Mycin Side Effects
Erythromycin, often shortened to "e-mycin" or "mycin," is a drug used to treat a variety of bacterial infections. Users of this medication have reported a number of mild to severe side effects as a result of regular dosing.
Considered a macrolide antibiotic, mycin works by slowing the growth of the bacteria and in some instances killing it completely. According to Drugs.com, the medication works by blocking the production of essential bacterial proteins. In doing so, the bacteria's growth is hindered and often ceases completely. Typical infections that mycin treats include gonorrhea, pinkeye, syphilis and whooping cough.
Serious Side Effects
The use of mycin can lead to the following serious side effects: chest pain, irregular heartbeat, fast or slow heartbeat, lightheadedness, severe nausea, yellowing of the eyes or skin, dark-colored urine, pale stools, and bloody or watery diarrhea. If any of the preceding side effects occur, stop using the medication immediately and seek medical attention.
Less Serious Side Effects
According to Drugs.com, a number of common side effects may occur that are less serious and do not require medical attention. These include: mild nausea, stomach pain or vomiting, headache, dizziness, mild rash or itching, vaginal itching or discharge, and general weakness or tiredness. If any of these side effects worsen or become persistent, call your doctor immediately.
Take mycin exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Never change the recommended dose or length of use. Mycin may be used with or without food, but should always be taken with at least eight ounces of water. If taking mycin in liquid form, shake welly. Store at room temperature away from moisture, heat and light.
If you use mycin beyond the recommended time frame, there is a chance of a second infection. Drugs.com reports that this drug "... may cause a severe form of intestinal inflammation." If you have or have ever had liver disease, contact your doctor before regularly using mycin.

Calling All Pathway Users
Much to the delight of recreationists around the valley, the North Highway 89 pathway, which borders the National Elk Refuge, opens today. The six mile-pathway that cost almost $5 million to construct has been taunting cyclists, runners and walkers ever since its seasonal closure October 1st of 2011. The closure of the pathway, intended to protect migratory elk, stirred controversy around the valley but since portions of the path are located in the National Elk Refuge, officials there had the final say. To commemorate the re-opening of this long awaited path that extends from North Cache to Grand Teton National Park, Friends of Pathways is holding an informal community celebration inviting everyone to lace up their running shoes, inflate bike tires and hop on the pathway. Folks are to meet at 5:30 p.m., today, at the Visitor's Center on Cache. Pathway users should note, however, that the new Grand Teton National Park pathway, which connects with the North Highway 89 path, will remain closed from the Gros Ventre River to Moose until early summer due to construction. - Robyn Vincent

The holidays are a time to get together with family, but for some it can be a lonely season, many of these people are seniors. That's why Home Instead Senior Care wants you to become a Santa to a Senior.
Be a Santa to a Senior is a program to make sure senior citizens in Lincoln have a gift on Christmas morning.
Trees in 17 locations throughout Lincoln held ornaments with the names and Christmas wishes of nearly 1,000 seniors. These wishes are simple, like a blanket or a favorite candy.
This year's deadline was supposed to be December 13th, but two Four Star Drug and Gift Gallery locations have extended the program into the upcoming weekend for the Piedmont and 56th and Old Cheney stores.
You have until 2pm on Saturday to participate at The Piedmont location at 1265 S. Cotner Blvd. The deadline is Sunday at 5pm for the store at 5500 Old Cheney.
It's an easy way to spread holiday cheer to lonely or financially-challenged seniors. For some, this is the only card or gift they will receive all year.
To get involved, just pick an ornament off a tree, buy the items listed and return them, along with the ornament, back to the tree. Home Instead Senior Care will take care of the rest.

Associated Press
MIDDLETOWN, N.J. (AP) - While Superstorm Sandy did highly visible damage to homes, boardwalks and roads, it also walloped the Northeastern fishing industry, whose workers are hoping for a small piece of any future disaster assistance that Congress might approve.
The storm did millions of dollars' worth of damage to docks, fish processing plants and restaurants. But it also caused millions more in lost wages to boat employees who couldn't work for two to three weeks, to truck drivers who had nothing to transport, and to other assorted industries that service commercial fishing.
The $9.7 billion measure to fund the National Flood Insurance program, passed by Congress on Friday, did not include anything for the fishing industry; a bill the Senate passed in December would have allocated $150 million for that purpose.
Some of the worst damage to fisheries in the region occurred at the Belford Seafood Cooperative on the Raritan Bay shoreline in Middletown, where the pounding waves destroyed a 75-foot-long dock, gutted a popular restaurant, and ripped away all five garage doors and parts of the exterior of office and storage buildings. The co-op's manager, Joe Branin, estimates the damage at close to $1 million.
"We went three weeks before we were able to pack a fish," said Branin, whose business was still without electricity in mid-December. "We lost almost all our equipment. It was three weeks before anybody could do anything."
The restaurant, where diners could eat scallops and fillets literally right off the boat, had provided $5,000 to $8,000 a week in revenue that is now gone.
The co-op supported 50 families who either work directly for it or in supporting roles. Many of those workers simply did without a paycheck for weeks afterward. The situation was the same at New Jersey's Viking Village port on Long Beach Island's Barnegat Light, where boats were idled after the storm.
"We couldn't get to work for two weeks because the infrastructure was all torn up here," said Bob Brewster, who owns three of the port's 45 fishing boats and estimates he lost between $10,000 and $20,000 in lost catch. "We were just twiddling our thumbs, waiting to get back out on the water. Everybody wants to make a living, and for a while, we couldn't."
In Hampton Bays, N.Y., Doug Oakland estimated two marinas he owns suffered between $800,000 and $1 million in damage. He estimates about a dozen other marinas in the eastern Long Island community were similarly affected.
"The marinas got beat up pretty hard. There's a 75-foot section of our pier that's just gone," he said.
"There was about three to four weeks right after the storm where all the fish kind of disappeared," he said. "The first two weeks, fishermen couldn't even get out because a lot of their gear was buried in sand. With the gas shortage, there were no fuel trucks, and there really was no market to sell the fish to because nobody had power. There was no sense in even trying to catch them."
Though most of the individual boats up and down the East Coast escaped damage, they were forced to stay at the dock because of a combination of problems.
That included damage to their home ports; torn-up roads that forced street closures and kept workers, truck drivers, and customers from reaching the docks; the disruption to normal fishing patterns after the storm that saw many profitable species chased away until the following year; and even difficulty in getting in and out of ports because of new sand bars.
A strong nor'easter a week after Sandy just made things worse.
"We couldn't get trucks to transport the product," said Dwight Kooyman, who manages two of Viking Village's scallop boats. "I have five guys that work for me that couldn't work that entire time. If they don't work, they don't get paid."
They're all waiting to see whether Congress includes them in the billions of dollars in storm reconstruction aid it is considering. Less than three weeks after the Oct. 29 storm, the U.S. Commerce Department declared a fishery resource disaster for New Jersey and New York. But all that did was authorize the federal government to disburse any aid that Congress approves. Specific plans for applying for and distributing any aid to fishermen still have to be formulated.
Dale Parsons is a fifth-generation fisherman at the Jersey shore, who owns a shellfish business in Tuckerton, and who used to own a commercial hatchery for tiny clams and oysters on the edge of Barnegat Bay _ until Sandy destroyed it, causing several hundred thousand dollars' worth of losses.

fixtures. He was particularly impressive against Arsenal as he and Michael Carrick provided a solid bedrock, allowing the Reds' attacking contingent to carve out an important 1-0 win.
December 2013
The Reds' no.4 continued to make his mark on the United first team during this month. Jones started in six of United's seven opening games in December, effortlessly shifting from midfield to defence throughout the month. His dominant performances led to some proclaiming that Jones could one day be a United captain. First-team coach Phil Neville said: "There will come a time when he has to start leading that back four, start being the Steve Bruce, the Jaap Stam, the Rio Ferdinand, and lead, bring people into position, because he is a leader in the way that he plays. People feed off his enthusiasm and he leads the team. That's his next development now: can he consistently play well, and then can he lead and become United's captain within the next five years? That's the challenge ahead." Sadly for Jones, the month ended on a sour note as a knee injury forced him to miss the final two fixtures of the year.
January 2014
Jones made three appearances in January and claimed an assist against Chelsea, firing a

Due to a recent kickboxing injury, I have now been on crutches for 2 weeks and still have 2 more weeks to go. This is a serious problem for someone like me who has never used crutches and is always active.
I love nothing more than a lazy weekend on the couch watching bad TV, but a full month of it is truly agonizing! Apart from a speedy recovery, my biggest concern is how do I keep on track with my goals for staying healthy?
After 2 weeks on crutches I have learned some helpful tips on how to stay healthy while recovering from an injury.
The first is obvious; speak with your doctor about what is realistic. Your number one priority should be following their advice on how to help your injury heal properly. I am lucky that my knee injury is relatively minor (when compared to something like a broken leg). If your injury requires a longer recovery time, please be smart about getting better. Don't over exert yourself; give your body time to heal.
Second, eating right and sticking to a healthy diet is even more important than ever. Stock up on all your favourite healthy foods. I bought double the amount of everything that I usually get at the grocery store. I then spent the entire weekend preparing all my lunches and dinners for the week. I prepared lots of different fruits, vegetables, proteins and grains and stored them in containers in the fridge. That way, as soon as I made it through the door after work, I was able to make dinner quickly and with plenty of options. This way I am never bored with what I am eating, and it helps me stay on track.
Third, if you've got them, use your crutches. The daily walk to my bus stop and office is a total of 30 minutes on crutches. After only a week, I've noticed that my shoulders, upper back and arms have been getting a great workout. I have been using my pectoral muscle, biceps, deltoids and trapezius much more than I usually do. I did the math and I am burning approximately 300+ calories an hour. Using my crutches regularly has also helped to build my stamina and exert some of that pent-up energy.
Lastly, keep your mind and your hands busy. Trust me; it will help make the time go by much faster. I asked friends to recommend books, puzzles, word games, anything that would keep me busy but resting at the same time. I've even taken up knitting. Try to take advantage of being parked on the couch and turn an unfortunate situation to your advantage.

Food and beverages will also be on sale. There will be nary a moment without some sort of musical accompaniment through the evening, including some soft taps and toots from drums and saxophone.

The two-day celebration, started by Martha and Gerry Ford, attracted crowds in the range of 7,000 people to the Bellarmine University campus for food, Irish Mass and vendors marketing Irish goods. The festival returned in 2003 and 2004, and again in 2006, although this year it's a little different. The Fest has moved from its typical Bellarmine venue to The Belvedere, and it's this Saturday and Sunday. Just as before, there will be an Irish Mass with plenty of food, drink and goodies to buy. And this year there will also be medieval knights and jousters, Irish dancers and an Irish breed dog show.

Shirley's debut collection, "Chinese Architecture" (1986), received the Poetry Society of America's Norma Farber First Book Award and was followed by "Long Distance" (1996).

At a time when artists can use any medium, creating a painting with tar still seems unusual. Not so in the hands of Marco Logsdon, who wields it to produce intensely glowing color. This laborious and time-consuming technique was developed out of experimentation and love of the "happy accidents" achieved through the chemical process. His nonrepresentational art is composed of geometric designs in the style of Abstract Expressionism, reminiscent of Mark Rothko and Sean Scully.

McDonald's Corp., the fast food chain that brought the beef hamburger to the world, is opening its first company-operated vegetarian-only restaurants.
The world's biggest hamburger chain says the locations in India will serve only vegetarian food because of customer preferences in the region. The company could not immediately say when the restaurants would open or how many there would be.
McDonald's says its kitchens in India are already separated into sections for cooking vegetarian and non-vegetarian food and restaurants there do not sell any beef or pork.
They also have menu items that cater to local tastes, such as the Maharaja Mac, which is a Big Mac made with chicken patties.
McDonald's says local franchises in India and other regions may already serve only vegetarian food.

The cost of plug-in electric vehicles is right up there with perceived loss of convenience as a stumbling block for mass adoption of electric vehicles. To help figure out what it will take to climb over the cost hurdle, the U.S. Dept. of Energy would like to hear from you.
In March, President Obama introduced the EV Everywhere Grand Challenge, with the goal of enabling, within 10 years, U.S. companies to produce plug-in electric vehicles that are as affordable to families as other cars on the market. And to be first in the world to do it. Public comments on the EV Everywhere Initial Framing Document must be received by October 29, 2012 at the latest.
The framing document was developed as a means to receive stakeholder engagement in the planning process and then serve as the common framework through public information exchanges and public comment. The document offers some potential combinations of PEVs and charging infrastructures to accomplish EV Everywhere objectives: plug-in hybrids that have a 40-mile all-electric range and then limited fast-charging infrastructure; all-electric vehicles with 100-mile ranges along with access to significant intra- and inter-city fast charge infrastructure; and 300-mile EVs and a whole lot of inter-city fast charge infrastructure.
Questions will be asked to delve in the issues, such as whether the goals of developing PEVs with a payback time less than five years, sufficient range and fast-charging ability is appropriate. The optimal roles of the private sector, government laboratories, and academia in accelerating PEV technology will also be explored. If you want to chime in on these issues, now's the time.
Early versions of the three categories defined for study – plug-in hybrids with 40 mile battery only range, EVs with 100 mile range or 300 mile range and fast charging capabilities – are already on the market. The problem is that their sticker prices are higher than what typical American families consider viable, even when there's access to federal tax incentives and state rebates. Significant levels of fast charging networks are also on the horizon.

Bill of Goods
Senate Bill 58 would prevent foreign or religious laws from being used in stat courts
Published: April 3, 2013
SPONSORED BY: Sen. Alan Hays, R-Umatilla
DATE FILED: Nov. 19
What it says: SB 58 aims to prevent foreign or religious laws from being used in Florida courts in the place of state or federal constitutional laws.
What we say: This is another iteration of the so-called anti-Sharia law that failed to pass muster last year. Though Sen. Hays argues that it's merely a pre-emptive measure meant to clarify legalities specifically in cases of child custody and divorce, the bill has been frowned upon by the Islamic community as a maneuver to inspire more Muslim hatred. The Florida Bar's Family Law Section likewise dismisses the law as unnecessary and confusing. There have never been any cases where the law would actually apply.
Odds of passage: Frighteningly possible. Six other states have gotten away with it – though Oklahoma has suspended its version of the law pending litigation – and the House, which passed the bill last year, is moving its companion bill forward accordingly.

The folks over at Comics-and-More have posted a great review of Ted Naifeh's newest Courtney Crumrin adventure, Courtney Crumrin & The Fire Thief's Tale!
"What we get here is a fun little horror/action number with some great exchanges between the mischievous Courtney and her uncle, and some pretty fantastic moments that I'd say are some of the best of the series. There's also a really great origin story for werewolves that feels mythic and really quite creepy. Ted Naifeh is just a really great storyteller and I'm glad that he's focusing his energies on his great creation once more. A"

New superintendent picked for the Louisville Public School District.
Greg Shepard, currently the high school principal at Ralston, Nebraska, will assume the Louisville district's top administrative post on July 1st, 2011.
The Cassgram reports Ed Kasl, the current superintendent, officially announced his retirement at the September board of education meeting although he had informed the board about a year ago of his intentions. (archives 11/15/10)
A board committee reviewed and interviewed candidates. That resulted in a series of special meetings in the last few days in which five candidates were interviewed and the field narrowed to two before Shepard was hired on a 5 to 0 vote.

Too much time around vampires? That may be the case for True Blood actor Jim Parrack, who recently admitted he like to indulge in drinking a bit of real blood.
After mentioning this at the opening last March of Broadway's Of Mice and Men, Parrack confirmed he wasn't kidding when he reiterated his taste for blood in a recent interview with Vulture.
"I was being literal. I like the real deal," the actor said, but that doesn't necessarily mean he's quenching his thirst every day.

Online Advertising: The Evolution Continues
I was struck last week by several headlines about the continuing growth of online advertising, but none more than this one: "Online Poised to Supplant Newspapers As World's No. 2 Ad Medium." Of course, anyone alive and paying attention this last decade shouldn't be that surprised by the headline.
Unless they're surprised that newspapers are still #2 – they seem so yesterday. But as I considered that the online world is now 15 years old, and that search, the largest and most significant growth driver of online ad spend, is now 10 years old, it did push me to think about what this news might signify about the online advertising industry's evolution. You see, new media platforms (like online advertising, or television before it) behave a lot like other new platforms or technologi... > Read more
Lessons from a Search Startup: Our Journey Through Two Rounds of VC Funding
Let me start off by coming clean and admitting that I've been dying to contribute to the WordStream blog since it debuted about a year ago. As CEO, I certainly could have posted any time I wanted ("it's good to be the king") … but I also have to admit to being intimidated due to the substantive nature of most of our posts and the corresponding readership.
So I couldn't make just any post my first post—it had to be good. I figured the recent announcement of our successful capital raise provided as good an opportunity as any to make a meaningful contribution to the blog and our community of readers.

I am part of a group called The Kraken, who are fans of novelist Russell Hoban (1925-2011). Every year on his birthday, February 4, the Kraken a great thing:
Each of us writes a Hoban quotation on yellow paper (yellow A4 paper figures in his books). Then we leave the paper in a public place—a bar, a bookstore, anywhere—and take a picture of it. The photos and quotations get posted to blogs, websites, and social media outlets.
As far as I know we are the only fans in the world who honor a writer this way.
This is my 2014 quotation:
Dr Jim Long was born in Pennsylvania, and sometimes when his mind is pedalling in busy circles he recalls a thing from his youth. He recalls a drink of water from a mountain spring in the Appalachians. He was hot and sweaty and tired when he came upon a stone trough with water flowing into it from an iron pipe. Cold sparkling mountain water filling the trough from an iron pipe that was beaded with droplets of condensation. There were leaves and sand and tiny crayfish in the bottom of the trough. He plunged his face into the water and drank the best drink he would ever have in his life. The leaves of the trees were stirring in the summer breeze. Everything was more than itself.
—Russell Hoban, Angelica Lost and Found, 2010

November 23, 2014
HURRICANE, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- Garbage. That's what Melissa Shepherd calls the letter from the Ku Klux Klan that was left in her driveway Monday night.
"I just kind of threw mine in the trash," Shepherd said. "I didn't even fool with looking at it. "
Dozens of recruitment flyers were tossed in yards and driveways near Virginia Avenue in Hurricane, leaving neighbors worried about safety.
"I just think about my little boy mainly," Shepherd said. "It scares me. It scares me for him."
Hurricane Mayor Scott Edwards isn't just angry about the content of the letters, but how they were delivered.
"Those type of people, I guess, are just going to try to do it at night," Edwards said. "Throw stuff out of their car, and I guess hope for the best. But what it did, it upset people in Hurricane."
And it may surprise you to hear how he says they broke the law.
"They didn't hurt anybody or hurt anything, it didn't appear," Edwards said. "So really the only crime that was committed here was littering."
For Shepherd, it was the message of racism that was truly shocking.
"Now that I see it out there my eyes are opened that there are still people out there like that," Shepherd said.
She says she wants to make sure her young son understands things like this aren't OK.
"I will have to find a way to talk to him about it, because it's never been a subject for me," Shepherd said.
At the same time, neighbors and police are keeping an eye out for anyone trying to spread hate.
On Tuesday, WSAZ.com called the number listed at the bottom of those letters.
It went to a voicemail, asking for information about the caller, with a promise of a return phone call that would give details on how to join the Klan.
WSAZ.com left a message, asking to talk someone about the recruitment material passed out in Hurricane.
So far, there hasn't been a call back.

Abutilon theophrastii
Mallow family (Mallow family)
Description: This is an annual plant about 2-7' tall that branches occasionally. The stems are terete (circular in cross-section), and pubescent. The alternate leaves are up to 8" long and across (excluding the petioles). They are cordate or orbicular-cordate, slightly dentate along their margins, and more or less pubescent. The primary veins of the leaves are arranged palmately. The petioles are up to 4" long and pubescent as well. The foliage of the entire plant is mostly light green, although the upper surfaces of the leaves are dull green.
From the axils of the upper leaves, there occasionally develops a single flower about ¾" across. It consists of 5 petals that are orange-yellow or yellow, 5 sepals that are pubescent and light green, and numerous stamens with golden yellow anthers that surround the pistil in a loose cluster. The flowering stalk of each flower is about 1" long, which is much shorter than the petioles of the leaves. The blooming period usually occurs from late summer to early fall, and lasts about 1-2 months. The flowers are sparingly produced and short-lived. Each flower is replaced by a fruit about ¾" across. It is initially light green, but rather quickly turns brown or black with maturity. This fruit consists of a ring of about 10-15 flattened seedpods. Each seedpod has a stout beak and contains about 5-15 seeds. Each seed is greyish brown, somewhat flattened, and either reniform (kidney-shaped) or cordate (heart-shaped). The root system consists of a stout white taproot. This plant spreads by reseeding itself.
Cultivation: Velvetleaf is typically found in full sun, mesic conditions, and a fertile soil consisting of loam or clay-loam. The fertility of the soil, particularly the level of nitrogen, has a strong influence on the size of the plant. The seeds can remain viable in the soil for at least 20 years, if not considerably longer.
Range & Habitat: This is a common plant that occurs in most counties of Illinois (see Distribution Map). Habitats include cropland (particularly corn and soybean fields), abandoned fields, vacant lots, construction sites, and waste areas. Velvetleaf typically occurs where the soil has been recently disturbed and the long dormant seeds are brought close to the soil surface. The seeds germinate during warm weather after the spring tilling of fields, and the new generation of plants develops and matures very quickly during the heat of summer, prior to the fall harvest. As a result, Velvetleaf is a major weed of cropland in Illinois. It was introduced into the United States from India as a possible source of bast.
Faunal Associations: The nectar and pollen of the flowers attract various kinds of bees, including bumblebees, leaf-cutting bees (Megachile spp.), miner bees (Melissodes spp.), and Halictid bees. Occasionally, small butterflies and skippers visit the flowers for nectar, while Syrphid flies feed on the abundant pollen. Two insects feed destructively on VelvetLeaf. The caterpillars of Pyrgus communis (Checkered Skipper) make folded-leaf nests from which they feed, while a scentless plant bug, Niesthrea louisianica, feeds on the floral buds, flowers, and seeds.
Photographic Location: A vacant lot in Urbana, Illinois. There is a small black bee visiting the flower in one of the photographs.
Comments: Velvetleaf is a rather tall and lanky plant with large leaves that is easy to identify in the field because there is really nothing else that resembles it. There are other weedy members of the Mallow family that have been introduced from abroad, but they are much smaller plants. Velvetleaf is about as tall as the native Hibiscus spp. (Rose Mallows), but the latter are perennials with darker foliage and much larger flowers. The seeds of Velvetleaf are reportedly edible. In an outdoor emergency, the soft leaves can be used as a substitute for toilet paper.

Updated: July 23, 2012 7:52AM
Teammates, coaches and manager Robin Ventura are raving about the poise of Jose Quintana, the White Sox' 23-year-old, strike-throwing left-hander who has pitched in seven major-league games.
While Quintana wouldn't be the first rookie to make a great first impression before fading, he has shown enough against a series of good teams to convince the Sox he'll endure the test of time. Quintana doesn't look poised because he doesn't know better; he looks poised because he knows he's good.
''Poise comes from confidence, having a great arm and a great delivery,'' bullpen coach Juan Nieves said. ''He has all of those.''
Nieves, who was 22 in 1987 when he became the first Milwaukee Brewers pitcher and native of Puerto Rico to throw a no-hitter, can relate to Quintana. He speaks his language and has stayed close since Quintana arrived at spring training after the New York Yankees let him go, despite his 10-2 record and 2.91 ERA at Class A Tampa in 2011.
Sox scouts Joe Siers and Daraka Shaheed liked Quintana's delivery and ability to command both sides of the plate. So with room on their 40-man roster, the Sox jumped at the opportunity to sign him as a minor-league free agent.
Still, the Sox didn't expect Quintana to be an important piece of their rotation seven months later, with a 1.53 ERA in 351/3 innings and one walk in his last five outings. They remain cautiously optimistic about his future.
''The kid and our player-development and major-league staffs deserve a ton of credit for how he's responded to the opportunity, but it's not like he is a finished product just yet,'' assistant general manager Rick Hahn said.
With the help of pitching coach Don Cooper and Nieves, Quintana now has a four-pitch arsenal. Cooper gave Nieves the assignment of adding a pitch to go with Quintana's fastball, curve and changeup.
''Coop really loved his delivery,'' Nieves said. ''He told me in spring training, 'Show him the cutter.' This kid has taken the cutter to the next level and made it a darned good pitch.''
Quintana's velocity is nothing special (90 to 91 mph), but his command has been. He also is perfecting a sinking, two-seam fastball and improving his changeup.
''He's a quick learner and has a good feel,'' Nieves said. ''It all comes from having a great, repeatable delivery.''
Quintana is pitching without fear. He has impressed teammate Paul Konerko by not backing down from running the cutter in on right-handed hitters.
''He's a left-hander that can really bury the ball in on righties,'' Konerko said. ''There's not a ton of those guys out there.''
There also aren't a ton who can strike out Los Angeles Dodgers slugger Andre Ethier, as Quintana did during his eight scoreless innings Sunday in Los Angeles, on fastballs up and in.
''That is a very tough pitch for lefty-on-lefty,'' Nieves said, ''because you really have to stay on that pitch a long time. He was really able to throw that ball up and in and strike him out a couple of times.''
The Dodgers were the latest in a list of tough opponents for Quintana. He also has performed well against the Cleveland Indians, St. Louis Cardinals, Tampa Bay Rays and Toronto Blue Jays. After he faces the Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday at U.S. Cellular Field, he's scheduled to face the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium.
Poise is required for that kind of schedule, especially for a rookie.
''He's calm, he's serene,'' Nieves said. ''He doesn't get anxious. Mistakes don't bother him. We see it every day in the bullpen and when he pitches. The whole package is coming together. It's wonderful, and he's healthy and fresh. What else can you say? The sky is the limit.''

"In order to provide our customers with the best service and for us to extend our delivery service north, an additional manufacturing facility was needed. We are excited about this opportunity and look forward to supporting the growth of the northern Great Plains and the community of Hartford," she said.
South Dakota's central location, solid business climate and availability of skilled workers made Hartford an ideal location. The state of South Dakota also will provide workforce development funds to help train new employees at the Hartford facility.
With the land purchase agreement signed, officials in Hartford are ready to welcome the new company, which is scheduled to be operational in early 2013.
"On behalf of the City of Hartford, I would like to welcome Central States Manufacturing to our community, and we thank them for selecting our city," said Hartford Mayor Paul Zimmer.
Zimmer said this was a real team effort, citing a partnership among the company, the Governor's Office of Economic Development, Hartford Area Economic Development Corporation, and the City of Hartford.

John Melish. A Geographical Description of the United States, with the Contiguous British and Spanish Possessions, intended as an Accompaniment to Melish's Map of the Countries. Philadelphia: J. Melish, 1816. Second Edition. Octavo. [1]-178 (lacks last leaf). Four single page maps; lacks specimen map at end. As found; original half leather with marbled boards and gold stamping on spine. Ref.: Shaw-Shoemaker, 38220; Walsh, p. 188; Sabin, 47431.
John Melish was the first American publisher to issue exclusively cartographic and geographic items. Born in Scotland, Melish visited the United States several times beginning in 1806, finally deciding to settle here in 1811. Originally Melish intended to go into farming and it was partially to look for good farming land that he traveled over 2,400 miles around the United States before ending up in Philadelphia. While on his travels Melish made copious notes on the lands through which he passed, and in 1812 he published an account of his Travels in the United States of America. This two volume work included eight maps, for as Melish noted in the preface "as I have always considered books of travels to be very defective when unaccompanied by maps, I have spared no labour, nor expence [sic], to have a good set of maps to illustrate this work." These were Melish's first maps and obviously he was inspired by the process of making them, for this was the beginning of his cartographic career. Melish went on to dominate American mapmaking and it was Melish who brought cartography in the United States up to world standards.
In 1815, Melish took the information on travel in the United States which he had compiled and issued it in a compact Traveller's Directory. This consisted of two parts, a geographical description of the United States and a description of the roads throughout the country. This excellent pocket guide was accompanied by four small regional maps of the environs of the four major east coast cities: Boston, New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore. The very large map of the entire United States was never folded into this small book, and the two are seldom find together. The four city maps and the sprightly text about the states, territories, and British and Spanish possessions next to the United States is a fine picture of the country just at the end of the War of 1812. $450

M.L. Simonin. "Le Far-West Américain." In M. Edouard Charton's Le Tour Du Monde. Nouveau Journal Des Voyages. Paris: L. Hachette et Cie, 1868. Quarto. With period binding with wear to edges. Interior with some discoloration and stains, but overall very good condition. With 44 wood engraved illustrations. Denver.
A year of Edouard Charton's travel journal Le Tour De Monde, issued in 1868, including Louis L. Simonin's fascinating account of travels in the American West in 1867. Simonin was a mining engineer who visited Colorado and Wyoming shortly after the Civil War. His account was printed in Charton's magazine complete with forty four wood-engraved illustrations.
The images that accompany Simonin's include maps, scenes of the plains and mountains, Indians, and various towns, including two images of early Denver. Many of the wood engravings are based on photographs and others on 'original sketches.' Many of the illustrations of the Native Americans are of actual individuals or events, though some are made-up, mostly those dealing with Indian attacks and the like. One of the views of Denver, "Une rue de Denver (la rue F)," is a composite image put together by Janet Lange, based primarily on A.E. Mathews' view of F Street, from his Pencil Sketches of Colorado, but interestingly also incorporating elements from Mathews' two other street scenes of Denver.
This is one of the best early accounts of the American West and the images for the most part are excellent, primary material. Among the other articles in the journal are those on western Sudan, the Arctic, the Caucuses, and Rome. $275
Diary of E.Y. Goldsborough, U.S. Marshall in Baltimore for the year 1870. Title page is for "Excelsior Diary for 1870" with wood engraved vignettes showing the four seasons. 12 mo. 108 leaves with hand written entries on almost every page. Very clean in original folding leather binding.
Here is a faithful diarist who made an entry every day, if only to report the weather. Also included in the back is a day by day listing of every payment of moneys. E.Y. Goldsborough's home was in Frederick, Md., but he worked in Baltimore and made many trips around the state and to Washington, D.C. Goldsborough was active in the G.A.R., did some traveling for that organization to New York and Kentucky, and had meetings twice with President Grant and once with Gen. Sherman. He seldom states why he goes to places, but one can tell by the speed of his conveyance that he is using trains. Goldsborough's reactions to the appearance of Baltimore on the day that Gen. R.E. Lee died and his involvement in meetings with "colored people" give a flavor to the political and social happenings of the time. A fascinating diary of one year in the life of a Civil War veteran in Baltimore. $300
Picturesque American Scenery. Boston: Estes & Lauriat, 1883. 4to. Twenty-four steel engravings, with original tissue guards. Engravings in excellent condition. Bound in cloth cover with embossed decorative border and title. Board hinges slightly cracked. Otherwise, firm and in very good condition.
This view book contains, "A series of twenty-five beautiful steel engravings from designs by W.H. Bartlett, George L. Brown, and Thomas Moran, with text by N.P. Willis and others." During the 1870s, view books were in high demand due to the great popularity. The two major popular works of this genre in the nineteenth century were William Cullen Bryant's Picturesque America and N. P. Willis' earlier American Scenery. This book of views and accompanying description and poetic text can be seen as part of this lineage of popular American view books, and it borrows the same format as the earlier publications. It is wonderfully illustrated with twenty-one steel engravings by W.H. Bartlett, and one by Thomas Moran. Bartlett particularly associated with the views which appeared in American Scenery, and these plates are taken from that original publication. These prints were extremely popular from the their first appearance, and they established Bartlett's reputation as the premier 'picturesque' travel artist, a reputation he has retained to this day. $425
Horace Greeley. The American Conflict: A History of the Great Rebellion in the United States of America, 1860-'65 . . .. Hartford: O.D. Case, 1885. 2 vols. Quarto. I: 2l. [9]-648; II: [1]-782 with 12 steel engravings with numerous portraits plus many wood engraved illustrations and maps. With the folded map of the United States and Confederate States titled "Map of the Seat of War" by O.D. Case. Blind stamped buckram spines and covers. Very clean. Slight cracking of front hinge of volume one. Else excellent.
The first edition of Greeley's The American Conflict was published in the years 1865-66. This posthumous printing followed Greeley's failed presidential campaign and death in 1872, and it is witness to Erik Lunde's opinion that this history "remains readable and is still important to Civil War scholars." American National Biography, IX: 469. Few copies have such strong and beautifully printed graphics, the presence of the large folding map in as good a condition as possible, and over all condition is superb. $750
Rudolf Cronau. (1855-1939) Amerika. Die Geschichte seiner Entdectung von der Altesten bis aus die Neueste Zeit. 2 vols. Quarto. Leipzig: Ubel & Muller, 1892. I: [iii]-viii, 480pp., plus 24 full and double pages of prints and maps; II: [iii]-vi, 532pp., plus 31 full and double pages of prints and maps. Original gold stamped red buckram covers and spines. Page ends gilt. Expertly rehinged. Exquisite end pages.
In 1881, Rudolf Cronau (1855-1939) was sent to the United States as a special correspondent for the German newspaper Die Gartenlaube. His assignment was to produce a series of articles documenting American landscapes, cities, Native Americans, and life on the frontier. Cronau traveled all about of the country, writing his articles and producing pen & ink drawings. Upon his return to Germany in 1886, Cronau published, in two parts, a portfolio of collotypes based on his best drawings. Cronau's interest in the United States remained strong and so he produced this illustrated history of America, containing a recapitulation of works from Cortez to Bodmer. The volumes include a number of maps and prints by different artists, but including some of Cronau's own illustrations that appear nowhere else. $650
The American Soldier in the Civil War. The Frank Leslie's Illustrations. New York: Bryan, Taylor & Co, 1895. Folio. Original buckram binding; loose and with considerable wear. With text and "profusely illustrated" with wood engravings. Interior very good.
Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper was one of the two great American weekly newspapers which visually documented the Civil War. Filled with wood engravings based on drawings made on the spot, these newspapers provided front lines images of the events and personalities of the Civil War for many readers around the country. Leslie's included some of the most interesting and authentic images of this war, providing a visual record of the conflict which is of inestimable value. Late in the nineteenth century two volumes were issued using the original blocks from Leslie's accompanied by text written by soldiers and scholars, making these wonderful prints available once again. $350
Frank Leslie's Illustrated Famous Leaders and Battle Scenes of the Civil War. New York: Mrs. Frank Leslie, 1896. Folio. Original buckram binding; some minor wear. With text and "profusely illustrated" with wood engravings. Interior very good.
Another reissue of the Leslie's wood-engraved illustrations of the Civil War. $350
William H. Brown. [Facsimile of] Portrait Gallery of Distinguished American Citizens, with Biographical Sketches and Fac-similes of Original Letters. Hartford: E.B. & E.C. Kellogg, 1845. At back of titlepage is the notice, "This reissue is published by G.A. Baker & Co., New York, 1931." Limited to 600 copies; this one is not numbered.
Frontispiece with portrait of Washington plus 26 other silhouettes and one page, lithographed manuscript facsimile of each man's writing to accompany each of the 27 portraits, 111 pages of text. It has powerful images and fascinating text on each famous American. Howes, B871 gives the quick history of the various editions, including this one. Gold stamped blue buckram binding.
This book contains a rare group of prints taken from silhouettes cut by William Henry Brown (1808-1883), who was one of the most famous and best practitioners of the now almost lost art of silhouette cutting. No later than 1843, Brown contracted with the noted Hartford lithographic firm of E.B. & E.C. Kellogg to issue a number of lithographs based on his silhouettes of "Distinguished American Citizens," and this resulted in a bound volume of these prints. The prints themselves are copyright dated 1844, and so it is not unlikely that they were issued separately beginning at that date. Not only are these fascinating and unusual images of the men shown but the originals are quite rare as well. In an interview in 1874, Brown stated that the bulk of the first edition was destroyed by fire. This was perhaps the November 21, 1854 fire in the bindery of Case, Tiffany & Co., the binders of the portfolio. Some complete editions of the folios and some of the individual prints did survive, but they are very scarce. Here is the later facsimile of off-set reproductions, issued in 1931 which made the images more accessible. $750

Everett Golson ran for a touchdown and threw for two more on Saturday night to help No. 4 Notre Dame beat Boston College 21-6 and keep its national championship hopes intact.
Taking the field one hour after top-ranked Alabama lost to No. 15 Texas A&M, the Fighting Irish (10-0) remained unbeaten and in the hunt for a spot in the BCS title game. And a week after needing triple overtime - and a lot of luck - to get past unheralded Pittsburgh, Notre Dame eased past a longtime rival that had twice before spoiled its hopes of a No. 1 finish.
Brian Kelly acknowledged after the game that the Irish knew the result of the Bama game, but said he isn't worried about the BCS Standings, which will likely slot Notre Dame 3rd behind Kansas State and Oregon.
"We are going to work on winning against Wake Forest and take care of what we can take care," Kelly said after the game. "When it's all said and done, we'll see where we are."
"We really can't waste any of our energy--we see how hard it is to win in college football. We can't worry about those things. We have to focus on what we can do and that's winning on the field. If people don't like us winning, I don't know what else to tell you."
Notre Dame went 95 yards for its longest scoring drive of the season to open the game. Golson capped the drive with his 5th rushing touchdown of the season to make it 7-0. That's the most rushing TD's by an Irish quarterback since 1999.
The Irish were 8-for-8 on 3rd down conversions in the 1st half, including an 8-yard from Golson for a first down in the final minute of the 2nd quarter. The Irish redshirt freshman completed the drive with a 7-yard touchdown pass to Troy Niklas to make it 14-3 Notre Dame at the half. That drive went for 87 yards and last eight minutes and 30 seconds.
Golson completed 16 of 24 passes for 200 yards, also connecting with John Goodman for an 18 yard touchdown on the opening drive of the 3rd quarter.
"We were effective because our quarterback was effective tonight," Kelly explained.
Manti Te'o intercepted his 6th pass of the season, that's the most of any linebacker in Notre Dame history.
"We got frustrated at times--Manti kept guys under control," Kelly explained. "When you need a big play-he's going to be around the football."
Notre Dame returns home for its final home game of the season next Saturday at 3:30 against Wake Forest. The Demon Decons are 5-5.
The Irish wrap up the regular season at USC in two weeks.
