PHOENIX -- No one knows better than Jed Lowrie that the shortstop of the A's future is Addison Russell.
For that reason, current A's shortstop Lowrie can't say how long his stay in Oakland will be. He loves his teammates, he has a history in the Bay Area after playing at Stanford, and he likes winning, so he's in no hurry to leave.
What to do about Russell? He's only played three games above Single-A, so the A's aren't going to rush him to the major leagues this year. Such is Russell's talent, however, that the 20-year-old could be forcing the issue 12 months from now.
"It's impossible to look at Addison and not see an awesome shortstop in the making," Lowrie said. "He has a chance to play at this level for a very long time."
If that's the case, the A's would seem to have two paths for Lowrie. They could move him to second base, which was the position the A's thought he'd play when they picked him up from Houston just before spring training a year ago. Or they could either trade him or let him go as a free agent when he becomes eligible after the season.
"The organization is really excited about Addison, and they should be," he said. "At some point we'll have to have some conversations about how I fit into their plans. This early, it's too hard to say.
"I love the guys in the clubhouse. The coaching staff, led by Bob (Melvin) is awesome. It's great here. I like playing here. The Coliseum has its set of challenges, but you make up for it with the guys and the coaching staff."
Lowrie, 29, wants to be a shortstop looking ahead. If there were teams that wanted him to play shortstop and Oakland wanted to move him to second base, that balancing act would be a major factor in his decision-making process. But he does have lots of loyalty to the A's, for whom he had a breakout season in 2013 with a .290 average, 45 doubles, 15 homers and a career-best 154 games played.
He'd been an often-injured prospect in Boston, with a few fluke injuries keeping him out of the lineup for extended periods. He went to the Astros and had a great half season in 2012, then a collision at second base ended his season. Playing a full season for the first time in 2013 was validation.
"Before last year, people saw my injuries, but they didn't dig down to learn how the injuries happened," he said. "People assumed I was injury-prone. I'm not. I just play hard. The injuries were all 'what-are-you-going-to-do?' things. To play last season injury free and to play for a team that won its division, those were great things for me."
As for the future?
"I'm not going to be doing any back flips," Lowrie said, grinning. It was a reference to the standing back flip Russell did in the A's talent show earlier this month. "Just looking at him doing that, you can tell what kind of athlete he is."
Friday night's starter against the Giants, Sonny Gray, is widely expected to get the call. Gray didn't get much help from his defense in a 3-0 loss, with three infield errors committed behind him. He dodged the first two but wound up allowing an unearned run in the fourth inning.
Gray said his curveball and changeup combined with his fastball produced his best collection of pitches of the spring. The other two runs of the game came in the eighth off A's closer Jim Johnson.

Seat belt check yields 51 tickets
Published: Wednesday, January 30, 2013 at 11:13 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, January 30, 2013 at 11:13 a.m.
Houma Police said they issued 51 tickets as 695 vehicles passed through a seat belt checkpoint Tuesday.
The only person arrested was Martin R. Rodriguez, 29, of Houma, who was charged with driving while unlawfully in the U.S., police said.
Other than that, people were cited for 36 seat belt violations, 17 non-moving violations and five child safety seat violations from 3 to 6 p.m. at the checkpoint at Roussell and Main streets, police said.
The operation was funded through a two-year, $201,496 grant from the state Highway Safety Commission.

CORPUS CHRISTI – The Texas A&M – Corpus Christi Men's Tennis team got a program first on Wednesday afternoon when Peter Nagy was selected as one of 64 participants in singles portion of the NCAA Championships.
"We're extremely proud of Peter," said Director of Tennis Steve Moore. "I cannot tell you how hard this young man has worked and how much he has improved in one year's time. I can honestly say that I'm not sure any player has ever improved in the course of a year more than Peter, and we've had a lot of guys improve."
Nagy, a native of Budapest, Hungary, has lost just three matches between the fall and spring seasons, going 16-2 in dual matches this season, and losing just once during the fall at the ITA Texas Regionals. He won the Marco & Co. Islanders Open and the Rice Galleria Fall Invite, both ITA-sanctioned events, while reaching the Round of 16 at the ITA tournament.
"He is so extremely coachable and really listens," said Moore. "He shows up and does extra work everyday on his own. He is an absolute joy to coach. Peter has determination and drive that are rare and special, he does all the things you appreciate as a coach."
Nagy's most recent win put his team on the brink of clinching the Southland Conference tournament, giving his team a 3-2 lead in a match that they would win by a 4-2 final. He did not lose a set to a Southland Conference opponent during the regular season, and he last lost a singles match on Feb. 21 against Texas.
"I can tell you one thing for certain, Peter's work ethic was contagious in a positive way to this team," said Moore. "You can't witness a guy work as hard as Peter Nagy, and not be challenged to work hard yourself."
He will lead his team into the NCAA Championships on May 10 against that same Texas team, with Texas A&M – Corpus Christi a No. 3 seed in the College Station Regional hosted by Texas A&M. The Islanders will face Texas in the first round, while Texas A&M takes on Marist. The winners of the two matches will meet the next day to decide the winner of the regional and the participant in the final 16 that will take place in Urbana, Ill. starting May 19.
Nagy was an automatic qualifier from the Southland Conference after winning the conference championship at No. 1 singles and being ranked in the top 125 singles players in the nation. He is currently ranked No. 97 in the nation, with Nagy set to move up in the new singles rankings that will be released on Thursday afternoon.
"I think it's a great honor to have our schools name in such a highly prestigious event," said Moore. "We're extremely excited about Islander Peter Nagy competing in the NCAA Tennis Championships."
The individual singles and doubles competition is slated to start the week after the completion of the team championships at the Khan Outdoor Tennis Complex/Atkins Tennis Center on the campus of Illinois. Pairings for the event will be released at a later date.

ACUSHNET — Town Clerk Pamela Labonte is reminding new residents of Acushnet that they must be registered in order to vote on the new police station, which is on the ballot for a special election on Monday, Dec. 10.
Voters will be going back to the polls to answer the following question:
"Shall the Town of Acushnet be allowed to exempt from the provisions of proposition two and one-half, so-called, the amounts required to pay for the bond issued in order to pay costs of designing, constructing, originally equipping, and furnishing a new Police Station to be located at 60 Middle Rd., Map 24 Lot 36, including the payment of all costs incidental and related thereto?"
The cost of the police station is estimated at $5.7 million with $5.2 million coming from taxpayers who own property in Acushnet and about $500,000 from town funds.
Absentee ballots were available, beginning Nov. 13 in the Town Clerk's Office. The clerk's office will be open extended hours to make it convenient for voters to register — on Saturday, Dec. 8, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

If you're a serious gamer, these are exciting days. If you're not a serious gamer, you can be excused for wondering what the fuss is all about.
After a longer-than-usual product cycle, Microsoft and Sony have finally released new game machines. Their Xbox One and PlayStation 4, respectively, are much more powerful than their predecessors, offer some cool new features and best of all promise some great new game experiences.
But many of the consoles' new features are simply refinements of features already present on their predecessors. Unlike previous consoles, they don't offer much that's dramatically new or different. And, as is always the case with brand-new game machines, they cost a lot of money and currently have few games available for them.
So, if you're not a serious gamer with more than $400 to burn, you're better off waiting.
The new consoles have been a long time coming. It's been seven years since Sony launched the PlayStation 3 and eight since Microsoft launched its Xbox 360.
As you might expect, the innards of the new machines have received major upgrades. Both feature speedy new processors, super-powerful graphics chips, much more memory than their predecessors and 500GB hard drives for storing games and game data.
The Xbox One has a Blu-ray drive, something its predecessor lacked, which should allow game developers to create and store much more complicated games for the device. Meanwhile, the PlayStation 4 has an optional new dual-camera accessory that should give it some of the motion-tracking capabilities of the Xbox Kinect.
Both devices offer some new capabilities. The Xbox One can be used to watch live TV from a pay-TV service in place of a cable box. While the Xbox 360 could be used to watch TV from AT&T's Uverse service, the Xbox One can work with a wide range of television providers. At least it's supposed to. In my brief test of the Xbox One, I couldn't get the feature to work.
Both consoles allow users to interact with them using their tablets, smartphones or other devices as second screens. Users can use those screens as controllers for the games or as remote controls to switch channels or fast-forward movies. Users who own both a PlayStation 4 and a PlayStation Vita handheld system will be able to play games on the Vita that are streamed from the PlayStation 4.
And both consoles promise to make it easier for users to take videos of their gameplay and instantly upload them to game video site Twitch. While that feature has been delayed on the Xbox One until next year, gamers will be able to use a feature called "snap" to watch game videos from Twitch as they are playing a particular game. That feature could be a big help for users stuck on a particular level or sequence.
Of course, the big thing for gamers is the games themselves. In this, Microsoft appears to have an early edge, with a greater number of games available at launch and a larger number of top-tier games, including exclusives such as "Dead Rising 3."
Those games are likely to draw in the enthusiasts. But for the rest of us, there are good reasons to wait.
In terms of price per games available, consoles are never as costly as they are when they launch. Most of the few games available can be found on older consoles. And the price of the devices is at their maximum. Over time, the number of games available -- including those that are exclusive to the new consoles -- will grow and the sticker price of the machines will inevitably drop.
Early buyers also face the risk of choosing the wrong platform. If you get stuck with a game machine that ends up being relatively unpopular, you may not get to play certain games, or you may not get them until long after they are released for other platforms. If you wait, you can have a much better idea which console will wind up on top.
Even setting those broad issues aside, the new consoles, at least to my eye, just don't seem as compelling as their predecessors. The PlayStation 3 and the Xbox 360 were the first game machines that could display high-definition games, and the PlayStation 3 was the first console with a built-in Blu-ray player.
Nintendo's Wii pioneered and popularized motion-controlled gaming, and Microsoft's Kinect for the Xbox 360 introduced controller-less gaming. And both Sony and Microsoft introduced features that made their consoles capable of serving as the centers of the digital living room, able to play not just games, but movies, TV shows and music.
The Xbox One and the PlayStation 4, by contrast, don't seem to offer anything on that level of innovation.

That showtime has passed. Please try next available showtime.
USA, 2001, 106 Minute Running Time
Genre/Subject: Drama
DIRECTOR: George Hickenlooper
Screenwriter: Phillip Jayson LaskerPrincipal Cast: Andy Garcia, Mick Jagger, Julianna Margulies, Olivia Williams, James Coburn, Anjelica HustonUS Distributor: Samuel Goldwyn Films
Friday, November 9th, 9:30pm at the L2 Arts and Culture Center
For nearly 30 years and over 40 films Cuban-American actor Andy Garcia has captivated audiences worldwide in such memorable films as The Untouchables, Things to Do in Denver When You're Dead, When a Man Loves a Woman, and Ocean's Eleven. An Academy Award nominee, Garcia continues to make his mark in cinematic history not only as an actor but also as a filmmaker. The Denver Film Society is proud to honor Garcia following a special presentation of The Man from Elysian Fields with the inaugural George Hickenlooper Honorary award, presented by Governor John Hickenlooper.
George Hickenlooper directs the psychological drama The Man From Elysian Fields about an impoverished writer lost in a world of money, power, and male escorts. Though happily married with a young child, Byron Tiller (Andy Garcia) is struggling to make ends meet as a novelist. His last work, called "Hitler's Child," had an ignoble run in the bookstore bargain bins and his editor is not interested in his latest work about migrant workers. One day, he is approached by a dapper Brit named Luther Fox (Mick Jagger) who actually read Tiller's last opus. Luther explains that he runs an escort agency named Elysian Fields, which caters to rich women looking for intelligent companionship. Desperate for any kind of income source, Tiller takes the job while keeping the whole thing a secret from his loving wife (Julianna Margulies). He soon is rubbing elbows with the beautiful wife (Olivia Williams) of an aging Pulitzer Prize-winning writer. Gradually, Tiller finds himself immersed in this strange new world that he cannot quite understand, much less explain to his spouse. This film was screened at the 2001 Toronto Film Festival.

Liverpool Message Board
Record Broken.. Well done Redmen
Our Reds went to Fulham on 35 away goals, needing 2 more to surpass their all time PL record which was 36 in 08/09. The 3 scored today by Danny Surridge makes it LFC's highest away goal tally since 1989/1990 when they scored 40.. Last season they scored 23 goals in their away matches..
Well done across the board, top to bottom.. players, fans and manager.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
Yes it could have been even more! No doubt there will be some who think that Sturridge is a donkey, the goals away record isnt proof of progress and blah blah.
The sooner this season is over the better, I am looking forward to next season without a doubt! Lets hope the owners open their purse wide in the close season.
- 1 Reply to Loki
Daniel Sturridge has score 11 goals in 15 prem matches.. Not even OJ Simpson's lawyer could convince a sane person he hasn't been worth every penny spent.. If only for a couple of lesser showings, while keeping in mind he's not played much in nearly a year and is only 23, he could have 15 in 15, or more..
Some people don't like stats, and I agree they can always be swung in one direction or another, but that's not really a stat, it's a fact, and if you compare is prolificacy vs others who've been bought for more, it's startling how good he's started off mark at LFC and even better w/o Suarez!!

Learn more about SVB 30 years | 30 causes
Clean water and safe, non-toxic environments are foundational to living well, working hard, and maintaining a high-quality of life. . . all things we want for the communities we serve around the world. As part of our 30 Years | 30 Causes campaign in honor of Silicon Valley Bank's 30th year in business, more than 100 of our San Francisco-based employees, their families, and many based on the Peninsula and South Bay as well pledged an afternoon to the EcoCenter at Heron's Head Park (a former PG&E power plant site). Through some wind, dirt, sweat, but thankfully, no tears that I am aware of . . . we all made a positive impact on our local environment.
Our dedicated team spent the afternoon at the park removing invasive plant species (the technical term for heavy duty weeding), which threaten the biological diversity of the wetland. This area is currently home to two endangered species, one plant and one bird species that will be protected with the help of volunteers. We also spent time mulching, planting in some very hardpan soil, and watering the fragile ecosystem. Wetlands like this are rare, especially in San Francisco.
Over our 30 year history, SVB has cultivated a culture of community service, with employees who are fully dedicated to helping our clients, each other, the greater community and our environment. Our team showed up in full force for this effort, which is really no surprise since our employees dedicate thousands of hours per year to worthy causes around the world.
Located in the Bayview Hunter's Point neighborhood, which is currently a redevelopment area; one of the lowest income census tracts in the city of San Francisco, the EcoCenter is the city's first completely off-grid building and environmental justice education center in the Bay Area. It is committed to environmental education and has offered the Literacy for Environmental Justice (LEJ) program as part of its youth service program since 1998. Through the program, students gain hands-on experience in environmental stewardship, ecology, and information about how natural systems of the earth impact our environments and lives. LEJ also helps Bay Area youth develop college and career skills through ongoing projects and job opportunities at EcoCenter.
Volunteers group photo
Lastly, I'd like the highlight that our own Community Development Finance team (located in the SanFrancisco office) financed the Hunter's View affordable housing project that is adjacent to the EcoCenter. SVB provided a $10,000,000 participation loan (lead lender was Citibank; $41,000,000 loan) and also sponsored the project as part of an Affordable Housing Program (AHP) grant from the Federal Home Loan Bank of SF for $1,000,000. Total project costs were approximately $95,000,000. SVBers can be very proud to have helped to positively impact the Bayview Hunter's Point neighborhood and its redevelopment.
HandsOn Bay Area is the EcoCenter's official volunteer partner. To explore volunteer opportunities and sign-up, please visit HOBA.org.
About 30 Years | 30 Causes The "30 Years |30 Causes" campaign was developed after Silicon Valley Bank crowd sourced ideas from its employees to celebrate its 30th anniversary. The company will host 30 community service events around the world near each of its offices in 2013. A listing of SVB's 30 Years | 30 Causes events, as well as photos, will be updated at www.svb.com/svb-30-years/ and www.facebook.com/SVBFinancialGroup Follow @SVB_Financial's community service initiatives on Twitter with #SVB30. Points of Light is assisting SVB with the development and execution of these events worldwide.

LSU coach owes us an apology
Published: Friday, November 23, 2012 at 9:53 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, November 23, 2012 at 9:53 a.m.
I am an LSU fan, and I was glad for the victory over the Ole Miss Rebels on Saturday.
I congratulate the Tigers on a great win.
To me, the greatest blemish on the win came during the post-game interview I saw on ESPN.
I was taken aback by the language of LSU coach Les Miles.
He dismissed his profanity with, "Excuse my language."
Coach Miles is supposed to be building character in his players as well as winning football games.
We won the game, but I believe Coach Miles fell short on any character-building with his profanity.
I believe an apology is due all Tiger fans, his players and the university.

Xcel wants $114 million more from you for natural gas over the next two years. That's a 3.6 percent increase, an average of $1.75 per month through 2015. In return, the company promised not to file another rate increase during the period. Remember, it last raised rates in 2010. Aren't they being generous?
This increase is on top of the 5.5 percent rate hike Xcel was granted for supplying consumer electricity last year, in return for a promise to "probably" not seek another increase until...2015. And that doesn't count the $44 million Colorado ratepayers are shelling out for the failed Boulder "smart grid." Remember when companies paid for their mistakes themselves? Executives at Xcel may, but as long as they are dealing with a supine Public Utilities Commission, why should they? Without doubt, we'll have to bail them out.
The wind-power industry is also demanding that you continue to cover the cost of its inability to compete. Industrial giants like Vestas, Siemens and President Obama's pet corporation, General Electric, are teaming up with radical environmentalists and "global warming" fearmongers to push further subsidies for this inefficient source of electrical power. With former governor Ritter in the running to be the next Energy Secretary, expect to pay plenty for this boondoggle. After all, it's for your own good.
If you like milk on your Cheerios, expect to pay twice as much for it in the New Year. Ditto for many other types of agricultural commodities. So you're going to have less discretionary income. Will that make a difference to our political leaders? Don't bet on it.
"Fiscal cliff" or not, taxes rise this year. Payroll taxes increase about 2 percent for everyone. If a couple makes more than $250,000 per year, they will be charged a 3.8 percent tax for Obamacare and 1 percent additional for Medicare. The threshold for medical deductions will be raised to 10 percent of total income, making it harder to use. Any solution to the "fiscal cliff" will probably involve taxation of employer-provided health care as income. And heaven help us if Congress can't get it together to patch the Alternative Minimum Tax once again; if they don't, 27 million Americans with incomes down to about $57,000 will fall into the "greedy millionaires" category.
State Sen. Irene Aguilar wants universal health care for Coloradans through Medicaid, and thinks you should pay for it. Gov. Hickenlooper wants you to pay more for mental health care. Since the Democrats now control both the Legislature and the governor's office, you will. How much will this cost? More than you're being told.
Expect proliferation of TABOR work-arounds like the "FASTER" program with its false-front "Bridge Enterprise" government corporation, funded last year by $100 million in vehicle-registration "fees." Denver needs FasTracks. I-70 needs a monorail. It all needs funding, so expect to do your bit.
With all these new demands for your money, has the federal government got any plans to tighten its belt? Yes, but most will pinch Democrat favorites, so expect obscurantism. One example is a possible change in the way inflation is calculated.
Since 1973, cost of living adjustments (COLAs) factoring inflation into government entitlements from Social Security payments to "extended" unemployment benefits and food stamps to pensions of all sorts, has been based on something called the "CPI-W," a consumer price index which covers about 32 percent of the urban workforce. In 1995, Congress mandated a redesign of the index, incorporating product-switching, meaning that if the price of steak rises to a certain point, it's no longer included in the calculation; instead, it's simply assumed that people have switched to buying hamburger. Many non-government economists think that the CBI-W underestimates real inflation by as much as .9-1.6 percent a year.
We might soon see a switch to a new methodology: the "Personal Consumption Expenditures" index, which stresses substitution and calculates everything from airfares to medical costs differently. The Federal Reserve has used this index since 2005; since then, the PCE has consistently measured inflation at about two-thirds of the CPI-W level, which explains why the Fed continues pouring a river of money into the economy without worrying about inflation: one doesn't see what one willfully ignores.
So more of us will have to pay more money for more government involved in more areas of our lives. We will have less personal income to pay for increasingly expensive necessities. This unpleasantness will be directed by politicians unable to govern and unwilling to face the realities that their ineptitude, monomania and personal agendas have imposed on us. And to whom we have just handed a four-year mandate to continue doing the same.
Happy New Year.

William R. Hansen, 21, of Canton, Mo., was flown to Blessing Hospital in Quincy, Ill., for treatment of serious injuries suffered in a motorcycle accident at 11:30 p.m. Sunday, April 7, in rural Lewis County, Mo.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol reported Hansen was riding a 2001 Harley Davidson on state Highway 81 three miles north of Canton from state Highway 16.
Officers said the motorcycle went off the right side of the road and hit a culvert, then became airborne and overturned several times, ejecting Hansen. He was not using a safety device.

STOCKTON - A jury convicted a 34-year-old Stockton man of attempted voluntary manslaughter after he beat up his girlfriend, Brandy Arreola, left her for dead, and caused her brain damage.
Raoul Leyva also was found guilty of an enhancement of great bodily (brain) injury and domestic violence.
Arreola was found bruised and unresponsive on the floor of an apartment in the 1000 block of North San Joaquin Street in May.
Investigators surmised she had been lying there for days.
According to court testimony, Leyva had confessed to a friend that he beat Arreola, 21, for cheating on him.
Arreola eventually recovered from a coma, but she was left with significant brain damage and needs a wheelchair for mobility.
Leyva, who is held at San Joaquin County Jail, is scheduled back in court for sentencing April 5.

Hi all,
PMS was working fine for a long time, but recently (I can't pinpoint the moment) it started acting up. I keep getting the Media Server Error: An HTTP error (500) has occurred, regardless of what file I try to play. (avi, mkv, mp4 etc.)
I installed latest java and uninstalled and then reinstalled the latest version of PMS several times (Run as administrator). I have tried to find the issue on this board but in all honesty - most of it is over my head - I am not an computer freak.
Below is my log. My PS3 is plugged into a router, where my computer is also plugged in via cables, e.g. not WiFi.
I would appreciate if someone could help me out - I can't watch anything right now.

Exercises in Style
Powers's "pop art short stories" aren't exactly stories -- they're more like incidents, moments, glances, jokes. First & Fifteenth looks and feels and even smells like an art book, and it is an art book, but it's more than that, too -- it's a subtle bit of fun, a way to take a couple kicks at some of the assumptions of what a story can be and do. It's not profound, but since when did anybody go to pop art for profundity -- pop is the province of weasels and corn: it can sneak up on you, and plant roots.
99 Ways to Tell a Story is a more substantial book, and a more ambitious one. It's an attempt to do to the graphic form what Raymond Queneau did to fiction, providing a single, simple story told in various genres, forms, idioms, and styles. (Many of Madden's results are online here.) The story becomes like the joke in The Aristocrats, with the accumulation of iterations being the source of pleasure. Madden is an extraordinary artist, and his ability to copy the style of other graphic artists is particularly impressive, but it is his fidelity to the original, simple story that is the truly amazing feat here. Queneau would be impressed.
Madden's book has a strange blurb on the cover that makes it sound like some sort of touchy-feely how-to book: "An exploration of storytelling that will amuse and delight you, and inspire your own creative work -- your novel, your comic, even your film." Well, maybe -- it certainly shows that there are no limits on how many ways a story can be conceived and structured, and that each choice changes the emphasis and effect. But there's much more here than a guide to digesting the artist within; 99 Ways to Tell a Story is a true tour de force, a valuable work of art in and of itself.

I have a long review of Madden's book out sometime in the next day or two at Comic Book Galaxy. Probably needless to say, I loved it.ReplyDelete
I thought of you the whole time I was reading it, Derik, because you're probably the ideal reader for it! I'll look for your review.ReplyDelete
Yeah, there aren't many books that mix a few of my obsessions at once.ReplyDelete

You're entirely correct, Rick. We love our crimes, we revel in our penalities! Lots of people think we're repressed and punitive in our Puritanism, but actually, the delineation of more and more crimes makes life so much more fun, because it creates a nearly infinite set of boundaries to transgress! I'm going to go discover a few more......ReplyDelete

OAKLAND -- Summer officially begins next Saturday, but California's seasonal force of beach guardians is already looking for signs of trouble in the water.
Lifeguards rescued distressed and suffocating swimmers in recent weeks at Stinson Beach, Santa Cruz and Capitola Wharf. They also helped save a man bitten by a rattlesnake last weekend along the shore of Lake Del Valle in Livermore.
Fifty-two of the Bay Area's newest and best-trained lifeguards began as cadets last month, immersing themselves in a profession that is also, for some, a way of life.
"Attitude is everything, you have to push yourself when you're nervous, tired, exhausted," Pete DeQuincy said as a crew of cadets gathered at Lake Temescal in Oakland. "You have to be fit, strong, activate the team when needed and utilize them."
DeQuincy instructs the Bay Area's biggest public lifeguarding crew as head trainer for the East Bay Regional Park District Lifeguard Services. The 13-acre Oakland lake was transformed into a lifeguarding university on weekends last month as cadets performed drills, including diving to find and pull out fellow cadets submerged in the murky water.
The young women and men who made it through DeQuincy's eight-day gantlet -- of calisthenics, sprints, lifesaving techniques and swimming 550 yards in 10 minutes or less -- have already been deployed at 11 lakes and outdoor pools from Antioch to Fremont.
More than 100 applied for the May academy; about 90 took a preliminary test and 60 passed. A smaller number completed the training. The program is known to be one of Northern California's toughest.
"They'll find it's either too vigorous, or they don't like swimming in the open water," said Nick Schriver, the district's aquatic supervisor, of those who quit. "Or they're scared by the reality of making decisions that can affect the outcome of someone's life."
The real-life test came early for top academy graduate Miguel Angel Beltran, who on his first day on the job at Shadow Cliffs in Pleasanton helped evacuate the lake for a parent's report of an "LCH2O" -- lost child in the water.
"He was on the beach somewhere. We reunited him with his family," said Beltran, 22, an aspiring firefighter from Tracy. "In a lot of cases, the child actually just wandered off, and was found in the beach, or the bathroom."
Lifeguarding has grown increasingly professional and swim rules are stricter. Shifting its focus to "active supervision, not passive supervision" of children, Schriver said the East Bay agency directs some lifeguards to wade through the water as others watch from lookout chairs.
Drownings once happened almost every year at Bay Area public swimming holes; now they are far less frequent, and the last at an East Bay regional park was in 2008.
Many lifeguards parlay their training and experience into careers as firefighters or paramedics. A handful make a career of lifeguarding; hourly pay ranges from $13.50 to $23.49 for East Bay Park District lifeguards, though the district and several Southern California beach agencies pay their top lifeguard managers six-figure salaries. In San Jose, the 17 lifeguards who watch over two community pools make between $10.27 to $12.47 per hour.
Others pursue something completely different, but take the experience and discipline with them for life. One former teenage lifeguard, Ronald Reagan, became an actor and U.S. president. Ben Lee hopes to become an emergency room doctor.
The 22-year-old Livermore resident began lifeguarding at community pools as a teenager, but said completing the park district academy -- last year and a second time in May -- brought him a higher level of expertise.
"They drill it over and over until you get it perfectly," Lee said. "It's a pretty amazing organization. Hopefully, it'll sort of prove my worth to the world."
In the meantime, before he heads to Brigham Young University in the fall, Lee is enjoying the beautiful views from his perch on the east beach of Del Valle Regional Park. Most of his days are "quite relaxing," he said, but interspersed with high-intensity, stressful moments when children go missing or snakes bite.
"It's pretty fantastic to drive to the lake in the morning and say, 'Yeah, this is where I work.' It's the best job you can ask for as a college student," Lee said. "I've never heard of a better one."

Being back at Innisbrook is enough to make Jordan Spieth wonder if his entire 2013 season boiled down to three holes.
One was a two-putt par. The other was a flop shot from 50 feet that he knocked in for birdie on the 17th hole. The last one -- perhaps the most important -- was a bunker shot to 7 feet and a par putt on the final hole for a 1-under 70 to tie for seventh at last year's Tampa Bay Open. That was worth $148,893.
That was enough money to give him special temporary membership on the PGA Tour, key for earning a full tour card. Before holing out that chip, Spieth was projected to be $195 short of temporary membership, and who knows what would have happened if he didn't nail it down that day in Palm Harbor, Fla.
"The last three holes on Sunday here were three of the biggest holes I played all last year," the 20-year-old said Wednesday. "I mean, none of the rest of it possibly would have happened."
The "rest of it" turned out to be far more memorable than his tie for seventh. A playoff win at the John Deere Classic (after holing a bunker shot on the 72nd hole). A 62 in the final round at TPC Boston to secure a spot in the Tour Championship. A captain's pick for the Presidents Cup, making him the youngest American ever in the matches. Seventh place in the FedEx Cup.
"I gave more fist pumps than I did at the Deere," he said about his par putt on the 18th hole. "It was pretty cool to watch, and it was one of the biggest stretches that I've ever played."
In an interview with Fox Sports Australia this week, Williams said it was a mistake. "First, when you're a caddie that never happens," he said. "Of course, I was unbelievably excited. I'd been through a pretty emotional period, and a pretty rough period the preceding 12 or so months with the fallout from Tiger. I never expected someone to put a microphone in my face."

A very nice idea and I use it to create Dates etc on an aircraft flightdeck!
nightly betas for GeekTool3 are here:
I think every person who has ever used GeekTool really wanted to see it developed. Luckily, the original developer has started GeekTool3. As of now, the alpha builds are lacking some of the features, but it looks to be a rewrite and will incorporate many of the things you see done with things like Conky. Click the link above for the homepage and surf to the forums.
I'd really like to see some continued development. I might even toss a few bucks toward the devs if they get serious.
Messed around with GeekTool for an hour or two. It is pretty esoteric to non-programmers, but it is so worth it. There is enough guidance online that someone who doesn't speak shell or perl can have (if I'm a good example) a todo list than sinks with Toodledo, a fancy clock, local weather etc. I really recommend this; it takes a while to figure out, but is very cool.
You comment "a patch for unicode support", where can i find it?

- Top 4 memory hoggers: top -l1 -o rsize -n4 -U [my username] | awk 'NR==9,NR==12 {printf "%3d %s\n", $8, $2}'
- Bluetooth status (needs blueutil, http://www.frederikseiffert.de/blueutil/): /usr/local/bin/blueutil status | awk '{print "BT: " $2}'
- Mounted local drives: df -H -l
- Load averages: sysctl vm.loadavg | sed s/'^vm.loadavg: '//
So this is like torsmo/conky for OSX? Sweet!

When I was little, my mother would often let me watch TV for a short time while she did the laundry, cleaned the house, or cooked a meal.�
Although it might not have fallen under the heading of educational or enriching, watching TV was certainly entertaining and it allowed my mother the time to accomplish some necessary chores without me or my two brothers killing or maiming each other, annoying the dog, or destroying the house.
In spite of the time I spent in front of the TV, I managed to grow up normally, speak the English language quite proficiently, and get a job as a writer. �So when I had children, I saw no problem with using the same tactics with my kids. But by the time I became a mother, parental �experts� were suddenly spouting research that said too many parents were using television as an �electronic babysitter.� While it was convenient for the parents, they noted, it wasn�t necessarily in the best interest of the kids.
Back when I was a kid, there were no studies deploring the �questionable� parenting tactics of mothers (and to a lesser extent, fathers) who found a variety of uneducational ways to occupy their kids for short periods of time so they could get things done. �But today, it seems, no parenting decision is safe from the watchful eye of the parent police.� And now, a recent study by couponcodes4you.com (which, by the way, is a money saving website, not a parenting authority) concludes disapprovingly that many of us are using tablets and smart phones to keep our kids entertained and occupied.
Personally, my babysitter of choice was candy.� When my kids were little and I needed to keep them busy, occasionally I would ply them with candy. I remember several department store outings when I desperately needed to try on new bras to accommodate my ever changing post-pregnancy figure, and the only way I could keep my 3 and 5 year olds from turning the lingerie department into a bra and panty tsunami was to sit them on the dressing room floor with a bag of gummy worms and jelly beans.� Believe me, they also had books, toys, and bra hangers to play with, but there's nothing like a good chewy gummy worm to buy you some time to get done what you need to.�Did this make me a bad parent?� I don�t think so. Did it make me a desperate parent?� Possibly. But now at 16 and 18, neither of my kids seems scarred physically or emotionally from that experience. �Additionally, I got the undergarment support I needed, I didn�t lose my mind in the process, and no one had to call in FEMA to clean up what could have been a scene of mass destruction in the lingerie department.
It concerns me that the parenting elite find it necessary to continue to dredge up this topic. I like to think I�m doing the best I can with my kids, but since I wasn�t required to take a course or pass a test to become a parent, I�ve had to do what feels right, and yes, often times I feel very insecure about that.� When the so-called experts raise a red flag on every decision we make, especially the benign ones, it doesn�t empower us to be better parents. It makes us second guess every choice we make and wonder if we are doing irreparable damage to our children for letting them watch a silly video instead of learning a third language, for eating an Oreo instead of an organic apple, or for staying inside on a beautiful day. ���If the people conducting these studies are themselves parents, they must know that we are all going on instinct – and maybe a little bit of Dr. Oz – out of love for our family and sometimes in the interest of self-preservation and the need for new bras.
When it comes to �babysitting,� I don�t know a single parent out there without childcare help who hasn�t used TV, videos, cell phone games, candy, or other distractions to keep their young children occupied for a short period of time so they could accomplish some mundane but critical task.� We can�t be 100% attentive to our kids all the time or nothing would get done.� And if we were 100% attentive to our kids, we would, in all likelihood, screw them up far more than if we let them entertain themselves with some parentally approved electronics on occasion.� The truth, as any parent will tell you, is that little kids have the attention span of a flea. While it would be nice to think you could get the job done with books and toys, any distraction, �educational� or otherwise, lasts just a few minutes, and then you have to move on to the next thing. Sometimes it�s productive. Sometimes it�s not.� But show me a parent who hasn�t let their kid do something they swore they would never let their kid do in order to have a minute to go pee alone, and I�ll show you a parent I know who has started drinking heavily by the time her kid was in pre-school.
There are certain parenting topics that continue to be raised again and again in the media. Electronic babysitting is the bad parent theme of the moment and I simply choose not to buy into it. In all fairness I have to admit, there are some hazards to letting your toddler play on your smart phone.� Recently, an Oregon dad gave his 14-month old daughter his cell phone to keep her busy, and somehow she ended up buying a car on ebay for $225. Did this teach him that cell phones don�t make good babysitters?� Probably not.� Did it teach him that his toddler is a better negotiator than he is?� Absolutely.
Since there are no studies yet on the long-term effects of excessive tablet or smart phone use by toddlers, I think most of us will continue to do whatever works to help us safely navigate the tricky parenting waters. Still, if the dad with the new car decides he wants to learn how to entertain his daughter without relying on electronics, I�m sure there�s an app for that.

PALO ALTO -- Intel (INTC) was honored Tuesday for its efforts to employ women in technical positions, and one of its managers was among three women cited for their technological contributions.
The awards were given to the Santa Clara chipmaker and Genevieve Bell, Intel Lab's director of interaction and experience research, by the Anita Borg Institute, a Palo Alto nonprofit organization that promotes the advancement of women in computer science and engineering.
"It's so important to have women role models," said the institute's CEO, Telle Whitney, who added that about 60 women and nearly 20 companies were in the running for the awards. In technological fields, "there are just way too few well-known women."
The institute said it recognized Intel for working hard to retain women with technical expertise, noting that the company's "voluntary turnover rate" of 2 percent over the last three years is one of the lowest among corporations.
"Intel has had a commitment to foster diversity for many years, and has developed a portfolio of strong programs and best practices to attract, develop and promote technical women," the institute said in a press release. "These include the popular Command Presence Workshop that helps mid-level women increase their visibility and effectiveness and the Women Principal Engineers and Fellows Forum that brings together senior individual contributors each year."
The institute also praised Intel for "constantly experimenting with new, innovative programs and practices aimed at leveraging the full benefits of a diverse technical workforce."
"We are incredibly excited about winning the award," said Kim Warren-Martin, Intel's global women's initiative manager, estimating that 28 percent or more of the company's roughly 100,000 workers are women. "Diversity brings creativity and more innovative solutions."
Bell, who was unavailable for comment, was recognized for her leadership. She is an anthropologist whose team of social scientists, human factors engineers, computer scientists and "interaction designers" study new consumer computing experiences.
"In this team and her prior roles, Bell has fundamentally altered the way Intel envisions and plans its products so that they are centered on people's needs rather than simply silicon capabilities," the institute said. It added that "Bell is a passionate advocate for the advancement of women in technology," and noted that her previous awards have included her 2012 induction into the Women In Technology International hall of fame.
Two other women were honored. Vicki Hanson, professor of inclusive technologies at the University of Dundee in Scotland and an IBM research staff member emeritus, was recognized for her "social impact." Maja Mataric -- a professor of computer science, neuroscience and pediatrics at the University of Southern California -- won for innovation.
The awards will be presented at Anita Borg's eighth annual Women of Vision Awards Banquet on May 9 in Santa Clara.

Voices: Tom Nowak, on Low-Fee Social Investing
Voices is an occasional column that allows wealth managers to address issues of interest to the advisory community. Tom Nowak is a financial adviser at Grayslake, Ill.-based Quantum Financial Planning.
When it comes to Socially Responsible Investing, or SRI, I want clients to be able to invest without paying too much in fees.
And while there are many boutique SRI firms that have been doing custom SRI portfolios and charging management fees of 0.6% to 1.3%, I don't want to put my hourly fees on top of those management fees, or direct a client to another firm that would add their management fee on top of my financial planning fee.
I define low fees as being around 0.5% of the client's total assets under management, including financial planning fees. To compete with other index funds options, I don't think the adviser and management fees should exceed that total.
For clients interested in SRI, maintaining that 0.5% may seem challenging. But I've found that I can keep their fees low while still diversifying their portfolio and keeping their investments in line with their world views, by using SRI platforms that already charge a low fee. Using a low-fee platform for SRI asset management frees clients up so they don't pay advisers for management advice. Instead, they're only paying for the planning they need to make sure their assets are positioned in the right place.
For example, Motif Investing currently charges a low, fixed, yearly rate for a basket of SRI stocks. But low-fee platforms are evolving, and in the future I think there will be even more of them to compete and drive the fee structure for SRIs down. This will continue to keep asset management costs at a bare minimum, and allow advisers to focus on tax planning, financial planning, asset location, risk assessment, cash flow and other things that could add value for a client.
SRIs tend not to outperform the market because once you're no longer trying to track the S&P 500 and other index funds you might be one or two percentage points above or below the benchmark in a given year. You have to make that expectation very clear to clients, and make sure they are comfortable with it.
However, low fees are related to better performance for clients across all types of funds. So, though SRI funds may track below other indices like the S&P 500, I feel the low expenses of low-fee SRI funds can mean better returns compared to other investment options, which can tilt the balance back in the client's favor.
Ultimately, SRI is rewarding for many people—once they understand the performance issues. But with the option to take advantage of these low-fee models, they no longer have to pay a lot simply to hold assets that go along with their personal interests in life.

Prolyphic Interview with Dead Magazine
Q: As far as i understand the connection with Reanimator was something
that Sage Francis tried to make happen. So you didn´t know each other
before that?
A: Correct. I knew of Reanimator from the production he did on Sages'
albums. But before the creation of The Ugly Truth, I have never had
the chance to meet or interact with Reanimator.
Q: "The Ugly Truth" feels very much like an album that has grown - it
flows naturally. How do you feel about an album that at most of the
times feels very intimate and personal on the lyrical side being made
together with someone that was a stranger to you not too long ago?
A: I feel that my lyrics benefited from Reanimator's production. He gave
the songs a depth and a dynamic. I think we work well together.
Sometimes its easier working with strangers, its strictly business
with no strings attached.
Q: What do you think is lyrically the biggest change/progress that you
made from your previous albums to that new one with Reanimator?
A: I am always striving to get better. I've definitely matured over the
past three years and have learned a lot being around Sage and B.Dolan.
To put it simply, my writing and recording of songs have just gotten
better in all aspects. Working with Reanimator has allowed me to step
out of my lyrical spiritual comfort zone. His production forces me out
of my shell and pushes me to try new things with my writing. I plan to
push the envelope further with the newer songs that I'm writing and
they will continue to get better.
Q: On the Side and other tracks like Artist Goes Pop or Survived
Another Winter revolve around the hardships of being an artist that
decided not to walk the path that is known to be the easy one. "I
don´t do this on the side / or do this in my spare time" - Are there
still those moments when rap´s teasing you to quit your day job?
A: No, I think having a day job keeps me in check and doesn't force me to
have to rely on my music to pay the bills. I also get a lot of
inspiration from my jobs. In 2006, I was apart of a tour called "The
Quit Your Dead End Job Tour" and everyone on that tour had quit their
"dead end job", except for me. It was ironic and you could even say
that it was false advertising.
Q: "The only thing my words serve is a purpose" - Do you see yourself
as a part of some scene?
A: My words mean something. They inspire, change, inform, criticize, etc.
My words are not hot air. They are written for a reason and a purpose.
I am not apart of any scene that I know of. If I am, I am making it
known now that I am officially out of that scene.
Q: What was the best moment you ever experienced while producing /
performing your music?
A: I did a show one time in Denton, TX and I performed this verse that
was about alcohol abuse. There was probably only 10-15 people there.
After my set, I went outside of the venue and this 24/25 year old man
approached me and told me that after hearing my verse he wanted to
quit drinking. He started his rehab by pouring the full drink of
alcohol he had out into the street. He told me that he's been
depressed and has been binge drinking for the past couple of years
with no remorse and he had lost hope until now. I don't know what
happened to him or if he ever followed through, but just to know that
something I had to say allowed him to see some light at the end of the
tunnel made it all worth it. It touched my heart.
Q: What has changed for you since you are now officially a member of
Strange Famous Records?
A: It has given me more oppourtunities as an artist. Just recently I got
a chance to perform at the Paid Dues Festival, which was the biggest
crowd I have ever performed in front of. Because of SFR The Ugly Truth
album has gotten reviewed in magazines, was featured on imeem.com, has
gotten airplay on radio stations worldwide, was #4 on the CMJ chart,
the album is available in stores nation wide and over seas. The list
goes on. Being on SFR has allowed my music to be heard by a larger
audience, which was my intent when I signed with them. Not to mention
the free jacket.
Q: Strange Famous appears to me like some kind of family business - Do
you all manage to see each other on a regular basis? How much are you
involved in the label work?
A: The first rule in SFR club is...never talk about SFR club.
Q: What are your future music projects? Will there be a SFR-European Tour?
A: I plan on releasing another album on SFR. Reanimator said that he was
down to do another one, so hopefully we can make that happen.
As far as a SFR-European tour goes, once Obama gets into office and
the US gets its respect back from the world, then it will be time for
us to go over there and fuck it all up again. For now, I will be
performing in Turku, Finland July 18th and Sage and Bernard just
performed out in Europe a couple of weeks ago, ya missed it!
I also want to mention that I like the way Dead Mag sounds when I say it.

At Wexford Elementary School in Lansing, students were treated to a pep rally. It was held to give them a positive attitude for the upcoming MEAP test.
Students in fourth through eighth grades in every school in the state will be taking the test between now and Feb. 14.
The MEAP is used to evaluate how well students are learning basic skills. It tests writing, math, science, and social studies depending on grade level.
Students have as much time as they need to complete the test. But educators say parents play an important role in test preparedness.
They say parents should make sure their student gets a good night's sleep and a healthy breakfast. But most importantly, they say, is to talk with your child about the test and give him or her positive reinforcement.

For three decades, the Los Angeles Lakers have specialized in championships and high drama. Their latest spin of the coaching wheel -- which began with Phil Jackson and ended, surprisingly, with Mike D'Antoni -- proves that they are still masters of the dramatic arts.
The Lakers fired Mike Brown on Friday. They wooed Jackson on Saturday, all but guaranteeing him the job. Then they hired D'Antoni late Sunday night, stunning fans, team employees and most of the NBA.
Until he got the call from general manager Mitch Kupchak late Sunday, even D'Antoni's agent expected Jackson to get the job.
"We're as surprised as everybody waking up and reading about it," the agent, Warren LeGarie, said Monday.
D'Antoni, 61, received a three-year, $12 million contract, with a team option for a fourth year. He underwent knee replacement surgery earlier this month, and Lakers spokesman John Black said the team isn't certain when D'Antoni will travel to Los Angeles to begin work. Interim coach Bernie Bickerstaff will continue running the Lakers until D'Antoni arrives.
The hiring reunites D'Antoni with Steve Nash, the point guard who brilliantly ran his offense in Phoenix, and places him in charge of a star-studded lineup -- featuring Kobe Bryant, Dwight Howard and Pau Gasol -- and great expectations. Those expectations cost Brown his job Friday after a 1-4 start.
In a statement, Kupchak called D'Antoni "the right person at this time to lead the Lakers forward."
Jackson was ready to try for a sixth title with the Lakers. He met for 90 minutes with Kupchak and Jim Buss, the Lakers' vice president, on Saturday morning. People briefed on the meeting say that all parties left with an understanding: The franchise wanted Jackson back, and Jackson wanted to return.
Jackson asked for two days to mull the decision and planned to meet with team officials Monday to discuss contract terms. Instead, Jackson said, he was awakened by a call from Kupchak around midnight and given the news that D'Antoni had been hired.
Some news reports indicated that Jackson was demanding too much: an ownership stake, a final say on personnel and permission to skip some road games. Those reports were rebutted by several people involved in the process, with one calling them "ridiculous."
The Associated Press contributed to this report.
