DALLAS (CBSDFW.COM) – The Dallas Police Department has been busy on Wednesday, as registered sex offenders show up to check in. There are 3,364 registered sex offenders living within Dallas city limits. While they report in, members of the Dallas City Council are debating a proposal to regulate exactly where those offenders can live.
There are currently no restrictions on just where in Dallas a registered sex offender is permitted to live. But the police department and city officials want that to change.
A number of other North Texas cities do have such residency restrictions in place. In those suburban cities, registered sex offenders cannot live in the areas located near public parks, schools, daycare centers or recreational centers.
Staff members are expected to begin drafting the proposed ordinance on Wednesday, writing what could become a new law that restricts where the city's registered sex offenders can call home.

Ha Gives Cubs Reason to Smile
Michael Choice and A. J. Kirby-Jones crushed back-to-back home runs to cap a five-run 5th, leading the A's Split Squad #1 to a 9-3 victory over the Cubs in AZ Instructional League action at Papago Park Baseball Complex Field #2 in Phoenix this afternoon.
Although there wasn't much to celebrate on the Cubs side of the field, CF Jae-Hoon Ha had a nice day, rapping an RBI single in the top of the 1st before stealing 2nd base and 3rd base, and then scoring on a WP on the steal of 3rd as he came all the way around to score from 2nd without slowing-down, sliding home safely in a bang-bang play at the plate. Ha later made a spectacular diving catch on a hump-backed liner in short center.
17-year old LHP Brian Smith (Cubs 2010 40th round draft pick out of Pickering, Ontario) made his pro debut today, and looked very nervous, allowing two runs in one inning of work, while having a lot of difficulty locating the strike zone (23 pitches, only nine strikes). He also hit a batter, threw a wild pitch, and committed a balk. Smith pitched for the Canadian Junior National Team in 2010.
18-year old RHP Ryan Hartman (Cubs 2010 16th round draft pick out of Mt. Zion HS - Mt. Zion, IL) had an especially poor outing today, allowing five runs on six hits (three singles, a triple, and back-to-back home runs) plus a walk and a wild pitch in his two innings of work. Although he was selected in the 16th round in last June's draft, Hartman received a $150,000 bonus (equivalent to "5th round money") when he signed with the Cubs. He appeared in eight games for the AZL Cubs in 2010, allowing 10 hits in 14.1 IP, with a 5/15 BB/K, 3.77 ERA, and a 1.05 WHIP. He was considered one of the top high school pitching prospects in Illinois coming into the 2010 season, and his curve ball was rated by scouts as the best among Illinois HS hurlers.
Here is today's abridged box score (Cubs players only):
1a. Marco Hernandez, SS: 2-3 (1B+E5, E6, 1B+E1, R)

Re: Ha Gives Cubs Reason to Smile
Re: Ha Gives Cubs Reason to Smile
Phil, can you give us your impressions of the DSL kids now at Fitch? I know it has been a small sample of play so far. Thanks.
Re: Ha Gives Cubs Reason to Smile
Phil. Always with the short and curt answers.:-)
I'm still bitter on how cheese head refs robbed ASU last week.
Re: Ha Gives Cubs Reason to Smile
from now on only whiffle ball and whiffle bats for MLB games...especially vs. the cubs.
Re: Ha Gives Cubs Reason to Smile
Hawksworth at the hospital, but never lost consciousness, fwiw.
silly ballplayer...your face is not a glove.
Re: Ha Gives Cubs Reason to Smile
Maybe he was on acid and actually thought his face was a glove. Or he tried to eat the white pill.
Re: Ha Gives Cubs Reason to Smile
"CHICAGO - Cardinals pitcher Blake Hawksworth was transported to an area hospital immediately after leaving today's fifth inning. Hawksworth was struck in the face by a line drive hit by Chicago Cubs center fielder Sam Fuld and sustained serious lacerations to his mouth and upper lip."
Re: Ha Gives Cubs Reason to Smile
Brenly withdraws from Cubs manager search. Says his reason is personal. Most likely he doesn't want to manage his son if Michael ever makes it up here. He's said before he'll quit broadcasting the Cubs if his son comes up because he doesn't want to have to criticize him.
Re: Ha Gives Cubs Reason to Smile
The wave is going on at Wrigley again. I recommend Ricketts install facial recognition software and camera's all over the park and permanently ban idiots who do the wave.
Re: Ha Gives Cubs Reason to Smile
informally observing...wrigley is attracting a lot more families these days, especially down the 1st/3rd lines. I'm seeing sooooooo many more kids.
it's not a bad thing, but based on the 10 zillion minor league games i've been to the casual fan, esp. with children, love the wave.
that "NO WAVE" sign by the geriatric crew in the OF isn't gonna have the same effect it once did...though i love it. hehe...
i don't find any of this bad, btw...it just seems the fan base is shifting a bit.
also...one thing i've noticed with this until-recently-fail-attendance...lou doesn't put butts in seats...quade doesn't put butts in seats...dlee doesn't put butts in seats...aram doesn't put butts in seats...winning puts butts in seats.
this out-of-it team got new attendance life when the wins started rolling even with a 0% chance of a playoff spot...and it's not just returning college kids looking for something to do in those seats.

Maybe it's just Werth & Ross I'm noticing. Weird.
CRAIG: Jose Albertos is not chunky like Fernando. He's built more like Dylan Cease. Exact same body type. And his delivery is free & easy. He's definitely not a "max effort" guy.
Hendricks after 50 MLB starts: 17-11, 3.45 ERA, 1.12 WHIP. Not bad for a #5 starter. He may be a 6-inning max guy, but, if he can keep those stats up, I will gladly take it.
Speaking of WHIP -- last year, he was tied for 11th in the NL. Tied with Hammel.
Last year's NL rank in WHIP: Arrietta 2nd, Lester 9th, Haren 10th, Hammel T11th, Hendricks T11th. Wow.
I went to a Nats game in DC two years ago while looking at colleges with my son -- it's a fun park, worth a visit if you are in the area.
I also saw the "slowness" thing -- particularly Werth, who would mosey out of RF about 5 seconds before the inning started.
It's Dusty's fault. It'll be the end of them.
Speaking of how teams "look", my take on the Nats- It's really weird, but the pace of the entire team seems slow. Slow walking to the plate, slow on the mound, even on some routine groundouts, it looked as if there wasn't a ton of hustle. Don't get me wrong, when the ball is hit to their outfielders, they get after the ball, I'm really referring to non-critical action- they mosey around. It's kind of odd. Maybe that "calm power" is part of the Nats ethos, idk.
My favorite moment of Hendricks' performance last night was the last strikeout he rung up- the cajones it took to throw a high, 86MPH fastball to Zimmerman on a 0-2 count. And he swung the bat like it was a 96MPH heater. I literally laughed out loud.
In listening to Maddon's post-game, he is interested in how these other teams "look" to him. He is assessing for today...and tomorrow. I love this guy.
One observation from last night: Joe Ross is incredibly slow. 20-30 seconds between pitches at times. Hendrix had a nice, peppy rhythm which is great to see.
I know there are plenty of purists here which I applaud, but the game just will not sustain itself unless change of pace rules come into play. Pitch clock, improve the shit-ass reviews, mound visits (there is a clock for this), batter time outs, etc.
Thanks, Phil. Albertos at 17, and having gotten a good signing bonus ($1.5, even though as Mexican prospect I think his team gets half of that?), throwing in the 90's and showing some command of a curveball sounds pretty interesting, even if that control is only for a dozen-pitch sample.
What kind of a frame does he have? Is he on the stocky and short-ish side (I'm recalling Fernando Valenzuela!), or somewhat taller? A lot of 17-year olds have projection, "when he fills out" projection. Would that apply at all for Albertos?
I definitely hang around here looking to reply to your comments as noticed by my nearly year long absence.
there's a fine line between posting something relevant, useful or at least humorous versus posting something irrelevant, useless or unfunny...actually it's rather quite a thick line and easy to see for most people not named crunch.
I certainly am digging the RISP machine Zobrist version.
Cubs are taking advantage of bad D by their opponents -- did it a few times in PIT and the Nats botched 2-out rundown leads to 3 Cub runs in the 8th. Which were nice to have.
I hope Kyle had fun at the dance party -- he was terrific.
i hope he's getting more consideration for the 2-slot vs lefties, too.

Shooting row: Italy says satisfied with progress
New Delhi: A day after a Kerala court extended police custody of two Italian marines accused of shooting two Indian fishermen, Indian and Italian officials held another round of talks here with Rome expressing satisfaction at the progress, setting the stage for the visit of the Italian foreign minister to New Delhi Tuesday.
"I wanted to thank the Indian authority for their hospitality and briefed them about the meeting with the (Kerala) CM (Chief Minister Oommen Chandy). I also thanked Indian lawyers who are working on the defence side. Allowing Italian forensic experts is a good sign," Italian Deputy Foreign Minister Staffan de Mistura said after the talks here Friday.
"We are very much concerned about the militaries of both the countries. Finally we are expecting the Italian Foreign Minister to come on Tuesday. We hope the incident is behind us and the relationship between the country remains the same," he added.
India`s external affairs ministry spokesperson Syed Akbaruddin said: "Italian minister expressed satisfaction on the progress in Kerala. The Italian foreign minister will arrive on Tuesday for further discussion."
The spokesperson reiterated that the law of the land will take its course in dealing with the two Italian marines, indicating that the fundamental positions of New Delhi and Rome have not changed since the Feb 15 shooting of the two fishermen by two Italian naval guards who mistook them for pirates.
Italian Foreign Minister Giulio Terzi will be in New Delhi Tuesday for talks with his Indian counterpart SM Krishna during which he is expected to push for an early resolution of the row that threatens to cast a shadow over bilateral ties.
Italy has offered to cooperate in the investigation, but said the weapons of the two arrested marines should be examined in their presence and stressed that the vessel was in international waters.
The Special Investigation Team (SIT) of Kerala police is expected to carry out, in the presence of ballistic experts from that country, a search Saturday of the Italian ship Enrica Lexie for the weapons, allegedly used by the Italian Marines in the killing of two Indian fishermen.
A court in Kollam Thursday had extended the police custody of Marines Latorre Massimillano and Salvatore Girone after police told the judge they needed more time to interrogate them. The next hearing will be Feb 28.
Italy has maintained that the firing incident took place in international waters and should be tried according to international law. New Delhi has said that since the incident involved an attack on an Indian vessel, the accused should be tried under the Indian Penal Code.

Mamata announces dole to unemployed youths, scheme for girls
Sarisha (WB): The West Bengal government would provide an allowance of Rs 1,500 per month to unemployed youths registered with the Employment Bank, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Wednesday said.
Nearly one lakh youths would benefit from the scheme which would be launched on October 3, Mamata said, addressing a rally here in South 24-Paraganas district after inaugurating several government projects.
The chief minister also announced that a special scheme for girls `Kanyasri Prakalpa` would be launched on October 1.
Mamata said that the state government would provide Rs 500 as an annual scholarship to girls belonging to families with an annual income of not more than Rs 1.20 lakh.
The girls will also be given Rs 25,000 as a one-time grant when they turn 18.
"If the girls continue their school education, vocational training, or studies in the open school system, we will transfer Rs 25,000 as a one-time grant in their bank accounts. The grant can be utilised for their marriage also. The criteria should be that they should not be married till then", she said.
The scheme would target 2.5 lakh beneficiaries this year and aims at benefiting 10,000 people by October 1.
Mamata, who began her tour of the districts yesterday with bureaucrats and ministers accompanying her to make direct contact with the people, said that she would complete ten out of 17 districts before the Durga Puja and the rest after the festival.
She also inaugurated several projects, including a shelter house for the cyclone-hit people in South 24-Paraganas district and also a hilsa research and preservation centre at Sultanpur fishing harbour in Diamond Harbour in the same district.
Explaining the purpose of her district tours, Mamata said, "Instead of people from rural Bengal coming to the Writers Buildings, we ourselves are reaching them to know their problems and review the programme of development projects meant for them."

State Funds for Energy Efficiency: Florida Schools, Kentucky Farms
Kentucky has made available $1.75 million for farm energy-efficiency or renewable energy projects.
The 2013 On-Farm Energy Efficiency & Production Incentives program, offered through the Kentucky Agricultural Development Fund (KADF), provides 50 percent reimbursement of the actual cost of a qualified energy saving or renewable energy project, up to $15,000. Permissible items include, but are not limited to, energy audits, energy efficient farm building components, on-farm energy upgrades and on-farm energy efficiency training.
In 2012, the program's $1.2 million in incentives funded projects at 140 farm families from 40 counties, according to Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear.
For 2013, the KADB's commitment of $1 million leveraged additional funds through the Kentucky Energy and Environment Cabinet to bring the total available amount $1.75 million.
The application is available online, and the deadline for the first round of 2013 applications is April 26.
In other energy-efficiency funding news, Florida lawmakers have proposed a bill, HF 320, that would establish a revolving loan program using state bonding proceeds, Patch.com reports. The money would then fund capital improvement projects that would reduce schools' GHG emissions and improve indoor air quality.
The bill would require school districts that want access to the funding to first apply for a loan, and submit a description of the proposed energy improvements and total estimated cost. Additionally, school districts would have to hire an independent contractor to conduct an energy audit to determine cost savings from the improvements.
School districts could receive up to half the total project cost from the state, according to the proposed legislation, and the commissioner of commerce would administer the loan program.

Murder on the Orient Express
1974 Directed by Sidney Lumet
The greatest cast of suspicious characters ever involved in murder.
In 1935, when his train is stopped by deep snow, detective Hercule Poirot is called on to solve a murder that occurred in his car the night before.

Decades Project: 2/7 of the 70's
"I take only such cases now as interest me, and to be frank, my interest in your case is, uh... dwindling."
Sidney Lumet returns to the fertile territory of 12 Angry Men with 12 more angry men (and women this time!) and more spatial restrictions (a train instead of a jury room). Taking a group of people and sticking them in a confined space will always be entertaining with a good director in charge because they can play the various characters off of each other (see also: Hitchcock's Lifeboat); unfortunately, instead of the reality and spontaneity of Lumet's debut, Murder on the Orient Express is more caricatured and simplistic (even beyond the characters, spoon-feeding…
The 'Whodunnit?' type of storytelling is something I have always liked as it always provides a fun distraction that, when done well, almost always guarantees immediate audience involvement as we are always part of the investigation. Agatha Christie is in the top tier of authors in this genre, heck, she practically invented it.
Lumet's film takes on one of her classic Poirot stories. His hand is immediately present, not only because Sean Connery pops up, but also because it has a rich visual flair, beautifully constructed scenes and crisply edited dialogue that make the distilled version of this elaborate novel not only beautiful to look at, but also quite easy to follow.
This film has an excellent cast, but of…
Look at this cast! Sean Connery. Lauren Bacall. Ingrid Bergman. Richard Widmark. Albert Finney. Vanessa Redgrave. Anthony Perkins. Martin Balsam. Jacqueline Bisset. and plenty of great stage actors. With Sidney Lumet behind it all, I asked myself: what took so long to see this?
Detective Poirot (Finney) was a late addition to the Orient Express train route that evening, given permission to a full car lot by company director Bianchi (Balsam). Onboard the train, a man known as Ratchett (Widmark) looks to Poirot for protection as he fears he is a wanted man. Well, when a gruesome murder takes place in the middle of the night, it's up to Poirot to put the pieces together.
To sum it up, this…
"Is it about sex?"
"No, it's about 10:30."
What's Sidney Lumet done here, then? He's made this into a comedy, that's what he's done. And not an inadvertent one either, despite the melange of dreadful accents and overacting on display.
I'm pretty sure he meant this to be completely tongue-in-cheek. I just wonder if the Academy Awards got that when they handed out an Oscar for best supporting actress to Ingrid Bergman and a nomination for best actor for Albert Finney's approximation of Hercule Poirot. I suspect probably not but in their own way they are both rather deserving.
I can't say that I've ever been a fan of Agatha Christie's stories. As far as I'm concerned she only ever…
Whistle stop #14, UK, on:
Lise & jonnie Around the World 2016
I never thought I'd say this, but I've found a Lumet that I didn't particularly like.
Films like Network, Dog Day Afternoon, Fail Safe .. all among my favourite films; all dialogue heavy / action light character dramas. I'm not a reader of who-done-it's, but I loved Lumet's own Deathtrap from 8 years later. It can't be that I'm having an issue with claustrophobia, with so many characters in such a cramped space, as I consider 12 Angry Men a masterpiece. All I can think of is the script and the performances, and, dare I say it .. the direction.
As the opening credits rolled, and star after star…
The story may seem hard to follow, but in the end you get the gist of everything. Some people will find the conclusion annoying, but it's original. Apart from the fantastic performances by a perfect cast, the film is beautifully shot, with its flawless execution of both suspense and cinematography that gives it an overall taste of a classic whodunnit.

A great case-study in how one great performance can make a movie worthwhile. Murder on the Orient Express is exquisitely constructed. Director Sidney Lumet handles the sprawling cast with ease and constantly fills the frame with lush period-detail. It's as glitz and glam as a 70s period picture can be, shot on beautiful celluloid, production designed within an inch of its life, scored with utter bombast and cast to the nines. This is probably the most impressive international cast you could hope to assemble in 1974; Sean Connery, Lauren Bacall, Anthony Perkins, Ingrid Bergman, Richard Widmark, Martin Balsam, Michael York, Vanessa Redgrave and Albert Finney. Blimey! Talk about A-list.
Being based on one of Agatha Christie's most renowned novels, Orient…
A surprising misfire by Sidney Lumet with a dynamite cast and a dynamite mystery that feels rather flat and weak throughout.
With names like Anthony Perkins, Sean Connery, Ingrid Bergman, Albert Finney-and many more-one can't help but notice that the film could have been stronger.
Finney is definitely the strongest part as he's nearly unrecognizable while playing Poirot-and the rest of the players feel fine.
Yet there's a recognition that the story holds little suspense and the mystery feels campy rather than significant.
Perhaps the director meant for the film to be a comedy-but even there it doesn't quite fully work.
Still fun to see so many talented people in one picture.
The film is in fact based on the 1934 novel Murder on the Orient Express by Agatha Christie. It is a wonderful film - I have never read the book to compare to the movie - but I can say the film is worth watching if you love a good mystery movie.
An all-star, well seasoned, cast does help to make the film more intriguing, more appealing because all gave outstanding performances in this film. The story itself will easily pull you in even if you are unfamiliar with the cast - the story (mystery) is that good.
If you like this movie then you may enjoy similar types of films like "Sleuth", "Deathtrap" or "Murder By Death".
Potential is here
With this cast, but it goes by
Far too fast to solve.
The detective novel written by the fantastic Dame Agatha Christie, who happens to be my favorite crime novelist of all time, was here made into film by one of the best directors of all time, the fabulous Sidney Lumet. Previous films I've seen by Lumet such as 12 Angry Men and Dog Day Afternoon was filmed in one location, which made Lumet the perfect director for this film, since it was almost entirely done on the "Orient Express". The film is very faithful to the novel and does a good job overall portraying the characters and it seems that Christie agrees with me, "An 84-year-old Agatha Christie attended the movie premiere in November of 1974. It was the only film…
An unforgettable all-star director and cast for a classic Agatha Christie murder-mystery voyage on a mythical train.
I've never been fully convinced by Sidney Lumet, but I think he deserves respect for the way he had such a long career within Hollywood but kept slightly to the side, found a place in the periphery which gave him a certain freedom to do what he wanted. But here he makes a solid Hollywood machine film, 1970s style. And it is so dull. Yes, I know Agatha Christie is dull, but the books are lightweight and unpretentious, while the film is big and plodding and dull. Take the beginning, all the characters arriving for the train, one after another, they walk down the platform – it's a fashion parade for the Hollywood costume department but completely dead. Then when…
Star-studded film version of the Agatha Christie whodunit. Albert Finney stars as Hercule Poirot, who's heading from Istanbul to London on board the famous train. A wealthy American businessman is murdered on the same night that the train is held up by a massive snow drift on the tracks. The man was a detestable asshole, but did he deserve to die? And who did it? - the loudmouth American? The flustered missionary? The Hungarian royal couple? The British officer? The businessman's secretary? Some other mystery person? And how is it all related to the high profile kidnapping and murder of a famous child? A great cast offers great acting all around, led by Finney's eccentric turn as Poirot. Fun, stylish period mystery, well-written, with great use of a claustrophobic location and a rather satisfying solution. Nicely creepy opening montage detailing the child's kidnapping, based on the Lindbergh kidnapping case. Great old-fashioned filmmaking, of a type they really don't do anymore.

We ordered international tickets from this company at a very competitive rate. The security this company use is great, because although they are verifying your account they are not treating you as if you are a fraudster. Very thorough but polite. We ordered the tickets and we got a wonderful rate for our multicity travel plans. This is a 3rd party travel agent, so the tickets are not issued immediately as they would if you book directly or with a major 3rd party travel site (travelocity, kayak and etc). But this is a wonderful company, very thorough, precise, friendly and wonderful rates! We will definitely book through them again and tell family and friends about the site! We are Very satisfied customers!!
