Beeville's post office was constructed in 1917-18 and designed by Architect James A. Wetmore. The shooting of Drayman J. P. Hermes by post office contractor R. B. Brown during construction, the subsequent trial of Brown, guilty of homicide verdict and appeal (which was won in the Supreme Court), established by law the right to self defense in the U.S.
The first post office in Pettus was built in 1886, David W. Hodges serving as the first postmaster. The new post office building was dedicated in 1970.

Taking to the streetsJune 25,2013
The yearning for justice can be contagious.
Europe saw the barricades go up in capitals across the continent in the revolutions of 1848. The discontents of 1968 burst forth in turbulent fashion across the United States and Europe.
Now Brazil has joined a list of nations subject to surprising popular uprisings. The list goes back to the cedar revolution in Lebanon, the abortive green revolution in Iran, and the Arab spring and its bitter fruit, the Syrian civil war.
Lately, protesters in Turkey have challenged the heavy hand of Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the prime minister. Brazil has followed, with a million protesters taking to the street this week.
Turkey and Brazil are two of the worlds rising powers. They have experienced rapid economic growth, lifting millions of people out of poverty and into an expanding middle class. The trouble they are experiencing used to be called the revolution of rising expectations revolutions reflecting the impatience of newly empowered citizens making new demands on old elites.
Brazilians are disgusted with the billions of dollars being spent on deluxe soccer facilities in anticipation of the World Cup soccer tournament. These expenditures are occurring even as everyday public services lag behind. Proposed hikes in bus fees apparently touched off the anger that millions of ordinary Brazilians feel about the corruption and incompetence of their leaders.
Could it have been the self-immolation of a street vendor in Tunisia that sparked this chain of events? That was the catalyst that began the uprising that led to the ouster of the autocratic and corrupt president of Tunisia, who chose not to put up much of a fight. It was a few months later that throngs of Egyptians packed into Tahrir Square in Cairo, which yielded the departure of Egypts corrupt autocrat, Hosni Mubarak.
Revolution does not follow a tidy script. Repression in Bahrain quashed an uprising there (with minimal protest from the United States, which maintains an important naval base there). It has not been tidy in Libya, where the United States and its allies thwarted repressive measures by Moammar Gadhafi, leading to his overthrow and death. Lack of order in Libya has spawned the dispersion of jihadi ideology and Libyan weaponry.
The most horrific chapter in this new story of public outrage has been the civil war in Syria, where President Bashar Assad is fomenting sectarian warfare, drawing in Shiite allies from Lebanon, Iraq and Iran to battle Sunni rebels supported by Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the West.
Turkey and Brazil, modern nations with histories of repression and corruption, are not Syria or Libya. They are democracies where the public is getting a whiff of its own power. The trouble encountered by the leadership of these countries is the price inevitably exacted from those who pursue the interest of a narrow minority at the expense of the majority. For the sake of people in both countries and for the stability of their regions, one hopes the leadership is responsive to the people.
Past revolutionary eras have led to years of reaction. The revolution of 1848 in France produced the reign of a new emperor. Turmoil in the United States in 1968 led to Richard Nixon. Reactionary, neo-fascist elements are seething around the edges of politics in Greece, Italy and other European nations, where people are reaching the conclusion that the powers that be are in collusion against them.
Democracy and participation are the best avenues toward justice, but when people reach the conclusion that the avenue is blocked, they take to the streets. That is what the Tea Party and Occupy Wall Street have been about. The Tea Party has been more successful politically because conservatives have been willing to engage in politics. It is a fluid, volatile, unpredictable time. When Brazilians are protesting soccer, you know things are askew.MORE IN EditorialsProtesters converged on a bank in Montpelier early this week to show their solidarity with the...

text: If I want to block feed every 2 hours, then whenever my DS wants to nurse within a 2 hour period I would feed him from one side, right? For example, between 12 PM-2 PM I would offer only right breast.. But what happens if the next time he wants to feed is at 5 PM? Do I offer left breast since I havent fed on it or do I offer right breast because I am doing a 2 hour block and he wants to feed outside of the 2 PM - 4 PM window?

It was just too much good pitching and hard hitting by the Longhorns. The GW boys who had already beaten Mathis in their first round game silenced the Beeville bats in the top of the first inning and then struck for six big runs in the home half.
Longhorn hurler Ryan Thomasee blanked the Beeville squad again in the top of the second. The GW bats rallied for another six runs in the bottom of the second to take a 12-0 lead.
The Beeville bats caught up to the GW fireballer a little in the third as Isaiah Thomas led off with a single to right field. A walk to Jaydon Burkett followed to put two runners on for Lazzaro Garcia. Garcia came through with a double that knocked in one runner, but Burkett was out at the plate on the play, trying to score on the Garcia hit. Garcia went to third on the throw home to help keep the Beeville threat alive.
A new GW pitcher came on and got into a little trouble by walking Devin Smith and Hunter Pelitire in succession. A wild throw to third to try and pick off Garcia sailed wide, allowing Garcia to score. Smith moved all the way around and scored on another bad GW throw to put the final run of the inning on the scoreboard for Beeville.
It was a 12-3 game heading into the bottom of the third. The Longhorns worked for the one run needed to earn the 10-run rule win. A leadoff walk, a fielder's choice and a couple of passed balls brought the Longhorn run across the plate.
The Beeville boys had one last chance to prolong the game but needed to score at least one run in the top of the fourth. It was not to be as the three Beeville hitters went down on order and the young Longhorns celebrated the win to advance in the winners' bracket of the tournament.
The Beeville boys will play on Tuesday evening in the double elimination tournament.

As the innovation leader of advanced sound transmission and capture, Delphinus Medical Technologies, Inc. of Novi, MI has designed and developed SoftVue™, a new platform for ultrasound imaging of the entire breast. Delphinus is Latin for dolphin, known to use sound signals in water. Sound and water are the basis of our SoftVue™ technology, where acoustic signals resonating within breast tissue yield a unique signature that our revolutionary science measures. Featuring proprietary TriAD™ (triple acoustic detection) technology, the system captures reflection echoes from all directions around the breast and gathers transmitted signals coming through the breast. SoftVue™ has received FDA clearance for diagnostic imaging purposes and is not intended for use as a replacement for screening mammography.Click here for a video presentation
Advancing beyond traditional ultrasound that looks at only a limited area of breast tissue, SoftVue™ collects information from the chest wall to the nipple, providing a complete map of the entire breast, displayed in cross-sectional planes. And unlike traditional ultrasound where the outcome of the exam is dependent on technologist skill and experience, the exam is consistent and uniform, removing operator variability.
The procedure can be available for all women regardless of age, without the concern of radiation or pain. With the breast suspended in warm water and a short exam time of one to two minutes per breast, the exam is safe, fast and relaxing.

Find Your Passion: The Total Package
By Allison Bridges and Mary Wymer
As a little girl growing up in Florence, S.C., Martha Addison knew she wanted to be an aerospace engineer.
When the time came to choose a college, Addison wanted a school that offered her everything she deserved. "I am not just about engineering, and I wanted a school that had more to it than just engineering," says Addison. "I wanted the whole package."
The University of Alabama offered Addison, now a junior aerospace engineering and mechanics major, just what she wanted. Since making the move from the East Coast to Tuscaloosa, she has grown to develop the skills and abilities that UA strives to instill in its students.
Addison is involved in several campus organizations, including the Wesley Foundation and the Honors Program's intramural flag football team. However, her involvement with the College of Engineering's organizations has proved to be the most beneficial, both personally and professionally, she says.
As an ambassador for UA's College of Engineering, Addison now recruits students just like her who are about to make the transition from high school to college. She knows how important an inside perspective can be when making the final decision on where to receive a top-notch education, but she is most eager to share with potential students the benefits of UA's "whole package."
"When I was being recruited at UA, what I was most interested in was what the University could offer me," says Addison. "I wanted to know what life was like outside of the classroom. Now I am in the position to recruit new students, and I am thankful for the opportunity to promote a school with such a rich tradition of excellence that is evident in its students, faculty, staff, academic programs and research initiatives. Every aspect of my experience has been exceptional."
Addison also serves as president of UA's chapter of the Society of Women Engineers, a non-profit educational and service organization that establishes engineering as a highly desirable career aspiration for women. As a recipient of the SWE Future Leader Award, Addison attends the organization's leadership training seminars.
"I did not have a strong female engineer to look to when I was growing up," says Addison, "which is why SWE's mission to motivate future female engineers is crucial to the engineering field. Women who are motivated by SWE can become successful engineers, thus increasing the expertise and innovations that are crucial to the field."
The University of Alabama's Crimson GRITS, or Girls Racing in the South, is also a contributor to Addison's UA experience. She's led the team that designs and builds an off-road vehicle for the Society of Automotive Engineers'annual mini-baja competition. The vehicle must meet several demanding requirements, providing the student members with a challenging project that involves the planning and manufacturing tasks encountered when introducing a new product to the consumer industrial market.
Addison's involvement with GRITS has allowed her to learn the components of designing, building and testing. "This is an excellent opportunity to learn about real-world problems and solutions, and to simply have fun," says Addison. "It is incredibly rewarding to learn about how the design process works by using a vehicle you have actually built."
Considering Addison's extensive campus involvement and leadership activities, one might think she would not have much time for anything else. Think again.
In addition to being the recipient of several scholarships and awards, including the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Junior and Senior Scholarships and the Alabama Space Grant Scholarship, Addison has completed several co-op and internship programs that challenged and strengthened her engineering skills.
As a design intern with SPIRIT Aerosystems in Wichita, Kan., Addison was responsible for designing parts of an aircraft's wing. She later worked with integrating the whole wing, and she single handedly developed a database detailing the placement of fasteners on an airplane's wing. Addison's work utilized the company's time and money, and it led to an increase in savings for the consumer.
"My work was original because it integrated the use of fasteners into the design phase of an airplane's wing," says Addison. "This was something that had never been done before. Without a firm foundation in aerospace engineering, it may have not been possible. UA provided me with the skills I needed to set a new timeline for when fastener placement is considered."
As a co-op engineer with Southern Research Institute in Birmingham, Addison spent three semesters gaining engineering expertise outside the classroom. Not only did she manage input and output of mechanic specimens, but Addison created specimen design plans based on companies' test needs. Needless to say, the experience Addison gained was invaluable, and it has expanded her UA experience. "My co-op experience opened my eyes to a new engineering field," says Addison.
Addison has also conducted research alongside UA faculty. With Dr. Stanley E. Jones, James R. Cudworth Professor of Aerospace Engineering and Mechanics, she worked to solve a new class of mathematical-based equations dealing with the motion of springs. Her work with Dr. Philip Bradford, assistant professor of computer science, has also been instrumental in developing coding to simulate the stability of aircraft. "The research I have been involved in has provided me with intellectual and personal growth, and I am constantly being challenged by new material," says Addison.
Addison was drawn to The University of Alabama because she wanted more than just an exceptional education – she wanted an exceptional experience. This UA experience has allowed her to further develop and commit herself to her dedication to campus leadership, professional growth and willingness to learn.

Utah State Office
|Release Date: 03/25/13
BLM Approves Helium Project in Eastern Utah
Moab, UT – The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Utah has signed the Decision Record (DR) and Finding of No Significant Impact and approved the Application for Permit to Drill (APD) for the Harley Dome helium project in the Moab Field Office just north of I-70 and a few miles west of the Utah-Colorado state line.
Flatirons Resources, LLC, applied to the BLM-Utah Moab Field Office for a permit to drill a 1,100-foot exploratory well in the Harley Dome gas field in eastern Utah and for an associated right-of-way to transport the produced gas via a surface pipeline to a new gas processing plant that would be brought in. If sufficient quality and quantity of helium is confirmed, the proponent will construct a four-inch, 7,183-foot pipeline to a small plant where the helium will be removed from the gas stream and compressed for truck transport. The well will be located five miles west of the Utah-Colorado border on federal lands in northern Grand County; the helium extraction plant will be located 1.4 miles from the well on private property.
The project environmental assessment considered a wide range of potential impacts to natural and cultural resources, and the DR includes best management practices and reclamation plans to mitigate identified impacts.
Natural gas deposits commonly contain small amounts of helium. The Harley Dome helium project is notable because the helium reservoir in the Harley Dome gas field is believed to have an unusually high concentration of helium and low concentration of flammable gases like methane.
Helium is a colorless, odorless gas with unique properties such as the lowest boiling and melting points of all the natural elements. In addition to filling colorful balloons, helium's distinctive characteristics also make it critical to hospitals that use it to cool MRI scanners; the nuclear industry, which uses it to cool reactors; and, even NASA who uses it to purge explosive fuel from its rockets.

Field-Initiated Projects
NIDILRR Now Part of HHS
Program Office: National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research (NIDILRR)
CFDA Number: 84.133G
Program Type: Discretionary/Competitive Grants
Also Known As: FI, formerly known as Field-Initiated Research or FIR
The Field-Initiated Projects (FIPs) are a program of investigator-initiated research that was created by NIDILRR in 1984 under its R&D authority. The FIP program supplements NIDILRR's directed research portfolio by addressing diverse research issues in promising and innovative ways. Field initiated research projects cover all of NIDILRR's domains, including employment, independent living, medical rehabilitation and development of new technologies, and address all disability populations with a wide range of research approaches.
Projects must further one or both of the following purposes:
- To develop methods, procedures and
rehabilitation technology, that maximize the full inclusion and integration
into society, employment, independent living, family support, and economic and
social self-sufficiency of individuals with disabilities, especially
individuals with the most severe disabilities; and
- To improve the effectiveness of services authorized under the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended. The maximum award is $200,000 per year for a maximum of 36 months. The FIP program is highly competitive.
RAF Models, Inc., Winston-Salem, NC
(Rebecca Fuller, principal investigator)
An intermediate outcome was the development of a new tactile exhibit system that makes aquarium exhibits accessible to those who are blind or have low vision. The goal was to design a user-initiated touching or exploring system that eliminates the need for buttons, switches or complex computer programs that would greatly enhance the aquarium experience for individuals with low vision and blindness. RAF Models gathered data that will support the development of national guidelines for the design of tactile exhibits that engage all people and give the blind and low vision audience access to the exhibit information. The exhibits, touch-activated, tactile models of aquatic animals with an audio component, have become part of a permanent exhibit at North Carolina Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores in Atlantic Beach, North Carolina.
(See www.rafmodels.com)
NPR Labs, Washington, DC
(Mike Starling, principal investigator)
An intermediate outcome was the development for the market place of the world's first accessible talking radio, the DICE ITR-100A, designed in conformance with NPR recommendations on products for blind and low vision users. Researchers at NPR Labs prototyped, field-tested and assessed the most appropriate technologies, service models, and operational techniques in the accessible design of mass-market digital radio services to better serve consumers with sensory disabilities. This work produced best practice demonstrations and service options for mass-market adoption within digital radio services and receivers, options that model how digital radio can provide: Mainstreamed digital radio reading services, live video description synchronized to broadcast, and accessible controls, displays and menu options on digital radio receivers. The research and technology was transferred to the market place.
(See www.diceelectronics.com/visionfree)
University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, TX
(Kenneth J. Ottenbacher, PhD, principal investigator)
An early outcome was the development and publication in peer-reviewed journals of benchmarking information for the field of rehabilitation for outcomes related to TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY and for STROKE during the period 2000 to 2007. The information (e.g., length of stay, discharge setting, function status gains, etc.) will be used by rehabilitation facilities across the country to benchmark or compare the outcomes for their individual facilities to the nationally aggregated outcomes reported in these articles.
These comparisons are useful for accreditation, quality improvement and development of clinical practice/outcome guidelines:
- Granger, C.V.; Markello, S.J.; Graham, J.E.; Deutsch, A.; Reistetter, T.A.; Ottenbacher, K.J. (2010). The Uniform Data System for Medical Rehabilitation: Report of Patients with Traumatic Brain Injury Discharged from Rehabilitation Programs in 2000-2007. American Journal of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, 89, 265-278.

Check Out 'Contraband' On Blu-ray, DVD & On Demand April 24
In "Contraband," a reformed smuggler faces drug lords, criminals, corrupt officials, and trigger-happy hit men after getting back into the business to help his brother-in-law settle a deadly debt.
When it came to transporting illicit goods under treacherous circumstances, Chris Farraday (Mark Wahlberg) used to be the best in the business. But all of that changed when he chose to give up his life of crime to start a family with Kate (Kate Beckinsale). Chris learns that leaving his past behind is easier said than done, however, after Kate's brother Andy (Caleb Landry Jones) goes to work for drug lord Tim Briggs (Giovanni Ribisi) and drops the ball on a major deal.
Now, in order to set things right, Chris must smuggle millions of dollars in counterfeit bills from Panama into the United States. And if anything goes wrong, Tim will target his entire family for death.
With his best friend Sebastian (Ben Foster) by his side and a crackerjack crew along for the ride, Chris heads to Panama for one last job. Later, with time running out and a treacherous maze of desperate criminals to navigate, the job gets complicated, and Chris must race to reach his family before Tim gets to them first.
Lukas Haas, Diego Luna, and J.K. Simmons co-star.
"Contraband" comes to Blu-ray combo pack with ultra violet, as well as DVD, digital download and on demand April 24.

For the past several years I have worked with those affected by pornography.
Allow me, then, from my experience, to offer three strategies that you as a parent can implement in parenting the porn generation.
1. Affirm the goodness of their sexuality.
Sometimes Catholic parents, especially when they themselves were brought up with a standard of chastity that focused on a list of sins...

The St. Paul Diaper Bank issued the following news release:
The St. Paul Diaper Bank Partnership has been providing Faith in Action, Senior Services of Crystal Lake and Senior Services of McHenry with adult incontinence products over the past few years. However, due to the increased demand in 2012 and the lack of donations, the program to provide these three agencies with adult products is now at risk of ending.
This would affect many local seniors. You can help keep this program going by donating medium, large, and X-large (tab and/or pull-up) sized products by dropping off donations at any one of the following locations:
• Faith in Action, 7105 Virginia Rd, Suite 25, Crystal Lake, Monday - Friday from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm.
• Senior Services of Crystal Lake, 110 W Woodstock St, Crystal Lake, Monday - Friday from 8:00 am - 4:00 pm.
• Senior Services of McHenry, 3519 Richmond Rd, McHenry, Monday - Friday from 8:00 am - 4:00 pm or
• St Paul Episcopal Church, 3706 W St Paul Ave, McHenry. St. Paul's has a 24/7 drop off box.
You can also make a monetary donation in any amount to assist the diaper bank in purchasing adult products. Please send checks to St. Paul Episcopal, made out to: "St Paul Diaper Bank."
Your help is greatly appreciated!

Cliffy smiles! D-Wright sticks it out!
I am so very, very behind in my postseason Shea photo albums, but here's a lovely little placeholder as we wait and watch to see if the game'll be rained out.
I think this was as players entered Shea for the NLCS game 2. Who gives great smile? Right after this screenshot, he goodnaturedly mouthed "I'll be alright."
Of course you will be, Cliffy!
And now, Cliff's self-proclaimed "little guy" David Wright. Do you love as much as I do that his tongue peeks out even while walking into Shea?
How much do we love our team?

Fed Minutes Hit Wall Street Lobbyist Inboxes Early (Update 3)
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- The Federal Reserve released to reporters the list of individuals who a central bank spokesperson said "inadvertently" received the March FOMC minutes on Tuesday shortly after 2 p.m. -- the Fed had scheduled to release the minutes on Wednesday at 2 p.m.
"The list used was a list of professional contacts that one individual had," a Fed spokesperson said in an email response to a question as to why this specific list of individuals received the minutes early.
The spokesperson said that the inadvertently released minutes had an embargo attached, but also noted that these individuals are not included among those who typically receive Fed releases under embargo.
The list consisted of 154 total individuals who come from various entities, including banks, bank lobbying firms, Congressional staffers, government agencies, a rating agency, other public agencies and trade groups.
Twenty-one of these individuals work at Wall Street firms, including Goldman Sachs
The distribution also included Bryan Corbett, a Principal in private equity firm Carlyle Group's
The e-mail was deleted and not shared with anyone, said a Carlyle Group source.
King Street could not immediately be reached for comment.
Most of the Wall Street staffers included on the distribution have previous experience working as Congressional staffers or at federal agencies like the Federal Reserve and the Treasury Department, according to LinkedIn profiles, press releases and various media reports.
"The list is used to send material AFTER it is publicly released. The early distribution of the minutes on Tuesday was inadvertent," the Fed spokesperson said.

"Keep comin' in. Everybody gets one," said Mike Cerneckiy, Meadowview Intermediate/Middle School principal.
Every sixth through eighth grade student at Meadowview Middle School in Sparta is getting a free hard-cover copy of the book "Blue Fish."
"What we're doing is an activity we're calling One School, One Book," said Cerneckiy.
The school-wide event was kicked-off at an assembly.
"Over the course of the month we hope that you read along with us," said Cerneckiy.
The idea is to encourage all students to start reading for enjoyment. Sixth grader Taylor Winterton thinks the event could be a real page-turner for everyone.
"I like it because then you can talk about it to everybody," said Winterton. "Like if you're reading a book on your own you can't talk about it to somebody else unless they already read it."
The school's reading specialist Lucy Bennett is also hoping the event will inspire some students.
"I'm hoping it will interest some of the reluctant readers to want to read more; get interested in reading," said Bennett.
And because the main character in the book is also a reluctant reader, the teaching staff is hoping students will be able to relate to the character and possibly even the many different topics covered in the book... like bullying.
"We, unfortunately, have some people right here in this gym that don't always behave nicely and don't always really go out of their way to be nice, but go out of their way to be mean," said Cerneckiy. "And hopefully in this book we learn some strategies both ways; to be a nicer person and to deal with it and support each other when things like that happen."
"If you know bullies and if they're reading this book then maybe they'll learn not to bully," said sixth grader Brandon Ruvalcaba.
"I think some kids really have a lot of these problems and they don't really feel comfortable talking about it with someone else," said sixth grader Wyatt Baker. "So, I guess the book could kind of comfort them."
Comfort, relatability, and an increased interest in reading are all goals for this one-school, one-book event.
"I'm obviously hoping that the kids become life-long readers," said Cerneckiy. "That we take some of the reluctant readers that maybe have never read a book. I mean it's a hard cover book. For some people, this could be the first hard cover book that's ever theirs."

2008 Season in Review
It was a great year. The Padres didn't do the best (63-99 record), but there were a lot of great games and highlights. Although the results of the season were not good, I still had a lot of fun listening to Padres baseball. Here are some of the highlights of the year.
- Third baseman Chase Headley tried the outfield at Petco for the first time. When he came up to the majors, left field was his main position.
- We signed center fielder Jody Gerut to a one-year contract. Jody was a huge part of this team, and he got the majority of the time in center.
- The Padres hosted their third annual FriarFest at Petco Park. I got two autographs (Chase Headley and Randy Ready), toured the clubhouse and dugout, and walked on the field. It was so much fun!
- Pitchers and catchers reported to Spring Training. Jake Peavy played with a changeup, which he used a lot throughout the season.
- The Padres journeyed to Beijing to play a few exhibition games with the Dodgers. The first game was tied at 3, but in the second game my Padres won 6-3. Great series!
- Pitching ace Jake Peavy hit a home run in one of the last spring training games. It was so funny!
- On Opening Day, Jake Peavy shut down the Astros for 7 innings. He also drove in two of the Padres' four runs. Not bad for a night's work. The Padres took 3 out of their first four games, with Trevor Hoffman saving two of them.
- The Padres and the Rockies battled through 22 innings of baseball, with the Rockies prevailing, 2-1. It was a crazy game, full of strange antics. Rally caps, rally tobacco, Jeff the Ram's Head, Larry the Parrot, and applesauce. The catchers on both teams, Josh Bard and Yorvit Torrealba, caught all 22 innings. I believe that this game was the turning point in the season. We were never the same after it. Everything just went down after that.
- Second baseman Tadahito Iguchi hit a solo walk-off homer in the 13th in a game against the Diamondbacks.
- Center fielder Jim Edmonds was released after two horrible, injury-filled months as a Padre. This guy was not good. His release opened the door for Jody Gerut, who did not disappoint.
- Greg Maddux finally won his 350th game. Rookie Luke Carlin made his major league debut catching Maddux's 350th win and Trevor Hoffman's 530th save in the same game. Talk about overwhelming for the rookie. It was a great game for the Padres.
- The Padres signed pitcher Bryan Corey. He has a strange delivery, and he doesn't look like he would be as good as he is. He was a solid part of our bullpen for a while.
- The Padres won 6-1 on Mother's Day while using their pink bats.
- Pitcher Shawn Estes got his 100th win after recovering from Tommy John surgery. He had been out of baseball for two years and five weeks.
- Adrian Gonzalez's older brother Edgar joined the major league team. Kevin Kouzmanoff got his first game of the season off while Edgar made his major league debut at third. Edgar had been in the minors for eight years.
- Jake Peavy went on the DL with a strained right elbow. He did not return for a month. The loss of him in the starting rotation was a big blow for the already-struggling team.
- Pitcher Chris Young was hit in the face with a ball off the bat of Albert Pujols in a game at Petco. After sitting on the ground near the mound for a while, Chris walked off the field with assistance from the trainer and a teammate. He had multiple fractures in his skull. In the same inning, Pujols slid into Josh Bard to score at home. His slide twisted Bardo's calf. Josh had to be supported off the field with a high ankle sprain.
- Near the end of the month, the Padres had another extra inning game. This one only went to the 18th, though. Adrian Gonzalez hit a three-run bomb to finally win it in the 18th.
- It was a strange way to win, but, hey, it got us a W. Paul McAnulty was hit-by-pitch in the bottom of the 9th with the bases loaded for a hit-by-pitch walk-off win. Strange, huh? I was laughing so hard!
- First baseman Tony Clark hits his first pitch-hit home run with the Padres, and three-run shot that put the Padres in top of the Mets. They swept the Mets for their first sweep of the year.
- Jake Peavy came off the DL in time to pitch in Yankee Stadium. He got bombed, but we got the Yanks when they were really hot.
- Left fielder Chase Headley also joined the team for the Yankees series. He hit his first home run in the third game. He played his natural position, third, as Kooz went down with back problems.
- We won four straight games with the score of 2-1. In the last one, Scott Hairston hit a walk-off homer. It was pretty amazing, and no team had ever done that before.
- Kevin Kouzmanoff hit a grand slam against his former team, the Indians. In Kooz's major league debut with Cleveland in 2006, he hit a grand slam in his first AB, first pitch he saw.
- I got to go to my first game of the year, a retro game vs. the Mariners. It was a loss, but I got to see Chase Headley hit a homer with Kooz on base. It was fun.
- First baseman Adrian Gonzalez got voted onto the NL All-Star team! He really deserved it, as he was undoubtedly the best player on this Padres team. He did a good job in the All- Star game too, playing all the extra innings and driving in a run.
- We won 15-8 against the Rockies. We had been down 8-3, and it didn't look very likely. But with the help of a few many-run outbursts, we were able to come back and win the game. It was very exciting.
- Scott Hairston heated up major-time. He was so hot that nobody could stop him. He got a lot of playing time. It was really neat to see!
- Greg Maddux got his 351st win. Finally.
- After his 100th strikeout, Khalil Greene went into the dugout and punched a storage bin in frustration. He fractured his left hand and did not play for the Padres for the rest of the season. It was not good. But Luis Rodriguez filled in very nicely at shortstop.
- Greg Maddux was traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers for two players to be named later. He didn't do the best for the Dodgers, but it was OK.
- On August 9th, the Padres turned 5 double plays in a game. It was pretty cool!
- I went to my second game of the year. It was a great pitcher's duel between Jake Peavy and Ben Sheets. Sheets finally fell apart though, as the Padres got three runs off of him. Our bullpen did allow a run, but then they handed it off to Trevor Hoffman. I had never seen Trevor Time in person, and I really enjoyed it. It was amazing. He did allow a home run to Mike Cameron, but we won. It was such a fun game!
- The Padres won a game against the Rockies, 16-7. It was obviously at Coors Field. Great game. I really enjoyed listening to it!
- Jody Gerut hit a huge walk-off for the Padres in the bottom of the 9th. It was very exciting.
- Chris Young almost had a perfect game in Milwaukee. But in the 8th, with 2 outs, Gabe Kapler hit a home run to break up the no-hitter, the shutout, and the perfect game. It was kind of sad, but CY was able to finish the game with 80-so pitches. And the Padres won!
- I went to my third game of the year, an 11-3 blowout of the Giants and Matt Cain. Adrian Gonzalez hit two home runs, one to left and one to right. His brother Edgar, also hit a home run. It was a really great game, and I got a ball from catcher Nick Hundley, too.
- Chris Young hit a homer in a 6-4 win. It was so funny to watch the 6-10 pitcher trot around the bases. I love it when things like that happen!
- We lost the last series of the season to the Pirates. We also lost the last game, pathetically as usual. Leaving 11 runners on, giving up 6 or so runs, the usual. It was sad, but we were kind of used to it. So ended the nightmare season.
- The talks for a Jake Peavy trade began. The fans were not happy.
- We signed a hitting coach, Jim Lefebvre, and a bench coach, Tim Simmons.
- Adrian Gonzalez won a Gold Glove. He is stellar over at first, so this was definitely deserved.
- The Padres picked up Brian Giles' option for 2009.
- Trevor Hoffman went into free agency. The Padres pulled their offer of the table, creating a rift between the two parties.
- Khalil Greene was traded to the St. Louis Cardinals for two pitchers. Thanks for the great years, Khalil, but it was time to go.
- Greg Maddux retired after 22 years in baseball. He had 355 wins.
- When a deal for Jake couldn't get done during the Winter Meetings, Jake was sort of taken off the block. The Padres won't be shopping Jake, but any other team is still welcome to approach them about him.
- The Padres announced their 40th anniversary celebration next year.
- The club is for sale.
- The Padres signed three minor league pitchers and a catcher. They also signed Jody Gerut and Luis Rodriguez to one-year contracts.
It was a long, hard year. But it was also the best of my life. I am ready to move on to a new year, though. I just can't wait for a new season of Padres baseball, a clean slate. I hope you have a wonderful, safe New Year's celebration! Thanks to all my readers! Happy New Year's!!

That's an amazing picture at the beginning of your post and I will be jealous if you say you took it. Many great things will come in '09 and it's been a pleasure reading your blog. Cheers to '09
Haha, no way did I take that, but thanks anyway🙂 I've never been to Opening Day, and I don't see it happening in the near future, but you never know🙂
Looking back is always bitter sweet. There are such great memories – but the passage of time…..I hope you have a wonderful New Year's Kaybee! And that 2009 is all that you want it to be!
2009 will mark the first year that I will catch an opening game when the Corpus Christi Hooks play the Tulsa Drillers on April 9th. It's also my wife's Birthday so I want to make it a memorable day for her. I hope that the weather will be warmer. Last year the first game we went to the temperature was in the low 50's with a brisk north wind coming off Corpus Christi Bay…I pray that 2009 is a good year for you.
Happy new year Kaybee! Boy, 2008 was really a tough year for our Padres. I got to see the game against Mets when Tony Clark hit that huge three-run HR. It was great! I wish the Padres can really play better in 2009. Let's not lose our faith! I hope your 2009 will be GREAT!
Wow. You either have a great memory, Kaybee, or you're a really good researcher. It's not easy to condense an entire year into highlights. Good job! Here's hoping 2009 will be a healthy and rewarding one for you and your Padres.
Thanks, Jane, but I did research it all. Going through the news archives for the entire season does take a bit of time though🙂
Adrian and Edgar Ginzalez are related?
I didn't know that!
Wow. Tremendous recap. That post you had a few posts ago in which you questioned your own fanhood? I think this post should answer that for you. Haha.

Just to be patriotic for a moment, the so-called German Chocolate Cake is actually an American invention, according to many, many sources we've consulted. (Nooooo, not just Wikipedia…) Turns out it was named for Baker's brand German Sweet Chocolate, which the original recipe specified. Actually, it was named after Sam German, the Baker's employee who created the sweet chocolate back in 1852 or so. Consider that your conversation starter for the next time you slice into this lovely little legacy of sorts.
German Chocolate Cake Recipe
- Quick Glance
- Serves 12 to 16
- For the filling
- 4 large egg yolks
- One 12-ounce can evaporated milk
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 6 pieces
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 1/3 cups sweetened shredded coconut
- 1 1/2 cups finely chopped pecans, toasted
- For the cake
- 4 ounces semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, chopped fine
- 1/4 cup Dutch-processed cocoa, sifted
- 1/2 cup boiling water
- 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting the pans
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 12 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened but still cool
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2/3 cup packed light brown sugar
- 3/4 teaspoon table salt
- 4 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup sour cream, at room temperature
- Make the filling
- 1. Whisk the yolks in a medium saucepan off the stove. Gradually whisk in the evaporated milk. Add the sugars, butter, and salt and cook over medium-high heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture is boiling, frothy, and slightly thickened, about 6 minutes.
- 2. Pour the mixture into a bowl, whisk in the vanilla, then stir in the coconut. Let cool until just warm. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until cool, at least 2 hours or up to 3 days. (Do not add the pecans now or they'll turn soggy. Have a little patience, my friend.)
- Make the cake
- 3. Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and adjust an oven rack to the lower-middle position. Combine the chocolate and cocoa in a small bowl and then add the boiling water over. Let stand to melt the chocolate, about 2 minutes. Whisk until smooth and let stand until room temperature.
- 4. Meanwhile, spray two 9-inch-round by 2-inch-high straight-sided cake pans with nonstick cooking spray and then line the bottoms with parchment or waxed paper rounds cut to fit. Spray the paper rounds, dust the pans with flour, and tap out any excess flour. Sift the flour and baking soda into a medium bowl or onto a sheet of parchment or waxed paper.
- 5. In the bowl of a standing mixer, beat the butter, sugars, and salt at medium-low speed until the sugar is moistened, about 30 seconds. Increase the speed to medium-high and beat until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 4 minutes, scraping down the bowl with a rubber spatula halfway through. With the mixer running at medium speed, add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition and scraping down the bowl halfway through. Beat in the vanilla, then increase the speed to medium-high and beat until light and fluffy, about 45 seconds. With the mixer running at low speed, add the chocolate mixture, then increase the speed to medium and beat until combined, about 30 seconds, scraping down the bowl once. (The batter may appear broken; this is okay.) With the mixer running at low speed, add the dry ingredients in 3 additions, alternating with the sour cream in 2 additions, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Beat in each addition until barely combined. After adding the final flour addition, beat on low until just combined, then stir the batter by hand with a rubber spatula, scraping the bottom and sides of the bowl. The batter will be thick. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans, spreading the batter to the edges of the pans with the rubber spatula and smoothing the surface.
- 6. Bake the cakes until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Cool in the pans 10 minutes, then invert the cakes onto a greased wire rack; peel off and discard the paper rounds. Cool the cakes to room temperature before filling, about 1 hour. (The cooled cakes can be wrapped in plastic wrap and stored at room temperature for up to 1 day.)
- Assemble the cake
- 7. Stir the toasted pecans into the chilled filling. Set one cake on a serving platter or cardboard round cut slightly smaller than the cake, and the second cake on a work surface (or leave it on the wire rack). With a serrated knife held so that the blade is parallel with the work surface, use a sawing motion to cut each cake into two even layers. Starting with the first cake, carefully lift off the top layer and set aside.
- 8. Using an icing spatula, distribute about 1 cup filling evenly on the cake, spreading the filling to the very edge of the cake and leveling the surface. Carefully place the upper cake layer on top of the filling; repeat using the remaining filling and cake layers. Dust any crumbs off the platter and serve. (The cake may be refrigerated, covered loosely with foil, up to 4 hours. If the cake has been refrigerated longer than 2 hours, let it stand at room temperature for 15 to 20 minutes before slicing and serving.)

Enjoying Your Home-Grown Cauliflower
Freshly picked cauliflower is crisp and flavorful when eaten raw with dip or in a salad. You can also steam, bake, or boil cauliflower to serve it hot with a cheese sauce or in a variety of dishes.
Prepare the Soil
Plant Your Cauliflower Seeds
Feed and Water Your Cauliflower
Blanch White Heads
Harvesting Your Cauliflower
Cauliflower flourishes in cool weather. Your crop will grow best if it matures during weather no hotter than 70 degrees, so in most regions it's best to treat cauliflower as a fall crop. In cool-summer areas, you can also transplant seedlings in spring 2-3 weeks before your last frost. If you have mild winters, such as in the Pacific Northwest or the Gulf Coast, you can plant in fall for overwintering and maturing in early spring.
Before planting cauliflower, work in a 2-inch layer of rich compost or other organic matter, such as Miracle-Gro® Organic Choice® Garden Soil.
Sow cauliflower seeds 1/2 inch deep and 24 inches apart in rows 3 feet apart. If you're starting the seeds indoors, wait until seedlings have 5 leaves (about 4-6 weeks) before transplanting them to your garden.
Cauliflower needs a constant supply of plant food and water to grow into strong mature plants. Apply a complete fertilizer, such as Miracle-Gro® Water Soluble All Purpose Plant Food when transplanting, then follow the label directions for additional feedings. Keep the soil cool and moist by watering as needed.
To ensure a bright white head on your cauliflower, cover the head while it is developing. This is called blanching. When the head reaches about 2 inches in diameter, pull the longest leaves up and over it, then tie them in place with twine. Purple and green cauliflower heads don't need to be blanched.
Your cauliflower is ready to harvest when the heads are 6-8 inches in diameter -probably about 10 days after blanching. Harvest by cutting the stalk just below the head.

The Honolulu Fire Department has completed its investigation into a fire at 1121 Nuuanu Avenue in Chinatown in rooms belonging to the Indigo Restaurant.
Investigators say the fire accidentally began in an employee lounge and was caused by an electrical malfunction in a wall outlet.
The fire occurred in the McLean Building on Tuesday at around 11:24 p.m.
Firefighters found heavy smoke from the Nuuanu Avenue and Bethel Street sides of the building and requested a second and third alarm while stretching hose lines into the building and attacking the fire, according to fire officials.
The fire had breached the ceiling in the employee lounge and was beginning to spread through the common attic. Firefighters were able to stop the fire's spread in the attic. The fire affected the employee lounge and an adjacent storage room.
About 55 firefighters battled the blaze. The fire was brought under control by 12:03 a.m.
The flames caused moderate damage to the employee lounge and an adjacent storage room and light damage to an office.
The restaurant itself on the first floor was not damaged by the fire. No one was in the building at the time of the fire and no injuries were reported.
Damage is estimated at $100,000.

Well, let's be honest, it could be any of them, but it's such a nasty thing to do, purposefully infecting people. Sheesh.

What the hell is wrong with these people??ReplyCancel
haven't posted for quite a while. how about the Canadian Gos?ReplyCancel
I don't think it's Colin Farrell. His Ma would kill him.
He may well have had an STD, but spreading it on purpose is sick in the head. And how long has it been since he broke any hearts?
Someone younger I think. RPatzz and his chewed toffee looking head?
Ttm, ill have to check that out.
Ocular challenges leave me one grumpy cat. Nothing pleases right now. Oh well this to shall pass….ReplyCancel

is she singing about a man or a woman?? It makes my hamster brain wonder every.single.time I hear itReplyCancel
I feel the same way about Forget You. Is he singing to the guy who took his girlfriend, or his girlfriend?? Make up your mind Cee Lo!!!ReplyCancel
Could be anyone really, Herpes is more common than people think, it's not a celeb STI.
1 in 5 Americans have herpes. And 85% of those people don't even know they have it.
And no, a condom does not work to prevent the spread.ReplyCancel
Anyone banging Butler or Ferrell should just assume they're going to get a "present" as a parting gift. Butler will pretty much bang any female that walks & Ferrell will pretty much bang anything. They're 2 of the biggest male ho's in Hollywood. So I doubt anyone would be truly upset to find out it's one of them.
Plus they BOTH have banged Hilton & Lohan. So they've both got to at least have the herp.ReplyCancel
I did, I did take it back, Snootches! And you live near him, PghGirl??ReplyCancel
I think it's Farrall. He's mended his ways and is a good papa to his boys, one of whom has Angelman Syndrome. Even Wikipedia calls him a former lothario and lists the women he's reportedly hooked up with, plus the sex tape and all the Playboy models. And it does say "in the past", and his past includes drugs and drinking.
I like him as an actor (In Bruges!!!!) but as a human being, if he's knowingly spreading an STD, he needs a b* slap and a bunch of lawsuits.ReplyCancel
There's no shame in having an STI, the shame is in KNOWINGLY spreading it without warning his partners.
Heart breaker? The only think I can think of is Vanessa Paradis was in a movie called Heartbreaker not that long ago. Johnny Depp?ReplyCancel
Never mind – Depp's from Kentucky or something like that.ReplyCancel

"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven," counted Brad Kaiwi Lum.
He is counting his daily intake of medication.
Lum has been living with HIV for nearly 20 years.
Two years ago, he had a major setback that sent him close to death.
"You come to a point where you say I've done everything I can. I've made peace with myself," he said.
Lum said he realized the choice to die was a choice he wanted to have.
"I didn't even have a say. I want to make sure that that doesn't happen to me ever again," he told KITV reporter Lara Yamada.
"It was a very moving experience actually," said retired Oncologist Dr. Chuck Miller.
He is a founding member of the Physicians Advisory Council for Aid in Dying which is partnering with the national organization called Compassion & Choices.
For the first time, in February, he prescribed a terminally-ill cancer patient a prescription to end her life.
"All we're offering is simply another choice," he said.
Compassion and Choices believes Aid in Dying is indeed legal in Hawaii.
On Wednesday, they put their money where their mouth is, with, for the first time in Hawaii, a full-page, color ad in the newspaper.
"It's the first time I've seen the ad," said one woman at Ala Moana Beach Park.
"I think you should have your right," said Wayne Kaya.
"I think I would leave that decision up to my family," said Michael Miasato.
"Certainly people have different views on this," said Hawaii Attorney General David Louie.
Advocates believe the way Hawaii's laws are written allow Aid in Dying.
But Louie maintains, prescribing that lethal dose is not only illegal, but a crime he plans to prosecute.
"Other states have allowed this and the state experiment is still continuing, but in Hawaii that has not passed. In Hawaii it is still illegal," he said.
"It's not suicide when a competent patient, who's going to die in six months anyway, says you know, I'm going to do this my way," said Miller.
"Right now, I want to be as healthy as I can," said Lum.
He is just one more, now engaged in the debate, as the controversy over how to live and how to die continues to grow.
"Are you prepared? Are you really, really prepared for that," he said.
Miller said he follows a very specific set of parameters similar to Oregon's Assisted Suicide law.
As of March 2013, 41 patients in Hawaii have asked for an evaluation, 17 have qualified, and Miller said a total of six have been prescribed medication, though none have died from that dose.
He told KITV4 the attorney general's office has yet to contact them with any concerns.
