The Batman movie franchise actually began in 1943 with serialized matinees in glorious black and white. Then, the more colorful and cornball 60's Batman TV series spawned a movie that wasted valuable theater time as well. But in modern times, Tim Burton's goth
Batman (1989)
truly started to see the vision--even with the choice of comedic actor Michael Keaton in the lead role, and Jack Nicholson as "The Joker". While still a bit over-the-top, the flick made enough money to get sequels started and Burton returned with villains Catwoman and The Penguin for 1992's
Batman Returns
. But then Warner Bros left us with Joel Schumacher and replacement Batmen Val Kilmer (
Batman Forever - 1995
) and George Clooney (
Batman & Robin - 1997
). With a "flamboyant" director at the helm, the focus became neon and nipples, and too many villains mixed in. A perverted desecration of the batsuit, complete with nipples and codpiece finally killed the franchise. After an 8-year hiatus, Warner Bros rebooted the Bat-films with 2005's
Batman Begins
. Director Christopher Nolan took a more serious take with Christian Bale as Batman/Bruce Wayne. The re-energized franchise led to the biggest comic book movie of all time (currently) with 2008's
The Dark Knight
. As of this writing, the franchise is secure, and several more sequels are guaranteed.

Images: Plumes on Saturn's moon
Summary: The Cassini orbiter cameras capture images from the surface of Enceladus.
1 of 3Image
Cassini shots of Enceladus
Recent images from the Cassini orbiter and its and its two onboard cameras show Saturn's moon Enceladus. The images, backlit by the sun, show the fountain-like sources of the fine spray of material that towers over the south polar region.
This image was taken looking more or less broadside at the "tiger stripe" fractures observed in earlier Enceladus images. It shows discrete plumes of a variety of apparent sizes above the limb of the moon.
Enceladus is a target of intense interest to Cassini mission scientists. Its wrinkled and frozen crescent is seen here with Saturn's rings. The planet's dark shadow bisects the ringscape.
The illuminated terrain seen here is on the moon's trailing hemisphere. The image was taken in visible green light with the Cassini narrow-angle camera on Oct. 13, 2005 at a distance of approximately 1.2 million kilometers (700,000 miles) from Enceladus.

10 Health Foods That Don't Taste Terrible
Contrary to what you may believe, you don't always have to sacrifice flavor for nutrition. Here are 10 foods that prove eating right never tasted so good.
Follow 9 / 11
8) Greek yogurt
It's likely that this delicious snack is already a staple in your diet, but it would be wrong to leave it off this list. Non-fat Greek yogurt is creamy, decadent, and amazing for your body. On average, one eight-ounce serving offers up nearly 20 grams of muscle-feeding protein. You can eat it plain if you like, but the beauty of Greek yogurt lies in its versatility. From fresh fruit, to seeds and nuts, to honey or cinnamon, your add-in options are endless.

Extreme couponing is a great way to save money for those looking to save like crazy. Skateboarders have taken extreme couponing to the next level. What they are doing now is taking as many coupons as they can out of every coupon book they can find and skating through the store on a timed fashion in order to get through their coupons In the shortest amount of time. Most skateboarders are using coupons similar to a buyskateshoes coupon.
Extreme couponing has become a revolution and is taking off around grocery stores everywhere. Skateboarders are becoming reckless in their actions and people are starting to get injured. Since the beginning of the month when this thing started every week another person has been injured. Sales are going up faster than ever in grocery stores but revenue is actually going down. Some managers have tried to stop the boarders in many failed attempts so they have given up efforts. The police have gotten involved but are overwhelmed in most locations due to the fact that there are too many locations to keep ahold of. Store marketing directors are talking about canceling all coupons in an effort to stop the tyrants but many people have a big issue with this as couponing is the way they maintain a budget.
If you are out shopping and you want to stay safe be sure to recognize any skateboarders in the area. Suspects usually are seen wearing adios skate shoes. Beware of isles that are not level as this is where boarders have been seen to partake in the most activity. Stay clear of stairs and escalators when possible and opt for the elevator. If you see a skateboarder alert the authorities as soon as possible for you safety. For the time being try to avoid all stores until further notice.

not sure there's 'go-to' anything around the $10 price point. try american apparel on heavy discount or goodwill with your favorite lucky charm.
also, you should break up your cardboard box and go get a job.

I invested in my first pair of proper grown up boots about 4/5 months ago and just wanted to check when should they be resoled. They seem to have 3 or 4 different layers of sole and i wasn't sure which layer would be the point of no return so to speak. is it the layer i'm currently working through or can i keep wearing them once I'm walking on the darker layer? sorry for the bad photo, best I could do

@ Gorm That second layer is a framing. If you plan to resole those you'll not want to hit that layer unless you really want to pay an arm and a leg as well as sound like a women who can't walk in heels while you clop around like a horse. Considering it is your first pair of grown up boots as you said, asking your local cobbler to form and stick a rubber sole is a bit different then asking for a new heel frame AND sole.
@ BlackSamurai30 You have to try on some different brands. Sporting some skinny jeans is all about accenting without looking like you are smuggling plums or have a constant wedge. I swear by a pair of bullheads for denims because of my build. (I have the build of a boxer.)
My first post and recent change of style choices for the new year. I recently changed from print shirts with solid shoes and ties to solid chalky colors and shoes like these.I would like the opinions of others outside my Appalachian paradise on wearing these as an accent anywhere else.
In my line of work I teeter the lines of informal business, I must make a bold statement and absolutely cannot look stuffy and aged. I breath new air into old businesses and must take on the appearance of "change" or "this is now."
Sometimes I feel they are over the top but I love the fading dual tone and compliments I get keep them on my feet.
Question is Can I get away with these outside of my home base?

Tailoring Suit Pants Q.
I bought a suit about 12 months ago from J.Crew. The pants i got were waist 33 regular fit.
I've lost a lot of weight since then and now i wear waist 32 slim fit.
So the 33 regular fit is very loose at the waist and baggy around the thighs.
How feasible/costly is it to ask my tailor to convert the 33 regular fit into 32 slim fit?

Arizona Cardinals
John Abraham shines in preseason debut with Cardinals
When John Abraham signed a one-year deal on July 25, Arizona Cardinals general manager Steve Keim hoped he'd bring an instant level of credibility to the team's pass rush.
Just two weeks later, the 35-year-old outside linebacker certainly didn't disappoint in his debut with the team.
On the first play of the second quarter in the Cardinals' preseason opener Friday night, Abraham, who had 10 sacks with the Atlanta Falcons in 2012, stripped Green Bay Packers quarterback Graham Harrell at Arizona's 47-yard line.
The football was recovered by Sam Acho, and the Cardinals followed up the turnover with a 52-yard touchdown drive.
"You know, for me it is preseason. It is more just cut and dry, get into shape and just play football, like I usually do," Abraham said at halftime. "Doing that just helps the team out and helps them see that I have a little something left. For me, it is just about playing football right now."
Abraham finished the night -- albeit in limited action -- with one tackle, one sack and one forced fumble.
Not bad, not bad at all.
"I felt pretty good," Abraham said of his night. "I didn't get as many plays as I wanted to but it is the first game. I felt comfortable. I think the first drive was bad for, letting them get down the field on us. But we were able to hold them at the end. But this is more for the young guys, this first game. The second and third games are more for us."

Pirates of the Caribbean 4 Reviews: Awful!by Hilton Hater at . Comments
Captain Jack Sparrow is back.
But is that really a good thing? Following two subpar follow-ups to one of the most enjoyable films of all-time, Johnny Depp has reprised his beloved role in Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides - and critics don't seem very happy about it.
Read on for a rundown of their scathing critiques...
If you want to burden your movie from the outset, give it a protagonist who can't grow, can't change, can't feel and wants nothing. Then give Depp total license to mug his way out of this confinement. - The San Francisco Chronicle
Depp, back again as the swashbuckling miscreant who favors guy-liner and gold, somehow manages to keep this ship of fools afloat. But just barely. - The Los Angeles Times
There's enough of Jack doing his wild hand gestures and lucking his way into the story that Depp fans will dig it. These Stranger Tides lead to a shallow pool, but sometimes a nice wading session might be all you require. - E! News
There's little if anything here to keep us emotionally invested, and so the pile-it-on mutinies and sword fights and perilous dives off vertiginous cliffs exist just to wow us. - The Philadelphia Inquirer
this movie is not a prequel as keith said, barbossa had his leg before as you recall.
i loved the movie.
we went and saw this the first day it came out and i LOVED it. i will never ever listen to critiques because alot of times they are wrong and they are this time to me.
I really liked the movie and I do not know why it got bad reviews it was great for me.
i saw pirates 4 it was ok i guess but i've seen way better pirate movies. they could do a whole lot better.
I have a review of overly negative critics, they all suck. Go watch some subtitled foreign crap I'll take the "Pirates" franchise myself.
I just saw Pirates 4. Jack Sparrow does it for me, however, I did not think he had the chemistry, the spark, with Penelope Cruz. I will see it again and again until I can purchase the DVD. Can't wait for Pirates 5.

This movie is another geat episode of the Pirates. Critics put it down, but think the producers and actors of the movie will laugh all the way to the bank! Our whole family, kids, and grandkids attend the opening of every movie. We were not disappointed, but thrilled again. Ready for another one, with hopes Orlando and Keira will return. But the characters in this movie helped to make you not miss them so much.
I just saw the new Pirates movie and I think it was one of the best ever. Definetly see it in 3D, awesome special effects. Johnny Depp, as usual, was excellent in the role of Capt. Jack Sparrow. I did have my doubts about how good this movie would be since a lot of the original cast was not in it, but me and my son absolutely loved it and plan on seeing it again. Do not listen to the critics, I never do, you have to see it yourself and then decide. This is a must see!
I watched the movie with my husband and two kids and we all absolutely loved it. If you go to the theatre, make sure to stay until all the credits are played because they give a hint to the next sequel. Don't listen to the critics. I love Johnny Depp and the pirates of Caribbean series, so we were all eagerly antcipating the release. First, I was so glad that bloom was not in this movie. I hate bloom's acting/looks/everything about him is annoying to me...I must be the only one in the world that hates bloom. I loved the Mermaid's and it looks like they are going to be a part of a second triology that is being formed right now. Maybe a final series after this triology is done to bring all the old characters. Johnny Depp was amazing as ever and as always left me wanting more.

possibly active inspire which is the promethean software although you will need to check licensing around it.
its not hundreds of £ per subject its more thousands isn't it!
We have a load of Polyvision eno boards in our school, and a load of Macs. The boards work fine with the basic pen / drawing tools, however, I am trying to research what software is available to allow teachers to author snazzy content for the boards.
What do you use? Do you just use PowerPoint? What's the best way to create content rather than handing over hundreds of pounds to Boardworks, per subject?
Any steering in the right direction on this would be greatly appreciated.

Haven't got around to using it in anger yet, but Sankore is open source and looks very nice. It's available for the Mac too... Sankoré
Have you not got Wizteach free with boards?
We use Promethean ActivInspire. Its free it you have any of their hardware, we have 102 ActivBoards. As for the resource packs per subject there are a lot cheaper and better alternatives out there. Thats if you need them at all. The IWB themselves are excellent and the educational warranty include replacing the projector bulbs.
Only problem is the frequent updates seem to fix one thing and break two others. The ActivManager (drivers etc) software is better than the old collection of drivers.
Thanks guys. We had Wizteach but it was the Windows version supplied with the boards. I contacted their support and they said that the codes would work with the Mac version, we'd just need to download it.

Emirates airline will start Seattle-Dubai flights
Emirates, the giant and fast-growing Middle Eastern airline, will begin daily nonstop flights between Dubai and Seattle-Tacoma International airport on March 1.
Seattle Times aerospace reporter
Northwest travel guides
Emirates, the giant and fast-growing Middle Eastern airline, will begin daily nonstop flights between Dubai and Seattle-Tacoma International Airport on March 1, the airline announced Wednesday.
The move will offer travelers a new option from Seattle to destinations in the Middle East, Asia and Africa via the airline's hub in Dubai, which is one of the United Arab Emirates.
The airline flies to more than 100 destinations from Dubai, including multiple cities on the Indian subcontinent as well as major cities in China, Japan and Korea.
Flights will leave Dubai daily at 09:50 local time and arrive at Sea-Tac at 1:10 p.m. Pacific Time. With the 12-hour time difference, that's a flight of 15 hours and 20 minutes.
From Seattle, flights will leave at 5:10 p.m., arriving in Dubai at 7:40 p.m. the next day, a slightly shorter flight of 14 ½ hours.
Emirates will use a roomy Boeing 777 for its Seattle flights. The largest operator of 777s in the world, the airline last year ordered an additional 30 of the jets, bringing its total 777 passenger-fleet commitment to 132 aircraft.
The carrier is a premium service airline, promising high standards of passenger comfort, with "luxurious private suites in First Class, lie-flat beds in Business Class and generously-sized Economy Class seats."
The Seattle route opening is part of an expansion in the U.S. this year.
Emirates already flies into Houston, New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco, as well as Toronto, Canada. Starting in February, it will add Dallas-Fort Worth.

JomFacebookChat +Plus
1.0.1 (last update on Nov 13, 2012)
GPLv2 or later
Paid Download
29 February 2012
JomfbChat is a chat "Facebook like" for the Joomla! CMS evolved on the basis of the numerous requests received in year 2011. The component is delivered in native release for Joomla 1.5, and 2.5, the 2.5 version is also working for Joomla! 1.6 and 1.7.
For every need simply use the functionality of ticketing and will be given timely responses!
The service lasts one month from the date of purchase.
The component JomfbChat +Plus and Professional are, in functionality, completely analogous between versions 1.5, 1.6, 1.7 and 2.5 of Joomla!.
For the front end you can choose different languages (Italian, English, French, German, Spanish, Dutch, Hungarian, Greek) explicitly from the component configuration, while the back end is translated from the selected language pack in Joomla! Within available languages: Italian, English, Spanish and German.
Jomfb Chat Professional integrates all the features of the Plus version and Free, the Plus includes only the features of the Free.
Features JomfbChat Professional:
- files transfer between users with Drag and Drop HTML5 feature (if supported),
- integrated avatar management with re-size/crop,
- automatic avatars generation if none provided by users,
- contacts managements with possibility to create users relations,
- advanced users list management with possibility to choose (in the admin area) the users recordset; it's now possible include also logged out users, own contacts, friends or join these,
- public messages in a "WALL like" mode,
- chat conversation exporting feature in text format,
- avatars real-time refresh to any image update also for already received messages,
- possibility to choose (in administration) the display of user name or full qualified name also in avatars pop up,
- automatic links recognition,
- advanced component configuration: you can configure the chat to suite all your needs, for ex. you can disable avatars upload or you can define the file maximum size...

- Jomsocial integration,
- Community Builder integration,
- Emoticons with option to select image directly from the pop-up or write the shortcut
- multitabs chat session
- no advertising,
- test audio (and much more).
I used to use CometChat, but it didn't work with my iOS devices. The chat bar was also fixed and scrolled with the text, often blocking content. Now, the chat bar stays right where it is supposed to be and everything works very well.
Reviews: 16
Worked Out of the Box.
Integrates nicely with Jomsocial
1 suggestion would be tho to give back end more control over color of actual component as visible on front end, instead of requiring modification of the source to do so.
The price is very fair. However, it would be better if they include how to modify the chat software visually with the download and not a la carte. Luckily, I did not need to buy it but there are some Joomla users that are not familiar with how to edit those options.
I would recommend this extension to other users. I did look at their competitors and this one is (in my opinion) one of the best ones for the features and seamlessness it offers.

As a jazz journalist every once in while you stumble upon a nice surprise, a young musician that let's you know that jazz is alive and well. Rochester born, now living in New York City, trumpet player Mike Cottone is one of this year pleasant surprises.
With a Masters degree at Julliard School, Cottone is a musician with a clean expressive tone and a style that is savvy, cool and refreshing, yet well connected to the jazz tradition. Cottone is also an outstanding composer as can be appreciated on "Just Remember", "Old Blue", "Gyroscope", "Sloppin" and "I'm sure". Ingenious compositions that have elements of bebop, cool jazz, hardbop and smooth jazz.
Just Remember close with excellent interpretations of the swinging Freddie Hubbard classic "Dear John" and the Hoagy Carmichael ballad"Stardust".
Musicians: Mike Cottone - trumpet, flugelhorn, Jeremy Viner - tenor saxophone, Kris Bowers - piano, Paul Sikivie - bass, Jared Schonig - drums, Ulysses Owens Jr. - drums (2,3,6,7)
Tracks: Just Remember, Selah, Old Blue, Slow Down, Gyroscope, Sloppin, I'm Sure, When Sunny gets Blue, Dear John, Stardust

SUNNYVALE, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 12/05/12 -- Juniper Networks (NYSE: JNPR), the industry leader in network innovation, and the Economist Intelligence Unit released findings today from a recent global survey, which revealed that over half of businesses surveyed primarily rely on IT departments to increase efficiency of their operations. But IT is largely falling short of expectations to drive business growth in new areas. The survey of 474 respondents spanned Germany, Japan, the U.K. and the United States. Fifty-one percent of respondents are C-level and board members and the remaining are senior executives and managers.
The survey showed, that of all respondents, the highest-performing companies -- those who report their financial performance is stronger than their industry peers -- identify a different role for IT in key areas of their business. Compared to their peers,
- 20 percent more of the high-performing companies say technology played a very strong role in their organization's financial performance
- 11 percent more of the high-performing companies strongly agree that the IT function can support business growth by identifying new market opportunities
- Eight percent more of the high-performing companies say the IT function is very closely involved in helping develop new products and services
Today, businesses are rushing to keep up with exponential data growth and meet fast-changing market needs for digital services. Financial institutions are delivering mobile banking applications while gaming companies are rebuilding their game catalogues as online services. As companies rush to deliver these new services, IT has an opportunity to play a role advancing these new business initiatives.
While most IT departments are not yet widely seen driving business growth, the companies surveyed predict the role of IT will begin shifting from tools of efficiency to engines of growth. Sixty percent of respondents report IT will be very closely or somewhat closely involved in helping to develop new products or services for the company over the next three years.
Importantly, survey respondents predicted the top technology trend that would impact the competitiveness of their business was collaboration and information sharing through networks.
Additional Key Findings Include:
IT Perceptions and Expectations
- When asked about the IT functions' main strengths, the top response (42 percent) was "efficient execution of general business processes."
- Today, one in five (20 percent) respondents report that IT is only somewhat prepared or very unprepared to contribute to improved business growth.
- Very few business respondents successfully collaborate with IT on strategic business imperatives such as identifying new market opportunities (nine percent), identifying new innovations (six percent) or developing a competitive strategy (five percent).
Disruptive Technologies
- Global respondents predict the top technology investments over the next three years will be business information analysis (33 percent), followed by business process management (31 percent), cloud computing/virtualization (29 percent) and mobile devices (26 percent).
- Respondents report the top technology trends influencing the competitiveness of their organization over the next three years include collaboration and information sharing through networks (31 percent), the widespread availability of mobile devices (31 percent), and the ubiquitous nature of connected devices and integrated systems (27 percent).
Supporting Quotes:
"We must embrace disruptive technologies such as cloud and mobile that are propelling business growth to create an opportunity for IT to step out of a support function into a more strategic role. By creating new products and services and identifying new market opportunities, IT can truly transform and technologically enable the business."
- Bask Iyer, senior vice president and chief information officer, Juniper Networks
"Businesses still view the IT function in the traditional role of improving process efficiency. However, to really take advantage of an increasingly digitized world, companies need to recognize the potential value of IT as a collaborative partner in identifying new opportunities."
- Rozina Ali, deputy editor, Economist Intelligence Unit

If you look into the details of what comprises the IoT, you'll see that it includes everything from cloud computing, Big Data analytics, "Things," Web communication, applications, network, storage, etc. It is essentially including everything connected online from hardware to software, or as we like to say, it's an Internet of many different things.

The security devil is always in the details of the attack: the ones you've endured, the ones you prepare yourself to fend off, and the ones that, you fear, will catch you completely unaware and defenseless. The Internet of Things (IoT) is nothing if not an endless proliferation of details. It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons. In the IoT vision, every new "thing" - sensor, actuator, data source, data con...

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Right to protect Libyans?
It should be clear by now the United Nations and the world's major powers just do not have the stomach for difficult decisions, which shouldn't come as much of a surprise.
The response to the Libyan crisis has been largely confined to hot air and lame excuses about the risks of intervention, or how difficult it is to establish no-fly zones.
It's not that the legal and moral framework for action doesn't exist -- it's called Responsibility to Protect (R2P), a code of international conduct for the 21st century approved by the UN five years ago. But so far, no one wants to talk about it, or the fact it was formulated in the aftermath of the 1994 Rwandan genocide, when the world watched silently as 800,000 people were slaughtered because they belonged to the wrong tribe.
The problem in the past was the absence of a process that would permit a military force to violate a state's sovereignty when it was abusing or neglecting its own people.
The Nazis, for example, could have killed all of Germany's Jews with impunity if Hitler had confined his aggression to his own people. The world would have stood by and done nothing.
Despite the lessons that should have been learned following the Holocaust, however, no legal basis was established to stop a sovereign state from implementing genocidal policies against its own people, except the will and strength of moral leadership, qualities always in short supply.
The doctrine of R2P, however, permits the United Nations to authorize appropriate and proportional responses to humanitarian crises in sovereign states when the leadership of those states is incapable of helping, or where it is the perpetrator.
The doctrine also revised the meaning of sovereignty by making members of the UN responsible for the health and welfare of their people, and accountable to the world body for any abuse or neglect.
It marked the end, in theory, of an international tradition that began with the Treaty of Westphalia (1648), which declared the absolute independence of states governed by a sovereign.
Following 30 years of war, the European powers had agreed to respect the sovereignty of nations and the concept of territorial integrity.
In reality, it ushered in a new era of rivalry, except when it came to a country's desire to punish Catholics, disenfranchise Jews, or commit some other outrage against people within its sovereign borders.
So why has no political leader even uttered the words "Responsibility to Protect" during the Libyan crisis? There are several possible reasons.
First, the war in Afghanistan is still fully engaged with no certainty of a good outcome. The Iraq War is over, sort of, but with nearly 40,000 American casualties alone, the stomach for more fighting is probably not very strong. Moreover, if foreign troops did land in Tripoli, how long would they have to stay before the situation sorted itself out? No one wants to get involved in a prolonged and messy occupation.
There's also the concern that armed intervention to establish safe zones or no-fly zones might also hurt the revolutionary spirit in Libya and across the Middle East by making it appear like an American-led uprising for political and economic gain.
Most revolutions in history, however, have endured third-party intervention without harmful effect. France, for example, helped the Americans in their revolt against King George III without hurting the revolutionary spirit.
The doctrine of R2P does not mean the UN must authorize armed intervention, but Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi needs to know it is a possibility, particularly if the violence escalates.
The American, British, French and even Canadian general staffs undoubtedly already have prepared plans for intervention in the event their political masters decide they have no other option.
Unfortunately, judging by the lackadaisical response so far, the bloodshed will have to get much, much worse before the world's leaders feel they can no longer look themselves in the mirror.
Intervention is controversial both when it happens and when it does not. Everyone can agree that 800,000 Rawandan victims was too many (sorry for that) but is 1,000 in Libya not enough to justify a response? R2P is not a panacea, but it is an idea that at least offers a vision of how a moral world order might work.

Since its first title was released in 2000, more than half of RedLynx's 25 published games have been Trials-related – and that should tell you something. For those who enjoy stunt biking but would prefer occasional stints of low-gravity, higher altitudes, more explosions, and more futuristic landscapes, Trials Fusion will be worth a look.
In the summer of 2009, I had trouble finding a reason to turn on my Xbox 360. Nothing grabbed me, not on the marketplace, and not on disc. Then came Microsoft's second annual Summer of Arcade event, which featured a handful of games to be released through the summer months (as one would expect with a title like that). One of the games released was called Trials HD – and it grabbed me. And then flung me into a deep pit at the end of a level.
At its heart, Trials falls into the racing genre, but it's far more than just racing. In any one of the games, you can expect truly bizarre events one moment, and then a simple race from A and B the next. I had a lot of fun with Trials HD, and likewise with Trials Evolution. With Trials Fusion, I can honestly say that this is a series that gets better with age.
Trials Fusion falls into the category of games I like to call "patience testers". These games start off easy, and lead you to believe that you're a Sensei at the art of stunt-biking. Then, without warning, the game will grab you by your neck, and make you sweat. Some levels or "tests" are so difficult, that you'll probably find yourself resetting the track, or reverting to a checkpoint, a countless number of times. I can also guarantee that your hands are bound to hurt after a while.

The Astros' No. 1 prospect doubled twice and stole home as Double-A Corpus Christi defeated Midland, 9-3.
After smacking his second double with nobody out in the third inning, Singleton advanced to third base on Brandon Barnes' sacrifice fly. Following Kody Hinze's strikeout, Jordan Kreke drew a walk, setting the stage for the double steal that gave the Hooks a 3-1 lead.
Singleton, who scored twice, is not known for his speed, as he is 14-for-26 in stolen base attempts during his four Minor League seasons. Prior to Monday, he had never stolen home.
The California native has proven to be as good as advertised with the bat since Houston acquired him from Philadelphia on July 29, 2011 for Hunter Pence. Singleton is batting .333 with eight extra-base hits and eight RBIs in 16 games for the Hooks. He is currently tied for fifth in the Texas League in the batting race and fourth in the league with 14 runs scored.
Barnes homered and drove in four runs, giving him a league-leading 18 RBIs, while Kreke scored twice for the Hooks.
Michael Choice, Oakland's No. 2 prospect, was 2-for-3, raising his average to .254 for the RockHounds.

Suisham also misfired on an onside kick with a minute left, striking a line drive that would have made Andrew McCutchen proud rather than a bouncer that could have given his team a chance to recover.
Suisham should have had one more extra point in the game, but a mishandled snap led to an impromptu two-point conversion thrown by the placeholder. Suisham hasn't attempted a field goal in either of his last two games, but that's what happens when your quarterback averages six touchdowns a game. The Steelers are set to face the Jets in Week 10.
He'll face the Colts in Week 8.
The five points were a season low for Suisham. The Steelers are back in action Week 6 at Cleveland.
Suisham clanked one off the left upright at the end of the first half and the team lost by three. He had already nailed a 25-yarder in the first quarter and was perfect three extra-point tries.
Novak has connected on all six of his field-goal attempts this season, and gets to face the Jaguars Sunday. Carpenter faces the Texans having made a league-high nine field goals in 10 tries. Suisham has yet to miss on eight tries, and is 4 for 4 from 40 yards heading into Sunday against the Buccaneers.
Suisham plays the Bucs in Week 4.
Suisham received just two field goal oppotunities, hitting from both 25 yards and 43 yards during the contest. The Steelers were held out of the end zone, so Suisham did not have an opportunity to add any extra points.
Suisham will take on the Panthers Week 3.
Suisham opened the scoring as well with a 36-yarder five minutes into the game. He was also perfect on three extra-point attempts. He will seek to keep up the good work Thursday night against the Ravens.
This has been Suisham's best season, as he finished with a career-high 129 points whiel connected on 93.8 percent of his field goals, also a career-high.
Suisham visits Green Bay in Week 16.
Suisham is 24 of 26 on field-goal attempts this season but hasn't attempted one since Week 12. The Steelers face the Bengals in Week 15.
Suisham has still missed just two field goals, as he enters Week 14 against the Dolphins 24 of 26 on the season.
Suisham hit from 21, 25 and 34 yards during the game. The team had a strong offensive day, and Suisham was also able to hit four extra point attempts. He'll look for more against the Browns Week 12.
Suisham hit a 30 yard attempt in the second quarter, opening up the scoring for Pittsburgh. Suisham also managed to hit all four of his extra point attempts. On every non-touchdown scoring drive, the Steelers fizzled out in their own territory.
Suisham will look for more action Week 10 against the Bills.
"I have a great deal of confidence in Shaun," Tomlin said. "He's been a quality guy for us and we look forward to him bouncing back."
Suisham 4 for 4 in field goal attempts and 1 for 1 in extra point attempts, finishing with 13 points in a 19-16 win. He has yet to miss a field goal this season.
The Steelers host the Ravens in Week 7.
Suisham went 2 for 2 on field goals and 3 for 3 on PATs. His long field goal was just 28 yards for the Steelers. Pittsburgh has a bye Week 5 and returns Week 6 against the Jets.
Suisham plays the Bears in Week 3.
Rookie running back Le'Veon Bell (foot) remains out while cornerback Curtis Brown (illness), defensive tackle Steve McLendon (hamstring) and kicker Shaun Suisham (hamstring) were all full participants in practice.
The Steelers will play Monday night in Cincinnati.
"We are going to work him out at the later part of the week to determine his availability," Tomlin said. "In the meanwhile we will work with Shayne Graham. I think the extra day of work is going to help us in some of these areas."
Suisham could be questionable for Week 2 at Cincinnati. The kicker scored one point in the 16-9 loss Sunday. He did not get a field goal try.

Lancaster seeks to harness home advantage
ESPN Staff
December 4, 2012
Chris Robshaw targets progression from the pool%]
England boss Stuart Lancaster is keen to utilise home advantage in the 2015 World Cup but any decision over where his team will play is out of his hands.
England were drawn in a challenging pool for the 2015 showpiece and will face both Australia and Wales in three years time. With the fixtures and venues set to be announced in March, the Welsh Rugby Union has already made an audacious bid to stage their two fixtures against England and the Wallabies at the Millennium Stadium.
England Rugby 2015, the tournament organising body, refused to rule out the possibility that Lancaster's team could have to play their crunch pool fixture against Wales in Cardiff. The Rugby Football Union and Lancaster's management will have limited sway when it comes to deciding but England want to be at Twickenham and take advantage of the same sort of atmosphere that they experienced against the All Blacks on Saturday.
"Clearly from our point of view Twickenham would be our preferred venue," Lancaster said. "Before the All Blacks game I was asked about the haka and said that we'd respect it as a cultural ritual but it was also true we had 82,000 people behind us.
"We certainly felt that in the stands and I am sure the boys felt it on the pitch. It was an unbelievable atmosphere. It was a special day. What home advantage did for the Olympians is a great example of how it inspires people to an extra five or 10% and sometimes at this level that's what's needed.
"It's massive for England to have the World Cup here. For the game in general, so many people who will benefit from the tournament which will last way beyond 2015."
And Lancaster's view was echoed by skipper Chris Robshaw. "Of course we want to be at Twickenham and have home advantage - 80,000 people shouting you on and cheering you on," Robshaw said. "We speak about the power of the nation behind us and we definitely felt it on Saturday. If we can get to those standards it will be great."
RFU chief executive Ian Richie also called for the match against Wales to be staged in England. "We appreciate the kind offer and it's a lovely place to go and play rugby but we have a nice stadium of our own," Ritchie told the BBC ."We think it's a great place to come and play rugby as well. It's not purely an RFU decision, the Rugby World Cup board look at it, all sorts of considerations need to happen. But obviously we would be extremely keen to play the match here and think that we can provide a great setting for a great game."

A mother has been arrested for the habitual truancy of her two children, police said.
Mandy Patch, 34, of Center Ossipee, was arrested and charged with two counts of duty of parent: compulsory attendance by pupil.
Police allege that Patch failed to make her children attend school in a timely manner during the 2012-2013 school year.
Her two children, police said, have both been absent or late more than 40 days this school year at the Governor Wentworth School District.
