Dear Bossip: I Let Him Know Up Front I Wasn't With Sending Pics, Sleeping With Him, Or His Touchy Feely, Now He's Pulled Back
Dear Bossip,
I met this attorney about three months ago. He's everything I like in a man, tall, good-looking, and very intelligent.
He first approached me and asked me out to lunch. We went to lunch and it was great! I knew from just the ease of conversation that we would connect. He's seven years older than me, but I've always been mature for my age (I am over 23…I'm grown).
Needless to say, we haven't been on a "real" date since. I'm a true Southern Belle. I don't sleep around nor am I easy (we haven't had sex). I carry myself like the professional, educated woman that I am. We use to talk every day, several times a day but he'd always say, "I want to SEE you;" not officially ask me out. He was very touchy early on and I shut him down. He also did the dreaded "send me a picture" text which always creeps me out. I had to reiterate to him that I was not that kind of woman. He eventually said he respected that and he calmed down considerably. I decided to continue on getting to know him.
We started to spend more time together (still no dates). He introduced me to his family and his son. It all happened quite fast and I began to fall for him. I would willingly send him "G" rated pictures of me and or text messages. I fell asleep over his house one night and he was so respectful. He didn't try a thing. That's when I started to feel like he respected me and wanted more than just sex.
Here's the issue, we both have very successful careers that require a lot of time. Sometimes I've had to cancel plans and I know he didn't appreciate it. He brings it up all time when I've canceled plans which I feel has turned him off. Don't get me wrong it's not like he had some romantic adventure planned…just us being together.
On his end, it's always something with his son or his family. He's like their "Great Black Hope" or something. On the weekends he prefers to drink and hang out with his family which is not ideal for me (I'm not invited). He usually wants to see me during the day (lunch hour). At first, I thought maybe he has a woman and can't see me at night but I've been to his home…bachelor pad all the way. I've also hung out with him, at his home, at night so I quickly put that out of my mind.
Of course he has his draw-backs I'm sure I have plenty as well, but Bossip I could see myself marrying this man! We would be the perfect power couple. I've disregarded so many of my standards (i.e. age, his son, etc) to date him. My friends say it's my fault because I'm not sexual with him. I mean we kiss, hug, and embrace each other. I just don't engage in casual sex it's 2013 not 1970.
Anyway, now he's acting different towards me. The phone calls are infrequent. The sweet nick-names are scarce and I haven't been around his family since the first encounter. What happened? I haven't seen him in almost three weeks except once when I ran into him. We still talk and text but it feels like I'm the one putting forth the effort now. We aren't in an official relationship but I felt like we were heading in that direction. What should I do? I want him back. – Submitting A Motion For An Appeal – P.S. If it helps he's a Gemini.
Dear Ms. Submitting A Motion For An Appeal,
Did you say you can see yourself as a power couple? LMBAO! Girl, first you have to be a couple. Get your damn head out of the clouds talkin' 'bout power couple. You're living in this fantasy world and his fantasy is getting you in the bed with your legs behind your head. LOL!
First things first, zodiac sign has nothing to do with it. Sorry. I don't know why you all are caught up in what sign somebody is, that is not an indicator for who they will be with you. If someone doesn't like you, they just don't like you. If someone is a cheater, that doesn't dictate what sign they are. All signs cheat. And, this whole non-sense that Scorpios are sexual people, uhm, news flash, I've met Virgos, Libras, Cancers, and Aries who were extremely sexual people. That negates everything about zodiac signs. Don't fall for that bull-ish!
Second, you said you can see yourself marrying this man. However, you're not in an 'official' relationship. I'm confused. If you've only known him all but three months, but yet you're talking about you can see yourself marrying him. Huh??? And, again, you're not in an 'official' relationship. Uhm, sweetie, slow your roll and pump your damn brakes. Girl, I swear you women will start planning the wedding when you meet a man, and you don't know anything about him. Yet, you're talking about marrying him, after three damn months, and you haven't been out on a 'real' date, and you're already writing in to Bossip for advice on why he's not acting the same when you first met him. Girl, please stop!
Third, let's address the fact that you haven't been out on a 'real' date. Why? Why haven't you been out on a real date? Did you ask him? Oh, I know, he wants to hit and bang you out. You're playing Southern Belle, and I'm-not-a-cheap-trick-hoe. So, you're putting him off, which is a good thing. I do commend you on this. However, he has shown you his hand. He wants some nookie. He wants to play around and get up in them panties, and since you're not relenting he's decided it's not worth the effort. Plain and simple.
Fourth, you want to know what he's about. He asked you to send him some naked pictures. You declined. You put him in his place. Then, he tells you that he wants to 'see' you. You let him know that you are not that type of woman. Again, you put him in his place. He was touchy feely in the beginning, and you let him know to stop putting them paws on you. Again, you put him in his place. When you keep rejecting a man's advances, he will eventually reject you. Thus, he didn't try anything while you were at his house. You've already dejected him on several occasions, therefore, he figured why even bother.
But, let's look at what you wrote in regards to you canceling on him, and his complaining about you canceling: "Don't get me wrong it's not like he had some romantic adventure planned…just us being together." That right there! WOW! He wants to spend time with you, and you brush it off and are dismissive about it by saying it's just us being together. Welp, you've got your answer. You want this romantic, Hollywood movie fantasy, Mr. Save-Me and Treat Me Like A Princess, and a man who is Mr. Wonderful, Mr. Romantic, my prince.
The fact that he wanted to spend time with you, and you don't really know what he had planned, but the fact he just wanted to spend time with you, and you dismissed it as it was nothing. Yet, again, you rejected him. And, he's probably internalized all of your actions as a woman who keeps rejecting him. Think about this – you said, "On his end, it's always something with his son or his family. He's like their "Great Black Hope" or something. On the weekends he prefers to drink and hang out with his family which is not ideal for me (I'm not invited)." If he is the savior with his family and son. If he is their hero. If he is their "Great Black Hope" and they make him feel needed, wanted, and desired, then you come along and reject him. What do you think that does to him? A man who is always needed, wanted, and desired. You bruise his ego, and make him feel that he is not needed, wanted, or desired. You have rejected the "Great Black Hope" and he will find a woman who wants to be saved. He will find a woman who will need him. He will find a woman who will want him. He will find a woman who will desire him.
I'm not saying that you have to relent and become damsel in distress, because that is clearly not who you are. But, at some point you have to allow the man to feel like a man. You have to let him know that you do want him, desire him, and need him. It's a subtle trick that you do for men. And, a smart, intelligent, and wise woman knows how to do this to a man. She can be strong, independent, and a woman, but at the same time she can seduce a man, be dependent, let him be a man, and submit just enough to let him think he's saving her, helping her, and that she needs him. So, you can claim to be a mature 23-year old, but in reality, you're acting like the young 23-year old. And, besides, you're too independent for him. You have too many rules. You have too many "no's," and not enough "yes's." Again, don't change for him. That is the wrong thing to do for a man. Maintain your values, morals, and dignity. It's commendable. Besides, you've already done things that you normally wouldn't do, such as date a man his age, with kids, and etc. You said that. So, don't bend over for a man who is not bending over for you. There is a man out there who's willing to accommodate you, and be what you want him to be, it's just not this man. – Terrance Dean

TC TO RALPH WALDO EMERSON; 18 December 1846; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18461218-TC-RWE-01; CL 21:112-114.
Chelsea, 18 Decr, 1846—
Dear Emerson,—This is the 18th of the month, and it is a frightful length of time, I know not how long, since I wrote to you,—sinner that I am! Truly we are in no case for paying debts at present, being all sick more or less, from the hard cold weather, and in a state of great temporary puddle: but, as the adage says, "one should own debt, and crave days";1—therefore accept a word from me, such as it may be.
I went, as usual, to the North Country in the Autumn; passed some two extremely disconsolate months,—for all things distress a wretched thin-skinned creature like me,—in that old region, which is at once an Earth and a Hades to me, an unutterable place, now that I have become mostly a ghost there! I saw Ireland too on my return; saw black potatoe-fields, a ragged noisy population, that has long in a headlong baleful manner followed the Devil's leading, listened namely to blustering shallow-violent Imposters and Children of Darkness, saying, "Yes, we know you, you are Children of Light!"2—and so has fallen all out at elbows in body and in soul; and now having lost its potatoes is come as it were to a crisis; all its windy nonsense cracking suddenly to pieces under its feet: a very pregnant crisis indeed! A country cast suddenly into the meltingpot,—say into the Medea's-Cauldron;3 to be boiled into horrid dissolution; whether into new youth, into sound healthy life, or into eternal death and annihilation, one does not yet know! Daniel O'Connell stood bodily before me, in his green Mullaghmast Cap; haranguing his retinue of Dupeables: certainly the most sordid Humbug I have ever seen in this world; the emblem to me, he and his talk and the worship and credence it found, of all the miseries that can befal a Nation. I also conversed with Young Ireland in a confidential manner; for Young Ireland, really meaning what it says, is worth a little talk: the Heroism and Patriotism of a new generation; welling fresh and new from the breasts of Nature; and already poisoned by O'Connellism and the Old-Irish atmosphere of bluster, falsity, fatuity, into one knows not what. Very sad to see. On the whole no man ought, for any cause, to speak lies, or have anything [to]4 do with lies; but either hold his tongue, or speak a bit of the truth: that is the meaning of a tongue, people used to know!— Ireland was not the place to console my sorrows. I returned home very sad out of Ireland;—and indeed have remained one of the saddest, idlest, most useless of Adam's sons ever since; and do still remain so. I care not to write anything more,—so it seems to me at present. I am in my vacant interlunar cave5 (I suppose that is the truth);—and I ought to wrap my mantle round me, and lie, if dark, silent also. But, alas, I have wasted almost all your poor Sheet first!—
Miss Fuller came duly as you announced;6 was welcomed for your sake and her own. A high-soaring, clear, enthusiast soul; in whose speech there is much of all that one wants to find in speech. A sharp subtle intellect too; and less of that shoreless Asiatic dreaminess than I have sometimes met with in her writings. We liked one another very well, I think, and the Springs too were favourites. But, on the whole, it could not be concealed, least of all from the sharp female intellect, that this Carlyle was a dreadfully heterodox, not to say a dreadfully savage fellow, at heart; believing no syllable of all that Gospel of Fraternity, Benevolence, and new Heaven-on-Earth, preached forth by all manner of "advanced" creatures from George Sand7 to Elihu Burritt,8 in these days; that in fact the said Carlyle not only disbelieved all that, but treated it as poisonous Cant,—sweetness of sugar-of-lead,—a detestable phosphorescence from the dead body of a Christianity, that would not admit itself to be dead, and lie buried with all its unspeakable putrescences, as a venerable dead one ought! Surely detestable enough.— To all which Margaret listened with much good nature; tho' of course with sad reflexions not a few.— She is coming back to us, she promises. Her dialect is very vernacular,—extremely exotic in the London climate. If she do not gravitate too irresistibly towards that class of New-Era people (which includes whatsoever we have of prurient, esurient, morbid, flimsy, and in fact pitiable and unprofitable, and is at a sad discount among men of sense), she may get into good tracks of inquiry and connexion here, and be very useful to herself and others. I could not shew her Alfred (he has been here since) nor Landor:9 but surely if I can I will,—that or a hundred times as much as that,—when she returns.— — They tell me you are about collecting your Poems.10 Well; tho' I do not approve of rhyme at all; yet it is impossible Emerson in rhyme or prose can put down any thought that was in his heart but I should wish to get into mine. So let me have the Book as fast as may be. And do others like it if you will take circumbendibuses [circumlocutions] for sound's sake! And excuse the Critic who seems to you so unmusical; and say, It is the nature of beast!— — Adieu, dear Friend: write to me, write to me. Yours ever T. Carlyle

Bobby McFerrin: I Hear Music
I Hear Music
Bobby McFerrin (vocals)
Spontaneous Inventions (Blue Note 46298)
Bobby McFerrin (vocals).
Composed by Frank Loesser and Burton Lane.
Recorded: Aquarius Theatre, Los Angeles, February 28, 1986
Rating: 90/100 (learn more)
Bobby McFerrin has been part of the American music scene for over 25 years, so it's easy to take him for granted and, in the process, overlook his considerable accomplishments. To start, there is the whole concept of solo singing that McFerrin developed for himself. With his amazing range and the ability to make rapid-fire changes from the top to the bottom of his voice, he created the illusion of a continuous walking bass line under his falsetto improvisations. Add the frequent slapping of his hand on his chest and the illusion of the rhythm section is complete. But McFerrin did more than just creating his own one-man band. He found a large audience that was not only interested in music for its own sake, but also in making music. He encourages his audience to sing along (and comically chastises them when they don't) and he makes the whole experience of making music a great deal of fun. The concert from which Spontaneous Inventions derives was also recorded for video. The hall is packed (and this, I remind you, is before "Don't Worry, Be Happy"). On "I Hear Music", McFerrin sings a line or two of the lyric before taking out the words. On earlier live recordings, McFerrin was somewhat lax on staying within the unheard harmony, but on this track, he outlines the harmony for most of the solo. When he brings the audience in, McFerrin's goofy choice of scat syllables makes the performance lose its focus. Yet, to hear the audience sing back McFerrin's musical ideas with considerable accuracy makes up for the temporary suspension of time and harmony.

Three-vehicle accident injures two people
Published: Saturday, April 26, 2014 at 12:30 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, April 26, 2014 at 12:30 p.m.
THOMASVILLE | Officers with the Thomasville Police Department remained on the scene Saturday afternoon of a three-vehicle accident that injured two people.
The accident was reported at 10:23 a.m. at N.C. Highway 109. Capt. Ron Leonard of Davidson County Emergency Services said the accident occurred south of Lambeth Road.
Josh Myers, supervisor with Davidson County 911, confirmed one person was transported by AirCare to Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center in Winston-Salem. Leonard said the patient transported by medical helicopter was a male who suffered injuries that could be life-threatening. The captain said one other person was transported with minor injuries by Davidson County EMS to a local hospital.
Myers said telecommunciators were told one person was ejected. Leonard said four others refused treatment. The captain said the accident involved a pickup truck and two cars.
About 2:30 p.m. officers were on the scene continuing their investigation. Thomasville Police Chief Jeff Insley was also there as it appeared officers were conducting measurements. A news release from the TPD late Saturday afternoon indicated the accident is still being investigation and more information would be released in the upcoming week.
The TPD was assisted on the scene by Davidson County EMS and the Thomasville Fire Department.

The scenes involving the baby Renesmee in "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2" featured a CG infant that seemed slightly creepy rather than otherworldly.
However, it was a massive improvement over what they had on set. Producers originally had commissioned an animatronic baby for use in scenes, but its appearance was so unsettling that director Bill Condon cut it from the picture.
It was odd enough that it was dubbed 'Chuckesmee', referring to the Chucky doll from the "Child's Play" films. In an interview last year, Condon called the doll: "A giant misfire on all fronts. Truly, it was one of the most grotesque things I've ever seen... There was one shot where I call, 'Cut!' and suddenly she turns her head and mechanically stares right into the camera. It was incredibly disturbing."
Now, an amusing featurette just released in the new "Twilight Forever" box set showcases the animatronic doll in all its unsettling glory.

This is the first installment of Photo Basics, where the basic concepts are covered.
For any given scene there is an optimal exposure. An image exposure is made up from a combination of three elements, aperture, shutter speed and ISO. To the left is a graphic representation, an exposure triangle. Changes in any one of the elements will effect choices or compromises needed for the others.
Aperture is the amount of light let into the camera through the camera lens. The size of the opening for light to go through is changed by a series of plates inside the lens. Think of it like the iris in your eye. The aperture is given a number, an f number, which is a mathematical ration between the focal length of the lens and the size of the opening. The elements of the image affected by aperture are focus, depth of field, and bokah. A fast lens has a larger opening and a larger front glass element (but a lower number representing the f-stop) with maximum apertures like 1.4 & 2.8
Shutter speed is the amount of time the film or sensor is exposed to light. Shutter speed is represented in seconds or fractions of seconds 1/2000, 1/2, 2 sec. The elements of the image affected by shutter speed are camera blur, subject blur and motion. A fast shutter speed is a very short duration 1/2000
ISO is the rating of film or the sensor for it's ability to gather light. A higher ISO rating is able to expose with less light than a lower ISO. 100, to 400 are typical ratings, 1600, 3200 and above. ISO is said to be faster as the rating increases, slower as it decreases.
In later installments how each element affects the image will be explained

HELLE was the goddess of the Hellespont a body of water bridging the Aegean and Black Seas.
She was once a mortal princess, the daughter of King Athamas of Boiotia by the cloud-nymphe Nephele. Her stepmother Ino was jealous of her stepchildren, and tricked Athamas into offering Helle and her brother Phrixos as a sacrifice to the gods. But Nephele sent Khrysomallos, the golden-fleeced ram, to rescue the pair.
During their flight to safety Helle grew tired and fell from the back of the animal into the sea. Some say she drowned, others that she was rescued by Poseidon and transformed into a sea-goddess (apotheosis). The sea was named Hellespontos "the Sea of Helle" after her.
Helle's step-mother Ino ("of the Ionian Sea") and half-brother Melikertes were also turned into sea-gods.
HELLE (Hellê), a daughter of Athainas and Nephele, and sister of Phrixus. (Apollod. i. 9. § 1; Apollon. Rhod. i. 927; Ov. Fast. iv. 909, Met. xi. 195.) When Phrixus was to be sacrificed, Nephele rescued her two children, who rode away through the air upon the ram with the golden fleece, the gift of Hermes, but, between Sigeium and the Chersonesus, Helle fell into the sea, which was hence called the sea of Helle (Hellespont; Aeschyl. Pers. 70, 875). Her tomb was shown near Pactya, on the Hellespont. (Herod. vii. 57.)

Now Ino, as a plot against the children of Nephele, persuaded the women to parch the wheat, which they did without the men knowing. So the earth, sown with parched wheat, failed to produce its yearly harvest. Ino persuaded the messengers to report that the oracle prophesied an end to the dearth if Phrixos were to be sacrificed to Zeus. When Athamas heard this and was pressured by the joint efforts of the inhabitants, he had Phrixos placed on the altar. But Nephele seized both him and her daughter, and gave them a golden-fleeced ram which she had received from Hermes, by which they were borne through the sky over and across the land and the sea. But as they reached the sea that lies between Sigeumand the Kherronesos (Chersonese), Helle slipped into the depths; from her deaththe sea was calledt he Hellespontos after her."

"When Athamas was about to sacrifice here [Mount Laphystios in Boiotia] Phrixos and Helle, a ram with his fleece of gold was sent by Zeus to the children, and that on the back of his ram they made good their escape."
Diodorus Siculus, Library of History 4. 47. 1 - 4 (trans. Oldfather) (Greek historian C1st B.C.) :
"Phrixos, the son of Athamas, the myths relate, because of his stepmother's plots against him, took his sister Helle and fled with her from Greece. While they were making the passage from Europe to Asia, as a kind of Providence of the gods directed, on the back of a Ram (Krios), whose fleece was of gold (Khrysomallos), the maiden fell into the sea, which was named after her Hellespontos (Hellespont).
Also the account of Phrixos underwent a similar working into a myth. For, as some men say, he made his voyage upon a ship which bore the head of a ram upon its bow, and Helle, being troubled with sea-sickness, while leaning far over the side of the boat for this reason, fell into the sea."
Philostratus the Elder, Imagines 2. 15 (trans. Fairbanks) (Greek rhetorician C3rd A.D.) :
"In Kolkhis (Colchis) is preserved a golden fleece, the fleece of the ancient ram that ferried Helle with Phrixos (Phrixus) across the sky, as the story goes."
Tryphiodorus, The Taking of Ilias 218 ff (trans. Mair) (Greek epic C3rd or C4th A.D.) :
"They sailed away in their ships from the Rhoeteian shore to a haven over the sea in fair-crowned Tenedos, ploughing the grey waters of Helle, daughter of Athamas."
Pseudo-Hyginus, Fabulae 1 (trans. Grant) (Roman mythographer C2nd A.D.) :
"Athamas, son of Aeolus, had by his wife Nebula [Nephele], a son Phrixus and a daughter Helle."
Pseudo-Hyginus, Fabulae 2 :
"Ino, daughter of Cadmus and Harmonia, wishing to kill Phrixus and Helle, Nebula's [Nephele's] children, formed a plan with the women of the entire tribe, and conspired to parch the seed grain to make it unfertile, so that, when the sterility and scarcity of grain resulted, the whole state should perish, some by starvation, others by sickness. With regard to this situation Athamas sent a servant to Delphi, but Ino instructed him to bring back a false reply that the pestilence would end if he sacrificed Phrixus to Jove [Zeus]. When Athamas refused to do this, Phrixus voluntarily and readily promised that he alone would free the state from its distress. Accordingly he was led to the altar, wearing fillets of sacrifice, but he servant, out of pity for the youth, revealed Ino's plans to Athamas."
Pseudo-Hyginus, Fabulae 3 :
"While Phrixus and Helle under madness sent by Liber [Dionysos] were wandering in a forest, Nebula [Nephele] their mother is said to have come there bringing a gilded ram, offspring of Neptune [Poseidon] and Theophane. She bade her children to mount it, and journey to Colchis to King Aeetes, son of Sol [Helios], and there sacrifice the ram to Mars [Ares]. This they were said to have done, but when they had mounted, and the ram had carried them over the sea, Helle fell from the ram; from this sea was called Hellespont."
Pseudo-Hyginus, Astronomica 2. 20 (trans. Grant) (Roman mythographer C2nd A.D.) :
"Constellation Aries. This is thought to be the ram which carried Phrixus and Helle through the Hellespont . . . Many have said that Helle fell into the Hellespont . . . Stirred by this report [false accusation that Phrixus attacked his wife], Cretheus, as was fitting for one who deeply loved his wife and was king, persuaded Athamas to put Phrixus to death. However, Nubes intervened, and rescuing Phrixus and Helle his sister, put them on the ram, and bade them flee as far as they could through the Hellespont. Helle fell off and paid the debt to nature, and the Hellespont was nemd from her name. Phrixus came to the Colchians, and, as we have said, hung up the fleece of the slain ram in a temple."
Ovid, Fasti 3. 853 ff (trans.Boyle) (Roman poetry C1st B.C. to C1st A.D.) :
"The seeds were burnt by the wicked stepmother's [Ino's] trick and no customary grain had sprouted. A messenger visits the oracle to fetch Delphi's sure help for the barren earth. Corrupt like the seed, he reports the oracle seeks the deaths of Helle and young Phrixus. People, time and Ino compelled a stubborn king to endure the unspeakable orders. Phrixus and his sister, headbands scarfing their brows, stand at the altars and wail their joint fate. Their mother [Nephele the cloud nymphe] sees them as she hangs upon the air, and hammers her naked breast in shock. She dives into the Dracon-born city [Thebes], enveloped in clouds, and snatches her children away. She provides a Ram shimmering with gold for their escape: it carries the two across the wide seas. They say the girl's left hand clutched the horn weakly, when she named the water after herself. Her brother almost died with her, as he tried to stop her falling and offered his outstretched hands. He wept that he lost his partner in twin peril, unaware she had joined the blue god [Poseidon]."
Ovid, Heroides 18. 117 ff (trans. Showerman) (Roman poetry C1st B.C. to C1st A.D.) :
"[Leandros (Leander) leaves to swim across the Hellespont:] 'I return to the Maiden's sea.'"
Ovid, Heroides 18. 136 ff :
"The sea of Athamantis (Athamas' child) is foaming white with immense billows, and scarcely safe is the keel that remains in its own harbour; such were these waters, I judge, when first they got from the drowned maid the name they bear. This place is of evil fame enough for the loss of Helle, and, though it spare me, its name reproaches it."
Ovid, Heroides 19. 123 ff :
"With what great waves the shores [of the Hellespontos] are beaten, and what dark clouds envelop and hide the day! It may be the loving mother [Nephele, the Cloud] of Helle has come to the sea, and is lamenting in downpouring tears the drowning of her child--or is the step-dame [Ino], turned to a goddess of the waters [Leukothea], vexing the sea that is called by her step-child's hated name? This place, such as 'tis now, is aught but friendly to tender maids; by these waters Helle perished, by them my own affliction comes."
Ovid, Heroides 19. 163 ff :
"Why, though Phrixus and Phrixus' sister both rode this way [across the Hellespontos], did the maiden [Helle] alone give name to these wide waters?"
Propertius, Elegies 2. 26a (trans. Goold) (Roman elegy C1st B.C.) :
"Helle tossed on the purple waves, whom the Golden Ram carried on his fleecy back."
Seneca, Troades 1034 ff (trans. Miller) (Roman tragedy C1st A.D.) :
"Phrixus mourned because Helle fell, when the flock's leader, resplendent with golden fleece, bore brother and sister on his back together, and in mid-sea lost half his burden."
Nonnus, Dionysiaca 9. 303 ff (trans. Rouse) (Greek epic C5th A.D.) :
"The bed of his [Athamas'] first wife Nephele had given him two children."
Nonnus, Dionysiaca 10. 67 ff :
"[Ino fleeing her murderous husband Athamas cries out:] 'I know where this disaster came from, rolling upon your mother: I know! It is Nephele sends the Erinyes after me, that I may die in this sea where maiden Helle fell.' [Ino then leaps into the sea and is transformed into a sea-goddess.]"
Ovid, Metamorphoses 11. 195 (trans. Melville) (Roman epic C1st B.C. to C1st A.D.) :
"The side of Helle Nepheleis' [the daughter of Nephele] narrow strait."
Ovid, Fasti 3. 853 ff (trans.Boyle) (Roman poetry C1st B.C. to C1st A.D.) :
"[The Golden-Ram] carries the two [Phrixos & Helle] across the wide seas. They say the girl's left hand clutched the horn weakly, when she named the water after herself. Her brother almost died with her, as he tried to stop her falling and offered his outstretched hands. He wept that he lost his partner in twin peril, unaware she had joined the blue god [Poseidon]."
Valerius Flaccus, Argonautica 2. 585 ff (trans. Mozley) (Roman epic C1st A.D.) :
"But lo! As dawn was breaking, the waves opened and scared the flying ship [of the Argonauts], and there stood before them Helle [the sister of Phrixos who fell from the Golden-Ram and became goddess of the Hellespont] chapleted, the sister now of Panope and Thetis [two Nereides], and holding in her left hand a golden sceptre. Then she lulled the waves, and looking upon the captains and their leader accosted Jason with gently words: 'Thou too art being driven from Haemonia across strange seas by an unfriendly kingdom at home and a destiny like mine; once more doth Fortuna banish the offspring of Aeolus, and you, ill-starred folk, are seeking the Scythian river. A vast land is still before thee, a measureless sea (falter not in what thou hast begun), and Phasis itself lies far off, yet it will grant thee entrance. In that spot is a secret glade, and twin altars piles of turf; there pay the first rites to Phrixus as is due, and I pray you, bear these words to his dust: "My brother, I wander not, as thou fanciest, through the silence of the Stygian shore; vainly, dear one, doest thou search the paths of empty Avernus. For no storm bruises me tossed upon rocks and waves; straightway as I fell, Cymothoe [a Nereid] and Glaucus came swift to my succour; this abode too, this realm the father of the deep himself awarded me, willing justly, and our gulf envies not Ino's sea [the Gulf of Corinth]."'
She ceased, and with a sigh hid her sad countenance beneath the calm waters, as the thought of her father's grief came back to her. Then the prince [Jason] poured wine upon the sea, and thus began: 'Daughter of Cretheus, pride of the sea and of our stock, open to us our path, and, O goddess, prosper our voyage!'
Then onward he steered the ship, and flew on between cities on either hand."
Valerius Flaccus, Argonautica 5. 195 ff :
"[In Kolkhis (Colchis) stands] the tomb of Phrixos, beside whom stands wrought in marble his sister [Helle], ill-starred companion, dreading on this side her cruel-stepmother [Ino], on that the sea, and afraid to put her hands upon the Ram [Khrysomallos] . . .
Himself [Jason of the Argonauts] duly bearing in a heavy bowl the sacred offering of wine calls to the shade [of Phrixos] and thus speaks at the altar: '. . . Be favourable, Phrixus, and in kindly mood remember thy native land. Do thou [Helle] too now, who wert vainly laid in an empty tomb [a tomb was built for her by Phrixos who believed his sister drowned when she was in fact transformed into a goddess], goddess of the sea, and aid the cause of thy kinfolk.'"
Statius, Thebaid 1. 23 ff (trans. Mozley) (Roman epic C1st A.D.) :
"Helle, deep sunk below the sea and now a Nereis, holds sway over the detested waves [of the Hellespont]."

HINCKLEY TWP. — A student at Hinckley Elementary School has contracted the H1N1 virus.
The case was confirmed Wednesday and the child is recovering at home, said Dawn Marzano, spokeswoman for Highland Local Schools.
In a letter sent to parents Thursday, Superintendent Catherine Ackerman said there are no plans to close any schools.
"Like many other school districts, we anticipated the possibility that some of our students and/or staff might experience this illness since it's so widespread and highly contagious," she said in the letter.
Marzano said staff members in each school have taken extra measures to disinfect surfaces and are enforcing proper hygiene procedures such as washing hands.
"Common sense goes a long way," she said.
Individual cases of H1N1 — also known as swine flu — are not always reported to county health departments, so whether the Hinckley Elementary case was the first in the county is uncertain, said Colleen Rice, community relations specialist for the Medina County Health Department.
Dr. Daniel Raub, Health Department commissioner, said 99 percent of all current flu cases are of the H1N1 variety.
However, he encourages residents to get seasonal flu vaccines so as not to risk getting both kinds of flu in the same season.
The Health Department is sponsoring seasonal flu and pneumonia vaccination clinics around the county.
The pneumonia vaccine is also important to receive because many contract pneumonia while suffering from the flu, Raub said. It is recommended that children younger than age 5, adults older than 65 and others with chronic health problems get the vaccine, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The next clinics will be Monday at the Medina County University Center, 6300 Technology Lane, Lafayette Township, from 9 to 11 a.m., and from 4 to 7 p.m. at Summa Wadsworth-Rittman Hospital's Founders Hall, 195 Wadsworth Road.
Seasonal flu vaccines are $25 for county residents and $30 for nonresidents. The pneumonia vaccine is $45 for county residents and $50 for others, but Rice said vaccine manufacturer Merck has a financial assistance program available for those who qualify.

The Americana Music Festival, being held Sept. 17-21 in venues throughout Nashville, has always been an event with a deep respect for the legends who helped make the genre what it has grown into. While many of the well over 100 artists performing Americana Showcases at Americanafest are younger acts who are acting as modern flag bearers for roots music or rising stars who will comprise the next generation of the movement, there are always a fair share of established stars willing to play to the hardcore enthusiasts who line up for the festival. Often, this is a chance to see these stars in much more intimate venues than they normally play, and with a much more relaxed feel to their show.
Here are our picks for 5 legends you should pencil in to your Americanafest 2014 lineup:
Billy Joe Shaver
Any fan of outlaw country should be lined up outside whichever venue is lucky enough to host Billy Joe Shaver's Americanafest performance early, as his show is sure to fill up fast. Shaver's classic 1973 album "Old Five and Dimers Like Me" is considered to be one of the most perfect examples of the genre. He is set to release his first new album in 7 years, "Long in the Tooth" on Aug. 5 and has been getting favorable press. A recent profile in Rolling Stone debuted the album's first single, a duet with Willie Nelson called "Hard to Be an Outlaw."
Buddy Miller
Outside the confines of the Americana Music Festival Buddy Miller is far from a household name, although recent stints as music producer for the hit show "Nashville" and Sirius XM radio host along with his friend Jim Lauderdale have certainly gone a long way toward changing that. At Americanafest, a Buddy Miller appearance is treated like Elvis just walked into the room. Miller and Lauderdale are about as close to official ambassadors for the Americana music scene as you can get. Miller's Americanafest shows are always capacity crowds and always worth wedging yourself into the scrum for.
Joe Henry
These days, Joe Henry is known more for his work as a producer of artists like Billy Bragg, Bonnie Raitt, and Carolina Chocolate Drops than for his own music. But one listen to classic albums like "Short Man's Room" and "Trampoline" quickly remind you that Joe Henry can hold his own on stage with anyone. Henry released his latest album, "Invisible Hour" in June.
Robyn Hitchcock
While it may seem strange to put an eclectic British surrealist rocker like Robyn Hitchcock on an Americana Music Festival lineup, but past Brit performers like Richard Thompson, Billy Bragg, and Robert Plant have shown that modern Americana music isn't fenced in by lines on a map. Hitchcock has always had a folksy element to his music, drawing comparisons to Bob Dylan throughout his career. He has also delved pretty deeply into American roots rock in his collaborations with Gillian Welch, David Rawlings, and John Paul Jones among others. Hitchcock's live shows are like nothing else you'll see at Americanafest 2014 and the potential guests from among his dozens of local collaborators makes this one a no brainer for anyone looking for a change of pace.
Todd Snider and Friends
Todd Snider has been dubbed the "Mayor of East Nashville" by his fanbase, an honor he's earned by being the most vocal standard bearer for the quirky storytelling style that has become the East Nashville Sound. Always an entertaining performer on his own, his billing as "Todd Snider and Friends" leaves the gates wide open for anything to happen. Currently touring with Americana/Jam hybrid band Hard Working Americans, Snider has the talents and the local friends to take this show in a number of different directions, from pure folk to jam to loud guitar rock. Unless more information is revealed on who Todd's "friends" are, fans will get to be surprised. Whoever they are, you can be virtually guaranteed of a good time. Anywhere Todd Snider's in the building, that's automatically where the party is.

You Just Have to Do It!
"Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly." — Robert F. Kennedy
Every day people take risks that could ultimately provoke danger, mishap, or loss, all for the chance to win at this game called 'life'. Some do indeed have victory, while others are defeated, only to get back up and try again.
How many of you can say, you've taken risks? Have a dared to start a new business venture, write a book, or close a potentially big deal that made you lots of money? Or is what you dream about only that…a dream?
No one has the opportunity to succeed unless they were willing to fail first. And to be honest, they may have failed many times. But the key is to NOT QUIT!
Try these strategies when you decide to take the next leap of faith: 5 Ways to be Better at Risk Taking
And let me add my own advice to you:
1. Always know that if God sent you to it, He will bring you through it.
2. God always makes provision for the vision He has given you.
3. There is nothing new under the sun. Remember what you have thought about others may have already tried, failed, and quit! The difference is: Don't you quit!
4. Each risk will bring you further and further to the promise. Keep etching away!
5. One day you will look back at how far you've come and you'll say, 'I Made It!'
Lord help me to learn to follow you. As you say 'YES', I will go. I won't run from risks because if it's truly of you, you will direct and guide me into all truth. Keep me from the path of the enemy and allow my steps to be ordered by you. After I've done all I can, you will prosper me and let me look back, if only for a moment, to see from whence I came. And I will be sure to give You the glory. In Jesus Name, Amen.

And since he always goes above and beyond, you'll also get an audio version of "Think and Grow Rich", so you can absorb prosperous thinking while doing other things.
Napoleon Hill's "Law of Success in 16 Volumes":
Napoleon HIll was a Master researcher. After interviewing men and women from all walks of life, his research revealed the core principles which lead to success. His classic, "Think and Grow Rich" was a simplified book meant for the masses. His earlier work, "The Law of Success in 16 Lessons" was much more detailed and contained everything his research uncovered.
Each lesson was originally printed and bound as a separate volume, as presented here.
Sen Ze's "Mini-Encyclopedia of Low-Cost, High-Profit Internet Business Models":
It's all well and good to know the core principles upon which prosperity is created, but to REALLY make money, you have to have a plan to follow. In this book, you'll find many different plans which have been proven to create abundant prosperity from tiny investments.

Jimmy D. Brown is recognized as the Internet's leading expert on building profitable mailing lists. This is important to you because once you have a good mailing list, you can make as much money as you want at the push of a "Send" button.
Of course, before you can cash in on all this, you have to build a large mailing list, and this is where these reports come in handy. With the simple step-by-step process provided, you can build a massive list of subscribers eagerly waiting to give you money.
Jonathan Leger's "$7 Secrets":
One of the EASIEST ways to make money quickly is to offer a low-priced product that's worth a LOT more than it costs. Just think about it -- how much do you think about making a $2 purchase and how much do you think about making one for $200?
In this short ebook, Jonathan provides a very clear, step-by-step plan to set up a money-making system which not only makes money, but also builds a large mailing list in the process.
If you think THIS package of goodies is something, wait until you see what's in my MAIN "Power Prosperity Package"!

'Invisible' Bicycle Made Out Of Clear Plastic Panels
This is artist Jimmy Kuehnle's invisible bike. It's made out of clear Lexan panels and, I don't know about you, but I can still see it. Jimmy's outfit: also cannot be unseen. I actually reached out to invisible jet owner Wonder Woman to see what she thought of Jimmy's bike, and she had this to say, "Stop staring at my chest." I couldn't though, I just couldn't.
Hit the jump for a couple more shots.
Thanks to Casey, who agrees invisible bikes are the worst ones to remember where you parked.

The railroad crossing blinks and dings as the arms lower just after a headlight glistens on the rails heading south to the Selma Smithfield Amtrak Station or as locals know it as the Selma Union Depot Station in Selma, North Carolina. Peeking around the corner is the Amtrak auto train bound for Orlando, Florida. Hang a while at the station and the Selma train watchers know the approximate times and types of trains that run by daily. Who are the Selma train watchers? They are an unorganized group of friends from neighboring counties gathering to visit and watch trains at the depot.
Selma, North Carolina was born a railroad town from the need of a depot for the then North Carolina Railroad in 1867. In 1892, the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad bought the land to build a crossing through Selma making it an intersection for two separate railroads. Approaching it's 100th anniversary in ten years, the Selma Union Depot was built in 1924 to serve the Atlantic Coast Line and Southern Railways by A.M. Griffin. Griffin was the architect of Wilson, NC's station, north of Selma as well.
Today four Amtrak passenger trains run through Selma with two making stops, the Palmetto and the Carolinian. The intersecting freight is Norfolk Southern and CSX.
Reading the historical panels inside the Selma station, the 1960's brought less of a need for passenger trains and many stations including Selma loss their traffic with the station closing soon after. As with many of our nation's historical sites, repairs and renovations become very expensive as age and deterioration take over. During my years of personal visiting and train watching, I watched the building and landscape fall in disrepair. The Selma depot is where my love of trains got its start. I got my railroad influence from my uncle Loomis Crocker, a native of Selma, NC, a freight/mobile agent with the Southern Railway. I remember visiting him at his offices in Selma and Goldsboro, listening to his stories and amazed at the size of the trains as they approached and passed through town.
Luckily, the townspeople rallied together to save their local history from demolishment in 1975. I remember when Railroad Days were actually held at the station in Selma with carnival rides, vendors, and railway displays. Sources say the first celebration was held in 1976, our nation's bicentennial. Amtrak passenger trains began running and stopping in the early 1980's, bringing a little life back to the still closed station.
Finally in the 2000's, after intense renovation and landscaping, the Selma Amtrak station opened to the public in all it's glory. According to the article in www.greatamericanstations.com, it was 1982 that Selma's station was placed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Visitors and passengers are welcome to visit the station daily that shares the history of Selma, railroad artifacts and photographs on loan from families with a comfortable place to wait before boarding your trains. Tommy Price, of Princeton is a weekend desk clerk that will provide train schedules and other Amtrak information. Although tickets can not be traditional bought through him, there is a ticket/reservation machine near the front door. Mr. Price says "the station is open seven days a week from 10:00am to 4:30 pm" usually meaning an hour before the trains arrival and an hour after they depart.
I hear a train horn blowing through Smithfield, south of Selma -must be a CSX coming! Camera- ready!
The slideshow with this article shows the interior and exterior of the station.
Address: 410 E Railroad Street, Selma, NC.
The renovated, air conditioned station has free vehicle, motor coach and RV parking available, vending machines inside and clean period style restrooms.

Testifying before the U.S. Senate Committee on Foreign Relations in 1950, noted globalist James P. Warburg stated: "We shall have world government, whether or not we like it. The question is only whether world government will be achieved by consent or by conquest." In essence, he was implying that we can either transform the United Nations into a world government peacefully, or wait until the Soviet Union took over the world militarily.
At the time, Warburg was testifying in support of the United World Federalist's agenda. They wanted the United States to seek the development of the United Nations into a world federation open to all nations (including the Soviet Union) with defined and limited powers adequate to preserve peace and prevent aggression through the enactment, interpretation, and enforcement of world law. The Soviets viewed their utopian plan as a fig-leaf of American imperialism.
Atlantic Unionists, on the other hand, preferred creating a trans-Atlantic union or partnership after the Second World War. They saw, and continue to see today, the Euro-Atlantic community as a staging area for the political evolution and advancement of Western institutions and ideology. Whereas world federalists placed their emphasis on world peace through world law, proponents of Atlantic Union placed their accent on defending freedom through strength and advancing it through consent.
While prominent American leaders were sympathetic to the Atlantic Union idea, its sister philosophy, Atlanticism, prevailed and ultimately influenced U.S. foreign policy. The relative lack of European interest in federating with the United States was a major factor in this development. Few realize, however, that Clarence K. Streit's vision of Atlantica ultimately spawned NATO, and what we now know as the European Union. Atlanticists eventually sided with power over principle.
As a political influence, utopian world order strategies were ultimately discarded by American leaders in the 1980s, and eventually replaced with global governance schemes. Rather than seek to establish a world order based on popular consent and representation, global elites decided to advance economic integration under the rubric of so-called free trade regimes. Fundamentally, the world suffers from obscene economic inequality due to the reality of globalization without adequate representation.
Imagine, for a second, if CEOs of Western multinational corporations were forced to adhere to regulations justified by business ethics on an international scale. MNCs operating in the United States are held accountable to anti-trust, anti-discrimination, labor, health and safety as well as environmental regulations. Let's be honest, their ability to work within nations that "specialize" in avoiding regulations based on traditional American business ethics gives them a unique economic advantage. A world government could take this privilege away.
The political abandonment of the Atlantic Union idea in the U.S. Congress paved the way for the latest Atlantica strain. After the Russian people liberated themselves in the 1990s, the West had a unique opportunity to offer exploration of international federalism as a post-Cold War strategy. Shamefully, the Western establishment opted to expand NATO without Russia's consent. Neo-conservatism prevailed as the dominant U.S. foreign policy paradigm.
How could Russians trust the economic intentions of the West under such circumstances? The United States essentially behaved after the Cold War exactly how Soviet leaders warned they would. Russians did not liberate themselves simply to fill Wal-Mart stores with cheap products. The principled thing to do would have been to offer Russia an equal opportunity to shape the post-Cold War order. Not surprisingly, the West dismissed the members of the Non-Aligned Movement as well.
Fortunately for the Russians, Osama bin Laden hated Americans more than he hated them. The antics of al-Qaeda provided Russia a reprieve from Anglo-American imperialism after the United States invaded Afghanistan and Iraq. These conflicts significantly diminished the capability of the United States to project power and intensified the Atlantica strain. NATO Parliamentarians formally recognized this reality in 2010, and started to rebuild Atlantic unity and resolve.
NATO PA Resolution 384 on Building a More Stable and Prosperous International Order (November, 2010) declared "that a tectonic shift may be underway in the global economic balance of power that requires greater co-operation among nations to prevent the rising of major tensions and conflicts." This statement was essentially directed against the Sino-Russian partnership. Ironically, attempts to recruit and integrate Ukraine into the EU, and eventually NATO, spawned tension and conflict.
Apparently, Victoria Nuland at the U.S. State Department didn't get the NATO PA memo. If the United States pursues economic sanctions against Russia for checking Western imperialism, a new Atlantica strain will likely emerge. Unfortunately, it is an election year in the United States, and Obama's legacy is on the line. Expect the United States to act unilaterally if it has to. If cooler heads, on all sides, don't prevail, armed conflict is on the horizon.
U.S. presidential wannabe, Hillary Clinton, recently declared that Putin's actions in Crimea were similar to Hitler's in the late 1930s. Perhaps she should consider the fact that Hitler's acts were fueled by the injustice Germany suffered at Versailles after World War I. The Anglo-American establishment decided to legitimately integrate Germany into the Atlantic community only after its unconditional surrender. Apparently, some states are allowed to join the West through consent; others are invited only after they have been conquered. Historical references can be unpleasant from Putin's perspective.
If things remain as they are now, a Third World War may be on the horizon. It is time for the citizens of the free world from Vancouver to Vladivostok to unite and lead our politicians out of this crisis. The only "reset" between the United States and Russia capable of ending the current power struggle would be an agreement to "reset" the overall structure of the international economic order. Free citizens, not states, should be the foundation of world order. No more globalization without representation. It's time for a libertarian world order.

Is BV a STD? Can it be cured? Why do I keep having reoccurring BV infections, even after I take medications?
Bacterial Vaginosis (BV), is not a sexually transmitted infection (STI). It is an ecologic disturbance of the normal vaginal bacteria from Lactobacillus predominance to an overgrowth of anaerobic bacteria (Gardnerella, Prevotella, Mobiluncus, Mycoplasma, and others). You may notice an increase in vaginal discharge, and sometimes an odor with intercourse, with BV. Vaginitis is the most common reason why women visit a health care provider, over 10 million visits per year in the United States. BV is the most common vaginal infection. Recurrence is common after treatment, 30% of women treated for BV will have a recurrence in 1 to 3 months, and 80% by 9 months.
New guidelines for treating chronic BV suggest:
A longer treatment (10 to 14 days). Using clindamycin instead of metronidazole. Testing for cure one month after the longer treatment. In certain chronic cases, one to 4 months of further treatment. Using condoms during and after treatment, until the vagina has returned to a normal flora and normal pH. Other things that may help are to reduce stress, good hygiene, no thongs and shorter menses.
See your health care provider, or make an appointment with the SHCC for further treatment.

Is it safe? Will it work for me? These are some of the most commonly asked questions regarding "Sedation Dentistry". To help you or your loved ones decide if this is right for you, we're going to answer these questions for you before you even ask.
There is a choice of sedation medication that can be used. You and your doctor will review many factors like your individual medical history to choose which one is right for you. Most of our patients are administered Triazolam. This medication has been used for many, many years and has now found a home in dentistry. In 1996, it was prescribed over 26,000,000 times. Other medications with similar safety backgrounds may also be used for treatment. The historical safety of these medications gives us great confidence in using them.

To ensure your safety, while you are medicated you are continually monitored for vital signs. Baseline readings are taken at your first visit (the consultation visit), so we know what is normal for you.
The most common side effects of this sedation aid are dry mouth and hiccups. The hiccups usually last only a few moments while you are sedated and the dry mouth wears off with the medication.

Wii Fit - Two Weeks In
By user12607856 on Jun 04, 2008
You may remember from my initial observations on the Wii Fit that I set myself the goal of losing 2 pounds in 2 weeks.
I ran the body test again today and I'm down 0.9 pounds from that initial weigh-in value. Wii Fit tells me my body weight is likely to fluctuate by up to 2 pounds during the day, so I should always weigh myself at the same time each day. I remember that for next time. My BMI is slightly less (25.36) but I'm still quite a way from the ideal value of 22. The good news is my Wii Age is down to 49 (minus 5 years from last time, and 2 years below my actual age).
The Wii Fit divides the exercises into four categories:
- Yoga
- Strength Training
- Aerobics
- Balance Games
So far I've been mainly concentrating on the balance games (which are mostly fun) and the running and step exercises from the Aerobics section.
I've now got to the point where I can do the Ski Slalom and not miss any gates, but I'm still only at 2 stars (amateur). Obviously I've got to just go down the hill faster but it's going to take a lot more practice.
For the running (which doesn't use the Balance board -- you just stuff a Wii remote in your pocket), I've tried them all. I actually like the Island laps the best because you can run on different courses if you rush ahead of your guide at different times. You then get to follow one of the two dogs. I love the different sound effects as the surface you are running over changes. I appreciate that every other Mii out there is running slower than you. Watching a Mii trip over is funny the first time. Then it gets old.
Over the weekend, when we got the Wi Wireless connection finally working, Duncan imported a load of new Mii's. It was cool to see Mii Darth Vader running the other way when I was exercising earlier today.
I find that the Free Lap running gets boring. It would be nice if you could vary the course. If you can do this, I haven't worked out how yet. It would be nice if other things varied too. Like the weather. Running in a snow storm would be "interesting". I suspect the Wii doesn't have enough graphics uumph (to use the technical term) to do this.
After Duncan and I tried the two person running, I tried it by myself. I put two Wii's in my pockets, one on either side). Strangely enough, the second Mii (controlled by the right-hand Wii remote) lagged a long way behind the other one. I'm not sure what that's telling me. Maybe that my body is very unbalanced when I'm running.
My aim now is to start doing some of the strength exercises (particularly for the abs), and to learn how to do more of the yoga exercises. I'm a complete beginner in this latter category, so I'm still on the very simple positions.
The novelty hasn't worn off yet. Two weeks in and I'm still having fun.

Nationals have alot of backups playing tonight so today would be a good day to get the #1 seed
From Mark Sheldon's blog;
*Here are some September/Oct batting averages this season for you:
Stubbs: .159 (10-for-63), 0 HR, 1 RBI
Frazier: .181 (13-for-72), 1 HR, 5 RBIs
Heisey: .182 (10-for-55), 1 HR, 2 RBIs
Phillips: .198 (19-for-96), 3 HR
Rolen: .204 (9-for-44), 1 HR, 5 RBIs
Hanigan: .212 (11-for-52), 0 HR, 4 RBIs
Bruce: .228 (21-for-92), 6 HR, 14 RBIs
*This isn't the kind of momentum the Reds need going to the postseason. But if good records/statistics don't mean anything in the playoffs, can the same be said about poor ones?
Guess the player. Since September 1st.
71 Plate appearances. 12 singles. 0 Extra base hits. 5 runs scored. 1 run batted in. 27 strike outs (38%). 100% chance of being in the starting lineup in every postseason game.
Think about that. 1 RBI in a month. That works out to 6 in a season. At that rate he would have to play nearly 17 seasons to get to 100 RBIs. LOL.
The Reds team strikeout rate is 23%. Reds are #21 out of 30 teams in pitches seen. Shows poor plate discipline.

Adobe Announces Winners of 2012 Design Achievement Awards
Global Competition Showcases Student, Faculty Achievement in Converging Technology and the Creative Arts
Adobe Systems Incorporated (Nasdaq:ADBE) today announced the winners of its 12th annual Adobe Design Achievement Awards (ADAA) during a ceremony held earlier this evening at the DesignThinkers 2012 conference in Toronto, Ontario. The event was hosted in collaboration with Icograda (International Council of Communication Design), with distinguished designers Sean Adams and Noreen Morioka serving as the masters of ceremonies.
Tonight's event honored students and educators whose winning projects were selected from 41 finalists out of nearly 5,000 total entries from 70 countries. Student graphic designers, photographers, illustrators, animators, digital filmmakers, developers and computer artists were invited to submit individual or group projects created with Adobe software. Winning students were recognized in 13 categories encompassing interactive media, video and motion, and traditional media; educators were recognized in three categories celebrating innovative teaching methods. All work by ADAA finalists was showcased this week in a special gallery at the DesignThinkers 2012 conference.
"In a globally competitive world, students who can express their ideas and solve problems in creative ways will be the most successful," said Jon Perera, vice president of education, Adobe. "Recognizing top talent among next-generation designers is part of a broader commitment at Adobe to fostering creative thinking and expression in education."
Adobe and Icograda partnered for the fourth consecutive year to attract submissions from the Icograda Education Network, and select an international judging panel of experts in design, art and technology.
"As we near our 50th anniversary, Icograda is proud to look back at what has been achieved with the Adobe partnership," said Marilena Farrggia, managing director of Icograda. "Together we have provided a platform for an international presence, facilitated a network of industry expertise, and developed a mentorship program that fosters potential opportunities."
Judging panel member Fernanda Saboia, creative director at Tatil Design, said, "Students' accessibility to technology gives them so much freedom to test, experiment and really take risks in their efforts to create something very original. It is so beneficial for students to get recognition like this at the beginning of their career as it gives them the confidence to continue to innovate and push the boundaries of self-expression."
Winning student entries were selected based on originality, effectiveness in meeting the communication objective and skill in applying Adobe products. Faculty submissions were scored on educational innovation and the development of applications to better an overall educational experience. View the 2012 judges' commentary here.

Tyler Shields first made a name for himself as a professional inline skater and X Games competitor before making headlines as one of America's edgiest and controversial photographers.
Tyler caused a stir in 2010 when he photographed Lindsay Lohan with a gun and again in 2012 when he photographed Francesca Eastwood destroying a Hermes Birkin Bag with a price tag of $100,000. The public crowd foul yet again when he photographed Glee star Heather Morris "beaten" and bruised, many said he was making light of abusive treatment towards women.
When Shields made his way to the Miller Gallery for a book signing of The Dirty Side of Glamour, I had a chance to talk to the man behind the mask (or lens in this case) to get a better understanding of his photography and why his work leans toward the more violent and controversial.
"When I moved to L.A. I met a lot of very glamorous people in gross places," said Shields of the inspiration behind his book. "Fame is a drug. People just want to be famous to be famous and it eats at them and turns them into monsters."
When I asked him why his work tends to be bloody, violent in nature or just plain twisted, he explains, "There's violence in the news. I like the idea of showing a version of the world the way I see it." He references his photo of seated police offers being sprayed with pepper spray by two women which was inspired by the Occupy Wall Street protestors, students at UC Davis, who were seated in a line a sprayed with pepper spray by police back in 2011.
"When you see the police being sprayed it becomes more haunting."
The Miller Gallery is the surprising member on the short list of galleries that Tyler works with; so what's the draw of the Queen City? Other than his close friendship with the Miller family, Tyler says Cincinnati has some of the "friendliest, supportive people" and some of the coolest places to shoot. So cool in fact Millery Gallery's exhibit of Tyler's work entitled "Tyler Shields: Shot In Cincinnati" features images that were all photographed here in Cincinnati and even appear in his book.
"Cincinnati has become of my favorites spots to shoot. I need to shoot a film here. Seeing the winding river through the city, great architecture, riding a horse through the hills of Kentucky; it seemed like every road we took lent itself to a new discovery. Also, it has the friendliest police department ever, only place I have ever left without an arrest or ticket," he has said of the city.
To aspiring photographers he says, "A lot of people see something that works and try to copy the formula. But that can only take you so far. Showcase your own thing; trial and error."
Don't take our city for granted Cincinnatians and be sure to check out the Miller Gallery in Hyde Park!
