I don't buy into road games can't be won and that the ultra-first class travel or time zone change is hard on players, I still like Pete as our coach and love our team, but the toughest part of watching today was that it was a very winnable game if we just played solid defense, let our elite secondary cover their receivers and be smart on offense. It was just hard to watch us give this one away today, it didn't have to be like this.
The play calling seems like an easy suspect, but I have to factor in that it all boils down to how their defense counters on each play. Too many penalties, too many three and outs, too many missed coverages led to giving this thing away. It's hard to watch so much talent be so mediocre at times...I'm just disappointed that I have to live with this one for the week.
The good
Wilson is good and does extend plays, this kid will be some fun to watch develop
Tate and Rice are becoming solid receivers Nice catch by Tate! also nice to see Miller, Moore, McCoy contribute
Leon's return!
Wagner is having a great rookie year and proved it again today, he is becoming one of my favorite players
Turbin is getting better
No false starts on Okung, no crazy penalties on Breno
Our Defense looked good on the first few series
The Bad
What happened to our Legion of Boom? It was like Browner, Sherman, Trufant and gang were outplayed
Our front line could not open holes for Marshawn?
Baldwin? Why all the drops this year?
Lost a couple decent opportunities for field goals
The Ugly
The Sprinkler timer schedule - that was a first
Our secondary sure made Tannahill look great, what Happened?
Way too many drive killing Penalties! 2 penalties for 12 men?
I need to look at the penalty for Earl's personal foul, seems like he was penalized for simply landing on the QB I didn't like the call, but Leon's return negated it.
Losing yardage in FG distance in the last 2 minutes? (bad play calling, poor execution, poor decision to throw to Lynch)
No 10 second runoff? I'm confused why not
I wish I could get those 3 hours back to do something productive and get this loss off my mind. Oh well, Go Saints! Now let's see...turkey sandwich and some spiked eggnog or a rum and coke, maybe a zanax?, is I-502 in effect yet?

Read the original story here in the Portland Business Journal.
Portland State University plans to more than double the physical size of its School of Business Administration thanks largely to an $8 million anonymous gift from an alum.
The project will add 42,000 square feet of new construction and renovations to the school's existing 52,000 square feet.
The university's Graduate School of Education will also vacate space in the School of Business Administration's building, freeing up an additional 53,000 square feet.
The project means business students will no longer be scattered around campus. Roughly 50 percent of business classes meet in space outside of the School of Business Administration building.
The renovations will include the addition of numerous meeting rooms in order to increase collaboration between students and faculty. It will also transform a building that looks like the Chernobyl sarcophagus into an inviting and light-filled space.
"Portland is a vibrant region with world class companies and a high quality of life," said Scott Dawson, dean of the business school. "To achieve that, you've gotta have a great business school. Great business schools attract great students. Most of those students are going to stay here. Those are the people who are going to start companies."
The project will cost $60 million, including $40 million in state funding and $20 million in philanthropic gifts.
The state funding will likely be approved by this year's Legislature.
Portland State still needs to raise an additional $7.2 million in philanthropic gifts. It expects to finish fundraising in August.
The $8 million naming gift comes from an anonymous donor whose name could eventually grace the building.
The project is slated for groundbreaking in January 2015. Construction should be finished in the fall of 2016.
Read Friday's print edition of the Business Journal for details about the project.

February 5, 2004
For 15 members of the Wabash College football team, Tuesday afternoon proved to be a memorable moment in their lives.
As part of their commitment to give something back to the community, these 15 Wabash men visited 20 children who are currently being cared for at Riley Children's Hospital in Indianapolis. The players spent over two hours visiting with children who may only spend a few days in the hospital to those who have lived there now for several months going through treatments.
"It was sad when we first arrived," said Billy King, a freshman from Arizona who knew nothing about the hospital before he made the visit. "The looks on the kids' faces just before we walked into the room were so disheartening. But to see the smiles break out when we came in made me feel better than I've ever felt scoring a touchdown or making a big play."
The Little Giants spent the afternoon playing various games with the children. One young man, Cedrick, got a chance to go one-on-one with freshman running back Aaron Lafitte, the North Coast Athletic Conference Newcomer of the Year, in video football. Junior Nick Williams, who helped organize the trip, spent the afternoon talking to a young girl and her family, just listening to their stories. The players left after signing team photos and leaving any items that the children wanted to keep to remind them of the visit.
"One little girl even wanted to keep the pen that I used to sign the photo," said Williams.
For the children, it was a chance to meet some of the football players from a team that they read about in the paper each week. For the players it was much more.
"Sometimes I think I take for granted what I'm able to do," said King. "I get the chance to go to school, to play football, to do what I want when I want to. These kids don't have that chance. It was great to spend time with them and, hopefully, make their day a little brighter. I'm looking forward to the chance to go back and see them again."

Art Brokerage: Michael Flohr American Artist: b. 1975. With his parents encouragement, he began painting at the young age of five and later on pursued a degree at the San Francisco Academy of Art College, graduating in 1999. Michael Flohr has also been recognized into New York's Society of Illustrators, joining the ranks of legendary predecessors such as Norman Rockwell, Maxfield Parrish and N.C. Wyeth. Depicting ordinary moments in extraordinary ways, Michael Flohr's work displays an artistic mastery of color, perspective, technique and vision. Largely urban in content with a European flair, his paintings cover subject matter ranging from nightlife scenes, cityscapes, still lifes and figurative portraiture. Inspired by the works of master impressionists, Flohr prefers to paint in oils and comments " I love oil paint because of its durability and the richness it brings to the canvas. I also believe that most people with an appreciation for art respect an artists use of this classic medium." Listings wanted by Art Brokerage.

Tom Thibodeau enjoys media hype about as much as he likes leaving his office, so his answer about Tuesday's high-profile season opener in Miami sounded predictable.
"It's just the next game," Thibodeau said.
Asked about the championship banner and ring presentation ceremony that the Heat will enjoy before tipoff, Joakim Noah offered a flat response.
"I don't want to talk about that," Noah said.
What Noah gladly talked about, and Thibodeau did, too, was Noah's strong recovery from the groin injury that sidelined him for all but one exhibition game totaling 19 minutes, 45 seconds of action. Both Noah and Thibodeau said the All-Star center has been pain-free for "four or five days" and Noah placed his chances of playing Tuesday at "100 percent" after practicing fully Sunday.
Add in that Kirk Hinrich also took full contact on his injured shoulder and sounded confident he'd play against the Heat and suddenly the Bulls might have all hands on deck to resume this grudge match.
"Every time you play against Miami, it's always a statement," Noah said. "We're a hungry group. It's one of 82, but we know that every time you play against Miami it's important."
Noah's game, both offensively and defensively, is built on game conditioning. But he downplayed falling behind in that department by only playing against the Pistons during the preseason.
"I'll be fine," he said. "I'm not worried about it. I've been working on my conditioning the whole time. Even with the groin, it was more of a lateral problem, a jumping problem, more than just running straightforward. So I was doing a lot of running the whole time.
"I feel 100 percent. I have no problems in my groin. I wanted to play in that last preseason game, but Thibs said no. I was pissed about it, but I think it was the right decision."
Hinrich was cleared to resume physical activity Wednesday after passing league-mandated tests for the concussion he suffered Oct. 18 when he collided with teammate Erik Murphy. But a shoulder injury lingered, and that's why Sunday proved so important.
With Hinrich set to back up both Derrick Rose and Jimmy Butler at both guard positions, not to mention his long history battling Dwyane Wade, his availability would bolster the Bulls' chances in, ahem, the next game.
"I should be good to go," Hinrich said. "(Sunday) was kind of a pre-test for (the opener). It was a long, tough practice. I think I handled it pretty well."
Thibodeau did at least acknowledge the Heat as the "defending champion" and acknowledged that "everyone is chasing them." But he warned about succumbing to the hype. Try telling that to Noah.
"We know it goes through Miami," Noah said. "Those are the guys we want to beat. The East got better.
"It's going to be a long journey, but we have hope. That's a good feeling. It's exciting to really believe that we can do something special. If things go our way and we keep grinding the way we're grinding right now, we'll have a shot at the end of this."
Not to mention a shot at Tuesday's beginning.

I mentioned last week in a blog that I always like to promote businesses that do good in their communities on top of doing business. So when the folks at Hydrotech—a Cincinnati-based fluid power distributor that has participated in our Fluid Power Conference & Expo in the past—contacted me about its sister company, Got-Autism, I told them I'd share the good they're doing.
Got-Autism is a retail site that offers more than 2000 therapeutic, educational, and sensory solutions for the autism spectrum, ADHD, and other learning & behavioral differences. Products include autism toys, child locators, multi-sensory equipment, indoor swings, oral motor tools, social skills activities, fine motor fidgets, ABA tools, language-communication aids, autism awareness merchandise, autism books, CDs, DVDs, and more.
As some may know, April is National Autism Awareness Month, so Got-Autism is running a special 10% discount for buyers who use the code Hydrotech in the coupon box. Got-Autism also donates 5% of every purchase back to the autism community.
The company got its start by a Hydrotech employee, Tammy Andersson, whose son was diagnosed with autism. She turned to her colleagues at Hydrotech for help and the sister company was born. That's the kind of company everyone wants to work with. It's nice to know they have their employees backs.
I wish them luck and hope that readers with loved ones who have autism and other learning and behavioral differences find this site useful!

Chinese Web Giant to Reimburse for Search Scams
Aug 9, 2013 2:45 PM PT
Baidu, a Chinese Web company and operator of the country's top search engine, will reimburse users for scams carried out by websites that appear in its search results.
This is an extension of a scheme Baidu launched in May, when it promised to compensate consumers who were scammed -- but only up to about US$800, and only if the scamming site had paid for placement on Baidu.
Now, however, the $800 cap has been lifted, and organic search results will be included as well.
There are some asterisks: Users must have been logged in when they clicked on the devious link, and users must also have proof that a fraudulent transaction occurred.
Baidu reported that its reimbursement program yielded 3,628 complaints over the past three months, leading to the removal of more than 1,500 sites from its search index.

In Midst of Legal Battle, Encrypted Email Service Vanishes
Lavabit, an encrypted email service reportedly used by Edward Snowden during his leak-peddling expedition, has been shut down amid a legal battle.
Ladar Levison, owner of Texas-based Lavabit, posted a letter on the company's website Thursday saying he risked being "complicit in crimes against the American people" unless he shut down the site. The decision was reportedly six weeks in the making; the first Snowden leaks were published about eight weeks ago.
Four weeks ago, at a news conference in a Moscow airport, a rep from Human Rights Watch said she had been communicating with Snowden via Lavabit.
Levison didn't discuss many details, but did say that the whole ordeal taught him to "strongly recommend against anyone trusting their private data to a company with physical ties to the United States."
Also on Thursday, Jon Callas, cofounder of Silent Circle, announced via Twitter and in a blog post that Silent Circle had discontinued its own encrypted email service, Silent Mail. "We see the writing on the wall," he wrote.

Bill Gates Underwhelmed by Google's 'Loon' Program
Microsoft founder and serial philanthropist Bill Gates isn't so impressed with Google's "Project Loon," which sends balloons high into the air to beam Internet signals down to underprivileged parts of the world.
"When you're dying of malaria," Gates said, "I'm not sure how it'll help you" to see an Internet balloon in the sky.
The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is working to eradicate malaria, and judging by Gates' comments, he thinks that is a far more noble cause than connecting poor areas of the world.
Loon could be used for, among other things, communicating in the wake of a natural disaster, Google said.

BlackBerry Ponders Going Private
Beleaguered smartphone maker BlackBerry is thinking about going private in the hope of reversing what is now a years-long slide.
The company's board is increasingly receptive to the idea that it would be easier to revive the company if it were private, said CEO Thorsten Heins.
BlackBerry's shares have fallen nearly 20 percent this year, while the company's slice of the global smartphone operating system market has dipped to about 3 percent, according to IDC.
In the next eight months, BlackBerry will reportedly be launching more devices that run on the BlackBerry 10 operating system.

Cleveland Browns sign OL Rashad Butler to 1-year contract, spent 6 seasons with Houston
CLEVELAND – The Cleveland Browns have signed free agent offensive lineman Rashad Butler to a one-year contract.
Butler spent the past six seasons with the Houston Texans. He was on injured reserve all of 2012 with a triceps injury, and he played in just two games in 2011 because of an elbow injury.
The 6-foot-4, 310-pounder has made 41 career starts in the NFL. In 2010, he played in all 16 games and made four starts at left tackle for the Texans.
A four-year letterman at Miami, Butler was drafted in the third round (No. 89 overall) by Carolina in 2006. The 30-year-old was waived by the Panthers in 2007 before he was claimed by Houston.
Butler should bring some depth to Cleveland's line.

Walk into a newer Taco Bell restaurant these days, and the expanse of "choice" real estate on the menu boards can be a daunting experience — a bit like reading "War and Peace," but with more tacos and less Tolstoy.
I snapped the above photograph of the many menu options while waiting for delivery of my first sample of the Cantina Bell Chicken Bowl ($4.79 at my Dallas location), the new Taco Bell creation in partnership with chef Lorena Garcia.
My colleague Mark Brandau has been chronicling how Taco Bell has renovated and added to the menu, and it will be fascinating to watch how they will change these voluminous offerings in the future.
Because I was single-minded in my choice of the Cantina Bell bowl, I was a quick on the order. However, I noticed those behind me were having a much slower time reading through all these menu options.
But that's how I tried to read "War and Peace," so I understand.

WEST ADDISON — By definition a survivor is one who endures adverse or unusual circumstances. That is a description that Helen Kahrs, 78, of West Addison, fits perfectly.
First diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2005, and then hit by a second cancer diagnosis five years later, today Kahrs can happily say that she is a true survivor after years of battling cancer.
MIDDLEBURY — A local advisory board has been collecting facts and figures about the sluggish regional economy in an effort to convince the Middlebury business community about the importance of contributing toward a new business development director charged with bringing new jobs to town.

ADDISON COUNTY — The local high school sports season kicks off — literally — with two football games on Friday night. One of the first two teams in action this fall was the last team in action in the fall of 2011.
That would be the Middlebury Union football team, a perennial title contender that reached the Division I championship game a year ago in its return to D-I after two successful seasons in D-II.
Desperate times breed innovative ideas. That's what happened on the job front in the Los Angeles area when two things happened a few years back: after 40-50 years of traffic gridlock, Los Angeles County residents finally voted to pay for the rail lines through the county. The initiative, called Measure R, required support from two-thirds of the voters. It passed with flying colors.

PANTON — Many, but not necessarily all, Panton homeowners should see lower tax bills when they open the envelopes this week, according to town treasurer M'Lissa Dayton.
Because Panton has just completed a town-wide reappraisal and individual assessments have changed, Dayton said maybe not all taxpayers will see bills asking for lower payments, half of which are due on Nov. 1 and May 1, respectively.
"They (the results) will vary, and you will be getting them shortly," she said.
MIDDLEBURY — The annual Shoreham Festival will be a little leaner this year but still a blast when it is staged in the village all day this Saturday, Sept. 1.
A recent water main project on the town commons and other factors have forced organizers to pare a few past features of the event, such as the garden tractor pull, tag sale and carnival rides. But this year's Shoreham Festival will still include such mainstays as a chicken barbecue, parade and street dance.
STARKSBORO — What began as a part of his daily routine turned out to be a life-altering experience for Regan Wedge Sr.
Wedge, now 55, was diagnosed withcancer in 2007 and will be cancer-free for five years in September. After experiencing all the emotions of a life-threatening situation, he now reflects on what he has learned through the process.

Mouth & Dental Injuries
Mouth injuries are common, especially in children, and may involve the teeth, jaw, lips, tongue, inner cheeks, gums, roof of the mouth (hard or soft palates), neck, or tonsils . Sometimes mouth injuries look worse than they are. Even a small cut or puncture inside the mouth may bleed a lot because there are many blood vessels in the head and neck area. Home treatment of minor mouth injuries can help stop bleeding, reduce pain, help healing, and prevent infection.
Teeth may be injured during a fall or a sport activity. A tooth may be knocked out (avulsed). You may be able to replace a permanent tooth in its socket (reimplant) if it has been knocked out or torn away from the socket. Immediate first aid and dental care are needed when a permanent tooth has been knocked out.
An injury could crack, chip, or break a tooth, or make a tooth change color . A tooth also may be loose or moved in position (dental luxation) or jammed into the gum (intruded).
Other dental injuries may be caused by grinding your teeth, especially at night. Your teeth may hurt, chip, or become loose. Biting surfaces may become flat and worn down. A broken or loose dental appliance or an orthodontic wire or bracket may poke or rub the inside of your mouth and make your mouth sore.
Mouth or Lip Injuries
An injury to your mouth or lips may cause a large, loose flap of tissue or a gaping wound that may need stitches. A smaller wound on the lip may be stitched for cosmetic reasons. If an object, such as a piece of broken tooth or an orthodontic wire, gets stuck in a wound, you may need to have it removed by a doctor. You can also have problems from a piercing in the mouth.
The piece of skin between your lips and gums or under your tongue ( frenulum ) may tear or rip. Usually this type of injury will heal without stitches. It is generally not a concern unless the tear was caused by physical or sexual abuse .
An injury to the roof of your mouth, the back of your throat, or a tonsil can injure deeper tissues in your head or neck. These injuries can happen when a child falls with a pointed object, such as a pencil or Popsicle stick, in his or her mouth.
Check your symptoms to decide if and when you should see a doctor.

Heber Springs' amazing postseason run unraveled in the top of the fifth inning Friday when Shiloh Christian scored 12 runs on seven hits, three walks, two hit batsmen and two errors while pulling away for a 15-2 victory in the quarterfinals of the Class 4A state tournament.
Heber Springs' amazing postseason run unraveled in the top of the fifth inning Friday when Shiloh Christian scored 12 runs on seven hits, three walks, two hit batsmen and two errors while pulling away for a 15-2 victory in the quarterfinals of the Class 4A state tournament.
After playing their best ball of the season while beating Jonesboro Westside and Lonoke to earn a bye in state, the Panthers (11-17) closed their season with a pair of run-rule losses, including Friday's game and last Monday's regional championship against Stuttgart.
Playing as the North's No. 2 seed, the three-time defending state champion Saints upended Prairie Grove 7-2 on Saturday to reach the state finals against Lonoke, which edged Pulaski Academy 8-7 in 12 innings to reach the title game.
"They are a good team. I told the kids all week long as long as we don't make errors and don't walk people we will be able to play with them," said Panthers Coach Darren Gowen. "There in the second inning they scored three runs that were unearned and then I felt sorry for Mike [Ludwig]. He just ran out of gas. We rode him as long as we could. Those first four innings we fought with them and we hit with them."
Gowen is proud of his team's attitude and work ethic despite an up and down season. "I am proud of these kids, especially these seniors. Especially Mike and Geoffrey [Anderson]. Geoffrey has started for three years and Mike for four years but this was kinda a tough year having to replace a lot of starters but they kept being great leaders, stayed focused and got us playing good and in the state tournament. We were one of the last eight teams playing so it was a great year."
After Shiloh took advantage of two errors on potential double play balls while scoring three runs in the top of the second, Heber responded with one run on three hits in the bottom half, starting with a leadoff single by Judson Smith.
Brooks Morgan then dropped a sacrifice-bunt turned error as Saints' pitcher Jacob May had trouble picking the ball up and the speedy Morgan beat his throw to first base. Following a well-executed sacrifice-bunt by Harley Hooten, May retired Derrik Fisher on a high pop-up to shallow right field, where Drew Tyler made the play from his second base position.
With two out and two runners in scoring position, Nathan Martz ripped an RBI single to left field that scored Smith but Josh Stephens cut down Morgan with a strong throw to the plate as Shiloh took a 3-1 lead to the third inning.
Ludwig, who led the Panthers to a pair of wins over Shiloh in football this season, including a playoff game, retired the Saints in order in the top of the third. In the bottom half, Heber scored one run on two hits as Tyler Dennis beat out a bunt single to ignite the Panthers.
Anderson pushed Dennis into scoring position with a sacrifice-bunt, then Michael Kramer drilled a ground-rule, RBI double that bounced over the left field wall and scored Dennis. After issuing a walk to Ludwig, May left runners stranded at first and second with the help of a 4-6-3 double play turned by Tyler and shortstop David Petrino.
Ludwig sat down the Saints in order in the fourth, including two by strikeout but the Panthers also went down quietly in the bottom half.
Clinging to a 3-2 lead, Shiloh suddenly put the game away with 12 runs in the fifth, starting with a drag bunt single by Ben Olsen. Jared Chenier followed with a single to left field then Tyler nailed a 2 RBI triple to the alley in right center, scoring Olsen and Chenier for a three-run cushion.
The Panthers elected to intentionally walk Petrino and the wheels began to come off as Ludwig plunked the next two batters and walked two more as the Saints built an 8-2 lead, causing Heber to relieve Ludwig with Anderson.
The Saints took advantage of two fielding errors for an 11-2 lead before Chenier lined an RBI triple to right center, scoring Olsen. Tyler added a one-out, RBI single and Tyler Harris and Joseph Paulino each recorded two-out, RBI singles as the Saints' lead grew to 15-2 before Anderson got out of the fifth.
With Heber needing four runs to keep the game alive, May retired the Panthers in order in the bottom of the fifth, including two by strikeout as the Saints marched on to the state semifinals.

Naples and Marco Island Venues for Large Groups
While there isn't a central convention center in the area, there are plenty of places that can accommodate big groups on the Paradise Coast. Why have your group meet between four walls when they can enjoy tropical gardens, beachfront settings, art galleries, wildlife preserves and more? Here's a look at where big groups can stay, meet and play.
Big properties
Start thinking big at the Marco Island Marriott Beach Resort, Golf Club & Spa, which sits on Southwest Florida's biggest private beach. With 225,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor function space, their extensive facilities can easily accommodate up to 2,000 guests in a setting with breathtaking tropical charm. The resort has completed a $220 million transformation that makes this amazing property exquisite in every last detail.
Another great option for larger groups is Naples Beach Hotel & Golf Club. The elaborate 72,000-square-foot clubhouse and spa stands as the centerpiece of 34,000 square feet of impressive function space. The Naples Beach Hotel & Golf Club also boasts a 18-hole, par-72 championship course right on site.
Another delightful option for bigger meetings is the award-winning Ritz-Carlton, Naples, featuring 42,000 square feet of meeting space and one of the biggest, most comprehensive, on-site destination management companies in the country. Trained, certified employees are ready to assist on everything from themed events to all-inclusive billing. This property also provides the seaside tropical charm the Paradise Coast is famous for, and shines even brighter with their $6 million transformation, including a sushi bar, tiki bar and more.
The popular Naples Grande Beach Resort is a great choice for bigger meetings. This dynamic resort is right on the Gulf and offers a contemporary-style setting, with more than 80,000 square feet of customizable indoor and outdoor function space. Elegant and chic, the Naples Grande is also home to the Naples Grande Spa.
To save big at these fine properties and others on the Paradise Coast, visit www.ParadiseCoast.com/Meetings for the latest meeting specials.
Big off-site venues
The Philharmonic Center for the Arts is an exciting way to mix world-class arts with your next meeting. Their grand main auditorium can seat 1,425 guests, and their glass dome Figge Conservatory seats 165.
If you want something totally original and unforgettable for your big group, the NGALA Private Reserve can accommodate 1,000 guests. They can relax under the stars while enjoying hors d'oeuvres and spectacular cuisine, and view magnificent un-caged creatures such as giraffes and leopards closer than ever dreamed possible.
One of Naples' most popular large-scale venues is the Naples Botanical Garden, offering a lush, tropical setting and both inside and outside seating. Their tent lawn can accommodate up to 1,000 people.

The Botany of Desire
Random House, 2001 - 271 Seiten
In 1637, one Dutchman paid as much for a single tulip bulb as the going price of a town house in Amsterdam. Three and a half centuries later, Amsterdam is once again the mecca for people who care passionately about one particular plant — thought this time the obsessions revolves around the intoxicating effects of marijuana rather than the visual beauty of the tulip. How could flowers, of all things, become such objects of desire that they can drive men to financial ruin?
In The Botany of Desire, Michael Pollan argues that the answer lies at the heart of the intimately reciprocal relationship between people and plants. In telling the stories of four familiar plant species that are deeply woven into the fabric of our lives, Pollan illustrates how they evolved to satisfy humankinds's most basic yearnings — and by doing so made themselves indispensable. For, just as we've benefited from these plants, the plants, in the grand co-evolutionary scheme that Pollan evokes so brilliantly, have done well by us. The sweetness of apples, for example, induced the early Americans to spread the species, giving the tree a whole new continent in which to blossom. So who is really domesticating whom?
Weaving fascinating anecdotes and accessible science into gorgeous prose, Pollan takes us on an absorbing journey that will change the way we think about our place in nature.

text: Something historic happened last week. Something with such mixed blessings it's difficult to really even interpret it's possible long term ramifications yet. But I'll certainly try. Those of us who really love our Darjeeling teas may already be aware, but most people won't be. Darjeeling is now ruled by the Gorkha.

I took my two youngest daughters to the Twins game this afternoon. The Twins are playing in a zone right now that makes them great fun to watch. Their starting pitcher today was Johan Santana, who I do not believe made the team out of spring training. Santana gave up two hits in eight innings while striking out 14 Blue Jays (I think). Guardado pitched the ninth and gave up a hit but recorded another strikeout. Twins win 4-0, the last run being on a homerun rocket by Torii Hunter, the most exciting player on the team this year. As a practical matter the Twins clinched their division about two weeks ago and seem to be playing for the right to have the home edge in the playoffs.
During the seventh inning stretch they played "I'm Proud to be an American" (is it by Lee Greenwood?); more fans sang along with it than sang along with "Take Me Out to the Ballgame."

Last week I found a suspicious mole on my side, which I knew was malignant. What else could it be? Everything's going swimmingly; therefore, I am dying. That's logic. Or is it irony?
Scott and I were watching television when I found it. I don't know why I was feeling myself up. Clearly the television wasn't entertainment enough. I had developed this scabby, crusty thing on my side a few months ago, and then I forgot about it--if only she had taken care of it when it was first discovered, she might have had a chance--and there I was on the couch and I revisited the mole and it was significantly larger and crustier. "Holy crap, I'm dying," I told Scott. "Look."
He looked. "I'm sure you're not dying," he said.
"How do you know I'm not dying? Do you have a medical degree? Can you positively tell me this isn't cancer? Don't lie to a dying woman."
"If you're so worried," he suggested, "go see a dermatologist."
I knew he would say that. We've been married ten years, and he's become so predictable, with his calmness and his rationality. It's unbearable. But it was 9 p.m., and I needed answers. I needed answers right then and there.
"The Internet!" I cried. "The Internet will provide reassurance!"
"Alice, do not," Scott commanded. "No. Don't. No google. This will not end well."
I opened my laptop.
"Stop it. Close the laptop. This is just going to scare you. Stop."
"You don't understand. This time the Internet will provide useful information. I am sure of it."
"No. The Internet will only give you lies and panic. Stop."
But I googled, people. I googled the shit out of this mole. Scott feebly protested but I kept it up—I googled "crusty mole" and "mole that peels" and "mole that's suddenly larger and also I just moved and I'm almost 40 and never had a skin check and my name is Alice Bradley please tell me I'm not dying." I googled and I googled and I googled some more.
And the Internet told me that I was almost certainly nearing death. It was too late for me. I was not long for this world.
"I guarantee you're fine," Scott kept saying.
How does he know? the Internet asked. He's just trying to shut you up so he can go back to watching his show. Which, by the way, is nearing cancellation. I can tell you all about that, if you just google. Stick with me, you poor dying creature. I know everything.
"You must marry again," I wept all over Scott's shoulder. "Promise me."
"Oh my god, you are so insane," he answered.
He's going to regret saying that when he knows the truth. The truth that I have shared with you. There is no space/time on the Internet. I know all and see all.
I went to sleep that night knowing that I might not wake up the next day, but then I did, which was nice. I made an appointment with a dermatologist because I'm crazy but not that crazy. The bottom line is that I am whiter than anyone, and I should have started having my skin checked years ago. And now she would go for her skin check, only to discover that it was Too Late.
Only it wasn't too late. The dermatologist looked at the mole and declared that it was nothing, or rather that it was something but an insignificant something, some kind of keratosis something-or-other.
"I hate to tell you how to do your job," I told him, "but if you'll just google this, I think you'll see that it's quite serious indeed."
Then he started bragging about his experience and his medical degrees, I don't know, I wasn't listening. It was sinking in: I wasn't going to die after all? What? Scott didn't have to marry again?
"So you're telling me I don't have cancer?" I said, and he said that's right, you're fine, but come in every six months because you're crazy-pale and your family history is etc. and also SPF whatever everyday and broad-brimmed hats blar de blar.
And when I ran outside to call Scott to tell him he didn't need to look for a potential wife I was mowed down by an out-of-control delivery truck carrying a shipment of high-SPF sunscreen.
Well, no, I wasn't. But if I had, that would have been irony.
