Certain vehicles are being recalled because if a crash were to occur not requiring deployment of the front airbags, the head of an unbelted front seat passenger could hit the instrument panel, resulting in personal injury because the panel may not sufficiently absorb the impact. As of this writing, General Motors is still working on a remedy for this concern.

RepairPal Expert Overview:
Fire Risk from Damaged Wires Under Seat
RepairPal Expert Overview:
Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana vans are used by the Explorer Van Company as the base vehicle for some of their van conversions. Certain Explorer vans are being recalled because the wiring under the power seats may not have been properly secured during vehicle conversion. The wires can be damaged by the seat mechanism resulting in an electrical short and possibly a fire. Dealers will inspect and replace any seat wire harness found to be damaged. If the harness is not damaged, it will be secured to prevent future damage.
Possibility of Accident Due to Faulty Ignition Switch
RepairPal Expert Overview:
Under regular conditions you should not be able to remove your key from the ignition cylinder while your car is on and/or your transmission is not in the Park position. This may occur due to a manufacturing defect in your vehicle's ignition lock cylinder. Removing the key while the vehicle is still running and/or in Park may allow your vehicle to roll away causing an accident. To correct this condition GM will replace the ignition lock cylinder and 2 provide 2 new keys. The GM recall # is 12332.
Potential Failure of the Transmission Shift Interlock System
RepairPal Expert Overview:
All late model vehicles are equipped with a "Shift interlock" system that prevents vehicles with and automatic transmission from being shifted out of the Park position under certain conditions. Some of these vehicles are being recalled because they may have been assembled with a broken park lock cable or a malformed steering column lock actuator gear. Failure of these components can allow the shifter to be moved out of the Park position with the ignition key removed or in the off position. This can cause the vehicle to roll away unexpectedly increasing the risk of injury or a crash. Dealers will inspect the recalled vehicles and replace the steering column as necessary.

Grid optimization is the process of making the power grid as good as possible. But even though the grid optimization concept is simple, the practice is complex because it involves multiple variables and tradeoffs. In power grid optimization, we must find just the right balance between reliability, availability, efficiency and cost. Fortunately, the smart grid offers a number of grid optimization solutions. First, smart devices gather information, providing a more accurate and detailed understanding. Second, smart software analyzes that data and suggests grid optimization adjustments to wring maximum value from grid assets. Scroll down for grid optimization, Volt/VAR optimization and related resources.

MINDEN, La. (AP) - Another Webster Parish fire chief has been arrested - making five parish chiefs arrested in the past five years.
Tuesday's arrest of 47-year-old David W. Camp on charges of improper spending came just hours before a counterpart in a neighboring district resigned amid a criminal investigation on similar allegations.
In January 2010, former Shongaloo Fire Chief Charles Ray Duke Jr. was arrested on multiple felony charges related to allegations he used taxpayer money and donations to pay household bills and make personal purchases.
Former Cullen Assistant Fire Chief Mark Eubanks was arrested in 2007 on child pornography charges.
The Times reports Camp was booked on charges of malfeasance and unauthorized use of an access device over $5,000. His bond was set at $20,000.

November 29, 2014
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) -- In Memphis and across the nation, more people are taking the train.
The Commercial Appeal reports Amtrak ridership in Memphis has increased nearly 93 percent since 1997.
Last year, a record 73,116 riders bought tickets to or from Memphis, an 11 percent increase over fiscal year 2011.
Nationally, Amtrak saw a record 31.2 million riders last year.
A study by the Brookings Institution released last week found that Amtrak's passenger totals are increasing faster than other domestic transportation modes. Most of the growth is being driven by the increasing popularity of routes under 400 miles, such as the Memphis-New Orleans corridor.
Donna Derryberry, of Memphis, said she takes that route regularly to visit her sister in Covington, La. She told the newspaper, "It's convenient, it's cheap and it's easy."

Let's take a stab at some comments/tips/opinions shall we?
MT + 2 OT. Hits moderately hard, frequently using his sabre lash attack which is applied across all 3 tanks. Sabre lash can be individually avoided by each of the tanks. Threat is wiped following bonestorm. Majority of damage is physical provided you don't stand in frost.
Gear choices:
MT might consider including threat pieces to ensure smooth transition out of bonestorm. Also consider taunt glyph (or equivalent)
OT gear for max EH but once above a safe threshold, avoidance items may reduce healing load.
2+ MT according to strategy. Phase 1 tanking multiple fresh spawning adds, mix of physical and magical damage. Phase 2 transitioning to tank+spank with rotation between 2+ tanks forced by threat reduction debuff, weak melee with splash magic damage and high damage single target frostbolt that should be interrupted.
Gear choices:
Enough HP to survive getting hit by a frost bolt (in case of accidents) and then threat (hit/exp) gear for good add control in P1
Gunship Battle
1 Tank for Saurfang with high EH and potentially some avoidance gear.
1 Tank for the boat, geared to pick up a series of adds spawning with fresh agro tables (hit/exp gear for control)
Deathbringer Saurfang
2 MT (assumes tank switching on Mark of Blood) rotating. Soft enrage at 35%. All damage physical.
Gear Choices:
Enough EH to comfortably survive the frenzy at 35%, then threat/avoidance gear as per personal preference/raid strategy. Consider glyph of taunt or equivalent.
2 MT forced to switch by Gastric Bloat. Boss self buffs by inhaling, hits very hard once fully buffed. Majority of damage is physical.
Gear Choices:
Max EH gear. Consider trinkets with controlled cooldowns for use in planned rotation. Equip alternate weapons/sigils/etc for use when not tanking but buffed with gastric bloat.
1 MT tanking boss, moderate hard hitter. No reason to tank switch, majority physical damage (some avoidable splash).
1 OT kiting adds (aside: not sure what stops a dps doing this)
Gear Choices:
Normal EH gear for both MT and OT. OT may consider glyphs/gear to assist ranged threat/taunt (e.g. hit, glyph of taunt or equiv) and possibly trinkets with controlled cooldowns.
Prof. Putricide
(Speculating somewhat, not killed this in 25 man yet)
1 MT tanking boss until phase 3. Moderate physical hits with chance of some magic splash. High chance of healer interruption (forced movement).
2 OT tanking boss at 35%. Tank switch forced by Mutated Plague.
Gear Choices
Max EH for the MT and Abom driving OT. OT 3 will be a third wheel in p1+2, consider compromise in gear to increase dps.
The kind of gear tuning I'm talking about isn't re-socketing all your gear for expertise or dodge... but I'm sure most tanks have a selection of trinkets in their bags, or a choice of weapons, or a spare set of gloves with armsman enchant, etc.

Associated Press
BAGHDAD (AP) -- Iraq's embattled Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, in a surprise speech late Sunday, resisted calls for his resignation and accused the country's new president of violating the constitution, plunging the government into a political crisis at a time it is battling advances by Islamic State militants.
Al-Maliki is seeking a third-term as prime minister, but the latest crisis has prompted even his closest allies to call for his resignation. A parliament session scheduled for Monday to discuss the election and who might lead the next Iraqi government was postponed until Aug. 19.
On Sunday night, in a nationally televised speech, al-Maliki declared he will file a legal complaint against the new president, Fouad Massoum, for committing "a clear constitutional violation."
Al-Maliki, whose Shiite-dominated bloc won the most seats in April elections, accused Massoum of neglecting to name a prime minister from the country's largest parliamentary faction by Sunday's deadline. He said the president has violated the constitution "for the sake of political goals."
Al-Maliki, speaking on Iraqi TV for the first time since U.S. forces launched airstrikes and humanitarian airdrops in Iraq last week, said the security situation will only worsen as a result of Massoum's actions.
"This attitude represents a coup on the constitution and the political process in a country that is governed by a democratic and federal system," al-Maliki said. "The deliberate violation of the constitution by the president will have grave consequences on the unity, the sovereignty, and the independence of Iraq and the entry of the political process into a dark tunnel.
The political infighting could hamper efforts to stem advances by Sunni militants who have seized a large swath of northern and western Iraq in recent weeks.
President Barack Obama warned Americans on Saturday that the new campaign to bring security in Iraq requires military and political changes and "is going to be a long-term project." Obama said Iraqi security forces need to revamp to effectively mount an offensive, which requires a government in Baghdad that the Iraqi military and people have confidence in. Obama said Iraq needs a prime minister -- an indication that suggests he's written off the legitimacy of the incumbent, al-Maliki.
Critics say the Shiite leader contributed to the crisis by monopolizing power and pursuing a sectarian agenda that alienated the country's Sunni and Kurdish minorities.
Just hours after al-Maliki's speech, the U.S. State Department said Sunday it "fully supports" the new Iraqi president.
State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said in a statement the U.S. supports the process to select a prime minister "by building a national consensus and governing in an inclusive manner." She said the U.S. rejects any effort to use coercion or manipulation in the process of choosing a new Iraqi leader.
The U.S. airstrikes have reinvigorated Kurdish forces battling the Islamic State militants in northern and western Iraq. Kurdish forces retook two towns from the Sunni militants on Sunday, achieving one of their first victories after weeks of retreating, a senior Kurdish military official said.
Kurdish peshmerga fighters were able to push the militants of the Islamic State group out of the villages of Makhmour and al-Gweir, some 28 miles (45 kilometers) from the Kurdish capital of Irbil, Brig. Gen. Shirko Fatih said.
The United States launched a fourth round of airstrikes Sunday against militant vehicles and mortars firing on Irbil as part of efforts to blunt the militants' advance and protect American personnel in and around the Kurdish capital.
U.S. warplanes and drones have also attacked militants firing on minority Yazidis around Sinjar, which is in the far west of the country near the Syrian border.
In the Kurdish capital on Sunday, the president of the semi-autonomous Kurdish Regional Government, Massoud Barzani, said American military support has been effective thus far, but, he added, peshmerga soldiers require more firepower to defeat the militants.
"We are not asking our friends to send their sons to fight on our behalf," Barzani told The Associated Press in a brief interview. "What we are asking our friends is to provide us support and to cooperate with us in providing us with heavy weapons that we are able to fight this terrorist group."
Barzani met Sunday with French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius, who traveled to Baghdad and Irbil pledging France's commitment to providing humanitarian aid. Fabius also met with al-Maliki and called on Iraqi leaders to unite in the face of the escalating crisis.
"The marching order is solidarity," Fabius said. He called on Iraqis to form a "government of broad unity so that all Iraqis feel represented and together lead the battle against terrorism."

manager and players like Giggsy – he gives me advice all the time. That's made me more mature, and I understand the game and the Premier League even more. If I'm doing well, it's because I'm working hard, but a lot of it is because of the manager and players like Giggsy.
You look really confident in your own ability when you're playing…
When you are playing well, you feel confident. And when you are confident, you feel like anything is possible. If you have the quality, you just need to be confident and then you can produce your best football.
Are we seeing the complete Nani now, or is there still more to come?
As a player I think that I'm nearly complete. Now I can say I am one of the top players in the world. I play for the best club in the world and I play every game, and I think my role in the team is to score goals or set up goals so that this team can win games.
Is that important to you to know that and to believe it?
Yes, of course. You have to believe in yourself and believe in your abilities. That's how you become the best player you can be.
You've mentioned a few times about the extra work you've been doing in training. What specifically have you been working on?
When you have a lot of games it's not so easy because you are resting and recovering. But last week – when I wasn't playing in the Carling Cup – I was able to do extra work in the gym, you can stay behind after training and work on your ball skills, your shooting, crossing, free-kicks, everything. In the summer I did a lot as well. Two weeks before we started training I was doing running to get myself fit; I was frustrated after missing out on the World Cup, so I wanted to be ready for the season with United.
You seem to thrive on the big stages as well, do you look forward to the big matches?
The big games are for the big

Thanks for the plug JV!
[especially since mine wasn't completely horror related, but a mixture of all the genres]
Looking forward to reading yours!
I'll agree that Diary of the Dead was awful. I actually was really hoping that it was one huge joke. But judging from all of Romero's interviews about the film he actually took what he did pretty seriously.
You're calling Cloverfield & The Strangers awful but have Midnight Meat Train & Jack Brooks on your list?
I think it was the hype that made me dislike Cloverfield. I'll admit, we may have our American monster now, but hand held vids are a horrible cliched cinema technique.
As for the Strangers, I compare it to Funny Games (watch the original or remake) and tell me the truth, which one is better.
I'll defend MMT and Jack Brooks. Both made me applaud after seeing it which I can say Clover and Strangers didn't in its 80 or so minutes.

Great brand name fixture at 1/2 price. Looks fabulous over the sink in our powder room. It's a contemporary look with traditional lines. The quality is superb, as you would expect from this higher end lighting manufacturer. Only potential future issue the expensive halogen bulb that it will require, but they provide one in the box, so it looks and works great now.
I purchased two of these for over my peninsula in my newly renovated kitchen. They look fabulous! Very good quality, nice size, not too small. If you like the look, buy them. You won't be disappointed.

The month ended on a low note when a battling Crystal Palace side pulled off a shock extra-time win in the Carling Cup quarter-final at Old Trafford to knock United out of the competition, while the Reds' disappointment was further compounded by nasty injuries to Fabio, Rafael and Dimitar Berbatov.
Goal of the month - Hernandez v Swansea
Not a vintage month, but we'll go for this deft finish. Giggsy intercepted a poor Angel Rangel pass, drove into the area and squared it for Chicharito, who conjured a clever first-time finish at the near post, lifting the ball over Vorm as he came out to smother.
Player of the month - David De Gea
Kept two clean sheets in his four games and made several top-class saves. Denied Scott Sinclair to preserve the win at Swansea, while a superb reaction stop from Newcastle's Fabio Coloccini was described by Alan Pardew as "absolutely unbelievable".
Quote of the month
"Alan Pardew said Newcastle were the better team in the first half – I don't know what game he was at! To not get three points was a travesty." - Sir Alex Ferguson.

Game time is 7:05 p.m. ET when the Phillies and Rockies play the second game of their four-game series. Discuss it here.
« Pat the Bat bombs the Rox as Phillies win in extras | Main | Wild Card Wednesday: Rockies-Phils; Pads-Dodgers »
To stay with Eaton, it is impossible to see him pitching well tonight.
He hasn't had a quality start since early July and has a 7.20 ERA since June 17th.
Can anyone actually visualize him getting Holliday or Helton out?
And based on the past few season, Eaton's mean is probably about a high 5s ERA, and his peripherals are as bad as you would think looking at his ERA...so no help there.
we will need to win with the bats, and given the rockies' starter, we have a nice chance of doing that.
as a credit to the phillies position players (and maybe manuel), they have never blamed the pitching or even the bullpen for blowing games. a team that hits this well and pitches this badly could have easily turned on itself. guys like rollins and chase have lead by example from day one and the team has accepted their situation and done what they have to to win rather than moan about the need to score 7 plus a game. good work phillies. i think they can easily take this game. eaton will stink, but the guys know waht they have to do.
kdon - yes I can visualize it. But my mother did always say I have a lively and active imagination.
But if you believe in the idea that positive thoughts can create positive outcomes, maybe if all the beerleaguers were to visualize Eaton locating his pitches effectively for the next three hours, we could get a quality start out of this guy.
Positive thought - the fans helped to win the game last night, and it can happen again.
Maybe Eaton will start, give up his usual 4 runs through 2 and then a downpour will come, bringing a lenghty rain delay meaning Eaton wont be able to come back after the delay. Then the Phils can come back and win....or they could just never restart the game if we are getting killed.
It's sad that they've worked this hard to get back into a serious race, and then management throws Adam Eaton out there to pitch. It's just a joke.
kdon - not only can I imagine it, it's happened before. Eaton faced the Rockies @ Colorado on July 8th (back when his ERA was a slim 5.69). His line: 6 IP, 8 H, 4 ER, 1 BB, 3 SO, 2 HR on 111 pitches (78 strikes). He was the pitcher of record, although Madson pitched much better. Eaton had 5 ground ball outs and 9 fly ball outs, and he actually shut down Holliday. Holliday was 0-4 with a SO and left 3 on base. Matsui, Helton, and Hawpe had good days. I don't think Matsui will even be in the lineup tonight.
Eaton's last 2 starts:
Durbin's last 2 starts:
Lest we forget Hamels' last two starts.
Just saying. Please come back, King. They kind of need you to do, um, well down the stretch.
Weather.com has it clearing up in Philadelphia in the next few hours. We'll have to rely on other acts of God to get through this one. God knows we need all the help we can get.
I find it much easier to visualize the top 5 in the lineup going 12 for 17 than seeing anything positive with Adam Eaton...
Eaton is horrible, really friggin' horrible. However, I continue to allow myself to be fooled into thinking he may pitch a decent game. I guess this is the same dim-witted notion Patty G went on when he signed him to that ugly 3-year deal...ugh!
I'm love me some Pat "The Bat" Burrell and Chase Utley lately. This offense is awesome, just wish we had some semblence of a pitching staff to go with it.
mike nutter makes a good point--it is a testament to the character on this team that the rest of them have never said anything against the lousy bullpen. It must frustrate them watching lead after lead disappear, but they don't show it publicly.
I'm in New York right now and it's cloudy but it hasn't rained in a couple hours. People in Philadelphia, what are the chances of getting this game in? I have to decide whether to go to a bar after work that plays the games or go home, and I don't really wanna end up at the bar if the game is not being played. Please help with my decision folks. Thanks
The rain is stopping and the clouds are moving out to sea. The game WILL be played.
We'll see how long Eaton lasts. I think if I was Elmer, I'd have the bullpen warming up in the 1st inning.
"We'll see how long Eaton lasts. I think if I was Elmer, I'd have the bullpen warming up in the 1st inning"
Besides Myers, Romero, Condrey and Alfie (depending if he hasn't lost 6 MPH on his fastball or not that night), I wouldn't have anyone warming up in that bullpen. NO one else would pitch.
Who is he going to bring in? Castro? Rosario? Mesa again? You are better off having Eaton in there. At least he can hit. At this point, all starters have to get to the 7th inning every night, come hell or high water. Watching Kane Davis or any of the other cast-offs and retreads come into playoff-type games/situations is sickening and Gillick ought to be ashamed of himself. So, the answer is not pitching them at all. No more "Put it on a tee" Mesa. No more "2 balls for every strike" Castro. No more "Big Daddy" Kane. No more Gas Can. Use Flush with EXTREME caution (and be ready to get him out as soon as he shows he has no command again). Hope the offense gets a big lead each night and bails you out. That is really the only way left to win.
Eaton's due. He has only had 8 quality starts in 26 starts this year (and none in almost 2 months). Everybody knows September is "Adam Eaton Time". Time to pitch the Phils to the post-season!!!
Jack- I have lived a long and happy life. I decided a long time ago that if it came to a choice between going to a bar and doing anything else, it's best to go to the bar.
Jack, BTW, even if the game is rain-delayed, as long as you're not driving home it's ok to STAY at the bar until play resumes.
Really...it's ok!
More bar rules for rain delays--
no shots until play resumes
you have the option to turn the sound down
no wagering during the rain delay
(except on the length of the delay)
RE: the weather
I'm in God's country 60 miles west of Philly. The sky is brightening and the sun is starting to come out. These same conditions will probably occur in South Philly in about an hour, so the game looks good.
Sometimes I wonder if PTB, Howard and Utley want to strangle the pitching staff when they have good nights then lose because the pitchers can't do their job.
And Jack - bar. The choice is obvious. Bar. Either you get to see a good game, or you can drink enough that you won't remember how painful it was.
I can't believe someone suggested having Alfonseca ready. Since Aug. 19th, he has a sparkling 18.69 ERA. That's 4.1 innings over 8 appearances in which he's allowed 9 hits and 6 walks.
Here's the log...
Came in a tie game in the 7th, left down 3 runs after an inning.
Came in down 1 in the 6th, left after a walk and 3 outs.
Came in ahead 4 in the 7th with a runner on first, walked a guy and was immediately removed.
Came in ahead 3 in the 8th with a runner on, left the game down 1 with 2 runners on without recording an out.
Came in down 3 in the 8th, left down 6 at the end of the 8th.
Came in down 3 in the 6th with 2 on and 2 out, left down 3 getting the last out.
Came in down 2 in the 6th, left down 2 in the 6th.
Came in ahead 3 in the 6th with 1 out, left ahead 3 after getting two strike outs.
He's a crapshoot at this point. He's had a few good short performances and some absolutely catastrophic performances.
Regalmeans: to the contrary, I believe that Rollins, Utley, Howard and maybe a few others got together and said they wouldn't say anything about the pitching. This gives the team better cohesion than the finger pointing and the blame game.
Hey at least Barajas isnt starting with Eaton
I would use ALfonseca only if men are on base, because his one asset is he can get ground balls, but neither he nor Mesa should ever start an inning.
Confidence level:
Myers (likely unavailable tonight)
That's pretty sad...
1. J Rollins, SS
2. C Utley, 2B
3. P Burrell, LF
4. R Howard, 1B
5. A Rowand, CF
6. J Werth, RF
7. W Helms, 3B
8. C Ruiz, C
9. A Eaton, P
1. C Sullivan, CF
2. T Tulowitzki, SS
3. M Holliday, LF
4. T Helton, 1B
5. G Atkins, 3B
6. B Hawpe, RF
7. Y Torrealba, C
8. J Carroll, 2B
9. F Morales, P
kdon, you nailed the confidence levels, although I might trust davis slightly less than geary. (Out of principle, I refuse to say that I trust Geary "more" than anyone.)
Damn it, I said I was done with this stupid team when they blew that 8-2 lead.
As always, this was a lie.
When you look at the list, it really is amazing that Cholly keeps on trotting out ALfonseca and Mesa. I'm sure that if this team need a 7th inning guy tonight to hold a lead, Cholly will go to Alfonseca over Condrey, Geary, or Davis, despite the fact that he is statistically worse over the season and is pitching terribly.
Bad veterans are the most dangerous commodity in baseball.
Well, that didn't take long.
Hmmm. Perhaps I should have just stayed away.
think we can score 10 tonite...its gonna take at least that with Eaton pitching and the wind blowing out!
As I said before, it's just really sad that Adam Eaton is on the mound. How can a team do that and legitimately say they wanna win? Not a single person in this discussion thinks we're gonna win tonight. When will they realize that they're not making the playoffs because of the starts they've wasted on Adam Eaton.
when was the last time you saw 2 starting pitchers with era's over 6.20 pitching in the same game?
Despite his antics, Eaton does strike out Sullivan, Holliday, and Atkins.
Also, thanks everyone for contributing to my bar question. I'm still at work right now, but will probably head there soon. Of course, I guess I always knew I'd end up there. My wallet hates me. And I hate Adam Eaton.
Phils will win and win big.
Unfortunately, that was the best Eaton has looked all year, at least in the 1st inning..
It would is fast becoming a Phils' tradition, Eaton manages to give up a run in the 1st inning. It's a good thing that we can enjoy this fine tradition for another two years.
did wheels just say the Rockies pitcher is "a little bit of a hooker"
I take back everything bad I ever said about Burrell if its true that he got the eye surgery and this is his true potential
Not having to listen to Chris Wheeler was in my top 10 reasons to leave Philadelphia and move to Austin.
Yeah, the Rockies pitcher is a dirty pirate hooker
2nd nite in a row JRoll with a lousy at bat to lead off the game. Whereas Utley & Burrell worked the hooker.
Dude I was at the Phils/Cards series in ST. Louis and I saw Adam Eaton and Kip Wells (but not in the same game). Thankfully enough, I think that much bad pitching would have put me over the edge. Funny, Wells actually pitched good before the rain delay, but Eaton went down hard facing Adam Wainright.
On a night where the Phils need 6 innings from Eaton, he comes out with his typical slop and proceeds to need 22 pitches to get through the 1st inning.
My money on the most useless, overrated Philly athlete right now is on Eaton.
Well, that was impressive.
Wow, that's awesome. Where are these strikeouts coming from? How long can it last?
Disaster averted. I know it's Brad Hawpe trying to take the base, but Chooch still has to make the very good throw. He did.
Let's go, bats... turn this lineup over against this nobody...
MG, he has struck out 4 out of 6 batters. I guess that goes to his, "Having good stuff, not a good pitching mind" idea. Ruiz has to be in the top 5 defensive catchers in baseball. At least with the arm.
Eaton gets a lot of swinging strikes every time he pitches, they just never seem to be third strikes. Our numbskull analysts say this is because he lacks a strikeout pitch. I would say it's because he lacks location.
Parker - Eaton has 4 Ks so far is more due to the fact that the Rockies are taking some bad hacks than Eaton has good stuff so far.
Tonight's game is really in the offense's hands though. If they don't score at least 6 or 7 runs tonight, they will lose.
Yeah Tray, I have to agree with that. Eaton makes some hitters look ridiculous. I still remember him striking out Carlos Delgado(swinging) with a 2-seam fastball that hit Delgado in the ribs. But he seems to just let some pitches drift into the zone too much.
MG, thank you for the double dose of pessimism.
How bad would it taste to have Eaton pitch a good game and us lose 2-1? Let's score some runs eh
I think it is just a matter of time before this Rockies pitcher gets hammered here. However, they may be saying the same about Eaton. I guess it is just whoever can run faster from the chasing bear. I just hope they figure Morales out before the Rockies yank him.
funniest part about the fake Eaton DL stint was that Baseball Tonite was analyzing Eaton's arm angles from 2000 to the present. From the 25 pitch video you could clearly see his arm angle has dropped significantly over the past few years (its a small sample size i know). However this led the analyst to infer that Eaton has been pitching with a shoulder injury and he'd been trying to compensate for the pain.
Go Phils. Our pitcher sucks less than their pitcher.
If the Rockies' pitcher tonight sucks so much, why are the Phillies not hitting this guy?
The Phils want to wait to see how many runs they are going to need before they start hitting.
offense gotta get some runs.
Well, there goes another one. Home run or strikeout. He left a curveball over the plate. That is ridiculous.
2 runs in 3 full inning so far...and he's managed to lower his era
Maybe the Phils should invest in a humidor.
2 runs thru 4 is decent.
his sh!t must be biting really hard tonight. 6 k's thru 4?
If Eaton can keep the ball down he can be good. If not look out at the concession stands.
There goes Pat again. What's the easiest way to find out if someone's got a streak going. Is that on Baseball Reference?
There's one example of where putting the bat on the ball isn't better than a K.
Jesus, Helms can't even get hit by a ball well!
This is Helms deal, fstball count.
And he misses it off the plate.
During the All Star break, PtB:
1) Had lasik surgery
2) Began taking a really good drug
3) Was occupied by the ghost of Ted Williams
4) Was replaced by a cyborg
curt, what would it take to get Helms to do the same thing.
Dang, what else can happen to one of out pitchers?
Curt- Earlier today I searched net for Burrell + lasik and Burrell + contact lenses. No mention of lasik, but there were a couple of stories around March 07 where the Phils suggested Pat get contacts. He went to Doctor, who said his eyes needed correction. Prescribed contacts. Much crying and cursing cause he didn't like them, couldn't put them in, didn't see any better with them, etc. Stories didn't say whether he still wears them or not.
eaton's fault getting hit because he couldnt put the pitcher away in the first place!
Looks like the Luck Gods are paying us back for last night.
Alright, now have to, wait, whats that? Score runs. The only thing this team is really good at.
Squatter, as far as I can tell, the lasik rumor started on beerleaguer as a tongue in cheek joke a few weeks ago. You gotta love the rumor mill!
I imagine Eaton is done for a PH this inning.
Muts down 9-0. Would be nice to gain some ground on them. Delgado still hurt, and will be out for a while, so anything is possible
No, nothing is possible when it comes to catching the Mets.
Ruiz cannot be making that out, take some freaking pitches against this bum. Eaton will probably look more professional against this guy.
The rules of Mathematics say you are wrong Tray.
guess not. Eaton is a good enough hitter to justify his spot.
Your basic Ruiz AB, hacking at ball 3 on a 2-0 count.
What the heck is going on here, they are swinging at garbage, absolute garbage.
Kdon- I think he ought to get lasik, if he can. Fact- he checked with a doctor, his eyes need help. Glasses aren't practical. He's too much of a baby to wear contacts. Solution- surgery. That is, if he can. I think it only works for nearsightedness, not astigmatism, and I don't know what in particular Burrell's eyesight problem is.
Well we've managed to slice a run and a half off of this guys ERA. I hate anonymous lefties.
parker - you're right, eaton looked a thousand times better than ruiz in his AB.
this team is so goddamn infuriating...
3 bad ABs by Rollins = next to nothing offense.
you gotta try and hit that ball on the ground to get on base. if you get on, you're off to the races against torrealba, who wheels and sarge have said 100 times is struggling back there after taking a foul tip off his ribs.
j roll, uts, rowand, werth for the rest of the game have to try and get on and steal some bags to get back in this
Well, where is Kane Davis
I don't see Eaton getting through the heart of the order unscathed.
Squatter, I remember the contacts story well. It's incredible that he wouldn't wear them. It was the only time when I really questioned what his priorities were.
8 million dollars
wow. 5 IP and 4 ER.
great stuff
second night in a row that i've called a holliday homer. let's hope pat the bat still has some magic left.
Maybe a PH last inning would have made sense after all.
More than any other manager I know, Cholly bats pitchers and then gives them a quick hook the next inning.
Eaton needs to be removed from the rotation, and Cholly needs to learn that you can't press your luck with this guy.
Three mistakes in this park = almost all the offense you need.
Seemed like Eaton had a real chance to shave a few points off his ERA tonight. Unbelievable that we're gonna have to watch him for 2 more years.

HARRISONBURG, Va. (WHSV) -- A recount is very likely in the attorney general race between Democrat Mark Herring and Republican Mark Obenshain.
According to state rules, if two candidates are within a percentage point of each other, the candidate who is behind can request a recount.
The way it works is the state board of elections has to certify the election results. After that, the losing candidate has up to ten days to file a request for a recount.
The issue then goes to the courts and that can include requests to inspect voting ballots.
A lot of political analysts predicted this race would be close, as both sides really poured in a lot of money to their candidates at the end.
According to reports, Obenshain actually out-raised Cuccinelli in the final weeks.
Dr. Steve Longenecker, a local political analyst said Obenshain ran his campaign differently than the other republicans.
"I think the attorney general race was close because it reflects the close division of Virginia voters," said Longenecker, "Obenshain ran a tad more to the center than Cuccinelli did. Obenshain did not run as a tea party candidate."
Both candidates have released statements about the ongoing uncertainty.
Herring said, "We want to make sure all precincts are accounted for and results are accurate, all absentee ballots are counted and every Virginian who cast a provisional ballot has their voice heard."
Obenshain said, "Elections like this are a reminder of the importance of participating in the Democratic process. We're going to wait until the State Board of Elections finishes its tabulations, and make any further decisions at that time."
So far, neither candidate is conceding or claiming victory, and because of how close the race is, Herring said there will be a state funded recount.

Aquinas Institute invites leading theologians and other experts to speak on current topics in theology and ministry at our annual Aquinas Lecture, held in honor of our school's patron, St. Thomas Aquinas. Invited scholars bring the thought of Thomas Aquinas and Catholic intellectual tradition to bear on contemporary theological questions and issues.
Sunday, Jan. 26, 2014, 3:00 p.m.
The lecture will be held in the ballroom of St. Francis Xavier (College) Church in St. Louis.
Given advances in medical therapies, what constitutes appropriate care? Are there limits? How does one "think with the Church" in this challenging moral area?
This year's Annual Aquinas Lecture focuses on a critical contemporary issue: Care at the End of Life.
Dr. Daniel P. Sulmasy, M.D., Ph.D., is a general internist, philosopher and professor of medicine and ethics in the both the University of Chicago Department of Medicine and the Divinity School, who will consider real situations and illuminate possible responses. He is a member of the Presidential Commission for the Study of Bioethical Issues, and studies end-of-life decision-making, ethics education, and spirituality in medicine.
The Aquinas Seminar, held for the Aquinas Community for further conversation with Dr. Sulmasy, will take place at 10:00 a.m., on Monday, January 27, 2014 at Aquinas Institute of Theology - 23 S. Spring Ave. - St. Louis, MO 63108. A Mass to celebrate the Feast of St. Thomas Aquinas will take place at 11:30 a.m. on Tuesday, January 28, 2014 at the same location.

Recommended ESO Addons
Like pretty much any other MMO out there, The Elder Scrolls Online is far from being perfect. There are certain elements within combat, looting, and other user interface specifics that can be downright frustrating. Luckily there are developers out there who like to improve upon games using the API to create addons. Below we've outlined some of our favorite ESO addons that we think will help you out as well.
ESO Combat Addons
There aren't a ton of addons associated with improving the combat interface of Elder Scrolls Online at this time but there is one and it's one of absolute favorites.
Foundry Tactical Combat
It's called FTC (Foundry Tactical Combat) and it comes from the awesome team at TamrielFoundry.com. This addon does a number of things including track buffs & debuffs, provide information regarding incoming & outgoing damage, heals, and a multitude of other useful actions.
Here is a video of FTC in action as well as instructions on how to install it:
Want more of an upper-hand in battle? Be sure to grab your copy of this detailed Elder Scrolls Online guide to learn how to dominate ANY foe in PvE or PvP, get the best gear quick, load up on gold, and more.
ESO UI Addons
ESO is designed to be very minimalist in terms of a user interface. The problem is that the game lacks the ability to tell you most of what is happening in-game when it comes to looting, gaining experience, and so on. For many MMO players this information is absolutely necessary. Thankfully there are some great UI addons that correct some of these issues.
Slightly Improved Experience Bar
This is probably one of the simplest yet most useful addons available. ESO fails to tell players exactly how much XP they earn from each kill or quest completion which can be rather annoying. Plus it's somewhat annoying trying to figure out how much more experience you need to level up.
Slightly Improved Experience Bar fixes this a bit by giving more information about earned XP and improving the display of player leveling progress. This makes it much easier to determine how much experience you're earning and how much longer it'll be before you rank up again.
You can grab this handy addon from this ESOUI page.
Achievement Tracker
Achievements have become an integral part of pretty much every game these days. And loads of us love to go out and hunt them down. Unfortunately Elder Scrolls Online doesn't do a great job of explaining what achievements are available to get or how to get them. That's where the ESO Achievement Tracker addon comes into play.
This addon transforms a portion of your in-game Journal into a full-on tracking panel for all achievements. It lets you discover what achievements are available to get, automatically detects and alerts you of achieves that are available in the zone you're currently in, and shows your current progress on each one. It's an extremely useful tool for achievement hunters.
You can download the Achievement Tracker via this ESOUI page.
ESOhead Markers
ESOhead Markers is a supplemental addon for the original which gives players an advantage by providing markers for every gathering node, chest, and Skyshard location on the map. It displays these locations based on nodes & chests that you've previously encountered.
This addon does, however, display all Skyshards on the map whether or not you have found them yourself. So, if you're someone that would prefer to explore the world and seek these out yourself you may not want to use it.
You can download the ESOhead Markers addon via this ESOUI page but please note that you will also have to download and install the official ESOhead addon (if you haven't already) in order to use it.
Miscellaneous ESO Addons
This section is for random other addons we've discovered and believe are worth using. These are typically designed to address a very specific need that isn't combat or general UI related.
Sick of having to visit a merchant every so often and dump unwanted junk items one by one? Well now you can sell all the items you consider be a waste of space in a single sweep anytime you go to a merch using the insJunkYard ESO addon. This wonderful work of art allows you to mark certain items as junk and once you go to a merchant to sell stuff these marked items will automatically be sold all at once.
This addon has several user configurable options that allow the player to label certain items as junk, automark certain item types as junk, and auto-sell all items that are considered by the player to be junk. Very useful and easy-to-use tool.

The facility is clean and well taken care of. I feel secure in my items not being stolen or vandalized. The owner is VERY nice and easy to work with. He knows his stuff too!
Communication was great
Agent told us we could return the truck to corporate owned location as it would be after-hours for him, however, we were told at that location that we could not as it was setup as a "local" move which was a little frustrating. Overall the experience was fine but would have appreciated correct information on the drop-off location.
good customer service by manager
Superb service, I would rent from them again.
The owner is nice, the facility is secure, and the rent policy seems forgiving of real life situations.
Staff is great to work with.

Jeff was very helpful! I would recommend this facility to anyone needing a storage unit.
Helpful staff. Facilities were clean and easy to access.
Manager was very helpful
The facility is a little old but the worker was friendly and informative.
The wall on one side was a bit off which made it a bit difficult to even things out, but otherwise the place seems solid/secure.
The manager, Donna, was professional and friendly. Check in was quick and easy. The space I rented was clean with good access.
The manager was professional and cordial. Check in was fast. The space we rented was clean with good access. I will probably use them again.
Donna was very nice and the move in process went smoothly. It is my first time in storage and I have good feelings about it. The place seemed clean and safe. I had no real trouble.
I was very pleased, I was called and told they close early on Saturday,our move in day, and took care of everything over the phone so we could continue with our move from Tulsa. Thanks, Donna!
Donna was very nice and helpful.

PLANTATION — A paramedic who is suing the city and tried to form a union has been fired.
Jeffrey Poole, 43, was fired Monday for violating department policy and insubordination, according to Joel Gordon, Plantation Fire Department spokesman.
Gordon said Poole "failed to report secondary employment and failed to follow a direct order from the fire chief related to that." Poole said he reported his outside work as a Realtor; the city said he didn't.

Yates: "I'm definitely doing Doctor Who movie"
Despite Steven Moffat repeatedly denying it, director David Yates is insisting that his Doctor Who movie will go ahead.
"Yes, I'm definitely doing a Doctor Who movie," Yates told Bleeding Cool. "But I think where everyone got confused was that we're not making it for five years, or six years – it's a very slow development. I've got projects backed up between now and about 2015, and it's something I'm very passionate and excited about.
"Steven's a genius. I love his work, I think he's incredibly clever. I love what he's done with Doctor Who, love his Sherlock Holmes. He's such a gifted man. But this is something that's a very slow burn and I'm hoping to sit down with him at some point and have a chat. It's just something that we've been talking about for a little while."
Last year, Yates stated that the movie will reboot Doctor Who and not be a continuation of the TV series. However, this time he remained non-committal.
"That's all to be discussed," he said. "Because it's five or six years from now. It's weird because … what will the series be like in five or six years? But I'm very excited about it, very excited about that world."

AWRI Information Services Center
Bear Creek Stewardship Plan - Innovations in the Proposed Management Plan
The implementation effort provides an opportunity to incorporate several innovative approaches and practices to watershed improvement. These include:
1. Highly visible partnerships between public and private organizations and individuals to achieve goals. To date, a wide range of "players" have been involved in the planning effort, including local township officials, county commissions and boards, environmental advocacy organizations, local schools and universities, and private citizens. The establishment and maintenance of close working relationships between these entities is expected to be a hallmark of this Project.
2. A visible, active public education and participation component. Many of the program features designed to achieve an informed public are innovative, including WHEELS, HELP, The Bear Creek Players, the Bear Creek Citizens Committee, the video(s), Riparian Clubs, and the 4-H Project.
3. A focused, creative public policy initiative to insure the creation of ordinances or laws, as well as a high level of voluntary compliance with watershed protection practices.
4. The creation of BMPs to serve the entire watershed region, especially where site-specific BMP implementation would be prohibited by excessive costs. In the area of animal waste management, for example, the large number of geographically dispersed livestock sites renders the construction and maintenance of individual site-by-site containment and manure treatment structures too expensive for consideration. Instead, attention will be directed toward the development of a process and associated structures which can contain and treat livestock wastes in a single location for use by all livestock owners.
5. The improvement of fish habitat via in-stream structures. AWRI is currently implementing a grant-funded demonstration project to construct trout habitat structures in Bear Creek. These structures have the potential to enhance the aquatic diversity of the entire stream system.

I'm ready to join >
It's getting to be that time of year when we think about what our summer is shaping up to be like.
Where will we go? What would we like to do? Where will our pennies allow us to go and do what? Which
things do we put at the top of the list along with the also-rans? It's also the time of year when most NINC
members start making their decisions about the NINC Conference, scheduled this year for October 24-27 in
Myrtle Beach, SC. For most of us, it's a matter of how many conferences
we've already committed to, where the money is best spent, and, let's be
honest, have we been there before and does it sound like a fun location?
The last two I can answer for you. No, NINC hasn't been to Myrtle Beach before and, yes, it will be a fun location. It's got beach, and water, and
spa — did I say beach? — and lovely vistas, and shops, and restaurants, and
beaches. I know, but I've lived most of my life far, far from sand and surf. So
any location that has beach in its title gets an automatic second look in my
More seriously, NINC is one of those organizations that doesn't have
local branches that allow us to interact all year long. If we don't come together once a year, then we begin
to fray badly. We don't even know who else belongs. We lose the cohesiveness that keeps any organization
vital, its membership engaged, and its members willing to participate in the very necessary administrative
work required to keep us going.
I know. I've made all the excuses myself:
Can't afford it this year. Legit. Or is it? Can you afford not to be there?
Tired of traveling. Hmm, comes with the territory of being a 21st Century human. We live everywhere.
Most of us have to travel most of the time to get to any conference.
I'll see my friends at other events. Perhaps, but they won't be all hearing the same publishing business
news at the same time in real time so you can react and discuss together and come back later that day or the
next, and get or make clarifications with the industry's top people. There's a lot to be said for being present.
How hard was it to describe a "lifeboat" to those who didn't attend last year?
Another reason to attend. NINC is growing, and new members mean the possibility of new friends with
new skills and points of view on the business. Two for one there.
Did it last year so maybe next year. It never fails to be that the skipped year is the year to be there.
Won't I hear the same thing I heard before?
Of all the above concerns, this one is probably the most important and urgent one for a organization that
has business as it raison d'etre. And, a more than fair question: what do I get for my bucks?
We like to think the business doesn't change that much in any given year. Well, of course, we know that
the past few years have made a lie of that presumption. The publishing business is moving at breakneck
speed. I almost fainted when I saw my most recent contracts. Printing out five copies each for the three

To understand a good design quality has to be determined by using acceptable yardsticks. How to characterize a good design 1. A good design must meet a stated need 2. Or and elaborated requirement/ standard 3. A good design takes into consideration the needs and wants of the people. 4. Values of the target audience have to be put in mind. 5. A good design exploits knowledge and technology to achieve the best. There is no definite formula/ method used to attain a successful design Most designs are routines, the subject of design is all encompassing integrating every sector of the industrial society. The differences and similarities of designers would be considered for better understanding of the subject. 2013-04-05 14:04:47

I did this for my wife phone this Christmas :)
I once gave my brother-in-law a DVD where I'd replaced the inlay card with one I created in Photoshop so I looked like a porn film! His face was a picture as he tried to hide it from my sister!!!
Then another year, or maybe it was the same year, I said I wanted a camera and they come back with one of these disposable ones. then later on they gave me the actual gift which was a camcorder.
since then I have been doing the box in the box with a crap load of packing tape and hiding any sharp objects in the house. hehe
For Christmas, I gave my brother a gift card taped to a brick, and wrapped in 5 layers of various kinds of 'gift wrap' He almost missed the card because of the side he opened first XD.
but first he was presented the batteries, wrapped in cardboard tubes
assembled to look like a pipe maze. It was so darn funny.

Click the photo to the left to see an image of the suspect
A 27-year-old Wisconsin native is one of dozen injured during a shooting early Friday morning at a suburban Denver moving theater. According to WTMJ-TV, Carey Rottman, 27, was shot in the leg. Rottman's father tells the station his son is expected to be okay. Rottman attended Homestead High School in Mequon, Wis.
The suspect apprehended in the mass shooting at a suburban Denver movie theater has been identified as James Eagan Holmes, 24, law enforcement sources told CBS News correspondent Bob Orr.
Twelve people died in the shooting at a showing of the new Batman film "The Dark Knight Rises" in Aurora, Colo., early Friday morning. A law enforcement source told Orr the shooting appears to have been carried out by a lone gunman.
One federal official told CBS News that at this time Holmes appears to have been "under the radar." CBS News reports Holmes doesn't appear to have a criminal record in Colorado or in San Diego, Calif., where he graduated from high school. Pentagon officials said there is no record of Holmes having served in any branch of the military.
According to the University of Colorado, Denver, Holmes was in the process of dropping out of the school's graduate program in neurosciences. School spokeswoman Jacque Montgomery said in a statement that Holmes enrolled at the school in June 2011. She didn't say why he was withdrawing.
The University of California, Riverside, confirmed to CBS News that Holmes graduated in 2010 with a degree in neuroscience.
There was no immediate word of any motive for the attack. Federal law enforcement officials were briefed on the attack, but at this point there is no indication it is terrorism-related, CBS News senior correspondent John Miller reports.
Police evacuated the area surrounding Holmes' Denver-area apartment, saying the residence was apparently booby-trapped. A law enforcement source told Orr that police saw what looked like "buckets of extra ammunition" and some kind of chemical inside his home.
Aurora Police chief Dan Oates said it could take hours or days to safely enter the apartment.
Police recovered four guns at the theater, including two pistols, a shotgun and what is believed to be an assault rifle, Orr reports. Authorities also recovered a ballistic helmet and a gas mask.
The Century 16 movie theater is located next to the Town Center in Aurora, near I-225 and Alameda.
AMC Theatres Issues Statement Regarding the Tragedy in Aurora, Colorado
Kansas City, Mo. (July 21, 2012, 2 p.m. CDT) - AMC Theatres is deeply saddened by the Aurora tragedy. Movie going is part of our social fabric and this senseless act shakes us to our core. We're reinforcing our security procedures with our theatre teams, which we cannot discuss in detail for obvious, safety reasons. Local law enforcement agencies, our landlords and their and our local security teams are stepping up nationwide to ensure we provide the safest environment possible for our guests. We couldn't be more grateful for their collective support.
At this time, our show schedules circuit-wide will not change. We will not allow any guests into our theatres in costumes that make other guests feel uncomfortable and we will not permit face-covering masks or fake weapons inside our buildings. If guests wish to exchange or refund any tickets, we will honor our existing policy and do as our guests wish. We are taking necessary precautions to ensure our guests who wish to enjoy a movie this weekend can do so with as much peace of mind as possible in these circumstances.

|The Frontier Nursing Service grew out of a need for primary health care in the mountains of eastern Kentucky. Local midwives with no professional training delivered virtually all babies in these rural communities until 1925, when Mary Breckinridge organized the first effort to supply trained nurse- midwives and doctors to mountain people in remote areas. Until this time, most medical treatment was limited to the skills of persons with knowledge of herb and folk remedies. The FNS combined midwifery and family nursing with preventive health care, and in a few years vastly improved the general state of health in the region.
