NYC, DC, Philly...cities are my passion... I have a masters in City Planning and I love understanding how cities work and how different components that go into shaping each city that I visit or live in.
I'm originally from Manhattan, but I've settled down in DC.
I have a strong loyalty to the Yankees (sorry, Nats' and O's fans), but I also love hockey, golf and swimming.
My friends and family are very important to me and I pride myself on being someone that friends come to for advice.
I'm generally up for anything, but prefer to be low-key when going out. How about a game of darts or a glass of wine and intelligent conversation?

Excretory/Urinary System
Background Information:
As animals perform their various metabolic processes, protein and nucleic acid, both of which contain nitrogen, are broken down. While some of the nitrogen is used to manufacture new nitrogen-containing molecules, much of it cannot be used for this purpose and must be disposed of as waste. Typically, the first nitrogen-containing molecule that forms is ammonia (NH3, which is very water-soluble, forming NH4OH, a strong base. In some way, this ammonia must be gotten rid of before it raises the pH of the body fluids. Because ammonia is so water-soluble, aquatic animals often can get rid of it just by diffusion into the surrounding water. Thats one reason why the water in your aquarium gets bad and needs to be changed, and why not changing the water could kill the fish. However, ammonia doesnt readily go from body fluids into air, so terrestrial animals need other ways of getting rid of nitrogenous wastes.
Structure of Purine The two most common substances used by terrestrial animals to get rid of excess nitrogen are urea and uric acid. Many animal species that arent terribly concerned about water-loss, including humans, convert the ammonia to urea, which is water-soluble and excreted in a water-based solution. Other organisms such as birds, insects, or lizards, especially if they live in an arid area, must conserve water whenever possible, thus convert the NH3 to uric acid. Uric acid is not water-soluble, thus can be excreted with little, if any, water with it. This is the white goo in bird droppings. While the major portion of human nitrogenous waste is in the form of urea, humans typically excrete some uric acid, too. Uric acid is another kind of purine like the adenine and guanine in our DNA (structure to the right).
Gout is a disorder in which humans start to accumulate more than the usual amount of uric acid (caused by either the body manufacturing excess uric acid or the kidneys not excreting enough of it) and since its not water-soluble, it gets stored in the body, frequently in toe joints, causing pain and deformation of the joints involved as well as the formation of kidney stones. Traditionally, people who had gout were put on diets low in purines to try to help alleviate the condition, but according to the Merck Manual, now these people are doped up with drugs rather than given nutritional counseling: [Drugs are so effective in lowering the serum urate concentration that rigid restrictions of the purine content of the diet usually is unnecessary.]. Typically, gout is treated with colchicine, a deadly poison (see further notes below)! Caffeine and its relatives, theobromine (in cocoa), and theophylline (in tea) are classified as xanthines (a subgroup within the purines), thus it would make sense that people with gout should be counseled to avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate.
Some insects, notably blowfly larvae (larvae of those shiny green or blue flies) excrete their nitrogenous wastes as allantoin, another purine. Allantoin is known to be a cell-proliferant, thus is used to help wounds to heal. For hundreds of years, people have recognized that the presence of blowfly larvae in a gangrenous wound actually helped it to heal better. From about the turn of the century until the invention of a lot of synthetic drugs, blowfly larvae were raised aseptically, and used to treat severe wounds. With the increase in availability of chemicals after World War II, the use of blowfly larvae declined, but Ive heard of several cases lately where, for some reason, this treatment was necessary and/or preferred over synthetic drugs. It has been found that the fly larvae only eat dead, gangrenous tissue, leaving the live, healthy tissue, and since their nitrogenous waste is allantoin, that stimulates the wound to heal, usually with less scaring. In this procedure, small, sterile larvae are introduced into the wound and, if needed, traded for other small ones when they get big.
We excrete nitrogenous wastes via our kidneys. Our kidneys are located on either side of the spine, just up under the bottom ribs. They are well supplied with blood via the renal artery and renal vein. Urine made in the kidney collects in the renal pelvis within the kidney, then flows down the ureter to the bladder where it is stored until voided. From the bladder, the urine flows to the outside via the urethra, (which in the male also serves as part of the reproductory tract).
Human Excretory System
(clipart edited from Corel Presentations 8) The kidney is composed of an outer layer, the cortex, and an inner core, the medulla. The kidney consists of repeating units (tubules) called nephrons. The tops of the nephrons make up or are in the cortex, while their long tubule portions make up the medulla. To the right is a diagram of an individual nephron. Each nephron has a closely associated blood supply. Blood comes in at the glomerulus and transfers water and solutes to the nephron at Bowmans capsule. In the proximal tubule, water and some good molecules are absorbed back into the body, while a few other, unwanted molecules/ions are added to the urine. Then, the filtrate goes down the loop of Henle (in the medulla) where more water is removed (back into the bloodstream) on the way down, but the up side is impervious to water. Some NaCl (salt) is removed from the filtrate at this point to adjust the amount in the fluid which surrounds the tubule. Capillaries wind around and exchange materials with the tubule. In the distal tubule, more water and some good solutes are removed from the urine, while some more unwanted molecules are put in. From there, the urine flows down a collecting duct which gathers urine from several nephrons. As the collecting duct goes back through the medulla, more water is removed from the urine. The collecting ducts eventually end up at the renal pelvis which collects the urine from all of them. The area where the collecting ducts enter the renal pelvis is a common area for formation of kidney stones, often giving them a staghorn shape.
Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) from the pituitary is one factor influencing urine production. ADH promotes water retention by the kidneys, and its secretion is regulated by a negative feedback loop involving blood water and salt balances. ADH helps the kidney tubules reabsorb water to concentrate the urine. When the blood water level is too high (when youve been drinking a lot of liquids), this acts as a negative feedback to inhibit the secretion of ADH so more water is released. Ethanol also inhibits secretion of ADH, so a person who consumes a lot of alcoholic beverages could excrete too much water (and maybe even become dehydrated). Many diuretics work by interfering with ADH production, thus increasing the volume of urine produced. These diuretic effects are one reason why a person drinking beer (alcohol) or coffee (caffeine) needs to urinate more frequently.
When a persons kidneys cease functioning, due to illness or other causes, renal dialysis can be used on a short-term basis to filter the persons blood. This is not a perfect process; it cant do everything a persons kidneys can. Typically a person is put on renal dialysis as a temporary measure to extend the persons life until a kidney transplant can be found. While life-saving, this procedure is often very inconvenient and stressful for the person. It requires spending long periods of time, several days a week, hooked up to the dialysis machine: the persons blood must actually pass into the dialysis machine so the wastes can be filtered out, and then the blood is returned to the persons body. This, combined with symptoms caused by the renal failure (the inability of the persons kidneys to function) often preclude working at a job to earn the money to pay for the treatment. People can get by with one kidney, and the closest tissue match for a kidney transplant is often a sibling. However, as one former student who was a kidney-transplant recipient pointed out, even kidney transplants dont last forever. Besides the constant workings of the persons immune system to reject this foreign tissue, whatever disease caused the problem in the first place will probably eventually also affect the transplanted kidney. Since the same donor cant provide another new kidney, this may mean going back on dialysis and hoping a matching donor (accident victim) can be found before its too late.

Miranda Lambert Diet and Exercise
Miranda Lambert Opts For "Easy Living" and a Healthier Life
Since Miranda Lambert's big weight-loss reveal last November, the public has kept a close eye on the talented country sensation. When the rumors swirled that she had undergone weight-loss surgery, Miranda wrote an open letter on her website explaining that they couldn't be further from the truth. Miranda lost weight "the healthy and good old-fashioned way. Watching what I eat and working out with my trainer Bill Crutchfield."
She's featured on the cover of this month's Women's Health for good reason! Even with the pressures of a new album coming out, Miranda has continued to experience healthy success through sustainable lifestyle changes and regular exercise. Here are some of the rules she's choosing to live by today.
She keeps healthy snacks on hand: On past tours, Miranda was notorious for keeping junk food on hand, but as of late, "almonds and bananas" are the only snacks allowed on the bus. She understands that taking temptation out of the picture is essential; she's even said, "I don't want Cheetos anywhere around me!"
She mixes up her exercise routine: When she's at home in Oklahoma, Miranda has taken up a new hobby: English riding lessons. Miranda says the sport allows her to clear her mind and do "something [that's] positive and physical and a hard workout." She still complements her equestrian endeavors with more traditional workouts with her trainer. Miranda says the two do a lot of "the stuff nobody loves" — but works — like body-weight exercises, resistance-band moves, and circuit training.
She's learned to sip on green juice: Miranda says that she likes her vegetables — just with cheese and ranch dressing on the side. Instead of reverting back to old habits, Miranda has learned to drink green juice, since she's not a huge fan of veggies on their own. When she sips something green, Miranda feels like she's consuming "straight-up vitamins and good food," which supports her goals and keeps her energized, she says in Women's Health.
She won't obsess over the scale: Miranda has called the scale "your worst enemy when you're trying to lose weight or gain weight," since stepping on can put you in a sour mood really quickly. Instead of looking for a specific number, Miranda recently told Women's Health she's now choosing to judge her weight loss by how her clothes are fitting. If you've struggled with a similar sentiment, this might be the one tip of Miranda's to take to heart.

Reviews for Crusader Kings II: Hymns to the Old Gods
New Musicpalmtreebearer | Sept. 1, 2015 | See all palmtreebearer's reviews »
If you have played as a Christian ruler many times and now you are getting ready to play as a pagan, this music can really put you in the mood for something else. If you have played this game enough, the music becomes very natural and common place, so a good music pack can shake things up nicely.
Excellent ImmersionConorEngelb | Aug. 7, 2013 | See all ConorEngelb's reviews »
In any game, especially one that you're almost certainly going to spend hundreds of hours playing, immersion is important. If you're playing as a Viking ruler, you want to feel like a Viking. Like you've got a great big bushy beard and a skull full of ale. And other Viking things. This music DLC makes you feel like a true Viking.
Good for what it isHolyGigi | July 16, 2013 | See all HolyGigi's reviews »
Since this is a song DLC, it doesnt bring any new content to the game. BUT, if you enjoy the music in CK2 and want even more immersion, I would suggest you get it, especially when it's on 75% sale. It's really great to be able to play different nations and have music in the background that actually suits them.
Not needed but nice for immersionExpiredJordan | May 28, 2013 | See all ExpiredJordan's reviews »
Like all of the other song packs for Crusader Kings 2 many people would consider it completely unnecessary and for the most part useless, which I could agree with. On the other hand though it completes the immersion of playing as a viking warrior. On the other hand you could always just mute the games volume and just turn on your own music or you could just change the games sound files. So if you can live without the music then I think it would be better to pass this downloadable content up. Overall because of the little need for the dlc, and the great immersion factor it brings if you buy it then I would give this DLC a sixty two out of one hundred.

WCAV (Charlottesville Channel 19), Bianca Spinosa, July 24, 2008
Searching for someone's criminal record is free, and now it can be done online.
Several websites are popping up, promising to let you look up people's criminal
history. All you need to know is their name and the state they live in.
Every county, city, and state keeps public records of criminal offenders, but now
some websites are putting that information online.
Thanks to sites like dmv.org and criminalsearches.com, looking up someone's
criminal record is more than easy. Sites are trying to make it entertaining.
Criminalsearches.com has a section on the list of criminals in your neighborhood

Maryland bishops issue statement on religious liberty
Catholic World News - November 10, 2011
The bishops of Maryland have issued a statement reviewing the history of religious freedom in Maryland and decrying recent attacks on what James Madison called "the most sacred of all property."
"In recent years there has been a subtle promotion of the idea that religious liberty should be restricted to Sunday morning worship," the bishops said in their statement. "The right to exercise our faith and follow our conscience in all aspects of our lives is a right increasingly viewed with hostility.
"Sadly, some view the Church's very presence in the public square as an act of imposition," they continued. "They claim that our identification as persons of faith disqualifies us from participation in the public debate.
"We call on all Marylanders--including those of our Catholic faith, other faiths, or no faith at all--to reaffirm the basic, foundational principles upon which our democratic society is built," they added. "Everyone has the right to live in accordance with his or her particular religious beliefs, subject only to such limits as are necessary for the safe operation of society. Society as a whole benefits when all citizens in our pluralistic democracy--including religious citizens and institutions--remain free to participate in public life and to do so in accordance with their sincerely held beliefs."

Already a Hit Abroad, but Can She Find Success at Home?
Shani Boianjiu's debut novel was written in English, snapped up by a major American publisher, and sold for translation in nearly two dozen countries. But how will the 25-year-old Israeli do in her own country?
There is a chance that the most talked about author of the year will be Shani Boianjiu, even if we're not talking about her for literary reasons. The debut novel, written in English, of 25-year-old Boianjiu from Kfar Vradim was published in the United States and Canada by Hogarth Press, part of Random House, one of the publishing world's biggest names.

Live and Let Live
Fur & Feathers is a board game for all ages with an animal-friendly twist. Players' pieces travel around the playfully illustrated farmyard board, on a mission to rescue five friendly animals. Journey to the Farm or the Animal Shelter and flick the spinner to see which animal you have saved, or order up something vegetarian at the Choices Cafe. Along the way, players will have fun answering animal trivia questions. Created by Christine Durrant, a mother who wanted to teach her children about kind and responsible treatment of animals, the game helps players to learn how their choices affect other life on our planet. The combination of knowledge and luck required to win make this a fun activity for both old and young. Made in Steurvant, Wisconsin.

I've seen the kids have so much fun with this game. It's educational and interactive.

Changing Sync Schedule
Asked on Aug 12, 2014 - 12:36 UTC
I am on a limited internet connection and I was wondering if there's any way to change the amount the app syncs so that it syncs with other devices less often or only syncs when I do it manually?
All responses
Replied on Aug 12, 2014 - 12:52 UTC
Hello Amanda,
That's unfortunately not possible, at least not directly. You could try to use firewalls to block out app's connectivity, though we strongly advise to let it sync whenever possible as there's a limitations to how many offline changes the app can store before it would start to overwrite the oldest changes.
These limits are of course quite big, but still, if there is a connection, it's better to sync the changes - there's not much data that the app sends to the server anyway :-)

For the 2008 release of The Dark Knight, director Christopher Nolan and cinematographer Wally Pfister, ASC, BSC shot large format film to bring pinnacle scenes to the screen in a gigantic way. The filmmaking team re-united for The Dark Knight Rises, one of the most anticipated films of the US summer season, and chose to return to the IMAX. For The Dark Knight Rises, they used more 65 mm 15-perf format footage than any Hollywood movie in the history of cinema, according to The Wall Street Journal.
This large format renaissance in narrative storytelling is exciting, and the rewards are evident: jaw-dropping visuals combined with an unparalleled movie-going experience that gets audiences off the couch and into cinema seats. As filmmakers continue to seek new ways to tell stories, their creative motivation hasn't changed – to tell compelling stories in unique ways. And the large format helps them attain their visual goals.
There is an incalculable difference in 65mm versus digital capture, and that is just one of many reasons that a number of prolific filmmakers are super-sizing their camera negative. Robert Elswit, ASC, imagined a stunning scene for Mission: Impossible-Ghost Protocolthat he knew would be served best with 65mm. In the signature sequence with Tom Cruise hanging from Dubai's Burj Khalifa—the world's tallest building – Elswit knew that the scene would be most dramatically conveyed with large format acquisition. He said he and director Brad Bird needed the scope of the large format to convey the scale of the building, and called 65mm the "wow" factor for those scenes. (link to InCamera story)
Other great storytellers like Paul Thomas Anderson are using large format on The Master, due in theaters soon. Terrence Malick used 65mm for scenes in last year's lyrically poetic Tree of Life. And the dazzling Snow White and the Huntsmen, released this past June, utilized a grand canvas for key shots in this re-imagined epic adventure of the classic fairytale. These filmmakers, and more, are choosing the scope and depth of the 65mm frame to enhance their vision.
The 65 mm film format has been around since late in the 19th century when there was experimentation and exploration of the new medium of film. Many films of the 1950s and 1960s were shown at large format venues to lure television-crazed audiences back to movie theaters. Today, 65 mm film is used for both narrative and documentary features to provide an unparalleled movie-going experience. Whether choosing to shoot in 35 mm or 65 mm format, filmmakers continue to embrace film's ability to capture a level of visual information that digital cameras cannot yet achieve.
We see ourselves as partners in helping to maintain the quest for superior image acquisition. Our portfolio of Kodak 65mm films is just one of many ways we support the ambitious visions of these filmmakers. We are always intrigued by the creative ways that filmmakers find to make their projects impactful. Their aesthetic endeavors push creative boundaries. From the small gauge to the large format, film matters. And we are pleased that Kodak products and services are a "big" part of the process.
Expert industry opinions, recent news and happenings, anything shareworthy within the film community will be delivered to your inbox regularly.

BUFORD - A semi trailer carrying medical supplies tumbled on Interstate 85 as part of a seven-vehicle wreck that tangled the roadway for hours late Thursday.Two semis and five passenger cars were involved in the 9:42 p.m. pileup in the northbound lanes of I-85 north of Hamilton Mill Road in Buford. Two passengers in the cars were injured and both were transported to Gwinnett Medical Center. Neither of the injuries were considered life-threatening, said Fire Department spokesman Capt. Thomas Rutledge. The cause of the crash is under investigation. One semi tipped on its side, spilling about 125 gallons of diesel fuel from a ruptured tank, he said. "The fuel has been contained and does not pose any environmental hazard at this time," Rutledge said. The crash closed both I-85 lanes near the Spout Springs Road bridge for about two hours. Rutledge was unable to provide an update on the victims' conditions Friday due to federal patient privacy laws, he said. In an unrelated incident Thursday night, a semi transporting vehicles burst into flames in the southbound lanes of I-85 near Indian Trail Road. The 11:30 p.m. fire scorched the semi and five vehicles on board, but no injuries were reported, said Rutledge. The cause of that fire was also under investigation Friday.

So I've scoured the forums looking for my exact problem but to no avail. I am trying to connect my wifi hotspot to my ps3 to watch netflix basically. I can get the wifi connected from phone to computer with no problem (thats what im using now). However, when i scan my PS3 for wifi signals, the only thing thats comes up are the usual wifi signals from the neioghbors. I've tried all the settings i can find on the web but nothing works, like changing device info to Optimus 2 and softap. I'm using a rooted Nexus with the Wifi tether app. under Settings, Change device, i dont see my phone make or madel. Maybe that has something to do with it. I have no idea... Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Every summer, dogs die from being left in hot cars. People don't realize how quickly a car can become an oven -- on a mild summer day, temperatures inside the car can get over 100 degrees in half an hour or less, even with the window cracked. In the time it takes to run into a store, a dog left in a hot car can suffer from heatstroke and could be dead before her owner returns to the parking lot.
If more people know about the dangers of hot cars, fewer dogs will die this summer.
I love Subaru's "Dog Tested, Dog Approved" commercials. If this dog-loving company created a commercial with a message warning people not to leave their dogs in the car, it could reach countless dog owners and save lives.
I love my Subaru, and appreciate all the ways the company has already shown how it cares about dogs. Join me in asking them to use their fun and creative "Dog Tested, Dog Approved" ads to get out an important, life-saving message about the dangers of hot cars.
As you may know, every year, dogs die from being left in hot cars over the summer. Many people don't realize how quickly temperatures rise inside cars, even with the windows cracked. On an 80 degree day, the interior temperature can reach 99 degrees in just 10 minutes, and 109 degrees in 20 minutes -- in the time it takes to run an errand, it can become an oven for pets left in the car.
Dogs are particularly susceptible to heat stroke, since they can only cool themselves by panting and through the pads of their feet. Within minutes of being left in a hot car, they can begin to suffer heart problems, brain damage, liver damage, nerve damage, and even death
I love Subaru's "Dog Tested, Dog Approved" commercials. If one of these ads warned people not to leave their dogs in the car, it could save countless lives this summer.
Please create one of your fun and creative "Dog Tested, Dog Approved" commercials to help get out the important message about not leaving dogs in hot cars.

Mass layoff events and initial claims down in February 2010
March 30, 2010
In February, employers took 1,570 mass layoff actions that resulted in the separation of 155,718 workers, seasonally adjusted, as measured by new filings for unemployment insurance benefits during the month.
The number of mass layoff events in February fell by 191 from the prior month, and the number of associated initial claims decreased by 26,543. Both events and initial claims have decreased in 5 out of the last 6 months.
In February, 376 mass layoff events were reported in the manufacturing sector, seasonally adjusted, resulting in 43,100 initial claims.. In not seasonally adjusted terms, the manufacturing sector accounted for 24 percent of all mass layoff events and 30 percent of initial claims filed in February 2010. A year earlier, manufacturing made up 42 percent of events and 47 percent of initial claims.
During the 27 months from December 2007 through February 2010, the total number of mass layoff events was 55,309, and the associated number of initial claims was 5,580,819.
These data are from the Mass Layoffs Statistics program. December 2007 was the start of a recession as designated by the National Bureau of Economic Research. Each action involved at least 50 people from a single employer. To learn more, see "Mass Layoffs—February 2010" (HTML) (PDF), news release USDL–10–0362.

MS Basketball: Smokey Road able to upend defending champ Evans
By CHRIS GOLTERMANN
Much like the rest of the Coweta County Middle School Athletic League's boys basketball lineups during the 2013 season, the Smokey Road Wildcats hadn't been able to figure out how to pull out a victory against unbeaten the Evans Cougars.
The Wildcats suffered a 19-point loss at midyear and were beaten by the Cougars again by nine to close the regular season schedule.
They finally got it Friday with a thrilling 37-35 overtime victory to deny Evans its second straight CCMSAL title in what also became the second consecutive tournament to see an unbeaten top-seeded lineup be foiled come playoff time.
Jarrell Rosser finished with a team-high 14 points and teammate Nick Parks added 10 — including all eight of Smokey Road's third-quarter total — to help the No. 2 seeded Wildcats, coached by Corey Searcy and Shawn Atkinson, pull off the upset in front of a packed gym at Evans Middle while completing an 9-3 championship season.
Scoring first and taking the tempo right to the Cougars on the boards to build on a 14-11 halftime lead, the Wildcats began the extra session the same way, scoring the first four points on A.J. Robinson's steal at midcourt and a a jump shot by teammate Jarrrell Rosser to keep all the pressure on Evans (11-1).
In the end, the Cougars couldn't execute down one with less than 30 seconds to play by allowing Smokey Road to run nearly the entire clock before deciding to foul with 1.9 left.
Rosser sank the last of his six points off free throws — on a night where the Wildcats were 15 of 21 from the line — and a desperation heave by Evans from nearly the length of the floor went wide of the rim to end a game between opposing players that could soon enough become teammates at nearby Newnan High.
(To view photos from this game, please visit http://photos.times-herald.com/mycapture and click on Sports to view the Photo Gallery.)
Cougar point guard Josh Anthony, en route to a team-high 14 point effort of his own, managed to keep his team in the game after nearly single-handedly bringing Evans back from an early 20-13 deficit late in the third quarter. Evans finished with three more field goals than its opponent but struggled at the line, hitting 6 of 14 attempts in the game.
Anthony banked a 3-pointer coming off a previous free throw to pull Evans back to within one before Smokey Road's bench called time. The Wildcats, though, were able to push the ball up the floor with the Cougars searching for a steal, protecting it long enough to have Evans' strategy backfire.
It was a tough ending for the Cougars after fighting back from a seven-point deficit with three minutes left in the third quarter, with the tempo picking up offensively after each team managed just a single field goal in the second period.
While Parks helped push Smokey Road ahead with eight of his 12 points in the third, Anthony converted back-to-back layups to close a 6-0 Evans run over a span of a minute that pulled the Cougars back to within 20-19 late in the third. Klyndell Johnson's spin move opened the spurt before Tyrell Harris helped convert a Smokey Road turnover by finding Anthony underneath.
Anthony then stole the ball off the ensuing Wildcat inbounds and scored to make it a one-point game.
Trailing 22-20 to open the final period, Evans kept its momentum with a 7-0 run, tying the game on Dre Parks' 3-pointer and getting a pair of baskets in transition off missed attempts by Smokey Road.
The Wildcats, though, answered with a six-point outburst of their own in the final 2:32 of regulation to help force overtime, with Parks and Robinson sinking four consecutive free throws sandwiched in between Rosser's steal and ensuing basket off an Evans inbounds pass.

(Doug Pensinger/Getty Images)Dan Haren, who was bought out by the Los Angeles Angels in November for $3.5 million, is heading to the nation's capital.Haren reportedly signed a 1-year, $13 million contract with the Washington Nationals on Tuesday, according to a tweet from FOX baseball reporter Ken Rosenthal.Haren, 32, was almost on his way to the Chicago Cubs in a trade that would've sent Carlos Marmol to the Angels. He ultimately had his $15.5 million option declined by the Angels but will likely make more money now in the long run because of said buyout and this new deal with the Nats. The team will now have in its rotation Stephen Strasburg, Gio Gonzalez, Ross Detwiler, Jordan Zimmermann and Haren.He has posted a 3.48 ERA and has pitched more than 200 innings in several seasons throughout his career, although injuries derailed him last year; because of back and hip problems, he was limited to 177 innings and an ERA of 4.33, the worst of his career. When healthy, however, Haren, a three-time All-Star, flies under the radar as one of the best pitchers in baseball. https://twitter.com/Ken_Rosenthal/status/275993952170172416 Promoted Stories Comments

Alex Hall studies the climate system from both regional and global perspectives as a professor in the UCLA Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences. Before participating in a panel on learning to live with climate change, he talked awkward cocktail party questions, his butterfly stroke, and ugly hand-me-down furniture in the Zócalo green room.
Q:What's your favorite thing about Los Angeles?
A:The way it's changing and developing. It seems like it's becoming a much more sustainable city. The burgeoning public transit network here is exciting, and the development of new neighborhoods that are now walkable is a lot of fun. I like the direction that L.A. is heading.
Q:How are you different from who you were 10 years ago?
A:I would say that my life is much better defined. When you're in your late 20s and early 30s, you're still really scrambling to define yourself. And I think when you reach where I am now—I'm 41—you kind of feel like your life is very defined, and you know exactly what you'll be doing for quite a while.
Q:What's the craziest question you've ever been asked about climate change?
A:There's a question that comes up a lot at drunken cocktail parties, which is, "Are we totally screwed?" I never know how to answer that. Partially because I'm usually drunk myself but also because that's very open-ended.

Something old, something new
Recycle a phone book into a pencil organizer
Spring is finally approaching, and with it comes a familiar sound… the thud of a new phone book landing on the front porch. In our area, Jo and I are inundated with as many as 4 or 5 new phone books every Spring, from different publishers all trying to compete in the advertising biz. Of course nobody needs that many phone books, and I usually just toss all but one of them in the recycling bin, but this year I decided to try to upcycle one of them into something fun. I managed to turn one into a quirky and unique pen/pencil organizer that's a real conversation piece on my desk!

- In the early 1990's, there was a Disability Short Term – students would take on a disability (usually they opted to be either blind, deaf, or confined to leg braces/a wheelchair) for the entirety of the Short Term, and gain a new perspective on life at Bates, and would take trips to more urban and more rural places to gain a broader perspective. They didn't claim to understand what it was like to be disabled, as they knew their 'disability' had a set end-date, but did it rather as a learning experience. Students also compiled videos for the admissions department to educate perspective students about life at Bates.
- In the mid-1990's, a group met several times to work on issues of accessibility at Bates, and produced a brochure, were able to add a paragraph on disability to the Viewbook. A TTY phone number was also set up in admissions, although it is unknown if any current admissions employees are trained to operate it.
- In the late 1990's, Patricia Murphy was named Director of Physical Plant, and took the initiative to ramp a few campus buildings every summer. She is no longer the director.
- Shawn Draper, Class of 1998, was one of the first disabled students to enroll in Bates (a few became disabled while students). He faced a lot of difficulties in getting around campus, and did a lot of work to raise awareness of inaccessibility at Bates. The back page of the Bates Student (the former home of Question on the Quad) once featured photos of him in front of every building he was unable to get into, and he organized a boycott of the 1997 Harvest Dinner to raise awareness about the discrepancy between Bates's claims that it doesn't have the funds to make buildings inaccessible, and the fact that they have the funds for lavish events such as the Harvest Dinner. He wrote a front-page article for the Bates student entitled "How Bates College disabled me," wrote a letter to then-president Harward, and was featured in the Sun Journal. An article about the Harvest Dinner protest appeared the Winter 1998 edition of the Bates Magazine.

BOSTON, MA - Suffolk University had been selected by The Princeton Review as one of "The Best 357 Colleges" for undergraduate education in North America. The University will join the exclusive group of institutions profiled in Princeton Review's 2005 edition of "The Best 357 Colleges."
"We select schools for the guide based on our knowledge of them, on data we review about them, and on the opinions of students and parents we talk to and survey," said Robert Franek, assistant vice president for guidebook publishing at the The Princeton Review, who said Suffolk University is among "the cream of the crop" for undergraduate education. Only about ten percent of the colleges in America, and only two Canadian colleges are in the book.
The Princeton Review citation is one of many recent accolades for Suffolk University. The University was among eight institutions selected to receive an award for its international programs from NAFSA: Association of International Educators. Suffolk was cited in part for its campuses in Madrid and Dakar, which were seen as unique in welcoming both local and U.S. students, providing a model for other campuses as they work toward internationalization.
During the past few years, Suffolk has been named one of Barron's "Best Buys in College Education" and was selected as one of the "Best 201 Colleges For The Real World." The Princeton Review listed Suffolk as one of the "Best Northeastern Colleges," and its 2005 edition of The Best Business Schools will include the Sawyer School of Management.
Suffolk University, located on Boston's historic Beacon Hill, with campuses in Madrid, Spain and Dakar, Senegal (Africa), is a comprehensive global institution distinguished by its teaching and the intellectual contributions of its faculty. Suffolk offers a wide range of undergraduate and graduate programs in more than 70 areas of study. Its mission is to provide quality education at a reasonable cost for students of all ages and backgrounds, with strong emphasis on diversity. Suffolk has a combined enrollment of more than 7,000 full-time and part-time students at its Law School, College of Arts and Sciences and Sawyer School of Management.
