EGLIN A.F.B. � The impact of civil service employee furloughs would be felt throughout the community if sequestration is activated March 1, Crestview City Council President Ben Iannucci III said.
EGLIN A.F.B. � The impact of civil service employee furloughs would be felt throughout the community if sequestration is activated March 1, Crestview City Council President Ben Iannucci III said.
"How many people in Crestview either are in the military or work for the military � it's a lot of people in our community.... That's going to affect everything from shopping to people thinking of coming here on vacation."
Eglin Air Force Base's civilian employees were notified Wednesday to prepare for possible furloughs if congressionally mandated sequestration is activated. The law requires a half-trillion-dollar across-the-board government-spending cut following the bi-partisan Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction's failure to arrive at a plan for reducing the national deficit.
The committee announced its inability to reach agreement on Nov. 21, 2012. Sequestration would have begun Jan. 1, but Congress gave a three-month extension. President Barack Obama has shielded active duty military members from furloughs.
With a large segment of the north county's workers employed in civil service, sequestration would have a local economic impact.
"It would definitely cause me to cut back on spending," Crestview resident Matthew Smith, a civilian worker at the Eglin Air Force Base Test Support lab, said. "I think I would be OK because of the way I set up my house payments, but it would make my finances tighten up."
Furloughs could occur one day a week beginning April 1 for up to 22 weeks through the fiscal year, defense contractor InDyne General Manager Jim Heald said.
"That's a 20 percent hit," Heald said. "I'm very nervous for my workforce. I have about 800 great patriots working for me. Hopefully Congress will do its job."
InDyne, a private company, could be affected by furloughs because it receives government oversight during tests on the range.
"It may slow things down. If we can't do testing on the day the government employee isn't there, we'll have to do something else � and we hope that 'something else' is not furlough."

On the 10 year anniversary of the war in Iraq, a Today Show news clip flashed statistics across my television screen: Almost 4,500 troops killed, 32,000 troops wounded.
I turned these numbers in my head for hours, perplexed. Even without capturing the casualties in Afghanistan, the statistics of the wounded seemed oddly low.
The Defense and Veterans Brain Injury Center reports more than 232,000 service members have been diagnosed with Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) since 2003, and a study by the Congressional Research Service shows that more than 100,000 service members have been diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome (PTSD) since 2000.
I suppose it comes down to the definition of the word "wounded," but we must acknowledge and support service members suffering from the invisible wounds of PTSD/TBI. It's real, and it's not going away. It certainly hasn't for Marshele Carter Waddell. After 25 years of service, her Navy SEAL retired with physical and psychological wounds. It's the latter that still plagues them today.
A crumbling home front drove Waddell to seek counseling while her husband was still serving on active duty. For years, she accumulated knowledge about brain injuries and combat stress. She discovered that the anger, confusion, sorrow, and anxiety she felt were called compassion fatigue, acute stress, and secondary traumatic stress.
"This was living grief," she told me. Her marriage was forever changed. "I had to understand that loss, mourn that loss. Accept what had happened and move forward."
She dug in spiritually and emotionally, determined to fight for her marriage, her family, and her husband. After realizing that few organizations supported the wives touched by such invisible wounds of war, Waddell founded a ministry called Hope for the Home Front.
"When the War Comes Home, Don't Retreat" weekend retreats allow wives to come out of isolation and congregate with others who are coping with similar situations. Waddell said that typically, the women arrive on a Friday evening, apprehensive and drained.
"We help them make a personal plan for wholeness," said Waddell, emphasizing the importance of their own spiritual, mental and physical health. After a weekend of bonding, sharing, and laughter, participants leave with accountability partners, goals, and a supportive virtual community.
Over a nine-month period, Waddell and counselor and Vietnam veteran Kelly K. Orr, Ph.D. interviewed 25 wives to contribute to the book "Wounded Warrior, Wounded Home." It's a beautifully written, practical and spiritual guide for spouses, likening the fight against PTSD to a biblical battle for peace.
It's said that each service member's war experiences in Iraq and Afghanistan impact at least three and up to 10 family members and friends. Thus, the impact of the war wounded reaches between 4.5 million and 15 million people.
As Waddell writes, "The fight isn't over; it simply changed addresses."

FORT STEWART - Staff Sgt. Christopher M. Hake began his Army career in a ceremonial unit, serving as an escort during funerals at Arlington National Cemetery and marching in President Bush's 2001 inauguration parade.
But he wanted to do his part in Iraq. So Hake, of Enid, Okla., transferred in 2004 to the 3rd Infantry Division at Fort Stewart, deployed to Iraq in 2005 and returned for a second combat tour late last year.
Hake, 26, and three Fort Stewart soldiers in his squad died Monday from wounds they suffered when a roadside bomb exploded into their vehicle the day before. The Army announced the four deaths Thursday, pushing the military's count of U.S. service members killed in Iraq to 4,000.
The military's count varies slightly from an independent tally kept by The Associated Press, which on Thursday counted 4,004 service members killed in Iraq.
Also killed in the explosion were Spc. Jose A. Rubio Hernandez, 24, of Mission, Texas; Pfc. Andrew J. Habsieger, 22, of Festus, Mo.; and Pvt. George Delgado, 21, of Palmdale, Calif.
"He wanted to be known for something, and now he is," said Rubio's wife, Jennifer Guerra.
The four men served in the 4th Battalion, 64th Armor Regiment, which was among the first Army units to charge into Iraq during the March 2003 invasion. The battalion is part of the 19,000-soldier 3rd Infantry, the first Army division to be tapped for a third tour of duty in Iraq.
Their deaths came at a time of celebration on the Army post southwest of Savannah, where hundreds of troops from the division's 1st Brigade began arriving home this week from a 15-month deployment. The 4/64 Armor, however, was not scheduled to return until early 2009.
Rubio had moved to the U.S. from Mexico with his family at age 4. Edgar Rubio said his younger brother joined the Army in 2006 out of gratitude for the opportunities his family had in America. Before he was killed, Rubio had filled out his paperwork to apply for U.S. citizenship, but had yet to mail it.
In California's Antelope Valley, staff and students gathered during a lunch break to pray for Delgado at Desert Christian High School, where he earned his diploma in 2004.
Devin Thomas, the dean of discipline and incoming principal, remembered Delgado for his "infectious, unique sense of humor."
"From day one, that was his personality - to laugh and to joke and to have a good time," Thomas said.
High school friend Alysse Pernula said Delgado had an adventurous spirit and overall enjoyed Army life.
Despite having been a football star at his Missouri high school, Habsieger had to fight to join the Army in 2007. His mother said the military first rejected her son because he suffered from migraine headaches.
Brenda Habsieger told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch her son longed to enlist after hearing his grandfather's stories of military service. She said he died two weeks before he was to come home from Iraq on leave.
"He was a big-hearted kid and made everyone around him better," said Joel Critchlow, Habsieger's former football coach. "He led through example."
Associated Press reporters Chelsea J. Carter in San Diego; Christopher Sherman in Mission, Texas, and Murray Evans in Oklahoma City contributed to this article.

The University of Michigan Geriatrics Center is committed to developing initiatives in geriatrics research and training to advance the state of knowledge regarding the medical problems of the older adult. Our research programs are designed to complement the multidisciplinary approaches to clinical care and education that are characteristic of the field of geriatrics. Nearly 250 faculty from throughout the Medical School and the University participate in aging research totaling more than $79 million in NIH research support annually.
The research arm of the Geriatrics Center, the Institute of Gerontology, is home to a world-class faculty whose research interests range from the social and economic to the molecular and biological changes that occur in an aging population. While diverse in their own disciplines, faculty are committed to pursuing interdisciplinary/multidisciplinary research projects that look at the changes of aging from all aspects.
Research currently underway can be grouped into several broad areas of interest. Biological - focusing on the biochemical processes and their relationship to aging; clinical - focusing on a diverse research agenda on the interplay between aging and disease; interdisciplinary - addressing how the biomedical and social sciences and the humanities can interact with one another in research public policy; methodology - statisticians and methodologists innovating approaches to enhance statistical analyses; and social – focusing on the social, economic, and health care delivery issues of an aging population.

Location: California
Established: October 2, 1968
Size: 131,983 acres, including 3 state parks
Sometimes, when the morning fog caresses the great trees, you can imagine the past flowing through the long, misty shadows … Vast redwood forests flourishing across a lush and humid North America … After the final ice age, a last stand here in the sustaining climate along the Pacific coast … Tree after tree falling to the loggers. Then, in a windswept moment, the past vanishes and you stand beside other visitors, gazing up at the Earth's tallest living things. That is the essence of Redwood National and State Parks.
The park, near the northern limit of the coast redwood's narrow range, preserves the remnants of a forest that once covered two million acres and, at the turn of the 20th century, was badly threatened by logging. The state of California and the Save-the-Redwoods League came to the rescue by acquiring hundreds of groves and protecting them within 26 state parks. Three redwood state parks—Jedediah Smith, Del Norte Coast, and Prairie Creek—were encompassed by the national park when it was created in 1968.
Logging on surrounding private land, however, threatened the parks' protected redwoods. Soil and sediments from the logged-over tracts washed into the rivers and creeks, settling to the bottom downstream. Silt deposits can smother redwoods—for the giants are amazingly vulnerable. And the waterlogged soil weakens the trees' resistance to wind. Their roots are shallow, often only ten feet deep.
In 1978 Congress added 48,000 acres to the national park's 58,000 acres, including about 36,000 that had been logged. The raw, clear-cut land, a park official wrote, had "the look of an active war zone." Today, in an epic earth-moving project—a redwood renaissance—crews are beginning to reclaim vast stretches of logged-over lands. Hillsides, carved away for logging roads, are being restored. Most of the 400 miles of roads are being erased. It will take at least 50 years for the scars of logging to disappear and another 250 or so years for the replanted redwood seedlings to grow to modest size.
The renaissance has added a new dimension to the traditional rite of staring up at redwoods. Today's visitor can look at hillsides shorn of giants and know that generations from now the trees will grow there again.
How to Get There
Tree-lined US 101, the Redwood Highway, runs the length of the park. From the south, take US 101 to the information center near Orick, about 40 miles north of Eureka. From the north, enter through Crescent City, also an information center site. From the east, take US 199, another redwood-flanked highway, to Hiouchi. Airports: Arcata and Crescent City.
When to Go
Year-round. Summer draws highway-clogging crowds, so think about a visit in spring or fall. In both seasons, bird migrations enhance the redwood groves. Rhododendrons burst forth in spring; deciduous trees add color in fall. Rains, welcome to the redwoods but not to visitors, drench the park in winter.
How to Visit
US 101, with its many redwood sentinels, gives you a windshield-framed panorama of the trees. But to appreciate the redwoods, you must walk among them. If you have only a day to visit this 50-mile-long park, stop and see the Lady Bird Johnson Grove and Big Tree. Hike or just stretch your legs (depending on your time) along the Coastal Trail and savor the Pacific prospect of the park. For a longer stay, visit the Tall Trees Grove, drive Howland Hill Road, and end your visit with a splash in a kayak on the Klamath River or a jouncy drive to Fern Canyon and Gold Bluffs Beach. If you are driving an RV or towing a trailer, some stretches of road may be closed to you; check at information centers.

The United Nations is working on a treaty that would impact Second Amendment rights in the United States and reveal the records of America's gun owners to foreign governments, placing the Second Amendment under international scrutiny.
The UN Arms Trade Treaty is supported by organizations such as Amnesty International USA because of its purported potential for controlling unregulated weapons. But critics of the pact recognize the overreach it would create.
Wayne LaPierre, president of the National Rifle Association, warned that it would eventually lead to the complete eradication of Second Amendment rights. Americans "just don't want the UN to be acting as a global nanny with a global permission slip stating whether they can own a gun or not," he declared, adding, "It cheapens our rights as American citizens, and weakens our sovereignty."
In fact, the treaty could even impact American foreign policy, as under its terms Washington might be restricted from arming its allies such, as Israel. The treaty's language would make it simple for nations to intercede in the transfer of arms from the United States to Israel using on the same allegations of human rights violations that have been levied against Israel in the past.
As another example, one clause in the treaty — prohibiting arms sales between UN members and non-UN member states — would prevent the United States from selling arms to Taiwan, as Taiwan is not a member of the United Nations. As noted by Fox News, "This would be highly problematic for the U.S. at a time when Beijing is engaged in unprecedented arms buildup."
Greg Suchan, deputy assistant secretary in the State Department's Bureau of Political Military Affairs from 2000 to 2007, also stated that just as the treaty can be used to prohibit arms transfers between the United States and its allies, it may also make the trade of arms between rogue nations easier. He explained that the treaty may make it harder for Washington to advocate voluntary arms embargoes against such nations:
We might want to urge a country to not sell arms to a state whose government is particularly odious. But that government could then ask whether the sale is prohibited under the Arms Trade Treaty — and if it is not, they would argue they are meeting the international standard.
Suchan also indicated that the treaty may allow foreign nations to have access to the records of gun owners in the United States.
LaPierre contended that the UN's "refusal" to remove civilian firearms and ammunition from the scope of the treaty is essentially the global body's way of indicating that only governments should have access to weapons. He added,
The only way to address NRA's objections is to simply and completely remove civilian firearms from the scope of the treaty. That is the only solution. On that, there will be no compromise.
They're trying to impose a UN policy that gives guns to the governments — but the UN doesn't in turn make moral judgments as to whether these governments are good or bad.
If you're the government, you get the guns; if you're a civilian, you don't. But this will just end up helping evil governments and tyrants.... The UN view is that governments — not individual citizens — ought to protect people.
Iran has played a significant role in the negotiations for the treaty. Fox News notes:
The world body has already been criticized for appointing Iran to a key role in the talks, even as Tehran stands accused by the UN of arming Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's bloody crackdown on rebels. The Obama administration in 2009 reversed Bush administration policy by agreeing to take part in the talks.
Members of the U.S. Senate have already signed letters to President Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton that indicate their refusal to ratify any treaty that gives control of civilian guns or ammunition to the United Nations. Without ratification by two-thirds of the Senate, the treaty cannot become law.
A letter prepared by Senator Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) states that members of the Senate have "grave concerns" about the treaty, and asserts that proposals concerning "all types of conventional weapons (regardless of their purpose), including small arms and light weapons, ammunition, components, parts, technology and related materials … would be completely unenforceable."
Another letter from Senator Jon Tester (D-Mont.) voices opposition to "any inclusion of small arms, light weapons, ammunition or related materials that would make the treaty overly broad and virtually unenforceable."
Such requirements, however, would not prevent the treaty from going into effect elsewhere. According to Fox News, "Such a development could change the pattern of world arms transfers and reduce the U.S. share, which stands at about 40 percent of up to $60 [billion] in global deals."
Despite the strong show of opposition in the Senate, however, LaPierre remains concerned about the potential for Second Amendment rights' infringement:
If they get this through, then what comes along is the institutionalizing of the whole gun control-ban movement within the bureaucracy of UN — with a permanent funding mechanism that we [Americans] will be mainly paying for.
The world's worst human rights abusers will end up voting for this, while the Obama administration has not drawn a line in the sand like the previous administration did. Instead, it is trying to be a part of this train wreck because they think they can somehow finesse it. But, to me, there is no finessing the individual freedoms of American citizens.
In 2006, George W. Bush opposed the UN General Assembly resolution that would have launched the treaty process; however, President Obama agreed to it on the condition that the final agreement be reached by consensus — which permits any of the 193 member states the right of veto.
But that concession was not enough to assuage the concerns of the treaty's opponents.
"The administration swears they have a whole bunch of red lines, and they will block consensus if anyone crosses them," said Suchan. "But the dynamics of international negotiations are that once you get 90 percent of what you seek, you say, 'Maybe there is a way we can finesse the final 10 percent.'"

Land Rover and Range Rover's involvement over its last 10 years
Camel Trophy – overview
Sepang International Circuit, Malaysia
One of the more recent F1 specific tracks joining, the calendar in 1999, and seeing the return of Michael Schumacher in the Ferrari after his leg injury sustained at the British Grand Prix. He spent the entire race trying to go 'slowly' so that he could help his then team mate Eddie 'Irv the swerve' Irvine in the title chase. Even doing so, he made everyone else look like amateurs and somehow found a way to 'not' win the race.
Such is Formula One that on April 8, 2007, shortly before the 2007 Malaysian Grand Prix, Formula One president Bernie Ecclestone was quoted in stating that the circuit was getting "shabby" and "a bit tired" from the lack of care, describing it as "an old house that needs a bit of redecorating". Cheek!
The circuit also sees action from MotoGP and Japanese Super GT racing.

When people hear the disyllabic sounds, "alta" and "dena," I would wager that most of them think of the well-known City of Industry-based Alta Dena Dairy, which was started by the three, Missouri-born Stueve Brothers in Monrovia, California in 1945. Oddly, more than five minutes of internet research haven't helped me figure out why they named their dairy after a fellow San Gabriel Mountains community located some miles west of their hometown. Nonetheless, I based my map's "typeface" on their logo.
For a community that's never bothered incorporating, Altadena seems to have a very strong sense of pride, place and community. The first time I think I visited Altadena involved walking there from my workplace in Pasadena. Although my journey involved little more than crossing a freeway, once I arrived I felt as if, proverbially speaking, I was no longer in Kansas.

A Daytona Beach hotel was evacuated Tuesday afternoon because of a fire.
The Daytona Beach Fire Department said they arrived at the Bay View Hotel at 1247 Orange Avenue around 5 p.m.
When firefighters arrived, officials say they were guided to the rear of the 3-story wood-framed commercial structure where light smoke was seen.
Authorities say initial reports pointed to construction workers removing the metal fire escape in the rear of the building as the possible cause of the fire. Firefighters believe that workers were using a welding torch to cut away the metal and set fire to pieces of rotting wood.
Authorities say fire crews were forced to breach exterior and interior walls, and make trench-type cuts in the floor to search for the fire.
Firefighters were also forced to utilize these tactics due to the age of the building and no fire stops being in place to prevent the fire from traveling. Officials said fire crews were able to find the burning wood between the second and third floor and stop the spread of the fire.
Officials said 50 residents displaced by the fire were taken to a Red Cross shelter in Daytona Beach.
Two individuals were treated for shortness of breath issues and the damage to the building is estimated to exceed $50,000, said officials.
It's not known when they will be allowed to return to the hotel.

OAK PARK, Ill. -- Frank Lloyd Wright liked to practice where he preached. With his longtime personal house and studio nestled in the middle of this tony Chicago suburb, Wright got plenty of commissions nearby.
Visitors to the Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio can also easily take a walking tour of a treasure-trove of other buildings of his. Here are some of the best.
This is the Arthur B. Heurtley House, built in 1902.
Just a few doors down from the Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio is this stunner, the Walter H. Gale house, which is one of a group of houses that he designed when he was still employed by Louis Sullivan. Because he was not allowed to moonlight, these houses are known as "bootlegs." Wright designed it in 1893.
This is the Hills-DeCaro house, which was built in 1906 and substantially reconstructed in 1977. It was designated a local landmark in 2002.
This is the gorgeous Frank Thomas house, which Wright designed in 1901.
Another look at the Arthur B. Heurtley House.
A Unitarian himself, Wright designed Oak Park's Unity Temple, which was built between 1905 and 1908.
A look at the Unity Temple from one of Oak Park's thoroughfares, Lake Street.
A look at the Frank Thomas house from the side.
Featuring some similarity to Wright's masterpiece Fallingwater, this is the Laura Gale House, just a few blocks from the Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio.
A look at the Hills-DeCaro House from the side.
Just a block from Wright's house and studio is the Nathan G. Moore House, which the famed architect had built in 1895, and then again in 1923 after a fire gutted it.
Another bootleg house just steps from Wright's home and studio, this is the Thomas H. Gale House, which Wright designed in 1892.
Yet another bootleg house, this is the Robert P. Parker house, designed in 1892.
This is the Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio, where the famed architect lived and worked from 1889 to 1909.

In the Channel Nine series Underbelly Razor – as in real life – Sydney's criminal matriarch Tilly Devine did not hesitate to wield the razor to keep her motley empire in line and protect it against incursion by rival gangs. It appears Julia Gillard approaches the task of achieving a budget surplus in 2012-13 with a similar ferocity of intent.
A high-level group within cabinet, chaired by the Treasurer, Wayne Swan, called the expenditure review committee, last week signed off on a range of budget savings measures to ensure the surplus target. They will be revealed in the coming week with the regular end-of-year federal budget update, known as the Mid Year Economic and Fiscal Outlook. MYEFO, to those in the know.
This year's update will reveal a downgrade to the Treasury's economic growth forecasts since the May budget, but still show the economy growing at about trend, not falling off a cliff.
However, smaller-than-expected revenue collections mean that, left alone, the budget would still be in deficit by a billion or two in 2012-13. And make no mistake, by hook or by crook, Gillard, Swan and Co are getting their surplus (intervening dramatic European events permitting, of course).
The government says that by pulling on the fiscal reins it is giving the Reserve Bank more room to cut interest rates. Picture Gillard as razor maiden, the Reserve Bank governor, Glenn Stevens, as Santa Claus.
This is significant, representing a continuing shift in what economists call Australia's "policy mix": the relative responsibility of fiscal policy (government's spend and tax decisions) and monetary policy (interest rates) in influencing the level of aggregate demand in the economy.
In previous episodes – think mining boom mark one under Howard – puritanical economists were always complaining that the two arms of economic policymaking were working against each other. By lifting interest rates in 2007, the Reserve Bank had its hand on the brake, trying to reduce aggregate demand in the economy, and hence control price rises.
At the same time, the Howard government was merrily spending on cash handouts for pensioners and tax cuts for all before the 2007 election (cuts that Labor also adopted and implemented), effectively putting its foot on the economic accelerator by adding to demand.
When the global financial crisis hit, the policy mix changed dramatically. The government and the Reserve Bank acted in concert to stimulate demand, delivering multibillion-dollar fiscal spending and interest rate cuts. In a speech in late 2009, senior Treasury official David Gruen hailed "the return of fiscal policy".
Since early 2010, the government has in fact been quietly putting its foot on the brake. Because the government went from stimulating activity a lot to stimulating it by less, this change in stance means government budget decisions have actually been subtracting from the rate of economic growth.
These new spending cuts indicate the government wants fiscal policy to continue to be contractionary. The advantage of running tight fiscal policy rather than tight monetary policy – that is, high interest rates – is that it limits upward pressure on the dollar, in turn relieving some pressure on struggling manufacturers and tourism operators.
The same puritanical economists are now running around arguing the government is putting its foot on the brake while the Reserve Bank is, if anything, tapping the accelerator with its interest rate cut last month.
But let's keep this in perspective.
The estimates are that the government will need about $4 billion in savings to secure a surplus in 2012-13. Out of total spending of $381 billion forecast for that year, that's not huge. Europe may well fall over the edge, triggering another economic downturn, but it hasn't yet. With Australian economic growth at trend, it remains prudent for the government to keep a firm hand on the purse strings.
Moreover, let's not look this gift-horse in the mouth. How often do you get politicians desperate to cut spending rather than squander it on appealing to special interests (like pre-election handouts for old people). Let them go for it, I say.
In the long term, the budget faces a significant shortfall in revenues due to the ageing of the population. In the shorter term, money must also be found for a $2 billion pay rise for low-paid social and community service workers and to fund a comprehensive national disability insurance scheme.
As always, it's the quality of the spending cuts that matters, not their size. It would be quite possible to fudge the figures to create a surplus in 2012-13 by simply pulling forward spending into earlier deficit years, or delaying spending until the out-years of the budget.
But the government has also indicated "structural" spending cuts to the big budget items of welfare, health, education and defence are in the offing. Specifically, the ballooning cost of pharmaceutical subsidies and dentists who over-claim under a limited publicly funded dental scheme are reportedly in the firing line.
Will it be enough to convince the Reserve Bank it could step in with another cut in interest rates next month? That, of course, depends on the size of the cuts the government unveils. But at $4 billion – or roughly 0.3 per cent of GDP – it's unlikely.
Dramatic events in Europe could well convince the Reserve board of the need for another pre-Christmas interest rate cut, as could any signals in economic reports that Australian consumers and businesses are more worried about Europe than they had previously been letting on.
For the time being, however, the bank is sitting pretty, having returned interest rates to "neutral" – their historic average. It continues to watch for a sign that it needs to flick the monetary policy switch to stimulatory by cutting interest rates to below neutral. But it hasn't happened yet.

Danks pitches White Sox past Tigers in opener
DETROIT -- When the ball initially left Rajai Davis' bat in the ninth inning of Monday's 3-1 White Sox victory over the Tigers at Comerica Park, it looked and sounded for a split-second that Detroit might have pulled off a gut-punching walk-off victory.

DETROIT -- When the ball initially left Rajai Davis' bat in the ninth inning of Monday's 3-1 White Sox victory over the Tigers at Comerica Park, it looked and sounded for a split-second that Detroit might have pulled off a gut-punching walk-off victory.
White Sox closer Matt Lindstrom (second save) knew differently immediately.View Full Game Coverage
"I think he hit it off the end of the bat," Lindstrom said. "When I saw the contact, I said, 'That's not going anywhere.'"
Davis' fly ball, following Alex Avila's one-out double and a walk to pinch-hitter J.D. Martinez, found the glove of left fielder Alejandro De Aza. Ian Kinsler's ground ball to shortstop Alexei Ramirez finished off a second straight road victory for the White Sox (10-10).
Through the first six innings during this opener of a four-game set between American League Central rivals, the visitors had exactly three baserunners against starter Anibal Sanchez (0-2). Jordan Danks reached on an Austin Jackson error to start the game, De Aza walked with one out in the third and Marcus Semien started the fourth with a double.
Those meager fortunes all changed in the seventh.
The White Sox knocked Sanchez from the game with four hits and scored three times to erase a 1-0 lead, making a winner of John Danks (2-0). That rally also received a little boost from the replay system.
Conor Gillaspie started the seventh with a double to right and appeared to come around to score on Jose Abreu's ground-rule double down the right-field line. Torii Hunter had a long way to go to get to the ball and his slide came up short, but Hunter immediately signaled that the ball landed foul.
Detroit manager Brad Ausmus challenged the play, but the umpires ruled that the call stood via replay. Dayan Viciedo doubled home the go-ahead run, and then scored on Ramirez's single to left and a throwing error by Davis. But Viciedo was originally ruled out at home by umpire CB Bucknor, on a throw from Sanchez to Avila, as the White Sox right fielder stopped at third and then tried to advance on the wild throw.
Since White Sox manager Robin Ventura had lost his earlier challenge -- on an infield single by Nick Castellanos in the fourth inning -- he had to request for a crew chief review from Dan Iassogna. That review was granted and the out call was overturned.
"Kash is good. He got one," said Ventura of White Sox pregame instructor Mike Kashirsky, who is also involved with replays. "We're 50-50 tonight."
"Everything happens so fast. I feel good today. I held the ball better than the last time," said Sanchez, who fanned three and walked one over 6 1/3 innings. "The seventh inning, for me, was just a couple of mistakes, high balls. They were aggressive all night. They swing at a lot of first pitches. They found a hole."
Danks worked 6 1/3 innings and 101 pitches, allowing one run on six hits. He walked three, including two in the second to load the bases with nobody out, but escaped that inning by giving up just one run. His changeup kept the Tigers (9-7) off balance, and he took advantage of the aggressiveness of Avila, Andrew Romine and Davis in that second, when he retired the three on seven pitches after loading the bases, with five of those pitches coming in Romine's at-bat.
"Dodged a big bullet there," said a smiling Danks of the second. "Obviously, two walks in that inning are not good. But to get out of that one with just one run, where we were at, I guess you've got to take that. Try to keep myself out of those situations as best I can."
"He's been a good pitcher for a while," said Avila of Danks. "He's had some struggles when he's had his injuries and things like that. But for the most part, he has a really good changeup that he works along with his fastball.
Singles by Romine off of Danks and Davis off of Ronald Belisario put runners on first and third with one out in the seventh, but Kinsler hit the next pitch from Belisario for an inning-ending double play. Belisario worked a scoreless eighth before giving way to Lindstrom, who made things interesting before closing out the victory.
This win had a slightly bittersweet feel to it, with postgame news of White Sox ace Chris Sale going to the 15-day disabled list because of a flexor muscle strain in his left arm. But even that piece of news was encouraging when considering the worst-case scenario.
"I'm going to try to pick up the slack until then," said Danks of the return of his friend and rotation mate. "After we were down 1-0, I knew if I could keep it within a run or so, we had a chance. This team doesn't give up. This team plays hard and we really don't feel like we're out of any game.
"Sanchez threw the heck out of the ball today. It's fun to watch when it's not your offense out there. He did a great job and I'm glad we were able to hold them and those guys got some runs late."

NORTH CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) -- South Carolina voters on Tuesday elected the first black Republican to Congress from the Deep South since Reconstruction.
State Rep. Tim Scott easily defeated perennial Democratic candidate Ben Frasier and five third-party candidates to win the 1st District seat left vacant by the retirement of Republican U.S. Rep. Henry Brown.
Scott will be the nation's first black GOP congressman since Oklahoma's J.C. Watts retired in 2003.
The district, once represented by Gov. Mark Sanford, reaches from the sea islands south of Charleston, through the city where the Civil War began and north along the coast to the Myrtle Beach area.
The 45-year-old Scott swamped his opponents in fundraising, spending almost $725,000 during the election cycle to less than $20,000 for his November opponents. The conservative businessman, who owns an insurance agency, picked up the endorsements of tea party groups and former GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin.
In 2008, Scott was elected to the Legislature, becoming the first black Republican lawmaker in the state in more than a century. He said his candidacy shows how the state has evolved over the years.
He served 13 years on Charleston County Council and was honorary chairman of one of political icon Strom Thurmond's Senate re-election bids. Raised in poverty in North Charleston, Scott's single mother, Frances, worked 16 hours a day raising Scott and his brother.
After winning a nine-way Republican primary, Scott became the heavy favorite to win the seat in a district that has not elected a Democrat in 30 years.
In the primary, Scott defeated Carroll Campbell III, the son of the late popular South Carolina governor and then, in the runoff, defeated Thurmond's son, Paul.

Then I took the sand outside along with some plates, cups, cookie cutters and fun beads to let the kids begin with their creations.
Maisy started out just spooning sand onto her plate and patting it down. I think she wanted to make a sandy base, but I had to have her start all over again because there just wasn't enough of the sand mixture to allow her to do it that way.
I really had to help Mina figure out what to do. She is so used to playing in the sand box, but this idea was new to her. I think she would have known what to do in the sand box, but with this set up she needed a little more direction. I ended up making the tiny castles for her and she had a ball just decorating them.
Mina's creation before she just decided to squash it flat...
Yep, she just wanted to remind me that it's about the process - not the end product.
This is Lou's creation complete with party picks, beads, tiny sea shells and Hello Kitty charms.
Maisy was pretty excited about her sand castle - it looks a lot like her sister's. I can't wait to see what kinds of things Maisy will create once Lou is back in school. She likes to mimic her older sister quite a bit, but she takes on such a different role when she is the oldest child at home.
We left the castles outside overnight to dry and in the morning they were hard as a rock. Once the sand was dry the decorations didn't stick so well to the sand, but nothing a little glue won't fix. I think we will do this again next summer with a larger batch of sand. It would be a really fun activity to do on vacation or with sand that is brought home from a vacation also.

If that second innings beating He's just taken today becomes habitual, please don't let it happen again Mitch. Is he headed down the route of One day specialist like Bracken? Am I jumping to conclusions?

They scored a single, declared and still won by an innings
Is Mitchell Starc doomed to unflattering comparisons whenever he plays badly in a way James Pattinson and Patrick Cummins never will be
Brad McNamara @bbuzzmc
Will say this once and then nothing else. Defamation laws quite clear in Aus.be careful.
(can't wait to make 'Is James Pattinson the new Brad Williams fwiw)
If I was feeling mean I'd compare him to James Franklin.
Proudly supporting Central Districts
RIP Craig Walsh
Nathan Bracken had better hair
Cricket Web's current Premier League Tipping Champion
- As featured in The Independent.
"Rory Burns wafted and whooshed, hit a few, edged a few more and batted at times with all the graceful serenity of a man trying to force his way head-first through a privet hedge." - Barney Ronay on the Surrey opener's maiden test ton
For the record Mitch Starc is my 2nd favourite aussie pace man after Glenn Mcgrath, who is in turn one of my favourite cricketers outright. That aside he really got singled out today. Here's hoping he bounces back and develops into a class test player.
He lacks wicket taking variety atm. Strange thing to say I know, but looks like his wickets only come from inswingers that bowl the batsmen. Not a problem if he keeps doing it ofcourse, but once the ball stops moving he needs to find other ways of getting batsmen out.
Despite all the hate for Johnson, he had 3 major ways of taking wickets, inswinger (rarely), off cutter and the bouncer.
Its not like Starc was getting thrashed around in shield matches this season....oh wait
My Youtube cricket channels, thousands of gold old videos
There you go: a Michelle on his recall.

NASHVILLE, TENN. - Looking to rebound from Friday's narrow defeat to Georgia Tech, the Lipscomb men's tennis team couldn't topple the No. 46-ranked Middle Tennessee at home Sunday, 7-0.
The loss puts the Bisons 0-2 on the season with both loses coming from ranked opponents in the top 60. The Blue Raiders won their first tennis match of the season.
Coach Andrew Harris said the match showed needs of improvement in the doubles competition.
"We came out in doubles looking to really play some solid fundamentals in terms of executing our game plan," Harris said. "We had a difficult time when we had opportunities in terms of after having the break of the serve and then staying ahead consistently.
"We found ourselves on the long end of the stick when we couldn't hold our serves. We've got to keep working on serves."
In regards to the singles matches, Harris said he hopes the team can overcome consistency problems to tap into the talent at hand.
"We need to keep working on staying mentally consistent over the course of a two-hour match or a two-and-a-half hour match," Harris said. "We have to make sure that we're staying focused all the way around through the match, and we have good opportunities to be ready to excel when the time comes."
Harris said he wants to take the next two weeks to get the team healthy and prepared for the next match.
The men's tennis team hopes to net their first win of the season when they host Abilene Christian University Feb. 8.

With little room for HRT in current practice and little else in the traditional medicine chest to consider, physicians are increasingly turning to natural non-hormonal therapies for women who need relief from menopausal symptoms. As a naturopathic physician, I have used botanical medicines and other natural alternatives for many years with great success to help women create and maintain hormonal health. I've found the most effective approach combines stress management, diet, exercise and nutritional supplements to support and work with a woman's body, not against it. While each patient's treatment plan is unique, it has been my experience that most symptoms caused by menopause and/or hormone fluctuations and imbalances will respond to natural therapies.
Hot Flashes/Night Sweats
These core symptoms reflect the hypothalamic response to rapidly fluctuating and falling levels of estradiol. Hot flashes vary in severity, from a sudden sensation of warmth to acute drenching sweats and bright red flushing. Duration ranges for a few months, to a few years or not at all. By some estimates, 10-15 percent of women in menopause are awakened by night sweats throughout the night.
Black cohosh (Cimicifuga racemosa) is the most widely used and most thoroughly studied natural supplement for menopausal symptoms and has been clinically proven to reduce hot flashes and night sweats. While black cohosh's exact mechanism of action is unknown, compounds in the herb appear to bind to estrogen receptors without changing hormone levels in the body. Recent studies demonstrate black cohosh has no effect upon luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), estradiol, prolactin or sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG).
A placebo-controlled, double blind study compared standardized black cohosh extract to conjugated estrogen. Women experiencing menopausal symptoms were randomized to receive black cohosh, conjugated estrogen, or placebo for three months. The participant's symptoms were assessed using the menopause rating scale (MRS) and individual diaries. The results showed that the women taking standardized black cohosh extract had clinical and statistical improvement of symptoms equal to the women taking conjugated estrogen. No improvement of menopausal complaints was observed in the control group. (Wuttke, et al 2003).
Because black cohosh does not have estrogenic action and does not contain phytoestrogens it is safe for use in patients with a history of breast cancer. My usual recommendation is 40 mg of black cohosh daily, standardized to 2.5% triterpene glycosides, daily.
Isoflavones are compounds with both hormonal and non-hormonal properties and are considered to be phytoestrogens with selective estrogen receptor modulators (phytoSERMs). Unlike estrogen, which is not tissue selective, phytoSERMs exert estrogenic effects in desired tissues such as the heart, skeletal system, and brain, but ideally have no effects in other tissues, such as the breast. The various biologic activities of isoflavones suggest that they offer many of the beneficial effects of estrogen. Controlled trials have indicated these compounds support healthy serum cholesterol levels and support healthy bone resorption.

Art School
Baby gear brands get a lesson in the fine arts. By Angela Velasquez
Andy Warhol may have famously declared his love for boring things, but I bet that even the pop culture enthusiast and artist would have loved the new and creative baby gear hitting store shelves. From prints pulled from Warhol's archive to today's leading fashion designers and innovators dipping their toes into the children's category, a bright and funky selection of strollers and diapers bags are carving a colorful niche sure to catch the eye of art and design enthusiasts—who are also new parents. Check out this curated selection of some of the finest examples of this art movement.
Pop Art
Few things have outlasted its 15 minutes of fame as long as Andy Warhol's iconic prints have. From retro T-shirts and snappy home décor to limited edition must-haves such as Alien Workshop's Warhol-inspired skateboard decks, the artist has changed the way the world looks at soup cans and blonde bombshells by becoming part of everyday life. And now babies can be introduced to the artist's screen prints from day one by way of baby gear brand, Bugaboo. The limited edition Andy Warhol + Bugaboo collection features the artist's famous red flower and graphic car prints on the canopies of some of the brand's most popular stroller styles including the Bugaboo Bee, Bugaboo Cameleon3 and the Bugaboo Donkey. An electric blue flower parasol for strollers is also available. The collection is in stores now, but only for six months.

In the Bag
Best known for his simplistic yet quirky pottery and his eye for unique color combinations, furniture and homeware designer Jonathan Adler is expanding his retro cool lifestyle brand down to fashion for chic mamas. Along with bringing his original prints and designs to everyday essentials such as iPhone cases, stationary and socks (created by BabyLegs global licensee and distributor, United Legwear Co.), the New Yorker has linked up with Skip Hop to create a bold and graphic collection of diaper bags. The Skip Hop Jonathan Adler collection includes lightweight totes kitted out with insulated pockets for bottles, adjustable stroller straps and easy to clean laminated materials in three of Adler's signature prints, as well as the Pronto, an on-the-go changing station to store wipes, diapers and creams. And with prints that span black and white geometric squares to trendy Chevron designs, there's something for everyone.

Food for Thought
Fashion designer Jeremy Scott's designs have been called a lot of things: whimsical, crazy, avant-garde, controversial. His sneaker collaboration with Adidas Originals has introduced zany plush toys to the streets and his eponymous clothing line dresses men and women as comic book characters one season and in cow prints another. And now, thanks to his collaboration with German baby gear brand, Cybex, you can add delicious to that list. The joint project includes a collection of strollers, car seats and accessories done up in an exclusive Jeremy Scott-designed print. Inspired by his own childhood, Scott created a pop art "Food Fight" print for the products, featuring popcorn characters taking on burgers and soda bottles duking it out with a hotdog. The one-of-a-kind line will be out in stores later this year.
