Orioles stay hot, keep heat on Yanks

Associated Press Sports

TORONTO (AP) - Joe Saunders began pondering perfection just one inning into his latest start.

Saunders and three relievers combined on a three-hitter and the charging Baltimore Orioles blanked Toronto 4-0 Monday, cutting their AL East deficit to one game.

"(Saunders) was the difference today," Baltimore manager Buck Showalter said.

The Orioles, who took two of three at Yankee Stadium over the weekend, moved even closer to New York. The Yankees lost 4-3 at Tampa Bay.

J.J. Hardy drove in two runs as the Orioles won for the eighth time in 10 games. The one-game gap marks the closest anyone has been to the Yankees since mid-June.

Acquired recently from Arizona, Saunders (1-1) retired the first 17 Blue Jays batters before hanging a changeup to nine-hole hitter Adeiny Hechavarria, who lined a two-out single to center in the sixth.

Saunders acknowledged he'd long been dreaming of the possibility of a perfect game or no-hitter.

"You think about it," he said, smiling. "I thought about it after the first. I was like `Ooh, nice. I didn't give up a hit in the first."'

Baltimore, which had lost four in a row at Toronto, collected its eighth shutout of the season. The Orioles have won 20 of 28 overall.

Saunders bounced back nicely from his Baltimore debut, when he allowed six runs in 5 1-3 innings in a loss to the White Sox.

"When I got traded over here they had a great thing going," Saunders said. "You just want to come over here and contribute as much as you can. You don't want to mess it up and get blown up a lot."

After Hechavarria's hit, Rajai Davis followed with a walk, but Saunders struck out Colby Rasmus to end the inning. Saunders allowed three hits in 6 1-3 innings. He walked two and struck out two.

"Today he settled in a little bit more," catcher Matt Wieters said. "He was definitely in control the whole game and was able to mix in different off-speed pitches."

Luis Ayala replaced Saunders after the Blue Jays loaded the bases with one out in the seventh. Ayala escaped by fanning rookie Moises Sierra and getting Jeff Mathis to fly out.

Pedro Strop worked the eighth and Jim Johnson finished for Baltimore, who were playing their third straight day game and riding an emotional wave after their big weekend series in the Bronx.

"I'm as proud of them today as I have been all year," Showalter said of his team. "That's a challenge."

Adam Jones had two hits and Nick Markakis reached three times for the Orioles.

The Orioles opened the scoring in the second when Manny Machado led off with a fly down the line in right. Fighting the sun and making a long run to the ball, Sierra couldn't come up with the sliding catch and was charged with a three-base error.

"Obviously Moises had a difficult time with the sun in right," Blue Jays manager John Farrell said.

Machado scored when Nate McLouth followed with a sacrifice bunt.

Baltimore tacked on two more in the fifth on back-to-back RBI doubles by Markakis and Hardy. Blue Jays left-hander J.A. Happ avoided further damage by striking out Wieters, Mark Reynolds and Machado to strand runners at second and third.

"They were able to manufacture a couple of runs but he made a number of key pitches to prevent a big inning," Farrell said.

Hardy added an RBI single in the eighth.

Happ (3-2) allowed three runs, two earned, and six hits in five-plus innings. He walked two and struck out nine.

Brad Lincoln came on after McLouth doubled off the wall to begin the sixth. A walk, a sacrifice and an intentional walk loaded the bases for Hardy, but he grounded into an inning-ending double play.

The Blue Jays, who were blanked for the seventh time this season, have lost three straight and 11 of 15.

NOTES: Toronto recalled LHP Brett Cecil and activated RHP Jason Frasor (forearm) off the 15-day DL. ... The Orioles selected LHP Zach Phillips from Triple-A Norfolk and designated RHP Jason Berken for assignment. Baltimore also recalled RHP Tommy Hunter from Double-A Bowie. ... Blue Jays C J.P. Arencibia (right hand) has begun a rehab assignment at Class-A Dunedin and could rejoin the team by the end of the week, manager John Farrell said. ... The Orioles will recall RHP Zach Britton before Tuesday's game, allowing him to start against Toronto.

The business of small business news | Talking Biz News

Every night the major news programs run through their daily business report, citing the ups and downs of the Dow Jones, the S&P 500 and the NASDAQ. It?s portrayed as a definitive picture of how the economy is doing and has great influence on economic and investing behavior for representing so few companies.

But the Dow Jones only measures the value of 30 stocks, and those 30 are the biggest companies in the U.S., including Coca-Cola, Home Depot and IBM.

While the impact of the Dow is largely psychological, what is quite real is the amount of media coverage each of these 30 companies gets for every new product, service, earnings report or personnel announcement. Each is covered in detail by CNBC, the AP, the Wall Street Journal, CNN, etc. Their releases go out on PR Newswire or BusinessWire and are picked up by hundreds of web sites in the U.S. and around the world.

Some companies ? Coca-Cola, Home Depot, P&G ? even have reporters dedicated to covering their news and topics related to their industry.

But what happens when a mid-sized company issues news? They see a fraction of the result, of course. Most likely they see coverage only in their hometown media or in trade publications. It?s frustrating for companies that are employing thousands and tracking hundreds of millions in sales and revenues. It?s even harder for very small companies trying to build their businesses.

So why are smaller companies having so much trouble getting coverage? There are a number of factors at play here, but it really comes down to a lack of resources at both the media and businesses.

Let?s look at the key areas: Lack of communication resources and skills, fewer business reporters in newsrooms, smaller business sections and reporters doing double or triple duty.

Lack of Communication Resources and Skills

Many smaller businesses don?t have the resources they need to operate a truly effective public relations function. The marketing or advertising director will often have that role thrust upon them. In some companies you might even have one person who?s responsible for marketing, special events, advertising, fundraising, internal communications and investor relations.

Adding on the role of generating media coverage might seem a logical extension of the job the marketing person is doing, but it?s actually a very different skill set. It requires a different type of writing ability, one that?s more persuasive and more concise than annual reports or internal communications.

It also requires a deep understanding how the media works. What makes that piece of news from your company a story? What needs to be in your press release to encourage coverage?

Many companies are deeply invested in their own products or services. Politely said, that gives them a sometimes unrealistic perspective of the news value of many stories coming out of their headquarters. There needs to be a professional on board who can take a step back and ask ?is this really newsworthy??

For the most part (never say never), media don?t do feature stories on small businesses. Of course, there are specific magazines, such as Inc. and Entrepreneur, that cover those areas, so businesses can look for that type of outlet.

Reporters won?t write about something that?s been done 10 times before and they?re less likely to be interested in something that affects a very small, limited group.

Fewer Business Reporters in Newsrooms, Smaller Business Sections

Ten or 15 years ago the media world was flush. Some cities still had two daily newspapers, and they were full of special sections, including food, travel, technology, style, books, jobs, real estate and even cars. Most of those sections, supported by heavy ad sales, are gone. In many cities the once-separate business section has been folded into other sections. Syndicated services are taking the place of once-local writing.

The recession decimated media companies. Staffs were slashed, with cuts to copy desks, editors, designers and reporters. So today there are fewer pages available for news, combined with fewer reporting staff to cover news from smaller companies.

Reporters Doing Double or Triple Duty

But it?s not just fewer reporters. Ten years ago all a reporter needed to do was write one story a day for their daily paper. Today, with online and social media channels, that same reporter will update her story every hour, plus maintain a blog, a Facebook page and a Twitter feed. They may also be turning their print stories into audio podcasts, shooting video for the paper?s web site and maybe even taking their own photos.

Television reporters are now called ?multimedia journalists,? meaning they?re not just reporters anymore, but photographers and editors. Technology advances mean reporters can edit in the field a lot easier and it?s not uncommon to see photos and even stand-ups sent in by iPhone from a story site.

On the magazine side, many publications are outsourcing some or all of their writing to contract writers. Often the only editorial person a magazine masthead will note is the editor, who will assign stories to writers scattered across the country. That makes the dynamic challenging. It?s hard for a company to build those all-important relationships with the writers a business needs to know, and the writers are often nowhere near potential sources.

Across every media channel, reporters tell me how hard it has become for them to find time to cultivate sources. It?s very hard to do the kind of background research that allows them to write deep, meaningful stories. The result is often much longer hours for reporters dedicated to providing quality work.

Businesses looking for news coverage should consider the following. Heck, business journalists need to be aware of these strategies as well so that they can understand how they?re being pitched

? Better Research: Take more time researching not just the publications you?re pitching but the specific reporter as well. It?s vital for you to know the kinds of stories they write, how often, when their stories appear, and where in the publication they?re placed. Watch and understand which reporters cover earnings releases.

Which reporters come up with their own stories and which have stories assigned to them? Who are the breaking news writers (they rarely get to choose their own stories) and which are ?enterprise? writers who might spend a week or more on a story?

? Relationship Building: Building relationships with media is a process, one that may take months or years to reach the results you want. Look for every way to meet and engage with the reporters you want know. That includes going to workshops, seminars or local press club meetings.

? Better Press Materials and Pitches: In general, keep the information brief and concise. Think like a reporter and give them the key points of your story in 50 words or less. Everything beyond that is detail.

Email is an important tool for getting information out to reporters. Make your subject line short and persuasive. Imagine the report is reading your pitch on his iPhone and write with that in mind. Don?t include pages and pages of detail and don?t include attachments. Links to video, photos and additional details are excellent to add.

? Longer time frames: Don?t assume that you can give a reporter your release the day before the announcement and still get coverage. You may need to start talking with them days or weeks in advance.

A business should look at its media relations program as a year-long effort. Limited coverage of one event or announcement isn?t a failure if it builds a relationship with a reporter for a larger, deeper story down the road.

? Realistic Expectations: It?s probably not realistic to expect every bit of news from your company to result in a feature story. During the course of a year you?ll see an assortment of short news briefs, an executive quoted in a trend story, a photo with a caption the mentions your company or product and maybe one story that focuses just on you.

Auburn football: Jay Prosch's mother dies from brain cancer | Cancer ...

AUBURN, Ala. ? Amidst the Labor Day celebrations, the Auburn football family received somber news on Monday.

Iris Prosch, mother of fullback Jay Prosch, died Sunday morning after battling brain cancer since April 2011.

?As everybody has heard, unfortunately this morning Jay Prosch?s mother passed away,? Auburn coach Gene Chizik said. ?We just ask that everybody keeps him in their thoughts and prayers and it?s a very difficult situation as you would imagine. We?re trying to all be very respectful of the situation.?

Chizik said there are no details on funeral arrangements or Prosch?s availability for Saturday?s matchup against Mississippi State. Chizik said those details will be released by Tuesday.

Prosch, a Mobile native, transferred from Illinois in January to be closer to his ailing mother. Iris was diagnosed with glioblastoma multiforme, a grade-four brain cancer.

In January, Prosch spoke about transferring.

?She was just like, ?I wish you didn?t have to leave. I wish you were closer so you could come home more,?? Prosch said.

So that?s what he did.

?It has nothing to do with the school,? Prosch said. ?It?s really about the coaching change, and that sparked the idea that since there?s a coaching change, maybe I can be closer to my mom.?

Iris had been undergoing experimental treatment at Duke University last spring. She went through four months of radiation and chemotherapy treatments, along with two brain surgeries.

She then received treatment at The Mitchell Cancer Center in Mobile and checked back into Duke every two months.

Chizik spoke with Prosch on Monday morning.

?He?s at home,? Chizik said. ?He?s doing fine, as fine as you can be under the circumstances.?

Prosch?s teammates have been showing support via social media.

?Please pray for my brother Jay Prosch and his family,? tight end Philip Lutzenkirchen tweeted.

?Prayers for my dude Jay Prosch,? tweeted kicker Cody Parkey.

Prosch made his debut with the Tigers on Saturday against Clemson. Prosch cleared the way for 180 yards on the ground and recovered a fumble on Auburn?s final drive.

Prosch was All-American fullback for Illinois as well as a large contributor on special teams, winning the team?s special teams player of the year award in 2011.

The NCAA awarded Prosch a hardship waiver in June, making him immediately eligible to play for the Tigers.

Following Saturday?s 26-19 loss to Clemson, Prosch said how much he enjoyed his first game at Auburn.

?It was definitely a different feel than Illinois ? just the fans and the environment,? Prosch said. ?I really enjoyed it. It was awesome.?

Time management skills | In the economy, we are talking about b2b ...

You may think?Why improve my social skills, when most companies do 99% of communication by telephone, teleconferencing, video conferencing, E-mail, and in rare cases, post. To communication remains the most powerful human interaction, says Kathleen Begley, ed.D., author of face to face communication, that human connections in a technology-driven world. So wonderful, such as electronic devices, they can never fully replace the intimacy and immediacy of the people, who in the same room in the conversation and it works for millions of years.

It is unbelievable how dependent we are become as on electronic communication devices! E-Mail, text messages, PDAs, mobile phones, video conferences, blackberries, blueberries, raspberries and more? have taken place too many interpersonal difficulties and miscommunication the good old old fashioned, face to face communication chain in todays work.

In the economy, we talk about B2B (Business to Business) and B2C (Business to Consumer) methods. Im trying the trend (in a positive way!) Bock to emphasise the importance of personal communication. Listen to connections talk me lot about the P2P (people) and how important it is to get technology and face to face talk with friends, family, colleagues, customers, suppliers and the like. You might think this is a little dated, but I believe there is no substitute for the human, from very close and personal contact. John Naisbitt, in his mega decades ago 1960s bestsellers Megatrends: ten new directions transforming our lives, brought a new concept in the foreground, called High-tech, high touch. His idea was that when human beings of anonymous electronic communication became capable, she at the same time would need more close-up personal interaction. We are living in a society local coffee shop in droves on the or diner for coffee chats with friends or business partners is a testament to our need for human cohesion, especially if most coffee lovers can make a latte or cappuccino directly in their homes. Think of the fate that make coffee facilities to our need for personal contacts! The people connections?

We hear many children (and adults), who spend countless hours just playing video games. However, in 2003, the game manufacturing Association reported that family board game is booming sales (such as monopoly and Scrabble) and is growing at 20% per year. Skull has come out recently with a brand new line of Board Games for our little guys (age 3 ). The connections people start at an early age ? if you havent heard it, questions you me, you mean to tell story Papa Zitto!

Even if disaster strikes and the media bring these events in our home and in the workplace through TV, radio and Internet, we are looking for ways to share grief. I waited to visit zero in New York, when it opened to the public in December 2001 in line for nearly three hours with hundreds of other ground. Many people also left makeshift shrines in the area, to the victims of this tragedy to honor. The people connections?

We understand that technology can impersonal, but it quickly is! We know we need time for more people connections, but the reality of the hustle and bustle not leave us much time for this intimate form of communication. It is paradox communication? faster is not always better.

May the better question how can we the best of both worlds ? technology and face to face, people connections make?

As fashions are redesigned and come back with a variation on a style of days-way ? of, I think it is time for the redevelopment and revitalization of face to face (P2P) communication skills.

We need to get the balance right! Person-to-person (P2P) communication skills remain one of the most important success factors in the economy, even in the age of technology. There are many situations ? often those with conflict, hurt feelings, high priority or a large sum money ? that ask businessmen take you time and effort, in the same room get, to share information. A good simulation and cost effective method has video conferencing, if individuals in remote locations, but it is still no substitute for the good, old fashioned, personal communication.

Tom Peters, international well-known business guru, says without reservation that you should ever visit to your personal contacts. We believe in high-tech, high touch, Peters writes. No question, technology is the great. Sheila Hodge, author of global Smarts: the art of communication and deal make anywhere in the world, says: The modern office is full of lovers of gadgets ? computers and the Internet, uplinks and downlinks, video conferencing and online databases. Many people think the imagination chaotic job of connecting to the people treat technology should allow.

Jo-Ellan one, tells in her book, people read how young, technically oriented people tend to be mostly communicate in computer chat rooms. You want to become a better Communicator, a conscious effort to other people (person) make, she writes. Gary McClain and Deborah Romaine in her book that manage people book, put it this way? Consistent, daily personal communications promotes more than good feelings; It promotes also effective and cooperative cooperation.

One of the most critical areas of communication is getting directly in the business to one situations ? particularly with advice, constructive feedback and annual performance reviews, Chris Roebuck says in effective communication.

Start out by an honest view on your communication methods and your approach to the technology vs. (P2P)-to-face interaction. You are off more and less email meet financial reasons? Avoid contact with people mainly because mangelnder interpersonal skills? The next time you are tempted, send an E-mail, SMS or phone calls for routine purposes, stop! Go out of your comfort zone and instead send the E-mail, SMS or call to set up a personal, personally meet with the person behind the technology to! Why? Because it works!

Make connections people? A positive work environment is serious! TM

BlackBerry 10 L-Series all-touchscreen phone caught on camera

BlackBerry 10 LSeries alltouchscreen phone caught on camera

If you can't wait until next year to see the future for RIM, N4BB has obtained what it claims is a picture on the BlackBerry 10 L-Series, aka London. The screenshot shows a launcher pane full of app icons including BBM, Facebook, Maps and StoryMaker, which could be an iMovie-style video editor. Other leaks, including one from a video posted by BlackberryItalia.it (embedded after the break), indicate it could pack a removable 1800mAh LS1 battery and will be gunmetal colored. Of course, we don't know how far along the software is on this unit compared to the ones we had hands-on experience with, but if you're committed to sticking with the team from Waterloo then any news is likely welcome.

Update: CrackBerry has a more revealing version of the image now seen above, which surfaced in its forums and on Instagram.

[Thanks, John]

Horror possesses box office in quiet end to summer

This undated publicity photo released by Rocky Mountain Pictures shows a poster for the documentary film, "2016: Obama's America." The conservative film exploring the roots of President Barack Obama's political views surprised the film industry when it took in $6.5 million to land at No. 7 at the weekend box office ahead of three new releases: the Joseph Gordon Levitt action flick "Premium Rush," the Kristen Bell comedy "Hit and Run" and the Ashley Greene horror film "The Apparition." (AP Photo/Rocky Mountain Pictures)

A late-summer horror tale took possession of the weekend box office as Hollywood quietly wound down a busy season that turned out to be not so busy.

"The Possession" debuted as the No. 1 movie with $21.3 million over the four-day Labor Day weekend, according to studio estimates. The Lionsgate fright flick stars Kyra Sedgwick and Jeffrey Dean Morgan as parents of a girl possessed by a demon.

Opening in second-place with $13 million was the Weinstein Co. bootlegging drama "Lawless," with Shia LaBeouf and Guy Pearce in a story of moonshiners pursued by a corrupt lawman during Prohibition.

It was a typically slow Labor Day weekend, ending a summer that failed to live up to Hollywood's expectations.

Studio executives started the season with projections of record business, but revenues dropped 3 percent compared to summer 2011, while attendance was at its lowest in at least 20 years, according to box-office tracker Hollywood.com.

Labor Day weekend revenues totaled $134 million, down 3.4 percent from last year's, when "The Help" led with $19.9 million.

Hollywood.com analyst Paul Dergarabedian said overall domestic revenues for the summer season, from the first weekend in May through Labor Day, came in at $4.275 billion, down from a record $4.4 billion in summer 2011.

The attendance picture was even worse, factoring in this year's higher ticket prices. The number of movie tickets sold over summer was about 533 million, down 4 percent from 2011's and the lowest since Dergarabedian began compiling summer figures 20 years ago.

"We talk about summer being product driven, and it's all about the movies," Dergarabedian said. "While it started off on a really high note, as summer went on, it seemed like the moviegoers were less and less interested in the movies being released."

Back in May, when the superhero sensation "The Avengers" launched the season with a record $207.4 million weekend, Hollywood insiders predicted their best summer ever as a lineup of huge titles was set to hit theaters week after week.

While "The Avengers" and superhero cousins "The Dark Knight Rises" and "The Amazing Spider-Man" led the season and movies such as "Ted" and "Brave" topped the $200 million mark, many other movies fell flat. Big stars delivered big busts with Adam Sandler's "That's My Boy" and Johnny Depp's "Dark Shadows," and action tales such as "Battleship" and "Total Recall" also flopped.

There were some smaller surprise successes, including the anti-Barack Obama documentary "2016: Obama's America," which expanded into broader nationwide release and came in at No. 8 with $7.1 million. That raised its total to $20.3 million since the documentary opened in a handful of theaters in mid-July.

The weekend's other new wide release, the family flick "The Oogieloves in the Big Balloon Adventure," flopped with just $601,545, averaging a tiny $278 a screen in 2,160 theaters, one of the poorest openings in recent box office history. By comparison, "The Possession" averaged $7,564 in 2,816 cinemas.

Most scary movies draw their biggest crowd on opening day Friday as horror fans turn out for the debut, with business dropping on Saturday. "The Possession" bucked that pattern as the audience grew larger on Saturday then held up solidly through Sunday and Monday.

"Horror films normally don't do that," said Richie Fay, head of distribution for Lionsgate. "If you play to that audience and that audience is satisfied, they talk about it and they come back on Saturday or their friends come back with them on Saturday."

Warner Bros. just opened "The Dark Knight Rises" in China and Italy, lifting the Batman blockbuster back to the No. 1 spot internationally with $46.4 million and raising its overseas total to $575 million.

"The Dark Knight Rises" took in an additional $7.9 million domestically over Labor Day weekend to push its domestic haul to $433.2 million. The film joined 2008's "The Dark Knight" as a $1 billion worldwide hit, with its total now at a few million dollars more than its predecessor's.

Estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Hollywood.com. Where available, latest international numbers are also included. Final domestic figures will be released Monday.

1. "The Possession," $21.3 million ($3.5 million international).

2. "Lawless," $13 million.

3. "The Expendables 2," $11.2 million ($20 million international).

4. "The Bourne Legacy," $9.4 million ($12.6 million international).

5. "ParaNorman," $8.8 million ($3.1 million international).

6. "The Odd Life of Timothy Green," $8.5 million.

7. "The Dark Knight Rises," $7.9 million ($46.4 million international).

8. "2016: Obama's America," $7.1 million.

9. "The Campaign," $7 million.

10. "Hope Springs," $6 million.

Dying Cardinal: Church '200 years out of date'

>>> back now at 8:37. our nation's colleges are filled with students of every race, creed and color. in the book "fraternity" author diane brady reminds us things were different. craig melvin, good morning.

>> good morning to you, natalie. the book traces the story of a priest and his revolutionary recruitment of a stellar class of black men to a small new england college. a group that included several attorneys, a super bowl champ, pulitzer prize winner and supreme court justice . we sat down with father brooks for what turned out to be his last television interview. he died monday at the age of 88. in many ways this book turns out to be a testament to his life's work. father john brooks vividly remembered what many are saying about his idea to integrate the prestigious college of the holy cross .

>> i thought it was absolutely ridiculous at first. why are you bringing them in? they are not offering you anything. they are not going to help the school at all. they were reflective of the racial attitudes that were fairly consistent in the united states .

>> that we as a people will get to the promise land.

>> in 1968 , just months after dr. martin luther king , jr., was killed and riots erupted around the country, the 44-year-old dean of students hopped in his white pontiac gto and headed to america 's inner cities with full scholarships in hand. he was intent on fulfilling his mission at the nearly all white catholic university in wooster, massachusetts.

>> it was a moral obligation . a needy saw for african-american students who if they didn't get this opportunity could be badly deprived.

>> in detroit he found a star basketball player. in washington, d.c., a self-described studious mama's boy named ted wells . in new york city eddie jenkins, football standout who saw the cross as an opportunity and obligation.

>> there was a war going on and there was a war in the streets. we felt that it was time for us to stake our claim. we didn't just want to come in and get a degree and join middle class america , we wanted to basically build a new nation.

>> reporter: at first some of the young men were skeptical about brooks idea.

>> historically black colleges gave great education to our young people . great schools to go to. you don't have to go to this ivy league white school in boston.

>> reporter: they knew full well what was ahead of them.

>> there were a number that had no interest in getting to know us.

>> reporter: nonetheless they accepted scholarships and started working on gaining acceptance.

>> we did not want to be treated like minorities. we wanted to have an equal presence, a presence where we did not have to give up our identity.

>> they started by forming one of the country's first black student unions .

>> a group of brothers who wanted to be with each other, come together with a strategy of the bible.

>> reporter: they lobbied for more black students and professors with diverse curriculum and for solidarity's sake.

>> ted wells and myself, we were a few rooms past the bathroom.

>> they pushed for all black hall in the white dorms. many saw it as self-segregation. it also surprised father brooks .

>> i thought it was a stupid idea. the more i listened, it became clearer and clearer to me, they simply needed this kind of time together.

>> reporter: the men would get together weekly at black student union meetings.

>> holy cross has been good to me and for me.

>> reporter: supreme court justice clarence thomas also attended holy cross during that time.

>> it is i who owe the debt of eternal gratitude.

>> reporter: during bse, they would argue passionately about everything from race to history's most brilliant black intellectuals, philosophical differences that exist today.

>> the arguments we had at 18, we continue to have at 60. i see the world very differently than he sees the world. with that said, there's a bond between everybody who went to holy cross during that period and father brooks is a big part of that.

>> for many of the 20 men he recruited and the greater holy cross community brooks , who was there for life's marquis moments, the vatican trained priest served as president emeritus where women are 53% of the former all male student body and minority students are a quarter of the freshman class. father brooks continued to push for change into his 80s.

>> we should continually be searching for academically strong black students to come here and to engage in a strong curricul curriculum.

>> like that trailblazing class of 1972 . eddie jenkins went on to play for the undefeated miami dolphins . stan grayson became a wall street executive, former deputy mayor of new york city . ted wells is one of america 's most prominent trial lawyers.

>> we developed our sense of confidence and our sense of leadership. and the things we learned at holy cross really resulted in our being successful.

>> father brooks was teaching a seminar at holy cross as recently as this past school year. he will be buried next monday, of course, on the campus of holy cross where he spent so many decades working on behalf of the students. the men he recruited said they were sattened by his death but grateful for the impact he had and in their lives. natalie.

>> what a great honor for you to have the opportunity to probably get one of his last interviews.

>> such a remarkable man. what's just as remarkable is the strength of the bond that he managed to maintain with all those students for all these years.

>> such an impact on them. craig melvin, great story. thank

batholomew jungle: News and Society Blog-Economics: Is The US ...

This is a medical term used by hospital staff when a patient is beyond all hope of saving but is still alive, still clinging to the very last bit of life till it too is gone, and the patient slips quietly into death. They are no longer a part of this world and gone forever. Is this an accurate description of our economy right now in its present state of being. Has the real estate market hit bottom? How much longer can the federal reserve print money before our dollar is worth absolutely nothing? How much time do we have before our economy is severely effected by the reform of Petrodollar recycling, which would result in the ultimate collapse of the US dollar here in America and abroad. These are all questions investors want to know in today's uncertain economy.

According to The Wall Street Journal's, "Money Watch", a recent study has shown the housing market is slowly on the rise 7.5% over last year at this time. Interest rates have never been lower for financing single family housing. The only problem with this situation is that it really does not matter how low the interest rate is, if your worried about whether you will have a job from one day to the next. The result is that the average citizen is going to hold on to what ever money they have due to a lack of consumer confidence in an uncertain economy. People worried about jobs and the future don't spend money. They also don't spend money on consumer goods which further hurts our already stressed economy. What money they do spend on housing and consumer goods is getting even smaller due to shrinking value of our American dollar which has been quoted to be worth only 4 cents per dollar, thanks to the federal reserve banking system of America.

Every time, the federal reserve creates a need to print more money, it connects with the US Congress to make that happen. In the past, every dollar printed by the fed used to be backed by gold. This law was done away with in 1971. After that date, the federal reserve had a free reign to create money out of nothing and backed only by a promise to pay. The Fed will not account for what they do nor do they feel that they should. This what they believe as they control the cash flow of America's private citizens. Since they are a private company, and connected to the us congress, much information is withheld from the American public on their activities, intentions, and ownership of the federal reserve banking system. They are no more Federal than Federal Express. How is it that an independent company in the private sector has a hold on this country's finances without a transparent view of them by the American public and without accountability of any kind. They basically have a free reign to do what they want when they want it, which will bring this country down financially to its knees. This will not stop unless the federal reserve banking system is abolished, and our governing bodies are separated from the financial institutions of the private sector. In addition, corporations should not be allowed to contribute any monies to any political parties of any kind ever again.

Before the US dollar totally collapses, American citizens will only have to monitor of collapse of the "Petrodollar System, "which now is in the process of reforming negotiations with OPEC and other foreign nations. Their goal is to change the currency for buying oil from US dollars to Eros. First, one must understand the petrodollar system and how it works. For foreign countries to buy oil, they must first exchange their own currency for US dollars. That is what the US world leaders decided. Foreign countries in turn sell the US their products to get a higher rate of exchange for US dollars. All excess profits made by these countries are then recycled back into a US Federal Reserve Account. So as a result, the federal reserve is able to make major profits from the out going dollars to other countries and again when they recycle their excess profits back into private federal reserve accounts. This could also account for the secrecy of the owners of these accounts.

If OPEC and other foreign countries are successful in changing the currency for buying oil, the US dollar will no longer be needed. The Russian Securities Exchange recently opened direct trading between the Chinese currency, the Renminbi, and the Russian Ruble. Other smaller foreign nations are presently discussing switching to the Euro. At this point, two things will happen. The US will go to war(WWIII) to keep of oil and the mega profits they are making as a result of the petrodollar recycling process. They did it in Iraq when the Bush administration found out Saddam Hussein was in the process of changing the currency to gold for all Iraq's oil. The Bush administration put a stop to that by going to war to fight the so called war against terrorism, which was pure bullshit. They gave the same reasons for going to war with Afghanistan when they really wanted to secure the Caspian Oil Pipeline that extended through that country.

Every year the federal reserve must create debt in excess of the debt and interest of the previous year to keep the petrodollar system functioning. The results are clear. When debt is created, money is created. When debt is paid off, money is destroyed. There will never be enough to pay off the debt which leaves consumers stuck in a never ending rat race to keep up. So do not expect for things to get better. They will only get worse at this point and there is a reason for that. Its because the owners(1%) of this country want more for themselves and less for us (99%). So, their bottom line is their master and they do not give a dam about the American people, never have and never will. As long as the owners of this country have control of nation's money, they do not care who makes the laws.

Abolish The Federal Reserve Banking System of America. Our nation's leaders must push towards free energy and a sustainable way of life. If this sounds like the American dream,your right because you have to be asleep to believe it. If you are a firm believer that the US dollar will collapse,and it eventually will, call "Orange Blossom Note Services",at (512) 417-2933 and ask for Kenneth Kern. He can provide you with a fast reliable cash solution for any owner financed contract you want to sell. Why wait? Call now while there is still time.

'Grey's Anatomy' hunk gets hitched

Pascal Le Segretain / Getty Images

By Jefferson Reid, E! Online

He's not a hunky, heartbroken doctor but he plays one on TV. In real life, however, hunky actor Jesse Williams is anything but heartbroken as he married his longtime girlfriend Aryn Drake-Lee Saturday in Los Angeles.

"Jesse was beaming with joy throughout the entire ceremony," a guest at the wedding told People. "It was the perfect night with lots of smiling, laughing and emotion. You could feel the love they have for each other. They're madly in love!"

Jesse Williams hates musicals, gets Auto-Tuned on "Grey's Anatomy"

The 31 year-old-actor and his 32-year-old real estate broker bride have been together for five years. Which means she put Jackson Avery through medical school!

Should we add Jesse's wedding to the "Grey's" OMG Moments?

In reality however, they met pre-fame, while he was a schoolteacher in New York. Sweet!

Congrats to the happy couple.
