WILLIAMSPORT, PA - The Universal All Stars just want to play baseball. It's been an incredible experience that they will never forget, and the boys have yet to play a ballgame in Williamsport, PA.
Team bats, batting gloves, cleats, uniforms, media interviews, parades -- hanging out with teams from Japan, Australia and Latin America -- those are just some of the incredible moments Universal has experienced in their first few days at the Little League World Series. And there are plenty more to come.
As second baseman RJ Cortez put it: "excited, pumped up, ready for the game tomorrow."
The boys are ready to take on Samammish, WA (the Northwest representative) in the first game of the United States bracket.
"We're nervous and excited because it's the first game of the United States," left fielder Juan Jasso said.
Coach Randy Ramirez has been preaching to the kids all week -- one game at a time -- and it's just baseball. The kids are relaying that same message.
"Just play your heart out from first pitch to last pitch," third baseman Jesus Ortiz said. "We're trying to win our first game and not worry about any other games, just that one."
That one -- is set for Thursday at 2pm central time against the Northwest. Universal (Southwest) will play again on Saturday or Sunday, depending on the outcome of game one.

The depth of a burn determines its severity. First degree burns damage the outer layer of skin (epidermis) and cause pain, redness and swelling (erythema). Second degree burns damage the epidermis and the inner layer, the dermis, causing erythema and blistering. Damage from third degree burns extend into the hypodermis, causing destruction of the full thickness of skin with its nerve supply (numbness). Third degree burns leave scars and may cause loss of function and/or sensation.

Werner Vogels, CTO of Amazon has mentioned in his blog that DynamoDB is a fully managed NoSQL database service that provides fast performance at any scale. Today's web-based applications often encounter database scaling challenges when faced with growth in users, traffic, and data. With Amazon DynamoDB, developers scaling cloud-based applications can start small with just the capacity they need and then increase the request capacity of a given table as their app grows in popularity. Their tables can also grow without limits as their users store increasing amounts of data. Behind the scenes, Amazon DynamoDB automatically spreads the data and traffic for a table over a sufficient number of servers to meet the request capacity specified by the customer. Amazon DynamoDB offers low, predictable latencies at any scale. Customers can typically achieve average service-side in the single-digit milliseconds. Amazon DynamoDB stores data on Solid State Drives (SSDs) and replicates it synchronously across multiple AWS Availability Zones in an AWS Region to provide built-in high availability and data durability.
It already has SimpleDB as its NOSQL offering wich apparently comes with scaling limitations and with growing demand for NOSQL and BigData its not a surprise that Amazon had been building and testing this already from a while.
Vogels has said that DynamoDB NoSQL database service offers the following benefits:
Managed. DynamoDB frees developers from the headaches of provisioning hardware and software, setting up and configuring a distributed database cluster, and managing ongoing cluster operations. It handles all the complexities of scaling and partitions and re-partitions your data over more machine resources to meet your I/O performance requirements. It also automatically replicates your data across multiple Availability Zones (and automatically re-replicates in the case of disk or node failures) to meet stringent availability and durability requirements. Being a managed service end customers need not worry about scalability for heavy usage and let DynamoDB worry about it.
Scalable. Amazon DynamoDB is designed to scale the resources dedicated to a table to hundreds or even thousands of servers spread over multiple Availability Zones to meet your storage and throughput requirements. There are no pre-defined limits to the amount of data each table can store. Developers can store and retrieve any amount of data and DynamoDB will spread the data across more servers as the amount of data stored in your table grows.
Fast. Amazon DynamoDB provides high throughput at very low latency. It is also built on Solid State Drives to help optimize for high performance even at high scale. Moreover, by not indexing all attributes, the cost of read and write operations is low as write operations involve updating only the primary key index thereby reducing the latency of both read and write operations. An application running in EC2 will typically see average service-side latencies in the single-digit millisecond range for a 1KB object. Most importantly, DynamoDB latencies are predictable. Even as datasets grow, latencies remain stable due to the distributed nature of DynamoDB's data placement and request routing algorithms.
Durable and Highly Available. Amazon DynamoDB replicates its data over at least 3 different data centers so that the system can continue to operate and serve data even under complex failure scenarios.
Flexible. Amazon DynamoDB is an extremely flexible system that does not force its users into a particular data model or a particular consistency model. DynamoDB tables do not have a fixed schema but instead allow each data item to have any number of attributes, including multi-valued attributes. Developers can optionally use stronger consistency models when accessing the database, trading off some performance and availability for a simpler model. They can also take advantage of the atomic increment/decrement functionality of DynamoDB for counters.
Low cost. Amazon DynamoDB's pricing is simple and predictable: Storage is $1 per GB per month. Requests are priced based on how much capacity is reserved: $0.01 per hour for every 10 units of Write Capacity and $0.01 per hour for every 50 units of Read Capacity. A unit of Read (or Write) Capacity equals one read (or write) per second of capacity for items up to 1KB in size. If you use eventually consistent reads, you can achieve twice as many reads per second for a given amount of Read Capacity. Larger items will require additional throughput capacity.
With the availability of DynamoDB and offering Windows clouds for free its clear that Amazon shows its willingness to keep rolling out significant new capabilities as per demand from time to time.

NEW BREMEN – A light seemed to go on for the New Bremen Cardinals volleyball team as the second set of the third match began Saturday.
In a tri-match against the Covington Buccaneers and Anna Rockets the Cardinals defeated Covington 24-26, 25-15 and 25-16 and they defeated Anna 15-25, 25-20 and 25-17. Anna defeated Covington in the second match 25-18, 23-25 and 25-20.
The light went on for the Roughrider offense and Bath's punishing running back got taken down.
The St. Marys football team delivered a breakthrough 36-19 win over Bath by stonewalling standout tailback Aaron Smith on defense and mixing a powerful ground game with an efficient passing game on Friday night at Skip Baughman Stadium.
MINSTER – Marion Local defeated ninth-ranked Minster 26-17 in a Midwest Athletic Conference homecoming showdown on Friday.
"We played really well tonight. This is a big win for us and we've been waiting a long time for this one," said Marion Local head coach Tim Goodwin. "We played, not real well, (but) we played hard. We made plays and Minster played really well too. It was just two, evenly-matched teams."
Goodwin said he was most happy with his team's resiliency throughout the game.
NEW BREMEN – During the week New Bremen Cardinals head football coach stated that the New Bremen-Fort Recovery game would likely be close.
He likely didn't know just how right he'd be.
Fort Recovery won that close match-up 34-33 at New Bremen on Friday night.
Two big interceptions by Fort Recovery in the fourth quarter put the nail into the coffin for New Bremen as freshman Cole Hull intercepted an Elliot Westerbeck pass with 1:21 to end the Cardinal threat and cap a wild contest.
From the city that builds tanks, there is Aaron Smith.
From the town that has manufactured rushing yards with assembly-line efficiency through the years, there is D.J. Manning.
For three weeks, the St. Marys football team has faced a barrage of throws from three spread teams.
Now for something completely different.
The two best rushing teams and the two best rushers in the Western Buckeye League should make for a hard-hitting league match-up at Skip Baughman Stadium on Friday night.

Before a person may be brought to trial, the Criminal District Attorney's Office must present evidence to a grand jury to justify an indictment.
The Grand Jury Unit prepares and presents cases to the grand jury. This special unit is under the leadership of a chief felony prosecutor and is staffed by 10 attorneys, one from each felony court. This unit also employs two investigators, five support personnel and one court reporter.
Every year in Tarrant County, 96 people serve on eight grand juries, which are convened two at a time. A grand jury is composed of 12 Tarrant County residents who serve a
three-month term and are paid $36 a day. The grand jurors consider more than 14,000 cases each year. They are bound by an oath of secrecy which prohibits the disclosure of grand jury proceedings.
After a case has been fully investigated by the appropriate law enforcement agency and the Criminal District Attorney's Office, the grand jury attorney assigned to the case must decide what crime, if any, has been committed. This information is then presented to the grand jury.
At least once a week, each grand jury attorney meets with the grand jurors to present the cases he or she has prepared. The presentations may be factual summaries by the assistant criminal district attorney or live witness testimony.
After the grand jury hears the evidence, it votes on the case in secrecy. A grand jury decides whether sufficient facts justify criminal charges against the accused. No one other than a member of the grand jury may be present during deliberations. It does not determine guilt or innocence.
If at least nine grand jurors find sufficient evidence, the grand jury returns a true bill of indictment. If less than nine grand jurors vote to indict, the case is "no billed." This means that the charges are not presented to a criminal court for trial. All indictments are then delivered to the District Judge by the entire grand jury in open court.

German, Hildesheim, about 1170s
Tempera colors, gold leaf, silver, and ink on parchment
The miniature of the Women at the Tomb introduces the Mass for Easter in the Stammheim Missal. In the center, two women approach the tomb, hoping to prepare their Lord's body with spices and wondering who will help them to roll the stone away. Instead they find the tomb empty, and the angel sitting atop it explains: Ih[esu]m que[m] q[ue]ritis n[on] e[st] hic s[ed] surr[exit] (Jesus whom you seek is not here but risen). On the left, the soldiers who are supposed to be guarding Jesus' tomb sleep, oblivious that Jesus has risen. On the right, Isaiah holds a scroll with an Old Testament prophecy understood to refer to Jesus' Resurrection: "His sepulchre will be glorious." At the top, God's hand descends from the clouds with a verse from Psalm 56 on the scroll: "Arise my glory." Jesus, halfway through the roof, replies with the second part of the verse: "I will arise early." At the bottom of the frame, the phoenix, a bird that, according to legend, burned itself and then rose from its own ashes, alludes to Christ's Resurrection. Similarly, the scenes in the four corners of the miniature show episodes from the Old Testament interpreted as prefigurations of Jesus' Resurrection.

Guest Column: Direct attention, more resources to core city
One can't help but be struck by the sharp contrast in the last several days regarding plans for growth in High Point and Greensboro.
The Enterprise reported Nov. 20 that High Point City Council voted 7-2 to give $13 million to supplement a Greensboro businessman turned developer for upgrades surrounding a proposed industrial park on farmland located 15 miles outside of High Point's core city area.
The News & Record reported on Nov. 28 that multiple participants in Greensboro, including Greensboro's City Council, after studying the success of other cities and consulting with architects and economic developers, were considering a $60 million investment in downtown Greensboro to build a new performing arts center. And another $18 million investment is being planned for a new University Center in which Cone Medical and area universities will move some of their facilities into the downtown area.
High Point's inner city property values are declining while High Point's inner city property taxes [and utilities] are increasing. In contrast, Greensboro's inner city property values are increasing [one estimate as much as 20 percent], while Greensboro city property taxes remain lower than those of High Point.
Whether or not you believe the new studies that show sprawl costs more in government services than received in new tax revenues, especially over time as maintenance kicks in, falling property values and rising property taxes in High Point's inner city is a prescription for continuing core city decline.
And this should be of concern for all of us living in High Point, whether or not we live in the core city area. For when the core of a city declines, so does its image to itself and to the world, which in turn impacts negatively everyone living in that city.
An Enterprise editorial on Nov. 25 questioned the wisdom of High Point's outgoing City Council to offer $13 million to supplement a Greensboro developer for development in a county location, and emphasized that city taxpayers will be footing that bill.
The editorial went on to ask the new incoming City Council to "review this proposal closely in light of needs in existing areas of High Point" that have been identified and approved by High Point citizens in the 2006 Community Vision Growth Statement and the Core City Plan of 2007.
In our opinion, that's good advice.
Dorothy Darr has lived in the core city more than 30 years and is Co-Chair of the Southwest Renewal Foundation of High Point which seeks revitalization of the Southwest quadrant of inner city High Point.

NCIS Review: "Patriot Down"by Steve Marsi at . Comments
For a show frequently tagged as a procedural, NCIS weaves remarkably intricate, ongoing story lines. Last night's episode, "Patriot Down," wouldn't have the same impact had you not watched the previous week, or this entire season, or perhaps the entire series.
The two-part seventh season finale, beginning Tuesday and to be continued next week, is shaping up to be the culmination of much more than that as Gibbs' long-buried past is finally coming to light, courtesy of unknown forces. He's reeling and so are we.
Like last week's "Borderland," the murder in "Patriot Down" seemed unrelated to the escalating, shady plot to destroy Gibbs at first, but connections were made before long.
Special Agent Lara Macy, familiar from last season's "Legend," (and referenced last night on NCIS: Los Angeles) was not just found dead, but in Annapolis, NCIS' jurisdiction.
Someone wanted her to be found by Gibbs' team.
As Ducky discerned, whomever killed Macy wanted her to be found by NCIS.
It appeared as though Macy may have been killed after investigating the rape of Petty Officer Kaylen Burrows. Privileged college student Tyler Hammond was a prime suspect.
His story didn't add up and after Burrows was assaulted by Burrows' fellow service members, suspicions fell on them as well. But it was Hammon behind it - and his father.
Disturbingly, Burrows was sexually assaulted by Tyler and Randall Hammond, a D.C. construction tycoon, a fact unearthed by Gibbs during an intense interrogation scene.
But these two didn't kill anyone.
When Ducky learns that Macy was killed with precision by an Army-issued knife, Gibbs realizes what he'd suspected all along: Macy's death had nothing to do with the rape.
It had everything to do with him.Macy being killed in such a violent way, with a signature Army Ranger, was proof that she was targeted. As was the fact that someone had stolen some of her old notebooks.
Not regarding the Burrows case, but from way back - 1991-1992, when she was an MP at Pendleton, and around when Gibbs killed Hernandez. It's all coming together now.
You can see how it pains Gibbs to lose control, to be jerked around as he so often does to adversaries, and especially to see those close to him in peril. He is unusually tense.
He suspects that Mike Franks may be next , and makes a frantic call to his local bar in Mexico, telling the owner to relay a simple message: Rule #44. But is he too late?
The big twist came at the end, with Gibbs on the Mexican coast, a scene that opened the episode before the credits, and took place four days after the murder of Lara Macy.
Finding a body he believed to be Franks in the sand, Gibbs was cornered and disarmed by Lt. Dean, Col. Bell's right-hand man, and who NCIS had linked to Macy's death.
Lt. Dean revealed that the dead body they were standing over was not Mike Franks, but Col. Merton Bell. Gibbs: "Who are you really working for?" *THUD* End scene.
How will Gibbs get himself out of this one?
We never guessed that "Patriot Down" referred to Bell as well as Macy. Allison Hart always terms Bell a patriot, and while he'd been digging into Gibbs, this runs much deeper.
It appears as if the Reynosa drug cartel may be behind the killings, and that Paloma Reynosa may be looking for revenge herself. Could she be Pedro Hernandez's daughter?
This should be very interesting to watch play out, as Hart suggested Bell was "involved" with the narco-terrorists in some fashion. But why did Dean turn on his boss, Bell?
One theory is that Bell was working with them (and Hart, who helped drum up the cold case) to expose Gibbs, but the cartel had far greater and sinister motives - murder.
With Gibbs captured, it looks like he's up against it, but from the way Vance put the smack down on on Hart, you know he's going to do whatever it takes to get him back.
Does this put to rest doubts as to the director's loyalties? Where does Hart fit into the equation now? Either way, looks like we're in for a terrific season-ender next Tuesday.
Other thoughts, observations and lingering questions:
- What is Rule #44?
- Tony lines of the night: To McGee: "What kind of boy scout are you?" "Who are you, Bobby Flay?" On what Ziva's graduating from: "English as a 10th Language."
- Abby kept probing Gibbs for cues as to what do with the evidence, and after avoiding questions all night, he ultimately told her to do one thing: her job. Exactly.
- If we remember correctly, Lara Macy was the one who ruled Gibbs' shooting of Hernandez justifiable and didn't include any evidence to the contrary. Interesting.
What did you think of last night's NCIS? How will this play out next week? Do you agree with our theories above or have your own? Comment below!

As Ducky discerned, whomever killed Macy wanted her to be found by NCIS. C'mon people: WHOEVER. It's the subject of the phrase. "Whomever" would be an object. This is 8th grade grammar.
I don't think Ziva was raped, sure she reacted strangely, but wouldn't any woman?
Plus, Ziva doesn't act like a woman who has been raped, she still flirts and makes inuendos with Tony, and in "Endgame", the bathroom scene with Tony, and he asks her how she would 'get' someone, and she says "Brute force is always interesting". Would a woman who has been raped REALLY say that? Or act the way she acts?
I don't think so.
I just think Ziva was severly beaten and tortured in somalia, but not raped.
She acts the same as she always has, really, still flirting, and whatnot. And you may say 'oh, that's just Ziva, she's a strong woman' and all, but really, would she seriously say that about brute force if she had been raped?
I agree with Rachel. There's a good chance that it's connected. You can't act like that to something if you don't understand it or have experienced it. I think it's more than likely. Poor Ziva, I want to hug her so badly.
Ummmm, can somebody help me remember...What is rule 44?! Why are we all up in arms about Rule 51 when we got Rule 44 and no explanation last week? Just saying!
I had to watch, rewatch and triple-watch the episode so I wouln't miss a thing. Let's get the obvious things out the way: Abby is going to present her findings which will immediately throw Gibbs in hot water with the law (at least in the US) and Mike Franks and his family got away (Camila said that she gave him the message when the Mexican police came by). Now...everything I pointed out in last weeks review came true (http://www.tvfanatic.com/2010/.... I knew Macy had to come back but I never expected her to die. Although I didn't want to speculate, I knew there was someone behind Gibbs and most people had thought it was Col. Bell. I almost believed it myself until I saw he died at the end. Col. Bell was definetly behind the snooping around (Hart confirmed it) and he used the cartel as his foot soldiers in Mexico in order to dig up the physical evidence. The last scene feautures Gibbs riding a horse seeing a bunch of dead people. As a hispanic myself, I can tell you that the men dead on the ground were most likely cartel (just looking at the clothing is more than enough evidence). However, both the cartel men and Col. Bell are dead. It seems that Col. Bell did the snooping, yes, but someone else got a hold of it and took advantage of his work (perhaps he was being monitored without his knowledge). They both have something in common, though: they want to destroy Gibbs. The former Army Mayor is simply a mercenary: he works for the highest bidder and, taking into account that last scene, it seems he found a higher payroll than Col. Bell which would make sense: only someone above Bell can look into what Bell is doing (and that is definetly not the cartel). Who could that person be? ...you know, Ziva's father would surely be pissed of at Gibbs since he effectively took Ziva away from him for good. After all, it is no secret that he never liked the fact that she was liasoned to the US. He would definely be higher on the ladder than Col. Bell to pull it off... And it seems Mike Franks is going to play some part into this...what was that "insurance policy" that Mike took around the time of Jenny's death?
I have a feeling that Gibbs' motivation for telling Abby to do her job is that the last person who covered for him ended up dead.... By him telling her to do her job, he was trying to protect her. Also... I agree with rachel, though Ziva's character has been all "rough and tumble" and superhuman sans emotions/weakness... And... I think that Franks is dead too
Gibbs ran Black Ops missions,terminate with extreme prejudice.This mission was not sanctioned,Gibbs went lone wolf,but Lara ruled a good shoot.As for as Jag and legal system is concerned case closed.Gibbs has his rules and that is why it still bothers him. Mr.Nice guy in Mexico is involved in set-up "You Think".Old Mike Franks is still out there with his .45,somewhere.He has a habit of being in the right place at the right time.Vance will cover Gibbs and DEA will carve up the Cartel. Dean is,"Dead Man Walking".
i think the cartel had dean do all the killing to get gibbs. Bell went along to get back at gibbs, and was killed when no longer useful. as to ann lorentsen, not everyone who dies on NCIS is Gibbs related. Kate, yes, Jenny no, Michelle (asian lawyer)no, pacci (male special agent, season 2)no, marcy, yes. so two yes, three no, in a seven year span. don't believe me, go to www.videostic.com and watch the old episodes.
i think i'm gonna pukk.. i am so sick og gibbs.. everybody that dies on the show dies becaus some one wants to hurt gibbs Kate Jenny and now marcy and i heard that some on els is goning to die
Nat has a good theory. I guessed that the cartel was using Bell and bribed Dean to kill him once he got in the way, but you could very well be right. Rachel makes an interesting observation about Ziva's comment. Unusually harsh. Remember Gibbs said that part of her died out there? Did it really?

Dining room table turns into a secret house
Monday, January 18, 2010 - 7:03am
There's a lot to love about this table, dubbed the "Daily Shelter." I mean, who doesn't want to crawl into their own personal hiding spot from the world every now and then? And right after a contentious family meal, no less. Sure, it's designed for little kids, but I don't think there's an age limit on loving secret forts.
