Our genetic make-up, shaped through millions of years of evolution, determines our nutritional and activity needs. Although the human genome has remained primarily unchanged since the agricultural revolution 10,000 years ago, our diet and lifestyle have become progressively more divergent from those of our ancient ancestors. Accumulating evidence suggests that this mismatch between our modern diet and lifestyle and our Paleolithic genome is playing a substantial role in the ongoing epidemics of obesity, hypertension, diabetes, and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Until 500 generations ago, all humans consumed only wild and unprocessed food foraged and hunted from their environment. These circumstances provided a diet high in lean protein, polyunsaturated fats (especially omega-3 [?-3] fatty acids), monounsaturated fats, fiber, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other beneficial phytochemicals. Historical and anthropological studies show huntergatherers generally to be healthy, fit, and largely free of the degenerative cardiovascular diseases common in modern societies. This review outlines the essence of our huntergatherer genetic legacy and suggests practical steps to realign our modern milieu with our ancient genome in an effort to improve cardiovascular health. Mayo Clin Proc. 2004;79:101-108HDL = high-density lipoprotein; LDL = low-density lipoprote inHumans evolved during the Paleolithic period, from approximately 2.6 million years ago to 10,000 years ago. Although the human genome has remained largely unchanged (DNA evidence documents relatively little change in the genome during the past 10,000 years),1 our diet and lifestyle have become progressively more divergent from those of our ancient ancestors. These maladaptive changes began approximately 10,000 years ago with the advent of the agricultural revolution and have been accelerating in recent decades. Socially, we are a people of the 21st century, but genetically we remain citizens of the Paleolithic era. Today most of us dwell in mechanized urban settings, leading largely sedentary lives and eating a highly processed synthetic diet. As a result, two thirds of Americans are overweight or obese.2 The lifetime incidence of hypertension is an astounding 90%,3 and the metabolic syndrome is present in up to 40% of middle-aged American adults.4 Cardiovascular disease remains the number 1 cause of death, accounting for 41% of all fatalities, and the prevalence of heart disease in the United States is projected to double during the next 50 years.5 Despite remarkable pharmacological and technological advances, the pandemic of cardiovascular disease continues. At least for today, the genes we are born with are those that we will live and die with. Thus, the most practical solution for reducing the incidence of chronic degenerative diseases such as atherosclerosis is to realign our current maladaptive diet and lifestyle to simulate the milieu for which we are genetically designed. Living organisms thrive best in the milieu and on the diet to which they were evolutionarily adapted; this is a fundamental axiom of biology. All of the food consumed daily by our ancient ancestors had to be foraged or hunted from wild plants and animals in their natural world. In many respects, that Paleolithic world is gone forever, but insights gained from a wide array of disciplines are providing a clear picture of the ideal diet and lifestyle for humans. The hunter-gatherer mode of life became extinct in its purely non-westernized form in the 20th century.6 At the beginning of the 21st century, we are the first generation to have the genetic and scientific understanding to allow us to reconstruct the essence of this lifestyle and the means to afford it. Historical and archaeological evidence shows huntergatherers generally to be lean, fit, and largely free from signs and symptoms of chronic diseases.7 When huntergatherer societies transitioned to an agricultural grainbased diet, their general health deteriorated.8,9 Average adult height was substantially shorter for both men and women who consumed cereals and starches compared with

Hours of Darkness - Night Photography
Hours of Darkness is a collection of Night / Low Light Photography Featuring Color and Black & White photos created using film and digital cameras. Night Photography of various subjects from Architectural, Industrial, Travel, Nautical, Landscape and Transportation to Modern Ruins and Abandoned Asylums.
Night Photography has long been my primary focus in photography. This is because of the final product. I believe what makes a good photograph is a photo that makes you feel something the moment you look at it. For me all these photos do that. Night Photography is the process of capturing the movement of time. The final result is a photo that can't be seen with the naked eye. Night Photography requires a commitment. Most of the photos on this site are 4-8 min. exposures. And in the surrounding days of the full moon you may come away with only a few good photos after hours of work.
Night Photography shows many subjects in a new light. I have long been fascinated with Modern Ruins and Abandoned Places and photographing these places at night adds to there allure. Abandoned Asylums such as Central Islip Psychiatric Center, Kings Park Psychiatric Center and the semi Abandoned Pilgrim State Psychiatric Center. These places are filled with fabulous Architectural Details and massive landscapes of Abandoned Building and all have an interesting history. Also the Industrial Ruins of
A brief history of some of the locations photographed on Hours of Darkness.
Central Islip Psychiatric Center:
In 1887 New York City purchased 1,000 acres for a farm colony at $25 an acre. The farm colony officially opened May 6, 1889 with a total of 49 male patients from the city's Wards Island mental facility. Six years later there were 1,000 patients at Central Islip. In 1895 the state legislature put all New York City asylums under Manhattan State Hospital of Central Islip. By 1914 there were 122 buildings, and by 1955 there were 10,000 patients and more than 1,000 employees. At that point it steadily declined as therapies improved and the state budget tightened. In 1996 Central Islip Psychiatric Center officially closed with its remaining patients being transferred to Pilgrim State.
Kings Park Psychiatric Center:
In 1885 the city of Brooklyn established the first farm colony in a quite farming community. The Kings County Farm consisted of more than 800 to care for the poor and mentally ill. The farm colony originally opened with 55 patients.
As new building went up, so did the patient population. Soon the same problems that were plaguing the cities Asylums overcrowding and patient care were apparent at Kings Park. This lead to protest by the public and medical staff which lead to the state taking over both Long Island Farm Colonies in 1895.
By the 1900 the patient population had grown to 2,697 along with a staff of 454 and as time went on Kings Park grew to have more than 150 permanent buildings, including a bakery, Laundromat, amusement hall, bandstand, library, furniture repair shop, and nursing school. This made the Psychiatric center self-sufficient and therefore not very dependent on the rest of long island. In 1954 Kings Park Psychiatric Center hit 9,300 patients and after this the hospitals population began to decline. Drug therapy combined with a push to "decentralize'' psychiatric patients into community facilities or outpatient treatment reduced the need for the large psychiatric hospital. By the 1980's KPPC was a shell of its former self with many of it buildings being abandoned as it downsized. In 1996 Kings Park Psychiatric Center closed and its remaining patients were transferred to Pilgrim State.
Pilgrim Psychiatric Center:
Pilgrim opened on October 1 1931 with 825 acres and a population of 100 patients that were transferred from Central Islip Psychiatric Center. Named for Dr. Charles W. Pilgrim, Commissioner of Mental Health in the early 1900s. Nine months after it opened Pilgrim was caring for 2,018 patients. In 1954 Pilgrims population hit its peek of 13,875 patients. After this just like the other Psychiatric Hospitals the population began to decrease.
Pilgrim was the largest facility of its kind in the world when it was built. The hospital was self-sufficient, in that it had its own water works, electric light plant, heating plant, sewage system, fire department, police department, courts, church, post office, cemetery, laundry, store, amusement hall, athletic fields, greenhouses, and farm.
Today Pilgrim Psychiatric Center remains open. It is the last of the large farm colonies on Long Island. Although the future of Pilgrim is uncertain with many of its buildings laying in ruin or abandoned and much of its property has been sold to be redeveloped.
Fairchild Republic Company:
In 1926 The Fairchild Airplane Manufacturing Company took over a small aircraft company east of Farmingdale. In 1931, Alexander de Seversky opened another aircraft company. Seversky set a world speed record on October 8, 1933 in a plane his company built in which he flew at 177.79 mph. Then in 1938 his company was reorganized and become Republic Aviation Corp. In 1965 Republic Aviation Corp. was taken over by Fairchild Hiller Corp. of Maryland. In 1987 the plant closed its doors ending one of Long Island's great aviation companies, which produced the P-47 Thunderbolt fighter, the F-84 Thunderjet, F-105 Thunderchief and A-10 Warthog.
Liberty Industrial Finishing:
Liberty Industrial Finishing opened up operations in the late 1930's, manufacturing aircraft parts and trailers, also metal plating and finishing operations, including anodizing, electroplating, dying, and painting. Over the years there have been many industrial businesses since Liberty departed. Now the land is a superfund site after all the years of poor environmental practices.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - A new poll shows former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich now leads the Republican field in the presidential battleground state of Ohio.
The Quinnipiac University poll out Thursday represents a big comedown for businessman Herman Cain, the top pick of Ohio GOP voters in a similar poll in late October.
Gingrich is now the choice of 36 percent of the state's Republican voters. Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney is second with 18 percent.
No other candidate scored more than 7 percent, including Cain.
The poll shows President Barack Obama would face a tight re-election race in Ohio against either Gingrich or Romney.
The overall survey of 1,437 Ohio voters has a margin of error of 2.6 percentage points. The margin of error from 500 Republicans surveyed is 4.4 points.

This is a very fine rye whiskey. Distilled in Indiana by LDI (which gives it that flavor that I like), it's a little on the pricey side, but I like the stamp on the bottom of the bottle which I think makes up for it!

The Flyers? Nick Grossmann (left) tested his head injury right away in Game 1.
- Filed Under
The Flyers enjoyed an optional practice Monday afternoon at the Skate Zone, meaning veterans and regulars could take the day off, usually a welcome option during the NHL playoffs.
Nick Grossmann, a veteran defenseman with the scars and wear to apply for an AARP card, opted to skate after playing on Sunday in his first game in almost two weeks.
"It felt good," he said about his comeback in the Flyers' 4-3 overtime win over the Devils. ...

Tips on Choosing A Mortgage Broker
If you are looking for a mortgage loan and are overwhelmed by the sheer number of options that are there in the market, then it's time to look for a mortgage broker. With the right broker, it becomes much easier to sort through the jargon and technicalities to find a loan that meets your requirement fully.
Quite often, mortgage lenders put forward a complicated list of charges and terms, which may be incomprehensible to you unless you are familiar with how the industry works. A good broker can make sense of all the complex terminology and tell you exactly what it means for you in terms of cash outflow. With his experience in dealing with loan related paperwork, he can also look for any hidden costs that may not be apparent to you at first glance.
Work Together with Your Broker
It is very important for you to work closely with your mortgage broker so that you can be sure that he has understood your needs perfectly. To this end, you should first sit down and discuss with him what kind of property you are looking at, how much is acceptable to you in terms of the cost of the loan, what kind of payment schedule you can manage, and other such details.
When you are sure that you and the broker understand each other well, you can trust him to find a suitable loan from the right lender.
You should not forget that the mortgage broker is interested in profits too. While most brokers would honestly try to find the best loan for you, it is important for you to put in some background research to make sure that the broker has a good reputation. You can talk to his previous clients to find out how satisfied they are with the deal that they got.
Use Your Credit History as Negotiation Leverage
If you are able to find a reputed broker, you can stay assured that he will take customer satisfaction very seriously. Banks and other lending institutions often allow brokers to promote their loans based on the brokers' performance levels, speed of deal closure and reputation. Unless the broker has a good track record of satisfied customers, he will not be considered reliable enough by leading finance providers, which may hamper the broker's business opportunities.
Every broker wants to add reliable customers to his client list. Those who have a good credit history and are likely to be regular with their payments improve the broker's profile. This could be an important point of leverage, which you can use to get concessions from the broker.
Develop a Good Relationship
It is in your best interest to form a good relationship with your broker. A mortgage is a long term arrangement, and there could be times when you would need to refinance the terms of your loan. Your mortgage broker could be of immense help in such a situation.

The council couldn?t muster the required four votes Mon-day night to apply for a federal road-safety grant that would have funded the bulk of the $867,000 project.
With Councilmember Tiffany Ren? recusing herself because she lives within 500 feet of the potential project site, the council split 3-3 on the question of whether to pursue the grant.
Mayor Pamela Torliatt, Vice Mayor Teresa Barrett and Councilmember David Glass supported the application, but council members Mike Harris, Mike Healy and David Rabbitt did not.
Healy said he thought the road diet ? two travel lanes with a center left-turn lane ? between Washington and D streets would drive people away from the downtown area.
Rabbitt said the project would require a ?pretty significant match? of $105,000 in city funds and added that downtown business and property owners hadn?t been consulted.
?I think a lot of people feel out of the loop on this,? he said.
A representative of the Petaluma Downtown Association said the group?s board had voted to oppose the road-diet plan.
?We really hope this doesn?t happen,? gallery owner Linda Postenrieder told the council.
The city?s capital improvements manager, Larry Zimmer, acknowledged that notification of nearby merchants and property owners had been ?inadequate? but said it would be presumptuous of the city to begin planning the project before receiving the grant.
If the grant were secured, it would take at least a year to plan and build the new roadway, he said.

He spent two hours coaching the Swiss Floorball Team that will compete in the 2013 Special Olympics World Winter Games in PyeongChang, South Korea from January 29th – February 5th. Coach Simpson also stayed to support the team as they played a match against a class from the Einsiedein convent, where Team Switzerland have had their preparation camp before leaving for PyeongChang. The Swiss Special Olympics Floorball team won 12.6 and no doubt had a clear advantage getting tips and coaching strategies from the coach of the Swiss National Ice Hockey Team! It was a huge highlight for the athletes to meet their hero Sean Simpson.

Development of a Rolls-Royce crossover is still underway, but design chief Giles Taylor says the future model will look more like a wagon than an SUV.
"I'm interested in function and functionality. I'm looking to create a properly functional vehicle -- a shooting brake, not a crossover with a sloping roof," he told Autocar.
Autocar also reports the future Rolls-Royce model will based on the Ghost sedan family, can be imagined as "a kind of Mercedes GLK-plus-plus," and won't arrive before 2017. Expected to cost around £200,000 (about $336,000), Giles said that the new car's interior will be more "cool" and "modern" than current Rolls-Royces: "It will retain aspects of the current interior but will remain luxurious and a sanctuary. We are not talking about ostentation."
Although we reported last year that the Rolls-Royce crossover would be based on the BMW X7 -- itself an extended X5/X6 -- Autocar says the plan is now for Rolls to use a new platform that combines steel, aluminum, and carbon fiber. The architecture will be used for a BMW 9 Series ultra-luxury SUV, the all-new Rolls-Royce Ghost that is due by 2018, and of course the crossover. The BMW Vision Future Luxury concept shown in Beijing (pictured) reportedly rides on that platform and may preview the direction of a future 9 Series.
Like many automakers, Rolls-Royce sees newly moneyed Chinese buyers as the ideal way to grow its sales. Giles said that market has become more important to Rolls-Royce in recent years because, "Many customers are now Chinese entrepreneurs. They might be as young as 30 years old and are very interested in authenticity, Chinese heritage and prestige." The crossover model will likely be tailored directly to those types of customers.

Smarter snow plows might be on the way
Boulder, Colo. • Michigan, Minnesota and Nevada are deploying hundreds of plows with custom-designed sensors that continually measure road and weather conditions. The digital system, funded by the U.S. Department of Transportation, is designed to reduce accidents and save states potentially millions of dollars in maintenance. The system is being built at the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder.
If the national pilot program proves successful in the test phase, it will be transferred to private vendors and made available to more states by the 2014-15 winter season.
The system combines sensor measurements with satellite, radar observations and computer weather models, producing near-real time pictures of road conditions. With updates as frequent as every five minutes, transportation officials can promptly see potential problem areas before accidents occur.
Giving snowplows a more immediate picture of changing conditions just down the road could carry a wide range of benefits, said Sheldon Drobot, the scientist who has overseen the system's design.

MIAMI (AP) -- A champion French bulldog and 15 puppies have been safely returned home.
Twenty-nine-year-old Vigil "Shaggy" Birch has been charged with 16 counts of grand theft and dealing in stolen property.
The puppies were all under a month old and in need of their mothers, which the thief did not take. A police report put their value at $30,000 total. The champion French bulldog named "El Che" was valued at $50,000, though Cicuta said those figures were not accurate. He declined to provide a value.

Jonah Brucker-Cohen is hoping that his latest project, BumpNet, will determine if people's behaviours can change by
simply attaching rules to communications infrastructures, and he's doing it in a way that's sure to test the patience
of its participants. BumpNet itself is a public wireless network, but one with a maximum limit on the number of
connected clients — whenever someone new connects to it, BumpNet will bump the first person in the queue off the
network. Jonah says the aim of the project is to "accentuate the subtleties of public interaction with an increasingly
technological social atmosphere". We just wouldn't want to be the one fielding all the complaints from the disgruntled
test subjects.

A Loss for Individual Liberty
What does President Obama's re-election mean for freedom? As I discuss in my syndicated column this week, individual liberty will be curtailed.
So... We need to "fix" government! According to P.J. O'Rourke, that requires:
... "fixing" government the way we neuter a cat or spay a dog.
When it comes to foreign policy, we must teach our politicians to stop making messes in other people's yards. At home, they should stay out of our bedrooms.
Term limits would be good. When we give politicians power, they should know they don't get to keep it forever. They have to bring that power right back to us and drop it at our feet. "Good boy. Now go back outside!"
Politicians ought to be tamed.
Sadly, President Obama's swooning fans don't want to tame politicians. They don't even seem to think much about freedom. We attended Obama's victory party in Chicago (we go so you don't have to) and asked his supporters what Obama's reelection means for freedom. People reacted as if they didn't understand the question.
"Freedom?" one asked.
"Um, yes, I have no idea," said another.
It's not on their radar, and that's upsetting. Some wouldn't know freedom if they fell over it.To many, "freedom" means getting the government to force women's employers to pay for birth control.
Sorry, that's not freedom. That's force.
Obama's supporters seem to think it's enough to put this extraordinary man in office. After that, he will take care of everything. Spare us the details.
"Obama is a classic example of this cult of the presidency," said David Boaz of the Cato Institute. "But the idea that any politician can just fix the problems in society -- that there's some magic there -- that doesn't start with Obama. It goes a long way back."

Nuart 2014: Outside, Part 1Street Art // Thursday, September 11, 2014
We have been showing you photographs of our week in Stavanger, Norway for the 2014 Nuart Festival, and today we have some looks at a few of the completed murals that have been added to the Stavanger skyline and town (and in the case of ±MAISMENOS±, added to the grounds of some apartment construction).
Nuart 2014: The InstallationsJuxtapoz // Monday, September 08, 2014
We learned a lot from this year's Nuart festival, and the many questions and conversations we had with artists and organziers alike, was that by the time the installations opened on Saturday to kick of the Nuart exhibition, it was clear that Europe has a group of street and conceptual artists making provocative and challenging works just at a time that the battle between street art and curated muralism has reached a critical mass.
Nuart 2014: Murals and Installations, in ProgressStreet Art // Friday, September 05, 2014
This year's Nuart Plus program, a series of lectures, talks, and academic debates (okay, the debate is in a pub, and the academics get thrown out the window a few drinks in) have kicked off as the murals, street interventions, and installations are in progress at Nuart in Stavanger, Norway. The spirit of this year's academic portion, and the spirit of Nuart in general in 2014, is the battle of unsanctioned street art versus the ongoing, curated mural festivals popping up around the world.
Anders "STRØK" Gjennestad @ Reed Projects, Stavanger, NorwayStreet Art // Monday, May 19, 2014
Each year when we head to Nuart in Stavanger, Norway, we always like meeting and learning about new waves of European street artists. One artist who has been at Nuart in the past is Anders "STRØK" Gjennestad, who now has an exhibition of stencil works at Stavanger's Reed Projects.

Chapter 2
Badger was always out looking for girls, he needed round the clock watching, and he was definitely trying to make my life hard. Yet there was something about this girl that he had that gave me hope. She walked tall and proud, yet she was the lowest of the low, a lonely girl. I knew by the panic she flew into about hearing about the school that this was her first time, yet normally girls start getting taken to The School the moment they start menstruating, how did she manage to keep hidden all this time? I had a feeling she wouldn't tell me if I persisted, but would if I showed her she could trust me, that obviously meant a lot. It also helped me a lot that he told her his plan, it's easier to stop if I know what's going on.
She glanced back to see if I was following her with a questioning look on her face, but I didn't know what she meant, I needed to talk to her if was to help her, we needed a plan.
So, quietly as I could I crept up on her, yet she managed to hear me and turned round quickly. Smiling at her gently, trying to tell I wanted to help I fell into pace with her, that way her footsteps were covering mine, though she didn't seem to make any at all, how I have no idea.
She let me fall into pace with her without speeding up or slowing down, showing she was willing to trust me, until I took her hand. She jumped away, abruptly and gave me a killing glare. At The School they teach us mind communication, with skin contact no one can over hear our conversation, it was the easiest way to plan an escape but I needed skin contact, and judging by her reaction beforehand that was not going to be easy. I reached out again, just to show her my hand, and then slowly laid it on her shoulder, she looked uncomfortable but she didn't shy away completely and that was a start.
Hello?I whispered to her mind, not really expecting an answer, you have to learn to do that. Yet she answered
Surprised I almost took my hand off and broke the contact. Smiling at the fact that she could mind communicate I answered Hi, I'm Otter It felt like the right thing to say
"Hi" she answered "I know you're Otter"
Yet she didn't tell me her name, leading to the idea that she didn't trust me fully yet, but that came as no surprise to me.
I want to help you out I told her slowly.
"Thank you, what would you suggest, you would know The School better than me"
I was impressed with her formality, she spoke well, and considering girls weren't schooled it was impressive. I don't know how to stop him while he has claim, but the moment he leaves you I promise I will claim and look after you for that was the best I could do for her.
"Thank you" she replied "do you know if running away from Badger counts as a lost claim?" she asked.
Impressed by her question I told the truthfully I don't know, no girl has even attempted that yet I told her.
"Thank you" she repeated "do you know if you can show me a map or vision of The School so if I do run I can know where I am going?"
Again I was impressed, this girl had guts and wasn't afraid to use them, I truthfully didn't know that I could give her the vision of The School yet I wanted to see if she actually would make a break for it so I projected the map of The School to her.Thank you?
I beat her to say that, as a joke and her grin told me I did well
"Yes" she said "Thank you"

Is America Now Where Our Founding Fathers Planned?
Our founding fathers envisioned a country where the traditional roles of government were reversed. The monarchy dictatorship societies that have prevailed throughout human history have been proven to fail time after time. It seemed that this form of government only resulted in an oppressive tyranny. This could be solved by a creating a republic where the people of the country had the power, not the king. America's founding fathers fled from the English monarchy for the purpose of religious freedom. Years later, after the American Revolution, they founded this country upon the basis of rights, freedom, (more…)

I wish I was the one you saw,
But wishes don't come true.
I wish I could see others,
But all I see is you!
You finally said HI,
My heart jumped 10,000 flips,
I thought I could Fly.
But then then you took her hand,
I thought I would Die.
Too bad wished don't come true,
Because you just made me cry!

Pictish Trail | FENCE902 | Released: 01/01/02
"The work of Johnny Lynch, The Pictish Trail, is more stirringly subversive stuff from the Fence Collective. Lynch writes warm, welcoming, yet quite isolated, singer-songwriter tales of a life locked away somewhere near St. Andrews … tiny keyboard patterns, acoustic neo-folk rumblings and all manner of unidentifiable oddball noises, wrapped around an infectious mysterious x-factor somehow inherent in all Fence output. Akin to Lou Barlow sobbing his tiny heart out while submerged in Loch Ness, this is the sound of Scotland quietly floating far, far out to some deep enchanting waters. And never dreaming of floating back" Comes With a Smile #12

Played with my wife, Susan, and two friends, Jim & Lou. It was a beautiful day, sunny and 80 degrees. The pin was back, so I hit a 9 iron. Yardage was approximately 135 yds. I teed up my Titleist NXT Tour golf ball. I made great contact. The ball hit about 4' from the hole and rolled into the cup for my first hole in one.

Flushing, NY (SportsNetwork.com) - Christian Yelich reached base three times and drove in the eventual game-winning run with a seventh-inning double as the Miami Marlins topped the New York Mets on Wednesday, 4-3, in the rubber match of a three-game series.
Marcell Ozuna, whose hit streak ended at 11 games after an 0-for-4 performance on Tuesday, and Donovan Solano each had three hits for Miami, which got a quality start out of Henderson Alvarez.
Alvarez (11-6) gave up two runs on eight hits in six innings for the Marlins, who learned Wednesday that injured superstar Giancarlo Stanton will not play again in 2014.
"He was throwing the ball well, he threw a lot of strikes," Marlins catcher Jeff Mathis said of Alvarez. "
Stanton sustained multiple injuries when he was struck on the left side of his face by a fastball on Sept. 11. The 24-year-old leads the National League with 37 homers.
Three straight singles with one out in the first inning put Dillon Gee in an immediate hole, and the Mets starter was unable to pitch himself out of it. Solano scored on a wild pitch for the game's first run, and Garrett Jones drove in a run with an infield single down the third-base line.
Yelich walked, stole second and scored on Solano's RBI single in the second inning to give Miami a 3-0 lead.
The Mets got a pair back in the fifth inning, when Gee started a rally with a single to center. Matt den Dekker also singled and with the bases loaded and two down, Lucas Duda ripped a two-run single to center.
Gee was replaced with two outs and a runner on second in the seventh inning, but reliever Josh Edgin couldn't escape without allowing Adeiny Hechavarria to score, as Yelich doubled to make it 4-2.
Gee (7-8) was charged with all four runs on seven hits.
"His numbers are dictated by the fact that he has just not commanded the baseball like he knows how," said Mets manager Terry Collins.
The insurance run proved crucial, as Curtis Granderson grounded to second to score Duda in the bottom of the eighth.
Steve Cishek retired the side in order in the bottom of the ninth, earning his 37th save of the season.
Gee fell to 3-1 against the Marlins in his career ... Granderson went 0-for-3
against Alvarez, falling to 1-for-17 lifetime against him ... The Mets went 1-
for-9 with runners in scoring position.

A Power Grid Smartens Up
Communications technologies will make Boulder's grid more efficient and environmentally friendly.
Boulder, CO, should soon boast the world's smartest–and thus most efficient–power grid, thanks to a $100 million project launched last week by Minneapolis-based utility Xcel Energy. The project will equip homes with smart power meters that help people reduce demand when electricity is most expensive. Substations will also use information from the meters to automatically reroute power when problems arise. Among its other benefits, the project should help Boulder residents take better advantage of renewable power sources.
In today's power grids, a steady but essentially blind flow of electricity is all that links power plants, distribution systems, and consumers. Mike Carlson, Xcel's chief information officer, says that Boulder will test how much more reliable, cleaner, and cheaper grid operation can be when each element communicates with the others. If the benefits prove as great as Xcel expects, Carlson says, the Boulder experiment could unleash rapid investment in "smart grids." The equipment is ready, Carlson says. "We're not talking the Jetsons or Star Wars here. If we can get the right standards and the right incentives and the right financial structures, it's viable technology today."
Rob Pratt, who runs the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory's GridWise program, agrees that Xcel's project should–if fully implemented–provide the best test to date of smart-grid benefits because it will make Boulder the "densest concentration" of smart-grid technologies. "You can't have one smart-grid customer in Boulder and two over in Fort Collins and a few dozen in Denver, and have it mean as much as having all those people on one street," says Pratt. "Here we're talking about a whole city, which would be amazing."
Carlson says that Xcel chose Boulder for its relatively isolated electrical distribution system and its population of roughly 120,000 (including students). Xcel plans to install 50,000 new smart meters serving about 100,000 of those residents, a large enough pool that the company can experiment with different approaches. It could, for example, deploy meters from different vendors, which send information in different ways: either wirelessly, or over the power lines themselves. The company could also experiment with sending different signals to the meters to try to influence consumer demand. (See "Gadgets to Spur Energy Conservation.")
One scheme that Xcel plans to test is a way to make better use of renewable energy. On today's grid, intermittent sources of renewable power–such as wind–must be backed up by more conventional fossil-fueled or nuclear power stations. "Xcel's leading the country right now in wind power–we have almost 3,000 megawatts on our system and plan to double that–but we have a consumer base that doesn't modify its habits when that wind isn't blowing," says Carlson.
Instead of trying to store renewable energy for when it's needed–a pricey proposition–Carlson thinks that the smart grid may be able to "store" demand for when the wind happens to blow. Xcel plans to send signals when the wind is up, and some consumers will be able to program their smart meters to, say, activate their dishwashers or heating panels in response. "If the system could signal wind availability–or any renewable energy source, for that matter–would we see an adjustment of consumption? We think yes," says Carlson.
