CHEERS to the MBTA for coming to its senses and realizing it made a mistake when it jacked up fares for disabled riders a little more than a year ago.
The MBTA announced earlier this week that it plans to make amends to users of the Ride paratransit program, which offers door-to-door public transportation for people with disabilities, by cutting fares from $4 a ride to $3 per trip.
In 2012, the MBTA doubled the cost of a ride from $2 to $4, causing an outcry among its 30,000 or so users and their advocates, who said the agency was seeking to close its significant funding gap by taking money from those who could least afford to give it up.
A study earlier this year noted that 17.6 percent of Ride users have cut back on their medications, and 22.3 percent made partial payments or skipped payments entirely for utilities; 71.5 percent said they have less spending money. Ride users generally have less than $2,000 a month in income.
The new, $3 fare should go into effect sometime in January.
A pre-emptive JEERS to anyone who would oppose a bill in the Massachusetts Legislature by state Rep. Paul McMurtry, a Dedham Democrat, that would allow the granting of liquor licenses to retirement homes. The idea is to allow the facilities to serve residents drinks with their meals.
After it was reported out of the Committee on Consumer Protection and Professional Licensure, the House gave initial approval earlier this week to the bill (H 3779) that would allow municipalities to grant liquor licenses to a continuing care community or retirement community.
"Some of the long-term care facilities almost have a restaurant, so it makes some sense," said Rep. George Peterson, a Grafton Republican. "We didn't have a serious concern on that one. Listen, I might be in one of those places someday."

Editor's Note: This FanPost has been mildly edited for promotion to the front page and various sections within Cageside Seats for your enjoyment, Cagesiders!
SPOILER Notice -- Warning: This post contains spoilers for the May 4, 2013 CHIKARA event in Porterdale, GA. It also contains a couple of second-hand spoilers from the May 3 event.
CHIKARA returned to action this past weekend with 'Battle Not With Monsters' and 'The Ghost of You Clings..." and luckily for you, we have the results from a wild weekend of CHIKARA action, catch the results from Battle & Ghost right here, but for now, let's take a closer look at a Cagesier's reactions from Ghost...
Part I: Warming Up the Crowd
The first match was by the local promotion that usually runs out of the venue. It was fine, with a couple of decent combo moments by the guys with matching outfits (Jon & Trey, which I know from the giant names on the backs of their Speedos). This may have been a dark match, as it happened before Gavin's song, but the Smart Mark cameras were rolling.
The Gavin song was a weak, but direct, rip on the Director of Fun; Gavin seems to have two feuds going, which is a lot for a guy who doesn't wrestle.
The second match was much more interesting. It was Chuck Taylor vs. some guy named Shenron. As far as I know, this match was not advertised, but there were a whole bunch of kids in the back holding up Shenron signs. They apparently knew Chuck Taylor was going to show up, too, as one of the signs was "Taylor fears Shenron." (I saw one of them with a sign in line, so it's not like Shenron passed them out before the match.) Of course, Taylor heeled it up and broke the sign in half before the match. In one of the many adorable kid moments of the night, the kid with the broken sign went around during halftime getting each of the wrestlers to autograph it.
So, Shenron's pretty good. He was flying around as much as he could with low ceilings, and the match was pretty athletic. Word on the internet is that Taylor and Gargano quit FIST Friday night, and Taylor was not a happy camper. He lost to Shenron, making a whole bunch of kids happy, and accelerating his downward spiral into wherever this storyline is going.
The third match was Jigsaw and Shard vs. Fire Ant and AssailANT. (I know the internet's all AssailANT, but I'm going by the shirt he wore later.) I remember Shard pinning AssailANT, but I can't seem to remember what led to that. It was a long drive home.
Part II: A Collection of Moments
Match number four was Gran Akuma vs. Sugar Dunkerton. The story of this match was Icarus. He kept on intervening to help Sugar, and Sugar kept waving him off. Eventually, things went sour. Icarus was caught messing with Akuma on the top rope, and Akuma won by DQ. After the match, much to the chagrin of the audience, Sugar flipped out. He's relatively local (Augusta, as I found out at halftime), and he was livid that he lost in front of his friends and family through no fault of his own. So he quit FIST.
I think that just leaves Icarus as a member of FIST, which brings to mind an ancient Zen koan: "How can a single man wear a similar outfit?"
The Amasis/Kobald match started off well, as Amasis drug Kobald around the ring and let every member of the front row pop Kobald in the chest. It was cathartic. I'm not a huge fan of Kobald, and Amasis pulled a Cena, shaking off two or three finishers before winning with a really weak-looking spinning elbow. It was not the best match of the evening.
The final match before halftime was Colony: Xtreme Force + Purple Ant vs. Spectral Envoy + Green Ant. This was advertised without the two additions, and I assume that was to keep from spoiling the Grand Champion result from Friday night. I wasn't terribly impressed with the match, but the crowd went crazy with the only "THIS IS AWESOME" chant of the evening. The high point was a set piece with three of each team in a row on opposite sides of the ropes, with one from each side trying to suplex one from the other. The momentum went back and forth between each pair in unison, until the trio inside the ring (the good guys) finally got their opponents over.
The end of the match was interesting. During the entire match, the baddies were trying to take off Frightmare's mask (like they did at WrestleCon). The match ended with Missile AssaultAnt removing his own mask and making it look like UltraMantis took it off, so the heels won by DQ. It actually looked kind of nifty.
Halftime came, and I was surprised by who got the love. You'd think from the DVDs that Sugar and Jakob would be favorites, but they were pretty available for chatting the whole time. Kingston was swamped. I didn't know he had that kind of fanbase.
Part III: Bruised and Beaten
Next up was Donst vs. Saturyne, and, as usual, Donst's nihilism dominated the segment. His real opponent, however, was Gavin. He started the bit by "shaving" Jakob's head with a razor that clearly wasn't on. Gavin stayed clear of the ring whenever Donst was in it, introducing Saturyne from the corner. Instead of Saturyne's usual every-type-of-move-in-the-book sampler, we got her being beaten and abused by Donst for almost the entire match, being, among other things, repeatedly powerbombed. She sold like gangbusters, though, and it got uncomfortable (which is good, since it was a heel doing the damage).
As the match was really Gavin vs. Donst, it ended with Gavin straying a little too close to the tiger cage and being grabbed by Donst. Of course, when that was broken up, Saturyne took the opportunity to quickly roll up Donst for the fall, which gave her a tiny bit of retribution for being slammed around the ring like a pigeon in a canvas bag. Donst got his hands back on Gavin, though, knocked him unconscious, cut off a huge chunk of his hair, and put it in his mouth. It looked like he swallowed it, which is pretty awesomely disgusting. The crowd chanted accordingly.
The last two matches were nuts and made the whole night worth the drive.
First up, the Grand Champion defense, Kingston vs. Angelosetti. Eddie Kingston came out with a slight limp, which I assume he got (or re-aggravated) in North Carolina. Angelosetti proceeded to demolish that leg for the entirety of the match. Touchdown was relentless, continually twisting, slamming, pounding, and stretching that leg, and Kingston got weaker and weaker on it, to the point where he couldn't even walk and only barely stand. Eventually, Kingston came out on top, but it didn't feel cheap, and he got "Thank You Eddie" instead of a Cena chant. Also, Touchdown increased his vocal fans from six of us to eight at the end of the match. There might not have been a whole lot of spectacular moves, but it felt intense. Because of the leg, the near falls felt like they were actually close, and it was hard to see how a hobbled Kingston could win until he did (off the top rope). I really liked this match.
Another adorable kid moment happened before the final match. The Batiri came out and acted all grrr arrgh. Then they stopped, looked kind of frightened, and pointed. There were two little girls wearing Batiri masks in the third row.
The story of the Campeones defense was an injury. Right after the first fall (a DDT by Batiri), Parker was hurt. Either he was actually hurt badly, or he's one of the greatest sellers in professional wrestling, because his face was red, he was crying, and had to be drug to the back. A slight knock on CHIKARA was that it took a couple of minutes before the help the ref called actually came. For the next 10 minutes, Matthews got whipped. The two Batiri relentlessly pounded him until a mistake left one of them on the ground, and Matthews snuck in a rollup for fall number one. The entire time, the crowd was loudly chanting "ONE POINT FIVE." Get it? It was actually pretty awesome.
Parker was a gamer, though, and came back out. If this was a work, he needs some sort of trophy for selling an injury. If not, he needs some sort of trophy for finishing the match. He was tagged in and gingerly worked to give Matthews a break. Also, Ophidian and Kobald were interfering the whole match. Ophidian still lands on his left foot when jumping down, so he's probably not healthy. Kobald sounds like a 5 year old at trash talk. When an (adult) fan said, "You're the worst," Kobald replied, "No, you're the worst!" They went back and forth repeating themselves over and over until Kobald had to join the action. Eventually, 3.0 retained, but they were pretty wrecked.
Final Thoughts
Of course, I rate the show an 'A' -- because live shows always feel like A's. I didn't see any mysterious packets change hands or anything suspicious, so I'll have to wait for the release to see if anything in the resignation storyline went down. I will definitely be giving smvod.com $10 when this becomes available. It's worth watching again.

ALBANY, N.Y. - Members of the New York State Senate approved the "Public Assistance Integrity Act" at the Capitol on Tuesday.
Senator Kathleen Marchione co-sponsored the bill with Senator Tom Libous to help prevent the misuse of EBT (Electronic Benefit Transfer) cards paid for with taxpayer dollars by prohibiting welfare going toward liquor, tobacco, gentlemen clubs, and lottery tickets.
EBT cards work like a debit card for welfare recipients. This card contains both Food Stamps and Cash Assistance. Food Stamps have strict regulations on what can be purchased, Cash Assistance does not. Cash Assistance is intended for items that can't be purchased using food stamps, like soap, toothpaste, school supplies and toiletries.
However, recipients have been found to use this cash assistance to buy cigarettes and beer, or even to fund an afternoon at the racetrack or an evening at a local strip club.
Currently, there are no laws or regulations against using taxpayer dollars for alcohol, tobacco, lottery tickets or gambling. New York spends over $2.7 billion each year administering Cash Assistance.
If signed into law, the Public Assistance Integrity Act would limit where EBT cards can be used and what they can be used for. Last year, the bill passed the Senate 56-3 but the Assembly didn't act on the bill. The Assembly needs to pass the bill this session or federal aid will be at risk, Senator Libous says.
The federal government has mandated that each state establish a system of fraud prevention in place by February 2014. If the state does not act, the federal government will penalize New York by cutting federal funding for Cash Assistance by 5 percent.

A power chord is a chord stripped of all its parts except the bare essentials:
E maj (02210) -> E5 (02xxxx)...I hope you know what the numbers mean, it's kinda hard to explain this to someone just starting...but don't get discouraged, you'll get it. Power chords are used ALOT in metal.
PS: the power chord is listed as E5 because the 2nd note (the '2') is a 5th and don't worry, it's not annoying.

Daniel Pudil reveals on twitter that illness has ruled him out of Watford's game at Ipswich Town
5:55pm Tuesday 19th February 2013 in Herts' Headlines By Anthony Matthews, Group Sports Editor
Daniel Pudil has taken to twitter to reveal that illness has ruled out him out of Watford's trip to Ipswich Town tonight.
The Hornets' left-wing back was taken off midway through the second half of Saturday's 4-0 win at Birmingham City after a relatively low key performance.
It is not clear when the Czech player became ill but he has tweeted: "I do not like to be sick and watch football just out of bed :( Good luck guys. Bring back 3 points for us!!!"
Pudil's absence will mean Gianfranco Zola will be forced into at least one change as his side go in search of their 10th away win of the season and potentially a place in the Championship's top two.

Also, whilst not quite a state secret, I'm not sure letting the opposition know early was a particularly smart move. They may not fear Pudil but it may allow them to adjust their plans just a little.

CHARLOTTE, NC (WBTV) - Although the name is Tiger World, and there are dozens of big cats there, this animal sanctuary in Rockwell, NC has many more animals.
That includes it's Syrian Brown Bears Brutus & Cleo who are in desperate need of a newer, larger enclosure.
This year's Boo at the Zoo at Tiger World will help raise money for their new home and give visitors a chance to trick or treat with the animals.
Tiger World founder Lea Jaunakais visited WBTV News Saturday Morning to talk about the event.

The Lubbock Police Department will turn its investigation into the death of a Lubbock teen over to the District Attorney's office...but no action will be taken until after the police investigation is complete.
Sixteen-year-old Thomas Mallory died Sunday after reportedly taking ecstasy on Friday night. A 911 call confirmed a time lapse between the time Mallory took the drug and the time the call was made. Since the death, we've had several calls surrounding the circumstances on the night Mallory was rushed to the hospital. It appears everyone has an opinion, but, of course, it is our job to report only the facts.
The media spends countless hours trying to separate fact from fiction. But until the police report is complete, we can only report what the police department confirms. To better understand the process of a death investigation, we spoke with Lubbock Police Sgt. John Gomez about what happens from start to finish.
First, when police respond to a call for a death or suspicious circumstances, they record exactly what they see at the crime scene. Next, the officer will identify as many witnesses as possible. In the meantime, an experienced investigator will be assigned to the case.
After the crime scene, investigators will continue interviewing witness and compile statements to try and reconstruct the victim's last activities that led up to the death. Next, the statements will be compared to the evidence and that's where witnesses can become potential suspects.
Police also rely on other departments like the medical examiners office to collect evidence, like the cause of death and toxicology reports. In the Mallory case, investigators are currently at stage four, trying to reconstruct the events of last Friday night, as well as continuing to interview witnesses. They're also waiting for the results of the autopsy report.
We've had several calls asking us to report the names of some of those witnesses. But in this case, those witnesses are protected since most involved are minors. In the state of Texas, minors are protected under the law, so we here at KCBD will not report names unless a minor is charged and tried as an adult.

Four games into the season we're sitting at 3-1 with a two game lead in the NFC West. However, this team does have some glaring weaknesses that have been detrimental to the development of our team under the new coaching staff. First we'll take a look at some influencing factors and then start finding some guys that can add talent to our roster at positions of need.
2012 Scheduling
Six games will be divisional matchups with the NFC West, four games against the AFC East, four games against the NFC
South North, and two games against the division winners of the NFC East and North South. Next years non-division schedule could very well be NE, BUF, MIA, NYJ, MIN, DET, GB, CHI, DAL, and NO. That is quite a gauntlet to run -- and the biggest consolation will be that Arizona, St. Louis, and Seattle will have to run it as well with the exception of the two division winners.
EDIT: Thanks to sanfranmdk for pointing out the error here. We played the NFC South last year which means next year we would play the NFC North and division winners of the NFC South and East.
Projected Finish
In this 49ers mock I'm predicting the Niners to win the NFC West and secure a first round home playoff game. Right now we have a two game lead in the West and the second highest probability to make the playoffs in the NFC. That says more about the strength of our division than anything else. With that projected finish we should be selecting somewhere between selection 21 and 32 in each individual round barring picks acquired or given in trade and compensatory selections.
Free Agency
This year was an oddity in that free agency occurred after the draft. Next year should be a return to normalcy with free agency taking place well before the draft. It's a bit too early to project what players will be available around the league but it does look like we have a decent amount of work to do retaining our own guys. I'll be assuming that we do so in this mock.
Quarter Season Team Needs
For the past several years pass protection has been the bane of this offense. We've invested heavily in the offensive line in past drafts but pass protection is still a major issue hindering what we can do offensively.
Our run defense seems to be as stout as ever but the secondary still needs an infusion of talent. Whitner was a great pickup and Rogers has been lights out, but both are veterans on the backside of their careers and Rogers is only on a one-year deal. We're still waiting to see if Goldson will return to 2009 form, Williams has not impressed, and our second corner and depth are huge question marks. We'll know more as the season progresses how Spencer fares when he gets up to speed and how Culliver progresses, but cornerback could still be a huge need in the off-season.
The Draft
This early in the season I'll only be looking at the first several rounds to address major team needs.
Round 1:
While I hate to go back to the tackle position in the first round, there isn't much choice. Joe Staley hasn't shown why he deserved his big extension and the majority of his costs are already sunk. Anthony Davis isn't progressing and is showing the same lateral agility and lack of foot quickness issues that have plagued his game at all levels.
The pick here has to be Riley Reiff (Iowa) if he falls or Levy Adcock (OSU) if he doesn't.
Round 2:
Cornerback was a serious issue heading into the last draft but we didn't address the position until round 3 with the selection of Chris Culliver. We've seen promise from him but his development will take some time. In the meantime Carlos Rogers is playing great but we've seen inconsistent play from whichever corner we put across from him, and Rogers is 30 years old and only on a one-year deal.
The pick here is Chase Minnifield (UVA) or Stephen Gilmore (SC).
Round 3:
We had quite a logjam at safety with last years draft and the free agent signings but it looks like we will be in the same boat next year. Colin Jones looks to be a special teams guy, Spillman doesn't look like he will ever be a starter, Maddy Williams has been a less than impressive pickup, Dashon Goldson might still want to be paid far more than his play calls for, and Reggie Smith has been terribly inconsistent.
In the third round we add Eddie Whitley (VT). He's a 2 year starter at free safety that has also played every position in the secondary. And you always know what you get when you draft a safety from Frank Beamer's system -- smart, aggressive, ball players that are always around the football.

Deciding to attempt to write for SB Nation changed my life in countless ways, some direct, some indirect. Among other things, it taught me that, for all intents and purposes, every fanbase is about 70-80 percent alike.
Every fanbase has Internet jerks. Every fanbase has the bandwagoners. Every fanbase has those who seem to root for a team just so they have something to talk smack about to their neighbor. And every fanbase has really good people who want to root for their team, enjoy themselves, and make sports a happy, entertaining distraction in their lives.
The other 20-30 percent is shaped by geography (how close you are to professional sports options, how close you are to certain rivals) and history (how much you've won, in which sports you have won). That's basically the formula, right?
Two events, both of which happened almost five years ago, crystallized this for me.
First, Bring On The Cats came to life right around the same time that Rock M Nation did. I started Mizzou Sanity in February, TB started K-State Sports and Beyond in March, and RPT started Every True Son in July. TB moved over to SBN in August, and RPT and I established our partnership in October. A lasting friendship started pretty quickly after that. We all look at sports a little differently, and we wear different colors of glasses (Tye prefers a purple tone, RPT and I prefer a little bit of black and gold), but we quickly came to realize that we were kindred blogger spirits, and the odd, funny-to-us-at-least Unholy Alliance began.
Within about a year and a half, we had this picture as proof.
And, of course, later this one too.
And this one.
(Side note: good lord, the weather was exactly the same for the 2009 MU-KSU game in Manhattan and the 2010 game in Columbia.)
The second event that really wrecked my "Our fans are awesome, and theirs suck" view of fanbases came in November of 2007, when Missouri ended a long losing streak in Manhattan. My Tigers won, 49-32, and were a week away from what would become the biggest Mizzou-Kansas football game in history. We didn't know it at the time, but the winner would become No. 1 in the BCS (for a single week, ahem). And as Mizzou players and coaches trotted off the field, KSU serenaded them with "Beat KU."
Geography shapes a fanbase, and both Missouri's and Kansas State's have been shaped by a dislike of the school that takes up residence in between them. "An enemy of my enemy," et cetera. (The same goes for a dislike of Nebraska, really.) The idea of the Unholy Alliance does go beyond that -- if RPT and I didn't actually like TB, PJ, etc., we wouldn't have taken things to such silly Photoshop levels -- but that is the foundation.
The last eight to 10 months have been, to put it lightly, hell on the Unholy Alliance. Mizzou went from flirting and "opening its blouse" for other conferences, to actually signing divorce papers with the Big 12. KSU fans were quite justifiably annoyed with that, both because of the temporary threat it placed on the Big 12 (since alleviated, obviously), the potential damage it might do to Kansas City sports (since alleviated, in my opinion, at least), and all of the bad feelings that go with what was, in simple terms, a break-up. I get that, and there's nothing I can do to change that. But with the "break-up" now officially complete, I wanted to write something to the good folks at BOTC and say that in my head, at least, the Unholy Alliance still lives, if not between Missouri and K-State, then at least between Rock M Nation and Bring On The Cats. To me, it was never solely about being conference rivals in the first place. It was about friendship, "kindred spirits," et cetera.
I got to eat lunch with TB a few weeks ago, I hope the opportunity will present itself again one day, and aside from the fact that I have established a career, in part, out of a system of numbers that really, really didn't like Kansas State's football team last year (sorry about that), I hold no grudge against KSU in any way. I would hope that, as time passes, KSU fans will think of Mizzou the same way I think of KSU.
Missouri has left the Big 12, and obviously that's Missouri's own doing, but there's another small matter here. Our programs' futures and histories have now split a bit, but the geography hasn't changed. As KSU fans chanted to Mizzou almost five years ago, I just wanted to come here and say … Beat KU.

Murder in Miami: Stan and Joyce Cohen
Guilty As Charged
Frank Zuccarello, the star witness, probably sealed her fate.
"She wanted her husband dead," he said. "The murder was supposed to look like a botched burglary."
He was lucid and believable as he described the planning meeting with Joyce Cohen at a North Miami Beach 7-Eleven parking lot and gave an exacting account of how the job went down, with the woman waiting on the ground floor while Caracciolo went upstairs and killed her husband.
Defense Attorney Ross accused the "conniving" Zuccarello, of make up the story in exchange for a lenient five-year prison sentence, which he had completed even before his testimony.
But the jurors obviously believed him. After hearing three weeks of testimony, they took less than a day to convict Joyce Lemay McDillon Cohen of first-degree murder.
The jury recommended against execution, and Judge Fredricka Smith imposed a life sentence, plus 15 years for conspiracy.
Smith told Cohen, "You committed the crime for financial gain, and you did it in a cold, calculating manner."
Joyce Cohen has been unsuccessful in a series of appeals, and she ultimately lost any claim to Stanley's estate.
Her son, Shawn, did receive a $106,000 inheritance. But he quickly blew it on drugs. A few years ago, the Miami Herald found him living in a cardboard box in a city park.
"I'm stuck in a rut," he said.

Mortgage shopping in 2009by Tim Manni
It's safe to say that our readers and site visitors are already well aware that mortgage rates are at historic lows.
But if you're going to take the plunge this year and either buy a home or refi your existing mortgage, here are a few things to keep in mind (excerpted from an HSH interview in Business Week):
You have to go back to around 1961 to find a time when 30-year mortgages had rates this low, according to Keith Gumbinger, a vice president at financial publisher HSH Associates in Pompton Plains, N.J. For that, thank the U.S. government, which is trying to jump-start the stalled housing market by buying up mortgage-backed securities. …
In ordinary times, one loan is about as good as another because most lenders' offers on 30-year loans are clustered within around a quarter of a percentage point. Not now. With the economy so shaky, lenders are all over the map in how much risk they're willing to take in making loans. So it really pays to shop around. …
Forget what you were told in quieter times about the pros and cons of fixed- vs. adjustable-rate mortgage loans. These days, all the best deals are on fixed-rate loans because that's the segment of the market that the government has been targeting with support. The securitization of adjustable-rate loans has mostly dried up, so banks don't want to originate ARMs, therefore they don't offer attractive rates on them, says HSH's Gumbinger.
There's more good advice there, so read the whole thing.

Ubuntu Patches Vorbis Tools
The Ubuntu security team has released an update to close a vulnerability in the Vorbis Tools for editing music files in Ogg-Vorbis format.
The free Speex speech codec is the root of the problem as it does not perform sufficient checks when editing file headers. A manipulated Speex files could give an attacker the ability to launch denial of service attacks against applications that rely on Speex. This could also open up a vector to executing arbitrary code, the Ubuntu security advisory warns.
Ubuntu versions from 6.06 to 7.04, 7.10 and 8.04 are affected. The corresponding Kubuntu, Edubuntu and Xubuntu distributions also have the bug. Users should use the update feature to update their systems say the developers.

No one at Alice Drive Elementary School would deny that Hazel Grace Kolb and Lexie Kinder are best friends.
"We used to dress all up and, put a crown on her hair, and wiggle a wand, and put on little play high heels and play around like little princesses," says Hazel Grace.
Their desks are side-by-side, in the third grade classroom, but lately Lexie's desk has been empty...
"It made me feel like she wasn't going to be in class anymore, like she wouldn't be there and everything," says Hazel Grace.
Until last week, when everything changed...that change is VGo, a 4-and-a-half foot remote telepresence system, giving medically homebound students new opportunities.
"It's not for every student, but at the same time, it can provide the school experience for students who can not be involved with that,"says Sumter County Schools' director of Specialized Programming, Shawn Hagerty.
It was Lexie's decision to personalize VGo, now dressed in bandages that once covered her pic line.
"Lexie's is precious, I mean, it's just, it's her. When I look at her, it just reminds me of Lexie," says Alice Drive Elementary School third grade teacher Ivey Smith.
When it comes on, V-Go's not the only one who lights up. Using The internet, Lexie can to drive to her desk.
"Lexie can you see the board?" Hagerty asks. "Yeah," she answers. "Do you have something to write on?" Hagerty asks. "Yes Ma'am," Lexie answers.
V-Go can take Lexie anywhere. For the first time, she rolled down crowded hallways to lunch, but getting around desks...is a challenge itself.
"I bump sometimes, but that's okay," Lexie says.
With a good friend close...anything seems possible. "Come on, come to me," says Hazel Grace to Lexie.
"In terms of interaction with others, in terms of friendship skills, in terms of feeling a sense of school culture, feeling the sense of remotely interacting academically, socially, it means the world to them," Hagerty says.
It's meant the world to the Kinder family. "She loves the school. She's been there since she was three, maybe two," Cristi Kinder, Lexie's mom. "We're just thankful that the school district has given us this opportunity and given Lexie the opportunity," says Lexie's dad, Scott Kinder.
And, to one third grader who's missed her classmate and friend.
"It's like she's finally back, yay!" says Hazel Grace.
Sumter County Schools purchased three V-Go robots under the pilot program. Each V-go costs about $5,000...about the equivalent of homebound instruction for a student.
The technology was developed by and is sold by VGo Communications. Verizon is a partner of VGo and the product can use a WiFi connection, as it does at Sumter School District, or the Verizon 4G LTE network.

Earlier this morning, SB Nation's Matthew Fairburn released a mock draft, and he's given the Panthers a player who would come in and be an immediate upgrade on the defensive line.
You can read the entire article here, but for our sake here's the player he has mocked to Carolina:
14. Carolina Panthers
Sharrif Floyd, Florida DT 6'3 297 Jr. - The Panthers will be hoping that one of the top three defensive tackles fall to them in the first round. Sharrif Floyd is our No. 3 defensive tackle and he slips to this pick in this version of the mock draft. The Panthers need talent on the interior of the defensive line. Floyd would be a good place to start.
Fairburn also wrote a fair scouting report on Floyd, and his conclusion of the DT from Florida is below:
Sharrif Floyd is an incomplete prospect with a ton of room to grow. He's the type of prospect that could rise throughout the pre-draft process. Floyd's performance is more impressive considering his flaws in technique. Floyd is only going to continue to improve. He makes the most sense as a disruptive 5-technique playing in a 3-4 defense. Players with his type of quickness make life easier for the rest of the defense.
If Floyd were to fall to #14 overall he would be a great fit for the Panthers. Ron Rivera has said on numerous occasions that he likes and wants players who are versatile and can play in either a 3-4 or a 4-3 formation, and Floyd fits this bill because of his size and speed. His technique is still a little raw, but technique is something that can easily be coached, whereas his athletic prowess is something that cannot.
The opportunity to draft Floyd had once been nothing more than a pipe dream, but with Sheldon Richardson's stock rising and teams being less concerned about Star Lotulelei's alleged heart condition it is possible that he drops to #14 overall and I imagine that the Panthers would rush to the podium if he were to make it that far down the draft board.
He is graded as a top three defensive tackle in this draft class, and with GM Dave Gettleman only offering Dwan Edwards a one year contract extension it appears that drafting a DT will be the route the Panthers take to filling their gaping hole in the middle of the defensive line.
What do you think Panthers fans? Do you think Floyd will make it to #14 overall? If he does, do you want the Panthers to pull the trigger? Sound off and let us know what you think!

Daily Dispatches From The Global Scene
Following in the footsteps of Karl Lagerfeld and Giambattista Valli, Alberta Ferretti unveiled her limited-edition collection for Macy's yesterday. To celebrate the launch, the Italian designer was on hand at the Herald Square store last night, where the likes of Glenda Bailey, Wendi Murdoch, and Mickey Boardman turned out to support her.
"It's difficult because for a big designer, it's important that the fit and quality is different from your normal low-price dress," Ferretti told Style.com. "I'm really happy about the realization of the collection. They made them young, modern, fresh—not cheaply made. Maybe I will buy too, why not?" she added with a smile.
And shoppers liked what they saw in the collection ($49 to $119) of bright summer dresses and light knits, with the long white maxi dress being a crowd favorite. (At left, model Shu Pei Qin wears one of the collection's floral peasant dresses.) "I would probably buy this and wear it every single day of summer—I've just got to have it for the Hamptons," one shopper said. Will there be more mass Ferretti on the horizon? The designer remained tight-lipped, saying, "We did the Eco collaboration with Emma Watson and now this, so we are exploring other collaborations at this point."

"This is the second year I have ordered Christmas cards from TINY PRINTS. I LOVED BOTH CARDS. I also got a lot of compliments on them. Excellent quality. Excellent service. Excellent Customer Service. I have also bought thank you cards and return address labels. Everything has been of the highest quality. I will not shop anywhere else! Thank you TINY PRINTS!"
"Overall I was happy with the card, but in retrospect I would not have wasted the extra money on getting the pearl shimmer paper - I am thinking the pearl shimmer may look better on designs that have predominantly white/lighter colors. But in terms of the design and overall quality, I am pleased!"
"I was impressed with the heavy weight of this card-nothing flimsy here! The print quality was great too, the card looked just like it did online when I made it. Thanks!"
"I am a graphic designer and deal with professional printers frequently. I know what good printing is, and what good quality paper looks and feels like. I was very impressed with how crisp and colorful my family photo looked on the uncoated paper. The paper stock was thick and sturdy, but not overly so. Overall, very high quality printing. It was my first time ordering a photo card through tiny prints. I will most definitely do it again."
"I've used Tiny Prints the past 2 years and have gotten rave reviews on my Christmas cards each time. There is more individuality offered to make your card perfectly suited for you."

TUESDAY, April 17 (HealthDay News) -- Maternal depression and dysfunctional cognition impacts mothers' behavior at bedtime and may affect infant sleep, according to a study published online April 17 in Child Development.
Douglas M. Teti, Ph.D., and Brian Crosby, Ph.D., of Pennsylvania State University in University Park, investigated the association between maternal depressive symptoms, dysfunctional cognitions, and infant night waking among 45 1- to 24-month old infants and their mothers. Three mediational models were examined (one mother-driven and two infant-driven) to clarify the association. The mother-driven model suggested that maternal depressive symptoms and dysfunctional cognitions about infant sleep impacted mothers' behavior at bedtime and nighttime and thereby predicted infant night time waking. The infant-driven models suggested that infant night waking impacted nighttime maternal behavior and thereby predicted depressive symptoms or dysfunctional cognitions.
The researchers found stronger support for the mother-driven model, which was further supported by qualitative observations from video recordings.
"Although we found greater support for mothers' behavior explaining the relation between depressive symptoms and infant night wakings, it's likely that both infants and parents influence infant sleep," Teti said in a statement. "This helps us better understand what factors influence infants' sleep in homes in which mothers are depressed."

Mitt's Puffing
By Jerry Zandstra Posted in Archived — Comments (7) / Email this page » / Leave a comment »
Mitt Romney's support has dropped in half in the most recent USA Today Gallup Poll released this morning. Two weeks ago he was at 8%. Now he is at just 3% - the same as Sam Brownback (3%) and far behind Rudy Giuliani (31%), John McCain (22%), Fred Thompson (12%), and New Gingrich (8%).
Why the sudden drop over the past few weeks?
The combination of puffing on Gov. Romney's part and dwindling support among Republican leaders who are learning of his social liberalism may have a serious effect on both the integrity of the Romney campaign and its potential for success. Fights with conservatives over the fact that Romney forced judges to recognize gay marriage in Massachusetts is not helping.
"Puffing" is a common term used in marketing and economics and usually means that a company is overstating its case. In some instances, it is as mundane as a coffee shop claiming it has the "world's best coffee" (see the film "Elf" if a visual is needed). Other times, puffery is more serious and borders on false advertising.
Puffing in presidential campaigns is on the more serious side. While endorsements are not the only gauge of health in a campaign, they do indicate something about both the breadth and depth of support for a particular candidate.
Former Governor Mitt Romney's campaign appears to be involved in a serious case of puffery. Claiming endorsements that are not real calls into question the integrity of the campaign and, ultimately, the candidate.
On March 5, Gov. Romney's campaign put out an impressive list of Michigan GOP county chairs, state committee members, and congressional district chairs who joined his team "as part of the Romney for President Michigan Grassroots Steering Committee." According to the press release, "They are ready to carry our message of change in Washington to the voters and organize a strong, efficient effort for turning out support on Election Day."
The problem is that some of these "supporters" are not quite committed to carrying the message.
In recent weeks, Romney's puffery has come to light. Some of his support is softer than Romney's camp claims. Rep. Brian Palmer says he is backing Romney "at this point." Macomb GOP Chair Jim Carabelli is listed but maintains that he is neutral and is "dating a lot of people right now" and has not pledged his loyalty to Romney.
Others are flat out claiming they did not give permission to be included in anyone's list of endorsements. Jack Waldvogel, another county chair, states "I did not authorize them to use my name in an endorsement." Joel Westrom, also a chairman, is stronger in his statement: "My name should not have been listed…I'm neutral in the Presidential race."
The problem with puffery is that no one fully knows how deep it goes or where the puffing ends and the truth begins.
It is also possible that some on the list of endorsers have simply changed their minds because of recent revelations about Gov. Romney's recent support for limiting Second Amendment rights, support for abortion on demand, and forcing judges to give out gay marriage licenses.
At first, it appeared that Gov. Romney's support for abortion might have been dated when video first appeared from his US Senate campaign against Ted Kennedy in the mid-1990s. But then video footage from his 2002 campaign for governor became public in which his support for abortion is still adamant. Still, some pro-life voters were willing to overlook this and take his claim of a conversion at face value. That claim took a serious hit when it was revealed that in April of 2006, Gov. Romney signed into law the provision of tax-payer funded abortions in the state of Massachusetts.
Time will tell whether or not puffery and social liberalism are a lethal combination in a presidential primary. Romney clearly has demonstrated both. Partly for these reasons, I am supporting Sam Brownback and serve on his national steering committee.
Jerry Zandstra
It's a two man race unless Fred Thompson gets in. However it's still a long time away before the primaries and one of the front runners could easily have a Howard Dean moment and instantly meltdown. If this Dean happens then Brownback, Romney,and maybe Duncan Hunter could fill in the void but for now it's just McCain vs Guiliani.(unless Fred Thompson gets in)
One of my main problems with Mitt is that he left MA with a weakened party and Deval Patrick. God help us if he replicates this record of "party-building" on the national level.
There is nothing lonelier than being a black Republican in Boston, Massachusetts
Yeah, and he didn't even stop the flooding last year. I thought he wore a cape.
One man a "party building" doesn't make.
"I think the fence is least effective. But I'll build the god--d fence if they want it."--McCain
"I would rather have a clean government than one where quote First Amendment rights are being respected" --McCain
No, Romney personally recruited dozens of legislative candidates for the 2004 election - raising $3 million as well. Not only did all his candidates lose but also the Republicans lost two seats leaving a veto-proof majority in the legislature. This "party building" failure was topped by his lack of practical support or campaigning for his Lt. Gov (a weak candidate granted) to win office. So now we have lost the governorship, have fewer Republicans in office than ever, and our former governor is now trying to replicate his "successes" nationwide. Personally, I think Mitt would have been better advised to run for re-election again. He's the only one who could have kept the governorship in Republican hands, but apparently ambition can't wait. If he wins the primary, I'll support him in the general. But right now, I'm looking for a candidate with demonstrated electoral success and solid conservative credentials. Mitt just has too much baggage for me.
There is nothing lonelier than being a black Republican in Boston, Massachusetts
Aren't you paid by the Brownback campaign?
"the fact that Romney forced judges to recognize gay marriage in Massachusetts is not helping."
Apparently you like to engage in your own "puffing".
1: Romney has repeatedly and publicly opposed the imposition of gay marriage on Mass. by the Mass. Supreme Court.
2: How did Romney force the judges to do anything? Did he hold a gun to their heads?
Look, there are plenty of legitimate reasons to oppose Romney but your accusaction is simply untrue.

A team led by Cotswold man Lt Col Henry Worsley have reached the South Pole in honour of Sir Earnest Shackleton's team
4:46pm Monday 19th January 2009 in News By Andy Woolfoot
Henry Adams, Henry Worsley and Will Gow are all descended from the crew of Sir Earnest Shackleton's Nimrod expedition
TEARS of joy were shed as a team of amateur polar explorers fulfilled a lifelong dream.
Led by Cotswolds man Lt Col Henry Worsley, who grew up in Hatherop, the three men have spent weeks travelling over 900 miles hauling 300lb sledges and braving temperatures as low as -52°C.
But their reward on Sunday was to finally finish what their ancestors started 100 years ago as they reached the South Pole unaided.
In 1908 Sir Ernest Shackleton's 1908 Nimrod Expedition, cheated death and turned back 97 miles from the South Pole. At the weekend the Matrix Shackleton Centenary Expedition, made up of descendants of the original crew, safely arrived at their destination.
Speaking from the Pole via satellite link Lt Col Worsley, a descendant of Shackleton's skipper Frank Worsley, said: "We're absolutely ecstatic.
"The past 65 days have been physically gruelling and mentally exhausting, but this moment makes it all very, very worthwhile. Ever since I was a child, completing this journey has been my lifetime ambition.
"Completing this journey has been my lifetime ambition."Lt Col Henry Worsley
"To stand here, with Shackleton's own compass, which never made it to this point all those years ago, is a humbling experience."

Number of ratings 24 / Average Grade: N/A Submit a correction
class is entirely lecture and class discussion. 3 Projects at the VERY end of semester. I do have to say though, Barry is a wonderful man to listen to, definitely has a lot of experience in the teaching field and has a lot of good knowledge to share. Definitely take. He's a brilliant speaker and left me thinking after I left class every day.
Finkelman is a very humble professor, probably the best male EDU prof out there. He has a very old school style & is dedicated to seeing great teachers come out the program. You will do a moderate amount of work & while he is brutally honest, he's also only trying to help you improve. Definitely recommend for those who want to be great teachers
What a disaster! I don't need to watch him pick his nose every class, thank you very much. Aside for this distracting detail, Finkleman likes to talk. A lot. And refuses to listen to any of his students' contributions in class. For a class on human relations that tries to encourage better ways of communicating, he fails. Get class out of the way...
he gives a paper, a project, and a final. show up in class, participate a lil and study for the final from the book some point and do study what he says to study cuz its all in the final. he doesnt teach much rather than talk but just go to class and you'll do fine
guys get a's and girls don't. he isn't helpful from an education standpoint. Yes, its good that he only gives one test and a paper.. but you have no idea what you are getting on the final because he barely taught the class.. i had an a until the final that i wasn't prepared for from the class.
Kind of an ass. Don't expect to get anything out the class - just show up, listen to him rant, and go home. Don't raise your hand, because he doesn't want to hear it, and he'll bite your head off. But not a bad guy. Just kind of an ass.
His is a very easy class, but frustrating because you won't get any grades til the last couple weeks of the class. He does like to hear himself talk but it isn't too horrible, the book is only needed to memorize stuff out of for the final, so share with a friend or ten and you'll be better off
Don't buy the textbook!! He never uses it, and you have to get it from Ed's so you can't even sell it back! His class is pointless and boring but an easy A. He doesn't like hearing your opinion though, he will cut you off - very annoying. He's boring.. good luck! easy though, just go to class.
ed relations
easy class. he is a good professor just alittle boring and interupts people alot. but he cares about students and takes time to hear questions. no midterm but group project and a twelve page paper and final.
edu 1011
great teacher, funny man, great personality, sometimes a little boring but overall a great class... not sure about his grading yet
Edu 1011
This class is s common sense class on how to relate with others. If you take good notes and skim the chapters you'll be fine on the final. Only 1 paper and group presentation. Come to class and take notes and you'll be fine.
Human Relations
An approachable man, but his main failing lies in the fact that he offers no real outline for course requirements. I was confused and frustrated the entire semester because I never really knew what I was expected to do. He changed requirements almost every week, and never used the textbook for the class.
No Comments
repeats his lectures over and over..very boring..hardly teaches about edu..gives hardly any work in the beginning of the semester but it the work will hit you towards the end..final extremely hard..you have to memorze the entire book to do well.do not recommend him..he spits so be careful
edu 1011
take him, very easy professor - boring classes and yes he does spit but there are no tests and only 1 paper and a group presentation.. the paper is easy - he just makes it seem hard..sometimes he is interesting..
Edu 1011
basicaly a class on discrimination n racism. His experience is helpful but does not address most of the questions that are on the final. the book is only needed to study for the final. 1 paper due at the end about your heritage. you can write "la dee da" for 6 pages and still get an A on that paper.
He DOES spit. He was interesting, a little intense, loves the sound of his own voice and will stare at you constantly. He interrupted my presentation ten times before I was even finished. He favors men.
Ed 1011
He's great. Fun, easy class. He challenges you, but with a fun atmosphere. You'd have to not show up to fail. He does NOT spit. Give this guy a chance. Might turn out to be your best grade and favorite class.
he is ****! boys get an A girls dont!

If you can see the top of your ceiling joists in the attic, you need to add insulation. Minimum blown insulation is R-30 or about 12" deep.
Solar attic fans run when the sun is shining. In winter, they help reduce moisture in the attic. In summer, they exhaust (pull) the heat out of your attic, which will reduce your energy bill, and protect asphalt shingles. Solar attic fans are installed near the ridge or peak of the roof to vent more heat in summer.
Tubular skylights bring natural, outdoor light into dark interior areas. They can save both on your light bill and your air-conditioning bill, if you presently have warm lights to be able to see in a dark room, such as a bathroom, closet or hallway. You can chose optional features in the skylights such as exhaust fan kits, lights with dimmer kits, or just lights. They come with a lifetime leak free warranty, and can be installed on any roof.

Mr Maynard
An easy and awesome show you two.
hey not to bug ya Edie.. but what does it take to join you on the show?
Your immortal soul! No, I kid, I kid. I have not listened to it yet. For some reason my Itunes did not sync it this morning so I usually listen to the hump update on Thursdays.
You were talking abot Commando 3 this week and I thought you would be interested in this morsel of information.
Those intending to buy this game with the idea of getting into the SF2HD remix will have to wait until the 25th of June. I won't be available to download until then. If you try to download before this date, you will get an error.
Here is a direct link to the Capcom blog.
Hey guys, is there another link I can download the podcast from? My work blocks your libsyn.com link for downloading the MP3.
Oh yeah, another great show Edie and Simon. Also, glad I was able to help alert you to that RSS issues and Itunes not updating.
Thanks, folks, for the awesome feedback! And Dave, thanks for that info. This definitely makes me sad
I planned on playing SFII HD all week, and on my birthday on the 20th.
Someone's going to have to get me a birthday gift to cheer me up now
Great show as always but I wish to chime in over the love-in that the iPhone got.
The iPhone is a classic example of style over function which Apple are renouned for. Their take on the mobile phone falls flat on its face when compared against Nokia's N95.
Nokia's behemouth beats Apple's over hyped pile of junk in every possible way. It has a 5 megapixel camera, iPhone only has a 2 megapixel. It has a built in LED flash and can record video. The iPhone does not and cannot. The N95 has a 3.5mm jack that *any* set of headphones can be plugged into whilst the iPhone requires an adaptor. Add to this the ability to upgrade the memory to 24 Gb, removeable battery, built in GPS and full 3G functionality it is clear that the iPhone is a third rate lump of plastic who's only real use is as a very pretty paper weight.
So the next time you with to prevaricate over the virtues of the iPhone I suggest you Google the following phrase:
iPhone vs N95.
The links it brings up make for some very interesting reading and you will start to eat some humble pie once you have done so.
Oh and before you harp on about the new iPhone Nokia have outmatched it with the N96 which is even more feature packed than the N95.
The lesson here? Don't believe the hype, especially when it comes from Apple!
Travis and anyone having a problem loading Libsyn because of security or some such nonsense:
I have set up a VERY temporary site where I have uploaded the last three entries on the RSS feed (two Humpdates and one GH episode).
I'm doing it for a listener who's on an oil rig in the North Sea and is having the same security problem. Feel free to use this link to hear these last three podcasts:
HOWEVER… THIS IS NOT A PERMANENT FIX! I'll check with Libsyn to find out why so many of you are having security problems with the feed. If we can't fix it, we may have to find a more permanent solution.
thanks for the heads up on this.

Credit Card Numbers Stolen at Gas Pumps
Part of your weekly routine maybe putting your information at risk, criminals are getting credit card numbers at gas pumps.
Thieves open the machines and install a second credit card reader inside, so there's really no way for customers to detect them. KMTV Action 3 News got an up close look at these devices and how they work.
Authorities have confiscated 4 skimming devices they found inside gas pumps at 3 northwest Omaha gas stations, which have not been identified. The skimmers steal your credit card numbers before the transaction is completed. Criminals broke into the machines and could be storing hundreds of credit card numbers.
"Once they get in the case it takes maybe 10 or 15 seconds to connect and disconnect and lock the case back up, so they can do it while they're pumping gas in their vehicle," said John Gutsmiedl, the Resident Agent in Charge for the U.S. Secret Service in Omaha. "The customer will never know it's there. These are much more difficult to spot than the ones that are external and go right over the top."
The U.S. Secret Service says there's no proof yet the card numbers were being used, but they would likely be sold on illegal websites. The Douglas County Sheriff's office says they're getting calls from people who say they've been scammed.
"Now that the public knows that they're vulnerable in this way we've been getting a number of phone calls saying that I've been victimized," said Chief Deputy Marty Bilek with the Douglas County Sheriff's Office.
The U.S. Secret Service and Douglas County Sheriff's Office is following up on leads to find out who may be behind these skimmers. Authorities say the criminals may have installed them while crossing the country because these devices are normally seen in big cities in each coast.
If you're worried about being scammed, authorities say pay for gas inside the convenience store with cash or credit. Also, check your bank and credit card statements frequently, and report suspicious charges immediately because it can help track down skimming devices quicker.

Family's utter devastation after farm death
4:40pm Thursday 21st February 2013 in News
The family of one of two farm workers who died in a fruit packhouse on a Tory peer's estate have spoken of their ''utter devastation'' at his death.
Scott Cain, 23, and Ashley Clarke, 24, were found unconscious on Monday afternoon in the apple store at the Blackmoor Estate in Blackmoor, near Liss, which is owned by Lord Selborne.
Members of staff as well as the emergency services attempted to resuscitate the two men but were unsuccessful.
A spokeswoman for North Hampshire Coroner Andrew Bradley said that the store room used nitrogen to cool the fruit but a cause of death was not yet known.
Post-mortem examinations on the two bodies were inconclusive and the coroner is awaiting the results of toxicology tests to establish a cause of death.
The family of Mr Clarke along with his fiancee, Rachel Higgins, and her family have released a statement through police.
They said: ''Words cannot express the pain we are all feeling at Ashley's passing.
''He was the very heart and soul of both our families and he was so much in love with Rachel that it hurts to see the torment she is going through.
''He had a passion for life and the utter devastation felt by everybody who knew him is testament to his popularity and the impact he had on many of those who knew and loved him.
''We still have many questions which will need to be answered in the fullness of time, but nothing will bring Ashley back or take away the incredible pain we are all feeling.
''We have lost someone special, a son, a brother, fiance and friend who can never be replaced and we will never forget him.
''But for now we need to grieve, supporting each other to help us through what are very difficult times.''
Hampshire police and the Health and Safety Executive have launched a joint investigation into the deaths of Mr Cain, from Liphook, and Mr Clarke, from Liss.

Daily Dispatches From The Global Scene
Is-she-or-isn't-she newlywed Kate Moss has made an image adjustment: She has new bangs! The super-est of them all, who set off a hair craze back in 2007 when she initially cut herself some brow-grazing fringe, returned to the style at the London release party for Bryan Ferry's new album, Olympia—for which her famous face provides the cover art (Moss is a big Roxy Music fan, turns out). After sporting long, face-framing layers earlier this month at the Paris shows, it's certainly a bold change. Is it one that you approve of?

Coach Carroll announced on Tuesday that Russell Wilson will be the starter for Friday's game in Kansas City and the Seahawks had some visitors at VMAC today for a friendly competition.
Anyone kinda disappointed about this?
I really hate facing a rookie QB in the all-important third preseason game for two reasons:
1. If Russell Wilson torches us, it's pretty bad news for our defense.
2. If our defense beats the crap out of a rookie QB, well....he was a rookie. Not that impressive.
I'd rather face a legit NFL starter so we can get a true picture/test for our defense in our most important preseason game.
I suppose, if we just completely shut down Seattle that's a pretty good sign, though. That's what you're supposed to do to rookie QBs.
But I'm still kinda miffed about this news. It's almost a no-win situation. And I figure Russell will just run away from Poe every time. :)
3 preseason games:
Haven't really been tested, and Romeo's not gonna play the starters long against GB.
Me no likey.

Tanner Scheppers's Performance Is Unsustainable
Checking in on our unsigned 2008 second-rounder, so far this season in 25.1 innings he has given up 14 hits, seven walks, four hit batters, and two home runs, to go with sixteen strikeouts. He has been charged with two earned runs for an 0.71 ERA. That, my friends, is a regression candidate.
