LEWISTOWN - Mifflin County had to battle and do everything right, but Post 287 erased a 2-0 fourth-inning deficit and dropped Clearfield 5-2 in an American Legion baseball game on Wednesday night at Rec Park.
The turning point came on the base paths thanks to the legs and instincts of Mifflin County first baseman Drew Hannon.
Down a run in the bottom of the fifth, Hannon drew a throw to third on a John Michael Maclay single to left to put two runners in scoring position with one out and scored on the ensuing suicide squeeze laid down by Carter Spade to tie the game at 2-2.

"I was trying to not leave too early," Hannon said of the play. "I was making sure I didn't give away the squeeze."
Hannon delivered a two-out, two-run single the next inning to give Post 287 starting pitcher Issac Strohecker some breathing room and make it 5-2.
"I was just trying to put the ball in play," Hannon said. "I was just trying to get the run in."
Strohecker delivered a complete game in which he allowed just the two fourth-inning runs on six hits to earn the victory.
"Tonight it was Issac Strohecker on the mound who set the tone," Mifflin County manager Bernie Howard said. "Even in the fourth with the base hits, from that point on he was lights out. Of the last 12 guys he faced, he gave up a swinging bunt base hit and a walk."
Runs were hard to come by early on as both Strohecker and Clearfield starter Ben Orsich put up zeros the first three innings.
Mifflin County did have an opportunity to strike first in the bottom half of the opening inning.
Max Remy drew a one-out walk and quickly stole second base to get into scoring position with one down.
Lucas McKay grounded to third and Remy advanced to third on the throw, by Orsich got Heath Hidlay to ground out to third and end the threat.
The first time either team got the lead-off runner on base, Clearfield was able to make it count in the top of the fourth.
Sawyer Rowles lead off the fourth with a single to center and two batters later, Cole Kephart split the left-center field gap for an RBI double and the game's first run.
Clearfield starting pitcher Ben Orsich helped himself out with a run-scoring single to center and made it 2-0 visitors.
Mifflin County started to claw back when Lucas McKay ripped a one-out single to center and stole second base.
The throw went center and McKay took the extra base to land on third with less than two outs.
Heath Hidlay cashed in on the opportunity with an RBI groundout up the middle to cut the lead to 2-1 Clearfield going to the fifth.
Post 287 added another one to even the game with some good, fundamental baseball on Spade's squeeze play.
"Tonight we were opportunistic, getting the (second and third) situation," Howard said. "I'm a real proponent of small ball. I know I have guys that can put it down. Carter Spade from the left side had a beauty."
Orsich got Kyle Bodtorf to fly out to center and end the inning.
After issuing a two-out walk to Clearfield catcher Josh Sorbera, Strohecker got his counterpart swinging to end the sixth inning and keep the game tied.
Hunter Walker led off the bottom of the sixth with a single and Remy followed suit.
McKay walked to load the bases to set up Strohecker's go-ahead sacrifice fly to make it 3-2.
"When we got up there in the bottom of the sixth, our one and two guys set the table," Howard said. "Strohecker gave us the lead and Hannon gave us the cushion with the two-RBI base hit."
Hannon tacked on the two-run single and Strohecker retired Clearfield in the top half of the seventh with little cause for concern.
The win pushes Mifflin County to 16-6 on the season - 10-3 in Central Penn League play - as it travels to Maryland for the Frederick American Legion Wood Bat tournament for four games.
"We just have to keep hitting the ball and playing good defense," Hannon said. "We'll be good."

text: Hi chiem! It surely is a nice start for learning sight reading, and I believe it can be great fun training such things at the computer, but I think there are two major things missing in your program. You don't train the link "See the note" - "hit the right key on a piano-keyboard", and, which is even more important, you don't train the link "see the note" - "imagine what it sounds like". What you do, you train the link "see the note" - "think of it's name", and in musical terms, this does not seem very valuable to me. Working at the piano, playing notes one wants to train (without looking at the keys), analyzing chords, writing notes, writing melodies one knows by heart, with or without the help of the piano, thinking of how a written note sounds like and verifying if it's right, this should help more... I hope you can understand which concept of sight-reading is behind that, because thinking about the idea of sight-reading would really help writing a program to train it... I'm eager to know what you think of it... Greetings Jan

By Mark Milby, No Waste Program Coordinator
It's an interesting time for folks concerned with waste. New packaging products boasting less environmental impact are making their debut every month, and frankly, it's getting confusing. Accordingly, there's an argument raging in the waste industry over the pros and cons of these products. As IU's No Waste Coordinator, I get a lot of questions from event planners, department heads, and curious students about which products they should be using. But don't worry – I'm here for you. Let's decompose all the trash talk into the bottom line.

A New Perspective
07/30/2012 § Leave a comment
By Haley Prihoda, Conserving Natural and Cultural Heritage in Dunn's Woods intern
I could not be more grateful for my internship with the Office of Sustainability this summer. The experience has revealed all that I have taken for granted and helped me understand the larger consequences of my thoughtless actions. From an alternate perspective, however, it has also inspired me with a sense of self-worth by highlighting the significant contributions one person can make.
As I look back at the beginning of this summer, I truly see a different person. Entering the summer internship program as a history major with very little background in sustainability, I admittedly felt like a fish out of water. My peers continually impressed me with their knowledge, dedication, and passion for the field. During our debates and discussions, this passion was often palpable, with everyone contributing well-informed, yet unique perspectives. As the weeks continued, my familiarity with the issues increased and I was proud to consider myself more informed about the topics we discussed (global warming, environmental politics, alternative energy, ecosystem services, etc.). As my knowledge grew, so did my passion. I began to feel a stronger internal connection to the crisis at hand. I wanted to address the issues, and, possibly even more importantly, I wanted to spread the message: The world needs our help. « Read the rest of this entry »
Policy & Possibility
07/30/2012 § Leave a comment
By Sara Swan, Campus Garden Coordinator
Policy can have a lasting-if sometimes subtle- impact on sustainability, and in my favorite sustainability sector (FOOD!), it is no different. In fact, food policy is a major determinant of what gets grown and how. Currently, the House is hashing out their version of the new farm bill, which will determine everything from farm subsidies to food stamps. And that's pretty important, to say the least. However, being approximately 624 miles from the farm bill debates, it can be hard to feel involved.
Luckily, Bloomington is a fantastic town for joining the fight for a more just, sustainable food system that guarantees everyone the right to eat healthy food. For example, tonight the Bloomington Food Policy Council will meet in the Council Chambers in City Hall at 5:30 p.m. The Council needs more volunteers and is a wonderful way to affect policy on a local level. Some of their current projects include drafting a food charter for Monroe County and assessing where exactly Bloomington is in terms of food security.
If you prefer to get your hands dirty, community gardens like the Community Orchard and Mother Hubbard's Cupboard Gardens would love to have you as they seek to grow nutritious food for all. On campus, we have SPROUTS and a number of food-related clubs .
We also have the IU Office of Sustainability's Campus Garden. I'm a little biased, but I'd say it's pretty amazing. Everytime you volunteer at the campus garden, you are helping to make a lasting impact on our campus food system as the food grown in the garden goes to RPS and IMU Dining (You can also get free veggies by volunteering as all volunteers are entitled to garden produce).
However you choose to get involved in sustainability issues, it's important that you do. These wonderful programs are only as strong as their volunteers, so go out and make some change! (And probably make some great friends along the way)
Big Ten Climate Scientists Call for Dialogue
07/26/2012 § Leave a comment
By Bill Brown, IU Director of Sustainability
Is this what climate change feels like? The first six months of 2012 were the warmest ever recorded in Indiana, in the continental United States, and across the globe (according to NOAA's National Climate Data Center). The last 12 months were also the warmest ever recorded.
The USDA now counts 1330 counties, a third of the nation, in their "drought disaster zone," and 50 of Indiana's 92 counties are included in this designation.
As the climate continues to warm, can we expect more of this extreme weather we have witnessed in 2011 and 2012? Indiana and Big Ten climate scientists recently answered that question with a "yes."
Professor Scott Robeson, chair of the Indiana University Department of Geography and Purdue's University's Paul Shepson, a professor of analytical and atmospheric chemistry, recently wrote an opinion page letter in the Indianapolis Star linking current extreme weather with climate change. Their letter was co-authored by climate scientists from all twelve Big Ten universities, and similar letters appeared in major newspapers across the Midwest. « Read the rest of this entry »
Wallet Sustainability
07/24/2012 § Leave a comment
By Erica Bramlet, Hoosier to Hoosier Community Sale Coordinator
There are costs to almost everything we do. Should you risk the stomachache and eat that dessert? Should you watch an hour of TV and put off your work or homework until tomorrow? Sustainability is no different, and you can't really talk about the S word these days without also talking about costs and benefits—economic, health, social, environmental, etc.
Convenience and comfort are two things almost every American is used to, no matter how much we may complain about that parking spot being miiiiiles away from the store. But sometimes when we put an actual value or price on that convenience, feelings change, as hopefully some of yours will as I provide a few examples that recently changed my mind about some not-quite-so-sustainable behaviors.
Can People Change?
07/24/2012 § Leave a comment
By Carolyn Raider, Utilities and Conservation Intern
A year ago today I was teaching some of the brightest students I've worked with photography in the Galapagos Islands. My female co-leader Alex was an incredible instructor, not to mention one of the most environmentally-conscious individuals I've met to date. By the end of our trip, she had influenced every one of our students to always reuse their water bottles, refuse straws in restaurants, and to care about their carbon footprint. Since I met her I've been fascinated as to how she influences people to change their behavior, to care.
My goal of the summer and into the fall semester is to inspire people in the same way she did, but on the larger scale of a university campus. Being a primary orchestrator in the Energy Challenge and promoting general information about energy consumption here at IU, I've taken this goal to heart. Shahzeen Attari's Human Behavior and Energy Consumption class (take it if at all possible) this past spring gave me fodder to promote the change I've been pursuing. I've since been revisiting articles of expert authors in the field and brainstorming how they can apply to my projects. « Read the rest of this entry »

Coming into Wednesday's matchup with the Phoenix Suns, the San Antonio Spurs already knew they would be without point guard Tony Parker, who suffered a right shin contusion on Monday in the team's loss to the Los Angeles Clippers. The Spurs were about to have the task of facing a Phoenix team that was on a 5-game winning streak.
Apparently, one 36 year old on the Spurs' roster, was ready for the challenge.
Manu Ginobili and the Spurs would comeback down 10 points Wednesday to defeat the Suns 108-101 in Phoenix behind Ginobili's 24 points, 7 assists, 6 rebounds, and 2 steals, including a clutch fourth quarter in which he scored 11-of-his 13 fourth quarter points in the final five minutes of the game.
Channing Frye (22 points) started the first half with a hot-shooting hand for the Suns as he scored 15 points in the first 24 minutes, including shooting 3-of-3 from beyond the arc. Ginobili led San Antonio with 11 points and 5 assists in the opening half, while Kawhi Leonard scored 10 of his 14 points in the first half to pace the Spurs. In that opening half, the Spurs would fall behind 10 points, but they would make strong comeback to take a 59-58 halftime lead.
In the second half, Tim Duncan would have a strong performance with 10 of his 17 points, as he put together his fifth straight double-double with 13 rebounds on the night.
On Saturday, in a win against the Minnesota Timberwolves, Ginobili scored 16 of his 20 points in the final quarter. He had another spectacular closing quarter against Phoenix as he scored 11 of the Spurs' 15 final points in the last five minutes of the game. Whether it was hitting a clutch corner 3-pointer, his only one of the game; or providing layups or free throws, Ginobili was the Spurs' answer without Parker.
Stat Stuffers
· December Manu: In the win, Ginobili set a new season-high with 24 points. He scored that season high while playing just 27 minutes the entire game. In the month of December through 18 days, he's averaging 14 points, shooting 55% from the field, shooting 39% from three, 5.4 assists, 4 rebounds, and just 2.4 turnovers in just 22.6 minutes per game. The production Ginobili is providing two months into the season is showing that with him taking the summer off from international play, his play is being rewarded early on at the start of the season. Ginobili's offensive rating has also risen from 110.6 points per 100 possessions in November to 120.7 in December.
· Spurs' Defense Present for 36 minutes: After allowing the Suns to score 34 points and shoot 60% in the first quarter, the Spurs' defense held the Suns to quarters of 23, 22, and 20 points in the following three quarters. After the first, the Suns only shot 42% from the floor the rest of the way and only 20% from 3-point range.
· Limiting the Suns' two-headed guard monster: The Spurs' defense threw multiple defenders at the Suns' guards Goran Dragic and Eric Bledsoe from players like Cory Joseph, Kawhi Leonard, to Marco Belinelli and more. The Spurs' defense played solid defense as it took Dragic 18 shots to score 18 points and Bledsoe 15 shots to score 15 points.
· Mills providing support in Parker's absence: Even though Joseph started the game at point guard, Patty Mills would finish the game in the fourth quarter. Mills score 12 points and threw 4 assists in his 31 minutes of play, while Joseph played 16 minutes.
· Bench play continues to soar: The Spurs' bench outscored the Suns' bench 58-29, while they also were responsible for 70% of the Spurs' total assists (16-of-23 assists). Of all Spurs players that played in the match, every player scored at minimum four points.
Where they stand: With the win, the Spurs improved to 20-5 on the season. They moved to 11-3 on the road, they are 6-5 against teams that are .500 or above, and 11-4 against the Western Conference. They hold the highest Net Rating in the NBA at +9.8. They're 4th in offensive rating at 106.5 points per 100 possessions, and their defense continues to rank 2nd in the league at 96.6 points per 100 possessions.
Up Next: The Spurs will travel to Oakland where they'll face the Golden State Warriors on Thursday in a back-to-back set. The Warriors are currently 14-12 on the season, 8-3 at home, and are 3-8 against winning teams. The Warriors have an offensive rating at 104.1 (11th) points per 100 possessions, a defensive rating of 100.3 (7th) points per 100 possessions, and have a Net Rating of +3.8 (8th).
Parker will not play against the Warriors, while the Warriors recently added Andre Iguodala from the injured list back into their rotation.

No words to say how amazing is it!
Kudos to Panasonic/Leica! Congratulations!
How did the new 20mm lens perform compared to the old one. Mainly autofocus. Was it faster?
Anyone see the similarities with the venerable Lumix L1!

What does Leica have to do with this ?
Panasonic made and developed this and Leica buys Panasonic made cameras and sticks a Leica brand on them then charges dumb people 3x times the price, for that Panasonic gets to use "Leica" brand on their lenses that are also made by Panasonic and not by Leica.
You need to freshen up that knowledge of yours.

People with disabilities volunteer for the same reasons as anyone else: they want to contribute their time and energy to improving the quality of life. They want challenging, rewarding, educational service projects that address needs of a community and provide them with outlets for their enthusiasm and talents.
The Online Volunteering service is looking for people who have volunteered through the OV service and who have a physical or cognitive disability. In particular, we want to hear from you if you have a disability and believe that the OV service has contributed to your being able to volunteer. We are hoping to gather stories from people who have contributed time or expertise through the OV service and who also have some kind of physical or cognitive disability. We want to use these testimonials to show that people with disabilities can be volunteers, not merely be served by volunteers.
Please contact us only if you meet the criteria stated above. Include your full name, your city and country, the online volunteering activities you have completed and what organizations you helped, and how you believe the OV service has contributed to your being able to volunteer.

This is getting interesting now Dinner's here, I heard you have a great marth.
And sorry about the replays, I never discovered that rule until my latest matches.
btw, I liked the Falcon PAWNCH KO bonus, but I'm afraid it would boost CK even more, no?
Also, how about slight point deductions for using Mk and Snake? you know, since a lot of people gravitate towards these two to win. I was also thinking of deductions for repeating character, since I would find the variety charming, but I'm not sure if people would like that.
Currently Playing: Brawl, Wi-Fi Brawl and Rhythm Heaven.
Spoiler Alert!
I believe if any point deductions for certain characters are to be in place, it should only be for MK. Snake is Top Tier, but he has his counters and disadvantages. MK is the only one I believe should be involved with point deductions.
I think forcing people into mixing it up is a bad idea. Rather, there could be a slight point increase by say, times 1.3, if you don't use any character twice in a row, or twice in every 3 matches (not entire official sets), so on and so on.
On that subject, how about there be a times 1.5 point bonus for winning a match with current bottom tier'ers, i.e. Falcon, Link, etc.?
Hey anax... **** you. meta knight is perfectly fine. Ive used him through a year and a half of professional gaming, and you want a point deduction? wtf? Im not going to change my main charecter after such a long career, and Im leaving if theres anytype of point deduction for my main. Its completly un-fair. Even if meta is a high teir, it doesnt mean that he gets point deductions.

Y so srs? ;D
Flaming, Last? How mature. =/ I thought you knew better; especially when reacting to someone opinion.
Nobody's telling you to change your character. A simple reduction in how many points you get per match isn't going to kill you. :P Everybody knows Meta has plenty advantages, and no disadvantagious match ups, that's pretty broken.
Even I agree there should be some sort of reduction, and I'm a Meta mainer myself. Just chill, yeah?
ohh I must have -100 points XD sorry for the abscence guys...
Spoiler Alert!
Spoiler Alert!Spoiler Alert!
lol, i strongly disagree. If we add deductions/point bonuses then this thread will go out of wack, and everyone one will be confuesed. I think there should be a simple point deduction/addition. something to be rated on like this:
(lets say you won this one 2-0 so the "win" means you get the full 10pts)
Win: +10 (if you lost it would be -10)
style: +2 (Very good non repetitve)
Combos: -1 (lack of combos/bad combos)
Tier bonus: +0 (used a high tier like meta. mid tier +1, low tier +2)
Ko bonus: +2 (won both games without dying)
Spam: -2 (used b move far to much(ignore the style comment on this one))
Total: 11pts
If you go negitive then it just comes out as 0 pts.
comments? I like this idea better, cuz it avoids conflict and confusion.

Some Investors See a System Still Stacked
In scoring their biggest insider-trading victory in a generation, regulators have a message for a nation of nervous individual investors: When it comes to information about stocks, the playing field is getting a little more level.
The little guy isn't so sure.
Certainly, the insider-trading conviction of Galleon Group founder Raj Rajaratnam on all 14 counts of securities fraud and conspiracy was a major victory for the Justice Department and, by extension, the Securities and Exchange Commission. Mr. Rajaratnam was at the center of a sprawling government investigation that regulators have made a showcase for their enforcement efforts.
Yet while some investors have praised the government's recent efforts, many say they still feel at a disadvantage in a market dominated by large Wall Street firms and hedge funds.
"I'm certainly happy with the verdict, and I hope it empowers the investigators and prosecutors to go much deeper in trying to solve some of what I consider the systemic problems with the markets," says Steve Borsher, a retired computer programmer who trades stocks and futures from his home in North Easton, Mass.
Yet he says the government's efforts are still more reactive than proactive, comparing them to anti-terrorism measures at airport security check-ins.
"Someone carries on a liquid to make a bomb, then suddenly all liquids are denied on the plane," the 64-year-old Mr. Borsher says.
"The problem is to solve the systemic dishonesty at the root level, but all this chopping off troublemakers at the top, it's like Whac-A-Mole," he said.
Audrey Lewak, a retired Merrill Lynch sales associate in Berkeley, Calif., is convinced that stocks are driven by a small circle of knowledgeable insiders—"somebody with a lot of money and skill, banding together with other people to make a movement up or down."
Far from capitulating, though, investors like Ms. Lewak, 72, are deciding that, if they can't beat the big boys, they're going to join them.
Ms. Lewak took a technical-analysis class at a local university to hone her techniques, trying to mimic the moves of hedge funds and other players that may be privy to insider information. "I don't care if you don't know why [they have the information], as long as you can piggyback off them," she says.
There has been no shortage of fodder for stock-market cynics in recent years: the collapse of overhyped dot-com stocks at the turn of the century, malfeasance at Enron and WorldCom, a housing bubble, the near-implosion of Wall Street and the "flash crash" of 2010.
Since the stock market bottomed in March 2009, the Dow Jones Industrial Average has surged 95% as of Tuesday's close.
But many ordinary investors have missed that historic rebound, paralyzed by reluctance to jump back into a market they fear is tilted against them.
Instead, many people have simply abandoned stocks. Investors in the U.S. pulled $280 billion from stock mutual funds between 2008 and 2010, according to the Investment Company Institute, a trade group based in Washington. At the same time, they have poured their money into bond mutual funds, which have attracted $645 billion in the same period, as well as commodities and currencies.
"There's a general sense that there are people on Wall Street profiting in ways that aren't available to the average investor," says Charles Rotblut, vice president of the Chicago-based American Association of Individual Investors, who urges small investors not to flee the stock market. "Over the history of the financial markets, there has always been some malfeasance going on, but individual investors have still been able to profit while playing by the rules," he says.
Jeevan Anand, 62, a semiretired utilities manager in Los Angeles who has been investing for more than two decades, says he no longer trades individual stocks after concluding that price movements were being driven too much by insider trading. And, he says, no high-profile convictions are likely to change that.
Not all investors are so jaded. Mark Booker, 46, a computer technician in Louisville, Ky., is resigned to the divisions between institutional and individual, but he takes a relative view. "There's always going to be the Wall Street big guys, and they're always going to be able to make more money than me, the little guy, but I'm going to be able to make money as well."

Reba McEntire
It's just as well that Haggard and McEntire have two of the best voices in country music. They are also among the most prolific of modern recording artists. They would both be wearing out their welcomes—Haggard would have used his up long ago—if they weren't so consistently entertaining. Neither of these albums is very surprising; both are routinely excellent. Haggard has adopted a leisurely, country-manor style in recent years. It serves him well when he has material that generates some interest on its own, as he has in this case. The title tune by Adam Mitchell gives Haggard a chance to wax philosophical and benefits from some strong backup vocalizing by Janie Fricke, and Billy Sherrill's and Glen Sutton's Almost Persuaded is still a hard-to-beat lost-love song. Haggard also has a good old, almost Bing Crosby-ish time with the standard Pennies From Heaven, allowing his Strangers to indulge their penchant for bar-band Western swing, which is closer to Dixieland on this track. McEntire (four albums have been released under her name in the last year) offers a lively mix, from the crying-in-your-beer song (it'sacrying-in-her-margarita here) My Mind Is on You by Dave Loggins and Don Schlitz to the pledge-of-eternal-love Till It Snows in Mexico by Gordon Pavne and Roger Lavoie. Actually, Reba, it has been known to snow in Mexico, but don't let that be a bother. We still love you. (Haggard: Epic, McEntire: MCA)

Scoop (1938) is a novel by Evelyn Waugh, set partly in England and partly in the fictional African country of Ishmaelia, named for Ishmael, the outcast son of Abraham in the Book of Genesis. Subtitled A Novel about Journalists, Scoop describes the attempts of the world press to cover Ishmaelia's civil war. The novel is based on Waugh's experience reporting the Italo-Abyssinian (or Ethiopian) War of 1935-1936 and his travel book about it, Waugh in Abyssinia (1936). The characters are realistic, many derived from people acquainted with Waugh. Scoop is satirical, however, and Waugh emphasizes the dishonesty of journalists. Generally regarded as the lightest and happiest of his novels, Scoop was …

Playstation comes to Android
Although we've all been waiting for the official announcement on a Playstation phone, Sony made an interesting announcement today. The games firm is to make its Playstation content available on mobile phones through the Playstation Suite.
The catch? It's only for Android phones. Bad luck for iPhone users.

Session 30 - Amateurs & Professionals: Collaborators in the New Age of Electronic Astronomy.
Display session, Tuesday, June 10
South Main Hall,
GNAT is a new non-profit organization whose goals are to develop a global network of small telescopes and to be a catalyst for all those interested in the effective use of such telescopes for research and for education. Such a telescope network could and would make a major impact on research and education worldwide. The value per cost ratio would be very high. GNAT now has in operation a 0.5m telescope, and has hosted a number of meetings on the issues. There are now about 50 formal members (organizations as well as amateur and professional astronomers) and a web site (www.gnat.org) that will be growing greatly in quality and quantity in the next months. We welcome and need your advice and involvement.

The Party of PrincipleSmaller Government - Lower Taxes - More Freedom
"It didn't take much to buy a House vote, only about $130 billion in so-called sweeteners," says Bob Barr, the Libertarian Party candidate for president, referring to the 58 members of Congress who changed their vote from 'no' to 'yes' in support of the bailout bill. "So now the House has joined the Senate in taking $700 billion-plus worth of Main Street's money to bail-out Wall Street. Congress spent money it doesn't have to get reluctant members to vote even more money that they don't have."
"Sen. John McCain claims he can provide leadership, but he panicked in the face of cries that the sky is falling from Wall Street investors who made bad investments, and the taxpayers are going to pay over $700 billion for his lack of leadership," says Libertarian Party Presidential Nominee Bob Barr.
"Sen. McCain claims he will change Washington by eliminating 'earmarks', but he just voted for more than $103 billion dollars of bold-faced earmarks," says Barr.
Just one week ago, Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson was demanding that Congress grant him unprecedented, unreviewable authority to spend $700 billion or more to bail-out Wall Street. But in a major rebuke to the administration and to both the Republican and Democratic congressional leadership, the House voted down the 110-page plan that emerged from last weekend´s frenzied — if not unseemly — effort by Mr. Paulson to salvage a bailout deal.
"Few people thought it could be done, but members of Congress listened to the people rather than the establishment to vote down the proposed $700 billion bailout of Wall Street," notes Bob Barr, the Libertarian Party presidential nominee. "Their courageous action gives us a chance to start over. Our starting point should not be a government bailout. It should be a market work-out," says Barr.
"The leaders of both the Republican and Democratic Parties are rushing ahead with their $700 billion bill," says Bob Barr, the Libertarian Party candidate for president. "Without a single hearing and without considering other solutions, Congress is preparing to put the typical American family on the hook for more than $8,000. Legislators in both parties need to stand up for the American people and say no," says Barr.

Last month's stunt of having Katie Couric sit in for Jay Leno may have boosted the ratings of NBC's "Tonight Show," but as it turns out, no help was needed: Jay Leno's ratings are putting rival David Letterman's to shame.
In an analysis of the late-night numbers, the New York Post reports that Leno is crushing Letterman's "Late Show" on CBS by more than 60 percent among the highly coveted viewer demographic of 18- to 49-year-olds. That's the widest margin in four years, says the paper.
Last month, Leno claimed 6.3 million viewers vs. Letterman's 4 million. The Post says this trend basically has been in effect for eight years. (Meanwhile, Leno's annual salary is $17 million, while Letterman's is $31.5 million.)
"Leno just has a broader appeal than Letterman," Tom DeCabia, an industry analyst with the New York media-buying firm PHD, tells the paper.
"Letterman has such a sharper wit compared to Leno," said DeCabria, echoing the sentiment of most TV critics. "He can get a guest to feel very uncomfortable very quickly. That is why Letterman is who he is, but it limits his appeal across the board."
While there are those who think Letterman, 56, is "too New York" (especially compared to the laid-back class-clown antics of Leno, 53), the New York ratings bear out that the city is -- surprisingly -- very much like the rest of the country in its late-night viewing habits.
Last month, according to the Post, about 299,000 New Yorkers watched the Burbank-based Leno, while only 197,000 tuned in for Letterman.
Leno the Ratings Champ over Letterman

The "Moves" tab of a game has an "Explore" link which searches for the current position in the Game Explorer and displays the opening tree.
Now, if you do this after the game deviated from the games in the DB (or at the end of the game, when analyzing), you simply get a message that the position is not found. At this point one would normally want to find out where the game deviated from the master games and try to asses whether the novelty made sense or was more of a mistake.
With the current UI functionality, you have to manually go backwards and click on every move to see whether it's in the DB. This process could be greatly improved if the system would automatically take you to the last position (from the game) which is present in the DB. In other words, "Game Explorer" should open at the novelty rather than saying that the current position is not found.
Does this sound useful?
Yes, but ... the existing behaviour is useful too in providing a shortlink to the current position that you can paste into a forum post.
Yes, that might be a nice secondary use case.
I don't feel like this important to me anymore. The game database is pretty limited and can't really be considered a representative source of opening statistics. So it doesn't really matter that you can't find the novelty.
The game database is pretty limited and can't really be considered a representative source of opening statistics.
Yeah, it only has 1.1 million games.
1 Million might look like a lot, but let me give you an example. Here is an opening line from one of my games:
The database here contains 7 games while another online database contains 304.
Quality is much more important than quantity in opening explorer stats. There is no way there are 304 quality games that reached that position. Stats from games played in the under 9 junior champsionship at backwatersville are meaningless in what they say about an opening line. Are you able to list the 304 games that reached that position?
This is the chessbase online DB. No under 9s there. Yes, I can also access the games. I find it useful to review the ideas that were played. I don't really care whether the winning percenage is 35% or 45%. As you go a few moves deeper you can already kind of figure out whether the position improves or not.
You are wrong about the under 9 games, in fact there are even several under 8 games included on those extra games chessbase has over chess.com. Perform your search again on chessbase online db. Look at the event name for the games that reached the position from your opening. A few of the events I'm seeing on there when I look at your opening:
- Croation under 9 girls championship
- World Championship under 8 girls
- World Championship under 8
- A number of other under 12 and under 16 events.
Also have a look at the Elo column on the game list, many of them don't have ratings (i.e. not enough games to have a rating), and some of those that do have ratings are below 1000, and very few are above 2200. Many of these are rubbish games, and I don't think looking through these games, or relying on stats derived from them is useful.
Chess.com attempts to include only games where at least one of the players was 2200. Doing this reduces the volume of games, but it avoids the type of rubbish you see on the chessbase online db.
Sorry, I'm not as good as you. Rubbish games from players under 2200 are quite instructive for me.
Also, you could very well have a filter for "high ELO games" or present the as two separate databases.
But this already is a deviation from the original topic. In case the database is deemed as good, then "Go to novelty" is a useful feature, won't you agree?
My point was not that all games under 2200 are rubbish, but it seemed that the majority of those 304 games you referred to were either from players without ratings, or with very low ratings, and yes, in terms of opening study I do think most of those are rubbish, if I wanted to see rubbish games at that level, I'd just study my own :-) In a perfect world, you'd have an ELO filter on the opening explorer on both here and chessbase's online database, but unless I missed it , I think both sites are missing this , and without this feature, I'd prefer a 2200+ database over a "anything goes" database.
But to get back to your original topic, yes I agree "Go to novelty" would be a great feature.
Edit: To tie the two threads together, I also think 'go to novelty' is much more useful with a high quality database, I'm not very interested in the position in my game where the girl who came last in the under 9 croation girls chamspionship hung her queen in the same foolish way I did, so the interesting novelties may appear earlier in the game when 'rubbish' games are discarded.

Police: Pastor Found Dead in Times Square Hotel Had Drugs
Updated 4:40 p.m. Monday
By Sophia Hollander and Sean Gardiner
A white powdery substance believed to be narcotics was discovered with the body of a 42-year old megachurch Florida pastor who was discovered dead in a Times Square hotel room, a law enforcement official said Monday.
The cause of death for the Rev. Zachery Tims, Jr., who led an 8,000-member ministry in Orlando, is still pending.
Tims's body was discovered Friday afternoon when a worker trying to check the minibar in his room at the W Hotel, and found the room's door latched from the inside. A maintenance worker opened the door and found Tims lying on his back between the bedroom and living room area. According to a law enforcement official, police found a glassine envelope with a white powerdery substance inside the right pocket of his shorts.
The substance was being tested, according to a law enforcement official.
Another law enforcement official familiar with the case said, "what that white powdery substance is and whether it played a role in Mr. Tims' death is still to be determined."
Police found no signs of trauma to his body. At this point criminality is not suspected, officials said. Detectives spoke with his family members and it appears Tims died in possession of his jewelry and other belongings.
Tims was in town for a meeting and was supposed to leave for Texas last Thursday, according to a law enforcement official with knowledge of the matter.
Tims was a young drug addict in Maryland when he was "miraculously saved" according to his website and a memoir published in 2006. After discovering Christianity, he earned degrees in accounting and theology and worked at a ministry in Baltimore. In 1996, he and his wife Riva moved to Orlando, where they founded the New Destiny Christian Center.
At the ministry's first service, six people gathered in a hotel room, according to the ministry's website. In 1999, they purchased a church; two years later, the ministry expanded to a second 21-acre-location dubbed "City of Destiny."
As the church grew, it was able to bestow lavish benefits, even giving away cars to members, according to its website.
Tims's memoir and self-help book, "It's Never Too Late: How a teenage criminal found his divine destiny and became a successful millionaire and pastor of a thriving church," released through Charisma House Publications in 2006, sold "fairly well," moving around 23,000 copies, said Woodley Auguste, the imprint's director of marketing and publicity.
In 2009, Tims and his wife Riva divorced after he admitted to a year-long affair with a stripper. The couple had been married for 15 years.
After the divorce, Riva Tims founded Majestic Life Ministries in Orlando; they shared custody of their four children, including a son with Cerebral Palsy, according to the Majestic Life Ministries website.
As news of his death circulated, condolences poured in from around the country. Mourners arrived at his church, the New Destiny Christian Center in Apopka, FL, seeking answers and posted messages of shock and sadness on social media sites like Facebook and twitter.
"I join many others in being saddened by the news of the death of Rev. Zachery Tims of Florida," tweeted the Rev. Al Sharpton.

In 1973, Rob and Sheila Michael of Clyde started the non-profit High Society Baton Corps in Fremont. Now, their daughter, Nan Kramer, leads the group, which has branched out to Bellevue and Bowling Green.
Because Tiffin twirlers have expressed interest, Kramer is to give twirling instruction in Tiffin. She is offering a free information and registration night Wednesday in the Tiffin Developmental Center gymnasium. The classes are to meet 6-6:45 p.m. each Tuesday at the same location.
"We've been asked for years to come into Tiffin. ... Some (Tiffin students) have been coming to Fremont to practice, but I want to get it established here in Tiffin," Kramer said.
Article Photos
Members of High Society Baton Corps gather for a photo Saturday after the Tiffin-Seneca Heritage Festival parade.
Having been a twirler herself for more than 40 years, she enjoys passing on the skills to youth. Her most famous student is Jonathan Burkin, who appeared on the television program, "America's Got Talent." He is the world champion of the men's division and member of the U.S. World Team.
As the featured twirler for the University of Maryland marching band, Burkin marched in President Barack Obama's inaugural parade and performed a solo in front of the viewing stand.
"He comes in as a guest instructor for me. He lives in Maryland right now," Kramer said. "It's really neat when he comes in to do clinics. I'm real happy he still helps out his own group when he gets a chance."
High Society participated in the Heritage Festival Parade Saturday and passed out information brochures. Girls and boys ages 4-19 are eligible to sign up for lessons. Families with more than one twirler get a discount. The monthly fee is all-inclusive.
"You pay $35 a month. We take care of the uniforms. The group purchases the uniforms and you just rent them for $10. ... Then you're not spending $100 on a uniform that's going to end up in the closet when you're done," Kramer said.
Although the corps does enter competitions, Kramer does not charge an extra fee for those who want to participate. Kramer said family time is important, so she limits travel distances and does not schedule a parade or contest every weekend.
The students are coached according to age and skill level. Assisting Kramer for more than 20 years has been Tabitha Kirsch, who also serves as adviser for the Tiffin University majorettes.
"We all practice in our own towns, with smaller class sizes, but then when we come together, we all march. We've got over 100 members, so its really impressive when you see us coming down the road," Kramer said.
Some of the High Society members are to be on hand for demonstrations Wednesday. For more details, call Kramer at (419) 603-0899 or visit the group's Facebook page.

2010 Grammy Awards Predictions: Will Lady GaGa, Beyonce or Taylor Swift rule?
Kings of Leon, Black Eyed Peas and others vie in major categories like record of the year, album of the year and new artist
2010 Grammy Awards Predictions: Best Pop Vocal Album
"The E.N.D.," Black Eyed Peas
"Breakthrough," Colbie Caillat
"All I Ever Wanted," Kelly Clarkson
"The Fray," The Fray
"Funhouse," Pink
These are all strong contenders as pop is having a nice resurgence for females. Having said that, we're knocking Caillat out of the running. Even though she's made some nice strides, "Breakthrough" has not been as successful as her 2007 debut, plus her competition is too strong. Same with The Fray. Nice record, but not as successful as their last. "All I Ever Wanted" has spawned some nice hits for Clarkson, but hasn't advanced her career artistically. (Although if people really took the "vocal" part of the category seriously, she's be the clear winner).
That leaves us with "The E.N.D." and "Funhouse." Pink deserves it as "Funhouse" continues her exploration of deep topics, such as on "Sober," but also keeps the mood light on other tracks. "The E.N.D." is a great party album, full of inventive beats, but it doesn't hold up as well on repeated listening. Having said that, given that "The E.N.D." is also nominated for album of the year, voters who haven't spent time with all five albums will definitely check the box for the Peas.
The Grammy goes to: "The E.N.D.," Black Eyed Peas

Taking root and bearing fruit!
Over the past decade, Common Vision's school orchard program, famous throughout the state as Fruit Tree Tour, has directly impacted 80,000 students, transformed over 180 low income schools and community centers into abundant orchards with the planting of over 4,800 fruit trees. Twenty volunteers arrival on a pair of vegetable-oil-powered busses to share a day that the school will never forget.

It's all about community collaboration!
Common Vision's tree planting troupe collaborates on powerful community planting experience in neighborhoods and community centers across the state. These memorable community service events are full of celebration and leave a diverse orchard in their wake. Common vision travels with over 800 fruit trees including 70 delicious varieties to plant at community gardens, community centers, front- and backyards of neighborhoods.
Jefferson High
Every Year since 2010, Common Vision volunteers take to the streets to assist Jefferson High students in meeting their neighbors and planting trees in their neighborhood. Common Vision worked with Jefferson High's Green Design Academy in South Los Angeles in a unique community outreach tree planting project.
M.A. Center
Common Vision has been working with the M.A. Center in the East San Francisco Bay Area since 2008 to develop a 1,000 tree permaculture orchard on a scenic hillside. The site is visited by thousands each year and all proceeds from the fruit will fund humanitarian and environmental aid projects in around the world.
Invite Fruit Tree Tour to your community.
Tree Care Blitz
Planting trees is just the beginning. Common Vision is dedicated to seeing planted trees grow into mature abundant orchards. Common Vision offers return visits to school orchards to bring:
After each planting, the crew engages what we affectionately call "Mulch-Mania" putting down a 6" deep layer of mulch (wood chips) throughout the orchard. Mulch inhibits weed growth, slows water evaporation, and breaks down over time to provide food for the trees.
Compost & Microlife
The crew finishes the day by inoculating the soil with compost, worm castings, kelp, and other goodies that add billions of micro organisms into the soil ecosystem which collude for optimal tree growth.
Drip Irrigation
Common Vision installs an automated Netafim drip irrigation system to assure the trees get just the water they need through the hot California summer.
We provide training for science teachers to run standards-based curriculum right in the orchard while engaging the students in caring for the trees.
Invite Common Vision for a Tree Care Blitz at your school.
Nutiva Richmond School Orchard Project
Between 2012 and 2016, with Nutiva's support, Common Vision will plant an orchard of 10-75 fruit trees in every public elementary, middle, and high school in the city of Richmond. The project is designed to provide continuing orchard care and student integration through science and math curriculum to ensure maximum food production and educational benefits.
This initiative, the first of its type, will serve as a benchmark for the potential of school orchards to significantly impact a local food-shed and contribute to a culture of healthy eating. The goal of putting an orchard in every school is two-fold: (1) to provide Richmond's students with access to fresh and locally grown produce, and (2) to contribute to the building of a healthier Richmond community through shared community resources and accomplishments.

To Err is Human, to Moo Bovine: The Rose of Aberlone Story
Norman Otto Stockmeyer
Western Michigan University Thomas M. Cooley Law School
Thomas M. Cooley Law Review, Vol. 24, p. 491, 2007
In 1887 the Michigan Supreme Court decided the case of Sherwood v. Walker, involving a contract for a cow. It is still studied by law students today as the seminal case on the law of mutual mistake. But some popular beliefs about the case turn out themselves to be mistaken. This law review commentary explores the classic "case of the barren cow," including the parties to the lawsuit, its surprising aftermath, and its continuing importance in the law of contracts. The article was selected for reprinting in the 2009 Green Bag Almanac & Reader of Exemplary Legal Writing.

Osmond's pants on her dresses are very bothersome to me and completely distract from anything she puts on ice. Could she PLEASE find better elastic?
Chan, Chan, always Chan. I have tried so hard to like his skating but I just can't.
Lipnitskaya/Sotnikova. They just don't do anything for me. They seem to go through the moves
I'm probably the only one, but Gracie Gold. She's a beautiful skater, but I feel like her success is based on the fact that she's the "perfect American sweetheart" with her looks and personality. I've never felt emotion while watching her performances.
Javier Fernandez too. Boring.
Nah...you're not the only one (re: Gracie). I just don't "get" the adoration of her skating - it's cold, her long arms windmill too much (altho' thank goodness Lori tamed that w/ the new SP) & there's just something about her that comes across (to me) as icy. Now Javier was really an attractive skater prior to being coached by Orser; he now skates just like Brian did back in the day & it really bugs me. I also don't understand the awe of Yuna Kim & Mao Asada. They skate with no expression on their faces (Yuna especially comes across robotic to me). Last but not least, Jeremy Abbott (beautiful skating skills but the implosions during performance and verbal really are OTT and annoying). I'm glad I have a very long list of skaters (current and retired) whom I love(d) watching compete!
Against all odds and most of the posters here - I like Patrick Chan. I guess I don't think anything has come out of his mouth that's been worse than a favorite Russian skater. I love his skating and quite frankly don't care what he says. I do believe he revolutionized men's skating where you could be extremely athletic as well as graceful and do beautiful choreography. His job is to skate - not give good interviews and often I think he's nervous when he answers questions or just doesn't think. He certainly isn't the only figure skater with that problem. But - when you're on the top for so long it just gives people a clear target.
I think Chan crossed the line of naive/stupid when he said he would rather skate for China cause he thought they'd be nicer to him than Canada and then he "didn't know" they had human rights issues. Like dude, just no. lol.
Costner. She is simply annoying. Reminds me of an elephant.
Yuna is robotic and cold and has a diva attitude, but I can handle her. Usually going against her, but I acknowledge her accomplishments.
Shibutanis are also annoying. Being siblings they will never achieve any success because of the obvious lack of chemistry between them.
I am into youth, energy and athleticism, not "art". This is sports. I can watch art elsewhere, but sports are supposed to be sports.
Sometimes I feel we are not appreciated for how much work we put in. If my parents hadnt emigrated from China and, say, I had skated for China, things would have been very different. My parents wouldnt have had to make as much sacrifices as they have and there would be a lot more respect for what we do as figure skaters.
LOL. That's not how China works.
