PROG OFF: As seen in the American Thinker
Are You a Victim of Islamic Intimidation?
By Oleg Atbashian and Larissa ScottOn June 5, 2012, a radical Islamic organization, CAIR-Florida, sent out a mass mailing with this message:
CAIR Florida has been receiving an increase in complaints by law abiding American Muslims inappropriately targeted by law enforcement for questioning. This is a direct result of Islamophobic training CAIR has discovered many law enforcement officers in Florida are receiving. Join us this Saturday for an important program to learn how to protect yourself, your family, and your community against harassment by law enforcement or discrimination by businesses. (See screenshot).
Without verifiable proof of such "discrimination by businesses," "Islamophobic training" or "inappropriate targeting by law enforcement", this email appears to be a blatant slander of the tolerant American society and its legal system. The extensive influx of Muslim immigrants in recent years is the best evidence that they are treated better in the U.S.A. than in their own countries of origin. So what motivates CAIR to besmirch their host country and stir discontent? The answer lies in the old playbook developed by the radical Left and now passed on to the new radical players: calculated fear mongering. Such messages are designed to keep American Muslims misinformed, scared, and running for CAIR's protective cover.
In this example, CAIR was promoting its own so-called "Civil Liberties" Conference titled "Know Your Rights," with the apparent purpose of encouraging Muslim immigrants to disobey American laws, resist law enforcement efforts, and game the system with frivolous lawsuits against local businesses and government agencies that result in more political power and personal enrichment - all under the aegis of CAIR.
The email included this flyer:
Are you a victim of employment discrimination? Have you been contacted by the FBI or harassed by law enforcement? Is your employer giving you a hard time because of your hijab or won't give you time to pray? Have you or someone you know been mistreated for practicing your faith? Treated unfair? Call CAIR. Contact CAIR Florida. We are here to help. 813-514-1414.
This message represents the ongoing phenomenon of lawfare -- a form of asymmetric warfare used frequently by CAIR and other Islamic supremacist groups to establish precedent and victory in our legal system. It is complemented by the "Build a Wall of Resistance" campaign, created by CAIR's San Francisco chapter last year to promote their event, "Don't Talk to the FBI."
According to Steven Emerson, founder and executive director of The Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT),
"CAIR's hostility toward law enforcement is long-standing, but the organization's rhetoric has increased since the FBI cut off formal communication with the group in 2008. That decision was based on exhibits admitted into evidence during a terror-financing trial in Dallas that showed CAIR founders were part of a Hamas-support network."
CAIR's faith-based protection racket is now working its way to replace all other means of social interaction for Muslim immigrants, aiming to become the only game in town for all American Muslims. By the rules of this game, in exchange for "protection," they dare not assimilate and integrate into the larger society, accept American traditions and values, and -- most importantly -- dare not leave Islam. The only winners will be the radical Muslim elites who manipulate their constituents through such front organizations as CAIR, ISNA, ICNA, and others. The losers will be the rest of us, including the Muslims themselves, especially the law-abiding, assimilated immigrants among them.
The framework for such games has been inadvertently established by the fallacious multiculturalist doctrine. As every utopian idea before it, multiculturalism has created the opposite of the intended result, along with the proliferation of scams and abuse of other people's idealism. Instead of bringing peace to the nations that have tried it, multiculturalism has created division, hostility, and balkanization. In the United States it also allowed for the rise of radical collectivist pressure groups and separatist movements, such as La Raza, Black Panthers, and others -- all of them intrinsically aligned with the radical Left. Muslim radicals joined in the con years later, but they quickly learned how to capitalize on the existing ideological and litigious infrastructure, achieving an even greater prominence than their predecessors and in much shorter time.
Omar M. Ahmad, founder of CAIR, once said: "Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant... The Koran, the Muslim book of scripture, should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth." It is apparent that CAIR's goal is not so much to contribute to the American society, but rather to replace our constitutional republic with an oppressive Islamic theocracy. Their efforts to set up the groundwork for this have been so far successful.
Freedom-loving Americans who oppose premeditated destruction of their cultural and political integrity are being silenced with lawsuits and the myth of "Islamophobia." Their opponents have learned how to take advantage of democratic liberties, such as the right to free speech, free expression, free press, free assembly, freedom of religion, and equal protection before the law. But in a society the Islamists are planning for us, there will be no place for any of these individual freedoms, as evidenced by the Sharia-based totalitarian systems currently being implemented in the Middle East by the international Islamist alliance known as the Muslim Brotherhood.
All world cultures, Western and Muslim alike, share the same moral conviction, which is commonly reflected in their laws: those who show contempt for human life by committing remorseless, premeditated murder justly forfeit the right to their own life. By this moral and legal standard, shouldn't remorseless radical groups that profess contempt for our individual freedoms and actively promote their demise, forfeit their own right to enjoy these very individual freedoms? Shouldn't their premeditated efforts to destroy the rule of law make them ineligible to be protected by these very laws?
These questions are for constitutional scholars to answer, but in today's hostile political climate affecting all branches of the U.S. government, they will fall on deaf ears. The White House has recently admitted to having hundreds of behind-the-scenes meetings with CAIR; Eric Holder's Department of Justice routinely intervenes on CAIR's behalf to greenlight new mosque construction; another Muslim group recently sued NYPD for lawful surveillance; Muslim employees in Minnesota refused to comply with new dress codes that ban long dresses, including burqas, and walked out in protest -- but not before calling CAIR for protective cover.
When Eric Holder's DOJ routinely steps in as muscle for CAIR's ongoing litigation jihad; when Muslim employees are instigated to bring about unreasonable lawsuits against their employers; when American Muslims feel overwhelmed or bullied into silence by radical groups that claim to "represent" them, good and honest Americans must say "enough is enough" and, in the absence of government protection of their interests, resort to individual action and seek effective alternatives.
The Florida chapter of Stop Islamization of America has done just that. Calling CAIR-Florida's flyer "offensive to our law enforcement officers and to Florida business owners," they have created this counter flyer:
- Are you a victim of intimidation by an Islamic group?
- Has your business been threatened by CAIR or any other Muslim organization
- Are you being harassed by frivolous claims of discrimination?
- Do any of your Muslim employees demand preferential treatment, additional breaks for prayer, or dress code accommodation?
- Contact S.I.O.A. at email@example.com
- Stop Islamization of America!
And patriotic, counter-jihad attorneys are standing by.

Sources: Jameer Nelson likely to decline option, become free agent
Jameer Nelson's future has been a complete afterthought during this Dwight drama filled season. That will likely change rather quickly.Jameer Nelson has one additional year on his contract, after this season but it is a player option for between $7.8-$8.6M. Andrew Melnick reports on ESPN Florida that Jameer Nelson is likely to decline his player option for next season.
Melnick writes, "Sources have told ESPN Florida that Nelson will likely opt out of his contract, but the reasons why were not specified."
I have confirmed through sources of my own that Jameer is "leaning heavily" to declining the player option and becoming an unrestricted free agent this summer. Nelson would be required to waive his option within one week of the team's final playoff game.
Why would Jameer walk away from that money? It's easy. SOMEONE will pay him millions of dollars a year, for multiple years this summer. With double-digit teams looking to spend this summer, he gets to pick where he goes.If you think he won't get paid… I'd just refer you to every offseason for the last 15 years.
Coming back presents another year of dealing with the Dwight-what-ifs and with an expiring contract, Jameer would be vulnerable in any trade.
Moving forward, it's still speculation until the final word from Jameer's camp is received. While Jameer's first preference is likely to stay long term in Orlando, it's looking like for the first time that it may just not be the best decision for either party.

Berkley® Gulp! Alive® Minnow
Looks ALIVE, tastes ALIVE and feels ALIVE - because your bait actually ''lives'' in a natural, super-charged GULP! solution! It's softbait in a bait bucket! Because Berkley's super-realistic, biodegradable Gulp! Alive Minnows actually ''live'' in a high-octane Gulp! solution, they absorb up to 20% more attractant. That's 20% more scent, more taste, more action and more reason for fish to snap them up! Each super-charged Gulp Alive Minnow disperses its potent scent like a blood trail in the water, and when the fish-catching is over, you can simply put the bait back in the bucket to recharge for another day! The Berkley Gulp! Alive Baits are sold by net weight and not by count. The 11.2 oz. bucket of 3'' Gulp! Alive Minnows will have approximately 36 baits, and the 12 oz. bucket of the 4'' Gulp!

Have you tried with a jig head? We found success letting it drop to the bottom. wait a to the count of five then jerk a few times while retrieve about 3 feet of line. Repeat the process all the way back to the boat.Top 500 Contributor
I fish the Gulp Alive 3 and 4 inch minnows (black shad and emerald shiner) vertically over cover while river fishing for smallmouth bass. I usually use a 1/4 or 3/8 oz. drop-shot sinker on a 12-18 inch dropper under an Owner down shot hook (size 1 or 2) tied so the hook point is up. If the fish are there I usually get bites before my boat comes to rest.Top 1000 Contributor
I like to use a 1/8 oz round head jig and fish the gulp slow with a light jig action when fishing crappie and bass. When the white bass are on top feeding you use the same set up just speed up the retrieve and just jig the gulp about 1 foot under the water. I have caught many limits of white bass on the 2.5 and 3 inch gulps.I hope this helps.Good luck fishing.Answers

I am just getting into trout fishing in north Georgia. Are these any good? How should I fish them?Answers
I would thread them on with a 2" darning needle {with the eye of the needle 1/4 cut away} and a light split shot to get it down. A loop is put on the end of your line and pulled through the minnow and then hook on a double hook and pull this back so just the hook is exposed.A:

My other buddy used both trout worms & meal worms, & cought small perch, & 1 keeper brooky. I real them in slow, give them a jerk, let them fall a little, & repeat as necessary. I vary the speed sometimes, for a little change. I hook them right through the eyes, in one eye, & out the other. They cast like a dream, & hold up very well. I usually use a # 6 hook. If the river is a little fast, or I find myself snagging alot, I'll switch to a # 8 hook. That seems to help. Also have had lots of luck with bass with theses. I let them fall a little longer with the bass.Details:
if i buy how do i fish thme and what shul i buy to jig them and make the weedlessAnswers

We have fond that the jig head works well with this bait.A:
These can be fished a variety of ways. I mostly use the drop shot method, but the larger 4" minnow can be Texas rigged and fished like a fluke, or soft plastic jerkbait. They can also be put on a regular jighead and bounced, hopped, swam, or dragged across bottom. Texas rig for a weedless presentation or use a finesse wide gap hook or something similar with a weedguard... hope this helps, tight lines!Top 50 Contributor
I think the best way to fish these lures is with a jerking retreive. Give the rod a little jerk, let the minnow drop, jerk and repeat all the way in. If you buy the bigger sized minnows, use the hooks you use with plastic swimbaits and rig these the same way: go through the nose and out underneath then put the point through the belly and barely out of the back, it is weedless.Details:
Does anyone else have this problem. I opened mine and i shut the lid as tight as possible, it just wont stop leaking.Answers
When you first open the container,don not peel off the seal. use a knife or sharp object and cut a hole in the center of the seal big enough to grab your baits. this will stop the leaks. just never peel off the entire seal.OR, as an alternative, I've heard that the liqua bait bottles by Plano will hold any soft plastic that soaks in liquid without leaks.

After hearing of the leakage issues with Gulp Alive, I purchased some plastic food containers with screw-on lids from the grocery store. These containers are leakproof and allow you to split up the Gulp so if you were to knock one over while fishing, you wouldn't lose all the juice which is the key to Gulp Alive's effectiveness. Two years now and no problems with leaks!A:
Use a large baby food jar. Even if you do not have a baby it only cost a $1Top 1000 Contributor
They leak no matter what you do. I have used gulps for a few years now and found the best thing to do is get the lid on tight and try to keep the bucket upright. Great bait and worth the trouble.A:
Yes, mine leak constantly even with the foil insert still in the lid and you can't always count on keeping them upright in transport. I'm trying a piece of gasket materiel in the lid. So far so good. To fix other leaky containers I have wraped those foil inserts in plastic wrap and forced it back into the lid and ran a ring of silicone caulking in the lid then the insert and let it dry before putting the lid back on.A:
Did you leave the foil seal in the lid when you opened the tub? I carefully removed it and placed it into the lid and mine doesnt leak. Just a suggestion.Top 250 Contributor
Yes, Mine also sometimes leak from the side where the handles are. It just happens when you tilt it. Hopefully they will fix this design flaw.

Gustave Caillebotte
Gustave Caillebotte (French: [ɡystav kɑjbɔt]; 19 August 1848 – 21 February 1894) was a French painter, member and patron of the group of artists known as Impressionists, though he painted in a much more realistic manner than many other artists in the group. Caillebotte was noted for his early interest in photography as an art form.
Early life[edit]
Gustave Caillebotte was born on 19 August 1848 to an upper-class Parisian family living in the rue du Faubourg-Saint-Denis. His father, Martial Caillebotte (1799–1874), was the inheritor of the family's military textile business and was also a judge at the Seine department's Tribunal de Commerce. Caillebotte's father was twice widowed before marrying Caillebotte's mother, Céleste Daufresne (1819–1878), who had two more sons after Gustave, René (1851–1876) and Martial (1853–1910).[1] Caillebotte was born at home on rue du Faubourg-Saint-Denis in Paris, and lived there until 1866 when his father had a home built on rue de Miromesnil. Beginning in 1860, the Caillebotte family began spending many of their summers in Yerres, a town on the Yerres River about 12 miles (20 km) south of Paris, where Martial Caillebotte, Sr. had purchased a large property. It was around this time that Caillebotte probably began to draw and paint.
Caillebotte earned a law degree in 1868 and a licence to practise law in 1870. He was also an engineer. Shortly afterwards, he was drafted to fight in the Franco-Prussian war, and served in the Garde Nationale Mobile de la Seine.[2]
Artistic life[edit]
After the war, Caillebotte began visiting the studio of painter Léon Bonnat, where he began to study painting seriously. He developed an accomplished style in a relatively short period of time and had his first studio in his parents' home. In 1873, Caillebotte entered the École des Beaux-Arts, but apparently did not spend much time there.[3] He inherited his father's fortune in 1874 and the remaining sons divided the family fortune after their mother's death in 1878.[4] Around 1874, Caillebotte met and befriended several artists working outside the official French Academy, including Edgar Degas and Giuseppe de Nittis, and attended (but did not participate in) the first Impressionist exhibition of 1874.[5]
The "Impressionists" - also called the "Independents", "Intransigents", and "Intentionalists" - had broken away from the academic painters showing in the annual Salons.[3] Caillebotte made his debut in the second Impressionist exhibition in 1876 showing eight paintings including Les raboteurs de parquet (The Floor Scrapers) (1875), his earliest masterpiece.[6] Its subject matter, the depiction of labourers preparing a wooden floor (thought to have been that of the artist's own studio) was considered "vulgar" by some critics and is the probable reason why it was rejected by the Salon of 1875. At the time, the art establishment only deemed rustic peasants or farmers as acceptable subjects from the working class.[7] The painting now resides at the Musée d'Orsay. A second version, in a more realistic style resembling that of Degas, was also exhibited, demonstrating Caillebotte's range of technique and his adept restatement of the same subject matter.
Caillebotte's style belongs to the School of Realism but was strongly influenced by his Impressionist associates. In common with his precursors, Jean-François Millet and Gustave Courbet, as well his contemporary Degas, Caillebotte aimed to paint reality as it existed and as he saw it, hoping to reduce painting's inherent theatricality. Perhaps because of his close relationship with so many of his peers, his style and technique varies considerably among his works, as if "borrowing" and experimenting, but not really sticking to any one style. At times, he seems very much in the Degas camp of rich-colored realism (especially his interior scenes) and at other times, he shares the Impressionists' commitment to "optical truth" and employs an impressionistic pastel-softness and loose brush strokes most similar to Renoir and Pissarro, though with a less vibrant palette.[8]
The tilted ground common to these paintings is very characteristic of Caillebotte's work, which may have been strongly influenced by Japanese prints and the new technology of photography, though evidence of his actual use of photography is lacking.[9] Cropping and "zooming-in", techniques which are also commonly found in Caillebotte's oeuvre, may also be the result of his interest in photography, but may just as likely derive from his intense interest in perspective effects. A large number of Caillebotte's works also employ a very high vantage point, including View of Rooftops (Snow) (Vue de toits (Effet de neige)) (1878), Boulevard Seen from Above (Boulevard vu d'en haut) (1880), and A Traffic Island (Un refuge, boulevard Haussmann) (1880).[10]
Caillebotte painted many domestic and familial scenes, interiors, and portraits. Many of his paintings depict members of his family; Young Man at his Window (Jeune Homme à la fenêtre) (1875) shows René in the home on rue de Miromesnil; The Orange Trees (Les orangers) (1878), depicts Martial Jr. and his cousin Zoë in the garden of the family property at Yerres; and Portraits in the Country (Portraits à la campagne) (1875) includes Caillebotte's mother along with his aunt, cousin, and a family friend. There are scenes of dining, card playing, piano playing, reading and sewing all executed in an intimate, unobtrusive manner which observes the quiet ritual of upper-class indoor life.[11]
His country scenes at Yerres focus on pleasure boating on the leisurely stream as well as fishing and swimming, and domestic scenes around his country home. Often, he used a soft impressionistic technique reminiscent of Renoir to convey the tranquil nature of the countryside, in sharp contrast to the flatter, smoother strokes of his urban paintings. In Oarsman in a Top Hat (1877), he effectively manages the perspective of a passenger in the back of a row boat facing his rowing companion and the stream ahead, in a manner much more realistic and involving than Manet's Boating (1874).[12]
Caillebotte is best known for his paintings of urban Paris, such as The Europe Bridge (Le Pont de l'Europe) (1876), and Paris Street; Rainy Day (Rue de Paris; temps de pluie, also known as La Place de l'Europe, temps de pluie) (1877). The latter is almost unique among his works for its particularly flat colors and photo-realistic effect which gives the painting its distinctive and modern look, almost akin to American Realists such as Edward Hopper.[13] Many of his urban paintings were quite controversial due to their exaggerated, plunging perspective. In Man on a Balcony (1880), he invites the viewer to share the balcony with his subject and join in observing the scene of the city reaching into the distance, again by using unusual perspective.[14] Showing little allegiance to any one style, many of Caillebotte's other urban paintings produced in the same period, such as The Place Saint-Augustin (1877), are considerably more impressionistic.[15]
Caillebotte's still life paintings focus primarily on food, some at table ready to be eaten and some ready to be purchased, as in a series of paintings he made of meat at a butcher shop.[16] He also produced some floral still life paintings, particularly in the 1890s. Rounding out his subject matter, he painted a few nudes, most notably Nude on a Couch (1882), which, though provocative in its realism, is ambivalent in its mood — neither overtly erotic nor suggestive of mythology — themes common to many female nude paintings of that era.[17]
Later life[edit]
Caillebotte acquired a property at Petit-Gennevilliers, on the banks of the Seine near Argenteuil, in 1881, and moved there permanently in 1888.[18] He ceased showing his work at age 34 and devoted himself to gardening and to building and racing yachts, and spent much time with his brother, Martial, and his friend Renoir. Renoir often came to stay at Petit-Gennevilliers, and engaged in far ranging discussions on art, politics, literature, and philosophy. Never married, Cailebotte appears to have had a serious relationship with Charlotte Berthier, a woman eleven years his junior and of the lower class, to whom he left a sizable annuity.[19]
Caillebotte's painting career slowed dramatically in the early 1890s, when he stopped making large canvases. Caillebotte died of pulmonary congestion while working in his garden at Petit-Gennevilliers in 1894 at age 45, and was interred at Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris.[20]
For many years, Caillebotte's reputation as a painter was superseded by his reputation as a supporter of the arts. Seventy years after his death, however, art historians began reevaluating his artistic contributions. His striking use of varying perspective is particularly admirable and sets him apart from his peers who may have exceeded him in other artistic areas. His art was largely forgotten until the 1950s when his descendents began to sell the family collection. In 1964, The Art Institute of Chicago acquired Paris Street; Rainy Day, spurring American interest in the artist.[21] By the 1970s, his works were being exhibited again and critically reassessed.
Patron and collector[edit]
Caillebotte's sizable allowance, along with the inheritance he received after the death of his father in 1874 and his mother in 1878, allowed him to paint without the pressure to sell his work. It also allowed him to help fund Impressionist exhibitions and support his fellow artists and friends (including Claude Monet, Auguste Renoir, and Camille Pissarro among others) by purchasing their works and, at least in the case of Monet, paying the rent for their studios.
Caillebotte bought his first Monet in 1876 and was especially helpful to that artist's career and financial survival. He was precise in his sponsorship; notably absent are works by Georges Seurat and Paul Gauguin, or any of the Symbolists.[8] In 1890 he played a major role in assisting Claude Monet in organizing a public subscription and in persuading the French state to purchase Édouard Manet's 1863 Olympia.[8][22]
Other interests[edit]
In addition, Caillebotte used his wealth to fund a variety of hobbies for which he was quite passionate, including stamp collecting (his name was inscribed in the Roll of Distinguished Philatelists, and his collection is now in the British Library), orchid horticulture, yacht building, and even textile design (the women in his paintings Madame Boissière Knitting, 1877, and Portrait of Madame Caillebotte, 1877, may be working on patterns created by Caillebotte).[23]
Caillebotte's collection[edit]
In his will, Caillebotte donated a large collection to the French government. This collection included sixty-eight paintings by various artists: Camille Pissarro (nineteen), Claude Monet (fourteen), Pierre-Auguste Renoir (ten), Alfred Sisley (nine), Edgar Degas (seven), Paul Cézanne (five), and Édouard Manet (four).[20]
At the time of Caillebotte's death, the Impressionists were still largely condemned by the art establishment in France, which was dominated by Academic art and specifically the Académie des beaux-arts. Because of this, Caillebotte realised that the cultural treasures in his collection would likely disappear into "attics" and "provincial museums". He therefore stipulated that they must be displayed in the Luxembourg Palace (devoted to the work of living artists), and then in the Louvre.[24]
Unfortunately, the French government would not agree to these terms. In February 1896, they finally negotiated terms with Renoir, who was the will's executor, under which they took thirty-eight of the paintings to the Luxembourg. The installation constituted the first presentation of the Impressionists in a public venue in France.[25] The remaining twenty-nine paintings (one, a Degas, was taken by Renoir in payment for his services as executor) were offered to the French government twice more, in 1904 and 1908, and were both times refused. When the government finally attempted to claim them in 1928, the bequest was repudiated by the widow of Caillebotte's brother Martial Caillebotte. Most of the remaining works were purchased by Albert C. Barnes, and are now held by the Barnes Foundation.[26]
Forty of Caillebotte's own works are now held by the Musée d'Orsay. His Man on a Balcony, Boulevard Haussmann (Homme au balcon, boulevard Haussmann) (1880), sold for more than US$14.3 million in 2000.

For researchers at other New York institutions, we supply shRNAs as viral supernatant (106 TU/ml) only.
If you are interested in using shRNAs for a screening application, please contact us to discuss options. There are a number of ways that the shRNA Facility can help:
The shRNA Core Facility has the following equipment available for assays:
A critical part of an RNAi experiment is confirmation of knockdown. In some cases this can be accomplished by Western blot or other analysis of the protein product. However, in many cases, quantitation at the level of the mRNA is necessary. The shRNA Facility can assess knockdown of targets at the mRNA level using the branched DNA assay. This assay is based on hybridization of the mRNA species of interest in a cell lysate to a specific set of primers, with signal amplification accomplished through use of a branched DNA reagent.
We are available to consult on RNAi experiments and offer our expertise on experimental design and data analysis.

In addition, the economic census does include the activities of private contractors that may be carrying out governmental functions on contract. For example:
There is a separate Census of Governments, which provides some data on revenue, expenditures, and employment for various governmental functions, such as streets and highways, solid waste management, sewerage, electric power, transit, and local libraries. At the same time, these data are not reported on an establishment basis and are not classified by NAICS.

Terry Ryan said Darin Mastroianni, Joe Benson and Aaron Hicks will all get chances to compete for #MNTwins' CF job.
Printable View
Terry Ryan said Darin Mastroianni, Joe Benson and Aaron Hicks will all get chances to compete for #MNTwins' CF job.
Rick Ankiel could make sense, if no one else offers him a guaranteed a starting job. He could plausibly win a starting job, platoon with Mastroianni, or be a bench player/pinch hitter.
I think it could happen, if the Twins first thinned out remaining buyers by dealing Mastro, Willingham, and possibly Hicks.
NYY: want to stay under the cap by 2014 = no big multiyear deals to Bourn or Hamilton
TX: Full outfield if dealt Willingham.
LA: Full outfield
LAD: Full outfield
There were three or 4 teams in on Revere, according to Lavelle. The Phils have invested in Revere so they are out on Bourn. Of the remaining teams, possibly one could be sold on Mastroianni. After that, Willingham should be able to deal to TX, as they seem less than thrilled with the prospect of 4 more years of Josh Hamilton.
It would be risky. It would leave the Twins with no outfielders, but it would make them the big fish, in arguably the best spot to make offers to Bourn and/or Hamilton.
If it was my call... I'm not doing it... One thing has changed for me tho... Before... I wasn't very interested in Middle Infield. I'm now much more interested in middle infield...
Go overpay for Sanchez... Or Jackson or whoever you like Mr.Terry Ryan... Sign a cheap OF'er for a year if you want to delay Hicks a little and jump into the Middle Infield pool if you like. We got the money for all of that.
Umm... Not Escobar or Drew. I still don't want attitude problem guys no matter what they OPS.
One word, why?
You obviously didn't read my previous post and answer to his question. You are right that Revere for Worley is a wash but you neglect to consider that the Twins needed to add multiple starters this offseason. Now they don't need to spend 6-8M/yr on a Blanton type and that money can instead go towards a better starter.
Probably cause it allowed us to fill a spot in this year's rotation for almost nothing (difference between Revere's and Worley's contract) so now the available money doesn't have to be spread out so much, allowing the quality of pitchers to, hypothetically, go up
I don't think it's a terrible idea, assuming it's the right kind of contract. Of course, the right kind of contract would be a 1-year, team-friendly-ish deal with the assumption that we flip him at the trade deadline. I get the feeling that's what Theo Epstein is doing with Scott Baker and Nate Schierholtz: sign player to a 1-year deal; hope player performs pretty well the first half of the season; trade player for some kind of prospect. With the market seemingly shrinking for Michael Bourn, it's not out of the realm of possibility that he settles for a 1-year deal this winter.
For one year only and only if the Twins trade Mourneau or Willingham.
Can't see it. Even for one year, Bourn's price wouldn't drop so low the Twins would be interested.
Isn't Revere just a younger version of Bourn? Decent BA, low OBP, fast, above average defender (overall, yes Revere's arm stinks) very little power. Bourn doesn't seem to be much better than Revere and Span is better.
Correct. This is the one and only way it makes sense. Take advantage of the market. If the center fielder market bubble has now burst and we can sign him for next to nothing and then have the option of trading him away at the trade deadline for more pieces, ok I'm a buyer.
But this is not going to happen with Boras as the agent. Buy low, sell high! Works in the stock market, it is difficult in the FA market and I think our money could be better spent (invested) in other areas.
10+ mill a year and give up a draft pick for a guy that's not much better than Span or Revere? Makes perfect sense!
Span and Revere aren't on the team anymore.
If the Twins can deal Willingham for pitching, then they may find Bourn or Hamilton would provide as great, or a greater upgrade over their replacement, than Marcum, Jackson, or Sanchez would be to the rotation, for the money.
But, almost certainly, Bourn or Hamilton would be a greater upgrade, for the money, than would those pitcher in the 3rd tier who are essentially replacement level guys already - Correia, Myers, Saudners. The Twins have plenty of replacement or near-replacement starting pitchers already
Why would Bourn & Hamilton want to come to mn? So you can trade them? Get real, that is why they got agents!
Which pick is lost, the elite first-rounder? Or would it be a lower one? I never can remember the rules concerning this. No way I'd sign him and lose a tippy-top draft pick. I'm less jealous about conserving a sandwich-first-rounder and below, but I don't think Bourn is the guy I'd give up such a pick for either.
I think the top 12 or so are protected. They would give up their second pick as I understand it which would be around #40.

Summer Session Questions and Answers
What types of financial aid are available to current Yale College students who take classes through Yale Summer Session?
U.S. Citizens and Permanent Residents
If you enroll in at least two course credits and you did not borrow the maximum Federal Stafford Loan for your grade level ($5,500 for freshmen, $6,500 for sophomores and $7,500 for juniors and seniors) during the academic year, you may request a Federal Stafford Loan for the balance of your eligibility.
If you have borrowed the maximum Federal Stafford loan, you may pursue funding through one of the available alternative loan programs. Please contact Student Financial Services for information.
International Students
International students, including Canadians, may request an International (Yale) Student Loan.
What type of aid is available to applicants who are not current undergraduates at Yale University?
If you are not a current undergraduate at Yale University, you may apply for an alternative loan. Please contact Student Financial Services for information.
Is there any scholarship aid available for summer session?
The Yale Summer Session Office awards a limited number of partial tuition scholarships on the basis of both financial need and academic excellence. Student Financial Services does not award any gift aid for summer school.
May I receive financial aid if I plan to take classes at another college or university?
Not normally, but you may want to contact the financial aid office at the school you plan to attend to determine what funds they may have available.
What type of aid is available to Yale students studying abroad for the summer?
Freshmen, sophomores, and juniors receiving Yale Scholarship in the spring term and attending one of the designated International Study Award Programs (ISA) are eligible for an ISA award. The amount is based on the percentage of need as determined for the spring semester and may also include an amount equal to the summer income contribution. Detailed information regarding the ISA program can be found online at www.yale.edu/isa.
If you are studying abroad through another school or program, there is no financial aid available through Yale and Yale will not be able to certify any federal, state, or private grants or loans on your behalf.
Can my parents borrow on my behalf for costs associated with Yale Summer Session?
The supplemental loan program (Federal PLUS) is available to parents of Yale students attending Yale Summer Session, providing that the parent borrower is a U.S. citizen or a permanent resident and the student is enrolled in at least two course credits.
How much can I borrow to cover my summer educational expenses?
The maximum you may borrow is directly tied to your cost of education. Refer to the Yale Summer Session web site for additional information about the costs associated with your plans. Expenses considered by Student Financial Services include: application fee, tuition, room and meals, plus an allowance for books, personal and travel expenses.
Is there a deadline for applying for financial aid to attend summer session?
The priority deadline for submitting a complete application is Friday, May 7, 2010. Applications will be accepted after that date, but we cannot give any assurances that you will receive a response before your classes begin if you miss the May 7 deadline.
If I attend summer session, it seems unlikely that I will be able to meet the standard student income contribution Yale expects of returning students. What options do I have?
Because of the time and financial commitment to attend summer session, we understand that you may not be able to meet the student income contribution that will be part of your 2010-11 financial aid award. You can request additional student loan(s) and /or term-time earnings to replace your student income contribution by contacting Student Financial Services.

Spam You! Series: Statistics and Background of Electronic Spam
<< by Catherine Potts on November 3rd, 2009
Ew. Spam. It's basically the compilation of what's left over from the "good" parts. By definition Spam is unwanted. Though, there are those who eat it up and those who make money creating it.
Welcome to my series of blog posts that will address the omnipresent spam. There are a lot of layers to this topic so we'll start on the basic level and get more involved as we progress.
What is spam?
…the abuse of electronic messaging systems (including most broadcast media, digital delivery systems) to send unsolicited bulk messages indiscriminately. While the most widely recognized form of spam is e-mail spam, the term is applied to similar abuses in other media: instant messaging spam, Usenet newsgroup spam, Web search engine spam, spam in blogs,wiki spam, online classified ads spam, mobile phone messaging spam, Internet forum spam, junk fax transmissions, social networking spam, and file sharing network spam.

Good morning,all. Being from the South,I know how to make chicken&dumplings.Does anyone know how to make dove dumplings?My brother ask me to make some and I'm not sure if I use chicken broth or maybe beef broth?I will appreciate any advise anyone has.
I am now going to provide protective covering for the doves that live out front of my place.... poor souls!! :cry:
Great recipe for a cold winter night!
It looks healthy too (if I use the milk instead of cream!)
This is the recipe I use, but you can 1/2 it for a smaller family. I use Bisquick for the dumplings.
5 cups chicken broth
14 chicken thighs, skinned
7 medium carrots, peeled and cut in chunks
4 potatoes, peeled and cut in 1" cubes
2 cups boiling onions, peeled
3 Tbsp. butter
3 stalks celery, chopped
1 onion, chopped
8 oz. (250 g) small button mushrooms
1/3 cup flour
1/2 - 1 tsp. dried thyme or tarragon
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup frozen peas
1/4 cup whipping cream ( or milk)
The Dumplings
1 1/2 cups flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
2/3 cup milk
2 Tbsp. oil
1 egg, slightly beaten
1 Tbsp. chopped parsley (optional)
To Make Stew: In a large dutch oven, bring broth to a boil. Add chicken, cover and simmer over medium-low heat for 30 minutes. Transfer to a plate and cool. Cut meat into bite-sized pieces. Add carrots and potatoes to broth; cover and cook for 10 minutes. Add onions and simmer, covered until onions are tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer vegetables to a plate. Pour broth into a large measuring cup, adding more broth if necessary to make 5 cups. Using the same pot, melt butter and cook celery, onion and mushrooms, stirring often until softened. Add flour, thyme, salt and pepper. Cook and stir for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in broth and bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer, stirring often, for about 5 minutes. Return chicken and juices to pot. Stir in vegetable mixture, peas and cream.
To Make Dumplings: In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt. Mix milk, oil and egg together and add to flour mixture. Stir until dry ingredients are just moistened. Drop dumpling dough by rounded tablespoonfuls onto boiling stew, leaving space around each. Reduce heat, cover tightly (don't peek!) and simmer 15 minutes, or until dumplings are fluffy and no longer doughy on bottom. Serves 8.
I have never made chicken & dumplings. Would you share your southern recipe with us?
OK.... I was hoping when you said dove dumplings, the "dove" part was like the dove in Dove chocolate or Dove soap -- you know, just a name, doesn't actually contain dove. But I found this recipe on the Net, and... well.... they really are DOVE dumplings!! :eek:
Hope this helps:
[B]Dove Dumplings[/B]
10 - 12 dove breasts
1/4 cup oil
salt to taste
pepper to taste
1/4 chopped onion
2 cups flour
1 tsp. salt
1/4 cup shortening
2 eggs
1/4 cup milk
2 cubes chicken bullion
Rinse and dry the doves. Brown in the oil. Drain.
Place doves in a pot and just barely cover with water. Add the salt, pepper and onion. Cover and simmer until the meat is tender.
Combine the flour and the salt in a bowl. Add the shortening and mix until crumbly. Stir in the eggs and milk.
Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/8 thick. Cut into 2 inch squares.
Remove doves from the pot. Add the chicken bullion and bring to a boil.
Drop in the dumplings one at a time. Cook about 20 minutes or until tender.
Add doves back to the pot, cover and simmer for about 10 minutes.

XTERRA Florida Trail Run Series Champion: Liza HashAs her running peers found out in the XTERRA Florida Trail Run Series, Liza Hash likes to get things done early. Her basic strategy during each race of the 2011 XTERRA Florida Series was to start fast and try not to look back. It worked wonders, as Hash emerged as the top overall female runner in the inaugural XTERRA Florida Series. She went undefeated in the women's 35-39 age division, and was also the top overall female at two of the three races in the series. "I have always liked trail runs, but I did learn that I do much better if I start out in the front," said Hash, who is 35 and resides in Inglis, Fla. "If you are in the middle or further back at the start of a race, it is often hard to get around some of the other runners and that can slow you down a lot." In keeping with her theme, Hash has already registered to race in the XTERRA Trail Run National Championship at the Snowbasin Resort, Ogden, Utah, on Sept. 25. It will be her first attempt at a national age group title. "I am (originally) from the Northwest, so I am familiar with the weather and altitude," Hash said. "I to go Portland, Oregon, every year to do a race called Hood to Coast … I often run faster in Portland than I do in Florida, so I imagine Utah will be the same." The XTERRA Florida Series concluded in early May, and Hash said she has not competed in any other races since then. Instead, she has trained both in the gym and out in the Florida heat. "Lots of lunges and squats to adjust for the hills, and nothing is harder than running 95 percent humidity," she said. Hash and her husband own a private water utilities company and some rental properties in Florida, so she spends much of her day out in the sun "digging or building." "Being out in the heat all day makes it easier to run in it," she added. Hash will be one of hundreds runners who will be competing at the XTERRA Trail Run National Championship on Sept. 25. There is no qualifying process for the race, so runners of all ages and skill levels from across the country are eligible to enter. The 21-kilometer course will serve as the national championship course, but there will also be a 10-kilometer trail and a 5-kilometer trail that runners can enter. To register for the XTERRA Trail Run National Championship, please visit the event site HERE. |

February 12, 2002 SMU TO MOVE RUDOLPH W. GIULIANI LECTURE TO BIGGER VENUE; TICKETS AVAILABLE DALLAS (SMU) -- The April 8 lecture by Rudolph W. Giuliani at Southern Methodist University is being moved to a larger venue on campus because of greater than expected demand to hear the popular former mayor of New York City. Originally, Giuliani was to appear in SMU's McFarlin Auditorium, where the Tate Lecture Series traditionally is held. Tickets for the special lecture, however, sold out within hours of going on sale Jan. 2. "We are pleased to schedule this special visit of Rudolph Giuliani for our important Tate audience and to broaden access to the greater community by holding the event in Moody Coliseum," said SMU President R. Gerald Turner. "In the aftermath of the September 11 attacks, Mayor Giuliani taught us valuable lessons about leadership and courage during a time of crisis. As the world continues to combat the threat of terrorism, we will learn even more as he shares his reflections firsthand." Giuliani will deliver The American Airlines Lecture of the Willis M. Tate Distinguished Lecture Series Monday, April 8, at 8 p.m. in Moody Coliseum, 6024 Airline Road. "The employees of American Airlines were inspired by the leadership of Rudolph Giuliani during a time of great loss for New York City, the country and our company," said Don Carty, American Airlines chairman and president. "American Airlines has long valued our relationship with Mayor Giuliani, and we respect the leadership values he brought to the city of New York -- the same leadership values and objectives we embrace at American." Tickets are now available and may be ordered by phone at 214-768-8283 or by email at www.tateseries.com. Most major credit cards will be accepted. |
