Mexican artist Pedro Reyes received 6,700 destroyed weapons from the Mexican government from which he sculpted two groups of instruments. The first, a series titled Imagine, is an orchestra of fifty instruments, from flutes to string and percussion instruments, designed to be played live. The second, Disarm, is an installation of mechanical musical instruments, which can either be automated or played live by an individual operator using a laptop computer or midi keyboard.

To disappear into thin air / leave without informing anyone of your departure or being seen by anyone, particularly on a night out socialising. Word is derived from the character 'Keyser Soze' from the Usual Suspects, defined by his mysteriousness and ability to disappear without a trace. The trend of pulling a kaizer is viewed with respect by drinking buddies rather than ridicule and indeed people applaud individuals who leave in this manner.
'Where did Collie go last night?'

Utah State University-College of Eastern Utah will commemorate its founding on Oct. 15 in celebration of its 73-year education legacy that will include an important announcement pertaining to the future growth of the college and the greater Price community.
The event in the Jennifer Leavitt Student Center will honor 15 individuals among college donors, alumni and community members will be recognized for their support and contributions to the USU Eastern legacy.
"The college's first president, Eldon B. Sessions, described a 'bright and productive' future that was in store for Carbon College," said Joe Peterson, USU Eastern chancellor. "It is a privilege to take up that torch, to honor those traditions and to be keeper of a flame that shines even brighter than it did 73 years ago."
Those to be honored include: Dennis and Susan Deaton; Michael and Clyda Harrison; the LaVell and Mayzell King family and Grady and Jeanne McEvoy who are being recognized for their giving to the college. Athletic Hall of Fame recipients include LaDona Richmond Rukavina and Jared Fernandez. This year's "Upon Their Shoulders Award" goes to Vicki Rinaldi-Kulow and Steven Belnap. And Outstanding Alumni Awards will be given to Joe and JoAnn Goodrich and Neil Warren.
A reception begins at 6 p.m. with dinner and awards to follow at 6:30 p.m. Faculty, staff, students and community members are invited to attend the celebration. Cost is $25 per person. Those attending should RSVP by calling 613-5256 by Oct. 10.
Here is a brief synopsis of those being honored.
Dennis and Susan Deaton both graduated with honors from the college in 1970. Susan Deaton was named Outstanding Freshman Student in 1969. Dennis Deaton was a member of the baseball team, the debate and forensics team and editor of the yearbook.
Michael and Clyda Harrison. Both attended the college from 1971 to 1972. All three of their children attended as well. They established the Michael and Clyda Harrison scholarship in 2006 to help students working towards a bachelor's degree. To date they have helped six students achieve their academic goals.
LaVell King married  Mayzell while he was a freshman at the college in 1951. Mayzell graduated from the college the same year as their oldest son. After moving away for a brief while, they returned to Price where LaVell taught at the college for 36 years as a professor in biology.
Grady and Jeanne McEvoy. Grady has been with the college for 24 years teaching in the Theatre Department. Â Jeanne currently serves as councilwoman for the Price City Council. They have been avid supporters of the college, particularly through donations to the Geary Theatre Challenge.
LaDona Richmond Rukavina was a member of the Mitchell Mummies fast pitch softball team in the late 1940s. The team represented Carbon County in many tournaments throughout the Intermountain states. Now at the age of 81, she still makes a mark on the golf course.
Jared Fernandez attended the college from 1991-92 and went on to play professional baseball for 14 years, including with the Boston Red Sox, Cincinnati Reds and the Houston Astros. He made the Olympic team in 2000 before suffering a broken arm. He's the only pitcher in history to win a major league game and a minor league game on the same day.
Vicki Rinaldi-Kulow started at CEU in 1977 as a clerk in shipping and receiving. She eventually graduated from the college in 1991, was accepted in a new master's degree program through USU distance education and went on to serve as the college's director of Purchasing/Motor Pool and EEO officer until retiring in 2009.
Steven Belnap started his career at the college working with Ted Jensen in the college's business office. He continued in that capacity, including work in computer services, for 42 years.
 Joe and JoAnn Goodrich are both graduates of the college who went on to lead successful careers. Joe worked as an engineer and plant manager with Utah Power and Light, Pacific Power and Scottish Power. JoAnn was a teacher of the hearing impaired and eventually directed Deaf Services for Southern Utah with the Utah School for the Deaf. Since retirement they have engaged in many humanitarian services around the world including work in Egypt in a leprosy colony that involved installation of a clean water system; teaching English in China and volunteer teaching in a remote school in Alaska.
Neil L. Warren, professor emeritus at the college, was a student first before beginning his teaching career at the college in 1955. He is well known for his success with the college's debate program that included 24 national championship first place awards. During his career he taught speech, drama and American literature. His awards include the "Regents Award for Excellence in Teaching" in 1978; "Community College Teacher of the Year" in 1992.

Daily News: Rock Bottom Mets
Really? 4-9 is rock bottom? By the way, in case you didn't know, there are 162 games in a season, leaving 149 yet to be played.
Speaking of premature, irrational reactions…
The best news of the day today might be from WFAN host and entertainer Mike Francesa, who said on air that today will be the last day he talks about the Mets, because the team is awful and their season is over.
"We're probably not going to be talking about the Mets much in the next month," he proclaimed. "Let them go on their losing ways."
Frankly, I'm not even sure he's totally incorrect in some of his criticisms of the team, though some of it is premature. In either case, I'm happy he's moving on. I hope he sticks to this statement.

His message was simple. But it also carried weight.
"With each package you assemble, you're telling a soldier you care and that you remember and honor his or her service and sacrifice," Muhtar Kent, Chairman and CEO of The Coca-Cola Company, told his employees. "And that's a very worthy and honorable thing."
Kent paid a visit to the hundreds of Coca-Cola employees who volunteered to stuff 10,000 USO care packages for our nation's deployed troops last Wednesday at the soft drink giant's Atlanta headquarters.
After applauding and thanking the veterans in the room, Kent discussed how proud Coca-Cola is to partner with the USO, a relationship that began in 1941 during World War II when Coca-Cola committed to providing every man and woman in uniform a bottle of Coca-Cola for just a nickel. Since that time, hundreds of thousands of service members have received Coca-Cola beverages in USO Centers around the world.
"Today, we continue proudly a tradition that started many decades ago," Kent said. "Thanks to everyone here we are able to share a bit of home with those brave men and women now protecting our families and our lives in distant, often dangerous places around the world."
The Coca-Cola Company's passion for supporting our nation's service members, through its partnership with the USO, was also visible on the faces of the smiling volunteers, who worked tirelessly throughout the day. Many discussed their hope to stuff even more care packages next year.
Tooth brushes, hand warmers, popcorn and batteries were just some of the items placed in the care packages, which will be delivered to troops throughout the holiday season.
"Every year we get more and more done," said Melanie Bollinger, a Coca-Cola senior manager whose father served in the Army during the Vietnam War. She mentioned she thinks of him each time she puts a care package together. "People have spread the word about how much fun it is and what a great feeling it is to put these packages together."

Think you may have a squirrel control problem? Critter Control in Maine can effectively help you assess your squirrel situation, while eliminating the cause and keeping you well informed through the entire process.
The most common complaint associated with squirrels is noise. Our squirrel control customers in Maine will hear noises within their homes, typically at sunrise. At first light, squirrels will begin to scurry around, looking for food. Occasionally, customers will find the entry point from the outside – the hole where the squirrels are getting into the home – but typically the first signs of a squirrel control situation are the irritating noises they make in the early hours of the morning.
When customers in Maine call us, we ask them a series of questions to help determine if and what type of squirrel control is necessary. It is important for customers to track what time of day they are hearing noises, how long they have been hearing noises and in what area of the home or building they are hearing noises so we can implement the most ideal squirrel control plan.
Squirrels will enter buildings for shelter and nesting. Squirrels in Maine have litters of babies in the spring and in the fall, and commonly end up in the attics of buildings. If squirrel control is not implemented immediately when the squirrel situation is identified, the population of squirrels living in or around a building will continue to grow. Every time a new litter grows up and leaves the nest, they begin to look for places to build their own nests, which often ends up being in other areas of the building. It is important to implement squirrel control in your Maine home or business in order to prevent large populations of squirrels. If squirrels are ignored, Critter Control of Maine may find holes in every corner of your home!
When squirrels invade your home or business in Maine, they can cause significant damage. Inside buildings, they tend to chew on wires and destroy insulation in attics and walls. On the outside, they damage siding, gutters and construction gaps by chewing holes for access inside.
The most effective method of squirrel control is trapping them. Critter Control of Maine will set traps to catch the squirrels around your home or business. We then monitor every hole to ensure there are no squirrels still coming and going. Once we have removed all squirrels from the building, we will seal the entry points.
For an alternative to trapping, contact Critter Control in Maine to see if CritterSafe squirrel control is available.
If you have been hearing scratching sounds in your home or business, Critter Control can help! Contact your local Critter Control office for professional squirrel control services in Maine today at 1-800-CRITTER.

2012 DRAFT PROFILE – Tom Wilson, F, Plymouth (OHL)
Each week until the entry draft in June, Point Blank will be reporting on the top prospects in this summer's NHL Entry Draft. This week's profile is forward Tom Wilson, ranked as the 15th best North American skater in the final CSS rankings. You can keep a watch on our profiles via the "2012 Draft" tab at the top of the page and check out profiles of Islanders' young guns filed under the "NYI Prospects" tab.
Despite failing to reach the playoffs for a fifth consecutive season, the 2011-12 campaign did provide a record-setting moment for one New York Islander. Third-year forward Matt Martin's 374 hits not only bested Los Angeles Kings forward Dustin Brown's 293 for tops in the NHL, it also eclipsed Minnesota's Cal Clutterbuck's previous NHL high-water mark of 356, set back in the 2008-09 season. Yet, there were many-a-night in which the Windsor, Ontario native was left alone on a proverbial island, forced to fend for himself against an opponent's enforcer or two.
Stressing a dire need to add necessary bulk to its hockey club, the Islanders organization spent three of its first four selections in last year's NHL Entry Draft on skillful teens with size – 6-foot-4, 205-pound defenseman Scott Mayfield, picked in the second round (34th overall), followed by 6-foot-3, 205-pound forward Johan Sundstrom, also chosen in the second round (50th overall) , concluding with 6-foot-4, 201-pound defenseman Andrey Pedan, chosen in the third round (63rd overall).
With an eye towards this June's NHL Entry Draft in Pittsburgh, the Islanders organization – selecting fourth overall – will have its choice of either adding another top-six forward to its stable of raw, yet highly-touted core of forwards – Leksands IF (SWE) winger Filip Forsberg, Quebec (QMJHL) center Mikhail Grigorenko and Sarnia (OHL) center Alex Galchenyuk are all viable options – or address a pressing need on the blue-line – Everett (WHL) defenseman Ryan Murray, Red Deer (WHL) blue-liner Matthew Dumba or Moose Jaw (WHL) rear-guarder Morgan Rielly have all been mentioned as potential top-five picks.
Nevertheless, other than Dumba – undersized at six-foot, 185 pounds – the aforementioned candidates being bandied about as a prospective selectee with that fourth pick all lack that imposing presence, necessary for the Islanders to compete in the physically-imposing Atlantic Division.
Would a trade out of its present draft slot to select either Edmonton (WHL) rugged defenseman Griffin Reinhart, standing 6-foot-4, 205-pounds, or USNTDP stay-at-home defenseman Jacob Trouba, standing 6-foot-2, 205-pounds, benefit the Islanders organization in the long run? Or could general manager Garth Snow stand pat at #4 and revert back to his trading ways at the tail end of the 2010 Entry Draft – selected Warroad High School forward Brock Nelson with the 30th pick – and trade up into the latter part of June's opening round to find a hidden jewel?
Plymouth's (OHL) Tom Wilson, the 6-foot-4, 205-pound power-forward, born in Toronto, could be that exact diamond in the rough.
"I'm a big, physical guy, who likes to keep things simple," said Wilson, who patterns his own game after Boston Bruins imposing winger Milan Lucic. "My biggest strength is my size, and while I am presently 205 pounds, I definitely want to get bigger.
"When I thicken out, I will be able to play at 215-to-220 pounds."
Wilson, who turned 18 back in March, followed an impressive CHL/NHL Prospects Camp back in February in Kelowna, British Columbia with a scoring surge during Plymouth's postseason run.
Considered a fringe first-round selection at the start of the 2011-12 Ontario Hockey League season, TSN's Craig Button has pegged Wilson as his 22nd best prospect.
"The prospect camp was a great opportunity for me to play with and learn from some great hockey players," said Wilson, whose prospect camp highlight included a throw-down with fellow 2012 draft hopeful Dalton Thrower of the Saskatoon Blades. "I played with World Juniors Captain Ryan Murray, who was soft spoken, but taught me a lot. Our coach was (former Pittsburgh Penguin standout) Mark Recchi, who played in the NHL for 22 years and won three Stanley Cups."
Recchi, who coached Team Cherry, was equally impressed with Wilson's make-up. He shared his thoughts with the Canadian Press, following his team's 2-1 setback to Team Orr.
"Wilson was ready to roll tonight, but I think the whole competitive nature of the game was unbelievable," said Recchi. "Wilson got out there and wanted to set the tone physically, and I think it set the tone a lot for the game."
After imposing his will in Kelowna, Wilson returned to Plymouth to finish off his second OHL season.
As a rookie, Wilson only managed to collect six points – three goals and three assists – in 28 games, registering 71 penalty minutes. He greatly improved his productivity in his sophomore campaign, scoring 27 points – nine goals and 18 assists – in 49 games, while racking up a team-high 141 penalty minutes.
"I greatly improved my vision – playing on the right wing – from my rookie season," said Wilson, whose introduction to hockey began on a backyard yard rink at age 2. "But the one area of the game that I still need to improve on is my overall speed.
"It's not only just the foot speed or hand speed, but doing things at full speed is so important when you get to the next level. Everyone is so fast. You can have speed or fast hands, but learning how to put that all together when you are flying down the wing is so important. I'm working on my puck protection and accelerating out of the zone and creating chances around the net and using my size as I get more experience. That's probably the biggest thing, putting it all together."
Wilson's diligence in honing his overall game paid handsomely during the Whalers' postseason run. Seeded second in the Western Conference, Plymouth defeated seventh-seeded Guelph in the opening round, four-games-to-two. Unfortunately, Plymouth's run would be derailed by third-seeded Kitchener, as the Whalers dropped a hard-fought seven-game series, losing the seventh and deciding game, 6-3 at home.
In his 13 postseason games, Wilson collected 13 points – seven goals and six assists. He also led all Whalers with a plus-10, while racking up a team-high 39 penalty minutes.
"He's (Wilson) a James Neal type in my opinion," said current Whalers coach and general manager Mike Vellucci, who spent a better part of 10 professional hockey league seasons in the American, International and East Coast Hockey Leagues. "He fights. He fights more than Nealer did, but he can definitely score.
"He can fore-check. And one of the best things he does is body checking. He's a phenomenal body checker."
Wilson, who began playing competitive hockey – as a six-year old – for local Blessed Sacrament in Toronto, would spend his next nine years playing locally for three organizations – North Toronto Select (ages 8-to-10), North Toronto 'AA' Hockey (ages 11-to-13) and finally for Junior Canadian 'AAA' Hockey in the Greater Toronto Hockey League (ages 14-to-16). He was selected in the second round (27th overall) of the OHL Draft by Plymouth.
"I only heard stories – from my dad – about how much I loved every second that I spent on the ice … the first time," recollects Wilson, who decided at age 12 to give up playing competitive soccer to focus solely on hockey. "And now, with the draft just a couple months away, it would be simply unbelievable to put on any team's jersey.
"I know that I will never be outworked, and will always be very competitive."
The NHL Draft is just 44 days away.

Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania

Presenter: R. Komaki
Presenter's Affiliation: MD Anderson Cancer Center
Type of Session: Scientific
In the United States, concurrent chemotherapy and radiation therapy is standard for unresectable NSCLC. However, there is significantly increased toxicity with concurrent radiochemotherapy as opposed to sequential treatment. There has also been evidence that esophageal toxicity can be reduced when 2D versus 3D treatment planning is utilized, but still remains very high. Protons, due to the better dose distribution, may further reduce toxicity particularly in the era of concurrent chemotherapy and radiation therapy. This study reports on the acute toxicity in the initial patients treated with combined chemotherapy and proton therapy for NSCLC.
Materials and Methods
Author's Conclusions
Clinical/Scientific Implications
Although preliminary, this study makes an important contribution to the understanding of the combination of chemotherapy and proton therapy. Although a formal statistical comparison was not performed, acute toxicity of combined modality treatment was not increased by giving proton therapy to substantially higher doses then 3D conformal treatment. This is an important concept with moving forward with proton therapy. Proton therapy by itself will most likely not show significant improvements in survival. It is the combination of protons with chemotherapy and targeted biologic agents have the promise to make substantial impacts in overall survival and improve cancer care. We are currently very limited in our ability to combine a number of radiosensitizing chemotherapy agents due to the tolerance of normal tissues to radiation therapy. Proton therapy may completely change this paradigm.

Pasta alfredo doesn't have to be packed with fat. The sour cream in this homemade alfredo sauce is the secret ingredient for making a low fat alfredo dish you'll love to eat, without the guilt.
In a large pot, boil water over high heat. (Use just enough water to cover pasta, once you add it to the pot.) When water is boiling, add pasta and reduce heat to medium. Simmer uncovered until water is very shallow (about 10 minutes). Add all other ingredients, reduce to low heat, cover with the lid cracked and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and uncover the pot until the sauce begins to thicken.
It seems like my family eats out a lot more when we start to exercise and I think this is because we don't treat ourselves to our favorite flavors at home. I imagine that we feel guilty adding the amount of salt to home-cooked foods that our body craves, especially when we are sweating more and drinking more water. This homemade alfredo sauce recipe was invented for a volleyball player in my family who loves pasta alfredo but needs to watch her weight. The substitution of sour cream for the traditional cheese and the olive oil for the usual butter makes a low fat alfredo that keeps her satisfied and guilt-free!

News: Korpikoski Traded To Coyotes For Enver Lisin
(Update 8:30) From the Coyotes website. More confirmation.
Click "Read More" below to watch Enver Lisin highlights. At the 1:10 mark he scores against the Rangers.
So now that the deal is official, it seems like a good deal for the Rangers. Korpi showed skill but was a limited player. He can/will be a very good NHL player but in that Blair Betts way, with a little more scoring ability. Lisin seems like a scorer and it appears that with the move Glen Sather is making, he doesn't want this team to have the problem it did last year. Lisin has talent and he seems to be progressing each year, this could be another situation where John Tortorella could make him a player. This, should mean the end of Nik Zherdev, but again, nothing is confirmed until he has gone somewhere else.
(Update 8:18) Maloney confirms the deal and says that the Rangers acquire Enver Lisin, a restricted free agent.
Lisin had 13 goals and eight assists last season for Phoenix in 48 games.
He is 6-1 190lbs and was drafted 50th overall in 2004. He was sandwiched around Rangers picks 48, Dane Byers and pick 51, Bruce Grahm. Ten picks ahead of Brandon Dubinsky.
Lisin, 23, is a native of Moscow.

Its not good to make snap judgments on rumors, but James Mirtle reports, via twitter, that the Rangers may have traded Lauri Korpikoski to Phoenix.
If true, Phoenix is an obvious choice because GM Don Maloney, loved Korpikoski and pushed for the Rangers to draft him when he was the Rangers assistant GM.
Will report more if/when more comes available.
Acquire Enver Lisin from Coyotes
New York, July 13, 2009 – New York Rangers President and General Manager Glen Sather announced today that the club has acquired forward Enver Lisin from the Phoenix Coyotes in exchange for forward Lauri Korpikoski.
Lisin, 23, skated in 48 games with Phoenix last season, registering 13 goals and eight assists for 21 points, along with 24 penalty minutes. He established career-highs in games played, goals, assists, points, penalty minutes, game-winning goals (two), and shots (105). Lisin tied for second on the team in even strength goals (12), tied for third in goals scored at home (eight), and tied for fifth in total goals. He posted four multi-point performances, including a career-high, three-point effort on March 30 against Dallas (two goals and one assist). In addition, Lisin recorded six points (two goals and four assists) in 10 games with the San Antonio Rampage of the American Hockey League (AHL) this past season.
The 6-2, 200 pounder has skated in 78 career regular season games in three seasons for the Phoenix Coyotes, registering 18 goals and 10 assists for 28 points, along with 46 penalty minutes. Lisin made his NHL debut on October 14, 2006 at Nashville, and recorded his first career point with an assist in his next game on October 17, 2006 at St. Louis.
Lisin has also appeared in 70 career AHL contests with San Antonio, collecting 20 goals and 23 assists for 43 points, along with 36 penalty minutes. In 2007-08, Lisin established AHL career-highs in games played (58), goals (16), assists (19), and points (26). He also posted a career-best, seven-game scoring streak from November 27 vs. Milwaukee to December 14 against Quad City, registering eight points (three goals and five assists) over the span.
In addition, Lisin skated in 116 career contests with Kazan Ak-Bars of the Russian Super League (RSL), recording 21 goals and 11 assists for 32 points, along with 48 penalty minutes.

The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) is under heavy fire after an investigation by the Population Research Institute (PRI) showed yet again that the UN is working with the communist dictatorship ruling mainland China to enforce its barbaric "one-child" policy — complete with forced abortions, involuntary sterilization, kidnapping of "illegal" children, and other brutal tactics. The evidence of UN complicity in the atrocious human rights violations is undeniable, according to PRI President Steven Mosher (pictured), who said U.S. taxpayers should permanently halt funding to the global anti-population agency.
Testifying before the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on Human Rights and International Programs this week, Mosher and several other witnesses described the mass abuses being perpetrated by the UNFPA and its communist partners in Beijing. Also offering testimony was a victim of the Chinese regime's "population control" who was kidnapped by the "family planning" officials before having her baby murdered in cold blood.
American law prohibits spending taxpayer money on initiatives or organizations that support or participate in forced abortions. But because President Obama restored U.S. government funding for the UN population body in 2009, American taxpayers are again helping to finance the mass slaughter. For the 2012 budget, the administration sought almost $50 million for the UN agency. But the outcry is growing.
"Our conclusion is that the UNFPA is directly responsible for forced abortions and forced sterilizations in China," Mosher told lawmakers in prepared remarks, citing an investigation carried out over the last three years. "China's one-child policy constitutes the longest-running and most far-reaching violation of human rights the world has ever seen. Four hundred million Chinese children are missing because of this policy."

Comments about Outdoor Research Virtuoso Hoody (Men's):
I used this jacket during my New Years hike in the George Washington National Forest (VA) and it worked out perfectly! We camped at the top of a Knob and the temp. dropped to around 25 degrees, the winds gusted up to about 40 mph. I wanted to test out how cold I would get if I just wore my base layer underneath...I literally didnt get cold AT ALL! I also had on a cotton balaclava. When I put on the hood my head was getting HOT! The draw strings around the waist helped keep the heat in and the hand warmers in the pockets were great! I used a 5L stuff sack and it fit inside with no prob. Highly recommend this jacket!

Due to a lack of funds, James P. Pennypacker (a shady accountant) announces that he'll have to shut down "The Best Little Theater in Town." That's when the theater's owner Mrs. Goodman, popular director Cecille Deville, and the tightly-knit cast go into action! Two Narrators pave the way as they discuss the elements of a classic musical theater production in this fun-filled "play within a play." Watch the story unfold as this small town theater company struggles to make ends meet. There's plenty of drama, and more than enough comedy in this fabulous theatrical score and entertaining book. Why not make your stage "The Best Little Theater in Town" this year? Recommended for grades 4 and up. Also appropriate for adult performance, excellent for educational "children's theater" productions. Performance Time: Approximately 35 minutes. Staging Suggestions included.

This was going to be a post about performance of Mets' farmhands out in the desert in the Arizona Fall League, but instead it turned into a post about league itself.
I was going to apply the usual AFL caveat that this is an extreme hitters' league and thus, one should treat the numbers produced by both hitters and pitchers with a light touch, or normalize them for league values. Then I looked at the numbers. The AFL is still is absolutely a hiters' league, but it is less so than in recent years.
This year, the AFL is hitting a collective .266/.344/.397 and scoring 5.2 runs per game. That's roughly comparable in terms of scoring to the 2012 version of the Pacific Coast League (.278/.345/.430; 5.1 R/G), but with a little less power. However, it is the lowest level of offense for the AFL in the last five years. The AFL's isoloated slugging, a measure of power, is down to its lowest level in eight years (before that the data is scattered and hard to collect). On a year over year basis, AFL scoring is down 13%.
[sny-table rowheader=true columnheader=true]
What's going on here? I do not know, although I'm open to suggestions. Some potential explanations follow.
- The league's season is only two weeks old and this is just a dreaded small sample size blip. By November, the AFL's power and scoring numbers will be right back to their recent historical levels. This we can test by waiting a month.
- Perhaps teams are sending younger, less experienced and thus less powerful prospects to the AFL. The Mets' delegation this year is a strong example of this. Among the position players, the Mets sent two outfielders from Advanced-A (Darrell Ceciliani and Cesar Puello) and an infielder from low-A (Dustin Lawley). There is not a single regular season AA plate appearance among this group. (This too is testable by comparing the average age of the players in this year's AFL delegations to year's past.)
- The decline is a reflection of the overall decline in offense in baseball at the MLB level. (This is testable too – do AFL scoring and power levels track those in MLB closely?)
I'm open to other explanations as well.

Its been years in the making, but on Tuesday night, the push to arm the majority of Jefferson Countys 31 probation officers appeared to have reached a tipping point with an endorsement from the Board of Legislators General Services Committee that will begin the process of bringing the idea to fruition.
Probation Director Edward E. Brown has been promoting the safety measure since the 1980s and said it felt awesome to finally see the proposal take a big step forward, though it wont change the way the department does business.
This is just one more tool. Were not going to be busting down doors. Well still have the Sheriffs Department execute our warrants, but now they wont have to protect us in addition to themselves, Mr. Brown said after the meeting.
The main justification for the measure is the demographics of the county have changed and the job is more dangerous now than it was in the 70s when I first started, Mr. Brown said.
With jail overcrowding, more and more violent offenders are being placed on probation instead of being incarcerated, often contrary to the recommendation of probation officers, according to Mr. Brown.
Of the countys 31 probation officers, 18 have indicated they would like to carry firearms while performing their duties.
The department now has five Glock .40-caliber pistols.
The resolution will next appear before the boards Finance and Rules Committee, which will work out the numbers associated with the plan.
If the measure is recommended by Finance and Rules and approved by the full board, the Probation Department plans to buy 13 more pistols to arm all 18 officers who have expressed interest.
Officers wishing to carry a firearm would have to pass a two-week intensive training course and a psychological evaluation.
If an officer fails the training course, he or she would have two more chances to take it before waiting six months to try again.
The psychological evaluation would cost $300 per officer. Carrying firearms would add roughly $3,000 to the countys annual insurance expenses.
The measures price tag will be between $20,000 and $22,000, according to County Administrator Robert F. Hagemann III.
Probation officers in 31 of New Yorks 62 counties already carry firearms and three more are in the process of approving their use, Mr. Brown said.
In addition, federal probation officers and parole officers carry firearms and perform the same job as county probation officers.
Many people think we currently carry, Mr. Brown said.
The department already has two firearms instructors on staff, and half of the probation officers have permits to carry as private citizens but cannot carry while on the job, Mr. Brown said.
The policy would not be mandatory, but if a probation officer elected to carry a firearm, he or she would be required to carry it while on duty.
Mr. Brown has already signed a letter of understanding with the Civil Service Employees Association on the issue.
Technically, the probation director is authorized by law to arm his officers and doesnt need legislators approval. Mr. Brown said he would never exercise that right without their blessing.
I just wouldnt do it, he said.
General Services Committee Chairman Philip N. Reed, R-Fishers Landing, acknowledged the issues sensitivity.
No one is taking this lightly. Weve all put a great deal of thought into this, opening up the floor for questions from other committee members.
Legislator Scott A. Gray, R-Watertown, asked why the policy wouldnt be mandatory, especially because it had been construed as a safety issue.
Mr. Brown said employees werent hired under the assumption they would have to possess a firearm and it would be unfair to require them to carry. A form noting an employee had declined to carry would reduce any liability issues that might arise if an employee encountered a dangerous situation but had chosen not to have a pistol.
Legislator Anthony J. Doldo, R-Watertown, voiced unequivocal support for the measure, saying, These officers have every right to carry to protect themselves. Id like to move this through.
The motion to endorse the plan came from Legislator Michael W. Behling, R-Adams.
It will go before the Finance and Rules Committee in two weeks.

I have always had good results on my orders with OTC.
This cream makes my skin look beautiful, healthy. It keeps my skin super soft,the smell is absolutely wonderful.
love this product! I just started using it and I already feel the softness on my face. I look forward to putting it every night.
i have battled red, dry, flaky parts of skin on my face since puberty hit; particularly the folds of my nose and my eyebrow area(s). at 28 years old, i had literally tried everything over-the-counter intended for use on sensitive skin. they only made my situation worse, so i avoided washing my face altogether and just relied on a prescription steroid cream for the frequent flare-ups i endured. i was afraid of getting my face wet at all because when it would dry, my sensitive areas would be redder, drier, and flakier than before. my dermatologist told me that it is essential to wash my face of dirt and grime daily. when i told him about my problems, he told me about aquanil. not only is aquanil the ONLY product i've ever used that didn't worsen my problem areas, it's the ONLY product i've used that's actually helped them! in conjunction with a lighter prescription cream which i apply once a week, i use aquanil every morning when i shower (and sometimes before i go to bed if i've been particularly active and sweating during the day). i cannot tell you how much this product has literally changed my life. the persistent and seemingly unending red blotches and flakes i lived with for 15 years are all but gone (occasionally, the folds of my nose will still flare-up, but only during seasonal/weather changes - and the aquanil knocks them out in 48 hours). if you've had similar trial-and-error disappointments with alleged "sensitive skin" cleansers like i had, worry no more and look no further than aquanil.
