My Problem
My sons dropped out iPad several times and it survived amazingly well until the last straw and then the display cracked.
My Fix
The repair went fine--about 90 minutes. Only confusing thing are those many small foam spacers which are semi-attached and I'm not sure which, if any, I'm supposed to keep. The instructions were silent about these little items. It appears the new unit comes with spacers, so I cleaned them out, but the instructions should probably make explicit mention of them.
Also, the instructions tell you to start prying in the upper right corner which is where the power button is and it seems like it's possible to mess up the power button with the metal spudger when digging around up there for the first time.
My Advice
This repair looks daunting, but don't be afraid. I would recommend a pair of angled tweezers to help guide the connectors back into the sockets when reassembling. They're a bit hard to reach with just fingers because you can't just open it all the way up--you have to hold it half-way closed for the connectors to reach the sockets.
As with all such things, read the instructions all the way to the end before starting!

I also love these posters by Seattle artist Amber Calo and Rick Goral at Seattle Show Posters.
I killed my TVs a year ago (money's tight.) I have had more time for things, but the only thing on Aardvark's manifesto that matches what I've spent the time on is "grow your community." I spend the rest of my "extra" time decorating. Viva AT!
It's good to be reminded. Here's my fave from Canadian artist Eva Juliet:
Whoops - take two :)
Yee Haw is outstanding! I'm lucky enough to live in Knoxville - and I pass them every time I stroll down Gay Street.
Skidamarink?? It's skinnamarink according to Sharon, Lois and Bram, thank you very much.
Oh, alright, apparently there are different lyrics. Still, that poster would always look "wrong" to me. :)
@cdanojohnson I live in Knoxville too! I agree, I'm so lucky to be able to walk down the street to shop at Yee Haw. They're good folks.
@themoderngal Well, howdy neighbor!
keep it wonky! yeah!
I bought this print several times - one for my mom, one for my house, one for my desk. It never fails to bring a smile.
I love the aardvark manifesto, bike and be free, and you are my sunshine. All very cute!
@greatkate haha...you're not the only one with lyrics 'problems', I always thought it was skinnamarinky dinky dink, LOL!
Love feel-good posters! Here's a "Love Lives Cozy Here" option,

Fargo Police are questioning a 16-year-old after allegedly sexually assaulting a minorFargo, ND (WDAY TV) - Fargo police are questioning a 16-year-old boy after an early morning sexual assault of a minor.
By: WDAY Staff Reports, WDAY
Fargo, ND (WDAY TV) - Fargo police are questioning a 16-year-old boy after an early morning sexual assault of a minor.
A report came in around 6:30 a.m. When a thirteen year old girl says she was on her way to a friend's house to catch a ride to school.
That's when the attack allegedly happened along Oak Street and sixth avenue north in Fargo.
The 16 year-old male was in the area when police arrived.
Officials say the two most likely know each other, but are continuing to further investigate.
Lt. Joel Vettel/Fargo Police Department: "that's very common when we have a situation especially involving juveniles. We make sure we detain and obviously be in contact with the family, with the parents and once we've done that we try and conduct the interviews and the entire investigation as quickly as possible."
Tonight, the victim's father reached out to the Forum saying the 13-year-old is physically okay but emotionally will have a road to travel down.

Report: Celtics' Kevin Garnett might be thinking about retirement
Rejuvenated after moving to center in the middle of the season, Boston Celtics star Kevin Garnett would seem an unlikely candidate to retire, even though he has 17 years' worth of tread on his tires.
However, a league source who knows Garnett well tells Steve Aschburner of NBA.com (note: Aschburner worked at the Minneapolis Star-Tribune during Garnett's T-Wolves days) that he thinks Garnett might be ready to hang up his high tops.
"I think that's what we've been seeing in these playoffs," the source said. "The way he's been playing, it's like he wants to go out on his terms."
Garnett just turned 36 two weeks ago, but since he entered the league straight out of high school, his body has taken significantly more pounding than the typical 36-year-old.
A throwaway line in a piece by Boston.com columnist Tony Massarotti also hints at the possibility that Garnett might be ready to go. Massarotti wrote: "The Celtics can cut ties with Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett can retire …"

1. Time to go out West, Tennessee? That's the argument made by columnist John Adams, saying that "everywhere Tennessee turns in the Southeast, it's running into flourishing programs: Georgia, South Carolina, Alabama, Florida, even Ole Miss now. California is a different ballgame. There, you're competing with Pac-10 schools. There, you would stand out."
2. Jeremy Johnson is headed to Auburn after being named Mr. Football in the state of Alabama. The Carver-Montgomery product is also a candidate for the state's Mr. Basketball Award, a twin-feat that no one has ever accomplished. Johnson's high school football coach Billy Gresham: "He's incredibly competitive, he's a great passer, he sees the whole court very well, which I think is something he gets from being a quarterback."
3. High expectations for Florida's class this fall. ESPN's Edward Aschoff says "the pressure is on five freshmen receivers who signed this year." by Will Muschamp and staff. "If none of them set themselves apart, the Gators could be in real trouble this fall."
4. Vanderbilt basketball's loss could be Tennessee's gain. Darius Thompson committed to Vandy last month but now he's decided to re-open the process. The first team to visit the 6-foot-4 point guard? A member of the Tennessee staff was at Thompson's school in Murfreesboro, TN on Wednesday. Thompsons' father tells the Nashville Tennessean: "It's wide open right now," saying he expects his son to sign with an SEC or ACC school.
5. How SEC dominance has changed the recruiting dynamic in the state of Texas.

Who do you think will win the WAG All Around at London 2012?
Aliya Mustafina
Viktoria Komova
Anastasia Grishina
Jordyn Wieber
Gabrielle Douglas
Alexandra Raisman
Kyla Ross
Larisa Iordache
Yao Jinnan
Jiang Yuyuan
Deng Linlin
Who do you think will win the WAG All Around at London 2012?
I voted for Aliya. Love this girl and I am so looking forward to her Komova, Iordache, Weiber, and Douglas fighting it out for gold.
Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none. William Shakespeare
I just have this feeling - and have for a while - that this is Jordyn's.
I'm really hoping for Mustafina.
'Life's hard. It's even harder when you're stupid.'--John Wayne
Komova. I think Wieber will be 2nd, and Iordache or Mustafina 3rd.
Wieber is pretty much a lock I am sorry to say, as I am not even a fan of hers. She will stamp herself the virtually undisputed greatest American gymnast ever by becoming the first American to ever win both World and Olympic AA gold, something which Miller, Johnson, Liukin, Patterson, Retton, Zmeskal, Memmel, Dawes, all attempted but failed to do. Silver and bronze are wide open amongst 7 or more girls.
I decided to vote for Aly Raisman. Hehehehehehe.
At this point I do feel Jordyn has the best chance of winning, but she's going up against two extremely gifted Russian gymnasts who will not make it easy for her. IMO Aliya and Viktoria are the two most talented AAers in the world right now and I'd be happy if either of them won.
But if everyone else caves under the immense pressure, Aly will be the one to still hit. And I can't remember which person said they'd laugh if she ended up winning, but I'll be cackling with them if she does.
Why can't I vote for more than one?
I voted Mustafina because that's who I want to win. I can't wait to watch her battle it out with Iordache, Komova and Wieber.
I wouldn't mind Douglas making the AA podium, but that's a looooooong shot.
I can't vote. Honestly I can't, lol. I love Iordache, Komova, Mustafina, Jinnan, Deng Linlin and Quishuang. I like Douglas.
I am guessing:
I think if Douglas hits she could be 2nd (or even win if Komova has a mistake) but I don't know if I see her hitting 4 solid routines during the Olympic AA.
"Michelle would never be caught with sausage grease staining her Vera Wang." - rfisher
Komova will win if she hits. The Wieber hype is making me very dreary.
Hoping for a Komova, Douglas, Mustafina/Wieber podium.
I don't even know who I want to win. I want both Komova and Mustafina to win AA, and I want both US and Russia to win team.
I think I will have a snack and take a nap before I eat and go to sleep.
I prefer the lean-slender Russians or Chinese to muscular Mighty-Mite Americans, so I'm with KOMOVA (voted for her here) and the Chinese Ladies! Had McKayla Maroney been eligible for the All Around, I would have been rooting for that American to win because she is a beauty.
Secret Wish: That Mustafina would also be in contention. Loved her at 2010 Worlds.
Only 2 votes for Iordache. I am kind of surprised given the hype around her lately. I do concur however as with no Amanar and a lame bars set which scores much lower than even Wieber, she really doesnt have much hope at this point though. Raisman even probably has a better shot, she has an Amanar which gives her a points edge on vault, her bars is about the same, her beam is only a little behind Iordache, and their floors are about the same and both will be fighting for floor gold. Iordache needs an Amanar to even beat a hit Raisman probably, not that Raisman is even likely to be in AA finals with the 2 country rule.
Wieber can score over 15 on bars. Iordache can barely score over 14 on bars. How is that similar.

- Tube Sock – White
- Cotton Balls
- Scissors
- Marker – Black
- String
- Yarn
- Rubber Bands
- Cardboard Square, 4"
Project Instructions
Step 1 Stuff a white tube sock with cotton balls up to the heel. Insert a dowel rod and continue stuffing the sock with cotton balls until there is about 3"-4" of the cuff left unstuffed.
Step 2 Tie a piece of string tightly around the cuff to hold the rod in place.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
The storage market is a highly competitive and, at times, complicated space for the enterprise with plenty of choice and a vast array of products. That can make finding the right solution difficult. Fundamentally, for many small and medium businesses, the choice comes down to either Storage Area Network (SAN) or Network Attached Storage devices and solutions.
The bottom line is, of course, affordability without missing out on scalability, reliability and high-performance – the power to deliver and store data securely.
And that's where Synology's new RackStation RS2414RP+ solution fits right in. This 12-bay rackmount server is a full-featured, cost effective, NAS solution for SMBs that is armed with an impressive operating system (OS) and plenty of built-in safety and data protection.
The key is not only the savings associated with a NAS solution but also Synology's DSM (DiskStation Manager) 4.3 Web-based OS aimed at increasing productivity. Its predecessor, DSM 4.2, won dual awards at Computex 2013.
DSM 4.3 offers full support for Active Directory and LDAP, a suite of added-value applications that help facilitate business daily life, flexible administrative options, and tools to secure DiskStation and valuable data.
The OS integrates with existing infrastructure, offers different ways to access data, and has a comprehensive data protection scheme. This ensures high-level efficiency and productivity. And what business doesn't want that!
The DSM 4.3 has five key business features:
So RS2414RP+ ticks the box on OS functionality. Now let's have a look of some of the technical highlights. Firstly, it's quick. With Link Aggregation enabled, the server delivers an average 339.63 MB/sec reading speed under RAID 5 configuration in a Windows environment, and 209.14 MB/sec writing. That's high-performance in anybody's language.
The RS2414RP+ has four LAN ports which provide redundancy in the event of unexpected hardware failure. Hot swappable drives also help to minimise system downtime during drive replacement. And it doesn't get hot: The unit is equipped with passive CPU cooling technology. The last thing any business wants, of course, is for its servers to go down – the outcome can be disastrous. Unfortunately, according to Synology many businesses are still unprepared for disaster.
To help counter this the RS2414RP+ carries Synology High Availability (SHA) which ensures seamless transition between clustered servers in the event of server failure and minimal impact to applications.
In addition, the RS2414RP+ comes with redundant power supplies to help ensure system reliability. Basically, each power supply is capable of powering the entire computer and only one runs at a time. If one fails, the other starts running to keep the computer powered up. The switch between the power supplies is seamless, so it doesn't interrupt normal computer use. All up, this minimises the chance of complete computer shutdown or failure.
And, importantly, the RS2414RP+ is scalable - right up to 96TB with the company's RX1214RP. Finally, thanks to the Internet Small Computer System Interface (iSCSI) support in DSM 4.3, the unit provides storage solutions for virtualisation environments, including those of VMware, Citrix, and Microsoft.
iSCSI storage allows users to leverage existing network equipment and connect servers and workstations to DiskStation in a virtual environment. This means reduced management complexity by having a centralised storage pool and also boosts server performance and efficiency because tasks relating to storing data are offloaded.
Synology's RS2414RP+ is a great addition to the company's core play in the SMB space and well worth investigating.
RRP: $3299 (GST included)

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Pars Oil & Gas Company announces Iran and Pakistan start gas talks in Islamabad
Wednesday, Feb 20, 2013Iran and Pakistan oil officials have started negotiations on Iran- Pakistan gas pipeline in Islamabad.
According to Shana, the first round of gas talks has started today morning between Iranian minister of petroleum, Rostam Qasemi and Asem Hosain, advisor to Pakistan PM on energy and natural resources.
Iranian minister of petroleum is also to visit Pakistan's prime minister and the president of the country to deliver Iranian president message to his Pakistani counterpart.
Heading an 8 member high ranking delegation, Iranian minister of petroleum arrived in Islamabad yesterday.
The two sides negotiations are focused on extending a 500 million dollars credit by Iran for construction of IP gas line in Pakistan territory while Pakistan will provide the reminder of costs through taxes.
The two sides have already agreed on forming a joint venture for construction of the pipeline in Pakistan territory.
Under a gas contract between the two countries, Islamic Republic of Iran will start delivery of 21.5 million cubic meters of gas per day (7.8 billion dollars annually) as of 2014.
while Pakistan should lay down 700 kilometers of pipeline inside its territory, Iran should extend its gas pipeline by 300 kilometers from Iranshahr city, southeast of the country, to Chabahar port, a point in the border with Pakistan.

text: f/4.0 is going to be pretty slow as well, you will be able to get twice the shutter speed (or be able to use half the ISO) to get the same result with a f/2.8 versus a f/4.0. If you can swing the f/2.8, I would highly recommend it. The f/2.8 will also have a better chance of focusing as it is giving the AF sensors twice the amount of light to work with.

Twitter retweet analysis
sep 21st
With Professor Lars Kai Hansen I am presently looking into retweeting on Twitter. A 2010 scientific article Want to be retweeted? Large scale Analytics on factors impacting retweet in Twitter network by Suh, Hong, Pirolli and Ed H. Chi, examined what the variables hashtag, "@", number of followers, number of followees, age of account, number of tweets, number of favorited tweets and number of tweets have of effect on whether a tweet is retweets.
The article also points to Dan Zarrella's previous writings. He has a blog as well as the slides The Science of ReTweets. Zarrella reports (on page 11 in the slides) statistics on the fraction of retweets with URLs and it is well over 50%, Suh & Co. writes it to be 56.69% to be exacts.
This fraction does not fit with what Suh & Co. find. They say only 28.4% of retweets have URLs.
To investigate this discrepancy I looked into the tweets I had downloaded. The tweets were downloaded with the streaming method provided by Twitter that I heard of through Bjarne Ørum Wahlgreen. I am furthermore using the MongoDB noSQL database for storing at the moment (I used SQLite before). It means that you can write the downloading and storing in one Unix line which is (with a tip from Eliot):
curl http://stream.twitter.com/1/statuses/sample.json -u:USER:PASSWORD | mongoimport -d twitter -c tweets
I have only a bit above 330'000 tweets in my database at the moment, but my results align better with Suh & Co than with Zarrella. The result depends on the matching of a retweet. For my most broadest I get 25.2%.
Furthermore, I find that the fraction of tweets with URLs is 19.1% which is in alignment with both Zarella and Suh & Co that both report around 20%. I find the fraction of retweets to the total to be in the range 9-16%.
The detailed results are here:
Total 330000 100.0% With URLs 62901 19.1% Retweet 52633 15.9% of total Retweet with URLs 13239 4.0% of total 25.2% of retweets 21.0% of tweets with URLs
Suh & Co. found that hashtags were associated with increased retweeting. On a blog one of the authors writes "Want to be Retweeted? Add Hashtags to Your Tweets!". I doubt that the causal relationship is that simple. I think it is more likely that a common effect (e.g., that the tweet is informative and well-written) causes the tweet to get hashtag(s) and be retweeted.
Did bloggers bring down the German president?
jun 11th
The role of the main stream media in Germany as the 4th power of state, was recently aided by the 5th(?), namely the bloggers, as the German president resigned after some questionable statements in an interview.
In the interview, aired on May 22, Koehler appeared to imply that military operations like in Afghanistan were, in part, commercially motivated and necessary to protect Germany's economic interests.
"[A] country of our size with its … export dependency should also know that, if in doubt, in an emergency, a military engagement is also necessary to defend our interests, for example free trade routes," he told Deutschlandfunk.
The story was largely ignored by the mainstream media, but a number of bloggers started debating the story, including Jonas Schaible of unpolitik.de, which only hit the mainstream media after Schaible wrote a piece for Der Spiegel online. This was over a week after the interview first aired.
Robocare hoax?
jun 1st
Danish newspapers boast large adds from Robocare seemingly marketing new high tech robots that can replace human care in homes for the elderly.
Speculations abound that the campaign is a hoax, see for example the Amino blog. The contact address is fake and the company website is owned by a media company Wasabi.
Today I checked the Robocare press release pdf-file. The owner of the document is Mette Stuhr from Wasabi, so there maybe something to this hoax theory…Wasabi is used by the Danish Union FOA organizing personnel in the public care sector … and maybe robot hijacker?
June 6, 2010: Social workers' union FOA has launched a second wave of ads confirming the ownership of Robocare.
BP's Global PR spill
maj 29th
According to a recent post at The Brandbuilder Blog BP has been unable to control the Global PR leak in Twitter and seems to have accepted the impersonator. The BP brand – including logo – is hijacked and turned into a bitter joke featuring tweeds like: Proud to announce that BP will be sponsoring the New Orleans Blues Festival this summer w/ special tribute to Muddy Waters.
Sentiment analysis
maj 26th
One part of large scale reputation management is to be able to automatically assess the public opinion. We believe that we need automated tools to analyse the myriads of statements found in social media. Luckily the natural language processing research community has been focused on this problem in recent years.
The area is usually referred to as sentiment analysis or opinion mining, and covers tasks such as detecting sentences that utter opinions, assessing whether an opinion is positive or negative, and summarization of opinions. Bo Pang has written a nice survey of the field: Opinion mining and sentiment analysis, which is freely downloadable.
The field has recently moved to new and important tasks such as sarcasm detection, which was presented in a paper last week at the International AAAI Conference on Weblogs and Social Media.

Does reputation Matter- Value Destruction following the Tiger Woods Scandal
apr 26th
In recent years there have been a lot of publications claiming to establish a link between reputation and monetary values. A number of publications have suggested that changes in corporate reputation have a noticeable effect on financial values. However such studies are prone with difficulties. For example, it is often difficult to establish to what extent price movements on financial markets depend on changes in reputation and to what extent they depend on other factors. The ideal case is an event where something significant happens and where it is easy to established the 'before' and 'after'. Recently two American economists have conducted such an analysis on the aftermath of the Tiger Woods scandal. Comparing the performance of the shares of the companies that sponsored Tiger Woods with average returns for the market as a whole and those of competitors, they estimate that Tiger Woods behaviour created a negative reputational asset that managed to destroy $ 5 to 12 billion of shareholder wealth in the period between Tiger Wood's car crash and his announcement of an 'indefinite leave' form golf.

Human Randomness
mar 28th
Free will is considered a hallmark of humanity. The ultimate exercise in free will is to create true randomness: You decide when and nobody can predict you. Can humans be random if they want to?
Mathematically randomness is defined as a process with some degree of unpredictability. The simplest random process being so-called white noise processes in which there is no information in the present state about the future: Prob( future | past )= Prob( future ). The statement reads: The probability of the future given the past is equal to the probability of the future.
In physics true randomness only takes place at the quantum level, where e.g. the decay of an unstable isotope is modeled as a random process. So-called deterministic chaos 'looks unpredictable'; except if you happen to know the underlying dynamics and can compute with very high precision. High-dimensional chaotic processes, e.g., systems at a temperature, are best approximated as random, although the unpredictability here may really be a result of limited memory or computer power. When we physically flip a coin the assumption is that the dynamics is so complicated and high-dimensional (requires massive computation) that we can rely on the outcome being unpredictable.
Randomness is often used to simulate complex processes in computers. So-called Monte Carlo processes are getting more and more popular for evaluation of important high-dimensional integrals in Bayesian statistics. In the computer pseudo-random numbers are typically created by deterministic chaos-like algorithms.
Why would a human aim for randomness? Well, unpredictability can be useful in certain types of games like in poker – when to bluff? Or in football – where to place the penalty kick? Generally speaking, whenever we want keep our intensions secret to opponents, we would like to be random. Although useful when there is a conflict of interest, there is nothing inherently un-ethical about randomness, c.f., the most ethical deed of all, the 'random act of kindness'. But the problem facing when we want benefit a random good cause is that mostly there is no possibility to flip a coin. So the question is: Can humans flip a mental coin and exercise ultimate free will? The short answer is no!
Humans are not really good at randomness. In a 1972 meta-analysis by carried out by Wagenaar, 14 out of 15 studies report significant deviations from randomness in human generated random sequences. A typical problem facing the free willing human is the so-called negative recency effect. Our random sequences are too regular. Imagine that you are asked to place ten points at random positions in an interval. Your solution would show negative recency if you choose to put them at roughly equal distance. It is like you want them to be too random. But in a real random Poisson point process, some points should be quite close and other more distant. Another problem for human randomness, is lack of memory and boredom which both lead to an over abundance of repeated patterns.
It seems it takes a superhuman effort to produce true randomness. In Daniel Dennett's book 'Freedom Evolves' free will is based on un-consciuous randomness and unequivocally denounced as an illusion. While human freedom is indeed rapidly evolving, Dennett can only allow the notion of a free will to be considered a useful metaphor or model of human behavior. Our in-ability to actively produce randomness can be seen as another manifestation of Dennett's insight.

Cody Ross agrees to three-year deal with Arizona Diamondbacks

05:25 PM ET 12.22 | The Arizona Diamondbacks continued to stay busy this off-season signing outfielder Cody Ross to a three-year deal worth $26 million. The 32-year-old comes to Arizona after playing last season in Boston, where he hit .267 with 22 home runs and 81 RBIs. Ross is a career .262 hitter in nine major league seasons. The versatile Ross has played all three outfield positions during his career and has catalogued time as a designated hitter which could help Arizona during Interleague play.
Those numbers are sure to come back down without the Monster to help turn routine fly balls into doubles.

ok....next deal.

rangers are about to trade for the d'backs outfielder ,,,KUBEL!!!
cody ross would bring versatility in the d'backs lineup, should KUBEL and ROSS use agressive approach on every at bat??? this two guys could become the next bash brothers except no roids allowed!!!
ok....next deal.
the rangers have plenty options,, they could trade for ellsbury or, trade for justin upton, or trade for KUBEL or, sign bourn to a 5 years 125 millions deal!!!
Those numbers are sure to come back down without the Monster to help turn routine fly balls into doubles.
cody ross should use the videos from the green monster as a motivation in every game played in the road,the d'backs would likely giving a poisonless cobra to make ross run a little faster!!!
the padres are waiting for either the dodgers or the rangers to throw them a offer for any top starter, should rangers missout bad any top deal?? take a pick in the national west!!!!
and the next prospects collector is???the royals? the jays? no!! the rangers all the way home!!
the royals are a tough team, in fact royals do have better rotation than the devastated angels rotation, unless the halos would be able to trade vernon wells for hellickson and chris archer, not bad uhh??
the red sox DO need and R,B,I MACHINE BUT WHO??
the red sox DO need and R,B,I MACHINE BUT WHO??
bourn??doubtfull, this guy its well known but for his speed but can't hit 40 homeruns though...
angels would likely feel the pressure from every angle in the big leagues, should pujols continue his passivity in the plate?? hamilton would need to swing less balls and make contact more often in his years with the halos,,,
angels could be punchless without morales but then again, what team can overcome a weak rotation?? we still needed another starter the rapid drop in speed on hanson arm could signal red lights in halos rotation no kidding!!
unless the angels use 3 regular starters as follows,,weaver/CJ wilson/ vargas/ blaton?? and about richards?? we would need all the help we can get for sure!!!
Pesky Pole& the Monster got him all that. SF had dropped him like a bad habit. He got greedy and thought he was replacing the BIG PAPI. OH HEEEELLLL NNNNOOOO!!!!!!!!!
Those numbers are sure to come back down without the Monster to help turn routine fly balls into doubles.
He did have a swing tailor made for Fenway. I was surprised that the Red Sox played hardball with Ross and opted for Gomes and Victorino instead.

Evelyn from Boston
I ruined my original pan (too hot and burnt sugar) so I was so happy to get a replacement at such a great price. I love it!!
Best purchase we've made all year
Ama from Champaign, IL
Perfect! Perfect! Used it for everything from quiche to roasts-for-two to, of course, tarte tatin. Our (not yet remodeled) kitchen has electric burners and this is the only cookware I've found that can do a good tarte tatin on those. Worth three times the price.
I love this pan, it works beautifully.

High gloss enamel finish will turn loose of anything you cook in it. Never sticks, even carmalized sugar wipes right off.

What is Pharyngitis?
Often referred to as a sore throat, acute pharyngitis is a painful inflammation of the pharynx (the area that joins the nasal cavity and the oral cavity to the larynx) in the throat region. 'Acute' pharyngitis simply means that the condition has not persisted more than a few weeks (which would then be classified as 'chronic'). Pharyngitis occurs most commonly with a viral upper respiratory infection.
Pharyngitis symptoms may include difficulty swallowing, accompanied by a 'scratchy' and dry throat. Inside, the throat often appears swollen, red, and inflamed with or without white spots (filled with pus). It is not uncommon for a fever or cough to accompany pharyngitis.

Comments On May 30, 2012:This is a tire made for 1 trip to the sand. The entire center was worn off after 2 days of dunes. The paddles were actually ripping. However if you were going to be in rocky sand I would reccommend these because your going to throw them away after your done anyway. Tire quality definetly matches the price

Very impressed, and for the price its a great deal too. Used them in Glamis for a long weekend of hard riding and they have held up very well. Highly recommended tire. I used them on my YFZ450, and the bike turned just fine.

Letters To The Editor
Letters Of The Month
This month everyone who had their letter published is getting a Benchmade Nim Cub II knife to help them be more prepared while off-roading or in the garage. Its fixed blade is made of 154CM stainless steel and the whole thing weighs about 3 ounces, so it won't feel like much when being worn. Check it out at www.benchmade.com
Correction No. 1: Mistaken ID
I enjoyed my March issue and have read it from cover to cover. But I have a correction for Jordan May's SEMA 2010 article on Page 47, where he states John Marking's truck (from Fox Racing Shox) is an Weitzel-built F-150. It is a Chevy Silverado with a 700hp LS7, in actuality.
Chris Cuzyknski
via email
Thanks much, Chris, and our apologies. We made Jordan eat a full tube of paste for this one.
Correction No. 2: F in Math?
You guys left out the cost of the steering stabilizer in the price list for CC Rogers' fullsize Golden Eagle Cherokee on Page 55 March 2011.
Jon Allen
via email
D'oh! Man, two strikes in March! CC will have his pay docked, don't you worry. But we did check and CC would have still been under $3,000 with the stabilizer included....
Close Call!
I wanted to share these pics with you to remind people about tow strap safety. I had a little incident and am lucky as Hell to still be sitting here typing this to ya'.
We had a 75-foot cable attached to a stump that we were trying to flip over, and the end of the cable broke and gave way, letting my strap (with a clevis) act like a rubberband just about taking my head off. It missed me by maybe six inches at most.
Take care! Everyone always talks about what could happen or about old wives' tales. Well, this image speaks for itself. I can only hope readers will see these and think twice the next time they hook to something or some other truck. A little more to the left and I would have been killedit was really that close. And the part that ticks me off is that I am way too smart to do stupid stuff like that. But that's what happens: You just make mistakes sometimes in situations like that. That's when accidents happen.

We're glad to hear you're okay, Derek! And thanks for the advice. Folks, you might remember Derek's truck from our feature story in the May 2009 issue of OFF-ROAD, and as one of the Top Four Trucks of 2009 in the January 2010 issue.

My Hall of Fame ballot
Gossage has waited long enough; Raines a near-miss
Posted: Friday December 28, 2007 11:46AM; Updated: Saturday December 29, 2007 10:21PM
Enshrinement in Cooperstown shouldn't be about numbers. If anyone thinks so, let's trash tradition and have a computer select the honorees.
The Hall of Fame should be about who starred and who dominated. And about who made an impact.
It should be about greatness.
I know my annual ballot would be rejected by stat aficionados, number crunchers and many Moneyball disciples. I have one player with a .323 on-base percentage on my ballot, and another even lower, at .322. But numbers don't tell everyone's story.
Nobody's ballot is perfect. Like Roger Clemens' overzealous lawyer, I am conducting my own investigation; I need to find the eight dopes out of 545 who didn't vote for Cal Ripken Jr. last year, not to mention the two ultra-morons who DID vote for Bobby Bonilla.
It's an inexact science, to be sure, and part of the imprecision involves the few idiots who get to vote. Dante Bichette, by the way, got three votes last year.
Some may call me an idiot, as well. But one thing I have going for me is that I am old enough to have seen and followed the entire careers of 24 of 25 players on this year's ballot (I was two when Tommy John broke in so I missed some of the pre-surgery John).
That in mind, I don't feel the need to study the stat sheets too hard. I look, but I don't obsess.
I think I know who was great, who was close to great and who doesn't even belong on the ballot. Travis Fryman, anyone?
Bert Blyleven is one Cooperstown candidate who stirs a lot of emotion, sometimes from folks who barely saw him pitch and instead spent the past 10 years with their heads buried in a stat book. And there's no question he and several others on this year's ballot are very close to deserving.
On his own Web site, Blyleven suggests you look at where he ranks on all-time lists to see whether he deserves to be in the Hall of Fame. And if you go only by who amassed numbers, he probably does deserve it.
I still am unconvinced that he deserves enshrinement. But I do think he deserves an explanation.
Blyleven did some great things in his career, and he pitched a lot of dominating games. Yet he never had a truly dominating season. He threw 60 shutouts -- but won 20 games only once in an era when 20-game winners weren't nearly so rare as they are today.
Blyleven lasted a long time, long enough to have been the youngest player in the majors when he broke in as a Twin and the oldest when he bowed out as an Angel. As an Angels beat reporter in the late '80s, I was a traveling writer who covered Blyleven's last great year, when I recall him as the cutup of a surprising 1989 California Angels team. He also managed to go 17-5.
I do admire Blyleven's talent, and his longevity as well. But I still think Blyleven falls into that group of great compilers who weren't quite great enough players to make Cooperstown. Lee Smith, Harold Baines and John also fit that category -- though Blyleven's the closest of that group to making my ballot.
Beyond Blyleven, there are the Cooperstown candidates who were great for a short period of time but perhaps not for quite long enough to make the Hall of Fame, players such as Don Mattingly and Dale Murphy.
And then there's one player who fits his own special category. That's Tim Raines, who was great for the first third of his career, then hung around for 15 more years and compiled some pretty good numbers as well. I didn't vote for him his first year on the ballot. But he's one of a few cases where I reserve the right to change my mind.
And unlike Bonilla and Bichette, if Raines doesn't make it this time I am sure he will garner more than enough support to be on the ballot again next year.
I have broken the candidates on my ballot into six categories: "The Chosen'' (the six I actually did pick), "Close, but not quite Cooperstown'' (the near misses), "Close to Close'' (excellent careers but not Hall of Famers), "Nice Careers, not a Chance'' (self explanatory), "How'd they make the ballot?'' (more a question for the vetting committee) and "If not for one bad day in Washington'' (you know who).
Here's my ballot, along with my logic...
The Chosen
1. Rich Gossage. Goose has waited long enough, and if he doesn't make it this time, it's the voters who have laid an egg. One of the best relief pitchers ever, he was absolutely dominant for two Yankees championship teams. Never a doubt, at least not on my ballot.
2. Jack Morris. The ace of three World Series teams, it's an abomination he may never get in. Morris made 14 Opening Day starts, tied with Steve Carlton, Randy Johnson, Walter Johnson and Cy Young, behind only Tom Seaver's 16 (the others already are or will be in Cooperstown). Also pitched the greatest game of the past 25 years, winning Game 7 of the 1991 World Series 1-0 in 10 innings against a young John Smoltz. The only two reasons I can think of for him not making it are: 1) he got hit hard his final couple years and finished with a 3.90 ERA, and 2) he was no charmer. Neither is a good enough reason to omit him. His impact was great.
3. Andre Dawson. On ravaged knees, he made eight All-Star teams, hit 438 home runs, drove home 1,591 runs, won eight Gold Gloves and finished in the top two in MVP voting three times, winning for the last-place Cubs in 1987.
4. Rice. An absolutely dominant hitter for a decade in Boston. Like Morris, I think, Rice loses points on personality. And that's not right.
5. Dave Concepcion. This is his 15th and last year on the ballot, and he's probably going to get his usual 10 percent of the vote again. The reason I am in that 10 percent is that I think he was perhaps the best all-around shortstop of his generation and an underrated piece of the Big Red Machine. Great defender (five Gold Gloves) and superb stealer (321 stolen bases), his career looks a lot like Hall-of-Famer Phil Rizzuto's to me -- without the announcing, of course.
6. Dave Parker. He was an MVP, an All-Star Game MVP, a two-time batting champion, a seven-time All-Star and a three-time Gold Glove winner. I always figured he was a better player than Jim Rice, with more speed and a better arm, and Rice is going to get in eventually -- at least I think he will.

UNC Pelvic Health
VIDEO | One in five women undergoes urogynecologic surgery
At the recent annual meeting for the American Urogynecologic Society, UNC's Dr. Wu talked about some startling research statistics.
GYN | The URGE Trial
Study Brief | The purpose of this research study is to determine genes that affect how a person's body metabolizes a drug can help us predict how women will respond to a FDA approved medication (fesoterodine fumarate) for urgency urinary incontinence (UUI).
GYN | ACE Trial for Overactive Bladder
Study Brief | The purpose of the ACE trial is to assess cognitive function in women taking an anticholinergic medication (trospium) for the treatment of overactive bladder. This medication is FDA-approved and is not experimental. There are rare reports of changes in cognitive function when taking any anticholinergic medication for overactive bladder. The goal is to administer written cognitive function tests to measure your cognitive function before and after starting medication.
