Lefty pitchers facing the Rangers this year just lost three Ks a game as righty, Ryan Garko, was added to the roster to spell Chris Davis. Then again, maybe not. If Seattle passed on him for a Kotchman/Sweeney blahtoon, what makes you think he's going to light it up in Texas?
Please, blog, may I have some more?Jermaine Dye
I know most of you are champing/chomping at the bit for me to finish these facacta 2010 fantasy baseball rankings. Well, the pitchers are right around the corner. Some of these top 80 outfielders for 2010 fantasy baseball are long shots to make the club, but they might give you value if they do. Or they might just give you value when they're called up in the summer. As Kanye West said, I'll show you how I cook up summer in the win-turr. As with the other rankings, where I see tiers start and stop are mentioned with my projections. Anyway, here's the top 80 outfielders for 2010 fantasy baseball:
Please, blog, may I have some more?Yesterday, Rafael Furcal went 2-for-4 with a steal. I thought Furcal was overvalued in the preseason because I thought he was more fragile than Alanis after a breakup. Well, he's actually played the whole season, albeit terribly. He's been on base over 200 times. He has 10 steals with 6 times caught. Who gave him Kirk Gibson's fist-pumping legs for five months? But, and here's the head turner, he has 4 steals in the last seven games. Not sure what happened to Furcal the first 95% of the season, 10 steals used to be a good month for him. Maybe he's a Latin 31. But never us mind, he's hot right now. If he was dropped anywhere, he's currently hitting over .500 in the last week with 4 steals. Go fur it! Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:
Bobby Jenks – I might've misspoke when I said Linebrink would be the closer. Grey wrong? Get outta here this instant!
Please, blog, may I have some more?Chad Qualls is probably done for the season. The closer shituation isn't going to be pretty in Arizona, unfortunately. We're looking at a closerousel. I'd list the candidates in this order: Juan Gutierrez, Clay Zavada, Esmerling Vasquez, Daniel Schlereth and Blaine Boyer. Reading those names again, I vomited into a trash bin and the ghost of Hoyt Wilhelm materialized and said in a British accent, "Be careful, Grey. Gutierrez is iffy at best and Zavada can't see past his mustache when he pitches from the stretch." Because times are lean for saves in a few of my leagues, I'll cop to grabbing the first two guys. Careful about going with any of them if you don't need saves. But really, who doesn't need saves? Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:
Krispie Young – In America, everyone gets a 2nd chance — John Travolta, Michael Vick and the police officer from The Village People. Maybe people get 2nd chances in Kathmandu. I don't know. I've never heard anyone say, "Everyone gets a 2nd chance in Kathmandu." Krispie returns to the majors and should be play nearly every day. What can we expect? Nothing. How's that optimism? But what can he do? Well, he's been hot in his recent Triple-A stint and he had a decent 2nd half last year. Absolute ceiling of expectations would be 4 homers and 4 steals in September. It's not going to save your team, but it could help.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Before we get into today's Buy/Sell, I want to clear something up. Last week someone commented that my Buy/Sell post only had Buy guys in it for very deep leagues. This is sorta true. With only a little over a month left of the season, just about every league's trade deadline has past. So I could tell you to buy Manny Ramirez, but how are you going to do that? I do believe in the last month of the season, there's something else you should be doing. Or actually not doing. You should no longer be waiting around for production. Jermaine Dye's put up fine stats this year. You guys going to get a room in October and talk about his great May? If Rajai Davis is on your waivers and you need steals and don't need power, forget Dye's previous production and go for the here and now. You're up against the clock, fantasy baseballers (<–my Mom's term). You only have so much time to make this shizz happen. If it's going to happen. This is more or less for one year leagues. In keepers, you need to be prudent about who you can drop. Oh, and bee-tee-dubya, Jermaine Dye was dropped to fifth in the order and has one homer in the past month while batting .187. Cut the umbilical, doode. You guys are done. Anyway, here's some more players to buy or sell for this week in fantasy baseball:
Jack Cust – Wait, I know a better title for this post, "How To Bore The Crap Out Of Your Readers With Boring Ass Names?" Random italicized voice, you seem like you have a bit of a chip on your shoulders. No, not at all.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Chien-Ming Wang – the two-time 19 game winner – is pitching historically bad. How bad? Some TV highlight show quoted some statistical service that the 15 earned runs he's given up in the past 2 starts are the most ever for a Yankee pitcher's first two starts of the year. For fantasy purposes, he's more toxic than Chinese air, waterways, and land combined. As for Ted Lilly, you have to respect a guy who can overcome the ignominy of being traded for Hideki Irabu and Jeff Weaver. He's been a very underrated late game starter for the past two years with the Cubs.
Please, blog, may I have some more?After the top 20 outfielders for 2009 fantasy baseball, there's so many more outfielders to rank I need to turn this sucka to 40. This is after already going over all of our other 2009 fantasy baseball rankings. Since this is such a deep position, this list of 2009 outfielders could go to 60. Crazy, right? That's not crazy as in crazy, but crazy as in, "Huh. Um. Okay." When I'm done with all of the top 20 and top 40 lists, I'm going to do a top 100 and top 300 overall. That's right, ya'll; wonderful just gave birth to awesome. Now before we get into our top 40 outfielder list, here's our 2009 Fantasy Baseball Player Rater and our list of all the players with multiple position eligibility. Anyway, here's the top 40 outfielders for 2009 fantasy baseball:
Please, blog, may I have some more?Last night I took part in my third mock draft over at Mock Draft Central. Going into this mock draft, I figured I'd try to draft a mock team to mock win. Pretty out there, I know. That's how I mock roll! I didn't necessarily follow my 2009 fantasy baseball rankings to a T. What fun is mocking if you don't take some (mock) liberties.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Our boy Timmy took a Lincecumbacker to the knee. Not good if you've been riding his amazing 12-3 record (for the Giants?!?!), sub 3.00 ERA, and 10 K/9 IP. He hobbled out of the game. We'll have to see if he's as bad off as our other favorite Timmy but start scouting pitchers just in case.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Today, I noticed my diploma from the College of Fantasy Baseball at Charleston was a bit dusty and hanging crooked. So, I removed it from the wall, gave it a spit shine, polished the wood frame and fixed the wire so it would hang straight.
Please, blog, may I have some more?

The Broncos are always so thrilled to be able to host our annual Denver Rescue Mission Holiday Party at the Crossing Facility. This year's party held December 9 was no exception. It is an extremely moving experience for staff and players alike.
The following is shared from the perspective of Angie Nelson, a case manager at the Crossing.
Thank you so much to Greta, Devany, Mark Bodman, Lisette, The Crossing Management, STAR Youth Program, STAR Case Management AND EVERYONE ELSE INVOLVED for putting on such a fantastic party for our residents last night!
Last night, 182 residents of the STAR Program were given the VIP treatment at a Christmas Party held in their honor, with special guests from the Denver Broncos, including players and cheerleaders. This is my third year helping to work at this event, and it was the best one by far!
I left last night so encouraged about the work we are doing here. Children were running around, star-struck to see their favorite players in person. Residents were changing to come to the party in their best Broncos gear. Women who don't usually change out of sweatpants and slippers while they are at The Crossing, came down with their hair fixed and their make-up done (I saw bright red lipstick and a huge grin on the mouth of one female resident who rarely ever smiles).
For some of our residents, there isn't much to smile about this holiday season and there aren't many people that they feel truly connected to in a positive way. But last night, residents were giggling in corners about their interactions with the players, taking pictures with each other (not just with the players), and we got to catch a glimpse of the "healthy community" that we are trying to foster for our residents here at The Crossing.
I don't know how to word it best, but this party gave our residents an opportunity to feel special. . . to feel like there is a reason to dress up. . . to feel like they have a reason to take pride in themselves, and I am tearing up now even as I write this, remembering all of those happy faces last night, and how special I know some of them felt.
So thank you so so much, on behalf of the families and individuals we serve day-in and day-out, for the wonderful party last night.

Sep 19, 2013I went here several years ago when I was just a child and therefore I can only answer from a kid's perspective! :-) I had a great time during my visit. I especially enjoyed the pools and the gift shops with tons of toys and other Disney articles. I also have a fond memory of the key as it was pink with tinkerbell on it. Loved the Disney spirit, any young kid would love staying here for a few nights!

Jul 04, 2012This is our favorite moderate resort on property at Walt Disney World, and we will likely stay here again next time we go.
The rooms are a decent size and have a bathroom with a full bath and sinks outside with a curtain you can close to get some privacy when washing up. Beds are comfortable and sleeps two without a problem.
The main pool is really great, probably the best of any Disney moderate resort, and the food court, which has very nice theming and a cozy atmosphere, is right next to it.
Location is OK with about 20 minutes travel time to most of the parks if you use the Disney transportation.

Jul 05, 2012Dated and a bit run down but clean and comfortable enough. The hammocks at the beach were my favorite part.
- Disney's Caribbean Beach ResortSusan V. (Disney Expert)Sep 13, 2013
This is one of my favorite mid-level resorts at Walt Disney World. The grounds are lush and gorgeous, the pool is eventful and the food court has decent variety.
This resort has one of my favorite gift shops. Not that the gifts are entirely unique so many it's just the way the store is laid out.
There is a very nice playground here. If your kids need to unwind in a quiet area away from the theme parks, take them to the playground.
Go for a walk and stop on the island to appreciate the quiet shadiness of the beautiful Floriday foliage.
Girls (or boys with long hair) can get their hair braided and beaded near the pool area. The pool bar with Caribbean music makes you feel like you're on a tropical island.
If you need to relax, grab a hammock in the sand next to the lake.Recommended for:Family Travelers

This a great item and for it's intended purpose, works like a dream. I did however have to modify the top by cutting it shorter to fit without causing a clutch arm issue. It's a very easy mod.

I wanted to replace my flimsy CR250 rear rotor guard. The ultimate would be the scotts shark fin but its more weight than what I wanted. I saw this and figured why not? Installation was very easy. So far its been in the nasties of Couer d'Alene Idaho and all over Western Washington. Long story short, no shortage of rocks and lots of roots. Zero issues!

What is the full form of WC?
4 Answers | add yours
I assume that you are asking about the term "WC" as it is used mostly in European countries. This is a term used to refer to a toilet or to the room in which the toilet is located. This term is not used very often in the United States. In this case, WC comes from the words "water closet."
In medieval and early modern times, indoor toilets generally consisted of a seat over a chamber pot in a closet or other small room. Of course, it was generally only the elites who had such things. When various inventors started to come up with ways to use water to flush away the waste, the devices came to be known as water closets. This got shortened to "WC."
Posted by pohnpei397 on February 16, 2013 at 4:51 PM (Answer #1)
The full form of WC is water closet.
Posted by khaulasaadi on February 16, 2013 at 5:06 PM (Answer #2)
Yes, it must be water closet
In the Netherlands, we use watercloset (without 'space' between)
Posted by irislirisl on February 16, 2013 at 7:53 PM (Answer #3)

Davio's owner Steve DiFillippo serves up some dish in new book
When Davio's owner Steve DiFillippo told his wife, Pam, that he planned to write a book, she replied, "Why would anybody want to read a book by you?" She had a point. But DiFillippo proceeded anyway, writing "It's All About the Guest," which will be published next month. The book isn't easily categorized, including recipes, a lot of business philosophy, and even a little dish. (DiFillippo says he knew he wanted to be a restaurateur when, at the age of 19 and working at Seaside Restaurant at Faneuil Hall, one of the waitresses paid a visit to him in the kitchen wearing whipped cream instead of a shirt.) DiFillippo thinks most how-to business books are boring, so he opted for reminiscence — about slow roasting a rabbit for Stevie Ray Vaughan or sleeping with Julia Child. (OK, that didn't really happen; she slept while he drove her to an event.) "The best classes I had in college were with professors who told stories," he says. DiFillippo did manage to get some of his famous friends to blurb the book, including former Yankees skipper Joe Torre, Aerosmith bassist Tom Hamilton, former Red Sox third baseman Kevin Youkilis, Hill Holliday founder Jack Connors, Patriots owner Robert Kraft, who wrote the forward, and noted food critic and Pats QB Tom Brady, who writes "exceeding expectations is what [DeFillippo] does best." (Brady and his wife, Gisele Bundchen, are Davio's fans.) The book arrives amid a rapid expansion of Davio's, which now has locations in Boston, Philadelphia, Atlanta, Foxborough, Lynnfield, and, next month, New York.

Definition of vinyasa in English:
Syllabification: vin·ya·saPronunciation: /vinˈyäsə
- 1Movement between poses in yoga, typically accompanied by regulated breathing.More example sentences
- 'Research shows continuous yoga practice can produce similar benefits to that of aerobic exercise, especially when performing vinyasa or flow of the poses,' he says.
- This vinyasa creates heat in your body, which softens your muscles and increases the range of motion in your hips, shoulders, wrists, elbows, knees, ankles, toes and the entire spine.
- In OM yoga we use the tidal quality of the breath to initiate each movement and we join them all together in flowing sequences traditionally called vinyasa.
- 1.1A method of yoga in which movements form a flowing sequence in coordination with the breath.More example sentences
- More vigorous forms of yoga, such as vinyasa and ashtanga, promote strength and stamina as well as flexibility and relaxation.
- Several traditional yoga styles - kundalini, ashtanga and vinyasa, for example - are offered as well as hybrid styles, including Yogilates, a hatha-yoga-and-Pilates combo.
- Most vinyasa, or flowing-style, yoga classes, such as Ashtanga, OM, or Jivamukti, include breathing as part of the instruction for every pose and every transition between the poses.
Sanskrit vinyāsa 'movement, position (of limbs)'.

For a simply designed pendant that is brilliant in color, the Oval Cut Sterling Silver Baltic Amber Pendant is a beautiful choice. After Baltic Amber has been heated to a very high temperature, one is able to view resinite on the stone, otherwise known as "scales". These scales bring out brilliant reds, yellows, and golds that sit in a beautiful orange background. What makes this pendant unique is that rather than resting flush on the silver, the stone sits higher so you can view the scales at a 180 degree angle and view its true brilliance. The pendant measures .5 inches tall and .375 inches wide, and hangs on either a 16, 18, or 20 inch rolo chain. Pair this pendant with any of our matching amber earrings and rings for a fabulous look!

Tuesday May 25, 2004
The Twins had a Day Off yesterday, so I am kind of going to take one too. I'll preview briefly the upcoming Twins/Devil Rays series and update the minor league information and then call it a day.
For those of you who want to know what types of issues/problems/transactions they have to figure out within the next two to three weeks, be sure to check out both Aaron's Baseball Blog and the Twins Geek for their thoughts on it all. It's hard for me to disagree with either of them. Gleeman even compares Jessica Alba and Justin Morneau. You'll have to let me know what you think.
Who sang the song with the follow lyrics?
The first time, I looked into your eyes, I cried.
Do you remember, the first time, we fell, in love?
Did that work for him? If I tried that, I would either get laughed at or slapped.
By the way, if you didn't check out Kirk's New-Look Power Rankings article from last Friday, click here. It's worth checking out! We would love to hear more of your thoughts. E-mail me or E-mail Kirk and let us know what you think.
Here's what I wrote yesterday about the Devil Rays.
NEXT UP - The Twins have a much needed day off today. The travel to Tampa tonight and will start a three game series with the Devil Rays tomorrow night? The Devil Rays have a better team than their record would indicate. They have a fun, exciting team to watch. Aubrey Huff, Rocco Baldelli and Carl Crawford are all solid. The one question I have for them is how long can they keep uber-prospect BJ Upton in the minor leagues. BJ Upton was the #1 overall pick in the 2002 draft out of high school in Virginia (a year after Joe Mauer was taken #1 out of high school). He started the year by performing well in the D-Rays training camp. He started the year and crushed AA pitching . Two weeks ago, the Rays were going to call him up to the big league club, but on his way to the airport, the Rays called him again and told him they changed their mind and sent him up to AAA. Well, in two weeks there, he he has started by hitting .364/.417/.705 with three doubles and four homers. His only negative is 13 strikeouts in 48 plate appearances. Just some extra information, BJ's younger brother, Justin, is a junior in high school and has been the #1 ranked player in his age group each of the last four years, and is expected to be a top pick in the 2005 major league baseball draft.
If you'd like some more information on the Rays, be sure to check out Ya Gotta Believe, a great Rays blog.
Here are the pitching matchups for the series, although it is yet uncertain as to whether Kyle Lohse will make his scheduled start because he was drilled in the dugout by a line drive. But, here are the projected starters:
Tuesday - 6:15 pm - Kyle Lohse (1-3, 6.08, 1.81, .307) vs Rob Bell (0-1, 7.20, 1.60, .250 - 1 start)
Wednesday - 6:15 - Seth Greisinger (1-3, 5.52, 1.67, .320) vs Victor Zambrano (3-4, 6.18, 1.72, .252)
Thursday - 1:15 - Carlos Silva (5-2, 4.39, 1.50, .316) vs Paul Abbott (2-4, 6.42, 1.60, .267)
So, clearly this will be a series of 1-0, 2-1 and 2-0 games with those pitchers and their lines!!! Isn't that what always happens? You get a bunch of bad pitchers throwing and neither team can hit. Maybe this will be a series where the Twins can do to Tampa what the White Sox just did to them!
Any thoughts on the Twins or their upcoming Devil Rays series? E-mail me.
Redwings 3, Richmond 2 - The Redwings got an excellent start out of Peter Munro. The righty went 7 scoreless innings and gave up just two hits and a walk. He struck out three. Jesse Crain was brought in for a two inning save opportunity. The Good News? He picked up his 10th save and struck out 5. The bad news? He gave up 2 hits and walked 2 in giving up two runs.
Elvis Corporan has made quite an impression since coming up to Rochester. Last night, he DHed and went 2-4 with his first homer. LF Josh Rabe went 3-4 with two doubles. SS Augie Ojeda went 2-5. RF Jason Kubel also went 2-5 with a double.
The Rockcats had a day off before starting a series with Bowie today.
FRIDAY - Miracle 4, Daytona 8 - SS Kaulana Kuhaulua went 3-4 with a 2 run homer, but it wasn't enough for the Miracle. Matt Yeatman gave up 5 runs (4 earned) in 5 1/3 innings. He gave up 8 hits and 2 walks, but he did strike out six. 3B Michael Sandoval had a triple and a walk in 3 at bats. DH Jesus Merchan had a double. Reliever Travis Bowyer continued his stellar season. He went 1 2/3 innings, gave up a hit and a walk and struck out 3 batters. His season ERA is now at 0.34.
FRIDAY - Swing 2, Wisconsin 1 - The Swing got a good pitching performance from probably their three best pitchers. Nick Blackburn gave up the run in his five innings. He struck out 4. Julio DePaula came in and went 3 innings for his 6th win of the year. He gave up a hit and two walks and struck out four. Levale Speigner picked up his sixth save, going one inning. He gave up a hit and a walk, but closed the door. Blackburn's ERA is 2.15, DePaula's is 1.67 and Speigner's is 1.93. 3B Omar Burgos went 2-3 with one RBI. Catcher Kyle Phillips went 1-2 with a walk and a solo home run.
Any questions or comments on the Twins minor league system, e-mail me.
Wolves. Lakers. Game 3. Tonight! Staples Center. 8 p.m. central time. On TNT. Be there. Aloha!
That is it for today. Have yourself a great Tuesday! Don't work too hard! As always, if you have any questions or comments on anything, please e-mail me.

Naturally Educational » All Ages, Art, Ecology, Home Arts, Spring » Father's Day Gift: Mosaic Coasters
Father's Day Gift: Mosaic Coasters
We like to make homemade, crafty gifts for the family and for this Father's Day, the kids made mosaic coasters.
- metal jar lids
- plaster of Paris
- sea glass, seashells, smooth pebbles, mosaic tiles, broken pottery, letter beads or tiles or scrabble tiles to spell names or words
- felt
- scissors
- glue
- Mix plaster of Paris
- Pour into the metal jar lid. If your "mosaic" pieces are much thinner than the lid is shallow, you might want to allow the plaster of Paris to start to set for about 10 minutes. Alternatively, you could pour a layer, allow to set to create a base, then pour another, fresh, wet layer.
- Kids can place words (like "Daddy" or "Love") and then put other tiles and pebbles around the word in any design they like.
- Allow to dry (plaster will be dry in about 20 minutes).
- Trace and cut a circle of felt and glue to the bottom of the lid to prevent table scratches.
Educational Connections:
Mathematics: Measure the plaster of Paris and discuss the idea of proportions (two parts plaster, one part water).
Science: What happens to the plaster when you add water? What happens to the mixture after 20 minutes?
Ecology: Why is it important to use recycled materials?
Art / Art History: Identifying colors.
Advanced Art / Art History: What cultures made mosaics? Why might mosaics be useful? (recycling broken materials, making pictures out of waterproof and durable materials, etc.)
Literacy: Identifying letters, spelling words.
Fine Motor Skills: Placing tiles, tracing, cutting.

If your looking for a good imported meat and wines this is the place for you. Great ambiance and a place to relax
what's not to love?? if you like social drinking and having a good time with friends this is the place! the food is great and i love their grocery section. great for buying gifts
We stayed here for 5 hrs due to Zest Air flight delay. In this 5 hours, we have ordered a lot. The only dish I can remember is the hungarian sausage as the rest was quite ordinary. We liked the ambiance though. The best dining option in the airport. Their chairs were from the famous design Kenneth Cobunpue. I believe... More
It is the place for meats and wine lovers. You can even dined in the back room surrounded by bottles of wines. You can order many imported meat products of the 'grocery' counter and have them serve as cold plate (appetizer). Menu - must try the fish dish and the ribs! Yummy!
Love the food served in this place. super delicious! The service crew are well trained and polite. Place has very nice ambience though the price is a little pricey.
I like this restaurant. Its really nice. Best part is the deli though. If you need something special or a good bottle of wine, this is a good place to go.

Inspiration Spaces in Maison & Objet trade show in Paris are never to be missed... They are human scale treasure boxes where to go lose your pragmatic trade show frame of mind, a breath of inspiration.

Maison & Objets - Space 1 - Hall 1 - SWEET FREAKS
Monstrous beauties - Nelly Rodi
Eccentricity is energizing our imaginations. Wild flights of fancy and offbeat whimsy are shaking up a world caught between being too orderly and unhinged. Supercharged design is experimenting with curious overlaps combining the unusual and the refined. Juxtapositions, accumulations, and subversions are creating a dizzily psychotropic style. The home is mutating into a cave of wonder
Sofa So Good will also be featured in the "CRAZY" themed inspiration book 2012-13 as well as the video.
CRAZY : Enough of gloom and doom in this crazy world! A pinch of folly and caustic humor can let imagination take the wheel. It's time to champion the right to a breath of mental fresh air, to have fun. To affirm the jubilant desire to detonate wan conformity. Quirky, festive creativity is turning to whimsy and humor. Insolence and irony, extravagance and outrageousness are sweeping away things we've all seen before. Now is the time for sweet delirium and highly euphoric abnormality. In the offbeat bazaar of our contemporary cabinet of curiosities, we don't take ourselves too seriously, and it feels crazily good.
We say it does feel crazily good !

This is my second pair of the same shoe. I love the comfort! I ordered the exact same shoe from this company and the first pair that was sent had a defect, so did not fit properly. It was very easy to return them and they shipped out a replacement pair that are perfect. The only drawback is the shipping time, but if you can wait to get them, this is the best site I've found for shoes!

Cast of 'The View' Clamor Over 'Niggerhead'
Barbara Walters can't say it. Whoopi Godberg can
Things got a bit awkward on "The View" Monday between Sherrie Shepherd and Barbara Walters during a discussion on who should and should not use the word "nigger."
While discussing Texas Governor Rick Perry's association with a family ranch named "Niggerhead," Walters repeated the word "niggerhead" in context of the discussion and Shepherd immediately put her in her place by saying, "I didn't like the way you said it."
She added, "I don't know if it's a semantics thing... but something just goes through my body. When you say it, it's a different connotation."
Whoopi Goldberg also repeated the word but Shepherd said she was fine with the way she said it.
"When you say it you say N-I-G-G-E-R and I don't like that," Shepard said to Walters.
This isn't the first time "The View" took on the heated subject. Goldberg and Shepherd thought the word was okay when used only among black people. While Hasslebeck argued her view by comparing the N-word to saying the word broccoli! Uhmmm….okay Elisabeth.
Was Shepherd right? Take a look and let us know what you think.

Snow: A Mini-series (continued)
Norman Carton's Winter Light, 1956, has a slight shimmer, reflective of the seasonal light of winter. Though this painting is from a bit later, in the late 1940s, Carton often painted cities shrouded in light, giving them a spectral, supernatural appearance.

HUNTINGTON, W.Va. -- When the Marshall football team trots out onto the Joan C. Edwards Stadium turf today to open spring practice, most of the faces will be familiar ones.
With just eight seniors departing from the 2012 roster, the guys wearing jerseys will have a good idea as to who everyone is.
It's a little different story with most of the guys wearing the whistles.
Marshall Coach Doc Holliday saw a near total turnover of his coaching staff in the offseason - only three assistants from last season's staff remain - and he replenished that roster with coaches holding quality resumes. The Thundering Herd takes the field for 15 spring practices over the next month, culminating in its intrasquad game at 2 p.m. April 27.
The Herd will begin to bounce back from a 5-7 season that left it out of the bowl picture for the sixth time in the last eight seasons.
As much as the coaches and players have to get better acquainted with each other, the coaches must do the same among themselves. Those personalities already have started to mesh, said new offensive line coach Alex Mirabal, and matching those personalities became an integral part of building the 2013 staff.
"One thing we've done, and they did it when they interviewed me ... Xs and Os are Xs and Os, but is he going to fit in the room?" Mirabal said. "If the answer is yes, you can work through everything else.
"They're all great people, great human beings," he added. "It's been easy to sit down exchange ideas and go from there."
Mirabal, Florida International's former offensive line coach, replaced Geep Wade, who left Marshall for new Conference USA foe Middle Tennessee State.
He joins first-year Marshall offensive assistants Mike Furrey, the former Kentucky Christian coach and NFL veteran who replaced Purdue-bound Gerad Parker as wide receivers coach, and Thomas Brown, the former Tennessee-Chattanooga and Georgia State assistant who replaced JaJuan Seider as running backs coach after Seider returned to West Virginia.
Todd Hartley, who spent last season as Marshall's safeties coach, will coach tight ends and serve as the Herd's recruiting coordinator this year.
Offensive coordinator Bill Legg holds that job by himself this year after sharing it with Tony Petersen, who became Louisiana Tech's offensive coordinator.
The defensive staff is almost a complete makeover, starting with new coordinator Chuck Heater, the former Temple defensive coordinator who replaced Chris Rippon in Huntington. Heater also will coach the secondary after Hartley moved to offense and former cornerbacks coach Lytrel Pollard left for Southern Mississippi. Former UTC defensive coordinator Adam Fuller will coach Marshall's linebackers, and J.C. Price returns to coach Marshall's defensive line.
Sources have said the Herd plans to add former Temple defensive line coach Sean Cronin - a former Herd assistant and Heater's son-in-law - to the staff, but no formal announcement has yet been made.
Players and coaches have been introduced to each other through mat drills and skill development sessions, but during these 15 practices, the players will don helmets and pads and get an idea of what they'll see when they begin the 2013 season in August.
"It'll be new for the group we're working with," Fuller said. "That's the process you go through. You expect questions to come up, but you know that's coming. It's different, and you have to be ready for ebbs and flows and they way relationships begin."

Bell Sound Meditation
Shubha Bala, associate producer
This four-part, bell sound meditation is a short guided practice led by next week's guest, Arthur Zajonc. For our (overdue) weekend exercise, take these ten minutes to try this contemplative meditation. Then, reflect on your experience and share your thoughts with us:
- How did the sound of the bell help you focus your attention?
- Did you find that paying close attention allowed you to "let go" and be openly aware?
- How did/didn't the voice of a guide help you in this exercise?
At Amherst College's the Center for Contemplative Mind in Society, you can find other guided meditations and Zajonc's five-minute introduction to the bell sound meditation you heard above. Here, he describes this unfamiliar state of open awareness with a lyrical passage from the Tao Te Ching:
"Do you have the patience to wait 'til your mud settles and the water is clear? Can you remain unmoving 'til the right action arises by itself? The master doesn't seek fulfillment. Not seeking, not expecting, she is present and can welcome all things."
Updated: 2010.07.14 with stricken language.
Trent Gilliss, Online Editor
[Editor's note: I was combing through a test blog for SOF that never made it into production. One of the entries I posted I regretted not publishing. The piece is timeless, so I thought I'd re-post for you design lovers.]
The design house of mike and maaike developed a wonderfully elegant and simple bookshelf for a curated series of bookshelves. Its title: "religion." Niches for seven influential religious texts are carved out of a three-foot-long piece of hardwood and reverently cozied up to one another. Included are the Bhagavad Gita, the Bible, the Qur'an, Confucius' The Analects, the Tao Te Ching (translated by Stephen Mitchell), The Discourses of the Buddha, and the Torah.
You can get one of these lovely pieces, but it'll cost you. The price: $2500.

Music Leadership
Vicky Thomas, Director of Choral Music and Handbell Choir
Choral Director at Seattle First Baptist since 2006, Vicky Thomas has enjoyed over twenty years working as a church musician in the Pacific Northwest and on the east coast. She has taught all ages from pre- schoolers to retirees and has directed a wide variety of musical ensembles. In addition to the standard choral repertoire, Ms. Thomas' particular love is extending the boundaries of Christian choral ensemble work. World music works with the choir include Misa Criolla with an Andean band, interfaith anthems including Islamic, Buddhist, and Jewish texts, congregational refrains with marimbas, use of sign language in a Korean hymn and a hymn orchestration in the Karen language. Over the last four seasons Ms. Thomas developed a series of social justice concerts which combine music and outreach ministries to raise both funds and awareness. These concert include Wage Peace in 2009, Sing Us Home in 2010, Refuge in 2011 and, in 2012, a newly commissioned choral/orchestral interfaith work on earth ministry to be premiered at the NW American Choral Directors Convention in March. |
Ruth Draper, Organist
Organist at Seattle First Baptist since 2008, Ruth Draper is also a doctoral organ student of Carole Terry's at the University of Washington in Seattle, WA. She holds degrees from Eastman School of Music (music theory pedagogy and organ) and Oberlin Conservatory (environmental science and organ), where she studied with David Higgs and David Boe, respectively. Ruth specializes in adapting orchestral accompaniments to the organ, including recent performances of Vivaldi's Gloria, Duruflé's Requiem, Haydn's Creation, and Bernstein's Chichester Psalms. She has accompanied a diverse array of choirs on both piano and organ, including the Seattle Girls Choir, the Choral Arts Society of Philadelphia, the Finger Lakes Community Chorale (Canandaigua, NY), and Windsong, Cleveland's Women's Chorus. Ms. Draper is the recipient of the 2009 Peter B. Knock Scholarship for the study of sacred music, and a laureate of the 2007 Odense International Organ Competition (Odense, Denmark). |
Belle Chenault, Children and Youth Choir Director
One of the main reasons that Belle Chenault joined Seattle First Baptist in 1995 was to sing in its wonderful choir. She started her career as a high school teacher in Alabama after receiving a bachelor's degree in English and music from Northwestern University. Shortly after moving to Seattle in 1970, she obtained her Master's Degree in Choral Conducting at UW and conducted various church choirs and community choirs in the Seattle area. She taught choral music, general music, guitar, and African Drum Ensemble (and English, math, and drama) at the junior high level in Seattle and Bellevue. She holds a PhD in Educational Psychology. Vocationally, she now works primarily with children, doing counseling and educational assessments. But her main avocation is music performance�from Bluegrass to jazz to classical. She plays bass in an orchestra and has sung in many choirs and chorales, as member, assistant conductor, and soloist. She especially enjoys bringing music to the congregation of this church with the children and youth. |
James Ginn, Associate Organist
Associate Organist is one of several roles that Jim Ginn fills at Seattle First Baptist Church. He has been a member of the Sanctuary Choir since 1990. Jim serves as a soloist, cantor and tenor section leader. Music has been a passion nearly all of his life. He was singing before he talked, began studying piano at the age of six, French horn in the fifth grade, pipe organ in junior high school, and received the outstanding senior musician award in high school. He served as pianist and organist at several churches in his home state of Missouri. After completing his BA degree in Mathematics from William Jewell College and his Masters degree in Computer Science from the Missouri University of Science and Technology, Jim moved to Texas to begin his career as a computing professional. In 1989 he came to Seattle to work for The Boeing Company where he currently serves as Senior Enterprise Information Technology Architect. When Jim is not working, doing a musical activity, or sleeping, he is most likely riding one of his three touring bicycles while humming a tune. |

windharp - 3:00 pm on Jun 30, 2007 (gmt 0)
Unfortunately, AOL Ops is still working to restore our toolbuilders access to the needed resources, so a lot of things still can't be done properly. The ODP pages do have counters, so whoever wants to can monitor growth. We used to have tools to do monitoring of toplevels, but unfortunately most of them aren't available at the moment. Reason see previous chapter. But: Yes, in theory we do have access to those numbers. When comparing these numbers, please keep in mind that due to tool runs (details see remarks in the abovementioned ODP Reports) some weeks show reductions in listed sites, while others show growing numbers. Until graphical views are available again, only longer periods of time (like one months, half a year, ...) give valid estimates. But of course, anbody with a broadband internet connection and rudimentary progeramming skills could download the RDF files for two dates and do a comparison. Or - if you are not interested in to many details - you can use the wayback archive. Whatever you do, please compare numbers you got the same way. The on-site counters tend to be different from those generated by counting entried in the RDF file for soem reason. Looking at a few numbers (for example 120k back in 2003 and about 109k now - data was taken from the same source), you will notice that in the overall trend, shopping does loose size. Looking in more detail, one can notice that RoboZilla (our automated linkchecker) sorts out about 3k sites in every go (usually several times a year). Other tools remove sites as well. From my experience there are a lot of reasons making a shrinking of Shopping more understandable. Let's face a few of them. 1) Editing listings for shopping sites becomes incredibly boring over time. Ever looked at 100 sites selling absolutely the same stuff, tried to find the differences, and come up with a good description for each? 2) Experience shows that most people pretending to be interested in editing a shopping category are not really. They are just interested in "Make $$$ fast". Of course there are exceptions, but they are the minority. (Brings me to what you have hears: Yes, it is more difficult to become an editor in a Shopping category. I don't think anybody needs a more detailed explanation why, huh?) 3) Our listing criteria changed over time. Nowadays we have much more strict guideliens than a few years ago on affiliate sites, product subsites, and other sites you would typically find in the Shopping branch. In a human edited directory like DMOZ, it takes many years till the remains from the olden days are sorted out. 4) Sites shut down a lot faster in Shopping. THey simply stop to exist, are bought by other companies, stop selling stuff, or disqualify as a shopping listing in another way. I don't have numbers to prove that, it's just my personal experience from a few years of editing. Thinking about it, the difference to the normal branches most likely are tge sites of those "Make $$$ fast" people who at some point realize that it's pretty hard to do that in the internet. :-) I could go on with many other reasons, but from my point of view those are the most important.
Does DMOZ editors have access to these trends? DMOZ appears to be growing overall however the DMOZ shopping category is shrinking.
Statistics covering directory wide numbers used to be published on a monthly basis before the crash. See [freenet-homepage.de...] for details. Anybody have historic monthly figures on the DMOZ shopping category, or does DMOZ only keep track of the grand total across the site?
We usually don't publish statistics for parts of the ODP. Experience shows, that this type of information leads to "I submit my site to the category with the most additions intead of the best suited one, because this way it is listed faster" behaviour. (Which is b***s***, because it simply increases editor workload by adding "1) search correct category, 2) move site for review in the correct category" to the workflow. And if the editor is in a bad mood, he won't bother with moving an adult toy shop from the horsebreeding category.).

Steve Andrews, a longtime telecom executive, had been crisscrossing the globe for the better part of 30 years when he found Spring Island, a planned island community in South Carolina's Beaufort County. 'It was just such a unique place we said this is where we want to retire someday,' he said. He and his wife, Barbara, purchased this 0.4-acre waterfront property for $765,000 in 2000, according to public records. They completed this contemporary board-and-batten home in 2003. Spring Island
1 of 12
Originally the plan was to build a more traditional 'low country' house, Mr. Andrews said, but an impressive live oak tree on the banks of the water inspired them to showcase the views with large expanses of glass. Contemporary as it may be, the home retains some traditional elements, like its board-and-batten siding, which refers to the vertical wood boards on the exterior. The home cost about $2.4 million, including the cost of land, Mr. Andrews said. Spring Island
