46Quotables: Brandi Glanville's Really Mad About That Outfit, LeAnn Rimes
Someone is trying 2 get under my skin by calling MY children "her boys" Sooo transparent!They R MY boys, Eddie Boys and ur step-sons… 4 now.
—Brandi Glanville, via Twitter of course, referencing a couple of Tweets of LeAnn Rimes' that Brandi didn't like. What Tweets, you ask? Well, these Tweets:
Flying out with my boys in a few hrs. Love that it's a family tour weekend. It's always more fun when they are with me.
Oh and this one, too:
Off to Seattle with the 3 cutest boys ever! It was a last minute family trip, the best kind!! #tour
Later, after LeAnn published a bunch of photos of Eddie and Brandi's children building fires in the "family's" rented beachfront home, Brandi Tweeted this:
Taking a break from Twitter to breathe and punch some pillows
(Ahem, that's healthy.) Later Brandi claimed that LeAnn had somehow put her boys in danger while on her family vacation, and let her followers know just how mad she was:
I could give a rats ass about her but she has put both of my boys in danger now and Its time to do something.
Though the initial Tweet about what "danger" Brandi spoke of was deleted, it was still seen by most people (as per normal) on Twitter, and sources are saying that it had something to do with her boys not wearing a helmet when engaging in a physical activity that required one, and nothing at all to do with LeAnn's crazy-crappy traveling outfit from yesterday.
And you think you have a dysfunctional family, guys? Imagine what it's like for these two poor boys that have to grow up around both Brandi Glanville and LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian. That should put things in perspective for you.

You forgot about all the "happy family" photos that Leann posted of Eddie and the boys on the website that she makes her fans pay for. And how Leann tweeted "I love you" to that woman from XFactor who had been sending harassing tweets to Brandi. And how Leann has been tweeting passive aggressive quotes from those stepmother blogs. And how Leann attempted to create a gang of TwitterStepMoms. And how Leann was complaining to those very same stepmothers because the kids spent a week with their mother for the holiday.
Brandi's frustration and anger are understandable. What can she do when she is up against someone like Leann (who won't take no for an answer and has a lawyer who makes other lawyers afraid to even cross him) and Eddie(who allows Leann to do what she wants with the kids because Leann has hooked him up with jobs from Tyler Perry and money)? Brandi probably feels powerless. At times it also sounds like Brandi's lawyers are too sacred of Leann's lawyer to even address the issue of what Leann is posting about the boys to twitter and that website.
Leann posted the video of the boy after RHOBH aired on Monday. Leann always pulls stunts like this. It's her way of getting back at Brandi.
Where anywhere in this article does it suggest that she was mad about the outfit?
I think it was sarcasm.
Leann posted another photo of Brandi's child(the one she made the video of), this time walking on a beach with his father. Rather than do the right thing and stop posting the photos of the kids, Leann posts even more photos of the kids to show Brandi and the media that SHE(not Brandi) has the ultimate say so when it comes to Brandi's kids.
I'm just curious, what exactly can Brandi do when Leann is flat out bragging about how she can do whatever she wants because no lawyer(including Brandi's) is going to ever challenge her lawyer?
How can Brandi shut her down? Well, first she has to evict the 16 year old whine bag that is living inside her head. That's going to be hard. The second thing is to dump Twitter like it was a radioactive turd and never tweet again. The third thing she should do when she has concerns for her kids is to call their father's cell and tell him upfront that she wishes him to take better safety precautions or whatever. The fourth thing she should do is the cruelest and most effective thing possible…completely ignore LeAnne like she's dead.
There are several problems with your logic.
Whine bag? Those are Brandi's kids. Leann has been taunting Brandi for 3 years now, so Brandi has every right to express herself. The first step is to stop blaming Leann's victims for daring to speak up about what Leann is doing to them. Why do people seem to think that silencing Brandi or whoever Leann is bullying at the moment will solve the problem?
Brandi has been ignoring Leann. Leann has been taunting Brandi for weeks, this didn't start on Friday like several sites are claiming. It's been going on since Leann left "rehab". As usual, the media left out this huge chunk of the story. The more Brandi ignored Leann, the more Leann tweeted and posted photos of the kids and encouraged her fans to taunt Brandi. Leann's behavior got worse on Friday and Saturday. After Brandi called her out yesterday, Leann stopped tweeting and posting photos of the kids. But after Leann saw several media outlets blaming Brandi for daring to speak up about what Leann is doing to her, Leann is back to taunting again and posting photos of the kids. How long is Brandi supposed to ignore Leann?
Brandi has been upfront with Eddie several times about how she didn't want Leann to tweet, blog, and post photos of her kids or set up staged photo-ops with her kids. If talking to Eddie was an option that Brandi could pursue, don't you think that Leann's tweets and photos would have stopped by now? The fact of the matter is that talking to Eddie is useless. He allows Leann to tweet and post photos because he likes the gifts Leann gives him for it. Leann has arranged for Eddie to work on Tyler Perry's new movie and on one of Tyler Perry's sitcoms, so do you really think Eddie is about to tell Leann to stop the nonsense? Why do you think that Leann posted the photo of Eddie with his son today?
The point is that this won't be resolved until someone is brave enough to stand up to Leann and her lawyer. This isn't going to go away by ignoring Leann. Perhaps if the media had called Leann out when she was whining about the kids spending the holiday with their mother, things would be different.
Blasted1… Dude, don't prod it, don't poke it, just let it be…kinda like roadkill. Arguing with guest is an exercise in futility
See, Leann acknowlegdes that talking to Eddie privately isn't an option for Brandi because Eddie is going to always side with Leann in matters concerning his kids because Leann's MONEY and ability to get him jobs rules:
"the only thing he needs to do us private not publicly. He always is behind me"-Leann Rimes
Eddie must really hate his ex. There's no other explanation for why Leann is allowed to be so outrageous.
Just when you think that Leann can't possibly stoop any lower…Leann just posted about 30 photos of her and Eddie on the beach with the kids to her fan website(See, Eddie can't possibly be tired of Leann like ROL said because they are on a beach writing Cibrian in the sand and hugging their bonus mommy as they smile big for the camera-did Leann take that Joe guy or Sara H woman with them?). But no one should even be surprised by the fact that Leann is still in taunt mode and posting more "happy family" photos. US Weekly, Eonline, ROL, and Huff Po told Leann that her actions were okay when they wrote articles depicting Brandi as the bad guy for going public about what Leann did this weekend. After the bad day that Leann had today, I really thought that she would tone down the tweets and photos of the kids. But I guess those articles slamming Brandi really helped to revive Leann! Geat job US Weekly, Huff Po, Eonline, and ROL!
though i empathize with mama brandi, why must she vent on twitter? it is pathetic. leann still sucks the most in this scenario, but please, both y'all ladies, let go of the twitter & vent to friends face-to-face and/or a therapist. preferably a therapist.
Says the person who told CAS to post a photo of a dirty tampon. Doesn't Leann have a fan who is obsessed with tampons? It's only an exercise in futility for you because you lack common sense. Obviously I hit the nail on the head with that post because if what I said in that post wasn't valid or didn't ring true, you wouldn't have taken the time and energy to make such a response. You do understand that your post also defeats your purpose, right?
What the hell are you talking about?! I have never had any such conversation in my life, and I am completely sick of your insane bullying.
Get some help.
That's it Sarah, I can't with this one anymore.
I'm sorry Cas…I started this one, ya think I'd take my own advise!!! It's just so damn funny when guest starts rambling…. Guest seems to have little ouble-tray when she gets her ussy-pay in a wad!!!
Advice…. Damn autocorrect
Evilbeet Gossip: Come for the boobs, stay for the crazy!! Well, and Sarahs wit of course!
Do you have a memory problem or are you just lying to save face? In the "Ugh, LeAnn Rimes Adopted A Dog" thread(November 9, 2012), please see the post that you made on November 9, 2012 at 5:24 pm.
CAS "disappeared", and then this CHAZ person popped up to pick up where CAS left off.
This is the comment that CHAZ made in response to the post that CAS made at 5:24 pm: Chaz says: November 9, 2012 at 6:45 pm Cas, thats hilarious!! After seeing the response from "guest" I wish you had found an image of a used tampon or something!!)
CHAZ made a comment about thorazine. At the time I thought he knew all about throrazine because he was taking it, but someone told me that you made a post on another site telling other people that they were acting like your mother who has schizophrenia. Thorazine is also used to treat schizophrenia. It's funny that CHAZ would bring up something like this when you too have a history of doing this on other site.
Someone else showed up the next day and said that they thought that CHAZ/CAS were Leann's fans and then this CHAZ person went quiet and stopped posting in that thread(or probably just went to another thread/blog to continue to vent about what happened in that thread).
If Eddie could get his dick hard forLeann and get her pregnant she wouldn't give a rats ass for those two boys. Brandi, baby, send them some champagne, oysters, caviar and chocolate and help them make Cibrian # 3 and your problems will be over.
@CranApple Snapple
There you go playing the victim again. It's you who is doing the insane bullying because you can't handle what people are saying about Leann. One minute you are trashing Leann, but the moment someone says something that you don't like about Leann you go crazy. You know exactly what I am talking about. In the thread about Leann's new dog I posted that Leann named the dog after Eddie's co-star Jane Leeves. You then came back to that thread and posted photos of a "nutbar". I commented how silly that made you look. Then from no where this CHAZ person showed up and asked you to post a photo of a dirty tampon. I then told CHAZ that he had no reason to talk about anyone and applied your nutbar photo to him. The posts are still there, so you can't insist that this never happened. Seriously you can deny it all you want, but all I have to do is go to those thread and repost exactly what CHAZ/CAS posted.
What's bizarre is this CAS/CHAZ person. CAS can't because she/he knows that she/he is wrong. Or does CAS do this so often that she/he forget what does? I love how this person denies that things never ever happen, when it's all in plain site for all to see.
Seriously the person who asked CAS to post photos of a dirty tampon is going to call someone crazy?
Of course you started it, you were upset about the negative article that one blogger posted about Leann. Since you only post on this site, you just had to come here to vent, right? It's just so damn funny when CAS/CHAZ starts rambling….and making posts acting like the victim. CAS/CHAZ seems to have little ouble-tray when he/she sees these negative articles about Leann. Why? Does it seem bizarre to everyone how this CAS/CHAZ person comes out of hiding when Leann is getting the maximum amount of backlash?
So does CAS/CHAZ work for this site? But you can agree that both CAS and CHAZ are not as innocent as they make themselves out to be. That CAS person is always attacking people on other sites and this site, so it's really odd how she then sits here and whines about being bullied or denies that she didn't do what is well documented.
Wow…. Ok guest, I'm going to reply one last time…. I do, however, know that you will respond because you are the type who has to have the last word. I responded originally because of the virulent, twatty way you responded to Cas…. & I ask you, whats twattier than a used rag? Btw, I've never met Sarah or Cas…especially since one lives across the international date line.. I have no reason to lie, I admit everything I said… This is the only gossip site I post on, people like you who are so thoroughly obsessed about a has been country singer creep me the fuck out. Lastly, I'm tired of your dementia…. Do us all a favor, curl up in a ball, like you're trying to smell a fart, and roll your demented ass down whatever hole you creeped out of…..
LOOOOOOL i'm picturing guest trying to sniff its bum right now… gross. *high*five!*
Thanks baby….. High five backatcha!!
Says the poster who is obsessed with dirty tampons and farts! People like you who are so thoroughly obsessed about people who don't like a has been country singer creep me the fuck out. I'm tired of your dementia….and victim playing. Do us all a favor, curl up in a ball, like you're trying to smell a fart, and roll your demented ass down whatever hole you creeped out of…..did you see another negative article about Leann?
It's not about having the last word, it's about the bizarre behavior that YOU display when people say things about Leann that you don't like or how you resort to playing the victim when you get called out for your behavior. If you don't like being called out for your obsession with dirty tampons then perhaps you shouldn't have made the post in the first place.
You are you just flat out rewriting history to make it look like CAS/CHAZ is the victim. I didn't respond to CAS in a virulent or twatty way. I made comment about the dog's name, CAS didn't like what I said, and she went nuts indirectly name calling by posting the photo of a nutbar. I was valid in questioning why CAS would go down that road when she made such a big fuss about being bullied 2 weeks prior to making that comment.
Your initial post wasn't to me, it was to CAS. This is what you actually said:
"Chaz says: November 9, 2012 at 6:45 pm
Cas, thats hilarious!! After seeing the response from "guest" I wish you had found an image of a used tampon or something!!)"
You never met Sarah or CAS? This is what I mean. Why do you lie when the evidence suggests otherwise? In one post it says that she has personal histories with both you and CAS. And in another it says that you and CAS have been in e-commuications with her for quite some time.
Bored now…… Can't you come up with any comebacks of your own, why do you always rehash other peoples comments? You've failed miserably, online as well as in life!
Says the person who wants to see photos of dirty tampons!
So now you are upset because someone applied your line of logic to you? People rehash your comments because you are guilty of the very same thing you are trying to lecture others on. If I failed miserably you wouldn't still be here making posts, rewriting history, or writing posts about farts.
Wait, I thought you said that you were going to reply one last time? Why are you highfiving, when you just got caught in 2 more lies? I know that you read Sarah's posts because you sent her a high five!
Ok….. I will respond, your reading comprehension suckdiddlyucks!
According the post that you made at 7:21 pm it's your reading comprehension that suckdiddlyucks: "Wow…. Ok guest, I'm going to reply one last time…."
You said one last time. Don't get mad at me because you do one thing and then say another.
I asked if she had met you IN PERSON. Your response was that you NEVER met either one of them. It's not about reading comprehension. Instead of calling me names, perhaps you should pay more closely to what you are saying!
I concede… Like Vizzini, you truly have a dizzying intellect
@pikki nikki polka pants
Based on the comments that CHAZ is making tonight, he has been sniffing his bum one too many times! I love how he says that he has NEVER met Sarah when there are two posts that directly says otherwise!
stop obsessing.
Perhaps you and CHAZ to do the same!
Says the person who on Nov 9 asked someone to post a photo of a dirty tampon! Yes we know that you have a dizzying intellect! That was very evident when you resorted to name calling, rewrote history depicting yourself as the victim, posted about farts, and couldn't figure out why your own words were applied to him. Of course you concede(just like you were going to post one last time)…so how many more posts can I expect from you today?
What the fuck just happened here ? Can't we all just agree the Leann sucks ?
that. what the f@que did I just walk into?
Exactly. Not sure how this devolved into tampons and farts, but back to the article, I'm Team Brandi all the way. Leann does suck and seems like a passive-aggressive, anorexic bitch.
At the risk of making a sane point (which half of the commenters are also doing), I think that the behavior of both of these ladies is unhealthy. Being pointlessly contrary does not help the boys, and neither does being extremely and publicly hostile.
In both cases, the fight becomes about hostilities and not about what is best for the children. Not healthy.

Young and old shared smiles together as Christmas came early for some military families and their children.
Operation Homefront is an organization that provides support to military families. They teamed up with staff and residents of the four Belmont senior living centers around Chicago to buy gifts for military children. Many of them said thanks without ever saying a word.
Isabel Alvarez, 3, was beaming with joy after picking out her stroller and stuffed animal gifts, which she proceeded to show off to all the Belmont Village residents.
Air Force veteran Bruce Clark smiled and shared the moment.
"I was thinking how good she feels and how great it is that we were able to give her something that she really liked and didn't have," Clark said.
Dozens of children with fathers in the Navy, Marines or Army got to choose several presents from a pile of 400 donated gifts.
It was hard to choose for some, but these kids weren't hard to please.
"Sometimes there a lot of things during Christmas that you want to get, that you don't actually know what they want, this gives them a little opportunity to do some freehand dig to get some of those great things that they want, so it's great," says William Simmons, a father and US Navy veteran
82-year-old Helen Stieg, a Navy veteran and Belmont resident helped buy some of the gifts. She loved watching the kid's faces.
"They are so precious, they're priceless, and love is what they need," Stieg said.
Steve McMichaels, one of the '85 Super Bowl Bears was on hand to spread the cheer. On this day, there was a lot being shared.
"Just really really grateful, really really thankful for the support that we have felt from the community," says Operation Homefront volunteer Linda Alvarez.
Any of the presents
that were not claimed will be donated to the U.S. Marines in Chicago, who have their own toys for tots
drive every year.
Police are investigating the murder of a homeless man who was beaten to death in an alley in Logan Square.

Ten Years Without Jeff
Triumph Over Evil
As more time passed I sometimes wondered if the parents of my kids' friends assume I'm divorced. I'm clearly raising my daughters alone and there's no wedding ring on my left hand (I wear it on my right hand but it's easy to overlook). Still, I was taken aback when another mom recently asked me how long I'd been divorced. Oddly enough, she was the first person to put that question to me outright.
"I'm not divorced," I told her. "Jeff was killed in the World Trade Center."
Wham! She doubled over, fighting tears. "Oh, no, Ellen, I am so sorry." I started to cry, too, and we hugged each other for a moment. She asked, "How have you managed?" to which I could only muster a weak smile. As she wiped away her tears she repeated, "I am so very sorry."
"It's okay," I reassured her, "you didn't know, and I wasn't sure how to tell you. It's okay."
After she left I put my head down on the dining-room table and sobbed. It's not okay at all.
My girls have had their own challenges. Occasionally they have been teased by other children who don't realize that a father's death is not the same as a pet's death, or that knocking down wooden block buildings and yelling "Look, the Twin Towers!" over and over again isn't funny to an 8-year-old whose father died in those buildings. "Walk away, honey," I advised Charlotte when she was in second grade. "They don't get it. They just don't under�stand about death."
Last fall Maggie and Charlotte switched schools; once again they were "the new kids." I told the new principal and their teachers about Jeff and on September 11 the girls brought in a few items to share with their homerooms: a piece of steel from the World Trade Center, the book of "portraits of grief" published by The New York Times and a few photographs of their father. Later Charlotte told me, "I slumped down in my chair trying to hide, but I knew I couldn't. Everybody in class was watching me." But the other kids listened to what she said, so she felt better afterward. The sixth graders in Maggie's class, who knew more about September 11 than Charlotte's classmates, listened to her respectfully, too. Still, after school, both girls told me they were relieved the day was over.
From time to time I imagine what it would be like to get married again. Last winter Maggie, Charlotte and I went to a get-together at an indoor water park sponsored by Tuesday's Children, an organization dedicated to helping 9/11 family members. I like these outings: My daughters can play with the children while I compare notes with the moms, women with whom I share an unshakable bond.
That weekend I reconnected with some women I'd met a few years ago and was astonished at how many of them have remarried. I kept wondering, How did they find time to date? Several told me they could never have gotten their new love affairs off the ground without their mothers' help. Hearing this, of course, was another knife to my heart. I miss my mom and dad almost as much as I miss Jeff.
I thought about these women all the way home. I could see how happy they were. I've gone on a few half-hearted dates in the last few years, but I haven't fallen in love again. Perhaps I'm denying myself, but I've had a lot to do over the past decade. In addition to grappling with the loss of my husband and parents, I've moved twice and have had to single-handedly raise two young daughters to become thoughtful, caring and intelligent people.
Right after Jeff died I was advised by a dear friend, a man who'd lived through a tragedy of his own, to figure out who I was going to be and how I would get there now that the train I was on had been derailed. I had to start anew, he said, and I had to do it myself. I couldn't allow the tragedy to turn me bitter, because Jeff hadn't married a bitter person.
It has taken me a while to get back to being the independent woman I was �before Jeff was killed. A year and a half ago I resumed my career as an academic, joining the classics and human�ities department of a nearby state university, where I teach Greek mythology to undergraduates. It's my second career, one I'd begun two years before 9/11 and was forced to abandon. Becoming a professor is probably the biggest step I've taken solely for me.
On that Sunday night last spring, as I struggled to absorb the president's words, I found nothing to celebrate. But I did feel a renewed determination to triumph in the face of evil. In the morning I woke Maggie and Charlotte with the news that bin Laden was dead. Like me, they were glad he had finally been caught but by breakfast felt sad and tearful, missing their dad all over again. We watched the president's speech as we ate, and then the girls went to school. I spent the morning grading papers and thinking about Jeff, my forever-36-year-old husband, who wouldn't be coming home for dinner.

Kappa Sigma hosted it 5th annual "Sleep Out For The Soldiers" event. It's a signature community service the fraternity holds to raise money for the Fisher House Foundation. 58 members of the Vermont chapter started the sleep out on Friday at 3 in the afternoon -- and continued until 6 this evening. Fraternity brothers say although the reputation of fraternities isn't always positive, the goal of Kappa Sigma is to do good work and donate as much money as they can.
Kyle DeVivo from the Kappa Sigma Fraternity said Saturday, "Fraternities kind of have a stigma around them about us standing out and partying and that we don't contribute much. But we're a chapter that's raised over 40 thousand dollars for charity and done over 2 thousand hours of community service in the past two years. For us it's something we're really proud to come out here and do and that we're more than that."
This year's event raised about 10 thousand dollars.

If I am still alive in 2016, I would like the chance to vote for a woman for president unless that woman is Hillary. Hillary has many strong political points, but I think she as a person has much that would bring shame to the office. Yes, many men who held the office have as well. But Hillary is attached to Bill and who wants that again?
This is an appeal to all women and all moderates out there: Find a woman to rally around. Republican or Democrat, just not Hillary. She truly is not deserving and I hate to think of all the political ads you, me and all the children would be subjected to. The middle class needs a president, man or woman, to rally around.

India burnt its fingers badly in the aborted Indian Peace Keeping Force mission (1987 to 1990). And after the assassination of former prime minister Rajiv Gandhi by the LTTE on May 21,1991, India has refused to officially mediate in the dispute, despite being urged by both the LTTE and the government in Colombo to do so.
To wholeheartedly support Colombo's crackdown on the Tamil LTTE would spark resentment in Tamil Nadu.
To talk to the LTTE would mean giving legitimacy to a outfit which New Delhi (and the United States) has banned as a terrorist outfit. Last week, the European Union agreed 'in principle' to list the Tigers as a terrorist outfit too, despite warnings that this could jeopardise the already-fragile peace process.

And put it (yeah, yeah y'all)

On me (I'ma put it on ya girl)

Slouching Towards Washington?
by Strummerson, Sun Dec 28, 2008 at 09:41:11 AM EST
"And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Washington to be born?"
As we look forward to the inauguration of the first Democratic President of this century, we face numerous domestic crises recalling some of the starkest circumstances in our country's history, two wars, and various other international military and economic conflicts. I look to MyDD as a forum to discuss the policy initiatives of the incoming administration. That is not what I have encountered, for the most part in the past two weeks.
Instead, we have regular hit pieces. Some are as "fair and balanced" as the news service they resemble and as intellectually honest as the talk radio personality they emulate. One series is posted under the disingenuous heading of "Politics and Media Headlines" and has had at least one edition singled out for diary rescue. Of course, we should tolerate a wide range of viewpoints. But these come from someone who claims knowledge of what Obama is "really like," and challenges us to find a different and truly progressive candidate for 2012 weeks before Obama's inauguration. He hasn't taken office and he's been disqualified. Others are posting diaries that equate support for Obama, no matter how critical, nuanced, and qualified as both endorsement of patriarchy and encouragement of rape.
In addition, we have a small cadre of users who want only to cast aspersions on the president-elect through smears and rumors that lack any substantiation and accuse anyone who argues with them of being dupes, thugs, or mesmerized minions. I have encountered anti-Semitic and homophobic slurs, personal attacks on users' families, and the same anti-intellectualism that has been the currency of conservatives and republicans (which they have been spending to great and detrimental effect on our political culture and system for the past decades), and good will twisted into animosity. I have encountered other users with whom I have had highly productive interchanges, in the context of both agreements and disagreements, abandoning civility and engaging in the same destructive dynamics, though generally without employing the most pernicious of these slurs. The worst aspects of the primaries have returned like a recurring nightmare that haunts and fatigues us, and ultimately distracts from engaging reality in a productive manner.
My question here is how do we maintain this forum as a productive one? How should we respond and/or avoid the dynamics that impede diverse and considerate exchange of perspectives and information? How do we avoid a situation in which, to quote W.B. Yeats once more: "The best lack all conviction, while the worst/Are full of passionate intensity."

I believe many Braves fans found it surprising that Brandon Beachy beat out Mike Minor for this season's 5th starter spot in the Atlanta rotation, but both have seen considerable action this season anyway.
In the interest of comparing the two's situations, there are a lot of things to consider. However, I'm not going to attempt to find which is better or worse. They will both be Braves for a long time, barring a trade.
First, their major league performance thus far.
Brandon Beachy has started 23 games, earning himself a 3.31 FIP (87 FIP-) during his tenure with the big-league ballclub. He's struck out 9.95 batters per nine (26.5 K%) while walking 2.71 per nine (7.2 BB%). Batters have a .298 BABIP, fairly run-of-the-mill. Meanwhile, Minor has a sterling 3.01 FIP (78 FIP-), striking out 8.88 per nine IP (22.1 K%) while walking 2.80 BB/9 (7.0 BB%). Minor's opposing BABIP is .357, which suggests he's been a bit unlucky on balls in play and accounts for some of the differences in ERA.
Based upon these past performances, Beachy projects a 3.30 xFIP (85 FIP-), a 3.60 tERA and 3.01 SIERRA. Minor projects a 3.49 xFIP (89 xFIP-) with a 3.79 tERA and 3.46 SIERRA. So, while Minor's actual performance has earned him a better FIP, he does not project quite so well as Beachy, probably because of his low HR/FB that does not project in xFIP as well a 24.7% LD rate that isn't well-liked by tERA and SIERRA.
The final consideration to be made, as with all young players, is service time. A full season is considered 172 days, but partial seasons still count. This actually plays out fairly big in the comparison.
Although Beachy had just 14 days of service time before 2011, he's been with the big-league club all year (or on the DL, which counts against service time). So, unless he's miraculously sent down to finish the year, he's going to be at 1 year, 14 days going into 2012. As such, he projects as a free agent after the 2016 season. This assumes, of course, that he's not demoted for any length of time, as his minuscule 14 days of extra service time could easily be swallowed up by such a move.
Minor entered the year with 58 days of service time, but actually projects to have less than a full season by year's end. According to my calculations, he should end up with no more than 163 days of service even if he stays with the Atlanta squad for the rest of this year. As such, if he never sees the minor leagues again, he will be a free agent after 2017, one year later than Beachy. That said, he's almost a lock for Super 2 status (if it is kept in the CBA, which is not certain), which means both will hit arbitration in the same offseason.
Both players' eligibility for the ROY award will end after this season. I don't think either figure to be significant candidates for the award, though Beachy could potentially jump into the spotlight with an incredibly impressive September. Right now, he's a darkhorse candidate at best.
So, when comparing the two, here are my conclusions:
1) Both are really good, with every single advanced metric coming in below 4.00. That's pretty astounding and bodes incredibly well for both of their futures.
2) The Braves will likely get an extra year of Minor, but at a cost. However, baseball has become a game of team control as much as on-field performance. The majority of the teams in the league don't have two players that meet the level of performance described in my first conclusion, let alone the amount of service time remaining with each. This is a huge advantage for the Braves.
So, sit back, relax and enjoy both of these guys, as they project to put up 3-4 fWAR per season well into the future.

State Farm Go to Bat Challenge
If you're looking to kill time before the Home-Run Derby, here's how you can do so, raise money for charity and maybe score a pair of 2012 World Series tickets. By hitting home runs in the Go to Bat online game, you are entered to win a pair of World Series tix and your chosen charity has a chance to receive an $18,000 donation from State Farm. With the Dodgers' lead crumbling, perhaps the allure of a World Series isn't as irrational as it seemed about 7pm on Friday night! [And amusingly, the PR guy who sent the email added a PS, "I voted for Aaron Hill. He got screwed"] See what kind of high-score you can get.

It's a shame that who we are is oftentimes equated exclusively with what we do. And while I do believe that there's a strong correlation between the two, one does not necessarily determine the other. Having said this, here are some of the areas that constitute my life (listed not in order of importance but in the order of your potential curiosity):
I am an alumni of Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where I earned my Master of Science in Information Technology. I focused my studies on the areas of information retrieval, database management, data mining, and management science. The website for this program can be found here. I certainly recommend this program for any individual interested not only in technology per se, but in the management and social networking applications of technology.
I work as a Data Systems Architect with Millennium Pharmacy Systems, whose mission is to provide "The Right Drug, for the Right Patient, at the Right Time, for the Right Price." Please see the company websites for more information. In the past I've also worked as the Director of Business Intelligence with SnapRetail, a Senior Research Associate with the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, a Mac Specialist with Apple, Inc., a Database Analyst with Communifx, and a freelance web designer. Please see my resume for a more complete description of my professional experience, or contact me on LinkedIn. Recently I've been working with Business Intelligence applications, data warehousing and database development/administration.
I also enjoy teaching, and am extremely lucky to be involved with The Saxifrage School where I'm co-teaching the Winter 2013 Web Programming 101 course. This is my second time having instructed this course.
Mostly, I'm all over the place. I enjoy math, logic, technology, backgammon, biking, traveling, Ireland, sleeping, reading, drinking Lindemans Framboise and Guinness, and so forth. If you have any questions about any of the particulars of my life, feel free to contact me.

BRADENTON, Fla. -- Joe Beimel has a total of three at-bats since 2006, and he hasn't laid down a sacrifice bunt since his last tour with the Pirates in 2002.
Yet, somehow, on Thursday, Beimel unofficially became the best bunting pitcher on the club. Beimel won the team's bunt contest, besting five others in the finals of an ongoing Spring Training competition. Kevin Correia was the leader before Beimel won it in a second-round "walk-off."
"I've had some good bunt instructors over the years," said Beimel, who doesn't consider himself the world's best at laying one down.
The entire team gathered on the infield grass and was genuinely into the competition, hooting and howling in support. Joel Hanrahan ran up to the plate and gave Beimel a chest bump after he won.
"Just gets everybody focused," manager Clint Hurdle said. "Everybody's got a shot, everybody's got a chance. ... You can hear the cheers and the oh's and the ooh's and the aahs."
Points are given out for each bunt that lands in a designated area, painted on the ground right in front of the plate. Keeping the ball within three small circles brings the most points.
There was, of course, a purpose to the drill beyond simple fun. Bunting has long been a lost art, and the Pirates were 11th out of 16 National League teams in sacrifice hits last season.
"You got to have pitchers who can handle the bat," Hurdle said. "It was a soft spot identified to me early in the interview process. They've heightened the awareness of it throughout the Minor League system already, and they'll continue to do so. It's just something you need to know how to do."
Olsen throws, Meek limited in workout
BRADENTON, Fla. -- Pirates left-hander Scott Olsen threw all fastballs in a 25-pitch bullpen session Thursday morning, and the southpaw said it went well.
Olsen felt tightness in his left hamstring one week ago. Pitching coach Ray Searage also said that Olsen did well in the early session, but that he was naturally a little rusty. Olsen said trainers still have him on a program and that he felt strong in his workout.
In other pitching news, the Pirates announced Thursday that right-hander Evan Meek has been limited the past two days because of minor tightness in his right calf.

Kevin Correia, Ross Ohlendorf, Joel Hanrahan, Joe Beimel and Jose Veras threw bullpen sessions Thursday. ... Pedro Alvarez belted a home run in batting pratice off a palm tree in right field, and he hit nearly every other offering he swung at that round to at least the warning track. ... Still finding the best dynamic for himself and his coaches, Pirates manager Clint Hurdle said Thursday that he will leave most of the hands-on work with pitchers to their coach, Ray Searage. "The area that I do get involved in with pitchers is probably giving them an offensive viewpoint," Hurdle said. "Being a hitting coach guy before, most of our [pitchers] I've had to put a plan together on facing them." ... Hurdle also said Nick Leyva is an excellent fit to coach at third. "He's very good with the infielders, he's very good with baserunning. ... In doing the dynamic of who do you want in the dugout with you, I just know once the game starts that the coaches on the bases are very valuable."

The cost-effective loyalty program
Five steps to designing a program that generates cash
As a retailer or consumer business that runs a loyalty program, generating cash may not be your prime objective. Other objectives may include enhancing customer loyalty, building your brand or capturing detailed customer data. But loyalty programs can be expensive to maintain, particularly if you offer hard discounts.
To keep costs in line, especially in today's budget-conscious environment, you need to identify ways to reduce the costs of your program without diminishing its value. Here are five steps for designing a cost-effective loyalty program:
- Know what you want
To understand your program's effectiveness, you need to measure its performance. Start by defining your objectives and success measures. "Are you trying to attract new customers? Gain a greater share of wallet from existing customers?" asks Richard Carson, national leader of Deloitte's Customer practice. Or are you aiming to drive more frequent store visits or higher spends? All of these objectives suggest a different program design and different measures of success.
- Know what your customers want
Different customers have different motives. Some may want discounts or price savings, but others may be seeking better service, convenience or early notification of new products. By understanding these divergent customer needs, you can tailor your program to better meet them. You may even lower costs by avoiding discounts that may not drive response.
- Define your segments
Understanding your customers' motivations also allows you to segment your customer base. "Customer segmentation lets you target people with specific messages and offer products that resonate with them. You can also use soft rewards — rather than discounts — that align with their purchase patterns," says Chris Robertson, Manager in Deloitte's Consumer Business practice.
- Test, test and retest
Some of the retailing world's best loyalty programs took years of testing to achieve their stellar results. To make your program more profitable, experiment with some of the following strategies:
- Make it compelling to spend. Don't just tell your customers how many points they've earned; entice them by explaining what their points can buy.
- Encourage specific types of buying behaviour by running special promotions, encouraging redemption of high-margin products or awarding higher points for buying bundled services or private-label products.
- Partner with other vendors or retailers to help fund the costs of the program.
- Sell extra points to customers who want to top up their existing points to access a reward more quickly.
- Forget about mass advertising. Target your marketing at specific customer segments.
- Monitor the points liability on your balance sheets to keep it within a specified range. If the liability is too high, encourage redemption with special promotions. If it's too low, offer more aspirational rewards that encourage customers to save their points rather than redeeming right away.
- Analyze, refine and add value
Over time, analyze the data you collect to ensure the program meets your customers' evolving needs. Changing markets and shifting consumer tastes may make a once-vibrant program stagnant. By tweaking your program's reward structure, conducting better financial modelling or closing process gaps, you may be able to revive a struggling loyalty program rather than cancelling it outright.
If you're a retailer planning to launch a new program, you're in a great position to design a world-class loyalty program from the outset. You can base your design on best practices — such as using customer segmentation to focus on your most profitable customers, leveraging purchasing efficiencies, encouraging redemption of higher-margin items, taking tax implications into account and managing liabilities more effectively. And you'll be well on your way to designing a program that delivers value to both you and your customers.

At some point, stuff like this has to backfire, right? radio.foxnews.com/toddstarnes/to… I mean, when is it too much?—
RB (@RBPundit) November 26, 2012
Earlier today, Twitchy told you about actor Jamie Foxx's cultish, outrageous remarks about President Obama being "our Lord and Savior." Now, Fox News' Todd Starnes reports that a painting depicting Obama as a crucified Jesus Christ is on display at Bunker Hill Community College in Boston. According to Starnes, the painting was originally supposed to be displayed nearly four years ago at an event in New York City, but the event was canceled due to public outcry.
[Artist Michael D'Antuono] dismissed critics who called the display blasphemous.
"The crucifixion of the president was meant metaphorically," he told Fox News. "My intent was not to compare him to Jesus."
Is that so?
D'Antuono blamed the controversy on conservative media "trying to promote the idea that liberals believe the president to literally be our savior."
D'Antuono can play the blame game all he wants. But one look at the painting, called "Truth," is enough to show that the criticisms he's faced are more than well-deserved:

Mike Groll / AP
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo says the pension reforms passed by state lawmakers will save more than $80 billion over the next 30 years.
The pension cuts that public workers in New York will face are just the latest in a litany of retirement benefit reductions instituted by financially strapped states across the country, even as the economy flickers back to life.
A report released this week by the National Conference of State Legislatures says 43 states reduced retirement benefits for broad categories of public employees and teachers from 2009 through 2011. The changes to public pension plans, once considered a sacred cow immune from the chopping block, include increasing employee contributions, boosting age or service requirements for retirement, or both.
"What it says is that policy makers have found existing public employee plans to be too expensive for them to afford in the future, so they're essentially shifting more of the cost to employees in a number of ways," Ron Snell, a director with the National Conference of State Legislatures in Denver, told msnbc.com.
The New York Legislature early Thursday approved a pension overhaul proposal backed by Gov. Andrew Cuomo that reduces retiree benefits for future state and local government workers, increases employee contribution rates and boosts the retirement age for most new workers by one year to 63.
Cuomo said the reforms will save more than $80 billion over the next 30 years.
"For years, local governments have struggled to cope with soaring retirement costs, driving up taxes on New York families and small businesses," Cuomo said in a statement Thursday. "Without this critical reform, New Yorkers would have seen significant tax increases, as well as layoffs to teachers, firefighters and police."
New York lawmakers pass sweeping pension cuts
The AFL-CIO, the largest U.S. labor group, blasted the plan as harmful to employees.
"Instead of cutting pensions for workers, we should focus on ensuring that corporations and the wealthiest New Yorkers are paying their fair share of taxes," the labor group said in a statement this week.
New York's $140.3 billion fund is the third-largest U.S. public pension plan, and one of the best-performing. It had 101.5 percent of the money to pay its obligations in 2010, according to an annual study by Bloomberg Rankings.
So if New York can't afford to maintain its current level of retiree benefits, can any state?
The California Public Employees' Retirement System, the nation's largest public pension fund, this week lowered its forecast for investment returns and asked the state of California, school districts and local governments to increase contributions — a move that could siphon more money from basic services.
CalPERS' $233 billion fund, which serves 1.6 million California government workers, retirees and their families, has an unfunded liability of at least $85 billion, according to The Associated Press.
Across the nation, Snell says, states are trying to play catch-up with a reservoir of unfunded liabilities caused by two severe recessions since 2000. The economic downturns wreaked havoc on the value of stocks and other assets held by pension funds. Couple that with an increasingly aging workforce that's nearing retirement and you have a recipe for pension pitfalls.
"The big issue is not so much pensions going forward as it is large unfunded liabilities that are legacies of the past," Snell says. "Reducing pensions costs going forward puts states in more favorable position to address those problems, but doesn't resolve them."

NEW YORK A number of major U.S. steel mills are said to be hungry for business, causing some to express concern over the future direction of prices.
"Im just sitting here and Ive had a couple of mills call me asking for business," one Northeast service center source said. "I have decent inventory at good numbers and I honestly dont want the numbers to drop. A lot of people are in the same position. But Im really unsure."....

Share Your "We Paid Cash" Stories!
Posted By Crystal Paine On July 7, 2010 @ 8:03 pm In | Comments Disabled
As you know, I am passionate about staying out of debt and living within your means and I think it's especially encouraging to hear personal stories from people who are choosing to be counter-cultural and pay cash, instead of credit.
Have you saved up and paid cash for something recently — like an appliance, furniture or a car? I'd love to hear your story! And your story might just end up as part of the new "We Paid Cash" feature we're rolling out in the next few weeks.
To keep things fun, I'm going to say purchases made with a credit card (even paid in full), don't count. My goal here is to highlight purchases that involved no borrowing of money at all!
Here are the submission guidelines:
- Posts must be high-quality, original content (i.e. not published anywhere else online).
- Include details about how you saved, how long it took, your favorite money-saving tips and any other unique information others might like to hear.
- Please limit your post to 500 words or less.
- Use of bullets, lists and short paragraphs is highly encouraged as it makes reading much easier.
- I'd love to have a relevant photo (of yourself, your family and/or the item you paid cash for) to include. Simply attach it to your submission email.
- Please make an effort to use correct spelling, grammar and punctuation.
- Ensure any links in your post are relevant and valid.
- Include a short bio (1-3 sentences) at the end of your post.
- Email your post to firstname.lastname@example.com with "We Paid Cash" in the subject line.
(These guidelines are not intended to stifle your creativity, but to streamline MoneySavingMom.com's guest posting process. Submissions which closely adhere to these guidelines are much more likely to be published!)
Please allow 4-6 weeks for your post to be reviewed. Once your post has been reviewed, you will receive an email stating whether or not your post has been approved for publication. I plan to post one "We Paid Cash" story per week, so depending on how many accepted posts are in the queue, it may be several weeks before your post is published.
I look forward to being inspired!

The U.S. Office of Special Counsel has released a detailed memo that outlines how the Hatch Act affects certain federal, state and local government employees (check here to see if you fall into this category.) Specifically, the memo addresses social media and identifies acceptable and unacceptable online activities for covered employees on social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook and personal blogs. Covered employees can, for example, advocate for a political candidate or group through their Facebook status updates; however, employees cannot post links to the "contribution page" of a political site.
It's imperative that covered employees know which political activities they can and cannot engage in online, whether at work or at home: penalties range from a written warning to termination. OhMyGov! has created this very handy guide.

Current Office:Governor
Party:Republican Party
Sworn in as the state's 47th governor on December 21, 2000, Rick Perry was elected to a four-year term November 5, 2002 and re-elected November 7, 2006.
A fifth generation Texan, Governor Rick Perry has taken an extraordinary Texas journey, from a tenant farm in the rolling West Texas plains to the governor's office of our nation's second largest state.
Texas' 47th governor, and the first Texas A&M graduate to occupy the Governor's Mansion, Rick Perry has led a life of public service, starting in the United States Air Force and continuing over two decades in elected office.
Governor Perry's administration has focused on creating a Texas of unlimited opportunity and prosperity by improving education, securing the border and increasing economic development through classic conservative values. Under Governor Perry's leadership, lawmakers recently concluded a legislative session that yielded a balanced budget, a tax cut for 40,000 small businesses in Texas and a Rainy Day Fund on its way to $9 billion.
During his tenure, Governor Perry has maintained a strong focus on fiscal discipline, leading the state out of a $10 billion budget deficit in 2003 by cutting government spending. He is also the only Texas governor since World War II to sign budgets that reduced general revenue spending. In addition, he has used his line item veto to scrub more than $3 billion in spending from those budgets, while encouraging investments in the building blocks of a prosperous state: the economy, education and security.
The Texas economy is performing well in the current global economic crisis, thanks to a focused effort to keep taxes low, regulations predictable and legal system fair. Gov. Perry led the effort to reform the legal system, signing into law a series of lawsuit reforms designed to stem the flow of frivolous lawsuits through Texas courts. As a result, employers can devote their resources to creating jobs instead of defending against those frivolous lawsuits. More importantly, the reforms reversed the trend on skyrocketing malpractice insurance rates which has led to an influx of doctors seeking to practice in Texas. As a result, obstetricians and other specialists are returning to practice in previously underserved, high-risk areas.
On the education front, Governor Perry has worked to the quality of Texas schools from top to bottom by increasing accountability, raising expectations and funding programs that work. In addition to introducing the largest teacher incentive pay program in the country, Governor Perry has overseen a 43 percent increase in total spending on public education in Texas. He also signed a school finance reform package that provided a 33 percent school property tax reduction, a $2,000 pay raise for teachers, record funding for classrooms and a reformed business tax.
Stepping into the gap left by the federal government, Governor Perry has worked with the legislature to fund coordinated border security efforts to the tune of $110 million in each of the last two sessions. Pursuing a "boots on the ground" strategy, the approach of integrating and coordinating local, county, state and federal law enforcement efforts, this effort has decreased crime in key areas by more than 60 percent.
Rick Perry's political career started in 1985 as a representative for a rural West Texas district in the state House of Representatives. He was first elected to statewide office in 1990, and served as Texas Commissioner of Agriculture for two terms. Governor Perry hails from Paint Creek, a small farming community north of Abilene. His father, Ray Perry, served as a Haskell County Commissioner, school board member and a World War II tail gunner. Between 1972 and 1977, Governor Perry served in the United States Air Force flying C-130 tactical airlift aircraft in the U.S., Europe and the Middle East.
He is a 1972 graduate of Texas A&M University where he was a member of the Corps of Cadets, a junior and senior yell leader and an animal science major. The younger of Ray and Amelia Perry's two children, Governor Perry is an Eagle Scout and lifetime member of American Legion Post #75.
He first met Anita Thigpen at a piano recital during their elementary school years. They married in 1982 and are the proud parents of two grown children - Griffin and Sydney.

Braithwaite, LA- Three months after Hurricane Isaac, the painstaking process of trying to identify remains that were displaced in Braithwaite, continues.
In Plaquemines Parish, there are still signs of Hurricane Isaac's fury everywhere. Houses in Braithwaite sit empty and tombs and crypts lie broken on the side of the road.
Forensic anthropologists have been hard at work trying to identify the human remains displaced by the storm. Mary Manhein is in charge of the LSU FACES laboratory, and is running the operation. She tells FOX 8, "We've worked on approximately 50 at this point and I would think maybe a third of those have been identified by now."
Manhein continued, "In a situation like this it's difficult to get identifications especially in older cemeteries. These cemeteries have been here for a very long time. Some of the relatives are no longer living or out of state and don't know this has happened to their loved one."
That's where the Plaquemines Parish Sheriff's office comes in. They've been helping to figure out which remains go where, by reaching out to local tomb builders.
Cpt. Mike Mudge explains, "They're always a big help because if they've just recently built the tomb and we found it across on the banks of the river or on the levee, then he can come out and identify it and say I built this tomb for this family."
But in cemeteries that are at least 100 years old, it's sometimes hard to track down someone with knowledge of a particular plot.
"It's just a matter of putting all the pieces together. There's a lot of pieces," Mudge said.
O'Neal Dorsey oversees the Promise Land cemetery in Braithwaite....but has family buried in the English Turn Cemetery. He says he and others in the community are making good progress cleaning up the final resting places of their loved ones. "I'm thinking maybe in another week or two, we're going to be pretty close to wrapping this up," Dorsey said of the English Turn Cemetery.
While Mary Manhein says it could be a while before all the remains are returned to their plots, Dorsey and Cpt. Mudge say they'll focus on cleaning up the area, and making the cemeteries look as close to the way they did before the storm, as possible.
Manhein says next month her team will turn their attention to the Bertranville Cemetery in Braithwaite. It was under water for weeks after the storm.

As another shooting in Five Points brings crime issues in the entertainment district back into the forefront of the minds of people in Columbia, there is a new push for safety.
The man leading the new effort, Joe McCulloch, sent a letter to business owners in Five Points, The Vista, and Main Street asking for all businesses to put up signs that say "No Concealable Weapons Allowed".
"This stuff can be prevented, but it's going to take a concerted effort," said McCulloch.
Earlier this year, a bill passed allowing concealed weapons in places that serve alcohol, but merchants have the right to put up a sign banning concealed weapons.
Jon Sears is co-owner of Jake's, Pavlov's, and The Bird Dog in Columbia's Five Points.
"There's just been a couple of very public events that have really made it look like it's really bad down here," said Sears.
He doesn't want any problems at his establishments, so he's taking steps to cover his bases.
"I'm a gun owner myself and I have a concealed weapons permit, so it's certainly not an anti-gun thing. It's just that I don't want to let anybody get into the position where they could make a very, very bad choice," said Sears.
For McCulloch, the plan is all about safety
"Leave your guns in the trunk of your car. Don't turn Five Points, The Vista, or any other area into Tombstone territory," said McCulloch.
Marcel Melo, manager of Cover 3, has had his sign up for more than a month.
"I think that people will respect the sign, hopefully, and not carry a weapon in a bar. It's not very conducive to good business, I don't think," said Melo.
The signs can't stop someone from bringing in a gun and the bar owners know that.
"If they're going to bring them in, they're going to bring them in regardless," said Melo.
If the signs are up, the owners have more protection.
"Doesn't mean that people won't bring guns in violation of that sign, but if they do that, they're violating the law. They're subject to prosecution, they're also subject to being denied in a court of law, that Stand Your Ground defense that has become very popular lately," explained McCulloch.
Sears and Melo say the increased attention on recent shootings in Five Points has affected business.
"Ninety-five percent of the establishments down here, you see a good clientele. That's what I keep hearing, from students especially, they feel safe in the bars, it's outside of the bars that's the problem. That's what we need to worry about. Those people that are bringing an unsavory element to Five Points," said Sears.
McCulloch hopes his push for more signs will help more people feel safe and prevent more tragedies from happening.
He says he has talked with Mayor Benjamin and is also talking with city officials throughout the state.
McCulloch's push for posting these signs comes one day after filing to run again for House District 75. The Democrat lost that race in 2012 to Republican state Rep. Kirkman Finlay.
Finlay is a Five Points business owner who said last month he would not post signs prohibiting concealed weapons in his restaurant, making the point that his patrons aren't the problem -- it's those outside breaking laws.
Finlay beat McCulloch by 300 votes.

Celticsblog: Does Rondo have an attitude problem?
Jeff Clark has collected some pretty damning quotes. And in the comments are some more. There is a fine line between confident and cocky, it doesn't seem like his teammates and coaches outright hate him (anymore), and a trade is not on the table as per Kelly Dwyer. But obviously the Celtics are not completely happy with him either. "Two seasons ago, before the banners and the plaudits and applause, when Rondo was in charge of a team that won just 24 games, he'd throw a no-look bullet and when it was dropped out of bounds he'd roll his eyes in exasperation. If he set up a shooter for the open jumper and it clanged off the rim, the shooter was subjected to the Rondo stare, a look steeped in disdain and aggravation. Rivers hauled his supposed floor leader into his office and asked him, 'Do you know your teammates hate playing with you?'" "The single biggest thing with him," said Ainge, "is getting him to compete night in and night out." "He's stubborn," Ainge said. "He doesn't always take direction well. He's very bright and knows what he needs to do to be successful. "But sometimes he doesn't understand what the team needs to be successful." "I'm set in my ways," says Rondo, who believes his accuracy will improve with practice. "I don't feel like I have to settle for a jump shot, because I can get to the basket at will." On following instruction from Doc Rivers: "I've learned to handle it a little bit better," he says. "Even though I think I'm right." Between this and his "dirty plays" e.g. in the series against Chicago fouling Miller and Hinrich, you have to wonder if his stock is as high as it once was - and if that attitude disqualifies him in the eyes of the Blazers front office if there ever was a chance for a trade.

Drug agents in Mississippi say new laws restricting the purchase of meth precursors are drastically reducing meth lab numbers in the state.
In Hinds and Rankin counties, between July and December of 2009, there were 16 meth lab busts in Hinds County, and 11 in Rankin County.
During those six months in 2010, after the law was passed, there was a great decline, just one meth lab in Hinds County and two in Rankin.
Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics Director Marshall Fisher says there has been a 70% reduction in meth-related cases statewide. Agents continue to fight meth producers who continue to bring pseudoephedrine into the state to cook up the drug. There has also been a drastic reduction in child abuse and neglect cases, which are often connected to meth users.
M.B.N. Director Marshall Fisher says, "We've seen about a 75% reduction in the number of children removed from meth labs and you will know if you talk to social workers, youth court judges, the incidents of abuse of children of meth addicts is off the scale."
With fewer meth labs to bust, drug agents can now focus on major criminal organizations and other drugs.
The latest to surface is bath salts, sold over the counter in convenience stores. It's a powder that can be smoked to produce a high. There's already a bill in the legislature to ban the bath salts statewide.

An excellent puzzle title that offers mixture of simple but challenging gameplay. The multiplayer options and extra downloadable content will help to keep this game in most peoples PSPs.
A one-trick pony, but it does it well. Multiplayer options are nice, but Go! Sudoku is not necessarily a party game. [Jan 2006]
This is a game that really benefits from its electronic transformation – it is far superior to its paper and pen counterpart. And this is coming from a self-confessed techno-phobe.
A competent package, but due to the pervasive nature of Sudoku these days, you probably don't need to spend any money to get puzzles like this.
So the developers have crafted a very playable puzzle game with a decent multiplayer aspect and screwed it up with a tiny bit of bad programming. Go! Sudoku is nearly scuttled by this strange bug, which is a real shame.
I'll stick to paper and pencil versions of sudoku until a cleaned-up sequel appears. [July 2006, p.82]

The 2010 track and field season started off with a bang for both the men and women, with various school records being set. The teams traveled to the Incarnate Word Invitational in San Antonio to face stiff competition against Division 2 schools Incarnate Word, Angelo State, and Tarleton State. Other schools that showed up to the meet included Trinity, Lon Morris, University of Dallas, Concordia, Sul Ross, and Texas Lutheran.
The day started off with the distance medley relay (DMR). The men took forth with a time of 10:56.43 behind a team that included Daniel Rudd, Avery Sheppard, Addison English, and Allen Smith. The women took fifth behind a team that included Tami Warner, Jillian Curran, Laura Kromann, and Christina Hadly. The DMR is not a common event in outdoor meets, but meet officials decided to include this event to "raise excitement in the stadium". Since the team has never run this event before, school records were established for both the men and women.
Matt Wladyka set a school record in the shot put with a throw of 8.23m, finishing 15th. The men's sprint medley relay (SMR) set a school record as well, taking fourth with a time of 1:44.53.
The men's 5k proved to be an exciting race, with two runners breaking the previous school record of 16:06. Rudd and Sam Martinez ran 15:45 and 15:46, respectively, to finish 9th and 10th. Zach Freeland and transfer Stephen Fuentes ran 16:14 and 16:15, respectively. Both times were personal records.
"We all ran great times and we are really progressing as a group," Freeland said. "I'm really excited to see what we can do this season."
Both the men and women will next compete at the Tarleton Relays on March 11 in Stephenville.
