Disability Equality Scheme 2007 - 2010
The Disability Equality Scheme (DES) 2007- 2010 is Birmingham City Council's framework document which outlines our commitment to fulfill the statutory duty around disability equality.
The Scheme covers all relevant services, functions and policies of Birmingham City Council, bringing them within a single coherent framework and action plan. It also makes clear how the authority plans to meet both the General and Specific Duties and summarises our overall approach to disability equality and the link to our corporate aims and objectives.
Key Issues
Robust mechanisms to enable disabled people to influence the design of services
That information presented by the City Council is accessible to disabled people.
That social care and health functions monitor, understand and act on their disability equalities responsibilities.
More accessible housing is available for disabled people including improved adaptations of properties and provision of housing related support to promote independent living.
Investment in the City's transportation system to enable disabled people to travel safely and freely.
That disabled children and young people have fair access to educational opportunities and services, so reaching their full potential.
Better representation for disabled people in the City Council workforce.
Better access to the environment and City Council services by disabled people.
That procedures for identifying discrimination and promoting inclusion are robust.
Encouraging the active participation of disabled people in sport, arts and other community based activities for recreation and personal development.
Please see the attachments below for supporting papers
Our equality schemes will be replaced later on this year with a Single Equality Framework which will cover fairness, equality, diversity and community cohesion.

A word about our beer selection:
We offer an ever-expanding selection of around 700 specialty, craft-brewed, and imported beers. This array represents beers from at least 30 different countries -- most notably Germany, Czech Republic, Britain, Ireland, Scotland -- as well as including a cornucopia of over 125 Belgian beers. This makes John's one of the most diverse outlets for Belgian beer on this continent. On the other hand, if you're thirsty for a hard-to-find beer from Argentian, Italy or Croatia -- no problem! Closer to home, you'll find a dizzying variety of at least 175 specialty domestic microbrews in the store at any point in time. Microbrews include rotating seasonal specialties, so you'll want to come in often to see what we've added recently.

There are no stupid questions. Teachers in the classroom often use this didactic phrase to remind us that if we have a question about something, we shouldn't be afraid to ask. And when it comes to the most important subject of all, the same rule applies.
As Christians, we can be timid in regards to our questions and doubts about God, the Bible, and living the Christian life. But asking hard questions actually prepares us for our task as followers of Jesus to always be "prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you" (1 Peter 3:15). At Focal Point, we aren't afraid to ask tough questions. And we are firmly committed to studying and searching God's Word, the authority on truth, for answers.
As a thank you for your gift this month, I would like to send you a copy of an excellent book called The Questions Christians Hope No One Will Ask. Author Mark Mittelberg provides answers to tough questions like "How can I trust in Christianity when so many Christians are hypocrites?" and "Why should I think that heaven really exists—and that God sends people to hell?" You will also find helpful tips for how we can respond to these challenges with truth and grace. The book even includes a chapter on the questions our friends need us to ask them.

In Afghanistan, Panetta Says Mission Continues
At Camp Leatherneck in southern Afghanistan today, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta urged U.S. military personnel to not be deterred from their mission and continue "to make life difficult" for the Taliban and al-Qaida, says NPR's Larry Abramson, who is travelling with Panetta.
The Pentagon chief's words come, of course, in the wake of the murders Sunday of 16 Afghan civilians — allegedly by a U.S. Army staff sergeant. And they follow the burnings by U.S. forces last month of some Qurans, which set off protests and led to the murders of at least four U.S. military personnel. American officials have apologized for the burnings and say they were unintentional.
According to Larry, while there have been reports that some U.S. officials hope to speed up the planned withdrawal of U.S. and NATO forces from Afghanistan (most are scheduled to be gone by 2014), Pentagon officials traveling with Panetta say the game plan is not changing. Panetta is due to meet with Afghan President Hamid Karzai on Thursday. "You can be certain that the Quran burning incident and the shooting on Sunday are going to come up," Larry tells our Newscast Desk.
Panetta's visit, while unannounced until he landed in the country for security purposes, had been scheduled before the murders.
Meanwhile, the BBC reports that:
"As Mr. Panetta arrived in Afghanistan, a motorcycle bomb blast in Kandahar city killed at least one Afghan intelligence officer and wounded three others. In another incident on Wednesday, a roadside bomb attack in the Marjah district of Helmand killed eight civilians travelling in a minibus, a spokesman for the provincial governor told the BBC."

This recipe is easy to prepare, tasty and gives you "something a little different than the usual for a Tuesday night" said a friend who gave me the recipe.
And it's true. This was warm and comforting on a winter's night and took about 15 minutes to put together, not counting the baking time. As an added bonus, the whole house smelled wonderful.
Greek Baked Chicken
4 large chicken breasts, skin removed
salt & pepper
1 T olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
16 oz. container plain Greek-style yogurt
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
2 T flour
2 oz. feta cheese, crumbled
2 T dill (fresh or dried)
2 T fresh mint leaves (optional - if you have it)
3 cloves garlic, crushed
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Dry chicken breasts with a paper towel, and season them with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a saute pan and brown the chicken on both sides (you are not cooking it through) for about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken to a large oven-proof casserole dish and place so they do not overlap. Add the onion to the saute pan and cook until soft. Place the onion on top of the chicken.
In a bowl, combine the yogurt, eggs, flour, feta, dill, mint and garlic. Mix well.
Spread the yogurt mixture on top of the onions and chicken. Sprinkle the top with Parmesan cheese.
Bake for about 45-50 minutes, uncovered, until hot and bubbly and lightly browned on top.
This is delicious served with hot cooked noodles or rice.
Serves 4.

First Lady Michelle Obama met with students significantly impacted by violence at Chicago's Harper High School on Wednesday, and talked about youth empowerment.
Authorities said 29 current or former Harper students have been shot in the past year, eight of them fatally. Mrs. Obama met privately with a small group of teens and counselors directly affected by the youth violence.
FULL SPEECH: First lady speaks at youth violence luncheon
Obama said "Hey Harper High" as she walked in at Harper High School on Chicago's South Side. She told the students that she's proud of them and that she wanted to hear what they had to say about their school and community.
The first lady stressed education too, telling the students the best thing they could do in life "is really be serious about education." She told them that if they stay focused they "can make it happen."
Students say their intimate talk became emotional as they and the First Lady shed tears at the stories of survival and hardship in their neighborhood.
She told the students that she grew up in a nearby neighborhood and "there isn't much distance between me and you."
It was an emotional day for Michelle Obama as she spoke about conversations she had as classmates prepared to say goodbye to Hadiya Pendleton earlier this year.
"Today, I want to say the exact same thing to all of you," Obama said. "I want to urge you to come together and do something worthy of Hadiya Pendleton's memory and worthy of our children's future."
One student told FOX 32 News that the visit can only help.
"After school there might be a fight about putting something on Facebook, or just because they don't like each other," he said. "They just go get guns. Other people might talk bit or just leave it alone (in other cities). Here, the violence is just getting worse. I hope something changes because we're just losing kids and it's not fair at all - to their parents or to us."
Senior Donte Tanner says the time his classmates spent with Michelle Obama was the best thing to happen in Englewood in a long time.
"Her being down to earth and so genuine and truthful brought out what politics really should be doing," Tanner says.
Parent Carolyn Collins stood outside Harper High School on Wednesday afternoon as Obama talked with students inside. The 46-year-old woman said her daughter attends the school. Collins says she hopes the first lady's visit to one of the city's more violent neighborhoods will remind the rest of the country what local children go through.
Nearby, 11-year-old Dejuan Cox wasn't quite so hopeful. He said it was nice that the first lady visited, but he thinks the violence will continue. And 11-year-old Kiera Barden waited outside the school too. She said she came to see the first lady because she wrote a report on Obama.
Harper High is located in the city's impoverished Englewood community. Of its approximately 600 students, the majority are considered "low-income." Approximately 22% take special education courses. Most students walking to the school pass vacant lots and boarded-up homes.
Donte Tanner is the class of 2013's valedictorian. He has had perfect attendance all four years and in spite of his surroundings, he's graduating in June with a 4.5 grade point average. He says if life is about choices and he wants to succeed.
"You know, I could let a lot of things be an excuse like other students are going through," Tanner says. "Like, I could say my father, I don't know who that is. I could use that as an excuse to be out here on these streets but I don't. I use that as motivation."
The First Lady also spoke at a luncheon hosted by Mayor Rahm Emanuel before visiting the high school. Mrs. Obama and Emanuel urged business leaders to donate more money to help the city's at-risk youth.
Emanuel asked the audience at an exclusive luncheon Wednesday in downtown Chicago for help raising $50 million. The mayor wants the private donations for a program he announced earlier this year called Get In Chicago. Two-thirds of that amount has been raised.
"All these kids just need a chance," Emanuel said. "And as I call, to bridge that gap of where they physically are and the promise of the city they can see down in downtown. "
In an often emotional speech, the first lady told the audience that resources matter and the money they give to neighborhood youth programs can save children's lives.
Just in case the message wasn't clear, the audience sat down to a salmon lunch and a card asking for donations. The card had optional boxes to check for donation amounts from $1,000 to $1 million.
With Congress poised to begin debate Thursday on firearms restrictions, the White House is mounting a vigorous push for action this week.
President Barack Obama spoke Monday with families of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting victims, who have launched a lobbying campaign of their own. Vice President Joe Biden is also promoting the administration's plans this week.

Referee explains Calvin Johnson no-catch ruling
The referee of the Bears-Lions game explains the controversial ruling on what appeared to be a last-minute go-ahead touchdown catch by Calvin Johnson.
Bears escape opener with controversial 19-14 win over the Lions
Jay Cutler had 372 yards passing and threw a late 28-yard touchdown pass to Matt Forte, and the Chicago Bears beat the Detroit Lions 19-14 in the season opener after Calvin Johnson's apparent touchdown catch was ruled an incompletion.
Lions QB Stafford out with shoulder injury, Hill in
Lions QB Matthew Stafford left the team's 2010 season opener with a shoulder injury after a hit from Bears DE Julius Peppers before halftime. Backup QB Shaun Hill took over for Stafford in the second half.
Lions glad to have versatile Havner
Detroit envisions multiple roles for recent waiver acquisition Spencer Havner, a linebacker/tight end/fullback who caught four TD passes as a Packer last season.
Hype for Lions' Best growing wildly
For a second straight season the Lions have an offensive rookie who quickly is earning the respect of the veteran players. Last season, it was QB Matthew Stafford; this year, it's RB Jahvid Best.
Lions acquire CB Smith from Broncos
The Lions have acquired disappointing CB DeAngelo Smith from the Broncos in exchange for TE Dan Gronkowski and an undisclosed draft pick.
Lions cut OT Jansen, CB Bly
Jon Jansen, who was pushing starting ORT Gosder Cherilus not long ago, was cut by the Lions on Saturday, along with veteran CB Dré Bly.
NFL fines Lions DT Suh $7,500

Lions place DE DeVries on I.R.
Lions veteran DE Jared DeVries (knee) was placed on injured reserve Friday. The team also signed S John Wendling and DT Jaron Baston.
Lions' secondary becoming a primary concern
The Lions' best defensive back, FS Louis Delmas, has battled a groin injury and hasn't played much this preseason, one of several concerns the team has in the secondary.
Lions claim OT Polumbus off waivers
The Lions beat two other teams in claiming OT Tyler Polumbus off waivers on Thursday, adding depth to the tackle position.
What can Stafford do in second season?
Lions QB Matthew Stafford, who struggled more than not as a rookie, has a chance to be very productive in his second season.
Source: Seahawks trade DE Jackson to Lions
The Seahawks have traded DE Lawrence Jackson to the Lions, sources tell PFW.
Curry has been placed on injured reserve with a torn right ACL.||||||| It's a damaging blow for Curry, who won't have a chance to prove himself with the Rams. Curry was one of the team's top special teams players and blocked a punt Sunday before feeling something pop in the knee while making a cut."He was really coming on," coach Steve Spagnuolo said. "He had done a lot of good things."

Presbyopia is a condition in which the lens of the eye loses its ability to focus, making it difficult to see objects up close.
In the young eye, the lens needs to change its length or shape to focus on objects that are close. The ability of the lens to change shape is called the elasticity of the lens. This elasticity is slowly lost as people age. The result is a slow decrease in the ability of the eye to focus on nearby objects.
People usually notice the condition at around age 45, when they realize that they need to hold reading materials further away in order to focus on them. Presbyopia is a natural part of the aging process and it affects everyone.
The health care provider will perform a general eye examination, including measurements to determine a prescription for glasses or contact lenses.
Tests may include:
There is no cure for presbyopia, but it can be corrected with glasses or contact lenses. In some cases, adding bifocals to an existing lens prescription is enough. As the ability to focus up close worsens, the bifocal prescription needs to be strengthened.
Around age 65, the eyes have usually lost most of the elasticity needed to focus up close. However, it will still be possible to read with the help of the right prescription. Even so, you may find that you need to hold reading materials farther away, and you may need larger print and more light by which to read.
People who do not need glasses for distance vision may only need half glasses or reading glasses.
People who are nearsighted may be able to take off their distance glasses to read.
With the use of contact lenses, some people choose to correct one eye for near and one eye for far vision. This is called "monovision," and it eliminates the need for bifocals or reading glasses, but it can affect depth perception.
Sometimes monovision can be produced through laser vision correction. There are also bifocal contact lenses that can correct for both near and far vision in both eyes.
New surgical procedures can also provide solutions for people who do not want to wear glasses or contacts.
Vision can be corrected with glasses or contact lenses.
If it is not corrected, vision difficulty
that gets worse over time can cause problems with driving, lifestyle, or work.
Call your health care provider or ophthalmologist if you have eye strain or are less able to focus on close objects.
There is no proven prevention for presbyopia.

I applaud my mother for embracing the current and progressive technology. Going to the Apple store with her becomes an event which eventually transforms into a lunch date.
She's easily entranced with the newest versions of iPhones, iPads and MacBooks. Watching her stand at attention next to the techie Apple employees in their colored shirts makes me giggle. She's like a kid in a candy store, grasping each tasty recommendation the store suggests.
Her most recent discovery was the stylus for the iPad. It's a fabulous investment considering she has habitual sticky fingers from the sugar, honey, organic agave and syrup necessary for garnishing food and tea.
Her screens and keyboards were often littered with fingerprints, smudged organic material and paint (She's a plein air artist).
With her Apple toys up to date, the encounters with technical dilemmas are frequent. She often figures them out on her own, but at times, she'll ask me or my husband, George. While watching Netflix (with headphones) on her iPad, she'll loudly ask a random question with scrunched eyebrows. She often bangs her finger on the master key when she's confidently completed a task.
Yet, sometimes, the questions don't stop ... similar to when a 2-year-old continues asking why the sky is blue, if dogs can talk or where babies come from. You breathe deep, remind yourself to be patient, and answer the questions best you can. If I can't help her, or need a break, I'll bring George in for the relief effort.
An example of a recent technical conflict was her computer's inability to send photos.
"I'm trying to email some pictures. My computer's not letting me."
"Not letting you? How many photos are you trying to send, Mom?"
"Are you sending them as a link?"
"No, as attachments."
I didn't know weather to laugh or cry. A handful of photos can easily be sent as attachments, but seventy-six (at the same time) takes an act of God.
More fun-in-action is listening to conversations while she's on the phone with tech support. My mother's email and password weren't working properly. She tried closing all the applications, restarting the computer, creating a new password and incorrectly answered the security questions, causing her to be "locked" out of any further attempts.
She sat at the table trying to follow the rep's instructions, hoping to remedy the problem. She put the poor guy on speaker phone, speaking loudly enough for the dog to get up and sleep in the other room. I particularly enjoyed how she continued to ask questions as if the rep were standing next to her.
"Mom, he can't see your screen."
After much trial and error, the dilemma was fixed! If the rep had lived near by, my mother would have brought him homemade scones. One of the many traits I admire about my mother is her natural ability to show appreciation. She praises publicly, writes notes, gives unconditionally and continuously practices random acts of kindness.
And although I love to make fun of my mom and her technical hiccups, I'm certain she genuinely enjoys the humor in it.

The Town of Thira, clinging to a cliff, the inside of a volcano caldera, above Santorini Bay, Greece
The Town of Thira Santorini
The view towards Thira (also called Fira) from the top of the cable car station. Most cruise ships anchor in the bay, and transfer passengers to the small dock below the town by tender. From the dock you have the choice of cable car, donkey ride or a 600 step climb to reach the town. Perched on a cliff above the azure seas of the Aegean sea, the whitewashed houses and churches make a beautiful sight.
Gold Street, Thira
The main street of Thira, Odos Ipapantis (translated as 'Gold Street'), starts just below the top station of the cable. As its name implies, many jewelers line the street, selling opulent shining jewelry. Santorini goldsmiths are famous thoughout the Mediterranean.
Ancient Thira
The majestic ruins of Ancient Thira are situated on Mesa Vouno, over 1000 ft above sea level. The city was established in the 9th century B.C. by Dorian colonists led by Theras, and was inhabited until the early Byzantine period. The preserved ruins belong to the classical Greek and Roman phases of the city.
Red Beach
Read Beach is made up of red and black volcanic sands, and sits in a magnificent location under soaring cliffs, facing the blue clear seas of the Aegean.
The Prehistoric City of Akrotiri
Akrotiri is the most important prehistoric settlement in the Eastern Mediterranean. Often nicknamed 'Prehistoric Pompeii', the city dates back to early Minoan times and was destroyed by a volcano in 1522 B.C. Protected under a metal roof, only a small part of the archaeological excavation work is on show.

If any group of women can qualify for special forces...then put these qualified women together in their own special forces group...separate from a men's special forces group....and send them into harms way.

I don't agree with it until I look at the big picture. Men around are not rushing into the armed services to be in infantry. Most go for support. For those who sign up for infantry there are some who don't make it. If the standards are not changed I don't have a problem with it. If they do change the standards that is a cause for concern. I don't see a lot women beating down the door to be infantry.
" It's a privacy issue...relieving one's self in front of your comrades...personal hygiene...etc."I would much rather relieve myself in front of a women than I would another man.
So, does this mean women will be able to attempt Ranger school? And, if so, will they have to meet the same 90% PT standards (like 65 p/u's, 75 s/u's, 13 min 2mile run) like incoming males have to, to even enter Ranger school?Now, if the women are given a more leniant guideline for attending/completing Ranger school, shlt will hit the fan.

John Deere Model LA
You know, green, blue, orange, etc...
Moderator: Team Cub
John Deere Model LA
I am Cubless after having and enjoying the '56 Loboy we had from '06-'09. Sold it to fund one of the many ongoing DIY home projects. The kids were not happy and to make amends, I purchased a '47 Cub last October. For no particular or rational reason, I just could not get the kids to love this machine as they did the Loboy. They wanted their old Cub back.
So this past spring, I sold the '47 and told them I would go looking for another Loboy. After poking around for a few months, I found an advertisement for a '56 Loboy with FH (just like our old one) about one hour away. I told the gentleman I would be there on Friday. He said there were a couple of interested buyers so he would not hold it. No problem, I will take my chances. Got to his place and the Cub was gone. Fifteen minutes prior to my arrival, the Cub was being hauled away.
While speaking to this gentleman, he was telling me that if I was interested, he has a JD model LA he had been working on for a few years but has lost interest. He would sell it to me. I was disappointed and knew little of JD tractors so I politely refused but said I would read up on the model. After a couple of weeks and talking with the kids (no Loboys in our sites), I told him I would be interested. Drove to his place and purchased the LA. Turned out to be $800 less than the Loboy. My wife was happy.
If you are a true JD collector, this model LA is missing the tag, a few sheet metal parts and it currently has no electrics. The engine has been redone and and it cranks just fine. I was told it is a 1944 Model LA.
Anyway, these are the pictures. The kids and I are enjoying it. Still not the same as our original Loboy. We will have one again someday.

Re: John Deere Model LA
Cool tractor I have seen them at shows but have never been around one. However, I do have a quick little story about one. A relative of my B-I-L told me that a John Deere LA was the first tractor they ever had on the farm. He was used to cultivating corn with horses and would drift off to sleep as he rode the cultivator. The horse would just stop when they came to the end of the row. Well the first time he cultivated with the tractor he drifted off to sleep. The tractor didn't know to stop at the end of the row and he woke up as the tractor was going through the fence and into the ditch Now, he didn't say but I bet he had been having a pretty good time the night before to be able to fall asleep running that tractor. It all turned out in the end. He went on to design the can for Pringles chips

Great story Doug. My youngest son is quite attached to the LA while the other three are still reserving space in their heart for another Cub. We all have fun taking rides around the neighborhood in the wagon.

Re: John Deere Model LA
Wayne, great video. Looks like he is having a good time. I have no such implements at this moment but if we keep this tractor long term, I will look for a plow.
Ed, you need to help Joe put it back together!
Bill E Bob, I am not sure my 5 year old son will let me trade the LA. We have only had it for a couple of months so time will tell. We will still have our sites on another Cub Loboy in the future. Would love to have both a Cub and be able to keep the LA but that may not be feasible.
Josh, I am no JD guy or expert for that matter. From what I have read and understand, the LA has a fairly large bore and stroke with a displacement of 77ci. I think in its day, it was a very capable and reliable machine. For a small tractor it it heavy at 2200LBS and has a lot of pulling capacity.
Re: John Deere Model LA
I'm with Billy on this one, sure would like to do some swappin if I had a low boy since I've always wanted a LA..
Very nice JD you have there.

Rated 4 out of 5Â by BUIYah Great Product but Misleading This is a must have for those ballers who want to avoid shin splints. The compression is tight while the material is built very very strong. It's so thin and lightweight that I was afraid to tear it.... but it's strong. The only problem was that the picture shows 2 sleeves but in reality you only get 1.

Harvey, the Royals' first baseman and designated hitter, was named to the American League team Sunday by manager Joe Torre.
"This is the biggest day of my baseball career," Harvey said, "to be on the field and acknowledged with the greatest players in the game is just unbelievable. I'm almost at a loss for words."
In his second season with the Royals, Harvey has emerged as one of the AL's most consistent hitters and, for a time this season, led the league in batting average.
Informed of his selection before Sunday's game, Harvey was instructed to keep it secret. He called his girlfriend but didn't tell his mother or family members who were at the game against the San Diego Padres.
Harvey's first All-Star selection came as he was leading the Royals' regulars with a .330 average and an on-base percentage of .378. He'd hit nine home runs, 13 doubles and has 33 RBIs.
"The last couple of weeks, my teammates and my agent have been saying I was going to go.
But I'm not like that," he said. "I wanted to wait and see. I knew I was having a good first half but (Carlos) Beltran was probably going to go if he stayed. And always (Mike) Sweeney has a chance to go every year. So
to be honest, I was just honored to be mentioned with those guys as having a chance."
After he was named, Harvey hit his 10th homer in Sunday's 7-1 loss to the Padres.
"I am very, very happy for him," said Royals manager Tony Pena, who will be an AL coach in the Midsummer Classic. "This kid is on the upside. Everybody thinks he's old but he's only 26. This guy has come a long way. One thing about Harvey is he has matured a lot and he's still young. He's going to get better and better and better with the years."
Sweeney had represented the Royals at the last four All-Star Games.
"I'm really excited for Harv," Sweeney said. "I remember the first All-Star Game I went to and the joy that I found and just how proud I was
-- where I'd come from and where I was then. And getting to play with the best ballplayers in the world is quite a thrill."
Sweeney, the team captain, was one of the first to congratulate Harvey. Naturally, the newest All-Star got a big Sweeney hug.
"I gave him a couple of pointers," Sweeney said. "I told him to make sure he brings his mom and he said he was going to, and I know how close his mom is to him. I'm really happy for Ken. It's a great thrill for him."
Batting with an unorthodox grip -- his upper hand overlaps his left hand -- the right-handed Harvey likes to plug the right-center field gap. He's beginning to pull the ball more, though, and his power numbers are expected to increase as he continues to mature as a hitter.
His all-or-nothing swing has made him a favorite with Kauffman Stadium fans.
"If you get cheated and get out, what's the point? People think I have a different swing
-- I have a very opposite-field swing. It's just a fact. I'm a big dude. I've got to get everything I've got into it."
Getting everything into it has rarely been a problem for the 6-2, 240-pound Harvey. He led the nation in hitting with his .478 average for Nebraska in 1999. After being drafted in the fifth round, the Royals sent him to Single-A Spokane where he led the Northwest League with a .397 average.
In four minor league seasons, Harvey had a .328 average. Last year, as a Royals rookie, he hit
.266 in 135 games.
As a first baseman, Harvey is very nimble for a big man and has demonstrated he can dig low throws out of the dirt.
Harvey was one of three position players picked by Torre. In the Players' Vote, he received 189 votes, second to 480 for Boston first baseman David Ortiz. Harvey was not listed on the Fans' Ballot.
"This was Ken's year," Sweeney said. "He's been doing it right and playing well all year."

This January, a 21-year-old Canadian tourist named Elisa Lam disappeared while visiting Los Angeles. Lam was last seen at the Cecil Hotel in downtown Los Angeles, where she had been staying.
Tuesday, her body was found at the bottom of one of the hotel's rooftop water tanks, thus solving two separate mysteries at once: "What happened to Elisa Lam?" and "Why is the water pressure so bad at the Cecil Hotel?"
The hotel's guests were horrified at the news, with good reason — nothing spoils a vacation faster than learning you may have been brushing your teeth with corpse-water.
But anyone familiar with Los Angeles' history couldn't have been too surprised. Downtown L.A. has long been seedy, and somewhat dangerous; the Cecil Hotel, for its part, has a long and sordid criminal history.
The Cecil doesn't advertise its dark past; caveat emptor and all that. But, still, many guests might balk at staying in a hotel that was once a crime scene. It's best if you do your research before embarking on your travels, not after. Here are some ways to determine whether or not you might have booked a room in a murder hotel.
The hotel is also a residential hotel.
Half the time, people who live in hotels are either eccentric millionaires or adorable, adventure-prone children. The rest of the time, they are usually creepy drifters. Sometimes it's hard to tell which is which, so corpse-wary travelers should play it safe and avoid hotels that court the long-term trade. The Hotel Chelsea, where Sid Vicious allegedly killed Nancy Spungen in 1978, was also a long-term residential hotel. The Cecil is one, too; a Los Angeles Times article about the Lam case featured quotes from an 89-year-old man who has lived in the Cecil for 32 years. A hotel like this is probably not the sort of place you want to stay, unless you are a character in a Charles Bukowski novel — in which case, congratulations on magically coming to life!

Matt Cain can now add a National League Player of the Week honor to what has surely been one of the finest seven-day stretches of the Giants right-hander's career.
Cain, who threw the 22nd perfect game in Major League history on Wednesday against the Astros, earned the weekly award for the first time in his career.
The right-hander struck out 14 batters in the 10-0 win against the visiting Astros, becoming the first pitcher in the 130-year history of the Giants franchise to record a perfect game.
The 14 strikeouts were a career high and tied Sandy Koufax's record for most strikeouts recorded in a perfect game (Sept. 9, 1965). It was also the highest strikeout total in a no-hitter since Nolan Ryan struck out 16 on May 1, 1991, against Toronto.
Cain, who also singled and scored on a Gregor Blanco home run in the fifth inning of the game, became the first pitcher ever to score a run in a perfect game.
The two-time All-Star has won a career-best seven consecutive decisions, and owns an 8-2 mark on the season with a 2.18 ERA.
Cain joins Philip Humber as the only other pitcher to toss a perfect game this season, and it marks just the third time in Major League history that two perfect games have been recorded in the same season (1880 -- Monte Ward and Lee Richmond; 2010 -- Roy Halladay and Dallas Braden).
