Karl Rove told Arnold Schwarzenegger in 2003 that he would not succeed in recalling California Gov. Gray Davis, instead pushing Condoleezza Rice to run against the Democrat in 2006 , according to excerpts of Schwarzenegger's new book "Total Recall" obtained by The Associated Press.
Schwarzenegger, was visiting the White House when Rove, President George W. Bush's political analyst, introduced him to Rice, then the White House National Security Adviser, as his choice for the next California governor.
"How could Rove have been so wrong?" said Schwarzenegger according to his book.
Rice, who has not sought public office, does not recall that conversation with Rove ever taking place, her chief of staff told ABC News.
"Dr. Rice has no recollection of any conversation on this subject. She has stated many times in the past that she has no desire to run for public office and those sentiments have still not changed," said Georgia Godfrey, Rice's chief of staff.
Rove could not be reached immediately for comment when ABC News reached out to his staff.
Schwarzenegger won the recall election in 2003 and went on to serve a second term after being re-elected in 2006. His political career took a severe hit when it was announced in 2007 that he and his wife Maria Shriver were separating and that he had fathered a child with the family's housekeeper years earlier.
He also confirmed more details to the AP, admitting that he had a "hot affair" with actress Brigitte Nielsen after he and Shriver were living together, though before they were married.
In experts released from a "60 Minutes" interview, Schwarzenegger calls the decision to cheat on his wife "the stupidest thing" that he had ever done to his wife.
According to the AP, Shriver almost killed her husband's political ambitions but was told by her mother to back off because women "always support the men when they want to do something." Shriver supposedly loosened her stance after that conversation and Schwarzenegger reversed his decision not to run now with his wife's blessing.

LEBANON, Pa. (AP) ? Retired Pennsylvania pastor Arthur "A.B." Schirmer was a serial philanderer, preying on women in his church who were having trouble in their own marriages, court documents say.
Yet adultery might have been the least of his sins.
Charged two years ago in the death of his second wife, Schirmer now stands accused of killing his first wife, too, after a grand jury concluded her injuries weren't consistent with a fall down the stairs, Lebanon County prosecutors announced Friday. He intends to plead innocent, and his children say they support him.
Schirmer, 64, has long claimed he was out for a run on April 23, 1999, when he returned home to find Jewel Schirmer's body in a pool of blood at the bottom of the basement steps. Although she had suffered a fractured skull as well as injuries to her face, body, arms and legs, the coroner made no determination as to whether her death was an accident or a homicide, and the case was closed.
That decision never sat well with her brother.
Jonathan Behney told police two days after her sister's death that "it was his opinion that her head was smashed in by someone," a police affidavit said. "He added that Arthur had been cheating on his sister for some time and has had several extramarital affairs with other women."
Police and prosecutors decided to take another look at Jewel Schirmer's death after her husband of 31 years came under investigation in the 2008 death of his second wife, Betty Jean, in the Pocono Mountains. Prosecutors in that case say Schirmer killed Betty Jean Schirmer, then staged a car accident to cover it up. He faces trial in January.
On Friday, Behney welcomed the decision to charge Schirmer in his 50-year-old sister's death.
"I'd like the truth to come out, not only for my family, but for Betty Jean's family, and for us to get closure," said Behney, joining Lebanon County District Attorney David Arnold at a news conference.
The district attorney said he did not believe the initial 1999 investigation was botched, though he added no probe is completely free of mistakes.
"Looking back today on what they knew at the time, I wouldn't feel comfortable criticizing the people who worked on it. I don't think it would be fair to them," he said. "We have different technologies available now that they didn't have then."
That technology would eventually help them break open the case.
Investigators hired a biomechanical engineering firm to recreate Jewel Schirmer's supposed fall down the stairs. The firm used a test dummy fitted with various instruments to collect data on the forces to which her tumbling body would have been subjected.
"We found the 'crash dummy' evidence to be particularly compelling, as it indicated to us that Jewel could not have suffered all of her injuries by accidentally falling down a flight of stairs," the grand jury wrote.
The grand jury cited medical testimony that revealed Schirmer likely used blunt objects to kill both his wives.
"We find it particularly disturbing and difficult to believe that both of A.B. Schirmer's wives could have suffered such horrific injuries by accident. To the contrary, we believe probable cause exists to believe that neither woman died from an accident," the report said.
Schirmer's attorney, James Swetz, said his client will be vindicated. Swetz's firm also released a statement from the three adult children of A.B. and Jewel Schirmer that said their father is innocent of all charges.
"We are deeply saddened and disappointed by the false accusations and allegations that have been waged against our father," the statement said. "He is a compassionate and gentle man who would never harm anyone."
At least one of Schirmer's former congregants, Kathy Siegrist, said she felt betrayed by the man who'd led her spiritual life for 20 years, so much so that she no longer attends a church.
Siegrist ? who called herself Jewel Schirmer's best friend ? said she had always considered A.B. Schirmer, who led Bethany United Methodist Church in Lebanon, to be gentle and kind. But there were hints of a darker side, flashes of anger that Siegrist said she never saw but that her then-husband used to talk about.
"The moment this happened, he told me he thinks A.B. killed her," Siegrist said.
Schirmer's former flock at Bethany was shocked and upset two years ago when he was first charged with homicide. Friday's charges come as less of a surprise, said the current pastor, the Rev. Nelson Alleman, who arrived at Bethany in 2010.
Alleman said he plans to speak briefly about it during worship Sunday and will tell the congregation: "We're a people of grace, we're a people of mercy, we're a people of forgiveness, and we also serve a God of justice and we are praying for justice, wherever that may be in this case."

LONDON (AP) ? Royal officials say they won't complain to Britain's press watchdog about naked pictures of Prince Harry partying in Las Vegas that appeared in a British tabloid.
The Sun newspaper ran the snapshots last month after they had appeared online and were reproduced around the world.
Harry's St. James's Palace office said Friday it had decided not to pursue a complaint with the Press Complaints Commission.
The palace said a complaint would be a distraction from Harry's deployment in Afghanistan, where he is serving as a helicopter pilot, and it "would not be prudent to pursue the matter further."
The decision stands in contrast to the lawsuit and criminal complaint the palace has filed in France against a magazine that ran topless pictures of Prince William's wife, Kate.

international womens day joe the plumber lra lra eric johnson eric johnson big east tournament
First of all, let me tell you of my experience in outsourcing work. I run a website, produce apps and I?m currently producing an indie movie. I only started outsourcing work about a year ago and in that year I have gained experience on the mostly ups, and sometimes downs of outsourcing. This article is subjective and is written off of the back of the experiences I?ve had personally in outsourcing work.
I won?t beat around the bush here. I was once like many other people producing projects and was thinking: ?I?ll never find anyone who would be willing to put the work in and enthusiasm that I do on specific tasks within a project.? Well, I was wrong, because that all changed ?when I started to give outsourcing a tentative try, to the present day where I am now outsourcing a lot of tasks. I?ve outsourced graphics, research, articles, videos and a whole host of other project components.
Here is a list of the positive aspects of outsourcing . . .
In response to my old way of thinking that no-one would be as energetic and enthusiastic in completing a task within a given project as I was, working on my personal project. Well, the business or self employed service provider is working on a project him or herself too . . . I?ll repeat that key phrase here. . .they are usually building a project themselves. They are trying to build the best service possible and want you to be happy, just as you probably are. You can outsource work to speed up your project and they in turn add you as a happy client if they do a great job. They then build up their business and cultivate word of mouth contacts, gain experience, build a portfolio and become trusted specialists to boot.
For example, let?s say you hire an up and coming web designer. He does a great job and you are happy with his work. In turn he gains profit and reinvests it into his business project. You also recommend this business or person to friends or contacts. Your website is also featured in a portfolio in that web designer?s array of completed works. Whose project benefits the most? The answer is that both of your projects are mutually benefited. It?s a win/win situation!
Let?s look at the outsourcing to a talented web designer scenario. Well, it?s real for me right now because I have teamed up with a good web designer ?- Octavian Rista at Laeta Designs to redesign an app promotion and landing page. Could I design this website on my own? Yes, with a considerable amount of time spent going around a time-consuming learning curve that would seriously eat up my time. Plus, an experienced web designer has had more experience than me and will come up with ideas that would take me ages to think up.
A specialist will be faster too. In fact, an experienced web designer will be up to 5 times faster than I would be with my limited experience in constructing websites regularly.
How often have you been asked at an interview this hackneyed corporate question: ?Are you a team player. Can you work as a team?? How many people answer ?No, I prefer working on my own without interference.? The answer is that no-one, unless they have poor social skills would answer in this way. Instead, we give the hackneyed reply . . . ?Yes, I work well as a team and on my own too.? Yawn. It is one of the dumbest questions I?ve ever been asked and it is so automated and impractical. Of course we can work well in a team if the team is a great team. If it?s a dysfunctional team it can be a nightmare!
Here?s the beauty of outsourcing . . . you can build a ?really cracking team right from the start. You can look for like-minded people and really create that corporate hackneyed phrase ?synergy? fly in the real world, with real results.
As well as your team being built, the person doing business with you, however large or small has added you to their team too! That?s real teamwork, not a corporate mismatch through automated-like interview selection, eventually patching a team together who are stabbing each other in the back to race up the corporate ladder, due to deliberate attempts by corporations to get ?team members? in competition with each other ? disguised with such hackneyed titles such as ?Employee of the month? or ?Tops seller? with even a grade added such as ?Level 1 achiever? etc, etc.
When you?ve found specialists and built a solid, real relationship with your partners you can really enjoy talking to like-minded people who have enthusiasm and their interests are following a close line parallel to your interests. You are helping each other in various ways and you make real friends. This is in stark contrast to the 1000 Facebook friends who would not even attend your own funeral, let alone notice that you?ve even kicked the bucket.
When you make a connection with someone like-minded and are working on a project together, which is mutually beneficial, it can be really fun. In fact, you can learn a lot from each other in the process.
That?s right, you can make real connections. Have you ever watched one of those sales guys or girls handing out business cards whilst drinking free coffee and cookies at a trade show or business convention. Revisit the convention next year and the chances are you will see the same sales reps doing the same exact thing. Yes, they drum up some business and link their employers with services. But you have an advantage, you are not linking up with people via some 3rd party employer. You are linking up 1 to 1. In fact, a smarter approach, instead of handing business cards out at events would be to ask yourself ?How can I help this person? And how can we help each other?? If a workable answer comes forth, approach them personally, as this is better than handing out 100 business cards, with %99 percent of the business cards being thrown in the bin.
I have never printed out business cards and never intend to either. In my view it is better to buy a beer for someone you can actually help and write down your email address or Facebook URL on a napkin whilst having a laugh and give it to them personally. First of all, if they feel the same way they will contact you for sure. If they have any doubts they will not. You will also have a genuine personal relationship with them and they know you as a person, which is a lot stronger than being just a ?contact?.
You may raise the question . . . yes, but they are not real friends as you both mutually need something. Well, this concept falls short in a number of areas. If you give your phone number to a hot girl/guy, is it because you don?t want anything? No. Your are interested in a relationship with them if you find them attractive. Would you hand your phone number over to a girl/guy who doesn?t keep up their personal hygiene? No. You are both looking for someone to share experiences with, to swap ideas, get a feel good factor going.
In any scenario you have to bring something to the table. Be it mutual friendship, a relationship or even an interest in mutually swapping points of view. That?s real life. Outside of your 9 to 5 job, that?s reality, you don?t waste time unless you can both grow from a friendship or relationship or even a business relationship. In fact, even if relationships start out to be a business project, if you make a connection and become a friend, well . . . that?s a win/win/win situation because you can help each other on projects, plus both enjoy a friendship and productive working relationship at the same time.
You may think . . . I?m new to this outsourcing thing, but are you? When you take your car in for a service, could you do it yourself? Of course you could change the oil, check the fluid levels and maybe even change the break pads and steam clean your engine if you put your mind to it. All you have to do is research how to do this, buy a steam cleaning machine, some brake pads, fluids and oil and off you go. But, what do you do ? you outsource the work as you don?t have time.
When you go to a local cafe and order a coffee and a sandwich. Part of the treat here is that you are paying for the privilege of relaxing. You don?t have to make the coffee or butter the sandwich, someone is doing it for you and their business is benefiting as a result. What about when you are on holiday and use the laundry service. Same thing again.
Disadvantages of outsourcing . . .
You?ll get the odd disappointing result of a service or a task. That?s life. Cross them off of your list and move on to finding the right team members.
People/services change. Sometimes, someone who you have been working with for a while may change, or take a different route in life. Never mind, remain friends and enjoy the ride while it lasts. You may even hook up again in an area where you are both working on in the future. People move on and you are not tied to each other, so give your team space and they will in turn give you space to take different tangents in life.
Delivery times: Sometimes there will be a late delivery as you are not in control of the process. I would outsource only work where there is not a stressful delivery date looming. If you want more control on delivery dates for a task within a project, either specify a delivery date way before you actually need it, or employ staff where you can control the process.
In Conclusion
So, in a nutshell, it may be worth looking at other areas of your work/business that could benefit from outsourcing. It is a circle that is ongoing . . . some people outsource to you, as in when I do app reviews on this site, and sometimes you will outsource to others.
Above all, it?s fun! Enjoy the ride.

California took?the fast lane to the future on Tuesday when Gov. Jerry Brown signed a law that lets self-driving cars onto public roads.
Brown rode to the signing ceremony at Google headquarters in the passenger seat of a vehicle that steered itself, a Prius modified by Google. Google co-founder Sergey Brin and State Sen. Alex Padilla, who sponsored the bill, were along for the ride. An engineer for the technology company, Chris Urmson, sat in the driver's seat, but the car drove itself.
"We're looking at science fiction becoming tomorrow's reality," Brown said just before signing the bill.
Google has been working on self-driving technology since 2010, including testing a fleet of self-driving cars along California roadways.
Google's driverless cars rely on video cameras, radar sensors, lasers and a database of information collected from manually driven cars to help navigation, according to the company.
The new law goes into effect next year and establishes safety and performance regulations for testing driverless cars, provided an operator is ready to take control if necessary.
However, it will likely take years before a fully self-driving autonomous vehicle hits the road, industry official say.
"I think the self driving car can really dramatically improve the quality of life," said Brin, who pointed to uses ranging from aiding the blind, ferrying revelers who drank too much, to simply making better use of commuting time.
He added that by driving closer together more safely than human-driven cars, self-driven cars might cut congestion.
But Google has no plans to build its own driverless cars.
"We have had great conversations with a variety of automakers," he said. "Anything we do is going to be in partnership with the industry."
The technology has been in the works since the 1950s, when General Motors showed off "dream cars" with features such as autopilot. Recently, carmakers have started incorporating into today's models some elements based on the innovations in those early vehicles, including adaptive cruise control or traffic-jam technologies that can slow the car automatically.
Carmakers developing autonomous technologies include BMW, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Mercedes, Nissan,?Toyota, Volkswagen and Volvo, as well as suppliers, technology companies and universities.
Chip company Intel created a $100 million fund in February to invest in future auto technology.
Nevada and Florida have already passed laws allowing self-driving cars.?

ScienceDaily (Sep. 25, 2012) ? Stunning 3-D images of 300-million-year-old insects have been revealed for the first time by University of Manchester researchers.
Writing in the journal PLOS ONE, the scientists have used a high resolution form of CT scanning to reconstruct two 305-million-year-old juvenile insects. Without the pioneering approach to imaging, these tiny insects -- which are three-dimensional holes in a rock -- would have been impossible to study.
By placing the fossils in a CT scanner, and taking over 3,000 X-rays from different angles, the scientists were able to create 2,000 slices showing the fossil in cross section.
From these slices the researchers created 3D digital reconstructions of the fossils. This process allows them to learn more about the lifestyle, biology and diet of the insects, one of which is similar to a modern day cockroach, and glimpse fascinating insights about how both were adapted for survival.
One of the insects reconstructed by the scientists is characterised by a large number of sharp spines. It is a new species and genus which does not exist today.
The other is an early predecessor of one of the great survivors of the insect world, the cockroach, and is one of the best preserved examples of this age ever seen by insect palaeontologists. Researchers suspect from its well preserved mouthparts that it survived by eating rotting litter from the forest floor.
Both are members of a group called the Polyneoptera -- which includes roaches, mantises, crickets, grasshoppers and earwigs. But analysing the exact relationships of the insects will be difficult for the researchers, led by Dr Russell Garwood of the University of Manchester's School of Materials, as insects have a habit of dramatically changing appearance as they develop.
Dr Garwood said: "The most dramatic change is seen in insects like butterflies, which change from a larva, to chrysalis, to adult. But relatively few people look to the fossils try and work out how such a life cycle may have evolved.
"We are hoping that work like this will allow us to better understand the biology and development of these early insects, and how major innovations may have come about.
"Around this time a number of early 'amphibians' were insectivores -- they lived by eating a lot of insects. The spiney creature was a sitting duck, as it couldn't fly, so the spines probably made it less palatable. It is bizarre -- as far as we're aware, quite unlike any members of the Polyneoptera alive today."
"The roach nymph is much like modern day cockroaches -- although it isn't a 'true' cockroach, as it may well predate the split between true cockroaches and their sister group, the mantises."
"This is very much a first step, and I'll be spending the next few years looking at other fossil insects to build on this work.
Professor Philip Withers, co-author on the paper, added: "I am very excited by our fossil work which is providing unique information in 3D."

I was working with a client earlier this month who is due to deliver a talk in a few weeks? time. Whether or not it will be a paid engagement has yet to be decided, at which point I suggested my client prepare to use it as a marketing opportunity, especially if no money would be changing hands!
As my client?s audience are ideal prospective clients, it makes sense for her to plan a way of attracting enquiries and also get contact details to follow up after the event. This can be done in several ways, perhaps by offering a free report, more detailed notes relating to the talk, or a one-to-one consultation.
If it turns out that the organizers will be paying a fee, then my client will obviously need to check if it?s OK to include a marketing message.
It took me far too long to realise that talks and workshops are also opportunities to create new products, so now I always make sure my clients don?t miss out on potential extra revenue by helping them.
The talk should be recorded, using audio or video, or both. Together with any slides, handouts and the script or presentation notes, these can be reused and transformed into a digital product to sell on the website.
Snippets from the individual components can also be used as marketing tools across the internet, by sharing on sites such as YouTube, SlideShare, as well as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn & Google+ and so on.
If you?re wishing you had thought of recording your work before today, it isn?t too late to put together a digital product from previous talks or presentations. It?s surprising how much material you probably already have that can be given a new lease of life and made into a new source of revenue for your business.
What opportunities do you use for further business? Please share in the comments below.

Los Angeles, California (PRWEB) June 27, 2012
Lifestyle Intervention creator and personal transformation, behavioral health expert, Michael Cartwright proudly announced today that the second annual Lifestyle Intervention Conference has named Bree Boyce as the host of the highly anticipated 2012 wellness event at the Bellagio in Las Vegas.
Michael Cartwright has assembled the best team of authorities in the world to lead the charge against Americas obsession with overconsumption and Bree Boyces addition to the lineup already has the industry abuzz.
Bree Boyce has taken the nation by storm since receiving the title of Miss South Carolina 2011; however, Bree is not your typical titleholder. Most beauty queens would not advertise that they once weighed 234 pounds and were struggling to breathe. At 17, she had reached her highest weight, 234 pounds, and started having health challenges. Her doctor warned her that her knees and joints couldn?t handle the excessive weight and she was placed on an inhaler to make it through the day. She was told that more serious problems were unavoidable if she didn?t slim down. After being on the diet roller coaster most of her teenage years, she was finally able to make a crucial shift in her mindset that allowed Bree to make a lifestyle change that she could commit to. The old fashioned formula of hard work, discipline and full commitment to a new lifestyle was Brees strategy for extraordinary success.
Bree has established herself as a premiere advocate on health and fitness, and childhood obesity, which is one of the most relevant health topics in our nations history and at the core of the Lifestyle Intervention Conference, which is why her involvement as host for this years event is in perfect alignment with Michael Cartwrights vision of healthy lifestyle choices for the planet. Bree knows the challenges of obesity on all levels and most importantly, what it takes to escape the deadly cycle.
Conference Co-Host and founder Michael Cartwright said, Bree Boyce embodies the very essence of the Lifestyle Intervention Conference and the vision our team has for creating the healthiest America possible. We are both humbled and thrilled to have Ms. Boyce as the host of our event, her story of hope and transformation is truly amazing; however, it is her commitment to inspiring change in kids and adults, that makes her involvement such a gift. Mr. Cartwright added, We are launching an attack on process addictions and overconsumption across the country and any team with Bree Boyce is a winning team.
The 2012 Lifestyle Intervention Conference unfolds at Las Vegas Bellagio from October 1st3rd and will offer extensive continuing education courses for Dietitians, Social Workers, Trainers, Psychologists and more. For more information visit http://www.lifestyleintervention.org or call 888.231.0911.

As soon as the iPhone 5 was announced with its tall screen, we all know what jokes were coming. But that doesn't mean they aren't funny ? and when you throw a certain Mars rover celebrity into the mix, it's a guaranteed hit.
This new parody video, by YouTube comedy channel Satire, imagines an iPhone taken to the limits of tallness ? with a few clever applications that seem like they might actually work. The panorama function certainly is a natural fit.
But in order add a little star power to their video (so to speak), they recruited?Bobak Ferdowsi, the mohawked JPL engineer who enjoyed internet stardom after the Curiosity Mars Rover's safe landing. He's pictured strumming his iPhone 5 like a guitar by a sign reading "Will work for peanuts" ? a reference to the lucky peanuts enjoyed by NASA engineers at critical mission moments.
It gives?the already-enjoyable video a little bit of an internet-insider feeling. Watch the parody above if you haven't already.

Steam baths have been in existence for decades. It was the Greeks who initially found out and utilized the power of steam. According to them, steam can cure many illnesses without introducing any international chemicals into the entire body unlike medicine. Contemporary research also signifies that our respiratory system gains greatly from vapor. It clears in the sinuses and reduces any problems associated with breathing.
Additionally, water also opens up your pores. This is great for the skin as it can inhale and release contaminants that may have accumulated over time. Likewise, 1 becomes relaxed any time enjoying a home steam sauna because the tension from the muscles is produced. Aside from the tension, lean muscle pain is also lessened and healed on time.
Before, people employed to visit public bathing pools, spas or fitness center just to enjoy this. These days, one can purchase a water shower and bring the idea home with him for his overall family to join.
The majority of people argue that it is high-priced and not economical to do this. Unknown to them, there are lots of benefits to having an individual shower. The first one is the fact that there is lesser hitting the ground with germs if you have a private shower. Public baths are open to many and you never know which kind of diseases the previous users may have had. Even though these baths usually are regularly cleansed, there may be still no peace of mind that it is a hundred percent bacterias free. At home, addititionally there is no assurance that it?ll be perfectly clean up but it is a lot safer because you know that are using the shower and can monitor its typical cleaning.
Another reason the reason one should purchase a personal shower is for the full privacy. When you are on public baths, you generally share with other people. In spas and gyms, your time is limited due to the fact someone else will be using it. If you are easily bothered by these things, you?ll do better with a private steam shower. In fact, it would add more force on your part if you were made to rush your treatment.
Lastly, it is far more economical to own a baby shower when there are many people in your family. Considering that schools and gyms cost per person, it could cost you a lot simply to let your entire loved ones enjoy steam times. If there is one in your house, all of you can you need to turns enjoying this.
Steam showers cost a lot if you look at its selling price.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Freddie Freeman hit a three-run homer to back Mike Minor and the Atlanta Braves roughed up Roy Halladay to move closer to clinching a postseason berth with an 8-2 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Saturday.
The win coupled with Milwaukee's 10-4 loss to Washington reduced Atlanta's magic number for securing a playoff spot to three. The Braves were up 8 1/2 games through Sept. 5 last year, but went 9-18 down the stretch and were overtaken by St. Louis on the final day of the season.
The Phillies fell four games behind the Cardinals for the NL's second wild-card spot with only 10 games remaining. The five-time defending NL East champions had won four in a row and 12 of 15 to get in the race.
Ryan Howard became the second-fastest player to reach 300 homers, but Halladay (10-8) picked the wrong time to have the second-shortest outing in his 376 career starts.
The two-time Cy Young Award winner lasted just 1 2-3 innings, allowing seven runs and five hits. Halladay's shortest start was on Sept. 10, 2006, for Toronto against the Los Angeles Angels. He recorded just two outs and left after getting hit on the elbow by a line drive off Garret Anderson's bat.
Minor (10-10) gave up two runs and two hits in six innings to win his fourth straight decision.
The Braves remained 5 1/2 games behind the first-place Nationals, making it likely they'll have to settle for a wild-card berth. Considering last season's collapse, securing any playoff spot is quite the accomplishment. It would have been the biggest September meltdown in baseball history except that Boston blew a nine-game lead during the same month.
Howard connected for the fourth straight game, hitting a towering shot off the brick wall in straightaway center in the fourth. He reached No. 300 in his 1,093rd at-bat. Hall of Famer Ralph Kiner hit his 300th homer in his 1,087th at-bat.
Halladay, who missed nearly two months with a strained lat, didn't look right from the start. He walked Michael Bourn to lead off the game, but picked him off. Martin Prado followed with a single and Chipper Jones hit a two-out single.
Freeman then ripped an 0-2 pitch off a billboard on the facing of the second deck in right field. Halladay slammed the resin bag to the ground while Freeman circled the bases.
Halladay has been awful in first innings this year, posting a 5.63 ERA in 24 games. He's allowed 15 runs and 31 hits, including three homers.
It didn't get any better in the second.
Halladay walked two batters, including Prado to load the bases with two outs. Jason Heyward fell behind 1-2 in the count before lining a 78 mph curveball into the right-field corner to clear the bases and make it 6-0.
That ended Halladay's day.
Jones greeted Jeremy Horst with an RBI double for a 7-0 lead.
Darin Ruf, who hit 38 homers in Double-A to break Howard's record for single-season homers at Reading, drove in his first career run on a sacrifice fly in the third.
NOTES: Jones' single in the first moved him ahead of Lou Gehrig for 58th on the career hits list with 2,722. He's one hit away from tying Roberto Alomar for fifth place among switch hitters. ... Freeman is 7 for 15 with three homers and nine RBIs off Halladay. ... Prado extended his NL lead to 37 multihit games. ... Bourn was 4 for 38 before a second-inning single. ... Phillies are 8-16 on Saturdays. ... Howard has three homers in 15 at-bats off Minor. ... Cliff Lee (6-7) faces Tim Hudson (15-6) in the series finale Sunday. Hudson is 9-9 vs. the Phillies, including 2-1 this year. Lee is 4-3 vs. Atlanta, 1-0 this season.
