Follow the action of Friday's MLB playoff games with tweets from the writers of HardballTalk. The day starts with Game 2 of the Pirates-Cardinals series, followed by the opener of Red Sox-Rays, the second installment of Dodgers-Braves and the first of A's-Tigers. Expect instant analysis, opinion and some laughs.
Cardinals will bring back Mike Matheny for the 2017 season
The Cardinals went from winning 100 games last season to 82 entering Wednesday evening's game, and they might not even make the playoffs. Still, the organization will bring back manager Mike Matheny for the 2017 season, Jose de Jesus Ortiz of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Owner Bill DeWitt, Jr. said, "Mike's done a really good job for us. There's no thought that we're going to go in any different direction."
GM John Mozeliak also expressed his support, saying, "Mike takes a lot of heat, and I've defended him and I will continue to. I really feel like some of the things that we're dealing with aren't fair to put on the manager."
Mozeliak continued, "I do feel like all of us are always held accountable for what we do here, so there's nobody excluded from that. But having said that, I don't look at him as someone that we are where we are because of that."
Matheny has received criticism for his bullpen usage, but the Cardinals have only 15 blown saves as a team, the fourth-lowest total in baseball this season.
Pete Mackanin on Phillies' bullpen: "Somebody else has to [bleeping] step up."
The Phillies' bullpen led to yet another loss on Tuesday. Severino Gonzalez, Luis Garcia, Joely Rodriguez, and David Hernandez combined to allow six runs in five innings, allowing the Braves to come back and win 7-6 after falling behind 6-0 after the first two innings.
The game prior, the Phillies' bullpen surrendered 14 runs in four innings in a 17-0 loss to the Mets. The game before that, the bullpen yielded four runs in four innings, nearly squandering the Phillies' 10-0 lead after four innings. And last Thursday, the Phillies had taken an 8-6 lead in the top of the 11th, but Edubray Ramos served up a walk-off three-run home run to Asdrubal Cabrera. It's been a tough month.
Manager Pete Mackanin ripped the bullpen when speaking to the media after Tuesday's game. Via Jim Salisbury of CSN Philly:
Neris was going to close for us. I thought about using him with two outs in the eighth. But, at some point, somebody else has to do a (bleeping) job. Somebody else has to (bleeping) step up. In two games now, every reliever I brought in has given up a (bleeping) run. That's unheard of.
The Phillies currently own the fourth-worst bullpen ERA in baseball at 4.97. Only the Rockies (5.12), Reds (5.07), and Diamondbacks (4.98) have been worse.
In fairness to the bullpen, aside from Jeanmar Gomez (who lost his job as closer earlier this month) and free agent signee David Hernandez, the bullpen is intentionally comprised of young, inexperienced pitchers as the Phillies are still rebuilding. If the Phillies were aiming for a playoff spot, it would be one thing, but the struggles are to be expected when one throws 24-year-olds into the deep end.

BOE Says Upside Risk to Inflation Has Eased as Stimulus Mulled
The Bank of England said upside risks to consumers' inflation expectations eased in recent months, as it edges closer to restarting stimulus to strengthen the economy against the threats from the euro-area debt crisis.
"The upside risk from inflation expectations may have receded a little relative to autumn 2011" and the risk from longer-term expectations "appears to have not crystallized," Rashmi Harimohan of the Monetary Assessment Division said in an article in the central bank's Quarterly Bulletin published today. "There are also few signs that past inflation expectations have fed into wages."
Data yesterday showed inflation slowed to 2.8 percent in May, the weakest since December 2009, which may ease resistance among policy makers to add to bond purchases. The central bank will begin auctions in a new liquidity operation later today, while it will also publish the minutes of its June 6-7 policy meeting, showing how officials voted when they kept their bond-purchase target at 325 billion pounds ($510 billion).
"The outlook for inflation is uncertain, but the Monetary Policy Committee judges that inflation is likely to remain above target throughout 2012, before falling back during 2013," Harimohan said. Still, "some risk remains" to expectations as long as inflation is above the central bank's 2 percent target.
Since the June meeting, policy maker Adam Posen said that more asset purchases could aid the economy, and that he was "too optimistic" when he abandoned a push for more stimulus in April. Bank of England Governor Mervyn King said on June 14 that the case for loosening policy is "growing" as the euro-area debt crisis casts "a long shadow over our own recovery."
Emergency Liquidity
The central bank said yesterday its first auction in its new Extended Collateral Term Repo Facility will be 5 billion pounds of six-month funds. Bids may be submitted from 10:30 a.m.
King said last week policy makers will activate the facility, first announced in December, to boost liquidity available to banks amid "dark clouds" from Europe. The ECTR operation will provide sterling against the widest range of collateral and is open to all banks and building societies that are signed up to its Discount Window Facility.
In a separate article in today's bulletin, the central bank said investor confidence fell in the second quarter because of increased concerns about the euro area, where Spain this month sought aid for its banks, becoming the fourth member nation to seek a bailout.
"Financial-market sentiment deteriorated markedly over the review period amid renewed concerns about the vulnerabilities associated with the indebtedness and competitiveness of several euro-area economies," the Bank of England said.
Rate Forecasts
The central bank also said that market participants pushed back forecasts for the timing of an increase in the benchmark interest rate and "placed some weight" on the possibility of a cut in the rate below the current record low of 0.5 percent.
"Contacts attributed the moves largely to a combination of weaker U.K. economic data and the implications for the U.K. economy of growing concerns about the outlook in the euro area," it said.
In an article on U.K. productivity, the Bank of England said it is "likely that, alongside substantial spare capacity within the labor market, a margin of spare capacity remains within companies."
The central bank said in another report that its so-called quantitative-easing program, through which its buys U.K. government bonds, "appears to be less well understood than the setting of interest rates." While 26 percent of respondents to a survey thought the main aim of QE was to increase confidence, just 9 percent thought it was to stop inflation falling below target, while 36 percent said they didn't know what the program's primary objective was.
"The MPC has agreed that explaining QE should continue to be an important area for the bank's communication strategy," the central bank said.
It also said that satisfaction with the way it sets interest rates has fallen since the onset of the financial crisis, "but remains positive." That may partly reflect "ongoing concerns about the economic outlook," it said.

XBOX 360 SlimPosted: Jul 20, 2010 12:00AM PST by Crimson_Fox
I just bought my first Xbox 360 July 4th. It being the Slim. It works fine its quiet but real quiet after u install a disc to the hardrive. The Black finish though sucks. It gets dirty so fast. About 2 days later I was already looking into buying aa skin for my 360 slim.I've been a ps3 gamer until now. I have to say 360 ftw.
HohummmmmmmmPosted: Jun 15, 2010 12:00AM PST by Weirdwolf72
Sorry MS, I got burned with your Xbox360 version 1. Unless the price is right, I'm not touching your black slim with a 10 foot pole.
'bout da 360 slim...Posted: Jun 15, 2010 12:00AM PST by Super_Souvlaki
I already have an PS3, 360 and Wii... IMO the "slim" is just an 360 with a few less problems, I'm not in the mood to spend my hard earned money on this console. I hope that the normal 360 uses Kinekt too...
What I really want:
I want a new generation consoles with better graphics (like a movie), innovative 3D features and the possibility for bigger online games. Not just another 360 :[
I will say that...Posted: Jun 14, 2010 12:00AM PST by Lord_Viczerez
The 360 redesign looks much better than the job Sony did with the PS3. The original was, and is, an amazing looking machine, the Slim - not so much.
Double meh...Posted: Jun 14, 2010 12:00AM PST by GenesisDoes
I will admit, Risings sword mechanics looked glorious. Pretty spiff graphics too. Now to get my ass glued for Nintendo's conference.
Yeesh.Posted: Jun 14, 2010 12:00AM PST by SaviorMachine
Dismal showing from MS. They had such a powerful buzz each E3 of this generation, then in 2009 they trailed off a bit, and now... well, the show's not over, but man.
@ JrayPosted: Jun 14, 2010 12:00AM PST by Bullseye76
I disagree... For what it is capable of, I agree that Kinect hasn't even come close to tapping into it's true potential. Having said that the hardware is brand new! Look at the quality of games from Xbox 360's launch? None of them were extremely impressive compared to the games we have now. Kinect is the same way, we are on the ground floor. Nothing was spectacular, but there are some cool applications. The voice activated and controller-less navigation is amazing, that alone is a huge step in the right direction. Other things while aimed at the younger gamers, weren't spectacular game of the year material, but were still interesting in concept.
There is a lot to still be done with Kinect, but the ideas they are pitching seem like a great step in the right direction. It amazes me at how negative people can be when something doesn't specifically cater to their idea of what it SHOULD be. Give it time and I am willing to bet that Kinect will evolve into something that everyone can find a use for.
I was impressed with the conference, especially after watching EA's bore fest. MS did a great job in keeping the talking to a minimum and keeping the demonstrations/gameplay flowing.
ReachPosted: Jun 14, 2010 12:00AM PST by KillZoneGoon87
The only thing I wanna see is more Halo reach gameplay and some Gears 3. The new slimed down 360 was leaked so I already knew it was going to be announced. Kinect I think will sell more than move.

It's been a while since I've done a review of a writing company — I've chosen to focus on other kinds of work at home opportunities lately since I've more or less stopped freelance writing myself and also because I already have so many writing jobs listed here.
But, I've been seeing a lot of chatter in forums about writing and editing for Pure Content, so I decided to find out what I could for you and get it posted.
What is Pure Content?
Pure Content is a "web content creation company" that employs over 1000 writers to create unique content for people who need a lot of it. They've been around since 2006, and they used to be known as Delegate2.
How much does Pure Content pay?
People who work for this company have to sign non-disclosure agreements, so they are rather tight-lipped about how much they earn. But from what I understand, pay is similar to what you might receive at Textbroker and it varies depending on the project you are doing.
Some projects pay more while others pay less. The company pays monthly via Paypal or bank direct deposit. You have to submit an invoice each month in order to get your money.
Is Pure Content open to people living outside the United States?
Yes. You can write or edit for Pure Content as long as you live in the US, UK, Canada, New Zealand, or Australia and English is your first language.
What determines whether or not you are hired?
When you apply, you'll be given writing and editing tests. You only need to take the test for the position you want. If you're from the US, keep in mind that some of the work you'll do will have to be in UK English, so you might want to study up on some of the language differences.
I've read that Pure Content sends out a summary of some of the more common differences in words, so this should also help. When you do your test, you might also have to know some UK English there so read all the instructions you receive very carefully before you begin so you don't mistakenly use US English when UK English is what's called for.
How do people like working for Pure Content?
I'm mostly reading very good things about both writing and editing for Pure Content. This thread on the WAHM forum is pretty revealing. The thread is titled "Delegate2," but as I mentioned above, this is Pure Content's old name, so the thread is about the correct company.
Editing For Pure Content
If you've ever wanted to apply for an editing position but could not because you don't have the experience, you should definitely consider trying it out with Pure Content. This company does not require that you have a background in editing before hiring you. If you do well on the editing test, you can start. And if you do editing for Pure Content, you will then be able to apply for many of the other editing and proofreading jobs out there requiring experience!
Want to apply at Pure Content?
Just send an email to email@example.com to let them know whether or not you want to test to become a writer or an editor. From what I've read, they will send you both tests regardless of which one you ask for, so you don't have to take them both.
Go here to explore the company website if you are curious.
Looking to earn more money as a writer?
There is definitely more money to be made out there as a writer than what Pure Content, or other similar content sites, can provide for you. If that's what you're looking for, you should really consider going into business for yourself so you can set your own rates and have the freedom to find high-paying clients.
Elna Cain, a regular writer here at Real Ways to Earn, has created a high-quality eCourse, Write Your Way to $1K, that teaches exactly how to do this. The course is based on her own experience and strategies in becoming a stay at home, work at home, well-paid freelance writer.

The Sql Paradox
Way back in the day we wrote programs that used files, mainly flat files on disk, often on tape, usually sequential or indexed.
If we wanted to change a file layout, we just changed the program; if there was data to preserve, we had to write a one-off program to copy the old data to the new format.
When we wanted to test programs, we could redirect the input and output to different files and compare the results using a file compare utility. Several people could be testing against the same logical file by using different physical files.
Now we have SQL, which lets you change table layouts with a simple one command, usually they deal with any old data. You can replicate, snapshot and rollback to allow repeated testing.
Then we have DataBaseAdministrator
s, so that when you want to change a file you have to send an email to them with your SQL, and they will run it when they have time.
You can't have a test DB each because the DBAs can't support all those DBs. Everyone develops and tests against the same DB. You can't start your tests from the same state, you can't test the SQL you have to send to a DBA because it may screw up everyone else's testing.
This is why I'd choose Access over Oracle for anything where I could get away with its terrible scaling. --
There's nothing paradoxical about SQL, only about the management traditions that have grown up around using it. Reasonably powerful boxes are cheap enough that there's little excuse for developers to not have their own development database they can play with however they like - just another form of
, I suppose. (Oh, I'm forgetting that hardware isn't powerful enough to waste cycles on conveniences for developers these days; I should give you a disclaimer that this is, in Constin's expert view, a ridiculous and unnecessary overhead. Consider yourself warned.)
Indeed it's not the technology itself, it's entirely the culture that goes with it. The paradoxical aspect is that despite the fact the SQL is much easier to refactor than a bunch of files (sequential and indexed), the cultural baggage that goes with it makes it much harder.
The Oracle way seems to encourage a very waterfall approach and over-specialization so that management think that developers should not have DBA skills as it's a waste of time and they might do things they shouldn't. In our shop, the DBAs have some of the air of the Stazi. --
Alternative: PersonalOracle
, on your PC, with a centralized
Oracle instance controlled by the DBA.
We knew we could do this on a recent project (year 2000), but lacked the guts to do it. :-(
I'd love to do that, but my place has caught the DBA meme, so that the DBAs wouldn't let it happen and management doesn't think the developers would have the DBA skills to admin their own DBs. Its not really a technical pronlem, more of a cultural thing.
[I think the title,
, sucks; anyone want to change it? --
? TheTroubleWithSql
? --
As I understand it, it's standard operating procedure for Oracle to grant unlimited PersonalOracle
licenses for use within organizations that fork over the
big bucks
for enterprise production Oracle servers. However, it also seems common for those organizations to
anyone from using PersonalOracle
, as they know they can't manage PC databases centrally, and they seem to feel that they can't trust their people to be knowledgeable and trustworthy.
Personally, if I thought that some of my employees weren't sufficiently knowledgeable and trustworthy, I'd just fire them. (...or train them! ;-) But maybe there's something wrong with me. ;-> --
is still quite combersome. What is needed is a standardized language that works in both a nimble MS-Access-like tool and
RDBMS. That way, one could scale up and down and all around.
is the biggest problem.
The standard answer to
, as for
s and other tools, is that we don't expect enough of our vendors. If databases and user interfaces had been invented via
, our testage would merely extend these systems.
Instead, we slowly chip rocks into wheels, one at a time... --
I can't imagine doing database development where everyone shares one set of tables. Each developer needs his or her own database account and tables. (A separate Oracle install is nice but not necessary.) --
But if the schema design is still dynamic, this could create some nasty change propagation issues. I agree that the
view of RDBMS is problematic in many scenarios and wish there were more product options, such as a small-footprint DB that could be traded up to the
version when needed. Related:
Funny, I never had this problem. Part of the install scripts made a set of databases and could fill them with test data. The names of the databases could be changed, so that I had a different set of databases than you did. This did not require DBA intervention, because development owned its own server. You had to deal with DBA and all the necessary bureaucracy when you got out of development and wanted to send a copy to QA, however... --
To me, there is an emerging role in development teams: the developer/DBA, or development-support DBA. This can be a developer with DBA skills, or a DBA with development skills. They are there to keep the team agile, to ensure development instances are taken care of, and to promote/teach/coach good database programming practices in the context of the trade-offs for this particular softwaer system. If one is missing this role, I think it leads to a general "anti-database" mindset that seems a bit too common among
teams. --
The DBA is like a "consistency cop". Some cops are good and some not so good. Some precincts are swamped and some are not. It would be interesting though to see how larger organizations would work with
where tables and columns can potentially by created at whim just by "using" them, reminiscent of associative arrays. I'm not saying it would necessarily be better, but it would change the dynamics of change-impact management.
would probably be better for intermediate or custom local processing of data copied from the "master" or "enterprise" tables from a formal RDBMS for specialized uses. Specific departments often want "local" abstractions of the data that fit their view of things and only their view of things in order to simplify queries and usage for them. It's a matter of the right tool for the job. (And
can theoretically incrementally "lock down" requirements such as validation {types} and existence as needed.) --top

American Profile Hometown Cookbook: A Celebration of America's Tableby Mary Carter Susan Fisher Candace Floyd
"In this extraordinary cookbook, you'll find traditional American favorites with a unique twist alongside ethnic creations from around the world. Also included are helpful tips from American Profile's test kitchen as well as 30 articles on hometown festivals and fairs across the nation that give you a sneak peek into the lives of the ordinary citizens that make up hometown America. Whether it's a simple soup for the family or a full meal for visitors, the American Profile Hometown Cookbook has just the right recipe to make any gathering a special occasion."
Boys and Girls in No Man's Landby Susan Fisher
Boys and Girls in No Man's Land examines how the First World War entered the lives and imaginations of Canadian children. Drawing on educational materials, textbooks, adventure tales, plays, and Sunday-school papers, this study explores the role of children in the nation's war effort.Susan R. Fisher also considers how the representation of the war has changed in Canadian children's literature. During the war, the conflict was invariably presented as noble and thrilling, but recent Canadian children's books paint a very different picture. What once was regarded a morally uplifting struggle, rich in lessons of service and sacrifice, is now presented as pointless slaughter. This shift in tone and content reveals profound changes in Canadian attitudes not only towards the First World War but also towards patriotism, duty, and the shaping of the moral citizen.

Most recently assistant director for the Kent District Library system, Cheryl Garrison is now taking over as manager in Byron Township. She succeeds Michelle Clark, who she said recently got married and moved away when her husband took a job transfer.
After being in central administration for 16 years, Garrison said she is excited about having daily contact with library visitors again. Prior to her most recent job, she started with the district as manager of the Walker branch.
"What I'm looking forward to is direct patron contact," she said. "When you're in administration, you do a lot of meetings and a lot of paperwork. I'm looking forward to talking to kids, to helping people.
"I really miss that."
Garrison said that of all 18 branches in the Kent system, "Byron Township is one of the more family-friendly."
"There are a lot of kids in that library, and the staff there are wonderful," she added.
She expects to add more programs for children, as well as expand offerings for teens and adults. She'd also like to see the library get more involved in the community.
"I would like to see the library … have a float in the (Byron Days) parade, maybe have some programs going on at the farmers market – kind of get outside the library walls," she said. "People who use the library love the library, but there are still a lot of people in Byron who don't know about the library and I want to change that."
Of all Byron Township residents, 58 percent have a library card, she said. Byron Township residents checked out 387,445 items in 2011.
"The number of items checked out has increased every year and the library is busier than ever," she said.
Garrison arrives in Byron Township in time to help oversee what she calls a transition to a "Dewey-Free" non-fiction collection – Dewey Decimal System-free, that is – around the end of August.
"You know if you go in the library and you're looking for a nonfiction book and it's all in numerical order according to the Dewey Decimal System, the general public doesn't know what those numbers are," Garrison said. "We're going to go to more word-based, so cookbooks will be under cookbooks and business under business, and so the public will be able to find things.
"It's a new trend in libraries, and it makes sense – especially for us because we're more of a browsing library than a research library."
Of course, the new easier system won't come without a little pain. All of the nonfiction books – about 7,000 of them – have to be pulled off the shelves and relabeled. Garrison said Byron Township is about the sixth branch to be converted to the new cataloging system. Eventually all of the Kent libraries will be changed over.
New system aside, even as she immerses herself in Byron Township, Garrison hopes to keep her finger on the pulse of the bigger picture.
"I would like to … make sure I'm aware of the trends going on in public libraries," she said. "There's always something new – so many changes in technology, new formats that are coming out, e-books are huge. So always keeping up with new trends is something I really think is important."
And being in Byron Township will help with that, she noted.
"I'll be out in the public so I'll have firsthand knowledge of what new formats people are asking for, what they are having difficulty with, and keeping that little slice of communication open so we can give the best possible service we can to people."

Huge Changes in Nursing Career and Life!
Ok, new changes in my world. I was living and working at a permanent job in Prescott, AZ pursing a flight career. Unfortunately that door sometimes opened and then closed again. It has been quite an adventure. I decided to dabble in the world of Travel Nursing. I am currently living on the beach in North Carolina and it is absolutely beautiful.
It is quite a different world for this desert rat. When I applied to the flight nurse programs, the one I wanted to get into stated that I need to get to a larger system and experience some trauma and do some ride-a-longs. I've completed one a ride along and I am now working at a busy level two trauma center that lets me play. If anybody is considering travel nursing, I highly recommend it. It gives you the opportunity to make good money and see America. My wife and I, traveling on our way out here, decided to stop in Monroe and see the Duck Dynasty place and visit family in Georgia. Not to mention, Christie and I were able to spent a lot of quality time together.
I've been thinking about Travel Nurse companies… These companies are making a LOT of cash off my labor. I'm wondering if I can find a way to make/write my own contracts to these companies. This is just a thought :). We'll see!
My buddy and I opened a business January first and we have been making quite some cash at this endeavor. At least enough to take both of our wives to Europe. It has been a fun endeavor allowing me to take my wife across the country. We've purchased cars off Ebay and resold them and bought and resold cell phones. Its a fun side job that has proven fairly lucrative.. I think to be truly successful, I need to find new ways to make cash :). I love hearing ideas and supporting other entrepreneurs. It does not have to be the nursing field. Feel free to write me philATphilschafer.me

Renewing a tradition that makes veterans' advocacy a year-round priority, four active and former military personnel are providing front-line assistance to their fellow students at Pennsylvania College of Technology.
Among employees of the college's Financial Aid Office are Chester M. Beaver, Army (retired), a human services student from Williamsport; Sarah E. Ruhlman, a web and interactive media major from New Oxford, serving in the Coast Guard; Israel M. Spence, a former Marine from Richfield, majoring in the heating, ventilation and air conditioning technology; and Douglas L. Weber, of Linesville, enrolled in electronics and computer engineering technology, an active-duty Navy veteran still serving in the Naval Reserve.
All were hired under the Department of Veterans Affairs Work-Study Program, helping Joann Kay, Penn College's coordinator of veterans affairs, as she ensures that qualified students obtain their deserved education benefits, financial aid and additional veterans assistance.

From left are veterans affairs work-study students Sarah E. Ruhlman, New Oxford; Chester M. Beaver, Williamsport; and Douglas L. Weber, Linesville. Missing from photos is Israel M. Spence, Richfield.
"Work-Study students bring a wealth of military knowledge and experience to our military/veteran students, in addition to the VA education benefits," Kay said. "They exemplify the support the college has for its military/veteran population and promote camaraderie among its ranks. We could not serve our military/veteran students at the level we do currently without their assistance."
Employment and academic guidance are just a few of the ways in which Penn College supports the veterans within its campus community.
The institution has been named by the publication "G.I. Jobs" to its list of Military Friendly Schools for the past five years, a designation reserved for the top 15 percent of colleges, universities and trade schools that recruit and retain student veterans.
For the past several years, Penn College has presented its graduating servicemen and women with honor cords - appropriately colored red, white and blue - to adorn their commencement gowns. In what generally sparks some of the most sustained applause at each of the college's five annual graduation ceremonies, President Davie Jane Gilmour asks veterans to stand and be recognized by the Community Arts Center audience.

| You
are in the MOST Phase I website (1994-2003).
The MOST Phase II website is available at: www.unesco.org/shs/most.
Newsletter No. 9 December 2000.
the topics:
|Dear friends and members of the MOST Circumpolar Coping Processes
A brief, but hopefully informative newsletter from the MOST CCPP secretariat. First and foremost I would like to use the opportunity to express my grateful thanks to all of you in the MOST CCPP network. Since I started in January in my position as Research Officer, it had been inspiring and engaging to work with you, and I look forward to co-operate with each of you in the future as well. And simultaneously, a happy holiday for each of you, and on behalf of the project, all the best wishes for the New Year, jochen
15.-19. November 2000 the MOST CCPP arranged in close co-operation with the Department of Geography at the University of Joensuu, Finland the workshop: "WHETHER, HOW AND WHY REGIONAL POLICIES ARE WORKING IN CONCERT WITH COPING STRATEGIES LOCALLY". During the four days of the workshop 35 participants discussed a total of 26 presentations from 32 contributors. And, according to the discussions and the feedback from the participants, the workshop once again showed the vitality and the relevance of our research network. More information at http://www.uit.no/MostCCPP/
As announced in earlier newsletters, the STORFJORD CONFERENCE of the MOST CCPP will take place 6. 10. June 2001 at the municipality of Storfjord, close to Tromsø, Norway. The conference will follow up the 1998 user conference at Isafjørdur, Iceland, and users from all the MOST CCPP localities together with the researchers will discuss/evaluate their experience with the work of the MOST CCPP network. In many ways this conference will finalise and conclude phase I of the MOST CCPP project. Please, mark the date in your calendar. More information at http://www.uit.no/MostCCPP/
As already indicated above, the phase I of the MOST CCPP project (1995-2000) will be discussed and evaluated by users and researchers at the STORDFJORD CONFERENCE 6.-10. June 2001 (see above). An application to the Joint Committee of the Nordic Social Science Research Council (NOS-S) to finance the MOST CCPP project for a phase II was turned down, but a new application will be submitted in January 2001. So far we have raised means from other sources to finance the MOST CCPP secretariat at the University of Tromsø (full time Research Officer) also for the year 2001, but a more permanent financial situation would make the work much easier and give time for work with the MOST CCPP network partners.
I am pleased to announce that the new website for MOST CCPP is now publicly
accessible. The website address is: http://www.uit.no/MostCCPP/.
Related to travelling and Christmas Holidays, the MOST CCPP secretariat
will not be staffed in the period 14.12.2000 1.01.2001. For any questions
during this period, please get in touch with Jørgen Ole Bærenholdt,

—We read with interest the report by Rockey and Griep entitled "Behavioral Dysfunction in Hyperthyroidism: Improvement With Treatment," in the September 1980 Archives (140:1194-1197). We in the Endocrine Disease Section also have been working on a similar subject-the behavioral aspects of thyroid diseases—at the psychologic laboratory of the Cerrahpaşa Medical Faculty at the Institute of Nuclear Medicine in Istanbul, Turkey.In our studies, we used a large battery of psychologic tests that measured the following: reaction time, motor coordination, simple learning and problem solving, visual illusions, perceptual span, intelligence, organicity (Bender Gestalt test, Memory for Design test, and Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory), and the psychosomatic and neuropsychiatric tendencies of a subject (Cornell index). These studies also included patients with simple goiter and various uninodular goiter disorders as well as the hyperthyroid patients in our experimental groups (N = 119).

MILLVILLE -- No serious injuries were reported today after a school bus carrying middle school children collided with a SUV at the intersection of Wheaton Avenue and D Street.
Superintendent Shelly Schneider said the bus was transporting an unknown number of students to Lakeside Middle School when the accident occurred at 8:15 a.m.
"All the kids were fine," she said this afternoon. "(One student) complained of back pain, we called his mother and he was sent to the hospital. But, his mother came to the scene and said he was OK."
The remaining students, ranging in age from 11 to 14 years old, were taken to school after the crash, Schneider said, adding a letter was sent home and parents were called to inform them of the accident.
Police said the bus was traveling west on D Street when it stopped at a stop sign, then pulled out onto Wheaton Avenue.
The driver, Kevin Brown, 42, of Millville, failed to observe a Lincoln SUV, which turned onto Wheaton Avenue from 3rd Street and was proceeding north, and the two vehicles collided, according to police.
Brown attempted to stop the bus, police said, but the SUV hit the front bumper area, causing the Lincoln to strike a curb at Wheaton Avenue and D Street and overturn on its roof.
The driver of the SUV, Heather Hayes, 29, of North 4th Street, was taken to South Jersey Healthcare-Regional Medical Center in Vineland to be checked out, police said. Her condition was not available.
The passenger on the bus was also taken to Regional Medical Center for treatment of his back pain.
Any summonses are pending the outcome of the investigation by Ptl. Richard Kott, according to police.
The bus suffered minor damage to the front. The SUV sustained major damage.
Hayes was wearing a seat belt at the time of the accident.

While multiple small aneurysms of the cerebral and of the pulmonary vessels have been discovered at necropsy, and multiple aneurysms of various of the individual intra-abdominal arterial trunks have been found at operation and at postmortem examination, but relatively few cases of multiple peripheral aneurysms have been reported. Among these may be mentioned the cases of Monro,1 Kolodny,2 Aloi,3 Wilbur,4 Lemonnier and Bouysset5 and Leriche and Jung.6 However, only in the case reported by Aloi, in which aneurysms developed in both popliteal spaces, were all the aneurysms treated surgically.
We wish, therefore, to present a clinical and a pathologic study of a remarkable case, one in which there were at least five major peripheral aneurysms involving the left femoral, right femoral, right popliteal, right subclavian and left axillary arteries; while the aorta and its primary branches were also the seat of the disease which

Megan Thode sues Lehigh University for $1.3 million over a C+ grade
- From: News Corp Australia Network
- February 13, 2013
- Megan Thode needed a B but received C+
- She wants $1.3M in loss of earnings
- Wanted to be a professional counsellor
A GRADUATE is suing her college for $1.3 million, claiming a C+ grade she received in a class destroyed her dream of being a professional counsellor.
Megan Thode, who attended Lehigh University in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, for free as her dad Steven is a professor at the private facility, is seeking financial damages for alleged breach of contract and sexual discrimination, The Morning Call reported.
Thode was in her final year of a master's degree in counselling and human services at the university's College of Education in 2009.
She needed a B in a fieldwork course in order to progress and finish her degree, but only received a C+, when her professor, Amanda Carr, gave her a score of zero for classroom participation.
Thode tried unsuccessfully at the time to contest the low mark.
After accepting the C+ grade, Thode switched courses and took a master's degree in human development. She now works as a drug-and-alcohol counsellor.
The $1.3 million she is seeking represents the difference in her earning power over her career if she was instead a state-certified counselor, her lawyer, Richard J. Orloski, told The Morning Call.
"She's literally lost a career," said Orloski.
"I have nothing against you setting national precedent here," Orloski told Northampton County Judge Emil Giordano.
Neil Hamburg, an attorney for Lehigh University, told the judge: "I think if your honor changed the grade, you'd be the first court in the history of jurisprudence to change an academic grade."
The civil trial began on Saturday (AEDT) and the judge yesterday ordered the parties to hold private talks. The case returns to court tomorrow and if it continues is set to last the week.

SEATTLE – Yoenis Cespedes is back in left field for the Oakland A's on Friday for the first time in two weeks. After being relegated to designated hitter due to a sore right shoulder, the defensive work couldn't come soon enough.
"It's nice to get him back out there, he's a pain in the (rear) on the bench," A's manager Bob Melvin joked. "He's a guy that really wants to play the outfield. He gets in the flow of the game offensively and defensively."
The numbers suggest that's true.
[RELATED: Final series key for A's playoff positioning]
Cespedes is batting .321 with an American League-best 19 RBI in September, but he's hitting just .216 (8 for 37) in nine games at DH since his shoulder injury surfaced. Getting him back in his comfort zone as the postseason approaches is important for Oakland.
Cespedes had two throwing sessions recently and his shoulder came out of it fine. A recent MRI showed tendinitis in the shoulder but no tear.
Melvin said he might announce his Game 1 starter for the ALDS on Tuesday, when the A's will hold an afternoon workout at the Coliseum. That assignment is expected to go to Bartolo Colon, who makes his final regular-season start Friday night.
Melvin was asked if pitching performances this weekend could affect who makes the postseason rotation.
"I think we have a pretty good idea but there's still room for potential movement as far as that goes," Melvin said. "Nothing's for sure yet."
But Colon and Jarrod Parker seem pretty set to start Games 1 and 2 of the divisional series, so it would appear rookie Sonny Gray, who goes Sunday, is the only pitcher this weekend who is theoretically auditioning for a spot in the four-man rotation. **
Nate Freiman was scheduled to take batting practice and Melvin considered the first baseman a possible option off the bench. Freiman appears on the bubble for a spot on the American League Divisional Series roster because of an abdominal strain that has kept him out since Sept. 16.
If he proves he's at full strength this weekend, it greatly improves his chances of playing in the ALDS because he gives the A's a right-handed hitting option at first base. Catcher Derek Norris did pregame work at first during the last series in Anaheim. **
The A's will likely hold a simulated game of some sort during workouts leading up their first game of the ALDS on Friday. If the A's clinch home-field advantage for that series, they will work out Tuesday-Thursday. If they open on the road, they will only work out Tuesday in Oakland before flying out.
"You do have some time off and have some pitchers that need to throw," Melvin said. "There' a good chance we could do some simulated stuff, maybe not a full-fledged intrasquad game, but situational stuff where some pitchers are throwing to some hitters."

Add a few laughs to the 1955 classic Marty, about two plain, shy people finding romance, and you have this sweet, quietly appealing film.
Candy, much more subdued than usual, is a bachelor cop in Chicago who lives with his subtly henpecking mother, O'Hara. He hasn't had a date in nine months when he meets the pathologically introverted Sheedy, who is a cosmetician in her father's funeral parlor, making up the faces of the deceased to resemble old movie stars.
The romance is complicated by O'Hara's possessiveness, Candy's guilt and the fact that Sheedy is Italian and Polish, two among the many ethnic groups O'Hara is prejudiced against.
Writer-director Chris (Home Alone) Columbus's script often resembles a lame sitcom: "My eyes are perfect." "Then why are you pouring orange juice in your coffee?" Moreover, the plot's will-they-or-won't-they aspect goes back and forth too many times.
But Candy and Sheedy effectively bat wide eyes at each other, and O'Hara, in her first film in two decades, is spectacularly enjoyable. Her part—a waspish, bitter woman—is not always an attractive one, yet she and Columbus make the mother into an ultimately sympathetic character. (A priest tells her, "I know you realize it's the '90s. I just don't know if you realize it's the 1990s.") And in addition to spicing up this film, O'Hara's performance arouses most pleasant memories of the dignity, strength and beauty she brought to such movies as How Green Was My Valley, Miracle on 34th Street, The Quiet Man and Rio Grande.
The film also contains edifying little parts for Anthony Quinn, as a rascally Greek neighbor with a crush on O'Hara, James Belushi, as Candy's partner, and the Chicago skyline, as picturesque decoration.
While the ending isn't romantically eloquent enough to satisfy real softies, it has a cute twist. And, in giving a—shall we say—full-figured actor a chance to get the girl, Columbus has overcome Hollywood's weightist taboo. Now if someone would make a film where Kevin Costner ends up with a 280-lb. woman, we'll know we are in a truly enlightened age. (PG-13)

When boxer Floyd Mayweather felt compelled to enlighten the world with a tweet last month that Jeremy Lin garnered the attention he did because he was Asian-American, I felt I would be doing a disservice to some of the 76ers if I didn't give them the opportunity to address the statements - rather than let 'Money' seem to be speaking for them.
Said Mayweather: "Black players do what he does every night and don't get the same praise."
Well, no, they don't. No undrafted rookie free agent ever did what Lin did in those seven magical games from Feb. 4-15.

For Women Who Want The Ballerific Life!
No matter how much money you make, you've got to pay your taxes, people! Lauryn Hill, Wesley Snipes and Ronald Isley can tell you from experience. Flo Rida, real name Tramar Lacel, currently owes Uncle Same nearly $1.2Million in back taxes over the last 3 years -- 2009 ($343,317.03), 2010 ($10,245.41) and 2011 ($844,093.00).
Flo Rida first gained national popularity for his 2008 song "Low" which featured fellow rapper T-Pain and spent ten weeks as a number one hit on the Billboard charts. Since then Flo Rida has spent a lot of time on the pop charts and touring. It's said that he has a net worth of around $30 Million.

If he's worth $30 million surely he can afford to give up $1.2,that'll teach him to pay his taxes on time

Relay Races!
we live by the beach. i have 2 kids and a dog i cant always walk during school hours so i was wondering if anyone could suggest any beach games we could do. there arent enuf of us to play any type of team game. unless the dog can be a member of the team which would give us 2 a side. we can just do sprints but i figured if we made a game of it, it would be more fun. i would also rather use a natural material like a ball of kelp or a piece of driftwood as the ball than carry a big ball around. the beach is usually deserted as well so we dont have to worry about crashing into anyone when we run around.
Relay Races!
good idea! i had thought of some kind of simplified baseball, something which involves chasing and races. if there's enuf driftwood, we walk over it and see who can stay off the ground the longest. but that is only in one corner of the beach.
I remember back in the days where i trained in a pre-army group.. every weekend we would go to the beach, taking a football with us and play a game we invented.. its sort of combination between rogby and football.. but it has nothing to do with what your asking, as you need atleast 2 teams of 5 people and a referree (and the game itself is pretty violent and aggressive)(this game is actually great as sprint excercise, because you need to run from defense to attack all the time on a deep sand which absoloutly kills your legs and also everyone on each team is responsible to guard a member of the other team so if your not giving your absolute 100% and the guy your guarding make some goals your team starts to put alot of pressure on you which pretty much forces your to give your maximum).. but i just had some memories i wanted to share..
anyway..games to the beach.. hmm..
i realy cant think of anything.. sorry..
il just give some idea to a killer excercie you can do that i know of from my train training on the group i spoke of earlier.
find some sort of long stick and place it in the water about 15 meters of so into the water, and another stick of somthing 30-40 meters away from the water (for a real kill, find an uphill which is realy close to the water and put the stick on the uphill.. ive done many excercises like this one.. it will kill you but u cant get any better sprint excercise this this) and just start on the uphill (or on the bottom of it), run to the stick in the water and circle it and run back to the top of the hill..
lol that sounds nasty! our beach is pretty wild so i'm not so sure i would be wanting to be 15m out without a wetsuit, a surf board and a leg rope or even a boat but we could do a variant. lots of driftwood to play with. big chunks of seaweed too.
You can arrange a beach volleyball game, as you are young you can handle your kids, and also some sand games, like making home and other character, that would be knowledgeable too.
'Run away from Daddy or he is going to kick you in he arse, straight into he sea'. Admittedly it's a long name for a beach game so we've shortened it to RAFDOHIGTKYITASITS and I love it. The kids don't like it as much as me as they do end up getting repeatedly wet. I prefer playing it in the icy cold winters we have here in the U.K, it makes them run that be faster (trying to keep away from my foot & the sea) and gives them a better workout, hehehe. I always get them in the end though...
You could always play a good game of 'IT' if your not into RAFDOHIGTKYITASITS.
How big is your dog?
You could play what I call "tag frisbee". In that case, dogs can be team-members too. I played it a lot as a kid.
This is how it goes: Split up in groups of two (ie one group would be a human and your dog), and the two members of each team start passing the frisbee back and forth to each other while the two members of the other team try to catch it mid-air and steal it. As soon as you've stolen the frisbee you have to start passing it back and forth between you and your team-mate and the other team has to try to r-conquer it.
Obviously, your dog can't pass the frisbee, but if he/she has it, then you could pick it up and throw it for him/her. You'll still end up getting enough exercise because you'll surely be running a lot when the other team has the frisbee. Usually, the biggest challenge of the game lies within the humans trying to outrun the dog.
There are some rules (that me and my bro and cousins came up with): 1) The frisbee can only be "stolen" in mid air. You cannot rip it out of someone's hand once they've caught it. 2) Once you have it, you have to throw it within 5 seconds.
Of course, this game doesn't work with yorkshire terriers (or maybe it does, I just haven't tried it).

KYOTO, Japan — I was looking forward to a great night in. This is almost unheard of among travelers, who are always looking for a great night out, even aboard cruises. When you're away, staying in your room (or stateroom) all evening might mean that you are ill, afraid, jaded or dull. But not in Japan, when you're staying in a ryokan.
A ryokan is a traditional Japanese inn, which is as far from an American inn as you can get. Staying inside your room once the afternoon begins to fade is precisely the point. In fact, it is probably bad form to leave after dinner, because the entire experience of a ryokan - tatami-matted floors, sliding paper walls, and all - sets you up for contemplation, relaxation and enjoying the surroundings of your room, which comes almost always with a private, walled-in Japanese garden. Think about the Japanese sensibility for design and natural order, and you're homing in on a ryokan night.

Stock up
1. South Florida. There was nothing graceful about the Bulls' slugfest victory against Villanova on Wednesday night, but it was a victory nonetheless. They'll need a similar tough effort today against Notre Dame to get what certainly seems like it will be a very important win in the eyes of the selection committee.

2. Connecticut. The Huskies are approaching lock territory. They now have six wins against RPI top 50 teams and a schedule that's either ranked No. 1 or 2 in the country, depending on how the RPI numbers shake out. Their overtime win Wednesday against fellow bubble team West Virginia might be the icing on their NCAA bid.
Stock down
1. West Virginia. There are soooo many teams on the bubble that lack multiple quality wins—Drexel, Washington, Oregon, South Florida, Northwestern, Virginia, Memphis and California all have either zero or one win against RPI top 50 teams—that West Virginia, with its four top 50 wins and nine top 100 victories surely is safe, right? Probably. Let's just put it this way: The Mountaineers aren't as safe as they would have been if they would have knocked off Connecticut on Wednesday afternoon.
2. Seton Hall. The Pirates made a late push but didn't have enough in the tank to pull out a win against Louisville. Though it's obviously impossible to know what the committee will think, it seems the Pirates have the worst resume of any Big East bubble team other than South Florida—RPI of 62, only three top 50 wins and losses to three teams with RPIs of 110 or worse. But South Florida is still playing, which is an unsettling feeling for the Pirates.
Going dancin'
1. Lehigh. Bucknell spent the entire conference season atop the Patriot League standings—the Bison won their first 10 league games—and earned home-court advantage for the conference title game. A 9-0 run by Lehigh midway through the second half put the Mountain Hawks in control of the hostile territory, and they held on through a few tense moments late to claim the auto bid. With an RPI of 92, the Mountain Hawks have at least a shot at their best seed ever—they've been a 16th seed three times and in the play-in game once.
2. Long Island. Like Bucknell, LIU-Brooklyn earned home-court advantage throughout the conference tournament, but unlike Bucknell, LIU made that advantage stand up. The Blackbirds built an eight-point lead over third-seeded Robert Morris and cruised to their second consecutive NCAA berth. They lost to North Carolina, 102-87, as a No. 15 seed last March.
3. Montana. Weber State's Damian Lillard was brilliant, as always, with 29 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists, but a total team effort from Montana was more than enough to punch the Grizzlies' ticket. The starting five all scored in double-digits—Kareem Jamar and Mathias Ward had 23 each to lead the team—and the Grizzlies rolled to a 19-point win with a dominating second half.
Note: As always, this is a projection of what the selection committee would do based on what's happened so far this season. Note, part 2: Pending automatic bids are given to the highest remaining seed in conference tournaments. Note, part 3: Teams with asterisks have officially locked up NCAA bids.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) - With rain and clouds threatening to delay the launch, six astronauts boarded space shuttle Endeavour today on a mission to map a still-unknown planet: our own.
Endeavour was scheduled to blast off at 12:47 p.m. Forecasters were hopeful the weather would improve by the end of the two-hour launch window.
After an 11th-hour engine review, NASA cleared Endeavour for launch on its quest to create the most accurate and complete topographic map of Earth ever produced.
NASA's top shuttle manager, Ron Dittemore, announced Sunday that Endeavour's three main engines were safe to fly and that the launch would proceed as planned.
The decision came despite lingering uncertainty over two fuel pump seals. Because of lost paperwork, engineers cannot prove the two metal seals are certified for flight.
"We're not launching with a problem," Dittemore said. "We're launching with what was a potential problem that we have cleared and is no issue."
Mission managers ordered an exhaustive review of seals in Endeavour's fuel turbopumps late last week after a defective seal turned up in one of Discovery's main engines.
The bad seal should have been thrown away as a factory reject but instead was installed in a fuel pump that flew on Discovery six weeks ago. It also flew on Discovery in October 1998 - the flight that returned John Glenn to orbit - and on Endeavour earlier that year.
NASA was able to determine, through documents, that 16 of 18 seal segments on Endeavour's three fuel pumps are certified and good. The paperwork is missing on the remaining two.
Dittemore said the likelihood of another defective seal turning up on one of Endeavour's three engines is "very, very, very low."
Endeavour's 11-day mapping mission originally was scheduled for September but was held up by damaged wiring found throughout the shuttle fleet.
Army Lt. Gen. James King, director of the National Imagery and Mapping Agency, said Endeavour's 3-D maps will provide military leaders as well as civilian scientists with details about terrain, elevation, slope and even surface roughness.
"How exciting it is to see the unprecedented amount of high-resolution data that the mission will provide," King said.
