Transfer Watson academically ineligible at Wichita State
Aug 17, 2013, 8:30 PM EST
Following a surprise Final Four run, there's little doubt that Gregg Marshall and Wichita State are pulling in better players than the school has seen since Xavier McDaniel and Antoine Carr toed the stripe on campus.
With big-time recruits come big-time headaches, it seems. Marshall had 6'7″, 240-lb. juco transfer Earl Watson schedule to join the team next season, but Marshall told the Wichita Eagle on Thursday that the beefy forward would not, in fact, be making the trip.
Marshall texted beat writer Paul Suellentrop that Watson "did not get done all he needed to in order to be admitted at this time."
Pressed for details, Marshall said "There's an academic class he's got to finish up to have the number of hours to be admissible to school."
It's not great news, nor is it the worst, as Suellentrop points out:
Had Watson qualified, WSU would have been one scholarship over the NCAA limit of 13. WSU's front line, missing departed seniors Carl Hall and Ehimen Orukpe, will rebuild with 6-9 seniors Kadeem Coleby and Chadrack Lufile, 6-8 senior Cleanthony Early, 6-7 junior Darius Carter and 6-8 freshman Shaq Morris.

Measurement of the mobile ion concentration in the oxide layer of a semiconductor wafer
Image Number 4 for
United States Patent #5773989
A method and apparatus for measuring the concentration of mobile ions in the oxide layer of a semiconductor wafer from the contact potential shift caused by ion drift across the oxide that includes depositing charge (e.g., using a corona discharge device) on the surface of the oxide and heating the wafer to allow mobile ions in the oxide (especially Na.sup.+) to drift. The difference in the contact potential measured before and after heating provides an indication of the mobile ion concentration in the oxide layer.

Chris Johnson Rumors
Diamondbacks Acquire Chris Johnson
The Diamondbacks have acquired third baseman Chris Johnson from the Astros for minor league outfielders Marc Krauss and Bobby Borchering, the teams announced. Borchering, 21, was Arizona's first round pick in the 2009 draft while Krauss, 24, was taken in the second round of the same draft.
Johnson, 27, has a slash line of .279/.329/.428 with eight homers in 368 plate appearances this season. The right-handed hitter, who also played a handful of games at first base for Houston this year, won't be arbitration eligible until after the 2013 season unless he qualifies for super two status this coming offseason.
The Diamondbacks dealt from an area from strength in this trade as they are rather deep in the outfield. While Krauss and Borchering were standouts at the Double-A level, they also have prospects Adam Eaton and A.J. Pollock in Triple-A Reno.
GM Jeff Luhnow continues to sell off Major League pieces as a part of the club's rebuilding effort. In the last ten days, the Astros have traded Wandy Rodriguez to the Pirates, Brett Myers to the White Sox, and J.A. Happ to the Blue Jays.

Odds & Ends: Padres, Greene, Dye, Giants
Here are some links to close out the week…
- The Padres are one of several teams to request Noah Lowry's medical records, according to MLB.com's Corey Brock. In a tweet, Brock notes that the team isn't likely to bring Khalil Greene back, and instead will likely wait for an out-of-options player in Spring Training.
- Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News tweets that Rangers are "still pushing" on Jermaine Dye, and team officials met with him last week.
- Grant at McCovey Chronicles ranks the ten biggest "future free agent mistakes" for Giants' fans.
- Tom Haudricourt of The Journal Sentinel mentions that Brewers' GM Doug Melvin and his staff are traveling to Phoenix next week to meet with Mark Mulder and decide if it makes sense to offer him a minor league deal with incentives. Haudricourt previously said we should "expect a signing," and earlier this week we learned that Milwaukee may not have enough payroll room left to add another starter.
- MLB.com's Brian McTaggart looks at the Astros' rotation now that Brett Myers is on board.
- Meanwhile, Alyson Footer of MLB.com tweets that Houston officially announced their deal with Josh Banks, and has renewed the contracts of pre-arbitration eligible players J.R. Towles and Chris Johnson.
- Steve Gilbert of MLB.com has some more details on Bobby Howry's contract with Arizona. Howry can void the $3MM club option for 2011 if he's traded during the upcoming season.
- Tigers' GM Dave Dombrowski said his team "did not really pursue" Scott Podsednik, according to MLB.com's Jason Beck. Scotty Pods had been connected to Detroit earlier this offseason.

Astros Unlikely To Be Significant Players in Free Agency
Richard Justice of The Houston Chronicle writes that the Astros are "unlikely to be significant players in free agency this winter." The team is trying to lower payroll and get younger, something signing free agents generally won't accomplish. Justice does say that the club would like to retain relievers LaTroy Hawkins and Jose Valverde, both of whom will be free agents after this year.
Houston started the season with close to a $103MM payroll according to Cot's, but they could shed $17.75MM by letting Miguel Tejada, Mike Hampton, and Darin Erstad walk as free agents. However, a significant chunk of those savings will probably end up being redistributed to Wandy Rodriguez and Hunter Pence, both of whom should receive big raises in arbitration (Pence will likely qualify as a Super Two).
In their effort to incorporate more youth into their lineup, Justice says we could see third baseman Chris Johnson, shortstop Tommy Manzella, second baseman Edwin Maysonet, and catcher Jason Castro in the Opening Day lineup next year. The team will also probably ask reliever Wesley Wright to come to camp next year prepared to compete for a rotation spot.

Astros Looking To Acquire Third Baseman?
According to Jose de Jesus Ortiz of the Houston Chronicle, in the wake of Aaron Boone's announcement this morning that he'll miss the season with a heart condition, Astros GM Ed Wade received a call from a team "informing him they had a third baseman available" for trade.
It sounds like Wade will entertain the possibility of making a deal, but he first wants to see how prospect Chris Johnson and veteran Geoff Blum will respond to increased playing time. Spring training has been rough on both guys thus far. Johnson, 24, is hitting just .231 this spring with one dinger and six RBI. Blum, 35, is batting .158 with no home runs and just three RBI in 32 at-bats.
"If we think there's a need at the end (of camp), there's going to be guys available," Wade said Wednesday. "I got a call today from a club that's got a guy that they want to make available so if we have the need. We know what Blum's capable of doing and we like what CJ's shown so far. We'll let them play and see what happens."

By Michael Barone, Investor's Business Daily
Michael Barone
Barack Obama has said that he wants to help Democrats win back a majority in the House of Representatives. He says he looks forward to Nancy Pelosi being speaker again.
If he does work hard to elect House Democrats, it will be a change from 2010 and 2012, when he didn't do much at all for them.
But let's say he does. What are the chances of success?
Certainly not zero. Democrats need to gain 17 seats to win a House majority of 218. That's fewer than the number of seats that changed party in 2006, 2008 and 2010.
And let's not regard as etched in stone the Six Year Rule, which says that the president's party always loses lots of seats in the sixth year of his presidency.
That didn't happen in 1996, when Bill Clinton's Democrats actually picked up five seats. And in Ronald Reagan's sixth year in 1986, Democrats gained only five seats.
Which is to say, the Six Year Rule was inoperative in two of the three eight-year presidencies in the last 40 years.
What The Polls Say
Polling shows that voters have much more negative feelings toward congressional Republicans than congressional Democrats.
Post-election polls have shown Democrats ahead of Republicans on the generic ballot: Which party's candidate for the House would you vote for?
All but one of those polls was conducted by Scott Rasmussen, most of whose polls before the 2012 election showed the parties about even in the generic ballot.
Rasmussen's most recent survey shows the gap closing, but that's just one poll and could be statistical noise.
So there's a case to be made that the Democrats can win back the majority.
But there's also a case to be made that they can't, or at least that it will be very hard.
The crux of that case is that the playing field favors the Republicans. Only 16 of the 234 House Republicans represent districts carried by Barack Obama.
That's because by the latest count I've seen (we're still waiting on a definitive tabulation of the presidential vote by congressional districts), Mitt Romney carried 228 congressional districts and Obama carried only 207.
Democrats attribute that to partisan Republican redistricting plans. That's a partial, but only a partial, explanation.
Republicans did protect many of their members in Florida, Michigan, Ohio and Pennsylvania, and gained seats in North Carolina through redistricting. But redistricting plans gave Democrats offsetting gains in Arizona, California and Maryland.
Asserting a legal and constitutional authority he himself said he did not have, President Obama has gone rogue, issuing an executive amnesty for 4-5 million illegal aliens. He ordered the U.S. government not to enforce the law against these 4-5 million, and declared that they are to be exempt from ...

Manitoba's golden girls
Jones, Lawes, Officer and McEwen make history in Sochi
SOCHI, Russia — Give her a lake. Name a curling rink after her. Change the name of a street and give her the key to the city. Jennifer Jones is an Olympic champion and she's Winnipeg's golden curler.
She's not alone. Manitoba-born Jill Officer and Kaitlyn Lawes as well as adopted Winnipegger Dawn McEwen are all gold medallists too and the greatest in the world at their sport.
They move right to the top of the pantheon of Winnipeg athletes. Gold medallists. In curling. It's quintessential Manitoba.
These gold medals enter our history and our culture. The Guess Who. The BDI. Kenny Ploen. Anders and Ulf. Teemu. Portage and Main. Cindy Klassen. Sals. Gimli. Clara Hughes. The Jets leaving. The Jets coming back. Lake Winnipeg. The Forks. Lake Manitoba. Grain.
When we ask ourselves what does Winnipeg mean to us? This golden moment will be part of the recesses of our minds. A forever memory for so many of us.
Curling is our game. It defines us in so many ways and now we can claim a special place in the sport. Our province produced a gold-medal winning team. Quite possibly the greatest team in the history of the women's game.
Certainly Jones is in the conversation as the greatest skip in women's curling.
Four Canadian titles, a world championship and now an Olympic gold medal, all won in the most competitive era of the sport. Today's elite curlers train year-round and the best in the world are professionals where curling comes first. Jones isn't competing against part-timers at the Olympics.
"She's absolutely 100 per cent the greatest ever. I've thought that for a long time," said Officer. "There's a reason I curl with Jennifer. She's motivated me over the years, made me a better player and I owe a lot to her. She's determined, she's a leader."
Officer and Jones got together when they were teenagers and the two marvelled at where they stood on this day. Atop the Olympic podium.
"That's a lot of history to talk about. I never thought we would be sitting here today when she came up to me at the Highlander Curling Club and called me over to the Coke machine and asked me if I wanted to curl with her," said Officer.
Jones grew up in front of the eyes of Manitobans. She's represented our city and our province around the world since she was a teenager. She's done it with grace and honour and dignity. And don't forget excellence.
"We achieved this moment for so many people in our lives. All of our friends and families, the city of Winnipeg, all of Manitoba and Canada and that is priceless really. There's no bigger moment or feeling in the world than that," said Jones. "I couldn't believe it. To have all of Canada behind us, not the pressure of it but the excitement of having all those people cheering us on and people in Winnipeg cheering us on, sitting there on the edge of their seats and we did it for them too."
Little girls have had a hero in Jones to look up to in curling for a long time. She's provided an example of how an athlete should work, commit and compete. Manitoba children getting their start in curling now have an Olympian to emulate. One can hear kids fighting over who gets to pretend to be Jones in their scrub games in curling rinks all over the province. All over the country. All over the world.
Jennifer Jones is gold today. We already knew she was. Now it's written down forever.

Liberty Alliance Project
"Closing the ID loophole"
Two leading federal agencies have joined an alliance of organizations working to address digital identity challenges.
The General Services Administration and the Defense Department's Defense Manpower Data Center have joined the Liberty Alliance Project, a consortium of more than 160 organizations and companies developing standards for electronically managing identity information.
Liberty Alliance specifications could play a key role in helping government organizations authenticate the identity of individuals and organizations that want to conduct business with government agencies via the Internet.
GSA is responsible for the development and implementation of a common infrastructure for authentication services across the federal government, so it is significant that the agency has signed on as a Liberty Alliance member.
Whether GSA's membership will help advance the government's e-Authentication services remains to be seen, said Steve Timchak, GSA's program manager for e-Authentication, which is one of the 24 e-government initiatives in the President's Management Agenda.
However, GSA officials want to play a key role in the alliance. "We want to influence future releases of specifications" by providing policy and technical expertise, he said.
GSA joined the alliance because "industry and government have the same concerns addressing identity management," Timchak said. These mutual concerns include issues such as single sign-on where an individual logs on to a network once and has access to multiple services he or she is authorized to use, as well as the management of user credentials across multiple systems.
The Defense Manpower Data Center joined the Liberty Alliance because it is involved in several projects in which there is a need for secure digital identity, according to agency officials. The center collects and maintains critical information for DOD, including automated power, personnel, training and financial databases.
By joining the Liberty Alliance Project, the center and GSA will work with corporations such as American Express Co., America Online Inc., General Motors Corp., Hewlett-Packard Co., MasterCard International Inc., RSA Security Inc. and Sun Microsystems Inc. to develop specifications for a federated network identity model.
"A federated network identity model will enable every business or user to manage their own data and ensure that the use of critical personal information is managed and distributed by the appropriate parties, rather than a central authority," a report on the Liberty Alliance Project Web site states.
The alliance released Version 1.0 of its federated network identity specifications in July 2002. Future specifications are expected during the first half of 2003.

Eric Hackathorn
Information Technology Specialist
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
Hackathorn proved that virtual-world technology can have practical applications in making public data more accessible.
Hackathorn built the agency's presence in virtual worlds by creating its Meteora Island in Second Life. Now NOAA is able to globally broadcast its work on predicting hurricanes, protecting coral reefs and modeling tsunamis.
"NOAA now has recognition across the globe as a strong scientific organization," said William Bendel, chief of NOAA's Technology Outreach Branch. "Many young adults — and others — have never heard of NOAA.… Eric was able to promote our mission and to show the value of NOAA's science and research on a global basis."
Hackathorn has since established a virtual continent for many federal agencies, including the Defense Department, the Energy Department, NASA and the National Institutes of Health.

What are the chances Eriksson or Bobrovsky play a game this season?

So the chances are very slim. We would have to see a similar catastrophe like we had last season.
Is this correct?
Probably. Backlund played very well last season. Unless Bob destroys the league it will be hard to overthrow Backlund in his spot. Backlund was the teams MVP (Im not making that up, he was voted as the Phantoms best player)

New Mexico's TV airwaves are already sizzling in the race for governor – and the general election is still five months away.
It's early in the game, but the players are slinging beanballs and flashing their spikes.
The Republican Governors Association struck first at Democrat Gary King – and this week King has surprised a lot of people by swinging right back. The RGA ad proclaims "Gary King was a terrible attorney general – he'd be worse as governor." The intent seems clear, to beat up King early and perhaps blow him out of the saddle with a pre-emptive strike.
But King is already firing back with an ad that aims straight at Republican Gov. Susana Martinez. "She is attacking to cover up for New Mexico being named the 2nd worst-run state in America, one of two states to lose jobs," the ad asserts. King has only $80,000 left in his campaign account according to his last report, but he dug deep to get his message on TV.
Susana Martinez is sitting on more than $4 million in her bank account, with a new ad on the air. "My parents started a security guard business around the kitchen table," Martinez recalls in the ad. "I guarded the parking lot at a Catholic church bingo." The ad is a positive image piece, concentrating on family history and the virtues of small business. Martinez is leaving the attacks to the Republican Governors Association – at least for now.
Accuracy? Both of the attack ads rely on newspaper editorials, one lawsuit, and a couple of national rankings. Best advice is to take them, not with a grain of salt but maybe a whole tablespoon. A little healthy skepticism goes a long way in an election season – and this season is looking like a long one.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Behind The Glass

They may seem like unwanted guests, but Pierre McGuire and Glenn Healy are on the cutting edge of hockey broadcasts because of a new role they have created. It's the bench-side commentator, a hybrid of reporter and colour analyst that had its debut in the National Hockey League last season. McGuire, with NBC, and Healy, on Toronto Maple Leafs regional telecasts, set up at ice level between the two benches as part of the play-by-play team. They quickly produced results. In addition to providing quick information on strategies and injuries, they had a front-row seat to the drama and conflict of coaches and players working together under game conditions.continued

Google Video Viewer tweaked for Non-Google content
'DVD Jon', a Norwegian programmer, has tweaked Google video to make it play clips that are not on Google's servers.
Google Video ( http://video.google.com ) is a web-based video search service that lets people use keywords to search for videos from numerous suppliers.
To watch videos on Google Video, a browser plugin is necessary. Google Video Viewer can be downloaded here: http://video.google.com/video_download.html.
Google has restricted his Video Viewer to only play back files that are stored on video.google.com. The Google Video Viewer is based on the open-source VLC player ( http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ ) which is a highly portable multimedia player for various audio and video formats (MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DivX, mp3, ogg, ...) as well as DVDs, VCDs, and various streaming protocols.
When you download and run the patch of Jon Lech Johansen ( http://nanocrew.net/?p=114 ) to remove this restriction, you can also watch with the Google Video Viewer non-Google hosted videos! Running the patch requires a .NET runtime.
People are advised NOT to install this Video Viewer patch, according Google, as "It could result in security vulnerabilities on their computer and may disrupt their computer's ability to access Google Video". But why should we believe Google? Google is protecting his Video Viewer, but when you can use it for other content, why shouldn't you do it? Give it a try and post your feedback on the wallies.info blog.

First overseas centre for Indian pension scheme to open in Dubai
India to open centre in Dubai to enrol thousands of Indian expats in pension scheme
- Image Credit: Devadasan/Gulf News archives
- Indian consulate in Dubai.
Abu Dhabi: The Government of India will soon open a centre in Dubai to enrol thousands of Indian expatriate workers in its ambitious Pension and Life Insurance Fund (PLIF).
The voluntary scheme offering three important benefits will help the skilled and unskilled workers to save money for their old age, to have financial means when they go back home and a life insurance cover for Rupee 100,000 (Dh6,500) during their work abroad.
About 65 per cent of more than two million Indians in the UAE are blue collar workers and they will get an early opportunity to enrol in the scheme.
Workers between the age of 18 and 50 who hold a Emigration Clearance Required (ECR) passports are eligible to enrol in the scheme. India issues ECR passports to those who have not passed matriculation (Grade 10).
The enrolment centre to be opened in the UAE will be the first overseas centre for the purpose, said the Ministry of Overseas Indian Affairs (MOIA) which introduced the scheme, in a statement issued to Gulf News yesterday. The ministry has already opened two enrolment centre in Kerala in India.
The Indian Embassy is considering Dubai to set up the enrolment centre for the scheme because of the presence of large number of Indian workers in Dubai and northern emirates, Indian Ambassador to the UAE told Gulf News on Tuesday.
"We are thinking of operating the centre as part of the already functioning Indian Workers Resource Centre (IWRC), a support centre for workers," M.K Lokesh said.
Indian Government will provide a contribution of up to Rs2,000 (Dh130) per year for male workers and Rs3,000 (Dh195) per year to women workers for up to either five years or until the worker returns home, whichever is earlier. The proposed contribution shall flow to the individual PLIF account of each eligible subscriber.
The workers have to contribute between Rs1,000 (Dh65) and Rs12,000 (Dh780) per annum towards pension fund and Rs4,000 (Dh260) towards return and resettlement fund. They will derive corresponding benefits when they go back home and during their old age.
It is observed that a majority of the earnings periodically remitted by the overseas Indian workers to their families in India are rarely accumulated as savings and often cause only a temporary improvement in the lifestyle of their families, said Vayalar Ravi, Indian Overseas Affairs Minister. As a result, a majority of overseas Indian workers face the risk of poverty when they return to India and when they are too old to work, he said.

I love genealogy and am really enjoying posting to FAG. My cousin turned me on to this site, and after discovering so many graves of my ancestors, I wanted to pay back.
When time allows, I try to find death records and look up census records in order to list family members. Very often, the name on the stone will be only initials, or even a nickname. By finding the death certificates, I am able to enter the persons correct name, along with other information.
I also try to link the family members or, if someone else has entered the memorial, I contact them and ask them to link the members.
I strive to not make mistakes, but if you find some, please let me know and I will make the corrections. If you find your family member, let me know and I can transfer ownership to you. This is all about bringing families together, and I want to help all I can.
At this time, I am working on the Evergreen Cemetery in Lipan, Hood county, Texas. This is going to take quite a while as it is a large cemetery, but it is a joy to do.

RE: Mary Kelly
Hmmmmm! I sometimes think the gremlins are at play. You might try going thru the same links, but on the page that lists the spouses (where it wants you to add more), just delete the memorial number next to her name. If that doesn't work, you can ask firstname.lastname@example.com to delete her from the memorial for you. Hope this works. Good luck!

RE: Mary Kelly
Hi, Valesca,
I know it's hard to figure out some of this stuff. But, as manager of the memorial to delete a spouse - First you must be signed in to Find A Grave. Go the Mary's Memorial; click on "edit" next to "Family links" (about half way down). From there you can delete the spouse or other unwanted links. Hope this helps.

William Burns Malone 1843-1909 FAG # 46435364
I just sent a couple of Edits through on Burns Malone and thought I would add these final comments:
He was furloughed from the Army 30 Apr. 1865, and married Emily Jane (called Jane) Fuller 25 Oct. 1865. Jane was the daughter of Henry Fuller and Emily McDONALD Fuller.
During the period 1865-1880, Burns and Jane Malone had three children. Othella Malone was born 25 Sep. 1867, John William Malone was born in Jul. 1877 and Ira Ernest Malone, Sr. was born 19 Feb. 1880.
He is my 1st cousin 4 times removed just as a point of reference.

Breakdown: "There's great awards!" declared the race announcer a few minutes before the tenth annual Run to Remember kicked off at eight this morning. "Well, there's good awards," he amended quickly with a laugh. "I hate to oversell."

Settlers protest removal of illegal outpost
A group of Israeli settlers gathered at the Beit El military base near Ramallah Sunday night to protest the planned removal of an illegal settlement outpost in the northern West Bank, but Israeli troops went ahead with the removal of the outpost on Monday morning.
The outpost, located near the Israeli government-approved settlement of Shilo, between the Palestinian cities of Nablus and Ramallah in the northern West Bank, consisted of four trailers set up in recent weeks by right-wing Israeli settlers associated with the price tag movement.
