Baltimore County News
Manufacturing, of Course!
Manufacturing, for many, harkens to World War II, when Baltimore Bombers were built at Glenn L. Martin and steel churned from Sparrows Point.
The legacy smokestack industries as we knew them are gone, but Baltimore County manufacturing has kept what is vital to compete in the 21st century: innovation, precision, and a skilled workforce with generations of success in making things.
County Has Largest Number of Manufacturers in Maryland
National Manufacturing Month is more than another name for October. It's a time to celebrate the 14,000 manufacturing jobs in Baltimore County. With 839 companies, Baltimore County has the largest number of manufacturers in Maryland, according to the Maryland Workforce Exchange.
Whether it's aerospace defense, bio tech, industrial, pharmaceutical, information technology, apparel, food, or life sciences, a variety of manufacturers call Baltimore County home. Thousands work at McCormick, Stanley Black and Decker and BD Diagnostic Systems, each with Baltimore manufacturing legacies going back more than a hundred years.
No more 19th century manufacturing and R&D here! For example, McCormick's Technical Innovation Center is equipped with idea lounges, whiteboards and test kitchens - think "Google" for food. The GM plant in White Marsh with its all-white interior, looking as crisp as an Apple store, manufactures hybrid transmissions and motors for electric cars.
Advanced, precision manufacturing can be found on all sides of the county. Middle River is home to Lockheed Martin and Middle River Aircraft systems, which produce advanced global security and aerospace technology. Textron Systems develops unmanned systems in Cockeysville, while Zentech in Windsor Mill is making circuit boards for defense, aerospace, medical, and communications.
On the "delicious" side… there are headquarters and manufacturing for nutrition and weight loss company Medifast, Michele's Granola, and Tessamae's All Natural food products.
Why Here?
So, why do 839 companies make things here? Baltimore County is in the center of the mid-Atlantic market, with a robust freight system, connected highways, a world-class port, and available industrial and flex sites. As these companies grow and implement even more advanced technologies, they find a skilled workforce trained to innovate.
The Education Connection
bwtech@UMBC and the Towson Incubator are cultivation hubs for innovative thinkers. Baltimore County's Fab Lab, one of the only 3-D fabrication labs open to the public in the Mid-Atlantic, is putting inventors and students at the helm of laser cutters, 3-D printers and prototyping. Recently, the Community College of Baltimore County (CCBC) announced a course for Design Fabrications and Advanced Manufacturing – a two year associates degree to give students essential skills in the new world of advanced manufacturing.
The new Sollers Point Technical High School, located in Dundalk, is a great example of what's possible. The high school feels like a college campus outfitted with professional grade mechanical shops where students learn advanced circuitry and hydraulics.
Designing Workforce Training Around Employers' Needs
Baltimore County Job Centers are providing training designed around employers' talent needs. The Department of Economic and Workforce Development is working with CCBC and other vendors to offer state-of-the-art training – usually vetted by businesses themselves – in high demand occupations like project management, health services, information technology, diesel service mechanics, commercial construction and real estate. A specialized manufacturing program is being considered for the upcoming year.
More than Just Conveyor Belts
Manufacturing is not a one-direction conveyor belt anymore. So when you're sitting back after a hard day at work, enjoying a Baltimore County-made beverage from DuClaw or Heavy Seas, think about how manufacturing has changed. And celebrate advanced manufacturing's multi-directional network of ideas.

Kevin Kamenetz, Baltimore County Executive
It's hard to find a longtime Baltimore County resident who doesn't know someone who worked at Sparrows Point -- a family member, a friend, a neighbor, or a co-worker. Over more than 125 years, tens of thousands of men and women worked at the Sparrows Point steel mill, and at many other businesses connected to steelmaking.
The Point provided good paying jobs that supported families for generations.
Working here was more than a job. Whether you were in the hot mill, the tin mill or the cold mill; whether you worked in the office or drove a truck, working at the Point meant knowing that your hard work was making a difference.
Baltimore County steel helped keep America strong -- it was vital to the effort during two World Wars. Baltimore County steel stands in our nation's infrastructure, from the Golden Gate Bridge to the Chesapeake Bay Bridge.
Part of my job as Baltimore County Executive is to step back and look at the big picture, to see how we can make the most of what makes our County great. At Sparrows Point, I see everything we need to bring back jobs for this generation -- and for generations to come.
The basis for our optimism is simple. Sparrows Point has a unique combination of assets that just can't be found anywhere else along the East Coast: more than five square miles of industrially zoned land, deepwater access, and infrastructure and transportation, including rail service right to the front door.
Most exciting are the opportunities for expansion of the Port and port-related uses. We have every reason to believe that the Port could easily bring 10,000 new, family-supporting jobs back to the Point. Advanced manufacturing, distribution and logistics, and clean energy could add even more jobs.
There's one more vital asset: we have people who work hard and work smart. These are workers who know what it means to put in a good day's work for a good day's pay.
Let's face it: being a steelworker wasn't the easiest job. The work was always hard and often dangerous. It took a combination of brains and brawn. But talk to any steelworker from any generation, and you'll learn there's something about working here that created a special bond that will last for generations, through good times and bad.
Shortly after the mighty L-furnace was built, steelworkers welded the "Star of Bethlehem" to its tower and lit it as a symbol of strength, pride and hope. I am pleased that the new owners of the property, Sparrows Point Terminal, are preserving the Star to help all of us, and future generations, stay connected to these values.
Let's join with former steelworkers and their families as we look toward a bright future for the men and women of steel. We can all learn from their legacy.
Rick Johnson, Business Development Representative, Baltimore County Department of Economic and Workforce Development
It's sometimes hard to say why a certain area seems to suddenly become hot for new business activity. In the case of White Marsh and Middle River, the attraction is clear: availability of industrially-zoned land, easy access to Interstate 95, Rte. 43, and Pulaski Highway, and opportunities to find or construct the perfect building that not only meets a company's needs today, but allows room to grow.
The past few months have seen big momentum for these eastern Baltimore County business communities. Here's a snapshot of what's new and what's on the horizon in White Marsh Middle River.
Bottling Group, LLC, a division of PepsiCo, Inc. inked a lease for 25,400 square feet in a new 60,000 square foot warehouse and distribution facility under construction in the White Marsh Business Park. By mid-2015, you can expect trucks to start moving products such as Pepsi, 7-Up and Gatorade out of the new facility and onto the interstate. With high demand for warehouse distribution space, there's room to double the warehouse space at this transportation-advantage site.
After searching for more than five years, Reliable Churchill, the state's largest spirits distributor, opened a new 449,000-square-foot office-warehouse complex off Tangier Drive in the Crossroads @95 complex. Kevin Dunn, Reliable Churchill's CEO, said that "the building and the location are a perfect match. Our new office and warehouse operation is just minutes from I-95 and gives us the space we need to grow and be more efficient. The move to Baltimore County has allowed us to continue deliveries to our customers throughout the region without interruption." More than 500 workers made the move with Reliable Churchill from Anne Arundel County to Middle River.
Vac Pac, a family-owned custom food packaging manufacturer, has moved to Middle River, purchasing a 46,000 square foot building on Middle River Road. Vac Pac designs, prints and manufactures specialized bags and pouches for bakery, poultry, meat, seafood, and industrial applications. Founded in 1949, Vac Pac is a leader in high temperature packaging, holding patents for bag design and enjoys a close partnership with Reynolds Industrial Films. Vac Pac exports finished products around the world through partnerships in Australia, Brazil, Canada, Colombia, Korea, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. "We are looking forward to a vast increase in operational efficiency, and the excellent location will help us serve our local, national, and global customers more effectively, said Matt Tary, President of Vac Pac. "This facility will serve as our center piece for continued expansion and development into new products and new markets. We are also incredibly grateful for the continued support of Baltimore County. Our whole team is excited and looking forward to the move."
What's ahead.
Cheseapeake Real Estate Group has two buildings under construction along Route 43 in the Crossroads @95 business park. A 435,000 square foot Class A building on Tangier Drive will feature ample car and trailer parking. A 100,685 square foot warehouse and distribution building at 11501 Pocomoke Court is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2015. Carpet Consultants, a provider of residential and commercial flooring products, has signed a lease for approximately 18,000 square feet of space. The company, which markets a full range of products including carpeting, hardwood, laminate, tile and stone, intends to relocate its entire operation to the new building.
St. John Properties Inc. is nearing completion of a 51,000 SF Class A flex building at 11630 Crossroads Circle. The location is scheduled for occupancy by March, 2015. St. John anticipates breaking ground on two more office and flex buildings in 2015.
"The business mo" just keeps moving forward.

Long before freshmen Aaron Murray and Zach Mettenberger moved in together as Georgia roommates in the second week of January, the quarterbacks had several chances to check each other out.
The first time was at a 7-on-7 tournament last spring in Murray's hometown of Tampa, Fla. Mettenberger, the Oconee County High product, had already pledged to become a Bulldog. Murray pulled the trigger about three weeks later.
"I know he was looking at me seeing what my strengths and weaknesses were and I was sizing him up seeing what his weaknesses and strengths were," Mettenberger said. "Now we're just trying to learn from each other and get better."
The early enrollees could battle for a starting position at Georgia if not sooner than later but say they don't plan on letting that get in the way of forming a bond as teammates.
They live together in a campus dorm with the other early enrollee, offensive lineman Dallas Lee, regularly eat lunch and dinner together and have three classes together. They will begin spring practices behind senior Joe Cox and sophomore Logan Gray at the position.
"There's no tension between us," Murray said. "There's no, 'OK, I'm going to beat you out.'"
Not so, says Mettenberger.
"We definitely have our moments of tension when we're at each other's throats," Mettenberger said.
"He gets mad at me all the time because I won't clean the kitchen."
Murray, a self described "neat freak," confirms his roommate's account.
"Him and Dallas are a disaster," Murray said.
That's hardly the only difference between the two players who will be part of Georgia's 2009 recruiting class, which officially takes shape Wednesday on signing day.
"They're great kids. Both of them have interesting personalities," said former Tennessee quarterback Tee Martin, who worked with both at the Elite 11 Quarterback Camp and now is New Mexico's quarterbacks coach. "Zach is more of your joking-around kid. A big strong, physical guy, can throw every ball. Aaron is the introspective one that likes to read Harry Potter and he can also play as well. We set them up to be roommates. They really enjoyed each other. They didn't disagree or fight with each other or nothing like that that people may think."
The 6-foot-1, 205-pound Murray is rated as the No. 3 quarterback in the nation by Scout, Rivals and ESPN. He burnished his legacy at Plant High School by returning this season from a dislocated ankle and broken fibula in his left leg to lead his team to a Florida state championship.
Getting around campus in Athens was more difficult. He often needed to stop his moped and take out a map of campus to help him find his way.
Mettenberger is rated a top-15 quarterback. He posseses a big arm, good size (6-5 and 238 pounds) and fewer press clippings. His mother, Tammy, is an administrative associate in the football program. He grew up a Georgia fan.
That's why Mettenberger was ecstatic when Bulldogs offensive coordinator Mike Bobo phoned him with a scholarship offer last February while Mettenberger was buying a TV with a friend at Wal-Mart.
"I was jumping around and people were looking at me like, 'What's that kid's problem?'" he said. "When I got that offer, I knew if anyone would make the best of my potential, it would be him."
Florida State and Boston College also offered, but he didn't get nearly the amount of love from colleges as Murray.
"Aaron was telling me about all of these calls he got," Mettenberger said. "I was like, 'Dang, well nobody likes me.'"
Murray made his decision after attending Florida's spring game a week after he was at Georgia's.
"I left there and called my mom and said, 'I'm ready to commit,'" Murray said. "She said, 'Oh, you're ready to commit to Florida now?' I'm like, 'No, I'm ready to commit to Georgia.'"
Murray said he felt more comfortable with Georgia's coaching staff, which he said didn't pressure him to make a decision.
"Before I committed to Georgia, coach Bobo told me straight up, 'I'm taking two guys,'" Murray said. "He named me the guys and all of them were great quarterbacks so I knew if I was going to commit here, I'd be going up against another top guy in my class."
Murray and Mettenberger started school the same week that junior Matthew Stafford said goodbye to Georgia, announcing he was leaving for the NFL.
Stafford worked with the Bulldogs' new talent at the position at the Elite 11 camp in California, where Stafford served as a counselor.
"Murray is a strong-armed guy, a little smaller in size and real athletic, can move around a lot," Stafford said. "Mettenberger kind of reminds me of (former Michigan and current Arkansas quarterback) Ryan Mallett or something like that. A real tall guy that can sling it around. I think they both are going to be really good. They both have real contrasting styles, but both are going to be good."
Jamie Newberg, national recruiting analyst for Rivals.com, saw Murray play four times as a senior and was impressed with his talent and moxy.
"Let me tell you this, that kid's a ... stud," Newberg said. "I can make an argument he's the best passer in the country. I saw him two times before his injury and two times after his injury. He won a state title on one leg.
"Kid's got a heart of a champion, he's tough," Newberg added. "He does things you can't see in a box score. He's got great leadership skills. He can throw the ball as well as anybody when he's healthy, there's no question in my mind."
Murray's stated goal now isn't to push for a starting job. It's to learn as much as he can from veterans Joe Cox and Logan Gray.
"I just want to come here, learn the playbook, have them show me the system," Murray said. "I'm just going to kill them with, 'Show me this, show me that, show me this, show me that.'"
Mettenberger is ready to compete. He didn't want to wait until the summer to get started - not with Murray arriving in time for spring practice.
"Especially for a quarterback, you want to come in and learn the playbook as fast as you can," Mettenberger said. "When I heard Aaron was going to enroll early I was like 'Shoot, I can't wait another semester and let him get ahead of me.'"

Turns out the helicopters I heard yesterday were not Cal fire, they were police overkill.
Ahh, cheers Greenbeast! I can't claim that it was good ice cream, although the sugar rush was scarily akin to being a bit tipsy. I slept badly, and all today I've felt rubbish. But yes, it isn't something I do every day or week, so moving on. It was the way that I checked it for grains that really cracks me up - oh well, one message internalised, let's work on the avoiding sugar one now

Depression Lies
My GOTD which was sent from a friend due to a conversation on oils. She uses vegetable oil.
I just had a quick read up on coconut oil and it all sounds pretty good but then i just found that the University of Queensland has been doing new research into coconut oil and experts have said this
""There have also been bizarre claims that coconut oil lowers cholesterol, cures Alzheimer's disease and even prevents heart disease, however the research does not support this.
"In fact, coconut oil is full of unhealthy saturated fat which raises bad cholesterol levels, clogs the arteries and increases the risk of heart disease.
"With over 90 per cent saturated fat I would definitely be keeping coconut oil off the menu."
So is it good for you or not? We've always been told to keep away from saturated fats but things change all the time don't they?!
^helenlouise - sigh. what do you do with that? I vote we make a NomNomPaleo similar tshirt that says NomNomSaturatedFats!
My gotd: Just found out the mechanic I was going to has been doing half ass work. Never flushed the brake lines. Didn't oil the bits that needed oiled. Thankfully the new mechanic seems like a gem. Only wish it wasn't 40 miles one way to get to him.

Sinclair Broadcast Group reports:
Ben Carson suspended his campaign for the GOP Presidential nomination Wednesday afternoon, bringing his outsider bid for the GOP Presidential nomination to an end, officials close to the campaign told Sinclair.
Carson, a retired neurosurgeon, briefly surpassed now front-runner Donald Trump in Nationals polls over the summer, but rumors of a concession speech began circulating after poor showings in New Hampshire and South Carolina.
The explanation given for his Super Tuesday event being in Baltimore wasn't that he needed to get a change of clothes. He reportedly was in town for his granddaughter's birthday.
Ben Carson's Official Statement
Carson's statement released today seems to indicate he will make it official Friday at CPAC:
I have decided not to attend the Fox News GOP Presidential Debate tomorrow night in Detroit. Even though I will not be in my hometown of Detroit on Thursday, I remain deeply committed to my home nation, America. I do not see a political path forward in light of last evening's Super Tuesday primary results. However, this grassroots movement on behalf of "We the People" will continue. Along with millions of patriots who have supported my campaign for President, I remain committed to Saving America for Future Generations. We must not depart from our goals to restore what God and our Founders intended for this exceptional nation.
I appreciate the support, financial and otherwise, from all corners of America. Gratefully, my campaign decisions are not constrained by finances; rather by what is in the best interests of the American people.
I will discuss more about the future of this movement during my speech on Friday at CPAC in Washington, D.C.

Travel sans PC
Very long, relevant discussion in the nex forum:
but I point to one particular mentioned item that might work for you:
"Another less expensive alternative. Kingston has a wireless card reader, called Mobilelite Wireless. It can send data through WiFi to tablet or phone. The card reader has two slots, one for SD card, another one for USB device. And you can copy data directly from SD card to a USB device, either a USB stick or portable harddrive. Or if you prefer, to the tablet or phone."
My own experience in Africa was that power was often unavailable, though for me I was on a mountain or on safari most of it, so that was part of why. I opted for a lot of flash memory as it's extremely cheap these days and requires no power/weight. (and don't forget spare battery or two for the camera)

To the Editor:
—The clinical biography of ward patients in hospitals is normally constituted of three parts: (a) the purely medical and nursing bedside record, which is an historical outline in syllogistic order of the progress of the malady from the pathologic point of view, in accordance with the observations of the patient and those who take care of him; (b) the laboratory record, which provides clues to the solution of the problem which only the exact sciences can furnish, and (c) the social record, which provides the social background for the scientific picture and tells of factors which do not lend themselves to exact scientific treatment but which in a real way influence the origin, clinical course and outcome of the disease. That these three essential parts of the patient's record overlap and may not be considered independently by the medical scientist on whom the solution of the medical

The Dogs of Riga
The Dogs of Riga
Vintage Crime/Black Lizard, Paperback, 9781400031528, 336pp.
Publication Date: April 13, 2004
Second in the Kurt Wallander series.
On the Swedish coastline, two bodies, victims of grisly torture and cold execution, are discovered in a life raft. With no witnesses, no motives, and no crime scene, Detective Kurt Wallander is frustrated and uncertain he has the ability to solve a case as mysterious as it is heinous. But after the victims are traced to the Baltic state of Latvia, a country gripped by the upheaval of Soviet disintegration, Major Liepa of the Riga police takes over the investigation. Thinking his work done, Wallander slips into routine once more, until suddenly, he is called to Riga and plunged into an alien world where shadows are everywhere, everything is watched, and old regimes will do anything to stay alive.
"A tale rich in gritty local culture. . . . The plot is satisfyingly seamy, Wallander is, as always, discombobulated and astute." –Los Angeles Times
"Apart from his uncommon skill at devising dense, mulilayered plots, Mankell's forte is matching mood to setting and subject." –The New York Times Book Review
"The writing is spare, the characterization deft, the atmosphere strong and the suspense overwhelming." –Times Literary Supplement
"A gripping, thoughtful police procedural that engages from the first page." –Irish Independent

Yes, exactly! I find this whole "Hardcore" vs " casual" enmity whack! I believe Nintendo turned away from entirely supporting these hardcore players because that audiance was dwindeling fast! They were turning away from Nintendo, dismissing it as kiddy, long before the wii came along!Originally Posted by shiz
I believe it was Sony who made videogames more mainstream with the PS One and the Ps 2. Nintendo just went further with the wii, appealing to a wider audaince instead of to males from 12 to 33. Now EVERYONE can enjoy a hobby that was mostly geard toward the so called, "elete" players, the most skilled ones. Perhaps these eletists fear that their hobby isn't so exculsive anymore.
Nintendo needed some new blood! The idea of EXPANDING your audiance was brillant! I mean why can't these new players become more experienced? What prevents this inevitable evelution of experience? What dose the "hardcore" really fear from these new ones?
The game Cube only sold 20 million units during it's entire 5 years life span! Now look at the wii, it has sold over 13 million units in under a year! Nintendo is obviously doing SOMETHING right!
Finally: I believe Nintendo hasn't abandoned the more seasoned players. There are games on the wii for them, and more are coming!

i find the article pretty good and i agree with it. its not so much hes saying that nintendo is forgetting hardcore gamers, its that that hardcore gamers are an afterthought.
Everything in this signature except for this text was made by Wiired, he is my creator and almighty.

Miguel Cabrera: good at baseball. Fastballs, curveballs, it doesn't matter to Miggy. He hit everything that was thrown at him on Friday going 4-for-5. He lined a couple singles, then smashed one past Ryan Flaherty at shortstop. In the eighth, he muscled a homer over the bullpen in left for his 2,000th career hit. Kinda cool. The big guy even started a 3-6-3 double play in the sixth. What a mensch! How could anybody not like him?
News and Notes
- Anibal Sanchez was just okay on Friday. He got into some trouble in the first allowing a single to David Lough and he walked Adam Jones. He was ahead of Chris Davis 0-2 before he left a changeup down the middle of the plate, which he promptly smacked to right field for a two-run double. Those were the only runs on Anibal's record as he was pretty clean the rest of the way allowing only two O's to reach base after the first and both were walks in the fourth. He didn't return after a short rain delay in the bottom of the fourth. In all, he went four innings, allowing two hits, three walks, and two earned runs. Sanchez struck out three and walked three. Not bad considering it was cold and rainy and he hadn't faced major league hitters since March 12th due to a shoulder injury that kept him out of spring training action. Not bad at all.
- If it's not clear to you already, Nick Castellanos can really hit. He's certainly not here for his baserunning (more on that later). With two men on and the Tigers trailing by two runs in the second, Castellanos was jammed by an inside fastball from Miguel Gonzalez and still muscled a double almost to the warning track in right field. I've seen him take batting practice twice this week and even in BP he goes to right field like a madman. Casty is still not someone I'd call a disciplined hitter—he took an ugly half swing on a pitch that never threatened the zone before making an out against Ryan Webb in the 7th—but you can see why the Tigers have always liked his bat and it should play well, especially at home with the spacious gaps at Comerica. Sweet swing. He finished the day 2-for-3 with a hit by pitch. Good stuff, kiddo.
- Castellanos had a major TOOTBLAN in the second inning. Ian Kinsler singled with Castellanos on second. To say that Casty ignored his third base coach is an understatement because our dude was simply running with his head down looking at the dirt. Dirt isn't even that great to look at, so next time he should pick up his coach because Adam Jones got the ball in quickly and by the time Castellanos held himself up well past third he was toast trying to get back to the bag as Davis cutoff Jones' throw and Jonathon Schoop made the tag. Castellanos is a big moose, so I don't understand why he thinks he's fast but it seems like he does. He hit a long single in the fourth and the first base coach had to give him the stop sign, so the coaches seem to be aware of his aggressive baserunning (Puig-ness). Nick has to, you know, look at them for that to actually matter, though.
- Austin Jackson had a TOOTBLAN of his own in the third, but it was much easier to explain. On a line drive single, Jackson was clearly thinking about two bases right out of the box. Unfortunately, Lough got to the ball quickly and fired it in. Jackson was dead meat. Perfectly understandishable, but you don't run on David Lough, I guess. Former Royal. Arrrg.
- Drew Smyly picked up the ball after the rain delay and looked good in his three innings striking out three and allowing just two baserunners (a hit and a walk). Brad Ausmus said before the game that Smyly is having his start skipped and Justin Verlander will start on Sunday so it was no surprise to see Smyly in the game. He'll continue to pitch out of the bullpen as the Tigers hit the west coast next week. I don't think it's a bad thing at all for the Tigers to watch Smyly's innings closely this season as he threw just 75 innings out of the pen last year. He only threw 30 pitches today. Good stuff, Drew.
- Andrew Romine got his first start and base hit—a bunt single in the fourth—for the Tigers, but his best contribution was undoubtedly in the field. In the eighth, Romine went deep into the hole as a Jones grounder got by Castellanos and showed off a strong arm by getting it to Cabrera in time. It was a fine defensive play and one that I'm frankly unsure Alex Gonzalez can make anymore. It's nice to have Romine in that he's a guy who can play shortstop and isn't 37 years old. Seems to be a big Red Hot Chili Peppers fan, though. He's a little 2000 and late on that, bleh.
- Ausmus lost his first challenge in the fifth. Romine bobbled a potential double-play feed from Kinsler and the runner was ruled safe at second. I thought he clearly lost the ball on the transfer, but the call on the field was confirmed. If anything, Romine might've missed the bag with his foot, but remember the neighborhood play is NOT eligible to be challenged. Ausmus is still undefeated where it really matters, though, and he seems very relaxed watching most of the games so far with his feet up in the dugout. Nice work if you can get it.
- Rajai Davis hit a three-run homer when play was resumed after the rain delay. Cool. He didn't really do anything else worth talking about today and we shouldn't expect many more home runs the rest of the way. Still cool, though.
- Did I mention it was cold? Because it was really cold. You could see the guys' breathe on the field like it was a football game or something. Omar Vizquel, who to his credit wasn't wearing a jacket over his jersey, seemed to be the coldest person in the Tigers dugout. I saw him go right in front of the heater more than pretty much everyone else did combined. Toughen up, Omar. Everybody knows you couldn't hold Alan Trammell's jock.
- Joba Chamberlain stinks. Is stinky. Stunk. He's bad. Really bad. Either that or the Orioles just saved all of their hard contact for him in the ninth inning, which is a pretty dubious theory. Let's hope this is the highest leverage situation he sees all season. Perhaps if we get #NoJobas trending on Twitter some decision maker will see it and act accordingly. No freaking Jobas, you guys. There should be none.
- Ausmus put the super subs in for the ninth inning with the score 10-2. It was like spring training. Don Kelly came in to play first, Tyler Collins went out to right, and Brian Holaday put pads on but that was just to warm up Joba, the scruby-est scrub of all.
- As I'm writing this I'm re-watching the game on FSD and Mario just did his first April in the D read so I figure this is as good a time as any to stop. We get Rick Porcello against Bud Norris tomorrow at 1:05 p.m. I'm sure their parents are very excited.

if anybody has any news on HCM, I would like to hear it.They seem poised to gain.
can't say much other than I'd buy IMH , FB , AHR , or ANH all day long over that one ......its ultra small and its portfolio is mostly junk grade subordinate bonds off residential deals ..............and residential real estate defaults are up to multi-year highs ....
Indeed. HCM is a risky holding IMO, and I hold a small portion of it in my portfolio.They yield is very consistent, but methinks that the caliber of trade that HCM caters to is going to be the first to default... and as the foreclosures/bks/defaults inevitably rise in this "spiraling economy," HCM will be the first to drop.However, I am holding long and forsee a strong 3rd and 4th quarters as their online biz for swapping mortgages has really taken a stronghold and set a precedent for doing biz in the future.
thanks,BD.I have a friend whose been watching this one.I mentioned flying past you before he jumped in.

It's been a week since Gretel and I got back from New York City. On one hand, it feels like yesterday. On the other, it feels like eons ago. The trip was an intense whirlwind for sure.

Dog Friendly Backpacking Near Seattle – Chikamin Peak to Snoqualmie Pass
After waiting until the last-minute to get an accurate mountain weather forecast, I decided my dog-friendly backpacking trip would be an out and back from Snoqualmie Pass to Glacier Lake, at the foot of Chikamin Peak. Part I of our hike took us from Snoqualmie Pass, up the Pacific Crest Trail past the Kendall Katwalk, and to Chikamin Peak where we stopped for lunch. Our lunch spot was on a … [Read more...]
Dog Friendly Backpacking Near Seattle – PCT to Chikamin Peak
I waffled back and forth on where Gretel and I were going to do our 4-day backpacking trip because the fall mountain forecast was changing daily. I decided at the last-minute to go with Plan A - one of the best dog friendly hikes near Seattle - with one modification. We were going to do an out and back hike instead of a loop, cutting out the Kachess Lake and Mineral Creek Trails to Parks Lakes. … [Read more...]
Our Solo Hiking Adventure – Where are we Going?
Finally! The 15 day forecast is showing me the weather through Monday, September 28th. Why is that important? Because I have been WAITING to see what the weather was going to be like over the weekend that Gretel and I will be going on our solo backpacking trip. I knew when we were going for sure but I didn't know where. That was weather dependent. Our trip will be four days and three nights. … [Read more...]
Colorado Road Trip Adventure Part IV – Mt. Elbert
After taking it easy for a few days in Aspen and Leadville (Part III of our trip), Chester and Gretel had adjusted the altitude. However, I was still feeling a bit ill.

I wasn't sure we were going to be able to attempt hiking Mt. Elbert with the way … [Read more...]
Colorado Road Trip Adventure Part III – Aspen and Leadville
In Part II of our road trip adventure, we left you at the Mountain Goat Lodge with a beautiful sunset and two exhausted weenies (you can read Part II here). The next morning we left for Leadville to hike Mt. Sherman. According to 14ers.com, Mt Sherman was one of the "easier" 14ers - mountains with a peak elevation of over 14,000 feet. Somewhere I got the idea that this mountain was easier than … [Read more...]
Colorado Road Trip Adventure Part II – Denver to Salida
It's hard to believe it's been almost a month since our trip to Colorado. My, how time flies. This is part 2 of our trip (you can see part 1 here). When I last left you, we had gone for a hike, visited a friend in Denver, and were on our way south to Buena Vista (pronounced by locals as Be-YOU-na-vista, to our bewilderment). We got as far as Kenosha pass and pulled over to camp in the car for … [Read more...]
Colorado Road Trip Adventure Part I – Seattle to Denver
A few weeks ago we embarked on a 10-day road trip to Colorado with Chester and Gretel. Our ultimate goal was to spend a couple of days in Leadville, CO and hike Mt. Elbert - the highest 14er in Colorado. But first we had to get there. We set off with a general plan but tried to keep it spontaneous. The unknown adventure is one of the best parts about a road trip. We headed east from … [Read more...]

Good morning, Oswegonians and former Oswegonians, wherever you may be reading today's note! It's FRIDAY, Nov. 14, 2008, and I for one am glad it is.
Both the SU football team and the basketball team play this weekend, snow and cold are headed our way, so it should be a great weekend for staying warm and cozy inside!
In today's edition of The Post-Standard, we have a story about the hundreds of county residents who signed petitions calling for the ouster of Social Services Commissioner Frances Lanigan, the new $1.1 million CT scanner that arrived this week at Oswego Hospital, and all the information you'll need about an informational meeting concerning a bridge construction project on Route 104 in New Haven.
There's lots more in today's newspaper, including a wonderful story about a couple from Manlius who will officially adopt identical triplet girls today. You can also find out about the latest Central New Yorker to join the cast and make her debut tomorrow on Saturday Night Live.
That's it for now, but keep checking syracuse.com throughout your day for the latest news.

Former Pro, Shannon Assistant Billy Isaac Passes Away
By Terence Dooley
Retired British boxer Billy Isaac, 45, died tragically on Tuesday after falling through a window at his mansion in Durris, Ireland; the former 2-0 (1) heavyweight boxer locked himself out and fell from a ground floor window while trying to climb into his home. His death is not being treated as suspicious.
Isaac moved to Ireland in 2007, where he looked after his ill father for 18 months prior to his death, but he would often return home to Manchester to help local trainer Bob Shannon. Isaac was a regular face in Shannon's corner and the trainer today paid tribute to the 6' 4'' former fighter as he tried to come to terms with the news of his friend's untimely death.
"Billy used to give the fighters advice as well as working the corner with me," said Shannon when speaking to BoxingScene. "Billy loved boxing. It was his life and he hoped to build a gym on the grounds for local and British fighters. I'd get a call after every fight from him — he was a proper man's man. He did everything he could to motivate the lads and always offered them support, be it in the corner, over the phone or from ringside. Billy was a big lad himself, but he was a genuine, caring person who will be sadly missed by me and the lads at the gym."
Isaac was well regarded within the local boxing community. Tributes have been made about his contribution to Shannon's Fighting Fit Gym; he earned the respect of the fighters who have come and gone during the years he spent training and working under Shannon.
Indeed, in 2010 Ricky Hatton told the Manchester Evening News that: "He was a great inspiration and used to help my training sessions. He helped local youngsters to get off the streets and into shape. He also taught them to be respectful to others. He is a credit to the sport."

It's just a noisy hall, where there's a nightly brawl, and all that jazz. And Ashlee Simpson too. On Sept. 25 the singer stepped into the London production of the hit musical Chicago as fame-starved murderess Roxie Hart (the role Renée Zellweger played in the 2002 film). "It's a blast," says Simpson, who got a standing ovation from an audience that included her parents and sister Jessica. "It's my dream." She's not the only celebrity to feel that way. The Broadway revival, which celebrates its 10th anniversary Nov. 14, has attracted dozens of stars. For actors, "it doesn't get any better," says Chicago producer Barry Weissler. "You're all alone with your audience, and you make it or you fail." How did Ashlee do? Says Weissler: "She bowled us over."

Tony Romo's Bachelor Party Was Where? Doing What?!
I'm sure the theme of the backlash toward Tony Romo in the wake of this interview will be a continuation of the ridiculous "real men don't wear their hats backward" bullshit. But even as a staunch backward-cap guy myself, I must admit that hide-'n-seek at a bachelor party in West Virginia seems pretty close to the seventh circle of lame-o.
Unless ... well, you know, it was the more traditional version of the game involving the groom and multiple strippers. But, according to Romo, it was just 15 guys playing a non-alcoholic game of groping for other dudes in the pitch dark.
Romo says he won two games, which is one more than the total number of playoff games he's won as an NFL quarterback.

I still believe Romo can lead a team to a Super Bowl -- remember when the Rangers would never go to the World Series or Dirk Nowitzki would never lead the Mavs to a title? -- but I also believe his image would be better served with stories like this left in the dark.
The main questions I have from this interview:
*Who the heck is Graham Bensinger?
*Is it just me, or did Candice have the youngest-looking dad in the history of walk-down-the-aisle fathers?

With UFC 135 in the books, we now look ahead to the future.
Jon "Bones" Jones simply outclassed Rampage Jackson in his first defense of the UFC light heavyweight title, as he won by rear naked choke in the fourth round. The dismantling was not as bad as the destruction of Shogun Rua, but it once again showed just how good Jones is.
The light heavyweight division has been one of the most competitive for years. We have been waiting for that one fighter that can take control of the division like Georges St-Pierre and Anderson Silva have in theirs.
Whether or not Jones is that fighter has yet to be seen, but the future looks bright.
Here is a list of fighters that could lead to Jon Jones cementing his legacy as one of the best in the world.

A trio of food trucks will be pulling up to the Camden waterfront every Friday at lunch beginning May 10 and continuing throughout the summer.
Organized by the Cooper's Ferry Partnership waterfront development corporation, "Food Truck Friday," as it's being called, is drawing interest from a variety of gourmet trucks around the region, including the three that will start next week: deli-on-wheels Reuben on Rye, Cupcakes 2 GoGo, and Lil' Trent's Treats dessert truck.
The organizers hope the number and variety will grow once these trucks test the logistics and response.

2016 Canada Border Tour
This trip is sold out. Please check back around the first of the year for information on our next tour.
Our next tour will be in September of 2016. For the first time, we will be visiting the Canadian border. The week-long excursion will begin in Ottawa and explore both sides of the New York/Vermont/Ontario/Quebec portion of the border. We will meet with various immigration authorities and talk with locals as we explore the waterways and lowlands of the Champlain Valley, making it as far east as Lake Memphremagog before taking a circular route back to Ottawa.
Along the way we will visit the Eisenhower Locks on the St. Lawrence Seaway, take a guided tour of the border near the Trout River, and cross Lake Champlain by bridge and ferry. We will pass through several towns on both sides of the border, including the resort of Magog. We will visit a local maple syrup producer and pass by the dairy farms of the region that employ illegal-alien laborers from Mexico and Central America.
We will discuss how Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's plan to remove Mexican visa restrictions might affect illegal crossings across relatively unguarded parts of the U.S. border and hope to receive a briefing from experts about Canada's response to the challenge of Muslim extremist groups. All of this will give us an understanding of the unique character of the region and the specific challenges of securing this area of the border.
The tour will be led by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and CIS Senior Research Fellow Jerry Kammer, who will be joined by Executive Director Mark Krikorian, Director of Policy Studies Jessica Vaughan and Assistant Director John Wahala. Please contact John at firstname.lastname@example.com if you are interested in joining us for this invaluable look at the northeast border.

Testimonials from Past Guests:
"All I can say is top notch, incredibly well-done. These tours are can't miss." - Jim
"Every American should come see the state of the southwest border." - Linda
"The various people we met brought into stark relief the magnitude of the problems the nation faces arising from illegal immigration." - Allan
"You promised we would not get the usual Border Patrol spin job or fed the Janet Napolitano line about how border security has improved, and you were right. We heard and saw at many dangerous border sites from local ranchers, a veteran customs agent, border residents and brave journalists who really knew their stuff, the dismal truth about how our federal government has failed to protect American citizens." - Don
"We thought the arrangements to meet these extraordinary people were superb, as was the guidance and logistics on the entire trip. Thanks for all you did to make our visits such memorable experiences." - Don
"It was an outstanding trip. So much experience and information packed into just a few days. Thanks for the excellent arrangements!" - Sarah

There are so many ways to support our efforts to create long-lasting social change in the Valley, New Hampshire, Vermont, and nationwide.
Whether you spend 5 minutes a month advancing economic justice by becoming a "5 Minute Friend" or share your story for an hour with one of our Story Listeners or work monthly with one of our campaign teams tackling car-title lending or aging with dignity, you are one of the hundreds of people building a movement grassroots change grounded in common faith values.
Kathy Beckett meets with Director Cordray on behalf of UVIP!
A coalition of two dozen faith leaders, and labor, civil rights, and community groups from states that ban payday lending hand-delivered strongly-worded letters to Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Director Richard Cordray on Wednesday, calling on the federal agency to "use its full authority" to crack down on predatory payday lending. Kathy Beckett represented UVIP in the meeting and brought with her more than 400 letters collected from across the Upper Valley and Claremont. READ MORE HERE! Thanks Kathy for representing us so well!!!
UNITED VALLEY--When UVIP started, people from across the area began building relationships through 1:1 conversations. And through those conversations we quickly realized that the "Upper Valley" was not a term that included all communities. So we adopted a name that communicated our dedication to bringing people together across boundaries of all types, including town.
INTERFAITH--All of our work serves to benefit the broader community, regardless of religious (non) affiliation, but the values that guide are work are values derived from our diverse faith traditions. Common values like honoring the dignity of every person and a deep belief in the possibility of change bind us together and drive our work forward.
PROJECT--The word "project" is one commonly used in the world of community organizing. The word "project" in our name denotes that we are an organization committed to changing the world through the process and techniques of community organizing. We believe that when people come together with common values to build grassroots power we have the ability to create real, long-lasting change.
We know real power is built by people power and people power is built through meaningful, values-based relationships. Our organization is made up of thousands people all working hard to live meaningfully. They are connected to our social change mission through our 15 faith-based member groups.
Trinity joined UVIP in 2015 to focus on gathering stories about people living and working in Claremont. A Claremont resident herself, she spends her time connecting with individuals to better understand the community, identify areas of concern, and champion programs that support the well-being of its residents.
In August 2016, Trinity started as the Executive Director, she is responsible for all of UVIP's campaigns, staff and funding.
In addition to organizing, Trinity was an event planner for Advancement at Dartmouth College where she worked to keep alumni, family and friends engaged while promoting the work of faculty, students and alumni.
Cayla joined UVIP in 2016 to develop and coach leaders in building power through relationships across the Upper Valley, as well as statewide. Cayla is currently working with the Economic Justice team on fighting for a higher minimum wage and developing an alternate loan program to predatory lending. Cayla is also working with the Aging with Dignity team, which has been making strides in increasing the quality of life in its final stages. Having just moved to New Hampshire from Indiana, Cayla is looking forward to exploring the community around her.
Beth joined UVIP in the spring of 2016. She has a background in the environmental field, but has found her niche in recruiting Upper Valley seniors to share their unique stories. She finds pairing up storytellers and listeners very rewarding. Along with the UVIP Team, Beth is hoping to make connections in all Upper Valley communities. Sharing stories is a vital component understanding our aging community members. Beth is ready to be sure those stories are heard.

Ingerophrynus parvus
Lesser Toad, Kodok Puru Kerdil
|family: Bufonidae
© 2009 Dr. Peter Janzen (1 of 6)
The tadpoles are small, with the tail usually no longer than double the head plus body length, and a denticle formula of I+1-1/III. Papillae are confined to the corner of the mouth, and the mouth is not adapted for stream-dwelling (Iskandar, 1998). Inthara et al. (2005; p. 78) provide a drawing of the larval mouthparts of Bufo parvus compared to eight other tadpole species of Thailand.
Distribution and Habitat
Country distribution from AmphibiaWeb's database: Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Thailand
Malaysian region distribution from AmphibiaWeb's database: Peninsular Malaysia
Life History, Abundance, Activity, and Special Behaviors
Trends and Threats
Bufo parvus is toxic, with skin extract doses of 100 mg/mouse causing locomotor difficulties, prostration convulsions, and death in 2 hours (Daly et al., 2004). This frog is very similar to Bornean populations of B. biporcatus in morphology and behavior (Inger et al., 1974). Bufo parvus can be distinguished by its smaller size and by the lack of tubercles behind the parotoid gland (present in B. biporcatus), as well as by having a pair of symmetrical black blotches on the back (absent in B. biporcatus) (Iskandar, 1998).
The species name uses the Latin word parvus, meaning small (Iskandar, 1998).

Beverly Hills Fairy Tale House
FAIRY TALE HOUSE, BEVERLY HILLS, originally uploaded by GottShotts.
Beverly Hills is probably the last place on earth that you'd expect to find a witch's house, but here it is!
There are so many beautiful mansions in Beverly Hills that it's hard to keep track of them. But if you turn north from Wilshire Boulevard, up posh Carmelita Avenue, you will discover an extraordinary house unlike anything else you'll ever find in these parts.
Known formally as "The Spadena House," but better known simply as "The Witch's House," this bizarre, whimsical creation was built in 1921 for a movie studio in Culver City. It was used in several silent films, and then moved to this pleasant residential neighborhood in Beverly Hills in 1926, where it is now a private home.
But the small house might as well have been created by the Brothers Grimm.
It looks for all the world like some haunted fairy tale cottage; you half expect Hansel & Gretel to walk out the front door. The yellow walls of the house slope precariously, giving the impression of imminent collapse. Its dilapidated, pitched roof (covered with odd-shaped brown shingles) is pointed like a witch's hat. The saggy, wooden window shutters are hung at odd angles. An eccentric picket fence surrounds the property, made of wavy, warped wooden pickets.
Even the landscaping in the front yard is purposefully bizarre, with gnarled, twisted trees, a wooden bridge crossing a moat, a miniature old mill and a sign (hanging from a lantern) which reads: "Witch's Landing."
This house has to be seen to be fully appreciated, and is indeed one of the Beverly Hills' unique sights. (The local children must have a field day on Halloween!)
Recently, the "Witch's House" had a cameo appearance in the 1995 movie "Clueless," in a scene where Alicia Silverstone wanders past the house (while pouting about flunking her driving test).
The Witches House is not open to the public, so you'll have to be satisfied with driving by the home, or perhaps stopping to take a snapshot of its eccentric exterior.
(In July of 1998, the owners sold the home for $1.3 million to Michael Libow, a real estate agent who plans to preserve the historic house. In his remodel of the interiors of the home, he is adding Gaudi-esque elements to create a 'cottage' feel to it. Also, there is a new intricate garden wall which accurately reflects the textures of the original building… an addition which looks as if it had always been there.)
