SAINT LEO, Fla. – Late heroics from the Southeastern University offense stunned the Saint Leo baseball team, Wednesday night at Thomas B. Southard Stadium. After a four-hour campaign and seven runs in the top of the ninth inning, the Lions' squad (7-3) fell to the visiting Southeastern Fire (9-6) by a 12-10 score.
Junior RHP Tyrone Miller took the mound for the beginning of the contest, tossing just one inning and allowing no runs on one hit. By design, the Lions' would pitch a different pitcher in nearly every inning of the matchup. At the end of the day, the Saint Leo pitching staff allowed 12 runs on 11 hits and 10 walks. Junior Liam O'Sullivan picked up the loss.
The Fire took the lead early in the game, picking up a run in the top of the second after Southeastern batters earned three walks with two outs to load the bases. A Saint Leo passed ball gave them the opportunity to score.
The Lions retaliated in the bottom of the inning when junior Nick Perez recorded an RBI single to score freshman Dylan Harris.
Southeastern tacked on another run in the top of the 3rd but Saint Leo would take the 3-2 lead in the bottom of the inning thanks to a 2 RBI double from junior Bobby Twitty.
After a balk in the bottom of the fourth gave the Lions a 4-2 lead, a two-run homerun by Southeastern's Carlos Guzman made it a tie ballgame in the top of the fifth.
Despite an RBI single from the Fire in the top of the sixth to take the lead, a clutch 2 RBI single from the Lions' Zach Daley gave Saint Leo the momentum needed to go ahead. Another RBI single in the bottom of the seventh from freshman Alex Mata allowed for a two-run lead in favor of the Lions.
After holding the Fire scoreless in the eighth, the Lions returned for the bottom of the inning ready to score some more. After Nick Perez singled and stole two consecutive bases, an RBI single from Taylor Perez plated Nick Perez to put Saint Leo up by three. The next batter, senior Fran Whitten, then launched a two-run homerun well over the right-centerfield fence for a five-run lead.
In an unexpected turn of events, Southeastern put their bats together and combined for seven runs in the top of the ninth inning to take a 12-10 lead, and eventually, the win. A sacrifice fly, two singles, a triple, a homerun, and two free bases gave the Fire all the runs they would need, as the Lions went three up, three down in the bottom of the ninth.
As a team, the Lions earned 14 hits in the contest, recording eight earned runs and three walks.
The Saint Leo baseball team will return to action on Friday, February 28 when they host the visiting Palm Beach Atlantic Sailfish on Academic Appreciation Night. First pitch is set to be thrown out at 6:00 p.m.

Analiza eficienţei activităţii de cercetare dezvoltare inovare prin metoda DEA
[The Efficency Analysis Of R&D Activities By Using Dea]
By this paper we intend to analyze the existing gap in the efficiency of R&D investment, at European level. The method employed in this respect is Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). The evaluation of the performance in R&D in European countries, in terms of technical efficiency (TE) thus constitutes the main goal of this research. Small European economies (i.e. Luxemburg and Sweden) have high levels of research efficiency, while some of the larger ones, namely, United Kingdom, France, and Spain, show lower TE scores. Romania is characterized by a very low rate of knowledge production, suggesting that they are still in the phase of imitating and replicating existing technologies, while only little effort made to innovate.

Preservation society sets sights on former landmark McKeesport hotel
McKeesport Preservation Society said it has taken steps to start a $5 million capital campaign to renovate the Penn-McKee Hotel.
"That's what it takes to restore a 99-room hotel, to turn it back into a hotel," said Maryann Huk, director of the society that claims title to the long-closed hotel along Fifth Avenue near the Palisades and Marina at McKees Point.
On its mckeesportpreservation.org website there is a link to "Fundrise Handbuilt City," the organization that will handle what organizers call a "crowdfunding" project. "Crowdfunding" is a practice of seeking contributions from a large number of people, usually over the Internet.
In a news release issued last week, the society said it will work with Chicago-based real estate developer Nathaniel Zorach on a plan "to stabilize and renovate the historic hotel."
Zorach was connected to the society through a concept known as Fundrise, based in Washington.
"Fundrise is the number one website for funding for real estate development," said Alan Diede, a volunteer working with the society. "The main thing is that it creates a pathway to generate the interest and the ability to get serious, interested parties working toward developing the property."
Diede prepared the society's news release.
In it the society said Zorach's company, The Handbuilt City, is among a handful on the Fundrise platform specifically focused on urban revitalization.
"Crowdfunding is the investor's equivalent of a Kickstarter or Indiegogo," Huk said, referring to two other community-oriented websites.
Indiegogo claims it is "distributing millions of dollars every week to campaigners around the world," while Kickstarter describes itself as "a vibrant community of people working together to bring new things to life."
Huk said Kickstarter aided Kevin Sousa in Braddock. There he's seeking to turn Superior Motors, a former car dealership, into a farm-to-table, community-influenced restaurant he hopes to open in February.
Braddock Mayor John Fetterman owns the building and is providing it free of charge. More than 2,000 people donated to his Kickstarter campaign while Sousa raised more than $300,000, including $40,000 from the Heinz Endowments slated for job training.
"We were searching for potential real estate developers who might be interested in working with us," Diede said.
Huk said Zorach toured the long-closed hotel on July 28.
The Penn-McKee was a landmark in the days when McKeesport was among the largest cities in Pennsylvania. As former Daily News librarian Gerry Jurann wrote in a 2005 "Bygone Days" column, "if it happened in McKeesport" from 1926 until 1968, "it probably was at the Penn-McKee."
On April 21, 1947, two future presidents, U.S. Reps. John Kennedy, D-Mass., and Richard Nixon, R-Calif., squared off there over proposed changes in federal labor law in an annual gathering of the Junto, a group of city businessmen interested in politics and economics. A state historical marker outside the hotel recalls that debate.
In recent years the building was owned by SeeBee Inc., which bought it in 1985 for $25,500, according to the Allegheny County real estate website.
Redevelopment Authority of the City of McKeesport is listed by the county as having taken the building on Jan. 4, 2011.
Huk referred questions about that ownership history to her attorney William Bresnahan, who could not be reached for comment.
On its website, the society describes itself as "a nonprofit 501 (C) 3 organization passionate about its mission to preserve and restore the historic architecture and urban fabric of McKeesport and the lower Mon Valley."
In its release, the society said Zorach was "excited to work on a project that can call attention to the tremendous assets offered by a town like McKeesport."
Zorach was quoted by the society as comparing McKeesport to Brooklyn, N.Y.
"Distressed real estate in so-called 'up-and-coming' parts of Brooklyn is going for hundreds of dollars a foot versus pennies on the dollar in McKeesport, but how can you beat this view?" Zorach said.
The society said he stood on a bicycle trail and observed the hills around the Monongahela River as well as former U.S. Steel National Tube Works structures.
According to its website, The Handbuilt City has a mission "to seek creative and profitable solutions for urban innovation," particularly so far in Gary, Ind., and St. Louis.
"Focusing principally on affordable housing development through the stabilization of distressed neighborhoods, we envision a regional effort to advance standards for design, community investment, and green building across the Midwest," The Handbuilt City states as its mission. "We are backed by diverse sources of capital and diverse private equity partners and are ourselves investors, craftsmen, technicians, designers and problem-solvers."
On its website Fundrise touts "a simple goal," to "give everyone the opportunity to invest in real estate."
Zorach told the society that he is confident that a critical mass of interested parties could bring some serious momentum and capital to development in the town.
"Regulations and markets are going to keep evolving, but cities are, too," Zorach said. "So it's important for smaller cities to remain just as involved to keep up."

Wall Street had already seen a flood of dot-com businesses looking to go public in the late 90s, and when they did issue IPOs, the staggering market capitalizations made some nebulous companies, like TheGlobe.com, temporary market heavyweights.
But the bubble burst, as investors pulled out of companies that promised cool offices and high burn rates and shifted into actual revenue and profit-generating businesses.

Gore Park Pedestrianization Initiative
David asked a good question on twitter that requires more than 140 characters in response: Why are delivery vehicles allowed on the south leg of King between Hughson & James?
Well, in general, our original objective was to limit deliveries to outside of the promenade hours, then completely close the road to traffic during event times. This became operationally challenging, requiring staff to set up and remove barricades daily, as well as trying to ensure any parked vehicles would be cleared prior to the promenade hours. Not easily enforced. There was also the complication that emergency vehicles should also be granted access 24/7 so barriers would need to be designed to be easily moved in the event of an emergency. Finally, restricting deliveries to certain times of day did not work for all of the businesses, so the compromise was to install a sign at Hughson stating access for deliveries and emergency vehicles only. Planters, the ramp, and pedestrian activity are all part of the plan to make this space inconvenient for vehicles, while still allowing for deliveries that absolutely have to occur. We hope, as the summer progresses, delivery drivers will begin to understand the best times of day for ease of access.

Nov 16, 2012 - Tina Haight, RivertonEditor:
Let me say that I agree absolutely and 100 percent with Mr. Steven R. Peck's editorial opinion on lowering the speed limit to 30 mph on West Main in Riverton all the way out to College View Drive, past the stoplight ,and right up to Hill Street. There is a lot of traffic there now, what with the hospital, the career center, the high school, the middle school, Brunton and the new street setup leading into the college campus. And there is lots of residential around there too.
To tell the truth, I think you could argue that the 30 mph could be kept in effect clear out to the airport turnoff, which is about where the city limits start.
With all this talk about highway safety at the other end of town at Honor Farm Road, the West Main part is even busier, with lots more places where people are slowing down and turning, including school buses.
If little Shoshoni can start the 30 mph speed limit while you're still out in the country, Riverton should have 30 mph well farther out on West Main than is there now.

The irony of reality never fails to amaze me. Scheme (and functional languages in general) are good enough to use, but not good enough to let it be known that they are used.

Cuzei was an ancient state along the Eärdur in western Eretald. The capital was Eleisa. The language of the state was Cuêzi. The religion was Cuzeian theism, wich later turned into Arašát, the religion of the Arašei.
Etymology: Cuêzi Cuêzaye, cognate to Karazi, Caď. Cuezaie, Ver. Cuzei, Ismaîn Kuzaȥe, Bar. Kezach, Ax. Kuzaye, X. Xuzay, Ṭeôši Šuzäye.
In the fourth century before the founding of Ctesifon the Easterners invaded both Eretald and Xengiman, disrupting the civilizations they found there, and instigating chains of movement which would take centuries to finish. The invaders of Eretald were the Central and the Cuzeian peoples; the latter were clearly dominant. Like the Ezičimi in Xengiman, they retained as much of the governmental machinery of the conquered people as they could find, though the Cuzeians, already believers in Iáinos, made no attempt to take over the institutions of Monkhayu paganism. The invaders had a more hierarchical bent than the Monkhayu; their Empire of Metayu (proclaimed in -375) was rather more organized than any Monkhayic state. The name comes of course from Meťaiu; as it was the first kingdom they encountered, the Cuzeians applied its name to the whole of Eretald.
The Cuzeians pressed on to the Eärdur, where they founded the kingdoms of Cayenas (-360), Sūās (-355), and Eleisa (-350). In their early years these kingdoms would have consisted of a barbarian élite ruling a peasantry of different culture and language; the bulk of the Cuzeian peoples were still concentrated along the Svetla.
Over the next few centuries the Cuzeians migrated into the valley of the Eärdur (which they called the Isrēica), and cleaned up the Monkhayic states now appearing in the southwest, founded by Monkhayic lords fleeing the barbarian onslaught. The Central tribes would settle in the center and east of Eretald, and the pure Monkhayu were pushed to the north. A huge number of Monkhayu, however, must have stayed in place, learning the invaders' language and interbreeding with them. Unlike the Ezičimi, the northern tribes had no great consciousness of race; Monkhayu who learned their languages could be completely assimilated.
This is the time in which the Cuzeian epics are set: a time of many kings, frequent war, and bronze weapons, into which the chivalry and orthodoxy of two centuries hence were retrofitted.
The Calesiōre clan of Eleisa organized the Cuzei as a state around -250, uniting the Cuzeian states along the Eärdur, except for Sūās.

Much of the Book of Eleď deals with the early years of Cuzei. Cuzei was always in theory what it actually was at this time, a league of independent Lords (namō) whose king (narrûos) was only first among equals, and acquired absolute authority only in wartime.
Economic activity in other regions at this time was either individual (you grew something or made something for your own benefit) or governmental (rulers managed production to benefit their own class or the people as a whole). In Cuzei there was an unusual emphasis on community action. The planting, harvesting, and distribution of grain, for instance, was viewed as a task of the community as a whole. The basic organization of society was feudal: you owed your lord certain traditional duties or goods; he in turn was responsible for your protection and general well-being.
Religiously, the Cuzeians were followers of a single god, worshipped under the triple aspects of Iáinos, Eīledan, and Ulōne. Unlike the Monkhayu, the Cuzeians actively sought out the wisdom of the ilii. We have a record of an amusing correspondance between a Cuzeian prince and an iliu lord: the Cuzeian offers to drive the Monkhayic invaders out of Davrio; the iliu explains that the ilii vacated "Laiuën" voluntarily.
The earliest Cuzeian records date from about -200. The Cuzeians apparently learned writing from the ilii, since they were certainly illiterate when they invaded Eretald, and their script bears no relation to that of the Wede:i. It isn't much like ilian script, either; the best arguments for the ilian connection are the Cuzeians' own testimony, their known intercourse with the ilii, and the fact that both scripts are alphabetic (unlike any other human script, the Cuzeian never went through a logographic or syllabic phase).
Golden Age
The time from 104 to 440 is usually seen as the Golden Age of Cuzei. The state tended to become stronger over time; in the time of Beretos (260-340) it operated as an aristocracy. However, the first market economy on Almea developed in Cuzei during this time, too. In the first century some of the larger Houses (aurē), and some of the growing cities, had moved first to an abstraction of the feudal duties, and then to a true cash-based economy. Credit-based might be more accurate, as transactions were recorded not by the exchange of money but by recording units of work in the House's books. In the cities there was a tendency to use mediums of exchange-- pigs, chickens, silver, spices, and wine were early choices. Within a century or two, almost every village had its market, specialized craftsmen multiplied, and the cities boomed.
Previously, trade had been handled at the governmental level: when a deal could be worked out, one chief bartered goods with another; if not, the goods could be acquired by war, or by colonization. The first individual traders came from Cuzei. As among the ancient Greeks, earning one's living this way-- aiming for a profit instead of an even exchange-- was considered base and immoral. Cuzei never quite came to admire traders, but trading accounted for an ever-larger proportion of its economy. (The practice was also taken up by the Caďinorians and, more enthusiastically, by the Monkhayu.)
Cuzei absorbed the other "High Cuzeian" state of Sūās in 104, which is generally taken to be the start of the Golden Age. (Sūās is remembered today in the name of the Nansuael swamp, a partial translation of guiscue lacatosuuele, North Sūās Swamp.)
All round its borders Cuzei could ponder a world which revolved around itself. The Nimoicu and Lovitrui, whom they called Little Cuzeians (we call them the Karazi, after their name in their own language), and the other Eastern kingdoms in Eretald owed it sovereignty de jure; nor was this power always nominal. These same peoples, and the rudimentary Cadhinorian states of Araunicoros and of the Scadrorionit (Ver. Šadoroi) (along the middle Svetla) conducted their business in Cuêzi.
Iron working began in Cuzei around 200. This increased the military predominance of the Cuzeians; if they did not create a larger empire it was only because they saw no need for one. They valued the pretense that all Eretald was united under the narrûos; but they had no stomach for actually ruling the impoverished primitives around them.
The only bleak spot in the picture was Munkhâsh. The Munkhâshi had begun to get the upper hand in their battles with the Monkhayu, and by 250 they had extended their borders to the Ctelm (Gaumê) Mountains at the edge of Eretald. In 287 began the mission of Beretos to the court of the Caďinorian baron Berak, who held the Taucrēte Pass against the Munkhâshi. Within four years his mission had failed, and the Munkhâshi established a small military presence in Berak's castle. In the land of Babblers, Beretos' subsequent written apology for his mission and indictment of Cuzei's arrogant "barbarian" policy, is one of our most important documents on early Caďinorian civilization (and a very honest depiction of contemporary Cuzei).
The Cuzeians had a vibrant urban life, with merchants, artists, and shopkeepers in addition to the lords, administrators, priests, soldiers and craftsmen that could be found in the cities of other cultures of the time; with Eleisa, they boasted the largest city on the continent. The cities belonged to no noble House; in a sense their inhabitants were the first truly free men in Ereláe. The tendency in Cuzei was for the cities to grow but not to become more numerous, perhaps because all the land outside the cities belonged to some House or another.
Silver Age
For over a hundred years the failure to secure the Taucrēte Pass seemed to have no evil consequences. Then, in 440, the Munkhâshi poured through the gap, and within fifteen years had occupied half of Eretald.
Their advance was facilitated by two military innovations: the newfound ability to ride a horse in battle, offering superior mobility over the chariot; and use of iron weapons-- a trick the Cuzeians had never shared with their Caďinorian wards.
The Demon Realm found that there was no question of making the Caďinorians and Monkhayu compliant slaves. These were not mesolithic primitives, impressed by the bounty of wheat, like the first human subjects of Munkhâsh had been; they could only be put down by merciless repression. Brutality and terror, then, were the order of the day. Between 440 and 500 over 5 million Monkhayu and Caďinorians were sacrificed on the battlefield, or on the altars of the Munkhâshi gods.
Almost all of the Central tribes were conquered, but no Cuzeian, High or Low, ever bowed the knee to Munkhâsh. It was in fact Cuzei which halted the Munkhâshi advance, breaking the three-year seige of Eleisa in 458, and pushing the Munkhâshi back past the Svetla.
The ilii sent a legion of two thousand to the assistance of Cuzei-- a gesture which they have repeated for no other state. (Ervëa would receive the help, but not the command, of two hundred ilii in 1644.) This amount of ilii is quite significant, not least because the ilii possessed swords of steel, as well as mild explosives, based on black powder. The size of the human armies is more difficult to estimate, but reasonable estimates would be 200,000 for the Munkhâshi forces, 100,000 for the Cuzeian, and about the same number, but nowhere near as well-organized, for the Caďinorians.
The Munkhâshi invasion is taken as the start of Cuzei's Silver Age. The war required a strong central ruling hand and standing armies, big and not very welcome changes in Cuzeian eyes. Religion became more public and normative; at the same time the prophets were more denunciatory. Some took the rise of Munkhâsh as a sign that Iáinos was displeased; others, that Amnās (the chief of the demons) was struggling with Eīledan-- in any case, a time to be serious, pious, and patriotic. The excessive riches of some trading Houses was also deplored, as offenses against Cuzeian unity, and as being "built on nothing"-- merely moving goods around.
Around this time, Cuzei expanded to Lake Bérunor as part of a forward policy toward the Somoyi-Methelyi, whose pesky raids were a distraction from the eastern war.
For a century Cuzeians and Caďinorians struggled to push back the Munkhâshi, and had some sucesss; the Scadrorion states of Sisos and Sciael pushed them well away from the Svetla, the Monkhayu of Leziunea reoccupied the Mišicama coast, and the Cuzeians cleared the left bank of the Svetla of Munkhâshi, reorganizing it as Lācatur (`Northland'); it had been so depopulated by Munkhâshi terror that most of its new inhabitants were immigrant Caďinorians. The Monkhayu of the Kešvareni plateau rebelled in 550.
The long decline
Around 575 the ktuvoks took the offensive again. They reduced Sisos and Sciael in two years, moved on Eleisa but were fought back, and retook the mouth of the Svetla in 581. After this they suppressed the Monkhayu rebellion. Cuzei was alarmed. The general Maroūsias believed that unity against Munkhâsh should be pursued above all other goals; his speeches were met with only theoretical agreement. In 590, putting his program into effect, he invaded Dācuas. He continued with campaigns against the other Little Cuzeians; by 600 he had succeeded in uniting all the Cuzeian states except Nayas, and had even conquered the Caďinorian states of Cayenas and Duvondos.
In 601 he deposed the narrûos and named himself zîtenarrûos, or Emperor. But surely, some thought at the time, it did not please Iáinos that Cuzeians fought Cuzeians in the shadow of Munkhâsh, nor that free Cuzeian cities and Houses were subject to a general made emperor. Cuzei was at the height of its power, but to many Cuzeians it had fallen. Maroūsias' coup is taken as the end of Cuzei's Silver Age.
Once generals had gotten accustomed to the throne room, it was hard to make them leave. Rival emperor/generals started to split the Cuzeian empire, while Lācatur, Cayenas, and Duvondos reasserted their independence.
The middle Svetla, traditionally a patchwork of minor baronies, organized itself into the strong Caďinorian League, with its capital at Ctesifon. The Central states then forgot their respect for Cuzei. Araunicoros finally adapted the Cuêzi alphabet to write its own language, around 650; the Caďinorians followed half a century later. Both states also adopted the Cuzeian innovation, the market; lacking the communal and anti-trade mindset of the Cuzeians, they quickly proceeded to a roaring money economy.
For the last part of Cuzeian history, see the first sections of the article on the Arašei.

Midha Saleh offered 100 thousand US dollars to sing for Saddam Hussain
Egyptian singer Midhat Saleh received an offer from Iraqi president Saddam Hussain to hold five performances in Iraq for 100 thousand US dollars. Midhat accepted the offer despite the critical situation in the country with the possibility of war being high.
According to the Egyptian based daily, Al Gomhuria, Midhat is one of many signers who has received an offer from the Iraqi president to hold concerts for extremely high wages as a mean of persuading the singers to come to Iraq in such crucial times. Midhat traveled to Iraq and neglected a contract he has with producers of the play "Tara'iou", which he is taking part in and has a previous contract with, prompting them to file a lawsuit against him.
The singer did not show up for performance and had overlooked his prior agreement to act in the play, which he has a leading role in. the producers in turn had to reimburse the audience paying them back for their tickets. At this point the producers filed a complaint to the actors association for the negligence and irresponsibility of Midhat, demanding legal actions be taken against him for breaking the contract.
On a different note, Egyptian belly dancer Fifi Abdo also filed a lawsuit against Midhat for giving her checks without credit as a payback for money she had loaned him early last year. Fifi had filed the complaint in June 2002 after Midhat refused to pay her back the money by ignoring all her attempts to contact him.
Abdo had warned Midhat that she would take him to court if he did not return her money which totaled over one and a half million Egyptian pounds. Midhat had given the dancer three bad checks each for half a million Egyptian pound.
The court sentenced Midhat to three years of prison for counterfeiting, but he demanded a retrial of the case. Midhat told the court that he did not take the money from Abdo as a loan but instead it was an investment by her in his new recording studio. Midhat added that every investment has the possibility of loss or gain and that he should not be obliged to cover Fifi's losses. –Albawaba.com

Average Volume: 177,134
Volume % Change: 224% From a technical perspective, CMTL is soaring here on monster volume back above both its 50-day moving average of $30.75 and its 200-day moving average of $30.50. This move is pushing CMTL within range of triggering a near-term breakout trade. That trade will hit once CMTL takes out some near-term overhead resistance at $31.89 with high-volume. Traders should now look for long-biased trades as long as CMTL is holding its trend above its 50-day at $30.75, and then takes out $31.89 with high volume. Look for a sustained move or close above those levels with volume that's near or above 177,134 shares. If we get that action soon, CMTL could easily trend back toward its April high of $34.59. On the flipside, I would avoid this stock, or look for short-biased trades, if it were to close back below both its 50-day and 200-day with heavy volume.

Black is the first stage for the second Jet Black Wedding Feast, serving as a neutral zone.[1] The ship is deserted by everyone involved with the Jet Black Wedding Feast after the first stage ends, with the exception of Namanie Nienami.[2] The ship is ultimately cut in half by Namanie,[3] and begins to sink.[4]
The crew of the ship are all members of the Ge'hyoukai.[5]
The interior is mainly that of a regular military aircraft carrier.[6] However, it has an exquisite party dining room.[7]

THE ANGLER. VAN HOESEN v. THE ANGLER.
(District Court, E. D. New York.
March 13, 1894.)
A delay of over two years in attempting to assert a lien for damages for wrongful discharge of a pilot held to be a waiver thereof as against purchasers of the vessel who bought her while the lien claimant was suing the owner personally, without giving notice 'to the purchasers of an intention to hold the vessel, so that they had no opportunity for taking indemnity against the claim.
This was a libel by Francis Van Hoesen against the steamboat Angler, to enforce a lien for damages. Alexander & Ash, for libelant. Goodrich, Deady & GOodrich, for claimants. BENEDICT, District Judge. This is an action to enforce a lien on the steamboat Angler for damages arising from the dischargeoof the libelant from the service of the boat before the expiration of his term of service. The libelant was hired as pilot by the then owner of the boat, one Foster, on February 11, 1889, and on July 11, 1890, he was discharged by Foster. In October, 1890, the libel· ant sued Foster in the state court to recover the same demand here presented. In January, 1892, the steamboat was transferred to a corporation, who are now her owners. In December, 1892, the libelant obtained jUdgment against Foster in the state court, and on December 27, 1892, he filed his libel against the steamboat in this action. The proofs in regard to the transfer of the boat to the cor· poration warrant the conclusion that the claimants were bona fide purchasers for value. They purchased the steamboat with no notice that the libelant claimed to have a lien upon her, but with notice that he had sued the former owner for his demand. When the claimants purchased the boat they paid all outstanding debts presented, and the demand of the libelant would then have been paid if it had been presented. It was not presented, and instead it was prosecuted against Foster. Any sum recovered by the libelant in this action will be so much lost to the present owners, for they are without se· curity. Under these circumstances, I am of the opinion that the libelant should be to have waived his lien against the boat by allowing it to remain dormant for over two years. The cases cited by the libelant are clearly distinguishable from the present case. Here no excuse is given for the libelant's delay to prosecute his claim for over two years; and this delay is coupled with the fact that in the meantime he put his claim in suit against the owner, and gave no notice of an intention to hold the boat, and coupled with the further fact that by withholding such notice he deprived the claim· ants of the opportunity of seeing that his claim was paid at the time of the transfer of the boat or takillg indemnity against it. In such a case it would be inequitable to cause the claimants to pay the libelant's demand. The libel is accordingly dismissed, with costs.
S3 FEbERAL REPORTER. THE ALEXANDER BARKLEY. FLA:NNERY v. THE ALEXANDER BARKLEY. PENNSYLVANIA R. CO. v. SAME. (District Court, E. D. New York. February 2, 1894.)
.A default decree against a tug for damages caused to her tow by stranding is not conclusive of negligence on the part of the pilot in charge of the tug, so as to preclude him, after obtaining a decree against the tug for his 'wages, from denying such negligence in a contest between himself and the owner of the tow as to whose decree should be first paid out of the proceeds of the tug. A decree for pilot's wages is entitled to be first paid out of the proceeds of a tug, as against a decree for damages to her tow by stranding, where it appears that the stranding was not caused by the pilot's negligence, but by negligence of the tow's master.
vania Railroad Company, respectively, agains,t the steam tug Alexander Barkley. The cause was heard upon the quest,ion of the distribution of the proceeds of the tug. John A. Anderson, for Flannery. Robinson, Biddle & Ward, for Pennsylvania R. 00. BENEDICT, District Judge. John Flannery filed a libel against the tug Alexander Barklev to recover wages due him as pilot. He had a decree in his favor. by default. The Pennsylvania Railroad Company, owner of the schooner Gale, also filed a libel against the steam tug Alexander Barkley to recover damages caused by the negligence of the tug to the schooner Gale while in tow of the tug. In this suit, also, a decree was entered in favo'r of the libelant. The vessel having been sold. and the money in court being insufficient to pay both the decrees, the case comes before the court on the question of priority between the two decrees. On the part of the Pennsylvania Railroad, it is insisted that its cl'aim has a priority over the claim of the pilot, because the accident in question was caused by the negligence of Flannery at the time in charge of the tug as pilot. Reference was ordered to take testimony upon the question wh.ether the accident was caused by the fault of John Flannery. The reference was had, and the commissioner submitted the testimony, with the opinion that the accident was not caused by the negligence of John Flannery. It is now contended before the court that the Pennsylvania Railroad Company having obtained a decree of this court based upon an allegation of fault on the part of the steam tug Alexander Barkley, and it appearing that Flannery was in charge of the tug at the time, it is not open to be denied that the fault was the fault of John Elannery. But the decree obtained by the Pennsylvania Railroad Company by default is notCOonclusive upon John Flannery, and it was open to him, notwithstanding the

NEW YORK (Jan. 31)
Protest rallies marking the fifth anniversary of Hitler's accession to power on Jan. 30, 1933, were held last night or scheduled for other days this week in a number of cities throughout the country.
Approximately 4,000 persons packed Carnegie Hall in a rally sponsored by the Non-Sectarian Anti-Nazi League, with hundreds more turned away for lack of space. Thousands more gathered in the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. Other meetings were scheduled in Detroit, Cleveland and elsewhere.
Meanwhile, 2,000 Germans attended a mass meeting in the Yorkville Casino at which Dr. Hans Borchers, German Consul-General, justified Nazism and attributed the "Jewish question" to "Jewish ambition," which, he said, had called out repression.
Ten thousand persons gathered in Los Angeles, according to the Anti-Nazi League, heard Eddie Cantor, Dorothy Parker, Representative Jerry O'Connell of Montana and Dr. Lechner of the American Legion, among other speakers.
Speakers at the Carnegie Hall meeting included William E. Dodd, former Ambassador to Germany; Representative Hamilton Fish, Jeremiah T. Mahoney, Prof. Franz Boas, Vito Marcantonio, Ludwig Renn, Heinz Liepmann and Dr. William E. Taylor, Negro leader.
Mayor LaGuardia sent a message in which he declared that the extension of Nazism "is creating a grave menace to the peace of the world" and declared that all friends of democracy must unite "to stem the tide of reaction and assure the establishment of democracy and freedom in the world."
Representative Fish declared that "the inhuman and brutal treatment of the Jews in Rumania has shocked the American people." He urged Congress to consider asking President Roosevelt to "make an appropriate protest and remonstrance to the Rumanian Government." He called upon Secretary of State Hull to accept the precedent of the protest in 1872 by Secretary of State Hamilton Fish, Mr. Fish's grandfather, against persecution of Jews in Rumania.
Prof. Boas, urging defense of intellectual freedom against the encroachments of Nazism, demanded that American students not be sent to Germany and that German students not be helped to come here, and "if they do come, we should see to it that their propaganda is properly counteracted."
Dr. Dodd, who, the chairman explained, was not feeling well, limited himself merely to expressing the hope that the audience could do something to aid world peace. Later, speaking by telephone to the Los Angeles meeting, he said that the one chance "of keeping the peace and saving democracy is for all democratic countries to cooperate in economic matters, applying pressure to bear upon people who are forced into undeclared wars and stringently applying boycotts against governments which violate solemn treaties."
Mr. Mahoney urged further support of the anti-Nazi boycott.

Nanny Cam are becoming more and more popular because of their proven effectiveness in identifying abusive nannies and babysitters. Without a nanny cam in place, parents will never know for sure how their children are actually getting taken care of.
More parents are considering using hidden in-home surveillance devices to watch their child's caregiver. Counter Spy Shops, an international retail chain, reports a 25 percent increase in sales of these devices--often called "nanny cam,"--over the past five years. But is it a good idea...or an invasion of privacy? Before you make this decision, consider the following:
Advantages of Using a Nanny Cam
There are a variety of cameras available on the market today. Most are wireless and can be hidden in almost any type of household item from a plant to a stuffed animal. And the prices vary too from about $100 for a basic camera offering remote computer access to more than $500 for digital systems, which can send video images live via computer or cell phone. Peace of mind and confidence in child care are reasons why some families opt to "spy" on their child's provider.
Disadvantages of Using a Nanny Cam
Studies and polls show that many care providers are not necessarily against video taping of child-provider interaction, it's just that they want to know about it. It seems to be a matter of trust and feeling of deception.
* Nanny Cams May Leave Home Exposed
Other Uses For In-Home Surveillance
Spy cams can be used for many other reasons than just child care. The device can be used while your home is being cleaned, for occasional in-home sitter services, and for security reasons. However, spy shops indicate the leading reason continues to be to monitor care providers.
What Do Providers Think About Nanny Cam?
Do providers support the use of video cameras? While media stories have focused on potential abuse and inattention being reasons parents should consider using a nanny cam, some sitters have indicated a camera can provide a positive connection with the families while at work. The rub seems to be when care providers are secretly taped. Some parents handle the situation by telling a potential care provider upfront that a nanny cam will be used so that they can feel comfortable and confident about their child's care. It's then up to the provider to accept or decline the position with a family who uses a nanny cam.
Is It Legal To Use A Hidden Camera?
It is indeed legal in all 50 states to use a hidden camera. However, it is illegal to record speech without a person's consent in the following 15 states: California, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, Oregon, Pennyslvania, and Washington.
Are More Daycares Starting To Use Cameras?
More daycare centers are installing cameras and even provide parents with the ability to spot check and watch their child while at work. Some facilities provide parents with a realtime access to watch happenings in their child's classroom via the internet. Parents report that while they often don't use it all the time, it's nice to be able to log in and check on their child whenever they desire.

I think ur right. I have not had much luck finding tools at yard sales. Pawn Shops and resale shop have not worked at all. I guess yard selling is the answer
Put a WTB (want to buy) ad up in craigslist. Pass out flyers. Go door to door if you have to. You are basically a "picker". Ever watch that show American Pickers? You can learn a lot from what they do. I wouldn't limit your sales to just tools(learn as much as you can about tools) but also branch out into other areas-bicycles or some antiques cars, sports cards etc. (You just need to do your homework.)
If you see garage sales listed in the paper or on Craigslist, I'd try to make some phone calls first (If possible). Save your gas and time at every opportunity. Those are going to be 2 of your biggest costs.
You are in customer relations more than you realize. If you call an individual and just blow them away with kindness on the phone, they more than likely will help you out.

The development of the first gel-permeation chromatograph is closely connected with Jim Waters, the founder and for 20-years the leader of Waters Associates. However, his merit is not restricted to this single product line. By the end of the 1960s, he succeeded in becoming a major player in the meteorically growing field of LC, transforming his company into "the Liquid Chromatography People." Both achievements can be characterized as true milestones in the evolution of chromatography.In October, Jim Waters is celebrating his 80th birthday. As a tribute to his many contributions to chromatography instrumentation, the present "Milestones" column will discuss his early career, his involvement in making GPC a standard laboratory tool, and the start of Waters Associates' involvement in LC.
Origin; Early Activities
The ancestors of the Waters family settled in 1640 in Salem, Massachusetts, and then, with the expansion of the United States, gradually moved westward, eventually reaching Nebraska in 1885. James Logan Waters was born there on October 7, 1925, but in 1942 the family moved back to Massachusetts. As all the young men of his generation, after Pearl Harbor, Jim joined the Armed Services, enrolling in the Navy's officer's training program. He graduated in 1946 from Columbia University, New York, New York, with a B.S. degree in physics and a commission as an ensign in the U.S. Navy. After a short period as a naval officer, he joined Baird Associates, a small company in the Boston area making spectrographs. At that time, the U.S. government issued a number of reports on science and technology in Germany during the war, and Jim read the one on instrumentation. This inspired him to set up his own company, J.L. Waters, Inc., with the aim of developing scientific instruments based upon descriptions in this report.
The postwar period can be characterized as the start of the transformation of chemistry from "wet" methods of classical analysis to the use of instruments based upon some physical measurement. This transformation was best characterized in 1962 by H.A. Liebhafsky, with his famous sentence: "Like it or not, the chemistry is going out of analytical chemistry" (2). Jim established a connection with Mine Safety Appliance Co. (MSA), a company in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and designed and built for them an infrared gas analyzer. In 1955, he sold his small company and the design of this instrument to MSA, receiving enough money to continue as an independent instrument developer. Then, in 1958, he formed a new company, Waters Associates.

Write-in candidate's nomination could change look of Plum school board
Michele Gallagher saw potential slashes to a host of electives in the Plum School District as unacceptable.
"When the cuts went up, to me it was a tragedy," said Gallagher, Oblock Junior High School PTA president.
"It put me in a tail spin. I felt charged."
Gallagher's outrage over the the potential for 21 teacher furloughs prompted her six days before the primary to mount a write-in campaign for a seat on the Plum School Board.
The Allegheny County Division of Elections last week said Gallagher, 41, a registered Democrat, secured the third position on the Democrat ballot with 552 votes.
Gallagher's nomination knocked out incumbent Sal Colella's placement on the Democrat ballot.
Colella received 509 votes. Colella, a Republican, secured the fourth position on the Republican ballot. Gallagher is a registered Democrat.
Gallagher's nomination on the Democrat ballot has the potential to change the complexion of the Plum School Board.
If Gallagher, along with Democrats Michelle M. Stepnick and Dawn Lynn Check in November win seats on the board, the three would join incumbents Tom McGough and Loretta White, both Democrats, to take the majority away from the Republicans.
"It's definitely a game changer," said Gallagher. "I am very excited about it."
Gallagher believes she, along with Check and Stepnick, would bring a fresh perspective to the board, in part because they are mothers.
Gallagher concedes the board had tough decisions to make to balance the 2013-14 budget. The board voted to use nearly $1 million from the district's reserve fund to help balance the $56 million spending plan.
The board also voted to eliminate the family consumer and sciences program at the high school.
Three teachers from the program are set to be laid off. Also, a tax increase is expected to raise $460,068 in revenue.
The board pulled back from approving 21 staff cuts and the elimination of a host of electives.
"Every spring they (the school board) scare parents, the community and children (with potential cuts)," Gallagher said.
Gallagher also concedes that tough decisions will need to be made to balance the 2014-15 budget due to anticipated increased costs.
The district's contract with the Plum Borough Education Association expires on June 30, 2014.
PBEA officials had agreed to about a half-million dollars in concessions. Talks broke down when the board decided against a one-year contract extension through June 30, 2015. Board members said a one-year contract extension would have cost the district an additional $900,000 in salaries for the 2014-15 school year. The PBEA contends the contract extension would have resulted in an additional $727,758 in salaries.
Gallagher said all employees need to help contribute to the fiscal viability of the district.
Former Plum Republican Committee Chairman Dave Majernik touts the accomplishments of the incumbents — Colella, Dowdell and Drake.
"Our guys have been ingenious in ways to save money with a minimal effect on school programs," Majernik said.
Majernik said some of the accomplishments have included instituting a new reading program in the elementary schools, hiring a math specialist for the elementary schools, building the new Pivik Elementary School at $2 million under budget, and taking steps that led to Standard and Poor's rating service upgrading the district's credit rating to an A-plus.
"Sal, Andy and Kevin have held the line and saved education," Majernik said.

BWW Reviews: SPAMALOT: Singing Knights and Flying Cows and Killer Rabbits...Oh My!
Singing knights, flying cows and a killer rabbit are just a few things you can expect from Spamalot, the Tony Award winning musical that has landed in DC at the Warner Theatre. Silliness abounds in this show, which is based on the 1975 movie, "Monty Python and the Holy Grail."
Spamalot offers a lopsided look at King Arthur and his knights of the round table. The audience follows them on their zany quest for the Holy Grail. Along the way, there are big musical numbers, nonsensical dialogue and an oversized can of Spam – and the whole thing is just a lot of fun.
The uninitiated will enjoy the jokes just as much as seasoned Monty Python fans. It is obvious that part of the fun for fans is the anticipation of what will be coming up next and seeing favorite moments brought to life. Much of the show's success is due to Mike Nichols' excellent direction. The audience does not see a poor imitation of a popular bit, but instead, a satisfying recreation.
The amusing score was composed by John Du Prez and Python alum Eric Idle. Mr. Idle also brought his unique sensibility to the book – making it distinctly Monty Python.
This tour brings us an incredibly strong cast led by Arthur Rowan as King Arthur. Mr. Rowan and Michael J. Berry as Patsy have great chemistry and both deliver very enjoyable performances. The entire cast, from featured actor to ensemble member, keep the mood light and handle the comedy well. However, Brittany Woodrow as the Lady of the Lake is a real standout. She is beautiful, funny and has a killer voice.
Casey Nicholaw, who is now known for his Tony winning direction for The Book Of Mormon, provides energetic choreography that at times is reminiscent of classic musical theater. Tim Hartley's original scenic design with modifications by James Kronzer provide a vibrant backdrop and it captures the well-known Monty Python style. The lighting design by Mike Baldassari completes the picture.
Spamalot is a laugh out loud good time. Unfortunately for DC audiences, it has a short run. Those who want to catch this crazy cast of characters only have till March 18th.
Warner Theatre is located at 513 13th Street, NW, Washington, DC

The Anacacho orchid tree (Bauhinia lunarioides) is a multi-trunked tree with pretty, butterfly-shape leaves and a nice display of snow-white (some individuals bloom pink) flowers in the spring. Some individual flowers bloom pink. Since the tree's mature width is only 10 feet it will fit in places where other trees will not.
Slender and elegant, the Palo Blanco (Acacia willardiana) can be wedged into all but the very smallest of spaces. One of the only desert trees with white bark, it will grow in the full blasting sun, and although its canopy is light, it provides some shade. Succulents, such as agaves, grow well beneath the filtered light of its canopy.
For partially shaded areas, consider the Texas Mountain Laurel (Sophora secundiflora). It sports purple/blue wisterialike blooms in the spring and retains its handsome evergreen foliage the rest of the year. It is good for the north or east sides of your home and can be left as a large shrub, or pruned up into a plant, with several trunks and a rounded canopy.
What are your favorite small trees?

text: The IDW Publishing wiki last edited by Darkside_of_the_Sun on 04/02/16 05:14PM View full history HistoryIDW was formed by entertainment executives and comic book artists Ted Adams, Alex Garner, Kris Oprisko and Robbie Robbins. The goal of the fledgling company was to build a strong client base and work on projects they enjoyed, ranging from movies, to comic books and trading cards, to name a few. Services that IDW initially provided included character design, conceptual artwork, trading card games, online and print style guides, and of course, comic books.IDW's client base includes: Activision, BBC, Cartoon Network, Electronic Arts, Microsoft, Simon & Schuster, Upper Deck, and various movie studios.Comic BooksThe first title published by IDW was the popular vampire series 30 Days of Night written by Steve Niles, which immediately started a bidding war between three major movie studios for the film rights. The company's second series, Popbot, garnered two Spectrum Gold Awards.Licensing deals followed soon after, building a strong readership and fan base with established characters from other medias. Titles included CSI, Underworld, The Shield, 24, Angel and Ghostbusters. Along with TV and movie characters, IDW secured the rights for Star Trek, Transformers, G.I. Joe, Silent Hill and Castlevania, among other video game.In 2008 IDW acquired the license to BBC's Doctor Who franchise, allowing two concurrent titles to be released, one focusing on colorized reprints from 1970-1980 from Doctor Who Magazine. The other title, Doctor Who: Provocateur was an original mini-series featuring the Tenth Doctor, and written by the TV series script writer Gary Russell. The success of the miniseries launched a follow up mini, a series of one-shots, and ultimately an ongoing series in 2009.ImprintsIn 2009 IDW formed an imprint with EA Games, called EA Comics, to adapt the video game company's library of titles, initially with Army of Two and Dragon Age.In early 2013, Jeff Kline founded Darby Pop Publishing in order to use the incredible visual medium of sequential art, better known as comic books, to tell new stories.Classic newspaper comic strips have also been collected and reprinted by IDW under the imprint Dean Mullaney's Library of American Comics.

Dean Baquet's first digital initiative: adding editors
The New York Times is adding deputy-level editors assigned to increase the volume and quality of its digital product. They'll sit in each of the paper's major editorial departments, executive editor Dean Baquet announced in a staff memo obtained by Capital.
They'll also be involved in training desk staffs in social media and in audience development initiatives on the desks.
Story Continued Below
The goal is to better leverage Times content across multiple platforms and to "help take the digital report to the next level," Baquet said.
The announcement comes in the wake of the Times Innovation Report, published in full by Buzzfeed in mid-May, which takes the paper to task for lacking a strong digital ground game and not promoting its content across all platforms.
Here's the announcement in full:
To the Staff,
I am happy to announce the first of several initiatives designed to increase the energy and imagination of our already strong digital report. We are adding a deputy-level editor to each of the major news desks whose responsibility will be to ensure our coverage shines everywhere we publish.
Of course the digital report is everyone's responsibility. And all of the major desks have built up impressive teams of people who have lifted our game in everything digital, from breaking news to posting analytic stories earlier in the day to innovations in storytelling. These new editors will give us added firepower and expertise to take the digital report to the next level. So much of a desk's time is consumed by figuring out various aspects of coverage that we need additional editors to watch for news that emerges on social media, and to look for ways to build up, edit and promote our work so that we are strong on the desktop, on mobile, as well as in the paper.
A good example of what this looks like is Paul Volpe in the Washington Bureau. On the day when the Supreme Court issues an important ruling, Paul has already arranged a plan that includes setting up a live dashboard, and he has planned, with other desks and reporters, to annotate decisions as they're released. He has already coordinated how we will report what we're learning on social media, and how much of this information will be positioned toward an edit for the paper.
These editors will also be involved in social media training for the staff. They will play a crucial role in helping each desk build an audience development strategy, and they will coordinate with other departments most closely involved in the digital report both in daily coverage and longer-term innovative projects and storytelling.
This announcement is an acknowledgement that at The Times, so much of the action takes place on the desks. But it is also the creation of a new leadership path for a generation of Times journalists who have spent years honing their digital crafts.
We'll now begin adding these editors with more to come --- International, National, Metro, Sports, Biz Day, Culture, Science, The Magazine and Media. If you are interested in applying for any of these deputy level positions, please be in touch with the department head.
- Dean

Intern's blog: SP Times layoffs "almost certain," according to publisher
The worst thing about being in Los Angeles for an extended period, is missing out when news breaks back home. Last year, I was headed to a press conference here for the debut of TMZ's TV show when Creative Loafing announced it was buying the Washington City Paper and the Reader in Chicago.
Now, the Poynter Institute's media news site Romenesko has unearthed a blog post from an intern at the St. Petersburg Times quoting publisher Marty Petty saying layoffs are "almost certain" after our first round of buyouts and that bureaus will be consolidated in size, starting with the Pasco bureau. This may come as news to many full-time staffers, who did not hear such direct language during huge meetings with Petty and editor in chief Paul Tash weeks ago.
(UPDATE: it appears the post has been removed from the intern's blog, so my previous link has been removed as well)
This is the second time a blog post from an intern has delivered insider news on staff reductions at a Tampa Bay area newspaper. My Facebook friend Wayne Garcia published an interesting story in this week's Creative Loafing which mentions Tampa Tribune intern Jessica DaSilva -- who wrote an earnest post about the newspaper's changing focus amid layoffs and earned a huge ration of criticism as a result (I think much of that was misplaced rage directed by folks who are highly critical of the Tribune's management).
Wayne also offered a blog item about something I wasn't aware of: The Times has worked out a deal to distribute Creative Loafing's newspapers, despite also publishing a competing free weekly, TBT*. Garcia says Creative Loafing sent a memo to its staff saying the deal would begin July 30, but since I've been in Los Angeles, I haven't heard of a similar note circulated at the Times.
I have resisted writing such instant blog posts from meetings at the Times, because I want people to feel free to express themselves without worrying their words might be splashed out in public. Many longtime friends and colleagues are losing jobs in this climate, and I've tried to be respectful of their privacy while also informing readers in this space of important developments.
It's also why I've tried to avoid publishing rumors about how many jobs may be cut here or there. I hate to cause hysteria without fully knowing the facts.
But it turns out these interns may create a new standard. I just hope they don't suffer too many consequences from revealing the substances of meetings where participants didn't necessarily know they were speaking for publication.

http://blogs.1070thefan.com/2013/08/...g-into-opener/The team also waived-injured tackle Justin Anderson, who Pagano said sustained a significant pec (pectoral) injury that likely will require season-ending surgery, and wide receiver Rodrick Rumble. The Colts signed linebacker Shawn Loiseau, who previously spent five months on the teams practice squad.
A seventh-round draft pick in 2012, the 6-5, 340-pound Anderson missed most of his rookie season with injuries.
Darn, he was a draft pick that never really got a chance to play. I was hoping he or Ben Ijalana would step up and contribute this year as a backup. I guess I'll just root for Ben now.
