I'm doing a offline web application using Dashcode which uses a lot of data from a local storage via the Dashcode's RecordSet function, but I was testing this all using a local XML file as example, but now I need something that I can read and write(and still be usable as a RecordSet), so how can I make this?

What started out as a triumphant return to the metro-east has quickly turned sour for Gateway Grizzlies pitcher and Centralia native Aaron Newcomb.
Looking to break a season-worst four-game Grizzlies' losing streak, Newcomb allowed nine runs in just 2 1/3 innings on Tuesday as the Frontier Greys took a commanding 13-1 lead after seven innings at GCS Ballpark.
The game had not ended at press time.
Taking advantage of near perfect weather conditions, a paid crowd of 3,122 didn't have much to cheer about as the Greys (20-42) scored four runs off Newcomb in both the first and third innings then got a three-run home run in the fourth inning from all-star Joe Rapp.
Rapp's home run came off reliever Dejai Oliver and increased the Greys lead to 12-0
Frontier scored at least one run in each of the first five innings.
Gateway entered the game with an 8-game losing streak at GCS Ballpark. The Grizzlies (37-24), who won 22 of their first 27 games at home, entered play on Tuesday one game back of River City in the battle for the West Division lead.
The Grizzlies last won on their home turf on July 4 when the nation was celebrating its birthday.
A member of the West Division all-star team who started the season 7-1, Newcomb (8-4) lasted just three innings in an 11-4 loss to Evansville on July 24 when he gave up seven runs.
The Greys took advantage of two Gateway errors and a passed ball to score four runs in the first inning. Newcomb struck out the first two hitters of the game, but surrendered a run scoring single to Joe Minucci for the first run of the game.
A passed ball by Landon Hernandez made it 2-0 and when Grizzlies rightfielder TJ Bennett dropped a fly ball off the bat of Michael Vaughn. two more runs scored for Frontier.
Minucci added a second RBI single in the bottom of the second and when Jon Dziomba, Zach Tanner and Frank Florio all drove in runs the top of the third inning, Frontier led 9-0.
Held to five hits over the first five innings by Frontier starting pitcher Brandon Rhode, the Grizzlies finally got on the scoreboard in the bottom of the sixth inning.
TJ Bennett doubled with one out and scored on a single by Ben Waldrip.
Up next
The Grizzlies begin a crucial six game road trip today with the first of a three game series at Florence, (Ky.) Gateway then travels to Chicago to take on Windy City, Aug. 2-4. The Grizzlies return home on Aug. 6 to take on Normal.

DEFINITION of 'Price Per Flowing Barrel'
A metric used to determine the value of a oil and gas company. Price per flowing barrel is calculated as:
(Market Cap + Debt - Cash) / Production Barrels Per Day
For example, an oil company with a market capitalization of $20 billion, debt of $500 million and $100 million in cash that produces 600,000 BPD will have a price per flowing barrel of $34,000.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Price Per Flowing Barrel'
Price per flowing barrel does not take into account the potential production from undeveloped fields. To get a better picture of an oil companies financial health, investors should also determine the cost of developing new fields.
As a comparative metric, price per flowing barrel is typically more useful when comparing similar types of oil from similar types of fields.

This application is a continuation-in-part of co-pending application Ser. No. 576,038, filed May 9, 1975, now U.S. Pat. No. 3,964,404.
Conventional adjustable metal shelving commonly includes set screws for anchoring the shelves at selected elevations. The screws are turned until they tightly engage the metal corner posts. Overtightening of the screws could damage the posts or, in some cases, strip the threads of the screws. On the other hand, should the screws be too loose, or should they become loosened during use, the stability of the entire structure could be affected and the equipment or articles supported by the loosened shelf could fall and become damaged. Furthermore, the set screw arrangement, while offering an advantage of infinite adjustability, also has the disadvantage of providing little or no indication of just when a shelf is level, thereby presenting a real possibility that such a shelf might be tightened while in a slightly tipped condition, with consequential effects on the alignment and stability of the assembly as a whole.
U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,280,767 and 3,344,756 illustrate constructions in which set screws directly engage the corner posts to hold the shelves in position. A modified construction in which a set screw is used but does not directly engage the post is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,747,540. U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,424,111, 3,523,508, and 3,757,705 teach constructions in which set screws are eliminated and the shelves are held in place upon circumferential grooved posts by sleeves equipped with portions receivable in the grooves. Co-owned U.S. Pat. No. 3,589,746 teaches a system in which the shelves are locked in place with friction corner braces.
Co-pending co-owned application Ser. No. 576,038, filed May 9, 1975, now U.S. Pat. No. 3,964,404, discloses a shelf and corner post construction in which the outer aspect, or outer surface portion, of each post is smooth and is slidably engaged by the perimetric frame of the shelf. The inwardly-facing surface of the post is provided with a series of vertically-spaced recesses or indentations. A brace bridges the adjacent side members of the perimetric frame, the post extending through the space between the corner section of the frame and the brace. A screw, threadedly carried by the brace, urges the arms of a U-shaped clip into the indentations of the post to wedge the parts into tight locking relationship.
While the construction disclosed in the aforementioned co-pending application has the advantage, among others, of providing an arrangement in which the outer aspect of each post is smooth and uninterrupted, it has been found that other highly-effective arrangements may be devised if the particular use to which such assembly is to be put does not render objectionable the provision of posts with outwardly-facing indentations. All of the constructions embodying the present invention include corner posts in which the indentations face outwardly, that is, away from the body of the shelf to which the post is coupled. Thus, where the posts are of cylindrical configuration, each indentation of the series has an arcuate portion which is directed outwardly away from the body of the shelf. It will become apparent from the following specification that each indentation may also have an inwardly-facing arcuate portion and, if desired, each indentation may extend about the complete circumference of the post; however, for most applications it is more desirable for each post to be provided with arcuate or semi-circumferential indentations along the outwardly-facing aspect of the post, the inwardly-facing post surface being left relatively smooth and uninterrupted.
The corner sections of the perimetric frame, defined by the merger of adjacent side frame members, are contoured to conform with the surface configuration of the posts against which they fit. Each corner section is provided with at least one horizontal rib or lip which seats in a selected horizontal indentation of the post. The lip or rib is drawn into the selected recess, and is retained therein, by bearing means carried by a bracket or brace which spans the adjacent side frame members of the shelf. In its simplest form, the bearing means may take the form of a screw which is threadedly carried by the brace and which projects outwardly into engagement with the post, the screw being tightened to draw the lip or rib of the corner section into interfitting engagement with the indented post. In another form of the invention, a cam element is carried by the brace and is manipulated to forceably seat the rib of the shelf's corner portion into the post's arcuate indentation. In still other forms of the invention, bearing elements in the form of clips or blocks are urged into tight engagement with the inside surfaces of the posts, each post being forced outwardly (or the corner section of the shelf being drawn inwardly) to seat the rib of the corner section into its selected indentation.
Other aspects, advantages, and objects of the invention will become apparent from the specification and drawings.

FIG. 6 is an enlarged perspective view illustrating the bearing block utilized in the assembly depicted in FIGS. 4 and 5.
FIG. 7 is a fragmentary horizontal sectional view of a shelf and corner post assembly constituting a third embodiment of the invention.
FIG. 8 is a vertical sectional view taken along line 8--8 of FIG. 7.
FIGS. 9-11 illustrate a shelf and corner post assembly constituting a fourth embodiment of the invention; FIG. 9 showing details in perspective of the shelf, the post being illustrated only in phantom; FIG. 10 being a fragmentary horizontal sectional view of the assembly; and FIG. 11 being a vertical sectional view taken along line 11--11 of FIG. 10.
Referring to FIGS. 1-3 of the drawings, the numeral 10 generally designates an assembly composed of a shelf 11 and a corner post 12. It is to be understood that extraneous or duplicative structure has been omitted and, specifically, that the shelf has a plurality of corner portions each joined to a post as shown, and that in any complete unit a plurality of such shelves would be mounted on the same posts. The posts might be free standing or might constitute the frame members of a shelf cart similar to the cart illustrated in U.S. Pat. No. 3,589,746. Except for the differences shown and described herein, the shelf assembly of this invention is similar to that depicted and disclosed in the aforementioned co-pending application.
The shelf 11 includes a perimetric rectangular frame 13 defined by longitudinal frame members 13a and transverse frame members 13b. Each frame member has a generally vertical wall 14 and a top flange 15. If desired, the shelf may also have a lower flange (not shown) similar to top flange 15 but not necessarily of the same inwardly-projecting dimension as the top flange.
The side frame members 13a and 13b merge smoothly to provide an arcuate corner section 13c for the perimetric frame. As shown most clearly in FIG. 2, the corner section has at least one inwardly-projecting arcuate lip or rib. Two such ribs 16a and 16b are shown, the upper rib 16a projecting inwardly from the upper limits of side wall 14 and merging smoothly with the upper flanges 15 of the side frame members. Similarly, the lower rib 16b projects inwardly from the lower end of side wall 14, merging smoothly with a lower flange if one is provided. It is to be noted that the flanges of the side frame members terminate at the corner section to provide a recess or cutout 17 for post 12.
While the post might have other configurations, the generally cylindrical configuration illustrated in the drawing has been found particularly effective because of ease of manufacture and maintenance, and because of the strength which such a configuration contributes not only to the posts but to the assembly as a whole. In the embodiment depicted in the drawings, each post is tubular or hollow and has a series of vertically-spaced outwardly-facing indentations 18. Since the post is cylindrical, each such indentation is arcuate and extends in a horizontal plane. While only three such uniformly-spaced indentations are shown, it is to be understood that each post has a multiplicity of such indentations for use in supporting a plurality of shelves at any of a variety of selected elevations.
Each indentation or recess 18 of the cylindrical post 12 is shown to be semi-cylindrical, or slightly greater than semi-cylindrical, in horizontal extent. Alternatively, the indentations may extend the full circumference of the post; however, such a construction is unnecessary and, to the extent that indentations along the inwardly-facing aspect of the post provides surfaces for the retention of dirt and other materials, might even be considered undesirable.
Where the corner section 13c of the shelf is provided with a pair of vertically-spaced inwardly-projecting ribs 16a and 16b, the spacing between indentations 18 corresponds to the spacing between such ribs. Thus, as illustrated in FIG. 2, when the parts are assembled ribs 16a and 16b are seated within a pair of indentations 18. The inside curvature of each indentation 18 matches the curvature of the inwardly-facing edge of each rib to achieve a secure interfit between the parts.
A brace 19 bridges adjacent frame members 13a and 13b, the brace including end portions 19a which are welded or otherwise permanently secured to the inside surfaces of walls 14 and an intermediate spanning portion 19b which is spaced from the corner section 13c of the frame a distance substantially greater than the outside diameter of post 12. The intermediate portion 19b is provided with a central horizontally-extending threaded aperture 20 for receiving screw 21. The enlarged head 21a bears against a generally C-shaped clip 22, the clip in turn cooperating with the post to anchor the parts securely together. In FIG. 3 the clip is shown as having an upper arm 22a, a lower arm 22b, and a vertical connecting portion 22c. The arms are generally parallel and are provided at their free ends with arcuate bearing surfaces or edges 23 having the same curvature as the outer surface of post 12. In the embodiment depicted in the drawings, the width of each arm 22a and 22b is substantially less than the width of recess or cutout 17; however, the clip may be constructed so that the width of its arms more closely approximate the width of the cutout. Since the spacing between the arms is substantially the same as the spacing between ribs 16a and 16b, the top surface of the clip may thus be flush with the top surfaces of upper flanges 15.
It is believed evident that the clip 22 and screw 21 cooperate with the brace 19 to provide bearing means for drawing the ribs or lips of the shelf's corner section into the indentations of the post and for forceably (but releasably) securing the shelf at any of a variety of selected elevations along the post. Since the contour of bearing surfaces 23 corresponds with that of the post's outer surface, and since the shelf is secured at its selected elevation because of the seating of the ribs 16a and 16b within the indentations 18, the smooth inner surface of the post is not likely to be scored or in any way damaged by clamping engagement with the clip.
The embodiment of FIGS. 4-6 is identical to the first embodiment except for the clamping means provided by the shelf for forceably and releasably engaging the inwardly-facing surface of the post (i.e., the outer surface of the post which faces inwardly towards the body of the shelf). Like screw 21, screw 121 extends through a threaded opening 20 in the brace 19. The outwardly-facing free end of the screw 121 is provided with a shoe 122 which engages a bearing element in the form of block 123. As shown most clearly in FIG. 6, the block is provided with a recess 124 which conforms to the contour of the post's external surface. As the screw is tightened, block 123 is urged outwardly to force ribs 16a and 16b into recesses 18 in the same manner as described in conjunction with the first embodiment.
If desired, the top surface of the block may have an upwardly-stepped central portion 125 adapted to be received within the recess or cutout 17 between the top flanges of side frame members 13a and 13b, the top surface of the central portion 125 being substantially flush with the upper surface of flanges 15.
While the block 123 may be formed of any suitable material, a substantially inert rigid plastic such as a copolymer of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene is believed particularly effective. A tight sealing engagement between such a plastic block and the post, one which is incapable of marring the surface (which may be plated) of the post, may thus be achieved. The use of such a block (or of a clip 22 which substantially fills cutout 17) is particularly useful where the shelf-post assembly is to be used in food handling equipment since the block or bearing element may reduce the possibility of food entrapment, thereby facilitating cleaning and sanitizing of such equipment.
Where the advantages of such a block (or clip) are deemed unnecessary, and where possible marring of the finish of the post is not of major concern, the block (or clip) may be eliminated as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8. The post and shelf assembly of FIGS. 7-8 is identical to the construction of FIGS. 4-6 except that the block is omitted and the screw 221 bears directly against the post itself. If desired, the inwardly-facing outer surface of the post may be provided with a series of dimples or recesses 226 to guide and receive the outer end of the screw. Alternatively, the screw 221 may be provided with a shoe which is rotatable relative to the screw (similar to shoe 122 of FIGS. 4 and 5) to prevent scoring or other damage to the surface of the post.
The embodiment of FIGS. 9-11 differs from the constructions already described to the extent that the bearing means takes the form of a locking lever 321 having a cam surface 326. As the lever is pivoted downwardly in the direction indicated by arrow 327 (FIG. 11), the cam surface forceably engages the surface of the post to draw the ribs 16a and 16b of the shelf into tight seating engagement within indentations 18 of the post. Where the sliding engagement between the lever and post, which necessarily occurs during a tightening action, must be avoided, a block similar to block 123 (FIG. 6) may be interposed between the post and cam lever, such block also serving as a filler which occupies the space or recess 17 in the manner already described.
The cam lever may be pivotally supported by the bracket or brace 319 in any suitable manner. As shown in the drawings, the brace is provided with a pair of inwardly-projecting ears 319a which are apertured to support pivot pin 328 upon which the lever is pivotally supported.
While in the foregoing, several embodiments of the invention have been disclosed in considerable detail for purposes of illustration, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that many of these details may be varied without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.

Rumor Patrol: Is Stana Katic Pregnant?
Be careful what you wear. That may be the lesson to take from the following Castle case cracked by Michael Ausiello. The Entertainment Weekly columnist just answered a fan's question on Beckett's ... baby bump?
"Is Stana Katic pregnant?" a fan named Peter asks. "Don't get me wrong, she is as stunning as ever; her wardrobe choices on Castle, on the other hand, are suspicious."
As Ausiello answers, "She is not pregnant. In related news, the puffy blouse Katic was wearing in Monday's episode released the following statement exclusively to Ask Ausiello: 'My bad.'"
Mystery solved!

"At my Baby Shower guests brought a signed book to contribute to Baby's "Library" so when I saw these I knew they'd be perfect to use as my Thank you cards!"
"I ordered this stationary for myself as a thank you I love the colors and the sweetness of the design. The card quality is lovely."
"This is the cutest card ever!!! Such a beautiful use of Gold and Pink, which matched my daughter's party theme perfectly!!!"
"I thought it was so intuitive putting this together and it came out so beautifully - better than I was expecting. The paper is very thick and the colors are pale (maybe a bit lighter than I was expecting). I made these as a thank you letter for my toddler daughter for when she gets presents from friends/ family so she can send out her own Thank You cards and her picture is on the back for family that don't see her too often. Can't wait to get these again next year when she gets a bit bigger and we can pick out another design."
"These are so cute - I use them as thank you notes for my son. His room is little world traveler-themed so the cards are perfect for him!"

I hope this is successful. The bar/restaurant and office space allows for corporate events/meetings, while still catering to the the kids with the arcade, laser tag, etc. Interesting idea, with little competition locally.
I'm not opposed to it, but think its an odd location and odd business combination.
I'm skeptical it can turn a profit but will be impressed if the business owner makes it happen. Go karts and arcades have come an gone in different forms and can't seem to make it.
City center would have been a good location for go karts, arcades and trampolines.
Not sure a business park is the right place though the office and meeting space fits.

(Published on the Tiger Rant by AstroTiger)
#7 LSU Fighting Tigers vs. Texas A&M Aggies at Olsen Field at Blue Bell Park.
LSU is heading west for the second consecutive season to face the Texas A&M Aggies in College Station, TX. With 9 games remaining, LSU (34-11-1, 12-8-1) trails Alabama and Ole Miss by a half game in the SEC Western Division. The Tigers are heating up at the right time, winners of 14 of the last 17 games and 4 straight conference series. The only road series win on the year was the most recent against Ole Miss, so the Tigers look to build upon the success in Oxford with a trip to A&M. LSU avoided a huge upset on Tuesday night coming from behind to beat Alcorn State and evading a big RPI hit. Texas A&M (28-18, 10-11) are winners of 5 of their last 6, including a midweek win over Rice, a series victory at Mississippi State, and a win over Texas State on Tuesday night. LSU leads the all time series 15-14-1 and has won 9 of the last 10 matchups between the teams. The Tigers came back and won the series last season after the dropping the Friday night game. Aaron Nola won game 2 of that series with Sean McMullen piling up 4 hits in that contest.
Viewership should be high for this weekend with all 3 games being played on national TV and no blackouts in effect. Friday night's game will start at 6:30pm and will be on CBS College Sports. You can find out your local CBS-S channel using the CBS-S Channel Finder on their website. Saturday's game is an early afternoon 12:00pm start and will be televised on ESPN2 in addition to being streamed on ESPN3.com and the watchESPN app. Game 3 will start at 1:00pm on Sunday and be seen on ESPNU. As usual, games on ESPN networks are also streamed on ESPN3.com and the watchESPN app. As always, audio is available all 3 games in the GeauxZone.
Texas A&M Aggies
Record: 28-18
Conference: 10-11, t5th SEC west
Non-Conf: 18-7
Home: 20-9
Away: 7-9
Neutral: 1-0
Record vs. RPI: (LSU numbers in parentheses)
Team RPI: 36 (16)
vs Top 25: 6-5 (3-7)
vs Top 50: 10-11 (8-8)
vs Top 100: 13-16 (13-9)
Team Overview:
Texas A&M is led by head coach Rob Childress, who is in his 9th season with the Aggies. Childress has lead A&M to the postseason every year since 2007 including an appearance in the 2011 College World Series, the 5th in program history. In 2004, prior to Childress, the Aggies played a Super Regional in Baton Rouge, a series which the Tigers swept 11-8 and 4-0. Texas A&M joined the SEC last season and faired decent with a 13-16 record, which was good enough to make the NCAA tournament, but eventually lost out to the #3 national seed Oregon State in regional play. The 2014 baseball Aggies are a veteran group trying to battle its way back into the SEC west race. Unlike most teams in the country, A&M has just as many losses at home as they do on the road. They have a pair of impressive series wins against Florida and at Vanderbilt, but also have lost bad series against Auburn and Georgia. That lack of consistency has been a detriment for this club all season and it starts with the starting pitching, which I will get into below. They are, however, coming off of a nice series win in Starkville. They are likely looking at being a low 2 or high 3 seed this year in the NCAA regionals.
Team Stat Comparison (LSU in parentheses)
Runs/game scored: 5.8 (6.0)
Runs/game allowed: 3.9 (2.9)
Team ERA: 3.54 (2.58)
Opponent ERA: 4.92 (4.99)
Team BA: .293 (.276)
Opponent BA: .263 (.220)
Team Fielding %: .973 (.973)
Opponent Fielding %: .962 (.967)
Good OOC wins: @ Rice (1-0)
Bad OOC losses: Louisiana Tech (2-1)
SEC Series Wins: vs Florida (2-1), @ Vanderbilt (2-1), @ Mississippi State (2-1)
SEC Series Losses: @ Auburn (1-2), @ Georgia (1-2), vs Alabama (1-2), vs Kentucky (1-2)
Common OOC Opponents: None
Starting Pitching:
Like most teams, Texas A&M has had some volatility in their weekend rotation. They have started 5 different pitchers on the weekend this season and the record of those starts is 11-11. Straying away from recent weeks, coach Childress has decided to start senior Parker Ray. Ray will be making his first since a March 15 loss to Auburn. In his five starts, Ray is 2-1 with a 4.44 era and opponents hit .300 against him in those games for a very high 1.56 WHIP in 26.1 innings. His 21 walks are tied for most on the team in the fewest recorded innings among starters. Ray's fastball will be just 88-92, which is nothing special for a RHP, but his changeup is his best pitch. Ray will be dueling Aaron Nola, who is looking to bounce back from his worst start of the season last week. Of note: Texas A&M is just 3-8 this year in the opening game of a series, including 1-6 in SEC series.
Saturday, ESPN2 will feature a matchup between Jared Poché of LSU and Daniel Mengden of Texas A&M. Following a sensational sophomore campaign in which he was 2nd team all SEC with a 2.11 era, Mengden has taken somewhat of a step back as a junior. Formerly a two-way player, Mengden has turned his focus to pitching as the Friday night starter this season, but has faltered to a 3-6 record and just 1 win in the SEC. He's got the stuff to compete with a fastball up around 94 and a plus changeup. He has can strike out a lot of guys with that change, but he has surrendered a .350 BABIP (avg on balls in play) and really labored at times. Mengden earned the victory on Friday night of the series against LSU last season throwing 8 innings of 1 run ball. LSU freshman Jared Poché looks to build off of his best road outing, 6 innings of 2 run ball at Ole Miss. This may be the pivotal matchup of the series.
On Sunday, Grayson Long, the big 6'5 right handed power arm, will take to the bump for the Aggies. Long has been the best and most consistent starter for the A&M staff this season. He has a 5-1 record in SEC games with impressive wins over Florida, Vanderbilt, and Mississippi State. Long comes with a three-quarter arm slot and brings his fastball up to 95mph. He will throw a two variations of a breaking ball in addition to a changeup that is the better of the offspeed pitches. LSU has not announced a starter once again this weekend in the event that Alden Cartwright is needed in relief in game 1 or 2. However barring disaster, we will see Cartwright take the hill on Sunday. I have listed him as the starter below, though it is unofficial. Also of note: A&M is 6-1 in game 3 of SEC series.
Friday's Pitching Matchup:
LSU - Jr. RHP Aaron Nola (7-1, 1.40 ERA, 77.1 IP, 47 H, 12 ER, 19 BB, 95 K, .175 OBA, 0.85 WHIP)
TAMU - Sr. RHP Parker Ray (4-3, 5.48 ERA, 47.2 IP, 52 H, 29 ER, 21 BB, 41 K, .284 OBA, 1.53 WHIP)
Saturday's Pitching Matchup:
LSU - Fr. LHP Jared Poché (6-3, 2.59 ERA, 62.2 IP, 49 H, 18 ER, 18 BB, 40 K, .219 OBA, 1.07 WHIP)
TAMU - Jr. RHP Daniel Mengden (3-6, 4.00 ERA, 72.0 IP, 72 H, 32 ER, 21 BB, 75 K, .260 OBA, 1.29 WHIP)
Sunday's Pitching Matchup:
LSU - Fr. RHP Alden Cartwright (1-0, 1.59 ERA, 22.2 IP, 16 H, 4 ER, 5 BB, 18 K, .198 OBA, 0.93 WHIP)
TAMU - Sr. RHP Grayson Long (6-1, 2.79 ERA, 67.2 IP, 74 H, 21 ER, 17 BB, 44 K, .280 OBA, 1.34 WHIP)
Relief Pitching:
A&M does not have a true closer, but that hasn't prevented them from having a solid bullpen overall. They have a good balance of left and right arms and some power guys that can get out of jams when needed. If there is a developing closer it would be sophomore southpaw Ty Schlottman. He has really come on of late and earned the save in both wins last weekend to clinch the series against State. Andrew Vinson has appeared in half of the team's games and is best among regulars with just a .170 OBA and 0.79 WHIP. Lefty A.J. Minter has surrendered just 3 earned runs in 14.2 innings this season. Jason Jester has made a pair of Friday night starts in SEC play, but has not been very effective this season allowing 36 hits in 22.2 innings. Jester made two relief appearances against the Tigers last season, earning the save in game one and taking the loss in the rubber game 3.
Top Bullpen Arms:
Fr. LHP Tyler Stubblefield (15 app, 3-2, 4.12 ERA, 48.0 IP, 53 H, 22 ER, 15 BB, 50 K, .283 OBA)
So. LHP Ty Schlottman (16 app, 0-1, 2 saves, 24.1 IP, 18 H, 4 ER, 6 BB, 22 K, .205 OBA)
So. LHP A.J. Minter (18 app, 1-0, 1.84 ERA, 14.2 IP, 12 H, 3 ER, 10 BB, 14 K, .235 OBA)
So. RHP Andrew Vinson (23 app, 1-1, 2 saves, 2.57 ERA, 28.0 IP, 16 H, 8 ER, 6 BB, 28 K, .170 OBA)
So. LHP Matt Kent (12 app, 2-0, 3.38 ERA, 29.1 IP, 33 H, 11 ER, 4 BB, 23 K, .284 OBA)
Sr. RHP Jason Jester (19 app, 2-2, 3 saves, 5.16 ERA, 22.2 IP, 36 H, 13 ER, 13 BB, 22 K, .371 OBA)
Aggie Offense: (LSU numbers in parentheses)
Team BA: .293 (.276)
Team OBP: .369 (.364)
Team SLG: .389 (.387)
In 46 games, A&M has used 43 different starting lineups, so the projected list below is strictly guesswork. Nick Banks leads the team in batting average (.343) and slugging (.460) as a true freshman. Blake Allemand started the season off slow, but the switch hitting third baseman is batting .386 since March 7th and his .438 on base percentage is 6th best in the SEC. He has reached base in 22 straight games. Allemand and Banks are not slacking against SEC pitching notching a .373 and .363 average, respectively, in conference matchups. Though the team BA is .293, the Aggies improve for a .314 average in games at Blue Bell Park. Senior Jace Statum really likes enjoys his home park. He is batting a team best .371 at home this year, over .150 points higher than this average of .217 on the road. Logan Nottebrok will surely see some action this weekend, and he leads the team with 5 long balls on the season. Texas A&M doesn't run too much on the bases but does so very effectively. The biggest threat to steal is Krey Bratsen, who has stolen 16 bases in 17 attempts this year. Jace Statum has swiped 7 bags in as many attempts.
Texas A&M Projected Lineup:
1) 3B Blake Allemand (.326 avg, 3 2B, 3B, 20 RBI, 30 R, 27 BB, 20 K, 3-6 SB)
2) 2B Patrick McLendon (.309 avg, 3 2B, 3B, HR, 19 RBI, 23 R, 14 BB, 14 K, 1-2 SB)
3) 1B Cole Lankford (.335 avg, 9 2B, 4 HR, 37 RBI, 23 R, 9 BB, 12 K, 3-5 SB)
4) RF Nick Banks (.343 avg, 6 2B, 2 3B, 2 HR, 21 RBI, 23 R, 11 BB, 20 K, 4-7 SB)
5) DH Hunter Melton (.248 avg, 4 2B, 12 RBI, 12 R, 16 BB, 19 K, 1-2 SB)
6) SS Logan Taylor (.274 avg, 14 2B, 2 3B, HR, 21 RBI, 21 R, 9 BB, 33 K, 3-3 SB)
7) C Troy Stein (.289 avg, 8 2B, 2 3B, 17 RBI, 23 R, 11 BB, 18 K, 4-6 SB)
8) LF Jace Statum (.274 avg, 3 2B, 13 RBI, 19 R, 17 BB, 17 K, 7-7 SB)
9) CF Krey Bratsen (.276 avg, 3 2B, 3B, 9 RBI, 25 R, 8 BB, 10 K, 16-17 SB)
Other Contributors:
INF Logan Nottebrok (.237 avg, 5 2B, 5 HR, 21 RBI, 19 R, 14 BB, 17 K, 0-0 SB)
2B/OF Ryne Birk (.314 avg, 2 2B, 2 3B, 2 HR, 13 RBI, 13 R, 5 BB, 8 K, 3-3 SB)
OF Jonathan Moroney (.299 avg, 5 2B, 3B, HR, 12 RBI, 11 R, 3 BB, 13 K, 0-0 SB)
C Mitchell Nau (.291 avg, 3 2B, HR, 15 RBI, 6 R, 3 BB, 8 K, 1-1 SB)
OF J.B. Moss (.262 avg, 3 2B, HR, 7 RBI, 16 R, 12 BB, 10 K, 6-7 SB)
A&M is fielding a solid .973 as a team, which is just a small fraction better than LSU's .973, ranking 6th and 7th in the SEC respectively. Texas A&M has turned the fewest double plays in the SEC and ranks 282nd nationally in the category. The Aggies are particularly bad on the base paths defensively. The main catcher Troy Stein has thrown out just 21% of attempting stealers. LSU's catchers are 2nd in the SEC in throwing out base runners at a 42% mark, which will come in handy since the Aggies are 2nd in the SEC in SB% during conference games.

It is no secret that those of us who live and work in the field of farm and food production are highly political. That's partially because government programs, incentives and services touch every aspect of daily life in agriculture. Whether through subsidy payments, crop insurance, conservation programs or price and production reporting that helps to propel livestock grain and feed markets, government is an ever-present backdrop in the world of farming. Perhaps this is why an occupation made up of two million people (less than 1% of all Americans)--most of whom have off-farm incomes in addition to their farming work--can wield such important power and influence in national politics. When speaking with one voice, agriculture is a political force to be reckoned with.
But there is certainly more to the story than that. Within the farming community, there are clear political power struggles and controversies that cause this theoretically unified Farm Block to break down. Agriculture is not one big happy family. Unfortunately the power of strong rhetoric and confusing principles often lead the Big Ag Elite and the rural anti-government crowd to dominate the airways in Farm Country.
One example resides in their attack of the Department of Labor over proposed child labor laws in agriculture. Should we really be spending our time, effort and political energy spreading misinformation about the supposed "end of agriculture?" Should we be (inaccurately) debating the shut-down of 4H, FFA and other Vocational Agriculture Programs? We don't think so. Honestly, we think it's a no brainer to embrace a little bit of the modern worldview and provide safe working conditions for children. Yes, we're talking about children here, children employed in one of the most dangerous occupations where they are still allowed to work.
But find another couple of farmers willing to tell that side of the story. Where are they? We can't find them. Instead, we in agriculture are stuck inside a Conservative framing machine that says "government is bad; regulations are bad; taxing in order to spend is evil.* Barack Obama and the Democrats are trying to take away your farm and have declared war on agriculture."
(*Special Note: The Big Ag Elite does reserve the right to violate their principles when it comes to receiving crop subsidy payments and various government-funded crop insurance programs).
The current methods to control the debate in agriculture are taking the form of this weird quasi-astroturf effort to "tell agriculture's story," again attempting to paint the picture of one big happy agricultural scene without controversy or questions of legitimacy. Whether we're talking about the U. S. Farmers and Ranchers Alliance (a conglomeration of the commodity groups and various industrial ag supporters that has likely shown up on your Facebook ad banner) or these Food Dialogue panels that attempt to quell questions of industrial agriculture production, this whole sham is little more than a PR strategy in an age of social media and constant communication. It's there to preserve the myth that industrial agriculture is the only way to feed the world; that local food and organics are simply niches available to those farmers willing to take advantage of a few rich liberals.
One of the reasons why the local food response to Big Agriculture holds so much promise is the very different way it approaches these questions. Farmers serving up fair for local foodies tend to agree that Big Agriculture has failed us and that a cleaner, greener production system is better for our bodies and for society in general. Farmers markets are growing in numbers. Community Supported Agriculture programs are a shining star of direct relationships between farmers and consumers. Even grocers and Institutions like universities and hospitals are starting to carry local food. We've come a long way. Now, within the local food world, we're talking about capitalization strategies and scaling up and infrastructure. Much of this local food scene as been funded in part due to government assistance along the way (granted less than we would have liked).
With this in mind, we want to express our disagreement with those in the farm and food scene that poo-poo government's role in generating funding, support programs, regulations, rules and other means of service for the growing local food world. Would we change things about agricultural policy? Yes, starting with reforming things like subsidies to big agribusiness. However, we believe that democratic federal, state and local governments are one of the most powerful and effective tools our community has to address the failures of Industrial Agriculture while nurturing the opportunity available to local farmers and food entrepreneurs.
So that's why we're here to say that we support the updated child labor laws impacting agriculture. We say this as farmers who grew up on multigenerational family farms with big livestock and big tractors and small children. Under these proposed rules, children will still be able to feed the baby goats, work cattle, drive the 4-wheeler around and sit in the truckbed while kicking out some flakes of hay to the hungry animals. Our rural way of life is not threatened and we're not scared of Barack Obama for hatching a conspiracy to round us up and drive us out of agriculture once and for all.
The real issue, at the end of the day, boils down to politics. The Farm Bureau, the Cattlemen's Association, the American Meat Institute and others in the Conservative Big Agriculture frame all benefit from the fairy tale that the Democrats are in a war on Rural America and our "way of life." They need this narrative full of misleading sentiment because they have no factual basis for their claims. And, to their credit (if deception can be a credit), these folks are in the drivers' seat when it comes to setting the agenda for farm and food policy.
It's time for a new narrative in farm country. Let's stop looking to lynch Barack Obama (ouch-racial metaphor) and the Democrats as the lynchpin in a grand conspiracy of ending agriculture in America. Hell, let's stop lynching government itself while we're at it. That story might serve Republican politicians and corporate agribusiness very well, but it's a big fat lie. Here we are wasting our time talking about false idols when we could be doing something effective like breaking up monopolies, banning corporate meatpackers from owning livestock and investing in local food entrepreneurs as a new engine of economic growth throughout our nation.
Of course, those actions would take rules, regulations, government spending and maybe even a little bit of "red tape." And we can't have that, now, can we?
This 3-part blog post on the issues related to the Department of Labor's proposed child labor rules in agriculture is co-authored by Jake Davis and Bryce Oates. Jake and Bryce are both farmers and are co-owners of the Root Cellar Grocery in Downtown Columbia, MO. They are also co-founders of the Missouri Bounty Box, a weekly produce subscription program that links Missouri farmers with local folks seeking good food.

Clear Channel Outdoor is adding to its growing list of digital billboard networks with new displays in some of the largest DMA markets, including Chicago and Philadelphia. Building upon a successful network launch in Los Angeles this May, the company is also launching a second phase in that market this month.
Digital billboards display static messages that resemble standard printed billboards, but also allow advertisers to remotely and instantaneously change messages. With the opportunity to purchase campaigns cost efficiently by time of day, location or specific demographics, advertisers now can run highly targeted campaigns. In addition, Clear Channel's Digital Outdoor Networks enable advertisers, such as newspapers, television and radio stations, to deliver real-time information. Many municipal governments have been quick to embrace digital billboard technology because it affords transportation agencies, police departments and the Office of Homeland Security the ability to instantly post important public safety messages. Immediate notifications of severe weather conditions, highway closures, disaster preparedness needs or Amber Alerts can all be delivered to thousands of motorists in real time.
The company has now deployed 76 digital billboards since the first of the year. By the end of this month, Clear Channel Outdoor will be operating 16 digital billboard networks in the following 14 DMAs: Akron, OH; Albuquerque, NM; Chicago; Cleveland; Columbus, OH; El Paso, TX; Memphis, TN; Milwaukee; Minneapolis/St. Paul; Orlando, FL; Tampa Bay, FL; Wichita, KS; and two networks in Los Angeles and Las Vegas.

There are two ways to watch 3D TV - Active and Passive. Active and Passive 3D refers to both the type of glasses you have to wear to watch 3D, and the 3D ready TV you are using.
Active glasses contain LCD lenses that alternately 'block out' each eye depending on whether the left or right image is being displayed on the screen. They are referred to as active because they require a battery to operate the LCD lenses.
Passive glasses do not require any power to operate them. They use polarisation to separate out the left and right image, then work with polarised TVs that deliver two images to the viewer. The TVs have a filter integrated into the screen, and when switched into 3D mode, the filter orientates the light emitting from the screen differently for the left and right image. Passive is the type of technology you may have seen in the cinema.
