Jets Defeat Broncos
Jan 16, 2013

According to a report monitored by the Japan Times, the Chiba Jets enter the All-Star break on a roll, picking up their fourth straight victory by thumping the Saitama Broncos 98-66 on Sunday afternoon at Funabashi Arena.
The Jets didn't rely on outside shooting an aspect of the game that many bj-league teams struggled with on the day to overwhelm the Broncos; in fact, they were only 1-for-11 from beyond the arc (that shot found the bottom of the net courtesy of Marquin Chandler).
Instead, Chiba found its comfort zone in the lane. That was where the majority of its points came from. And in his post-game interview sessions with reporters, Saitama coach Tracy Williams said he only recalled the Jets attempting three shots outside of the lane in the opening half.
It worked. The Jets, who built a six-point lead after one quarter, had 26 second-quarter points and, in doing so, increased the margin to 47-32 at the break.
Saitama had a dreadful start to the third quarter too many turnovers, too many missed shots, too many missed assignments on defense and Chiba exploited the Broncos' weaknesses, using a 18-0 run to open the half and take a 65-32 lead on a Kensuke Tanaka layup. That was the biggest margin for the hosts, who never let up the rest of the way, as exemplified by Tanaka, who had a pair of blocks, including one on a 3-point attempt in the fourth quarter, to go along with nine points, five rebounds, five assists and two steals in 28 intense minutes of court time.
Big man Joe Werner, a University of Wisconsin-La Crosse product, scored a game-high 24 points, including an 8-for-10 effort at the charity stripe, and pulled down 11 rebounds for Chiba (12-12). After the game, Jets coach Shinji Tomiyama said he considers Werner the team's MVP for the first half of the season, citing his energy on both offense and defense, and his productivity (19.6 points and 10.8 rebounds).
Commenting on the victory, Tomiyama said, "It was an important game before the All-Star Game. Good overall effort today on offense and defense. The guys played hard today."
Saitama, which has a league-worst 3-21 record, was 15-for-56 from the field over the first three quarters, and in the third, when Chiba pulled away for good, the Broncos were 3-for-19 from the field. They wound up with 53 missed shots out of 73 on the afternoon, including 15-for-54 from inside the 3-point arc.
Forward Chandler, who'll represent Chiba in the Jan. 20 All-Star Game at Ariake Colosseum, had a strong all-around game, finishing with 19 points, eight rebounds, seven assists and two blocks, and Marquise Gray scored 17 points. D'Andre Bell and Hiroki Sato finished with 12 points apiece for the Jets.
Newcomer Wayne Oliver led Saitama with 18 points on 7-for-21 shooting and teammate Yuki Kitamuki scored 14 on a 4-for-18 effort, while Nyika Williams had 13 points.
"Basically, we came out and we rebounded the ball well . . . but we just shot the ball terrible," Williams said after the game.
The Broncos did have more offensive rebounds (23-18 edge) than Chiba, but were outperformed in every key area.
"You can't shoot the ball 26 percent and win," Williams continued. ". . . That right there in itself is the tale of the tape right there. We picked a terrible time to not shoot the ball well, and as well as the fact of not really guarding (them) in front of the basket.
"Werner, he's tough, as well as Chandler, who I think is the best player in the bj-league. He does everything. . . ."
In defeat, the Saitama bench boss chose to focus on the positives.
"But the good thing I just told my team about was Chiba showed us how you've got to play," the coach said. "If I had to pick one play that describes what I just said, I would say it's 1:23 left in the game and they're up by 31 and their player (Tanaka) goes to the corner against Kitamuki and blocks his shot and closes out of it. See, that's how you've got to play to be a winner anywhere. You've got to play hard no matter if you're up by 30 or you're losing by 30.
"So I told my team for this not to be a wasted trip, we've got to take that example that Chiba showed us and learn from it. . ."
Five Arrows 57, Golden Kings 54
In Ginowan, Okinawa Prefecture, Takamatsu edged the defending champions on a day when Ryukyu's outside shooting delivered a big doughnut 0-for-17 from 3-point range.
Floor leader Dexter Lyons scored a team-high 16 points for the Five Arrows (10-16) and Brandon Penn added 13.
Narito Namizato and Anthony McHenry led the Golden Kings (20-4) with 13 points apiece and Jeff Newton had 11 points and 15 boards.
Ryukyu only put four points on the board in the second quarter, and shot 21-for-69 for the entire game. All those missed shots led to nonstop rebounding chances. The Golden Kings collected 26 offensive boards and 70 rebounds on the day, but failed to consistently capitalize on those extra opportunities to put the ball in the basket.
Hannaryz 78, HeatDevils 49
In Muko, Kyoto Prefecture, former NBA center Marcus Cousin and Gyno Pomare both notched double-doubles as the Hannaryz handed Oita its 13th straight defeat.
Cousin finished with 20 points and 12 rebounds, Pomare added 17 points and nine boards and David Palmer scored 18 points for Kyoto (14-12). Yu Okada chipped in with 12 points for the hosts.
Oita (9-17) shot 18-for-63 from the field.
Andre Coimbra had 20 points and 11 rebounds and Taishiro Shimizu scored 13 points for the HeatDevils.
Grouses 85, Big Bulls 68
In Mizusawa, Iwate Prefecture, Jeremy Jacob's 25 points spearheaded a balanced attack to lead Toyama to a bounce-back win over the Big Bulls.
Masashi Joho scored 12 points and Takeshi Mito and Tatsunori Fujie each had 11 for the Grouses (16-10). Big man Ira Brown added 10 points, 11 boards and four assists.
For Iwate (19-7), Carlos Dixon was the leading scorer with 22 points, Reggie Okosa had 19 and Lawrence Blackledge finished with eight points and 13 rebounds.
The Big Bulls were 4-for-19 on 3s.
B-Corsairs 79, Crane Thunders 61
In Yokohama, Draelon Burns scored 22 points and Thomas Kennedy poured in 18 as the hosts salvaged a series split.
Pape Faye Mour contributed 14 points and 13 rebounds and Masayuki Kabaya had an 11-point afternoon for the B-Corsairs (18-8), who play a Tuesday-Wednesday series against the Akita Northern Happinets in Hiratsuka, Kanagawa Prefeture, and Yokohama, respectively.
Lewis Witcher paced Gunma (5-21) with 16 points and Shingo Okada scored 15 for the expansion squad. Jermaine Dixon had eight points and four steals, and was 1-for-10 on 3-point shots.
Phoenix 93, Rizing 87
In Hamamatsu, Wendell White's 23-point, 10-rebound, four-assists effort guided the hosts to their second triumph in as many days over Fukuoka.
Kevin Galloway finished with 15 points, eight boards and eight assists for the Phoenix (19-9), while Jeffrey Parmer scored 14 points and Shoji Nakanishi and Yoshitomo Shiina supplied nine apiece.
Josh Peppers led the Rizing (16-10) with 25 points and Reggie Warren had 19 points and 12 rebounds. Jun Nakanishi scored 16 points for Fukuoka and Julius Ashby and Akitomo Takeno added 11 apiece.
The Rizing had 17 turnovers and shot 65.4 percent (17-for-26) at the foul line.
Susanoo Magic 99, Shining Suns 69
In Miyakonojo, Miyazaki Prefecture, Shimane rebounded from an overtime loss in the series opener, thrashing the hosts in the teams' final contest before next Sunday's All-Star Game.
Center big man Jeral Davis scored a team-high 24 points, raked in 14 rebounds and swatted five shots for the Susanoo Magic (17-9). Frontcourt mate B.J. Puckett added 21 points, 11 rebounds and five assists, Brandon Freeman scored 18 points, Tatsuhiro Yokoo had a 14-point outing and Edward Yamamoto poured in 13 points with four assists.
Shimane star Michael Parker, the four-time reigning league scoring champion, was sidelined with an injury sustained in Saturday's game. His teammates picked up the scoring slack in his absence.
Ricky Woods led Miyazaki (4-22) with 21 points. The Magic made him work for his points, sending him to the foul line for 12 shots (11 makes). Larriques Cunningham scored 14 points for the Suns, who shot 23-for-74 from the field.
Lakestars 75, Evessa 57
In Osaka, Dionisio Gomez was the tone-setter for Shiga in the series finale, scoring 24 points and grabbing 10 rebounds as the Lakestars earned a series split.
Wayne Arnold finished with 14 points and Ray Nixon had 12 points and five assists for Shiga (15-11). Veteran guard Jumpei Nakama scored 11 points in the rout.
In short, perimeter shooting cost the Evessa (5-19) the game. They were 2-for-21 on 3-point attempts.
Mike Bell and Rick Rickert paced Osaka with 19 points apiece, and Rickert hauled in 15 rebounds.

News from Akita: Power forward Ruben Boykin, who had a terrific 2013-14 season for the championship runnerup Happinets, will play for Ludwigsburg, the top-flight Basketball Bundesliga (Germany) club, this coming season.
The 29-year-old Boykin averaged 13.9 points and a league-high 13.5 rebounds for the Happinets. He had 183 assists against 93 turnovers with 52 steals.
In his one season in Japan, Boykin quickly emerged as one of the bj-leagues premier all-around forwards.
Akita recently announced it has re-signed high-scoring forward Richard Roby.
Firebonds update: Expansion club Fukushima has signed its first two foreign players, big man James Hughes, who split last season between Sendai and Gunma, and forward Nick Thompson.
Hughes played 21 games for Gunma (7.0 points, 5.9 rebounds) and 24 games for Sendai (8.8 points, 6.8 rebounds) last season.
The 211-cm Northern Illinois product said, I would like to thank Fukushima and Coach Theo (Hiroki Fujita) for giving me the opportunity to return to Japan. We look forward to show the fans hard work and excitement for their support.

As expected, the defending champions Ryukyu Golden Kings have decided to renew coach Tsutomu Isas contract for the 2014-15 season; the Japan Times can authoritatively reveal.
The Okinawan native has been with the franchise since its inception in 2007, working as an assistant coach for six seasons before being promoted to bench boss prior to last season. The Golden Kings had a league-record 43-9 record in the regular season and captured their third championship, tying the Osaka Evessas league record for the most team titles.
Under Isas direction, Ryukyus dominating defense and efficient offense overwhelmed opponents. Now, more of the same is expected in the leagues 10th anniversary season.
The 44-year-old Isas contract renewal was made official on Monday. American assistant Keith Richardson, who joined the club in 2008, will also be back on the Kings bench next season.
On the same day, the team announced guards Draelon Burns, Narito Namizato and Ryuichi Kishimoto and forward Anthony McHenry have reached contractual agreements with the club for the coming season.
Looking ahead to the upcoming campaign, Isa said hes reinvigorated by the work that awaits him and his team. There are new challenges, he said in a statement released by the team, and the goal for the 2014-15 has not been achieved (yet). In order to accomplish it, I will devote myself to building the team from scratch.
The Kyoto Hannaryz, meanwhile, finalized a two-year deal with coach Honoo Hamaguchi, who has guided the Kansai club to the Final Four in each of his three seasons at the helm. The Hannaryz are still vying for their first championship.
Hamaguchi, the only coach in league history to be in charge of a team on Day One of each season, received a two-year contract.
I am please to take command in Kyoto next season, said Hamaguchi. Ill try to do my best
Rebuilding mode: Coming off their worst season in franchise history (11-41), the Shimane Susanoo Magic are busy adding new players to the roster.
Just days after signing veteran guard Joe Chapman, the Bambitious Naras leading scorer (16.2 points per game) last season, the Magic have wrapped up the paperwork to bring in forward Edward Morris, it was announced on Monday.
The 203-cm Morris, a Pittsburg State (Kansas) product, has played three seasons in the bj-league. The 30-year-old averaged 15.7 points and 8.5 rebounds and threw down 57 dunks in 48 games for the Tokyo Cinq Reves in 2013-14. He spent the two previous seasons with the Shinshu Brave Warriors.
Shimane coach Reggie Hanson believes both veterans are solid additions to the roster.
Both of those guys bring a lot of versatility to the positions they play on both ends of the floor, Hanson told The Japan Times. They are hard-working, team-first guys that are willing to make sacrifices for the sake of the team to win games.
In related news, guard Shohei Nakama, who had been with the franchise since its establishment in 2010, will play for his hometown Hiroshima Dragonflies, the expansion NBL squad, next season. The 186-cm Nakama appeared in only 14 games this past season.
Staying put: Coach James Duncan, who orchestrated the Rizing Fukuokas impressive turnaround in the final months of the 2013-14 campaign, will return to the bench, the team recently confirmed in a news release.
The Rizing were 11-17 before the Canadian mentor took over as sideline supervisor. From February to April, Fukuoka went 15-9 and earned a playoff spot that seemed highly unlikely based on its abysmal start.
Duncan admitted there were adjustments that had to be made for the team to become successful down the stretch last season.
(Now), I am looking forward to building a winning team, he said in a statement, referring to next season.
Indeed, the seeds were planted for future success based on the teams rapid improvement in February, March and April under Duncans watchful eye.
A players perspective: Asked his thoughts on new Shiga Lakestars assistant coach Asami Morita, the promoted female team manager, Lakestars forward Dionisio Gomez dished out this insight to The Japan Times: I truly believe she has all the tools (for the job). She is a hard worker. The most important thing is that she has her goals set. I believe she wants to be a head coach some day. This is a great step towards that goal.
She has good knowledge of the game. Now she is in a position where she can continue to grow.
On the move: Veteran guard Masahiro Kano, who played for the Rizing Fukuoka from 2007-14, has finalized a deal with Shiga for the upcoming season. Kano, who turns 30 on July 27, averaged 4.1 points in 49 games for the Rizing last season. He scored a career-high 5.5 ppg in 2012-13.
Golden Kings dismantle Happinets in bj-league final As Kishimoto is named MVP
May.26, 2014 (by
According to the Japan Times, one run changed everything.The Ryukyu Golden Kings delivered the knockout blow in the third quarter of Sundays bj-league championship game against the Akita Northern Happinets. That carried head coach Tsutomu Isas team to a 103-89 victory and the franchises third title, which matches the league record set by the Osaka Evessa (2005-06, 2006-07 and 2007-08).With ruthless efficiency, the Golden Kings turned a two-point lead into a 20-point margin, using a 20-4 s...

According to the Japan Times, one run changed everything.
The Ryukyu Golden Kings delivered the knockout blow in the third quarter of Sundays bj-league championship game against the Akita Northern Happinets. That carried head coach Tsutomu Isas team to a 103-89 victory and the franchises third title, which matches the league record set by the Osaka Evessa (2005-06, 2006-07 and 2007-08).
With ruthless efficiency, the Golden Kings turned a two-point lead into a 20-point margin, using a 20-4 spurt that lasted nearly half of the third quarter at Ariake Colosseum.
Akita power forward Ruben Boykin had completed an old-fashioned three-point play, pumping his fist and high-fiving teammates at the 5:26 mark of the third quarter after a hard-earned putback that led to a free throw. That scoring sequence pulled the Northern Happinets to within 64-60.
Controlling the offensive glass they beat the Happinets 24-9 in that key statistic the Golden Kings created second chance after second chance for their high-powered offense. It helped fuel the super spurt. And at the same time, Ryukyu raised its intensity level, not unlike a high-powered sports car zooming into a high gear for the final laps of a marquee race. The Golden Kings offense simply overwhelmed their foe, and Akitas offense went cold, missing shot after shot after shot while quick-rotating defenders from the leagues No.1 defense (Ryukyu yielded a league-low 68.5 points per game in the regular season).
What was a fiercely competitive game became a one-sided contest.
Playoff MVP Ryuichi Kishimoto, who had zero points in Saturdays Western Conference final against the Kyoto Hannryz, had a hot hand all night, including during the pivotal run. Kishimoto finished with a game-high 34 points, including 7-for-12 from 3-point range. The 24-year-old guard also hauled in five rebounds. (In Ryukyus four playoff games, the Okinawan, a fearless gunner, flushed 15 of 30 3-point attempts and averaged 15.7 points.)
Early in the aforementioned spurt, three-time Best Five Team selection Anthony McHenry made a driving layup that seemed to have the trajectory of a line-drive double with a Louisville Slugger, and he was fouled. The subsequent free throw gave Ryukyu a 68-60 advantage with 4:34 to play in the third quarter, and Narito Namizatos layup off a turnover that was a Kings specialty on the night pushed the lead to 70-60.
Moments later, as Akita struggled to regain its offensive rhythm, Kings center Kibwe Trim sank two free throws to push the lead to 82-64, and Kishimoto followed with a textbook jumper.
Akitas Deshawn Stephens drained a shot to beat the buzzer and close out the third quarter, ending the run with his team trailing 84-66.
The Happinets pulled within 96-84 with under 2:30 remaining, but couldnt cut the margin to single digits.
Ryukyus defensive awareness and positioning were both impressive and consistent throughout the game.
All-Star Game MVP Yuki Togashi (30 points, specializing in slicing through traffic for tough layups, five assists, six turnovers), Richard Roby (17 points) and Ruben Boykin (17 points, 13 boards, six assists) carried the Akita offense, but credit the Kings defensive exploits for limiting the Happinets easy shots and opportunities to run up the score.
Kings guard Draelon Burns, a playoff hero for the 2012-13 champion Yokohama B-Corsairs, poured in 21 points, a fan-pleasing encore to his 27-point performance against Kyoto. Burns four 3-pointers and defensive tenacity paid big dividends.
Namizato, McHenry and Trim all scored 14 points for the 2013-14 league champs, who collected 50 rebounds (league legend and team icon Jeff Newtons jersey number; he now has a league-record six championships on his resume) and held the Happinets to 34.
Hard-working Trim, Newton and McHenry did their part in limiting 213-cm Akita big man Chas McFarlands effectiveness in the low post.
He was held to four points and four rebounds in 16-plus minutes of court time.
McHenry arrived in Okinawa in 2008 along with Newton, an anchor on the Osaka three-peat, and brought all-around athleticism and an ability to defend players at all five positions. This has remained a key trait for him and the teams success, winning that first title in May 2009 and adding a second in 2012.
The Kings are 3-1 overall in title games and have appeared in five Final Fours in their seven seasons in the league.
The spirited crowd of 10,026 featured loud chants from both Akita and Ryukyu supporters, and the back-and-forth competition saw the Happinets (43-13 overall) take an 18-10 lead on a Shigehiro Taguchi 3-pointer near the midway point of the opening quarter. Robys steal and jam made it 24-17, with Akita in front, and triggered a loud roar from their pink-clad fans.
The teams were tied at 24-24 after one quarter. Akita never held sole possession of the lead in the final 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, the Kings showed no signs of fatigue in the second quarter and put 31 points on the board.
Overall, Ryukyus 12-for-27 shooting from 3-point land doesnt look like jaw-dropping efficiency, but each of those shots was another dagger in the side of Akita, which was in catch-up mode but couldnt turn the tide.
Fittingly, Kishimotos jumper in the closing seconds accounted for the games final points.
At 7:11 p.m., the game ended and the Golden Kings were champions once again. Their 43-9 odyssey through the regular season was a warm-up act for what followed next: four victories in four playoff games.
Isa, the longtime assistant coach under ex-Ryukyu bench bosses Hernando Planells, Dai Oketani and Koto Toyama, carried the team back to the top and was all smiles in a post-game interview in front of TV cameras. He received the traditional doage (victory toss) from his players, three tosses, signifying each of the teams three titles.
When Kishimotos name was announced by commissioner Toshimitsu Kawachi as the MVP, he erupted with joy.
Looking at what the Kings accomplished this season, it isnt a revolutionary concept, but few teams manage to follow the winning blueprint as effectively as the Okinawan powerhouse.
The key ingredients? Organizational stability and championship experience on the roster and coaching staff.
Isa and assistant Keith Richardson have been with the team throughout their six playoff campaigns, and eight Golden Kings players have played for one or more title-winning bj-league teams. They expected to
be at Ariake, and their confidence shined throughout the title game with gutsy plays and composed clock management.
Grouses beat Hannaryz
Ed Odeven STAFF WRITER
In the bj-leagues third-place game, the Toyama Grouses defeated the Kyoto Hannaryz 84-62.
The Hannaryz, who appeared in their third consecutive Final Four, never staged a game-changing run. They trailed by as many as 26 points in the fourth quarter.
The Grouses jumped out to a 30-15 lead after one quarter. Kyoto was held to six second-quarter points, and it marked their sixth consecutive quarter at Ariake being held to under 20 points.
Toyama led 42-21 at halftime and 59-42 after three quarters, getting a buzzer-beating 3-pointer by Sam Willard for the final points of the period.
The Grouses won the Eastern Conference regular-season title for the first time in franchise history and also advanced to the Final Four for the first time. Under second-year coach Bob Nash, they finished with a 45-11 overall record.
The Hannaryz took second in the West, with third-year bench boss Honoo Hamaguchi guiding the club with a steady hand. They closed out the season with a 36-21 record.
Sam Willard paced Toyama with 20 points, adding 10 rebounds and two steals. Frontcourt mate Ira Brown had 16 points, 14 rebounds, six assists and three steals. Masashi Joho finished with 14 points, four assists and two steals, while Takeshi Mito had 13 points and seven rebounds with two steals.

What do an arts and crafts store, a furniture manufacturer, and a fresh produce distributor have in common? While I wish this was the opening to a good joke, the sad reality is that each one is a private business that has been allowed to assert a religious objection to withhold birth control coverage from their workers as a result of the Supreme Court's ruling in Burwell v. Hobby Lobby (Hobby Lobby). In its June 2014 decision, the Court held that certain private companies can use religion to discriminate against workers by denying them basic healthcare that is guaranteed under the Affordable Care Act (ACA."

From a newspaper article called Crossing Delancy: Food and History by Judith Segal. This is what was printed before the recipe "Families which follow the tradition of not eating gebruks should substitute potato flour for the matzoh during passover. A potato kugel may be "parve," containing neither milk nor meat. If it is being prepared specifically for a meat meal, however, rendered chicken fat may replace the vegetable oil. Because poor families could not afford many eggs, the old-fashioned potato kugels were heavier, leaden, due to fewer eggs (a function of cost) and no baking powder. The new, modern, kugels are lighter, creamier, more custardy and souffle-like, the result of using more eggs and adding baking powder."

Great ALL STAR Game...Homeruns by Tank McGrath, Peyton Warner and Bryce Reimer
MVP's....Tank McGrath....and CO MVP's Caleb Lavelle and Peyton Warner
This year's All Star game pitted the Champion Braves and 3rd Place Dodgers against the 2nd Place Cardinals and 4th and 5th place Giants and Phillies in Cochecton. Peyton Warner (Cardinals) got the start on the mound for the home team. Warner pitched a 1-2-3 first inning, getting nice outfield support from Ryan Mace (Giants) and John Chrisler (Cards). For the visiting team Braves ace Bryce Reimer took the ball and matched Warner with a 1-2-3 inning of his own. The top of the 2nd inning is where the visiting teams offense got started with back to back line drive home runs by Reimer and Tank McGrath (Dodgers). In the top half of the 3rd the visiting team added on 6 runs with hits by Owen Sager (Braves), Chad Mercado (Braves), McGrath, Bryce Maopolski (Dodgers) and Mason Reimer (Braves). The home team got on the board in the bottom of the 4th when Peyton Warner hit a towering home run that scored both him and Henry Peters (Giants). The home team scored their 3rd run in the final frame when Taylor Warner (Cards) delivered an RBI double.
Next year the Phillies will be switching to the Yankees, the Yankees were the Cochecton team in the past, up until 6-7 years ago and now will be the Cochecton team in the future. All Phillies players will be Yankees players next season.

Sonny's Service Center Braves (10) at Delaware Valley Oil Cardinals (0)--Braves continued their succesful 2014 campaign with a 10-0 win over the Conklin Hill Cardinals Thursday evening. Bryce Reimer threw the shutout striking out 16 of 18 batters. Ryan Fredo and Owen Sager contributed with clutch 2 out hits for the Braves. The Cardinals will look to rebound on Monday night at the Giants.
The 2014 season is a little past the half way point and let's look at what's happened so far and what we can expect for the finish to the season.
Starting at the top is something that is not really a surprise to anyone, the Braves are undefeated. What is a little bit of a surprise is how they are absolutely dominating teams. Through 8 games the Braves have scored 146 runs an average of 18 runs a game and have only allowed 6 runs for the season. Six runs through 8 games is a staggering stat, it shows how strong Bryce Reimer and Chad Mercado have been on the mound. They are striking people out and also allowing very few walks, keeping teams off the basepaths. Offensively they are talented from top to bottom, this team is one of if not the best in DVLFL history, led by veteran skipper Rob Zaccari.
The Giants started strong losing to the Braves by a score of 6-0 which is the closest game the Braves have played all year. Giants slugger Nick Mills went down with a broken finger a few weeks ago and the Giants have not recovered from that injury. The Giants have gotten good pitching from Cody Powell and Ryan Mace but fielding and hitting with runners on base have doomed this winless team. Ryan Sayers has been getting on base at the top of the order.
The Phillies are currently in 4th place and look to be a team on the rise. They played a great game two weeks ago beating the Giants 15-2 for their first win of the season. Damian Mueller is a solid pitcher who can keep his team in any game. They have a new coach and the team seems to be energized. I expect this team to win a few more games this season and really be a contender next year for a top 3 finish.
Now on to the biggest story line in these last 3 weeks of the season, the battle for second place between the Cardinals and Dodgers. The Cardinals hold a 1/2 game lead but have played one less game than the Dodgers. Looking at the schedule both teams have to play the Braves one more time. The two teams play each other two times on 6/12 and 6/17. That June 17th game should be the last game of the season for both teams (unless mother nature says differently). The Cardinals are led by Peyton Warner who is good with the stick and deceiving on the mound. Peyton's sister Taylor is maybe the most underatted hitter in the league. Caleb Lavelle (ss) and Dallas Gombita (1b) are great defensive players and have contributed on the mound as well. The Dodgers will give the Cardinals a run for second place. Slugger Tank McGrath has 18 RBI's on the season and Collin Swinnes is hitting an even .600, the problem is after that the Dodgers offense falls off a bit. If they can get on base, they have two batters who can do damage. The Maopolski brothers have been a solid addition to this team pitching and catching.
Players and parents enjoy these last couple of weeks and good luck to all the teams.
FRIDAY MAY 30th
Clancy's Diner and Ice Cream Dodgers (10) at Cochecton Oil Giants (8)--The Dodgers beat the Giants 10-8 in a suspended game from earlier this month. Collin Swinnes had 3 hits and 3 runs scored for the Dodgers. Reese Maopolski pitched a 1-2-3 inning striking out the side after getting a 2 run lead in the top of the 6th. Ryan Sayers scored 3 runs for the Giants and Ryan Mace added 2 hits and took the loss on the mound.
Cochecton Oil Giants (4) at Clancy's Diner and Ice Cream Dodgers (5)---The Dodgers won a nail biter 5-4 over the Giants Friday Night. The Giants had the tying run at 3rd base but Reese Maopolski struck out the last two batters to secure the win. Tank McGrath had a 2 RBI triple in the first inning to get the scoring started for the Dodgers. In the 4th inning Bryce Maopolski had a single that drove in 2 runs and gave the Dodgers the lead for good. The Giants battled with only seven players, Ryan Sayers had 3 hits and 2 runs scored. Ryan Mace pitched a great game striking out 14 batters and only allowing 5 runs with only 5 fielders behind him.
THURSDAY MAY 29th
Delaware Valley Oil Cardinals (30) at Freda Realty Phillies (5)--Peyton Warner homered to lead the Cardinals past the Phillies. Caleb Lavelle was the winning pitcher for the Cardinals. Damian Mueller hit a homerun for the Phillies.

Picked up a pint during a layover in Washington Dulles.
Nice head and a golden body, but pour head retention and lacing. Fairly mild taste for an ale, yet still tasty. Some decent hops stand out a little, but that about it for this one. Easy drinking, goes well with the college hoops game on ESPN.
If you're in dire need of refreshment in Dulles pick up a pint. But at $7 a glass, you better be damn thirsty.

Corporate social responsibility, business strategy, and the environment
AbstractWe examine the concept of firms sacrificing profits in the social interest within the environmental realm, with particular focus on the case of the United States by addressing four key questions. May they do so within the scope of their fiduciary responsibilities to their shareholders? Can they do so on a sustainable basis, or will the forces of a competitive marketplace render such efforts and their impacts transient at best? Do firms, in fact, frequently or at least sometimes behave this way, reducing their earnings by voluntarily engaging in environmental stewardship? Should firms carry out such profit-sacrificing activities (i.e. is this an efficient use of social resources)? We address these questions through the lens of economics, including insights from legal and business scholarship. Copyright 2010, Oxford University Press.

Apple testing curved glass smart watch?
Following a recent post by Apple Human Interface Group founder Bruce Tognazzini detailing the possibilities of an "iWatch," multiple reports suggest that Apple is indeed currently experimenting with designs for a smart watch. According to The New York Times, the watch would use curved glass to stand apart from competitors, quite possibly Corning's Willow Glass, which "can flop as easily as a piece of paper in the wind without breaking." Corning chief technology officer Pete Bocko told the Times that Willow Glass can "wrap around a cylindrical object and that could be someone's wrist." The article also suggested that an Apple smart watch would use iOS, and according to the Wall Street Journal, would perform some functions of a smartphone. Apple has discussed the device with manufacturing partner Foxconn, according to sources. The sources were unnamed in both reports, and Apple declined comment. [via The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal]

Everyone knows Nick Diaz has no desire to become a media darling or start granting interviews at the drop of a hat. Yet, once Diaz opens up, he normally becomes a "quote machine" without even trying very hard.
Diaz, who will meet BJ Penn in the main event of UFC 137 Saturday night on PPV from Las Vegas, Nevada, was just that during a recent conference call related tor the show.
"I fight harder than these guys, man. I fight harder than these guys, I look better than these guys, I do better than these guys and that's why," Diaz said. "And I don't get no help and I don't worry about no help. So that's what takes up all my time, training and trying to become the best in the world here, all right? That's what you're dealing with here. The whole world out there, ain't nobody can beat me."
Diaz has been a friend of Penn's and a former training partner, so when he was called to face "The Prodigy," he had second thoughts, saying, "I'm not happy about it at all. I'm fighting a guy who's my friend or was my friend and now I'm fighting this guy. I'm set to fight, assigned to fight a certain guy (GSP), I thought we had a deal."
Since ending his first go-round with the UFC, Diaz has went 11-1 with one no-contest. He has continued his training in boxing, almost signing a contract to face former champion Jeff Lacy before coming to an agreement with the UFC – something he has said regrets doing now.
Nevertheless, Diaz will bring nothing but his best when he steps inside the Octagon at Mandalay Bay Events Center Saturday and faces Penn.
"You've got people that want to see fights, they want to see good fights, they want to see a good fighter and that's what I'm trying to bring to the table," Diaz said.
MMATraining Take: Penn-Diaz is going to be an explosion waiting to be ignited. Both men feel like they have something to prove, so a knockout will be on the mind of each fighter. Penn has been in these big-time events before, while Diaz has not experienced the same level of competition since leaving the UFC. Penn's experience will prevail for him in this one.

The Java EE 7 Tutorial
21 Introduction to Bean Validation
Validating input received from the user to maintain data integrity is an important part of application logic. Validation of data can take place at different layers in even the simplest of applications, as shown in Developing a Simple Facelets Application: The guessnumber-jsf Example Application. The
guessnumber-jsf example application validates the user input (in the
h:inputText tag) for numerical data at the presentation layer and for a valid range of numbers at the business layer.
The Java API for JavaBean Validation ("Bean Validation") provides a facility for validating objects, object members, methods, and constructors. In Java EE environments, Bean Validation integrates with Java EE containers and services to allow developers to easily define and enforce validation constraints. Bean Validation is available as part of the Java EE 7 platform.

A group of rifle-toting hunters were trying to round up their hounds in Ocala National Forest (Lake County, Fla.) when they came across an illicit sewage dump. The smell emanating from the dump—apparently from a sewage truck that had improperly liberated its contents at the roadside location—was noxious enough to send seven of the hunters to the hospital.
Before Ajay Shankar Pandey took the helm as Ghaziabad's municipal commissioner, municipal contractors weren't being paid, officials were demanding bribes, and crucial services were falling by the wayside. So Pandey legalized bribery—contractors now pay the city 15% of what they receive for a job, and the funds are channeled back into city projects. In three months, the practice has garnered the city $4.7 million.
A group of Christians believes Isaiah 35:8 ("A highway shall be there, and a road, and it shall be called the Highway of Holiness") refers to I-35, which runs from southern Texas to northern Minnesota. They've been praying up and down the interstate in the hopes of keeping it free from tragedy (such as the I-35 bridge collapse near Minneapolis, and President Kennedy's assassination near I-35 in Dallas 44 years ago). Owners of the strip clubs and adult stores along I-35 landscape are not shouting "hallelujah."

"In a fantasy worldwhich probably won't happenI'd like to take minimal techno and make pop out of it, the same way Depeche Mode and New Order did 15 to 20 years ago," Matthew Dear told me in a 2003 interview. Guess what? Dear's fantasy world has become reality.
The transition from techno producer to singing/lyric-writing techno producer is rarely attempted, never mind executed with competence. Sterling examples could be cited on one hand (um, can I get back to you?), which makes this Detroit minimal-techno artist's stabs at being a laptop-tapping song-and-dance man so refreshing. He established himself in the early '00s the way most underground-techno savants do: with instrumental cuts geared for dance-floor devastation. But on 2003's Leave Luck to Heaven and 2004's Backstroke, Dear included his own vocals (think Bill Callahan or Leonard Cohenlow, lugubrious, lecherous), and the results were club gold that also clicked in the bedroom.
Asa Breed finds the man furthering his songcraft within the genre, his flat, sometimes stilted voice complementing his low-slung, artfully spare techno. The disc's first single, "Deserter," is twinkling, vaporous electro pop that falls somewhere between Seefeel and the Postal Service, and "Death to Feelers" coheres around an ultra-cute, spangly synth motif that typifies the record's tension between escapist and earthy inclinations.
Throughout much of Asa Breed, Dear achieves a serendipitous balance between the uplifting and the eerie, the hummable and the hypnotic, the tuneful and the texturally adventurous. You can hear a refreshing strain of electronic popwith occasional African-inflected rhythms and Jon Hassellesque ambiancestruggling to be born here. It's a sly, seductive effort that could help Dear break out of the techno ghetto. (Not that there's anything wrong with techno ghettos.)

How long will it take to get another car loan after a repossession? Does anyone know of lenders that work with individuals like me? I want to put together a plan now, so that maybe in 6-12 months I can buy a used car. Thanks for any and all advice. I don't think I can wait another 7 years!
