Verlander, Porcello will pitch in Cleveland
The pitching assignments are out for next week's series at Cleveland, and as many figured, Justin Verlander will start Thursday's finale on four days rest. Rick Porcello is being moved up, too, and will start Wednesday on his normal rest. Doug Fister starts Tuesday's series opener as planned.
That means Brad Penny will be pushed back a day or two and start next weekend in Baltimore, either Friday or Saturday. Max Scherzer will have the other one, with Fister starting on Sunday.

Verlander has been pitching on 4 days rest all year. What's the issue? There is no difference to JV if there is a day off in there or not. JL's decision has more to do with keeping his rotation in order than anything else.. If JL plays his cards right he can actually skip a Penny start and improve our chances in 7 straight games!!
I'm guessing the issue had to do with whether JL would not take the day off into account and keep all five pitchers in order. Meaning, then, that JL would start the Baltimore series. Glad he's not doing it this way. A) We need to start our stud against the second place team; and B) we should always take advantage of a day off to get our stud in there a game earlier.
Fister, Porcello, and Verlander in Cleveland works for me. Just get some infield defense in there for the first two guys. Besides, if a big league starter can't work every fifth day, the manager is overthinking things.
I lucked out Wednesday in seeing Fister instead of Penny, but the payback will be seeing Penny in Baltimore. I have second row behind the Detroit dugout for one of those games. If it's Penny, do you think it would help if I kept yelling "throw the d–n BALL!!!"
Maybe he won't be so "grumpy" for a night game!!!
I have a feeling though Penny was grumpy on his birthday. By that I mean his day of "birth".
Penny is due for a decent outing and a win. (There, I can be an optimist!)
NOOOOOOOOOO! I just bought tix for Friday's Baltimore game with sole intention of seeing Verlander pitch. Great, so does that mean I get stuck with Penny AGAIN?
CG–I heard Penny is to be skipped.
Thanks, Dan. I can only hope that is the case. This Friday will make five games I've seen this year and if Penny pitches that will mean 3 of the five games I've seen were with him pitching. He lost big in the two I've already seen.
its really a no brainer. verlander will be going on normal rest as will porcello. i was going to see fridays game in baltimore then thought they may do this with the rotation and bought tix for sundays game instead. i am glad i did. should be cool seeing fister start
From what I hear, Penny is a nice guy. Off the mound, I guess. He is due for a good one. If you get into the postseason, you only need four starters at most, sometimes three. If we can just get there, it might be interesting.
I think it was Porcello's game to lose. Why do you think those pitchers are in the bullpen? Because that can't start! Rick is a big boy now. He needs the confidence like JV has. If he gets in a jam, he can get out of it. Now let's score some runs!
I like this move. I just hope JV's arm doesn't fall off.
Tonight lineup:
1. AJax, CF
2. Boesch, LF
3. Magglio , RF
4. MCab, 1B
5. V-Mart, DH
6. Jhonny be good tonight, SS
7. Carlos, 2B
8. Raburn, 3B
9. Avila, C
If they can sweep Kansas. They will out of reach of Cleveland in the series
Another game with coaches and base runners blowing it. Over the past few weeks the Tigs have messed up on bunts, were thrown out at home and on the bases stretching hits, missed infield ground balls, etc. That probably equates to the loss of 6 to 8 games over the past two plus months. A good team can't do that and expect to take first in any division. The answer? New coaches and tutorials on baserunning 101.

Build sidewalks instead
I would encourage all of you who read this and care about nature and preservation to drive to where Morphy Avenue meets Bishop Road and observe all the trees that would be in the way of a proposed road. The line of large old trees extends almost the length of the new road's path. How could the city of Fairhope or Single Tax Colony even consider cutting them all down for one shortcut road? How can they justify such destruction? If Single Tax needs a project to throw some money at, how about helping the city build sidewalks or fill some potholes?
Weather reflects anger?
Listen, terrible snow storms or ice storms are happening across the United States with freezing temperatures. Floods in Australia and a huge cyclone there. Earthquakes in New Zealand. Terrible storms in Europe. Listen. The earth is angry.
Blood drive had good result
On a positive note, with all the negativity in this area, we were very pleased at the turnout for our Pleasure Island blood drive Monday. It was a balanced mixture of winter visitors and local residents. They donated 86 units in six hours. We are indebted to Crico's Pizza and Chick-fil-A for donating lunch to our nurses and dedicated volunteers. Thank you.
Study the numbers first
To the person who called and thought it would be a grand idea for the city of Fairhope to buy the K Center: Are you kidding me? I think they should do some homework and look at what it costs to maintain that building. It's astronomical because the building is in deplorable shape. It needs so much work and costs so much every month to keep running. That's why it doesn't make sense for 170 students. So I suggest they do some homework. I certainly hope the person that called in isn't on the City Council.
Mayor's got talent
It appears that Mayor Small's only talent is getting rid of knowledgeable, good workers. Now he's after our best council person.
Says Small is 'off base'
I'm calling about the article about Daphne Mayor Fred Small and council member Cathy Barnette in Daphne. I'm not a Daphne resident or voter but Small is way off base. If he didn't want her to be pro-tem he shouldn't have put her in.
Make changes for next official
We should follow our rules now about bonding our City Council president. If we think it's not necessary, we should make the change before the next person is elected, but we shouldn't change horses in the middle of the stream just because of Cathy Barnette. I have to agree with the mayor. If the records say she should be bonded, she should be bondable and if not, she should step down and allow someone else to take that position.
Top official's salary cut too?
Concerning Hallie Dixon cutting the budget: If she is cutting the budget, has she cut her own salary like she has done to others?

As authors, we all know it's up to us to market and promote our books. Times have changed, and it's the rare author (except for the big names) who gets much support from his or her publisher. In fact, a lot of publishers are requesting a market plan from the author before they'll consider contracting the book.
I'm sure most of us follow the same path. We read books on marketing. We sign up for Facebook, Twitter, Goodreads, etc. We visit blogs of our friends, invite them to visit our blogs, and watch our numbers on Amazon.
I eventually reached a point where I was forced to ask−how much is too much? Little by little, I found myself spending more time with social media than I was with writing the books that required me to have a presence on social media. I was swallowed up with visiting the same author friends on the same blogs promoting the same books. I mean how many times can you wish someone 'best of luck with XXX?'
This year will be super busy for me with what I already have under contract, planned to write, edit, and have published. Plus I'm the new president of my local RWA chapter. In addition I give back to the writing community by judging contests and critiquing other authors' manuscripts and/or beta reading. And I enjoy giving book reviews as a trade for reviews of my books. It was time to take a serious look at how I was spending my time.
When it comes to writing, I'm usually a panster, but a definite plotter in my life. I tore apart my entire marketing strategy for 2012, went over what I did, what I thought worked, what I thought was fun, but generally a waste of time.
Several online groups I belonged to had become no more than cyber coffee klatches. They had to go. Twitter is important, and so is Facebook. Goodreads comes in third, and possibly (for me anyway) not the best use of my time.
Blogging is good. As long as I have something to say worth reading. Constant blogs about my books would become boring and uninteresting in no time. Hence this blog – well, maybe in part about my books, but more about my plans.
I checked out a few new things I'd learned about in my quest for the 'perfect marketing plan' and will see how they work out. But for the most part, I'm headed off into a better use of my time this year.
We'll see how it goes, and I'll report back next year. In the meantime, I'd like to hear what has worked for you, and what changes you might be making this year.

AUBURN, Alabama -- With the season fast approaching -- and in some cases, like Georgia State, already here -- AL.com's poll series on the 2014 Auburn football team continues.
You've already weighed in on your biggest concern and what makes you most confident, and now it's time to take a closer look at the players.
For the purposes of finding out who fans think will be the Tigers' breakout player on offense, we've eliminated established stars like Nick Marshall and Sammie Coates, opting instead for players who haven't earned a national reputation yet.
And with the running back race still undecided and new faces at receiver and on the offensive line, there's no shortage of options.
Here's your chance to offer your opinion.

Comedian Scott Long is two people. There's "good Scott" and "bad Scott."
Good Scott will discuss topical humor and make fun of current events.
Bad Scott jokes about only one thing: sex.
"You can guess which one's more popular," Long said during a phone interview from his home in Indianapolis earlier this week.
To show the difference between good Scott and bad Scott - and make it easier on the audience about which Scott is talking - Long uses two separate stand-up microphones.
"I call it bi-polar comedy," said funnyman Long, who's been a full-time comedian for almost 15 years.
Long is part of this Saturday's stand-up comedy showcase at Chips and Salsa. The show, hosted by WZYP's Mojo, features a local comedian (it could be YOU, see separate box for details), Chris Dowell (NBC's "Last Comic Standing") and Long.
Born and raised in Iowa, Long - who swears he's not from a family of farmers and has "never milked a cow" - went to college to become a journalist. Not wanting to live in a "small town" covering the news, Long started doing stand-up in the early 1990s. His career began when, after a night at an Indianapolis comedy club, Long thought he was "better than two of the comedians that night."
Fifteen years later, Long has performed in clubs from coast to coast, but prefers the Midwest and South, where people are "connected to the real world." Long said he's been to Alabama a few times, but never to Huntsville.
When he's not touring, Long is a sketch writer for the NFL on Fox network's feature "Frank's Picks," starring comedian and master imitator Frank Caliendo.
Long said his two-mic "good Scott/bad Scott" routine is "unique" in the field of comedy.
But in real life, does Long have more in common with "good Scott" or "bad Scott'?
"I'm both those people," Long said.

The game between Crystal Palace and Bristol City in the Championship on 18th October 2011 at 20:00 takes centre stage for FootyMad's preview analysis.
History of the Crystal Palace v Bristol City fixture
Crystal Palace prepare to entertain Bristol City at Selhurst Park on Tuesday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Eagles are clearly on top, having won 23 and lost only 9 of the 39 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Selhurst Park was less than a year ago, in January 2011, when they played out a goalless draw in a Championship match.

Tim Kabat was a big winner in last week's election in La Crosse, but several no-name candidates also picked up votes.
Literally, no-name candidates such as 'nobody,' 'no good,' 'anybody else,' 'me,' and 'a good old boy.' Those were among the dozens of entries written in on La Crosse County ballots April 2nd. Not too many write-in votes were cast for the mayor's race in La Crosse, in which Kabat defeated Doug Farmer. Greater numbers of write-ins were cast in contests for the county board or circuit judge, where many incumbents ran unopposed. Just for judge, there were votes for Matt Harter, John Medinger, Don Weber, Roy G. Biv, WIZM's Mike Hayes, and 'Ima Crook.'
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) A cool, rainy spring is easing dry conditions in parts of the nation's farm belt that saw the worst of last year's drought. But optimism is being tempered, as that weather pattern has kept anxious farmers in most of Iowa, Nebraska, Illinois, and Wisconsin from planting.
The latest drought monitor released Thursday shows snowmelt and rain replenished ground moisture in parts of eastern Iowa, northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin. Central Iowa counties are improved but still short of moisture.
Rain has helped drought-parched areas of Texas, Oklahoma and Nebraska, but many counties remain woefully dry. There is enough topsoil moisture in much of the farm belt to allow plants to emerge, but no deep moisture to rely on if the rain stops again.
MADISON, Wis. (AP) A group of humane societies has appealed a Dane County judge's ruling that wolf hunters can use dogs. The humane societies filed a lawsuit last year alleging the state Department of Natural Resources failed to impose any real restrictions on wolf hunters using dogs when the agency set up the framework for the wolf season. The societies argued the lack of regulations would create deadly wolf-dog brawls in the woods.
Judge Peter Anderson issued a double-sided decision this past January that hunters can't train dogs on wolves in Wisconsin but they can use them to track down wolves during the season.
The societies filed their notice of appeal on Friday.

Nagel says most of his customers have a permit to carry, so he doesn't mind giving them a discounted meal for demonstrating their Second Amendment rights.

You have a full year to decide how you really feel about fluoridation, before the village puts another fluoride referendum on the ballot. The village board has authorized a new referendum for April of 2014 to settle the future of fluoridation, which was approved by voters five years ago, but shut down by the board after only a few days of operation. Board members have debated since January about whether to switch from a liquid fluoride formula to a powder that's considered safer, but the board voted on Thursday to go back to the old system in use before the suspension. It could take a couple of months before fluoride goes back into Holmen's tap water.
The village of Holmen wants to join La Crosse's sewer system...
Faced with a growing demand for wastewater treatment, the Holmen village board has voted unanimously to link up to the sewer lines used by La Crosse and Onalaska. The DNR says joining a regional sewer system would be cheaper for Holmen than trying to upgrade or expand its own sewer plant, built 30 years ago. However, the cost to the village would still be about 12 million dollars. And the rates for sewer service would more than double for the average household, no matter which option was chosen by the village.

AUBURN, Alabama -- Robenson Therezie has no idea how big he is.
Or how small. Only listed at 5-foot-9, 205 pounds, Therezie made two big, rib-rattling hits in Auburn's win over Arkansas and nearly caused two turnovers despite playing just 13 snaps.
Now that Auburn knows Therezie is eligible, the Tigers have a lot of options at the Star position.
"You couldn't tell he's 5-9, 205," Auburn safety Jermaine Whitehead said. "He plays bigger than that. Hitting has always been a part of his game."
Therezie, who's actually listed at 212, made his biggest mark on the game on a play better suited to a bigger player.
Forced into the interior by Arkansas' blocking scheme -- the Razorbacks were running an unbalanced line, with two tight ends on the left side of the formation -- Therezie found himself 1-on-1 against a tight end on the interior of the line, a situation that isn't ideal for somebody with Therezie's size limitations.
Therezie got low and bowled through Arkansas tight end Hunter Henry, a 6-foot-5, 250-pound player, sending Henry to the ground on his way to a momentum-changing hit on Brandon Allen that led to a pick six for Jermaine Whitehead.
"It was just great effort," defensive coordinator Ellis Johnson said. "He broke through. We'd run that thing three times before and nobody else got that kind of pressure off it, he did."
With Therezie's eligibility in doubt all the way up until Friday night before the season opener, he hadn't gotten much work in the game plan, which limited his snaps on Saturday.
Now, Johnson has all kinds of options.
Justin Garrett, the starter at Therezie's Star position, made four tackles and set the edge very well against the Razorbacks' running attack. Therezie doesn't have Garrett's size, but he adds a penchant for the big play few others on Auburn's defense can match.
"I think he showed he is a starter, but I think Justin showed he's a starter. It's a situation we thought we had last year," Johnson said. "They'll be two of the best we've got in our dime package, with Therezie more on the skill side of it and Justin on the side of it where we can play our dime package and still be pretty stout in the box."
Therezie, presumably, assumes the Star role in Auburn's Dime package that T.J. Davis played against Arkansas, although he's capable of doing more.
Normally, a 212-pound player is a liability against big fullbacks and tight ends, but Therezie's nature -- he played in and around the line of scrimmage in high school and relished contact as a running back -- makes him a different breed.
"You have to be careful size-wise. If he's taking on fullbacks and pulling guards too much, you're not being really smart," Johnson said. "He doesn't have any problem playing up on the edge of the box, because he's so explosive and he's so strong and he loves to play that way — he's a traffic guy."
More importantly, Therezie has a knack for making game-changing plays. After a breakout season in which he led the Tigers with four interceptions and made 57 tackles, Therezie entered this season under the spotlight as a preseason All-SEC pick and a member of the Bednarik Award watch list.
And in his first game of the 2014 season, Therezie showed why he's earned that recognition.
"He's an impact player, there's no doubt," Auburn coach Gus Malzahn said. "He made a couple of big plays, not just the one he hit the quarterback, but he also caused a fumble."
Now, Therezie gets to see what he can do with a little more work against San Jose State.

November 24, 2009
DeKalb, Ill. Even in a down economy, the day after Thanksgiving is a crazy one for retailers as they roll out their Christmas specials and shoppers seem to forget about bleak sales forecasts.
But for the parents and grandparents who will cram the aisles of toys and electronics that day and for the rest of the holiday season, their thoughts should focus on more than avoiding crowds and comparing prices to the sizes of their wallets.
And, unlike the Christmas presents theyre scooping up, this advice is priceless: Some toys are loud and can easily and insidiously damage the hearing of children.
Danica Billingsly, a clinical audiology faculty member in the Northern Illinois University School of Allied Health and Communicative Disorders, will speak at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 2, about the potential for toy-induced hearing loss.
Her presentation, which is free and open to the public, will take place at the Family Service Agency, 14 Health Services Drive in DeKalb.
Billingsly will explain how to know if a toy is too loud, describe the ways ears can be hurt and offer tips on how to prevent overexposure from toys and mp3 players. She also will run down the annual list of noisy toys compiled by the Sight and Hearing Association.
Even the toys that are low on that list are pretty bad. The problem we have is that kids use toys in ways adults dont think about, Billingsly said. When adults take noise measurements of toys, they measure for exposure at a distance of 10 inches. But with children, sometimes they stick their faces right up to things. The exposure is much greater.
That problem is compounded by normal methods of calculating exposure, she added.
When we have measurements that are made with traditional equipment, using traditional calculations, a lot of those are normed on the adult ear, she said. A childs ear is much, much smaller inside.
Billingsly has several tips for parents and grandparents to become smart shoppers and good stewards of their loved ones hearing.
Teenagers who live inside the musical world of mp3 players create a different dilemma for parents, Billingsly said.
The biggest problem we have with teenagers is the length of exposure time. Theyll listen to music eight to 10 hours a day and happily. Talk to any parent of a teenager, and youll find their children are frequently wearing their headphones, whenever they can get away with it, she said.
And todays earbuds arent yesterdays headphones, she added.
Most of todays parents grew up wearing loose-fitting headphones that allowed the sound to bleed; if their parents could hear the music, they were usually quick to tap on shoulders and insist that their teens turn the volume down.
We cant use that rule of thumb anymore, Billingsly said. Earbuds go straight down into the ear canal. Little escapes.
Fortunately, negative press and parental pressure are convincing some manufacturers to put voluntary limits on their equipment. With an iPod, for example, a parent can set a maximum volume and lock it with a password.
Parents who are indifferent about the hearing damage caused by toys and electronic music players should know that noise exposure in children is an insidious condition that manifests itself years later.
Cumulative noise exposure is what causes the big problems. Its what we see in the 23-year-old or the 35-year-old or the 47-year-old who are having hearing loss years before they should, she said. This is about making children healthier adults who are less prone to hearing loss.
The School of Allied Health and Communicative Disorders is housed in NIUs College of Health and Human Sciences.

Zoey Cardoza wouldn't have attended the STEMazing Race Challenge on Saturday if her friend, Anastassia Hofer, hadn't talked her into coming along.
"My dad's always trying to get me to do something like this," said Zoey, a freshman at Minot High School-Central Campus. "But I don't listen to my dad."
Every year, the Minot Public Schools runs an event aimed at introducing girls to the high school's vocational and technical classes, such as welding, auto mechanics, auto body and building trades. Anastassia, a sophomore at Central Campus, attends the event every year.

Eighth- through 11th-graders made use of the paint booth to paint the push bars for the cars they built during the STEMazing Race on Saturday.
"I like the idea of girls being able to do (what some people consider) a guy's job," said Anastassia.
Zoey said the event was fun and she was glad she signed up. Her favorite activity was welding, which scared her a little bit at first but turned out to be fun.
On Saturday, Anastassia, Zoey and two other girls, Jim Hill Middle School eighth-grader Emily Lowther and Central Campus freshman Tucker Lawrence, were using iPads to work on a welding scenario.
In other parts of the Minot High Vocational and Technical Center, girls were testing out the push cars they were building, welding their team name into a push bar and using the paint booth. In the afternoon, the girls raced the push cars they had built in teams of four. The car with the fastest time won.
Jami DeCent, auto tech instructor, said the event gave the girls experience in designing the push car, measuring and cutting two-by-fours and assembling the vehicles as well as welding and painting. The girls also had to give an oral presentation on their projects.
This was the first year the school district held the STEMazing Race Challenge with a push car race. In other years, the event has been called Diva Tech Day and didn't include the same activities.
"I think this is the most fun one we've had," said Pam Stroklund, CTE director.
The events are funded by a grant and introduce girls to non-traditional careers for women.
Stroklund said the event also emphasized skills that are required by the new Common Core and included various prizes.
About 36 eighth- through 11th-graders took part in the event Saturday. On average, about three to four girls have signed up for the district's building trades, welding, auto mechanics and auto body classes after participating in Diva Tech. DeCent said he hopes more girls will sign up for next year's classes after the STEMazing Race Challenge.

The market, which will be open from 3 p.m. until 6 p.m. on Tuesdays through Sept. 27, will be located in the parking lot of Dollar Tree and the old Office Depot at 1922 Cobbs Ford Road. During the market, customers will be able to buy fresh fruits, vegetables, honey and more from local growers.
"The crops continue to produce all the time so this additional day provides the farmers with a place to sell their produce during the week. It also gives the consumer a place to buy what they need if they miss the Saturday market," said Barbara Simpson, Market Manager and Coordinator of Special Events for the City of Prattville.

Fans smother Seattle to celebrate champion Seahawks | SLIDESHOW
Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman celebrates with fans along the packed parade route Wednesday.
More than 700,000 cheering Seahawks fans jammed downtown Seattle streets on Wednesday to celebrate the franchise's first Super Bowl victory.
The turnout was so large that it delayed the parade for about 40 minutes as team buses made their way to the starting point near the Space Needle.
Fans braved the cold to pack the two-mile route along Fourth Avenue, clad in blue and green jerseys, wigs, flags, scarves, banners and signs, and erupting into song and dance.
Photographer Todd Dearinger, 54, a Federal Way resident and disabled veteran, captured some images of the parade:

US military involvement in Syria would stop short of drawing American ground troops into the conflict and would have a firm deadline, congressional leaders agreed last night in a draft resolution that will be voted on today.
The draft document from the Senate Foreign Relations Committee authorises the use of force against the regime for its use of chemical weapons, but sets a time limit of 60 days, with a further 30-day extension permitted unless Congress disapproves of the measure. The measure bars American ground troops from combat operations.
The agreement was struck late last night between Senators Bob Menendez,

CNA grad develops 'Dragon 6' comics for Apple based products
"I've been a geek, pretty much since I was born," says St. John's native Christo Stassis with a laugh.
Stassis just might become the coolest of the geeks once his new app for iPhone and iPad is made available, hopefully later this year.
Stassis is creating a 3D comic book for Mac devices called "Dragon 6," inspired by Greek mythology, his own travels in Japan and an old French poster.
"Growing up, Greek mythology was my bedtime stories, and I've always been into Japanese animation," said Stassis, a first-generation Greek-Canadian.
Having graduated from College of the North Atlantic's digital animation program, Stassis said he got the idea to create the comic book after studying Swiss painter Theophile Steinlen's 1896 poster, "La tournee du chat noir." He decided he'd like to design a dragon in the same style and as he was drawing it, ideas about the character came to him.
One day, he sat down and turned the character sketch into a two-page story, which then expanded into a comic book.
Set in an ancient fantasy world, "Dragon 6" explores the classic theme of good versus evil.
"In my story world, dragons are protectors," Stassis explained.
"There was a goddess who created these six dragons. People looked at these protectors as angels, so in my world, angels and dragons are the same thing. They're based on the various elements — earth, fire, air, water, void and steel — and in this world, dragons controlled all nature, so if they combined their powers, they'd have the ability to change the world.
"As in most stories, you need a villain, and in my story the villain is pure evil, personified. If it controlled the dragons, if it captured them, it could remake the world in its own image, an image of good and evil."
Stassis, who says he's aways enjoyed comic and pop-up books, decided to make "Dragon 6" 3D, and then, after fooling around with his iPhone, decided it would work perfectly as an iPhone and iPad app.
The project is still in the early stages, although Stassis has his layouts, storyboards and characters organized. The next steps, he said, involve realizing the designs and fleshing out the fantasy world.
Earlier this year, Stassis received a professional project grant of $1,200 from the Newfoundland and Labrador Arts Council for the project, which he used, mostly, to purchase the needed software.
Through his day job as design lead at GRI Simulations Inc. — a company which makes training simulators for remote operated vehicle pilots — Stassis is used to working with animation software. Last month he went to the Game Developers Conference in San Fransisco for his work, learning about new technologies in the animation field, things he can use both in his career and with his comic book project.
After drawing his images on paper, Stassis uses standard art programs like Photoshop to create "Dragon 6."
"I try to use a combination of 3D art with 2D hand-drawn art and pictures I've taken of the world to do my backgrounds," he explained.
"I take all the images and I just put them together in Photoshop and then I can move everything around on the screen into a proper layout. The great thing about the computer is once I put it there, if I don't like how something fits, I can move it."
Stassis plans to make the book interactive — for example, touching a dragon on the screen might make its wings beat, or readers might be able to physically move a dragon through the forest to get to the next chapter.
He hopes to have "Dragon 6" completed by late November or early December, and will release it as a free app, in stages at first. Once he gets feedback from users and builds it into the larger, finished project, he plans to charge for the entire compilation.
"As long as I'm registered as an app builder for Apple, I can send the completed app to them," Stassis explained.
"They'll decide if it's appropriate and if it's deemed appropriate, they'll release it into the app store so that anyone can access it."
Stassis' target audience, he said, is people in their late teens and early 20s, people who like role-playing games and those who enjoy fantasy novels.
"People like myself," he said, chuckling. "Cool geeks."
Stassis said although he's concentrating on "Dragon 6" for the time being, he's already got notes made for future projects, once it's completed.

The cadenza in a classical concerto is a curious thing. Originally devised as a way of letting the soloist show off, it became a commentary on the work it adorned, as well as a holiday from it: the soloist could take you on a switchback journey before bringing you safely home. These days, with so many other opportunities for display, its bravura function has faded, so soloists often use it instead as a slot to puff their own wares – as Kennedy does when he injects jazz and Gypsy music into his Brahms.

An economic disaster may be averted, but as Tony Paterson reports, a cultural crisis looms large in Budapest
Although critics in the author's native Hungary have hailed Parallel Stories as a 21st-century War and Peace, English readers are sure to be more sceptical. At 1130 densely-packed pages, it certainly has the heft of Tolstoy's masterpiece, but there the similarities end. Whereas Tolstoy created a gallery of richly drawn characters caught in the sweep of history, Peter Nadas creates a series of elusive consciousnesses floundering in the whirligig of time.

She Loves Me dates from the same year – 1963 – as "She Loves You", but that's about it all it shares with the Beatles' hit song. This Broadway musical, a firm favourite with buffs of the genre, is set in a Hollywood notion of 1930s Budapest and boasts a tight, witty book by Joe Masteroff and lyrics by Sheldon Harnick that are full of those comic quirks and hypermetrical skids that are present in normal speech but get ironed out in show songs. Jerry Bock's delectably tuneful score is a tribute to an era (which was just about to vanish) when it was possible to be achingly romantic and killingly funny in the same number.
Hungary may not be exactly a hotbed of thoroughbred racing; indeed, there is only one significant track in a country with a population of 10 million. The place has, though, made three significant contributions to the sport. The first was the 1876 Derby winner Kisber; the second, the extraordinary mare Kincsem, holder of the world unbeaten record of 54 races, a sequence that included the 1878 Goodwood Cup.

CHICOPEE – The City Council has approved spending about $460,000 to replace water pipes under 29 streets in the Willimansett section, some of which are more than 100 years old.
The pipes are to be replaced at the same time the joint sewage and storm drainage pipes under the same streets are separated into two pipes to meet federal Environmental Protection Agency mandates that the city stop dumping sewage into the rivers.
Faced with multiple water main breaks over the past few years, city officials have been pushing to replace aging water pipes at the same time roads are being torn up to separate sewer pipes.
Earlier this month the Board of Water Commissioners voted to transfer some of its surplus to a special account to pay for the improvements. The City Council approved the spending in a 13-0 vote this week.
"It will save us from having to dig up the streets again and hopefully we will save some water," Councilor James K. Tillotson said.
In a previous debate about replacing water meters, the City Council was told the city is being billed for about 100 million gallons of water a year more that registers on residential and commercial meters. Tillotson questioned if some of that water lost is due to old and leaking pipes along with poorly-functioning meters.
In looking at the list of pipes, Tillotson noted pipes under Charpentier, Catherine and Westview streets are 103 years old while those under Skeele and Fair streets are 98 years old. There are no records for the age of the pipes which are under 13 of the streets.
This is the second time this month that the City Council has been asked to approve funding to replace water pipes. In its Oct. 1 meeting it approved spending $200,000 from a special Water Department account for engineering fees to replace pipes during the separation project in the Aldenville area and off Montgomery and Sheridan streets.
"It is costly but I think it makes sense to do it all at the same time when we have the roads torn up," Tillotson said before the council voted 12-0 to approve the funding.

Nasdaq Hitting the Wall?
If the index prints above 2061 on Friday, it could bring short-term sellers to the market
By Paul Cherney
The Nasdaq has been testing intermediate term (a weekly view) "brick wall" resistance in the 1934-2106 area. Immediate resistance becomes thick with prints 2061-2106 and unless there is a series of headlines of undeniably bullish importance, I would guess that prints above 2061 (if they occur on Friday) will bring short-term sellers to the market which could prevent the initial strength from seeing significant follow-through during the morning.
A look at the chart of the Nasdaq from the first half of December shows a pretty well-defined layer of resistance in the 2041-2065 area, within this area is a concentration of resistance 2045-2054. If there is an opening gap higher on Friday morning, the odds are high that position traders (traders who hold positions for more than intraday) who have caught any piece of this lift of the past two days will be looking to book some profits. As long as there are long-term investors convinced that odds favor the upside, then retracements (intraday) should be shallow.
If that isn't the case then we are about to enter the earnings reporting season and ahead of those reports I think the downside is limited. This market wants to believe in the upside. The familiar high tech workhorses of the Nasdaq (Intel, Microsoft, Dell, Cisco, and Oracle) have attracted buyers.
Immediate intraday support for the Nasdaq is now 2027-2010 then 2003-1980.
The Nasdaq has well defined intermediate term chart support 1965-1853. The index has intraday chart support 1942-1913.
The S&P 500 has intermediate term "brick wall" resistance 1153-1206. The index has a focus of resistance 1165-1173. Immediate support is 1159-1150.

SPRINGFIELD — Both U.S. senators from Massachusetts have come out in support of an offer by Gov. Deval Patrick to temporarily host unaccompanied youths who crossed the border illegally at military bases in the Commonwealth.
On Friday, Patrick held a press conference announcing he had answered a federal call for assistance as he offered Westover Air Reserve Base in Chicopee and Camp Edwards on Cape Cod to potentially host up to 1,000 unaccompanied young people caught illegally entering the county. The problem has been in the spotlight recently as violence and the perception that unaccompanied illegal youths would be permitted to stay has prompted an influx of young people crossing the border illegally, many from Central American countries.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., said that answering the call is the right thing to do.
"These kids are at real risk and we need to do everything we can to make sure they are not harmed or in danger," Warren said in a statement. "I agree with Pope Francis that this is a humanitarian crisis, and I believe every state that can help, should help."
Sen. Ed Markey, also a Massachusetts Democrat, said the need to find temporary housing for the estimated 50,000 illegal youths in detention is immediate and constitutes a humanitarian crisis. He applauded Patrick's efforts to ensure the youths are temporarily care for in the commonwealth as they await immigration status hearings.
"These children are coming from unstable areas and have experienced loss and hunger, often times violence and even exploitation. We have to take humane, reasonable steps to help and protect them while we process them for the next step," Markey said in a statement.
Although the influx of young people illegally making the dangerous trek to cross the southern U.S. border is seen as a problem in itself, it is actually a symptom of a larger problem. Gang-related violence, much of it tied to the international drug trade, has pushed families in El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras to send children to the United States with the hopes that as unaccompanied young people, they will be allowed to stay.
Federal officials are looking at how to best curb the tide of young people illegally walking across the border while elected officials in Washington continue the conversation around the need for reform of the country's immigration policies.
"Ultimately, we need to pass comprehensive immigration reform; we shouldn't only address pieces of this crisis. The only way we can address what is going on at the border now is to look at the immigration process as a whole and enact a comprehensive solution," Markey said. "The Senate passed a comprehensive immigration reform bill just over one year ago. It is time for Republicans in the House to stop their opposition and bring the bill to the floor for debate and a vote."
Patrick's proposal to house the unaccompanied illegal youths is far from becoming approved. A potential site, such as one of the military bases, would have to be approved by the federal government for such use and a Congressional appropriations bill would have to pass in Washington to fund the life-sustaining care the youths would receive until immigration officials decided if they qualify for asylum, should be brought to live with family in the U.S. or if they will be cued up for deportation.

Kenner Mayor Mike Yenni will hold town hall meetings on six tax initiatives that would double Kenner's property tax rate and raise money for police and fire operations.
The election is April 2.
Yenni has been busy explaining his tax proposal to neighborhood and business groups since January.
He is proposing three new millages: two for the Police Department and one for the Fire Department.
Yenni is also asking voters to renew three existing millages that otherwise will expire at the end of 2011 -- and agree to increase two of them. One of those is for fire and another for garbage. A sewerage tax would be a straight renewal.
Yenni will hold a south Kenner town hall meeting on March 15 at 7 p.m. in the council chambers of Kenner City Hall, 1801 Williams Blvd. A north Kenner town hall meeting is on March 22 at 7 p.m. at the City Park Pavilion, at 3800 Loyola Drive. Also at the pavilion is a Hispanic community town hall meeting on March 29 at 7 p.m.

i agree about the extremism thing! It's like everyone is afraid to be middle-of-the-road about things... heaven forbid we are average! As soon as some advice comes out people just let it dominate their lifestyle instead of taking it for what it is - usually a statement without context. E.g. (made-up) berries are good... people eat a zillion berries a day, instead of just choosing berries when they feel like fruit.
I think it's the same with the carb thing. People found they felt good with lower carbs.. also probably in part due to less sugar (rather than the lack of carbs in general)... suddenly everyone rushes to a very low carb diet!
I think the old saying about moderation is true in every facet of life. You hear these things, evaluate the truth/relativity for yourself, then let that affect your decisions, rather than dominate them.
Also being a sedentary female with weight loss as the number 1 goal... you really cannot afford to go all out on the fats or it's near impossible to get your other daily nutrient needs. Sometimes I want bacon and eggs but when I do that it's really hard to get enough protein in for the rest of the day because that 1 meal alone is half my daily calorie intake! So definitely have to keep that in mind when going crazy on the fats.

Colorado WR Richardson To Enter 2014 NFL Draft
After being named first team All-Pac 12, Colorado wide receiver Paul Richardson will enter the 2014 NFL Draft, the school announced on Monday.
Richardson finished the 2013 season with 83 receptions for 1,343 yards and 10 touchdowns. He also holds 29 school records, including single-game and single-season marks for receptions and receiving yards.
For the team that finished the season 4-8, his contributions will be missed greatly.
"He leaves with 29 records, which is really good," coach Mike MacIntyre said, according to The Denver Post. "One thing I tried to entice him on is he could leave with about 60 if he stayed for another year, which would probably never be broken, but I'm excited for Paul. I really am... I'm also sad for us."
Richardson is projected to be a second- or third-round pick in the draft, according to NFLDraftScout.com. Our draft expert David Seigerman ranked Richardson at No. 45 in his latest big board.
"I had a great experience here at Colorado," Richardson said. "I've been through a lot of coaching staffs, but I've had these same teammates, a lot of them for the last four years, and it's been awesome."

It was one of a series that our church showed us: the Bible story was read while a sequence of tableaux ran on the screen—it was not a motion picture, really, but more like a slide show. The actors were all attractive people with earnest expressions, and their faces stayed on the screen for a long time while the text was read. Sometimes the camera would zoom in, so that we could get a really good, long look at a particularly earnest expression.
I think I would find it all a bit too much if I were to view it today. But this was a long time ago.
I remember Thomas's face.
You may recall that this
ending of the Gospel of Mark, the one that appears in the most ancient
manuscripts of the book, seemed too abrupt to later copyists. Before long, 11
more verses had found their way there, a busy digest of post-resurrection
experiences from a variety of sources: John's account of the scene at the tomb
with Mary Magdalene, John's story of Thomas the doubter, a version of the walk
to Emmaus, an account of Jesus' ascension, other material from Luke/Acts. These
are entered almost as bullet points.
But the tacked-on verses need
not concern us here--the Revised Common Lectionary walks away from them
politely. We are left with the bald confusion and fear at the end of the
ancient tale, from a time before it was canonized and liturgized.
Bread Summer 5: John 6:56-69
This is a difficult moment in Jesus' ministry. He loses some members of his band—maybe a lot of them: "many of his disciples turned back and no longer went about with him."
Bread Summer 4: John 6:51-58
Imagine that a being from another planet was church shopping at your place this Sunday. What would he make of this?

MONTGOMERY, Alabama — The Senate education budget committee reduced the size of a proposed teacher pay raise from 2 percent to 1 percent.
Gov. Robert Bentley had proposed a raise of 2.5 percent. The House approved a raise of 2 percent. The Senate Finance and Taxation Education Committee dropped that to 1 percent.
"Any pay raise that is given has to be sustained," committee chairman Sen. Trip Pittman, R-Montrose, said.
Sen. Hank Sanders, D-Selma, said it was "painful" because teachers have gone so long without a raise.
The budget also gives K-12 workers an additional 1 percent raise that is a conditional appropriation that will be given if the money is available.
Story will be updated

Duluth, MN (NNCNOW.com) --- Welcome to the most extreme trail near Spirit Mountain.
We started at the top where bikers flew down a steep conduit of rocks and were greeted by their biggest fans. The bikers were then challenged by a chain of jumps that would leave any mom biting her nails.
Organizers say the Bike Duluth Festival is the first of its kind in Northern Minnesota.
"We are hearing from experts that people in the know for biking that this venue at Spirit Mountain the trails they have here are just awesome," said Jeff Lisakka, of Kraus-Anderson Construction.
Lisakka says the event's sponsors, along with COGG's, are the ones to thank for accelerating the success of this action–packed event.
"We pulled it together and we think it is something that is really going to grow into something larger in the future," said Lisakka.
"Definitely kind of high adrenaline, high risk," said Adam Sundberg, the event's organizer.
Sundberg says Duluth is becoming a mecca for biking trails, which is good for bikers and good for business.
"There are a lot of new people in the sport," said Sundberg, "even a lot of people who have been in the sport for a long time realizes a lot of fantastic trails are opening up, so everyone is excited about it."
The Kraus Anderson Bike Duluth event will continue into Sunday.

Q. Why do we need charter schools?
A. We need to find new methods to educate kids. Everything else about our society has completely changed over the years, but most schools continue to do things in the same way. We need to make sure the way we educate our students stays on track with the way that we've evolved as a society. A charter school gives teachers the freedom to design the curriculum and try new things to improve student achievement.
Q. Do charter schools get as much state money as regular public schools? Why should they?
A. Every student from the same community who attends a public school should receive equal funding. But that's not happening in New Jersey. Charter school students receive, on average, only 70 percent of the state funding their peers receive in district schools. I understand the reasons for raising state funding levels in high-need areas in Newark and Camden to catch those kids up. But kids who are from the same community should be getting the same funding as their peers. It's just a matter of equity.
Q. Does Gov. Chris Christie's proposal for charter schools fix that funding problem?
A. Gov. Christie's proposal has not addressed funding for charter schools. We definitely think it should be addressed. Besides giving charter school students the same amount of state funding, I think the proposal should allow for charters to have free access to public buildings. The idea of charter schools having to pay rent in a district building means that public dollars will be paying rent into a building that public dollars have already paid to build. That's a double expenditure for the taxpayers.
Q. Do you consider the governor a supporter of charter schools?
A. I do. The governor has been pretty clear in his support for charter schools. I think he's seen some good charter schools have success and wants to expand them.
Q. In Princeton, a successful school district, some administrators say charters drain money away from regular public schools for no good reason. What's your response to that argument?
A. Wherever there's a group of parents or students looking for new, innovative ways to educate kids, you will see charter schools. It doesn't mean the district is doing something poorly.
It's just that other people want a different type of education for their kids. If there's enough of a local demand, then you should see a charter school in that community. The idea of the state funding being stripped from the district is a perspective that assumes it's the institution's money, as opposed to a student's money for education.
Q. A Stanford University study of 2,400 charters nationwide last year found only 20 percent did better than district schools. About 40 percent did worse. That doesn't sound impressive. Should more failing charters be closed down?
A. This is a matter of faulty oversight of charter schools. I definitely believe that we need to enforce accountability for all failing schools. If you're not meeting the needs of kids, you should be shut down. In New Jersey's former Abbott districts, charters, for the most part, outperform the district schools.
Charter schools are the most accountable form of public education that we have. They're accountable to the state in every single way a district school is, filing all the same reports. And on top of that, charters are reviewed every five years by the Department of Education.
If charters aren't meeting the terms of their agreements, then they're supposed to be shut down. Accountability isn't a matter of completing all the checklists needed on a report. It should be based on student performance.

Anyone who was excited about coming back to campus and having a pleasant meal in an un-cramped, nicely spaced Ferris Booth will get their wish (and is also weirdly clairvoyant).
New pictures on the Columbia Dining Facebook page show off the dining hall's new furniture. Check after the jump for another photo of the new (but mostly old) digs. No word on whether or not the stairs will stop being a hellish nightmare. Dining is equally mum on whether the rumor about Ferris being renamed Domain that I just made up is true.

BOSTON – Ranked No. 2 in youth murders in the state the past five years, Springfield could benefit from a new law that provides $10 million in violence-prevention grants for cities.
Gov. Deval L. Patrick signed a bill on Tuesday that includes $10 million for a new program that would target grants to communities with the highest number of youth homicides and serious assaults. The same bill, given final approval by the state Legislature on Monday, also includes $15 million to pay for state costs of tornado response, a provision that captured most of the attention.
According to statistics compiled by the Massachusetts State Police and provided by the Massachusetts Senate, Springfield had 24 murders of people less than 23 years old from 2006 to 2010, far behind Boston, ranked No. 1 with 142 such murders.
Other communities on the "Top twenty cities with youth homicides" included Brockton, with 16; Worcester, 13; Lawrence, 11; and Lowell, 10. Holyoke was tied at No. 10 on the list with Quincy and Taunton with 6 each.
Jennifer Kritz, a spokeswoman for the state Executive Office of Health and Human Services, said the agency is developing guidelines for providing grants.
The language in the new law is unclear about whether the grants would go to private, nonprofit agencies, municipalities or both.
In a recent speech on the program, Patrick said youth violence is not purely an issue for government.
Patrick said his administration will work with local officials and civic leaders to tailor a strategy for each community to quell urban violence.
"The most at-risk young people in the most violent communities in the commonwealth must have the full continuum of services, from trauma counseling to job training," Patrick said in the speech outlining his bid for the $10 million. "So, for each targeted community ... we will assess what services currently exist, which are working and which are not, and what gaps need to be filled."
Sen. Gale D. Candaras, D-Wilbraham, advocated for the $10 million during a speech last week on the Senate floor, saying that Springfield is plagued with gang violence. She said there is a serious lack of jobs and opportunities for young people in the city, causing hopelessness and despair long before the tornadoes struck on June 1.
Candaras said a shooting or a stabbing occurs just about every weekend in the city. She said officials need to control gang violence and repeated shootings and stabbings.
"We're in dire need immediately," Candaras said.
The chairman of the Senate Committee on Ways and Means, Sen. Stephen M. Brewer, D-Barre, also pushed for approval of the $10 million.
"These cities need this help now," said Brewer, who read from the top 20 list during his speech. "We can help .. with this targeted assistance."
The state House of Representatives and the Senate both overwhelmingly voted in support of the bill that included the $10 million.

PHILADELPHIA -- An hour before Wednesday's preseason game between the Cavaliers and the Philadelphia 76ers, Philadelphia native Dion Waiters stood near halfcourt. His blue T-shirt was soaked with sweat. He was not smiling.
He would fake right on assistant coach Jamahl Mosley, then drive left and pull up for a jump shot at the top of the key. Most went in. After 10 minutes, he went to the right corner and put up jump shot after jump shot. Then he moved to the left corner. More jumpers. Finally, with about 40 minutes left before tipoff, he headed to the locker room.
It was his first game as a professional in his hometown -- a dream come true, he'd said -- and he wanted to be ready. As it turned out, he scored five points on 2-for-6 shooting in the Cavaliers' 113-99 loss to the 76ers.
There is something unique about basketball players who grow up here. Sixers coach Doug Collins realized it during his playing career.
"You think of all the great players who have played here -- Wilt [Chamberlain] and Guy Rodgers -- and all these great, great players," he said before Wednesday's game. "The Big Five. The rivalries. The Sonny Hill Baker League. All the pros would play in the summer league -- Earl Monroe.
"You've got to be tough. You've got to have an element of toughness to your game. You can't back down. You've got a little swagger. All those things. I think that represents what Philadelphia basketball is all about. It has a long, rich heritage, going back a long, long time. That's what the neat thing about it is. It has a great fan base.
"These young guys, when they grow up in Philly, they've got a lot of basketball in front of them."
It also was a homecoming for Cavs center Micheal Eric, who played at Temple.
"It felt a little weird yesterday driving into Philly, where I lived for six years," he admitted. "But it was a great feeling. Philly is like a home away from home."
Eric had a lot of ticket requests, though he didn't want to say how many he actually bought. He did say Waiters bought more.
"This is Dion's town," he said. "I'm just part of it."
Sixers roster: Former Lakers center Andrew Bynum, rumored to be heading to the Cavs for a good deal of the summer, has yet to take part in practice with the Sixers because of right knee troubles. In addition, Collins decided to rest Jason Richardson on Wednesday, starting Dorell Wright instead.
"He's a very good all-around player," Collins said of Wright. "I love what he did the other night [seven points and seven rebounds in a 107-75 victory over Boston on Monday]."

Roger, Haiko,
I sailed more confortably yesterday both powered up and not. For the first 20 min I was competely overpowered on my 6.5 and it was tough to relax. Then the wind dropped just enough that I was able to plane without oversheeting so much. After 30 min the wind dropped way off so I was underpowered for the next hour. Then for the last hour it picked back up and I was planing off and on. So, it was a good day to practice your suggestions.
I sailed with less arm effort when planing by moving my harness lines foward 1 1/2 inches and kept them about 5 inches apart. The sail was much quieter than when I had the lines 2 inches apart. I moved the lines forward because I think I was oversheeted in the past with just harness pressure. I sailed more upright most of the time and didn't have to pull myself back up nearly as often.
When the wind dropped to 8 knots, I did better too. I didn't lean back so much and focused on not oversheeting the sail.
I had a much better day than last week on the same board and sail in about the same wind so thank you
for your help. I even sailed for 3 hrs without a snack or water break and that is unheard of for me.
Roger, thank you for saying everyone pulls too much with their arms in windy conditions. I really thought it was only me and was pretty depressed thinking that there was no hope of getting better.

Step-by-Step: Reverse Liver Damage
Here is a summary of the steps of the program:
- (Optional) Do a liver detox
- Remove alcohol, caffeine, tobacco, and any drugs possible
- Eat more fruit and raw vegetables, reduce processed sugar and fat
- Exercise often
- Liver Active
You don't need to follow these steps by order. In fact, if you are not going to do them all I would recommend you start with Liver Active, since supplements are the only method proven to actually reverse liver damage, as opposed to prevent it. Then I would remove offenders (step 2), and then exercise, followed by changing what you eat and only last would I do a detox.
Now your homework is to start taking action in reversing liver damage: start by going to the Liver Active page and decide if that is the supplement for you. When you order it, while you wait for it to arrive start thinking about the habits you have that may be damaging your liver and commit to remove one over the course of the next week.

How do I activate a digital cable box? I have call the activation number and followed their instructions and all I get is the guide listing for each channel and "one moment please, this channel should be available shortly." There is a statement on the "equipment activation" sheet that says to follow the instructions in the self install kit to access the ON Demand Digital Cable Free Demo- once the demo plays, you will have confirmation that your service is fully functional. Well, there are no instructions for that. So, if I can find out how to run that demo- will it then activate the box? Why doesn't the activation line tell you to do that? Why does customer service not know what that even means? Hopefully I'll get an answer soon- or I'll call Direct TV tommorrow and get what I expect- the ability to watch television.
I apologize for the experience. We can activate your converter remotely from our office. If there is a connection issue, we may have to send out a technician to correct the problem. Will you please send us an email including the phone number on the account so that we can assist further?

Questions are few and far between in The Wine Classroom, so to get a query and then find the answer so quickly warrants an immediate posting.
Hello Paul,
Wine is a favorite hobby of my wife and I, and we are regular readers of your blog. However, she is now expecting (!), and we're trying to figure out what to drink for the next few months. Do you know anything about alcohol-removed wines? Ariel Vineyards (connected to J. Lohr) and Fre (Sutter Home) both offer alcohol-removed vintages. Have you ever tried them? Know how to get them around here? Or, better yet--do you know of any local wineries experimenting with alcohol removal?
And if you don't know the answer, you turn to Steve Pollack, the buyer for the PLCB's Chairman's Selections.
"I have tried both and the Fre sparkler is the best but the Ariel chard is good as well. The only place I have seen them in is Wegmans."
As far as the other questions, I've never tried them and I'm not aware of any regional wineries working on that type of product. Readers, if you know otherwise, please correct me.

An Allentown man running from police Monday tried to get rid of a pistol in some shrubbery, city police said.
Officers responding to a call of a fight about 3:15 p.m. saw Joshua Livingston, 20, among a group of juveniles. Police said officers had seen Livingston earlier and he had avoided them. When officers approached Livingston, he grabbed an item from his waistband and started running on West Russell Street to 13th Street, court records say.
Livingston was caught in a backyard in the 1300 block of West Chew Street and a witness told police they saw Livingston discard a gun in a bush, records say.
A black Kimber .45-caliber semi-automatic pistol with five bullets in the magazine and one in the chamber was recovered, police said.
Livingston is prohibited from having a firearm because he was adjudicated delinquent as a juvenile for aggravated assault, records say.
Livingston, of the first block of South Franklin Street, is charged with possession of a firearm prohibited and firearms carried without a license. He was arraigned before District Judge Rod Beck and sent to Lehigh County Prison in lieu of $100,000 bail.

It's hard not to talk about Britney Spears, and normally I wouldn't fight it.
I would go to town describing her dazed dancing, or her bad hair weave or her inability to learn the words to her own song. I would happily spin the tale of how I feared my eyes would explode as I watched the horror of her "comeback" at the MTV Video Music Awards. It would have been nice to share that Britney Spears makes a good anti-drug, or at the very least to address some of the week's plaguing questions -- Was Brit high on something? Will she apologize at the Emmys? Was that bra and panty getup her way of showing off that she finally remembered to wear underwear?
But then my dad, a man who still listens to his cassette player (yes, cassette), mentioned Britney. And if HE knows about Brit, everyone knows about Brit.
So I figured I would give it a rest and, instead, report on the juice people might have missed in this Britney-saturated week.
Paris Hilton opted to trash it up at the VMAs instead of going to support her sister's fashion show in New York -- because Paris has a beautiful soul.
Jake Gyllenhaal and Reese Witherspoon broke up, again. I'd like to make fun of that, but I can't because they're just too pretty.
Jason Wahler (brooding bad boy of "Laguna Beach" and Lauren Conrad's ex) got engaged. Wahler said his fiance, a college sophomore, helped him through his tough times, including a few arrests and a rumored sex tape scandal. He's 20; she's 19. They have been dating for seven months. They're basically the poster couple for marital bliss.
O.J. Simpson has been named a suspect in a hotel break-in, in which a group of men, two with guns, stole sports memorabilia. No, that wasn't another joke in poor taste -- that's actually news.
Lindsay Lohan has managed to stay out of the headlines for the first time since she hit puberty. By my count it's been three days. Baby steps, Linds, baby steps.
Anna Wintour, editor-in-chief of "Vogue," brought Roger Federer to Oscar de la Renta's show during fashion week. She is a scary cougar and he is a young, famous athlete. I hope they start dating.
And so concludes the non-Britney portion of the blog. I feel proud that I've responsibly done my readers a service by delivering a wide breadth of celebrity news. Now they are fully armed to engage in conversations about something, or someone, other than Britney.
I'm just not sure why anyone would want to.
