The change to his batting stance isnÔÇÖt drastic, but Diamondbacks outfielder Gerardo Parra thinks it will help.
Instead of being slightly open with his front leg straight, Parra is a little more closed, his right leg already bent. The idea, he says, is to minimize the amount of movement when he starts his swing.
ÔÇťIÔÇÖm just keeping my weight back,ÔÇŁ he said. ÔÇťThatÔÇÖs the point. IÔÇÖm keeping my weight back and waiting for the ball. I think it will help me on all pitches because I wonÔÇÖt move too much.ÔÇŁ
Parra said he implemented the change while working out in Florida during the off-season.
ÔÇťI think heÔÇÖs just shortening everything up,ÔÇŁ Diamondbacks hitting coach Turner Ward said. ÔÇťHeÔÇÖs creating less movement into his swing. HeÔÇÖs trying to put himself in a position to be on time more often.ÔÇŁ
Parra is looking to put together a consistent performance at the plate across a full, six-month season. ThatÔÇÖs no easy task; few hitters are slump-proof. But ParraÔÇÖs more or less done it before. In 2011, he posted a .763 OPS or better in five of six months.
In 2013, he was essentially two different players one half to the next. In the first half, he slashed .285/.342/.425. But after the break, those numbers dipped to .242/.294/.369.
ÔÇťHe is determined to be more consistent,ÔÇŁ Ward said. ÔÇťThatÔÇÖs what all of these hitters are trying to do, trying to do something to help them be more consistent.ÔÇŁ
If youÔÇÖre not supposed to read anything into spring training stats, you should read even less into what happens during the workouts before the games begin.
In spite of that, we went ahead and asked hitters who impressed them during live batting practice sessions over the past week. We werenÔÇÖt looking for easy answers like Patrick Corbin or Addison Reed, but instead were after the sleeper types, pitchers they maybe werenÔÇÖt as familiar with until now.
First answer: Seth Simmons. One look at SimmonsÔÇÖ minor league track record ÔÇô 2.79 ERA, 12.7 strikeouts per nine — and youÔÇÖd think heÔÇÖs a pretty good prospect. But the thing that might give scouts pause is his height: HeÔÇÖs listed at 5-foot-9. Still, the hitter who mentioned Simmons said he had good angle, a deceptive arm slot and good secondary stuff.
Second answer: Matt Stites. Not a totally under-the-radar answer since he was considered a significant part of the Ian Kennedy trade from July. A teammate said he was impressed not only with StitesÔÇÖ velocity, but also his ability to locate his fastball and then put hitters away with his change-up and breaking ball.

Help my plant is sick
pdxishomeNovember 17, 2012
Hello Gardeners, Please tell me how to resolve this or is my plant going to succumb?
tapla (mid-MI z5b-6a)
I'd get rid of the mealybug as soon as possible, and do some reading to ensure you're providing cultural conditions that ensure good vitality. Often, the insect infestation is a sign of a plant weakened by cultural stresses. For plants in shallow pots, the prime suspect is usually always over-watering. If you need/want more help, we can talk more.

TELL CITY—A combination of Heritage Hills' playing its best game and Tell City's playing one of its worst led to the Patriots' beating Tell City 67-42 in boys basketball Friday.
"This is probably the best we've played this year," said Heritage Hills Coach Matt Sisley. "We pushed the ball and got high percentage shots.
And if we didn't have anything (on the break), we pulled it out and ran our stuff. Early in the year we would've turned the ball over if we didn't have anything."
TELL CITY—Tell City freshman center McKenzie Hayes was named to the All-PAC girls basketball team in voting by conference coaches Tuesday.
Hayes was the only non-upperclassman named to the 10-girl honor squad. Seven seniors and two juniors completed the team.
She is the second Tell City freshman to ever make all-conference in girls basketball, joining Jennifer Butler who made All-Big Eight Conference in 1993-94.
TELL CITY - Perry Countians asking for Democrat ballots May 4 will decide a contested race for county commissioner. Chris Coyle, a Tell City native and 1995 graduate of Tell City High School, filed Wednesday morning for the seat now held by Gary Dauby.
In the final year of his first four-year term, Dauby filed last month for re-election.
PERRY COUNTY — One hundred Perry County Scouts sold 984 cases of cookies for a total of 11,808 boxes.
Booth sales in Perry County are from 3:30 to 7 p.m. at Noble's IGA and from 3:30 to 6 p.m. at Fifth Third Bank Friday and from 9 a.m. to noon Saturday at Fifth Third, Noble's IGA and Orscheln Farm and Home Store.
Cookies will also be sold from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Wal-Mart Sunday and Feb. 28 and from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Cash Savers March 6.
TELL CITY - "We are in the throes of some pretty severe budget cuts," Tell City-Troy Township Schools Superintendent Ron Etienne said during a Feb. 9 school-board meeting.
Brainstorming the problem resulted in "several suggestions which we think are going to make a huge impact on the school corporation," he continued before asking the board to consider ideas in three areas as a package.
Make Them Pay
TELL CITY - Judy Pund of Tell City filed her candidacy Tuesday for the office of county treasurer. Pund, who is making her first try at elected political office, was employed by Citizens National Bank, now Old National Bank, from July 1967 to February 2010. That experience, she said, gives her the experience to be an effective treasurer.
TELL CITY - People attending Tell City High School's home basketball game Friday will get a chance to see the school's drum line perform and three people will win cash prizes offered in a band-boosters raffle.
Drum-line members were disappointed with an 11th-place finish at their first contest of the season and hope another chance to perform before a live audience will boost their score at the next one.
LEOPOLD - Only a handful of Perry Central Community School band members were able to compete in district-level solo and ensemble contests due to weather Jan. 30, their director reported, but the few who did performed well.
TELL CITY - The Perry County News is seeking Web site addresses from businesses and nonprofit groups in the county to be included in the 2010 issue of Discover Perry County.
This year's edition of the county-wide community guide will be published next month.
Web site listings can be e-mailed to firstname.lastname@example.com. The deadline for submissions is Feb. 26.
TELL CITY - At a Jan. 21 meeting with Census Bureau Indiana Senior Partnership Specialist Sandy Appler, Tell City Mayor Barbara Ewing, Tell City Complete Count Committee Co-chairs Marcie and Louie Heitkemper, Perry County Auditor Connie Berger and Perry County Administrator Teresa Kanneberg, locations for two local Census 2010 Questionnaire Assistance Centers and Be Counted Sites were established.
For Tell City, the centers will be located at City Hall in the old Tell City Water Department Office, across the hallway from the current Tell City Water Department Office.

|On the Regularity of the Multisublinear Maximal Functions
This paper is concerned with the study of the regularity for the multisublinear maximal operator. It is proved that the multisublinear maximal operator is bounded on first-order Sobolev spaces. Moreover, two key point-wise inequalities for the partial derivatives of the multisublinear maximal functions are established. As an application, the quasi-continuity on the multisublinear maximal function is also obtained.

|Non-uniform Randomized Sampling for Multivariate Approximation by High Order Parzen Windows
We consider approximation of multivariate functions in Sobolev spaces by high order Parzen windows in a non-uniform sampling setting. Sampling points are neither i.i.d. nor regular, but are noised from regular grids by non-uniform shifts of a probability density function. Sample function values at sampling points are drawn according to probability measures with expected values being values of the approximated function. The approximation orders are estimated by means of regularity of the approximated function, the density function, and the order of the Parzen windows, under suitable choices of the scaling parameter.
Keywords:multivariate approximation, Sobolev spaces, non-uniform randomized sampling, high order Parzen windows, convergence rates

This tour was amazing , the tour guide and the driver where amazing as well
Highly recomended tour
Nice half day tour, showing how wind mill are used to get oil out of peanuts, nice area. In Marken nice town, with a visit to wood shoe manufacturing with a very funny guy explaining. Crossing over to Voldeam in a boat with a visit to a cheese factory and tasting and very good lunch in a fish restaurant.
I highly recommend
Good value and saves you a lot of time! You see so much in a short time. Perfect for those who only have a few days in Amsterdam. My husband and I were glad we booked this tour. Will recommend to friends.
Was very good but needed more time.
It was amazing. Tour guide was awesome and the driver was great as well.
Highly recommended!
If you have 6+ hours to spare - DO THIS TOUR! Marken Island, Volendam harbor, immerse you in the dutch countryside. Our tour guides Alma was pleasant, gracious and informative. You get to walk through a lot of the little villages to get to your destinations, which is nice. Wish we had a little more time in Zaanse Schans, but it worked out perfectly in the end. Glad we picked the extended tour versus the shorter one.
I did the tour with my 60yr old mother. Both she and I could not be happier. 10 out of 10 would recommend.
We wish we had done the full-day tour, as we would have liked to spend longer at the different locations. They were all so charming and picturesque. Well worth the price. Highly recommend, but if you have a few extra hours, do the full day.
United Kingdom
You have just enough ime in eah of the places.
The guide was knowledgeable and very friendly. She spoke six languages.
The coach was very comfortable and included audio.
We loved volendam. It was so pretty. Even in the cold winter.
It does involve a bit if walking but it was worth it.
This was an excellent tour. The guide was very knowledgeable and clued on to the needs of the whole group. Gave a great insight into life in the Netherlands. Strongly recommended to know the real Netherlands.
Brilliant experience led by Edgar very helpfully but nothing you could do about the weather which rained all the time! never mind I am sure the countryside would have been interesting but never saw anything through the window!!
Excellent tour! Wonderful tour guide and bus driver.
Highly recommended, worth every singe penny. My Partner and I loved it, best thing we did in Holland
nice trip

Now Trending on Taste of Country Nights: Taylor Swift's 'Boyfriend'
This guy gives the worst excuse ever after being accused of driving under the influence. The Taste of Country Nights team thinks this story is a "Croc" (ba-dum-dum).
This guy gives the worst excuse ever after being accused of driving under the influence. The Taste of Country Nights team thinks this story is a "Croc" (ba-dum-dum).
Taste of Country Nights host Jeremy Robinson and producer Todd found Cecilia to play the fun new game Sing the Rest. It didn't really work out how the guys were planning, with the Texas teen acing the quiz. Listen below for all the fun from Tuesday night's show.
Last night, the Eli Young Band and newcomer Chelsea Bain traded blows until the final minutes of the Showdown on Taste of Country Nights radio. Each artist rallied their fans to support their new song, but in the end, the new ballad from the Texas foursome notched just a few more votes than Bain's 'What if I.'
Luke Bryan is out. The 'Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye' singer toppled all five competitors put in front of him, thanks to votes from fans online and via Taste of Country Nights radio. One by one, Bryan knocked down his fellow country artists, walking straight into Showdown Hall of Fame without even breaking a sweat. That means that this Friday battle will start with two fresh faces in Eli Young Band and Jon Pardi, both armed with new singles about achy minutes with, or without, that special someone.
Today's Showdown is a battle between friends. Luke Bryan and Colt Ford will have to put their personal relationship aside to win the song battle that culminates each night on Taste of Country Nights radio. 'Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye' topped 'One More Sad Song' from Randy Rogers Band on Tuesday, making Bryan's newest single a three-time champion.
Luke Bryan proved that he's one of the hottest country artists on the planet last Friday. The 'Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye' singer's fans mopped up Kelleigh Bannen's contingent to make the fourth single from 'Tailgates on Tanlines' the new Showdown champion. He'll face a repeat challenger today and tonight on Taste of Country Nights radio.
Lauren Alaina becomes the first artist with two songs in the Taste of Country Showdown Hall of Fame after her new single 'Eighteen Inches' topped Toby Keith's 'I Like Girls That Drink Beer' on Tuesday. Her fans once again proved they're amongst the most passionate in country music. Today, and tonight, on Taste of Country Nights, two new challengers will battle.
One more win and she's in. Lauren Alaina is on the verge of having a second song enter the Taste of Country Showdown Hall of Fame. Her new one, 'Eighteen Inches,' mopped up 'Let There Be Cowgirls' by Chris Cagle yesterday and last night on Taste of Country Nights radio. If the third single from 'Wildflower' can top the new song from Toby Keith, it will join 'Georgia Peaches' in the Hall.
Make it three in a row for Lauren Alaina and her new single 'Eighteen Inches.' After another day of heavy voting online and via the telephone on Taste of Country Nights radio, the song narrowly ousted Jana Kramer's hit 'Why Ya Wanna.' Now it's up to fans of the Carrie Underwood co-written ballad to step up once again, if they want to best a man that's been turning out hits for over a decade.
Lauren Alaina has done it again. Though her name has only been 'household' for a year, the 17-year-old country starlet has proven that she's worth a second listen. Now that she's beaten both Jason Aldean and Trace Adkins in the Showdown, she's looking for a third. Will she get another spin on Taste of Country Nights radio?
Jason Aldean needs just one more win for his new song 'Take a Little Ride' to reach the Showdown Hall of Fame, but he'll have to top a woman who has her own song enshrined in the noble halls. Last night on Taste of Country Nights radio, fans reaffirmed yesterday's online voting to push the champion past 'Crying on a Suitcase' by Casey James. Can an17-year-old slow down Aldean's train?
Jason Aldean is a perfect three-for-three in Taste of Country Showdowns. Last night his new song 'Take a Little Ride' took care of Sara Evans' new single 'Anywhere.' The laid-back lead single from his upcoming album will need plenty of support online this afternoon, and tonight on Taste of Country Nights radio to topple a fourth challenger. Remember, five wins in a row gets a song to the Showdown Hall of Fame.

Little League, Big Network
By BONNIE ROTHMAN MORRIS
Published: May 27, 1999
MIKE HAND is fanatical about Little League. A father whose 11-year-old son plays ball, Mr. Hand says he eats and sleeps the Bloomfield Little League in Macon, Ga. He is the embodiment of an aphorism by Yogi Berra: ''Little League is a very good thing because it keeps the parents off the streets.''
This season, Mr. Hand has spent a lot more time indoors than out, in his capacity as the Webmaster for the Bloomfield league. The result of his blood, sweat and five 16-hour days of Web page work is a musical, animated, photograph- and information-stuffed repository for everything that the Bloomfield Little League (www.bloomfieldlittleleague.com) program has to offer.
The Bloomfield site's local flavor may be short-lived. This month, Little League Baseball Inc. in Williamsport, Pa., is to announce the formation of its own Web network, which will work as a closed communication system between headquarters and the leagues. It will also enable every league, every team, every player and virtually every volunteer to create a separate Web site by using templates the umbrella organization is having created.
With 7,500 leagues in 99 countries, 200,000 teams, 3 million players and 1 million volunteers, the network could be host to 4,207,500 individual Web sites.
The new Little League network is very likely to ease some communications and make Web sites fun and easy for neophyte Webmasters. But some local Little Leagues with lovingly constructed sites consider the plan a questionable call because the objectives of the home office clash with the very culture of the Web itself: individual enthusiasts' pride in their highly personal endeavors, bolstered by the regulation-resistant Internet that spawned them. Some local league officials and Webmasters fear that the Little League network will squash their individuality, stifle sponsorship opportunities and make much of their hard Web work irrelevant.
One Webmaster who is apprehensive about losing his site's local flavor is Bill Lindsey, Webmaster for the North Durham, N.C., Little League, which can be found at www.ndll.org, at least for now. ''The national organization has been very good at promoting the Little League's autonomy for years,'' Mr. Lindsey said. ''Local leagues aren't part of the national organization other than the chartered use of the name. Now all of the sudden they're wanting us to give up our individuality.''
''Somehow http://www.littleleague.org /2300513/ just doesn't roll off the tongue,'' said Charlie O'Reilly, the Webmaster of the Rutherford, N.J., Little League site (members.aol.com/rllinfo), via E-mail.
When told of this concern about the loss of domain names, Dennis Sullivan, director of communications for Little League Baseball, said that leagues wishing to keep their names would be able to reroute viewers automatically to the Little League network.
Mr. O'Reilly -- who says his was the first official Little League Web site in the nation when it went on line in 1995 -- is otherwise thrilled at the notion of improved communication between the big guns at Little League Baseball headquarters in Williamsport, Pa., and the little guys.
The international Little League organization (www.littleleague.org) is buoyant about the project and quick to assuage local leagues' doubts. ''This will allow us to protect and authorize use of the Little League trademark on the Internet and in cyberspace,'' said Stephen D. Keener, chief executive of Little League Baseball. ''We will be able to make sure that the information and message that we want to communicate will be information that we want them to hear.'' The network is an effort by Little League Baseball to standardize communication, Mr. Keener said.
Every local Little League is expected to join the new network, Mr. Sullivan said. ''If they're going to use the name Little League, they have to use the server,'' he said. ''Little League not only has the right but the legal or moral responsibility to control how our good name is used.''
Not every league that calls itself Little League is an official chartered league that has paid $1 per player per season to join the program. Right now, any team can call itself Little League, on the Web or off, and some local Little League officials say that many do. Thus, trademark protection is an understandable concern for both the officials in Williamsport and local league officials who pay the fees, stick to the rules and believe in the league's philosophy of ''character, courage and loyalty.''
Little League Baseball, with 100 paid employees serving three million players, has been on line since 1994, when it set up a site to promote that season's Little League World Series. In the 10 days of the series, more than 250,000 people logged onto the site. By 1997, plans for the global network had started to take shape.
The Little League network is being developed by Myteam.com, a five-month-old company in Concord, Mass. Little League Baseball says it will not pay any fee for the service; the site will be supported by advertising and commerce. It is expected to be up and running by September, said Elliot Katzman, chief executive of Myteam.com. The company plans to develop Web sites for nonprofessional national sports organizations, intramural sports groups and college and high-school teams. Little League is the first and only organization to have entered such an arrangement with Myteam.com. Today, the site at www.myteam.com is one page with one bit of information: ''Coming soon!''

Message from Pastor Boshoven

Pastor's Monthly Letter
February, 2015
When making the perfect martini, James Bond says.."Shaken, not stirred." Well according to my guru of all food stuff, Alton Brown, James Bond has got it wrong. Clear drinks need to be stirrred, and since shaking a spirit with ice chills it far colder than necessary, an aromatic spirit such as gin or vermouth will lose some of their flavor when chilled beyond 32 degrees. In other words...shaking a drink does harm to the spirit. (Spirit in this case being another word or alcohol). It dawned on me the other day while I was confronting the issue of how Social Media has changed the landscape our children must navigate, that these issues can be too big and too scary. It's a frightening change in culture that our parents must face. And after reading dozens of posts made by atheists who are out to attack our chlldren's faith, I got a litle bit discouraged and depressed. I must admit that I was shaken. I didn't have easy or simple answers. I didn't see any easy or simple ways to deal with the issue. I felt like David must have felt confronting Goliath.

Plug not firing
I have a kawasaki engine FH721V and the left plug does not fire. I replaced the ignition coil for that side along with new plugs and it still does not fire the left plug, the right plug works fine. This engine has 350 hours of work and it is 7 years old, this problem just startd. What else should I be looking for to get this plug to fire.
Thank you
Can you see that the plug isn't firing? I had a similar problem with my Onan engine, but I think it was more of a fuel or valve related problem. It only did it on a cold start, where it would run on one cylinder until the second one kicked in.
As said above, are you sure there is no fire? Don't know about Kawas. but B&S and Kohler have a weird "kill wire" ass'y connecting the two coils. When a one of the diodes in this goes out, all sorts of weird things happen. I would disconnect the kill wire at the base of both coils and see what happens.
Walt Conner
The problem with the plug not firing started with black carbon on the engine and inside hood. I then put in new plugs gaped .030 and cut the grass for 1 hour. I removed the plugs to check their condition and found the right plug had the gray/black tint that it was firing, but the left plug was in the same new unused condition, not a spec of anything on it. As for the wiring, a wire comes from the main harnes to the right ignition coil, from that connector a second wire goes to the left coil, with nothing inbetween.
If you mowed for an hour on one cylinder and the non-working cylinder still has an original looking plug, I would check the compression first, and look for something broken. Your plug should be gas soaked, or gas should be running out of the muffler.

Brandon Sun - ONLINE EDITION
From Morris to a global leader
FXR Racing plans to double sales to $40M in few years
FXR Racing is not as well-known as other Manitoba brands such as Great-West Life, New Flyer or Richardson Pioneer, but it also makes world-class products.
And while it's not a billion-dollar-a-year company -- more like $20 million -- its owner and founder, Milt Reimer, figures it will double its sales in the next two or three years.
FXR is the largest manufacturer of snowmobile jackets and pants in the world.
Snowmobile enthusiasts already know the name and the brand is moving into snowboarding and other extreme sports.
And taking the lead of another famous Canadian outerwear manufacturer, Canada Goose, it's also broadening its offerings into the fashion side.
This week, the company that started in the basement of Reimer's parents' house near Morris in 1994, held its first dealers conference.
Some of FXR's 250 dealers are in Winnipeg from as far away as Russia, Lithuania and Sweden.
Its bold designs and patented high-tech engineering features -- such as the flotation-assistance technology built into the insulation of most of FXR's pants and jackets -- have made it the favourite brand for high-performance consumers.
At the recent X-Games, FXR sponsored four power sport teams.
"It's a real Canadian success story," said Matt Lester, managing editor of Supertrax magazine, the largest snowmobiling magazine in the world. "In the snowmobile business, it's known as the top clothing line."
In addition to its own growing product line -- some on display in FXR's own flagship stores in the St. Vital Centre and the West Edmonton Mall, and the entirety jam-packed into a 212-page catalogue -- the company has co-branding agreements to make outerwear with Yamaha and Polaris.
It just received a large order from outdoors retailer Cabela's for a line of coats and jackets to be made under another co-branding deal with RealTree, the creator and marketer of RealTree camouflage patterns.
Last year, the company and its 20 employees moved from a shop behind Reimer's house near Sanford to a new office facility in Oak Bluff.
It's already added about 10 people to its Winnipeg operation, not counting workers at a 40,000-square-foot warehouse on McGillvray Boulevard or its FXR Asia office in Seoul, Korea, which manages production in factories in China, Taiwan, Vietnam and Indonesia.
"We were getting so big we had to move to Winnipeg just to retain a higher standard of employee," Reimer said.
"The company has grown so much I have to find people significantly smarter than me to handle things like finance."
Reimer, 50, is probably being modest.
He's intimately involved in much of the company's operations and still maintains the position of chief designer.
He started doing all his manufacturing in Manitoba when there still was a garment industry here but was forced to move production to Asia like just about everyone else.
"It was a tricky transition to Asia for number of years," he said.
"We started paying too much margin to the agencies (who made the connection with the factories) until five years ago. We set up FXR Korea in downtown Seoul. We are involved in so many things, import and export into and out of countries. We have 30 cans (shipping containers) on the water at any given time in the fall."
In addition to the logistics of an international supply chain, it's a business dominated by a one-season sales cycle, which brings its own set of cash-flow nightmares.
At the dealers conference, Reimer went into surprising detail about why the company maintains a hard policy on prompt initial payments.
"I've had to learn the hard way," Reimer said later.
But he was equally thorough in explaining the kind of support the company will provide its suppliers.
Reimer believes FXR is one of the few companies in his field that provides inventory support through the season as opposed to leaving dealers to their own devices after they sell out of popular items.
Scott Harland, the owner of TransCanada Motorsport, a Kawasaki dealer in Brandon, has been selling FXR product since the mid-'90s.
"They are innovators and now FXR has got to the point where it is a world leader," Harland said.
"I consider myself very fortunate to be a dealer."
Harland does not have any exclusivity in the Brandon market but at the same time, he said, the company protects its dealers.
Its numbers are growing, but Reimer said he is content to see that happen incrementally.

Tuberculosis and HIV targeted by student researchers
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
News from Harvard schools, offices, and affiliates
When people who have been cured of tuberculosis (TB) re-develop the disease, are they relapsing or fighting a new strain? How often should HIV/AIDS patients be tested to see if antiretroviral treatment is working?
These questions are being explored by doctoral candidates Ellen "Ellie" Caniglia and Richa Gawande, who are conducting infectious disease studies at Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH). For both Caniglia and Gawande, the scientific explorations reflect their desire to find answers to urgent public health questions that they hope will lead to new ways to treat and prevent infectious diseases, especially those impacting impoverished countries.
"Infectious diseases disproportionately affect developing nations. I've always been drawn to work on problems that impact poor populations," said Gawande, who has seen firsthand the problems of global health inequities during travels to India and Haiti. "I want to be part of the collective effort to understand, treat, and prevent disease," she said. Her interests ultimately led Gawande to HSPH where she is enrolled in the Ph.D. Program in the Biological Sciences in Public Health and works in the laboratory of Sarah Fortune, Melvin J. and Geraldine L. Glimcher Associate Professor of Immunology and Infectious Diseases.

Known popularly as "Stormin' Norman" for a notoriously explosive temper, General H. Norman Schwarzkopf, who commanded the U.S.-led international coalition that drove Saddam Hussein's forces out of Kuwait in 1991, has died. He was 78. The retired career military man had been living in retirement and in Tampa, Florida.

Keywords: General H. Norman Schwarzkopf, military, Desert Storm, Kuwait, Vietnam veteran
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - A much-decorated combat soldier in Vietnam, Schwarzkopf had served in his last military assignment as commander-in-chief of U.S. Central Command, responsible for U.S. military and security concerns in nearly 20 countries from the eastern Mediterranean and Africa to Pakistan.
Born in Trenton, New Jersey in 1934, Schwarzkopf was the son of the Superintendent of the New Jersey State Police, where he worked as a lead investigator on the infamous Lindbergh kidnapping before returning to an Army career and rising to the rank of Major General.
Schwarzkopf's connection with the Persian Gulf region began very early. In 1946, when he was just 12, he and the rest of his family joined their father, stationed in Tehran, Iran, where his father went on to be instrumental in Operation Ajax. Graduating from Valley Forge Military Academy, Schwarzkopf was also a member of Mensa.
Schwarzkopf served as a task force adviser to the South Vietnamese Airborne Division. During that time he was promoted from Captain to Major. When his tour of duty in Vietnam was over, Major Schwarzkopf became a Lieutenant Colonel in 1968, the same year that he married Brenda Holsinger.
Schwarzkopf, in his memoir of his Vietnam years, "It Doesn't Take a Hero" said he staked his reputation as an officer who would risk his life for the soldiers under his command.
Schwarzkopf told his men that they might not like some of his strict rules, but it was for their own good. He told them "When you get on that plane to go home, if the last thing you think about me is 'I hate that son of a _____', then that is fine because you're going home alive."
Promoted to General in 1988, he was appointed Commander-in-Chief of the U.S. Central Command. Based at MacDill Air Force Base, in Tampa, Florida, was responsible at the time for operations in the Horn of Africa, the Middle East and South Asia.
Schwarzkopf prepared a detailed plan for the defense of the oil fields of the Persian Gulf against a hypothetical invasion by Iraq, among other plans.
The Iraq plan served as the basis of the war game of 1990. Iraq invaded Kuwait and Schwarzkopf's plan had an immediate practical application, which was as the basis for Operation Desert Shield, the defense of Saudi Arabia. Operation Desert Storm (co-authored with his deputy commander, Lieutenant General Cal Waller and others on his staff), was the "left hook" strategy that went into Iraq behind the Iraqi forces occupying Kuwait and was widely credited with bringing the ground war to a close in just four days. Highly visible in the conduct of the war, he gave frequent press conferences and was dubbed "Stormin' Norman."
Schwarzkopf is survived by his wife and three children.

DL's defense will try to contain Park Rapids Panthers' explosive offense
An explosive offense will clash with a suffocating defense Friday, as the high-flying Park Rapids Panthers visit the home of the Detroit Lakes Lakers in a Heart O'Lakes Conference showdown.
One or the other will more than likely give, as the Class 4A No. 6 ranked Lakers (5-0) have literally pull the switch on opponents' offenses by allowing just three touchdowns in their first five games.

Over the course of my 9 years as an attorney I have gone through about five of these carts. I sought out and bought this one specifically because it has a different color which makes life in my office easier. With that in mind I am very pleased. I would prefer it have a detachable lid for rainy days, but otherwise I give it two thumbs up.
the handle is difficult to raise up and put down. sometimes it takes me 10 tries to get the handle down. the handle is flimsy. i do use the cart to bring in heavy groceries in the elevator, so i do continue to use it, but the product is poorly made
This is a must-have for anyone living in a high rise to haul stuff up and down - groceries, plants, work items (wine/liquor in my case). Very durable and sturdy. Hard plastic collapses brief case style for easy storage - I leave mine in my car at all times behind the seat. It's a lfe saver for me. Hightly recommend
I'm a lawyer and often have to transport heavy files. This cart is perfect for my needs. Sturdy and easy to set up.
I was impressed with how easily this item was unfolded for use and to fold back up for storage. . Seems quite sturdy, yet light in weight.
Bought this for my daughter as her prior one had broken. She liked this one much better because it has rubber wheels and not the plastic ones. She transports her laundry to community laundry area and says it functions much smoother!
I needed something to haul groceries from my car into my parents' apartment. It was too long a walk to carry heavy beverage bottles, etc. This little gadget folds up like a brief case and I keep it in the back of my car. Opens and closes very easily and seems sturdy.

Wii to Get New Hardware - Possibly Hard Drive? 151
from the wii-drive-this-way-because-we-can dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
I did not notice any flickering or "playability issues," but actually, I think the speed issue is a bugfix rather than a bug. The NES PAL version ran too slow compared to the Japanese and US versions, right? Nintendo fixed that for the Wii release.
While I think having more space would be great, I'd hate to lose the Wii's small form factor in my entertainment cabinet. Maybe it'll be somewhat modular rather than an external box attached via USB or some other wire?
What I'd actually like instead of a hard drive is the ability for the Wii to read directly from the SD card, instead of forcing me to copy the data from the SD card to the Wii's internal memory before using it. Would make managing backups much easier, and even at 300MB, a NeoGeo game can easily fit on a 1GB SD card, which I can then copy to my computer's hard drive for backup when I need more space on the SD card.
Could that be done with a simple firmware update instead of a hardware upgrade?
I never cheated an honest man, only rascals. They wanted something for nothing. I gave them nothing for something. -- Joseph "Yellow Kid" Weil

Update 2013-06-30
DEFINITELY DON'T USE THIS. It looks like I probably reinvented the wheel here. I could have just shoved the new jobs into redis and monitored them... See here.
When you're using Kue to process jobs in a separate process, you can't simply execute a callback when the job is finished. This is an example of communication between the two processes.
I would have liked to have used the
id that Kue provides each job automatically (which I believe is the same
id it receives in Redis) but app.js needs to know the
id of the job before it gets sent to the worker so that it can match the
id when it receives a message.
Please let me know if you have a better idea on how to solve the issue or if you can improve my code.

I'd like to flag a few articles that attempt to find winning stocks in the market haystack.

All three names are fairly well known to investors, particularly ag-equipment maker Caterpillar and chip giant Intel. But in the past couple of years, these stocks, according to Ray Merola, have been underperformers.
Merola describes Caterpillar as a stock with the right amount of pessimism attached to it to be a compelling buy.
"2013 marked a period when just about everything that could go wrong did: four missed earnings reports, revenue declines in all business lines, especially heavy mining equipment, and little prospective enthusiasm for 2014 from either management or the Street," he writes.
Moreover, "Caterpillar is expected to earn only $5.50 per share this year, a whopping 38% decline versus 2012," he adds.
That being said, the stock has risen 6% since an abysmal third-quarter earnings release in October. "When shares refuse to stay down despite all kinds of bad news, the offering just might be one of those gold nuggets," he says.
As for Intel, Merola admits that its positive returns last year don't exactly merit disdain, though the stock has generated its share of short interest.
But on the positive side, the chip maker "has a pristine balance sheet, the dividend yield is greater than most utility sector stocks, and margins remain high." And short interest can help a stock move forward if the shorts have to cover their positions because of some unexpected good news.
Meanwhile, The Street has a piece worth checking out on five stocks with very rich dividends. As you'll see, these names aren't traditional blue-chips found in the Dow 30 but rather companies that pay out unusual levels of income as cash to shareholders.
The names were generated from The Street's proprietary stock-picking model, which projects a stock's total return potential over a 12-month period including both price appreciation and dividends.
Among the stocks on the list are Martin Midstream Partners MMLP -0.028216704288939052% Martin Midstream Partners L.P.

One of the most intriguing questions this year among investors is whether emerging-markets stocks will stage a rebound and are therefore a place to be.
A Wall Street Journal piece points out that the pessimism that shadowed the sector last year has continued into the new year.
"Investors are bailing out of emerging markets from Turkey and Brazil to Thailand and Indonesia, extending a selloff that began last year, amid concerns about faltering economies and political unrest," wrote the Journal.
The Journal writes that Federal Reserve officials sparked a stampede out of emerging markets last spring when they started to drop hints about pulling back, or tapering, stimulus efforts, a shift in policy the central bank is set to start implementing this month. "At the same time, the growth prospects for China and other emerging markets began to pale while the outlook in developed economies brightened."
"Now, investors also are factoring in heightened risks of political instability. Protests in Turkey, Brazil and, more recently, Thailand, already have unsettled money managers," the article states.
To be sure, the stocks in the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets eem 1.24595066035385% iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF U.S.: NYSE Arca 40.63 0.5 1.24595066035385% /Date(1427922000148-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 53040794 AFTER HOURS 40.63 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 3351902 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap N/A Dividend Yield 2.6336253999507755% Rev. per Employee N/A More quote details and news » exchange-traded fund (EEM) on average are trading at 10.2 times next year's earnings, compared with a price/earnings of 15.2 for the Standard & Poor's 500.
But while there may be value in the sector overall, the headlines continue to suggest that the sector overall can continue to feel pressure.

It feels like we've been out at sea, oh
So back and forth that's how it seems
And when I want to talk you say to me
That if it's meant to be it will be
from Justin Bieber (Ft. Jessica Jarrell) – Overboard Lyrics on Genius
Jessica Jarrell normally sings this though.
The reference to being out at sea is because their relationship has been on the rocks and unsteady, like a ship or boat going through vicious tides. She says that she's tried talking to him but, typically for guys, they push it aside and choose not to deal with things straight up.
