A wall is usually a solid structure that defines and sometimes protects an area. Most commonly, a wall delineates a building and supports its superstructure, separates space in buildings into rooms, or protects or represents a space in the open air.
Walls with the right light show a large variety of textures that are a very interesting photographic subject and I try to give a demonstration in this book.
The sequence of images is conceived as a zoom-out, starting from wall details, or unstructured forms that, page after page, take form till the last page of the book where the wall is well-structured and part of a landscape.
I like to photograph anything that inspires me; I like to find beauty where others don't... because the Beauty, like Verity and Goodness, is an antidote against pessimism, an invite to enjoy life. My photographic effort is therefore devoted to communicate and transmit the Beauty using light, perspective, colour and composition motivated by the passion, by the curiosity, by the patience and by the perseverance. In fact it is the passion and perseverance that drive me to come back more times and at improbable time in the same place waiting for the better light and framing, the most favourable moment o simply to put at ease the subject. I think that photography helps to see what surrounds us, which we often overlook. The camera helps me to avoid this error.

David Gan has not received any gifts yet
During my childhood, I always can we think best for ourselves. I always heard from the poor poeple saying that life is very hard and they don't have a choice but to work hard to get what they want. Is that really true, and working hard is the only choice we have? When started to work, the same thing happens to me as well as people around me. Then I have another question in mind, when the time we get what we think we want, is that really what we want?

AFTER CARS is a photographic documentation of digital sculptures created by Coll.eo within Garry's Mod v. 13. GMOD is a sandbox physics game based on a modified Source Engine originally introduced in 2006.
Alternating a surrealist sensibility with a dark, cerebral sense of humor, AFTER CARS evokes a distinct 1970s pre-apocalyptic vibe, whose aesthetics of disorder, destruction, and devolution was perfectly captured by the cover art of seminal Pelican paperbacks like Vance Packard's The Waste Makers (1966 edition) and Terence Bendixson's Instead of Cars (1977 edition). What makes AFTER CARS uncanny is the juxtaposition of the "natural" and the inorganic in a completely virtual. What are these automobiles doing in a pastoral, idyllic meadow surrounded by distant hills? Were they kidnapped from their "natural" setting (i.e. the city, seen from a distance) and then killed, execution-style? Is the viewer visiting a car cemetery? Or some kind of auto purgatory?
This project was created as Coll.eo. Colleo is Colleen Flaherty and Matteo Bittanti.

When the snap of pipe-and-drum corps snares and the blaring of bagpipes begin reverberating off downtown Scranton buildings Saturday morning, one of the busiest days of the year for the city's Police Department will have officially begun.
Saturday's weather is expected to be crisp, clear and 42 degrees, perfect for parade-goers. But the city's landmark event always poses "a bit of a challenge for the Police Department," city Police Chief Dan Duffy said during a news conference at police headquarters Wednesday.
The parade will step off at 11:45 a.m. Saturday at Wyoming Avenue and Mulberry Street, head south to Lackawanna Avenue where it will turn left and continue around to Jefferson Avenue and turn left on Spruce Street before turning right on North Washington Avenue, according to the parade route map on the parade committee website.
Alongside the city police presence on Saturday, members of the state police and Lackawanna County sheriff's office will be among the agencies assisting on parade day.
The emphasis at the news conference Wednesday was on celebrating safely during Scranton's "rite of spring," parade director Jaime Hailstone said.
"The cooperation we get from the state police, the Scranton police, the county ... it's spectacular," Mr. Hailstone said of the security preparations for the parade. "We really feel like we're a part of that side of the day."
In an effort to curb drunken driving on perhaps the city's most notorious day for overimbibing, the County of Lackawanna Transit System will be offering free rides on buses, which will be stationed in the 100 block of Franklin Avenue, said COLTS director Robert Fiume.
What organizers hope will help keep Saturday a day for the parade rather excessive partying, Mr. Hailstone noted that downtown bar owners have agreed to keep their taps dry until 9 a.m., two hours after the 7 a.m. that was common in the past.

Let's start with this: six of Week'1 top 10 fantasy defenses were owned in less than 20 percent of Yahoo! Leagues.
Let that wash over you. And while you're at it, throw that inconvenient fact in the faces of anyone who insists their seventh round selection of the Seattle Seahawks defense was the correct one.
|Ownership %
|Week 1 points
|Kansas City Chiefs
|Dallas Cowboys
|Miami Dolphins
|Buffalo Bills
|Tennessee Titans
|Detroit Lions
|New York Jets
|Tampa Bay Buccaneers
|Denver Broncos
I mentioned on Friday that Vegas's over-under on the Raiders-Colts game made me a little queasy, and Terrelle Pryor proved the killer of our dreamy streamer. Oakland's horrendous offensive line hardly mattered, as Pryor broke one tackle after another and stripped points from the Colts' defense.
I count myself fortunate that Indy picked off two Pryor passes. They would've been a bottom-five fantasy defense otherwise.
Let this be a lesson against what we thought was a foolproof strategy: rolling out every defense that faces Oakland.
Here are my Week 2 rankings. You should always use the streaming option you want, rather than the one I have ranked higher. I wouldn't suggest any streamer without confidence that they'll be a viable weekly option.
Oakland Raiders vs. Jacksonville Jaguars: I own Jacksonville's defense in a league with a deep bench because, naturally, I was all aboard the stream-against-Oakland bandwagon. I may have been the self-appointed conductor of said wagon.
No more.
The Raiders sacked Andrew Luck four times in their Week 1 matchup, while holding him to 178 yards through the air. The Colts seemed to take their foot off the offensive gas a bit in the second half, for whatever that's worth. Chad Henne – who will almost certainly start with Blaine Gabbert nursing 15 stiches – is a turnover machine, and a streaming defense magnet.
Henne threw 11 interceptions in nine starts last season.
Jacksonville's moribund offense gave up six sacks and two interceptions in Week 1. That makes the Raiders a top-10 Week 2 play, with top-5 potential.
Baltimore Ravens vs. Cleveland Browns: I think it's safe to say that fantasy owners who saw their precious Baltimore fantasy defense get chainsawed by Peyton Manning and company will drop the Ravens to the depths of your local waiver wire this week.
They have no foresight. The Ravens get the Browns in Baltimore Week 2, just seven days removed from Brandon Weeden's three first-half interceptions against Miami. The Browns have talent, to be sure, to go along with a vertical threat that showed its teeth through much of the preseason. Cleveland all but shut down Trent Richardson after four nice early-game runs against the Dolphins, begging the question: Will Norv Turner tone down his aerial attack until further notice? If so, it's good news for the Ravens.
The Ravens make for an elite Week 2 streamer.
Carolina Panthers at Buffalo Bills: The Panthers front seven shut down the usually dominant Seattle running attack in Week 1, while pressuring Russell Wilson almost every time he dropped back. Carolina's defense was as impressive as its offensive was unimpressive.
Carolina's secondary was gashed to the tune of 320 yards in the opener, posing concerns about EJ Manuel piling up the yardage if the Panthers shut down Buffalo's running attack, as they did against Seattle. Bills offensive linemen Colin Brown and Eric Wood struggled mightily against New England — I wouldn't expect that to change much against the Panthers' impressive front seven.
New Orleans Saints at Tampa Bay Buccaneers: This is a bit of a wild card, I'll admit. the Saints are a decent option, however, if you're in a 14-team league and stuck with a Week 1 streaming defense that has a hideous Week 2 matchup.
The Saints' pass rush was ranked on Pro Football Focus as the sixth best of Week 1, and the New Orleans front seven bottled up Steven Jackson for all but one play that saved Jackson's fantasy day. Matt Ryan gashed the Saints through the air last week, which should come as a shock to precisely no one.
Tampa Bay doesn't have quite the aerial attack the Atlanta sports, and the New Orleans defense is improved from last season's joke of a unit, so I wouldn't expect Josh Freeman to go bonkers like he did against the Saints in Tampa last year.
Keep an eye out for my Friday update in which we examine Vegas's advice for streaming options, in the form of over-unders.
Eagles. Gonna play TO-prone Rivers-led offense who'll be asked to throw a bunch to keep up. Also, flying from WC to EC drains teams
I have NE defense already, would any of these plays make sense to replace?
how about the Colts against MIA? I'm thinking about keeping them as i had them wk1 or to switch to KC or OAK … hard decision.
Am I the only one thinking KC's performance wasn't a fluke? Yes, it was against Blaine Gabbert, but the Jags didn't cross the 50 yard line until the 4th quarter. Domination like that is rare. Now they get the Cowboys at home, all hyped from a Giants win, with a gimpy Dez Bryant too. Romo having one of his trademark bad games… I could see it happening.
And call me crazy but I'm actually considering the New York Jets as a serious option this week against the Patriots, not the other way around. No Vereen, no Gronk, probably no Amendola either. Julian Edelman is the main receiving threat for the Pats. Tom Brady is great, but this is ridiculous. Buffalo had the 4th highest DEF Week 1 score, as mentioned. This game was a real chance of being an upset.
I'm not sure I can get on board the NYJ bandwagon this week, but I like your KC thoughts. Big home field advantage against a banged-up team. Good call.
I'm a believer in KC's defense as well. Scooped them up and starting them. Lot of talent there, and I think their pass rush is going to expose just how shaky the Dallas offensive line is and give Romo a lot of problems. When I think of this game, I remember what happened to Dallas in Week 2 after beating the Giants in NY on opening night. They got blown up by the Seattle D on the road. I smell a Week 2 repeat again this year. Combine that with Romo and Dez not being 100%, and I'm loving this matchup.
Am I the only one thinking KC's performance wasn't a fluke? Yes, it was against Blaine Gabbert, but the Jags didn't cross the 50 yard line until the 4th quarter. Domination like that is rare. Now they get the Cowboys at home, all hyped from a Giants win, with a gimpy Dez Bryant too. Romo having one of his trademark bad games… I could see it happening.
Also, call me crazy but I'm also thinking about starting the Jets this week. Vereen's on IR, and I'm hearing Amendola and Gronk
We'll see…living the stream by rolling with KC again this week.
Hmm I'm last on waivers and Need to drop Tampa…Which order to line up , choice of Dallas , Oakland, Lions, Steelers OR Eagles ..Thanx :)
Is CIN a good call over these choices week2 ?
Yes, the Bengals are a top-3 plug and play option.
I took your advice and started Kansas City. I even bragged about what I was about to do on Friday to the other owners. 26 PTS!!! I'll be putting in a waiver claim for a certain silver & black this week. Don't forget the whole cross-country trip part of the Jags – Raiders matchup.
Would you go with NE over these options?
Yes, all day.
Where would you rank Dallas, Detroit, and Carolina – compared to the options above?
These three are all available on my WW as well. I would like to see where they rank, too.
: ) thanks

Tonight: Mostly clear with a low from the upper 50s to mid 60s.
Friday: Sunny and pleasant with a high in the upper 70s to lower 80s.
Friday Night: Mostly clear with a low in the lower 60s.
Saturday: Mostly sunny and warm with a high in the lower 80s.
The extended forecast calls for a mostly sunny sky on Sunday with a low in the mid 60s and a high in the lower 80s. Clouds and sun on Monday with a slight chance of an afternoon thunderstorm. The low will be in the mid 60s and the high will be in the mid 80s. Clouds and sun on Tuesday with a few afternoon thunderstorms. The low will be in the mid 60s and the high will be in the mid 80s. Clouds ands sun on Wednesday with afternoon thunderstorms. The low will be in the upper 60s and the high will be in the mid 80s.
Weather Summary
A cold front that produced widespread showers and thunderstorms last night continues to move to our south and east. This resulted in a mostly sunny sky today along with seasonable temperatures as highs reached the mid 70s on average. High pressure will continue to build over the Middle Atlantic states tonight and on Friday. With a clear sky and light winds, temperatures will fall into the upper 50s at some rural and inland locations, with low to mid 60s elsewhere. Friday will be another sunny day with highs in the upper 70s to around 80. With high pressure overhead, humidity levels will be comfortable for June. Looking ahead, the upcoming weekend will continue to be dominated by high pressure, but the center of the high will move offshore later in the weekend and a southerly, more humid flow of air will develop. Consequently, next week will feature sunshine, but humidity will increase along with the likelihood of afternoon thunderstorms.

Prove that for all integers $n$, $\cos (2\pi/n)$ is an algebraic number.
Sign up
- Anybody can ask a question

If you believe that sums and scalar multiples of numbers algebraic over $\mathbb{Q}$ are algebraic, then we have $1 + x + \ldots + x^{n-1}$ has roots $\cos(2\pi/n) \pm i \sin(2\pi /n)$, hence half their sum.
We have $\zeta_n = e^{2\pi i/n}$ being an algebraic integer for all $n$ simply because it is a root of $x^n -1$. Now notice that $\zeta_n + \zeta_n^{-1} =2\cos(\frac{2\pi i}{n})$ and hence $\frac{1}{2}(\zeta_n + \zeta_n^{-1})$ is contained in the finite algebraic extension $\Bbb{Q}(\zeta_n)$ from which it follows that it itself is algebraic over $\Bbb{Q}$. This comes from the equivalence of the following facts:
Let $E/F$ be a field extension and $\alpha \in E$. TFAE:
Lastly I should add that $\frac{1}{2}(\zeta_n + \zeta_n^{-1})$ is in fact an algebraic integer, meaning to say that its minimal polynomial has coefficients in $\Bbb{Z}$.

The Franchise
"It's the franchise, boy, I'm shining now…"
In 2006, the Minnesota Twins were supposed to have the lethal 1-2 combination of savvy vet Johan Santana and unhittable rookie Francisco Liriano leading them deep into the playoffs. That is, until Frankie's arm popped one too many times, and old Tommy John reared his ugly head.
After losing all of 2007 and most of 2008, last year was a lost one for the Cisco Kid, as he struggled mightily with control, his delivery, and his velocity. Good thing that is now in the past, as "The Franchise" is now living up to the billing.
His stat line tonight might not have been all that sparkly (6 IP, 3 ER), but he did strike out seven batters (including Manny Ramirez twice) and pretty much dominated until he ran out of gas a little early due to an extended opening inning. He was hitting 97 mph on Chicago's radar gun, had the biting slider, and even a nice assortment of changeups to really keep the batsmen shifting.
Amazingly enough, that wasn't even the pitching performance of the game, as that "award" goes to Jesse Crain for striking out Paul Konerko and Manny Ramirez with likely the game on the line in the seventh inning. While I may not take back ALL the things I've said about Crain on this blog, I will say that he has undergone perhaps the most remarkable in-season turnaround of any reliever I've ever seen. He's absolutely unhittable right now, and is mopping up all of Guerrier's and Rauch's messes.
I was very surprised by the lack of pizazz shown by the Chicago crowd tonight. With Ramirez up and the bases loaded in the seventh, the fans never really even got on their feet or made any noise (except, of course, to boo Manny rigorously as he returned to the dugout). Then, when Alex Rios misplayed a ball in center field that allowed three runs to score and effectively clinched a Twins victory, I thought the Chi-Sox fans were practicing a fire drill the way they were heading for the exits.
I would like to believe that, if the roles had been reversed, Twins fans at Target Field would have been on their feet in those crucial situations and not leaving until that 27th out.
Preview (86-58, 1st, 7.0 GA CWS, Magic #: 12): Brian Duensing (8-2, 2.02) vs. Gavin Floyd (10-12, 3.91)
More Bailouts Than Obama (aka Don't Mess Around With Jim)
Tonight's Twins-White Sox game featured more bailouts of Twins' pitchers than the Obama Administration:
First, Scott Baker stunk it up once again, giving up a bevy of hard-hit balls, including a moonshot from Paul Konerko in the early innings:
However, the Twins also got dingers of their own from Delmon Young and Orlando Hudson, as well as a big triple from Jason Kubel, to stay in the game.
With the Twins leading 5-4 going into the bottom of the ninth, Matt Capps was brought in for the save situation. The first batter, Alexei Ramirez, homered to tie the game, but Capps was bailed out by a huge, bases-loaded double play to end the inning.
In the tenth, Jon Rauch took the mound and, with one out, gave up three straight singles to once again allow the White Sox to score a run, giving them a 6-5 lead. Rauch, for the second time in as many games, couldn't even finish off his inning and had to be replaced:
At this point, though, is when Big Jim took matters onto his own, rather broad shoulders:
In the bottom of the tenth, Delmon Young sent a rocket right through the crotch (almost literally) of Matt Thorton. Up stepped Jim Thome, and three things happened in rather short fashion:
1. The ball rocketed towards the right field pavilion;
2. The ball landed, giving Thome career homer #581, and the first walk-off jack at Target Field;
3. A shaving cream-filled towel quickly homed in on Thome's face, courtesy of one Nick Punto.
Every win against the Sox is a good win at this point, but it's so much sweeter when Thome does it to his former mates! Next to Delmon Young choosing to punch AJ Pierzynski in the face instead of sliding into home plate, Thome's blast is easily the highlight of the season-series with these two clubs so far. Can we drop them even further back tomorrow?!
Preview (69-50, 1st, 4.0 GA CWS): Gavin Floyd (8-9, 3.70) vs. Francisco Liriano (11-7, 3.26).
Tonight, Francisco Liriano went 5.2 innings and only gave up one run. Without observing the game and just going by that stat line, you'd think that maybe he walked a few too many guys or just ran out of gas. This was not the case whatsoever. In fact, Frankie (if not spectacular) was remarkable in his ability to get out of jams.
In the fifth inning, with the bases loaded with Sox and no one out, Cisco got Rios to hit into a force play at the plate, then struck out both Konerko and Quentin on nasty sliders to end the inning.
In the sixth, the Sox again loaded the bases, this time with one out, only to see Liriano get Pierre to line out and then cede to Guerrier, who popped out Ramirez.
All told, it was a miraculous performance from Liriano in terms of pitching out of jams.
Then the seventh inning dawned, the Tighty-Whities put a man on base (Mauer) to pitch to Kubel, and that pretty much ended things:
-With Valencia playing so well at third, there seems to be no rush to hurry along Nick Punto back from injury. When Little Nicky does return, I would hope that Gardy would use him as a sub, not wrenching the starting job from a still-hitting Danny Boy.
-Will anyone really miss Mijares? He's basically what I call a 50-50 guy. He might get the lefty out, but he also has just a great a chance at walking him or uncorking a wild pitch. Is he worth it as a LOGEY?
Preview (65-50, 1st, 1.0 GA CWS): Gio Gonzalez (10-7, 3.51) vs. Carl Pavano (14-7, 3.28). As Bert Blyleven said on the telecast tonight, Oakland is playing some decent ball right now, and can throw some quality arms at us this weekend. But is it any match for the stache? I think not.
Whew…That Was Close
Whew…the Twins managed to avoid a sweep today at the hands of the Tigers thanks to another solid outing from Carl Pavano and some much-needed clutch hitting (that didn't produce too many double plays).
With pretty much the entire rotation struggling at this point, Pavano took the rotation on his back and turned in 7.2 IP while allowing just three earned runs. Heck, he even managed to keep Miguel Cabrera from completely destroying us!
Multi-hit games from Young, Cuddyer (who is finally starting to hit the ball again), and Kubel allowed the M&M-less offense to come out on top.
This was a big win for the Twins, as heading into the break three games back is much better (if only psychologically) than five.
-Justin Morneau, due to his lingering concussion symptoms, will not start in the All-Star game (or play whatsoever) on Tuesday night. Cabrera will start the game, while Paul Konerko of the White Sox has been added to the roster.
-Sad news today in hearing that longtime Yankees PA announcer Bob Sheppard passed away today. I know that he hadn't been doing the PA for a few years now, but his recorded broadcast still introduces Derek Jeter to this day. Younger fans may not remember the name, but the voice will likely be familiar.
Preview: Home-Run Derby! Here are this year's participants:
National League: Chris Young (Diamondbacks), Corey Hart (Brewers), Matt Holliday (Cardinals), Hanley Ramirez (Marlins)
American League: David Ortiz (Red Sox), Nick Swisher (Yankees), Miguel Cabrera (Tigers), Vernon Wells (Blue Jays)
And Here…We…Go!
Well folks, it all comes down to this. Four games that will likely determine the course of the 2009 American League Central division. The Tigers are playing like they have all season (up and down, just waiting for someone to pass them), while the Twins are on fire when not facing Mr. Grienke and his practically unhittable stuff (just ask Jason Kubel). Of course, the great equalizer is Comerica Park, where the Tigers have played even better than the Twins have at the Dome this season.
This is what September baseball is all about!
Preview (81-74, 2nd, 2.0 GB DET): Nick Blackburn (11-11, 4.18) vs. Rick Porcello (14-9, 4.14).
On another note, Ozzie The Nut is at it again.
http://sports-ak.espn.go.com/mlb/clubhouse?team=chw (Click on Ozzie Rips White Sox)
These kind of rants… are exactly why I hate this guy so much. If I were a player (even one that might very well be in the doldrums), I would be personally offended by that type of language and the kinds of names he calls people. I wonder how the truly professional Sox like Konerko, Dye, and the now-departed Thome feel about that kind of bull crap?
Two Disturbing Trends
I know that the next statement I am about to make is not at all fair to closers all over baseball, but (at least in my case) it is true nonetheless: Having your team's closer blow the game in the bottom of the ninth is the single worst way to lose a ballgame, bar none. Now, add to the mix the idea that your closer might do so against your hated enemy, with two outs, and two strikes (twice). That's pretty much what Twins fans are feeling towards Joe Nathan today. He's too important to our playoff hopes to give up on him now, but I think there has to be a cooling-off period (probably a good thing the Twins are travelling to Cleveland today).
Once Wednesday's meltdown was complete, the impact of such a crucial and heartbreaking loss really drove home to me two disturbing trends that the Twins have fallen prey to both this season and the last.
First, are the late-season struggles of Joe Nathan:
When all is said and done, Nathan's stats inevitably compare very well with the best closers in the league, yet for the past two years he has struggled to close out games come late August and early September. Now, we're not talking about the Eddie Guardado-method of struggling here (filling the bases and then wriggling out of trouble)…Nathan's problems get so severe that he often blows the save chance or the game. He hasn't been on his game as of late, and Twins fans will also remember how bad he was during that long, late-season road trip in September of 2008 (capped by that now-infamous throwing error against the Blue Jays in Toronto). Sometimes he will still have the ability to blow guys away, but all too often he is not able to find the handle on this control, thus having to groove meatballs just to get strikes. Gordon Beckham and Paul Konerko showed him EXACTLY what happens to grooved meatballs in major league baseball.
Disturbing Trend #2: A similar slump from Justin Morneau…
If the league MVP award was given out after July, Justin Morneau would win the darn thing almost every single season. Yet, in those final two months (it happened last year and is happening again now), the home runs disappear and the average begins to sink towards about .270 (after sitting at .310 or so for most of the year). This trend may be even more disturbing (and perplexing) than Nathan's, though, as Joe Closer can usually right the ship by season's end. Justin, however, continued to sink last year to the point where opposing pitchers were walking Joe Mauer to get to him.
I don't quite understand why this is, as he plays about the least demanding position on the diamond in terms of physical conditioning and injury potential. For example, I don't know any of these splits, but it wouldn't surprise me one bit if Torii Hunter (while playing on the Dome turf) slumped in the later months due to the beating his body took from bouncing around on that carpeted concrete. The same axiom is usually try for mortal catchers (e.g. those not named Mauer)…they take a physical beating the slump accordingly. About the only thing "afflicting" Morneau, though, is that he gets less off-days than any other player on the team, but once again that should be expected out of his position.
If the Twins think they can continue to play well and capture the AL Central, both those "wrongs" are going to have to be corrected, as the bullpen can't survive without a closer and the lineup isn't deep enough to support a slumping Canadian.
Preview (67-66, 2nd, 5.0 GB DET): Carl Pavano (11-10, 5.11) vs. Jeremy Sowers (5-9, 4.88). The schedule is again in our favor this weekend, as the Tigers draw the Rays while we get the Injuns.
No Way…Yep, Jose!
Can anything go wrong for the Minnesota Twins right now (especially with Chicago in town)?!
After the game ended in dramatic fashion, with Jose Morales pinch hitting with two outs and a man on third in the bottom of the ninth and getting a solid base hit to win the game, I began thinking of all the remarkable occurences that transpired over those nine innings:
-For starters, Jeff Manship held the Sox to just one earned run over five innings. Yep, Jeff Manship, facing guys like A.J., Konerko, and Dye got the job done.
-Jon Rauch (recently acquired from Arizona) made just his second appearance in the white pinstripes, pitched a scoreless ninth inning, and got his second win of the season. I believe it took Francisco Liriano about two months to get to two wins!
-Michael Cuddyer once again clubbed two bombs in one game. We're turning this place back into the Homerdome yet!
-And finally, there's Jose Morales, the hero himself. In his first at-bat since God knows when (a month or two at least), Morales didn't allow himself to be cowed by the pressure situation and just got good wood on the ball. A new hero emerges every night, it seems.
The only thing to go wrong tonight was Jose Mijares and Matt Guerrier combining to blow a late-inning lead, but that only set the stage for all the dramatics (so maybe they just have a keen sense of theatre)!
Preview (67-65, 2nd, 3.5 GB DET): Mark Buerhle (11-7, 3.89) vs. Brian Duensing (2-1, 4.37). Let's make Buerhle's last Dome start a "memorable" one for him.
Must Be A Horrible Feeling
For almost a decade, the Minnesota Twins have laid a claim to having the best control coming from a starting pitching staff. While other staffs may have "that one guy" who can throw gas but can't find home plate with any frequency, the Twins consistently pound the zone and, while giving up a high frequency of home runs, also get a lot of outs.
Thus, the struggles from Scott Baker in the early innings of tonight's 6-2 loss against the Chicago White Sox were almost painful to watch. For whatever reason, Baker could not command any of his pitches and made catcher Mike Redmond look like a human pin-ball with the way he was reaching to-and-fro and blocking pitches behind the plate. I actually started to feel bad for Baker during those second and third innings, as it was clear that he just couldn't control any of his pitches.
After that horrific second inning, Baker came into the dugout and was given an earful from pitching coach Rick Anderson, who looked as if steam were about to come out of his ears. Though Twins announcer Bert Blyleven defended Anderson and liked the fiery persona, I don't know what good it did and whether it was called for. I mean, if Scott Baker wanted to control his pitches, he would have…it's as simple as that. Anderson can stew all he wants, but it still comes down to Baker hitting his spots.
Considering that Scotty-boy has had troubles locating pitches all season so far, I hope that he doesn't have some sort of mental block (sort of like the Rick Ankiel syndrome). Of course, it could also just be the typical Scott Baker "off" season that has plagued him his entire career. Baker has never pitched 200 innings in an entire season, nor has he had too really impressive years in a row.
-Ozzie Guillen is a joke (as if that is new knowledge, I know). A Pale Hose batter (Podsednik, I believe) bunts the ball down the first base line, the ball looks like it hits him, yet no call is made. Ron Gardenhire comes out to argue the play, and the home plate umpire decides to call a "conference meeting" and the play is overturned. Why, then, does Ozzie need to trot out and give the umps an earful? The umps would not have changed the call unless "indisputable visual evidence" (to steal an NFL phrase) was utilized, in this case one of the other umps seeing the ball hit the batter. I don't like managers who argue just for the sake of getting steamed up, and that is EXACTLY what Guillen was doing. Just sit down and shut up.
-Sean Henn made his Twins debut tonight…and now has a 13.50 season ERA. Will this ever end?
-Seriously Gardy…walking Paul Konerko to GET Jim Thome to the plate? I don't care if Carl Hubbell or Steve Carlton suddenly descended from the sky to take the mound for the Twins, I don't put guys on for the greatest Twins Killer in history (with respect to Griffey Jr. and A-Rod).
-Finally, I don't like to complain about the announcing a whole lot, but Bert: When Span bunts the ball unsuccessfully with the infield playing way back, he loses the "element" of surprise, not the "ultimate" of surprise. I only say this because I have heard it before.
Preview (18-22, 3rd, 4.5 GB DET): Francisco Liriano (2-4, 5.21) vs. John Danks (2-3, 4.82).

This was delicious, I wasnt sure what the 'liquid reserved' for the tomatoes meant in the directions, I just used the whole tin of tomatoes anyway, and I added a chopped red onion. Was a filling tasty dinner, loved the addition of the kidney beans. Thanks for posting. =)
Awesome!! I changed a few things. First I added an chopped onion while frying the ground beef. Then 4 cups beef broth & 2 cups water, 2 beef bouillon cubes. Doubled all spices plus 2 T. worcestershire sauce & 3/4 head of cabbage. I also omitted the beans to keep it low carb. So hearty and good! will make often.
Super easy and super delicious. I might substitute cooked brown rice for the beans next time to make it a "stuffed cabbage"-type soup, but it was excellent with the beans as well. I'm looking forward to having the leftovers for lunch today!

Fundraiser to benefit at-risk teens
Jamie's Joy event grew out of tragedy
SAN DIEGO - In the bedroom where her son once slept, Elene Bratton, her daughter, her brother, other relatives and volunteers put the final touches on more than 200 items to be offered in a silent auction.
"You know, I'd rather be sending him off to college or savoring my time before he went to college, but this is the legacy I've been left with," she said.
Bratton's Jamie was killed in a car crash in 2002 just shy of his sixth birthday after her sister reached for a cellphone while driving him home from school.
"I always imagined Jamie had something great to do," Bratton said. As a way to honor her son and carry on her legacy, she created a foundation that honors different community-based service groups.
This year, it will be Reality Changers, a group that mentors at-risk teenagers to steer them into college. The event will be held at the visitors' center at Mission Trails Regional Park Saturday evening.

When Eminence High School English teacher, Cara Puckett, offered me the opportunity to be a guest judge for her students' Poetry Out Loud competition, I eagerly accepted.
I like poetry, I like teenagers, how hard could it be?
Then I checked out the Poetry Out Loud National Recitation Project website and started to appreciate the complexities.
Participants were to choose two poems from a list of thousands spanning hundreds of years and representing all the different types of poetry.
Our Governor is calling it the most widespread natural disaster in our state's history. This was my second widespread natural disaster since taking office. In the case of the tornadoes of 2004 and this recent ice storm, I have been extremely proud of the caring and resourceful people of this county. At this time I would like to thank a few of those who pitched in to make the best out of the recent event.
On Feb. 3, the snow caused considerable headaches for many motorists. The timing of the snow and more of it than was forecast caused many parents to have concerns about the safety of their children while traveling home from school. I, like every employee of the Henry County Public Schools, make the safety of our children my number one priority each and every day. It gives me great comfort to know that the transportation staff performs their duties with a great amount of professionalism.
The recent power outage made me realize that perhaps my self-image has always been slightly askew. All my life, I have fancied myself the "pioneer" type; delighting in the sight of my baby's freshly washed diapers flapping in the Kansas breeze, making jam out of the wild blackberries I picked myself on our farm, knitting cotton dishrags for the kitchen, and helping haul water when we still depended on a cistern. I have always felt the simple life was for me, as if I could step into the pages of a Laura Ingalls Wilder book and feel completely at home.
On behalf of the City of Eminence, I would like to thank the many, many volunteers who gave of their time to assist the citizens of Eminence and Henry County during the recent snow and ice storm emergencies. The list is so long that I cannot mention everyone by name, but you know who you are. I am so proud to live in a community where people care so much for one another.
I am a senior at Henry County High School, and I'm writing to bring awareness about the importance of pet owners getting their pets spayed or neutered. Spaying and neutering a pet can make animals calmer and some animals feel less of an urge to run away from their home. Pets that have had the procedure done can no longer reproduce, so spaying or neutering your pet can help control the pet population. Needless to say, there will be no unwanted animals roaming the streets going hungry.
We would like to express our sincere appreciation for Tommie Kendall and his sports coverage in our community. We will always value the support and encouragement he has provided to our swim team. Since 2004, he has attended nearly every meet in order to provide accurate and pertinent information to our local community regarding our swim team. This includes traveling several miles to away meets which take place in the evenings and on weekends. Our sport is not the exception, he does this for all sports in our county.
One of the most significant and damaging health care issues facing the Commonwealth of Kentucky is the abuse of prescription pain medications. Nowhere is this problem more evident than in hospital emergency departments. As the predominate health care provider for families and employers of Carroll County and surrounding communities, the medical staff and board of directors of Carroll County Memorial Hospital are taking bold steps to address this drug problem in an attempt to protect our communities from this abuse.

Now that we're back to the grind and our post-holiday lives are starting to calm down, we've got the coldest days of the year upon us. It might be dark, the trees might be bare, but at least you've got your winter wardrobe to look forward to. Because it might have been a while since you pulled out your warmest knits, here's a reminder of the best sweater types, trends and classics that strutted down the runway this past fall. Get inspired, go through your closet and see if you can't pick up a few new styling ideas direct from our favorite designers.
Chunky Knit
Everything about this shot is stunning. From the gorgeous, slightly washed out blue of the sweater to the chunky design to the cut, and the maxi bottom replete with pockets, you can steal this styling any time you want. We won't tell. Feel free to borrow the belt idea, too.
Cacharel, IMAXtree
Fair Isle
We're loving Fair Isle right now, and J.Crew is the go-to retailer for it. Keep the ankle-length pants and switch out the heels for your favorite pair of knee-high heeled boots.
J.Crew IMAXtree
Boyfriend Style/Oversize
Oversize sweaters pay homage to the boyfriend style trend that no one can quite seem to get enough of — including us. Sure it might be a little 80s, but as long as you don't finish off a look like this with neon high tops, you can pair leggings and an oversize sweater in a modern way. Try motorcycle boots or ballet flats instead.
Giambattista Valli, IMAXtree
Cable Knit
How cozy and luscious does this look? Now here's where a pop of neon works — via a neutral-toned pairing. Too daring for the office? Try a sweater like this with a pencil skirt and boots, boyfriend jeans and Chucks, or shorts and tights...really your options are endless.
Jenni Kayne
Graphic sweaters are a hot trend, so we just had to mention them. Try to go for something abstract as opposed to a picture of, say, a cougar. It'll last longer in your wardrobe and is just more chic.
Chanel, IMAXtree
Open Knit
Fantastic layering pieces, the open knit sweater can be worn virtually year-round and for almost every occasion. The peekaboo quality allows you to play with showing skin while not being inappropriate. And here it is again, a belted waist — adore!
Theyskins Theory, IMAXtree
Colorblocking has been around now for, oh, we've lost count. Let's say that it's been popular since some of our readers were stuck in grade school. Here it is with a ski chalet vibe at Stella McCartney. The royal blue, black and gray pairing is ideal for simple looks and cool-toned blondes, redheads and brunettes.
Stella McCartney, IMAXtree
The Long Cardi
Here's another sweater we couldn't take our eyes off of, this long "grandpa" cardigan from Stella McCartney looks so warm and can be thrown over anything from a brocade fit-and-flare dress to your basic black shift to your pajamas when you're running to the corner store to pick up O.J. and eggs.
Stella McCartney, IMAXtree
The Wrap
Beautiful and classic, the wrap sweater is flattering for nearly all body types as it draws the eye to the waist while providing a little waist-cinching optical trick.
Christian Dior, IMAXtree
Crew Neck
So simple, so versatile. Crew necks might seem a bit obvious to include on our favorites list, but here's the deal: crew neck tops and sweaters are a classic, you should have at least one in your closet. The crew neck made a strong appearance on Spring 2013 runways, too, which means you'll be on point when you layer this into your look on a rainy day in April.
Balmain, IMAXtree

The Power of Moonshot
Like many companies, HP was a victim of IT sprawl -- with more than 85 data centers in 29 countries. We decided to make a change and took on a total network redesign, cutting our principle worldwide data centers down to six and housing all of them in the United States. With the addition of four EcoPODs and Moonshot servers, we are in the perfect position to build out our private cloud and provide our businesses with the speed and quality of innovation they need.

Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao is readying for another match in America? According to BleacherReport on Tuesday, the boxer and celebrity is returning to Las Vegas on April 12th for another match. This time he is expected to fight and win against WBO welterweight champion Timothy Bradley. The news first broke in Manila, but the fans around the world are excited to see the star return to the ring. The fight is supposed to be held at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
A match with one of the greatest boxers always brings out the fans. Plus Manny Pacquiao almost always stops in Hollywood at one of the talk shows to make a few predictions and sometimes even sings a song or two. A regular for the Jimmy Kimmel Show, it would be great to see the boxer at the Hollywood studio before hitting the ring. Add to all the excitement that famous people always go to the fights in Vegas and it's just another reason to watch the fight.
With two media outlets reporting that the date is set for April, the fans are now trying to find out how to get tickets and also consider how this might actually convince Floyd Mayweather to fight. It's a dream match for fans that someday Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao step in the same ring. If Manny wins against Bradley maybe that might happen.

In a closet of clothing, it is the ORANGE shirt that stands out.
In Drama we don't just wear ORANGE shirts - WE ARE ORANGE SHIRTS
While working on our craft - acting, designing and directing - we strive to bring recognition to our department. Many talented performers have given their all to help us, we hope to not only do what they did, but to also exceed them.
Last year, we performed The Bloody Attack of the Evil Demonic Giraffe Puppet which highlighted a great ensemble cast which included most of our seniors [Ryan Codero, Juli Itliong, Blanca Garcia, Isaiah Stowers, Tallon Pedragosa and Kristi De Lashmutt] and Jackie Va. We followed Giraffe Pupet with a Spoken Word night gving our members a chance to slam. We called it LYRICAL TRIPS - speak free, slam hard. Our annual musical, which we collaborated with Band, Choir, Dance and Art, was The WIZ. It was byfar the greatest show our program has produced. With and awsome cast, background singers, dancers, pit and scenic design, we brought our audience to the land of Oz in a way we never thought possible. Our last show was an evening of short scripts. SKITZ-O-FRENIA allowed each of our seniors a chance to shine in at least one script.
This season's shows have not been chosen, but we promise an even better and exciting year than the last. We do know that our annual musical will be - LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS. Please come support our department. Dates and times will be posted soon.

In semesters past, I have used AuthorStream for this project, but students consistently had trouble with adding the narration. This semester it's somewhat easier with Slideshare (I do love their audio syncing tool), but I had no idea how much time this would take! Here is my narrated slideshow on reaching and teaching the digital generation. Enjoy!

I am torn between two pistols for my virgin venture into CCW. This site has been a nearly bottomless well of opinions, knowledge, and advice for me and I can't tell you how much I apreciate it!
My question has to do with one of my choices, the 1911. I've been trying to look at all the 1911's out there and choose one that is not too pricey but reliable, and with a good reputaion to back up the suposed reliability(every gunmaker CLAIMS to have the miracle cure gun that beats all). I had settled on a Taurus PT1911(more bells & whistles for a cheap price) or a Springfield 1911 G.I.(possibly a more reliable, bare bones gun). But then I stumbled on the most beautiful gun I've ever laid eyes on(prepare to laugh at me in 3..2..1...), the Olympic Arms Westerner 1911 with a 6" barrel. Boy am I hooked! I've never seen a case hardend 1911 before & I love it. Now, I'm aware that a 6" barrel is pushing it for CCW so I would be getting the 5" version. As much as I love the looks of the gun, I'm not willing to carry a peice of pretty junk. It's Concealed Carry Weapon, not Concealed Carry Crap! So I need to hear if anyone has an Olympic Arms gun and what they think about them. Good? Bad? Definetly NOT ugly!
Olympic Arms, Inc. - Westerner Series
Pic added by QKS
So, whats the reputation of Olympic Arms?
Thanks- John
PS- I case your wondering the other gun I'm thinking about is the Glock 29(10mm).

Sydney Opera House
Sydney Opera House today paid tribute to actor and playwright Bille Brown who died on Sunday 13 January 2013, aged 61.
Opera House CEO Louise Herron said, 'Bille performed many times at Sydney Opera House and today staff have been sharing fond and often hilarious stories of their time working with undeniably one of the great wits of the theatre. It is a sad fact that Bille will not tread these boards again.'
Following drama studies at the University of Queensland, Bille began his onstage career with the Queensland Theatre Company (QTC) before travelling to the United Kingdom where he joined the Royal Shakespeare Company. Bille also appeared in many films (A Fish Called Wanda, Fierce Creatures, Oscar and Lucinda) and played on Broadway as both actor (Wild Honey) and writer (A Christmas Carol). He returned to Australia permanently in 1996 and performed with many of our leading theatre companies and built a significant career in television. Bille also was much in demand as a theatre director and teacher, accepting an adjunct professor position at the University of Queensland in 1999.
Bille Brown's contribution to Australia's cultural life was recognised twice. In 2001 he was awarded the Centenary Medal 'for distinguished service to the arts' and in 2011 he was named as a Member of the Order of Australia (AM) 'for service to the performing arts as an actor and playwright, and to education'. He received a 2009 Helpmann Award for his role in the musical Spamalot and in 2011 received an Honorary Doctorate of Letters from the University of Queensland. When the QTC's current home opened in Brisbane in 2002, a new intimate theatre space was named the Bille Brown Studio.
Louise Herron added, ' Among his great roles on Bennelong Point were his Howard Katz for the Sydney Theatre Company in 2003 together with a long and acclaimed association with Bell Shakespeare Company including roles in Twelfth Night, Hamlet and Troilus and Cressida, and he proved outrageously unforgettable in the Strut & Fret production of Feasting On Flesh in 2008. His performance in Belvoir's Judas Kiss directed by Neil Armfield AO in 1999 will remain a treasure to many Australians, as it does to me. '
Bille Brown's legacy to Australian performing arts is vast, and he will be remembered for his generosity as an actor, teacher and director and his commitment to nurturing and mentoring young performers. All of us at Sydney Opera House send our sympathy and condolences to his family and friends. Bille will be greatly missed.

Called "The Cadillac of Tracking Mounts" in a Sky & Telescope review, the Teegul Sky Patrol III sets up in minutes and holds scopes up to 6.5 pounds in weight. It has a built-in DC-powered right ascension worm gear drive. The drive has a right ascension drive corrector hand control for astrophotography, a manual declination control, a counterweight shaft and 1.3 pound counterweight, and a 6VDC battery pack that uses flashlight batteries (not supplied).
The Sky & Telescope review reported consistently well-tracked 15-minute exposure astrophotos with no manual guiding corrections whatsoever with an 85mm telephoto lens. Two out of three unguided 15-minute exposures with a 180mm lens also showed "nice round star images. In manually guided shots with a 300mm lens, guiding was easy and corrections infrequent during 10- to 15-minute exposures," according to Sky & Tel.
The Teegul Sky Patrol III hand control has switch-selectable Northern or Southern Hemisphere operation. An optional polar alignment scope is available for polar alignment in both hemispheres. It clamps onto the Teegul mount with one thumbscrew and can be left in place permanently. The worm gear right ascension drive is controlled by two pushbuttons, one providing 2 times the sidereal rate for periodic error tracking correction to the west and stop for a sidereal rate correction to the east. One revolution of the right ascension worm takes about 17.5 minutes. The 6VDC motor drive draws 170mA when tracking.
The Teegul is capable of handling a 6.6 pound (3kg) maximum payload using the supplied 1.3 pound (0.6kg) counterweight, although the optimum payload is 4.4 pounds (2kg). An optional 1.3 pound (0.6kg) counterweight (#TGULCWT) is available for balancing heavier loads. However, despite these payload limitations, the Sky & Telescope review loaded the mount down with a 14 pound payload, using additional counterweights with no adverse performance effects.

If someone can say their best friend is their pet then there is nothing wrong with you saying your best friend is Jesus. Society has a way of playing with our emotions making us believe that its somewhat socially unacceptable to make this kind of declaration but this country was built on the understanding that it is one nation under God and its a great honor and privilege to say I choose Jesus to be a best friend.
Friends come and friends may go but best friends tend to have great lasting power. As the world becomes a global melting pot the need to send out messages of great hope increases. The dynamics of friendships change and what is learned is not everyone has the opportunity to create lasting bonds with other people for whatever reason.
There are people in other parts of this world who are willing to lose their life for the opportunity to say they love the Lord Jesus and in this land we call America there is freedom to choose who you will worship and what God you choose to praise. Not everyone has the privilege but choose him and choose him despite the burden loving and praising him will bring to their lives.
Too often, these days, people tend to live behind their computer monitors forgetting to build concrete bonds with other human beings. There is a disconnect about the importance of building those ever important connections beyond the small world of the internet.
Jesus can be a soothing reliever of loneliness. He can be the one thing that fills a void where a human being may be absent. The one reassurance Jesus brings to the table is he is always present when yo call on him. When you accept him into your life as your Lord and Savior your initial obligation to receive his blessing is done.
What Jesus brings to your life is a great sense of peace. He is a friend that won't forsake you, leave you, or disappoint you. He is a great listener and even a greater redeemer. When you find him there is a light that begins to illuminate in your life letting his love shine through into your heart, mind, and spirit. Take that step and ask him to be your Lord and Savior and always remember that for the rest of your life He can be the best friend you've ever had.

Saudi Arabia is receiving praise for the successful conclusion of the Makkah Summit, which resulted in a landmark power-sharing agreement between Hamas and Fatah.
Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz invited the Palestinian leaders to hold reconciliation talks in Makkah, which yesterday resulted in the Makkah Agreement.
A range of countries praised King Abdullah's efforts, including the United Arab Emirates, Syria, Oman, Kuwait and Bahrain. Palestinian and Lebanese officials, as well as Arab League Secretary-General Amr Moussa and Organization of the Islamic Conference Secretary-General Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu, have all publicly welcomed the Makkah Agreement.
German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier lauded King Abdullah's efforts and expressed the hope that the agreement would end the internal violence in Palestine. Germany currently holds the presidency of the European Union.
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice also commented on the Saudi efforts during a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing yesterday. "We've made clear what we believe the international requirements are for any Palestinian government, but I think it's perfectly natural for regional states to try and help with the Palestinian crisis," she said.
