Shameful scenes at Fenway Park: Red Sox fans disgrace themselves

Fenway Park - 100 year anniversary |
That was absolutely abhorrent. What happened last night in Boston was almost indescribable. Someone, or one group, needs to look at itself in the mirror this morning and seriously question his, her, its actions. We're not talking about Bobby Valentine. Let's get that out of the way straight off the bat. He has been hired to do a job and is doing his best with what fate (and a brutal injury list) has given him. He is 14 games into a 162 game season and we won't really have a measure of his ability in leading the Red Sox until the All Star break.
Bobby Valentine isn't the one who acted shamefully Saturday night.
We're not referring to FOX sports, which gave us its usual blend of overly simplified, bland and crass coverage, seemingly aimed at the under twelves or the over nineties. Whilst Joe Buck's superhuman ability to state the obvious is no doubt impressive, the FOX act is as old and tired as its apparent target audience. I am not advocating turning baseball coverage into an MTV like experience, but, the starchy, out of touch packaging it is currently wrapped in by FOX is pathetic.
For those who were watching, FOX made the decision to switch to the White Sox perfect game, which wouldn't have been a problem had they utilize their split screen coverage that they started with. However, they then focused solely on the White Sox game, meaning both Yankee and Sox fans were stunned when the game at Fenway came back on. Terrible presentation by FOX.
However, it is still not they who should feel ashamed of themselves today.
You would prefer if Red Sox pitchers stopped centering the ball up and living on the middle, the heart, of the plate so often, however even with that in mind, it is not they who behaved in shameful fashion on Saturday night at Fenway Park.
None of those peoples deliberately set out to act in shameful fashion. That dubious distinction belongs solely to the fans of the Boston Red Sox. In their own park. On the back of the 100 years anniversary celebrations. Red Sox fans didn't just boo their team. They rained a hateful deluge of disdain and stupidity down on their own team, their own players, their own manager, with such vitriol that any decent minded individual watching proceedings were shocked to their core.
It was downright nasty.
The booing of players was bad enough, the booing of a brand new manager was simply ignorant. Bobby Valentine is by all accounts a decent man, an experienced baseball skipper, who was excited to be given the chance to lead the Red Sox forward from the collapse of 2011 and Chicken-gate. He deserves a chance,and anyone who knows anything about baseball knows that casting judgement on a team after less than twenty games is not giving it or its manager a chance.

If you disagree with this, if you think that Red Sox fans have a right to display this snarling, ugly face to the baseball watching world, then what of Cubs, Padres and Kansas fans? Should they follow suit, and rain negativity down on their franchise? The Cubs and Padres are off to a similarly poor start with just 4 wins, and Kansas are right now the worst team in the majors with only 3 wins. Yet, their fans are able to behave in a dignified manner at ball games. Their fans seem to understand that the season is very long and reacting over the top at this stage would be something to be ashamed of.
Why do Red Sox fans think it is OK to act stupid when there are plenty of other fan bases that are being patient and waiting to get a better picture of the season before deciding if they are happy with the product their team delivers or not?
Are 4 Red Sox losses worse than 4 Cubs losses? Of course they aren't, but the ridiculous, stupid expectations of some Red Sox fans are a clue to the reason behind why most normal MLB fans are starting to look at Sox fans as the dumbest, the most arrogant and the most self entitled and introverted group of fans in professional sports.
There is nobody to blame but ourselves. Nobody. Don't bother blaming the players. Don't bother blaming the manager or the front office. It us us Red Sox fans ourselves who are bringing ourselves into disrepute.
The actions of what would appear to have been the vast majority of Red Sox 'fans' on Saturday night were completely lacking in class, dignity and or humanity. They created an ugly cess pit of negativity and hate. This abhorrent behavior is lacking in intelligence and thought.
On Sunday I woke up ashamed to be a Boston Red Sox fan. We are, as of today, the worst group of fans of any professional sports team, and we deserve all the ridicule and schadenfreude that is aimed at us over the next week. The shameful behavior at Fenway Park on Saturday night set us Sox fans aside from the often ridiculed Heat fans, the stereotypically angry Yankee fan and even those crazy Raiders fans.
There is simply absolutely no excuse for the torrent of negative abuse that came from the stands.
There is already enough negativity and hatred cursing the planet Earth at the moment. Adding to it just shows a worrying, disappointing lack of thought, intelligence and humanity.
We are Red Sox fans, and right now, we are covered in shame.

wtf Cormac did you write this story because of the bad fan behavior which is nothing new, just the same old news. Or was it because you needed an opening to run down the Fox network?

If anyone at Yankee Stadium threw beer at a child he'd be thrown out. End of story. The security there does not put up with any crap from anyone. Red Sox Nation is full of the most boorish people I know. If you watch a game on TV being played in Boston you can hear Yankees suck.

Unfortunately, Boston Red Sox fans behaving disgracefully is nothing new. My nephew went to a Yankees-Red Sox game when he was eleven years old, with his uncle, who lives in Boston and is a Red Sox fan. My nephew, a Yankees fan and wearing a Yankees shirt, cheered a play, and had beer thrown at him. Not spilled on him, but thrown. A beer thrown at a child.
And it's Yankees, not Yankee. Yankees fans are not angry. We do not chant hatred loud enough to be heard on TV like what is heard in Boston. We know our team and love it.

The sense of entitlement is starting to consume Red Sox Nation, as it has for many years infected Yankee fans. Many of the recent Fenway Faithful have little remembrance of those woeful years when hope and prayer was all they had. Yankee fans are still impacted by this disease demonstrated when they recently they booed Albert the Great possibly because he chose, as the top free agent on the market last year, to got to the Angels. How dare he violate the rule that all the best must go to The Gotham.

On one hand, I can't agree with the Site member who questions the ongoing Bostonian coverage (is there a more Irish based city in the U.S.?). It certainly makes more sense than coverage of that right wing buffoon, O'Reilly, merely because his name starts with an "O'". On the other, I share Mr. Eklof's frustration both with the poor editorial decisions made by FOX Sports (this game was especially egregious!) and the behavior of our gallant rival's "fans." As a lifelong Yankees fan, I'm not cheering about this remarkable game either - it showed the Red Sox bull pen as weak as OUR starting line-up! Neither is a happy situation - but as TRUE Yankees and Red Sox fans know, you always want your greatest rival to be a great team so that when you do beat them it means more. My two favorite ball teams have to be the Yankees and the Mets - but my THIRD favorite will always be Boston! Here's hoping Bobby V. can make them *almost* everything they can be; it's never a fully satisfying World Series win for real Yankees' fans unless we can beat the Red Sox in the *Playoffs* on the way there - and if a New York team can't make it all the way, a Boston team should.

Cormac, Please note that the Royals are the Kansas City Royals. Their stadium is located in Kansas City, Missouri. This may be a sign of another Boston fan's fretful lack of knowledge of the teams and players from any place besides New York and Boston.
I am a life long Minnesota Twins fan that has had to deal with the fact that our excellent competitive and division winning teams of the past decade have been ignored by the national media. Isn't it the East Coast Sports Network? Ken Burns' 10th Inning documentary totally ignored the Twins and the other Central Division teams outstanding performances for the decade of the 2000s. Let us hope that ESPN and Fox do not burden us with another season of 18, four hour long Red Sox/Yankees games. The Twins and the Yankees split four games last week. The Sox are in Mpls. starting on Monday. It will be interesting to see what happens. 2011 was a season for Twins fans in which everybody got hurt and every trade was a mistake. Hopefully we weathered the experience with some semblance of class. Perhaps the Red Sox fans might learn a few things as they suffer through a similar 2012 season. We can still share our common dislike of the Yankees and the best lineup money can buy. A good knowledge and appreciation of all of the major league teams and players help you get through those seasons when your team is not playing well at all. So where did Punto and Repko come from?

I've been having a couple of issues with XBMC & TMDB, and ive no idea really where the issues stem, but its getting to the point where im wondering if its even worth bothering to add content (not that i add much) on there when its so hit & miss getting it to show in XBMC.
Shortly after Xmas i added a few Football ('Sawker') related season reviews, and getting XBMC to detect them was bizarre. Then someone from the XBMC crew mentioned it needs a release date to even acknowledge it (:confused2: but whatever) so i added that, and its still hit n miss. Now today ive come to plug the gaps in the F1 season reviews, and its more of the same, and when it does work its extremely selective in what data it sees. If i search for the 2005 review, it finds it, however it opts not to collect the description & artwork, yet it gets the title and tagline I've basically added my F1 season reviews from 1990-2010, and ive got random titles like The 51st State (iirc US title is Formula 51?), Murder by Numbers, Formula 17, Kapitalism: Our Improved Formula, & Rules - Pyaar Ka Superhit Formula. The TMDB search on the website seems quite capable of a decent search, and yet XBMC seems to make a right dogs dinner of it all, like rather than searching for all the terms provided (eg from 'Formula One 2005 Review') it uses Formula and 2005 and decides well rather than it being the EXACT match of one title, its some random foreign film made in 2005 with Formula in the title. But doing a manual search it wont see anything until i trim it down to 'Formula One' where it shows a handful, not not all titles. It just makes it pointless adding it to the TMDB site if its actually quicker to let XBMC add it as nonsense and then manually edit the information using XWMM and pointing to the artwork i'd upload to TMDB. As i say, no idea where some things are breaking down in the whole process, it could be a mixture, but its very frustraiting. :o I've no idea if its possible to add entries to the IMDB site like you can TMDB, thats what drew me to it tbh, it looks more friendly and built for things like XBMC (as I understand it is) rather than imdb which looks rather strict and covered in red tape and whatnot. |

The reason is XBMC is interpreting "2005" as the year the film was made, and is likely rearranging things in the search or dropping information after the year (which makes sense for 99% of movie names that folk have - but not all!) The debug log will show you what's going on.
If you can find good test cases with matching logs that would be a good starting point to improving things. Always read the XBMC online-manual, FAQ and search the forum before posting.

Yeah, i'd noticed it was using the year in the search and assuming it was the year of release.
The only problem is when: 'Formula One 2005 Review' = 'The Peter Pan Formula (2005)' when 'Formula One 2005 Review (2005)' should be whats found. Its opted to cherry-pick 2 searchable terms, and despite the TMDB having a perfect match, for 4 from 4 terms (and matching year of release too) its going for a 2 from 4 film which is wrong. Thats only when leaving XBMC to search for new content, when refreshing it'll usually come up with the incorrect title and sometimes another equally incorrect title. Doing a manual search doesnt like: 'Formula One 2005 Review.avi' 'Formula One 2005 Review' or 'Formula One 2005' it only brings results at 'Formula One' and that brings a load of F1 reviews and the usual suspects i dont want to be seeing. It was exactly the same issue the other month, when trying to add Manchester United season reviews, i'd have to remove the vast majority of possible search terms for it to find anything remotely relevant, but it'd bring junk back. Why wouldnt 'Formula One 2005' work? It should be able to use the year for either title or release and bring at least 1 result, but it doesnt like it, and for the life of me i dont see why. Log: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20670693/xbmc/xbmc_tmdb1.log I closed XBMC down, loaded it up and left it to sit for 5min, and then went to update/refresh the 2000 season review, filename also a perfect match for the TMDB title (+ '.avi' extension) and after dumbing it down to get all F1 reviews, i picked the 2000 version and let it go to work. It didnt change anything, still missing poster, background, and description. http://www.themoviedb.org/movie/90580-fo...000-review There are errors in the log from it, most notably: 20:41:50 T:7544 ERROR: WebServer: Failed to open special://masterprofile/Thumbnails/Video/Fanart/89cc9bf4.tbn There is no file of that name, but im not 100% sure what that would be if it existed, and if it was related to the F1 review then i'd equally expect it to fail to open the poster too cos neither exist.

Nice Quality, but lower cut than I thought
Overall, I am happy with this purchase. I wear this top a lot but mostly under other things. I bought it in white so it's the perfect top for a colorful skirt and under a jean jacket but it did come a bit lower cut than I thought it would be. (Look at the model picture in the black) Sometimes, if I need to wear it alone, I will wear another layer under it but it's great quality and stands up to washing well. It was also a little larger than I would have anticipated, it's shaped but in a relaxed, loose sort of way.

Love the Indio Line
I started with the Indio cami's, which I love. Then moved to the Indio scoop neck, short sleeve which is just as lovely. Not tight fit...but just the right relax fit. I have multiple colors in both styles. Highly recommend.

Facebook aims to get more people onlineBy BARBARA ORTUTAY
The Associated Press | August 22,2013AP Photo
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg wants to get more of the worlds more than 7 billion people online through a partnership with some of the worlds largest mobile technology companies.NEW YORK Facebook wants to get more of the worlds more than 7 billion people all of them, actually online through a partnership with some of the worlds largest mobile technology companies.
Facebook Inc. announced a partnership called Internet.org on Wednesday. In addition to the worlds biggest online social network, the group also includes Korean electronics giant Samsung, Finnish handset maker Nokia and wireless chip maker Qualcomm Inc.
Facebook said the groups goal is to make Internet access available to the two-thirds of the world who are not yet connected about 5 billion people.
The groups plans include developing cheaper smartphones and tools that would reduce the amount of data required to run apps. For Facebook, the move would certainly add more users to its current 1.15 billion, but CEO Mark Zuckerberg paints it as something bigger.
For nine years, weve been on a mission to connect the world. We now connect more than 1 billion people, but to connect the next 5 billion we must solve a much bigger problem: the vast majority of people dont have access to the Internet, Zuckerberg wrote on his Facebook page along with a paper titled Is Connectivity A Human Right?
He points out that the people who already use Facebook have way more money than the rest of the world combined. That means it may not actually be pro?table for us to serve the next few billion people for a very long time, if ever. But we believe everyone deserves to be connected.
Javier Olivan, vice president of growth and analytics at Facebook, said the move continues what the company has already been doing to get more people online. This includes Facebook For Every Phone, an app that launched in 2011 to let people with simple, nonsmartphones use Facebook.
Wireless equipment company Ericsson, Web browser developer Opera Software and MediaTek, another wireless semiconductor company, are also founding members of Internet.org.
Google Inc., which is not a part of the Internet.org effort, launched a similar undertaking earlier this year with the goal of getting everyone on Earth online. Called Project Loon, the project launched Internet-beaming antennas abroad giant helium balloons into the stratosphere.MORE IN National / World BusinessNEW YORK Many Americans are watching the annual holiday spending ritual from the sidelines this...

Loss of taste and smell: Natural with aging?
By Mayo Clinic staffOriginal Article: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/loss-of-taste-and-smell/AN01198
- With Mayo Clinic geriatrician
Paul Y. Takahashi, M.D.

Paul Y. Takahashi, M.D.
Paul Y. Takahashi, M.D.
"The Internet will impact the lives of all patients young and old. Older and mature patients are no exception to this information explosion." — Dr. Takahashi
Dr. Paul Yoshio Takahashi works with elderly patients as a member of the geriatric consultative group at Mayo Clinic. He works in all medical settings, including the outpatient clinic, the nursing home and occasionally the patient's home. He is especially interested in strategies for successful aging, preventing elder abuse and mistreatment, home telemonitoring, frailty, and cognitive screening in elderly patients.
Dr. Takahashi is a consultant in the Division of Primary Care Internal Medicine at Mayo Clinic. He is an associate professor of medicine at College of Medicine, Mayo Clinic, and a fellow of the American College of Physicians. He had a fellowship in geriatric medicine at Mayo Graduate School of Medicine from 1997 to 1998.
Dr. Takahashi cares for all of a patient's acute needs and chronic problems and focuses on specialty issues such as memory problems, safety in the home, healthy aging, proper medications and end-of-life concerns.
He sees the Internet playing a growing role in the health information field.
"Patients and their families want and expect the most up-to-date information about life, health, disease and death. Healthy aging as a concept has grown quickly over the last 20 years as we have all lived longer and hopefully better," he says. "I expect that Mayo Clinic will be a significant part of this growing movement of a healthy maturity."
Dr. Takahashi, a native of Pittsfield, Ill., joined Mayo Clinic in 1998 and is board certified in internal medicine with added qualification in geriatric medicine. He is a fellow of the American Geriatrics Society.

Loss of taste and smell: Natural with aging?
Is loss of taste and smell normal with aging — or could loss of taste and smell have other causes?
from Paul Y. Takahashi, M.D.
Some loss of taste and smell is natural with aging, especially after age 60. Various other factors also can contribute to loss of taste and smell, however, including:
- Nasal and sinus problems, such as allergies, sinusitis or nasal polyps
- Certain medications, including beta blockers and angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors
- Tooth decay or poor dental hygiene
- Cigarette smoking
- Head or facial injury
- Alzheimer's disease
- Parkinson's disease
Loss of taste and smell can have a significant impact on quality of life, often leading to decreased appetite and poor nutrition. Sometimes loss of taste and smell contributes to depression. Loss of taste and smell also might tempt you to use excess salt or sugar on your food to enhance the taste — which could be a problem if you have high blood pressure or diabetes.
If you're experiencing loss of taste and smell, consult your doctor. Although you can't reverse age-related loss of taste and smell, some causes of impaired taste and smell are treatable. For example, your doctor might adjust your medications if they're contributing to the problem. Many nasal and sinus conditions can be treated with medication or outpatient procedures. Likewise, dental problems are often treatable as well. If you smoke, quitting can help restore your sense of taste and smell.
If necessary, your doctor might recommend consulting an allergist, otolaryngologist, neurologist or other specialist.

Moises Alou went two for three with a solo homerun in his rehab start. Stefan Welch went two for four with two doubles and an RBI.

BY JACK SHORT - The Gasparilla Island Conservation and Improvement Association presented photographer Dan Cox and scientist Dr. Steven Amstrup on Saturday, March 16 at the Boca Grande Community Center. They offered a glimpse into the lives and environment of the polar bear via award-winning photography, as well as data collected from Dr. Amstrup's research.
Both men worked with Polar Bears International, a research organization formed in 2002 from a similar group, Polar Bears Alive, which was founded in 1992.
Cox has had two National Geographic cover stories and numerous awards for his photography including the North American Nature Photography Association's Outstanding Photographer of the Year recognition. He is also listed by Nikon as a "Nikon Legend."
His photographs, part of the ongoing Arctic Documentary Project, which has occupied Cox for the last few years, feature images of arctic environments and their inhabitants in places such as Spitsbergen, a small town 400 miles north of Norway and 600 miles from the North Pole, and the Hudson bay region south of Churchill, Manitoba.
Cox documented some of the less glamorous work of sedating, capturing and collecting data from individual polar bears. Blood, tissue and hair samples are taken from the bears, and other various measurements to determine how changes in climate and arctic sea ice are affecting them.
Time spent hundreds of miles from civilization, braving temperatures as low as 45 degrees below zero and close to beautiful but unpredictable wildlife led Cox, Dr. Steven Amstrup, and their fellow researchers to one central conclusion. Amstrup said, "That is that polar bears have essentially a complete dependence on sea ice."
Amstrup, the recipient of the 2012 Indianapolis prize and the 2012 BAMBI award – both prestigious conservation awards, led research that became the basis for the decision by the secretary of the interior to list polar bears as a threatened species in 2007. Amstrup is the lead scientist for PBI.

Love this! Made quite the impression out of the box with balloons tied onto the handles for a baby shower! Everyone oohh'd and ahh'd! This is my 2nd Rockabye - same item - the Lulu Ladybug. Both of my nieces are having little girls. THis rocker will be great for pictures from infant til she outgrows it. And there is a seat for an infant that other Rockaby's don't have.
by Sandra Boehm | Date Added: Monday 05 August, 2013 |
This is positively adorable! The fabric is so soft and is removeable for washing! I am giving it to my niece for her baby shower and I know she will love it. I'm not going to wrap it - I'm just putting shower baloons on the handle! Way too cute to wrap. I know she will love it! The new Mom-to-be is a photographer and I know she will be taking tons of pictures with the baby on this Ladybug.

I purchased two of these rockers (the ladybug and the turtle) for friends who have children turning 1 soon. Both items arrived well packaged and in working order. They look adorable!Oh and the outer cover (i.e., the ladybug cover) is removable and can be machine-washed.

This product is put together nothing need to be done. Take out of box and place child in seat. I suggest a seat strap for safety. Thay is the only down part of this product.
by J. Newingham | Date Added: Thursday 24 February, 2011 |
My daughter received Lulu the Ladybug for her 1st birthday. Many reviews I've read about this product state that the rocker is too small for the retailer's recommended age group, but it's the perfect size for a 1 year old. The seat is nice and cushy, and supportive - and she fits snugly into the seat, so I don't worry about her falling off even if she isn't holding on. By the second time we put her on the rocker, she had figured out how to rock it herself, and she really loves it! The only somewhat negative remark I could make is that the songs are somewhat high-pitched and annoying for grown up ears - but on the flip side, my daughter loves them so much that I wish they played for more than a few seconds since she gets upset when they stop. My daughter also loves the fact that when she kicks the lady bug feet, they rattle and make noise. She rocks and rocks, kicking her feet and laughing the whole time. Overall, this is a wonderful first rocker! It's too bad she will probably outgrow it by her 2nd birthday!
by Amy Bezzerides | Date Added: Thursday 06 January, 2011 |
My 9 month old daughter received this for Christmas. She loves it! She can't really rock herself yet, but she sure tries to when the songs are playing. I'd recommend it!

Thank you to all who responded with your thoughts on prioritztion for the next Neighborhood Street Fund projects. After compiling the votes, the projects stacked up as follows:
#1 priority |
5. Improve pedestrian crossing at intersections in business district along California Ave. |
#2 (tie) |
2. Develop landscaped entryway in existing triangles on either side of Fauntleroy Way SW at Juneau. |
#2 (tie) |
4. Improve California Ave SW streetscape with installation of landscaping and street trees. |
#2 (tie) |
7. Pedestrian improvements to East-west streets including SW Graham, SW Morgan, and SW Holden. |
#3 (tie) |
1. Reconfigure and channel Fauntleroy Way intersections, landscape unused street ROW and islands at 40th and Juneau/39th Ave SW, 45th /Holly Pl., Lincoln Park Dr. |
#3 (tie) |
8. Install traffic calming/control devices on SW Holly, 48th Ave, Frontenac & Myrtle, 38th Ave SW, Juneau, or 42nd Ave SW. |
#3 (tie) |
6. Improve pedestrian crossing at signalized cross-streets and bus stops along 35th Ave sw. |
#4 priority |
3. Develop green spaces at SW Holly intersection with Fauntleroy and 45th |
Because no one is sure of what the effect of the Fauntleroy Way restriping project will be, as it also includes pedestrian crossing improvements, we set project items 1 and 2 on hold for this year, until we can make improvement plans that incorporate upcoming changes. And for item 8, it was limited to only the 48th Ave SW location, as there is a volunteer effort under discussion at that location. We were not sure where the other locations were regarding support from nearby neighbors, so we can gather that information during the upcoming year. Final result was that project proposal sheets were sent in for items 5, 4, 7 and 8. Copies of the proposal sheets are linked below.

Voters in California accustomed to casting ballots in party primaries will see something very different on Tuesday: all candidates, regardless of affiliation, will compete in the same preliminary contest, with the top two finishers moving on to compete in the general election.
California is one of five states holding primaries Tuesday. Others include an intra-party fight in New Jersey that pits President Barack Obama against former President Bill Clinton and a fight for the U.S. Senate seat in New Mexico vacated by retiring Sen. Jeff Bingaman. Residents of two other states -- Montana and South Dakota -- will also vote Tuesday.
California's so-called "top two primary" is intended to stem political gridlock caused by elected officials at their parties' extremes. Similar measures are in place in Louisiana and Washington, but as the country's most populous state, California's ballot shakeup could mean big changes to state and national politics.
Voters in the Golden State approved "top two" primaries in a ballot initiative in 2010, a year after the state's legislature passed a measure instituting the new practice. In a bargaining move designed to break gridlock in the legislature, then-Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger backed the nonpartisan primary measure, joining an effort that also included Willie Brown, the Democratic former mayor of San Francisco.
Eric McGhee, a policy fellow at the Public Policy Institute of California, said in the past similar reforms have not had a major impact on the political discourse.
"If you look at the impact that these reforms have had in other states, they haven't been very large," McGhee said. "California is about the only state where something of this kind has elected more moderates in the past."
California held "blanket primaries" in 1998 and 2000, in which all registered voters could cast ballots, regardless of party affiliation. The United States Supreme Court struck down the practice, saying it violated political parties' First Amendment right of association.
McGhee said California's previous history with open primaries leads him to believe "a few more moderates" will be elected in California this time around.
There are two Congressional races in California in which incumbents will be pitted against each other Tuesday, though the state's new system would make it possible for all to advance to November's general election.
Redistricting following the 2010 Census led to a matchup between Democratic Reps. Janice Hahn and Laura Richardson in the state's 44th Congressional District outside of Los Angeles. In the San Fernando Valley, Reps. Brad Sherman and Howard Berman are facing off in the 30th Congressional District.
Sherman and Berman are each long-serving members of the House -- Sherman has been in office for eight terms, while Berman is completing his 15th term on Capitol Hill. Both were re-elected in 2010 with large majorities, and both serve on the House Foreign Affairs Committee.
Given each man's longevity in office, it's considered likely that they will both garner enough votes in Tuesday's primary to move on to the general election. But in both the Berman-Sherman race and the Hahn-Richardson race, McGhee said it wasn't clear how the new "top two" primary would impact the bitter partisanship the measure was meant to combat.
"In neither one of the races is it entirely clear which candidate is more moderate and which one is more liberal," McGhee said.
New Jersey
In New Jersey, a political fight between two incumbent Democrats is turning into a battle of the surrogates: former President Bill Clinton has endorsed Rep. Bill Pascrell, while President Barack Obama has shown tacit support for Rep. Steve Rothman.
Rothman and Pascrell are both eight-term congressmen who won re-election in 2010 with more than 60% of the vote. The two men are fighting for the same northern New Jersey seat this year after redrawn congressional lines placed Rothman's hometown into a conservative district. Instead of challenging Republican Rep. Scott Garrett, Rothman moved to Englewood, where he once served as mayor, to run against Pascrell.
Obama, whom Rothman backed in 2008, met with the candidate at the White House on Friday. Photos showed the two politicians walking along the White House colonnade, though their meeting was private.
In a press release, Rothman's campaign said Obama "affirmed his support" for the candidate at the get-together, characterizing the move as a show of appreciation for Rothman's backing in 2008.
"President Obama asked me to come to the Oval Office today so that everyone will know that he supports me and wants me to help him with his agenda in his second term, as I have in his first," Rothman wrote in a statement.
But Josh Earnest, the White House deputy press secretary, was careful Friday not to label the meeting as a show of endorsement.
"It means that the president has a longstanding relationship with Congressman Rothman, is appreciative of the solid working relationship that they've enjoyed while the president has been in office. It's indicative of the priorities that they share," Earnest told reporters aboard Air Force One.
Earnest noted the president had not weighed in on Democratic primary contests between two incumbent members of Congress.
Pascrell, a Hillary Clinton supporter in 2008, appeared alongside Bill Clinton at a campaign rally in Paterson on Friday. Clinton told supporters he was offering his endorsement because of his success working with Pascrell in the past, including during his time as president.
Both Pascrell and Rothman were elected in 1996, the same year Clinton was elected to a second term in the White House. The two men have similar, reasonably left-of-center voting records in Congress -- in the campaign, Rothman has attempted to paint himself as the more progressive candidate, while Pascrell stumps as a pragmatic moderate.

Oct. 5, 2012 The increase in anal cancer incidence in the U.S. between 1980 and 2005 was greatly influenced by HIV infections in males, but not females, according to a study published October 5 in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.
Anal cancer in the U.S. is rare, with an estimated 6,230 cases in 2012, but incidence has been steadily increasing in the general population since 1940. HIV infection is significantly associated with an increase in anal cancer risk, and anal cancer is the fourth most common cancer found in HIV-infected people. However, it has been unclear the degree to which anal cancer cases occurring among people with HIV has affected anal cancer incidence in the general population.
In order to determine the impact of HIV on anal cancer incidence in the U.S., Meredith S. Shiels, Ph.D., M.H.S., of the National Cancer Institute and colleagues looked at data from the HIV/AIDS Cancer Match Study -- specifically the number of people with anal cancer with and without HIV between 1980 and 2005 in 17 U.S. states and metropolitan areas.
The researchers found that of the 20,533 anal cancer cases between 1980 and 2005, an estimated 1,665 individuals were infected with HIV. In 2001-2005, the most recent time period examined, 1.2% of women with anal cancer and 28.4% of men with anal cancer were HIV-positive. During 1980-2005, HIV infection did not have an impact on the increasing anal cancer incidence rates among women, but HIV had a strong impact on the increasing anal cancer incidence rates among men. "A large proportion of U.S. males with anal cancer in recent years were HIV-infected," the authors write, adding that, "Measures that would effectively prevent anal cancer in HIV-infected males could markedly reduce anal cancer rates at the population level."

Through the Seasons with Madeline Novlotzky
April 22 - May 31, 2002
Lowenfeld Exhibition Hall, 10th floor, Axinn Library
Madeline Novlotzky (1908-1992) first began studying art at the Moore Institute and the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts in the 1930s. She then studied and painted in Europe after winning a traveling fellowship. Upon her return, she continued her studies and taught children's art classes at the Brooklyn Museum. Ms. Novlotzky then worked as a drafter and model-maker. She and her husband, Hyman, moved to Albany in the 1950s where she taught children's art classes for 20 years. It was in the natural beauty of the Hudson Valley area that she found much inspiration. Ms. Novlotzky received numerous awards and her works were exhibited in solo and group shows.
Ms. Novlotzky's paintings span a period of more than 60 years. Her love of nature was evident in most every work, as was her love of color. Ms. Novlotzky's artistic statement best sums up her philosophy - 'To express in terms of color, form, space, texture, line, my interaction with my environment.'

The first time I heard Manu Dibango's "Soul Makossa" was courtesy of Motorcycle Guy, a prominent Brooklyn eccentric who drives around on a tricked-out motorcycle bedecked with lights and equipped with a powerful sound system. I encounter him every so often and he's always bumping some good funk, soul or R&B. One night, he was […]

If you listen to Republicans, Florida Rep. Keith Fitzgerald was able to get elected the District 69 representative because of a favorable climate for Democrats in the past two elections.
Surprisingly, Fitzgerald agrees.
"I probably had the wind at my back," he said.
And, when Republicans attribute his two victories to a more moderate district, as opposed to the more traditional GOP stronghold across the rest of Sarasota County, Fitzgerald, again, says there's something to that argument.
That honesty is what he believes delivers him some moderate Republican votes.
"I'm a pragmatic person," said Fitzgerald. "I don't look at issues as an ideological scorecard. I judge bills on their merit."
Make no mistake, Republicans make up a majority of District 69: 37,293 Republicans to 31,373 Democrats.
But the GOP has had a tough time coming up with a candidate to defeat the Democrat. In 2006, Fitzgerald defeated Laura Benson 51% to 49%, and in 2008, he once again defeated Benson, but widened the gap to 51% to 46%.
Fitzgerald is hoping the same moderate Republicans who helped propel him to those victories give him his third term come Election Day in November.
Joe Gruters, chairman of the Republican Party of Sarasota County, believes dissatisfaction with Democrats, in Washington, will play a big part in the next election and make Fitzgerald beatable.
"I think Keith was able to capitalize on a bad year for Republicans," said Gruters. "The climate has changed, and Fitzgerald is going to lose this year."
Rita Ferrandino, chairwoman of the Democratic Party of Sarasota County, believes Fitzgerald's track record will carry him to victory again.
"I think the reason he has won is that he's thoughtful and careful in his decision making," she said. "He's earned the respect of both sides of the aisle in Tallahassee."
Will his opponent this year, former County Commissioner Ray Pilon, be able to capitalize on the national discontent with Democrats? That remains to be seen, but Fitzgerald seems confident in his position.
"Any election with an incumbent is a referendum on that incumbent," he said. "I'm comfortable with my track record."

-- meanwhile stocks ending the week at a new five year high but are investors regular investors people like you and me.
Missing out on the bull market.
The -- -- has risen impressively over the past few years since March 2009 but my next guest says.
It hasn't gotten a lot of respect more investor dollars here to explain Jonathan Hoenig.
Manager for the capitalist -- hedge fund Kevin thanks for coming -- you know -- finally.
On the street right now and spoke to five or six people they tell me that the stock market was in the dumps.
But yeah.
I mean it's amazing -- and -- given that given the last couple of years.
You'd expect that there's been a tremendous spate of bad news Gary as you know we've covered -- all here on Fox Business even more recently all the her wringing over the fiscal cliff.
Has made a lot of investors quite simply scared of -- right and -- not just what they.
Said that's -- what they've done investors actually been taking money out of stocks for the better part of the last seven years currently that's not a good idea right now.
Well it's dangerous -- especially since acts as an asset class are so strong JPMorgan.
EBay 3 AM Kellogg all these big cat names.
At new 52 week highs this week that the bullish sign but still a lot of investors are kind of once burned twice shy mentality in they've been buying bonds -- I -- your big cap that financial pics here but.
Oh wait I mean this this stock has gotten hammered on this news are gonna fix this problem will be back when you buy Boeing now that it's down.
I think that's the reason for my -- -- why you don't buy it I mean how we fit stock -- like sushi yet you don't want to bargain.
And that would and it kind of so many are actually strong -- Transports at 52 week highs -- all time highs he mid caps that highs you don't wanna by the laggards so Boeing apple the weaker stocks that no.
And -- -- not gonna buy apple.
Well listen if if any of our viewers only large cap mutual fund -- own apple have -- seeing much better opportunities not and he's well known names and again I think the biggest risk right now.
Is in bonds -- -- interest rates at today's investors have never seen interest rates rise but they're poised to do just that and I think that's going to be the big story 23 -- So you've got a couple of big -- big cap financials and -- JPMorgan Goldman Sachs -- -- like them now it has some.
Really great earnings but can -- continue.
-- well I think in a big banks as at this sector are extremely strong and you know.
Just like -- life just like the season's -- each tens of trends tend to persist in the marketplace a lot of people look at.
A -- like JPMorgan are got a stock like eBay or three Yemeni say it's so high I can't buy it now in fact that's the best indicated -- that trend will persist.
It's a little -- -- -- critical yeah about apple not too long ago the my friend now how do you make the distinction.
Apple how do you make a decision I think you do it in terms of your technique Jerry were most people strangle themselves in the market isn't.
Is that they pick a bad stock but they make investment and all -- -- decision so look I'm bullish on stocks I don't think on Tuesday morning you go in and and gold -- by everything I think you have to have a strategic approach but as an asset class right now you can't and I that stocks are strong -- -- Investors should be.
Where it I think even after he -- another eBay another one analyst or even and other analysts think.
These are names not only that everyone knows -- Poland's.
But that they really have actually avoided I think.
And that's -- gets a heartbreaking is that investors haven't scared.
I think they look at what's going on and a Washington they feel that there's been systemic risk and they said.
I can't take a risk in stocks will affect.
That's exactly what's in the best performing asset class and I think that's -- they -- the only way it profit my friend is to take a little bitterest Jonathan thanks for pentagon today.
Thanks for take -- brilliant start it with us we appreciate it -- weekend.

Faculty Accomplishments
Beoku-Betts arrived at FAU in 1997 and appointed director of the CWGSS in 2008. Faced with a budget crisis in 2009 that would adversely affect the Center, Beoku-Betts formed an Advisory Council and a Friends of Women's Studies group to actively engage in fundraising. She also organized a Women's Leadership Forum in conjunction with the President's Diversity Committee which has since become an annual event. The Forum's theme for next year is "Women in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM)" and will be held on Friday, March 15, 2013.
Beoku-Betts is a 2004 recipient of the Rockefeller Foundation Bellagio Resident Scholar Program and the 2012 recipient of the President's Leadership Award at FAU. The importance of her scholarship and depth of her international reputation as a leading researcher and advocate for women is confirmed by her reception of the 2011-2012 Fulbright Scholars Award to conduct teaching and research in Sierra Leone where she participated in several women's movements and civil society programs during her stay.
The Florida Commission on the Status of Women is a nonpartisan board, statutorily created in 1991 consisting of 22 appointed members, administratively housed in the Office of the Attorney General. The Commission is dedicated to empowering women in achieving their fullest potential, to eliminating barriers to that achievement, and to recognizing women's accomplishments.
The CWGSS is a strong interdisciplinary program with nationally and internationally known faculty from a variety of disciplines. The program prepares students to think critically about the political, social, economic, and historical forces that shape women's lives, along with women's responses through activism and advocacy.

Hi hi!
This will be a review entry of two Gorgeous cosmetics items. There are a ton of stuff which I need to sit down and do a proper review of... but it is always exciting to find something I like, and have been constantly using, and excited to share! I have really enjoyed using both, for over the past 2 weeks. The eyeshadow palette, makes me want to slap on some eye colors every morning, because they are a dream to use.
Gorgeous Cosmetics are exclusively available at Zalora.Sg [Link link link] in case you aren't aware. I have previously featured Zalora.Sg in this entry here.
For my swatches and introduction to Gorgeous Cosmetics, click HERE
Firstly, we have the Gorgeous Base Perfect Liquid Foundation. I got mine in the lightest neutral shade 1N.
It has a rather light texture. It feels velvety powdery texture. It looks rather dark at the back of my hand and even on my face, as you will see in the application step by step later. But it settles and blends perfectly into my skintone.
Here's what I LOVE, yes LOVE about the foundation:
- The fresh slightly citrus-y scent. Feels great when I am blending out the foundation, and catch a whiff of the scent. But it doesn't linger on, and didn't cause any irritation to my skin.
- It blends very quickly, and I usually use a buffing brush to work the foundation into my skin. It doesn't dry too quickly so I can take my time to buff and blend the foundation.
- The coverage is light to medium, and I doubt you can build it up to a full coverage without streaks and patches. I usually set my foundation with the usual Chanel loose powder, or the La Mer loose powder.
- The finish is a satin smooth texture, which is one of my favourite features of this foundation. It just makes me look like I have very smooth skin, and my pores look significantly soothed out.
- I like the consistency. It is not the flowy liquidy type but rather a rather creamy texture. I usually pump out one and a half glob of foundation out.
- It is very long-lasting, on a work day, where I sweat, and go in and out of the air-conditioned office and out into the hot humid afternoons. I can say that I still look fresh after a long day (yes, of course, I had to dab and blot my face but after that, my skin looks good as new).
- I still need to blot my oily t-zone every few hours. But I definitely don't look oily at all when I wear this foundation.
- It did not oxidise on me, which is another plus.
I really don't have anything bad to say about this foundation. Except perhaps that initially, I wasn't too used to the pump dispenser, and I either got too much product out, or I have to make a few 'false' pumps before anything comes out. Other than that, the product itself is of superior quality, and I really enjoy using it for a variety of occasions, and with great results. I really recommend this foundation to those with oily complexion, and also those who want a great everyday skin perfecting foundation.
applying the foundation
after blending, and before any concealer
Next, we have the eyeshadow palette. To be honest, I have only constantly been using the two lightest shades in the quad. I just slap on these two colors on my lids on a daily basis, over an eyeshadow primer. And I love the lightest peachy brown shade.
What is so impressive about this quad, or at least the two colors that I have been using, is that they are a dream to apply. There is no fallout, and the eyeshadows just blend themselves out, so smoothly, and the colors is so rich, and intense.
you can see the amazing texture and payoff in this picture
and my step by step everyday look
I just use the same MAC217 brush to pick up the eyeshadows and blend them onto my lids.
I use abit of the darker brown to give some definition to the outer corners of the eyes.
but for an actual LOTD, I lined my eyes and put on falsies.
I did not use any browbone highlight shade at all.
The eyeshadows are equally long-lasting, and there is no fading and no creasing of colors.
This palette is a very flattering and wearable one for me.
I shall attempt to do a darker smokier look using the black eyeshadow in a future LOTD, hopefully!
I haven't gotten to use the liquid eyeliner, but if I do, I will mention my thoughts in subsequent entries.
On my lips, I am wearing MAC MarquiseD' lipstick, and on my cheeks, I am using Guerlain Blush G and MUFE Mat Bronze.
Eyeliner used is Solone Black.
Overall, these two products I got to try out did not disappoint me at all. I truly enjoyed using them, and if you are intrigued, head on over to Zalora.Sg to check out the rest of the range (pssss... their blushes are very lovely too!)
That's all, and thank you for reading!
p/s Gorgeous Cosmetics featured here were given to me for consideration.

Modern Desks: Find the right one for you.
A few things to consider while shopping for modern desks:
Desktop Size. Modern desks come in a range of desktop sizes. Estimate how much desktop space you need by taking note of everything you want on your desk, for example, a computer, printer, task lighting or picture of your favorite pet.
Desk Height. Modern desks come in a variety of heights. Determine the right height for you by sitting in your computer chair and measuring the distance from the floor to the top of your thighs. This is the minimum amount of space you'll want under the desk.
Storage. Do you need to store things in your desk, such as office supplies or books? Many modern desks come with built-in storage or have coordinating pieces, such as filing cabinets and shelves.
Cable Management. Most modern desks have computers and other electronics on them. If this is the case for yours, look for modern desks that allow for easy flow of the wiring.
