New Turn In China-India Relations
If there's one thing that can be said confidently about Chinese President Hu Jintao's visit to India, it's that it surpassed some of the upbeat expectations it had raised. The true measure of its success doesn't lie in the two governments' commitment to doubling their bilateral trade to $40 billion by 2010, nor even in the remarkably large number (13) of agreements they signed on issues as varied as science, space exploration, agriculture, education, tourism and nuclear energy. Rather, it lies in the fact that they confirmed they have more in common than earlier imagined, and resolved to build a broad-horizon relationship in a remarkably relaxed manner.
Mr Hu came here against an unfortunate backdrop: Ambassador Sun Yuxi's statement reiterating China's claim to Arunachal Pradesh. But the negative effect of this undiplomatic repetition of Beijing's old position was soon wiped out. Mr Hu made it clear that for Beijing, the significance of the Sino-Indian relationship is not merely bilateral, nor defined by political expediency. It views it "from a strategic and long-term perspective". He used these very words in describing Sino-Pakistan relations, which have traditionally been far closer.
India had four major concerns arising from recent developments: China's position on common river waters, especially the Brahmaputra, which it is allegedly diverting; Beijing's commitment to delinking its relations with Pakistan from those with India; its likely stand on Asian-level cooperation involving India; and China's attitude to the United States-India nuclear deal and to India's claim to a permanent seat on the United Nations Security Council.
All four concerns were addressed during Mr Hu's visit. India and China agreed to set up an expert-level committee on four rivers, including the Brahmaputra. Mr Hu repeatedly emhasised that the principle of separation in China's relations with India and Pakistan remains important and informs the wide-ranging agenda that New Delhi and Beijing have agreed to pursue.
China also supported India's proposals for greater coordination between the "BCIM countries" (Bangladesh, China, India, Myanmar) and the so-called East Asia Initiative. This means China is prepared to accommodate India in Southeast and East Asia as a dialogue partner.
Most important, Mr Hu assured Indian leaders that China would not stand in the way of getting the US-India nuclear deal approved in the 45-nation Nuclear Suppliers' Group, of which it is a member. Nor does China oppose India's Security Council bid, although matters are complicated by India's G-4 strategy: China doesn't want Japan to be a permanent Council member.
It would be naive to expect China to proactively recommend the nuclear deal to the NSG-unless the Group makes a generic, not India-specific, exception to its nuclear commerce norms. In all likelihood, China will wait to see how other Group members react before it reveals its own position. But it's not insignificant that China won't lead the opposition to India-as it did after the 1998 nuclear tests. It's equally important to note that a Sino-Indian civilian nuclear cooperation agreement would have been inconceivable only a few years ago.
Evidently, China has decided to change its earlier strategy to contain India because it recognises India's growing global importance and influence. It's in this light that we must see Mr Hu's pronouncements during his public address in Delhi, where he stressed India and China's "common interests" in democratising international relations and "developing multilateral cooperation for creating a multi-polar world." Mr Hu said China doesn't seek "any selfish gains" in South Asia, but wants to play "a constructive role" in promoting peace and development in the region.
He also said: "No matter what happens in the international environment, China will remain a champion of peace, development and cooperation. It will continue to pursue an independent foreign policy of peace, peaceful development, and … win-win progress." He said the development endeavours of China and India are "not mutually exclusive. China sincerely welcomes India's development, supports a greater role for India in international affairs, and sincerely wishes India even greater achievements in the years to come."
It's hard to dismiss all this as mere rhetoric calculated to deceive India and the rest of the world. The Chinese leadership is acutely aware that the whole wide world is watching China and India as emerging Great Powers which are home to two-fifths of humanity. A summit meeting between them today makes headline news the world over. We must wait and watch how China conducts its actual diplomacy with India in the near future. But there is little doubt that its foreign policy stance has already shifted significantly.
This opens up a historic opportunity for India and China to transform their relationship from one of rivalry in the past, to a fruitful partnership today. India would be ill-advised to play a "balance-of-power game" with China, as it is being urged to do by our pitiably pro-US strategic experts who have no compunctions in demanding that India enter to into a junior partnership with Washington, which will, among other things, contain and counter China.
This is not to argue that all's well with the Sino-Indian relationship. Several outstanding disputes and disagreements remain. The border dispute cannot be wished away. But it's undeniable that India and China are closer than ever to resolving it. While they must make a sincere attempt at its resolution, India should not allow the dispute to come in the way of deepening its relations with China in other areas-including trade, investment, cultural exchanges, science and technology collaboration, and greater people-to-people interaction.
India shouldn't be overly concerned at the growth of Sino-Pakistan relations and Mr Hu's signing of 18 separate agreements in Islamabad. China and Pakistan have long seen themselves as strategic partners or allies and had a qualitatively special military relationship. This is now reflected in China's offer to sell airborne warning and control systems (AWACS) to Pakistan, presumably to help it match India's growing capacities, themselves aided by Israel and the US. India too has its allies, supporters and arms providers.
We are often reminded by China-baiters that China probably transferred some clandestine nuclear technology to Pakistan in the 1980s. But China also sold heavy water to India, not to speak of enriched uranium for Tarapur. It's unlikely that today's China, keen to appear a "responsible" global player, will want to behave the way it earlier did.
It would be imprudent to let past perceptions and attitudes intrude into the present to a point where no cooperative relationship can be built with China on normal, honourable and respectable terms. Indian policy-makers must also discount the new propaganda which says China is "encircling" India, by building a base at Gwadar in Balochistan. India has too much military strength to feel seriously intimidated by any of this.
Yet ironically, some of those who would like India to sustain a relationship of hostility with China demand that India should follow a completely amoral, realpolitik-based foreign policy approach, exactly like China does! Our best bet lies in Machiavellian tactics based on the "enemy's enemy is a friend" premise. We shouldn't hesitate to emulate China's cynicism-most blatantly visible when Beijing joined hands with the US against the former Soviet Union.
This is a recipe for colossal stupidity and for removing the moral backbone from foreign policy-making altogether. It'll reduce India's complex broad-horizon foreign policy to a petty exercise in promoting the "national interest"-defined totally arbitrarily. India won't earn the respect of the world if it behaves parochially, without reference to universal principles and values. t will damage its own world standing, and in the long run, even its narrow self-interest.
India can choose a radically different approach. It can to bring to bear on its foreign policy all its great strengths: as a long, continuous civilisation; as the world's largest democracy; as one of its most diverse and plural societies; its history as a campaigner for great causes like decolonisation, nuclear disarmament and abolition of apartheid and hegemonism, and an ardent advocate of a New International Economic Order, North-South equality, and fair trade. This will impart a sharp moral edge to India's policy and help it contribute to making the world a better place.
Can our leaders exploit India's growing strength in the world to demand, along with China, alternative global approaches to economic policy and management of the international order? If they develop radical alternative strategies, that could make a huge difference to the world and open up avenues of non-market-based development appropriate to the needs of underprivileged peoples and voiceless countries.
But this demands a radical change in domestic policies in the fist place, including rejection of market fundamentalism, pursuit of principled secularism, and defence and extension of human rights and freedoms. China's rulers are probably too devoted to elitism and market-based strategies to summon up the will to do any of this. But are India's rulers ready?

Building Peace in Permanent War
For those interested in peace and the non-violent resolution of conflict the prognosis is not good. Not just because the war on terror keeps producing enemies with whom, it is said, there is no negotiating, but because the legal and political framework it has engendered has transformed the way in which political violence and armed conflict is understood and managed.
On the Issue of Nuclear Terrorism
It is time for a closer look at the self-serving claim by nuclear weapons states that one of the greatest dangers is that of nuclear weapons being built or falling into the hands of 'terrorist groups'.

PRESCOTT - Waitsburg-Prescott came out early and never let up on rival Dayton in a 2B Southeast soccer match under a bright, early autumn sun Tuesday.
W-P, ranked No. 2 in the state in Class 2B soccer, came out on top, 13-0, aided by Elizabeth Xaudaro's hat trick. Xaudaro scored three goals in the second half.
"That was great," said W-P coach Rick Hamilton.
It was the first hat trick by a girl playing in Class 2B soccer this season, he said.
W-P opened quickly with a goal by Francisco Gonzalez at two minutes in, and footwork by Jose Esquivel, Lino Diaz and Luiz Fernando Torres had them up 5-0 at just over 13 minutes in.
Dayton's Zach Bennett put the first Bulldog shot on goal with six minutes left in the half. In the end, Dayton trailed on shots, 27-2.
Jesse Albarran scored at 27 minutes to lock up the first half, 6-0 W-P.
Xaudaro opened quickly in the second half, scoring at 47 minutes with an assist by Torres.
Dayton keeper Tim Ihle made a save and moved the ball out, but a lack of defenders brought Xaudaro back into the net at 52 minutes of play for her second score, moving W-P's lead to 8-0.
A cornerkick by Jesse Albarran set up Aldair Escalante's first goal around a crowded net moments later, and Xaudaro knocked in her third goal at 67 minutes to move W-P to 10-0 with 13 minutes to play.
Xaudaro left the field to applause from her teammates and coaches with about 10 minutes to play.
Escalante scored twice more, including the capstone point, and Alberto Sandoval scored once to finish the scoring.
"I basically played my varsity for the first five minutes, and then substituted in," Hamilton said.
W-P played Dayton earlier this season and won 19-0, he said.
"I'm proud of them," he said. "The junior varsity did a good job."
Although the score was lopsided, Dayton coach D.J. Frame was proud of his team, too.
"I'm happy with them," he said. "Every week, we get better. It takes time to get there. I tip my hat to W-P - they're talented and they earned it with the time they spend on the ball."
Dayton keeper Ihle, a freshman, made several strong saves and charges from the box.
"He had a good day today," Frame said.
"I love this team," he continued. "They keep getting better. They're new to soccer, and they keep working. They're strong academically and they keep their focus on school. It's always nice as a coach to have a team like that."
Hamilton recognized the skill in Ihle.
"The score could've been more lopsided," Hamilton said. "(Ihle) kept it down."
Esquivel and Mendoza shared W-P goalkeeping duties, deflecting two shots on goal.
The Bulldogs are now 0-4-1, while W-P improves to 4-0-0.

It is hard to describe just how bad things are for the Republican Party. Each day it looks more and more like the Bates Motel from Alfred Hitchcock's classic film Psycho.
Tales from the Trail
Washington Extra – Etch A Sketch
Ah, if life were only like an Etch A Sketch, a little shake would allow us to erase those mistakes and messy parts. But to invoke the magical toy to explain Mitt Romney's presidential hopes might have been a mistake, one worth erasing with a shake.
And then there were two… Republicans exploring presidential bid
Two Republicans have now stepped up to the plate! Well, technically they have stepped up to the plate to consider stepping up to the plate.
Pence in Detroit: A campaign prelude?
Prominent House Republican Mike Pence has been frequently mentioned as a potential 2012 presidential candidate. On Monday, he played the part.
Washington Extra – (Blue) dog days
In the immortal words of Jonathan Swift (paraphrasing Erasmus and Hamlet) "Every dog must have his day."
GOP, conservatives seen dominating November turnout
Bad news, Democrats.
The crowd most likely to vote on Nov. 2 is a lot more Republican and a lot more conservative than the one that gave Congress to the GOP in 1994.
THIS JUST IN — Conservatives Find Home in GOP
The term "conservative Republican" may seem like a truism nowadays. But a new Gallup survey answers some interesting questions about just who those conservatives are — and who they are not.
Republicans create caucus 'to listen' to Tea Party
There are scores of U.S. congressional caucuses that focus on specific issues — including ones to combat hunger and cancer, advance the arts, protect the environment and promote the rights of black, Asian, Hispanic and other Americans.
Mixing it up: Race, Tea Party, NAACP, Palin
The NAACP's resolution calling on leaders of the Tea Party movement to repudiate "racist elements" within its ranks has set off a political firestorm. The civil rights group illustrated its accusations with photographs taken at rallies that show supporters carrying controversial signs criticizing President Barack Obama.
Palin seeks to harness power of "Mama Grizzlies"
Sarah Palin is out with a new video today and she clearly is attempting to position herself as the leader of Republican conservative women.

AGs for 5 states eye legal strategy for oil spill
MOBILE, Ala. (AP) - The top law enforcement executives for five states will meet to talk about legal options for dealing with the effects of a massive oil spill threatening their Gulf of Mexico shores.
The attorneys general from Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas will meet Sunday in Mobile, Ala.
A statement said the meeting will discuss legal options, strategies, and preparations for the spill that erupted after a drill rig exploded April 20.
Asked if the states may file lawsuits against oil company BP PLC and other firms, a spokeswoman for Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum said he is looking at all possibilities.
Lawyers for private plaintiffs including fishermen have filed at least 26 potential class action lawsuits so far for damages from the spill.

Fagin practices the ancient art of manuscript illumination. In western tradition, an illuminated manuscript is one in which the handwritten or printed text is enhanced by the addition of decorated initials, borders, or illustrations. Technically speaking, illumination (also called gilding), refers to the application of gold leaf onto vellum or paper. However, illumination has come to be understood as a genre of art.
One of Amy's specialties is the ceremonial art of the ketubah (marriage contract) originated in early Jewish history as one of the first written documents required by Jewish law. Ornate and personalized, a couple's ketubah is hung prominently in the home as a daily reminder of their vows and their responsibilities to each other.
Amy will offer half-hour presentations throughout the day, demonstrating a variety of techniques that the manuscript illuminator uses to bring attention to the page: illuminating, calligraphy, and ornamental painting. All of these techniques date back to the early days of book arts.
An "illumination station" will also be set up in Amy's tent for young festival goers. Visitors are invited to sit down and decorate their very own illuminated manuscript, by coloring in an outlined design of one of Amy's illuminated manuscript creations.

I was quite surprised to find that the sprocket carrier contained not one, but two bearings, both marked as 6005. This seems to be a common KTM wheel bearing, used extensively on non-damped rear hubs. These two bearings were about 47mm in outer diameter, 25mm in inner diameter and 12mm in height, each. The spare 3205-B I had laying around measures 52x25x20.6.
There is something very strange with this, as none of the part fiches recognize this discrepancy. The 3205-B angular contact bearing will obviously not fit into this rear sprocket carrier. I think KTM specified an angular contact bearing for a reason, the chain imposes a different type of load on the sprocket carrier side. The 6005 is just a plain vanilla ball bearing.
I searched for references about this 6005 bearing, and I only got one relevant hit
On closer inspection of the part fiches, the part number for the actual sprocket carrier changes between for instance a 2003 and a 2007 Adventure. I guess this is to facilitate the different size bearing bore for the two 6005 bearings. The only problem is that the rest of the documentation was not changed accordingly.
Any similar experiences or words of advice?

Pakistan's Intensified Countermilitancy Push: Real Deal or False Hope
April 02, 2015 // 3:00pm — 4:30pm
Asia Program
After the terrorist attack on an army-run school in Peshawar in December 2014, Pakistan vowed to step up efforts to combat militancy, and to eliminate its policy of distinguishing between "good" and "bad" militants. Some observers, however, are skeptical that lasting progress will be made.
ISIS: Inside the Army of Terror
March 12, 2015 // 12:00pm — 1:00pm

Hassan will discuss ISIS: Inside the Army of Terror, which traces how the organization evolved from a nearly defeated Iraqi insurgent faction into a jihadi army of local and foreign volunteers who control a territory equal to the size of Great Britain. The book also delves into how ISIS recruits, governs, and guards itself from potential bottom-up rebellions. It is the first book since ISIS's recent rise to include original interviews with U.S. officials and ISIS members.
Countering Violent Extremism in Pakistan: Opportunities and Obstacles for Civil Society
February 26, 2015 // 2:30pm — 4:30pm
Asia Program
The December 16, 2014, school massacre in Peshawar is a sobering reminder of the still-potent threat of militancy in Pakistan. Encouragingly, nongovernmental organizations have been developing grassroots initiatives to counter violent extremism. These promising efforts, however, have to this point not grown into a nationwide campaign. What does Pakistani civil society hope to achieve with its anti-extremism movement?
Authorizing Military Action Against ISIL: Geography, Strategy and Unanswered Questions
February 23, 2015 // 2:00pm — 3:00pm
For the first time in his Administration, President Barack Obama has submitted to Congress a formal request for additional authority to use military force. Is his draft Authorization for Use of Military Force against ISIL "alarmingly broad," as The New York Times worries, or a narrow set of handcuffs? Does it empower the Presidency or create—as Senator John McCain put it—"535 Commanders-in-Chief"? From different angles, many ask: Does the proposed AUMF reflect sound law and sound strategy?

Earlier this year I had the pleasure of talking to Chicago high school student, Shaquiesha Davis, an intriguing young lady who developed an iPhone app, "Baby B 4 Me, " which she presented at the 2013 White House Science Fair. Davis created the app – which lets parents better communicate with their babysitters in real-time – and its accompanying business plan as a sophomore at Chicago Tech Academy, a four-year high school for inner-city teens.
As I spoke with Davis and Matt Hancock, the Executive Director at Chicago Tech, I was impressed that the young lady took what she saw as an every day challenge in her own life – based on her experiences babysitting and communicating with harried parents – and created a possible solution to it. This was made possible, of course, through the school's mission to "close the gender gap in tech," and all of its accompanying tactics for making that happen: mentorships, field trips, partnerships, scholarships and more. But still, when I spoke with Davis, I asked her,
"Are there any women in technology that inspire you or that you particularly admire?"
Her answer? "I don't really know any women in technology – and just that fact alone inspires me."
While I appreciate the intention of her answer, it gave me great pause – how do we get inspiring, smart and successful women in tech in front of young girls? How can we make technology as exciting and interesting as American Idol, nail polish and the mall? How can we get young women in general to start looking at life as something they can create, mold, and shape through their own use of technology (and I don't mean by posting selfies on Instagram or SnapChat)?
I have a few thoughts:
- Buy smarter toys – yes, girls love a good pair of ice skates, Barbies and tutus, but the next time you go to buy a young girl a gift – open her world to something she might not even know about. Instead of clicking on that pottery painting picture on the homepage of Mindware, visit the Science and Nature section and choose something from there.
- Publishers – get more creative. Young girls aren't going to read Fast Company or Wired or Inc. Magazine – so while having women entrepreneurs on the front of those is amazing – it doesn't really help in this case. I'm going to appeal to fashion and entertainment publishers – and this might rub some people the wrong way, but hear me out – to get more creative with who they're featuring. Why don't we see more women tech/business leaders featured in places like Glamour, InStyle or even Lucky Magazine? Let's apply the adage I tell my marketing clients – you need to connect with your audience around topics they already care about in order to get their attention – and make the connection for young girls that women in STEM careers are also cool, admirable – and even (gasp) fashionable. We're never going to change what tween and teen girls, as a majority, love – but we can relate to it. Imagine showing them what the inside of a tech guru's (say, Sheryl Sandberg, Alexandra Wilkis Wilson of Gilt Groupe, or even Justine Ezarik, to start) closet looks like with a nice spread in one of these fashion magazines and a headline that says something like, "Get a STEM career and you, too, could have this closet when you grow up."
- Help them learn about smarter apps – girls love Instagram. Why? Various reasons – they get to connect with friends, it's a popularity contest, they get to follow celebs and topics they are passionate about, they get to show everyone what they're wearing that day and so on. Can we please – please – please move beyond apps that focus on physicality and cringe-worthy selfies? Let's get them designing, learning, or even playing games – but with a twist to win something educational, like the chance to design and publish their own app for a celebrity, brand or publisher.
- Teach them to aspire higher and to take care of themselves - Wouldn't it be great to see society start making a connection for young girls that all those things they love – lip gloss, jewelry, clothes, shoes, etc. – are things that they'll need to work hard to earn in the future? And that earning it themselves through an amazing career – you know, like one in technology – is something to aspire to? Let's get them thinking beyond their MRS degree, please.
- Mentor – we can all do more of this, myself included. Who can you help inspire today with your love for tech? Have you volunteered to share your success story in a high school classroom, or offer a free workshop at a college? Don't wait around to be asked – go make it happen so we can inspire and educate tomorrow's generation of women, today.
I hope that the next time I interview an intelligent young woman like Shaquiesha, she'll have a laundry list of women in tech who inspired her. Let's make that happen. What are your thoughts on getting girls excited about creating – not just using – technology?

In Reply to: Re: a bed partner
: : Hello! I have found your sight to be very useful with the new member of our family. Her name is Ali and she is 8 weeks old. She seems so smart. We love her to death. We are using a crate for training and so far it seems to be working. My question is: will it hurt to let her sleep in bed with my son and just use the crate for when we are not home or just need that break from her? Also, do you think we will need training classes or can most people do that on their own? We are using Purina Puppy Chow food. Is that good enough for her? Thanks and keep up the good work!
Hi Peggy,
Congratulations on your newest family member and thank you for kind words about the site. I imagine you'll continue to find it very useful in the future. :-)
Personally, I don't have anything against dogs sleeping in bed with their humans. However, until Ali has shown that she can make it through the night (at least two weeks in a row) without having to go potty, she should remain in her crate. Also, if she is to be your son's bed partner, his room must be 100% puppy proof should Ali decide to go exploring when she should be sleeping! I'm sorry, Peggy, but I can't really tell you when Ali will be able to "hold it" all night. Generally -- and this is only generally -- a 5-6 month old pup has sufficient bladder control to sleep through the night. And a pup this age is less apt to hurt itself by jumping on or off a bed.
Training classes are as much about socialization with other humans and dogs as they are about learning to teach your dog to pay attention and obey commands. JRTs are not anti-social but they can (and will) take their loyal, protective nature too seriously if they are not properly exposed to people/dogs outside of their family. I highly recommend a class that teaches with positive reinforcement; most allow children to attend and observe if not participate (depends upon the age of the child) in the training.
Regarding the food you're giving Ali -- I prefer to buy our terriers' food at a store for pets...not a store where I can also buy a loaf of bread or a set of bath towels. :-) Please refer to the Food FAQ (link below) for more information.
Again, congratulations on your new family member!

Kirk Herbstreit, Jesse Palmer, David Pollack Strongly Disagree With Northern Illinois Getting BCS Bid for Orange Bowl (Video)
Originally written on NESN.com | Last updated 12/3/12
The BCS system is far from perfect, and 2012′s bowl decisions will give its detractors plenty of added ammunition. The problem this year has nothing to do with the national championship but instead is centered around Northern Illinois of the Mid American Conference getting one of the at-large bids to play in the Orange Bowl. NIU finished 12-1 this year and won the MAC championship to finish 15th in the final BCS standings. ESPN personalities Jesse Palmer, David Pollack and Kirk Herbstreit all found reasons to disagree with the inclusion of the Huskies over powerhouse programs like Oklahoma. The Sooners were No. 11 in the final standings. "The fact that Northern Illinois is in the BCS in 2012 is really a sad state for college football and where we are in the current system," Herbstreit said. NIU's lone loss came to an Iowa team that finished 4-8 and with a 2-6 record in the Big Ten. Check out the trio from ESPN in the video below. Also, check out the Huskies' reaction to receiving their bowl bid.

If that's all you know about EDM, then it proves you don't know **** about it indeed. If you look furter than what comes up first page on google when you type in EDM, you'd see that there is an ENORMOUS array of genres and subgenres that all sound radically different from eachother and keep evolving and merging into newer ones. but instead of doing that you just splurt out the generic "hurr hurr all sound the same, if it ain't rock it sucks cock" crap.

Third straight year the Reds have taken a HS 3B in the second round. Weird.

Great power potential, I like the upside. Don't know much else about him.
Far and away the lowest rated on BA's Top 500 that has been drafted so far (#232)
Go BLUE!!!
From Baseball America. Does that sound like Juan Francisco?Kevin Franklin, 3b, Gahr HS, Cerritos, Calif. (@RealKJ44)
Franklin immediately stands out for his burly physique. At 6-foot-2 and 220 pounds, Franklin has a thick lower half and a barrel chest. There aren't many major league third basemen with his build. He has above-average arm strength, but his lack of lateral quickness and occasionally stiff hands in the field may trigger an eventual move to first base. That's OK because Franklin's provocative power should allow him to move anywhere on the diamond. As you might imagine, his physique lends to a strength-oriented swing and Franklin shows towering raw power at times. He's mostly pull oriented right now, but if he becomes more consistent at the plate and learns to use the entire field, he could be a serious power threat. Franklin plays for Yak Baseball West and is committed to Arizona State.
Heads of state that ride and wrangle. That look at your face from more than one angle. Can cut you from their bloated budgets. Like sharpened knives through Chicken McNuggets.
Power and little else according to these guys. Power plays though. Video.
Heads of state that ride and wrangle. That look at your face from more than one angle. Can cut you from their bloated budgets. Like sharpened knives through Chicken McNuggets.
He's a longer term project, but that's okay with me. Could be a Ortiz.
With Rahier, Mejias-Brean, and Rosa - 3B seems a little crowded in the lower minors, no?
I wonder if there is any chance they can try to make Franklin into a catcher?
Great arm, stocky build, limited lateral movement, power bat. Hmmm...
Go BLUE!!!
Interesting preseason list of Top 50 Draft Prospects had Franklin at 50, with Lorenzen 9 spots ahead of him and Ervin 9 spots ahead of that:
Go BLUE!!!
Edd Roush (06-07-2013)
Looks to me like the equivalent of a kid who throws 99 with movement but command and secondary stuff are uncertain. A project.
I really like the athleticism despite his size. If he can tone down his swing just a bit in order to gain more contact and more of a gap-to-gap approach, he could be a monster.
Fun selection.
"Baseball is a very, very complex business. It's more of a people business than most businesses." - Bob Castellini
Franklin was a member of the 2012 Reviving Baseball in Inner Cities USA Baseball's 2012 Tournament of Stars.
In the same way that a baseball season never really begins, it never really ends either. - Lonnie Wheeler, "Bleachers, A Summer in Wrigley Field"
The Baseball Emporium - Books & Things, that's Rallyonion.com
The Baseball Bookstore
I don't get it - could have taken Denney or another pitcher with this pick and drafted this guy later.
I hope he can stick at 3b or, like someone said, move to catcher because first base will be occupied a while.
I like his swing. His glove looks decent, his footwork looks questionable. That odd little front foot ankle twist on his swing is unusual. Seems to really pop out at me everytime he swings.
Catcher or outfield seems like the right location for him eventually IMO. 1b and 3b...I don't think so. Time will tell.
Keith Law panned the pick, calling it one of the biggest reaches of the day. Says he only has one tool - power.
I'm starting the "Move Franklin to Catcher" campaign. That could be really interesting.
Go BLUE!!!
Doesn't keith law pan all the reds picks and moves, or does it just seem that way?

Freelance illustrator/character designer...
... looking for either a summer comission or a small part as a colaborator on a larger project that does not require more than a fully colored A4 CG illustration per 2 months.
I can try tighter deadlines but I'm very limited by my main job. It will largely depend on the illustration in itself.
I have some professional experience on fantasy illustration and do some sci-Fi though I'm not at ease with mecha. I work mainly with characters (human, animal or creature design) but I'm also confortable with natural scenarios,
For the time being I don't own a portfolio so here's a sample of my work below. For more info or samples please e-mail me.

The final window on Andy's advent calendar of shame has been opened to reveal… his tenuous grasp of geography…
'IRB should change residency qualification to minimum of 5 years' then NZ would not be 'as good'
Trust someone as ill-informed as Howell to bring out the old 'poaching' myth.
'NZ bring on their latest IMPORT IRB should change residency qualification to minimum of 5yrs' Howell tweeted, and then added 'they would still be a major force but not as good' if it were not for 'poaching'.
There are only 2 Pacific Island born players in the All Blacks current squad; neither would be barred by a 5 year qualification period either (including Jerome Kaino who migrated aged 4), so how exactly they would be 'not as good' is anybody's guess.
Howell added 'guilty Kiwis very sensitive on subject', more likely they just think he's an utter clown, something they themselves are used with their own press with Chris Rattue, the New Zealand version of Howell.

Club History
Close to the end of World War II, Valley View Golf Club was a far different golf club than it is today. It was located on the property which today is known as "Nob Hill". The boundaries were South Church, Kagy (which at that time was nothing more than a dirt lane), and Highland Boulevard...
The first hole started at the bottom of the hill on Church, and the golfer reached the green by hitting uphill all the way to a dog leg to the left built into the side of the hill. The second hole was at the extreme top of the hill. There were no powered carts in those days...

Philadelphia Proposes Major "Green" Storm Water Plan
U.S. EPA representative: "This is the most significant use of green infrastructure I've seen in the country"
The city of Philadelphia has announced plans to invest $1.6 billion in managing and treating storm water with "green" solutions, namely rain gardens, green roofs, tree plantings, rain harvesting barrels and porous pavers."This is the most significant use of green infrastructure I've seen in the country, the largest scale I've seen," Jon Capacasa, regional director of water protection for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), told The Philadelphia Inquirer. "We commend Philadelphia for breaking the ice."The plan--totaling 3,369 printed pages--is theoretically workable, according to Natural Resources Defense Council water expert Nancy Stoner. "It's the scaling up that's new," she said to the newspaper. "That's what's really exciting."City officials have been working on the plan for about 12 years. They ruled out separating the city's combined storm water and sanitary sewer lines early on; the option was too expensive. Major sewage plant expansions and constructing massive underground tunnels, the next options considered, were deemed inefficient and costly.The newly proposed green infrastructure proposal would raise rates a bit, but it would also attract grants and private investment. City officials estimate that this plan would reduce overflows by 80%, but the EPA has expressed that it wants Philadelphia to demonstrate an 85% reduction.For more information, visit www.philly.com/inquirer/front_page/20090927_breaking_ground_with_a__1_6_....

If you've already been through one heart attack, you're at increased risk for another, but with a few smart moves you can reduce that risk.
Unfortunately, many heart patients have mistaken ideas about what's good for them.
If your Aunt Mary had a heart attack even after a lifetime of eating low-fat foods and jogging every day, you may think changing your own lifestyle is not worth the trouble. Or, your friend the construction worker may have given up his job after a heart attack, so you assume you'll need to give up your desk job, too. Don't count on it. Work with your doctor to learn what's best for you personally.
Learning to eat better may seem like the challenge of a lifetime--not to mention giving up cigarettes or making time for regular exercise. Yet, these are some of the best things you can do for a happier, healthier future.
Important steps that can help you prevent a second heart attack include:
Quit smoking.
Exercise regularly, according to your health care provider's advice.
Eat a healthy, balanced diet low in fat and calories.
Control your weight.
Manage your blood pressure.
Control your cholesterol levels.
Control diabetes or any other blood sugar abnormalities.
You may have lost your healthy self-image or the ability to do important things in your life. Any major life change will bring feelings of loss and may require a grieving process.
You and your family may need to work through a variety of emotions after your heart attack. Keep in mind that doing so leads to a positive, constructive future.
If you are overwhelmed with feelings of grief or depression, don't hesitate to seek help from a mental health professional.
Don't stop taking your medications without talking to your health care provider. Work with your provider to determine what your choices are and what these medications can do for you in terms of risk versus benefit. Ask for help in choosing the ones that:
Work the best for you
Have the fewest side effects
Are affordable
You'll be comfortable taking
Think about it: If you quit smoking and everyone else in the family quits as a result, you'll be helping everyone. Don't be afraid to make a big deal about your attempts at a healthy lifestyle; ask your loved ones to give you as much support as possible.
In many cases, the treatments doctors relied on just a few years ago already are considered outdated. There have been dramatic changes in medications and procedures, so stay up-to-date with regular visits to your health care team.
Maybe you're worried it will overstress your heart, but regular exercise actually may be one of the best things you can do for your heart. It's crucial for someone who's already had a heart attack to exercise properly under the advice of a doctor. Get an exercise prescription designed just for you, based on your physical condition and your needs and interests.
Exercise can help people control risks related to weight, cholesterol, blood pressure, and blood sugar. One excellent way to get started is to participate in a cardiac rehabilitation program.
Your health care provider is your greatest ally and wants to partner in your care. Don't hesitate to call if you have questions or concerns.

Supernatural & Parapsychology
Readers, please enjoy this guest blog post by Debra Robinson, author of A Haunted Life and The Dead Are Watching. I've had so many people over the years, both friends and clients, ask about psychic abilities. They want to know the particulars�how it happens for me, and most importantly, how to do it themselves. I believe we are all born with abilities, but that they do run stronger in some families. Whether this is due to those families listening to and accepting them (leading to ever-increasing perceptions), or whether there is some genetic predisposition toward them, is really the question for the ages. Just as some families lean toward producing artistic minds and some scientific minds, I believe awareness of our own abilities can cause them to expand and develop into a sense... Read this Post

2004 Lexus RX330 Q&A
2004 Lexus RX330 Question: Intermittent loss of power to heating/AC, GPS, clock.
Intermittent power loss for AC/Heat, GPS and clock. Also having problems with the side view mirrors and not sure if connected to first problem. Comes back on anytime it wants from 1 hr to 3 days. Cannot get it to the dealer in-time before it works again and they cannot fix what is not broke. - dmck
Answer 1
Theses are especially tough. The way I would approach this is to find the wiring that goes to the A/C/Heat, GPS and Clock and then inspect the connections and grounds for looseness or any unusual signs, as well as pulling on the wiring to see if I could duplicate the problem. How about going to a good Independent Shop that works on Lexus? I have worked in several Dealerships and not all of their Techs are the best in the field. http://repairpal.com/directory?address=80915&car_brand_names=Lexus - dandd

Widgey breastfeeding pillow

"This is a fantastic croissant-shaped pillow which you put around…"
This is a fantastic croissant-shaped pillow which you put around your belly to rest your baby on while it's feeding. I didn't get mine until DS was 10 weeks old but I really wish I'd had it to help with those tricky first few days when we were getting used to breast-feeding.
It's brilliant - firm enough to hold your baby up, but soft enough to be comfortable for them. The cover zips off for washing and you can choose from lots of different cover styles. The pillow itself is washable too.
I reckon this would be a great gift for a new Mum who's planning to/started to breastfeed.Read moreLess

For example, research indicates that sickle cell trait contributes to resistance against malaria. Other genes are likely to affect susceptibility to malaria (Faik et al., 2009) and leprosy (Zhang et al., 2009).
Some rare diseases or conditions result from exposure to natural or manufactured toxic substances, including substances that appear as product contaminants. In the United States, examples include arsenic and mercury poisoning, mesothelioma (a cancer caused by exposure to asbestos), and eosinophilia-myalgia syndrome, which is associated with contaminated (or overused) tryptophan, a dietary supplement.10
It is likely that far more types of poisoning could be listed as rare conditions than are included in the list maintained by the Office of Rare Diseases Research (ORDR) at NIH. For example, the committee found newspaper reports of rare cadmium, chromium, phosphine, and other poisonings in the United States, but none is listed as a rare disease. These toxic substances are a concern of ATSDR.
Also not listed are rare poisonings caused by a variety of marine toxins that may contaminate seafood and that are tracked by the CDC (CDC, 2005). Likewise, Amatoxin poisoning, a rare and often fatal illness caused by Amanita phalloides—the "death cap" mushroom—is also not listed. Approximately 50 cases are diagnosed each year in the United States. Doctors who treat patients with this poisoning sometimes obtain FDA approval for emergency use of a milk thistle extract that is manufactured in Europe but that has not clinically evaluated or approved for marketing as a drug in the United States (Coombs, 2009).11
Some drugs have received orphan designation and approval for treatment of rare poisonings. For example, FDA has approved an orphan drug for the treatment of acute cyanide poisoning (hydroxocobalamin [Cyanokit]). Several agents have received orphan designations for treatment of snakebites, but only one has been approved (Crotalidae polyvalent immune fab [ovine] [CroFab] for certain rattlesnake and other snake bites).
Dietary supplements are regulated by FDA, but under 1994 legislation (P.L. 103-417), manufacturers are usually not required to register their products with FDA, get marketing approval based on evidence of safety and effectiveness, or report adverse events possibly related to the use of the product. FDA may take action against an unsafe supplement once it has reached the market.
The extract is, however, marketed as an herbal supplement, and a variety of unproved benefits have been asserted (NCCAM, 2008). Congress has directed that such supplements not be subjected to the same regulatory standards and review as medications.
