E! renews 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' for a second season
By Christopher Rocchio, 11/13/2007
Similar to her gal pal Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian has apparently made the successful transition from socialite to reality television starlet.
E! Network has ordered
Keeping Up with the Kardashians
for a second season, the network announced Monday. The
first season
of the reality series, which follows the entire Kardashian clan in their daily life, premiered on E! last month and has finished first among basic cable shows in its Sunday night time period in the Women 18-34 demographic, according to E!.
"The buzz surrounding the series is huge, and viewers have clearly fallen for the Kardashians," said Lisa Berger, E!'s executive vice president of programming and development.

More Keeping Up News
Keeping Up with the Kardashians
is a production of
The Simple Life
The Real World
producers Bunim-Murray Productions, as well as
American Idol
host Ryan Seacrests's Ryan Seacrest Productions.
"Seacrest and Bunim-Murray's unique ability to capture this family's one-of-a-kind dynamics and hilarious antics has made the series a fantastic addition to our prime-time lineup," said Berger. "We're delighted to announce a second season."
Kardashian is the daughter of the late Robert Kardashian, a defense lawyer mostly known for his work on the O.J. Simpson trial. However she officially became a media star in her own right when she befriended Hilton and the two were constantly captured on camera partying as only a pair of socialites can.
An X-rated video featuring Kardashian with her then boyfriend Ray J. hit the Internet earlier this year, causing her to file an invasion-of-privacy lawsuit against porn production company Vivid Entertainment, which planned to release a DVD of the steamy footage. Kardashian eventually reached a multimillion-dollar settlement with Vivid and the video was taken off the market.

Thank you, St. Louis!
On February 21, TEDxGatewayArch hosted Confluence II at the Sheldon Concert Hall. In spite of wintery forecasts, hundreds of enthusiastic TEDsters filled the theater to applaud some of our region's finest citizens.
Sixteen speakers, half a dozen performers and numerous exhibitors gave attendees a full day of new ideas and success stories, illustrating how our city is filled with innovators and thought leaders.
If you couldn't attend our second flagship event, visit the recorded and unedited simulcast which will remain on this site until the volunteer team can separate and edit each speaker's presentation.
We will be holding open auditions for our next event in early June. Sign up for our newsletter so you don't miss out!
What is TEDx?
TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design) is a global set of conferences owned by the private non-profit Sapling Foundation, under the slogan: "Ideas Worth Spreading".
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program called TEDx. TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Our event is called TEDxConfluence, where x = independently organized TED event. At our TEDxGatewayArch events, TEDTalks video and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organized.
Stay up to date on what happens to ideas after a TEDxGatewayArch event. Follow up with speakers, performers and partners to see how their ideas have grown.

One man's "Hard Knocks" diary while wondering what Tom Brady does watch from 10-11 on Wednesday nights. I'm guessing either "Teen Mom" or "Alan Alda's Scientific American Frontiers."
To the diary we go ...
10:02 p.m.: Previously on "Hard Knocks" … pretty much a Joe McKnight blooper reel. All that was missing was a Mel Allen voice-over ("Now, time for TWIB notes from around the league). I don't know, every time HBO makes a guy out to be a total disaster he winds up coming up big in a preseason game and makes the team. I'm not falling for it this year.
10:03: We're a full two weeks in and we haven't had a full LaDanian Tomlinson segment yet. I hate to mention that, feels like I just jinxed a no-hitter. Tomlinson is my least favorite athlete of the last 20 years, a total phony. If HBO goes the "classy" route with LT I'm going to vomit every piece of food I've ever eaten, all the way back to the Gerber stuff.
10:05: Lesson from the Giants preseason game? If the Jets ever take out their entire starting lineup in the first half of a game they are in serious trouble.
10:08: If Woody Johnson made $200,000 a year he'd be the least popular guy at Jets fantasy camp.
10:09: Here's Mike Westhoff blatantly stealing my line to my wife in our hotel room on our wedding night:
"I don't give a [expletive] if you have the [expletive] triple Asian flu, when we call 'red' you get your ass outside and don't let that guy escape."
10:10: Westhoff is great, though, seriously. Easily my favorite character on the show. Doesn't care about the cameras at all, not a lot of screaming just to look tough, just does his thing. Here's what he said to tight end Matt Mulligan after a botched special teams play.
"Sometimes it's important for us to know what we can and can't do. Where our strengths lie. You're not Tony Gonzalez, but who gives a [expletive]. You're a good blocker, strong as hell. You're tough. Play to those strengths. Everything else will fall into place."
10:11: Mark Brunell is two years older than Drew Bledsoe and I still think the Jets might be better with him at QB than Sanchez (12 TD, 20 INT last year).
10:12: Has anyone ever looked cool on a exercise bike? Maybe Ivan Drago, maybe Jamie Lee Curtis in "Perfect" (her peak, I will not hear an argument) but that's it.
10:13: It's cut the punter day! Who goes, Steve Weatherford (veteran) or T.J. Conley (young guy who has maybe made the leap — he was gassed last year). Who goes? Most suspenseful reality TV moment since Helen Thomas chose Sam Donaldson over Bernard Shaw in 1982's "Who wants to bang a White House correspondent?"
10:14: And … it's the kid. Rex handled the gassing of Conley about as well as you can do it. Tells him he's an NFL punter right now, but comes across like he means it. Most coaches (at least most coaches in "Hard Knocks" history) can't get out that room fast enough, but Rex took his time and had an actual conversation.
10:16: Matt Slauson and Matt Kroul with a 6.5 on the preseason tussle scale. Not too shabby, but I need a cameraman to get knocked down and both helmets off before I get too interested.
10:19: Rex Ryan skipping with his wife and kids. For Antoino Cromartie to do this he would a need a setup like the government had in "WarGames."
10:20: Rex walking on the treadmill, complete with slow motion shots and music. I'm thinking this won't be Sally Draper's next solo time subject.
10:22: Just showed Adam Tadisch's Arena League TD catch (a Ben Coates special, dragged six guys 20 yards) which we're told is a YouTube sensation. Just watched it, not too shabby. Plus he looks like Brock Lesnar's mentally challenged twin brother. I'm intrigued.
10:24: Rookie DB Brian Jackson just gave coach Dennis Thurman some lip. Not good.
"Brian, come here. You aren't going to talk to me any kind of [expletive] way. You're a [expletive] rookie, boy. I don't give a [expletive] what you say, let me tell you something. Boy don't get any lip with me, I'll send your ass out of here. … Don't come out here if you don't know what you're [expletive] doing."
I love it. Any other job in America and Thurman would be fired within, what, 15 minutes?
10:26: With Thurman's blessing, the rest of the defenses ties Thurman up, drags him to a goal post and puts ice and powder and food on his face. I bet there's a deleted scene where Jason Taylor and Bart Scott waterboarded him for 15 minutes while Kris Jenkins ripped each toenail out.
10:27: Danny Woodhead (Division 2 running back) has been called "tough," "gritty," and "pesky" in the last 30 seconds. You figure out why.
10:32: I know we don't like him all that much around here, but it's still Rex Ryan > Joe West, right?
Rookie Night. We start with a local magician to kick off the show.
"The only reason he's here is because his fiancee is hot, obviously," says Rex.
(Hot I don't know. Not terrible, but looks like one (or two, I guess) shaky breast implant job. Shades of Tori Spelling in 1994. One's about a yard higher than the other. And yes, I re-watched it about 46 times to be sure.)
10:35: Ugliest rookie contest. Exactly what it means. Brian Jackson wins King Ugly. When do we get our first hazing lawsuit in the NFL? I'll set it at 2016, anyone want the over?
10:36: Bart Scott to magician: "Make Revis show up. That'd be a hell of a trick."
10:37: Camp breaks. Kind of like the last day at fat camp — everyone is happy to go and proud of what they've done, but they all know they'll be back next year.
10:38: Second preseason game in Carolina. Cue the " 'Hard Knocks' second preseason game" music.
10:38: Woody Johnson looks like a cross between James Taylor and Tom Wolfe.
10:39: Mark Sanchez first quarter: 5-for-10, 12 yards. A nice tribute to Scott Secules.
10:41: This defense is scary good. If it gets Revis back it has to be the best in the league.
10:42: Ropati Pitoitua tears his Achilles tendon and is carted back to the locker room. Tough to watch a guy realize that his season is shot.
10:43: Brian Schottenheimer halftime speech to his offense (just 45 total yards): "Let's just hope that Mark Sanchez doesn't actually suck, because if he does I'll be the quality control coach for the Rams next year."
10:44: Huge special teams hit by Chauncey Washington — earns three "Holy [expletives]" from Rex.
10:45: Now Washington is running the ball hard. Doesn't look good for Scrappy Woodhead.
10:46: HBO DID pull the fake-out with Joe McKnight. He breaks a punt return for 60 yards. I knew it!
10:48: "He doesn't know [expletive] from shinola." A Rex staple.
Just because I've always wondered ...
Shinola was a brand of shoe polish previously manufactured in the USA. The alliteration and the fact that the two commodities in the phrase could possibly be confused is the derivation. The distinction is well made; only one of them would be good to apply to your shoes and only particularly dim people could be expected to muddle them up. Of course, outside America, most people don't know Shinola from anything at all, as they've never heard of it. Even in America it would probably not be widely remembered but for this phrase.
This phrase is typical of the barrack room vulgarity of WWII, which is where it originated. Other "doesn't know" phrases, also mostly from the military are, "doesn't know his arse from a hole in the ground" (or elbow, or a hot rock, or third base), "doesn't know enough to pee downwind", "doesn't know whether to scratch his watch or wind his ass." The tone is lifted a little by the English conductor Sir Henry Wood, who expressed a similar opinion with "he doesn't know his brass from his woodwind."
10:50: A 6-0 Jets win. Game ball to Chauncey Washington.
10:51: Nick Mangold signing a $55 million deal and Logan Mankins putting his foot through his TV.
10:52: YouTube Tadisch gets gassed. "You are no Ben Coates, [expletive]," said Rex. OK, maybe he didn't.
Next week on "Hard Knocks"? The whole team bands together to get Vincent Chase away from the booger sugar and that no-good Sasha Grey.

UAB launches branding campaign

- Email | Twitter | Google+
The University of Alabama at Birmingham has launched a campaign that aims to unify the school's academic and medical brands.
The university announced today that the campaign is being run under a tagline called "UAB: Knowledge that will change your world." To bolster the campaign, the university launched a TV spot that includes scenes at UAB hospital, the Egyptian desert and the Comprehensive Cancer Center, among other areas.
UAB President Ray Watts said the campaign speaks to each facet of the university's mission, which includes multidisciplinary learning for students, research, patient care, community service and the economic development of Birmingham and Alabama.
UAB's campaign, slated to feature on the school's websites, is also being aired on radio and going to social media and billboards.
"The importance of having a clear, recognizable brand cannot be overstated," Watts said. "In an environment as complex as UAB, a brand will help unify, simplify and define us. It will also help evaluate our profile with the greater public as we communicate our relevance and value."
The UAB news release announcing the campaign mentioned the university's 60,000-plus jobs and $5 billion annual economic impact. The release also mentioned a major fundraising campaign slated for this coming fall.
"As we work together to become one of the nation's most dynamic and productive universities, we must share our aims and accomplishments with the world around us," Watts said.

PoliticsS Korea warns North over rocket launch plan "Firm response" threatened if Pyongyang goes ahead with its planned rocket launch for "scientific purposes". 09 Apr 2012 14:11 GMT | Politics, Environment, Asia Pacific, US & Canada, Japan South Korea has threatened to deliver a "firm response" to "provocation" if the North goes ahead with its planned rocket launch. North Korea's long-range rocket, scheduled to put what it says is a satellite into orbit next week, has been installed on its launch platform, according to the country's space officials. Speaking on Monday, Kim Min-seok, South Korea's defence ministry spokesman, said: "We want to clarify that the launch is a provocation that threatens the peace and stability of the Korean peninsula and Northeast Asia. "The South Korean military is fully prepared to protect the South Korean people and respond firmly against any acts of provocation that threaten the peace and stability of the Korean peninsula." Scientific achievement North Korea maintains that the launch is meant to demonstrate its scientific achievement. Engineers, insisting the project was for scientific purposes, said the satellite will orbit the earth and send back data for weather forecasts and crop surveys. Nevertheless, the US, Japan, Britain and other nations have urged North Korea to cancel the launch. They say that firing the long-range rocket would violate UN resolutions and the country's promise to refrain from engaging in nuclear and missile activity. The communist nation organised an unprecedented visit to Tongchang-ri space centre to show that the Unha-3 rocket is not a disguised ballistic missile, as claimed by the US and its allies, notably South Korea and Japan. "To say this is a missile test is really nonsense," Jang Myong-jin, head of the space centre, said. "This launch was planned long ago, on the occasion of the 100th birthday of [late] president Kim Il-sung. We are not doing it for provocative purposes." For the first time, North Korea allowed some 50 foreign journalists to go to the new space centre built on the Cholsan peninsula, 50km from the Chinese border. The journalists were able to observe the rocket, painted in white with sky blue lettering, installed on a platform ahead of its scheduled launch sometime between April 12-16. Internal goals Jim Walsh, an international security expert at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, says the launch is aimed at cementing the position of the country's new leader, Kim Jong-un. "I think this test is aimed not an international audience- South Korea, US or others. It is aimed internally," he told Al Jazeera from Boston. Jim Walsh of MIT says the planned rocket launch, at a time of political transition, has internal goals "I think we have to remember that North Korea is going through a political transition-only the second political transition in its entire history. There is a young leader, this is a about ... I think that message is directed internally." Kim took over as the country's "supreme leader" after his father, Kim Jong-il, died last december. "Frankly, this missile test technically, in terms of military capability, means nothing," Walsh said. "Roughly, this is their fourth test in 15 years. That doesn't take you far in the missile business." Last month, Naoki Tanaka, Japan's defence minister, said Japan could shoot down a North Korean rocket if it entered Japanese airspace. It even deployed a land-based system of interceptor missiles in preparation for the planned rocket launch. China, North Korea's main foreign ally, has also expressed its concerns. The US suspended on March 29 food aid to the North, saying Pyongyang had broken its promise to refrain from missile launches and cannot be trusted to deliver the aid to those who need it.Source: Al Jazeera and agencies

An overwhelming 80 percent of U.S. voters oppose proposals for government-backed health-care plans for illegal immigrants, according to a Rasmussen Reports poll released Friday.
That compares to only 11 percent who think providing illegal workers with a government health-care plan is a good idea.
The strong opposition to health-care coverage for illegals, based on a national poll of 1,000 likely voters, comes amidst ongoing negotiations over the proposed health-care reform package now working its way through Congress.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, over 10 million illegal immigrants in the United States lack health insurance. That's about 22 percent of the 46 million people in America who are without insurance.
American voters continue to strongly favor the idea that all Americans should have quality health-care coverage, however. Sixty-five percent say that every American should have access to quality health care. Only 22 percent disagree.
Support for providing health-care coverage for illegals is sharply divided along party lines. According to Rasmussen, nine out of 10 likely voters who describe themselves as conservative are against granting health-care coverage to illegals.
About half of those who identify themselves as liberal think providing health-care to undocumented workers is a good idea.

Crossed Patterns for Home
By FacingnorthPia Wallen is a Swedish designer famous worldwide and the Cross blanket above is probably her most iconic project. It is actually related to the Crux Blanket which was born in 1991, becoming quickly a must-have for any Scandinavian design lover (me included but just a few years later). This new version is made of organic cotton and - thanks God I' want to say - much cheaper than the original Crux blanket. The pattern was chosen by Pia by the values, that a cross represents. In Swedish folk art tradition, the cross is a strong symbol for hope. Is there anything better to WISH YOU ALL A MARVELLOUS NEW YEAR'S BEGINNING?
Other images are Pia Wallen's Cross tray, Cross blanket display inspiration, Plus Signs wallpaper by UrbanWalls and a DIY, perfect for cool nurseries or any Scandinavian addict! The Cross Blanket is available at Storynorth webshop, where I'll order mine as soon as my pocket will allow me! Happy brand new week!

Urgent Appeal: Stop Arbitrary Detentions in Turkey
The international public has so far been oblivious to the so-called "KCK operations" carried out in Turkey by Prime Minister Erdogan and his Justice and Development Party for the past two years. Under the guise of "fighting terrorism," the Erdogan government has been using the judiciary, the police, and the media to penalize all civic activism in support of rights demanded by Kurdish citizens in Turkey. The "KCK operations" in particular have been deployed to spread fear amongst activists, to silence public dissent, and to normalize the arbitrary arrest of citizens. Ironically, the Erdogan government's suppression of dissent and of democratic politics has visibly intensified at a time when "Turkish democracy" is being hailed as a model for the Arab world.
Since 2009, as many as 7748 people have been taken under custody on the alleged grounds that they are associated with the KCK—an organization claimed to be the urban branch of the armed organization known as the PKK (Kurdistan Workers' Party)—while 3895 people have been arrested and imprisoned without even the prospect of a trial in the foreseeable future. Elected mayors, public intellectuals, members of civic associations, journalists, university students, researchers, academics, and activists have all been undergoing this heavy-handed treatment.
One of the latest victims of the Erdogan government's assault on public dissent is Professor Busra Ersanli of Marmara University, a highly respected academic. Her only apparent "crime" is to have played an active role within BDP (Peace and Democracy Party), which has been struggling for the rights of Kurdish citizens in Turkey. The members of this party have been systematically targeted by counterterrorism units' arbitrary arrests, even as the party currently holds seats in the parliament. Professor Ersanli was to attend a conference on "Controversial Issues in the History of the Turkish Republic" at Istanbul Bilgi University on 29 October 2011, but she was taken under custody on 28 October. On the same day, Ragıp Zarakolu—a founding member of the Human Rights Association and the former chair of the "Writers in Prison Committee" of the International PEN organization in Turkey—was also taken under custody within the framework of the "KCK operations."
Earlier in October 2011, Ayse Berktay (Hacimirzaoglu)—a renowned translator, researcher, and global peace and justice activist—was taken by the police from her home in Istanbul five o'clock in the morning and subsequently arrested. She still remains imprisoned for the foreseeable future. Professor Busra Ersanli, Ragip Zarakolu, and Ayse Berktay are among thousands of people who have been imprisoned and silenced in the last two years.
Under such political conditions that are only getting worse, it has become an urgent task to unmask the arbitrary and authoritarian character of the Turkish government's handling of the Kurdish issue. We are calling on friends abroad to spread the news and to build international pressure, which has become especially crucial and urgent at this time when any citizen of Turkey could be targeted by the Erdogan government, the judiciary, and the police for engaging in political acts of solidarity with those detained under the "KCK operations."
Peace can never be achieved under the current conditions of public fear, paranoia, and authoritarian politics. Please sign the petition below to put pressure on the Turkish government to immediately release all those who have been taken under custody as part of the "KCK operations" and to demand that Prime Minister Erdogan's government make a sincere commitment to ending its suppression of civic efforts in support of rights demanded by Kurdish citizens in Turkey.

Cesc Fabregas transfer: Manchester United? Arsenal? Chelsea? Gerard Pique 'reveals' Barcelona midfielder has been sold for £26.7m
Fabregas's Barcelona and Spain team-mate says the deal is 'done'
James Orr
James Orr is a Digital Sports Reporter for The Independent.
Thursday 05 June 2014
Has Gerard Pique revealed that Cesc Fabregas's transfer is complete?
Fabregas has been strongly linked with moves to Chelsea, Manchester United, Manchester City and Arsenal this summer after being deemed surplus to requirements at the Nou Camp.
His Barcelona and Spain team-mate, Gerard Pique let slip that a €33m (£26.7m) transfer was "done", but did not disclose what team he has been sold to.
Pique was caught talking about the Fabregas "deal" at a promotional event with Spain coach Vicente del Bosque, when a private conversation between the pair was picked up by microphones on the table.
De Bosque said: "About Cesc..."
The Pique replied: "He already told me it's done. He is leaving for 33million euros."
Del Bosque then said in jest: "The [Barcelona] president isn't going to be happy.
"You're going to drive him mad, poor guy. You're going to upset him."
The Arsenal playmaker Santi Cazorla said yesterday that he hopes the Gunners re-sign Fabregas, who left north London to join Barcelona in 2011, but Chelsea appear in pole position to sign the 27-year-old.

On Hope
There is no pleasure,
like the pleasure of knowing things,
and no joy,
like the joy of doing things.
There is no innocence,
only the curiosity of a child.
No maturity,
only the fear of taking risks.
There is no confidence,
only conviction,
and no greatness,
only vision.
There is no Love,
only the urge to participate in others' happiness.
There is no honesty,
only an urge to rid oneself of guilt.
There is no purity, only Nature,
and no order like chaos.
There are no morals,
only ideals of aspiration.
There are no wants,
only needs.
There are no prayers,
only deeds.
No luck,
only chance.
And then,
There is Hope.
Hope is a prayer; a prayer in search,
of deliverance from chance.
Hope is what we need,
to achieve what we want.
Hope allows one,
to aspire to morality.
Hope is in Nature and in it,
is an essence of the purity of life.
Hope is an agent of order in times of chaos.
Hope is honest. Hope is Love.
Hope allows us to act,
on our visions with conviction.
Hope is a hope that we will someday,
take mature decisions in our innocence.
In hope, lie the joy of life,
and the pleasures of a future.
Hope is in the reassuring embrace of the Mother,
the thoughtful advice of the Father,
the tenacious arguments of a younger Sibling
and the gentle, playful smile of the Lover.
Hope is contagious,
addictive even.
Hope is what motivates us,
to get up every morning,
and hope is what nestles,
in our heart as we lie down to sleep.
Hope is in you.
Hope is in me.

Poet's Notes about The Poem
So hope against hope; for hope, manifest in the Strong Nuclear Force allowed nucleons to find each other; hope, manifest in Gravity makes the Earth go around the Sun and hope in probability allowed life to evolve.
Because if you think about it, the chances of us having inherited this beautiful cosmos, this verdant planet, a supportive family, these loving friendships and, this Space in this Time; are but, one in a floppidy jillion gazillion trillion infinity billion.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Goldeyes' hurler living the dream, even in nightmare of first pro outing
It was the top of the seventh inning at Shaw Park Tuesday night, score tied 1-1, when Reggie Hochstedler stepped to the mound and let his first professional pitch fly.
Let's be honest: The rookie pitcher's outing in the second pre-season tilt against the Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks was a rough introduction. He gave up a home run to RedHawks second baseman Ryan Pineda, then walked three more 'Hawks.
He watched RedHawks infielder Keith Brachold stroke a double that sent home two others. By the time Hochstedler was done, the 'Hawks were up 5-1.
But hey, it's baseball, and sometimes things don't go according to plan. So Hochstedler buckled down, focused for a minute on his hands, then struck out the RedHawks' Nick Akins. That closed out the inning and the Shaw Park crowd cheered supportively.
On the plus side, it's not like Hochstedler was expected to be perfect. Indeed, the Goldeyes' first pair of exhibition games will not make up manager Rick Forney's mind, not in these early days of the pre-season while he's still getting to know the guys.
But before the game started Tuesday evening, Forney did offer advice for the rookie.
"Keep your eyes and ears open, and your mouth shut," he said with a smirk.
At 23, Hochstedler is the youngest guy on the team, and he knows he's here to learn. Fresh off his senior season at the University of Indiana, where he went 4-2 with a 3.56 ERA in 26 games en route to a Missouri Valley Conference regular-season championship, he looked around the bullpen Monday and noticed right away how "mature" the pros around him seemed.
See, most of the guys on the Goldeyes came into pro ball by way of the big leagues. They got drafted, slugged it out in the minors and then got released. But Hochstedler never got the draft call, so he took matters into his own fingers: As his college career ended, he sat down at his computer, and sent out emails, hunting for any team, any place that might have a spot for a rookie southpaw to play.
"I just knew I wanted to keep playing baseball, but I didn't have all the chances," he said. "It's the dream, ever since childhood."
The next day, the Goldeyes replied. Weeks later, Hochstedler landed in Winnipeg.
It's a bigger city than he expected -- he got lost Sunday night between the airport and the hotel -- and bigger by far than cosy Kalona, Iowa, where he grew up. Football, basketball and college wrestling were the big sports down there, Hochstedler said, but he found his dream on the ball diamond. Eventually.
"I wasn't good at first, that's for sure," he said, and laughed. "I pitched twice when I was eight years old maybe, and I remember hitting the dugout when I threw. That's how bad of a pitch it was."
Needless to say, he got better -- enough to get into NCAA ball and now to turn pro.
The folks back home in Kalona are pretty pumped about his turn with the Goldeyes, especially if he sticks on the roster and gets to play in some of the handful of American Association parks within a five-hour drive of his hometown.
"Coming from a small town, we don't see that a lot, so my friends are excited," he said.
And hey, it's not a bad time to be a rookie on the Goldeyes roster.
Under American Association rules, the Goldeyes must have four rookies on the roster this season, and they currently have four under contract. Their play, Forney said over the weekend, will determine if they stay -- but he'd be happy if he didn't have to go searching for new rookies.
"It's a tough experience for those guys (out of college). They're trying to settle in and get comfortable and get accustomed to the pro game," Forney said. "I've heard a lot of good things about (Hochstedler), so hopefully he'll be able to come in and adjust quickly and be an integral part of our team."

Kukla's Korner Hockey
DiPietro's Knee Issue Not Serious
by Paul on 03/02/10 at 08:55 AM ET
Comments (0)
from Dan Martin of the NY Post,
Want to sum up the last few years for Rick DiPietro and the Islanders?
The goalie entered the NHL's two-week Olympic break with his surgically repaired knee in good shape and not having missed a practice due to injury since returning on Jan. 6. And now, on the eve of the team's return to the ice tonight against Chicago at the Coliseum, he's out indefinitely with swelling in the knee.
Still, the 28-year-old was not terribly discouraged by the news, saying tests showed yesterday that everything is fine structurally with the knee.
"It's precautionary," DiPietro said after returning to the team's practice facility after practice, where he worked out. "After seven or eight days off, to kick it back into full gear might have irritated it a little bit. There's nothing major to report, just the stuff that goes along with the territory of coming back from a serious injury."
