Vanessa Minnillo Shares Valentine's Day Love Letter to Baby Camden
Valentine's Day isn't just for lovers! As new mom Vanessa Lachey (nee Minnillo) proves, it's a time to celebrate all kinds of affection and appreciation.
PHOTOS: Vanessa's hot maternity style
Lachey's special someone is baby Camden John, 5 months, her son with husband Nick Lachey. In a special Valentine's Day post on her new website, the Wipeout host, 32, declares her love for the little boy via a letter from her personal journal.
"When I got married, I started a journal for mine and Nick's kids to read as they got older," she explains in her blog. "I wrote about how Nick proposed, our wedding, our first home as a family, our adventures together, and how we are as people and as a couple..."
PHOTOS: Nick and Vanessa's most romantic moments
"Once I got pregnant, I started writing letters to our unborn baby. I would tell him how loved he is, and how excited I am to share EVERYTHING in the world with him," she continues. "Then, once he was born, the letters grew into telling him how grateful we are to have him in our lives...I know he won't understand it now, but that's the beauty of a journal! It's a book we will have forever as a family."
The post includes a snapshot of the journal in question, with a handwritten letter to her son, dated Feb. 14, 2013. "Cam," she writes. "This Valentine's Day you'll only be 5 months old, but I feel like I've loved you forever. I have wanted to be your mommy for as long as I can remember. Nothing in this world could ever compare to the way you make me and your daddy feel everyday!"
"Words don't even begin to express how much more beautiful you make our life together," she adds. "As you grow and take in this world around you, know that you are loved today and everyday all because you're you! Sweet Precious Little YOU. Happy First Valentine's Day!"

About the Fund
Fund Management | Steering Committee | Financial Overview
The Fund for Gender Equality is a grant-making mechanism within UN Women. Launched through a visionary contribution of US$ 65 million by the Government of Spain in 2009, the Fund has now consolidated itself as a multi-donor mechanism, with an increasing number and diversity of contributors from Governments, the private sector and individual donors. Today, the Fund constitutes one of the world's largest grant-making funds advancing the cause of gender equality and women's empowerment globally.
The Fund for Gender Equality works like a fast-track mechanism within UN Women for delivering resources directly to civil society and government partners. It is an innovative, responsive tool capable of combating the structural inequalities that underpin gender inequality, while enabling and amplifying women's voice and agency.
The Fund is committed to supporting innovative and high-impact programmes that yield concrete results in the lives of women, especially those who are marginalized (including rural women, young women, domestic workers and indigenous women), their families and communities.
In the last five years, the Fund for Gender Equality has successfully awarded USD $56.5 million to 96 grantee programmes in 72 countries. To date, such programmes have reached 9.4 million women, girls and boys as direct beneficiaries.
Fund Management
The Fund for Gender Equality is managed by a Secretariat at UN Women headquarters in New York with the support of four regional specialists deployed across UN Women offices for Africa, Arab States, Asia and the Pacific and Latin America and the Caribbean. The Secretariat is guided by a Steering Committee composed of a rotating group of representatives from donor and programme countries, civil society organizations and multilateral agencies. The Steering Committee advises on the Fund's overall design, policies and vision and ratifies the grant awards.

The president's account — (at)BarackObama — is run by his 2012 campaign. The campaign says the president will personally send the occasional tweet, with those messages marked "-BO" to signify that they're coming directly from the president.
Obama used the town hall as an opportunity to deliver a remarkably critical line about Republicans who are fighting with him over raising the nation's borrowing limit. Obama said GOP lawmakers should not use their votes on that matter as "a gun against the heads of the American people" to retain the tax breaks they want for corporate jet owners and oil companies.
Obama fielded questions on college costs, immigration, collective bargaining rights, the debt limit, manufacturing jobs, the housing crisis and many other topics as Twitter users sent queries in by the tens of thousands.
A handful of journalists from newspapers around the country were asked by Twitter to join the event as "curators," a role that entailed trying to generate questions on the economy from Twitter users and helping the company to identify trends in the inquiries.
The White House used its official Twitter account, (at)WhiteHouse, to boil Obama's answers down to 140 characters or less. Twitter was also retweeting the condensed answers.
For example, when Obama was asked about protecting collective bargaining rights, his answer ran more than 2,600 spoken characters. The White House summarized him in two consecutive Tweets: "Collective bargaining responsible for so many benefits/protections we take for granted on the job ... All of us will have to make adjustments for 21st century, but principle of collective bargaining must be protected".
Tweeters responded en masse with ideas for how to reduce the nation's deficit: cut defense contracting, trim the war on drugs, stop giving money to Pakistan, raise taxes, cut oil subsidies.
As to that first question on mistakes made, Obama allowed that his administration had underestimated the severity of the recession, and so he did not prepare the American people "for how long this was going to take" and the tough choices that lay ahead. Obama also said the problems in the housing market were more stubborn than expected, and he'd had to revamp his assistance programs several times.
The town hall also marked the first White House "Tweetup" — that's an in-person gathering of people who are connected through Twitter. The White House invited about 30 people who follow the administration's official Twitter account to come to Washington to take part in Wednesday's event.

Vitesse Expands Signal Integrity Portfolio for Ultra High-Speed Broadband Network Applications Industry's First 16G Retimer Device Lowers BOM Costs, Streamlines Data Center Switch and Router Designs Business Wire CAMARILLO, Calif. -- March 13, 2013 Vitesse Semiconductor Corporation (Nasdaq: VTSS), a leading provider of advanced IC solutions for Carrier and Enterprise networks, introduced the VSC7223 signal conditioner, the latest member of its low power, multi-protocol, adaptive EQNOX™ family of signal conditioners with FlexEQ™ technology. With data rate support up to 16 Gbps, the four-channel VSC7223 is ideal for use in high-speed, high-bandwidth network equipment, such as data centers or long-haul network transport equipment. The VSC7223 delivers ultimate design flexibility with its support for protocols including 16G Fibre Channel (FCIA, FC-PI-5), 14G FDR (Infiniband, Vol 2, Release 1.3) and 10G/40G/100G Ethernet (IEEE802.3). "Vitesse's EQNOX family has served as an excellent solution for us in several recent projects," said Ramesh Sundaram, vice president of manufacturing services at Finisar. "Together with Vitesse's excellent technical support, this low power, high performance family of signal conditioners has allowed us to overcome signal integrity challenges and successfully meet our aggressive requirements." Cisco's Visual Networking Index (VNI) forecasts annual global IP traffic at 1.3 zettabytes, or one trillion gigabytes, by 2016. Contributing factors include an increased number of mobile devices and M2M connections, a larger user base, video as a greater percentage of overall internet traffic, and faster broadband speeds. Recent surveys also highlight network bandwidth demand as one of the most critical issues facing data centers. As a result of the higher data transmission speeds, signal integrity continues to be a critical aspect in carrier and enterprise networks worldwide. "Ultra high-speed connectivity will become a de facto requirement, driven by business and consumer demand for video, high-speed data and cloud-based services," said Gary Paules, product marketing manager at Vitesse. "Vitesse is committed to continuing its signal integrity innovations and enabling our customers to deliver high-performance solutions for next-generation networks."

There's been a lot said about Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) in schools, and plenty of commentary on blogs and the Twittersphere. It's a fast-moving subject, almost like 'building airplanes in the sky' – it sometimes feels like BYOD strategies and vision are being created as we go along.
And the debate has been joined by two pedagogical leaders who have produced a Microsoft BYOD whitepaper for schools. Bruce Dixon (from the Anytime, Anywhere Learning Foundation) and Sean Tierney (from the worldwide Microsoft Partners in Learning programme) have both been passionate advocates for 1:1 learning programmes for many years, and have just published their first 'Bring Your Own Device for schools' whitepaper. The aim is to examine the potential deployment models from teaching, learning and IT management perspectives.
As their introduction says:
The ongoing debate regarding the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) model in schools warrants deeper analysis to help educators and institutions understand this provisioning model and its potential benefits and pitfalls for learning. This discussion paper sets out to investigate the myths and understand which questions should be addressed when considering allowing students to bring their own devices, and which option might be best suited to a school or system's culture. It is intended to stimulate discussion around what constitutes best practice 1-to-1 learning.
As well as plenty of detailed analysis and debate within the white paper, there's also a handy table that helps to describe the different capabilities of the various devices that are available for a BYOD scenario:
It's a great way to classify the differing capabilities across a range of current and future devices.
I think that one of the best aspects of the white paper is that it talks about the alternative models – presenting five potential models, and discussed the benefits and considerations of each. It also goes into five key questions to ask to help you decide whether a BYOD model is right for your school. And then talks through consideration for planning and implementation procedures.
The conclusion section starts:
BYOD is a trend that needs to be carefully examined in an education context to ensure that the models we deploy are successful. At the heart of good 1-to-1 learning is equity to ensure that all students have equal access to technology-rich experiences, and simplicity to ensure that it is easy to manage and sustain.
and finishes with an absolutely key point:
Schools need to be vigilant and protective of the foundations of equity of access on which all of our education systems are firmly founded. With this in mind, all stakeholders – teachers, parents, students and principals – need to work through the tough decisions early to drive home the best outcomes for all students at all times.
You can either download the BYOD for schools whitepaper, or if you're in Australia, drop Richard Ryan an email and he'll pop a couple of printed copies in the post
For more info on Bring Your Own Device, here's a link to related BYOD articles
For more info on Bring Your Own Device, here's a link to related BYOD articles
A bit embarrassing that 'note taking with digital pens' would be classified as 'advanced pedagogical potential'. Maybe someone should introduce the authors to Blooms Taxonomy...
If the diagram is indicative of the content of the whitepaper then I think you need to make it clear that it reflects your thinking on devices, not a true pedagogical taxonomy.
For example, iPad apps are extremely versatile, can be used with stylii, can be used for programming, can be used for video creation/editing (a particular strength, in fact), does recognize Chinese characters hand drawn, does have speech input and so on and so on.
Perhaps when the Surface tablet is released, this diagram will change?
As Richard Jones mention the diagram is clearly inaccurate and the bias is to push a full MS Laptop designed program. I advise replacing this content with an honest comparison or else it should be removed.

Thanks John.
The topic for the March/ April MSA is "On the Road".
Interpret it however you wish, but the photograph has to feature a road/ highway/track.
So, for example, any building by the road, transport using the road, landscape featuring a road or people next to or on the road etc. - just so long as the road is included.
For any new readers, here's the basic idea of the MSA :
1. Read the MSA assignment
2. Take your photo according to the assignment guidelines
3. You can post your photo in the MSA Gallery : Click Here or,
4. You can host your photo elsewhere and link to it in this thread or,
5. You can post it right in the message here and it will show as a clickable thumbnail.
6. It's all for fun, there are no prizes, but at the end of the MSA, the current host and judge will choose a "Victim" to lead an MSA in a couple of months time.
7. If you have any questions, please email or PM and I'll be happy to help.
thanks all, enjoy and looking forward to seeing some great "Road" pictures.

Ahead Of Rumored Apple TV Refresh, Roku Updates Streaming Media Player Lineup And Launches Roku 3 In The UK
Streaming media hardware company Roku, which is holding it own in a market that includes tech industry heavyweights including Apple and Google, has just introduced new models of its streaming players. The small set-top boxes include redesigned versions of the Roku LT, Roku 1 and Roku 2, bringing some features from the Roku 3 flagship player to the company's more conservatively priced offerings.
Each new Roku gets a hardware design refresh, with bubble-style rounded sides instead of the straight lines and hard edges of the older versions. The designs are a bit more whimsical, and an improvement over the previous, somewhat Apple TV-like puck style design. The lineup gives access to Roku's Channel Store for expandable content options. Third-party channels available for Roku number over 1,000 in the U.S., but cap out at just over 450 in the UK, Canada and Ireland.
The entry-level LT is pretty much the same as its predecessor in a brand new shell, but the Roku 1 gets a considerable upgrade with support for 1080p video (the old one supported just 720p), while the Roku 2 adds a new headphone jack and dual-band Wi-Fi capabilities, which previously were features exclusive to the Roku 3. Roku tells TechCrunch that 40 percent of its customers said the headphone jack was the reason they opted for the Roku 3, so this should bump up sales of the lower cost unit. The LT retails for $49.99, while the Roku 1 is $59.99 and the Roku 2 is $79.99.
Roku's SVP of Product Management Jim Funk says that it's adding new channels at a rate of about one to two a day, and that it's seeing 13 hours of streaming per week on average. The company is also working to bring Netflix's DIAL AirPlay-type service to Roku's platform, which will allow users to stream content from their phone to the players directly. That integration will come sometime in the next few months, according to Funk.
Roku has also added support for M-Go in the U.S. starting today, which brings that transactional video-on-demand company's catalog of curated content to the streaming platform. M-Go is a joint venture between DreamWorks Animation and Technicolor, and offers access to 16,000 movies and TV shows, with 20,000 anticipated in its library by year's end. The M-Go partnership arrangement is a revenue sharing opportunity for Roku, Funk explained, and it puts the service right in Roku's centralized "TV Shows" and "Movies" tabs, giving them an advantage by taking them out of the general fracas of the 1,000-strong channel guide.
All the new Roku devices are available in the U.S. for pre-order, with expected shipping in October, and the new LT is a U.S.-exclusive for now. In Canada, the UK and Ireland, the Roku 1 and 2 are available for pre-order with shipping anticipated in October, and the previously released Roku 3 makes its way to those territories with immediate availability from Roku's website. The hardware revamp comes ahead of speculation that Apple will update its own Apple TV streaming media device sometime soon, possibly alongside new iPads, so we could see a lot of competition for holiday dollars in this space.
T-Mobile Moto X gets updated with significant camera enhancements
In our review of the Moto X, we determined that while its ClearPixel camera was decent, its performance was hit or miss. Fortunately, Motorola has taken a lot of feedback and has cranked out a software update with improvements to the camera's performance, specifically in the areas of exposure, color accuracy and focus speed. The refresh, which is so far getting pushed out to T-Mobile phones — we expect it to roll out to other carriers as soon as each one is done testing the new firmware, though nothing is currently confirmed — appears to make a rather substantial difference in several scenarios, such as reducing noise in low-light and eliminating haze in outdoor shots. Anandtech's Brian Klug had the opportunity to take the updated shooter for a test run and declared it to be "nothing short of the biggest [improvement] I've ever seen come across in an OTA update."
In addition to the camera improvements, Motorola also threw in a few other enhancements as well. Users who have downloaded the update should expect increased Touchless Control accuracy, a fix for the choppy audio issue some have experienced in voice calls and an improvement to Moto Assist as well.

Gmail updated on iOS to support new inbox, more notification options
Desktop? Check. Android? Check. iOS? Check that one off too. The refreshed Gmail design is now officially available on the App Store for both iPad and iPhone. The update not only brings the new category-based, multiple-tab inbox — bringing it in line with Google's new interface on other platforms — but throws in the ability to set notification options for individual accounts. According to the change log, you'll now get "notified for all messages, only important messages, or none at all, on a per account basis." You'll also be able to view YouTube videos and Google Maps links through the appropriate app, rather than the browser. Lastly, you can turn off the multiple tab interface if you're not a fan, but unfortunately Google has restricted the new notification options so they'll only work with the new inbox. Just as we noticed with Android, we wouldn't be surprised if it's not available to everyone yet — it likely is undergoing a similar rollout effort. Either way, it doesn't hurt to click the source link to see if you can grab the update sooner rather than later.

Android 4.0 officially rolls out to HTC Thunderbolt
Hades hath frozen over, folks: after nearly two years on the market, Verizon's very first LTE-capable smartphone, the HTC Thunderbolt, has made the upgrade to Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0.4) with Sense 3.6 in tow. The update, which was first discovered a few days ago, is finally rolling out in phases beginning today. Of course, this also means that many owners may not experience the joys of ICS for yet a few days (or weeks) to come, but it's at least now officially rocking handsets across the nation. Just in time for many of those users to look into renewing their contracts. Better late than never, we suppose.

Detailed review
This is the best Blackberry 10 phone yet. Finally, a large screen from Blackberry is refreshing. The hardware truly matches the best in the industry. Software is the least user friendly OS in the market. You will have to be a diehard Blackberry lover not to switch.
good review!

I suggest that you try the update to 10.2.1 now... Should address all you concerns other than Size + Weight... which is very comparable to other 5+ inch display phones with a battery the size this thing packs.

First, the man who brought you such films as Audition and The Dead or Alive Trilogy brings you one of the most brutal movies I've ever come out of Asian cinema, Ichi the Killer (review). The film follows a masochist being searching down by a sadist so he can have some serious pain inflicted on him! Second, is one of the most insane flicks I've seen, and it's something I guarantee you won't ever see made in the US. The film is called Suicide Club (aka Suicide Circle), where groups of kids have been committing suicide together, is there a connection? Watch and find out. Both films can be purchased online at numerous locations, from HKlix.com to Poker Industries to even Amazon, if you're lucky, Best Buy might even carry a copy or two like they did with Versus.

Tigre Delta Day Trip from Buenos Aires
Read what other Viator.com travelers think about the Tigre Delta Day Trip from Buenos Aires. What they loved, what they liked and what they think could be improved, it's all here to help you make the most of your next trip.
Click here for tour details, schedule and pricing
very good except they pick up a bit late.
Very good!
Great time on the catamaran, I didn't care about our first stop at cathedral/ train station- it was not interesting. Like to have seen more San Isidro areas instead. Overall, great day on the boat.
good but not fantastic tour. Guide was good/informative, and we were lucky enough that English was the only language used for the tour. Worthwhile half day excursion!
This was a nice trip if you want to visit somewhere outside of Buenos Aires. The boat ride itself was ok-- not too much to see on the way, to be honest. Once you get to Tigre, you have a Tigre city tour which isn't all that interesting. I think the best part of trip is when you have your "alone" time to just walk around. I would recommend the "fruit dock" section and try eating at "La Ranchera" -- they have great steaks there and they accept credit cards.
Interesting,well organizated
The boat ride was great. There was not much time was we arrived at the destination. We had originally been told we would have time to see 3 museums and we only had 30 minutes for 1 museum. Also, if you are unable to walk more than 30+ blocks, this is not recommended.

We took a full day tour and it was worthwhile. The boat ride was very pleasant and interesting. Tigre city was our final destination and it was a lovely place. We visited Mate museum where we saw many unique handmade mate cups.
This tour was amazing!
Nice day excursion from BA. Walter was a very knowledgeable guide. I recommend it.
Excellent half-day tour. Guide was informative and spoke very good English. We were pleased we took this tour and would recommend it to anyone wanting to see more than just the city area of Buenos Aires.
Only downside was that we couldn't be picked-up from our Recoleta hotel so had to take a taxi to the downtown office. On our return we were able to be dropped-off about fifteen minutes walk from our hotel.
Punctual hotel pick-up. Very good guide - easy to understand and very informative. Great cruise up the river.
Excellent trip down the River Plate (what a river) and once at the Tigre delta through a particularly beautiful part of Buenos Aires. Only slight gripe was that there was no Hotel pick-up meaning that you have to find your way to the jetty to pickup the boat (this proved a bit difficult as the taxi driver got lost, but all OK in the end as we took a map and could thus give him directions !!!).
Great day out, thank you. Our guide was happy, friendly and very helpful. Enjoy the whole day including the heavy rain, would recommend to everyone.
We were collected from our hotel in the centre of the city for what proved to be a leisurely and pleasant afternoon. Friendly guide. Interesting to see homes on the waterfront in the Delta - not at all what we expected!
Very nice visit to San Isidro and Tigre. The travel to Tigre should have included a drive thru the embassy area and San Martin's home. Wouldn't have been that much out of the way. It would be an added bonus.
A wonderful trip through the delta, lots of scenes of homes, docks, everyday life.
Very pleasant afternoon tour. It was very relaxing given that we had flown in that morning after a 10-hour flight. It was eye-opening watching the life-styles of the people who live just outside the city. I just wish the English-speaking guide had spent more time speaking in English.
Good tour. Great guide. Much appreciated to have gone to a suggested local restaurant than the typical tourist ones.
Highly recommend this tour, saw more of the Delta than we thought. A truly lovely day out and seeing BsAs from the water was particularly special. The only negative was that the 'English speaking guide' is a misnomer. While our 'guide' was pleasant she spoke very little English and the only reason we could figure out she was there was to tell us where to pick up the bus or boat for the return trip otherwise there really was no requirement for her services. She didn't explain anything about anything you were seeing and didn't need to because that was all taken care of by the Sturla Boat Tour and hop on hop off bus tour. Actually, you can't really hop on and hop off the bus in Tigre as you are on a time related schedule for the return trip. Nevertheless, all that said it was a great way to see Tigre and the Delta for not too hefty a price.
We enjoyed the boat trip to and from Tigre. Our guide had good English and was attentive to our needs. The bus trip around the city was disappointing, it was a regular bus, filled to capacity, little chance to even see some of the points of interest or take a picture. Possibly a better explanation of what to expect on the bus tour or the assurance of one of the open tour buses be available for the tour is needed.
Excellent tour.
I was lucky enough to have a very knowledgeable tour guide all to myself and the trip was very interesting. Tigre and the delta are beautiful and worth a trip, it's a welcome change from the hustle and bustle of Buenos Aires.
Very good tour. We went by public transport which gave us an idea how the locals do it. The tour was very comprehensive, including some sights in Buenos Aires before we got the local train to San Isidro. After a tour of town we got the tourist train to Delta. We visited the markets and boat harbours before embarking on our boat trip around the delta and then back to Puerto Madero in Buenos Aires. The guide was absolutely brilliant. Best guide in over 4 weeks of travelling. Her name was Elaeana (I think that is how you spell it). Strongly recommend.
Good short trip outside Buenos Aires.

"Google is not just a company, it is an entirely new way of thinking about understanding who we are and what we want. Jarvis has done something really important: extend that approach to business and culture, revealing just how revolutionary it is." (Chris Anderson, Author of The Long TailChris Anderson, author of The Long Tail)
"What Would Google Do? is an exceptional book that captures the massive changes the internet is effecting in our culture, in marketing, and in advertising." (Craig Newmark, Founder of craigslist)
"Jeff Jarvis has written an indispensable guide to the business logic of the networked era, because he sees the opportunities in giving the people control, and understands the risks in letting your competitors get there first." (Clay Shirky, Author of Here Comes Everybody)
"Jeff Jarvis's What Would Google Do? is a divining rod for anyone looking for ways to hit real paydirt in the new territory of Web 2.0 marketing. Jarvis has a sharp eye for what is relevant, real, and actionable. Isn't that what we all need today?" (Marc Benioff, Chairman and CEO, salesforce.com)
"Most of Jarvis's pointsabout customer influence, user-driven innovation, the death of middlemenare by now axiomatic. And yet he manages to make the revolution feel newly revolutionary. . . . the book exudes credibility." (Inc.)
"[Jarvis's] bold thinking and prodigious faith results in a rollicking sermon on reinvention and reinvigoration." (Miami Herald)
"[Jarvis] is an intelligent observer of technology and the media and has intellectual scruples.... [T]here are lessons to be learnt from Google and its single-minded determination to change how business is done." (Financial Times)
"Jarvis, proprietor of the influential media blog BuzzMachine, gleans maxims from Google's successful strategies that occasionally sound like doublespeak (Free is a business model! Abundance is the new scarcity! Correcting yourself enhances credibility!). But they boil down to practical suggestions." (Time magazine)

A bold and vital book that asks and answers the most urgent question of today: What Would Google Do?
In a book that's one part prophecy, one part thought experiment, one part manifesto, and one part survival manual, internet impresario and blogging pioneer Jeff Jarvis reverse-engineers Google—the fastest-growing company in history—to discover forty clear and straightforward rules to manage and live by. At the same time, he illuminates the new worldview of the internet generation: how it challenges and destroys, but also opens up vast new opportunities. His findings are counterintuitive, imaginative, practical, and above all visionary, giving readers a glimpse of how everyone and everything—from corporations to governments, nations to individuals—must evolve in the Google era.
Along the way, he looks under the hood of a car designed by its drivers, ponders a worldwide university where the students design their curriculum, envisions an airline fueled by a social network, imagines the open-source restaurant, and examines a series of industries and institutions that will soon benefit from this book's central question.
The result is an astonishing, mind-opening book that, in the end, is not about Google. It's about you.See all Product Description

Shaun Michal Marcum (born December 14, 1981) is an American professional baseball pitcher who is currently a free agent. He played in MLB for the Toronto Blue Jays, Milwaukee Brewers, and New York Mets.
Early life[edit]
Marcum was born in Kansas City, Missouri and raised in Excelsior Springs, Missouri, where he attended Excelsior Springs High School. Athletically, besides baseball, Shaun was a 2x State Champion in wrestling and a standout football player. Marcum initially attended the University of Missouri, but transferred to Missouri State University, playing on the 2003 College World Series team as a pitcher and shortstop.
Professional career[edit]
Toronto Blue Jays[edit]
Marcum was drafted by the Blue Jays in the third round, 80th overall, of the 2003 Major League Baseball Draft. Marcum quickly rose through the minor leagues and made his major league debut on September 6, 2005 as a late season call-up from the minors in September when rosters expanded. He made his debut against the Baltimore Orioles pitching one scoreless inning, giving up a hit and one walk and one strikeout. Marcum pitched 8 innings, giving up six hits, without surrendering a run during the month of September.
Marcum went 3–4 for the Blue Jays in 2006 in 21 games, including 14 starts, with an ERA of 5.06. In his final seven starts, he had a record of 2–1 with a 3.31 ERA.
Marcum had a breakthrough season in 2007. He went 12–6 with an ERA of 4.13. He struck out a total of 122 batters over 159 innings of work. He pitched 6+ scoreless innings in seven of his starts, including two instances where he pitched 6+ no-hit innings before being relieved. One of those instances was against the Boston Red Sox.
In 2008, Marcum got off to a good start, going 5–4 with a 2.65 ERA and 86 strikeouts in 98.2 Innings. But an injury followed by a handful of weak starts sent him to Triple-A on August 23. In September he was back in the starting rotation and he seemed to have returned to form. However on September 19, days after an abbreviated start in which he left with elbow pain, the Jays released the information that Marcum would need Tommy John surgery and would miss the rest of the 2008 season and likely all of 2009.
As of May 1, 2009, Marcum had started to throw again. Marcum made two starts with A-Class Dunedin in early July, pitching successfully on his rehab assignment, he then started twice with the Double-A New Hampshire Fisher Cats, and once more with Triple-A Las Vegas 51s before being shut down for the season to prevent him from injury again.[1]
On March 22 Marcum was named the opening day starter for the 2010 season,[2] succeeding Roy Halladay for that role, who had seven consecutive opening day starts for the team from 2003 to 2009. On May 2, Marcum got his first win against the Oakland Athletics, it was his first win since September 11, 2008 before going through Tommy John surgery. On August 4, 2010, Marcum gave up Alex Rodriguez's 600th career home run. Marcum ended the season with a 13–8 win–loss record and a 3.64 ERA.
Milwaukee Brewers[edit]
On December 6, at the 2010 MLB Winter Meetings, Marcum was traded to the Milwaukee Brewers in exchange for infield prospect Brett Lawrie.[3]
On July 4, 2011, Marcum hit his first Major League home run, a grand slam off Daniel Hudson of the Arizona Diamondbacks. Despite the home run, the Diamondbacks won the game 8–6.
In the 2011 NLDS against Arizona, Marcum gave up a grand slam to Paul Goldschmidt, which sealed a win for the Diamondbacks. However, the Brewers won the series in 5 games.
In 2011, he was 13-7, with a 3.54 ERA.[4]
Due to injury, Marcum's 2012 season was cut short to just 21 starts. He went 7-4 with a 3.70 ERA for the Brewers. After the season, he elected to become a free agent.[5]
New York Mets[edit]
On January 30, 2013, Marcum signed a one-year contract worth $4 million with the New York Mets.[6] Through his first 11 games (9 of which were starts) for the Mets, Marcum posted a dismal 0–9 record with a 5.76 earned run average. Marcum recorded his first win as a Met in a game against the Chicago White Sox on June 26, 2013. Marcum pitched 8 innings and yielded only 4 hits and 2 walks while striking out 2. Marcum underwent surgery on his pitching shoulder on July 15, 2013, and was ruled out for the rest of the season.[7] Marcum was waived/injured by the Mets on July 23, 2013.[8]
Cleveland Indians[edit]
On December 16, 2013, Marcum signed a minor league contract with the Cleveland Indians.[9] While pitching in extended spring training, on May 22, 2014, Marcum was shut down after problems with his injured shoulder occurred.[10] He pitched in just 8 games for the Triple-A Columbus Clippers.
On November 18, 2014, Marcum signed a minor league deal with the Indians.[11] He started the 2015 season on the Columbus roster, but was called up to the Indians on April 12, 2015, without having pitched for Columbus.[12] The Indians designated Marcum for assignment on April 14.[13] He was added back to the Indians' roster on May 20.[14] He was subsequently designated for assignment once more on June 18.
Scouting report[edit]
Marcum throws a broad array of pitches. He has a four-seam fastball at 86–89 mph, a two-seam fastball at 84-87, a cutter in the mid 80s, a changeup in the upper 70s, a slider in the low 80s, and a slow, looping curveball in the upper-60's to lower-70's. Marcum almost never uses his two-seamer on right-handed hitters, preferring to use his cutter and breaking pitches. Against left-handed hitters, he throws many more changeups and does not use his slider.[15]

1993 Toyota Camry
Hey all. Ok im going to do my best in describing my problem in hopes that someone out there can help me in fixing my car issue. I have a 93 v6 camry. Ok so every once in a while my car will power surge and sometimes hesitate. It doesnt happen all the time maybe like once a week but anyways it only does it when you first start to accelerate. Today my husband was messing around with it and just tapping on the gas pedal and letting up really quick and it would power surge and act up. Also every once in a while it will idle low at about 500- 600. Now other than that the car runs great. We do need a new o2 sensor so im not sure if that could be causing the power surging or not. We live on a very limited income and this is our only car so im desprate to get the problem fixed before it gets to big. Also is it a possibility that the timing belt or accessory drive belt could be doing this? The only reason I ask about those two parts is we recently took it in for an oil change and they told us we needed to get those replaced. Anyways help me !

|Subwavelength electromagnetic near-field imaging of point dipole with metamaterial nanoslab.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 19798404 Owner: NLM Status: PubMed-not-MEDLINE
|We investigate near-field imaging of a point dipole by a lossy, nanoscale metamaterial slab. Making use of the electromagnetic angular-spectrum representation, we derive the Green tensor for the field transmission through the metamaterial slab, duly considering multiple reflections, polarizations, and wave-vector signs. With this general formalism, we calculate the point-spread function of the imaging system, which enables us to assess, for instance, resolution and image brightness. Our results demonstrate that with the metamaterial-slab lens one achieves resolution beyond the conventional diffraction limit of half the wavelength. In general, the resolution and image brightness are degraded when the slab thickness and absorption increase, but we show that in some cases the resolution is rather insensitive to the magnitude of the losses in the metamaterial.

Commodities: Wait And See Pattern, Goldman's 2013 Commodities Outlook 0 comments
(click to enlarge)The commodities market has been quite so far in 2013. Like other markets, we seem to be stuck in a "wait and see" pattern.
Investors still seem to be digesting the fiscal cliff "solution" and what impact it may have on the US economy in 2013. In addition, the upcoming debt ceiling debate has many worried that politicians will once again go too far and hurt our credit rating. Even copper, which I like to use as an indicator for global demand, seems to be stuck in the same pattern (make sure to notice this year's decline in volume):
Readers will remember my past posts about using copper as an indicator:
What does copper have to do with the stock market? Copper is an amazingly conductive metal, AND a fantastic gauge of the overall health of the global economy. From September 2011′s Economist: "Copper's excellent conduction of electricity and heat means that it is used not only to cable and pipe the globe. An average car contains over 25kg of copper; electronic gadgets, from PCs to mobile phones, use copper for wiring and contacts. Its ubiquity means that rising demand should provide an early indication of an uptick in manufacturing and construction. Copper sagged in the early stages of the credit crisis, for example, and then started to pick up at the end of 2008, some months before the stock market began to rebound."
It seems to me that the continuing political debates are slowing down our already slow growth cycle. However, Goldman Sach's 2013 outlook for commodities has some interesting points. Including the macro idea that we are not at the end of the commodities super cycle, but at a break - much like the US stock market was before its late 1990's rise. It's an interesting read if you get the chance: Commodities 2013-14 Outlook (NYSE:GS) (20121205)

under the battery cover -- something not seen in the earlier teardown, and is probably the most official name to date. Spec-wise the M01M sums up what's been speculated all along -- 5-inch 800x480 touchscreen, Android 1.6, 1GHz CPU (presumably Snapdragon, as revealed by the teardown), WiFi, Bluetooth, 3G of some sort, 5 megapixel camera with dual-LED flash, front-facing camera, and the same 1530mAh battery as the one in the teardown. The price? ¥7,500, which converts to a whopping $1,098 in US cash, but bear in mind that this doesn't reflect the M01M's actual retail price for whenever it might launch.
