There are a few different players one can point to when placing blame regarding the Phillies 8-5 loss to New York. One however, sticks out like a very sore thumb.
Cole Hamels has struggled all season. Earlier in the year, after a less than stellar performance against the Marlins, mid-season, Hamels' proclaimed, and I paraphrase, I will start to turn it on once the games become more important. So far this postseason, he has remained mediocre at his best and just plain bad at his worst. Perhaps the lights of the NLDS and the NLCS just weren't bright enough for "Hollywood" to shine.
In Hamels biggest, most important game yet, Hamels again failed to dazzle. Lasting just 4.1 innings, Hamels allowed five runs on five hits. Hamels started the game looking good, allowing just one base-runner in the first three innings. Early on it appeared as if Cole had finally found a stage big enough to perform, however, after a walk to Mark Teixeira, Alex Rodriguez took Hamels deep to right field, homering off the camera in a bomb that required instant replay to determine.
The Phillies offense got to Andy Pettitte early, scoring three in the second. Jayson Werth started the scoring with a solo shot to left. It was the third straight game in which the Phillies scored first. A Pedro Feliz double, a Carlos Ruiz walk, and a Cole Hamels bunt single and the Phillies had bases loaded with one out. Jimmy Rollins drew the walk to score Feliz and Victorino sacrificed to score Ruiz. After two innings, things looked bright as the Phillies were up three.
Aside from another solo blast from Werth and a late blast by Ruiz, the Phillies line-up lay dormant for the rest of the evening. More importantly, the Phillies 3-4 and 6 hitters (all lefties) went 0 for 12 with seven strike outs. Ryan Howard was the biggest culprit with three total. He is now batting .154 in the World Series after a torrid postseason.
Let's not forget the bullpen which failed to keep the game within reach after Hamels left. Allowing dingers to both Nick Swisher and Hideki Matsui, they coughed up three runs in 4.2 innings of work.
In all, it was a collectively bad effort with little exception. It will gave the Phillies just their second loss at home in the playoffs over the past two seasons.
The Phillies will look to even the series tomorrow when they square off in Game Four. Game time is set for 8:20 pm and Joe Blanton will take the mound for the Phillies. A loss and the Phillies will find themselves with their backs placed squarely against the wall. C.C. Sabathia goes for the Yankees.

How come no one talks about the manager. Evetryone watvching the game saw Hamel wilt in the 5th inning just has he had in LA. It doesn't take a genius to see he can only go 4 innings. This is the World Series – why wasn't he yanked immediately. The fans booed the manager stayed with his starter. Need t a replacement!
I am not on line during games to comment. I will share with everyone my current facebook status. I am not being negative. I still feel the phils have a good chance to win this series.
My status:
Enough already. I have seen Cole Chambles suck for an entire season. Now he has sucked and been the worst pitcher on the team for the entire post season. I have had enough. How many playoff games can you hand over because a pitcher pitched welll 12 months ago? Cole went hollywood. He SUCKS. Shut him down please.
I was hoping to eat crow today, but I didnt. I said after game 2, "Cole is pitching, Yankees take the series lead". 🙁 Oh well. Can they bounce back? I know they CAN, but WILL they? Mith Williams even said "Cole Hamels would not start for him in the World Series". How many starts has he had? And he has not pitched beyond the 6th inning in any start. He was GREAT…LAST season. Charlie has done a wonderful job overall with this team, but sometimes you have to let loyalty go and say Sorry Cole, you are not with it this season. I sure wish Cole could go back to his 2008 Post season splender, but he hasnt. we are down 2-1 in the series, BUT we still have 2 games left IN Philly. The Phillies CAN without a doubt take the next 2 games at home, and send the series BACK to NY leading the series 3-2. BUT will they? It appears PORTIONS of the team (Howard and the Pitching) is going back to the way they were playing when they got swept by the Pirates and the Astros, however, other members of the team are still charging now. Werth is starting to hit again, and after the 2nd home run, I LOVED his reaction, and trying to get the team into and pumped up, it just didnt happen. I am hoping Chooch with the Homer in the 9th was a spark regardless of the loss.
Color me slightly optimistic with Heavy B and Cliff Lee (probably our best two starters) going on Sunday and Monday. But usually Game 3 is pivotal, and I can't get too excited again unless the Phillies show us that they're ready to turn this series around.
I suck. sorry all but I love the musical group "Blondi" because I lurve the 80's. That's why I am so bitter, yet quick with my ignorant, Yankee loving tongue. I love Blondi so much I put it in my e-mail address. I'm sorry I have offended everyone… like I said I suck and hopefully, the man of my dreams, possible Frillies fan will come to my rescue and be my very gay prince charming.
Obviously tonights game is a must.
This team hasnt been trailing in a series since the rockies series in 07. Put up or shut up. I like using Joe and letting Lee go monday. I like the phils chances vs CC. Beat him the last 2 post season times they have faced him. Its a must now. Now we finally see the true charachter. In a way I am happy to see us behind the 8 ball.
Hamels sucks
Hillbilly has won a world series and is trying for another. Way to respect him. Bring on CC. Believe the media hype.
I would have started Ben Francisco in this game instead of Ibanez in left field. Being a right handed hitter, Francisco would have gotten a better look at the pitches from lefty Pettite. As it was, Ibanez went 0 for 4 with 2 Ks. Just to try something different to maybe create more offense against Pettite.
Hamels does not have what it takes at this time to win. If series goes 7 games, it looks like it will be Lee on short rest. Somebody other than Lee is going to have to beat the Yanks.
Andrew, dont even both commenting on what george55 says. I see his name and I just skip over the post, because he can look at a 5 run win (game 1) and STILL find everything wrong with this team. The Phillies HAVE the advantage right now. If the Phillies lost tomorrow by not hitting CC on 3 days rest when they know they can kill him with only 3 days rest (like last season) the we are in a world of hurt, but as of right now, the Phillies still have the advantage. Do I think the Phillies will win the next two? Not so sure, but I lost complete faith at the end of the regular season, then all of sudden, BAM. I hope the "all of a sudden" will happen again. I havent lost all faith, but I am a little skeptical honestly.
Regarding blanton pitching tomorrow, isn't it this simple – u have to win 3 of 4 now against the yanks – and 2 of them are likely to be in new york – and they are likely to pitch cc, burnett, and pettite – the phil's choices r blanton, lee, martinez, hamels OR lee, blanton, martinez, lee – in the first alterantive u have almost no chance of winning 3 of 4 – u may win 1 or 2 of 4 but no way 3 of 4!! – in the second alternative u might get lucky riding lee, win both of his games, and win 1 of the blanton or martinez games to take the series – who disagrees and sees it otherwise?? – i think this is about as easy a managerial choice/decision as there is – theres no games after the series so setting up to win 2 games at best is just not a choice!! – start an email campaign now if u want the phillies to have a chance to win the series!!!!! HELP!!!! – i have tickets but im not going if they pitch Blanton!! – and, by the way, i love blanton and charlie but………..
Not to mention Mike B., the Righties in the line-up had a pretty good game overall against the Lefty. Our Lefties sucked it up.
Blanton has been FAR better than Hamels all season. You basically do NOT start Hamels again, PERIOD, HOWEVER, Cliff Lee is completely UNTOUCHABLE when he has full rest, but you are suggesting short rest followed by short rest. Considering how he has been this season on short rest, I think thats a bad idea.
when has lee pitched on short rest?? – hes been lights out all playoffs – best ever!!!!!!! – u have to ride him – to get all the way here and do otherwiase when theres such a big drop off and u need 3 of 4 is insanity – someone should be fired if they cant explain this!!!!!!!!!!
keng; the second alternative would be the way to go but I liked Lee going tomorrow night in the 4th game on 4 days rest and then pitch Blanton or Happ on Monday in the 5th game. Pedro would go in a possible 6th game in New York with Lee going in a possible 7th game next Thursday with 4 days rest. Obviously, the big decision would be whether to throw Blanton or Happ in the 5th game. As it is, Manuel chose Blanton for tomorrow night and Happ pitched in this last game. Must be going with the experience thing in originally choosing Blanton for tomorrow and delegating Happ to the bullpen which is short of lefties.
It's good to be King again!
BTW…beating the Tampa Bay Rays does not count.
Welcome to Major League Baseball.
As You know… I am king of anal play. I let guys touch my anus regularly. Ha it's good to be the king of hiney loving.
You people are all retarded. CC on short rest is gonna be easier to hit, and Blanton was good against Tampa last year in the World Series. Keep in mind, assuming we have an even chance at game 4, and are almost certain to win game 5 cliff lee vs short rest burnett, that gives us game 6 against an aging andy pettite on short rest vs pedro on extra rest, and then game 7 against a CC Sabathia who will be on short rest again, against probably Happ, with Lee available from the Bullpen in an emergency.
Everyone here seems to have forgotten that we've faced CC on short rest before, and the result wasn't a shutout. Oh, and if you need another reason not to despair, Mariano should be getting tired. He's thrown 14.1 innings in October, more than he threw in any month this year by a few, and as invincible as he has always been, we have a lineup that will make things happen if he makes any mistakes.
Charlie won us a world series, and I trust him more than george 55 the lunatic.
He hasnt pitched in short rest this post season. The regular season he had, and he got hit pretty good. And @ BigTimeFrillyFan, the series is 2-1, its not over, the next to games are in Philly. So if beating the Rays doesnt count, what did that make the Yankees last year when they didnt even make the playoffs? Since the Rays are in the same division, that means the Yankees really sucked last season prior to trying to BUY the Championship.
Tampa Bay is not the New York Yankees and the Phils offense is going to have to get going too along with hopefully good pitching in order to be able to beat this Yankee team.
the yankees aren't the rays because they buy their player…all the guys there are there because they got money they couldn't turn down…a-rod said awhile back he wanted to play for the mets,tex wanted to play for baltimore and cc wanted to play on the west coast…enjoy buying your championships and not earning em like most teams.
George55 you have to be the bigggest moron!! Did you fail to notice that when Hamels was pulled the score was 5-3. Happ, Myers, and Durbin didn't look to great either. Did we watch the same game. Did you fail to notice that we didn't get any producton from Shane, Chase, Ryan, and Raul. Your the fan Philly doesn't need!! Just a dumb bitch who thinks he know more than the people who have spent there lives in baseball. Stick to selling burgers and fries because you don't know shit!!
now as for the phillies,they've hit one of their slumps and everyone has jumped on board…ryan howard is a strikeout machine this world series,chase utley hasn't done anything except the 2 home runs and the guys that get it all started rollins and victorino aren't getting on base…i've been noticing their swing for the long ball alot again,the reason they got to the world series again is because they weren't getting base hits with risp…their gonna have to get back to that and quite swing for home runs in every at bat.
The way I see it if the offense can turn it around and provide Blanton with run support then we can easily tie up the series. Then we can go with Lee against Burnett, which I believe he will win. Then Pedro against Petite, which I strongly believe Pedro can win . If this goes to game 7 we could be in trouble. Cole sucks on the road and after tonight I don't think I would trust him with a Championship. Happ is a good option but with the way are bullpen has performed…..
*were instead of weren't.
Sorry to be a pessimist right now, but if we get to game 7 and Charlie starts Hamels…Congratulations to the Yankmees for buying your championship. I agree with fightinphils, I do NOT trust Hamels this season. Last season, yes, but that was LAST season. Maybe he will start Hamels, and MAYBE Hamels shows up, but his postseason numbers are against him. I am just hoping for a game 7 PERIOD. It depends on if the Phillies can put this game behind them.
Let me point out something: In EVERY start that Hamels starts off well, he's using just his fastball and his changeup. The second he starts going heavy with that balloon he calls a Curve Ball that every body and their mother can hit, he gets HAMMERED. That's not just tonight, that's not just this season, that's his ENTIRE CAREER UP TO THIS POINT.
The bull pen didn't look great but that's 10 days of rust to shake off. Now that they got there feet wet hopefully they'll keep the ball down…no more of these up and away pitches. If Hamels pitches game seven….I don't want to think about it….7 HRs, !4 ER in about 20 innings is nothing short of abysmal. The offense didn't capitalize off of Petite but did put up 5 runs….the 3 run lead was more than enough for last years WS MVP to get us thru at least 5 innings with the lead. I mean I thought okay with 3 bad starts he's due for a good one….Ruiz also needs to take some heat….3 consecutive curve balls to Swisher…if he didn't call for them he should have never let Hamels call for them…and what' with the first pich curveball to petite…Was the rationale behind that. Were they trying to get the top of the order to think curveballs and then suprise them with FBs. Jeez, he did throw a few nice ones but pick your places. I am still baffled by this….You have a runner in scoring position, strike out Caberra, and decide to get cute with a curve ball to a pitche who probably would struggle to the FBs cages at the batting cage . How stupid do you have to be to do this
I agree with you j reed. The first pitch curve ball pitch to Pettite was the top bonehead pitch of the year for Hamels.
mike B. – i'd also like to know where Ruiz was in all this. 3 curveballs in a row to Swisher, WTF? Just like the three change-ups in a row to Manny one of which he deposited in stands.
The best thing about a Philly series win is that, as the dirtbag fans have already shown after the NLCS, they'll react to the unfamiliarity of success with more disorderly conduct and, maybe this time they'll burn the cessppol known as Philadelphia to the ground. I must say that living in NY is so much more fabulous than Philly. I mean the corn hole that I constantly enjoy in greenwhich village is soooo much better than what I get in the gayborhood.
In the FOX NEWSROOM Yankees fan John Bolaris is happy and celebrating and then he gets on the air and acts like a Phillies fan – makes you wanna puke.
Nice comments (sarc)
Look, I think Hamels should have been pulled earlier but to disparage Manuel is flat out wrong. 3 division titles, 2 pennants and a WS is a pretty good record.
As for the Yankees fans finding their way here, I just have this to say – your scum. Scum, scum, scum. The fact is that your precious team should win the WS every single year given their bloated payroll. The fact that they do not marks them as a failure in my book.
This series is not over – mark my words. Howard and Utley will start hitting again.
Clearly, the curve balls were a mistake especially to Pettite. That made no sense. Hamels needs to shake that pitch off.
Remember J-Roll's prediction: Phillies win 5 but if we're nice, we'll make it go 6. The Phillies are obviously being nice, so Phillies win in 6
The curveballs were definitely stupid. The first was good, but two of the next three were hangers, particularly the one to Petitte. A real hitter would have destroyed that one, not just flared it to center.
Ruiz has to take some of the blame for this particular Hamels loss. He should have stuck with what was working. I haven't seen many of Hamels' other blow-ups, but if the strategy has been to suddenly start relying on his worst pitch, it needs to change. Ruiz and Hamels both need to rethink this in their pre-game meetings.
You can't fault Hamels for the fourth inning. That was strike three to Texiera, and the cheapest home run I've ever seen. It may not have even cleared the wall had not some media idiot put his camera in the way. It was a homer on a ground-rule technicality.
That said, if there is a game seven, I'd prefer not to see Hamels. When one has an off-year, one generally loses even the well-pitched games.
One last note: Yankees fans complain about the lack of class of Phils fans. They always manage to do it in a remarkably tasteless, classless, ill-informed manner, though. They are the pot calling the kettle black, as the saying goes. I ignore them, and hope others do the same.
No offense but I have no problem with the Yankees buying their championships and if you all were Yankees fans you wouldn't either. The problem is not the Yankees, its the MLB system and lack of salary cap. The Yanks spend all the money in the world because they have it. If the Phillies were in that situation I would want the Phillies to do it as well. Being as that the Phillies are not in the same situation as the Yankees then it seems unfair, and maybe it is. But it is not wrong. It is what MLB allows for. Blame Bud the brainless.
Secondly, C.C does not impress me and I think him going on short rest means he may be limited but I also don't see how this team is going to beat him three times in this series. Which, unless we win the next three, we are going to have to do. I still feel like we need to start Lee today to get momentum back on our side but that's just me. Regardless of the pitcher though, we need to score some runs. We scored 6 runs the last 2 games, 3 came off solo jobs and one a bases loaded walk, that means we manufactured 2 runs in the last 2 games. 3 if you count the walk, which I do. That is pretty poor and won't help anyone on the mound. Blanton, Lee, whoever.
I really hope they put a stop to the bleeding tonight, because I can't handle another display like what we saw last night.
I agree. The Yanks didn't steal their money. They earned it fair and square as far as I know. While we'll never out spend them, the Phillies do a have a silent, minority owner with boat loads of cash. More than the Yankees in fact. So technically we could out spend them if the "silient" one ever decided he wanted to buy the team.
I was mad yesterday but today is a new day. Win today and it's a whole new ball game.
Game 2 was they key. It was not a "bonus" game. You can't blow chances against this team. I know the O was quiet. but if Charlie brings in a lefty to face Matsui and uses Chan Ho to start the 7th, chances are very likely we avoid M. Rivera for 2 inngs. Charlie is getting way out managed and it's embrassing.
Hey guys…stop crying about the MLB…the homer AKA double…this series is far from over …ya just can't pitch Hamels anymore…lets just say he would'nt get away with saying what he did after the game in NY….I still think it goes 7 games…its gonna be one of the best series ever….and we'll get to witness it…who knows you guy might get the calls tonight…as for paying for a world series….the guys still have to play/and win. I always said on here Hamels is over rated….as for Howard the lay off hurt him..I think a few in the "media" said last night as well …if Lee is the stud for you guys WHY CAN"T HE GO ON 3 DAYS REST??? in what I call "a gotta win situation" a little shy of "must" win….we'll see
Hamels should be in the pen the rest of the series. I think he would do better there because he dominates the first time through a lineup. It is the 2nd and 3rd time around that he gets hit.
Tonight is not an automatic win for the Yankees. CC vs Blanton on normal rest is an advantage to the Yankees but CC on 3 days rest is not as much of an advantage. We know our fans can get to him. If the Phils are patient and make him throw pitches, he won't last deep into the game and the Phils have shown they can hit their pen. Big Joe needs to keep the ball down in the zone and limit the damage. Pull out a win and they have a fully rested Lee for game 5.
It's complete and utter BS that the Fox camera was hanging out into the field of play. I agree with Mike Schmidt from the game thread, there's NO WAY the call should have been overturned, but going into this series I KNEW the Yankees would win at least one game on a controversial call that went their way. Everyone's focusing on Cole, but the fact is the umps handed the Yankees their first 2 runs, who knows what would have happened if the Yanks had to actually EARN those runs?
Why do philly fans always insist they can "get to players"? I love the spirit but give me a break, these are professional athletes. Sure, once in a blue moon someone may get rattled but the majority of the time it has little to no effect. So please stop bragging about, sit down and face the reality that you are significantly less important than you seem to realize.
They got to CC last year without a doubt.
Or maybe it was the 5 starts in a row on 3 days rest.
nah, the crowd got to him… Period. The million pitch ab which ended in a walk to Myers proved that. He later admitted to Charlie that he wasn't tried, he just tried fool the Phils w/change-ups then high fastballs and it back fired. We were up a game in that spot last year. Now we're down 2-1. This is the Yanks not the Brew-Crew. This also ain't the NLDS. The crowd will be on edge early on because we know what going down 3-1 means. Same way the Yankee crowd was on each early in Game 2. The Phils will have to beat C.C. tonite. The crowd will be no factor until later on in the game if the Phillies have an unforseeable 3 run+ lead.
Waaaah.. they outspend us…. waaaah… the umps make calls for the Yankees. Waaaah.. we live in Philadelphia. waaaaah SUCK IT!
The disparity in salaries between the Phils and Rays last year isn't much different than the disparity this year between the Yanks and Phils. Money doesn't mean everything or the Yankees would win 130 games every year and sweep each postseasn series.
stop watching my comments so closely. you phillies nation boneheads. I'm not that bad.
stop paying attention to me and fix your broken clock. tick…tick…genius!
Unfortunatrly the series is most likely over 🙁 Down to a must win toniggt with blanton on the mound against sabathia just seems too far out of reach. Itd be a 3-1 yankee series lead with one to play in philly. Looks like the reigning champs will lose their crown.
Yankee fans, are you so pathetic and so terrified that youre going to lose this series that you need to come onto a PHILLIES blog and try to talk trash. you tell us we dont get to players and we are less important than we think, then why do you think you get to talk smack? because you root for them? you dont help them, you dont play for them, you have nothing to do with them so why do you get to talk smack? You call us classless and bad fans. how so? i think being so pathetic that you need to go onto the other teams blog and try to talk smack to the other teams fans then you are classless. you say that we dont get to their players, well you dont get to us. you just give us something to laugh at. the minute the phillies win, they will go and hide and never show their classless faces around here again.
I think the bats have to show up tonight, 4 or 5 runs should be enough, the Phillies pen has been over rested, worry a little since Lidge has not pitched in almost two weeks. But I think they will show up tonight. JB as to pitch very good and go 6 or 7 give up 2 or 3 runs. IMO it is more that the bats have to show up 3-5 to give us a chance tonight. I will be listening on the radio in the car traveling to PA from VT for game 5. Which hopefully will put the phillies up if not, I truly believe they can take two in NYC.
All that being said, I am proud of this team, they have not laid down all year and they will not start now.
Go Big Joe, and hammer CC for tonight.
Phils win 6-2. will see you all at game 5
People like Stuart have become part of the norm in this country. They try to express their thoughts and formulate an argument but they lack the educational background and/or the ability to decipher between what they perceive to be true, based on their personal feelings, and what is in fact, reality. Stuart, just because I stated that these Philly fans have less of an impact than they think does not mean I am talking smack. If you actually believe that you do have a profound impact on players, and in turn contribute to the outcome of games, than you are lying to yourself for reasons that I can only guess. You might be the type of person who is lost in the grand scheme of things and is desperately trying to grasp at a purpose that is being composed in your own minds eye because the truth might be to much to bare. Obviously these are wildly drastic assumptions that are only grounded on a sole blog comment, but your blatant and unfounded anger speaks volumes about your charecter. Yanks in 6.
Hugh Stacks: its spelled CHARACTER
Yeah nice spelling Hugh Stacks. I can see you are lacking this educational background you speak of. And if the cheering does not do anything for the players, then why cheer? We should all just sit there silent and watch and let the players work.
Highlighting a single spelling error and not responding with anything of substance…guess my assertation was pretty close? Once again, I have no problem with cheering, it's part of being a fan; but if you believe that the cheering has some sort of significant impact would be a sad statement of insecurity.
How would that make me insecure? If I think that our cheering helps the players that makes me insecure? Do you understand what it means to be insecure. I think you are the one that is insecure. You need to make yourself feel good by trying to talk smack on a blog. Not only are you talking smack on a blog, but youre talking smack on a blog that isnt even for your team. That just makes me think that you are insecure and your fans probably pushed you away from their blog because you lack knowledge of baseball.
The thing about the A-Rod double is simple. The umps made up a ground rule that anything that hits a camera is a home run. Their reasoning behind it is that they do not control what the cameraman does with the camera. That reasoning is a lie. They do control what the camerman does with the camera, they are moving him back for game 4 and they also control what the cameraman does with the camera by having instant replay. Instant replay can check to see where the camerman is, the umps don't need to make up a ground rule about cameras. That ground rule that the umps made up is inconsistent with having instant replay. And they used the instant replay to uphold a bogus rule that should only be in effect when they do not have instant replay. That is why the call is bogus.
The ground rule that the umps made up is inconsistent with having instant replay. The rule states that any ball hitting a camera is a home run because the umps do not control the camerman. That is only true when the umps do not have instant replay. Because the umps have instant replay their reasoning behind the ground rule is a lie and the ground rule is illegal.
Hugh Stacks: I'd respond further but you can't rationalize with a bumbling fool like yourself.
It makes you insecure because your putting yourself up on an imaginary pedestal because you want to believe you are more important than you actually are. It wasn't that hard to follow.
Did your mommy write out that response for you hughy? That's pretty lame. What's next: I know you are but what am I? watch the game or go play your world of war craft
Hi just thought i would tell you something.. This is twice now i've landed on your blog in the last 2 days hunting for completely unrelated things. Spooky or what?

dear friends,
be well, be love.
grace in space a pair of satellites map subtle variations in earth?s
gravitational field, revealing secret craters, undersea mountains, and the
impact of climate change. by sam flamsteed
if the reverend nevil maskelyne came back to life, the 18th-century
astronomer royal of great britain would probably have no trouble grasping the
idea behind nasa?s remote sensing grace mission. maskelyne proposed a remarkably
similar experiment himself in a presentation to the royal society in 1772. ?if
the attraction of gravity be exerted, as sir isaac newton supposes, not only
between the large bodies of the universe, but between the minutest particles of
which these bodies are composed . . . it will necessarily follow, that every
hill must, by its attraction, alter the direction of gravitation in heavy bodies
in its neighbourhood . . . .?
that?s exactly what grace, the gravity recovery and climate experiment,
detects. every 94 minutes or so, twin satellites whip once around earth at an
altitude of 310 miles, taking 30 days to cover the planet?s entire surface, then
they do it again and again, sensing variations in local gravity. grace maps
local variations in the force of gravity over earth?s surface, revealing
mountain ranges and ocean trenches as well as underground watersheds and other
hidden concentrations of mass. a joint venture by nasa and the dlr (deutsches
zentrum fãâãâãâãâãâãâãâãâãâãâãâãâã âãâãâãâãâãâãâãâãâãâãâãâãâ ãâãâãâãâãâãâãâ¼r luft- und raumfahrt, or german aerospace center), grace looks right
past the familiar oceans, continents, and clouds, showing our planet in a fresh
light?as a knobby, blobby globe of gravitational ups and downs.
among other things, grace may have found a crater deep under the antarctic ice
that may mark an asteroid impact greater than the one that doomed the dinosaurs,
measured the seafloor displacement that triggered the tsunami of 2004, and
quantified changes in subsurface water in the amazon and congo river basins.
?this is really an entirely new kind of remote sensing,? says project scientist
michael watkins, of nasa?s jet propulsion laboratory. ?it?s like when radar or
photography was first invented?you start realizing that it can be applied in all
sorts of unanticipated ways. we?re still discovering them.?

"We are a hybrid of a convenience store, with a full-service kitchen in our store" said Raul Garza, general manager of the Stripes store in Karnes City. "We can take care of our neighborhood customers, along with our truckers."
Garza said that the new Stripes will bring a much needed and spacious fueling area for Karnes County that will help traffic flow and ease traffic congestion.
"We have 20 fuel pumps in the front of the store for cars and light trucks," said Garza. "What's really going to help out is that we got ten high-powered diesel pumps in the back of the store, which should relieve some of the traffic congestion up and down 181."
Stripes in Karnes City boasts a total of 30 fuel pumps, eight acres of concrete pavement that can park up to 89 big rig trucks, a full-service kitchen/restaurant (Laredo Taco Company), and a store for various shopping items.
The store is also beneficial to the community because it provides employment opportunity for about 55 people, according to Garza.
Stripes Convenience Stores is based out of Corpus Christi and is a regional Fortune 500 company with a total of 560 stores in Texas, Oklahoma and New Mexico. An official grand opening for the Karnes City Stripes will be held on April 12.
"There was a need for our services out here," said Garza. "You drive down the road and most gas stations out here only have a few pumps. There was an opportunity for us out here."

The Klamath County Museum housed an exhibit of the "Local Flygirls: The Unsung Heroines of WW II," featuring memorabilia from the family archives of WASP Gail Sigford, during the month of July, 2010. The public was also informed of the exhibit by an article in the Herald and News.
The 20 x 30 poster, entitled "Flyin' High," welcomed patrons of the Klamath County Museum to the WASP exhibit. Diane Johnston, a friend of Gail Sigford and the family – and a gifted artist – created this poster.
Courtesy of the artist Diane Johnston
As one of the poster's focal points she used the picture of a class of WASP on review at graduation (Courtesy of Wings Across America Digital Gallery). This picture, seen above, was also used in the museum exhibit, where Diane created a larger version in which she "fiddled around with it until it felt right" – which meant she enlarged, cropped, sharpened, colorized, and "punched it up a bit."
Silhouettes of three WW II vintage planes used in WASP at Avenger Field, Sweetwater, Texas are shown on the upper left quarter of the poster. These planes included Gail Sigford's favorites; the Stearman bi-wing (PT-13 & PT 17); the advanced trainer (AT6, known as the Texan); and as the transition to the multi-engined bombers, the twin-engine Cessna (U78, or the Bob Cat).
Courtesy of the artist Diane Johnston
A smaller version of the poster was used as a flyer which was distributed to local businesses, restaurants, and retirement homes. Bringing the eye to the Exhibit specifics, Johnston used a gold box to highlight the names of the local "flygirls," date, time and place of the exhibit as well as the featured memorabilia. In the version used for the flyer, she also replicated the gold color on the lower left, where a coupon offered a little incentive to visit the "flygirls" as well as the other museum exhibits.
The poster is a tribute to those women of Klamath County who heard the call. We can hear the echo of their song -- Off we go into the wild blue yonder, Flyin' High! into the Sun.

The LINKAGE model is a global dynamic computable general equilibrium (CGE) model maintained by the World Bank to support global trade policy analysis--for example in the current context of the multilateral trade negotiations under the auspices of the Doha Development Agenda. Its underlying database is a 2001-based global social accounting matrix (SAM) composed of 87 regions/countries (of which 69 are individual countries) and 57 economic sectors. Bilateral trade is fully accounted for and includes estimates of export taxes/subsidies, international trade and transport margins, and bilateral import tariffs that incorporate preferences. The database also includes various measures of domestic support--particularly as regards agriculture in the OECD countries. The database is a product of the Global Trade Analysis Project (GTAP) based at Purdue University. The model is recursive dynamic capturing population and labor dynamics, the role of savings and investment on capital accumulation and productivity. The model has been used widely in the World Bank's Global Economic Prospects reports, World Bank policy papers and external publications.

Last Night, I Got To Say Something To MSNBC's Touré That Millions Of Americans Have Wanted To Say For Years
MSNBC's 2nd most famous race bating host behind Al Sharpton, Touré, decided to talk a little smack on Twitter last night after he got upset about my hammering Barack Obama for his disgusting, racist comments. I'm guessing this exchange did not go exactly the way Touré imagined it.
No, it's not like that at all. RT @johnhawkinsrwn: A white woman voting for Barack Obama is like a black woman voting for the KKK.

Irish Studies
In March of 2012, with the support of the Rochester-Waterford Sister Cities Golf Tournament Committee, St. John Fisher College established a new interdisciplinary Irish Studies Program in the School of Arts and Sciences that has begun offering students the opportunity to explore the literary, social, political, religious, and cultural traditions of Ireland's past and present.
Program Benefits
- Strengthen the ties between St. John Fisher College and the City of Waterford, Ireland (Rochester's Sister City) as well as other cities in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland.
- Expand students' knowledge of Ireland from a multidisciplinary perspective.
- Promote the history and culture of Ireland, both of the past and present.
- Foster scholarship in the field of Irish Studies.
Irish History and Heritage at St. John Fisher College
Over the years, St. John Fisher College has honored Irish history and heritage through its programming, cultural treasures, and most recently by building a relationship with the Waterford Institute of Technology and the City of Waterford, Ireland. The College offers a number of courses that examine Irish history and culture. In addition to these academic offerings, the College has hosted a wide-variety of Irish cultural events, including A Day of Celebration, a cultural show with a focus on Ireland; annual St. Patrick's Day celebrations; and monthly lectures sponsored by the Rochester chapter of the Irish American Cultural Institute.
Irish history and culture are also celebrated at St. John Fisher College through two memorials. The first is a Book of Kells memorial, a facsimile of the original Book housed at Trinity College, Dublin. The facsimile was a gift to the College and the Rochester community from Irish immigrants, Irish-American descendants, friends, and members of the Monroe County Chapter of the Ancient Order of Hibernians and Ladies Auxiliary. It serves as a memorial to the loved ones of many of the contributors, and in a broader sense to all the Irish who came to the Rochester area and contributed to its richness. The second memorial is the Great Famine Monument, which honors the millions of Irish who died as a result of the Great Famine of 1845-1850. This monument was installed on the College campus in 1997 by members and friends of the Monroe County Ancient Order of Hibernians.

Music Review: Vermont music shines with CounterpointBy Jim Lowe
MANCHESTER Contemporary music means many things to many people, but it is unlikely that for most it conjures up the broad palette of beautiful sounds heard at Counterpoints Sunday concert at the First Congregational Church.
There Always Something Sings: New Choral Music by Vermont Composers, which was also performed by the states 11-voice professional vocal ensemble at the Unitarian Church in Montpelier Saturday evening and in Colchester Friday, offered three premieres by three of the states best composers, as well as three previously performed works by three other fine local composers.
The one premiere commissioned by Counterpoint was Jorge Martíns Music, a ravishingly beautiful setting of a Ralph Waldo Emerson poem. The Cuban-born Addison composer achieved an amazingly beautiful sound despite using rather complex harmonic language to reflect the text. He did this by focusing on the lyricism as well as a consciousness of vocal blending.
Like the poem, Martín offered an outward layer of traditional lyrical beauty while the inner machinations including clashing harmonies and rhythms reflected a deeper truth. He also built and varied the flavor, bringing drama to the work, coming to a climactic finale. But it always sounded beautiful.
It is most difficult to judge an ensemble entirely by its performance of unknown works but Counterpoint, led by Nathaniel Lew, its artistic director, certainly delivered a compelling and rewarding concert. Attention was given to precision and vocal quality, and these fine singers delivered ably and with passion.
Unexpected rhythms created the lively flavor of Carving of the Circle: 12 Zodiac Choruses, a setting of the F.D. Reeve poem by former University of Vermont music professor Thomas Larry Read. Each of the signs of the zodiac is given a short chorus, with Aries getting a reprise.
More tonal than Reads often dense instrumental works, Carving the Circle employs a broad variety of styles the somewhat staccato Aries, the unusual of the mix of opera and clipped rhythms in Taurus soprano-alto duet, the traditional chorus of Cancer, the contrapuntal Virgo, the Libra chorale, the striking harmonies of the haunting Aquarius, and the unexpected rhythm and lyrical play of the closing second Aires.
All this variety within makes this music difficult to perform, but Counterpoint made this musical kaleidoscope sound natural and beautiful.
Northfields Dennis Báthory-Kitsz, who teaches at Johnson State College, and another composer known for his thorny music, surprised with the premiere of his ethereally beautiful O: 11 Choruses, of which seven were performed. Here again, a wide variety of styles was employed in these settings of poems by Gary Barwin.
Like the Martín, interior machinations often very complex flowed under the musics seemingly tonal flow. The Birds was hauntingly lyrical; quietly clashing harmonies made Sparrows Song haunting; a sustained bass by the men with lyricism from the women above made Fish swim; and the music of the text created the final chorale of Regret.
Jazz rhythms and harmonies marked Large Crow from University of Vermont music professor Patricia Juliens 2004 Three Songs at Winters End. Her setting of Bennington composer April Bernards poem was most attractive, jazzy and effervescent.
Nature Revised was a 2006 collaboration between two Middlebury College faculty members. Composer Peter Hamlin used Jay Parinis poetry to create virtual sound paintings evoking not only nature in Vermont but peoples reactions to it. The graphic, colorful and often humorous poetry came to life in Hamlins complex but graphic settings.
Another UVM music professor, David Feurzeig, was represented by The True Lovers Farewell II from his 2006 Songs of Love and Protest. Although the work is filled with thorny contemporary harmonic language, the effect is tender neo-Renaissance.
Counterpoint not only performed expertly, a tribute not only to Lew but also to founder Robert De Cormier, it introduced new listeners to some of Vermonts finest composers. Concerts like this, made up entirely of new and unfamiliar music, can tax attention spans, limiting the focus on final works. (Thats why traditional classical programs often are a mix of unfamiliar and reassuring.)
That said, Counterpoint, under Lew in his second year as director, has again proved itself a vocal ensemble on a par with top instrumental ensembles what a joy.

Hi Mommas~
I am in a bout of mastitis, i get it quite often, but this time i'm confused & frustrated.
DS is 11 months, and discovering more and more each day. We've EB from the start, we co sleep. The standard remedy of nurse nurse nurse doesn't work anymore, as some days like the past 2 he hardly eats, i feel like i'm constantly pushing the boob in his face to get some relief, that in turn turns on the "faucet" and my boobs fill and no relief.
I'm treating my mastitis with natural remedies which I can successfully do, my question more lays with the nursing. I don't like to pump b/c I feel like that will just keep filling my breasts with no relief but to keep pumping, but I feel like it makes to infection worse if the boobs stay filled?????
I just pumped as I couldn't stand it any longer, as the infection is in my smaller breast, and the workhorse boob is the one neglected, which I just pumped and got 4 ounces in like 5 min.
Pump, or not? cool it with "trying" to get him to nurse?
And if one more person tells me "it seems like he's all done with the breastfeeding"......
Thank you.

It wasn't Beverly's fault.
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
Before the Houston Rockets' practice on Friday, Patrick Beverley scooped up his phone and started to scroll his mentions on Twitter. Russell Westbrook needed knee surgery, and the angry online mob had come calling for the Rockets rookie in cyberspace.
"Get off it," the Rockets trainer chastised Beverley. "And stay off until the playoffs are over."
Beverley barely blinked. Bring it on. He can take it. He can take it all. He's sorry Westbrook suffered a torn meniscus on Thursday, but Beverley apologizes for nothing. When Westbrook slowed down to call a timeout in Game 2, Beverley accelerated, lunged for the steal and crashed into Westbrook's knee.
Beverley plays fast and faster, plays forward with the desperation of an unmistakable truth that hangs over him like the basketball reaper: He doesn't want to go back.
"I want to go against Russell Westbrook again and battle him again," Beverley told Yahoo! Sports by phone on Friday evening. "I didn't try to hurt him, but that play was something I've tried in the past, a play that worked against the Suns earlier in the season – and it's a play that I'm going to continue to try again."
In these NBA playoffs, there is no more hardened, no more sturdy rookie than Patrick Beverley. More and more, he's become an indispensable part of these Rockets. With Jeremy Lin going down in Game 2, Beverley had his best game of his season with 16 points, 12 rebounds, six assists and two steals in the narrow loss to the Thunder.
As an unsure, unsteady 20-year-old, Beverley packed his bags and went to the Ukraine in 2009. Across three seasons overseas – from the Ukraine to Greece to Russia – he choked on tear gas, ducked firecrackers and waited out smoke bombs in the locker room. He absorbed a coin ricocheting beneath his eye, opening a cut and leaving him to shoot his free throws with blood gushing down his cheeks.
"The one good thing about playing back here is that the fans can't really get to you," Beverley said.
Out of the West Side of Chicago, where he had gone against Derrick Rose his entire life, he found himself needing to leave Arkansas weeks before the start of his junior year. He confessed to handing a paper into a class that someone else had written, and he didn't want to sit out a full season when the university suspended him.
Once Beverley decided to try to make his way overseas, his agent, Kevin Bradbury of BDA Management, had a plan: Get Beverley the proper tutelage, the right coaches, the right point guard mentors. For Beverley to get to the NBA, Bradbury understood he needed to transform from a shoot-first combo guard into a polished playmaker.
In the Ukraine, Beverley played for an ex-NBA assistant, Bob Donewald Jr., and "guys who were as old as my mom, 36, 37…" Beverley even won the Ukraine's second-division dunk contest.
"Pretty good dunkers over there," he said. "I won it with the dunk Nate Robinson did in the [NBA contest] that year, jumping over a 7-footer."
The Lakers drafted him in the second round in 2009, traded his rights to Miami, and Beverley, with the arrival of LeBron James and Chris Bosh, was the final cut in training camp. This time, Bradbury sent Beverley to Olympiacos in Greece to play behind Theodoros Papaloukas, the greatest Euroleague point guard ever. They played for Greek and Euro titles. They played in hellacious environments against Turkey, the blood war of all basketball blood wars.
"I learned so much," Beverley said. "I learned to be responsible for my craft. I matured over there. I wouldn't change anything about my path here. It's made me who I am."
Halfway through this NBA season, the Rockets worked a buyout to leave Russia, and he finally reached the NBA. General manager Daryl Morey and assistant GM Gersson Rosas had scouted him forever, brought him into Houston for workouts and signed him to a three-year deal to get him out of Spartak in Russia.
Now, Beverley promises to be a target for these Thunder. Westbrook is seething over the foul – "irate," a source close to him said – for what he considered an unnecessary, even a dirty, play. Beverley wants Westbrook to understand something: He didn't want him out of this series, but in it. He's been waiting a long, long time to get a chance to compete with the best guards in the NBA and wants him again, wants him soon.
"I want to play him again," Beverley said. Yes, Patrick Beverley pushed hard at Westbrook, pushed through the referee's whistle and ultimately into his right knee. Beverley started a long way from here – too long ago – and has worked up a lot of speed, a lot of momentum. There's no stopping him now.
Whatever everyone else thinks is the proper etiquette, the way people are supposed to treat superstars, Patrick Beverley just knows this about himself: He's lurching forward, full speed. No going back now, no going back ever.

It wasn't Beverly's fault.
This was hardly same O linemen chop block
Unfortunate for Westbrook and OKC, but Beverly was doing his job i.e going all out until the whistle.
Blame the NBA for the ridiculous 82 game schedule that allows players bodies to deteriorate to the point that a little knock like that can cause a meniscus tear.
Just look at the number of injuries this season and many of them are happening to players who were not on the Olympics team. 82 games in under 6 months is absurd and totally unnecessary.
^ couldnt have said it any better.
It was a basketball play, don't knock a guy for effort. It happens every thing you do, accidents happen, regardless of 200 games, 40 minutes a night, Olympics or no Olympics. It happens , it was an accident, i don't think all the games Westbrook played has anything to do with the injury. Rubio tore his ACL bumping knees with Kobe, just wrong place at the wrong time. It happens, it's unfortunate, but it happens.
I don't think its wear and tear. I mean it is but i think its they're footwear. They've been playing 82 games a year for awhile now but the injuries are starting to get more frequent and severe. So what changed? I'm a running specialist and the current trend in footwear is lightweight, lighter, lighter, lighter. The problem is that in order to make a shoe lighter you have to take something out of it. The uppers are thinner, soles are too flexible and less supportive. Meshes reduced. So these ball players feet aren't secure, heels moving around and their ball sneakers are flexing in ways that the feet or legs and knees can't react to. The vendors are constructing these basketball sneakers like running sneakers. But running is just a forward motion and the dynamic motions of basketball are not good for these new trendy light weight sneakers.

True but the game has also changed a lot in the last few years to become much faster paced, more run and gun and probably more wear and tear on the court and in the practice gyms. I mean is anyone surprised at the injury troubles in LA with MDA as the coach?
Beverly is one of those guys you want on your team. I'd take a guy like that over a lot of the more "talented" guards out there because he's willing to put in the effort, to do whatever the **** it takes. He doesn't take the position he is in for granted and his mentality is that of a warrior. Westbrook is a bit of a diva imo, not unlike rondo. Him 'seething' about the injury/foul/play just makes him seem like even more of a cry baby.

September 5, 2002: A nearly perfect ring of hot, blue stars pinwheels about the yellow nucleus of an unusual galaxy known as Hoag's Object. This image from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope captures a face-on view of the galaxy's ring of stars, revealing more detail than any existing photo of this object. The entire galaxy is about 120,000 light-years wide, which is slightly larger than our Milky Way Galaxy. The blue ring, which is dominated by clusters of young, massive stars, contrasts sharply with the yellow nucleus of mostly older stars. What appears to be a "gap" separating the two stellar populations may actually contain some star clusters that are almost too faint to see. Curiously, an object that bears an uncanny resemblance to Hoag's Object can be seen in the gap at the one o'clock position. The object is probably a background ring galaxy.
Ring-shaped galaxies can form in several different ways. One possible scenario is through a collision with another galaxy. Sometimes the second galaxy speeds through the first, leaving a "splash" of star formation. But in Hoag's Object there is no sign of the second galaxy, which leads to the suspicion that the blue ring of stars may be the shredded remains of a galaxy that passed nearby. Some astronomers estimate that the encounter occurred about 2 to 3 billion years ago.

Iowa City to consider banning plastic grocery bags
The City Council has scheduled a discussion on whether Iowa City should ban plastic grocery bags.
The council is expected to take up the proposal during a work session Tuesday.
Officials say several groups have approached the city over the years, seeking the ban for environmental reasons. The latest group to do so is 100 Grannies for a Livable Future, whose members mostly are older women interested in environmental issues.
Iowa City's recycling coordinator, Jen Jordan, says a ban isn't necessary and that the promotion of tote bags, recycling options and educational campaigns should be continued.
Public works director Rick Fosse says that any ban should be pursued regionally so shoppers won't be confused when they're at stores in nearby cities and so Iowa City retailers aren't at a disadvantage.

Thinking about heat savingsJanuary 02,2013
Thinking about heat savings
In these cold winter months, it is important to make the most of our heating energy. Everyone knows that hot air rises and cold air sinks (its called convection) but in a large house, that can mean a lot of lost heat.
Heat sources on the first floor create heat that rises up the stairwell. This rising hot air can actually move a surprisingly large volume of air and heat to the second floor. The rising hot air causes a very slight overpressure on the second floor that pushes cold air down the stairs. The rising hot air also leaves a slightly lower air pressure on the lower floors, which balances out by sucking in cold outside air from around windows and doors. This, in turn, makes the thermostat, on the first floor, kick on sooner. This rapid heat exchange gets worse as the house gets bigger, warmer or there are more floors. If you can feel it get cooler as you descend the stairs or if it is too warm upstairs but just right downstairs, then you have this problem.
One way to help reduce this imbalance is to put a fan near the ceiling of the stairwell, pointing down. This will blow some of the rising hot air back down or, at least disrupt the rapid rise of hot air up the stairwell. Sealing off upstairs rooms will reduce the volume of air that can rise and also reduce the sources for cooler air to descend. If you think of heat and cold as liquids that want to rise and sink, respectively, then the goal is to stop their flow and to capture and concentrate the heated air where you need it most and that saves money.

This coming season the new salary cap will be $53.135M. There are currently 17 NBA teams that are over 53M and most of them are not trying to add on salaries. Now my understading is that there are stipulations in the salary rule that allows teams to go slightly over the cap but not 100M over. I hear what you're saying about us being in caphell for four years but really it won't be that long. Once Houston and both Roses come off we will be just over 50 mill. This can happen in two years.
I beleive Labron James is no fool. He took a lesser deal for a reason. James may come to NY in 3 years so we've got to be ready. This is all apart of Isiah's master plan. You guys can talk that fire Zek bull$h!t if you want to but dude is a vissionary. Thomas brought in a young runing team with the future most dominate center in the league. That's right! Shaq will be gone and Duncan's game by then will begin to take a downward spiral. So there will really only be Yao and Curry. Now add in Labron James to this squad in thee years with low salaries and you've got a championship team. For this reason I say stay away from the Martin's of the league.

Representatives Amy Kramer, Tracy Conner, Juan Fernandez, Kim McCumber, Jennifer Montena, and Mike Lanotte from the New York State Credit Union League (NYSCUL) and its affiliate COVERA visited
San Juan last week to participate in several meetings aimed at

partnership manager accompanied the group.
While on the island, the New York representatives visited Caribe Federal, Jesus Obrero and Abraham Rosa credit unions.
August 17 more than 40 participants from credit unions from the island
participated in a session that explained the benefits of membership at

Mitch Kahle has made a name for himself in this town over the separation of church and state.
But he says this lawsuit is not about the First Amendment.
"This is really a real-estate case of non-payment of rent and utilities, that's what this case is all about," said Kahle.
"When we looked at this and how much money was being lost, we realized this should be brought as a whistle-blower's suit to get the money back," said Honolulu attorney Jim Bickerton.
It's a rare filing and rather ironic, in that Kahle is suing on behalf of the state.
"Over the last six years, these churches have extracted $5.6 million dollars from the Department of Education to the detriment of our state's children who rely on those funds," Bickerton said.
The suit claims that the churches filed false statements under-representing their use of state facilities.
The suit names New Hope Ministries, which for years used Farrington High School,
Kaiser High School, and Kapolei Middle School for their weekend services.
"In one writing on the Internet they say one thing and in their application they say something different. That doesn't happen by accident," Bickerton said.
The suit maintains that taxpayers are being exposed to huge liabilities-- and raised questions about a practice to give keys to the church groups to get access during off hours.
"New Hope Oahu at Farrington had a huge roll of keys that they used to access any facility on campus. They used at least eight classrooms, the gym the auditorium, the entire weekend, and they did this for 17 years," said Holly Huber a co-plaintiff in the case.
Huber says the fees to rent school facilities have not changed since 2008.
She says the DOE is losing money by renting their facilities by failing to raise their fees, and not charging enough for utilities and water.
"It's long overdue, yet the DOE has not increased the rates, even though they are supposed to look at it every other year," said Huber.
And Kahle goes a step further alleging that the school superintendent Kathy Matayoshi of covering up the internal practices.
"She in effect was acting improperly, and giving benefits to the churches to the detriment of public schools and public school children, And to be honest with you, we are outraged about this," said Kahle.
A DOE spokeswoman denies that was the case.
The attorney general declined comment.
As did the Calvery Chapel Oahu and One Love Ministries, the other two churches names in the suit.

West Rutland drivers fight for rookie honorsBy Tom Haley
STAFF WRITER | May 19,2014Anthony Edwards / Staff Photo
Shaylynn Senecal, of West Rutland, makes her way around the track during the Mini Stock Series race at Devils Bowl Speedway on Sunday.WEST HAVEN You are likely to see more and more fans from West Rutland around Devils Bowl as the season progresses. Right now, West Rutland drivers in the entry level Mini-Stock division have their own little battle brewing for Rookie of the Year honor.
West Rutland father-daughter tandem of Shaylynn and Doug Senecal, along with West Rutland neighbor Andrew FitzGerald, are the only three drivers on the Mini-Stock roster eligible for the rookie accolade.
There might well be more eventually in the popular division, but these Westside competitors figure to be in the chase all summer.
Shaylynns crew chief is her father and FitzGeralds crew chief is also his father, Scott FitzGerald.
Yes, it could be quite a cozy little club in this race for the rookie award and in West Rutland, where everyone knows everyone else and where the interest is certain to heighten.
Shaylynns grandfather is Lou Senecal, a stock car racer at Devils Bowl and at the old Fairmont Raceway back in the 1960s.
Therein lies the story behind the words Tombstone Special on her eye-catching purple car.
Lou was sponsored by Gawet Marble & Granite, which made gravestones so Lous car became known as the Tombstone Special.
Shaylynn asked her grandfather is she could put the same words on her car.
My dad got all choked up and said that he would be honored, Doug said.
Shaylynn had a tough start on Sunday, driving into the infield on a few occasions.
But she shows promise and she is doing the type of thing she had always wanted to do.
She wanted to build an Enduro and then a mud truck, Doug said. Then she wanted to have a race car. I said, Ill help you with anything you want to do.
Its no surprise to Doug that his daughter, who will graduate from West Rutland High School on June 6, would want to do this. She did not play any sports for the Golden Horde. This has always been her type of outlet.
This is her thing, Doug said. Whether she is 4-wheeling, or horseback riding, in everything she did she has wanted to go fast.
Shaylynn brought her car to Devils Bowl before the opener for practice sessions, and she said it helped.
It was fun, but nerve-racking, Shaylynn said. Im a lot more confident now.
Doug is also listed as a driver for the car.
We both have our NASCAR licence, he said. But I will only do it if there is something with the car she cant figure out or of she is overshook.
Shaylynn will not turn 18 until after graduation.
Andrew FitzGerald is the same age and is competing in the same division while also cutting his teeth on the Devils Bowl track.
His father Scott moved up from the Mini-Stock division to the Renegade class this year, leaving the car for his son.
We decided at the end of last year that since he was going up to the big car that I would race this one, Andrew said.
Scott FitzGerald Plumbing & Heating in not only a sponsor on Andrews No. 55 Dodge but also on Shaylynns No. 2 Subarau.
Scott said, Ill sponsor you guys, Doug said. He helped us set up the car and it was a big help. Im still learning it.
Theres a lot going on in West Rutland right now. The West Rutland High School softball team boasts a 10-1 record and has its sights set on a state championship.
But once the high school season is over, there will be this tight-knit rookie stock car group chasing titles of its own.
Oh, and just in case anyone from West Rutland needs some extra incentive, there is a promotion one night at Devils Bowl this season where anyone from West Rutland will be admitted free by producing proper identification.

A great set
By MNErin
from Fridley, MN
I ordered this set for my 19mo old daughter to add to our rapidly growing new sprouts food collection. Im so excited by this product this is seriously the best fake food I have ever seen, it's not to scale, but I love that it's all toddler size, durable and fun!This set was a must have for the mac n cheese bowl! What toddler doesn't love that? I appreciated that this set comes with spoons also that's great. Another great set!

The best play food out there
By Chella35
from Baton Rouge, LA
I LOVE this line of pretend play food! It stands out head and shoulders above the rest. It's so detailed and vividly colored; my daughter was ready to give away all her other play food when she recieved more of the Sprouts food, despite not having as many pieces of it in comparison to the cheapo sets you can get 100+ pcs of food for less than $15.
Great "like-real" food
By Andrea Pediatric Speech Therapist
from Concord, CA
Great price for the amount of pieces you get. Kids love the real look of the cereal and mac n cheese. The variety of the food is nice. I use it for speech evals for my under 3s (early intervention) and my kids already getting therapy.
Perfect for imaginative play!

Love this set!
By Daily Mothering
from USA
This is the perfect food set for toddlers and young children. I reviewed this product on my blog and was quite impressed. The pieces are all large and look pretty realistic. My son loves the bowls of mac 'n cheese and cereal, and the muffin is so neat because you can take the top off and remove the blueberry bunch. All around a great set and my almost 2 year old plays with it daily!

High Quality Play Food!
By Cher@MomandMore
from Chicago, IL
My kids (5, 4, and 1) all of the sudden are super into their play kitchen. Their play food unfortunately though was from a giant set and honestly it was cheap. Some of the plastic food is crushed, ripped, or just old looking. The play food was not meant to last and after a few times I really should have thrown it away.The Sprouts Munch It! My Very Own PLay Food set is not only high quality but it is food that we don't already have. From the adorable bowls of mac n' cheese and cereal to the carrot, blueberry muffin, hot dog, grilled cheese, and juice box, the set is really neat! You can tell right away that this play food is high quality because it is firmer and thicker than the traditional (or cheap) play food. My kids had a blast playing with play food that they actually eat and their favorite was probably the bowls with spoons. I love the blueberry muffin with the little blueberries inside! This is definitely a great set for any child who loves to pretend-kitchen and wants some new play food. We will be using ours I'm sure almost daily!
Our Favorite Play Food Set!
By Shelly
from Harrisburg, PA
We got this set for our 3 yr old grand daughter who has a play kitchen and was needing some play food and kitchen accessories. It comes nicely packaged in a gift-giving box and all of the pieces are durable and well-made. Our Little G was already familiar with the food pieces in this set so she was super excited to name off the correct name for each item.Her favorite pieces from the set is the sandwich and the banana. She plays with this set for hours at a time in her play kitchen making nanny and pappy all kinds of play gourmet meals :)

Many institutions ask if you are willing to "waive" your right to view your letters of recommendation. By waiving your right to view the letter you are basically stating that you are 'OK' with not viewing the letter your recommender has written and thus, the recommender has full range to express him or herself without the expectation that you will see the letter. If you do not waive your right to see the letter then you are basically telling the institution that you are 'not OK' with not viewing the letter your recommender has written. This will allow you to view the letter only if you actually enroll in the program that accepted you.
As a rule of thumb, you want to waive your right to view your letter because it will show the institution that your recommender was allowed to be candid about you in the letter. This also circles back to a point above: ask professors who can speak highly of your skills to write you a letter of recommendation.
Some students know that they will be heading on for additional schooling, but are choosing to not do so immediately. In that case, you might consider asking key faculty members to write a letter of recommendation for an intended graduate school work in a particular area after you leave, so that they will have a draft that is written when they still knew you well upon which to build at a later time when you actually apply for that intended program. Moreover, it is advisable to cultivate and maintain those relationships with these faculty members over time that in turn will support your professional pursuits. Relatedly, follow the work done in your intended field and where applicable, research interests. Take time to ask these faculty members who likely do work in these areas about their own work.
If you did not ask faculty members prior to your departure from your program, your professors may still be quite capable of writing you a strong letter, particularly if you produced high quality work. Nonetheless, samples of your work from the courses that you took from them (as noted previously) may be particularly useful to jog their memory.
