USC University Hospital Dedicates The New Norris Inpatient Tower
Officials of USC University Hospital (USCUH), Tenet Healthcare Corporation and the University of Southern California on Wednesday dedicated the Norris Inpatient Tower, a 10-story, $150-million addition to USCUH in a ceremony attended by hospital staff, administrators, volunteers, physicians, and governing board members.
"Today marks another important milestone for USC/Norris Cancer Hospital and USC University Hospital that will further our shared mission of treating life-threatening disease and supporting advanced medical research," said Debbie Walsh, the administrator and chief operating officer of both hospitals. "More than eight years and thousands of hours have gone into the careful planning of this new patient tower. We're excited to finally share it with the community."
Covering more than 193,000 square feet, the new Norris Inpatient Tower includes 146 patient beds; 96 percent of the beds are in private rooms and many are dedicated to the care of cancer patients. The new tower is attached to the main USCUH facility, which increases patient care efficiency by making it easily accessible to medical staff, patients and their families.
The Norris Inpatient Tower is equipped with advanced medical technology to support the latest in clinical care. Eleven new operating rooms nearly double USCUH's surgical capacity and includes three ultra-modern operating suites that are primarily for minimally invasive surgeries. A fourth suite will be equipped with highly advanced intra-operative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) equipment that will give surgeons real-time patient images and feedback during surgery, enabling them to perform even more precise neurosurgical procedures.
Additional features of the Norris Inpatient Tower's advancements in medicine and patient care include:
An entire floor specifically designed for medical oncology inpatient care. Every room on this floor is equipped with a positive pressure system designed to shield immune suppressed patients from airborne contaminants.
A satellite pharmacy on the medical oncology floor to provide immediate chemotherapy needs to oncology patients.
A sterile processing department with some of the most advanced equipment available, including two walk-in sterilization chambers that are about five feet tall and six feet long — large enough to sterilize three operating room carts of equipment at a time.
Dedicated elevators that connect the sterile processing department to the surgery suite, which will improve efficiency.
As one of only two major university-affiliated teaching centers in Los Angeles, the new Norris Inpatient Tower adds to Los Angeles' capacity for advanced medical research in the ongoing search for cures and treatments for cancer and other life-threatening diseases.
In the 15 years since opening its doors, USCUH has consistently grown its capacity to care for some of the area's most acutely sick patients and has become one of "America's Best Hospitals" as reported by U.S. News & World Report.
"USCUH is one of the youngest hospitals in the area, and we're proud of the fast pace of accomplishments we've achieved through our expansion. This growth has contributed to our ability to provide high quality care for our patients," said Walsh. "The dedication of the new Norris Inpatient Tower is the perfect capstone to celebrate the hospital's 15th anniversary year."
USC University Hospital (USCUH) and USC/Norris Cancer Hospital, part of Tenet California, are private, research and teaching hospitals staffed by the faculty of the renowned Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California. USCUH and USC/Norris offer patients the compassionate environment of private hospitals hand-in-hand with the extensive experience and research capabilities of a prominent medical school. Both hospitals are fully accredited by the Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations. To learn more, visit http://www.uscuh.com or call (323) 442-8500.

While city officials, state and federal rescue workers ensured the safety of humans during the Willard chemical spill, a different group worked for the well being of their four-legged friends.
Huron County Humane Society shelter manager/humane investigator Kathleen Hampton was notified on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving about the need to rescue pets.
Hampton and Huron County Dog Warden Gary Ousley first met with a disaster planning team at Willard Fire & Rescue headquarters. Then, they went door-to-door with a CSX representative who first used a meter to test air quality before allowing them to enter a yard or home.
A story about their efforts was published in Friday's Norwalk Reflector.

M3AAWG Issues Mobile Messaging Best Practices for Service Providers to Combat Increasing Text Spam
(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) SAN FRANCISCO, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 07/31/14 -- Responding to the billions of spam text messages sent each year, the new M3AAWG Mobile Messaging Best Practices for Service Providers just released by the Messaging, Malware and Mobile Anti-Abuse Working Group offers industry guidelines to better protect end-users. The best practices are intended to improve operator security in an increasingly open, globally interconnected messaging environment.
Faced with escalating volumes of mobile spam as the cost to send text messages continues to fall, many service providers are looking for more effective defense techniques that are also compatible with global connectivity needs. The new document, released today at the M3AAWG India Anti-Abuse Working Group meeting in New Delhi, outlines the latest approaches to curbing text, mobile and application-to-person messaging abuse, including SMS, MMS and RCS services.
"As texting becomes less expensive and more accessible with Internet technologies like text-enabled landline accounts, we're increasingly seeing criminals turning text spam into an illicit money-making machine at the expense of consumers. Mobile abuse is rising significantly. These new best practices incorporate a decade of experience in fighting email and mobile abuse in M3AAWG and outline techniques specific to mobile messaging that can help protect service providers' networks from being exploited," said Alex Bobotek, M3AAWG Vice Chairman.
The best practices focus on three areas: service design practices, defensive strategies, and abuse detection and mitigation techniques. Key strategies to mitigate text message spam include making abuse less profitable, developing agile defenses and using diverse methods to increase the penetration resistance of an operator's defenses.
Among other guidelines, the best practices recommend: Preventing automatic account creation and requiring secure authentication, such as a government-issued identification, when opening new end-user accounts.Limiting the number of messages new accounts can send at one time and monitoring the black market for the sale of bulk end-user accounts.Monitoring and limiting spam endorsements (spamprogration), especially when an application sends invites or suggested downloads to end-users' contact lists without their permission.Providing user feedback options with a "This Is Spam" button, using the 7726 (spells "spam" on a mobile keyboard) reporting system or an alternative mechanism.Participating in industry abuse information-sharing forums to stay current on the latest mobile messaging attack techniques.
The M3AAWG Mobile Messaging Best Practices for Service Providers are available from the M3AAWG website at www.m3aawg.org/mobilemessagingbp.pdf or from the site's Activities tab under the Published Documents section at

Keeps ears dry
posted 6 years ago
I had a couple of cats that had chronic ear problems. If left untreated they would get bacterial or yeast infections of the ear. I started cleaning their ears with Foster & Smith Ear Clens. Once the ears were dry I would apply the powder to keep them dry. It works really well & the ear canal seems to stay dry without getting gunked up from the powder. No more ear problems here.
Pros: keeps ears dry, reduces risk of infection
Cons: none

In many cases mediation is the most cost-efficient and effective method of resolving a case. Often, litigants can save a lot of money and time when mediation is held after first tier discovery has been completed, once the core facts are determined that circumscribe the dispute. In order to facilitate early resolution many California courts have implemented mediation programs and asked mediators to volunteer their time. Unfortunately, many mediators are becoming discouraged with these programs because many times the parties are not prepared.
Speaking to a number of Bay Area mediators who participate in the court ordered mediation panels, they have uniformly identified that the majority of the court ordered mediation cases are breach of contract and personal injury cases.
It was a consensus that, whether the information is obtained through investigation, informal exchange of information or formal discovery, parties need to know the absolute basics of their case so that they can intelligently mediate. Mediation is not the time to expect an opponent to "educate" you of the basic understanding of your case. This may seem to be obvious, but in hearing the stories from the mediators it was surprising on how unprepared many parties are. Continued below...

Pune: An IT proffessional was killed on the expressway on Sunday after a truck entered the e-way illegally. Shridhar Shrikrishna Kulkarni, 30, who had just come back from his London trip was traveling in his car on the e-way when he was hit in the rear by a speeding truck. This incident took place near Somatane Phata exit where the truck entered illegaly.
The Maharasthra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC), has finally woken up to this tragedy and will close the opening at the exit of Somatane Phata. They visited the spot of the accident and found that vehicles from Pimpri Chinchwad Municipal Corporation were
entering from the one way ofthe exit to gain access to thee-way illegally.
Arun Deodhar, chief engineer of MSRDC, said that they had made the exit point near PCMC to avoid congestion at the e-way exit. They had installed a railing to avoid illegal trespassers
but they were removed by nearby villagers for easy access.
"We'll install the new railing by the end of this month and
we have already alerted the highway traffic cops and the local police to keep a check on vehicles entering the e-way illegally,"
Deodhar added.
Lalit Palunde, Senior Police Inspector of Highway traffic police said, "After the Sunday incident we have increased the patrolling to stop local residents from entering the e-way through this exit."

Soho Grand Hotel, New York
310 West Broadway at Grand Street, New York City, NY, USA
Neighborhood: Manhattan - Soho
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
On the outside, with its cheery pink brick facade, the SoHo Grand resembles a brand-new shopping complex. But inside is a different story. Cast iron dogs stand guard at industrial design central — square lights, molded concrete walls, a coffee table the size of a grand piano. There's mesh wire glass everywhere, including on the writing desks in the rooms. The floors are the same stuff you see on New York sidewalks — corrugated steel for the elevators, and cast iron and glass for the stairs.
When it opened in 1996, the Grand was the first big SoHo hotel, and its downtown location has continued to be a major factor in its identity. Take the concierges, who can get you a reservation at the hottest underground restaurant and fill you in on the hippest goings-on. Here's where you'll find Tokyo urbanites in platforms, tough-talking London businessmen on their cells, lanky Nigerian models, many rock and roll musicians, and a lot of crazy hair. It's easy for that much hipness to be intimidating, but the Grand, despite its name, is warm and happy. Maybe it's the pet friendly atmosphere — Fifi can munch on a biscuit at the bar while you drink your Tartini, and you can even borrow a goldfish to keep you company through those long Manhattan nights. Or perhaps it's the fact that while it's undisputedly cool, the Grand is also curiously reminiscent of dormitory days, with its reupholstered sofas and signature dish of macaroni and cheese on the menu, available in any of the three dining spaces on the second floor (plus The Yard outside during the warmer season).

i booked hotel for night before my daughter's wedding and wedding night - was told there would be room to have hairdresser and make-up person in room for six women - was told room given us had ample space for that "that room was used for that purpose many times in past" the room was tiny and there was no way we could have had above done - the bride was very upset (hysterical) and so hotel gave us adjoining rooms to have work done for wedding party - also many things in room were in disrepair - manager, however, was very obliging.

I have stayed at the Soho Grand a few times in the past and have found both the service and the rooms much better on previous stays. My room (at USD500/night) was extremely pokey and they could not/would not move me. The receptionist failed to look me in the eye once on check in. I thought that was rude. My luggage took so long to arrive in my room, that after 2 phone calls and a 45 min wait I went down and collected it myself from the entrance, where it still was. I am 6months pregnant.

Jets place KR-WR Cribbs on injured reserve, sign Reynaud
The New York Jets have placed kick returner-wide receiver Josh Cribbs on injured reserve and signed former Tennessee kick returner Darius Reynaud to replace him.
NEED SOME? GET SOMEFeed your NFL addiction! Come feast on all the news in our updating blog.
Cribbs injured his right shoulder in the Jets' 23-3 loss to Miami on Sunday. Coach Rex Ryan said Monday that the injury appeared ''pretty serious.''
Cribbs, signed by the Jets in October, averaged 24.5 yards on 20 kick returns and returned eight punts for a 12-yard average.
Reynaud was cut by the Titans in October after muffing a punt that resulted in a touchdown by San Francisco. He has two career punt returns for scores, and also has returned a kickoff for a touchdown. Reynaud, averaging 22.5 yards on kickoff returns and 9.7 on punts, has also spent time with the Giants and Minnesota Vikings.

There are growing fears that the England FA will allow former Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho to slip through the managerial net.
The Sun says the people's choice for the post has just signed a sponsorship deal worth up to £2million a year with adidas, the company closely associated with Real Madrid.
And the Bernabeu club have asked Mourinho's people to inform them of any job offers he receives.
Yet a source close to Mourinho insisted there is nothing to report.
The source said: "Jose would like to talk to the FA about the England job but no one has called him. Contact has been made indirectly by a couple of individuals who know Jose and who wanted to get a feel for his view on the job.
"But Jose will only talk to the people who'll make the appointment and they haven't spoken with him."
A close pal of Mourinho said: "There has been absolutely no official approach from the FA yet.
"There has been a preliminary approach but no official approach. Jose's waiting to see if that happens."

As usual, only 1-A games are counted, so it doesn't matter how badly you beat a AA foe (or if you actually struggled or lost to them), it simply counts as a bye.
No boost to winning percentage, no drop to schedule strength. It's as if the game wasn't played. In some cases (cough, cough, Florida St), it entirely explains
why the schedule is rated to highly; count AA games and it drops like a stone.
Also, please remember that these ratings are used for the sole purpose of predicting future results. There are no bonus points for being undefeated, or being from
a top conference, or playing X number of top 25 teams, or beating a team with a similar ranking head to head, or any single other sort of adjustment that many people use when making their rankings.
Schedule strength counts a lot, and margin counts a lot. A close loss against a great team gives a better rating than a close win against a lousy team. Many people object to this, but in terms of predictive value,
I consider it the only way to go. These rankings look different than most human polls, and for that matter they look different from most computer polls. That's OK. It's supposed to look different, both because its goals
are different, and because it operates differently from other models. The only standard I use to judge it is how accurate its picks are, and so far this year it's been pretty decent.
Team Rankings
Schedule Strength - Top 30 and Bottom 30
Most vs Least Improved - Top 25 and Bottom 25
Home Cooking vs Road Warriors - Top 25 and Bottom 25 Home-Field Factor
This describes how much better a team played at home vs on the road. It's well worth noting
that it's neither good nor bad to be high or low on this list; it's good to have an especially strong
home-field edge, with a loud crowd and possibly a weather edge, but it's also good to be able
to play well on the road. Consequently, you will tend to see most really good teams around the middle of
the list, because they do have a strong home-field edge but also are very capable of playing well on the road.
Conference Rankings - Best to Worst
To be honest, I don't like these numbers. One of the components to the computer rankings is
momentum, and it looks like that one became more of a factor than I wanted it to be. Next year I'll
edit the formulas a bit to dampen the effect, but as usual I'm not going to make changes mid-stream.
40 Best and 40 Worst Non-Conference Performances
All non-conference games matter when rating a league, but some games are especially good or especially bad. These are the
most prominent examples. Quality of opposition, score, time of year, overtime, and location (home/away/neutral field) all count towards the rating.
Of course, there's more to it than just these games; for instance, the Big East got a huge boost when Syracuse, their worst team by far, went into South Bend
and won. By itself, a one point win over Notre Dame isn't a massive deal, but when your worst team does it, that says something
(on the flip side, the Big Ten's last three OOC games were losses to mediocre MAC teams, which is why they're rated worst of the six BCS leagues).
But these are the really note-worthy games, the ones that tend to make headlines, either for good or for bad.

Tucked away in beautiful Wallonia on the Belgian-French border, Landal Village l'Eau d'Heure enjoys an idyllic setting beside Lac de la Plate Taille, the largest of five magnificent man-made lakes. A superb base in a unique area uniting the peace and tranquillity of water with a wealth of unusual historic attractions - perfect for a European holiday with a difference!

Comments, questions and tips
This soup is delicious! A new favourite. I read a few comments and stole some ideas to make the perfect version. I added a whole tin of chickpeas and added them ten minutes into the simmering period before blending. This made the soup the perfect consistency. I also added thin slices of chorizo and blended to give it a nice smoky taste! Definitely recommend this very yummy and filling soup.
This soup is perfect for anyone watching what they're eating! It fills you up and it's really low in fat and calories! I didn't have a blender so I just used a masher on the larger bits and I found it needed simmering for a little while after the chickpeas had been added to make sure it was smooth! I used hot chillis from a grinder rather than flakes and added a large pinch so it had a good kick to it! Enjoy! I know I did!
For the first time I'm disappointed with the outcome of this site's recipe. There was no chilli flavour, nor the lentils, and it all just tasted completely bland. The consistency was a little bit off as well, too runny, although I kept proportions according to the recipe. I might try to make it once again, but right now I really don't think I'll bother.
I have been making this soup on a regular basis for over two years and consider it one of the tastiest soups around. I prefer to use dried chickpeas soaked overnight and add them to the soup along with the lentils. Using a stick blender I whizz the soup with the chickpeas into a rough puree. It is a great soup for a chilli head like me, put as many in as you like - enjoy
A deliciously spiced dish that mixes both smooth and chunky soup in the one go! Perfect for using up storecupboard ingredients and the flavour is really comforing. Cup a'proper soup anyone? You can see my result on my blog here:

Students of a Saligramam school lead difficult lives, yet are driven to come up in life
CHENNAI: For students and teachers of General Cariappa Higher Secondary School in Saligramam, it was time to celebrate on Friday, when the State Board class XII (HSC) examination results were declared.
The school has six State toppers in the vocational stream subjects — Draftsman (Civil), Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Equipment, and Photography.
Headmistress of the school M. Thirumani Vanitha says: The students of the government-aided schools are largely from very low economic backgrounds. "Most of our students' fathers are daily wage earners and their mothers work as domestic help. The parents and children are determined to make a difference to their lives through education."
R. Priyadarshini and K. Bhakiyalakshmi have bagged the first two State ranks in Draftsman (Civil), while G. Arulraj, S. Manojkumar and V. Silambrasan have secured the first three ranks in Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Equipment. S. Suresh has topped the State in Photography.
Priyadarshini says she knew she would do well and is elated about the State rank. "I worked really hard … my mother works as a domestic help and she made sure I ate and slept well, even if there was no food for her," she says.
Her father abandoned the family when she was barely six and since then, her mother Chandra has been toiling to ensure her daughter and son, now in Class VII, studied. "I am the first person to complete Class XII in my entire family. I wish to study engineering. But without financial support, it will not be possible."
Ms. Chandra works in about four homes and earns less than Rs.2,000 per month. "On several days, we've gone to bed without having anything to eat. But my daughter worked so hard and is now eager to pursue higher education. But that will cost a lot and I don't know if I will be able to send her to college," she says.
Arulraj says he hopes to study computer science. "My father doesn't live with us and my mother works at the checking point of an export company," he says. His mother, too, has worked really hard to bring him up.
"Most children coming to our school lead very difficult lives. But their determination to do well and come up in life is amazing," Ms. Vanitha says.
Success stories
The teachers motivate students by narrating success stories of alumni.
"One of our students completed his engineering, and then got placed in a top IT company. Now, he is doing very well in London," she adds.

Ombudsman seeks arrest of ex-PNP chief for graft
The Office of the Ombudsman has asked the Sandiganbayan to order the arrest and incarceration of six former police officials, including former Philippine National Police chief Director General Avelino Razon Jr., throughout their trial for graft involving fictitious repair and maintenance of light armored vehicles.
The Ombudsman prosecution team headed by Manuel T. Soriano Jr. has recommended the arrest without bail of Razon and his codefendants owing to the huge amount involved in the irregularity—P358.48 million for the phantom repair and maintenance of the V-150 light armored vehicles during Razon's term as PNP chief.
Razon served as PNP chief from October 2007 to May 2008 then moved to Malacañang as then President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo's adviser for the peace process with the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF).
The irregularity was discovered in 2011, and the then PNP chief, Director General Raul Bacalzo, ordered the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG) to investigate and determine the criminal liability of the police officials and suppliers involved.
A six-member fact-finding committee earlier found "gross violations" in the award of a contract for the repair and refurbishment of 28 V-150 light armored vehicles used by the PNP's Special Action Force and Regional Safety Battalions.
The committee found that the repair costs under the contract were more than 30 percent of the original acquisition price of the armored vehicles.
It also noted the hasty processing of the claims and payments made in January 2007, "even before the first of the refurbished [armored vehicles] were delivered." Those vehicles were delivered seven months later.
Criminal charges were brought against Razon and five other police officials.
The charges involved four contracts:
— P239.61-million contract for the repair and maintenance of 18 V-150s to Evans, RJP and Enviro-Aire (charged for a simulated public bidding, with the bidding notice published in a "nonexistent publication," Alppa Times News).
— P134.39 million for the repair and maintenance of 10 V-150s to Evans, Enviro-Aire and RJP (no delivery of engine and transmission reports despite full payment).
— P8.7-million phantom delivery of supplies from RKGK and Dex-Lan.
— P2.78 million for the purchase of tires from Serpenair.
A joint team of investigators from the Ombudsman and the Commission on Audit was formed to investigate the contracts and found that the suppliers faked delivery receipts, certifications, inspection and acceptance reports, prerepair and postinspection reports and disbursement vouchers to collect payments.
The Deputy Ombudsman for Military and Other Law Enforcement Offices subsequently launched an investigation and later found Razon and several other PNP officials and employees and private individuals liable for plunder, graft, malversation through falsification of public documents and violation of the procurement law.
Ombudsman Conchita Carpio Morales approved the investigation report, and criminal charges were brought against Razon and other police officials in the Office of the Ombudsman.
The Ombudsman resolved the case on Dec. 28, 2012, finding probable cause to prosecute Razon and the others.
Earlier this month, Morales affirmed the resolution, and criminal charges were filed in the Sandiganbayan against Razon and 22 former and current police officials and the private contractors.
During the investigation, Razon denied colluding with the suppliers to rig the auction for the contracts. He said there were no phantom repairs, as the light armored vehicles had been actually refurbished.
"The V-150s were repaired or refurbished. If ever, we can call it 'alleged anomalous repairs or irregular repairs.' Calling it ghost repair is bringing it too off-center," Razon told reporters at the time.
Aside from Razon, five other former police officials were charged in the Sandiganbyan: former PNP comptrollers Eliseo de la Paz and Geary L. Barias; former PNP National Headquarters-Bids and Awards Committee chair Reynaldo P. Varilla and vice chair Charlemagne S. Alejandrino; and former Logistics Support Service (LSS) Director Teodorico R. Lapuz IV.
The Ombudsman indicted 11 other police officials: Victor G. Agarcio, Emmanuel Ojeda and Reuel Leverne B. Labrado; Superintendents Rainier A. Espina; Warlito T. Tubon, Henry Y. Duque, Edgar B. Paatan; Josefina B. Dumanew; Analee R. Forro; Victor M. Puddao and Alfredo M. Laviña.
Also charged were six PNP employees—Antonio Retrato, Eulito T. Fuentes, Patricia Enaje, Maria Teresa Narcise, Nancy Basallo and Alex R. Barrameda.
Charges were brought against 10 private individuals from the suppliers: Artemio B. Zuñiga, Gigie Marpa, Marianne Jimenez, Oscar Madamba, Carmencita Salvador, Rasita Zaballero, Harold and Tyrone Ong, Pamela Pensotes and Evangeline Bais.—With Inquirer Research

Like many students, you're probably wondering how on Earth you're going to pay for another semester of college, especially if you've either a) missed the deadline for your school's scholarships or b) don't feel like writing an essay, filling out forms, etc. But fear not: There are plenty of less traditional scholarships available throughout the year. And let me tell you, some of the scholarships out there are strange.
To illustrate what I mean, take a look at the Eileen J. Garrett Scholarship. This scholarship is specifically for students studying parapsychology, the study of near-death experience, psychic powers, reincarnation and more. I had no idea you could get a scholarship in parapsychology, let alone major in it!
Equally bizarre is the Gatling Scholarship at North Carolina State University. This scholarship requires that your last name be Gatling or Gatlin (no other variations will be considered) in honor of North Carolinian entrepreneur John Gatling. And no, you can't legally change your last name to be considered for this scholarship – a copy of your birth certificate is required.
And since we've all heard about students who get scholarships based solely on their sports performance, here's one to level the playing field for the less athletically inclined: the Gertrude J. Deppen Scholarship. This scholarship is awarded at Bucknell University in varying amounts each year to students who not only do not participate in strenuous athletic contests but also abstain from tobacco, liquor and narcotics. I don't know about you but this is the first time I've heard of a scholarship which awards you for not doing something!
So, while some of the scholarship deadlines may have already passed, remember that there are hundreds, even thousands of other scholarships and grants out there. And if you have your heart set on one scholarship but the application deadline has already passed, at least now you'll have months to prepare for it. Good luck!

Though most of my posts have been geared toward college students, this one is for the parental readers out there. Scholarships aren't only available to high school and college students but to younger students, too: Not many parents know that they can find scholarships for their children who are as young as 10 years old! What's more, the scholarship programs available to young children aren't as competitive, since not many parents know to search so early for financial aid.
As a parent, you may think financial aid isn't a topic to discuss until your child is in high school but you're not doing your child or yourself any favors by waiting – financial services are available right now! There are just a few easy steps parents can take to receive scholarships for their child. First, see what interests your child and have them join clubs and organizations that will expand on those interests.

SeasonPostseasonGame LogSplitsBatterUmpireNotes3/20/2014 10:40:00 AMDescription: Royals starter Kris Medlen, who underwent Tommy John surgery a year ago this week, threw off a mound for the first time on Wednesday.Insight: Medlen has gone through two TJ surgeries. He's looking at an All-Star break timetable for his return. He was 10-1 in 2012 and 15-12 in 2013 so we know he has the ability to win when healthy. 3/17/2014 6:37:00 PMDescription: Atlanta starter Kris Medlen (right elbow) will undergo Tommy John surgery on Tuesday, according to Mark Bowman of mlb.com.Insight: Medlen had the surgery back in 2010 and injured his elbow again on March 9. Dr. James Andrews confirmed the initial diagnosis on Monday. 3/14/2014 2:15:00 PMDescription: Atlanta starter Kris Medlen (right elbow) will se Dr. James Andrews on Monday. SOURCE: Dave O'Brien, Atlanta Journal-ConstitutionInsight: We hope Dr. Andrews is offering the Braves a group discount as he'll be joined there by Brandon Beachy. Medlen is expected to need Tommy John surgery, Beachy is expected to miss just a start or two at this point. 3/12/2014 11:05:00 AMDescription: Atlanta starter Kris Medlen believes he'll need Tommy John surgery on his right elbow. SOURCE: Dave O'Brien, Atlanta Journal-ConstitutionInsight: We assumed that was the case when the Braves forked over $14 million for Ervin Santana on Wednesday morning. If it happens, this will be his second Tommy John surgery in the last four years. Medlen has thrown 512 2/3 innings at the big league level with his most coming in 2013 (197 innings). 3/11/2014 2:33:00 PMDescription: Kris Medlen's MRI apparently showed some ligament damage in his elbow, according to Dave O'Brien of Atlanta Journal-Constitution.Insight: That's not good. He's headed to Dr. James Andrews for a second opinion. Medlen (15-12, 3.11 ERA in 2013) could be headed for his second Tommy John surgery. 3/10/2014 8:51:00 PMDescription: Braves righthander Kris Medlen had an MRI on his right arm this afternoon. SOURCE: Mark Bowman, MLB.comInsight: Atlanta fans are praying he doesn't need Tommy John surgery. We should get an update on Medlen's condition sometime in the next 24 hours. 3/9/2014 3:33:00 PMDescription: The Braves are calling Kris Medlen's injury a forearm strain, according to David O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Medlen left Sunday's spring training start with the injury. He'll still need an MRI to determine the extent of his injury.Insight: Medlen grabbed his elbow after throwing his next-to-last pitch, then hopped off the mound toward the dugout immediately after the next one. He's not out of the woods yet, as forearm soreness can sometimes be indicative of a problem with the elbow. Medlen already has one Tommy John surgery under his belt, which came back in August 2010. 3/9/2014 2:48:00 PMDescription: Atlanta starter Kris Medlen suffered an apparent elbow injury during Sunday's spring training start against the Mets.Insight: Medlen grabbed his elbow after throwing his next-to-last pitch, then hopped off the mound toward the dugout immediately after the next one, according to David O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. We're awaiting updates from the Braves. 10/6/2013 7:07:00 PMDescription: Atlanta starter Kris Medlen will start versus the Dodgers in Game 5 of the NLDS if necessary.Insight: Medlen (15-12, 3.11 ERA) had a fantastic September but didn't pitch well in Game 1. Hot9/27/2013 10:00:00 PMDescription: Atlanta starter Kris Medlen two-hit the Phillies over eight scoreless innings Friday night to win his 15th game of the season.Insight: For the second straight year, Medlen (15-12, 3.11 ERA) has been brilliant down the stretch. He went 5-0 with a 0.84 ERA over his final six starts this season after going 9-0 with a 0.97 ERA in his last 12 starts last year. Hot9/21/2013 9:35:00 PMDescription: Atlanta starter Kris Medlen failed to win his fifth consecutive start Saturday against the Cubs, but he did provide fantasy owners with 7 1/3 innings and six strikeouts while allowing one earned run on six hits.Insight: Medlen has had another late-season surge. Since dropping to 6-10 with a 3.78 ERA on July 28, he has gone 8-2 with a 2.31 ERA. That includes a 4-0 record and a 1.01 ERA over his last five starts. Saturday was actually his first no decision since May 24. Hot9/14/2013 10:28:00 PMDescription: Atlanta righthander Kris Medlen won his fourth straight Saturday against the Padres.Insight: Medlen is quickly becoming the ace of this staff. During the win streak, he's carried a 0.98 ERA with a 26 to four strikeout to walk ratio. He's lowered his ERA from 3.74 to 3.32 over that stretch. Hot9/3/2013 10:12:00 PMDescription: Braves starter Kris Medlen has gone 6-2 over his last eight appearances to improve from 6-10 to 12-12.Insight: Medlen nearly lost his spot in the starting rotation earlier this season but injuries prevented that from happening. He struck out nine, walked none and allowed one earned run on seven hits over seven innings Tuesday against the Mets and owns a 2.76 ERA and a 43/6 K/BB over his last 49 innings. Hot8/29/2013 10:15:00 PMDescription: Braves starter Kris Medlen held the Indians to six hits in seven scoreless frames Thursday at Turner Field.Insight: Medlen was about to lose his spot in the starting rotation a few weeks ago but injuries to Tim Hudson and Brandon Beachy prevented that from happening. Since then he's been on a roll, allowing just five runs in his last 23 innings (1.96 ERA). 8/18/2013 9:22:00 AMDescription: Atlanta righthander Kris Medlen made his first relief appearance of the season Saturday in a 15-inning loss to Washington.Insight: Medlen allowed four hits and one run in his three innings of work. After throwing 47 pitches, he'll have his next start pushed back to Saturday. Originally, Medlen had been scheduled to throw Tuesday against the Mets. 8/13/2013 9:52:00 PMDescription: Braves starter Kris Medlen ran his record to 10-10 Tuesday with his fourth straight victory.Insight: Medlen allowed just one earned run on five hits and struck out five with one walk over seven innings Tuesday against the Phillies. During his four-game winning streak, Medlen has a 3.46 ERA, a 1.00 WHIP and a 23/4 K/BB in 26 innings. Cold7/23/2013 10:19:00 PMDescription: Braves starter Kris Medlen looked like a fantasy ace last season, but he is just 6-10 with a 3.78 ERA and a 1.38 WHIP after losing Tuesday's game to the Mets.Insight: Medlen has allowed 55 hits in just 40 2/3 innings and posted a 5.53 ERA over his last seven starts. He's in jeopardy of being demoted to the bullpen when Brandon Beachy returns from his Tommy John rehab because he is underperforming and already has bullpen experience. 6/11/2013 2:00:00 PMDescription: Righthander Kris Medlen has not been producing like he did last season and the Braves may be considering sending him to the bullpen when Brandon Beachy (on rehab) is ready to return to the rotation.Insight: Medlen has a respectable 2.87 ERA, but nothing compared to last season when he went 10-1 with a 1.57 ERA and 0.913 WHIP. Medlen's fantasy value would be almost non-existent in the Braves bullpen. 6/3/2013 10:34:00 PMDescription: Righthander Kris Medlen limited the Pirates to just one run on seven hits Monday in in 7-2 Atlanta victory.Insight: The one run Medlen allowed was unearned. Monday's win was Medlen's first since April 9th against the Marlins. Despite his 2-6 record, Medlen still has one of the lowest ERAs on the Braves' pitching staff (3.14 in 71 2/3 innings). 5/29/2013 8:33:00 PMDescription: Braves starter Kris Medlen left Wednesday's outing with a left calf contusion after being hit with a comebacker, according to David O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.Insight: Medlen brought a 1-5 record into Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays despite carrying a 3.16 ERA. He'll probably be OK for his next start.

Welcome to high desert Mexico
As we would find out, there is a lot of "high desert" in northern Mexico. We were on a lot of roads that have sections where you can see the road disappearing straight over the horizon 10 miles away, alternating with sections where the road has to go over a ridge or minor mountain range.
First snack and photo stop in Mexico:
We got the vehicle permits at the border station, but no-one there checked them. I hadn't realized it, but there is a sort of "free trade zone" along the border. The Mexican government wisely realizes that people who live right on the border will probably buy vehicles and lots of other stuff in Texas and New Mexico. Rather than try to tax and/or track all of that, they just set up a sort of secondary border beyond which you actually do have to have the permit.
Right before this check station we stopped because Tony's KTM had hit reserve earlier than expected. This might have been due to some top speed testing that Gustavo carried out on a long straight section of road.
In any case, Tony had a siphon, and we transferred some gas from the miserly DL650 to the gas-sucking KTM
We ate lunch in Ascension at El Dorado. Our first taste of authentic Mexican cuisine on the trip, and Tony would claim that they had the best salsa of any meal for the whole trip.
We arrived in Nuevo Casas Grandes in mid-afternoon and checked into the Hotel Pinon.

Remember These Former Quincy Mall Stores?
A lot of changes are coming to the Quincy Mall. First, we found out that J.C. Penney was closing, and then DEB. Most recently, it was announced that RadioShack is also closing. I was reminiscing this morning about some of the stores that used to be in the Quincy Mall, but are no longer there. Remember these?

At least 24 people were killed and more than double that number injured in a blast that ripped through a market of Khyber tribal agency on Saturday morning. The explosive material was packed into a car at the market and the blast triggered had a cascading effect because it took place near a shop selling gas cylinders.
The blast took place at Landi Kotal, about seven km from the Torkham border crossing point with Afghanistan. Eyewitnesses claimed that someone drove the car into the marketplace just minutes before the explosion. No outfit had claimed responsibility till late in the evening.
Doctors feared the death toll could go up as at least 10 of the injured were in a critical condition and had to be shifted from the local hospital in Landi Kotal to Peshawar.

Violence, veterans, and apple pie
- By Thomas E. RicksThomas E. Ricks covered the U.S. military for the Washington Post from 2000 through 2008. He can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Here is a note I wrote to a friend who was working on producing a play that got into the themes of how combat changes those who wage it. I sent this in January but noticed it on my laptop the other night and thought it might be worth sharing here.
First, violence is American as apple pie. This is a nation built on extraordinarily large-scale violence, especially against slaves and Native Americans, as well as settlers against each other. And it was pretty recent — the last Army massacre of Indians, at Wounded Knee, occurred only 121 years ago. Covering the military in this country, I used to joke, was like covering wine and cheese in France — that is, it goes to the heart of the culture. I only found out on Saturday after I drove all day and checked into a motel on a snowy evening in Massachusetts that another episode in our national violence had happened, with the shooting of a federal judge, a member of Congress, and a little girl, among others, in Arizona.
Second, and more specifically, on the military and violence: One of the things that astonishes me is how we teach young men (and some women) to go overseas and kill people, and expect them to be "normal" when they leave the military a year or two later. Killing people changes those who kill. Two of the things I have learned from a Marine who did four hard tours in Iraq are:
–The best thing we can do for these people is listen to them, intently.
–The best thing we can say to them is "welcome home." (Not, to the surprise of many, "thanks for your service.") He wrote about this for my blog under the provocative headline, "You can go strangle yourself with that yellow ribbon."
Third, I've been surprised at the art the Iraq war already has sparked. I thought The Hurt Locker, the movie about the bomb defusers in Iraq, was uneven but pretty good in capturing the vibe. Still, I think the best film "about" the Iraq war remains Battle of Algiers, made in about 1963, and one of my all-time favorite movies. A related thought: My wife and I went to see Black Watch at St. Ann's Warehouse in Brooklyn a couple of years ago. Terrific play, set in the spring of 2004 in Iraq, but I flinched and nearly left the theater when the bomb went off, with the Scottish soldiers flying slow-motion into the air. I was in a convoy that was bombed and machine gunned on the west bank of the Euphrates in the spring of 2004. I found out a day later that my father had died of a heart attack at almost the exact moment of that ambush.
Finally, on the supposed newness of PTSD: Yes, there has been a lot of discussion about it lately, but the problem of the mental aftershocks caused by war has long been recognized. The insane asylums after the Civil War were chockablock with veterans suffering from what I think they then called "soldiers' heart." And a lot of the atmosphere of the Old West of the 1870s and 1880s grows out of the Civil War, I think — not just outlaws, but also people who fled society to become near-hermits in the mountains or deserts. My friend Jonathan Shay, a veterans' counselor, has written two terrific books interpreting the Iliad and the Odyssey as being about the psychological trauma of combat. In a nutshell, he argues that the voyage of Odysseus is basically a metaphor of what it is like for the combat veteran to seek re-entry to civilized society — the visit to dead comrades in the underworld, being captured by drugs or sex, feeling adrift for many years.

Obama surprises with powerful U.N. speech on Middle EastColum Lynch
Colum Lynch is Foreign Policy's award-winning U.N.-based senior diplomatic reporter. Lynch previously wrote Foreign Policy's Turtle Bay blog, for which he was awarded the 2011 National Magazine Award for best reporting in digital media. He is also a recipient of the 2013 Elizabeth Neuffer Memorial Silver Prize for his coverage of the United Nations.
Before moving to Foreign Policy, Lynch reported on diplomacy and national security for the Washington Post for more than a decade. As the Washington Post's United Nations reporter, Lynch had been involved in the paper's diplomatic coverage of crises in Afghanistan, Iraq, Lebanon, Sudan, and Somalia, as well as the nuclear standoffs with Iran and North Korea. He also played a key part in the Post's diplomatic reporting on the Iraq war, the International Criminal Court, the spread of weapons of mass destruction, and U.S. counterterrorism strategy. Lynch's enterprise reporting has explored the underside of international diplomacy. His investigations have uncovered a U.S. spying operation in Iraq, Dick Cheney's former company's financial links to Saddam Hussein, and documented numerous sexual misconduct and corruption scandals.
Lynch has appeared frequently on the Lehrer News Hour, MSNBC, NPR radio, and the BBC. He has also moderated public discussions on foreign policy, including interviews with Susan E. Rice, the U.S. National Security Advisor, Gerard Araud, France's U.N. ambassador, and other senior diplomatic leaders.
Born in Los Angeles, California, Lynch received a bachelor's degree from the University of California, Berkeley, in 1985 and a master's degree from Columbia University's Graduate School of Journalism in 1987. He previously worked for the Boston Globe.| Turtle Bay |
