Duncan had the flu the first 2 games against new orleans with a temp of 103 degrees in game 1, 102 degrees in game 2. The Spurs played great, like a championship team last night. I still think they will repeat.
I took one loss, I thought the Wizards were finally gonna beat the cavs but they didnt.
I only got 2 wrong. I picked washington over the cavs in the 1st round which through off my 2nd round but i had the 4 teams that are left. I think someone else did too, i think it was knicks126.
David sterns is praying for celtics and lakers, he dont wanna see another pistons vs spurs. The only thing that wouldve been worse then that is cavs vs spurs, a rematch of last year.
im still alive MSG with my Spurs and Pistons predicition, i think they can still beat Boston over 7
How are the Suns and Hornets doing? You were right though the Spurs are just too old
Gms, coaches, players may change but as long as Dolan is in charge the results will stay the same.

Hi there,
I'm using User Registration add-on with the Approve New Users plugin (third-party) as described in this thread:
Now, I would like to use GF's great entry management views for reviewing and approving users.
Any ideas, how could I add Approve and Deny user links to the entry detail view?
I guess that would require a reference to the given user ID and changing the user-meta "pw_user_status" to "Approved"
I acknowledge you can't support the integration with the third-party plugins but any help or opinions would be appreciated!
Thanks, Juhana

Popular Kids Wind Up Wealthier Than Their Wallflower PeersMadeline Holler
It's nice to think that popular kids reach their peaks in high school and that the geeks get theirs in real life. Unfortunately for you nobodies, rich geeks like Bill Gates, Steve Jobs and Marissa Mayer are the exception, not the rule. A new study concludes that once popular kids are earning more than the high school proletariat. Moreover, researchers found a wage-gap that matched the degree of between the least and most popular.
But here's a big problem with the study: they define popularity like a bunch of dorks.
First, some background on the study. The Washington Post reports that researchers Gabriella Conti, Gerritt Mueller, Andrea Galeotti and Stephen Pudney looked at data from a study that started back in 1957. The study, called the Wisconsin Longitudinal Study, followed some 10,000 women and men who graduated from Wisconsin high schools that year. More data has been collected from the study's subjects over the years, including information about social class, earnings and career achievement.
Among the data points in the original survey hinged on friends. Each subject was asked to list the three people they considered their closest friends. This new crop of researchers, looking into the popularity-earnings connection, examined the friend data and categorized each of the named friends. Those who were named the most were considered in the highest popularity percentile. Those who were named the least were in the lowest. The middles were divided up into percentiles that reflected the frequency with which their names appeared.
Incomes were examined and poof! The most named (e.g. the most popular) made more money than the rest — an average of 2 percent more than the rest. If a student moved up in popularity, that also showed a salary increase.
But here's the problem: researchers are defining "popularity" as those having the most friends, which, did we learn nothing from Brady Bunch/Facts of Life/90210/Dawson's Creek, etc.? For popular kids, it's lonely at the top! The most popular were never the ones with the most friends, they were simply the ones with the most admirers, the ones who wielded the most power, the ones with the most allure. To be listed as a friend, I would assume, you'd have to be approachable, available, you know … friendly.
What the researchers actually seemed to have found is that the more connected, networky, friendly and trustworthy you are, the more you'll earn in life. Which makes perfect sense, right? The researchers even say something similar, as Ezra Klein reports in The Washington Post:
Social interactions in high school "train individual personalities to be socially adequate for the successful performance of their adult roles," the researchers conclude. "Consistent with our view, we interpret our measure of popularity as a measure of the stock of social skills of a particular individual."
The real headline should be something like "Nice Guys and Gals Finish First."

If you've seen Catch Me If You Can [3], you know who Frank Abagnale is and he recently shared some identity theft tips (basically the things he does to protect himself) with MarketWatch [4] that are worth remembering.
- Don't use a debit card.
- Use checks sparingly.
- Use credit cards, because "card issuers do the most to shield consumers from fraud." (and pay off your balance at the end of the month)
- Use a credit bureau monitoring service that alerts you immediately via email (mail is too slow)
- Use a microcut shredder to turn sensitive documents to dust, literally. Shred the back of catalogs too to avoid someone stealing your customer information.
Solid tips everyone should be following from a solid reformed criminal who was really good at it.
I don't ever use a debit card because they offer no points or rewards for doing so, I avoid checks because they have all your sensitive information on it (account number, address, what else does a crook need?), and I use credit cards all the time. I use a crosscutting shredder, so not quite dust, but I don't employ a monitoring service… maybe it's time to consider it.

So far as the text is concerned, the author has creditably fulfilled this purpose, for the descriptions of the various technical procedures are clearly and concisely expressd, and, when possible, well selected illustrations help the reader to visualize the methods used. However, so far as acquiring a knowledge of the subject rapidly is concerned, the author repeatedly reiterates the statement that patience and experience and practice are necessary if one would become proficient.

SPRINGFIELD - On Oct. 18, Brittany Perez, a 19-year-old mother of a 1-year-old son, was killed in her Forest Park home by several bullets fired through the front window, apparently by a neighbor upset about a stolen television.
Perez was the city's 17th and final homicide victim in 2009.
She is also the last entry on another list: the names of 145 people killed in the City of Homes over the past decade.
The first two names on the list are Margarita Hernandez, 38, and her 18-year-old daughter Tanyaliz Torres. They were stabbed to death on Jan. 18, 2000 in a domestic dispute.
The 145 names -- each of them a tragedy to someone -- comprise a list representing the bloodiest 10-year period in the city over at least the last three decades.
"When I moved to Springfield in the 1980s, it was known as the City of Homes. It's the city of violence now," says Mario Hornsby. "And, that's sad."
Hornsby's son, Mario L. Hornsby Jr., is also on that list.
The young Hornsby, 19, a popular captain of the Central High School Basketball team, was gunned down in May 2008 when some gang members apparently fired randomly at a crowd of teens outside a home at Waverly and Shattuck streets. The shooter has yet to be apprehended.
His father, reflecting on the amount of violence in Springfield, can only say, "It's overwhelming."
To coincide with the end of the first decade of the 21st century, The Republican, using information gathered from its own archives, police and court sources, compiled a list of Springfield homicides between Jan. 1, 2000, and Dec. 31, 2009. Data from each killing was sorted by age, gender, race and location to produce a statistical snapshot of killings in the city over the 10-year span.
Among the chief findings:
- Victims were overwhelmingly male, 84 percent, compared to 16 percent female;
- Victims were overwhelmingly young, 63 percent under the age of 30 and a little more than third between the ages of 15 and 25. Sixty-three percent of suspects were also between 15 and 25;
- Victims were overwhelmingly people of color; 85 percent were minorities (45 percent black, 36 percent Hispanic, and 4 percent Asian). Among the victims under age 30, the percentage rises to 90 percent with black victims alone accounting for just under half [graphic]; and
- The neighborhood with the most killings was Metro Center with 23, followed by Forest Park with 21. Upper Hill, 14, Liberty Heights, 13, Old Hill, 10, and the South End, 10, each had double digits. Every other neighborhood had at least one, except for East Forest Park, which went through the decade without a single homicide. [graphic]
"It kind of hurts to see those numbers," said James Villalobos, 14, the freshman class president at Central High School and founder of the anti-violence group "Enough Violence in Springfield."
Frankie Mozell, who, through the Mason Square Weed and Seed Community Coalition, works with neighborhood teens, believes violence is robbing the city of its youth.
"I am saddened by the deaths of all these young people, especially of all the people of color," Mozell said.
One of the victims was Mozell's next-door neighbor, Emilio Marty, who was beaten to death during a fight in June. Marty used to shovel his walk in the winter, and his absence is felt every time it snows, Mozell said.
"It is very sad," he said. "It's hurt me, and I miss him."
Mayor Domenic J. Sarno says the impact of each killing creates untold ripples throughout the community. At the most basic level, for each person killed and each person sent to prison for the crime, there are two families left behind to deal with a profound absence.
The mayor said he's grown frustrated with attending one anti-violence rally after another during his first term, but he continues to go. He also makes a point to visit the families of victims whenever possible.
Although his staff tells him not to, Sarno said he tends to take each homicide personally. "It is personal; it is our city," he said. "We all need to be part of the solution."
The Republican's review also included plotting the location of each killing on a map. By arranging the information geographically, it creates a new snapshot that would not be visible to the naked eye through a chronological or alphabetical list.
For example, Forest Park is one of the city's most affluent neighborhoods, but half of its 21 homicides occurred within two narrow slices of the neighborhood, each dominated by low-income, multi-unit apartments.
Five people were killed at Locust Street and Leyfred Terrace, and another five on Longhill Street. The city has since closed down the 211-unit Longhill Gardens and a developer is renovating the complex to have 97 fewer units.
In Old Hill, Upper Hill, Bay and McKnight, the four high-poverty neighborhoods which comprise the Mason Square area, there have been 40 killings, or about 28 percent of the total.
Within a two block area of where Mario Hornsby Jr. was shot to death, five other people have been killed. Two of those cases remain unsolved.
In Forest Park, the residence at 55 Wilmont St. where Brittany Perez died was also the scene of another homicide a little more than a year earlier when 25-year old Christopher Washburn was stabbed trying to break up a fight.
And as if to challenge the perception that bad things only happen in bad parts of town, the map shows 10 of the Metro Center homicides happened on or within one block of Main Street; nine of the 10 have occurred within the last five years.
"To see it arranged that way is pretty shocking," said City Councilor Kateri B. Walsh. Walsh is also a member of the city's Ten Point Coalition that seeks to unite community groups and churches to combat violence.
Springfield had 17 homicides in 2009, an increase from 14 the year before, but still down from the decade high of 20 set in 2007.
The city averaged 14.5 homicides per year for the decade, far below Boston's average of 58. But, while Boston's numbers have declined from 84 per year in the 1990s, Springfield's numbers have crept up from one decade to the next.
In the 1990s, when the city was awash with crack cocaine and gangs openly feuded on city streets, there were 138 homicides. During the 1980s, there were 107.
Hampden District Attorney William M. Bennett believes it is important to view Springfield's numbers in the context of what is happening nationwide in urban areas. And, he said, it is also important to recognize that most homicides in Springfield are not random events involving strangers but rather two people who know each other and often travel "in the same illegal circles."
"If you don't do drugs and you are not in a gang, your chances of being victimized in drive-by shooting are greatly reduced," Bennett said.
That is not to say the murder of someone with a criminal record is less tragic than the death of someone with no record, he said. "Their deaths are no less tragic, and their families are no less devastated," said Bennett.
Many of the city's homicides and much of the overall violence is due to the overlapping areas of "drug-driven turf wars," gang violence and illegal guns, according to Police Commissioner William J. Fitchet.
"That's no mystery to anyone," he said. "It's all interconnected."
Gangs in Springfield are not highly organized. Most are made up of young people, particularly men and boys between the ages of 15 and 25, who diligently guard a block or two of landscape from which they sell drugs, he said.
Add illegal firearms to the equation of drugs and gangs, and it creates a dangerous compound, Fitchet said. "Dealers feel they need firearms to protect themselves from getting ripped off by other dealers and to protect their cash and drugs," he said.
Dealers who get ripped off cannot report it to the police; instead they seek revenge. When someone is shot, someone else is shot in retaliation, and a third person in retaliation of that, he said. "It's almost predictable."
Nationally, FBI statistics show homicide numbers trending slightly downward, but numbers for age, race and gender are very similar to what is seen in Springfield.
The U.S. Bureau of Justice reports that over a 25-year span between 1980 and 2005, 51 percent of all homicide victims and 65 percent of all offenders were between 18 and 34 years. And, since 1990, the highest grouping of victims have been in the ages of 18-24.
A study by Northeastern University criminal justice professor James Alan Fox noted that between 2002 and 2005, the number of young black men killed increased by a third, and the number of young black men arrested for murder increased by two thirds.
A 2008 report by the Governor's Anti-Crime Council's Urban Crime Committee, co-chaired by Attorney General Martha Coakley, called these trends disturbing and if left unaddressed, it could caused "escalating crime rates in the next decade."
As with any trend, the easy part is identifying it. Determining the cause, or even a solution, can be far more difficult.
People interviewed for this story expressed different thoughts for why the city's homicide numbers are edging upward over the last 20 years, while, as Bennett noted, the rest of Hampden County has seen a 30-percent decrease.
The easy answer is gangs, guns and drugs, but some point to a variety of other causes, too.
One is the city's poverty rate, which, according to the 2000 U.S. Census, was just under 20 percent and is likely higher today due to the recession.
Another is the loss of thousands of industrial jobs in the city over the past 40 years, beginning with the closing of the federal armory in 1968, and how the city has never really recovered.
"When I moved to Springfield in 1970, you could walk out of this building and go next door and find a job," said Mozell.

Darryl E. Moss, who worked with AWAKE, a community group that tries to steer teens away from violence, cites a lack of jobs but also the high school drop-out rate. The combination creates a population of unskilled and unemployed young people with very few legitimate options, he said.
"We hear from young people who say 'I'm ready to get out of the gang, but I need a job,'" Moss said. "Well, there are no jobs."
Rev. R.C. Watson, Jr., pastor of the New Canaan Baptist Church, believes a lack of work or positive activities like sports, and a growing disconnect between families and the church contributes to young people going astray.
"There is not enough to engage them so they see that there is an alternative to going down to the corner and blowing some other gang member's head off," Watson said.
Patricia Triggs, chair of the group Concerned Citizens for Springfield, points to an overall decline in the city's housing stock, mostly due to the loss of owner-occupied properties to rental properties managed by absentee landlords. This has claimed what used to be some very nice parts of town, she said.
"My children used to deliver papers on lower Belmont Street, and now it's a war zone," she said.
"We've gone from that to 'What are we up to now?'" Triggs said.
Over the last decade the district attorney has seen an increase in what he calls "an anti-social mindset," in which some people seem to have no interest in being part of the larger community or following the law.
Bennett said it goes beyond the "no snitching" code of the streets to witnesses, and even victims, of shootings failing to cooperate. In some cases, they willfully mislead police to hamper the investigation, he said.
"It is clear there is a sizable percentage of people who have this mindset," said Bennett. "And unless you change the mindset, you are not going to change their behavior."
Much of the violence, especially involving people under age 25, is spontaneous, according to Fitchet.
"Sometimes it's the slightest thing, a push or a shove or some type of disrespect can lead to spontaneous violence," he said. "I'm not sure a lot of thought goes into it."
Someone angry and out of control is made even more dangerous when carrying a firearm, he said. "Just having the guns available is what is so dangerous," Fitchet said, adding that his department has concentrated efforts on getting illegal guns off the streets.
Sarno said his administration is focusing on a combination of prevention and policing. He said he's solidly behind the Police Department and will provide resources for going after gangs, drug dealers and quality-of-life violations. But, the mayor also favors funding for educational programs to teach teens about the dangers of drugs and gangs, and for combating truancy and drop-outs.
The city last year divided $1.4 million in state Shannon Community Safety Grants among police, community and neighborhood groups.
Ultimately, though, families need to watch out for their own children, and the young adults for their own actions, Sarno said. Whenever he talks to young people, he said he urges them that if they walk into a situation that does not feel right, they should listen to their hearts, heads and guts and walk away.
"I believe in our people. I believe in our city. We have urban challenges, but we will conquer them," he said.
Since his son's death, Hornsby, a bus driver with Peter Pan Bus Lines, has devoted efforts to help prevent youth violence. He founded the non-profit Mario Hornsby Resource Center for Youth to aid young people between the ages of 14 and 21. He is also president of Families United of Western Massachusetts, a support group for the families of homicide victims.
Hornsby's message is that young people need help.
The influence of popular culture such as movies, video games and rap music that both glamorize and desensitize young people to violence is often overlooked among the reasons for violence, Hornsby said.
He recalled coming home one day a few months after Mario's death to hear the sound of gunfire from his living room. One of his sons was playing a borrowed video game called "Grand Theft Auto," a shoot-'em-up game in an urban setting.
He made his son get it out of the house. Such games, music and films which glorify violence as entertainment amid real-life loss is just incomprehensible.
"You can't go back and reset a life," Hornsby said. "There is no reset button."

Tip time: Richardson returns to 76ers lineup
Philadelphia - The big news in Philly on Monday was the recovery timetable for center Andrew Bynum, the 76ers' major off-season acquisition.
But of more imminent concern to 76ers coach Doug Collins was the return of guard Jason Richardson, who had missed the previous four games with a left ankle sprain.
The 31-year-old Richardson is in the 76ers starting backcourt against the Bucks on Monday, joining point guard Jrue Holiday.
"Ive always felt if you're starting and you come back (from injury), you're going to start," Collins said. "Secondly, with that ankle and his age and the minutes he's played in this league, I'm not going to ask him to warm up and sit down and then try to come out and play again."
Dorell Wright, the former Golden State player, started all four games in Richardson's absence and scored in double figures in three of the games. Wright is a three-point threat and hit 4 of 8 threes in the 76ers' victory in Toronto on Saturday night.
Collins said Bynum could be in the lineup by Jan. 10, if all goes well The former Los Angeles Lakers star suffered a right knee bone bruise prior to training camp and has not been able to do any training. The 76ers announced Monday he will be out for five more weeks but can start low-impact exercise now. They hope he can be cleared for basketball activities on Dec. 10.
"I think he's excited to take that next step and see how he's going to feel," Collins said. "Andrew wants to play, But he also understands if he takes all this time right now and misses a step along the way and goes backwards, it's not going to be any good for anybody.
"Any time you miss a lot of time, it's hard, to get your timing back, your conditioning, your strength. Plus he's on a new team. He's got new pieces around him, guys he hasn't been on the court with.
"There's the mental aspect of it. We're hoping when he does come back he's going to be free to get out there and just play."
The Bucks (3-2) will go with the same five starters they have used in every game this season; Tobias Harris, Ersan Ilyasova, Samuel Dalembert, Brandon Jennings and Monta Ellis.
Ellis had a stiff neck on Monday morning and was held out of the team shootaround but Skiles said he would start.
The 76ers (4-2) have won three straight games, all on the road, and their two losses came in back-to-back games to the New York Knicks.
- Bucks, Plumlee agree to four-year, $50 million deal
- Maker named to Vegas summer league second team
- Dekker, Rockets knock off Bucks in Vegas finale
- Giannis, Thanasis get call to service in Greek military
- Bucks face Mavericks in tournament play Wednesday
- Kidd recalls nearly joining Spurs, salutes Duncan

In this video, Taylor Muckerman lists three issues he believes investors need to watch with Sliver Wheaton. First, while Silver Wheaton has done well in the past, it can't afford to sit back. Watch for continued aggressive business activity. Second, Silver Wheaton has begun paying a dividend. In a capital intensive business such as silver streaming, this may be a liability, but it could also be a successful company sharing its success with investors. Lastly, world monetary policy has driven investors to silver as a safe haven. If interest rates rise, will investors leave silver for other assets?
If you are looking for a company whose success is determined by the metals market, but without involving itself in the risks of physically mining the metals, then Silver Wheaton provides a unique play on the future of silver. SLW chooses to finance the mining of silver; it has grown sales and net income every year since 2008, and also has increased competitive advantages over its limited peer group. More details about our outlook for Silver Wheaton can be found here in our Motley Fool analyst report.

As you can figure out, especially if you're a longtime reader, you had better have your stash of physical gold and silver. Furthermore, if you haven't noticed lately gold is on sale. The shiny stuff trades at a 17% discount to last year's highs.
People give me grief all the time about recommending and holding gold. "Oh, gold is risky," they say. "Yes, of course," I reply. "Gold has been risky since I started buying it at $300 per ounce, back in 2001."
Indeed, gold is risky today. From its current level gold could decline. That would be if there's a massive market crash, and people have to sell gold to raise cash to pay off their margin calls. Remember 2008? Gold sold down from about $1,000 to about $750. Still, that 25% haircut was mild, compared with what happened to the rest of the market. And through it all — the crash and turmoil — gold remained liquid. Somebody bought that gold. So gold is good, especially when people need fast cash.

Two paparazzi in camouflage tangled with security for Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie Thursday near the couple's French chateau, leaving a guard and a photographer bloodied.
Both sides filed legal complaints accusing the other of battery and causing injury, and one of the photographers also filed complaints for illegal detention and arrest, the Associated Press reports.
No arrests were made. A judge will rule on whether the complaints will be pursued.
The photographers, identified as freelancers Luc Goursolas and Marianne Saint-Arroman, clashed with the Pitt-Jolie security in the woods around Chateau Miraval, where the couple have been staying following the birth of their twins.
Trevor Neilson, a spokesperson for the couple, tells PEOPLE one of the paparazzi "viciously attacked a staff member, breaking his finger and wiping blood on his neck, arms, legs while saying he had Hepatitis C."
Goursolas confirms to the AP that he fought with guards, saying he broke one guard's finger and bit another, drawing blood. A guard, he claims, bloodied by hitting him on the head with a walkie-talkie.
"I was pouring blood. I threw myself at them, put blood all over them, and told them that I had HIV so they would stop hitting me," Goursolas told the AP.
But both sides conflicted on whether the guards were actually on the Pitt-Jolie's property.

10 Best Southern Restaurants in Atlanta: Upscale, Casual and Down Home
At 10Best, we're always on the lookout for Atlanta's best restaurants, and while we appreciate places that have a broad culinary range, we can't help but adore restaurants that specialize in a given cuisine. If you are in the downtown area and looking for a spot that will provide you with some entertainment, look no further than Sweet Georgia Juke Joint.
Want to visit a place that you don't have to get gussied up to dine, has been around for decades and is steeped in history? Check out Mary Mac's Tea Room or The Colonnade or Busy Bee Cafe. None take reservations, so expect waits if you visit at peak times.
Think the terms "southern" and "upscale" don't go together? You'd be mistaken. We've also included on this 10 Best list of Southern restaurants, those establishments that not only provide a beautiful and classy decor, but these restaurants have received much praise from national press. A visit to Empire State South seems mandatory for most of the celebrities than come through Atlanta. JCT Kitchen, located on the Westside of the city, had their "Angry Mussels" appetizer featured on the Travel Channel. Other upscale spots in the A are Wisteria and South City Kitchen.
Sweet Georgia's Juke Joint
Sweet Georgia's Juke Joint represents a deep history of music, food, drink and socializing in the South. With the downtown location, Sweet Georgia's Juke Joint attracts a lot of folks from out of town. But locals craving southern food with a side of music, should check this place out too. Besides the Peach daiquiri listed above, there's also Moonshine available here. Exceptional drinks, staff and upscale comfort food! Mac and cheese and fried chicken are a must as are the Shrimp and Grits. If you enjoy Jazz music, this is definitely a spot you will want to check out. There's even a dance floor to enjoy some dancing from the band. (4042090907)
Busy Bee Café
The Busy Bee Cafe is a casual diner serving southern style soul food. But it has reigned supreme as one of the favorite spots for soul food in Atlanta for years. This diner is a favorite of students at the nearby University who pack them full during lunch. Chitlins, ham hocks, meat loaf, and fried whiting are amongst some of the southern favorites on the menu. The staff always remains pleasant even during busy periods. The food and service will more than make up for the long wait. Save room for dessert! Banana pudding, red velvet cake, key lime cake, lemon pound cake are all customer favorites. Don't expect a late diner. The restaurant closes at 7 pm. (404-525-9212)
Horseradish Grill
Just like Atlanta itself, Horseradish Grill's New Southern cuisine manages to reconcile tradition and modernity. Their fried chicken is a staple the locals and those visiting love. Other solid choices are Grouper, Trout and even steaks. While the interior of the Sandy Springs restaurant is classy and well appointed, there's a certain charm to the outdoor patio. Idyllic outdoor seating under beautiful oak trees provides more secluded seating and is perfect on warm evenings. If your plans are to visit before a concert at Chastain, make sure to make reservations, as this is a popular choice for many concert goers. (404-255-7277)
Open since 1927, The Colonnade has been an attraction for nearly 100 years. Not much has been updated as far as the decor, but that doesn't keep the crowds away. It was the type of place your grandparents would have had dates back in the dat. Expect to find all your southern favorits here: fried chicken, grilled trout, cornbread. If you like chicken livers, you can find tasty ones here. It is also popular for special events. There's a banquet facility in the back the accommodate up to 72 people. Staff is courteous, polite and helpful. Most entrees are around twelve dollars. (404-874-5642)
Mary Mac's Tea Room
This restaurant is known as the place for classic Southern cuisine. Recently cited by Gourmet magazine as the best place for family dining in Atlanta, Mary Mac's has been providing great food in a comfortable atmosphere for more than 50 years. The charming staff bring out plates piled high with country favorites like fried catfish, country steak, and meatloaf, with sides like macaroni and cheese, sweet potato soufflé, squash soufflé, black-eyed peas, steamed cabbage, and collard greens. More upscale choices like filet mignon and prime rib are also available. Don't leave without sampling the homemade cinnamon rolls, a house specialty. People buy them by the dozen to take home. (404-876-1800)
JCT. Kitchen & Bar
With its light colored walls and light wood interior there is something very cheery about JCT Kitchen. It is headed by chef Ford Fry, who has opened up a notable seafood restaurant nearby as well. Start off your southern food experience with the Angry Mussels or the Pork Belly. For entrees get the Trout, Shrimp and Grits or Chicken and Dumplings. Sunday evenings feature a dinner served family style that is priced under $25. When the weather allows visit the upstairs bar before or after your meal. Often times, there is live music playing. This is a great spot to take out of towners. (404-355-2252)
South City Kitchen
This attractive, remodeled 1920s bungalow has a pleasant dining room dominated by an open kitchen. You can watch chefs whip up fantastic new Southern dishes like Coca-cola braised Salmon and grits, pan-fried catfish with mustard greens and warm pepper jelly, and crab hash with poached eggs and Idaho potatoes. You may be tempted to fill up first on the biscuits and cornbread, but try to resist as the main entrees and dessert are well worth saving room for. Though the Southern influence is obvious in the menu and the decor, the surroundings and the presentation are thoroughly modern. Great spot to take visitors. (404-873-7358)
Empire State South
Empire State South didn't take long to make it to the top of many critics "must visit" list. The restaurant is quite good at taking a new twist to old southern favorites. It is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The large restaurant features a bar area, perfect for those dining alone, with the rest of the seating area is perfect for large groups. Make sure to try the "super food" which is a vegetable plate that is not only healthy but extremely tasty too. Desserts can be hit or miss, but the appetizers are always winners. The interesting part about each dish is that the perfect mouthful is when everything on the plate is combined for the perfect bite. (404-541-1105)
Wisteria, located in a freestanding building with exposed brick and dark lighting it is extremely romantic, but also a fantastic choice to take an out of town guest. Wisteria can be described as upscale Southern. Don't miss The Patrice, a signature drink made with tequila and champagne is the perfect start to a relaxing evening. The huge wine list is an oenophile dream. The Black-Eyed Pea Hummus served up with home-made sweet potato chips had just the right amount of garlic and lemon juice. The scallops are another hit in the appetizer department. This is a twist on bacon-wrapped scallops using pork belly instead. The mussels, garlicky and served up with tomatoes are quite delicious. By far the most popular dish on the menu is the Molasses rubbed pork tenderloin. It brings guests back time and time again. (404-525-3363)

Downtown Buffalo needs? stadium/convention center
With the Bills and Erie County struggling to agree on the terms of a new stadium lease, and Buffalo making progress developing its waterfront, building a new waterfront stadium/convention center in the heart of downtown should be given consideration. Just look at similar cities such as Cleveland and Pittsburgh, which have recently built downtown waterfront stadiums, and imagine what could be.
If we look at the bottom line, that is: What are the costs? And what are the benefits? The conclusion is simple: If done right, it could be just what this city needs. Most people think that a new stadium involves billions of dollars in taxpayer money. Simply not true. Reliant Stadium, built in 2002 for the Houston Texans, cost $352 million and is still relatively state of the art. Cleveland Browns Stadium, completed in 1999, cost $290 million and completely transformed the city's waterfront.
Ralph Wilson Stadium is calling for $200 million just for a temporary fix to a completely outdated structure 25 minutes from the city. Put that money toward a new stadium, add in naming rights, the sale of Ralph Wilson Stadium, promised money from the state, and we're almost there.
Having a stadium/convention center with regular attendance of 70,000-plus streaming into the city would also fuel business downtown, translating into real economic growth for Buffalo. This would in turn have a ripple effect, and stimulate the Western New York economy as a whole.
A stadium/convention center such as this could be used 30 to 50 times a year. It would be able to host college bowl games, playoff games, large concerts and other major events that the city cannot currently handle. It would be 30 minutes closer to Rochester and Toronto than the current stadium and have a great game day atmosphere for all to enjoy.

County must restore? funding for libraries
Our 37 Buffalo and Erie County Public Library branches provide Internet and Wi-Fi access, downloads of e-books, information about a limitless number of subjects (including health, parenting and employment), programs for children, technology training, places for homework help and much, much more.
Since many of us have access to some of those resources via the Internet at home or at work, we may forget that there are people who do not. Libraries are indispensable community centers in which all who enter are on equal footing.
This is only the first of many reasons why library funding should be restored. In addition, we must find a way to stabilize those funds so that our library collections and programs can be maintained properly.

Hochul stands up? for her constituents
The mighty Kathy Hochul pulled a page from the Jack Quinn political playbook when she KO'd the party-picked No. 1 contender in the 26th Congressional District special election. Being a Hamburg resident and not always on the same side as Hochul, it is undeniable that she is hardworking, affable and politically astute. She is now walking a Wallenda-like tightrope between partisan Democratic politics and a district made up of a Republican majority and is finding the political winds of the Capitol are as unpredictable as those over the Niagara. If she falls, there will be no tether to save her undefeated record from the political graveyard.
Hochul earned my vote as an Independent when she refused to be beholden to the Democrats and voted to cite the presidentially appointed cabinet member and her husband's boss for contempt. I don't have an opinion on the Attorney General Eric Holder vote, but I do know she had little choice in her decision. As a member of Congress, she serves the people and must hear their voice, even if it does not echo her own.
I prefer a fighter, the people's champ in Hochul, to a party-appointed politician who, if elected, would never face a vote that would pose any real political threat.

Election inspector? was doing his job
A recent letter writer who said she had an unpleasant experience when she voted in the 2012 primary because she wore a political shirt was dead wrong. The election inspector was correct in calling her political shirt inappropriate.
Had she not noticed that outside the polling station that anyone handing out political info had to be at least 100 feet from the polling station? Had she not noticed that once inside the polling station, there was not one thing that was political in nature to catch one's attention? Did she not understand that when she called the Board of Elections, the reason it didn't side with her is because she was wrong and the inspector was doing his job? Does she feel that she is above all this? And what does this have to do with "freedom of speech"? Come on, really?
Then she goes on to say that she saw on TV two candidates at their polling places wearing political attire and they were allowed to vote. The inspectors in this case were not doing their jobs and should be instructed on their roles again. And shame on the candidates. Do two wrongs make a right? Never have and never will.
Her right to vote had not been violated, as she suggests. The polling station is a place where you confidentially vote your choice. She got to do that and, yes, she should consider what would be appropriate to wear to the polls when she votes in November.

Romney's triumph? comes as no surprise
I carefully watched all the Republican primary debates and personally concluded that Mitt Romney was an excellent debater and was consistently on the offensive with strong arguments against his opponents. When the liberal "mainstream" media proclaimed that he appeared weak and had no specific plans in his agenda, I was dumbfounded. They then went on to repeat this assumption so many times that their inaccurate portrayal became the accepted reality.
Immediately after the first presidential debate, most of the pundits � both Democratic and Republican � declared that Romney came out of nowhere and decisively shellacked President Obama. In my opinion, Romney clarified this situation by telling the story of his five sons who kept repeating something they wanted him to believe, in the hope that eventually they would convince him.
Obviously, Romney was much better coached and prepared with pertinent facts, and his coach deserves a large bonus for exposing the administration's lame positions. Obama will naturally be better prepared and come out swinging in the next two debates. The problem for him is that his philosophy of big government intervention and leading from behind will do nothing to solve the country's problems, many of which he himself has created.

American Airlines took a major step toward emerging from bankruptcy yesterday, when a federal judge threw out its pilots' union contract.
The airline's management has already negotiated concessions from its flight attendants, maintenance workers and other unionized employees. The decision by Judge Sean H. Lane will now let the Fort Worth-Texas airline lower its pilot payroll.
The move will quicken American's emergence from Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, either as a stand-alone airline or potentially merged with US Airways Group Inc.
The judge rejected the union's contention that American is doing much better financially than when it entered bankruptcy protection and didn't need to void the contract.
"Judge Lane's ruling is very important because it will allow us to implement the changes that are necessary for our successful restructuring," American Airlines spokesman Bruce Hicks said.
Hicks said, however, that there was "no sense of accomplishment" in winning the ruling and the company still wants to negotiate a new contract.
The airline has about 7,500 active pilots.
"Everybody, including the pilots, was expecting this," said Ray Neidl, an analyst with the Maxim Group. "This will go a long way to help American complete the restructuring plan."
American's parent, AMR Corp., filed for bankruptcy protection in November. Part of its plan to return to profitability is to cut annual labor costs by about $1 billion. The airline has lost more than $10 billion since 2001, although it has turned modest profits in the last two months after cutting other expenses through the bankruptcy process.

In Reply.—Our children should hear fairie tales, we're much agreed,
And hope that we adults have just as great a need.
Should not at times our own Promethean worlds be sought?
For rich is he who nutures yet prelogic thought.
Have not great men dared use the dreamer's scanning scope?
Only those who've sailed beyond our earth's terrain could hope
To envision life within the soul of each small cell,
Or capture unseen rays to make the hopeless well.
The well-spun tales where fantasy and truth entwine
Are sources of the miracles of future time.

A Call to Action
What: A shofar is a horn of a kosher animal with the marrow removed. Blow into a shofar, and you get a shofar blast. Blow the right sequence of blasts at the right time of year, and you've got a great mitzvah.
When: In the Bible, Rosh Hashanah is called "The Day of the Shofar Blast." That's the mitzvah of the day: to hear the blasts of the shofar. Since Rosh Hashanah is two days long, we need to hear the shofar blown during the daytime hours of both of those days—unless the first day falls on Shabbat, in which case we blow the shofar only on the second day. This year, 2015, we blow the shofar on September 14th and 15th.
Why: Basically, because it's a mitzvah. But the blasts of the shofar are also wake-up calls. Rosh Hashanah is the time to shake out of our spiritual slumber, reconnect to our source, and recommit to our divine mission in this world.
Who: While only men over Bar Mitzvah are obligated to hear shofar, the custom is that both women and children hear the shofar as well.
Where: Venue of preference is your local synagogue. There, the shofar is blown after the Torah reading. Click here to find a synagogue closest to you. No way you can make it? Contact your local Chabad rabbi. He'll do his best to arrange for a shofar-blower to pay you a personal visit.
How: It may look simple, but you've got to play by the rules. Unless you know all the rules, leave it to your rabbi or another professional. Here are the basics:
The shofar-blower recites two blessings, and then blows a set sequence of three kinds of blasts: 1) Tekiah—an uninterrupted blast lasting for several seconds. 2) Shevarim—three medium-length blasts. 3) Teruah—a minimum of nine very short blasts.
Do it right, and you end up with thirty such blasts on the shofar. That's the minimum requirement. In the synagogue, we blow a total of one hundred blasts, with the additional blasts distributed over the course of the prayers that follow the Torah reading.
richmond hill, canada
Long blast, three medium blasts, nine short blasts, long blast
Long blast, three medium blasts, long blast
Long blast, nine short blasts, long blast

The final blast you are mentioning may be the one that is blown at the conclusion of the Yom Kippur-Day of Atonement fast.

(Above left) Defensive tackle Ahmad Childress reaches to make the tackle. In the game Childress was credited with three solo tackles, including one for a loss. He also had a quarterback hurry.
Tailback Shaud Williams stiff-arms a would-be tackler. Several times during the game Williams appeared to break free, only to be caught by Oklahoma's speedy linebackers before he could go for big yardage. Williams' 91 yards rushing still led both teams in that category. (Barry Fikes photo)
Quarterback Brodie Croyle (#12) talks with Head Coach Mike Shula on the sideline. Lance Taylor (#39) and Clint Johnston (#88) look on. Croyle finished with 195 yards on 24-of-42 passing. He had one touchdown and two interceptions. (Barry Fikes photo)
Redshirt freshman defensive tackle Jeremy Clark (#99) makes the stop, as Mark Anderson (#47) rushes in to help. Bama's defense battled all night. But ultimately a few big plays by Oklahoma's offense proved to be the difference in the game. (Barry Fikes photo)
Senior wideout Dre Fulgham (#3) looks for yardage after the catch. Fulgham led Bama's receivers with 59 yards on four catches, but he also had a key drop. (Barry Fikes photo)
On this play Zach Fletcher is able to elude the tackle attempt. The senior receiver finished with two receptions for 23 yards. But Tide fans will remember that three times he was oh-so-close to catching a deep pass on the sideline, only to be ruled out of bounds. (Barry Fikes photo)
This year's staff doesn't keep stats on "pancake blocks," but if they did Justin Smiley would have him one on this play. Smiley (#78) might want to keep this picture of his block for Shaud Williams (#21), because that's Sooner All-American Tommie Harris (#97) getting shoved to the ground. (Barry Fikes photo)
Charlie Peprah (#26) talks with Sooner lineman Michael Hallock (#67) after the game. It was a hard-fought contest, with brutal hits delivered by both teams. But the overall sportsmanship displayed by players and fans was notable, and something that both programs can be proud of.

When it came to personnel management, Claro Capili was a by-the-book guy. Once, as managing director, the No. 2 job in Maui County government, he ran afoul a smart-alecky haole who was working as the county information and complaints officer.
Capili took the job very seriously since in the county's table of organization, only the mayor was above him in authority and responsibility. Then, as now, all the department heads were listed below the managing director.
In the late 1970s, there was one appointed position he hadn't figured on when he braced the info guy in a tiny ninth-floor office that had once been the mailroom.
The first run-in was by proxy. His secretary, Evelyn Sardinha, showed up one day. A visit from her was no little pleasure. She was a good-looking woman usually dressed in some sort of jumpsuit she'd designed and made herself. The suits were form-fitting with fancy trimmings and flared pant legs.
"Mr. Capili wants you to fill out a time sheet," she said.
The info guy smiled. "It's not that kind of job. I work when I need to work and don't when I don't." For the record, during most weeks the job required at least one or two 12-hour days. The info guy was a former reporter and editor used to working however long it took to get the story into print. Keeping track of the hours involved was never part of his job.
An aside: In one newsroom, management installed a time clock. It lasted two days. It's amazing what dumping a cup of coffee with milk and sugar will do to a machine.
"But, Mr. Capili wants you to fill out the time sheet."
A lack of hubris was not a strong point with the info guy. "No. If Claro has a problem with that, have him see the mayor. Take a look at the table of organization." The information and complaints office answered only to the mayor.
Evelyn shook her mane of black hair and went to report to her boss.
That was that, for a while.
It was midmorning. The info guy was banging out a press release on an electric typewriter. Claro appeared in the open door. He had a presence that was only partly due to his height. For a Filipino, he was uncommonly tall. Claro had a stern look on his face and a legal-sized, yellow pad of paper in one hand.
"I'd like to talk to you for a few minutes," he said.
"Sure. What's on your mind?"
"I'd like to get an idea of when you work," he said with a pen poised over the tablet. "When do you come to work?"
"Oh, anytime between 7 and 9."
He wrote that down.
"When do you go to lunch?"
"Oh, anytime between 11 and 1."
He wrote that down.
"How long do you take for lunch?"
"Oh, a half-hour to two hours or so."
He wrote that down.
"When do you go home?"
"Oh, anytime between 5 and 9."
While he was writing that down, the info guy couldn't resist adding: "And, if I can't keep those hours, I let Georgina (the info guy's nominal secretary) know where I am."
The women in the Mayor's Office generally liked the info guy, especially Georgina, who went on to become Gov. Linda Lingle's budget director after obtaining a master's in business administration. The liking was largely due to one simple fact.
In those days, the all-male administrators didn't type. They'd handwrite a letter, or whatever, and have a woman type it. (There were only a few word processors and no computers in the building. The word processors, a kind of simplified computer, all belonged to the women working in the attorneys' offices.)
The typed document would go back to the man who had drafted it. The guy would make changes and send it back to the woman to be retyped, sometimes more than once. The info guy did all of his own typing.
Claro stayed clear of the info guy after leaving the office with a nonplussed look on his face. The info guy tried not to laugh. Claro Capili did his job in the best possible way. He deserved respect, not only for his position in county government but also due to his groundbreaking work in politics.
Claro was among the first of Maui's Filipinos to understand how active voters, individually and in groups, can influence governmental policies.
Claro Capili died Friday at home in Kahului. He was 90 years old.

No I'm not embarrassed. Because its not a competition. Hubby and I are the same height, and probably close to the same weight. But I'm an above average size woman, and he's a below average size man. Our meals are probably on par, but he snacks on crap and I don't. On occasion our 9 or 12 year old will eat both of us under the table. As long as we're talking chicken thighs and not pizza slices, what's the big deal.
You look better than ever, and he's criticising your food choices? Bastard.
Gawd, I used to hate it when I would lunch with a certain coworker. She would wait to order last to make sure she ordered something smaller than eveyrone else, or order the same thing but be sure to eat less than you. Why do women have to turn a meal into a pissing contest?

Hi Team,
I had not accepted data geek challenge and had shared my story on SCN. I have accepted it now but the next mission 2/badge(Share your data geek knowledge is still pending)
Could you please suggest me how to get the badge? I have also shared my story.
I have completed all these steps given in the above document. But only thing is, I shared my story by writing a blog on SAP Lumira and shared it on twitter and later bookmared the Data geek challenge page. When I completed in the above link, I got a confirmation as Data geek team will contact soon but I haven't got any mail as such. Please help me on this.
Did you share your story after you received the first badge? -Sometimes just doing things in the correct order make the difference.
This week is SAPTechEd in Las Vegas, and so the SAP Lumira team is quite busy, as most of them are down in Vegas.
Let's monitor the status of your badge, and we'll give it a few days. If by next Monday you still haven't received the badge, we'll follow up with the SAP Lumira team!
In the meantime, perhaps you could make another entry?! It's great to see more than one entry from someone!
Hi Bijan,
No. I shared story first then shared it on twitter.
Fine I will wait till Monday. Had also sent few mails to the team. Looks like they are busy.
Thanks again for your reply.
I am looking for an interesting data set, let me see ;-)
We appreciate your patience!
You can always take a look at our Data Set List, maybe something there will peak your interest?
Hi Team,
This is still pending.
Nic Smith should be able to help us out with that!
Nic, if you haven't been following, we're hoping for a badge for our friend Vijay.
Hopefully that helps Vijay!
I would get Mitesh Patel involved. He is very knowledgeable in all matters related to the Data Geek Challenge.
I have a similar problem where i have shared data first and then accepted data Geek Challenge.
Can you please here to get my badge for the sharing the data Geek challenge.
Kind Regards,
I can understand the frustrations on not getting a Data Geek badge.
I see that you have your FIRST badge! Make sure that you've followed all the steps on the official data geek challenge page HERE.
Don't forget STEP 4, and STEP 5!! :-)
Also, please remember to post in the proper places. That includes doing a search - as per the rules of engagement. If you have a question that is unanswered, you should then create your own post, and not reply on one that's already been marked as completed.
For future reference, you should turn to the official pages of the Data Geek Challenge.
Hope you get your badges!

Survivors' Club
By Anna Knight, Club Administrator, and Ron McBride, Chief of Police (Ret.) and Law Enforcement Consultant
he IACP/DuPont Kevlar Survivors' Club® pays tribute to those deserving officers who have avoided serious or potentially fatal injuries through the use of any kind of body armor. This column is dedicated to sharing their experiences, in hopes of persuading others to wear their armor. If body armor has helped you or a member of your department survive such an accident or assault, please contact Anna Knight, Club Administrator, IACP/DuPont Kevlar Survivors' Club®, 5401 Jefferson Davis Highway, Richmond, VA 23234; 804-383-3853; 800-441-2746; fax: 804-383-2477; e-mail: (firstname.lastname@example.com).
The Survivors' Club application is also available on the IACP's Web site, (www.theiacp.org), under Awards/Survivors' Club.
After Pursuit Ends in Shootout, Trooper Is Saved by Vest Robert A. Miklich, then a trooper with the Pennsylvania State Police, was pursuing a suspect who crashed his vehicle into an earthen bank in a field and fled on foot. Miklich pursued on foot and overtook the suspect, who stopped, turned, and, at a distance of seven to 10 feet, fired a .38-caliber revolver twice.
The rounds struck Miklich in the left shoulder and the chest. The shoulder shot caused a penetrating wound, but the chest shot was stopped by the trooper's ballistic vest.
The impact knocked Miklich to his knees. He returned fire, hitting the suspect twice and knocking him down. Miklich reloaded his weapon, cautiously approached the shooter, disarmed him, and applied handcuffs. The shooter later died from his wounds.
Miklich suffered a backface signature injury from the bullet that was stopped by his vest. His shoulder wound required surgery to remove the bullet. He was released from the hospital after three days.
Miklich recovered from his wound and completed his career with the Pennsylvania State Police. Today he is a detective with the district attorney's office in Northampton County.
Constable's Vest Stops Shotgun Pellets at Massacre SceneConstables Paul G. Deorksen and Mike Kukolj of the London, Ontario, Police Service responded after dispatchers received an emergency call from a child who reported that her mother had been assaulted by an intruder. As Deorksen climbed the front steps of the residence, he heard a loud bang and felt a wave of heat in his arm and back. He had been shot.
Deorksen jumped from the porch and landed on his hands and knees in the driveway. He rolled to his back and returned fire to suppress the assault. Deorksen moved to cover and held a position to isolate the shooter until he was evacuated for medical care.
A fire erupted in the residence immediately after Constable Deorksen was shot. Members of the London Police Service emergency response team made entry where they found a massacre. Dead were a 37-year-old mother of two; a daughter, 13; and a son, 5. The shooter, a family acquaintance, died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Deorksen had been struck by a blast from a 12-guage shotgun loaded with birdshot. Many of the pallets entered his arm and shoulder, but much of the blast was stopped by his body armor. He was hospitalized and required surgery to remove some of the shotgun pallets.
Three other members of the London Police Service were injured: Sergeant Dean Streefkerk and Constable Andy Bakker suffered from smoke inhalation, and Kukolj suffered a gunshot wound. All officers recovered from their injuries.
Armor Protects Deputy Involved in Head-On CollisionWhile working the evening watch during a busy Fourth of July weekend, Deputy Larry B. Zydek of the King County Sheriff's Office, in Maple Valley, Washington, turned his patrol car onto a state highway and was struck head-on by a loaded gravel truck.
The force of the impact demolished the patrol vehicle and pinned Zydek in the wreckage. It took fire rescue personnel, using hydraulic cutting tools and jacks, a half-hour to extricate him.
Zydek awoke two days later in a Seattle hospital. He had no memories of the crash, but he had extensive injuries, including a broken leg and hand and a shattered ankle.
Physicians told Zydek his air bag, seat belt, and protective body armor had saved his life. Had he not been wearing a ballistic vest with a trauma plate, he would have sustained serious damage to his upper torso and vital organs.
Recovery for Deputy Zydek has been slow; he has undergone multiple surgeries and painful physical therapy and spent months in a wheelchair. A year after the crash, Zydek is now walking and has returned to modified duty for rehabilitation. He is committed to making a full recovery and resuming normal patrol duties. ■

New Cubs Quizzes and NFL Playoff Odds
First a word from our sponsors and for you degenerate gamblers...
The Super Bowl lines are out and the Colts (3/1) lead the way, with the New Orleans Saints (4/1), San Diego Chargers (9/2) and the Minnesota Vikings (15/2) following close behind. The experts have made their picks, what are you waiting for? Now is the time to check out the latest Super Bowl Lines, make your Super Bowl XLVI pick and show everyone who the real expert is before it's too late.
You got to pay the bills.
Here's a good time to remind everyone of The Bear Truth, the Bears blog that I and a few readers contribute on an occasional basis. I do like the Colts this year to win it all, on the other hand, I got 3 of 4 games wrong in the first round so pay no attention to me.
Also if you need some time wasters, I've created two more quizzes on sporcle - Cubs Top Draft Picks and Cubs Playoff Opponents. At some point, I'll add all of these somewhere on the site.

"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.
Ramos torn ACL
Sure, its not about his record.
Do you start him Sunday or not?
@jonmorosi Pitchers w/ sub-2.00 ERA in year of 185+ IP this century: Pedro '00, Clemens '05, Kershaw '13/'14, Arrieta '15, Greinke '15, Hendricks '16.
Yeah -- that would be rough for him. But, Monty is getting people out, he's a lefty and he has experience working out of the bullpen. Hammel? None of the above.
even if he's not starting, abandoning hammel would be a bit of a 'screw you.' i think it might be -monty +hammel, but it's speculation.
either way, someone's gonna be disappointed.
Joe said he is leaning towards 11 pitchers and 14 position players.
- 4 starters, Chapman, Rondon, Strop, CJ, Wood, Grimm, Monty. No dice for Cahill or Smith.
- 3 catchers, Rizz, Zo, Addy, KB, Javy, Heyward, Fowler, Soler, Coghlan, TLS and then Sczcur over Almora?
Cubs 3B Jason Vosler made two really bad throws on consecutive AB in the 8th. Fortunately the game was no longer in doubt at the time
The first one was a one-hop lob that allowed the batter to reach base on an infield single, and the second was air-mailed so far over the first-baseman's head that it went over the fence and landed in Field #4.
E-MAN: Despite the HR, Donnie Dewees is really more of a slash hitter (the HR was an opposite-field line-drive) who can accumulate lots of doubles & triples. He's also a good bunter and can get on base that way, too. Although he was thrown out trying to steal in the game, he's actually a good base-stealer and baserunner.
Defensively he has plus-range and tracks fly balls OK, so he can play CF, but he has a rag arm that requires the middle infielders to go out further into CF to make relays.
I don't know how many of you remember Bobby Knoop, who played 2B for the Angels, White Sox, and Royals back in the day, but he is a coach-emeritus for the Angels, and works with the infielders at Minor League Camp, Extended Spring Training, and Instructs. He's pretty spry for a 77-year old, and he really knows his shit.
With a big lead, Chapman was throwing sliders and changeups, something he's reluctant to do in a save situation. (Len and Jim covered this.)
Maybe they have a bad owner, I don't know, but they still have players and fans and a franchise, all devastated by this loss of life. Plus, everybody who follows baseball is a fan of a guy like this. It's why I used the word tragedy, which other people throw around but I try to be careful with.
I'm at an age where I remember old incidents better than recent ones, but I have to go back to Herb Score for something as disturbing.
That was Dee Gordon's only HR this year. Wow.

Deeplinks Blog posts about Patents
Imagine if the inventor of the Segway claimed to own "any thing that moves in response to human commands." Or if the inventor of the telegraph applied for a patent covering any use of electric current for communication. Absurdly overbroad claims like these would not be allowed, right? Unfortunately, the Patent Office does not do a good job of policing overly broad claims. August's Stupid Patent of the Month, U.S. Patent No. 8,788,090, is a stark example of how these claims promote patent trolling.
In the wake of the Supreme Court's June 2014 decision in Alice v. CLS Bank, most courts have been quickly and efficiently getting rid of patents that improperly claim "abstract ideas." In Alice, the Supreme Court held that "abstract ideas," without more, were unpatentable under 35 U.S.C. § 101. According to one source, at least 150 patents have had claims invalidated as "abstract" since Alice. Those accused of infringing these invalid patents have regularly filed motions to dismiss at the outset of a case, having the issue heard before too much time and energy is spent. Courts have, for the large part, embraced these "Alice motions" and invalidated abstract patents as soon as practicable.
Back in 2011, This American Life toured an office building in Marshall, Texas, and found eerie hallways of empty offices that serve as the 'headquarters' of patent trolls. For many, that was the first introduction to the strange world of the Eastern District of Texas, its outsized role in patent litigation and especially its effective support of the patent troll business model. Trolls love the Eastern District for its plaintiff-friendly rules, so they set up paper corporations in the district as an excuse to file suit there. Meanwhile, defendants find themselves dragged to a distant, inconvenient, and expensive forum that often has little or no connection to the dispute.
PSA: Shipping and Transit, LLC and Electronic Communication Technologies LLC Are Not New Players To the Patent Troll Game
Have you recently received a patent demand letter or been hit by a lawsuit from either "Shipping and Transit, LLC" or "Electronic Communication Technologies, LLC"? Despite their current SEO-unfriendly names that make it difficult to find information, we want you to know that there's lots of information out there related to these trolls, just under different names.
It is important that those on the receiving end of these trolls' patent demands can find the resources they need. To that end, more information useful against both of these trolls can be found by searching for ArrivalStar (instead of "Shipping and Transit, LLC") or Eclipse IP (instead of "Electronic Communication Technologies LLC"). And even though the names are different, the documents linked below show that for practical purposes the new trolls are closely related to the old trolls.

Balloon Flights Over London
A History of Balloon Flights over LondonThe first ascent of man to the skies was made in a hot air balloon from Paris on 21 November 1783. Such was the progress of science that just a few weeks later a superior balloon design using hydrogen gas flew from Paris for longer, further and higher. London's long association with balloon flights began with an Italian: Vincenzo Lunardi. He was the first man to fly from London and indeed from England on 15 September 1784 in a balloon filled with hydrogen gas. He took off from the Artillery Grounds near Moorfields and flew in the company of a cat, a dog and a caged pigeon to Ware in Hertfordshire. Following his success, balloon flights became a regular occurrence over the skies of London for over 150 years until the outbreak of World War II.
The celebrated London balloonist Charles Green was born at 92 Goswell Road, on 31 January 1785. His first ascent on the 19 July 1821, was in a balloon filled with coal gas. Sponsored by the owners of Vauxhall Gardens near Vauxhall Bridge, on 7 November 1836, he set a major long distance record in their balloon "Royal Vauxhall". He flew with Robert Hollond, the MP for Hastings and Thomas Monck Mason, to Wielburg in Germany. Taking off just after midday and flying through the night, they landed at 7am after their 18 hour journey had covered a distance of 480 miles (770 km), a record which remained unbroken until 1907. By the time he retired in 1852, Green had flown in a balloon more than 500 times, many of those ascents being from parks and sites in London.

Albuquerque police recruitment post raises eyebrowsUPDATED 10:33 PM MDT Apr 29, 2014
Albuquerque's troubled police department has already had a hard time recruiting new officers.Video Transcript
TROUBLED POLICE DEPARTMENT, ALREADY HAS A HARD TIME RECRUITING NEW OFFICERS. NOW - ACTION 7 NEWS REPORTER LAURA THOREN EXPOSES A SHOCKING MESSAGE ON THE RECRUITMENT UNIT'S FACEBOOK PAGE. IT'S A STORY YOU'LL SEE ONLY ON 7. IT'S POSSIBLY THE WORLD'S WORST JOB DESCRIPTION. "you work all hours of the day and night, and on your wedding anniversary, and on Christmas." "people curse you, you can't curse back. People hate you, you can't hate back." "if you stop for five minutes for lunch, you're goofing off." AND YET - THIS IS HOW ALBUQUERQUE POLICE WERE TRYING TO ATTRACT POTENTIAL OFFICERS. THOSE STATEMENTS WERE PART OF A LONG POST ON THE FACEBOOK PAGE OF A-P-D'S RECRUITMENT UNIT. I found it when I wanted to learn more about Albuquerque police hiring practices typing First I went to the official albuquerque police website click clicked on join the albuquerque police department, and then went to their facebook link. THE POST WAS FRONT AND CENTER. JUST LIKE THESE OFFICERS SAY THEY ARE ALL THE TIME - "you have to solve major crimes in a day, or you're not doing your job." "pay isn't great. Hours are ridiculous. And you probably won't get a summer vacation until you're on the job for 20 years." THE POST WAS DATED MARCH 31ST--2 WEEKS BEFORE THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE ISSUED THE FINDINGS OF ITS INVESTIGATION INTO APD. THE FEDS MENTIONED IN THEIR REPORT "It is imperative that the department continue to build on these reforms and improve training, recruitment, and internal review mechanisms." JUST THIS WEEK ACTION 7 NEWS SPOKE TO THE NEW "COMMANDER" IN CHARGE OF RECRUITMENT FOR APD. HE TOLD US THEN -- we're gonna hit the streets, do grass roots, have a multi-faceted approach to recruiting quality individuals. OUR CALLS TODAY FOR COMMENT WERE NOT RETURNED...BUT NOT LONG AFTER WE MADE THOSE CALLS, THE POST VANISHED FROM THE FACEBOOK PAGE. EVEN THOUGH THE POST WAS TAKEN DOWN - THE DAMAGE MAY ALREADY BE DONE. IT WAS UP THERE FOR MORE THAN 4 WEEKS. AND IT WAS SHARED MORE THAN 600 TIMES. THE POST SAID IT WAS COPIED FROM THE F-O-P...THE FRATERNAL ORDER OF POLICE. WE DID A GOOGLE SEARCH, AND FOUND A MODIFIED VERSION OF THE SAME POST ON THE WEBSITES OF TWO F.O.P. CHAPTERS.

Natural Law: Alive and Kicking? A Look at the Constitutional Morality of Sexual Privacy in Ireland
Rory O'Connell
Ulster University - Transitional Justice Institute
Ratio Juris, Vol. 9, No. 258, 1996
This article argues that judges make use of political morality when deciding constitutional cases. In doing this they often draw out the implications of political decisions already made by politicians and the people, though sometimes arriving at decisions which may surprise politicians. The use of political morality is examined through the lens of a series of IRish decisions on abortion in the 1980s and 1990s.
Keywords: constitutional interpretation, human rights, abortion, judicial activism
