The Developing Person through Childhood and Adolescence, 9th Edition, Kathleen Stassen Berger
Edition after edition, The Developing Person Through Childhood and Adolescence re-establishes itself as the ideal chronologically organized text on child development. Exceptionally current, with a broad cultural perspective, the text's deepest connection with students comes from the captivating, compassionate, authorial voice of Kathleen Berger.
About the Author
Kathleen Stassen Berger completed her undergraduate education at Stanford University and Radcliffe College, earned her M.A.T. from Harvard University and an M.S. and Ph.D. from Yeshiva University. Her broad range of experience as an educator includes directing a preschool, teaching philosophy and humanities at the United Nations International School, teaching child and adolescent development to graduate students at Fordham University, teaching inmates earning paralegal degrees at Sing Sing Prison, and teaching undergraduates at both Montclair State University and Quinnipiac University. She has also been involved in education as the president of Community School Board in District Two in Manhattan. For over three decades, Berger has taught human development at Bronx Community College of the City University of New York. The students Kathleen Berger teaches every year come from diverse ethnic, economic, and educational backgrounds representing a wide range of interests and consistently honour her with the highest teaching evaluations. Berger's developmental texts are currently being used at nearly 700 colleges and universities in a dozen countries and in five languages. Kathleen's research interests include adolescent identity, sibling relationships, and bullying. As the mother of four daughters, as well as a new grandmother, she brings to her teaching and writing ample firsthand experience with human development.
If you are taking a child development class this is the book you should use. The only down side was someone in the class had the 8th edition and the wording between both books was almost word for word. So unless you get a class that uses the 10th edition just save the money and buy the 8th edition. For the most part the book was great and really put everything out there, I just couldn't get past how much it was a copy of edition 8.
Textbooks can be boring, overwhelming, insulting, underwhelming… This text is well written, well organized and interesting enough to hold your attention. I have enjoyed reading it and like Kathleen Stassen Berger's writing style. This is one of the better Psychology books I've had.
I like how the author has broken down the different chapters. As with most textbooks there are a few areas that sort of drag on, especially the intro chapters, but mostly due to them giving you a background and history of Child Development. As you start breaking into the other chapters the information gets much more interested and it starts to read faster. I had to get this book for a class I was taking, but I found the information also useful in my personal life. All in all, not bad for a textbook!
Definitely Definitely served the purpose for my child development class, going the different route of getting a cheaper book and also getting an A in the class is great!

Google's Android-based GPhone release is late next month under T-Mobile
People "familiar with the matter" are again chiming in with their insider accounts of the latest happenings with Google's Android operating system. We've already heard the rumor of a possible September 23rd announcement from Google and T-Mobile, and now we have sort of a confirmation for that rumor.
It is said that the first Google Android-based phone, believed to be the HTC-made Dream, is not suffering from manufacturing delays and in fact is scheduled for a late October release. It will launch initially under T-Mobile USA.
Analysts have predicted that the first Android-based smartphone will sell up to at least 300,000 to 500,000 units, but its manufacturer, HTC, was confident enough to forecast double that figure. It shows how confident they are about their product.
The phone itself is also expected to be somewhat a large device, and as seen in earlier leaked HTC Dream photos, has a large touchscreen and slide-out QWERTY keyboard.
We're only one week away from September 23rd, so expect more news to come out about this as the date draws near.

MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. — Temperatures in the upper 90s and a headwind that reached over 20 mph proved to have no effect on Anthony Young and Natalie Zidd.
The Medina County tandem both advanced in their respective events Tuesday afternoon at the World Youth Track and Field Trials and will compete for a chance to qualify for the U.S. Junior World Team that will compete next month in France.
"I think I run a little better in cool weather," joked Zidd, who ran the sixth-fastest time in the 800. "It wasn't bad at all. Anthony told me how the 100 was earlier in the day and it was rough because there was no wind. But by the time I ran the 800 and he ran the 200, there was a wind coming from the beach."
The wind, according to Zidd, provided enough cool air to counter the high humidity helping the incoming Highland senior to finish in 2:14.02.
The race was Zidd's second since finishing fifth at the state meet earlier this month and comes on the heels of an eighth-place showing two weeks ago at the New Balance Nationals. She clocked a 2:13.70 there.
"The state meet was just a mess," she said. "I wanted to end the season on a good note and that's why I went to nationals. It was a confidence booster.
"Today went well and it felt good. It was a good race and I feel a lot better."
Zidd will compete for one of the two spots on the national team today, but will have her hands full as the field includes California's Amy Weissenbach and New Jersey's Ajee Wilson. Both have run races of 2:05 or better this season.
"I definitely will have to run a personal best," Zidd said. "This is a great group of girls and I just hope they all pull me along, so I can run a good time.
"I wasn't planning on (qualifying), but it would be nice and anything can happen."
While the wind helped Zidd, the same can't be said for Young. He ran right into the 25 mph winds that were coming off the Atlantic Ocean.
The Liverpool Township resident clocked a 21.77 to place second in his preliminary race for the 200 and had the sixth-fastest race on the day.

R&B crooner D'Angelo finally returned to the stage on Sunday, as he gave his first TV performance in over 12 years at the BET Awards 2012. Performing on the same stage as newer artists like Charles Perry and Elle Varner, D'Angelo felt almost like a throwback to "new-old school" R&B.
- BET Awards: Chante Moore's Donna Summer tribute
On Sunday, D'Angelo hit the stage silhouetted by spotlights. He performed arguably his biggest hit, "How Does It Feel," as women screamed from the audience. And although D'Angelo hasn't performed on TV in over a decade, he hasn't stopped performing across the country—and even the world. It was only six months ago, in fact, that D'Angelo performed "How Does It Feel" in Paris.
At the BET Awards 2012, D'Angelo also hit the piano to show off his versatility as an artist. D'Angelo, who performed after newer music stars like Kanye West and Nicki Minaj, is reportedly working on a new album entitled "James River."
It was clear from his performance that the audience has been starved for D'Angelo's music. During his set, artists like Common and Beyonce stood out of her seats to nod their heads and dance.
D'Angelo's BET Awards 2012 performance isn't yet available to watch online, but in the meantime, watch his recent performance of "How Does It Feel" in Paris from earlier this year.

IMF Executive Board Concludes 2007 Article IV Consultation with St. LuciaPublic Information Notice (PIN) No. 08/01
January 4, 2008
Public Information Notices (PINs) form part of the IMF's efforts to promote transparency of the IMF's views and analysis of economic developments and policies. With the consent of the country (or countries) concerned, PINs are issued after Executive Board discussions of Article IV consultations with member countries, of its surveillance of developments at the regional level, of post-program monitoring, and of ex post assessments of member countries with longer-term program engagements. PINs are also issued after Executive Board discussions of general policy matters, unless otherwise decided by the Executive Board in a particular case.
On September 26, 2007, the Executive Board of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) concluded the Article IV consultation with St. Lucia.1
Macroeconomic outcomes have strengthened significantly in recent years. Real GDP growth averaged 3¾ percent during 2003-05, and reached about 5 percent in 2006. Activity was sustained by construction and government services, both related to tourism and preparations for the Cricket World Cup (CWC). In 2007, growth is expected to slow to 3¼ percent, due
largely to weakening construction, lackluster performance of the tourism sector, and hurricane-induced damage to banana production. Inflation remains low under the regional currency board arrangement.
Fiscal imbalances remained high in 2006. Total tax revenues were strong, buoyed by reforms at customs. However, petroleum tax collection was poor (given the limited pass-through of world oil prices), and significant increases occurred in capital expenditures and wages and salaries. As a result, the overall deficit fell only slightly to 6½ percent of GDP in 2006, and gross public debt rose to 67 percent of GDP.
Following a sharp increase in 2006, the external current account deficit is expected to narrow in 2007. The deterioration (to over 32 percent of GDP) was driven by a rapid fall in both the terms of trade and tourism arrivals, and an increase in imports related to hotel construction and public
capital expenditure for the CWC. Foreign direct investment surged in 2006 (to over 23 percent of GDP), reflecting tourism-related construction. In 2007 the current account deficit is projected to narrow on account of a slowdown in tourism-related imports and a moderate rebound in exports of goods and services.
While St. Lucia's real exchange rate does not appear to be overvalued, competitiveness remains a challenge. At end-2006 the real effective exchange rate (REER) was at its lowest level in nearly 20 years, reflecting the depreciation of the U.S. dollar against major currencies, and staff analysis indicates that the REER is close to its estimated equilibrium level. However, there are challenges in maintaining external competitiveness, as real wages have increased, the terms of trade have deteriorated significantly since 2002, and in recent years St. Lucia has experienced a decline in its share of stayover visitors to the Eastern Caribbean Currency Union (ECCU).
Broad money growth remained strong in 2006, and prudential indicators point to a strengthening of the financial system. Credit to the private sector expanded by 25 percent, attributable to CWC-related activities and hotel construction. In 2007, growth in private credit is expected to slow, in line with anticipated real GDP and construction sector growth. While bank provisioning has been stable and nonperforming loans continue to decline, the credit boom has the potential to erode the quality of banking system assets, raising the importance of effective financial supervision.
There has been some progress toward strengthening the financial supervisory and regulatory framework since the 2004 ECCU regional FSAP. Amendments to the uniform Banking Act were passed in December 2006, enhancing ECCB regulatory powers and requiring banks to provision for nonperforming government loans. The authorities have bolstered supervision of nonbanks through the strengthening of the Financial Services Supervision Unit, and legislation governing cooperatives, money services institutions and domestic insurance is expected to be passed by end-2007. However, progress has been slow in developing a broad supervisory framework to regulate all nonbank financial intermediaries, and while a Single Regulatory Unit for nonbanks was approved by Cabinet in 2006, it has yet to be fully implemented.
There has also been progress in implementing broad structural reforms. On fiscal issues, the authorities intend to enhance revenue-raising by the introduction of a more flexible mechanism for retail fuel pricing and a market valuation-based property tax (both in 2008), and a value-added tax (in 2009). The erosion of trade preferences for bananas has reduced incomes and employment prospects for poor rural households, and the authorities have attempted to bolster the country's social safety net to alleviate poverty. St. Lucia is one of the world's most disaster-prone countries, and has made good strides in bolstering national disaster mitigation and preparedness, including by the enhancement of the National Emergency Management Organization, improvements to the national disaster response plan, and participation in regional risk pooling.
Executive Board Assessment
Directors welcomed St. Lucia's recent strong economic performance, marked by robust growth and low inflation. At the same time, Directors noted that the country faces important challenges, including the need to diversify the economy, lower unemployment, and reduce the vulnerability to economic shocks. They encouraged the authorities to build on the country's strong foundations, and to continue to work toward the sustained implementation of prudent fiscal policies and structural reforms.
Directors stressed that fiscal consolidation and reforms are needed to maintain a sustainable public debt/GDP ratio and enhance fiscal flexibility to respond to exogenous shocks, while permitting effective public investment and social spending. They welcomed the authorities' plans to boost revenue through the introduction of a value-added tax, more flexible retail fuel pricing to achieve greater pass through of oil price increases, property tax assessments based on market values, and the improvement of tax administration. Directors recommended that tax incentives be rationalized to reduce revenue losses and promote investment more effectively. Directors also called for greater expenditure restraint, and welcomed the authorities' intentions to reform the civil service, introduce a formal mechanism for evaluating public investments, and strengthen debt management. While they acknowledged the need for investment in tourism-related infrastructure to help diversify the economy away from banana production, Directors advised the authorities to carefully evaluate and prioritize investment projects and to seek mostly grant and highly concessional financing.
Directors considered that the fixed-exchange rate has served St. Lucia well, and that the real effective exchange rate appears in line with fundamentals. They emphasized the importance of prudent macroeconomic policies and structural reforms to maintain competitiveness and underpin the exchange rate.
Directors noted that declining non-performing loan ratios and rising profitability point to a relatively healthy financial sector. They welcomed the measures being taken to further strengthen the sector, including the planned consolidation of nonbank regulation and supervision and the improvement of the legal and institutional framework for preventing money laundering. Given the rapid growth in private sector credit and net foreign liabilities of commercial banks, Directors recommended that banks' credit quality and risk management practices be closely monitored.
Directors recognized that the erosion of trade preferences for bananas is placing a considerable burden on rural households. They supported the authorities' plans to provide well-targeted assistance to the most affected while seeking to restructure the economy away from banana production. They were encouraged by the relatively low cost of doing business in St. Lucia, and underlined the importance of labor retraining and increasing labor market flexibility. Directors stressed the importance of the timely disbursement by donors of the substantial aid committed to St. Lucia in support of the economic restructuring.
Directors welcomed the authorities' commitment to regional cooperation and integration. In this regard, they commended St. Lucia's progress in implementing the requirements of the Caribbean Single Market and Economy, and in removing non-tariff barriers.
Directors supported the authorities' ongoing efforts to mitigate the economic impact of natural disasters, including through the regional pooling of catastrophe risk.
Directors encouraged the authorities to continue to improve the quality and timeliness of economic and social statistics, especially the national accounts, the public sector fiscal accounts, and the balance of payments. They supported Fund technical assistance for this purpose.

FRESNO, Calif. --- Coming back from a 3-1 deficit, the Fresno State women's tennis team rallied to defeat UNLV 4-3 in the quarterfinals of the Mountain West Women's Tennis Championship on Saturday afternoon.
"A heroic effort by our girls for our first Mountain West conference tournament win in our short history," said Fresno State head coach Ryan Stotland, whose team has now won 10 straight matches and are 15-8 overall. "We played the defending champions and credit to UNLV, they played like champs today, it was a fantastic match. It came down to a couple of points and I couldn't be prouder of the girls for crawling back and getting this historic win. We look forward to another tough battle tonight."
Advancing to the semifinals of the tournament, the top seeded Bulldogs are set to face fifth-seed Wyoming this evening at Sierra Sport and Racquet Club. The start time will be at approximately 7:30 p.m.
Sophomore Anneka Watts played a pivotal role in the Bulldogs comeback, winning her singles point at the No. 5 slate (6-4, 5-7, 6-4) and the match-clinching point at the No. 1 doubles spot alongside twin sister Sophie Watts.
Junior Aishwarya Agrawal defeated Iren Kotseva of UNLV in straight sets at No. 3 singles (6-1, 6-2). Junior Anne Susdorf came from behind to win the tying point of the day on court six over Anett Ferenczi-Bako (4-6, 6-3, 6-1).

Snow activities
Victoria is an ideal place for snow-based activities, whether it be skiing, snowboarding, tobogganing, or just sight seeing or building a snowman. The Victorian High Country region is home to three major ski resorts - Falls Creek, Mount Buller and Mount Hotham. Each resort has accommodation to suit all budgets, shopping, restaurants, nightlife and even day spas.
All types of skiers and snowboarders are catered for, with runs to suit all abilities. For those just starting out, there are skiing and snowboarding lessons available. Equipment can be bought or hired on the mountains. All three resorts also have terrain parks for freestyle skiers and boarders. Sliding down the slopes on a tube or toboggan requires less skill than some other snow activities but is still lots of fun. Each resort has toboggan parks and Falls Creek and Mount Buller also have tube parks. Each also offers snow shoe tours for a more sedate way of enjoying the snow gum forests and spectacular views on the mountains.
Falls Creek
The largest of the resorts is Falls Creek. Located by the Bogong High Plains, it is accessed from the north-east of the state via Mount Beauty. For alpine skiers and boarders, there are fourteen lifts and over 90 runs to choose from, while cross country skiers can enjoy a network of 65km of groomed trails. For something a bit different, try kiteboarding, snow biking or a snowmobile tour.
Falls Creek is also the site of the annual Kangaroo Hoppet cross country race, the premier race of its type in Australia. The event is held on the last Saturday in August each year and covers a distance of 42 kilometres. It is part of the Worldloppet series of international cross country ski events, held in a number of countries around the globe. There are also shorter races of 21 and 7 kilometres on offer.
Further information:
- Falls Creek: www.fallscreek.com.au
- Kangaroo Hoppet: www.hoppet.com.au
Mount Buller
Only a three hour drive from Melbourne, Mount Buller is the most easily accessible of Victoria's major ski resorts for those coming from the state's capital. Access is via Mansfield.
Better known for alpine skiing, there are 9 kilometres of cross country trails. Twenty-five lifts give skiers and boarders access to over 80 downhill runs. For a change from the usual skis, try telemark (free heel) skis, or figgles which are short skis also known as skiboards. Both can be hired on Mount Buller, and telemarking lessons are also available.
Further information:
- Mount Buller: www.mtbuller.com.au
Mount Hotham and Dinner Plain
Mount Hotham village is set atop a ridge overlooking the surrounding countryside and provides superb views of the Alpine National Park. It can be reached from either north-east Victoria via Bright and Harrietville or Gippsland via Omeo. The Great Alpine Road, which connects these two parts of the state, passes through the village. Or for a quicker trip to the mountain, there are flights to Mount Hotham airport during the ski season.
At Mount Hotham, there are more than 80 runs on offer, with 13 lifts in operation when conditions are at their peak. For cross country skiing, there are over 35 kilometres of trails at Hotham and nearby Dinner Plain. At Dinner Plain, you can also take a snow sled dog tour. Other activities at Hotham include kids' mini snowmobile rides and scenic helicopter flights.
Further information:
- Mount Hotham: www.mthotham.com.au
- Dinner Plain: www.visitdinnerplain.com.au
Mount Baw Baw
On Mount Baw Baw there are several different accommodation options available on the mountain, ranging from lodges to hotels. It is the closest alpine resort to Melbourne, located 160 kilometres east of the city. It is also accessible via Gippsland's Latrobe Valley. With around 30 hectares of skiing area, it is much smaller than the main resorts, which each cover at least 300 hectares. Its lower elevation means that the slopes are gentler, with most of its runs graded for either beginner or intermediate skiers. There are lessons available for those wanting to improve their skills. There are 10 kilometres of groomed trails for cross country skiers, giving access to places including the Baw Baw Plateau and Mount St Gwinear, or for a slower tour, don snow shoes for a walk on the snow. For freestyle skiers and boarders, the features at the Cactus Rail Park include rails and kick boxes. Another feature at Baw Baw is the Big Air Bag, a giant air cushion which provides a soft landing for skiers and boarders practising aerial stunts. Sled dog tours are also available.

Bulls See a Strong Summer for Verizon Communications Inc.
Schaeffer's Investment Research
Options activity for VZ surged yesterday.
Verizon Communications Inc.
(NYSE:VZ) experienced a surge of activity in its options pits yesterday, with total volume of 2.7 times the daily norm. More specifically, 35,000 calls -- three times the daily norm -- and 17,000 puts changed hands over the course of the session.
Yesterday's most active option for VZ was the August 55 call, where 5,236 contracts crossed at a volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of $0.20. More than three-fourths of the contracts went off at the ask price, volume exceeded open interest, and open interest added 4,680 positions overnight, collectively conveying heavy buy-to-open activity.
With this play, yesterday's call buyers anticipate VZ will hurdle past its multi-year high of $54.31 by the close on August 16, when the option expires. Specifically, they expect VZ to finish north of the breakeven price of $55.20 (strike price plus the VWAP), territory unreached in over 10 years. Therefore, if VZ continues to linger below the 55 strike, the call buyers could lose, at most, the initial premium paid per contract.
On the charts, Verizon Communications Inc. is up 16.1% year-to-date. However, since hitting its aforementioned multi-year peak on April 30, the stock plummeted 12% to $47.77 on Monday. VZ is currently in bounce-back mode, however, and at last check, stood at $50.23.
Overall activity in VZ's options pits seems to be bullishly skewed. In fact, during the past two weeks, speculators have bought to open almost two calls for every put, according to the stock's International Securities Exchange (ISE), Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE), and NASDAQ OMX PHLX (PHLX) 10-day call/put volume ratio of 1.88. This ratio ranks in the 89th percentile of its annual range, meaning calls are being snatched up over puts at a higher-than-usual pace. Likewise, VZ's Schaeffer's put/call open interest ratio (SOIR) of 0.93 ranks just 10% above its annual nadir, indicating that put open interest, relative to call open interest, is at a near-annual low for options expiring in the next three months.
Outside the options pits, the brokerage bunch holds skeptical-to-bullish sentiment toward VZ. Of the 27 analysts weighing in, 14 endorse the stock as a "buy" or better, while 13 give it a lukewarm "hold" rating.

Paul Pierce Already Bringing Swagger To The Brooklyn Nets
Paul Pierce's bravado is disturbing the New York Knicks and giving the Brooklyn Nets a new Identity (Photo: www.newsday.com)
Paul Pierce wasted very little time changing the identity of the Brooklyn Nets after his arrival this summer via a trade with the Boston Celtics. Shortly after the trade he began making bold statements about the Nets cross town rivals, the New York Knicks. In July while appearing on ESPN NewYork 98.7 FM's "The Michael Kay Show," Pierce stated, "Everybody knows how much I disliked the Knicks when I was with the Celtics, but I think it's grown to another level, I think it's time for the Nets to start running this city."
Follow Us :
Pierce continued his attack on the Knicks in a July interview with Complex Magazine. Where he again impressed upon the interviewer that the Nets are going to be the aggressors in this rivalry next season and boasted that the team will become more popular than the Knicks in the Big Apple, saying "Oh yeah. Right now it might be like 70-30 but we're gonna push that the other way."
His brash statements have caught the attention of Knicks players, with Raymond Felton responding in early August to SLAM magazine that the Nets "will never take over the city, because we've got 'New York' on our chest. They've got 'Brooklyn' on their chest, and we've got 'New York'. They can say Brooklyn this, Brooklyn that, they got KG, they got Paul Pierce-OK, they're going to be good, we know that. But they're also going to be an older team as well. They're not going to have the youth that they had last year. They'll never take over the city." Felton also acknowledged the good nature of the ribbing the Knicks are getting from Pierce. "He's just trying to talk, talk, and talk, to fuel the rivalry, which is good. I love it, I think it's good for us, it's good for the whole state, and it's good. So, whatever -- I love it."
However, Felton's teammate J.R. Smith is not taking Pierce's comments the same way, and has struck a more serious tone in comments he made recently to ESPN New York. "I just look at him as a bitter person just getting out of Boston. He doesn't really know what New York is all about. He's been playing in Boston his whole career. He just knows that his words have consequences and he's going to have to pay for them."
Whatever the consequences of Pierce's commentaries about the Nets-Knicks rivalry, he has brought a new identity to the Nets, and the their journey through the 2013-14 schedule should be one of most exciting storylines of the upcoming NBA season.

Syracuse 5 Indianapolis 2
• Tatusko (W, 4-4) 6IP, 5H, 2R, 2ER, 4BB, 7K, HR
• Crotta (SV, 3) 1⅔ IP, 1H, 0R, 0BB, K
• Walters 4-4, 2R, 3B, HR, 2RBI
• Moore 2-3, R, BB,
• Rhymes 2-4, RBI, CS
Zach Walters was a double shy of the cycle while Ryan Tatusko turned in a quality start as Syracuse defeated Indianapolis, 5-2. Walters went 4-for-4 with a triple and a HR, driving in two — his first four-hit game and the fourth time he's come within one hit of the statistical feat. Tatusko gave up a two-run blast in the second but went six innings, with five hits, four walks and seven strikeouts as he evened up his record at 4-4. He got some help from the defense as the Chiefs turned three double plays, including a 9-2 DP when Corey Brown (who also hit his 15th HR) snagged a foul fly and gunned down the runner to end the 2nd inning.
Roster move: RHP Drew Storen optioned from Washington; C Sam Palace reassigned from Hagerstown.
Harrisburg 7 Portland 5
• Ray 5IP, 4H, 3R, 2ER, BB, K
• Perry (BS, 2; W, 1-3) 1⅔ IP, 1H, 0R, BB, 0K, 2-1 IR-S
• Souza 2-3, R, 2-2B (left due to hip injury)
• Goodwin 1-1, 2R, BB, HR, RBI
• Hood 2-4, 2B, 3B, 2RBI
The Senators blew a 5-3 lead in the bottom of 8th but got them back with two in the top of the 9th for a 7-5 win, their fourth straight. Starter Robbie Ray recovered from a six-run meltdown in his previous outing to turn in five innings, giving up three runs (two earned) on four hits and a walk. Ryan Perry got the dreaded blown-save win, though he came in after a double-error that put the tying run on third in the 8th and pitched a scoreless 9th. Steve Souza started in CF and doubled twice in three at-bats, but left due to a hip injury. His replacement, Brian Goodwin, walked and homered in the 9th. As a team, the Senators registered 12 hits but were just 3-for-16 with RISP.
Potomac 6 Lynchburg 1
• Solis (W, 1-0) 5IP, 4H, 0R, BB, 3K
• Holt (H, 3) 2⅓ IP, 0H, 0R, BB, K
• Dykstra 1-2, R, 2B, 3BB, SB
• Keyes 2-5, R, RBI, SB
The Nationals can score five times in the 9th and break open a 1-0 game. Well, Potomac anyway as the P-Nats did just that for a 6-1 win over the Hillcats. Sammy Solis got the win with five scoreless innings, allowing four hits and a walk. Greg Holt got the next seven outs for his third hold and his 8th scoreless outing in his last 10 appearances. Two-run doubles by Justin Miller and Caleb Ramsey highlighted the 9th as Potomac collected four of its seven hits in the final frame. Robert Benincasa, who got the last two outs on the 8th, notched his ninth save though he let up a run in the 9th on a triple and a single before retiring the final three batters.
Delmarva 5 Hagerstown 1
• P. Encarnacion (L, 7-7) 6IP, 6H, 3R, 0ER, 2BB, 6K
• Henke 1IP, 0H, 0R, 0BB, K
• Renda 2-4, R, 2B, SB
• Piwinica-Worms 2-4, 2B, SB
The Shorebirds made the Suns pay for their mistakes, following both errors with triples to score three unearned runs in a 5-1 Delmarva win over Hagerstown. Pedro Encarnacion saw his won-loss record fall to 7-7 with those three runs allowed on six hits and two walks over six innings. The 22-y.o. struck out six. The offense notched nine hits, with Tony Renda, Will Piwinica-Worms and Craig Manuel each going 2-for-4, but left nine baserunners on.
State College 4 Auburn 1
• Williams (L, 0-5) 6IP, 8H, 4R, 4ER, 2BB, 4K
• Bafidis 2IP, 1H, 0R, 0BB, 2K
• Gunter 3-4, R
• W. Rodriguez 2-4, SB
Deion Williams pitched a career-high six innings, but the proverbial one bad inning did him in as State College spiked Auburn, 4-1. Williams gave up five of his eight hits in the four-run 3rd. He walked two and struck out four, finishing his outing with one hit over three scoreless innings. Cody Gunter led the nine-hit Doubledays offense with a 3-for-4 night, followed by Wilman Rodriguez's 2-for-4 effort with a stolen base.
GCL Mets 5 GCL Nationals 4
• Giolito (L, 0-1) 2⅔ IP, 5H, 4R, 4ER, BB, 3K
• Silvestre 3⅓ IP, 1H, 0R, 2BB, 4K, 1-0 IR-S
• R. Encarnacion 3-4, R, 2B, OF assist at 2B
• Marmolejos-Diaz 1-4, 2B, BB, RBI
The G-Nats rallied for three in the 9th but left the tying run at second, losing to the G-Mets 5-4 and ending an eight-game win streak. Lucas Giolito made it out of the 1st, through the 2nd, but was lifted with two outs in the third. The Nats' 2012 1st round pick gave up four runs on five hits and a walk while striking out three. Randy Encarnacion led the G-Nats attack with a double and two singles, but just one of the team's eight hits came in 11 RISP chances as the team stranded 11 baserunners total.
DSL Nationals 10 DSL Brewers 3
• Morales 5IP, 4H, 2R, 2ER, 0BB, 5K, 2HR
• J. Ramirez (W, 1-1) 3IP, 3H, R, ER, BB, 2K
• Aguero 3-4, 3R, RBI, SB
• Florentino 3-5, 2R, 3B, RBI
• Serrata 2-4, 2RBI
The D-Nats broke open a 2-2 game with a three-spot in the 6th and four more in the 7th as they flattened the D-Brewers, 10-3. Jose Morales gave up two solo home runs and four hits total, walked none, and struck out five in his third start. The win went to reliever Jean Ramirez, who allowed a run over three innings on three hits and a walk. "Fred" Aguero continues to swing a hot bat, going 3-for-4 with three runs scored, an RBI, and a stolen base. The D-Nats took advantage of five errors to score 10 times on 11 hits and two walks.

Add in Storen, Caleb Clay who deserves a full look-see. Solano. I'd like to see Rahl but that will likely never happen.
Walters and Rahl are not on the 40 man. Don't forget Espinosa if he and Storen are still in AAA.Moore likely to go before Marrerro. Also Kobernis gives you flexibility between infield and outfield.
Good to see Solis doing his thing in Potomac. The guy seems to be a winner — the PNats have won the game in all of his starts this year. Although I live in Maryland, his parents are friends of mine and I follow his career pretty closely. Since the start of his pro career including the AZ fall league, his team is 29-11 in games that he has started as a pro — a .729 winning percentage. His own won/loss record as a pro is 12-3 or .800. If starting pitchers are supposed to give the team a chance to win, then he does his job pretty damn well. His numbers aren't off the charts but Lord knows we could use some more guys who help win games on the Nats. I hope to see him move up to Harrisburg this year.
Every time I check in on AAA, I want to get excited about someone, anyone ready to help Nats in hitting department. While Marrero/Moore have tantalized, we've seen them both struggle during call ups. I continue to check in and hope on both Brown and Walters and their flashes of power and what should be broad defensive skills either in OF (Brown) or IF (assuming Walters could be play solid 2B/3B and emergency SS back up).
For me, what kills my excitement for both Brown and Walters is their awful OBA – 305 and 286 for Walters. I can only imagine how frustrating it would be to see them struggle in this way with Nats. Although, even as I write this, I can't help but be biased to testing out an unknown MLB quantity (Power #'s with Walters 25 HR's YTD) over Chad Tracy's solid professionalism but lacklustre results. Might not Walters be the the guy who can give Nats power bat off the bench during stretch run? Probably not, but it would be more enjoyable to watch than Chad Tracy and we'll learn more about 2014 potential.
Walters is not on the 40 man roster. He also is leading the IL in errors. Brown has been up before with lackluster results. Moore is starting to hit again now that he is getting regular work. The problem with him is all his positions are filled LF, RF, 1B. He also isn't good enough to be a true late inning defensive replacement. He also isn't base running replacement. The leading hitters on the team are Rahl, Perez, and Kobernus. Rahl is 7th in the IL in hitting in spite of the Chiefs jerking him around.He has hit in every spot in the lineup most recently 8th in front of the pitcher or 7th. He is getting benched in favor of players on the 40 man who aren't playing as well. Perez is 13th and plays almost every day and hits leadoff. Kobernus is hitting .308 the same as Rahl but with too few at bats to qualify. He is leading the team in stolen bases.
All of these players could be late inning replacements and can run the bases well. They all are plus runners. Perez and Kobernus have been up and found lacking. Rahl isn't on the 40 man and at 29 yrs old seems to have been written off despite godd production. Of course Bernadina and Tracey haven't produced much either!
Sensfan – thanks. Will track Rahl a bit more but the guy doesn't take any walks so his BA is effectively his On Base Average – same thing with Perez. You are right, Kobernus is having a solid season – with plus 360 OBA and the SB's.
Maybe Walters turns the corner as a hitter in the mold of M Morse. 25 HR's for an IF is solid pop. Even if he has the same # of errors as HR's.


text: Jan 17, 2013 18:20 New Orleans Nightingales perform at Preservation Hall New Orleans Nightingales perform at Preservation Hall Ingrid Lucia Michael Farrar| Special to theadvocate.com Dec. 4, 2012; 5:36 p.m. Comments When Ingrid Lucia takes the stage as one of the featured vocalists of the New Orleans Nightingales, a showcase of female singers performing at Preservation Hall on Dec. 8., she displays the same sly charm learned growing up as a street musician in the Crescent City. "My dad started a family band, so we used to play on Jackson Square and on Royal Street. The band started when I was 11, so New Orleans music was always a big influence on me," Lucia said, "I love New Orleans for so many reasons, and the music is a big part of it." That love of the city came largely from her father, Poppa Neutrino, who launched the Flying Neutrinos band to play vintage music on the streets of the French Quarter. This allowed Ingrid and her siblings to hone their musical skills with the help of the New Orleans musician community. "So many of the people that I've played with now were teachers to us when we were kids, like Craig 'Sparky' Klein (trombonist) and General French. A lot of players would come through and sit in with our family band to play and show us a note or two, and it was very valuable," Lucia said. Lucia eventually moved to New York, and even toured internationally before the desire to return to New Orleans became too strong. "I came back to New Orleans because I wanted to play with people that I had fun playing with and who inspired me and gave me that extra 'oomph' to want to keep performing," Lucia said. That affiliation with the city's musicians let her tap into a great talent pool for the New Orleans Nightingales, which showcases local female singers like Sophie Lee, Lena Prima, Banu Gibson and many others. Lucia describes the Nightingales as a mix of New Orleans roots music, second line, swing, and shuffle blues. Along with her vocal talent, Lucia is also a songwriter who has created songs that seem to arrive as almost fully formed musical stories. "Sometimes the idea will just come right into your head with a beginning, a middle and an end," she said. "Those are usually the best songs, because it's almost like a message being sent to you, and if you're quick enough to grab it, it's incredible." In addition to the music, another thing Lucia came to appreciate about her father was his beatnik approach to life, which led him to build a series of raft shelters on the waterways to be used as their family residence. "We lived in houses for a few months at a time, or boats or buses. But my dad was a huge adventurer, so boat living was a big part of our upbringing," Lucia said. "He always believed that rent was what kept a man down from following his dreams. He learned that the waterways were open territory, so he started building rafts and boats from the time I was a little kid." Lucia's father passed away a year and a half ago, and Lucia believes that the Flying Neutrinos family band may return someday. For now, however, she is excited to perform with the New Orleans Nightingales. "It makes you want to 'up your game' and put on a really good show," she said. "We've got a great lineup of players, and we're going to get rid of the fat and get to the great part of the music." The New Orleans Nightingales featuring Ingrid Lucia performs at Preservation Hall, 726 St. Peter St., Saturday, Dec 8. For more info go to NewOrleansNightingales.com.

Although it feels like winter in most of the country, spring begins with the vernal equinox on March 20, 2014 at 12:57 p.m. EDT, according to the Farmers Almanac.
As the days grow longer and the temperatures warmer, families spend more time outdoors. Here are 10 ways for your family to welcome spring.
Decorate an Easter egg tree with plastic eggs. Make ties from ribbon, string or yarn and place inside open eggs. This is especially pretty in a dogwood, cherry or other spring flowering tree.
Add outdoor exercise to your family's daily routine. Take up cycling or hiking or just take long walks at a local park, playground or walking trail. Being outdoors improves your mood and exercise improves your health.
Watch for the changing signs of spring in your yard. Hang bird feeders and bird houses in your yard and watch for different species of birds. Pick up a bird guide visit the National Audubon Society website.
Plan a spring break vacation. Even if your kids lose part of spring break due to snow make-up days, you can enjoy a long weekend of fun outdoors.
Kids love helping grow flowers. Start seeds now so your bedding flowers will be ready to put out after danger of frost. Seeds should be started inside about six weeks before the last frost date in your location.
Plant a spring blooming tree or shrub in your yard. Dogwood, cherry and pear trees offer beautiful spring blossoms. Forsythia, lilac and azalea bushes add bright colors to your yard.
Sign your child up for spring sports. Soccer, baseball and softball are three of the favorite spring sports for kids. Check with your local YMCA, parks and recreation department or youth sports league.
Purchase season tickets to the nearest amusement park. Many parks offer spring specials before the season begins. Season tickets are a great alternative to candy in Easter baskets.
Make plans to attend a professional baseball game with your family. If your city has a minor league team, inquire about season passes. Many baseball teams offer special kids season passes and meet and greet sessions with the players.
Plan a family camping trip. You don't need a tent or camper at many campgrounds and state parks. Reserve a cabin for a weekend of family outdoor time.
Spring temperatures may still be a few weeks away, but don't let that stop you and your family from welcoming spring as you spend more time outdoors.

Party people! Join us this coming Monday, February 24 for a beautiful night with Rich Medina spinning tunes at Le Bain in NYC. Leading up to the night, we have our maestro bringing us up to speed on his favorite artists of the moment, what makes a great party, and other exciting morsels. Enjoy!
Event Details
Rich Medina DJ Set at Le Bain
Monday, February 24
Le Bain at The Standard
444 W. 13th St.
New York, NY
Giant Step: You've played at Le Bain a couple times for us now. What's your favorite part about spinning there?
Rich Medina: There are many things I love about Le Bain, but the most important factor for me is the clientele. The meat packing district is a different monster in the 21st century, so the music heads and dancers who come to the nights I do there really make me happy.
GS: What type of music can folks expect to hear you spin on the 24th?
RM: So far, we've kept the music mature and sophisticated. A bit of a tip of the hat to the NYC dance club pioneers like Larry Levan, David Mancuso and the like. Freedom music. Sounds that bring people into the light rather than fan the flames of rebellion or angst.
GS: What's been comprising your time of late? Lots of touring, recording? Tell us about it!
RM: Touring and being a dad who desires to be present is an all consuming endeavor. But I swear, being a dad is my favorite job. I've done some recording with Da Lata and a few other quiet projects I'll reveal going into the summer. But fatherhood & touring are my time eaters right about now.
GS: Can we hope for a new Rich Medina album sometime in the near future?
RM: Hell. To. The. Yes!
GS: What are some of your favorite new artists these days? Who should people be looking out for?
RM: Hiatus Kaiyote, The Internet, Rasheed Chappell, King, Black Coffee, The whole South African house music movement, Rhapsody. Jamla music & their associates, Nick Hakim, Inc. We need a whole newspaper to really answer that in full…
GS: In your opinion, what makes a great party?
RM: A great party is made up of:
- A DJ or talent who is sensitive to their audience and capable of changing plans under pressure.
- A fast and friendly bar staff who has their own clientele.
- Venue management that allows everyone on staff to do their jobs to their best strengths for the sake of the house, and who allows their clientele to believe the space was designed just for them.
- Security that will break their foot off in your ass, yet only show that when a situation that needs it takes place.
- Sound installation that's designed via the realization that talent will be showing their talent through said sound, and all the importance of that notion in an event.

Panthers sign Mueller and more news
Panthers General Manager Dale Tallon is hoping that lightning can strike twice when it comes to adding players with offensive potential whose careers have hit roadblocks due to health issues when he signed free-agent Avalance center Peter Mueller Thursday.
Whereas Tallon's 4-year, $18 million gamble on Tomas Fleischmann and his blood-clot history last summer paid off in a career-best 61-point season, his one-year deal at $1.725 million for Mueller, whose career has been downhill since his rookie season because of multiple concussions is far less riskier. Mueller, the eighth overall pick by Phoenix in 2006, had 22 goals and 54 points in 2007-08 but has had just 33 goals in 173 games since.
"We're hoping to get him back to what he was his rookie year,'' Tallon said via conference call. "He's healthy now and seems to be revitalized. We did our due diligence. He understands this is a great opportunity for him. He's a top-six forward with his size and skill and he's still young and well worth the risk for us to sign to a one-year deal.''
At 6-foot-2, 204 pounds, Mueller, a Minnesota native, has the prototypical size in the middle and versatility to play right wing that Tallon covets. Whereas Fleischmann was 28 when he joined the Panthers, Mueller is just 24.
Tallon said the Panthers medical staff put him through a thorough two-day physical this week, checking him from, "toes to nose,'' and he was given a clean bill of health.
"Hopefully, he can have the same type of production as Flash. He was brilliant,'' Tallon said. "He does have top skills and we will give him every opportunity to succeed and play him with some good players and possibly match him with [Jonathan Huberdeau and Scottie Upshall].''
Mueller, who was at his summer home in British Columbia with his wife, said he's looking at the move out of the Western Conference to an organization, "on the rise'' as a, "fresh start.''
"I'm looking forward to a fresh start. Obviously, there's no secret about my past but Dale told me what he expects of me and I'm expecting a lot from myself,'' he said. "I'm coming in here with a great attitude and am just ready to rock and roll this coming season.''
Mueller was traded from Phoenix to Colorado on March 3, 2010 for ex-Panthers Wojtek Wolski, who recently signed with the Capitals for $600,000, a huge paycut from the $4 million he made last year with the Rangers and Panthers. Mueller notched 20 points in 15 games for Colorado, but missed the entire 2010-11 season after sustaining a concussion by a hit from Rob Blake in preseason.
In just the third game of the 2011-12 season, Mueller was concussed again and sat out three months. In his fourth game back he led the Avs to a 4-3 overtime victory over the Panthers with a season-high two goals and an assist, thus leaving a favorable impression on Tallon.
Tallon also received postive feedback from two of Mueller's former teammates in Phoenix, Panthers defenseman Ed Jovanovski and forward Scottie Upshall. He believes that Mueller and his big slap shot could help fill the void on the Panthers' power play with the free-agent departures of Jason Garrison and Mikael Samuelsson.
"He can play the point on the power play,'' Tallon said. "If he can return to that level of play he exhibited his rookie year and I really liked him his draft year and the two years he played out there in Denver,'' Tallon said. "I liked his approach and how he played.''
Mueller, who also played with Panthers forward Jack Skille on the U.S. National Team Development Program from 2003-05, said he, "hasn't felt this good since coming into the league,' and won't change his physical style of play because of the concussions.
"Not at all. If I took any precautions I'd take away from my game that I bring,'' said Mueller, whose parents used to have a home in Boca Raton. "I'm just excited to play alongside a lot of skilled players and an organization on the rise. I look forward to helping the team win and also put some points on the board.''
Versteeg negotiations
Tallon said that the, "balls in their court,'' regarding negotiations with restricted free agent forward Kris Versteeg, who has an abritration hearing set for July 23.
"We'll see what they say,'' Tallon said. "Either way he's going to play here and make a lot of money.''
Bjugstad goes back to college
Panthers prospect forward Nick Bjugstad, who was believed to have a chance at making the team this year, has decided to return to the University of Minnesota for his junior season and put his pro career on hold.
"We told him to weigh the pros and cons,'' Tallon said. "Either way we stick by him and support him. He has a brilliant future for us and I'm excited for whenever it starts.''
Luongo deal still possible
Tallon said that he hasn't spoken to the Vancouver Canucks lately about disgruntled goalie Roberto Luongo returing to South Florida, but that doesn't mean the door is closed on the part-time poker player whose competing in the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas.
"I'm open to anything that makes sense as far as the Florida Panthers winning the Stanley Cup,'' Tallon said. "We'll listen to anything possible.''

Some circus-goers in St. Charles, Mo., got an up-close experience with three elephants that broke loose on Saturday. According to a March 23 Fox2now.com story, the elephants escaped during the last day of the Moolah Shriner's Circus at the St. Charles Family Arena.
Witnesses said the elephants were stomping through the parking lot, linked trunk to tail, in familiar elephant fashion. Some vehicles were damaged, but a circus spokesperson reported there were no injuries. This is truly a credit to circus and arena staff that safely corralled the elephants and protected innocent bystanders from danger.
KDVR reports that the four vehicles damaged belonged to circus employees. Two pickups and two campers were apparently significantly damaged. An eyewitness reports seeing car parts flying everywhere. From Fox2now.com:
"The elephants just mainly took the pickup trucks and moved them out. We saw car parts just being thrown up in the air. The windows were being smashed by the elephants."
This type of escape has never happened before in the history of this circus, so the company is planning to investigate what happened to avoid a recurrence.
Elephants are the fourth most dangerous animal in the world, according to AnimalDanger.com. Over 500 people are killed by the giant beasts each year.

Anyone worried about the bupmper pad?
Hello, my 5 month baby girl moves a lot in her crib at night, my question is, as she moves she must have bumped her head on the crib side, she didn't make a noise that's unusual!!! I saw it while I was combing her hair and there is a big bruise on her side just above her ears and looks identical to her hair line, I was freaked out when I saw that, yet the professionals keeps telling us not to put the crib bumpers that comes with the bedding set, they do have a good reason to, but what can I do to prevent my baby from being injured again? please help, give me a tip, I definitely don't want to suffocate my baby by putting the the bumper pads, I also don't want see any bruise on my baby?

Unless it happens repeatedly, I wouldn't worry about her bumping her head against the side of the crib. I would be concerned too if I saw a bruise on my baby! But they're alive to show you it. And ultimately it's extremely rare for a baby to suffer serious injury or repeated injury sleeping in their crib. It's safer without the bumpers. Best wishes.posted 02/07/2012 by a BabyCenter Member
I agree with the PP, as long as there is not repeat bruises and it seriously becomes a problem, I wouldn't worry too much about it, your baby just moves around a lot (my daughter is the same). Don't use bumper pads until your baby is older, good luck!posted 02/07/2012 by peanutwitt
my daughter does the same thing. i found a breathable bumper pad its not fancy or decorated but it works an is safe. good luckposted 06/25/2012 by tmarie1231
my son was always moving around so much that he kept hitting his head a few times every night. He is 10 months old now will be 11 months on the 24th of this month and i just put the bumpers on his crib a few weeks ago. my bumper pad is a breathable mesh one as well and ive had no issues with it except that it does not really stop him from hitting his head every now and then.posted 09/04/2012 by a BabyCenter Member

According to the Canadian Press on Thursday, Canadian Olympic silver medalist Ryan Cochrane of Victoria, British Columbia has won Canada's first gold medal at the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, Scotland. Cochrane won the men's 400m freestyle swimming competition.
Cochrane, who won the silver medal in the men's 1500m freestyle swimming competition at the 2012 Olympic Games in London and a bronze medal in the men's 1500m freestyle swimming competition at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, won his third Commonwealth Games gold medal in his career. At the 2010 Commonwealth Games in Delhi, India, Cochrane won the men's 400m and men's 1500m freestyle swimming events.
On Thursday in the men's 400m freestyle swimming final, Cochrane posted a winning time of 3:43.46. David McKeon of Australia won the silver medal with a time of 3:44.09. James Guy of England won the bronze medal with a time of 3:44.58.
Cochrane's victory on Thursday however was by no means easy. McKeon had a significant lead at the 300m mark, but it seemed that McKeon went out too hard too early and had nothing more in the tank for the last quarter of the race.
Cochrane's victory was one of two gold medals won by team Canada on Thursday. Canada's other gold medal came in team rhythmic gymnastics. The Canadian team was represented by Patricia Bezzoubenko and Annabelle Kovacs of Vancouver, British Columbia and Maria Kitkarska of Montreal, Quebec.
The Canadians had a dominating performance in Glasgow. They posted the highest score in all four disciplines--rope, hoop, ball and ribbon and had an overall score of 141.45. Their highest score came in rope at 43.15 points. Wales won the silver medal with a score of 136.625 and Malaysia won the bronze medal with a score of 135.825.
Team Canada also won a silver medal from Kristen Sweetland of Nanaimo, British Columbia in the women's triathlon and a bronze medal by the women's 4x100m relay freestyle swim team. The Canadian freestyle swim team was led by Olympian Victoria Poon of Montreal.

Santa Claus is coming to town and there's a beer lover on the list! Or perhaps some subtle hints need to be dropped to help someone else's shopping. In Part III of Christmas shopping for beer lovers, we offer:
THE BIGGIES: Dream big in craft beer!
It's a table. It's a file cabinet. No, it's a beer fridge!
This might be one of the coolest beer gifts ever. Designed to look like actual furniture, the Man Table functions as a place to keep your beers cold. And best of all, your wife or girlfriend won't make you keep it in the garage! No more getting up to go to the fridge for a beer… it's right next to you! Check em out here.
For those that have a bar setup or want one, a kegerator is a must, especially for the homebrewer that would rather keg than bottle that homebrew. Check out Micromatic or Kegerator.com for a great selection.
Beer stools and beer signs can be great presents as well.
Who doesn't enjoy a weekend getaway or even an extended trip? There are lots of options for giving a a cool beer trip to the beer lover in your life and it can be cheaper than you think.
Almost everyone in America has a brewery within driving distance or a quick flight. Buy a weekend trip with hotel accommodations to the town of a cool brewery. Make sure to arrange a tour of the brewery and of course, some samples of the beer and guarantee a great weekend and a happy beer lover.
Travel to Beer Nirvana
If you want to go a big step further on the beer travel, then invest in a plane ticket to Denver in September when the Great American Beer Festival is in town. This is the beer lover's mecca with more than 2000 different beers served in 3 days. Make sure to get your downtown hotel room booked in advance because rooms will sell out. Tickets to the GABF go on sale in June and a ticket to the Saturday afternoon session for the awards ceremony is a must!

Travel gear
One of the toughest parts of traveling to different parts of the country and finding lots of great beers is not being able to bring some back. With all the TSA laws and concerns about whether or not the airline might break your precious cargo, bringing beer home can be a straight pain.
And that's where the WineCruzer comes in. Designed as a travel bag for wine, this carrier works great for beers, especially 22oz bombers. And no airline will break your bottles, not even one that goes with the saying, "Don't Expect Luggage To Arrive".
For a cheaper alternative, check out the Wine Diaper or a Wine Skin which is essentially a resealable bubble wrap bag for your bottle.
