The White House has released details of a small business tax break that will be included in President Obama's budget, which is due out on Monday. Mr. Obama will tout this plan during a Friday visit to Baltimore.
This information was provided by the White House in a release on Thursday afternoon.
Small Business Jobs and Wages Tax Cut
In one year, our economy has come back from the brink of depression, and is now growing again. But as the President made clear in his State of the Union address, he will not be satisfied until economic growth is translating into robust job growth. Although businesses are beginning to invest and expand again, many remain reluctant to hire. In this environment, we have a unique opportunity to accelerate the pace of job growth by providing businesses - particularly America's small businesses - with a tax cut for putting more Americans back to work. That is why the President is outlining the details of his proposed "Small Business Jobs and Wages Tax Cut." The proposal is simple and straightforward:
⢠Businesses will receive a $5,000 tax credit for every net new employee that they employ in 2010. The total amount of credit will be capped at $500,000 per firm, to ensure that the majority of the benefit goes to small businesses.
⢠Small businesses will be reimbursed for the Social Security payroll taxes they pay on real increases in their payrolls. Specifically, firms that increase wages, expand hours or hire new workers would get a credit against the added payroll taxes that result. This bonus would be based on Social Security payrolls, so it would not apply to wage increases above the current taxable maximum of $106,800.
⢠Firms will be able to claim the credit on a quarterly basis, which gets money out to businesses quickly and provides an early incentive to hire and increase payrolls. Non-profits will be eligible for the credit and start-ups will be eligible for half the credit.
⢠The proposal is estimated to cost $33 billion.
Examples of how the Small Business Jobs and Wages Tax Cut would work:
⢠Tax credits for new hires. A small business that hires ten new employees in 2010 will receive a $50,000 tax credit to help offset the costs of those new hires. However, if the same small business lays off ten employees in 2010 and hires five new employees, it would receive no credit.
⢠Tax credits for pay raises. A small business with 50 employees that, through increased hours or higher pay, provides all of its employees a $1,000 real wage increase in 2010 will receive a $3,100 tax credit, enough to cover the Social Security payroll taxes on those increases.
⢠No benefits for gaming. A small business that fires 10 workers and hires 10 workers to replace them would see no net increase in employment and thus would not receive a credit. A small business that lays off 10 employees making $50,000 each and hires 20 employees making $25,000 each will receive no credit. Likewise, a small investment firm that raises salaries for its top employees from $300,000 to $350,000 will not receive a credit.
The Congressional Budget Office recently identified this type of job creation tax cut as the most effective way to help accelerate job growth of all the policy options it evaluated. The general approach has received support from a wide range of economic analysts and experts, including Morgan Stanley, the Economic Policy Institute, the Small Business Majority, Paul Krugman, Mark Zandi, and Alan Blinder.
President Obama's Small Business Jobs and Wages Tax Credit is designed to provide a cost-effective, immediate jump-start to job creation and wage growth. The credit will provide American businesses with a powerful short term incentive to not only create good jobs but to increase wages and hours for Americans with jobs who face ongoing economic uncertainty in the current environment.
⢠A $5,000 tax credit for each net new job created in 2010. Employers would receive a tax credit of up to $5,000 against their payroll taxes for every net new employee they hire in 2010. The credit is designed to help jumpstart job growth by giving employers an incentive to add jobs or accelerate the hiring they would have done later in the future. Start-ups would be eligible for half the credit, which provides an incentive for entrepreneurship while avoiding gaming. The credit would be administered off an employer's unemployment insurance wage base (equal to 72% of the unemployment insurance wage base increase, or $5,000 credit for each additional worker who earns at least $7,000).
⢠An additional tax credit to reimburse payroll taxes on increases in inflation-adjusted payrolls. Businesses will receive a bonus 6.2 percent tax credit on aggregate wages in excess of inflation - reimbursing the employer for the Social Security payroll taxes they pay on those payroll increases. This provides firms with an incentive to increase wages or work hours for existing employees as well as hire new employees at a higher wage. This wage bonus would be calculated off the Social Security payroll tax base, so firms would not get credit for increasing wages for employees making more than the current taxable maximum of $106,800.
⢠A cap at $500,000 per business to incentivize small business hiring. All firms with net employment increases will be eligible for these credits. But to ensure that small businesses receive the bulk of the incentive to hire, the maximum credit will be limited to $500,000 per business.
⢠Anti-abuse provisions to ensure that employers do not game the system. Businesses that reduce employment or payrolls in 2010 would be ineligible for both the $5,000 credit and the wage bonus. The credit would also include anti-abuse provisions designed to deny or limit the credit to employers that seek to game the system by, for example, replacing full-time employees with part-time employees. This will include limiting the maximum jobs credit amount to 25% of the increase in a firm's Social Security payroll wage base. In addition, rules would prevent businesses from renaming themselves or merging in order to claim the credit.
⢠Quarterly payment option to accelerate payments to firms. Employers would have the option of receiving the tax credit on a quarterly estimated basis. This helps get money in the hands of employers earlier in the year, could help increase awareness of the credit and provides an early incentive to hire.

Translating Science from Monkeys to Mothers
Some noteworthy news recently came out from the UK: It's also noteworthy here in Oregon because one of the two techniques (yeah, there are actually two) was developed at OHSU's Oregon National Primate Research Center. Forbes summarized both procedures in this recent article: One is being pioneered by Shoukhrat Mitalipov at the Oregon National Primate Research Center in Beaverton. His method involves inserting the nucleus from an egg with faulty mitochondria into … Read More

Anyone who has traveled to or from the island since Wednesday will have noticed the barge sitting just south of the middle bridge. It is hard to miss.
Around 3 p.m. on Wednesday the tugs were moving the barges, and rounding the south end of the island.
"It was exciting to see the barges move into place," said GIBA board president David Hayes. "This is step one, getting the temporary bridge set on land. It is affirmation that construction has begun."
According to the timeline presented at the Public Information Meeting on February 28, the temporary south bridge should be up and running within 120 days.
At that time, the demolition of the old bridge will begin. There is a new 15 mph work zone speed limit in effect, extending from 1000' north of the swing bridge to 1000' south of the south bridge. There are plans to move the northern end of the zone to just north of the south bridge until work starts on the center bridge.
"The zone is part of the Maintenance of Traffic plan. It is for the safety of the workers," explained Executive Director Jim Cooper. "Right now the only real slow-down in traffic is from people stopping to watch the cranes work."
There will be a barge assigned to the south bridge for the duration of construction. Once work begins on the middle bridge, it will also have its own full-time barge.
"Most of the construction will take place on the barges, over the water, instead of on land," Cooper said. "It is one more step that Orion is taking to ensure the safety of their workers and of everyone who uses the bridges."
Up next on the GIBA schedule is a Finance Committee Meeting on Tuesday, March 20 at 2:00 p.m. in the Community Center Auditorium. The meeting is open to the public, and everyone is encouraged to attend.

Olympic athletes might appear to have the cardiovascular and respiratory systems of superheroes. But a new study reveals that one in 12 Olympic athletes uses asthma treatments. The findings are in the British Journal of Sports Medicine. [Kenneth Fitch, An Overview of Asthma and Airway Hyper-Responsiveness in Olympic Athletes]
That usage has jumped since the mid-'90s. So the International Olympic Committee now requires athletes to provide medical proof of an asthma diagnosis before allowing them to use an inhaler during the competition.
Both cold and polluted air increase the risk for asthma, affecting winter and summer athletes alike. Dangerous ozone and particulate matter are worse in warm weather, so athletes in the Summer Olympics are slightly more likely to suffer from asthma. Winter events, such as cross-country skiing, can also damage airways with cold air and ice particles.
But athletes with asthma have a better chance of winning—and not because the drugs enhance their performance. Asthma occurs more often in older endurance athletes, suggesting that years of intense training could be to blame for the condition—and to thank for the conditioning.
—Katherine Harmon

The only drawback to the film is some of the characters are a bit incomplete. I think the characters of the "mother" and the "housekeeper" needed a bit more work. The style in which they are drawn is different than the other characters in the film.
Both are made to look and act much differently from the other characters, which brought me a bit out of the film.
That being said, "The Secret World of Arrietty" is still well worth seeing, but is not the classic ir should have been
It gets a C and is rated G.

As most fans probably noticed, over the past two days the official Star Wars: The Old Republic website remained down for an extended period. As Twitter and other social media sites buzzed with speculation as to what the downtime meant, and players shared their official SWTOR forum withdrawal symptoms, I began wondering what kind of massive change could take over 24 hours for them to implement. And then a thought occurred to me: Domain name servers (DNS) can often take a full 24 hours to realize changes made to website domains.
For those not familiar with the technical intricacies of how a DNS works, basically a website's domain name (such as "SWTOR.COM" or "Darthhater.com") is associated with an IP address. The IP address represents the physical location of the web servers the website is running on. If the website moves, the DNS entries must update so that the domain name points to the new IP address. The process of getting all the DNS servers across the world to recognize the new IP address can take more than 24 hours.
So I did a ping of the SWTOR.com address yesterday when maintenance started. The IP address was 184.108.40.206, a server owned by EA in Redwood City, California. Performing that same ping today, now that maintenance has ended, shows an IP address of 188.8.131.52, a server located in Austin, Texas.
It appears as though one of the things done during yesterday's downtime was a change in the location of the physical website servers. They are now in Austin, Texas with the rest of the BioWare Austin team.

text: This exquisite home, located in the heart of Preston Hollow on over 1.5 acres, was designed by noted architect Elby Martin, and built by Means and Matthews. Evocative of the French Riviera, its exceptional architectural features, abundant light, and classic outdoor spaces and terraces combine to create an extraordinary ambiance and lifestyle. A winding drive leads to the entry courtyard of this stately home. One enters through the glass and wrought iron front door into the limestone foyer. The wide central gallery, with its enfilade of arched doorways, leads the eye to the lush grounds and pool beyond. The vertical/horizontal floor plan creates an amazing grace and symmetry throughout. Wrapped with large arched casement windows and serenely decorated with a soft neutral palate, the light and luster of this home is instantly felt. The dining room and library/music room have hand etched pine paneling with rich detail. From the entry hall one steps down to the quarter sawn, hand scraped parquet floors of pale oak. Once again, symmetry reigns with triple arches flanking both sides of the room which lead to the rear gallery, terrace, and pool. Off of the rear gallery one finds the fieldstone floored kitchen, with beamed ceilings and limestone walls. A built-in Welsh cupboard functions as both desk and command center. The spacious breakfast room and warm family room with large fireplace and views over the rear garden, open to the kitchen. In addition, an auxiliary hallway leads to a stone floored craft/work room, laundry room, and scullery, or butler's pantry with bar-perfect for entertaining on all levels. The very private master suite includes an elegant "sleeping room," which can be opened to the sunroom/morning room through large pocket doors. The very spacious master bath has a double shower, his and her vanities, water closets, and amazing walk-in closets with terrific storage. Also on the first level is a perfectly designed suite of rooms offering guests the ultimate in convenience and access through the attached single bay garage. The bedroom, sitting room, kitchenette, bathroom and enormous closet create a supremely comfortable arrangement. Upstairs one finds three gracious bedrooms and baths, two with their own studies and views over the rear grounds. The third bedroom with coved ceiling and charming bath overlooks the front courtyard. Additionally one finds a charming office and large media or play room, both with views over the front courtyard. The landscaping was designed by guru, Harold Leidner. The elegant gardens and pool are framed by a pergola for lounging and a cabana of extraordinary standards. A huge covered room with gas grill anchors the cabana. Inside one finds a pool room, media room dining/sitting room, and full bath. The limestone edged pool forms a classic rectangle, perfect for lap swimming. In addition, a sport court lies beyond the cabana. The main garage holds 3 cars. The attic above is accessed by its own stairway and is completely floored and has large dormer windows. This space offers fabulous storage, and is ideal for future finish out. In addition to all of this stunning home's features, special attention was taken to make it an environmentally healthy living space. A few examples of this are: whole house water filtration; no urea or formaldehyde construction; "friendly" magnetic field electric setups throughout the home; space guarded filtration on each A/C unit. This masterful home makes one reminiscent of summer days in the south of France, or winters in Palm Beach. It is a rare combination of workmanship, design, and sophistication rarely seen.

Yesterday morning I went out to shoot some cottontails that were hanging a little too close to my garden. I took a CZ .22 long rifle.
Yesterday evening I went over to my buddies ranch to shoot some jackrabbits that were eating his cow's grass. I used a CZ .17 HMR.
Neither of these incidents is noteworthy in and of themselves. The interesting part of this tale is that I used the same basic rifle for both events. Yep, CZ has on the market a neat little rifle that has a quickly interchangeable barrel system that allows the owner (not a gunsmith) to easily change from the inexpensive .22 long rifle to the more powerful (and more expensive) .17 Hornady Rimfire Magnum. It is the CZ 455 American Combo Package. See it at the CZ website. http://www.cz-usa.com/products/view/455-american/
After my cottontail expedition yesterday morning I went to my workshop, got out my screwdriver set and swapped the barrels out. It was an uncomplicated job that would have been considerably more uncomplicated if the included instructions had been a bit more complete (there is a video on the CZ website that demonstrates how to change the barrels, but I don't have a computer in my workshop). Even with having to figure out a couple of insufficiently explained steps, the job was simple, and I had the barrels swapped and was sighting in the little rifle for the .17 HMR in less than 30 minutes.
The difference in point of impact at 50 yards wasn't much, and if I had been satisfied with 50 yards I probably wouldn't have changed a thing, but I wanted the gun ready for anything up to a hundred yards, so I adjusted the sights until it was dead center at a hundred.
Everyone knows how a .22 long rifle hollow point handles a cottontail, so I won't go into that, but I was, I admit, a bit surprised at how well the .17 HMR handled the jackrabbit. I found the big jack hanging around my buddy's feed yard, nibbling on the sweet, tender forbs that have sprung up after our recent rains. It was after dark and he was just barely visible in the upper edge of my friend's headlight beams. I leaned out the passenger window, took a solid rest on the big mirror on his ranch truck, got the jackrabbit in the 4X scope, and squeezed the trigger. At the pop of the CZ there was a thump from the rabbit and he flopped over and never even kicked. The little 20-grain hollow point hit the rabbit behind the right shoulder and left an exit wound an inch across in the ribs of his left side.
I love the CZ. It's accuracy is superior and the ability to change from .22 long rifle which currently costs about 20 bucks for a box of 550 hollow points, to the .17 HMR which currently costs from $12 to $20 a box of 50 rounds, is a real boon to the shooter. He can practice with the inexpensive .22 long rifle, and if he feels he needs the power, switch over to the .17 HMR, with minimal trouble.
The only thing I would do differently, if I were CZ, is that I would offer the outfit with a .22 Magnum barrel, as an option. The .17 HMR is a nifty, accurate, flat-shooting cartridge, but the tiny bullets do tend to lack in penetration and often will fragment like itty-bitty grenades. I tested the .17 HMR when it first came out and found that it worked well on critters up to the size of jackrabbits, but failed much too often on animals such as coyotes and bobcats. After several failures on well hit animals I just quit using it on anything larger than the big hares. The .22 WMR, while still insufficient for any bigger animal, does have a larger, heavier bullet, which provides greater penetration. In the case of a person who thinks he just has to use a rimfire on the larger animals, the .22 WMR is a much better choice. While I do not reccommend the practice, our executive editor, Chester Moore, has used the .22 WMR successfully on wild hogs, using very carefully aimed head shots.
This really is a neat package for the guy or gal who wants both calibers in high quality guns, but doesn't want to plop down that much hard-earned cash. Nice. Very nice.

A seven-time convicted drunken driver was sentenced to five years in prison Friday.
John C. Baker had a blood alcohol level of 0.252 when he was pulled over in Waupun Feb. 11, 2011, about three weeks after his release from prison for his sixth drunken driving conviction, according to a news release from Fond du Lac County District Attorney Daniel Kaminsky.
A level of 0.08 is legal proof of intoxication for motorists in Wisconsin.
According to the release, Baker is serving another 17 months in prison after being revoked from extended supervision for his sixth offense drunken driving conviction in 2007. His fifth offense occurred in 2003.
After serving a year in jail he was also revoked from probation in that case, according to the release.

Babysteps Freezer Storage Trays
As long as you're whipping up fresh purees, why not put some away for later? These freezer trays are perfect for storing individual portions for later use. After they're frozen, you can even pop the cubes into a freezer bag and go for round two!
Why it's a giggle pick For anyone who makes their own food, a great set of storage trays are a must-have!

We are still using these at 18 months and just bought a few more, I make all kinds of veggies even with meat and freeze them in these containers and pop them out daily for meals. They are perfect and work really well.

Rated 4 out of 5 by pmacc Good Storage
These trays are great for storage. Easy to get food out of and clean up nicely in the dishwasher. Only issue I have had since my purchase two months ago is that one of the tabs broke off of a lid.

Rated 1 out of 5 by 1 Plastic is not sturdy
I bought 4 of these freezer trays to store pureed foods for our babies. After freezing the food, I popped out the food cubes and noticed that the plastic inside the cube had scraped off (this happened on 3 trays. I threw away the food cubes because they probably had plastic scraps or shavings inside of them. It was very disappointing and frustrating to have to throw away organic baby food that took a lot of time and effort to make. The plastic on these freezer trays needs to be made more sturdy to withstand freezing and having the food cubes popped out without accumulating plastic slivers.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Firstmom Nice portions, but...
I make my own baby food and bought the trays to freeze the extra food. While they are very convenient, I found that with certain foods that do not freeze well (like bananas) are very difficult to pop out of the trays. I ended up buying the silicone ones as well and love them.
October 5, 2009
Rated 3 out of 5 by logillespie Doesn't preserve baby food well
Although this is easy to use, I found that the purees did not keep well because you take them in and out of the freezer often and sometimes it wasn't that easy to pop out an individual serving without others coming out too.
October 5, 2009
Rated 5 out of 5 by amasigma Can't get enough of these!
These trays are so handy. I try to make baby food as much as possible and these trays are so convenient. I used to freeze the food in ice cube trays with plastic wrap over it, but now I don't have to. The lids are awesome. They keep out freezer funk and prevent messy accidents when loading them into the fridge. My baby eats more now so I just pop out 2 cubes instead of 1.
If you're not into making baby food, you can still use the trays to freeze jarred food. Pop a cube into a container and off you go...the cube will be defrosted by the time your baby needs to eat while you're out!
June 30, 2009
Rated 5 out of 5 by wisecat Better than ice trays
Everyone says to use ice trays but they don't usually have lids. The lids keep the food from getting freezer burn and also have space for writing what's in them. Pair this with the Beaba baby food maker or the baby food book for a great gift!
June 30, 2009
Rated 5 out of 5 by Sherri Love these!
Holds the perfect amount, easy to use. Only thing is that carrots and squash easily stain the trays. But, overall, a great product...we've bought 4 packages of them!

Candidates in the upcoming Bryan elections took their messages to the citizens in a forum Monday night.
The Bryan/College Station Chamber of Commerce hosted the event, which streamed live here at KBTX.com and was heard on NewsTalk 1620. WTAW's Scott DeLucia was the moderator.
Incumbent Single Member District 5 Councilmember Art Hughes is facing Craig Regan in the election.
Greg Owens and Steve Ramirez are running in a special election for SMD3.
The current SMD3 councilmember, Chuck Konderla, is running for the at-large seat because his home is no longer in the district he was elected to represent following redistricting. Konderla faces Lloyd Joyce and Rafael Pena.
Pena was the only candidate for city council that did not attend the forum. The current at-large seat-holder, Mike Southerland, cannot run for re-election due to term limits.
Tommy Bosquez delivered a statement at the beginning of the event. He is running for the at large seat on the Bryan school board. His opponent, Sylvester Smith, did not attend the forum. The incumbent, Merrill Green, is not running for re-election.
There are no contested races for College Station city council or school board.
Early voting runs through November 2. Election Day is November 6.

Kyle Franzoni has the unfortunate distinction of having his very first baseball memory be that of Mookie Wilson's slow grounder going through the legs of Bill Buckner. Since then, it has been an up and down love affair with the game, which naturally lead to putting his thoughts to digital paper and trying his hand at writing about the game he loves. A native of Vermont, where he lives with his wife and twin sons, Kyle is editor of Jays Journal and is the Editorial Director for FanSided MLB.

A powerful stage monitor with its own volume and EQ.
The 125W Behringer EUROLIVEF1220A Active Monitor has its own EQ and volume. You not only have control of the output, you can also tweak the highs, mids, and lows for a clear, true sense of your sound. It's a proven fact that the better you can hear yourself, the better you'll play—isn't it time you got active?
Great sound takes guts
Inside these Behringer loudspeakers is the equivalent of a 2-way electronic crossover, a graphic equalizer, parametric equalizer, a mic preamp, and two power amplifiers! A 12" long excursion driver delivers deep, punchy lows while a 1" titanium-diaphragm compression driver gives you clean, crisp highs. They all work together with 125 watts of handling power and don't need adjustments or a degree in sound engineering.
Triumphant transducers
Every stitch of these loudspeakers is built to deliver, but the fact is that their transducers (woofers and tweeters) are the only part you actually hear. While some manufacturers are okay with putting off-the-shelf transducers in their boxes, we custom-design and build ours from scratch. Not only do we wind our own voice coils, we grow the trees that are processed into the paper pulp that becomes the cones. We even machine the frames and backplates. Behringer's quality is truly under control.
Speaking of control…
The Behringer F1220A Powered Monitor doesn't just sound great. It also gives you instant control of your monitor mix, even in mid-performance—something passive monitors simply cannot deliver! Need more volume? Turn the LEVEL dial until the desired volume is reached without activating the CLIP LED. Sound too bassy or trebly? Just reach down and use the three-band EQ (High, Mid, Low) to tailor a rich, exciting sound. We've even given you a line of defense against live sound's greatest enemy. If you're experiencing feedback, just press the Feedback Filter switch, then slowly turn the Frequency dial until feedback is eliminated.
Anytime, anywhere you choose
This Behringer monitor doesn't just cater to musicians. It's excellent for anyone with a need to be heard! With just one F1220A and a microphone or MP3 player, you can set up an instant sound system. Thanks to the built-in preamp section, you can connect a dynamic mic directly to the F1220A and raise and lower the volume with the Level control. Suddenly, it's showtime in no time at all. The F1220 also has a 35mm socket so you can easily mount it on a pole for use in a PA system.
Awesome sound, unbelievable value
The Behringer F1220APowered Monitor is designed to give your next crazed rant/public announcement/synthesizer recital exactly the monitor or PA sound you want with minimal prep time. Suddenly a monitor sound that once was only available in a recording studio is available in virtually any live setting. Loaded with a slew of incredible features but not loaded down by a heavy price tag.
You'll sing and play better when you can hear yourself! Order today.
Our product catalog varies by country due to manufacturer restrictions. If you change the Ship-To country, some or all of the items in your cart may not ship to the new destination.

Reviews for Chewy Peanut Butter Pan Squares(15)
Sort By :
My family loved these. I love them because of their ease and quite affordable. Thanks! I even modified due to ingredients. I had 2/3 stick of butter so I added some vegetable oil to make up the difference, I added just a little more peanut butter and 1/2 tsp baking powder. They were perfect in my opinion.
Quick, easy and delish. It's a classic bar recipe that really delivers.
doubled the rec used 1/2 brown sugar and added a bag of white chocolate chips
I made this today for the 1st time and loved it. My company liked it so much she wanted the recipe. The only thing I did differently is , I did not melt the butter. It came out light and brownie like. I melted chocolate chips on top and spread them once softened. I'd make it again!
I did make these bars & they were really good! They're a keeper in my book!

URGENT - Cleveland Missing Women Police
(CNN) -- Since the disappearances of the three women who were found in Cleveland on Monday, police had been at the home where they allegedly were held captive once -- in January 2004 -- city public safety director Martin Flask said at a news conference Tuesday. Flask said investigators were there at the request of Children and Family Services to investigate a complaint that Ariel Castro -- one of the three men arrested this week -- left a child on a school bus while he was working as a school bus driver. Investigators knocked on the door but were "unsuccessful in making contact," Flask said. The matter was later dropped when investigators later determined Castro had no criminal intent, Flask said.

Nationals campaigning for a big future 03/13/2008 10:00 AM ETBy Kevin T. Czerwinski / MLB.com
The future success of every Major League team lies in its Minor League system. With that in mind, each preseason, MLB.com takes a top-to-bottom look at all 30 organizations, from top prospects to recent draft picks. The idea that Washington will be the nation's baseball capital before long doesn't sound too farfetched these days. There was a time when the Nationals, formerly the Expos, were the butt of many a joke around baseball. Now, however, the joke's on everyone else. Thanks to a few shrewd offseason moves -- importing Lastings Milledge being one of them -- and a very strong series of drafts, the Nats are clearly headed in the right direction. They've rebuilt mostly from within and with a bevy of superb young arms and a few booming bats, the future looks bright in the District of Columbia. Here's a closer look at some of what Washington has to offer this season. 10 Spot
Ten prospects to watch out for in 2008:
Chris Marrero, OF/1B
The kid has power and projects to be a wonderful addition to the middle of Washington's lineup before long. Marrero will likely split the season between the Carolina and Eastern Leagues and could have a Major League ETA of sometime in 2009. There's really no need to rush him, especially since the Nats tried him out at first base in the Instructional League, a position at which they seem more inclined to keep him.
Collin Balester, RHP
Balester doesn't walk many, but he doesn't strike out many either. He'll give up his share of hits -- he's certainly not a swing-and-miss kind of pitcher -- but in the long run he simply seems to get the job done. Balester will more than likely begin the year back in Columbus (he was 2-3 with a 4.18 ERA in 10 starts there last year), but don't be surprised if he's in D.C. at some point this summer.
Colton Willems, RHP The light workload seemed to agree with him as he posted a 0.92 ERA in 29 1/3 innings over his final six starts. He worked extensively with former big leaguer David West while in high school and shows some polish based on that experience. He's got a nice mid-90s fastballs and knows how to use it. He'll likely begin the season in the Sally League, but don't be surprised if he moves up to Potomac.
"Whatever his high-water mark is, we'll probably start him low and let him get his feet on the mound," assistant general manager Mike Rizzo said. "We want him to have consistency and success. He's throwing tremendously this spring and he's a great prospect. What the scouts saw in him is starting to come to the top."
Adam Carr, RHP
He was 4-2 last year while splitting time between Potomac and Harrisburg, posting a 1.78 ERA in 60 2/3 innings. He also had 12 saves and held the opposition to a .175 batting average over 212 at-bats. Carr is 5-1 with a 2.08 ERA in 64 Minor League appearances, all in relief. Whether the Nats think he still has something to prove in Harrisburg is the question. He could be in Columbus next month and in Washington by midseason. #ques_include {width:300px;float:right;margin-left:5px;} #ques_content {border-top:1px solid #000000;border-left:1px solid #000000;padding-left:5px;} .ques_schedule {margin-top:5px;font-size:11px;} .ques_dates {font-size:11px;font-style:italic;color:#999;}
Garrett Mock, RHP Still, he shows signs of being an effective starter and has enough stuff, combining a low-90s fastball with a slider and big-time curve, to be effective on the Major League level. He'll probably need some time in Columbus to complete his comeback, but he's definitely someone whom Washington won't hesitate to call up when the need arises.
"He's finally injury-free," Rizzo said. "He had been pitching on a gimpy knee and he's a tough Texan; he wanted to gut through it. He had never missed time before because he was hurt, so he tried to pitch through adversity and it turned out it was affecting his left knee, which is his landing knee. And when you favor your knee, it affects your arm slot, but he's healthy for the first time in two years now. He looks phenomenal and will be an impact starter for us in the very near future."
Ross Detwiler, LHP He sports a solid two- and four-seam fastball, both of which can touch 96 on the gun. His off-speed stuff is equally impressive and he knows how to spot it effectively. While his cameo in the big leagues was a nice touch, it doesn't mean he'll be seeing the Majors again any time soon. The Nats figure to give Detwiler a full season in the Minors before possibly giving him another taste in September. "He's not a polished product by any means, but his ceiling is unlimited," Rizzo said. "He's a lefty who can throw 95-96 with two plus breaking pitches. He just has to learn his craft and he needs to throw strikes more consistently. But he has a tremendous upside and a chance to be a superstar. His stuff is hard to find in the Major Leagues, and you can count on one hand the lefties who throw 93-plus. There are not a whole lot of them.
"When this guy dropped to us, it was an easy decision. These kinds of guys aren't falling off trees. But for him to get to the big leagues and stick long term, he has to make a few improvements just like everyone else. He really has a chance to be an impact guy for us and it's hard to say that about a lot of guys."
Josh Smoker, LHP
Smoker holds the Georgia State record for strikeouts in a season but didn't get to flash too much of that power last year after pitching only four innings for Vermont. The club hasn't been shy about throwing its young pitchers directly into the fray, so don't be surprised if he starts the season in the Sally League rather than extended spring. Smoker was the youngest player in Washington's Major League camp this spring and threw a pair of scoreless innings against Georgetown University in his exhibition debut.
Michael Burgess, OF
Burgess hit 11 homers in 198 at-bats last season between the Gulf Coast and New York-Penn Leagues. He was third in the GCL with eight homers and first in slugging (.617) and OBP (.442). But he also struck out once every 3.3 at-bats, the best indication that he still has some growing up to do at the plate.
Jordan Zimmerman, RHP The Nats grabbed him in the second round last year and he proceeded to go 5-2 for Vermont with a 2.38 ERA (which would have been fourth best in the New York-Penn League had he qualified). He fanned 71, walked only 18 and held the opposition to a .228 batting average in 53 innings. He owns a lead weight of a fastball that hovers consistently in the low 90s. He's mature enough and has some poise on the mound, leaving the impression that he won't have a problem with whatever level of A-ball the Nats put him at. "He's the kind of guy we really pride ourselves on," Rizzo said. "He might turn out to be the best of all of them. He's an upper Midwest kid and I had the honor of scouting that area for 12 years. Here's a kid who came down to Florida and, after a week, breaks his jaw, loses 14 pounds and doesn't really pitch up to his capabilities.
"He goes back up there in anonymity and pitches tremendously and courageously. He has great command of four pitches and I saw him start last year. We got him late in the second round, but if he went to Texas or UCLA or one of those schools, he would have been one of the top eight or 10 picks in the country. I know what Division-III, cold-weather kids go through. He's going to be such a success story."
Justin Maxwell, OF
He strikes out some (once every 3.6 at-bats last year), but what young slugger doesn't create a breeze at least that often? He's got excellent speed and power, and if he continues to cut down on his swing and show patience at the plate, there's no reason Maxwell won't be in Washington at least as a fill-in this season. Under the Radar
Shairon Martis, RHP
Ian Desmond, SS Desmond is solid defensively, but who knows how his bat will react to life in Harrisburg or beyond this season. He hit .182 in his last stint in the Eastern League (121 at-bats in 2006). He's come a long way since the Nats first tried to force feed him in Double-A, but he still has a long way to go, leaving him under the radar.
"He's an outstanding middle-infield prospect," Rizzo said. "He can play shortstop in the Major Leagues and he's really coming into his own swinging the bat." 2007 Draft Recap
SS Jake Smolinski (second round, Boylan Catholic High School, Ill.) hit .305 with 16 RBIs in 105 GCL at-bats. He stole seven bases and drew 13 walks. ... 3B Steven Souza (third round, Cascade High School, Wash.) hit .194 with 46 strikeouts in 144 GCL at-bats. ... RHP Brad Meyers (fifth round, Loyola Marymount) had a 0.30 ERA in 29 2/3 frames in the Gulf Coast and South Atlantic Leagues. He was bumped up to Potomac, where he had a 5.06 ERA in 10 2/3 innings. ... RHP Adrian Alaniz (eighth round, Texas) went 8-2 with a 2.39 ERA in 13 games (eight starts) for Vermont. He fanned 62 and walked eight in 60 1/3 innings, holding the opposition to a .187 average. ... LHP Patrick McCoy (10th round, Sahuaro High School, Ariz.) went 1-2 with a 3.81 ERA in 10 GCL games (five starts). Predictions
Organizational Player of the Year -- Michael Burgess
Cy on the Farm -- Adrian Alaniz
Team to Watch -- Hagerstown Quotable "He showed a lot of what my philosophy was when I was in Arizona in that, when you get a kid in those kinds of rounds, you want to know the history of the kid. And he was the Friday night starter at Texas and went 12-0 there. Stats aren't everything, but that tells you something. Those kinds of things are important, especially down low there. There's a case to be made for those guys in the draft." --Rizzo on Alaniz This story was not subject to the approval of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues or its clubs. |

A recipe from my book Triumph of the Lentil, this is my staple bread recipe. Even with a newborn and a toddler to look after I manage to bake this twice a week, so that we never have to buy bread. Because of the slow rising time it requires very minimal kneading (only enough to mix in the flour), doesn't require any oil or sugar to taste good and stays fresh for longer. The slow rise develops the gluten in the same way that kneading would, but results in a superior taste.
Each rise can take between eight and twenty hours and put in the fridge at any stage, to be baked within two weeks. I like to make each rise around twelve hours. It can also be sped up a little, to make the total time as little as 16 hours by doubling the amount of yeast and combining the first and second rise together.

Long-term Rossport campaigner, Sean Mallory, gives his views on the give away of Irelands natural resources and the recession. While the Irish economy was built on a construction boom and massive inward investment, it seemed to go unnoticed that, by our governments own February 2009 estimate, there is 315b euro worth of oil and gas deposits all along our western seaboard. At the same time, the government tells us that it has no money to pay for cervical cancer tests and the construction of specialised multiple sclerosis units, amongst other vital services. |

Thanks @alfmikula, it saves properly and has even been gemified. I will soon push it to gemcutter and maybe put a homesite on Rubyforge, not sure.
It can be found at http://github.com/Trevoke/SGFParser for now, get the code while it's hot!
Someday I'll come out with a proper revision numbering scheme for it.
I've implemented some
Cucumber testing, the code now actually parses SGF files properly, including the KGS ones, it'll work on Ruby 1.8.6, 1.8.7, 1.9.1, so .. It's all good on that front.
The code's not as clean as I'd like it to be, and probably not as commented, either.
I am not -saving- SGF files with it yet, but heck if I'm not parsing them. And now YOU can, too !
So, I play weiqi (known as the game of go, but I prefer using the chinese name).
There are some SGF parsers out there for Ruby, but I wanted to write my own – the other ones didn't seem comprehensive enough, didn't seem Ruby-like enough in their objectifiying the women data.
My original goal was twofold: write a script to rename all the SGF files in my collection so they can be easily parsed later, and … Learn more Ruby!
Here is the github link: http://github.com/Trevoke/SGFParser
It's a work in progress. Right now it parses the SGF file properly, but the user has a fair amount of work to do to use the data.. Which, maybe, is the way it needs to be. But I'm gonna try to follow the principle of least surprise to the bitter end!
