Black Friday
- Release Date: Feb 9, 2007
- Summary: Based on a book by Hussain Zaidi, Black Friday is the story of the 1993 bomb blasts that killed 257 people in Mumbai.
- Director: Anurag Kashyap
- Genre(s): Drama, History, Crime
- More Details and Credits »
Score distribution:
Positive: 4 out of 5
Mixed: 1 out of 5
Negative: 0 out of 5
Anurag Kashyap's Black Friday is a superb and devastating piece of cinema that with justification can be compared favorably to Gillo Pontocorvo's classic "The Battle of Algiers" in its dispassionate yet sweeping journalistic inquiry into cataclysmic social and political events.
The movie would be all crisp surfaces without the internal combustion of Menon, as a man who bears down on familiar procedures in order to avoid being overwhelmed by his emotions.
Epic and raw, Black Friday is cut from the same bloody cloth as "Salvador" and "Munich."
Opening with the Mohandas Gandhi epigram "An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind," it humanizes the bombers without excusing their actions.
Despite its large cast and complex criss-crossing from past to present, the movie rarely catches fire as an involving human drama.
Score distribution:
Positive: 3 out of 3
Mixed: 0 out of 3
Negative: 0 out of 3

- "Bad Words" (comedy, R, 89 minutes, reviewed by Richard Roeper, Chicago Sun-Times). I loved the misanthrope played by Jason Bateman in his directorial debut, and you might, too, if your sense of humor is just sick enough. A loophole has allowed this big bowl of hate to compete against fourth-graders in a spelling bee, where he spews insults with a deadpan style that leaves his victims speechless. A pitch-black dark comedy. HHH1/2
- Captain America (action, PG-13, 136 minutes, reviewed by Roger Moore, McClatchy Tribune News Service). Chris Evans really sells the earnestness, dry wit, sense of duty and righteousness of the icon of American values that he represents in this sequel, and it's great that "The Winter Soldier" has a comic book spin on privacy and civil liberties issues straight out of today's headlines. But this film lacks that lump-in-the-throat heart of the first; it's a generic sequel, with inconsequential villains and predictable flourishes. HH1/2
- "Divergent" (drama, PG-13, 113 minutes, reviewed by Roger Moore, McClatchy Tribune News Service). The latest outcast-teen-battles-The System thriller is similar enough to "The Hunger Games" that hardcore Katniss fans may dismiss it. But it's a more streamlined film, with a love story with genuine heat and deaths with genuine pathos. Tris Prior (Shailene Woodley) lives in a post-war future in the semi-ruined city of Chicago. When teens hit a certain age, they go through "The Test" to be divided into different factions of society; but Tris is different and has to try to hide that. HH
- "Grand Budapest Hotel" (dramedy, R, 99 minutes, reviewed by Moore). Wes Anderson's latest film is a dark, daft and deft triumph of design details. He ensconces his eccentric characters (various top actors) and us in a time of baroque, imaginary four-star hotels for a tale told by a long-dead novelist (Tom Wilkinson) about the hotel story that inspired him. HHH1/2
- "Le Week-end" (romance, R, 93 minutes, reviewed by Ann Hornaday, The Washington Post). This is an alternately prickly and knowing tone poem to desire and disappointment whose light touch far belies far deeper, darker human understandings. Meg and Nick — brought funnily, bitingly to life by the equally fabulous Lindsay Duncan and Jim Broadbent — travel to Paris in this graceful portrait, and their sojourn reignites youthful passions on the one hand, and years of accumulated resentments and regrets on the other. Jeff Goldblum introduces notes of anarchic, daffy humor. HHH1/2
- "Mr. Peabody & Sherman" (animated, PG, 88 minutes, reviewed by Moore). Dreamworks Animation charmingly revives this feature from the old "Rocky & Bullwinkle Show," creating a winning, witty and warm cartoon that captures the flavor, tone and some of the snappy pace of the TV shorts. Mr. Peabody is a Nobel Prize-winning pooch who "invented the fist-bump, auto-tune and Zumba," and then adopted Sherman. He's given the boy, now 7, a head-start on school by taking the kid time-traveling in The Wayback Machine. The animated details are a 3-D feast for the eyes. Things drag, here and there, but kids will dig the jokes and there is plenty of wordplay for adults. HHH
- "Muppets Most Wanted" (comedy, PG, 112 minutes, reviewed by Moore). This is funnier than the last Muppets movie, with far better songs, punnier puns and all manner of geo-political gags, cultural wisecracks and star cameos. Sure, you can take the kids, but they might not get all the jokes. Kermit and the Muppets have barely reunited as a group when a predatory manager (Ricky Gervais) lures them into a worldwide tour that's basically a plot to put a criminal mastermind and Kermit look-alike in charge of the show. The voices are different and the movie's too long but this is what PG comedy was meant to be. HHH
- "Noah" (biblical epic, PG-13, 131 minutes, reviewed by Roeper). One of the most dazzling and unforgettable biblical epics ever put on film. Director Darren Aronofsky has delivered an emotionally involving and sometimes loony interpretation of the tale of a God-loving man (Russell Crowe, ferocious and razor-sharp) and his ark. Jennifer Connelly, Ray Winstone, Emma Watson and Anthony Hopkins round out a stellar cast. HHH1/2
- "Sabotage" (action thriller, R, 109 minutes, reviewed by Roeper). After stealing $10 million from a drug cartel, elite DEA agents become targets in a brutal, bloody, dark and at times gruesomely funny thriller. The team is played by a strong cast headed by Arnold Schwarzenegger, being typically Arnold, Sam Worthington, Olivia Williams and Terrence Howard. HHH1/2
- "Son of God" (historical drama, PG-13, 138 minutes, reviewed by Roeper). The first feature in recent memory telling us a life-spanning story of Jesus Christ recounts the events with great reverence but, alas, is not a good movie. The special effects are just OK, and in the title role, Portuguese-born heartthrob Diogo Morgado hits a lot of wrong notes. H1/2

Picture: Justin Bieber - Justin Bieber performs to a sold-out crowd at GelreDome - Arnhem, Netherlands - Saturday 13th April 2013
Justin Bieber was the target of an online scandal on Saturday (04May13) after hackers posted false messages on an American news site's Twitter.com page, outing the singer as a homosexual.
Computer hacking group the Syrian Electronic Army claimed responsibility for breaking into E! Online's secure social networking site and suggested the teen pop star had 'come out' to newsmakers.
The first tweet announced, "Exclusive: Justin Bieber to E!online: I'm a gay", while another suggested the singer's on/off girlfriend Selena Gomez was supporting his decision.
The hackers also targeted United Nations Goodwill Ambassador Angelina Jolie and her work with Syrian refugees fleeing to Jordan, posting "Angelina Jolie admits, in E! latest issue, that Jordan is to blame for the Syrian refugees' atrocious conditions."
Chiefs at E! Online have since deleted the tweets and posted an apology which reads, "This account @eonline was compromised and some incorrect information was sent out. We're working with Twitter now to fix this."

I grew up within walking distance to Lock 1 and we would often bike here and spend the day asking the sailors to throw down coins.

It's one of the big "tourist" things in St. Kitts. It's where ships climb mountains! haha. I've seen it many a times, and it still remains quite the feat of engineering.

Huge Hiking Area
There is this park called Short Hills. It is such a great place for hiking, and it is huge! There are so many different paths you can follow. And you bike, walk, ride a horse, whatever you want. It is so pretty there in the the summer. But make sure you have lots of time to explore...and make sure you follow the trail markers. It is very easy to get lost. It has happened to me! Yeah, maybe bring a cell phone just in case.

The number of Americans filing first-time claims for unemployment insurance payments rose for the first time in five weeks, a sign further improvement in the labor market depends on faster economic growth.
Applications for jobless benefits increased by 17,000, to 361,000, in the week ended Dec. 15, Labor Department figures showed Thursday. Economists forecast 360,000 claims, according to the Bloomberg survey median.
The figures signal that the expansion probably needs to proceed more quickly to encourage companies to hold the line on head counts and step up hiring while Congress debates the nation's budget and tax rates. The Federal Reserve said last week it intends to keep policy accommodative to invigorate the economy and help sustain a decline in joblessness.
"The labor market is far from making sustainable and substantial gains, which is what the Fed is looking for," Bricklin Dwyer, an economist at BNP Paribas in New York, said before the report. "We're not going to be able to gain much traction without getting resolution on the fiscal front. If we do, we should start beginning to see a lot more business investment in 2013."
A Labor Department official on Thursday said there was "nothing unusual" that affected that day's figures.
The four-week moving average of claims, a less-volatile measure, declined to 367,750, the lowest since the end of October, from 381,500.

The Top 5 Holds Leaders In The MLB For 2015
Hunter Stokes (Chief Writer): Follow @stokes_hunter21
Follow The MLB Reports On Twitter Follow @mlbreports
Holds is a category that is starting to garner more respect each and every campaign in the MLB. Having said that, it doesn't always mean the pitcher is throwing well if he owns a lot of them for the year. It is just one stat that should be accompanied by others.
When searching to figure out who will have the most of these in a season, it is important to see the amount of games the guy will enter.
For the last several years, Tyler Clippard has dominated in the National League With his trade to the American League, it opens up the leaderboard for this campaign.
It has been said, that the former Nationals Reliever will see some mop-up duty as a closer for the A's to start the year. Had Sean Doolittle been healthy from the start of the year, I would have placed a massive wager that Clippard would lead the MLB in Holds one more time.
Instead, I will go with his teammate Eric O'Flaherty to make the top 5 on the list. I also don't think it would be a foreign idea to see Ryan Cook push the top Bullpen Holds Leaders by years end. Read the rest of this entry
The Top 5 Closers In The MLB For 2015
Hunter Stokes (Chief Writer): Follow @stokes_hunter21
Follow The MLB Reports On Twitter Follow @mlbreports
With the fiasco that is the Detroit Tigers Bullpen. I look for these guys to roll through several different Closers in 2015. Joakim Soria would be the 1st one to attempt after Joe Nathan fails.
I also think the Yankees are going dually use Dellin Betances and Andrew Miller depending on the situational maneuvering matchups. New York will be hard pressed to make the playoffs, but I do think they will net one of the higher team Save totals.
The same could probably said for the Boston Red Sox. I think the near 40 year old Koji Uehara will have a tough time staying healthy for 100% of the opportunities, however he will be just outside the mark.
St. Louis may end up using someone different from Trevor Rosenthal, because we are due for them to change 9th inning guys. Adam Wainwright, Jason Isringhausen Jason Motte, Ryan Franklin and Edward Mujica have all seen the mantle over the last several years for the RedBirds.
Rosenthal has actually had one of the longer stints, however he really struggled at the end of the 2014 year (despite 45 Saves), and it carried over to the playoffs, where he featured 10 base runners, while only recording 11 outs. I am thinking he will not have as many chances in 2015 as well.
Projected Top 5 Home Run Hitters In The MLB For 2015
Hunter Stokes (Chief Writer): Follow @stokes_hunter21
Follow The MLB Reports On Twitter Follow @mlbreports
Fantasy Baseball is turning out to be a 365 day year proposition these days. A lot of the talk over the airwaves centers around the best power hitters in the game right now. I think we can all agree on that the game's power has declined over the last few years – without the aid of PED's/Amphetamine use.
Overall, there are several players who still possess sick power. For anyone that watches batting practice at the games, a lot of the guys can all yak it over the fence at will when they know where the ball is going from their BP chucker. Doing it in the game is another matter.
Last season's HR winners were Nelson Cruz and Giancarlo Stanton, even though the latter missed the last month of the campaign when he was horrendously beaned in the face. The OF formerly known as Mike, is back to claim the title again. Read the rest of this entry

He is not receiving the kind of fanfare that Derek Jeter is this year, (although maybe he would if he was retiring too and had announced it), by Ichiro Suzuki has put forth a decent year in 2014.
His .284/.323/.338 Slash Line is not something to write home about, but he is a nice 3A Outfielder on a club that has seen its fair share of injuries.
Heading into the last 4 games of the year, the 10 time 200 hit man, has 99 hits on the season, thus giving him 2841 Hits in his MLB Lifetime.

It Is Time To Move Miguel Cabrera Permanently To The DH Role
I am not talking just about 2014 here. Miguel Cabrera has come off his short rest, to bash out 8 hits in 3 games – since taking the position of DH on the club. So I say…just leave him there forever.
Often I have wondered why more teams don't just take advantage of the slot in the American League. Instead, for most clubs, the Designated Hitter is used as an off day, or for matchup preferences.
You want to know why Boston has 3 World Series in the last 10 years… I will tell you… David Ortiz!!
Big Papi has been so much more productive than every other player at the role, that having him against the pack gives the Red Sox a clear cut upper hand.
I know Cabrera is making megabucks now, but are you really going to miss his defensive prowess at 1B?
Who cares about piling up AL MVP's because the voters are always biased about 1 way players. The Tigers should be going for World Series Titles, and what better way to preserve their #1 commodity. Read the rest of this entry
"Stoking The Fire Segment" – MLB Games Are Too Long But Fantasy Baseball Is a Godsend!
Hunter Stokes (Chief Writer): Follow @stokes_hunter21
Follow The MLB Reports On Twitter Follow @mlbreports
I tried to watch the Mariners vs Rangers a few months ago on MLBTV.
5 Instant Replay reviews, many pitching changes, and the game lasted 3 hours and 30 minutes – and this was a 4 – 3 9 inning game.
It is not hard to figure out why games are longer in length.
Money Ball has forced every team to wear down pitchers, see as many tosses from the Starting Chuckers as humanly possible.
30 years ago, it was more of a rip it and grip it approach.
Strikeouts and Walks are at an all time high, but also are some pre-pitch rituals. Read the rest of this entry
Jeter Passes Yaz, Maybe Ties Wagner for 7th On ALL Time Hits List?: Plus #2's Historical #'s
By Chuck Booth (Lead Baseball Analyst/Website Owner): Follow @chuckbooth3024
Follow MLB Reports On Twitter Follow @mlbreports
Derek Jeter had 3 base hits in last night's 4 – 2 loss to the Texas Rangers. In doing so, the man now has 3420 hits for his career.
Carl Yastrzemski had 3419 to hold onto the 8th spot previously, but Jeter's 3420th hit seems to be confusing when you look at the websites of both http://www.mlb.com and http://www.baseballreference.com
BBREF has Honus Wagner listed at 3420, which would have El Capitan tying that mark for 7th last night, while MLB has Wagner listed at 3430 Career Hits.
All will be a moot point when Jeter passes the 3431 hits plateau in a few weeks, and shortly after that he should nestle into the 6th slot for good, when he passes Cap Anson. (3435)
For those that still don't give Derek Jeter the respect he deserves, the man also is the Career Hits leader ever for an Infielder.
Of his 3420 base knocks. 3337 have come as a SS and 81 at the DH position, which is ahead of Wagner, Anson, and Eddie Collins.
The other 2 hits come via pinch hitting.
Wagner and Anson both saw some time in the Outfield during their time. Read the rest of this entry

Beane Spins Magic Again In World Series Quest: Picks Up Samardzija + Hammel For Straily + Prospects
By Chuck Booth (Lead Baseball Analyst/Website Owner): Follow @chuckbooth3024
Follow MLB Reports On Twitter Follow @mlbreports
Billy Beane knows his current squad's best chance to win the World Series now.
He has upped the ante, by acquiring Jeff Samardzija and Jason Hammel from the Chicago Cubs for highly rated SS Addison Russell, SP Dan Straily, and young prospect OF Billy McKinney, with a player to be named later or cash finalizing the deal at a later date.
I like this move…rather I love this move.
The A's GM saw what happened to his club the last few weeks when matched against the pitching of the Tigers, and knew he had to bolster his team for the stretch – to replace A.J. Griffin and Jarrod Parker, who both went down to Tommy John Surgeries this campaign. Read the rest of this entry
The A's Should Trade Jim Johnson To Tampa Bay For Grant Balfour
Billy Beane just hasn't been on the bad end of many deals in his recent days. Trading for Jim Johnson may turn out to be his worst move ever.
Originally it looked like another genius move, trading away an MiLB player in Jemile Weeks – for a guy who has back to back 50 Save seasons on his resume, but it has been a colossal nightmare for the AL Bay Area franchise.
Johnson was given a 1 YR deal worth $10 MIL. This represents about 12% of the team total payroll of just over $80 MIL for the 2014 campaign.
The dollars doled out hurts the team more than anything else. Had this man just been inept, without carrying a heavy price tag, it would have been a 4th and 40 situation (think what you do in football in that scenario.
What is too bad is that Beane actually looks smart in not giving Grant Balfour his cash for the kind of deal he wanted either. Read the rest of this entry

Hunter Stokes (Chief Writer): Follow @stokes_hunter21
Follow The MLB Reports On Twitter Follow @mlbreports
Edwin Encarnacion has continued his torrid pace for HRs, after a quick brief spell had cooled him down.
Last night, he took over the lead in the AL+ overall MLB, with his 22nd and 23rd HRs. Not only that. he has risen past everyone in the MLB for RBI as well with 62.
It was hit 6th Multi HR effort since May 8th. and he is on a 2 game HR streak. If indications are anything, he will club another long ball today, as the man already possesses 3 3 game HR streaks.
EE has now blasted 20 HRs and added 40 RBI since May 6th.
Back at that point, the man was struggling with his power at 3 HRs, and was still decently productive with 19 knocked in. The Blue Jays were in a 3 way tie for the cellar of the AL East.
They have ridden the big 1B's filthy hot bat to a 29 – 16 record, and have sole possession of the division right now. Read the rest of this entry

Edwin Encarnacion hit his 16th HR of the month last night, as part of his 5th Multi HR effort since May 8th.
EE is has been on fire for the last 20 games, and has effectively tied Mickey Mantle for the most HRs ever hit in May.
For his part, Encarnacion jumped to just 1 back of Nelson Cruz for the MLB and AL Lead.
Jose Bautista also did yard work for the 13th time in his season. Along with EE, Joey Bats helped stake the Jays to a lead.
The OF even through out Billy Butler on a single to right at 1st base. Unfortunately the Toronto club lost the game on an error, and said adios to their 9 game win streak.

George Springer is the only batter in the MLB to have a consecutive game HR streak in the MLB heading into action today.
The Astros RF belted his 4th HR during his 3 game HR streak on Sunday in a Houston 4 – 1 win over the Seattle Mariners, to split the 4 game series 2 – 2.
Justin Upton took over sole possession of 3rd place in the NL with his 13th HR yesterday.

MLB HRs Of Note Saturday May 24, 2014
Having been in attendance personally to watch George Springer light up Brandon Maurer for HRs in his 1st 2 AB, this guy is starting to be in the zone.
After a slow start, the Astros 24 YR old RF is starting to crush the baseball around the yard, with 6 HRs and 14 RBI in his last 14 Games Played.
Springer only had 2 HRs and 6 knocked in during his 1st 19 contests.
Not only did he have the only Multi HR effort yesterday in the bigs, He added his name to four fresh faces that have HRs in two straight games.
Pablo Sandoval hit a Tater Trot for his last 2 games, and has clubbed 4 HRs in his last 6 Games Played overall.

2014's Top Home Run Hitters (MLB): HR Streaks (3 Active) (Puig, Dozier, Crawford) + Goldy's Big Night)
Paul Goldschmidt absolutely obliterated Dodgers Pitching on Saturday night, touching them up for 2 HRs, 2 – 2B, 6 RBI 5 Runs, Added 12 Total Bases, and even walked once for good measure.
Goldschmidt also was the only MLB'er to smack 2 big flies yesterday. Furthermore he entered a logjam of players that are now tied for 4th place in the NL with Charlie Blackmon, Carlos Gomez, Brandon Belt, Justin Upton Adrian Gonzalez and Yasiel Puig.
Speaking of Puig, he hit a HR for a 2nd straight game, and his 4th smash over the fence of the week. He finds himself back in the top 5 in several offensive categories.
Troy Tulowitzki enjoyed home cooking again, with his 3 – 4 night, with his 12th HR to stay tied with other NL Leader Giancarlo Stanton.
Both Jose Bautista and Brian Dozier did yard work yesterday, to draw themselves in a tie for 3rd place each with Nelson Cruz of the Baltimore Orioles.
Current HR streaks that ended yesterday were Derek Dietrich at 2, and Josh Donaldson at 3 games straight, although the A's 3B hit a Triple and added 3 RBI in the win versus the Indians in Cleveland Saturday. Read the rest of this entry
2014's Top Home Run Hitters (MLB): HR Streaks (2 Active) (Donaldson-3,Dietrich-2) + Reddick WHAMS 2 Dingers FRI
Josh Reddick has broken out of his slump and pasted the ball over the last 3 games. His Grand Slam and 2 run HR effort last night, coupled with his HR a few nights ago, now give him 3 HRs on the year.
Reddick must continue his assault on pitching, as the team just picked up Kyle Blanks, and they are already armed with Coco Crisp, Yoenis Cespedes, Craig Gentry and Brandon Moss, all rotating through OF/DH/1B.
While Moss will see more action at the First Base Position, likely in a platoon with Blanks, both have capable ability to play RF like him.
Still for one night, it was good to see him rake the ball again, and all the Oakland fans are now bringing back the song " Careless Whisper" by Wham, as it is the slugger's walkup song.

2014's Top Home Run Hitters In The MLB: HR Streaks (3 Active): (Donaldson, Cruz, Morse) + EE IS Mashing!
Edwin Encarnacion had his 2nd Multi HR game of May already, and now after a slow start, has clubbed 8 HRs and added 30 RBI for the year.
Double EE has been one of the most consistent HR hitters in the MLB from the start of the 2012 campaign, as he trails only Miguel Cabrera (94 HRs) and Chris Davis (88 HRs) – with hit total tally of 86 Homers in that time frame.
Encarnacion hit 42 HRs in 2012, and nailed 36 of them last season.
In addition to his 2 Multi HR games, he also had HRs in 3 straight games earlier in this month.
Juan Francisco and he are carrying the club, with teams seemingly pitching around Jose Bautista.
Francisco himself as done yard work 7 times in just 82 AB this year. The new Blue Jays 3B has given them an infusion of offense.
It is kind of weird that the Brewers gave up on him – after this 27 Year Old, (who can play 1B/3B and PH) cracked 13 HRs and 32 RBI in his 240 AB for the 2013 Year.
The Brew Crew opted for Mark Reynolds, who was more expensive, but could potentially draw more walks. Both of them strike out a ton.
Anyways, Francisco had hit 20 HRs and added 50 RBI in his last 322 AB in the big leagues. This will suit the Canadian franchise just fine, even if his whiff rate his high.
It is funny how names continue to pop out within this organization. There was Juan Encarnacion, then Edwin Encarnacion.
Then you have Frank Francisco, Ben Francisco – and now Juan Francisco, which is a mix for Ben Francisco and Juan Encarnacion.
Of course they already have two Jose's in Bautista and Reyes, and they also had Perez's last year.
And I digress. Read the rest of this entry
2014's Top HR Hitters In The MLB: HR Streaks (3 Active): (Ortiz, Solarte, Donaldson) + Abreu's Monster Start In 2014
David Ortiz not only hit jacks in 2 consecutive games, the ALL – Time DH HR leader hit 2 of them, in both Tuesday and Wednesday's game.
For his efforts, he has tied for 2nd in AL HRs. The man keeps on ticking even at the age of 38.
Nelson Cruz blasted a shot that almost brought the O's back in a game they trailed the Tigers 6 – 0. The O's may have lost 7 – 5, but they continue to receive great play from this man.
Cruz was a bargain basement deal at 1 YR/$8 MIL, for a guy who is currently on pace to smash over 40 HRs, and drive in well over 120 RBI.
These are the kind of numbers the 33 Year Old was posting for the Rangers in 2013, before being placed on 50 game suspension for his part in the Biogenesis PED mess. Read the rest of this entry
2014's Top Home Run Hitters: AL/NL, HR Streaks (5 Active) + Multi HRs Games
There were a lot of HRs hit for how few games there were on a shortened Monday schedule last evening. Yasiel Puig hit a mammoth HR to erase a 2 run deficit into a lead.
The 2nd Year Dodger is on fire right now, and has hit back to back HRs in the last few games.
After a slower start, the 23 Year Old is now resembling the player he was last year, featuring a .318/.408/.551 3 Slash Line for the campaign – with 7 HRs and 29 RBI.
These totals put him on pace for about 33 HRs and 120 RBI for the year if he keeps it up. He will quickly be reengaged into the NL MVP Voting if his is the case. Read the rest of this entry
2014's Top Home Run Hitters: AL/NL, HR Streaks (3 Active) + Multi HRs Games
Yesterday, Derek Norris hit 2 HRs to lift the A's to a sweep over the Nationals. He also had back to back games of HRs early last month, and is featuring an OPS of nearly 1.100.
John Jaso, he is Catching tandem partner, had back to back games with dingers over the weekend.
Dustin Ackley hit HRs in both Saturday and Sunday games to put himself on our board of HRs. On Sunday, the guy clobbered two balls over the wall to give him 4 on the year.
Joey Votto, Troy Tulowitzki and Mark Teixeira all have been hit big HRs over the last 20 calendar days, all featuring 3 different stints, where they carried HR streak of 2 or more games.
Victor Martinez is also creeping up on the leaderboard with his recent power surge.
Finally, Charlie Blackmon did some yard work giving him 9 HRs and 29 RBI on the young season. He is tied for 5th in NL HRs. Read the rest of this entry

Well, usually a
simply means that the class isn't in your application's classpath. So that's where you should be looking first. Did you put the driver's jar file in the classpath?

Well, I know that I had to install the jar using the mvn install:install-file command. But where in Windows do I need to set the classpath? I'm used to Linux servers and don't know my way around, but you're right this sounds like it doesn't know where the driver is located. Or, can I add it in my pom when building my
project? I figured that MAven, with the dependency added, would calculate the classpath.

Since you're using Maven and Hibernate I guess you aren't a beginner, so I won't post links to the usual beginner tutorials about setting your classpath. But then I don't know what else to say. I didn't think that setting the classpath was really operating-system dependent, normally you just use the "-cp" option if you're running your application from the command line.
So probably you aren't running your application that way, then. How did you set your application's classpath in Linux?

Well, I wasn't quite sure. I've heard some people needing to set the CLASSPATH environment variable in Windows and I've never had to do that..so I wasn't sure if there were any special cases with Windows.
The classpaths are defined in a build.xml file. The project is an open-source project that builds using an ant command in conjunction with running maven target commands. Classpaths are defined in the build file and packs all the dependencies listed in the pom. The sqljdbc driver along with my other working dependencies have been loaded in the project's lib directory.
Below is a macro describing how the pom and classpaths are loaded. Since I've loaded dependencies in this open-source project many times before without having to manually set the classpath, I was thinking maybe there is something else that is wrong...like version problems, connection
issues, or something I'm overlooking.
<!-- | Load the pom & classpath +--> <artifact:pom file="@{project-path}/pom.xml" id="@{project-name}.pom" settingsFile="${maven.settings}" inheritAllProperties="false" /> <artifact:dependencies pathid="@{project-name}.classpath" settingsFile="${maven.settings}"> <artifact:pom refid="@{project-name}.pom" settingsFile="${maven.settings}" inheritAllProperties="false" /> </artifact:dependencies>
Thanks so much

I think we need some more information to go on. Exactly how do you run the application? Do you invoke a Maven command, and Ant command, or run a batch file? Whichever one you do, could you post the relevant portions of the file for running the application? (The last file excerpt you posted doesn't mane anything to me, I've never seen anything like that in either Ant or Maven build scripts - where did it come from?)
Also, you mentioned that the runtime JARs are placed in a lib directory. If the JDBC driver JAR file in that directory? Does the JAR file name contain a version number? Is the presence or absence of the version number consistent with the other JAR files in the lib directory? (For my apps, I have the Maven Assembly Plugin place the versioned JAR files in a lib directory and have the Maven Dependency Plugin generate a classpath which I insert into a .bat file that runs the app. So I am trying to find out how close what you have is to what I have.)
Finally, you mention that this is an open source project. Providing a link to the project might also help. Either we could look at the project, or someone might have already worked with that project and would know the answer.

We received word today from colleagues at www.SwapSet.com of their new
SlideCard Pro and SwapTool Pro for both the PS2 and PSTwo consoles respectively. The SlideCard Pro is quite innovative compared to other Slide Cards available as it comes with a slotted replacement PS2 front drive tray panel. Simply insert the SlideCard Pro into the slot, and slide it to swap your original Imports and LEGAL PS2 game back-up discs. The SwapTool Pro surpasses others on the market as it only contains 2 pieces (versus 3) to install, snap-locks in, does NOT interfere with closing the PSTwo lid, and does NOT require you to break-away any parts on the PSTwo console as others have in the past. Finally, they are seeking distributers now for both innovative products made from unbreakable plastic so feel free to contact them if you are a wholesaler.

about me
OK...ugly and obnoxious, I know, but wait coz I come with a 30 day money back guarantee AND a free set of steak knives!
OK really what you see is what you get.... I realize that isn't doing me any favors but hey that's just what my parole officer says ! ;)....I just love to kick back with wonderful friends and enjoy lovely food ( yes I cook and really enjoy it too ) and a glass of good wine ( only the best cask stuff mind! :)) dining alfresco, outdoors in the sun (if its there), and enjoy lively conversation balanced between serious thought provoking topics to giggles and silliness....It would be so nice to spend that time with someone who really has that spark together with me...Ive been single for some time now and although enjoyed this new period or stage and been busy with a new home and new business, I have time now to spend with someone beautiful. Its the only thing missing in my otherwise idyllic life. I believe in love and being with ones real special partner and treasuring something very special between us. Making and building fabulous memories together.. escaping from the remand center..Ops, I mean to romantic weekends away sitting all night in a cottage by an open fire with lovely wine, food & music...cuddles, kisses ... and just us two talking, laughing and loving till the sun comes up. Hope its you! :) ? As long as you're OK with a bit of a dry sense of humour, a little wicked, maybe ...but not cruel. I think , without bragging, that my best attributes are, absolute loyalty, I'm very caring and loving, especially to those I love. I have great communication skills and a creative mind, I have a generous heart and not scared to express my feelings. Thanks for reading to the end!:), I cant wait to meet you.

I do not think it common for your gums to turn purple and peel. It has been more then 72 hours and I have seen no change. Of course she did explain to me what the procedure consisted of, she just left out a major detail, burning my gums. READ COMMENT

How A Flight Attendant Flies 10,000 Miles Per Week Without Jet Lag & Sleeps Like A Baby Using 8 Simple Techniques
Hi my name is Chris and I fly 10,000 miles a week on average for the biggest UK airline. I can be in Miami one week Delhi the next and Johannesburg the week after. Flying this much is very hectic. I spend about half the year out of the country but I do enjoy my job. Before I discovered the secrets to Jet Lag I too experienced nasty jet lag symptoms like –
Sleepless nights – Exhaustion – High Cortisol Induced Stress – Listlessness – Disorientation – Insomnia – Mood Swings – Fatigue – Dehydration.
I tried the available "cures" and discovered they were at best okay for occasional fliers but useless for frequent fliers like me, flying week in week out. My health was deteriorating my business suffered and I was losing out on life with family and friends. It was a losing battle and I was for ever playing catch up. Does this sound like you?
Something had to change. I searched everywhere for answers and it wasn't until I realised no one catered for healthy frequent fliers that the answer came to me. I had to get a solution and it had to be a healthy one I could use long term.

SANTA CLARA — The 49ers clinched a playoff berth with their impressive victory over the New England Patriots. In the process, they laid claim to being the team to beat in the quest for the Super Bowl.
The Sunday night matchup amounted to a Super Bowl preview in some circles. Jim Harbaugh conceded that the game carried added significance.
"It was obvious both teams desperately wanted to win the game," the 49ers coach said Monday. "It felt like both teams wanted to prove they were the better team."
As evidence, Harbaugh pointed out the hard hitting that started from the outset and lasted until the 49ers prevailed 41-34.
"Both teams really wanted it, to show that they were the better team," Harbaugh said. "It was a great game. It was an exciting game. Very competitive."
The 49ers gained a little breathing room in the battle for the NFC West title, with the Seattle Seahawks standing 1? games behind with two to play.
There also is the matter of securing one of the top two seeds in the NFC playoffs — and the first-round bye and home-field advantage that comes with that distinction. For now, the 49ers sit as the No.2 seed.
To that end, Harbaugh and his staff spent a chunk of their time on the plane ride back to the Bay Area breaking down tape and preparing for this Sunday night's game against the Seahawks.
What Harbaugh sees when watching tape is a team that has the resolve to withstand a 28-point flurry by the Patriots and persevere in the most trying circumstances.
"The pressure to perform is great in this league, at this level," Harbaugh said. "I credit that to we have excellent players who are kind of in the prime of their career. They're at the experienced height, but they're young, and they've been in those situations. They're young, experienced and kind of right in their prime."

another MSDS listing inhaling the sulfurous acid fumes/gas which reads:
" Inhalation: Mists and vapors cause irritation of respiratory tract. "
which is what I had. The diarrhoea symptom documented in the XTOL MSDS I referenced was most likely attributed (in my conclusion) to inhaling the sodium sulphite powder. If it was an allergic reaction yes I agree I should have had anaphylaxis type symptoms which I didn't and would instead suggest I just could have been sensitive to the sulphite rather than allergic to it. Or (less likely) that it was something I ate. Only a repeat experiment will tell and I'm not volunteering for that any time soon !

Kwembe Group
This will be Prisca's first loan from Tujijenge Tanzania. She wants a loan to buy ingredients for her business. She sells her products on order -- her customers ring and make orders and they either collect them or she delivers to them herself. Her dream is to one day have a factory where she can be able to make a big amount of stock and make it easy for customers to come in and out instead of her going door-to-door.
Prisca will share this loan with her loan group, Kwembe, which has a total of 24 new members. The members of the group will hold each other accountable in paying back their loans.
In the picture, Prisca is first on the left, sitting on a chair.
Additional Information
About Tujijenge TanzaniaThis loan is administered by Tujijenge Tanzania, which was founded in 2006. It has operations in Dar es Salaam, the coastal region, and the Lake Victoria region. The organization aims to reach out to micro entrepreneurs and provide them with financial and social intermediation services because capital is one of the major barriers to development and success for micro-enterprise initiatives in Tanzania.
For more information on Tujijenge Tanzania, please visit its partner page, or join its lending team.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

It's couture week in Paris, and among all the pretty things designers have to offer are expensive jewelry to match those equally expensive gowns. Several notable fashion houses gave sneak peaks at treasures they will be showcasing at Biennale des Antiquaires September 14 to 23 at the Grand Palais in Paris. Women with disposable income will be clamoring for to zhush up their gala gowns come charity ball season – let's not forget awards season as well.
Christian Dior's jewels paid homage to the fifties, Van Cleef & Arpels gave us good luck symbols and animals like a turquoise frog perched on a leaf on a pair of Art Deco drop earrings in onyx, tourmalines, garnets and diamonds. Speaking of diamonds, Piaget launched a rose jewelry collection with striking gem stone accents, like a pair of white gold drop earrings with diamonds, blue sapphires, and white chalcedony.
Laurenz Baumer took it back to nature with an interwoven white gold bracelet inspired by a Japanese garden. It featured pink opal bulrushes, peridot lily pads and a pink sapphire and amethyst water lily. Boucheron also drew inspiration from nature creating a snake necklace curled in the shape of a question mark. My favorite was the Bouquet d'Ailes (Wing Bouquet) necklace, made with three types of gold, Colombian emeralds, carved morganites and tourmalines set in feather, butterfly and dragonfly wing motifs.
Ten jewelers will participate in the Biennale des Antiquaires this fall, including: Boucheron, Bulgari, Cartier, Chanel Joaillerie, Chaumet, Dior Joaillerie, Harry Winston, Piaget, Van Cleef & Arpels and Wallace Chan.
