Red-hot Arroyo aims to cool surging Dodgers
Ryu looks to rebound from rusty outing last time out in Toronto
When the Reds take the field on Saturday, they'll send their hottest pitcher to the mound to try to slow down the Dodgers, who are 7-1 since the All-Star break.
Bronson Arroyo enters Saturday coming off his sixth career shutout, as the 36-year-old right-hander held the Giants to seven hits while striking out six on Monday. It took Arroyo just 108 pitches to deliver career complete game No. 15, which moved him to 9-7 on the year and gave him his 100th Major League win.
Since alowing seven runs in four innings on June 25 in his worst outing of the year, Arroyo has gone 3-1 with a 1.61 ERA in four starts. And with the Reds falling to the Dodgers, 2-1, on Friday, Arroyo, who is 6-0 following a Cincinnati loss this season, is the perfect man to start Saturday's matchup.
"I try not to pitch any different, but to be honest, sometimes there's an urgency to the mood in the clubhouse," Arroyo said of pitching after a loss. "This game is very difficult and nobody can go out there and just say, 'I'm going to win the ballgame today.' So, it's partly probably luck and a bit of trying to just really want to not let your team slide downhill again."
Hyun-Jin Ryu, who will start opposite Arroyo on Saturday, hasn't suffered a loss since June 19. However, he wasn't nearly as sharp as he'd like in his last outing on Monday, when he gave up four runs on nine hits and two walks in 5 1/3 innings against the Blue Jays in Toronto. Ryu also struck out three batters in that game, but manager Don Mattingly said he didn't quite look the same after 11 days off due to the break.
"His command was a little in and out," Mattingly said. "I almost feel [the rest] was a detriment to him as far as being sharp. It maybe rested him, but I felt like it was a little bit of a detriment to him as far as being sharp with his breaking stuff."
Reds: Hanigan not ready to return
Ryan Hanigan was eligible to come off the 15-day disabled list on Thursday, but the Reds catcher feels like he needs more time to recover from his sprained left wrist before returning to the lineup.
"I decided to give it the last two days to just do treatment and break over the hump there," Hanigan said. "The pain is still in there. It's gotten a lot better."
Out of action since July 11, Hanigan tested the wrist in the batting cage on Friday. In 46 games this season, Hanigan has batted .193 with 14 RBIs and two homers, but he's been valuable behind the plate, throwing out 11 of 21 (52 percent) attempted basestealers.
Dodgers: Kemp aims for Aug. 6 return
While Matt Kemp is on the disabled list for the third time this season, he's accepted blame for his current injury. Kemp sprained his left ankle sliding into home on Sunday, but he likely wouldn't have had to slide if he hadn't started jogging to the plate after a Carl Crawford grounder with the bases loaded.
"Everything you do as a player you want to learn from," Mattingly said. "You make mistakes on the field and you want guys to learn from that and get better from that. Matt doesn't want to do that again. So, you'd like to think that makes him a little bit better."
Kemp hopes to put his most recent injury behind him as quickly as possible, and although he hasn't started baseball-related activities, he is optimistic that he can return to the lineup as soon as he is eligible on Aug. 6 against the Cardinals.
"At this point, I'm just kind of hopeful that he's going to be ready to roll in 15 days," Mattingly said. "He's still limping a little bit. Yesterday, he came in and said he felt really good."
Worth noting
• The Dodgers have the best record in baseball since June 21, when they were a season-worst 12 games under .500, going 24-6 in that span. Their 16-5 mark so far in July is on pace for one of the best months in franchise history.
• With a base hit on Friday, Reds first baseman Joey Votto has reached safely in 38 straight games, just three short of matching his career high.
• Among NL teams, the Dodgers have the best record against the Reds since 2006, going 33-16 (.673), including 16-7 (.696) at Dodger Stadium.

Great job by Kim Lucine; Prince Albert would be proud (though I admit the video I'm watching is all messed up, lol).
Kim Lucine
Nice style- summertime, nice combo turn out in between, nice spread eagle into 2A, spins slow but nice varaiation, nice use of the music, lovely transition into 3L but just held on so GOE wont be that great but should be rewarded for excellent transition on that, lovely bit of aeroblading at the end, crowd likes it, might struggle without the 3A. Lets hope he pulls through should get 55-58.
Chafik Besseghier
Piano in A Minor performed by Maksim Mrvica - fast program and really attacked it, but fast paced all the way through, great 3x3, 3A was there not sure if it was short of rotation but I will give it to him, good speed and coverage, use of music could have been better and needed some light and shade in it, lovely combination spin, should score well with. Competition is hotting up!! Guys
Last edited by russell30; 01-26-2012 at 10:23 AM.
Why did Chafik have a deduction? I missed part of his performance...
Knock on wood, video has improved!
Voronov did a nice quad, too bad about the 3A though, but I had to LOL when I saw the soccer ball uniform. :D
I can't wait to see Javier & Joubert (he might finally get his chance to beat his nemesis).
Sergei Voronov
Music from the A league of their Own OST - not sure what has happened with voronov but did not like the program - very flat, all over the place here a big waxel. Spins were not aligned enough, I think after he blew the combo - lost concentration. Needs Urmanov back.
Sorry must have missed the quad, hard being a journo and watching live
Last edited by russell30; 01-26-2012 at 10:24 AM.
Also I honestly cannot wait to see Artur Gachinski, because when he's on he deserves high marks. At Russian Nationals I would have given him the win over Zhenya, and here he will get the win over him if he skates clean.
russell30, I thought it was a quad, but maybe not?
We will see Nadine, I think Plushy has laid down the gauntlet even without a quad. As someone pointed out before I think plushy's score was a bit over the top, but we have seen that all season with Chan. The next group is a good group we shall see, Plushenko in the crowd holding his breath.

It's the rubber game of the Battle of the Beltways today at Camden Yards.
BALTIMORE — Interleague play allows for a bit of lineup tinkering, and Jim Riggleman is trying something a little different for today's series finale against the Orioles: Both of his catchers are starting.
Ivan Rodriguez will be behind the plate, but Wilson Ramos will serve as DH. Can't fault the logic behind this move, because both guys have been among the Nationals' better hitters of late. And even if something were to happen to Pudge, Ramos could take over as catcher and the Nats would simply lose the DH and play by NL rules the rest of the way.
Adam LaRoche also gets today off, with Michael Morse starting at first base. Obviously, Riggleman sacrifices some defense by doing that, but LaRoche has shown no signs of snapping out of his season-long funk at the plate, and Morse has been swinging a bit of a hot bat himself (5 for his last 12).

I have been looking over Brad Peacock's performances this year and I,m a bit baffled. Peacock has been with the team since 2007 and has gone through every level from the GCL to Harrisburg; his performances have been consistently mediocre at every level for 4 years now all of the sudden he is pitching at an incredibly high level which could not have been predicted. Mark; have you heard any discussion about this internally? has he developed a new trick pitch or something? is he considered a real prospect? All the guys in Syracuse have been fair with the exception of Detwiler who has been pretty disappointing; I can see Milone and/or Meyers with a shot at the majors at some point because they will perform at roughly the same level as Lannan but cost a lot less; still these are all 4th and 5th starters.
- Doc - May 22, 2011 at 3:53 PM
Glad to see that Riggleman is taking our advice on using Morse at 1B—I mean how bad does LaRouche have to get at the plate before he is forced to grab some pine. Keep it up Jim, and we'll make you an honorary member of the Nats Insider!This is our game—Goooooooooooooooo JZimm, Goooooooooooooooooo Nats!!!!!
- JD - May 22, 2011 at 3:57 PM
Doc, Just as long as you don't whine when Morse can't dig out a throw in the dirt.
- Grandstander - May 22, 2011 at 4:02 PM
So, is Stares going to be released? As Mark noted earlier, if he's not going to DH, why is he on the roster? Are they just gonna have him take up a roster spot until Ankiel gets activated because there's no one else to bring up?Why not bring up Josh Wilkie for a cup of coffee and carry an extra reliever? It's better than just having a guy sitting on the bench who can't do anything.Hopefully this lineup can produce some runs. Werth seems to be heating up a bit and with LaRoche out this is the first time we've had a solid 1-5 this season.
- Doc - May 22, 2011 at 4:05 PM
JD, I promise!If he has a good day at the plate, I'll expect reciprocal kudos from you.Goooooooooooooo Mickey Morse!Goooooooooooooooooooooo Nats!
- BinM - May 22, 2011 at 4:32 PM
JD: Something clicked for Brad Peacock last year in Potomac, in that he found a change-up. He now has three pitches that he can throw for strikes anywhere in the count. His numbers in HAR so far are probably well beyond what most people on the Nationals staff ever expected to see from a 41st-rounder.
- CBinDC - May 22, 2011 at 4:53 PM
Well if you want any more proof of the Nationals second class maybe third class treatment on MASN …the Nationals section has not been updated for since Friday and now the link ads are all Baltocentric ….I wish I knew what FP said about the Baltocentric nature of this occupation broadcast ……I said before and will say it again this is like having to have dinner with the person who sued to take the right-of-way to your property and charges you a toll to get in your house. Lets hope that we can make them choke on their crabs hon.
- Cwj - May 22, 2011 at 5:25 PM
Got a good feeling about this game.Maybe if the game is close in the later innings, LaRoche will come in as defensive replacement.Go Nats!!!
- LSU2003MPA - May 22, 2011 at 5:42 PM
Wow..2 whole pitches before Riggleman gets thrown out. Hope this is not a sign of what to expect today. Come on Nats….Let's go!
- CBinDC - May 22, 2011 at 5:43 PM
Sooo once again on the short short end of the call by rookie AAA umpire ……why does not Riggleman just make it worth a toss and throw a base or bat or a few loud choice words I can hear on the surround sound ….ohhhh brother
- Manassas Nats Fan - May 22, 2011 at 5:49 PM
LOved how the FP jumped on Hunter for defending the umpire. You can't multi task at home plate. Either you are watching the pitch of the batters feet you can't watch both to make a call like he did.
- dj in Fl - May 22, 2011 at 5:50 PM
Riggleman does not get paid enough to pay the fine foe throwing things.Way to give them heck in the booth FP

Who takes over for RIggleman?
- Section 222 - May 22, 2011 at 6:18 PM
The ump wasn't multitasking. The play was right in front of him, and the replay showed he was correct. All the complaining by Nats announcers (and fans) is getting kind of old, and this really takes the cake. FP needs to save his beefing for plays when the ump actually misses the call. The O's announcers made fun of him and then ignored him. Well deserved.

The stepping on the plate occurs about once a week that I have watched baseball for 50 years. Never once have I seen it called. It like the phantom DP it just is ignored. WHy not ignored today?Do the players not know the strike zone. TO often swing at balls and not swing at strikes. – for 4 RISP nothing new there.

His numbers in HAR so far are probably well beyond what most people on the Nationals staff ever expected to see from a 41st-rounder.Brad Meyers has been throwing up similar numbers. Limiting walks and so has a reasonable ERA but a WHIP under 1. Stammen has a complete game and a shutout in addition to similar numbers with a slightly above 1 WHIP. Maya pretty much the same … he by far has the largest repertoire of major league pitches. All for a dead last team with no offense early on. Peacock will likely get promoted sooner than later. Detwiler might just end up in the bullpen or get swapped back to AA.
- Anonymous - May 22, 2011 at 6:37 PM
Marerro is up to .278 now following a pretty consistent offensive path throughout his minor league career. He also now has 4 home runs having hit one today in support of an 8-0 lead for Craig Stammen.
- Cavalier83 - May 22, 2011 at 6:42 PM

I will ask the same question again. You have one of the best bullpens in the Majors and they are rested. Why do you bring Jordan Zimmermann out in the 7th when you can go Clippard, Burnett and Storen with a 1-0 lead.
- Anonymous - May 22, 2011 at 8:04 PM
I will ask the same question again. You have one of the best bullpens in the Majors and they are rested.Because Zimmermann was pitching a 1 hitter and looking pretty dominant. Now look at what Clippard did? Its hard to know when to pull a starter and in a 1 – 0 game with three potential innings left? They really need worry about scoring runs not worry about switching out pitching.
- Cwj - May 22, 2011 at 8:18 PM
As Anon8 said the Nats have a dominant bullpen. I would have pulled Zimmermann after the 6th.Seems to be a new trend for the Nats to leave in their starters one batter too many. Then again, it's a tough call. At least we can't blame Riggs for this.
- Cwj - May 22, 2011 at 8:29 PM
Very frustrating series. Hard to believe they scored 17 runs two days ago.
- Dave - May 22, 2011 at 8:29 PM
"Washington Nationals. Expect it."I am deeply sorry to say that I got pretty much what I expected today. Bummer par excellence.
- Bobby Knight - May 22, 2011 at 8:29 PM
WHay would anyone take a third strike with the runner moving and allow a strike'm out throw out double play. Either both batters are not very smart, or not very well coached. I will take the second guess.I cannot believe for well over 2 seasons now I have called for Eck's firing, and every day I wake up and he still here. I guess I will never see the day where we get a coach who is aggressively coaching in.

You don't run on Weiter's arm but nobody told Rigglemam. Nats deserve to lose.

As Anon8 said the Nats have a dominant bullpen. I would have pulled Zimmermann after the 6th.And Clippard was dilly-dallying, walking hitters worrying about base runners when he should have been pitching. They almost scored more runs.Zimmermann looked dominant (unlike Marquis two nights ago). He is the defacto #1 starter. At some point you have to start treating him like he is the #1 or #2 starter not a #4/#5 back of the rotation starter. And you see what happens … McLaren did the right thing IMHO. Its what the Nats did not do that's glaring and that's drive in runs with men on base. They had bases loaded a couple of time? They now are 5 games under .500 … if they start creeping toward 10 under changes will be made by Rizzo. Have to see what he decides. Certainly, at this point Marquis presents as some decent trade bait. 3 starters in Syracuse look ready … and 1 in Harrisburg.
- Manassas Nats Fan - May 22, 2011 at 8:35 PM
There was no indication that Zim was tiring. Only had 84 pitches. I had no problem going into the 7th. My problem was I would not let him pitch to the runner who could take the lead. Once the first single was done, he was out. How on earth do the batter in many more games than not screw our pitchers by not hitting. Do they feel no guilt. If so then fix if not just keep doing the same thing.
- Manassas Nats Fan - May 22, 2011 at 8:37 PM
Why wait to get 10 below .500 to make changes. be proactive.That is my problem, the reason they lose most of the games they lose exactly the same. So fix the problem. IF these guys aren't interested in producing get someone who is.

Only Riggleman would get himself tossed on the first play of the game over a call that (while rare) was indisputably correct. Mark, I'd like to pitch a show idea to CSN: a weekly strategy session with Riggles. Working title? Jim's Amateur Hour.

Does anyone else think that the way MASN does this series, sucks.I may not be as favorable on F.P. Santangelo as I should be, but F.P. and Bob Carpenter are our guys. The last thing I want is a three man booth with Orioles guys.I also hate getting a Orioles point of view, graphics and overall bias toward the Os. It's not like there guys are bad, they are first class but they are Oriole guys and I want my guys.Of course it will change in a couple of weeks when the Nats are home, but I really feel strongly that we should have our own broadcast and our own bias. MASN has two networks, just do a Orioles show and a Nats show and forget this shared production.Mark, I really feel you should do a poll of readers to see how many others feel the same way. Thanks

Golfersal – I completely agree. I felt bad for F.P.. Listening to him with the O's bias all around made me feel like when I visit family and end up listening to everyone around me talk politics. Oy.

I was at the game. Nick Markakis beat us. Believe it or not, two very crucial plays. Werth could not score on Pudge's flyout because Markakis's throw was spot on. He also tracked down Bernadina's liner with bases loaded. Two huge plays where nats could have busted the game right open. Jordan pitched well. He cruised until the seventh (except that 2nd or third inning where couple of runners were in scoring position). I was sitting where Vlad hit the homer. As soon as he did that, I knew we had little chance of a comeback.

I HATE the mixed coverage. I absolutely do not think this would happen anywhere else. If it does, please let us know. I don't need a constant reminder of the way Angelos tried to keep the nats out of dc and blackmailed mlb. If I wanted to see Orioles coverage I would change to MASN 1 — the main masn station, where you will find the O's – the nats get relegated to masn 1 – if you can find it. There's a good reason for my blog name.

@Anon 4:34- Re bullpen and Zimm.Yeah, I have no idea why Clippard was so distracted by the runner (who was apparently not a base stealing threat).He's pitched with runners on base many many times and should know better. At least he did finally get out of it after all.Still, had he started the inning he likely would have pitched differently and the Nats might have won the game 1-0. Who knows? You made some good points about Zimmermann. He is the staff ace, and looks to be legit.
- Richard - May 22, 2011 at 10:28 PM
Agree that (1) MASN's approach to Nats – Os sucks, and while we're at it, that (2) MASN pre- and post-game shows and Taylor interviews re the Nats suck, and (3) MASN sports talk featuring anyone but especially Phil Wood sucks.
- Cwj - May 22, 2011 at 10:33 PM
So, the Nats are 21-25 .457That puts them on pace to go about 74-88. It would be hard for them to continue to hit so poorly for the remainder of the season, so perhaps 77-81 wins is still possible.
- Mark'd - May 22, 2011 at 10:38 PM
Showalter had a quick hook in all 3 games and worked out to control the game Saturday and Sunday. JZim deserved better, again.I agree with a rested pen to use them since the offense was asleep AGAIN!
- FS - May 22, 2011 at 10:54 PM
Buck was forced to take out Tillman in today's game. We hit him pretty well. About 6 or 7 hits, couple of walks, a HBP, and not to forget some line drives. Oh and great at bats by Danny. Wished he did not strike out his first time up.I am also surprised that Os bullpen was used a lot against Bos and NYY. Nationals should have done more damage to the bullpen than the starters. We always seem to run out of gas by 7th or 8th inning.
- Richard - May 23, 2011 at 12:46 AM
Marrero had a good game today in Rochester both at the plate and in the field. His BA has moved into the .280s. With LaRoche struggling and maybe hurt I'm wondering if we'll see Marrero soon. At this point, with no offense, and if Marrero's ready, why not.
- Anonymous - May 23, 2011 at 2:03 AM
At this point, with no offense, and if Marrero's ready, why not.Richard,At this point I don't think you'll see 22 year old Chris Marerro, at least not yet. Riggleman would have to agree to play him every day before that would happen. And I really doubt that Riggleman would agree to that easily. Clark, Kline, et al, the guys in charge of player development want Marerro to play every day wherever he goes at this point. He is only 22 and they want to see him develop. Michael Aubrey, on the other hand, is 29 years old bats left with power and his days as a prospect are long gone at age 29. He has equivalent numbers to Marerro in AAA and a lot better just in May. This would allow Riggleman to platoon Morse and Aubrey against right and left-handed pitching. This what I think you'd have to expect to see instead. Sorry … it is disappointing but remember, Riggleman wanted 43 year old Matt "Stares". Do you actually believe he would go for 22 year old Marerro playing every day? With a right handed bat? He likes the left-handed bats near the heart of the lineup.- peric

Agree with all the MASN comments. I hate this mixed booth. Why do they continue to force this on us when you have 2 channels, for two separate and distinct cities, MASN and MASN2? Would any other "professional" sports town put up with this nonsense like New York – Yankees-Mets; Chicago – Cubs White Sox; Bay Area – Oakland San Fran??? Does ANYBODY else do this????NO!!! It was "cute" in year one, now it's just plain annoying. I've written to them about this and them advertising for the O's during Nats games. They got rid of the O's during Nats games and now it's time to get rid of the mixed booth.
- Golfersal - May 24, 2011 at 4:18 AM
So Mark, the people have spoken, nobody likes this MASN approach toward Nat/Os games, how about a story about it?

Rachel Jeantel, 19, acknowledged parts of her story changed over time, the Orlando Sentinel reported. She also admitted taking two years off her age early on.
George Zimmerman is charged with the second-degree murder of Martin, 17, who was returning to a relative's home in a gated community in Sanford when he was shot in 2011. Martin was unarmed, but Zimmerman says he fired in self-defense after the teenager jumped him.
Jeantel told defense lawyer Don West she did not give Martin's full description of Zimmerman -- "a creepy-ass cracker" -- when she was first questioned about the phone call because she did not want to hurt the teenager's mother. Sybrina Fulton was present while a lawyer representing her family asked Jeantel about the conversation.
When she left the stand, Jeantel was warned she remains under subpoena.
The next witness, Jennifer Lauer, was on the phone with 911 at the time of the shooting. Lauer said she called the emergency line after hearing "grunting" and "wrestling" noises outside.
Jurors also heard a tape of her 911 call.
Jeantel in her direct testimony Wednesday described what she heard of the confrontation between Zimmerman and Martin.

Friday, September 13, 2013
Rumor has it KHLOE KARDASHIAN got tested for STDs after LAMAR ODOM admitted that he'd been unfaithful . . . and didn't always use protection. A source says Khloe has proof he cheated with at least FIVE other women because she had hired a private investigator. And it could cost him if they divorce, because there's an infidelity clause in their prenup.
NICOLE KIDMAN got knocked to the ground in New York City yesterday by a paparazzi scumbag on a bicycle. She was on her way into a hotel when the photographer came flying down the sidewalk at about 20 miles an hour, trying to get a shot of her. But he lost control of the bike, crashed into her, and they both went down. The guy got a ticket, probably for riding on the sidewalk.

9/12/13 Angelina Close to Death??

Thursday, September 12, 2013
Even MILEY CYRUS is tired of seeing herself with her tongue hanging out. During an interview on some French TV show, she said, quote, "It's getting a little old. I'm going to have to retire it!''
Are MILEY CYRUS and LIAM HEMSWORTH seeing other people? Sources say Miley is seeing producer (slash) rapper MIKE WILL.MADE.IT. And Liam might be enjoying some action from JANUARY JONES from "Mad Men". A source says, quote, "Liam and Miley haven't officially split, but it's over. It's just that neither wants to pull the trigger."
LIONEL RICHIE went through the ringer with his daughter NICOLE, so he feels BILLY RAY CYRUS' pain. He says, quote, "Dad to Dad, I've been Billy Ray. [Miley] is just going through a period in her life and we're actually going to grit our teeth and hold our breath. I did the same thing. It's one of those things where you have to say, 'Please God let it be over soon.' That's where she is in her space and this is her expression and that's what it's all about."
The "National Enquirer" says that LINDSEY VONN cheated on TIGER WOODS. So called "sources" say she made out with a guy backstage at a JAY Z / JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE concert on August 16th. He was in his mid-40s, and was somebody she already knew. Oh, and he was, quote, "gripping her rear end" during the makeout session.
The "National Enquirer" claims that ANGELINA JOLIE thinks she only has three to five years left to live, due to various health issues. A source says, quote, "Angelina is trying to live her life to the fullest . . . She's going to do everything she can to prolong her life but really believes she won't even reach her mid-forties." She's 38.
As far as we know, LINDSAY LOHAN is still sticking with this whole sobriety thing. Maybe she IS serious about it this time. In fact, the word is that she's spending $2,500 A DAY on a sober companion. She was spotted in New York City the other day with a guy who might just be that companion.
9/11/13 Ashton & Demi Together

Sources say that KRISTEN STEWART'S breakup with ROBERT PATTINSON is still causing her so much stress that she's LOSING HAIR. Friends are begging Rob to pay her a visit in Germany, where she's filming a movie. But he REFUSES, because as far as he's concerned, the relationship is over.
ASHTON KUTCHER and DEMI MOORE were spotted together at the airport in Burbank . . . but it was all about business. They had both attended a conference in San Jose on behalf of their charity . . . which works to combat things like sex trafficking and child pornography. And they ended up on the same flight back home. The paparazzi caught them getting off the plane together and talking as they walked through the terminal. Sources say Demi didn't want them to be seen together, but Ashton convinced her to walk with him.
MARIO LOPEZ is a dad again. His wife Courtney gave birth to a baby boy Monday night. He Tweeted, quote, "It's a boy!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please welcome Dominic Lopez to the world. Couldn't be happier . . . Courtney and baby are doing just fine."
Even when celebrities are contacted for jury duty, they're rarely picked. But TOM HANKS is doing his duty as we speak . . . sitting on the jury in the case of a man accused of domestic violence. The case started yesterday. TMZ says he listened intently and took a lot of notes. He was also friendly with the other jurors, and interacted with them during breaks.
The paparazzi caught LAMAR ODOM leaving a sushi place the other night. He said he's doing okay, he doesn't have a drug problem, he doesn't need professional help and he hopes to play ball this coming season.

MILEY CYRUS released her "Wrecking Ball" video yesterday. It features her riding a wrecking ball NAKED, French-kissing a sledgehammer and wearing a tight, white wifebeater and no bra. You know, the usual.
After MILEY CYRUS twerked at the "VMAs", she got more attention from Americans on the Internet than ANY news about our possible military intervention in Syria. How much more attention? Try 12 TIMES MORE. There were more than twice as many stories about Syria . . . but Miley stories got 12 times more reads.
Miley Cyrus stopped by a coffee shop yesterday in Amsterdam. It's no secret that coffee shops in the city let patrons smoke marijuana. Miley showed up with a group of friends and at ten in the morning and ended up staying for SEVEN hours.
SHARON OSBOURNE admitted on "The Talk" yesterday that she had a "fling" with JAY LENO when she was 25. That was 35 years ago, when Jay was around 28. This was a few years before Jay married his wife Mavis. Sharon said she can't remember if the sex was good, but Jay was a good kisser.
KRISTEN STEWART raised $500,000 for the Hurricane Sandy relief effort by hanging out with a Middle Eastern prince . . . for 15 MINUTES. Movie mogul HARVEY WEINSTEIN says it all happened when the unidentified prince approached organizers of last year's "12-12-12" benefit concert and offered cash for Kristen's time. Kristen got his offer up to half a million bucks, and once it was paid in advance, she, quote, "sat with the guy for 15 minutes."

When you're so old you have to ride a scooter at an amusement park, how do you make yourself look LESS old and feeble? By making your much-younger wife ride one, too. Then it looks less like a necessity and more like two lovers sharing an interest in . . . well . . . SCOOTING, I guess. 87-year-old HUGH HEFNER and 27-year-old CRYSTAL HARRIS scooted their way through Disneyland on Friday.
In a recent interview, SIMON COWELL said, quote, "I'm going to leave my money to somebody. A charity, probably . . . kids and dogs. I don't believe in passing on from one generation to another." And on "Ellen" tomorrow, he says, quote, "I'm happier than I've ever been."
JACK OSBOURNE'S wife Lisa suffered a miscarriage. She was in her second trimester. She announced the news on her blog Friday. She said, quote, "Having a late term miscarriage is by far the hardest thing either of us have ever had to go through." As far as we know, Jack is still doing "Dancing With the Stars" . . . which kicks off a week from tonight.
17-year-old KENDALL JENNER filmed herself with her phone while she was driving . . . then posted the video online. Kendall was holding the camera in front of her, so at least she was looking in the right general direction. But still, she spent too much time looking at the camera, and NOT THE ROAD.
MEL GIBSON got upset at a DUI checkpoint in Malibu Friday morning because he didn't have his license on him so they kept him a little longer. He reportedly yelled, quote, "Why are you harassing me?" When they asked him why he was getting upset, he added, quote, "I have had problems with you [Malibu] deputies in the past." They ended up letting him go with a warning.
Miley Cyrus's crude dancing at the MTV Video Music Awards has cost her the cover of Vogue magazine. Miley was photographed for the December issue, because the editor-in-chief Anna Wintour considered Miley a new fashion icon. But she changed her mind after Miley's MTV twerking performance.

Homage to 'Middlemarch' celebrates reading
Forced to take just one novel for company to that proverbial desert island, I'd instantly choose George Eliot's "Middlemarch" (1871-'72), which I've been rereading every several years since my first encounter in college.
D.H. Lawrence praised Eliot — pen name for Mary Ann Evans — as the novelist who "started putting all the action inside," developing the sort of interior monologues we're more apt to associate with Modernists than mid-Victorians. »Read Full Article(1)
Cable, pay-per-view problems leave viewers fighting mad
NEW YORK (AP) - For some boxing fans, the big fight Saturday night turned out to be between them and their cable companies.
Strong pay-per-view demand for the Floyd Mayweather-Manny Pacquiao fight in Las Vegas caused problems for cable and satellite systems, especially when people tried to order at the last second, which delayed the start of the fight. It's another sting to the reputation of an industry that's already beset with criticism over poor service and competition from streaming video providers. »Read Full Article
Watch The Civil Wars' Joy Williams' debut solo video
When The Civil Wars quickly rose to fame in the early part of this decade, few could have guessed just how telling the country folk duo's name would be.
With some of the most beautiful vocal harmonies heard in recent years and an impressive four Grammy Awards won in just three years, it was hard for fans to cope with the reality that Joy Williams and John Paul White just wouldn't be able to continue working together when their permanent disbanding was announced last year. (The separation, though, wasn't a complete surprise as the band had been on an unofficial hiatus since 2012.) »Read Full Blog Post

Woman dies after crashing into SUV; car caught fireJanuary 29,2013
JAMAICA — Authorities say a car skidded across a snow-covered southern Vermont road and crashed into a large SUV before catching on fire, killing a woman.
State police say the collision happened Monday afternoon in the town of Jamaica.
A preliminary investigation shows that a car was traveling southbound on Route 30 when the female driver lost control and the vehicle skidded across the road. It crashed into a northbound SUV driven by 48-year-old Gavin Scotti, of Greenwich, Conn.
Authorities say the car caught on fire shortly after the crash, and the driver was pronounced dead at the scene. Her name is being withheld until family can be notified.
Scotti and his 14-year-old passenger were taken to a hospital to be treated for minor injuries.

How to Clean a Chenille Throw
Soft and warm, chenille is the perfect fabric for luxurious throws. Chenille yarn is made from short pieces of fiber twisted around a yarn core. The fiber then stands away from the yarn, which gives chenille that soft texture. If you have a chenille throw at home, you may be wondering how to clean it. Owners of chenille throws can clean them gently in a washing machine or carefully by hand. Check out the following steps to help you learn how to clean a chenille throw.

Why should I join AED?
When you apply to a medical school or other health-related professional school, admissions committees look for several things in your application. Most important are: excellent scholarship, admission exam scores (MCAT), extracurricular involvement, health care experience, and letters of recommendation. Just going to class and making excellent grades is not enough. You must be involved with activities other than academics that are designed to broaden your application portfolio. You can find out how to do this by joining AED. If you are serious about a health care profession, then you need to be involved with a total program of preparation. AED membership looks good on your application by itself, but as an active member, you benefit from one of AED's primary goals-to help inform and assist you in the whole pre-health student experience.
Membership requirements
Membership in AED is offered to pre-health students recognized to have superior scholastic achievement.
To be eligible for membership, you must have:
- a GPA of at least 3.2 on all college course work
- a GPA of at least 3.2 in science and math courses (BIO, CHE, PHY, MAT)
- completed at least 3 semesters of full-time course work at an accredited college or university, including at least 1 semester at Delta State.
- The minimum of 3 semesters must have been completed at the time of application. That is, you
cannot be accepted for membership while still enrolled in the 3rd semester.
How to apply for membership
AED initiates new members each Spring. Watch for notices around the Caylor-Walters building that tell you when to put in your application. The deadline for applying is usually around the 1st of April. You can pick up an application from the Biological and Physical Sciences Division office or download one here: AED application (PDF).
Health Professions FAQ
AED has an ongoing project with the intention of providing important information to new students interested in the health professions. We are assembling a list of frequently asked questions (FAQ) related to any aspect of pre-health professions programs. That FAQ will be posted on this web site as it evolves. If you have a question about admission to medical, dental, or any other health profession school; about program requirements; about what courses to take; about how to apply for professional school; about how difficult it is to get accepted; or about ANY aspect of the pre-professional program experience, please submit to us.
Email your question to Dr. Tiftickjian at email@example.com. You can also submit questions on paper to Dr. Tiftickjian or to any AED officer or to Ms. Knight in the Divison office, Walters 180.
AED initiates new members for 2014-2015 academic year
At its annual initiation ceremony on April 24, 2014, AED welcomed 18 new members into the society for the 2014-2015 school year. These students have attained the high quality of scholarship required for membership. Welcome new members! We look forward to a productive new AED year beginning in August

Next AED meeting
AED is on break for the summer. See you again in August. Watch here and by email for announcement for the first meeting of the fall semester, sometime in August or September
All pre-health students are always invited to AED meetings. You don't have to be member to attend and participate in AED events and projects.

Intellectual matter and anti-matter
WIllie, that phrase is pure brilliance and so appropriate for that meeting!
10 November, 2009
Until Then
I hope your sickness didn't follow you to Vancouver and you were able to end this leg of the tour on a somewhat healthy note.
I want to take this opportunity to thank you for all of your unbelievably well-written, witty, funny and insightful entries. I never missed an entry and always looked forward to reading them. Your perspective of the tour is so fascinating and you tell it in a way which makes you feel you're right there along side of you.
I attended the Rose Bowl show and, no doubt, it didn't disappoint. I feel the same way about LA shows in general. The crowds do tend to be "too cool" and hold back a lot which can ultimately bring the vibe down, however, that was not the case in Pasadena. It was a pretty amazing feeling being a part of an audience that left their egos at the door and got involved in what is the U2 experience.
Your anecdote about Buzz Aldrin and Paris Hilton was hilarious!!! Only in LA would such opposite worlds collide.
Thanks again for taking the time to entertain us die-hards. I look forward to reading from you again come the second leg...until then.

Hi Willie,
Thanks for the posts.......Have you ever tried using Airborne ? It works very well and gives the body's immune system a nice boost for those on the go. Full of Vitamins and minerals and boy the zesty orange flavor sure does taste great. Available everywhere here in the states...(Trader Joe's)

On the edge of the known universe
Must engender some serious form of travel sickness. Bet that's what it was, but thank you for taking us there, Willie. Pure inspiration.

Dennis cut his coding teeth by teaching himself BASIC on a Texas Instruments TI-99/4A computer in the early 80's. His earliest memory of debugging a program was when he found that his mother had typed the letter O instead of the digit 0 in a hexadecimal string that defined the graphics of a program she copied from the listing in a magazine.
After discovering Delphi 1.0 during college, he went to work on a fax broadcast system and other telephony projects.
In the late 90's he worked with a few record labels to put software on their music CD's. This included Windows screen savers of album art work and a music player that scrolled the lyrics of each song across the screen -- all written in Delphi.
After that, he spent about 5 years doing web development in PHP (even working with a PHP MVC Framework) before discovering ASP.NET and C#.
He remained somewhat proud of the fact that he had never worked with Visual Basic until starting a job in 2007 where it was the company's language of choice for developing Microsoft Office customizations for the legal industry. Even though he got lost any time he tried to look at VB6 code, with the advent of LINQ to XML and XML Literals in VB9, he was happy to be a VB.NET developer.
Upon returning to full time web development, he was pleased to discover that with jQuery and other libraries like Underscore and Knockout, working with JavaScript sure isn't what it used to be.
His current job is primarily working with C# and some T-SQL for server side systems, but his passion is moving towards functional programming. He's experimenting with F# and learning Erlang. He recently started the Dallas Functional Programmers user group. (dallasfp.com)
