Wandy, bullpen combine to blank Cubs on two hits
Veteran lefty whiffs six in 6 2/3 innings; McCutchen, Marte notch RBIs
PITTSBURGH -- It was a night pitchers should have had to pay their way into the park, for the privilege of throwing the rock at hitters swinging bats with iced hands.
Making the most of that privilege, Pirates lefty Wandy Rodriguez fired 6 2/3 innings of two-hit ball Wednesday night to edge mound foe Edwin Jackson and his Cubs, 3-0, in front of 27,667 at PNC Park.
Not much offense in this game -- eight hits between the two teams -- but Cubs manager Dale Sveum called the cold an equal-opportunity hardship.
"The pitchers are at a disadvantage sometimes, too, trying to get a feel for the ball and all that, but Wandy obviously had a pretty good feel," Sveum said.
Rodriguez had two big accomplices: Tony Watson, who icily got out of the bases-loaded situation he inherited in the seventh, and Jason Grilli, who debuted as the Bucs' closer in spotless style.
"When you're the closer, this is what happens," said Grilli, surveying the media mob around him. "You get lots of questions and have to come up with lots of answers. But I just get the baton at the end of a relay; Wandy and Watson made great pitches to put us in a great situation to win."
There are Eight Wonders of the World, and one Wandy of the World Baseball Classic. The left-hander worked in wondrous fashion on this challenging night, with a game-time temperature of 35 degrees, securing the Pirates' first win of the season by picking up right where he had left off last month for the champion Dominican Republic (allowing five hits and a run in 9 1/3 innings).
"I started to work earlier this year because of the Classic, and as a result, I do feel stronger," said Rodriguez, ordinarily a very tough April pitcher anyway.
Alberto Gonzalez led off the Cubs' third with a single, and Rodriguez's response was to retire the next 12. That string ended when he clipped Anthony Rizzo with a pitch leading off the seventh, the beginning of a hairy threat to the 2-0 lead the Bucs had taken in the fourth.
Alfonso Soriano followed with the second, and final, hit off Rodriguez, who got one out before also plunking Welington Castillo to load the bases. Then ensued an epic 10-pitch battle with Brent Lillibridge. It ended when Rodriguez froze Lillibridge -- not a difficult thing to do this night -- with a back-door 3-and-2 curve for a called third strike.
"That was a pro's pitch," saluted manager Clint Hurdle. "A young guy's not going to throw that pitch. Maybe for a chase. But not for a strike."
"I couldn't locate my fastball," said Rodriguez, who got a mound visit from catcher Russell Martin when the count ran full. "He asked me what I wanted to throw. I said let's go with the breaking ball, because I can't locate the fastball."
Grilli's view from the bullpen of the clutch pitch: "Gutsy."
At that point, Watson took over and preserved Rodriguez's clean line by fighting back from 3-and-0 to run the count full before retiring Gonzalez on a fly to shallow center.
"I was just yanking the ball a little bit," Watson said of the first three pitches. "Not ideal, 3-and-0 with nowhere to put him. But I came all the way back, and was fortunate to get a popup."
In his 6 2/3 innings, Rodriguez allowed one walk besides the two hits and struck out six. The two hit batters in one inning were notable, given that all last season, he had hit only three in 205 2/3 innings, and one in 75 innings with the Bucs after his acquisition from the Astros.
Jackson, who began by striking out the side in the first, blinked only once in his five innings. Before departing for a pinch-hitter in the sixth, he allowed three hits and a pair of runs, walked one and struck out five.
Rodriguez had begun the game tied with the Phillies' Cole Hamels for the most innings among active National League left-handers. He departed the game with a career total of 1,388 1/3 innings.
Hurdle's decision to put -- and keep -- Garrett Jones in the two-hole paid off in the fourth. The inspiration for tucking Jones' power bat so high in the order was the left-handed hitter's high OPS (.888) last season versus right-handers; the chances of getting someone on base ahead of Andrew McCutchen.
Leaping off the drawing board, Jones led off the fourth with a sharp single and scored on McCutchen's even sharper double. When McCutchen moved to third on Pedro Alvarez's grounder and scored as Gaby Sanchez's grounder went through drawn-in shortstop Starlin Castro for an error, the Pirates had a 2-0 lead.
They upped that to 3-0 in the seventh, when Clint Barmes led off with a ground-rule double off reliever Michael Bowden, took third on Watson's sacrifice bunt and came home on a single by Starling Marte.
"I've been involved in a lot of cold games," said Hurdle, who could recall sitting through a Double-A doubleheader in Canton, Ohio, in the late '70s in sub-zero temperatures. "This is nowhere close to it. But it is difficult; this game wasn't made for skates."

Iphon? Lmao
^^lol but whatever. it'll still be weeks before we can even order.
I can't wait to hear about the announcement of when the iPhone cones out. I got a late October birthday and I keep telling my parents that this would be an awesome birthday gift. I do think that only Cook should present the whole time because he'll be doing it for a long time. Might as well throw him to the lions now and get it over with
I'm fairly certain they didn't mention September specifically. Ok - Simon beat me to it...
The ANNOUNCEMENT might be on Oct. 4th... not the product launch. I've seen way too many misleading headlines about this today.
iF the announcement is actually made on 4th October I would expect iOS5 to be released that day too with the iPhone 5 folowing shortly after, which isn't far off the 15th October date for France release.
It is still all rumours at the moment and it doesn't really matter, it will come when it comes, but people do seem to like to speculate.
Releasing on a Saturday would be brilliant!
More people have time to sit in front of a store friday nite into Sat. morning, and you can play with your phone ALL DAY saturday and Sunday, then goto work on Monday! Thoes unfortunate enough to NOT get a phone on Sat. will have to "be sick" on Monday to get a phone...

This is one area where you can never say a bad word about the New York Rangers:
They do good deeds and they have produced some of the great deed-doers.
So today is the mother of all their good-will events, Adam Graves and his annual Toys for Tots drive.
If you are anywhere near MSG today, and if you can afford it, I urge you to buy a toy and bring it (unwrapped) to the Theater lobby between 4 and 7 p.m. (doors open at 3:45 p.m.). Brian Boyle and Derek Boogaard will stop by for an hour at 4; Steve Eminger and Matt Gilroy at 5; and Michael Sauer and Derek Stepan at 6.
The event benefits the U.S. Marines' Toys for Tots drive … and if you can't make it, there are plenty of other Toys for Tots events during the holiday season. Try to find one and do something really nice for somebody you'll never meet. You might be surprised how good it makes you feel.
The Rangers are also involved in some other events today. Michael Del Zotto is hosting a youth street hockey clinic to start a series of 10 clinics around NYC; Chris Drury and Michal Rozsival are delivering coats and goodie-bags in Harlem as part of the Garden of Dreams coat drive; and Brandon Prust is doing a hockey clinic and autograph session for kids.
Off-topic a bit, boy, those Super Bowl champion Jets did a lot of talking early in their showdown in Foxboro, didn't they? Especially LT Lite. I would have loved to watch that game with my buddy Joe Benigno, just for the pure entertainment value.
And did you catch any of the Devils-Penguins game? I didn't see much, but I did watch John MacLean's post-game press conference, and I have to say, it's really, really uncomfortable watching him try to unravel his team's demise while saying "you know" in every sentence, maybe 50 times or more all together. Ugh.
Back to hockey for a moment, USA Hockey will announce its preliminary roster for the 2011 junior national team today at 11.

Business Administration & Economics Department
Business education is special at Georgetown College because the program combines two important elements, the liberal arts and business study.
Since the business curriculum incorporates liberal arts principles in both content and method, it continues the development of liberal arts skills that began in the General Education curriculum. These liberal arts skills (the ability to read and learn, to analyze problems, and to communicate effectively) are essential in a world of rapid change, for they equip graduates to cope with new, unexpected situations. The business courses then advance these skills in a particular context, while studying business problems. In this way, the business courses help students learn about the business environment and learn about standard business problems. This combination of thinking skills and familiarity with business is excellent preparation for the future.
Graduates of the Georgetown College Business and Economics Department are prepared to begin a wide variety of careers. Interesting opportunities exist in the traditional business sector, the non-profit sector and the government sector. Some graduates will instead seek further education in graduate or professional school, including schools of business, economics, law and public policy.
The Georgetown College Business Administration and Economics Department offers majors in:
- Accounting
- Business Administration
- Economics
- Finance
- Healthcare Administration
- Management
- Marketing
The department also offers interdisciplinary majors in:
- International Business and Culture
Students majoring in all areas take a number of required courses in order to build a solid foundation for further study. They then pursue one or more majors, deepening and broadening their ability to explore opportunities and solve problems. In addition, we strive to instill in our student's high ideals of business ethics, morality, social responsibility, intellectual curiosity and professional values. Business majors are required to choose a minor outside the department.
For information concerning majors available through the Business Administration and Economics Department, please see our department Handbook (click here).
Department Mission Statement
The Business Administration and Economics Department blends traditional business and liberal arts education to offer a superior business-related education. Students examine common themes from today's global business environment, and they also develop the intellectual skills necessary to adapt that knowledge appropriately to address new developments and unfamiliar situations. Our graduates are prepared to be contributing members of the business community and society at large.
The Business Administration and Economics Department strives to prepare students to take their places in society and to thrive in whatever roles they choose. The successful student who completes the program will:
- know the core content of his/her major area.
- be able to communicate ideas effectively;
- be able to analyze problems and formulate appropriate solutions;
By attaining these outcomes, this successful student should find that he/she is:
- prepared to begin a meaningful career immediately after graduation;
- able to gain admission to good graduate or professional programs, provided the student has the appropriate abilities and motivation for further study.

Topic: My beloved mother
I'm still hurting and crying every day for my mother as she was all I had.
It will be 11 months on October 29th, 2013, that my mother passed away in Iran. As a U.S. Citizen, I obtained a visa to go to Tehran to spend time with my mother in the hospital 5 days before she passed and I'm still suffering from PTSD from just being there. I was surprised I got in and out even though I was held at the airport for one hour when I arrived and questioned in a small room. I thought I was going to be thrown in jail. How will I ever be able to ever go back there to visit her grave? She wouldn't have wanted to be buried there (she was a dual citizen) but then again I'm not sure.
I know she's in a better place but this monster of a disease took her life in 8 weeks. At least she didn't suffer for too long. She was 83 1/2 and they couldn't do anything for her.
I miss hearing her voice and having her in my life as my friend, mentor and only trusted and loved her. I had so much to tell her while I was in the hospital with her 4 days before she passed away, but didn't want to make her uncomfortable, so I never shared it. I knew when she told me that she was not going to get better, it was wise to not talk but I didn't know that she was going to die. Three days later she was in ICU. She waited for me, I know.
I found out through a contact that I met online playing backgammon on FB from Iran, that my name was not on her grave stone. I asked him to go to the cemetery and take pictures which he did and discovered that my cousins did not engrave the message that I asked them to put on my mother's grave.
My cousins have been brutal with me and have treated me like dirt (because they didn't inherit my mother's studio in Paris where she lived) and when I emailed them and asked them why they didn't engrave my message on my mother's grave, their response was that I didn't pay for my mother's funeral. They are swimming in money but instead they engraved a message from my mother to her sister. I was hurt beyond belief. My cousins have been so spiteful and stole all her valuables. They grew up with my mother and I, and my mother supported them for years, when I was a teenager. They were still free-loading off my mother by going to Paris and sleeping on her floor since she only had a studio, for about 3 months. I told them I would pay them to have my message engraved and their response was that they would try. I want to have my mother's remains sent back to me but there's so much red tape there and Iran hates us. I'm totally devastated!
I believe in the "after life" and know that I will see and be with my mother again, but her passing has left a big hole in me. I know that she has the biggest part of my heart and I carry her wherever I go, but I'm still in so much pain. I talk to her every morning and cry. Can anyone share something about the "Afterlife", and give me some emotional support. Already been to grief support classes and on medication. I would appreciate it.
Still grieving.

SHOCKING extra details about a brutal town centre assault on an innocent woman have been released.
A woman was knocked to the ground and repeatedly beaten during an attempted robbery in St Peter's Street, Colchester, at about 7.45pm on Saturday night.
Det Con Tim Harris, who has been tasked with finding the thugs responsible, said: "This was a lone female attacked near her home.
"She was attacked from behind with a weapon used to repeatedly beat her and she was left with dramatic injuries.
"The injuries will fade but the emotional effect of this will take much longer to get over."
The first suspect is white, aged about 17 or 18-years-old and was wearing a dark blue hooded top.
He is about 5ft 9ins tall and thin.
The second suspect, who struck her with the wood, had darker skin and is aged between 17 and 20-years-old.
He had a slight build and was dressed all in black.
Police are hoping to speak to any witnesses or anyone with information on this unprovoked attack to get justice for the victim and catch those responsible before they strike again.
Anyone with information call Det Con Tim Harris at Colchester police station on 101.

A MAN has been taken to hospital with serious injuries after being hit by a car in Bolton town centre.
The man was hit by a silver Toyota Yaris outside The Picture House flats in Bradshawgate at 11.50am today.
Police and an ambulance were called to the scene and the man was treated for injuries to his left arm.
His injuries are believed to be serious but not life-threatening, and he was said to be conscious and breathing while he was treated.
He was taken to hospital by the North West Air Ambulance, which landed in the car park in Bollings Yard, just off Bradshawgate.
No one has been arrested and the police are treating it as an accident.
One witness, who asked to remain anonymous, said: "I saw him walk out in front of the car. After he got hit, he was face down at first, then he picked himself up, but he's clearly badly injured.
Another witness said: "It looks pretty serious, but at least he's conscious. It could have been much worse."
A police spokesman said the man had suffered "serious" injuries.

4 Questions for Adam Gby Brandy Shearer in Community, Food Network Star, July 11, 2010
Adam Gertler, our special guest in tonight's Star chat, will have (I'm sure) some enlightening takes on how this competition's playing out. Things are starting to get wilder, and he was, after all, in the finalists' shoes himself not too long ago. But … I also have some other, non-Star questions I think might be fun to run by him, too:
1) What are three foods you'd pick now if you ever did another "Freaky" special on cuisine?
2) Would you be willing to do a karaoke performance we could post here?
3) Besides a bra, have you ever attempted to make any other item of clothing with chocolate?
4) Do you need an assistant host for Kid in a Candy Store? (Please?)

Two new lakes will be created in the Platte Valley near the river, between Overton and Lexington, under an agreement between conservation and irrigation groups.
The cost to construct the facilities, including improvements to the Phelps Canal, is estimated at $75 million, Buettner said. It is anticipated that the reservoirs could be in operation by late 2015 or early 2016.
Central's board approved the agreement on an 8-2 vote with one abstention and one director absent.
The next steps in the project include final project design, acquiring state and federal permits and starting negotiations for land acquisition, Buettner said.
The lakes would be known as the J-2 Regulating Reservoirs because of their nearness to Central's J-2 hydroplant and the J-2 river return below Johnson Lake, the reservoirs will have a surface area of about 1,000 acres (less than 2 square miles) and a capacity to hold about 15,000 acre-feet of water.
Buettner said the reservoirs will re-time returns of water from Central's public power and irrigation system to help offset shortages to U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service target flows in the Platte River and help threatened and endangered species habitat along the river.
He said the reservoirs are expected to yield about 40,000 acre-feet a year through retiming and will also be used to enhance periodic short-duration, high-flow events to help maintain the river's braided characteristic.
Additionally, Central will be able to use the reservoirs to increase generation efficiency at its J-2 hydropower plant while limiting impacts to irrigation operations and river flows.
The program will be assigned 75 percent of the yield from the operation of the reservoirs to offset shortages to target flows, while the state of Nebraska will be credited with 25 percent of the yield to help offset depletions to the river.
The agreement includes Central, the Platte River Program through the Nebraska Community Foundation, and the state of Nebraska through the Department of Natural Resources.
The Platte River Recovery Implementation Program will provide most of the funding for the project while the DNR will provide approximately 25 percent of the costs associated with the construction. Central's share of construction costs will be capped at $2.5 million.
Since the project is closely tied to Central's hydro-irrigation system, Central will own and operate the reservoirs.
Also, civil engineer Cory Steinke reported that Lake McConaughy's elevation as of July 1 was 59 percent of capacity.
Water from the big lake is now being released for irrigation, while inflows into the lake have fallen to about 30 percent of normal for this time of year.

SCOTT RHODES insists his York Acorn ARLC team are "not far away" from a run of victories that will propel them up the National Conference League division one standings.
Acorn host Ince Rose Bridge on Saturday (2.30pm) sitting second bottom with three points from their opening fives games, following a 30-6 loss at Milford last week.
But head coach Rhodes remains confident they can get back into the promotion race, believing even last week's encounter offered positives.
"The result didn't reflect the game - it was a lot closer than the scoreline suggests," he said. "We had plenty of chances but just weren't clinical enough and they got a couple of late tries that took the game away.
"But we are making chances. Not being clinical enough is costing us as these are games we should be getting something out of. But I think overall we're not far away from picking these wins up. We've just got to stick it out."
He added: "Ince Rose are around the same area in the table as us.
We're second bottom but only three points from fourth. Everyone is beating each other at the minute.
We could easily have had four wins. That's how close it is. We're just not getting the calls or the bit of luck you need.
"It's not quite happening for us but I'm pretty sure over the next few weeks we will pick up good wins."
Last week's game saw the return to first-team action of pack leader Tom Hill after a long-standing groin/pelvic injury, and Rhodes was hoping the forward will overcome apparent soreness and play regularly again, starting on Saturday.
"He came off the bench and did really well," said the coach. "He's had a bit of a setback in training this week but we're hoping it's not serious because having him in there is a real boost."
Heworth go to Crosfields in division three looking to write off their last match - a 34-4 loss at Hindley - and instead build on their previous away trip, the wellearned draw at Coventry Bears.
"We were excellent that day against a good side and can take lots from it," said coach Tim Rumford, who is boosted by the returns from university of outsidebacks Christian Pollock, a former rugby union under- 18s international from Whitby, and James Farnsworth.
Last week's friendly against Jarrow was called off as the visitors had too many injuries and absences, but Rumford added: "It's been a bit of a broken start to the season for us which isn't helping with combinations but we've done some good work in training and I'm pretty confident we can more than compete this week."
New Earswick All Blacks coach Jack Stearman is confident his side can give a buoyant Upton a run for their money in their penultimate Pennine League championship outing.
Upton, with only two defeats all term, became the first team to beat leaders Methley in the league this season when they won 20-18 a fortnight ago, and they followed up by seeing off third-placed Chequerfield 27-8 last weekend.
They need to also beat All Blacks to give themselves a chance of toppling Methley in the title race, but Stearman said: "We went to their place with only 13 men on the first day of the season and ran them close and we've improved a lot since then.
"We can pull off a victory and push for fourth spot. Fourth was our aim at the start of the season and there's no reason why we can't do that with two games to go. If we stick to our game-plan we can push them and get the result."
Selby Warriors 'A' host leaders Illingworth 'A' in division seven.
Illingworth have only one defeat all term.

Six of the best gadgets and gizmos on a theme. This week: Six of the best gadgets for snow-based fun
By Peter Jenkinson
It has been mentioned by the weather folk that there may be some snow on the way, so it's worth being prepared just in case it does arrive.
Previous years have shown how hard it can be to get your hands on a sled and the like when the white stuff falls, so be forearmed with one or more of these enviable pieces of kit.
Worn out - Beardski - £24.99 from www.firebox.com
Set yourself apart from the crowd by sporting one of these chin warmers - it certainly has the grin-inducing factor. Perfect for covering your ears, face and neck while on the slopes, the part ski mask, part fake beard is available in a variety of colours - and you'll never need a razor to shift it from your face.
Blast-off - Wham-O Arctic Force Blaster - £24.95 from www.amazon.co.uk
Be the dominant force in any snow-based battle with this amazing bit of machinery. Prepare up to three missiles in the snowball press and the blaster will launch them up to 100ft. It's fun for the whole family that can last all day long.
Quick style - Snow Boogie Polar Glider - £19.99 from www.iwantoneofthose.com
Fed up of using a bin bag to get you down the snow-covered hills? This minor investment will launch you down the slopes at top speed - and the quirky 'moose' and 'polar bear' designs are sure to attract some enviable glances.
Grown-ups allowed - Wham-O Snow Boogie Air Slick - £7.50 from www.amazon.co.uk
There's no reason why adults can't join in the sledding fun. So relive those childhood memories and prepare to reach top speeds with this sleek-looking kit. Made from super-light foam, it's comfortable and easy to transport.
Old-school - Arctic Force Snowball Crossbow - £29.99 from www.firebox.com
Load up your snowballs in this Robin Hood-style weapon to launch your frozen ammunition up to 18m. With a quick pull-and-release mechanism, your opponents are likely to be running in the opposite direction.
Little but fast - Zipfy Sledge - £44.99 from www.firebox.com
Slightly more expensive than your standard sled, but after one ride on this agile piece of snow craft, you're sure to be hooked. The handle and underside grooves combine to create on very, very quick piece of propulsion. It's light enough to carry up the big hills and perfect for raising a smile.

Did you know?
Colesberg is named after Sir Galbraith Lowry Cole, a former governor of the Cape Colony. It's earlier name was Towerberg (after the koppie overlooking the town).
Travellers on the N1 between Johannesburg and Cape Town often stop over for the night in the historical Northern Cape town of Colesberg.
Their sojourns are normally all too brief. Colesberg, set snugly in a ring of little hills, has a lot more to offer than an overnight bed. Take the newly established Colesberg Walking Tour, for instance.
Pop in at the local tourist information offices in Murray Street and someone there will organise you a guide for a fascinating three-hour tour through Colesberg.
The area has seen waves of settlement over the past few millennia. First, the Stone Age folk roamed these hills, hunting the antelope that moved through the surrounding area.
And later came the trekboer (nomadic farmer) who, with livestock herds, was in constant search of new pastures. The trekboers were followed by the missionaries, who set up a number of stations and tried to convert the local /Xam San to their congregation. Finally, the settlers arrived and established some kind of formal government – and a settlement called Colesberg in 1830.
The first few decades of Colesberg resembled the first few decades of Tombstone, Arizona, in the United States – they were both gunfighters' towns, unruly places full of wandering hunters, adventurers, thieves and cutthroats, mostly moving northwards in search of greener pastures.
Gunpowder and liquor were the coin of the day until law and order were established.
The slow rhythms of Colesberg were disturbed at the turn of the 19th century by the South African War (also often known as the Anglo-Boer War). Battles between Briton and Boer were fought all over the koppies (hills) surrounding the town.
Your historical Colesberg Walking Tour will include visits to the Colesberg-Kemper Museum, various churches, the stone magistrate's court, various Karoo-style houses, some old shops in the main street and, possibly, lunch at a former horse mill that currently does duty as a bar and restaurant.
Visit the various cemeteries, ask your guide about a tour of the local township or, if you're feeling particularly active, unstrap those mountain bikes from your vehicle and take on a listed Colesberg mountain bike trail.
Colesberg is most famous for its racehorse-breeding farms. If you wish to extend your stay in the area, a night spent on a local guest farm would be just the ticket.

Doha unveils new festival format
The Doha Film Institute (DFI) will hold two annual film festivals starting this year – the emerging talent-focused Qumra Film Festival in March, and the community-based Ajyal Film Festival for the Young in November.
The eight-day Qumra Film Festival will include competitions for first and second-time filmmakers from around the world. International juries will present awards in feature-length and short film categories, along with the existing Made in Qatar section.
The Qumra Film Festival's Industry Days programme will include master classes, workshops, panels and the Doha Projects initiative, matching DFI grant recipients with producers and other industry players. Out-of-competition programming will include films from established directors and new talent; a section inviting directors to share films that influenced their work; along with tributes and directors' first films.
The Ajyal Film Festival for the Young aims to bring cinema and film-related activities to Qatar to promote film appreciation among families and educators. Headed by DFI head of programmes Fatma Al Remaihi, the festival will feature competition sections judged by local children in three age ranges, along with thematic retrospectives, master classes, workshops and other events.
The first edition of the Ajyal Film Festival takes place in November, 2013, while the inaugural Qumra Film Festival will take place in March, 2014. DFI recently ended its partnership with Tribeca Enterprises, with which it had co-hosted the Doha Tribeca Film Festival for the past four years.
"Over the last four years, our community-based programming has been extremely popular among the residents of Doha," said DFI CEO Abdulaziz Al Khater. "We want to harness the momentum we've generated there and continue developing film appreciation in Qatar.
"At the same time, the Institute has decided to focus on emerging filmmakers and expand its competitions to include films from around the world. The best path to achieving our goals is to build two separate film festivals."
"We have designed Ajyal to enhance film education and make it a lot of fun by engaging families and educators through cinema," said Al Remaihi.
"At the same time, we want to open a space for dialogue about the complex issues facing youth today and to empower them by giving them a platform for expression. It's an investment in today's youth – so it's really an investment in the Qatar of the future."

A unique 38-print photo exhibit featuring images by 19 Children First Academy students who were mentored by professional photographers in how to document their personal world will be on display at the Phoenix Burton Barr Library for two weeks beginning March 7. After the exhibit at Teen Central at the Library, the images will be moved to Children's First Academy.
During the Kids in Focus project from Jan. 11 to Feb. 8, every Friday for five weeks participating students at the school for at-risk and homeless children each received 27-exposure disposable film cameras.
The following week, the film was processed, at no cost by Tempe Camera Photo Imaging Center, and students met with the photographers and looked through the images to continue learning and experimenting with digital point-and-shoot cameras. Before the weekend, each student was given another camera to continue shooting.
Claude Briggs purchased and donated the 80 disposable cameras and McKenna Pro Lab donated the 38 exhibit prints. The Kids in Focus project was developed and organized by professional freelance commercial photographer Karen Shell, a member of Through Each Other's Eyes.
Other photographers involved in the project were Dennis Scully, Art Holeman, David Moore, Michael Norton, Jim Marshall and Jason Grubb.
An opening reception is planned from 6-8 p.m. on March 7. The exhibit is free.

Bitmap image assets typically only render optimally at the resolution for which they are designed. This limitation can present challenges when you design applications for multiple resolutions. The solution is to create multiple bitmaps, each at a different resolution, and load the appropriate one depending on the value of the application's runtimeDPI property.
The Spark BitmapImage and Image components have a source property of type Object. With this property, you can pass a class that defines which assets to use. In this case, you pass the MultiDPIBitmapSource class to map different sources, depending on the value of the runtimeDPI property.
The following example loads a different image, depending on the DPI:
<s:Image> <s:source> <s:MultiDPIBitmapSource source160dpi="@Embed('assets/160.png')" source240dpi="@Embed('assets/240.png')" source320dpi="@Embed('assets/320.png')"/> </s:source> </s:Image> <s:Label text="applicationDPI = {FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.applicationDPI}"/>
Normally, you would take the same content and scale (and/or design) it for each DPI. For clarity, I've created 3 different images for each DPIClassification. The source images are shown together here at their full resolution:
When run on a device, the MultiDPIBitmapSource class selects the appropriate asset based on the runtimeDPI, not the applicationDPI. The bitmap itself is present unscaled, even though the application itself may be using application scaling. The 2 photos below show nearly identical applications. The only difference is that the second application labeled "Bitmap Demo Scaling" is using applicationDPI="160″. You'll see that in both cases, the correct bitmap is used. And because of the screen DPI of each device, the physical size of each bitmap is approximately the same.
The main point here is that regardless of which scaling strategy you choose, you should always use MultiDPIBitmapSource when displaying bitmaps in mobile Flex projects.

WHAT IS LESEAN "SHADY" MCCOY DOING IN THE GAME WITH UNDER TWO MINUTES TO GO OF A BLOWOUT LOSS??? This is the last straw for Coach Andy Reid and this staff. The Philadelphia Eagles were severely outplayed by the Washington Redskins and the outcome was decided early in the fourth quarter. That being said, what is the coaching staff doing giving carries to their best player with under two minutes to go? McCoy runs off the left side of the line and gets smacked helmet to helmet on a meaningless run play. McCoy would end up being carted off the field with a concussion. Shady could be the cornerstone of the offense, but subjecting him to meaningless hits will waste the stud running back. The coaching staff has struggled to get McCoy consistent carries all season long, yet they decide to stick with the run down twenty five points late in the fourth quarter, COME ON MAAAAN!
It gets even better when Coach Andy Reid was asked about his decision to leave McCoy in the game. Coach Reid stated that he was still trying to win the game. Are you serious Andy? Maybe the past four months have rendered Reid delusional because nobody in their right mind thinks they can win the game when losing by twenty five points with under two minutes to go. I understand there needs to be an attitude about playing until the whistle blows at the end of the game, but thats what Bryce Brown is for. Let the rookie running back bang away as the game ends, he gets experience and it saves the health of your star back as well. Seems like an easy decision. But Coach Reid believed that LeSean McCoy gave them a better chance to win late in the blowout loss. If McCoy could have broke off a long run, then recovered an onsides kick, then another long run, then another onsides kick, then another long run the Eagles would have still lost the game. Reid's explanation that he was trying to win the game is a joke.
It is sad to say, but Coach Reid has lost touch with this team and at this point a coaching change appears to be inevitable. Owner Jeffrey Lurie will most likely wait until the end of the season, but when decisions like this are hurting star players, how long can the Eagles afford to wait?Tags: Andy Reid, Bryce Brown, Coach Andy Reid, Concussion, Football, Jeffrey Lurie, LeSean McCoy, NFL, Philadelphia, Philadelphia Eagles, Washington Redskins

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- A statewide texting-while-driving ban that could be tricky to enforce cleared the Ohio Legislature on Tuesday and was headed to the governor's desk for his expected signature.
The House cleared the measure on a 82-12 vote. The Senate passed it earlier this month.
All drivers would be banned from texting, though young drivers could more easily be pulled over for it.
That's fine by 17-year-old Salome Beneye of Columbus.
"It should be more strictly enforced toward teens," Beneye said in a phone interview. "I'm not saying it shouldn't toward adults as well, but I feel like teens have a better chance of getting in greater accidents than adults would."
Beneye, who's had her license since November, said she doesn't make phone calls or text while driving thanks in part to a series of pictures highlighting distracted driving accidents that were shown in her drivers' education class.
"It's really scary," she said. "No text or phone call is worth my life."
The bill would make texting with hand-held devices a secondary offense for adults. That means drivers could be ticketed for typing emails or instant messages only if they were first pulled over for another offense, such as running a red light.
The measure is tougher on teen drivers. Texting or using an electronic device while driving would be a primary offense for those under age 18. Minors could not use their cellphones, iPads, laptops or other electronic devices while driving unless there's an emergency.
Minors could be fined $150 for the first offense and have their license suspended for 60 days. Repeat offenders could face a $300 fine and get their license taken away for a year. Teens could have hands-free GPS navigation devices, but they couldn't use other electronic devices unless an emergency arises, or the vehicle was stopped and off the roadway.
The measure would be among the broadest in the country in terms of teen distracted driving restrictions, according to the Governors Highway Safety Association. Texting while driving is already prohibited in 38 states, the organization has found. An additional five states prohibit text messaging by new drivers.
Some states, such as such as Connecticut and Washington, also ban young or new drivers from using wireless devices even if it's hands-free.
Democratic Rep. Nancy Garland, the bill's co-sponsor, said it would make Ohio's roads safer. She recounted stories brought to her by constituents, fathers and wives whose relatives died from distracted drivers who were texting.
"It is time to end these tragedies," Garland, of New Albany, told her colleagues.
The Ohio Fraternal Order of Police supports the legislation. However, the group's president has said the organization would have preferred that texting be a primary offense for all drivers because it would have been easier to enforce.
"You're asking a law enforcement officer to determine at 30 mph whether someone is under 18 or not, so that's a challenge," said Jay McDonald, Ohio FOP president.
Still, McDonald said the measure is a good first step in cracking down on the problem of distracted driving among teens. "That's who we think are the most vulnerable drivers," he said in a recent interview.
The measure also gives officers an avenue to investigate whether texting has played a role in a crash or traffic accident, McDonald said. "It will enable us to get a warrant and look into it much more thoroughly than we did before."
Ohio's bill would make texting behind the wheel a misdemeanor for drivers, with possible fines of $150. The measure wouldn't trump city ordinances on texting or cellphone use that might be tougher.
The legislation is a weaker statewide texting ban than an earlier version that the House passed in June. That version had made texting a primary offense, but it didn't include the crackdown on teen drivers.
The switch to the secondary offense came amid concerns in the Senate about how the law would be enforced by authorities. Senators had wrangled with concerns about enforcement since the bill stalled in their chamber last fall.
Drivers would have a six-month grace period after the bill takes effect. Law enforcement couldn't ticket or cite drivers for violations, but could issue a warning that provides information about the prohibitions on using electronics.
The bill provides a handful of exemptions for adults, including one that allows them to read and enter a name or number to make a phone call.

County home sales jump 23%, with median price dropping
Published: Thursday, March 21, 2013 at 5:11 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, March 21, 2013 at 5:11 p.m.
Single-family homes continued to sell at a brisk pace in Alachua County in February with double-digit, year-over-year increases for the fifth month in a row, although the median sales price was down because of a boom in sales at the lower end of the market.
Realtors reported closing 154 sales in February, up 23 percent from 125 sales in February 2012, according to data from the Gainesville Multiple Listings Service.
The median sales price, with half selling for more and half selling for less, was down 3.3 percent to $149,950 from $155,000 a year prior. That was partly because of an 86 percent increase in sales in the $50,000 to $100,000 range, with 26 sales total.
"You've got a lot of Realtors who are busy, not just trying to drum up business but from actually handling business," said Greta Rice, president of the Gainesville-Alachua County Association of Realtors.
"We're seeing a multitude of full-price offers, more than (January)."
Buyers continue to burn through the available inventory, with the listings of homes on the market dropping 16 percent to 1,257. At February's pace of sales, that represents an eight-month supply compared with 11.2 months a year ago.
Rice, who is also a broker at Tioga Realty, said the inventory is still a little high but is in the healthy range.
Pending sales of homes under contract that have yet to close were up 52 percent to 248 in February. However, new listings were up 17 percent to 311, slowing the inventory burn.
New listings were up at the state level as well, by 3 percent.
"This is the first sign that low inventories are convincing sellers to come to the market," said John Tuccillo, chief economist of Florida Realtors.
Statewide sales were up 10 percent in February, while the median sales price was up 13 percent to $150,000 from $133,000 a year ago.
Cash sales made up about half of all sales in Florida. Cash deals also made up a bigger share of nationwide sales at 32 percent compared with 28 percent in January.
That is because the sales resulted from offers made during the holidays when activity from traditional homebuyers slows while investors remained active, said Lawrence Yun, chief economist of the National Association of Realtors.
U.S. single-family home sales were up 9 percent over the year in February but dropped 0.2 percent from January. The median sales price was $173,800, up 11 percent over the year.
Sales of all housing types were up 10 percent over the year and 0.8 percent over January. The seasonally adjusted annual rate was 4.98 million sales, the highest level since November 2009 when tax credits were fueling sales.
Alachua County buyers closed on 44 existing townhomes and condominiums in February, up 42 percent from the 31 sales a year prior. The median sales price was up 16 percent to $66,500 from $57,500 a year ago.
Florida condo sales were up 7 percent over the year, and the median sales price was up 21 percent to $115,000 from $95,000.

Countdown to the Holidays: 7 Tips to Spread Your Rich Media Cheer
This holiday season, be generous and spread your rich media everywhere...
As your customers shop in more channels across more devices, you need to be where they are—especially over the upcoming holiday shopping season. As you devise your game-plan for the holidays, here are some rich media tips to rev up your holiday planning.
1. Optimize your mobile site. The game-changer this holiday season is mobile. Shoppers will be using their cell phones to research, comparison-shop and browse as they navigate between the online and offline experiences. Thus, you need to engage your customers in mobile, so be sure your imagery is optimized for the small screen.
Rich, full-screen image zoom and videos are the most effective ways to browse or display products in mobile, according to a majority of the respondents in our mobile survey published in July.
2. Socialize your rich media. Social media is the other channel set to make waves this holiday season. Last year, comScore found 27% of US shoppers said social media has influenced their purchases, and this year that number should rise. Add depth and richness to your social media initiatives. We've seen merchants like Soft Surroundings post their online catalogue on Facebook to great effect; make your dynamic viewer sets embeddable in blogs to make your product pages go viral. Check out how Niche Modern did it.
3. Cover all the rich media bases on your PC commerce site. From full-screen imagery to zoom capabilities, dynamic rich media can deliver an all-around great online shopping experience. Offer great visualization tools from start to finish, beginning from the home page, to search-and-filtering and through checkout to support. Don't forget to post your online catalog to help those in search of ideas. These shoppers love the product bundles or entire wardrobe ensembles to spark gift ideas. Beyond that, your site's dynamic viewing capabilities should enhance and deepen the shoppers' understanding of the product.
On category pages, layer on more interactive visual information, such as click-views, rollover alternative views and colorization. The key is to give shoppers as much product information as possible to give them the confidence to purchase. If they can examine the details of the bracelet, they will appreciate and understand the product craftsmanship and intricacies that much more. The more visual and textual information you can provide, the more you can also help set expectations, resulting in greater satisfaction and lower return rates. Check out our customer experience survey to learn which rich media and merchandising tactics has delivered for online retailers.
4. Enrich your online ad campaigns. Today, the challenge for marketers is to break through the noise and clutter with engaging and relevant offers and experiences so they can convert their audience into buyers. One way to do this is to increase the relevance of your online ads and promotions with a customized, dynamic experience. From animated banners to video ads, connect with your audience using rich media, and don't forget to tie your offers to CRM to deliver the relevant content to the right audience at the right time. Personalizing ads with relevant information related to geography or weather can also score big points
5. Use videos to convert. Shoppers love online videos, and their popularity continues to grow. That's good news for retailers because video's persuasive powers are indisputable—conversion improvements can be as high as 140% after shoppers view a product video, according to data from our customers. Moreover, video can help to close the gap between the touch-and-feel store experience and the web. So, let online videos tell your product stories: Use them for product reviews, demonstrations and merchandising. Get our eVideo paper to learn more best practices.
6. Invite user generated content. The voice of real customers lends credibility and authenticity to your brand like nothing else. With 64% of social media users somewhat or completely trusting blog posts by people they know, compared to 36% for posts by a brand, the path to building trust in your brand should involve actual customers. So, invite your customers to share their experiences with videos or pictures.
7. Let shoppers have fun creating a one-of-a-kind gift. One of the hottest trends in retail continues to be the growing trend of co-creation or mass customization—letting customers design and customize their consumables using online product configurators. These intuitive visualization tools guide users through each design decision, allowing shoppers to see what they're getting before the product is made. They create a memorable experience for the buyer and one-of-a-kind gifts for the receiver. To learn more about product configurators, download our paper.

Indians can't support less-than-stellar Kluber
Walters homers, but ace uncharacteristically walks four, allows dinger
MINNEAPOLIS -- It says a lot about the kind of season Indians starter Corey Kluber is having that Thursday could be considered a bad day at the office.
In what has been an incredible second half for Cleveland's rotation leader, Kluber finally flinched in what would normally be deemed a decent effort. Given the high standards the right-hander has set of late, he looked to be laboring on a day when a lack of run support led to a 4-1 loss to the Twins at Target Field.
"He's earned the right for us to expect what he does," Indians manager Terry Francona said. "He just didn't command today as well as he normally does."
The defeat was only the third in the past 10 games for the Tribe, which slipped to six games behind the first-place Royals in the American League Central. Cleveland remains 4 1/2 games behind the Tigers for the AL's second Wild Card spot.
Pitted against Twins right-hander Phil Hughes, Kluber gave Cleveland seven solid innings in what ultimately went down as another quality start for the American League Cy Young Award contender. For the first time since July 11, though, Kluber gave up at least three runs, surrendered at least one home run and worked with at least 11 baserunners.
Since that July 11 glitch against the White Sox, Kluber had gone 4-0 with a 0.76 ERA, 55 strikeouts and only six walks in 47 2/3 innings across the six starts leading up to Thursday's outing. The Twins showed early on that they were up to the task, collecting one hit and drawing a walk in Kluber's first inning on a muggy afternoon.
In all, Kluber issued four free passes, marking his most in one outing since June 15. Entering the game, the right-hander also had just four non-intentional, four-pitch walks on the season. Against the Twins, Kluber uncharacteristically had a pair of four-pitch walks.
Kluber said he knew what the issue was, but declined to go into detail.
"We'll figure it out," said the pitcher.
With the loss, Kluber dropped to 13-7 and saw his season ERA tick up to 2.46 through 27 starts for Cleveland.
"I was a little off," Kluber said. "I just wasn't quite able to reel it in and find it. I did a good job battling, trying to keep the team in the game, but I didn't quite have enough today to pull off the win."
Kluber sidestepped the potential harm of Minnesota's early traffic, but encountered his first setback in the fourth inning, when Kennys Vargas drilled a pitch into the left-field seats for a solo home run. In the sixth inning, the Twins struck again in the form of a two-run double off the bat of Trevor Plouffe, pushing the Tribe in a 3-1 hole.
On another day, Kluber's 109-pitch effort might have been enough to net a win.
"The fact that he still kept it a low-scoring game," Indians second baseman Jason Kipnis said, "and [kept] us in the ballgame that long, that's a credit to him. That's what we've come to expect from him."
Minnesota's slim margin was sufficient for Hughes, who outdueled Kluber by striking out eight, walking none and scattering five hits in his seven frames for Minnesota. Cleveland's lone breakthrough against the Twins starter came in the fifth inning, when rookie Zach Walters drilled a 1-2 offering out to right field for a rocket of a home run.
"He threw a little cutter that came back over the plate," Walters said of the pitch he launched for his seventh homer of the season. "His stuff was on. He was throwing that invisible fastball, it seemed like. No one could get on top and no one could square up. I got lucky on one."
When it was all said and done, Kluber ended the day with eight strikeouts, giving him 205 on the year. That represents the most in a season by a Cleveland right-hander since 2000, when Bartolo Colon had 212. Kluber also joined Colon as one of only nine Indians pitchers in the past 100 seasons to have at least 200 strikeouts in a single campaign.
That was hardly a consolation prize for a pitcher trying to do his part in keeping Cleveland in contention.
"Any time you lose a ballgame it's disappointing," Kluber said. "Obviously, we'd like to win every game we can right now with the position we're in."

POLICE have continued their Christmas crackdown on drink driving.
As part of a police operation targeting driving offences, particularly drink driving, officers have pulled over a number of drivers.
Since the drink-drive campaign was launched on December 1, 138 people across West Mercia and Warwickshire have been arrested for driving under the influence of drink or drugs.
According to figures from the Safer Roads Partnership, over the past three years 18 people lost their lives in West Mercia and Warwickshire and 171 were seriously injured after collisions where drink or drugs were recorded as a contributory factor.
Inspector Stuart Murphy said: "People drink the night before at office parties or at home but don't realise if they are stopped in a car the next morning they will be over the legal limit.
"Even with the campaigns on the TV, people don't realise or choose to ignore that they are over the limit and if caught will lose their licence and in extreme cases, go to prison."
The Safer Roads Partnership, together with West Mercia and Warwickshire Police and other agencies, have been raising awareness of the consequences of drink driving and carrying out roadside checks throughout December.
The force-wide campaign supports the national month-long winter drink drive campaign that was launched on December 1 by the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO).

Time Keeper
1940-1941 — Pearl Harbor
It appears he may have served as a civilian employee as a timekeeper during World War II. If anyone can confirm this please acknowledge and provide the source. I found a passenger crew list for the SS Marisposa sailing from San Francisco to Honolulu on May 23, 1941. I also found a WWII Navy Muster Roll that shows him sailing as a timekeeper. I am unable to find any corroborating evidence that this is in fact my great grandfather's brother.

The Bottle Apostle
opzioni oro By mthomasbuy Maxalt Rizatriptan in Indianapolis Indiana
forex bank kontonr It is really good to see new independent retailers like The Bottle Apostle opening (website here). This is especially true when they are in the East End and therefore easily accessible for me. The Apostle is clearly at home in 'Hackney Village', just along from the excellent Ginger Pig butchers and opposite the Empress of India 'gastropub'. Those seeking an old style Hackney experience can still wander through Victoria Park to 'The Top of the Morning' pub in Hackney Wick (as I sometime do with friends) but this area is also gentrifying at a swift pace following the influx of artists fleeing Hoxton in the hope of finding affordable studio space .come giocare in borsa on line
opcje binarne bankier.pl Anyway, whatever your view of gentrification, the Bottle Apostle is an attractive space with welcoming staff (all of whom seem to be called Tom) and most importantly a good range of the kind of wines you don't tend to see on supermarket shelves. I plumped for; 2007 Riesling Kabinett Der Brauneberg, 2008 Zarate Albarino (I think Jancis R liked the 2007 so this is worth a punt) and 2008 Pinot Blanc from Domaine Bruno Sorg (pictured).logiciel de trading option
binäre optionen handelszeiten They are varietals I particularly like and although all were around the ten quid mark I think this is where true value often lies. I will try to remember to review them when I open them…
forex öppettider malmö triangeln It is so refreshing not to be treated like an idiot (bogus supermarket discounts and hyped up medal blurb) even if this is not the cheapest selection of wines in town. I think they may have to rethink the Enomatic machines as I am unconvinced that they merit the space and must be a significant investment for a relatively small set up. Better to have a few open bottles, a cheap but effective Vacuvin and friendly banter. They are organising tastings (see site) and currently have a witty competition to design a label for their own claret. Hopefully not the first step in a global branding campaign.
opcje binarne z niskim depozytem I was saddened to see the plight of Threshers, the 112 year old off-licence chain founded by Samual Thresher, following First Quench Retailing going into administration. Victoria Wine, an important venue in my youth, was merged with Thresher in 1998. Wine cellar recently sold 109 shops after similar difficulties and Unwins had already become part of Threshers in 2005. Oddbins bought by Castel in 2002 was sold at a huge loss. Majestic however seems to be weathering the storm, in part due to the welcome move to reducing its minimum buy to six bottles, but the supermarkets seem to be heading towards an oligopoly (intended or not).
opciones binarias scalping It is hard for conusmers to resist the retail advantages of the supermarkets. Even harder perhaps for producers to negotiate in a marketplace where they are so 'outgunned' by retailers. And, as for the critics and bloggers, what is their role in the wine economy? I like to think of myself as a relatively independent blogger due to my main job as a Psychologist, and I try to retain some objectivity when tasting (though would not be naive enough to proclaim a Ralph Nader inspired unimpeachability). I am aware of more than a few 'critics' who are so involved with the trade that their claims of objectivity, which is at best a fragile construct, are laughable.
http://blog.pinkprincess.com/?svecha=opzioni-binari-german&30e=1e opzioni binari german I hope the Bottle Apostle thrives and will do my best to support it and other similar independents. I have no financial links with it but, 'call me old-fashioned', I just like local shops with good stock and the human touch.

Jergens Natural Glow 3 Days to Glow Moisturizer
Guest's Rating & Review
Jergens Natural Glow 3 Days to Glow Moisturizer Reviews
Not Good!Oh my goodness, this one is pretty bad. I took a shower as I normally do before I apply self tanner. I applied the light/medium color all over my body and sat around naked for about an hour before I went to bed expecting a nice glowing color as I usually get from other self tanners. Well, I was totally unhappy of what I found the next morning. My knees, top of my toes, ankels, and the top of my ha...read morends were orange! My inner arms were very streaky, and the color was definitely turned out darker than a light/medium is supposed to. I just wanted to scrub my whole body to get it off! I sat in the bathtub with a scrubbing buffer and soap and scrubbed for about 20 minutes and it wouldn't come off! I'm giving it a 2 for staying power but this is not one you want to buy. Tried it, done with it! I suggest choosing another brand. I have posted a few that I liked, that didn't turn out like this one. The express power is not worth it. — 4 years, 7 months agoEricaC123 | 458 reviews

I am in love with this product.GREAT product, I've used the medium version. It definitely makes you tan quickly! Yes, there can be a very very slightly orange tint, and yes, it can streak . However, this can be remedied by applying a layer or two of the regular Jergens over it the next day, to even out the color. Overall, I feel that this product looks pretty natural, smells alright, and is better than damaging my skin! I love this product and will continue using it. — 8 years, 6 months agoLipglossandSpandex | 521 reviews

Excellent for the face!I actually did not use this on my body, but rather the face. I switched from this to the Jergens Healthy Glow Face w/SPF 20, and at first I was in love, but alas, it didn't last long! This one gives COLOR, which is exactly what I wanted. I have used the medium/tan version and it is just perfect. Definitely give it a try! Jergens doesn't make bad gradual tanners at all and there is almost always a coupon. :) — 5 years, 4 months agopixie_dust | 492 reviews
