U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Florida Pamela C. Marsh announced on Thursday she
will retire Sept. 4, after more than five years as the
leading federal prosecutor in Floridas 23 Panhandle counties. She is looking to spend more time
with her family.
Marsh, who was appointed in June 2010, was
the first woman to represent the Northern District of Florida.
It was a tremendous honor to
be appointed by President Barack
Obama as United States Attorney,
and it has been my great privilege
to lead this office for the last five
and a half years, she said in a
statement.
As U.S. Attorney, Marsh has fo- Marsh
cused on and prosecuted tax and
BP oil spill fraud, health care and
mortgage fraud, civil rights violations and drug
trafficking cases. She made a priority of outreach
programs in human trafficking, violent crime
prevention and police officer safety, creating and
chairing the Big Bend Coalition Against Human
Trafficking.

she said in a statement. Pams remarkable record of service reflects her immense talent as an advocate, her consummate professionalism as a leader
and her unwavering commitment to the
pursuit of justice.
Marsh has no immediate career
plans, according to the courts spokeswoman Amy Alexander.
This is the right time to move forward, Alexander said in an email, and
she has full confidence in the Northern
Districts leadership team and staff.
In her absence, first assistant U.S. attorney Christopher P. Canova will become acting U.S. Attorney for the Northern District.

Will Packer, a 1996 FAMU graduate, entrepreneur and filmmaker, is one of the executive
producers for Straight Outta Compton.
jured blacks in high-profile cases. Packer talked about the black men who have
died at the hands of policemen: Michael
Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, Eric Garner in New York and Freddie Gray in
Baltimore.
Its almost prophetic in a way because the film is now speaking to issues
that people want to talk about in current
society, he explained during a 20-minute telephone interview.
Thats incredible because this film
obviously took place in the early 90s, yet
especially when you talk about oppression, police brutality and the disenfranchisement of black youth, these themes
still resonate heavily today.
For this reason, the biopic has a deeper meaning for Packer compared to his
other work, which include seven No. 1
films: No Good Deed (2014), Think
Like A Man Too (2014), Ride Along
(2014), Think Like A Man (2012), Takers (2010), Obsessed (2008) and
Stomp the Yard (2007).
He used a football analogy to describe his role as executive producer in
Producer, Ice Cube, clockwise from top left, director/producer, F. Gary Gray, producer, Dr. Dre,
Corey Hawkins, as Dr. Dre, Jason Mitchell as Eazy-E, and OShea Jackson, Jr. as Ice Cube, on the
set of the film, Straight Outta Compton."

ORLANDO A University of
Central Florida discipline panel
said a fraternity that was suspended over a members videotaped offensive remarks about
rape did not violate university
policy.
Thursdays ruling still requires staff approval, and the
fraternity will remain suspended
until the final decision.
According to an incident report filed with the school, a woman filmed a video that captured a
member of the Sigma Nu fraternity chanting Rape! Rape!
and other offensive remarks on
June 9 on one of the fraternitys
off-campus apartments.
The Orlando Sentinel reported
the woman gave the video to a
UCF student, who gave it to the
school.
The panel said it found insufficient evidence to suggest
the fraternity was responsible
for the individuals comment. He
is no longer a student at UCF.

Hornwort is a free
floating plant and is purchased by the handful
and released to float
loosely in the pond. Tapegrass, purchased in
small pots and placed on
the bottom of the pond, is
a graceful underwater
flowing grass for sun or
shade. Both will multiply
and need to be thinned
periodically.
Deep water aquatic
plants have roots and
flexible stems which are
submerged, but leaves
and flowers must float
above the water. Good
examples are water lilies, which must have sun
in order to bloom well.
In addition to providing habitat, underwater
plants also absorb nutrients (from pond fish) that
are dissolved in water
thereby competing with
algae. Probably more
important in the control
of algae is the shade that
water lilies and other
plants provide. Good
advice is to plant your
pond with enough aquatic
plants to cover sixty to
eighty percent of the
ponds surface. However,
remember that algae is a
fact of life for a water
gardener. It cannot be
totally eliminated, but
can be controlled
through creating a bal-
Blue-footed boobies

strange bird
names, even
biologists sometimes
need a little convincing
about etymology.
The best family vacation I ever had was in the
Galapagos Islands.
Located
600 miles
off the
western
coast of
Ecuador,
these
Budd Titlow islands
are
TLH blogger
among
the
worlds most famous
ecological wonders. It
was here that Charles
Darwin studied many
birds especially Galapagos finches in developing his science-shattering studies that led to his
theories of natural selection and species evolution. The Galapagos are
also famous as nature
preserves where birds
and other animals have
no fear of humans.
I had long heard this
reputation, but as a career wildlife photographer and biologist, I
was very skeptical that
wildlife would allow
humans to walk right up
to them without flying
away. Plus some of the
names of the birds just
sounded ridiculous. Bluefooted boobies please,
who ever heard of such a
thing? They cant possibly be real!
The first island we
visited, Espaola, provided me with all the proof I
needed. As we glided
breathlessly along the
trail accompanied by our
naturalist guide, we had
to carefully plan each
step to avoid crushing an
egg, nest, or even an
entire bird. We walked
right through the middle
of huge rookeries full of
nesting masked, redfooted, and yes, there
they were in all their
cerulean splendor
blue-footed boobies by
the thousands!
OK, so exactly what,
you may ask, is all this
blue-footed nonsense
anyway? As you might
guess, it has to do with
attracting the ladies. The
males with the bluest
feet are the ones that are
the most successful at
catching nutritious fresh
fish. In fact, when boobies are kept in captivity
and fed already dead or
frozen fish, the color of
their feet starts to fade
within two days. Thus the
combination of the
males fabulously bright
blue feet signaling
hey, Im the best provider and some nifty
prancing, dancing, and
stamping quickly has the
females falling for the
showiest males, and the
nesting games soon begin.
The blue-foots also use
their fabulous feet in the
chick-rearing process,
using them to cover the
nestlings for extra
anced ecosystem.
Your pond should also
contain marginal plants
that inhabit shallow water or the edges of a water garden. They provide
vertical contrast and
cover for birds, aquatic
insects and other small
creatures. It is important
to position marginals in
the depth of water that
best suits each individual
plant. Most grow quickly;
you may need to control
growth by isolating them
in planting beds or in
pots.
Some good examples
are lemon bacopa, lizards tail, duck potato or
arrowhead, pickerelweed, rush, Howies
sedge, cardinal flower
and blue flag iris. Lemon
bacopa is a low growing,
mat-forming perennial
found on saturated soil or
shallowly inundated. It

Spanish explorers
called the blue-foots
bobo, meaning stupid,
because they appeared
clumsy on land. But
when we got back to our
tour boat and watched
their amazing aerial
artistry, the word awesome not stupid
came to mind. A large
feeding flock of bluefoots repeatedly soared
up to more than 50 feet
above the water. When
they spotted fish below,
they turned into sleek
avian guided missiles,
folding their wings, sticking their necks and heads
straight out, extending
their feet behind them,
and zooming down in
extreme power dives.
The effect was like
watching hundreds of
miniature torpedoes
exploding below the waters surface all at once.

She suggests creating
a family launch pad in
a common area. You
might place a file box on
a shelf and fill it with
color-coded folders (one
for each childs paperwork), or tack plastic
pouches to a wall, each
labeled with a childs
name. Donna Smallin
Kuper, founder of Unclutter.com, uses Post-It
Wall Pockets for this
purpose.
Add hooks beneath the
pouches or shelf for jackets and lunch boxes, and
place labeled bins on the
floor beneath each hook.
Have kids drop backpacks in their bin, along
with other items that go
with them to school. Bins
and baskets are helpful
for kids, says Smallin
Kuper, because tossing
shoes or unfolded clothing in them is much simpler and more likely to
happen than arranging
shoes in a row, or folding
clothes.

Yates has created a family command center
using two old window

added a row of hooks.
It hasnt helped me

least it keeps us from

Elston Edward
(Steve) Roady
Professor Elston E.
Roady, 95, left this earthly life on August 16,
2015, after a brief illness.
He was preceded in death
by his first wife Barbara
Louise Elder Roady in
2008. He is survived by
his current wife, Priscilla
Thayer Jones; his devoted children, Beth Lines
(Earl) of Tallahassee,
Steve Roady (Celia) of
Washington, DC, and
Chris Roady (Linda) of
Tallahassee; his beloved
grandchildren, Valerie
Sands (Chris) of Tallahassee, Matthew Lines
(Mirela) of Miami, Michael Lines (Rachael)
of Connecticut, Laura Capito (Charles) of
Maryland, Peter Roady
of New York City, Jennifer
Roady-Law-son
(Rowdy), Katherine Boland ( Jamie) and Chris
Roady, Jr., of Tallahassee;
his adored great-grandchildren, Ethan and
Meghan Sands, Catalina, Angelina and Nicoleta Lines, Max and Lily

Zane Lawson, and Everett , Eva and Eliza Boland; and his much-admired
step-daughters
Hilda Dawson (Harry)
of North Carolina and
Sue Conte Sherman
(Gary) and Phyllis Hytnen (Eric) of Tallahassee.
Professor Roady was
born on April 9, 1920 in
the little town of Kane,
Illinois, (population 473)
to Thomas and Leila
Roady, both teachers.
From his earliest days,
he wanted to follow in
their footsteps. He and
his brother Golman and
sister Elizabeth led an
idyllic small-town life,
fishing in Macoupin
Creek, squirrel hunting
in the woods surrounding the town, reveling
in Boy Scout activities,
taking years of piano lessons and participating in
track and field, basketball, debate and drama
in high school. Receiving on graduation one
of two academic scholarships awarded to the top
student in each Illinois
county, he went on to
Illinois State [Normal]
University, a teachers
college. Active in many
activities, it was in a play
that he received his nickname; he played a paperboy named Steve, and
this name followed him
all his life. He graduated
from Illinois State [Normal] University in 1942
just after Pearl Harbor.
Steves first act upon
graduation was to enlist
as a private in the Army.
Because of his academic
record, he was selected to
train in a newly-developed top-secret military

Karen E. Lloyd
Well, they always said that I had to have the last
word so if your reading this I have passed from this
world. I was born Karen Elizabeth Zacharias (later to
be Markus) on July 10th, 1946 in Biloxi, Mississippi. My parents Roy and
Ernestine Markus raised my brother Jimmy, sister Becky, and I on Lake
Talquin in Tallahassee where they instilled my Christian faith. I graduated
from Leon High School and moved to
Crestview, Fl. Over my lifetime I wore
many hats (so to speak). To name a few
Court Reporter, Troy State University student (where
I was just shy 12 hours of a 4 year degree) and most
importantly Civil Service on EAFB where I retired
after 28 years. I loved with all my heart and was lucky
to have two great loves in my life. Tommy Adams with
whom we had a daughter named Melanie Jane Adams (Hale). I wanted to name her Scarlett after Gone
With The Wind but everyone thought that the boring
co-stars name was better. Later in my life I re-married
to Dale Lloyd who proceeded me in death in 2005. I
loved to talk and never met a stranger my daddy said
so how lucky was I that I talked almost everyday to
my sisters Becky Markus Walker (Hahira, Ga), Linda Zacharias Schonewitz (Biloxi, Miss.) and cousin Patricia Wagner Alley (Tallahassee) my whole life
until the end. In my dying wishs I clearly stated for
my daughter to write my obit and to pretend that I
was a good mother but she knew that was a joke because she held my heart and I held her hand. I was
there to welcome my grandchildren Ashton BeauxHunter Hale, Daniele Nicole Hale and later Heather
Brooklyn Hale (all of Crestview, Fl) into this world.
There was nothing I wouldnt do for them and just as I
thought I could not be a prouder Mom or Mimi I became a Great Mimi of Payne Gabriel Hale, Brantley
Hunter Hale and Sailor Pierce Morey. With that and
some very special nieces and nephews I found my life
complete. The last decade of my life I had the privilege of moving back home with my mom in Tally for
7 years and also the privilege to be holding her hand
when she passed away. I moved back to be with my
kids and 2 years later thats when it happened. August
15th, 2015 (I tried to tell them lol)! Remember me
when you see a Cardinal or a vine ripe tomato (well
any food for that matter), or a yard-sale. Dont grieve
for me too much, but maybe a little, after all I did die!
I loved you all. Funeral arrangements will be at Beggs
Funeral Home in Tallahassee with a viewing Saturday
night, August 22nd from 5-7. Lying in wait Sunday
the 23rd from 12-2 and a church service at 2:00 followed by internment at Woodville Cemetery. I hope
to see you there.

Apalachicola Bay
Captain Russ Knapp at Journeys on St.
George Island (info@sgislandjourneys.com
(850) 927 3259) said things picked up this week.
"Captain Paul Polous has been finding nice redfish in the creek mouths of East Bay. Live or
fresh-killed shrimp on the bottom have been
doing the trick. Flounder have been in the (Bob
Sikes) Cut and around structure in the bay."
Knapp said there have been "lots of small trout
behind the east end of St. George Island. Offshore, Captain Clint Taylor says live bottom and
live bait is the plan. All types of snapper and
grouper are looking for a meal. Really nice cobia
are showing up, so don't forget your flat line."
Apalachee Bay
Otto Hough at Myhometownfishing.com
(otto@myhometownfishing.com) said: "The
New Moon weekend was kind to many angers
in spite of the aggravating southeast winds that
seemingly blew all weekend. From east of the
Aucilla to Carrabelle, the reds were roaming
and feeding on the falling tides this past weekend and week. Good reports (came in) of quality
fish being taken at first light and late evening as
the tides were falling. Topwater was doing the
trick, both early and late in the skinny water.
The gold Aqua Dream spoon was a hot commodity up into the mid-morning hour. Tides for
our coming weekend," said Hough, "will be
high right around sunrise, falling towards midday. Even though we will be between moons in
the first quarter, the early morning tide once it
gets moving out ought to give up a pretty fair
bite on topwater plugs like the Skitterwalk, One
Knocker and Super Spook. The Bone pattern has
been the hot color with the light cloud cover
we've been experiencing each day. Same should
be the case over the weekend given the weather forecast for isolated to scattered showers, but
no washout.
"Last week," said Hough, "the stickbaits
(gold Redfin and Bomber Long A) really drew
the attention of the reds. Again, no reason not
to expect similar results. The constant string of
on and off rain over Apalachee Bay has served
to lower the water temps ever so slightly. The
trout bite has been frisky, but it is certainly picking up. Long about the first of September we
ought to see a marked increase in the trout
strikes." Said Hough: "Without question, there
are 'go fast' fish roaming the St. Marks Refuge
buoy line and well inside too. All are devouring
the schools of baitfish wandering the east and
west flats. Any lure with a shine will gain quick
attention from the Spanish (mackerel), jack crevalle and bluefish that have been slamming the
baitfish. For some catching fun, just do a little
'run & gun' action to the jittery pods and start
tossing those lures at 'em. Wire leaders (preferably black or brown) are definitely advisable.
Outside of the 9-mile-limit, the gags are liking
the live baits, especially the pinfish, over live
structure. Slow trolling (about 4.5 to 4.8 knots) a
Mann's Stretch 30 or a MirrOlure 111MR has
been producing a goodly number of good gags
over live bottom as well."
Captain Dave Lear in Tallahassee said strong
east winds and thunderstorms kept the lid on
fishing this past week. He said just a few anglers
caught trout and redfish on topwater Skitterwalks.
Keaton Beach
Captain Pat McGriff of One More Cast Guide
Service (www.onemorecast.net (850) 584-9145)
said: "Trout fishing was fair when we had a
breeze, and tough when we didn't this past
week, as evidenced by the seven trout Billy Pillow and I caught Thursday last. Friday, I had David and Drew Parkman of Columbus, Ga. out
and we landed eight trout and two black sea
bass while fishing with live pinfish under Back
Bay Thunder floats. Our fish came from 5.5-6.5
feet of water and the water temps ran from 8488 in the afternoon. "Saturday we dropped to
five trout and two black sea bass as the wind
dropped to less than 5 knots most of the day.
The trout simply didn't want to move in that
warm of water with no breeze. The catfish wore
us out despite where we might move and try.
Look for trout to act pretty much the same this
weekend," said McGriff, "although the tides
are backwards, so you will have to fish a falling
tide with a.m. highs. Live pinfish is the ticket, as I
have yet to catch a fish in the last three weeks on
plastic."
Steinhatchee
Richard McDavid at Sea Hag Marina in Steinhatchee (352-498-3008) sent some great photos
of this past week's action. The most outstanding
fish was a 26.5-inch trout caught by Tyler Revels.
Other anglers caught scattered trout and redfish. SCUBA divers have been slaying grouper
and other bottom species too slow to swim
away. Scallopers continue to get limits without
much effort.
Freshwater
Lake Miccosukee
Eli Reeves at Reeves Fish Camp and Campgrounds on Lake Miccosukee, (850) 893-9940,
said high temperatures and low water have
combined to make fishing difficult, but not impossible. Those who have bothered to go out
have been doing well on flyers (fly bream). He
said for some reason they recently have been
biting best on live crickets rather than live
worms. Anglers also have been catching perch
(specks) and lots of catfish (on worms). Reeves
said as the water cools, panfish should begin
bedding and catches getting better.

| COLLEGE FOOTBALL |
Former Ohio State running back Maurice Clarett met with the Florida
State football team on
Wednesday night to share
his journey from being
one of college footballs
best players in the early
2000s to serving jail time
for miscues off the field.
Essentially, I was
what yall was: a national
champion, right? Clarett
said in a video of the meeting posted on ESPN.com.
So how do you go from
being Mr. Everything to
Mr. Nothing? How do you
go from being in the NFL
to basically in a jail cell?
Clarett played one season with the Buckeyes,
leading them to the 2002
BCS National Championship over Miami in the
2003 Fiesta Bowl. But his
career never got back on
track after his standout
season due to a number of
off-field issues.
Clarett, 31, said the advice he received after

sophomore Derrick Nnadi, and redshirt freshmen
Demarcus Christmas and
Arthur Williams have also
stood out at the defensive
tackle position in practice.
They hold the point
pretty well, and theyre

said.
Five-star freshman defensive end Josh Sweat
continues to earn praise
from his teammates and
coaches as he recovers
from major knee surgery.
The Seminoles are also
working without defensive ends Lorenzo Featherston and Chris Casher,
who both required arthroscopic knee procedures.
Hes a tremendous

Sweat. The things he can
do rushing off the edge is
crazy. He has tremendous
speed coming off that

skills are going to be really, really needed.

moved inside to play tackle much like Mario Edwards Jr. did for the Seminoles last season.
Smith credited defensive ends coach Brad
Lawing for his work helping the defensive lineman
improve their technique.
With the linemen working
to limit space inside the
pocket for quarterbacks,
the other players on defense can zone in on their
assignments with more
emphasis as well.
When you affect the
quarterback, it changes
the defense, Smith said.
It affects everybody.
When you take the quarterback out of his comfort
zone, it just throws the offense off. It throws their
rhythm off. They dont
have the time they need in
routes and things like
that. So it just gives everybody a chance to make
more plays.
Head coach Jimbo
Fisher has said his team
will play in nickel formation at least 70 percent of
the time to combat with
opposing offenses wishing to move the ball in the
passing game.

FSU ILLUSTRATION
Florida State University Director of Athletics Stan Wilcox announced Thursday the
contract extension of
womens
basketball
head coach Sue Semrau
through the 2019-2020
season.
Sues 18 seasons of
sustained success at
Florida State place her
in an exclusive group
nationally among her
peers, Wilcox said.
Our student-athletes
and the Tallahassee
community have been
the direct beneficiary of
her long-standing commitment to excellence.
What started as an
enormous task in rebuilding and resurrecting FSUs Womens
Hoops program in 1997
has turned out to be a
great success for Semrau. The winningest
head coach in program
history has recorded
348 victories that include two NCAA Elite
Eight
appearances
(2010,
2015),
three
NCAA Sweet 16 appearances (2007, 2010, 2015)
and 11 NCAA Tournament appearances.
It is an honor to continue as the head womens basketball coach at
Florida State University
for the foreseeable future, Semrau said.
FSU has a culture of
excellence, both academically and athletically, that I am proud to
be a part of. Thank you
to President Thrasher
and our Director of Athletics Stan Wilcox for
having faith in me and
allowing my time at this
great university to continue into the next decade.
Semrau is coming off
of a record breaking
2014-2015 season. She
was recognized for her
hard work and that of
her team when she was
named National Coach
of the Year by three different
organizations
(Associated
Press,
Womens
Basketball
Coaches
Association
and ESPNW). The Seminoles, comprised in
large part of players
with one or less years of
experience in a Florida
State uniform, set program records for total
wins in a season (32),
ACC wins (14), wins versus Top 25 opponents (6)
and regular-season victories (27). FSU went undefeated at home in the
Donald L. Tucker Center
(16-0), appeared in the
ACC Tournament Championship Finals and
reached the NCAA Elite
Eight.
Throughout her tenure at FSU, Semrau and
her teams have compiled an impressive list
of
accolades
and
achievements. A Seattle, Wash., native, Semrau has coached 22 AllACC players and has totaled 40 All-ACC selections. Fifteen of her
players have signed professional contracts to
play basketball in the
WNBA and overseas.
Coach Semrau has
done an outstanding job
of coaching her players
both on and off the
court, said FSU President John Thrasher.
"Her focus on academic
success and teaching
her teams to be leaders
on campus and in the
larger community by
contributing their time
and effort to help others
reflects so well on her
program and the entire
university.

ORLANDO Every
preseason its the same
ritual.
UCF coach George
OLeary sits down at his
desk, takes out a piece of
paper, looks down his
teams schedule and
writes down a prediction
for the upcoming year.
I was one off last
year, OLeary said of his
teams 9-4 finish a year
ago to claim their second
straight American Athletic Conference title. He
said the Connecticut
game threw him off.
Howd he do the year
before that, when the
Knights won a schoolrecord 12 games and the
Fiesta Bowl?
I was on the money,
OLeary said. Ill do it
again right around that
weekend before school
(begins). Ill put a number in the drawer and my
secretary sees me. I seal
it. I dont change it.
Entering his 12th season in Orlando, OLeary
has clearly come a long
way from his 0-11 first
season in 2004. With a
15-1 mark in their first
two seasons in the AAC,
the Knights enter 2015
again as one of the league
favorites.
They will be down 14
starters from a year ago,
which includes the loss
of their entire secondary
and top four receivers.
But in a new era that provides even less margin
for error for non-Power 5
conference teams, OLe-

@LemireJoe
Special for USA TODAY Sports
Its a common ritual for a batter to step out of the box and look
for signs, but young Pittsburgh
Pirates right fielder Gregory Polanco is just as apt to be looking
into the dugout as at his thirdbase coach. Thats because he often finds in-bat counsel from
catcher Francisco Cervelli.
Between pitches, always. If he
is not on base, hes in the dugout
watching, Polanco said. Hes always supporting me: Stay short,
dont take your eye off the ball.
Cervelli deflects his teammates gratitude toward the encouraging and collaborative
example set by manager Clint
Hurdle and the aid his older
teammates showed when he arrived in the big leagues with the
New York Yankees. This type of
mentoring is a less obvious contribution than Cervellis more visible role as a stellar defender and
on-base machine.
The Pirates offseason trade of
reliever Justin Wilson for Cervelli
and their bargain signing of leftside infielder and former Korean
Baseball Organization MVP Jung
Ho Kang for four seasons at only
a $16 million commitment rank
as some of the savviest, yet least
heralded, offseason transactions.
Cervelli and Kang rank behind
only Andrew McCutchen on the
Pirates leaderboard for on-base
percentage and on-base-plusslugging percentage (OPS) in addition to their above-average defense, helping the club to the
majors third-best record.
Thursday, they began a key
four-game series at PNC Park
against the San Francisco Giants,
a rematch of the 2014 wild-card
game that launched San Franciscos World Series championship
run. The Pirates entered Thursday with a seven-game cushion
for a National League wild-card
spot, with hopes of adding to it by
winning this weekends series;
three of the four games will be
nationally televised, including
Sunday nights on ESPN.
A QUICK TRANSITION
Kang
(pronounced
Ghang)
crossed Pittsburghs radar a few
years ago and, as rumblings of his
Francisco Cervelli, left, and Jung Ho Kang took much different routes to the Pirates, but both
have made major impacts as Pittsburghs seeks its third consecutive playoff berth.
interest in joining the majors intensified, so too did the Pirates
interest. General manager Neal
Huntington said several scouts
took looks. The organization
watched a ton of video, and club
analysts constructed a statistical
model to project how Kangs
KBO performance might translate to Major League Baseball.
The Pirates could assume he
wouldnt bat .356 with 40 home
runs, as he did in 2014 for the
Nexen Heroes, just as he likely
wouldnt win a Gold Glove at
shortstop. But they knew he
would contribute.
We said from the outset that
we believe hes a regular player at
the big-league level, Huntington
said. We just werent sure where,
and we werent sure when.
His agency, Octagon Baseball,
is a leader in the representation
of international players. Its managing director, Alan Nero, said the
majority of foreign-born players
who fail do so because of the
transition, not the talent.
To help, Octagons Jae Han
spent seven weeks with Kang at
the beginning of the season, and
Nero was complimentary of the
efforts made by Huntington and
his staff, which included learning
a few Korean words and customs,
as well as not immediately thrusting him into the everyday lineup.

For years the fast-paced tech industry showed little respect for the plodding car industry. Google and Palo Altobased Tesla, with its high-tech electric
sedans, convinced many to give the industry another look. The average car
now processes more than 4,200 signals
from the engine and transmission to
the backup camera to the radio using
40 electronic control units, according to
Boston Consulting Group. Those units
can contain up to 100 million lines of
computer code, more than in a fighter
jet. The average number of control units
has climbed from 30 in 2007; some luxury cars have as many as 100.

Tough standards
But cocky tech companies have had
to adapt to the tough standards of the auto industry, which requires technology
to work perfectly, for years, in all kinds
of conditions. Maciuca spends much of
his time educating software and app developers about the industrys needs.
Silicon Valley goes toward this model of a minimum viable product. Its easy
to throw things out there and try them
and see if they work, Maciuca says.

private life is a complete

Thats where a lot of the

possibly balance his

The series is executive produced by Seth

Kim Sung-jin, 14, broadcasts himself eating delivery Chinese food in his room at home near
Seoul, South Korea. Every evening, he gorges on food as he chats before a live camera with

monthly visitors to
Afreeca TV are teens or
in their 20s. That means
nearly 40 percent of the
12.5 million South Koreans ages 10 to 30 watch a
show on Afreeca TV at
least once a month.
Young generations
believe that TV is naturally something like
Afreeca TV where they
can interact with broadcasters, said Ahn, the
company executive. He
believes TV in the long
run will be completely
replaced by such apps.
Cho Young-min, a
12-year-old who has
watched an online game
show on Afreeca TV
since he was a thirdgrader, aspires to have
his own show on Afreeca
TV, not on the TV in the
living room.
Ahn Won-jun, a 17year-old high school
student, said he prefers
to eat dinner in his room
to watch Kims Meok
Bang, rather than dining
with his parents.
Hardcore Afreeca TV
viewers are drawn to
hosts like Kim because
they can interact with
them, unlike more distant TV stars. Fans say
they feel their blood
rush and heart flutter
when a host reacts to
their comments, singling
them out in the stream
of hundreds of live chat
messages.
I was so moved,
said Lee Yeon-joo, a
15-year-old recalling the
moment when a 26-yearold man read her message in the middle of his
live show. You cannot
really approach celebrities.
Afreeca TV users can
get broadcasters attention by giving them star
balloons, which cost
them about 10 cents
apiece. The show hosts
keep most of that money,
though Afreeca TV takes
a cut of up to 40 percent.

Today in history
Today is Friday, August 21,
the 233th day of 2015.
There are 132 days left in
the year.
On this date in:
1831: Nat Turner led a
violent slave rebellion in
Virginia resulting in the
deaths of at least 55 white
people. (He was later
executed.)
1858: The first of seven
debates between Illinois
senatorial contenders
Abraham Lincoln and
Stephen Douglas took
place.
1944: The United States,
Britain, the Soviet Union
and China opened talks at
Dumbarton Oaks in Washington that helped pave
the way for establishment
Horoscopes
Aries (March 21-April 19).
Beyond good and evil, there
is love. The decisions made
from love can seem complicated not as cut and
dried as the moral code
written in books. The heart
deciphers its own moral
code.
Taurus (April 20-May 20).
You will follow your intellect to whatever conclusion it leads you instead of
accepting the answer you
are being fed by another.
This is the way of great
thinkers and truth seekers.
Gemini (May 21-June 21).
Youre working from the
gut today and will get more
information in the blink of
an eye than you would in a
lengthy dissertation.
Cancer (June 22-July 22).
No relationship is entirely
wine and roses, but youll
experience more than your
fair share of movie-worthy
moments in the coming
weeks so many that you
may even dare to plan some
work and/or travel with a
loved one now.

You hold: S A K J 9 7
H A 7 5 2 D 9 4 C A 6. You
open one spade, and your
partner responds 1NT.
North in todays deal
raised to 2NT. Do you
agree with that action?
ANSWER: Norths bid
suggested 16 or 17 points
but was an error nonetheless. The correct bid
was two hearts to continue the search for a
trump suit. South might
have tried 2NT next, and
North could raise. If
Souths pattern were
1-4-4-4, the actual bidding
would have missed a
heart fit.
