With the continued growth of the Internet, and the increasing permeation of content-generating devices in society, the sheer amount of multimedia content available is staggering. Mobile telephones, for example, allow easy generation of digital photographs or videos in almost any environment; desktop computers and readily-available software allow almost anyone to create movies and post them online. Meanwhile, more traditional media outlets, such as newspapers, radio stations, and television stations, are making their content increasingly available through digital distribution channels as well.
Search engines and social networking sites provide some means to find this content, as well as motivating additional content creation. However, while the means and opportunity for making content has been increasingly available, few advances have been made in presenting this wealth of content to a user, in any manner beyond than a simple list.
Detailed herein is a technology which, among other things, displays content in the context of a geographic map. When content is received, access to the content can be enabled through interaction with an appropriate geographic map.
In one approach to this technology, multimedia content with an associated geographic tag is received. The geographic tag is used to select an appropriate geographic map for that content. Access to that content can then be obtained through interaction with the geographic map.
In another approach to this technology, a system for displaying content is described as including a receiver, a geographic categorizer, a map generator, and a graphical user interface (GUI). The receiver receives multimedia content. The geographic categorizer examines a geographic tag associated with the multimedia content. The map generator uses the geographic tag to select an appropriate geographic tag. The GUI displays the map, and allows a displayed map to be used to access the multimedia content.
This Summary is provided to introduce a selection of concepts in a simplified form that are further described below in the Detailed Description. This Summary is not intended to identify key features or essential features of the claimed subject matter, nor is it intended to be used to limit the scope of the claimed subject matter.
The accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in and form a part of this specification, illustrate embodiments and, together with the description, serve to explain the principles of the claimed subject matter:
Reference will now be made in detail to several embodiments. While the subject matter will be described in conjunction with the alternative embodiments, it will be understood that they are not intended to limit the claimed subject matter to these embodiments. On the contrary, the claimed subject matter is intended to cover alternative, modifications, and equivalents, which may be included within the spirit and scope of the claimed subject matter as defined by the appended claims.
Furthermore, in the following detailed description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the claimed subject matter. However, it will be recognized by one skilled in the art that embodiments may be practiced without these specific details or with equivalents thereof. In other instances, well-known methods, procedures, components, and circuits have not been described in detail as not to unnecessarily obscure aspects and features of the subject matter.
Portions of the detailed description that follows are presented and discussed in terms of a method. Although steps and sequencing thereof are disclosed in a figure herein (e.g.,
Some portions of the detailed description are presented in terms of procedures, steps, logic blocks, processing, and other symbolic representations of operations on data bits that can be performed on computer memory. These descriptions and representations are the means used by those skilled in the data processing arts to most effectively convey the substance of their work to others skilled in the art. A procedure, computer-executed step, logic block, process, etc., is here, and generally, conceived to be a self-consistent sequence of steps or instructions leading to a desired result. The steps are those requiring physical manipulations of physical quantities. Usually, though not necessarily, these quantities take the form of electrical or magnetic signals capable of being stored, transferred, combined, compared, and otherwise manipulated in a computer system. It has proven convenient at times, principally for reasons of common usage, to refer to these signals as bits, values, elements, symbols, characters, terms, numbers, or the like.
It should be borne in mind, however, that all of these and similar terms are to be associated with the appropriate physical quantities and are merely convenient labels applied to these quantities. Unless specifically stated otherwise as apparent from the following discussions, it is appreciated that throughout the present invention, discussions utilizing terms such as "accessing," "writing," "including," "storing," "transmitting," "traversing," "associating," "identifying" or the like, refer to the action and processes of a computer system, or similar electronic computing device, that manipulates and transforms data represented as physical (electronic) quantities within the computer system's registers and memories into other data similarly represented as physical quantities within the computer system memories or registers or other such information storage, transmission or display devices.
Computing devices, such as computing system environment 10, typically include at least some form of computer readable media. Computer readable media can be any available media that can be accessed by a computing device. By way of example, and not limitation, computer readable medium may comprise computer storage media and communication media. Computer storage media includes volatile and nonvolatile, removable and non-removable media implemented in any method or technology for storage of information such as computer readable instructions, data structures, program modules, or other data. Computer storage media includes, but is not limited to, RAM, ROM, EEPROM, flash memory or other memory technology, CD-ROM, digital versatile discs (DVD) or other optical storage, magnetic cassettes, magnetic tape, magnetic disk storage or other magnetic storage devices, or any other medium which can be used to store the desired information and which can be accessed by a computing device. Vacation media typically embodies computer readable instructions, data structures, program modules, or other data in a modulated data signals such as a carrier wave or other transport mechanism and includes any information delivery media. The term "modulated data signal" means a signal that has one or more of its characteristics set or changed in such a manner as to encode information in the signal. By way of example, and not limitation, communication media includes wired media such as a wired network or direct-wired connection, and wireless media such as acoustic, RF, infrared, and other wireless media. Combinations of any of the above should also be included within the scope of computer readable media.
Some embodiments may be described in the general context of computer-executable instructions, such as program modules, executed by one or more computers or other devices. Generally, program modules include routines, programs, objects, components, data structures, etc. that perform particular tasks or implement particular abstract data types. Typically the functionality of the program modules may be combined or distributed as desired in various embodiments. In light of the quantity of multimedia content available to anyone with Internet access, it would be useful to have more than just basic search engine results, e.g., a list, to help present that content. Moreover, the user experience can be enriched through new and different means of presenting information and access to multimedia content to the user.
Presented herein are embodiments of systems and methods of presenting or displaying electronic content. In several of these embodiments, electronic content, be it video, audio, web pages, text, or anything else, can be sorted geographically. This geographically sorted content can then be displayed as part of an interactive geographic map. As an example for purposes of illustration, and not as a limitation, a video created in Chicago, in Polish, about the Academy Awards in Los Angeles, might be accessible from a map of the world by clicking on Poland, for the language of the content, or maybe by clicking on Chicago, for the origin of content, or perhaps by clicking on Los Angeles, the geographical focus of the content.

Filtering Geographic Content
With reference now to
With reference now to step 510, input is received from a content source. In different embodiments, this input will take different forms. In some embodiments, this input will have one or more geographic links associated with it; e.g., a video clip of a news broadcast originating in Los Angeles could include some metadata tag, indicating the origin of the clip. Similarly, the nature of the content source will vary, across different embodiments. In one embodiment, for example, the content source is a search engine, and the input represents search results from a search query. Such a query could originate from a user, e.g., the user enters a query, or selects from a list of available queries, and a search engine provides results.
For example, with reference to
With reference now to step 520, a geographic filter is selected. In some embodiments, this geographic filter is used to modify the presentation of the input received from the content source. For example, if the input for a collection of video clips, the clips could have geographic links associated with where they were created, where they were most frequently watched, or where the subject matter of the clip is located. In such a scenario, geographic filters may exist to allow the input to be sorted or displayed by any of these geographic factors.
With reference to
With reference now to step 530, the input is displayed on a map, according to the selected geographic filter and with geographic tags associated with the content. The nature of the displaying end of the map will vary, across different embodiments. For example, in one embodiment, content may be displayed over top of a map, such that one or more video clips, for example, may be played over top of the geographic regions from which the originate. In another example embodiment, the map may serve to provide access to the content, with icons or thumbnails or some other interactive feature displayed according to the geographic tag associated with the content and with the geographic filter selected. Such icons could then be used to access the content.
With reference to
Providing Access to Geographically Associated Content

In the depicted embodiment, system 600 also includes geographic categories or 620. System 600, as shown, includes map generator 630. GUI 640 is also included in the depicted embodiment.
With reference now to
With reference now to step 710, content is received. The nature of the received content will vary, across different embodiments, as will the source of the received content. In some embodiments, the content received will include data or metadata associated with the content, which will indicate some geographic link. In other embodiments, no such geographic link will be received. In other embodiments, some portion of the received content may include such links.
For example, with reference to
With reference now to step 715, the received content is analyzed, and a geographic tag is assigned to the content. In some embodiments which include the step, the content can be evaluated, in order to establish some geographic link or information, with respect to that content. For example, text or audio content could be evaluated, in order to attempt to determine what language is used predominantly within the content. As an additional example, the geographic origin of some content can be determined, based on other available data, e.g., IP addresses. Some embodiments omit the step.
For example, with reference to
With reference now to step 720, one or more geographic tags associated with the content are examined. In some embodiments, such as some of those which include step 715, the geographic tags associated with the content may already be known. In other embodiments, some data or metadata tag, or other means of indicating geographic data associated with content, are examined.
For example, with reference to
With reference now to step 730, an appropriate geographic map is selected for the content. In some embodiments, this process involves using the geographic tags for the content to select maps appropriate for that content. In some embodiments, one or more appropriate maps may be retrieved from a storage device. In some embodiments, one or more maps may be freshly generated. In some embodiments, a combination of these approaches is utilized. In other embodiments, other methods of accessing or generating a map may be utilized.
For example, with reference to
With reference now to step 740, the map is displayed, and allows access to the content through interaction. In some embodiments, an approach similar to the described behavior of GUI 200 is utilized, with access to the content available through interactive icons displayed on top of the map. In other embodiments, an approach similar to the described behavior of GUI 250 is utilized, with some or all of the content laid on top of geographic the appropriate portions of the map. In other embodiments, different approaches to both map display and content interaction are utilized.
For example, with reference to
Although the subject matter has been described in language specific to structural features and/or methodological acts, it is to be understood that the subject matter defined in the appended claims is not necessarily limited to the specific features or acts described above. Rather, the specific features and acts described above are disclosed as example forms of implementing the claims.

HSBC "lift" by Grey London
Agency: Grey London
Rating: 5.0
By James Swift, campaignlive.co.uk, Tuesday, 23 April 2013 11:40AM
The agency has won the account after a contested pitch, handled by AAR, against four other agencies.
Johnny Fearless' task will be to develop a new strategy and creative campaign for the Imperial War Museum London – the flagship branch. The museum, which is closed for refurbishment until July, is seeking to promote its First World War galleries, which launch next year to mark the centenary of the conflict.
Penny Hamilton, the head of brand and marketing at Imperial War, said: "Johnny Fearless were true to their name, presenting a breadth of work that had both sensitivity and bravery in equal measure".
Other agencies to work with the museum in the past include The Good Agency and Ogilvy & Mather. The latter won awards in 2007 for its poster work for the museums.

Montgomery to play two shows at Allegheny College
Earlier versions of this story misidentified the brother with whom John Michael Montgomery plans to record a new album. He plans to record with his older brother Eddie.
Twenty years have passed since John Michael Montgomery arrived with "Life's a Dance."
The first 10 years were phenomenal with country hit after hit: "I Love the Way You Love Me," "I Swear," "I Can Love You Like That," "Be My Baby Tonight," "Sold," and "Life's a Dance."
The second 10? Not so great. Assorted maladies saddled the Kentucky native from 2000 to 2005. Broken leg. Hip surgery. Tonsillectomy. Impacted wisdom teeth. Neck surgery.
"I felt like Humpty Dumpty," he said, by phone. "Then, I had all these anxieties on top of it."
Montgomery took pills to deal with anxiety and insomnia stemming from years of playing late-night gigs at honky tonks. He finally realized he needed help.
"I had two kids I was trying to raise, and I wanted them to not be raised by a father who was completely out of control and didn't have control of his own life," he said.
"So, I went into rehab. I didn't make a big deal out of it, but I was needing it bad. ... I'm not sure I'd be around if I hadn't made that step to spend 28 days of my life getting away from everything to try to get my life back in order."
Six years later, he's healthy and recharged. Montgomery plans to cut an album with his older brother Eddie, who's one-half of Montgomery Gentry. A live album is coming, one that takes a storyteller approach to how he discovered songs.
One signature hit, for instance, he discovered on a trip to Kentucky's Herrington Lake with songwriter Frank Myers while they celebrated Montgomery's first No. 1 hit.
"We were celebrating so much we weren't getting any writing done," he said. "So, he handed me a cassette tape. He said, 'I had this song in my back pocket a long time. The publishing company doesn't even pitch it anymore.'"
That song, he swears, was "I Swear." You'll hear that and plenty of his other 18 Top 5 hits Sunday. Montgomery said he was always an "absolute hard ass" about only recording songs he liked. So, he never tires of singing them.
"I still love them as much as when I first cut them," he said. "That makes it a pleasure, 20 years later, to go on stage."
North of Mason Dixon will open.

Originally written on Pro Sports Daily | Last updated 11/10/12
LOS ANGELES – In the span of a few short weeks, the Los Angeles Lakers went from blockbuster to lackluster, from dream team to nightmare. In the span of four quarters -- and with a new coach -- everything became right in LaLa Land once more. Los Angeles cruised to the 101-77 win over Golden State at Staples Center on Friday night, just hours after firing head coach Mike Brown and replacing him with interim coach Bernie Bickerstaff. As rumors swirled about possible big-ticket replacements -- the names Phil Jackson and Mike D'Antoni bandied about as potential additions -- Los Angeles set to work on its second big win of the young season, after a 1-4 start and a 0-8 preseason. The main gripe during the Los Angeles Lakers' lackluster 2012-13 start had been about the team's stagnant offense under Mike Brown. Subtract Brown, though, and it turns out the defense responds. Los Angeles held Golden State to 29-of-85 shooting, forced 18 turnovers and maintained a 58-47 rebounding adv...

A social experiment carried out by The Pilion Trust found that the public will tell someone off for saying 'fuck the poor', but are unlikely to stop to help the very same group.
Created by Publicis, the campaign saw a man wearing a billboard saying 'fuck the poor' on the streets of London, and being told off by multiple passersby.
However, when he flipped the sign over to read 'help the poor, no-one stopped to give money. This is promoted through the campaign strapline: "We know you care. Please care enough to give."
Savvas Panas, the chief executive of the Pilion Trust, said: "As a charity we have been severely affected by the nationwide decrease in charitable donations (20 per cent) and government cuts (60 per cent). We understand that some may be shocked by this footage. We are more offended however, that people across the United Kingdom are living in adverse poverty."
The campaign footage is being unveiled on YouTube today, and will be in cinemas from later this month.
Publicis ECD Andy Bird said: "The Pilion Trust is a small front line charity without the budget to make itself heard in paid-for media, and also loses out on High Street donations, so we helped them to make a film that highlighted the discrepancy between peoples attitude when confronted with injustice and bigotry about poverty, and then their apathy when asked directly to help do something about it - donate."
Problem is, we can't be sure where money we might give goes. I've been conned many times by 'homeless' who weren't! Seen food banks and benefits abused etc. Whereas the public, for example, were very generous donating to little girl who needed surgery denied her by the Nhs. So don't say 'we don't care.' We do. Just don't like being mugged.

Seen food banks and benefits abused etc. Whereas the public are very generous for example, donating for little girl who needed surgery denied her by the NHS. So don't say, 'we don't care' as we often do care. Just don't like being mugged.
I do give to the poor and think it's really important to support those who are struggling but certainly wouldn't be giving to a charity that opted for these tactics. This could reinforce the message that we shouldn't help the poor. Feels a but like Publicis designed this for more personal PR rather than for the benefit of their clients!
Amanda, this is actually a completely ethical and valid experiment. The simple fact is that your dislike for this "Tactic" as you call it is that it brings to light a rather displeasing point about humans and what we will do in a particular situation. It reveals that we as humans are quick to pass judgment upon others because judgement costs us nothing. Words are just words (this excludes situations where an opinion could change our favor with others, such as for politicians). However, when it comes to giving aid for the same issue, we are hesitant because it then costs us personally. Its not a dishonest campaign. It does not lie about anything. as the offensiveness of it was the point of the experiment, it is justified. And i don't even understand why anyone is bringing up whether the ad was PR or not for the company that helped the charity make the footage. Calling it PR doesn't change what the experiment proved, make the point any less important, or invalidate anything.
Furthermore, why are you offended by a charity that uses this? Is it because they are throwing in your face the fact that people would probably not help? because it makes you face an uncomfortable truth? Feeling emotionally blackmailed? Maybe you would prefer they just plainly ask you for money, so that they don't throw those pesky truths and facts at you.@Amand73325
Thought provoking, but a PR stunt for sure...
It was done to try to wake the sheeple up IMO, The words on that a board " fuck the poor" is what this current government have done with their welfare reforms , It's why so many are in poverty today,
I just saw it as a social experiment to guage public reactions? People were indignant seeing the F*** the Poor sign, but when it reversed and said Help the Poor, there wasn't as much input. ie, not many gave. Understandable for reasons I gave before. Most of us like to know our money is going to bona fide causes.
As a marketing campaign or PR tactic it seems to have been highly effective - especially considering the number of articles written, and coverage this received.
Whilst perhaps difficult to measure, I'm sure that some of that publicity would ultimately translate to donations. At a minimum, it'll make a few people think twice before skipping the charity box.

Maruyama Park - Eastern Kyoto
Maruyama Park is a park on the eastern side of Kyoto, near Gion, and behind Yasaka Temple. This is known as Kyoto's best place to view cherry blossoms in the spring, with attention especially focused on its huge weeping cherry tree. The park also has paths, playgrounds, and koi ponds.
Besides Yasaka Temple to the west, the park is surrounded by several other temples, the most famous are Chion-in and Shoren-in Temples to the north, and Chorakuji Temple to the south.
Maruyama Park
Maruyama Park is a large and park in the center of many of Higashiyama's famous sites! Most people enter from Yasaka Shrine, but Chion-in Temple also borders it and Kodaiji is not far. Within the park itself is a statue of Sakamoto Ryoma and Shintaro, a nice pond, some vendors, and many places to sit and relax. In the evenings, there are often performers that do magic tricks here. It's fun to watch, if you have the time.
The park is also famous for its large weeping cherry tree, which is lit up at night during the cherry blossom season. There are many vendors in the park, creating a nice festive atmosphere!
Entrance is free.

Maruyama Park
The Maruyama Park is located in between many temples and is a good place to have a break in between all the site seeing and temple visits. You can have picnic in the park or take a break in one nice cafe, as the Chourakukan cafe just by one of the entries to this park.
Maruyama Koen
This park is famous for watching the cherry blossom viewing (hanami).
The centerpiece of the park is a tall shidarezakura (weeping cherry tree), which gets lit up in the night.
There's also these interesting statues of Ryoma Sakamoto and Shintaro Nakaoka.
These 2 samurai were quite influential figures during Meiji Restoration in 19th century.
A walk in the park...
Maruyama-koen is at the eastern end of Shijo Dori, behind the Yasaka Shrine. In the park you can see a solitary old cherry tree. I was lucky enough to time a short 2 hour visit to Kyoto in 2007 with the tree being in full blossom. This tree is very old and venerated by the locals. Make sure you get your photo taken with it in the background, if you are lucky enough to be in Maruyama park when it is flowering.
I should add that when this tree and the other sakura are in full bloom, there is a real festival feel in Maruyama park with hanami picnickers and food stalls lining the paths.

Maruyama Park
Maruyama-koen is a busy park next to the Chion-in Temple and the Yasaka Shrine. During the cherry blossom, most of the green spaces are covered with blue blankets and reserved for Japanese people doing blossom viewing. The centrepiece is a massive weeping cherry tree, which is lit from below at night.
Outside the sakura season, the park is supposed to be a good place to escape the bustle of the city and wander around gardens, ponds and souvenir shops.

Sociology seeks to understand human behavior by studying how individuals connect to the groups and institutions in which they live. Sociologists analyze the interrelationship of social structures with political, economic, and cultural forces, from the micro to the macro level. As a discipline, sociology provides students with the conceptual and analytic tools to make sense of complex social structures in a rapidly changing global environment. Brown's Sociology department brings together a dynamic group of scholars with international reputations for outstanding achievement in a range of important research areas -- social demography, health and medicine, environmental justice and environmental change, development, politics and democracy, urban and spatial analysis, and organizations and occupations.

When we think of Black Friday, many of us think of the heavy mark-downs on popular electronic items -- huge-screen TVs, digital cameras, e-readers, etc. However, clothing is usually the top-selling product on Black Friday (though consumer electronics were the second best selling product in 2011), and 2011 proved to be no exception. Outside of clothing, however, what were the top-selling products of Black Friday 2011?
The Bestselling Black Friday Products of 2011
Apple iPad Apple's app-friendly tablet ruled holiday wish lists in 2011. Though Apple traditionally doesn't offer huge discounts over the holiday season, the company did reduce the iPad price by about $40 in addition to offering free shipping on orders over $50. As a result of Apple product sales on Black Friday, app sales also showed a significant rise.
Amazon Kindle 2011 was truly the year of the Kindle. Amazon made history in the week after Christmas after e-book sales overtook printed book sales for the first time. The spike was largely due to new Kindle owners looking for material to stock their new e-reader -- and many of those Kindles were bought on Black Friday. Other e-readers, including Barnes & Noble's NOOK Color, also experienced high sales on Black Friday.
Apple iPhone 4 Though Android smartphones also sold well, the Apple iPhone was still the most popular smartphone on Black Friday 2011.
iPods and iPod accessories Apple's mp3 player still reigns supreme on the portable music market, with iPod accessories accounting for a high percentage of sales on Black Friday.
Game station consoles The Nintendo Wii bundle sold very well, as did the Sony PS3 and Microsoft's Xbox 360.
Flatscreen televisions High demand combined with killer cutbacks made flatscreen televisions one of the most popular purchases on Black Friday. The Emerson 32" flatscreen TV was Walmart's bestselling item of Black Friday; the Samsung 32" and 55" LCD televisions were the second and third most popular items looked up on the PriceGrabber iPhone app.
Bargain-priced appliances Both Walmart and Target experienced success with budget-priced appliances marked down to as little as $3 per appliance.
Digital cameras Doorbuster sales on digital cameras were immensely popular, as were sales for both the Canon EOS Rebel T2i and the Canon Powershot SD1400 IS Point and Shoot.
Blip Toys Squinkies Bubble Pack Though this toy may seem oddly specific to the non-parenting set, Squinkies were the must-have toy of 2011. The trend is not expected to continue as strongly in 2012.
How many of these 2011 trends will continue in 2012? Nearly all on the list are expected to be top sellers again this year -- 2012 electronics sales so far show no signs of slowing.

egowen wrote:I guess my question was not quite as clear as I intended. I've noticed that using the web interface to update a member's address is not sufficient to cause their records to be moved from the ward even when the change in address put the family way outside the ward boundaries.
egowen wrote:Updating the family location in MLS under the Move Out link seems to be the only mechanism that moves families from one ward to another.
egowen wrote:Once that is accomplished and a Send/Receive operation is completed, the records are removed from the losing ward's MLS. The web based Tools / Leader Resources / Membership / Member List (Only available to ward leadership) is updated quite quickly but the Tools / Directory and Tools / Maps does not get updated at all quickly.
egowen wrote: I'd like to know is how frequently the member accessible directory and maps databases are updated based on changes to MLS.
We have had the following scenario several times. A diligent home teacher reports one of his families has moved and provides the new address. The MLS move out operation is completed and the home teacher is told that the families records had been moved. The home teacher looks at the member accessible directory or maps application and calls back to say that the family is still listed and the clerk didn't do what he said he had. Sometimes they are using a smartphone app and we remind them that their local copy of the database is only updated when they tell the smartphone app to fetch a new copy of the database but sometimes that does not work because the database that supports the web based access and smartphone apps has not yet been updated.
egowen wrote:Technology is wonderful when it works the way we think it should.
aebrown wrote:There is no way to update a member's address using the Maps website. I think you're assuming that changing the household marker's position somehow changes the address. That is not the case. Placing the marker is simply the way that you help make the geocoding of the address more precise. It does not change the address.
aebrown wrote:That's not my experience. The Directory gets updated very quickly -- I don't know precisely how fast, but it's much quicker than a day. I'm guessing it's a matter of a few hours or even quicker. I do know that the speed of the move depends on the specificity of the data that is supplied -- if you are pushing records out, the accuracy of the description of the new address and new ward makes a big difference, and if you are pulling records in, then the accuracy of identifying the person (supplying birth date, full name, and even MRN) also makes a difference. I don't look at the Maps nearly as often as the Directory, so I can't comment on that with as much confidence.

Wonderful story.
Rockies to share postseason payout with Coolbaugh's widow
ESPN.com news services
Besides their surprising 14-1 finish to the season, the Colorado Rockies are giving baseball fans another reason to cheer for them this postseason.
The widow of Rockies Double-A coach Mike Coolbaugh, who died after getting hit by a line drive earlier this season, will be granted a full share of the team's playoff winnings after a team vote.
Rockies manager Clint Hurdle said the gesture spoke volumes about the quality of the character in their locker room.
"I was passed on the information that they voted Amanda Coolbaugh a share, a full share, which I found speaks to their awareness, speaks to their passion, speaks to every good thing about them," Hurdle said.
Amanda Coolbaugh, who is 32 and pregnant, won't attend Saturday's Game 3 of the NLDS between the Phillies and Rockies at Coors Field. But her two sons, Joseph, 5, and Jacob, 3, will be in attendance and will throw out the first pitch.
"When I heard about what the players did, I almost cried," Rockies general manager Dan O'Dowd said. "This was the players' idea. I think it's remarkable."

Police return to victim's homeJanuary 31,2013
SHEFFIELD — Vermont State Police investigating the abduction and killing of a Sheffield grandmother more than two years ago have returned to her home to search the property.
Mary "Pat" O'Hagan, 78, disappeared from her home in September 2010. Her body was found nearly a month later by hunters in a remote area 10 miles away.
No arrests have been made in her killing.
WCAX-TV reported that detectives searched her property Tuesday to see if anything may have been overlooked.
In November a Vermont state police detective testified that Michael Norrie, a Sheffield man held on other charges, "was confessing to part of the murder" when he stopped cooperating with authorities.
