I was mostly satisfied with my experience at the Holiday Inn Eindhoven. The room had space in the minibar to refrigerate other items, but I was annoyed by the message on the hotel's website suggesting taxi as the only way to get from the airport to the hotel. In reality there is a bus (#419) that goes from the airport to the train station for 3.50 Euros, and the hotel is just across from the station. I paid 25 Euros for a taxi. The hotel also billed me for the room even though I had already paid but ultimately refunded me.

I posted this comment on Husker Mike's blog this morning and thought I would post it here on CornNation for everyone's consideration:
Unfortunately, IMO, it's not going to end well for Bo. Consider:
With T.O.'s retirement, Bo's lost his political cover, and he's not on good terms with Chancellor Perlman. Politically, the knives will be out.
I think Bo knows this, too. There was a little something behind that "we've gotta win out" comment at the post game presser. IMO, he knows he's "on the clock."
Call Dirk Chatelain the "Village Idiot" if you want, but he's now in the catbird's seat of playing the role of "coach killer." Look for people to come out of the woodwork and start dishing dirt on Bo in Dirk's future columns.

Lynchburg, VA - The fourth defendant in a staged robbery at a Lynchburg Papa John's learned his punishment Friday.
Brandon Carey, 23, pleaded guilty to a charge of accessory to robbery. In exchange for his plea deal, another charge against him was dropped.
A judge sentenced Carey to 12 months in jail.
The robbery was at the Papa John's on Old Forest Road in December of 2010.
Police say an employee was behind the heist.
The other three people involved have already been sentenced.

Roger Goodell isn't endearing himself to Washington Redskins fans. The NFL's commissioner informed the Redskins that the NFL will not reduce the salary cap penalties that it levied on the Redskins, causing Washington to lose $36 million against the cap over two seasons, according to The Washington Post.
Both the Redskins and the Dallas Cowboys were hit with cap penalties in March 2012 because of how the two organizations treated the "uncapped" 2010 season. While the Redskins were hit with nearly $40 million worth of cap penalties over two seasons, the Cowboys were hit with a mere $10 million over two seasons.
The Redskins could certainly have used the extra cash to spend in free agency. Washington had been linked to numerous free agents, including cornerback Aqib Talib. Talib re-signed in New England with a modest one-year, $5 million contract. Certainly, if the Redskins had cap space, they could have made a similar if not superior offer.
Washington and Dallas challenged the league's penalties, but an arbiter dismissed the claims, upholding the league's decision to penalize the Redskins and Cowboys.
Neither the Redskins nor the Cowboys were major players in free agency this offseason -- and they won't be, since Goodell will not relent on the cap penalties.

• Printable bracket for March Madness
• NFL Mock Draft: Geno Smith's rapid rise
• Jake Long's impact on the Rams
• NFL free agency grades: Chiefs, Broncos fare well

Cook County - They're the most frequent visitors to Reed Bingham State Park. "During this time of year we get thousands from all over North America and Canada too," said Chet Powell, Park Ranger.
During the winter months, it's rare to find a single tree along the Little River that's not covered with buzzards. "They've roosted and lived on this water as long as anyone can remember," said Powell.
And each year they seem to multiply. Eighty-three year old L.B. Moore grew up at the park, and remembers watching the birds more than 70 years ago. "That was about 1930," said Moore. "I remember seeing them out there in the swamp and as babies on the ground."
The birds also find winter homes in Florida and other parts of South Georgia, but this park seems to be their favorite. "There's lots of food around, they like the trees here, sometimes they'll even return to the same trees every year," said Powell.
And after spending dozens of winters here, they've become one of the park's most treasured species. There's even a festival this weekend to teach people more about the birds. "It's a day of educational and recreational activities," said Powell. "They'll learn a lot of interesting things about vultures they haven't known before."
There will be all kinds of bird shows and pontoon boat rides along the river where you can get an up-close look at the buzzards. The activities start at 9:00 Saturday morning.

Renegade Saturday Night – The Red Headed Stranger
Series Episode #1 Willie Nelson
Part 1 – Willie Nelson Live in 1974
Part 2 - Willie Nelson – Red Headed Stranger
Part 1 is the bulk of a show from 1974. Willie is on his game and so is the band. Good camera work and great sound. Do enjoy!
Part 2 - Willie Nelson – Red Headed Stranger
Side 1 of Willie's Iconic 1975 Album 'Red Headed Stranger'
A tale of a renegade on the run after killing his wife & her lover.
In regards to the Outlaw Country Movement, it stands as one of the most influential albums of all time. An artist, given complete control by his record label (then Columbia) to make his music his way. The result, in my opinion, is some of Willie's finest work. If you'd like to hear side 2, please buy the album. I'm only making these songs available so you know it's out there. It deserves to be heard.

I've been hearing and reading a lot about OU's inexperienced O-line this off-season. Most recently in The Elusive Shadow's post. I started to wonder, considering how much Stoops loved to hammer opponents all the way to the final whistle, how many minutes these guys had played the last couple of years.
I blame growing up as more of a basketball fan than football fan on my interest in the minutes played statistic.
Well, since the minuscule amount of effort I was willing to put into this research failed to turn up anything, here's some info on OU's projected starting line experience:
Trent Williams - Fairly Experienced. Not going to say anything else.
Brian Simmons - He played in every game in '08 for a total of 421 plays. That's an average of about 30 snaps a game, not too shabby. It would appear that while he hasn't been chosen as a starter for his previous few years (he's a Senior) they trusted him enough to contribute.
As The Elusive Shadow said, after those two the experience falls off sharply.
Ben Habern - Played in a total of 3 games in '08. His efficiency was impressive against Baylor. He had 9 knockdowns in 9 plays. Essentially from what I can tell, he's barely played any college football.
Stephen Good - Played in half (7) the games in '08. Not much else about 2008.
Cory Brandon - Played for a total of 148 snaps in 9 games. That's an average of 16 snaps in each of the games he saw action in.
As far as size goes, according to Soonersports their respective weights are:
for a total of 1525 (305 avg.)
This compares with 1555 (311 avg) in '08 and 1612 (322.4 avg) in '07.
Texas' O-line totaled 1550 (310 avg [pdf link]) before Spring started.
I read the FSU SBN blogs post about D-line size (weight) correllating to effectiveness against the defending the run and was wondering if O-line size has any similar correlation.
How will the lack of experience and smaller size change OU's sucess this season? Most of the commenters over at CC Machine seem to think it won't matter. What do y'all think? Anyone care to enlighten me in regards to the importance of size on the O-line rather than D-line?

As a rookie, he scored four touchdowns.

Murphy had another impressive performance in Sunday's 24-23 loss to Arizona, catching five balls for a game-high 119 yards.||||||| Murphy seems to be emerging as the Raiders No. 1 receiver, and if he's still around in your free agent pool, you may want to think about snatching him up.
Murphy had six catches for 91 yards and a touchdown in the Raiders' 16-14 win over St. Louis on Sunday.||||||| Murphy has shown the most promise of the Raiders' young receivers, and seems to have clicked with backup Bruce Gradkowski.

Murphy is being held out of training camp practice with a concussion.||||||| Murphy says he got hurt when he was kneed in the helmet by teammate Nnamdi Asomugha during practice Friday. He has a bad headache and missed practice Saturday. Coach Tom Cable says Murphy will not return until he passes a series of tests that shows he has recovered. Murphy is being counted on heavily in his second year in the NFL. He led all Raiders wideouts with 34 catches for 521 yards and four touchdowns as a rookie last season.

MP Keith Vaz overshadows Labour Conferenceby Alison Mackenzie
Keith Vaz, the Labour MP for Leicester East, has denied any wrong doing in connection with £500,000 payments received into his bank account.
A newspaper alleges that a police investigation at the time found the dealings to be suspicious.
As delegates look forward to Ed Miliband's big speech this afternoon, the Keith Vaz affair is overshadowing events somewhat.
It relates to an investigation uncovered by a national newspaper which says that more than 10 years ago police found payments into Mr Vaz's bank account which they considered "possibly suspicious".
Mr Vaz denies he has questions to answer following the allegations:
– Keith Vaz MP
"It isn't half a million pounds, if you look carefully at my website, look at the report, it is the sale and purchase of property."
On that website he makes it quite plain, he says "my finances were discussed by every newspaper in the country for three years and were the subject of extensive examination. I have no outside interests."
He concludes the payments into his bank account were not suspicious.
Andrew Bridgen, the Conservative MP for North West Leicestershire wants further investigation into this by the Parliamentary authorities.
Meanwhile in Manchester delegates are looking ahead to Ed Miliband's speech in which he will try to reach out to new supporters putting himself forward as a potential Prime Minister.

Rain showers benefit Montana agriculture, but severe weather is another story. Storms should not be taken lightly, as some North Texan residents learned first hand Wednesday evening.
The National Weather Service's Storm Prediction Center reported three tornadoes in the North Texas Area Wednesday evening near the cities of Belcherville, Sunset, and Granbury.
Tornadoes were not the only source of damage, with over twenty reports of hail, some even reaching baseball size, adding to the destruction.
Danny Fletcher, a resident of Granbury, Texas, describes the damage done in Hood County, where six lives where taken...
"There's a community called Rancho Brazos it hit and that was one of our Habitat for Humanity Communities where we had an outreach church mission there serving the community. We're certain those people in these new Habitat for Humanity homes are displaced, and that was my main concern. Those roads were all closed last night and we could not get into those areas."
Danny received a call from a friend letting him know of the tornado warning. He then took shelter in his basement. Meteorologist Nick Langlieb at the National Weather Service in Great Falls has a few more severe weather safety tips...
"So during severe weather, you always want to try to seek shelter indoors. In events such as tornado warnings, you want to move to the lowest floor in your house to an interior room, preferably a small room like a closet or a bathroom. You want to duck down and cover your head." "A car is not a safe place, so if you are in a car and you can't seek shelter in a building, then you want to get out and get as far away from the car as possible and seek shelter by a ditch or a cooly."
The Treasure State has a slight risk for thunderstorms through the weekend. While we not be experiencing tornadoes, it's always good to be prepared.
Remember to tune in for all of your local weather updates - and connect to KFBB through Facebook and Twitter for constant weather coverage.

Many anthropologists teach in colleges and universities, combining teaching with research.
In recent years, more and more anthropologists are applying their skills to jobs in business and public agencies. These skills range from communicating across ethnic and other social barriers to application of advanced expertise in a particular technical area. Different anthropologists have different skills. However, they all share a concern with cultural diversity and its role in human lives.
A Bachelor's degree in Anthropology is evidence of a strong liberal arts education. An undergraduate degree in Anthropology can prepare students for jobs in areas such as law, public health, social services, and cultural or natural resource management. Graduate level study allows students to pursue more specialized careers in Anthropology, as well as to continue on to Ph.D. programs. Some areas that do call for anthropological training are forensics, historical preservation, environmental management, social impact analysis and a few other specialized areas of employment.
Anthropology majors learn many skills that employers desire, especially in today's multicultural workplace. Some of these skills include:
- communication and writing skills
- observational skills
- experimental design
- interviewing experience
- statistical methods
- cross-cultural awareness
Studying anthropology gives a student the greatest breadth in looking at human behavior and in experiencing the rich cultural differences which challenge each of us in today's changing world.
For more information about careers in Anthropology, please visit the CAMP section of this website.

Today was a emotional roller coaster. I doubt there is anyone out there who wouldn't agree. I just wanted to say, I think we're all praying and wishing well to Kevin. It was an awful awful thing to happen to a guy, let alone one of the guys on this team who we genuinely love. Today, we are not the Cardinal Heros, Kevin is.
To reflect that I have made three banners:
I modified the one with the team logos as well:
And kept it going for the logo purists:
While Facebook made it more difficult - here is the profile photo image again:
Which makes it look like this (rather used to) - and looking at this now - wow, have we come a long ways!
Again, as the tourney continues keep updating these with updated scores - I'm giving anyone permission to use these as they see fit. The number of people seeing this is growing, so I'm going to keep it going.
Go Cards. Win for Ware. Beat Wichita State.

For The Herald Bulletin
J.R.R. Tolkien's fantastical world of Hobbits, Dwarves and Orcs returns to the big screen this weekend. "The Hobbit" opened Friday morning with midnight shows across the country, each theater filled with avid fans dressed as Gandalf, Frodo or Aragorn.
It's been a long wait for "Lord of the Rings" fans, a whole nine years since Frodo tossed the ring into Mount Doom in "The Return of the King." Their excitement to finally see Peter Jackson's take on the Tolkien prequel should dominate the holiday box office. "The Return of the King" opened to the tune of $72 million, and its $377 million run brought the franchise's box office total to more than $1 billion domestically and $2.9 billion worldwide.
The success of the franchise both financially and critically makes us long to see other great pieces of fiction and fantasy receive proper treatment in a theatrical release. Here are just a few books that deserve the Peter Jackson treatment (or something as equally grand):
Clive Cussler's "The Mediterranean Caper": The first of Cussler's Dirk Pitt novels, "Caper" is the perfect entry point into Pitt's world of adventure and heroism. Pitt, a marine engineer with the U.S. National Underwater and Marine Agency, often finds himself in situations requiring that he save the world from global catastrophe. At 6-foot-3 with rugged features, wavy black hair, piercing green eyes and a military background, Pitt is more than suited for the job. With 20-plus novels to work with, it could be a long-lived and popular franchise for an actor such as Gerard Butler despite two previous failed attempts to get it off the ground. The series deserves another try.
Neil Gaiman's "American Gods": What if all the gods of ancient religions and mythology were real and were hanging out on Earth like regular people, kept alive and powerful by our belief in them? What if modern society and its gods — technology, the Internet — threatened to destroy them? Gaiman's brilliant novel explores such deep questions in the darkly funny way that sets his works apart. The novel is set to be adapted into a series for HBO by Playtone, Tom Hanks' production company. This may better serve the novel's subplots but one envisions the final battle on a bigger screen.
Dean Koontz's "Lightning": A dream project with Nazis, time travel and one of the greatest love stories ever written. Cast Thomas Jane as Stefan and Stana Katic as Laura, and get Christopher Nolan to direct. I'd never need to see another movie again.
Christopher Moore's "The Stupidest Angel": A Christmas story with a twist only the twisted mind of Moore can concoct. There's a dead Santa, pot-growing sheriff, the Warrior Babe of the Outland, zombies bent on a Christmas Eve meal of brains and an archangel who isn't the brightest star in heaven. It would take a deft hand with absurd comedy, such as Wes Anderson, to pull it off but it could certainly be a holiday hit.

My dog, Penny, has a crush. It's more than a crush, actually.. It's a crazy, intense, infatuated—well, case of puppy love.
You see, earlier this week she met this piece of wood and it was love at first sight. She picked it up, flirted with it a little, then decided to make it her own. She takes it with her on every walk morning, noon, and night. And when the walk is over and I make her put it down outside the front door. She sits at the door for a few minutes and whines, crying for her beloved.
But it doesn't take long for Penny to forget all about her favorite attachment when we get back inside. It's just a few minutes of whining, then she chases the cat, begs for food, cuddles in our laps, and returns to her happy, mischievous puppy self.
When the door opens and it's time for another walk, she picks up the wood immediately and it starts all over again.
I've learned from Penny that it really is possible to leave your attachments (thoughts, desires, ambitions... whatever) outside. You can always pick them up again later.

Well I actually picked up Still Life on a limb. I only had Ghost Reveries up to this point and for whatever reason it just didn't do too much for me (at the time that is). Now I really appreciate the album. I popped in Still Life and my ears were open to an extremely haunting, yet soothing guitar melody. I gotta say that this album completely floored me with it's brilliance. It's one of those special albums to me that you just don't really expect that much out of and it completely excedes your expectations and it really opened my musical senses up to something I have never experienced before. After listening to this album, I finally saw all the hype and praise that Opeth get. They are truly modern day innovators and I have never heard anything remotely close to what these guys are doing. They can go from the most brutal, insane black/death metal esque sound to a beautiful, haunting, folky, jazzy acoustic melody. And believe me if you haven't heard these guys before, they are definitely one of the most talented and complex bands I have yet to experience. Mikael Akerfeldt truly is a musical genius and in my book he has yet to fail in the least bit. Still Life is my favorite Opeth album, closely followed by Blackwater Park and that's saying something because everything these guys have put out is instant gold. It really is hard to exactly put in words just how diverse and excellent these guys are. As for this album, it is their most "balanced" I would say. They have all of their signature sounds and elements in here and they have plenty of acoustic portions in every song. The passion and melody in Mikael's voice found here is superb and he is definitely one of the most distinguishable, best sounding singers in this day and age. It's hard to believe that it's the same guy on this record singing over delicate acoustic harmonies and then the next second he sounds like he's gonna rip somebody's throat out. It makes a great mixture of sounds and textures and just overall variety though.
It really is hard to pick out a favorite song on this album. The two tracks that stand out the most though and that caught my attention would be the acoustic tracks- Benighted and Face of Melinda. Both contain folky, intricate acoustic guitar harmonies that even the most accomplished guitar players would have to work at to perfect. Benighted contains somne of Mikael's most breathtaking/ stunning vocals to date and he can nail that high note. It's a very ambiant tune and definitely one of Opeth's finest acoustic tracks ever. Face of Melinda is a classic live staple of theirs and for good reason. It has alot of jazz in it, put don't fret. I'm not a lover of jazz and I never listen to it as I'm sure many of you don't. But it's something about the way Opeth does it that makes it their own and shows off their amazing talent. This is another very ambiant sounding song. Now for the others. The Moor starts off the album with a very dark/ haunting melody which eventually breaks in to a brutal attack with some very harsh vocals. It kind of drops back down to mid-tempo and goes back and forth between electric and acoustic guitars with clean and muffled vocals. One of the best for sure. Godhead's Lament has one of the best choruses on here, although they never really have a true chorus on any of their songs parsay (take some give some). Moonlapse Vertigo and Serenity Painted Death both continue in the same vein as Godhead's as they both go back and forth from heavy to light to slow/ fast guitar over different vocal techniques. And finally the album is ended off with White Cluster which starts off probably heavier than any other track on the album and ends with beautiful acoustic guitars with a crackling sound in the background.
This is a must have album for any metal fans. It is so much different than anything out there and it is so beautiful, yet so brutal and haunting. This is Opeth's best and as usual every song is an epic, except for Benighted that is. It's truly a different experience in the metal realm and it shows a innovative, technical band at the top of their career. If possible, I would definitely get the new remastered version which has a hard case almost like a book cover and has a real nice fold booklet and a second disc with Dolby 5.1 Surround Sound for DVD players and a live performance of Face of Melinda, which is amazing. I have not heard the older versions of this album, seeing that I'm still fairly new to these guys, but I can say that the production is supberb and for $15 or cheaper this is probly the way to go. Still Life is a modern day classic to say the least and is truly a musical journey.

Man accused of murder
3:58pm Wednesday 24th October 2012 in North West
A MAN has been charged with murder following the shooting of a 23-year-old man in May in Droylsden, Manchester.
Leon Atkinson was arrested following a dramatic early morning raid at an address on Ivy Avenue in Newton-le-Willows on Thursday, October 18.
The 34-year-old, who at the time of the shootings lived with his partner and young daughter in Squires Lane, Tyldesley, has been subsequently charged with the murder of Mark Short and the attempted murder of three other men in May at the Cotton Tree Inn on Market Street.
Following an initial appearance before Manchester Magistrates' Court, Atkinson's case was transferred to Liverpool, where he is due to appear on Monday, November 5.
Dale Cregan, 29, has been charged with the murder of Mark Short and his father David. He is also accused of killing police officers Fiona Bone, 32, and Nicola Hughes, 23, of Greater Manchester Police, in September.

Sorry for my absence
I haven't had the energy to scrap for quite a while, my job is taking up all my energy, I have been feeling dead tired, listless and depressed for quite a while now.
It got so bad I reported sick and asked my GP for an overall blood test.
Well, the results are in. They are better than I expected, no anaemia, no pfeiffer, no diabetes, cholesterol is fine, too, liver function slightly worse than normal, but better than it was in the past (I have different medication, now, which isn't as much of a strain on my liver).
But the one thing they did find covers all my symptoms, which include:
bleeding gums, muscle spasms and cramps, aching muscies and joints, impaired sleep, fatigue, depression, palpitations, and impaired healing of injuries....
The cause?????
My Vitamin D levels are way too low, and probably have been for years, especially in winter. I have been suffering from winter depression and winter fatigue for many years, though not nearly as badly as this winter.
Not that summer sunshine solves it all, I have a very fair skin, so I cannot stay out in the sun for too long, anyway.
So I am going to have to take vitamin tablets with adequate amounts of D on a regular basis.
Re: Sorry for my absence
Oh Anja I am glad they figured out what was causing the symptoms hun.
I think when I was doing IVF they said most people have some deficiency when it comes to Vitamin D I guess fear of skin cancer doesn't help. I take Vitamin D supplement everyday now. Hopefully when your levels improve your sympoms will lessen
Big Hugs and hope you are feeling more yourself soon Anja

Re: Sorry for my absence
Wow, I'm so happy they figured out what was wrong and it's a simple solution! Vitamin deficiencies can definitely reek havoc on our systems and make you feel generally icky - here's to hoping you get some relief very soon, Anja!! I take a multi-vitamin/mineral pill every day and an extra Iron+VitaminC for my slight Anemia - I can always tell when my iron levels are low because I feel exhausted when I get up in the morning, before I even do anything! It's really amazing how little things like vitamins can make you feel so bad! Hoping you feel better soon!!
Re: Sorry for my absence
(((Anja))) I missed you! I noticed you were not here a lot. I look for you. It's such a surprise what a big deal Vitamin D is. I'm glad you found it and are increasing vitamins!
Big huge smooches,
my email
Re: Sorry for my absence
I am so glad they found out what was making you sick. Even better that it has a simple solution. I know what you mean about winter depression. I lived in Utah in the States for 30+ years, and since I was a kid I would have 'winter depression' I moved to Brail and my 'winter' depression changed. It is not nearly as bad as it was. I am guessing it is the vit D. I am happy that you have the answers.

WASHINGTON (AP) - The black mold creeping into the spines of hundreds of people who got tainted shots for back pain marks uncharted medical territory.
Never before has this particular fungus been found to cause meningitis. It's incredibly hard to diagnose, and to kill — requiring at least three months of a treatment that can cause hallucinations. There's no good way to predict survival, or when it's safe to stop treating, or exactly how to monitor those who fear the fungus may be festering silently in their bodies.
"I don't think there is a precedent for this kind of thing," said Dr. Arjun Srinivasan of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Health officials and doctors have tracked down most of the 14,000 people potentially at risk for fungal meningitis, blamed for the deaths of 24 people and sickening more than 300.
"This is definitely new territory for us," he said.
The fungus' brown-black color signals an armor that — along with being injected near the spine —helped this mold sneak past the immune defenses of otherwise healthy people, said Dr. Arturo Casadevall, a fungal disease specialist at New York's Albert Einstein College of Medicine.
"What we're dealing with here is fundamentally different" from a typical fungal infection, he said. "This is a bug that most of us don't know much about."
But they're learning fast, piecing together clues that promise some hope. click here to read more

Every Bulls fan – hell, every NBA fan – has been thrilled by Derrick Rose's explosive dunks since he arrived in the league. Unfortunately, though, due (presumably) in part to self-preservation, and more recently to the obvious fact that he still hasn't fully recovered from back issues, Rose's signature two-handed power dunks have largely been missing from his repertoire this season.
So these days, when I hear Stacy King rave about Rose's 40" vertical, which used to punctuate a fierce tomahawk jam, I find my mind drifting to – of all things – NFL football. Why? Because I happened to be perusing the NFL combine archives, and noticed something truly remarkable.
The second highest vertical leap in combine history was recorded by an athlete even bigger and stronger than Rose – Cameron (Derek) Wake. At 6' 3", 236lbs., Wake, who went undrafted in 2005 in spite of his exceptional athletic gifts, recorded a 45.5" vert! He's now an all-star for the Dolphins, rocking the league with his horizontal and lateral talents.
Back in 2007, though, Wake played for the British Columbia Lions. And at that time, someone had the presence of mind to film a little locker room challenge. Some bills were taped to the ceiling (11' 8"), and Wake, a sculpted mass of muscle, snares them (gotta love the raucous celebrating done by his teammates!). Of course we'd all prefer to see Derrick posterize a helpless defender with a nasty slam, but for the time being, perhaps some will find this to be a interesting diversion...

Cook: Pirates should ship managementSeptember 28, 2012 4:00 AM
Share with others:
Give the Pirates credit. They are making progress. In October 2009, team president Frank Coonelly did new contracts with general manager Neal Huntington and manager John Russell and lied about it for eight months before finally coming clean. A year ago, on the same day the Steelers opened the NFL season in Baltimore, Coonelly gave a three-year contract extension to Huntington, the curious timing designed to lessen the negative feedback after one of the worst second-half collapses by the team in franchise history. At least this time, when Coonelly announced his top baseball people will be back next season despite one of the worst late-season collapses in the history of the sport, he did so in the light of day Wednesday.
They must be so proud at 115 Federal Street.
So what do we make of the news, that Huntington, assistant general managers Kyle Stark and Greg Smith and manager Clint Hurdle will keep their jobs? Is it that Pirates owner Bob Nutting still believes he has "the single-best management team in all of baseball, maybe in all of sports," as he said so famously and idiotically late in 2008? Or is it that it's a lot easier and whole lot less expensive to keep his underachieving people rather than pay them off and hire new ones?
Can we agree it's choice two?
That, for all the preaching about accountability that comes from Nutting and Coonelly, there really is none in the top levels of the sorry organization?
That upper management really doesn't give a damn about winning and cares only about the bottom line?
That Coonelly's talk in the past about "mutual trust" between the team and its fans and how the team will invest in its product as the fans continue to buy tickets is garbage?
It's a consensus, as far as I can tell.
The big problem is Nutting can't be fired. No one even asks him anymore if he would consider selling the team because he has made it clear he will not. He has talked about keeping it in the family so his three daughters can take over. I'm trying to find the positive there. The girls have to do a better job than their old man, right?
Everyone else -- including Coonelly -- can be replaced.
You could make a strong case they all should go.
It's almost comical; Coonelly makes the big announcement that everyone is safe when he could be fired next week. He doesn't get nearly the blame that Huntington does, but he deserves more. He hired Russell in 2008 and gave him that extension. That's impossible to imagine because Russell has the personality of a first-base bag. Coonelly also hired Huntington and gave him that long-term extension. He and Huntington are tied together. They have been at it for five seasons. They still are waiting to celebrate their first winning season let alone any kind of a championship. They have failed miserably.
The won-loss record is the only way to judge any general manager. Huntington has made some good moves and a lot of bad ones. But it always comes back to the wins and losses. Huntington has had five years to get it right. It's hard to argue he should get a sixth.
Stark and Smith are fair targets because they're responsible for bringing young players into the system and haven't done a very good job. Stark has been widely and unfairly criticized for having some of the minor leaguers do three days of Navy SEAL training at the Instructional League. I have no problem with that, just as I has no problem when the Penguins did the same sort of thing a few years ago. There's nothing wrong with demanding mental toughness from your players. It's not as if those players haven't had time to be schooled in baseball's fundamentals. The problem is most are not good enough at the game. There doesn't appear to be a power bat, a catcher or a shortstop in the system who is close to helping the big club. You want to fire Stark and Smith, fire 'em for that.
Then, there's Hurdle. He has been all-in with Nutting, Coonelly, Huntington and the rest for just two seasons. You could argue that, if he were smarter, he never would have taken the Pirates job and would have waited to get the manager's position with a better organization. It's not as if Nutting's reputation around baseball isn't known. You go work for that guy, you deserve what you get.
But Hurdle did take the job, and the Pirates have collapsed at the end of each of his two seasons. He has had no answers. Unless the team finds a way to finish strong, it will be his ninth losing season in 10 years of managing.
Hurdle is a much more dominant person than Russell. It's fair to think he tells Huntington what to do, not the other way around. Certainly, Hurdle had a big say in the team's acquisitions last winter, especially shortstop Clint Barmes, who played for him with the Colorado Rockies. The team gave Barmes a two-year, $10.5 million deal and will owe him $5.5 next season.
Guess who will be the shortstop on opening day next season?
You don't think Nutting is going to eat that contract, do you?
Unfortunately, next season will be here before we know it. Plenty of questions must be answered in the meantime. Who will be in the rotation after A.J. Burnett and Wandy Rodriguez? Who will catch? Will Starling Marte mature as a hitter and learn a little plate discipline? Will the team take Joel Hanrahan to arbitration and pay him millions or trade him? Can it count on Andrew McCutchen to compete for another batting title? On Garrett Jones matching his career-year numbers from this season? On Burnett winning 16 games again?
Good thing the Pirates will have the single-best management team in all of baseball working on the issues.
No need to thank me for reminding you.roncook

Abstract—A novel approach to model the system test phase of the software life cycle is presented. This approach is based on concepts and techniques from control theory and is useful in computing the effort required to reduce the number of errors and the schedule slippage under a changing process environment. Results from these computations are used, and possibly revised, at specific checkpoints in a feedback-control structure to meet the schedule and quality objectives. Two case studies were conducted to study the behavior of the proposed model. One study reported here uses data from a commercial project. The outcome from these two studies suggests that the proposed model might well be the first significant milestone along the road to a formal and practical theory of software process control.

Natalie's Review
Château Barateau Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2005, A.C., Haut-Médoc, Bordeaux, France: Vintages Wine Panel: Winner of a Gold Medal at the 2008 Concours Mondial de Bruxelles. This lovely wine is laden with red fruit and berry aromas. Some chocolate and toffee round out the experience for a decidedly delectable offering. Dry, medium bodied with good length and fruit throughout. My note: Rustic and robust with classic Bordeaux styling. Aromas of cassis and blackberry. Somewhat sauvage, but very pleasant. Needs 1-2 hours decanting. Drink: 2012-2015. 170282 13% XD 750 mL $23.95 Score: 88/100. September 18, 2010 Full Review

Shane "Shaine" Wood, 49, of the 200 block of Sharon Drive in Toms River, pleaded guilty to fourth degree charges of uttering a forged instrument and failure to register with the state Division of Consumer Affairs before Monmouth County Superior Court Judge Ronald Lee Reisner.
Wood is scheduled for sentencing on Feb. 21, when prosecutors will recommend a probationary sentence conditioned upon 364 days in the Monmouth County Correctional Institution.
Wood was arrested in July after an investigation by the Superstorm Sandy Fraud Task Force revealed he sub-contracted with a general contractor to perform roof repair work on a Monmouth Beach property in late-January 2013 as the principal of Reliable Roofing and Siding, according to the prosecutor's office.
The general contractor required Wood's Reliable Roofing and Siding to provide a Certificate of Liability Insurance reflecting Wood's company was covered for New Jersey workers' compensation insurance. Wood, authorities said, transmitted a document purporting to reflect Reliable Roofing and Siding was covered by the John Hill Insurance Company, but the document Wood supplied was deemed fraudulent by the insurance company.
The general contractor then contacted the Superstorm Sandy Fraud Task Force prompting the criminal investigation.

A Day In the Life with Two Under 3
I love when fellow mommy bloggers share Day In the Life posts, so I thought that I would do a quick run down of a day in the life of the Peters family! I am following the The Eat-Clean Diet Stripped plan as our beach vacation approaches, so all of the eats that you see are my interpretation of the meal plans from the book. Please keep in mind that I exclusively breastfeed a ravenous 20+ lb 6 month old, add to that 4-5 fast and furious workouts per... Read More

Happy Monday!

I try to follow Tosca Reno's Eat Clean Diet Cooler 2 plan as closely as possible every day. I find that the Cooler 2 plan keeps me satisfied and energized while still shedding inches. So... Read More
Family Favorites: Oatalicious
Detox Day 1 went really well. Allan and I both felt significantly more energized yesterday afternoon after dragging a bit in the morning. I even had enough energy to wake up early this morning (5:30 AM!!!) and workout. It is so nice to have that taken care of already and be able to spend my afternoons checking things off of my To Do list. I am amazed at how much energy I have today. I really thought that cutting out sugar and caffeine would have more... Read More
Going Without
Today is the first day of a new season of eating for our family. For the last two years Allan has experienced severe digestive issues. His primary care doctor believes that Allan's digestive upset is primarily due to the trauma that he sustained as a result of being shot two years ago. Since then he has simply been living with the discomfort. We decided that instead of simply living with digestive discomfort that we wanted to try to do something... Read More
Back to the Grind
We arrived back in Minneapolis last night and I have been nonstop sorting, organizing, laundering, working and shopping since we arrived. It's amazing the amount of things that need to be done when you are away for 6 days! I plan to make a more detailed post about our time at the cabin; however, I have not had an opportunity to unload the pictures from our camera to my computer. If you have not already, you should check out Allan's blog... Read More
Make A Wish
Today was a lovely day. The day started with Blueberry Almond Breakfast Bakes using this recipe as a base. To keep things interesting, I tried my hand at a little experiment… I subbed almond pulp, leftover from making homemade almond milk, for buckwheat flour, omitted coconut oil and traded out cherries for 1 cup frozen blueberries. We all LOVED these bakes, although they took about 10 minutes longer to cook, which was no bueno. I will do a... Read More

Cooler 1: Day 3
Today has been a LONG day! At least it's starting to cool off a little outside. Those super hot and humid days were very difficult. I hate turning on the air conditioning and we've had it on since last Friday. *yuck* While Matthew napped this afternoon I got to working on some food prep for Matthew and I, including two new Cooler 1 protein bar (actually one muffin and one donut) recipes that still need some tweaking. When they are finally... Read More
Cooler 1: Day 2
I am still rockin' and rollin' on Cooler 1 today. I plan to keep strong until Friday. Then I may have a small cheat meal on Saturday afternoon, as we will be attending my sister's graduation party. My cheat meal will be clean, just not in accordance with Cooler 1 guidelines. Then I will be back to Cooler 1 on Sunday followed by the Stripped Plan on Monday, along with the start of NROL4W Stage 7. I am so excited to be switching things... Read More
Cooler 1: Day 1
How was your weekend? We had an amazing time in Sioux Falls, SD celebrating the 3rd birthday of our niece, Mollie. However, today it's back to the grind. It is HOT here in MN, 90°+ today and tomorrow, so Matthew and I are going to make a Target run this afternoon to stock back up on fresh veggies for the week and possibly pick up a mini swimming pool for the back yard. Today is my first day of Cooler 1 and so far everything is going... Read More

Style Map
Daily Dispatches From The Global Scene
Seeing as how Daphne Guinness has made the skunk stripe her signature hairstyle, she easily ranks among both the beauty and fashion worlds' avant-garde. But she's been taking her proclivity for quirkiness that extra step further during the Paris shows by making crazy eyes at photographers, literally. The heiress-turned-perfumer has been favoring crystallized contact lenses of late, an odd trend that is picking up steam in New York as well (we saw you sans irises at that Persona magazine party last month, Amber Rose). We're all for pushing the envelope, but at the end of the day, do these optical illusions come off as stylishly eccentric or just plain weird?
This is October, remember?
I love Daphne's eccentricity. But this "trend" – if it can be called that – is a little weird. I strikes of theatricality and self-reinvention, which certainly have something to do with beauty and fashion, but there's an element of body modification that's extreme (e.g., prosthetics like at McQueen) and I think these lenses are more to that end. Besides which, if eyes are windows to the soul, what do these lenses say about the soul? :)
Going with NotMod's comment, this could all be a little in-your-face Hallow'een fun!
I think Daphne pulled these babes off great. Love it!

Adm. David Farragut had arrived in Richmond and captured a Confederate ship. He got stuck between the piles of a former bridge a couple miles downriver. When Porter approached to help, his launch got stuck too.
"So now both admirals of the U.S. Navy have been completely embarrassed by having their vessels run aground on the same day with the president in attendance," Gorman said.
A dozen Marines rowed the president to Richmond. They drifted down to a sandbar at the end of 17th Street. The only acknowledgment today is a sign at the head of the Capital to Capital bike trail on the river side of the city flood wall.
"Try to visualize this," Gorman said. "The former slaves are here working on this bridge. They're not going to see him until he crests that rise, and nobody's going to see this ridiculous little rowboat. He's just suddenly going to appear."
A crowd soon swarmed around the president. There was no Army escort in this underbelly of the city, just below the former slave markets.
As they approached Capital Square on Governor Street, they finally encountered Union officers who escorted Lincoln up 12th Street to the new Union headquarters at the Confederate White House.
Their mile-long walk, available as a podcast narrated by Gorman at http://www.civilwartraveler.org, is still steep enough to steal your breath, gaining more than 100 feet in the third of a mile from 15th Street up Franklin and Governor to Broad at 12th Street.
"If you come out and do this, you will be tired by the time you get to the [Confederate] White House, and that's not having to fight through crowds of former slaves who see you as the physical embodiment of their freedom," Gorman said. "You will want to sit down."
And that's just what Lincoln did. He was shown into the library, where he sat down in one of Confederate President Jefferson Davis' chairs and, "crossing his legs he looked far off with a serious dreamy expression," Gorman said.
"There was no triumph in his gesture or attitude. He laid back in the chair like a tired man whose nerves had carried him beyond his strength. All he wanted was rest and a drink of water."
Because about 60% of the furnishings in the house existed in it during the Civil War, odds are that Lincoln's chair is among them.
Lincoln's visit to Richmond lasted only a few hours. Yours could last days.
History is the backdrop for a city that robustly enjoys life. Outside magazine called Richmond the "Best River Town Ever" in its September issue. It's hard to argue with that when you're shooting Class IV rapids through downtown in a rubber raft or floating on an inner tube on flat water. Sun bathers lolling on the boulders, hikers and mountain bikers on miles of paths bordering both sides in James River Park, fishermen, bird watchers, wildlife lovers and photographers each have their own reasons for agreeing.
The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, which opened a $150-million expansion in 2010, bedazzles with an exhibition of Dale Chihuly glass through Feb. 10. Its permanent collections are among the best in the nation for Art Nouveau and Art Deco, English silver, Fabergé and the art of South Asia.
Dozens of other galleries and museums range from the Anderson Gallery at Virginia Commonwealth University, whose sculpture department was ranked No. 1 in the nation for 2012 by U.S. News and World Report for the eighth year in a row, to Henricus Historical Park, which commemorates the second English settlement in the New World in 1611.
Spielberg said he had "an amazing time in Richmond." He's made three movies in Virginia, but "Lincoln" was the first in the capital. His favorite spots tended to be places near his riverfront apartment downtown.
"My wife and I and my children all loved the experience of being in Richmond," he said. "The experience of making 'Lincoln' there made us all want to come back and make another movie there."
Perhaps one with a better ending for its protagonist. Lincoln returned to Washington on April 8, 1865. At a social function at the White House, he revealed a premonition he'd had: He dreamed he awoke in the White House and heard wailing, went to investigate and was told that the assassinated president was in the coffin at the other end of the room.
On April 14, Lincoln was shot while attending a performance at Ford's Theatre and died the next morning.
"Now he belongs to the ages," Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton said.
Thanks to his visits, he also belongs to Richmond.

Udal artefacts allocated to isles' Museum nan Eilean
All artefacts from a site where evidence has been found for every age from the Neolithic to the 20th Century are to be kept on the Western Isles.
Archaeology at Udal provides an "unbroken timeline" of occupation from the Neolithic, Bronze Age, Iron Age, Viking, Medieval through to the 1900s.
Some of the evidence at the site was preserved by wind-blown sand dunes.
Under the terms of a new agreement, the artefacts have been allocated to Museum nan Eilean in Stornoway on Lewis.
Comhairle nan Eilean Siar had asked the Scottish Archaeology Finds Allocations Panel for the material recovered from the site on North Uist be kept on the Western Isles.
Treasure islands
- Other important historic finds made on the Western Isles include the 93-piece Lewis Chessmen.
- Uncovered in 1831, the pieces were probably made in Scandinavia, possibly Norway, about AD1150-1200.
- In 2007, ancient coins were discovered on a beach, giving new clues to the far-reaching influence of the Roman Empire.
- Archaeologists believed the pieces of copper alloy dated from the middle of the 4th Century.
The items include human remains, ancient bone combs and pottery.
They were found during excavations led by archaeologist Ian Crawford between 1963 and 1995.
The earliest Neolithic layers he revealed consisted of a line of stones with a large upright stone nicknamed the great auk stone because of its resemblance to the extinct seabird.
A deep shaft containing quartz pebbles which had been covered over with a whale's vertebrae was also uncovered.
From the Bronze Age, finds included a skeleton and from the Iron Age evidence of metal work.
Also, from the Iron Age were the remains of homes dubbed Jelly Baby houses because the shape of them looked like the sweets.
Evidence of a Viking longhouse and later occupation during the 1600s through to the 18th and 19th Centuries were also found.
From the early 20th Century was a saw pit for cutting up wrecked boats.
The comhairle believes the site on the Grenitote peninsula to be one of the most important of its kind in the world.
It said the preservation of relics by being buried under sand was rare outside of the Middle East.
Western Isles MSP Alasdair Allan said it was "great news" that the artefacts and remains have been allocated to the museum in Stornoway.
He said: "The Udal excavations provide a unique insight into the settlement of a single site over a period of 5,000 years, and for that reason alone the finds from the site are worthy of research."
Councillor Uisdean Robertson said: "Underpinning the development of this project is a partnership with the local community, including the comhairle, Historic Scotland, The North Uist Development Company and other stakeholders.
"It demonstrates the power of archaeology to bring communities together through a positive view of archaeology and create a legacy for North Uist and the Outer Hebrides."

Herdi's artistic village is at home in the hills
Updated 3:56pm Wednesday 3rd April 2013 in News
EAGLE-EYED villagers may have spotted an unusual housing development has cropped up on the side of the Malvern Hills.
But far from being a modern- art estate, this scheme is the work of artist Herdi Ali Kardi, who has created a temporary art installation, entitled The Village, on a rocky outcrop at the bus stop near the West of England car park in West Malvern Road.
The miniature houses are symbolic of Herdi's home village in Kurdistan, northern Iraq, and an official opening took place yesterday, Thursday.
Mr Kardi, who came to England in 2002 and is studying fine art at the University of Gloucestershire, said: "I am from a generation which experienced the violation of war and horrific tragedies of genocide.
"This has had a strong impact on my artwork and is embedded in my thoughts to fight against the darkness of brutality.
"My work demonstrates memories of war and life experience, observations, trials, injustice, persecution and suffering in Kurdish society."
The installation, which has been placed with the permission of the Malvern Hills Conservators who manage the hills, is a tribute to the remarkable spirit of the Kurdish people and the landscape that protected them during times of conflict – similar to that provided by the Malverns.

Stars & Cars: Richard Burton
Richard Burton was THE man. Despite the fact he was nominated for seven Academy Awards, the respected stage actor never took home one of the golden statues. He did, however, nab Elizabeth Taylor and this impressive '50s Cadillac. Two out of three ain't bad.
