It's not only Israel's deputy health minister who wants swine flu renamed because of religious sensitivities. Representatives of Britain's pig famers also want the appellation dropped because they fear it may damage pork sales.
Among the Orthodox press here, Hamodia refers to it as "swine flu" but it's "Mexican flu" in the Jewish Tribune.

'Zipper merge' speeds construction zone traffic; don't screw it up
Traveling on Racetrack Road in North Strabane last week I happened upon a lane restriction at Route 19. The left lane, the only open lane, was backed maybe a tenth or two of a mile and everyone had pretty much merged early, leaving a long stretch of the right lane clear in advance of the merge point.
Trying to make sure that no one took advantage by driving up the clear right lane, two self-appointed guardians of fairness and justice pulled their vehicles so as to straddle both lanes.
This is when I yearn for a bazooka. Using both lanes to the merge point, then taking turns (called a "zipper merge") speeds things up by 15 to 20 percent compared with everyone crowding over well in advance of the merge point. It makes sense to use all of the available road capacity in advance of a work zone. The "zipper merge" was pioneered by PennDOT and has been copied in other states.
Merging early slows things down. You want to do the dumb thing, go ahead. You have no right to force everyone else to follow suit.
ICYMI, today's Post-Gazette previews the upcoming Squirrel Hill Tunnel closure and some other traffic restrictions that are on the horizon. And there's more, as PennDOT races to get as much work in as possible before winter sets in.
The westbound Parkway East will have single-lane traffic between Grant Street and the Fort Pitt Bridge starting at 9 p.m. Monday through Thursday for sign installation. Work concludes by 5 a.m.
The ramp from Grant Street to the westbound parkway will be closed at 9 p.m. Monday and Tuesday, as will the ramp from the westbound parkway to Stanwix Street. Then, on Wednesday and Thursday, the ramp from Stanwix Street to the westbound parkway will close at 9 p.m., and a lane will close on the off-ramps from the westbound parkway to Grant Street and the off-ramp from the Fort Pitt Bridge to Commonwealth Place. All restrictions lifted by 5 a.m. daily.
Work on the ramp from Grant Street to the outbound Parkway East will keep it closed through Oct. 18.
Full inbound closures of Route 28 at Millvale start at 8 p.m. Monday through Wednesday, with traffic using the off- and on-ramps to get around the milling and paving area. Work ends by 5 a.m. daily.
The inbound Liberty Tunnel will have a lane closed starting at 9:30 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday. It reopens by 5:30 a.m.
Crack and joint sealing will cause lane closures on Route 51 between the Elizabeth Bridge and Practice Tee Drive in Jefferson Hills after 7 p.m. daily through Oct. 16. Work will conclude by 6 a.m. daily.
Drilling of core samples on Penn Avenue between Broad Street and Highland Avenue in East Liberty will cause intermittent lane closures from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Tuesday.
More drilling will occur on Route 8-Washington Boulevard between One Wild Place and Highland Drive-Leech Farm Road, causing short-term lane closures from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday.
Installation of an overhead sign will cause traffic shifts and brief stoppages at times at Marshall and California avenues, North Side, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays starting Tuesday through mid-November.
Rail grinding on Arlington and Warrington avenues will continue Monday and into mid-October, with alternating single-lane traffic in the work area.
The on- and off-ramps connecting Grand Avenue to northbound Interstate 79 and the Neville Island Bridge will have short-term lane and shoulder closures from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily through Friday for washing.
On Connor Road between West Franklin and Sunridge drives in Mt. Lebanon, intermittent lane closures are possible from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday as crews take core samples for a future project.
Core drilling for a future improvement project at the bridge over Little Pine Creek on Saxonburg Boulevard in O'Hara will cause alternating one-way traffic between Kay Drive and Berryhill Road from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on weekdays through Oct. 26.

In April, the city was ready to begin more than $3 million worth of renovations at the Sturgis recreation facility in East Oak Lane.
Instead, work at the six-acre site did not start until February, after more than nine months of delay.
Philadelphia City Councilwoman Marian B. Tasco, who represents the area, said she suspected the source of the holdup was her opposition to the way Mayor Nutter was handling the potential sale of the Philadelphia Gas Works.
Tasco, chairwoman and longtime member of the Philadelphia Gas Commission, objected last spring to Nutter's request to use $2.7 million in PGW ratepayer money to pay for advisers exploring the sale.

EA taps award-winning composer Djawadi for MOH
Electronic Arts hopes to further engage consumers in Medal of Honor's compelling storyline by tapping award-winning Hollywood composer Ramin Djawadi to score the game.
"The new version of a landmark game always requires a next-level soundtrack," said Steve Schnur, worldwide executive of music and marketing at EA. "But this 'reinvention' of Medal of Honor demanded a composer who could create an epic score that brings the game into a whole new era."
Djawadi is using a blend of edgy modern music with traditional orchestral instruments to heighten the culture clash between the American combatants and Middle Eastern insurgents. "The fact that it is modern day with various locations asked for a completely different approach both stylistically and thematically," he explained.
The Hollywood composer has worked on a number of successful projects, including the Iron Man franchise and the television show Prison Break.

Our Oban Club campsite on Scotland's west coast enjoys a beautifully secluded location hidden in a glorious Victorian walled vegetable garden. The sheltered, level campsite is next door to Sutherland's grove, a Forestry Commission woodland criss-crossed by colour-coded walks and cycle paths. Opposite the campsite is a marina with a little beach you can walk along. This well-maintained, 75-pitch campsite has excellent, modern facilities including a parent and child room, washing up area and a newly refurbished toilet. There's a sandy beach at nearby Benderloch and the wonderful family friendly Ben Lora cafe and bookshop comes highly recommended. Take the path opposite up to the summit of Beinn Lora and you'll be rewarded with fantastic views across to Mull. Oban, known as the seafood capital of Scotland, is 13 miles to the south of the campsite. The town is renowned for the variety and quality of seafood landed in the harbour, not surprising there are numerous great seafood restaurants in and around the town centre. Oban also boasts its own malt whisky distillery and several local micro breweries. You can take a ferry from Oban to the Western Isles, or visit Dunollie Museum and Castle and the Oban War and Peace Museum. Further south, the island of Easdale is well worth a drive for the breathtaking views over the Firth of Lorn.

Cheerful, Creative, Crocheter and Collector of all things Colorful describes me to a C--er, I mean a T. My sweet, left-handed granny taught me (a righty) to crochet when I was but a youngster. My first project was a hideously long scarf for my dad. It seems I just didn't know when to stop--something my teachers told me in school, too! Although crochet and other craftiness have always been part of my life, I channeled my energy and creativity into teaching Jr. High and High School sciences for many years.
When I am not "yarning" (as described by my youngest), I treasure time with my family, friends, running, thrift store shopping, and learning new creative skills.

Letters to the editor: Voter ID solution isn't that elusive
Why not fully accept the voter ID law in Pennsylvania, with the Pennsylvania House, Senate and governor approving an added feature: Issue an identification card to every adult who could possibly be eligible to vote in Pennsylvania.
Spend no more money on lawsuits and no more money would be needed to advertise all the complexities of the voter ID bill. Of course, those who have driver's licenses and other forms of ID would have two sets. But those who do not have such identification cards would have them.
Anyone who would then have such a voter ID could register to vote (if not already registered) and vote in all elections or not vote. Those who do not want a voter ID can discard them the same as unwanted credit cards. I think this will be a less expensive alternative to the present mess.
The voter ID cards could easily be produced in sufficient quantity. They could be widely available at every store and government office without exception and they could be mailed to all.
By doing this one act, Pennsylvania could fulfill its duty by having every eligible person possess a voter identification card.

Let's not debate at gunpoint
If Justin Dillon, organizer of the recent gun rally in Perry Square, and his fellow "open carry" proponents were actually serious about organizing a rally that was not designed to "intimidate or scare the public," they should have stopped to consider a few things ("Have gun, will rally," Erie Times-News, Feb. 24).
Rifles slung across one's back in an urban public park, for example, do not exactly scream "Welcome to our beautiful city!" Couple these images with the "Come and Take It" flag and the "From Our Cold, Dead Hands" sign, and I think you have an overall picture that might be somewhat intimidating. It's a "failure to communicate," if you will, the message of respectful disagreement and compromise that produced the Constitution in the first place.
If the open carry folks want to debate the meaning of the Second Amendment, I'm all for it. I would just rather not do so at gunpoint.

Obama diatribes are baseless
After reading several letters to the editor about the damage President Barack Obama has supposedly done to our country, I wonder which country they are talking about.
When it comes to damage, I look to the do-nothing majority Republicans in Congress who are to make the laws that have gotten our country in the position we are in. We have two off-the-books wars that have cost us many patriotic young lives and trillions of dollars, which were started under our last Republican president.
Do they understand the stock market has gotten back to where it was before the downturn in 2007? The housing market is recovering and home values are increasing. Our economy is improving slowly after we had a near depression after our last president.
I think a lot of this thinking is very sour grapes after their candidate for president lost to the voters who realized what the real issues were and still are! Their selective memory gives them solace, and so it goes.

Casino gambling seems like win-win
Columnist Pat Howard's quaint question about Gov. Tom Corbett encouraging more people to gamble more money in more ways to fund more spending was too general ("Whether through lottery or slots, government addicted to gambling," Erie Times-News, March 3).
Rather than defend lottery players from the lure of an array of nearly impossible jackpots, Mr. Howard could ask why anyone should even bother playing those games. And selling the lottery is neither a win nor a loss for Pennsylvania residents. In the end, revenue will probably not rise, but the privatized service will be a windfall of profits for the few owners of some giant gaming company.
Mr. Howard certainly knows from his own paper, which publishes a weekly total of wagers, that a staggering 97 percent of wagered cash at the casino goes back to the players. That looks like a win-win for government and citizens. Players go to the casino. Each one gets back the vast majority of his money after wagering. A cheap entertainment. The government gets revenue from the several millions of dollars each week that are not returned.
It's a voluntary tax no one complains about.
It is difficult for citizens to complain about taxes when some of those same people can bet and risk losing the cash. Sure, there are some people with a gambling problem, but at least with the casino, the published record indicates the vast majority of people are simply killing time.
One last benefit to politicians: Killing time at the casino means people in government know the citizenry is not really watching public money. Mr. Howard's question wasn't quaint. Maybe naive.

Don't vote for incumbents
Well, it happened. No theatrical, last-minute, where-are-the-cameras resolution. The forced federal spending cuts will kick in. I really don't know if this is going to cause as much of a problem as our normal doomsday experts report, though only time will tell.
The problem I have is with Congress in general. What was its decision after seemingly no resolution was going to happen? The members knew this day was coming since August 2011. They left Washington on Feb. 28 for a long weekend. I guess they didn't have any other issues to work on. I guess the stress was too much. I guess they are trying to make up for the lack of vacation they actually get.
Can you imagine taking the attitude these jokers have with our own jobs. I don't think we would be employed. Hey, let's do the same thing and give these bozos their pink slips. Don't vote for any incumbents!

Gun rights defined
This letter is in response to a few letters I've seen interpreting the Second Amendment. The statement that caught my attention was "a well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed."
Some people seem to believe that the term militia is referring to the government-led military. Some even quote it as being the National Guard.
Now if we look up the definition of "militia" in the dictionary, here is what anyone will find: 1. A military force of civilians to supplement a regular army in an emergency.
2. A military force that engages in rebel activity.
So, by definition, the meaning of militia is a civilian army.
The definition of civilian is a person not in the armed services or police force.
If you intend to interpret the Second Amendment as you have, please understand what the terms mean. Our forefathers truly gave the people the constitutional right to keep and bear arms.

Thousands of paradegoers arrived early Saturday to claim their spots along Highway 395 in Gardnerville.
For many families their spot on the parade route is as much a tradition as Carson Valley Days itself.
Doug McConnell and his group of 16 have watched the parade from the Sweetwater Car Wash parking lot for 13 years.
"It's like the kickoff to summer. I really enjoy the whole thing in general," he said. "My wife started bringing me here 13 years ago. She's been coming since she was a little girl."
His wife, Jenn, has many fond memories of her 34 Carson Valley Days celebrations.
"When I was a teenager shaving cream used to be illegal," she said. "Whenever we saw a cop coming we would throw the cans in the bushes and go back and get them later."
Jenn, 36, has passed on her love of Carson Valley Days to her 11-year-old daughter Rayann.
"It's definitely a tradition. My daughter counts down the days to Carson Valley Days starting at Christmas," she said. "It's got a lot of meaning to me. It's the community coming together and celebrating us as a town."Dominick Gruneich, 9, was in the spirit of this year's "Irish Celebration" theme with his green T-shirt with the saying, "Irish Girls Love Me."
"I enjoy just about everything in Carson Valley Days," he said. "This year's theme is the best. My mom's Irish."
He added that the key to a good Irish float would be children dressed as leprechauns with rainbowsand pots of gold.
Matt Anderson of Gardnerville watched the parade from in front of Napa with his wife, children and friends. This is his 12th parade.
"This is family fun, and the epitome of Carson Valleyness," he said. "Carson Valley Days means kids and community. This is when we all get together and celebrate who we are."
Bob Marsh and his family have watched the festivities from their spot in front of Carson Valley Middle School since 1987. He also hasbeen collecting Carson Valley Days buttons for 21 years.
"I have just about every year. I think I missed one year," the Gardnerville resident said. "I enjoy the parade. It's very enjoyable, and there's a lot of history to it."
Damon Eaton, 36, has been coming to the parade since 1988 with his parents. Now, he brings his family, and they always set up by Derrick Lopez's law office.
"I enjoy the family gathering," he said. "It's a competition to see who can get here first."
His 11-year-old son, also named Damon, normally rides on one of the fire engines, but this year he was content to watch it.
"I like the parade because I get candy," he said. "All the floats are pretty good."
Dutch Flats, Calif., resident Rick Sims drives 130 miles to participate in Carson Valley Days. It has been a tradition of his for 10 years.
"It's the most cheap fun you can have anywhere," he said. "I love the parade. They need a band, otherwise it's a great parade. Definitely worth the drive."

Erie County's flu season nears end
Erie County's flu season is almost over.
Only 10 cases have been reported to the Erie County Department of Health over the past two weeks and two more preliminary cases were found Monday. They bring the seasonal total to 689 cases.
"We're winding down," said Charlotte Berringer, R.N., director of community health for the county Health Department. "Though we might see a few more cases over the next few weeks."
The big news this flu season was the return of the H1N1 flu strain, the same one that caused the 2009 flu outbreak. All but a handful of the county's flu cases were H1N1.
This particular strain affects young and middle-aged adults. Nearly half of all the county's reported cases involved people between 18 and 49 years of age. Only 10 percent were 65 and older.
"We saw many more younger people in the hospital this year," said Howard Nadworny, M.D., chief of infection control at Saint Vincent Hospital. "Quite a few of these otherwise healthy people got really sick and had to be admitted."
Two flu-related deaths were reported in the county this season. It's a smaller-than-usual number, probably because this season's flu strain targeted younger people, said Craig Johnston, D.O., a family physician with UPMC Hamot's Pinecrest Family Practice.
"When younger people get the flu, they usually get sick and miss work, but they don't usually die," Johnston said. "Older people are more likely to die from the flu."
The good news was that the H1N1 strain was covered in this year's flu vaccine. People who received a flu shot either didn't get sick or got a far less serious case of flu, Berringer said.
The 2014-15 flu vaccine will cover four different strains, Berringer said. Most vaccine this year covered three strains, though four-strain doses were available at pediatric and some other medical practices.
"The best way to prevent flu continues to be the flu vaccine," Berringer said. "It's recommended for anyone 6 months of age and older."

£5.2m Galashiels Transport Interchange opening
A ceremony to mark the completion of the £5.2million Galashiels Transport Interchange will take place today.
The interchange will provide a direct ink from the railway as well as forming the town's new bus station and business hub.
The transport interchange will be open to the public on Monday 10 August.
WATCH: Time-lapse of Galashiels Transport Interchange construction
The Galashiels Transport Interchange officially opens today.
Watch a time-lapse video of the construction process here.
Official opening of Galashiels Transport Interchange
After months of construction , Galashiels Transport Interchange will officially open later- exactly 4 weeks before the Borders Railway carries its first paying passengers.
The 5 million pound centre will provide a direct link for the railway.
£1.9m Maryport rail hub plans go on show
Plans for a new £1.9million rail hub in Maryport are going on public display today.
The Maryport Rail Station Hub project aims to encourage sustainable travel along the Cumbrian Coast and improve access to both Maryport Station and the Cumbrian Coast Railway.
The scheme will provide a new 78-space car park located on land currently owned by the Maryport Amateur Rugby Football League Club (ARFLC) and would require the building of a new access road on to Mealpot Road and the relocation of a Multi-Use Games Area (MUGA).
Improvements to pedestrian and cycle links to the station are also proposed alongside new drop-off facilities, blue badge parking and a footway along Mealpot Road.
The relocated MUGA will be built on the former tennis courts close to the A594 and will bring a currently disused piece of land back into use, with a new games area built to modern standards.
As part of the Cumbria Growth Deal secured by Cumbria Local Enterprise Partnership, £1.9m has been set aside to deliver the improvements and create the new 'hub'.
The drop-in session is being held at the Maryport ARFLC today between 3pm and 7pm and provides an opportunity for people to express their views on the proposals.
Plans will be displayed and members of the project team will be available to answer questions. The drop-in session precedes the submission of a planning application for the scheme, with construction expected in 2016.
"People will be able to find out more information about this scheme and view design plans at the drop-in session, so I would encourage local people to come along and see for themselves how we're proposing to improve access to the station."
WATCH: Trains Minister visits
The Trains Minister Claire Perry visited Carlisle today to discuss plans for a new transport hub in the city.
Matthew Taylor reports.
FirstGroup loses ScotRail franchise to Abellio
The franchise to run Scotland's trains for the next decade has been awarded to Dutch rail operator Abellio, transport minister Keith Brown has confirmed.
The announcement comes after current Scotrail operator FirstGroup revealed it had failed in its bid to continue to run the rail service from the spring of 2015.
Mr Brown said Abellio will invest millions in providing an improved service and facilities for passengers and a better deal for staff.
The new contract includes benefits for passengers such as:
- Free wifi on all trains
- 23% more carriages across the network
- Reduced fares for jobseekers
- High-speed intercity diesel trains
- Over a third more seats.
Customer service is on the right track at Carlisle station
One of the region's railway stations has picked up two national awards for excellence.
Staff at Carlisle Station were praised by customers, who voted the station one of the best in the country for dealing with passengers, particularly at times of travel disruption.
Carlisle beat off competition from sixteen other stations managed by Virgin Trains.
Caution urged over broken down lorry
Police are alerting motorists to broken down lorry on the A66 eastbound at Brough, Kirkby Stephen.
The vehicle is described as being on the dual carriageway, just before the summit of Stainmore on the hill/bend and motorists are advised to be aware and reduce their speed if travelling in the area.
Galashiels roads diverted for new bridge
Road restrictions are predicted in Galashiels as a new bridge is built at Plumtreehall Brae.
It is part of the Borders Railway project that will take place 30th May to 2nd June. It is expected that King Street will be closed during this time so that a 500 tonne crane can lift the 30 tonne bridge into place.
Once the bridge is in place, it is said that work will continue without disrupting traffic.
Motorists will be diverted via Windyknowes Road and Hall Street, while pedestrian and local access will be maintained
New Lake District rules for footpath users
Cyclists, walkers and horse riders in the Lake District will see a new code of conduct in place this summer.
The guide has been outlined by the Lake District National Park and encourages right of way for everyone using footpaths, bridleways and byways.
It states for example that horse riders should ride at no more than a trot and that cyclists should give way to walkers and horse riders.

Who gives a damn about your opinion? Or mine? The fact is that many believe the best game to have ever been made was made on the N64.
I want each of the systems to exist when they give you different experiences.
I'm clever, vaguely feminine, a vampire, and I wield Dice. PH33R.
The 3DS and PSVita are both outstanding systems. Wally the Equality Weasel says so.

PS1 was the lions share of the gaming market. Sold way more than both Saturn and N64 combined.
Last gen for example, was close between 3 consoles. PS3, 360 and Wii all sold very well.
PS2 completely destroyed Gamecube and X box as well. Just not as dominating as the PS1. PS3 on the other hand wasn't dominating at all, and the gaming lineup was rather lackluster compared to the previous 2 systems.

Because the ps3 was freaking expensive, had high development costs, and was VERY difficult to develop for. Its not all black and white.

Look on the N64 page. Top 10 games? Not a single one on that list I cared about. At least Sega Saturn had a few, like Panzer Dragon Saga, Shining Force III, and even Dragon Force was pretty good. But regardless, compared to the PS1, they both got dominated. Winner takes all is an overstatement, but one console dominating isn't.

I don't disagree with that. The PS3's cell processor was a pain in the ass to work with for developers. And I hear the PS3 developer kit pretty much sucked. But the bright side is things aren't going to be like that for the PS4, because it will have a x86 based CPU, and a few developers have already said "its not gonna kill us this time around" when referring to development costs on the PS4.
xChaosLordx posted...
zandm7 posted...
So you're basing your argument on "I don't care about these games, so nobody else did"
I happen to know many people who preferred the N64. What if someone didn't care for the ps1 games? You want them to be screwed over so you don't have to pay for another console? Like I said before, you way of thinking is incredibly selfish.
Steam: Tzuba

And that still doesn't mean anything. It still may fail, just because some people see no reason to move on to a new console from the PS3 or 360. We have no idea how the new consoles are going to do. They may all fail.

Karate and Taekwon do do have tournaments they participate on.A black belt may have some tournaments under his/her belt.In which you can equate as either fighting or serious sparring.Your friend does not not know the names you mentioned since he does not follow them. however he probably follow other fighting organizations or techniques such as Muay Thai,Kungfu or UFC,Bellator etc.
Tae kwon do practicioner is not very effective in a street fight against a person who is a very good boxer. And vice versa.

He's only 19 years old and has only been doing it for 12 years, how on earth has he done everything under the sun to do with Karate ?, you do know it doesn't end at Black belt right ?, I'm sure he hasn't touched on 'everything' to do yet and especially as seeing that he won't even do full contact sparring.
Taekwondo I see as particularly useless in street fights, it's not full contact, but a lot of forms of Karate are and they do teach you to punch and kick to the best of your ability as boxing does, if you're good you could easily take out more then your average 'street thug', they don't have to fight out of a silly stance to stay calm in a fight and hit hard enough to put your average joe down, you seem to think that in a street fight they would ask the opponent to stop and run off too go get their Kimono on before they fight.

well for one, they do truly spar.
Kyokushin Karate even spars without padding and protection.
It really depends on where you go to learn. If you go to a fake place, you'll learn all kata/forms and hardly do **** else besides scream loud.
You go to a credibly teacher, you will learn real stuff. Spar for real. So the martial art would come into practical use.

Karate will teach you how to punch without hurting yourself, it's good for self development, it's good for getting and staying in reasonable shape, and it boosts your confidence. It doesn't make you a boxer though. Squaring up as a karateka against a boxer will simply mean getting knocked out to the left or the right instead of straight backwards.

i done taekwondo it screwed up my knees, and my friend actually needed a knee operation.. kicking the way we did was a unnatural movement, and stupid for us too cause we were never going to do any flying spinning heel kicks in the middle of a fight.
if i had to do it all over again, would of started with boxing.. its simplier, more effective, and gets straight to the point no b.s. it really is the sweet science.

I read that someone hates when people act like Bruce Lee would beat top boxers.
Well, I also hate when people automatically assume a top boxer is some bad ass on the street. Zab Judah, a boxer known for knock out power, couldn't even knock out some street punk with a sucker punch in a street fight over a craps game.
So it works both ways. Martial arts works, it depends on who's using it and who you learned it from. If you learn bullshit, your gonna be bullshit. You learn practical stuff, your gonna use practical stuff on the street. If your a timid weak ****, no matter what kind of training you have, your not gonna be successful on the street.
Martial Arts is causing the most damage possible, in the shortest amount of time and getting out of a dangerous situation while taking little if any damage at all. If that means not engaging in fights, so be it. If your attacked; groin strike, eye gouge, throat jab; followed by multiple hard strikes and getting the fuck out of there.
That is true martial arts. Not standing there, squaring up and trying to fight like combat sports.

Watch: Jonah Hill directs Sara Bareilles in funny new video
Strange collaboration alert!
You can't be blamed for thinking of funnyman Jonah Hill -- starring in this weekend's "Moneyball" and the upcoming "The Sitter" -- as just the chubby sidekick from "Superbad" and "Funny People," but the actor has bucked expectations by stepping behind the camera to direct the video for Sara Bareilles' latest single, "Gonna Get Over You," off her album "Kaleidoscope Heart."
The amusing clip features the "Love Song" singer and NBC "Sing Off" judge dancing around an L.A. supermarket, where she rudely turns unsuspecting shoppers into "Grease" extras with whom she can cut a rug. Will the real Sara Bareilles please stand up? Also, clean up in aisle 6.
Watch the video here:
What do you think of the video? Is Hill the next Spike Jonze? Or should he stick to his day job?

Billingsley (11-6) rolled easily through five innings in the humid Georgia heat and, despite his protests, was not allowed to resume pitching in the sixth after he developed a leg cramp.
"He was really good," Braves catcher Brian McCann said. "He was throwing everything for strikes, it didn't matter what count it was. He was throwing any pitch he wanted. And they're better than a really good team. Their lineup one to eight is probably the best you're going to find."
Kemp broke up a 0-0 game in the fifth inning with his 14th home run of the season and knocked in two more runs in a three-run eighth inning. Loney had three hits and is batting .350 with seven RBIs in his past nine games. Ethier also had three hits while hitting in the No. 2 slot.
Russell Martin, Mark Loretta and Orlando Hudson chipped in with two hits each and Jason Schmidt added to his resumé with a pinch-hit single, the first of his career, in the top of the sixth inning.
Scott Elbert took over the mound in the sixth inning and worked into the eighth before he gave up a single and a walk, giving way to Guillermo Mota who also surrendered a single and the Braves only run before George Sherrill got Chipper Jones on a fly to center to end the inning and Ramon Troncoso added a scoreless ninth.
The Dodgers had left seven men on base, including the bases loaded in the fourth, before they finally struck pay dirt in the fifth. With two out, Manny Ramirez collected his only hit of the night, a single to center and Loney beat out an field hit before Kemp boomed a long shot over the center field wall.
"He killed that ball," Torre said of Kemp after the game. "He's one of those guys -- you don't want to compare him or say he's as good as Alex Rodriguez or Darryl Strawberry -- but those types of hitters get the ball in the air and it looks like a fly ball and it doesn't come down. He's got that kind of power. Mike Piazza was another one. You think, 'Good, he missed it,' and it keeps going."
Martin doubled and Loretta singled him across the plate to keep the two-out rally going.
They added a single run in the sixth, again with two out, when Loney doubled to right after Schmidt and Ethier had singled. Loney's ground ball drove in Rafael Furcal, who had singled, in the eighth and Kemp dropped a looping single into center, scoring Ethier and Ramirez.
Loretta and Hudson doubled in the ninth to record the Dodgers' ninth run, the only run of the game that didn't come with two out. Loretta was filling in for Casey Blake who injured his left hand in a workout following Saturday's game. Torre said after the game X-rays on Blake's hand were negative and he may play Monday against Milwaukee.
Casey's unavailability gave Torre only three extra position players and resulted in Schmidt's successful pinch-hitting appearance.
Ramirez was 1-for-4 with a walk and two runs. He also made a tumbling catch of a sinking liner hit in the eighth. A smiling Ramirez, who was booed throughout the series, then tipped his cap to the fans. He was congratulated by his teammates, bowed to fans, then left in a double-switch.
The NL West-leading Dodgers won two of three against the Braves to conclude a 3-4 road trip. "Three and four doesn't sound like a good road trip, but when you lost the first three it's pretty good, especially considering who we had to beat tonight," Torre said.
Both Colorado and San Francisco won but the Dodgers hung on to their seven-game lead.
The Dodgers (65-40) don't admit to even thinking about previous games. "We've got Alzheimer's," Randy Wolf told Ken Gurnick of MLB.com, quick to note he's not making light of a serious illness, just underscoring his club's living-the-moment approach.
Because of the late telecast, the Dodgers sent Clayton Kershaw and Hiroki Kuroda, who will start the first two games in the Milwaukee series, home on an early plane to avoid the anticipated 4 a.m. arrival early this morning.
The Dodgers optioned Cory Wade to Albuquerque and sent disabled right-hander Ronald Belisario out for a rehab assignment with Inland Empire to tonight. Wade had been on a rehab assignment for a right shoulder strain with Albuquerque and technically was activated off the disabled list, then optioned.
If Belisario's rehab assignment goes as well as the rookie believes it will, Torre will have to make another decision. The rookie was a big part of the Dodgers' strong first half, compiling a 2.42 ERA in 43 games until going down with an elbow strain July 6.
Back in the friendly confines of Dodger Stadium, LHP Clayton Kershaw (8-5, 2.76 ERA) gets the call in the first game of the series against the Brewers. Kershaw worked eight scoreless innings against the Cardinals hitters, only for Jonathan Broxton to blow the save. Since mid-June, Kershaw has had an 0.79 ERA and is 5-0 with four no-decisions, holding opponents scoreless in five of the nine.
The Dodgers will face LHP Manny Parra (5-8, 6.50 ERA) who has been charged with nine runs on 19 hits and eight walks in 11 innings over his past two starts. In other words.

Caroline Steffen
How did this ITU and Ironman champion earn the nickname "Xena"? Beyond her numerous triathlon triumphs, the statuesque Swiss star is known for "going to war" on the course — as any warrior princess would.
Caroline grew up in Spiez, Switzerland, a postcard-ready town where mountains meet lake. Maybe that's why she took so readily to triathlon: Before hitting the pro triathlon circuit in 2010, Caroline spent two years on the Swiss national cycling team and 10 years on the Swiss junior swimming team.
She didn't waste any time excelling in her new sport, with a victory at the 2010 ITU Long Course World Championships in 2010 (and again in 2012). She also rattled off a stunning string of wins in Ironman and Ironman 70.3 races, including the Asia-Pacific Championships in 2012 and 2014, European Championships in 2011 and 2012, and Australia Championships in 2011. She currently resides in Mooloolaba, Australia.
Despite her imposing 5'10″ stature and impressive palmares, Caroline is one of the friendliest pros on the Ironman circuit. She always spends plenty of time with her fans posing for photos, answering questions and signing autographs.
She's personable, but equally tough. When she collided with an errant spectator at more than 40 km/h during the Cobra Energy Drink Ironman 70.3 Philippines, she jumped back on her Cervelo P5, and despite suffering various injuries finished with a winning time of 4:23:54 — eight minutes faster than in 2014.
Fans are also drawn to her custom-painted Cervélo P5. She sketched the idea for the basic design on a cocktail napkin, which she photographed and emailed to Cervélo's graphic designer.

Saving the Bay through education, advocacy, litigation, and restoration.
CBF's Eastern Shore of Maryland Director Alan Girard. Photo by Nikki Davis.
Just as Marylanders coalesce around picnic tables to crack crabs in summer, so do people come together to restore the Bay and its rivers back to health.
On three Saturday nights in June, thousands flocked to the streets of Easton with a mission: Get educated about Bay issues, celebrate the progress being made for clean water, and have a good time. Sponsored by CBF and the Avalon Foundation, the fourth annual Clean Water Concert Series exhibited a community who cares about the health of our rivers and streams that lead to the Bay.
"If we didn't have clean water, we would have nothing," says one concert goer who shared her views at the series. Check out this video (here and below) to see and hear what people are saying about the importance of clean water to the Chesapeake Bay region.
One of the many benefits of working together to Save the Bay is the positive impact it can have on the region's economy.
In a peer-reviewed study, economist Spencer Phillips and CBF's Dr. Beth McGee found that the lands and waters of the Chesapeake Bay region provide economic benefits that total more than $107 billion annually. These benefits include agricultural and seafood production, enhanced property values, and protection from floods and hurricanes.
But what if the science-based, multi-state plan known as the Chesapeake Clean Water Blueprint now being implemented is made to fully succeed at restoring the Bay's water quality? Researchers say that the value of these same benefits will increase a whopping $22 billion per year.
The economic importance of clean water is not lost on Eastern Shore residents, including the county and town leaders who represent us. In 2015, CBF and partners brought together local elected officials and staff on the Shore to explore ways that they can work together to implement the Blueprint. With limited resources at hand, localities participating in the Healthy Waters Round Table are now collaborating on several strategic priorities to build capacity for achieving clean water goals without breaking the bank.
"Many local leaders on Maryland's Eastern Shore care deeply about the value that clean water brings to local economies and the region's quality of life," said Talbot County Council's Dirck Bartlett in an earlier statement about the round table's action plan. "But we have a long way to go to meet goals for cleaner water on the Shore. This plan allows for the counties and municipalities here to work together on the most practical, cost-effective clean-up strategies."
Whether it's our local elected leaders or the citizens and businesses that they serve, coming together as a community of people who care is at the very core of the progress being made to clean up the Bay and its rivers and streams. CBF's Maryland Eastern Shore team is proud to be a catalyst for actions that result in less pollution. Please stay involved as we continue to work together to finish the job of saving the Bay!

Western #4 - Angel and the Badman
By 1947, John Wayne was a major movie star. And with Angel and the Badman, he began getting involved in the production of his films. The picture also began Wayne's long association with writer James Edward Grant, who made his directorial debut with this classic Western.
Wayne the producer put together a great package. Locations in Sadona, Arizona, and Monument Valley. And ace cinematographer Archie Stout, who would shoot many of Wayne's self-produced movies. This cast and crew, all working at their peak, make a familiar story (an outlaw tamed by a good woman) seem fresh and new.

Overall, spending on food rose 2.5 percent in 2000, following an increase of 4.6 percent in 1999. Expenditures on food at home were up 3.6 percent in 2000, after rising 4.9 percent in 1999.
The Consumer Expenditure Survey is the source of these data. Find out more in "Consumer Expenditures in 2000" (PDF 215K), Issues in Labor Statistics, BLS Report 958.

Free-lance writer Dan Woog shares a memory of Julio Mazzei, who died on Sunday at the age of 78. Mazzei was best known as Pele's adviser during his New York Cosmos and later coached the Cosmos to the 1982 North American Soccer League title.
I'm surprised Professor Mazzei's death has not received more press coverage in the U.S. He was one of a kind.
The Professor was always very kind to me, both with the Cosmos and afterward. But the ultimate story involved a trip to Brazil for the initial (and only) "Pele Cup."
There were four teams traveling and the Soccer America crew included publisher Lynn Berling-Manuel, columnist Paul Gardnerand myself.
We all rendezvoused in Orlando; from there we flew to Miami (!), Jamaica (where we overnighted, unexpectedly, on a raucous Jamaican Independence Weekend); Manaus, Rio, and finally Sao Paulo.
It was an epic 48-hour journey. By the time we got there, at something like 6 a.m., we were bedraggled, exhausted, smelly, angry, almost mutinous.
There to greet us was Professor Mazzei. He exuded hospitality. He wore a smile the size of a 747, and looked like he had not a care in the world. Judging by his demeanor, we'd taxied in a few minutes ahead of schedule.
"Welcome to Brazil!" he said, in that Portuguese-flavored accent that can make even the most mundane statement sound impossibly exotic. "Did you have a good flight?"
Somehow, from a man called "the professor," it sounded like the dumbest thing I ever heard. But we smiled, and all was right with the world.

Do you plan to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to iOS 7?

We'll probably update the iPad, as that's the only iOS device we have left and it's a peripheral, not a primary (i.e. phone or computer) device, so who cares if it looks a little funny or we need to learn a couple of new tricks, eh?
Definitely not. Having seen it, it's a poor, rather amateur update. Also, interestingly, it does not free up processor capacity which should have been a prerequisite.

CLEARWATER, Fla. - The first two pitchers Ryan Howard faced in a spring game were lefthanded, and that suited Ryne Sandberg just fine. The Phillies manager watched Howard lace a single off Jesse Biddle and smash a homer to deep center off Cesar Jimenez.
This was just an intrasquad scrimmage. But Sandberg expects Howard to spend the spring improving his craft against lefthanders.
"He's talked to me about that himself," Sandberg said. "He's approached me about seeing lefthanded pitching. If he makes the lefthanders throw strikes, in my opinion he can hit balls in the strike zone."
Howard hit the home run on an 0-2 pitch. He said he feels fine, but declined to expound. "It's like that whole superstition thing," he said.

An Op Ed News columnist/photographer who has been collecting tidbits of information about the difficult economic conditions (to use in a planned year-in-review column) recently took a therapeutic stroll on Ocean Front Walk at
With business conditions making the competition to attract customers more frantic, it seemed logical for businesses along the famous stretch of beach in the Western end of Los Angeles County to install "greeters" to lure tourists inside the various stores.
It was then logical to replace human greeters with robots and so they have proliferated along the famous walkway.
If corporations are now persons will robots soon be petitioning for the same consideration? Will they organize and demand higher wages and the right to vote?
These thoughts were sparked by the visual spectacle of one greeter robot who was trying to make things better for her robot family and her robot kids' need for money for a robot college education by augmenting her paycheck with the addition of cash deposited in her tip jar.
A photograph of this astounding visual evidence of just how desperate things are seemed to be a good idea.
Yeah, photos of police officers in riot gear are more dramatic and newsworthy but when there is a lull in such high news value photo ops, the cameraman has to settle for something more mundane with only a feature photo level of interest. The demise of daily newspapers has caused a concomitant drop in the number of and use of feature photos. To old hand "shooters" the feature photo opportunity will still draw some attention. Could that also be true for the Internet surfers?
In the old days, proof of just how good a particular photograph was came when the "play list" was posted. That bit of internal communications at the AP would designate which newspapers with access to both AP and UPI photos had chosen the AP photo. It was an ego-stroke to have taken any photo that got mentioned on the play list.
In the age of Internet news, the concept of the play list has become obsolete and there is no accurate way to measure the appeal of an online feature photo (at least until the Life webstite starts to publish more than just the day's top five or ten news photos).
[We will contact the ME of the BAGnews Notes website and see if he can suggest a reliable Internet source for submitting suggestions and/or seeing feature news photos and then use any feedback as the basis for a future column.]
In an effort to provide some tangible evidence of the appeal of feature news photos for use in a hypothetical debate in the Op Ed News employees lunch room, the World's Laziest Journalist will try to get some digital feedback by increasing the appeal of this particular photo for possible use on other websites by making this offer: This particular photo of the robot with a tip jar may be reproduced on other websites, if it is accompanied by the this credit line: Photo courtesy of Op Ed News.
