2006 Dodge Ram Mega Cab 4x4 - Monstrous Mega CabPosted in Project Vehicles on January 1, 2006
Dodge just introduced its biggest cab ever in a pickup truck-four monster doors and an interior spacious enough to throw a party. Dodge achieved this colossal 4x4 (and available two-wheel-driveversions) by taking the dimensions of the 160.5-inch wheelbase Quad Cab with an 8-foot bed, and stretching the cab by nearly 2 feet and slapping on a 6-foot 3-inch bed, along with a new frame and suspension and of course the redesigned sheetmetal the entire Dodge truck line received this year.
Dodge based the Mega Cab series on the 3/4-ton (2500 series) for the 1/2-, 3/4-, and 1-ton models; yes, you get a real, solid-axle, eight-lug axle for the front of the 1/2-ton (1500) series. That's right, an eight-lug 1/2-ton pickup, subsequently making your registration fees less (in California a 3/4-ton is considered a commercial vehicle), but you can still tow 8,400 pounds of trailer.
Overall the look of the new sheetmetal is full-on Dodge big-truck styling, but with a bit better flair and shape, and the interior abounds with new amenities and a fresh look. In fact, the 60/40 seating availability and the load-folding features in the rear seat make this a truly functional pickup. We even snatched some quality ZZZs on the reclining rear seats while trundling around the windy roads of Virginia, and found it just right for our 5-foot 9-inch sleeping position.
But underneath is the big news that even the Dodge marketing types completely missed, while the engineers knew full well what they could get away with without raising corporate ire about a "rough riding" solid-axle front suspension. Dodge was the last OE manufacturer to wimp out and slap the relatively worthless, yet "smooth riding, carlike" independent front suspension into its 1/2-ton trucks back in 2001 when Version II of the big-truck body style debuted. Dodge aficionados around the globe bemoaned the change to IFS on the 1500 series, as they wanted their trucks to ride like a truck, not a car. However, we found this Version III Ram 1500/2500/3500 Mega Cab to have a very smooth and compliant solid-axle feel, with the stability of a real truck already built in. The 3/4- and 1-ton versions are a bit more robust than the 1/2-ton in the suspension department, but they can haul substantially heavier loads as well. Fitted with the 5.7L Hemi only on the 1500, Hemi or Cummins diesel on the 2500, and the Cummins only on the 3500 (1-ton), these trucks can tow and play hard. In fact (although the NV273 transfer case is electrically shifted), these trucks are built plenty tough and are only limited by the mongo wheelbase, which sort of destroys any ramp breakover angle needed for recreational four-wheeling. We couldn't take them off road on this first introduction, even though they provided us with a 1/2-ton solid-axle truck. Instead, we had to spend our days cruising high-end horsey places and towing horse trailers, which makes marketing sense for the spacious cabin of this limo-like work truck. But just before press time we snagged a 3500 for the weekend, and used it as the Dodge engineers intended: as a real truck that has real room for six adults in comfort, a real engine, a real axle in a 1/2-ton, and that can tow real 4x4s to the trail head in class and comfort. Really.
Real Important Stuff
2006 Dodge Ram Mega Cab 4x4 1500/2500/3500 Pickup
Real solid front axle
Real five-link coil suspension (front)
Real recirculating ball steering
Real Hemi or Cummins engine
Real auto or stick tranny
Real 3.73 or 4.10 axle ratios
Real four-wheel disc brakes
Really expensive ($35-$55K)
Really comfortable
Really big
Really nice
Another new offering from Dodge is the all-new 1500 Ram 4x4 (non-mega cab), with revised and refined (so they say) IFS front and solid-axle rear, but monotube shocks and a new NV243 part-time transfer case or an NV246 on-demand part-/full-time transfer case, which features a 2 Hi and an auto position for full-time 4WD. More importantly, the 5.7L Hemi now features the MDS cylinder deactivation system, which is touted to be more fuel efficient than the regular Hemi. We did note that the noise level inside the 1500 was as quiet as the Mega Cab, as they both use Polymer Constraint Layer (PCL) steel which deadens road noise, as well as better body mounts, door seals, and laminated front door glass for a quieter ride.
But the real big news is almost a secret for lack of a marketing blitz so far, as the photo from Dodge clearly shows the TRX4 Off-Road decal, yet we've seen no associated advertising. Strange. Hopefully we'll soon see how the off-road package of a limited slip, modified suspension, skidplates, and tow hooks actually work. Our 4x4 of the Year test (scheduled for next month's issue) is slated to have the Dodge Ram 1500 TRX4 Off-Road package truck included, so we'll fill you in on the details as we delve into the test.

Let me propose something: The love-child (fine, if you insist: "love-foal") of Chad Johnson and Rags to Riches could be the greatest racing machine in the history of the world.
Now, before you go and complain about "abominations against nature," consider that Restore the Roar was the favorite to beat Johnson in their race yesterday at River Downs in Cincinnati: Johnson won handily.
So handily that Johnson - the cross-training Bo Jackson of our time — wants new challenges:
"Floyd Mayweather, you're next," Johnson said. "I want to fight you. I'd like to take Kobe and LeBron one-on-one. Jeff Gordon, we can take a couple laps."
And consider that Rags to Riches became the first filly to win the Belmont in more than a century. How, precisely, is THAT "stud fee" windfall supposed to work?
Perhaps, if not a mating match, the pair can meet on the track in the ultimate "Battle of the Sexes." I guarantee: Put it in primetime on broadcast TV, and it would get better ratings than the NBA Finals.

Marathon Suspect Will Be Tried In Federal Court [VIDEO]
On the one-week anniversary of the Boston Marathon bombings, the White House says suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev not be tried as an enemy combatant.
The decision means that Tsarnaev will be read his Miranda rights which he was not read when he was arrested in a Watertown, Massachusetts backyard boat on Friday night.
A court official says the surviving suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings is facing federal charges and has made an initial court appearance in his hospital room.
The charges against the 19-year-old remain sealed. The US Attorney's Office Disttrict of Massachusetts tweeted that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is being charged with conspiring to use weapon of mass destruction against persons and property in U.S. resulting in death.
Suspect In Serious Condition
Meanwhile, the FBI says Tsarnaev remains in serious condition at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Brookline, Massachusetts. CNN reports that Tsarnaev is answering questions by nodding his head. He has been asked if there are more explosive devices and if anyone else was involved in the Marathon bombing plot.

I have the same comments as I did on Nov. 26th. You might ask why the same order 2 months later ... the case was not designed nor did I expect it to survive being thrown off the trunk of my car as I took a turn at 20 MPH. It did hold up well but I got a new phone so I figure I should have a new case.

I have been an artist my entire life. My paintings are in private collections all over the world. I enjoy a wide variety of painting mediums from watercolor and oil, to silks and pastels. Once I discovered painting on silk I was enchanted. I love the excitement of pure vibrant color. I sometimes feel like silk painting is a direct connection to the divine in all of us. I enjoy sharing my love for silk painting through exhibitions and teaching. I believe everyone has a creative spirit within them. I am the happiest when I am in touch with that part. To me it is the heart and essence of a human being. Painting has always been as natural as breathing for me; and as necessary. It's a passion for life expressed through art and...

Maidstone [1] is a town in Mid-Kent, in the South East of England.
Straddling the river Medway, Maidstone [2] is the economic, administrative and agricultural centre of Kent. For many years the major employment in the town was provided by the agricultural markets, insurance brokers and the toffee factory to the south of the river. Nowadays, however, many residents use Maidstone as a base to commute into London, or are employed within the retail, administrative or service sectors within the town.
Get in
By air
The nearest major airport is London Gatwick Airport, which is 42mi/67km away.
By car
Maidstone sits just alongside the M20, which connects the M25 with Folkestone and the Kent coast. The A26 runs west to Tunbridge Wells, and the A229 heads north to Chatham, Gillingham and Rochester, and south (joining the A21) to Hastings.
Be warned - the centre of Maidstone is dominated by a complicated and sometimes frustrating one-way system.
Parking can be a problem if you do not know your way round, but it is recommended that you park in either The Chequers Center car park that is in the town center located in King Street, opposite the Bowling Alley. The entrance to this is up a ramp with a height barrier bar.
By train
Maidstone has rail links to London, Chatham, Ashford (for the Eurostar) and Tonbridge (via Paddock Wood).
Fare and timetable information is available from South East Trains, tel. 08457 484950.
Get around
By bus
Arriva is the bus company that operates in Maidstone. Timetables and fares are available on their website. Buy your ticket from the driver when you board the bus.
By taxi
If there is a large group of you, then it may be easier and cheaper to get a taxi from one of the local taxi companies, as Maidstone's bus service is not the cheapest!

SmartCode Therapy Monitoring with Optional SmartLink Therapy Management System
Smart Code provides convenient management of data by remotely tracking and monitoring adherence data, usage, and effectiveness of therapy. This provides convenience for the healthcare provider and patient, as this decreases the need for repeated visits. The data gathered is also vital to monitoring the effectiveness of therapy and making consequent adjustments, ensuring that the patient gets the best treatment all the time.
Patented Flow RoundingTM Technology
The Flow Rounding Technology eases abrupt transitions during IPAP and EPAP for superior comfort and convenience to the patient.
Pressure Support Range of 0-12 cmH2O
The wide pressure support range available, guarantees that treatment is highly customized and personalized to the special needs of the patient.
Respiratory Event Detection and Automatic Pressure Adjustment
Detects apneas, hypopneas, and other OSA and Non OSA events and adjusts automatically to ensure that optimunm therapy is maintained at all times.
Among the Most Silent AutoBilevel Units Available
Functioning at 26 Dba, the device is one of the quietest on the market, ensuring that you and your bed partner enjoys a quiet, uninterrupted nights sleep that is beneficial for compliance and therapy.
Adjustable Definition of Apnea and Hypopnea
This simple feature contributes to customization of therapy, by ensuring that definitions of Apnea and Hypopnea are customized to the patient's specific condition. This guarantees that the device always delivers the optimum therapy for the individual patient instead of relying on a generic standard for all patients.
Compact, Ergonomic, and Easy to Use Design with Easy-to-read LCD Display
The compact design assures a small footprint, and guarantees that the device will fit in unobstrusively on our nightstand. It also has slip resistant pads on the bottom to prevent accidental slippage while on your table.

The intuitive set up has three buttons that control almost all functions that highly simplify operation. The easy to read back lit LCD display ensures that all visual data or setting is easily seen by the patient.
Pressure Delay Settings and Soft Start
Increases pressure settings to the set IPAP pressure in a span of 10 seconds to soften the adjustment to higher pressures required in bilevel therapy. Pressure delay also eases the device to the prescribed pressure and allows the patient to fall asleep at lower pressures (0-45 minutes in 5-minute increments and .5 increments for pressure) This ensures that the patient receives gradual and non abrupt changes, that may interfere in patient comfort.
Snoring and Mask Condition Detection and Auto Mask On/Off
With snoring and mask condition detection, the device automatically adjusts to pressure changes and needs, so that sleep is uninterrupted for the patient. The mask can also activate upon wearing and deactivate when removed for patient convenience.
Automatic Altitude Adjustment up to 8,500 Feet
Guarantees that the device can be used and will automatically adjust to pressure changes irrespective of your location, be it at in the city or the Colorado Rockies. The IntelliPAP AutoBilevel system is the device to bring anywhere you go for continous therapy.

Optional Integrated Heated Humidification System
The optional integrated humidification system enhances the therapeutic capability of the device as well as the comfort levels. It seamlessly docks into the main device and does not require a separate hose of power cord. The reservoir is built with an overfill protection and prevents water from entering the device.

For years the late Mister Rogers asked children, "Who are the people in your neighborhood?" Now police are asking residents to do the same to help prevent crime.
Three 14th District police officers assigned to Chestnut Hill – Thomas Seymour, Robert Mahan, and Kimberli Harris – are asking residents to share in the responsibility of making their neighborhood a safe and beautiful place to live.
Mahan, 39, of Andorra, said burglaries are one of the biggest problems in Chestnut Hill. He said an important part of his job is educating homeowners on how to prevent them.
"People in Chestnut Hill hesitate to call 911 because they don't want to bother us," said Mahan, who has eight years of experience with the Philadelphia Police Department.
Mahan said neighbors of burglary victims will often recall seeing somebody in their neighbor's backyard after the crime was committed. He said burglars often pose as landscapers or other maintenance workers. He added that burglars will often knock on the door and ask for random people.
Recently, Mahan said an elderly couple were recently arrested in Lower Merion for a series of burglaries.
"They looked like they lived there," Mahan said. "If you get a sense that something's not right, call us. We'll check it out."
Seymour, 44, of northeast Philadelphia, said residents are listening.
"People are heeding our advice and calling 911 if they see anyone acting suspicious," said Seymour, a 16-year veteran of the Philadelphia Police Department.
Some examples of suspicious behavior include sounds of glass breaking, an unfamiliar vehicle circling the block or someone carrying objects out of a house.
"The folks up here have been really responsive and we really appreciate it," Seymour said. "We can't do it all by ourselves."
He added that the residents and the community play a huge part in reducing crime.
"If you see something, report it," Seymour said.
Harris, 42, of northeast Philadelphia, urged residents to call the district if they know their property is going to be vacant.
"If you are going on vacation, give us a call so we can put it in the roll call log," said Harris, who has 10 years on the police force. "Everybody will be made aware of it and the district will keep a record of it."
She said the important thing is to keep the lines of communication open and be proactive.
Harris said recently police were able to make an arrest because a resident was enrolled in Operation ID, a crime prevention program that involves labeling personal property with an identification number and recording serial numbers for those items. After the property is labeled, police provide window stickers to display, letting a potential burglar know that items have been registered.
Recently, three bicycles were stolen from several properties on Rex Avenue.
"We knew what the bikes looked like and were able to identify them," Seymour said.
Seymour said he and Harris were investigating four youths in connection with an attempted burglary in the 5th District, when she noticed that one of the teenagers was riding on one of the stolen bicycles.
"We were able to arrest all four youths and were able to recover the stolen bicycles," Seymour said.
"One owner didn't even notice his bike was missing. We returned his bike to him before he even knew it was missing."
Seymour added that because the bikes were registered and could be easily identified police were able to make an arrest.
"Even something minor can be important – if we can add possession of a stolen bike to a burglary – it gives us a little more leverage," Seymour said.
Mahan warned residents to be suspicious of people soliciting money for magazines, sports teams or charities. He said one man claimed to be soliciting money for his daughter's track team – the Mt. Airy Track Team – which doesn't exist.
"There is no Mt. Airy Track Team," Mahan said.
Seymour added: "We don't want to discourage people from feeling like they can't contribute to something – but nobody wants to learn that they gave $20 for nothing."
Harris said if someone makes you feel uncomfortable or gives you a hard sell, call 911.
"Let us come out and assess the situation," Harris said.
Seymour added that after all it was their duty to serve and protect.

1132: Frequentists vs. Bayesians
|Frequentists vs. Bayesians
Title text: 'Detector! What would the Bayesian statistician say if I asked him whether the--'
[roll] 'I AM A NEUTRINO DETECTOR, NOT A LABYRINTH GUARD. SERIOUSLY, DID YOUR BRAIN FALL OUT?'
[roll] '... yes.'
This is another comic about the accuracy of presidential election predictions that used Bayesian statistical models, such as Nate Silver's 538 and Professor Sam Wang's PEC. Thomas Bayes studied conditional probability - the likelihood that one event is true when given information about some other related event. From Wikipedia: "Bayesian interpretation expresses how a subjective degree of belief should rationally change to account for evidence".
In the comic, the likelihood that the detector is lying is much higher than the likelihood of the Sun exploding. Therefore, one should conclude that a single "yes" result is probably a false positive. The bit about "p < 0.05" comes from a naive interpretation of modern scientific research standards (known as the P value), where a result is presumed to be valid if there is less than a 5% chance that it came from random chance. There is a 1/36 chance of rolling two sixes on 2d6.
The title text refers to a classic series of logic puzzles (and the movie Labyrinth), where there are two guards in front of two exit doors, one of which is real and the other leads to death. One guard is a liar and the other tells the truth. The visitor doesn't know which is which, and is allowed to ask one question to one guard. The solution is to ask either guard what the other one would say is the real exit, then choose the opposite.
It is always a good bet that the sun hasn't gone nova, if you can get anyone to take it. When you lose, there will not be time to collect.

Back to top dhsampsoJoined: 17 Jun 2009Posts: 44Location: Virginia Posted: Tue May 03, 2011 4:49 pm Post subject: I had one friend teach at one or two Institutes in San Pedro/Los Yoses without a TEFL cert, but it is a little rare these days with so many teachers having TEFL/TESOL/CETLA. I think she worked for ProLingua at one point and she eventually landed a job working in a private elementary school. So, she fared very well. However, a teacher in a primary school is also the nurse (no school nurses, so gotta watch the kids all the time) and don't expect to get too much support from the school administration with class supplies and nagging parents (I guess nagging parents is usual, but in Latin America it can get you fired real easily). I made roughly $6/hr. as a teacher, but I had a salary, so I was lucky not to have weekly fluctuations on my income. Others pay more, but you may have the class-by-class payment scheme where if your class gets canceled you don't get paid. I was also lucky to have almost all my classes on-site at the school where I worked (Maximo Nivel). A lot of people have to travel around and that can get old real quick; especially when going to the beach involves long bus rides. You can definitely make more at other places and with private classes, if you're allowed (some contracts with schools don't allow you.

The second year of the new district format for high school playoffs has produced an interesting road to the state championship.
Overall, everyone seems satisfied with the new seeding process. The No. 1 and 2 seeds were dominant over the No. 7 and 8 seeds – just like the system in supposed to work. The new format has placed a lot more meaning in the regular season games. The performance on the field during the regular season allows the No. 1 and 2 seeds to have a much-deserved home field advantage home field advantages through the first two rounds of the playoffs.
The Missouri State High School Activities Association has spent many years attempting to develop a fair system for all of the high school football teams. I had the dubious task of serving on three of the ad-hoc communities that have worked to revise the football playoff system. It is impossible to please everyone. MSHSAA takes conference and geographic alignment into consideration to divide districts for all six classes. Each class is determined by official school enrollments.
I do like the eight-team districts and the opportunity for teams to advance by victories on the field. It would be fun to see a lower-seeded team upset a top seed and advance to the big game, even though it would be a huge statistical long shot.
Good football teams generally have a significant advantage over the other lower-seeded teams. That's the theory behind seeding. In years past some of the districts had three or four of the top 10 teams in the state in one district. Through the late '80s and all of the way to the late '90s, only one team emerged from the district.
At one point in the late '80s, the large class had Rockhurst, Blue Springs, Columbia Hickman and Lee's Summit in the same district. Prior to district play all four teams were among the top 10 in the entire state. It was not a fair situation. A much weaker team elsewhere in the state advanced in the playoff system and three really good teams were eliminated.
MSHSAA then went to a system that allowed two teams to advance from each district. It was a much better system than its predecessor but still lacked equity.
The present system is a solid improvement over the past, but not perfect. It seems a large number of state semifinal games and championship games are still blowouts. That situation should be eliminated if a re-seeding process would occur following district play. The present system still leaves the door open for inequity at the championship level.
The logic behind the current system is to avoid two teams from the same area competing for the state championship. The two best teams on the field deserve to compete for the championship – geographies should not play a role in the decision. In Class 6 Rockhurst, Blue Springs and Blue Springs South could all be worthy of a state championship matchup. In Class 5, Fort Osage and Lee's Summit West would be a great state championship matchup. I think players, coaches and fans would all much rather see a nail-biter during the big game than witness a huge blowout.
The travel excuse given by MSHSAA just does not fly. We are only talking about seeding the semifinal game, and I am sure any superintendent and school board would figure out how to get their teams to a state championship venue.
Nothing brings a community and high school together more than giving its young people the opportunity to experience an event like the state championship game – a game played on an NFL field and televised throughout the state of Missouri.
My good friends at MSHSAA have done a good job of improving the system. My challenge to them now is take it one step further and seed one more round. That would truly produce a state champion.
• If you watched the Chiefs game Sunday you heard Dan Dierdorf behave like a cheerleader for the Buffalo Bills. Come on Dan. You are a well-deserved member of the Missouri Hall of Fame. Even though you played for St. Louis, get off the Bills bandwagon!
• Give Missouri kudos for their big time bonus victory against Tennessee.
• KU basketball might be just as exciting for Jayhawk fans as football has been for Tiger fans.
• It looks like Division II teams like Northwest Missouri State, Emporia State, Pittsburg State and Washburn all might get bids to advance to the NCAA Division II playoffs. Missouri Western is still not totally out of the picture. The MIAA is really something if you like Division II football – good stuff.
• Pinch me, please … Chiefs 9-0 at the bye week!
• My quote of the week comes from Hall of Fame catcher Roy Campenella: "I am proud of my trophies, but truthfully when I was playing, I never thought of records. I just tried to do all I possibly could to help the team win."

Sox can't cash in on Quintana's strong start
CHICAGO -- Based on the first inning of Detroit's 1-0 victory over the White Sox on Wednesday night at U.S. Cellular Field, it didn't look as if either starter was going to be around very long.
Jose Quintana and Anibal Sanchez combined to throw 51 pitches, of which just 26 were strikes, during a frame that featured five total base runners and covered 30 minutes.View Full Game Coverage
CHICAGO -- Based on the first inning of Detroit's 1-0 victory over the White Sox on Wednesday night at U.S. Cellular Field, it didn't look as if either starter was going to be around very long.
Jose Quintana and Anibal Sanchez combined to throw 51 pitches, of which just 26 were strikes, during a frame that featured five total base runners and covered 30 minutes.View Full Game Coverage
The funny thing about that opening inning is that neither team scored. And Quintana and Sanchez quickly settled down to turn in quality starts.
"Both of them pitched great," said White Sox manager Robin Ventura of the transformation from the taxing first inning. "A lot of swings and misses for Sanchez. But both of them were in a little bit of trouble and battled out of it. Sanchez just pitched better."
"It was a tough first inning," said Quintana through translator and White Sox coach Lino Diaz. "After that, I tried to attack hitters and that's what I was able to do."
Detroit (84-62) finally broke through in the eighth, when Prince Fielder and Victor Martinez singled off reliever Matt Lindstrom (2-4), and Omar Infante delivered a two-out single placed perfectly between shortstop Alexei Ramirez and third baseman Marcus Semien to score Fielder. The Tigers were 0-for-10 with runners in scoring position before that hit by Infante, who is 6-for-10 with seven RBIs in his last five games while hitting with RISP.
There were earlier chances in this contest for both teams to cross the plate.
Quintana loaded the bases in the first with one out on Torii Hunter's single to center and walks issued to Miguel Cabrera and Fielder. But Martinez popped out to catcher Josh Phegley in foul territory and Nick Castellanos struck out on a 3-2 fastball at 93 mph.
In the bottom of the frame, Leury Garcia and Jordan Danks opened with singles, only to be stranded there when Ramirez struck out and Paul Konerko grounded into an around-the-horn double play started by Cabrera. The White Sox put two on in the third behind singles from Phegley and Garcia but could not score, and then loaded the bases in the fifth on two walks and Garcia's infield single.
Ramirez took a called strike as the next hitter after a free pass to Jordan Danks loaded the bases, and Ramirez didn't seem to like the call by home-plate umpire Larry Vanover. He grounded out on the following pitch and showed his anger as the inning was complete.
Sanchez (14-7), who earned a career-high 14th win, finished with 116 pitches over 7 1/3 innings, striking out 10 and walking four. He put two on with one out in the eighth, but got help from Jose Veras, who fanned Konerko, and Drew Smyly, who struck out Adam Dunn. Dunn struck out four times in the loss, and is just 8-for-78 in his last 21 games.
The White Sox three-through-six hitters finished 0-for-15 with seven strikeouts, although Ventura gave Sanchez most of the credit for that futility.
"He's getting you to swing and miss. A lot of guys weren't swinging the bat very good," Ventura said. "Any time he got in trouble, there was guys being aggressive and he was staying away from the strike zone. His ball seemed like he was making it move to both sides of the plate. Nobody really looked comfortable up there."
"When I'm out there, I'm trying to keep the score close," Sanchez said. "I'm waiting for the time the team gives me run support and gives me the lead. That happened today."
Infante opened the seventh with a double and moved to third on Alex Avila's grounder. Quintana still pitched out of trouble by striking out Jose Iglesias swinging and after hitting Austin Jackson with a 1-2 pitch, Garcia made a strong play on Hunter's slow roller to second to end the frame.
Quintana finished with six strikeouts and two walks over 114 pitches and seven innings, which wasn't a bad total considering he threw 33 pitches in the first inning. For a single-season franchise record 17th time, Quintana finished with a no-decision.
"That doesn't affect me at all," said Quintana, who owns six career starts of at least seven innings and no runs allowed without a victory in any of them. "It was a close game. We faced a very good pitcher. I don't control the results. I control what I go out and do."
Rookie Jake Petricka pitched out of a two-on, one-out jam in the top of the ninth by inducing a Cabrera double play grounder, and Joaquin Benoit pitched a perfect ninth for his 18th save and 18th straight. Ultimately, the wins and losses don't matter as much as the talent evaluation to the White Sox (58-87) at this point.
Aside from another stellar Quintana effort, the three hits, two stolen bases and solid defense from Garcia at second stood as the main attraction.
"You can see his speed and what it brings to the table," Ventura said of Garcia, a switch-hitter who hit right-handed on Wednesday because of an open blister on his left hand. "He had a couple of balls that he put on the ground that he beat out and stolen base, a couple of good plays defensively."
"I want to show what I've got," Garcia said through Diaz. "Today was the day that I showed flashes of what I can do."

As the title says..."what's your favourite question to ask a theist"?
You may have many favourites...I would like to hear from you guys about yours.
I have a personal favourite which I often use when they start spouting their spew that GOD wrote the bible at the beginning of time, he created everything....
"OK. If GOD wrote the BIBLE at the beginning of time like you say...some 14.5 BILLION, that's BILLION years ago, What language was it written in?"
Most theists I know don't even know what language JESUS spoke. It's sad really.
Another of my favourites is this one...
"Why did it take GOD 10 BILLION years to make the planet EARTH and then a further 4.5 BILLION years to make MAN?"
There's always a spewy reply of some sort or another which usually gets my goat and the theist is appalled at my outburst of laughter.
So come on you guys....let 'em have it....share your ammo with us.

am having a good laugh. guys are creative
What theist believes that the Bible was written 14.5 billion years ago? You are using the most biggest straw man I've ever heard of... ever.
Actually I don't think any of them do. To be honest with you. Until you put the numbers on it. They seem to have the ability to discard or perhaps not even recognise the scientific data.
I feel that's pretty much what they imply with their beliefs.
I find it a fun time explaining that there are believers of some sort gathering the data, not a bunch of god haters and devil work, and the numbers speak for themselves. It's human discovery.
I have asked it that way because it's my understanding that Scientists have guesstimated the universe to be that old...which he apparently created (thus would be the beginning of time)....and Earth to be around 4.5 billion years....which he apparently also created and then another long long time to create man.
I may be a little off with the actual numbers. It's still a long time.
I've heard claims that god wrote the bible in the beginning. Also that he told it to someone who wrote it for him...and various other unsubstantiated claims in my time.
I am 44 and the only atheist I know. My whole life has been spent on this side of the fence. I'm not a convert of any sort
I have questioned everyone of their faith. None have proven their creators' existence.
I don't see why you think I'm the one using a straw man?? I hold zero beliefs.
Atheists think differently I guess. And we all disbelieve in our own way. Still doesn't mean there's a god.
I like to ask them to explain life after death, considering that everything you know, everything that makes you you is recorded in the synapses of the brain. When your brain is dead, you are dead.
Where exactly is the spirit? How come doctors haven't found it yet?
Hell, if people can catch ghosts on shitty Wal-Mart camcorders, doctors should have no problem finding the spirit!
Also, why are we twisted with sin? Because the loving god created it, and let us be tricked and become twisted, and then commanded us to be well?
And how exactly will life be similar to now? Which rules will apply? Will we go back to the bronze age ignorance of the Old Testament, or will we each get to be in our own room/world like in that American Dad Christmas special?
Also, how do you know what life after physical death is like? Who came back to tell you?
@Milos - RE: "Who came back to tell you?" - Don't you KNOW he's gonna say, "Jesus"? Doesn't take much to see THAT coming --
I like simply to ask what justification they can provide for their beliefs. I tend to avoid questions that put people into an extreme defensive modes, though as many people have demonstrated here, the inconsistency and illogic of religion provides plenty of opportunities to frame questions that presuppose the ridiculousness of the answer. The justifications question, while it doesn't lead to many particularly laughable one-liners, is often more revealing in the long run. People feel comfortable enough answering it that they usually draw themselves out in a way I wouldn't otherwise know how to do; as it is, I usually end up asking some innocuous question or other that lets them know I'm not accepting their BS at face value, and they clam up instantly. For example, I asked a friend, after he'd explained that his beliefs made him feel comfortable in a way that no other beliefs did, what bearing this had on the veracity of those beliefs, and that conversation was over faster than I would have thought possible.
The interesting thing is that most people seem to be talking themselves through it as they go, not ever having questioned their belief too much. The very process of talking leads them down one of several logical paths, and it's interesting to see which category of believer they land themselves in. Where I live, in an area predominated by Mormons, it's easy enough for most people to stick to what they believe are the facts, telling me about the foundation of the church and it's history as re-imagined by its early 20th century leaders, as if I've never heard it before, and as if it weren't all transparently bunk. People of a minority religion, or even those mormons who have spent time in more diverse areas, often revert to the 'I feel it in my soul', 'it gives me peace' etc. forms of justification, indicating they've faced some level of criticism of the 'it's all BS' variety and not known how to respond to it on a factual level. Even better are the responses of the smartest, best-educated of believers, who often stoop immeadiately to abstract, social and (sometimes) quasi-marxist justifications: 'it gives people something to live for', 'it helps us stick together as a caring society', 'it promotes family values and morality', 'it establishes a set of rules and incentives' etc. How these differ from the more cynically-worded quotation from Marx, 'Religion is the opiate of the masses', is beyond me. It fascinates me that these upstanding, well-educated people to whom others in the religious community look as an example of the virtue of faith have such transparently shallow and unscrupulous reasoning for their beliefs, reasoning which often seems to implicitly admit the faultiness of the beliefs themselves.
I realize that my rambling run-ons are not the type of invective, sharp-witted humour you were probably looking for in this question, but I gurantee that if you start asking people this question you'll gain a whole new respect for the deep irony and black humour of religious belief.
not at all sir.
In fact quite the opposite. That's a very good post you make. A perfect contribution to the thread.
My intention was not to create a god humour thread. However it has manifested to quite as much.
I was literally looking for SERIOUS input. Which as funny as it all reads...it is effectively so.
RE: "Everyone is selfish."
I agree, just look at the first paraphrased three of the ten commandments:
Talk about selfish!
RE: "We cannot follow God's laws (I challenge any of you to try it for a week)."
You were absolutely RIGHT! I don't know how I ever doubted you! I tried following god's laws for a week, and it changed my life FOREVER!
Last Saturday, I told the kids, no cartoons until they cleaned their rooms - naturally, they cursed me, so I killed them!
Exodus 21:17, Leviticus 20:9 - "...he that curseth his father, or his mother, shall surely be put to death."
Last Sunday, my inconsiderate next-door neighbor started mowing his lawn at seven in the morning, just when I was recovering from a hangover from celebrating killing my kids, so I killed him!
Exodus 31:12-15 - "...keep the Sabbath day, for it is holy. Anyone who desecrates it must die;...."
Last Monday, I took a date to a carnival that had come into town (the kids used to love the rides so much, I almost wished I hadn't killed them). When I discovered that one of the acts was a fortune-teller, I killed her!
Leviticus 20:27 - "A man or a woman who acts as a medium or fortuneteller shall be put to death by stoning; they have no one but themselves to blame for their death."
Last Tuesday, I discovered that the two guys in the apartment above me, that I thought were just roommates, were actually gay, so I killed them!
Leviticus 20:13 - ""If a man lies with a male as with a women, both of them shall be put to death for their abominable deed; they have forfeited their lives."
Wednesday night, I went to church, just to be on the safe side, but I overheard a conversation between the preacher's daughter and one of her teen-age girlfriends, that she was doing the captain of the high school football team, so I drug her out into the parking lot, doused her with gasoline, lit a match and, giggling, ran like hell!
Leviticus 21:9 - "A priest's daughter who loses her honor by committing fornication and thereby dishonors her father also, shall be burned to death."
Yesterday (Thursday), I discovered that a quiet, unobtrusive, little, old Oriental lady down the street worshiped Buddha, so I calmly strolled down the block and killed her!
Deuteronomy 17:2-5 - "Suppose a man or woman among you, in one of your towns that the LORD your God is giving you, has done evil in the sight of the LORD your God and has violated the covenant by serving other gods or by worshiping the sun, the moon, or any of the forces of heaven, which I have strictly forbidden. When you hear about it, investigate the matter thoroughly. If it is true, then that man or woman must be taken to the gates of the town and stoned to death."
(Well, to be honest, our town really doesn't have any gates, just a toll booth before you get on the highway, so I just pounded her head again and again with a rock, until she quit breathing - I hope god doesn't get mad at me for changing the rules just a little --)
Which brings us to today - I had noticed that for some time now, the guy who cleans our apartment swimming pool never comes until after the guy upstairs goes to work, then he knocks on the door, and the guy's wife lets him in. Now I had previously decided that that was none of my business, but armed with my new religious awareness, I dutifully went upstairs and stabbed them both!
Leviticus 20:10 - "If a man commits adultery with another man's wife, both the man and the woman must be put to death."
As I said, living a week by god's laws has REALLY changed my life - I've just been arrested for multiple counts of murder - I don't suppose there's anything you can do to get me out of this?
Speaking for myself, I have better things to do. I really need to rearrange my sock drawer.
I'll pass - I have a life to live.
@Paul - RE: "You seem to know many bible verses, but you don't know much about the bible."
Actually Paul, while I can't say for certain that I know more about the Bible than you do, I can certainly say that I know more about SOME parts of the Bible than you appear to. You seem, from what I've observed, to base your opinions on the opinions of others, whose professional job it is to put as much positive spin of the gross discrepancies of the Bible as possible.
These are fond of saying things like, "Oh sure, I know it SAYS that, but that's really not what it means - it means (and here is added whatever it takes to turn a negative into a positive)."
I suggest you REALLY open your mind and read the Bible as a literal work, because I've no doubt that that's the way it was intended by those who originally wrote it. Read those 3000-year old words with the mind of a 21st Century man, armed with Newtonian and Einsteinian physics, and if your mind is TRULY open, you'll find yourself muttering, "WTF?!" over and over again.
Knowing that the definition of a day, involves the rotation of the earth before the sun, read how the sun wasn't created until the fourth day, then ask how the first, second and third "days" could have been days. Read how Abe sent his servant with ten camels, to bring back a 19-year old bride for 60-year old Ike, in +/-1800 BCE, and then discover through research that camels weren't domesticated until about 700 BCE.
I'm sure you can find an "expert" out there, willing to testify that Honest Abe, who pimped out his 65-year old wife for fear of his life (like anyone would kill him for her), was somehow "God's favorite," and because of this, was ahead of his time and domesticated camels 1000 years before everyone else. SOMEone out there has got a spin on it somewhere, all you have to do is find it, read it, and say to yourself, "So, I was right all along - the Bible truly is the word of god --" (Hint - it's called confirmation bias!)
RE: "We don't need those laws anymore because God has given us the holy spirit who gives us the ability to do good."
Matthew 4:17-18 --
"Think not that I am come to destroy the law or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill.
"For verily I say unto you, Til heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled."
So according to the words of your own savior, all of those jots and tittles are still in full effect --

Software-defined networking is on more companies' radars, but remains a couple of years from becoming a mainstream technology strategy, according to a recent report.
Enterprise Strategy Group's "The Evolving State of the Network," which drew upon a survey of more than 300 IT professionals responsible for evaluating, purchasing and managing networking technologies, found that two-thirds of enterprises and midsize companies polled are committed to SDN as a long-term strategy.
Where they are in that commitment varies greatly, however. The biggest chunk -- 39 percent -- is in the planning and evaluation stage, while 27 percent have actually begun implementations. Another 24 percent say they're interested but have no SDN initiatives underway, while just 10 percent either have no interest or are not familiar enough with SDN to have a position.
That 90 percent of respondents are at least interested in SDN, which promises to make networks more flexible and agile by separating the function of traffic control from network hardware, is a strong indicator that the technology is about to arrive in a big way.
