"If you build it, they will stay."
So prophesied Erie County Legislature Chairwoman Betty Jean Grant, D-Buffalo, Thursday evening of the Buffalo Bills' long-term future in the Queen City during a community forum at Erie Community College's downtown campus designed to spark enthusiasm for a proposed massive waterfront project that would include a 72,000-seat domed stadium.
Grant, along with Legislator Timothy R. Hogues, D-Buffalo, representatives from the Strong Museum of Play in Rochester and principal partners from the Greater Buffalo Sports and Entertainment Complex, issued a public "call to action" to gather momentum for the $1.4 billion project aimed at attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors to the outer harbor.
"It brings downtown and the central business district down to the waterfront," said George F. Hasiotis, a principal in the proposed project with Nicholas J. Stracick.
The group is looking to nail down an option on the outer harbor land to get the wheels in motion for not only the year-round stadium but other projects there, such as a collateral North American Museum of Sports run by the Strong museum.
With the land option, the group would be able to approach the National Football League with the proposal and then have a set amount of time to work "with a vengeance to build this project within the next five to seven years," Hasiotis said.
"We're making progress with elected officials in Western New York," he added. "The governor has to realize this is the project he's been talking about. There's nothing on his list of potential projects that compares to something like this."
The smattering of a couple of dozen area residents – ranging from casually dressed urban dwellers to businessmen in suits – who found their way to the forum liked what they saw of the ideas and enthusiasm.
"This is an amazing, bold vision that I haven't seen in 44 years in Buffalo," said one resident, who suggested the group consider proceeding in phases to make the massive pie-in-the-sky dream come true one piece at a time.
Added another, who said he left Buffalo in 1984 and spent his last 28 years in New York City: "When I left, Buffalo was a city that was flat on its back. When I came back last year, I saw a city that was up on one knee, trying to get up."
It's a project that already has the interest of G. Rollie Adams, the Strong museum's chief executive officer, and Scott G. Eberle, a Buffalo resident who is vice president of the museum.
"We will work just as hard to anchor this site," said Eberle of the proposed Strong sports museum, which Strong officials believe will attract 600,000 or more visitors annually, more than the Bills and 26 other NFL teams.
Adams said the planned sports museum will celebrate not just big-time athletes but also "all of us." Adams envisions the museum having what he called a collaborative working relationship with the baseball, football and basketball halls of fame to bring in sports-themed exhibits and artifacts.
Other dignitaries at Thursday's forum included Bernard Tolbert, senior vice president for security for the National Basketball Association and former special-agent-in-charge of the Buffalo office of the FBI, and Assemblyman David DiPietro, R-East Aurora, who endorsed the proposal.
"To be blunt, I think this is a great project. The first thing I told Nick [Stracick} to do is to keep the politicians out of it," said DiPietro. "If we want to keep the Buffalo Bills here, we have to get everybody on board and move forward."

Facing a quarterback injury with the football at midfield just before halftime, Paul Hamilton sent his backup into East Tennessee State's 1997 game against formidable Georgia Southern. He also sent vanilla advice: Running plays.
"I thought it was best to try and set up a field goal try," Hamilton recalled.
Jamey Chadwell lobbied for more.
"Coach," he said, "let me have a shot at it."
Chadwell quickly completed a pass for a first down. Then he threw for a touchdown.
"I knew right then he was a lot smarter than I was," Hamilton said.
Chadwell, 36, is still overachieving. Charleston Southern, in his first season as head coach, is 4-0 for the second time in program history. The Buccaneers own road wins over The Citadel, Campbell and Norfolk State.
Hamilton saw it coming.
"I really felt like Jamey would go in there and have a chance to win right off the bat," Hamilton said. "The reason I felt that way is he's got a lot of upside in everything he does on and off the field."
Hamilton knows football, and leadership. He grew up on James Island and was an all-state quarterback at Fort Johnson High School. He is in his seventh season as head coach at Division II Brevard College after serving in the same role at ETSU and Elon.
A 'positive guy'
Before that, Hamilton was an assistant coach at Air Force from 1990-1996.
"Those Air Force players were special in a lot of ways," Hamilton said. "And Jamey reminded me of an Academy guy."
Upon graduation, Chadwell joined Hamilton's ETSU staff as an assistant coach. He quickly distinguished himself.
"You could tell when he was a player that football was very important to Jamey, not just as a player but the Xs and Os," Hamilton said. "He wanted to know not just what we were running, but why we were running it. He saw the big picture early on."
Chadwell went on to serve on Jay Mills' Charleston Southern staff for five seasons, then was the head coach at North Greenville for three years and Delta State last season.
He is a relentless recruiter, Hamilton said. That's good, because making the most of a hot start can help enhance the perception of Charleston Southern football (the Bucs were picked fourth among the league's six teams in the 2013 Big South Conference preseason poll).
"From the first time I got here, all we tried to do was work on the chemistry — playing for each other and being positive," Chadwell said. "I felt like there was just a negative mentality, and I'm more of a positive guy."
On to App State
Next up: Saturday in Boone against Appalachian State, upgrading from the FCS level to FBS.
Bucs quarterback Malcolm Dixon has been steady. Defensive end Dylan Black earned national honors for his nine-tackle performance in the 20-12 victory at Norfolk State. Running back Ben Robinson was just named Big South freshman of the week.
"I'm not sure how good we are now," Chadwell said, "but we have guys who believe in each other, who are looking for positives coming from practice every day. They believe in each other and want to fight for each other."
By the way, ETSU lost that 1997 game to Georgia Southern. But it was close, 38-30. Chadwell did his part and walked away with a little more confidence.
"Coach Hamilton trusted me," Chadwell said. "I'll be forever grateful to Paul, not only for playing for him but for him giving me my start in coaching and getting me on the right path. He cared about you as a person, not just a football player."

Canada's Ty Tessmann had an amazing Easter weekend at the Neo '14 in the UK, leading almost the entire 45-minute A Final to win the main event, plus winning not just the electric buggy race but the Dash for Cash race as well! !
Held every year at Harper Adams University and inviting the world's fastest 1/8th buggy racers, the Neo race is the biggest non-championship off-road race in Europe. Over the years, top racers from all across Europe, the US and even Asia have made the trip to see what all the fuss is about. In the process, the epic racing and parade of the fastest names in racing have made the Neo a 'must attend' race for drivers around the world!
For 2014, a reduced 'Team Tessmann' (usually Ty and both his parents but this time just dad Gord) made the trek from Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada, to Harper Adams University northwest of Birmingham, where a temporary, pupose-built track is built from scratch under a protective roof. It is this battleground that sets the stage for the top racing action at the first major European race of the year for 1/8th off-road fans!
This was Ty's third trip to 'the Neo', and would prove to be a very special weekend indeed!
The practice rounds and the first three runs of qualifying saw Ty and his father tuning in the D812 car (as well as Ty's D812 with Tekno conversion in Electric) to the track and conditions - Easter weekend started off dry and sunny but over the 4 days of the weekend the weather would turn hazy and damp, so racers and engine tuners were kept busy with the changing ambient conditions.
On Day 2 after 3 rounds of qualifying that saw different drivers and cars taking the top spot, Team Tessmann started cranking up the pressure, starting with the 'Dash4Ca$h' race, a single 10-minute race with a fat cash prize! Ty waited for the crashes to sort themselves out and from second place on the track homed in on the leader, who was powerless to stop the young Canadian from running off into the distance. Ty then took his first victory of the Neo weekend!
Watch the Dash4Ca$h race right here!
In Qualifying round 4, Ty started to assert his authority on the track, setting TQ times in both nitro and electric buggy classes:
Ty also set the TQ time in round 5 of nitro qualifying:
Ty's fast times in 2 of the 6 rounds of qualifying would enable him to start in 3rd place for the Final, ahead of several National, European and World Champions.
Before the Nitro Finals could begin, the Electric Finals were run, and Ty dispatched all comers with ease. Ty started from pole and although he was threatened and even passed for the lead after a spill, Ty was able to regain the top spot by the end.
Watch Ty rule the Electric 1/8th Buggy roost with his HB D812 using the Tekno conversion:
After taking two wins in the two races that had run so far, what else was there to do but win the whole thing? Although complete dominance was out of his grasp because he didn't TQ the main nitro class, it would be a brave person to bet against Team Tessmann in the 45-minute A Final, where Ty and his D812 were looking supreme.
Here's the start of the 45-minute A Final!
The remainder of the A Final is right here:
Starting from 3rd on the grid, Ty took an early lead while the other racers squabbled for 2nd place behind him. Not wanting to give Ty an easy win, European Champ David Ronnefalk and World Champ Cody King chased him down, with only Cody succeeding in making a solid pass, having the lead only until a mistake of his own allowed Ty past into the front of the field - a position he would hold until the end of the 45 minutes!
Calling this a 'strong weekend' for Ty is a bit like saying Mercedes has an adequate Formula 1 2014 team and car...this was an amazing display for someone at an event they've never been to before, over 4000 miles (6800km) from home!
Ty has definitely solidified his name at the top of the rankings of 1/8th buggy racers around the world, and 2014 is certainly looking like his year so far!

COLUMBUS - One of professional wrestling's best wrestlers used to say "To be the man, you got to beat the man."
The same can apply to high school wrestling as well.
Nelsonville-York's Zach Mays was the man. Fostoria's Tony Reynolds beat him.
Mays was the state champion of the Division III 170-pound weight class a year ago, where Reynolds finished sixth. In their championship semifinal, Mays struck first, but Reynolds controlled the rest of the way, scoring an 8-2 victory to move to today's state championship match, highlighting the local efforts in the Division III state tournament.
Reynolds said his philosophy was simple.
"I just got to wrestle my hardest every match," he said. "Because as a senior, I know that if I don't wrestle my hardest, I don't want to leave the state tournament like 'What if I would've done this and maybe this would happen.' So I just leave it all out there on the mat and it does what it does,"
And what it did was land Reynolds in today's championship match against Travis Linton of Rootstown.
Despite Mays' credentials, Reynolds and his coach Nick Davis were confident heading into the semifinal, since they were well familiar with Mays' signature move.
"Mays couldn't get that kip. Some people call it a barrel roll, some people call it a short fireman's, we call it a kip. He couldn't get it," Davis said. "That's one of my favorite moves and I've been hitting it on Tony for four years. He knows how to stop it. He can stop mine pretty good. I think if he can stop mine he can stop anybody's. He was able to stop that. I think that really took Mays out of his game when he couldn't take him down."
"He didn't really have any leg defense, which was pretty good for my behalf," Reynolds said. "I feel like my conditioning was a lot better than his because come third period, I knew that he was mentally broken, that there was no way he was going to come back."
Earlier in the day, Reynolds won a wild quarterfinal against Dom Johns of Coshocton 16-11. Reynolds led 9-6 after the first period and 13-10 after two.
"Starting off I wasn't as concentrated as I should've been," Reynolds admitted. "It was more of a wild match. But then, once I started slowing down, thinking about my moves and concentrating, that's when I gained control of the match. He was a lot more tired than I was, and once he got tired, he got kind of sloppy and that's when I took over the match and controlled it from there on out."
Two others remain alive in the Division III consolation bracket that could take them as high as third place. Buckeye Central's Shawn Kissell picked up a pair of victories Friday. First, Kissell rallied from being down to Jacob Hanzel of Akron Manchester 4-0 in the third period, to score a pin and move on.
"I was down four and I didn't want this to end," he said. "I got him on his back, and wasn't going to let him go."
In the night session, Kissell dominated Connor Careless of Norwalk St. Paul for an 8-0 decision. Kissell is just the second wrestler from Buckeye Central to place at the state meet.
"It's awesome. You can't really put it in words," he said. "Now I'm going for as high as I can, hopefully get third."
Alex Kenner at 152-pounds is the lone Upper Sandusky Ram remaining out of the six that made the trip to Columbus.
Kenner began his day in the championship quarterfinals, but dropped a 16-6 decision to Bluffton's Zach Wilson. Kenner responded with a 10-1 win over Seth Knoll of Riverdale, and a second round pin of Seth King of Gates Mills Hawken to advance to the consolation semifinals.
"I lost my first match today so I figured I'd come back with a win, push my pace and wrestle my match," he said. "I had to forget about that match and go to the next one."
After teammates Thurston Dyer (106) and Carson Mengerink (113) lost consolation matches Friday morning, Kenner said he was inspired to carry the flag for his team.
"We lost our two lightweights early. It just gave me a boost to keep going and win it for them," he said.
Dyer lost a 1-0 decision to Jake Adkins of Johnstown Northridge while Mengerink lost 5-1 to Tyler Sarreshteh of Liberty-Benton.
Mengerink, only a junior, is already eager to make another run at state next year.
"After not making it the last couple years, it was definitely a pushing point for me to say, you finally made it, and you got to work and give it everything you got," he said. "Last match, I don't know, I didn't feel good, not trying to make excuses. I don't think I was ready, I don't think I went out ready and that was definitely one of my problems. It's more fuel to give me that fire next year.
"It definitely going to drive me to get back down here and get on the podium. I'm going to be a senior and I don't want to fall short again."
Carey's Brayden Leist had an up-and-down day. However, it did land him a spot on the podium.
Leist dropped a championship quarterfinal to Dylan Marthey of Massillon Tuslaw 6-3, where one five-point move scored by Marthey proved to be the difference. Leist responded by scoring an 11-7 win over Kenny Price of Archbold to lock up a spot on the podium.
Leist was down 4-1 against Price, but rallied for the win.
"I was just going out there to wrestle, got off balance and got put down. I just bounced back and kept my level head," he said.
Leist added that it wasn't hard to put his first loss out of his mind.
"This is state. Obviously you now everyone's good so you just got to wrestle through it," he said. "It wasn't that hard to come back. Like I said, everyone's good so you can't get down on yourself."
Leist's day ended with a 3-1 loss to Lorain Clearview's Matt Hollingsworth, which puts him in today's seventh-place match.
Mohawk's Grant Price didn't have the success he was hoping for on the second day of his third state tournament. In the morning's championship quarterfinals, Price lost to Mays in a third round pin. He went to the consolation bracket where he fell to Jimmy Spieth of Liberty Center 10-5.
"He came out , won that first match (on Thursday)," Mohawk coach Bud Cook said. "It's tough when you lose and you bounce down and you got to try to refocus. I thought he was there and again, it's just all part of it I guess."
Cook was emotional speaking of how much a three-time state qualifier in Price has meant to the Mohawk program.
"Third time coming down, each year you seem to build on expectations," he said. "It hurts when they fall a little short. That one there is going to sting everyone there for a while, but in time I think everyone will move forward.
"Of all the ones I can remember, he's the third one (to make state three times). He put together quite a career. Any time you make this trip its saying something about the hard work and determination that individual has."
The consolation round resumes today at 10 a.m. with the championship round starting at 5:45 p.m.

on February 25, 2013 - 11:48 AM
Two ultimate acts of love have emerged from Friday's fire in Buffalo's Cold Spring neighborhood that now has claimed its second life.
Three-year-old Malachi Norman died over the weekend from injuries suffered in the Timon Street house fire that also killed his mother, 23-year-old Lequeisha Watkins, officials confirmed Monday.
Watkins had escaped from the burning home with her fiance and their 2-year-old son, but she apparently went back inside the burning home when she realized their older boy, Malachi, still was trapped there.
That was the first act of love, a mother risking – and losing – her own life to save her son's.
The second came from the boy's father, Berry L. Norman, believed to be 25.
Malachi Norman was declared brain-dead at 5:55 p.m. Saturday, but he was kept alive so his organs could be taken and given to other children, officials said.
"His father didn't want him to die in vain," Buffalo Fire Commissioner Garnell W. Whitfield Jr. said Monday. "He wanted other children to have an opportunity to live."
Berry Norman, while grieving for both his fiancee and older son, was so intent on having the boy's organs passed on to others that he actually participated in the process by wheeling him to the operating-room door, officials said.
Five organs were taken from the little boy Sunday, authorities added.
"I'm just blown away by the capacity of this young man to do that, especially at his age," Whitfield said of the young father. "To have the compassion for others to do that."
Firefighters had pulled Malachi and his mother, Watkins, from a rear bedroom in their first-floor apartment at 174 Timon early Friday morning. Watkins died that afternoon, while Malachi was listed in extremely critical condition in Women & Children's Hospital that day.
As word spread Monday about the young boy's death, neighbors also marveled at the twin acts of love, from a mother racing back into her burning home and a father finding a way to keep his dying son's memory alive.
Kevin Williams, 50, who lives around the corner and often mentored the young family, gasped and let out a quick shriek after hearing about Malachi's death.
Then he talked about the young parents.
"That's the ultimate price, and the ultimate love, to lay down your life to save another human being," he said of Watkins, before turning to Berry Norman's act. "What he did, that's a miracle in and of itself, that he had the presence of mind to know that if his child's life had been lost, at least it wouldn't be in vain."
Joe Hyla, who owns the house next door at 170 Timon, on Monday returned to the scene, east of Jefferson Avenue, between Dodge and Best streets.
With a strong smell of smoke still in the air, he looked up at what remains of the three houses, at 170, 174 and 176 Timon. The house in the middle has been reduced to charred rubble, with just a tiny piece of one wall still standing. The other two are burned-out shells, at least on the top floors, that also are expected to be demolished.
"The stuff I lost doesn't really matter," Hyla said. "We lost lives, and they were good neighbors."
Hyla then learned about the young father's decision to save his son's organs.
"They were a close family," Hyla said. "He wanted to keep the memories of his child alive, giving his organs to someone else. That's very loving."
The double loss also hit hard for Buffalo firefighters who had rescued two people, only to see them both ultimately die.
"We do a lot of this kind of work, not just in fires, but also EMS calls," Whitfield pointed out. "A lot of times we can't save people. We're just human. Often we can't resuscitate them, but we give it our best shot."
Consolation may be hard to find, but the fire commissioner implied that at least the family knows that firefighters went into a burning home to give two people a chance to be saved.
"We helped the family in the loss of their loved ones," he said. "We did everything we could do. That's a comfort to them.
"At the end of the day, that's all we can do."

As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
Quadruple Helices Appear To Have Role...
LC-MS Gains Favor Due To the...
Expanding Use of NGS Has Largely...
Immunotherapeutics firm Coronado Biosciences sealed a collaboration agreement with Dr. Falk Pharma and OvaMed, relating to the development and commercialization of TSO (Trichuris suis ova; CNDO-201) for the treatment of Crohn disease. The porcine whipworm eggs are manufactured by OvaMed. Under terms of the latest agreement deal Coronado has licensed the orally administered immunomodulator from OvaMed for development in North America, South America, and Japan. Dr. Falk's license from OvaMed covers gastroenterology applications of the candidate in Europe.
As part of the collaboration Dr. Falk has granted Coronado exclusive rights and licenses to certain preclinical and clinical data from studies of TSO in Crohn disease, including an ongoing Phase II study, for use by the latter in its designated territories. In return, Dr. Falk gets exclusive rights and licenses to data from Coronado's clinical trials of TSO in Crohn disease for use in Europe. Coronado will pay Dr. Falk €500 million once it has received specified data, and a royalty of 1% of net sales of TSO.
The two firms will each be responsible for carrying out clinical trials on half the total number of patients needed to achieve regulatory clarance of TSO for the Crohn disease indication in the U.S. and Europe. Certain preclinical development costs will also be shared.
In January 2011 Coronado acquired assets from Asphelia Pharmaceuticals relating to CNDO-201, as a potential immunotherapy for the treatment of Crohn disease, ulcerative colitis, multiple sclerosis, and other autoimmune disorders. The assets include exclusive rights to CNDO-201 in North America, South America, and Japan, under a sublicense agreement with OvaMed.
The use of helminths as a treatment for autoimmune disease is based on the Hygiene Hypothesis, which suggests that the immune systems of populations living in the relatively sterile, parasite-free environments of developed and temperate countries may not develop normally. Indeed, Coronado points out, the incidence of most autoimmune diseases is highest in the developed world and in temperate climates, and particularly among people of the highest socioeconomic statuses and levels of domestic hygiene in childhood. Conversely, the incidence of, for example, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), is rare in less developed countries and among manual workers exposed to dirt and physical exercise.
These epidemiological findings have led to the notion the elimination of intestinal helminths in the industrialized world has basically led to inactivation of a natural T-regulatory-cell mechanism that would naturally act to prevent excessive T-cell activation. This inactivation occurs in IBD and other immune-mediated diseases such as multiple sclerosis, type-1 diabetes, asthma, and allergies.
Experimental findings have indicated that a number of helminths induce Th2-type cytokine release and downregulate the Th1 immune responses to unrelated bacterial and viral infections. So, the theory goes, colonization with intestinal helminths might be beneficial in reducing inflammation in patients with IBD, multiple sclerosis, and other autoimmune diseases. "Epidemiologic evidence, case control observations, animal studies, and clinical studies all suggest that helminths may afford protection from or even treat autoimmune diseases," Coronado states.
TSO has been selected as a clinical candidate because as a nonhuman parasite, it is naturally eliminated from the body within a few weeks. Conorado says multiple investigator-sponsored clinical trials evaluating TSO for the treatment of Crohn disease, ulcerative colitis, and multiple sclerosis have already been completed and demonstrated that the porcine helminth egg therapy results in meaningful clinical benefit.

Again, I think a lot of the
Again, I think a lot of the critism of Dusty on TCR is beyond ridiculous (mostly from users, not mods). But then I see Dusty keep those two at the top of the lineup and just shake my head. It just lacks logic to me, when someone is hitting about .000 in his last 6 games or so, give him a little rest, take a little pressure off of him and move him down the order.
With Patterson, I think Dusty feels he'll see some good pitches ahead of Lee, so he won't continue to swing at junk...but when the pitcher knows he doesn't need to worry about walking Patterson, he'll give him junk too.
I also don't like seeing Blanco in the lineup again...I said I thought he was catching Maddux a lot recently on top of Zambrano, but was told I was crazy...if he is going to catch both, that's 40% of our games where we play a guy batting .150 instead of .300. We can;t afford that.
Our 3-7 hitters better do some damage, because 8,9,1,2 is a gaping black hole.
Prior could be back as soon as Sunday versus the White Sox....hot damn!!!!!
DLEE!! brenly just said
DLEE!! brenly just said "image what kinda numbers lee would have if patterson and neifi would take some walks"
is he reading TCR?
oh and not to mention, ARAM!!!
Did CPat rob Lee (the bad
Did CPat rob Lee (the bad guy one) of a HR? Gameday had his ball beyond the centerfield wall.
Fun Fact for the Day:
Fun Fact for the Day: Patterson, Perez, Macias and Wilson have a sum total of 586 at bats and a sum total of 24 walks. And two of them bat 1-2 in the lineup. And Dusty wonders why the offense is sputtering.
Beginning with the June 8th
Beginning with the June 8th game against the Blue Jays, the Neifi/Kpat 1-2 order has netted one walk between them in 10 games.
The one time this duo was not penciled into the starting linup as 1-2, Hairston batted 2nd ... and proceded to net his 7th caught stealing attempt.
The Brewers starter on
The Brewers starter on Tuesday, Victor Santos, is 2-6 with a 2.87 ERA. I don't see how that happens. It's happened to Clemen's this season some but heck, he is back up to 5-3. I still feel bad for Clement last year when the offense wouldn't do anything for him (at least before his late season meltdown when he took care of the losing all by himself). Anyway, hopefully we can make Santos ERA look a little uglier after Tuesdays game.
Come on now. Those walks
Come on now. Those walks are evil. Do nothing but clog the bases.
anyone else stoked...even
anyone else stoked...even though he may be a bit "not in peak condition"...that jerome f'n williams is playing tonite in a cubs uniform?
sure..he's not all that..he's not the next clemens or koufax or even close..but, he's a very servicable 2/3 spot rotation pitcher on a lotta teams when he's clicking. we know he's overweight, his velocity is still gaining (and has gained since he was traded to the cubs just 3 or so starts), and his sinker is working.
cubs sucked up loot taking on most of hawkin's tab, but hey...williams, and a bonus of mr. aardvark...
mitre's coming of age, williams on board...rusch with a contract-out clause if he's not a starter in 06. should be a fun few weeks while hendry runs around figuring out how many of those he can keep around while getting what he needs.
I am definitely looking
I am definitely looking forward to watching Williams work. I hope he lives up to his potential for us.
I went up to MIL for the
I went up to MIL for the game last night. Couple of notes:
- I would estimate that over 50% of the fans there were Cubs fans.
- Maddux was pretty good and more than kept us in the game. Of course the one long ball was really his only problem last night. Win #311...hello to Mr. Seaver.
- Everytime Lee steps to the plate you expect him to get on. As Yost showed last night, I think teams are going to start to IBB him more. The new Mr. Bonds?
- Neifi and Corey both got 2 hits....finally!!!
- The bullpen is the most unreliable bunch of crap I have ever seen. Everytime a new releiver came in, it seemed like I was more worried than the last.
- Weurtz looked HORRIBLE, Remmmy did a GREAT job striking out Overbay and Lee to get out of the jam in the 7th, but they looked bad in the 8th.
- Great move (no brainer I guess though as everyone else sucked and he had no other choice)by Dusty to bring in Dempster in the 8th in that jam. I HATE when closers come in the 8th, but Dempster had not pitched in forever and this was a game that the Cubs really needed to win.
- Saving the best for last....What a play by Neifi Perez in the 8th inning. The Defensive play of the year so far for the Cubs. Very, very possibly saved the game. It was amazing he got to it, then amazing he got the ball to Walker so fast and even more amazing they were able to turn the DP. If Neifi doesn't get to that ball it is 5-5, with 1 out men on 1st and 2nd. Hopefully we can look back on that play as a start of another good streak.
Don't look now but JB was almost at .300 last night. He was in the dumps just 2 weeks ago, good comeback.
Like I said yesterday, I am no where as worried about the offense as I am the pitching (mostly relief pitching). If the starters go their 7 IP and give up nore more than 3-4 runs and the bullpen can hold their own, the offense will score enough runs to win lots of games. With Wood and Prior coming back in the next week or so, hopefully they can pitch well and take inning away from the bullpen.
the bullpen has been muddled
the bullpen has been muddled and ineffective for the last few years...when is Rothschild's contract up?
I tremble to think of what Mike Maddux would do with the talent of this Cubs' staff...
Wuertz is becoming over used.
Wuertz is becoming over used.
Wuertz is definitely getting
Wuertz is definitely getting cooked.
Hats off to Dempster for looking so sharp last night after not pitching in a game for over a week.
Fanzone: "Wuertz is becoming
"Wuertz is becoming over used."
How so?? In June (20 days old), he has a total of 8 IP in 9 appearences. He is "supposedly" our 2nd best bullpen guy, so he should be used more than others. But that is not a lot of work.
Now his last 4 appearences he has looked very bad, even if he hasn't given up many runs. Here is his line:
3.0 IP, 6.00 ERA, 8 hits, 2 ER, 5 BB
His WHIP is now 1.50 on the year. That is a VERY dangersous number and has been lucky to only have his ERA at 3.58 (example is Remmy bailing him out last night).
Him being our setup man shows how dangerously flammable this bullpen really is.
Like I stated before, hopefull Wood and Prior can help the starting pitching go deeper in games, so we can use the bullpen less and less. They seem to do better when they only have to be used for no more than 6 outs.
Interesting to see someone
Interesting to see someone blame Rothschild for the bullpen problems. Seems to me he's working with what's he's given. Plus, if you want to blame him, then how about giving him some credit for Rusch, Weurtz, Mitre, Wellemyer and how well they've done?
Out of Wuertz' 9 appearances
Out of Wuertz' 9 appearances this month, 4 have come in the last 5 games. During this stretch, he did not appear on two straight days as Friday was an offday and he did not pitch in Sat's blowout.
Before they do anyhting
Before they do anyhting outside the organization to bolster the bullpen, the Cubs should give Jermaine Van Buren a shot.
Yes, I know he's not on the 40-man rosyer, but there are several DFA candidates:
1. Richard Lewis (who couldn't even hit .200 in AAA, before being sent back to AA for the third year in a row, so he should be able to pass through waivers without being claimed, and it's no great loss if he does get claimed by another club);
2. Cliff Bartosh (who has little value--even as a LOOGY, such that there is a good chance he also would clear waivers if the Cubs tried to send him to AAA outright);
3. John Koronka (who obviously does not have the talent to pitch in the majors);
4. Joe Borowski (who is still owed about $1.3 mil this year, but who is also pretty clearly washed-up and is too dangerous to be used in a meaningful situation).
So there are plenty of candidates to be removed from the 40-man roster to make room for Jermaine Van Buren.
And should it be necessary to option Van Buren back to Iowa for some reason before September 1st, it's no big deal that his option clock will have started, since he's no "spring chicken" (he turns 25 next week).
For those of you not familiar with Jermaine Van Buren, he was signed by the Colorado Rockies after the Rockies drafted him in the 2nd Round of the 1998 Draft out of a Mississippi high school, but he struggled in "Lo-A" ball for five seasons (1998-2002) before getting released.
He then signed with an independent club in Texas (the Fort Worth Cats of the Central League) in 2003, and it was there that he turned his career around. The Cubs purchased his contract from Ft. Worth prior to the 2004 season, and he has pitched well at various stops (Lansing, West Tenn, and Iowa) in the Cubs system over the past year and a half. He is currently the closer at Iowa.
Like Brandon Sing and David Kelton, Jermaine Van Buren will be a six-year minor league free-agent after this season if he is not added to the Cubs 40-man roster within ten days after the end of the regular MLB season, so the Cubs might as well bring him up right now.
I have always felt that
I have always felt that instead of going around looking for proven veterans for bare minimum salary (people like Macias and Wilson), it is better to get your AAA and AA guys on the 40 man rosters more time in the majors. I don't mean they should be brought up and get their clocks started without USING them; but to get them in and start getting them meaningful playing time. Same with the relief pitchers. Most relievers are failed starters anyway. They have 1-2 out pitches that can be utilised for 1 inning. Get people who have high K/BB ratio from the minors and put them in spots that are now being used by people like Bartosh and Borowski. It is unfathomable that these two stiffs are getting more use than a better pitcher like Wellemeyer. Dusty's insistence on 'proven veterans' will doom us again if he canot recognise what is in front of his face. Bartosh and Borowski are cooked. Remlinger cannot get out lefties. Corey is not a front of the order batter. Neifi is regressing to his career mean. I would rather have Walker and Barrett bat 1 and 2 than the black hole that is Neifi and Corey.
J Burnitz is quietly having
J Burnitz is quietly having season where he is on pace to hit roughly:
J Burnitz .300 30 100
A Ramirez .300 36 100
D Lee .400 45 160
M Barrett .290 20 80
N Perez .285 15 60
Maddux is just about on pace to win 15 games. 15-9
Reds just fired manager Dave
Reds just fired manager Dave Miley. He was 125-164 since he took over in July of 2003.
Interin manager will be Jerry Narron.
Bluewater Boats, are you
Bluewater Boats, are you suggesting that statistics can give us a ballpark idea of how certain players will be doing at the end of the year? Cause I'm quite certain that you've told us before that stats can't tell us anything about the future.
Let's face it. Corey
Let's face it. Corey Patterson will never see another good pitch again until he stops swinging at the really bad ones.
10 man- Has anybody thought
10 man-
Has anybody thought about checking Cpat's eyes?
I know its the song of the truly desperate, but I've seen him get good pitches and he takes them for strikes.
Maybe a pair of those evil looking red contact lenses might help? Otherwise everyone who's ever seen this kid's potential is completely whacked.

Lackey finishes with a 3.35 ERA. Currently good for 13th in the NL. Not bad for a guy signed to be a #3 starter in a 15-team league.
He is also 6th in WHIP. Pretty amazing: Cubs have the #2, #3, #5 and #6 starters in WHIP.
Completely meaningless game, but Pena striking out Sean the Turd to with the bases loaded was very fun.
Other than one bad game in SD, Pena has been very good. Even with that game, 9.0 IP, 13 K, 0.89 WHIP.
101 wins...most since 1910 (104).
neat. ...or sad. pick one. pick both. 'murica.
Just looked up Grimm's stats -- after a great run, he gave up 2 runs vs. MIL then didn't pitch for 10 days. Don't remember why?
Sean Rodriguez's helmet looks like it's taking a dump
Grimm not doing himself any favors lately re: making the playoff squad. Seems to have lost the feel for his curveball.
j.grimm is literally worse than hitler.
felix pena, your turn.
it's been a while since joe's over-managed a game...it's gotta feel good for him to be back in the saddle making people's scorecards look like their pens blew up.
Fuck a bench spot on the playoff roster, Coghlan is competing to bat cleanup.
barely any...especially for an evening game. place looks 1/2 full at best to start the game.
Listening on the radio. Are there any fans in the stands at all?
"An MRI taken Monday on the right side of Jorge Soler showed no major damage."
rare air though if he can keep it under 2. Sounds like Maddon already made up his mind though and Hendricks seems like the sort that would want to earn it. Guessing he gets a quick hook if he's still under 2 after 5 innings.
Fwiw, he can give up 1 ER in 5 innings (or more) and still be under 2. If he gives up 2 ER, he would need throw 9 IP to keep it under 2. 1 ER in 4 IP would give him an ERA of exactly 2.
In terms of WAR, it's still Scherzer by a lot (6.4), then Cueto (5.6), Lester (5.5), Kershaw (5.5), Roark (5.4), and then Hendricks (5.1)
Boring lineup tonight in terms of guys trying to reach milestones -- no KB (40 HR), Addy (100 RBI) or JHey (can he keep it going?), and Lackey isn't really going for anything, plus the team has already reached 100 wins. I get the "rest" thing, although they will have 4 days off after Sunday, but....bleh.
Agree -- I think you want to keep him on a regular schedule.

Moultrie Middle School is celebrating its 40th year as a middle school. Last Thursday, the parents, teachers, students and staff threw a birthday party for the school, complete with party games and birthday cake. And as a part of the year-long celebration, second-year principal Anna Dassing would like to ask the community to help her write the history of Moultrie Middle School and Moultrie High School.
"There's such a sense of tradition here," she says.
"The kids grow up in the community and their parents went to Moultrie Middle or Moultrie High."
We want to honor the past while pushing for the future," she adds. "We try to get the students to understand they attend a historic school."
Moultrie Middle School opened its doors as a middle school in 1973. Before that time, the campus at Coleman Boulevard and Simmons Street was the location of Moultrie High School which housed a high school as well as seventh and eighth grades. When Wando High School opened its doors, that allowed the Moultrie campus to become solely a middle school.
The present Moultrie Middle School building opened in 2009, replacing an older set of buildings.
Dassing came to Moultrie for the 2011-12 school year and soon realized that the school would be reaching the milestone of 40 years as a middle school.
To honor the anniversary, the art department and art students designed a school seal which states Moultrie Middle School established 1973, Doctrina Perpetua (always learning).
Symbols on the shield include the math symbol pi, and a globe, stressing the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) push; a palmetto tree and a gorget, symbolizing history; sheet music, a musical instrument and a paint brush, symbolizig the arts; and a shrimp, symbolizing the ties to Shem Creek and environmentalism. An oak tree is in the background of the seal and is meant to represent the big oak tree so prominent on the campus today as well as when the original school first opened.
Dassing is working on a school scrapbook where she'd like to display photos of the old school building as well as the new one and whatever other momentoes people would like to have copied or donated. She invites members of the public to share pictures of the old high school and middle school and the tree that's such a prominent campus landmark. She asks that people bring photos and other momentoes by the school or email photographs and memories of the school to her at firstname.lastname@example.com.

PerfView Tutorial 5 - The Drilling Into Feature
- Posted: Aug 06, 2012 at 12:09PM
Right click "Save as…"
This is the fifth in a series of video tutorials on how to use the PerfView profiling tool. It is best to watch the video using one of the high quality links on the right so the text is readable. This tutoral is on PerfView's 'Drill Into' feature, which allows you to selectively ungroup a set of samples in isolation, so you can understand just that part in more detail. You may wish to also to to the first tutorial on data collection or the second tutoral on data analysis if you have not already done so.
The PerfView tool is a free Windows performance tool developed by the Microsoft .NET Runtime Performance team for investigating both managed can unmanaged performance problems. If you are having a performance problem, especially if it is a .NET application, it is hard to overestimate the value of this tool.
You can get the PerfView tool (for free) at the Microsoft Download center. (bing search on 'PerfView download'). PerfView consists of a single XCOPYable EXE so it is easy to simply 'try out'. You can literally open the .ZIP file, and double click on the .EXE inside to launch it and then follow along with the video tutorial. Ultimately you will want to copy this file out of the ZIP file (e.g. drag it to the desktop) to make it easier to launch.
Oops, something didn't work.

One woman was injured in a one-vehicle accident that occurred around 8 a.m. Wednesday morning in Barbour County.
The accident took place on Corridor H near Talbott Hill above the Mikey Hart Bridge, James Harris of the Junior Fire Department, said.
"She was rolled over on top and trapped when we got on scene with what appeared to be critical injuries," Harris said.
Harris did not release the name of the woman involved in the accident, but said the vehicle she drove did not carry any passengers.
The injured woman was transported to Davis Memorial Hospital in Elkins for treatment. Harris said HealthNet was unable to transport her because of weather conditions.
The Junior Fire Department along with the West Virginia State Police, Belington Fire Department and two units from the Belington Emergency Medical Squad responded to the scene of the accident. Sgt. J.A. Simmons from the Elkins Detachment of the West Virginia State Police also traveled to the scene, according to officials.

Wednesday's triple-12 date - Dec. 12, 2012 - helped boost business for some Maui wedding coordinators during a typically quiet month for destination weddings in Hawaii.
It also marked the end of a string of repetitious dates seen in each of the last 11 years. The next such date won't occur for nearly a century - on Jan. 1, 2101.
Local wedding planners said the interest from couples to tie the knot on 12/12/12 was nowhere near the rush for previous dates like 7/7/07.
Article Photos
It was a busy day for weddings Wednesday — Dec. 12, 2012. Three weddings were held at Makena Cove between 8 and 10 a.m. As of 2 p.m., 100 beach wedding permits had been pulled for the day for beaches across Maui, according to the state Department of Land and Natural Resources.

Shirley and David Connelly admire their newborn son, Marley, on Wednesday afternoon. He was born on 12/12/12. The Kihei couple said their older son, Finley, nearly had a similarly unique birthday when he was born last year on 11/10/11.
The Maui News / MATTHEW THAYER photo
"I did nine weddings for 7/7/07. It was ridiculous," said JJ Preston, who co-owns MauiWeddingPlanner.com with her husband, Michael Beachwood. "And we did three or four weddings a day for 10/10/10 and 11/11/11. We had a lot of inquiries about 12/12/12. But not as many people asked for it."
Following the flurry of activity that started with May 5, 2005, for her company, Preston said, she began charging higher rates for those trendy wedding dates. And by design, she said, her company did just one wedding ceremony Wednesday.
"I think everybody, those who didn't raise their prices, definitely saw an uptick," she said. "My florist had 50 other weddings to handle today."
Preston said she saw four or five other Maui wedding coordinators earlier in the day, who each had booked three or four weddings apiece.
She said clients have seen the popular wedding dates as bringing good fortune to their marriages or making for easy-to-remember anniversaries.
"On top of the 7/7/7's and 11/11/11's, the succession dates like 9/10/11 and 10/11/12 were popular, too," Preston said. "The whole thing is interesting. I think it's things we need to pay attention to, but I don't run my life by it."
By noon Wednesday, Maui-based A Paradise Dream Wedding was advertising a 12 percent "last minute discount" on its website, noting that it had two spots left for the special day.
As of about 2 p.m., 100 beach wedding permits had been pulled for the day for beaches across Maui, according to state Department of Land and Natural Resources spokeswoman Deborah Ward.
That compares to 155 permits issued for Nov. 11, 2011. (The state requires a right-of-entry permit for all commercial weddings in which a person is receiving compensation for services rendered on state beaches.)
Ward said Wednesday's permit count was likely to increase as the sunset hour approached, being that wedding professionals can pull permits online just before a ceremony.
Shasta Rose, owner of Maui Weddings from the Heart, said she too received a lot of interest for 12/12/12 bookings. But she chose to do just one wedding for the day.
"I turned down quite a few that wanted too small a package, all at sunset," she said.
"It seems quieter than last year's 11/11/11, when I did nine weddings," Rose said. "Of the 60 companies on Maui, maybe 20 of them pulled beach wedding permits for today compared to the 150 permits last year for 11/11/11."
Still, she said this December is proving to be busier than usual for her business.
"December is typically slower because people are too busy with the holidays, flights are usually more expensive," she said. "But this week is busy. I think it's because the airlines are running special deals. This is probably the busiest December I've had."
Preston said business this month has been steady for her company.
"Around Thanksgiving it gets busy, and right after Christmas and New Year's, but in between usually drops off," she said. "With this being an election year, usually election years are slower."
Wednesday's special date will also be marked on the birth certificates of three babies born at Maui Memorial Medical Center as of 1 p.m. Four more were on the way.

13.30In order to find out what personal items refugees from disaster area may badly need, together with RHD Amgaa I visit Carrefour supermarket to make a list. With a clear price list of local goods, the organization can quickly find out what it could buy and send to the disaster area. We check different categories such as instant noodles, bottled water, canned meat, canned fish, sausages, biscuits, tooth paste and brushes, soap, toilet paper, washing powder, towels and so on - whatever we can think of for the emergent needs of the refugees. Meanwhile, we also check the size of the goods' packaging and weight in order to guarantee that our trucks will not be overloaded. Everything we do is focused on logistical support to the disaster area. We hope that with our efforts that we can alleviate some of the suffering of the refugees.
20.00After many days of emergency rescue efforts, we find that there are several NGOs operating in different areas. In order to prevent duplication of work and to share the latest information, we organize a meeting with the participants of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), Action Aid, Medicins sans Frontiers, the Hong Kong Red Cross and UNV. Through this meeting, the NGOs share their experience and information and arrive at a consensus on preventing duplication of work.

What do a peg-legged pirate, Cookie Monster, land shark and a duck all have in common? They all tested their luck crossing the chilly waters of Lake Cushing for The 22nd Annual Cushing Crossing at Squaw Valley on April 29, marking the last day of winter operations.
The conditions couldn't have been better for one of the most anticipated events in the Tahoe area, welcoming participants and spectators to sport sunglasses, swimsuits, costumes and heckling attitudes.
The event, which holds the title as the original pond skim, began 22 years ago as a ceremonial crossing between ski patrollers marking the end of the season. Today, pond skimming is a staple in spring events, with Squaw being the reigning champion.
"What I like about this pond crossing is that it's a real pond crossing. I've done ones in Vail, I've done ones in Steamboat, they trench a hole and it's a little pit. This is the real deal. This is like the pond crossings of all pond crossings," stated Olympic medalist and Squaw rider Jonny Moseley.
With a panel of celebrity judges including Sherry McConkey, Andy Wirth, Michelle Parker, Tamara McKinney and Erik Roner; with Jonny Moseley and Chris "Uncle E" Ernst emceeing the event, there were ample amounts of hilarious heckling and quirky humor.
"This event, truly, I think is like the best event of the year. Today's turnout was ridiculous. I mean, it just seems like it keeps on getting bigger and bigger every year," said Moseley.
According to Amelia Richmond, public relations manager of Squaw Valley, sign-up this year was moved from noon to 9 a.m. Registration was open to the first 50 contestants with more than half waiting in line by 7:30 a.m.
Kendal Naughton kicked it off with the national anthem, gearing up everyone in attendance for a true sporting event. The competition was judged based on four categories: creativity, grace, style and the successful completion of the crossing. There was no shortage of creativity as contestants sported homemade costumes with only hopes coming away partially dry as they waited patiently atop the run.
"You have to get creative, simply put, just get as creative as you can. If you've got a very creative costume on, and you don't make it across, you got to take it with humility. At least you gave it the effort, but there's a bit of humility, even the best have tried and failed," stated Ernst, 1994 champion.
If contestants did go for a swim, ski patroller Ivan McGurk was on his raft nearby to slowly lend aid to the fallen skimmers who were being targeted by snowballs.
The overall winner this year received a 2012-13 Bronze Tahoe Super Pass, with all other categories receiving a $100 cash prize.
The winners and costumes are as follows: Overall, Ben Paciotti, first switch crossing in Cushing Crossing history; women's ski, Shawna Hogan, Swiss Miss Beer Lush; men's ski, Tom Hogan, Chillin' and Grillin'; women's snowboard, Jessica Wilson, Shaun White; men's snowboard, Jeremy Jones, Corky Carrol; skinny ski bonus, Marco Sullivan, highest scoring crosser on skinny skis; unlimited division, Mat Jackson, attempted on ski bike.
"As far as events go, and I've announced over a 1000 events around the world, this is one of my favorite," said Uncle E.
If your swimming abilities are up to par and creativity is something you're not lacking, then don't miss your chance next year at The 23rd Annual Cushing Crossing.

TAHOE/TRUCKEE - Powerful early-season storms combined with the area's largest snowmaking operations will allow Vail Resorts' Lake Tahoe mountains - Heavenly Mountain Resort, Northstar California Resort and Kirkwood Mountain Resort - to open early, officials have announced.
Heavenly and Northstar will open on Wednesday, Nov. 14, Vail announced in a Monday press release, with a combined seven lifts and eight trails, totaling 51 acres. On Friday, Nov. 16, Kirkwood will open one lift and five trails, accessing another 40 acres; and Heavenly will open Dipper Express, adding another 20 acres, weather and conditions permitting.
By Friday, the three resorts plan to be open with nine lifts, 14 trails and 111 acres. Heavenly and Northstar had originally planned to open Nov. 16, with Kirkwood following on Nov. 21.
"No need to bring your 'rock skis' to our resorts," said Pete Sonntag, Heavenly's general manager. "Our resorts have a reputation for opening with quality in addition to quantity. The guest experience is always first and foremost at our mountains and providing the best skiing surfaces possible plays a huge part in that."
Northstar will open four lifts on Wednesday, including the Big Springs Express Gondola, Big Easy, Arrow Express and Vista Express chairs, giving access to Pinball, Main Street, Upper Main Street, Lumberjack, Woodcutter and Easy Street trails. One of the beginner carpet lifts will also run, opening up some terrain specifically for new skiers and riders.
"This last storm brought phenomenal snowfall and our snowmaking team has been hard at work to make ensure we have the extra coverage needed to provide a high quality experience," said Northstar COO Bill Rock. "Our guests expect the best and we're ready to provide that, so why wait?"
All three resorts can be accessed under the Tahoe Local Pass, which costs $459 this year. The pass "remains unmatched in value, price and experience with access to more than 263 trails, 14 terrain parks and 10,270 acres of some of the best terrain in the world..." according to the press release.
Once the resorts open this week, lift tickets will be available at early season pricing and can be applied toward the purchase of a season pass.
For more information on each resort, visit the following websites: www.skiheavenly.com; www.NorthstarCalifornia.com; and www.kirkwood.com.

Except for the Altoona High pep band, Monday's basketball game between the Mountain Lions and Greater Johnstown Trojans lacked the atmosphere that used to prevail in one of the area's big high school rivalries.
Altoona-Johnstown, once guaranteed three meetings on the hardwood each season, has been reduced to one game a year because the Lions are Class AAAA and the Trojans are Class AAA.
Even though they are a classification lower, the Trojans dominated from start to finish Monday, rolling to a 60-45 win at the AAHS Fieldhouse. Johnstown improved to 8-3 with the win while Altoona slipped to 7-5.

Mirror photo by Patrick Waksmunski
Altoona's Brandon Lytle drives toward the net by Johnstown's Roshan Fields.
"Johnstown played an excellent game," Altoona coach Paul Hasson said. "Their ballhandling was superior."
Manny Span's short jumper gave Altoona a 2-0 lead, but that was the Lions' only lead of the night. Phil Madison, Johnstown's slick, quick guard, took control of things from there and scored 12 first-quarter points as the Trojans grabbed a 16-10 lead.
The Lions put up 19 points in the second quarter to trail be only one, 30-29, at the half, but the Trojans regrouped at intermission and outscored Altoona, 30-16, in the second half.
"Their dribble-drive offense, their quickness and ballhandling enabled them to get to the basket, pretty much at will," Hasson said.
"We executed our gameplan, and took control in the second half," Johnstown coach Neil Cobaugh said. "Our guards are quick, they're smart, and they understand the game.
"We were able to get some easy baskets, and we fed off that," Cobaugh said.
Altoona had no answer for Madison, a 5-foot-8 senior, who finished with 27 points. Roshan Fields, Johnstown's 6-6 pivot, chipped in with 17 and 5-4 point guard Daniel Barfield added 10 points while playing a flawless floor game.
"Toughness and rebounding, that was the difference," Madison said. "Coach always tells us to be the aggressor and not get pushed around.
"Our disciplined play? That's coaching," Madison said. "Coach always says to be patient and make the smart play."
DeShea Lee's free throw tied the game at 32-all early in the third quarter before the Trojans went on an 8-0 run [6 by Madison] to grab control for keeps.
"We played a good second quarter," Hasson said, "but, overall, we didn't play well. We came out and scored five points in the third quarter. My hat's off to Johnstown. They outplayed us and outcoached us."
It was a disappointing loss for the Lions, who overcame a huge deficit to beat State College in overtime last week.
"We tried to guard against a letdown," Hasson said, "but we've got to move on."
The Lions travel to Pittsburgh on Wednesday to face Brashear of the City League.
"We're not good enough to pick and choose which games to be ready for," Hasson said. "We've got to be ready every game."
Cobaugh hopes the win propels Johnstown to even bigger and better things.
"A lot of our guys are too young to remember the magnitude of this rivalry," Cobaugh said, "but I'm fortunate to have two [assistant] coaches who played in this rivalry. Coach [Chuck] Wyatt played when it was at the War Memorial, we did some history on it and talked about it and our people understand the importance of it.
"It's not about whose basketball team is better or whose school is better, it's a city thing for bragging rights in this area. It was big for us to get this win because Altoona has been playing super the last couple games."

Verizon's most recent attack on the
iPhone came in the form of "There's
a map for that" ads which poked fun at AT&T's 3G
coverage in the United States. While those ads -- which were a
humorous take on AT&T's "There's an app for that"
commercials -- threw a few jabs at the Apple/AT&T dynasty,
Verizon's newest ad campaign is full of powerful combinations.
In a new commercial which aired
tonight according to Engadget, Verizon once again goes
with similar iPhone themes (music and font in this case) to attack
all of the things that the AT&T/iPhone can't do or doesn't physically
have. Some of the gems in the commercial include "iDon't have a
real keyboard", "iDon't run simultaneous apps",
"iDon't allow open development", and "iDon't have
interchangeable batteries".
The commercial then shifts gears and
goes all "mech" on the viewer to advertise the upcoming
Droid which will use Google's Android 2.0 operating system. While
the Motorola Droid isn't shown in the commercial, Verizon points
users to a teaser site at droiddoes.com.
Verizon's hard stance against the
iPhone sheds quite a bit of doubt on Apple's iPhone coming to its
generation LTE network (as many Verizon customers and burned AT&T
customers have pined for); however, stranger things have happened.
It remains to be seen if the Motorola
Droid will have what it takes to dethrone Apple's iPhone in the
hearts and minds of American consumers and push more customers to
Verizon's network. If the Droid isn't enough, it'll have plenty of
help from the Blackberry
Storm2 and the Verizon
Palm Pre.
quote: AT&T stinks in many places but not everywhere. Outside of major cities, AT&T is actually quite good. I know because I have AT&T and ever since the "fewest dropped calls" commercials many years ago, I have not a single issue. I don't have 3G. The key to determine where AT&T is good is how big the city is. The smaller the city, the better the service. If I drive 45 minutes, I get 3G but also get more problems, usually because of a full tower. But since the service is more than adequate where I live and since I am grandfathered into a great rate plan, I don't change.
quote: I've noticed that Verizon has AT&T envy. Does Verizon attack Sprint?

We believe these Microsoft-based requirements would violate the Competition in Contracting Act because they bear no rational relationship to the DOI's needs, are not written to enhance competition or innovation, and unduly restrict competition.
quote: The DOI last year went looking for a web-documents service
quote: Google doesn't need to have a competitor to exchange if you read the article. This is around a web document service, not a client based email provider - 2 very distinct things. If we are talking email (and we are not its overall document services) then that would level the playing field with exchange because of ms outlook web access as part of exchange (vs gmail etc.)
quote: The DOI made up its mind beforehand and did not consider alternative solutions... but how is the government different from corporations? If MS entered an agreement with them then it would be antitrust, but they decided to choose ms even before going to bid.

As a resident, parent, and educator, I wanted the readers to be aware of a very dangerous product being sold right here in the local area. SYN, an herb being marketed as incense so it can be sold "legally," is actually being rolled and smoked because it strongly mimics the effects of marijuana.
Its side effects, however, can be worse. The use of "fake pot" spurred more than 3,500 calls to poison control centers throughout the U.S. since January of 2010. (American Association of Poison Control)
Several teenagers have died after smoking similar synthetic cannabinoids. David Rozga, 18, of Iowa, committed suicide last year after smoking the substance. He had graduated from high school one week earlier and was planning to attend college in the fall. No prior signs of depression were evident.
A 14-year-old in Missouri nearly jumped out of a fifth story window because of a bad trip experience. (Yes, 14 and available at a local convenient store!)
And Charlie Davel, 19, was killed after he fled police and went the wrong way on a highway just hours after smoking K2, the predecessor to SYN.
Parents and neighbors, this poison is right here in our own back yard and something needs to be done. Unfortunately as of now it is legal because as I said earlier it is marketed as incense. How can you help? In a word; boycott. If you enter a convenient store, a gas station, or any establishment that sells packets of SYN or similar products, tell the clerk you'll be back when it's gone and walk out! There are dozens of stores in the area that support family safety and values and would love your business.
Please consider one of my favorite quotes the next time you shop. "The only way for evil to prevail is for good people to do nothing."

It's official: Rich Rodriguez is out as the head football coach at the University of Michigan.
What started yesterday, with speculation, rumors and delays, became official this morning. Michigan athletic director David Brandon will hold a press conference at 12:30 p.m. EST, approximately half an hour from now, and we'll have the live updates for you.
The school said Brandon will discuss the state of the football program. In a release obtained by the Detroit News, Brandon said, "I have completed a systematic and thorough review of our football program and believe that a change in leadership is necessary. We have not achieved at the level that I expect...Rich is a good person and coach. It's unfortunate that it didn't work out at Michigan, but I'm sure that Rich and his staff will find opportunities at other institutions. I wish Rich and his family all the best in the future."
So, from that alone it appears Rodriguez's staff has been let go as well.
Keep it here for updates on the developing situation and more from Brandon when the press conference begins shortly in Ann Arbor.

It's been way too long since Dare Obasanjo (of RSS Bandit and Carnage4Life fame) has appeared on C9. The last time was several years ago in an interview conducted by me and Scoble on a summer day outside of building 35 on the main MS campus in Redmond. What's Dare been up to since we last spoke? Turns out, quite a bit Dare works on the Live SDK team. They recently shipped the SkyDrive API. If you're not familiar with SkyDrive, it's a cloud-based personal file storage service, allowing users access to any file, anytime, anywhere... (we talk about what exactly that means and how it works in this conversation).
Here we catch up and geek out a bit on SkyDrive (from a developer and consumer's perspective, with an emphasis on the former, of course), web programming, personal file storage solutions (how do you design a SkyDrive?), the difference between SkyDrive and traditional (local) storage solutions, when to use SkyDrive verus Azure storage, and of course the SkyDrive API.
Tune in. Enjoy. Welcome back to C9, Dare. We'll come see you again!
Oops, something didn't work.
I like to say, that the Live-SDK Team has done excellent work with the new SkyDrive-API. A huge step forward comparing with the old API. Continue your good work, and thank you for the excellent support.
Is there a way to "only browse" on a PC or Mac ? I mean should every laptop/desktop should have 7 Gb or 25 Gb eaten up, just because I might one day may want to use a certain file that is in the cloud ?
If you only want to browse from a certain machine couldn't you just use the web client from that machine?
Yeah, go to the web site. A "browse" only concept is fine until you are offline. Then how do you pull down the file you decide you want to do more with than see in the finder?
Congrats on a really great product!
And good old Dare. I remember him from the first years of XML.
This is going to be Awesome! I can't wait writing Apps to use skydrive...... I am planing to use this Skydrive for My home automation.. If something really happens.. I will send pics to Sky drive.. & My app [Android ] will Notify me if anything wrong..... awesome!
Thanks for a number of key details. I now am thinking of "how" to build to the API - based on the comment in the Video. Hope to see Dare back on "Channel" soon..
