The White Sox and left-handed pitcher Chris Sale have agreed to a five-year, $32.5-million contract.
Sale will earn $850,000 in 2013, $3.5 million in 2014, $6 million in 2015, $9.15 million in 2016 and $12 million in 2017. The Sox hold options at $12.5 million for 2018 and at $13.5 million for 2019. Should either option be declined, Sale will receive a $1 million buyout.
The new deal covers Sale's three arbitration years as well as his first year of free agency.
Sale, who turns 24 on March 30, went 17-8 with a 3.05 ERA and 192 strikeouts in 2012, his first year as a starting pitcher. He was also named to his first All-Star team and finished six in the American League Cy Young Award voting.
"We are thrilled to be able to reward Chris for his accomplishments thus far in his career and to keep one of the best young starters in the league in a White Sox uniform for potentially the next seven years," general manager Rick Hahn said in a statement.

Family Reunions
Don't be afraid to ask relatives for assistance. Accept their help!
Getting Started
- Locate relatives: Ask other family members to help find everyone.
- Select a date six months to a year in advance to allow for adequate planning.
- Sleeping accommodations: Inventory the homes of local relatives. Consider:
- Sleeping bags on the floor for kids
- A guest room or two
- Check local hotels for group rates
- Campers
- Where to hold the reunion:
- Your home or another relative's
- Local church
- Fraternal organization halls
- City parks
- Restaurant or hotel party rooms
Set the Mood
- Ideas for invitations:
- Collect a photo of the oldest member and the youngest member of the family. Attach photos to a piece of paper folded to make a card. Write general information in the card.
- Suggested copy: "Let's get everyone together from our newest member to our most respected."
Photocopy and send to every household.
- Cut out a tree from brown construction paper for a family tree. Glue it to a white piece of paper. Write reunion details around the tree in green ink at angles to resemble leaves. Create one for each family, or photocopy in color for more copies.
- Photocopy a genealogy chart. Reduce it to the size you need. Use it as the cover for your invitation.
- Collect a photo of the oldest member and the youngest member of the family. Attach photos to a piece of paper folded to make a card. Write general information in the card.
- Continue the mood or create a new one with the table decorations:
- Cover tables with washable or sturdy paper cloths. They can represent Americana or your family's ethnic background.
- Decorate with large bunches of flowers on the serving tables. You may also want to decorate with arrangements of fruit.
- Decorate eating tables with smaller bunches of flowers.
- Silverware may be wrapped in paper napkins tied with ribbons for ease in carrying.
Menu: Great Food for a Great Get-Together
- Plan a food and beverage budget taking into consideration the resources of all family members.
- Ask family members to donate money, food, or beverages.
- Build your menu to your budget.
- Keep the menu simple. Choose familiar, easy-to-prepare recipes.
- Use convenience foods when possible. Quick bread and cake mixes are great time savers.
- Prepare and freeze items ahead of time. Quick breads, brownies, cakes and cookies can be frozen a few weeks ahead.
- Cooking some family favorites together could be a reunion activity. You might:
- Barbecue chicken, fish, beef, or pork
- Deep-fry a turkey
- Plan a pig roast
- Plan extra food for snacking and meals for children.
- Have a good supply of extra ice, 1 ½ lbs. per person.
- Check all equipment and serving pieces needed for each menu item. Remember, you can borrow or rent items like large coffee urns, extra grills, even plates and silverware.
Family Fun: Let the Games Begin
- Provide nametags, especially if some relatives won't recognize each other. Give each family a different color tag.
- Ask each relative to share a significant event from the last year or so.
- Have T-shirts printed with the names of all the family members and the date of the reunion. Ask for donations to pay for the shirts.
- Delegate someone to organize kids' games.
- Delegate someone to bring balls and equipment for adult games.

It was a hell of a week in the mobile world.
Google + Motorola = ?
Google announced the purchase of Motorola Mobility for a whopping $12.5 billion and now finds themselves in the hardware business. Ironic given HP's announcement in the same week declaring that they were getting out of hardware. Google's story to the press is primarily about patents. They have been priming the pump four a couple weeks by making public statements to the effect that Apple is choosing to litigate, not innovate.
While valuable, you can be fairly sure that the acquisition is about more than just patents. It's generally agreed that the Android user experience is not as good as Apple's. Much of that has to do with the concessions Google must make to carriers and manufacturers and to the lack of control Google has in what happens to their OS once it leaves the Google firewall. My guess is that Google realizes they need to control the end-to-end user experience in order to make devices that are more competitive with Apple on the engagement front. While there are a lot of Android devices being sold, those users aren't as active in consuming apps and data as users on iOS devices. A more seamless user experience may be the key to getting Android users more engaged. After all, Google is in this game to increase traffic to its cash cow, advertising.
RIP TouchPad, Pre and PC Says HP
Post-PC era indeed. Once again, Steve Jobs has proven prescient when it comes the direction of technology markets. Perhaps that's because Apple pretty much controls technology markets. Just a couple months ago at WWDC 11, he was demoting the PC to just another device and once again declaring this the post-PC era (first declared in June 2010).
This week, HP helped make Jobs' pronouncements a reality. In a somewhat shocking move, HP announced that it was getting out of the hardware business entirely and would now focus on services. A casualty of the change were the TouchPad and Pre devices built to run the recently acquired WebOS mobile operating system. As of now there are no devices being manufactured to run WebOS, but if you hurry you might be able to get a really great deal on the devices that remain on the market.
In response to the announcement, Microsoft is trying to get WebOS developers to switch to WP7 by offering them free phones. My guess is they will just get tech savvy users looking to score a free phone.
What happens to WebOS remains to be seen. While most presumed WebOS was dead, HP says it just isn't so. But what will they do with WebOS? Put it in printers (yawn)? Hang on to Palm for the patents? License the OS to other manufacturers like Samsung and HTC?
Skype Buys GroupMe Messaging Startup
Skype was busy this weekend. They bought GroupMe for an estimated $85 million. GroupMe is a group messaging service built on top of the Twilio platform. It allows users to quickly spin up groups by dynamically assigning them phone numbers and allowing them to communicate by SMS or the GroupMe app. That means it works even if you don't download the app and even if your friends or co-workers don't have a smartphone. It's a great service for communicating with teams or groups of friends. I used it a ton at the last SXSW. It seems like a logical fit for Skype who, like everyone else in the tech industry, sees their future firmly planted in mobile devices.
PayPal Acquires Zong
PayPal has definitely been benefitting from the mobile explosion and is now planning to extend their mobile payment services to include Zong, a company I had never heard of until yesterday. Zong reduces the friction of making payments online by saving users the trouble of entering all their credit card and contact information when ordering products. Instead, Zong just sends an approval code to the user's mobile device. Pretty clever.

I have a happy EBF 7 month old DD, and I've just gone back to work. Luckily, supply is not an issue and I easily pump 16oz a day in 2 sessions at work, and BF her 4 times a day on top of that (4-5am, 8am, 6pm, 10-11pm). She takes 10oz while I'm gone, plus a few more mixed in her cereal. She's not enthusiastic with the solids, but is up to maybe 2 tbsp of cereal 2x daily, and 2 oz of fruit/veg 2x daily.
My question: how much can I expect I'll need to nurse her over the next 6 months or so? I know lots of LO over a year are maybe bf am and night plus a few little snacks, but I'm not sure how to get to that stage from where we are now. Can anyone suggest how it might go? How long do I likely have to keep pumping? 3 mos? 6 mos? Having some guidelines or experiences of others would be really helpful. I know it varies a lot, but I have no idea how long, especially with this pumping thing.

- Abstract
- We present a systematic comparison of the most recent thermodynamic measurements of a trapped Fermi gas at unitarity with predictions from strong-coupling theories and quantum Monte Carlo (MC) simulations. The accuracy of the experimental data, of the order of a few percent, allows a precise test of different many-body approaches. We find that a Nozie?res and Schmitt-Rink treatment of fluctuations is in excellent agreement with the experimental data and available MC calculations at unitarity.

Mourners arrive at a cremation ground to attend the funeral of a rape victim after her body arrived from Singapore, in New Delhi on Sunday.
NEW DELHI - The body of a woman whose gang rape provoked protests and rare national debate about violence against women in India arrived back in New Delhi early on Sunday and was quickly cremated at a private ceremony.
The unidentified 23-year-old medical student died from her injuries on Saturday, prompting promises of action from a government that has struggled to respond to public outrage.
She had suffered brain injuries and massive internal injuries in the attack on Dec. 16, and died in hospital in Singapore where she had been taken for treatment.
She and a male friend had been returning home from a movie theater, media reports say, when six men on a bus beat them with metal rods and repeatedly raped the woman. The friend survived.
India charges six suspects with murder after victim of horrific gang rape dies
Six suspects were charged with murder after her death.
A Reuters correspondent saw family members who had been with her in Singapore take her body from the airport to their Delhi home in an ambulance with a police escort.
Ruling party leader Sonia Gandhi was seen arriving at the airport when the plane landed and Prime Minister Mannmohan Singh's convoy was also there, the witness said.
A 23-year-old medical student who was raped and attacked on a city bus in New Delhi has died, resulting in charges against six men. Even before she died, her savage attack triggered mass protests about treatment of women. NBC's Duncan Golestani reports.
The body was then taken to a crematorium and cremated. Media were kept away but a Reuters witness saw the woman's family and government officials, including junior home minister, R.P.N. Singh, coming out of the crematorium.
Security in the capital remained tight after authorities, worried about the reaction to the news of her death, had on Saturday deployed thousands of policemen and closed some roads and metro stations.
Protesters still gathered, in New Delhi and other cities, to keep the pressure on Singh's government to get tougher on crime against women. Last weekend, protesters fought pitched battles with police.
On Sunday, lines of policemen in riot gear and armed with heavy wooden sticks stood in front of metal barricades closing off roads in New Delhi. Morning traffic was light.
Government caught off-guard
The outcry over the attack caught the government off-guard. It took a week for Singh to make a statement, infuriating many protesters.
Issues such as rape, dowry-related deaths and female infanticide rarely enter mainstream political discourse in India.
The 23-year-old who was gang-raped in New Delhi and thrown from a bus has died from her injuries in Singapore, where she was being treated. NBC's Natalie Morales reports.
Analysts say the death of the woman dubbed "Amanat," an Urdu word meaning "treasure," by some Indian media could change that, although it is too early to say whether the protesters calling for government action to better safeguard women can sustain their momentum through to national elections due in 2014.
India gang-rape victim dies in hospital; case focused attention on sexual violence
Newspapers raised doubts about the commitment of both male politicians and the police to protecting women.
"Would the Indian political system and class have been so indifferent to the problem of sexual violence if half or even one-third of all legislators were women?" the Hindu newspaper asked.
The Indian Express acknowledged the police force was understaffed and poorly paid, but there was more to it than that.
"It is geared towards dominating citizens rather than working for them, not to mention being open to influential interests," the newspaper said. "It reflects the misogyny around us, rather than actively fighting for the rights of citizens who happen to be female."
PhotoBlog: Police try to temper outrage over gang rape
Most sex crimes in India go unreported, many offenders go unpunished, and the wheels of justice turn slowly, according to social activists, who say that successive governments have done little to ensure the safety of women.
Commentators and sociologists say the rape has tapped into a deep well of frustration many Indians feel over what they see as weak governance and poor leadership on social issues.
New Delhi has the highest number of sex crimes among India's major cities, with a rape reported on average every 18 hours, according to police figures. Government data show the number of reported rape cases in India rose by nearly 17 percent between 2007 and 2011.

Rose rosette disease is a viral disease that is becoming increasingly more common in Georgia. Extension agents throughout the state seem to be receiving more samples of infected roses.
Studies have proven that children who spend more time outdoors score higher on tests, get more exercise and have an increased level of vitamin D. For those reasons and more, Kristina Williams has initiated a gardening project for children that she hopes will also give them an appreciation for growing their own food.
"I am a resident of River Island and the garden areas are all but abandoned," said Williams, founder of Benderdinker, considered the largest kayaking event in the South. "They need a lot of TLC, but the basics are there so it seemed like a perfect fit."

Vt. selectman's widow sues hospital over deathMarch 30,2013
BENNINGTON - The widow of a select board member in Pownal, Vt., has sued a hospital, accusing it of causing her husband's death in 2011.
The complaint was filed in Bennington Superior Court by Jean Prouty. It says Donald Prouty Jr. suffered a fall at Southwestern Vermont Medical Center that caused complications leading to his death.
The Bennington Banner reports (http://bit.ly/X0xKfZ) Prouty, who had Hepatitis C, went to the hospital complaining of head and neck pain from recent falls.
Hospital staff determined the 56-year-old Prouty was at a high risk of falling and ordered a bed alarm and "personal sitters."
The lawsuit says no one was in his room and the alarm was deactivated when he fell. He fractured his pelvis and suffered internal bleeding.
A hospital lawyer denies the allegations.

STATEMENT FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASEMarch 30, 2009 Contact: Dave Nelson (512) 463-0112
AUSTIN — The Senate Committee on State Affairs today approved legislation by State Senator Jane Nelson, R-Flower Mound, establishing a health insurance pool for children in the child support system. SB 66, which passed unanimously, moves to the full Senate for further consideration.
"This legislation will enhance the state's ongoing effort to connect more Texas children to health insurance," Senator Nelson said. "By re-directing 'cash medical support' dollars into this health care pool, we are creating an option for parents who do not qualify for government-funded health care, yet have no health insurance available through their employers."
Federal law requires parents in the child support system to provide health coverage for their children. If no coverage is available to either parent, a judge typically orders the non-custodial parent to pay cash medical support to the custodial parent. SB 66:
The Legislative Budget Board has determined that there is no cost to the state associated with this bill. The Office of Attorney General estimates that approximately 200,000 children who currently lack health insurance will be covered under this legislation.
SENATOR JANE NELSON represents District 12, including portions of Tarrant and Denton Counties. She is Chairman of the Senate Committee on Health & Human Services.

Work to begin on Gunbarrel Center in March
- published_in
- Today's News
Situated on about 9.3 acres at the southwest corner of Gunpark Drive and Lookout Road, Gunbarrel Center will include 251 market-rate apartments and about 29,000 square feet of commercial space spread out among 14 three-story buildings to the east of Gunbarrel's King Soopers grocery store.
The Wolff Company's Rob O'Dea said the first apartments could be delivered by spring of next year, with the entire project taking 18 to 24 months.
Gunbarrel Center will include a small amphitheater and a new "Main Street" running through the center of the development. BAR Architects of San Francisco designed the project.
O'Dea said the makeup of the commercial space is to be determined, but could be a mix of retail and professional office space. He said at least one restaurant, in particular, is being targeted to help give Gunbarrel residents and workers more dining options.
O'Dea said that along with a couple of other large apartment complexes coming online near Gunbarrel Center, he believes the commercial space will become particularly valuable.
"So we think this is going to be a fantastic project,´ said O'Dea, who declined to disclose an estimated project cost for Gunbarrel Center.
The Wolff Company owns the project. But the Boulder-based O'Connor Group, which first got the idea of the development rolling in the late 1990s, is still working with The Wolff Company on bringing the project along.
The project plans took on multiple iterations over the years as city officials, neighbors and developers hashed out the best use for the site. The O'Connor Group had the project entitled in a similar form in the mid-2000s. That was before Terry O'Connor, who started the company, died unexpectedly in 2005.
The Wolff Company's plan for Gunbarrel Center has a similar makeup to the O'Connor Group's original plans.
"That was important to us as far as working with the Wolffs,´ said Chris Rebich, Terry O'Connor's stepson and president of the O'Connor Group. "We were fortunate the Wolffs had a similar vision to what we had before.
"It's been in our family for a long time. Our whole family is very excited."
The Wolff Company began working with the O'Connor Group on the site a few years ago.
The Wolff Company – which finalized purchase of the land last year for $4.15 million according to Boulder County property records – obtained entitlements for the project in its current form in early 2012. But O'Dea said there was a lot of detail to be finalized with the city and designers in the meantime before construction could begin.
"It's simply a case of planning and making sure we do it right," O'Dea said.
He added: "We honestly believe Gunbarrel is the best part of Boulder. We've got the views. We've got unbelievable density of primary employers. … We think it's a total diamond in the rough."

HTC, one of the world's premier makers of smartphones, said recently that it would released its phones based on the Microsoft Windows Phone 7 operating system by the end of the year. Considering that HTC is usually among the first to adopt new platforms, such promise may indicate that other makers will launch next-gen Windows phones even slower.
"HTC views Microsoft as a strategic partner and Windows Phone 7 as a promising smart phone operating system platform; and we plan to rollout our first Windows Phone 7 based smart phone before the end of year," a statement by HTC reads.
Relatively late arrival of Windows Phone 7-based phones compared to the formal announcement in February, 2010, may be explained with the fact that Microsoft has reportedly imposed very specific and strict hardware requirements for Windows Phone 7 smartphones. Moreover, there are three types of form-factors for Windows Phone 7-series operating system-based mobile phones that will feature different hardware.
"We are talking about three form factors at this stage. There's going to be one available at launch, which is big touch screen, gigahertz processor, dedicated graphics chip. And only touch, no keyboard entry. Chassis two is going to be slide with a keyboard, so looking more like the Palm Treo, touch screen plus a QWERTY keyboard. Chassis three, I don't think we've released any data as about yet but they're the three in total we're going to have. Candybar? I'd say so," said a Microsoft representative from Australia.
More precise requirements for a high-end Windows Phone 7 phone include four-point multitouch, GPS, FM radio, a high-resolution 800x480 screen, accelerometer, and a 5MP camera, specific microprocessor and graphics chip requirements.
The reasons why Microsoft decided to enforce specific hardware requirements for Windows Phone 7 handsets are easy to understand. Microsoft does not control specifications of actual cell phones, but it is always blamed for poor experience, meanwhile, handsets from companies like Apple or Nokia are praised for excellent functionality and responsibility.

STEPHENVILLE, Texas — Irelis Ilarraza had 16 kills and three block solos Saturday and Tarleton State fended off a solid challenge from Eastern New Mexico to beat the Zias 19-25, 25-22, 25-19, 25-23 in Lone Star Conference volleyball play.
The TexAnns (21-8, 7-5) coming off a five-set loss to LSC-leading West Texas A&M on Thursday, had all it could handle against the Zias. Ilarraza's kill on match point ended a competitive fourth game in which neither team led by more than three points for the most part.
Junior outside hitter Kristen Back had 16 kills for the Zias (12-14, 4-8), while junior middle blocker Jessica King had 10 kills.
After giving up the first point of the opening set, ENMU took off on an 11-0 run and maintained the lead the rest of the way. King had a kill on set point after the TexAnns had gotten within 20-18 at one point.
ENMU led for much of the second set, building a 14-9 lead at one point. Tarleton came back to lead 20-19, but the Zias scored the next three points capped by kills from Russell and Durand before the TexAnns finished it out with the final five points.
ENMU led 4-0 in the third game, but Tarleton scored the next six points and the teams battled on even terms until Ilarraza's kill gave TSU the lead for good at 17-16 in the middle of a 7-0 run. The Zias then erased a 7-2 deficit to tie the fourth set and the team's stayed close until Tarleton pulled out the final three points to erase a 23-23 Zias lead.
ENMU plays its home finale at 7 p.m. Tuesday against New Mexico Highlands before closing the season with LSC matches at Angelo State on Thursday and Abilene Christian on Saturday.

I had to give LO a bottle at 7 am this morning. This is all all time low for me. My (adopted) babe nursed and squirmed acting hungry from 5 to 7, until I got up and fix the bottle before he woke up my 2 year old. We were in the hay field working in 32 degree heat yesterday, until late last night, needless to day, sweating like a pig. Anyone else experience low milk after excessive sweating???
Some days I get so frustrated, I've been trying for 3 months now, and everyday I'm trying to read him as to whether or not be needs a bottle. Some days we get away without a bottle, but most days he still needs one in the afternoon. I'm on fenugreek, domperidone, and eating and drinking all the recommended foods/drinks. I just get so frustrated some days. I've never had to even think of milk supple with my biological children, so this is really discouraging.

The Big Chill
January 8, 2014 —
At the moment, the weather is the main topic of conversation throughout the Upper Delaware River Valley region and with good reason—it's freakin' cold outside! Actually, "cold" doesn't begin to describe what we are experiencing, and both local and national news stories are doing their best to describe what we on the East Coast (and much of the country) are going through. Meteorologists have dubbed it a "polar vortex" (sounds like a sci-fi film) and "arctic blast" (isn't that a chewing gum?) but as far as I'm concerned… there are no words. To make matters worse, I decided to begin the New Year with resolutions of epic proportions: cutting down on caffeine, and smoking cessation. I swore that I wasn't going to share this tidbit with anyone, for a variety of reasons; but here I am, tearing my hair out, stuck in the house and screaming.

Protests continue in India demanding greater protection for women following the death of a gang rape victim, the suspects are charged with murder. NBCNews.com's Dara Brown reports.
NEW DELHI -- The father of a young Indian woman whose gang rape aboard a bus and subsequent death sparked public outrage has demanded that those responsible be hanged.
The Dec. 16 attack on the 23-year-old physiotherapy student and a male companion provoked furious protests demanding greater protection for women and fueled a nationwide debate about the prevalence of sexual crimes in India, where a rape is reported on average every 20 minutes.
The incident has forced India to confront the reality that sexually assaulted women are often blamed for the crime, forced to keep quiet and discouraged from going to authorities for fear of exposing their families to ridicule. Police often refuse to accept complaints from rape victims, and the rare prosecutions that reach courts can drag on for years.
The woman died on Saturday from massive internal injuries at a hospital in Singapore, where she had been taken for treatment.
Rape and murder charges were filed Thursday against five men accused in the gang rape. Police say they plan to push for the death penalty in the case.
A 23-year-old medical student who was raped on a bus in New Delhi has died, resulting in charges against six men. Even before she died, her savage attack triggered mass protests about treatment of women. NBC's Duncan Golestani reports.
A sixth suspect was listed as 17 and was expected to be tried in a juvenile court, where the maximum sentence would be three years in a reform facility.
The father of the woman said he backed the chorus of calls for those responsible to be executed.
"The whole country is demanding that these monsters be hanged. I am with them," the father told reporters in his home village of Mandwara Kalan in Uttar Pradesh state.
Protesters in India are calling for the execution of several men accused of raping a young woman on a moving bus. NBCNews.com's Dara Brown reports.
The woman has not been identified, nor have members of her family, in accordance with Indian law.
The woman was born in the village, but the family soon moved to the capital, New Delhi.
The father added that he was demanding a change in the law to allow for the execution of juveniles.

The studious, ambitious young woman was determined to improve life in her village, the father said.
"She said, 'Papa, the place of your birth is very backward. If I become a doctor I will first improve life in the village,'" the father said.
Days of protests in New Delhi and other cities followed the attack. Many of the protesters have been students, infuriated by what they see as the failure of the government to protect women.
Hundreds of women marched in New Delhi to mourn the death of a 23-year-old rape victim while protesters in Mumbai raided a bar serving a drink called "Rapist." NBCNews.com's Dara Brown reports.
The case against the five accused is due to be processed by a new, fast-track chamber set up in response to the crime.
Hanging is allowed only in the "rarest of rare" cases under Indian law. It was used for the first time in eight years in November when the lone surviving gunman from a 2008 militant attack on Mumbai, Mohammad Ajmal Kasab, was executed.
The pair were attacked for hours as the bus drove through the city, even passing through police checkpoints during the assault. They were eventually dumped naked on the side of the road. The woman was assaulted with an iron bar.
Police have said the accused have admitted to torturing and raping the student "to teach her a lesson."
She fought back and bit three of them, a police source told Reuters, and the bite marks are part of the evidence against them.
After the victim was thrown from the private bus, the driver tried to run her over, but she was pulled away by her companion, a senior police official told Reuters.
Police have prepared a dossier of evidence and charges against the accused believed to run to 1,000 pages, including testimony from the woman's friend who survived the attack on the bus and a man who said he was robbed by the same gang prior to the rape.
The woman's father told reporters he supported a proposal to name new legislation on sex crimes in honor of his daughter.
"She is the one who has been sacrificed," he said.
In India official statistics show that one woman is raped every 22 minutes, but the low conviction rate allows most rapists to go free. There have been daily protests in India following a brutal gang rape of a 23-year-old medical student. Women are demanding police do something about the violence they face. ITV's Victoria Macdonald reports.
The government has set up two panels headed by retired judges to recommend measures to ensure women's safety. One of the panels, due to make recommendations later this month, has received some 17,000 suggestions from the public, media reported.
The district court where the charges are due to be heard is expected to assign a defense lawyer for the five men after the bar association said none of its members were willing to represent them.
Lawyers in black robes protested outside the court on Thursday, demanding the judicial system act faster against rape.

Activists hold placards during a protest at Saket District Court in New Delhi on Thursday.
"We want the laws to be amended in such a stringent way that before a person even thinks of touching a girl, he should feel chills down his spine," protesting lawyer Suman Lata Katiyal said.
Attitudes by Indians toward rape are so entrenched that even politicians and opinion-makers have often suggested that women should not go out at night or wear clothes that might be seen as provocative.
Reuters and The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Break Out Your Brooms…
…as the Phillies completed a three-game sweep of the Braves last night! The Phils now have a six-game lead over the second-place Braves, and their magic number to clinch the division now stands at 4.🙂
Happiness abounds!
Hubby and I were fortunate enough to be at Monday night's game, thanks to our friends Carrie and Ed, who had two extra tickets available. We met up with them by the third-base gate and headed into the ballpark. Upon entering, were greeted by the sight of 20 statues of the Phanatic, painted in various themes by local artists, and currently being auctioned off for charity.
Carrie and I posed with one painted to look like the Liberty Bell.
Just in time for Halloween, it's "Phrankenstein's Mascot"! This one is among the four currently up for bids. Bidding ends later today, and apparently there are a lot of people with way more money than they know what to do with! The current high bid for this one is just under $10,000, and another is over $15,000 (!).
Millerrrrr Light, anyone? This friendly (?) beer vendorrr was working the stands prior to the start of the game. Aaargh!
Poor rookies! Pitcher Vance Worley makes his way to the bullpen with his Fancy Nancy backpack.
My daughter would have had a field day in the Braves' bullpen, with all these beauties to choose from!
Cole Hamels was in fine form, giving up just one run over eight innings of work.
Though he hit homers on Sunday and Tuesday, the "dirty hawt" Jayson Werth did not hit one this night.
Contrary to certain people's opinions (I'm talkin' to you, Patti), this is just not at attractive look.
Brandon Beachy, making his first major league start for the Braves, made several throws to first in an attempt to hold Shane Victorino close to the bag.
All was for naught, however, as Shane successfully stole second, and evaded the tag with this slide.
Wilson Valdez has been more than capable defensively while filling in for the injured Jimmy Rollins – he has a gun for an arm, and helped turn two double-plays for the Phillies. The Phils had a total of three DPs this night in support of Hamels.
Carlos Ruiz has been having a fine offensive year for the Phils, contributing an RBI double in this game.
Brad Lidge came on in the ninth to get the save. The rally towels were waving so furiously, all the little white lint particles flying around looked like snowflakes! Well, sort of. Anyway, Brad had a 1-2-3 inning, and the Phils won 3-1!
I was waving my towel with gusto as well, hence no photos of Brad.😦
After three tight games (3-1, 5-3, 1-0), the Phillies are off tonight with a much-deserved break. They'd best be resting up for the Mets, who come into town Friday for the last regular-season home games. Let's go Phillies!
(all photos by me) (well, not exactly, my husband took the one with me in it)

Nice job with the pics! I really like "the Miller Lite Guy" photo! And who IS Fancy Nancy? Besides an embarrassment to Vance, that is… lol! Had fun at the game with you guys! Just needed one thing… Patti doing her spider monkey. I'm disappointed. And I'm talking to you, Patti!!
Great pics as always, Sue. You're so good with the camera. Glad you got to a game and saw one with such a happy ending!
Think the Phanatic Statues are great ,wish I could afford to get one, that would really urk the neighbors having that on the front porch or turn him into a huge mailbox.. LOL…. great pics as always Sue, looks like you guys had a lot fun…. and now it's 11 straight, wow…
I'm still LOL'ing from the rookie bookbag pics… thanks for sharing those. As for your Phils, holy moly will they ever stop winning!?!?

The team has quit, most of the fans are leaving. I've been a Knick fan since 1966 and i find it hard to cheer these losers on. For the rest of the year i'm cheering on the Heat and OKC for the finals, as makes no sense to cheer our team
He's doing nothing. The way this team is coached, it just takes common sense to fire Woodson. I don't feel like listing off the crap that's gone on this season under his (or whoever's) reign.
I'm in to picket that dumbass right outside MSG. For the people who go to the games, don't go, or start using your voices to express how you feel, and I don't mean just booing. Winning won't solve things. Playing good a game, or even a few games, won't solve things. This already happened this season, and now they're terrible again. Let's not stop until Woodson and Dolan are out of there. Time to start chanting at this garbage all game long.
I want the Knicks to have all of this crap erased. No more headcases, no more egos, no more ****ty coaching, no more stupid trades. This is all too obvious, something might be going on that has been kept secret. There's no way to justify J.R.'s actions this season and the minutes he's been getting and starting. There's no way to justify not playing a healthy Metta and Beno while K-Mart, Barganing is out and Felton not playing well.
The Knicks play tonight. How do you think they'll play? Do you believe in Woodson? Do you believe in whatever new line-up he has this time?
This sucks.

This is already happening on March 19th! be there or be (Madison) square!
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
MINNEAPOLIS — A rally to protest Knicks owner James Dolan's handling of the sinking franchise is on tap for March 19 in front of the Garden before the team hosts the Pacers.
The organizers of the "KF4L Rally" are promoting the rally via social media which has its own Facebook page. The KF4L stands for "Knicks Fan for Life.''
Knicks fans Michael Brown, who has staged demonstrations in the past, Anthony Samaroo, a Chicago-based Knicks fan, and Mark Griffin are the rally's promoters.
In a statement, the organizers wrote the rally is being staged because of "Dolan's failure to allow knowledgeable basketball people the autonomy/power to make basketball related decisions…His insistence on overriding the opinions of his basketball people by bidding against himself in negotiations and overpaying in trades.''
The statement also took issue with "the rehiring of Steve Mills who has never been in the GM role before and presided over one of the most embarrassing eras in Knick history.''
It went on to add Mills "has yet to speak to the media or fans about the state of the team since he came back. The fans deserve explanations.''
In conclusion, the statement read: "We understand Dolan will not sell. We understand change may not come of this. We just want our voices heard. We want to remind Dolan and the NBA that our voices matter. We buy the tickets, the jerseys, the NBA League Pass subscriptions. We are frustrated. We are tired. We deserve better.''
Good Point .. lastnight Heat vs Rocket game was excitement from start to finish, pure athletic.
9-man rotation vs 9 man rotation .. small-ball vs big-ball
As for the team quiting, its best to mention the truth. Melo's teammates quit on him again.
This is not Denver, where each season Melo's teammates wait to the start of playoffs to quit on him.
This is the BIG-APPLE, where every Knicks player want to get their shine-on during the regular season, But cant bc ISO-Melo 48 minutes of isolation ball-hoggin.
Dolan could care less when he sells every seat he has even when the Knicks suck. Want to make an impact, let them play in front of 2000 people one night, could happen if the fans boycott a game.
I have tickets to that game. I definitely will be in attendance with an anti Dolan tee lol

By Bob Huber: PNT columnist
Some folks yearn for a balmy life of lust and leisure on the island of Tahiti. But here at the Trendy Travel Bureau we've been studying this urge and have second thoughts about promoting the South Seas as a worthwhile tourist trap.
For instance, Tahitians think the stomach is the center of romance, not the heart. Dwell on that the next time you hum your favorite love song:
• "Peg o' My Stomach"
• "My Stomach Belongs to Daddy"
• "Zing Went the Strings of My Stomach"
• "The Sweet Stomach of Sigma Chi"
• "My Stomach Stood Still"
• "Be Still My Stomach"
• "You Belong to My Stomach"
• "You Broke My Stomach"
• "I Left My Stomach in San Francisco"
• "Let Me Call You Sweet Stomach"
Well, we could go on and on, but you get our drift.
So let's look at other pitfalls that persist in the South Pacific. Our research found giant mosquitoes on Tahiti — they're national birds hunted with tennis rackets in the evening hours — and woolly mammoth cockroaches and termites with Bowflex bodies.
"Cock-a-roaches," as they're called on Tahiti, are so big they beep when they back up. And termites — entire homes have been known to be swallowed up after dark.
And girls on Tahiti — well, let's get down to the nitty gritty. They aren't the tawny beauties you've seen in movies. In fact, most girls there have bad teeth and the breath that goes with it, no noses, and an absence of underarm protection.
They also go barefoot their entire lives, so by the time they reach spawning age, their feet are dyed black from local sands of the same color, and they look like they're wearing No.12 logging boots.
But the most objectionable thing about Tahiti is that France owns it, and you know where that can lead — Apache dancers, the Foreign Legion, the Can Can, foreign menus you can't read, snotty waiters, and old Charles Boyer movies.
And finally, to top it off, Hollywood pays Tahiti a visit every few years to film yet another "Mutiny on the Bounty" starring the latest spike-haired Oscar winner, and when that happens, the local brewery has to put on extra shifts.
Speaking of breweries, once in a while a war ship from some other country drops anchor at Tahiti, skyrocketing the cost of Hawaiian shirts, police uniforms, and tetanus shots out of sight. If two ships from different countries drop anchor at the same time — naked chaos!
And speaking of naked, a French artist named Gauguin once lived in Tahiti and made a good living painting portraits of fat naked ladies. Some of his fat naked heirs still live on the island and sell authentic autographed Gauguin sketches of fat naked ladies, some of which are quite good imitations (the sketches, not the ladies.)
A true story points up some other hidden land mines found on Tahiti. A very social French lady heard that a famous American author was arriving by ship, and she wanted to be the first to welcome him and count coup on all her high-toned friends.
So she sent her chauffeur, who spoke only French, to welcome the writer and bring him home for dinner. Soon the famous author was ushered into the very social lady's parlor where he was offered some tea.
To quickly wrap up this shaggy dog story, the author asked for something stronger, because he thought he was in a Tahiti house of ill repute. Turns out he hadn't understood a word the chauffeur said nor did he understand the house madam.
So with drink in hand, he demanded to see the local soiled dove crop for that year and wanted to know the exchange rate of American dollars for French francs.
Needless to say, the very social lady got her feathers ruffled, but the author's status in Tahiti's upper crust circles was elevated a couple notches. That's why it's a good idea to avoid Tahiti if you plan to escape your humdrum life. Just ask Capt. Blye.

No Experience Required
For the Matt Drudges, Satanic She-Worms and Jabba the Huts of the world, President Obama's controversial decision to seat an inexperienced left-leanin' lawyer to the world's highest court is not going too well. Indeed, dear readers, the rip-roarin' has already commenced with character-bashing slander at the ready: "she has no experience!"… "she's part of the Chicago machine!"… "She's ugly! You sure that ain't Gary Dell'abate!?!"
I am not sure that she is not Gary Dell'abate.
But I will try to pretend that I didn't ever think about that.
She has no experience. So what? Does she have what it takes? Does she have the balls to — wait, never mind.
As is the case with baseball, experience doesn't always guarantee success.
Mike Leake never pitched a game in the minors and yet he has a record of 3-0 right now, one of those wins coming against the sCrUBS (which nets him extra points 'cuz I say so).
Don Denkinger never had any experience being completely retarded for one single World Series play yet he managed to get the job done in 1985.
And let me remind you of a fella who didn't have any managerial experience whatsoever: a man, who as a player achieved a lifetime batting average of .219 with 32 homers and 112 RBI. That man's name is A.J. Hinch and that man manages the Arizona Diamondbacks and the Arizona Diamonbacks are… um… the D'backs are…
Pay no attention.
We're all in this US American mess together.
I hope.
Hate me 'cuz it's trendy, just don't hate me 'cuz I'm right.

This is all part of repaying the favors to helped get him elected. That's the way it always works.
It's so…so..Roman.
They don't call it the Chicago Political Machine for nothin'…
Leake came in and did a number on Houston as well which I'm sure didn't hurt your feelings any.😉 Thanks for acknowledging my birthday on FB, I wouldn't have remembered otherwise. I was doing the math on my calculator so I'd know how old I was. You take 2010 and then you subtract 1966. That's 44. That's how you do it when you're over 40.
Austin — Dude, that's hilarious. I'm not to the subtracting part yet, but I gotta say, 31 isn't any different from 30… that I can tell.
Holy crap 31!!! geeeez, I have son that's whinning about bein 30 in a week or two and one that just enjoyed his 28th… oh to be young again…. young at heart thats the main thing…
Mike Leake is an exception to the rule, one of those unwritten baseball rules, which noone knows about cause it hasn't been written yet, it's like those unwritten political rules… they can do anything till year 4 when they do things for votes….
Phillies Outside
Less like Gary Dell'abate and more like Paul Blart Mall Cop. Save us from the skateboarding terroists Ms. Kagan!
Peter — Ah, thanks for considering my age in the "youthful" camp.
Jane — Nah, just tryin' to avoid cliches… that's all. You're safe🙂
Umm, who exactly IS Gary Dell'abate? Sorry, I admit that I am a complete political dimwith – I hope that doesn't make me a She-Worm.
Dimwit! I meant to type "dimwit", not "dimwith" (the opposite of "dimwithout").

Some residents in Coeur d'Alene have filed a lawsuit to prevent the construction of a 14-story luxury apartment building.
The Coeur d'Alene press reports the lawsuit filed Wednesday by the Coeur d'Alene North Home Owners View Preservation names the city and project developer One Lakeside.
The group contends the $20 million building infringes on the residents' private property rights and that the city didn't do enough to protect those rights when it approved the project.
Deputy City Attorney Warren Wilson says the group is applying an argument about taking private property, but the apartment project is a private property owner doing what he wants with his own land.
Developer Greg Hills in previous comments has said the company is prepared to fight lawsuits.

Hi everyone,
Warning: Wall of text. I need to rant a little and to seek some support...
Bfing has been tough for me from day 1 and I have faced many challenges along the way. I have had low milk supply from the very start due to poor latch during the first week when my milk came in. Baby was losing weight and my midwife advised that I start supplementing. I hired an LC who suggested a rigid nursing/pumping schedule to increase supply, and to take all supplements (fenugreek, blessed thistle) and domperidone to increase milk supply, and finally after 6 weeks of this tiresome schedule of nurse/pump 8-10 times per day, I was finally able to exclusively breastfeed. I was totally ecstatic feeling that my hard work has finally paid off!! I began to slowly wean off the domperidone and my supply stayed up. Baby was gaining weight really well too. Unfortunately, his latch stayed shallow despite consulting an LLL leader, 2 LCs, and my continual efforts to change it. 3 weeks of EBF and I had developed an abscess in my R breast (high producer) the size of a kiwi and after the I&D and 11 days of IV therapy, the incision finally closed. By that time however, my supply had dropped by 75% and since I am quite petite in size, the abscess affected more than 50% of my breast. Usually at this point, I would try to exclusively breastfeed on my L breast, but unfortunately, not enough glandular tissue has matured in my L breast and less than half the breast is producing milk (I know this because when baby was starting to skip a night feeding and I was engorged, only the inner side of my L breast was firm with milk while everywhere else stayed soft).
After the I&D, I was only able to pump 20mls from each breast, which is hardly enough to feed a 3 month old baby. Despite the fact that I did not produce a whole lot of milk, I have since then experienced at least 3 plugged ducts, a bleb, and a plugged nipple pore due to a calcified bit. Anyway, I was supplementing by bottle for the next 2.5 months, which surprisingly, baby was willing to first take both my breasts (and emptying them) and then take the bottle afterwards. Even though I was not able to EBF, our BFing arrangement was still wonderful. I was able to nurse, baby gained comfort, and supplementing was done afterwards. He would stay at least 15-20 mins per breast, sucking away peacefully.
October rolled around and during a Thanksgiving dinner, my DS contracted Hand Foot Mouth disease from one of the children that attended. Poor DS, 5 months old and couldn't suck due to the blisters in his mouth. First, he refused the breast for a couple of days, and then stopped taking both breast and bottle entirely due to the sores in his mouth and around his lips. I too contracted the disease and I was affected quite badly!! (I actually had all the symptoms and its quite rare in adults!) I was pumping still to maintain supply. It was hard work pumping while having blisters all over my hands, feet, and sores in my throat, running a fever, and trying to take care of a sick baby who couldn't even suck for comfort. After a week, DS has recovered and started to take the bottle and breast. However, it appears his attitude towards nursing has changed. 3 weeks later, he no longer wants the breast anymore and only wants the bottle. I believe it is due to the flow preference. I noticed I do not let down quite as fast anymore to keep baby on the breast. Even with my low supply prior to the illness, I was able to let down within seconds of baby sucking. Now, it takes at least a minute and sometimes even longer...
So I am now pumping during the day to continue providing EBM. At first, it was an emotional turnmoil for me to discover that baby does not want my breast anymore after all the challenges that we've been through. Baby has come to only nurse at night before bed, and in the middle of the night when he wakes up.
Looking back, I know I have made mistakes along the way--supplementing with the bottle and giving him a pacifier (only at nap/bed time)... but either way, it is what it is right now.
DS is currently 6 months old and solids have been introduced. He's highly distractible. I have tried Dr. Smilie's (sp?) method of supplementing first to quench baby's thirst so baby will have more patience in sucking at the breast, but I feel overwhelmed as I will need to, through trial and error, figure out how much supplementation to provide at the start for baby to finish at the breast, not to mention the fact that each nursing during the day will be different as our supply also fluctuates. Mild success is an overstatement. This has been going on for 3 weeks and the situation seems to have worsened. He has now stopped nursing for his middle-of-the-night feeding as well and I find myself pumping to relieve myself at 5am in the morning. This is tough. I don't know how much longer I can keep this up, not to mention breasts never empty well with pumping.
For DS, weaning doesn't seem to be too bad. I'm on maternity leave and spend a lot of time with him so it doesn't appear he's needing the breast for comfort. He's also falling asleep on his own by watching his mobile and listening to soft music (with a pacifier though). He's taking his formula fine and doesn't have a preference for BM. I'm not sure I'm up for trying an SNS (both emotionally and financially). My husband thinks that if bfing is not working for DS and I, that I should wean as bfing to 6 months has already provided a lot of benefits to DS. My mom thinks I should wean due to my poor track record of getting plugged ducts (she's constantly worried that I'll develop another abscess). Everyone else keeps telling me that formula fed isn't *that bad*. It now feels like the need for nursing is for my emotional sake. I understand there are a lot of benefits of BM, and there are probably a few more things to try (continue Dr. Smilie's method, SNS, feeding by sippy cup instead of bottle, taking away pacifier--this one is gonna be hard). But I'm not sure if I'm up for the challenge at this point. I guess I'm just looking for some assurance that weaning is OK or that this downward spiral will one day miraculously get better.
Thank you for reading my long story. I usually try and work things out myself, but after all that has happened, this is just too overwhelming for me. Your responses are much appreciated!

Holiday Spirit Relieves QE Fatigue
Some key levels were penetrated to the upside on Monday setting the stage for the Thanksgiving week rally, which is building a base for a potential Santa Claus rally even with continued negative weekly chart profiles for the major equity averages. Some of the weekly chart profiles could shift to neutral as Santa and his sleigh prepare to leave the North Pole a month from now.
On Monday, I wrote, Stocks Set to Bungee from Fiscal Cliff where I described the potential key reversal for the Russell 2000, which was confirmed at Wednesday's close. I also tracked the upward trend for the S&P 500 above my annual pivot at 1363.2.
On Tuesday, I wrote, Since QE3, Treasuries Outperformed Stocks and Commodities and explained that it could be time to shift from a "risk off" investment strategy to a "risk on" "buy and trade." I showed how U.S. Treasuries should be a component of a long-term investment Strategy if you do not intend to "buy and hold."
On Wednesday, I wrote, Santa Claus Rally Eyed for Online Leaders Apple, Amazon and Google explaining why these stocks have the ability to lead a Santa Claus rally. Investors following my "buy and trade" strategies could have captured gains in these leading MOJO stocks.
Analysis and Key Levels for the U.S. Capital MarketsYield on the 10-Year Treasury Note (1.685%): The weekly chart is on the cusp of favoring either a "risk off" long or a "risk on" buy as the yield rests on top of its five-week modified moving average at 1.671%. The most likely trade is between my semiannual value level at 1.853% and my monthly risky level at 1.452%.
Comex Gold ($1729.0): The weekly chart shows gold above its five-week MMA at $1718.7 with declining momentum. This favors a trading range between my semiannual pivot at $1702.5 and quarterly risky levels at $1844.9 and $1881.4. My semiannual, monthly and annual value levels are $1643.3, $1639.8 and $1575.8.
Nymex Crude Oil ($87.63): The weekly chart for crude oil stays negative on a close Friday below the five-week MMA at $88.58. The 200-week simple moving average is a major support at $83.32 with my monthly value level at $76.96, and my annual and quarterly risky levels are $103.58 and $107.31.
Euro vs. the Dollar (1.2822): The weekly chart shifts to neutral from negative on a close Friday above the five-week MMA at 1.2812. My monthly value level lags at 1.2289 with semiannual and quarterly risky levels at 1.2917 and 1.3048.

'ITwas the Night Before Opening Day
'Twas the night before Opening Day, when all through the park
not a creature was stirring, not even a lark
The bats were hung by the helmets with care,
In hopes that the Dodgers soon would be there
The fans were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of a parade danced in their heads;
While Lorena had tweeted that she was loading the MLB At Bat App
I settled down to take a short nap
When out on the field there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter.
Away to Petco Park we flew like a flash,
Drove up I-5 almost near crashed.
The MLB Bloggers were blogging like there was no tomorrow
While Padre fans drank Coronas; drowning their sorrows,
When, my wondering eyes saw the mound and the bases
It was Clayton Kershaw, the CY Young of 2011 aces,
With a smooth young coach acting so calmly
I knew in a moment it must have been Mattingly.
More rapid than the Eagles his courses they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name;
"Now Kemp! now, Ethier! now, Dee Gordon and Loney!
On, Javy, on Jansen! and hopefully Billingsley!
Can't wait till Thursday; Opening Day is the reason
"Good luck to my Dodgers and to the fans a great-season."

Thanks. Brian! It will be colder by game time tonight. Our poor Kershaw was sick but he gave us some innings. At one point in the dugout it looked like he was going to puke.
Thanks! Yeah, Kershaw does remind me of Bulldog Hershiser. A guy in my row had a Hershiser jersey with the 1988 patch!
Good luck on your opener.
I'm just glad the Dodgers have Kershaw. I don't think he really cares about the Cy Young to be hoenst. I don't know Kershaw personally, but he's a pretty laid back guy on camera and doesn't seem to envision himself without an amount of humility. The Dodgers see that and know that if he stays healthy, that kind of attitude leads to consistency.I'm willing to bet he'd trade two Cy Youngs for better defense and a couple more solid bullpen arms for the next two years.1 day of pride can't compete with 162 days and nights on the road and back. Awards are nice, but winning day in and day out is much more pleasurable and the feeling is mutual for the whole community.
Emma, I got very excited when I saw you on TV both Saturday and Sunday. You brought our boys good luck. I especially liked the big blue floppy hat you wore on Sunday.
Mattingly begged him not to start but Kershaw insisted. I heard he threw up after the third inning when he had to come out. Poor thing but he is a gamer.
Long time no hear from you. I got excited being at the game and I am excited for tomorrow. Not sure if I can sleep. LOL on the hat. I had forgotten my hat when I went to Spring Training for St Patrick weekend so I bought that one in AZ
