Hi Auntie,
I was teaching in a college after my MA in English Literature and was 26 when I got married to a British man. He and his family told me that he is 36 years old. It was an arranged marriage. After coming here to London I got to know from his documents that he is 46. Moreover he is totally under the influence of his family. They always taunt me and generally hate me. I don't have the courage to reply to them and just bear it all. Because of all this I gave birth to a stillborn child in my eighth month of pregnancy. Since then I haven't been able to conceive. You cannot imagine how they treat me. Just like an object with no value. I haven't shared this with my family as I was treated like a princess in my parents' home. I belong to a middle class but highly educated family.
Dear Princess,
Next time your in-laws taunt you, why don't you muster up the courage to reply to them? Just give it right back. Just say the first thing that comes to your mind. You have to change the pattern that you have set with your in-laws. Unfortunately, it comes from years of conditioning in our society which dictates that we should respect our elders and our in-laws no matter what. Respect for others is a good thing, but there is always the odd elder and in-laws who just doesn't deserve the respect and certainly doesn't know how to handle it. From the sounds of it, your in-laws probably thought that getting a bride from Pakistan meant they would be getting an opinion-less maid with no self esteem who would do their bidding. With you writing in to a newspaper about your predicament…that's a bit of a misfire, innit? Please tell your parents about what's happening to you in the UK. If you can't talk to them on the phone, email them, but do let them know.
Ideally you should arm yourself with the contacts of the police (in case the in-laws get funny) and plan your journey back to Pakistan. If your husband doesn't give you a ticket, ask your parents to arrange for your trip back.
Hi Auntie!
I have a maternal uncle and I love him very much. Since childhood I am attached to him. Two years ago when I was 13 years old I met his friend who is in his 40s. I am 15-years old now. He gave me his cell number and asked me not to tell my uncle. I agreed because he has been my uncle's friend for 30 years. I thought him to be trustworthy. We talked for a week. After some days he started asking me if I could make him my friend and to have blind trust on him. He also said that my uncle should not know about our friendship. I asked him why he wanted to be my friend. He said that he liked me and my personality. I was suspicious because why would a 43-year old man like a 13-year old girl and why would he be influenced by her personality? I immediately informed my uncle about what was going on and how his friend gave me his number. My uncle got mad at me first and talked to his friend. My uncle scolded me as if everything was my fault. But the next day my uncle said that it's all right and I must not repeat the mistake. Then things were back to normal.
After six months that same friend of my uncle rang up on his cell phone. My uncle received the call and went outside our house. When he came back I asked him why he talked to that man and my uncle lied to me that the call didn't get through. In other words his friend was making prank calls to him. I know this is a lie. Thus I started ignoring my uncle and stopped talking to him. When he used to say salam to me I never used to reply. He used to smile at me and I used to look away. On Eid day also I greeted everyone and left him out. I personally feel bad ignoring him because I love him deeply. I was also rude to him in other ways.
My uncle is friends with that creep again. I seriously hate him. But now my uncle also ignores me. He talks to my other cousins, brings them gifts, plays jokes on them, takes their pictures with his camera and ignores me. I want my uncle to talk to me like how he talks to my other cousins and I also want him to end his friendship with that man. When I try to explain to him that I am not in the wrong and that it was his friend's fault, he takes his friend side.
Dear Loving Niece,
By ignoring your uncle you've made an already complicated situation worse. And by insisting that your uncle stop being friends with that creep you are not helping anyone. But to make things better, can you please make your love for your uncle unconditional? As in, don't insist that he leave his friend. Your uncle may see his friend for the sneak that he is. Or maybe he won't.
While Auntie agrees that the family 'friend' is more to blame for the fiasco two years ago — he was an adult and should have known better — can't you just ignore the existence of this man rather than snubbing your uncle whom you love so much. Can't you think of your uncle as an entity separate from that creep? Please don't cut off your nose to spite your face.
Auntie will not reply privately to any query. Please send concise queries to firstname.lastname@example.com

text: Politics 3 April 2008 The last Edwardian An overly cautious portrait of Harold Macmillan fails to win our sympathy <strong>Never So Good</ Sign up for our weekly email * This should have been a diabolical marriage made in heaven, the firebrand left-wing playwright on the last of the Tory grandee prime ministers, the showman politician bestriding the National's proscenium stage. At first all bodes well in Howard Brenton's Harold Macmillan biodrama. Jeremy Irons shuffles on as the older Mac lamenting that he always had trouble with his teeth: "Bad teeth in politics are not good. It got a lot worse when television came in." Eden's teeth, on the other hand, were "dazzling". He gets a big laugh, but it was actually in those first minutes I began to fear that Brenton and Irons were getting things wrong. In the first place, to niggle, Eden had not dazzling, but buck teeth. They were, according to Piers Brendon in The Decline and Fall of the British Empire (1781-1997), the subject of a joke cracked by Churchill, to the effect that he feared an outbreak of myxomatosis would leave his foreign secretary vulnerable. In the second, the speech suggests that Macmillan was uneasy in front of cameras. Yet by 1962 he was so confident on television that he began one PPB by showing the TV crew and self-deprecatingly complaining about "the camera's hot, probing eye". Brenton's Macmillan says when he became PM he had his incisors capped and learned to play the "tart"- as if that was some kind of problem to him. This is surely nonsense. Even today, it is a pleasure to watch clips of Macmillan hamming it up as the last Edwardian. Irons, however, gives a humourless interpretation that lacks Macmillan's greatest asset, his charm. Meanwhile, in his own pensionable years, the writer of The Romans in Britain and Pravda asks us not to see through Macmillan's charm but to feel for the inner man. It is never clear on what grounds Supermac deserves our sympathy. Possibly Brenton buys his mother's assessment of Harold as a communist, a gibe based on an early book in which he suggested nationalising coal and gas. In his interpretation, Mac is a pragmatist at worst, the honourable fall guy in the Profumo affair and unfairly ridiculed by the "drunk" Peter Cook. The Night of the Long Knives, in which Supermac sacked a third of the members of his cabinet, is tactfully left unmentioned. Nor is there anything about the stitching up of his friend and natural successor, Rab Butler. Macmillan will be watching from above and thinking he got off lightly. Brenton is more convincing portraying the Tory leader as psychologically damaged goods, knocked about by Nellie, his overambitious American mother (a two-dimensional Anna Carteret), and then by his wife, Dorothy, who wants to be the PM's escort yet cuckolds him for decades with Bob Boothby (good work by Robert Glenister as that nasty piece of work). "I didn't realise the role of an unfaithful wife is to sound like one's dead mother," says Macmillan, in case we had not made the comparison. As Dorothy, Anna Chancellor has a struggle explaining her strange choice of men. Bob, she says, makes her feel alive. She must have been reading some very trashy fiction. The play's main insight is that the Somme changed Mac for ever, that it knocked the stuffing out of him - though there did not seem so very much there in his Eton days - and replaced it with a survivor's feeling of unworthiness when it came to claiming his destiny. The enduring trauma of the First World War is conveyed theatrically by having Pip Carter as the young, uniformed Macmillan hang around on stage, not doing very much, through the rest of the play. Actually, this is not as clunking a device as it sounds. Nor is it, all in all, a dull night out. The familiar historical pageant is very well staged by Howard Davies, who economically whips up the Battle of the Somme and later crashes a plane on stage, leaving it ablaze. There is some good (if irrelevant) dancing, and a funny impersonation of Churchill as a giant toad by Ian McNeice. But at heart, the play is as cautious as its conclusion that Macmillan, though tarnished silver, was silver all the same and bore "the hallmark" of a "democratic politician". Only in the Suez sequence - in which we are asked to make comparisons with the Iraq invasion - does it really grip. Episodic rather than fluent, Never So Good is not so much a play of events, dear boy, events, as one damn thing after another.

The problem is that liberals/dems do not have the financial/economic knowledge and experience to get the country back on its feet... and the conservative/GOP, many of them with personal business experience and know how have been hijacked by the "tea party" (Liberal acting GOPs) who will complain and moan about spending (their basic purpose of existence), and not focus on fixing the problem (typical liberal tactic to play victim and make no suggestion on progress)...
So what the country really needs in the experience and intelligence of experienced conservatives to help with the economy... But I disagree with the article as putting inexperienced "new blood" has actually helped with the emotional rallying of voters.. So I doubt a focus of how to fix the problem would help with voters...
Teaparty minions believe that playing the victim and combating spending/unions are the issue that will help the country... When I think the intelligent minds of real conservatives know that this is not the path to making things better, only to emotionally sway voters...
"That's part of what we need to do," the Texas Republican told POLITICO.
When asked if the GOP needs to be talking more about jobs rather than purely cutting spending, Senate Minority Whip Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.) replied Thursday: "Absolutely."
"We have to remind folks about the dire situation that we're in with
the amount of spending that we've been engaged in," he said. "But it's
absolutely correct that there's a direct connection between that and job
creation, and we do need to talk about that as much as we can."
"The best way for us to make our point is for all 47 of us to go out in all of our speeches and talk about it, so you'll hear us talking about No. 1 jobs, No. 2 debt," said Senate Republican Conference Chairman Lamar Alexander, the GOP's point man on the message."
For example, they could sit down with Democrats and work out a
bipartisan plan to rebuild our aging infrastructure. They could work
with the White House to develop an approach to move forward on
developing and deploying the energy technology to sustainably fuel our
economy. Better yet, they could do both.
Doing those kinds of things would put the country back to work while
making critical investments in our future. But Republicans have no
interest absolutely no interest in doing anything constructive like
that, because ultimately, no matter how much hot air they spew, they
really are on ideological mission.

SANTA CRUZ >> The UC Santa Cruz student-run organization, Artistic Rehabilitative Therapeutic Initiative aims to prevent relapse into crime for inmates at the Santa Cruz County Jail through art therapy.
The program, founded by Sophie Hill in April 2013, conducts weekly art therapy sessions at the Santa Cruz County Jail.
When Hill attended UC Santa Cruz, she worked as a legal advocate and took a needs assessment at the Santa Cruz County Jail. The inmates strongly fought to have an art program at the jail and Hill took it upon herself to start the program.
Inmates on average are incarcerated 6.49 times, according to the ART Initiative volunteers.
In an effort to prevent crime relapse in Santa Cruz County, ART Initiative volunteers are making an effort to provide care and mental health help for those behind bars.
Lauren Parrino is a senior at UCSC and is involved with ART Initiative. She said she formed strong bonds with the inmates and she said she enjoys going back each week to develop her friendships.
"I love being able to continually connect with the inmates, the familiarity of the girls in the jail is always something to look forward to," said Parrino, 21.
The ART Initiative program provides therapy for two maximum security units and the Santa Cruz County Jail's Blaine Street Women's Facility. Therapy sessions are scheduled Saturdays for one hour and each volunteer is assigned a location to attend for the day.
A volunteer usually has an exercise planned, such as asking the inmates to draw their anger, or draw how they got into jail. The volunteers must always be ready to adapt to the environment, and base their exercises on how the inmates feel that day.
Program Director Rosalie Bouchard-Bihr said she is inspired by the inmates she works with every day.
"I love how connected I become with the inmates and how that connection allows growth to occur and how inspired these women make me," said Bouchard-Bihr, 21.
Savanna Roderick-Deffee, was released from Santa Cruz County Jail in March and said she benefited from ART Initiative when she was an inmate. Roderick-Deffee said she felt valued by the volunteers which made her value herself. She is applying to colleges and herself volunteers with ART Initiative.
"They recognized us as people before our charges," Roderick-Deffee said. "It's crazy to think that these people came into prison with three years of college under their belt when I have three years of prison under my belt and they still respected my opinion."
There are seven volunteers working for ART Initiative and new volunteers are needed.

Hey, Jewel: Please Call!
Some years ago, Steve Poltz called my answering machine and left a message wherein he was finger-banging some moaning young babe with admirable gusto. "Does that feel nice?" he asked her.
"Ooohh, OOOOHHH! Play with my sugar pot," this particular moaning young babe cooed back. All this amidst squishy-squishy noises that told me the woman in question was indeed enjoying herself quite a bit.
When I next spoke with him and inquired as to the identity of the handjob beneficiary, Poltz asserted that it was one JEWEL KILCHER. The name meant nothing, this being years before Jewel had saved anyone's soul or become an angel, everyday or otherwise. At the time, our towheaded, yodeling lass with the fetching, Grammy-exposed nipples was a struggling singer/songwriter who held down a waitressing job at a San Diego-area coffeehouse.
Everyone has their embarrassing famous-person stories—there's one of mine. I have just earned untold hordes of new enemies by recounting this sordid little tale for you, dear readers. I sacrifice myself at the altar of your deviate gossip jones. Disclaimer: I have no proof this was indeed Jewel. Maybe Steve was lying. Maybe it was a Jewel impostor. Perhaps he asked her to moan exquisitely, seductively, ever-so-sweetly into my answering machine and she did so because she was perhaps also an aspiring actor. Assuming it was Jewel. Which maybe it wasn't. Please don't sue me, Jewel. You once thought enough of me to moan into my answering machine, remember?

Unlike seemingly everyone in San Diego, I neither revere nor repudiate Jewel. Mention her name to the locals, and they'll either go off into flights of worship worthy of the bodhisattva or hateful, small-minded professional jealous fits because Jewel made it as big as it gets while they continue to live in roach-infested shitholes with cross, B.O.-afflicted spouses who would never be good enough sports to moan seductively into anyone's answering machine.
There seems no middle ground when it comes to Divine Lady Jewel. Personally, I think she's a damn fine singer/songwriter as far as that stuff goes but certainly not the figure of holy inspiration she's made out to be by her most ardent supporters. Her voice is a versatile, soulful instrument, at once girlish and coquettish, but muscular enough to perform admirable stunts of falsetto and melisma. No one can deny that her songs are catchy and burn themselves into your consciousness. Her prose, though . . . Well, let's put it this way: when Jewel's poetry book was released, I picked it up and browsed through it at Borders—and I wound up belly-laughing loudly enough that people stared as if I were quite insane. Her messiah-complex pose makes my flesh crawl, even as it elicits involuntary sniggers.
For all that, I'll always have a warm place in my heart (and lap) for Jewel, who plays at the Irvine Meadows Amphitheatre on Sunday night. She means well. She's talented. She's a fine-lookin' little morsel of flesh, and once upon a time, she squealed and moaned delightfully into my answering machine. Assuming that really was Jewel. Which maybe it wasn't. So don't sue me.
A good week for locals: Huntington-based JAMES HARMAN plays on Friday at Hogue Barmichael's. A world-class talent by anyone's standards, Harman is a 'Bama-born-'n'-raised singer/songwriter/ harp master who can, by turns, drag his blues through swamp mud with the best of 'em or wax as urbane and sophisticated as Big Joe Turner or Eddie "Cleanhead" Vinson. A titan of West Coast blues, Harman's dance-happy music swings like a bitch without sacrificing anything in the grit or authenticity departments.
Also on Friday, DEL NOAH & HIS MT. ARARAT FINKS burn rubber at the Foothill. Equal parts hot-rod music, punk rock, surf vibe and greasy sax squeezin's, the Long Beach-based band wallows in enough different retro pop-culture obsessions to be fodder for a dozen disparate fanzines, and they do it all with a sense of humor that throws it over the top rope like an airborne wrassler on the receiving end of a flying clothesline. Prepare for a good time.
Tuesday night, one of the area's most misunderstood and underappreciated bands appears at Linda's Doll Hut. DYNAMO HUM's new CD, Fallopian, underscores the group's myriad strengths—a lyrical feel for the theatrical, seemingly inspired by Alice Cooper; a sense of personal outrage la Romeo Void and Marianne Faithful; a hypnotic, hallucinogenic drone derived from the Doors and X; an ultrasexy, charismatic front person in Jen Hung; plus all-around musical excellence on a level almost unheard of in contemporary rawk music.
So why is it that so many people I talk to hate this group? Lack of trendiness? Balding, paunchy band members who proudly admit to being nerds? The very idea that rock needn't be played prestissimo to be effective? Whatever, dood. . . . I'll quote Kris Kristofferson and say, "You're the only one that you are screwin' when you put down what you don't understand" to those who dis the Hummers. It's clear to anyone who reads this column regularly that I'm a roots-music guy, not a rock guy. Dynamo Hum isn't a roots band, but I honestly believe that on the level of inspired creativity, this may be the single best unsigned group OC has to offer.
Don't laugh, motherfuckers: I also love DONOVAN, who plays the Coach House on Sunday night. Dig this litany of essential folk-rock hits:"Universal Soldier," "Mellow Yellow," "Sunshine Superman," "Wear Your Love Like Heaven," "Catch the Wind," "Hurdy Gurdy Man," "There Is a Mountain," "Season of the Witch," "Jennifer Juniper," "Lalena," "Atlantis"—few can boast a string of singles so successful, so melodic. This guy's songs are pure and lovely, and Donovan exudes an enlightened sincerity that might seem clichd but actually personifies the gentle spirit of the '60s without any of the bullshit excess. I saw him during his last go-round at the Coach House and was astonished to find that the old guy can also pick an acoustic guitar like no one's business, and his new songs stand up real well next to the old hits. This is much more than an oldies act; check him out and you won't be sorry.
Oh—and Jewel? If you wanna try calling me again and leaving your phone number, I promise I'll call you back.

Catching Up
Several of baseball's most intriguing stories this year have concerned the men behind the plate. In the first half of the season alone, we've witnessed:
- A great first half from Ivan Rodriquez, spearheading the Tigers' surprising rise to respectability.
- A fine offensive performance by Johnny Estrada in Atlanta, who just a little over a year ago was maligned as the bad return in the Kevin Millwood deal.
- The Molina brothers splitting catching duties in Anaheim while a third brother makes his debut in St. Louis.
- Mike Piazza setting the catcher home run record and finally getting to first base.
Win Shares particularly gives high rankings to Estrada and Rodriquez, who are on pace for thirty Win Shares each, which is a real achievement. In the entire history of baseball, a catcher has achieved at least thirty Win Shares in a single season only 33 times. Here's the full list:
Catcher Year Age WS Piazza 1997 28 39 Bench 1972 24 37 Freehan 1968 26 35 Bench 1970 22 34 Bench 1974 26 34 Berra 1954 29 34 Piazza 1996 27 33 Piazza 1998 29 33 Campanella 1951 29 33 Campanella 1953 31 33 Carter 1985 31 33 Dickey 1937 30 33 Fisk 1972 24 33 Tenace 1975 28 32 Berra 1950 25 32 Howard 1964 35 32 Piazza 1993 24 31 Porter 1979 27 31 Berra 1951 26 31 Berra 1956 31 31 Carter 1982 28 31 Cochrane 1930 27 31 Daulton 1992 30 31 Fisk 1978 30 31 Bench 1975 27 31 Simmons 1978 28 30 Carter 1980 26 30 Carter 1984 30 30 Cochrane 1932 29 30 Fisk 1977 29 30 Freehan 1967 25 30 Lopez 2003 32 30 McCarver 1967 25 30
This list says a lot about the evolution of men with ignorant tools. Not a single thirty Win Share season occurred among catchers until 1932, and each decade thereafter seems to have cast an individual spotlight on the finest catchers in history. Here's a list of the number of thirty Win Share seasons by decade, along with the leading catcher(s) of the time:
1930's: 3 (Cochrane and Dickey)
1940's: 0
1950's: 6 (Berra and Campanella)
1960's: 4 (Freehan)
1970's: 10 (Bench and Fisk)
1980's: 4 (Carter)
1990's: 5 (Piazza)
2000's: 1
Win Shares, of course, includes both batting and fielding stats, and Bill James took care to credit catchers for the important role they play on the field. He included a number of stats to assess each catcher's fielding ability, such as caught stealing rates, errors, wild pitches, sacrifice hits allowed and Catcher ERA. Since we don't typically look at these stats during the year, I thought I'd pull them together to see how this year's guys are doing behind the plate. In particular, we've got:
- Innings played at catcher
- Percent of baserunners Caught Stealing (CS%), as well as total Stolen Base Attempts (SBA). I included both stats because sometimes runners just won't run on strong-armed catchers.
Now for the stats. I've grouped catchers by team, which makes their stats more directly comparable (having caught the same pitching staff). Let's start with the Angels' Molina brothers:
Name Team Inning SBA CS% ERA WP/PB/G B. Molina Angels 368.3 32 22% 4.40 0.538 J. Molina Angels 326.0 27 48% 4.50 0.221
The younger Molina (by a year) has been outplaying his brother in the field, catching almost twice as many runners on the basepaths and allowing fewer wild pitches and passed balls.
Name Team Inning SBA CS% ERA WP/PB/G Matheny Cardinals 484.3 22 27% 3.98 0.204 Molina Cardinals 146.0 6 50% 3.95 0.370 McKay Cardinals 124.0 11 45% 3.05 0.435
Mike Matheny has a reputation as a good fielding catcher, and he seems to be earning it this year. His CS% of 27% is about average, but there have been only 22 attempts against him in nearly 500 innings — the lowest ratio of any regular catcher. He also manages to keep errant pitches under control. Meanwhile, the other Molina brother is throwing out 50% of runners — though only six attempts have been made with him behind the plate. Baserunners just don't seem to take chances against the Cardinals in general.
Name Team Inning SBA CS% ERA WP/PB/G Zaun Blue Jays 371.3 41 32% 3.90 0.364 Cash Blue Jays 325.0 24 46% 5.23 0.609
Kevin Cash's catch-and-throw reputation preceded his arrival in the major leagues, and the stats show it. Veteran Greg Zaun, however, has much better "other" catching stats.
Name Team Inning SBA CS% ERA WP/PB/G Rodriguez Tigers 573.0 27 19% 5.09 0.455 Inge Tigers 140.0 21 33% 4.63 0.643
Last year, I-Rod's defensive stats started to decline, and that appears to be continuing this year. He has caught only 19% of basestealers, though there have only been 27 attempts in nearly 600 innings. At some point, runners will start taking chances against him again.
Name Team Inning SBA CS% ERA WP/PB/G Blanco Twins 411.7 32 47% 4.90 0.372 Mauer Twins 238.0 14 36% 3.40 0.189
Henry Blanco has a great arm, but look at Joe Mauer's other stats. There's a big difference in ERA, which may be entirely due to the timing of Mauer's return. But he also is showing a strong ability to block them wobbly pitches. And his CS% ain't bad, either.
Name Team Inning SBA CS% ERA WP/PB/G Olivo White Sox 366.3 27 26% 4.69 0.393 Alomar Jr. White Sox 271.0 31 19% 4.72 0.332
The White Sox traded Miguel Olivo for Freddy Garcia, and they are going to miss his strong arm. His other stats aren't really different from Alomar's, but Alomar doesn't have much of a future.
Name Team Inning SBA CS% ERA WP/PB/G Johnson Rockies 495.0 50 18% 5.38 0.418 Greene Rockies 234.7 18 0% 7.13 0.729
Wow. The Rockies' catchers stink.
Name Team Inning SBA CS% ERA WP/PB/G Varitek Red Sox 581.0 51 25% 4.15 0.186 Mirabelli Red Sox 165.3 27 22% 3.27 0.980
Warning: Tim Wakefield alert. Doug Mirabelli is Wakefield's personal catcher, and the wild pitch/passed ball counts show it. As does the ERA.
Name Team Inning SBA CS% ERA WP/PB/G Barajas Rangers 414.3 25 28% 4.21 0.217 Laird Rangers 240.0 20 45% 4.35 0.338
Gerald Laird started the year as the Rangers' regular catcher, but tore a ligament in his thumb in late May. Rod Barajas has stepped in and has contributed with the bat and behind the plate, exhibiting more power than Laird. He may not have Barajas' arm, but his defensive game appears solid overall.
Name Team Inning SBA CS% ERA WP/PB/G Phillips Mets 301.3 20 20% 3.43 0.269 Piazza Mets 277.3 27 19% 4.09 0.260 Wilson Mets 165.0 13 38% 3.27 0.273
Mike Piazza has been criticized for his inability to throw runners out, but Jason Phillips doesn't look any better. Vance Wilson has the best arm of the three, though they appear relatively even in the other categories.
Name Team Inning SBA CS% ERA WP/PB/G Redmond Marlins 412.3 39 26% 4.30 0.175 Castro Marlins 243.7 13 31% 3.55 0.259
Mike Redmond was I-Rod's backup last year, and his fielding stats were not great. He does seem to block pitches well, and his arm is okay. Ramon Castro's swollen toe and shrunken bat may keep him off the Marlins' roster for good.
Name Team Inning SBA CS% ERA WP/PB/G Schneider Expos 594.7 31 48% 4.19 0.318 Diaz Expos 148.0 11 27% 5.59 0.304
Brian Schneider is one heck of a catcher and should be the Gold Glove half-year winner in the NL, maybe in all of baseball. Only 31 stolen base attempts in nearly 600 innings, and half of them have been caught.
Name Team Inning SBA CS% ERA WP/PB/G Hammock Diamondbacks 360.7 37 27% 3.77 0.424 Mayne Diamondbacks 201.7 18 44% 6.69 0.803 Brito Diamondbacks 174.3 16 50% 4.96 0.413
These guys are contributing nothing on offense, so I'm not sure their fielding stats matter. Still, Brito appears to have a better arm than Hammock, who's been struggling with a bum knee.
Due to length constraints, I didn't include all catchers in this article. However, here is a complete list of all major league catchers and their stats.

Someone with a BIG rifle is blowing my targets up!
Well, this is just a rant post!
An old rancher here in the county has an old gravel pit on his land that is mined out. About 10 months ago, I asked him if he would mind if we set up a range in the pit. He was all for it, we just had to pick up our trash.
A carpenter friend and I built a bench. I then made permanent 100, 200 and 300 yard targets.
It wasn't long before another old fella who shoots at the pit spent a day painting everything. The word got around and people who know the rancher started to ask me if they could use my targets. The rancher had given them permission to shoot but suggested they ask me to use my targets and bench.
I had no problem, so I put up a sign that anyone who had the ranch permission, could use my bench and targets and to please pick up their trash.
Well, I went out yesterday and my 200 yard target was destroyed, the 300 yard target had huge .50 cal holes all over it!
I asked the ranch if anyone had asked to shoot. He said "No".
Not only am I steaming mad about my target, now I am worried that people are trespassing to use a place I made better! I don't what the landowner to shut us down because the "word" has gotten out about the range. Again i don't care if people use it, thats what its for, they just need to ask and not shoot the targets with BIG guns!!
Anyone have a similar problem?

Yes, but the one here was on a club range.
A friend and I got tired of repairing target stands and rehanging gongs because the bums would shoot the stand instead or the target and the hanging chains instead of the hardsteel plates. Not to mention blowing through the plates from ten yards instead of ringing them from a hundred.
It is a form of the Tragedy of the Commons. Resources available to many will be depleted by a few.

You will always have that kind on a range. For out club I bought the lumber, donated the posts, dug the holes, built the target frames and made sure there was a plentiful supply of cardboard to mount their targets on. I just finished replacing a shot up cross piece and put a sign on it to not post targets on the wood frame. I got back to the bench, got out my gear and was ready to shoot and there was a target stapled next to the sign saying not to put your target on the wood. The moron is standing right next to me and I stop him before he shoots and ask him why he did that. Well I see you out up new cardboard and I didn't want to shoot it full of holes he says innocently.
Every week for 6 months I rebuilt those target frames till I quit the club. Now they are shooting at old barrels and old pallets propped up with junk 2x4's and I don't care. Somebody always thinks they are better than everybody else and the rules do not apply to them. We are there to service them so they can play unfettered by the restrictions normal people live by.
I sympathize with you but once a range becomes known it becomes public and then it becomes off limits because there is that 3 per center who doesn't have to play by the same rules and will get it shut down for everybody. This is why I now have my own range and while I am generous that generosity comes with a price. I have to be there when they shoot and they have to pick up their trash before they leave and I get to shoot their guns and their ammo. I used to be more relaxed about it but finding gallon jugs and liter bottles shot up and blowing all over my backfield and my mineral blocks put out for the critters getting all shot up took the relaxed right out of the equation.
Good intentions will always be pleaded for any assumption of power. The Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern will, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters.

Some people are just too self absorbed to care. At least with private land, the owner can get them for trespassing if it becomes a serious problem.

lesson learned: when done, take your targets and their holders home with you. lots of ways to make them portable, including lumber, PVC piping, and welded metal.

As everybody else stated, that's not an uncommon complaint.
A few years back, I made a couple really nice spinning targets out of steel. Nothing fancy just duck and rabbit silhouettes. I would have a ball with my .22 gallery rifle. My buddy, nice guy that he is, had a flash of brilliance and decided to cut loose on them with his Garand. WITH AP BALL!!
You can imagine what happened there. Poor targets were all Swiss cheesed up.
Needless to say several ungentlemanly words were shouted his way. This is why we can't have nice things.

I suggest that you just take your targets with you if you do not want them destroyed. You best take the bench too, cause once the targets are gone the other folks will need something to shoot at. Generally with nuttin' else to shoot at, the bench is the first thing they go for. Either that or get the names of all of those with permission to shoot there and ask for donations of money/time/effort to help with the targets. Odds are those that destroyed you targets did not destroy them intentionally, but if they had permission to shoot there and you had a sign sayin' it was okay to shoot them, I can't see where they did anything to deserve the rant. Nobody told them they couldn't use big guns. If it was trespassers, I would not leave anything there until that issue is resolved.

A local range here has 4 targets. One at 25 yards and 3 at 100 yards. They are made out of steel frames and they use a sheet of OSB. Well, they replace the OSB about once a year. Doesn't take long for them to be destroyed. I don't know how many times I've seen people unload shotguns at the 25 yard one. I try to shoot respectfully. I almost always just bring my own targets so the OSB will last longer.

Sure blame the 50BMG guys..ban them. Are you sure it was not slugs from a shotgun. Did you find 50BMG cases? Maybe it was a BP rifle?

We just have to put up with idiots, we have them in all aspects in life.
When have a rather large ex-gravel pit on BLM about 2 miles from my house and 8 miles from town.
Great place for long range shooting, we can get 2000 yard easy, but you can go much further.
Most people who use it build portable steel targets as you can drive out to set up your gongs.
How ever some people started shooting bottles, even seen an old TV some one left after using it as a target.
Like I said, you're always going to have idiots. Not much we can do about it but we don't want to loose the ability to shoot here.
When I shoot there I take a rubber garbage can and throw it in the truck. Part of my long range shooting program consist of policing up glass, cans or any other trash left by others.
I don't like picking up after others, but I don't like to risk loosing our abilities to loose this long range land either.
I can get up to 400 yards in my own range, its a little better because I have total control of who shoots and what they shoot here.
But on BLM all we can to is watch our shooting habits and pick up after others.
Its not right, but its the way it is.

Master, Yea, it was a .50 BMG. The targets are steel T posts with 5/8" OSB hung from them with hose clamps. The T posts were shot in half!
Anyway, I went out last night and fixed everything up. Everyone is picking up trash and brass, so the place looks pretty good. I used a Sharpie and wrote a sign on the bench asking for the big gun shooters to bring their own targets.

Have not had that issue yet, I bring my own targets to my range and take them with me when I leave.
Not everyone is so considerate, there is almost always some manner of trash left by the backstop: old cardboard, lawn jockeys and "my size" action figures that someone decided to blow apart, et cetera.
I am not even able to bring guests with me to my range because some fool was bringing 10-15 people with him as "guests" - i.e. gun party

The lowest common denominator factor sometimes makes me just despair.
I guess we just have to put up with them and remember 90% (or maybe even 99%) of people just aren't like that at all.

It's cases like this that I know deal with letting hunters hunt or buddies hunt or target practice or something. Friends, acquaintances or paid hunters. You have problems everytime or will so it's just easier to say no. It's not worth the headaches and there are a very few that would never screw up but they are the ones that it hurts when you say enough is enough.

Op, you made a safe place to shoot and people used the range.....don't be mad, your targets could only absorb SO many bullets before they were damaged......just expect to do a little maintenance every now and then......i'm glad to read you rebuilt the 200yd target and repaired the 300......i say pat yourself on the back knowing that you've helped provide a safe place for yourself and others to shoot.....it's not hard to see you've done a good thing.

To me it sounds like you made a great place for you to shoot. Only problem is everybody and their brother are now taking advantage. Not a bad thing if they help in the duties and keep it clean, are safe etc, etc.. You did great it sounds just hope no ya-hoos make it come to an end. Hopefully the land owner will see who is trustworthy. But sometimes they don't know and end it for everyone. :-(

Hey. Look at the bright side. At least they didn't dump an old sofa, and a refridgerator in the middle of the range.

I've shot 7mm RM at a target at 300+yards, missed the target, and cut a T-post in two with a 150 grain Ballistic Tip. This was on my own farm and my own fence to fix. Please don't blame the 50BMG's unless you have substantial proof. But I am willing to admit, there are Bad Apples out there no matter what the caliber.

just lay your targets down when you leave - real sportsmen & enthusiasts will pick them up to use them... and gentlemen will lay them as they found them when they are finished... however, the punk with the .50 will be far too tired from carrying his rifle in to lift the targets... and likely you will be able to identify his future presence by 6foot thick trees being shot down.

World Record Limbo Dancer Slithers Under a Car
Subscribe to TheFW on
How low can you go? Not nearly as low as this woman.
Shemika Charles, who already owns the world record for limboing down to eight-and-a-half inches, managed to top that — or bottom it? — by doing her thing under a car.
The 22-year-old, who hails from Trinidad and Tobago, now tours all over the US, showing off her wild talents, while practicing up to six hours daily to keep her body honed. Her skill is definitely in the genes, too, since her mother used to be a limbo dancer.
While she does win strange looks and applause from shocked onlookers, contorting her body does come with risks for Charles, who has to see a chiropractor once a week. Even if her body started to show signs of wear and tear and affected her health, Charles says she probably still wouldn't stop doing limbo.
And that's a comment that probably got under her chiropractor's skin.

House of Lashes Noir Fairy 3pk Reviews
House of lashes Noir FairyThese are my favorite lashes! After fumbling with multiple other brands, I thankfully found these. They are dramatic, adding beautiful volume and length. The texture is the most natural 'false lash' I have ever felt! With the House of Lash brand glue (a glue I can't believe I ever lived without) they glide on easily and last through the night. No more embarrassing lash disasters, since using this brand. — 3 years, 1 month agoelizabeth_sarah | 1 reviews

Compare great Rover Car Audio prices in London with Who Can Fix My Car.
great service Patrick is a life saver,he was very understanding and completed the work what was necessary to be done on my car and i'm over the moon ,can't fault him in any way.
Couldn't recommend Patrick enough, very helpful and went out of his way to ensure the job was done as quickly as possible. Even dropped the car back to my house which was great. I needed a new clutch and flywheel (£1250) for a Lexus IS250. Was quoted just under £2k by a Lexus Dealership.
I would rate at 5. Done what they said they would in the time given. Car feels like new. They go over and beyond repairs. Picking your car up and returning to you. Would definitely use again and would recommend to all including my own family! A clutch and fly wheel cost me £800. Was quoted £998 for clutch and if I had fly wheel changed £1423 by the local dealership. I have a mini. Need I say more! Happy customer for sure
Paul was absolutely fantastic, I am not exaggerating, he was brilliant. I cannot recommend him, Automotive Components highly enough. There were no hidden extras with the price quoted, and his advice was welcome and refreshing! Ive told all my family, friends and colleagues about him and his service, I hope that he doesn't get too busy though as he is now my dedicated mechanic!
Patric is a great man he knows what he is doing plus he good at his word
Thanks for the fast, efficient service. Will definitely use again.
Lee replaced my clutch on my Peugeot 1007 to a very high standard and he was very informative and efficient and I would highly recommend him.
I found it to be a bit pricey, considering that my description of requirement , acquired me quotes from others which was for a gear box refurbishment and if Clutch required changing whilst they would need to remove the gear set, they could do that. However in this case the requirement seems to have been misunderstood; hence quotation was for clutch change only and lubricating gear box; indicatkng that my requirement would have been addresses by the rellacement of the clutch only. It turned out on the first diagnosis that the gear box would need refurbished, which caused be another £350 over the quoted price, plus the vehicle had to be kept in a public cara park overnight.. but the way the wotk was done was Good.
Excellent service all round and a good price. They identified other problems with my car which they fixed. Very friendly and would highly recommend.
I didn't use the service in the end as the car has been scrapped but great response time and estimate
Garage provided a competitive and speedy quote for the work I required. They ordered a new air con condenser unit and fitted it the same day the unit was delivered to the garage. Air Con now works brilliantly. Ivy was very friendly and helpful and she answered all my questions. Garage is located behind a parade of shops with 2 separate entrance/exits that are clearly signed from the street. Having always used the VW main dealer for maintenance and servicing work I was nervous about using another garage but I need not have worried. I would highly recommend this garage and would not hesitate to use them again in the future.
I normally do most maintenance on my car myself but changing the timing belt is beyond my DIY skills so I am grateful to Galaxy Auto Centre for providing a professional job, performed on time and on budget. I was happy with the selection of parts (OEM quality) and the service represented good value for money. Many thanks.
excellent service
Very nice service.Very helpful .I will definitely visit them again!
Very nice experience. This was the only garage that actually supplied me with clear quotes, answers to my requests and all continued communications...and carried out the work on time as agreed. All thanks to Ivy, she is a true Wonder Woman! Her team were very polite too and returned the car clean. Pricing was excellent too, to the point I thought they were going to add more VAT - not the case; thus I had a little more work, that was bugging me, completed on the same booked visit. I can keep going on about how nice the whole experience was but it's my garage now, go elsewhere! Only downside (nowhere is perfect), is the slight tight entrance (not that bad really), but they will kindly drive if you wish and I'm not sure the customer care will be up to Ivy's standards when she's on holiday.
I'm not one who would usually leave a review but I was very impressed with the service from All4wheels. They collected my car, kept me well informed all the way through the job and returned my car as agreed. I felt they went out of their way to make sure that I was satisfied with the work done.
Really impressed with All 4 Wheels. Received the initial quote within a few minutes of posting the request and past 11pm at night!! Price for having all discs and pads replaced were over £130.00 cheaper than the MOT station and high street autorepair center. Car was picked up repaired and returned the same day and within a couple of days from the quote. All in all a pleasurable experience for a change from a very reliable garage and no doubt will receive the family servicing needs from now on. My thanks to all at All 4 Wheels.
Reliable, great price, would use again
Thank you easy to deal with great job.
Excellent service .. They quoted me for all 4 disks and pads which was cheaper than the other garages, plus a new caliper, front suspension bush,mot which I think were both reasonably priced, We're happy with the service and will be recommending to our Friends.
Customer service was excellent, they diagnose and repair my car on the same day. Fast and quality service. 5*
Yes (would recommend them), based on this initial experience, I would recommend Gavin, Ross Motors. Really good customer service, feedback and clear explanation on what was really done and the added service/tasks he performed at no extra cost. He said, due to the nature of the fault (electronic), we would need to give a week to see if the issue re-occurred and then follow it up. Very happy with the service and attitude.
Very efficient and hassle free- had a full service and MOT done for the first time with them and will definitely going again next time around! Highly recommend it!
Once again quick and friendly service. Interim pre-MOT service for £99 and replaced a bulb for cost price. Spotted some advisory issues that I'll be putting in for repair post MOT.
Garages are like barbers, when you find one you stick with them forever :) Went there for first time to do a full service on my bmw 1 series. The staff were very friendly and professional, they also done an engine flushing which made a huge difference on my car's performance. I will recommend the garage to my friends.
Great service - was able to diagnose and fix a problem quickly, at short notice and at the estimated cost. Michael was very pleasant to deal with and clearly explained (and even demonstrated) what the fault had been.
Great work
Very nice friendly approach good job and very happy well deserve
Great service will defo use again
Thank you for an excellent and prompt service, Highly recommended would defiantly use again.

IRVINE, Calif. Allergan has completed its acquisition of Esprit Pharma Holding and will move rapidly to integrate Esprit into Allergan, according to Yahoo.com.
Allergan expects to launch Esprit's bladder control drug Sanctura XR in the first quarter of 2008.
"This is an exciting day for Allergan as we enter into another core specialty market where there is a high unmet need and significant growth potential," said David E.I. Pyott, Allergan's chairman of the board and chief executive officer. "The acquisition will help us better serve the needs of the urology community and its patients by offering Sanctura XR, and by further developing a treatment portfolio that addresses the continuum of care for overactive bladder and other urologic disorders."

Murray Williams and Sapa
EXPELLED ANC Youth League leader Julius Malema could one day return to the party fold – but only with the approval of those who will rule the ANC in future.
This emerged as the party confirmed Malema's expulsion late last night, after the ANC National Disciplinary Committee of Appeals dismissed Malema's appeal against his expulsion.
The castaway's fate was decided by a high-powered panel, headed by Cyril Ramaphosa, and comprising powerful ANC figures Jeff Radebe, Jessie Duarte, Trevor Manuel and Brigitte Mabandla.
But in its reaction, the ANC appeared to leave a sliver of hope for its troublesome son.
It noted in a statement: "This is not the first time a member or members of the ANC had to be subjected to a due process in upholding our constitution.
"Many of those who have been subjected to the same process and sanction have in turn learnt from their mistakes and have become better members who are fulfilling their role in the organisation.
"We believe the same is possible for comrades Julius Malema, Sindiso Magaqa and Floyd Shivambu."
An ANC source explained today that while Malema's expulsion was "indefinite", the ANC's constitution gave him the right to reapply to join the movement, although it was unclear when he could do this.
Wits University political analyst Professor Susan Booysen said Malema's political future was tied to the ANC faction that would hold power at the time, and specifically after the next ANC elections at its elective conference in December.
Booysen said: "He (Malema) is 40 years younger than the current ANC leadership. If he doesn't burn himself out, there's a good chance he will have a political future."
She pointed out that President Jacob Zuma had been in a similar position, with his career in the ANC seeming to have hit a dead-end when he was dismissed as deputy president by then President Thabo Mbeki.
Malema had learned from that experience, she suggested.
Booysen said she was working in the Eastern Cape, where it was becoming increasingly clear from her interviews that there were "many different ANCs". What this meant was that there were party members who were disillusioned with its leaders but who still considered themselves to be ANC.
"Malema may be a non-member, but he will create his own ANC and have supporters around him."
He was popular and "called a spade a spade", which went against the party's culture, which did not publicly question the leadership or its decisions, she said.
Her view is backed up by the ANC's constitution, which reads: "25.6 (a2) The decisions of the NDCA shall be final, except that the NEC may, in its discretion, review a decision. Such a review shall be regulated by standing orders adopted by the NEC."
The ANC said today that the disciplinary processes against the ANCYL leadership had been a distraction from the party's core business.
"It's not something nice, we value every member, but our members have to abide by the (party) constitution," said ANC spokesman Jackson Mthembu.
"With the process reaching finality, the ANC can concentrate on its main business of making life better for South Africans."
Malema's home town of Seshego in Limpopo was quiet late last night following confirmation of his expulsion.
In February, clashes broke out between Malema's security staff and an anti-Malema group outside his grandmother's home in Seshego when the National Disciplinary Committee announced his expulsion from the party.
But last night the streets were quiet, with no sign of celebrations or protests.
"Nothing happened, it was quiet, we have our crime prevention unit monitoring the area," said Limpopo police spokesman Brigadier Hangwani Mulaudzi.

A large-scale cannabis growing facility has been discovered by police at an isolated farm.
Detectives and uniform officers executed a drugs warrant at Warrenorth Farm, on the A275 East Grinstead Road, North Chailey, at 9.15am today (Wednesday February 26).
In a specially adapted outbuilding they discovered more than 1,000 cannabis plants in various stages of growth, with an estimated potential street value of at least £1 million.
Two men and two men were arrested at the address on suspicion of being involved in cannabis cultivation and are currently in custody for interview and further enquiries.
Detective Inspector Gavin Patch said; "Although our examination of the building is at an early stage it is already clear that this is one of biggest such sites we have seen for some time."

This is right out of the GM service manual so it may be no better than what you already have. It appears the only screws are on the inside and nothing prys off. It may bind in the 1/4 panel when you pull it toward the rear because of the guide pins. Best I can do, hope it helps. Thanks
