Creed in Uncasville, Connecticut – Review + Exclusive Photo Gallery
Creed are currently making their way across the country on a very special anniversary tour. They set out on a retrospective trek to celebrate the 15th anniversary of their debut disc 'My Own Prison.' However, what started out as a handful of dates in a few select cities dubbed the '2 Nights Live' tour has turned into a full blown tour for the band.
The original idea was to play two nights in each city, one night featuring 'My Own Prison' from beginning to end and the second night performing their second disc 'Human Clay' from start to finish. However, due to popular demand, the tour has expanded, and some cities will only see Creed for one night. For the one-nighters, the band is alternating between the two albums, so if you really want to hear them both, you may have to plan on a road trip!
Over the weekend (April 21), Loudwire caught up with the tour at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn. 'Human Clay' was on tap for the night. Kicking the show off with 'Are You Ready?' the energy was high and that old magical synergy of Creed was in abundance, something that seemed to be lacking the last few times Creed toured.
Most notably, Scott Stapp's voice was in fighting shape, sounding better than ever. Stapp and guitarist Mark Tremonti played off of each other all night, and it was fun to watch. Having called the tour a way to reconnect with their fans, and with each other, it definitely seems to be working. By all accounts, the chemistry between the band members couldn't be stronger. (Check out our photo gallery below for visual proof!) Throughout the evening, the band powered through every song on 'Human Clay' and threw in a few bonus tracks for good measure.
In addition to the current tour, Creed are also working on a new disc, and are about at the halfway mark. Scott Stapp said they won't stop until they've made their best album to date but hopes to have it out by summer.

Andrew Webster brings you the Clemson Tigers preview today. Andrew writes the sports blog, The Church of Keith Jackson. One week from today, the games will be going, but, until then, dive into #9 Clemson. Why, you ask, is a young and strapping (just ask my mom) Canadian man writing a Clemson Tigers football preview? Because I'm better than you, that's why. So shall we get down to business, I think we shall? The Clemson Tigers have a lot of pressure on them this year, they play in South Carolina, a state where going 1-3 against ranked opponents last season and not winning a bowl game since 2006 just don't fly.
(Seriously look at their flag, are they muslim? I thought they still had the confederate thing going on.) Regardless, the purple and orange have re-up'd their head coach Tommy Bowden for another 4 years but if Clemson doesn't live up to at least SOME of their lofty expectations this year Bowden may be looking for work elsewhere. So as the AP preseason poll have the Tigers ranked 9th lets take a look at what's good and what's bad down in Pickens County. GOOD: -Cullen Harper: a 6'4 220 lb beer swillin' (only a guess), football throwin' machine. Harper was money last year, throwing 27 touchdowns to only 6 interceptions. As Harper goes through his senior season he should complete his maturation process and maybe, possibly, conceivably could become a candidate for the Heisman if not a 1st round draft pick in next year's NFL draft, maybe. He would have to perform better against ranked opponents (Harper threw 3 of his 6 INTs against ranked opponents in 07) but when you face facts Harper is the best quarterback in the ACC, fo sho. -Senior James Davis and Junior CJ Spiller running the ball: Sharing the rock has been a staple of good college football teams in the past, Ronnie Brown and Cadillac Williams come to mind. Put quite simply, Davis and Spiller are expected to tear shit up this year. It would not be a surprise to see Spiller and Davis each reach 1000 yards on the ground. Last year they came close with Davis putting up 1064 yards and Spiller coming close with 768 yards. Not only that but 20 pounds separates this tandem so we can't call them "Thunder and Lightning", thank god because I'm so sick of that nickname for running back duos, I much prefer "Moose and Squirrel" and hope to enter it to the football lexicon soon. BAD: The law: The Clemson Tigers, like many other ACC football teams, are having a pickle of a time trying to keep their players out of the clink. Case in point; DeAndre McDaniel may face time for assault and battery charges laid against him by a female Clemson student, I heard something about a pillow case over the head but these are just rumors people. McDaniels did recently agree to do PTI, not Tony and Wilbon but what's called a "pre-trial intervention". According to the Charleston Post and Courier the PTI would involve getting McDaniel "…to deal with his frustration without pounding on someone." Oh irony, is there anything you cannot make hilarious? -The offensive line: Bottom line is this; Tommy Bowden may start up to 3 freshmen on the O-line, yikes. The ACC is renowned for pumping out some of the best defensive linemen in the country and having these young'ns try and stop the front line of Miami, Florida State or Virginia Tech could get ugly. Lets move to audio-visual stimulation. Imagine the cheerleader is Cullen Harper, the piece of paper is the Clemson O-line and the players are, well, players. It may look something like this:
I never get sick of that. -Death Valley: We, as college football fans, cannot allow multiple stadiums to have the same nicknames. LSU and Clemson need to play each other for the right to call their stadium Death Valley, this must happen. UGLY:- Wendy's: I was told I would get a paragraph to bash someone or something or some such. So I choose Wendy's. I know their square burgers are the envy of the fast food world but Wendy is a fickle bitch. Why is it that everytime Ms. Wendy comes out with a new and delicious sandwich she only takes it away from those who love it after a month? Most recently many of my burger eating chums lamented the loss of the Spicy Baconator. To me, a Wendy's vet, it was nothing new. Oh, I remember the days of the Wild Mountain Chicken Sandwich and how she snatched that away from our hands. Wendy stop playing with our grease covered hearts!
He's just checking if he remembered to wipe…mmm the smell of failure

Research and general acceptance
Vegetarianism refers to the practice of excluding meat, poultry, and fish from the diet. The word was coined in 1847, when the Vegetarian Society of the United Kingdom—the oldest organized vegetarian group in the world—was founded in Ramsgate, Kent. The Society, which has included George Bernard Shaw and Mahatma Gandhi among its members, chose the word vegetarian for its name because it is derived from
Based on the 2003 American Dietetic Association pyramid and the Dietitians of Canada rainbow. The recommended servings and foods are intended to accommodate the needs of vegans as well as those of less strict vegetarians. (Illustration by GGS Information Services/Thomson Gale.)
the Latin vegetus, which means "lively" or "vigorous," and because it suggests the English word vegetable. Vegetarianism is better understood as a lifestyle rather than a diet in the strict sense, as there are many specific plant-based diets that could be called vegetarian.
There are several distinctive subgroups of vegetarians:
- Vegans: Sometimes called strict vegetarians, vegans are people who exclude all animal products from their diet or clothing, whether or not they involve the death of an animal. Vegans will not use honey or dairy products, for example, and will not wear clothing made of wool, silk, fur, or leather, or use bedding stuffed with down.
- Ovolactovegetarians: Vegetarians in this category will use eggs, milk, and other dairy products on the grounds that these foods are not obtained by killing animals.
- Ovovegetarians: Vegetarians who will include eggs in the diet but not milk or milk products.
- Lactovegetarians: Vegetarians who will use milk and milk products but not eggs.
- Semivegetarians or pesce/pollo vegetarians: People who include fish or chicken in the diet but also seek to minimize their consumption of animal protein.
- Fruitarians: Vegetarians who eat only fruits, nuts, seeds, and other plant matter that can be harvested without harming the plant.
- Flexitarians: Persons who prefer a vegetarian diet but are willing to eat meat, fish, or chicken on exceptional occasions.
- Freegans: Anti-consumerist vegans who seek to avoid participating in any practices they regard as exploitative of other people or the environment, in addition to excluding meat and animal products from their diet. Freegans obtain their food by growing it themselves, by barter, or by foraging in refuse bins and restaurant trash receptacles for discarded food. This practice is called "dumpster diving" in the United States and "skipping" in the United Kingdom.
Religious vegetarianism
Religious belief is the oldest historical motive for vegetarianism. Hinduism is the earliest of the world's major religions known to have encouraged a vegetarian lifestyle. As of the early 2000s, Hinduism accounts for more of the world's practicing vegetarians—70 percent— than any other faith or political conviction. Different Hindus, however, explain their commitment to vegetarianism in different ways. Some associate vegetarianism with the doctrine of ahimsa, or nonviolence, which forbids the shedding of animal as well as human blood. Others believe that animals have souls, and that those who kill them will acquire bad karma and suffer in their next reincarnation. Last, some Hindus believe that their gods will not accept nonvegetarian offerings.
The Jain religion, which is an ascetic offshoot of Hinduism that began in the sixth century BC, requires followers to adopt a vegan diet; they may also not eat roots because to do so kills the plant. Most Jains fast on holy days and at other times throughout the year, as they believe that fasting strengthens self-control as well as protecting the believer from accumulating bad karma.
In ancient Greece, the followers of the philosopher and mathematician Pythagoras (c. 582–507 BC) practiced an ascetic lifestyle that included a vegetarian diet and abstaining from animal bloodshed, including sacrifices to the Greek gods. Neoplatonist philosophers of the third and fourth centuries AD revived the Pythagorean notion that vegetarianism helps to purify the soul. As a result of the association of a plant-based diet with Pythagoras, European Christians in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries who practiced vegetarianism were often called Pythagoreans.
Mainstream Christianity in both its Eastern and Western forms has never made year-round vegetarianism mandatory for laypeople; however, there is a long tradition of monastic vegetarianism going back at least as far as the Desert Fathers in the third and fourth centuries AD. In addition, many Christians abstain from meat during certain seasons of the church year (Lent and Advent). One reason for vegetarian diets in some of the monastic orders is the belief that eating meat increases temptations to anger and violence. Another reason, found more commonly among evangelical Protestants, is the interpretation of Genesis 1:29 and other Bible passages as meaning that God originally intended humans to be vegetarians, and that God wants his present-day followers to be responsible stewards of the earth. The Christian Vegetarian Association (CVA), which welcomes Roman Catholics as well as mainstream and evangelical Protestants, was founded in 1999.
One Christian denomination that was formed in the United States in the nineteenth century, namely the Seventh-day Adventist Church, has expected its members to be vegetarians since its beginning. Members of the church have been studied by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the National Cancer Institute (NCI) since 1960. NIH findings indicate that Adventist men live on average seven years longer than men in the general population, and Adventist women eight years longer than their non-Adventist counterparts.
Many members of New Age groups, as well as some atheists and agnostics, practice vegetarian or vegan lifestyles out of respect for nature or for the earth, even though they would not consider themselves religious in the conventional sense.
Environmental vegetarianism
The application of scientific methods to agriculture in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries also allowed people to calculate for the first time the cost to the environment of raising animals for meat. As early as the 1770s, the English clergyman William Paley had already urged a vegetarian lifestyle on the grounds that an acre of land used to raise fruits and vegetables could support twice the number of people as an acre used to graze animals. A common ethical argument for vegetarianism in the early 2000s is that 40% of the world's grain goes to feed animals raised for meat rather than to feed people, and that world hunger could be eliminated if even half this grain could be redistributed to undernourished populations. According to the North American Vegetarian Society (NAVS), 15 vegans can be fed on the same amount of land needed to feed one person consuming a meat-based diet.
Animal rights vegetarianism
Commitment to a vegetarian diet as a way to reduce the suffering of animals—sometimes called compassion-based vegetarianism—emerged during the mid-nineteenth century, a period that also witnessed the foundation of the first groups devoted to animal welfare. The Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA) was given its charter by
Queen Victoria in 1840, seven years before the organization of the Vegetarian Society. The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) was founded in New York City by Henry Bergh in 1866. In addition to ongoing concern about maltreatment of household pets and working animals, the advent of so-called factory farming in the twentieth century has intensified the revulsion many people feel regarding the use of animals for human dietary consumption and clothing.
The 2003 vegetarian food guide
- Grains: The foundation of the vegetarian diet. Whole grains are best, but enriched refined grains are also acceptable.
- Vegetables and fruits: The ADA and DC recommend that vegetarians choose both vegetables and fruits rather than using only one or the other.
- Legumes, nuts, and other protein-rich foods: Legumes include soy milk and tofu. Dairy products used by ovo-and lactovegetarians also fall into this category, as do meat substitutes.
- Fats: Vegetarians who do not eat fish require plant-based sources of n-3 fats.
- Calcium-rich foods: Adult vegetarians require eight servings from this category each day. Each serving, however, counts toward one of the other food choices, as calcium-rich foods can be found across the other food groups.
The minimum number of servings per food group in this diet would provide about 1400 or 1500 calories per day. Nonsedentary adults can meet higher energy needs by choosing more servings from any of the basic five groups. Sweets and alcohol should be used only sparingly.
Dietary supplements are recommended for vegetarians over 50 and for vegans, based on studies conducted by the Institute of Medicine (IOM). These guidelines are described more fully under Risks below.
Some specific vegetarian diets
Vegetarian diets can accommodate a wide variety of regional and ethnic cuisines as well as different philosophical or religious approaches. The following are only a few of the possible choices:
MEDITERRANEAN DIET. In its origin, the Mediterranean diet was not a purely vegetarian diet. It is, however, sparing in its use of red meat and eggs, and low in its use of fish and poultry. It can thus be easily adapted to a vegetarian or pesce/pollo vegetarian diet. The Mediterranean diet is high in its use of whole grains, fruits, nuts, and high-fiber vegetables; it appeals to many people because of its wide choice of flavorful foods.
MACROBIOTIC DIET. The macrobiotic diet, which was brought to Europe and North America from Japan in the 1960s, is associated with the Eastern concepts of yin and yang as well as with the elimination of animal products from the diet. This diet also involves such changes in eating habits as chewing each mouthful of food at least 50 times, drinking liquids only when thirsty, avoiding the use of aluminum cook-ware, and cooking foods on a wood stove rather than using electrical appliances.
ORNISH DIET. Developed by a medical doctor to reverse the signs of heart disease, the Ornish diet has also been popularized as a weight-loss program. It is a strict low-fat, high-fiber diet that excludes red meat, poultry, and fish, although persons following this diet may use limited amounts of egg whites, fat-free milk, and other fat-free dairy products.
SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST DIET. Seventh-day Adventists (SDAs) have followed vegetarian dietary regimens since the denomination was first organized in 1863. The diet recommended by the church's General Conference Nutrition Council (GCNC) in the early 2000s is an ovolactovegetarian diet high in whole-grain breads and pastas, fresh vegetables and fruits; moderate use of nuts, seeds, and low-fat dairy products; and limited use of eggs. Some SDAs prefer a vegan diet. The church has its own professional organization for dietitians, which is affiliated with the ADA, and encourages all its members to follow the ADA guidelines for vegetarians.
Tips for starting a vegetarian diet
The ADA offers the following suggestions for persons considering vegetarianism:
- List all the meatless dishes that you already like to eat. Pizza, chili, vegetable soups, salads, bean casseroles, Oriental stir-fried vegetables, and pasta dishes are common favorites.
- Look through some vegetarian cookbooks and copy the recipes that appeal to you.
- Check out natural food stores and try some of their products.
- Visit ethnic restaurants—Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Indian, Vietnamese, or Middle Eastern are good choices—and sample some of their meatless dishes.
- Try meat substitutes (sometimes called meat analogues or "mock meat") made from textured vegetable protein (TVP) or tofu (bean curd). Veggie burgers, veggie hot dogs, and imitation sausage are popular items of this type.
Vegetarian diets are adopted by people in developed countries primarily for ethical or religious reasons rather than economic necessity—although some nutritionists do point out that plant-based foods are usually easier on the household food budget than meat. Another more recent reason is the growing perception that plant-based diets are a form of preventive health care for people at increased risk of such diseases as heart disease, type 2 diabetes and some forms of cancer. Adolescents, however, are more likely to adopt vegetarian diets as a weight reduction regimen.
The long-term NIH study of Seventh-day Adven-tists began to report in the 1970s and 1980s that lowered blood pressure, lower rates of cardiovascular disease and stroke, lower blood cholesterol levels, and lowered risks of colon and prostate cancer are associated with a vegetarian diet. In particular, SDAs were only half as likely to develop type 2 (adult-onset) diabetes as were nonvegetarian Caucasians. Although it is possible to gain weight on a vegetarian diet, most people lose weight, especially in the first few months; and most vegetarians have lower body mass indices (an important diagnostic criterion of obesity) than their meat-eating counterparts.
Several studies carried out in Germany and Austria reported in 2006 that vegetarian diets appear to be effective in lowering the risk of rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis, kidney disease, gallstones, diverticulitis, and dementia as well as heart attacks, stroke, and diabetes.
In addition to lowering the risk of chronic degenerative diseases, vegetarian diets have also been shown to be useful in treating constipation in adults and children, and dysmenorrhea (painful menstrual periods) in women of childbearing age.
The ADA strongly recommends that people consult a registered dietitian as well as their primary physician before starting a vegetarian diet. The reason for this precaution is the variety of vegetarian regimens as well as the variations in height, weight, age, genetic inheritance, food preferences, level of activity, geographic location, and preexisting health problems among people. A nutritionist can also help design a diet that a new vegetarian will enjoy eating as well as getting adequate nourishment and other health benefits.
The longstanding concern about vegetarian diets is the risk of nutritional deficiencies, particularly for such important nutrients as protein, minerals (iron, calcium, and zinc), vitamins (vitamin D, riboflavin, vitamin B12, and vitamin A), iodine, and n-3 fatty acids. The 2003 vegetarian food guide recommends that vegetarians over 50 years of age as well as vegans in all age groups should take supplements of vitamin B12 and vitamin D, or use foods fortified with these nutrients. Vitamin D supplements are particularly important for vegans living in northern latitudes or other situations in which they receive little sun exposure.
In addition to nutritional concerns, there is some evidence that vegetarian diets may actually increase the risk of breast cancer in women, particularly in those who use large amounts of soy-based products. Soybeans contain phytoestrogens, or plant estrogens, which have been implicated in breast cancer. The plant estrogens in soy-based products may also explain why vegetarians have a disproportionate number of female babies, and why these girls have a higher rate of precocious puberty than girls born to nonvegetarian mothers.
General acceptance
The ADA has a professional subgroup called the Vegetarian Nutrition Dietary Practice Group, or DPG, which publishes a quarterly newsletter called Vegetarian Nutrition Update, available to nonmem-bers of the ADA for an annual subscription fee of $25. The Vegetarian Nutrition DPG also has its own website at http://www.vegetariannutrition.net/index.htm, with articles available to the public on vegetarian diets and cancer prevention, treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, sports nutrition, pregnancy, and vegan diets for children.
Once considered an eccentricity, vegetarianism is widely accepted by the general public in developed countries as a legitimate dietary option in the early 2000s. The ADA and DC state that about 2.5% of adults (defined as people over 18 years of age) in the United States and 4% of Canadian adults follow vegetarian diets. The Vegetarian Resource Group (VRG), a nonprofit research organization, conducted a poll in 2006. It estimated that 2.3% of adults in the United States—4.7 million people—are vegetarians, with a third to a half of this group being vegans. In addition, the VRG notes that 30 to 40% of American adults choose vegetarian dishes over meat dishes at least some of the time. Other interesting details from the 2006 poll:
- People between 45 and 54 years of age are almost twice as likely to be vegetarians as people between 18 and 24 years of age.
- The Northeast has the highest percentage of vegetarians in the general population, with the South having the lowest.
- People who have graduated from college are twice as likely to be vegetarians as those who did not complete high school.
- Hispanics are more likely to be vegetarians than either Caucasians or African Americans.
- There is no correlation between household income and a vegetarian lifestyle as of the early 2000s; people at all income levels seem to be equally likely to become vegetarians.
Most opposition to vegetarianism in developed countries is interpersonal rather than scientific or political, as some vegetarians develop a sense of moral or spiritual superiority to nonvegetarians and make themselves socially unpopular by criticizing or lecturing others for continuing to eat meat. NAVS advises new vegetarians, "Be cheerful about your choices [but] remember to let people come to their own dietary conclusions."
As has been noted in Europe as well as the United States, the emphasis in medical research on vegetarian diets has shifted in the early 2000s from concern about nutritional deficiencies in people following these diets to the role of vegetarianism in preventing or treating chronic diseases. It was the NIH's studies of Seventh-day Adventists that first indicated that vegetarian diets lower the risk of heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes. The Adventist Health Study received new funding in 2003 for its continuation. As of early 2007, the NIH is conducting five additional clinical trials to evaluate the advantages of vegetarian diets in managing uremia in the elderly, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and postmenopausal disorders in women as well as treating obesity.
One area of concern, however, is in veterinary medicine—namely, the trend among some pet owners to put dogs and cats on vegetarian diets, often with homemade foods. Cats in particular are at risk of malnutrition and eventual blindness on a vegetarian or vegan diet because they are obligate carnivores (must have meat in the diet). Their bodies cannot form taurine (an amino acid), thiamine, retinol (a form of vitamin A essential to healthy eye tissue), and vitamin B12—all micronutrients found primarily in meat. The Vegetarian Society (UK) has an information sheet warning against putting cats on a vegetarian diet, while the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) strongly urges vegetarian pet owners to consult their veterinarian before offering either dogs or cats vegetarian pet food.

Cardinals move back into NL Central tie
Pirates next head to Miller Park for three-game series
PITTSBURGH — Joe Kelly rose to the occasion again for the St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday.
For the second time in a month, the right-hander helped the Cardinals avoid being swept at PNC Park as he pitched six strong innings to beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 7-2.
Just don't call him a stopper, though.
"If people want to call me that, that's fine, but I don't look at myself that way," Kelly said. "I'm just trying to win the game."
The Cardinals moved into a first-place tie atop the National League Central standings with the Pirates by salvaging the last game of a three-game series. Both teams are 79-57 and will meet for the final time in the regular season in a three-game series at St. Louis beginning Friday night.
Kelly (7-3) gave up only one run and four hits while striking out five and walking two. Exactly one month earlier, he beat the Pirates to keep the Cardinals from being swept in a five-game series.
"Every team that's fighting for a playoff spot has that Joe Kelly, who comes around late in the season and lifts you," St. Louis third baseman David Freese said. "He's been our stopper. He's picked us up in a lot of big situations over the last couple of months."
Since being moved into the rotation from the bullpen July 6, Kelly has gone 7-0 with a 2.15 ERA in 10 starts while also winning his last four starts. He has allowed one earned run or less in seven of those 10 starts.
"You never know who will step up and be that guy," Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said. "Our starters, overall, have had a strong season but you're going to have times when guys wear down a little bit. Right now we have a few guys who are on the way back to hitting their stride but Joe is already there."
Meanwhile, Pirates rookie left-hander Kris Johnson (0-2) had a disastrous first major league start as he was tagged for five runs and seven hits in two-plus innings after being recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis. Johnson walked two and struck out one.
It was quite a contrast to Johnson's other appearance Aug. 19 when he worked six innings and allowed two runs in a 16-inning loss to Arizona.
"He didn't come anywhere near having the command he did today that he had against the Diamondbacks," Pittsburgh manager Clint Hurdle said. "That was the difference today."
Johnson said he was more nervous about starting than being thrown into a tie game in the 11th inning of his debut.
"Maybe it's anticipation, the feeling of not knowing and all of a sudden you're in the game and you don't have time to think about it," Johnson said. "I'm used to starting. Maybe it was just anticipation, maybe nerves. It was a big situation."
Matt Carpenter, Shane Robinson, Allen Craig and Yadier Molina each had two of St. Louis' 12 hits as the Cardinals broke out after being outscored 22-1 while losing their three previous games. Molina lifted his batting average to .329 after going 2-for-15 in his previous four games.
The Cardinals jumped on Johnson early by scoring three first-inning runs.
Carpenter led off with a double, Robinson walked then Craig and Molina hit consecutive RBI singles with one out. A walk to Freese loaded the bases and Jon Jay followed with a sacrifice fly to make it 3-0.
Freese's two-run double in the third scored Craig and Molina, who had opened the inning with back-to-back singles, and knocked Johnson from the game.
St. Louis extended its lead to 7-0 in the sixth when Matt Holiday hit a two-run single that drove in Kelly and Carpenter, who had also singled.
Marlon Byrd drove in Pittsburgh's first run with a single in the sixth, scoring Andrew McCutchen, who was hit on the right elbow with a pitch from Kelly. Byrd scored then scored the second run in the ninth when he doubled and came home on John Buck's single.
Byrd finished 2-for-3 with a walk and is 7-for-19 (.368) with five RBIs in five games since being acquired Tuesday from the New York Mets in a trade.
Justin Morneau went 1-for-3 with one walk in his Pirates' debut, one day after coming over from the Minnesota Twins in a trade.
"This place is unreal when they pack it out," Freese said. "It's a playoff-like environment and you can tell their guys love playing here. For us to come back out in a day game and win after scoring one run the first two nights was really big."
NOTES: St. Louis activated C Tony Cruz from the 15-day disabled list and recalled OF Adron Chambers from Triple-A Memphis on Sunday as the major league roster limit expanded to 40 from 25. … In addition to adding Johnson, Pittsburgh activated OF Travis Snider from the 15-day DL and selected RHP Kyle Farnsworth from Indianapolis. Farnsworth worked one scoreless inning. … The Cardinals sent RHP Michael Blazek to the Milwaukee Brewers to complete the trade in which they acquired RHP John Axford on Friday. … St. Louis RF Carlos Beltran (back tightness) was held out of the starting lineup. … The Pirates open a three-game series at Milwaukee on Monday afternoon as RHP Charlie Morton (6-3, 2.14 ERA) will face RHP Tyler Thornburg (1-0, 1.94). … RHP Adam Wainwright (15-8, 2.96) will start for the Cardinals at Cincinnati on Monday afternoon in the first game of a three-game series, facing Reds RHP Mat Latos (13-5, 3.03).

I am considering [positive] charge distributions $\rho:M\rightarrow\mathbb{R}_+$ (nonnegative reals) with unit charge $\int_M\rho=1$ for convenience. Here $M$ is a nice-enough region, say a submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^n$ (or perhaps simply a metric space ?).
The electrostatic energy is (up to constant factor) $W=\int_M\rho V$, where $V(r)=\frac{\rho(r)}{r}$ is the potential at distance $r$. We can rewrite this $W=\int_M \frac{\rho(x)\rho(x')}{|x-x'|}dx\ dx'$.
What charge distributions minimize the energy for a given region?
In dimension $n=3$, for a bounded region $M\subset\mathbb{R}^3$, charges are being placed on a conductor (which by definition is an object where charges are free to move). Charges seek minimum potential $V$, and end up moving out and lieing on the boundary $\partial M$. One way to see this is via Earnshaw's theorem, which says that there is no stable equilibrium for a collection of charges acted upon only by electrostatic forces (hence the minimum is attained on a boundary, which provides a normal force). A minimum potential (for a collection of charges) corresponds to a minimum energy $W$, since general $\rho=\frac{1}{n}\sum^n_{i=1}\delta(x-x_i)$ gives $W=\frac{1}{n}\sum_iV(x_i)$.
So in this case I know that any $\rho$ will be zero on the interior of $M$... but how does $\rho$ behave on $\partial M$? I seem to have reduced the problem to compact manifolds without boundary. A brief electric-field argument shows that the boundary is actually at an equipotential $V_0$, which gives the minimum $W$.
Is it true/obvious that $\rho=\frac{1}{4\pi}$ on $M=S^2$ ? (yes, see Henry Cohn's answer below)
But for dimension $n=1,2$ the charges do NOT all run to the boundary. It is a fact (Am. J. of Phys. 61, 1993 by R. Friedberg) that the distribution on a conducting disk is not zero on the interior. And charge on a conducting needle does not all go to the ends (Am. J. of Phys. 64, 1996 by D. Griffiths). **These are the n-dimensional objects, so that the boundary of a needle is two points and the boundary of a disk is a circle.
Sorry if my questions/thoughts are too broad... I was just randomly proposing a physics problem to myself. I will clarify / be more specific if necessary.

Lawrence promises new strategic vision, concrete plans and exchanges of ideas
Investiture of 8th president focuses on bedrock values of Brandeis
Fred Lawrence pledged to address both the uncertainties of the global future and the hopes of the campus community for new beginnings and an improved environment as he was invested as Brandeis University's eighth president.
"In the coming months, I will lay out a strategic vision with concrete plans for securing Brandeis' place as an elite, global liberal arts institution," Lawrence told a crowd of nearly 1,500 faculty, students and alumni who had laughed and cheered as he reviewed the university's history and his own before making his promises.
On campus, he pledged, "We will listen. We will be open to new ideas. We will encourage open debate. We will lead by example."
Visit the inauguration website.
|Watch President Fred
Lawrence's Address
Watch Highlights of the
Inaugural Ball
The 90-minute ceremony, attended by scores of representatives of leading colleges and universities, was replete with academic regalia in rainbow colors. Musical interludes were provided by the Brandeis Wellesley Orchestra, the Brandeis Chorus and J. Bernard Calloway, who received his master of fine arts degree in 2000 and currently has a starring role in the Broadway show "Memphis."
Numerous academic and alumni groups greeted the new president with messages of optimism and support, including Faculty Senate Chair Timothy J. Hickey '77, who said the faculty has been impressed with Lawrence's "open leadership style [and his] demonstrated ability to unite the community."
Ralph D. Gants, associate justice of the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts, offered greetings from the Commonwealth. Northwestern University President Morton O. Schapiro also offered humorous advice to his fellow president.
Schapiro recalled Clark Kerr's statement on being dismissed by Ronald Reagan from the presidency of the University of California that he was leaving the job as he entered it — "fired with enthusiasm." He expressed hopes that, given the strains of the job, Lawrence would be blessed with, among other things, the wisdom of Solomon and the stomach of a goat.
Though he complained good-naturedly that Schapiro's was a hard act to follow, from the beginning it was Lawrence's day, and his personal engagement was evident everywhere. When Professor Nancy Armstrong opened the proceedings with a vibrant rendition of "America," the new president softly but noticeably joined in her singing of the little-known fourth stanza with which she concluded. The opening prayer by Rabbi William Hamilton of Congregation Kehillath Israel in Brookline, where Lawrence is a longtime member, referred to the president's family "who are here today," and to those "who are here in spirit," an invocation of Lawrence's parents, whose lives and lessons he cites frequently.
He had bear hugs for former presidents Jehuda Reinharz Ph.D. '72 and Samuel Thier, and for many other friends and dignitaries who participated in the program. Reinharz and Lawrence embraced a second time after the incoming president praised his predecessor and friend of 20 years for his dedication to Brandeis and "his leadership and grace in passing the baton to me."
|Brandeis' generations came to the celebration
Generations of supporters came to celebrate President Fred Lawrence's inauguration, sharing stories, ideas and chocolate éclairs.
Among the sea of peer institution presidents, faculty, staff and students who came to witness the festivities was Rich Kalish, '80, medical director for Boston Medical Center's Healthnet community health centers. He said today's celebration was everything that he was looking for.
"President Lawrence really caught the essence of Brandeis, what I like to look back at as some of my best times," Kalish said. "The social justice ideas that he pulled to are something that I've tried to keep close to my heart in my life and in my career."
Marian Levin, 91, hails from Chicago where her community ran the largest book sale in the country to support Brandeis during its early years. She was chairman of the Brandeis Women's Committee, rose to national chairman then became the national vice president.
Levin said she would travel cross-country with a slide projector teaching various library chapters how to run book sales. She did it, she said, because she felt drawn to the university and its values.
"Brandeis was so different for its time," said Levin. "I felt that I wanted to do something for the university and what better than to support the library."
Student union president Daniel Acheampong '11, a speaker during the inauguration, said he immediately connected with Lawrence the first time that they met and wasn't at all nervous speaking about him up on the podium.
"It's an honor for me to be part of the celebration," said Acheampong. "As both the student union president and a friend of Fred's."
The bulk of the inaugural address was an expression of commitment to the liberal arts rooted in Lawrence's personal history and in the stories of Brandeis graduates whose lives were changed by their years here. He asserted that commitments to the liberal arts and sciences, to diversity and to social justice together comprise the rock upon which Brandeis stands.
"The challenge we face is literally to justify the liberal arts commitment on which we are founded," Lawrence said. "Let us, at every opportunity reject the false dichotomy between so-called practical or trade-directed education on the one hand and liberal arts on the other, because I believe with all my heart that a true liberal arts education is the most practical education there is."
"We cannot know, we can in fact hardly imagine, the workplace of decades hence," he said. "But I can assure you that the following skills will be required then: The ability to turn information into knowledge, the ability to analyze closely, the ability to solve problems, the ability to communicate."
On a personal level, Lawrence recalled his grandfather and his mother, who was the first in her family to go to a fulltime college.
"The fact that his daughter could read and understand French poetry meant everything to him," Lawrence said of his grandfather. The man understood not a word of the poetry, Lawrence said, but "he understood the value of the liberal arts."
Turning to his intention to lay out a strategic vision and concrete plans for the university, he said this means, in part, that the university must establish new partnerships in locations around the globe; he noted this has begun already in some places, such as Latin America, Israel and East Asia.
"We must preserve the essence of liberal arts teaching and adapt it to the 21st century, and think of ways to take advantage of technology to enhance our teaching," he said. "What takes place one-on-one will never be replaced, but let us not be afraid" of new technologies and new opportunities to build upon the university's strengths and to expand its base.
Unsurprisingly, Lawrence said he had spent much time thinking about the example of Justice Louis Brandeis in the weeks leading up to his investiture. He concluded his remarks with two challenges to his audience — one based on a quote from Brandeis, the other on a quote from Henry David Thoreau that was brought to his attention years ago by his wife, Kathy, a scholar of 19th Century American literature and art.
"Justice Brandeis reminds us all — students and faculty alike — that we come here not merely to understand the world but to help repair it," Lawrence said. "We enter to learn; we leave to serve."
He reminded listeners of Thoreau's idea that, because people inevitably only hit what they aim for, they should aim high.
"Let us right now pledge to each other to keep our aim high indeed," Lawrence said. "There is literally no limit to what we can achieve. We are only limited by our imagination...."
Lawrence, a native of Long Island, received a bachelor's degree in 1977 from Williams College and a law degree in 1980 from Yale Law School. He began his legal career in 1980 as clerk to Judge Amalya L. Kearse of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. He was an assistant U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, where he was chief of the Civil Rights Unit.
In 1988, he joined the faculty of the Boston University School of Law and taught courses on civil rights enforcement and civil rights crimes, criminal law, and civil procedure. He also served as the school's associate dean for academic affairs from 1996 to 1999. He was dean of George Washington University Law School before coming to Brandeis.
Lawrence has written, lectured and testified widely on civil rights crimes and is the author of "Punishing Hate: Bias Crimes Under American Law," which examines bias-motivated violence and how such crimes are dealt with in the United States.

Kevin Foley Photography
Brand Me!
My name is Kevin Foley and I am a professional photographer specializing in weddings. I love creating lasting connections with my clients and producing pictures that emphasize that connection. It's important to me that my clients are taken care of and our relationship goes past the job I've been hired to do. Prospective clients make great future friends!
My new blog is up at kevinfoleyblog.com and as you can see it is logo-less and brand-less! This is where you step up to the plate.
I live and work in Hawaii and am looking to brand myself as an upscale wedding photographer here. I am targeting successful, 20-something, intelligent, fun-loving brides/couples.
I'd prefer my logo incorporate a professional, clean, fun and creative elegance, while maintaining some masculinity.
I'll be using my logo several places. Among them: the headers of my websites, my business cards, as a small identifying watermark on my images, etc.
I am leaning toward wanting some sort of design element that perhaps alludes to Hawaii or the tropics/island atmosphere in some way, though it is not a necessity. No cartoons or clip art please.
I'd prefer a clear typeface that will stand out. As my logo will be watermarking images, this is pretty important.
The logo should work well in color and black and white with the ability to be watermarked gracefully onto my images.
Feel free to go outside the box with me. I want branding that is going to stand out from the crowd and BE me in the future.
Thanks to all!

It is hard to believe that these slow-simmered mushrooms were my favorite part of the meal last weekend. You know something's good when it almost outshines Beef Tenderloin. Even Mike (a known non-mushroom fan) took a liking to them. They had almost transformed after being simmered in cabernet all day a turned an amazing deep purple color.
They are completely effortless to prepare - you just have to make them early in the day so they have time to cook about 4-6 hours and make the transformation.
Cabernet & Thyme Mushrooms
Get my Printable Recipes, here.
1 stick of butter
4 cloves of garlic
4 cups of Mushrooms (I used baby bella), cut in half
1/2 bottle of Cabernet
2 cups of beef broth
2 teaspoons of sea salt
6 sprigs of thyme
In a medium/large heavy pot, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds, then add mushrooms and cook for 2 minutes. Add wine, broth, salt & thyme. Reduce heat to a low simmer and cook, covered for 4-6 hours.
Looks like a great way to start a recipe - all of my favorite things.
Be careful not to burn the garlic, keep the heat low.
Add mushrooms and let them begin to soften and absorb the butter.
Add wine, broth, sea salt and thyme. Rosemary would also work - especially around the holidays.
Simmer on low (or put in the oven covered) for 4-6 hours until the mushrooms have absorbed the wine and become deep purple.
I served the mushrooms piled next to the Slow-Roasted Beef Tenderloin and Roasted Colorful Carrots at our Dinner Party with friends last weekend. More of the recipes coming this week... including Baked Truffle Parmesan Fries!

Matthew Robertson was born and raised in San Francisco and graduated from the Academy of Art University in 2012 with a BFA in illustration. He currently lives and works in Berkeley, California. Robertson's technical oil paintings are simultaneously chaotic and controlled as he masterfully weaves the two components into one canvas to intuitively explore the tenuous balance between real and abstract forms. The new series vibrates with a sense of innocence described by bold colors, geometric forms, and spontaneous lines which merge together harmoniously with an expert sense of realism, to create a body of work that is both nostalgic and contemporary.

The Phillies have six runs and their offense is total slop tonight.
The Phillies have six runs and their offense is total slop tonight.
The reds are very jittery. Maybe they have to be completely out of it (down 2-0) before they can relax? If so, they CAN still win
BTW... did the commentators even mention that Utley wasn't hit or that he didn't touch the base? If they did, I must have been out of the room... and I don't think I've left!

Too much gloom and doom on this thread.
Reds aren't yet a World Series team.
Be happy they are in the playoffs and don't fret too much over this.
Walt should continue to build the team and they will soon be able to go deep in the playoffs.

In the seven years since its creation, Twitter has been used to spark revolutions, allow fans to chat with celebrities and spread news from the farthest corners of the world.
But can it make money?
The company is taking the first steps to answering that challenge on Thursday, opening itself for sale to investors in an initial public offering that is expected to raise nearly $2 billion and will test its ability to leverage its 232 million users into profits.
U.S. & World
Trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol TWTR at a starting price of $26 a share, the company is being valued at $18 billion based on outstanding stock, options and restricted stock expected to be available after the IPO, according to The Associated Press. Twitter is seeking to join the world's biggest Internet properties, a stage dominated by Apple, Google and Facebook.
Next to them, Twitter can seem like a skinny adolescent. It suffered through frequent management changes and boardroom clashes before turning to an "adult" CEO for guidance and stability. Revenue is exploding, thanks in part to the development of the "promoted tweet" and marketing partnerships with the television industry. But losses are mounting as well, and its growth in Twitter users has slowed significantly.
Still, Twitter arguably could not have picked a better time to go public. The bullish stock market is fielding a bumper crop of IPOs, and on Wednesday the Dow Jones industrial average closed at an all-time high.
Twitter's IPO's success, and its stock's long-term performance, will help determine whether the company can become, in the words of CEO Dick Costolo, "the pulse of the planet" without losing its focus.
Twitter has tremendous power and reach -– it was instrumental in the Arab Spring uprisings and is, for millions of news consumers, the first digital draft of history — but observers say it runs the risk of being drowned by the deluge of 500 million or so messages it handles on a daily basis.
"It's fair to say that people have a harder time defining the appeal and value of Twitter relative to other social networks," said Scott Kessler, an analyst at S&P Capital IQ. "Facebook is a social network for friends. LinkedIn is a social network for business contacts. But people have a harder time describing Twitter. They need to do a better job communicating what they are, what they offer and how to get value from the platform."
With 70 million shares available on the market, the central concern among investors is whether Twitter can become profitable and, if so, how long that will take.
Twitter took in $317 million in revenues in 2012 but lost about $80 million. Revenues soared this year, to $422 million, but losses did too, to $134 million.
Facebook, by comparison, reported an annual profit of $1 billion before its May 2012 IPO. Its 1.2 billion users dwarf Twitter's.
But Facebook's IPO, listed on Nasdaq, is generally considered a failure. It overstated its initial asking price, was beset by trading delays and other glitches and ended the day up just 23 cents higher than its $38 IPO price.
Facebook's stock price has since climbed by about 28 percent.
Twitter hopes to learn from Facebook's IPO missteps.
Many analysts thought the company deliberately listed its initial price for institutional investors on the low side. Twitter started at a projected price range of $17 to $20 a share, then rose to a range of $23 to $25 a share before settling on $26 after markets closed Wednesday.
Investors took that as a sign of high demand heading into the IPO on Thursday.
The company has said it will channel the proceeds of the IPO into operating expenses and capital spending. It is also expected to fund the acquisition of other companies.
For now, Twitter is hoping for what is known in the business as a first-day "pop," in which the stock price jumps during the early hours of trading.
When the initial clamor over the IPO passes, Kessler said, investors and analysts will look at Twitter's operations for its handling of three key goals: sharpening its brand definition, moving closer to profitability and generating more revenue through new advertising products, mobile platforms and international markets.
"As much excitement as there has been around the company and the IPO, they have to demonstrate that they can generate profits sooner rather than later," Kessler said.
Twitter has been vague about its advertising plans and when it expects to get into the black.
Kessler thinks it won't happen until 2015. Anything later, he said, could be seen by investors as a disappointment.

The strong gusty winds of the last few days have died down and the Gulf of Mexico waters are calmer. So is Charlie Manuel.
Amazing what three straight wins will do for a team, manager, the fans and my personality.
Stepping up today were Cole Hamels and Geoff Jenkins. Cole was his dominating self for six innings and received a large round of applause when he walked to the clubhouse in the left field corner. Jenkins hit his first bomb of the spring.
Hamels followed Chad Durbin and Brett Myers with impressive outings during the winning streak. Getting consistent starting pitching is so key. Jamie Moyer gets the nod tomorrow against the Rays in St. Pete.
We Have A Winner
Yes, the first post yesterday has the correct answer to Sunday's trivia question: Who has worn # 99 in Phillies history (New outfielder So Taguchi is wearing that number this year).
Mitch Williams in 1993 and Turk Wendell in 2001.
I'm sure Ted Kazanksi appreciates everyone remembering him. His career with the Phillies was 1953-58. At some point, I'll check out his uniform numbers.

I was wondering if there is any video available regarding the "Broadway rendition" performed at the game a few days ago. Sounded like something YouTube would like but I haven't seen anything yet.
