Deviled eggs
The basic procedure is straightforward: Hard-boil eggs, using the method of your choice (more about that below). Once they're cool, split them in half, pop out the yolks, "devil" them by mashing or pureeing with a little mayonnaise, a bit of mustard and seasonings, then put the result back into the waiting egg whites, piping it in neatly from a pastry bag if you're finicky, or simply piling it in with a spoon if you're not. Garnish if desired, chill or don't, and serve.
INGREDIENTS: (Yields one dozen)
6 fresh eggs
1. First, hard-boil your eggs. Julia Child had a famously finicky procedure that involved simmering the eggs, shocking them in a bowl of ice, then reheating, all in an effort to make them easy to peel and to eliminate that purportedly unsightly green edge around the yolk. All that's necessary, really, is to avoid overcooking the eggs. Put them in a saucepan with plenty of water to cover. Bring it just to a boil, then cover the pan and turn off the heat. Let the eggs sit undisturbed in the hot water for 20 minutes, no more, then cool them under cold running water until they're cool enough to handle. Crack and peel immediately. (INGREDIENT NOTE: I've become a true believer in fresh free-range eggs, preferably locally produced. They can't be beat for color and flavor, and extra credit for freshness if your supplier openly dates the packages.)
2. Using a sharp knife, cut the eggs neatly in half lengthwise. Carefully lift out the hard yolks and put them in a bowl. Mash them with a fork if you like a coarse texture, or push them through a strainer with the back of a spoon if you prefer a silken-smooth puree.
3. Blend in the mayo, the mustard and the seasonings to your taste. Now's the time to think about those optional add-ins if you like them: A few snipped chives or scallions, a little bit of pickle relish, a few capers, a dash of soy sauce or Worcestershire or even something more exotic. My bride mentioned having once added a drop of red food coloring to turn the filling a pretty shade of pink, but that's a little too ladies-who-lunch for the likes of me.
4. Put the filling back into the whites, using a spoon or pastry bag as noted. A colorful sprinkle of paprika is a traditional garnish, or chopped parsley. You can go non-traditional with cilantro or thin-sliced basil or other fresh herb, or take it upscale with a tasty dab of caviar or salmon roe.
They'll be great for your Labor Day picnic, but do take care to keep them well-chilled in the fridge or in a picnic cooler filled with ice until they're ready to serve.

This site centers on a large, open-fronted chamber, or cavern, deeply undercutting the reef table close to shore. A small semicircular shelter or windbreak by the track marks the entry point.
Entry to the site is effected by basically throwing yourself off the reef edge into deep water at the top of the cavern. Frequent strong waves at the surface may make it advisable to don your fins in the water, rather than risk losing your balance in the surf. On exit, you will need to judge wave patterns and allow yourself to be carried onto the reeftop by the swell.
Once in the water, the cavern is directly below you. The undercut sections can be entered on either side of the sandhill. On the right, or south side, a very contoured shallow reef section, with many inlets and surf tubes, leads onto the sloping body of the main reef, while to the north, a deeply undercut extension of the cavern leads down the side of the sandhill to the northern continuation of the reef slope.
The reef sections are as interesting as the cave, with good cover of hard and soft corals, and a lively population of reef and schooling fishes. Divers should make a personal judgement as to whether the entry/exit is within their scope.

Intel Corporation 82573L Gigabit Ethernet Controller not recognized / in list of ethernet controllers
I would like to install 64studio on my x60s IBM laptop but its Intel Corporation 82573L Gigabit Ethernet Controller is not recognised / listed in the list of ethernet controllers.
What can I do?
Thanks, Dietrich

works even if so...
Answering to my own question...
I was not connected to the internet during the installation procedure as I normally connect to the internet via an USB modem ("emobile" modem, which is equal to Huawei E220, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huawei_E220 ). This caused the installation procedure to present me with the following screen:
No Ethernet card was detected, but a FireWire interface is present. It's possible, though unlikely, that with the right FireWire hardware connected to it, this could be your primary Ethernet interface.
Do you intend to use FireWire Ethernet? [yes] [no]
I choosed [no] and got a list of ethernet drivers to choose from. Searching the internet I found that the right choise In my case (IBM x60s laptop) seems to be
e1000: Intel (R) PRO/1000 Gigabit Ethernet.
But selecting this one I got the same screen again: No Ethernet card was detected[...]
Finally I choosed [yes] as answer to Do you intend to use FireWire Ethernet? and could install the system. I suppose that the option No ethernet card from the list of ethernet drivers would have had the same result.
After some trial and error I could use my USB modem and connect to the internet as I could before when using Debian.
Yesterday I had the opportunity to use an ADSL connection which also worked immediately without installing any new driver.
So the ethernet card detection mechanism seems to rely on a working internet connection and not on the hardware by itself - which I didn't know -. When not connected to the internet during the installation procedure the option No ethernet card (or mayby Do you intend to use FireWire Ethernet? -> [yes]) seems to be the right way to go...

Swami Kamalananda Bharati is the latest to have allegedly made a provocative speech
The famed concepts of communal harmony and peaceful coexistence in Hyderabad have further cracks developing with more stones being hurled in the form of hate speeches. The latest is a provocative speech by a Hindu religious leader Swami Kamalananda Bharati at a recent public rally in the city. Following complaint of religious sentiments being hurt by the speech and objectionable comments lodged by one Rahman, a criminal case has been registered by the Mir Chowk police against the little known Swami.
Two more complaints were made at Dabeerpura and Rein Bazar police stations and the police say that all the three have been handed over to a Special Investigation Team of Hyderabad Central Crime Station. Swami Kamalananda Bharati, who established Hindu Devalaya Parirakshana Samiti and works for the protection of temples and temple lands, had earlier undertaken a padayatra across the State for the purpose.
At a rally organised near Indira Park on Tuesday, he picked up points from MIM leader Akbaruddin Owaisi's speech and threw a challenge at him.
"If left unchecked by the government, the situation might spiral out of control and more and more religious elements can join the fray," says Mazher Hussain, Executive Director, Confederation of Voluntary Associations (COVA). "It's not the first time nor is it going to be the last. Elements seeking to provoke and polarise the society on communal lines are present on either side and in a way they complement each other," Mr. Hussain says.
T. Ramesh, secretary, Jana Vignana Vedika, decries the trend of resorting to provocative and controversial comments as a quick march to fame. Some suspect the Telangana issue to be a major reason behind the fresh round of hate speeches. "I strongly feel that it is a deliberate attempt at polarisation on communal lines due to the Telangana issue," says Padmaja Shaw, Professor, Department of Journalism, Osmania University.
The communal troubles of Hyderabad are described as part of five-year cycle and efforts by different political parties to consolidate gains in elections.

Al Kamen: Bush disses Gonzales?

Speaking of Gonzales, old-timers covering the White House often compare its vaunted secrecy to that of the Kremlin in Soviet days, when reporters would try to figure out who was in or who was gulag-bound by noting how far each official stood from the top guy on the podium at Moscow's annual May Day parade.
So President Bush's failure to acknowledge the presence of his attorney general at Sunday's White House Tee Ball game had reporters buzzing.
Bush, in pregame remarks, acknowledged the VIPs there: "I do want to thank John Warner, Senator John Warner, from the great state of Virginia, and his family, for joining us," Bush said. "Proud you're here, Senator. I see Alphonso Jackson and Dirk Kempthorne, of my Cabinet, who have joined us. I'm proud you all are here."
Gonzales, who was listed on the White House info sheet given to reporters, was sitting in button-down shirt and dark sunglasses just behind Jackson and Kempthorne.
Was Bush not "proud" he was there? The Kremlinologists wondered.

Peace Corps Online The Independent News Forum serving Returned Peace Corps Volunteers
Dodd issues call for National Service
Standing on the steps of the Nashua City Hall where JFK kicked off his campaign in 1960, Presidential Candidate Chris Dodd issued a call for National Service. "Like thousands of others, I heard President Kennedy's words and a short time later joined the Peace Corps." Dodd said his goal is to see 40 million people volunteering in some form or another by 2020. "We have an appetite for service. We like to be asked to roll up our sleeves and make a contribution," he said. "We haven't been asked in a long time."
Public diplomacy rests on sound public policy
When President Kennedy spoke of "a long twilight struggle," and challenged the country to "ask not," he signaled that the Cold War was the challenge and framework defining US foreign policy. The current challenge is not a struggle against a totalitarian foe. It is not a battle against an enemy called "Islamofascism." From these false assumptions flow false choices, including the false choice between law enforcement and war. Instead, law enforcement and military force both must be essential instruments, along with diplomacy, including public diplomacy. But public diplomacy rests on policy, and to begin with, the policy must be sound. Read more.
Ambassador revokes clearance for PC Director
A post made on PCOL from volunteers in Tanzania alleges that Ambassador Retzer has acted improperly in revoking the country clearance of Country Director Christine Djondo. A statement from Peace Corps' Press Office says that the Peace Corps strongly disagrees with the ambassador�s decision. On June 8 the White House announced that Retzer is being replaced as Ambassador. Latest: Senator Dodd has placed a hold on Mark Green's nomination to be Ambassador to Tanzania.

Suspect confesses in murder of PCV
Search parties in the Philippines discovered the body of Peace Corps Volunteer Julia Campbell near Barangay Batad, Banaue town on April 17. Director Tschetter expressed his sorrow at learning the news. �Julia was a proud member of the Peace Corps family, and she contributed greatly to the lives of Filipino citizens in Donsol, Sorsogon, where she served,� he said. Latest: Suspect Juan Duntugan admits to killing Campbell. Leave your thoughts and condolences .
Warren Wiggins: Architect of the Peace Corps
Warren Wiggins, who died at 84 on April 13, became one of the architects of the Peace Corps in 1961 when his paper, "A Towering Task," landed in the lap of Sargent Shriver, just as Shriver was trying to figure out how to turn the Peace Corps into a working federal department. Shriver was electrified by the treatise, which urged the agency to act boldly. Read Mr. Wiggins' obituary and biography, take an opportunity to read the original document that shaped the Peace Corps' mission, and read John Coyne's special issue commemorating "A Towering Task."

Chris Dodd's Vision for the Peace Corps
Senator Chris Dodd (RPCV Dominican Republic) spoke at the ceremony for this year's Shriver Award and elaborated on issues he raised at Ron Tschetter's hearings. Dodd plans to introduce legislation that may include: setting aside a portion of Peace Corps' budget as seed money for demonstration projects and third goal activities (after adjusting the annual budget upward to accommodate the added expense), more volunteer input into Peace Corps operations, removing medical, healthcare and tax impediments that discourage older volunteers, providing more transparency in the medical screening and appeals process, a more comprehensive health safety net for recently-returned volunteers, and authorizing volunteers to accept, under certain circumstances, private donations to support their development projects. He plans to circulate draft legislation for review to members of the Peace Corps community and welcomes RPCV comments.
He served with honor
One year ago, Staff Sgt. Robert J. Paul (RPCV Kenya) carried on an ongoing dialog on this website on the military and the peace corps and his role as a member of a Civil Affairs Team in Iraq and Afghanistan. We have just received a report that Sargeant Paul has been killed by a car bomb in Kabul. Words cannot express our feeling of loss for this tremendous injury to the entire RPCV community. Most of us didn't know him personally but we knew him from his words. Our thoughts go out to his family and friends. He was one of ours and he served with honor.

v. North
Carolina Industrial Commission
I.C. File No. 368058
Appeal by defendants from Opinions and Awards filed 18 September 2002 and 10 March 2003 by the North Carolina Industrial Commission. Heard in the Court of Appeals 17 November 2003.
W. Rutherford for plaintiff-appellee.
Goudelock & Courie, by Robert B. Starnes, for defendants.
(Bobby Roberts) suffered a compensable injury by accident on 28 July 1993 when
he was struck by a pipe while working for Century Contractors, Incorporated,
causing trauma to his neck and back. Defendants admitted liability, and
plaintiff sought treatment for his injuries with Dr. James Markworth of
Southeastern Orthopaedic Clinic. Dr. Markworth diagnosed plaintiff as having
some narrowing of the cervical spinal canal and some degeneration of multiple
levels of the cervical disks, with bulging of some of the discs. Dr. Markworth
performed an anterior cervical discectomy infusion at C3-4, C4-5, C5-6, and
C6-7 with bone grafts being placed at each location.
this surgery, Dr. Markworth reviewed plaintiff's x-rays and determined that
while the films showed a line at the inferior margins of the C3-4 graft, C5-6
graft, and maybe the C6-7 graft, these areas appeared to be remolding nicely.
Dr. Markworth subsequently indicated that plaintiff was at maximum medical
improvement and stopped treating plaintiff. A physician's assistant at
Southeastern Orthopaedic Clinic continued to treat plaintiff. Because he was
still experiencing pain, plaintiff issued a request for a second medical
opinion on 3 April 1998.
2 June 1998, plaintiff saw Dr. Allen Friedman for a second medical opinion. Dr.
Friedman noted that there was a question of lucency below the graft at C5-6 and
that x-rays needed to be repeated to be sure that the fusion was stable. Dr.
Friedman indicated his concern to plaintiff that current x-rays needed to be
obtained to be certain as to whether the fusion was solid.
parties attended a mediation on 13 May 1998. The negotiation resulted in a
settlement amount of $125,000 and payment of related medical expenses.
Following his visit to Dr. Friedman, plaintiff executed the settlement
agreement that had been negotiated on 13 May 1998. The settlement agreement
contained a waiver of any right to make further claims in regard to plaintiff's
injury. The settlement agreement was approved by the North Carolina Industrial
Commission on 25 June 1998.
subsequently filed a claim for Workers' Compensation, seeking compensation and
medical benefits for the same injuries which were addressed in the settlement
agreement. Plaintiff alleged that the Commission should set aside the
settlement agreement pursuant to N.C.G.S. §97-17 due to mutual mistake of fact.
In support of this allegation, plaintiff offered Dr. Markworth's deposition
testimony that his office's diagnosis of maximum medical improvement was a
Full Commission found that the parties had mistakenly relied on Dr. Markworth's
diagnosis of maximum medical improvement and that this fact was material to the
settlement agreement. The Full Commission set aside the agreement and awarded
plaintiff compensation and medical benefits in an Opinion and Award filed on 18
September 2002. Defendants gave Notice of Appeal, which was received by the
Industrial Commission on 8 October 2002. While the appeal was pending, the Full
Commission filed another Opinion and Award on 10 March 2003, which also set
aside the settlement agreement due to mutual mistake.
appeal from both Opinions and Awards, contending (1) the first Opinion and
Award must be reversed because the Full Commission erred in setting aside the
parties' mediated settlement agreement on the basis of mutual mistake of fact,
and (2) the second Opinion and Award must be vacated because the Full
Commission lacked jurisdiction to issue it. We affirm the 18 September 2002
Opinion and Award, and vacate the 10 March 2003 Opinion and Award.
We first address defendants' argument that the Commission committed reversible error when it voided the parties' settlement agreement due to mutual mistake of fact.
On appeal from an opinion and award of the North Carolina Industrial Commission, the standard of review is "limited to reviewing whether any competent evidence supports the Commission's findings of fact and whether the findings of fact support the Commission's conclusions of law." Deese v. Champion Int'l Corp., 352 N.C. 109, 116, 530 S.E.2d 549, 553 (2000). The Industrial Commission's findings of fact "are conclusive on appeal if supported by competent evidence even though there is evidence to support a contrary finding." Murray v. Associated Insurers, Inc., 341 N.C. 712, 714, 462 S.E.2d 490, 491 (1995). "[T]he full Commission is the sole judge of the weight and credibility of the evidence. . . ." Deese, 352 N.C. at 116, 530 S.E.2d at 553. "[T]his Court is not at liberty to reweigh the evidence and to set aside the findings . . . simply because other . . . conclusions might have been reached." Baker v. City of Sanford, 120 N.C. App. 783, 787, 463 S.E.2d 559, 562 (1995) (citation and quotation marks omitted). This Court reviews the Commission's conclusions of law de novo. Griggs v. E. Omni Constructors, __ N.C. App. __, __, 581 S.E.2d 138, 141 (2003).
The North Carolina Workers' Compensation Act permits parties to enter into settlement agreements, subject to approval by the Commission, "so long as the amount of compensation and the time and manner of payment are in accordance with the provisions of [the Act]." N.C.G.S. §97-17(a) (2003).
No party to any agreement for compensation approved by the Commission shall deny the truth of the matters contained in the settlement agreement, unless the party is able to show to the satisfaction of the Commission that there has been error due to fraud, misrepresentation, undue influence or mutual mistake, in which event the Commission may set aside the agreement.
Id. (emphasis added). "Compromise settlement agreements, including mediated settlement agreements [in Workers' Compensation cases], are governed by general principles of contract law." Lemly v. Colvard Oil Co., 157 N.C. App. 99, 103, 577 S.E.2d 712, 715 (2003) (citation and internal quotation marks omitted).
"It is a well-settled principle of contract law that a valid contract exists only where there has been a meeting of the minds as to all essential terms of the agreement." Northington v. Michelotti, 121 N.C. App. 180, 184, 464 S.E.2d 711, 714 (1995). Therefore, where a mistake is common to both parties and concerns a material past or presently existing fact, such that there is no meeting of the minds, a contract may be avoided. Howell v. Waters, 82 N.C. App. 481, 486, 347 S.E.2d 65, 69 (1986).
To afford relief, the mistake must be of a certain nature. The fact about which the parties are mistaken must be "an existing or past fact." Id. (citation omitted). The mistaken fact must also be material, which has been described to mean the following:
[I]t must be as to a fact which enters into and forms the basis of the contract, or in other words it must be of the essence of the agreement, the sine qua non, or, as is sometimes said, the efficient cause of the agreement, and must be such that it animates and controls the conduct of the parties.
Id. (quoting MacKay v. McIntosh, 270 N.C. 69, 73-74, 153 S.E.2d 800, 804 (1967)). See also Caudill v. Chatham Mfg. Co., 258 N.C. 99, 128 S.E.2d 128 (1962) (discussing, but not applying, the doctrine of mutual mistake of fact in a Workers' Compensation case one year before the General Assembly amended the Act to include mutual mistake as a ground for avoiding a settlement agreement).
Additionally, relief from a contract
due to mistake of fact will be had only where both parties to an
agreement are mistaken. Thompson-Arthur Paving Co. v. Lincoln
Battleground Assocs., Ltd., 95 N.C. App. 270, 278, 382 S.E.2d
817, 822 (1989). "Thus, as a general rule relief will be denied where the party
against whom it is sought was ignorant that the other party was acting under a
mistake and the former's conduct in no way contributed thereto." Id.
(citation and quotation marks omitted). Likewise, a party who assumed the risk
of a mistaken fact cannot avoid a contract. Id.
A party bears the risk of a mistake when
(a) the risk is allocated to him by agreement of the parties, or
(b) he is aware, at the time the contract is made that he has only limited knowledge with respect to the facts to which the mistake relates but treats his limited knowledge as sufficient, or
(c) the risk is allocated to him by the court on the ground that it is reasonable in the circumstances to do so.
Restatement (Second) Contracts, §154 (1979) (quoted and applied in Howell, 82 N.C. App. at 488, 347 S.E.2d at 70).
What a party believes the facts and circumstances to be and whether those beliefs induce a party to act are questions concerning that party's mental state. Such questions about the operation of a party's mind have been held to be questions of fact. See Farmers Bank v. Michael T. Brown Distribs., Inc., 307 N.C. 342, 348, 298 S.E.2d 357, 360 (1983). Likewise, "[w]hether [a party] has assumed the risk of mistake is a question of fact . . .." Thompson-Arthur Paving Co., 95 N.C. App. at 278, 382 S.E.2d at 822.
In the instant case, the Commission made the following findings of fact:
10. The x-rays taken in April 1998, six months after Dr. Markworth or Southern Orthopaedic Clinic had last treated plaintiff, indicated Dr. Markworth's diagnosis of maximum medical improvement . . . was a mistake. Dr. Markworth testified, and the Full Commission finds as fact, that advising plaintiff that he was at maximum medical improvement at that time was a mistake.
. . .
13. The Full Commission finds as fact, based on reasonable inference drawn from the evidence before it, that the finding of maximum medical improvement and the impairment rating given by Dr. Markworth were material to the settlement of this claim and that both parties relied on this information in entering into settlement negotiations.
14. Plaintiff testified, and the Full Commission finds as fact, that being told he was at maximum medical improvement was material to his decision to settle his case and that he would not have settled his case had he known there was a non-union of his cervical spine and that he was not at maximum medical improvement.
15. On April 3, 1998, plaintiff had requested a second opinion from Alan Friedman, M.D. During mediation, the parties agreed to plaintiff getting the second opinion.
16. Dr. Friedman saw plaintiff on June 2, 1998. This appointment was eight days prior to the signing of the settlement agreement. Plaintiff did not provide Dr. Friedman with his past medical records. Dr. Friedman reviewed x-rays from October but was not certain as to the date of the x-rays. Dr. Friedman indicated x-rays needed to be repeated and [sic] to be sure the fusion was stable. Dr. Friedman indicated his concern to plaintiff that current x-rays needed to be obtained to be sure the fusion was solid or not; however, the carrier would not authorize the taking of new x-rays. Dr. Friedman testified, and the Full Commission finds as fact, that plaintiff was not at maximum medical improvement with regard to his cervical spine when he examined plaintiff on June 2, 1998.
. . . .
20. The greater weight of the evidence indicates there was a mutual mistake with regard to plaintiff's medical condition at the time of the signing of the settlement agreement.
Thus, the Commission made explicit findings that the parties believed that plaintiff had reached maximum medical improvement and, further, that they materially relied upon this fact in reaching a settlement. Defendants' essential argument on appeal is that because plaintiff either knew that there was a possibility that his fusion was not solid or was negligent in not declining to sign the settlement agreement, "mutual mistake is a legal impossibility" in this case. As the facts also support a contrary conclusion, we do not agree.
In making its findings, the Commission necessarily had to consider the issue of whether plaintiff assumed the risk that he may not have reached MMI and/or that he may have had an unsatisfactory fusion. Plaintiff's primary physician advised him that he had reached maximum medical improvement, and another physician expressed possible doubt about that conclusion. The doubt expressed by the second physician was never confirmed or investigated due to circumstances which may not necessarily be attributed to the plaintiff. The plaintiff testified that he based his decision to sign the settlement agreement on Dr. Markworth's diagnosis and that he would not have settled his case if Dr. Friedman had told him that there was no fusion in the back of his neck. Thus, there is competent record evidence to support the Commission's findings that the parties were mistaken as to whether plaintiff had reached maximum medical improvement and that this mistaken fact was material. These findings are, therefore, binding on appeal. Murray, 341 N.C. at 714, 462 S.E.2d at 491.
We note that when a party asserts assumption of risk as a defense to recision of a compromise settlement on the grounds of mutual mistake under G.S. §97-17(a), it is the better practice for the Industrial Commission to make a specific finding detailing the reason(s) the Commission rejects or accepts this contention.
This assignment of error is overruled. We affirm the Commission's Opinion and Award filed 18 September 2002.
We next address defendants' contention that the Commission's Opinion and Award issued 10 March 2003 must be vacated because the Commission was without authority to issue it.
An appeal to this Court divests the Industrial Commission of jurisdiction to issue opinions and awards. N.C.G.S. §1-294 (2003); Andrews v. Fulcher Tire Sales & Serv., 120 N.C. App. 602, 606-07, 463 S.E.2d 425, 428 (1995). Though an appeal is not perfected until docketed in this Court, perfection relates back to the time that Notice of Appeal is given. Woodard v. North Carolina Local Governmental Employees' Retirement Sys., 110 N.C. App. 83, 87, 428 S.E.2d 849, 851 (1993).
In the instant case, the Commission filed an Opinion and Award on 18 September 2002. Defendants gave Notice of Appeal of that Opinion and Award, which was received by the Commission on 8 October 2002. At this point, the Commission was divested of jurisdiction in the matter. Nevertheless, on 10 March 2003, the Commission filed another Opinion and Award even though the appeal of the first order was still pending. Therefore, the second Opinion and Award was issued without jurisdiction, and is hereby vacated.
The Opinion and Award filed 18 September 2002 is affirmed; the Opinion and Award filed 10 March 2003 is vacated.
Chief Judge EAGLES concurred prior to 31 January 2004.
Chief Judge MARTIN concurs.

Yesterday someone mentioned that Osvaldo had writing on his shirt and perhaps wanted to dedicate the goal to his daughter who had been in the hospital. Alas if only that was the case. "The beautiful girl is asking for some rock & roll." Nice to know you got your mind not on Roma and our miserable situation but on trying to bang your new girlfriend. Congrats, I hope you got laid when you got home and cleaned the egg off your car. If you were still up for it.
LOL at the story about sick daughter.,.I always defended Osvaldo, but when I saw him putting the ball for PK, I immediately thought WTF!!! Just because of that gesture, I'd feel comfortable letting him go in the summer if the proper offer arrives...
Well I think we all know Osvaldo is gone in 6 months. The only thing that kept him here was Zeman, so all we can do is hope he scores some more goals so that his value goes up. There will probably be someone willing to buy him for at least 15m. Then that's 15m extra to fix some holes in the team.
But guys what you think about to exchange deal Osvaldo-Dzeko ? Osvaldo to City and Dzeko Roma ? Or Luis Suarez to Roma and Osvaldo to Liverpool?
Didn't we get him for 18m? I vote we try to send him to some Russian military winter ass-team for 20m. I have no sympathy for this devil
Osvaldo is too selfish footballer.He´s only stronger side is set pieces.He miss 70% of our great goal scoring changes because he is slow he is not able to pass asw.
Luis Suarez technique,speed and work ethique is tottaly different, he is goal scoring machine, absolute beast.
Maybe now we can understand, why we bought Destro in the first place. It has been one too many incidents with this narcissist. Hitting a teenage kid for not passing him the ball, multiple idiotic red cards, rowing against Zeman, being accused of laziness in training, flying to London to see Rolling Stones instead of supporting the team etc. Oh, there is one other guy who fits the description. Supposedly the leaders of locker room they are. I say it is time to move on with some players. Evidence is right in front of our eyes.
Why not? American Owners friendship (Boston Sox), nothing is impossible.Dzeko is not that star , he was in Wolfsburg.
Dzeko or luis Surez for Osvaldo lol? Osvaldo is nowhere in the class of the other 2. Dzeko would be hands down the best striker in serie a if he joins.I would say he easily does 32 - 33 goals in italy.
The problem is Juve would probably put him in line because they have serious management, a serious coach, and a serious dressing room. His bad behavior would never be tolerated there. And he wouldn't be first to leave a club to to Juve and fall in line. If he's to be sold in the summer, then I maintain my normal position of "not to an Italian club."
DO Any of you think Osvaldo represents a jump in quality for Juventus? I think they aim much much better then Osvaldo.
The irony is that he was cautioned and had he scored and removed the shit he would have gotten a yellow and missed the next game. This genius "The gravity of the error is that he didn't even ask Francesco. He took the ball, put it on the spot and took the penalty." - Carlo Zampa
The genius also got into an argument with a fan who complimented him on the penalty at the airport in Genoa.

Martha Johnson, administrator of the General Services Administration, resigned Monday, and two top officials of the agency that manages 9,600 federal buildings reportedly were fired ahead of a critical inspector general's report. A newly released video then sparked more outrage.
The resigation of GSA Administrator Martha Johnson on Monday mushroomed into a bigger story April 6 when a video surfaced of a GSA staffer singing playfully about the fun of running up excessive expenses at the conference that brought Johnson down, two years into her job. Two others near the top of the agency were fired on the same day she left, according to a Washington Post report, which said the cause was a stinging report issued later the same day by GSA's inspector general, Brian D. Miller. It concerns an Oct. 25-29, 2010, GSA Western Regions Conference attended by about 300 people -- some were employees of GSA contractors -- at a cost of $822,751.
The video was released by Miller's office to U.S. Rep. Darrell Issa, who chairs the House Government Oversight Committee.
The two who reportedly were fired are Robert Peck, chief of GSA's Public Buildings Service, and Stephen Leeds, whose title was senior counselor to the administrator.
The report says GSA's spending on conference planning alone was $100,405.37, which the report calls "excessive, wasteful, and in some cases impermissible." GSA employees made two "scouting trips," five off-site planning meetings, and a "dry run" before the conference took place at the M Resort Spa Casino near Las Vegas, and six of those pre-conference outings took place at the M Resort itself, the report states.
An appendix included in the report is Johnson's response to its findings. She accepts them, outlines new policies she has ordered to prevent such overspending from recurring, and states that she has ordered that no future Public Buildings Service Western Regions Conferences take place.
Catered food and beverages during the event cost $146,527.05. Miscellaneous expenses included mementos for attendees, purchases of clothing for GSA employees, and tuxedo rentals, it states.
"GSA's approach to the conference indicates that minimizing expenses was not a goal," it says dryly. GSA created an internal website with information about the conference, including photos and videos of events that took place; the site was taken down March 23, 2012, Miller's report states.

From what I can gather, the biodegradable cups and utensils bit actually does hold some ground. However.
today's progressive movement is actually socially authoritarian.
That's pretty subjective and a hard thing to really prove or disprove.
Unlike conservative authoritarians, however, they are not concerned with banning "immoral" things like sex, drugs and rock and roll. They instead seek dominion over issues such as food, the environment and education.
This literally makes no sense. Isn't the general idea to make food safer, protect the environment, and make schools actually teach correctly?
For example, progressive activists have championed the anti-vaccine movement, confusing parents and causing a public health disaster.
Even if it is true that champions of the anti-vaccine movement were "progressive" (depending on how they even define it) they're sharpshooting by saying just because some of the proponents are progressive, progressives are like this.
They have campaigned against animal research even when it remains necessary, in some cases committing violence against scientists. Instead of embracing technological progress, such as genetically modified crops, progressives have spread fear and misinformation
Nothing cited, no credible evidence
They have waged war against academics who question their ideology, and they are opposed to sensible reforms in science education.
I think they mean that they're trying to teach what science has actually found, there is nothing about ideologies, conservatives are the ones that often are pushing ideologies in. Generally it is desired to just teach what has been scientifically shown.
Basically all I see is a partisan bias using sharptshooting

I have friends pretty much everywhere on the political spectrum, but the only anti-vaccine crazies (and there are several) are all hard-right types. I am surprised to hear this described as a "progressive" thing.

[–]Provokateur 4 points5 points6 points 2 years ago (1 child)
Seconded. The byline seems to capture the actual point pretty well: The republican party sucks on science, sometimes democrats do as well.
But when the articles attempts to demonize democrats almost every claim is sensationalized.

It boils down to "these anti-science movements are left-wing, therefore the left-wing is anti-science", which is a logical fallacy.

One place where liberals really miss the boat with science is with race. We see repeated test results where Asians score at the top, but African Americans score at the bottom. What does science tell you about that?

I haven't seen anything on here about the .270 Winchester yet. I believe it is quite common in South Afrca. What projectile works on the larger PG ? Blue Wildebeest etc.. No doubt the Barnes and A-Frame bullets will work as would the other Mono-metals. Any experience ?
No direct experience, but I saw a lady on Tracks take a zebra with a .270. Prior to living in Arizona I lived in Idaho. I knew a couple there that had been hunting elk for 50 plus years. Between the husband and wife they probably killed more elk than most people will ever see, mostly with a .270. I don't think I'd try to bring down an Eland with one, but I wouldn't doubt it's been done. Outside of those big guys, I don't think I'd hesitate to use a .270 if that's what I shot accurately.
Code 4, amongst many of the smaller PG, i have also hunted a lot of Oryx and kudu here in Namibia sucessfully with my .270 loaded with 150 gr PMP Pro Am soft nose ammunition. Personally i will not go broadside for Eland with the .270 - however with premium bullets it debatable - i guess should you be a crack shot with a .270 up to 250 yds i can see that other hunters will take Eland as well with this cal. Personally i considder cal 300 the minimum for going after the daddy of African antelope.
The .270 Win is indeed very popular in SA. My perception is that resident hunters who own a .270 as their only rifle, use mostly 150gr soft points to hunt plains game on the plains and in the bushveld, and they take anything with it, including Eland if nothing more suitable is available. Resident hunters who have more rifles than only a .270, predominently use their .270's with 130gr soft points for longer range shooting at small to medium game only. As I said, that is my perception. I, for instance, use my .270 as a light long range rifle only and I use only 130 gr bullets with it. I use it typically as a springbuck rifle (although it is much more versatile). I further use my .30-06 only with 180 grainers, my .300 Win Mag only with 200 grainers and my .375 only with 300 grainers, all for appropriate purposes for that combination. But, resident hunters normally travel by car and do not have to cross borders, a distinct advantage. But I would say that if one excludes giraffe (and maybe eland but definitely all pachyderms), and one uses very good premium bullets when required, the .270 Win is not far behind the .30-06 as far as versatility is concerned.
Hi guys, I cannot agree more with regards to versatily. With a good bullet and good shot placement the .270 performs very well and it is not far behind the 30-06. If it is your rifle and you are familiar with it, it will do well. Have seen good hunters with unfamiliar rifles not having success. I took a very good size bluewildebeest at 220m and 150gr soft point bullet, no problem. I also know guys who have taken eland, but again shot placement and good amunition.
You might try searching for for threads on the .270. There was a thread that went on for several months that talked about the .270 for PG. A lot of posts w/ bullet info. Bruce
I started a thread about the .270 for pg. At certain times the thread is more of an arguement than a discussion, but that is what makes it fun I guess.

Re: Speed/Depth/Wind conundrum
I think it's worth thinking through your long term plans before buying, rather than adding to the system constantly. I'm building out a new electronics package for my boat, and one of my goals was to have fewer display units, not more. The plotter (I'm using a Raymarine e7d) already has a nice big display and I didn't want to duplicate that into more instruments. I don't want a huge dashboard covered with lights and numbers blocking my view.
If you buy two or three display units now, then add a chart plotter later, you are going to end up with a lot of electronics to put into a small cockpit.
I'm building my own NMEA display unit that will hang inside my dodger and have built my own pitch and roll and wind sensors (that is using a Davis windspeed/direction sensor, I built the bits to convert that to NMEA). Building your own isn't the most logical option (and likely isn't an option at all for most sailor), but it's been a fun project for me. My display and the e7d will be the only things visible in the cockpit.
I sometimes get annoyed at the lack of real integration in boat electronics. I'm going to add a wheelpilot this spring and it's annoying that the Raymarine wheel pilots require a P70 (or similar) user interface head even when there is a fancy touchscreen GPS sitting right there that could provide all of the UI.
As for what's useful I find it useful to have speed over ground, speed through water, and depth. If you are on a lake then speed through water isn't so useful. On my old boat (mostly sailed on a lake) I got good enough electronics using a handheld GPS on a fixed mount and a fish finder for depth. The total outlay was a couple hundred dollars, I could read it from anywhere in the cockpit, and no holes were drilled in the boat.

From Artisan to Partisan
Title: | From Artisan to Partisan |
What Would it Mean to be an Artisan of Finance? | |
Author: | Thompson, Grahame |
Abstract: | This paper confronts the question of what a revitalized financial sector might look like if this were to be reconfigured so as to reproduce first an artisanal like persona for the financial analyst and craft like organizational structure for financial businesses, and secondly if this were to be re-territorialized so that it acted like a partisan rather than, as at present, like a disembedded footloose structure of 'global finance'. Initially the analysis is pitched at a rather abstract and theoretical level – pulling together artisans, nomads and partisans and tracing their intellectual lineages. But the chapter ends with three very concrete illustrations of actual financial relations in practice that meet some of the criteria for being both artisanal and partisanal. |

I am a stressed out, overwhelmed, broke stay at home mom.
I am so bad about getting things done, I never finish what I start. I have more laundry than I thought was humanly possible, and have been having feelings of "it'll just get messed up as fast as I clean it anyways, so why bother?"
What do you do when you start feeling this way to motivate yourself? How do you deal with the husband that leaves his socks in a pile by his desk where he takes them off after work? How do you keep a 5 year old from making a HUGE mess every time he does anything? How do you get through 20 loads of laundry faster than you dirty it, and, and, and...?
Just frustrated, by myself as much as anything else. So, What should I do?
Celeste from Florida
By Celeste
Here are the recent answer to this question.
By weinerdog41 [31]04/05/2014
I'm a Grandmother who raised two kids and know how hard it is. Look around your home and you will probably see that your family has too much stuff. Stuff makes/means work. I visited my Daughter one time when she was sick and I could not believe how a family of 4 could have so much laundry. I've sure they were wearing clothes and using towels once. I was there to help her but what she didn't know was I picked up ever peace of clothing, looked for stains and dirt and did a good smell.
A lot of the stuff was folded and put away never hitting the washing machine. Neither she or her husband never new the difference. I use a bath towel more than once and if my clothes don't look dirty or smell I hang them up and wear them again. If your husband refuses to pick up his socks put the things back in the dresser where he found them and I bet he'll never know the difference. I bath every day and what I just mentioned does not mean I'm dirty, neither will you. Your utility bills will decrease like you won't believe. You have a hard job so make it easy on yourself or you'll become sick and bitter.
By Celeste [4]02/22/2010
Wow, I hadn't seen this in a long time, so many good answers!
A lot has changed in the past 3 years, the 5 year old is now 8 and getting better at keeping up with his mess- somewhat. The biggest change is that I am now the income provider and my husband is the stay at home parent. It's complicated, but it's working.
I actually recommend that couples try it for at least a short amount of time- switch places. It helps you to appreciate each other more. My husband now knows how challenging it can be to try to keep up with a household and I now appreciate how stressful it can be to have all the responsibility of trying to bring in enough income.
I've got to give him so much credit- he really does try to take care of all of the household stuff and I appreciate so much not having to come home and keep working after work. I still have things that I help out with, I'm just not having to be in the daily grind of it all, lol.
All in all, I think it's been good for us, I actually miss being a stay at home mom though, lol!
By Laura Brubaker [2]02/21/2009
Why so much laundry? Do you do a little each day? Do you hang towels up after use? If so, a towel can be used for a week if it can air out. Do jeans get worn more than once? Twenty loads sounds like someone either lets it go for weeks or some in the home throw barely used items in the laundry.
When my 13 yr old had more laundry than anyone else, he was warned to put only truly dirty clothes into the laundry. When he didn't alter his behavior, he ended up doing his own laundry for the rest of his days until he marries.
By Sarah (Guest Post)04/12/2008
I recommend hooking up with other moms and organizing babysitting exchanges or co-ops. A good place to meet them may be at your local public library- they often have free storytimes, and are a great way to meet other stay at home parents. As for making time for yourself, tell your husband or partner that they are going to watch the kids a certain amount of time each week. Be specific. Then, when it's time for you to have your break, get out of the house, or get them out of the house! It'll do you a world of good. :)
By Gale (Guest Post)01/08/2007
I am a stay at home mom. I'm stressed to the max. My husband is out having dinner with my dad. While i am stuck yet again with cranky fighting kids. My dad takes me out to lunch once a week but I am always accompanied by a child. I haven't had a vacation since the third harry potter movie came out. My 4 year old is determined to send me to the nutty bin. I vacuum 3 times a day. I have been couped up 2 weeks with sick kids with only 2 hrs break on one day. Church on Sunday. I can't take a bath or anything with out being interrupted at least once. I really need some timeoff but can't afford a nanny. I have no one to watch the kids.
By Liz Orr [8]10/18/2006
I can relate. It wasn't too long ago I made a trip to the laundrymat with four kids and a husband in tow. It made all the difference in the world. Once I got caught up on the laundry it was such a relief. Everyone now has thier own laundry basket and carries thier own laundry up and down the stairs. Also if something arrives to the laundry inside out it is washed inside out and folded inside out. Each person will turn them rightside out at some time or another. I know money is always a factor, but it will be worth it! I also am going through clothes and getting rid of what we are not using, because some how it always ends up in the dirty laundry even if its never been on a body.
I also suffer from starting many projects and finishing few. I get bored easilly, so it is hard to stay on task. I don't know,,,maybe I'm ADD. lol What ever it is I have learned to stop fighting it. What I have found(after 43 years) is that I will start four or five projects. Then, like you I start to feel overwelhmed. All I have to do is finish one of those projects and I start to feel better. Trust me it takes a lot of self talk through it. KEEP YOUR HEAD UP! This too shall pass.

Hi, Celeste,
I could have written your message myself. I am an in-a-slump, at-home mommy of 4. I've been in a rut, too. I like my surroundings to be neat, because it helps me feel better. The truth is, though, I use tasks like laundry and picking up the house almost as a way to avoid doing some of the "higher-level" stuff, like sending out a resume or trying to get back into freelance writing.
The thing is, in this society, if you don't bring in an income, your time seems to others to be worthless. I run into this all the time, the "You're at home, you're not doing anything" attitude. I even get it from other at-home mommies! Who wouldn't feel demoralized by this? My time is certainly valuable TO ME, but I am clearly in the minority on that vote. It is depressing, and all I can do is not permit others to monopolize my time with their own expectations and tasks. I certainly don't mind helping people, but I don't permit them to think my time is completely flexible, completely expendible (by them).
I have no wisdom on this, truthfully, other than to tell you that you are definitely NOT alone, and to suggest that your overwhelmed feelings are completely valid, and based on your true experiences.
There is a funny story about a man who comes home from work, sees trash all over the yard, the dog running free, the kids eating candy in their pjs, dishes piled in the sink, broken toys all over the place, you get the idea. He finds his wife in bed, reading a book and eating chocolates. When he asks her, "What's going on around here?" she answers, "Remember yesterday, when you asked me what I do all day? Well, today I didn't do it."
Hang in there, fellow Floridian.

I am definitely getting ready to go through all this laundry, and start tossing stuff out that I don't love. I mean, how many generic polo shirts do I really need? I came to the conclusion that I have been holding on to excess laundry as a buffer, stuff to wear when everything else needs to be washed, but now EVERYTHING needs to be washed, and maybe if I got rid of that "buffer" then it would be easier to keep up with the laundry in the first place, lol...
I recently did this with my sons room. We went in with a big trash barrel and started by first throwing away everything that was broken or had missing parts. Then we looked at what we had left and sorted it by what kind of toy it was (we settled on lego's, action figures, costume/dress up, cars, army men, tools, and misc for stuff that didn't really go anywhere) I got a container for each thing (the big plastic buckets that cat litter come in, tidycats I think) and put a picture on each one of what it had inside, and made an extra shelf in the closet. SO now all his toys fit into the closet, his books go on his shelf and his school/learning stuff goes into his desk. Its worked out rather well.
Unfortunately he likes to drag it all out into the rest of the house, and that gets annoying, and he'll throw every scrap of clothing out of his dresser looking for that one particular shirt or pair of pants. Makes me crazy, lol...
Well, it didn't happen over night, so it'll take some doing, but I'l get there...
By jojo (Guest Post)10/14/2006
Hi Celeste, I'm sure many people can relate to your situation. I have given up trying to get my husband to pick-up after himself, my son's not far behind but his mess is usually limited to his bedroom. My husband drops clothing everywhere, the bathroom, the living room, the family room, the bedroom floor...well, you get the picture.
We each have our own laundry hamper, one each for hubby and myself in our bedroom, one for my son in his bedroom and one in the bathroom for used towels. I work approx. 4 full days per week so often spend my days off sorting my laundry, grocery shopping etc...unfortunately I'm not 'superwoman' so housekeeping standards have slipped a little...I like to keep things tidy but it's not always spotless, I try to delegate. My son vacuums, hubby does d.i.y. projects when he has the time! Ahem...
I sort my laundry by darks, lights, towels, mids...you get the idea again....and I hang everything up straight from the clothes line to reduce ironing (there are a few exceptions here but this has greatly reduced my ironing pile). I have even resorted in the past to not picking up after my husband and unless he'd put his dirty laundry in his hamper...I would not sort it for washing. He'd end up washing his own clothes instead :) Have you also thought about maybe having a bit of a clearout so you have less laundry??? One small step at a time though...even one drawer or cupboard at a time....less stuff means less work!!!
I have also learned to bulk buy when grocery shopping to save time, not to mention money. It all takes time and patience.
Other posters are also quite right when they say you need to find some time for yourself, whether it's sitting listening to music with a coffee or reading a book or watching a movie...time just for you fitted into each day.
I'm not sure in what way your son creates a mess, with toys? Perhaps you could teach him to put one thing away before he takes something new out...or reward him for tidying up after himself....either by spending time reading him a story or taking him to the park or something he enjoys...making him an ice-cream cone...anything that seems like a treat/reward. I hope you get on top of things :)
By Celeste [4]10/13/2006
Paula, I like the idea of differnt kind of laundry days, that might work. I think I would start with towels and linnenes, cause they are so quick and easy to fold...
By Paula [14]10/13/2006
Celeste, I can relate to your issue about your husband's socks....it took me five years to get my husband to use the clothes hamper instead of the floor, another five years to get him to close the lid of the hamper. Even after all that time he would still leave the pant legs hanging out of the hamper when he closed the lid, either just to irritate me or to let me know that I just wasn't going to fully "win" the battle. You definately need to talk to your husband now about how you feel and ask him for his help. Maybe at bedtime hand him a laundry basket and ask him to get his socks before going to bed. I have heard of people using different colored laundry baskets for different members of the family to help organize them, I don't know if that would help you or not. For your five year old, how about those big plastic storage tubs for their "stuff" and before bedtime set an egg timer and have a race to clean up! It might be time to clean out some of the five year old's things, sometimes there is just too many toys, they don't play with them all anyway, and they just become clutter. Christmas is coming and maybe you could donate the toys to the needy. One thing that you have to do is something special for yourself, no matter how simple it may be. I like a cup of tea in the afternoon. I just sit down, no tv, no radio, just me and my cup of tea (okay and a cookie or two). It is my time, just for me. You need something just for you. What is special to you? Paint your toenails, read a chapter of an inspirational book, write a letter or call a friend, or go to the Thriftyfun website!! Stay at home moms never treat themselves to anything special and they don't get out enough to have "adult time". Anyway, you just need a little something in the day to recharge your battery, then you will be ready to take on the mountain of never-ending-laundry. Do you have enough to set days for certain types of laundry, like Mondays for jeans, Tuesdays for towels, Wednesday for whites, ect.? I personally think that many people, myself included, could hang up their clothes and wear them another day eliminating unnecessary laundry, resulting in a savings of laundry detergent and electricity. I hope you can come up with a solution to your situation, don't give up, and start delegating a little more responsibility to your family.

Thanks for the response so far. I'm just in a bad overwhelmed place right now, if ya can tell, lol...
Sounds like a good plan James, I'll have to try to get a routine going that I can live with. Hard part is just getting caught upo from all the slacking I have been doing...
Laundromat for a day would be nice. lol. Get it all done, then just maintain it at home...
By Haley [4]10/13/2006
Leave your husbands socks where he dumps them. He'll soon learn after he has no clean socks. My partner used to leave his in the bathroom all the time so that's what I did to him. It worked. As for the 5 year old, you've got me stumped there!! Maybe encourage him to tidy up after himself. Once he realises what a pain it is to tidy up all the time he might not be so messy.
By James (Guest Post)10/12/2006
I'm a "stay-at-home" husband my self. I also have some of the problems you have Celeste. My wife expects everything to be done by the time she gets home from work, just so she can make it messy again. It's like a never ending cycle. We have no kids yet, but we do have one on the way. She wanted a puppy soooo bad when we had gotten married, but by the looks of it, I'm the main care-taker of the smelly dog now. To me the dog is just a wast of money. Yeah, Yeah...I know about all the responsibilities that a spouse must do, but give me a break! She likes to leave her close in-side-out when she takes them off after work. I got tired of fixing them, so after a while I started to wash them that way. I even folded them that way too. She complained about it a week later. I told her if she didn't like it, then she should wash and fold her own clothes, needless to say she started to flip the shirts right-side-out after she took them off. There was another problem too, she had a habit of leaving her drawers open. I got tired of bumping into them and closing them for her. So I started to ask her nicely to please close your drawer and if she didn't close it within an hour I threw out all of the close that were in it. And on top of that, if she didn't clean up the mess within a week, I would throw away her clothes in the trash. Yeah there was arguing, but it payed off. It took about a month tho. She now closes everything. I'm not too sure about your laundry problem. 20 loads huh? If I ever had 20 loads I would set a date on a weekend for my wife and I to go to the laundry-mat/washateria and wash ALL DAY. I like to do laundry once every 2-3 days or once the basket gets full. I think when she has the baby things are gonna get worse. For your husbands sock problem, you should just leave his socks there until he complains that there are no clean socks to wear. Then tell that if he wants something to be cleaned it MUST go into the hamper. And for the motivation....hobbies are a must for me, I love to work on my car, play racing games on-line, watch movies, and most of all, playing on the turn-tables 1200's! I would tell my self as I'm waking up(7:30am)....start with one load in the washer 27min to wash, within that 27min I must complete the bedroom and walk the dog. Put load into dryer 1hr time. I will do the kitchen in 1hr. wash dishes, sweep, mop, etc. during this time I'll feed the dog as well. Drying done time to put another load to wash, while that's going 27min I fold clothes. Then put load into dryer 1hr. Time to clean windows and start on lunch for the wife. Drying done, time to fold. Meet with wife...back at home. Walk the dog / feed too and DONE!!!(12:30pm) TIME TO PLAY!!!....until she gets home (4:30pm). Then she starts on dinner, but doesn't clean a thing!!!!! Eat, shower, sleep, and starts all over. WOW i can't believe how much i just rambled on.....I hope this sorta helps you a little bit. Take care Celeste and hang in there.

Miami Marlins' gamble in sixth inning pays off
Marlins coach Mike Redmond's move to pinch-hit for Henderson Alvarez resulted in what turned out to be the winning run Friday.
Coming off a road trip where runs where hard to come by and his bullpen was nearly lights out, Marlins manager Mike Redmond decided to gamble a little in the sixth inning Friday night.
With the bases loaded and one out in a scoreless tie, he lifted pitcher Henderson Alvarez, who has thrown 13 consecutive scoreless innings since the All-Star Break, for pinch-hitter Placido Polanco.
It paid off.
Polanco plated a run on a slow roller down the third-base line and the bullpen picked up where Henderson left off as the Marlins beat the high-flying Pirates 2-0 in front of an announced crowd of 18,718 at Marlins Park.
"It's always a tough decision when someone was pitching as well as Alvarez was, but this is the best pitching staff in the National League we're going against, and I wasn't sure if we were going to get another chance," Redmond said. "We went for it. It worked out."
Once an awful 7-20 through the first two months of the season at home, the Marlins (39-62) won for the 15th time in their past 22 games at home.
Slugger Giancarlo Stanton padded the Marlins' lead with a towering solo home run in the seventh inning off Pirates starter Jeff Locke (9-3). The 397-foot blast was Stanton's 12th home run of the season and ninth at home.
"Kind of got the sense they were thinking 'He hasn't seen anything all day let's see what he can do,' " Stanton said of crushing the 3-1 pitch. "I just wanted to take advantage of that."
The Pirates, who have the second-best record in baseball behind the St. Louis Cardinals, produced five hits in their first shutout loss since June 13.
Pittsburgh (60-41) couldn't figure out Alvarez, who gave up two hits, one walk and struck out five on 72 pitches (51 strikes) before being pulled for Polanco.
"I'm happy about the win, thankful for my teammates who picked me up," said Alvarez who hit 98 mph on the radar gun and picked up his first win since being acquired from Toronto last winter.
"I felt good today. I was throwing hard in the bullpen. I was a little surprised to hit 98. I haven't thrown that hard yet."
Although the Marlins couldn't add to their lead — Adeiny Hechavarria lined out to first and Christian Yelich grounded out to second to end threat in the sixth, the bullpen did its job protecting the lead.
A.J. Ramos struck out the side in the seventh and after Mike Dunn gave up a broken-bat double down the left-field line to former Marlin Gaby Sanchez, Chad Qualls came in and retired Jordy Mercer on a groundout to second before striking out pinch-hitter Michael McKenry swinging. Qualls has not allowed a run in his past 10 outings — a span of 10 2/3 innings.
Steve Cishek, who picked up three saves in Colorado this week, notched No. 21 of the season by handling the ninth. He struck out the first two batters before Andrew McCutchen and Pedro Alvarez singled to put runners on the corners. Cishek ended the drama though when he got pinch-hitter Jose Tabata to ground out to second.
"I felt comfortable with our bullpen if we could score that we could lock down that seventh, eighth and ninth," Redmond said. "That's a good offense over there. But we executed our pitches, played good defense and won."
The stellar start by Alvarez continued a theme for the Marlins' rotation. Since June16, Miami's starters have allowed three runs or less in 30 of 33 games and two-or-fewer runs in 23 games.
Since getting tagged for four earned runs in his second start of the season July 9 against the Braves, Alvarez has now given up two combined earned runs over his past 19 2/3 innings.
After being shutout three times in Milwaukee and held to 13 runs on their seven-game road trip to open the second half, the Marlins had a run cut down at the plate in the second inning when catcher Jeff Mathis couldn't beat the throw home on Alvarez's double to the wall in left.
After a one-out walk by Donovan Solano to start the sixth inning, rookie center fielder Jake Marisnick ended a 0-for-14 start at the plate with a bouncer into center. Jeff Mathis then drew his second walk of the game — Locke threw six in all — to load the bases. That set the stage for Polanco.
But it was Marisnick's hit that got the most attention afterward.
"I think he's going to be able to sleep tonight. Me too," Redmond joked. "Everybody wants to go out there — especially young guys — and show what they can do right away. Nobody wants to be the guy three or four days without a hit. That pressure keeps mounting and mounting. I know it was a big relief. And it was a big hit at the time. He's got that ball now. He's official. I'm happy for him. He's a great kid."

Political hack by day. Freelance writing superhero by night. Self-proclaimed authority on homebrewing, bacon and turning oxygen into carbon dioxide.
In early September, Notre Dame linebacker and Heisman Trophy candidate Manti Te'o—just days after learning of the death of his girlfriend—led the Fighting Irish to an emotional upset of then-#10 Michigan State. However, in one of the most bizarre twists we've seen in college football, it now appears that the whole story about a dying girlfriend was a hoax.
As we come down the homestretch of this college football season, there are lots of great games on tap in the next week. Many of the nation's top players—including Heisman-winner Johnny Manziel—will be on display for the last time this year.
We will have separate previews of all the BCS games posted soon, but in the meantime, here are the highlights of all the other remaining college bowl games.
The first week of bowl games is in the books and, while we all know these games are just appetizers for the big games to come, the BCS games will be hard-pressed to match some of the excitement we've already seen. Three of the four games this week were decided in the fourth quarter and featured a lot of stellar individual efforts.
Here are all the highlights from the first games of the 2012 bowl season.
What says "happy holidays" more than ignoring your family so you can bask in the warm glow of a football game between two teams you don't know anything about and haven't seen play since, well, last bowl season? Here all the highlights from this week's slate of college football bowl games.

My wife gives the best blow jobs. I'd love to share her with another man. Both our cocks pounding her mouth. He blows his load first, then I cum in her beautiful, wet mouth. Then, she kisses me and we swap the cum back and forth. I spit it into her mouth and she spits it back nto mine. Then she shares the snowball with our friend.
He leans over and deposits the load into my mouth. After a few rounds, it's too much and we swallow it down. With cum on all our chins, we lay my wife down and share eating her delicious pussy. I fuck her slowly as he licks her clit.
My wife loves two cocks, and I love sharing her mouth with another guy's hard dick.
Oh yes, ball will touch.

Shine light through the large holes of, say, a kitchen colander and you get just a portion of it coming out the other side. Shine it through arrays of holes smaller than the light's wavelength, however, and almost all of it can be transmitted. This is thanks to the way photons interact with surface electrons, producing collective excitations known as "surface plasmon polaritons". Previously, enhanced transmission was thought only to occur in periodic holes in metal. But now Valy Vardeny and colleagues from the University of Utah have shown that the effect can be even more pronounced in aperiodic, "quasicrystal" arrays.
At a glance, quasicrystals look as though their pattern ought to repeat, but at closer inspection one finds that there are always subtle irregularities that preclude any of the translational symmetry that is found in normal crystals. Quasicrystals do, however, have rotational symmetry, meaning that at a certain number of intermediate points in a complete revolution their pattern will be the same.
Vardeny's team made different arrays of holes in 75-µm-thick stainless steel foil varying from quasicrystal to totally random patterns. They then shone light through the foils and measured the spectra of light emitted from the other side.
They found that the foils with random holes attenuated the light output fairly evenly over the spectra. The quasicrystal arrays of holes, on the other hand, let sharp peaks of the light's frequency pass through, which were directly related to the spacing between the holes in the structure. In addition, the precise transmission could be tuned by simply rotating the foil. For patterns that were neither well-defined enough to be termed quasicrystals, nor totally random – what Vardeny calls "quasicrystal approximates" – the transmission peaks were less prominent.
Vardeny told Physics Web that the foils could be developed as tuneable filters for use in communications. Terahertz radiation, which lies sandwiched between the microwave and infrared regions of the electromagnetic spectrum, is currently fairly underexploited, but could enable large amounts of data to be transmitted at high speeds. Vardeny's team is now looking at other aperiodic structures for use in the terahertz region.

text: BRUCE SMITH Associated Press CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) - Four days of events next month will mark the 150th anniversary of the mission of the Confederate submarine H.L. Hunley, the first sub in history to sink an enemy warship. The hand-cranked sub and its crew of eight sank the Union blockade ship Housatonic off Charleston in February 1864. The Hunley also sank. The Hunley wreck was located in 1995, raised in 2000 and brought to a lab in North Charleston where it is being conserved. Anniversary events begin on Valentine's Day and continue through Feb. 17, the 150th anniversary of the Hunley sinking. There will be an honor guard and living history scenes at the Hunley lab as part of the commemoration as well as a presentation by genealogist Linda Abrams who researched the backgrounds of the sub's crew.
