KISSIMMEE, Fla. (AP) -- Judging from some of the talk coming out of the New York and Philadelphia camps, the National League East must be a two-team race.
But not according to Atlanta Braves third baseman Chipper Jones. He shrugs off the back-and-forth banter between the last two division champions.
Jones says the Phillies and the Mets know Atlanta will be competitive.
The Braves have finished third each of the last two years after winning 14 straight division titles.
Philadelphia claimed the East championship last season, backing up Jimmy Rollins' preseason prediction that the Phillies would be the team to beat. Of course, it helped when the Mets endured a historic collapse in the final weeks.
New York then acquired ace Johan Santana from Minnesota, prompting normally soft-spoken Carlos Beltran to proclaim the Mets are the undisputed favorite.
No one seems to be mentioning the Braves, though they have one of the best-hitting teams in the league and took steps to upgrade their starting rotation by signing Tom Glavine and acquiring top prospect Jair Jurrjens.

Toronto Journal: Mayor Ford Defeats Hulk Hogan in Arm-Wrestling Match
By David George-Cosh
Touted as the "Thrilla in Tarrana," Toronto Mayor Rob Ford took on pro wrestling great Hulk Hogan in an arm-wrestling match Friday…and won.
Mr. Ford agreed to go head-to-head with Mr. Hogan in a promotional match to help kick off FanExpo, an annual convention aimed at comic book and pop culture enthusiasts
Mr. Hogan, one of the professional wrestling world's biggest stars, was game for the publicity. He was in town to sign autographs at the convention and was scheduled to appear at an "uncensored" question and answer session this weekend. FanExpo organizers expect to draw around 90,000 visitors this weekend.
Meanwhile, Mr. Ford, no stranger to controversy, was eager to face off against the 12-time world champion, flexing his muscles for reporters ahead of the battle.
FanExpo participants, though, missed out on the excitement. The bout was only open to roughly 50 journalists in a basement room in a five-star downtown Toronto hotel.
After Messrs. Ford and Hogan were introduced – with the mayor of Canada's biggest city arriving to the beat of Survivor's "Eye of the Tiger" – the actual match lasted less than 20 seconds.
The Hulkster took an early lead, gripping his opponent's hands with gusto as he trash talked Mr. Ford.
"Not only am I going to rip this arm off, I'm going to take your job while I'm at it, brother," Mr. Hogan bellowed.
But Mr. Ford caught a second wind. "I own this town," he screamed at Mr. Hogan, after which he smashed the wrestling icon's left hand to the table.
"That was a setup," Mr. Hogan was quick to state after the match, as Mr. Ford raised both arms in victory.
Doug Ford, the mayor's brother and a city councilor, said it was a tough match to watch, but was happy to see his brother emerge victorious.
"My hero growing up was Hulk Hogan. My hero now is Rob Ford," he said.
As Mr. Hogan made his way toward the exit, grasping his apparently injured left shoulder, he remained gracious in defeat.
"I think Rob Ford missed his calling. He should have been a wrestler," he said.
Mr. Ford, however, remained focused on his mandate to promote Toronto, extolling the economic virtues FanExpo was having on the city's tourism industry.
Still, the mayor was somewhat coy when asked how he defeated the wrestler.
"I never backed down, and I never will," he said. "It was all in the wrist."

Morning MoneyBeat: Blame the Weather
MARKET SNAP: At 6:00 a.m. ET, S&P 500 futures up 0.2%. 10-Year Treasury yield higher at 2.76%. Nymex down 39 cents at $102.36. Gold 0.2% lower at $1320. In Europe, FTSE 100 up 0.2%, DAX flat and CAC 40 up 0.2%. In Asia, Nikkei 225 up 2.9% and Hang Seng up 0.8%.
WATCH FOR: January Existing Home Sales (10:00 a.m. Eastern Time): seen -3.5% at 4.7 million; previously +1.0% at 4.87 million. Charter Communications, Dish Network, Donaldson and Ecolab are among companies scheduled to report quarterly results.
Exactly one minute after a bleak manufacturing report was released Thursday morning, Andrew Brenner of National Alliance Securities blasted an email to his clients. The body of the note was blank. The subject line was succinct: "Philly Fed awful…probably weather related."
The market, like Mr. Brenner, shrugged off the bad news.
Despite the brutal winter weather and bleak economic figures, the S&P 500 has risen in eight of the past 10 days and is approaching a new record high. The market has been unfazed by the weather, even as the discouraging data pile up.
Disappointing construction, manufacturing and housing data? It's all the weather's fault. A pair of lackluster jobs reports? Blame it on the polar vortex. Downbeat retail sales? People don't shop when it snows.
Wal-Mart Stores, which pointed to winter storms as one of the reasons U.S. sales declined during the fourth quarter, said it temporarily shuttered 200 stores due to bad weather.
"It's not an excuse, it's an explanation," Wal-Mart U.S. President Bill Simon told reporters Thursday. Wal-Mart shares dropped 1.8% Thursday, while the broad market rose.
The question now is once the weather heats up, will the economy follow suit? The economy finished 2013 with its best second half of the year in terms of GDP growth since 2003. Will those positive trends resume, or is the recent blip the beginning of a new slowdown?
Many investors remain optimistic.
"The good news is that this is likely only transient noise, and that rising temperatures in March and April should revive everything from auto sales to factory activity, helping the U.S. economy return to its improving trend," said Scott Minerd, global chief investment officer at Guggenheim Partners.
He's taking a glass half-full approach to the situation, noting that "pent-up consumer demand should re-accelerate growth in the spring." He expects GDP growth of 3.5% or more this year, which would be the strongest since 2004.
Investors are likely to keep ignoring much of the upcoming economic data until the weather becomes less of a factor. Meanwhile, the S&P 500′s path back to record highs has a clear forecast ahead.

If you follow my Blog you know that we live in a rural area with no high speed internet options. You have heard me whine about it from time to time. Before I go on let me state emphatically that if you have any other internet options take them! Do not get Satellite!! Since nothing else is available to us, we finally held our noses and had a Wildblue / Exede 12 Satellite Dish installed. The installer was great and I have no complaints with him. The speed is great and the service is mostly reliable. The problem lies in the way they meter your usage.
They can't seem to get their meter to work properly, sometimes it just eats up all of your data, even when you have your computer shut down and are not using a wifi router. This happened to us during our first month and I had to call Customer Service. They did restore a few gigabytes to our account but that was not sufficient and we ended up being slowed down to where we were back to dial-up speeds.
Then the next month when our account was to reset with a new 10 GB, it renewed fine but somehow it didn't reset us back to normal speed, here we were stuck on dial-up speeds at Satellite prices. So, again I called Customer Service!! They got us back to normal speed and said they would credit us 5 GB. Well, of course that never happened.
This past month everything was just rosy. Our account reset on the 24th of April and after a few weeks I posted on their Facebook page and Tweeted about how happy I was with their service. Big mistake! We average using less than 200 MB per day, so on Saturday the 18th we had a little over 7 GB left to last us the rest of our cycle, which meant that we could relax a little and watch a few news stories and youtube videos for the remaining days before we reset to 10 GB on May 24th.
However, on the 18th I stayed up late to use their LNFZ (Late Night Free Zone). That is where you can use all the data you want for free from midnight to 5:00 a.m. I downloaded updates and watched a few things during this free time from 1:00 am to 4:00 am. The next morning we got an email from Exede warning us that we were getting dangerously close to using all our data for the cycle. I went to check our usage meter and it had counted the 4 GB that I had used during the Free Zone.
I explained what had happened on the Wildblue / Exede Discussion Forum and was not surprised to find that others had experienced the same problem. We were told by one of the Customer Service Reps. to send them our names and phone numbers and they would call us. It is now May 22nd and we have still not received a call or any other attempt to reimburse the data that was stolen from us.
I am sure that they think all will be forgiven when our account is reset and we begin a new cycle but my trust in this company is gone. They are not trustworthy and they have terrible customer service. Their representatives are never on the same page, they make promises that they don't keep and their meters are horribly unreliable.
Once you sign that contract you are stuck and they know it. I would not recommend this company and feel bad for the people who we have already referred. My only recourse and satisfaction is to warn others before they make the same mistake that we have made. If, in the future, they should win back my trust. I will revise this post.
** 9/4/2013 UPDATE: I must say that the past 3 months have been smooth sailing and I am loving EXEDE! It is super fast and has been totally trouble free. The only time we have lost connection has been during really bad storms. I can't comment on whether Customer Service has improved because I have not needed them.
With that said, they currently have been making more changes and as of today I can no longer access my Usage Page. While using the Late Night Free Zone last night, I lost my connection and my modem lights started flashing in strange sequences. They were probably updating the modem software. I don't like change because it is normally painful. If I experience any problems during these updates and changes I will post here.
*** 9/13/2013 Update: All is well! I found that they changed the link I was using to get into my account. Exede is working fine for us at this time.
10 Gigs per month however is very restricting if you want to do anything but surf, Facebook and do email. Don't even think about trying to use Exede for more than a couple of people. Not family friendly at all!
No music, no video, no gaming, no software downloads, no computer updates or online backups, unless you are a night owl and want to use the Late Night Free Zone from approx. 12:00 am to 5:00 am. Even then, the Exede usage meter gives you no indicator about when this free zone actually starts and ends. It is suppose to be according to your local time but it is unreliable.
Conclusion: If you are an elderly couple living on a farm in rural America that has been forsaken by your Country and companies that are only interested in highly populated areas, then Exede Satellite is figuratively and literally Heaven sent!

With the annual Winter Meetings set to kick off on December 3, the rumor mill is about to shift into overdrive, and you don't want to be caught in the middle of the road when this thing gets going.
The meetings—designed to give each team's executives an opportunity to speak with not only each other, but some of the top free agents and their representation—have become a rumor bonanza over the last couple of seasons. The week leading up to the annual meetings is normally all about "laying the groundwork."
The Philadelphia Phillies are expected to be among the most active teams over the next couple weeks. They have a huge gap to fill in center field, and until they fill it, you can't count them 100 percent out on any given player.
They have the money. They have the need.
And that's only the biggest hole in this Phillies roster. They'll also be in the market for a third baseman and a setup man, as well as on other, smaller fronts, like the corner outfield market.
With the Winter Meetings quickly rounding into focus, you could call this the "calm before the storm," but if the rumor mill never takes on a single attribute, it's calm. Let this slide show serve as a tool of either debunking or confirming the hottest rumors coming out of Philly.
Each player will either be labeled fact (meaning the Phillies have a legitimate interest and an opportunity to acquire said player in a reasonable fashion) or fiction (bringing said player to town is outside the realm of possibility).

Deezer Brings its Music Streaming to Smart TVs
The battle to become the dominant music-streaming service is moving into the living room. France-based Deezer has announced deals with electronics manufacturers Samsung, LG and Toshiba to provide access to its services through smart TV sets. It is already available through some hi-fi and in-car entertainment systems, as well as most smartphones, tablets and PCs.
Music Week explains what the latest deals will mean.
Deezer subscribers will have instant access to all their playlists, tracks and Deezer recommendations via their smart TV.
Non-subscribers can still use Deezer's discovery mode, which offers unlimited access to its thousands of artist-based and themed radio channels, and allows browsing to the Deezer library and listening to 30-second clips of any of its 20 million tracks…
Deezer will be available on all Samsung smart TV models produced from 2011 (Europe only), and on all LG smart TV models produced from 2011 (available worldwide). It will also be available on all post-2011 Toshiba smart TV models (Europe and MEA/Asia, Pacific) and on smart all smart TV models produced from 2013 (worldwide).
The company now claims to have over three million paying subscribers each listening to an average of 60 hours of music a month. It is now available in more than 180 countries, but not yet the U.S. In October it received $130 million in C Round funding from Access Industries, the U.S. company owned by Len Blavatnik and which acquired Warner Music Group in 2011.

A two-vehicle crash Thursday on an entrance ramp to Interstate 80 left two children with moderate and major injuries during a dangerous two-week period of incidents on Pocono roadways.
The incident occurred around 7:30 p.m. on I-80 West exit 308 ramp in East Stroudsburg, state police in Swiftwater said. Destiny Behling, 13, of Gilbert, sustained the most severe injuries, while other passengers Jerimiah Behling, 11, and Louis Zeruth, 52, also of Gilbert, suffered moderate injuries when a vehicle hit their car from behind.
The passengers were in a 1999 Ford Escort that was stopped, attempting to enter I-80. A 2001 Honda Civic crashed into the back of the Escort.
Escort driver Gail M. Zeruth, 53, of Gilbert, was not hurt in the crash that injured three of her four passengers. Passenger Kristina G. Ficke, 34, of Milwaukee, was also unharmed.
Civic driver Mitchell J. Hauser, 17, of Long Pond, and 2-year-old passenger Sophia Hauser also sustained no injuries in the crash, while second passenger, 18-year-old Micaela Machado, of Long Pond, suffered minor injuries.
Police did not specify the condition of passengers injured in the crash. The two children were not wearing seatbelts.

This is a group of 4 lovely sterling silver teaspoons in the flowing, scrolling Passaic pattern by the Unger Brothers, circa 1900. Each spoon is 5 7/8" in length and 1 1/8" wide.

Romeo and Juliet
by William Shakespeare
Romeo and Juliet Act 3, Scene 2 Summary
- Juliet, who hasn't heard about the whole murder/ revenge killing thing, is watching the clock for nightfall, when Romeo is supposed to sneak into her room.
- When the Nurse enters, Juliet realizes right away that something has gone wrong.
- First, Juliet thinks Romeo has been killed. Nope: her husband has just murdered her cousin.
- Juliet's first reaction is to curse Romeo, and the Nurse joins in—but you know that isn't going to go over well, and it doesn't.
- Juliet turns on the Nurse and tells her she can't criticize her husband. If he hadn't killed Tybalt, then Tybalt would have killed Romeo. Forced to choose between the cousin she has loved all her life and her new husband, she chooses Romeo.
- Teenagers, right?
- Just as she's decided to forgive Romeo, she remembers that he's been banished and starts flipping out.
- Her Nurse promises to find him so they can at last say goodbye.

UK manufacturing slumps at fastest rate in three years
The UK's manufacturing sector shrank at the fastest pace seen in 38 months in July, in a blow for the economy which is already batting a double-dip recession.
The Markit/CIPS Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) dipped to a reading of 45.4 in July - where a figure below 50 indicates a contraction - compared to a revised reading of 48.4 in June.
The slump was attributed to a sharp contraction in output and new orders in July, as companies faced weaker demand from domestic and export clients.
Operating conditions have deteriorated in each of the past three months, the index showed, while the level of new export business fell at the fastest pace since February 2009.
Markit said the eurozone remained the principal drag on new export orders, although there were now reports of a decline in new business from Asia.
Rob Dobson, senior economist at Markit and author of the PMI report, said manufacturing as a sector was a "major drag" on the overall economy, as it hit "turbulent waters" in July, with companies scaling back output to the greatest extent since March 2009.
"The July PMI survey suggests that the domestic market shows no real signs of renewed life, while hopes of exports charting the course to calmer currents were hit by our main trading partner, the eurozone, still being embroiled in its long-running political and debt crises," he said.
"Brighter news may have been offered by a slight gain in employment and a further easing in input prices, but these will provide only short-term benefit if market conditions fail to improve substantially.
The weak data comes a week after it was announced the UK's economy had shrunk by 0.7 per cent in second quarter of 2012, considerably more than the 0.2 per cent contraction that had been forecast by economists.
Meanwhile eurozone PMI manufacturing has hit a 37-month low, falling to 44 in July, down from 45.1 in June, and below the flash estimate of 44.1.
Markit said was a result of an accelerated contraction in output, new orders and employment in July.
The PMI manufacturing in the eurozone has now signalled a contraction for 12 consecutive months.
Ireland was the only country to busk the trend with its manufacturing hitting a 15-month high of 53.9, while every other member of the 17-state currency block recorded a contraction.
Germany, the eurozone's largest economy hit a 37-month low of 43, while France, the second largest economy in the bloc, hit a 38-month low of 43.4.

Jekel Loves Hyde
by Beth Fantaskey
This second novel from (relatively) local author Beth Fantaskey takes the reader on a scientific and literary journey into the lives of two teens – Jill Jekel and Tristen Hyde – whose meeting is less than coincidental. Jill Jekel, a shy and brilliant chemistry student, and Tristen Hyde, a too-cool-for-school British exchange student and equally brilliant chemist, are an unlikely pair. But they are drawn to each other through the shared grief of each having lost a parent to brutal murder. Of course as their relationship develops, they discover how un-coincidental everything about this year is… and that they share a literary fate – Robert Louis Stevenson's The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde was based on their ancestors. Hyde and Jekyll couldn't coexist… so is it possible now that they can love one another?
After reading Jessica's Guide to Dating on the Dark Side, I was totally geeked for what Beth Fantaskey would create for her readers next. Jekel Loves Hyde offers its audience many of the same elements as its precursor without being formulaic. The characters and setting are similar (write what you know, right?), but their stories are different. Still, I didn't quite get into this book like I did Jessica's Guide. I'm not sure why; I'm usually a sucker for characters and her characters are pretty good. I know that Fantaskey is a completely capable author and she can surpass her debut novel. I just don't think this one was it.
Besides, this is the best modern version of Jekyll and Hyde I've ever seen: http://www.shmoop.com/news/2010/10/05/jekyll-hyde-facebook/ Just couldn't compete!
Additionally… happy birthday, Grandma!!!

Nollywood actress, Shan George, has relocated to her state, Cross River. But contrary to reports, she says she has not gone in search of greener or saner pastures.
According to the news making the rounds online, Shan George is said to have relocated because Calabar is more peaceful than Lagos. She was quoted as saying, "Calabar is heaven on earth. My hilltop Calabar home is as peaceful as a baby's sigh."
However, in a telephone exchange – spiced with hiccups due to erratic network – between the actress and our correspondent, Shan George says she is in a remote part of Cross River to nurse her mother who is bedridden.
Although Shan George did not disclose the nature of the illness, she says, "My beloved aged mother has been sick since March 2012. She's been bedridden with a terminal illness. As an only child, it falls on me to stay with her till the end, so to make it less burdensome; I had to relocate to Calabar to take care of her. So for now, I just want to be with my mum and look after her. Whatever happens after that is in God's hands."
Shan George adds that she does not know how long or short her stay in Calabar would last, but that she is channelling all her strength towards her mother's care while everything other thing would be on hold, "for God to handle".
When the news of Shan George's temporary exit from Lagos broke online, there were several comments. Some of these include insinuations that she may be warming up to take a political appointment like some popular artistes, including Richard Mofe-Damijo, who is currently the commissioner for Culture and Tourism in Delta State.
Shan George only laughed at the insinuations of a political appointment. She says politics is not one of her aspirations.
"I won't make a good politician, I'm too brutally honest," Shan George adds.

Sexton, McMillan Recalled from Syracuse; Palmieri Reassigned
Saturday, 11.20.2010 / 12:18 PM PT / News
Sexton, 23 (4/29/87), has appeared in seven games with Anaheim this season, going scoreless with two penalty minutes (PIM) while averaging 11:28 TOI. He was sidelined for seven games from Oct. 26-Nov. 9 with a broken nose, which was surgically repaired on Oct. 28. Assigned to Syracuse on Nov. 10, Sexton collected 2-3=5 points with two PIM in four AHL contests prior to his recall.
McMillan, 20 (3/22/90), scored 4-5=6 points with 10 PIM in 16 games for Syracuse this year. Among team leaders, McMillan ranked tied for first in appearances and second in shots on goal (35). Selected by Anaheim in the third round (85th overall) of the 2008 NHL Entry Draft, McMillan played four Western Hockey League (WHL) seasons with Kelowna from 2006-10, collecting 56-113=169 points with 221 PIM in 251 games. He also represented Canada at the 2010 IIHF World Junior Championship in Saskatchewan, earning 4-4=8 points in six games. McMillan has yet to make his NHL debut.
Palmieri, 19 (2/1/91), collected 1-0=1 point and averaged 8:41 TOI in 10 games with the Ducks this season. Recalled from Syracuse on Nov. 3, Palmieri scored his first goal in his NHL debut that night against Tampa Bay's Dan Ellis. At 19 years, nine months, and two days, he was the fifth-youngest player to appear in a Ducks uniform. Palmieri began the season in Syracuse, earning 7-2=9 points with 11 PIM in nine games. At the time of his recall, he was tied for the league lead in goal scoring and was tied for the team lead in points. Palmieri recorded a four-game goal streak (6-1=7) from Oct. 23-30, tied for the second-longest in the AHL this season. He was also named the AHL Player of the Week for the period ending Oct. 31 after scoring 5-1=6 points in three games.

McIntosh, I. (2001) Harmonic tori and generalised Jacobi varieties. Communications in Analysis and Geometry, 9 (2). pp. 423-449. ISSN 1019-8385Full text not available from this repository.
This article shows that every non-isotropic harmonic 2-torus in complex projective space factors through a generalised Jacobi variety related to the spectral curve. Each map is composed of a homomorphism into the variety and a rational map off it. The same ideas allow one to construct (pluri)-harmonic maps of finite type from Euclidean space into Grassmannians and the projective unitary groups. Further, some of these maps will be purely algebraic. For maps into complex projective space the algebraic maps of the plane are always doubly periodic i.e. they yield 2-tori. The classification of all these algebraic maps remains open.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2016
Origins Available: Dutch, Irish
Irish names tend to vary widely in their spelling and overall form. The original Gaelic form of the name Hagen is O hAgain, which was earlier rendered as O hOgain. Traditionally, the name means young.
The surname Hagen was first found in County Tyrone (Irish:Tír Eoghain), the ancient territory of the O'Neills, now in the Province of Ulster, central Northern Ireland, where they held a family seat from ancient times.
Pronunciation, rather than spelling, guided scribes and church officials when recording names during the Middle Ages. This practice often resulted in one person's name being recorded under several different spellings. Numerous spelling variations of the surname Hagen are preserved in these old documents. The various spellings of the name that were found include Hagan, Hegan, Hagen, O'Hagan and others.
This web page shows only a small excerpt of our Hagen research. Another 199 words (14 lines of text) covering the years 1612 and 1722 are included under the topic Early Hagen History in all our PDF Extended History products and printed products wherever possible.
More information is included under the topic Early Hagen Notables in all our PDF Extended History products and printed products wherever possible.
During the 19th century thousands of impoverished Irish families made the long journey to British North America and the United States. These people were leaving a land that had become beset with poverty, lack of opportunity, and hunger. In North America, they hoped to find land, work, and political and religious freedoms. Although the majority of the immigrants that survived the long sea passage did make these discoveries, it was not without much perseverance and hard work: by the mid-19th century land suitable for agriculture was short supply, especially in British North America, in the east; the work available was generally low paying and physically taxing construction or factory work; and the English stereotypes concerning the Irish, although less frequent and vehement, were, nevertheless, present in the land of freedom, liberty, and equality for all men. The largest influx of Irish settlers occurred with Great Potato Famine during the late 1840s. Research into passenger and immigration lists has brought forth evidence of the early members of the Hagen family in North America:
Hagen Settlers in United States in the 18th Century
Hagen Settlers in United States in the 19th Century
Hagen Settlers in Canada in the 19th Century

Safety concerns in Cal Anderson Park are on the rise as of recent, in light of a gunfire-related arrest there earlier this month, a string of muggings, and Capitol Hill's Relay For Life expressing safety concerns in the area this past Saturday.
On August 1, the Seattle Police Department's East Precinct reported that a 17-year-old robber near Cal Anderson Park pulled a gun and fired a gunshot, leaving one victim with a grazing gunshot wound to his head, in addition to a string of muggings at the park in the month of August. According to Capitol Hill Community Council member Zachary Pullin, crime on Capitol Hill is steadily on the rise this time of year.
"Warmer weather always invites more crime on Capitol Hill," Pullin said. "Technically, Capitol Hill crimes have increased, [and] most crimes on Capitol Hill occur in the late evenings. According to data, in the last two years, August 2014 looks to be the worst month for robbery."
Local Relay For Life Specialist Curtis Thomas resides in the Seattle area and says that he was well aware of the park's reputation apart from scheduling the event. The event, which was held on August 23, is traditionally an overnight event, but was scheduled during the daytime due to safety concerns.
"As someone who's on the Hill often, I'd say it's pretty common knowledge that [Cal Anderson Park] is not the best place to be at night," Thomas said.
Such concerns have made it increasingly difficult for events like Relay For Life to be granted overnight permits in Cal Anderson Park.
"Typically participants will walk around track and raise funds to fight against cancer, and this lasts overnight, to convey the message that 'cancer never sleeps,'" Thomas said. "For this event, hosting it overnight wasn't a viable option given the crime that occurs in that area, and we want our participants to be safe. In Greenlake, there was a full 24-hour Relay For Life because we were able to get permits to be there."
According to Thomas, the event was not only unable to attain an overnight permit, but also was cut shorter than its planned duration due to disruption. Instead of its scheduled conclusion at 10 p.m., the event wrapped up at 9 p.m. Carter hopes that despite this year's outcome, Relay For Life will continue to be hosted in Cal Anderson Park.
"Towards sunset during the wrap-up ceremony, we had some people outside the event causing a disruption," Thomas said. "We ended things a little bit early, because participants were uncomfortable. At one point the police were called because there were some aggressive outbursts towards the end from the people who were in the park and not participating in the relay."
Pullin believes that these trends, including the gunfire and Relay For Life, call for community response and dialogue.
"This implores us to consider better late-night community and beat policing, campaigns with police, community organizations, bars, and restaurants that serve people late into the night to communicate safety tips for being out at night, and more programs and services for folks committing crimes such as basic needs resources, affordable housing, job training and placement, mental health services, etc.," Pullin said.
He believes that recent campaigns like "Neighborhood Watch," "See Something, Say Something," and "No One Walks Alone," that ask neighbors to use preconceived notions of criminals to identify them by "what they wear, the feelings they get in their stomach, and 'suspicion.'" are not constructive. These campaigns, like Capitol Hill's No One Walks Alone, which aims to "reiterate the importance of being vigilant while walking home in Capitol Hill," are a part of a nation-wide effort to reduce crime and educate the public.
"These campaigns' efforts seem to target brown and black folks, homeless people, and youth," Pullin said. "Our work is in fostering conversations that include police and also community organizations in cultural competency and advocacy for services that lift people out of a place where turning to petty crime and robbery seems the best choice. Instead of watching our neighbors, we must see them. Engage with people and become connected to our community.
He continues that increasing police patrolling is more of a last resort response, and that community awareness and action is where improvement will begin.
"Response to these concerns has been centered on more police, and I would argue that our efforts are best served by more community policing – watching the beat, meeting neighbors and business owners, and more engaged involvement from neighbors and the community," Pullin said.
Pullin noted that improvements in safety in Cal Anderson, Capitol Hill, and beyond, would occur when communities are empowered, and connected.
"For most people, Capitol Hill is perceived to be safe; for victims of crime, Capitol Hill is not perceived to be safe," Pullin said.
"This illustrates a gulf between perception and reality, and presents increased need for neighbor-to-neighbor connection and action. Empowering the community to believe that neighbors are some of the best allies in reducing crime is paramount in community building. I believe when we are connected and nurture the community then crime will decrease."
According to Kimberly Dinsdale, Media Relations Manager for the American Cancer Society:
"We have recently reviewed our signature event, seeking feedback from volunteers across the nation in order to make Relay For Life more relevant to today's volunteers and participants. The Capitol Hill event was not overnight as part of this new structure. Additionally, our venue, Cal Anderson Park closes at 11:30 PM making it impossible to host an overnight event at that location. Risk management concerns didn't really play into our decision making process."

Brandman University's Irvine campus raises $3,000 for a veteran scholarship fund
Brandman University employees made the most of having to spend Veterans Day at work, and their charitable giving will assist veteran service members in their pursuit of a college education. Employees donated baked goods and raised $3,000 for the Bryan A. Fazio Scholarship Fund on Nov. 11 at the Brandman University Irvine campus.
Navy veteran Bryan Fazio is a recent Brandman graduate who, when given a terminal diagnosis of Stage 2 Hodgkin's lymphoma that required two bone marrow transplants, elected to accelerate completion of his master's degree in business administration. Fazio made national news when he received his MBA in the summer. Brandman officials were so touched by his story of perseverance that they decided to establish a scholarship in Fazio's honor and award it each fall to a veteran student at Brandman who has a medical condition or disability. Fazio has since entered remission and is working in Orange County.
Employees and students purchased $498 of baked goods and donated another $950 for a total of $1,448. The university matched those contributions and added money, pushing the total raised to $3,000. Along with $5,000 previously committed to the Bryan A. Fazio Scholarship Fund, there is now a total of $8,000 for future donation.
"We are very proud of our staff and students that they decided to give back on a very special day," said Gray Brahm, chancellor of Brandman University.
"This shows Brandman's commitment to community service and its military student population."
