"WAYANG MUSEUM TAMAN FATAHILLAH" Old Batavia - Kota Tip by RoyJava
Old Batavia - Kota, Jakarta: 35 reviews and 82 photos
To me it was Yogyakarta (see link) which raised my interests into Wayang puppets. So the Wayang Museum TAMAN FATAHILLAH is a must because of the best Wayang puppets collection at Java. See how careful some puppets are taken care of (with incense, flowers etc.) and do not forget the puppets out of India, China, Malaysia and Cambodia, too.
At one time you can see some memorials to Jan Pieterszoon Coen, founder of Batavia (ancient name of Jakarta) in the downstairs courtyard ...

By: Steven Pifer
Viktor Yanukovich, Ukraine's president, says that deepening his country's relations with the EU is a priority. Recent comments by his officials hint, however, at a turn towards Russia and the customs union Moscow has formed with Belarus and Kazakhstan. Will these hints become reality? Unlikely. Mr Yanukovich is flirting with joining the customs union as part of an effort to persuade the west to ignore Ukraine's regression on democracy.
The EU and U.S. should adhere to their values and make clear that respect for democracy and human rights is crucial to better relations between Ukraine and the West.
Ukrainian and EU negotiators agreed the terms of an association agreement in 2011, a significant part of which is a comprehensive free trade arrangement to boost Ukraine's economic integration with Europe. But the agreement has languished for more than a year, as concerns in Brussels and EU capitals grew over the decline of democracy that has taken place on Mr Yanukovich's watch. This has included the selective prosecution of former government leaders, such as Yulia Tymoshenko, a former prime minister, and election processes that have been criticised by both foreign and domestic observers.
Several EU states have indicated they would block the agreement unless Kiev improves its record on democracy. Similar concerns in Washington have led to a parallel downturn in U.S.-Ukrainian relations. Congress has even begun to talk of sanctions against Ukraine.

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- If anyone thinks the Washington Capitals are just a couple of lucky bounces away from getting back into this Eastern Conference semifinals series against the Tampa Bay Lightning, they are sadly mistaken.
And if the Capitals think that, they are truly cooked.
The Capitals outplayed, outchanced and outshot an injury-depleted Lightning team Sunday night and still found a way to lose 3-2 after Vincent Lecavalier converted on a two-on-one created by a ghastly Washington line change 6:19 into overtime.
The victory gave the Lightning a 2-0 series lead with Games 3 and 4 set for Tuesday and Wednesday in Tampa.
If you accept that winning defines character, then Sunday's victory illustrates a significant gap that has opened up between the Lightning and Capitals.
"I can sit here and you can evaluate and say there was bad bounces in both games and that, but I mean they came in here and they did the job," Washington coach Bruce Boudreau said of the Lightning. "We've got to push harder. They're playing a very disciplined game right now and they're getting most mileage out of all of their players. And they believe. They've won five in a row and they're a difficult team to play against. So we've just got to find a way."
This looked like a night when the stars would align for the Capitals in their bid to knot this series after dropping a 4-2 decision in Game 1. Veteran winger Mike Knuble and defenseman John Carlson returned the lineup, while the Lightning, still weary from their seven-game first-round series against Pittsburgh, were without regulars Pavel Kubina and Simon Gagne, both of whom were injured in Game 1.
The Capitals took it to the Lightning in the first period, dominating time of possession and forcing three penalties. But the Caps came up empty on the power play (as they would all night) and the Lightning scored a late power-play goal for the second straight game -- a rocket by Lecavalier -- to take a 1-0 lead.
The Caps dominated the second period, as well. They outshot Tampa Bay 16-3, but came up empty on three more power-play opportunities and are now 0-for-11 in the series.
Washington did manage to tie the score after a turnover by Martin St. Louis, but it was St. Louis who scored in the third period to atone for the mistake to give the Lightning a 2-1 lead.
"Yeah, I didn't like that shift," Tampa coach Guy Boucher said of the play that led to Brooks Laich's tying goal.
But he said his players knew they had made a mistake and felt badly about it.
"These guys, they're so honest. They're so dedicated that we didn't have to say anything to them," Boucher said. "They knew and they felt guilty, so I'm not surprised that Vinny went and got [that one] and Marty scored that one in the third. Our top guys, they're character guys and I have a lot of respect for them."
By the time the third period rolled around, the Lightning showed some pushback, allowing just five shots and taking the lead after St. Louis' centering pass bounced off defenseman Mike Green's skate and into the Caps' goal. It was the second straight game in which the Caps managed just five shots in the final period. One of those five Washington shots did manage to find the back of the net; Alex Ovechkin tied the score with netminder Michal Neuvirth on the bench for the extra attacker.
The Capitals buzzed in the opening minutes of overtime and forced netminder Dwayne Roloson into a number of difficult saves (he stopped 35 of 37 on the night), and it looked like it would simply be a matter of time before the Capitals tied the series.
"I thought we had the momentum, quite frankly, for about 45 minutes of that game," Boudreau said. "But I felt very comfortable going into overtime."
But then, the Caps got caught on a bad line change. Tampa defenseman Randy Jones, who was in the lineup for Kubina, sent a long pass to Teddy Purcell to set up a 2-on-1 with Lecavalier who made no mistake from in close on Neuvirth.
"It was a bad change and, at the same time, the guys that were coming on didn't come anywhere near as quick as they should have, but it was a combination," Boudreau said.
Scott Hannan, one of the defensemen who was heading to the bench, took responsibility.
"I was a little tired, and I thought I could get off in time, and I couldn't," he said. "It was a bad play. It's frustrating. It just shows, in the playoffs, you make mistakes and it'll cost you. I'll take the blame for that. I should have stayed on the ice, and it probably would have been a dead play, maybe a two-on-two."
These Stanley Cup playoffs have become a nightly exercise in revealing the fine line between success and failure, winning and losing.
The Tampa Bay Lightning have put on a clinic in staying on the right side of that line for five straight games now. They are 4-1 on the road after Sunday's gutsy victory.
Have they been lucky? Sure. But they could have wilted when they were being badly outplayed through the first two periods. They didn't. They could have wilted when Ovechkin tied the game. But they didn't. They could have wilted when the Caps came charging out in overtime. But they didn't.
They found the way that has thus far eluded the Capitals.
"For a goal to go in the last minute, it's always a little hard, but we did a good job regrouping," said Ryan Malone, who picked up an assist on the Lightning's opening goal. "We were disappointed in the second period, the way that we played, because we did get away from our game. We realized that and I thought in the third we played a much better period and got back to our game. That's what we're about. We're worried about ourselves and not what the other team's doing."
If winning does define character, then the Lightning are chock full of it.
The Capitals? The jury is still out, although they're getting ready to convict unless Washington can somehow manage to convert on the power play and take advantage of their superior skill and an opponent that is beat up and weary.
They have yet to do that.
The next three days will go a long way in defining just what this Capitals team is made of.
"The series is not over," Ovechkin said. "We're going there and we're going to win two games and it's going to be hard, but right now, in this situation, we have to win."

My church uses Quickbooks 2005. They have a backup to a 512 MB thumbdrive. They have been backing up about every week for the past 18 months. The filesize of the backups have grown from 14 MB to about 23 MB.
I was planning on giving them a 1 or 2 GB thumb drive and calling it a day, but when I dumped this info into Excel and projected out the growth rate, I found that we'll hit 1 GB in July, and 10 GB in about another 18 months, and then 100 GB about 18 months after that.
It looks to me like Quickbooks saves all the transactions with every backup. Is there a way to force incremental backups? If this is the way it is, that's fine, but I'd rather not keep buying another order of magnitude of storage space every 18 months. Can I safely delete the previous backups, and just keep the recent 2 or 3 months worth?
Here are the graphs of my data:
It looks to me like a linear growth rate of the individual backups, and an exponential growth rate of the storage space required.

The problem with shopping at Ikea — besides the couples counseling you'll need and the literal stereotype of yuppie adulthood you'll be snapping together like so much Grundtal pieces — is that your apartment ends up looking exactly the same as everyone else's in Brooklyn. This is an understandable trade off for low-cost, accessible, one-stop shopping that comes with a side of cheap meatballs. The same could be said of shopping at Target or any other assemble-at-home furniture seller, the ones you find scattered around the city or huddled in gangs at the opposite ends of vast oceans of parking lots in the suburbs. The one-stop shopping angle is enticing: you buy a piece of furniture, that matches other furniture, and goes with that accent wall, and, after a few frustrating grunts and screaming at the instruction manual, you screw together a bedroom set that looks like a lot of other bedroom sets, bing bang boom.
To avoid this trap of sameness, maybe instead you can turn to the internet to try to order things, but then there's the searching, and the pretending not to search when your boss walks by your desk, and the waiting, and the hoping to be home at the exact right moment to catch the UPS guy, who makes his rounds with ninja assassin levels of sneakiness. You can try Craigslist, but then there's the fear of bed bugs or being sex murdered over a futon, which seems like a hassle. (more…)

Farewell to a good friend
Published: Saturday, July 28, 2001 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, July 27, 2001 at 11:00 p.m.
On Tuesday, the world lost more than just another former NFL player. It lost a good, strong, family man. And I lost a good friend.
Johnny Carter collapsed and died Tuesday, doing the two things he loved most: spending time with his family and working out on the football field.
Johnny was the type of guy who if you met him once, you never forgot him.
I first met Johnny in 1998, when I first moved to Houma. Later, our wives and kids all became friends and we, along with my brother- and sister-in-law and their two children, became one big fun-loving group. Whether it was playing cards (spades in particular), board games or just hanging out and "chillin,' " it was never a dull time whenever we were together.
And whenever my journeys or assignments took me over to Terrebonne High School, where his oldest son, Johnathan, is one hell of a left guard on the football team, I was sure to run into Johnny. That was always good for a few laughs.
Johnny had what most people call an "infectious" personality.
In other words, he was always so genuinely warm, friendly and happy that no matter how miserable of mood you were in, you couldn't help but be happy around him. There was much more to Johnny than what he did on the football field, which was pretty incredible in its own right.
At Terrebonne, Johnny's exploits were so great that not only did he lead the Tigers to a state championship appearance in 1983, but earned a scholarship to Grambling State University to play for the legendary Eddie Robinson.
Two years ago, he was selected by The Courier as one of the area's greatest athletes of the 20th century. But after a brief, injury-shortened career in the NFL and the World League of American Football (now NFL-Europe), Johnny came back home and assumed his greatest role: family man. Johnny was a devoted husband to his wife, Suzanne, and their four kids, 16-year-old Johnathan, 12-year-old Santina, 6-year-old Shelayne and 7-month-old Johnny III (affectionately known as Trez). He was also a friend to many, all of whom miss him terribly and share the pain of his family. I know it's a cliche' and it may sound corny, but Johnny was the type of guy that if you needed him for anything, he would be right there.
If he was going out, he'd call you to see if you wanted to roll too.
Or if he, Suzanne and the kids were just sitting around the house, he'd invite you over.
And if he had something, it was yours as well. He was a real down to earth guy. But most of all, he did everything he could to make sure his family was happy.
He was a good father, showing his kids and their friends the type of values his mother instilled in him. All the time he and Suzanne were about as inseparable as Batman and Robin. Where one went, the other was sure to be around. Well, while the Saints are opening training camp this morning, I'll be saying good-bye to a good friend. One that I miss dearly already.
Bye, Johnny. It was a hell of a ride. I'll see you again one day.
John T. Stewart is a sports writer for The Courier. He can be reached at 857-2239 or by e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Ten MLB offensive turnarounds you can bank on
In the world of fantasy baseball, it pays to keep an eye on the players who are mired in serious slumps. The frustrated owners of these struggling superstars may be getting desperate, and some simple statistical analysis and historical data can help you take advantage of these situations if these owners are willing to trade. Here are ten players poised for big turnarounds during the remainder of 2011. None of these guys will be available on the waiver wire, but if you package an overachieving pitcher and a breakout guy hanging on the edge of a major regression, you might land one of these studs just in time for their statistical spin-o-rama.
Albert Pujols, STL – It's fascinating that the Cards are atop the NL Central without ace Adam Wainwright or a significant contribution from Pujols – one of the best hitters the game's ever seen. Perhaps Pujols has lost a bit of confidence, or he's showing signs of age, but there's almost no way he doesn't turn around this slow start into solid numbers by the All-Star Break. With just 12 extra base hits so far this year, Pujols is mired in both an extended power outage and relative slump (his .269 AVG is 60 points below his career mark) that's quite peculiar. He's hitting ground balls at a career high rate (50.6%) and walking only 9.5% of the time (his career rate is 13.4%). Pujols may not be poised to smack another 40-plus HRs and reach the 1.000 OPS mark he's made a habit of doing perennially (his .997 mark in 2007 was his worst since 2002), but he's definitely the buy-low candidate to end all buy-low candidates. As it stands, Pujols is the team's fifth or sixth-best hitter, and by year's end, he'll undoubtedly be among the top three with Lance Berkman and Matt Holliday.
Hanley Ramirez, FLA – One thing many fantasy owners probably didn't notice heading into 2011: Ramirez's ISO has consistently dropped since his high water mark in 2008 (.239 in 2008. .201 in 2009, .175 in 2010), but the .107 mark he's got so far is a bad joke. His slash line is mired in a weak-hitting middle infielder no man's land (.219/.294/.325), and he's only got 10 extra base hits. His ground ball rate so far this season has been downright Jeterian at 56.9%. He's shown some signs of power improvement after moving to second in the lineup (two HR in six games), and if he can get the ball airborne a little more often, he should be fine.
Carlos Gonzalez, COL – This is another obvious one, because Gonzalez is already starting to turn things around. Last year's breakout (.336, 34 HR, 111 R, 117 RBI, 26 SB) will be a tough act to follow, but I'm counting on CarGon to blow up after the All-Star break in July and August. Last year, he hit .364, cranked 17 HRs and drove in 40 runs during the 49 games in those two months. Giddyup.
Evan Longoria, TB – Oblique strains are tough to shake off, and Longoria clearly needs time to get comfortable at the plate again. Still – fantasy GMs are fickle creatures, so it could be time to propose a trade to your resident Longoria owner. Along with the injury implications, Longoria's numbers have been negatively affected by a .258 BABIP. Once that ISO goes north of .200 and the HRs start coming, he'll be a Top 25 contributor.
Carl Crawford, BOS – We've come to expect a lot of Carl Crawford, especially since he set the bar so high in 2010. Realistically, Crawford isn't a 90-RBI guy – though a solid case can be made that he should have been on pace for 100 runs in the Red Sox lineup. After 44 games, he's hit one HR, scored just 16 times, racked up 13 RBI and stolen just six bases. As you might expect, the .342 BABIP he posted in 2009 and 2010 (which translated into AVGs of .305 and .307) is a distant memory; he's currently sporting a .254 BABIP and .209 AVG. He's walking less and striking out more, a bad combination that he'll work to correct as the season progresses.
Dan Uggla, ATL – Uggla's numbers (.185/.256/.344) are pretty ugly, but there's plenty of room for improvement once his peripheral batting metrics get to where they should be. His ISO is at .159, and the last full season where he finished under .200 was 2006 (.198). I'm no longer expecting a campaign like he had in 2010 (.287/.369/.508, 33 HRs, 100 R, 105 RBI), but it's reasonable to think he can get his slash up to .240/.320/.425 if he starts walking more and his .197 BABIP trends back up toward his career rate of .295.
Shin-Soo Choo, CLE – Despite a great start for the Indians, Choo hasn't been the sturdy offensive force that many banked on during the early rounds of fantasy drafts. Hitting just .250/.332/.393, Choo has nowhere to go but up. His walk rate, BABIP and HR/FB rate are historically low, so I still expect him to hit around 20 HRs by year's end and get his slash above .280/.360/.425. He's still got a good shot at 80 runs and 80 RBI as well.
Casey McGehee, MIL – The Brewers are a powerful offensive team, but not slugger in this potent lineup has been pulling his weight. McGehee is sporting a less-than-impressive .257/.325/.389 slash line, and he's only jacked four homers this season. Strangely, his walk rate has increased and his K% rate has gone down, though his swing % is about the same as last season – which could mean he's actually being too selective, especially earlier in counts.
I wouldn't count on his OPS cracking the .800 mark this season, but his current approach should yield better results as his LF% and HR/FB rate increase.
Corey Hart, MIL – Like McGehee, Hart is struggling to provide the kind of numbers Brewers fans have become acclimated to. We can probably chalk it up to a slow start after the early spring oblique injury. His .092 ISO must be a product of a small sample and rust, judging by his career .204 ISO. If somebody's selling Hart cheap because he's yet to hit a homer and has just one RBI in 21 games, I'd buy low and wait patiently for the dividends.
Kelly Johnson, ARI – Johnson's batting average is at a menial .191 – over 70 points below his career mark of .264. While he's slammed a few homers and swiped a few bases, he's absolutely killing his owners with that AVG. The main culprit is not even his .246 BABIP, though that doesn't help, but a 31.2 K% and walk rate (6.3%) that's about half his 2010 rate. While he's probably not going to get his average up above .250 for the season, expect a modest resurgence and respectable HR and SB totals by year's end.

Sanyo: Hybrid Photovoltaics
The solar cells that generate electricity from sunlight have been made of either expensive (and efficient) crystalline silicon cells or cheap (and less efficient) amorphous silicon, the kind used in calculators. Sanyo combines these two silicons in their HIT Power Panels in a way that makes them lighter, more efficient, and more affordable than cells from competing manufacturers. At higher temperatures, Sanyo's cells are 10 percent more efficient than conventional crystalline silicon panels.

June 2009: Government Affairs
June 2009
2009 Masonry Legislative Conference Creates Momentum
Thanks to the momentum generated by the MCAA Fly-In last month, the MCAA's federal affairs team, The Keelen Group, has been working on the 3% withholding legislation and life-cycle costing in the MilCon appropriations bill.
The 3% withholding bill has been introduced in the House (H.R. 275) by Congressmen Kendrick Meek (FL) and Wally Herger (CA), and already has 52 cosponsors. Thirty-five cosponsors have joined the bill since the MCAA congressional visits occurred. The bill has been introduced in the Senate (S. 292) by Senator Arlen Specter (PA) and has eight cosponsors. The Keelen Group will work with the sponsors of these bills to garner more support and work on a legislative strategy to move the bill. The MCAA will distribute letters of support and direct member contact.
We are working with Senator Mark Pryor (AR) and his staff on possible solutions to ensure that life-cycle costing is considered in military construction projects. The MCAA has pushed this effort in various states across the country, and, with The Keelen Group, will continue to work with Congress on a solution to this issue.
Additionally, our team will continue tracking and analyzing immigration, health care, tax, and pension reform efforts, so that the MCAA is prepared to fight for favorable provisions for the masonry industry. The Fly-In provided critical momentum for the MCAA, and we must remain active to position ourselves for legislative success.
Matthew B. Keelen, CEO and president of The Keelen Group, and Michael J. Falencki, COO and VP of policy, operate a government relations/lobbying, consulting and strategic services practice in Washington, D.C.

Myasthenias, a group of immune mediated neurological diseases: from etiology to therapy.
Coordinator: Sonia BERRIH-AKNIN
Project Number: 242210
EC contribution: 5,917,421.00
Project website: http://www.fight-mg.eu/
Myasthenia Gravis (MG) is a heterogeneous rare autoimmune neurological disease affecting the neuromuscular junction (NMJ). The molecular events causing and maintaining MG are still unknown and current treatments do not lead to remission and entail considerable side-effects stressing the need for improved therapies. We will address the:
- Natural course of disease: determine factors associated with disease onset and/or affecting the course of disease and patients' quality of life in subgroups of MG patients including children, twins, females and elderly patients.
- Etiology of MG: identify new genetic, epigenetic and environmental risk factors and investigate immunological key molecules associated with MG onset.
- Pathogenic mechanisms at the NMJ:
- study molecular changes in the NMJ by proteomic, genetic, epigenetic and microRNA analyses in MG patients and experimental models;
- analyze morphological changes at the NMJ in mouse models expressing YFP nerves and mice transgenic for mini-agrin;
- evaluate the capacity of muscle cell satellites from MG patients to regenerate muscle and form new endplates in immunodeficient mice.
- New diagnostic and monitoring assays:
- identify pathogenic and protective factors in MG sera;
- improve the sensitivity of current assays;
- Identify new biomarkers associated with different MG subgroups by proteomic and microRNA analyses;
- Identify patients' response to treatment and liability to side effects by pharmacogenomic analyses.
- Novel therapies:
- study new cell-based therapies aimed at regulating the autoimmune response by regulatory T cells or mesenchymal stem cells in humanized mice;
- immunoadsorb pathogenic antibodies;
- test non-cell based immmunomodulatory therapies;
- target epigenetic regulators.
This multidisciplinary project linking basic researchers with clinical neurologists, SMEs and several European patient associations should favor a translational approach for improved MG

City will view it as two points dropped and perhaps concede their title hopes are now over but struggling Birmingham deserved a draw, which is a welcome boost to their survival hopes.
Kolarov bends it round the wall and inches wide of the far post. And that proves to be the last kick of the game as the final whistle goes to end an action-packed draw at St Andrews.
Zigic pulls back Boateng to give City a free-kick just inside their own half. Tevez is then brought down by Johnson 25 yards out. Perfect territory for Kolarov.
Birmingham look as likely to snatch a winner as City, with Kolarov having to hack clear from Gardner on the edge of their box.
Jiranek clears as City play the ball in front of the Birmingham box, before Dzeko hooks the ball into the danger zone and Foster takes the catch under pressure from Silva.
Johnson heads Bentley's corner goalwards and Hart catches it just under the bar. Four minutes of stoppage time are indicated.
Phillips tries his luck with a speculative volley from 25 yards and Hart has to back-pedal and tip it over.
Hart gets play restarted. Tevez drops back to get possession and his ball for Boateng down the right channel is too long.
Bentley's right-wing cross is headed clear by Kompany before Ridgewell's diagonal ball is too long for Zigic and it's a City goal-kick. Hart receives treatment for a blow to the head. The City keeper has a small gash above his left eye.
Ridgewell exchanges passes with Beausejour deep on the left but his cross is too long for Zigic, Hart fumbles the low cross back in and thankfully for the visitors, Toure is on hand to clear.
Blues' top scorer Gardner fancies it...but it's Bentley who tries his luck, curling it straight into the City wall.
Carr heads the corner clear before Kolarov plays it back to Hart. Blues come back at City and Vieira trips Phillips again, this time almost 25 yards out.
City pouring forward now before Kolarov loses possession on the left. Still plenty of time for the visitors to secure victory, though.
City are straight back on the attack, with the visitors queueing up on the edge of the Blues box. Boateng's cross is then punched out by Foster and Silva turns it over with Foster out of position. The Spanish playmaker should have done better there.
GOAL! Craig Gardner steps up and smashes the spot-kick high to the Hart's right. The City keeper guessed the right way but it was too high and too powerful for the England man to stop a seventh goal of the season for Gardner.
Beausejour turns Vieira before finding Carr on the opposite flank. Blues progress up the right before Phillips is brought down by Vieira just inside the City box and it's a Birmingham penalty.
Zigic is flagged offside from Bentley's ball down the right. Lee Bowyer makes way for Chilean winger Jean Beausejour.
Milner's cross is headed clear by Jiranek as far as Kolarov, who tests Foster with a fierce 25-yard drive.
Dzeko lays off for Milner in the Blues box but Jiranek makes a well-timed tackle to clear the danger, and Phillips comes on for the home side, replacing Cameron Jerome.
Jerome manages to keep in Bentley's deep cross but Hart can gather with ease. Kevin Phillips is about to come on for Blues.
Milner's cross clearly hits the right arm of Stephen Carr in the box but it wasn't deliberate so the penalty isn't given despite a big shout from City.
The game's really opening up now as City break again, with Tevez hitting a curling effort straight at Foster from Silva's lay-off.
City break but Dzeko loses possession before Blues come back at the visitors, with Jerome's cut-back going to Vieira.
Bentley's corner finds Bowyer, who sidefoots it goalwards and against Boateng. Claims for a penalty are in vain.
Boateng fails to keep a Vieira pass in and it's a Birmingham throw. Vieira's not quite got to grips with the game yet.
Jerome accidentally treads on the calf of Kolo Toure. The pair receive treatment while City boss Roberto Mancini hands a note to Jerome Boateng on the touchline.
Ferguson finds Jerome in the right channel but his cross is taken by Hart, player of the year on loan at Birmingham last season.
City break with Tevez feeding Silva in the box. His cut-back is blocked by Ferguson before Jiranek turns it behind.
A nicely-worked free-kick comes out to Jiranek, who fluffs his shot, before Johnson heads wide at the far post. Johnson had headed the initial ball down and is causing City some real problems from set-pieces.
Bentley's delivery is headed clear by Kompany but Bentley puts it back in. Hart is challenged by Johnson and City are given a free-kick.
City are still in possession, with Jerome Boateng exchanging passes with Dzeko before testing Foster from the right side of the Blues box.
Blues keep the pressure on with Bentley cutting in from the right before laying off for Gardner, who slices a left-footed strike well wide from 25 yards.
Zigic flicks on for Bentley, who sends a 20-yard volley dipping over the crossbar. Good start to the second half by the home side.
Birmingham are straight on the front foot and Bentley fires over from a wide angle after linking well with Ferguson on the left.
The two sides are coming out for the second half and City are preparing to make their second change, with Patrick Vieira coming on for Nigel de Jong. The Dutchman must still be groggy after that clash of heads with Richards.
So, can Blues come back into it or are City destined for another three points? Let us know your views at firstname.lastname@example.com
Kompany finds Kolarov down the left and he cuts inside Carr before delivering a poor low cross. Boateng puts it back in but it's gathered by Foster. And the whistle goes for half-time at St Andrews with Man City 2-1 up.
Bentley's free-kick fails to clear the first man but he whips in another good ball which Gardner almost latches on to.
Bentley knocks the ball past Kolarov on the right wing before being chopped down. The City goalscorer is the second man in the book.
Lull in play now but the visitors will have to get back on it as there'll be plenty of stoppage time played before the half-time whistle goes.
Birmingham win a free-kick in the City half, which is headed back across goal by Johnson but Kompany heads clear.
The Serbian full-back has been threatening to do just that with his trusty left boot all season and after scoring his first City goal against Leicester in the FA Cup, he hits the free-kick around the wall and just inside the bottom corner, leaving Foster stranded.
GOAL! And Birmingham are right to be worried as Aleksandar Kolarov smashes it into the bottom corner to put City back in front.
Dzeko has another chance to run at Blues and is brought down by Gardner for a 20-yard free-kick. Good position for City this.
Nigel de Jong then comes sprinting back on with a bandage on his head...only to be sent back to the opposite touchline and the fourth official!?!
Kolo Toure is now on the field as Richards is carried off, to generous applause from both sets of fans.
Richards is helped onto the stretcher. He has just moved his arm so he's no longer unconscious. City signal they are making an immediate substitution.
De Jong is walking off with a towel held to his head but Richards is still on the floor. The City defender has clearly come off worse. There's a stretcher on now too.
Zigic's poor touch allows Silva to nip in and lay off for Barry down the left. His cut-back finds Dzeko in the box but the £27million striker drags a right-footed shot wide on the turn. Sila might have been better placed to take that one.
City break and win a free-kick on the right, which goes through to the opposite flank, where Milner unsuccessfully claims a foul.
The referee lets play continue after Nigel de Jong's poor challenge on Bentley but then gives then shows the City midfielder the game's first yellow card.
Terrible defending by the visitors as they let Zigic run, leaving Hart totally exposed. The slightest of touches from the striker - if, indeed, he does touch it!
Sloppy play now as neither side are able to keep possession, before Blues win a free-kick on the left wing.
Terry ("Irish but in Cape Town") reckons: "I fancy City to absolutly steamroll Birmingham tonight using great semi counter-attacking football to win 3-0, Tevez brace."
Barry Ferguson is having treatment after going over on his ankle. Plenty of you are going for a City win by two goals. But Birmingham fan, Gabriel Sutton, is going even further: "Looking up the line-ups, I don't like to say it but I'm plumping for a 4-0 Man City win. I think their midfield will outweigh ours and disrupt our defence. Tevez to get 2, Dzeko & Silva."
Carr gets to the byline down the right and crosses for Jerome to head back across goal. A poor clearance by Barry allows Zigic to volley goalwards from 20 yards and Hart tips over.
Richards outmuscles Zigic on the edge of the City box but Jerome then heads over from a fine right-wing cross by Bentley. Positive signs there for Blues.
City win another corner and it's a comical attempt by Milner as he kicks the flag out while rolling the ball back into play. Blues charge upfield.
Jerome is fouled on the edge of the City box by Micah Richards but Bentley's free-kick is charged down.
A bobbly pitch is making it difficult for the two sides to play it around but Milner manages to find Tevez in the right channel. Tevez is unable to cut it back, though, and Foster gathers.
Billy Armstrong has gone for a 3-1 win to City, with Tevez on the scoresheet. You're on your way, Billy!
Stephen Carr's poor cross is cleared by James Milner before City build possession and Gardner cuts out Tevez's pass intended for Silva.
The Birmingham defence stood off as David Silva jinked into the box before finding Tevez. He turned and fired goalwards from a wide angle and his shot bobbled inside the far post off Jiranek.
GOAL! City are in front already through a deflected strike from skipper and top scorer Carlos Tevez.
James Milner crosses from the right but Gareth Barry is unable to reach with his head. Ben Foster charges out to clear for throw being doing well to hold on to Edin Dzeko's low cross.
The visitors get the game under way and Nigel de Jong soon gives the ball away before Craig Gardner fires off target from just over 20 yards.
News that Yaya Toure is suffering from flu while Obafemi Martins is out of the country to sort out his visa.
But the hosts are also desperate for the points as only goal difference seperates them from the relegation zone heading into tonight's Premier League games.
With Man United, Arsenal and Chelsea all winning last night, City will be keen to keep up with their title rivals having lost last time out across the city at Aston Villa.
Mancini makes five changes for tonight, with Vincent Kompany, Aleksandar Kolarov, Nigel de Jong, David Silva and top scorer Carlos Tevez all coming back in. Kolo Toure is on the bench but brother Yaya is out altogether so may be carrying a niggle.
City also made changes for their FA Cup draw at Notts County but it was hardly a weak side given Roberto Mancini's star-studded squad.
Only Liam Ridgewell, Martin Jiranek, David Bentley and Nikola Zigic remain, with Czech defender Jiranek making his first Premier League appearance. Curtis Davies is on the bench while fellow new signing Obafemi Martins mustn't be fit enough yet as he isn't even amongst the subs.
Blues boss Alex McLeish fielded a weakened side for Saturday's FA Cup win over Coventry so there are a further seven changes for their return to Premier League action tonight.
Birmingham: Foster, Carr, Jiranek, Johnson, Ridgewell, Bentley, Gardner, Ferguson, Bowyer, Jerome, Zigic.

Sorry, but I'm not buying what Ian Kennedy is selling.
He might not have been trying to plunk Dodgers rookie Yasiel Puig on the end of the nose with his high, tight 92-mile-per-hour fastball Tuesday night at Dodgers Stadium, but I find it hard to believe he didn't intend to hit him at all.
Or at least to deliver a message by throwing way inside.
And there is even less doubt about whether he was going after Dodgers pitcher Zack Greinke, who had just thrown at Diamondbacks catcher Miquel Montero in retaliation for the Puig pitch.
The Dodgers clearly don't believe it, which is why the game – won by LA – turned ugly. Perhaps they remembered Kennedy throwing inside against their ace, Clayton Kershaw, last season.
That was in response, presumably, to the Dodgers taking offense to Gerardo Parra the season prior when they thought he did a bit too much preening after a home run. Kershaw plunked him the next day.
Funny that earlier Tuesday in a conversation with Diamondbacks president/CEO Derrick Hall about Puig, I mentioned Parra's terrific throw in the opener of the series that got Puig at third base.
"Parra always steps up against the Dodgers," Hall noted. "There's something about the Dodgers that brings something out of him. He stands a little taller, he puffs out his chest a little more."
There's something about the Dodgers that brings that out of all the Diamondbacks, which will make the remaining 11 games between the two teams even more interesting.
Nothing wrong with some heat in a rivalry, a little bad blood or even vigilante justice.
But the head-hunting has to stop.
Dodgers-Diamondbacks rivalry going too far
Sorry, but I'm not buying what Ian Kennedy is selling.

07/20/2016 - A House committee has approved two important postal measures that may be considered by the full House in the fall. The Oversight and Government Reform Committee adopted the Postal Service Reform Act of 2016 (H.R. 5714) and the Postal Service Financial Improvement Act (H.R. 5707) in a voice vote on July 12. "While the APWU is encouraged by the bipartisan manner in which the committee has approached postal reform, we are troubled by the inclusion of a number of provisions that we believe will undermine efforts to secure a robust future for the Postal Service," said APWU President Mark Dimondstein. "Unless these provisions are revisited, improved, and changed during consideration of the bill by the full House of Representatives, the APWU will be unable to endorse the legislation."

Hi all. Just bought my first firearm a few weeks ago. A friend of mine encouraged me to do some reading and directed me here. At first I was just planning on having a handgun for home defense and target shooting for fun. Already I see that not only is there a lot more to both of those ideas than I thought, but I'm also discovering a responsibility to learn how to carry defensively in public. Its my right, and personally, I think its my duty.

Sometimes in life you have to stand your ground. It's a hard lesson to learn and even most adults don't get it, but in the end only I can be responsible for my life. If faced with any type of adversity, only I can overcome it. Waiting for someone else to take responsibility is a long fruitless wait.

By Ms. Linda K Loebach (AMC)July 5, 2012
TOOELE ARMY DEPOT, Utah--The new commanding general of Joint Munitions Command, Brig. Gen. Kevin O'Connell, recently paid his first visit to Tooele Army Depot, which is one of Joint Munitions Command's nationwide network of facilities where conventional ammunition is produced and stored.
First, TEAD's team gave O'Connell an overview of the facility.
"Real good rundown," said O'Connell. "I like your focus."
Then, the team took O'Connell on a whirlwind tour of the 24,000 acre facility.
Workers demonstrated ammunition peculiar equipment, which is equipment specially designed to work in an ammunition environment and is all safety-inspected and certified.
O'Connell viewed a pilot model shop and a new, state-of-the-art manufacturing facility. He was able to view a super pull-apart machine, also referred to as SPAM, which demilitarizes unusable ammunition.
O'Connell took an opportunity to operate TEAD's super stacker where he moved railroad car containers, empty for his practice, from one stack to another for storage.
A tour of nearby Deseret Chemical Depot was on the docket, too.
DCD's mission of demilitarizing chemical ammunition was completed in Spring 2012. In Summer 2013, TEAD will take over operations. TEAD intends to use the storage capabilities of DCD's 208 storage igloos and 34 above ground magazines on its 19,000 acres of land.
In fact, 10 igloos have already been cleared of any chemical residue and are being readied for use by TEAD for storage of rocket motors from the Missile Defense Agency. TEAD will generate revenue from this project by safely storing and monitoring the motors for MDA. And, TEAD's business development specialists are working to procure additional projects for DCD, which will be renamed Tooele Army Depot South.
Upon returning to TEAD, O'Connell expressed his appreciation for an informative look at Tooele Army Depot's capabilities.
TEAD's mission is to support Warfighter readiness through superior receipt, storage, issue, demil and renovation of conventional ammunition and the design, manufacture, fielding and maintenance of ammunition peculiar equipment.
