A huge glut of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 information has hit the internet this morning, with game blog Kotaku posting a ton of what they say are details, pictures and audio covering the unannounced game's characters, story, gameplay, and more. In other words: If this turns out to be true, it's the spoiler of all spoilers for fans of Modern Warfare.
We're not going to post all the specific details here (even the illustrative picture you see above is from Modern Warfare 2), but be warned: If you want to keep your playing experience totally pristine, I'd stop reading now and would not visit Kotaku's site.
Overall (if Kotaku's reports turn out to be accurate), Modern Warfare 3 seems to keep pretty relatively true to the "formula" established by the first two Modern Warfare games. The campaign action picks up where the last game left off, and the succeeding levels will put you into the skin of a bunch of different characters, in locations throughout the world, and feature shooting levels interspersed with punchy, action-oriented sequences. Along with the one-off dudes, you'll be playing as both well-known MW characters from past games, and with some new "main" characters. According to the posts, all the loose ends from previous games will be tied up in the latest installment of the game.
Reports of the multiplayer mention 20 maps (although it's unclear how many of these are planned as DLC) and several different game modes.
So, what do you guys think? Are you going to check out the spoilers? Does it sound like a good game?

- Abstract
- This paper presents results from a study of the nitriding of AISI-316 stainless steel by a low-pressure pure-nitrogen rf plasma at a temperature of 400 degrees Celsius. The nitrided layers were examined with scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Rutherford backscattering and microhardness measurements. The results, when correlated with results from Langmuir-probe and spectroscopy measurements on the plasma, suggest that the density of excited neutral molecules is a more important influence on the nitriding kinetics than the density of ions in this particular process.

Missing Sunderland boy found safeJanuary 28,2014SUNDERLAND - Zachary Lee, a 12-year-old boy who was the subject of an Amber Alert issued on Monday was found alive and well around 11:30 p.m. on Monday in a New Hampshire hotel. His biological mother was taken into custody for questioning, police said.
Lee was reported missing from his foster home on North Road in Sunderland on Monday, at around 4:45 p.m., when he did not arrive home from school after being dropped off by the bus.
An Amber Alert was issued around 8:35 p.m. and numerous law enforcement officials participated in the search.
In a press release, the Vermont State Police said they got word around 10:30 p.m. on Monday that Lee had been seen in the company of his biological mother, Patricia Kane, 49, and his sister, Martha Lee, 17, at a restaurant in Hanover, N.H. Law enforcement officers ultimately located the three at a hotel in Lyme, N.H.
Kane, was taken into custody without incident for questioning about the disappearance of her son. Charges may be forthcoming stemming from the investigation being conducted by the Vermont State Police and in conjunction with the Bennington County State's Attorney's Office.
In earlier press releases, police said Lee had been recently repatriated from France. They said they were concerned because of his age and because he had only been in the Sunderland area since Jan. 14 so he was not familiar with Southern Vermont.
At the time, Kane was a suspect in Lee's disappearance.
"This is based on a documented history of such attempts while the child was in the custody of the Republic of France," police said in a press release.
Police said staff with the Vermont Department of Children and Families, as well as school employees, had reported that Kane had been "highly unstable and volatile" since Lee arrived in the U.S.
"All treatment team members have been working together to help safeguard against possible attempts to abscond with him," police said.
In the press release, the Vermont State Police extended "their sincere appreciation for the help of countless law enforcement agencies, private citizens and the press in the dissemination of information and efforts in locating Zachary."MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER A new report from a commission that studied the cost, availability and quality of...

Bringing the North African Experience Home
I think I figured out how to get the Tigers into the World Series this year. Revolution!
Ok, so the point of the article may have been that protestors in North Africa are still searching for outlet for their suppression and oppression over the past three decades. But I took away something slightly different. Let me quote here: "So Egyptians, especially younger ones that make up the typical soccer
crowd, know what crowds can accomplish, and have been emboldened by
recent people-power successes."
My point is, if it can work in Egypt, why not here? Sure, my call for a boycott of opening day may not have gained any traction but I think this new idea has more resiliency. After all, Detroit has all the necessary components. There's high unemployment, disaffected youth and a generally corrupt government. Kwame Kilpatrick anyone? Why not take this unchanneled rage and use it for something positive? A pennant and World Series for the Tigers would do the city good.
Here's how it works, if I understand the Egyptian scenario correctly. Your team is losing and you are unhappy. You and a couple thousand of your closest friends storm the field and demand that the Tigers be given the victory or you will continue to riot. In an effort to restore calm, the authorities (in this case the umpires) will have to choose between giving the Tigers the win or dealing with the caprices of the crowd. Should be a pretty simple decision. Really, it's just one step removed from Jim Joyce's admission of guilt following the Armando Galarraga almost perfect game. Imagine if the crowd had stormed the field and demanded right then and there that he reconsider. Problem solved.
Mind you, I'm not inciting violence. I don't want to see those colorful tigers at the entrance to Comerica Park uprooted nor do I want to see the seats turned into projectiles. But if we've learned one thing from Egypt and Tunisia, it's that people have power when they rise up as one. Detroit, you know what to do.

I hope that this was a tongue in cheek post, as the MLB has a rule for this kind of thing. 11-0 lost for the home team, aka forfeit.
That could work. There really should have been a charge on the field in protest of "the almost perfect game" there definetly needs to be some changes in beseball.
—Mark Gauthier
You should've won the MLB Fan Cave contest thing and commandeered the forum to start a revolution. They're relatively easy to fool.
Interesting idea. The critics and folks with the attentions span of a gnat certainly couldn't call such a win boring. But you know the networks are going to hate it. Not enough commercial spots. And the etiquette of following up on a riot with a victory parade does get a little dicey, but the Lakers have been managing well enough for years.

Advisory committee rejects truck detour plan for Barre
BARRE Theirs wont be the last word on the subject, but members of a citizens committee that was tasked with evaluating a downtown truck bypass believe it is time to steer big rigs back on to Barres newly rebuilt North Main Street.
With a City Council-approved 30-day trial period about to expire, members of the citys Transportation Advisory Committee agreed this week theyd seen and heard enough to recommend against making the temporary truck route on Summer Street permanent.
The committee arrived at its conclusion following the third in a series of public meetings involving an idea that is widely supported by downtown merchants and vehemently opposed by many who live, work and own property on Summer Street.
The latter group has been far more vocal and that was true again on Wednesday night when the committee picked up where it left off last week taking testimony on an idea that failed to gain any traction on the panel whose members arrived ready to reject it.
One, Paul Beyor, came armed with a four-page opinion that the committee agreed to tweak and submit to city councilors who will ultimately decide the question later this month.
Beyor, who lives in Barre Town and works for the state Agency of Transportation, read his opinion from start to finish, hammering home some of the points that have been repeatedly raised by those opposed to a bypass, which essentially diverts heavy truck traffic off North Main Street and on to Summer Street using Elm Street on one end and Maple Avenue on the other.
In Beyors view, it would be a mistake to turn Summer Street into a permanent truck route. North Main Street, he said, was specifically designed to handle the pounding of heavy truck traffic, features newly enhanced pedestrian-friendly amenities, and doesnt require drivers of large trucks to take four 90-degree turns on their way through the city.
According to Beyor, the upside of the truck route a more tranquil downtown is speculative at best, while the downside has been reflected in the testimony of those who have argued that the bypass raises serious safety concerns while transferring nuisances, including noise and truck exhaust, from the citys central business district to their mixed-use neighborhood.
Each time I observed traffic flow along the route and could not convince myself that the Summer Street truck route had any absolute advantage over allowing trucks to utilize (North) Main Street, Beyor said, reading from the opinion that he drafted following multiple trips to Summer Street over the course of the past month.
I believe transferring the diesel smell and noise to the more residential area on Summer Street is not beneficial to the city or the community in general, he added. The underlying safety considerations along Summer Street make for a very unfavorable mix of pedestrians and trucks... Hopefully the safety of the citizens will take priority over a speculated environmental improvement on (North) Main Street.
Beyors statement, which will be modified to reflect that it is the collective view of the committee before being submitted to the council, provoked a hearty round of applause from more than a dozen people who attended Wednesdays meeting.
Most of those people have property interests that would be directly affected if the Summer Street bypass is made permanent. However, there were a couple of notable exceptions, including the woman who runs a North Main Street arts center and the Northfield lawyer who represents the Vermont Truck & Bus Association. Both Sue Higby, executive director of Studio Place Arts, and Ed Miller, the VTBAs lawyer, spoke against the proposed truck route.
Though Millers testimony was fairly predictable, Higbys was something of a surprise.
According to Higby, while downtown Barre has its issues she doesnt believe trucks are one of them.
I dont think the detour is a good idea, she said. I actually am here to say: We need to share (North) Main Street with trucks.
That opinion is at odds with most downtown merchants, who believe Summer Street worked well as a construction detour when North Main Street was impassable for most of this year and could continue to function as a designated truck route.
However, Higby argued that is a narrow-minded view, which ignores Barres rich history as a working city.
People have forgotten or are sidestepping the fact that Barre is Barre and that theres something that we have to accept and embrace about being an industrial and a manufacturing city, she said. It doesnt make sense to me to be hiding the trucks that are part of our identity.
According to Higby, forcing large trucks to use a route that is home to two churches, a church-run school, and a funeral home, as well as a mix of small businesses and apartment houses was ridiculous.
Thats a fairly fragile population over on Summer Street and I think that they deserve better, she said.
Miller sounded a similar theme during his brief remarks, suggesting it was completely unfair and probably illegal to force large trucks off a section of federal highway that doubles as North Main Street in Barre and through a partly residential neighborhood.
In my mind youre really doing a disservice to the people on Summer Street, he said, noting those residents and business owners had no reason to believe their street could be turned into a designated truck route after North Main Street was reopened to through traffic.
According to Miller, the same can be said of his client.
I think youre doing a disservice to the trucking industry... by redirecting traffic from a U.S. highway that is built to take that traffic to a residential neighborhood, he said.
Committee members heard from others, including Summer Street resident Mariette Mitchell and Maple Avenue residents Ken and Lorette Baraw, before opening what proved to be a very brief deliberation.
Beyor a skeptic when the idea was first proposed said nothing hed observed over the past month had changed his mind, and committee members Frank Demell and Real Maurice quickly agreed with his assessment.
Demell argued truck traffic was part of having a bustling downtown.
Keep all the trucks on (North) Main Street, he said. It is the noise that creates the atmosphere. Its the hubbub that you want. All that racket. Its a live community its not dead. If you want it to sound like a cemetery go up to Hope Cemetery and sit around for awhile and see what it sounds like.
Chairman Fred Ford said the committee would finalize its recommendation in coming days and City Manager Steve Mackenzie said he planned to put it on the agenda for the Nov. 27 meeting of the City Council.

Diamonds. There is nothing quite like them. Along with all of their sparkle comes a cost that speaks volumes about those wearing and purchasing these precious carbon bobbles. As an investment, the ultra-wealthy love them. Plus they know that size and quality matter and the pay-off for the right stones can be terrific.
Recently, Sotheby's sold a 74.79 carat pear-shaped white diamond for $14.2 million—millions more than what was expected. Even though names of buyers and sellers in the oh-so brilliant diamond world are often as secretive as a cat burglar hoping to snatch jewels from an unsuspecting suitor, that's not [More]

Houston: We Have A Problem
And the problem is that you have beaten the Phillies 3 games in a row; the first one was a blow-out, the second one is on Brad Lidge, the worst closer in baseball and yesterday's loss came at the hands of Cole Hamels who got little help from his offense. While this mission has been a total failure, much like the Apollo 13, the Phillies have one more chance at a small amount of redemption this afternoon in Game 4 of the series with the Astros.
Hamels pitched 6 innings in the loss and gave up 4 runs on 8 hits and 2 walks. The most damage was done by ex-Phillie, Michael Bourn who went 2 for 4, stole 2 bases and scored twice. Hamels had Bourn picked off both times he stole but the first time, Jimmy Rollins dropped the ball and the second time, Bourn was milliseconds too fast. It was a very frustrating day for Hamels as the Astros wiped their backsides with him all game long.
Rollins led the game off with a homerun, but it was mostly downhill from there for the offense. The only bright spots at the plate came from the Rollins homer, a solo shot from Ben Francisco and Raul Ibanez went 2 for 4 and looks like he might be ready to break out of his slump. Jayson Werth also hit a solo homer that looked like a fan reached out and grabbed it; the umpires called it a homer and no one argued. It would not have mattered anyway as the Phillies went down 3-4.
A few more September call-ups were added yesterday, although it remains to be seen how much help they will be. John Mayberry Jr. and Kyle Kendrick flew in from Allentown, PA late on Saturday after the Iron Pigs game. Here they are at about 7pm that evening getting ready for the Pigs game:
Personally, I was hoping they would call up Mike Cervenak instead of Mayberry; Cervenak is batting .307 and currently ranks 6th in batting in the International League. Plus, he was the Phillies during the playoff run last season. Mayberry only batted .256 in AAA this year.
So the Phillies final chance to avoid total humiliation at the hands of the Astros will be at 2:05pm this afternoon. JA Happ gets the start – good luck to him!

When it's late in the seasons – loses can really effect the fans and the players. Everyone is tired and stressed and worried about the playoffs – and no one has enough off days! I'm sure the Phillies will come around.
I know how you feel. And a stretch of losses are terrible. The Phillies will be ok.
I hope they do eventually call up Cervenak, I also want to see Gary Majewski

great news
.. will play on the summer camp
Teams have used as an excuse an NBA e-mail alerting them to Lampe's contract problems. The biggest factor in Lampe's drop, the Knicks believe, is the agent not letting non-lottery teams work him out. Most teams scouted just a couple of his games.
"The Knicks got a break," one lottery-team executive said. "Sometimes teams aren't flexible enough to change their plan. It's a great excuse, the contract, instead of saying we didn't do our homework. Those contract things always get worked out."
Keith Kreiter, Lampe's agent, said, "Teams overanalyzed it and made a mistake. He's got as much upside as anyone after the top three."
When converted, the buyout figure is roughly $2 million. Since the Knicks are permitted under the CBA to pay just $350,000, Lampe would have to foot the rest.
Unless they dip into their $4.9M mid-level exception for free agents, the Knicks can only pay a second-round pick the NBA minimum $400,000. Even though Lampe makes substantially less in Spain, he still would come out losing money.
However, Kreiter said the $2M buyout figure is "very negotiable" and their aim is to reduce the figure by being "creative." The Knicks are willing to play an exhibition game in Madrid and conduct coaching clinics for Real Madrid's staff. As a model, Pau Gasol's buyout clause in Spain was $3M but reduced to less than $1M with agreements to play an exhibition game.
The NBA e-mail that allegedly scared off teams read, "We recently advised teams that we received a letter of clearance from FIBA. The letter of clearance is in error." The e-mail reported a buyout clause exists with Real Madrid.
Mike Sweetney, whom the Knicks took at No. 9 to fill their low-post void, doesn't have the upside of Lampe, but he's read y to fit into the rotation immediately. In fact, Don Chaney declared that if Antonio McDyess isn't ready by training camp, the starting power forward position is open.

[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
woohoooThe Knicks received terrific news yesterday as Real Madrid granted 7-foot teen sensation Maciej Lampe permission to play for the Knicks' summer-league team, sources told The Post.
Although the 18-year-old forward still has not finalized a contract buyout, Real Madrid's change of heart indicates a willingness to get a deal done soon. The Post has been told the Polish marksman was in the process of getting a private insurance policy to protect him against injury during the two-week summer-league schedule. Real Madrid had forbidden Lampe from playing until yesterday.
Practices begin at the Knicks' Westchester facility today with a double session. Lampe, compared to Dirk Nowitzki, is expected to fly in this morning from Chicago and could be in uniform for the second session.

Sources familiar with the talks said Real Madrid is more ready to make a deal than it was two weeks ago. Already, progress has been made in reducing the $2 million buyout figure and convincing the Spanish team to allow some sort of payment plan. Lampe has to pay all but $350,000 of the buyout.
Suddenly, the 18-year-old Lampe not only looks like he's going to make it in the NBA, but he may be ready to contribute this season. Lampe last night followed up Wednesday's 21-point performance with a 13-point outing, making 6 of 15 shots. Though he missed a lot of his perimeter shots, Lampe scored most of his buckets inside, including two wonderful spin moves for layups in the Knicks' 96-78 loss to the Celtics.
Lampe was named this weekend to the First-Team All Revue after averaging 17.2 points and 7.0 rebounds in the five games. He shot 45 percent from 3-point range (9 of 20), finding the long-range touch that deserted him in Boston.

"Frisky" Werth, the Name Game, and More Tongue
"I guess he was feeling frisky"
Thus spake Charlie Manuel last night, after Jayson Werth stole home in the seventh inning, for his fourth steal of the night. Manuel was taken by surprise just as much as the rest of us. I have to admit, I was staring right at the TV and almost didn't realize what was going on, as Werth came flying into the screen and under the tag.
Werth took advantage of catcher Russell Martin's casual lobbing of the ball back to relief pitcher Ronald Belisario. Martin had pretty much ignored Werth as he was on third, so once the opportunity presented itself, he took off.
Werth's four steals in a game tied a team record, shared by Garry Maddox and Sherry Magee.
What's your name?
You may notice in the above picture that Russell Martin's jersey has his name as "J. Martin". What's up with that, my husband and I wondered. A little internet searching turned up an article on the Dodgers website that sheds light on the matter. The J. stands for Jeanson, one of Russell's multiple middle names, and also the maiden name of his mother. Using the J. is his way of paying tribute to his mom.
In case you were wondering, Martin's full name is Russell Nathan Jeanson Coltrane Martin.
Quite a mouthful, but still one name short of this beauty:
Calvin Coolidge Julius Ceasar Tuskahoma McLish, aka Cal McLish. Cal pitched for seven teams over the course of his career, finishing with the Phillies from 1962-64.
Gimme some tongue
It seems everywhere I look these days, there are more pictures of players with their tongues hanging out. What is going on here? This image was found on the Philadelphia Inquirer's coverage of last night's game, showing Orlando Hudson caught in a rundown:
I'm surprised no one ends up biting their tongue (literally) while doing this.
On Monday morning, I found this little gem, also featured by Jane Heller. Somehow, it looks R-rated (or at least PG-13):
Grammar/music/history lesson for the day
No, I did not make a typo, "spake" is actually a word. It is the past tense of speak, though it is an archaic form. It also reminded me of the Richard Strauss composition, Also Sprach Zarathustra, which is sometimes translated into English as "Thus Spake Zarathustra". You may recognize its introduction as the memorable musical theme from 2001: A Space Oddysey. Zarathustra, also known as Zoroaster, was an ancient Iranian prophet and religious poet.
So, am I likening Charlie Manuel to a prophet? Absolutely not. It just sounded good.

Wow, that is so cool that Werth stole four bases, including home! Kind of strange that nobody knew about either, except for him. Really interesting about Martin. I love those really long names🙂
Great game for Werth. I didn't realize he was so speedy (or should I say "frisky"). And yes, tongues seem to be hanging out all over the place. Weird!
Nice entry! I hope that stealing home becomes a part of every teams strategy. I saw one of those as part of a double steal in the first O's game I saw at Camden Yards!
I knew about Cal McLish's middle names, but had never seen his autograph! That's pretty neat.
Also, I have taken your suggestion and have awarded my very first Macher of the Month to Ryan Braun. Please take a look at the entry when you have a chance.
Kaybee – I never really think of Werth as a base-stealing threat. If you heard a Phillie stole home you would probably think it would be Rollins or Victorino. Very exciting!
Jane – Strange pictures just seem to catch my eye! Butts, tongues, let's hope it doesn't get any stranger than that!
Ken – What was really neat was that it was a straight steal; the bases were loaded at the time. They also noted that the last time a Phillie stole home, it was as part of a double steal, and the last player you would expect – Carlos Ruiz! I'll be sure to check out your latest entry, too!
Yay Werth! He is on my fantasy team! And I will agree – the photo of Joba and Swisher just looks wrong.
Calvin Coolidge Julius Ceasar Tuskahoma McLish, aka Cal McLish. I remember him. He was mentioned in the Phillies' Centennial film on the team's first 100 years, in the segment about Phillies players ' nickname. The singer sang his name, saying several things about it, including it has class, and then saying "…Who's reposible for calling you, Buster???"
Listening to the game on my way home it was sickening to hear Werth stole home. Ughh and to think he was a Dodger! Way to stick it to us. What were my boys doing! Sleeping….Let's see what the second game brings. Two old veterans on the mound with Wolf & Moyer. I have friends in Phlly who have season tickets. The wife is a Phillie phan and the husband is a Dodger fan.
Sue- I think what puts Cal McLish above Russell Martin's name isn't just that there's one more name there, but that one of those names is Tuskahoma.
Yes, guys are invoking their inner Michael Jordans I guess. I heard the "J. Martin" story during the WBC when he had it on his Canadian uni but didn't think he'd continue to do that during the MLB season. Apparently, I know nothing😉
Hi there! Made it through yesterday in one piece and have finally woken up :O) Just posted pictures…goo news..they added a clubhouse tour to the program!!! It was awesome! Hope you get to go in Aug.!

2013: Rapper Chris Kelly, 34, dies at an Atlanta hospital after he was found unresponsive at his home. Kelly (right) was best known as one-half of the duo Kris Kross, who scored a No. 1 hit in 1992 with "Jump" and were known for their fashion style, which consisted of wearing their clothing backward. An autopsy later determined Kelly had died of an accidental drug overdose caused by the combined toxic effects of heroin, cocaine, ethanol and hydrocodone, and alprazolam.
2011: President Barack Obama announces that Osama bin Laden, the suspected mastermind behind the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, had been killed by United States special forces in Abbottabad, Pakistan. Due to the time difference between the U.S. and Pakistan, bin Laden was actually killed on May 2.
2011: Pope John Paul II is beatified by his successor, Pope Benedict XVI, after the Congregation for the Causes of Saints attributed one miracle to him, the healing of a French nun from Parkinson's disease. Beatification is a recognition by the Catholic Church of a dead person's entrance into heaven and capacity to intercede on behalf of individuals who pray in his or her name. A second miracle was attributed to him in July 2013 and he was canonized as a saint, together with Pope John XXIII, on April 27, 2014.
2010: A car bomb is discovered in New York City's Times Square after street vendors notice smoke coming from a vehicle. The bomb ignited, but failed to detonate and was disarmed before it could cause any injuries. Faisal Shahzad, a naturalized U.S. citizen born in Pakistan, would eventually plead guilty to 10 counts arising from the bombing attempt and be sentenced to life in prison.
2009: Sweden becomes the seventh country in the world to legalize same-sex marriage.
2003: While on board the USS Abraham Lincoln off the coast of California, President George W. Bush declares that "major combat operations in Iraq have ended."

Bush's assertion -- and the banner itself -- became controversial after guerrilla warfare in Iraq increased during the Iraqi insurgency.
2003: Professional wrestling manager Elizabeth Ann Hulette, known by her stage name Miss Elizabeth, dies of a drug and alcohol overdose at the age of 42 in Marietta, Georgia. She became famous in the mid-1980s to early 1990s as the manager and eventual wife of wrestler "Macho Man" Randy Savage.
2001: Chandra Levy, an intern at the Federal Bureau of Prisons in Washington, D.C., goes missing. The resulting investigation led to allegations of an affair with U.S. Rep. Gary Condit, a married, five-term Democrat from California. Condit was never named a suspect by police and was eventually cleared of involvement. Levy's remains would be found more than a year later in a city park. Nearly eight years after her death, D.C. authorities would charge Ingmar Guandique, an illegal immigrant from El Salvador, with Levy's murder. Guandique, who had already been convicted of assaulting two other women in the park where Levy's remains were found, was convicted in November 2010 and sentenced in 2011 to 60 years in prison.
2000: American actor and bodybuilder Steve Reeves, who, at the peak of his career, was the highest-paid actor in Europe, dies from complications of lymphoma at the age of 74 in Escondido, California.

1998: Writer and activist Eldridge Cleaver, who became an early leader of the Black Panther Party in the 1960s, dies at the age of 62 in Pomona, California. Although Cleaver's family requested that his cause of death not be revealed, he was known to have diabetes and prostate cancer.
1991: Rickey Henderson of the Oakland Athletics steals the 939th base of his career, making him the major-league all-time leader. However, his accomplishment was overshadowed later that night by Texas Rangers pitcher Nolan Ryan, who pitched his seventh career no-hitter, breaking his own record. Both Henderson and Ryan still hold the career records for steals and no-hitters, respectively.

Norton Simon Museum, Anonymous Gift through the American Federation of Arts
© 2008 Larry Bell
Not on view
Larry Bell was a member of the circle of artists associated with the Ferus Gallery in Los Angeles in the 1960s. His artistic development was as
innovative as it was rapid. Though his early work displayed the painterly and calligraphic forms of Abstract Expressionism, he soon began a radical simplification of his practice in an effort to incorporate elements of light and illusion, two preoccupations that have remained a constant in his oeuvre.
Ida Rose is an example of the subtle, immaculate and quasi-monochromatic paintings that Bell was working on at age 23. Four geometric forms surround a monumental skewed rectangle that occupies the center of the canvas by virtue of its being left unpainted. The painting's orientation, already off-kilter given the tilted axis of the rectangle, is further complicated by the cutting away of two diagonally opposite corners. Bell's rigorous forms on the hexagonal canvas create a visual conundrum: The sharp-edged shapes are space-denying in their flatness, yet the relationship between them and the exterior of the shaped canvas suggests an optical illusion—a perspectival puzzle that hints at dimension and volume. This work prefigures the artist's next step—to implicate a third dimension by inserting painted mirrors and glass into the center of the canvas. Bell's meticulously defined forms, reduced color and strict avoidance of gesture and brushwork endeared him to supporters of the Minimalist and Hard-Edge aesthetics. In fact, his practice demonstrates the California preference for making objects over pictures, which was a foundation of the Light and Space Movement to which he contributed mightily.

text: I have been nursing my almost 12 month old twins most sessions since December (3 months premature July 2010 and pumped while they were in the hospital and while I am working in the morning.) They have slept through the night from 9:30pm to 6am since Feb, but I still get up to pump around 2-3am to keep my supply. Last week it seemed like everything was fine-had an oversupply and still was getting 8oz at the night pumping, but this week it seems like my supply is down to 4-6 ozs. My breast are less full now at the 2-3am session and around 6am too. I pump when they feed from a bottle while at work in the morning, but get about 10-12 sessions with breast and pumping at day. They feed 12 or more on the weekends when I breastfeed all day, but sometimes they only nurse through one letdown now. Are they starting to self wean so my supply is going down? I have not gotten a period yet. They seem to still want to nurse that much, but for not as long. Also they are very interested in self feeding table food so that has increased recently, but I nurse them before and after usually.

More binge-viewing options beckon after 'Breaking Bad'
Has the end of "Breaking Bad" left you with a case of quality TV withdrawal? Understandable — even Oscar-winning actor Anthony Hopkins was so smitten by "Breaking Bad" he wrote a fan letter to Bryan Cranston, who played Walter White, the science teacher turned meth manufacturer, after Hopkins finished binge-watching the show.
He called Cranston's performance "the best acting I have seen — ever" and wrote that the show was "spectacular — absolutely stunning....What started as a black comedy, descended into a labyrinth of blood, destruction and hell." »Read Full Article
28-year-old Eleanor Catton's Booker-winning 'The Luminaries' casts a brilliant light
Begin with an intricate, self-consciously Victorian plot, of the page-turning sort that Sarah Waters gives us in "Fingersmith." Mix with the psychologically intense, cat-and-mouse dialogue that characterizes the novels of Henry James. Add the moral and philosophical vision of George Eliot. Bake in a deliberately mythic structure that calls to mind James Joyce's "Ulysses."
What emerges is 28-year-old Eleanor Catton's "The Luminaries," an 848-page dish so fresh that one continues to gorge, long past being crammed full of goodness. Nearly impossible to put down, it's easily the best novel I've read this year. The Man Booker judges feel the same way, having just given her this year's prize. »Read Full Article

Whitney Fosco
Whitney's Interview
Bradley is perfect for an ambitious student like me because it allows me to be an active part of my education. In many large schools students are expected to sit in a classroom and be passive learners, simply taking in information. At Bradley, I am able to work independently, while still being pushed and receiving guidance from my professors. Not only do they teach, but they also run research labs, coordinate departmental social events, and organize professional development seminars. Overall, the professors here invest time in their students and want each of us to succeed.
Working in my professor's lab has allowed me to become both proactive in my education and competitive in my search for graduate schools. In my junior year I was able to present at two research conferences. I am currently working towards my own honor's thesis, a three semester long project in which I am able to research independently, with the aid of a faculty member.
Next year I will be applying to Ph.D. programs in Clinical Psychology. This is one of the most highly competitive graduate programs, with top schools accepting around 5% of applicants. At Bradley I have received both research and practical experience, developed writing skills, and learned to be a student responsible for her own academic success. All of these experiences and skills, along with great letters of recommendation from my professors, will undoubtedly make me a strong applicant for admission to these programs.
Unlike most college students, I wouldn't say I have a vibrant social life. In a typical day I go to class, go to work, go to cheerleading practice and then come home and do homework until I pass out. Despite this hectic schedule, I love every part of it. I have mastered time management and made friends through the activities with which I am involved. I think of it this way- after spending about 70 hours a week on schoolwork, research, cheerleading and other Bradley related activities, working a 40-50 hour workweek will be easy.

Report: Angels About to Acquire Scott Kazmir from Rays for Alex Torres and Matt Sweeney
Multiple media outlets report a trade about to happen between the Angels and the Tampa Bay Rays. The Angels would acquire 25-year old LHP Scott Kazmir from the Rays for Arkansas LHP Alex Torres and Rancho Cucamonga 3B Matt Sweeney.
The Los Angeles Times reported the trade, then MLB.com reported the trade fell through, and now the St. Petersburg Times says the trade may still happen but the hangup may be the Rays wanting a third minor leaguer to be named later.
Updates when available.

Latest I've heard on tv and radio down here (not to mention the sources you mentioned above) is that the trade is dead. For now, anyway. I hope we can hang on to Kaz b/c to let him go at this point in the year, for minor leaguers!, would be a mistake.
I agree, if the Angels get Kazmir for Torres and Sweeney I'll be shocked. Kazmir is a two-time All-Star and just entering his prime. Yes, he's had a down year, but his best season was when he had Mike Butcher as his pitching coach in Tampa so I think Butch will get him straightened out.
If I were the Rays, I'd be asking for Trevor Reckling, not Torres.
The Rays are only 3 1/2 games out in the wild card race. This seems like a unilateral surrender unless they get someone who can help them right away, like Brandon Wood, but they don't need Wood.
