Air Force Major Phil Ambard was a family man.
"From the time he was a young Airman Basic through his commission as an officer 16 years later, he has been warmly greeted and taken care of at each USO," said his wife of 23 years, Linda Ambard. "When we flew to Germany for the first time, we had five children under the age of ten, but we were made to feel like the USO was ours—that we were family."
"This USO family has never meant more to me than when my Phil was killed in action on 27 April 2011."
Her Phil was among eight Air Force officers shot and killed at Kabul International Airport by a 50-year-old Afghan Air Corps pilot.
Linda was left devastated and in a fog.
Their five children, including three Air Force Academy graduates and one who was attending West Point, flew to Dover Air Force Base from all around the world to meet their mother and repatriate the remains of their father.
The pain was so fresh; Linda couldn't coordinate any of her own travel. She had trouble remembering the gates and felt dizzy navigating the crowds.
"At every single airport where there was a USO, we were each met by USO staff who walked us to our gate, brought us drinks, and who stayed with us the entire time," she said. "They didn't know us, yet they stood with each and every one of us."
In Texas, while buying a magazine, she learned that all of her bank accounts had been frozen due to Phil's death. The USO representative was quick to offer her some money, pay for her purchase and even spoke to the bank on her behalf.
"When we arrived at Dover, the USO came out with many volunteers," said Linda. "Once again they had representatives for each of us. They allowed us to talk, make jokes—our family's way of dealing with the stress—and they sat with me as I broke down yet again."
Afterward, the family returned to Colorado Springs for the funeral.
"The USO ensured we were all seated together and near the front of the airplane," she said. "This was no easy feat to get seven of us together, yet they did it for us."
Eight months later, Linda knew that she couldn't celebrate Christmas at home, so the family flew to Hawaii. On the return trip, she and her cadet son spent 10 hours in the USO where their story eventually got out.
"The USO staff once again bent over backwards to make sure that we knew that people were walking with us and that we were still important to the USO family," said Linda, "and I just want you to know that the USO was important to him and since his passing, the USO has meant so much to the Ambard and Short families."
"He started as an immigrant boy," she said, "but died as a man willing to stand up for the freedoms of all. He truly was an American hero." — By Joseph Andrew Lee, USO Staff Writer
Phil Ambard, 44, was born in Caracas, Venezuela. He didn't speak a word of English when he moved to the United States at the age of 12. After graduating from high school, he enlisted in the United States Air Force as an Airman Basic. He rose to the rank of Senior Master Sergeant (select) before he was commissioned as an officer and then rose to the rank of Major before he made the ultimate sacrifice for his country. He had recently graduated from Denver University with a Ph.D and his second master's degree.
He is survived by his children Patrick, Emily, Alex, Tim and Josh, his daughter-in-law Karla and his wife Linda.

Assessing the Impact of Global Economics on Industrial Developments and Inter-Ethnic Relations in Penang, MalaysiaJacobsen, Michael (Frederiksberg, 2010)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Due to the increasingly integration and thus inter-dependency between the global economy, a given national economy and their societal embedment a triangulation between the three elements is a must if one is to understand the dynamic processes between them. This article focuses especially on the national economic and societal aspects of such a triangulation thus positioning the national dependencies of the global economy in the background. The notion of triangulation is perceived by the author to be more holistic and relational oriented compared to an approach based on decoupling. The latter aims through sector defined studies to assess the level of connectivity between global and national economics as well as between them and their societal embedment in order to detect whether there are potential fault-lines between the three thus mitigating the notion of decoupling. This article applies a triangular approach on the electronic and electrical manufacturing sector in Penang. It concentrates in particular on how companies within this sector relate to pertinent governmental initiated industry policies and the impact of the inter-ethnic related affirmative action policy in this connection. The global aspect of the triangulation has thus been put on a back burner in this study, as the article emphasises the importance of pointing towards the inter-dependency between the political, the inter-ethnic and the economic sectors in Penang, as they are perceived to condition each other.

Exploring the 'Black Whole' in Institutional TheoryJakobsen, Michael (Frederiksberg, 2014)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The aim of this article is to take a critical look at how to perceive informal institutions within institutional theory. Douglas North in his early works on institutional theory divided the national institutional framework into two main categories, formal and informal institution or constraints as he called them. The formal constraints consisted of political rules, judicial decisions and economic contracts, whereas informal constraints consisted of socially sanctioned norms of behaviour, which are embedded in culture and value systems. As formal constraints are straight forward to deal with the informal ones are much more vaguely defined and thus more difficult to grasp analytical. This imprecise perception of informal constraints is surprising as they basically constitute the foundation of the society in question, whereas formal constraints 'only' constitute the functional aspects of the state apparatus in that particular society. In order to, however, begin excavating what lies further behind the informal constraints and their impact on the functionality of the formal constraints it is important to take an overall critical look at the way in which institutional theory relate to a given societal context. This article suggest that this is done by first employing an overall international business (IB) approach to analyse a national economy, in this case the Malaysian economy. This will not, however, be done according to the generally accepted procedure in IB studies using either a firm specific or a generic market-based approach, but rather by employing a combination of selected IB theories and a 'glocalised reading' on how the relationship between the global economy and a national economy pan out and how this translate into impacting a given societal setup. In other words, IB theories are not only employed in the economic sphere, but also confronted with a variety of societal factors that have a positive or negative impact on the explanatory power of the individual IB theories employed.

Labour Issues in the Construction Industry in the New ChinaCostello III, Charles S. (Frederiksberg, 2007)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The crane has been an ancient symbol of longevity in China carrying with it intimation of distinctive principles of ancient China; harmony, patience and graceful coexistence with nature. It is ironic that the construction crane is the new symbol of a changing land, where old hutong neighborhoods are disappearing as fast as the bird and its habitat. Is this new crane helping to create a harmonious society, as the HuWen administration would have you believe? The economic boom fueled in large part by the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games brings with it many new construction jobs, labour issues and in some cases new forms of corruption. Does this development reinforce solidarity and good working conditions in a country where unions are largely controlled by the government? Or do business networks, guanxi, continue to dominate business relationships and hamper the achievement of good working conditions? These questions will be examined, including issues such as corruption, safety and working conditions. Comparisons to labour issues in the United States will be included.

Feminist Responses to Reproductive Policy in SingaporeLyons, Lenore (København, 2005)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper examines recent debates about reproductive policy in Singapore by examining the responses of two different groups of women - women Members of Parliament and feminist activists. Women currently make up 10% of MPs in Singapore. Although this figure is low when compared to average rates of female representation globally, it is the highest level in Singapore since Independence. All these women are members of the ruling People's Action Party (PAP) in power since 1959. While publicly supportive of the view of the PAP male elite, this group of women has introduced a level of critique into reproductive policy not previously seen by the Singapore public. Local women's groups too have played a visible role in public debates about population policy. The feminist group, the Association of Women for Action and Research (AWARE) has had a long interest in reproductive policy issues and released its own position paper to address the government's recent policy making. This paper examines the responses of these two groups of women towards the PAP's pro-natalist stance. It explores the extent to which these women have challenged the PAP as well as the obstacles to an independent feminist voice on population matters Keywords: Singapore, population policy, reproductive policy, total fertility rate, feminism, women in politics URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7402 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: The paper addresses the importance of network trade between Malaysia and China and assesses the extent of product upgrading in components traded. The study brings to the fore the following. First, China is emerging as an important market for component imports relative to component exports. As such the increase in two-way flows of parts and components for further processing and development, implying a shift away from assembly-end operations, remains insignificant. Second, network trade appears to have improved the quality of exports (reflecting the 'moving up of the value chain') destined to China, but the gaps between the unit values of export and imports have narrowed in the recent past, implying less product development. network trade, two-way trade, unit values, relative unit values, product upgrading URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7403 Files in this item: 1

Transnationalism and the 'Chineseness' of Enterprise DevelopementGomez, Edmund Terence (København, 2006)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The concept of transnationalism is characterised by an important contradiction. While it makes an important contribution to the literature on identity by focussing on the themes of hybridity and pluralism, when it discusses the issue of transnational capital, it falls into the trap of essentialising ethnicity. Transnational theorist argue that there exists a pan-ethnic unity among the Chinese diaspora that would enable this community to emerge as a new economic force globally. The case studies in this essay reveal, however, that transnational networks do not influence the way ethnic groups do business with co-ethnics in other countries. This study argues that there is significant competition among Chinese-owned enterprises, which explains the dynamism of these firms. There is also much evidence of inter-ethnic corporate ties involving Chinese firms. These findings bring into question the importance of common ethnic identity in transnational business transactions undertaken by the Chinese companies.

A Case of Danish Multinationals and their Subsidiaries in P.R. China and IndiaWorm, Verner; Xu, Xiaojun; Shinha, Jai b.P. (København, 2005)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: By drawing on a selective review of literature, we propose that the culture of Danish multinationals and transnational organizations interface with the Chinese and Indian societal and managerial cultures in order to create hybrid cultures in Danish subsidiaries in P. R. China and India. The hybrid culture moderates the relationships between the forms of knowledge and internationalization of multinationals on one hand and the transfer of knowledge on the other. It is postulated that stable cultural frames of the Danes and Chinese managers, both having stable cultural frame, will require long drawn efforts to overcome the cultural distance and transfer the various forms and levels of knowledge in the initial years of the subsidiaries. On the other hand, Indians' style of switching their cultural frames will create less entry problems but more recurring problems once Danish multinationals will get going. Once the postulates are empirically validated, potential implications for strategic interventions are briefly discussed. Keywords: Knowledge transfer, culture, MNCs.

Will China Continue to Hold Together?Brødsgaard, Kjeld Erik (Frederiksberg, 2012)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The recent Bo Xilai affair has created strains in the Chinese political system and has intensified the power struggle concerning the new leadership appointments due to take place at the 18th Party Congress. The pressure on the political system is intensified by a number of social phenomena such as increased fragmentation, vested interests, corruption, social unrest, increased income and social inequalities and a de facto reform stop since 2009. Some scholars believe that we now see the end of 'resilient authoritarianism' and that China either will experience a political and social collapse or move towards a democratic system. However, developments since 1989 show the regime's amazing ability to revitalize its organizational capabilities and regain its Mandate of Heaven. It may be too early to declare the Party over.

Reconceptualising the Chinese Diaspora in Southeast AsiaJacobsen, Michael (København, 2007)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper argues that the fluidity that permeates the contemporary international community is driven by especially political and economic globalisation, which has a huge impact of the relationship between the nation and the state. As the individual nation state is increasingly depending on the international community for its economic survival this dependency on the global has as a consequence that it rolls back aspects of national sovereignty thus opening up the national hinterland for further international influences. These developments initiate a process of disaggregating state and nation, meaning that a gradual disarticulation of the relationship between state and nation produces new societal spaces, which are contested by non-statist interest groups and transnational more or less deterritorialised ethnic affiliated groups and networks. The argument forwarded in this article is that the ethnic Chinese utilises these newly created spaces for setting up diasporic like networks thus providing substance for transnational ethnoscapes or nations without states.

The Case of Chinese Indonesian EntrepreneursKoning, Juliette (København, 2006)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Two things characterize the ethnic Chinese overseas: their subjection to discrimination and their over-representation (relative to the local people in the place of destination) in self-employment and entrepreneurship (Chan Kwok-bun 2004:xiii). Much has been written on ethnic Chinese firms in Southeast Asia. A major part of the scholarly attention has gone into trying to understand and explain business success. As such the debate has for a long time, in a rather dichotomizing way, been divided into capitalist (profit maximisation) and cultural (personal relationship) explanations as the main drivers for this so-called success. Since the late 1990s the debate has entered a new phase, sometimes referred to as the "revisionist mood‿ enhancing the deconstruction and de-mystification of ethic Chinese businesses. Interestingly enough the debate has been rather quiet on issues of identity and ethnic self-representation. This is where this paper tries to fill a gap. By focusing on the role and meaning of ethnicity and religion (as identity markers) in enterprise development, leadership and management styles, and decision-making and networking I hope to contribute to a better understanding of the significance of "being Chinese overseas‿ and "New-Born Christian‿ in entrepreneurial identity. Empirical case material on several new-born Christian ethnic Chinese entrepreneurs of small and medium sized companies in Indonesia shall be used to explore this delicate relationship. The overtly non-Christian socio-political domination and the contested citizenship position of ethnic Chinese in parts of the region shall be features of the necessary contextual discussion.

Experiences from SingaporeOoi, Can-Seng (København, 2005)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper draws inspiration from Edward Said's orientalism, and examines how the three National Museums of Singapore – the Singapore History Museum, the Singapore Art Museum and the Asian Civilizations Museums – are orientalized. The process is mediated through the museums' close links to tourism promotion in the city-state. The tourism authorities in Singapore have found that the city destination has become too modern and western for many tourists, and the destination has embarked on a campaign to make Singapore more oriental. The creation of the museums is one strategy to orientalize Singapore; these museums assert different layers of Singapore's oriental identities. Each museum appropriates the tourist orientalist imagination in different ways. This paper argues that the orientalist imagination can be understood as a set of knowledge resources for the construction of local identities to enhance a destination's uniqueness and attractiveness. Besides reviewing Said's orientalism, this paper visits criticisms of the theory, within the context of the orientalization process of museums in Singapore.

Abstract: This paper uses the structuralist framework of agriculture-industry synergy in an economy to discuss the performance of the agricultural and industrial sectors in India. The industry – agriculture relationship is argued to be integral to economic development as the agriculture sector supplies raw materials, surplus labour to the industrial sector and acts as a source of demand for industrial goods. However, in India this relationship has been complex. This paper looks at the supply side constraints in the agricultural sector and the demand side constraints in the industrial sector to assess the poor development and growth in the two sectors. It concludes that India has not followed the structuralist pattern of sectoral development and poor agricultural growth has not been conducive for demand led industrialization, adversely affecting factor markets for both labour and land.

Abstract: The Port of Rotterdam is a typical European organisation that undertakes several activities towards China annually and has a clear understanding of what it has to offer to its Chinese counterparts, but does not always succeed in achieving rapport with those counterparts. This paper studies the identity constructs of the Port of Rotterdam in a selected number of Chinese contexts (central ministries, main ports, etc.). The methodology is narrative analysis using corpora of texts compiled for each context. The core theoretical principle1 is that identity is not a property, but a process of ongoing interaction. The identity of A can only be established in a particular context, by observing the interaction between A and parties in that context. A will thus obtain multiple identities in multiple contexts. The results can be used by the Port of Rotterdam to improve the effectiveness of its delegations to China. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7406 Files in this item: 1

Ten general principlesLi, Xin; Brødsgaard, Kjeld Erik; Jacobsen, Michael (, 2009)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: We argue, due to the conspicuous failure of Washington Consensus-guided reforms in most part of the developing world in 1990s and the outbreak of the current global financial crisis, Washington Consensus, as a general term of the neoliberal free market economic thinking, has been withering. In the meantime, Chinese economic model has gain wide recognition and praise worldwide. Joshua C. Ramo coined the term of Beijing Consensus as an alternative approach to economic development for developing nations. There has been hot debate on the notion of Beijing Consensus. We argue even though there are some problems in Ramo's original definition of Beijing Consensus, we should not reject this notion altogether. Instead, we should try to come up with better conceptualizations of this term. In this paper, we sum up ten general principles of the Chinese development model as our new definition of the Beijing Consensus. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7830 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: China's diplomacy is among the many accomplishments of China during the period of reform and opening up. The People's Republic of China is emerging fully on to the world's stage, and in a largely positive fashion. It now has both interests and a presence in parts of the world completely new to China—such as Latin America and the Middle East. Beijing has managed its relations well with the major world powers—United States, Russia, and the European Union. It has transformed its regional diplomacy in Asia, reasserted a role in Africa, and has become more active in multilateral organizations. Thirty years ago, at the outset of the "reform and opening" era, China acted hesitantly on the world stage, limiting itself largely to its united front tactics against Soviet "social imperialism." Its diplomats were not very sophisticated and rarely left their embassies abroad. In the United Nations, China's preferred medium of voting was to abstain (especially on sensitive issues). In short, China's diplomacy was hesitant and not confident, inward-looking not outward looking, parochial and not sophisticated, reactive not proactive, and composed more of words than deeds. Today, these latter characterizations better describe China's diplomacy. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8013 Files in this item: 1

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in ChinaHolst Jensen, Mads (København, 2006)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Taking into account a broad range of stakeholders who may affect or be affected by corporate action, the perspective of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) carries the promise of a win-win situation for all. CSR in China is highly topical, as the country is integrating into the supply chains of the major global players, but the ideals of CSR are a far cry from the realities of production in "the workshop of the world". In this paper I will discuss key issues relating to the process of adapting CSR into the Chinese context. I will focus on the position of the PRC political leadership. I argue that the leadership seems to pursue an agenda of submerging CSR under the control of the Party-State and conceptualizing CSR by reference to a blend of an eclectic interpretation of Western European welfare models and CSR conceptions with an eclectic interpretation of Chinese tradition and political culture. As a result, CSR in China lacks the element of multi-stakeholder dialogue, which is commonly recognized as the core element of CSR in Western countries.

The role of equity in the transition from egalitarianism to capitalismRutten, Koen (Frederiksberg, 2010)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The 'Scientific Development Concept', promulgated by Hu Jintao in 2007 articulated the increased eminence of social development in official ideology. The shift from political and economic objectives towards social factors can be explained by growing concerns over the current negative externalities of China's economic growth, the long and midterm sustainability of its economic development model and the implications thereof for social stability and political legitimacy. An immediate priority has been to formulate and implement a response to mitigate the disruptive effects of the transition to a market economy. Such a response must cover a wide array of social issues, ranging from provision of health, education and infrastructure, pension to unemployment insurance and poverty alleviation. The welfare issue is characterized by high degrees of complexity and interdependency between endogenous factors and exogenous political and economic variables. Improvements are further confounded by the high decentralization of administration, regional disparities and the sheer size of operations. Although progress has been made on most fronts, it remains to be seen whether recent initiatives will prove sufficient to meet China's social challenges. In this paper, I provide a summary of the academic literature on post-reform development of the welfare system. I will give an overview of its most salient problems, initiatives and their preliminary outcomes. Finally, I will present some concluding remarks and provide suggestions for future research.

Yenching University, St. John's University and Yale in ChinaGjedssø Bertelsen, Rasmus; Thybo Møller, Steffen (Frederiksberg, 2010)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper analyses the historical 'direct' soft power of American missionary universities in China and their 'reverse' soft power towards American society until their nationalization in the early 1950s. The paper also addresses the soft power of the legacies of these historical universities. This analysis is based on the cases of St. John's University, Yale-in-China and Yenching University. American missionary universities were founded with the clear 'direct' soft power purpose of attracting the Chinese 'other' to Christianity. However, soft power resources often have unintended behavioral consequences and a particularly interesting one is 'reverse' soft power: Where the intended object society of soft power influences the originator society of soft power, for example, through education and advocacy. American missionary universities exercised substantial soft power both toward the Chinese host society and toward the American society. The institutions in China also left institutional legacies at American—and Canadian—universities which continue to hold soft power in the relationship between American and Chinese society. The extent and limitation of this bidirectional soft power can be discerned from what attracted different actors to these universities and what those and other actors rejected about these universities; this is based on a detailed analysis of the relations between the universities and different public and private actors in the host society and the society of origin. These relations were characterized by the role of the universities as bridges between host society and society of origin carrying much information between societies, raising awareness and interest about the other society, moving elite-level human resources back and forth and raising large financial resources in the USA for education and research in China.

Abstract: Over the past decade, the Government of Malaysia has become increasing aware of the significant contribution of small medium enterprises (SMEs) to the national economy. A number of Government programmes and incentives were offered to the SMEs in the past years but with limited impact. This lecture touches on the nature and contribution of the Malaysian SMEs in the first five years of the 21st century. An attempt was made to identify the success factors and weaknesses of SMEs from official reports of Government agencies, and findings of research studies on the subject. Recognising the challenges posed by globalisation and trade liberalisation on the Malaysian SMEs, the Government revamped its policies, programmes, incentives, and approaches which are currently implemented in the Ninth Malaysian Plan and the Third Industrial Master Plan. The objective is to enhance the SMEs' capacity and capabilities through continuous product development, knowledge and technology acquisition to empower them to compete with other global players offering high quality products and services at competitive prices.

The Place Branding of Denmark and SingaporeOoi, Can-Seng (København, 2006)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Place branding has become popular. Places brand themselves to attract tourists, talented foreign workers, investments and businesses. The brand accentuates the positive characteristics of the place; it frames the society and sells its cultures. In the context of tourism, this paper examines the branding strategies of two very different countries – Denmark and Singapore. In Singapore, the convergence between the brand message and the place reality is frequently engineered by creating new brand-related products. In Denmark, the brand tries to communicate an existing local reality; it wants to present a prevailing reality. To the Danes, the brand is descriptive and should portray the country in a positive and accurate manner. To the Singaporeans, the brand is normative and a vision of what Singaporean society ought to become. These countries share common goals when branding themselves but their branding strategies are different, why? This paper situates their strategic differences in the local social, cultural and political context. Although country branding is externally directed, domestic politics and mechanisms of local control affect how the country can brand itself.

Brandy performs to nearly empty 90,000-person arena
Singer walks off stage after two songs
R&B singer Brandy reportedly played to to a nearly empty arena in South Africa this week.
A surprise guest at the Nelson Mandela Sports and Cultural Day concert, the Grammy-winner came on stage at the First National Bank (FNB) Stadium in Johannesburg and discovered only about 40 people left in the 90,000-person arena, according to the Guardian.
Earlier in the day, there had been thousands of people in the stadium celebrating the festivities, which included soccer and rugby games as well as live music.
Reports suggest Brandy's performance was not properly advertised. South African singer Kabomo, who was at the stadium, described the incident in a series of posts on his Twitter page in which he wrote, "I have no words for what I just witnessed. Brandy performed to an empty stadium. No one knew Brandy was around. There are more people there on a random Tuesday...Depressing."

From what I've read, it sounds like an Intel mobile gpu isn't bad.
I was just curious how Nvidia Optimus w/ Bumblebee or equivalent would compare? Maybe it's best to have Nvidia discrete w/ Intel integrated and have the Nvidia one disabled unless you need it? I mean, if power saving is the priority, you'd do that? Bumblebee primarily has this function? I was wondering what the update is regarding how well it works and what the general satisfaction level might be.
There actually seems to be quite a few Optimus laptops that are price competitive with the cheaper Intel mobile gpu laptops (of comparable hardware).
Not even considering an ATI mobile gpu laptop at all.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. - - Two come from behind, late game victories helped the Wilmington University baseball team even its record for its annual trip to Florida, defeating Molloy College, 7-3 and 4-3, on the final day of action on Sunday at the Nova Southeastern Complex to go 4-4 on the week.
The Wildcats (7-4 overall) scored two runs in the sixth inning to tie the score in game one and scored four runs in the seventh to win it before scoring two runs in the bottom of the sixth in game two to take the lead.
Trailing 3-1 heading into the sixth inning, the bats woke up for the Wildcats as they rallied to steal the first game of the doubleheader. The sixth inning rally all started from scratch with two outs and the bases empty. Brandon Payne broke through by working a two-out walk to keep the inning alive. Adam Soley crushed an RBI double to cut it to a 3-2 deficit with four outs remaining. Kyle Hitchens tied the game during the next at-bat, making it back-to-back RBI doubles, scoring pinch-runner Joe Marciano from second.
Nick Marics worked out of a two-out, two men on jam in the bottom of the sixth to keep the game tied, allowing the Wildcats to break out with four runs in the seventh.
Jonathan Rodriguez started the seventh with a double off Lions' starter Chuck Fontana. Joe Harbach put the go-ahead run on third with a sacrifice bunt, but Rodriguez would have scored from second anyway as Mike Godwin doubled with what would prove to be the game-winning RBI. Jordan Oncay walked to put runners on first and second before Bryan Miller hit another double, scoring Godwin and moving Oncay to third. Brandon Payne came through with an RBI groundout and pinch runner Jordan Johnson scored on a passed ball to cap the scoring with the innings' fourth run.
Tim Racek came on to pitch the bottom of the seventh and quickly shut the door in game one, throwing a perfect inning with a pop up and two fly outs.
Ryan Lally started on the mound for the Wildcats, giving up three runs (two earned) on five hits in five innings. He struck out five Lion batters in the no decision. Marics picked up the victory with his scoreless sixth inning.
Harbach, Godwin and Miller each hit a double and finished with two hits to lead the Wildcats. Wilmington collected six doubles in the victory.
Game two of the doubleheader started in the same fashion for the Wildcats, as they went into the second inning trailing 3-1. Wilmington needed to score a run in the fourth and two more in the sixth to pull the days' sweep over Molloy.
Freshman Matt Lopes was hit by a pitch and moved to second on a wild pitch to set up the fourth inning run. Soley brought the Wildcats to within one as he ripped another double to score Lopes from second.
Starter Justin DeLong set the Lions down in the top of the fifth and sixth innings to bring the bats back up to the plate in the bottom of the sixth needing one run to tie the score. Soley started the rally with yet another double, reaching second with one out. Now with two outs, Miller reached on an error by the third baseman, scoring pinch runner Marciano to knot the game at 3-3.
The Wildcats took the lead on another Molloy mistake, as Jordan Johnson reached on an error by the pitcher, racing to third on the play and forcing pinch runner Brendan Fallers to score with the go-ahead run.
Closer Jordan Oncay came on for the top of the seventh inning, looking to leave Florida on a high note. Oncay put a man on with a hit by pitch, but induced a game-ending around the horn double play in the next at-bat to pick up the save.
Johnson, Harbach and Soley added two hits each to lead the offense for the Wildcats. DeLong threw six innings and gave up three runs on seven hits. He picked up three strikeouts before handing the ball over to Oncay who tallied his second save of the season.
Wilmington returns to Delaware on Monday and will be back on the diamond on Wednesday this week when they square off against Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference foe Post in a nonconference game at Wilson Field. First pitch is scheduled for 3 p.m.

Adam LaRoche is congratulated by Ryan Zimmerman after his three-run homer.
Game in a nutshell: After a marathon game last night, the Nationals hoped to get both a productive start out of Edwin Jackson and some early run support to make manager Davey Johnson's job a little easier in the later innings. They got both. Slumping Adam LaRoche started things off with a three-run homer in the bottom of the first. Michael Morse added two more opposite-field hits, the second of them driving in his first run of the season. And Jackson did his part, overcoming his own throwing error to churn out seven quality innings. And unlike last night, the back end of the Nationals' bullpen took care of business and closed this one out without the need for any antacid. Tyler Clippard's fifth save since taking over pseudo-closer duties ensured the Nats' second straight win over the Mets and extended their lead in the NL East to two games.
Hitting highlight: Throughout his three-week slump (during which he went 6-for-55 and saw his batting average drop nearly 70 points) LaRoche insisted he wouldn't panic. He'd been through much longerRead more »

Nice win, nice series win, which we needed. Sweeping would be so sweet. Ejax pitched well, even though he showed his rough edges with the walks and the poor throw over to first. However, even his bad pitches are usually down or away, so doesn't give up many hard hit balls on those. (In contrast, it seems to me that quite a few of Zimnn's bad ones are grooved.) At least he didn't Lowe his composure, which I like about him. Very happy to see Morse get his timing and swing back so quickly. He changes the pithches that other batters will see. So much for LaRoche needing rest. OK, maybe not – he probably could still use a break. Maybe he gets a day off tomorrow?

Looks like all of those who were worried about 3 catchers need no longer worry. Maldonado appears headed for the DL and after 2 home runs plus a double it appears that Tyler Moore has been recalled from Syracuse to replace him. Should be on the plane tonight in the clubhouse tomorrow. I sure hope Davey finds ways to use this player this time around. Maybe Adam LaRoche heard his footsteps today?

Back from the game. Such a great night for baseball. I've liked E-Jax since his gem the first weekend of the season. He's calm and composed, doesn't get flustered. Sure the throwing errors on his pickoff attemptios are annoying, but I'm starting to really have confidence when he's out there. Jonny H on the postgame said he's pitched at least 6 innings 7 out of his last 8 starts. That's just excellent, and just what our bullpen needed tonight.Nice to see ALR break out of his slump. That first inning homer was so sweet. But almost as satisfying was his SF. Just so nice to see some decent situational hitting out of the middle of the lineup. It's got to help him to have Morse back in the lineup to protect him. And Morse really crushed that RBI single. Almost took Davis's hand off. Clip settled down after McCatty's visit, thank goodness. I was cringing at the leadoff walk, and two balls right after that. Whatever the Cat said worked! Tomorrow is just gravy. I wonder who will get the day off against the knuckleballer. Speaking of R.A. Dickey, I know we're not supposed to speak well of the opposition, but he comes off as a really decent and interesting guy in this interview about his new book on Fresh Air. Definitely worth a listen.

Personally, I don't mind if anyone speaks well of the opposition as long as they're not putting the Nats down in the same breath.
- SonnyG10 - Jun 7, 2012 at 3:23 AM
I'd like to see Moore give LaRoache an occasional break.
- peric - Jun 7, 2012 at 3:28 AM
Didn't you say over the weekend the Nats needed to carry 3 catchers and anyone who didn't know why didn't know baseball.Not if one of them is hurt **AGAIN** Gonat. Doh! Gee and who do you replace Maldonado with Gonat? Any ideas genius boy? Huh? No you don't because if you had read what I said ***carefully*** you would have seenthat I said they need **3** until they could get Sandy Leon back. WeLL Lo and behold last night he and Bryce did some catching together and now Sandy Leon is off to XST to start his rehabilitation. Its a bit premature since he hasn't gotten far enough in the evaluation process but if Maldonado can't play I guess you're stuck. Plus Nieto went on the DL as well! You can get they are going to get those catchers they drafted signed and started early in Viera and Auburn. They are needed!
- Scott from Burke - Jun 7, 2012 at 3:32 AM
dont mess with peric…this board is his LIFE!
- Section 222 - Jun 7, 2012 at 3:37 AM
So peric, just where would you put Moore? LF? Then who leads off. Back to the unsuccessful Desmond? Or Espi? Would you really take Lombo out in favor of Moore against RH pitching? Or would you replace ALR at 1B? I wouldn't mind giving him a day off every now and then, but you're kidding yourself if you think that Moore's going to get more than one start a week at first. Sorry, Moore is a bench bat again, another rightie to have available for three series we have coming up in AL parks. Maybe he gets a few chances to DH. Hopefully, he's a better PH option than Maldonado. And no, we're not going to carry three catchers. What's the point of that if they aren't good PH options? Frankly, I'd rather see Brown. Moore looked overmatched in his limited exposure last time around. I don't think he's ready for prime time yet.
- Steady Eddie - Jun 7, 2012 at 4:15 AM
222– agree re the likely use of Moore. I suspect the answer is fairly simple: DHing and maybe a couple of days giving LaRoche a blow is his reward for patiently sitting on the pine in the Show when he could have been raking and getting consistent ABs in AAA. If Davey had wanted a position starter he would have taken Brown, as Moore is still without a position on the big team, for all the reasons you gave.And what is it, only three days since Mark pointed out "no beat from heart of lineup" after the Sunday loss to the Braves? Getting hot just at the right time, heading into the AL East. Maybe one or two of 'em can set the table by teeing off on Dickey's knucklers tomorrow? I expect Lombo will move to second as Espinosa has talked about how much he hates hitting against Dickey, and hopefully he'll put the Shark in LF instead of putting Ankiel back in center. I think Davey's seen enough of him after that bases loaded K yesterday that forced Davey to empty the pen to get the win.

222, I actually just finished DIckey's book this morning on the bus. It's not that extraordinary but not a bad read either.
- rabbit34 - Jun 7, 2012 at 10:09 AM
Looks like Peric doesn't take criticism as well as some. It's only baseball, buddy, not everyone looks at things the same. All the bases have to be covered. Your posts, though, are enjoyable to read. Keep up the good work.
- NatsJack in Florida - Jun 7, 2012 at 10:29 AM
Peric doesn't take any criticism, especially when it's warranted.
- ehay2k - Jun 7, 2012 at 12:02 PM
I believe Moore was brought in to play LF for the AL series so Morse can DH and rest his lat. After that, I bet Moore will be a bench bat or head back to Syracuse.
- JaneB - Jun 7, 2012 at 2:22 PM
Thanks for the Fresh Air link, 222. Ity's enjoyable. Loved the Post's dissection of the trajectory of the knuckleball today, too.

I had a previous model of this Canon that I lost, so was looking for a replacement. This one is updated, with higher pixels,etc. We love this camera for 2 specific things: thru-the-lens view finder (for shooting outside in sunny conditions) and it takes AA batteries, so we don't have to worry about recharging the batteries. You can buy AA batteries in every country we've been in, so don't worry about carrying a charger.
Our old camera finally died, so we had to buy a new one and boy, did we buy the right one! The Canon PowerShot A1300 16MP Silver Digital Camera is an easy to use point-and-click camera. We upgraded the memory card - thankfully, as we took literally hundred of pictures on our recent vacation at the VA/MD Eastern Shore. Thecamera case could be a little bigger to hold extra batteries, but it does fit the camera itself just fine. For the price, you won't find a better deal or product than the Canon PowerShot Camera.
this was a gift - the recipient loved it. It is perfect for her - she is a beginner (she has been a beginner for over 10 years!) and found the camera very easy to use.
My only concern about this camera is that you can't charge it up, Batteries, batteries and more batteries. I wish you could buy a charging station for it. My 84 year old mother is having a ball with it, taking pictures of everything and we post on facebook for the family in other parts of the country seeing what she is up to. Good investment for her.
This camera takes very good shots. It is small and will fit easily in pocket or purse. It is certainly worth the price and will be a good choice for a camera with email in mind.
This is the camera I've wanted small, light weight, VEIW FINDER!!!! The best.
I love this camera. My husband and I bought it because we were going to have a baby soon and wanted to have a new camera to capture all those special moments. The picture quality is very good. It is easy to use and navigate. My only complaint about this camera is the flash takes a couple seconds to "recharge" which makes it tough to take one picture after another. There is a need for a slight delay when taking multiple pictures because of the flash needing to recharge. Otherwise has been a great camera.
Not the best camera I've ever purchased. Trouble with the focus on closeup shots. Not good at all with the detail on these close ups.

Sledz is deadz.
Long live Woolly's Adventure Summit and the Kids' Carousel.
Mammoth Mountain snapped up the enterprise from a private owner during the off-season. While the transaction still is in escrow, the ski area is moving ahead with its plans.
The on-again, off-again tubing hill, situated on the right just off Route 203 on the way to Mammoth Mountain, now will be a part of the ski area's continuing moves toward family-oriented snowplay, according to Mammoth spokesperson Joani Lynch.
It is scheduled for a mid-December opening, and this week piles of dirt and debris were evidence that something big was going on.
Oddly the "Sledz" sign was still up along the highway this week, faded and in disrepair.
Mike Colbert, Lynch said, will lead the enterprise. Colbert oversees Mammoth Snowmobile Adventures and is the director of the Mammoth Motocross.
It will feature four tubing hills, a lift and a new innovation: a kind of carousel for the wee tots.
Lynch said tubes would be fastened to a slowly rotating contraption that will take the kids in a circle.
Pricing and hours had not been set as of mid-week, Lynch said.
The move is likely to help solve one of Mammoth's great conundrums, namely, how is it that a ski town has nowhere to get a great sledding or tubing experience?
Kids currently use a hill situated on Minaret Road near its intersection with Lake Mary Road, but it is ungroomed and short. Others use a hill off the Mammoth Scenic Loop.
Both of them have advantages, however, that Woolly's will not have:
They're free.

Parents object to vaccine exemption form
MONTPELIER — Vermont Health Department officials have rewritten rules designed to implement a new law on childhood immunizations, but some parents aren't satisfied with how those changes are being made.
An earlier draft of the rules said when parents want to exempt their child from vaccinations they need to sign a form implying they agree with the Health Department's assessment of the vaccines' risks and benefits. Parents who have expressed skepticism about vaccines say that's compelled speech, and that it violates the First Amendment.
Health Department officials tell lawmakers the rules had been rewritten to address those concerns.
But Jennifer Stella of the Vermont Coalition for Vaccine Choice says school nurses haven't been told about the rewrite.
Deputy Health Commissioner Tracy Dolan says that should be happening soon.MORE IN This Just InThe Associated Press Full StoryLocal contractors are looking forward to a busy construction season a sign of an improving...

Comments about Champion Sports Equipment Bag:
Very good equipment bag. The only thing I would change is the compartment for bats. It's not enclosed and bats have a tendency to slip out of place. Otherwise, this bag is loaded with differents areas to store your stuff. It's a great way to haul a lot of gear and still stay organized.

If your child is diagnosed with total anomalous pulmonary venous return, we're here to ease your concerns, answer your questions, and give your child the best possible chance for a healthy future.

Louisville Slugger MLB Prime Maple Baseball Bat Evan Longoria VMI13
The new Evan Longoria Louisville Slugger MLB Prime Maple Wood Baseball Bat has a hard hitting surface! Maple is a very dense timber with a greater surface hardness than ash. Some players believe this hardness gives them better performance. Maple is a closed-grain timber – this makes it less prone to flake like ash and allows for more durability. Maple is generally considered as more popular right now. It has become prominent over the last decade, driven by MLB players using maple.

My First
Great Go-to Shows
What I like most, is the colour. Since I usually wear blues and blacks its nice to have a pop of colour from my shoes. Love them with jeans in fall, winter and spring (I'm in Victoria don't forget ;) )
Singing in my Luxons!
Note: I wear anything from a 9.5 to an 11 in a Vog, depending on the style -- and I went with a 10.5 in these (as that's the size I have in the Ease). I have lots of room in the toe, so I probably could have gone with a size 10; however, the straps are such that it doesn't matter. They hold my foot right where it should be. And my feet have room to swell a little, which matters after standing for a couple of hours.
