Carpenter Complex Scene
Not a cloud in the blue sky. Breeze from the south, temperature at 78 degrees.
Not a seat was filled at Bright House Field for a very good reason…..the Phillies were in Port Charlotte to face the Rays.
Next door at Carpenter Complex, two minor league games were played on the Roberts and Schmidt fields. Yankees and Phillies minor leaguers, AAA and AA squads. Bleachers between the two fields were pretty much filled. Fans were also standing along the Roberts field first base side.
Overhead, Dallas Green, Benny Looper and Chuck LaMar were observing. When Michael Stutes walked to the Roberts field mound, Dallas moved to behind home plate from the Schmidt field, the perch above the field. Stutes faced six hitters and struck out five in two innings. As he exited, fans cheered and Dallas went back to the Schmidt field perch.
Yesterday, I mentioned there were six more Florida games. Well, that was wrong. Forgot that on Saturday, the Phillies will have a split squad day, Toronto at home and in Sarasota for the Orioles.
Twins on Thursday and Braves on Friday will also be Clearwater games. Friday's game against a Braves split squad will be televised on ESPN.
Two interesting press releases were sent out today.
One was from the Phillies, announcing the new food options at Citizens Bank Park. Yep, you can now by a Tastykake at a Phillies game. Can't beat that.
The other came from MLB, a report on the top individual player jersey sales of 2010, a top 20 list. The Phillies have the most players among that group, four (Halladay #3, Utley # 4, Lee #5 and Howard #18).
The report also listed the top 10 teams in the sale of officially licensed MLB merchandise. The Phillies were fourth, behind the Yankees, Red Sox and Dodgers.
Phillies fans certainly are passionate about their ballclub.

The Importance of Creative Arts for Children and Teens
Teaching children about art is a good idea. It's been proven that early exposure to visual art, music, or drama promotes activity in the brain. Creating art is a fine way for children to make choices and solve problems. Every step involves making a decision: what colour to use, how to make a line, what size something should be. With every choice the object becomes more and more their own.Read more

U.S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission
If a complaint against a business (or some other private employer) involves race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy), national origin, disability or genetic information, the business is covered by the laws we enforce if it has 15 or more employees who worked for the employer for at least twenty calendar weeks (in this year or last).
If a complaint involves age discrimination, the business is covered by the laws we enforce if it has 20 or more employees who worked for the company for at least twenty calendar weeks (in this year or last).
Virtually all employers are covered by the Equal Pay Act (EPA), which makes it illegal to pay different wages to men and women if they perform substantially equal work in the same workplace.
Figuring out whether or not an employer is covered can be complicated. If you aren't sure about whether coverage exists, you should contact one of our field offices as soon as possible so we can make that decision. It is also important to keep in mind that, if an employer is not covered by the laws we enforce, the employer still may be covered by a state or local anti-discrimination law. If it is, we can refer you to the state or local agency that enforces that law.

Everybody who has children understands, and those who don't I don't believe can argue.
Quote from: yeshuaisiam on July 20, 2012, 10:09:57 PMEverybody who has children understands, and those who don't I don't believe can argue. Well I practically have to raise children because my parents rely on me to take care of my younger siblings all of the time and I do not understand. Life to me seems like it would be much easier without children.
I never wanted children until I had them. I couldn't be in the same room, or building if I could help it, with a kid. I never even held a baby until I had my first. Now, I love them. You may change your mind, but as suggested, talk to your priest.
Just out of curiousity, does the Orthodox Church grant marriage to couples who do not want to have any children? Are they still allowed to engage in sexual relations with each other using contraceptives, or are they forbidden from using contraceptives and expected to not engage in sex at all unless they are willing to have children?The reason I ask is because the other day--for some reason--my mother asked me if I ever want to have children when I become a man and get married. To her disappointment, I answered no, since children drive me off the wall. Being the oldest sibling is already hard enough to me; I cannot imagine how difficult and miserable it must be being a parent.Anyhow, this got me thinking, hypothetically in the future if I ever decide to marry a woman and we do not plan on having any children, would the Orthodox Church still marry us? If so, what would be expected of us and how would the beforehand mentioned questions affect us? Could we still have sex and use contraceptives, would we be expected to never have it until we want children or would marriage be forbidden to us altogether?
I liked my younger siblings well, and wasn't sure about children at all.Then I had them. I love them so much. Life would not be the same without them. They are absolutely wonderful.
If you were 16 and wanted children that would be something odd.
The Episcopallian road is easy and wide, for many go through it to find destruction. lol sorry channeling Isa.
The Orthodox Church is not the bedroom police.
Quote from: Νεκτάριος on July 21, 2012, 01:21:38 AMIf you were 16 and wanted children that would be something odd. I think if I asked each of my classmates if they want kids someday quite a few would say yes.
Read the text of the Orthodox marriage service.
If the Orthodox faith permitted a couple to be married with no intent of ever having children, then they would have a much weaker argument against same-sex marriage, that is for sure.
...you can imagine so-called healing services of the pigpen. The books that could be written, you know: Life in the Pigpen. How to Cope in the Pigpen. Being Happy in the Pigpen. Surviving in the Pigpen. And then there could be counselling, for people who feel unhappy in the pigpen, to try to get them to come to terms with the pigpen, and to accept the pigpen.
If you spend long enough on this forum, you'll come away with all sorts of weird, untrue ideas of Orthodox Christianity.
I would suggest most persons in general avoid any question beginning with why.
Father & I once had a conversation regarding this. Any contraceptive options are not allowed except the menstrual cycle method…
Maybe if we were Roman Catholics. Most Orthodox Priests would marry a couple with a sterility issue.
Quote from: NicholasMyra on July 21, 2012, 02:29:41 PMMaybe if we were Roman Catholics. Most Orthodox Priests would marry a couple with a sterility issue.There is a difference between being unable to have children and intentinally trying not to have children because you don't want them.
I've heard Orthodox priests comment that they could not, in good faith, marry a couple that intended to never have children.

It leaked orange out of my knapsack and all over my shirt. Even last week, I was wearing a new white blouse and I spilled tea on it. I don't really know what it is with me and white shirts, but hopefully this one will last more then two days because I really like it :)

H&M Fall 2012 Preview Party!
We saw the newest H&M Fall 2012 collection and fell in love! We brought Cubby (woof!) who LOVED all the attention, smiled the whole time and he even tried on one of his favorite hats! The H&M Fall collection is a mix of "Minimalism meets Maximalism." Our favourite pieces are the bejeweled ones with the colorful rhinestones. They are sooo Rock n' Roll mixed with a sporty nineties feeling. We also can't wait to get our hands on the structured herringbone tweed coats, printed neon nature prints and the sparkly statement jewelry. We had a blast trying on everything at the party and loved hangin' with our friends, the super fabulous H&M crew. These are our favourite looks below!

Basket Empty
Honey Bee Hanging Model. This model has been expertly drawn from a real honey bee to ensure it is as life like and as true to nature as possible. Approximately 150mm long, made from plywood. These are cut with 3 holes for hanging so they can hang at different angles - use thread or fishing line (not included). Supplied with separate wings - these can be slotted in. We also supply 2 corbicular pollen loads just for added realism and education (a honey bee leaving the bee hive would not be carrying pollen) - these need to be glued on.

At a CommonGood lunch meeting today, I asked Cory Booker, Mayor of Newark NJ, if the decline of the mainstream media has made it harder for him to engage with his community. He responded that while he felt that journalism was very important to democracy and society, its recent decline has had little impact on him since he has been able to use social media technology such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube to build direct, personal and often real-time connections with his constituents.
Today, although Newark NJ has fewer than 300,000 citizens, Mayor Booker has almost a million followers on Twitter, almost 17,000 supporters on Facebook and 550 subscribers to his YouTube channel. Booker regularly posts status updates to both Facebook and Twitter and has uploaded 75 videos including a regular "Week In Review." He regularly posts updates to his schedule, links to speeches he's given, quotes from things he's been reading, calls for participation in "Night Patrols" of Newark's streets, and kudos to local organizations whose work he admires.
Mayor Booker's comments reminded me that at the recent FTC Workshop on the future of journalism, Matthew Gentzkow of the University of Chicago presented research on "The Effect of Newspaper Entry and Exit on Electoral Politics." His research, which spanned the period from 1869 to 2004, indicated a fairly weak connection between the health of newspapers and electoral participation. He concludes that "monopoly paper closings may cause small to moderate declines in local [electoral] participation" and that there was "no evidence that newspaper closings will affect party vote shares or incumbency advantage." This evidence, combined with the personal experience of Mayor Booker, may indicate that communities are much more robust in their ability to obtain the information needed to sustain political and community engagement than some may be suggesting. Perhaps, just as on the Internet where we tend to "route around" anything that impedes the free flow of traffic, communities also find ways to route around forces that would otherwise limit discourse. Thus, it may be that rather than assuming on faith that it is vitally important to prop up and sustain the existing newspaper businesses, we should be seeking instead to determine what other tools and/or media best provide the platforms for discourse and engagement that we need.

What still seems to be missing and what we want to see in the future is also the option not only to purchase Gold with crypto currencies, but also to withdraw it in BTC or another crypto currency. For the moment you can still only Redeem your gold owned via a bank transfer, to a prepaid card or in a physical form sent to you. You can of course use the Gold Backed Prepaid MasterCard that the service offers to do regular everyday payments just like you can do with any other MasterCard or send Gold to other users by email similar to how PayPal works for money. So pretty much the only thing that the service needs now is to add the ability to convert your Gold to Bitcoin or another crypto currency and have it sent to your digital wallet.

Fair-play indicates the loyal acceptance of rules, not only to the letter but also in the spirit which presides over their definition.
For the runners, to be fair-play means respecting the race regulations, not cheating, not bending the rules, refusing all forms of doping; but also embodying the human values of trail-running throughout all of their races; mutual aid and solidarity with the other runners, respect for all the players present at the races.
For organisers, respecting fair-play supposes the implementation of the necessary means to fight against "...cheating, bending the rules, doping, ...physical and verbal violence ...exploitation, unequal opportunities, excessive commercialisation and corruption" (extract from the Council of Europe's Code of Sports Ethics).

Review: Playskool's Showcam {Giveaway}
MommyMaestra Holidays (#MMHolidays) are here!
So I'm kicking off things a little early because I have a few giveaways that I do not want to run all together and I know that many of you will be shopping this coming weekend! Maybe you can mark this one off your list? If you are looking for ideas for educational products to gift to your children this holiday season, I have already put together a fabulous (FREE!) Holiday Gift Guide filled with lots of great products. But in addition to the guide, I'll be sharing reviews of other fun and educational products (not featured in the guide) plus a few giveaways, too!
The Playskool Showcam
Retails for $64.99
First up is the Showcam by Playskool. What makes this little digital camera so special is that it is also a projector, displaying the fabulous pictures your child has taken onto a wall or screen. Your child can also have fun chooing from more than 50 silly effects to dress up their photos. My 7-year-old son loved taking pictures of us wearing crowns, hats, and more. He even begged us to take photos of him after he chose what designs to add to the photo. The buttons and levers on the camera are all large and colorful, perfect for little fingers.
This camera is really designed for younger children - I would say the best age range is 3 to 7 years old. However, I also used it with my 9 yo by giving her an assignment to go around and take pictures of different leaves, then come back and give me a report while projecting the photos she took onto the wall.
You can even save, print, or share your child's photos by hooking it up to your computer. You'll need a USB cable, though. (Not included!)
The Showcam is a great way to nurture your child's inner photographer and encourages him to look closely at his environment. You can make it more educational by assigning a presentation like I did with my 9 year old, and then sending them out to collect images for it.
The Giveaway
One MommyMaestra reader will receive the Playskool Showcam! How great is that? You get to stock up on holiday gifts and don't even have to buy it. :)
To enter, simply use the Rafflecopter below.
¡Buena suerte!

DOVER — Jeffrey Gelinas, also nicknamed "Jack the Snipper," appeared at Strafford Superior Court Wednesday to face the charge alleging he exposed himself to an 11-year-old girl in February.
Gelinas, 37, formerly of Manchester, is facing a misdemeanor indecent exposure charge after allegedly exposing himself to the girl while she was shopping with her mother at Bed Bath and Beyond in Dover.
The two-day trial for Gelinas' charge began Wednesday, and will continue today, according to court officials.
According to court documents, after the 11-year-old girl reported the alleged indecent exposure incident to her mother, Gelinas was spotted holding something over his groin.
In 2003 and 2004, Gelinas was the sole suspect in a string of burglaries in which a man "snipped" off, or removed, the clothing of sleeping women after breaking into their Durham apartments.
In a Feb. 6 article, Foster's reported that the suspect "cut off and/or removed clothing from women while sleeping in the privacy of their own apartments. Gelinas was ultimately arrested after a woman reported to police that she had woken to a man trying to remove a screen from her window."
Gelinas was the primary suspect in eight other burglaries, and in 2004, he pleaded guilty to a single felony burglary charge, for which he was sentenced to 1� to 8 years in state prison.
Gelinas was released on parole in April of 2012 after appearing before the adult parole board in February of that year.
The verdict for his newer indecent exposure charge is expected to be issued today.

Black Friday, un venerdì da record per il mobile1 12 2011
È stato un "venerdì nero" da record per gli Stati Uniti: nel corso del giorno successivo al Ringraziamento, tipicamente caratterizzato da sconti in numerosi negozi a stelle e strisce, ha infatti registrato in incremento del 24,3% nelle vendite rispetto allo stesso giorno del 2010. In crescita anche l'e-commerce legato ai dispositivi mobile, sempre più utilizzati per fare compere online.
Il traffico online per gli acquisti nel corso del Black Friday vede infatti una percentuale vicina ai 15 punti per smartphone e tablet, mentre lo scorso anno tale segmento del mercato elettronico era fermo al 5,6%. Focalizzando invece l'attenzione direttamente sugli acquisti effettuati dai dispositivi mobile la percentuale si assesta al 9,8%, in sensibile aumento rispetto al 3,2% del 2010. Sempre più persone, insomma, utilizzano il proprio device per effettuare shopping online.
Nel complesso, secondo alcune statistiche, l'e-commerce mobile è cresciuto del 500% nel corso dell'ultimo anno: tale dato proviene direttamente dai database di PayPal, che ha segnalato un simile incremento nel corso dell'ultimo Black Friday. Secondo Coremetrics, invece, circa il 17% delle visite ricevute da 500 dei principali portali di vendite online nel corso dell'ultimo venerdì sarebbe legato a smartphone e tablet, mentre lo scorso anno tale percentuale si aggirava intorno ai 5 punti.
A dominare le classifiche vi sono in prima fila i prodotti Apple, con iPhone ed iPad in prima e seconda posizione, seguiti a ruota dall'esercito Android. Da soli i due device della mela morsicata hanno catturato circa il 10% del traffico nel web per gli acquisti nel corso del Black Friday, mentre tutti insieme i dispositivi basati sull'OS di Mountain View hanno superato di poco quota 4 punti percentuali.

Zentralblatt MATH (zbMATH) is the world's most comprehensive reference database in mathematics, which makes it an indispensable tool for mathematicians both at university level and in industry.
The database incorporates the Jahrbuch für Mathematik (1868 bis 1943) – the predecessor of zbMATH –, ensuring systematic coverage of mathematical publications dating back to 1868, and in some cases even to 1826.
zbMATH currently comprises about 3 million records from more than 3,500 journals and 1,100 series, as well as monographs, textbooks, conference proceedings, and electronic documents. About 120,000 new records are added each year; of these, about 40 percent are original peer reviews by more than 6,000 internationally renowned experts. Worldwide coverage, including Eastern Europe and Asia, is ensured by cooperations with twelve scientific institutions.
The database has state-of-the-art features addressing the users' specific requirements. The user-friendly display integrates MathML (Mathematics Markup Language) and enables the display of complex mathematical equations. There is an author identification function for searching and unique identification of author names, which is indispensable for establishing complete publication lists of relevant publications in mathematics. zbMATH is jointly published by FIZ Karlsruhe, Springer-Verlag, the Heidelberg Academy of Science, and the European Mathematical Society. There is also a Scientific User Committee in an advisory function, headed by Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut in Oberwolfach.
