Cor! This is a bit good.
That there is the premiere of dance-drone post-futurists Factory Floor's new single. It's available as a 12" via the legendary DFA Records on 14th November 2011. It's a song called 'Two Different Ways'. It sounds something like mutant-robots dancing as Fred Dibner blows up a German design museum to make way for a laboratory. And it is awesome, immense and othe-such words to that effect, isn't it?
Additionally, you can have your ears blasted by catching Factory Floor (they are one of the best live bands in the world right now - so says us!) when they headline the launch of the New Fred Perry Sub-Sonic Live night. It takes place on Friday 18th November at the Garage in London. Entry is free, but you need to click this link and reserve yourself a ticket

Investigator testifies at Naval Academy trial
An investigator testified Tuesday that the woman at the center of a Naval Academy sexual assault case said in an interview that she couldn't remember whether sexual encounters with the men charged in the case were consensual or not.
Special Agent Michelle Robinson spoke from Bahrain by video teleconference in the Article 32 hearing at the Washington Navy Yard to help determine whether three U.S. Naval Academy midshipmen will face a court-martial. The former football players are accused of sexually assaulting or abusing the woman at an off-campus party in 2012.
Robinson testified that the woman at the center of the case told her in an interview that she was unsure whether she consented to sexual encounters with the men.
The woman has said she drank heavily and has no memory of having sex with the midshipmen, but became concerned after hearing gossip shortly after the party that she had had sex with multiple people. The Associated Press generally doesn't name those who authorities say were victims of sexual assault.
Robinson also testified that Midshipman Eric Graham told her he had oral sex in a car outside the party with the woman. Graham made the statement in an interview during the investigation.
Graham has been charged with abusive sexual contact, while Midshipmen Tre'vas Bush and Josh Tate have been charged with aggravated sexual assault. All three also are charged with making a false statement.
The hearing could be wrapped up Tuesday, a week after it began. After the hearing, the presiding investigative officer will review evidence and make a recommendation to the academy's superintendent. Such reviews generally take days or weeks to complete.
Special Agent Lisa Werner testified that investigators tried to gather more evidence relating to accusations against Tate by recording a conversation between him and the woman in person.
Werner testified phone taps were no longer effective because students believed their phone calls were being recorded. The attempt to record Tate in person failed, however, because Tate was late for a meeting with the woman and a memory card on the recording device had run out.
Tate had told the woman that he had only been joking when he said shortly after the party that the two had had sex.
Tate's attorney, Jason Ehrenburg, asked whether investigators needed to get more evidence on Tate.
"We were trying to get something on Tate, yes," Werner said.
Tate, Graham and Bush declined to speak in court Tuesday when asked by the investigative officer.
Defense attorneys are scheduled to comment on the evidence Tuesday night before the hearing closes.
The case has drawn attention as the White House, Congress and the Pentagon have been focusing on the issue of sexual assault after a string of cases in the military this year. President Barack Obama highlighted the importance of the issue at the Naval Academy's graduation ceremony in May.

Taking on Custom Ant Logging
This article is the third and final article in my series on Ant customizations. My first article, Introduction to Custom Ant Tasks, explained the basic mechanics of writing a simple custom task in Java, packaging the Java class file and a Java properties file into a JAR file, and using this in your own Ant script. My second article, More on Custom Ant Tasks, discussed the details of custom "types" as well as the mechanics and issues associated with nesting custom elements and standard Ant elements together.
In this article, I will show you how to take control of Ant's default logging mechanism and write your own log message handlers. Specifically, I will discuss:
- Ant's Built-in Logging Facilities
- Loggers versus Listeners
- A Custom Syslog Listener
- A Custom XML Logger
- Warnings on Sub-builds and Loggers
Of course, I will also try to add some insight about how Ant works with these concepts based on my own "lessons learned" and my own forays into the Ant API documentation.
I am assuming you have a moderate level of experience with Ant on your platform-of-choice. (I use Windows 2000 during the day and Mac OS X when I'm at home.) Also, my code examples use some of the newer Java syntax bits such as enhanced-for and generics.
Ant's Built-in Logging Facilities
Most people use Ant content with the output that results from the default logger... that is, log messages are plain text and look similar to the following:
Buildfile: build.xml demo: Hello, World! BUILD SUCCESSFUL Total time: 0 seconds
Note: For this, I am using the Ant script from my first "hello world" custom task example. Refer to my first article in this series.
Following a banner which includes the Ant script file being executed, target names are shown on their own line with a colon following them, and output from specific tasks are shown on their own lines. This is usually enough for simple projects, but the output from different tasks is left more to the whims of the task writer, so there is not a lot of structural consistency. Also you might wonder whether that "Hello, World!" message is the result of a simple echo tag, or something else? (Where does one tag stop and the next tag start?)
Ant does, however, provide a few built-in logging options, and you can control exactly which logging option you want to use on the command line via the "-logger" command line option. When you use this command line option, follow it with the fully resolved name of some Java class that you want to use to handle the logging output. The built-in options include org.apache.tools.ant.DefaultLogger, which we have just seen, and org.apache.tools.ant.XmlLogger which looks like the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="log.xsl"?> <build time="0 seconds"> <task location="/Article1/ex1_files/build.xml:3: " name="taskdef" time="0 seconds"></task> <target name="demo" time="0 seconds"> <task location="/Article1/ex1_files/build.xml:6: " name="helloworld" time="0 seconds"> <message priority="info"><![CDATA[Hello, World!]]></message> </task> </target> </build>
Larger build projects can definitely benefit from some form of an XML-based log output, especially if any downstream processing is needed. However, my personal opinion about Ant's built-in XML logger is that it really isn't quite as useful as I would like: when something goes wrong, the Ant-level error messages are placed in elements that are siblings to, not children of, the task elements that caused them, and the only way to relate which error belongs to which task is to read into a CDATA section. This alone makes automated log file analysis more cumbersome that it needs to be. You also only get one stacktrace element for the entire build, even if you are running Ant in "keep going" mode and several problems result. (Specifically, you get a stacktrace element for the first problem.)
This isn't to say you can't get what you want, just that the default XML-based logger currently included with Ant might not suit your needs. Fortunately, taking control of the logging facility to generate log messages in a format you require is rather easy. In fact, the need to perform hands-off, post-build analysis and decision making in a nightly build system eventually led me to my first experience with custom XML-based logging.
Loggers versus Listeners
In addition to a logger, Ant also has a log message handling category known as a listener. A logger basically is a listener. The first key difference is that a logger is given the ability to write to the log output device, which is either the console or some file specified with the "-logfile" command line argument. The second key difference results from the first: your Ant script can have multiple listeners but only one logger. The logger is that which Ant connects to the System.out and System.err streams. In fact, the logger neither knows nor cares about the exact nature or destination of these streams. Given this, I shall reiterate the Ant manual's warning to not directly write to these streams -- your logger might cause an infinite loop.
Developer's Diversion: Ant's Project class has a method called getBuildListeners which returns a Vector. The logger in use seems to be the first element in this vector, and additional listeners, if any, comprise the remainder of the vector. However, I am not one of the Ant developer's, so this is not an authoritative statement.
In addition to the two built-in loggers mentioned above, you can use the "-listener" command line argument to connect your Ant script to these built-in listener classes: org.apache.tools.ant.listener.CommonsLoggingListener, and org.apache.tools.ant.listener.Log4Listener. These listeners connect to the Apache "commons logging" facility and the Log4j logging facility, respectively. I will not be discussing how to configure those logging facilities as they are separate projects, each likely meriting its own article series. I mainly mention the existence of these built-in listeners more for completeness, since the standard Ant manual doesn't cover them too obviously outside of the API documentation itself. Also apparently not clear to a few people I've encountered on forums: if you want multiple listeners, add each with their own "-listener" argument.
A Custom Syslog Listener
Ant Listener Overview
Implementing a custom listener is a matter of creating a Java class that implements the following methods from the org.apache.tools.ant.BuildListener interface:
buildStarted(BuildEvent e) buildFinished(BuildEvent e) targetStarted(BuildEvent e) targetFinished(BuildEvent e) taskStarted(BuildEvent e) taskFinished(BuildEvent e) messageLogged(BuildEvent e)
Of course, your implementation for some of these methods can simply "do nothing" if you are only concerned with capturing certain log information. Regardless, with an implementation class available somewhere in the classpath, just run your Ant script and use the "-listener" argument to specify a listener which should receive logging messages.
Note: A custom listener is being discussed. A custom logger will be discussed later. Your listener will function in addition to whichever logger is being used.
The BuildEvent argument to all of the interface methods is another Ant class. This class allows you to get a reference to the Project, Target, and Task the script is running in, the actual message text itself, the Ant-level priority of the message (verbose, warning, etc.) as emitted by the task code, and a Throwable object. By convention, this Throwable will be null under normal circumstances. When it is non-null, this is generally due to a BuildException having been emitted by task code. You definitely want to watch for a non-null Throwable and send information about it somewhere as an error-level message, but you should really only expect to receive non-null throwables on the xxxFinished interface methods.
To provide some value to the discussion, assume we want to implement a custom listener that sends messages to a remote "syslog" server via UDP packets.

You might want to limit the billable usage by setting caps. For example, to prevent getting billed for usage beyond the free courtesy usage limits, you can set requests per day caps.
Modify the number of requests
You can set limits to all requests to any billable API. Most APIs set default limits, but you can change that limit up to a maximum specified by Google. Some APIs set a very low limit until you enable billing on your project.
To view or change the limits for your API, do the following:
- Go to the Cloud Console APIs & Services Dashboard page.
- From the projects list, select a project or create a new one.
- Click the name of the API you're interested in.
- Click Quotas.
- On the quota line you want to change, click the edit icon ( ), then enter your preferred total quota, up to the limit specified by Google.
Some APIs allow you to request a higher limit by submitting a form. Some APIs allow access to higher quotas only if billing is enabled on the project.
Limiting requests per second per user
To prevent individual users from using up your API quota, limit the number of requests per second per user for an API. Each API includes a default per-user limit, but you can modify that value as described in the previous section.
Individual users are identified by a unique string; if you're creating a
server-side application (where the calling code is hosted on a server that you
own) that makes requests on behalf of users, your requests must include the
quotaUser parameter, as described below.
To identify a user, use the
quotaUser=userID parameter. This value is for
short term quota enforcement only, so you don't need to use a real user ID.
You can choose any arbitrary string under forty characters long that uniquely
identifies a user.
quotaUser parameter is only used for capping requests per user per
second. If you don't send the
quotaUser parameter, then all calls are
attributed to your server machines, in which case calls can't be capped by user.
View and edit all quotas for APIs in a project
You can review, edit, and request higher quota limits for all billable APIs in a given project by viewing the Quotas page found in IAM & admin.
To view and edit quotas for all billable APIs in your project, do the following:
- Go to the Cloud Console Quotas page in IAM & admin.
- From the projects list, select a project or create a new one.
The Quotas page for the selected project is displayed, listing one line item for each type of quota available in each service.
- Use the filters at the top of the page to adjust the list by Quota type, Service, Metric, and/or Location.
- To edit multiple quotas, click +EDIT QUOTAS and click the checkbox next to each quota to select one or more quotas to edit. Billing must be enabled on the project in order to click the checkboxes.
- In the Edit Quotas panel on the right, complete the form with your Name, Email address, and Phone number, then click Next.
- In the Edit Quotas panel, select the service to expand the view, then edit the quotas in that service and click Done.
- Repeat to edit the quotas in each of the selected services.
- A service with an alert icon ( ) has not yet been edited.
- You can add more quotas to edit by selecting them from the list on the left.
- You can remove a service from the Edit Quotas panel by clicking the delete icon ( ).
- When you are done editing quotas, click Submit request.

FX Action: USD-CAD has…
FX Action: USD-CAD has remained heavy, near the 16-day low that was seen yesterday at 1.2984. Oil prices have today seen modest declines after recent gains, which culminated in a nine-month high yesterday. The oil market will remain the dominant drive of USD-CAD. Analysts remain bullish on the Canadian dollar. The OPEC+ group will decide on extending prevailing quota restrictions next Tuesday (December 1). A three month extension from January has been priced in, while the group is also considering a six-month extension, which by its own analysis would likely swing the oil market back into supply deficit. While global stockpiles are high, demand for oil is set to be well below normal through the northern hemisphere winter due to Covid countermeasures, which are already tight in Europe and becoming more restrictive across North America and in the more northerly Asian countries. There is also a view that after the Covid pandemic has gone, oil will have a more elastic characteristic, with many developed nations likely to see a higher prevalence of working from home than before, reducing demand for fuel and enabling consumers of gasoline to reduce commuting days during times of oil high prices. These are motivating reasons for oil producing nations to keep supply restrained. Assuming quota discipline is maintained, the outlook is bullish for oil on the back of the increased optimism for a vaccine-assisted route out of the prevailing Covid situation. USD-CAD has been trending lower since March, and analysts anticipate there is more to come. The current trend low is at 1.2928, which was seen earlier in November, and which was the lowest level the pair has seen since October 2018.

As Tina Fey has said, "Bitches be crazy." Sometimes we let our emotions get the best of us, and it can have lasting consequences. Don't let a little snark or a satisfying, subtle dig in the moment have lasting effects on your relationships or career. Here are five times it can pay to bite your tongue.
When it involves family
There is no escaping your blood relatives, or those you acquire by marriage or other means for that matter. Some people can have blowout fights with their sister and then go for manis the next day, no big deal. (The Kardashians come to mind.) But you know, if your Mom can't handle what you're about to say, keep it inside or vent to a friend. There are times truths need to be aired — an intervention or situation where someone's safety is at stake. If it's just that you don't feel like having Christmas dinner at your Aunt's house, maybe you should take a step back. Speaking of which, the family clause comes with its own situational addendum — when a group holiday or vacation is coming up, you might want to tread especially carefully.
If it could affect your finances
If keeping discourse civil could mean the bank might waive a fee or the insurance company might look more favorably on your claim, do try to rise above your anger. Anything involving a customer service representative can be stressful and emotionally charged. Say you're trying to get medical coverage for a dependent's upcoming surgery that is a gray area in your policy, you're going to want to be polite even if the policy is unfair, they have all your information wrong, and they're acting like your situation is no big deal. When you want something from someone, even something you are entitled to, you're not in the best position to air your grievances.
This can also go along with the family rule. If your parents are helping out with your rent, it might not be the time to show off your fresh ink to your Orthodox Jewish mother.
At work
If you might want to work at this company in the future, or even in the same industry, just do not tell off your boss and quit in a huff. There are times to quit in a huff. And if you have solid evidence of sexual harassment or another situation that would easily explain to future employers why you have no reference from this job, then maybe you have an exception on your hands. If not, hold back. Pulling a diva act when you land a better gig is always a bad idea. You never know when you may need these professional contacts in the future. For instance, there were times back in the day when Victoria Beckham had her issues with The Spice Girls, but they were all able to amiably, and I'm sure lucratively, reunite for the closing ceremonies of the Olympics.
You are at the mercy of an authority figure
Rarely will it work out well for you if you blow up at a cop who is accusing you of an offense, even one you did not commit. No matter the injustice, authority figures have just that — authority. When someone else has the upper hand, try your hardest not to offend them. If a TSA agent breaks your favorite bottle of Bond No. 9 and you go all Naomi Campbell on him, you are not going to make your flight. These are the times when it pays to be on your best behavior in the moment and to take detailed and copious notes about all the injustices you suffer. Going calmly through the proper channels once you've calmed down could get that parking ticket reversed.
When you're going through a rough patch
If you've been overworked, you're in ill health, or are emotionally strained, you are probably not at your most rational. There are times in our lives when nothing is going right, and very big things are going wrong. These are times when you deserve a break. And odds are if you have good people in your life, they've been giving it to you, as well as their support and patience. Don't take advantage of that, or use your circumstances as an excuse to mistreat other people. If people or institutions are helping you when you are vulnerable, but they slip up or have an off day when you just can't take it anymore — take it a little more. Show them the same kindness they have shown you. You are going to need your support network right now. You won't be able to call your best friend to give you a ride home from the doctor if you just insulted her and her entire family for a perceived slight.
All in all, I'm going to borrow a phrase from the British and say we should all just "keep calm and carry on" whenever possible. Severing ties and cutting off relationships is a messy business, it's best to avoid the drama whenever possible.

Risk Factors | Screening and Diagnosis | Personalized Treatment | Additional Patient Support
Uterine cancer is the most common of the gynecologic cancers. Endometrial cancer, or cancer of the uterine lining, is the most common type of uterine cancer, while uterine sarcoma, or cancer arising from the muscle of the uterus, is more rare. The lifetime incidence of endometrial cancer in the U.S. is 1 to 2 percent, and typically occurs in women after menopause.
The experienced, collaborative team of specialists at NorthShore Kellogg Cancer Center combines the most advanced scientific knowledge and technology with a comprehensive and compassionate approach to care, creating a program of personalized medicine and patient-centered care for each individual diagnosed with uterine cancer.
Drawing from the diverse experience of physicians, surgeons, nurses, researchers and a host of other highly trained healthcare professionals, the Kellogg Cancer Center team works collaboratively and is dedicated to putting patients—and families—at the center of a healthcare experience that delivers compassionate, quality care.
Uterine (Endometrial) Cancer Risk Factors
While there is no known cause of uterine cancer, there are some identified factors that increase a woman's risk of developing a uterine cancer, including women with increased levels of natural estrogen. Other factors could include:
Women who fall into these risk categories should be closely monitored by their physician. Symptoms can include abnormal uterine bleeding, pain during sexual intercourse, difficult or painful urination, or pelvic pain. If you experience any of these symptoms be sure to talk to your physician.
Uterine Cancer Screening and Diagnosis
There is no standard method for screening for uterine cancer. However, all women should have an annual gynecologic examination, including a careful pelvic examination. Symptoms of post menopausal bleeding or bleeding between periods can be due to an endometrial cancer and should be reported immediately to your gynecologist, who will take steps to evaluate the lining of the uterus.
Should your physician suspect uterine cancer, your doctor may perform an endometrial biopsy of the lining of the uterus in their office, or a dilation and curettage (D&C) procedure. A D&C is a surgical procedure in which a small instrument called a curette is inserted through the vagina into the uterus in order to scrape the endometrium (lining of the uterus).
If a diagnosis of uterine cancer is made, your physician then determines the severity or stage of the cancer, including whether it has spread within the uterus or to other areas of the body.
Personalized Uterine Cancer Treatment
With uterine cancer, your physician may recommend one of several courses of treatment. The mainstay of uterine cancer treatment is surgical removal of the uterus and cervix, fallopian tubes and ovaries, and pelvic and regional lymph node sampling. Surgery can be done through a traditional incision or through minimally invasive surgery, which involves small keyhole incisions and an advanced technology approach performed . When the cancer is still in its earliest stages, a hysterectomy, the removal of the uterus, may be all that is required. In other cases, radiation therapy and chemotherapy may also be recommended. In some cases, hormone therapy may be a course of uterine cancer treatment.
Every week, our multidisciplinary team meets in a multidisciplinary conference to discuss each patient's case in detail and to design a personalized treatment plan. For uterine cancer, your team may include your gynecologic oncologist, radiation oncologist, geneticist, pathologist, nutritionist, pharmacist, radiologist, social worker and researchers, all focused on you. This "meeting of the minds" provides critical input, resulting in an individualized care plan outlining the best course of action for each patient.
Patients are at the center of this multidisciplinary team, and Kellogg staff arrange for them to be seen by their multidisciplinary team at one appointment, not only for their convenience but to provide a consensus on their course of treatment. Our use of one of the most advanced Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems in the country enhances our open communication and promotes collaboration in our patient care.
Additional Patient Support
Kellogg Cancer Center's unique services and resources assist patients and family members with a variety of challenges they may face from diagnosis, treatment and beyond. A wide array of support services are available to patients that include our integrative medicine services, financial advocacy and survivorship, to name a few.

EPA Recognizes Organizations for Improving Chemical Safety in Schools
Release Date: 10/22/2009
Contact Information: Latisha Petteway, firstname.lastname@example.com, 202-564-3191, 202-564-4355
WASHINGTON – The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is honoring 11 organizations for promoting responsible chemical management and helping remove potentially dangerous chemicals from K-12 schools in their communities. Working with EPA's Schools Chemical Cleanout Campaign (SC3), the organizations removed an estimated 70,000 pounds of potentially dangerous chemicals from approximately 300 schools.
"This campaign reflects the very best of what we have to offer. It brings together local volunteers, educators, partners in the business community, and many others in service to our communities, and helps us in our most important work: protecting the health and safety of our children," said EPA Administrator Lisa P. Jackson. "We're grateful for all the dedicated citizens stepping up to confront our most urgent environmental and children's health challenges. They're ensuring that our schools are safe places for children to learn, play and grow."
The organizations were recognized for a range of activities contributing to a reduction in chemical hazards, including:
- assisting schools in developing accurate chemical inventories,
- removing and properly disposing of outdated, unknown, and unneeded chemicals, and
- establishing sustainable programs to properly manage chemicals by training school administrators and teachers on responsible chemical management and green lesson planning.
EPA estimates that more than 33,000 middle and high schools across the country have potentially harmful chemicals that put students and staff at risk. SC3 works with schools, community organizations, and industry to help prevent chemical exposures through proper chemical management.

Remember the senior couple whose video I posted in the blog a few days ago? They indeed turned into instant celebrities! With more than seven million views on YouTube, I think the charming couple can really be considered an internet sensation, right! :)
The couple was identified as Bruce Huffman, 86 and his wife Esther 79. Both are living in a retirement community in Oregon. In an interview, they said that they surely did not plan it but are happy to hear that a lot of people enjoyed and are still enjoying the short video. Esther quipped, had she known they were recording themselves, she could have stopped chewing that gum! Such a cool granny :) I hope to see more of their videos, that is if they plan to do another one again :)

Cecil, Delabar take unlikely paths to All-Star Game
Blue Jays relievers have found groove after years spent in and out of Majors
NEW YORK -- Brett Cecil and Steve Delabar didn't seem like future All-Stars three years ago. Cecil was a starting pitcher struggling to keep his ERA below 4.25, and Delabar was spending his days as a substitute teacher in Kentucky.
Now, the duo is helping to anchor the back end of the Blue Jays' bullpen. They've both put their past struggles -- and a teaching career -- behind them, and they've played integral roles for a relief corps whose 2.90 ERA this season is the third-best mark in the Major Leagues.
On Tuesday, Cecil and Delabar will have a chance to pitch on a stage they never thought they would reach: the 2013 All-Star Game at Citi Field.
"I never envisioned an All-Star Game, especially after the couple of years that I had," Cecil said. "So it makes it even more of a blessing and an honor to be here."
Cecil's appearance at the Midsummer Classic comes during a season in which he wasn't even guaranteed a spot on the Blue Jays' roster. The left-hander had to earn a job during Spring Training and wasn't informed he was heading north until one of the final days during camp.
But after posting an underwhelming 4.79 ERA as a starter over the first four years of his career, Cecil has excelled in his first extended look as a reliever. He's allowed just 10 runs in 46 1/3 innings this season, posting a 1.94 ERA with 55 strikeouts.
"If you don't have confidence, you don't have anything," Cecil said. "I knew my stuff was good, but giving up hits, blowing a save -- little things just start creeping back in your head. Bad things. It's just how you deal with that kind of stuff."
Cecil has figured out how to deal with bad outings this year, and his success has made him one of the elite left-handed relievers in the league. He set a franchise record earlier this year by going through 40 at-bats without surrendering a hit, and he also went through a span of 20 innings without allowing a run.
"Don't get too high, don't get too low in your performances. Short memory," Cecil said. "That's been my motto this year."
Delabar took a much different path to his first All-Star appearance. The right-hander spent six years in the Minor Leagues before fracturing his elbow in 2009 and leaving the game of baseball entirely.
Serving as a substitute teacher and assistant baseball coach at John Hardin (Ky.) High School, Delabar used a weighted-ball workout program to regain velocity on his fastball and eventually decided to attempt a comeback at the age of 28. He was signed by the Mariners and went through all three levels of the Minors before making his Major League debut -- all of which happened in one calendar year.
Delabar was traded to the Blue Jays in July 2012 and has been one of the most dominant relievers in baseball ever since. So far this season, he is 5-1 with a 1.71 ERA and 58 strikeouts in 42 innings, a mark that ranks third among American League relievers.
Delabar earned his spot on the All-Star team by winning the Final Vote, beating out four other AL relievers.
"It's just an unbelievable feeling. Growing up, you see all the names of the players that come to these events. You envision yourself doing something like that down the road, you think, 'I'm going to be a Major Leaguer and I'm going to play in their shoes and all that,'" Delabar said. "But then to come here and actually be a part of it is something special."
Their All-Star experience has barely begun, but Cecil and Delabar have been enjoying their time in New York. Both will be on the field with their families on Monday for the Chevrolet Home Run Derby, and they might both be on the mound on Tuesday.
"I don't want to put it way up on some pedestal, but it's really, really cool to be a part of this," Delabar said. "Most of the guys here on the scouting report are the guys we want to stay away from. But now we want to get close to them, meet them, get some type of bond with the guys here and have a good time."
"It's been fantastic, and we haven't even done anything yet," Cecil said. "On the bus ride here is when it really hit me that, 'You're sitting on a bus with a bunch of All-Stars, and you've been very blessed to be named one of them.'"
The final phase of All-Star Game voting will again have fans participating in the official voting for the Ted Williams All-Star Game Most Valuable Player Award presented by Chevrolet. During the Midsummer Classic, fans will vote exclusively online at MLB.com via the 2013 All-Star Game MLB.com MVP Vote, and their voice will represent 20 percent of the official vote determining the recipient of the Arch Ward Trophy.
The 2013 All-Star Game will be played at Citi Field on Tuesday. Come to MLB.com for extensive online coverage of the All-Star Week festivities.
The 84th All-Star Game will be televised nationally by FOX Sports, in Canada by Rogers Sportsnet and RDS, and worldwide by partners in more than 200 countries via MLB International's independent feed. ESPN Radio and ESPN Radio Deportes will provide national radio coverage of the All-Star Game. MLB Network and SiriusXM also will also provide comprehensive All-Star Week coverage.

Seems like we need to cut to the chase on solar panels. I think its reasonable to expect that your solar panel charges your battery in a day of full sun. That way you can boondock as long as you want.
Here's what you need:
1) 65W (minimum!) Solar panel
2) Sunsaver 10 Solar panel controller
3) #12 wires from the solar panel, to the controller, to the battery
Wait a minute you say, I've been to a bunch of solar web sites and there's charts and graphs and battery sizes and all kinds of stuff. What size panel do I need? Why do I need a controller? How do I wire it? Why did you pick such a small wire, isn't that too small? I have a battery charger, won't that screw things up? And whats that aiming stuff about, don't I have to angle my panel or something?
- Solar Panel Size
Solar panels aren't as efficient as we would hope. You can get a 5W panel because its real cheap but it won't charge your battery, it will just maintain it. Get the largest size you can afford and they aren't cheap. Expect to pay about $6/watt. Don't expect the panel to completely charge the battery in one day (in full sun) if its less than 65W. 85W is better. And don't be a battery hog! Minimize your power usage, treat electricity like water and turn it off as soon as you can. The more juice you use the bigger solar panel you will need. A 65W panel is the smallest you can get and reasonably expect to charge your battery in one day with miserly power usage.
- Battery Size
Wow, there's a lot of debate on this topic. Get a group 27 Deep Cycle battery if you don't want to think about it. Use an online amp-hour calculator if you want to be more precise and get a more exact battery size. But the bottom line is that a 120 amp-hour group 27 battery is about the best choice when it comes to capacity versus cost.
- Controllers
You need a controller so you don't overcharge your battery and ruin it. Small panels don't need a controller but you don't want a small panel because it won't charge your battery in a day. A Sunsaver 10 is a good compromise between cost and efficiency. It's rated for 10A so you can start with an 65 or 85W panel and add another one in the future if you really get into solar power. If you're sure you won't every get another panel you can go with the Sunsaver 6.
- Wiring a Solar Panel
Its easy to wire a solar panel. Two wires from the panel to the controller. Two wires from the controller to the battery. Stick a 15A fuse on the positive wire between the battery and the controller. Keep the fuse as close to the controller as you can. Read the instructions that come with the panel, controller and battery and make sure you follow the polarity marking ( + and -) on each device.
- #12 wire
The power wasted in voltage drop through a 10' section of #12 wire from an 85W solar panel to your battery is about half a watt. Don't worry about it.
- Battery Charger
The Sunchaser controller "knows" if a battery charger is in use and shuts down the panel. It turns it back on if you turn off the battery charger. If its dark outside the panel won't be working anyways. It also "knows" if your charging the battery off the 12V side of a generator and shuts down the panel.
- Aiming
Okay, here's where you have to make some decisions that will affect how much solar panel you buy. You can expect to gain about 20% extra charging capacity if you're real anal and point the panel right at the sun every 30 minutes or so. If you're lazy like me you can just lay the panel flat where it will get full sun and forget about it. Bump the panel sizes shown above up by 20% if you can't be bothered by angling the panel towards the sun. But watch out for any kind of shade on your panel. Just the tiniest, little bit of shading will cripple your panel's output.
Okay, I've been a bit flip about this but I feel like I can be because my solar panel system has worked like a champ and I don't have to worry about battery capacity anymore. There's a ton of technical items that can be discussed about solar panels, and they're all relevant. BUT, I don't believe that it will change the sizes of the items I've posted above by much. And if you're just trying to get into a solar panel system without having to take an engineering course, you can't go wrong with what I've posted. You just might not like the price, but what are you going to do?

The Houston Dynamo fought the heat, humidity and an organized home defense in the CONCACAF Champions League opener at W Connection and picked up just a point for their troubles with a 0-0 draw on Tuesday night in Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago.
In the early going, neither club was eager to come out of their shell, and despite a late push, the scoreline rarely looked in danger of changing. When it did, the lack of a final touch failed players on both sides.
No one will know that better than W Connection midfielder Neil Benjamin, as his two late misses deprived his team of the full three points.
Houston were late to get back on a counter in the 73rd minute and W Connection had Dynamo goalkeeper Tally Hall beaten on a two-on-one break. Benjamin, however, hesitated and put the point blank shot in the side netting to keep things tied up.
Compounding the home side's frustration, Benjamin got on a break in the 85th minute down the left flank. But like his first attempt, a right-footed chip, was just off target, striking the frame of the goal and bouncing away.
Benjamin's late efforts were the best in a handful of attempts that the Trinidadian club created in the final 20 minutes. But like their visitors, none of their chances found the back of the net.
Houston weren't without chances, either, which were mainly created by a midfield led by Andrew Driver and Jason Johnson on either flank.
Before the failed breakaway on the other end, Johnson smashed a shot in the penalty box right into a W Connection defender, perpetuating the theme of an organized, compact home defense making life miserable on the Dynamo attack.
After the measured start to the game, Houston came alive in the 35th minute when debutant Designated Player Alexander López, who was active in his playmaking role, ignited an attack up the spine, linking with Driver through the middle. The Scotsman took López's feed and found a hard-charging Johnson, who was active all night, but the rookie cut loose a moonshot to kill the attack.
Two minutes later Kofi Sarkodie found Brian Ching after a redirected corner kick. The veteran forward one-touched a ball to forward partner Cam Weaver but the shot across his body was over the crossbar.
Weaver had two late chances at headers in the final four minutes, once on a corner and the other on a Driver cross, but neither effort found the back of the net, leaving both sides with a point apiece.
Houston will return to MLS play on Saturday when they travel to Montreal to face the Impact before hosting Panamanian club Árabe Unido, who sit atop Group 1 after an earlier win over W Connection on August 27.

The official lyric video for "Apocryphon", the title track of the fourth album from Austin, Texas metal luminaries THE SWORD, can be seen below. Due on October 22 via Razor & Tie, the CD was produced and engineered by J. Robbins (CLUTCH, JAWBOX) at Magpie Cage Studios and features cover art by famed comic book artist J.H. Williams III (Batwoman, Promethea).
"Apocryphon" track listing:
01. The Veil Of Isis
02. Cloak Of Feathers
03. Arcane Montane
04. The Hidden Masters
05. Dying Earth
06. Execrator
07. Seven Sisters
08. Hawks And Serpents
09. Eyes Of The Stormwitch
10. Apocryphon
Bonus tracks:
01. Arrows In The Dark (live at Emo's)
02. Barael's Blade (live at Emo's)
03. Chronomancer II: Nemesis (live at Stubb's)
04. Ebethron (live at Stubb's)
05. Cheap Sunglasses
"The Veil Of Isis" can be streamed at RollingStone.com.
According to THE SWORD frontman J.D. Cronise, "The Veil Of Isis" is the most "SWORD-ish" song of the album musically, yet notes that lyrically, "it's a little more metaphysical than a lot of our previous stuff. It talks a lot about cycles of nature and life and death and birth and transformation and death and rebirth.
"In essence, the song is about change," Cronise tells RollingStone.com. "[It's about] moving from one phase of the natural cycle to the next and the recognition of the knowledge revealed when such transitions occur. The lyrics make reference to Isis, the goddess of nature and magic, and her brother/husband Osiris, the god of the dead and the afterlife, as agents of those changes and keepers of sacred knowledge. The 'veil' is that which hides from us the true nature of the universe that, during our earthly existence, is largely hidden from us."
THE SWORD is now offering a limited-time-offer bundle including:
* Autographed limited-edition glow-in-the-dark 12-inch vinyl
* "Apocryphon" deluxe version digipak CD
* Three hand-numbered triptych 11 x 17 lithograph black light reactive posters
* Exclusive limited-offer "Apocryphon" T-shirt
* "Apocryphon" slipmat
* Includes digital download code
Asked about the band's decision to work with J. Robbins on "Apocryphon" after self-producing two records and then working with Matt Bayles, THE SWORD guitarist Kyle Shutt told AltPress.com, "We're all huge CLUTCH fans, and we know those guys real well. [James] did two of their last three records, and those sound great, so we figured it was a no-brainer. We called him up and he was into it. He saw our live show at a club in Baltimore on the tour before we came here so he could get a feel of the kind of show we put on because we wanted to make an album that sounds like we do live in a club. And it was great. It was a real speedy process."
On the topic of the musical direction of the new album, Shutt said, "It is a reflection of everything that we [have gone] through and the lessons we learned. We then deal with these situations metaphorically in our lyrics. This record is just 10 banging hard rockers. There's no real 'stick-out' thrash song, or, like, this one is the ballad. I don't think there's going to be any instrumental songs on this record, either, so that'll be a first for us. It's just 10 kick-ass rock songs."
Regarding the subject matter covered in the new songs' lyrics, Shutt said, "There are lyrical themes that weave in and out of the songs, but there's no story or anything like that. With 'Warp Riders', J.D. [guitarist/vocalist John Cronise] had already written [the story] and now he [doesn't] have the time to sit down and write another book. We had the idea to make a comic book for 'Warp Riders', but we had some really poor management at the time, so nothing really came together with that and it was going to cost so much money that it never saw the light of day. It was just a nice thing we did. Now we're moving on to other things."

I have a specific question about verbal inflection and how best to explain the correct usage and a general question about verb tenses/conjugation and how best to explain correct usage.
Sometimes explaining these things in a way that helps people to understand can be very difficult. I am a computer programmer mentoring a young woman who is very skilled at programming but speaks very poorly. I would like to do a better job of helping her recognize and correct some of her more glaring mistakes as her poor speech causes others to dismiss her as unintelligent when in fact she is quite bright. Unfortunately for me I started reading at a very young age and totally ignored my teachers when all of this was being discussed in class because correct syntax was already ingrained so I didn't bother learning the rules and terminology. That leaves me at a loss when I need to explain the correct usage to others.
Specific question: How would you go about explaining that to say "He ran the race yesterday" is correct, but to say "He had already ran the race when I called him" is not correct. In other words, the second sentence should be "He had already run the race when I called him."
General question: I've tried correcting younger people who say, for example, "They does their work very well" only to be told "does" is correct because "they" is plural and so the verb has to have an "s". Do you have any suggestions for me in helping to correct these kinds of misunderstandings?
Thank you!
