I have a slash 4x4 with the docking station and all of the telemetry stuff hooked up. The dashboard has been working perfectly until today. Now when I turn everything on I get the two green linked symbols and everything is registering for about 20 seconds and then it drops the connection to the unit and the two icons go red. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Replace the batteries in your Tx (see if this works). When the cells get weak it seems to not register on occasions even though it shows full power from them.
Another thing is close out the Traxxas Link App. If the batteries are still good. Hopefully this helps you.

I have iphone5. but May I connect to TQi with adapter(iphone)?
Hi, i am from the UK and needed some help, there is no one to contact from traxxas in the UK so thought i would try on here-
1. Firstly i am wanting to buy an XO1 in the next couple of weeks but wanted to know if the docking station will work with an iphone 6 plus or ipad mini?
2. Will the base clips at the bottom of the base that hold the device hold an iphone 6 plus or an ipad mini?
3. Which are the best batteries and chargers to start off with? im not going for 100mph straight away and would rather start off on 2x 2s lipos to get used to the car.
4. What upgrade/mods can be done on the car?
Ps i have seen a video online where the docking station has been modded to hold an ipad mini- has anyone else done this? And how?
The Iphone 6 is also wider so I don't suggest clamping it tight with the stock adapters - I don't.
As for batteries, I use the Traxxas 11.1v 5000mah batteries(came with car), Traxxas are really good batteries, I have bought more since for other rc's.
& as for mods - the steering needs to be modded - go here - http://traxxas.com/forums/showthread...4-My-XO-1-mods
Hi thanks for the reply could you confirm if you have IOS 8 on your iphone and does that work with the TQi? Traxxas said it is only compatible with IOS 7 but the main UK distributor says it is compatible, i dont know who to believe.
Hey thanks so much ive been asking everywhere and your the first person to confirm that you can use ios 8, i must have rang everywhere! Can you use all the features as normal eg the dashboard? Is it the new system that connects with bluetooth? And is it used with an xo1?
Hi guys
I have an xo1 with the TQi transmitter which runs the Apple dock, however, I cannot connect my android phone to this which meets the minimal software requirements (i.e. android version 4.4 or newer, mine is 5.0).
Does the above only apply to the Bluetooth version transmitter? If so, I may need to buy the Bluetooth transmitter...fyi, my iPad does connect to the dock with no issues.
In case you are wondering, I bought the adapter which is a female 30 pin Apple socket to male micro usb, as per below link:
Android is only supported by the Bluetooth version.
Alt-248 on the number pad = °
Will the new tsm rec n remote work
Sorry better question
So I already have a Bluetooth remote but it's non tsm model
So was wondering if I buy a tsm receiver will they work together ?
Yes, But into a wall
question : I have a iPhone 4 . what adapter do I need for the phone to my TQ1 ? ............. thanks .. steve
Can the telemetry ports on the RX be used to power on the Traxxa LED light kit? Or anything else other than telemetry?
new problem . can not get the receiver to recognize the transmitter . red lights is all I get . tried many way with no luck . any ideas appreciated ........... steve
got it running great . all things work .... except my iPhone will not read temp or rpm . need ideas .......... steve

In which stores can I find Minimuhuu?
Please email email@example.com
Which sheet fabric is best for me?
This is a tough question to answer as diferent fabrics have diferent qualities, and we each have individual preferences. Here's a brief guide to give you some idea of the unique attributes of each fabric:
100% Linen stonewashedWell-being and naturalness
Cotton Percale
A soft, crisp fabric that's great for warm sleepers as it feels cool against the skin. It's known to wrinkle a bit more than other fabrics, but those that love percale love that aspect of its personality.
Think of your favorite T-shirt—slightly stretchy, soft and easy to care for—that's Jersey. It's a knit fabric, which is why it is able to stretch and why it drapes so efortlessly. Jersey is easy to manufacture, so it's one of our lowest-priced fabrics.
How do I care for my Minimuhuu products?
Duvet Cover, Sheets
All of our organic linen products are machine washable. We recommend machine washing on the gentle or delicate cycle with like colors, with cold water and a natural, plant based laundry detergent. We do not recommend using whiteners, as bleaching agents may diminish the brilliance and depth of the colors; when needed, use only non-chlorine bleach. Line dry, or tumble dry low and remove promptly. Fabric softeners and dryer sheets reduce the absorbency of textiles and are not recommended.
Decorative Pillows
After removing the insert, hand or machine wash the cover in cold water on the gentle or delicate cycle. Hang dry. Not Iron.
I am interested in selling Minimuhuu products in my brick-and-mortar store. How do I arrange that? Please email us:

Wonder Festival is a bi-annual event for figurines and cosplay. It's one of the biggest of its kind, with D.I.Y. hobby figure-makers showing off their pieces as well as companies that specialize in turning resin into bookshelf sculptures.
Here's a taste of the figures on display, ranging from Nintendo DS love simulator Love Plus to horror title Silent Hill. There was much more plastic on display, featuring characters from Japanese manga and anime. Some of it is work safe. A lot of it isn't.
The winter Wonder Festival 2011 was held in Chiba's Makuhari Messe, home of the Tokyo Game Show.

As the week comes to a close, our eyes turn to the 2012 London Olympic Games. Although there are no athletes originally from North Dakota competing in the games, there are several college alumni to root for! Athletes include former North Dakota State University standout Amanda (Thieschafer) Smock and Dickinson State University's Ramon Miller, Derrick Atkins and Trevor Barry.
Smock, originally from Melrose, Minn., attended NDSU from 2001-2004 and was a three-time NCAA Division II national champion and 13-time All-American. Smock holds the NDSU outdoor triple jump record of 43 feet, ½ inch and indoor triple jump record of 42 feet, 4½ inches. She qualified for the Olympic triple jump in June, booking her trip to London with a winning 45-9 at the U.S. Olympic Trials. Women's triple jump preliminaries will be August 3 at 4:25 a.m., CDT.
A pair of Bahamian sprinters and a jumper formerly at Dickinson State also will be competing in track and field.
Miller, a 15-time NAIA All-American, will represent the Bahamas in both the 200-meter and 400-meter dash. Miller set the DSU school record of 45.42 in the 400 in 2009. The first round of the men's 200-meter dash is August 7 at 5:50 a.m. and the first round of the men's 400-meter will be August 4 at 4:35 a.m.
Former Blue Hawk Derrick Atkins will be competing in the men's 100-meter dash and Trevor Barry will be competing in the men's high jump. Atkins set the DSU school record of 20.81 in the 200-meter dash in 2005. The men's 100-meter preliminaries start August 4 at 4 a.m.
Barry, who in 2006 set DSU records in the long jump with a leap of 25 feet, 8 inches and the high jump with a 7-3 inches, will be begin high jump prelims on August 5 at 1:05 p.m.
If these Olympians inspire you, North Dakota has several competitions coming up. The Bismarck Marathon is September 15 and offers a full or half marathon, full marathon relay, 10-K or 5-K run. The Maah Daah Hey 100 mountain bike race though the Badlands August 18 concludes in Medora.

Cliff Asness created a "watershed moment in the hedge fund industry" when he brought his sophisticated hedge fund strategies into the mutual fund space in 2011, said Scott Burns of Morningstar in introducing Asness last week.
Asness created a similar moment in his morning keynote speech at the Morningstar Investment Conference on Friday, exploring whether the markets are efficient in his trademarked sophisticated manner, bolstered through the display of high-end research and peppered with humor. He began by apologizing for "talking about theory at 8:00 a.m." to a receptive audience before presenting his take on why the Nobel prize committee was correct in awarding its economics prize last year to two men who sit on opposite ends of the efficient market theory: Eugene Fama of the University of Chicago and Robert Shiller of Yale (Asness also made sure to honor the sometimes overlooked third winner of the prize last year: Lars Hansen, also of Chicago.).
"Gene and Bob are on opposite sides of the efficient market hypothesis," Asness said, before disclosing that he's "not exactly unbiased," since he not only was a student of Fama's at Chicago but his teaching assistant as well for two years, and that "along with Jack Bogle he's one of my investing heroes." But his bias, he said, was "at least in both directions." He also noted that his Ph.D dissertation at Chicago for Fama argued in favor of the price momentum strategy — "that it worked" — but that Fama was gracious and supportive despite their differing beliefs.
Invoking an article he wrote with John Liew for the March 2014 issue of Institutional Investor, Asness said that "I also think markets work very well (not perfectly) most (not all) of the time," but also that "I try to beat the markets on a daily basis (and at least somewhat for 'behavioral' reasons)," which would put him in the camp of Shiller, who argues (pardon the dumbing down) that it's human behavior that moves markets, not the universal information that is shared by all market participants. Or as Asness relayed Fama's 1991 definition of the EM hypothesis (EMH): "I take the market efficiency hypothesis to be the simple statement that security prices fully reflect all available information."
Asness said that his bottom line that he's "learned to live with my schizophrenia," saying "I'm not a super-hardcore efficient marketer."
Putting on his eyeglasses to read his slides on what an efficient market is and what it is not, Asness said "I'm putting on glasses; they're not sunglasses" — a sly reference to Bill Gross' shades-wearing performance the day before at Morningstar — drawing a big laugh from the crowd.
Among the things that an efficient market hypothesis is not, Asness said, is a belief that security returns are normally distributed; that it's an argument for "stocks for the long run, or a love of equities," or an argument for the free markets, or that the capital asset pricing model (CAPM) is the right model." The problem with the EMH-behavioral finance argument, he said, is threefold:
- You can't directly test the Efficient Market Hypothesis (and he said in passing, "the CAPM "does not work")
- To determine if security prices "fully reflect all available information," we need a model that says how prices are supposed to reflect this information.
- Thus, any test of market efficiency is a test of the joint hypothesis of market efficiency plus whatever pricing model you're using.
"No one believes the entire tech bubble was rational," he argued, before digressing to say that "'bubble' gets way overused; we use it to describe something we don't like," and then saying about the current U.S. stock market that "I'd call it a lower expected rate of return" market, but "not a bubble."
Fama himself teaches that "the markets are almost definitely not perfectly efficient," Asness said, because of the "limits of arbitrage." He then quoted Keynes: "Markets can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent."
He then turned to the real world of investors and what's the best way to invest. "The average stock picker thinks the market's pretty inefficient," he said, quoting Upton Sinclair: "it's difficult to get a man to understand something when his paycheck depends on him not understanding it." Instead, markets do behave "in some cases because they're efficient — but it's mostly in the middle."
Most individuals "would be better off acting like the market was perfectly efficient" and investing in index funds along with his hero John Bogle," since "active management is hard, and so is deviating from the market," referencing again Keynes' statement that the market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent.
If markets are not perfectly efficient, he said, then "you have to worry about regulation, accounting and liquidity." Making the case further for active investing, he said that there are "real anomalies to the market — indexing is not the only portfolio worth holding. You can be an indexer and beat the market just on fees, or you can do some sweat equity and do better."
But as far as Fama vs. Shiller, he concluded that "I thought Nobel committee was right to make the dual award."
As for the audience's receptiveness to Asness, one attendee tweeted: Dr. Clifford Asness is giving one of the best presentations I've ever heard. #AQR is going to get some awesome flows from this."
Even at 8:00 in the morning.

- Ferrari news
Montezemolo expecting 'huge effort' from Ferrari
- Drivers:
- Luca di Montezemolo
- Teams:
- Ferrari
Ferrari president Luca di Montezemolo says he is expecting "a huge effort" from the team's engineers to improve the car.
Fernando Alonso's lead in the championship is just four points after his retirement in the Japanese Grand Prix, and team principal Stefano Domenicali had already admitted that Alonso would need to win more races to become champion. With Alonso's lead all but erased, Montezemolo said he was relying on the engineers to quickly develop the car as they had done earlier this season.
"It's at times like these that I want to see the Ferrari I know; a team that is focused and that holds its nerve," Montezemolo told the Ferrari website. "I will speak to Fernando by phone soon to give him even more motivation with which to tackle these last five races, with the bit between his teeth, as indeed I expect all the team to do.
"[The] second place for Felipe was very important in this final part of the season when his contribution is even more vital. I expect a huge effort from our engineers who have already shown they are capable of that and we are perfectly aware that this championship is still in our hands."
Montezemolo added that he thought it was Kimi Raikkonen's mistake at Suzuka which took Alonso out of the race and that Alonso would have a greater championship lead were it not for bad luck.
"We know we can count on the strongest driver around at the moment and it's only mistakes from others at Spa and again at Suzuka, that have prevented him from having a more comfortable lead over his rivals. Let's not forget that, but for those two collisions, today Fernando would have had at least 30 points more and that's a conservative estimate. In sport, as in life, the wheel turns and we must not forget that: recently, it has not done so in a positive way for us, but it does not take much for it to change direction."

Desmond running fourth, needs help in NL Final Vote
Shortstop needs your votes; cast ballot online, by text and with tweets
WASHINGTON -- One can argue that shortstop Ian Desmond is the best player on the Nationals this season. Besides playing outstanding defense, he leads Washington in home runs and RBIs. It helped that he had a hot month of June in which he drove in 28 runs. That explains why Desmond is in the 2013 Final Vote for the All-Star Game.
At the final update on Thursday morning, Desmond remained in fourth, trailing Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman, Dodgers outfielder Yasiel Puig and Giants outfielder Hunter Pence. Dodgers first baseman Adrian Gonzalez sits in fifth.
Now in its 12th year, the 2013 All-Star Game Final Vote sponsored by freecreditscore.com gives baseball fans around the world the opportunity to select the final player on each All-Star team. Balloting began immediately following Saturday's Major League All-Star Selection Show presented by Taco Bell and ends today at 4 p.m. ET. The winners will be announced on MLB.com shortly thereafter.
For the second consecutive year, the 2013 All-Star Game MLB.com Final Vote Sponsored by freecreditscore.com (#FinalVote) will include a social balloting element as Twitter support from the candidates' fans over the last six hours of balloting will count toward their final vote totals. From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. ET today, any tweet that includes a designated player hashtag will be tabulated as part of the overall vote total used to determine the American League and National League winners. Fans may follow @MLB on the popular social networking service for the latest standings updates in advance of the 4 p.m. ET balloting deadline.
To cast a vote for Desmond, be sure to include #DesiIn13 in your tweet.

"It's great. It's an honor to be mentioned. I'm obviously not in," Desmond said. "To be thought of, it's good. I've come a long way since I came into the big leagues."
Although Desmond has better numbers than a lot of shortstops this year, teammate Ryan Zimmerman appeared to be stunned that Desmond wasn't on the team.
Zimmerman is hoping Desmond will get in if an injury prevents Rockies All-Star Troy Tulowitzki from playing in the game.
"Hopefully, Desi would get in there. There aren't too many better at the position than he is," Zimmerman said.
After talking to teammate Tyler Clippard, one gets the impression that Desmond could be another Derek Jeter. Clippard played with Jeter in 2007.
"He is the cornerstone of our infield. He plays one of the most important positions on the field," Clippard said. "Most importantly, he wants to be a leader. He has portrayed that in the way he has played on the field and the stuff that he is doing off the field.
"He works hard. He potential is tremendous. I think he can be a great player in this game. I see a lot of similarities in him as I do to a guy like Jeter. That says a lot to the type of player that Ian is. I'm not saying he is going to be a Jeter, but there is some similarities there."
When told he was facing Puig in the Final Vote, Desmond said, "It's not looking too good."
There will be an extra treat for fans who participate in the Final Vote online.

Dark Shadows Synopsis and Credits
In the year 1752, Joshua and Naomi Collins, with young son Barnabas, set sail from Liverpool, England to start a new life in America. But even an ocean was not enough to escape the mysterious curse that has plagued their family. Two decades pass and Barnabas (Johnny Depp) has the world at his feet--or at least the town of Collinsport, Maine. The master of Collinwood Manor, Barnabas is rich, powerful and an inveterate playboy...until he makes the grave mistake of breaking the heart of Angelique Bouchard (Eva Green). A witch, in every sense of the word, Angelique dooms him to a fate worse than death: turning him into a vampire, and then burying him alive. Two centuries later, Barnabas is inadvertently freed from his tomb and emerges into the very changed world of 1972. He returns to Collinwood Manor to find that his once-grand estate has fallen into ruin. The dysfunctional remnants of the Collins family have fared little better, each harboring their own dark secrets. Matriarch Elizabeth Collins Stoddard (Michelle Pfeiffer) has called upon live-in psychiatrist, Dr. Julia Hoffman (Helena Bonham Carter), to help with her family troubles. Also residing in the manor is Elizabeth's ne'er-do-well brother, Roger Collins, (Jonny Lee Miller); her rebellious teenage daughter Carolyn Stoddard (Chloe Moretz); and Roger's precocious 10-year-old son, David Collins (Gulliver McGrath). The mystery extends beyond the family, to caretaker Willie Loomis, played by Jackie Earle Haley, and David's new nanny, Victoria Winters, played by Bella Heathcote.
"Dark Shadows" stars Chloe Grace Moretz, Christopher Lee, Eva Green, Helena Bonham Carter, Jackie Earle Haley, Johnny Depp, Jonny Lee Miller, and Michelle Pfeiffer.
Directed by Tim Burton.
Written by Seth Grahame-Smith.
Produced by Christi Dembrowski, David Kennedy, Graham King, Johnny Depp, and Richard D. Zanuck.
Production company/distributor: Warner Bros..
Release Date: May 11, 2012

The offseason is officially here…
The parade up north is over, which means baseball season is finally done. Certainly not the way any of us had mapped it out, but what's in the past is now behind us and it's time to start looking forward again.
I just spent a couple days in Arizona with Don Mattingly at the Arizona Fall League and his energy and excitement for the upcoming season is palpable. You can see a genuine hunger for what he's trying to accomplish out there and how our team will go about playing the game in 2011.
For those who have never seen the Fall League, it's a very cool but strange way to watch games…most of the top prospects in the game and yet the stadiums are mostly empty, there's very little cheering, and most of the people in the stands work for one of the 30 teams.
But it's real baseball and legit players. I got to see Link and Elbert both pitch very well, plus about eight ABs each from Trayvon Robinson, Ivan DeJesus and Jerry Sands. If you live in Arizona, make sure to stop over there. Amazingly, last year's Fall League had guys like Buster Posey, Jayson Heyward and Stephen Strasburg playing, among others who are already in the bigs.
We'll do our best here at Inside the Dodgers to start posting more often. It's just not much fun to post while other teams are playing in the playoffs, but there's usually some sort of interesting thing to pass along and we'll do our best to put it here.
In the meantime, go ahead and put down your wish list for the Dodgers' offseason in the comments section…obviously Lilly is already locked up, but it'll be cool to look back in a year and see if the players you thought we should get (or get rid of) turned out the way you had hoped. If I think back to last offseason, most of the guys whose names were bandied about did not exactly turn out to be huge performers, but that's the fun of the Hot Stove League.

My wish Josh is that they'd fix this blog of its submission errors, time warps and explorer cannot open this page.
Ron Roenicke, yet another ex-Dodger player and minor league manager, gets his shot to manage in the bigs with Milwaukee.
I'm sure we'll do fine though with Little Joe Two-Trips.
My wish list: PITCHING and a BIG BAT (not Pathednick). Of course, this is probably out of the realm of possibility. SO, I HOPE AND PRAY THAT MCCOURT IS FORCED TO SELL THEM TEAM!
Oh, the irony. While the hated ones from up the 101 freeway celebrate a World Series victory, Dodger fans get to read really exciting stuff about who might be on the coaching staff, including the idea that the team needs multiple hitting instructors.
And while I usually can find humor in just about anything, there is nothing funny at all about "Pierre, The Sequel" coming anytime soon to Dodger Stadium, except of course the title which is funny.
Time check – 5:08 pm (PST)
So, ITDFST (Inside the Dodgers Future Standard Time) is an hour and 29 minutes of ahead of Pacific Standard Time. Just checking………………. I really do think this is one of the major reasons for the submission errors because both, submission errors and the time warping started happening at the same time.
Wish List – pitching, pitching and more pitching. We have been asking for it ever since I have been reading this blog, and we really haven't gotten that wish yet.
…….and of course, Frank selling the team would be a wish come true as well 🙂
Beltre, Lee, Cameron, Martinez. Just them.
That Belisario shows up to spring training, not only on time but in the best frame of mind, his young life has ever known.
I would sign ZERO free agents, and hope/pray/wish that the young players would get some nad, step up, and perform like champions: Kershaw, Billingsley, Broxton, Jansen, Paul, Loney, Ethier, Kemp, Elbert, and whoever else has the desire and grit to make a difference in his own life and the lives of LA Dodger fans everywhere.
I wish we'd get a GM that actually knows what this team needs and goes out and gets it rather than bringing in band aids and garbage like Ned does. Then I wish that Jamie wins and it forces Frank to sell to someone that can afford to run the team like the big market franchise that it is, and puts money back into the team rather than raping it so he can continue his lifestyle without using or having his own money. Then I wish that the McCourts are indicted for tax evasion and misuse of charity funds. Those are my off season wish lists.
Josh, the stadiums are empty and little cheering in the Arizona fall league, Mattingly should feel right at home there, it's just like the Dodgers this past year.
I have to apologize for my negativity to all the inside the Dodger people. Here is what I'd really do if I were GM. First I would walk up to Frank, and kick him in the nuts, then I would quit. Now assuming we had a decent human being as the owner, and not a low life. I'd try and bring Beltre home and put him back at 3rd, then I'd sign Dunn and play him at first. Loney I would try in left, he couldn't be any worse than Manny was out there. Then I would sign Kuroda for 2 years if he would sign. The other thing I would do is try to trade Broxton for a young set up pitcher, and let Jansen close. Broxton has fear on his face whenever he gets into a pressure situation, this is not good for a closer or set up guy. He has a good arm, but his problem is higher up. Just my 2 cents.
?I think there?ll be more aggressive behavior,? said agent Scott Boras, who represents Beltre and fellow free agent Jayson Werth. ?I would say as many as eight to 10 teams are unhappy with what happened to their teams for a variety of reasons. And I believe there are a number of fan bases that expect a great deal more out of their franchises than has been given to date.?
Translation: I like money…lot's of it…and there will always be suckers who'll pay up.
Josh – I really wish I didn't have to look at this Giants World Series Champions banner that just walked in my door with my son. Good Lord this is nauseating, but I am being a good Dodger fan and keeping my cool.
Kahli – I would love to take a chance on what we have. It can't be any worse than what Ned might stick us with instead.
Dodger32 – like lbirken, it is always good to read your two cents.
This question has been brought up before……
How come you reprimand the commenters here on ITD, for using inappropriate launguage, ( not saying, I disagree ) yet link this blog to the Dodgers site on FB, where inappropraite lauguage is not sensored, and highly in abundance, yet tolerated???
Dodger4life – it has been awful to read lately. Even messagebear's comments are light weight compared to many of those comments and without it being censored at all.
Yes Nelly I agree, I ask because my children, and thier many friends have FB accounts and this is not something, I care to subject them too. Especially being linked to Our Beloved Dodgers.
Thanks for correcting my spelling ( censored ) looks much better.
Darn spell check!!!
What's UP ITD'rs!
Thanks for the new post Josh!
I was watching the news this morning and of course they mentioned how this World Series had the lowest viewers ever. DUH! If they want viewers throw the Yankees vs. Dodgers in a World Series. This will be classic and the Nation will watch. Well one of the biggest problems baseball have with having viewers watch the World Series is FOOTBALL. And this time the whole drama with Football blockings & hits are getting to dangerous and all players were getting hurt, just got way more attention than the World Series. Solution to the problem (and of course this is what I think) All major sports Football, Basketball, Hockey & Baseball need to communicate & coordinate schedules. Well regular season games are fine but Playoffs and major events need special attention. That means no other sport may have a game during a playoff game. Respect for other sports! Games may continue as is once every household in America have a gameroom or mancave with multiple televisions allowing multiple sports viewing and enjoyment….even golf!
Love this headline on the D's homepage:
Dodgers looking to add run producer to offense
So what's Ned's first move? Why pick-up his end of the option on an aged banjo hitting speedy LFer that oh, has a knee injury so that the only tool the guy has is gone.
In his tenure, Ned's signed worthless FAs, recycled more useless garbage than landfill, and totally cleaned out the farm (which is probably what he's best at doing – shoveling shat.)
Hello there all. I hope you are all well as you read this. I haven't posted for awhile as I've been busy with family and work.
Nelly my 😦 was due to what I was reading and my general feeling of living here in Giant country. It's been pretty brutal. It wasn't for personal stuff.
You know how Giants fans are. In the last few years when the Dodgers were winning I didn't rub it in or anything & now all this people continue to pop off. All through September and especially now. It seems as if everyone here is all of a sudden a fan and wants to pop off about it. Funny thing is it seems with a few of the fans that are real fans that all year, I've talked to daily about every game the night before they are the ones that we shake hands and still talk about it and they aren't gloating and keep popping off.
Funny thing happened yesterday at work though. There is this one guy who is an older dude who is a very unique character. One of those people who make you laugh without trying to. Well he knows I love baseball because Frodo, uh I mean Lincecum and Zito come in there from time to time to get coffee and someone told him he needs to call me when they do because I love baseball so much.
So he is always asking me about the games, etc. He doesn't really like any one team but always asks. People are always giving me grief and he is there and hears them and laughs that they always pop off.
He kept telling me don't worry the Giants won't win — they never do. They will get close and then rip everybody's heart out. I kept telling him I thought they would because of their pitching. So yesterday I saw him for the 1st time in a couple of days and he goes "Well I guess they did it.". I told him yup and I guess he sensed my annoyance and said it's ok. The Dodgers have such better history. How many times have the Dodgers won in LA and haow many have the Giants won in SF? Then he says see — even a blind dog can find a bone once! I just started busting up.
So now when people get in my face I'm going to mention the blind dog.
I also still feel that the worst day being a Dodger fan is better than the best day being a Giants fan! I do think yesterday was the low point for this Dodger fan.
Oh & Josh thanks for the new thread.
D4 — Nice to see you & I agree. Someone should be checking the FB page and deleting those posts. I'm okay with it happening here if we get out of line. But I think way more kids are on FB than here reading our stuff.
So take care and don't forget… even a blingddog…
Collie – That is good to know the 😦 was for the gnats, but I know work has been hard on you too, and with the holidays coming up, it sure isn't going to get easier.
I agree with you Collie………..yesterday was really hard, especially after Michael came home last night from the parade and seeing the banner. I have been sticking to ITD more than FB lately due to the fact I am tired of seeing all the gnats crap stuffed in my face. Family or not, I am tired of hearing about it, especially from the bangwagoners. And you are right, I have heard less from the "real" fans than I have from the bandwagoners. The real fans don't need to say anything because they do know the feelings "a real fan" goes through, and we talk about it almost everyday.
That is a good story about the blind dog.
Pathednick turned down the Dodgers' offer 🙂
Good to see you, Collie.
Just remember what happened to the Giants rarely ever happens so this is the one time to gloat. Who knows when they will get it again. So they have to enjoy it while it last!
Well I haven't looked at all the free agents yet but my wish list other than the obvious of ridding the Dodgers of Framie, Ned, Honeycutt, and Conte… would be…
#1 is pitching. All the teams that made the playoffs did so because of pitching. The times have changed for the most part with PED testing & seeing the Giants win the way they did is an example. Great starting pitching and a great pen to shut people out. If they got to the 7th inning with a lead it was pretty much over. It would be nice if our pen could do that.
Rafael Soriano would be the 1st one I would target. We all know the bully cost us many games last year and I would rebuild the pen backwards. Soriano would close with Brox setting up. Jensen along with Kuo could be the 7th inning guys when needed. All 3 of those guys could close if one was used a few days in a row. That to me would be a huge pickup that would really stabilize the pen. If it didn't happen then my backup plan would be Joaquin Benoit as another arm for then pen. Then I would do the following… Texas made it to the Series with a rookie closer. Brox I think is great as a set up guy. So I would have Brox and Benoit set up and Jensen close.
Next I would sign both Ortiz again. Sorry… I'm just making sure your paying attention!! Of course I would check in with Lee and make a run at him and try to sell him on other things other than $$$ from the team. Endorsement $$$ nice place to live, etc… That probably wouldn't work but I would at least try. So the other pitcher I would look at is Andy Pettitte. I've wanted the Blue to pick him up for a few years but they haven't. I again would go for him. I think he would be good for the young guns. Then I would also go after Kuroda as well as Chris Young. Young has been injured but I'd give him an incentive laden contract. Which ever 2 of those 4 I could get would fill the rotation with Kersh, Bills, and Lilly.
Next would be LF, C, 2B,3B.
Obviously I'd love Crawford. Put him in Center, Dre to LF and Kemp to CF. would be awesome but I doubt that will happen. Werth I also like but I think playing in Philly really helped him and I think he is at the top of his career and will take too much money. So I think if I couldn't get Crawford then I would go from inside the organization like Jay Gibbons or look for a lower FA such as Ty Wigginton and sign them and spend my money elsewhere such as pitching.
Then go after Uribe. He could take care of 2B, 3B, and SS. He has some pop and 2 rings in the last 5 years. I would have him at 2nd and then he could spell Raffy and Blake.
I would also go after V-Mart or John Buck and have Russ back up. Or bye to Russ and have Blanco back up.
Now I know we couldn't get all these players but I would have this as a plan with the 1st being pitching and working my way down this list.
RIP Sparky Anderson. I thought he was great and he will be missed.
I knew I didn't want that trade to go through.
I'm surprise no one didn't mention that when he was in hospice last night. RIP Sparky Anderson.
I think you mean Kemp to RF.
New thread…

Kofi Annan to Yale crowd: reforming United Nations 'is absolutely essential' (video)
NEW HAVEN -- The United Nations must change with the times, the world peacekeeping group's former leader told a Yale University audience Thursday. That includes expanding the U.N. Security Council and bringing pressure to bear on corporations that do harm to impoverished nations.
"I think reform is absolutely essential," said Kofi Annan, the U.N.'s Secretary-General from 1997 to 2006. "The world has changed. The world has evolved."
Annan, 74, was in New Haven to celebrate the publication of a five-book set of his U.N. papers, a joint project by Yale and the City College of New York. Annan answered questions in a town hall format with John Negroponte, the former U.S. ambassador to the U.N. who now teaches at Yale.
The conversation ranged from Annan's youth in Ghana and his career at the U.N. to current crises in Syria and Mali. People make a grave mistake when they think of the U.N. as "them" rather than "us," Annan said.
"The U.N. is us," he explained.
Annan's was the U.N.'s seventh secretary-general. His tenure was marked by a growing need for international peacekeeping interventions around the globe. Those spots included Iraq, Somalia, Rwanda, Lebanon and Nigeria.
It was a transformative time for the organization, as the number of peacekeeping missions expanded. Annan said he saw his role as one of providing "functional interpretation" to the wishes of U.N. member nations.
"I decided we should focus much more on the individual," he said, meaning the people around the world in whose name the U.N. was founded.
Annan was awarded a Nobel Peace Prize in 2001. He worked tirelessly to fight the spread of HIV/AIDS and was critical of the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq in 2003. He also attracted his share of criticism, including much-publicized allegations of corruption in the U.N.'s oil-for-food program.
Although he continues to advocate for more participation by emerging countries in the U.N., Annan noted that the group's very complexity makes for complications in the field. U.N. peacekeepers not only have to negotiate with civilians during missions, they often have to negotiate with U.N. peacekeepers from other countries. Yet such challenges are necessary, he added, if the U.N. is going to achieve real cooperation instead of destructive competition.
Since leaving the U.N. Annan has remained active in international peace efforts. His diplomatic efforts have included work in Kenya and Syria.
Ongoing fighting in Syria is particularly troubling, he said.
"I think it's going to get worse. I think we need the Security Council to come together," he explained.
Annan said the U.S. and Russia must lead the way in shaping international consensus on a solution in Syria. Otherwise, a "chaotic collapse" there may lead to ethnic cleansing and ever greater global tension.
"This is not a type of crisis where one side wins and the other side agrees," he said.
His talk at Yale also included a bit of self-deprecating humor. Annan told the crowd about the time a stranger approached him from afar and he braced himself for either a fan or a critic.
"Morgan Freeman!" the man said, and asked for an autograph. Annan said he was happy to oblige.

The ABCs of Media and Children: Attention, Behavior, and Comprehension
This is an advance summary of a forthcoming article in the Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Communication. Please check back later for the full article.
Children are and have been active media users for decades. Historically, the focus on children and media issues have centered on the concerns and consequences of media use, generally around violence. In the last 40 years, we have seen a shift to study children and media from a more holistic approach, to understand both the positive and negative relationships between children and media use. Further, the recognition of the very important developmental differences that exist between children of different ages and the use of grand developmental theories, including those by Piaget and Vygotsky, have supported the field's understanding of the unique ways in which children use media and the effects it has on their lives. Three important constructs related to a more complete understanding of children's media use are the ABCs (attention, behavior, and comprehension). The first construct, attention, focuses on the way in which children's attention to screen media develops, how factors related to parents and children can direct or influence attention to media, and how media may distract attention. The second construct is the behavioral effect of media use, including the relationship between media use and aggressive behavior, but importantly, the positive effect of prosocial media on children's behavior and moral development. Finally, the third construct is the important and dynamic relationship between media and comprehension and learning. Taken together, these constructs describe a wide range of experiences that occur within children's media use.

7 Free Social Media Tools for Teachers
7 Fantastic Free Social Media Tools for Teachers
EDU 2.0 is a lot like online course management systems Blackboard and Moodle, but with a couple of distinct advantages. First, teachers can share their lesson plans, quizzes, videos, experiments and other resources in a shared library that currently hosts more than 15,000 pieces of content. Second, a community section allows teachers and students to network and collaborate with other members who share the same educational interests. And third, everything is hosted in the cloud for free.
2. SymbalooEDU
The popular visual organizing and sharing tool Symbaloo launched its "EDU" version last month. According to the company, 50,000 teachers are already using Symbaloo to organize classroom resources. The new EDU version comes with academic subject-specific resource pages or "webmixes" and top tools like TeacherTube, Slideshare, Google Docs, Flickr and more are fully embeddable. Teachers with a "Free Plus" account can add their school logo and customize the links. The site also allows students to easily share their Symbaloo pages and projects with classmates.
3. Collaborize Classroom
This app gives teachers four discussion format choices. Students can either agree or disagree with a statement, answer a multiple choice question, post responses, or have the choice between adding a new response or voting for someone else's response. Teachers can add photos or videos to their prompts and all of the discussions take place on one class page.
4. Edublogs
This WordPress-like blogging platform only supports educational content and thus, unlike WordPress, usually isn't blocked by school filters. Since 2005, it has hosted more than a million blogs from students and teachers.
5. Kidblog
Teachers can also control how private they want the blogs to be. They can keep them student-and-teacher only, allow parents to log in with a password, or make them open to the public.
6. Edmodo
7. TeacherTube and SchoolTube and YouTube
As the name implies, TeacherTube is YouTube for teachers. It's a great resource for lesson ideas but videos can also be used during class to supplement a lecture. For instance, you can let Mrs. Burk rap about perimeters if you like her idea but lack the rhyming skills to pull it off yourself. This site also has a crowdsourced stock of documents, audio and photos that can be added to your lesson plans. Unfortunately, every video is preceded by an ad.
SchoolTube is another YouTube alternative. Unlike other video sharing sites, it is not generally blocked by school filters because all of its content is moderated.
The original, generic YouTube also has a bevy of teacher resources, though it's often blocked in schools. Khan Academy consistently puts out high-quality lessons for every subject, but a general search on any topic usually yields a handful of lesson approaches. Some of the better ones are indexed onWatchKnow.

Deduno stymies Tribe as Twins roll in opener
Right-hander holds Indians to one run on three hits in six strong frames
CLEVELAND -- The recent struggles of Samuel Deduno continued during the first inning of Friday night's series opener at Progressive Field. From the second inning on, they seemed to vanish altogether.
Deduno -- who had been bothered by right biceps tendinitis -- allowed two singles and threw two wild pitches in the opening frame, resulting in a run for the Indians. It turned out to be Cleveland's only one. The Twins quickly answered with a pair of runs in the second and added on later as Minnesota won its second game in a row, taking the first of three games in Cleveland, 5-1.
"That was kind of vintage Deduno tonight," said Twins manager Ron Gardenhire, whose club has won three of four. "He definitely had better stuff tonight, against a very good hitting baseball team that normally puts the ball in play an awful lot. He did a really nice job for us."
Deduno largely stifled the Indians' bats over six innings, allowing just three hits. He used 93 pitches in the outing, during which he had four walks and six strikeouts.
"Effectively wild, you call it," Gardenhire said. "That's his forte. That's what he does. He moves people off the plate.
"We heard [Nick] Swisher telling [Justin] Morneau at first base that might have been the nastiest stuff he's seen all season."
The effort was a pleasant outcome for the Twins (57-70), who watched Deduno flounder on the mound during each of his previous three starts. In that span, the right-hander was 0-3 with a 7.02 ERA. Across 16 2/3 innings, Deduno had been tagged for 25 hits and 13 earned runs. Opponents hit .352 off him in that stretch.
"Today, the difference was my arm," said Deduno, who was hesitant at first to throw his hardest. "I felt pretty much better today. My fastball, aggressive. I could feel it today with my breaking ball, too. It was better today, my arm."
Though Deduno (8-7, 3.69 ERA) gave up the early run and the Twins wasted a savory scoring opportunity in their half of the first, Minnesota wasn't discouraged. Clete Thomas kicked off the second with a double to left. After an out, Pedro Florimon tied the game with a deep double of his own, and Chris Herrmann's two-out double put Minnesota on top for good.
Cleveland's most serious threat occurred in the sixth inning, when Bourn and Swisher reached with nobody out. But Jason Kipnis struck out after a few failed bunt attempts, and Herrmann gunned down Bourn at third base from behind the plate. After Carlos Santana walked to load the bases, Deduno induced an inning-ending groundout from Michael Brantley.
"That was a part of the game we should've been able to score," Bourn said. "They beared down us. He made a good throw when I stole."
The Twins began the game by loading the bases against Tribe starter Ubaldo Jimenez, who answered by striking out Josh Willingham, Ryan Doumit and Trevor Plouffe to escape the jam.
Shortly after, the Indians (69-59) got their run when Bourn led off with a single to right, moved into scoring position on the first of Deduno's wild pitches and came around on a single by Santana.
After going on top, the Twins added another pair in the seventh inning after Jimenez's exit. With two outs and men on the corners, Willingham laced a double to the wall in right-center, plating both runners and pushing Minnesota's lead to three runs.
"To be honest with you, from my standpoint, it was nice to help the team for once," said Willingham, who had been hitless in his prior 15 at-bats. "I haven't done very much lately to help us win games. We've been playing pretty good. It's nice to be able to contribute."
Minnesota grabbed another run in the eighth, which began with a double by Plouffe and a single by Thomas. Wilkin Ramirez's 6-4-3 double-play ball brought Plouffe in from third.
Following Deduno's departure, Brian Duensing kept Cleveland to two hits over 2 2/3 scoreless innings and Casey Fien got Mike Aviles to ground out to end the game.
Jimenez (9-8, 3.95 ERA) was gone after six innings and 114 pitches. He allowed five hits -- four of which were doubles -- and two runs, with three walks and a season-high 10 strikeouts.
While Jimenez had fewer walks and more strikeouts than Deduno, Deduno surrendered fewer hits and fewer runs.
"Sam gave up the run early," Willingham said, "and then settled down and got out of one jam, I think. Other than that, it was pretty smooth sailing for him."

David Petraeus stepped down as the director of the CIA on Friday, citing an affair.
"After being married for over 37 years, I showed extremely poor judgment by engaging in an extramarital affair. Such behavior is unacceptable, both as a husband and as the leader of an organization such as ours," he said in a statement.
Read all of CNN's reporting on the Petraeus resignation
A retired U.S. Army general who served as the top U.S. commander in Iraq and Afghanistan, Petraeus was sworn in as the head of the CIA in September 2011.
President Barack Obama accepted his resignation.
"By any measure, he was one of the outstanding general officers of his generation, helping our military adapt to new challenges, and leading our men and women in uniform through a remarkable period of service in Iraq and Afghanistan, where he helped our nation put those wars on a path to a responsible end," the president said.
"As director of the Central Intelligence Agency, he has continued to serve with characteristic intellectual rigor, dedication and patriotism."
Obama expressed confidence that the CIA will move forward under the direction of Acting Director Michael Morell.
Here's Petraeus' letter to the CIA staff:
Yesterday afternoon, I went to the White House and asked the President to be allowed, for personal reasons, to resign from my position as D/CIA. After being married for over 37 years, I showed extremely poor judgment by engaging in an extramarital affair. Such behavior is unacceptable, both as a husband and as the leader of an organization such as ours. This afternoon, the President graciously accepted my resignation.
As I depart Langley, I want you to know that it has been the greatest of privileges to have served with you, the officers of our Nation's Silent Service, a work force that is truly exceptional in every regard. Indeed, you did extraordinary work on a host of critical missions during my time as director, and I am deeply grateful to you for that.
Teddy Roosevelt once observed that life's greatest gift is the opportunity to work hard at work worth doing. I will always treasure my opportunity to have done that with you and I will always regret the circumstances that brought that work with you to an end.
Thank you for your extraordinary service to our country, and best wishes for continued success in the important endeavors that lie ahead for our country and our Agency.
With admiration and appreciation,
David H. Petraeus
Today, CIA Director David Petraeus submitted his letter of resignation to the President. Dave's decision to step down represents the loss of one of our nation's most respected public servants. From his long, illustrious Army career to his leadership at the helm of CIA, Dave has redefined what it means to serve and sacrifice for one's country.
Since he took over as Director in September of last year, he and I have worked together to tackle some of the most challenging issues faced by the Intelligence Community in more than a decade. Under his leadership, the CIA remained instrumental in providing our policy makers decision advantage through the best possible intelligence. I'm particularly thankful for Dave's unwavering support and personal commitment to my efforts to lead the Intelligence Community and integrate our intelligence enterprise.
Whether he was in uniform leading our nation's troops in Iraq and Afghanistan, or at CIA headquarters leading the effort to generate intelligence used to keep our nation safe, Dave inspired people who had the privilege of working with him.
I have spent more than five decades serving our country–in uniform and out–and of all the exceptional men and women I have worked with over the years, I can honestly say that Dave Petraeus stands out as one of our nation's great patriots.
On behalf of the entire Intelligence Community, I thank Dave for his service, his support and his continued friendship.
James R. Clapper
Statement by President Obama on the Resignation of CIA Director David Petraeus
David Petraeus has provided extraordinary service to the United States for decades. By any measure, he was one of the outstanding General officers of his generation, helping our military adapt to new challenges, and leading our men and women in uniform through a remarkable period of service in Iraq and Afghanistan, where he helped our nation put those wars on a path to a responsible end. As Director of the Central Intelligence Agency, he has continued to serve with characteristic intellectual rigor, dedication, and patriotism. By any measure, through his lifetime of service David Petraeus has made our country safer and stronger.
Today, I accepted his resignation as Director of the Central Intelligence Agency. I am completely confident that the CIA will continue to thrive and carry out its essential mission, and I have the utmost confidence in Acting Director Michael Morell and the men and women of the CIA who work every day to keep our nation safe. Going forward, my thoughts and prayers are with Dave and Holly Petraeus, who has done so much to help military families through her own work. I wish them the very best at this difficult time.
Going forward, my thoughts and prayers are with Dave and Holly Petraeus, who has done so much to help military families through her own work. I wish them the very best at this difficult time.–President Obama
How is this about the president? He had the affair–he comprimised security–he resigned.–Still not seeing how this involves the president. Libya–well his mistress was out lecturing referencing information she retrieved from the generals emails! Again, how is this the presidents fault?
It's my understanding Eisenhower had a long time mistress and he was a general and president.
Many details are still be uncovered–his involvement w/ this woman howbeit a personal relationship cross the lines w/his professional. He holds a very powerful position and our security comprimised.. We don't need to know all the details of what information–definition of classified.
The General has served our country and has been decorated accordingly. An affair, well we have had president's who have done the same and one a Four Star General. This is unfortunate and should be a situation involving he and his family. If the woman had access to his email doesn't seem like this would be out of line since she was writing his biography. Wouldn't she have been checked out prior to working with the General? So obviously she isn't a spy and national threat. Seems those throwing stones in our government should clean up their own backyards. This in no way takes away the esteem I hold for someone that has served our country as the General has done.
It's illegal to transfer classified information to a private computer-illegal. Not the affair, how the affair affected his ability to serve in his position. If he would have had the affair while serving in the military he would have been dishonorably discharged–military law. I along w/many others applaud his service.
I used to be suggested this web site via my cousin. I'm not certain whether or not this publish is written via him as no one else understand such detailed about my problem. You're incredible! Thank you!
Who is that woman in photo ? She looks like old paper grocery bag. Worn out.
Thats the General's wife

Good bye Petraus good ridens
How convenient! Now he's gonna miss out on testifying before Congress about the Benghazi affair! Bummer…What unfortunate timing! Darn!
It's obvious that he's being REMOVED to protect the "official" spin of the story. He can be thankful however that they are allowing him to leave instead of him turning up "suicided"!
Thank you for your comment. Straight to the points; yes plural.
THIS is the result of double standard of USA.....no matter how skillfull people you have there...one wrong act, and you career is gone.....give him a brake..... IF the guy is worth forth doing his job......mistress is NOTHING. GROW UP USA !!! really! GIVE this man JOB BACK !!! you dont have enough good people to loose about this kind of nonsence !!!
How can you trust someone who shows such poor judgement when lives are on the line?
Oh boy....if a mistress is a poor judgement for you........when in line......you are really in the wrong spot.......GET A LIFE! NO military man/women will /would put their spouse advance in the common good.....and that judgement is and will always be your weakness, and..trust me.....the enemy..will found it.......so put yourselves together and start to think the bigger picture than someones mistress, for god sakes......you will look so weak because of this that you dont even imagine..........ones put an mistress overs an career and skillful officer......youll be laughed the sheeps near fences.....so to speeks !!!!!!!!! A BIG mistakes from you....really big......
PAT PAT PAT........There was no affair....He wasn't OUTED....what man, in his right mind , would out himself and embarrass his wife and entire family unless he was pressured to do so.....he wasn't outed dear....he outed himself....Men don;t do that....no matter what their position is....HELLO !!!!!!
Wake up AMERICA!!!!!!!
Marxism is alive and well and in the White House....what do you want to bet Patreous has the best retirement plan ever...???????
You post " GIVE this man JOB BACK !!! "
There is not one single American who took his job away from him. Read the article again, I know you Fins can read and speak better English than most Americans.
General David Patraeus made the decision, all by himself, to resign from office.
He was FORCED to resing.....thats the difference.
He resigned,,,,he wasn't fired !
He was FORCED to resing.....thats the difference.
HEY FINLAND!!!! He wasn't outed....think...who admits to an affair out of the clear blue.....5 days before they are suppose to testify in a case against a corrupt President.....coincidence....I don't think so.....!!!!!!!!!!
Obama is a smooth operator. I can only conclude that Dave compromised on the Bengazi affair; and the best way to help maintain his intelligence reputation was to use a family banana skin, which everyone would understand to give him a soft landing. I am sure the info will eventually come out. You may be thinking it is about covering up for Obama's inaction after the attack; you will be shocked – It points mostly to complication with some republicans to create a chaos that would down the POTUS. I still look back to the Romney 47% video where someone offered him an opportunity to take advantage of a hostage crises in the middle east the same way Reagan did. irrespective of how many times I watched the Bengazi video clips, it only points to a hostage taking attempt that went sour. I am surprised that the CIA is not yet questioning the guy that made that suggestion in the video. A little insider information to Jihadists and assurance that they won't encounter serious opposition is enough to galvanize them to take a USA ambassador hostage; thinking they are fighting for Allah, but not realizing that they are doing the bidding of a GOP strategist. If the white house don't put a gag on the press, the truth will com out. And rather than implicate the POTUS, the real Enemy of State will be discovered sooner than later.
You are INSANE!
The REAL enemy of the STAT is a resident of the WHITE HOUSE,,,,,,hint....he ain't WHITE!
I'd like to see more women in positions of authority.
Petraeus should not resign. He is lacking in humility. I am very disappointed in him. He has too much pride to accept his own imperfection, an imperfection that is an unfortunate common fault. No one has asked him to resign.... We are all prepared to accept his faults, which are no worse than the rest of us. It's him who will not accept that.
Speak for yourself. It matters how public officials treat their families because they are role models whether you think they should be or not. It's not unusual to be attracted to someone who isn't your spouse but if you don't have the self control to shut those feelings down, why on earth should we trust you to be able to lead the CIA?
So was she in some agent of your enemy??? You dont stopped your mind to stop crushing to someone...thets not how people minds work, humans are not a machines......you know.......one fell in love, no matter what and thats it.........dont kill ones career because of that !!!
That role model Cr*p is so nauseating. Petraeus was the CIA boss....He made the hard decisions. People lived or died at his orders. He was a political appointee ...(Granted, a good one). But a role model...you jest sir!
It is all about OBAMA'S imperfections dear....not his own.....HELLO !!!!! ??????????????????
Maybe we could put more Bush Nazi's in the CIA.
Eunuchs were used by kings to keep a servants mind only on their duty. Applicants applying for sensitive government positions should accept castration as a guarantee of fidelity.
Today we remove their brain!
The only person who should be castrated is OBAMA for screwing the Entire Country !!!!!!
From his family's perspective, seems as if he really was General Betrayus. And for being this seasoned a military man, who now must be replaced after a stupid dalliance that could have subjected him to blackmail, he's betrayed all of our trust, too. Hey Clemenza, why don't you take "Rocco" to the airport.
That should have been "Carlo" (to the airport). But I'm sure most of you caught my gist.
What Planet are you living on Phillipe...there was no affair....HELLO!
I bet you voted for OBAMA.....right ??????????
There is no great mystery about this. It happens to General Petraeus just like it happens to Butch the plumber or Mike the cable guy. When Mr. Johnson wants attention, guys turn off their brains. It's a CONSTANT male problem.
SURE!!!!!! 5 days before he is to testify against OBAMA.....wake up and smell the roses....they STINK!
The Irony here is that if infidelity is Truely a measure of a man's character and leadership qualities, our nation was founded and led throughout the centuries by many men of no character whatsoever!
Wow news spreads fast. I bet the political hacks in the White House helped move this along. There have been many reports in DC of operatives in the Obama White House working to undermine Petraeus.
Will Barbara Starr report in that??
