Holy Crap!! I just tried this in ArchLinux with all the latest packages and it too is affected by this.
Phoronix: An Easy But Serious Screensaver Security Problem In X.Org
I've been alerted this afternoon that there's an outstanding security vulnerability within the current X.Org Server that's receiving little attention. This active vulnerability could allow anyone with physical access to your system to easily bypass the desktop's screen lock regardless of your desktop environment...
Holy Crap!! I just tried this in ArchLinux with all the latest packages and it too is affected by this.
Hang on, so unless I'm missing something all you have to do is press CTRL+ALT+Keypad-Multiply? I assume Keypad-Multiply is the button directly above the number 9 on my keypad? well I just tried those three button combinations and it did nothing, I'm running Linux Mint Debian Edition.
definitely a show-stopper
Not cool for multi-user systems!
RHEL 6.x is running X.Org Server 1.10.4, so fortunately it isn't vulnerable. RHEL is one of the most likely Linux desktop OSes to be deployed in a public area such as a computer lab at a university, where you really wouldn't want someone to be able to do this.
That said, I'm sure there is some public computer somewhere in the world where physical access of untrusted users is common/accepted, running X.Org 1.11 or later. Now people know to check before they trust the "lock screen" feature. Good find, Michael (even though you didn't originally find the issue, good job reporting it anyway).
List of affected distros :
Ubuntu 12.04 here which is not affected (running xorg 1.10.4)
Pathetic. How can that slip by a whole bunch of developers who supposedly know what they're doing?
Get back on the ship, dammit!
This bug is certainly not so good for marketing, its not that you get a secure system when you just fix that. You just avoid the reboot - on reboot you can get to root rights with Linux using an unlocked bootloader (which is the default) and similar to any Mac system. For Win you usually need at least a cd/usb key to boot from. A screen lock only helds back the most harmless attackers

Satin Smooth Calendula Gold Hard Wax
JNot That Goodit takes a looooong time to melt, not easy to apply, and it does contrary to most of the reviews hurt to pull it off, and on top of that it missed too many of the hairs! The worst part--- could not get all the sticky residue off----for days, left my skin irritated and itchy! Yuck, yuck! Would never recommend to anyone.posted Mar 30, 2010Link to this post
KellyArlington, VAHard WaxOK, my plan was to invest in hard wax (less painful) and a very good melting pot (The Original Melting Pot - worth it) and maintain my bikini myself this year. Keep in mind, I had been shaving every other day for the past few years and we all know what that does. Needless to say, I could barely get the first strip of wax off without wanting to cry. I decided I couldn't give myself that kind of pain so immediately scheduled a Brazilian at the Bliss Spa in DC. I still had a lot of pain even though they use hard wax also but not near as much as it would have been with a sugar based wax. This hard wax doesn't pull at the skin. I did do a touch up a few weeks later using this wax and it worked very well. No complaints. I think it just takes a little more practice on my part with technique. The top will have a hard layer while melting but you can carefully push it down into the melted area and it will finish melting just fine. Don't turn the heat up to melt the top - just be very careful when pushing it down into the remaining wax. You don't want it too hot as it will be soupier. Medium heat on the melting pot worked for me.posted Feb 9, 2010Link to this post
J N AWichester, VAVery Easy To UseNever used hard wax before and this was very easy to use and I had great results. I think it's more time consuming than sugar waxing, but there was less pain and less mess. I highly recomend giving it a try. My only complaints would be a)the smell of this is kind of like hot plastic geting ready to melt and b)it's really hard to get any stray bits off so unless your good at keeping the spread even you'll have a couple stray bits to scrape off with your nails. None of the wax removers I had woudl even soften it. Overall this stuff is an A, if it smelled better I would go A+. good Luckposted Sep 28, 2009Link to this post
KatherineHonolulu, HIGreat Bikini WaxI bought this wax after reading all the reviews and doing some research to ensure I was set to do my own bikini waxes. After over five years of spending over $50 a pop on salon visits, I figured I would give it a try. First off, doing your own bikini waxing is not for the faint of heart. Secondly, I finally figured out the easiest way to do it was to put enough wax on to cover the hair completely in large long rectangular sections rather than small sections. When you do small sections you are just increasing your own discomfort, and it is easier to apply and pull of the wax if it is in larger sections. Definitely purchase some wax remover for any left over residue. I did not but am buying some as soon as possible. Baby oil can help loosen up the wax as well. Overall, a really great product and easy to use!posted Sep 2, 2009Link to this post
AmandaVancouver, CanadaFantasic Hard Wax!I purchased the Satin Smooth waxing kit about six months ago, and also picked up the Calendula hard wax and the Cherry hard wax. Both are great, but of the two hard waxes, the Calendula has been my stand-alone favourite!!! I have extremely sensitive skin, and it does my brazilian like a charm. I dust the area to be epilated with some baby powder to ensure that the wax is gripping the HAIRS and not my SKIN. When I remember to do this, it doesnt even hurt. Im one of those people that likes to examine the strips that I pull, to see how much hair I sequestered. The white creamy wax makes it easy to investigate! This wax ALWAYS grabs the roots and doesnt break the hairs off mid-shaft (in which you might as well have just shaved). I love, love, LOVE this product.posted Apr 5, 2009Link to this post
BrookLas Vegas NVI Am Really Satisfied With This!I use this product for my legs and my bikini! It is fabulous and it is benefical since I dont have to use wax strips with this wax I just apply the wax let it cool just enough so that it isnt liquid and it easily removes the hair. I wouldnt recommend this wax for the face because it is hard to work with, if your looking for something to use on your face you should use a honey wax. I love this wax!posted Feb 24, 2009Link to this post
SteveNew York, NYNever Going Back To Soft WaxThis stuff is great. It does take longer to heat up than the soft stuff, and once you apply it you have to wait longer for it to harden than you have to wait with soft wax, so in the end your waxing experience takes longer. But, good things take time. This wax hurts a lot less than soft wax and it is much better at ripping the hair out at the root instead of breaking it off at the skin surface.posted Jan 31, 2009Link to this post
JlWorks Great!!!This was my first time using any sort of home wax other than those small packs that you can get in drugstores. I bought the kit but ordered this wax for bikini area since I read you need hard wax for coarser hair. Since it was my first time using this kind of wax, I wanted to write a review to help those who are in the same boat as they buy this for the first time.I tried on my legs first to get a feel for it. Since you arent supposed to use a strip to take it off, it was tricky to get a hold of the wax to grab and pull and on my legs, hair came off very easy without even having to pull rapidly. I think the wax is very good and even looks more liquid and silky than I remember seeing in salons. As for bikini area, since Id been shaving for so long, the hair was a lot thicker and I am hoping thats why it hurt more than expected this time around. Like before, its very difficult to get the right amount of wax to use so you can grab at the ends before it hardens, which it seems to do rather quickly, but I think thin layer is all you really need since the wax is such great quality. Hope it helps.posted Dec 11, 2008Link to this post
JessicaNewbury, NhGood Wax, But Be CarefulThis wax is awesome, especially for removing really hard-to-remove hair. The only problem is that if you dont get the fabric strip pressed into the wax quickly enough, the wax will dry on its own and is a PAIN to get off, because it will just break off in smaller pieces.posted Apr 16, 2008Link to this post
MeganLeesburg,FLDoes What It Is Supposed To DoDef. does what it is supposed to do. But very painful in the bikini area but that could be because it was my first waxing in that area, and as we all know skin needs time to toughen up to waxing. I havent used on eyebrows yet, because its very messy and very hard to control when trying to shape. The next step is using it on my legs.posted Mar 25, 2008Link to this post

This mattress is extremely comfortable and feels like a hotel mattress. It is so difficult for me to get up in the morning because I do not want to get out of the bed. It is very cozy. The price was well worth it.
We ordered this bed because my husband and I only had a full size. We now have a bed that is comfortable, with lots of room for a very good price. It was also delivered in about two and a half weeks and the movers brought it in and set it up for us. Also it has been very durable, since we have two big dogs that like to jump onto the bed. I would definetly recomend this for someone who wanted a nice Cal King, but didn't want to spend alot on it.
The Facts: We have been using this mattress since early December 2012. We are both Primarily Side sleepers. While we sleep OK, The bed is not what I was hoping for. In 2 months time, both my husband and I have visible crater where we sleep. This crater remains visible even at night when nobody has been in the bed all day and the bed is made, you can actually see the dents. The weird thing is that my husband who is 6ft 3 and weighs 275 lbs has less of an indentation then me. I am 5ft7in and weigh 150lbs. That makes no sense. The other day we switched sides and we were both EXTREMELY uncomfortable. When I woke up my hip was completely numb. That has never happened:( It was WEIRD!!! I am not happy with the bed, but unfortunately from everything I read, we are pretty much out of luck and might as well live with it for a while. It would end up costing too much to return it. I do understand that some beds are designed to cradle you, but there was no mention of that and this is beyond a cradle. LOL it's more like a hammock. We are both really bummed about this purchase. Not in Overstock, but in the quality of construction of the product itself.

At Beyond the Office Door, we strive to stay up-to-date with the latest office equipment technology, including flexible computer workstations such as the wall mount system. Computer wall mount systems are quickly becoming popular in a variety of work environments due to the many benefits they offer both employees and guests. They let users have small, upright computer workstations, including room for a keyboard, which they can access while standing.
Standing desks are typically utilized for ergonomic purposes, but they also allow busy offices to install discreet workstations in high-traffic areas, such as hallways of health clinics, where use is limited to a few minutes of one's time. If an employee needs to stand while working longer hours, this desk has adjustable features that allow maximum comfort throughout the day.

Yes their is a problem here with this issue of unemployment. I was taken off unemployment and didn't get a chance to receive EB I would like to know are black American being black ball because we have a black man in office. I have been out of work for almost two years now and haven't gotten a job yet and I have a college degree. what is going on here. I live in NY all my life I have never same anything like this before. why American black can't get a job.
Get off the backside of your butt and do SOMETHING for this country. Rip the environmentalists a new body cavity and get our own oil in our system so we can save the 6.1 TRILLION dollars the arabs are going to reap from this latest increase in a barrel of oil. What must we do to heat our homes? Paying more than 3 bucks a gallon for heating oil is ludicrous because our government can't stand up for us. Give more money to the world, The cost of making ethanol is costing more than it's worth in burning in a car. All that's accomplishing is to drive up the cost of food. Nice going, a real snooker job on congress for this fiasco. Go environmentalists and Al Gore, wreck this country as fast as you can.
Dear Senator Schumer,
I have just read the article in the link above that describes how our country is representing me. My disgust and outrage with this disregard for human rights makes me angered to have to own up to this representation by my government.In the most humble way possible, as a citizen of the United States, I beg of you to stop the actions of detention without representation or charges, torture and any other non-compliance with US law on international grounds. It misrepresents the freedom that we would like the world to see us for and makes it more unsafe for the citizens of this country and others.
Thank you for your time in reading my plea. I hope we can hold our heads up proudly once again as Americans when this blood has been washed away.
Dear Sr. Schumer,
Please push for an extension on unemployment benefits. I lost my job in the real estate market and am having difficulity finding another position. I am sure there are many people in the same position. I have 3 children one hopefully on his way to college if I can afford to send him.
The stimulus package is not going to help me enough.
Thank You Senator Schumer:
I plead with you to continue to fight for an unemployment extension for ALL states. The states with the highest rates should get the most money, but there are long term unemployed in all states. Do what you must to get this passed quickly. Compromise if you must, but this extension must be timely.
Thank you from a NY constuent Senator Schumer:
Americans are getting fed-up with politics-as-usual and are beginning to investigate the causes of their concern. Your record of failure and apparent lack of understanding in the finance and labor areas suggests either 1) you are incompetent or 2) you are "playing politics" instead of attending to the tasks you were elected to perform. I suspect the latter.I strongly recommend that you wake up to the fact that the people who elected you are starting to notice your monumental failure to protect their interests. We don't need lip service – we need real change in Congress and in the political process itself.
As a democrat, I am deeply ashamed that you represent my state in congress. First you cause a bamk to fold and now you have failed to take any action in the financial crisis. I hope they have paid you off well because you will need the money when you get tossed out of office.
2. BAN USURY! force the credit card companies and mortgage lenders to lower their interest rates, freeze them at 1% above prime so the rest of us can benefit from "easy" lending practices and get out of debt!!!
The American people are continuously bilked by the giant banks who seduce us in and then enslave us with prohibitive interest rates – what way is that for a democracy to be run?
3. GIVE THE $700,000,000,000 directly to the people instead of to the banking financiers who have robbed us blind – how's that for economic stimulus? TRICKLE UP!!!
4. PROVE THAT CONGRESS AND THE ADMIN ARE NOT ON THE TAKE – MAKE IT CLEARLY ILLEGAL FOR BROKERS AND TRADERS AND BANKERS TO develop the means to sell our security and debts for a profit!!!! Wanted you to know the people of the United States does care about earmarks or pork. Pork should not have been in the stimulus bill, don't believe a single representative or senitor knows all the items that have been placed in this so called stimulus bill. It shames me, a Democrat, to know my party put all this pork in the bill and it will place high taxes on the grandchildren to try and pay off the national debt which has greatly been increased by this pork bill. To hear more stimulus bills are coming just boils my blood since $80 billion was wasted in the TARP bill, how much more is going to be wasted in this stimulus bill? I'm deeply concerned the Democrats which are spending taxpayers money is out of control. Republican spending, too, is out of control. All of you are spending us into a Depression. If you don't learn from the past what Roosevelt and Hoover did then you are apt to repeat it and it looks like you all have just done that.
I am not sure where the madness ends. Where is the change that we were promised.
The stock market has dropped over 3000 since Obama became president, but it is not just the President. Let's thank Congress and the Senate as well. They have sold their country down the river for their own benefit. That may be my opinion, but it seems to be a growing opinion of other citizens as well.
It is a real disgrace. If theses individuals were working for a private sector company they would be fired for misuse of funds.
For a Senator to get up and say that the American Citizens don't care about the extra spending just shows how out of touch Mr. Schumer is. Actually, all of Washington is out of touch and it is now time to clean house. Everyone needs to go! Everyone in Washington Republicans and Democrats need to go! While this might not be a true reality Americans will stand up and take their country back.
This country is for its citizens not the politicians!
Your numbers come straight from Faux Noise. You are blaming an elected official for a drop that started in Mar. 2007. The new President and Congress could do nothing until after Jan 20, 2009.
If you want to blame someone, blame yourself. You have been electing our leaders.
I would like to comment on this. The Democrats had control of Congress the last couple of years of the Bush administration. They blocked bills to regulate the markets. Barney Frank and Senator Schumer(is on Finance commitee) in 2002 said there was no crisis with Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac when they found accounting irregularites. They made sure there was no additional oversight. Don't believe me? Google it.

Schumer is a great man who fights for the citizens; you need to get in touch with reality… All wall street is: ten-percent of the super-rich's money that the middle-class are allowed to play with… (The super-rich get corporate loop-holes (pay a whole lot less in taxes)and the average man has a chance at a better life! Honestly "Thats it!" even the dow companies, only a small portion is owned by the public … the super-rich control Wall Street. The Republican parties sole job is: "Steal from the middle-classed to feed the super-rich!" .. Reverse Robin Hood.. Republicans destroyed the unions took the average man's money and now are working on our rights or anything that the super-rich want from us. Our congress is filled with used car salesmen that will do anything to get their payday. Schumer is a honest man amoung the wolfs! GO SCHUMER FIGHT: The terrorist, corporations and the evil men in congress!
•Comments: To: President, Vice President, Senate, and House of Representatives.
The passing of this H.R.1388 Bill as we see and understand it, returns the World, and America to a bygone era, not that of Franklin D. Roosevelt's President ice, but to 1933 Germany and what the Germany people where subjected to by their government, need there be more said.I am firmly against this Bill, and feel totally betrayed with it's being passed. On behalf of my family and I, and our well being as a free people, we want, insist that H.R.1388 be REPEALED.
Frighteningly Yours,
ms. bunny
PS: as a member of the Jewish faith, this represents the SS and Hitler youth to me, and I am EXREMLY OFFENDED and INSULTED by this bill!!!
I see nowhere in this legislation that could possibly be construed to being similar to anything that was done in Nazi Germany. If anything, it improves on a long established volunteer corps that has worked well under three administrations. It seems funny that volunteering to help Americans help Americans is equated with Nazi Germany in your eyes.
i would like to thank you dear sen.you sponsor "Reuniting Families Act" bill S.1085, and i urge you please to push it forward as much as you can, you are doing something great for thousands of families that are separated from each other, please help us to re unit with our families through this bill, which will help us really and speed up the process for family members of legal immigrants to secure visas. Specifically, it would reclassify spouses and children of legal immigrants as immediate relatives, raise the per-country family-sponsored and employment-based immigration limits from 7 percent to 10 percent of total admissions, recapture visas that went unused in previous years due to bureaucratic errors, allow widows and spouses to remain eligible for visas after the death of a sponsoring family member, and more. will solve our problems and pains.. i beg you to help us .. please..
God Bless you.I urge everyone to watch C-Span to see how senators vote.
It seems that Mr. Schumer votes only what is in interest to him, not representing us. I call him every time to ask him to vote no, but the public is not being represented.
We do care about PORK. We want you to read the bill! We do not want government healthcare. We want to be free of the government. that is our right. Please read the constitution. The government works for us, and that is why we elect them.
No more spending, no more big government, no more corruption.
We need JOBS. Please work on that. That means no Cap & Trade. It will kill what jobs there are.I was watching tv yesterday and today with your interviews on tv.
It appauls me that you are voting for public health care! It appauls me that you went on tv last week to say you will recommend 51 votes in the senate to pass your bill. We do not need another public health care. My taxes go up every year from Medicaid. We need REFORM! Pass a bill to go out of state to purchase insurance ,that would make it cheaper. Regulate the lawsuits for doctors, that will help lower costs. What you democrats are trying to push on us, is a joke! I read the HR 3200 bill, did you?
You and every senator of NY did not have any town hall meetings. Why not?
You are on too many boards, and need to get voted OUT!
You were honored at Acorn's celebration on June 17, 2009 for your honorary work.
Hmmm, what work? All the money you keep giving them? They are a fraud, and need to be shut down. How much money did they give you?

Shopping Guide For Saigon -- Shopping
No one ever shopping in Saigon can deny that the range of merchandise in Saigon is truly fantastic. Should you can't buy it here, you may not really need it!
Bargaining is considered the most common way to buy things here. Some often relish bargaining, others hate it. Yet, it is not that much complicated if you think of it as a a harmonious Yin-Yang balance. You want the item, and the seller wants your money. Bargaining is simply a search for the Yin-Yang balance between your desire and the seller's. However, should the items have price labels, there is almost no bargaining.
Normally, you will fill your suitcase when shopping in Saigon. If you get hungry during your shopping spree, stop for some finger food or relax in one of the Saigon Restaurants along the city's shopping streets.

Earlier this year at Indian Wells, we got our first glimpse of the latest update to the Feather line, the adizero Feather II. Jo-Wilfried Tsonga was rocking the yet to be released shoes out on the practice courts of the BNP Paribas Open. According to the adidas representatives we spoke to, Tsonga was in love with the adizero Feather IIs and they couldn't get him out of them.
Having seen the adizero Feather II on court and having already gotten a taste for the hype surrounding this latest adidas shoe, we couldn't wait to test a pair for ourselves. I was the lucky guy to receive one of the few early production pairs, and in the video posted above, I wrap up several months of testing them.
I was a big fan of the original adizero Feather. However, that shoe had some quirks, quirks that adidas set out to address with the adizero Feather II. With the second version, adidas has redesigned the shoe so that it keeps the light and fast feel of the original while improving fit and comfort.
From the first try-on it was obvious adidas did some serious redesigning of the Feather. The adizero Feather II offers a wider fit. Whereas the original one fit narrow, this version is a comfortable medium width. There's plenty of room for my skinny feet, but the shoes also feel roomy enough to accommodate those who need a slightly wider than medium width.
Another big comfort improvement comes in the materials used in the upper construction. The original adizero Feather had a neoprene tongue. While I liked that concept, in reality it made the shoe hard to get on as it was too grippy against my socks. The thin neoprene tongue also didn't offer the best protection from the lace system. The adizero Feather II has a more traditional tongue with adequate padding and enough mesh to improve breathability.
The rest of the upper flexes much, much better than the original. From the first wear I was finding vastly improved comfort out on the court. These shoes required zero break-in for me. I put them on and went out and played a couple of sets in perfect comfort.
The improved flex in the uppers also goes a long way in making this a faster feeling shoe. I love how fast and responsive this shoe feels at toe-off. The adiPRENE+ cushioning system screams speed every time I load it up with my weight and push off for my next step. The upper flexes so well I hardly notice it's there, that is until I need to come to a stop or make a lateral cut. Then the Sprintweb that wraps around the forefoot of the shoe provides the perfect level of support, and is complemented by the Sprintframe in the heel for a locked in level of stability on tough landings.
The act of changing directions also gets some help from the modified outsole. The combination of both an open and a tight tread pattern allows the shoe to give when coming to an aggressive lateral stop. That give prevents the shoe from getting hung up on the court surface. You don't want too much traction on a lateral stop as it can encourage the shoe to roll. Once I come to a stop the open tread pattern on the lateral edge of the shoe can flex and grab the court, allowing me to push off with confidence.
How fast can I move in this shoe? Well, that's a question I can answer because the adizero Feather II is micoach compatible. I placed the micoach Speedcell in my left shoe during several training sessions, as well as during the video shoot. Once I leave the court I can sync up to my laptop or iPhone and check performance variables such as my maximum speed, distance traveled and number and duration of rallies.
Now, the shoes can tell me how hard I've been working during my training sessions, but are they tough enough to hang in there for the ride? I've hit in these shoes a lot, and I'm happy to report they've held up very well. Considering this is a speed shoe, I'm happy with the outsole durability. While it doesn't come close to the extremely durable Barricade series, I have found them to be more durable than competing speed-oriented shoes.

A high school program involving classes between AE and honors. Students work as a team with devoted teachers that are chosen by the school's Humanitas coordinator. They go on field trips inside and outside of school, that involve whatever it is they study in class. Classes link certain subjects together; for example, if in History, students are learning about the industrial revolution, they might read something in English class by an author writing during that time period. Humanitas is a kickass program, and everyone in it is part of the family.
That was an awesome Humanitas field trip we took to the play-house.

Nissan NV200 people carrier and light Commercial NV200 production details
Article Summary
We first glimpsed Nissan's NV200 small van at the 2007 Tokyo Show when it displayed one of the most intelligent design concepts we've seen for a commercial vehicle. Now, the wraps are off the production version of the global small van and although three versions of the NV200 will be available, the box-within-box concept is sadly gone. Despite feeling we've been short-changed, the NV200 has an intelligent layout with seats that fold unconventionally to offer the largest load space (4.1 m3) in its class, petrol or diesel and a low cost of ownership.

A's looking to sweep Yankees behind Parker
Kuroda hopes to snap New York's six-game Oakland skid
One way or another, it seems like every time the Yankees and A's meet at O.co Coliseum these days, the brooms come out.
In each of the past four series between the two clubs in Oakland, the victor has earned a sweep. The Yankees had swept three consecutive series there before Oakland won four straight games last July, and now the A's are looking for another sweep after taking first two games of a three-game set this week.
Jarrod Parker (5-6, 4.68 ERA) gets the ball for Oakland, looking to build on his recent hot stretch. In his past six starts, Parker has posted a 2.43 ERA -- including a victory over the White Sox in which he went seven frames and allowed two earned runs on Friday.
Fellow right-hander Hiroki Kuroda will start for the Yankees, and he is headed in the opposite direction. Despite a 2.84 ERA on the season, Kuroda has three losses and a no-decision in his past four outings, including a loss to the Mariners on Friday.
According to Kuroda, who surrendered four runs in the fourth inning and nothing else, his problem in that frame was simple: "I got too careful and pitched around too much," Kuroda said.
The Yankees are in the midst of a tough 10-game West Coast trip during which they've gone 3-3.
Unless the Yankees and A's meet in the postseason -- a distinct possibility given their starts to the season -- Thursday marks the final game for legendary Yankees closer Mariano Rivera in Oakland, where he notched his first career victory in 1995. In 31 regular-season appearances there, Rivera has posted a 1.66 ERA.
Rivera also recorded a pair of saves in Oakland in win-or-go-home American League Division Series games. In 2000 he closed a nail-bating 7-5 Yankees victory in Game 5, and in '01 he put the lid on a 1-0 Game 3 victory known best for Derek Jeter's flip to nail Jason Giambi at the plate.
Yankees: Pineda's outing shifted
Michael Pineda will throw a simulated game Friday rather than pitching for a Minor League affiliate because the Yankees prefer that the 24-year-old throw under more controlled conditions.
"The other day he had one long inning, and sometimes you worry about a guy that's rehabbing," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. "This way you can build him up easier. He doesn't have to travel. Physically he's fine. Tuesday he threw his bullpen, and he's ready to go."
The club would like Pineda to throw 75 pitches in the sim game, and hopes to have him up to full strength sometime soon after the All-Star break.
• The Yankees have lost six straight games at the Coliseum.
A's: Crisp, Cespedes nursing injuries
The A's are 27-8 when Coco Crisp and Yoenis Cespedes are both in the starting lineup, and they're just 13-19 without the pair. Both sat Wednesday because of injuries.
"We always feel confident with whomever we run out there," manager Bob Melvin said. "Obviously the results would suggest that we do very well when they're both in there."
Cespedes tweaked his left hamstring in Tuesday's series-opening victory and Crisp is nursing an apparent heel injury.
• The A's have won 20 of their last 25 games.
Worth noting
• A's outfielder Seth Smith is hitting .375 with a .464 on-base percentage in 28 career plate appearances against Kuroda. But he doesn't have a home run. In fact, not a single member of the A's active roster has gone yard against the Yanks right-hander.
• The A's are 10-3 this season in games decided in the final at-bat.
• In 10 lifetime at-bats against Parker, Yankees outfielder Ichiro Suzuki has recorded four hits.

This is a lovely jacket at a great price. However, the sizing is WAY TOO SMALL. I would normally wear a medium jacket but sized up to large. Even the large jacket is about 4 inches too small and the zipper cannot meet. Others looking at the jacekt says it looks like it's for a child and not a woman. I was thinking perhaps I did order a child's jacket. When I looked again, it is really for a adult. I like the jacket very much so I will re-order (if it is availabie) and order 2 sizes up. Now I have to spend $* to return an item that is sized incorrectly. If the sizing was accurate, I would hae marked it 5 stars.
I loved this jacet would have been perfect for riding motorcycle or Alaskan Trip but sad to say the sizing was off I ordered by chart a large and it was too small.

from Berkshires, MA
Working for a film festival, we use these badges to hold festival passes. The design is nice,and the plastic is a nice weight, not cheap. I've used other plastic lanyards before and prefer these above all the others.
Service and delivery comments:
Delivery was fast and I appreciated that they offered overnight delivery.
Great product
By Tami
from Bettendorf, IA
This size is perfect to hold other items, such as tickets for conferences and meetings.
By Diana
from Willoughby, Ohio
I was in desperate need of this item and was getting no help from my long-time supplier. A coworker recommended IDVille. [...] It is a sturdier badge holder than we had been ordering for years. It was also 1/2 the price charged by our regular (now former) supplier.
Quick, excellent delivery and follow-up. This is my new supplier for badge holders and strap clips.
Great contrast to the eariler one.
By Ms Jo Administrative Assistant
from Birmingham, Alabama
This is great when you don't need to use the more secure one with the red strip.

from west deptford, NJ
I used these for "backstage passes", a.k.a. invitations to my son and daughter's backyard music festival birthday parties! They turned out so cute and were the perfect size and price. [...]

Miley battles Cubs eyeing continued resurgence
Southpaw owns 1.25 ERA in last three starts, faces off vs. Wood
Saturday at Chase Field marks a meeting between two former All-Stars who were trending in distinctively different directions heading into the All-Star break.
D-backs left-hander Wade Miley's 4.18 ERA is far off the 3.33 mark he set during his 2012 All-Star season. But in his last three games before the Midsummer Classic, Miley registered a 1.25 ERA and a 2-0 record.
Miley has held opponents to a .171 batting average over that span as has struck out 22 over 21 2/3 innings. Yet if you ask him, there's not much change to see.
"[I've been] just trying to go out and stick to the plan, just get a chance to win," Miley said. "Haven't really put a whole lot of thought into it. Just preparing the same way I prepare, just having a little success, trying to keep it rolling."
Cubs left-hander Travis Wood hasn't been as fortunate in the success department. In his last start before the break, the Braves rocked Wood for seven earned runs across six innings.
Wood's ERA has inflated from 3.11 to 4.96 since his breakout 2013 campaign and his struggles have been even greater on the road, where he owns a 4-5 record and a 6.05 ERA.
While the Cubs are nowhere near contention, manager Rick Renteria still knows there's plenty to be accomplished in the second half, including a turnaround from Wood.
"We just have to get ready for the remainder of the season and they know everybody has to go out there and make their push," Renteria said. "At this point, I'm hopeful that they're going to come out and play the game."
Cubs: Rizzo leaving forgettable 2013 in dust
First baseman Anthony Rizzo compiled two more homers Friday evening, bringing his 2014 tally up to 22. That's just one shy of his entire 2013 total in a season in which he hit just .233.
Rizzo took a step back last year after slugging .463 in his first season with the Cubs following a change of scenery from San Diego. Now, in the second year of a seven-year, $41 million contract, Rizzo has fulfilled the Cubs invest by hitting .278.
Rizzo earned his first All Star appearance this season. Rizzo struck out in his only plate appearance on a foul tip, but that didn't stop him from soaking in the experience before the Midsummer Classic.
D-backs: Peralta silver lining in tough season
Injuries and ineffectiveness have dragged the D-backs' season down, but they've also provided outfielder David Peralta with an opportunity to make a name for himself.
Peralta, who is batting .326, is a converted pitcher and was seventh in the D-backs' outfield pecking order to begin the season.
Peralta finished Friday's game 2-for-4 with a double. Even with the return of Mark Trumbo, Peralta should receive regular playing time against right-handers. A.J. Pollock's mid-August return from a fractured right hand could complicate things, but Peralta's emergence leaves manager Kirk Gibson with a good problem to have.
Worth Noting
• Renteria announced that right-hander Kyle Hendricks will start Tuesday's series opener against the Padres. Renteria has yet to declare who will be the Cubs' fifth starter to begin the second half.
• While he's eligible to be activated immediately, D-backs shortstop Chris Owings isn't expected to return from his bruised left shoulder for at least a few more weeks.

Blue Jays try to stay hot against visiting Angels
Los Angeles' Williams set to oppose Toronto's Buehrle
When the Angels visit the Blue Jays at Rogers Centre on Tuesday, two of the hotter teams in baseball will meet as both clubs continue to try to end the season strong following unmet preseason expectations. The Blue Jays have won nine of their last 12 and four consecutive series, including a weekend sweep of the Twins at Target Field, while the Angels have won 12 of their last 17 games.
Both clubs had high hopes heading into the season but have not lived up to the billing. This is due partly to key players getting injured, which has resulted in new faces seeing some playing time.
"We've got a great mix and match going with some young players and some veteran players, mostly young players; it's been fun to watch," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. "These guys are running hard. They're playing hard. It's been fun to watch these guys rebound from the depths of what's been a very frustrating season."
The Angels will send Jerome Williams to the mound Tuesday. Williams has made three straight quality starts, and he has a 2.91 ERA over his last four appearances, which includes one scoreless relief outing.
Last time Williams was on the mound, he held the Rays to two earned runs over 6 1/3 innings, and he struck out seven.
"Felt good," Williams said. "Just wanted to do the normal things, just put up zeros and keep the guys in the hunt for a win.
"I'm just going out here and doing my job, trying to do my best. … Whatever happens, happens. As long as, at the end of the day, end of the season, I can look myself in the mirror and say, 'I did OK,' that's fine."
The Blue Jays will turn to Mark Buehrle, who continues to pitch well after a rocky start to the season. Buehrle has gone 10-5 with a 2.99 ERA and 102 strikeouts in 144 1/3 innings over his last 22 starts.
"I've got a couple more starts left, and I'm going to go out there and try to finish the season strong," Buehrle said. "Personally, I feel like I'm back to where I've been throughout my career. I just wish we were in a better spot than we are."
Angels: Bourjos' season ending early
Shortly after Sunday's loss to the Rangers, the Angels announced that Peter Bourjos would have surgery on his right wrist and miss the rest of the season.
Bourjos had hoped to be able to play through the pain, but he was unable to take quality swings.
The center fielder fractured his wrist when he was hit by a pitch June 29, missed seven weeks and returned to the Angels' lineup after an eight-game rehab assignment.
However, he was not the same. Bourjos hit .109 in 15 games and has started only two of the last 10.
The recovery from the surgery is supposed to take about eight weeks, so Bourjos will be healthy for Spring Training.
• Angels manager Mike Scioscia said second baseman Howie Kendrick had a "great workout" Monday, and he hoped to be available to play at some point during the Toronto series. Kendrick has been sidelined since Aug. 5 with a sore left knee.
Blue Jays: Reyes' ankle nearing full strength
Jose Reyes has been hobbled almost all season with a left ankle sprain, but it appears the issue is finally behind him.
Reyes missed two and a half months with the sprained ankle, and despite returning in June, he has not enjoyed his usual mobility on defense or on the basepaths.
Not only has the shortstop's range improved greatly, he is also running with more ease, and he has stopped thinking about his ankle when he is in the field.
"I feel like it's way better," Reyes said. "The last two weeks, it has come along very good. I feel a lot looser. I still feel it a little bit, but it's way better than it was before. So, that's good to see, and I feel happy about it that I can run on the field, do my stuff, without thinking about anything else."
The 30-year-old continues to wear a special brace that he will most likely use for the rest of his career, although he will benefit from extra rest during the offseason.
"The season isn't over yet, and I feel that good," Reyes said. "I still feel it a little bit, but it's way better than it was months ago. Hopefully, I'll keep feeling better, and I can go into the offseason with a better idea and go to Spring Training 100 percent, and do what I do best, just play my game."
Worth noting
• Mark Trumbo hit his 30th home run Friday, making him the first Angels player to hit at least 30 in back-to-back seasons since Vladimir Guerrero did it 2004-06.
• With the sweep of the Twins, the Blue Jays have won a season-high four straight series, going 9-3 in that stretch.

Mirror image: Sox, Cards sport numerous similarities
Waino-Lester a fitting Game 1 matchup as Fall Classic begins at Fenway
BOSTON -- The similarities between the Red Sox and Cardinals are unmistakable, from their successes to their approaches to their reputations.
Mike Matheny sees it, too.
"You hear some of the things that they say," the Cardinals' manager said of his next opponent, "and it's a lot of similar things that have been preached in our clubhouse. That it's about team; it's not about us individually. And grinding out at-bats and playing tough, playing hard, playing all the way through nine. Those are the things that I believe set good teams apart."
On Wednesday night at Fenway Park -- air time on FOX is 7:30 p.m. ET, with first pitch at 8:07 -- they'll try to separate themselves in Game 1, with Jon Lester and Adam Wainwright fittingly kicking off the fourth World Series meeting between two of baseball's most storied franchises.
Lester is the Red Sox's ace, one of four holdovers from their last World Series team of six years ago -- along with Dustin Pedroia, David Ortiz and Jacoby Ellsbury -- and a guy who has given up just five runs through 19 1/3 innings this postseason.
The last time he took the ball in a World Series game -- as a 23-year-old winding down his second season -- Lester locked down the Rockies to complete a four-game sweep in 2007.
"Obviously tomorrow there will still be nerves, there will still be all that to be expected," Lester said. "But I think I know who I am a little bit more as a pitcher and what to expect from myself, and what to expect from the crowd and all the different things that go along with getting a start in the World Series."
Wainwright bookended the National League Division Series with wins over the Pirates, most recently took the ball in Game 3 of the NL Championship Series against the Dodgers -- putting him on eight days' rest for Game 1 -- and has a 1.57 ERA in three postseason starts.
On a pitching staff full of rookies, the 32-year-old Wainwright is the one who makes these Cardinals go. He is, as Matheny said, "the guy that sets the tone for our club, especially our pitching staff. It's fitting that he'll be out there."
And it's fitting that these two teams are here, after each finished the regular season with a Major League-best 97-65 record, ranked first and second in run differential and dispatched of their most recent opponents in six games. Dating back to 2004, they're the only teams with three World Series appearances apiece.
On Wednesday night, they'll meet in the Fall Classic for the first time since Boston swept in 2004.
Teams that win Game 1 have won 20 of the past 24 World Series.
"We're up for the challenge," Ellsbury said. "They're going to be very tough. They've showed a lot of poise, they compete, but we're definitely excited for the opportunity."
"They've got some good players, they've got some veteran guys that know how to play the game the right way and we respect them," Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina added. "But at the same time, we've got some good guys over here that play the game the right way, too. We know how to win. It's going to be fun. It's going to be a good Series."
The Red Sox -- looking for their eighth title overall, and third in the past 10 years -- sport bearded, battle-tested veterans like Ortiz, Pedroia, Napoli and Shane Victorino, deploy one of baseball's best closers in Koji Uehara, boast a more veteran staff with Lester, John Lackey, Clay Buchholz and Jake Peavy, have the No. 1 basestealer in Ellsbury and scored more runs than anyone in baseball this past season.
The Cardinals -- four wins away from their 12th title and third in the past eight years -- have the best catcher in the game, will get Allen Craig back, deploy probably the most dangerous October force in Carlos Beltran, posted the second-best rotation ERA in 2013, batted .330 with runners in scoring position during the regular season and come at you with a pitching staff rich in young, live arms, from starter Michael Wacha to closer Trevor Rosenthal.
The Birds and the Beards -- about as good a World Series matchup as you could've hoped for.
But as idle Cardinals starter Chris Carpenter said: "When you get to this spot in the season, it's not about matchups -- it's about going out and executing and playing baseball and doing the things that you need to do to win, and hopefully getting a break here and there to take advantage of. We're both really, really good teams, and we're going to go out and play the best we can and see what happens."
Cardinals: Craig will have to be a quick study
They say you can't simulate Major League intensity -- so what about World Series intensity?
Craig, officially added to the World Series roster on Tuesday, is expected to start at designated hitter in Game 1. And when he digs into the box at Fenway Park on Wednesday night, the first in-game pitch he sees in seven weeks will come on baseball's highest stage and from the left arm of one of baseball's best pitchers.
"The most important thing for me is just to focus on competing," Craig said. "I'm really focusing on that more than how I feel."
Craig batted .315/.373/.457 before suffering a left foot injury on Sept. 4. He missed most of the last month of the regular season and the first two rounds of the playoffs. But he's been working to get back for the Fall Classic, and on Sunday and Monday, he did well against live pitching.
Still, Wednesday will be different.
"He is such a prolific hitter, it's definitely worth the chance," Cards general manager John Mozeliak said. "We're trying to get him as much live pitching as we can, but to simulate Game 1 of a World Series is virtually impossible. We'll do the best we can."
Red Sox: Soon enough, Ortiz will man first base
Farrell confirmed that Ortiz will play first base when the series shifts to the NL rules of Busch Stadium in St. Louis.
"How many days he'll play in those three game there remains to be seen," said Farrell.
It'll depend on the matchups, but the entire Cardinals rotation is right-handed and Ortiz mashed righties in typical fashion this season, with a .339/.440/.652 slash line in 384 plate appearances. So it's fair to say that in Games 3, 4 and 5 -- Saturday, Sunday and next Monday, if necessary -- the Red Sox will be sacrificing defense for offense at that position by sitting Napoli for Ortiz, who has started only 25 games at the position since the Red Sox's last trip to the World Series in '07.
But it isn't too much of a sacrifice, left fielder Jonny Gomes urges.
"I've seen Big Papi play a lot, and the guy can play first, a 100 percent," Gomes said. "This isn't a huge defensive downgrade. If you ask me, we can go hashtag Gold Glove on Napoli, because I think he deserves it a 100 percent. But David Ortiz isn't going to kill us by any means."
Worth noting
• This is only the third time since the Wild Card era began in 1995 that the two best teams in each league, record-wise, met in the World Series. It also happened in 1995 (Braves-Indians) and '99 (Braves-Yankees).
• Both managers announced their starting pitchers for Thursday's Game 2, with 11-year veteran John Lackey starting for the Red Sox and rookie Michael Wacha taking the ball for the Cardinals.
• To create a spot for Craig, the Cardinals left outfielder Adron Chambers off their World Series roster. The Red Sox kept the same 25-man roster from the ALCS.
• The Cardinals and Red Sox haven't faced each other outside of Spring Training since the 2008 regular season. The Cardinals have won six of nine all-time regular-season meetings, but the Red Sox have won 10 of 18 in the World Series. St. Louis won the 1946 and '67 World Series vs. Boston, then the Red Sox swept in 2004 to end an 86-year drought.
• This is the 109th edition of the World Series. The AL has won 62 of them, but the NL has won three straight and five of the last seven with wins by the Cardinals in '06, the Phillies in '08, the Giants in '10, the Cardinals in '11 and the Giants again in '12.

Gallery: Mexico City Public Library Surrounded by Botanical Garden
The interior includes a vast collection of books, a music room, kids room, Braille collection, an auditorium and conference rooms.
The botanical garden, just like the books and computers inside the library is a source of knowledge and acts to educate the visitors of the library. The Vasconcelos Library was built on barren landscape in the middle of the city and the surrounding gardens are part of an attempt at urban ecological regeneration. There are over 60,000 specimens of 168 species of trees, shrubs and herbaceous plants with over 26,000 square meters of garden area. The roofs of the building are also covered in vegetation and serve to insulate and protect the buildings below.
Alberto Kalach and his team designed and built the "Megabiblioteca" during Vicente Fox's administration and it was first completed in 2006, but had to undergo some major repairs before it reopened in 2008. The interior is out of a futuristic dream with cantilevered levels of books, translucent floors and walls, steel cross supports and large floor to ceiling windows. The library is also an attempt to reorganize human knowledge and the collection contains 575,000 books across 40,000 thousand meters of shelving.

Garry Rayno's State House Dome: Highway funding a never-ending battle
The House Public Works Committee and the House wanted a gas tax hike to pay for the shortfall in the Interstate 93 widening project from Salem to Manchester, as well as the growing red-listed bridges and paving projects.
Meanwhile, the Senate approved a casino gambling plan that would have dedicated about 40 percent of the state's revenue to fixing transportation infrastructure and finishing the I-93 project. The House killed that plan.
The I-93 widening is $250 million short; about $40 million will have to be found somewhere for the Spaulding work.
Clement and the Executive Council, as the Governor's Advisory Commission on Intermodal Transportation, are working to develop recommendations for the 10-year plan.
The transportation system is funded basically in three ways: federal highway money, which has been stagnant; gas tax and car registration revenues that go into the highway fund, and tolls that pay for the turnpike system.
"I'm concentrated on providing the best value for the traveling public and New Hampshire taxpayer in the most efficient way possible, but it's been 22 years." The gas tax was last raised in 1992,
The one-time fixes are over, Clement said, and his department faces a $48 million deficit in fiscal 2016 and a $110 million deficit the year after.
"For the sake of transparency, I wanted to put in the turnpike projects that are not funded in the 10-year plan to show the shortfalls," Clement said.
The commission is about to finish its work and turn over its recommendation to Gov. Maggie Hassan, who will decide what she wants to keep in the improvement program. Then it will be up to lawmakers to make recommendations.
Several terms ago, the 10-year plan was a wish list with projects that would never be completed without additional funding. But lawmakers and transportation officials worked to develop realistic blueprints for the last few two-year cycles.

The Dean of the Executive Council, Raymond Burton, R-Bath, hardly ever misses a meeting, and for the Oct. 16 meeting, he participated by phone because he was undergoing additional treatment for cancer.
Known for his constituent service, he traveled the highways and byways of northern New Hampshire in one of his restored older model cars, flew into all the airports in his district, walked in uncountable parades and appeared at what must be tens of thousands of events.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the District 1 councilor.

LGC RECOMMENDATIONS: The committee to review a hearings officer's report on the N.H. Local Government Center essentially finalized its report last week and is expected to introduce legislation for 2014 containing some of its key recommendations.
Former Senate President and current Sen. Peter Bragdon, R-Milford, is the executive director of Health Trust, which oversees LGC's health insurance program.
Another key issue was what entity should regulate public risk pools: current regulator the Bureau of Securities Regulation or the Insurance Department.
The report leaves open the possibility that the bureau be moved to the Insurance Department, where it once was before it was moved to the Secretary of State's Office.
The hearings officer ruled in 2012 that the LGC had misspent more than $50 million that should be returned to its customers.

ARTS AWARDS: The 2013 Governor's Arts Awards will be presented at a ceremony Nov. 6 at the New Hampshire Institute of Art. One of the recipients will be Peter Ramsey, longtime executive director of the Palace Theatre in Manchester.
Other recipients include Brian Chagnon of Farmington, SAU 61 TV studio manager, Arts Education Award; Concord Hospital, Cultural Access Leadership Award; Frumie Selchen of Wonalancet, executive director of the Arts Alliance of Northern New Hampshire, Distinguished Arts Leadership Award; Barbara Fisher of Sunapee, Folk Heritage Award; Thomas and Barbara Putnam of Keene, Individual Arts Patron Award; Marguerite Mathews of the Pontine Theatre in Portsmouth, Lotte Jacobi Living Treasure Award; and Pedro Pimentel of Concord High School, Youth Arts Leadership Award.
"The arts have long contributed to both New Hampshire's cultural identity and economy," said Gov. Maggie Hassan. "The Governor's Arts Awards are an opportunity to thank members of our arts community for the outstanding work they've done throughout the state."
