TRUMBULL, Conn. — Police took a school bus driver into custody on Wednesday after they say she was caught texting while driving a school bus. Investigators believe Evelyn Guzman, 47, sent and received 1,068 text messages while operating a school bus between April 6 and May 15, 2010.
Investigators reviewed footage from her school bus' surveillance camera that allegedly showed her texting, MSNBC reports. Detectives saw the footage during an investigation of an incident in which Guzman's daughter, Jennifer Davila, allegedly assaulted a special-needs student on the bus.
Davila, 24, worked as a bus monitor on her mother's school bus.
Guzman has been charged with risk of injury to a minor and reckless endangerment. She is free on $1,500 bond. A court date has been set for March 25.

Purify: Deep Cleasning Masque is a water- and clay-based mask that contains a bewildering combination of absorbent and moisturizing ingredients, which makes it inappropriate for dry and oily skin. Even if you have classic normal skin, the fact that this product contains eucalyptus oil makes it too irritating to consider. Eucalyptus has no established benefit for skin, but its tingling effect convinces many consumers that the product they're using is doing something, thus making it seem worthwhile, when it isn't.

Comments about Meaningful Beauty Cindy Crawford Purify: Deep Cleansing Masque:
The poor expert rating makes me question their ability to rate. Due to a serious health condition and treatment for it the medications leave my skin looking almost dehydrated and dull. After using the mask my complexion is always softer, more plump and has a subtle glow which lasts for days. I would not hesitate to recommend to anyone.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The best masque ever!
By Lanna
from Roseville, ca
I struggled with bad acne and acne scars. This masque tremendously vanished my acne scars. I used so many products out there and none of them did the job right. With just one use, I saw amazing results. My skin never felt so healthy and so clear. Thanx Cindy!
I like it
By Miray
from undisclosed
I like this mask. I've used it weekly for over 5 years and while it's not like crazy amazing, it's good enough that I've kept buying and using consistently. It doesn't make me break out, helps my skin feel fresh after I wash it off, and just makes it feel renewed every week. I don't know why the expert rating is poor.
Heavenly Skin
By Julie C.
As stated elsewhere, this masque leaves my skin feeling very soft, yet clean. I have not tried any other product (all skin care) that felt so good on my face. Unfortunate that it's rating is so low but I still love it!
Love this product!!!

I also can't believe that this received a POOR rating. My skin has never looked better.
Cindy Crawfords Cleansing Masque
By Carolynn L.
This product made my skin so soft and silky that even I was amazed. So I'm very puzzled as to why this got a poor rating.
There's a reason we call this our "facial-in-a-bottle" and you'll feel the difference in your skin after only 20 minutes. An infusion of antioxidants and marine extracts purifies, deep cleans and revives stressed-out skin. Dry, dead surface cells are lifted off and skin-dulling impurities are removed – revealing a fresh complexion that looks clear and radiant.

Meaningful Beauty At-A-Glance
Strengths: The company provides complete ingredient lists on their website; good fragrance-free cleanser; excellent lightweight moisturizer with SPF.
Weaknesses: Expensive; the mask contains irritating eucalyptus oil; no products to manage acne, lighten skin discolorations, or effectively exfoliate.
It's impossible to deny that Cindy Crawford's natural-born, unique beauty and style helped establish her as one of the world's most famous supermodels, but, to borrow a word from this company's title, how is that "meaningful" for you and your skin? Now that Crawford's modeling career is not as prolific as it was in her heyday during the '80s to mid-'90s, she's making alternative career choices while still occasionally lending her image to other brands in print ads. That brings us to her cosmetics-related endeavor, where she has a partnership with the infomercial/direct-response, distributor guru Guthy-Renker (of ProActiv and Principal Secret fame). Suddenly you can't be beautiful without Cindy and her tidy skin-care line.
It stands to reason that the next question should be: When it comes to celebrities creating their own products lines (think Lauren Hutton and Victoria Principal) does being beautiful or acquiring fame equal skin-care knowledge? Clearly, they are not associated. Although Crawford may be an astute businesswoman, her cosmetic acumen is sparse relative to her knowledge of how to market herself and her image. Her knowledge of cosmetics does not coincide with what consumers need to take the best possible care of their skin, and the proof is in the products themselves.
Meaningful Beauty offers a small assortment of skin-care products, replete with the usual list of sounds-too-good-to-be true anti-aging, firming, and look-younger-overnight claims. Every line needs a story and Crawford's is that she created Meaningful Beauty so she could share her personal secret to flawless skin with the rest of the world. We're sure we don't really need to mention it, but don't count on obtaining any level of perfection akin to Crawford's, from using her products or anyone else's. That kind of hope in the bottle doesn't exist anywhere in the world. More to the point, given that the most essential way to keep skin healthy is to protect it from the sun, why does Meaningful Beauty offer only one sunscreen? Limitations abound with this line: if you experience breakouts, want an exfoliant, or have skin discolorations you'll need to look elsewhere because no such options exist in this line.
To enhance this line's credibility, especially among those who might be skeptical about Cindy's knowledge of skin care, the company pamphlets and Web site state that the products were developed in coordination with Paris-based cosmetic surgeon Dr. Jean-Louis Sebagh. Apparently, Dr. Sebagh has been formulating antioxidant-rich potions for his celebrity clients, including Ms. Crawford, since the days when she was jetting to Europe for modeling assignments. But if he wasn't giving her a well-formulated sunscreen it was a waste of her time and money.
Nonetheless, celebrities of a certain age the world over don't look younger solely because of their skin-care routine; instead, they rely on strategically administered cosmetic corrective procedures and surgery in conjunction with quality skin care. And they don't have to fly to Europe to get that, because state-of-the-art research and superb, quality skin-care products and procedures are readily available worldwide. It's not the secret of one doctor somewhere in France or anywhere else.
Although antioxidants are excellent for skin, and the more the better, antioxidants alone cannot reverse aging or undo years of damage from unprotected sun exposure (meaning wrinkles), because most of the wrinkles we see on our skin are the result of sun damage, not aging! Antioxidants have wonderful qualities for skin, and we are learning more about their abilities every day, but they are not anti-aging miracle workers, especially if skin has lost its firmness or has begun to sag.
It is worth mentioning that most of the Meaningful Beauty products contain at least one antioxidant in a relatively "meaningful" amount. That indicates that the chemists behind these product formulas are at least interested in more than just adding antioxidants as window dressing. As helpful as that is, what is just silly is how Meaningful Beauty showcases melon extract as their exotic specialty ingredient so that consumers think they are getting something unique that no other company has.
If Cindy Crawford and Dr. Sebagh believe these are the best skin-care products around, they are either ignoring or are unaware of the shortcomings plaguing this line; a little more research would have gone a long way toward making better products.

Comparing Growth Effects of European and North American FDI in Latin America http://hdl.handle.net/10419/19880 Title: Does it Make a Difference? Comparing Growth Effects of European and North American FDI in Latin America Authors: Tondl, Gabriele; Prüfer, Patricia Abstract: FDI from the European Union (EU) ranks before FDI from North America (NA) in some of the Latin American countries. We investigate the impact of EU- versus NA-FDI on the growth rate including about 50 controls. Country specific effects and parameter heterogeneity are incorporated in our estimation. We use Bayesian Model Averaging to address model uncertainty and to select the best models and most robust parameters. Our results indicate that positive effects of FDI are dependent on the functioning of legal frameworks and the quality of infrastructure. EU-FDI is an important, robust growth determinant whereas NA-FDI is not. 2007-01-01T00:00:00Z Long-Run Monetary and Fiscal Policy Trade-Off in an Endogenous Growth Model with Transaction Costs http://hdl.handle.net/10419/19878 Title: Long-Run Monetary and Fiscal Policy Trade-Off in an Endogenous Growth Model with Transaction Costs Authors: Villieu, P.; Minea, Alexandru Abstract: In this paper, we study maximizing long-run economic growth trade-off in monetary and fiscal policies in an endogenous growth model with transaction costs. We show that both monetary and fiscal policies are subject to threshold effects, a result that gives account of a number of recent empirical findings. Furthermore, the model shows that, to finance public expenditures, maximizing-growth government must choose relatively high seigniorage (respectively income taxation), if ?tax evasion? and ?financial repression? coefficients are high (respectively low). Thus, our model may explain why some governments resort to seigniorage and inflationary finance, and others rather resort to high tax-rate, as result of maximizing-growth strategies in different structural environments (notably concerning tax evasion and financial repression). In addition, the model allows examining how the optimal mix of government finance changes in response to different public debt contexts. 2007-01-01T00:00:00Z Rural Nonfarm Employment and Incomes in the Eastern Himalayas http://hdl.handle.net/10419/19877 Title: Rural Nonfarm Employment and Incomes in the Eastern Himalayas Authors: Rahut, Dil Bahadur; Micevska, Maja B. Abstract: Nonfarm activities generate on average about 60 percent of rural households? incomes in the eastern Himalayan region of India. This paper analyzes the determinants of participation in nonfarm activities and of nonfarm incomes across rural households. We present and explore an analytical framework that yields different activity choices as optimal solutions to a simple utility maximization problem. A unique data set collected in the eastern Himalayas allows us to closely examine the implications of the analytical framework. We conduct an empirical inquiry that reveals that education plays a major role in accessing more remunerative nonfarm employment. Other household assets and characteristics such as land, social status, geographical location, and credit access also play a role. 2007-01-01T00:00:00Z Trade, Productivity and Institutional Quality: Issues and Empirics http://hdl.handle.net/10419/19876 Title: Trade, Productivity and Institutional Quality: Issues and Empirics Authors: Martínez-Zarzoso, Inmaculada; Doyle, Eleanor Abstract: We estimate the relationship between productivity and trade for a panel of countries over the period 1980 to 2000 using instrumental-variables estimation of a productivity equation. We note that some estimates of productivity gains attributed to trade capture instead the roles of institutions and geography. The endogeneity of trade and institutional quality is accounted for by using instruments. We extend the Frankel and Romer (1999) specification, using real openness to measure trade (following Alcala and Ciccone, 2004), which allows for identification of channels through which trade and production scale affect productivity. The trade instrument is based on a ?theoretically motivated? gravity equation. The instruments for institutional quality come from Gwartney, Holcombe and Lawson (2004). Contrary to Alcala and Ciccone, our results suggest no robust relationship between real openness and labour productivity in the 1980s. Conversely, the relationship between productivity and real openness appears to be robust from 1990 onwards and similarly in the case of institutional quality. We also find evidence implying that countries with low-quality institutions are also able to benefit from openness to trade. 2007-01-01T00:00:00Z

It was very entertaining and the seats were great.
A tribute that covers the music of the legendary and flamboyant superstar. From his humble beginnings to his rise to superstardom. He is the most enduringly successful singer/songwriter of his generation. In his four-decade career, this superstar has been one of the dominant forces in rock and popular music. He has sold over 200 million records, making him one of the most successful artists of all time.
Rocket Man is not endorsed or approved by Universal or Elton John.

Look who strolled in to Canyon Tuesday, helping the Panhandle-Plains Historical Museum kick off their sports memorabilia initiative.
Just your everyday superstar trio.
That was Stinnett native and two-time Texas Tech All-American Donny Anderson, Perryton native and 1974 American League rookie of the year Mike Hargrove, and West Texas A & M star and former Dallas Cowboys running back Duane Thomas.
Mike Hargrove
If you were starting a team from players you've managed, name five at the top of your list?
"Jim Thome and Manny Ramirez are two that come to mind. Roberto Alomar, as well as his brother, Sandy. And then Ichiro Suzuki. It's hard to stop at five but that's a good start."
Do you collect memorabilia?
"Not conscientiously. But probably my most prized possession is a ball signed by DiMaggio, Musial and Mantle. That's a pretty good one. But I'm like everybody else. I have a lot of baseballs signed but I can't decipher the signature. I need somebody to help me out."
Why did you decide to manage the Liberal BeeJays next summer (a collegiate wooden bat league)?
"I really don't feel like I'm done managing in the big leagues. If the right situation presented itself, I would like to do it again. My wife, Sharon, and I were driving back from Seattle (during the summer) and talking about having the ability to give back to people and places that gave us opportunities. Liberal called and I thought they were joking. They weren't."
Did the Yankees call for you to replace Joe Torre?
"No. Can you imagine that?"
Donny Anderson
Why did you wear the No. 44?
"I was in second grade watching a sixth grade football game. A guy wearing No. 44 scored six touchdowns. I became attached to that number that day."
Who hit you the hardest when you played in the NFL?
"Anybody that is crazy enough to carry a football for a living would have a list that probably would fill this room. But there were two guys who hit me often and they were probably the two premier linebackers that ever played. That was Dick Butkus of the Chicago Bears, who I played against 31 times and was able to leave the field decently intact. The other gentleman was voted the top linebacker the first 50 years in the NFL and that was Ray Nitschke. I practiced against him every day. I look back on those days and they helped me become a decent running back in the NFL. You were always looking for 51 and 66."
What was it like playing for Vince Lombardi?
"How much time do we have? As athletes, you don't get beat physically that often. You get beat often mentally. You have to figure how to prepare yourself, and that's where Vince was so strong. He'd use a lot of reverse psychology. He was a great motivator of people .... now was ge hard to play for? Extremely hard. His level of greatness was off the moon. In other words, you could be the greatest player and it was never good enough."
Duane Thomas
Who hit you the hardest when you played football?
"The first one who comes to mind is my father. The second, my grandfather. Actually, it was one of my own teammates, Jethro Pugh. I was in practice lollygagging around and Jethro hit me."
What was it like playing for Dallas coach Tom Landry?
"As long as you were doing your job, he wouldn't say anything to you. He'd only say something to you if you weren't doing the job."
Did you really score the first touchdown at Texas Stadium?
"Absolutely. Do you want me to give you a tour of the touchdown run? I'd be happy to.

SAO PAULO, BRAZIL—An affiliate for Hyatt Hotels Corporation and FSA Group S.A., a Libra Group company, have formed a joint venture entity to complete the acquisition of a site in São José do Rio Preto, Brazil. The joint venture has also entered into agreements to develop a Hyatt Place hotel and with Hyatt affiliates to provide management services in connection with the operation of the hotel.
This is the first hotel to be announced under the landmark master development agreement between a Hyatt affiliate and FSA Group for nine Hyatt Place hotels throughout Brazil. Once completed in mid 2016, Hyatt Place São José do Rio Preto will be the first hotel under the Hyatt Place brand to open in Brazil.
Hyatt Place São José do Rio Preto will be located in the state of São Paulo, approximately 273 miles northwest of the city of São Paulo. The 150-room hotel will feature an outdoor pool, a lobby lounge and restaurant, a fitness center, and approximately 4,306 sq. ft. of flexible meeting space. The hotel will be conveniently located adjacent to Iguatemi Shopping and within easy access to the area's hospitals and clinics.
Hyatt Place São José do Rio Preto will be an integral component of a mixed-use project known as Iguatemi Shopping, which is currently under development by Iguatemi Empressa de Shopping Centers S.A., one of Brazil's largest retail developers.
"We are delighted to be working with FSA Group on the first Hyatt Place hotel in Brazil. Hyatt Place São José do Rio Preto is a critical step forward in our Brazilian and Latin American growth strategy for Hyatt Place," stated Pat McCudden, SVP of real estate and development, Latin America & Caribbean, Hyatt Hotels & Resorts. "Hyatt Place hotels recently opened in Mexico, Costa Rica and Puerto Rico and are seeing strong acceptance of the brand by loyal Hyatt guests, as well as newcomers to our brand."
Hyatt is currently represented in Brazil by Grand Hyatt São Paulo, a 466-room full-service, luxury hotel. Currently under construction is Grand Hyatt Rio de Janeiro, which is scheduled to open in late 2015 in Rio de Janeiro's Barra da Tijuca borough. Hyatt Place São José do Rio Preto will be the third Hyatt-branded hotel in the country.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Secretary of State Colin Powell certified on Monday that Yugoslavia has been cooperating with the U.N. war crimes tribunal in the Netherlands, thus ensuring no interruption in U.S. aid to the Belgrade government.
The announcement came a day after the arrest of former President Slobodan Milosevic, but officials said his detention was not a condition for continuing the administration's $100 million aid program for Yugoslavia. About half of that aid has not been spent and would have been subject to a cutoff if Powell had refused to certify.
The certification also means continuation of U.S. support for Yugoslav loan requests in the World Bank and international lending institutions. Such loans are difficult to obtain if the United States objects.
Powell did not give Yugoslavia a blank check. He said American support for a summer conference of donor countries that assist Yugoslavia would be linked to whether that country continues to cooperate with the tribunal, based in The Hague. The tribunal indicted Milosevic in 1999 for alleged atrocities against Kosovo Albanians, and the tribunal is seeking his extradition.
State Department spokesman Richard Boucher said the United States "would expect'' Yugoslavia to deliver Milosevic to the tribunal, but U.S. support for a donors' conference "will not be based on a single step alone.''
Hundreds of Kosovo Albanians died at the hands of Yugoslav security forces two years ago and about 740,000 others were persecuted or displaced.
Milosevic was arrested at dawn Sunday after a 26-hour standoff and was taken to Belgrade Central Prison, where he was ordered held for 30 days as officials prepare evidence for charges of corruption and abuse of power during his 13-year rule.
President Bush welcomed the arrest and said it "should be a first step toward trying him for the crimes against humanity with which he is charged.''
Boucher said the decision to certify was based on the drafting by Yugoslav authorities of a law on cooperation with the tribunal, the delivery of some suspects to the tribunal with Yugoslav assistance and Yugoslav permission for the tribunal to set up an office in Belgrade.
"These steps need to be fulfilled,'' Boucher said. "We look forward to seeing the full cooperation in terms of international legal matters with the tribunal, passage of the law (and) transfer of further indictees.''
Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., chairman of the Senate Appropriations foreign operations subcommittee, said Monday he views the arrest of Milosevic as a step in the right direction.
"My goal remains the transfer of Milosevic and other indicted war criminals to the Hague to demonstrate Serbia's commitment to the rule of law,'' he said.
The committee's top Democrat, Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., called the certification decision premature. He said, "I am encouraged that the White House is retaining the linkage between further progress and continued U.S. assistance.
"Doing that can help keep this process on the right track.''
The Bush administration, while sensitive to congressional sentiment on Milosevic, is eager for Yugoslavia's fledgling democratic experiment to succeed. It views President Vojislav Kostunica as a breath of fresh air compared with Milosevic and does not want to destabilize his government.
In Belgrade, Yugoslav Foreign Minister Goran Svilanovic said Powell's decision was "expectable'' and represented "confirmation of trust which we have built in just a few months.''
As the situation stands now, Milosevic will stand trial for abuses of power at home and for inciting his guards to shoot at officers sent to arrest him during the weekend episode.
If tried and convicted on all charges pending against him, Milosevic would face five to 15 years in prison.
Boucher said the United States has been encouraging Yugoslav authorities to work with the Hague tribunal to resolve issues involving "sequencing'' between domestic justice and international justice.

PHILADELPHIA college basketball fans can remember the shot. Scottie Reynolds raced the length of the court and made a tough runner to send Villanova in its fourth Final Four.
While it is the last shot, and the celebration that ensued, that people will remember, there was a lot more to that team than just Reynolds' heroics. That year, 2009, the Wildcats were balanced with talent, experience and leadership. Dwayne Anderson was one of the senior starters on the squad, and led it both on and off the court.

Bytejacker: The Show: The Game - Coming Soon to an Internet Near You
Developer, Secret Base, and indie games show, Bytejacker, bring you their zombie apocalypse sh'mup: Bitejacker!
By Peter Boyle Dec 30, 2010 11:52AM PSTTags: PC
Earlier this month Secret Base released a trailer for their upcoming collaboration with the independent games website and internet television show, Bytejacker. The game, Bitejacker, takes place in a zombie riddled post-apocalyptic America and stars the show's host, Anthony Carboni, and his faithful sidekick and camera man, Jon Rivera.
Stuck in a 10 day Groundhogs day scenario, these two buddies have to decimate any of the walking dead that get in their way. Fail and its back to day one. Luckily, even if you die you get to keep your upgrades and 30% of your money.
As you battle through the hoard of flesh eating zombies you'll come across several caches of money and weapons. Use cash to buy new upgrades or save up in case you consumed by the deathly geeks. If you have enough moolah saved up, you can resurrect yourself and continue.
You may have noticed the Meat Boy cameo in the trailer. It's likely by the time you finish the game you'll be able to point out more than a couple similar Easter eggs.
Secret Base's blog says that the Bitejacker is to be coming out soon after the holidays, so keep checking their site for more updates.

This actually looks promising. Awesome sprites and the enemy variety is decent. I thought the meat boy cameo was chuckle worthy! The upgrades screen also seems to be busting out of its' seams which is a good sign for depth.

Penn football coach Al Bagnoli, who has won nine outright Ivy League titles in 22 seasons as head coach of the Quakers, will announce plans for his retirement at a Wednesday news conference, according to a source familiar with the decision.
The same source said Bagnoli would coach the 2014 season and then be succeeded by longtime Penn defensive coordinator Ray Priore.
"This has been in the works," the source said.
It comes at a time of change in Penn's athletic department, with athletic director Steve Bilsky retiring, to be replaced July 1 by Loyola of Chicago AD M. Grace Calhoun. Bilsky, who is taking over as executive director of the Big Five, will make a personnel announcement on Wednesday, according to a university news release.

Wow, Auntie Di!! You made my house smell like a bakery with this recipe of yours. This is SOOOOO GOOD - "addictive" is the word!! I made this a few days back. I substituted the oil with butter and the sour cream with low-fat plain yogurt(beaten). Since I do not have nutmeg, I doubled the quantity of cinnamon and it went well. I did leave out the lemon rind though, since, at my place, nobody would have anything with any rind in it. I did add a handful of raisins to this. Karen Wilson, my adorable friend from RAK, sent me a packet of chopped pecans that found their way into this bread! Thanks so much for sharing this moist and yummy bread.
This is to die for! I had some pears to use up and decided to try it. I made it exactly as directed except I didn't have any lemon rind so I just left it out. It was very easy to make - I whipped it up after dinner the other night and the smell was incredibly good. I did have to bake it longer than an hour (might be my oven). It's very moist and delicious. It keeps well in the refrigerator and I've been eating it every day (so much for my low carb diet!) I think I'll try it with walnuts next time and there will be a next time! This will be a great gift for next Christmas (I'll make small loaves) since it keeps so well. Thanks for the great recipe!
This review is from someone who will not eat a pear out of her hand, but because my husband loves them decided to try this bread (am addicted to this sort of treat). This is excellent, moist, flavorful and keeps well. Thanks for putting this where others can add it to their files.

By now, Boston Red Sox fans have come to grips with the fact that their team doesn't seem to be going anywhere this season. At 57-59, the Red Sox have been sunk by injuries, inconsistent performances and bafflingly bad starting pitching.
But even more surprising than the unpredictability of the Red Sox has been the consistency of the Baltimore Orioles. The team that everyone thought would fade away has not only stayed in the hunt, it's currently leading the American League wild-card race at 62-53, nine games over .500.
The Orioles, who host a three-game series against the Red Sox starting Tuesday, have a minus-49 run differential this season, which is the fourth-worst in the American League. The Red Sox, on the other hand, are at plus-41, which is tied for fourth-best in the league.
How is the disparity explained? It's simple. The Red Sox are a middling 12-14 in one-run games and just 2-6 in extra innings. The Orioles, meanwhile, have a major league-best 22-6 record in one-run games (including an 11-game win streak that began in June) and are a staggering 12-2 in extra innings. Of Baltimore's six wins against Boston this season, four have come in extra innings.
"From what I understand, this team has some people scratching their heads," Orioles manager Buck Showalter told The Associated Press.
The same observers who expect the Red Sox to go on a run are waiting for the Orioles, who haven't made the playoffs in 14 years, to fall off. But ask yourself, which is more likely at this point? What former Red Sox GM Dan Duquette has built in Baltimore doesn't appear headed to a crash-and-burn ending.
The Red Sox, on the other hand
If they hope to make things at all interesting down the stretch, they have to start winning series. Their last series victory came against the Detroit Tigers almost two weeks ago. They followed that up with series losses to the Minnesota Twins, Texas Rangers and, most recently, a four-game split against the Indians in Cleveland.
The offense has been doing its job of late, especially at the top of the order. Carl Crawford, Dustin Pedroia and Adrian Gonzalez have been hot.
In the first three games of the Cleveland series, Crawford was 0-for-8 but he exploded for three hits and three RBIs in Sunday's 14-1 win over the Indians. He has hit safely in 12 of his past 16 games.
Pedroia has hit safely in each of the past seven games, posting a .467 average (14-for-30) with 3 doubles, 4 RBIs and 8 runs scored in that stretch.
Gonzalez has been one of the league's best hitters since the All-Star break, especially in the month of August. He's hitting .422 (19-for-45) with 3 homers, 8 doubles and 18 RBIs in the last 12 games.
The fact remains, though, that the plight of the Red Sox will depend on starting pitching.
Josh Beckett, who was hammered for eight runs over five innings in his most recent start, will get the ball Tuesday against the Orioles' Wei-Yin Chen (10-7, 3.79). Beckett has lost his last three starts against Baltimore, including a 2-1 loss on June 6, when he allowed only two runs on five hits in eight innings.
Beckett has a 5-3 record with a 3.61 ERA in 12 career starts at Camden Yards. The right-hander pitches well there and has lasted at least six innings in 11 starts at Camden, including his past seven.
Chen posted his best outing of the season in that June 6 game at Fenway Park, allowing only one run on seven hits in seven innings. He is coming off his worst outing of the season, however, lasting just 4 2/3 innings while giving up seven runs to the Royals last week.
On Wednesday, Red Sox right-hander Aaron Cook (3-5, 4.70) will face Baltimore's Miguel Gonzalez (4-2, 3.42). Clay Buchholz (10-3, 4.24) will take the ball for Boston in the series finale on Thursday. He will face the Orioles' Chris Tillman (5-2, 3.40).
Besides the struggles of the starting pitchers, who have the fifth-worst ERA in baseball, the Red Sox also are still battling injuries to key players.
It's unknown when David Ortiz, whose OPS at the time of his Achilles strain on July 17 (1.024) was the highest in the AL, will be ready to return. Every time it appears he is close to being activated, the injury does not respond well to his daily workouts and treatments, forcing a longer stay on the DL.
"It's not healing," Ortiz told reporters in Cleveland on Sunday. "I thought I was getting there and it's still sore and I still can't run. I'm doing the best I can with it."
There was also news out of Cleveland on Sunday that Crawford's surgically repaired wrist has been bothering him. He's already dealing with the likelihood of Tommy John elbow surgery during the offseason, and now the wrist is an issue again.
Who knows, maybe the Sox will knock the Orioles back a peg by sweeping the series in Baltimore and using that as a springboard to make a run of their own. Maybe the Sox will get some good news on the injury front and finally get some consistent starting pitching to build on. And maybe the overachieving Orioles' luck will finally run out. The odds say it's bound to happen.
Just don't count on it.

7 Things You Can Do To Create A Remarkable (Not Meh) Panel Presentation
It's a good idea to prepare your panel by having a pre-event briefing that convenes all of your panelists in one place or at one time. On the day of the panel, keep your introduction for each panelist brief. Rather than simply regurgitating a name, title, and company - your audience will likely already have that handy in a session description or similar - convey instead their perspective or point of view in a single sentence: Why is this person passionate about the subject at hand? What's their angle on an issue?

Satellite Retrievals of GPP using the Photochemical Reflectance Index (PRI): Off-nadir MODIS Twice per day; Nadir Hyperion paired with fAPARchI
Dr. Elizabeth Middleton & Dr. Qingyuan Zhang
The first study highlights the value of satellite high spectral resolution data, off-nadir directional reflectance observations, and the value of pairing morning and afternoon satellite observations to monitor stress responses that inhibit carbon uptake in Canadian forest ecosystems. In addition, we show that MODIS-PRI values, when derived from either: (i) forward views only, or (ii) Terra/Aqua same day (any view) combined observations, provided more accurate estimates of tower-measured daily LUE than those derived from either nadir or backscatter views or those calculated by the widely used semi-operational MODIS GPP model (MOD17) which is based on a theoretical maximum LUE and environmental data. Consequently, we demonstrate the importance of diurnal as well as off-nadir satellite observations for detecting vegetation physiological processes.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. -- By 2004, 20% of U.S. households will purchase replenishable groceries on-line, triggering what Forrester Research here called "the biggest channel erosion since suburban supermarkets replaced the mom-and-pop store." In a report released this month by Forrester, analyst Robert Rubin projected that U.S. households will spend $27.1 billion by 2004 on "replenishables" -- food, beverages, household supplies and health and beauty aids. Consumers spent $1.1 billion on-line for ...

'The Hangover Part 3': A visit to the set of the deeper, darker comedy threequel
What to expect: killer cocks, a 'dangerous' John Goodman and...existential crises?
"You guys want anything to drink?" asks Zach Galifianakis as we filter into his trailer. "Water, teas, Diet Coke and bourbon. Anybody want a drink?"
One journalist requests a Diet Coke and makes himself right at home, which is an easy thing to do with Zach Galifianakis. Me, I'm tempted to bring up how he gave me $20 at Comic-Con last year, but I decide not to go there. We only have 15 minutes, after all, and there are a whole lot of questions to be vaguely answered.
"I think in all the movies, the character Alan is the catalyst for things to go wrong," says Galifianakis. "And this movie is Alan coping with the things that he's done wrong and coming to grips with that. So there's the other side of it, not just the mishaps of the character, it's also him trying to improve himself, which is kind of fun to do."
"Like a coming-of-age –-" begins one reporter.
"Well, it's hard to come of age when you're forty-three," Galifianakis cuts in. "The character's forty-three. I'm obviously twenty-two years old."
"We saw there were some photos from one of the sets on the highway that seemed like Alan had crashed a car on the freeway," another journalist asks. "Is there anything you can say about that scene at all?"
"No, because I think it's probably better to leave it be," Galifianakis answers. "Just like any kind of comedy stuff, there needs to be an element of surprise. Alan messes up again. But it's a lot more detailed than that. I'll let you-- I'll give you a little bit of a taste. It's a lot more extravagant than just a car mishap. There's something else."
Ok, we'll take it. So will we be seeing more of Alan's family in this installment, as Mazin had hinted at earlier?
"Yeah, there's more of that in this one for sure" says Galifinakais. "You go a little deeper with that stuff in this one, I think. As deep as we can get. I mean, I don't want to oversell it that we're doing a Merchant Ivory film here. More like Merchant Ivory Wayans. Happy? Old soundbite for ya!...I'm sure I've used it before for other things."
(Note: A quick Google search reveals that "Merchant Ivory Wayans" is indeed a tried-and-true Galifianakis catchphrase.)
One theme running through the course of our visit was the idea that "The Hangover Part III" uses Alan's inner demons as fuel for the film's wacky plot mechanics - and that the emotionally-stunted loose cannon will be forced to reckon with those demons by movie's end.
"We let character really drive it, and Alan's character, in particular," Mazin had told us earlier. "I mean, if you think about it, he's a deeply disturbed person and he needs help, and this movie is going to attempt to help him, I think."
Echoes Galifianakis: "The surprise, I think, as far as the storytelling goes, is probably the coping with Alan's past tragedies. …He's being reminded that he's this person and he's kind of forced to seek help."
Oh, dear. Are we heading into tearjerker territory here?
"You know, I hope so," says Galifianakis. "It depends on the edit. You never know which strings-- It's a comedy. I think making someone emotional and crying in one scene and then funny the next is really fun to watch. And not a lot of comedies show that emotional side. But for me, I like to show that kind of thing because it humanizes this idiot, Alan. So hopefully that will be part of it. You never know. I know we shot some stuff that could be a little touching."
"'The Hangover Part III: Alan's Existential Crisis." I don't know about you, but I'm getting emotional already.

42 year old veteran German cyclist Jens Voigt has finally announced he plans to retire from the sport after the Tour of Utah and the US Pro Challenge.
The Tour de France came to a thrilling end yesterday, the trip from Yorkshire to Paris was Jens Voigt final hurrah in Le Tour and we'll be sad to see him go.
Jens has become a huge fan favourite for his charismatic personality and his cheeky antics, here's some of the things we love about him:
"Shut up legs!"
No pain no gain...

Sylvester Stallone trained for six months to get in shape for his role.
The bout between Rocky and Dixon was filmed with actors Sylvester Stallone and Antonio Tarver really hitting one another. According to Stallone, not a single punch in the fight was pulled, and every hit on film was a hit for real. Furthermore, Stallone has revealed that the scene where Rocky is knocked down for a 9 count, and is trying to get to his feet by taking hold of the rope, but is having difficulty focusing on it, is completely genuine; Tarver really did knock him down, and he really couldn't get up.
According to Sylvester Stallone, the shot of Rocky standing alone on the museum steps before the second set of end credits was actually filmed without him even knowing.
This is the only movie in the Rocky series not to begin with Rocky in a boxing match.
According to her gravestone, Adrian Balboa's death was on 11 January 2002.
The only Rocky movie where the famous red, white, and blue boxing trunks aren't being worn, even though the trunks are briefly shown through the use of archive footage. In Rocky II, they are only seen in the opening scene, which was the fight from the previous film.
Sylvester Stallone originally wanted to finish up Rambo (2008) before he could finish up Rocky Balboa (2006). However, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) gave him the green-light and Stallone had to put Rambo on hold.
In 2005, Sylvester Stallone published a men's fitness magazine called Sly. Although the magazine only lasted 4 issues, Stallone included portions of his script for this movie, including illustrations of some scenes. The drawing of Mason Dixon does not resemble Antonio Tarver, as the part had not yet been cast.
All of the arena material was filmed in HD to match the HBO PPV look; the rest of the film was shot on standard 35mm.
Although it is not included as a deleted scene on the DVD, Sylvester Stallone has said that a scene was filmed in which Rocky sees a woman that looks like Adrian in the building where Robert Jr. works. He follows her for a while before he realizes it is not Adrian. Stallone decided to cut the scene because he felt that Rocky's loneliness had already been established enough, and that this scene was overkill.
The computer simulation fight was based on The Super Fight (1970) which pitted Muhammad Ali against Rocky Marciano. Every possible scenario was considered and filmed and the computer decided that Marciano would win in the 13th round. When told of the result, Ali retorted "that computer was made in Alabama".
Andy (Don Sherman), the bartender from Rocky (1976), Rocky III (1982) and Rocky V (1990) can briefly be seen in this film sitting in a wheelchair in the background of his bar cheering on Rocky during the fight. Andy originally had a more sizable role, but the scene was cut from the finished film.
In the scene in the meat factory between Paulie and Rocky, Paulie asks if Rocky is angry because they took down his statue, a possible reference to the real life controversy which surrounded the statue. During the making of Rocky III (1982), a 9ft tall, 1500-pound bronze statue designed by A. Thomas Schomberg was placed at the top of the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Arts. After filming wrapped, Sylvester Stallone tried to donate the statue to the museum but they said they didn't want it, sparking a huge debate between the Museum and the City's Art Commission about what constituted 'art'. The museum claimed the statue was nothing more than a "movie prop", and didn't want it. Local people were outraged, and the statue was ultimately placed in front of the Wachovia Spectrum in South Philadelphia. It was later returned to the Art Museum for the filming of Rocky V (1990), after which it was again moved to the front of the Spectrum.
"Take You Back", the song which opens the film, was first performed by Frank Stallone on a street corner in the original Rocky.
No traditional soundtrack was released for the film. Instead, a CD called "Rocky Balboa - The Best of Rocky" was released, featuring a collection of the best songs from the entire franchise. The release date of that compilation album (26 December, 2006) also coincided with the 30th anniversary re-release of the original soundtrack to Rocky (1976).

'Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog' takes aim at the CW
"Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog," the web musical that Joss Whedon and friends made while the more established branches of show biz were shut down by the Writers Guild of America strike back in late '07/early '08, is finally making its way to television. The CW will air all three installments of "Dr. Horrible" — which stars Neil Patrick Harris as a lovelorn aspiring supervillain, Nathan Fillion as his vapid superhero nemesis Captain Hammer and Felicia Day as the woman caught between them (at least, as far as Dr. Horrible is concerned) — tonight at 9. (And if you're feeling nostalgic, you can go back and read my brief reviews of each installment at the old blog.)
Once upon a time, this might feel like validation of the "Dr. Horrible" experiment — an obscure indie project graduating to a (relatively) mainstream media outlet. Whedon, his brother Jed and Jed's wife Maurissa Tancharoen created "Dr. Horrible" as something to do during the strike, got a bunch of friends and/or former collaborators to do it with them, and made it directly available to fans — first streaming on the official website, then on iTunes, a DVD, etc. While I imagine there are some fans of "How I Met Your Mother," "Castle" or "The Big Bang Theory" (Simon Helberg plays Dr. Horrible's supervillain pal Moist) who might surf past the CW tonight and be surprised to see one of their favorite stars in this quirky musical, for the most part, people who pay attention to the careers of the "Dr. Horrible" principals have known about the show for years, and have already had many opportunities to see it. Now it's just filler programming for the CW, which wants to hold the premiere of "Emily Owens MD" in this timeslot for another week.
At the time, Whedon talked about how "Dr. Horrible" might turn out to be the model for future passion projects that don't fit a particular commercial niche, but there haven't been as many successors — at least, not involving talent this high-profile — in the years since. You can see other projects that originated in out of the way places ("Childrens Hospital" started out as a web series on TheWB.com), and more artists taking control of their material (Louis C.K. with both his FX deal for "Louie" and the way he self-distributed his Beacon Theater concert). But overall, "Dr. Horrible" feels more like a singular event, from a time when all these creative people had nothing else to do, rather than the start of a huge trend. (Though I suppose you could consider the Whedon-directed "Much Ado About Nothing" — also co-starring Fillion, and shot in and around Whedon's house on a micro-budget — as another example of him trying it.)
For those curious, Mo Ryan interviewed Jed Whedon and Tancharoen about the latest plans for the oft-discussed, never-materialized "Dr. Horrible" sequel

One of the key proponents, with Æthelwold and Oswald, of the late tenth-century Benedictine reform movement in England. Born into a well-connected West Saxon family, Dunstan soon rose to prominence at the royal court with the assistance of relatives in the ecclesiastical hierarchy. His early political career was a chequered one, dogged by court intrigue: he served as counsellor to successive Anglo-Saxon kings (Athelstan, Edmund, Eadred), and was at one point in charge of part of the treasury, but as a result of rivalries and resentments he fell out of favour several times. He was appointed Abbot of Glastonbury in the 940s, and it was during this period that he, and his pupil Æthelwold, studied the Rule of St Benedict and the w…

I'm a FTM and I've heard horror stories about postpartum depression and wacky emotions and stuff. While I totally understand WHY that happens and see it as part of the normal childbirth experience, I'm just wondering how BAD others have had it before? I'm afraid I'm going to have this baby and then be committed to a mental institution or something due to the stories I've heard.Ā
So, postpartum wise, how bad was it for you?Ā
Thanks in advance, ladies!
