- Members are expected to comply with their respective applicable local, regional, and national laws.
- The right to grant, deny, revoke, or suspend membership is reserved by and under the sole authority of the Legion Command and may not be superseded by any rules of any Legion subdivision.
Article V: Organization
- The 501st Legion is a worldwide club organized into Garrisons, Squads, and Outposts. A Legion Command level consisting of the Legion Commanding Officer, Legion Executive Officer, and an administrative staff coordinates the club. The Legion recognizes that most activities will be on the local level. For this reason, the Legion is divided into subdivisions based on geographical boundaries. The list and boundaries of Garrisons, Squads, and Outposts is maintained by the Captain of the Guard.
- The Legion Council is a body made up of the Legion Command and representatives from each Garrison and Outpost. This council is moderated by the Legion Commanding Officer. Legion members may bring issues of contention or concern before the Council through their Council representatives, or in cases where their issues are with their Council representatives, through any other member of the Council (which includes Legion Command).
- Detachments are special resource groups that focus on a specific costume or costume category and are not bound by geography.
Article VI: Legion Officers
- Legion Commanding Officer (LCO): The LCO is the top administrator and president of the club. The LCO appoints an administrative staff to assist with club operations, which may include but are not limited to formulating policies, moderating the Legion Council, and organizing partnerships with outside parties.
- Legion Executive Officer (LXO): The LXO assists the LCO in club operations as vice-president. The LXO may perform duties as assigned by the LCO, and reserves the authority to act as club president in the absence of the LCO.
- Legion Captain of the Guard (LCOG): The office of the LCOG interprets and enforces club rules. The office of the LCOG serves as an impartial mediator for disputes among members or officers, oversees disciplinary hearings, moderates Legion elections, and maintains the Legion map of units.
- Legion Membership Officer (LMO): The office of the LMO is responsible for reviewing and processing applications for membership and maintaining member information in the Legion database. The LMO drives costume policies, including acceptable costume types for membership and quality control of costume submissions. The LMO is the final arbiter of member costume issues and approvals. The LMO supervises and advises Detachments, Garrison Membership Liaisons, and Garrison Web Liaisons.
- Legion Webmaster (LWM): The office of the LWM manages all Legion Web resources and advises unit Webmasters.
- Legion Merchandising and Branding Officer (LMBO): The office of the LMBO oversees all Legion merchandise operations, including those of local units. The LMBO ensures that all merchandise projects adhere to rules and guidelines that govern use of images, pricing, and distribution.
- Legion Public Relations Officer (LPRO): The office of the LPRO serves as the Legion's advocate and primary point of contact with the public and outside parties. The LPRO serves as the executive editor of all Legion publications and multimedia productions. The office of the LPRO also serves as the primary point of contact for celebrities and VIPs.
- Legion Charity Representative (LCR): The office of the LCR serves as the Legion's primary point of contact with outside charitable organizations. The LCR manages documentation of Legion charitable activities and may publish and promote the Legion's charity efforts to the membership and the public.
- Collectively, the officers listed here are referred to as "Legion Command."
Article VII: Elections
- The offices of LCO, Garrison and Outpost COs, Squad Leaders, and Detachment Leaders are all elected positions in the Legion. All other positions are appointed by their respective supervising official.
- Active members in good standing are eligible to run for elected office and vote in elections within their respective jurisdictions.
- All elected offices serve one-year terms.
- The office of LCO is elected by popular vote of the active members of the Legion. The offices of Garrison and Outpost CO, Squad Leader, and Detachment Leader are elected by popular vote of the active members of each respective unit.
- Annual elections are mandatory for every unit, unless an incumbent official stands unchallenged, in which case an election may be waived.
- In the event a unit commander or leader is unable to continue in their office, that unit must hold an immediate election for a replacement. Units that maintain an executive officer will be under the authority of that executive officer until the completion of the emergency election. If both the commanding officer and the executive officer are unable to serve, the Legion COG will temporarily assume nominal leadership until the completion of the emergency election. If a Squad Leader is unable to continue in their office, the parent Garrison's CO will assume administrative responsibility until the Squad's emergency election is complete. Inability to serve may be determined by either voluntary resignation of the office, or a period of 30 days of unresponsiveness in office after all reasonable means of communication are exhausted.
- Any unit of the Legion (including the Legion itself) may address egregious problems in leadership by requesting a recall election of the unit's leader. Requests for recall elections must be submitted to Legion Command for consultation, review, and approval before proceeding. Recall elections are not to be used to express dissatisfaction with the results of a properly conducted and legitimate election process (concerns with improperly conducted elections should be forwarded to the Legion COG, and are outside the scope of this provision).
Article VIII: Policies and Amendments
- A committee will be formed consisting of various members of the Legion to oversee and manage amendments to the Charter. This committee is called the Charter Review Committee (CRC) and is under the direct supervision of Legion Command.
- Amendments to the Charter may be proposed by any active Legion member to the CRC directly or via their Legion Council representative at any time.
- The CRC will review the proposal and if accepted, will craft the language of the proposal. The CRC may reject proposals deemed inappropriate or contradictory to the spirit of the Legion at its discretion.
- Draft proposals will be submitted to the Legion Council for review. During review, the proposal may be further revised by the CRC with suggestions from the Legion Council. Legion Council members are authorized to share works in progress with their respective unit members for additional input. Completion of revisions is due no later than 7 days following submission of the draft.
- Upon reaching a satisfactory state of completion of the proposal signified by passing a two-thirds super-majority vote by participating Legion Council members, the CRC will present the completed proposal to the Legion members for ratification.
- Proposals require a two-thirds majority of voting members to pass.
- If passed, the proposal becomes an Amendment and is effective immediately upon completion of the vote.
- Proposals may be submitted at any time during the year. The CRC may also work on proposals at any time throughout the year. Draft Amendments must be submitted by the CRC to Legion Council no earlier than August 1 and no later than August 17 of any given year, to permit conclusion of membership ratification by August 31. Any proposals, drafts, or revisions falling outside of this window will be reserved for the August of the following year.
Article IX: Merchandise and Branding
- The 501st Legion is a club based on a copyrighted property and is not authorized to profit from the sales of merchandise bearing images or ideas from the Star Wars property.
- Merchandise or materials created to promote or advertise the 501st Legion (referred to herein as "merchandise") will be sold only to members of the Legion and at cost. Merchandise are not to be sold to the general public unless authorized and be approved by Legion Command. All merchandise must meet Legion guidelines and approved by the Legion prior to production. Merchandise not abiding by these guidelines will be considered unauthorized and its sale shall be forbidden to members of the 501st Legion. Producing or distributing unauthorized merchandise may be subject to disciplinary action by the Legion.
- Any items bearing the words "501st Legion", "Fighting 501st", "Vader's Fist", the 501st Logo, URLs, or those of any sub-units of the Legion, or any other term or image that can be reasonably identified with the Legion or its sub-units are considered representative of the 501st Legion. Proposals for such items are to be reviewed by the office of the Legion Merchandising and Branding Officer, and approval must be granted by the LMBO prior to production.
- The Legion does not endorse or manage the creation or sale of props, costumes, or costume parts or materials by anyone for sale to others. The Legion will not intervene in private sales or transactions of non-Legion merchandise or products. Legion rules do not extend to any disputes related to these matters.
Article X: Disciplinary Action
When the Legion's standards of conduct are violated, it is an unfortunate necessity to address them. While the Legion recognizes that membership is voluntary and should be fun, it also recognizes that there must be some protection afforded its members from abuse and misconduct. To this end, the Legion adheres to the following prescription for disciplinary action.
- All commanders are expected to enforce the rules of the Legion in their respective jurisdictions. Any member behaving in an unacceptable manner or violating Legion rules or the tenets thereof is subject to disciplinary action. Disputes within any Legion subdivision are to be managed by the commander of the subdivision, unless the commander is involved in the dispute or there is any other clear conflict of interest on their part, in which case the dispute must be escalated to the Legion level.
- Complaints should be directed by members to their immediate commander. The commander is responsible for mediating the dispute. This action may take the form of an informal meeting between the parties, up to formal hearings.
- The Legion COG must be notified prior to commencing any hearing at any level and be granted the option to observe the proceedings or be otherwise included in communications related to the hearing.
- In the event a conflict or complaint involves members of different units, the commander of the primary complainant serves as the presiding officer and conducts a meeting or hearing with the defendant and the commander of the defendant's unit. If one of the parties involved in a dispute is an officer of a unit, the hearing will be overseen by the Legion Captain of the Guard or a designated representative.
- All hearings are conducted on the Legion forum, unless otherwise directed by the LCOG
- No member may be removed from the Legion without the knowledge and approval of Legion Command.
- Following the resolution of a dispute or hearing, members have the right to appeal the decision to the LCOG within a specified timeframe. Any judgment by the LCOG following an appeal is final.
Article XI: By Laws
- Bylaws are additional rules, processes, and procedures to manage regular operations, provide guidelines and instruction. The Bylaws set expectations of actions and behaviors in and for the Legion and its members. Bylaws are found in the document titled Operations Protocol.
- Amendments, alterations, or repeal of bylaws may be proposed by active Legion members to the Charter Review Committee directly.
- The CRC will follow the same review, acceptance/rejection, and Council consultation process as described for Charter Amendments in Article VIII.
- Completed proposals will be presented to the Legion members for ratification.
- Amendments to the bylaws require a simple majority of the voting members to pass.
- If passed, the proposal is incorporated into the bylaws and is effective immediately upon completion of the vote.

First Financial Aid Posting
Preparations for the first Financial Aid Posting (FAP) for the Fall 2013 semester began on September 25. The first posting can take several days to complete because of the large number of files that need to be processed.
Financial Aid officials are saying that if a student has aid that is posted to their account by the LSU Eunice Business Office, a message will be displayed on the Home tab of their MyLSUE which will list the type(s) of aid posted, amount(s) of aid and a time frame for reimbursement.
All refund checks will be mailed to the address on the student's admissions record. If a student lives in Bengal Village and owes a balance on their housing, they will receive instructions from the Business Office of how the refund will be handled.
If a student discovers that aid was not posted to their account, that student should call Financial Aid at 337-550-1282 to get a better understanding of what prevented those funds from being posted.

Jim Schwartz admits the Lions don�t have much room for error. (Daniel Mears/Detroit News)
Allen Park This was the fear, that the Lions weren't just built on a house of cards, but on a house of yards. Their offense stacks 'em high, as high as any team in the NFL, high enough to wobble.
If the Lions aren't frauds, now would be the time to show it. It starts Sunday at home against the Packers or it doesn't start at all. Until we see otherwise, the Lions are the least-productive productive team in football, piling up fancy numbers to dress up a 4-5 record.
The math path to the playoffs looks borderline hopeless, especially in the NFC North, with a brutal schedule. The next three games are at home, but they're against the Packers, Texans and resurgent Colts, a combined 20-7. Even if the Lions win six of their last seven, they'd be 10-6 and still not guaranteed a playoff spot.
It's not dead but it's dire, and it's about time the Lions acted like it at the start of a football game.
"I wouldn't call it desperate or dire," Lions coach Jim Schwartz said Monday, a day after his team's 34-24 loss at Minnesota. "I think our word is urgent. We don't have a whole lot of wiggle room for mistakes down the stretch. We have to play our best."
Still waiting
Even when the Lions went 10-6 and reached the playoffs last season, their trend was troubling, needing huge rallies to pull out victories. It's a dangerous way to play, and it's hard to keep up. Their early production is still awful, trailing at halftime in eight of nine games, and their second-half comebacks have become more mirage than miracle.
The Lions offense ranks second in the NFL with 406.1 yards, trailing only the Patriots. Matthew Stafford is fourth among quarterbacks with 2,722 passing yards. Calvin Johnson leads all receivers with 974 yards, but has only two touchdowns. Even the defense, with a decimated secondary, somehow ranks 10th. But this team isn't about defense, which is part of the problem.
If you thrive by putting the ball in flight, the results can get a little flighty. It's been muttered for a while that the high-pass, low-run offense could be derailed. Their talented group defied convention last season but defenses have adjusted, jumping all over Johnson, denying big plays, and Stafford is finding it more difficult.
Running backs Mikel Leshoure and Joique Bell have provided short-range power, but the Lions are the only team in the league without a run longer than 20 yards. That means a lot of turf has to be chewed up in smaller chunks, and it only takes one mistake to stall it.
Incredibly, the Lions are averaging 10.5 points through three quarters of games — and 13.1 in the fourth. And how about this nugget, dug up by ESPN Stats & Information: Stafford was 3-for-10 against the Vikings when the margin was 10 points or fewer; 25-for-32 when it was more.
Are they waiting too long to unleash, or worse, are opponents sitting back after building a lead?
"We try our very best in the first half and the second half, it's just worked out that way," Schwartz said. "What is significant is that we have battled back. We haven't had those games that just completely slipped away.
"Rather than getting credit for that, I think it just emphasizes what we failed to do in the first half."
Odds are stacked
The Lions hate to hear this, but since they began their turnaround with a 5-0 start last season, they're 9-12 (counting the playoff loss to the Saints). They haven't beaten a team that finished the regular season with a winning record, although they notched a 28-24 victory over the 6-4 Seahawks two weeks ago.
I'm not calling for a revamping of the entire Lions philosophy here, but offensive coordinator Scott Linehan has done a poor job adjusting. The loss to the Vikings was a referendum on the run-versus-pass debate. The Vikings were missing dynamic receiver Percy Harvin but rammed the incomparable Adrian Peterson for 171 rushing yards. Johnson had 207 receiving yards and it wasn't enough.
Schwartz isn't overly interested in the math, but the numbers are the numbers. With Chicago, Green Bay and Minnesota all ahead of them in the division, and so many others in contention for the wildcards, the odds are daunting.
"We'll leave the math for the mathematicians and statisticians," Schwartz said. "The last two Super Bowl winners were 7-7 with two weeks to go." (Actually, the Giants were 7-7 but the Packers were 8-6).
Players have looked for other signs, too. Kicker Jason Hanson said the Lions saw what the Tigers did, rallying from an underachieving start to reach the World Series.
"The Tigers weren't the best, and then you get hot at the end and you can make a run if you get in," Hanson said. "But we haven't even given ourselves the right to think about that yet. We got the team to do it, character-wise. I hope the guys are ready to turn it up a notch, if we want a chance."
They're down to a slim chance against the toughest opponents possible — Packers, Texans, Falcons and math. Top quarterbacks are coming up, from Aaron Rodgers to Matt Schaub to Matt Ryan, to test their battered secondary. Yes, five of the final seven are at home. But if the Lions consider themselves furious finishers, they need to start by showing they're not fraudulent flashes.

On Thursday, Sen Mark Kirk (R-IL) returned to Capitol Hill
for the first time since having a stroke in January 2012 that paralyzed the
left side of his body. Kirk climbed the steps to the Capitol using a 4-prong
cane and assisted by Vice President Joe Biden and Sen Joe Manchin (D-WV) while
his colleagues in the 113th Congress cheered.
Kirk was scheduled to hold a press conference Thursday with physicians and
researchers from the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago and Northwestern
Memorial Hospital to discuss the treatment he underwent.
APTA member Michael Klonowski, PT, DPT, PCS, who
was Kirk's primary physical therapist in Chicago, told USA
that he was "more emotional" than he thought he would be as he watched
his former patient make the climb.
"Seeing what he's done
is absolutely inspiring," Klonowski said. "I've seen him go up tons
of stairs. ... It was really something to see him do what he did today."
In an interview published Wednesday in the Chicago Sun-Times Kirk said that his experience with the
health care system has given him a new perspective. He said that he plans to
take a look at the Illinois Medicaid program, which he noted allows 11 rehab

For the global accountancy body, the EU executive is rightly targeting and associating long-term thinking with an integrated approach to address the pressing challenges linked to the financing of long-term investment needs, both for the private and the public sector.
ACCA supports the European Commission's decision to look in a holistic way at how the financial services sector channels investments, at the efficiency and effectiveness of financial markets, at the role of public policies in catalysing long-term saving and financing, and, last but not least, at facilitating SMEs' access to finance.
John Davies, head of technical at ACCA says: 'Many of the areas targeted by the Green Paper are close to ACCA's heart, such as corporate governance, accounting and corporate reporting, taxation, the role of the public sector, and especially access to finance for SMEs. We believe that new banking regulations, CRDIV in particular, could potentially risk making it more difficult for banks to finance the recovery in Europe and so we welcome the Commission's thinking on alternatives. In any case, it is important to acknowledge that Europe is more reliant on its banking sector for growth than the US or other major economies, and a shift to equity financing in particular is long overdue.'
John Davies stresses: 'We welcome moves to promote and facilitate the adoption of a more long-termist approach by businesses, large and small. Many of the problems we currently face are the consequence of businesses paying too much attention to short-term targets and performance measures and not enough to ensuring the sustainable and long term development of the business.'
'We recognise the importance of financial reporting for investors and so it is legitimate for its part to be considered. Reporting has to focus on giving relevant information to investors, whether they turn out to be long or short-term. Fair value has an important place in providing up-to-date information as long as its limitations are understood, though it will not always be the relevant measure especially for assets that are to be employed in the business rather than be sold' John Davies continues.
John Davies adds: 'From a public sector perspective, ACCA has always been an advocate of greater transparency of financial reporting, together with clarity on long-term policy and decision-making that goes beyond the short-term political cycle. In addition, sustainability must remain an important concern in shaping decisions on the size of any member state's overall investment programme and the role of investment institutions have an important role to play in this context.'
'We also believe that state aid and public procurement can help support local economies and dealing with the financial difficulties presented in a post-financial crisis world. Similarly, there is a need for a sound public private partnerships - PPPs - framework, but there is a caveat: PPPs should only be used where they can show a clear benefit for taxpayers and citizens' John Davies explains.
'Access to long-term finance is only one aspect of the wider picture on this issue but it is nonetheless important to incentivise businesses in financial terms. ACCA welcomes the opportunity to contribute to this wide-ranging public consultation and looks forward to the upcoming debates' John Davies concludes.

ownCloud[1] is open source software that allows you to create your own cloud storage. This allows you to share data, contacts, and calendars with other devices and users.
In PC-BSD®, you can create your own private cloud service by installing ownCloud either into a traditional jail that you created using Warden® or into a TrueOS® installation. For security reasons, installing ownCloud directly onto a desktop installation is not recommended, as the web and database services it requires may expose the desktop to security vulnerabilities. If you are installing ownCloud on a PC-BSD® system, create a traditional jail as it isolates the software installed into the jail from your desktop operating system. This section demonstrates how to install and configure ownCloud using Warden®.
Install and Start the Required Services
First, create a traditional jail using these instructions. Once the jail is created, make sure that the jail has been started, then go to the "Tools" tab of the jail and click the "Package Manager" button as seen in the example in Figure 9.9a.
Check the box for www ➜ owncloud, then click the "Apply" button to install these packages.
Once installed, go to Tools ➜ Service Manager which will open the screen shown in Figure 9.9b. Highlight the apache24 service and click the "Enable Service" button and then the "Start" button. Repeat for the mysql service.
Verify that you can reach the web server by typing the IP address of the jail into a web browser. You should receive an "It works!" message. You will need to first allow incoming TCP port 80 on the jail interface using Firewall Manager if you use a web browser on a different computer.
Configuring ownCloud
You are now ready to download and configure ownCloud. If you are using a traditional jail on your desktop, go to Tools -> Launch Terminal to access the jail's command line. Once at the command line of the jail, download ownCloud into the Apache data directory.
cd /usr/local/www/apache24/data fetch http://download.owncloud.com/download/2012.4.5.12/owncloud-2012.4.5.12-enterprise.tar.bz2 tar xzvf owncloud-2012.4.5.12-enterprise.tar.bz2 chown -R www:www owncloud
Next, configure the MySQL database, substituting ocuser and mypass with the username and password that you wish to use:
mysql -u root mysql> create database owncloud; mysql> grant all on owncloud.* to ocuser@localhost identified by "mypass"; mysql> quit
Next, add the required PHP options to Apache. Open /usr/local/etc/apache24/httpd.conf in an editor and look for this line:
#AddType application/x-gzip .tgz
Add the following lines directly below that line:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
Then, look for the following section:
<IfModule dir_module> DirectoryIndex index.html </IfModule>
and change it to:
<IfModule dir_module> DirectoryIndex index.html index.php </IfModule>
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server restart
Test your changes from a web browser by adding "owncloud" to the end of the IP address of the jail. For example, type http://10.0.0.1/owncloud/. You should see the setup screen shown in Figure 9.9c.
Input the name of the user and password that will be used to administer ownCloud, then click the " "Advanced" button. In the advanced settings, click the "MySQL" tab and input the MySQL username, password, and database name that you configured previously. Click the "Finish setup" button to save your changes and enter your new cloud interface -- shown in Figure 9.9d.
Click the left panel of the interface to access a type of media. For example, if you click "Files" and then the "New" button, you can upload a file, folder, or from a URL. If you click "Contacts", you can add a contact or import/export the address book.
Click the "Settings" icon at the bottom of the left panel to add users, configure applications, change the administrative configuration, and to access "Help".
Instructions for synchronizing the calendar and address book, integrating with a file manager, and integrating with a media player can be found in the documentation section of the ownCloud website[2]. Synchronization clients are available from the owncloud site[3].

Love these Boots
I got these boots in the mail a couple weeks ago. They fit great and are beautiful on! So many compliments!!
Buford GA
Very cute but to high of a heel!
These are such cute boots if they could just have a 3 inch heel instead of a 3 & a half inch! That half an inch makes a big difference! The higher the heel the harder it is to walk in them, & I am already 5ft" 8in". I love so many of your heels & boots, but they are mostly all to high of heel. Really very cute though!

The promise Brennan Boesch once had as a starting outfielder with the Tigers has diminished to the point where a trade is likely. (Robin Buckson/Detroit News)
Nashville, Tenn. - Tigers general manager Dave Dombrowski shared an interesting revelation this week at baseball's annual winter meetings.
While rival executives are inquiring about many players within the Detroit organization, it turns out the queries have been more frequently about players on the major league roster than prospects.
And one name certain to have been asked about is Brennan Boesch.
The Tigers, of course, don't really know what to make of Boesch, the left-handed-hitting corner outfielder. He has stretches in which he's a legitimate offensive force, but he too often goes MIA.
This past season, it was mostly the latter — a big reason why his spot on the Tigers' 25-man roster, or even anywhere within the organization, is in serious jeopardy. Andy Dirks is the runaway favorite to win the left-field job, but even the names of youngsters Avisail Garcia and Nick Castellanos are perceived to have more of a chance at the gig than Boesch.
"We'll just see what ends up happening as far as when he goes to camp," said Dombrowski, who decided to tender Boesch a contract for 2013 — when that was far from a given. "We've seen a really good Brennan Boesch and we've seen a Brennan Boesch that hasn't been quite as good."
OK, somebody has to say it: That's a massive understatement.
Now, back to Dombrowski.
"And if he's a really good Brennan Boesch, then he's a really good hitter, and he can force a lot of playing time and make some tough decisions," Dombrowski said. "And if not, we'll tackle that."
Meteoric start
Boesch, 27, arrived on the scene in Detroit in 2010, and made an immediate impact with a great first-half — even spurring chatter that he deserved to make the All-Star team as a true rookie. But the second-half was an absolute debacle, as he batted just .163 (compared to .342 in the first half).
So the following winter, the talk was all about consistency. That's what the Tigers wanted to see from baby-faced Californian in 2011 — and he somewhat delivered. His batting average fell off after the All-Star break, but not as severely. Plus, a thumb injury he tried to play through was partly to blame.
Eventually, the thumb forced him to shut it down, and he was left off the postseason roster, a big blow for a Tigers lineup that also was dealing with injuries to Delmon Young and Magglio Ordonez.
The story of last offseason, then, was his health. If he was healed, it was widely believed he'd be an impact player again — at least, an impact bat; his defense in right field never will draw rave reviews — because he finally showed the consistency that he lacked his rookie year.
And the thumb, it was fine.
But aside from a couple hot streaks, nothing went right in 2012 for Boesch, not in the first half and not in the second half. He started only two games after Sept. 17 — and none in the playoffs again. The breaking point seemed to be the pivotal, early September series with the White Sox in Chicago. Manager Jim Leyland was stubborn and continued to pencil Boesch's name into the lineup, hoping with at least one swing he'd take advantage of the quaint U.S. Cellular Field dimensions.
So clear Leyland was in his reasoning for playing Boesch, he even took the unusual step of actually telling Boesch to swing for the fences. But still, the at-bats, for some reason, appeared hesitant. And the last straw was the makeup game in Chicago on Sept. 17; Boesch got another chance and went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts. And that was just about it for him.
Garica, the rookie, then became Jim Leyland's go-to guy for right field, even in the playoffs.
Benchings never sit well with any major leaguers; Boesch seemed to grow particularly perturbed and moody, and that couldn't have helped his cause — since he already seemed to be pressing. He showed some good patience at the plate his rookie season; he was a free-swinger in 2012 (.286 OBP), which might've been a sign of lacking confidence. Slumping hitters fear falling behind in the count.
Boesch, a third-round pick by the Tigers in 2006 out of Cal-Berkeley, has a reputation as a streaky, hot-and-cold player. The Tigers, though, aren't convinced that's the whole truth.
"I don't really call them hot-and-cold streaks for really young hitters. I call it the education of hitting in the big leagues," Leyland said. "When Boesch came up, he was really impressive. We think that's still there, and maybe he hasn't made the necessary adjustments."
(Not unlike another Tigers outfielder, Quintin Berry, who started with a bang, then faded away as the rest of the league started learning how to get to him.)
Leyland did point out all hitters — even veterans — have ups and downs. He likened it to school. Even the Harvard-bound senior can get stumped once in a while.
"In school," he said, "even after you learn it, you have some lulls sometimes where it's not clicking."
The Tigers also acknowledge the struggles might've, in the end, got the best of Boesch mentally. And once you've lost focus upstairs, it's a nightmare trying to put the puzzle back together.
"Sometimes the mental end plays into it, you're in a spot where you start to press, and all of a sudden are trying to get out of it," Dombrowski said. "Sometimes you're your own worst enemy."
Said Leyland: "It can be a mental game, whether you've played one year or 10 years."
Crowded outfield
OK, so now what?
The Tigers either will carry two backup outfielders or two backup infielders — though the latter appears more likely, because with nine-time Gold Glove winner Torii Hunter in the fold, Leyland no longer has to worry about using a defensive replacement in the outfield late in close ballgames.
And if they only carry the one backup outfielder, it'll be a right-handed hitter, either one acquired on the free-agent market (which the Tigers prefer) or Garcia or Castellanos, to alternate with Dirks.
Under that scenario, it appears Boesch would have to beat out Dirks, head to head, to make the team. And barring an injury, that just doesn't seem all that realistic. Dirks not only showed a lot at the plate last season, but the Tigers love the idea of a Hunter-Austin Jackson-Dirks outfield.
The Tigers were asked if a stint in the minor leagues could help a player like Boesch, even though he hasn't played at Triple A Toledo since 2010, and hasn't played full-time there since 2009.
"Could he benefit? Perhaps," Dombrowski said. "But at some point, I think you have to start looking at that when a guy reaches a certain age and service time, because their heart's not gonna be in it."
Add it all up and read between the lines, and, frankly, it'd be a surprise if Boesch isn't traded next week or the week after — or certainly before camp begins.
He should make between $1 million and $2 million in 2013, and he won't command a ton in a trade, so he's affordable on both counts. And even though last season was awful, by his standards, he did still have 12 home runs, and 54 RBIs - which really was a Ryan Raburn-type season, before Raburn bombed and had and even more horrific 2012 season than Boesch.
So don't be surprised if a team like the Royals, Mariners or Rays takes a chance.
The potential still is there — even if his spot with the Tigers might not be for very much longer.

President Obama speaks as Speaker of the House John Boehner, left and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, right, look on during a meeting with bipartisan group of congressional leaders in the Roosevelt Room of the White House on November 16. (Olivier Douliery / Getty Images)
President Barack Obama and congressional leaders struck an upbeat tone following the opening round of talks about avoiding the so-called fiscal cliff, and deep, across-the-board defense cuts.
The Nov. 16 talks came 46 days before massive cuts to planned federal domestic and defense programs would kick in unless Congress sends the president a $1.2 trillion deficit-reduction plan he is willing to sign. If lawmakers and Obama fail, a $500 billion, decade-spanning cut to planned military spending would take effect Jan. 2.
In a statement issued shortly after the first round of talks, the White House called the negotiations "constructive," adding Obama and the leaders of the House and Senate "agreed to do everything possible to find a solution that averts the so-called fiscal cliff."
All eyes are focused on these efforts because economists of all political stripes say if those cuts — done without strategic calculations — are triggered at the same time a slew of tax cuts also expire, the American economy would tumble into its second deep recession in five years. Pentagon officials, hawkish lawmakers and analysts also warn the nonstrategic nature of the military cuts would hurt national security, though some experts disagree.
"Both sides agreed that while there may be differences in our preferred approaches, we will continue a constructive process to find a solution and come to a conclusion as soon as possible," the White House said.
House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said after exiting the White House that he laid out a "framework" that focuses on "reforming our tax code and reforming our spending." Boehner added he believes his framework is consistent with the "balanced approach" the president and congressional Democrats are demanding.
"To show our seriousness, we've put revenue on the table as long as it's accompanied by significant spending cuts," Boehner told reporters. The speaker said he is "confident" about a deal.
"I feel very good about what we were able to talk about in there," said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev. "We have the cornerstones of being able to work something out. We're both going to have to give up some of the things that we know are a problem."
During the hour-long meeting, "we had a recognition that every person in America knows that we must reach an agreement," said House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif.
Boehner reiterated his longtime stance that a so-called grand bargain deal that reforms the tax code, alters domestic entitlement programs and cuts other federal spending — while also raising new revenues — will have to wait until the new Congress is seated next year. More time will be needed to complete such a comprehensive package than is available in the remaining month of the lame duck Congress, Boehner and others said.
But Pelosi said she also thinks it is important that "we send a message of confidence to consumers, to the markets, in the short run, too.
"We should have a goal in terms of how much deficit-reduction," Pelosi said. "We should have a deadline before Christmas. We should show some milestones of success so that confidence can build as we reach our solution."
Notably, she said, "It has to be about cuts. It has to be about revenue. It has to be about growth. It has to be about the future."
Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell said federal entitlements must be reformed to match the changing demographics of the nation, but he also called for big federal spending cuts.

From The Outfit
These super-light, silkweight, boxer briefs are engineered for optimal moisture management during stop-and-go activities. During active phases, moisture is wicked across the entire garment, aiding temperature regulation. Entering a rest phase, the broadly dispersed moisture evaporates quickly, speeding dry-time to keep the user drier and more comfortable. Encapsulated silver-ions provide durable and long-lasting odour control.

In this file photo provided by Columbia Tristar, Billy Bob Thornton is shown in the movie "Bad Santa." / Anonymous, AP
Apparently some people in Canada are so unhappy with the NHL lockout, they're taking it out on children.
An angry Santa Claus at a Toronto Christmas market made a three-year-old boy cry, first insulting his red plaid coat before ripping on his Toronto Maple Leafs hat.
"The first thing he tells my son is, 'Oh, you look like Paul Bunyan,' " mother Mary Trent said. "Really? Is that appropriate?
"Then he said, 'Oh, you're wearing a Toronto Maple Leafs tuque, you shouldn't be wearing that, they suck.' At that point, I took my son and told him we should go, Santa isn't being very good today."
Trent said her son was inconsolable and cried all the way home to Mississauga.
"He wanted to know who Paul Bunyan was? He wanted to know why Santa said the Toronto Maple Leafs suck," Trent told the Sun Thursday. "I told him Santa was having a bad day. I can't really tell him Santa's a jerk."
The Bad Santa, who was on his first day on the job, was fired shortly after. The little boy did not note whether this particular Kris Kringle happened to be wearing this particular hat.

WTA tournament structure, categories, and format
The Women's Tennis Association or WTA was founded in 1973 by Billie Jean King. It manages, runs, and governs the WTA Tour which is a professional global tennis tour for women. It succeeded The Virginia Slims Tournament which ran from 1970-1973.
Organizational structure:
The WTA's organizational structure is best represented by the chart below:
The WTA has 3 offices across the globe. The main corporate headquarters is in St. Petersburg, Florida while the European and Asia-Pacific headquarters are strategically positioned in London, England and Beijing, China respectively.
The WTA acts as the premier organizing body in the world of women's tennis. It ranks players based on a set of tournament categories and awards the winners on career achievements or season performance and accomplishments.
The WTA Categories:
- The Grand Slam – the crème de la crème. Also called the Majors, these are the most important tennis tournaments held annually around the world – Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon, and the US Open.
- Then comes the Year-ending Championships, a.k.a, WTA Tour Championships, which is the fifth most celebrated women's tennis tour event. It comes right after the four Majors/Grand Slams.
- Next in line are the Premier Tournaments, implemented in 2009 to replace the Tier I and II WTA tournaments. The Premiers include:
- Four "Premier Mandatory" events
- Five "Premier 5" events
- Ten "Premier" events
- These Premier Tournaments serve as pathways to the WTA Tour Championships (or Year-ending Championships) as mentioned in the previous category.
- Now we go to the International Tournaments. Just like the Premier Tournaments, it was introduced in 2009 replacing the Tier III and IV events. It consists of 30 tournaments – 29 knock-out tournaments and 1 season-ending WTA Tournament of Champions.
- Lastly, the WTA 125k Series was launched in 2012 as an international women's tennis series. Also called WTA Challenger series, it sits at the second highest level in the women's competition division right below the WTA Tour and above the ITF Women's Circuit tournaments.
The Ranking Format
Players are ranked based on 52weeks ofintense hard work. It follows a cumulative system in which a player's results are summed from a maximum of 16 tournaments for singles and 11 for doubles.Depending on the tournament category she played in, the player is awarded a specific number of points. The more prestigious the tournament, the higher the number of points awarded (e.g. ranking first in the one of the Grand Slams, gives her more points than doing the same in the International Tournament).
The following are the WTA Awards:
- Player of the Year
- Doubles Team of the Year
- Most Improved Player
- Newcomer of the Year
- Comeback Player of the Year
- Player Service
- Karen Krantzcke Sportsmanship Award
- Tournaments of the Year
- Diamond Aces
- Fan Favorite Singles Player of the Year
- Fan Favorite Doubles Team of the Year
- Fan Favorite Breakthrough Player
- Humanitarian of the Year

The custodial services at the Harvard School of Public Health are provided Harvard University Facilities Maintenance Operations (F.M.O.) and are under the overall direction of the HSPH Operations Office.
Two on-site supervisors cover the workday between 7:00 A.M. and 10:00 P.M. and direct a custodial crew that attends to bathrooms, public areas, classrooms and auditoria as well offices and laboratories. Labs are attended to beginning at 2:00 P.M. and most offices after 5:00 P.M.
An important service, floor stripping and waxing and carpet shampooing may be arranged by calling 617-432-4270 and requesting a date for service. A reminder, all items on the floor of the area must be picked up by the occupants and secured before cleaning.
The custodial staff is also involved in the School's recycling program and we have designated a position within the crew to function solely in this program. Please help us to maintain our recycling program by depositing trash in the proper receptacle — i.e. mixed paper, metal cans, glass, batteries etc. "please participate, don't contaminate."
