The Best of Welsh Design Awards - submissions now open
Submissions are now open for the Best of Welsh Design Awards and the organisers, the Cardiff Design Festival, are delighted to announce that this year's sponsors are Comisiwn Dylunio Cymru/Design Commission for Wales.
The Awards are open to professionals and new graduates working in every design discipline, from urban and landscape design and architecture, to branding, interactive and graphics, furniture, product and fashion, design thinking and social design. They celebrate the wealth of talented designers and design-thinkers in the city and across Wales and help ensure that their skills and passion are recognised.
'The beauty of the Best of Welsh Design Awards 2012 is that it doesn't have to be about buildings or contract values or big projects', explained the Chief Executive of Comisiwn Dylunio Cymru/Design Commission for Wales, Carole-Anne Davies. 'It can be about your creative thinking, about ideas and approaches that stimulate the imagination, make us think and whet the national appetite for great design. Good design matters to Wales and in the places where we live, learn, heal and have fun - it matters a great deal. '
The Awards are open to professionals working in Wales or from Welsh based clients and to graduates from Wales or from Welsh based courses. Work completed for a paying client should be entered as professional. Entries can also be sent in by delighted clients.
The Awards are part of the Cardiff Design Festival which kicks off on 28 September 2012 and runs for two full weeks of events, exhibitions, talks, challenges, happenings and socials highlighting the wealth of design talent that can be found, not just in the city of Cardiff but across the whole of Wales.
Now in their seventh year the Awards have become a key part of the Festival and this year's judging panel is the most exciting ever. Consisting of design leaders and past winners the judges include Richard Seymour, from world renowned design agency SeymourPowell, Glenn Tutssel of The Brand Union, Carole-Anne Davies of the Design Commission for Wales and Mike Cleague, BAFTA award winner and owner of the Cardiff based, digital interactive agency, Carbon Studio.
The Festival Director, Olwen Moseley said, "Design permeates every aspect of our lives from the way our breakfast is packaged to the design of the beds we sleep in. The emphasis for the awards is on results - not just what looks great but on what impact has been made. They are a showcase of the greatest innovations Wales has to offer, so the more entrants we get the better! The Festival itself always has new partners joining in, each bringing new ideas and themes that give the Festival a distinctive and fresh flavour everytime."
For details on how to enter or for more information about the Festival and events visit www.cardiffdesignfestival.org. The deadline for submissions is midnight on 17 August 2012.

Making his way out of a polling station here Tuesday, former South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford said just being able to cast a vote for himself again amounted to a "real blessing on a variety of levels."
Sanford, along with more than a dozen other Republicans, is vying for a spot on the ballot in the Palmetto State's special election to fill the U.S. House seat vacated by now-Sen. Tim Scott. A primary vote is being held Tuesday.
Sanford became a household name in 2009 after he used a story about a hiking trip on the Appalachian Trail to explain his prolonged absence from public life. He later revealed that explanation was false, and that he was actually carrying on an extramarital affair in Argentina. Now divorced, Sanford is engaged to the woman he met in South America.
His bid to become the Republican candidate in the race for the open House seat makes his first venture back into public life since the affair. On Tuesday, he said he wasn't sure how the primary election would turn out, but that "casting the vote wasn't that hard, it was like riding a bike."
"Just the process of getting back up and trying as hard as you can to talk about ideas you've long believed and have the chance to go in and vote is a real blessing on a variety of different levels," Sanford continued.
He added that he believes "life is a series of course corrections. Some days you get right and you surprise yourself on how right you get them. Other days you disappoint yourself and a lot of others."
Other candidates on the ballot Tuesday include fellow Republican Teddy Turner, the son of CNN founder Ted Turner, and Elizabeth Colbert Busch, a Democrat who's the sister of comedian Stephen Colbert.

Mica targets next generation shoppers with new look website
The Mica co-operative group has just gone live with brand new upgrade, featuring additional supplier resources alongside a contemporary new look for consumers.The new look website is currently live, and Mica says there is more to come
A dynamic store-finder is one of the key features of the new site, improving marketing opportunities for Mica members. Users can now search for their nearest Mica store using a map tool, as well as being able to search for their local store by name and town and follow links to the member's website.
Mica ceo Steve Ball told DIY Week: "We're a marketing organisation first and foremost. And we know we offer the best, most varied and exciting consumer leaflets in the marketplace, but we wanted to replicate this in our online image.
"Given the arrival of the truly digital age with consumers searching for products and information online, it is important to get the next generation of shoppers into our independent retailers."
Mica claims its new site goes beyond simply being a portal to pass on details of local stores to consumers. "We're making it clear for any new user who is unfamiliar with Mica that we are not a chain store," added Mr Ball. "We're a co-operative group of independent retailers, working together for the benefit of each other and our consumers.
"That's crucial to our image and something other groups miss, the value of remaining and being perceived as truly independent - and it's the first thing you see when you come onto our site."
The site isn't just for consumers; members have access to up-to-the minute supplier information, including a supplier book tool, as well as downloadable files including PoS material, logos, special offers and price lists. Members can also interact in a forum as well as download brochure PDFs and retail support tools.
Each Mica store has an individual page complete with Google map, store image, space for detailed information on their departments and services, address and contact details, opening hours and more. These can now all be fully controlled by the member who has the ability to update anything at their own convenience.
"We're a membership organisation, owned by and run for our members," added Mr Ball. "It's right that they should have control over their online presence."
Mica is currently working with its suppliers to bring consumer hints and tips to life using real life product examples and simple DIY tips geared towards the non-expert. The online brochure is set to upgrade shortly to become viewable as a 'page turning' device for consumers to browse.

The seedy, pscyho characters from author Joel Houssin's popular 1980s series of hip French crime novels come to vivid life in this rip roaring actioner. The directorial debut of French/Dutch video maker Jan Kounen, the film presents a super violent, drug ladened world ruled by ultramacho men and supported by long-legged, wild-haired, gun-toting beauties. Dobermann (Vincent Cassel) is the leader of a large criminal gang. His lover is Nat la Gitane (Monica Belucci), a deaf-mute gypsy girl. The story begins as Dobermann and company boldly pull off a blood-soaked bank robbery in broad daylight. Their confidence comes from the decoys out distracting the police. After the heist, the gang members hightail it to their lair, located in a remote rural junkyard. When news of their crime reaches police officer Christini, he vows to capture them. Dobermann could not find himself a more ruthless adversary for Christini is evil incarnate and devoid of conscience and decency. When Christini and Dobermann finally meet a terrifying and graphically violent confrontation ensues. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

Tortilla Y Cinema
Benjamin Ballon wants to be a filmmaker, and has devoted a large part of his life for the past few years to getting to the point of filming an independent movie. He has been encouraged by Carmen Maura (playing herself), an established star, who has agreed to appear in his first film, and it is her level-headedness, calmness, and general good sense that keeps the project moving along, despite Benjamin's inexperience and a very temperamental male lead. On one occasion when the male lead is hours late for a shoot, her calm is the only thing which keeps the crew from walking out. The title comes from Maura's habit of bringing homemade tortillas to meetings, and using them to get her way. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

Johanna and her shy friend Jeanne (Maidi Roth) perform in a small mining town when Parisian Luc (Marc Duret), on a visit to close the mine, catches their act. When Luc loses his job, he becomes their representative. At a talent show for solo performers, Jeanne sings backstage while Johanna lip-syncs onstage. Fame follows, but Johanna's promiscuous activities and drug use create frictions with her friends. As Pierre Montgolfier, a friend of Jeanne's mother, veteran performer Serge Reggiani offers a rendition of the 1943 tune "Douce France." Shown at the 1997 Venice Film Festival. ~ Bhob Stewart, Rovi

Half Spirit: Voice of the Spider
This arty French musing on the meaninglessness of life is long on fascinating almost dream-like imagery, but short on traditional narrative. Half Spirit, photographed in yellow-gold hues, sits alone in a locked tile room. She writes her autobiography upon her body. Why she is in there is not revealed until the story's end. Excerpts from her life are filmed in blue, signifying the past. She is seen with her husband, a brutal French policeman who kept her chained to a radiator. Her only company is Jimminy, the spider who lives inside her head and tells her what to do. As per his instructions, she escapes one day and murders her spouse. She then takes off and in flight meets petty drug runner Gil, who is heading for Russia to smuggle nuclear material. Half Spirit begins pursuing Gil, who is also chased by the ruthless heavy the Priest, who works for Gil's boss. Half Spirit too is pursued by a crazed computer analyst, Badfly. He becomes a serial killer after his fiancee kills herself. He tries to kill Half Spirit, but she survives and he becomes her guardian. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

While to most outsiders Paris seems the very picture of beauty and civility, France has had a long and unfortunate history of intolerance toward outsiders, and this powerful drama from filmmaker Mathieu Kassovitz takes an unblinking look at a racially diverse group of young people trapped in the Parisian economic and social underclass. Vinz (Vincent Cassel), who is Jewish, Hubert (Hubert Kounde), who is Black, and Said (Said Taghmaoui), who is Arabic, are young men from the lower rungs of the French economic ladder; they have no jobs, few prospects, and no productive way to spend their time. They hang out and wander the streets as a way of filling their days and are sometimes caught up in frequent skirmishes between the police and other disaffected youth. One day, a street riot breaks out after police seriously injure an Arab student; the three friends are arrested and questioned, and it is learned that a policeman lost a gun in the chaos. However, what they don't know is that Vinz picked it up and has it in his possession, and when Vinz, Hubert, and Said get into a scuffle with a group of racist skinheads, the circumstances seem poised for tragedy. Actress Jodie Foster was so impressed with La Haine when she saw it at the 1995 Cannes Film Festival that she helped to arrange American distribution for the film through her production company, Egg Pictures. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

The four days in the life of three aimless, but handsome men in the South of France are chronicled in this French buddy film. It is the end of the tourist season and Marcel, Raoul, and Yoyo are simply hanging around. As usual, their days are spent drinking pastis, sunning themselves, robbing tourists, and driving around. They feel no compunction to look for real work, and they are not concerned with the moral ramifications of their actions. They are figuratively taken under the wing of Maurice, the owner of a local cafe. His pragmatic but sexy daughter Madeline uses these losers to exact her revenge upon a local honcho. The revenge is violent. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

Faut-Il Aimer Mathilde?
Mathilde (Dominique Blanc) has had a number of children, but is still an attractive woman. One day her husband simply picks up and leaves without any explanation whatever. At about the same time, she is involved at an accident at her workplace which makes her strongly aware of the passage of time. Can she once more know the love of a man? She has enough suitors: Charlie, though dull, has been in love with her since she could remember; Jacques is the father of one of her children; Mano has moved to the north of France from Spain, and wants to refurbish her house for her. Without rushing, she carefully considers each man (and her absent husband) in the context of her life, what she wants from it, and what is possible. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

The serpentine plotline of Luc Besson's La Femme Nikita begins its 117-minute slither when punkish, psychotic, and drug-ridden Nikita (Anne Parillaud) fires her gun into a cop's face following the stick-up of a drug store, and is promptly imprisoned. She is thrown into a dank cell, then injected with a substance and told it is a lethal toxin. Instead of dying, however, the comes to in an all-white interrogation room, where French intelligence officer Bob (Tchéky Karyo), informs her that an alternate to execution exists: she can receive covert government training as an assassin. She accepts the bid, is rigorously trained, and later returns to society as a seemingly normal and gentle civilian, but falls in love with a drugstore employee while she's waiting for that first government assignment. The paradoxical concept of a young woman blossoming socially while carrying out cold-blooded murders was downplayed when La Femme Nikita was remade in America as the silly and disappointing Point of No Return, directed by John Badham with Bridget Fonda in the lead. A far less sociopathic TV-series version of La Femme Nikita surfaced on the USA cable network in early 1997. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Two men answer the call of the ocean in this romantic fantasy-adventure. Jacques (Jean-Marc Barr) and Enzo (Jean Reno) are a pair of friends who have been close since childhood, and who share a passion for the dangerous sport of free diving. Professional diver Jacques opted to follow in the footsteps of his father, who died at sea when Jacques was a boy; to the bewilderment of scientists, Jacques harbors a remarkable ability to adjust his heart rate and breathing pattern in the water, so that his vital signs more closely resemble that of dolphins than men (he even considers a school of dolphins as his extended family). As Enzo persuades a reluctant Jacques to compete against him in a free diving contest -- determining who can dive deeper and longer without scuba gear -- Jacques meets Johanna (Rosanna Arquette), a beautiful insurance investigator from America, and he finds that he must choose between his love for her and his love of the sea. Le Grand Bleu ran 132 minutes in its original French version, but it was trimmed to 118 for American release, with the original score by Eric Serra replaced by music from Bill Conti. While the film did middling business in the U.S., it was a huge success in Europe, and director Luc Besson released an expanded 168-minute version in 1998. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Five Days One Summer
Fred Zinnemann's final film is a meditative examination of an illicit May-December romance, set in the mountain expanse of the Swiss Alps. Sean Connery plays Douglas, a middle-aged Scottish doctor on vacation in the Alps in 1932 with a beautiful and fresh-faced young woman, Kate (Betsy Brantley), whom he introduces as his wife. Douglas has taken Kate to the Alps to introduce her to the invigorating sport of mountain climbing. When Douglas and Kate arrive at the mountain lodge, their happiness is tempered by a knowing melancholy. Through flashbacks, it is revealed that Kate has been madly in love with Douglas since she was a little girl and that she seduced him away from another woman. The flashbacks also reveal that Kate is not his wife, but his niece. But then, in their mountain retreat, young and handsome guide Johann (Lambert Wilson) makes an entrance. Johann immediately develops an attraction for Kate. Now Kate has to worry if the feeling is mutual. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

Centuries ago, the ancients were determined to create a dragon that they could wield as a weapon, but even they were incapable of building such a complex creature. Their first attempt, Leviatha, was born an atrocity. Invigorated by their partial success, the ancients continued toiling to build the ultimate weapon, and eventually they sealed Leviatha away.
During the Dragon Raid, the royal army watched in horror as an abomination sprang from Altera itself and wreaked havoc on Saint's Haven. Leviatha had been revived. Only Gerrant was able to harm the creature, and in order to stop it, he tore it to pieces and scattered them throughout the land, sealing it away once more. Now, rumors of Leviatha's return spread across Saint's Haven and anxiety rises in those who remember the Dragon Raid.

This has become my favourite task of the week. Answering questions from the mail bag. The Grapefruit League games have begun and, even though they don't really mean anything, there are now boxscores to scour for names and numbers. It's getting closer and it's all good. My least favourite moment, of course, was boarding an Air Canada flight last Thursday evening to come home to this weather. In any case, I'll be hanging out in town to cover the Rogers Centre portion of the World Baseball Classic then heading back to Florida after that. This is my second end-of-February in Canada since 1978. The first was in 1995, because of the strike. On to the mail bag.
Q: Hey Richard,
Why all the panic on Vernon Wells and his injured hamstring? It's only February and everyone was initially talking about him missing opening day, then all of a sudden it's down to two weeks. Besides, most years he could stand to miss April and we wouldn't miss him. What's the story?
Nathan L., Mississauga
A: I have this emerging theory on the Jays and their injury reports. Basically it comes down to "more is less and less is more". Whenever the Jays step up and volunteer info right away a la Vernon Wells and say stuff like "at least a month" with a left hamstring strain, then more often than not it will turn out to be less time than they said. Call it the "Elmer Gantry Rule".
On the other hand, when the media has to stumble across an injury a la Mike Maroth or B.J. Ryan (a few years ago) and the initial report is "locked knee, day-to-day" or "lower back, day-to-day," those are the injuries that turn out to be the stunners. Call it the "We Are Cursed Rule".
And it's never a case of the Jays' medical staff, the team doctors misdiagnosing any of their players' physical issues. They have the right info. They are very competent at their jobs. It's a case of the Jays' front office having a covert mindset that the public doesn't need to know. It's why Jays' trainers aren't allowed to talk to the media about injuries.
"If we say a month and it's only two weeks, it makes it sound like good news. If we say day-to-day and it's a couple of months, then the fates have done us in once again." It's like the oil companies setting their gas prices. Once the price per litre went over a buck, we're all now high-fiveing each other when the price drops under 80 cents per litre. Woo-hoo! If this answer sounds a little cynical, it's because it is.
Q: Hi Richard,
I just read an article on the Star and as a side note it added what the future roster of the team might look like. It said we'd have David Cooper on first, Justin Jackson at short and Kevin Ahrens at third. Any word on these guys? What are they like, strengths, weaknesses, etc.?
James MacPhee, Toronto
A: All three of these players look like pretty good prospects, but the fact is that being a high draft pick does not always translate into major-league stardom. Russ Adams is a prime example. Year-after-year, following his No. 1 draft status in June '02, Adams was projected as the shortstop of the future. Earlier this year he was designated for assignment and outrighted to Triple-A.
From among Cooper, Jackson and Ahrens, I like Jackson the best, but at the same time he has the longest way to go in his development. Jackson, a shortstop, was drafted 48th overall in '07. Ahrens, a third-baseman, was drafted 16th overall in '07. Cooper, a first-baseman, was drafted 17th overall in '08. I would rank Cooper second and Ahrens third among the three, but don't look for any of them until Opening Day of 2011 at the earliest. All three could likely be in the starting lineup for A-Dunedin in April.
Q: Richard,
I hope you are enjoying the sun. There have been a lot of questions asked about what players could and should be traded from the Jays. I have one question for you, what does J.P. do in regards to this team before the season begins?
Scott Cochrane, Niagara-on-the-Lake
A: Punt. No, seriously, I think he should evaluate his very deep bullpen, pinpoint the three other guys that he wants to keep in support of B.J. Ryan, Scott Downs, Jesse Carlson and Brandon League and then package the next two most valuable major-league middle guys and send them to an NL team for an experienced No. 5 starter with no long-range value. That way he would only have to force-feed one young guy into the major-league inferno.
Q: Griff,
What are Dirk Hayhurst's chances of sticking with the big club? I know he only had a cup of coffee at the end of last year, but does he fit into the plans at all, or is he destined to be in AAA this year?
Jess Bechard, London
A: Dirk Hayhurst is a very funny guy. One hopes that he can make it to The Show, but considering he spent a season writing an online diary called "Non-prospect diary: Dirk Hayhurst" for Baseball America, at age 28, even he realizes the longshot nature of his quest. Already in the spring clubhouse he has been overheard saying some very hilarious things that cannot be repeated in a family blog. Hopefully he can stick at Triple-A for the Jays, but if he ever makes it to the majors it will mean that youngsters have failed and veterans have had cataclysmic injuries.
Q: Richard,
Any other pitchers out there with reconstructive surgery that the Jays haven't signed yet? I think my 43-year-old arm is available. Seriously, I, like many ball fans, welcome you back. With a thin starting staff, would you support letting the young kids go out there every fifth day win or lose and let them groom in the majors? Or do you support using retreads for the season until the young guys are major league ready.
Dale Tonelli, Timmins, Ont.
A: You may not know it (and I couldn't make this up), but former Expos and Red Sox GM Dan Duquette ended up performing summer stock in the New England area, starring in such classics as Damn Yankees and The Music Man. The rumour is that Jays' GM J.P. Ricciardi would like to join him next year on the New England stage-acting circuit beginning with an adapted version of Shakespeare's classic Richard III. But he insists on delivering the famous line as: "An arm! An arm! My kingdom for an arm!"
As for the young guys, I would teach Brett Cecil a simple, more deceptive delivery where he hides the ball better in his delivery, then I would start him in the fifth starter role and limit him to 100 pitches through the first two months, maybe throwing him into a spot after Doc so you know the bullpen is rested. I would try and nurse Matt Clement into the season as the No. 4 guy and see how far he can go before exploding like a Monty Python animation.
Q: As an Englishman who got into baseball during a family holiday to St Catharines 30 years ago, I don't understand the idea of comparing players from different (eras) purely by numbers. Every era has had its scandals and cheaters. Drugs and gambling have been ever present. Which era do you think is the most shameful in baseball history and what footnote would you put next to every record?
Gareth Harland, Newcastle, UK
A: Likely the most shameful era in baseball was the period from 1903-19 when players routinely jumped contracts from one league to another, when African Americans were systematically excluded from the game, when gambling was seemingly rampant and when seemingly the attitude was anything goes. Ironically, this was also the period of time that baseball gained a strong foothold on the American psyche as the National Pastime led by stars like Ty Cobb (a-hole), Cap Anson (major-league a-hole) and many others of that unlikeable, swashbuckling, egotistical ilk. That era was capped by the Black Sox Scandal leading to the arrival of Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis as a powerful commissioner to clean up the game and Babe Ruth to save it. The game's a survivor.
Q: Thanks for the blog Richard. One of the best baseball reads anywhere. If Adam Lind proves he's for real as a consistent big league hitter is there any possibility that they would move Lyle Overbay and try Lind at first? I admire excellent defence but it is so frustrating to watch Overbay bounce ball after ball to second for a double play when it seems the team might get something going. How about an honest assessment of him? I know I've had enough.
Phoenix Rhys, Ottawa
A: That's what happens when you take a guy out of his comfort zone ands ask him to do something beyond what his role should be. Lyle Overbay is a good defender with an alley-to-alley doubles-machine bat who should be batting sixth or seventh in a good major-league batting order. Last season he was asked to bat in an RBI role and, as you so teeth-grindingly pointed out, it seemed to produce groundball after groundball to second base. It's like watching Danny DeVito in the all-star slamdunk contest.
This year, with Lyle's hand stretched and strengthened and with others to (hopefully) fill the RBI roles, a healthy Overbay can have a role in this lineup, with 15 homers, 45 doubles and 80 RBIs. However, I would still look to trade him and install Lind at first base.
Q: Hi Richard,
Love the columns as usual. Two quickies: One, about how much time and leeway does Travis Snyder get before Kevin Millar is in or out? That locker room, in my opinion, is screaming for a guy with his attitude. Secondly, got any good Expos spring stories to tell?
Lee Denike, Mississauga
A: How much time or leeway for Snider? What time is it. The Jays are worried that the second time around the league, that the rest of the AL will study enough video of Snider to discover the holes that allowed him to strike out 177 times in '08. There is no rush for Snider as long as Lind, Rios and Overbay are playing every day. If Snider is shipped out, then Jose Bautista and maybe Joe Inglett can be the extra outfielders with Millar, Johnny Mac, Inglett and Bautista as extra infielders and DH. The clubhouse is fine without Millar. It's once they leave the clubhouse and start playing baseball that's the problem.
Q: Hi Mr. Griffin,
I'm sitting on my bed reading the spring training blog and wishing that I was in Florida. I was through Dunedin following the Leafs on a road trip in 2006 and I was struck by the tranquility of the area. So with the raging cold and, if it's warm enough, snow, your notes from the balmy tropics warms my heart even while my nose and toes freeze. A pleasant respite. Anyway, on to the reason for the message, here goes.
Last summer, largely because of one of your blogs, my brother, best friend and I went to NYC to see the Jays play the Yankees over the Aug 29-31 weekend. When the fan slid into second on Friday night and then was gang tackled, he took off from beside me. We got dirt from the pitcher's mound at Yankee Stadium and I drank so many flat Bud Lights that I think I actually enjoyed one of them. But now it's gone and the times we've spent there are only memories to be enlarged with each retelling, so now that you can look back on the "House that Ruth Built" what are your premier memories? It was your description of the "Yankee Stadium Must Do's" that made me convince the guys that it was worth it even if the Jays were going to be out of it by then (odds). And where must we go next?
Thanks a lot and even more for the inspiration,
Go Spos/Jays
Gabriel Byatt, Fort Simpson
A: Thanks for your comments. Of course you realize that gallon of flat Bud Light was not on the bucket list of Yankee Stadium things to do. The first part of the question is regarding my Yankee Stadium memories. Of course, the top memory would be the first time going out to Monument Park and seeing the Mickey Mantle bust. He was my childhood baseball hero, because growing up in Montreal the Yankee games on radio and TV were what we mostly got.
Second most memorable would be the day I took the train up from Baltimore to New York to watch David Cone in his first start at Yankee Stadium after being traded from the Jays in mid-season. It wasn't the Cone game itself. Instead I found myself suffering from Baltimore crab-cake food poisoning on the way and upon arrival, rushed into the little press room bathroom near the Yankee clubhouse and puked my guts out. After steering the press bus for what seemed an eternity, as I gathered my thoughts and straightened my tie it occurred to me that the great Babe Ruth, the Bambino had likely done the same thing as I had just done, maybe in the same place (but for a different reason). That's memory No. 2.
Then there's the '01 World Series vs. the D'backs. The night of the homers by Scott Brosius and Derek Jeter and, later, the fans tribute to Paul O'Neill on his last night as a player at the stadium.
As for your next trip, I would suggest Baltimore on a summer weekend. Stay at the Admiral Fell Inn over at Fell's Point. You can take the ferry across the inner harbour at lunchtime, have a great seafood meal, do some people watching then wander up the street to Camden Yards, still my favourite park when it's full and the crowd is into it. Have dinner at Boog's B-B-Q behind the right field stands. Maybe Boog Powell will even be there. On one of the days you're there, rent a car and drive down to the Maryland shore and visit Cal Ripken's hometown of Havre de Grace which amazingly is where the Susquehanna River empties into the ocean. That river, of course has its headwaters at Cooperstown, NY. Look for the Ripken Baseball Complex. The only caveat is that after midnight, while wandering over to the Wharf Rat for last call, you will be stepping over a bunch of peacefully slumbering, or awake and conversating quietly, homeless people. They are the least aggressive panhandlers in America. Treat them with respect.

Soccer is conventionally known as the world's most popular sport. With people from over 200 countries playing the sport, soccer has a far-reaching impact in many cultures. In United States, the sport cotinues to grow at a steady pace. Here at the University of Michigan, soccer is among the most popular sports in Intramurals. Played with 9 players per side, Intramural Soccer offers a recreational environment, where players from all levels can compete in different leagues.
We offer quality and affordable outdoor and recreational equipment to everyone. From tents, backpacks, and stoves to volleyball sets and tug-of-war ropes, the Rental Center has what you need!
Badminton is a one-on-one game played on a court similar to that of volleyball, with different dimensions of course. The aim of badminton is to hit the shuttle with your racket so that it passes over the net and lands inside your opponent's half of the court. Whenever you do this, you have won a rally; win enough rallies, and you win the match.
Rec Sports has a variety of space available to rent for U-M student organizations, academic departments, alumni, and non-university affiliated groups. Additionally, court reservations can be made in our facilities for many different sports during drop-in hours.
Indoor Facilities
Outdoor Adventures provides a variety of opportunities for students, faculty, staff and community members to explore, adventure and recreate in the outdoors.
Sand Volleyball is a team sport consisting of two teams of four. As in indoor volleyball, teams compete to send the ball over the net and onto the ground of their opponents, with the added element of the sand court making it a little tougher to accomplish. Using rally scoring, teams may score on any serve. Due to the competitive play and easiness of rules, sand volleyball has grown in popularity around the world.
Kickball is a team sport made up of eight players. As a playground game, kickball resembles many of the rules you will see in baseball but with one exception, players use their legs rather than a bat. With no real equipment necessary besides an inflatable ball, this great game can be understood and enjoyed with ease.
Tired of playing pickup basketball? Intramural basketball is an officiated game of five-on-five basketball, with three weeks of regular season. Then, a playoff tournament determines who wins the highly sought after Intramual Champion t-shirts.
Outdoor Adventures now rents Blue Bikes for only $5 a day, $10 a weekend, or $75 for the whole semester. Pick-up and drop-off Blue Bikes at the Outdoor Adventures Rental Center or the North Campus Recreational Building.
Do you have a story that you would like to share about your days at the University of Michigan it could be something you remember about being a Rec Sports employee, Rec Sports event or Intramural Sports game you played in that was significant, a piece of personal history you'd like to share.

You expected to be a Blockbuster or.
Are we going to see more gain.
I'm so -- because he passed -- we also have to watch is he going to contradict himself and what he said before.
He really could create a lot of damage for the president essentially paint the president as a liar and -- and Susan Rice potentially -- the wire for the statements that they made.
About this being a spontaneous mom and asserting what they actually knew before making those statements that -- would've made the wires.
But he also is responsible for his own words and I'm just wondering.
If he comes out now and says we knew this was a terrorist attack people are gonna have a lot of questions for Henis and -- why did you lie to us the first time around.
Or gender has asserted here is the possibility of the clapper morale Petraeus at all in the intelligence committee.
Are running a disinformation campaign against the American people.
That would be the effect of which are really saying there right right absolutely I think you know.

Dwight and Nicole, the DuPont Brothers
Friday, August 30, 8:30PM at Signal Kitchen in Burlington. $15/18. 18+.
Wait for It
Rootsy soul duo Dwight & Nicole released their debut album, Signs, to critical acclaim in 2010. The years since have been packed with life and career-changing events, not the least of which included a move from Boston to Burlington and Nicole Nelson's show-stopping appearance as a contestant on the NBC talent show "The Voice" last year. No wonder it's taken three years to release a follow-up album, eh? Fans will be pleased to know that second record is due out later this fall. In the meantime, this Friday, August 30, the duo plays Signal Kitchen in Burlington with support from the DuPont Brothers.

Watch US CEO video interviews | |
View the data point for this issue |
US CEOs are more intent on M&A in 2013 than their global peers, and they're concentrating on consolidation and expansion in the US market. Forty-two percent of US CEOs say they're planning to complete a domestic deal this year. Thirty percent say they completed a domestic deal in 2012. (Explore the data)
The US deals market, while in better shape than some markets elsewhere, remains restrained. Yet the fundamentals for growth in the deals market are in place. Interest rates are low and over $1 trillion in cash sits on corporate balance sheets. (Watch the CEO insights videos)
Some sector-specific shifts may drive activity. Sweeping reforms in the Affordable Care Act are likely to spur consolidation as healthcare revenue models change. Another example: Financial services companies continue to pursue divestitures to bolster capital levels and unlock asset value.
In fact, divestitures have been important—representing around a third of deal volume in 2012—and they are expected to retain a prominent strategic position in 2013 for US and European CEOs.

I just bought a used e6420 cpu. It overclocks so far to 3.5ghz but something strange has occured. When I overclock my systems ram only or with ram and the cpu overclocked together my video card acts goofy. It's fine with just the cpu overclocked but once I touch the systems ram I start getting VPU recovery errors in window but once I set my systems ram back to defaults I'm fine. The ram is the key. My video card function fine no matter what I do aslong as I don't touch my ram. I tested my ram with memtest I get zero errors. I'm puzzeled here. With my other cpu's I never had this problem and the ram being overclocked doesn't seem to effect the cpu overclocking just the video card stability? Help if you have any idea what the problem is.
seems like your pci e is linked to your fsb, causing the pci e frequency to rise (basically ocing your v card) and the vid card cant take it, which is causing instability, find an option in your bios to unlink the pci e frequency, the stock frequency is 100. (in my bios its listed as pci e spread spectrum- enabled spreads the fsb to the pci e, disabled doesn;t)
First thought is Lock the PCI-E bus at 100 (my P35 board requires 105 or higher for max OC...don't ask why...) Overclocked PCI bus can cause hdd corruption/failure, gfx problems, BSOD's, etc. Hope this helps
I turned the spread spectrum to disable but it is still happening. I agree with you by overclocking my systems ram I'm some how overclocking my PCIe slot which is now locked if I did it right and set at 100 mghz but my video card is still malfunctioning when I oc my sytems ram. It's like my system is stuck or something.This ram was able to do DDR 1160 np and never effected my video card before. I also found speed step on and it's off now too.
I'm not sure what you mean I didn't turn up the pci e voltage at all on purpose that is, should I? As long as my ram is set to ddr 800 my video cards is fine the minute I adjust it to say ddr 950 vpu error start in windows. My ram is some how effecting my video card and i'm stumped. Next I'm going to pull the Cmos battery to see if re-sets a voltage regulator thats stuck on the motherboard or something. it seems like my video cards fine it overclocks and benches at 875/1190 but the minute you touch the systems ram it malfunctions at stock speeds. So I thinks my video cards fine. I hope.
leave it at DDR800 then. Try a different CPU if you can, however I am guessing the motherboard is responsible, or the CPU.
Tru the card works fine but perhaps the mobo doesnt. Try to UP the voltage on the card a bit and see what happens then.
the fsb is still spreading to the pci e seems like it, because if you're fine with cpu ocs and not ram ocs, then i would guess its the spread spectrum and stuff. try using clockgen to c if your pci e (or pci, make sure that its locked at 33 or spread spectrum is off) is getting raised along with the ram. uping the voltage on the card should help stabilize it to the increased frequency, sort of like ocing a cpu. if this has just recently started happening with the same setup, its probably your bios settings, so clearing the bios (via jumper method, not the battery method) might fix it.
i think i have this exact same problem. i also thought it was my ram or something, but i ran memtest and there was no errors.
Okay reset the cmos jumper now I cannot boot at all C1 error or ram error it a voltage thing default is 1.8v for mem and has alway been hard to get a boot have to use one stick get it to boot then up the votage to 2.1 v but it won't boot somethings up with my ram not sure what yet or worse number 3 motherboard rma . I'm heading to best buy for some cheapo ram to see if it will boot etc. If not rma to evga
Did you try turning off VPU recover, to eliminate the possibility of a dodgy driver. If that doesn't work, try the uninstall, Driver Cleaner, reinstall shenanigans. If, during the course of OCing the new cpu, you encountered some instability, it can corrupt drivers and systems files. Also, at what ram speeds do you encounter instability? It's quite possible your ram just doesn't want to clock as far anymore. Gradual degradation of sensitive components, such as ram, is very common.
anything past 800 mghz on the ram causes vpu error. EVGA is sending a 3rd board great customer service but this board is off to ebay.
i'm done with 680I boards got this one on the way because it's the best i can afford and was given very good reviews online. 560+ fsb on one review and another reported 600 fsb http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813131196 I wanted the Gigabyte or the Abit boards in this review but they are 20.00 to 30.00 dollars more than the Asus. Which appears to be very good and similar to the more expensive P5K deluxe.
explain more TK why and how do you think the cpu could effect it I was thinking it might be the culprit but I'm not sure why. I know it's hard to believe but but i've sold all my Cpu stock right now LOL so I cannot change it at present is there away to check the cpu's chip memory.
i dont think that the cpu is responsible, and yes you do want to get a gigabyte p35 board instead of an asus..
Hmm, my P35-DS3L lets me lock in the PCI E setting that I want. In fact, it has it's own control. Does the 680I have that option?
hes got spread spectrum, which is the same thing i believe, just worded differently. with spread spectrum disabled, the fsb doesn't spread to the pci e, and it runs off of its own frequency, and for some things, like ram, auto will link it to the fsb and setting the speed manually will keep it seperate, well its like that in my board. he has the problem when ocing the ram and not the cpu, so it might be a bad board or something.. try reflashing the bios? did you check your pci e speed in clockgen when you have your mem oced? that'll tell us if your pci e is getting raised or not.
Well that might be , however, Gigabyte never was a high quality motherboard maker until recently like in the last few years. They were a value board maker. Asus on the other hand has always made atleast one top end board . The board I'm getting is very competative and I can only buy what I can afford this board is very close to the Gigabyte board and may even exceed it in options. I know you don't like Asus I didn't either until bought a M2N32 Sli Wireless deluxe board (which is still one of the top Am2 boards made) and that changed my mine. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128064 first choice but too expensive http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813127030 second choice but also too expensive. I like the bios reset on the outside of case plus it's not as good a overclocker as the Gigabyte or Asus but close. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131196 third choice almost matches the Gigabyte board spec for spec and overclocks within 6 mghz fsb of it but cost 30.00 less and has wireless built in and has as good a cooling system and better phase power system
yes this board Evga NF68 680I T1 is a top of the line board with about every control available. It and the A1 are physically Identical the A1 has a lifetime warranty and cost 226.00 the t1 209.00 and only has a 3 year warranty.
gigabytes reach higher fsb's then asus for the p35 chipset, im not biased, but its just that the asus p5k and lower boards suffer from terrible vdroop and shitty ocing, while even the 100 buck gigabytes run well. idk much about the abit boards but i know that most people wiht the gigabyte boards are very happy with em. and a lot of people recommend gigabyte p35s over asus p35's so you know.
Not true depends on the review you read I have seen 600 fsb on asus boards p35. I cannot afford the gigabyte board much as I do want it. Who knows I sure loved my old Gigabyte P965 DS3 it was crappy with memory but great O/Cer. I might be sorry but the next lowest Gigabyte didn't have enough usbs. I sure loved my Asus M2N32 wireless deluxe editon too but we will soon see. Heck some people would say my current motherboard with true sli and features out the azz is better than these boards. Fsb will only do 500 (only lol) but the other feature make up for it but I cannot do that anymore.
thats not always true either sometimes less expensive boards are better case In point my board retails for 209.00 the ds4 186.00 And the DS4 in IMO is better.

Published: 10/5/2012 10:30 PM | Last update: 10/8/2012 12:17 PM Buhler wins; Andale is nextCrusaders struggle on offense but have enough to top Winfield; district play looms.WINFIELD - Buhler's offense never got into gear Friday night. Its pass defense - well-documented for its failures the last three games - allowed two long touchdowns in the second half.But when the Crusaders needed a stop, they got one.
"We have Andale next week - that says it all," said Joe Schmidt, whose interception and 67-yard return for a touchdown gave Buhler a lead it would never relinquish. "I think we're ready." Ready or not, district play is here. The Crusaders have played a tough schedule with a young team and have come out of the other side battle-tested, but Friday's performance against a better team might not have been good enough. Buhler was shut out in the second half - something that ordinarily doesn't happen with this team. The good news is that the Crusaders had built a big enough cushion to withstand those two long touchdown plays. "We never got things going the way we wanted to on offense," said Buhler coach Steve Warner. "It was nice to see us move the chains at the end." The Vikings (3-3) did a good job of bottling up Riley Allen, who was held out of the end zone for the first time this season. He rushed for 111 yards but needed 25 carries to accumulate that total. Schmidt provided Buhler with a quick lead three minutes into the contest when he stepped in front of a Sam Camp pass to the right, made the interception and raced 67 yards for the score. "I was playing safety on that play. I was just looking at the quarterback, looking at his eyes," he said. "The ball came right to me. There was a receiver near." For a team that has been slow in starting - it had spotted the opposition early leads in the previous four games - that was a welcomed sight for Warner. And that the big play came in pass defense was an added bonus. The Crusaders missed the extra point and went for two after Luke Berblinger's three-yard touchdown run midway through the second quarter. But the junior quarterback's pass on the attempt for two points was errant and Buhler had to settle for a 12-0 lead. Not to worry. Those points Warner was chasing were returned to him four plays later when the Vikings - in punt formation - snapped the ball out of the end zone to make it 14-0. Will Perry's 22-yard field goal with 1:26 to play in the first half gave the Crusaders a 17-0 break at the intermission. But Winfield got three big passing plays to start the second half. "I thought we would be able to pass the ball against them," said Winfield coach Justin Price. "We just didn't get any time in the first half. We had some chances in the second half." Winfield cut the score to 17-14 and an errant lateral play gave them the ball at the 29-yard line with a chance at the lead. "That's when our defense stepped up," Warner said.
The Vikings made a last-ditch effort at a 47-yard game-tying field goal, but it came up short.

If you're planning to travel for the holidays this week, you're not alone.
AAA predicts 91.9 million Americans will travel 50 miles or more from home during the holiday season which runs from Friday, December 23 to Monday, January 2. That's a 1.4 percent increase over the number of people who traveled this time last year.
"The 11-day Year-End holiday period is the longest holiday travel season of the year, affording many more Americans time to visit family or take vacations," said Tom Chestnut, President/CEO of AAA Western and Central New York. "This is also a positive sign for the travel industry as we anticipate the second highest year-end holiday travel volume in the past ten years."
Approximately 83.6 million people, or 91 percent of holiday travelers, plan to drive, which is a 2.1 percent increase from last year.
If you are traveling by car, there's some good news. Gas prices nationwide are down to approximately $3.24 a gallon. That's down about five cents over the past two weeks. We're still paying a bit more in the Syracuse area.
If you're traveling by air, you should expect fewer people to join you in the skies this year. Air travel is projected to be down nearly 10 percent. About 5.4 million holiday travelers or 6 percent of people will fly during the holiday travel period. That's a 9.7 percent decrease from this time last year. Jet fuel costs and capacity cuts continue to impact holiday air travel. According to AAA, airfares are expected to be 21 percent higher than last year with an average lowest round-trip rate of $210 for the top 40 U.S. air routes.
Other modes of travel (bus, trains, watercraft, multi-modal travel) will make up the remaining three percent of trips, with 2.9 million people expected to travel by these modes. That's 4.2 percent higher than last year.
Hotel rates for AAA Three Diamond or mid-range lodgings are expected to increase a modest one percent from last year with travelers spending an average of $126 per night compared to $125 one year ago. Travelers planning to stay at AAA Two Diamond hotels can expect to pay four percent more at an average cost of $92 per night, up from $88 last year. Daily car rental rates are $40 on average, a 21 percent decrease from one year ago.
Overall, people are expected to travel about 726 miles from home this year and spend approximately $718. Fuel and transportation costs combine to consume the largest share of holiday spending, followed by shopping and food and beverages. Other expenditures include accommodations, entertainment and recreation and other costs.
Fifty-nine percent of travelers say the economy will not impact their travel plans.
Are you planning to travel in the next week? How are you getting to your destination? Has the economy affected your plans this year? Leave your thoughts below.
