Standard & Poor's Ratings Services has affirmed its 'BBB' underlying rating on the New York State Dormitory Authority's $33.6 million revenue bonds outstanding, issued for Iona College. The outlook is stable. In our opinion, the rating reflects the college's: Solid operating surpluses on a full-accrual basis for the past seven years; Adequate enrollment and rising demand; Low and declining debt burden of 4.3% in fiscal 2008, and no additional debt plans; and Management's achieving capital improvement and enrollment goals. We believe credit concerns include the college's: Low level of unrestricted resources, at $13.7 million or 12.6% of operating expenses and 41% of debt. However, cash and investments are stronger, at $41.8 million; Small endowment of about $25.7 million for fiscal...

Cow Patty Bingo: Mr. Fleming has encouraged all sports to have a Cow Patty Bingo contest. The purpose for this is to allow other sports (especially non-revenue producing) to have a good method for fundraising, which will allow football to keep more of our gate money. The contest will be handled by the baseball boosters. The buy in is $100 per sport and the winner gets $1,000. Once we pay our buy in we keep all money for tickets sold. This money will go to the school but it will be put directly into football's budget. Tickets on $10 each, or 3 for $25. The contest will take place on the evening of our game against Center Hill (Sept 26th). Please let me know if you would like tickets to sell.
We have our first home game this Friday night. We need volunteers for the following:
1. I need two or three dads to handle the passing game at the beginning of half time.
2. We need someone to man a table to sell cow patty bingo tickets.
Also, homecoming is September 19th against Mitchell. We are in need of someone to pull a trailer in the homecoming parade to carry football players. Please let me know if you anyone would be available. The parade line up is at 8:15 that morning.

Our era is defined by technology. The potential to provide common people access to better education, healthcare and basic services like banking is possibly the most exciting transformative feature of technology.
Debjani Ghosh
Our era is defined by technology. The potential to provide common people access to better education, healthcare and basic services like banking is possibly the most exciting transformative feature of technology.
However, even though India has proved its mettle in the information technology domain the country's performance at providing computing technology and internet access to its citizens has been tardy.
All the BRIC countries had low single digit PC penetration in the early 2000's but since then PC penetration in China, Brazil and Russia has grown to 40%+ while India is still at around 10%.
The individual usage sub-index is proof of this where India is at an appalling 117th rank, while China ranks 82nd. Why is it that while business and the government become assiduous adopters of technology, individual penetration and usage of ICT remains limited?
A strong information infrastructure is a great lever of socio-economic development because it improves delivery and access to public services and strengthens democracy by giving citizens a platform to participate. But it can only happen in a meaningful way when government, industry and policy makers embrace it as a national agenda.
Abroader understanding of the pivotal role of information infrastructure in national development is now emerging amongst policy makers in the country. The government's vision of one e-literate member per household is the right one for India, and to make it happen, we need a strong public private partnership across four main areas.
The first is the building of information superhighways or broadband networks, second, the availability of a broad spectrum of devices, third, locally relevant content and services and fourth, widespread digital literacy and empowerment of citizens.
There is some progress, but it's too fragmented to have real impact. While some states and government departments are moving towards egovernance models and increasing emphasis on ICT as a means to tackle our biggest challenges like job creation transparency in delivery of government services, the ability to scale the best known methods is lacking.
We need to think national and that's not easy in India given the range of diversity we deal with. As part of the National Optic Fiber Network, the government aims to provide broadband connectivity to India's 250,000 panchayats by 2014 and, as per reports, with the deployment of 3G, 4G and BWA India could have 36 crore mobile broadband connections by 2016.
This is a game changing plan. We need to drive availability of a plethora of computing devices. In a country as complex as ours, we must be guarded about making any sweeping assumptions about consumer preference and behavior related to personal computing devices ranging from the smartphone, tablet to the humble PC.
An exciting multi-device play is emerging in India with a healthy balance of creation and consumption devices. The need of the hour is to overcome the debate of which is 'the device' for every Indian and have a concerted focus on making these devices accessible, affordable and easy to use.
Next, we need to increase focus on development of content and applications which cater to local needs, including remote delivery of healthcare services.
Attempts like Project Darpan, which is a multilingual graphical user interface aimed at simplifying the internet and PC experience by offering navigation in native languages, are a few steps in the right direction.
Such innovative projects will also help fuel an ecosystem of local language content developers and application providers that can positively impact Indian internet consumption in the future.
The last and perhaps the most important factor is the need for increased digital literacy. This does not imply knowing complex computer skills but refers to how technology can help citizens impact their livelihood and personal growth.
There is no point in teaching a farmer presentation skills as much teaching him how to use a connected device to access weather and farming technique-related information.
The industry and government need to collectively create and disseminate relevant programs to improve digital literacy. Inclusive growth cannot materialise without equal access. And the building of the information infrastructure in India will need strong participation from the government and the industry.
In fact, unprecedented collaboration between the government, industry, academia and society is required to build India's information infrastructure urgently in order to boost our national competitiveness and prevent India from being called the 'fallen angel' among the BRIC nations.

I have a Seagate HD similar to this:
I plan on using this to hold the root and swap partitions (using an
IDE->CF adapter). I ran a badblocks test on the drive, formatted, etc.
with no issues. I am a bit concerned by the fine print warning, though. My
drive shows the same warning as shown on the linked image (above),
"Embedded Applications Only." What usage is this warning intended to
prevent? In your opinion, is use as swap/root okay, or not?
Thanks in advance.

XCOM: Enemy Unknown Preview - Sectoid Shootin'
Written Thursday, May 24, 2012 By Lee BradleyView author's profile
I'm not gonna lie to you, I never played the original X-Com, nor it's numerous spin-offs and sequels. Sure, I researched the crap out of them before getting my hands on this latest iteration, but I'm no expert. It's possible that you aren't either.
Why? Because most of us here, both the writers and readers, are primarily console gamers. And that's absolutely fine, because XCOM: Enemy Unknown is meant for us. Sure, it attempts to appease the baying PC fanboys, but this is a reinvention for a new generation of gamers with a new set of expectations and desires, built with consoles in mind. Based on my recent hands-on session, it's also really bloody good.
Let's get the history out of the way first, so that all the time I spent faffing about on Wikipedia doesn't go completely to waste. The first game (called UFO: Enemy Unknown in Britain, X-COM: UFO Defense in the US and Japan, and X-Com: Enemy Unknown when it was ported to PSone later), was originally released on PC back in 1994. Developed by Mythos and Micropose, it was a turn-based strategy title lauded for its combination of scares and strategy, picking up numerous awards along the way.
In the years that have followed, the sequels and spin-offs spawned by X-Com have failed to live up to their progenitor, providing a string of largely unsatisfying pretenders to the crown. That's part of the reason why, when the XCOM FPS was announced last year, the hardcore reacted by freaking out. It was the final insult. But then XCOM: Enemy Unknown was announced and everyone was happy again. Yay!
Will this new entry to the series truly satisfy the demanding PC masses? I'm not sure. Not only is the game a way off from release, I'm also wholly unqualified to say. But do I think Enemy Unknown will be a good game? Hell yeah.
You couldn't hope for a better developer to helm the project. Firaxis Games has a rich history of strategy masterpieces in the form of the Civilization series and they've proved themselves to be uncommonly talented in bringing those experiences to consoles. It's a genre that typically translates poorly, but in Civilization Revolution Firaxis is responsible for one of the very best examples of the form. A lauded game re-imagined by the best in the business? It all bodes rather well.
Our demo centered on the very beginning of the game, with a team of XCOM operatives sent to investigate a crashed alien craft in Cologne, Germany. The craft, it turns out, was carrying Sectoids - aliens in the classic grey mould - little scuttling, big headed fellows. And let me tell you, these aren't the kind of aliens to plonk in the basket of a bicycle and help phone home. They're dangerous little bastards who come in anything but peace.
Most of the missions pan out in this way, with your team investigating a series of UFO-related incidents and panics around the world. Starting off against just a few isolated greys it's not long before you're up against giant, scuttling spider things, poisonous gas-spurting Thin Men and more. With a map viewed from an isometric perspective, the environment reveals itself as you plunge deeper into it. Threats can lie around every corner. As such, there's an all-pervading sense of tension and fear. All it takes is one wrong move for one of your soldiers to die, permanently.
The controls are streamlined for console controllers, yet don't feel compromised in any way. Each member of your four-strong squad has two action points, which you can either use as separate movements and actions, or one long extended movement. So, for example, you may want to shoot at the enemy, then retreat behind cover (cover is essential, without it you'll be dead quickly), or you can make an extra long dash to an advantageous position.
Combat is executed by pulling up a slick menu that offers options like assault rifle blasts and grenade tosses, with your relative position to your enemy, and the quality of their cover dictating your percentage chance of a successful hit. You start off with just these two simple options, but as you progress you are given access to more and more enjoyable gadgets and weaponry.
Following each successful mission you go back to your base with research materials you can use to raise cash and invest in new tech. The base itself is shown from a side-on perspective that Firaxis rather aptly refers to as the Ant Farm, as you can see everyone scuttling about doing their thing. It's here that you can commission research, promote your soldiers in order to unlock new abilities, and choose your next mission. It's a rather attractive method of delivering what could have been a confusing collection of menus and options.
Invest and upgrade wisely and what you'll end up with is a pretty baddass squad. We were shown a stage from later in the game and the team was equipped with grappling hooks, jet packs and a mind control weapon that allows you to force the enemy into a messy suicide. Each new toy opens up further tactical options, carefully thought-out to tackle the escalating threat of the enemy.
All of this is presented in a dynamic fashion, with certain movements and actions instigating a swooping camera flourish that takes you down to ground level. The graphics themselves are pleasing too, with a crisp, clear, almost cartoony aesthetic. It's a perfect fit with the pulp sci-fi subject material.
Indeed, it's hard to think of any negatives about the game based on this early showing. It's early days, but you should keep an eye on XCOM: Enemy Unknown. Whether you're a massive fan of the series, or a newcomer like me, it deserves your attention.
XCOM: Enemy Unknown is out on October 9th in North America and October 12th in Europe.

Congress is once again working overtime to complete the federal budget. National security is at the forefront of the debate, as Congress has finally passed (and the president has signed) its $459.3 billion defense appropriations bill for fiscal year 2008. (The bill also contains another $11.6 billion in emergency spending for the new mine-resistant, ambush-protected armored personnel carrier intended for the army and marines in Iraq.)
The Democrats deferred consideration of the president's full "emergency" budget request for Iraq--and other war on terror activities--with the House electing to pass a $51 billion down payment, linked to withdrawal conditions that may not survive. Along with the remainder of the president's emergency request, another $201 billion in "emergency" supplemental defense spending for the war on terror is mostly still pending. If it all passes, the Defense Department's budget for fiscal year 2008 would be $660 billion, a post-World War II record in uninflated dollars. Overall, since 9/11, U.S. defense spending has reached staggering levels: Including the 2008 funds, taxpayers and lenders will have provided more than $4 trillion for national defense by the end next September.
Have we been getting our money's worth? Terrorists haven't launched another attack on U.S. soil, but the number and lethality of global attacks has increased since 9/11. The Iraq War drones on; though Baghdad is apparently quieter, perhaps due to the U.S. "surge," perhaps due to the religious cleansing that has taken place during the last four years. The situation in Afghanistan has deteriorated. Pakistan teeters on the edge of political disintegration, while Al Qaeda and the Taliban appear to operate with near impunity in Pakistan's northwest provinces. Meanwhile, Washington appears to be moving toward a military confrontation with Iran. Turkey is poised to launch attacks against the Kurdistan Workers' Party in Iraq's sole stable region. Oil prices have soared to a historic high, driven, in part, by uncertainties in the Middle East and the Persian Gulf, adding to uncertainty about the direction of the U.S. and global economy.
Does the 2008 defense bill reverse this downward spiral? Or does it reflect Congress's fascination with using the military to solve U.S. security problems? Is a strategic rationale driving this massive spending? Or are we simply buying every capability in sight because we can? And what are the long-term consequences of this pattern for national security?
A big part of the defense bill (more than 38 percent) goes to researching the next generation of military hardware. Some of it does appear to address today's military needs. But in general, the bill is largely devoted to buying long-term equipment that will make few near-term contributions to U.S. security. There's $3.2 billion for 20 more F-22s and funds for 13 more C-130J transport aircraft, even though Defense has spent years trying not to buy it. Nearly $3 billion is provided for the next aircraft carrier, $1.7 billion for the next amphibious assault ship, and $1.8 billion for another Virginia class submarine--all three are years away from contributing to current U.S. security needs. There's $3.6 billion for the army's endless and increasingly costly "Future Combat System," an integrated set of vehicles and human systems, linked by a communications network. And there's $8.7 billion for continued pursuit of national missile defense.
How these capabilities will contribute to U.S. national security strategy is unclear. The aircraft would ensure long-term technological superiority and dominance of the sky. But over whom? And to what strategic end? Current aircraft are equally dominant. No potential adversary in the Mideast maintains or is pursuing a competing capability. The Russian capability remains inferior, and air combat with China would largely involve sea-based aircraft, which doesn't include the F-22. Why does Washington want such air dominance around the world? And given recent history, would such a role be welcomed?
The same holds true for surface ships and submarines. What is the naval strategy for these acquisitions? Will Washington continue to be responsible for securing the sea? And again, are we welcome in that role? Where would we fight littoral combat? Against whom?
As for national missile defense, few expenditures in the defense budget are more dubious. The current system deployed in Alaska is untested against a serious challenge, and it's designed to counter a long-term threat.
Expanding the ground forces raises similar dilemmas. The appropriators have provided $6 billion to add 7,000 army troops and another 5,000 marines. The ultimate goal is to permanently increase the ground force by more than 92,000 troops. But when Defense Secretary Robert Gates decided to expand the ground forces in December 2006, he offered force stress in Iraq as the rationale--though the expansion would only be realized after Iraq is largely a memory. Congress went along, afraid they would be accused of not supporting the troops if they didn't. But why is the force being expanded permanently? Are other Iraq Wars in the offing? If so, what's the rationale? The conflict with terrorist organizations doesn't require such an expansion--the military tasks involved require special forces and intelligence officers, not ground troops.
Unlike some critics of the procurement plan, I'm not making a case that all of these systems should be scrapped. My argument is that a sense of strategy is missing from Defense planning and congressional funding. The order of the day is more of everything, and sloppy, politically driven budgeting (both by the administration and Congress) has enabled this absence of strategic thinking. Defense hasn't been forced into serious budgetary choices since the first emergency supplemental funding bill in October 2001. Defense funding has risen 86 percent since then, making it possible to fund the troops and the war, while continuing to acquire military hardware in all directions. And sometimes emergency war funding bankrolls procurement programs, as the services seek in the emergency bill what they failed to get in the base budget.
Overall, the defense bill reflects the fascination of U.S. politicians and the U.S. public with the idea that every international problem can be solved by the military. There's no understanding in this bill or in the congressional debate that after seven years of hammering bluntly at the world with our defense capabilities, we're probably less secure. The stage is set for a new strategy and a new sense of U.S. statecraft, a statecraft that doesn't rely excessively on the military to preserve our well-being.
When we leave Iraq, as we surely will sooner rather than later, the pressure for smaller defense budgets will grow and emergency supplements will end. In a new administration, Defense will be forced to make choices. Congress will have to choose as well. Building a larger ground force and pushing ahead with a wide range of procurement and research programs may be good budgetary opportunism today, but it could lead to a fiscal mess in the near future.
Worse yet, we won't have developed an informed strategic view or the budget guidance we need to implement it. We won't have strengthened nonmilitary tools to carry out balanced statecraft. And we will be left with a series of draconian choices about the military we could have avoided. The result could be even greater damage to our national security.

Game 94, Mariners at Royals
Felix Hernandez vs. Will Smith, 11:10am
Happy Felix Day! The temperature's supposed to hit 108 today in Kansas City, so I'm hoping our illustrious king's well hydrated. The M's are looking for a 3-1 series win, which isn't exactly a playoff berth, but it's the kind of meager little prize that's within the 2012 team's grasp. So grasp it, guys.
Opposing the M's is another of Kansas City's young hurlers, lefty Will Smith. Pitching, and left-handed pitching in particular, was a strength of their system in recent years. Danny Duffy, John Lamb, Mike Montgomery, Chris Dwyer – they had projectable lefty starters coming out of their ears. So why have the M's faced Ryan Verdugo and Will Smith? Because the Royals have struggled to develop these talented pitchers, and they've struggled to keep them healthy. M's fans have been through this, but the Royals have lost Lamb and Duffy to Tommy John surgery, while Dwyer and Montgomery have faltered badly in the high minors. Thus, it's been up to guys who they've acquired in trade – like Verdugo (Giants) and Smith (Angels) to fill in, at least temporarily.
Smith has a 91-92 mph fastball and a slider-curve-slurve breaking ball group around 78-80mph. It's not a bad pitch, especially against lefties, but he's not a strike-out pitcher – he's more of a Bruce Chen type: a guy who'll get a few K's, but is otherwise content to pitch to fly-ball contact. Like Chen, Smith doesn't walk too many, though his very small-sample MLB stats show he may not be able to maintain his solid MiLB walk rates. In any event, this would be the time to load up on right-handed hitters, which…Jaso, huh? This'd be a perfect day for an Ichiro day-off, though I understand the Gutierrez injury makes that tough. In the minors from 2011-12, Smith had a K/9 of 8.55 against lefties with a BB/9 of only 1.67. Against righties? 5.47 and 2.79.
In another sign that the M's battering Royals pitching has officially driven the Royals crazy, the team signed retired catcher Jason Kendall to a minor league contract, and he'll report to AA and play tomorrow. The Rainiers drove Ryan Divish crazy last night by playing an 18 inning game, that ended on a walk-off HR from Scott Savastano. The winning pitcher? Scott Savastano. Divish's laments at his luck in covering the game eventually became more intriguing than the game itself, at least until he reached his daily tweet limit (I had no idea such things existed). Obscured by the bad at-bats and decent relief work by both teams was the very good start by Danny Hultzen. He went 6 innings, giving up 1 run on a HR, and walked 2. He threw a wild pitch with a runner on 3rd, but catcher Brandon Bantz threw out the runner at the plate – apparently Danny Hultzen blocked the plate expertly, which, you know, good for you, but please don't do that again. Dan Straily's dominant start was spoiled when he was left in one batter too long – Darren Ford doubled to lead off the 9th and later scored on a sac-fly to send the game into extras.
Victor Sanchez and reliever Grady Wood, both of whom had been excellent up until yesterday, got blasted in last night's loss to Salem-Keizer. Disappointing. Wander Marte lost for Pulaski, but I'm pleased to announced the Clinton Lumberkings defeated Stalin (Gerson) last night 4-1. All eyes are on the Arizona League today as Cubs prospect Jorge Soler (a Cuban defector who drew a big, but not quite Cespedes-sized bonus) makes his US debut against the AZL Mariners. Hector Noesi starts for Tacoma as the Rainiers try to keep within 9 innings. They've gone 13 and 18 in back-to-back nights. Forrest Snow starts for Jackson today.

So happy I got out of work today. Now I get to sit down and watch Felix's start from beginning to end, something I haven't been able to do his last couple of outings.
Also, this is one of my favorite lineups.

Jaso in the lineup, finally, but against a lefty? Dammit Wedge.
msfanmike on
July 19th, 2012 11:36 am
KC has altered their game day pitcher twice this series, so the Mariners have ended up facing 5 lefties in a row. Wedge has wanted to get Jaso in the lineup for the past couple days and committed to having him play today, regardless. He had no other options other than to play Jaso against a lefty. What else could he have done?
Westside guy on
July 19th, 2012 11:54 am
I like the lineup – don't understand the order though.
Also, Jaso sucks against lefties. He really does. This year he's batting .048 against lefties, with a wRC+ of -54. That's even worse than Olivo is against righties! Those are SSS values of course; but for his career they're .158 and 52.

July 19th, 2012 11:57 am
I think Montero likes facing AAA pitching, Terry.
msfanmike on
July 19th, 2012 11:59 am
Yes, Jaso sucks against lefties and Wedge has stated that he has "earned a start against one" – whatever that means, the result is he started today, laid down a nice sac bunt and the team cashed them both in. Plus, he is apparently 'wise' enough to strap on the gear when it is 107 degrees. That will likely earn him some extra 'grit' points with Wedge.
I presume we will be seeing a lot of Jaso when we see a string of rhp's.

Came home for lunch – just in time to see Saunders leg out that hit. Nice hustle, Michael! Still have no idea why he is hitting 8th on this team, but oh well …
Westside guy on
July 19th, 2012 12:03 pm
I wasn't meaning to complain against his start today, Mike. It would be cruel and unusual punishment to not give Olivo at least one day off in the KC heat.

July 19th, 2012 12:04 pm
Does Smoak have a 3-4 game hitting streak going now? It would be nothing to get excited about, as we're playing KC, but I'm still curious.
Westside guy on
July 19th, 2012 12:05 pm
Smoak was hitless yesterday, Steve – and he looked bad doing it.
He can hit AAA pitching though. Too bad he had to face an actual major league pitcher yesterday.
stevemotivateir on
July 19th, 2012 12:05 pm
I was just thinking the same thing, Mike. Saunders has been hitting near the bottom for a while now, while Smoak never seems to dip below 6th. Wedge-logic, I guess.
stevemotivateir on
July 19th, 2012 12:06 pm
Thanks Westy. I didn't catch much of yesterdays game. No TV at the moment, so I'm peaking on gamechannel now and then.
stevemotivateir on

Hey wait a second…. does that make two things Smoak can do? Hit an occasional mistake AND AAA pitching? Can we shop him as a multi-tool player now?

Saunders should really be hitting higher against lefties. Seager (KC notwithstanding) isn't hitting them as well as Condor is; plus having Olivo, Jaso (against lefties) and Smoak (against anyone larger than a third grade girl) hit ahead of him is just bizarre decision making.
Westside guy on
July 19th, 2012 12:18 pm
Montero really is feasting on KC pitching!
Paul B on
July 19th, 2012 12:19 pm
It's really good to see Montero swinging the bat well.
Paul B on
July 19th, 2012 12:26 pm
Hey, Olivo isn't the only Mariner catcher who can throw out a base stealer!
Wedge, take note.
stevemotivateir on
July 19th, 2012 12:27 pm
Yeah I don't get it either, Westy. Saunders should be hitting much higher.

Saw a tweet from the Mariners PR about the team's offense on the road so I had to look this up to see what they mean.
Despite the constant knocks on the offense, the Mariners have scored more runs on the road than any team in baseball. They've played more road games than other teams so they aren't really the #1 offense. But away from Safeco Field and its horrible ballpark affects the Mariners appear to have a top 5 offense and a bottom 5 pitching staff.
I checked two source, so I know the data is right but it's hard to believe. The problem with this team is the pitching sucks?!?

The Royals have a starting pitcher named Will Smith, and nobody has made a Fresh Prince joke yet. Disappointing.

I know that show existed, Jake, but I never watched it – so it's hard to come up with something relevant.
And everyone else on here tends to be serious all the time.
Paul B on
July 19th, 2012 12:33 pm
Well, apart from Felix, this team really doesn't have much of a starting rotation. So, yes, the pitching is still a problem.
This team really isn't as bad as their record indicates, though. Pythag has them at 44-49, which feels about right to me.
Westside guy on
July 19th, 2012 12:42 pm
Hey ESPN.com has added WAR to their stats pages!

Geez, Jake. Didn't you know, that nobody here has a sense of humor?

July 19th, 2012 12:52 pm
So, it wasn't enough that Will Smith had to get his daughter into singing with that stupid "I whip my hair" song, now he has to try his hand at pitching?
Paul B on
July 19th, 2012 12:52 pm
When Montero gets a double, you know it went a long way (I'm listening to the radio).
Westside guy on
July 19th, 2012 12:52 pm
Yeah, whenever I knew Liddi was gonna play left – I'd load up "Yakety Sax" in iTunes.
Westside guy on

July 19th, 2012 12:54 pm
Montaro really likes KC(AAA) pitching. haha
Mid80sRighty on
July 19th, 2012 12:55 pm
Wow, Felix only has 59 pitches through 6 innings? And the M's have a 5-1 lead? Yeah, this game is over.
Westside guy on
July 19th, 2012 12:58 pm
I love the "Scout" stuff on Gameday – it's such crap. They're saying "Bueno may want to go after Smoak rather than Jaso" and listing their relative OPS… but ignoring the fact that Bueno's a lefty and Jaso especially struggles against lefties.
Mid80sRighty on
July 19th, 2012 12:59 pm
I don't know Westy, that might be a toss up in my mind. Smoak is terrible. haha
Westside guy on
July 19th, 2012 1:09 pm
Mid80s, could Scout's stuff then be described as "bad process, good result"?
Paul B on
July 19th, 2012 1:13 pm
I get the impression that Felix could be a successful pitcher with 3 or 4 completely different pitching strategies.
Westside guy on
July 19th, 2012 1:13 pm
Today, Will Smith has failed to Get Jiggy wit It.
Westside guy on
July 19th, 2012 1:14 pm
But Montero has been a real Party Starter.
Westside guy on
July 19th, 2012 1:15 pm
And Smoak is just Freakin It.

"The Royals have a starting pitcher named Will Smith, and nobody has made a Fresh Prince joke yet. Disappointing."
I think it is the extra "L" in his first name that threw everyone off.
I also kinda expected a comment about Smith today, but more along the lines of "hey, he's not black anymore." Then I realized that nobody would ever say something that stupid.
msfanmike on

Westy, are you stroking out again?

Mike, you're just a parent that doesn't understand
Mid80sRighty on
July 19th, 2012 1:26 pm
89 pitches through 8 innings. Felix is a machine, not quite an Aaron Cook machine, but a machine nonetheless.
Westside guy on
July 19th, 2012 1:28 pm
Kyle Seager, Party Starter.
Westside guy on
July 19th, 2012 1:28 pm
Felix is Just Cruisin.
Westside guy on
July 19th, 2012 1:29 pm
Yeah, the odds of Montero hitting a triple are pretty low, methinks.
Mid80sRighty on
July 19th, 2012 1:30 pm
Haha Westy, I was just about to say something about Montero and triples in the same sentance.
msfanmike on
July 19th, 2012 1:30 pm
Correction, Grandparent (25 year old step daughter had a daugher a little over a year ago). Yeah, weird. Pretty cool, too.
Oh, I understand Mid-80′ … I just have to have an explanation for any time Westy flips out – and I just figure there must be a medical related reason in consideration of his age. It is important to ask potential stroke victims easy to answer questions to see if they are indeed, okay.
"Will Smith rap titles" is not evidence of being "okay" … so I am not exactly sure if my buddy Westy is still with us or not. You still there, buddy?
Paul B on
July 19th, 2012 1:31 pm
In case anyone is wondering, Montero has zero triples in the Majors, but he did hit 4 in AAA.
msfanmike on
July 19th, 2012 1:32 pm
Sweet !!!
Insurance run.
Westside guy on
July 19th, 2012 1:34 pm
Dementia can take odd forms, Michael.
msfanmike on
July 19th, 2012 1:37 pm
Until Montero "gets" and starts to "hit" RHP's with regularity, why the hell doesn't Wedge just platoon he and Jaso at C? Like, all the time!
Montero can still DH against RHP's when he isn't catching, but can rest/sit on days when they face a real good RHP. He is only 22 years old. He is 4 years away from the beginning of his prime. 4 years away from the beginning of it!
It is pretty amazing he is this good – at this age, actually.
I know, choir, preaching, rhetorical …. bla bla bla.
msfanmike on
July 19th, 2012 1:38 pm
That's not another Wil Smith rap song title, is it?
Westside guy on
July 19th, 2012 1:39 pm
Montero's triples in AAA must've been generously scored fielding errors.
Westside guy on
July 19th, 2012 1:40 pm
I just Got To Be Real, Mike.
(Wikipedia is great for stuff like this)
Paul B on
July 19th, 2012 1:41 pm
Yeah, I was thinking his triples must have been fielder aided. Like the outfielder ran into the fence and was knocked cold.
Mid80sRighty on
July 19th, 2012 1:42 pm
Perhaps the fields didn't have fences Westy. It was minor league baseball afterall…
msfanmike on
July 19th, 2012 1:42 pm
Do you think Montero is actually slower than Dan Wilson was? I am not sure. He does not have Dan's running form, but Dan could literally stop on 1B at a dead sprint from home plate while trying to beat out a single. At least, in his later days. Edgar and Dan were really, really slow the last few years of their careers.
Montero looks like he is running with shin guards on, but is he really slower than Dan Wilson was?
Opinions …
msfanmike on
July 19th, 2012 1:44 pm
You were using Wikipedia Westy? Wow, I never would have guessed that. I figured you knew those rap song titles by memory.
Mid80sRighty on
July 19th, 2012 1:45 pm
Tough call, Mike. Both Edgar and Dan were extremely slow as well.
terryoftacoma on
July 19th, 2012 1:51 pm
Montaro is slow at 22. I don't want to imagine how slow he'll be at 35.
Westside guy on
July 19th, 2012 1:58 pm
Nah, Mike, I can only quote rap titles if they're by Vanilla Ice.
Westside guy on
July 19th, 2012 2:01 pm
Yeah, I was thinking his triples must have been fielder aided. Like the outfielder ran into the fence and was knocked cold.
To explain a Montero triple, not only would the original fielder have to run into the fence and be knocked out cold – but the fielder next to him, coming over to get the ball after seeing the first fielder go down, would have to trip over the first fielder and break his leg.
And then a fan would've had to jump onto the field and grab the ball – at which point Montero would be awarded third base.
msfanmike on
July 19th, 2012 2:05 pm
Vanilla Ice !!
Atta baby. I mean "ice, ice baby."
Hey mid 80′s – we should play catch at the elementary school some day. My arm still kinda works. We could probably take BP, too – if there aren't rules against it. There will be no running of the bases, however. If you have kids, they can shag the baseballs for us.
EricL on
July 19th, 2012 3:19 pm
Don't you get awarded third base if a fielder throws his glove at the ball? I think that's the most likely Montero triple.
justdave on
July 19th, 2012 8:54 pm
I wish we had 10 more games with KC, our hitting stats would probably look pretty good by then.

Jan, I feel awful for you! I don't like being hot either. Once I lived 'up North' and none of the homes had A/C, because it NEVER gets hot enough. So of course the summer I'm there, they had record breaking high temps. It was beyond miserable!
We tried everything we could think of to cool off. We would go to the mall and stay all day. We would go see movies we weren't even interested in just to be in the A/C. But eventually we had to go home and it was so hard to sleep at night in the heat.
I have lived in Houston for many years now and it is SO hot here, but everything has A/C. In fact, it is ridiculous how cold indoor places are! I have to take a sweater with me to work, to church, to the movies, and the coldest places are the restaurants. It is hard to eat with your teeth chattering!
Also, I stay sick a lot during the really hot months. When you go outside your skin gets hot, sticky and moist. Then you go inside and freeze!

Sustainable energy firm files for bankrputcyKevin OConnor / Staff File Photo
Carbon Harvest Energy of Brattleboro the nations first integrated renewable energy-to-agriculture and algae biodiesel project has filed for bankruptcy. These year-round greenhouses were built to take advantage of waste heat from the former Brattleboro landfill.
BRATTLEBORO A Vermont company that tried to develop a sustainable food, energy and algae system has filed for bankruptcy.
Carbon Harvest of Brattleboro filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection last week.
Carbon Harvest opened in 2009. The plan was to use methane gas from the Brattleboro landfill to generate heat that would warm greenhouses and raise produce. Carbon dioxide would be used to help grow algae.
The bankruptcy is disappointing, said Windham Solid Waste Management District Executive Director Bob Spencer. It was a great use of landfill gas and their plan to produce food was an attractive piece of the puzzle, he said.
Carbon Harvest was able to use the methane gas and produce energy, but the food, fish and algae systems were never commercially viable, the Brattleboro Reformer reported.
The company announced it had run out of cash and laid off all but three of its employees in October, but then-president Don McCormick had hoped to keep the business afloat.
A new group of investors took over earlier this year and McCormick resigned.
Steve Magowan, an attorney representing the new investment team, said he recommended that the company file for bankruptcy.
They ran out of money in October, and they have been out of money since then, he said.
Carbon Harvest received two loans from the Vermont Economic Development Authority for $360,000 in 2010 and $450,000 in 2012, said VEDA CEO Jo Bradley.
VEDA has the first lien on the companys assets and will be active in the bankruptcy hearings.
This was a very innovative concept and most of the time those are the most difficult projects to make work, she said.MORE IN Vermont NewsRUTLAND Kerry Branons upbringing in Vermont helped inspire her to care for the lives around...

At 3:26 p.m., firefighters were dispatched to the fire at 3190 Skinner Mill Road, where flames were visible from the street, dispatch confirmed.
The fire apparently started in a bedroom on the bottom apartment and spread to the one above it, Battalion Chief Bryan McFeely said.
He said two people were in the apartment when the fire started, but both escaped unharmed.
"There is heavy smoke and fire damage to the hallway," McFeely said. "But it did not spread to the neighboring apartments."
He said the second floor was weak from damage, which concerned him.
He said three ladder trucks and four engine companies responded, along with the department's ambulance Rescue 1.
Millbrook Pointe neighborhood watch member Richard Ray said he saw the flames coming from the bottom apartment and called 911. Firefighters first responded to the other side of the complex but were quickly rerouted.
"The trees caught on fire next to the building even," Ray said. "Luckily, the wind was going in the right direction and blew the flames away from the next building."
Ray, a resident of Millbrook Pointe for three years, said this was the first fire he has seen in the complex.

A man from Pontiac was arrested in Jackson Tuesday night after narcotics officers serve a search warrant on drug charges.
According to Lt. Dave Cook, undercover officers from the Jackson Narcotics Enforcement Team had been buying heroin from the guy. They finally arrested him at his girlfriend's home in the 8000 block of South Jackson Road in Liberty Township Tuesday night.
Officers found nearly 4 grams of heroin and a stolen gun on the man during his arrest, enough for a felony charge. The drugs have a street value of $800-$1200.
Cook tells us they've been watching this guy for a while and believe he is a mid-level dealer. The suspect could be arraigned as early as Wednesday. The suspect's girlfriend could also be charged in the incident.

Keystone Professionalism & Leadership Program
The Keystone Program is being reinvented. A new description is coming soon.
The Keystone Professionalism & Leadership Program ("Keystone Program") is an optional program designed to help students prepare for their legal careers. The name of the Keystone Program derives from the concept of a "keystone." When an arch is built, the keystone is the last piece placed during construction and locks all of the other stones into position, allowing the arch to bear weight. Similarly, without professionalism and leadership, one's professional career cannot ascend to the heights it is capable of reaching.
The Keystone Program operates much like the Continuing Legal Education (CLE) programs that licensed attorneys participate in throughout most of the United States. It affords students additional opportunities to gain professional, strategic, interpersonal, practical, and leadership skills that are critical and necessary for career success.

Arizona State Sun Devils
ASU's Pac-12 opponents for 2013 announced
Back when there were only ten teams in the Pac-10 (makes sense, doesn't it?), there wasn't much intrigue about what teams would land on your schedule.
The Pac-10 played a schedule of nine conference games, meaning every team would play every other team in the conference every year.
But since Colorado and Utah were added to form the Pac-12 prior to the 2011 season, and with a nine-game conference schedule still in play, every team misses two teams from the other division.
The schedule pairings for 2013 have been announced for all 12 conference teams, and here's how it shakes out for the Arizona State Sun Devils:
Home opponents: Arizona, Colorado, Oregon State, USC, Washington
Road opponents: Stanford, UCLA, Utah, Washington State
ASU will not play Oregon or California in 2013
That's right — the Sun Devils avoid playing Oregon, which is a huge advantage considering Oregon's status as a powerhouse over the last decade. The only other team in the South to miss Oregon is USC.
Arizona State's schedule will also feature non-conference home games against Sacramento State and Wisconsin and a neutral site contest against Notre Dame at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
Check out the rest of the Pac-12 pairings here.

text: mumbai: the shapoorji pallonji group, which has interests in construction and textiles, is now planning a foray into the transaction processing business. the group intends setting up a back-office processing facility on a 240-acre property it owns in hadapsar, a suburb in pune. the facility will undertake the entire gamut of processing services including medical transcription, hr and payroll processing, accounting services. the new business is expected to be housed under a new company that is yet to be incorporated. "we are planning an entry into the back-office processing business and are presently working out the details," said shapoor p mistry, managing director, shapoorji pallonji group, when contacted. he, however, refused to disclose how much his group plans to invest in the new business. wipro and infosys have also acquired land at hadapsar in pune where the maharashtra industrial development corporation has developed a large it park. though it will be a while before the new business is up and running, it is expected that a chunk of the work it undertakes will come from companies within the tata fold. with an 18 per cent stake, the shapoorji pallonji group is the largest shareholder of tata sons — the holding company of the tata group. the lure of highly talented, low-cost labour compared with developed markets like europe and the us, has largely been responsible for the trend of mncs relocating their data processing operations to cheaper countries like india. ge and american express were among the first to move their back-end processing to india. a couple of years back, the hsbc group set up hsbc data processing india which has data processing centres in mumbai and hyderabad, and handles the back-end functions of the group worldwide. a little over a year ago, the standard chartered group set up scope international in chennai for the same purpose.

Elton John's husband David Furnish said Thursday night that the couple's feud with Madonna is over.
Furnish said some nasty things about Madonna back in January, after she beat out John for Best Original Song at the Golden Globes, calling the singer desperate and narcissistic.
But on his way out of the Abbey in West Hollywood Thursday, Furnish told TMZ there's no more bad blood between the them, saying "I think she's a great artist. She's an inspiration to all of us."
When pressed about the sincerity of his comments, Furnish said, "Seriously ... I love her."
Of course he does.

FSA must be 'flexible' to advisers' RDR needs, Tyrie
More on UK Regulation
- Level term cover recommendation costs adviser
- Waiting times for FCA authorisation worsen
- Dentons defends Sipp providers' stance on 'interest turn'
In focus: Future of Independence
The Financial Services Authority has told the Treasury Select Committee that firms can apply for an extension to the RDR deadline and a waiver can be applied if the adviser, his spouse or child is in ill-health or if there is a spousal bereavement, following the TSC's request that the regulator be accommodating of advisers' needs.
In an exchange of letters published today (7 September) between Martin Wheatley, managing director of the FSA, and Andrew Tyrie, TSC chairman, Mr Wheatley said the regulator is "committed to the RDR timetable" but it will be "proportionate" in its approach to supervision.
Mr Tyrie's letter says the committee still recieves correspondance from concerned advisers regarding the cliff-edge and that he would like further information on the FSA's waivers of the qualification requirements and a work-based assessment system.
Mr Wheatley's letter, dated 3 August, reinterates that firms can apply for a deadline extension through its waiver process but emphasises firms will only be granted a waiver if they pass the statutory test requiring the firm to demonstrate that the rule is either unduly burdensome or not fit for purpose and that modifying it does not create an undue risk for consumers. In particular, firms need to provide "robust" evidence setting out the exceptional circumstances that prevent an adviser from completing an appropriate qualification by the end of 2012.
The FSA has received 47 waivers, of which 18 have been granted, 2 have been rejected, 21 have been withdrawn and 6 are under consideration. The letter went on to say that approved applications have generally been on the grounds of ill health of the adviser; a spouse or child that has required the adviser to act as a carer; or spousal bereavement.
Mr Wheatley highlights that there are now four alternative assessments available for individuals who prefer not to sit formal examinations but said that most advisers are opting for the more traditional examinations.
However, Mr Tyrie highlighted in his letter, dated 20 June, that the TSC had previously recommended the cliff-edge nature of the implementation of the RDR be tempered by a one-year delay, a system of proper supervision and a system for providing flexibility, such as grandfathering, to advisers on a case-by-base basis.
The FSA rejected the supervision point and the delay almost immediately, which Hector Sants, former chief executive of the FSA, later apologised for in Parliament.
The letter, dated 20 June, said: "The FSA must remain flexible to their needs, while maintaining the standards required to protect consumers."
Mr Tyrie said that although the RDR will "radically reform" the provision of financial advice in the UK, its introduction has placed a "heavy burden" on practitioners, "with an attendant risk for consumers".
He said: "The banning of commission and the introduction of a clear market price will be carefully monitored by the Treasury Committee in an effort to ensure that the expected benefits flow to consumers.

Skill Level Intermediate
It doesn't matter how good the UI designer tools are inside Visual Studio. They can't do everything for you. At some point, we must write some code. I'm going to write some code in this project called InfoReaderV3, and I'm going to double-click on this MainWindow.xaml file. So let's take a minute to look around our UI. I have a number of elements in here from the previous movie, and I'm going to work with these two buttons here: this Search Bing button and this Get RSS button. So the idea is you're going to type some text in the Search Term textbox, and this textbook has a name; it's called searchText.
Names are important because in order to talk to them in your code, they have to have an identifying name. The user's going to type something in this text box. They'll click on the Search Bing button. Now, as you can see, this button does not have a name, so I need to provide it a name. And then I'll take the results from the Bing web site, and I'll put it done here in this control, which is named browser; it's a web browser control. So before I continue, I would like to name both these buttons. I will click on the Search Bing button and then go over to the Properties window and type in a new name up here at the top.
I'm going to call this one searchAsRSSButton. Now, by naming this, I'll also get more readable event procedure names when I'm ready to write my code. So, now I'm going to go to this button. I'll show you several ways to add code to your project. I'm going to double-click on the Search Bing button, and Visual Studio will switch me over to the Code window, and it automatically stubs in a function with the name of my button and then _Click. The other way to stub in code--I'll switch back, I just did a Ctrl+Tab to switch back to the other item-- I'll click on this RSS button, and instead of double-clicking here, I can go over to the Properties window and click the Events tab, and then I can find the event I want--in this case the Click event--and double-click here, or I can type my own name in, if I'd rather.
I think I'll just double-click on this one to stub the code in here too. Now I have these two buttons. I'm going to write one more procedure, my own custom procedure, which I'm going to call from both these buttons. It's going to be a private function. It's going to return a void value. It's going to be called SendToBing(). I need the two parentheses to signify that it's a method. Then I move down to the next line, and I type the two curly braces, which signify the section where I write my code inside the function. I'm going to pass in a parameter from both of these functions.
The idea is if you click on the searchBingButton, then I'm going to pass in a false, because I don't want the data returned as an RSS feed. So I'm going to create a parameter down here called searchAsRSS, and then up here, I will call that function. The nice thing about the IntelliSense Engine in Visual Studio is that it knows that I've just written that function, and it shows me in my IntelliSense list. I'm going to click the down arrow on my keyboard and then press the Tab key to have it finish typing, then an open parenthesis, the word "false", and then to end the line of code in C# you use a semicolon.
I'm now going to copy this, right-click and choose Copy, and then I'm going to come down here and do a Ctrl+V to paste, and then I need to change this to true. Let's review what I did. I wrote two procedures using the Visual Studio "auto stubbing in of the code" future. That's not the official name, but I just double-clicked on the button, and it stubbed in the code. Then I wrote my own custom function down here, SendToBing, and then I'm calling that custom function when I click on the two buttons. Now, you have the basic infrastructure written. In the next movie, I'll show you how to test this code and also how to retrieve information from the Bing search engine.
