Gerald de Barri
Gerald of Wales (c. 1146 – c. 1223), also known asGerald de Barry, Gerallt Gymroin Welsh or Giraldus Cambrensis in Latin, archdeacon of Brecon, was a medieval clergyman and chronicler of his times. ... show more
Gerald of Wales (c. 1146 – c. 1223), also known asGerald de Barry, Gerallt Gymroin Welsh or Giraldus Cambrensis in Latin, archdeacon of Brecon, was a medieval clergyman and chronicler of his times. Born ca. 1146 at Manorbier Castle in Pembrokeshire, Wales, he was of mixed Norman and Welsh descent; he is also known as Gerald de Barri.
Gerald was son of William FitzOdo de Barry (or Barri), the common ancestor of the Barry family in Ireland and one of the most powerful Anglo-Norman barons in Wales at that time.[1] He was a maternal nephew of David fitzGerald, the Bishop of St David's and a grandson of Gerald de Windsor (alias FitzWalter),[2] Constable of Pembroke Castle, and Nest the daughter of Rhys ap Tewdwr. Through their mother, Angharad, Gerald and his siblings were closely related to Angharad's first cousin, Rhys ap Gruffydd, the Lord Rhys (Yr Arglwydd Rhys), and his family.
Gerald received his initial education at the Benedictine house of Gloucester, followed by a period of study in Paris from ca 1165-74, where he studied the trivium. He was employed by Richard of Dover, the Archbishop of Canterbury, on various ecclesiastical missions in Wales, wherein he distinguished himself for his efforts to remove supposed abuses ofconsanguinity and tax laws flourishing in the Welsh church at the time. He was appointed archdeacon of Brecon, to which was attached a residence at Llanddew. He obtained this position by reporting the existence of the previous archdeacon's mistress; the man was promptly fired. While administrating this post, Gerald collected tithes of wool and cheese from the populace; the income from the archdeaconry supported him for many years. Upon the death of his uncle, the Bishop of St David's, in 1176, the chapter nominated Gerald as his successor. St David's had long-term aims of becoming independent of Canterbury, and the chapter may have thought that Gerald was the man to take up the cause. Henry II of England, fresh from his struggle with Thomas Becket, promptly rejected Gerald, possibly because his Welsh blood and ties to the ruling family of Deheubarth made him seem like a troublesome prospect, in favor of one of his Norman retainers Peter de Leia. According to Gerald, the king said at the time: "It is neither necessary nor expedient for king or archbishop that a man of great honesty or vigor should become Bishop of St. David's, for fear that the Crown and Canterbury should suffer thereby. Such an appointment would only give strength to the Welsh and increase their pride".[3] The chapter acquiesced in the decision; and Gerald, disappointed with the result, withdrew to the University of Paris. From ca 1179-8, he studied and taught canon law and theology. He returned to England and spent an additional five years studying theology. In 1180, he received a minor appointment from the Bishop of St. David's, which he soon resigned because of corruption he saw in the administration.
About Gerald De Barri
Giraldus Cambrensis: also known as Gerald of Wales or Gerald de Barri Life: (c.1147-1223) He was elected Bishop of St David's in 1176, but when Henry II refused to confirm his election, he withdrew to lecture at Paris. Later, appointed a royal chaplain, in 1185 he accompanied Prince John to Ireland. He wrote an account of Ireland's natural history and inhabitants, following this with Expugnatio Hibernica (c.1189, History of the Conquest of Ireland). In 1188 he travelled through Wales to recruit soldiers for the Third Crusade, and wrote up his observations in the Itinerarium Cambriae (1191, Itinerary of Wales). Giraldus Cambrensis or Gerald of Wales was born at Manorbier in Pembrokeshire around 1147 into a Norman-Welsh family. His father, Gerald de Windsor had married Nest, the daughter of Rhys ap Tewdwr, Prince of Deheubarth; the family also claimed a relationship with the family of The Lord Rhys (Rhys ap Gruffydd). Gerald was educated in Paris; he served as an administrator of the see of St. David's and as a clerk at the court of Henry II, accompanied Prince John to Ireland, and traveled with Archbishop Baldwyn through Wales. Gerald's writings reflect experiences gained on his travels as well as his knowledge of the authorities on learning. Repeatedly rejected for the bishopric of his beloved St. David's, Gerald pleaded not only his own cause, but that of St. David's as an archbishopric, visiting Rome on three occasions in support of his claims. Failing to be appointed to St. David's, Gerald maintained that it was the fear of the effect that it would have on the national politics in Wales that prevented his appointment. (The Pope was not too anxious to have a Welsh Church independent of Canterbury). It was his prolific writing, particularly Itinerarium Cambriae (The Journey Through Wales) and Descriptio Cambriae (Description of Wales) that were to provide Wales with the only sources of many early Welsh history and folk tales. Gerald travelled throughout Wales collecting stories, noting conversations and events of the day, and penning his books. He was nominated in 1198 for a second time as Bishop of St David. Gerald wrote Itinerarium Cambriae about the journey he made with the Archbishop Baldwyn. ...more about Gerald De Barri

In honor of National Arts in Education Week, we wanted to take a peek inside the creative and inspiring mind of award-winning designer, Cinda Boomershine.
From wordly travels to an up close and personal interest in the history of patterns, Cinda and her contemporary eye for color, has created a collection of colorways to empower women to embrace their personal style. From Amore, our newest pattern, to Ravinia Ivory, the oldie but goodie, Cinda pulled some of her inspiration, along with a Q & A, to share her ideas and concepts behind the collectable patterns that are designed just for you.
Q: Describe your creative process.
A: I keep my eyes open regardless of what I am doing or where I am. I am constantly scanning the world around me for inspirations and trends for color schemes, new patterns, and new styles. It is always at the top of my mind, looking for something fresh and innovative to add to the cinda b collection. I look at everything from magazines and the internet to trend services and vintage design books to widen my horizon and assist me in finding what needs to be found. I never forget that inspiration is often found in the most unexpected places. Believe it or not, I even find great inspiration from the great outdoors. I feel that Mother Nature is often the best source for color schemes. Eventually, I start to see a trend in what I am drawn towards. When this happens, I start putting pen to paper.
Q: Why did you name this pattern Amore?
A: First off, we were looking for a primary philanthropic focus for cinda b® when we first started designing this pattern. I've always had a tugging in my heart for more heart health awareness; therefore, we decided that our newest pattern needed to embody love and the heart. The beautiful balance of a rich red complemented by a deep burgundy left us no choice than to name the pattern Amore, which means "love" in Italian. This stunning and wearable red is sophisticated yet sassy with a little nod to boho-chic style, allowing a smooth transition from day to night. I am delighted that a portion of the proceeds from the sale of Amore will benefit Go Red For Women™ a project of the American Heart Association®.
Q: How do the seasons inspire this pattern?
A: When we started concepts for this pattern, the beautiful, bold, and bright greens caught our eyes as they ushered in the spring season. We thought that this beautiful green color was the perfect translation for a spring + summer pattern. To complete our color palette, we combined that green of spring with the deep navy of a summer night sky and the rich turquoise of a crystal blue sea. Nothing says summer more than those spent looking up at the stars and the refreshing dip you take to cool off on those hot summer days. We then took some of our favorite spring flowers, gave them a cinda b spin and arranged them into a unique geometric pattern. The combination of the color palette and a striking, geometric floral pattern radiates preppy in its colors and bohemian in its design. Verde Bonita is just that — a beautiful green.
Q: How do you design a pattern that "goes with everything"?
A: I was inspired by a classic chevron pattern that I wanted to shake up and make it our own. I played with many color variations, but I never could escape the bright color palette. Here's the kicker: I wanted to design a pattern that would go with everything — black, brown, jeans, etc. With all the bright colors of this classic pattern, we wanted to pair it with a very neutral solid, and ivory seemed like the perfect choice. The result is a pattern, Ravinia Ivory, that works with just about any outfit, which answers this question to a "T"!
Q: How did the Big Apple inspire this design?
A: I had the Big Apple in mind for this pattern right from the get go. I wanted to create something sleek and sophisticated so that it would look right at home in Manhattan. This geometrically modified flame stitch pattern (which just so happens to look like the famous NY landmark itself) did just that. The color combination of black, gray, tan, and brown paired with a smoky grey solid, makes Empire Slate my favorite pattern to take with me while traveling for business (especially when I'm visiting the Big Apple)!

Hey all!
Today I wrote my first question and answer post from parents like you who have children diagnosed with ADHD. You can see the first Q&A here. That particular question I found online to get me started; however, I do get questions from parents who have joined our ADHD community on Google Plus. I want to educate other moms and dads online that there are MANY other parents out there with the same concerns. You are not alone!
I was not a very consistent writer in 2013. I think some people forget they signed up for my newsletter. Unfortunately, I had a couple of subscribers report my emails as spam. I know one in particular must have forgot she signed up for my newsletter because she wrote a note complaining that my email was spammy. Please, if you do not want my newsletters anymore, PLEASE click unsubscribe. Please don't click spam! When you click spam, it gets reported to our newsletter provider (in my case, Mailchimp). Too many complaints can get our website banned from search engines!
Anyways, if you haven't already, don't forget to like ADHD Parenting Blog on Facebook and subscribe via email. Thanks for reading!

DR Robert Gonzo
No Matter The Floor You Pass Out On
I awake as any other madman slash poet.
Apon the floor naked pizza box for pillow a members only jacket for a blanket.
yes the libary sure has changed over the years.
less and less people were reading buggets were cut meaning
libraryies were under staffed and rarely did anyone dare venture into
the stacks and thank good for that. Cause being i preffered free sleeping
it was probaly for the best.
but no matter the the floor you pass out on most all fine
american men wake up with are god given birth rite.
That which after a trip to the restroom like
that early morning madness that was christmas pressent openning
was over way to fast and was kinda disapointing.
Floors werent the best beds in the world in fact they
sucked altogather but drinking and common sense dont even
belong in the same room togather.
Portsmouth Va was a strange world indeed a place where upscale colided with skidrow.
Me I preffer the company of a outdoor sleeper to that of a
spoiled spoon fed yuppie turd.
the art school cranked out angst ridden buble people by the second.
They walked the street soaking in the pain of life.
there heads stuck so far up there asses I always felt compeled to trip them as they walked
acting as though they were outsiders yerning to be mainstream
they'd rape there mothers on a mtv reality show as dad cried in the background.
Just for a taste of stardom.
True talent who needs that?
but no matter the floor you pass out on one
thing was clear.
In a world were you could have a bus load
of kids and get paid for it.
fame wasnt such a rare thing anymore.
The floor I passed out on was cold and cruel but surrounded
voices from the past.
the floor these hollow reallity show bottom feeders
passed out on. Had to besoft as there heads.
Otherwise there brains would splatter across the floor.
And some TV exect would have a brainstorm to have a show
were washed up celebrities would have a contest.
To see who could bore us the most with there sob story
Yes friends id rather have a pizza box for a pillow
than a reality show pillbox for a brain.
and the truth effectsus all form no matter
which floor so you do choose to pass out on.

This story was corrected on March 4, 2014. An explanation follows.
It was 9 p.m. on a cold January evening when Char Serwa became another statistic — a crime victim, robbed and carjacked at gunpoint.
Serwa parked her car in the driveway of her Takoma Park home. She then noticed a man walking fast on Sycamore Avenue.
"I knew this was bad immediately. I didn't have time to run back to my car and get away," Serwa said.
She decided to act calm and walked up the three steps near her home walkway. When she reached the third step and turned around, the man was behind her.
"He said 'Give me all your stuff,'" Serwa said.
Serwa hesitated for a moment, at which point the man raised the gun to her face. Serwa said he was very specific.
"He asked for my keys, my purse, and my phone. ... I gave him everything, but I still had my house keys," Serwa added.
Serwa was the fifth armed robbery victim in January in the city of Takoma Park. Her testimony was part of a town hall meeting on crime trends and prevention on Feb. 25 at the Takoma Park Community Center.
The rise in crime in the recent year in Takoma Park prompted residents to organize the meeting.
According to city manager Brian Kenner, overall crime in Takoma Park has dropped 4 percent, from 2012 to 2013. Montgomery County Police reported on Feb. 25 that crime dropped by 26 percent in Montgomery County, from 2007 to 2013.
In Takoma Park, burglaries have increased by 54 percent from 2012 to 2013. Sycamore Avenue is now a hot spot, with burglaries up by 300 percent from 2012 to 2013.
"I have to believe this gathering is a moving in the right direction for the community and the police department to find and adopt solutions to Takoma Park's crime problem even if it is uncomfortable. ... One is too many ... and five makes us an easy target," Serwa said.
The meeting, hosted by Maryland Comptroller Peter Franchot and Takoma Park Mayor Bruce Williams, was a two-hour forum to raise awareness and discuss strategies for crime prevention in the region.
Residents decided they've had enough and started the Takoma Park Crime Prevention group a couple of weeks after Serwa's incident. They have met four times at each other's homes to explore options to prevent crime, and have better communication between the community and law enforcement.
Among their recommendations: the installation of surveillance cameras around the city and on police cruisers; automated license readers on police vehicles; changing traffic patterns to minimize access and easy escape for criminals, and cross-jurisdiction cooperation among the police departments.
More than 200 residents attended the meeting Feb. 25, which included testimony from victims of crimes such as burglary, armed robberies, and carjacking. A panel of eight police chiefs listened to residents' concerns, testimonies, and recommendations.
Among them were Takoma Park Police Chief Alan Goldberg, Montgomery County Police Chief J.

Jen Ujifusa has been living in Takoma Park for the past five years. On Jan. 11, she was walking home along Walnut Street from feeding a neighborhood's cat at about 6 p.m. when a car pulled up. A man got out and pulled a gun on Ujifusa.
She tossed him her purse, which the gunman picked up and ran away.
Ujifusa said the Takoma Park Police initial response was good, and officers were out almost immediately. "They brought dogs; they followed the trail; they were kind [and] they made sure I was all right," said Ujifusa.
Ujifusa found out on Feb. 25 there has been progress in her case. Investigators issued an arrest warrant that day, and arrested Quinton Andro Battle, 17, of Suitland, Md. on Feb.26.. But until the officer called her, she was certain nothing was going to be done.
"I felt completely disenfranchised, and I could have been better served and would be more loyal and an ally to you if I had been offered more information more often; even if the message contained no specifics," Ujifusa said.
Battle was arrested and charged as an adult for armed carjacking, armed robbery, felony firearm use, possession of handgun, theft of $10,000 to under $100,000 in Serwa's case, and theft less than $1,000 in Ujifusa's incident.
According to www.takomaparkmd.gov, the city has approximately 17,000 residents and has 46 police officers who patrol 2.4 square miles.
Goldberg said crime is a regional issue, not only a Takoma Park issue.
"Criminals don't really care. ... They don't care what border they cross," Goldberg said.
Goldberg said the department is looking into an interconnectivity mobile data system so dispatchers from different jurisdictions can talk to each other.
Editor's note: In the original version of this story, the statistic for the increase in burglaries was misused as the increase in crime overall.

Europe Train Challenge – 22 Countries In 8 Weeks: The first few days of this week contained A LOT of train travel. My predictions in our week 7 update were right:
The train from Istanbul to Bucharest turned out to be longer than it was supposed to, in fact, it turned out to be the longest and most uncomfortable train ride we've taken so far …
Countries This Week: Romania, Hungary and Slovakia
We were the only people taking the train the whole way to Bucharest, and after some time we realized why…
The supposedly 20 hour long train ride turned out to be 25 hours, stopping in the most random places, back tracking half the time and taking the longest way to reach the final destination.
25 hours is long but it would have been OK if the power in the train carriage and cabin wasn't broken.
But yes, the power was OFF, meaning it was pitch dark at night, and since there was no fan or air con working and the windows could barely open up, it was like a sauna in the day.
Having no power makes you realize how reliant you are on it, and with dead laptops you sit there rolling your thumbs while the hours feel longer and longer.
We only stopped for the night in Bucharest, and at 6 am the next morning we were off on yet another train to Sighisoara.
Within 37 hours we had traveled on trains for 30 of them – but it was so worth the extra time it took getting to Sighisoara!
Sighisoara, being one of the best perserved mideval towns in Europe, was SO quaint.
The houses looked like they were cartooned, with uneven sides and roofs, many painted in the brightest of colors, and old hunching ladies with scarves over their hair walking down the steep cobbled streets.
The next city of the week was Budapest.
Budapest is a city we feel some sort of connection with.
It was our last stop on our very first round the world trip together, and it was what made the last impression of our trip, and what in some way I believe is what made us want to go traveling soon again.
Going back was interesting, as this time we had quite a different impression of the city.
Last time we thought it was a rough city, but this time we didn't feel that way at all.
I guess it all comes down to what you compare it with, but it also made me realize how traveling has changed us and how we look at things compared to a few years ago.
The last stop this week was Bratislava. If there is one word that would sum up this place, it would be "quirky".
There are so many quirky details to be found in this city if you look for them, like a bright blue church and funny statues everywhere.
We happened to be there during the beginning of some festival, so the streets were filled with people in traditional folk lore clothing and performing folk dance on stage!
Next week, we're going totally hard-core, and will be visiting 4 countries in one week! Vienna, Prague, Berlin and Warsaw here we come!

BEAUMONT, Texas – The Lamar University softball team hopes Mother Nature is a little more cooperative in October than she was in September.
After seeing most of their September schedule washed away, the Cardinals are slated to play a number of games in October to wrap up their fall exhibition schedule, including four home games at Ford Park.
The Cardinals open the month this Saturday with three games at the LSU Tournament, facing LSU-Eunice, Belhaven and the host Tigers.
Lamar's first October home game is set for 1 p.m. Oct. 12 against Alvin Community College. The Cardinals host San Jacinto Community College at 6 p.m. Oct. 17, Galveston Community College at 2 p.m. Oct. 18 and Lamar State College-Port Arthur at 2 p.m. Oct. 20.
The Cardinals are at Louisiana-Lafayette on Oct. 13.
Admission to all of Lamar's fall home games is free. The Cardinals were 24-35 last season, their first season of softball since 1987. The Cardinals finished in fifth place in the Southland Conference with a 14-13 record.
The spring schedule will be announced in the near future.

Jones County's DFCS Director Tammy Threatt presented the program at the July 21 meeting and started by explaining administrative changes. She said, in the past, the department reported to the commissioner of the Department of Human Services, but that has changed.
She said Georgia DFCS has a new director, Bobby Cagle, and he would report directly to Gov. Nathan Deal.
"The reason given for that change is the governor wants a clearer picture of what is needed," she said.
Threatt said the past eight years have been difficult for DFCS, as many state agencies. She said employees' positions were not filled and no one had gotten raises.
"I feel like the governor is trying to be more responsive. We are hoping for better communication," she said.

This book transformed my understanding of PostScript. Before, I was only vaguely aware of PostScript as a language to send data to certain printers. Mathematical Illustrations enlarges that view to showcase PostScript as a rich language capable of presenting graphics, from technical illustrations in perspective to function graphing.
While the purpose of this text is to aid mathematicians, scientists, engineers, and graphic designers in using PostScript for geometric exhibition, along the way the reader learn much about PostScript as a programming language. This includes ideas that can be applied to more general programming tasks, such as array and stack handling.
This is the type of book that readily suggests itself of including a disk of source code examples, but the book comes with no such extra media. However, this is more than made up by the fact that the book's site includes not only such code samples, but the entire text of the manual: http://www.math.ubc.ca/~cass/graphics/manual/. You have the option of obtaining the content online in PDF format or, of course, PostScript.
Whether reading the book in hand or accessing the content online, do not let the need for a PostScript implementation be the only reason to peruse this enlightening volume. The work also serves as a practical introduction to how geometry is applied in the creation of graphical images. Of particular mathematical interest are the sections on curves (including Bézier curves and their mathematical motivation), nonlinear 2D transformation (including stereographic projection). Three sections on 3D representation provide a good background for a mathematical approach to 3D depiction for the artist, mathematician, and technical illustrator. The lucid and detailed section on applying triangulation to breaking down complex shapes into connected triangles for depiction is very interesting and laid out so completely as to present the concepts in a way that could easily be applied to other environments.
Complete to the point of even helping you get your PostScript environment set up, this manual is a rich and educational guide to applying geometry and getting the most out of PostScript.
By night, Thomas Schulte is a graduate student studying mathematics at Oakland University in Auburn Hills, Michigan. By day he is a software engineer at Plexus Systems with a special interest in applying vector markup language (VML) for Web presentations of statistical process control (SPC) charts and business graphs.

GIB reports 42 percent increase in first quarter profits for 2004
Gulf International Bank (GIB) reported consolidated net income after tax of $39.2 million for the three months ending March 31, 2004, representing an $11.6 million or 42 percent increase over the prior year period.
The strong year-on-year advance was attributable to higher non-interest earnings and a lower level of provisions, according to a press release. Net income is reported after provisions for credit losses of $8.8 million, being $11.3 million lower than the provision charge of $20.1 million in the first quarter of 2003.
Net interest income at $43.1 million was marginally lower than in the prior year period. A decrease in interest earnings resulting from the lower interest rate environment was largely offset by higher margin income from the core Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) banking activity.
GIB is a GCC focused merchant bank headquartered in Bahrain. Consolidated total assets at the quarter end were $17.9 million, being $649.4 million up on the 2003 year end level. This was principally attributable to a $485.1 million increase in loans and advances. — (menareport.com)

GEORGETOWN, Guyana (GINA) — Venezuela's objection to Guyana's claim for an extended continental shelf was expected, but at the same time deeply regrettable; however, the country is free to make known its views on the matter, according to Guyana's Minister of Foreign Affairs Carolyn Rodrigues-Birkett.
Rodrigues-Birkett said that when the submission was made, there was some amount of reaction from Venezuela.
"We met in Trinidad. I met with my counterpart from Venezuela and we discussed the matter. Actually it states very clearly, that countries can make their views known. So if Guyana makes a submission and other countries would like their views known on that submission, they are free to do so. So Venezuela is free to make their views known to the commission," Rodrigues-Birkett said.
She added that Guyana had been waiting to be called to make its oral submission and will be doing that on April 11, 2012.
On the hope of Guyana being successful in the application, the minister noted that there was a process involved during which the Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf (CLCS) of the United Nations will consider Guyana's submission along with many others.
"This is not something that you will hear tomorrow, that 'Yes Guyana, this is what you have claimed and this is what you will receive.' There are several other countries, Barbados, Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago that have also made claims. What would happen, at some time, the commission would say, 'Yes you're entitled,'" the minister explained.
She added that, at that point in time, Guyana will then have to, "sit down with these countries to negotiate where those boundaries will fall." She observed that the process is a very important one for Guyana.
In recognition of the fact that the boundary with Venezuela was definitively settled by the Arbitral Award of October 3, 1899, Guyana informed the CLCS, in its Submission, that, "there are no disputes in the region relevant to this Submission of data and information relating to the outer limits of the continental shelf beyond 200 nautical miles."
That statement remains legally and factually correct, the foreign minister stated.
She also pointed out that the Geneva Agreement of February 17, 1966, was aimed at allowing the parties to resolve the matter of the claim of nullity and invalidity of the arbitral award by Venezuela and, not to reopen the question of the boundary between Guyana and Venezuela.
Rodrigues-Birkett stated that, while Venezuela is not a party to the Convention of the Law of the Sea, the country would have not submitted any claim regarding the extension, "but the claim that they have on part of Guyana's territory is still there."
"So for us, our boundary has been settled by the 1899 arbitral award," she stated.
"We would subscribe to the Good Officer's process. Basically, that process is to help us to find a solution … and we believe that firstly it has to be proven that that award is null and void. So far that has not been the case," the minister declared.
The foreign ministry earlier this week made it clear that Guyana's submission to the CLCS, pursuant to Article 76 of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (the Convention), was done in a manner fully consistent with the provisions of international law, including the convention.
The submission itself was made without prejudice to maritime delimitation with other states in accordance with the provisions of article 76 (10) of the convention.Read Also

Yankees Dust Off the Brooms
The Toronto Blue Jays were the undisputed winners of baseball's off-season. Before opening day, ESPN polled 43 of its baseball experts on which team would win the American League East. The Blue Jays, who had retooled with big trades and signings after yet another dismal fourth-place finish, were chosen by just under 50% of their experts.
The Yankees, who won 95 games and the division crown last season, were only picked on one ballot. Those were the kinds of things the Yankees couldn't help but take stock of.
"It's hard to not notice that," said starter Phil Hughes. "It's talked about so much. First meeting of spring training we talked about that—that it's not going to affect us. And that's been the case."
So far, the Yankees have proved those naysayers wrong in a big way, and they've particularly relished doing it against Toronto, the darling of pundits everywhere. With a 3-2 come-from-behind win Sunday, the Yankees completed a four-game sweep of the Jays and have taken six out of seven from Toronto this season. The Yankees boast a .625 winning percentage—a 101-win pace.
April isn't quite over, but with two more games this month against the woeful Houston Astros, the 15-9 Yankees are about as certain to go 17-9 as a baseball team can be. Manager Joe Girardi said that if someone had told him he might have that kind of record after April, despite all of his injuries, he'd have signed up for that offer in a second. His team has played with a chip on its shoulder, and he likes it.
"It is a group that has something to prove," Girardi said. "There are some guys who are older who have had some down years or some injury-plagued years. There are some younger guys who are trying to establish themselves. They have found a way to make it work, putting them all together, coming together."
Sunday, the Yankees faced reigning NL Cy Young winner R.A. Dickey, who was acquired in December in a trade with the Mets. Dickey was supposed to provide the Jays with an ace. So far, he has been merely average.
But with his team facing the prospect of a sweep, Dickey and his knuckleball delivered. He allowed a solo homer to Brennan Boesch, but otherwise held down the Yankees into the seventh inning, as the Blue Jays clung to a 2-1 lead against Hughes.
When the Yankees' stars—Alex Rodriguez, Mark Teixeira, Curtis Granderson, Derek Jeter—went down with injuries before opening day, Girardi preached that a different player would need to step up every day if the Yankees were to survive.
This time it was Lyle Overbay, the first baseman who signed during the final days of spring training, after he was jettisoned by the Boston Red Sox. Overbay came up against Dickey with one man on base and two out. Earlier in his career, he'd been told that the way to beat a knuckleballer was to swing hard and try to pull something.
That is exactly what he did, pulling Dickey's knuckler over the right-field fence for a home run and a Yankee lead.
A pleasant, aw-shucks kind of guy, Overbay said he just figured it was his turn, since everyone else had done their part carrying the load from day to day.
"It takes the pressure off you a little bit. It's relaxing," he said of the surprisingly balanced Yankee lineup.
The last-place Blue Jays, meanwhile, are reeling and learning what the Yankees did long ago: It isn't easy living with expectations.
"You know what? We aren't good enough," said manager John Gibbons. "It's that simple."

Career Work Assessment Center
Career Steps for Choosing Planning a Career
Career Steps in Choosing a Career includes the following career phases:
Career Situation Problem, Career Assessment Testing, Career Influences Assessment, Career Decision-Making, Career Researching.
- Career Situation Problem of the Career Steps to Choosing a Career is often an overlooked career step yet it is fundamentally important because it determines the degree to which all other career steps are completed. For example, if you dislike almost all aspects of their job, it is best to complete all career steps in choosing a career. But, if you simply dislike your environment, you might only have to complete the "Navigate" phase of career steps in choosing a career.
- Career Assessment Testing of the Career Steps to Choosing a Career assesses your innate natural career abilities, career personality and career interests with the best career assessment tests provided by TestEts.com. This is known as the Nature Phase of Career Steps Model.
- The Career Influence Assessment of the Career Steps in Choosing a Career involves exercises, quizzes and questionnaires to assess expectations, values, needs and skills. This is known as the Nurture Phase of the Career Steps Model.
- Career Decision-making is the Values - Needs - Want Step in the Nurture Phase of the Career Steps Model. It is heavily influenced by past expectations and previously acquired skills and experiences. See the Career Decision Toolkit section of Career Tools for more information about Career Decision Making.
- Career Researching of the Career Steps in Choosing a Career is theProcess Step in the Navigate Phase of the Career Steps Model. While the Process Step appears as a small career step, this single career step can take months to complete. As you research you will fine-tune and readjust your career decision until you settle on a career direction or a career target. See Career Search for links to the best career search websites.
Career Planning Steps is still part of the Career Steps Model.
Most career websites focus on career transition planning or career discovery planning. Career Planning Steps on most career websites are simplifications of the Career Steps Model. Career Planning Steps on these career websites range from 3 career steps to 6 or 7 career steps with the common number being 5 career steps. Only one career website focuses on the action side of career planning steps as The Career Profiler does.
Career Planning Steps according to The Career Profiler is focuses on the second half of the Career Steps Model.
Career Planning Steps begin when a general career decision has been made; and that usually occurs upon completion of the self-assessment career step of Nature and Nurture phase of the Career Steps Model. While Steps in Choosing a Career is an introspective and reflective process requiring quiet and solitude, Career Planning Steps are task oriented, action-driven activities that engage the help of others. Career Planning Steps occur in the Navigate section of the Career Steps Model.
Career Planning Steps start with setting a career goal which depends heavily on the degree of specificity of the career selected.
There are three levels of specificity:
- Career Planning Goal 1: career arena
- Career Planning Goal 2: career clarity
- Career Planning Goal 3: specific career target
Over the years, The Career Profiler has discovered that even though a specific career target is the ultimate desired outcome of self-assessments, one approach doesn't fit all.
Therefore, "customized" career planning steps have been developed for each of the career goals.
- Career Planning Goal 3 for one who readily determines a specific career target, achieving a job in that career becomes the goal. Career planning steps for Career Planning Goal 3 center on tasks that help one achieve a job in that career.
- Career Planning Goal 2 where one is undecided between two or more career options or seeks to find a niche within a career after completing the self-assessment, the career goal is often to obtain greater career clarity so that a single, specific career can be chosen. Subsequent Career Planning Steps focus on more research that includes both computer and field research. Field research is designed not only to gather more detailed information but to establish network contacts for future job searching. Career Planning Steps for Career Planning Goal 2 types often go on to Goal 3 Career Planning Steps.
- Career Planning Goal 1 most often applies to students. After the self-assessment phase, the career goal of this population is usually defined as a career arena. A career arena is by definition a broad, general goal that permits flexibility for future fine-tuning of the goal and allows for further self-awareness as they mature through their college years.

Preservationists Lose Court Appeal Over San Luis Apartments
Categories: Community, Follow That Story
|The San Luis apartments as they appeared last year.
The 1960s-era building was owned by the Archdiocese of St. Louis that razed the building last year to make room for a parking lot. The so-called "Friends of the San Luis" filed suit to block the demolition but the St. Louis Circuit Court dismissed the suit on grounds that the group had no economic interest in the case.
In a 13-page decision, the appellate court ruled that the Friend's case is moot because the building is already torn down. (Daily RFT made a similar ruling last summer.) The court did not rule on the larger question as to whether or not a group with no financial stake in a project can sue to stop the demolition of a historic building.
So, will this be the last we hear about the aesthetically questionable San Luis apartments?
Perhaps not. An attorney for Friends of the San Luis tells St. Louis Public Radio that his group may ask the Missouri Supreme Court to review the case.

West Broward High will use
a system-wide grade
management program called
Pinnacle. One of the most
important features of this
system is the Parent
Internet Viewer. The viewer
allows parents and students
to access grades via the
Internet. This is a
wonderful tool to stay up to
date on how your child is
progressing in his/her
classes. The Viewer allows
you to receive e-mail alerts
when your child's grade
drops below a specified
average or when your child
is absent from class.
You will need your child's
Student Identification
Number and a Pin Code to
access your child's
information. The Student
Identification Number is a
specific county issued
number that appears on your
child's schedule, interim
report and report card. If
you do not have access to
these sources, any of your
child's teachers can give
him/her the number. The Pin
Code is the student's date
of birth. This will be
typed as the year, the month
and the day. For example,
if your child's birthday is
March 5, 1982, you would
type 19820305. Do not use

Last week, the House passed the Credit Cardholders' Bill of Rights Act of 2009, which would create new protections for consumers facing excessive credit card fees, sky-high interest rates, and unfair, incomprehensible credit card company agreements. I voted in favor of the bill. In addition, the House passed with wide bipartisan support an amendment I wrote that would require credit card companies to have a 6-month minimum period for promotional rates, or "teaser" rates, which primarily target college students.
It's that time of year when warmer weather returns and students all across Virginia are preparing for their final tests of the school year while dreaming of their summer vacation.

My column on Lori Berenson, the young American woman held prisoner in Peru, received a rather vicious and judgmental response from my conservative colleague on this page.
Instead of calling him "doctor," as I have in the past, I think he should be called Judge John Barnhart, because he surely sat in severe judgment of this young woman.
President Barack Obama has already taken all the reasonable steps he could to be nice to Cuba.
President Obama reached out to the Cuban government by lifting the Bush administration restrictions on the ability Americans, with relatives in Cuba, to send money to family members there and visit them. He also opened the door for American telecommunications companies to do business there. This, of course, depends on the Cuban government allowing it.
Bedford City Council will consider a request by city staff to increase personal property taxes in the upcoming 2009-2010 budget to help offset funding decreases in other areas.
City Manager Charles Kolakowski presented the staff's working budget to council Tuesday night, which includes the proposed personal property increase, but no increases in the electric rate, the water and sewer rates or the real estate tax rate.

The agent of Sebastian Giovinco has quickly leapt to the defence of his client after some disappointing displays for Juventus.
Giovinco started the campaign well following his return to Turin after two years at Parma, but he struggled to shine in the draws at Chelsea and Fiorentina.
"He has great qualities that should not be called into question," Andrea D'Amico told TMW. "What we must not forget is that he hasn't really had a break given that he was at Euro 2012.
"If he plays some below-par games then that shouldn't set alarm bells ringing. He'll be able to re-find the right intensity with Juventus.
"The problem is that in Italy everything is looked at with a magnifying glass. If things go well then the player is hailed, while he'll immediately get kicked off the pedestal when things go wrong."
Giovinco, 25, has scored two goals in four League appearances which have totalled 356 minutes so far this term.

08/19/03 - Thunder & Troubleshooting
Last night we made it to the proposed MPA site and spent most of the night putting nets and trawls in the water. Activity was halted between 11:30 p.m. and 4 a.m. because of a storm with lightning, but when the sun rose the seas were beginning to calm down.
The morning sub dive got off to a slow start. We have been having problems with the digital camera attached to the front of the sub. It has not been communicating with the laptop inside the sub that is used to control the camera. We got everyone squared away in the sub and the A-frame lifted off the deck of the ship, but before it could be lowered in the water the scientist on board figured out that there was a problem. So the sub was brought back on deck. The technical folks spent about 30 minutes trying to determine the cause of the problem, but were unable to fix it, so the sub dive focused on collecting video footage rather than still images.
The scientists reported seeing many different species of fish, including grouper, reef butterflyfish and big eyes.
In between sub dives we tried fishing with hook and line off the stern. No one caught anything that way. Then we put a Boston Whaler over the side and sent three folks out to fish. Unfortunately they did not catch anything before having to head back to the ship.
The sub went down for the afternoon dive around 4 p.m. It is returning to the area in the MPA to get more video footage and to try to collect some samples.

Shutdown Corner
Sydney Seau will get chance to speak for father at Hall of Fame inductionEric Edholm at Shutdown Corner17 hrs ago
The Pro Football Hall of Fame has reversed field and allowed Sydney Seau to speak at the induction ceremony of her father, the late Junior Seau, after initially saying she could not, according to Fox Sports' Alex Marvez.
The Hall had passed a bylaw in 2010, which prohibited a substitute speaker, such as a family member, for a deceased player being enshrined. Former Los Angeles Rams inductee Les Richter was the first posthumous member to be elected, and his family did not speak on his behalf — something they were fine with.

Hall of Fame profile: Vikings C Mick TingelhoffMorgan J. Wolf at Shutdown Corner18 hrs ago
The Pro Football Hall of Fame's Class of 2015 gets inducted on Aug. 8. Shutdown Corner will profile the eight new Hall of Famers, looking at each of their careers and their impact on the game.
Mick Tingelhoff Minnesota Vikings (1962-1978) Center
Greatest moment
Tingelhoff signed with the Vikings as a free agent after a distinguished career at the University of Nebraska at center. Tingelhoff won the starting job at center during his rookie year and never gave it up until he retired – 17 years later.
Perhaps Tingelhoff's greatest trait was his durability, never missing a game in a career that had 240 of them. He anchored a line that protected NFL legend Fran Tarkenton, allowing the famed quarterback to, at the time, set the all-time record for passing yards. He was also a great run blocker, paving the way for Chuck Foreman to string together three consecutive 1,000-yard seasons between 1975 and 1977.
New Cowboy Greg Hardy donates $300 to help troll the EaglesFrank Schwab at Shutdown Corner18 hrs ago
New Dallas Cowboys defensive end Greg Hardy is trying to endear himself to a new fan base by helping them hate the Philadelphia Eagles.
[Yahoo Sports Fantasy Football: Sign up and join a league todayl]
A Cowboys fan set up a GoFundMe page to raise money to fly a banner over Eagles practice on Aug. 9 that read " WE GOT THE DIVISION " according to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. That was in response to a rumor that Eagles fans planned to fly a banner over Cowboys practice reading "WE GOT DEMARCO," as in former Cowboys running back DeMarco Murray, who joined Philadelphia this offseason.
And the Cowboys fans got a pretty nice donation after asking Hardy if he wanted to kick in. Hardy's Twitter handle is said to be @OverlordKraken, though he hasn't gotten it verified. He gave $300 and posted a picture of the verification.
Shutdown Countdown: Cowboys need a new formula without DeMarco MurrayFrank Schwab at Shutdown Corner21 hrs ago
Shutdown Corner is previewing all 32 teams as we get ready for the NFL season, counting down the teams one per day in reverse order of our initial 2015 power rankings. No. 1 will be revealed on Aug. 8, the day before the preseason begins with the Hall of Fame Game in Canton.
In a long-ago era, like maybe seven or eight years ago, we wouldn't be having this conversation about the Dallas Cowboys and their running backs.
The Dallas Cowboys would have re-signed DeMarco Murray, because running backs were not yet thought of as disposable quantities that you draft, use up and discard. In many ways, NFL teams have gotten smarter about investing resources in running backs. The return is often poor. But the Cowboys are taking that theory to the extreme.
The Cowboys reportedly made a good but not great offer to Murray, and Murray unsurprisingly walked. He signed with the Philadelphia Eagles. That isn't an insignificant loss. Murray was clearly the MVP of the Cowboys' 12-4 NFC East championship season in 2014.
Patriots release damning emails from NFL on leaks of false deflate-gate dataEric Edholm at Shutdown Corner1 day ago
The New England Patriots played a trump card on Friday, releasing a string of emails (on their wellsreportcontext.com site) between club counsel Robyn Glaser and NFL general counsel Jeff Pash that appears to implicate the league of failing to correct blatant misinformation that helped shape the public narrative in the deflate-gate case.
Pash oversaw the investigation by Ted Wells, whose report clearly indicated that the PSI figures for the Patriots' footballs in the AFC championship were nowhere close to the bunk ESPN report that 11 of 12 balls tested by officials that night were 2 PSI or more under the legal limit.
The NFL never set that record straight thereafter, and it was too late. The public already had decided that Tom Brady was a cheater — and a blatant one. By the time Wells' report came out, perception already had become reality, and minds were made.

Peyton Manning looks just fine as Denver Broncos camp opensFrank Schwab at Shutdown Corner1 day ago
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — Peyton Manning dropped back, the pass rush got in his face in a hurry, but he still got the ball out.
Without any time or space to set up, he still got enough on the pass to get it to receiver Cody Latimer right after Latimer turned on his out route. There wasn't a ton of velocity on it, but Manning knew exactly where and when to go with the ball. It wasn't a play made based on physical ability, but smarts and anticipation. Just another completion.
In other words, Manning looked exactly like he has since he got to Denver. He was sharp the whole practice.
"He looked great to me," Broncos receiver Demaryius Thomas said.
Broncos camp opened on Friday with a light practice, and everything revolves around Manning. And, more specifically and humorously enough, all the talk about Manning is about how much less we might see of him with the Broncos this season.

Photos show Jason Pierre-Paul's hand heavily wrapped, arm in slingEric Edholm at Shutdown Corner1 day ago
Even if you're in the a-guy-with-nine-fingers-can-still-play-football camp, you might want to reconsider the idea when you see the latest pictures of Jason Pierre-Paul.
The New York Daily News landed the photo scoop of JPP's damaged right hand, the result of a July 4 fireworks accident, and it certainly doesn't give you the warm fuzzies about his ability to play anytime soon, much less effectively.
EXCLUSIVE PHOTOS: First look at Jason Pierre-Paul after fireworks incident. http://t.co/GDZFp6XjKU pic.twitter.com/QqtccAqpEv
[Yahoo Sports Fantasy Football: Sign up and join a league today!]
The franchise defensive end's thoroughly wrapped right hand and arm supported by a sling (what's that all about?) certainly change the narrative a bit. What's underneath that wrap? How bad is it exactly?
Redskins gamble on Junior Galette with big character risk, small price tagEric Edholm at Shutdown Corner1 day ago
The Washington Redskins are taking a risk in signing troubled Junior Galette, who landed a one-year deal with the team, even though the reward could be significant.
Galette was cut by the New Orleans Saints less than a year after he landed a massive contract extension from the team and was named one of its captains. Off-field issues, including a domestic violence arrest and a disturbing video from 2013 surfacing of Galette hitting a woman with a belt, proved too much for the Saints, who took a massive salary-cap hit before cutting him last week.
The one-year deal, according to Galette's agent, is for the league minimum. That spells out how scared other teams were for a player who notched 22 sacks the past two seasons combined.

Brady won't ask for injunction, wants case resolved by start of seasonFrank Schwab at Shutdown Corner1 day ago
One theme of deflate-gate has been that everything has dragged on too long. The investigation took months, Roger Goodell took five weeks to rule on Tom Brady's appeal, and now we're almost to August and the NFL and NFLPA are going to court.
Both sides finally agree on something: This needs to get resolved by the time the regular season starts.
According to the Boston Herald, Brady's NFLPA-appointed lawyer Jeffrey Kessler wrote a letter to U.S. District Court Judge Richard Berman asking him to resolve the case by Sept. 4. The Patriots start the season on Sept. 10. Brady is fighting a four-game suspension in the deflate-gate scandal that was upheld by Goodell on Tuesday.

No hesitation: Lovie Smith names Jameis Winston Buccaneers' starting QBEric Edholm at Shutdown Corner1 day ago
Bad news, Seth Lobato fans: Jameis Winston will be the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' starting quarterback, per head coach Lovie Smith.
"Jameis Winston will be our starting quarterback," Buccaneers coach Lovie Smith said Friday. "He'll take first reps tomorrow. We're excited about that."
"It's what we already knew, what we saw in camp, what he has done on and off the field here."
[Yahoo Sports Fantasy Football: Sign up and join a league today!]
Winston was the first pick in the NFL draft, and the Buccaneers' only other quarterbacks on the roster are Mike Glennon (whom the Bucs have dangled in trade talks in the past) and the aforementioned Lobato, he of the zero career pass attempts.
Smith said he wouldn't have made this move — especially this soon — if he didn't think Winston was ready. The early reports are that Winston has done everything he needs to, preparation-wise, and that he's winning over his teammates to date, which would back up Smith's quick decision.

The 20-year-old spent last season with Middlesbrough, while his last appearance for Chelsea, in January 2012, preceded a loan move to Swansea City.
The England Under-21 international progressed through Chelsea's youth system to make his first-team debut in a Champions League tie against Zilina in September 2010.
Currently with the Chelsea squad on the club's pre-season tour of Asia, McEachran is waiting to speak to Mourinho about where his new boss may see his immediate future.
"I'm a Chelsea player and my dream as a kid was to play for Chelsea, so I want to play for them this season," McEachran told Sky Sports News.
"But if the boss wants me to go out on loan I'll have to listen to him and go out. It's down to him.
"He said he would speak to me while we were in Asia so I'll wait for then.
"Hopefully it would be to a Premier League team, but I wouldn't mind going to a Championship team either."

Woman arrested in credit card fraud
Jessica Herman, 27, of Green Creek was arrested Thursday on seven counts of identity theft and second counts of obtaining property under false pretense.
Investigators received an anonymous tip after a picture from surveillance video asking for help in identifying the suspect on Tuesday was printed in the newspaper. Shortly following receiving the tip, additional information regarding a purchase with the card was received in which they had been waiting for substantiated the tip.
Detectives with the sheriff's office had been working the case involving the fraudulent transactions which stemmed through Polk, Rutherford, and Spartanburg counties. This has been an ongoing investigation since January.
Information obtained in the investigation will be forwarded to Rutherford County and Spartanburg County where Herman could face additional charges.
Herman turned herself in to sheriff's office detectives where she went before the magistrate and was given a $2,000 bond. She had her first court appearance Friday at the Polk County Courthouse

State Your Opinion: Why So Many Student Loan Defaults?

State Your Opinion: Why So Many Student Loan Defaults?
Disturbing student loan default rates were published by the Education Department in the past year. For-profit colleges account for a major share of student loan defaults when compared to public or private colleges. The chart below illustrates the big difference.
|2 years into repayment
|For Profit College
|Private College
|Public College
But Wait, There's More!
The study further reveals that three years into repayment, the default rate of students at for-profit colleges almost doubles to 21.2%! In other words, 1 out of 5 loans goes bad – that's a lot of taxpayer dollars going into the toilet.
|Post Your Opinion
Click here to share your opinion as to why students attending for-profit colleges such as Phoenix University Online have such a high default rate on student loans compared to students going to public state colleges or private schools.
Severe Consequences Of Default
When you stop making payments on a student loan from the government, things can go from bad to worse. First, the loan balance becomes immediately due. Eventually, the government can garnish your wages and withhold your tax refunds. Face it, one way or another the government will get its money back.
Discuss this post
They default cause they can – college costs so much because of the student loans in the first place. Colleges charge what ever because the the Feds will gaurantee the loan – take that away and see what happens to the cost of college.Thirty years ago it was not hard to work your way through – try that now. As usual the government is the enemy.
I went to a great school that was very expensive. I got my master's degree in mental health counseling with a ton of loans to make it through. Unfortunately, this career does not pay much and it is difficult to make loan payments on the wages that have been available for the amount of work put in for the degree. It is so unfortunate because is is a field most people go into because of a sincere desire to help others, and then the stresses of not being able to repay loans becomes overwhelming with no hope of decent salaries in the near future.
My daughter was attending DeVry University and had straight A's. Unfirtunately my husbnad lost his job for 11 months and DeVry immediately kicked my daughter out with even attenmpting to help her to get a student loan. My husband and I ended up losing our home and my straight A daughter was locked out of her studies at DeVry. They immediately turned her in so she would be in default for her student loans and she cannot find a job because there ARE NO JOBS so that is why she defaulted and we cannot pay iot for her. I would encourage all students to avoid scam Universities like DeVry and Strayer, etc… as they chard twice qwhat they should and they are a rip off.
Robin Newnam, RN
Having had a student loan myself, I know first-hand the things that can happen to cause a student to default on a college loan. Students are supposed to pay back loans once they graduate; however, the colleges are further assuming that the student will be able to find work soon after graduating which is simply not
the case. Recent surveys show that many college graduates are not able to find jobs in their chosen degree field, or can't find a job at all. With the economy in such a terrible state, college graduates are having an even more difficult time making ends meet even if they have a job. All these things combined might cause people to default on college loans. This happened to me until I moved overseas to the Czech Republic where I found plenty of work and could live on much less income. Perhaps graduating students should consider living overseas.
Instructor can sometimes show favoritism &students see that all are treated fairly.
there are so many loan defaults,because the economy sucks worse than it did in the depression days.At least back then everyone worked toward making a better future.Politicians today work towards destroying the ruins we ourselves crumbled.
I made a HUGE mistake by deciding to go to a For Profit College. I attended IADT in Orlando. The problem with these schools is that most people don't get a good return on their investment…I spent almost $90,000 on tuition at this school! If I were a doctor I'd be fine, but, I'm not…so now I have a useless degree, I'm struggling paycheck to paycheck and I'm so mad at myself for going to that stupid school when I could have easily obtained the same degree at a state college for a fraction of the cost. I don't blame anyone but myself…that being said it's been a VERY expensive lesson. If I could declare Bankruptcy I would…
