I remember when the Philippines closed the U.S. bases at Clark Field and Subic Bay. They wanted the Americans out, not because they hated America (they don’t) or hated democracy (they don’t), but because it was their country and they didn’t want the former imperial power interfering with their politics (which we did). They kicked us out, and see if you can find a Filipino who regrets it.</html>

== Mariners soufflent Red Sox par un 12 ==

Mariners verser sur le terrain après la démolition de la Boston Red Sox 11-4 . Justin Smoak a eu trois coups sûrs tout Raul Ibanez a frappé son 22e home run . Cette éruption 11-4 par les Mariners n'étais pas juste une nuit de positif en raison de la note finale . Non,[http://www.cheapsalejerseys.com/nfl-jerseys-c-598 Hot Sale 2013 Latest NFL Jerseys], ce sera s'il vous plaît laiton supérieur de l'équipe le plus, c'est que certains des gars qui font le plus de dégâts . Vous aviez Justin Smoak recueillir trois coups sûrs , dont une paire de doubles avec des coureurs en position de marquer . Ensuite, vous aviez Michael Saunders avec une paire de doubles et dans son premier jeu multi -extra -base- coup depuis le chemin du retour le 15 mai. Saunders, n oubliez pas , aussi avait cette maison courir ce week-end contre les Reds , alors il pourrait se dégager lentement de cette longue crise dévastatrice qui avait déraillé sa saison 2013. Ces deux joueurs sont beaucoup plus avancés dans leur développement que des gars comme Nick Franklin et Brad Miller. Cela s importante que nous avons encore à voir Miller et lutte Franklin encore comme ils le feront inevitaly . Avec Saunders et Smoak , ils avez aussi traversé des années de tourmente . Si elles ne peuvent sortir de son aspect massif, cela aiderait énormément cette équipe dans les années à venir. Smoak a en ce moment une OPS élevés que Kendrys Morales ? 0,788 à 0,778 . Et la moyenne de puissance de Smoak est maintenant à .419 pour aller avec une brillante .369 OBP . Pour Saunders , il n'est pas aussi loin dans ce que cela représente vraiment quelques jeux mieux frapper pour lui. Mais il a utilisé sa puissance et de vitesse ce soir et les Mariners aura ces deux choses n'importe où ils peuvent le trouver . Raul Ibanez poursuivit son chemin et a maintenant 22 courses à la maison avant le All-Star break . C'est la huitième homer Ibanez off un lanceur gaucher cette saison et aussi son troisième sur une hauteur de 0-2. Felix Hernandez a accordé deux points en sept manches et sort avec une des victoires les plus faciles qu'il aurez jamais cran.
 +
<html>Mariners pour on to the field after demolishing the Boston Red Sox 11-4. Justin Smoak had three hits while Raul Ibanez hit his 22nd home run.
 +
This 11-4 blowout by the Mariners wasn t just a positive night because of the final score. No, what will please the team s upper brass the most was some of the guys doing the biggest damage.
 +
You had Justin Smoak collecting three hits, including a pair of doubles with runners in scoring position. Then, you had Michael Saunders with a pair of doubles as well in his first multi-extra-base-hit game since way back on May 15. Saunders,[http://msr3.com/nikon_d5100/000080.html#comments Age of attente dossier sébaste capturé par Seatt], don t forget, also had that home run over the weekend against the Reds, so he might be slowly emerging from that long,[http://www.cheapsalejerseys.com/ Latest 2013 NFL Jerseys], devastating slump that had derailed his 2013 season.
 +
Both of those players are a lot further along in their development than guys like Nick Franklin and Brad Miller. That s significant in that we ve yet to see Miller and Franklin struggle yet as they inevitaly will.
 +
With Saunders and Smoak, they ve both gone through years of turmoil. If they can emerge from it looking solid, it would help this team enormously in the years ahead.
 +
Smoak right now has a higher OPS than Kendrys Morales? .788 to .778. And Smoak s slugging percentage is now up to .419 to go with a stellar .369 OBP.
 +
For Saunders, he s not as far along in that this really represents a few better-hitting games for him. But he used his power and speed tonight and the Mariners will take both those things anyplace they can find it.
 +
Raul Ibanez kept on going and now has 22 home runs before the All-Star Break. It was Ibanez s eighth homer off a lefthanded pitcher this season and also his third on an 0-2 pitch.
 +
Felix Hernandez allowed two runs over seven innings and emerges with one of the easier wins he ll ever notch.</html>

Starting over in a new city is stressful, even more so if you don t have friends there already.? You have a million questions who can you turn to for recommendations and advice?

For anyone moving to Seattle and needing information,[http://blueeye99.com/wiki/index.php/%EC%82%AC%EC%9A%A9%EC%9E%90:Adovsszyoa#Latest_ocean_salmon_catch_figures Latest ocean salmon catch figures], one great resource is Reddit, the online social media community.? Seattle has one of the most active city  and newcomers often post questions for locals about life in the Emerald City.
 +
This week, one couple who are in the process of relocating to Seattle  to the Reddit community.? The couple asked for help finding a neighborhood where they won t have to deal with kids:
 +
We love our nieces and nephews, but call us terrible people: we don t have kids and really would prefer to not have a lot of kids around when we are trying to relax at home What s a good area/apartment building that doesn t have a lot of kids around?
 +
Redditors were quick to let this couple know that they re relocating to the right place.? The top-rated reply suggested that any area of the city would do: Children aren t illegal per se in Seattle, but having them is generally discouraged.

Indeed, Seattle has one of the lowest percentages of kids of any city in the U.S.? Just 16 percent of Seattle s population is under 18, according to 2013 estimates from data provider Experian.

Still, even in Seattle,[http://www.cheapsalejerseys.com/ Wholesale NFL Jerseys Pro Shop], there is a wide range of childlessness from neighborhood to neighborhood.? The most child-heavy area Laurelhurst has 11 times the concentration of kids as Belltown, the neighborhood with the lowest percentage of children.
 +
Redditors mostly got it right.? Four of the top five childless neighborhoods were highly recommended to the kid-averse couple: Belltown, Downtown, Lower Queen Anne and the University District.? However, nobody suggested Westlake,[http://www.cheapsalejerseys.com/ Cheap Nike NFL jerseys Supplier], the No. 5 neighborhood.

And the most frequently mentioned neighborhood in the Reddit responses Capitol Hill has an under-18 population at 9 percent.? Not bad, but just outside the top 10.</html>

Lorsqu'on lui a demandé ce qu'elle pensait de son fils l'obtention du grade d'Eagle, Katie Sullivan a répondu pensivement, Que sa double réponse. Je regarde en arrière et je vois les luttes qu'il a pris, mais de l'autre côté de celui-ci, c'est qu'il colle à la peau et a surmonté ces luttes. Je suis juste fier de lui. Lorsqu'on lui a demandé la même question à un autre moment, Bruce Sullivan, Micah père a fait écho son épouse Katie déclarant, je suis juste fier de lui. C'était beaucoup de travail et je suis content qu'il colle à la peau. Histoire gracieuseté de Bill Sullivan.

<html><head><title>html模版</title></head><body>BHS students awarded Eagle Rank</br>BEAVERCREEK Beavercreek Varsity Scout Team 870 recently hosted a double barreled celebration of excellence as two of its members received the highly esteemed rank of Eagle Scout on the same day.
 +
 +
Jacob Dorsten and Micah Sullivan, both of whom recently completed their freshman year at Beavercreek High School, were recognized for their outstanding scouting achievements at their joint Eagle Court of Honor on Saturday, June 29.
 +
 +
Varsity Scout Team 870 is sponsored by the Xenia Ward of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, and the Eagle Court of Honor was held in the LDS Church building at 3072 Shakertown Road.
 +
 +
The court of honor was called to order by Unit Commissioner, Kevin Thomson, and the posting of the colors (old glory and the unit flag) was accomplished by the brothers of Jacob and Micah: Cole Dorsten, Anthony Dorsten and Talon Sullivan. All assembled were then invited to participate in the reciting the Scout Oath, led by Troop 870 Committee Member,[http://www.cheapsalejerseys.com/dallas-cowboys-c-598_641 Cheap Dallas Cowboys Jerseys on sale], Kevin Bray, followed by an invocation offered by Micah s sister, Lexi Sullivan. Next on the program it was the privilege of Richard Kemp to offer a tribute to his grandson, Jacob Dorsten, followed by a tribute from Bill Sullivan to his grandson,[http://www.cheapsalejerseys.com/ Cheap Nike NFL jerseys Supplier], Micah Sullivan.
 +
 +
Assistant Varsity Scout Coach Travis Gerritsen initiated the long standing tradition of calling all those in attendance who had previously been honored as Eagle Scouts to come forward and sit together in the Eagles Nest of seating set aside for this purpose. Fourteen individuals did so, thus exemplifying the long standing tradition of scouting excellence of this organization.
 +
 +
The two new Eagles were then sworn in by receiving the Eagle Charge from Troop 870 Scoutmaster Brandon Wilkinson before receiving their Eagle badges from Varsity Team 870 Coach Chad Hale.
 +
 +
The program benediction was offered by Jacob s grandmother, Sherry Kemp, and the colors were retired before dismissing the court to enjoy an abundance of cake, cookies, fruit, vegetables and other treats washed down with fruit drink.
 +
 +
When asked what he had learned along the trail to Eagle, Jacob Dorsten replied, Push younger scouts to make it all the way to Eagle. Jacob s mom, Anna Dorsten, was quick to add (with a mother s smile of pride for her oldest son on her face), He s only taking three merit badges at summer camp this year so he can help younger scouts with theirs. He just needs to make sure he completes his three.
 +
 +
When asked what he thought of his son obtaining the rank of Eagle, Scott Dorsten responded with a big smile and a short, yet resounding sentence, I m proud of him.
 +
 +
Micah Sullivan s response to what he had learned along the trail to Eagle was Leadership: capturing people s attention, being able to express what you are trying to say to your peers and implementing what you teach to others in your life.
 +
 +
When asked what she thought of her son obtaining the rank of Eagle, Katie Sullivan replied thoughtfully, That s a twofold answer. I look back and see the struggles it took, but the other side of it is that he stuck with it and overcame those struggles. I m just proud of him. When asked the same question at a different time, Bruce Sullivan, Micah s dad echoed his wife Katie stating, I m just proud of him. It was a lot of work and I m glad he stuck with it.

 +
 +
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
 +
 +
UNIDENTIFIED MALE:&nbsp;Are you confident that you know everything that's going on within that agency and that you can say to the American people it is all done the right way?
 +
 +
PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA:&nbsp;Yes, but what I have also said is that it can only work if the American people trust what's going on.
 +
 +
SCOTT:&nbsp;Mr. Obama trying to convince us that NSA's spying is for our own good. But as more details surface about the excessive effort should we be concerned? Are the media concerned?
 +
 +
Conflicts in the Middle East continue to heat up.
 +
 +
UNIDENTIFIED MALE:&nbsp;Allahu akbar!
 +
 +
SCOTT:&nbsp;Chemical attacks in Syria. Killing more than a thousand. The situation raising questions about our president's position. Is the press pushing for action? Violence against Christians on the rise in that region. Their plight being ignored by most in the media. The murder of a white college student by three bored teens in Oklahoma ignites more debate about race and crime. But this time the mainstream media don't seem to be interested.
 +
 +
UNIDENTIFIED MALE:&nbsp;Welcome, everyone.
 +
 +
SCOTT:&nbsp;Al Jazeera America makes its debut. Will Americans buy what they are selling? And if dark clouds are bothering your White House, why not bring in something sunny?
 +
 +
(END VIDEO CLIP)
 +
 +
SCOTT:&nbsp;On the panel this week, writer and Fox News contributor Judy Miller. Syndicated columnist Cal Thomas. Jim Pinkerton, contributing editor of The American Conservative Magazine. Daily Beast columnist Kirsten Powers. And Fox News contributor Richard Grenell. I'm Jon Scott. "Fox News Watch" is on right now.
 +
 +
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
 +
 +
OBAMA:&nbsp;We can and must be more transparent. So I directed the intelligence community to make public as much information about these programs as possible. All these steps are designed to ensure that the American people can trust their efforts are in line with our interests and our values. And to others around the world I want to make clear once again that America is not interested in spying on ordinary people. Our intelligence is focused, above all, on finding the information that's necessary to protect our people and in many cases protect our allies.
 +
 +
(END VIDEO CLIP)
 +
 +
SCOTT:&nbsp;That was the president earlier this month trying to convince Americans his administration is doing all it can to be transparent in regard to the NSA collection of data. This week, a 2011 declassified report was released. It shows that the agency scooped up as many as 56,000 e-mails and other communications from Americans with no connection to terrorism. The report also included the opinions from the then chief judge of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance court. Judge John Bates writing, "For the first time, the government has now advised the court that the volume and nature of the information it has been collecting is fundamentally different from what the court had been led to believe."
 +
 +
Media reaction to all of the new details about the NSA's spying has been mixed. Although some in the press are beginning to turn up the heat. Questioning what the president and his administration are telling us. Jeff Jarvis at The Guardian writes -- "The punch line of the Snowden affair, when we can't trust what government tells us we come to trust those who government doesn't trust. Thus we no longer necessarily care what the official line is. And who delivers it. And when that happens, access, the currency of the beltway becomes worthless. Ah, the irony."
 +
 +
So, Jim, this report was out. It was prepared, I should say, before the president made those comments and before the president made some changes to the way the NSA operates.
 +
 +
JIM PINKERTON, THE AMERICAN CONSERVATIVE MAGAZINE:&nbsp;Right.
 +
 +
SCOTT:&nbsp;So, should we trust everything now .
 +
 +
PINKERTON:&nbsp;The old joke, we are going to hear from the government to help you - protect you, it's - it's - look, Peggy Noonan wrote a terrific column on Friday, in which she said that the net result of all this is to turn Americans into, quote, solemnly paranoid in terms of this - fatalism -- no, I think they might be angry - angry as well. But look, this -- if I were the president I would just stop making statements that seem to be undercut by his own actions a week or two later.
 +
 +
SCOTT:&nbsp;What about the mainstream media coverage? It seems to have sort of -- dismissed this scandal, Judy?
 +
 +
JUDY MILLER, WRITER FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR: I don't think it did. I think The Wall Street Journal and "The New York Times" stories on the NSA ruling that -- you know, the 2011 ruling that we were just talking about, really raises some profound questions about whether or not these are just kind of accidental whoopses in the system or there was a policy, which was unconstitutional. I don't -- I don't think that that means -- I think that indicates the media are finally taking this story very seriously. And that the -- trust me is being replaced by the - trust, but verified mantra of President Reagan. The media should be upset.
 +
 +
SCOTT:&nbsp;And Rick, we have been told that this is all supervised by the FISA court, Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act court. But the chief judge at the time said hey, they were pulling the wool over our eyes here.
 +
 +
RICK GRENELL, FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR:&nbsp;Yeah. There's really been problems all the way around. You will notice that the U.S. media is really beginning to say that this is about the U.S. government or our government. They are really not fingering Obama on this. However, there is a piece in the Atlantic this week by Philip Bump and he points out that President Obama's independent review board is not independent at all. And I think what we are seeing week is a real unraveling where the media are only beginning to say this is Obama's fault,[http://www.wzntj.com/home.php?mod=space&uid=90338 ], not just the U.S. government or the government.
 +
 +
SCOTT:&nbsp;And then there was sort of a side media story this week. Glenn Greenwald, the reporter who along with Edward Snowden, broke the story of the NSA surveillance. His partner, guy named David Miranda, was detained by British officials for nine hours on a -- terrorism charge of some sort. And some of his personal property was seized. Any reaction from the media?
 +
 +
KIRSTEN POWERS, DAILY BEAST COLUMNIST USA TODAY CONTRIBUTOR: Well, I mean, I think that there's everybody - pretty much was horrified by this. I don't think Obama has the media on his side on this issue, particularly because they've targeted the media, so that worked against them from the beginning. But the Glenn Greenwald thing was completely outrageous, because he was held for nine hours, which under the law, in which they were holding him, you can hold somebody up to nine hours. They literally kept him as long as you possible could,[http://www.cheapsalejerseys.com/dallas-cowboys-c-598_641 Cheap Dallas Cowboys Jerseys on sale], he hasn't done anything other than being - in a relationship with Glenn Greenwald who is a journalist and is allowed to do what he is doing. So, and then it was reported that the United States knew ahead of time that this was going to happen, so, you know, the administration should be held accountable for this.
 +
 +
SCOTT:&nbsp;But then Greenwald's reaction was interesting, Cal. He says, "I will be far more aggressive in my reporting from now on, I'm going to publish many more documents. I'm going to publish things on England, too. I have many documents on England's spy system. I think they will be sorry for what they did." Now, is that what a journalist is supposed to do?
 +
 +
CAL THOMAS, SYNDICATED COLUMNIST:&nbsp;Well, yes and no. But the International Herald Tribune this week had a front page story about this,[http://www.cheapsalejerseys.com/nfl-jerseys-c-598 Hot Sale 2013 Latest NFL Jerseys], and they interviewed Alan Rusbridger, the editor of The Guardian, and he made a very valid point. I think, he said -- our laws in Britain are different than American laws regarding journalists. As - Kirsten said, they interrogated this guy, this partner of Greenwald for nine hours. Now, this is just amazing. I mean, where do you go from there?
 +
 +
PINKERTON:&nbsp;Right. The -- interesting question is what -- connection this had back to the U.S. government. I mean, there's not been a lot of energetic reporting show and say, on whether -- how far in advance they knew about this. Whether the White House - the White House (inaudible). Yeah, we knew about it. We've got a heads-up. Well, that's not actually not quite the way it works in this Intel business.
 +
 +
MILLER:&nbsp;Under British law, they can hold someone for nine hours. What they -- Brits said was that Mr. Miranda was carrying stolen information. And they were holding him under the terrorism act. Now, we can quibble about whether or not that was the proper vehicle of law to hold him under, but he was acting as Glenn Greenwald's mule is what the British government alleged and that argument wasn't really made or heard well here in the United States.
 +
 +
PINKERTON:&nbsp;Is it by Jeffrey Toobin at CNN who repeated it verbatim?
 +
 +
POWERS:&nbsp;Yeah. I think it (inaudible). And I don't think -- I mean, his partner also works with him in the -- on his journalism. And so, I think that he has the same - should have the same protection as him .
 +
 +
GRENELL:&nbsp;Well, that's the poor argument, Kirsten.
 +
 +
POWERS:&nbsp;- No, it's not.
 +
 +
GRENELL:&nbsp;I think that's a really poor argument because Glenn Greenwald gave this information to a non-journalist. I don't care if they were married or if they are partners. The simple fact is that he gave it to a non-journalist. You completely give up your ability to say .
 +
 +
POWERS:&nbsp;How was - if he is working with Glenn on his journalism, he is not a non-journalist .

For my previous Pre-2013 Home Run Derby Post, .
 +
 +
 +
Running my Predictions on the 2012 Home Run Derby
 +
 +
Partially by analyzing statistics, and mostly by a huge amount of luck, I correctly predicted to win the 2013 Home Run Derby. . So, here is my work,[http://www.cheapsalejerseys.com/ Latest 2013 NFL Jerseys], as explained in my . The top table shows the players statistics I analyzed, and other info relating to them. HR were chosen from the first half of the season, while all of the other stats were chosen from the entire 2012 season because those were the only stats available to me. The bottom table shows how many points a batter gained or lost per each stat category, then their total overall score. A higher score corresponds to a better finishing position. At the time this was created, there were about 15 minutes until derby time. I decided that these weights had to do, there was no time for tinkering, and I moved on.
 +
 +
 +
2013 Data
 +
 +
I then applied these results to the 2013 Home Run Derby contestants.<br>

 +
 +
Some statistics were based on judgement, pitches taken may be off by a few.

I picked first and last correctly. Good enough to make me seem somewhat smart. Also, it s very interesting to see how the differences between Predicted and Actual Place mirror exactly. 0, 4, 1, 3, 3, 1, 4, 0. I ll look into that. It s either a huge coincidence, or a sign that I m onto something.

I then proceeded to take down statistics for the actual Home Run Derby. For statistics sake, I counted Swings as At-Bats,[http://www.cheapsalejerseys.com/ Cheap Nike NFL jerseys Supplier], Balls caught by the kids as "actual outs", Balls taken as walks, Whiffs as Strikeouts, and Total Pitches as Batters Faced. Looking at the numbers,[http://www.szcxsyhf.com/bbs/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=3594334 Life Or Death For Hasan-], had the highest groundball percentage at 11.43% compared to his regular season number at the time of 20.5%. Interestingly,  had the highest Fly Ball percentage of all participants, but finished last for the second straight year. As expected by his place, his pitcher s FIP (Or a sloppy representation of it) was the lowest of the eight. Leading to his father being forever solidified in history as being one of the greatest Home Run Derby pitchers of our generation. i m not entirely sure why I took down all of this data, seeing how insignificant it is, but it exists.

== Stats show Americans not that into driving anymore ==
 +
 +
<html>WASHINGTON (AP) ― Driving in America has stalled, leading researchers to ask: Is the national love affair with the automobile over?
 +
 +
After rising for decades, total vehicle use in the U.S. ― the collective miles people drive ― peaked in August 2007. It then dropped sharply during the Great Recession and has largely plateaued since, even though the economy is recovering and the population growing. Just this week the  reported vehicle miles traveled during the first half of 2013 were down slightly,[http://www.cheapsalejerseys.com/ Cheap Nike NFL jerseys Supplier], continuing the trend.
 +
 +
Even more telling, the average miles drivers individually rack up peaked in July 2004 at just over 900 per month, said a study by  economists  and David Pace. By July of last year, that had fallen to 820 miles per month, down about 9 percent. Per capita automobile use is now back at the same levels as in the late 1990s.
 +
 +
Until the mid-1990s, driving levels largely tracked economic growth, according to Pickrell and Pace, who said their conclusions are their own and not the government's. Since then, the economy has grown more rapidly than auto use. Gross domestic product declined for a while during the recession but reversed course in 2009. Auto use has yet to recover.
 +
 +
Meanwhile, the share of people in their teens, 20s and 30s with driver's licenses has been dropping significantly, suggesting that getting a driver's license is no longer the teenage rite of passage it once was.
 +
 +
Researchers are divided on the reasons behind the trends. One camp says the changes are almost entirely linked to the economy. In a few years, as the economy continues to recover, driving will probably bounce back, they reason. At the same time, they acknowledge there could be long-term structural changes in the economy that would prevent a return to the levels of driving growth seen in the past; it's just too soon to know.
 +
 +
The other camp acknowledges that economic factors are important but says the decline in driving also reflects fundamental changes in the way Americans view the automobile. For commuters stuck in traffic, getting into a car no longer correlates with fun. It's also becoming more of a headache to own a car in central cities and downright difficult to park.
 +
 +
"The idea that the car means freedom, I think, is over," said travel behavior analyst .
 +
 +
Gone are the days of the car culture as immortalized in songs like "Hot Rod Lincoln," ''Little Deuce Coupe" and "Pink Cadillac."
 +
 +
"The car as a fetish of masculinity is probably over for certain age groups," McGuckin said. "I don't think young men care as much about the car they drive as they use to."
 +
 +
That's partly because cars have morphed into computers on wheels that few people dare tinker with, she said. "You can't open the hood and get to know it the way you used to," she said.
 +
 +
Lifestyles are also changing. People are doing more of their shopping online. More people are taking public transit than ever before. And biking and walking to work and for recreation are on the rise.
 +
 +
Social networking online may also be substituting for some trips. A study by University of Michigan transportation researcher  found that the decline in teens and young adults with driver's licenses in the U.S. was mirrored in other wealthy countries with a high proportion of Internet users.
 +
 +
Demographic changes are also a factor. The peak driving years for most people are between ages 45 and 55 when they are the height of their careers and have more money to spend, said transportation analyst , author of "Commuting in America." Now, the last of the baby boomers ― the giant cohort born between 1946 and 1964 ― are moving out of their peak driving years.
 +
 +
"They are still the dominant players, and they are moving toward a quieter transportation lifestyle," he said.
 +
 +
There's also a driving gender gap. In a role reversal, there are now more women than men in the U.S. with driver's licenses. And the declines in miles driven over the past decade were more widespread among men than women, according to Pickrell and Pace. Driving by men has declined in every age group except those 65 or older, where it increased slightly. Among women, driving declined only among young adults and teenagers.
 +
 +
There are several economic factors that help explain the trends. Driving declines exactly mirror job losses among men during the recession,[http://www.cheapsalejerseys.com/ Wholesale NFL Jerseys women], when male-dominated industries like manufacturing and construction were especially hard hit, researchers said. But average automobile use has declined recently even among those who have remained employed.
 +
 +
Economists say many Americans, especially teens and young adults, are finding that buying and owning a car stretches their financial resources. The average price of a new car is $31,000, according to the industry-aligned  in Ann Arbor, Mich.
 +
 +
"We're not selling to everyone. We're selling to upper-middle class to upper class," said , the center's chief economist. The rest of the public,[http://www.wikileakdes.org/%E5%88%A9%E7%94%A8%E8%80%85:Augnomhbqj#Miami_Marlins_starter_Nathan_Eovaldi_and_the_potential_of_-p Miami Marlins starter Nathan Eovaldi and the potential of -p], he said, buys used cars or takes the bus.
 +
 +
Then there's the cost of insurance, maintenance and parking. The price of gas has gone up dramatically over the past decade.
 +
 +
The share of younger workers who can find jobs is at an especially low ebb, while the cost of a college education ― and with it student loans ― is soaring. Many schools have stopped offering free driver's education to students. Owning a car is increasingly beyond the reach of many young drivers, researchers said.
 +
 +
Research by the  found that 18- to 20-year-olds were three times more likely to have a driver's license if they lived in a household with an annual income above $100,000 than if they lived in a household with an income below $20,000.
 +
 +
"I don't think it's a change in people's preferences. I think it's all economics," McAlinden said. "It might last if the economics stay the same. But if they improve, I think people will come back to driving more. ... Give a person a good job 25 miles away and they'll be at the dealership the next morning."
 +
 +
The decline in driving has important public policy implications. Among the potential benefits are less pollution, less dependence on foreign oil, reduced greenhouse gas emissions and fewer fatalities and injuries. But less driving also means less federal and state gas tax revenues, further reducing funds already in short supply for both highway and transit improvements. On the other hand, less driving may also mean less traffic congestion, although the impact on congestion may vary regionally.
 +
 +
Phineas Baxandall, senior analyst for the liberal U.S. Public Interest Research Group, says driving declines mean transportation dollars could be put to other uses.
 +
 +
"You just don't want to spend money you don't have for highways you don't need," he said.

 +
 +
Johnson and Paulina have been dating since January, which may seem like a quick jump to a lifelong union, but Johnson said the two have known each other for much longer. "We were friends for a long time before we started dating," he said.
 +
 +
While Wayne Gretzky is the most famous person in the equation,[http://www.cheapsalejerseys.com/ Wholesale NFL Jerseys women], and also the most accomplished athlete, Johnson is making quite the name for himself on the PGA Tour. At 29 years old, Johnson has notched seven PGA Tour victories since turning pro in 2007. He has not won a major yet,[http://www.cheapsalejerseys.com/nfl-jerseys-c-598 Hot Sale 2013 Latest NFL Jerseys], but came close in 2011 at The Open Championship, finishing second. This year Johnson tied for 13th place in the Masters.
 +
 +
Paulina Gretzky is an up-and-coming singer and model. Her song Collecting Dust was featured on MTV's Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County. She also made her modeling debut in 2005 in Flare, and has since gained notoriety for having one of the finest bikini bodies on the internet.

== The Riddler role in Batman film coveted by Justin Timberlake ==
 +
 +
<html>NEW YORK, Aug. 30 (UPI) -- U.S. actor and singer  said in a New York radio interview he would love to play the iconic baddie the Riddler to 's Batman.
 +
 +
Timberlake made the comments on the "Jim & Kim Morning Show" Tuesday.
 +
 +
"I ain't playin' Robin. I have no aspiration to ever be a superhero in a movie,[http://www.cheapsalejerseys.com/ Wholesale NFL Jerseys Pro Shop],[http://www.innerpedia.org/he/index.php?title=%D7%9E%D7%A9%D7%AA%D7%9E%D7%A9:Ajelboyxwd#The_Old_NHL.2C_Penn_State_Hockey.2C_and_Your_FGSB_Mailbag The Old NHL, Penn State Hockey, and Your FGSB Mailbag]," Timberlake said.
 +
 +
"Now, villain! I'll tell you the villain I want to play more than anything because I grew up loving Batman, funny enough, is the Riddler,[http://www.cheapsalejerseys.com/ Cheap Nike NFL jerseys Supplier]," he said. "The Riddler was like a sociopath. He was proper crazy. So if I'm gonna play crazy, I wanna play proper crazy. ... I'm ready. The Riddler. Give me a call!"
 +
 +
The role of The Riddler was last played on the big screen by  in 1995's "Batman Forever."
 +
 +
Affleck was announced last week as the latest actor to play Batman in a movie. "Batman vs. Superman" is due in theaters in 2015. There has been no indication the Riddler will be part of the story.</html>

== Russian GDP Discrepancies ==
 +
 +
<html>People love to snark on Chinese economic data as being hopelessly manipulated and unreliable, though for the most part those concerns are overblown. Chinese numbers tend to be directionally correct, even if they may be imprecise.
 +
 +
However, if you're looking for suspect data, check out the situation in Russia.
 +
 +
Now Russia is going through the same economic turmoil as its fellow BRICs (and more broadly, all emerging markets). Russia's massive growth before and right after the global economic crisis allowed the country to ignore structural issues that are now proving to be problematic.
 +
 +
But economists are alarmed at the unreliability of the data.
 +
 +
On Aug. 22, Nomura strategists Olgay Buyukkayali and Dmitri Petrov kicked off a multi-volume report on Russia's weakening economy by noting how poor the official data quality is.
 +
 +
They wrote:
 +
 +
The errors puzzle in the breakdown
 +
 +
Russian growth contains some puzzles. The first is in the expenditures contribution. Q1 growth was 1.6% y-o-y, and statistical discrepancy contributed up to 1.8% on the upside. At this stage the official breakdown of Q2 GDP contributions is not yet available. However, this is not an issue as last quarter s Rosstat GDP data asked more questions than it answered. If one adds up the contributions of the expenditure components to Q1 GDP,[http://bbs.popwan.com/home.php?mod=space&uid=895328 ], the resulting figure of 0.6% is noticeably lower than 1.6% headline growth. For statistical reasons, the discrepancy is not unusual, but in this particular case it seems that Rosstat cannot figure out where the growth is coming from.
 +
 +
First,[http://www.cheapsalejerseys.com/dallas-cowboys-c-598_641 Cheap Dallas Cowboys Jerseys on sale], the statistical discrepancy is at its historically highest level. Second, despite overall stagnation, household consumption accelerated from 5.8% in Q4 to 6.1% in Q1, although this time with weaker retail sales growth, which intuitively as well as statistically is quite unusual. This creates uncertainty around the&nbsp;official composition of Q1 growth which will hopefully be revised when the Q2 breakdown is released. This could lead to the Q1 and Q2 consumption picture being reassessed (in our view,[http://www.cheapsalejerseys.com/nfl-jerseys-c-598 Hot Sale 2013 Latest NFL Jerseys], lower).

 +
Here's the chart showing a massive statistical discrepancy in Q1.

== Got Giant African Land Snails- Release The Hounds! ==
 +
 +
<html>Credit Sammy Mack / WLRN Will sniff snails for treats: Bear,[http://www.cheapsalejerseys.com/dallas-cowboys-c-598_641 Cheap Dallas Cowboys Jerseys on sale], a three-year-old black lab, is being trained to follow the scent of giant African land snails.
 +
In the ongoing assault on invasive giant African land snails,[http://doblajemexicano.com.mx/sitio/index.php?title=Usuario:Avmfyjpbsd#Ghgt_Spy_School_Pop_Up_Event Ghgt Spy School Pop Up Event], Florida is ready to release the hounds.
 +
Literally.
 +
The state will be adding snail-sniffing dogs to its team of 50 full-time snail hunters.
 +
 +
At a press conference in Douglas Park on Thursday, state and local officials updated a dozen or so reporters on the state of the snail invasion. So far, the human snail hunters have killed more than 128,000 of the pests.
 +
Sightings of the snails are down, but Florida isn’t claiming victory yet. The last time Florida had a giant African land snail problem was in the 1960's. That intervention netted 17,000 dead snails and took nine years.
 +
    LISTEN: Giant African Land Snails? Release The Hounds!
 +
Enter snail-sniffing detector dogs like Bear, a three-year-old black lab who joined officials at the podium.

As state agriculture commissioner Adam Putnam pointed out, a “dog will pick up specimens that perhaps the human eye missed.”

 +
 +
<html>There are positive and negative signs in this case. On the one hand,[http://www.newbroncosjerseys.net/denver-broncos-jersey-wes-welker-jersey-shop-1_7 Wes Welker Jersey], Flynn's fastball was effective enough to get plenty of swings and misses when hitters swung, as an 18.2 percent mark would be acceptable for a relatively flat fastball with that kind of velocity. The bad news is that all of the well-hit balls allowed by Flynn came on those very pitches, as only two other pitches were hit for base hits and only three other pitches total were put in play. The Cubs were able to put Flynn's fastball into play, and a few times that fastball was hit hard.
 +
 +
As for his breaking pitches,[http://www.newbroncosjerseys.net/denver-broncos-jersey-chris-kuper-jersey-shop-1_13 Chris Kuper Jersey], it looked as though they were manageable. He was unable to place his sliders in the strike zone for called strikes, but he made up for it in part by getting whiffs on the swings the Cubs offered. The slider still needs to be good enough to get the occasional seeing strike, as the pitch is not yet touted as unhittable and would be at its most effective versus lefties. Only one right-hander missed a slider,[http://wiki.mikrotik.net.pl/wiki/U%C5%BCytkownik:Ajnpxuirhm#World_aid_workers_in_Syria_remain_committed.2C_despite_threat World aid workers in Syria remain committed, despite threat], and most watched them dip well below the zone.
 +
 +
The curveball and changeup are going to be important offerings for Flynn if he is to continue in a starting role. Hitters were not swinging at the pitch, but he was able to sneak some of them past Cubs righties for strikes. None of those 12 pitches were put into play either, which is a good thing. However, we had too little a sample to determine which of those two offerings may be better.
 +
 +
Early Conclusions
 +
It is obviously too early to make strong conclusions about Flynn, but it is obvious he has areas for work. He needs to find ways to better utilize either his tertiary offerings or his slider versus righties, as the pitch was not effective in that respect. His fastball was the most sampled pitch, and there are definite questions about its ability to maintain velocity. The tertiary pitches may hold some promise, though which one is too hard to tell.

Flynn will get at least three more chances to start with the Marlins replacing Jose Fernandez in the rotation soon, so the Fish and their fans will get a month to evaluate the merits of Brian Flynn. He may still answer some of our questions of today.</html>

<html>Two local artists will present an exhibit for the months of September and October at Gallery on Main in Cold Spring.

Sister Sharon Waldoch has been painting since the early ?90s; always fascinated with artwork, she began working with a mentor and took brush to paper.
 +
For many years, Waldoch worked under artist Betty Brown. She?s focused on a variety of subject matter, including minimalist landscapes and flowers. Most of her work, she said, has a somewhat abstract feel to it.
 +
Recently, Waldoch began painting on birch, but she specializes in watercolor on paper.
 +
?It surprises you,? she said. ?If you?re working on wet paper and you put the colors on, they?ll go in a variety of directions, and what you had in your mind changes into some other shape or colorful rendition of what you thought you were going to paint.?
 +
For the 10-piece exhibit, Waldoch used a variety of techniques to add texture to her work, placing gauze and plastic wrap on the wet images to give them a mottled effect.
 +
In the same exhibit,[http://www.newbroncosjerseys.net/denver-broncos-jersey-chris-kuper-jersey-shop-1_13 Chris Kuper Jersey], Mary Ann Dietman will display her works. Also a watercolor artist, Dietman focuses on creating scenes ? a lighthouse, a winter landscape, a vintage barn and blooming sunflowers.
 +
At 87,[http://www.newbroncosjerseys.net/denver-broncos-jersey-von-miller-jersey-shop-1_6 Von Miller Jersey], she?s been painting nearly 20 years, starting shortly before her husband died. Though she?s taken a few informal art classes,[http://5124340.de.strato-hosting.eu/tsgwiki/index.php?title=Benutzer:Acgjbpabwa#2_local_artists.2C_1_gallery 2 local artists, 1 gallery], she said she prescribes to the idea that artists should do whatever they feel works for them.
 +
?There are no set rules,? she said.
 +
The works of Waldoch and Dietman will be on display at the gallery at 527 Main St. in Cold Spring.</html>
