May 24, 2011The record may not have the same depth and variety that It Was Easy had, but as a document of what a Title Tracks show in 2011 sounds like, it's pretty much perfect.
Aug 3, 2011If you're in a good mood, bop along to the tunes; if you're feeling low, wallow in the lyric sheet. Something for everyone!
May 24, 2011With In Blank, Davis has tapped into something vital that even the best backing band can't automatically afford: confidence.
May 24, 2011Ably backed by bassist Michael Cotterman (ex-the Loved Ones) and Andrew Black on drums, if there's any flaw to the Title Tracks formula, it would be that they could make a few moments more flawed. But that's just the Q And Not U fan talking.
May 24, 2011In Blank would make a good background album for a hazy summer, but in terms of musicality, it comes out as too much of a cipher.

Left Flat by the Flat Tax?
If you want to understand the nature of the Greek crisis – sit in a darkened room watching Zorba the Greek.
If you want to understand the nature of the Bulgarian crisis – take a walk in downtown Sofia.
Ferraris and horse carts share the road in a snapshot of Bulgaria's transition. In between, an employee is waiting for the bus.
What all they share are taxes, flat taxes, that is.
The rulers' surprising decision to levy tax on bank deposit interest – in theory just an extension of the flat-rate tax base - fueled controversies and no little criticism.
It hurt the emotions mainly of those 75% of deposit holders in Bulgaria with BGN 1000 in their accounts. Because they were reminded that namely a flat tax is imposed on their miserable incomes - BGN 500, for ex.
Why not introduce a non-taxable threshold?
The strict policy is hardly because we are more American than Romney and more German than Merkel.
It is because being uptight about the human cost does not pay off, unlike being good to the rich back-seat rulers.
Which hardly makes the average Bulgarian better off than the average Greek, as claimed by the finance minister, right?

The cast already includes Jason Sudeikis, Alison Brie and Adam Scott.
Amanda Peet, Jason Mantzoukas and Natasha Lyonne are joining the cast of Sleeping With Other People, Sidney Kimmel's romantic comedy written and to be directed by Leslye Headland.
The ensemble cast already includes Jason Sudeikis, Alison Brie, and Adam Scott.
IM Global is selling international rights for the film in Cannes.
SKE describes the project as an "edgy romantic comedy about a womanizer named Jake (Sudeikis) and a serial cheater (Brie) who form a platonic relationship to overcome their chronic infidelity in this witty, contemporary take on modern dating -- in the vein of When Harry Met Sally … but with assholes."
Kimmel will produce along with Adam McKay, Will Ferrell and Jessica Elbaum of Gloria Sanchez Productions. (McKay, Ferrell, and Elbaum produced Headland's previous feature, Bachelorette.)
SKE is financing the comedy, which will shoot in New York in June.
Peet most recently appeared in The Way Way Back alongside Steve Carell and Toni Collette for Fox Searchlight.
Mantzoukas, who stars on the hit FX comedy The League, can be seen in the Seth Rogen-Zac Efron hit Neighbors.
Lyonne currently stars in the critically acclaimed Netflix original series Orange Is the New Black.

text: Michigan Watch A city 'reinventing' itself with less money from the state By Lester Graham • Sep 19, 2011 The Michigan legislature and the governor are working to make Michigan a more business-friendly state by changing the tax structure. But, while businesses are benefiting from already passed tax reductions --and anticipate more-- the change is costing communities. I went to one city to see how it was handling those changes. When I visited, it was a beautiful day in downtown Monroe. The city is situated on the River Raisin in the southeast corner of the state, right on Lake Erie. It's just 19 miles north of Toledo, Ohio. Another tax break for Michigan businesses? By Lester Graham • Sep 12, 2011 Lester Graham / Michigan Radio Michigan lawmakers are considering eliminating the Personal Property Tax. That's a tax businesses pay on equipment. The money goes directly to local units of government. Businesses say it's a complicated tax that punishes them for investing in equipment. Cities, townships, counties and schools say if the tax is eliminated, that revenue has to be replaced. School supplies not required, but encouraged By Lester Graham • Sep 6, 2011 Lester Graham / Michigan Radio For most Michigan kids, today is the first day back to school. And many are taking backpacks full of school supplies. They are not required to take school supplies. By state law the public schools are to supply everything students need for class. When you add it all up, the new school clothes, gym shoes, and all those binders, crayons, paper, pens and pencils, back-to-school shopping is big business. "It's really become probably the second biggest shopping period of the year, right behind Christmas." That's Tom Scott with Michigan Retailers Association. One national estimate puts back-to-school shopping at about 16 percent of retail business in a year. It's difficult to separate just how much of that is actual school supplies and not clothes or computers. The school districts always put out a long list of things kids might need for school and parents start hunting. Consequences of eliminating mandatory no-fault auto insurance By Lester Graham • Aug 29, 2011 Robbie Howell / Flickr The Michigan legislature is considering bills to end the state's mandatory no-fault auto insurance. Its supporters say it will give consumers more choices and help reduce cost of auto insurance. Opponents say it's a misguided effort that will have very little effect on insurance rates and could mean people who suffer injuries won't get the help they need to fully recover. Kristin Howard was driving, taking an interstate to work on a summer day in 2006 when her life was changed forever. Collapse of salmon in Lake Huron (Part 3) By Lester Graham • Aug 25, 2011 Lester Graham / Michigan Radio Part 3 of 3 part series - Salmon fishing has meant a lot of tourism dollars for cities along the coasts. But, changes in Lake Huron have caused a collapse of salmon. But, what if other Great Lakes lose their salmon? Fishing for salmon on some parts of Lake Huron is still a big deal. INTERNET AUDIO ADVERTISEMENT "This July for the first annual Mackinaw City Salmon Festival..." Big returns for subsidized fish (Part 2) By Lester Graham • Aug 24, 2011 Lester Graham / Michigan Radio Part 2 of a 3 part series - Listen Listening... / Fishing in the Great Lakes would not be what it is today without stocking Pacific salmon in the lakes. But it costs a lot of money. Michigan fisheries managers say it's worth every dime. In the second report of the series 'The Collapse of the Salmon Economy," we look at the economic benefits of subsidizing salmon fishing in the Great Lakes. In the 1960s, the state of Michigan first put salmon into the Great Lakes. It was a gamble to create world-class recreational fishing. Michigan spends about $8-million a year stocking salmon and other types of fish. But the Department of Natural Resources doesn't really know how many fish we're catching for those millions of dollars. Gary Whelan is in charge of the Michigan Department of Natural Resources fish hatcheries. "I wouldn't say we have no idea. I think we have a ballpark. We don't have a great estimate. We would like to have a lot better estimates than we have now. I would absolutely agree with that." A Michigan Watch analysis found the cost for each fish caught in Michigan waters ranges from a couple of dollars to $150 per fish caught, depending on species and depending on year. We use catch estimates used by some other Great Lakes states. The Michigan DNR's Gary Whelan questions those estimates and our calculations. And… he says besides, we're looking at it all wrong. It's not about the cost per hatchery-raised fish caught; it's about what those salmon mean to Michigan's economy. "You have lots of people, for example, who are catch-and-release fishermen who will never take fish home. But, they're spending a lot of money to go fishing for this fish or the opportunity to fish for them." And stocking Pacific salmon does attract anglers from all over. Collapse of the salmon economy (Part 1) By Lester Graham • Aug 23, 2011 Lester Graham / Michigan Radio Listen Listening... / To understand why salmon are so important to the Great Lakes and the Michigan economy, you first have to understand some history. It used to be the lake trout was the fish to catch. It was big. It was tasty. But, by the late 1950s, that fish and others had been severely over-fished. And, an eel-like, blood-sucking parasite called the sea lamprey further reduced lake trout numbers. Those weren't even the worst problems for lake trout. A fish called the alewife invaded the Great Lakes through manmade canals. Lake trout starting feeding on alewives. But alewives caused a thiamine deficiency in lake trout. A lack of vitamin B-1. Mark Gaden is with the Great Lakes Fishery Commission "The thiamine deficiency that the alewives cause is one of the top reasons why natural reproduction has been very slow to occur over the decades in the Great Lakes of these species." Catching a lake trout became rare. Nobel economists mixed on taxes and jobs equation By Lester Graham • Aug 2, 2011 Rick Snyder said the Michigan Business Tax was bad for business. "I propose replacing it with a flat six-percent corporate income tax. Let's take a job-killer environment; let's start creating jobs." He said it on the campaign trail. He made the point to business leaders. HIV prevention when time and money are short By Lester Graham • Jul 14, 2011 I can only imagine, thinking you might have been exposed to HIV might be one of the scariest things of a person's life. Am I infected? Will I get AIDS? Even more traumatic, is contracting it because you were sexually assaulted. David—not his real name— says he was at a bar one night late in 2009. He was hoping for a ride home. He ended up at another man's house and they had sex. David says it was unwanted, that it was sexual assault. "He doesn't think he assaulted me. So, uhm. But, he was going to against my will." Why did gasoline prices spike in Michigan? By Lester Graham • Jun 15, 2011 Lester Graham / Michigan Radio Everybody's got a theory why gasoline prices shot up. "I think gas prices are up because we're getting our gas from the wrong place. We need to get gas from Alaska." "I think gas prices are up because it's summertime and everybody wants to travel and it's a conspiracy." "Government regulators are not willing to rein in Wall Street. If you can speculate on a commodity and you have a hedge fund that's big enough, you can affect prices and earn profits." Reinvention vs. Redevelopment: A panel discussion at the Mackinac Policy Conference By Mark Brush & Lester Graham • Jun 6, 2011 Lester Graham / Michigan Radio Michigan Radio's Lester Graham moderated a panel discussion looking into the current state of brownfield redevelopment in Michigan at the Mackinac Policy Conference last week. He spoke with Michael Finney, the President and CEO of the Michigan Economic Development Corporation, and James Clift, the Policy Director for the Michigan Environmental Council. They talked about Governor Snyder's plan to replace the current system of brownfield tax credits with up-front grant money for redevelopment. You can watch the discussion below. Environmental Panel: Reinvention vs. Redevelopment New requirements for 'fracking' in Michigan By Lester Graham • May 26, 2011 Yesterday, the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality announced new requirements to address public concern about potential pollution connected with horizontal fracturing (fracking) for natural gas. From the DEQ news release: The requirements, issued as New Permitting Instructions by the state Supervisor of Wells, include: No state help to bury the poor By Lester Graham • May 24, 2011 Lester Graham / Michigan Radio UPDATE 11:13 a.m.: At the request of Michigan Watch, the Michigan Department of Human Services retrieved data regarding the number of unclaimed bodies during the calendar year 2010. The DHS reports State Emergency Relief (SER) payments were made to help 7,099 indigent burials. Of that number, 125 were unclaimed bodies. Since the new budget will limit (SER) funds to unclaimed bodies only, this will mean the amount of funds used for indigent burials will drop from about $4-million to an estimated $4-thousand. May 23, 2011, 9:33 a.m.: More efficient early childhood services By Lester Graham • May 16, 2011 Governor Rick Snyder says he wants to create a more focused approach to getting young children ready for school. The Governor says Michigan's publicly and privately funded early childhood programs are fragmented, segmented; there's not a coherent effort. Redistricting: drawing the political maps By Lester Graham • May 9, 2011 Michigan Geographic Framework Listen Listening... / States must redraw congressional and legislative maps to adjust for the shifts in population when the census numbers are released every ten years. This time Michigan lost population while other states gained. That means Michigan will lose a representative in Congress. But there were also shifts of population within the state which means the state house and senate districts will have to be redrawn. Some legislators voting to eliminate their own business taxes By Lester Graham • Apr 27, 2011 Lester Graham / Michigan Radio Listen Listening... / The Michigan legislature and Governor Rick Snyder are considering a new tax structure for the state. It would cut the state budget and shift some of the tax burden from businesses to individuals. The Governor has said up to two-thirds of Michigan's businesses might not have to file a state tax return at all. Reporters Lester Graham and Bridget Bodnar with Michigan Watch learned that means some legislators who own businesses could be voting to cut their own taxes. State Police want big bucks for public documents By Lester Graham & • Apr 20, 2011 photo by Vincent Duffy The Michigan Freedom of Information Act is 34-years-old this month. According to a ranking by the Better Government Association, it's one of the stronger Freedom of Information laws in the United States. Shifting money away from schools By Lester Graham • Apr 8, 2011 Jennifer Guerra / Michigan Radio Governor Rick Snyder's budget proposal would change how we fund public schools. That change would start with a cut to schools at a time when the School Aid Fund is growing. The School Aid Fund is one of the main sources of money for K-12 public schools. Since it was established by the 1908 Michigan Constitution and even though in the 1963 Constitution "higher education" was added, the money in the School Aid Fund only has been used to pay for educating public school children. That is, until this year. The last legislature 'borrowed' a couple of hundred-million dollars from the School Aid Fund to give to community colleges. I say 'borrowed,' but there's no indication that it's going to be paid back. Federal stimulus money helped make up the difference. But for this coming fiscal year, there is no more federal stimulus money. What will the 'Michigan reinvention' look like? By Lester Graham • Mar 15, 2011 Bill Rice / Flickr It was only a few months ago that Republican Rick Snyder and the majority Republican legislature were voted into office. Snyder said on the campaign trail that he wanted to change the way state government works. He promised to "re-invent" Michigan. People liked the sound of that. As he's revealed the path to his vision of Michigan, not everyone is pleased. (sound of protestors in capitol) Union members, Democrats, public employees, retirees and the poor have been holding rallies at the capitol about as often as the legislature meets in Lansing. Taxing the working poor By Lester Graham • Mar 10, 2011 Bill Rice / Flickr When the budget was introduced, it was left to Lieutenant Governor Brian Calley to explain some of the details. Among them was the Governor's proposal to eliminate the Earned Income Tax Credit, a move that would take away a tax break for the state's working poor. State income tax on pensions By Lester Graham • Mar 4, 2011 Flickr When he presented his budget to the legislature, Governor Snyder explained part of the shared sacrifice would be taxing public and private pensions. There is no state income tax on pensions right now. The Governor noted, retirees still use government services. He also said there are some retirees who are still working, paying the current 4.35% in state income taxes. He said taxing pensions is a matter of fairness to people of retirement age who are still working. Eliminating business tax credits By Lester Graham • Mar 3, 2011 Alan Cleaver / Flickr Update 12:21 p.m. The State of Michigan will have to honor some tax credits for years to come because of contractual obligations. In a speech today, Governor Snyder indicated over the next four years, the state was on the hook for $2-billion dollars in credits. About $500-million of that is in next year's budget. March 2nd, 8:23a.m. Governor Snyder says his approach to taxes in Michigan is "simple, fair, and efficient." One way the Governor wants to make the tax structure more fair is by eliminating all tax credits for business. It's a controversial move which surprised many people in Lansing. More cuts to public universities? By Lester Graham • Feb 24, 2011 user dig downtown detroit / Flickr For eight years, year after year, the state of Michigan has been cutting the money it distributes among the 15 public universities. "We haven't been chiseling around the edges. We haven't been making minor adjustments. We've been really making huge cuts." How did we get in this budget mess? By Lester Graham • Feb 18, 2011 You can talk about tax structure and decisions by governors and legislatures in the past, but above all, the state's financial difficulties have to do with the economy. Because Michigan has been heavily reliant on manufacturing, specifically the automakers and their many suppliers, Michigan has been hit especially hard. Mitch Bean is the Director of the House Fiscal Agency. Basically, he's one of the economists who keeps the legislature informed about the economy and the state's budget. Money and tips to avoid foreclosure By Lester Graham • Feb 18, 2011 User thinkpanama / Flickr Nationwide and in Michigan the rate of foreclosures has slowed a bit in recent months. But Realty Trac experts say that's less a sign of a robust housing recovery and more a sign that lenders have become bogged down. They're reviewing procedures, resubmitting paperwork and formulating legal arguments related to accusations of improper foreclosure processing, the so-called robo-signing scandal. Fracking leak in Michigan By Lester Graham • Feb 11, 2011 Since producing a Michigan Watch series on the "hydraulic fracking" boom in Michigan last September and October on Michigan Radio, not much has been said or done about this method of drilling for natural gas. A leak has now put the issue back in the news. The Associated reports a leak has shut down a drilling operation not too far from Traverse City. It's not yet clear whether it will damage underground water sources. It does raise questions as to whether Michigan regulations are adequate to protect the environment while exploiting the gas reserves in the state. Economic gardening? What's that? By Lester Graham • Feb 11, 2011 Photo courtesy of Inforummichigan.org and Peplin Photographic (larrypeplin.com) When the Governor gave his State of the State speech, I was standing on the crowded floor of the House of Representatives. Governor Rick Snyder outlined his plans to get Michigan back to work. We all listened as he said the Michigan Economic Development Corporation would lead the way. "The MEDC will recalibrate its efforts and become a better partner with these regional groups to enhance economic gardening, talent enhancement, and support service to companies." State of Michigan giving more in tax breaks than it collects By Lester Graham & • Jan 21, 2011 I was sifting through the many reports by Gongwer News Service. Gongwer covers just about everything that happens in and around the Lansing capitol complex. What caught my eye was an article entitled "State Estimates Tax Expenditures of $33.8 Billion for FY'11." I read through the Gongwer story which linked to a 111-page report by the Michigan Department of Treasury. Medicaid-welfare cuts could cost Michigan By Lester Graham • Jan 19, 2011 MDHS There are close to 10-million people in Michigan. And almost three-million are now receiving some kind of state assistance. Half of them are children. "A lot of them are my next-door neighbors. It's bad in Michigan right now. And people are in a position where they've never been," says Becky Clark, who works with the Michigan Department of Human Services in Lenawee County. Will cities, villages and townships lose revenue sharing again? By Lester Graham • Jan 17, 2011 Lester Graham / Michigan Radio The money the state sends to local governments is called revenue sharing. But "sharing" might not be quite the right word. It's actually a promise, a deal the state made with the towns we live in. Summer Minnick is with the Michigan Municipal League. It represents the interests of the cities, villages and townships to state leaders. She says decades ago, local governments gave up the power to charge their own sales tax to raise money.

Detroit is not the first major city, town, or county to file for Ch. 9 bankruptcy protection. In 2012 alone, Stockton and San Bernardino also petitioned for bankruptcy protection. Each had hundreds of millions of dollars in debt. From 24/7 Wall St., these are the five largest municipal bankruptcies in U.S. history.
5. Stockton, Calif.
Amount of liabilities: $700 million (est.)
Year filed: 2012
Stockton filed for bankruptcy protection in June 2012 when it had around $700 million of bond debt it could not afford to pay because of other obligations. Of this total, $147 million was owed to employees participating in the state's pension program, CalPERS. When Stockton filed for bankruptcy, it had approximately 292,000 residents, making it the largest municipality by population at the time to undergo reorganization. A year after going to bankrupt, Stockton City Manager Bob Deis told The Record that the city has cut $2.5 billion over 30 years by ending retirement contributions to city employees, negotiating new contracts with labor unions and settling expensive lawsuits, among other factors. An initiative to raise the city's sales tax, which would help Stockton raise revenue, will also be on the ballot in November.
4. San Bernardino, Calif.
Amount of liabilities: $1 billion (est.)
Year filed: 2012
When it filed for bankruptcy in early August 2012, San Bernardino became the third California city after Stockton and resort town Mammoth Lakes to file for bankruptcy in the span of just several months. San Bernardino faced a $46 million budget deficit and over $200 million in unfunded liabilities to retirees for health care and pension obligations, among other problems. In all, the city claimed to owe more than $1 billion in debt. However, a judge has yet to approve the eligibility of the bankruptcy petition. CalPERS, the city's largest creditor, has argued that San Bernardino has failed to disclose key financial information in its bankruptcy filing. At left, San Bernardino City Hall.
3. Orange County, Calif.
Amount of liabilities: $1.7 billion
Year filed: 1994
Orange County declared bankruptcy in December 1994. At the time, the county had adopted an aggressive investment strategy. Attempting to make outsize gains, the county's investment fund had relied heavily on borrowing. The city then used these funds to make bets on interest rate moves and to buy complex financial instruments. The county ended up with roughly $1.7 billion in losses. The county had to lay off 500 workers as part of the cuts it had to accept as a result of its bankruptcy. Former Orange County Treasurer Robert Citron was eventually convicted of defrauding investment fund members and misappropriating assets.
2. Jefferson County, Ala.
Amount of liabilities: $3.2 billion
Year filed: 2011
Jefferson County, Alabama filed for bankruptcy in November 2011 after plans to refinance an estimated $3.2 billion worth of sewer bonds fell apart. At the time, Jefferson County's overall debt was $4.2 billion. The county is currently taking steps to exit bankruptcy this year, with a plan to raise sewer rates by approximately 7.4% annually for the next four years and nearly 3.5% a year thereafter. The county recently tapped Citigroup Global Markets to help refinance $1.9 billion worth of sewer bonds, while the county commission in June announced plans with the investment banks, bond insurers and hedge funds who hold much of the county's debt to exit bankruptcy. At left, the central bus terminal in Birmingham, Ala. in Jefferson County.
1. Detroit, Mich.
Amount of liabilities: $18.5 billion (est.)
Year filed: 2013
With more than $18 billion in liabilities, Detroit's recent bankruptcy filing is the largest in U.S. history. Detroit's problems are hardly new. The state appointed noted bankruptcy lawyer Kevyn Orr as emergency manager for the city in March, giving him the authority to sell its assets and restructure its labor deals. But already at the time, the situation looked bleak. Orr himself described Detroit as "the Olympics of restructuring," and whatever hopes there were of saving the city were quickly wiped away as unions, retirees and lenders all declined to make concessions. Meanwhile, because of its shrinking population and past financial mistakes Detroit could not cover its debt using tax revenue. Read more about the largest municipal bankruptcies at 24/7 Wall St.

Staying at Tarik hotel.
Taxi ?
Train or Bus M 127 Does anyone know where bus M127 leaves from at airport.
any info appreciated.
Tarik hotel. is on the Paseo down at the beach The train will take you to Torremolinos station which is up in the center and would involve a walk (all down hill).
The airport bus will not take you to Hotel Tarik ,It's about €20
The bus leaves a little down from the taxi stand.
Hi decaff,
The M-127 is a bus that runs only in Fuengirola.
The airport bus, the M-128, no longer appears on the CTMAM website (http://siu.ctmam.ctan.es/es/lineas.php)
Even when the bus was running, as ab2pcs pointed out, the bus turns off the paseo well before the Hotel Tarik. However the local L-2 bus goes down Av de Lido and turns onto the paseo; there is a bus stop just past the Tarik Hotel. Here's a photo: https:/…5836044462324696018
I can't find a timetable for the L-2.
A taxi from Torremolinos station to your hotel would cost about 6 Euros.
I too would jump on the train to Torremolinos Centro then the L2 - quicker, easier, more reliable and cheap too :)
Here is the train timetable:
Here is the route for the L2:
and here are the times (scroll right down to the bottom)
CB: Is it just me, or is the link to the L-2 route broken?
The L2 link works okay for me Col
I think it's you Col haha!! Works fine for me too, i usually check before posting... give it a kick then try again ;-)
several posters have said the 128 is not running.
It Is or at least was yesterday.
Hi manzana,
The service doesn't appear on the CTMAM website, so I (obviously incorrectly) assumed that it had been withdrawn.
Does anyone know if you purchase the bono ticket for the L2 bus, from the kiosk by TIO, i have been using the bus card for the coastal buses for a few years, but never purchased this one..also what are the requirements needed to obtain the retired/special card, or is this for residents only..x

San Francisco, CA (Sports Network) - Junior Lake scored the go-ahead tally on San Francisco first baseman Brandon Belt's two-run fielding error in the top of the ninth inning, as the Chicago Cubs edged the Giants, 3-2, Friday in the opener of a three-game set at AT&T Park.
San Francisco took a 2-1 lead in the seventh on Jeff Francoeur's two-run single before Santiago Casilla stranded Cubs on second and third in the eighth to get the ball to closer Sergio Romo.
Romo (3-5) served up a leadoff single to pinch-hitter Julio Borbon before walking pinch-hitter Dioner Navarro. The right-hander bounced back with a strikeout of David DeJesus and then got Lake to ground into a fielder's choice to leave runners on the corners with two outs.
Anthony Rizzo then fouled off a pair of 3-2 pitches before ripping a grounder toward first that snuck past Belt and trickled down the right-field line, allowing Borbon and Lake to score for a one-run lead.
Kevin Gregg worked around a leadoff single in the bottom half to secure his 20th save of the season and make a winner out of Matt Guerrier (4-4), who tossed 1 1/3 perfect innings of relief work.
Starlin Castro was credited with the lone RBI for the Cubs, who won for the third time in five games, despite going 1-for-11 with runners in scoring position.
San Francisco starter Matt Cain yielded just one run on six hits while striking out seven over seven frames, but the Giants were unable to hold on late as they fell for the fifth time in their last six games.
"It's always hard at home when you lose a game like this, especially the way we came back," San Francisco manager Bruce Bochy said. "In this game you have to put it behind you and come out here and hopefully wash it off, especially a player like Belt."
The only run Cain gave up came in the sixth came when Nate Schierholtz smacked a one-out double and scored on Castro's single to center to put the Cubs in front.
Chicago starter Edwin Jackson did his part for much of the night, limiting the Giants to two hits over six scoreless innings before running into trouble in the seventh.
Pablo Sandoval got things going with a one-out single before Hunter Pence doubled in front of an intentional walk to Belt.
With the bases loaded and one out, Francoeur punched a single into shallow right-field to score Sandoval and Pence for a 2-1 lead. Belt tried to score when Schierholtz's throw from right sailed past the catcher, but he was tagged out by Jackson between third and home to leave the margin at one.
"For us to fight back in the ninth inning like that was huge," Jackson said. "Great way to start a series with a comeback win like that."
Chicago had lost five straight at AT&T Park and won in San Francisco for the
first time since Aug. 30, 2011 ... Prior to the game, the Cubs traded
outfielder Alfonso Soriano to the New York Yankees in exchange for Corey
Black, a minor league pitcher ... The Giants acquired minor league pitcher
Guillermo Moscoso from the Cubs for a player to be named later or cash
considerations prior to the game ... Lake went 0-for-5 to snap a seven-game
hit streak to begin his career.
