Morton aims to keep Bucs cruising in second half
Anderson sets out to even series for Rockies in Pittsburgh
After defeating Colorado on Friday night to open the second half, the Pirates will look to maintain their momentum Saturday with Charlie Morton on the mound.
Despite a pedestrian 5-9 first-half record, Morton has been solid in 2014, with a 3.32 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 100 strikeouts in 119 1/3 innings. In his last start, Morton imploded after facing just one more than the minimum in five innings against the Reds. He gave up five runs, all in the sixth.
"Pitches got flat, elevated," he said afterward. "From the get-go, I couldn't locate that inning."
Morton was one of several current Bucs on board for last season's playoff push, a factor that manager Clint Hurdle hopes will help the team in the second half.
"I think [the experience] has paid off already. There were a number of different times in the first half that we had to deal and dance with adversity. We're not overwhelmed by it," Hurdle said. "We know what we need to do. We need to trust the next man up, we need to do what we do best, individually for the greater good of the group. But there's not panic. They all have the mindset, 'We got this,' as long as they stay in the proper lane."
Morton will face off against Rockies lefty Brett Anderson, who will be making his second start after a stint on the disabled list with a fractured left index finger.
In his first start back on July 13 against Minnesota, Anderson allowed six runs over five innings, five of which came in the first inning. He said he hopes that pitching on the road may help him get back in his groove.
"Pitching in Coors Field is different, even from pitching in Colorado Springs," Anderson said after the start. "You're facing big league hitters, trying to execute, making adjustments on the fly. My stuff was terrible, but I did a pretty good job of doing that after the first inning. I'll put the first one behind me and go on to the next. I'll make my adjustments here and get better."
With the Rockies scuffling late in the second half, Anderson is looking to become a fixture in a rotation that has had little consistency.
"No one puts more pressure on himself than I do," Anderson said. "I want to be another guy in the rotation that can give us a chance to win every time out."
Rockies: Chatwood to have second Tommy John surgery
On two occasions, rehab went well for Rockies right-hander Tyler Chatwood right up until a hitter stepped into the batter's box against him. But when the intensity increased, the command went away. It left him and the club little choice but to schedule season-ending Tommy John surgery next week.
According to Rockies head athletic trainer Keith Dugger, pain isn't the issue as much as the lack of command, which led to the conclusion that Chatwood's ulnar collateral ligament is compromised. This is his second UCL; the first was replaced when he was a 16-year-old.
Chatwood, 24, was placed on the disabled list on April 30 with a right flexor tendon strain. But that was simply the latest injury in the elbow area. Last year he had troublesome inflammation, and after the season he had bone chips removed. This year, after the flexor tendon strain, the Rockies three times did plasma-rich protein injections. None of that made the elbow strong enough to withstand intense pitching.
"When you start seeing these multiple diagnoses of different injuries in the elbow, you always think of the ligament," Dugger said. "He didn't, per se, tear this ligament, but it's deficient.
"He never had a problem at all with his throwing program, never had a problem throwing bullpens. It was every time he got to hitters, he had no command, no strength and that's where we are today."
Rockies orthopedic surgeon Dr. Thomas J. Noonan, noted orthopedic surgeon Dr. James Andrews, Rockies rehab coordinator Scott Murayama, Dugger and Chatwood all decided upon the surgery. He is expected to be out of action for more than a calendar year.
Pirates: Cole awaits evaluation after bullpen session
Gerrit Cole threw a 30-pitch bullpen session Wednesday, and the Pirates are going to evaluate the right-hander before deciding on a rehab plan of action.
Cole left a July 4 start against the Phillies with tightness in his right lat and is on the disabled list for the second time this season. Manager Clint Hurdle has already said Cole will make a rehab start before rejoining the Major League rotation -- something he didn't do after developing right shoulder fatigue in June -- but doesn't yet have an exact timeframe of when that will happen.
"[Pitching coach Ray Searage] said it went very well," Hurdle said of Cole's bullpen session. "It was fastball, changeup. It was 30 pitches. So after he settles down [Friday], we'll revisit and plan the next step."
In his second season with the Pirates, Cole is 7-4 with a 3.78 ERA, 1.307 WHIP and 78 strikeouts in 14 starts (85 2/3 innings).
Worth noting
• The Rockies are 3-11 this season against the National League Central.
• Saturday will be the Pirates' second game in a stretch of four against left-handed pitchers. The Bucs have not faced four straight southpaws since 2010.
• This will be the second of six games between these two games in a 10-game stretch.

The US Navy has published photos of the aftermath of the F/A-18D crash. They clearly show the damage on the apartments that got hit, along with the foam-covered grounds. It's amazing how lucky the residents and the pilots were.
The Navy is meeting with the residents at the Virginia Beach apartment complex affected by the crash. It would start paying them money as early as today, starting with $2,300 for individual residents and more for families. These are only the initial payments, to take care of immediate expenses.
The residents would not be able to get into their homes until the area is completely clear of debris, but the Navy has told them to talk with on-site officials to collect their valuables.
In these photos you can see the actual extent of the damage. The F/A-18D Hornet—assigned to Strike Fighter Squadron 106—crashed at around 12:05pm on April 6, 2012. The air crew safely ejected and no victims were registered.

Glossary of Terms "Although it is generally preferable for a jury to be instructed on the statutory definition of a word where one exists, a trial court is not necessarily required to do so. . . . Specific words in a statute need not be defined if they are being used and understood in their ordinary meaning. . . . The definition of words in our standard dictionaries is taken as a matter of common knowledge which the jury is supposed to possess. . . . If this commonly understood meaning of the word, as found in a dictionary and presumably applied by the jury, is substantially the same as the statutory definition, then the failure of the trial court to give the statutory definition could not have had any effect on the jury deliberations." State v. Brown, 259 Conn. 799, 808-809 (2002) (trial court did not define "firearm"; the dictionary definition, which was presumed to have been used by the jury, and the statutory definition are essentially the same).

"In the absence of a statutory definition, words and phrases in a particular statute are to be construed according to their common usage. . . .

Is your enterprise ready to adapt and thrive?
Join us Oct. 24-25
The Open Group Conference, Taipei
Cloud Roadmap and Strategy ~ Best Practices of Enterprise Architecture ~ Trusted Technology: Developing Standards For a More Trusted Global Supply Chain ~ SOA: Architecture For Boundaryless Information Flow™
(registration for this conference will open shortly)
Join us at The Open Group Conference Taipei, where speakers will focus on:
- Enterprise Architecture and TOGAF®
- Business Transformation
- EA frameworks and tools
- Cloud Computing
- Trusted Technology and global supply chain best practices
- IT skills certification
Cloud Roadmap and Strategy
Cloud Computing solutions benefit many enterprises; but the challenge for consumers and providers of Cloud is how to manage growth and build successful transitions where it matters. Worldwide leaders in Cloud Computing will come together in Taipei to explore the factors for architecting and developing Cloud Computing solutions that meet both business and technical objectives. The Cloud track at The Open Group Conference, Taipei is designed to help attendees learn about and manage the critical decisions, capabilities and limitations of the technology.
Best Practices of Enterprise Architecture
Without an appropriate architecture, buildings will either fail to be fit for purpose or be vulnerable to nature. Likewise, without an appropriate Enterprise Architecture, the enterprise will either fail to thrive, or be vulnerable to external threats. The Open Group provides an active environment where attendees may learn about and develop global EA standards that deliver business value, ensuring they and their organizations benefit from the exposure to best practices and trends from around the world.
Trusted Technology – Developing open standards for a more trusted global supply chain
The Open Group Trusted Technology Forum (OTTF) is leading the development of a global supply chain integrity program and framework in order to provide buyers of IT products with a choice of accredited technology partners and vendors. The Open Group Trusted Technology Provider Framework (O-TTPF) will identify best practices for secure engineering and supply chain integrity that distinguish trusted technology providers, and foster a secure and sustainable global supply chain. Come and learn how your organizationcan benefit from participating in the creation and the adoption of the O-TTPF.
SOA: Architecture for Boundaryless Information Flow™
Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) is an architectural style that supports service-orientation — a way of thinking in terms of services, service-based development and the outcomes of services. The advent of Cloud Computing is reinforcing the value of SOA, as SOA facilitates the effective use of the Cloud. Speakers at The Open Group Conference, Taipei will discuss SOA standards and attendees will learn how to use The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF®) for SOA.
In Taipei, attendees will:
- Have the opportunity to participate in setting best practices and policy by collaborating in consortia initiatives
- Exchange ideas with other chief architects, information security experts and thought leaders
- Hear case studies from governments and global organizations that have crafted successful solutions and frameworks
- Learn about The Open Group certification and standards programs

12 Traditions Check List – Tradition Two
Tradition Two: For our group purpose there is but one ultimate authority—a loving God as He may express Himself in our group conscience. Our leaders are but trusted servants; they do not govern.
1. Do I criticize or do I trust and support my group officers, AA committees, and office workers? Newcomers? Old-timers?
2. Am I absolutely trustworthy, even in secret, with AA Twelfth Step jobs or other AA responsibility?
3. Do I look for credit in my AA jobs? Praise for my AA ideas?
4. Do I have to save face in group discussion, or can I yield in good spirit to the group conscience and work cheerfully along with it?
5. Although I have been sober a few years, am I still willing to serve my turn at AA chores?
6. In group discussions, do I sound off about matters on which I have no
experience and little knowledge?
7. Do I get upset -- when the group doesn't "do it my way"?
8. Do I get upset -- when the group doesn't understand that "I am right"?
9. Do I try to manipulate other members of the group -- or try to recruit them into
seeing things my way – or to do things my way?
10. Do I try to set myself up to be the Authority in the group?
The original 12 Traditions Checklist - from the A.A. Grapevine / Service Material is from the General Service Office: These questions were originally published in the AA Grapevine in conjunction with a series on the Twelve Traditions that began in November 1969 and ran through September 1971. While they were originally intended primarily for individual use, many AA groups have since used them as a basis for wider discussion. THE AA GRAPEVINE INC., PO BOX 1980, GRAND CENTRAL STATION, NEW YORK, NY 10163-1980

well "opensource lies" is such as derogatory label i suppose , perhaps "PR innovations" are a more acceptable label and we can get the thread name changed LOL....
on a totally separate subject before i forget....FYI
as regards getting some good and valid PR i noticed in the x264dev log's that the assembly devs are looking to add AMD AVX and perhaps improve AMD Encoding performance for the up and coming 2011

but with it only a around week away and their having to use the http://developer.amd.com/cpu/simnow/Pages/default.aspx it makes it hard to help and test AMD CPU improvements.
it might be in you're interest bridgman to pop over there #x264dev ASAP and find a way to offer them some remote shell access to your current AVX capable and other new CPU's so they can write the AVX assembly routines etc and test it on the real things... if your so inclined, OC Intel Francois Piednoel was also so inclined and in a position to organise this remote access but apparently that didn't happen , so you have an opportunity to on up him and get a good but of PR and praise in the codec_comparison etc.
That's a Big MAC, eh.
yeah, although your link shows a double/triple cycle 16x16 MAC so slower and not very good for you
in the case of the IRC log they are referring to DSP SIMD instructions, for instance ARM cortex has among others the Single-cycle 16x16 and 32x16 MAC implementations.
"Compilers targeting the [ARM] architecture can use these DSP extensions to improve code-generation for standard C and C++ software, or allow software developers to explicitly request use of these extension via intrinsics or inline assembly code.
The ARM DSP extensions enable increased DSP performance without the need for very high clock frequencies. This performance is achieved with almost no increase in power consumption on a typical implementation."
LOL read the log in sections sometime ,it goes back a long time so start at say
2010-10-30 22:15:27 < kierank> is x264 participating in google code-in?
its interesting for even non assembly reader's and you get good advice/idea's you can take to other projects etc, how you might improve audio codecs AAC etc being the latest insight for instance, not to mention why even professional GFX coders seem to have an aversion to writing working Gfx cuda/opencl etc x264 encoder patches once they ask on x264dev, all people who try are eaten by the cuda monster
and OC if you goggled vphsubbw for instance you would find
"AMD64 Architecture
Programmers Manual
Volume 4:
128-Bit and 256-Bit
Media Instructions"
AKA SIMD/AVX etc
and OC if you look above that section of the log i posted you would see they are writing AVX and mention AVX pathes etc...

Most people look at the Science Center as a fun and educational place to go on a Saturday afternoon...
What they might not realize is that we're also trusted partners to the school systems of the areas we serve. Our educational programs supplement traditional classroom learning with a valuable informal education and serve to build on the foundation of knowledge kids gain in school. Most importantly, they further the mission of increasing competency in S.T.E.M. (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) competency.
Our educational programs include:
- Field Trips
- Off-Site Programs
- School Break Camps
- Summer Camps & Academy
- Science Competitions
- Homeschool Programs
- Scout Programs
- And much more
These activities enhance classroom experience and provide students with a different way of looking at science, math and technology.

text: I'm in the process of purchasing my inner workings. I'm going to upload some pics of my Akula. I scatch built a deck on the upper hull. I know it's not exactly to scale. Two wires running length ways across the top would have been more acurate. But this gave it a better effect. Also my DIY dive planes. I'm going to completely rebuild it. I have a few better idea's. And although the dive planes work. I can see that they might jam. So I'm going to do start all over. Just need to get a drill press. Oh and I'm going to add the pic of the damage from soldering those rear dive planes. I've fixed it but don't have a pic up loaded to computer. next time I build a sub...i'm going to have two controll arms and two separated dive planes.

Try making these same tests, on a desktop environment other than Unity, to compare newer versions of drivers with the older.
In my case, when I switched from Unity 3D to XFCE, I got a significant performance improvement when running Skyrim, through Wine.
I can say that the game that was unplayble on Unity, become playable on XFCE, something comparable to the Windows performance.
My system is:
AMD Phenon X4 2.4GHz, 4GB DDR2 800MHz and Nvidia GeForce 8600 GT (Driver 280.13).

If using an older version of the driver, does it happen as well? If not, might be a driver problem. What about changing from fglrx to another 2D-only driver like "ati" or "vesa"?
I have strange problem with my ATI x1950 pro AGP card and Linux with Catalyst 8.1 Linux drivers.
After successfully install of this driver and reboot my PC I always get a short white horizontal lines over the gdm screen. When I want to login and when system start to entering into GNOME, the system hung. Cursor stopped, trying to go into console (CTRL+ALT+F1) is unsuccessful and only what I can is hard reset PC.
This happened always (with cooled and warmed PC).
Can be a hardware failure of graphic card, or something else?!
If using an older version of the driver, does it happen as well? If not, might be a driver problem. What about changing from fglrx to another 2D-only driver like "ati" or "vesa"?
I think that the same thing happened with 7.11 driver, but today I'll try 7.12 driver.
If you don't see corruption in the BIOS POST or the console while booting, chances are your card is OK (though the 3D part could be failing). Do you have 3D desktop compositing effects (compiz/Beryl) running in your session?
Yes, I'm using compiz, but gdm (where white stripes appeared) is not using 3D effects yet.
I found this on ATI's page:
For AGP ( Accelerated Graphics Port) cards ensure:
* Ensure that Fastwrite is disabled in BIOS, and in the SMARTGART section of ATI's Catalyst Control Center
* Try adjusting the AGP speed from (8X to 4X) (4X to 2X) or vise versa.
* Increase the AGP Aperture in the BIOS. We recommend a 128MB minimum.
* Disable any Shadowing settings in the BIOS.
* Disable any Cache Video BIOS settings in the BIOS.
So, I must check this settings in my BIOS, too.
On Unofficial ATI Wiki I found something about UMA and SIDEPORT modes, but where I can set this options??
Those "artifacts" may be caused by the Composite extension being enabled.
UMA and Sideport are only applicable to integrated chipset/graphics parts, ie not to your board. From what I remember AGP1x and AGP4x seem to be the most successful settings.

Cutter MTB Saddle Pack - Men's $0.00
Reviews & Community
What do you think of the
Cutter MTB Saddle Pack - Men's
? Share a...
Andrew Preece
The best deal on Backcountry.
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I just ordered these last week because I was in desparate need of a seat because my girlfriend drove into a parking garage with my bike on top. I saw the price and I was sold! The grips work very well and the seat is not the most comfortable seat in the world but you really cannot beat this deal.
Fritz Abelard
Great, Comfortable and Cheap
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I purchased this Cutter saddle/grip combo despite having some reservations about the quality. Picked them up from the warehouse by my house and thought at that price, it wouldn't hurt to give them a try. I got the black/red set which look pretty cool on my black/grey/red bike.
Both were pretty easy to install, and took about 10-15 mins. The saddle was a little rough on my first ride, but then I broke it in and rather enjoy it now! The grip is excellent, even if my hands get sweaty and don't feel like I have to use too much strength to hold on to.
Great Deal!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
As the previous poster says you just can't beat this deal for the price. Bought as a replacement for my (circa '98) GT Palomar. After purchasing my Kona Hei Hei DL I just wanted to make some inexpensive upgrades to the GT so I could have a 2nd bike. Replaced the cranket (<$30) and bought this seat/grips ($15) to replace the stock seat/grips after replacing a broken twist shifter ($12). Cut the fins off the grips so as not to interfere with the shifters. The results are incredible. I've used both on the road as well as MTB and this seat delivers.
Austin Smithberger
Can't beat it for the price...
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I decided to get this package for the same reason everyone else probably did... because it is the one of the cheapest options (around $15 when I ordered mine). I love how the seat looks, it has a low profile look to it that pairs well with my older model HardRock. As far as the comfort of the seat, it is a little unforgiving with a firmer build which tends to make me a little sore after a long ride. I was less interested in the grips when I ordered because I already had some, however when I put them on my bike just to see how they fit, they turned out to fit fine and they offered a nice feel that didn't bother my hands, so I left them on.
411g is that the weight of the saddle alone or with the grips?
A stellar deal worth repeating
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
At $80 this would be an okay package interesting mostly for the color coordination, but at $16 it's an absolute steal. The grips aren't very cushy but they hold on and hold up well. Saddle choice is very personal, but this one fits my bum better than the one that came on my $2500 cyclocross. I have two sets now and might get a third just for the saddle. Thumbs (& bums) up!
Ranger Rick
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Bought two these to replace saddles on a MTB and Cyclocross bike and replace grips on two MTB's. While the MTB grips are a bit annoying becuase of the fin on the inside end of the grip, they work well and the locking pieces work well. I eventually had to cut the fins off with an exacto knife! It might affect durability, but we'll see.
The saddles are comfortable for most rides, even forest road or shorter road rides if you need them for that. Just make sure you are wearing good shorts if you'll be on the seat for more than 30 miles. The sides don't rub on my legs and it looks good on the bike. All in all, it's an awesome deal if you can take the small tradeoffs!
Fritz Abelard
Awesome for the price...
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I bought this saddle/grip combo based on reviews here and others I've seen for my Trek 3900, and I've enjoyed it so far. I went on a ride for a few miles and not only was the seat really comfortable and sturdy, but the grips also allowed good handling on the road and stay dry. And for the price, you can't really go wrong.
This was my first purchase from Backcountry, but I'll definitely be coming back. Good prices and knowledgeable/helpful staff!
Vinny Mauro
Insane Value
At the currently sale price of $12 this is a no-brainer. I didn't even need grips so I haven't used those, but they feel great. A nice medium thickness and softness that should be pretty comfy for most hands. The saddle is what I was after. It's a bit longer than average which makes it look kind of funny, but it's a respectable weight (considering the dirt cheap price) and is actually super comfy. I generally ride 10-20 miles at a time on single track and haven't run into any comfort issues with this seat. Can't comment on longevity yet, but for the price if I get half a season out of it I'll be happy. Although it seems plenty burly to last as long as the average saddle. In short, if you're considering this and have any need for a saddle OR grips then get it! It's a crazy deal, and you or a friend are likely to need the other part of the package eventually if not right now.
Vinny Mauro
Well it looks like the price is up to $25, but I still vote these as a worthwhile investment! My buddy borrowed my bike for 5 minutes last week and instantly decided to buy one to replace his WTB saddle.
Vinny Mauro
Update: Used this saddle for a full season and am now entering my second season. Still happy with it, and looks like they're currently $16 with the grips too! There's probably nicer saddles out there... but for $16 what do you have to lose? I gave it a shot, and ended up calling off the search for a nicer saddle as I am completely happy with mine.

Yes. A coach cannot force a player to perform poorly. Al Harrington and David Lee played well under Antoni's crappy system, and so did Stoudemire last year. Melo averaged 26 points on over 45% shooting under coach Antoni last season, and it was his first year playing under the Antoni system.
Excuses are for the weak. Melo's making 20 million dollars a year. He has to learn how to pass the ball and not settle for 3 pointers. Melo was great at driving to the basket and making mid-range jumpers AS A KNICK last year. So what happened THIS YEAR?
My theory is that JELLO just got past his prime faster than most players. It happened to Elton Brand, Baron Davis, Steve Francis, Tracy McGrady, and now the Puerto Rican Tembleque.

While providing entertainment, the suspense and thrill of horror books may also impart a few sleepless nights and scary nightmares for some individuals, and thus aren't for everyone.

Horror books use different techniques to elicit an emotional, psychological or physical response within an individual causing a fearful reaction. These techniques include referencing fictitious, supernatural figures (vampires, phantoms, demons, etc.) or real situations and figures (serial killers, medical tragedies, etc.). The best horror books prey on people's fear of the unknown and common anxieties.
Which Horror Books do Readers Prefer?
The answer to this question is: it depends on the reader. Given that many people have differing opinions about their favorite type of horror book, the sub-genres of horror have continued to grow. Some are drawn to a grisly serial killer novel, a psychological thriller or even a medical thriller while many others prefer supernatural horror books filled with demons, ghosts, vampires, werewolves, zombies or any of the many other fantasy creatures. Whatever type of book you love, you are sure to find it in today's extensive selection of horror books.

Norman- Norman Regional Health System has been named one of the nation's Most Wired, Most Improved Health Systems for the second year in a row. Results for the 2010 Most Wired Survey and Benchmarking Study are in the July issue of Hospital & Health Networks magazine.
Only four hospitals in Oklahoma received the distinction. In the past year the Health System's Information Technology department has been very busy. In addition to electronically equipping a 400,000 square foot state-of-the-art specialty hospital, the IT department further enhanced Electronic Medical Records for both the hospital and physicians.
Other completed projects include:
"Quite frankly when you stop and reflect all that was accomplished in the last year by the department, it is astonishing," said John Meharg, Director of Information Technology Services. "This much work can only be accomplished with dedicated, highly motivated and team oriented staff. We are very fortunate to have employees that are willing to take on such challenges and put in the necessary time to ensure success."
The Obama administration incorporated mandatory technology upgrades into the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act and authorized billions of dollars to help hospitals and physicians go digital and penalties for those that do not.
"The federal government has created numerous financial incentives for hospitals and physicians to fully implement electronic medical record systems," said Greg Terrell, NRHS Vice President and Chief Operating Officer. "For Norman Regional Health System, these incentive payments could allow us to recoup up to $8.1 million of the approximate $20 million investment we have made in electronic medical record system development over the past several years."
This year, 1,280 hospitals completed the survey. The Most Wired Survey is conducted annually by Hospital and Health Networks magazine, the American Hospital Association, McKeeson Corporation and the College of Healthcare Information Management Executives.
The survey focuses on how the nation's hospitals use information technology for patient safety and quality, customer service, business process improvement, workforce management and public health and safety.
