Breaking down the 2013 interleague schedule for all 30 teams. What teams are forced to deviate from their regular roster/lineup construction for the longest stretch of the year?
With the Astros finally moved into the American League, we have a very different interleague schedule this year. Not only does it mean that there is now at least one interleague series happening each day of the season, from April to October, it also means that the "rivalry weekends" that were the highlights of the interleague schedule fifteen years ago have been re-shaped. Additionally, the newly balanced divisions mean that, outside of the rivalry games, all teams in a given division can play the exact same teams as their divisional opponents. No longer do the schedule makers have to worry about a six-team division matching up with a four-team division.
So how did the schedule makers do? Did the schedule turn out as balanced as can be? Were they able to ensure that teams from any one division would have the same opponents as their division-mates? Were all clubs given the same number of interleague matches or did some lucky squad or two end up a series short? One thing to remember here is that, with interleague games happening all year long instead of on two or three specific weekends, clubs are now on unequal footing when it comes to setting their rosters for the change in league rules. If one team, for example, only ever has to worry about forcing their pitchers to hit one weekend a month, they are probably in a better situation than the club forced to suddenly remove their all-star DH for nine straight games. National League clubs playing in American League ballparks will have similar problems in trying to add a DH for extended periods of time.

Though it looks like a two-horse race in the NL West, even those players on losing clubs have something to play for.
In Phoenix, the Diamondbacks have skidded into a five-game losing streak after riding the heroics of a succession of first basemen (Brandon Allen, Paul Goldschmidt, Lyle Overbay... perhaps it is time to put in a call for Travis Lee?). In San Francisco, the Giants struggle to stay healthy, a problem that dogs all old people, not just those who play baseball for Brian Sabean's geriatric club.

In which Joe takes Bud Selig to task for failing to understand the real reasons for the All-Star Game's decline in popularity.
While looking toward the future with our comprehensive slate of current content, we'd also like to recognize our rich past by drawing upon our extensive (and mostly free) online archive of work dating back to 1997. In an effort to highlight the best of what's gone before, we'll be bringing you a weekly blast from BP's past, introducing or re-introducing you to some of the most informative and entertaining authors who have passed through our virtual halls. If you have fond recollections of a BP piece that you'd like to nominate for re-exposure to a wider audience, send us your suggestion.
Does Bud Selig believe that baseball isn't an inherently interesting game? So said Joe in the article below, which originally ran as a "Prospectus Today" column on July 13, 2006.

Another Home Run Derby requires another reminder--from the players, this time--that participation doesn't result in second-half slumps.
CLEVELAND— Sometimes, it happens just to break up the monotony of the day. At other times, it happens because natural competitiveness bubbles to the surface. Around any given batting cage, on any given day, a big-league team's pre-game batting practice can suddenly morph into an impromptu Home Run Derby.
Few Yankees are better in this setting than second baseman Robinson Cano, whose knack for squaring up the ball on the barrel of a bat translates into mammoth homers. Fans will get a chance to see it for themselves when Cano, who doesn't fit the mold of a typical slugger, takes part in the Home Run Derby.

Four Pujols homers, a Marlin massacre, and more of the same from Morton give the Cardinals, Brewers, and Pirates reason for optimism.
"The season is a marathon, not a sprint."—A thousand writers looking for an easy lead-in to their articles.
The marathon nature of the baseball season lends itself to a number of quirks, one of which is a tendency to stretch small problems into colossal issues that are set to sink the entire season. When Josh Hamilton started off the 2010 campaign hitting .205 in his first 13 games (and .242 as late as April 26), baseball fans everywhere—and, in particular, in the Dallas area—were wondering if he could "break out of his slump" or if he would ever regain his form from 2008. Of course, Hamilton would go on to win the American League Most Valuable Player award and lead his team to the World Series, but no one could know that at the time. All anyone could see was that a star player was slumping, which was regarded as a cause for concern.

Rays lefty David Price is having a fine full first season in the major leagues, along with other news and notes from around the majors.
All talk about pitching phenoms now begins and ends with Stephen Strasburg. That is quite understandable as no pitcher in baseball history has ever arrived in the major leagues with quite the fanfare that the Nationals' right-hander did last month.

Is there is or is there ain't an All-Star Game effect as far as getting rest or less?
Starting in early June, it seems like nearly every injury story is going to have the phrase "the All-Star break" in it. A player is coming back just before it, while another player is expected back after it, and yet another is hoping to rest over the break in order to be ready for the second half. The problem is, it doesn't appear to work that way. The break is three and sometimes four days when a player doesn't have games. It's the only scheduled break like that during the long grind of the season, no doubt, but three days is seldom enough time to heal something minor, let alone be able to have some sort of medical breakthrough.

Ready and rested, Will dives into dissecting a week's worth of breakdowns and injuries.
�Hola, amigos!�Acabo de regresar de una semana en Mexico - una semana de playa hermosa, la cerveza, y el beisbol no. (Mi espanol mejoro un poco tambien.) Oh, wait... English now. A week away provides a perspective, the same way that a fortieth birthday does. Being away, especially during a week where player after important player seemed to go down, reminded me why I do this every day. I see baseball through the lens of health and while sometimes, it would be a bit more accurate to wait or do something like write once a week or so, the story is lost. A player is injured-how bad is it? What is the medical staff doing? How are the players reacting? Is there a roster move? Is the team capable of filling in for the lost player? So much more happens than just the injury. Some of you missed having UTK here every day, some of you didn't, and the vast majority didn't notice, reading the rest of the content here. That's okay with me. I'm telling stories that involve injuries, not writing about injuries. It took me years to realize that and a beach. No matter ... a las lesions!

Colts offensive coordinator Arians: 'It was a great ride' with Steelers
His time with the Steelers didn't end how he had hoped, but Bruce Arians said he hasn't "been this excited in years," after his hiring as Indianapolis Colts offensive coordinator.
"I walked into the building (Monday) and never been greeted any better in my 37 years of coaching," Arians said Wednesday during an introductory conference call with reporters. "It's a new beginning. I am really excited about putting that horseshoe back on. I am looking forward to it."
Arians, 59, was the Colts' quarterbacks coach from 1998-2000, and the organization brought him back on Tuesday to run the offense. The move came 10 days after Arians parted ways with the Steelers in what the organization labeled as a retirement.
Arians later admitted it wasn't a retirement and that he wasn't offered a contract by team president Art Rooney II. Rooney responded by saying Arians' constant struggle with retirement prompted the organization to go in a different direction.
Arians, however, said yesterday he hasn't worried about retirement in years.
Even though his departure ended on bad terms, Arians said he cherishes his time with the Steelers.
"I was enjoying what I was doing," he said.
As offensive coordinator, Arians helped the Steelers to two Super Bowl appearances, including a championship in 2008. His offense ranked as high as seventh and as low as 22nd in his five years as coordinator.
Arians said he would miss the people he worked with but tiptoed around questions about Steelers' ownership.
"It was a great ride, great people. I love these guys," Arians said. "I have had a great relationship with these players."
Under Arians' guidance, the Steelers had three 12-4 seasons and advanced to the playoffs four times as he helped groom Ben Roethlisberger into one of the NFL's top quarterbacks.
"Ben is a superstar, and I would like to say that I helped him, but the good Lord gave him a ton of talent," Arians said. "We have a great relationship and that is going to last forever."
Arians takes over an Indianapolis offense full of uncertainty because of quarterback Peyton Manning's health problems. Although Arians said he would love to have Manning back, he promised the Colts offense will be balanced no matter who is quarterback.
"You cannot be one dimensional," Arians said. "I would like to go back and look at the statistics when I called plays in Cleveland and Pittsburgh for eight years. I am betting it is pretty close to 50-50."
In eight years as an NFL offensive coordinator, Arians called pass plays 55 percent of the time. In his five years with the Steelers, he threw 51.8 percent of the time. In 2011, that number grew to 57.2 percent.
"We were second in the league in time of possession this year, but we threw more than we ran," Arians said. "We won a lot of games by running out the clock by throwing the football."
Still, Arians was a magnet for criticism, even from management. Rooney said publicly two years ago that he believed the team needed to run the ball more. A few days before not renewing Arians' contract, Rooney said the offense and Roethlisberger's game needed to be tweaked.
Arians accepts the blame that comes with the title.
"When you are calling the plays, there are 65,000 fans in the stands — 63,000 are calling plays better than you are," Arians said. "Everybody who plays 'Madden' and fantasy football calls plays."
Wilson's condition upgraded
Steelers running back coach Kirby Wilson, badly burned Jan. 6 in a fire at his Seven Fields home, has been upgraded to serious condition, his family said Wednesday in a statement.
Wilson had been listed in critical condition in the Trauma Burn Center at UPMC Mercy, Uptown, while he recovered from burns that encompassed 45 percent of his body.
"His status is stable, and he has started his physical rehabilitation," the statement said. "The Wilson family would like to thank everyone for their prayers and support."

Hemsworth stars in Dito Montiel's drama crime as a security guard, who's involved in the largest cash heist in U.S. History.
Liam Hemsworth shows up with a bruised face in a first trailer for "Empire State", in which he portrays a security guard that takes part in a robbery scheme. Though he may not look like a criminal, it does not make Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's character, a detective who investigates the heist case, unable to sense there's something strange about him.
Hemsworth is introduced as Chris Potamitis, who's been denied his dream job of being a cop. Settling for a security guard job with an armored truck company, Potamitis makes a mistake of mentioning the company's lax security to his best friend, and is soon unwittingly drawn into a robbery scheme - resulting in the largest cash heist in U.S. history.
As the stakes continue to rise, Potamitis and his buddy must outwit James Ransone (Johnson), the veteran NYPD Detective that is hot on their trail, as well as the local crime bosses that want to know who pulled a job on their turf, or suffer the consequences.
Michael Angarano is tapped to play Eddie, Potamitis' friend as well as partner-in-crime. Playing Hemsworth's on-screen girlfriend is Emma Roberts, who's seen in the video working as a waitress.
"Empire State", which is helmed by "The Son of No One" director Dito Montiel, will go straight to Blu-ray on September 3.

M. Night Shyamalan's movie adaptation of Nickelodeon's much-loved Avatar: The Last Airbender cartoon has been controversial from the casting on down, spawning an entire movement of fans disappointed to see nearly all the leads in the Asian-inspired series cast as Caucasians. That's been hard to miss, at least if you're in fandom. But the film is opening this week and the reviews are brutal – even without the casting issue.
The grand poobah of movie reviewers, Roger Ebert, calls it "an agonizing experience." While I'm not sure where he's getting some of his facts,* little is spared from his critique, including ILM's effects. (Ouch.)
*The story takes place in the future? Not in the cartoon. Misunderstanding or Shyamalanism?
Other reviewers aren't much kinder: It's currently running at 9% on Rotten Tomatoes. And even one of the few positive reviews calls Shyamalan's script "wooden."
While it's hard to predict the reaction of consumers who propelled the brain–sucking Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen to #2 at the box office last year, between Shyamalan's reeling reputation, the already overwhelmingly negative reviews, and the alienation of a core base of fans, things aren't looking so good.
The most we can hope for is that the cartoon comes out unscathed: For fans, I can recommend Avatar: The Last Airbender – The Art of the Animated Series, which I finished this afternoon. It's art and sketches from the original show, a nice look into the world the cartoon, and if you like Art of books, it's hard to go wrong.

STONINGTON: "An Outing to Oceanville," the Stonington Public Library's tenth annual house tour on Friday, July 13, from 1 to 4 p.m., will feature five houses. The tour is a benefit for the library. All of this year's homes are located in Oceanville and most are hidden from the main road. The tour begins just before the bridge to Whitmore Neck (Oceanville) with two contrasting vacation homes—one an 1800's era house and the other a modernist structure designed by Emily Muir. Three homes are on Oak Hill Lane, with its rolling lawns and breath-taking views of Southeast Harbor. One home features an indoor swimming pool while another has its very own Petanque court.
Tickets for the tour are $15 and available at the library as well as from the following island merchants: Dockside Books and Gifts, Island Approaches, Boyce's Motel, and the Dry Dock, all in Stonington, and from the Turtle Gallery in Deer Isle. Tickets are also available from the Stonington Library board members. On the day of the tour, tickets will be on sale in front of the library. Tickets sell fast, so get yours soon and prepare to go on an Outing to Oceanville.

Well that's all from tonight's game. A solid win for the Knights who are now equal second, but a disappointing one for the Raiders. We'll catch you next time.
FULLTIME: The Knights produced a dominant second half to record their third win of the season, beating the Raiders 28-12. Trailing 12-10 at the break, the Knights scored three unanswered tries, with prop Adam Cuthbertson getting a double. The Raiders are now 1-3 and desperately need to bounce back against the Roosters next Sunday at Canberra Stadium. Jack Wighton didn't finish the game with a wrist injury, while Knights skipper Kurt Gidley didn't play in the second half with concussion.
GOAL: Roberts converts, but it's all academic from here on in. Knights 28; Raiders 12
TRY: Better buy a lotto ticket - Adam Cuthbertson's scored a double! No-one can't believe it, the ''time him with a sun dial'' prop scoots past Joel Edwards to seal the game for the Knights. Knights 26; Raiders 12
This one's over. Shaun Berrigan fumbles a play the ball to give the Knights the ball back. A terrible mistake in an ordinary team performance.Back to top
Another composed kick from the Knights to force an extra set. Not much the Raiders could do about that as six Knights pounced on Jarrod Croker in his own-goal. But the Raiders get a break when Uate knocks on a loose ball 20m out with an open tryline.
Wooshka! Tackling machine Shaun Fensom cops a Josh McCrone fair in the head in the one of the best falcons you'd see. Fensom's had a fair game - more than 50 tackles and a few offloads to boot.
A pivotal moment in this game, the video ref called on to see if Joel Thompson has grounded the ball in the left corner. He's lost control of it in attempting to ground the ball, planting it on the foot of McKinnon. The red light flashes and the Knights hang on.
Jack Wighton is off for the Raiders with a wrist injury. Joel Thompson moves to the centres, shifting Jarrod Croker to the left wing where Wighton was.
GOAL: Roberts converts. The Knights can win it here in the next five minutes if they can continue to dominate field position. Knights 22; Raiders 12Back to top
TRY: Twisting and turning, big Adam Cuthbertson barges his way over the line to extend the Knights' lead. It's his first try since 2011, a just reward for a powerful effort up the middle tonight. Knights 20; Raiders 12 KTC
Knights getting in the grind, not making any errors and pinning the Raiders within their own 20m on kick returns. It's not pretty or overly exciting, but exactly the way you want to play with the lead.
The Raiders falling back into old habits with simple errors. This time it's McCrone pushing the pass to take the pressure off the Knights.
Jack Wighton staying on the field for now after appearing to injury his wrist.
As soon as I give Robinson a wrap, he sprays a kick-off out on the full. It's all the Knights now, massive momemtum behind them with the home crowd.Back to top
GOAL: Roberts takes over the kicking duties with Gidley on the sidelines. Roberts converts. Knights 16; Raiders 12
TRY: But not as impressive as Tyrone Roberts, the fill-in Knights half slicing his way past Josh Papalii for his second try of the season. Papalii's looking one way, Roberts goes the other and the Knights are back in the lead. Knights 14; Raiders 12 KTC
Four Raiders combine to stop Alex McKinnon from planting the ball over the try-line. Geez, McKinnon's looking good in the centres.
With Josh Dugan still clubless, Reece Robinson continues to stake his claim as the Raiders' long-term fullback with a great piece of stepping to evade several defenders. Robinson hasn't missed a beat in the No 1 jersey.
This shoulder charge rule is an absolute joke. How there wasn't a penalty against Buderus for his hit on Ferguson, I've got no idea. Willie Mason comes over the top and smashes Ferguson to spark a bit of aggro between the two teams.Back to top

myT BRAF, the first product in the myT Primer line, is now available directly from Swift. myT BRAF can detect 1% mutant BRAF V600E/K present in a background of 103 wild-type genomic DNA copies with no breakthrough amplification from wild-type. myT BRAF performs well with either FFPE or fresh frozen samples. Each myT BRAF package includes sufficient reagents to assess up to 28 samples plus a positive and a negative control.
Additional myT Primer reagents will be coming soon, including myT BRAF–Ultra, an ultrasensitive version that provides 0.01% sensitivity—even single copy capability—with very low breakthrough amplification from wild-type. This level of sensitivity makes myT BRAF-Ultra ideal for use when the sample material is limiting or where the target is present at very low concentration, such as with circulating tumor cells (CTCs), serum, plasma and needle biopsies. Swift is also developing a set of myT KRAS primers for high sensitivity detection of mutations in codons 12 and 13.

Steelers' Clark fined $40,000 for hit
Steelers safety Ryan Clark was fined $40,000 by the NFL because of a hit on a defenseless receiver during Sunday's game against Baltimore.
Clark was called for hitting tight end Ed Dickson illegally during the second half of the Steelers' 23-20 loss.
It was the largest fine handed down to the Steelers since James Harrison was fined $75,000 for a hit on Cleveland receiver Mohamed Massaquoi last year. That fine was later reduced to $50,000.
It was the second time in as many weeks that Clark was fined. He was fined $15,000 for hitting New England tight end Rob Gronkowski out of bounds last week.
"I led with my shoulder and did everything possibly right and to be fined $40,000, I just don't understand," Clark said.
Clark said that Steelers coach Mike Tomlin notified him of the fine after receiving an email from the league office.
"I think it is the most ridiculous • you know, I took the last one good," Clark said. "I didn't know the guy was out of bounds and I kept playing and I can see why you call something like that. If you watch the film in slow-motion, by the time the play is over, my back is almost turned to him to make sure that my helmet was out of the way."
The Steelers have now been fined as reported 12 times this year for a total of $182,500.
Clark said he will appeal the fine.

On Dec. 18, the MBA Insurance Agency held a free workshop for MBA members, providing many attorneys with necessary information to make informed decisions about health insurance. With the recent enactment of the Massachusetts Health Care Reform Law, requiring all uninsured residents of the commonwealth to obtain health insurance, many firms and attorneys are in the process of re-evaluating their insurance options.
MBA Insurance Agency President Terence J. Welsh, CPCU, AIS, and Robert A. Levitt, CLU, CHFC of MB Insurance LLC, provided participating members a brief overview of the mandates outlined by the Massachusetts Health Care Reform Law. Tailoring the workshop to the participants, most discussion revolved around the impact of the new law on employers with fewer than 11 full-time equivalent employees. Levitt outlined different small group health insurance plans offered by various Massachusetts carriers, to give members an opportunity to review potential policies.
"The MBA can access all plan designs," said Levitt. "If you call with a request to find a plan with a $25 co-pay, we can transfer you on the spot to a specialist to get you a package. We will work with you directly to set-up a plan."
The new legislation has established a Commonwealth Health Insurance Connector Authority, to connect individuals and small businesses with affordable insurance through private insurers. This Connector Authority also provides Commonwealth Care, a new health insurance product available to low-wage earners.
As a result of the new Reform Law, there are penalties for individuals who do not have health insurance by Jan.1, 2008. Those individuals will have a $219 bump on their 2007 tax return. If you are a Mass. resident and do not have insurance in 2008, you will be fined 50 percent of the lowest priced plan that Connector Authority provides, based on your age, family and location, with the fine accumulating each month against your tax refund.
"Starting on Jan. 1, 2008, insurance companies will be mailing a 1099HC form to all insurers," said Levitt. "There will be a new spot on the tax return form for 1099HC, with specific information that needs to be answered. This will be the self-reporting way [to the state] to see if you are covered."
Many workshop participants voiced concerns about pre-existing conditions and the penalties related to changing from one insurance carrier to another.
"The MBA works with Levitt because companies change their rates all the time," said Welsh. "Plans keep getting more complicated instead of less complicated. The MBA makes sure members have a resource to learn about insurance and get questions answered."
Attorney Scott Pitman commended the state for the new health care reform. In the past he has had clients move to this state for its insurance coverage options. Fellow workshop participant Kimberly A. Kramer of Bertuli & McLaughlin, Boston, attended to review options for her firm while they re-evaluate their insurance plans.
For more information about coverage options, visit the MBA Insurance Web site, or call (617) 338-0581 or (413) 788-7878.

They've found a "mass graveyard" of dino bodies in the US state of Utah that had feathers like birds and seemed to be giving up meat when they died.
At some point during the time of the dinosaurs two groups of them swapped eating meat for munching on plants.
The scientists hope the fossils will tell them more about how the dinosaurs changed from a meat diet to plant one.
The site contains hundreds and perhaps thousands of fossils of the dinosaurs, which look to be in between meat-eating dinos and plant-eating ones.
Meat eaters tended to be very lean and fast because they had to catch their food, while the vegetarians were slower and much bigger.
They needed bigger bellies to process the plants into food, which meant they then needed larger legs too, to carry them around.
These fossils of the dinosaurs, named Falcarius utahensis, have larger stomachs and the small teeth of plant-eaters, but would still have been quick-moving and kept the sharp claws of meat-eaters.

MMR mistrust fuels measles risk
A south Wales academic is warning that a crisis of trust over the MMR vaccine is threatening to cause a measles epidemic.
Tom Horlick-Jones, a Cardiff University expert in risk and health, argues that parents are refusing to accept the assurances of politicians and medical experts that the controversial triple jab is safe.
In a joint study with Kent University, he said a climate of mistrust is hampering efforts to restore faith in the vaccine.
And as vaccination rates against measles continue to fall, it is creating the conditions for an epidemic in which children could be seriously harmed or killed.
The fear centres on the MMR vaccine being linked with the symptoms of autism after Dr Andrew Wakefield, then at the Royal Free Hospital in London, said cases of a bowel condition associated with autism were discovered in children soon after they were given the injection.
But government officials have insisted there is no danger and that parents should still immunise their children with the MMR jab.
The study claims that people's suspicion of politicians and official safety assurances over MMR - combined with "distorted" fears raised by media coverage - is increasing the risk of a measles outbreak.
Families end up being more concerned about the alleged, but still unproven, failings of the MMR vaccine rather than the greater - and real risk - of a child being damaged by a measles outbreak.
The review was jointly funded by two government research funding agencies, the Economic and Social Research Council and the Medical Research Council.
Mr Horlick-Jones - a Senior Research Fellow at Cardiff University's School of Social Sciences - said restoring trust in official agencies is likely to be "a very difficult process indeed".
"Individuals take risks because it makes sense to do so within the context of their everyday lives," he said.
"Information about risks needs to be made relevant to them, and that means it must be sensitive to how people make sense of these things, and to their concerns and worries".
"The roots of the crisis appear to lie in the style of contemporary governments, the role of the mass media, and the sometimes complex ways in which individuals perceive and respond to risks.
"The UK Government is highly centralised and sought to restrict information about possible health risks during the BSE crisis, and that experience has done a great deal of damage.
"Whilst the current government is committed, post-BSE, to more openness, parents' response to the MMR campaign suggest they are not convinced that any real change has taken place."
Mr Horlick-Jones added that media activity reinforces fears of "comparatively rare dangers such being killed in a plane crash or having one's child damaged by a vaccine.." while more common dangers such as car accidents are give less attention.

text: The Grigori Rasputin wiki last edited by jazz1987 on 03/20/16 12:27PM View full history Dark Horse:The Mad Monk, Grigori Rasputin was killed on December 16th. He was shot, beaten, stabbed, poisoned, and finally drowned. But this wouldn't stop the insane Russian mystic from being brought back to life. The seven dragons of revelation, the Ogdru Jahad revived his to become their instrument on earth. Rasputins plans began when the Nazis enlisted him as an occult expert, desperate to win the war at any cost. And so Project Ragna Rok began. Rasputin used the Fuhrer's resources and men however, to try to achieve his own goals. The monk wished to create a new Eden on earth - by starting the Apocalypse. This came to fruition, but as Grigori summoned the hell beast that would bring about this inevitable Ragnarok, he was intercepted by Professor Bruttenholm and his team, including the Torch of Liberty. The monster fell in to the hands of the Allies. Only to be raised by Bruttenholm as his son, calling the child Hellboy.Many years later, in nineteen ninety four, it was revealed that Rasputin had taken residence in an ancient Aztec temple under Cavendish Hall. He had awoken Sadu-Hem, one of the three hundred and sixty nine spawn of the Ogdru Jahad, which was being used as his conduit to communicate with his monstrous masters. After their discovery by Hellboy, Rasputin began to lecture the boy about his destiny. Rasputin wished to use the right hand of doom that had imprisoned the Ogdru Jahad to release them from their crystal prisons. However, he was stopped by the arrival of Liz Sherman and Abe Sapien, the former of which set Sadu Hem aflame, and killed both the Hem and Rasputin.But this wouldn't be the end of Rasputin. While Karl Kroenen, Ilsa Haupstein, and Herman Von Klempt attempted to revive the notorious vampire Vladimir Giurescu, Rasputin appeared before Haupstein. He convinced her to place herself inside of an iron maiden, and when she did, the Goddess Hecate used the iron maiden as a body.During the events on Conqueror Worm, Rasputin's ghost appeared once more, in order to inform her that she would be the last of a race of humans. Unfortunately, this would never come to fruition as she was killed by Lobster Johnson. The ghost of Hecate appeared before Rasputin, berating him on his idiocy about how he thought that he would be the one to bring about the Apocalypse. She reminded him that only Hellboy was capable. He's nearly killed by Hecate, but he retreats to the roots of the world tree, where the last of his soul is place in an acorn by the Baba YagaMarvel:Grigori Yefimovich Rasputin was born somewhere in Russia four generations prior to his Great Grandsons Piotr Nikolaievitch Rasputin (Colossus) and Mikhail Rasputin ,as well as his great Granddaughter Illyana Nikolievna (Magik) He also seems to have been an only child. At some point in his life he met with and made a friend by the name of Nathaniel Essex (Mr. Sinister), whether it was with him or alone, Grigori hatched a plan to cheat death. But this plan called upon him to cheat on his then wife, Elena Ivanova (Sister of Ivan), something he had no moral problem doing if it meant he would live again.So he set about sleeping with as many women and impregnating as many of them as he humanly could. And as soon as they would become impregnated he would pour a portion of his soul and life essence into each unborn baby. Binding his soul to theirs. In a way not entirely dissimilar to Azazel's plot of producing multiple progeny with with to free himself from the Brimstone dimension. But he seems to have had the idea first since he dreamed it up 3 generations before Azazel's temporary release by Margali SzardosHe would die soon and would wait, he's being torn and diluted as each of his children reproduced. Until eventually his grandson Vladimir Rasputin amassed enough of Grigori's soul to manifest his personality. When he did Grigori sought out Essex because he knew the next step of his plan couldn't be carried out with out the help of his old friend. Essex, now Mr. Sinister was all too happy to help out his old friend. After all, it would help him in his age old quest to obliterate his former mentor, Apocalypse, the mutant with out home he would never have become Mr. Sinister.So Mr. Sinister helped Grigori in killing off the distant parts of his family tree. Even going so far as to pit Mikhail and Piotr against one another.But when Mikhail refused to kill his own brother he cast himself into the Dark dimension so that he would never die and would remain there totally isolated from the rest of the universes. And even if Grigori and Mr. Sinister managed to kill off all the parts of the family, they would only succeed in making Mikhail into Grigori permanently and this would leave Grigori immortal but eternally banished from Earth.

A Coco de Mer with Silver Mounts
Seychelles, Indian Ocean
This is an unusually long coco de mer beautifully mounted with silver mythical sea creatures; the top opens to reveal a deep box.
Height 39.5 cm (15.75 in)
The Coco de Mer is the largest seed in the world and unique to only two of the islands of the Seychelles, Praslin and Curieuse. This rarity takes six to seven years to mature and another two to germinate and so is now a protected species.
Until the true source of the nut was discovered in 1768 it was believed by many to grow on a mythical tree at the bottom of the sea; European nobles in the sixteenth century would often have the shells of these nuts, washed up on distant shores, cleaned and decorated with valuable jewels as collectibles for their private galleries.
Sailors who first saw the nut floating in the sea imagined that it resembled a woman's buttocks which fanciful association is reflected in one of the plant's archaic botanical names, Lodoicea callipyge; callipyge stems from Greek words meaning 'beautiful rump'.

For a married partner, the marriage must be legal under Australian law. For a de facto partner, the relationship needs to have existed for 6 or 12 months before you lodge the application. The length of the de facto relationship depends on the visa you are applying for.
To include a child as migrating with you in your visa application, the child must:
Your child or stepchild is considered to be dependent if they continue to be wholly or substantially reliant on you for their basic needs (food, clothing and shelter). Acceptable documents that can show a parent-child relationship include:
Some visas require that the child has never been married or in a de facto relationship.
If your child is born after you lodge your application (but before it is decided), you must tell us as soon as possible. You can do this as follows:
If your child is born outside Australia and either parent is an Australian citizen at the time of the child's birth, the child might be eligible for Australian citizenship by descent.
If your child is born in Australia, they are automatically granted the same visa you and your partner hold at the time of the child's birth. If either parent is an Australian citizen or Australian permanent resident at the time of the child's birth, the child might be an Australian citizen by birth.
Australia must fulfil its international obligations in relation to the prevention of child abduction.
If a child is applying for a visa (on their own or as part of a family unit) and they are under 18 years of age, each person who has the legal right to decide where the child lives may be required to either give consent for the visa to be granted, or provide a court order allowing the grant of the visa to the child.
Acceptable documents include certified copies of:
In the case of a stepchild from a former relationship, you must prove you were in a relationship with the child's parent and that you have been awarded:
When there is not enough evidence to support a claimed family relationship, the Department of Immigration and Border Protection (the department) might request you and the relevant family member have DNA tests to confirm the relationship.
If this happens, the department will tell you what you need to do to arrange the test. The department might not accept the results of tests done in any other way. You must pay for requested DNA tests.

Reviews for Cheddar Turkey Casserole
Average Rating
"Needs a bit more spices as the sauce is pretty bland. Accidentally added stuffing mix to be used in another recipe, but it turned out very good! So this actually fixed the blandness... Will def make again with the stuffing mix added in. Did not top with almonds, used cheese instead."
"It is bland."
"My mom and I made it after Thanksgiving with our leftover turkey because we were tired of making sandwiches and eating it plain. We only got to the sauce before we knew we were in love! We didn't have and thyme but it still tasted great without it. We substituted almonds for the leftover pecans my mom uses to make pies. Everything was great and we will definitely be making this again!!"
"My husband and I thought this tasted a little bland. Nothing a little extra black pepper on the top couldn't fix. Next time, I'll add a little extra seasoning while cooking. Otherwise, I thought this was a very easy and complete meal. It was perfect for my three kids. I actually used chicken but can't wait to use it with left-over Thanksgiving turkey."
"Great recipe, just needs a little extra moisture. I would suggest doubling the sauce."
"I liked this, my husband did not. I made it with chicken (what I had on hand) and it was a little bland. I added some kosher salt to my helping which made it tastier. I'll make it again.....but when my hubby is working out of town!"
"I made this yesterday and cut it in half and baked it in a 8 by 8 Pyrex dish"for 30 minutes. It turned out wonderfully! My husband usually only likes deli turkey and turkey at Thanksgiving but he said that he liked this twist on leftover turkey!"
"My husband was a fan. I cut the recipe in half since it is just two of us. And still had some left. It was great!"
"so simple and tasty"
"needs more spice"
"This needs a little more spice but other than that this was a great recipe! Even the pickest eater my family liked it! I will be making this again for sure!"
"Used mustard powder instead of prepared mustard.Nice & cheesy. A very good way to use up that extra turkey!"

Kimberley - "He would have forgiven the person responsible for his death."
These were the words of the widow of Willem "Speedy" Smith, who was killed, allegedly by a matric learner celebrating "Forty Days", during an accident on Friday.
The police in Kimberley have confirmed that they are investigating a case of culpable homicide following the incident, when Smith was killed after being knocked off his bicycle by a Mercedes Benz in DuToitspan Road at around 10am on Friday morning.
Smith was declared dead on the scene, where he lay on the pavement in front of the Halfway House Hotel.
It is alleged that two vehicles, the Mercedes Benz and a Volkswagen Golf, both driven by matric learners from local schools, were racing and skipped a red robot when the Mercedes collided with Smith.
On the scene, police questioned the driver and passengers of the vehicles, some of whom were still dressed in school uniforms.
Only minutes earlier, the DFA received reports of matric learners who were celebrating "Forty Days", speeding and hanging out of vehicles in DuToitspan Road.
Smith's wife, Pamela, on Sunday said that her husband left home for his daily bicycle ride at around 9.30am and that she became worried when he had not returned by 11.45am.
"Speedy was a healthy, energetic 70-year-old who went for a ride on his bicycle every day. I became worried when he did not return at his usual time, but thought he may have taken a longer route. At around midday our pastor called me and said that Speedy had been killed. Police later came to inform me of the accident and said that he had been killed by a matric learner driving a vehicle that skipped a red robot.
"They also told me that they suspected that the driver was under the influence of alcohol," a distraught Smith said.
She added that her husband was a people's person and a teacher of the Word of God.
"He loved people and people loved him. He was a strong believer in God and I do believe he would have forgiven those responsible for his death," she said.
Pamela said she would miss her husband tremendously but added that she knew he was "home" now.
She said that she had met Willem when she was only 11 years old and that they had been married for 46 years.
"Speedy was a protective husband and his death will leave a huge void in my life. While keeping healthy and fit were some of his main interests, he also loved gardening and woodwork," she said.
Neighbours described the couple as "love birds" who could daily be seen walking hand-in-hand through the suburb of Klisserville.
Smith retired 10 years ago after working for Transnet. He leaves behind five sons and 11 grandchildren.
Police spokesman, Lieutenant Olebogeng Tawana, on Sunday urged anyone who witnessed the accident to contact the investigating officer, Constable Gwyneth Paulsen, on 082 302 6407.

2003 Founders' Celebration Events
Communities & Commodities Linking International Trade
& Sustainable Development
March 28, 2003
This panel explored the interaction between global trade and fair labor practices, economic justice, and access to natural resources. Panelists identified key issues concerning those economic, social, and cultural rights and present practical solutions to use trade as a positive force in raising the standard of living for many developing communities.
This panel looked at the positive and negative use of new technologies, specifically addressing genetically-modified consumer products, rights to traditional knowledge, and compulsory licensing of intellectual property. Panelists discussed their perspectives on how to balance those competing concerns in trade and intellectual property.
This interactive panel helped us take the next step – moving the discussions from the drawing board to the operations floor. Panelists engaged in constructive collaboration to develop ideas on how to better link trade and sustainable development and provided an open-forum for audience participation.
