Germantown - A presentation on Monday from a third party consultant showed that Germantown School District administrators make well below the mean salary in comparison to 12 surrounding school districts.
The board hired consultant Jim Shaw, who looked at 12 districts in the state using nine characteristics to determine how comparably Germantown administrative salaries and benefits measure to their counterparts.
"For several months we have been communicating that Germantown administration is below market in terms of compensation and administration," School Board President Bob Soderberg said. "It just reinforced what we knew."
More than a dozen administrators were placed into three categories: falling 10 percent or more below the mean; 5 percent or more below the mean; and positions near the mean.
Districts that were compared included: New Berlin, Mukwonago, Hamilton, Oconomowoc, Cedarburg, Menomonee Falls, Franklin, Muskego-Norway, Kettle Moraine, Hortonville, Kimberly and Germantown.
The categories were determined based on district type (small, medium, large), percent free/reduced meals, enrollment, median home value, median household income, median worker income, average teacher salary, student performance and cost per member.
The superintendent, director of business and high school principal fall in the 10 percent or more below the mean salary, according to documents put together by Shaw. The superintendent's salary fell 12.8 percent below the mean salary, a difference of nearly $17,000.
Benefits were 66.1 percent below the mean.
The director of business's salary is 11.93 percent below the mean, while benefits are 82.31 percent below, according to the report.
The high school principal salary is 10.3 percent below the mean, while benefits for this position are 54.77 percent below.
"I consider Germantown to be a best-in-class school district and a school of choice for families to send their kids to and in order to sustain that we have to retain and attract the best talent and that would include administrators and teachers and I think the board would be abdicating the responsibility by not going down this path to hire a consultant to get this information," Soderberg said.
Since the School Board only just received the information on Monday, it is unclear the direction they will take as a result; however, it will be discussed at a future board meeting. Soderberg said they also have more research to do regarding benefit compensation, before there can be further discussion.

The Birmingham Public Library (BPL) Central Branch announced new temporary hours this due to heat and air issues. The hours are expected to be in place for six to eight weeks, depending on the progress of repairs to the air conditioning unit.
Starting Monday, April 28, the Central Library (downtown location) will open at 8 a.m. and close at 5 p.m., Monday through Saturday. It will be closed on Sundays. The new hours will not affect the system's other 18 locations.
According to Chanda Temple, BPL Director of Public Relations, freezing temperatures in January ruptured the air conditioner coil in the branch's main air handler. Parts have been ordered, and repairs will commenced once parts arrive. Additionally, access hours to public computers have been reduced to minimize the heat in the building.
BPL Associate Director Angela Fisher Hall commented, "Our patrons and staff have been very understanding as we work through this difficult time."
She added, "Our goal is to remain open as long as we can while keeping our patrons and staff as comfortable as possible. Other city departments are working very closely with us to get the needed repairs completed in a timely manner."
To help keep down heat within the building, the access hours to public computers will also be reduced. The public computers will be available from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. The free computer classes that are normally offered Monday through Wednesday at the Linn-Henley Research Library have also been deferred, as have proctoring services. Patrons are encouraged to visit other libraries to inquire about computer classes and proctoring services at this time.
Patrons are encouraged to visit the Birmingham Public Library website or Birmingham Public Library blog for the latest news and updates on the progress status of the maintenance and repairs.

You probably already know about Star Wars Weekends, which runs through June 15 at Disney's Hollywood Studios, but did you know that you can also dine with Darth Vader through that date? While the big Star Wars event is on weekends only, the two Star Wars meals run every day of the week.
First (and most exciting in my opinion) is the Star Wars Dine-In Galactic Breakfast at the Sci-Fi Diner. That's the one where you'll find Darth, along with Boba Fett and an assortment of other favorite characters from the galaxy far, far away. Go to this article for a slideshow of all the characters.
You'll meet Darth Vader and Boba Fett as you enter for your meal. It's $47.99 for adults and $29.99 for kids, with a variety of tasty selections. You can see the menu, along with some shots of the food and other scenes from the meal, in the slideshow accompanying this article. You'll love the little details, like the Yoda-shaped melon in the parfait and the colorful smoking dessert cart that tops off your breakfast with a special treat. All of the food is named with a Star Wars theme, like the Dune Sea (scrambled eggs with salmon and toast with goat cheese spread) and Ackbar Surprise (pan-seared shrimp with cheese grits).
The characters will come right to your table for photos, and in the meantime, you're entertainment by Star Wars trailers, clips, musical interludes and other fun scenes on the big screen. Jump to this article for some shots of the special Star Wars entertainment.
The other meal is Jedi Mickey's Star Wars Dine at Hollywood & Vine. It's a dinner featuring Mickey in his Jedi robe, along with a host of costumed Disney friends. It costs $59.99 for adults and $36.99 for kids.
You're welcome to take your own photos at both meals, and you also get a digital photo as part of your package (you'll love the special Photopass card). The dinner can also be booked as part of the Fantasmic dinner package.

Kelly Osbourne had to deal with a big wardrobe malfunction tonight at the Golden Globes. On Jan. 12, Kelly went to her Twitter to share with her fans about her zipper break, but luckily things turned out okay for her.
Kelly went to Twitter saying, "Already having a drama! My zip broke getting sown in #goldenglobes #eredcarpet http://instagram.com/p/jFUJhSgb4G/." This was her drama on the red carpet and it could have been worse for her. At least she was able to keep it all in and nobody got any embarrassing photos of her.
Her fans were responding to her about how amazing she looked. Kelly was able to look great and have a good time without worrying about her zipper break since they were able to get her fixed up.
The photo that she shared has people working on her dress to fix it. The dress she was wearing had a zipper all the way up the back and they are trying to get it fixed. She looked great so obviously they found a way to take care of Kelly Osbourne at the Golden Globe Awards tonight after her wardrobe malfunction.

Baby C Turns One (17 photos)
Sign In or Register Now
I think I started planning my baby girl's first birthday party shortly after coming home from the hospital with her. It felt like I had so much time because one year seemed so far off in the future. Well it turns out that the first year flies by! The next thing I knew I was ordering invitations from the printer and putting together menu details.
Because the first birthday party is largely for the parents and other adults, I decided to forgo a true "theme" and settled on a color scheme instead. If I had to define a theme it would have been "The Big One". The color palette I chose (inspired by a digital paper pack I purchased from Hello Love Too on Etsy) was Tangerine, Sherbet, Robin's Egg Blue, and Pink. I ordered the adorable paper straws, baker's twine, and party cups from TomKat Studio's shop. All of the paper (invites, thank you notes, banners, tent cards, party circles, etc.) was designed by me and printed at home. I also made coordinating tissue paper pompoms and pinwheels. The beautiful floral centerpieces were designed by my long-time best friend and I loved how they felt so much like Spring.
We served lunch, which consisted of a salad bar with grilled salmon and chicken, pasta salad and assorted bread. Everyone loved it and it was a conveniently do-ahead menu. I baked color coordinated cookies and 2 kinds of cupcakes... Chocolate Malt and Banana cupcakes with cream cheese frosting. The birthday girl had her first cake (and first sugar!) sitting in her vintage high chair that we sanded and painted aqua. She LOVED the cake and put on quite a show for everyone. I had high expectations for the cake smash and Baby C did not disappoint!
The day of the party turned out to be rainy, but we got creative and set up extra seating and the bar in the garage instead of the backyard. It was truly a beautiful day filled with so much love… it was everything I wanted it to be for my baby girl and our friends and family! I feel very fortunate that our photographer and friend, Hillary from Stills by Hill Photography, was there to capture it all.

Reviews for Cheese and Sausage Appetizers
"I cut out most of the butter -added a couple of teaspoons and added a little more sausage - this seemed to take care of the greasy effect. Love these"
"Served at a holiday party and they were enjoyed by all. You can make a dipping sauce for them, also. They do need to be served and eaten while hot, because they can get a little greasy when cool."
"VERY good appetizers! A little greasy, but they taste so delicious. They get cold quickly, so meant to be eaten immediately with no leftovers."
"This is one of my regular staples for the the holidays, they always disappear from the plate by evenings end."
"I made these for a gathering and everyone loved them. I brought them in to work and have had several people ask for the recipe. I think I'll try it with turkey sausage next time. I am also considering using mini muffin pans to help keep their shape."

SGD Clients and Top 10 New Features
By Chris Kawalek on Dec 15, 2006
Over at Proponere I'm discussing the different ways you can connect to an SGD server. Part 1 is up now and should be helpful to those confused about the differences between the browser-based client, the Java client, and the native client. In the soon to be posted part 2, I will describe the new integrated client available in version 4.3.
Also, Fat Bloke is counting down his top 10 new features in SGD 4.3. My favorite of the three features he has posted so far is kind of obscure: automatic proxy detection. Believe me, as unglamorous as it sounds, it makes the end user experience much better for users who move from network to network.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a slightly toxic, odorless, colorless gas with a slightly pungent, acid taste. it is currently occurring at an average concentration of about 390 parts per million by volume or 591 parts per million by mass.
CO2 gas is 1.5 times as heavy as air, so if released to the air it will concentrate at low elevations. Warmer air temperatures would result in increased surface-water temperatures, decreased duration of ice cover and, in some cases, lower water levels. These changes may contribute to decreased concentrations of dissolved oxygen.
About three-quarters of the anthropogenic emissions of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere during the past 20 years have been due to fossil-fuel burning. Activities consuming fossil fuels include power generation, transport, industrial/manufacturing processes. The rest of carbon dioxide emissions are predominantly due to land-use change, especially deforestation. The primary reason identified by climate scientists is because of the excess CO2 emitted by the human consumption of fossil fuel.
Humans have increased the content of this carbon dioxide gas in our atmosphere some 30% since the beginning of the industrial revolution. Large quantities of CO2 are produced by lime kilns, which burn limestone (primarily calcium carbonate) to produce calcium oxide ( lime, used to make cement); and in the production of magnesium from dolomite (calcium magnesium carbonate). Other industrial activities which produce large amounts of carbon dioxide are ammonia production and hydrogen production from natural gas or other hydrocarbon raw materials.
Global warming is also the result of an excess of greenhouse gases, by destroying tropical rainforests, which threatens to change climate in an unprecedented manner.. Heat from the sun, reflected back from the earth, is trapped in this thickening layer of gases and global temperatures rise as a result.
Carbon dioxide is constantly being exchanged among the atmosphere, ocean, and land surface as it is both produced and absorbed by many microorganisms, plants, and animals. However, emissions and removal of CO2 by these natural processes tend to balance. Since the Industrial Revolution began around 1750, human activities have contributed substantially to climate change by adding CO2 and other heat-trapping gases to the atmosphere.
Trees have a big role to play in life on earth. Its very common that trees absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, convert it into carbon and oxygen which is stored as carbohydrates and sugar, and release oxygen back into the atmosphere, so they act as the earth's lungs and purify the atmosphere.
In addition, the ratio of oxygen to nitrogen in the atmosphere has declined as CO2 has increased; this is as expected because oxygen is depleted when fossil fuels are burned. The Southern Ocean is the largest of these ocean carbon sinks, soaking up about 40 percent of mankind's CO2 absorbed by the seas.
Alone we can not solve the problem but as a team we can do so much more to save the planet. Actually the planet will recover. Its us we are saving.

Tonight on "Dancing With the Stars" 2014 fans got to see Danica McKellar from "The Wonder Years." There are always rumors about "DWTS" romance so this made fans start wondering who she was married to or if she is single. On March 17, Bustle shared the news about her love life.
She was actually married to a music composer. His name is Mike Verta. They did just get married in 2009 but dated for 8 years first. Back in 2012, the two actually got a divorce and are no longer together. Their divorce has been final right at a year.
Danica is now single and looking for love. She could end up finding it this season because she is with Val Chmerkovskiy. Rumors flew that he was dating Kelly Monaco when they were partners, but if they were it seems like the two may have split since. Both say they are single at this time.
Don't miss "Dancing With the Stars" on Monday night on ABC.

UPDATE: AppCertain is no longer available as the company decided not to continue with the service. Luckily there are plenty of alternatives. Take a look:
Parental Control tools for phones, computers and tablets – a comprehensive list – many of these have features similar to App Certain
By now you've heard about all the latest and greatest apps, from Instagram and Kik to the new 6-second video sharing site called Vine. And you've wondered: are my kids using those apps? If you've got younger children you might have restricted them from downloading apps, or you've set them up with your Apple ID so they need you, keeper of the password, when they're ready to try out a new game. However, if your kids are older or you haven't set up these safeguards, it could be anything goes in the App Store. That's the kind of situation where AppCertain could be your new friend.
What is AppCertain and how does it help monitor apps?
AppCertain is a free app monitoring service that notifies you each time a new app is downloaded onto your child's iDevice. The service will also let you know some important details about the app:
- Does the app use location tracking?
- Does the app have in-app purchases?
- Does the app have ads? (Many free apps use ads to generate revenue.)
- Does the app have any educational value?
- How much did the app cost?
This is valuable information that you might not detect by just looking at your child's device and perusing the apps. For example, if an app allows for in-app purchases, you can check to make sure you have set up restrictions to prevent in-app purchases on the device. If the app has ads, are they appropriate for your child's age group? (I've seen ads for dating sites in a popular word game app!)
How it works
AppCertain uses something called a "security profile" to detect new apps. First you download the AppCertain app onto the device (iPad, iPod Touch or iPhone) you want to monitor. Then the app installs a security profile to detect apps. The security profile only collects the bare minimum of information needed to provide the service. They do not collect "contacts, the device's location, your child's email, or any data of other apps." Their privacy policy states "We use the ID of the device for security purposes to ensure no one else can see the list of apps installed." Once you have installed the service, you can safely remove the app from your curious child's device; the service will continue to monitor what apps get installed.
When a new app is detected, you get an e-mail. Here's a sample e-mail I received after installing a few new apps on my iPhone:
Now if this had been something my daughter had downloaded, I would want to take a closer look. Since she is too young (says me) for Facebook and Twitter I'd be sure she was not connected to those services, and find out more about the in-app purchases available in the app.
Multi-device tracking
AppCertain tells me that this is something they are working on. Yea! You can now track more than one device. You can purchase additional devices as in-app purchases for a one time cost of $4.99. I think this is a small price to pay for the peace of mind of knowing what your kids are installing. And, AppCertain is providing Be Web Smart readers with an extra device for free! Once you've installed AppCertain on one device, just email firstname.lastname@example.com with the code WebSmart713 and your AppCertain account email.
Monitoring is only the first step
So if you're looking to get a better handle on the apps your child is using, AppCertain is a useful tool. As with any monitoring tool, it is not a replacement for open and honest communication with your child. (AppCertain or any monitoring service should not be looked at as "spying" – in fact AppCertain suggests you let your child know you are tracking their apps.) But by using these tools you have a great way to get a conversation started about the apps, games and online activities your child is involved in.

Gasoline: Small improvements
Ford's small cars will feature fewer cylinders to improve fuel consumption but its engineers will have to work hard on maintaining performance and refinement
Spark ignition engines are beginning to close the gap on diesels, thanks to turbocharging and gasoline direct injection (GDI). If OEMs can cut CO2 but keep costs below those of compression ignition units they'll make a big difference to fleet average carbon dioxide emissions.
Ford is rolling out its 1.6- and 2-litre GDI turbos globally in applications such as the C-segment Focus and D-segment Mondeo. Now the OEM is turning its attention to the small-car segments. These are becoming increasingly popular as consumers downsize. These vehicles need more efficient engines too.
"The main thrust now is the 1-litre three-cylinder – that's my team's big programme for this year," says Andrew Fraser, Ford's manager for gasoline powertrain development and integration. "It's the first time we've done a three-cylinder engine so there's a lot of learning just from the fact that it's got three cylinders instead of four.
"The combustion system is virtually the same as the 1.6 – centrally mounted direct injection, dual variable camshaft timing and turbocharging – but the base engine architecture is new. There's no sharing."
NVH is one of the biggest challenges – Fraser says that consumers don't expect any loss in refinement. Meeting those demands will be tough.
Vibration is the main issue. Balancer shafts are the most effective way to mitigate it but add weight, friction and cost and take up valuable packaging space. Optimising the powertrain mounting system can be effective too – Ford is evaluating both of these measures.
The turbochargers Ford will use will be conventional. Nothing as radical as variable turbine geometry, Fraser says, just heavily optimised and making the most of the three cylinders' widely spaced exhaust gas pulsations: "It's good for the scavenging effect – you can use more valve overlap without pulse interference."
A more complex valvetrain would help too, but the benefits must be balanced against cost. Fraser is a fan of Fiat's Multiair variable valvelift system and says that Ford is looking at similar technology too but that, for now, the focus is on getting the most from dual cam phasing.
Integrated exhaust manifolds are another technology that could improve efficiency, response and warm-up times. Audi's latest 1.8-litre engine has one. Other OEMs will follow.
"They're definitely coming in the future," says Fraser. "It's a particularly good feature because you've got to bring the exhaust ports together in a short distance and link them to the turbocharger. And you recover a lot of heat in the coolant which cuts down the time for the engine to reach operating temperature."
Ever more stringent emissions regulations mean that powertrain engineers will always have work to do but the main technical challenges ahead in gasoline development, says Fraser, come from downsizing.
Engines that can deliver the very high brake mean effective pressures – as much as 30bar – required for high torque ratings at low engine speeds will require a lot more R&D effort in managing the combustion process to avoid knock. And turbos which supply enough boost for that won't be optimised for transient response. Ford is working on a project with development firm Ricardo to apply a 12V electric supercharger from supplier Controlled Power Technologies to a 1-litre turbocharged engine.
"You only need the bottom-end response for a couple of seconds so you don't want to pay too much for it or lose much fuel efficiency to deliver it," says Fraser. "You can recover the energy required to drive the supercharger through regenerative braking."
The supercharger is only needed for a second or two after tip in, so energy consumption is relatively low. It recovers some of that through regenerative braking.
The technology won't appear in Ford's first-generation three-cylinders because its smaller, lighter vehicles won't need it. If the technology worked successfully in the Focus the four-cylinder engine's days could be numbered there too.
Three-cylinders could have a big future at Ford.

A few weeks ago, Tarina Tarantino breezed into Sephora on South Beach to introduce South Florida to her new Tarina Tarantino Beauty Collection. Fans gathered, both to catch a glimpse of the pink haired beauty, as well as try the products.
Some were a bit leery, not sure whether a jewelry designer could successfully make the transition from sparkly baubles to cosmetics. The displays beckoned the doubters over, and once tested, they relaxed. The Collection does not disappoint. This Examiner highly recommends the Gem Gloss for lips and the Sparklicity Shimmer Dust.
We also got to spend a few minutes with Tarina and her husband, Alfonso Campos. Here's what she had to say:
I love Florida. The Florida girls "get it." Why? Obviously, there's a very colorful culture here. And the women of South Florida LOVE to accessorize.
I was a makeup artist and had to stop doing makeup when my jewelry took off. But makeup was my first love. So when Sephora offered to carry my new line exclusively, a partnership was born.
When asked what would be coming up next for Tarina Tarantino, she intimated that she was looking to open a store here in South Florida, but that she was also interested in lines of home accessories, sunglasses, and shoes. She even hinted that there may be a television show on the horizon.
While Sephora carries Tarina Tarantino Beauty products exclusively, her jewelry can be purchased locally at the Fontainebleau Resort, Miss Katie's Charm School, LuLu, Nordstrom-Dadeland Mall, and Snappy Turtle.

On January 29, it was announced that Little Big Town has earned a 2014 ACM Awards nomination for Vocal Group of the Year. As in the past few years, the Academy of Country Music employed celebrity guests to announce the nominees via Facebook and Twitter.
Little Big Town is the reigning ACM Vocal Group of the Year. Much of their success is due to their Platinum album "Tornado," which yielded the multi-award winning song "Pontoon," as well as the successful follow up title track.
The album "Tornado" is a testament to Little Big Town's harmonies, but also their ability to choose, and then perfectly execute songs that take their listeners on journeys through many kinds of stories and emotions. From the fun-loving attitude of "Pontoon" to the anger-filled "Tornado" and the poignant "Your Side of the Bed," Little Big Town has a gift for pulling their listeners into their tales and making them feel like they belong there.
Little Big Town has definitely hit their stride in recent years, but they will have some equally talented competition for the 2014 ACMs. Zac Brown Band, Lady Antebellum, Eli Young Band and The Band Perry are also nominated.
The ACM Awards will be broadcast live from Las Vegas on April 6 on CBS.

Police Car
The Police Car is an emergency services vehicle used by police officers. The cars begin to chase the protagonist of each Grand Theft Auto game when they have received either a police head or wanted star. In Grand Theft Auto 2, it's the only car in the game which gives a Cop Bribe when crushed.
As a collector's note, activate the "Black Traffic" cheat to make the Police Car all black. This causes the car to look somewhat like an unmarked patrol car.
Throughout all GTA III era games, it is very fast with excellent handling, used to catch up to criminals and shoot them on sight, rather than arresting them. Its durability, however, isn't very high. By getting in the Police Car, the player will receive 5 ammunition rounds of Shotgun.
In GTA IV, there are two similar but separate police cars - the Police Patrol and Police Cruiser. The player can get in any police car and access the in-car computer while stationary. Here, the player can look at the most wanted lists and then track down criminals. If the sirens are shot too many times, or crushed, the sound will become distorted. The player can also dial 911 to summon the police car either by requiring assistance, or by luring into a false alarm.

Upon vacationing in Chicago, this Detroiter took Uber, the personal taxi service app, for a test ride. Using public transportation in any city always poses a bit of in trepidation. However, I found Uber to be less stressful than simply hailing a standard cab for several reasons. Uber is about 20 percent cheaper, more user friendly than most taxis, and typically more reliable.
Start your test ride by following three simple steps. But before doing so, either sign up via the Web for an immediate $30 discount code or search Google for one of several first free or up to $30 first time Uber usage discounts.
- Just point your smartphone to download the free Uber app via the Google Play or the Apple App Store.
- Enter your credit card information as well as your cell phone number, your initial ride discount code, and a valid email address. You will then receive a confirmation text.
- Check your text, reply with the word "Go" and your account is confirmed!
The handy little app packs a powerful GPS punch. Once you are an official member, you'll see any visible Uber approved cars meandering in your neck of the woods. Submit a pick up request by simply denoting your final destination. The app will then tell you how many minutes until a prospective Uber taxi may pick you up. You should then get a phone call to confirm your pick. You can tell the Uber driver what side of the street you are on, etc.
Uber drivers must report to a face-to-face Uber location in order to be approved and like most app services, you as well as the driver can rate the experience. For example, if you request a Uber taxi and you decide not to go on several occasions, your prospective Uber passenger rating could likely be lowered. On the other hand, if the Uber driver provides you with less than optimal or a polite experience, you can rate that driver.
Unfortunately, Uber does not yet allow users to see their passenger rating. Several blogs offer possible solutions. No matter, why would anyone feel his or her Uber driver would rate them so poorly anyhow? Really, you might be able to buy your Uber driver a hotdog to see his or her report on you, but no worries.
Detroiters, get online ride quotes before you decide. After two or three rides you'll be a Uber expert. Perhaps you may agree compared to the old Taxi standby, Uber is the only way to go.

Box Score
STOCKTON, Calif. – Playing for the final time in the Spanos Center, the No. 8 Stanford men's volleyball team swept Pacific (25-18, 26-24, 25-17), Wednesday, in Stockton, Calif. The Cardinal improves to 8-4 overall and 5-4 in the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation, while the Tigers drop to 2-10 on the year and 1-8 in conference.
"I thought we came out and played well tonight," said head coach John Kosty. "[Brian] Cook and [Steven] Irvin led us tonight. They put up some really solid numbers. I think the thing that stood out for us was our serving. These are the types of outings we need to have to be successful in the MPSF."
As a team, Stanford hit .271 and registered 12 service aces while holding Pacific to a .203 hitting percentage. Six of the Cardinal's aces came by senior Steven Irvin, tying his career high.
Senior outside hitter Brian Cook led the Cardinal with 17 kills on a .343 attack percentage to go with eight digs, three blocks and two aces. His 17 kills were the most in a three-set match by a Stanford player this season.
"Brian has come out with a determination over the last couple of matches," said Kosty. "It is great to see him continue to elevate his play. He has shown his leadership and the ability to take over a match."
Irvin added 11 kills on a .556 hitting percentage, while senior opposite Eric Mochalski finished with seven kills, six digs and three aces. Sophomore setter James Shaw controlled the offense with 32 assists and recorded a match-high nine digs.
"I thought James Shaw set a really nice match tonight. He did the things he needed to do to get nine digs out of the back row. He set a really nice match and distributed the ball really well," added Kosty.
Pacific, which will no longer support a men's volleyball program after this season, was led by Christian Franceschi's 15 kills and a .406 hitting percentage. The Tigers out blocked the Cardinal 12.5 to 5.5.
Stanford returns to Maples Pavilion on Saturday, Feb. 15 to take on No. 4 BYU. The match against the Cougars will be televised live on the Pac-12 Networks at 7 p.m. PT.

JavaFX Mobile ships
By octav on Feb 11, 2009
The Eran Davidov show is now coming to a mobile device near you. In other words, the JavaFX team at Sun has delivered JavaFX Mobile. The JavaFX platform enables the development and deployment of rich and expressive content and services to end-users across desktop, mobile, browser and TV (due later on this year). This release follows the December '08 shipment of JavaFX 1.0 for desktop.
The bits are out, the website has been updated. Web / Java / ME developers and technical designers have the opportunity to get the new update to the SDK, (NetBeans) tools bundle, production suite, samples, etc. JavaFX Mobile builds on top of JavaME to leverage the most widely deployed and feature rich platform in the industry.
The whole engineering (dev, qe, docs, HIE) team has executed nicely. I am especially grateful to Eran, the product release boss and valiant leader. Ken, Laurie, Nandini, Arindam, Brian and John (to name just a few) have provided key contributions. Another proud moment.

T.I. is going to be a free man in just a couple of days. Sources have confirmed that the Atlanta rapper, currently serving an 11-month sentence in Forrest City Correctional Facility in Arkansas for a parole violation after an L.A. drug arrest, will be released to a halfway house on August 31. Tip will be walking out of jail about a month early, with his original release date listed as September 29 in public records.
The Grand Hustle honcho, born Clifford Harris, Jr., should be ready to get back to the business of making music soon after his release.
T.I.'s Smash company partner, producer La Mar "Mars" Edwards, is eager to reunite with Tip in the studio. "He let me know, 'I got your back and stay close to me, you're my brother,' " said Mars, who just produced Game's The R.E.D. Album. "Ever since then, he's really treated me like a little brother. He'll call me to talk about life. It's more to it than me being his production partner and having Smash Factory."
And T.I.'s friend and collaborator DJ Drama also recently revealed that T.I. is working on a book. "8/31 — #kingback. @Tip," Drama tweeted on Monday (August 29).
While serving his sentence, the King has been keeping fans updated via his TrapMuzik.com website. In his latest entry, the "Live Your Life"
rapper revealed that it would be his final blog post since he expected to be released in September.
In that message, T.I. revealed that he planned to have his new music hearken back to material from his earlier days. "Next time you hear from me, I'll be back out there with you," he wrote. "Doing for those who can't do for themselves and speaking for those whose voices are never heard. When I touch down, I'm going all the way back to square one, like I'm fresh in the game and never sold a record. Back on some I'M SERIOUS, TRAP MUZIK sh–. … But until then RESPECT to all who deserve it."
The well-wishes he received from family, friends and fans inspired T.I. to sponsor a Memorial Day bus trip that brought the families of 14 inmates up for a visit who otherwise would not be able to.
Although authorities in Los Angeles eventually dropped the drug charges against T.I., he was still found guilt of violating the parole terms stemming from his 2007 felony weapons charge.

News from Unity
After three decades of leadership to Unity Health System and the former St. Mary's Hospital, President of the Health Care Services Division Stewart Putnam announced his retirement today. Putnam will retire on March 7.
Beginning January 15 until his retirement date, Putnam will serve as special advisor to Warren Hern, President and CEO, to lend his support in partnership-related activities.
During his time at Unity, Putnam has served for the past two years as President, Health Care Services Division, and for 15 years as Executive Vice President. He has helped transform Unity into a top-quality hospital, attract and retain the best physicians, and guide modernization and expansion efforts to create what is virtually a brand new hospital.
Putnam played a crucial role in the formation of Unity Health System as President and Chief Executive Officer of St. Mary's Hospital. He was instrumental in creating the successful affiliation that restructured Park Ridge Health System and St. Mary's Hospital to become Unity, and transformed St. Mary's from an acute care facility to the first-of-its-kind, award-winning community health campus that it is today.
Putnam joined St. Mary's Hospital in 1984 and served in a variety of administrative roles prior to his appointment as CEO. His accomplishments include the development of a range of community services in inner city Rochester, for which St. Mary's received the prestigious Foster G. McGaw prize in 1996.
He is active on several community boards, and, notably, is chair-elect of the national board of the Alzheimer's Association. He will become chair of the national board of the Alzheimer's Association in October 2014 for a two-year term.
"I am thankful to Stewart for his significant role in shaping what Unity has become today, and will be in the future," said Hern.
Doug Stewart, Senior Vice President of the Health Care Services Division at Unity, has been appointed to Putnam's position effective January 15.
Doug Stewart joined Unity in 2005 as Vice President, Behavioral Health and has overseen operations of inpatient, ambulatory and support services at Unity Hospital since 2012.

Could you please help me to prove the inequality probability as follows: $\Pr\{X+Y<t\} \le \Pr\{X<t\} \Pr\{Y<t\}$ where $X$ and $Y$ are non-negative independent random variables with common distribution. Many thanks for your helps

If $X(\omega)+Y(\omega)<t$, since $X(\omega)\geq 0$ we have $Y(\omega)<t$ and since $Y(\omega)\geq 0$ we have $X(\omega)<t$ so $\{X+Y<t\}\subset \{X<t\}\cap \{Y\cap t\}$ and taking the probabilities, thanks to independence $$P(\{X+Y<t\})\leq P(\{X<t\}\cap \{Y<t\})=P(\{X<t\})\cdot P(\{Y<t\}).$$ Note that the fact that $X$ and $Y$ have the same distribution wasn't used.
This is my answer for your question.
Since X and Y are independent, so we have $$\mathbb{P}(X+Y< t)=\int_{0}^{t}\mathbb{P}(Y< t-u)\mathbb{P}(X\in du).$$
On the other hand, $\{Y< t-u\}\subset\{Y< t\}$ this implies $$\mathbb{P}(Y<t-u)\leq \mathbb{P}(Y<t).$$ So we obtain $$\mathbb{P}(X+Y< t)\leq\mathbb{P}(Y< t)\int_{0}^{t}\mathbb{P}(X\in du)=\mathbb{P}(Y< t)\mathbb{P}(X< t).$$

Andrew Dees Named Running Backs Coach/Recruiting Coordinator
June 3, 2011
AMHERST, Mass. - UMass Football Coach Kevin Morris announced Friday the hiring of Andrew Dees as the running backs coach and recruiting coordinator. A veteran collegiate coach, Dees has 15 years of experience including the previous five seasons as an assistant coach at Temple University where he served as the Offensive Line/Tight Ends Coach.
"Another great addition to the UMass football staff with the hiring of Andrew Dees. Andrew will serve as our recruiting coordinator and running backs' coach," said Morris.
"Coach Dees' last two coaching stops have been in the Mid-American Conference (MAC) with his coaching experience at Buffalo, and most recently at Temple where he was a major part of the revitalization of that football program. He also had a stellar playing career going from Syracuse to the NFL."
Dees graduated from Syracuse in 1992 where he was a captain as a senior and helped the Orange to four bowl game appearances. He played for Cincinnati and Seattle following graduation.
"Andrew and I worked together at Stony Brook," Morris continued. "I am excited about the wealth of football knowledge, energy and recruiting expertise he brings to the staff."
The pair spent the 1999 campaign together at Stony Brook where Morris served as the offensive coordinator and Dees coached the offensive line and was the recruiting coordinator.
During his tenure at Temple, Dees, 41, helped the Owls to a 17-8 record over the last two seasons highlighted by the 2009 appearance in the EagleBank Bowl against UCLA and a first-place tie in the MAC East.
That same season, Dees was a finalist for the 2009 Offensive Line Coach of the Year by FootballScoop as a school-record five offensive players were named All-MAC, including four linemen.
In the spring of 2008, Dees took over coaching the entire offensive line after having instructed the tackles and tight ends for the previous two seasons. That year, his offensive line helped the Owls to their most wins in nearly two decades. The Owls out-scored their opponents for the season for the first time since 1990.
All told, his five years in Philadelphia corresponded with four of the most successful consecutive seasons for the Owls in the last 25 years.
Before his arrival at Temple, Dees spent five seasons as tight ends coach at MAC opponent Buffalo.
At Buffalo, Dees assisted with all aspects of the run and pass game and was responsible for the extra point and field goal units under head coach Jim Hofher. The team's pro liaison, he recruited in New York, Maryland, Washington, D.C., Pennsylvania, and Southern New Jersey. Under his direction, tight end Chad Bartoszek became the Bulls' first two-time All-MAC selection (2001-02). During his stay in the Queen City from 2001 to 2005, Dees also performed two NFL Minority Fellowship summer coaching internships, serving with Pittsburgh in 2005 and with Miami in 2004.
Dees was the offensive line coach and recruiting coordinator at Stony Brook from 1998 to 2000. In the position, he organized the run game as well as the pass protection and other specific aspects pertaining to the offensive line, tight ends and running backs. He coached three all-conference players.
Additionally Dees served NFL Minority Fellowship summer coaching internships with Buffalo in 2000, New Orleans in 2007, and Philadelphia in 2007.
Dees began his coaching career as offensive and defensive line coach at Saint John the Baptist High School in West Islip, N.Y. in 1996 before serving as the graduate assistant and tight ends coach at Wagner College for one season in 1997.
Dees was a four-year letterwinner at Syracuse from 1988-91, helping the Orange to a 35-12-2 record and four straight bowl appearances under head coaches Dick MacPherson (1988-90) and Paul Pasqualoni (1991). A three-year starter for the Orange, he spent the first two as a tight end and his final year at offensive tackle. He was named a Preseason All-American by The Sporting News in 1990. As a senior, he was elected team captain and helped lead SU to a 10-2 record, a Hall of Fame bowl victory over Ohio State and a No. 11 ranking in the final polls. After graduation, he spent the 1992 season with the Cincinnati Bengals and the 1993 campaign with the Seattle Seahawks.
A native of Babylon, N.Y., Dees earned his bachelor's degree in child and family studies from Syracuse in 1992. He is due to complete his coursework toward a master's of special education from Wagner. He is married to the former Kimberly Falkner. They have two children, Drew and Kara.

Biliary or sludge from the gall bladder is some thing not many people know about and we will make an effort to explain slightly much more about this. It could be described as a mixture of crystals, salt and mucous within the bile. There are extremely little signs or symptoms related with gall bladder sludge but it may be associated with fast fat loss, using some medications and becoming pregnant. The truth is if any symptoms appear they are normally associated with gallstones, gallbladder inflammation or blockage of the gall bladder. When you have any concerns ant really feel any of the signs you ought to talk to your physician.
There is a answer for his dilemma in change of your diet. It is best to start off eating food rich in fibers and healthy non-saturated fats. It is best to also start off consuming lots of fresh fruit and fresh vegetables to be able to avoid the development of sludge from the gallbladder. Foodstuff rich in bad cholesterol have to be avoided. Bad cholesterol rich food overloads the gallbladder since it must digest a substantial level of extra fat and that calls for much more gallbladder sludge to be created.
Spreading your daily meals over the day and eating smaller portions of foods is among the greatest suggestions connected with food. You must try this tip simply because the gall bladder forms bile which assists in the foodstuff digestion and this way we avoid the bile to get saved within the gallbladder a bit longer.
Taking good care and sustaining your own bodyweight at optimal stages is crucial factor within the prevention of gall bladder issues. Gallbladder sludge is frequently discovered in individuals experiencing bodyweight issues. Decrease the amount of calories in your day-to-day diet and also be more physically lively in order to eliminate a couple pounds and it is going to be helpful for your well being and gallbladder condition. Also stay away from shedding pounds too fast because then you will discover probabilities for gall stones to begin developing. If it can be necessary to burn fat speedily than you are able to visit your doctor to provide you with remedies which stop the creation of gall stones.
If you knowledge undesired signs and symptoms soon after you've got tried every advice we have supplied it is a good idea to consult your physician and see if it truly is vital to eliminate your gall bladder. If it's essential your physician will suggest a gall bladder surgery. It can be very good to know that the gall bladder isn't inside the group of vital body parts and our body can function commonly with out it. If the gallbladder is removed then the liver got its performance and starts making larger levels of bile to process food far more very easily. All of the signs will disappear immediately after the gall bladder surgical procedure and it is possible to commence living your own life once again without having pain. You only have to change your consuming habits a little.
My dad was really jaundiced when he had his emergency gallbladder surgery.
def not gallbladder....i need to get mine removed and if it were your gallbladder you'd be beggin for a pulled muscle lol

Read what SPS Board candidates have to say about the Creative Advantage K-12 arts plan, and how they plan to support arts education in general. Check out what they have to say below.
Election Day is around the corner and hundreds of School Board positions will be filled across the state. District school boards are incredibly important, often determining the extent to which students have access to arts education. Before you vote, get vital information about which candidates are committed to providing the high quality, sequential arts learning that every student deserves and that the law requires.
Arts and education advocates throughout the state asked their School Board Candidates to complete ArtsEd Washington's Survey on Arts Education so that voters can make informed decisions when casting their ballots this fall.
Candidates in over 34 districts have responded so far to share their thoughts on arts education See what your candidates said by visiting ArtsEd Washington's website at www.artsedwashington.org/candidate_responses.

To date, the effectiveness of psychotherapy for the treatment of most mental disorders is empirically well documented. From an "evidence-based medicine" viewpoint, psychotherapy, as compared to other treatments in medicine, can be regarded as one of the most effective therapeutic approaches. The superiority of psychotherapy over pharmacotherapy is particularly pronounced in long-term treatment outcome studies. It is especially cognitive behavioral approaches, such as exposure response management and cognitive restructuring that have shown strong evidence of their efficacy and effectiveness in various populations and settings. However, evidence-based medicine is by definition oriented toward the past, as it only informs us about the well-established, empirically supported treatments. If we rely only on the currently available scientific evidence, new developments will be blocked. Since, for instance, many patients decline treatment, or do not seek professional help at all, there is a need for improvements regarding acceptance of established therapies. In addition, there ought to be scope for new, creative approaches, for which scientific evidence is not yet available. Promising developments include the mindfulness-based therapies, well-being therapy, the use of cognitive enhancers such as D-cycloserine, and Web-based therapies. There is also a trend in psychotherapy training toward teaching specific, disorder-oriented protocols or modules rather than universally applicable therapies. Finally, given the globalization of our societies, culture-sensitive psychotherapists should try to understand the cultural components of a patient's illness and help-seeking behaviors, as well as their expectations with regard to treatment.

When [artist id="1098″]Madonna[/artist] calls, you answer.
The Queen of Pop rang up [artist id="1163841″]Cee Lo Green[/artist] several months back about performing "Like a Prayer" during the Super Bowl halftime show , and he didn't give it a second thought.
"I was asked — cordially invited — by Madonna to be a part of it and, of course, very eagerly obliged. So it was basically as simple as that," he told MTV News late Monday about the eye-catching gig, which included a dazzling light show, loads of dancers and fellow guests LMFAO, Nicki Minaj and M.I.A.
"It was kind of like a no-brainer. Working with Madonna is a very simple process," he added. "She's a very hard worker, quite the perfectionist, and we worked awfully hard for that entire 12-minute performance to be as close to perfection as possible."
With 100 million-plus viewers tuning in to the game and halftime show, it was no doubt the biggest audience Cee Lo and company had ever performed in front of. But everyone was so ready for anything that there was very little room for error or time to be nervous, Cee Lo told us.
"In our line of business and at this point of my career, I think I'm as prepared as you can be," he said. "I'm most certainly poised to be in that place, in this place. It's where we rehearsed, so well in advance, that it becomes a second nature."
Cee Lo cited the professionalism of Madge and the entire crew for the performance going off without a hitch. "The technicalities of it are just amazing," he said. "[It was] such a large crew that really helped. Without their tenacity and their know-how, it could not be done. It would be impossible. So I must commend the entire crew. Technically it takes an entire team to make something like that a success."
Fashion also played a big part in the performance. While Madonna was sporting looks by Givenchy, Cee Lo's black, sequined choir robe was a design all his own.
"They tease and they call me 'Reverend Green' and 'Preacher Green,' so I had a couple of those robes made just for fun," he explained. "I mean, you know me, I'm still the same, you know, known for my sense of style, so on and so forth. And when the nature of the performance was discussed and they were saying, 'We're gonna do "Like a Prayer" and everyone will be in robes,' and they were looking for my measurements to see if they were going to have to make me one, and I was like, 'What do you mean? I have my own already!' So she was pretty touched by that. I brought a lot of myself."
What did you think of Cee Lo's contribution to the halftime show? Let us know in the comments!

The anthropic principle has become a very popular explanation among theoretical physicists lately. Life is unlikely, but only life can observe, so we find ourselves in an unlikely position, so to speak. What I would like to ask is just how unlikely is life? Is the evolution of life generic for most laws of physics, or extremely unlikely with extreme fine-tuning? What is so controversial about the anthropic principle? No one is surprised to find themselves on an Earth-like planet orbiting a long lived star at just about the right distance from the star with plenty of liquid water, a thick atmosphere and plenty of carbon amidst the sterile antiseptic reaches of space. What are the major pros and cons? String theory conveniently provides a multiverse and a landscape.
i don't think the cons are meaningful, at least in two ways.
1) the anthropic principle does not stop people in the spot to think about these issues. If people discover good reasons why the universe is special (or seems to be), no amount of anthropic principle will make those reason vanish (assuming they are really good)
2) as a fan of modal realism* i think the anthropic principle is an unavoidable fact of existence. We are by construction on a special frame of reference; for instance, the odds of life evolving near the big bang are negligible. The combined viewpoint of anthropic principle and modal realism is akin to the copernican revolution coming from a ptolemaic dogma: Although in this case, there is no way that we can elucidate these questions with observations.
*(the idea that there is no substantial difference between possible universes (in a mathematical sense) and "real" universes; the former will also have entities that might ask themselves big questions.)
Any string theorist who is not in massive denial and hiding their heads in the sand knows that string theory predicts an exponentially large landscape of stable and metastable compactifications. That much is an objective fact of string theory. Any string theorist worth their salt also knows a generic inflationary state leads to chaotic inflation, and given some likely conditions eternal inflation. Some parts decay to a lower energy compactification, but those which don't inflate exponentially faster to more than compensate. Combine eternal inflation starting from some metastable state with a Planck sized vacuum energy with the landscape, and a multiverse is an inevitable result. Most bubbles are not hospitable to life but it is tautological that observers will always find themselves in a bubble which is just right for life.
The multiverse explanation of the anthropic principle is actually a prediction of string theory, and any string theorist not too chicken to face reality will realize this simple truth.
What exactly is it being selected for in the anthropic principle? Conscious observers, but what is consciousness? Intelligent life, but why not nonintelligent life? Humans specifically, but why not some other intelligent lifeform? Why isn't a planet of apes only but no humans enough? Anyone wishing to take the anthropic principle seriously has to explain why we humans lie on the side of selection. Evolutionarily speaking, a universe with a planet of only apes is far more likely than a universe with a planet containing humans. Why aren't neanderthals or hunter gatherers enough? According to neo-darwinism, progressive evolution is never inevitable. Is it because of the higher population growth afforded by advanced technology, but even with a factor of a million in additional population, might it be that less than every one in a million planets with neanderthal level intelligence leads to intelligence advanced enough to cause extreme population growth?
The often stated claim that the anthropic principle makes no concrete predictions is a BALD FACED LIE propagated by detractors hoping to smear the good name of the anthropic priciple. Hoyle predicted a carbon nuclear resonance at a particular energy level because that is what is needed for nucleosynthesis of the heavier elements, and we turned out to be right. Weinberg predicted the correct order of magnitude for the cosmological constant at a time when almost everyone thought it was exactly zero.
The anthropic principle has many "flavors" but they have in common the basic observation that many characteristics of our universe appear to be uniquely suited - some would say "designed" for humankind. While there are indeed strong patterns and high levels of directionality to be found in nature, particularly in the fields of biology and chemistry, they are general evolutionary trends on which our species happens to be on one part of a very long pathway.
Rather than being the product of some kind of "creator" they are simply features of the way the wonderful machinery of nature happens to work.
See my recent book "The Goldilocks Effect: What Has Serendipity Ever Done For Us?" (free download in e-book formats from the "Unusual Perspectives" website) for more info on this broad evolutionary model.
If the anthropic principle were true, we humans will be the meaning and purpose of the universe. No longer will we be accidental inessential insignificant beings in an indifferent meaningless purposeless universe. We will be at the heart of the universe itself. We will be of utmost importance. Our lives will have cosmic significance.

With the Nationals optioning of four players to Syracuse and reassigning three more to minor-league camp, that's my sign that it's time to shift gears away from spring training coverage.
This is not to state that I won't be watching with some interest to see if one of "our guys" will buck the odds and make the Opening Day roster for the final spot on the bench or the last reliever out of 'pen. I just won't necessarily be writing every day unless there's a strong minor-league angle to it.
So we're back to the offseason mode, but instead of months to while away, it's just a couple of weeks. "Our" opening day is April 3rd, with the Chiefs and Suns opening at home, and the Sens and P-Nats opening on the road. The daily "News & Notes" begin the following day, with the goal of giving you a summary and highlights from the games with a little style and a little snark.
Potomac — where I'm a season-ticket holder — starts on the 8th, and with it, comes game coverage via "Last Night In Woodbridge."
Later on in April, "Good, Bad, Interesting" returns — the weekly feature that lists the highs and lows and the unexpected for each affiliate.
So hold on, spring has begun (officially today) and the 2014 season is almost here.
12 Responses to "Shifting Gears"
The season hasn't officially started until GBI makes its debut!
I'm waiting for it to become the good, bad, and indifferent.
but be nice if it were the good, the bad, and the bulldog. 😉
Apparently, Erik Komatsu is finally back. I'll be interested to see what happens there and whether he makes the team in Syracuse.
But Bradley Meyers is still in a throwing program so he probably will end up on the DL to start the season.
"MLB.com's Bill Ladson tweets that the Nationals have released minor leaguers Clay Hensley, Kyle Attl, Taylor Wrenn, Drew Rossi, Casey Selsor, Greg Holt and Martires Arias."
Have to admit, I don't know these guys at all.
Neither do I! Welcome to the club!
BTW, Walters numbers for the spring, now that he's been sent down, was an OPS of 1,000+.
Looks like the non-hitting Espinosa has made the club.
But wait! Souldrummer is *not*shifting away from camp! He is in Viera and he's on the loose. He will be interviewing (probably off the record sadly) members of the Nationals community for a narrative story to come out no later than Monday night on his experiences. So far,I've interviewed Johnny Holiday (informally he's staying in our hotel) and Garrett Gordon's grandfather (informally, he too is at our hotel). Don't know who Garrett Gordon is? Google it! Anyways, if you follow me at @souldrummer25 and direct message me a reasonable question to a reasonable member of the Nats minors community in Viera, I'll try to ask it! I plan to ask the players about their at bat music for a playlist I'm working for it. If you ask me to interview Giolito, I'll probably veto it. But if you ask me a question about the 40th round pick from 2009 who is barely hanging on in baseball and could use any possible publicity, I'll do my best! I should be camp from about 10am-12:30pm depending on whether my brother the trip leader decides whether he wants to see the Nats away at St. Louis today. He probably will because our Spring Training trip as been hijacked by the St. Louis Billikens and the [unnamed university] Club of Central Florida that just so happened to celebrate beating its foe yesterday.
For those who are not twitter inclined, I will try to answer questions posted in the comments on nationalsprospects.com as well. But come on! It's worth following me on general principle!
Selsor and Holt pitched for affiliates last year, and both releases kind of surprise me. Selsor's numbers weren't great (0-6, 4.29 ERA) but his babip was high and thus his FIP was low; I figured he'd be in Hagerstown's bullpen. Holt makes even less sense: 9-0 with a 3.71 ERA in 70+ innings for Potomac last year; is he hurt? I thought for sure he was in line for a promotion, not a release. Odd moves. Maybe just an indicator of the massive number of pitchers the team has on its payroll in the lower minors…
Its becoming harder for Rizzo to move pitcher for the premiums he expects. Last season they release Trevor Holder and he was due for a promotion? It'd be nice to get SoulDrummer and/or Byron Kerr to talk to Harris and Scialba about their criteria on what constitutes a hopeful prospect with a good ceiling and one that does not? But that's probably too much to ask.
Still Tampa Bay seems very happy with Nate Karns based on what I've read. They optioned him to AAA but Maddon expects him to be of enormous help to the big club.

Analholic director Skeeter Kerkove is at it again with this release: His usual love for having PVC-clad honeys getting their buttholes stretched is proudly on display. It's not that different from his other efforts but still a good night out overall.
The best scene is Taylor Rain's closer with Mark Wood. From the editing, it looks like the anal going was rough at first, but the two have real chemistry and it's passionate. It's very hot stuff with Rain gaping like the pro she is.
Lil Bit More brushes her teeth with the remnants of her anal cream pie, and Jackie Moore's scene with Johnny Thrust is a good one.

One of boxing's most fascinating stars, Mexico native Canelo Alvarez, who at the age of 21 holds a world super welterweight title belt, will be showcased on the all-new HBO feature presentation PORTRAIT OF A FIGHTER: CANELO ALVAREZ, set to premiere tonight in prime time (9:15 p.m. ET/PT) on HBO.
"Portrait of a Fighter" is a new feature designed to strengthen the viewer's connection to prizefighters and explore an aspect of a fighter's backstory that is not typically well known by boxing fans.
HBO air times include:Apr. 12 (9:15 p.m.), 16 (9:45 a.m.), 17 (12:00 a.m.), 19 (2:50 a.m.), 25 (8:15 p.m.), 27 (4:45 p.m.) and 29 (12:45 p.m.).

With loads of talent, a red-hot ring record (39-0-1, 29 KOs), a head of red hair to match, and a healthy sprinkling of freckles and charisma, Canelo Alvarez has captivated a nation since turning pro in 2005. He has also shown a willingness to fight on the big stage and will be putting his 154-pound title on the line for the fourth time when he squares off with future Hall of Famer Sugar Shane Mosley (46-7-1, 39 KOs) on Saturday, May 5 in Las Vegas. The date coincides with the Mexican holiday Cinco de Mayo, historically one of boxing's most popular weekends.

WOW! HBO -- Humbuggery Bullsh*tology Organization -- is phat with da hyperhype. I give it credit for great media manipulation of those muthasuckas born every minute and looking for something to believe in. Oh, YUP! I'm going be watching this piece on the red-headed hype. But I'm just wondering. Hehehehehe! I do jive like that. Yall know me. I'm down with O-P-P!
If a red-headed, superhyped Mexican can bring this much interest, I wonder what type of interest there would be in a blue-eyed, black-skinned, blond-headed pugilist tangling with Canelo?
Hum! Huh! Canelo versus Banelo. That's right! No syet! This Pinoy lives in Los Angeles City, Pampanga, Philippines. And he is just like I discribed above. But he can't fight worth syet. Canelo has the edge on him. But not by far.
Hey Don King, here is your shot! You know da deal! Hehehehe! Sorry TSSU! I just got bore for a sec, and wanted to start some international rivalry jive. Don't call! Hehehe! Canelo first has to get by sorefoot -- I mean Sugarfoot! Danggit! That will be Sugar Shane and that darn wise, ole Genie Naazim. What are they going to do?... Make Canelo's red hair turn purple or blue or sumptin' [sic]! Hehehe! Holla!
red headed bum. mosley is shot. look at the camp pics. goodbye shane. red headed step child will add mosleys scalp to his belt.by tko or ref stops contest. its set up.
Hehehehehe! Deepwater is swimming in deepwaters with the comedy. Holla!
Who will win the Sergey Kovalev vs Andre Ward fight?

This article
contains important information about procedures for handling work related
injuries or illnesses.
Reporting an Accident
Regardless of the
nature or severity, all injuries incurred when on-the-job must be reported to supervision
at once, during the same shift on which the injury occurred.
An accident report titled
Worker's Compensation First Report of
Employee Injury/Illness should be completed by the injured employee's
supervisor and forwarded to the Health Center within twenty-four (24) hours of
the accident's occurrence. The Health
Center FAX number is 765-285-1103. The
accident report form may be found on the BSU website under HR Forms.
If an employee dies,
suffers an amputation, or is admitted to the hospital as a result of an
on-the-job injury, please immediately
report this information 24 hours a day to the Department of Public Safety at
765-285-1111. The university must notify
Public Safety staff
will promptly notify the proper university personnel to ensure a timely report
is made to OSHA.
Medical Treatment
The University Health
Center provides and/or directs the medical care for employees injured on the
job. The Health Center hours are 8:00
a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday, Thursday, and Friday and 9:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday
and Wednesday. During the summer, the
Health Center's hours are 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.
Employees injured
outside of Health Center hours who are in need of immediate medical treatment
but whose injuries are not so severe as to warrant Emergency Room treatment
should be referred to the U.S. HealthWorks medical clinic at 3911 W. Clara
Lane. U.S. Healthworks's hours are 8:00
a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Saturday and
Sunday, except major holidays. Another option
which is available from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. seven days a week is MedExpress
located at 1313 W. McGalliard.
After U.S.
HealthWorks/MedExpress's hours or because of the severity of the injury, IU
Health Ball Memorial Hospital's Emergency Room is open twenty-four (24) hours a
day every day.
The right to direct
the medical treatment of employees injured on-the-job is retained by the university. Therefore, the decision of
when and where to send an employee for medical treatment will be made by the person
in charge of the affected employee's shift based on the nature and extent of
the injury. If an employee is referred outside
of the university for emergency treatment, the person in charge of that shift
who made the referral should leave a voicemail message for Employee Relations
at 765-285-1036 so that the university may begin to manage the worker's
compensation claim and verify worker's compensation coverage when contacted by
the medical provider on the next business day.
In emergency
situations immediately following an on-the-job injury, emergency care is
covered by worker's compensation.
Non-emergency treatment not requested and authorized by the university
is not covered by worker's compensation.
If an employee is
referred outside of the university for emergency treatment, the employee must
follow-up at the University Health Center the next day the Health Center is
open. Although U.S. Healthworks,
MedExpress, or the Emergency Room clinics may advise the employee to return to
their facilities or to the employee's personal physician for follow-up
treatment, such non-emergency visits are not covered by worker's compensation.
If an employee is
injured while on authorized travel outside the Ball State area, he/she may
obtain emergency treatment as needed, but should contact the university as soon
as possible to discuss the situation
Absences from Work
An injured employee
who is sent home by a university physician will be paid out for the remainder
of the workday on a one time basis per injury in Kronos, code the balance of
that work shift as "Injured on Job." Pay
for the next seven (7) calendar days of a worker's compensation absence should
be covered with the employee's accrued paid time off (PTO), vacation, sick, or
compensatory time.
Worker's compensation
temporary total disability (TTD) benefits begin on the 8th calendar
day of disability and the benefit is typically 2/3 of an employee's average
weekly wage (AWW) at the time of injury up to certain maximum limits. If an employee is disabled more than
twenty-one (21) calendar days due to the on-the-job injury, the first seven (7)
calendar days of disability become payable under worker's compensation and an
employee may be reimbursed for a portion of his/her accrued time that was
initially used to cover that first week of disability.
For injuries on the
job that result in a personal serious health condition, the university will
count worker's compensation absences against the employee's leave under the
Contact Us
Questions regarding
worker's compensation or on-the-job injuries should be directed to Angie Gregory at 765-285-1036 or Employee Relations at 765-285-1823.

Rated 4 out of 5 by 3 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Kenshalo Very practical and pretty! Love the color, easy to clean and good size. Thin, it's not heavy like my old cutting board. And I love the nonskid feet. September 26, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by LadyDi13 Pretty and useful I use this cutting board pretty much every day. The color is so pretty, I leave it out on the counter. It's dishwasher safe and cleans up really well. I would definitely recommend this product! April 28, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by LoveMyMares Not As Described I just received two of these boards, and neither have the drainage groove around the edge as described on the website. Probably a manufacturing defect. I am going to keep them because the color is great and they seem sturdy. I will not be cutting any watermelons or other "drippy" items on them, as the liquid will end up on my counters. Disappointing, but not worth sending them back. August 27, 2015
