From Crime to Punishment: Criminal Records of Our Ancestors from the 18th and 19th Centuries
The second half of the 18th and the first half of the 19th centuries were characterised by rapid increase in population, urbanisation and impressive industrial growth. It was also a period of rising crime rates and grave concerns about criminality. This podcast takes researchers through the various stages of the criminal justice system of the period and focuses on the various records created, from the commission of a crime, through the court processes and on to the records of punishment. Jeff James is Director of Operations and Services at The National Archives, and has previously worked as Head of Operations at The British Library, in the University sector and as a Submariner in the Royal Navy. Jeff has an MA in History from the University of Hertfordshire and has a particular interest in 18th and 19th century crime and poverty.
Naval Medical Officers' Journals and the History of Medicine
The naval medical officers' journals of ADM 101 provide a coherent view of the beliefs and practices of a body of rank and file medical practitioners during the late 18th and 19th centuries. They provide a valuable source for examining key themes in the history of medicine in the 19th century, such as encounters with tropical diseases and the changing understanding of the causes of disease. The thorough cataloguing of the series has now made it possible to trace individual patients. This talk will analyse a sample of the records to explore these themes.
The Metropolitan Police: Its Creation and Records of Service
London's Metropolitan Police service was formed in 1829. This talk provides an overview of how crime was dealt with before this date, and how to trace the records of our Metropolitan Police ancestors at The National Archives.

Hi Ladies!
Pfffff, this is really worrying me.
I've had some very tender nippels lately. Went to see an IBCLC, too. She was pretty sure it was NOT thrush. My nippels are very, very dry and flaky, but not itchy. She gave me a combo-cream (antibiotic + crotisone... she's a pediatrician as well, so she can give prescription stuff).
It was much better, but the skin on my nippels never really recovered. It is very thin, pink and so dry it cracks and comes off.
I have 2 cracks in my left nipple and one crack starting on the right.
My nursling is 22 1/2 months old and has a very good nursing technique I'd say. It never hurt during a feed, either. But afterwards.....!
The cracking really started 2 months ago, when I started menstuating again. Could this have something to do with it?
I'm pretty sure NOT to be pg.
Now I've been reading and came across Paget's disease. And now I'm really scared.
I see the IBCLC again on wednesday... What on earth could it be???

A man was arrested wearing only a turban and a pair of women's high heels.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported that Jermaine Lloyd, 28, of Richmond County, Ga., was attempting to put on women's pink panties when police spotted him hiding behind a tree around 7:45 a.m.
While being arrested, a (mostly) naked Lloyd tried to run and dropped a Crown Royal alcohol bag on the ground in the process. The bag contained cocaine and marijuana.
Last week, deputies pulled Lloyd over after the SUV he was driving jumped a curb at a shopping center. When the officers told him he was under arrest for DUI, he fled on foot, escaping arrest. Investigators reportedly found cocaine and marijuana in the car.
Lloyd is charged with public indecency, two counts of obstruction of a law enforcement officer, possession of cocaine with intent to distribute, possession of cocaine, two counts of possession of marijuana, driving under the influence, and failure to maintain lane.
He is being held in the Richmond County jail.

Freaking out about the dead birds and fishPosted on Thursday, January 6th, 2011 at 8:25 pm
I'm just saying, if 5,000 birds fell on Indianapolis, I'd be pretty freaked out. It would look a little like Doomsday if 100,000 fish washed up on the banks of the White River. And if 40,000 putrid deceased crabs were stinking up my front yard, it would seem a lot apocalyptic.
So what to make of these and other animal deaths all over the world in recent days?
- Little Rock, Arkansas: 100,000 drum fish.
- Beebe, Arkansas: 5,000 red-winged blackbirds.
- Baton Rouge, Louisiana: 500 red-winged blackbirds, brown-headed cowbirds, grackles and starlings.
- Sweden: 100 jackdaw birds.
- Kentucky: several hundred grackles, red wing blackbirds, robins and starlings.
- New Zealand: hundreds of snapper fish.
- Kent, England: 40,000 devil crabs.
- Chesapeake Bay, Maryland: 2 million spot and croaker fish.
- Brazil: 100 tons of sardine, croaker and catfish.
- Port Orange, Florida: hundreds of dead mullet, ladyfish and catfish.
- East Texas, hundreds of coot birds.
Also rumors of turtle doves in Italy falling from the sky. Add to that the honeybees suffering Colony Collapse Disorder, frogs "leaping to extinction" from chytrid virus and a million bats dead from white-nose syndrome, and we're not even to the end of the week.
If you read all these stories, there are a couple of themes. "Experts" are dismissing them with some sort of semi-plausible explanation, such as that fireworks have caused the bird deaths. Hello? If that is the case, why don't we have mass bird deaths every Fourth of July? But what do I know. Then, of course, there are rumors of the end-times, for which (apparently) many people are waiting because, hey! we trashed the Earth and won't have anywhere left to go.
I'm speculating that the rapidity of gathering news may have something to do with so many people being freaked out about all this. Pre-Google, we'd have no idea there were so many similar incidents going on all over the world, so no one would have been worried about it. Now, we can google the search term "bird deaths" and get Realtime info on that topic and related stories from news organizations, blogs and tweets. The links above are from presumably credible news organizations (in my book, those that have editors).
I wonder, however, why these animal deaths aren't a top story on every newscast and above the fold of every newspaper. The top three stories aggregated on Google News when I got home from work this evening were all about U.S. politics. So John Boehner has a bigger gavel than Nancy Pelosi, and the Right Wing-Nuts are lying to the American people AGAIN about healthcare. We live in a truly screwed up world that pays more attention to this bullshit than to the delicate fabric of our ecosystem, on which we all depend for our very lives.
God help the birds, fish, frogs, bats and bees. And God help us.

Skip to comments.Trayvon Martin Shooting - A Timeline (Vanity)
Posted on 03/31/2012 12:58:40 PM PDT by PhatHead
(This previously pulled thread re-posted with JimRob's permission.)
I assembled this timeline and map of relevant locations based on publicly available information. My estimates of walking time are based on Google Maps measurements of the distance, and I tried to estimate on the long side. Please feel free to check all of my sources.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]
I think my methodology should be pretty obvious, so I will not bore you with those details. I did not include my source for the house where he was staying, even though it is publicly available information.
For events where there was a window of time where it could have occurred, my timeline only reflects one end of that window, but includes a note of explanation at the end. I take the girl's account at face value, and I tried not to insert any opinion at all into the timeline and map below. I will express a few deductions, conclusions and opinions in the comments below. My intent is only to focus people away from all the emotional issues and just look at these bare facts. The police, of course, have much more exact information at their disposal in the investigation.
|Zimmerman calls Sanford Police non-emergency number
|* Near clubhouse, Martin is a 3 or 4 minute walk from home
|Zimmerman: "He's running"
|Martin calls GF: "This dude is following me"a
|Operator: "We don't need you to do that"
|Martin: "Don't want to run. I'll walk fast."
|Martin decides to run.
|Martin: "I lost the guy"
|Zimmerman: "I don't know where this kid is."
|Officer Timothy Smith dispatched
|Zimmerman's call with police ends
|Martin: "I see him again."
|Martin: "What are you following me for?"
|Zimmerman:"What are you doing here?"
|Martin's call with girlfriend endsb
|Zimmerman is already yelling for helpc
|Shot firedd
|Officer Smith arrives at complex; is told about shot reports
|Smith is outside back of building
|Smith takes Zimmerman into custody
|Officers perform CPR, then are joined by paramedics
|Paramedic Brady pronounces Martin dead
|* He is 200-250 feet from where Zimmerman parked truck during the call to police
|* He is in nearly the same spot where Zimmerman lost sight of him on the call
|* He is 300-350 feet from home
a) The article states that the call began at 19:12, but this is almost certainly rounded off, and it could have begun in a 30-40 second window around this time. Maybe even a wider window.
b) As above. ABC News confirms call lasted 4 minutes, but this is likely rounded, as is the start time.
c) This is figured by subtracting the 45 seconds of screaming heard on Police Call #3 before the gunshot is heard. Zimmerman is already screaming before the call begins, so this does not represent the start of the fight or the start of his screaming - only the latest possible time that his screaming was heard.
d) Officer Smith was informed on arrival of reports that a shot had been fired. Assuming almost instantaneous relay of this information from the time the shot was heard, this is the absolute latest time it could have been fired, but it was likely earlier.
I did not include the location of Zimmerman's house for what I think should be obvious reasons, but I have seen speculation elsewhere that it is adjacent to the yard where the shooting took place. It is not.
Pinging you per my earlier note...
Exemplary job!
probably there's no access to this, but it would seem if the coroner or ME did an autopsy on trayvon martin's body and found no bruises it would be pretty strong evidence supporting zimmerman's account of what happened.
Thanks PhatHead. Nice work.
I haven't looked at your timeline or Wikipedia's yet.
Be interesting to see how they (don't) match up.
I imagine if you check with 5 different "experts", you'll come up with 7 different versions.
*story evolving as we FReep. What new facts today reverse and contradict old facts from yesterday?*
Yes, it is a fact that he was not charged, and it is a fact that police found no evidence to contradict Zimmerman's account. The speculation to which I am referring is the many stories about exactly how they came to be face to face, and who initiated the fight.
For example, a lot of commentary and news articles repeat that Zimmerman "chased" Martin, which I do not believe fits the known facts as I have summarized them above.
Excellent work. You may also be interested that Cynwoody linked another thoughtful reconstruction from this website:
on this thread:
Outstanding work.
To the contrary, though, I think one could just as easily conclude from the map and facts you have provided that Zimmerman not only followed Martin but also "chased" him ("Martin decides to run") until losing sight of him.
Martin, on the sidewalk, rounded the apartments and started heading south towards his home. Zimmerman spots him again. It appears to me that Martin then stopped and confronted Zimmerman. And that's when the SHTF.
But whether Martin walked up to Zimmerman, or the other way around—or if it was a `mutual combat'—I suppose there's the nub of the matter. The fact remains, however, that Zimmerman had the gun.
Good work. I'd love to know the location of the store T. M. had purchased his drink and sweets. Is it close?
Those facts don't support, or contradict, Zimmerman's account that Martin attacked him. The fact that Zimmerman had injuries tells us fhat there was a physical altercation; it tells us nothing about who started the fight.
I don't want to belabor this point, but there is nothing except Zimmerman's word about how the fight started. The police have found nothing that contradicts his account, but that is not the same thing as supporting it.
I do think that much of the speculation on how the confrontation started is difficult to square with the known facts.
More relevant facts.
NBA All-Star tipoff was 7:30 Eastern. Martin was already pronuonced as dead before the game tipped off.
It is .9 miles from the apartment that Trayvon was staying at to the 7-Eleven on Rinehart Rd.
Yes, I was trying to focus more narrowly here on the known timeline. I've never been able to track down the actual source of the story that he was going to 7-11. His dad was not at home when Trayvon left the house, and the story was out there before the girlfriend came forward. There was one report that the dad's girlfriend had a 13-year-old who was home, but I am skeptical of that account for several reasons - not least of which being that I suspect the dad would have been a little more concerned that Trayvon was not home if the younger boy had been waiting all night for him to come back while emergency vehicles swarmed the neighborhood.
Obviously, the "All-Star Game halftime" embellishment that popped up early on was fiction.
0.9 miles to the west on Rinehart
0.9 miles to the west on Rinehart
I read a REALLY good synopsis on a website that caters to African-Americans. Actually a very good account. They said that Trayvon and Ms Green's son were home while the Mr MArtin and Ms Green went to supper. That article also alluded to a nephew of hers that was 21 years old who had hit it off good with Trayvon. In that article, that was the reason why the dad was not worried that Trayvon was not home that evening when they got back.
The 7-Eleven story had to come from somewhere. If there was a 13 year old at the condo, his testiminy will be crucial. I wonder if the police have gone to the 7-Eleven and looked for video footage to nail-down a timeline?
You can click through the map above and see it on Google Maps with the nearest 7-Eleven marked. We don't actually know what store he may have gone to, or necessarily whether he went to any store at all. The police may know that.
The dad's account was that Trayvon had been spending time with his (the elder Martin's) nephew, who was twenty. The earliest source I could find regarding the 13-year-old was the account of the Martin lawyer, Benjamin Crump, who once said that the candy Martin had gone out to purchase was for 13-year-old Chad. Crump also alternately referred to Chad as Martin's own brother, which he was not (Martin had no younger brother of his own.)
Again, the only reason I am skeptical of this version is that I can't quite imagine that a kid sat waiting for his candy all evening long as emergency vehicles swarmed the neighborhood, and when dad got home, that would never come up. You know?
Where is the convenience store in relation to this?
Home? Did Mr. Martin live there? I thought he was visiting his girlfriend who lives there.
I'm just using "home" as a shorthand. The Martins were staying as guests with Brandy Green, the fiance of Tracy Martin (Trayvon's father.)
We don't know what convenience store he went to. If you click through the map at the top of the thread, the nearest 7-Eleven is marked on it. It is about a 20 minute walk from the home where Martin was staying.
I read a news story that the police do not believe Trayvon paid for the Skittles or the Iced Tea. I assume that if that is true that they would say this because they may have viewed the store video and perhaps watched him walk out without paying.
Click through on the map above. The nearest 7-Eleven is marked. We don't know what store he went to, but that's the closest one.
There is just so much weird about this whole thing. TM actually went to the 7-11 in the rain for as brother Al said "IT and skillets"? The whole media hysteria thing always makes me think there is something big missing. Obviously it's the truth that's missing.
Well, that's a Facebook screen grab, not Twitter, and it looks pretty fake to me.
My concerns are for all children of which Trayvon was one. If you are concerned about what happened to Trayvon Martin, you may be labelled a race baiter or a troll.
Skittles not skillets which would have armed Trayvon if he indeed had a skillet as you posted. I go to the gas station for Skittles myself cuz gas stations are closer than grocery stores. I am a conservative, white person who lives in a food desert. Gas stations have delis and are expanding their grocery depts. Suspicious of Skittles? That's a new one on me. Skittles are delish.
Common ground is a beautiful thing. We've had cop and DA trouble before in Florida.
Floridians are not race baiters or racists but someone's sure trying to make us look like haters.
Al Sharpton called it "skillets" repeatedly in a broadcast.
I just read today that the first mention of Skittles and Tea came from the lawyer, some days or time after the fact.

Mayo Clinic in Minnesota has been recognized as one of the top Cardiology & Heart Surgery hospitals in the nation for 2016-2017 by U.S. News & World Report.
Cardiac ablation is a procedure that can correct heart rhythm problems (arrhythmias). Ablation usually uses long, flexible tubes (catheters) inserted through a vein in your groin and threaded to your heart to correct structural problems in your heart that cause an arrhythmia.
Cardiac ablation works by scarring or destroying tissue in your heart that triggers an abnormal heart rhythm. In some cases, ablation prevents abnormal electrical signals from traveling through your heart and, thus, stops the arrhythmia.
Cardiac ablation is sometimes done through open-heart surgery, but it's often done using catheters, making the procedure less invasive and shortening recovery times.

(Sung to the Ghostbusters theme music)
When your stomach growls,
don't ya mess around,
Who you gonna call? Swoop food truck!
For professionals,
With cooking expertise,
Who you gonna call? Swoop food truck!
I ain't afraid of no hunger!
When I first encountered the Swoop food truck, I was inspired to reconfigure a famous little ditty for its clever crew. I did this because the Swoopers themselves specialize in reconfiguring things, and their amusing truck tells you this immediately. See, it's dressed up like an EMS vehicle, except its "star of life" symbol has "FOOD" written on it, and emblazoned on its visual parody of the Ohio state seal (which features a fork and ketchup bottle in the foreground plus a radiating burger standing in for the sun) are the words "Columbus' Emergency Hunger Response Team."
Swoop's resuscitating cuisine is also a reconfiguration of — and drastic improvement on — classic snacks. While empanadas and roasted Brussels sprouts are sometimes offered (they were out of both when I visited), mostly this takes the form of inspired sliders with attractive textures and bold flavors plus killer, scratch-made tater tots. Here's a taste (all big-flavored, small-sized sandwiches arrive on slider-appropriate buns — meaning dinky, sweetish, generally forgettable — and are $3 or 2 for $5):
• Burger: A smashed and crisped-up-on-the-griddle diner-style beauty, but big, thick and juicy and dressed with mayo, cheese and a brash homemade pickle
• BLT: Another delectable and griddle-crisped protein — this time a meaty and hammy hunk of pork belly — detailed with an arugula leaf and a fruity and zingy tomato jam
• Rib Slider: Another little crispy slab of pig meat was delightfully aroused by a tangy barbecue sauce brilliantly colliding with another perky house pickle
• Jerk Chicken Slider: A thyme-tickled, crackly battered and deep-fried poultry patty had its crunchiness enhanced by nifty pickled carrot. Mayo completed this unusual but must-have mini-munch.
• Tots Poutine ($5): Dense, crispy, salty and game-changing fried spud balls that actually tasted like potatoes were sprinkled with cheese curds and bacon lardons, then bathed in a black peppery, thick, opaque (but not creamy) and obviously homemade pan-dripping gravy

The most common Bible verse used against the very Catholic and very biblical doctrines concerning mortal and venial sin is James 2:10-11:
For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point has become guilty of all of it. For he who said, "Do not commit adultery," said also, "Do not kill."
The argument is made from this text that all sins are the same before God. Is this true?

Although you shouldn't wait one day out of the year to appreciate your mom, this is the day you can go above and beyond to show her how great she really is. Sometimes all moms want is a chance to relax and enjoy what really matters: being with family. Here are some simple, but not simplistic, ideas to help say thanks.
Give her a break
Moms are often in charge of keeping everything in check. Clean house, happy kids, folded laundry, and keeping track of where you put your keys. This time let her be the one who gets to relax for the day. Whether that's lending a hand with the chores, playing taxi for your siblings, or simply just making sure your mom can stay in bed past 7 a.m., it's the little things that will matter the most.

News & Events
April 12, 2006
Members Present: Dr. Louis Aikens, Mr. Jack Caffrey, Mr. Jack Stafford, Mr. Norris Kantor, Mr. Jeffrey Forlines, Ms. Anne Crowe, Mr. Daniel Frost, Mr. Eli Sharp, Dr. Norman Mirsky
Members Absent: Mr. Edward Knight III, The Reverend Garry Moore, Mr. James Palmer III, Dr. Lyn Guy
Guests: Dr. Albert Walker, Mr. John Cardwell, Mr. Jim Nelson, Dr. Don Smith, Ms. Shelia Johnson, Dr. Jim Voelker, Mr. John White, students Ms. Anita Curto and Ms. Natausha Lipscomb, and Ms. Anita Barilla
Consideration of 2006-2007 Tuition and Fee Request
Chairman Norris Kantor called the meeting to order at 4:00 p.m. in the Conley Hall Conference Room and explained that a deadline is rapidly approaching for the college's tuition and fee increase request to be received by the Higher Policy Commission in Charleston, WV.
Ms. Johnson reviewed Attachment 1 from the Board members' meeting packet and explained that the tuition and fee increase requests are due at the Higher Education Policy Commission by April 15 for approval. Ms. Johnson informed the group that the estimated increase is 8% for in-state tuition, which is expected to generate $450,000 in additional revenue. A new fee request is included, a "metro rate" that will be an amount between the in-state and the out-of-of state tuition rate in order to accommodate counties bordering West Virginia. Other institutions in the state have adopted the metro fee and promote it aggressively. Ms. Johnson reviewed the state funds received this year and called the group's attention to the estimated additional expenditures.
Dr. Mirsky questioned the faculty positions included in the estimated expenses. Dr. Smith explained that the advertising efforts for one position in Psychology and one in Speech will hopefully yield two candidates in each case– one to fill the current vacant positions in Psychology and Speech and one additional position for each of these areas. Discussion followed.
Ms. Johnson discussed the additional IT/Finance Office position and explained that the current position of business manager would be changed to non-classified to respond to the college's audit management responsibilities and an additional classified position of Accountant Sr. would be added. These positions are necessary due to the added workload of shared services for NRCTC. Ms. Johnson reviewed the skills and experience of the current business manager and the reasons for changing the position to non-classified. Mr. Frost brought the group's attention to the fact that the change from a classified position to non-classified position must be an action item for the Board's consideration. Ms. Johnson informed Mr. Frost that these adjustments will be brought before the regular Board of Governors' meeting on April 20 but must be addressed in conjunction with the increase in tuition and fees. Discussion followed.
Ms. Johnson reviewed the increase in minimum wage and the effects on the budget of the institution. Other items discussed were increases in the cost of the audit, PEIA, salary for deans, and faculty increment (mandated by legislature). Mr. Frost questioned the faculty increment and why there were no increases included in classified staff salary. Ms. Johnson explained the expected increases in employee health insurance, and additional funds needed due to a bill which passed stating that state agencies must contribute to a reserve for employees who retire effective July 1. Ms. Johnson also discussed "lata" charges. These are charges for long distance and Internet services. Up to this point those charges have been shared by all institutions but there is a possibility that Bluefield State may have to pick up a large portion of these charges. Discussion followed.
Ms. Johnson discussed the requested increases in tuition and fees at other institutions and stated that BSC will still have the lowest tuition rates of all public four year colleges in West Virginia. The proposed recommendations are being made because of unknown increases in expenses as well as increases currently known. She stated that a request for pay raises may be brought before the Board in the fall when enrollment data is received and the amount of increases in all expenses are known. Ms. Johnson reviewed the increase of in-state tuition from $1,705 to $1,841, an increase of $136. Out of state fees will increase from $3,507 to $3,880, an increase of $373. An exclusion of Title III funds has been requested in the formula for out of state tuition. If Title III is not excluded the out of state tuition will increase $600. Mr. Frost discussed the need for classified employees to receive raises and the fact that no raises are included in the recommended proposal. Ms. Johnson reported that to fully fund the classified staff would require an increase of almost $500,000 to the annual budget. Discussion followed.
Dr. Aikens questioned the increase for out of state tuition and asked if it was included in the $450,000 figure in the handout. Ms. Johnson informed the group that this figure does include both instate and out of state tuition and remarked that the proposed in-state rate is an 8% increase and the out of state rate is 10.64% (out of state rates are based upon the state formula). Mr. Kantor brought the group's attention to the metro rate and how it might boost the institution's revenue. Ms. Johnson reported that the proposal for a metro rate is for all counties bordering West Virginia. Mr. Cardwell reviewed the proposal and the projected enrollment and informed the group that the rate would be the average between in-state and out of state tuition. Ms. Johnson stated that the cost of instruction will be reduced and enrollment will increase. The cost per student will decrease. Dr. Aikens stated that the metro rate could be rescinded if it was not beneficial to the institution. A motion was made (LAikens/JCaffrey) to accept the proposal for the border county metro rate. Discussion followed. Motion carried with two votes of opposition (JStafford and ACrowe).
Ms. Johnson reviewed the special fees and the justification for each. Discussion followed. A motion was made (JForlines/JCaffrey) to approve the proposed tuition and fee increases with the correction of an increase from $60 to $120 in the B.S.N. instead of $100 as stated in the Recommended Resolution. Motion carried with one vote of opposition (JStafford).
Mr. Forlines asked that Mr. Cardwell include the projected impact of metro rates in the enrollment report at the April 20 Board of Governors' meeting.
Mr. Kantor suggested a study be done on the possibility of creating a new Physicians Assistant program at BSC.
With no further business to discuss, the meeting was adjourned at 5:37 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,

New Padres Crushes :)
So at FanFest last Saturday, Hyun Young and I were talking about our baseball crushes with jbox from Gaslamp Ball. jbox asked me who my new Padres crush would be now that Kouz is gone and gave me some suggestions. I wasn't really sure who I wanted to make my new crush, but I've finally realized who they are going to be! I can't believe I didn't think of them before, but let me present to you, my new Padres crushes!
I LOVE THESE GUYS!!!! LIKE CRAZY!!!! I guess just through chasing after them all day at FanFest, I really fell in love with them. I've always really liked Scotty, especially with how well he did for us, but I had Kouz then. It's really ironic that we got Scotty for Kouz. I was so sad about losing Kouz that I couldn't be too happy about getting Scotty in return. But now that we've got Jerry, I'm doing a lot better with it. Now, I'm super excited about having both the brothers here.
They are so adorable!!!
I've always loved the brother combinations: the GilesBros, the GonzoBros. Neither of those worked out that great, but I've got a feeling that the HairBros are going to be AMAZING together.
You have no idea how much more excited about this team I am now that I've got two guys who I'm a little more attached to than the others. Don't get me wrong, I would still be very excited about this team even if I didn't have the HairBros, but it just helps to keep excitement in the team.
It's still going to be an adjustment to get used to not having Kouz around, though. Every spring, padres.com interviews a bunch of players and usually put a video up every day of the interview and then players working out. For the last two years, I was super excited about watching those videos because I couldn't wait to see Kouz out there. It was so cool to be able to see him batting and running around and get ready for the season. This year, I won't get to do that. And that's pretty sad. But I will be able to look for the HairBros.
Argh it's going to be weird not to have Kouz here. But you know what? I'm still his biggest fan. He's still my all-time-forever FAVORITE player in all of baseball ever. And when I say ALL of baseball, I mean ALL of baseball: any Little League, high school, college, Major League, anything. He's my favorite player out of ANY baseball. There's no way he can stop being my favorite, no matter where he's playing. So I'm still cheering for him like crazy up in Oakland. Believe me, I'm going to be following him, every game. I don't think I'll become a A's fan, but I'll sure be following their games like one!
Love you, Kouz.
I can't wait for a real baseball game to start!!!!! It's been waaaay too long.
So did you see that we signed Josh Barfield to a minor league contract? Crazy! That's the guy we traded to the Indians to get Kouz in the first place! Hmm. It would be very interesting if he made the roster.
Become a fan of Unfinished Business on Facebook!

Suggestion from another Padre fan here. Do NOT root for any one who doesn't play for the Padres. If Kouz is not a Padre, that means him too. Because if you are Kouz's biggest fan then you root for him in all situations. And that is not acceptable to root for him against the Padres. And if he comes up against us in interleague play with the bases loaded do NOT root for him. If you are a Padre fan, you are a Padre fan first! I understand liking a player that's been traded, I've had it happen to me too. Re think the comment "there's no way he can stop being my favorite." I understand you respect the guy, fine. Just don't let blindly being a fan get in the way of being rational. The HairBros are great. I will pick a new favorite player that I can root for in all situations, no matter what.
Do you think we are seeing Adrian's last days as a Padre?
Thank you for your concern, but don't worry: no matter how I sounded in this entry, the Padres do come first before Kouz. I am very relieved that we don't have to play the A's the year, but when we do and if that situation comes up, you can bet that I'll be cheering for the Padres. Of course, I want to cheer for Kouz 'cause he's my favorite, but my team comes first. That's why I haven't stopped being a fan so far. If I was just attached to the players, I would have stopped being a Padres fan long ago after the loss of Trevor Hoffman, Jake Peavy, and now Kouz. No matter what players are on the team, the Padres are my team. Kouz will always be my favorite PLAYER but the Padres are my team and they will always come before any player or team.
As for Adrian, I don't know how much longer the Padres will be willing or able to keep him. So I do think that we're coming near the end here. If we're not over .500 by the second half of the season, he's going to get traded. If we can stay above .500 and be somewhere near first place, I'll think the Padres will risk keeping him so that we can make a push towards the playoffs. I guess we'll just have to see how this team pulls together and how they do in the first half.
I know you a Padres fan first and foremost. There is no doubt there.
The Hairston bros are adorible!! I'm glad the season is coming soon!! Only about a month and a half till Opening Day!! About time too. Now if only it would STOP SNOWING HERE!! Good luck this season!!
It is always pretty cool when relatives play on the same team. It would be really awesome if the Molina brothers all played on the same team. Sorry bout Kouz but we all have been through having our fav. player get traded. For me it was that traitor in LA.
Bob, http://bostonsports.mlblogs.com/archives/2010/02/fantasy_baseball-_outfielders-.html
I am glad you got your favorites lined up for the season and I love your tribute to Kouz on the side.

Guide to Stock Screening
These approaches run the full spectrum, from those that are value-based to those that focus primarily on growth. Some approaches are geared toward large-company stocks, while others uncover micro-sized firms. Most fall somewhere in the middle. There are even a number of specialty screens that attempt to gauge the stock selection impact of a single variable-such as earnings estimates revisions. Needless to say, the characteristics of these stock investment approaches vary widely.
Choosing a Screen
It is important to understand the investment characteristics of any approach you are using. By browsing through the passing companies tab of a stock screen, you can get a better idea of the kind of companies that a screen favors along with a sense for any industry concentrations that a screen may generate.
AAII tracks the results of the screens on this site. Every month we update each screen using Stock Investor Pro and post a new list of passing companies. The results are usually posted in the middle of each month using data from the previous month's end.
Welcome to the American Association of Individual Investors.
AAII is a nonprofit association dedicated to investment education. For full access to our award-winning content, classrooms, model portfolios and stock screens, please take a moment to Join AAII today for only $29.
Join AAII today!
The purpose of AAII's stock screening area is to provide you with access to a wide range of investment approaches.
The performance of the stocks passing each screen is tracked on a monthly basis. The month-to-month closing price is used to calculate the return, which assumes an equal investment in each stock at the beginning of each month. The impact of factors such as commissions, bid-ask spreads, cash dividends, time-slippage (time between the initial decision to buy a stock and the actual purchase) and taxes is not considered. This overstates the reported performance, but all approaches are subject to the same conditions and procedures. Higher turnover portfolios would typically benefit more from these simplified rules. Sell rules are the same as the buy rules: The screens are simply reapplied using each subsequent month's data. Thus, a stock is "sold" (no longer included in the portfolio) if it ceases to meet the initial buy criteria, and new stocks are added if they qualify. Stocks that no longer qualify are dropped even if the strategist behind a particular approach suggests different sell rules versus buy rules.
What Works Best
In terms of any judgment concerning which screen appears to work best, we recommend that you look at the long term returns as well as recent performance. Understand that the screen portfolios that we present are merely computer-generated lists, based on our own interpretation of popular investment approaches. Screens following the approach of an investment guru do not represent their actual stock picks. The rules of each screen are defined by our interpretations of their respective investment approaches. The criteria or rules used to generate the list of passing companies are presented for each strategy.
That being said, our screen tracking results are quite revealing. If you want to examine the numbers, complete performance statistics—including year-by-year return figures—they are presented in the performance table. Note that you can also gain access to this table by clicking on "Performance" link of the Stock Screens main page. Remember that past performance is no guarantee of future success.
The Portfolio Characteristics table presents a snapshot of the characteristics of the stocks that made up each portfolio at a specific point in time. This table is updated semiannually and provides an indication of the types of stocks that each strategy tends to hold.

Category Definitions
Click here to see how we categorize the screens that AAII makes available.
Keep in mind that the screens here are our own interpretations of the investment approaches advocated by numerous strategists. While we have attempted to illustrate a practical set of rules for each approach, the screens are only the first step. We recommend that you use them to generate an initial list of potential investments that merit further research. In addition, the monthly updates do not replicate a buy-and-hold strategy, which is the optimal approach for an individual investor.
When determining which screen(s) you want to follow, you need to ask yourself the following questions:
- How is your screen of interest reacting relative to the current market environment? If it is deviating substantially, what is the cause of that deviation-is it the individual stock picks, or is it a deliberate over-concentration caused by the screen's investment methodology?
- Are the screen's characteristics more similar to a value-based or growth-based approach? Any screening approach that you follow should match your individual needs and risk tolerance.
- What is the proper benchmark to measure the performance of your screen and its resulting stock picks? It is important to look at the characteristics of your portfolio (market capitalization, industry concentration, growth vs. value) so that you can properly evaluate the performance.
- How frequently does your list of "passing companies" within a screen change? If trading is frequent, you need to consider developing "hold" criteria; selling whenever initial buy criteria is no longer met may cause you to sell winners too soon.
- Most importantly, remember that screening is just a first step. There are qualitative elements that cannot be captured effectively by the very quantitative screening process that we present. Detailed fundamental analysis of any stock you are considering for purchase is necessary for successful investing.

Nice post reminding us of those who have passed on in 2010. I remember Lima and King very well.
Thanks Jane,
I saw a picture of King with all those Yankee rings.
Nice Post. You can also include Danny McDevitt, he won the last game ever in Ebbets Field for the Dodgers. He died in mid November.
The minute I read your post I said "Shoot!!" "I knew I had forgotten someone!" "shoot" "Aghhh! I had read that in the obituary back in November" Thank you so much for catching that. Going back to correct that.
How did you compile the number (54) of Brooklyn Dodgers still alive? Is there a website you got it from? I'd like to see the complete list.
A year ago I started compiling the list 'cause I was wondering how many of them were alive. We had 63 when I started the list last January and before posting it one passed away so we were down to 62. Now is 54.
Here is the list I posted a year ago.
I have the list at work in a excel worsheet so I can sort any way I want 'cause I wanted to know the oldest, the youngest, the ones having a birthday. Malinoskwy is the oldest at 101 and Rod Miller the youngest turning 71 on January 16th. Koufax is the third youngest.
I'll post an updated one.
Thanks a lot for re-posting the list. I look forward to the updated one. I'm going to make a copy of it and add the years that each player played for the Dodgers and also see how many on the '55 championship team are left.
I decided not to wait to get the list I have at work. This one I can't delete individual lines. I guess it considers the whole thing as an entry so I am typing a new one from that list. You are welcome to copy the new one once I post it.

'What is it? Wednesday'
School has begun and with it starts a whole new year of "What is it? Wednesdays" in my husband John's 12th grade social studies classes at Sullivan West.
What is "What is it? Wednesday" you ask? Well, are you old enough to have used the gramophone, 45 records, eight-track tapes, the Walkman or only the Ipod?
For kids who are on the edge of remembering 9/11 (the current crop of seniors was six or seven at that time) "What is it? Wednesday" is a mid-week diversion from the regular classroom routine, a kind of high school "show and tell" and a guessing game in which students try to figure out the use or identity of an antique or by-gone artifact. It only takes a few minutes and is a fun way to connect students to history, past ways of life and the local community.
And I think for John it is a way to remember and honor people and places. For instance, there is a rusted piece of metal harness John found when walking with our neighbor Anthony Connolly (Anthony had Parkinson's disease and this was one of the last times he was able to manage going into the woods by his old home.) Anthony actually knew the name of the horse that had worn the harness. Then there is the wooden peg that John pried out of our crumbling family barn (now gone, too). The pegs were used instead of nails. They are a testament to the craftsmanship and hard work of our ancestors. There's even an old, perfectly intact inkwell that my husband found years ago when a bulldozer had done some excavating in the Narrowsburg School playground. It was like a seashell washed up on the beach—an echo of kids playing generations ago.
Items have come from students themselves, other teachers and friends. Oakum is a twisted, seaweed looking hemp fiber used as a kind of caulk in old ships—a gift from my sister, Nancy, who loved the idea of "What is it? Wednesday." The metal maple syrup tap was brought in by former student Nick Shevak and the bed warming stone is from my friend Rebecca Nevin-Gales.
We have also collected many bits and pieces over the years ourselves from yard sales and junk shops and now have a stock of stuff like the antique curling iron, daguerreotypes, and the plastic insert for a 45 record (they are often stumped by it.) All these are considered part of the classic "What is it Wednesday" canon. The cow magnet (a magnet a cow is made to swallow to collect any nails or metal it might have ingested) is a favorite. The farm kids typically get that one right away.
Old washboards are immediately recognized, even if no one has seen one before, due to their presence in movies. Canning jars and the old-fashioned ice cream freezer with a turn crank are easy ones, too.
But John still has yet to work up the nerve to bring in the antique breast pump that we found in the cellar of our house when we moved in. It looks like an old, glass bicycle horn with a red, rubber squeezer—it's a far cry from the newest Medela model.
As schools adopt the latest in state mandates with increases in standardized testing, I worry about what will happen to all the fun learning activities like "What is it? Wednesday" in our schools. Will some of them be lost in the push to raise test scores?

Financial Literacy Month Fact: The grandparents are coming. The grandparents are coming.
- 11:02 pm Friday, April 5th, 2013 by Dian Vujovich
In case you haven't noticed, there has been a big surge in the number of grandparents roaming around America these days. And it's not just Baby Boomer grandparents: People have been growing older and dying at a later age for years. So this long-life thing isn't a short-term trend but a long-term reality that will impact everyone whether they become a grandparent or not.
My favorite commercial on TV these days is Prudential's "Age Sticker" one.

Hidden treasures in the mountains
The Antique Palace Emporium (300 Chestnut St.) is just west of the village of Liberty on Chestnut Street, or Route 52 West. This treasure trove of beautiful and elegant, completely restored furniture spanning the years 1875 to the 1930s is run by Denise Reeves. Any piece of furniture here would bring classic elegance to your home. There were dining room sets, with chairs and breakfronts to match; and many handsome bureaus and matching mirrors. Mahogany, cherry and walnut pieces were all there. Matching boudoir lamps sat on the bureaus to finish out a bedroom's look. There were occasional tables, bed headboards—almost anything you might need to furnish an entire house elegantly. My favorite, on the first floor by the entrance, was a 1920s-era French dining room set with a beautiful, banded satin wood finish. It included six chairs, with newly upholstered cushions and seat backs; three leaves; two servers, one large and one small; and a full china cupboard to match the table. This was a lovely collection of sophisticated furniture and furnishings.
Further east, where Route 52 intersects with Main Street, is Town and Country Antiques (1 North Main St.). This store is bursting with treasures: furniture, glassware, china, bronze statues, period milk glass lamps, vintage clothing, jewelry and even a gorgeous harp. You could have your choice of Victorian loveseats, early 19th century sideboards, Sheraton desks or some apothecary jars and vintage original design soda bottles. They had what seemed like an endless collection of early 20th century jewelry and clothing. You could dress the entire cast of a Great Gatsby production right there. Fun indeed! However, my favorite was tucked in the rear of the store on the first floor—I was charmed. A child-sized, gorgeous collector's Blackwood Doll sat on an old chair and stole my heart. She had long brown ringlets; gorgeous eyes; a crisp, sunny, yellow dress with white eyelet trim; yellow hair ribbons; and yellow "Mary Jane" shoes to match. What a charmer. Stop here and let your imagination go wild.

'Draped Seated Woman' by Henry Moore was sold to one of London's borough councils at a knock-down price in 1962 on the understanding it would be displayed in the area, which was notorious for its social deprivation and which had also been heavily bombed during the Second World War. It is currently displayed at a sculpture park in Yorkshire.
LONDON — A debt-stricken district of London is to sell a sculpture gifted to the local area by celebrated artist Henry Moore, prompting fierce criticism and raising questions over the future of other publicly owned artworks amid austerity cuts.
The mayor of Tower Hamlets — one of the poorest areas of Britain — decided late Wednesday to sell the 8-foot Henry Moore bronze statue "Draped Seated Woman" as the borough council tries to cut a deficit of $144 million.
It is thought the sale of the sculpture could raise up to $32 million for the council. Independent mayor Lutfur Rahman over-ruled the concerns of a committee of politicians to order the artwork be auctioned to the highest bidder.
Ian Leith, founder and deputy chairman of the Public Monuments and Sculpture Association, told the U.K.'s Guardian that the high-profile decision means other towns and cities might now be tempted to see artworks simply as financial assets.
"We fear that this is the beginning of local authorities wanting to realize the assets they have in their public sculptures," he told the newspaper. "But the danger is that we won't find out about these sales: There is no national audit of public art in England and no at-risk list."
In the United States, at least four cities have declared bankruptcy as they struggle to make budget cuts.

Among those criticizing the London decision was Danny Boyle, the "Slumdog Millionaire" film director and choreographer of the London 2012 Olympic opening ceremony, who is also a resident in the east London borough.
Boyle told the Daily Telegraph: "The Moore sculpture defies all prejudice in people's minds about one of London's poorest boroughs. That alone makes it priceless to every resident."
Moore, who died in 1986, sold his sculpture to the council in 1962 at a knock-down price on the understanding it would be displayed in the local area, which was notorious for its social deprivation and which had also been heavily bombed during the Second World War. It sat in a public housing project in Stepney Green until 1997 when the project was demolished and it was loaned to a sculpture park in Yorkshire.
'Not insurable'
Heather Bonfield, the council's interim head of culture, told a meeting on Wednesday night that displaying the sculpture in public parks in the area was no longer feasible because of the risk of vandalism and metal theft, making it "not insurable", according to a report in The Wharf local newspaper.
Tower Hamlets councilor Shahed Ali told ITV News the cash raised would be used for "services for local people, services that will make as big difference to our local residents."
"We have youth population that is the largest in Europe and the money will help address those needs," he said.
A diverse community in East London will welcome the world to Britain for the 2012 Olympic Games. Meet residents and hear how they feel about having a huge, world stage in their backyard.
Tower Hamlets was one of the six boroughs adjacent to the Olympic Park, which transformed a derelict former industrial wasteland in east London into the epicenter of the 2012 Summer Games.
Sharon Ament, director of the Museum of London Docklands which is in the borough, proposed a plan to host the statue – but her offer was rejected.
"We are hugely disappointed," she told ITV News. "Just because we're going through really tough times financially, it doesn't mean to say that the cultural, artistic and spiritual needs of the population shouldn't be met."
Local member of parliament, Rushanara Ali, told the East London Advertiser: "The sculpture belongs to the people of the East End and should remain in public ownership and be available for everyone to enjoy as Henry Moore intended it.
"This is a betrayal of the East End's working class heritage. The sale will only make a small contribution to the council's budget."
In Sunday's Observer newspaper, commentator and local resident Rowan Moore wrote: "'Draped Seated Woman' fulfills an ideal that nothing was too good for ordinary people, an ideal that modern local politicians are in danger of losing. To sell the sculpture as if it were a piece of real estate would … betray Moore's generosity. It would raise the question why anyone should ever want to offer anything to a local authority again."
Tower Hamlets to sell a GIFT from Henry Moore to it citizens.Disgraceful!— Joan Bakewell (@JDBakewell) November 8, 2012
Local journalist and blogger Ted Jeory told NBC News the decision to sell the statue in order to keep funding for current local projects was a "vote-buying program" by Mayor Rahman, who is up for re-election in 18 months. "This is not about government cuts, it's about his love of power," he said.

The wondrous video games of the future were just unveiled at the E3 conference, the annual industry show where they demonstrate the next generation of software intended to keep us from going outside and committing crimes.
Now, like many people, I like to purchase video games and complain about them, to help myself forget that there are people in the world who don't have food. About a decade ago, I wrote a Gamer's Manifesto that was an epic list of things that drove me nuts about my favorite hobby (I'd link to it, but it got partially eaten by the server at some point), and now seems like a good time to do it again, since console gaming is slowly dying.
What, you didn't hear? Yeah, game makers are going bankrupt so fast, it's hard to keep track of them, Microsoft is losing money on the Xbox to the point where they're considering selling off their gaming division, and all three new consoles have failed in Japan, where everyone is playing games on their phones instead. It really does look like that is the future of gaming -- free mobile bullshit where you smash rows of candy and win by paying real money for power-ups (Candy Crush is raking in a million dollars a day with that racket).
Man, fuck that. I want games that can whisk me away to other worlds and inspire me with the kind of fantastic stories and characters that kept me from leaving my room for most of my childhood. But I'm losing faith, because of things like ...
6 Games Where You Pay Money to Win
The industry calls them "microtransactions"; the term gamers use is "pay to win." At E3, we saw games like DriveClub for the PS4, which lets you pay real money for faster cars, as well as pay-for upgrades in Ubisoft's The Crew ...
... and you can just assume it with any game from EA -- they've promised that microtransactions will be in every single fucking game they make from now on. While they didn't explicitly say they'll be in Battlefield: Hardline, they've already come to Battlefield 4, so, you know, do the math.
If you've never run into them, here's how it works: Say you're immersed in a tense sci-fi adventure full of grotesque monsters eagerly waiting for you to blow them to pieces with a gun that shoots saw blades. You fight your way through a creepy derelict spaceship, as one does, and come upon a device that will let you upgrade your gun using some materials you've gathered. But then the machine reminds your character that if he'd prefer, he can simply pay for the upgrades with Microsoft Points. That is, with the player's real, actual money.
Game Trailers
Welcome to Dead Space 3, asshole.
I don't know about you, but I'm real big on immersion in games. It's why I play, and it's what separates consoles from that simplistic iPhone bullshit -- they have the horsepower to bring worlds and characters to life, and to make us care what happens to them. All Candy Crush can make me feel is the frustration of failure or the momentary elation of moving on to the next level. So even if I was OK with getting nickel-and-dimed on a game I already paid $60 for, due to some kind of head trauma or something, I am not OK with getting yanked out of the story with a reminder that I can make all of these monsters bow to my will if only I hand over my real-world allowance.
I already know what some of you are saying, thanks to our cutting edge software that lets the editorial team access your computer's microphone at any time: "But Wong, you don't have to pay! It's just an option!"
Ah, see, but they have another trick up their sleeve (and I think I can hear your dog scratching to be let in). Here, get out your phone and play Candy Crush for an hour. I called that game the future of the medium just a few inches ago, and here's why: It's a "free" game that has earned more than $1.4 billion for its makers. Yep, it's going to wind up making more money than The Avengers did at the box office, and it cost almost nothing to create.
How are they raking in mountains of cash off a free game? Well, I wrote an article a few years ago about video game addiction and how game makers use techniques perfected by B.F. Skinner to get your brain hooked. Candy Crush, and the tens of thousands of games just like it, have boiled this addiction-based gameplay down to its simplest, most potent form. Levels are designed so that you breeze through five easy ones, then fall just one move short of your goal -- at which point you are prompted to buy a few extra moves for just one dollar. If you refuse, you have to start the level all over again, and if you fail it five times, you have to stop playing for half an hour ... unless you pay a few dollars. Or you can buy yourself some power-ups, for a few dollars more.
Now, I'm a more intelligent and savvy consumer than most of you, so I saw through this scam after only 190 levels. But the point is that the entire design of the game is intended to frustrate you into paying the money. It is a solid-gold economic model that is disrupting an industry where big-budget, immersive fantasies are driving their studios into bankruptcy.
And in the Future ...
Although this isn't exactly a feature that publishers tout in the E3 gameplay demos -- they've hinted that the new shooter from Bungie, Destiny, will have them, and we know that Forza Motorsport 5 on the Xbox One offers faster cars for real-world cash, so it seems safe to assume they'll be there in Forza Horizon 2 -- this train only goes one way.
And once these microtransactions are the norm in console games, they'll be designed around maximizing them. That's where the real money is -- Candy Crush has shown them the way. It's kind of the model casinos use, the only difference being the machine never pays out real money. You only win the right to keep playing and paying.
5 Social Gaming Bullshit Instead of Real-Life Multiplayer on the Sofa
The Assassin's Creed franchise was once about a lone assassin murdering historical figures after listening to their boring conversations for an hour, but at E3, we saw that the upcoming Assassin's Creed: Unity is about you and three online strangers gang-murdering the targets:
That was the theme this year -- Fable: Legends turns the beloved RPG series into a multiplayer co-op adventure, and Far Cry 4 has the option for a friend to drop in and help you murder natives. All of the big new franchises are seemingly built entirely on social gaming with strangers (The Division, Destiny, Evolve). The Division's onstage demo even had the presenters sadly pretending to play with one another, complete with hilariously fake banter:
"But Wong, we all know you famously hate everyone and thus have no friends to play with -- why can't you just ignore that option?"
You can't. They won't let you. In Need for Speed: Rivals for the PS4, for example, you can't pause the game. If you get a phone call or want to stop for a few seconds to take a bite of your burrito, or if a burglar barges in and you need to dive screaming across the room to stab him in slow motion, the game plays on without you -- at which point an enemy driver will smash into you and kick you out to the menu screen, causing you to lose everything you had earned in the level.
The reason they took away the pause function in single player is because you can't pause a multiplayer game, and they want to remind you that you really should be playing multiplayer. It's the same reason it constantly reminds you that you should be logging in to your EA Origin account (completely separate from the PlayStation Network account you've already had to log in to, because having it all controlled on one network would just be insane). All so that strangers can come in and run your car off the road while you're trying to complete single player challenges. Fun!
So instead, I decide I want to pop in NBA 2K14 to play a nice pickup game of basketball on the sofa with my burglar while we wait for the ambulance. It immediately hangs on the intro screen, because it's trying to log in to the 2K servers and they can't handle the load. It's the exact same problem that made PC gamers furious at Diablo III and Sim City, now having quietly arrived on my console -- a machine I bought specifically because I hate messing with this kind of PC bullshit.
It's not that multiplayer games are becoming more popular -- all of the above games are primarily designed to be single player -- it's that they're trying to force social gaming elements into every game. Pop in Watch Dogs and you'll need to sign in to Uplay (Ubisoft's multiplayer network -- again, what would life be like if you didn't have to create a separate username and password for every fucking new game you buy?), and by default strangers will be able to come in and try to "hack" you in your single player game, until you go find the menu option to turn it off.
Look, I get it. Some people enjoy the company of strangers and don't actively avoid them as I do. I know why the PS4 has a "share" button on its controller and why I'm getting prompted to post my shit on Facebook on every menu screen -- the kids are all about social media these days, according to a sitcom I saw recently. Maybe it's just that my line of work has made me scared of random people on the Internet, because I get so many messages from strangers who think they're being stalked by demons.
But as I said above and will probably say again in this article, my love of video games is rooted in my desire to get immersed in a fantasy, and that immersion gets broken when some teenager interrupts my epic story to tell me he banged my mother so hard that it turned me gay. Or, you know, when server issues kick me out of the universe completely.
And in the Future ...
While seemingly every new game at E3 promised online co-op, you know what I didn't see once? Split screen. You know, so you and your real-life friends and family can play together on the sofa. Destiny doesn't have it, even though the game it's a pretty clear copy of (Borderlands) did. I mean, I guess the Wii U promises that sort of thing, such as the ability to inexplicably play as Ice-T in the new Smash Bros:
His entrance music is "Cop Killer."
But I guess I'm just an old man yelling at a cloud here, because for me, the new trend is "social" in all the wrong ways. My wife and I played through Borderlands 2 together, and I now wonder if I'll get to do something like that again, ever, in my life. There's no split-screen racing in that Need for Speed game -- that's apparently purely Mario Kart territory now. I guess people just ... don't play that way anymore? Laughing and drinking and getting pizza grease all over the controllers? Those Rock Band games that were all the rage a few years ago, that was the last gasp?
That's too bad. My favorite high school memories are of playing through games in my bedroom with all of my friend. I mean, not my favorite memories. I'm not a loser. My favorite memory is the time I won that, uh, sex tournament. No, really, I still have the trophy. At the top is a golden angel holding my boner.

Fair Haven commissions hydro studyBy Lucia Suarez
STAFF WRITER | January 10,2013FAIR HAVEN — Town officials want to know if they can power municipal buildings using hydro power from the three dams located along the Castleton River.
On Tuesday night the Select Board awarded a $10,000 bid to John "Jay" Boeri, PE, to study the feasibility of hydro power production.
Boeri's proposal was the only bid received by the town for the feasibility study, but the town's energy committee felt the proposal included exactly what the committee requested and recommended it to the board. It will be paid by money appropriated by town voters on two Town Meeting Day occasions, the most recent last year.
Energy committee member Robert Richards said the study by Boeri will get more specific and technical and will give the town a recommendation on whether to go forward with any potential hydro power projects. He said the final report will also give specific costs that indicate whether the projects are feasible for the town.
"We would have everything but final engineering," Richards said. "That is what we asked for. It will tell if we can do it or not."
According to the energy committee, Boeri will work in partnership with Ben Gordesky of Earthbound Systems in Burlington to conduct the study.
"The guy knows his stuff," Richards said.

If someone wrote the most technically challenging and (music) theoretically complex piece, but it sounded like the audio equivalent of feces, would you appreciate it?
I wouldn't, but Enslaved is actually a great band to listen to. I'd give 'em some time if I were you. Axioma Ethica Odini or Isa are probably good ones to start out with, or if you like raw, old school black metal, their first few albums are about as good as it gets.

When I'm 40 I'll probably listen to albums and not get that excited over it. I doubt much would bring to me rate something an 8. I like the feeling of liking music, a lot, if you know what I mean.
Written by Daniell on 28.09.2012 at 12:25
You people pay too much attention to other people's ratings.
What is a 10 to you and what is a 10 to me? Some people have given like five 10's to albums in their entire lives and treat those albums like untouchable shrines. And they seem to hint that they won't give another 10 again, or that it's nearly impossible.
On the other hand, I see a 10 as a sign that an album gave me lots of fun and pleasure. It's exceptionally memorable, it stands out among loads of albums in the genre/in a year/whatever. In other words, I feel that this is a perfect album for the time. I don't try to present a comprehensive outlook on metal in general and put a 10 in such a context, weighing the pros and cons and the ramifications of my decision. I'm not judging here, my point of view is as good as the next man's.
In other words, don't be so serious about ratings
Written by Nightfall on 28.09.2012 at 13:48
Agreed. A rating is only an opinion, and there's nothing written when it comes to opinion. The average rating might put things into perspective, but again, what matters is your personal view on it.

Accounting Minor
The Accounting minor at the Rady School of Management provides a high-quality education for students seeking a professional career in accounting. The minor meets the interests of those students who understand the importance of accounting to other career tracks such as finance, investment, project management, operations, entrepreneurship and general management. The Rady School's Accounting minor is designed to provide students with a strong understanding of accounting theory and practice. The program emphasizes International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) guidelines, the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) rules and the general international viewpoint, which are overtaking individual national standards such as the U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). For many students, this will be the first step in achieving a Certificate in Public Accounting (CPA).
Upon graduation, UC San Diego students with an Accounting minor will be prepared for positions with accounting functions in a plethora of commercial, non-profit and governmental organizations. Graduates pursuing careers not directly related to accounting will still encounter common accounting practices, and an Accounting minor will add valued knowledge to their initial employment.
Minor Requirements
The accounting minor consists of seven courses that cover the key accounting principles, processes and applications.
Required courses include two lower division courses and five upper division courses:
Lower Division Courses
- MGT 4 or ECON 4: Financial Accounting (It is stongly recommended to take MGT4/ ECON4: Financial Accounting before MGT5: Managerial Accounting.)
- MGT 5: Managerial Accounting
Upper Division Courses
- MGT 131A: Intermediate Accounting A
- MGT 131B: Intermediate Accounting B
- MGT 132: Auditing
- MGT 135: Federal Taxation — Companies
- MGT 136: Advanced Accounting
Optional Elective Courses:
All courses taken for the Accounting Minor must be taken for a letter grade. The electives MGT133 and MGT134 may be taken Pass/No Pass.
Students must earn at least a C- in each course used for the minor and must finish the minor with an overall minor GPA of 2.0.
Before declaring a minor, please contact your college advisor in order to ensure that you will not exceed the maximum unit limitation by pursuing a minor.
Lower division transfer credits for courses that are clearly equivalent in scope and content to lower division courses required for the Accounting minor will be accepted from regionally accredited United States institutions and from foreign institutions recognized by the Rady School of Management.
Minors are required to complete a minimum of five upper division accounting courses at the Rady School of Management. A student can petition to take a course for the minor outside of UCSD from regionally accredited United States institutions and from foreign institutions recognized by the Rady School of Management and get credit toward the minor if the course is clearly equivalent in scope and content. Students who take a required upper division accounting course outside of UCSD must take an elective (MGT133 or MGT134) as a "make up." No credit is given until the student enrolls in the make-up class. Note: UCSD Extension classes are professional level and certificate classes that are not part of undergraduate degree-seeking curriculum at UCSD. Extension classes appear as zero units on a UCSD academic history.
MGT45 Principles of Accounting does not count for accounting minor credit.
