who have given their summer for service to help with this important safety issue. A detailed inventory of what the actual condition of the street signs are in will greatly help for a replacement grant that is coming up shortly. "
AmeriCorps VISTA provides full-time members to community organizations and public agencies to create and expand programs that build capacity and ultimately bring low-income individuals and communities out of poverty.
The website www.americorpsalumsevents.org allows visitors to type in their zip code to find local volunteer opportunities, recruit volunteers by posting their organization's projects, or get ideas for creating their own projects with friends, families and neighbors.

Panadería Los Cocos
The rosy-cheeked ladies behind the counter at this bakery will claim that they're baking in Puerto Rico's oldest bakery, a real find on the long drive between the west coast and San Juan. They might be right. The bakery has been cooking continually for 140 years and still uses wood-fired ovens to turn out fresh bread with a thick, dusty crust.

Shortly before the Cincinnati Bengals made the 27th pick in the 2012 NFL Draft, the agent for Rutgers WR Mohamed Sanu tweeted that his client was just selected by the Bengals.
A few minutes later, TV cameras showed NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell walking up to the podium and he announced the Bengals pick, and it wasn't Sanu. It was Wisconsin G Kevin Zeitler.
Apparently, someone played a very cruel joke on Sanu, who is projected as a 2nd round pick. Mike McCartney, Sanu's agent, tweeted out after the pick that someone apparently pranked Sanu.
Very cruel prank call to a Sanu tonight - very sad that someone would do that. My apologies to the twitter world for my tweet.
Round 2 of the NFL Draft will probably be kinder to Sanu. SB Nation's Round 2 mock draft sends him to the Dolphins with the 42nd pick.

NBC: Obama Preaches 'Unity' and 'Optimism' While Romney 'Relentlessly Attacked'
In a campaign report for Friday's NBC Today, correspondent Peter Alexander touted a sound bite of President Obama telling CBS's Charlie Rose: "...the nature of this office is also to tell a story to the American people." Alexander added that the President wanted to tell, "A story that gives Americans a sense of 'unity' and 'optimism'..."
Immediately following that glowing description of Obama's communications style, Alexander lamented: "But Romney, who's relentlessly attacked the President for mishandling the economy, quickly pounced: 'Being president is not about telling stories,' Romney said in a statement, 'Being president is about leading.'"
What Alexander failed to mention was the Obama campaign's idea of "unity" and "optimism" is accusing Romney of being a felon. Something which Obama's deputy campaign manager Stephanie Cutter did on Thursday, as she ranted about Romney's time as CEO of Bain Capital.
Alexander did note how contentious the campaign was becoming, but only in general terms that put Romney on defense: "Still, with this campaign becoming bitterly personal Thursday, both sides accusing the other of lying, Romney was once again forced to defend his business experience..."
Seizing on rumors that former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice was high on Romney's short list of vice presidential running mates, Alexander speculated on potential GOP discord: "Rice has been seen as a long shot, because her pro-choice views on abortion clash with the Republican Party's conservative base.....many conservatives who already doubt Romney's conservative credentials would obviously be deeply upset if Rice were chosen."
Here is a full transcript of the July 13 report:
MATT LAUER: Could it be Condi? Mitt Romney closer to naming his running mate and there's a new report that former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice is near the top of the list. This as former President Bill Clinton opens up to Savannah about the state of the presidential race.
SAVANNAH GUTHRIE: In the presidential race we're learning more about when Mitt Romney will announce his choice for a running mate and just who that might be. NBC's Peter Alexander is here with the details. Peter, good morning to you.
PETER ALEXANDER: Savannah, nice to see you this morning. The intensity has really picked up in this race, with another furious back and forth Thursday. And now add into the mix the new VP speculation as well. Could Condoleezza Rice be Mitt Romney's running mate? This as the President makes a campaign swing through the critical battleground of Virginia today, after opening up about his biggest mistake as president.
[ON-SCREEN HEADLINE: Decision 2012; Obama Discusses His Biggest Mistake]
ALEXANDER: With the latest polls showing the presidential race neck and neck and the Obama and Romney campaigns at one another's throats again Thursday, the President made a rare concession in an interview with CBS News.
BARACK OBAMA: The mistake of my first couple of years was thinking that this job was just about getting the policy right. And that's important. But, you know, the nature of this office is also to tell a story to the American people.
ALEXANDER: A story that gives Americans a sense of "unity" and "optimism," the President said. But Romney, who's relentlessly attacked the President for mishandling the economy, quickly pounced: "Being president is not about telling stories," Romney said in a statement, "Being president is about leading." Still, with this campaign becoming bitterly personal Thursday, both sides accusing the other of lying, Romney was once again forced to defend his business experience, responding with this new ad.
[ON-SCREEN HEADLINE: Decision 2012; Romney Faces Questions on Bain, VP Pick]
Late Thursday, the Romney campaign tried to switch the topic, blasting this fundraising e-mail to supporters, offering them a chance to meet Romney's choice for vice president. And at almost exactly the same time, the conservative Drudge Report website, with close ties to the Romney campaign, insisted a surprise candidate is near the top of Romney's VP list, former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. Rice has been seen as a long shot, because her pro-choice views on abortion clash with the Republican Party's conservative base. And in March she denied any interest in serving as vice president during an interview with David Gregory.
CONDOLEEZZA RICE: It's not for me. I love policy. I love public service. I'm awfully happy doing what I'm doing.
ALEXANDER: During a $4 million fundraising swing through Wyoming hosted by Dick Cheney Thursday, Romney praised the former vice president as a "great American leader," but didn't say a word about his own plans for a running mate. And we reached out to the campaign, the Romney campaign, late last night. A spokesperson told us they would not comment on the VP process, that's what they consistently tell us. But many conservatives who already doubt Romney's conservative credentials would obviously be deeply upset if Rice were chosen. As one conservative commentator tweeted, Savannah, last night: "Multiple assurances from team Romney tonight that Condi is not happening for VP." It would still be a big surprise if she was the choice.
GUTHRIE: Okay, so it's over before it begins. Peter Alexander, thank you so much.

. . . Obama is trying to lull the electorate to sleep with a bedtime story about how everything will be alright in the morning after we have a nice, long sleep. "The private sector is doing fine" he reassures us as he diverts our attention from the bad economy that's keeping us awake.
Meanwhile, his henchmen are breaking into the piggy bank on the dresser.

Obama gets right into the shopworn lefty excuse for their failures: "We have great policies, but we don't sell the policies to the American people very well." It's never, of course, that their policies are ill-conceived, and destroy our country and our freedoms.
So Obama is saying we are too stupid to recognize the brilliance of his policies and his socialist pie in the sky fantasies. He's really saying, "I didn't dumb it down enough for these slobs to comprehend what I was saying."
The thing is Obama has been telling stories his entire life, and they are all fiction, and we know it.

For the second time in less than a month, an armed robber struck The Medicine Shoppe at E11 "H" Street in Deer Park.
The latest incident occurred at about 4 p.m. Friday by a man who handed employees a note demanding pain medication. The suspect vaguely resembled the man who robbed the same business on Dec. 5.
In the Dec. 29 robbery, the suspect handed employees a note and indicated he was armed with a gun, although no firearm was displayed.

The staff seemed untrained. They tried hard, but did not have their act together. The room was really small even though we were on the Concierge level. Don't really see the benefit of paying extra to be there!
Fortunately, we got off every day. The excursions were great, but when we got back on the ship, nothing but aggravation. No nightlife to speak of. Fortunately, had jet lag most of the time.
Would not recommend you spend this much money for this cruise line.
Have cruised with Royal Carribean and they are heads and tails above this line. We could have gone all out on Royal Carribean and still only have spent half of what we did with Oceana and had a much better time!
Save your Money!!

A messy morning commute, several accidents were reported all over the state. From spinouts
to rollovers, though none were deadly. It's a winter that just won't quit and Rhode Islanders are fed up with it.
The sights and sounds of Winter are sticking around in Southern New England. It's not just the people who are done with the mess, Chuck Marcotte's snow blower is on it's last leg.
"It sounds like it's a little choppy there so I'm
hoping its going to make it," said Marcotte.
It's actually been an average Winter for Southern New England with about 20 snow falls, adding up to more than 3 ft of snow.
Marcotte agrees, "This is a tough year for her, it's been resting the last
couple of years, but this year it had to work hard."
Average or not, Dennis Beausoleil has had it.
"I don't know what worse, the price of gas or the
weather," said Beausoleil.
He's accepted he can't do anything about the price of gas, but what he can do something about, is getting Springlike temperatures.
Beausoleil says, "I"I'm going to Florida I'm getting out of here, I'm
not taking no chances."

Gatland goes for experience in Wales' Six Nations squad
2:12pm Tuesday 14th January 2014 in Sport
NEWPORT Gwent Dragons forwards Toby Faletau and Andrew Coombs have been named in Wales' 32-man squad for the Six Nations.
Warren Gatland has named an experienced group of players as Wales attempt to become the first trophy to win the title outright three years on the spin.
There are no shocks in the squad, although centre Jonathan Davies is included despite targeting a March return from the pectoral injury he suffered against South Africa last autumn.
Rhys Webb is preferred to Lloyd Williams as the third scrum-half in the squad.
"We've picked a pretty experienced squad and kept it fairly tight at this stage," said Gatland, who saw assistant Rob Howley coach Wales to the title last year.
"There is a possibility we may add one or two players in, there are a few younger guys that need a bit of rugby so we were keen for them to stay with the regions.
"Perhaps after the first couple of rounds when they have some more rugby under their belts we may add them into the squad.
"As we did last year which was hugely successful we are going to have the Wales U20 squad come in on Tuesday to train with us and we both got a huge amount from that. It gives us plenty of bodies and a good chance for those boys to come and train with the senior squad.
Forwards: Paul James (Bath), Gethin Jenkins (Cardiff Blues), Ryan Bevington (Ospreys), Richard Hibbard (Ospreys), Ken Owens (Scarlets), Emyr Phillips (Scarlets), Adam Jones (Ospreys), Samson Lee (Scarlets), Rhodri Jones (Scarlets), Alun Wyn Jones (Ospreys), Luke Charteris (Perpignan), Ian Evans (Ospreys), Andrew Coombs (Dragons), Ryan Jones (Ospreys), Justin Tipuric (Ospreys), Sam Warburton Capt (Cardiff Blues), Toby Faletau (Dragons), Dan Lydiate (Racing Metro), Aaron Shingler (Scarlets)
Backs: Rhodri Williams (Scarlets), Mike Phillips (Racing Metro), Rhys Webb (Ospreys), Dan Biggar (Ospreys), Rhys Priestland (Scarlets), James Hook (Perpignan), Jonathan Davies (Scarlets), Jamie Roberts (Racing Metro), Scott Williams (Scarlets), Alex Cuthbert (Cardiff Blues), George North (Northampton Saints), Leigh Halfpenny (Cardiff Blues), Liam Williams (Scarlets).

England away and France are the obvious pit-falls with Ireland not too far behind. This should be a really hotly contested 6nations with the world cup getting closer by the minute.
I hope Hooky can get some game time at 10. And maybe give North a shot at 13😊.

I belive Gats wants to make a statement and going for three grand championships on the trot will take some doing especially when you look at the away fixtures,
I fully expect some youngsters in the mix later on (depending on results of course)

"Easy..easy pay..easy in...easy out."
"WOW! Getting prepaid parking at this lot was the SMARTEST thing I did after buying my concert tickets! While everyone else was driving around in circles trying to figure out whether they wanted to pay $50.00 or $60.00 for parking, we literally WHIZZED into our parking facility and found our place that we only paid $12.95 for within moments!!!!! It was also more convenient when we left the event, as all of the other large lots were gridlocked, but we just WHIZZED out of ours and headed home! The only negative thing I can say was that there was one car that had parked sideways next to a building that made it very difficult for everyone else to get in and out, so they do need to monitor folks like that. But overall, it was WONDERFUL and I would DEFINITELY recommend the parking facility to anyone! I will be using your facility for any upcoming event that I will be going to in the future for sure!"
"very easy and convenient to Minute Maid. Thanks"
"Used this lot for the Paul McCartney concert at Minute Maid Park. Got there at 6pm, parked, put our voucher on the dashboard and left. Everything was great, only about 3 blocks from MMP."
This surface lot is 3 blocks from Minute Maid Park.
Managed by LAZ Parking (Houston). This location is a commercial parking lot.

This lot is on the southeast corner of Congress and Caroline. This lot is right across the street from the civil court house, and has two bail bonds on the lot.

Product review: Denodo brings old-school polish to new-fangled mashups
Denodo Platform marries sophisticated tools for working with relational databases and smart tools for importing data from Web, e-mail, and other unstructured sourcesFollow @peterwayner
In the collective imagination, the computers are busy merging into one grand, expansive database filled with minutiae about those pesky, emotive humans so that the machines will be ready for Sarah Connor. The database administrators and programmers know that the reality is more than a little bit creakier than this image -- even though they might use the image to pry some funding if they see a glint of malice in the eyes of the pointy-haired bosses.
Denodo is a Java-based collection of tools aimed at making it easier to start building SkyNet with just a click of a few buttons on some Web forms. The tendrils reach out over the Net, suck in the information in a wide range of formats, and then reformat it into an equally wide range of ways to store the data. Denodo's literature calls this a "mashup" because the term is trendy, but the tool was born long before the word, and it does much more than people usually associate with the term. The system will speak basic XML and Web services, but it will also reach into e-mail boxes and actually start to parse and attempt to understand the text inside them.
The main market for the product is the enterprise developer who needs to synthesize something slick from a collection of legacy systems that probably live under the control of data barons living on different sides of the battle lines in interdepartmental feuds that may go back centuries. Denodo can pull apart HTML and suss out information in e-mails, all without waiting for a recalcitrant team to find the resources to come to your assistance.
Mix and mash
There are already a number of interesting products on the market for creating these mashups. (See InfoWorld's reviews of WSO2 Mashup Server, JackBe Presto, Nexaweb Enterprise Web 2.0 Suite, Jitterbit, and Kapow RoboSuite.) Denodo emphasizes that it can do much more than just suck in Web services, mash them up, and spit them out as XML. It can also parse some data, take apart HTML, and even try to clean it up a bit along the way in what Denodo calls a "transformation and enrichment layer."
Denodo feels like a product that lives up to wearing the number 4.1 next to its name. It is a fully functional collection of data-moving tools that has built up over several generations. There are a number of smart extensions that someone had the bright idea to add to the platform over the years. At some time, there was a programmer who needed to mash up some mixture of data from a tab-delimited data file, mix in some calls to a JDBC server, and then store the result in a text-searchable database. All of these connectors and more are already implemented and ready to load in the Virtual DataPort (VDP) layer. The tool for taming the various data sources, the Virtual DataPort lets you page through a number of tables of data.

Marlins manager Mike Redmond has always envisioned shortstop Adeiny Hechavarria hitting somewhere at the top of the lineup — either first or second.
The 24-year-old shortstop, off to a red-hot start, still has a lot to prove before he permanently solidifies a spot there. But with veteran second baseman Rafael Furcal still trying to fight his way back from a hamstring injury (he will begin extended spring training on Monday and probably won't be back with the big-league team until the end of the month), Hechavarria has an opportunity to make an impression over the next few weeks.
On Saturday, Hechavarria hit leadoff for the second night in a row. How long will Redmond ride with Hechavarria in the top spot? Probably until he does something to move himself out.
Redmond's original plan was to have Furcal and Christian Yelich hit first and second, respectively. But Hechavarria's hot start — the second-best start to a season in Marlins history — is giving Redmond something to think about.
"It's just really a matter of when the time comes where Hech is patient enough, sees enough pitches and gets on base enough that he solidifies his spot up at the top of the order," Redmond said. "Maybe it's now. We'll see. But definitely, what he's been able to do has been impressive."
With his career-high, four-hit game Friday, Hechavarria put himself right behind Emilio Bonifacio for the second-most productive start in Marlins history. Bonifacio had 14 hits through five games. Hechavarria had 11 entering Saturday and actually was tied with Bonifacio, now with the Cubs, for the best batting average in the National League.
"We're giving guys opportunities to hit in spots where maybe they weren't anticipating and see what they can do," Redmond said. "Ultimately, somebody is going to run with that, take advantage of it and make me put them in there every day. That's the key."
• Redmond said there is no timetable for when the Marlins plan to have Furcal back. But he did say Furcal would spend this week at Single A Jupiter preparing himself for a minor-league rehab assignment.
Brad Hand picked up his first big-league save — and first since high school — with three innings of relief in Friday's 8-2 victory. But what is Hand hearing about following the achievement? The song he has chosen to play when he comes in from the bullpen: Miley Cyrus' Wrecking Ball.
"I had a few fans tell me on Twitter, 'Are you serious with that walk-up song?' " Hand said Saturday. "I don't know. It says I came in like a wrecking ball."
Reliever A.J. Ramos, who enters to Kanye West's Power, said he and the rest of the Marlins' bullpen got a good chuckle out of hearing Hand's song choice for the first time Friday.
• Maybe Hand can switch it to something from the punk pop band New Found Glory. As it turns out, the band's often-shirtless bass player, Ian Grushka, is a huge Marlins fan and is close friends with three members of the pitching staff: Tom Koehler, Dan Jennings and Steve Cishek.
"It started in 2011 when I was in Triple A," Cishek said. "He sent me a tweet. My wife grew up a huge New Found Glory fan, and I didn't know who he was at first. But she started freaking out. We met him in Sun Life Stadium one night, and then in the offseason in 2011 he was playing Boston so he left us tickets to go to a show and got Marissa and her brother to come with us."
Grushka, originally from Coral Springs, collects game-used items from the players. And Jennings said that Grushka sent him, Cishek and Koehler a guitar and guitar picks with custom photos on it.
"I'm sure he's got my spikes," Cishek said. "He might even have a jock strap."
Coming up
• Sunday: Marlins RHP Nathan Eovaldi (1-0, 3.00 ERA) vs. San Diego Padres RHP Ian Kennedy (0-1, 5.40), 1:10 p.m., FSNF.
• Monday: Off day.

DETROIT (WJBK) -- Family members are asking you to do the right thing, and help police catch the killer of a 28 year old Detroit man.
Larry Green was gunned down June 7, 2012, while sitting in the front seat of his car. The deadly shooting happened across from the C-Note Lounge on Van Dyke between 7 Mile Road and E. Nevada.
Green's sister Tiffany Green made a teary-eye plea to the public Wednesday, "If you were there that night and you witnessed this you're just as guilty as the people or person who pulled the trigger. I know there was a lot of people there so please come forward with the information."
Larry was one of 16 siblings, and was also a loving father. The 28 year old worked as an auto mechanic.
"If you don't want to do it for the family, do it for the money," said Tiffany Green. Crime Stoppers is offering a $2,500 reward for information leading to an arrest. The reward increased by $1,000 if the tip comes in before midnight Wednesday October 30, 2013. You calls to Crime Stoppers are always anonymous. If you have a tip dial 1-800-SPEAK-UP.

- proximity to south gate bridge and historic quayside setting restricts the level of development in taht location
- lack of significant footfall on south main street, poor retail potential, secondary location in retail/commercial terms
-long list of ready-made objections ready to be submitted - the public are sore at heineken's actions - what is generall yperceived as plundering a key part of the city's indiustrial and cultural heritage
- archaeology will be a huge issue - under and overground
imo, it is not a particularly good development site but a hugely important urban opportunity for the city - could be exactly what the city centre needs in terms of tourist/cultural/research oppportunities - part of extended food/drink heritage trail - english market - park- brewery link. city should consider purchase of the site (cpo). i honestly think if heineken were to put it on the market tomorrow, it would fail to attract huge interest - too messy.
i actually quite like the tanks - no real conservation interest but very interesting visually at that location

There's certainly very strong feelings towards Heineken on this one. I don't think purchase by the city will help matters. Just take a look at ChristChurch across the road from the brewery...its been closed off for more than a year. Nothing being done, and in my view the security of the building itself is threatened. We were promised a music venue as an addition to the Triskel. In who's lifetime is this going to emerge??
I don't want to see Beamish going the same way.

Because of the earliness of Easter and the lateness of the strawberry harvest, it is going to be a struggle for the California strawberry industry to cover the East Coast trade for Easter this year, said Louis Ivanovich, vice president of West Lake Fresh, a Watsonville, CA-based brokerage specializing in strawberries.
But by mid-April, he said, "there is going to be absolutely phenomenal volume and quality, and people can promote with abandon from probably the 15th of April to July 15. There is going to be a very substantial crop, a very steady production out there," and people can promote to their hearts' content.
"We need to [promote]," he added. "We need to figure out interesting ways to keep berries on the front page of ads for food stores" and to get foodservice operators "cranked up" in order to move the large crop that is anticipated.
But it is already happening, he said. "They are doing it." By the time volume cranks up, he expects the trade to be on board with vigorous promotions.
The April peak will come largely from the Oxnard district, with Santa Maria following. Watsonville will start to harvest some fruit as early as late March, "but it will be probably the third week of May when Watsonville will really start ringing the bell."
There is not the overlap among the districts that there was at one time. "The varietal shifts in the Salinas and Watsonville areas have pushed more toward a later start," Mr. Ivanovich said. "Years ago, when they were growing varieties like the Pajaro, there was a substantial amount of fruit being [harvested] in April and May." But since there is now "such a substantial volume coming out of the Oxnard area — and they need to go into May and June to try to pay for their programs down there — Watsonville is trying not to step on top of that deal. They are trying to make it a gradual stair step as that area winds down and they wind up."
Watsonville has "a much wider window in which to recoup growing costs," he said. "They are going typically to the first week of November and sometimes longer."
Great-tasting varieties have given the strawberry industry a boost recently, Mr. Ivanovich said. "We are just very fortunate to have a lot of good eating varieties," notably the Albion. "It is good flavor that brings people back" to buy more strawberries.
Seven or eight years ago, there were a lot of varieties in production that "had nice eye appeal but didn't quite have the eating experience that they have with the varieties now," he said. "Across the board, with proprietary and university varieties, we are seeing a return to a more traditional deep berry color," not only externally but internally as well, and more importantly a return to great flavor.
For the 2013 season, "our recommendation" is for retailers to begin providing a value to the customer of heavier packages from mid-April on, he said. "They want to start getting into two pounders, three pounders, four pounders. I think there is a great case for that, because we are going to have the volume to do it — the price points are going to be such that [marketers] can promote those to their clients, and people are really going to see great customer satisfaction when they are getting a nice-sized container and they can do something special."

She is the author of five books and her work has appeared in Newsweek, Reader's Digest, Vanity Fair, GQ, People, TV Guide, The New York Times and Sports Illustrated. Livingston has twice been awarded the Eclipse Award for Outstanding Photography.
Name: Barbara Livingston
What I do for a living: Horse racing photographer
How and when I was introduced to Thoroughbred racing: 1970s when, as a horse-crazy kid, my parents took me to the track.
My favorite racetrack: Hialeah

What I would like to see more of in Thoroughbred racing: Horses being led with fewer than two handlers and lipshanks
What I would like to see less of in Thoroughbred racing: Whipping
Three words that define what Thoroughbred racing means to me: I live to record it. (Yes … five words)
First Thoroughbred track I ever attended: Saratoga
Favorite All-time Thoroughbred: Sip Sip Sip
My personal best moment in the sport of Thoroughbred racing: Photographing the (Breeders' Cup-winning) broodmares Personal Ensign, My Flag and Storm Flag Flying together at Claiborne. Think of that history! On-track, photographing 17 of Cigar's final 20 starts.
Best racetrack food can be found at: Oaklawn Park, which actually offers some healthy fare … and has since at least the mid-1990s
My favorite jockey: Randy Romero (retired)
My favorite trainer: H. Allen Jerkens
My heroes: Allen Jerkens, the Bronte Sisters, Mozart
Person in Thoroughbred racing I'd like to have dinner with: Allen Jerkens (surprise). Todd Pletcher would be mighty entertaining, too.
My philosophy on life: Try your best and do the right thing
Favorite quote or motto: I'm ready for my close-up.
Favorite animal other than a horse: Deer, perhaps because they look like little horses
Favorite non-Thoroughbred racing sports event I have attended: Random Yankees game, in George Steinbrenner's box
Favorite food: Not sure, but make it healthy, please.

Favorite dessert: Mud pie
Favorite drink: Iced tea addict. Starbucks. Tazo. Black. Unsweetened.
Favorite scent: Wild roses and rose-scented soap
What I like about my job: Almost everything … including the physical act of photographing, especially if it's challenging (rainstorms, odd places, dangerous situations …anything to get the heart racing). Recording the sport's widely varied moments – great, good, bad and ugly. I especially love sharing photos and/or stories of lesser-known people in our sport, those so instrumental toward its success. I could go on and on and on with this question. My job is more than a passion … to borrow an old movie title, it's a magnificent obsession.
Favorite tech gadget: Don't care much about any, but I guess my iPhone
Twitter handle: @DRFLivingston
People I follow on Twitter: I don't spend much time on Twitter.
No. 1 Bucket-List item: Ride a horse on the beach. Oh, and if it were in Australia, that would knock two things off the list.

National Scholarships Office
National scholarships are highly competitive, prestigious awards that provide support for a wide range of enriching experiences, including study abroad, graduate study, federal employment, language learning, teaching, research, and public service.
The National Scholarships Office at the University of Maryland aims to provide undergraduates with the best possible information, for guidance and support as they learn about and apply for national scholarships.
We invite you to explore our website to learn more about national scholarship opportunities, and to contact us with any questions you may have. You can request an appointment or send us a question by email.
UMD Leads Boren Scholarship Awards for Third Year
For the third consecutive year, the University of Maryland leads the nation in Boren Scholarships – with 12 UMD undergraduates receiving awards for intensive international language study. This year's recipients will study seven languages in eight countries, including Brazil, Morocco, Senegal, Mozambique, Jordan, India, China and South Korea. The Boren Scholarship provides up to $20,000 for long-term (two semester or longer), language-focused study abroad.
In addition, two graduate students at UMD have each received a $24,000 Boren Fellowship for language study and research in South Africa and China. These fellowships can also provide limited funding for domestic language study that will supplement the international component.
This year, 165 Boren Scholarships were offered from a pool of 868 applications. Maryland's 12 awards this year are a new record, surpassing last year's total of 10. Maryland ranked No. 1 in the nation for Boren Scholarships in 2012 and 2013. Read about Maryland's newest Boren Scholars and Fellows here. (Carrie Hildebrandt, left and Joanne Angbazo, right)
Fang Cao Selected as a 2014 Truman Scholar
Fang Cao, a junior double majoring in biological sciences and computer science, is Marylands newest Truman Scholar. The Truman Scholarship is the nations most selective and prestigious award for undergraduates with exceptional leadership potential who are committed to careers in public service. This year 59 Truman Scholars were selected from a pool of 655 students nominated by 294 universities nationwide. Cao is the fifth UMD student to receive the Truman in the past seven years.
Cao has extensive leadership and community service accomplishments. As a sophomore, he founded a program at a local high school to tutor disadvantaged minority students in college-level biology. With Caos help, the schools average AP biology exam score improved significantly. Inspired by these results, he founded an additional tutoring program at the school to help students obtain their high school diploma and consider attending community and four-year colleges. The program now has two-dozen UMD students serving as mentors.
I plan to make science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education for disadvantaged students an important aspect of my career as a scientist, said Cao, who plans to pursue a Ph.D. in neuroscience. My commitment to this area is motivated from my own childhood experiences, having parents who were early in their STEM careers so they didnt have a lot of money. We lived in impoverished neighborhoods in the United States and England. High school provided me great educational opportunities, but I also witnessed the struggles of classmates whose parents could not help them with their homework in their STEM courses like my parents. I want to help these disadvantaged students succeed in achieving their dreams of a college education and STEM careers, if they so choose.
Three UMD Students Earn the Goldwater Scholarship
Three University of Maryland students have been awarded scholarships by the Barry M.

UMD Senior Erin Hylton Named a 2014 Marshall Scholar
University of Maryland Senior Erin Hylton, a civil engineering major in the A. James Clark School of Engineering, has been named a 2014 Marshall Scholar. She is one of 34 Marshall Scholars selected from a pool of more than 900 nominees nationwide to receive a scholarship, which fully supports two years of graduate study in the United Kingdom.
Erin's achievement places her in the front ranks of aspiring global leaders and reminds us all of the outstanding caliber of Marylands students, said History Professor Richard Bell, UMDs faculty advisor for U.K. postgraduate fellowships.
Founded by a 1953 Act of the United Kingdom Parliament, and named in honor of U.S. Secretary of State George C. Marshall, the Marshall Scholarships commemorate the humane ideals of the Marshall Plan, which contributed vitally to the reconstruction of Europe following World War II, and they express the continuing gratitude of the British people to their American counterparts. Prominent Marshall Scholars include U.S. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer and Pulitzer Prize winning author and journalist Thomas Friedman.
Hylton, who is currently studying in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, has focused her academic and future professional pursuits on water resource engineering and aims to devote her career to improving water resource access and quality in the developing world. With the support of the Marshall Scholarship program, Erin will first pursue a masters degree in hydrology and sustainable development at Imperial College London, followed by a masters degree in water science, policy and management at the University of Oxford.

PEORIA, Ill. -- Eighteenth District Congressman Aaron Schock has become the target of a group called the "Jobs and Progress Fund", which has bought thousands of dollars in radio and TV attack ads.
Those ads say Schock voted for "massive tax increases and mountains of debt". Schock's lawyer has called for the ads to be pulled from the airwaves as "blatantly false." So, who is behind the attack ads?
"Who the heck is the Jobs and Progress Fund?" Schock was asked.
"Well, we'll find out," replied Schock. "We are suspicious of who they are because they're a group that was just recently formed, and I'm the only member of Congress that they're attacking. And so, it seems a bit suspicious as to why they would be picking on one member of Congress in central Illinois who has a voting record very similar to others from Illinois."
"Have you ever seen anything like this before?" he was asked.
"Never," replied Schock.
There is a suspicion that the ad could be a peremptory strike to tarnish Schock's name among conservatives. It's not a secret that Schock is being considered as a possible candidate for Governor in 2014.

Klaves Named FGCU Men's & Women's Cross Country Assistant
FORT MYERS, Fla. – FGCU men's and women's cross country head coach Cassandra Goodson announced on Friday that Jeff Klaves will join the coaching staff as an assistant coach.
Klaves spent the 2011-12 season at fellow Atlantic Sun member ETSU, serving as a graduate assistant coach for the cross country programs and track & field programs.
"Jeff is a guy that has a deep passion for the sport," said Goodson. "He has an outstanding relationship with distance runners and knows how to relate to them. He also brings a great element of organization and energy to our program and I'm excited to have him here."
"I look forward for the opportunity to work alongside coach Goodson while representing Florida Gulf Coast University," Klaves said. "Coach Goodson has done an excellent job building the program with talented student-athletes and I can't wait to help continue what she has started. FGCU has a name locally and I believe the program has the facilities and resources to aspire for the same recognition nationally."
At ETSU, Klaves helped the Bucs' men's cross country team finish fifth at the 2011 A-Sun Championships, while three different runners were lauded with postseason honors, highlighted by Filip Jalovy being named the A-Sun Freshman of the Year.
Klaves guided the men's distance team to a 2012 A-Sun outdoor track and field title, in addition to three distance athletes earning medals in the process. The Bucs had six total All-A-Sun performers at the championships (three indoor & three outdoor). He coached an NCAA outdoor track and field regional qualifier in the 800 meters on the women's side.
While coaching the women's distance team, the women's track and field teams scored the most points in program history at the indoor and outdoor championships that had two All-A-Sun performers (one indoor/ one outdoor).
A four-year letterwinner in track & field at former A-Sun member Campbell, Klaves spent the 2010-11 season starting the men's and women's track programs at Hobbton High School in Newton Grove, N.C. During the inaugural season, Klaves led Hobbton to the state championships, while producing their first top-4 finish in the 200 meters.
At Campbell, Klaves was an NCAA Academic All-American and a two-time All-Atlantic Sun performer in track and field. He ranks in Campbell's top 10 all-time fastest times in the 800 meters, mile and 3000 meters.
