Is a 4 run complete game not considered a quality start?

The Louisiana State Legislature has given its final approval to a bill that affirms the right of students to hold prayer meetings in the state's public schools. On June 1 the state Senate voted unanimously in favor of House Bill 724, which was previously approved by the state Assembly. Introduced in the Senate by Democrat Katrina Jackson, the bill confirms that students of any faith background can receive permission from school officials to use classrooms, assembly halls, or other available space for prayer or reflection. Additionally, noted the Shreveport Times, "a teacher or school administrator, parent or someone from the community may be invited to participate or supervise."
Another of the bill's sponsors, Democratic Senator Sharon Broome, conceded that students can already do what the bill specifies, but she said that many are not aware of their rights, or have been intimidated into silence by secular groups attempting stop religious expression. Broome told the Times that she believes more prayer in schools is needed "with all the challenges young people face today." Republican Senator Mike Walsworth, another of the bill's supporters, said that when students become aware of the law, "I think more will gather together at a more peaceful time, holding hands."
While the bill does not change the present climate for religious expression in Louisiana's public schools, the atheist group Americans United for Separation of Church and State (AU) nonetheless took the opportunity to criticize the state legislature for publicly affirming the right of students to pray. "Let's get something straight," simpered the AU atheists in a statement. "Truly voluntary student prayer has always been legal in public schools. Neither the Constitution, nor the Supreme Court has ever said otherwise. But this divisive bill goes far beyond that fact and pushes school districts into problematic territory."
The secular group complained that with the passage of H.B. 724, "the Louisiana legislature has invited sectarian tensions into a place where all children should feel welcome regardless of their feelings about faith. It is shameful that not one single Louisiana legislator had the courage to stand up and say this bill is wrong."

Your tax-deductible gift to the Naval Institute Press underwrites worthy books that might not otherwise be published.
The best way for today's sailors to learn about a battle is from those who fought it. The Battle of Midway, commemorated annually in the U.S. Navy, warrants close attention. This Naval Institute guide includes some of the most vibrant and informed accounts by individuals who fought on both sides of the June 1942 battle. The anthology pulls together memoirs, articles, excerpts from other Naval Institute books, and relevant government documents to help readers understand what happened and explain why the battle was so significant to the naval service. The core of the book focuses on events leading up to the battle and the battle itself, with a separate section examining how others have interpreted the battle's often desperate engagements.
When the U.S. Navy stopped the Japanese steamroller off Midway Island, it not only turned the progress of the war but set the Navy's foundation for future counter offensives. The Navy's comeback spread to the Solomon Islands and on to the other key strategic areas in the Pacific. While many know that Midway was a crucial American victory, they often do not know the details of the battle. This book tells how, for example, the American PT boats contributed to the victory, how the carrier planes formed up for their attacks, and what role radar played in the battle. In addition to excerpts from books and articles, the guide includes selections from several important Naval Institute oral histories. From the enlisted man's perspective all the way to the admiral's, for both Americans and Japanese, readers see the U.S. Navy's greatest victory as the participants saw it.
Thomas C. Hone is a former senior executive in the Office of the Secretary of Defense and a former member of the faculty of the Naval War College with a PhD from the University of Wisconsin. He is the author or coauthor of three books on naval administration and innovation, the coauthor of a book on the Navy between the world wars, and an award-winning author of articles and essays on naval and military affairs. He resides in Arlington, VA.
SNEAK PEEK: The Battle of Midway: The Naval Institute's Guide to the U.S. Navy's Greatest Victory by Naval Institute Press
~ Praise for The Battle of Midway~
"Overall, The Battle of Midway is an excellent guide to a defining battle of modern history. The reader will not come away with an in-depth understanding of the battle but will appreciate its significance and, more importantly, its complexity. The diversity of the anthology means that this large collection of short articles provides an excellent starting point for new researchers and a handy reference for those with existing knowledge. But, more importantly, its focus on the importance of the human dimension at all levels in complex warfare should see this book enter the professional reading list of every military member, irrespective of his or her rank or role."
– Australian Defence Force Journal
"Thomas Hone must be congratulated for his carefully selected and widely varied anthology spanning six decades from the 1950s onwards. For those seeking to reassess the significance of this battle, and to be reminded of the extent to which its outcome was determined not only through bravery, skill and courage on both sides but also by a hefty slice of luck on the part of the Americans, this book is certainly recommended."
– Warship 2014
"A useful anthology on the June 1942 mêlée at Midway and its far-reaching significance. The work is an excellent reference collection for students, scholars, sailors, and general readers alike. The Battle of Midway is a useful compendium of relevant and authoritative sources illuminating the particulars of one of the most important contests of World War II. In The Battle of Midway, Hone presents a compelling case for the significance of the conflict. The result is an indispensable source for anyone interested in the battle, the Pacific War, or American naval history."
– The Journal of America's Military Past
"One of the best ways to learn about a sea fight is from those who took part and here Hone has painted a definitive portrait."
– Warships International
"Hone's choices and the structure of the book make it a jewel. He was limited in some sense to works published by NIP, but so much of that scholarship, both in book form and in the Naval Institute's magazines, is recent that the anthology reads like new scholarship…. this is an excellent collection and those interested in naval history as well as professional officers of all stripes would be well-advised to have it in their collection. Bravo Zulu to Tom Hone, the authors, and the folks at the United States Naval Institute for bringing us this valuable collection."
– navyhistory.org, Naval Historical Foundation
"Will find an enduring audience."
– Naval History
"Hone manages to compress the varied perspectives of the battle into a single volume, producing a very readable anthology of history and analysis."
– Seapower
"This Naval Institute guide includes some of the most vibrant and informed accounts by individuals who fought on both sides of the June 1942 battle."
— Spartanburg (SC) Herald-Journal
"A refreshing and original look at a key American naval victory using judiciously-chosen reprints."
— Galveston Daily News
"Superb anthology, high recommended especially for public and college library collections."
— The Midwest Book Review
"An essential collection of Midway essays, expertly edited by Hone. This volume contains literally decades worth of research around this pivotal battle, providing the reader with a wide variety of perspectives and commentary on America's most important naval victory."
—Jonathan Parshall, coauthor of Shattered Sword: The Untold Story of the Battle of Midway
"Midway stands as one of the most dramatic and important battles in all of naval history. From the rich resources of the U. S. Naval Institute, renowned historian Thomas C. Hone has compiled a most useful and engaging introduction to the battle that did so much to turn the tide of the Pacific War and that the U.S. Navy now annually commemorates."
—John B. Lundstrom, author of Black Shoe Carrier Admiral: Frank Jack Fletcher at Coral Sea, Midway, and Guadalcanal
"A masterful, all-embracing work detailing both the American and Japanese sides of the pivotal Battle of Midway in World War II. Distinguished historian Thomas C. Hone has grouped power-packed chapters by acknowledged experts on all facets of the Battle of Midway. Thus he provides an absolutely essential and exceptionally comprehensive addition to the libraries of military historians and anyone interested in a complete and superbly analyzed understanding of one of the most important naval battles ever. An eminently readable book to be carefully digested and revisited often."
—Douglas V. Smith, professor of strategy and policy, U.S. Naval War College, Historian General of the Naval Order of the United States, author of Carrier Battles: Command Decision in Harm's Way, and editor of One Hundred Years of U.S. Navy Air Power

Defender T3 Overhaul I call it "The Offender"!!!
Posted 17 March 2012 - 06:03 PM
It's been a while since I posted any legit writeup, but you know me, I don't like to post pointless junk, I like to post badass new modifications!
So I found this little beast at a Goodwill for $2. It was missing the arrow part of the gun, which is the best part, so I was kind of bummed. But I've been wanting one of these for a long time for one reason that a lot of people seem to have overlooked on this gun. Its very large and cylindrical shaped where the plunger tube is. Do you know what that means? It means it can hold a MUCH larger plungertube than the stock one, all you have to do is make it fit.
So lets start with the gun...
Open it up, and its stupid simple inside. Much like the Nite Finder internals, though the plunger tube is a little bit smaller. The stock seal is better and the spring is stronger than a NF, so the stock ranges are better. And even with basic mods, it gets 70' ranges. But we're not going to accept 70' ranges, not in this write-up!
We're gona put a darn tootin' Crossbow plungertube in this sucker!!! You heard me right! I got a spare plunger tube from a crossbow when I rebuilt the internals, and its a perfect fit inside the gun, all I have to do is grind out all the interior walls. If you don't have a xbow plungertube, as a doubt the vast majority of you will, you can use 1.25" PETG tubing, or one of those sink drain couplers that are commonly used as replacement plungertubes for xbow's. Either way, just make sure its 1.25" in diameter and about 7 inches long.
Now look at the difference in plunger tube sizes! I measured the interior volume and the crossbow is 2.5X the size of the Defender plungertube!
The first thing you need to do is grind down all the interior walls with your Dremel tool. (If you don't have a Dremel tool, you need to get one, or find a new hobby. Haha!) However, leave the very last one towards the end of the barrel. The plunger needs something to rest against.
You're also going to need to grind down the ribs on the crossbow plunger. You're going to need to be a total boss with a Dremel tool for this, or you'll grind right through the tube. The plastic is thin, so be careful.
Now it should fit in your gun like so! You're going to want to keep the tube towards the front of your gun.
Now make your plunger rod. You should be able to figure this out for yourself because it will depend on what spring/s you use and what rod material you use. You can use the stock plunger rod, but I don't suspect you'll get results half as good as mine with the stock rod. Mine is made of 3/8" nylon. It has a 1.25" neoprene washer as a plunger head, which creates a 100% air seal. And I got TWO Ace #49 springs for power. Yeah... I got two of them... They reach full compression too. They completely bottom out by the time it catches for maximum power! It gives me a draw of nearly 6 inches which is almost the entire plunger tube!!!
Now glue your couple of choice on the end of the plunger tube. I put a piece of CPVC in the end of the coupler to create a bit of a gap between the coupler and the end of the plungertube. I use this gap to hook the the plungertube onto that last wall at the end of the gun that we didn't grind down. That way the plunger tube wont slide back when you prime the gun.
Now put it all back in and you're done! I would also replace the catch spring if I were you.
And it should like like this...
IF you're totally lame... You're going to want to make it look like this!!!
That's right, candy apple red, and super high gloss clear coat! This thing was a royal pain in my ass to tape off. Getting tape into the vent looking parts was not easy, it took me 2 hours. But it was SO worth it... It turned out completely ridiculous! I'm going to have to do a whole writeup just for the painting process alone!
The barrel is about 9" of CPVC. It could use a whole foot or more, but that's just unwieldy.
Now last but not least, I know you're all wondering about ranges. I can tell you right now, it outranges my Crossbow, overhauled AT3K, and my SM1500 that you see behind it. I was completely floored the first time I fired it. I used weighted streamline darts firing level shot, and it would repeatedly fire over 150 feet with stupid accuracy! Crossbow ranges in the size of a pistol. Throw a hopper on this bad bow and you're basically unstoppable...
A few sidenotes, this thing is pretty touch to cock. I have no issues, but some of you younger kids might. It also has a bit of a recoil. It tends to want to jump out of your hand when you fire it, so that takes a bit of getting use to. But it sounds amazing. It has that glorious *thump* sound you get from a high powered spring gun. This is probably my new favorite gun. I call it "The Offender"

Haha, thanks. The paint is not one kind of paint. It's a trick I've learned over the past few years painting motorcycles and guitars and stuff. Basically, you take Rustoleum metallic silver and use it as a base coat. Then you go over it with a candy coat. Candy coats are transparent color paints and will turn whatever your base coat is into that color. The thicker you put it on, the deeper and darker it will get. Usually I would use an automotive candy color and an airbrush, but for this I decided to experiment with rattle can candy. This happened to be Duplicolor chrome metals paint. I understand its basically the same thing as Krylon X-Metals though, which is cheaper. I then put a super thick coat of clear coat on it to give it shine and to really set the metal flake deep in there. I used Deft clear coat. It's meant for furniture, but its what I use on guitars, and now I use it on everything.
I painted this gun with leftover paint from restoring a 1973 Roadmaster tricycle for my cousin, here's a picture of that if you wanted to see the process applied to something else:

Two questions, does the plunger tube rotate when you're taking out the barrel, and how far back, from the front of the plunger rod head, is catch notch that reaches full compression?

No, the plunger tube does not rotate. I wrapped the coupler in e-tape so that when they shell is screwed together, it clamps down on the couple holding it in place. And the catch notch is a little less than 2 inches I believe. It would be less if I used a looser wound spring.
Daniel Beaver, on 17 March 2012 - 09:17 PM, said:

Initially I thought the same thing, so I propped the gun against a tree and used two hands so it wouldn't move. Trust me, it just gets ridiculous ranges level shot. I believe there was a slight head breeze too. But I've found that my weighted streamline darts out-range most stefans by about 50-60 feet. I don't know why, I just haven't used any stefans that went as far.

Liz Schreiber, Psychology
Liz SchreiberPsychology Student
"I think we bring who we are to what we do in life," says Liz Schreiber, "whether it's business or education or medicine. I wanted an education that would challenge my intellect while it also broadened my personal growth, pushing me to look at things in a different perspective."
Liz has worked as a counselor in several different organizations, and thought she had the training she needed to make a difference that the world needed. But she discovered that conventional psychological training is only really effective in conventional situations – and those weren't the kind she wanted to address.
"I was working with middle-school children who had one or both of their parents in prison, and these kids didn't even know how affected they were, at this crucial age, by the choices their parents and society had made for them," she says. "I think that was the beginning of my trying to see the whole picture – not just seeing a child as being diagnosed with ADHD or with a learning disability, but to see beyond that diagnosis and what might be contributing to it."
Too often, she says, "we were helping impoverished individuals, but not looking at what caused that poverty, or the cycle of it. So I decided that I needed not just to understand individuals, but their environments, and how people could move on from one set of environments into a set of healthier ones."
That's why she came to Saybrook to get an MA Psychology degree with a specialization in Marriage and Family Therapy.
"I've found the professors to be open and I was definitely mentored," she says. "After I graduated I passed the licensing exam on my first try, and that's really a credit to some of my faculty, who pushed me. But I got so much more out of it. I did my undergrad in 3 years, and I never wanted to go back to school because I never felt challenged, and I didn't want to pay for another degree that I wouldn't enjoy. But Saybrook challenged me, and really reignited my love of learning. Which was wonderful."
After graduating Liz found a position doing mental health evaluation for the homeless population in her city, and then took a job at an outpatient clinic. She says that she was a different kind of therapist thanks to her Saybrook education.
"Saybrook prepared me to really see the dignity in people and their worth," she says. "That we're all human beings, and that the lives people live outside the diagnoses that we give them are vitally important. And when I speak with other mental health professionals, I'm very researched based, I have a lot of backing for what I say, which I'm very grateful for."
Liz has since gone on to work for the New York State Office of Mental Health, helping to design integrated clinics that combine conventional medicine with mental health services. She's considering expanding her practice into industrial psychology as well.
"The skills Saybrook gave me are ones I can take with me anywhere, they transfer anywhere," she says. "It's tremendous."

MORRIS, Ill. (Nov. 1, 2012) –The purchase of a portable 8-foot high dam for Exelon's Dresden Generating Station is one of a series of equipment and facility upgrades under way that are designed to protect the facility from extreme floods.
MORRIS, Ill. (Nov. 1, 2012) –The purchase of a portable 8-foot high dam for Exelon's Dresden Generating Station is one of a series of equipment and facility upgrades under way that are designed to protect the facility from extreme floods.
Three portable high-volume diesel water pumps, portable backup generators and other support equipment are on site. A 4,000-foot-long portable dam and other equipment are being delivered over the next few weeks to augment the nuclear facility's flood protection strategy. Exelon is reviewing other modifications to the plant that could be implemented as well.
"Maintaining safety at Dresden, even under the most severe circumstances, is our number one priority," said Site Vice President Dave Czufin, the station's senior executive. "Over the past year and a half, we have invested thousands of hours to inspect and upgrade plant systems against natural events, especially flooding. We have dedicated equipment, procedures and our operators are trained to safely shut down the station if we had an extreme flood, and we are adding new redundancies that give us even greater protection against such a natural disaster."
The purchase of additional equipment was the result of industry lessons learned from the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan. The equipment is being staged or installed to protect the plant in extreme floods beyond those previously anticipated.
Dresden sits at the confluence of the Des Plaines, Illinois and Kankakee rivers. A comprehensive re-examination of Dresden's flood protection strategy began immediately following the 2011 Japan events, where a tsunami flooded the seaside Fukushima-Daiichi nuclear facility. Since then, all U.S. nuclear facilities have undergone extensive reviews of backup equipment, structures, procedures and emergency training needed to manage large-scale natural disasters.
The rivers near Dresden run at an elevation of 505 feet above sea level. The highest flood level ever recorded at the site was approximately 509 feet. A 2003 Army Corps of Engineers study determined that a 500-year flood would crest at 511 feet at the site. Dresden's site grade elevation is 517 feet — 6 feet above the predicted 500-year flood level. The portable dam adds another 8 feet of flood protection margin and would keep water out of the station during an extreme flood higher than the site grade elevation.
If grid power needed to run emergency equipment were lost as a result of flooding in the area, Dresden has three locomotive-sized diesel generators, any one of which can supply sufficient power to operate safety equipment for an indefinite period. Those are backed up by two additional diesel generators. Backing up the diesel generators are portable diesel-driven backup pumps and other equipment to fully protect the station.
Dresden Station will host a public community information event at the station on Saturday, Dec. 15, with station experts, equipment, and demonstrations regarding the plant's flood protection strategy. More information about the event will be forthcoming.
Dresden Generating Station is approximately 60 miles southwest of Chicago. The station's two operating units can produce more than 1,700 megawatts net of electricity, enough to power nearly 2 million average homes. Dresden Unit 1, which began commercial operation in 1960 and was retired in 1978, has been designated a Nuclear Historic Landmark by the American Nuclear Society.
Exelon Corporation (NYSE:EXC) is the nation's leading competitive energy provider, with approximately $33 billion in annual revenues. Headquartered in Chicago, Exelon has operations and business activities in 47 states, the District of Columbia and Canada. Exelon is the largest competitive U.S. power generator, with approximately 35,000 megawatts of owned capacity comprising one of the nation's cleanest and lowest-cost power generation fleets. The company's Constellation business unit provides energy products and services to approximately 100,000 business and public sector customers and approximately 1 million residential customers. Exelon's utilities deliver electricity and natural gas to more than 6.6 million customers in central Maryland (BGE), northern Illinois (ComEd) and southeastern Pennsylvania (PECO).

Dear Folks -
I am still in France and don't know when we will sail but we can't be here much longer but we thought the same thing when we came here and we have been here for almost a month now but troops are leaving every day and it will soon will be our turn. I guess as I said this is the port of embarkation. I sent you some pictures of some of the places I have been and I suppose some of them have reached home. But I guess the mail is pretty reliable as I have gotten all of your letters but sometimes they come in bunches. I haven't got a letter now for some time now so I guess I will get a couple

En español | Here are the most frequently asked questions about Social Security that AARP has received from you.
See also: 10 things you should know about Social Security.
1. I am about to turn 62 and plan to file for Social Security. How do I get started?
You should apply three months before you want to start collecting. Sign up online or call 1-800-772-1213. Here are some documents you may have to produce: your Social Security card or a record of the number; your birth certificate; proof of U.S. citizenship or lawful alien status; military discharge papers if you served before 1968; and last year's W-2 tax form or tax return if you're self-employed.
2. How is my Social Security benefit calculated?
Benefits are based on the amount of money you earned during your lifetime – with an emphasis on the 35 years in which you earned the most. Plus, lower-paid workers get a bigger percentage of their preretirement income than higher-paid workers. In 2010, the average monthly benefit for retirees is $1,172.
3. If I remarry, can I still collect Social Security benefits based on my deceased first husband's record?
You can — subject to several rules. In general, you cannot receive survivor benefits if you remarry before age 60 unless that marriage ends, too, whether by annulment, divorce or death of your new husband. If you remarry after age 60 (50 if disabled), you can still collect benefits on your former spouse's record. After you reach 62, you may get retirement benefits on the record of your new spouse if they are higher.
4. Why won't retirees get a cost-of-living adjustment for 2011? Many of us count on this for food, medicine and other bills.
COLAs are based on the consumer price index, which tracks inflation. Because inflation has been flat, according to the CPI, there will be no benefit increase — for the second year in a row. AARP is calling on Congress to provide beneficiaries with financial relief.
5. I am 56 and receive Social Security disability benefits. At what point will I switch to regular Social Security? Will the monthly amount change?
When you reach full retirement age, your disability benefits will automatically convert to retirement benefits. The amount will remain the same.

Click this link for the latest CW renewal / cancellation information:
Our Renew / Cancel Index predicts the network's decision on renewal or cancellation for scripted broadcast primetime shows by the end of the 2012-13 season in May, 2013. (includes results from September 17-October 21, 2012):
|Renew/ Cancel Index
|Nikita (F)
|Gossip Girl
|final season
|Emily Owens, M.D.
|Hart Of Dixie
|Beauty And The Beast
|Vampire Diaries
Nikita premiered with a "look away" bad 0.3 adults 18-49 rating for its third season. However, when the CW renewed the already poorly rated Nikita for a third season last spring, co-owner Warner Brothers (that produces Nikita) put a stake in the ground that should get it a fourth season to reach 88 episodes for stripped syndication. The other co-owner of the CW, CBS, has done this before with their low rated dramas (most recently, The Good Wife), and I predict will do it again (Blue Bloods, Hawaii Five-0).
I'm not going to guarantee Nikita will air during the broadcast season, perhaps the CW will do with it as they have America's Next Top Model and push it off to a mostly or all summer schedule, but those 88 episodes are going to get made, last spring's renewal all but guarantees it.
Emily Owens, MD premiere ratings were woeful too, and it'll probably be in the headline next week.
Because the folks at the CW seem to like short final seasons for their veteran shows, I assume 90210 will be renewed for a 13 episode final season next year, even with its terrible ratings. They could certainly change their tune and cancel it though if schedule time next season gets tight.
Better to Follow The Bear, Than Be Chased By Him. This season you can follow the Cancellation Bear on Twitter via @TheCancelBear. The Cancellation Bear will retweet all the Renew/Cancel Index post titles and links as well as engage in a little more back and forth banter than we do on our standard @TVbytheNumbers Twitter feed.
- - certain to be cancelled by May, 2013
- :cry:- more likely to be cancelled than renewed by May, 2013
- - toss up between renewal or cancellation by May, 2013
- - more likely to be renewed than cancelled by May, 2013
- - certain to be renewed by May, 2012
The Renew/Cancel Index is the ratio of a scripted show's new episode adults 18-49 ratings relative to the new episode ratings of the other scripted shows on its own network. It's calculated by dividing a show's new episode Live+Same Day adults 18-49 average rating by the Live+Same Day new episode average of all the new scripted show episodes on the show's own network. The network's average ratings in the calculation are not time weighted (ex. hour long shows are not weighted twice what 30 minute shows are).
(F) -Fridays: Shows airing on Fridays were renewed with significantly lower than average Indexes.

OGDENSBURG Oswegatchie Town Supervisor Alfred J. Bud Nichols will seek a fourth four-year term.
Mr. Nichols, 71, is a retired farmer and a Republican. He served on the Town Council for six years before succeeding William E. Dashnaw as supervisor.
Mr. Nichols is keen for the town to reap the growth-related benefits of economic development. But he said he knows that cannot happen until the town can provide full-scale water and sewer service in lieu of wells.
I still keep hoping that were going to have a water district, he said. But its all in the money. All in the money as in an estimated $14 million price tag that undoubtedly will rise as time goes on without a project in the offing. Mr. Nichols is hopeful the right combination of grant funding will make itself available.
I dont want to bankrupt the town, he said.
As proposed, the water district would encompass the towns routes 812, 68 and 37 corridors. Mr. Nichols doesnt mind reciting a what-could-have-been list of commercial prospects that looked at Oswegatchie but instead went to Ogdensburg or decided not to build because of no available water and sewer service.
We could have had Lowes, Mr. Nichols said. We could have had Walmart. We could have had Ponderosa.
Mr. Nichols also wants to enhance the already strong tourism of Black Lake. As popular as it always had been for camping, boating and fishing, the body of water has long had a severe shoreline weed-clogging problem. It especially has wreaked havoc in recent years on pleasure boats whose outboard motor propellers are caught and damaged in the tangle of the weeds.
It comes to the point where they (tourists) dont want to put boats in there anymore, Mr. Nichols said.
The town will soon apply for grants to deal with Black Lakes weed problem.
No other candidates for town supervisor have surfaced.

We're starting the week off with a big punch of color at Pure Mobile with the arrival of some new iPhone 5 accessories. The iSkin Aura carrying case has just hit our shop in a lineup of vivid hues, perfect for the summer season ahead. And we're loving the balance of minimalism and vibrance it's bringing to our favorite Apple device.
With this latest carrying case, it looks like iSkin really worked to design an accessory that could capture the modern elegance of the iPhone 5. Elements of the new iPhone's aesthetic are echoed in the design of the Aura, with a texture and form that complements that of the iPhone 5.
Made of tough Polycarbonate, the thin but strong iSkin Aura sports a luxurious finish of aircraft-grade aluminum, not unlike the backing material on the iPhone 5 itself.
Easy to snap on and off, this top-notch carrying case attaches to the sides of the phone, extending the color on the back to the length of both sides, The top and bottom of the iPhone, however, are left unobstructed, so you get total access to ports and controls.
Because the iSkin Aura is so slim (especially considering how tough it is) it's super portable and pretty lightweight. But its sleek, compact design also means you can easily use your iPhone docking station and other iPhone 5 accessories without actually having to remove the case.
But obviously, one of the things we love most about this lineup of new iPhone 5 accessories is the huge color selection. Available in a fresh spring green, teal blue, candy pink, vibrant orange and of course classic black, there's one to suit almost every taste. So if you're looking for a cool iPhone 5 case this summer, the iSkin Aura will keep your phone protected and beautiful for the season ahead.

Now things can be called even between the two longtime rivals. At least on the hardwood.
In the matchup between the two rival schools, Emery was able to gain a measure of revenge against Carbon High as the Spartans got past the Dinos 59-58 in overtime on Saturday night.
Emery High (5-6) was able to get the win after losing the previous game between the two, a 72-54 Carbon High victory back on Dec. 16.
The two teams played a game reversed from their earlier meeting as it was Emery High who jumped out to a halftime lead of 30-21.
Carbon High (7-3) erased that lead during the third quarter as they outscored Emery High 18-5 in the quarter to take a four point lead into the fourth quarter.
In the fourth quarter, Emery and Carbon battled it out as both teams tried to grab the victory. Thirty-two minutes was not enough as the two teams were tied at 52-52 at the end of regulation.
In overtime Emery was able to sneak past Carbon thanks in part to Dallon Cologie who finished with 30 points for the Spartans.
Jordan Blanc led the Dinos with 18 points and eight rebounds. Derek Young added 12 points and five rebounds.
Both teams shot poorly from the foul line but Carbon (21-of-45, 46.7 percent) may be left to lament what could have been a win.
The Carbon High boys and girls teams begin Region 12 play tonight as they travel to Payson for games starting at 5:15 and 7 p.m.

The need for an alternative school in Carbon County continues to be discussed by education officials and local community.
In the past, members of the general public have considered the Lighthouse program to be an alternative school. But the Lighthouse is considered to be a program to get the students back into the regular school cirriculum.
The issue of an alternative school for the district was not on the agenda at the Carbon Board of Education meeting on Jan. 11. But the matter surfaced as an addendum to a discussion about the shortage of spots for youth at the Lighthouse and what to do with junior high school students who are not making the grade in regular classrooms.
"When the Lighthouse program was set up, we were able to put certain students there because there was room," pointed out Mont Harmon Principal Todd Lauritsen. "However, in the last few years, the program has been inundated with high school students who lack credits. When we have ninth grade students to place there, it is full. I am not sure what we can do. We need some type of alternative for credit deficient students, problem kids who are making it and others. But right now, we have no where to turn."
Superintendent David Armstrong told the board that the Lighthouse does not have the teaching capacity for ninth grade students.
"I guess my question is - where do we want to solve this problem?" asked Lauritsen. "Where do we want to catch them at? Do we want to catch them in junior high or when they are seniors in high school? We just need a way to fill the needs we have."
The board of education members raised several questions about the situation, including how many students Lauritsen felt he had who would benefit from such a program.
"There are 38 that are having some real problems," he responded. "But right now I think we have 21 who could benefit from such a program. Many of the students that we are having problems with I believe would straiten out if they thought they were going to go to a program like that rather than stay at our school. But with not alternative, they just continue on."
Lauritsen pointed out that while Helper Junior High is smaller than Mont Harmon they too have need for such a program.
"That's true," said Judy Mainord, director of the LIghthouse. "Without a ninth grade cirriculem we can't serve either Todd's or Tom's (Montoya, principal of Helper Junior High) needs in that area. We can't spare a teacher to handle the ninth grade cirriculem. Right now we have so many high schoolers who never can return to the regular high school program that we must send them on to adult education. The way it is working now we are backloading the problems instead of frontloading them."
But the program will work for some students if they were sent to it said Greg Maughan, the assistant principal at Mont Harmon.
"We had a student we were able to send over to an open slot a couple of years ago, It really changed him. He's a different kid."
Board member Jim Leonard said that it appeared to him that the problem was just a matter of having a teacher to take over the ninth grade kids sent to the Lighthouse.
"So if this is a problem, which school wants to give up a teacher to staff that program," he said. "I know you don't have an overabundance of teachers, so that is the hard part."
That is when the discussion about an alternative school came into the conversation. Lauritsen said that some kids don't do well in a regular setting but in an alternative system they get through the process.
"Things are so different for kids today than they were when we went to school,"said Mainord. "I have thought maybe we should look at a charter school that works just on vocational items. We'd want it to be one that is directed by the district. But people shouldn't get the wrong idea about alternative schools. They aren't just for failing kids but for those that just don't fit into the regular educational system."
Board president Grady McEvoy worried that such a school could just become a dumping ground for kids no one wants to work with.
But the superintendent also reminded everyone tha the state legislature had put an end to charter schools being started and run by regular school districts with some recent legislation.
The discussion ended there, with no resolution to the problem, but some talk about exploring the possibilities of what could be done with under performing and non-performing students at the junior high schools.
The board also address the calendar for this year to make sure they didn't run into the problems that they had over the holiday season with irate parents and students concerned about the late date school was to be dismissed for the holidays before Christmas.
"We have brought the calendar back so that we are sure that there is ample time for the break before and after the Christmas break for this next year," said McEvoy. "I just want to be sure we avoid being caught in this position again."
Originally school this past holiday season was supposed to go through the Friday before Christmas. But with Christmas on the following Sunday, many felt that it cut out the ability of many families to travel and be to their destinations before Christmas Eve.
"I don't think it will be a problem this year because Christmas and New Years Day are on Monday instead of Sunday," said Armstrong.
The board took no further action on the calendar, leaving it as it was originally adopted.

Hello all
After I have installed Debian 3.0_r1 with kernal-2.4.18-bf2.4 and lilo 22.2, I got raidtools2 and partitioning a new HDD with type FD.
Then I edited /etc/raidtab as
# /boot
raiddev /dev/md0
raid-level 1
nr-raid-disks 2
nr-spare-disks 0
chunk-size 32

raid-level 1

failed-disk 1
device /dev/sda3
raid-disk 0
Made the Raid:
mkraid /dev/md0
mkraid /dev/md1
cat /proc/mdstat gave the correct answer
mke2fs -j -b 4096 -R stride=8 /dev/md0
mke2fs -j -b 4096 -R stride=8 /dev/md1
Thus cp the files from sda1, sdb3 to sdb1, sdb3.
Modified /etc/fstab:

"superblock is corrupt ... give root pwd or (Ctrl-D) to continue:"
Did I miss anything or do anything wrong?

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Local fans react to Tim Tebow's release from the New York Jets and the big question has been whether they will see Tebow play for an NFL team again and if so, which one?
"Jaguars should get him, he would be a good addition to the team, get more fans, sell more tickets, think it would be pretty good," said Keetan Smith, a local fan.
Since the news broke that former New York Jets Quarterback Tim Tebow is a free agent, some of his fans in Jacksonville hoped it would mean he could end up playing for the Jags.
"Since draft day I wanted him him here, but it didn't work out," said Smith.
Tebow fans call him a hometown hero and say coming back home could mean a boost for the Jaguars team.
"I can understand the Jaguars for making the announcement that they are not interested, but I do agree it would be a big boost for this city being that he is from here and it would fill the stands," said Matt Meadows, a football fan. "I mean, there would be a lot of people, just to come and see Tim Tebow take the field, but you can't build a football team around that."
Most of Tebow's local fans have followed him since he was number 15 for the Gators and then once he made his break into the NFL with the Denver Broncos, but they say they are not sure what his next move is.
"I don't think that he has the skills necessary for the NFL," said Taylor James, a football fan.
Others say they think Tebow still belongs on the field, but are just not quite sure where.
"I think I saw it coming. He didn't fit well with the Jets organization I think he'll fit with a team somewhere, it may not be the NFL, I think he may end up going to Canada. I think he's a great athlete and a great person, personally I think he needs to change his view that he only wants to be a quarterback," said Meadows.

After listening to Carly Rae Jepsen's 2012 hit "Call Me Maybe," it was clear that the Canadian singer songwriter was pretty eager to be in a relationship. Her new music video for "Tonight I'm Getting Over You," however suggests that maybe there was a reason why "baby" didn't call. In fact, there may be several reasons why the guy from the new vid decided to call it quits, too. Here are a few.
1. She stole his stuff and refused to give it back.
You may be thinking, "aww, how cute, she wants his hat." But for all we know, Carly Rae has been stealing and stashing dozens of her sweetie's duds over a period of weeks, much like a ferret would. In the shot above the poor guy has resorted to wearing the ancient leather jacket from his punk phase for lack of anything else to wear.
2. She tried to wrestle him at inappropriate times
Don't get me wrong, I love a good, romantic wrestle just as much as the next person, but she could have at least waited until he was finished reading his book or at least warned him that the headlock was on its way. Even after he called a truce, Carly Rae decided to wait unil he passed out to let up.
3. She sang in his face while he was trying to sleep.
After hours of being wrestled into submission, Carly's boyfriend was pretty pooped. But did Carly care? Of course not. She liked to spend her mornings training her voice with an aggressive tactic called face-singing, which coincidentally, involved singing loudly in his face. When he asked her to stop, she moved her vocal regimen to the wee hours of the morning.
4. She made him take her on dates to weird places like abandoned mannequin factories.
Date at a bowling alley? Classic. Date volunteering at an animal shelter? Cute. Date spent loitering in an abandoned mannequin factory? Weird, Carly Rae. Just weird. Also, when you bring a guy to mannequin factory, don't assume that that flash in his eye is excitement; he's just worried that you brought him here to kill him.
5. She threw food at him and thought it was funny.
Okay, this is just rude. After seeing her man take a bite out of his doughnut, she used his unhealthy food choice as fodder for a slew of biting and misguided insults. To add insult to emotional injury, Carly Rae decided to throw bits of her own food at him, demanding that he eat them and perform tricks. Poor guy.
6. She had no idea how to sit in a car correctly and never wore her seat belt.
As kids, many of us used to lie on the school bus seat and play "roller coaster" but Carly Rae never outgrew it. When that got boring, she started experimenting with other sitting position in the car and getting mad at her boyfriend for not being able to drive whilst sitting backwards. Note the sneer of disdain.
7. She liked to play with the rear-view mirror while he was driving and told him to "live more dangerously."
Another jerk move. As soon as she noticed his neo-punk wardrobe, Carly assumed that he was a total bad boy and was upset to find that he was really just a sweetheart who cared about her safety. One of her favorite games was to fidget with his rear-view mirror and mimic his concerned protestations.
8. She wouldn't eat anything he cooked for her.
It's one thing to be a picky eater and another thing to demand that a guy cook for you and then scramble the food into an unrecognizable mash on your plate because you don't like what he made. Why does this guy even try?
9. She sat way too close to the TV and thought the people on the screen were real.
Yes Carly Rae, this is called a TV. It has pictures of people, PICTURES. He explained this to her several times but she still insisted on fondling the screen and sitting freakishly close. He missed all of his favorite shows; it was devastating.
10. She was awful at hide-and-go-seek.
Everyone knows that hide-and-go-seek abilities are the best indicators of compatibility. This guy was a pro, but Carly Rae? Not so much. Maybe it was because he's a tender 23 and she's almost 30, but the girl seemed to have lost touch with her inner child. That and she didn't understand the difference between translucent and opaque materials. Sigh.
11. She was physically abusive.
Whoa! Everything else on this list is negligible compared to this. Don't be fooled by her spare, 5'2 frame. This girl packs a mean punch. He was lucky to get out alive. Domestic violence is never ok. Ever.
12. She was afraid of small, enclosed spaces and regularly tried to escape from moving vehicles.
This girl is obviously a danger to herself and everyone around her. If you're claustrophobic, it's common courtesy to let your honey know. Oh, and it's also common courtesy to, I don't know, NOT STICK HALF OF YOUR BODY OUT OF A MOVING CAR! Jeez, Carly. Pull it together.

|Written by Mike Kelly
|Wednesday, 12 January 2011 15:58
Watauga High Athletic Director Tom Wright has announced that the WHS-Fred T. Foard basketball games that were snowed out Friday, January 11 will now be made up on Wednesday, January 26 at Lentz-Eggers Gym.
It all begins with the JV girls at 4 pm that night . The Pioneers have had two games postponed in the last four days because of bad weather. The Pioneers travel to Hickory Friday night. Our coverage for that game begins at 6 pm on Oldies 100.7 FM.
Now, Mother Nature is making things very tough on the region this week. Wintry weather forced the cancellation of two Northwestern 3A/4A games last night (Fred T. Foard @ South Caldwell and Hickory @ St. Stephens). On top of that, the Hickory school district and Catwaba County schools were closed again today, and will be out again on Thursday. The only excpetion is Newton-Conover, which will be on a two-hour delay.

Available titles in this series:
Alan's War
The Memories Of G.I. Allan Cope
When I was eighteen, Uncle Sam told me he'd like me to put on a uniform and go off to fight a guy by the name of Adolf. So I did. When Alan Cope joined the army and went off to fight in World War II, he had no idea what he was getting into. This graphic memoir is the story of his life during wartime, a story told with poignant intimacy and matchless artistry. Across a generation, a deep friendship blossomed between Alan Cope and author/artist Emmanuel Guibert. From it, Alan's War was born a graphic novel that is a deeply personal and moving experience, straight from the heart of the Greatest Generation a unique piece of WWII literature and a ground-breaking graphic memoir.

"another way to get fast updates is to delay updates and then do many updates in a row later. Doing many updates in a row is much quicker than doing one at a time if you lock the table. "
The above is not very clear. What exactly is entailed in "delaying updates"? Is it done via specific MySQL switches/commands or in the application?
Would the following be sufficient (pseudocode)?
LOCK TABLES tbl_name
UPDATE table
End Loop

What I think the manual entry means is to use "UPDATE LOW_PRIORITY". Have a look on the update entry on the manual.

|[Delete] [Edit]
Be careful when using slow UPDATE queries, if those queries are getting executed on a heavily used (SELECTed) table. In our production environment, we re-coded slow update statements to work as "atomic" as possible.
For example: a job that mark messages in a chat community as "olddated":
UPDATE messages SET status = 'OLD' WHERE insertdate <= '..somedate...'
This query locks the frequently selected messages table for a couple of seconds (or even minutes). If you're not able to speed up those UPDATE (e.g. using indexes), you can try the following:
SELECT messageID FROM messages WHERE insertdate <= '...date..'
and in a separate loop:
for_each_messageID {
UPDATE messages SET status = 'OLD' where messageID= $messageID
Between those single UPDATE statements, the locked SELECT queries can do their work, before the next UPDATE is executed , and the table-lock is short enough to not cause your application to "halt".

As most people who are looking to increase SELECT - UPDATE - DELETE - and other functions that might use the table searching to find the specific row and update, they came to this page; I did too.
If you haven't already done this, you should INDEX your column. It makes these statements FLY like no there's no tomorrow.
HOW TO with PHPMYADMIN: click on the little lightning icon next to the structure row you want to index. It only works for certain types of structure, i know it might/does not work for TEXT or BLOB.
HOW TO with MYSQL STATEMENT / PHP / COMMAND LINE:
ALTER TABLE `tablename` ADD INDEX ( `columname`;
Ok thanks for having this page here, i hope this helps everyone who finds it. I love mysql ;)

Update queries do not always seem to get optimized in the same way as select queries with exactly the same where clause do. If selecting records is much faster than updating the same records then try putting the indexed columns first in the update where clause. In my case update queries that were taking 100+ seconds to finish on a 250k row table now execute in less than a second.

I noticed something that might be interesting to some of you.
If you have an UPDATE with an ORDER BY, and you can afford to ommit the ORDER BY part, try doing so!
instead of:
UPDATE 'things' SET foo='bar' ORDER BY id LIMIT 0,1
UPDATE 'things' SET foo='bar' LIMIT 0,1
speeded up my query from 7 seconds to something under just a 10th of a second or less
In my case, after reconsidering, it didn't really matter after all to have the first available id in a table updated, just as long as they are all updated in the end.
Hope this might come in handy for someone.

"The county planners want to plan our lives and control our property, but they can't even plan a meeting," an angry property owner commented at the Kootenai County Planning Commission meeting at the Kootenai County Court House in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, Monday evening, June 17. The expressions of anger and exasperation grew as the overflow crowd of nearly 300 tried to pack into a 150-capacity room to comment on the proposed new Unified Land Use Code, a comprehensive rewrite (and vast expansion of) the county's existing land use regulations, which were already the source of much discontent.
The meeting was the first of a planned four-meeting series that was scheduled to run each evening from June 17-20, with each night covering several chapters of the new 500-page ULUC Draft. Sparks began flying (metaphorically) from the start. The Coeur d'Alene Fire Department came to the rescue a little over an hour into the volatile meeting, informing the Commission that the gathering was over capacity and in violation of the fire code. This spared county officials from more blistering comments from area residents. It also gave Kootenai County residents a reprieve, as Wes Hanson, the planning commission chairman, announced that the meeting would be adjourned and continued in a new series of meetings scheduled at a larger venue.
Much of the concern and outrage expressed at the commission meeting by property owners stems from the fact that the new "comprehensive plan," the ULUC, is more than double the page count of the existing code, and, as might be expected from that expansion, contains many more regulations, prohibitions, restrictions, mitigations, impact fees, permit requirements, and much more. Another common complaint, both from property owners and professionals who regularly deal with these matters, such as realtors, appraisers, consultants, and attorneys, is that the ULUC is vague and confusing, with many terms undefined or ill-defined, opening the door for county administrators, inspectors, and regulators to cite and fine property owners for many normal activities and uses now permitted under the current code. Still another point of contention is that many (if not most) property owners in the rural areas most affected by the new plan did not even know about the revision and the extent of the changes and the impact it would have until they were presented with a near fait accompli very recently.
Planning commission chairman Wes Hanson opened the Monday meeting by explaining the rules for taking comments from property owners that had signed up to speak, each for three minutes. Grumbles and frustrated comments from the crowd had already begun. Hanson then turned the meeting over to Bret Keast, president and owner of Kendig Keast Collaborative, the Colorado-based company that wrote the new code. Keast began, using a slide presentation, to explain chapters 1-3 of the new ULUC. He didn't get very far before the grumbles turned into shouts: "You're wasting our time"; "He's taking up all our time"; "We didn't come here for this"; "When does the public get to comment?"

By PATSY STODDARDEmery County Progress Editor
According to Emery County Sheriff LaMar Guymon, around 9 a.m. on Wednesday morning, Oct. 21, there was a double homicide shooting in Castle Dale.
Guymon says that William, 51, and Charmaine Sharp, 54, were allegedly shot by their adult son, Peter Sharp. They were pronounced dead at the scene.
A son, Peter Sharp, age 26, was apprehended that morning and is being held at the Emery County detention center. At the time of the shooting there were reportedly four other children in the home.
Investigation of the crime is being conducted by the Emery County Sheriff's Office detectives.
According to Guymon, at approximately 9:10 a.m. a 911 call came into the Emery County Sheriff's dispatch. The call was lost but Sgt. Bliss Mead was able to GPS the location and get an address. Dispatcher Maureen Copatch immediately sent all available units to the scene. A second 911 call was made by a teenaged daughter in the home. She said her brother had shot her parents.
It is reported that Peter Sharp, shortly after 9 a.m. went into a back bedroom in the home and shot his father William, with a shotgun. He then shot his mother Charmaine in the hallway leading out of the kitchen.
According to reports Charmaine was fixing breakfast at the time and getting ready to start the children's lessons for the day, which was a normal routine in the home. The father, William, was speaking on the phone to their eldest daughter Lisa at the time he was shot.
After the shooting, Peter's siblings, a 15-yea-old brother and teenage sister, reportedly wrestled the gun away from their brother; Peter left the home. He then went down the hill from the home and was walking along Main Street without any shoes. Ambulance Supervisor, Jim Gordon had just heard the call and was approaching the Sharp home when he saw the man on the street without shoes and thought it strange. He notified dispatch of the man walking down the street and proceeded to the Sharp home, where he examined the bodies of the parents.
Guymon said Lt. Bill Downard and Deputy Clayton Bell entered the home to make sure the shooter was not still there. Gordon examined the bodies and determined there was no need to call an ambulance as both parties were deceased at the scene. Lt. Downard put out the information on the suspect including his description and that he had left the scene on foot.
Sgt. Tom Harrison and Deputy Shaun Bell went to the parking lot of Stewarts and ALCO to look for the suspect. The suspect went into the Family Dollar store where he reportedly stole a pair of house slippers which he was wearing as he walked across the parking lot in front of ALCO. Harrison engaged the suspect and reported that the man acted like he was going to bolt and run. The sergeant instructed Peter that they were going to put handcuffs on him which they proceeded to do and there was a small scuffle at that time. The suspect was taken without further incident to the detention center where he is being held without bond.
Guymon and Capt. Kyle Ekker were out of town at the time of the shootings but upon hearing the news, they returned home to supervise the investigation. Downard had been the first on the scene and supervised the investigation there.
The Sharp children had left the house with a family member and waited in a vehicle outside the home. Guymon held a press conference that afternoon and told some of what the children had reported. The Sharp children indicated there hadn't been anything unusual or out of the ordinary that went on at the home the previous evening or the morning of the shooting. They reported there weren't any confrontations or arguments between the parents, themselves or their brother Peter.
Guymon reported that during questioning the suspect was confused and didn't know what was going on. The Sheriff also said he seemed to have no memory of what happened. The grown children of the family still live in the area and have taken the minor children into their homes.
"The young man (Peter) has suffered from mental issues and that's probably the basis for what happened today," said Guymon that afternoon. "The Sharp's have 10 children and four of them are still in the home. The youngest child is 8 and Peter, 26 was the oldest. The children feared for their own lives at the time they wrestled the gun away from their brother and should be considered heroes for doing that. The children are very distraught and emotionally upset. The older siblings are taking care of the younger ones and they do have a good support system."
Guymon said that in the 20 years the Sharps had lived in the home the sheriffs department had only received one call to the residence, and that was a few years ago.
"The call concerned the suspect behaving aggresively. and we talked to him at that time," said Guymon. "There haven't been any calls or problems involving the sheriff's office since that time."
On Friday the Emery County Attorney's Office filed information in the Seventh District Court charging Peter Simon Sharp with two counts of criminal homicide, aggravated murder, domestic violence and one count of aggravated assault, domestic violence in connection with the shooting deaths. The defendant is currently being held without bail in the Emery County jail.
His first appearance is set before Judge George M. Harmond Jr. on Oct. 27, but because of the funeral the time has not been set for the hearing.

Note: Angel Pagan, 10-gm Hit Streak and Mistakes
Angel Pagan had three hits last night to continue his 10-game hitting streak.
Pagan is batting .313 with 30 extra base hits in 67 games.
He's hitting .325 when batting from the leadoff spot, while hitting .360 with runners on base.
… the thing is, again, last night, he made another costly base-running mistake… in the fifth inning, he was tagged out at third base while trying to advance from second on a ball hit to the shortstop, right in front of him… later, he was thrown out at second base when, i assume, he lost track of how many outs there were… from what i can gather, having talked with people connected to the team, he has also missed several signs from coaches this season, be it in the box or on the bases…
Following last night's game, Jerry Manuel was asked about Pagan's mental mistakes, to which he said:
"Well, because of what you see, you have to be somewhat concerned, as far as going forward, if you're talking about Championship Play and performance and things… It's unfortunate, here's a guy with three hits, hitting over .300, and there's a lot of positive things that he does, but, unfortunately, those things are hard to accept, very difficult to swallow."
…the thing is, the guy can hit… when it comes to swinging the bat, he's been fantastic… also, he covers lots of ground in the outfield and has a strong glove…
Manuel was asked about Pagan on WFAN earlier this week, and said:
"We do feel he has enough talent to be a fourth outfielder, no question… I think what I'm seeing is, we have a young man who has tremendous talent, who is still growing in baseball, as far as baseball goes. With that growth, you're going to get some setbacks. For instance (on Tuesday night), he has to get that bunt down, or at least attempt to put that ball on the ground, and he didn't do either… These are things you have to live with, because the guy is playing regularly at the major-league level. You have to ask, does that fit? It can fit if everything else is doing its thing. If he's having a career year, you can live with some of those mistakes."
…it's hard to follow jerry sometimes, when he's trying to politically correct and no offend his players, but, i think, what he's trying to say is, if pagan is going to hit like he's hitting, and the rest of the team is healthy and performing like it should, i.e., Jose Reyes and Carlos Beltran are in the lineup, David Wright is hitting for power, etc., then the team can live with pagan's mental mistakes because it all fits together and the team will score runs regardless…
…in either case, i do not think it is wise to imagine pagan as a starting outfielder on next season's team… i do, however, love knowing he's in the mix, and, if all else fails, can handle the job, while giving me peace of mind knowing he can be one hell of a multi-talented bench player…
To listen to Manuel's entire interview, click here.
Pagan is eligible for arbitration each of the next two seasons, after which he can become a free agent.

A highly respected soldier in the Israeli Defense Forces, Menachem (Aki Avni) is also a devout student of controversial West Bank settlement leader Rabbi Meltzer (Assi Dayan). Despite the army's doubts and the Israeli Secret Service's suspicions, Menachem receives permission to lead an army unit made up of his fellow students from Rabbi Meltzer's West Bank Yeshiva. Rabbi Meltzer's star pupil and Menachem's best friend, Pini (Edan Alterman), gladly accepts the Rabbi's invitation to court his beautiful, headstrong daughter, Michal (Tinkerbell). But Michal, suffocated by settlement life and repulsed by her father's expectations, is drawn not to Pini's religious devotion but to Menachem's quiet strength. As the Rabbi's agenda, the Army's control and Pini's desperation all build to a boil, Menachem and Michal's secret passion threatens to destroy more than just their reputations. A violent scheme to blow up the Temple Mount soon puts all their allegiances to the test.
From a peaceful desert sunrise on the Wailing Wall to a frantic chase through an 1800 year-old network of tunnels, Time of Favor raises issues of religious faith and duty to one's nation that are inextricably relevant to our lives today.
Director Joseph Cedar. Running Time: 101 mins. Color. Hebrew with English subtitles. DVD Special Feature: original theatrical trailer
