Safety of genetically modified foods is debated in California
Some claim modified foods threaten health
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Susan Lang doesn't know for certain if her son's itchy skin and upset stomach were caused by eating food made from crops whose genes were altered in a lab.
But over the years, she believes she's been able to soothe the 8-year-old's eczema and digestive problems by eliminating genetically modified organisms from his diet.
"I know that when I feed this child better, he does better, and feeding him better includes not feeding him GMOs," Lang said.
The Fair Oaks, Calif., woman concedes, however, that her evidence is not scientific, saying she has "more than a hunch, but I don't have proof."
Lang learned about genetic engineering — the process of splicing plant or animal genes to create new characteristics — as she began altering her family's diet to help her son. In the process, she became concerned that consumers don't know enough about the technology that goes into producing a huge part of the American food supply. Eventually, she became a volunteer for the Proposition 37 campaign, which failed on the California ballot last week.
The measure asked voters if food companies should be required to label genetically engineered food. At the core of the debate is a seemingly simple question: Is it safe to eat?
Proposition 37 supporters offer little scientific evidence that genetically modified food is dangerous to human health. A recent French study that found rats developed tumors after months of eating genetically modified corn was quickly panned by the scientific community.
Supporters instead point out perceived deficiencies in most studies that exist, raise questions about the procedures for approving the food and argue that the biotechnology industry has undue influence on government regulators.
"Experts are still de
bating if foods modified with DNA from other plants, animals, bacteria and even viruses are safe," said a radio ad urging a "yes" vote on Proposition 37. "But while the debate goes on, we all have the right to make an informed choice."
Opponents make the case that labeling the food implies health dangers that haven't been proved.
"As a doctor, it concerns me when families are given misleading health information," Dr. Sherry Franklin of San Diego said in a "No on 37" ad.
The ad also pointed out that the American Medical Association has said there is "no scientific justification" for labeling genetically engineered food.
That is true — but incomplete. The association that represents the nation's doctors also calls for greater "availability of unbiased information and research activities on bioengineered foods." And it says there should be a different system for testing genetically engineered food before it hits store shelves. Right now, the testing process is voluntary; the medical association says it should be mandatory.
Most corn, soybeans, canola and sugar beets grown in the United States are engineered to kill pests or withstand being sprayed with weed killers such as Round-Up. Those genetically engineered crops wind up in thousands of nonorganic grocery products in the form of corn syrup, sugar, canola oil or soy-based emulsifiers. Some nonorganic papaya, crook neck squash and corn on the cob is also genetically modified.
"There is no evidence that there is any health issue with any of the products on the market. And there is nothing particular to the technology itself that makes it dangerous," said Kent Bradford, director of the Seed Biotechnology Center at the University of California-Davis, which uses genetic engineering to develop agricultural seeds.
He dismisses the idea that there is not enough testing of genetically engineered food, saying the voluntary testing by companies that modify crops has created a pile of credible evidence.
But such tests are biased by commercial interest and too short to show the long-term impacts of eating engineered food, says anti-GMO activist Jeffrey Smith, who has written two books and made a film criticizing the technology.
Smith lives in Iowa but toured California promoting his work and Proposition 37. His film, "Genetic Roulette," features about a dozen doctors describing health problems — including allergies, diabetes, gastrointestinal distress and autism — they associate with eating GMOs.
"I decided strategically — because I think it's a greater motivation — to focus on the health dangers," said Smith, whose background is in marketing not science.
One solution, he said, is labeling engineered food so people know what they're eating.

Recipe-phile: Everything tastes better outdoors; pack up some salads & fricadelles
While so many great food memories from childhood have drifted away from me, I can still visualize almost everything I ever ate outdoors.
Summertime breakfasts sometimes meant an egg sandwich eaten outside, legs banging against the deck ... or heavily buttered toast, or a half-frozen candy bar slowly melting as I contemplated the empty day ahead.

James Livingstone was an old soldier, said to have fought at the battle of Fontenoy (1745); he secured a position as Haddington Town Piper, one of the town officers. This painting is one of the few detailed illustrations of such a functionary.
This is a gilt wood and plaster framed oil on canvas. The subject is the upper body of a man wearing a jacket and Highland bonnet, carrying lowland pipes under his arm. 1907 auction note on the reverse.
In the eighteenth century most Scottish lowland towns employed both a piper and drummer. Both had the duty of patrolling the streets whilst playing to rouse the townsfolk in the morning (at 4am) and at 8 pm to signal a reasonable time for going to bed. The practice fell away as watches and clocks became more widespread.
Acquisition Number - 2000.293
jameslivingstone44 and melcir.meri added this photo to their favorites.
Definitely a twinkle of musical glee in the eyes of this old gentleman! One cannot help but grin back, wondering what air he was contemplating piping, and to whom! The thought of piping the residents to and from their slumbers is certainly a surprise. No wonder he looks a little impish. An interesting vocation, probably.
I love the idea of this old chap waking everyone up at 4am and piping them to bed at 8pm - wish he could be employed now to keep all today's drunken weekend revellers under control! Thanks for a fascinating insight into Scottish history....

Has anyone done this? If so, can we get the results?
It's obvious that the air intake design is a significant departure from other KTM bikes that I'm familiar with. Until I see one live, it's more difficult to determine if there could be a problem with the seal of the box or if the problem lies in how the filter mounts and seals in place. Every air intake on every bike determines the ford height for water crossings. I wonder how much impact the tube system has on that, probably not much. Finally, before being convinced that there is cylinder or valve damage, the leak down test along with compression values should be reported. It is entirely possible that some bikes were poorly shimmed from the factory and KTM seems to have acknowledged that problem. A disagreement with the design team who implemented the airbox design is another matter, IMHO.
I think there was a legitimate request to activate this thread over this issue and I did not get any information or response when posted to the 1190 thread so I'm going to make it an issue here.......

Now the U.S. defense posture is "pivoting" from the Atlantic to the Indo-Pacific, with the DOD adopting the JOAC or the Joint Operational Access Concept, focusing on the access denial capabilities the PRC has obtained, Japan and its surrounding areas have taken center stage in the US national security calculus. The U.S.-Japan Alliance needs more reinvestment than ever before. Is Japan fit to take up the task as a security provider, not its net consumer? Can the alliance widen its focus still further to safeguard the public common interests that benefit all the partners of the region? Are our two countries capable of investing more into strengthening the alliance in this challenging age of frugality, under a political environment that is shaky at best? Those are the central questions this session will address.
The good news is that after the triple disaster that hit Japan a year ago there emerged ad-hoc yet seamless collaborations between the U.S. Forces and the Japanese forces and later among the three militaries of the U.S., Japan and Australia. This set a precedent for the multinational unity that should be developed to provide security to the entire region. With the traditional hub-spokes model gradually eroding, the alliance architecture should become more multipronged. The bad news, however, needs no elaboration. Tokyo is still self-absorbed with the general elections due anytime soon. Budget constraints appear increasingly burdensome for both the U.S. and Japan. The emergent superpower of China is set to undergo one of its most unpredictable, if not tumultuous, periods. The untested leader of North Korea remains, simply, untested.
Against this backdrop the panel of three experts, two of them having been involved in the US rescue provisions toward Japan, will look into the pending tasks that continue to challenge the two countries, especially their alliance managers. As it is no longer possible for the panel to focus entirely on bilateral issues, the discussions will likely address region-wide aspects as well.

Police Brutality Topics
Democracy Now! has documented scandals of police brutality across the country. Scroll through the stories below to see our coverage of the killing of unarmed teenager Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, and protests calling for the arrest of the officer who shot him. In New York City we reported on the death of Eric Garner after police placed him in a chokehold as he repeatedly told them, "I can't breathe!" The encounter was recorded by an onlooker using his smartphone. We have also documented the killing of Kenneth Chamberlain Sr., a 68-year-old Marine veteran shot by police inside his own home after he mistakenly set off his LifeAid medical alert pendant. In 2011-2012 we covered the police crackdown on the Occupy movement, and spoke to Scott Olsen, who survived two tours in Iraq but nearly died when he was hit with a police projectile at an Occupy Oakland protest. We also interview loved ones of police victims, and feature conversations with advocates like Michelle Alexander, author of the best-selling book, The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness.

- A Wisconsin prosecutor has decided not to bring charges against a white police officer who fatally shot a mentally ill African-American man. In April, Milwaukee Officer Christopher Manney responded to a call about a man sleeping in a park. Before Manney arrived, two other officers had already spoken to the man, Dontre Hamilton, and found he was not causing a problem. But Manney said Hamilton resisted when he tried to frisk him, sparking a...December 24, 2014 | Story

Officers Wenjian Liu and Rafael Ramos were ambushed in broad daylight while sitting in their patrol car in Brooklyn on Saturday.

All quotes tagged Journey
(809 quotes found)
"I love 'Catalyst!' because it's a chance for me to share my experience with others. Participating in a GO Journey changed my life, and I think everyone, member or not, should experience a GO Journey at some point in their lives."
"Life is a journey. We take on paths along the road and find different shops of exquisite work of art like a vase. And each vase can be compared to trust and loyalty, that once broken, will never be put back the way it was before. We then sweep these bits and pieces of broken glasses from where it once was, so as not to step on them and hurt ourselves while we move forward, taking on the path which we choose to travel, and start anew."
"The naming of this 23-man roster is the end of a long and arduous process. Today, a new journey begins as we start final preparations for the 2006 FIFA World Cup. As usual, we will not make any bold statements or predictions. However, I can assure everyone that the team that steps on the field on June 12 against the Czech Republic will be a team that all Americans will be proud of."
"It is vital to gauge from where one comes, where one is on that journey and where one wishes to go."
"The journey begins. I'm 43. I'm ready to cast my lot and find out exactly what it's like to sit in that other chair."
"It's nice to watch the character mature, rather than just to start over again. He gets to continue his journey, which is exciting, I think, for fans, instead of retelling again what we've seen in many different versions."

The August Strindberg Rep Theatre presents
March 13 - 29, 2015
Previews Friday 8 pm and Saturday 2 and 8 pm, March 13-14
Opening Sunday 2 pm, March 15

At the Gene Frankel Theatre
24 Bond Street, New York, NY
Before Hollywood's Queen Christina there was August Strindberg's Kristina. See the role that made Garbo notorious!
KRISTINA is the true story of the scandals leading up to the abdication of Sweden's only queen. Her naturalistic portrayal in this play made Strindberg's name as a revisionist historian and led to vicious attacks on him for the unforgivable sin of telling the truth. We see Kristina struggling against old lovers and former mentors, hiding her impending conversion to Roman Catholicism, putting on ballets to distract from her financial and sexual misconduct, fighting her feminine nature and finally succumbing to it. Kristina wore pants, which were first adopted by women 300 years later; she struggled with a world not ready to accept a strong-willed woman in a position of authority...supreme authority in her case.
A new translation by Wendy Weckwerth premieres here. Director is Whitney Aronson.
Stars Ivette Dumeng as Kristina with Sergio Castillo, Martin Boersma, Brent Shultz, Amy Fulgham,* Jacob Troy, Al Foote III , Steve Shoup,* Eric C. Bailey,* Michael Cirelli and Christine Nyland; stage manager, Hanna Delmore.
Designs by Miriam Crowe, lighting; Jessa-Raye Court, costumes; Mikhail Poloskin, projections and graphics; and Andy Evan Cohen, sound; produced by Robert Greer*, artistic director of the August Strindberg Repertory Theatre.
*These actors and stage manager(s) are appearing courtesy of Actors' Equity Association.
Produced with the cooperation of Theater Resources Unlimited

|A very good match ... Germany rose up to the occasion and played great attacking wise. Ricardo left a lot to be desired.
Agreed. Ricardo should have done better. After all the crap that Lehmann spewed about Ricardo and his teammates, I thought that he would play with the fire he had in Germany '06. I originally bet on the Portugese, but I immediately started to worry after seeing their nervous faces during their anthem. Pepe was shaking, and Ronaldo looked close to tears. The major difference is that Portugal left their shooting boots at home and weren't focused on defending during freekicks. It's a shame 'cause they could have won. Germany left plenty of holes in their box that more on-form strikers would have taken advatage of. Simão was terrible. I wish Ricky Q. had his chance. Ronaldo was not up to par, but I don't particularly blame him for the loss. He was starved of good service. Germany deserved the win because Portugal psyched themselves out before the first kick.
The Germans proved once again nobody, NOBODY, should write them off. It was a strange game. The first 20mins were awful, I mean I almost slept, then the Germans hit on the counter attack and the game went crazy. Two goals conceded by Portugal by set pieces, sorry Mr. Scolari but if you didn't listen to bells from Charisteas's header 4 years ago, I'm not the one to blame The defenders and Ricardo (what the hell he was doing off his posts there) were out of the game in those goals. I fell sorry for Deco, it was him against the Germans tonight. The rest of Portugal's midfield was absolutely awful.
And Low decided to put Podolski on his proper position and surprisingly he didn't score Ballack was awful for another night, yet he managed to score again. Schweinsteiger proved he should be a starter in every game for Germany and hopefully we won't see any more of this Gomez who calls himself a footballer.

The letter was printed quarterly and distributed by hand to the local area. Gaming was not originally part of Project Mayhem.

Samsung's unique and innovative 3D V-NAND flash memory architecture is a breakthrough in overcoming the density limitations, performance and endurance of today's conventional planar NAND architecture. 3D V-NAND is fabricated by stacking 32 cell layers vertically over one another rather than decreasing the cells dimensions and trying to fit itself onto a fixed horizontal space resulting in higher density and better performance utilizing a smaller footprint.
The Samsung 850 EVO is a top pick SSD at a great price. The benchmarks are showing it's just as fast as the 850 Pro (maybe 3% slower) but also about has about 15% reduced cost Vs the Pro. Boots extremely fast, games are loading quickly, and the provided software by Samsung is convenient (Magician.)

Project Zomboid is the ultimate in zombie survival. Alone or in MP: you loot, build, craft, fight, farm and fish in a struggle to survive. A hardcore RPG skillset, a vast map, a massively customisable sandbox and a cute tutorial raccoon await the unwary. So how will you die?
Picked up Project Zomboid today, while it was on sale, to play couch Co-Op/Split Screen with SO. Besides some minor set-up aches getting DS4 controller support * 2, it's running and seems good. (I think after un-checking "hide DS4 Controller" it all started working as expected. Press A [or X on DS4] to load in.) Both SO and I are able to play using controllers and it seems fun so far.
Carmageddon: Reincarnation is the driving sensation where pedestrians (and cows) equal points and your opponents are a bunch of crazies in a twisted mix of automotive killing machines. It's the antidote to racing games!!
Pros: Wrecked'm! It's like the original Carmageddon. Even the football stadium with the ped lightning gun.... *ZAP* ZAP *ZAP.* The game looks beautiful. For being a _beta_ I'm surprised how well it preformed.
ASUS RT-N16 Wireless Router is a Multi-Functional Gigabit Wireless N Router with USB storage,printer and media server
Pro: This router was primarily used for LAN connections (because wifi was horrible) and that worked fine for over a year, but then quickly turned south in that I experienced frequent and what seemed to be random reboots that required a power cycle (even using LAN only, no Wifi.) After trying to resolve the issues myself I reached out for support at ASUS and was told my product is out of warranty. I verified with my Newegg invoice that I was IN warranty (by 2 months) and yet tech support refused to support this product stating that his system was reporting I'm out of warranty and can't be helped without additional fees. I provided the invoice with purchase date and yet that changed nothing. Customer service then direct me to 'escalate' the case using a web-form and that someone will review the issue as long as I provide a copy of the invoice and time of purchase, which I did. After waiting over a month, I received NO reply... This router is worthless at this point and I went out and purchased a new NETGEAR router because of this horrible experience with ASUS.
The USB-BT400 is a Bluetooth Smart Ready USB adapter with new Bluetooth 4.0 capabilities. It connects you with a multitude of compatible devices and supports Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to reduce power consumption. In dual-mode, the USB-BT400 maintains full backward compatibility with Bluetooth 3.0, 2.1, and 2.0.
Pro: Quick pair with controller (shows as `Game Controller` when adding.) If asked, use password 0000 to establish a connection. Once paired, works great to control PC games using a PlayStation 4's DS4 (Dual Shock 4) controller (using DS4WIndows). After connected (and close enough to it's range) it has a good ping and works as expected.

It may represent a transition object between an active comet and the defunct comets that are thought to make up a significant percentage of the near-Earth asteroid population. The orbit of comet Encke is very stable both in its size and...

Report: Trade interest in Paul Pierce around league "lukewarm"
Feb 20, 2013, 3:58 PM EDT
Who is looking to pick up a 35-year-old player who is shooting the lowest percentage of his career this season and is due to make $15.3 million next season?
When you say the name Paul Pierce we think of the NBA finals MVP and Celtic icon. But GMs see the numbers above, see the increasing tax levels and repeater tax that are about to start to kick in and are balking at trade talks involving the veteran forward, reports A. Sherrod Blakely of CSNNE.com.
I don't want to see Pierce moved — I like it that some players spend their entire careers in one place. Tim Duncan is a Spur. Kobe Bryant a Laker. Pierce is a Celtic. Not a Sun or a Net or anything else. He's a Celtics and it would be weird to type anything else.
In the end, I think the Celtics roster is going to add some depth on the fringes — maybe move Fab Melo or role players — then come back next season with a hopefully healthy Rajon Rondo, KG and Pierce and see if they have one more run in the last year of Pierce's contract.
Because nobody else wants him and that deal right now.

Paul Pierce will retire a Celtic!!!!
- pantsfreezone - Feb 21, 2013 at 4:03 AM
Hahaha. Lukewarm. Nobody wants an old, terrible player whose shooting near a career worst percentage, who can't defend without fouling and makes too much money.
The Celtics should trade Pierce for a pack of bubblegum. And it makes me chuckle to read these Boston sports fans' trade machine ideas. Bass and Terry for Josh Smith…hahahahahaha

The room was loud, but a good loud, you can hear music coming from the bars around the hostel. So be prepared for a not-so-quiet night, but it is not unpleasant: you can feel the atmosphere of Lisbon! The location is very central, very close to Rossio train station. The atmosphere around the hostel is very lively. It could be a problem, but even for me who went to bed fairly early and got up early too, it was ok. Staff was very nice and spoke perfect French!

Iraq War
Pascrell voted for the Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002 that started the Iraq War.[1]
Environmental record
For more information on environmental legislation, see the Energy and Environment Policy Portal
On March 7, 2007, the House passed H.R.569 - To amend the Clean Water Pollution Act to reauthorize sewage grants[2], sponsored by Rep. Bill Pascrell (D-N.J.), which would reauthorize federal grants to municipalities and states to control sanitary sewer overflows. At the time of the bill's passage, many U.S. communities had inadequate sewer systems in need of redesign. Billions of dollars in local and state funds had been spent across the U.S. on the problem, and the federal funding was expected to ease that burden somewhat. [3]
On March 7, 2007, the bill passed the House in a vote of 367-58.
- Main article: U.S. water management legislation#H.R.569 - To amend the Clean Water Pollution Act to reauthorize sewage grants
Support for gun control
Pascrell cosponsored H.R 1022 (Assault Weapons Ban Reauthorization Act of 2007) on March 13, 2007.[4]
- Main article: U.S. gun legislation
Pascrell was born January 25, 1937 in Paterson, New Jersey. He graduated from Fordham University. Pascrell was elected to the New Jersey General Assembly in 1988. He was also elected as Mayor of Paterson, New Jersey's third largest city, in 1990.
Pascrell is Italian-American and has been outspoken about the representation of Italians-Americans in the media regarding what he sees as negative stereotypes in shows such as HBO's The Sopranos.
Congressional career
Pascrell gave up his seat as Mayor after he was elected to the House in 1996, defeating one-term Republican Bill Martini. He has been reelected four times, usually by a large margin.
2006 elections
In 2006, the Republicans nominated Jose M. Sandoval to face Pascrell in his November 2006 bid for reelection. (See U.S. congressional elections in 2006) [1] Pascrell retained his seat.

Strange growth
What would cause this? This is a Brigadoon rose. It already is through its first flush, is very healthy, but the new growth looks weird and definitely not typical of this rose. I don't know what to do with it, cut some of it off? alll of it off? keep the central bud? Why would it do this? Thanks for any help from the experts!
Ok then! Thanks experts! I was not concerned about the color, more the change in growth habit since this is a hybrid tea. But I'll see what happens! I'm afraid those wimpy stems won't hold up the roses. This is a super healthy rose in prime real estate at my house, and one of my favorites! If only all my roses got this kind of sun exposure....but this is what it normally looks like - 1 bloom per stem.
I hope that they are right that it is normal growth, but I would not dismiss the possibility, yet, that the plant received a "boost" from a growth hormone such as low concentration round-up (has their been spray activity in the area?).
If you give the name of the hybrid tea, perhaps someone can tell you if their plant of that variety sometimes exhibited such "grandiflora like" behaviour.
Here is a link that might be useful: grandiflora
That's what Brigadoon does -- particularly in California. It's even more striking with one of my personal favorites, 'Gardens Of The World.'
You do NOT have a problem, Beth. You have a very happy rose, and one that excels in Southern California gardens.
I agree - your picture is that of a VERY happy rose, putting out new growth. Looks as if it is planning on getting much bigger - not unusual at all here in CA. Congratulations! Just stand back and let it be - as said above, those red spindly new canes will turn green and get much fatter & stiffer as they mature.
Just to pile on a bit, here, be thankful for that vigorous growth! Many HT's look like that (or worse) when they really get the growing itch. It's frustrating to have a huge cane jump up about 3 feet and have multiple buds with no 5-leaflet leaves to properly mark the debudding point. Not to worry - that's what many of them do when they get really excited to grow.

Brandon Workman Rumors
Quick Hits: Workman, Ogando, Rockies, Loria
Twins outfielder Byron Buxton is the top prospect in baseball, per MLB.com's top 100 prospects. The Cubs have two prospects in the top five – Kris Bryant (second) and Addison Russell (fifth). The Dodgers have three in the top 13 – Corey Seager (seventh), Julio Urias (eighth), and Joc Pederson (13th). The Cubs and Twins are the two teams with five prospects in the top 50. Here's more news from around the league.
- The Red Sox will use Brandon Workman as a reliever this season, reports Jason Mastrodonato of MassLive.com. The move could be a big stabilizing influence for Workman, who dealt with fatigue the last couple seasons. Mastrodonato points to Wade Davis as a best case scenario. Davis was an indifferent starter in previous campaigns, but he dominated out of the pen last year. Some pitchers, like Davis, experience a notable velocity increase in relief work. It will be interesting to see how Workman reacts.
- Boston appears to have a full bullpen without the presence of Workman, writes Rob Bradford of WEEI.com. Recent additions Alexi Ogando and Robbie Ross join Koji Uehara, Junichi Tazawa, Edward Mujica, Craig Breslow, and Anthony Varvaro. Many clubs were concerned about Ogando's injury history, but the Red Sox liked what they saw while scouting the righty. He passed his physical and should be prepared for a normal preseason workload.
- The Rockies decided to stand pat rather than rebuild due to the quality of talent on the roster, CEO Dick Monfort tells Thomas Harding of MLB.com. Healthy seasons from Troy Tulowitzki and Carlos Gonzalez plus continued breakouts from Nolan Arenado, Corey Dickerson, and Charlie Blackmon could produce a special offense. While pitching is always a problem, Monfort is pleased with the products of the farm.
- Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria is more optimistic about the current club than the pricey 2012 version, he tells Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald. Loria is pleased with the overhauled infield, Giancarlo Stanton's long term extension, and the acquisition of Mat Latos. He doesn't know what will happen with Dan Haren,

Red Sox Notes: Draft, Betts, Lester
The Red Sox have fewer wins than the Royals since the start of the 2012 season, but having losing years before and after a World Series victory has its advantages, Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports writes. They're going to have a very valuable top draft pick next year (if the season ended today, they would pick in the top ten, just as they did in 2013) and a bigger international signing pool. Meanwhile, they retain the financial edge they have over other teams — they're already reloading for 2015 with the acquisitions of Yoenis Cespedes and Allen Craig, along with the impending addition of Rusney Castillo, all of whom will have significant salaries going forward. Here are a couple more quick notes out of Boston.
- The Red Sox placed Mookie Betts, Brandon Workman and Rubby De La Rosa on revocable waivers today, Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe tweets. All are valuable young players, so it's a strong possibility they'll be claimed, at which point the Red Sox will pull them back. It probably isn't likely any of them will be traded.
- With Cespedes and Craig in the fold and Castillo soon to join, manager John Farrell says the Sox will hunt for pitching this offseason, WEEI.com's Alex Speier tweets. Boston, of course, dealt Jon Lester and John Lackey at the trade deadline, although it remains possible that the Red Sox could re-sign Lester when he becomes a free agent this winter.

AL Notes: Dempster, BoSox Payroll, Drew, O's, Mulder
Earlier today, Ryan Dempster announced he will not pitch in 2014 forfeiting the $13.25MM he was due in the final year of his pact with the Red Sox. Boston, however, does not intend to pursue Ervin Santana, Ubaldo Jimenez, or other free agent starting pitching, writes WEEI.com's Alex Speier. The Red Sox expect to slot Felix Doubront into the starting rotation and Brandon Workman into the swingman role with their stable of pitching prospects providing depth, according to Speier. Elsewhere in the American League:
- Speier notes in the same article the Red Sox have newfound financial flexibility with Dempster's salary now off the books. Boston projects to have a 2014 payroll of $176MM (including $9MM allocated for in-season trades and roster additions), a $13MM cushion against the luxury tax. The Red Sox could re-sign Stephen Drew, but Speier wonders whether common ground can be found.
- GM Ben Cherington passed on the opportunity to discuss the Red Sox's unexpected financial windfall saying the focus should be on Dempster, reports the Boston Globe's Pete Abraham.
- Joel Sherman of the New York Post tweets the Yankees are not considering any additional free agent acquisitions, which would rule them out on Drew.
- Jimmy Paredes, claimed on waivers yesterday by the Orioles, is a prime candidate to lose his 40-man roster spot once the team makes its signing of Suk-Min Yoon official, according to MASNsports.com's Roch Kubatko. Yoon has passed his physical, per multiple reports.
- Mark Mulder, who saw his comeback bid with the Angels end when he ruptured his left Achilles tendon, told reporters, including Alden Gonzalez of MLB.com, he has yet to decide whether he will attempt another return in 2015. "I'd love to say yes, but I don't know. I have to wait and see what the doctors say — see what the process is of how healthy I can get it, how good it feels." Mulder undergoes surgery Monday and the rehab could last up to eight months.

Cliff Lee Rumors: Tuesday
Phillies lefty Cliff Lee is "eminently available," writes Jon Heyman of CBS Sports. Given that the 34-year-old has at least $70MM remaining on his contract through 2015, his availability has sparked a debate over his true trade value. The latest:
- The Phillies have no no obvious bidders for Lee at this point, tweets Heyman, who adds that he would be surprised to see a team give up three top prospects and take on the remaining $70MM on Lee's contract.
Earlier Updates
- The Red Sox are no longer pursuing Cliff Lee, according to Jim Bowden of ESPN and MLB Network Radio (Twitter link).
- There is "very little chance" of the Phillie trading Lee, GM Ruben Amaro Jr. said on MLB Network on Tuesday afternoon.
- The Red Sox feel a trade for Lee is highly unlikely, tweets Yahoo's Tim Brown, but Jake Peavyand Bud Norris are still in play for them.
- The Phillies are believed to have asked for a package headed by Bogaerts and Brandon Workman, plus a big league ready outfielder, according to ESPN's Jayson Stark. Stark's source agrees with the consensus, that the Sox won't give up Bogaerts.
- Though the Phillies want Bogaerts as the centerpiece of a Lee deal, the Red Sox "view his inclusion as a non-starter and will not consider proposals that involve him," writes John Tomase of the Boston Herald. He says the Red Sox are willing to deal multiple top ten prospects though.
- The Phillies won't settle for anything less than top Red Sox prospect Xander Bogaerts at the head of any package for Lee, tweets Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe.
- The Red Sox are the biggest player in the Lee derby, writes Heyman. "If there are other teams heavily involved in talks for Lee, they are doing it in an extremely stealthy manner," he adds.

Latest On A's-Red Sox Andrew Bailey Talks
8:49am: The talks are not that far along and the A's have not asked for Middlebrooks, tweets ESPN's Buster Olney. The A's would need more, but WEEI's Alex Speier tweets that they've liked Lars Anderson, Raul Alcantara, and Brandon Workman. Things are currently quiet on the Bailey-Red Sox trade front, tweets Gordon Edes of ESPNBoston.
6:39am: The A's asked the Red Sox for third base prospect Will Middlebrooks, writes the Boston Globe's Nick Cafardo. It's probably safe to assume that Middlebrooks, 23, is not one of the prospects mentioned in Gammons' proposal.
5:01am: Peter Gammons of MLB Network tweets that the Athletics are considering a trade offer from the Red Sox that includes Josh Reddick and prospects in exchange for Andrew Bailey. Jed Lowrie is not in this proposal.
The 24-year-old Reddick appeared at all three outfield spots for the Sox in 2011 (earning stellar reviews from UZR and DRS in an admittedly small sample) and hit a solid .280/.327/.457 in 278 plate appearances.
The A's stand to lose their entire starting outfield of David DeJesus (already signed with the Cubs), Coco Crisp, and Josh Willingham to free agency this offseason, so it makes sense that they would have interest in controllable outfielders.
The two teams were reportedly set to meet on Tuesday to discuss a potential Bailey trade, though is is the first we've heard of the results.

AL East Notes: Red Sox, Showalter, Sabathia
Among AL East clubs, only the Yankees will play on the season's first day Thursday. Here's the latest from the division…
- Relievers Dennys Reyes and Matt Albers made Boston's 25-man roster, reports WEEI's Alex Speier. Hideki Okajima and Alfredo Aceves were optioned to Triple-A. GM Theo Epstein explained to reporters that the choices were about "preservation of pitching depth," since he would have lost Reyes and Albers if they didn't make the team. Scott Lauber of the Boston Herald has quotes from Okajima's agent Joe Rosen on the decision.
- Orioles manager Buck Showalter stirred the pot in this Men's Journal interview with Paul Solotaroff, saying, "I'd like to see how smart Theo Epstein is with the Tampa Bay payroll." Epstein has already accepted an apology from Showalter on the comments, tweets Michael Silverman of the Boston Herald.
- Red Sox 2010 second-round pick Brandon Workman changed agents from Kevin Hubbard to Jeff Berry of CAA Sports, reports Speier. Workman had signed for $800K, about $165K over slot. Track all the latest in our Agency Database.
- Another strong year might make C.C. Sabathia the Yankees' best free agent signing ever, suggests Joel Sherman of the New York Post. The contract could end up being a three-year, $60MM deal if the lefty opts out after the season.

Junction Box in Brick Wall
The Junction box that supports a light fixture on my porch is loose. The box is only held in by the wires connected to the box. It is a brick wall and block wall in a 65-year old house. I cannot see inside enough to see where it is supposed to be attached to the house. Does anyone know how these are attached in a brick and block wall?
One guess is that the box was originally cemented in, but it does not seem to me that the mortar would be strong enough to hold the light fixture??
While other materials will hold the box, my suggestion is to get a tube of NP-1, a urethane sealant available at most commercial roofing wholesalers.
Blow out all the dust possible first. Put as much NP-1 as possible between the box and the brick. Do not disturb it for a week. Then remount the fixture.
The NP-1 is available in colors. Once opened, it must be used within a couple of days as it will get too stiff to be applied with a caulking gun. There are other urethane sealants that are excellent but some are not stiff enough to stay in place when they are applied for this purpose.
I've had good luck just using gray concrete silicone. We tap in a shim or two first to hold the box firm then apply the silicone. The fixture can be installed immediately due to the shims holding the box. As a home owner however you have the luxury of waiting to install the fixture. Once the silicone dries it conforms to the uneven surfaces of the brick and the box, and that box will not come loose.
If the box is like the ones in my house it has a mounting plate (wider than the box) on the back that sticks out to each side or to the top and bottom. When mounted in cement the plate extends into the mortar. Even though the mortar has broken loose, the plate may still be positioned behind a brick so that the box cannot come completely out. Adding some shims and the NP-1 should stabilize it enough to hold solidly.
Thanks to all your suggestions, I did this as follows:
Used plastic shims as suggested, but instead of polyurethane or silicone caulking, used hydraulic cement to secure them in place. There was not enough space between the brick and junction box to worry about expansion of the material as it cures. I gently knocked the shims in and used my fingers to force a fairly thick mixture of the material around them. Seems very solid. and if something goes wrong I could drill or chip out this material, whereas PU caulking could be a problem to clean out.
I was concerned about the long curing time of some of the caulks (7-10 days) and cold weather was on the way. The mortar-like material cures in 1-2 days and has a fairly wide temperature tolerance.
Sorry to take so long to get back to report, but could not get to this job earlier.
Thanks all and happy holidays!

RIO DE JANEIRO -- Brazilian independent oil producer OGX said that local regulators had approved the company as a deepwater operator, opening the door for OGX to bid for more challenging exploration acreage in upcoming bid rounds.
ANP, granted OGX an Operator A qualification, which company officials had previously said they expected before the end of 2012. Previously, OGX's Operator B qualification limited the company to operating shallow water and onshore blocks.
The new qualification will allow OGX to operate in the deep and ultra-deep waters where some of Brazil's most promising oil discoveries have been made in recent years. Some deepwater blocks in Brazil's equatorial margin are expected to be up for bid in Brazil's 11th round concession auction that is currently set for May. The auction still depends on lawmakers passing a new law on oil royalties, although voting is expected to take place this year.
OGX currently operates shallow water blocks in the Campos and Santos basins. But the company also holds a 50% stake in five deepwater blocks in the Espirito Santos Basin. Operatorship of those blocks is under the control of the local unit of the French oil and natural gas company Perenco, which has a 40% stake in the blocks. China's Sinochem also recently completed its purchase of a 10% stake in the blocks.
