If this is, in fact, the correct family, and franz is one of the sons, you
might be able to find a great deal by tracking him...
"How did Amy Lowell come across this Bagatelle before 1914? There is no
record of a performance in the United States at such an early date. We know,
however, that Lowell visited London in 1913 and again in 1914, just before
the outbreak of World War I. Bartók himself was not in England in those
years, but there was a German-born pianist living in London by the
name of *Franz
Liebich*, who made recent Hungarian music something of a specialty, as
Malcolm Gillies tells us in his book Bartók in Britain.2 Amy Lowell could
well have been introduced to Bartók's music at one of Liebich's recitals."

About the Book
Rebecca L Barnard took the series of images presented in this book with a Polaroid SX70 camera in 1992 or 1993. During the few minutes that the prints took to develop, she heated the print on a warm surface and used a tool, that enabled her to modify the texture and shape of the emerging figures so as to make the photographs look more like small paintings.

TOP STORY >> Ernie P. says well find out hes the best
Leader editor-in-chief
The Arkansas Lottery Commission is an embarrassment. Most Arkansans are furious over the salaries the lottery commission has lavished on the new director and his staff.
But lottery director Ernie Passailaigue told the Political Animals Club in Little Rock yesterday that hes going to make a lot of people happy when the lottery kicks off in October.
There will be a bunch of smiling people, Passailaigue said, talking about lottery players wholl get rich and thousands of kids wholl receive college scholarships.
As far as hes concerned, he and his two sidekicks from South Carolina are worth the $774,000-a-year salary were paying them.
Wait a minute: Sam Walton didnt pay himself that kind of a salary when he was building his empire. But its nothing compared to the Arkansas lottery.
Ernie P. has a pretty high opinion of himself. Hes making $324,000 a year, or $6,230 a week. No wonder hes smiling.
You get the impression if you offered him $1 million a year, hed take it because he knows hes that good.
A lot of people think Gov. Mike Beebe and the legislature should rein in the commission, reduce staff salaries and even start all over, even if it means putting off the lottery until next year.
Especially if it means delaying it a year or more. If you read newspaper editorials and drink coffee with friends, people will tell you this is Arkansas worst scandal since the highway commission shenanigans more than half a century ago.
We may be a bunch of rubes when it comes to lotteries, the argument goes, but the new director, his staff and the commission shouldnt have picked our pockets.
Everyones mad at them, so why not let them go? Give the staff a modest severance pay and let a couple of hungry young lawyers run the show for a fraction of what Ernie and Co. are paid.
But that wont happen. Ernies allies are dug in, and he can take the criticism. Hes an old pol from South Carolina, and some grumpy old editorial writers wont scare him away.
Passailaigue has lost a lot of credibility with Arkansans, and so has Lt. Gov. Bill Halter, the Manchurian candidate who helped create this monster. He made his name pushing for the lottery and hoped to succeed Beebe one day. But, really, both their reputations are tarnished.
Legislative oversight is needed more than ever. House Speaker Rob Wills (D-Conway) and Sen. Bob Johnson (D-Bigelow), the president pro tempore of the Senate, are part of the team that brought Ernie P. to Arkansas.
Now they say they want to approve all salaries above $80,000. Other legislators also want to put the brakes on this runaway train.
The governor has been concerned about the astronomical salaries, said state Sen. Bobby Glover, (D-Carlisle.) Apparently theyve given the director free rein. Hes said if they arent going to let him run it, hes ready to go back to South Carolina.
Glover said that while the lottery commission is independent of state government, Beebe, Johnson and Wills each made appointments to the commission.
Sen. Mary Anne Salmon (D-North Little Rock) says if she had it to do over again, shed set the top and bottom salaries. Salmon is on the legislative oversight committee for the lottery.
We probably should have emphasized that the pay scale has a bottom and a top and wed like to get most of the people in the middle, Salmon said.
But she said all three top hires had opportunities to go somewhere else. We needed them here, she insisted.
Salmon said the lottery will be a multimillion-dollar business and it is necessary to pay a competitive rate to get experienced people to come in and run it.
Were eager to get it off the ground and get some scholarships going, Salmon said.
Im pleased that the commission has said it wanted to approve any future salaries over $80,000.
Well, sure. Ernie P. called the Hogs yesterday at the Political Animals Club, and it looks hell stay a while. Hell also hire more Arkies, but for a lot less dough.
Pig Sooie.

My 14 month old has some inner lip skin between his two front teeth. (that little piece connecting upper to gums)
I've done a quick google search on it and it looks like some people have it clipped and others say it's normal, to insure enough space for the adult teeth. What's the deal?
My younger sister had that. It didn't bother her and no one did anything about it until she woke up one day when she was about 12? and it had swollen up. She ended up having a frenectomy and it has been normal since. So keep an eye on it, it might be fine or it might be an issue. I'm sure a pediatric dentist could give you some input. :)
Adina mama to B 4/06 and E 8/13/12 (on her due date!)
Our dentist called it a lip tie and said it can cause problems with teeth gapping later. There is a simple laser treatment to correct. Not sure what we will do yet but may correct it when our kids are older.
My 18mo has this. Her pediatrician, dentist and mama aren't worried.
Boys: 12/94, 1/99, 11/03, 6/11. Girls: 11/06, 10/09, 12/12
Ds has this. If I had noticed when he was smaller I would have looked at getting it clipped 'cause bfing has never been particularly comfortable for us & I think this is in large part because of it.
A friend's brother had it & it was clipped when he was a young teen because it was creating a gap in his teeth that couldn't be repaired with braces until it was removed. It's never caused him problems since.
We're going to go with a wait & see approach - unless it causes problems for ds we won't do anything.
Doula mama to dd (Oct '11) & ds (Oct '08) and expecting (Apr '17)
I had this, and all 3 of my children have it. Since it hasn't affected breastfeeding, I am not worried about it. When there permanent teeth start coming in I will have it clipped, it is a simple procedure but most oral surgeons wait till you are older to clip it. It can effect teeth spacing and my Mom had a large gap between her two front teeth because of hers. All of my siblings got theirs clipped as early teenagers and none of us have had an issue with it.
Someone I know just had a baby with something like this (tongue tie though) and although they used to clip them all by default apparently now in Canada they only do if it's causing a problem (ie with breastfeeding).
my experience in america is similar.
Boys: 12/94, 1/99, 11/03, 6/11. Girls: 11/06, 10/09, 12/12
My dd has a frenulum tie there. Her doctor said it can cause speech issues and a gap in her teeth, but until we notice a problem, we're just going to leave it. If we had noticed it earlier, I would have had it clipped because he had a lot of trouble nursing, but at this point, she seems fine.

I previously lost a lot of weight that has left a lot of cellulite on my thighs and buttocks that I can't seem to shift. Also the skin on my inner thighs has lost a lot of it's elasticity which is an issue for me. I wondered if any of this issues could be fixed at the same time as having BBL surgery.
Does Brazillian Butt Lift Help to Get Rid of Cellulite? (photo)
Doctor Answers 1
Does Brazilian Butt Lift Help to Get Rid of Cellulite?
In my experience, some dimpling of the buttocks can be improved with fat transfer. The skin of the inner thighs can be tightened with a thigh lift. I perform about 500 Brazilian buttlifts each year, and this procedure is the most surgeon dependent plastic surgery procedure. Find a plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of Brazilian buttlifts each year. Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results.

Comforting Thoughts - Poem by Jaymie Lanera
Hush little girl, don't cry.
The sun rises today.
Each blade of grass supports moisture pearls.
The lawns are cut and hedges trimmed,
and the birds sing melodies with the wind.
Hush little girl, don't cry.
Nothing resides within that you should fear,
as the remains lie peacefully here.
A ring of hollow sun
protects my head,
and not a single bug
disturbs my bed.
My heavenly existence
is my continuation.
Visitors often pass by.
They bring me flowers
and sometimes cry.
Regularly, your father comes;
Shakily he begins to sing me a song.
His voice is like the pulsate of bongo drums.
Bearing the tenderness in his heart,
his lyrics and composure rapidly fall apart.
The image alone of his vocal tone
can change the mood of anyone;
put him in the white spotlight and watch
how his height grows through his mouth alone.
But when he sits here by my stone,
he fills the flower cones with water
and digs down really deep,
asking the Lord for assurance
that I hear what he speaks.
Beside him, like you, I sit,
hoping my distant touch will help him feel
that my presence is consistently near.
My existence he rationally tries to permit.
Smiling in the face of a sulking mask
Which many would have failed to do;
He conquered a task
in the most challenging of times.
With clear skies so far from view,
he stood up straight blowing away the clouds;
he saw he had a little girl to raise;
and he did a great job with you.
My world brightens when you two are together.
Your chemical combination makes me explode
with happiness as I watch you grow.
Hush my child, do not cry.
Instead, smile up into the night's sky and know
that the brightest star smiling back at you,
The one that is the most high –
Know that it's me
always in eyes reach!

jaymie....this is just the second poem of yours i read and i have to say that this one is amazing as well....gives a conception from the other side....one that many probably dont give much thought to....i guess we think more about the feelings of those left behind than those who had to go....this is sad but peaceful, comforting....looking forward to reading your other poems...again...thanks for sharing....peace....

Coco's Pancakes
My Dad made pancakes, bacon and eggs every Sunday morning after church. He always saved some grease from the bacon to add to the pancake batter and he always whipped the egg whites. Dad's pancakes were bar-none the lightest and fluffiest pancakes I have ever tasted to this day…well with the exception of my own. This recipe is adapted from the standard Better Homes and Garden Cookbook that my Mom gave me for a wedding gift in 1967. It's the source of Dad's recipe too. I altered the ingredient proportions to make the recipe a "no brainer" for breakfast chefs at my restaurant in Tonga. You're going to love these pancakes!
The secret to making these lofty pancakes is in the whisking – don't over beat the batter! The batter should be a bit lumpy with clouds of egg whites poking through. Let the batter rest while the griddle heats up. When the griddle sissles, lightly spray or wipe it with oil. A drop of water should dance across the surface of the pan when its the right temperature. You can also use a non-stick skillet over medium high heat to bake these cakes. If the griddle or pan gets too hot or starts smoking, lower the heat please.
Pancakes should be light and fluffy, and uniformly golden brown on both sides. There's only 2 tsp of sugar in this recipe because you're going to serve them with maple syrup or fruit. At Coco's, we baked them with sliced bananas, apples and of-course blueberries. Although we paid $8 for 1/3 cup of imported blueberries, blueberry pancakes were still profitable and a good seller. We served them with a variety of tropical fruit syrups such as passionfruit or guava, and fresh sliced fruit like mango with a dollop of whipped cream.
- 2 cups flour
- 2 Tbsp baking powder
- 2 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup water
- 2 Tbsp oil
- 2 eggs, separated
- In a bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
- In a bowl, whisk together milk, water, oil, and egg yolks.
- Beat egg whites until soft peaks form.
- Pour wet mix into dry mix. Whisk to just moisten dry ingredients. Fold in egg whites.
- Preheat griddle, brush with oil.
- When griddle is hot, wipe off excess oil with paper towels.
- Pour batter onto griddle and cook until a few bubbles pop in the middle and the edges look dry. Flip and continue cooking until done. Lightly press tops, if they spring back, they're done.

Washington • Georgetown emphatically ended its Big East rivalry against Syracuse, wrapping up the regular-season title by holding the Orange to the lowest scoring output of their time in the conference.
On an afternoon that Otto Porter Jr. didn't make a field goal until the second half, No. 5 Georgetown used stifling defense to close its rivalry against No. 17 Syracuse with a 61-39 victory Saturday.
Porter finished with 10 points, but the national player of the year candidate contributed in plenty of other ways, as usual, with eight rebounds and seven assists.
Markel Starks scored 19 points, and freshman D'Vauntes Smith-Rivera had 15 points, five rebounds and five assists for the Hoyas (24-5, 14-4), who will be the No. 1 seed at the Big East tournament next week in New York.
Syracuse (23-8, 11-7), which had been hoping for a double-bye in the tournament, was led by Michael Carter-Williams' 17 points.
But the Orange shot only 32 percent from the field, including 1 for 11 on 3-point tries.
When the game ended, fans stormed the court even though the favorite won and it took a while to clear them away so Georgetown could have a brief ceremony celebrating its title in the last year of the league as it's currently constituted. The Hoyas have won 12 of their last 13 games, including two wins against Syracuse. Porter scored 33 in a victory at the Carrier Dome on Feb. 23. It's the Hoyas' first two-game sweep of a season series over the Orange since 2001-02.
This regular-season finale was the schools' 89th meeting overall (Syracuse leads 48-41) but the last time they will face each other as rivals in the Big East. Syracuse is heading to the Atlantic Coast Conference, and Georgetown is part of a group of seven schools splitting away to form a basketball-centric league that will get to keep the Big East name.

Americans are used to domestic mercantilism flying under liberal, or optimists', colors. According to this kind of mercantilism, government subsidizing of business should be done in cases where there are talented and hard-working entrepreneurs who lack capital, due to short-sightedness on the part of capital suppliers. It is claimed by this kind of mercantilist that decisions on whether or not to lend money to, or invest money in, a fledgling business are made by an insular group of capital suppliers. Because of their insularity, they screen out unconventional but promising business ideas. Because of their mental limitations and clubbiness, they make the start-up sector economically inefficient. Thus, the government can, and should, step in and add value by providing funds that will bring forth new businesses. This intervention, so the liberal mercantilist claims, will thus add wealth, which would have never have been created in the absence of such promotions.
The fallacies in this argument are well-known, even to some of its proponents. It is never proven why a surface appearance of "clubbiness" implies that economically irrational decisions are made. It is never proven that the supposedly "hidebound" professional capital suppliers constitute the only source of capital. It is never proven that the supposedly "exclusionary" criteria exclude anyone other than the drawer to the inside straight. And, it is certainly never proven that the government is any better than already-established professional capital suppliers at spotting successful entrepreneurs, at picking winners.
Thus, liberal mercantilists usually resort to moralizing when making the case for such programs. Capital suppliers are never rationally ignorant, according to such a mercantilist; no, they're benighted and bigoted. The would-be entrepreneur is always painted in the most favorable of lights. There's never a dreamer, let alone a fantasizer, in the lot. None of the worthy recipients are in any way vain. Their reach never exceeds their grasp — not a one of them. Their innate level-headedness is so taken for granted, that it is not often asked why these worthy pragmatists aren't resourceful enough to work their way around these supposedly iron constraints.
The fact is, we want to believe that the "kid with a big idea" is a magnate in the making. This is why the moralization usually works in business-friendly societies.
Also, a rebuttal of the claim that the government can pick 'em better than the private sector can, is a hard one to make because of the taboos surrounding democracy. We find it hard to admit that every successful politician stays a success because he or she fears losing. Doing so implies that a part of politics involves wiping the noses of people who would otherwise cause the incumbent to lose, including plain malcontents. Even if this categorization of democracy does imply that the democratic system is always sensitive to citizens' complaints, it is much more stirring to proclaim, "democracy's virtue is that it always nips tumult in the bud" than to admit, "democracy is the system where even the cur has his day." Never mind that the first argument implies the second, because curs cause tumult too.
Liberal-style mercantilism is obviously well-suited for a culture where entrepreneurship is generally known and valued. But what about a culture where it isn't, one where it is generally believed that entrepreneurship is full of sharpsters, crooks and the undeserving lucky, and where the true facts of entrepreneurship are known only to a generally despised few?
There is a kind of mercantilism that rings true in such a culture, only it's the more cynical sort — the toryish sort. It's a variant that is not often seen in America, but is somewhat popular in Europe. It claims that government intervention is necessary, not because government money is needed to help the worthy but struggling entrepreneur, but because government authority is needed. In order to succeed, the worthy start-off needs the stamp of the State on his or her new business in order for it to prosper and thrive.
In this kind of mercantilism, there is very little moralizing. What stands in its stead is cynicism, of an élitist kind. According to this kind of mercantilist, the general public is too besotted by greed and freeloading to understand what it takes to succeed in business, let alone to identify with any business success. Patience, calculation and foresight are not for them; nor is the broader view encompassed by value-for-value. The immediacy of win-lose; that is all they understand.
Because of this widespread surliness, it is further asserted, there is only one way for a worthy would-be entrepreneur to succeed in any kind of business: the State must step in. With the State in his or her corner, this deserving person can achieve the wealth that he or she merits. The authority of the State will make the wolves turn tail.
This argument may seem to be more realistic, as it is not full of roses, sunshine and boosterism. Nevertheless, it is just as unrealistic as the more optimistic kind of mercantilism, for broadly the same reasons.
If a person is generally disliked, then why would he or she have a chance at succeeding in business at all? It may seem flinty-hearted to bring this point up, but a person who succeeds in ticking off the locals, at least presumably, could tick off the customer base as well. Getting a business up and thriving is hard enough; how much harder is it for someone who has already acquired a thriving base of anti-customers? Why would it be reasonable to assume that the perhaps mythical customer in the distant city will believe the new businessman and not the people who knew him or her 'way back when?
When both cases are examined, they turn out to be variants of the same complaint: only the State has the inner excellence to see the true worth of my hot idea! Only the State can rescue me from the greed and gouging of the benighted [bankers and investors/yokels and freeloaders] who would otherwise stifle my most promising plan!
It doesn't take much street smarts to see that the above double plaint amounts to this secret hope: only the State can force people to see things my way. In the first case, the State makes the capital market bend to the petitioner's will (through the tax system); in the second case, the State makes the locals do so (through an appeal to patriotism).
There's another commonality, which shows who really benefits from State mercantilism — the inflexible. The first plea can be deflated by the question, "why can't you show around a prototype you can afford to put together, at least to test whether or not the big boys will blow you out of the water if you go for it?" The second plea can be deflated by the question, "if the locals are so bad, then why aren't you at least making plans to move to a place where the locals are more business-minded?" The commonality is: "if you face an insurmountable obstacle, why aren't you trying to go around it?"
Mercantilism is mercantilism, whether it be packaged as humane or hard-headed. Interventions are interventions, regardless of the justification for one of them. State force is State force, whether or not you sympathize with or loathe whomever is at the wrong end of the club.

CLEARWATER, FL. – A full week of softball in Florida has come to an end, as the University of Pennsylvania softball team played its final game over spring break on Friday morning. The Quakers took on the national team from the Netherlands and fell, 3-2, but still hold a 4-7 record as it was an exhibition game. The Red and Blue notched four consecutive wins over Colgate, Seton Hall, Quinnipiac, and Providence.
Penn began the season in Florida, weeks behind many institutions around the country, and used it as preparation for the Ivy season. The young squad, consisting of 10 freshmen, played in 11 contests, including games against three Big East teams and two from the American Athletic Conference.
In the first game of the UCF Spring Fling against Troy, the Quakers found themselves behind 4-0 but never gave up. Going into the bottom of the seventh, the Red and Blue had one final chance as Troy held the lead, 4-3. With one out, freshman Leah Allen approached the plate. Allen struck out swinging but sped down to line and reached first on a throwing error and continued rounding the bases until she scored the tying run. Penn pushed the game to 10 innings, but the Red and Blue couldn't respond as the Trojans scored two. Junior Alexis Borden pitched all ten innings, totaling 15 strikeouts.
Jumping out to an early 4-0 lead and scoring seven more runs in the top of the sixth, the Quakers captured their first win against Colgate, ending the game early, 11-1. The first home run of the season was hit by sophomore Lauren Li to start the second inning.
The Red and Blue went on to win the next three games, with the last being another come from behind win.
Playing in the USF Under Armour Showcase at the USF Softball Complex, Providence came hot out of the gate, scoring five runs in the bottom of the first and then one in the second, to put Penn behind, 6-0.Each team added an additional run, as the Quakers came up to bat in the bottom of the fifth, trailing 7-1. With two runs in and two outs, Allen stepped up to the plate with bases loaded. Waiting for the perfect pitch, Allen hit a grand slam out past left field and tied the game at seven apiece.
Unable to make anything happen, the Friars took the field once again to start the bottom of the sixth. With one out and no one on, freshman Alexis Sargent came up to the plate and hit a bomb out of the park over right center, clearing at least 220 ft. It was the hit that won the game, as Providence was stifled by the Red and Blue defense in the top of the seventh.
A total of six home runs were recorded by the Quakers over the course of the trip. Junior Sydney Turchin hit her first career homer in the fifth inning against Quinnipiac and Allen hit a total of three, all of which were against members of the Big East.
After the return home, Penn will prepare for a doubleheader against Lehigh on Wednesday at 3 p.m.

The exhibition chain has 45 theaters with 230 screens in the tri-state area around New York City, and includes Manhattan's famed Ziegfield Theater. But "it is not a strategic asset for us," Cablevision CFO Gregg Siebert told analysts this morning. "Clearview is not core by any stretch of the imagination." He says that Cablevision expects to have a "robust process" as it explores strategic options — typically the code word for putting a property up for sale. "There are others who can do more with that asset." But he added that the company is "still in the early stages" of the process. The cable company bought Clearview in 1998. But Cablevision has other fish to fry now as it struggles to grow in the face of tough competition from Verizon and AT&T for video, broadband, and phone customers.
Cablevision Begins To Shop Clearview Cinemas Chain
8 Comments
Very mismanaanaged circuit. No growth in the past six years and acted as if for sale for the past four years. Hopefully someone will purchase and use its asets and build on them.
This would be unfortunate, I have held onto my triple-play plan from Cablevision exclusively to get free movies on Tuesdays and cheaper movies at Ziegfeld…I just hope any potential sale will not hurt or affect Ziegfeld :-
This is terrible news. The free Clearview movie tickets are the only reason I haven't switched to another cable provider.
Maybe if they were managed better then they wouldnt have this problem. Clearview has the worst upper management department in my opinion. Not to mention I need to shower after sitting in one of those seats.
Seeing as Cablevision has a deep footprint in the greater NYC area, you'd think they could eke out some revenue synergies with lobby and on-screen advertising in the theaters. Another platform to keep them as a dominant local player in one of the world's biggest media markets. Then again, they're probably doing something like this already and have deemed it not worth the effort. I'm just some Captain Obvious posting on a website. *sigh*
It would be cool if Reading (which owns CitiCinemas and Angelika) purchased the chain. NYC needs another chain to compete with AMC and Regal and offer up some good deals.
Bow-Tie Theatrs out of Richfield CT or Digiplex Destinations are the two most likely theatre companies that would fit with the theatres that Clearview operates. My vote would be for Digiplex since the managment ot that company is top-notch.
Good luck to Cablevision trying to sell off this shipwreck. Cablevision shrunk Clearview from a small but modest successful neighborhood chain under Bud Mayo's regime to a walking advertisement for Cablevision. It all went to hell when some nitwit in Corporate decided it would be a great idea to give away the movies for free on Tuesday night to Cablevision customers. All it did was destroy the grosses on Friday – Sunday, which is the heart of the theater box office, to create these grossly inflated Tuesday numbers. But the punchline being, Cablevision isn't making a nickel off of it. In fact, they are losing money because they have to still pay the 55% aggregates to the studios based on the ticket price. And they aren't making it back on the concession stands either. Any Clearview employee will tell you that no one buys candy on Tuesday nights. Why? Because if you are going to give movies away, all you are going to do is bring in people who won't spend a dime at your concession stand to begin with. They have left zero value to it. What happens when new ownership immediately takes away that Free Tuesday? Customers are going to scream and get pissed off and disappear. The only shot Cablevision might have in selling it off is in pieces. Get some small player to buy the NYC Theaters and then sell off the neighborhood theaters piece by piece to independent owners who can run it properly.

Life was awfully good for the Uptons on this Saturday night in Chesapeake, Va.
Justin Upton, 18, who had just received a $6.1 million bonus with the Diamondbacks, was showing off his new sport-utility vehicle to 21-year-old Devil Rays shortstop B.J. Upton.
They were on the road to realizing a lifelong dream. They're already the first brothers in baseball history to be drafted first (Justin in 2005) and second (B.J. in 2002) in the amateur draft, signing for a total of $10.7 million. One day they would love to play together in an All-Star Game or even on the same major league team.
"But I'd be the one staying at short," says B.J., who bought a Cadillac Escalade with his first bonus check. "Justin would have to move."
Justin, also a shortstop, says: "I'd move for him, but only because I have more power. He'd be watching all of my homers."
B.J. says, "Whatever, just start paying me back all of the money you owe me, will ya?"
Justin is a 6-2, 205-pound extrovert, while B.J., 6-4 and 195 pounds, is much more reserved. But they have no idea what they'd do without each other. They have always been best friends. Big brother has always watched out for little brother.
Together, the Uptons could change the face of baseball. They can provide hope to the black youth of America. While the African-American population dwindles in the major leagues, the Uptons have made a lot of money playing baseball rather than chasing a dream of an NFL or NBA career.
"Black kids grow up not believing we can play baseball," says Manny Upton, B.J. and Justin's father. "We'd go to AAU (baseball) tournaments, and there might be only one or two black kids playing. Well, hopefully with all of the publicity B.J and Justin are getting, that will change.
"It's a wonderful sport. A beautiful sport. And when your playing career is over, you can still get up in the morning and walk without pain. You don't want to hurt like I hurt."
Manny, 48, a mortgage lender who also has been a basketball referee the last 15 years in the Atlantic Coast Conference and worked three NCAA tournaments, was a star athlete in Virginia. He attended Norfolk State on a football scholarship. Yet, to this day, he wakes up and feels the pain in his shoulders and knees from playing wide receiver. He didn't want his sons to suffer the same fate.
So they started playing baseball almost at the time they could walk. They played basketball and football, too, and B.J. played soccer, but their true love was always baseball.
When they weren't playing ball, they were watching it. The Yankees were their favorite team. Don Mattingly was their hero. When he retired, it was Derek Jeter.
The Uptons dreamed they could become the next Jeter, each playing shortstop.
B.J., who hit .645 while throwing two no-hitters over two years at Greenbrier Christian Academy in Chesapeake, bypassed a scholarship to play baseball and football at Florida State to sign for $4.6 million with the Devil Rays.
Justin quit football after his sophomore season at Chesapeake's Great Bridge High and soon showed baseball skills that surpassed his brother's.
"We noticed at an early age that they were more advanced than the other kids," says their mother, Yvonne Upton, who retired last fall after 25 years as a junior high and high school health and physical education teacher. "It was never a thing that we looked at their talent and thought they could make money in this game.
"People ask us, 'Did you ever think anything like this could happen?' We say, 'Nah.'
"It was more of a thing like, hey, if they could get a college scholarship, we'd be more than happy. As parents, you just want your kids to go to school and get an education, not become a professional ballplayer.
"Manny and I will just sit in the house watching a game, look at each other and say, 'Can you believe this?' It still hasn't sunk in yet. It's such a blessing."
Although the Uptons are financially secure for life, the family has no plans to move. The boys still will have their own bedrooms. Manny will keep working two jobs.
"I think Manny has too much pride to quit working," Yvonne says. "He would never want to rely on his sons. Besides, he has so much energy, he wouldn't know what to do with himself."
The biggest change in the family's life will be the travel. The Uptons' SUV will travel to see B.J., who probably will start next season at Triple-A Durham, and Justin, who's scheduled to begin 2006 at low-A South Bend.
"I think my parents will be seeing Justin more than me now just because he's 18," B.J. says. "I'm so proud of him. There won't be a day that goes by where I don't talk to him, talking some trash back and forth.
"It's a tough road. Believe me, it's no cakewalk to the majors. It's a big change to go from playing 30 high school games a year to 144 (in Triple-A). It takes an awful lot of hard work. Both of my parents were hard workers and pounded that work ethic into us. There are no shortcuts to success."
Scouts widely predict the Uptons will become All-Star players.
"Growing up, my parents always wanted us to be role models," B.J. says. "Well, maybe we can set the table for the young black kids that look up to us and watch us."

Mobile-device buyers are hot as ever for Android, but developers are getting more frustrated and less interested, according to an IDC survey of mindshare among mobile developers.
The key to their frustration is the number and inconsistent variety of devices running Android, which makes it difficult for software developers to build a single app that works well on all of them.
Concern about Android caused interest in it to plateau for the first time, but is only third on the list of fragmentation concerns, behind the increasing number of development languages required to develop mobile apps for a variety of devices, and the number of operating systems with significant amounts of market share, according to Appcelerator's analysis.
The survey, sponsored and assisted by dev-tool maker Appcelerator shows the 2,700 developers using Appcelerator tools to build apps for a variety of mobile devices are becoming increasingly frustrated at fragmentation of both the Android OS and market for it.
Devices running Android could have a touchscreen and manual buttons, only a touchscreen, WiFi, no WiFi, a small, low-res screen, a large high-res screen, a tablet screen with or without manual buttons and a range of processors, storage methods, acceleration sensors, location capabilities and other differences that could make one apps sing and another clunk.
Google recently announced it would delay releasing the tablet-specific Honeycomb version of Android to help consolidate form factors and software requirements.
It has also reportedly tightened up requirements on both phone makers and developers to try to keep all Android devices in a single market, rather than fragmenting into subcategories that would be more difficult for Google to manage and for developers to target.
Despite the chafing, two thirds of developers said there is virtually no chance OSes or hardware from Microsoft, RIM, HP or Nokia would become attractive enough to overtake Android as the No. 2 mobile dev platform, let alone the untouchable Apple iOS.
Ninety-one percent of Appcelerator developers are "very interested' in developing for iPhone and 86 percent are aiming for the iPad.
Interest in Android dropped from 87 percent to 85 percent since the last quarterly survey; interest in Android tablets fell three percentage points, to 71 percent, after rising 12 percentage points two quarters ago.
Only 52 percent are interested in developing for the Samsung Galaxy Tab, the highest-rated individually named Android tablet in the survey.
Conclusion? Developers don't like building apps for half a dozen OSes, half a million form factors and a million-and-a-half apps stores all at the same time. The mobile market is the best game in town right now, though, and keeping up with all the pieces is the price for getting in the game.
Don't expect them to pay it forever. Look for some consolidation – a lot of consolidation – in the number of developers trying to hit more than one or two operating systems, and don't expect a year from now that every Android app will work on every Android device.
A couple of categories each of smartphone and tablet would still fragment the market, but would set expectations more effectively for both developers and customers.

NYT 's Bumiller purported to read Miers's mind
Research ››› ››› MARCIA KUNTZ
In an October 4 article on President Bush's nomination of Harriet Miers to the Supreme Court, New York Times reporter Elisabeth Bumiller recounted Miers's statement following Bush's announcement, writing:
[Miers] added, in a signal to conservatives, that she would not try to inject policy into her rulings. "If confirmed," she said, "I recognize that I will have a tremendous responsibility to keep our judicial system strong, and to help ensure that the courts meet their obligations to strictly apply the laws and the Constitution."
Perhaps Miers did intend her assertion as "a signal to conservatives." But if Bumiller knows for a fact that that was Miers's intention, she didn't tell readers how she came to know that. More likely, Bumiller was presuming that was Miers's intention because someone who "strictly appl[ies] the laws and the Constitution" is what conservatives claim to want in a judge, without being asked by the media to explain what they mean -- or without ever having to explain why, by at least one measure, those justices whom conservatives hold in highest esteem are also among the most "activist" on the court.
And, if Bumiller was merely inferring Miers's intention, why would she assume that it is conservatives who place a higher premium on a justice who won't "inject policy into her rulings"? After all, as the Times' David D. Kirkpatrick reported in a separate October 4 article, it was Miers's supporters who attempted to reassure conservatives of Miers's "pro-life" bona fides by noting that she contributed to anti-abortion groups and that she spearheaded an effort to get the American Bar Association to retract its official statement in support of abortion rights. And, reported Kirpatrick, Texas Supreme Court Justice Nathan Hecht, a friend of Miers, assured conservatives in a conference call after the announcement that Miers "personally opposed abortion and had once attended 'pro-life' events with him." In noting those actions by Miers, wasn't it her supporters who were suggesting that she would, in fact, inject her personal views opposing abortion rights into her decision-making? Shouldn't it be abortion rights advocates, then, who wouldn't want Miers "to inject policy into her rulings"? Wouldn't it be abortion rights advocates who would want someone who recognizes a "responsibility to keep our judicial system strong," presumably a nod to proponents of stare decisis and respect for long-standing precedent like Roe v. Wade?

FLORENCE---Florence County natives Darla Moore and James Fields, representing the Palmetto Institute, will be guest speakers for a forum Thursday, Nov. 21, at Francis Marion University.
Sponsored by the FMU Master's of Business Administration Alumni Chapter, the presentation will be at 8 p.m. in the Cauthen Educational Media Center Auditorium. The presentation will be open to the public.
The topic for the presentation is "Strategies for Economic Development in South Carolina and the Pee Dee."
Moore, a native and resident of Lake City, is a partner and executive vice president of Rainwater, Inc., one of the largest private investment firms in the U.S. She is a University of South Carolina graduate with a master's in business administration from George Washington University.
She is the chairwoman of the Palmetto Institute, an economic research group formed about a year ago to establish "a business, political, social and educational environment" that increases the per capita income of South Carolina. Members of the Palmetto Institute include South Carolina business, civic and academic leaders, including Don Herriott, president and general manager of Roche Carolina, Inc.
Fields is the executive director of the Palmetto Institute that recently released a report about the state of the South Carolina economy and highlighting major areas the state needs to improve. Fields was born in Florence and is a graduate of Clemson University and the USC Law School. He served as the attorney of the Senate Judiciary Committee and clerk of the Senate in Columbia from the mid-1980s until the mid-1990s, before joining the McNair Law Firm.
M. Barry O'Brien, dean of FMU's School of Business, said the presentation at FMU is "timely and important because of concerns about South Carolina's economy." He also said that one of the objectives of the School of Business is "to sponsor and conduct service activities that enhance the community's economic and industrial development."
O'Brien said that events such as this "establish our graduates and the School of Business as participants in economic development in the Pee Dee region." Annie Brown is chair of FMU's M.B.A. Alumni Chapter. There are nearly 150 students who've earned graduate degrees in business from FMU.
For more information about the FMU forum, contact the FMU School of Business, phone 843-661-1419. For more information about the Palmetto Institute, visit its web site at www.palmettoinstitute.org.

Students cry as fire destroys HSC works
The Sun-Herald
Page Tools
Students who had been celebrating their last trial Higher School Certificate exam wept as they watched their school being destroyed in a multimillion-dollar fire believed to have been deliberately lit.
Their major HSC art and design works, which had taken hundreds of hours to complete on canvas and in wood and metal, also went up in the fire at Kelso High School near Bathurst. One student lost 30 art works in the fire.
More than 100 firefighters called in from as far away the Blue Mountains and Sydney fought for four hours to control the blaze.
Police yesterday declared the smouldering site a crime scene and investigators were trying to find the cause of the fire, which students believed started somewhere near the gymnasium at about 8.30pm on Friday.
The Education Department is looking at ways to house the 730 students, particularly those doing the HSC.
School captain Alex Hausfeld was still in tears yesterday. She lost her major art work done in metal.
She said all that remained were memories of the years spent at Kelso High.
"We had our last pretrial exam Friday morning and we were celebrating yesterday until we heard the school was on fire," she said. "We came here and just stood and cried. We watched the flames and the big fireballs until about 11.30pm."
Ms Hausfeld said it looked like the gymnasium was on fire first but the flames were everywhere.
"We were told somebody started it," she said. "We can't imagine why they'd do something like that."
School leadership team member Amanda George said watching her friends cry was devastating.
"You go to school five days a week and it becomes like a second home," she said. "Rumours are going around that someone started it but I'm hoping it was an accident, like a heater left on or something, because I don't know how they could do a thing like that to our school."
Regional director for education Carole McDiarmid said:
"We are working through strategies to look after our students and some good news was that all of the school's data and assessment material has been stored off-site, so we still have that.
"The Board of Studies is coming here [tomorrow] to work with the students over the loss of their major pieces; there will be no disadvantage to them.
"Hallmark programs of Kelso High, the Rock Eisteddfod and Circus Surreal, will still go on because costumes were saved."

Down 2-0 early, the Wright State baseball team rallied to take the lead in the fifth and then broke a 3-3 tie with two in the ninth for a 5-4 win at #14 Virginia Saturday night.
The Cavaliers scored twice in the first for the early advantage and it stayed that way until WSU went in front with three in the fifth. Zach Tanner led off with a hit to center and, one out later, Ryan Ashe singled through the left side of the infield.
That brought Justin Kopale to the plate and the junior shortstop delivered as he drove a full-count pitch over the fence in left for a three-run home run, his first of the season and the first by a Raider in 2012.
Virginia, though, tallied an unearned run in its half of the fifth to tie it and it stayed that way until Wright State broke the deadlock with a pair in the ninth. Jake Hibberd started the rally with a hit and after Tristan Moore walked, a Tanner bunt moved both runners up. Garrett Gray then doubled to left center to plate both Hibberd and Moore and make it 5-3.
The Cavaliers attempted a comeback in the bottom of the ninth after the first two batters were retired as a walk, single, hit by pitch and another single produced a run, but Michael Schum retired the next batter on a ground out for his first save of the year.
Jordan Marker (2-0) earned the win with an inning of scoreless relief, striking out three. Offensively, Hibberd and Corey Davis led the way with two hits each.
Wright State (2-6) wraps up play in the Virginia Tournament Sunday with an 11:00 contest against Seton Hall.

Kuwait is an Islamic constitutional monarchy located at the northwestern tip of the Persian Gulf. For many years, Kuwait was a small emirate whose economy centered on sea trade, with special emphasis on pearl exports. In the 1940's, however, oil was discovered under Kuwait and with it came economic prosperity and rapid growth. Today, Kuwaiti citizens enjoy one of the highest standards of living in the world. Along with affluence has come a rapid increase in the population, both of expatriate workers as well as Kuwaiti citizens.
Presently, over fifty different (non-Kuwaiti) Protestant congregations and language groups meet weekly for worship. There is substantial freedom to worship, and little government-directed persecution of God's people. However, persecution does occur in the form of harassment of converts from Islam by their families. Expatriate Christians may be expelled for inappropriate overt witness to locals, and national Christians are not allowed to freely profess their faith and worship their Savior.
"We always remind those who want to convert to Islam that they enter through a door, but that there is no way out," A Kuwaiti jurist commented in 1996.
The Kuwaiti court, in the 1996 case of Hussein 'Ali Qambar, made it clear that in its understanding there is a difference between religious freedom and the freedom to convert from Islam to another faith. This fact goes against the Western notion of religious freedom but dictates the way that many Islamic-based governments interpret their law.
Kuwait's ranking of number 39 on the Open Doors World Watch List reflects this legal interpretation. The freedom to worship Christ is allowed. The freedom to convert peacefully from Islam is not.

Patrolling Baghdad: A Military Police Company and the War in Iraq
by Mark R. Depue

References to this work on external resources.
Wikipedia in English
Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0700614982, Hardcover)For the 160 national guardsmen from America's heartland, Baghdad was more than just a long way from home. It also confronted the 233rd Military Police Company with America's most difficult challenge in Iraq: establishing security in a nation rife with religious, tribal, and sectarian conflict and violence.
The first MP company assigned to patrol the heart of Baghdad, the 233rd (from Springfield, Illinois) was a key part of the American occupation forces from April 2003 to April 2004. Charged with helping rebuild the city's police force-not just reopening stations but training a new force to replace its corrupt and hated predecessors-these men and women waged a "military police war" while witnessing all of the larger conflict's central themes, from the shortcoming of prewar planning to ongoing security problems, from media coverage to humanitarian efforts.
DePue recounts the 233rd's actions in the streets and alleyways of Baghdad and the inevitable clash of cultures, along with lootings, shootings, roadside and police station bombings, and the inevitable bureaucratic bumbling. Here are the horrors of firefights and summary executions and the drama of the UN bombing. Here too is the untold side of the war, as these volunteers on their own initiative reopened Baghdad schools and took under their wing a Catholic orphanage for handicapped children located in the heart of the city.
Based on extensive interviews with the unit's members and others associated with their mission, DePue's eye-opening account also covers what it was like for the 26 women of the unit, how a romance blossomed between two MPs, and how support groups back home-with the help of the Internet-helped families cope with worry over loved ones.
The 233rd's story is not only deeply compelling, it is also central to our understanding of one of the most momentous problems of our day and helps us understand what went wrong-and what went right-during that crucial first year. As one of a frustrating war's few success stories, it epitomizes the work of America's citizen-soldiers and attests to the vastly expanded role that guardsmen and reservists now play in our nation's defense.
This book is part of the Modern War Studies series.

Dear World,
With the Christmas movie season coming up, I have the 'difficult' job of telling you about one of the most anticipated movies this year: Django Unchained.
Director: Quentin Tarantino
Starring: Jamie Foxx, Don Johnson, Kerri Washington, Leonardo DiCaprio and Samuel L. Jackson
Synopsis: Set in the South two years before the Civil War, Django is a slave whose brutal history with his former owners lands him face-to-face with German-born bounty hunter Dr. King Schultz. Schultz is on the trail of the murderous Brittle brothers, and only Django can lead him to his bounty. The unorthodox Schultz acquires Django with a promise to free him upon the capture of the Brittles – dead or alive.
Success leads Schultz to free Django, though the two men choose not to go their separate ways. Instead, Schultz seeks out the South's most wanted criminals with Django by his side. Honing vital hunting skills, Django remains focused on one goal: finding and rescuing Broomhilda, the wife he lost to the slave trade long ago.
Rated R
So...does Django live up to the hype or not?
In short, yes. Yes it does.
As a fan of Quentin Tarantino films, there are certain things that you can expect in Quentin films: bloody deaths, humor, and even more bloody deaths. If this is your first time watching a Quentin film, don't be alarmed. All the dramatic blood splatter is common fare. Now, with a touchy subject like slavery, I entered into the theater with a bit of hesitation. It's not easy watching slavery on the big screen, for anyone. But Quentin does an EXCELLENT job of mixing his touches of history and the reality of slavery with an action packed, hilarious story. Personally, I think there were people near me who were a bit uncomfortable with the subject matter but after a while Quentin reminds you that this is a story about a man fighting to be reunited with his wife. And anyone would do the same in his shoes. And Jamie Foxx does a HELL of a job as Django. Originally Will Smith was slated to star in the film but due to a scheduling conflict the job went to Jamie. And I really believe that THAT was meant to be.
The number of cameos in this film is ridiculous. If you are a Quentin fan, you'll enjoy picking out the faces of those who's appeared in his previous films throughout the movie. And folks...don't be afraid to laugh during this film. Probably one of the funniest scenes in the film deals with the KKK and when I tell you the entire theater was damn near rolling on the floor laughing...just too awesome for words.
So basically, go see this movie. Let go of any anger over the subject matter. Don't flinch at the N-word being used abundantly throughout the film. Drama, humor and a damn fine Western movie awaits you. Django Unchained hits the theaters on December 25th.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 5/9/2013 (1416 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
FORMER NFLer Aaron Rouse wasn't the only fresh face at Bombers practice on Thursday.
The Blue Bombers introduced new offensive lineman Colt Schulte, too. Only 23, Schulte returned home to work in his family's property management business after graduating from Missouri Western earlier this year, but always hoped to get a shot at pro football.
So when Bombers brass called him "out of the blue" a couple of weeks ago, Schulte jumped at the chance. "I'm just trying to soak it all in and do the best I can," the 6-6, 296-pound tackle said, adding that his first reps in Blue and Gold went well.
"I'm just knocking some of the rust off, and some of the nerves, and I got pretty comfortable towards the end of practice."
-- -- --
After last week's tilt, Bombers head coach Tim Burke didn't detect any glaring Achilles heel in Saskatchewan's big green juggernaut.
The Riders are the most "solid" team in the league, he said, along with Calgary; pivot Darian Durant and a "superior" offensive line help.
"Defensively, they're pretty good all across the board," he added. "They're a team that I don't know if you'd say 'they've got this great player.' They're just all good CFL football players."
-- -- --
So, if Burke had to name an MVP right now, who would he pick? "Hmmm," Burke pondered. "That's a hard one."
Well, it would be when a team is 1-8, but there are a few members on the squad the coach thinks have been earning their keep.
Slotback Cory Watson has played well, Burke said. So have defensive end Alex Hall and nickelback Desia Dunn.
-- -- --
Don't expect many personnel changes for Sunday's game. One offensive line tweak: Coaches have been working Paul Swiston at tackle and Shannon Boatman at guard, and like what they see. Other than that, expect business as usual on the depth chart.

Speaking to Wrestling101.com, Chavo Guerrero commented on whether people in WWE took notice of TNA Wrestling during his tenure with the sports-entertainment organization.
"At first it wasn't, TNA was seen as just coming up in the business but then little by little they started to pick up more momentum and at this point in time I think TNA has the most momentum we have ever had," said Guerrero. "If you look at our roster compared to anybodies, WWE's, New Japan, Ring of Honor, I think we have the best roster in the world right now."
Having worked for Eric Bischoff, Vince McMahon and Dixie Carter, Guerrero compared the three bosses in terms of their similarities and differences.
"First of all they are all great businessmen and women, they are at the head of companies because being a business person you have to be able to make those hard decisions and make good decisions, so that's the similarities," Guerrero said. "Differences, to me you have Vince McMahon who rules with fear, you better watch out or he's going to cut your head off. Dixie Carter she rules with love and she is happy to have you on her roster and when you do well she lets you know about it. Eric Bischoff, he was kind of in the middle, sometimes he was very mean and wanted to bite your head off and other times you would go out for a beer with the guy."
After only competing for two years, Chavo Guerrero received his first break with World Championship Wrestling in 1996. He recalls his time with the company.
"Wrestling in WCW was awesome because I was so young and it was a great mix of wrestlers. We had older wrestlers that had been around since my dads time like Arn Anderson and Paul Orndorff then we had the younger generation wrestlers which included guys like William Regal and Fit Finlay, then there were the likes of Eddie, Dean Malenko and Chris Benoit, and even younger guys like Rey Mysterio and Chris Jericho," said Guerrero.
"There was such a big mix of people that we really learned all different styles from all different eras. Every era of wrestling changes, it is always evolving, so we learnt so many different things and that's what I took away with me the most from my time in WCW, it was just like going to school, I was at the Harvard for wrestling."
Guerrero also recalls being part of the Cruiserweight division in WCW, the final episode of WCW Monday Nitro, joining WWE, winning the WWE Tag Team Championship with Eddie Guerrero, working alongside Vickie Guerrero, comparisons of WCW to TNA Wrestling, and more. The full interview is available here.
WCW did have the best roster at the time (1996). Wrestlers of all types including international stars (Mexican/Japanese). I hope TNA becomes a major player so we can experience another wrestling war.
true true. a war makes both organizations push the envelope to secure the viewers.
I think wwe has gotten complacent over the past few years not worrying about competition ( it has weakened the product)
WHAT… Yes I'm going to agree with a TNA Fan, the WWE bites now because they didn't have any compation for the longest time. Then enters upstart TNA I can't believe it's been ten years, however if the WWE claims that TNA doesn't matter to them, then I pose the question why do you have people watching TNA product and Why are you duplicating there material? The WWE needs to step there game up or on about two or three years TNA at the rate they are growing will equal or surpass the WWE. An I'm a WWE fan, so lets GO WWE!
Rival WWE in 3 years? You cant be serious. They wont do it in another 10 years let alone 3
tna need to really go back to the old days, not so much the six side ring, im over that. im just talking about what they use too do, fest or fire PPV or that one tournament they use to do with all different International groups. things like that made me love tna. im not saying it WWE. but it to much like wwe. i love when we use to be so different. were not like that anymore. but hey gut check and open fight night works for me
The X-Cup, Steel Asylum and Feast or Fired were matches that made TNA different and exciting at the same time.
TNA was great in the old days. BUT that said your majority of wrestling fans does not care for high flying action or dragongate usa would be the number one company in the world. A company has to thrive on not just wrestling but storylines and mic work as well. ROH is barely noticed and TNA would of been the same if they stayed the way they did.
