Wilson said a technical flaw when using the driver undermined the 15-year-old's round, and ultimately her tournament.
A co-leader with Jiyai Shin heading into the final round at Royal Canberra, Ko stumbled over the early holes, enjoyed a brief recovery to challenge again, but then slipped to third behind winner Shin and second-placed Yani Tseng.
Already on her way to her next challenge - the Honda LPGA Thailand, which starts on Thursday - Ko has travelled with advice from Wilson about how she can improve.
"The thing that let her down on the final day was her driver, which she had been so confident with during the week - making 14 or 15 fairways on most of the days - and then when it mattered most it didn't work," Wilson said.
"It was purely a technical thing. I guess nerves might have played a part in that because she couldn't figure it out while playing. She did hit a number of three woods when she would normally use driver; she resorted to playing safe on a few occasions which is the thing to do when your key club isn't going great.
"But on the holes when it mattered most when she was on her fightback, the one that would go left would ruin it."
Ko went left off the first tee, hitting into trees. A duffed second shot left her with a double bogey before she bogeyed the second. With playing partner Shin comfortably making par on both, Ko was quickly three back.
Although she rallied to draw level with Shin on the back nine, for once in her already remarkable career, Ko's consistency wasn't there. Shin went clear before Tseng also overtook her. Ko finished on 14-under, two shots behind Taiwan's Tseng, the world No1, and four shots behind South Korea's Shin.
Wilson said her final-round 76, which was three over par, was one of Ko's worst scores in a tournament "since I can remember".
Asked about her state of mind on Sunday night, Wilson said it was one of extreme disappointment.
"She was pretty peed off, really. She could have won the tournament quite easily and she knows that she's good enough to win week to week.
"The one time that she needed it [a consistent round], it fell to pieces. Even if she had shot even par she could have won, I think. And then to not even come second, to come third; regardless of who the players are she's still pretty peed off."
Shin's extremely slow play earned her an official warning as well as several negative comments on social media from those who believed it a ploy to put Ko off, but Wilson said that wasn't a factor.

The Art of Being a Muskie: DESIGNING FROM THE HEART
Marsha Russell '72
Earlier this year, the magazine Elle Décor devoted its cover to the newly-renovated Martha's Vineyard beach home of actress Meg Ryan. The interior designer that Ryan chose for the eighteen-month long renovation and decoration project was Marsha Russell '72.
Marsha is the founder and owner of Satinwood Ltd, an interior design firm in Bedford, New York whose clients include prominent figures in business, the professions and the arts. Satinwood's business has developed entirely through word-of-mouth, ever since Marsha first earned recognition for the renovation of her own Bedford home.
Like most successful entrepreneurs, she "eats, sleeps and breathes" her business and she wouldn't have it any other way. For her, "It's all about people. I think people are fascinating and interesting. It's not about my design. Instead, I help my clients get to the essence of their own aesthetic. This is the fun part."
Her verve and delight in people permeates everything she says, whether referring to her husband, O. Lee Tawes III, as "the best husband on the planet" or to gifted teachers, who "light up the room and make your socks go up and down."
Marsha Russell has always followed her heart. Remembering her campus visit to Muskingum, she recalls that her "senses reeled, I noticed trees and buildings, I remember what I wore and the places I visited." An art major, she loved Muskingum and her studies with professors such as Bill Blakesley and the late Jim Anderson, but at the time "couldn't imagine how to do anything professional with it."
When Marsha graduated, all she knew for certain was that she "wanted to live in a big city and travel." She followed her heart to New York City, "a perfect place for an art lover; you're surrounded, almost bombarded with great design everywhere you look" and became a flight attendant for American Airlines. The experience was "invaluable - travel and exposure to other cultures, architecture, art and amazing people enhanced my life and my work."
Then one day she had a life epiphany. One of the interesting things about life epiphanies is that they often happen at unexpected times. For Marsha, it occurred at her husband's high school reunion where, on a whim, she decided to attend a seminar given for the spouses of alumni. The speaker was another spouse, the noted writer and interior designer Alexandra Stoddard. "A light bulb went off," says Marsha, and she knew what she was meant to do.
Within weeks, she had enrolled in interior design school in New York. She then went to work for a Soho shop that did decorative painting and made hand-painted wallpaper. She saw how designers worked and thought, "I can do that." Her initial projects won great success and in 1996 Satinwood Ltd. was born.
Marsha Russell lives and designs from the heart. This has taken her on a fantastic life journey and to deeply fulfilling professional and personal success. When all is said and done, isn't this what liberal arts is all about?
Why is Muskingum such a special place? There are as many reasons for that as there are Muskies.
But one reason happens every year between Thanksgiving and finals – Christmas on Campus. In this annual tradition, students, faculty and staff provide gifts for area children and their families who otherwise would have no Christmas. Many student organizations – academic, athletic, Greek, honoraries, even entire floors of residence halls – has taken part during the two-decade history of this tradition.
"Everyone deserves a happy Christmas," explained junior Kary Skelley. "We like to give back to the community we live in as well as to our families at home," added sophomore Bethany Sines.
It's a commitment that brings joy and also significant responsibility. "The participating families are hand-picked for us by area agencies and we provide the whole Christmas for them - stockings, cards, toys, clothing and, sometimes, food," said Penny Selock, who initiated and has managed the program for its entire history. (Penny is Assistant to the Vice President for Student Affairs.)
One of the many moments that Penny treasures was when "a Muskingum student contacted me and said that she would like to participate because she had once been a Christmas on Campus child."
It all began 21 years ago with a suggestion from Dr. David Skeen, now professor emeritus of psychology -- instead of buying presents for each other in the offices, give presents to children in need through local agencies. And so a tradition was born. Since then hundreds of children and their families have had happy Christmases from the Muskingum community.
Year after year, student after student and child after child, Christmas on Campus has continued and grown, making a difference not only in the lives of the recipients, but also in the lives of the givers. As senior Kristen Lichtenauer stated, "being part of this program each year plants a seed that goes with you even after you leave Muskingum."
How many U.S. states have Muskingum alumni living in them? All fifty states have Muskingum alumni living in them.

Obama's agenda undeniably will increase pressure on Democrats to maintain a high level of mobilization from their core supporters, because it seems guaranteed to provoke intense opposition and spirited turnout from conservatives. "It will antagonize the same groups of folks over and over again, and they will be spitting mad," says William Galston, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution and a former deputy policy director in the Clinton White House. "They will have been confronted and affronted on every front." In that respect, Obama's second-term direction has more in common with George W. Bush's political strategy, which bet on mobilizing his base with bright-line disputes, than Bill Clinton's, which put greater emphasis on persuading swing voters by bridging the differences between the parties.
Like some other centrist Democrats, Galston worries that Obama's strategy could prove vulnerable if the party's next presidential nominee can't inspire as much turnout among minorities and millennials as he did, and thus must win a larger percentage of moderate white voters resistant to some of the president's new priorities. Obama's direction also presents a challenge for Democratic congressional hopes, and not just because turnout among the minorities and millennials now critical to Democratic success usually falls off in midterm elections. (That falloff was a critical factor in the GOP's 2010 landslide.)
To hold congressional majorities, Democrats must win a larger share of conservative white voters than in presidential races. That's because the two-senator-per state system exaggerates the influence of small preponderantly white rural states and also because the Democratic coalition tends to cluster around big cities, benefiting House Republicans in more exurban and rural districts. Redistricting has compounded that effect. Although Obama beat Mitt Romney by almost 5 million votes, Romney carried at least 225 of the 435 congressional districts, nearly final results show…
If nothing else, Obama's course means that if Democrats are to recapture the House anytime soon, they will likely need to do so by maximizing their gains in districts that have large populations of minorities or suburban socially liberal whites, rather than the blue-collar and rural Blue Dog districts they stressed when they regained the majority in 2006. And that's much more likely to happen in a presidential year such as 2016, when minorities and young people turn out in much larger numbers, than in an off year such as 2014, when the electorate tilts back toward the older whites largely opposed to Obama's new thrust.

SAN FRANCISCO -- Half-dressed men were yelling at a television set. The 49ers players stood in the home locker room at Candlestick Park and screamed like junior high cheerleaders at a running back 2,000 miles away.
"Go!" they shouted at Adrian Peterson, the Vikings' ball carrier as he trundled toward field goal range. "Come on! Go! Go! Go!"
Peterson went. Much applause followed. A minute later, so did a Minnesota field goal attempt. It lofted toward a goal post to defeat Green Bay. More loud, half-naked cheering ensued.
So. Guess that settles the issue of how happy the 49ers are to receive an extra week of rest before starting the playoffs Jan. 12 with a home game against Green Bay, Washington or Seattle.
The truth is, the 49ers did not just hope and desire the bye week before that first postseason game. They desperately needed it. They needed it worse than Gangnam needs Style. Needed it worse than Jim Harbaugh needs khaki pants. Needed it worse than Acai Berry supplements need spam email.
For the record, though, some 49er players did not buy that argument. Despite their delight over the bye week, said tight end Vernon Davis, they would have been just fine playing next weekend.
"I'm great -- if there's a game tomorrow, I'm ready," Davis said.
Except that the 49ers did not look great Sunday. They looked pretty good, off and on. And as they slogged through an expected 27-13 victory over the Arizona Cardinals, it was apparent that this was a team that could use a break to rest up, heal up and resharpen its football edge.
Also, there is this undeniable fact: Over the course of 49ers history, all five of the franchise's winning Super Bowl teams reached the game after earning a bye week in the playoff tournament. None got there otherwise.
"Really?" asked tight end Delanie Walker, sitting alongside Davis. "I didn't know that. I don't think anyone in here does."
So the bye week clearly matters a lot.
"No, I don't think it makes a difference," Walker disagreed. "This is a new era. We're a new 49er team."
We are going to find out. After Sunday's final play, in the head coach's postgame session with reporters, Harbaugh allowed that his group wasn't perfect.
"You'd always like to be better," Harbaugh said. "And there are some areas that we can improve in."
Such as?
"We'll talk about that with our team and we'll tell them," Harbaugh said, following his usual practice of, as he says, not peeling back the onion.
However, this column has no such anti-onion-peeling policy. So let's list the largest areas of concern that the 49ers need to address over the next 12 days, based on Sunday's performance.
The biggest question mark remains at quarterback, where new man Colin Kaepernick has shown enough of an oh-wow factor to get people excited about what he might produce in January -- but he's also gone through stretches where his timing has been disrupted and he's grown discombobulated.
Sunday, Kaepernick was stymied in the first quarter by bad field position and a seeming fixation on getting the ball to receivers not named Michael Crabtree. But as the game progressed and offensive coordinator Greg Roman dialed up plays that allowed Crabtree to find more space against a vulnerable Arizona defense, things were much better. There might be no better yards-after-catch receiver in the NFL right now.
It remains puzzling that Kaepernick cannot find tight end Davis more often. Given his superior performance in the postseason last year, that should be a priority. Davis returned from a concussion last week in Seattle to accumulate just one catch Sunday for 5 yards and absorbed another crushing hit. Afterward, Davis said he was fine. But another week off should make him even more fine -- and perhaps give Roman more ways to scheme more plays for him.
Another positive development entering the postseason is the relative health of running back Frank Gore, who scored another touchdown Sunday. A year ago, he was sore all over entering the playoffs. Now, he's sore only in certain black-and-blue locations. In two weeks, those locations might shrink in size.
So that's the good stuff. Now the bad: Placekicking continues to be the 49ers' most troubling ulcer. David Akers' two missed field goals and an apparent injurious hit on an extra-point attempt did not ease worries. Two weeks could give the 49ers time to sign a replacement. It's strange that Harbaugh, so eager to improve his team in the smallest increments, has refused to improve it in such a critical area.
Yet the biggest bye week beneficiary might be Justin Smith, the defensive tackle who has a partially torn left triceps tendon and missed his second straight game Sunday. Despite his absence, the 49er pass rush did improve some from last week in Seattle -- although outside linebacker Aldon Smith failed to get a sack for the third consecutive game -- but it will still be a different defense when Justin Smith gets back on the field.
That is, if he gets back on the field. Smith's injury is of the same ilk as the injury sustained by Ray Lewis, the Baltimore linebacker, back in mid-October. Lewis has not yet returned to action. You have to believe that Smith will line up and give it a go in two weeks, even if he has to play with one good arm. But two more weeks of therapy will also help.
"This bye lets some of those guys heal," said Delanie Walker, "and get some extra time in conditioning and working out. It'll give Vernon some extra time to come back, Justin Smith too. I think this will be great for us."
Not merely great. Necessary. Seriously necessary.

Could this device prevent your teen from texting and driving?
SEATTLE - It's the fear of nearly all parents - teens behind the wheel with a cell phone in their hands. In fact, one in four teens admits to checking his or her phone while driving at least once a day.
But what it they couldn't without an unpleasant consequence?
That's the idea behind a device called OrigoSafe, which makes the dangerous practice of texting and driving difficult and undesirable.
OrigoSafe is an ignition interlock system that turns your child's cell phone into a second car key.
"You put your cell phone in a docking station that's connected to your ignition and your parking brake," says David Musyt, marketing director with Virginia-based Origo. "You cannot start your vehicle without (placing) the phone in the docking station."
If the driver takes the phone out of the dock while driving, an alarm sounds until the phone is replaced. That's when your teenager's real problems begin.
Undocking the phone "unauthorizes" it as a key. Next time the driver tries to start the car, it won't work. The driver will have to call home and get a new one-time code from Mom or Dad.
"So not only do they have to call their parents to get authorization to restart the car," Musyt says, "but they also have to have a discussion with that parent about distracted driving."
That awkward conversation is the real deterrent to chatting or texting behind the wheel, Musyt says.
"We've let a lot of very bright teenagers try to defeat our unit, and they have not been able to go around it," Musyt says.
Origo hopes the product will catch on in Washington state, which has some of the most restrictive distracted driving laws in the country
Musyt says OrigoSafe is not just for parents and kids. Businesses that operate vehicle fleets may wish to install the device, too.
A phone docked in the OrigoSafe faces away from the driver. But it will still work with Blue Tooth devices, allowing for hands-free operations.
OrigoSafe costs $274 for the hardware, and another $125 for installation.

Cornell vs. Michigan
College Hockey returns to Madison Square Garden featuring two of the nation's top teams. For the first time in Garden history, the Big Red from Cornell will host the Michigan Wolverines. Don't miss a rematch from last year's NCAA tournament when the Big Red battles the Wolverines at the World's Most Famous Arena.
With three wildly successful sold-out games at Madison Square Garden in 2007, 2009 and 2011, Cornell University's Meakem*Smith Director of Athletics and Physical Education Andy Noel announced today that the men's hockey team will return to the "World's Most Famous Arena" for "The Frozen Apple" against the University of Michigan on November 24, 2012. The non-conference NCAA Division I men's ice hockey match-up features perennial powers in a rematch of an NCAA Midwest Regional semifinal in March, which culminated with an overtime goal for the victorious Big Red.
"This is a fantastic opportunity to play another top-notch program in college hockey at such a great venue," said Mike Schafer, the Jay R. Bloom '77 Head Coach of Men's Hockey at Cornell. "We're very excited to play Michigan. Year after year, they're a great program and always have a team in contention for a national championship."
Both schools have proud college hockey traditions with significant ties to each other in both the immediate and distant past. The all-time series is tied, 3-3-1, with the last clash coming in an NCAA game on March 23, with Cornell winning 3-2 in overtime.
The programs first met on January 2, 1965, with Michigan skating away with a 7-1 victory at Lynah Rink in Ithaca, N.Y. Cornell won on the same date 23 years later, 6-3, in the Yale Hockey Classic at Ingalls Rink. The teams then met in 1991 in an NCAA East Regional first-round series at Michigan's Yost Ice Arena. The Wolverines won the series, two games to one. The only other game between the programs was a 3-3 tie on January 7, 1997 at Yost during Schafer's second season at the helm of the Big Red.
The University of Michigan has won the national championship nine times (1948, 1951, 1952, 1953, 1955, 1956, 1964, 1996 and 1998), which is more than any other program at the Division I level. Cornell has claimed the title twice (1967, 1970). The two schools have seen scores of former players forge careers in the National Hockey League, including the likes of Douglas Murray, Matt Moulson, Colin Greening, Ken Dryden and Joe Nieuwendyk (Cornell), as well as Marty Turco, Mike Cammalleri and Mike Komisarek (Michigan).
Cornell participated in the three-year Red Hot Hockey series of games between the Big Red and Boston University in front of 18,200 passionate students, alumni, parents and fans on each occasion. The inaugural game, held on November 24, 2007, marked the first time a collegiate hockey game had sold out at Madison Square Garden, and featured the attendance of prominent alumni from both schools, including former NHL great and Cornell alum Joe Nieuwendyk. The schools' collective hockey-enthused fan bases produced another sell out on November 28, 2009 and again on November 26, 2011.
"We have seen the enthusiasm for college hockey at Madison Square Garden with the sold-out Red Hot Hockey games over the past few years, and to bring back the Big Red against the Michigan Wolverines is an enticing matchup for New York hockey fans," said Joel Fisher, executive vice president, MSG Sports. "Once again, we look forward to showcasing college hockey at 'The World's Most Famous Arena' this fall."

POMONA — Officers responding to complaints from residents about drug and prostitution activity in their neighborhood arrested a Rialto man Sunday morning and confiscated about $5,000 in methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia, officials said.
Jay Charter, 55, of Rialto was arrested on suspicion of of sales of methamphetamine Sunday morning, according to a Pomona Police Department release.
An officer was conducting extra patrol at the Lemon Tree Motel at 1700 Gillette Rd. shortly after 7 a.m. due to numerous complaints from neighbors about illegal activities taking place at the motel, officials said. Authorities learned one of the people staying at the motel had active warrants. Officers contacted the man, identified as Charter, and found about two ounces of methamphetamine in Charter's room. The drugs have an estimated street value of about $5,000.
A further search of the room yielded a scale commonly used in the sales of drugs such as meth, according to the release.
Authorities remind residents they can ask the police station for extra patrols if they see illegal activity in their neighborhoods.

Even though I love to cook, nothing makes me happier than finding an easy recipe that tastes great. Kristen from Dine and Dish says these Herbed Chicken Breasts are simple and delicious, and what could be better than that?
The Food Section featured this dish of Roasted Chicken with Cherry Tomatoes which I thought looked just wonderful, and great for the South Beach Diet too. He found the recipe on The Wednesday Chef, who found it in the new Bon Appetit Cookbook, one of my faves, so you see how these great tasting dishes can get around.
When I saw this recipe for Chicken with Goat Cheese and Arugula on Simply Recipes, I thought to myself, what's not to love about that? Everything in the chicken is completely South Beach friendly, but serve with cauliflower instead of the potatoes.
Finally, from FamilyStyle Food comes a chicken dish that's a little out of the ordinary. I thought this Cashew Chicken with Roasted Spiced Chickpeas sounded fantastic; just use Uncle Ben's Converted rice or brown rice to keep it South Beach friendly.

Thread: Who Killed the Electric Car?
Hybrid View
Who Killed the Electric Car?
For those who are interested in gaining a better understanding about the demise of my former car: The General Motors EV1, the ultimate hybrid:
I highly recommend that you see the new movie "Who Killed the Electric Car" being released by Sony Classic Pictures. It is opening in a few cities this month and will follow elsewhere soon.
I saw a draft cut of WKtEC at the Sundance Film Festival and highly recommend it for anyone who:
- likes cars
- likes fast cars
- likes efficient cars
- likes cars that are efficient AND fast
- likes clean air
- drives (whether you like it or not)
- hates war
- likes alternative energy
- hates to go to the gas station
- hates getting their car serviced
- loves hybrids
- hates hybrids
- loves Michigan
- hates Michigan
- cares if other people do any of the above
It shows a lot of actual footage of the EV1 and other production electric vehicles that were built and then destroyed by all the major auto manufacturers. In an interesting way, it discusses why these vehicles were killed and why we need or don't need them from perspectives ranging from Enviromentalists, car enthusiasts, liberals, conservatives, to an ex-CIA director.
From this movie, you will get a better understanding of why we get such pathetic performance (MPG and acceleration) from today's hybrids. You'll be able to understand why there are so few hybrid options available (no sunroofs, mini-vans, wagons, convertibles, diesel hybrids, sports cars, etc) and why there are so few models available from US or European manufacturers.
The following is the list of opening locations that I took from another list:

Today I was watching my 5 year old daughter read a book to herself. I decided to record it because it was really cute. Almost halfway through the video, you will see where she stops what she is doing and stares straight ahead. It lasts probably 3-4 seconds and then she goes back to doing what she was doing. It totally caught me by surprise. Our 7 year old son has absence epilepsy...diagnosed at age 4. So, a random person may not have noticed it but it totally caught my attention as I have seen that stare many times before.
(Ignore her licking the pages of the book.....she learned that from her 65 year old kindergarten teacher that licks her fingers to turn the page!) haha!!
Here is a link to the video:
Thanks for any feedback. I don't want to go through this hell with another child. It has been a rough road for my son, but I think we finally have him stabilized on lamotrogine with few side effects.
Thank you.

For Immediate Release
April 4, 2012
ASHBURN, Va. The National Football League announced its 2012 preseason schedule today, and the Washington Redskins four-game slate begins with road contests against the Buffalo Bills and Chicago Bears in Weeks 1 and 2 and finishes with home games against the Indianapolis Colts and Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Weeks 3 and 4. Specific dates and times for all games will be determined at a later date.
The meeting between the Redskins and Bills will be the 16th between the teams in preseason play all-time. The Redskins hold an 8-5 advantage in the preseason series with the Bills, having last faced them in Week 1 of the 2010 preseason. That game was Executive Vice President/Head Coach Mike Shanahans first preseason game with Washington, resulting in a 42-17 Redskins victory.
The Redskins face the Bears in Week 2 in the teams first preseason meeting since 1976. The Redskins are 4-7 against the Bears all-time in preseason play. The last Redskins preseason victory against the Bears came on Sept. 9, 1973, when the Redskins defeated the Bears, 17-3.
Washingtons preseason home opener at FedExField is scheduled for Week 3, when the Redskins will face the Colts in the preseason for a team-record-setting 21st time in preseason play. With a 16-3 preseason win in Indianapolis last season, the preseason record between the Redskins and Colts stands even at 10-10. The game will feature the two teams currently holding the first two picks in the 2012 NFL Draft.

Rash of hoax calls plague Coast Guard
SEATTLE -- From a family in a sinking boat to a grisly discovery along the beach, the Coast Guard has heard it all.
The radio calls are usually legitimate, but that hasn't been the case recently. The Coast Guard said a number of hoax distress calls came in at the end of May and beginning of June.
"I need assistance. Got a baby on board and two adults," said a male voice somewhere near the Hoodsport area.
Petty Officer Katelyn Shearer with the Coast Guard said a 47-foot boat and helicopters were scrambled but were unable to find any vessel having trouble.
"We searched for hours and found absolutely nothing," she said.
The very next day, a man with a similar voice radioed a disturbing find.
"I found a body on Seabeck," he said.
That call raised serious concern with the Coast Guard and aroused suspicion and frustration.
"We search as if we are searching for members of our own family," Shearer said.
She said the false calls cost the Coast Guard over $200,000. Shearer said the frustration isn't just about the money, but also the danger for those on the water.
"It's the same thing with a false 911 call. If police are out responding to a call that wasn't an emergency they may not be available to respond to a real emergency," she said.
Making a hoax call is a felony and can send a fake caller to prison for up to ten years.

Capital Stage to Present Sacramento Premiere of THE NORTH PLAN, 1/23-2/24
Capital Stage continues its 2012-13 "Season of Power Plays" with the Sacramento premiere of Jason Wells' THE NORTH PLAN, a dizzying dark comedy that asks: What would ordinary Americans do if the U.S. government fell into tyranny? THE NORTH PLAN runs from January 23 through February 24th with a press opening on January 26th.
Performances for THE NORTH PLAN will begin with three previews on Wednesday, January 23 at 7pm and Thursday & Friday January 24 & 25 at 8pm. The production will open on Saturday, January 26 at 8pm. Performances continue for five-weeks through February 24. Showtimes will be Wednesdays at 7pm, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 8pm, and Sundays at 2pm.

Tickets are currently available at the Capital Stage Box Office, by phone at 916-995-5464 or online at www.capstage.org.
The unchecked growth of America's security/surveillance/detention complex is taken to its worst possible conclusion, in this hilarious dark comedy. In the not too distant future, the U.S. government is torn asunder by a military coup and the flag-waving goons behind it begin rounding up anyone who might be a threat to the regime. The only hope for the country is Carlton, a State Department employee and Tanya, the most unlikely political thriller heroine you've ever encountered.
Jason Wells's first play, MEN OF TORTUGA, had a critically-acclaimed debut at Steppenwolf Theatre's First Look Repertory of New Work, went on to a successful run at the Asolo Repertory Theatre in Sarasota, and returned to Chicago for a production at Profiles Theatre. It has also received productions at Apollinaire Theatre Company in Massachusetts; Furious Theatre Company in Pasadena; Purple HeArt Theatre in Dublin, Ireland; and Street Corner Arts in Austin. Jason's second play, PERFECT MENDACITY, was a commission from Manhattan Theatre Club and the Sloan Foundation. Like MEN OF TORTUGA it debuted at Steppenwolf and went on to its official world premiere at the Asolo. In 2010, it was a finalist for the American Theatre Critics Association's Steinberg/New Play Award, and won the ATCA M. Elizabeth Osborn Award. THE NORTH PLAN debuted at Steppenwolf's First Look in 2010, and had its official world premiere at Portland Center Stage in Portland, Oregon in 2011.
Jason is also an actor with numerous TV, film, and stage credits.

Capital Stage Company's mission is to be a dynamic leader in the evolution of the contemporary live theatre landscape in the Capital region and to passionately engage audiences in the art of live storytelling with bold, innovative plays performed by professional artists, in an intimate, up close setting. With a strong commitment to expanding the base of working artists in the greater Sacramento region, we shall develop a company of actors, directors, writers, designers, and technical staff who are dedicated to bringing bold, lively productions of contemporary and classic plays to our community.
While part of the mission of any theater company is to entertain its audience, we at Capital Stage feel strongly that the productions we mount address issues that are vital to understanding the society we live in and ourselves as human beings in that society. We address themes of power and manipulation in relationships between men and women, children and parents, and organizations and individuals. We invite audiences to question the ethics and meaning of art, the definitions of sanity and intelligence, and the line between exploitation and legitimate relationship. We believe that in a large and growing urban environment, where individuals and groups are constantly bombarded with information and demands for decisions, the need for thoughtful examination of our interactions in society has never been greater.

No doubt, heading into last year's NBA draft, one of the most intriguing players on the board was Iowa State forward Royce White. His talent and versatility was obvious, but what has been intriguing about White as a player so far is that we have yet to see any semblance of that talent in an actual game.
And it might never happen. Asked during an interview on Sirius/XM Radio whether he could wind up not playing in the NBA at all, White said, "I think the chances of that are very high."
White has an anxiety disorder that includes a fear of flying. When the Rockets used the 16th pick in the draft to select White, they were well aware of his condition. White did play for the Rockets in Summer League and spent the first week of training camp with the team devising a plan that would allow him to play by traveling by bus as he worked on his disorder. But the situation between the Rockets and White deteriorated, with the player saying that his mental health would come before his NBA career.
White has been away from the team for nearly two months, and refused his assignment to the D-League earlier this week. He has frequently made the point that part of his problem is that he came into a league that has no protocol when it comes to mental health of players.
"Business in America, as we all know, is about one thing and that's convenience and efficiency," White said in the interview. "And oftentimes what the efficient thing to do is not the healthiest thing to do, right? That's why we still sell cigarettes. It wouldn't shock me if we couldn't be logical and say a protocol is needed because it'll be the hard thing to do. If that's the case then so be it. I stand on what I say and I refuse to put myself in a hazardous situation to play a sport."
White said he has not sought a trade, and that he does not blame the Rockets for the problem — no matter where he went in the NBA, he said, the same conditions would exist.
"I don't see that going to another team would help anything because no matter what team I go to a protocol is still going to need to be put in place," White said. "It's a league thing. The reality is that it is not Houston's fault. As much as we always want to try and blame one side or the other and try and find the black and white in it, it's not black and white. It's gray. And they've been thrown into a position now where they're forced to make things up as they go because a protocol has not been put in place for mental health up until this point. And that's tough for anybody to do.
"If there were no safety or health codes on how to construct a building, the people who are going to try to build a building tomorrow are going to be in trouble. That's just the reality here so I don't really think going to another team is something that would be better. And it's not something that I want to do. I want to play for Houston."

A MUM from Basildon is the first person in the country to have been spared jail for possessing a gun.
Tamasin Mott, 48, found the First World War pistol, belonging to her late father while clearing out his home about four years ago and had kept it locked away in a safe.
However, in January, her estranged husband told Essex Police she had the weapon, after a bitter row over their divorce.
Officers raided her house and found the gun, along with ammunition.
Mrs Mott was then arrested and charged with possessing a firearm without a licence.
Yesterday at Basildon Crown Court, Judge Owen Davies QC said Mott's case had "exceptional circumstances" and decided to waive the usual automatic fiveyear jail sentence.
Instead he handed her an 18- month prison sentence, suspended for 12 months.
Judge Davies said: "This is an unusual case.
"You have no previous convictions and your friends and neighbours and have provided an extraordinarily high collection of praises. A collection not seen often in a criminal court.
"I do not see that there is much likelihood of you being convicted of any further offence.
"There is no single case that legal counsel can find where someone has not been imprisoned for possessing a fire arm without a certificate.
"But there is also no case the authorities have been able to find which matches this one.
"Had you been more thoughtful of the draconian measures that possessing a firearmwould bring, you may not have kept it."
The court heard Mott's father, Mr Webster, was a war veteran who had served in the Scots Guards.
Sometime in the Seventies, he had gone to a pub in Essex tomeet other former soldiers and swap war memorabilia.
The court heard he had been given a silver, Spanish, 7.65 calibre pistol by another veteran in exchange for a few pints of beer.
Mr Webster had taken it home, showed his wife and then hidden it in a cupboard under her sewing basket.
The court heard Mr Webster died in 1981 and the gun remained hidden in the sewing until 2010 when Mrs Webster decided to move house.
Mott found the gun, which she believed to be a family heirloom, and told her mum she would look after it at her home in Basildon.
Mott locked it in a safe at her home along with the family's passports.
The court heard at some point she lost the key to the safe and the family forgot all about the gun.
On January 6, Mott and her husband Frank, who are going through a divorce, had a row about the electricity bill.
Mr Mott drove to Basildon police station and told officers his wife had threatened to shoot him and she had a gun in the house.
Officers raided the house.
Mott told them she had her father's old pistol in a safe. but she had lost the keys.
The fire service was called and officers managed to crack the safe.
Forensic tests by a firearms expert found the gun, made in Spain in about 1914, had not been loaded or fired for a long time.
The court heard Mott had subsequently moved out of the family home with her 12-year-old child after allegations of domestic violence.
Judge Davies accepted the gun had been kept by Mott as a family heirloom and there was never any intention for it to be used.
At the end of the hearing he ordered the gun be destroyed.

Wayne C. Sargent, a former senior vice president of United Press International and past member of The Herald's readers advisory committee, died Saturday Nov. 3 after a sudden illness.
Mr. Sargent, 87, had moved to Carmel in 1986 after retiring as editor of the San Bernardino Sun. He also had been president and publisher of the Nashville Banner after spending 24 years with UPI, which was the Associated Press' primary competition for decades.
"Wayne was incredibly insightful about journalism and the newspaper industry," said Royal Calkins, editor of The Herald. "Having coffee with him was like attending a graduate seminar on marketing, circulation and newswriting."
Mr. Sargent was born in Brooklyn, N.Y., but raised in Northern California. After graduating early from Los Gatos High School, he enrolled at San Jose State College at age 15. Two years later, he enlisted in the U.S. Army Air Corps. He washed out as a pilot, however, and was assigned to the Signal Corps.
He later obtained a journalism degree from Stanford and joined UPI in 1948, working as a correspondent in San Francisco, Las Vegas and Sacramento. He attended the national nominating conventions from 1948 until 1960. He was the first to report that Earl Warren would become chief justice of the Supreme Court.
From 1960 to 1964, he coordinated the wire service's coverage of racial unrest and the civil rights movement in the South. He said he was banned from the California Senate once for writing a story about how a committee would vote.
Relatives told the San Bernardino Sun that he had a photographic memory. Grandniece Pam Shaw of Sacramento said he could flip through a deck of cards and recall the order."
"He was an amazing and brilliant man," she said. "He did a lot of things I would have liked to have done."
Mr. Sargent was preceded in death by his wife of 53 years, Marybeth Derham Sargent. In addition to grandniece Pamela Shaw and her husband, Gregory, he is survived by their three children and spouses, their seven grandchildren and his close friend Marie Saulsbury.
Mr. Sargent moved to the business side of UPI in 1960 in Los Angeles, selling UPI subscriptions to all but one Southern California paper before moving on the manage UPI sales operations in the South. He established the first wire service bureau at Cape Canaveral. He was promoted to senior vice president for marketing in New York, where he spent eight years.
Mr. Sargent's career made a full circle when he returned to daily journalism as editor of the San Bernardino newspaper. There, he helped many others launch their careers. He hired and mentored business writer Russ Stanton, who would go on to become editor of the Los Angeles Times.
"I only had two years of reporting experience at the time, and I remember him asking me some questions about finance during the interview that I couldn't answer," said Stanton. "He hired me anyway, took an interest in my development, and a year later I got to attend a career-changing economics and fellowship program for journalists at the University of Missouri."
Before his health declined, Mr. Sargent was a dedicated golfer, mostly at Quail Lodge in Carmel Valley. He had actively supported a golf scholarship there, and his family requests that any remembrances be in the form of contributions to the Quail Scholarship in care of the Jim Tunney Youth Foundation, Box 1440, Pebble Beach 93953.

PPP's newest look at the Montana Senate race finds it has tightened considerably over the last eight months. John Walsh now trails Steve Daines only 46/39 in his quest to be elected for a full term. That represents a 10 point gain for Walsh since November when he trailed Daines by 17 points at 52/35.
Walsh and Daines have very similar approval numbers. Walsh is on slightly positive ground at a 38/37 approval, while Daines is on slightly negative ground at a 39/40 approval. Daines' approval numbers have dropped a net 9 points from last summer when we found him at a 41/33 spread. He went under water following the government shutdown and has not seen his numbers turn back around.
One place where Walsh has seen real improvement as he's become better known is in his crossover support from Republicans. Where he trailed 90/3 with them in November, that deficit is now just 79/12. Walsh has a slightly more unified party behind him, getting 81% of Democrats. Daines leads 41/32 with independents, but that has tightened from 48/35 last fall.
The generic Senate ballot in Montana actually gives Republicans only a 45/41 lead. Daines' lead is larger than that mostly based on his having slightly greater name recognition from having run statewide on his own account in 2012. Daines remains the favorite in the Senate race, but it looks to have a lot more potential to be competitive than it did previously.

A 22-YEAR-OLD gardener was caught with more than £1,200-worth of cannabis after he and friends chipped in to buy a stash to take to a music festival.
Blackburn magistrates heard Daniel Vincent Westell and 14 friends had each paid in £80 to buy the cannabis, which Westell had bought on their behalf.
He ended up facing a charge of possession with intent to supply after explaining the position to police and telling them that £500 in cash found in the van was money he had been paid for gardening jobs.
Westell, 22, of Hodder Street, Accrington, pleaded guilty to possession with intent to supply. He was committed on bail to Preston Crown Court for sentence after the prosecution asked for the forfeiture of the cash.
District Judge James Clarke said if it had not been for the seizure application he would have dealt with the case within the magistrates court powers.
The court heard police who stopped a van on Burnley Road, Accrington, they could smell cannabis. They searched the vehicle and found a large bag containing several other bags of cannabis and £500 in cash.
Westell said he and his friends were going to Santa Pod.
"That weed is for all of us and there's about 15 of us chipped in," he added. He said he was looking after it until the festival in August.
Gareth Price, defending, said Westell was 'sitting' the cannabis until he and his friends went to the festival.
"There is no suggestion of commercial supply," said Mr Price.

Reviews forRich Chocolate Brownies
My Review
Average Rating
"Turned out more cake-like than in the picture, but still very good. I skipped the frosting to save on time, so can't really rate that part. I added about a 1/3 cup each pecans and chocolate chips to the batter to fancy it up a bit since I was skipping the frosting. quick and easy, so you really don't need to buy a mix again!"
"Delicious brownies! I did not make the frosting after reading previous reviews, and they were great without it!"
"Very rich and moist! Better than any other recipe I have tried. I did not use the instant coffee as we are not into that kind of coffee. I used brewed coffee in place of the water but I did need to add more to make the frosting spreadable just a few extra drops to make it spreadable. My husband really enjoyed these and said he could taste the coffee in the frosting. Make sure you have Ice cream to off set the richness of these brownies. I will make these again."
"Very good brownies! I only added one half a teaspoon of instant coffee to the frosting, and even that was too much - I'd leave it out if I made the frosting again. Actually, I don't care for frosting, period, and I'd rather just make the brownies and leave them unfrosted. These were very soft and delicious, and I'd make them again without hesitation."
"A richer brownie recipe for when you have a taste for frosted brownies. I don't usually like coffee in brownies but this was really good,"
"With the exception of the frosting recipe, this is the Hershey's Best Brownies I have been making for years. When I made them the first time, my husband said don't bother making any other recipe!"
"I just made these today, and honestly, this brownie recipe is nothing special or exceptional to me. They were no better than any other brownie recipe I have made. Not bad. Just not as good as I was expecting according to the reviews. I guess I am still in search of a really awesome dense brownie recipe."
"These brownies are wonderful! Moist and fudgy and the frosting is delicious. Can't taste the coffee in the frosting; it just serves to enhance the flavor of the chocolate. I doubled the brownie recipe for a 9x13 pan (and added 1 Tbl. of vanilla) but only 1.5 times the frosting recipe (adding 2 tsps. vanilla) because it makes so much. Still baked for 30 minutes. Heavenly!"
"Recipe doubles well. I, too, questioned the small amount of flour (1/2 cup) in the regular recipe, but, wanting to trust the recipe as written, only doubled it to 1 cup for my double recipe version. It was perfect! Used 1 tsp. instant espresso in the doubled brownie recipe. It added a nice depth of flavor. Also used 1/2 tsp. instant espresso in the double recipe for the frosting instead of regular coffee. Needed an extra TBSP. of water in doubled recipe of frosting for spreadable consistency. Baked in 25 minutes in 9x13 at 350. Really great recipe! Thank you for sharing. I think this will now be my "go to" brownie recipe."

Dr. Barb Hansen honored for international work in
invitational learning; Education Department receives grant for
Dr. Barb Hansen, Dave Longaberger Professor of Teaching and
Learning and Distinguished Professor of Education at Muskingum University, was
recently recognized for her leadership in the International Alliance for
Invitational Education (IAIE) , receiving the William Stafford Leadership Award.
It is the highest award presented by the organization. Established in 2003 to
recognize exceptional leadership within the Alliance, the William Stafford
Leadership Award is named for the late Dr. William Stafford, former Professor of
Counselor Education at Lehigh University. Significant contribution to the
development of invitation theory and practice, and outstanding performance in
key leadership roles and responsibilities are among the criteria. She received
the award at the 2012 IAIE World Conference in Hong Kong. IAIE is an
international group committed to helping educators develop and promote the
understanding that every person adds to, or subtracts from, the process of being
a beneficial presence in the lives of students.
"I credit this award to the Muskingum Education Department's commitment to
invitational learning," said Dr. Hansen about the award. "Muskingum's work in
invitational learning is known across Ohio and the nation," she added. That
commitment was recognized in 2008 when the Muskingum University Education
Department earned the International Inviting School Award and was the only
higher education institution to receive an award that year. Since that time,
Muskingum has worked with various school districts and projects in invitational
education, including the creation of the Ohio Chapter for Invitational
Education, which hosted the International 2010 Conference in Columbus where
participants from seven nations attended.
Additionally, Muskingum's work with invitational education was recognized at
IAIE's 2012 conference in Hong Kong, China, when the Education Department was
named the recipient of a competitive research study award. This study will be
conducted with Park Street Intermediate School in the South Western School
District in Columbus, Ohio.Education Department faculty leading the study
include Dr. Rae White, Director of the Educator Preparation Program and
Professor of Education, Dr. Linda Rogness, Professor of Education, and Dr.
Hansen. The study will analyze the growth of invitational education in the Park
Street Intermediate School.
Since that time, Muskingum has worked with various schools and projects in
invitational education, including the creation of the Ohio Chapter for
Invitational Education, which hosted the International 2010 Conference in
Columbus. Participants from seven nations attended.

Whitland loses mighty 'Mogs' Morgan
12:02pm Friday 7th March 2014
12:02pm Friday 7th March 2014
PEMBROKESHIRE rugby has lost one of its best-known characters with the sad passing away of Whitland RFC's stalwart second row Brian Morgan, writes Bill Carne.
Known to all as 'Mogs' he was rightly revered by his own team-mates and sometimes feared by the opposition for his uncompromising play in the close exchanges.
"He was the hardest man I ever saw on a local rugby pitch," said long-time team-mate Tony Bowen, "but a gentleman off it who could not have been nicer or more modest.
"He was known by teams across South Wales and when we recently played against Glynneath some of their old timers were quick to ask how Brian Morgan was."
Brian was held in huge esteem at Whitland but he played his first senior game for Narberth when he was only 16 - and as well as playing for the Borderers for the vast majority of his playing career he also played for some time at Stradey Park with Llanelli and also played for Swansea.
But it was with a very strong Whitland team that he was best known and created a record that is unlikely to be beaten since he also represented Pembrokeshire on well over 70 occasions. Most of these games were played against other counties or against first-class clubs and 'Mogs' never shirked a tackle or sold himself short on the pitch because he always took great pride in his performance.
Tony Bowen, who played 53 times alongside him for Pembrokeshire, said: "He was an inspirational character but once we were off the pitch I never ever heard him talk about his own play because he was too busy saying well done to others.
"We have lost a smashing sportsman and everyone who knew him will miss him badly."
In his role as a water bailiff 'Mogs' also loved nature along the river bank and was a keen angler but it was rugby that occupied much of his spare time and Brian 'Mogs' Morgan will long be remembered for his huge contribution to the game in Whitland and Pembrokeshire - and our hearts go out to his family at this very sad time.

National Award Honors Wastewater Management Program for Environmental Stewardship
Office of Public Affairs
12000 Government Center Parkway, Suite 551
Fairfax, VA 22035-0065
June 19, 2003
National Award Honors Fairfax County's
Management Program for Environmental Stewardship
Fairfax County's Noman M. Cole Jr. Pollution Control Plant recently received the prestigious Platinum Peak Performance Award from the Association of Metropolitan Sewerage Agencies (AMSA) to recognize the facility's outstanding accomplishments in wastewater treatment and environmental protection of water quality in the county, as well as improvement of the Chesapeake Bay water quality. The Platinum Award pays special tribute to those municipal wastewater treatment facilities that, for the past five consecutive years (1998 - 2002), have received Gold Awards for achieving 100 percent compliance with all National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit limits during a calendar year.
The Noman Cole Plant, operated within the Fairfax County Wastewater Management Program, was recently honored at a special awards ceremony held in May 2003 in conjunction with AMSA's 2003 National Environmental Policy Forum and 33rd Annual Meeting in Washington, D.C.
The Noman Cole Plant, located at 9399 Richmond Highway, Lorton, is the largest advanced wastewater treatment plant in the commonwealth of Virginia with design capacity of 54 million gallons per day. Nearly half of the 95 million gallons per day of wastewater generated in the county is currently treated at the Noman Cole Plant. The plant is operated 24 hours a day, seven days a week with the help of highly trained and skilled wastewater professionals in the field of operations, maintenance, information controls, engineering, management, and related critical support services, as well as water quality testing and environmental monitoring services.
In order to comply with stringent regulatory standards, the treatment
system at the plant consists of a series of complex and sophisticated
physical, mechanical, biological and chemical treatment processes for
removing 99 percent or more of the organic pollutants, nutrients, such as
phosphorus and nitrogen, and particulate matter from wastewater, in
addition to almost complete bacterial disinfection, and oxygen enrichment
of treated effluent prior to discharge to Pohick Creek.
The Wastewater Management Program maintains approximately 3,200 miles of
sanitary sewer lines, 51 sewage flow meters, 61 pumping stations, and 293
sewage grinder pumps in an approved sewer service area that covers nearly
234 square miles. More than 85 percent of the 325,000 households and
virtually all businesses in the county are connected to public sewer. New
developments or existing homes with septic tanks in the county's approved
sanitary sewer service area can connect to public sewer. Arlington
County, Fort Belvoir, the cities of Falls Church and Fairfax, and the
towns of Herndon and Vienna are also permitted to have use of the
county's sewer system through separate service agreements. Through
inter-jurisdictional agreements, a portion of the wastewater flow
collected in the system is conveyed to four regional treatment facilities
operated by Arlington County, the District of Columbia (Blue Plains), the
Alexandria Sanitation Authority and the Upper Occoquan Sewage
As authorized by the Clean Water Act, the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit program controls water pollution by regulating point sources discharging treated wastewater effluent into waters of the United States. Point sources are discrete conveyances such as pipes. Individual homes that are connected to a municipal sewer system, use a septic system or do not have a surface discharge do not need an NPDES permit; however, industrial, municipal and other facilities must obtain permits if their discharges go directly to surface waters. Since its introduction in 1972, the U.S. EPA's NPDES permit program is responsible for significant improvements to our nation's water quality.
AMSA is a national professional trade association representing nearly 300 of the nation's public wastewater utilities which provide service to the majority of Americans. These wastewater treatment officials are professional environmental practitioners dedicated to protecting and improving the nation's public health and its water, and collectively treat and reclaim over 18 billion gallons of wastewater every day.
For more information, call the director of the Wastewater Treatment Division at 703-550-9740 ext. 255, TTY 711.

Sometimes when fetching a monk to or from the airport, I am compelled to stop at a cafe or restaurant for lunch because of time constraints. I wish to inquire:
1. are there any rules which forbid a monk from eating at a restaurant?
2. are there any rules which forbid a monk and layman from eating at the same table ( but not sharing food) ?

AN ACCOUNTANT who threatened to stab his wife to death after he lost his job escaped a jail sentence yesterday.
During his four-day trial at Guildford Crown Court Francis Fernandes, 47, claimed his wife Cynthia made up the story to frame him after he threatened to report her and other members of her family for alleged benefit fraud.
The father-of-two, of Pont Estyll Lane, Newport, blamed his medical secretary wife for him losing his job and accused her of having affairs with other men behind his back.
Police were called to the couple's rented three-bedroomed house in Surrey on April 28 last year after he brandished a kitchen knife and threatened to end his wife's life. Their son, Shannon, 18, disarmed him before Fernandes stormed out of the house.
He accepted he had a bread knife in his hand when he confronted his wife of 18 years but said he was instead threatening to kill himself, the court heard.
Prosecutor, Peter Stage, said the couple's relationship started to deteriorate nine years ago and things only got worse when Frenandes lost his job as a company accountant for a large firm. He told the court this was because he had discovered evidence of dishonesty.
In evidence for his defence Fernandes said his wife was trying to get him committed to a mental institution, after he warned her he intended to report her and her relatives for alleged "benefit fraud."
Since he had been out of work his wife had treated him with utter contempt, he said and rewarded him for doing most of the chores with nothing but scorn.
"She told me that I was like a barking dog. She said to me: 'You haven't got the guts to do anything. You are an impotent man.'" He said.
Fernandes was given a two year prison sentence suspended for two years after a jury found him guilty of threats to kill and affray. He had already admitted a charge of common assault. He was acquitted of two further counts of affray and threats to kill alleged to have occurred in March 2011.
He was also made the subject of a restraining order not to approach his wife.

So I've done probably around 30 dyes now and was wondering exactly how hot you guys let your dye heat up before dipping and while the disc is floating in the pan? I bought an $8 digital cooking thermometer from walmart and found that between 100-115 degrees is about the point where you can hold the pan without burning yourself but where you can see the dye barely "steaming". I still get worried about bleeding (even when using vinyl) when my dye gets close to around 115-120 degrees while the disc is in the pan and I'm trying to get a nice bold black. I've been typically preheating my dye to around 100 degrees then turning the heat down to low or 1 on the stove then placing the disc in for about 10 minutes then killing the flame, let it sit for another 5-10 min, check it, then turn the heat back on low for 5 min til it gets almost too hot, then I move the pan to a side burner to finish cooling down the last 5-10 min then rinse.
It seems like even after a couple days after a dye the disc feels a little "gummier" then before dyeing. Anyone else notice this?
Has anyone experimented with higher temp to color boldness?

Puig's offseason a tale of two extremes
LOS ANGELES -- Dodgers outfielder Yasiel Puig has had an eventful offseason, and general manager Ned Colletti has seen both the good and the bad.
One afternoon in November, Colletti looked out of his office window at Dodger Stadium to see Puig throwing batting practice to 50 Little Leaguers. Then a little over a month later, Colletti got notice that Puig had been arrested in Florida on a charge of reckless driving.
"It's a very interesting dynamic," Colletti said on Wednesday. "I see a lot of different sides of it. I don't condone what he's done. I don't know if it's ironic, but it's interesting to me that since the offseason began he spent a lot of time in L.A. and he really spent a lot of time with kids, playing baseball with kids. So he's setting this great example and doing stuff that I haven't really seen many big league players ever do.
"I can't remember the last time I looked out my window and saw 50 Little Leaguers out there and a player as the ringleader of the group. At the same time, there are boundaries that you've got to stay in. It's part of growing up and being responsible. That's a key thing for us, and a key thing for him."
Puig, 23, was also arrested in April in Tennessee and charged with reckless driving and speeding. Those charges were dropped in November.

Rutger's footballs pretty solid, no reason they couldn't be a long term second tier Big Ten school. Maryland basketball's a sleeping giant, can't say I'd be too excited about Mark Turgeon being able to recruit Indiana easier.The University of Maryland is in serious negotiations to join the Big Ten Conference, sources told ESPN on Saturday.
If Maryland goes from the ACC to the Big Ten, Rutgers of the Big East is expected to follow suit. The addition of Maryland and Rutgers would give the Big Ten 14 members as the league gears toward negotiations on a new media rights deal when its first-tier rights expire in 2017.
No date has been set for a potential announcement, though it could come as soon as Monday.
Maryland president Wallace Loh has been handling the conversation with Big Ten officials, a source said.
One source told ESPN that Maryland athletic director Kevin Anderson has informed key staffers that there are ongoing discussions.
One stumbling block for Maryland could be finances. Maryland's athletic department has recently dropped sports because of budget issues, and the ACC recently raised its exit fee to $50 million.
Maryland and Florida State were the only two of 12 schools that voted against a $50 million exit fee out of the ACC, but lost the vote. Loh was quoted in the Washington Post on Sept. 13 that he was against the hike from $20-50 million on "legal and philosophical" grounds. The Post reported that Loh said Maryland planned to be in the ACC for years to come.
A source told ESPN that the Big Ten has been itchy about further expansion since Notre Dame made its official move to the ACC two months ago in all sports other than football. The source said the Big Ten can justify Maryland and then possibly Rutgers since they are all contiguous states to the Big Ten footprint.
One source told ESPN that Loh and Anderson don't have ACC ties so there wouldn't be a strong emotional pull to stay with the conference. Loh is a former provost at Big Ten member Iowa.
However, the chancellor of the Maryland system, Brit Kirwan, has been on the Maryland campus for 30 years and has strong affiliation for being a charter member of the ACC, according to a source.
One source with Maryland ties said there is a strong affinity for the ACC and making the move to the Big Ten may not be a unanimous decision among the school's board of regents.
Big Ten officials did not respond to numerous requests seeking comment. ACC officials also did not respond to a request for comment. Maryland officials would not comment when asked after the Terps' football game on Saturday.
If these dominoes were to fall then Connecticut would emerge as the most likely candidate to fill Maryland's spot in the ACC. The ACC will be at 14 members in 2013-14 with the addition of the Big East's Pittsburgh and Syracuse and 15 in all sports except football when Notre Dame joins, which could be as early as fall 2013.
Rutgers' exit fee from the Big East would be less expensive. The buyout to leave the Big East is $10 million if the school provides 27 months' notice. However, the league has allowed West Virginia, Pitt and Syracuse to leave the league without honoring the 27-month requirement by paying a higher exit fee.
The Scarlet Knights would be the ninth member of the Big East to leave or announce they were leaving the league since 2004. Six of those defections have occurred in the past year -- Pitt, Syracuse and Notre Dame to the ACC; TCU and West Virginia to the Big 12 and Rutgers to the Big Ten.
The Scarlet Knights were charter members of the Big East's football conference, which began in 1991.
Maryland also was a charter member of the ACC, one of eight schools to start the league in 1953.
Both Maryland and Rutgers are members of the AAU (Association of American Universities), something vital to Big Ten presidents.
The addition of the two East Coast schools would dramatically stretch the Big Ten's footprint. With Maryland holding down the Beltway, Rutgers offering up the New York market and Penn State's strong eastern ties, the league has a solid anchor in the mid-Atlantic states.
Maryland and Rutgers also would make the nation's richest conference even wealthier. Last season, each Big Ten school received a record $24.6 million in shared revenue, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported. One source said the success of the Big Ten Network is an intriguing factor for Maryland.
If the two schools join the Big Ten, it would reopen what many thought was a stable time in the conference realignment process. The Big Ten joins the SEC as a legitimate 14-team superconference, while the ACC drops to 13 football members and likely will pursue another all-sports member to get back to 14.
ACC commissioner John Swofford said at ACC media day and during the news conference when the Irish were added that the league wouldn't go beyond 14 football members and could easily exist with an odd number (15) in men's and women's basketball. But if a football member were to leave, the ACC would likely have to make a move.
Maryland, meanwhile, will become only the second school to leave the ACC. South Carolina was the other, leaving in 1971 to become an independent. The Gamecocks are now members of the SEC.
In the past few years, the nation's top five conferences -- SEC, Big Ten, Big 12, Pac-12 and ACC -- have added a total of 10 new members, causing a domino effect throughout the college landscape from coast to coast.
