Very friendly staff and love the deco so much. It's not just a hotel room for sleep, but I would like to stay in the room.
The room, staff, facilities and food were excellent
Some road noise
An outstainding small hotel,
Service, Attention to Details, Free Bikes
Room design Bath tub Staff Close to main station
Breakfast Perhaps would have preferred location in old town - Gion
The staff we're extremely helpful, courteous and accommodating. They gave fantastic local recommendations for sites to see and restaurants to try. They made sure we had the reservations we requested and printed out details directions on how to get there. The staff were amazing! The hotel is a bit far from all the main tourist sites, but we actually liked that! There was close access to transportation (bus and subway) so we could easily get to where we wanted without any trouble. Kyoto station is a 5-10 min walk from the hotel which made it convenient for day trips. And the rooms were so comfortable! They are modern yet preserve the simplicity and beauty of Japanese living. It was great!
Location was great! Staff was friendly and super helpful! Rooms were beautiful and super clean. Beds were heavenly! An oasis that is a perfect blend of old and new Japan!
Nothing at all. Hotel Kanra was excellent!
Too pricey compared to the Gate Hotel in Tokyo.
Very nice hotel with super friendly staff. The rooms are japanese style but still with western comfort. The food in the restaurant is excellent.
the decor is contemporary Japanese style which is very special.the front desk staff were most helpful and sinsere.i wrote emails to the hotel asking it helping me booking restaurants id like to dine in.everything's very well orgnized.
quite expensive for what you get.i paid 97500 yen for three nights. the front entrance has some descend stairs.it's difficult for people to carry their luggages to the reception.
Beautiful Japanese room decor
The room is very clean and the bed is very comfortable. The staff are all very helpful and professional. I wanted to try traditional Kyoto cuisine and they made the booking and arranged taxi for us within very short time. I am very thankful for their efficient and excellent service.
Location was convenient, close to subway station, bus stop and restaurants. 7 Eleven next to the hotel was great!
Lighting in the room did not permit for night reading. Lack of storage space can be an issue if staying for more than 2-3 nights.
A perfect place to be! The staff was extremly friendly, unexpected services (I borrowed a Caligraphy Set at the desk). The room is really big and comfortable. We had a great time and would come back!
Loved the room. Modern Japanese style. Very zen ! Staff were all so lovely, efficient and knowledgable. Beautiful boutique hotel!
The room was beautiful, the staff really helpful, the location ideal for exploring Kyoto
Site of the Hotel site of the room hospitality bikes
Not enough light in the room
Staff were just delightful. Room was exquisitely decorated and furnished combining best of modern boutique with traditional Japanese
Breakfasts were fine if not amazing
their pacious room is very modern and chick. Staff is very helpful. We took advantage of the free power assisted bicycle they have and explored the lovely town of Kyoto. Less than 5 min cab ride from Kyoto station, close to all the major spots in Kyoto
The staff were exceptional. Very helpful and so friendly. Made us feel welcomed.
Steps into lobby a bit challenging with luggage.
The design of the room is quite special compared to other chain hotels I've stayed at. Location is good as it's very close to the main shopping area.
Although the design of the room is modern, some aspects are not very user friendly. E.g. the sink design. As the ledge of the sink is quite low, water splashes everywhere. The price of the hotel was also very expensive for what it is, although this may be because of the Golden Week. We stayed in the Superior Room and had an extra person and they charged a lot. The extra person charge was 50% of the room charge which I thought was a bit much. I wouldn't really recommend this hotel to anyone unless they're really out of choice.
All round this was an amazing hotel, well presented and helpful staff, good food, the room was amazing big and had everything you could need for a 3 night stay. The hotel can lend you bikes to take out up to the golden temple. The room has WiFi and a lovely view. Really am going to miss this hotel.
Nothing to dislike, you have a choice of English and Japanese menus so you cant complain about anything!
Exceptional room and decor.
Room was located next to major street and was therefore very noisy
Beautifully designed and appointed rooms which were very big. Excellent beds which were huge and very comfortable. As was the bathroom, which was very nicely designed. The rooms had a real design edge to them with great lighting and the Japanese style and aesthetic added in. Great rooms.
The suitcase stand was a long way from the wardrobe for unpacking.

Stretch to fit
I have the above svg markup, and have the following doubts.
- In the svg tag width,height are mentioned as 300px, 200px respectively. But when i inspect it in with layout panel(in firebug) it shows 172px width and 119px height. Why is my svg element not taking the dimension as i specified.
- When i delete the viewBox attr in svg element, its taking the dimension of 1596*1096. Again svg element not taking the dimension as i specified and no graphics is visible on the screen.
- If i give preserveAspectRatio="none" on the svg tag there is a change in the dimension of the svg element, but thats also not correct.
By searching, found that view box dimension gives the actual dimension of the svg, which is mapped to the width of the svg element container(say a div in a html page.)
Could not able to put viewbox,viewport,userspace together and understand things.

Ephemera - Letterpress Stationery, Calligraphy + More
I used Tara for invitations for my wedding in September 2008. Tara created a package consisting of the following (for approx. $1400): 125 2-color invitation sets (invitation and reply postcard printed in 2 colors, outer envelopes printed in one color) 125 additional 1-color enclosure 125 rounded corners on all cards 125 inner envelopes 125 lining of inner envelopes I found Tara of Ephemera Press through weddingbee.com - I saw her work via a post by Miss Lovebug, who used Tara for her invitations and other paper goods. I had been looking on the internet for affordable letterpress, which I figured was an oxymoron, because I was not able to find anything that I could afford. I went to Tara's site and checked out the prices - very affordable considering the labor-intensive process that letterpress requires - and decided to order a sample packet. Between the rave review on weddingbee, along with the GORGEOUS samples she sent, I knew I had to book Tara ASAP. Tara was willing to create a package that worked for me, which was greatly appreciated. Throughout the entire process, Tara was energetic and excited, regardless of how busy she was. Through the service she provided, you could really tell that she loves what she does. Planning my wedding was very exciting, but also very stressful, and Tara was always willing to work with me and always made me feel very calm and confident about my choice in invitation companies. Many times I asked her to make decisions for me - because she is the professional, and I think she would know better than I would, but mostly because I trusted her taste 100%. I was insanely happy with what she produced for me. The invitations got rave reviews - even from big, burly guys that I know! I look forward to using her again for some personal stationery. I used Tara's calligrapher as well, and I consider her calligraphy to be art. She was able to match ink colors and fonts beautifully, and it hurt me to send out the invitations once they were all sealed up in their pretty calligraphied packages. But I wanted people to know about the wedding, so I had to send them out. But I did not do it happily! I live in NJ, so all communication with Tara was via email or phone - but she was always available for my questions and any issues that arose. Distance (basically the entire width of the US) was never an issue. I would recommend Tara to anyone that would listen - not only is she an artist and a true professional, but she's a pretty awesome chick too. I'm for sure an Ephemera groupie - Ephemera for life!

sachiko hair and make-up
Sachiko did hair for me (bride), my mom, and 3 of my bridesmaids. Sachiko's work was BEAUTIFUL and gave each girl a different style - each style fit the girl to a "T". Sachiko's prices were very reasonable, and she was willing to travel, which was great, because who wants to travel around on their wedding day? Not this bride! Not only was Sachiko's work beautiful, but she was great to have around and is such a sweetheart. She was able to keep me calm and comfortable (she knew I was very nervous about my hair) the whole day. If anyone wants to see pictures of her BEAUTIFUL work, please let me know!

Occasionally, Mood Swings Aveda Salon and Skin Spa moonlights as a studio. Sometimes camera-toting members of the media stop by to check out this season's trends or new hair products. Other times, models strut or flutter from imaginary wind gusts during Urban Tribe and other fashion photo shoots. Perhaps most importantly, Mood Swings periodic studio space hosts educational seminars for its talented team of stylists, who learn advanced tips in coloring and other techniques from Aveda professional instructors.
This commitment to the art and science of hair justifies Arizona Foothills magazine selecting Mood Swings Aveda Salon and Skin Spa as its best salon of 2011. The praise coincides with that from AZCentral.com, which named Mood Swings Best Trendy Salon for "translating cool, avant-garde styles into wearable, everyday looks." Stylists craft these looks with natural, plant-based products from Aveda, and supplement the service with pampering that can include a complimentary scalp massage, hand facial, and finishing touches to clients' makeup. A comprehensive services menu treats the entire body, ranging from natural skin products that rejuvenate complexions to pedicures that soothe feet with a dual-jet therapeutic whirlpool after unsuccessful attempts to walk barefoot across a hot charcoal grill.
Patients rarely expect a medical office where they can meet with their primary-care physician, get a chiropractic adjustment, and round out their visit with a cutting-edge laser or aesthetic treatment. Dr. Angela Vecellio, Dr. Sal Pilato, and Dr. Kimberly Stein made that myth-like destination a reality at Palm Beach Medical, wisely choosing to do so above sea level after the mistakes of Atlantean small-business owners. Dr. Vecellio leads the friendly and multidisciplinary team from her own advanced training in nutrition, pediatrics, and weight loss, addressing physical ailments with chiropractic care and a variety of innovative therapies. Dr. Stein oversees medical treatments, administering flu shots and performing physicals.
In the cosmetic realm, staffers use Neova's DNA Total Repair formula to combat sun damage during facials. They remove hair from any skin type with Palomar's StarLux 500 platform and strive to banish cellulite with the same Alma Accent XL laser that has been featured on The Doctors and as an understudy in Goldfinger.
Master craftsmen lead the production team at McMow Art Glass, bringing experienced craftsmanship to each new project that the 9,000-square-foot studio takes on and they teach classes to students of all skill levels. A group of 25 employees with art degrees from all over the country assist the veterans, and together they produce an array of fine glass items that range from classic stained windows to carvings, etchings, and mosaics for residences and commercial buildings. Class topics start with the basic skills of fusion and slumping, and ultimately cover more advanced techniques such as how to repair a broken vase after using it as the ball in a harmless game of rugby.
In honor of Women?s History Month, Groupon is celebrating an inspiring group of women: business leaders whose companies and brands enrich their communities. Thanks to the dedication and ingenuity of these leaders, local communities across the country are stronger and more diverse.

Two distinct nine-hole golf courses encircle a go-kart track, batting cages, 36 holes of miniature golf, and a 65-stall driving range at Windy Hill Sports Complex's mini metropolis of family fun. Pin-hunting posses can launch tee shots around dogleg fairways and carry approaches over water hazards at the Lake Course?which features two par 5s?or catch an abridged nine at the par 3 layout, which is lighted to facilitate late-night play without unveiling incendiary prototypes of plutonium golf balls. Foot Golf a combination of Soccer and Golf on the Par 3 Course is also available. Set on the edge of the highest point in Chesterfield County, the driving range helps players to hone their swings with 250 yards of target-peppered terrain, and the mini-golf course affords guests pressure-free practice on their putting stroke. Honda go-karts zip around the complex's quarter-mile go-kart track, where junior- and adult-size conveyances run in separate heats, and two-seater vehicles accommodate adult-child or child-gnome tandems. Across the grounds, sharp line drives resonate from the batting cages, where batsmen swing at orbs slung from mechanical hurlers at anywhere from 25 mph to 85 mph.
There's no fire beneath the bright white mantelpiece at Substance Salon—its ornate carvings and noble busts simply cement a chic ambiance. However, clients can still warm up with sips of gourmet coffee as they wait for their appointed stylists. The salon staff carries the sophistications of the reception area to each of their stations, where they handcraft 'dos based on the tastes of clients. Pureology products help them wash and blow-dry strands into eye-catching arrays, such as the voluminous Bombshell or the Bohemian—breezy waves that wrap around a full-size acoustic guitar.
Master barber Manny oversees the hot-towel shaves and soothing scalp massages on the gentlemen's menu. The salon also has an entire department devoted to brides-to-be—Styling the Bride—whose members travel to clients throughout New York and New Jersey. Their hair and cosmetic expertise, which results in dazzling updos and radiant makeovers, has been featured on The Knot.
Current owner Flora Suissa and the founders of Suissa Salon trained in Paris and Montreal before opening their first salon in 1970 in the US. They took what they learned in the City of Light and the Province of Poutine, and created their own brand of salons. It was only a matter of time before their style shops grew into myriad locations.
Today, Suissa features a roster of talented stylists, aestheticians, and nail artists. They've also got an ace up their sleeve: Eve Diaz, who developed her own line of beauty products?LaPenotiere?which is the primary product line featured here. Armed with talent and products, stylists deliver haircuts, coloring, and keratin treatments that discipline frizzy and static-addicted hair. They also offer weft tape extensions and hijab services, offered in private suites. Suissa's stylists pride themselves on their versatility, which means they're familiar with a large and diverse client base and are adept at working with clients of all ethnicities and a wide range of hair types.

MOMMY'S HOMETOWN HERO (2) by Merrille Whren The sudden death of widowed actress Rachel Charbonneau's mother has her and her 5-year-old daughter returning to the farm where she grew up. Once home Rachel discovers she still has feelings for neighbor Matt Dalton. He returns her affection but has trouble seeing past the famous actress to the woman she still is. Scarred both physically and emotionally by war, Matt doesn't see any future for Rachel and himself. Though it's a lovely premise for a romance, readers never get to know the characters, and there are superfluous scenes and a very unrealistic depiction of the heroine's life.

Recent Public School Articles
Updated July 18, 2014
For far too long the American public school system has failed to address "out-of-school" factors like poverty and their impact on what happens in the classroom. As the nation continues to become increasingly diverse, many schools are adopting comprehensive approaches to education that account for the unique needs of students so that each child is prepared for their future and not just for a year-end test.
Wyoming recently became the first state to reject the Next Generation Science Standards because of concern regarding lessons that teach human-caused climate change. Several other states have also taken measures to reject the standards, which has some education officials concerned about the quality of instruction students in those states will receive.
Inadequate funding and resources for schools, harsh zero-tolerance discipline policies, police presence in public schools, and de facto segregation continue to create school environments in which poor and minority students have little chance of succeeding. The result is a continuation of the school-to-prison pipeline that has been commonplace in the American education system for decades, despite federal, state and local efforts to curb the problem.

The FDA and drug maker Glaxo-Smith-Kline have a new warning for patients with Type 2 Diabetes. The drugs Avandia and Avandamet have been associated with an eye complication called "Macular edema," which means some blood vessels in the eye can leak and lead to blurry vision.
Actually, there have only been a few cases but enough that the FDA wants patients to be aware... because they say vision problems improved when patients stopped taking the drug. The drugs contain Rosiglitazone. Avandamet also contains Metformin.

It doesn't matter who you're rooting for — delicious bites will bring people together without fail. Here, we've put together game-day eats that you're familiar with but are way better than what you'd find at any concession stand. Truffle-Parmesan Popcorn What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Don't have too much time to prepare your game-day fare? Not to worry. This tasty truffle-parmesan popcorn that calls for grated parmesan cheese is a speedy snack you can make on the fly. 1 / 7 Snack Mix What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 This isn't your average trail mix — serve this Polynesian snack made from chewy pineapple, rich pork, and spicy nuts at your next viewing party. Be sure to make extra because chances are one handful won't be enough for your guests. 2 / 7 Patatas Bravas What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 If you're looking for something other than french fries to serve up, consider these (just as tasty) patatas bravas. The bite-size potatoes are dipped in a slightly spicy paprika-and-mayonnaise-based sauce for a taste of Spain at home. 3 / 7 Auntie Anne's Soft Pretzel The mother of all pretzels, Auntie Anne makes a soft-baked treat that's hard to beat.

They still might not be able to escape the booze association, since we have a feeling you'll be enjoying them with a beer in one hand on game day. 6 / 7 Raspberry-Swirl Greek Frozen Yogurt What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 You can get fro yo at most arenas or stadiums across the country, but raspberry-swirl Greek frozen yogurt?

Till now everything is going great and I am highly satisfied with the product. I will definitely recommend this product to my clients in near future. Also I would like to thank you for your support.
CloudBerry S3 Explorer is easily the most advanced tool for managing Amazon's S3 environment. If you are considering implementing a third party tool for your enterprise, you can't go wrong with this product.
The ease of use was amazing, and transferring my important data really couldn't have been easier.
Finally I found the Cloudberry explorer and from the first impression I was amazed and simply it turned out that this is the one and only thing that I need to manage all things with my amazon s3.

8Everything Madonna Does Is to Piss You Off
I don't think anyone would deny that Madonna is an absolute legend. She was an incredible artist spanning several decades who changed the world of pop music forever and offered provocative cultural shifts unlike any we'd seen for a long while. But her time has passed. Madonna is now in her 50s and has lost touch with "the youth". She's trying her hardest to stay relevant and hip, but it's not really working. Even wearing a gold grill and referring to her white son as "#disnigga" is only serving to piss people off more than anything. Turns out, that's apparently why she's doing it.
As she told Ryan Seacrest at the red carpet of the Grammys:
"Yeah, I'm grillin'. It pisses everybody off when I wear my grill, so that's why I wear it. I wear it when I don't have to eat. Actually, I've learned to eat with my grill in."
Well, that's… special. You're really showin' em who's boss there, Madonna! In a way, I understand her love of antagonizing people. I do it to you guys every day! ;-) But at the same time, there's a limit. When you're doing things that are potential cultural appropriation or even outright racist (no, adopting a black kid does not make you exempt from this) to "piss people off", there's a serious problem. Madonna needs to have a few seats and sit and think about what the hell she's doing.
So much for people going out on a high note… As Nelly (yes, THAT Nelly) told TMZ: "Madonna fucked up. She needs to get her shit right."

2Best, Worst, And WTF Of Grammy's Fashion
So The Grammys bore a new meme: Pharrell's hat.
Sorry, but I'm not ready for this to be a new thing.
Let's take a look at what others wore to this craptacular awards show!

0Macklemore, Madonna and Queen Latifah Married Some People at the Grammys
One of the biggest stories to come out of last night's Grammys is that 33 couples of all kinds – gay, straight, interractial – decided to get married during Macklemore & Ryan Lewis's (and Mary Lambert and Madonna's) performance of 'Same Love' during the ceremony, with Queen Latifah walking out of the closet (heaviest handed hint ever?) to officiate. Apparently someone is familiar with Universal Life Church and got ordained online, because I don't think those marriages count?
In any case, it was all very touching and there wasn't a dry eye in the place (mine were watering from boredom because this ceremony was nearly FOUR HOURS LONG) and Katy Perry even got a free bouquet out of the deal – hope you were paying attention, John Mayer… LOL!

22Madonna and Katy Perry Are Doing an "Art Project" Together
Apparently there's some competition going on called Art for Freedom in which the artist who manages to impress Madonna and Katy Perry the most will win $10,000 – not for themselves, but for a non-profit organization of their choice. If that sounds a little wacky to you – the pairing, the concept, any of it – then you're not alone. While most professional artists are aiming to enter competitions to earn money for themselves, to keep a roof over their head while they continue trying to make art for a living, this one is looking for anyone who can pick up a pencil and draw or write a poem or anything else, regardless of experience. Also, the focus is on human rights. And your judges are Madonna and Katy Perry. Let that last part sink in.
Madonna chose Katy to "guest curate" the competition, which is part of the 'Material Girl' singer's Freedom Project organization. Here's the full scoop from Billboard:
Madonna has tapped Katy Perry as guest curator for Art for Freedom, her online public art project that encourages artists to submit videos, music, poetry and photographs to express their take on freedom.
Over the course of this month, Perry will work with Madonna to select an artist "whose creative expression demonstrates a unique view of the fight for human rights," according to a press release.
"I am so fortunate to have the freedom to express myself through music," said Katy Perry. "Now I'm calling all of my incredibly creative KatyCats to use their talent to show Madonna and me how they express their freedom. I believe that 2014 can be a year of great social change. Together we can all stand up for Human Rights. Join the conversation, and let your art be your voice."
LOLLLL. I love the idea of a KatyCat winning this competition. You know I love Katy Perry, but I wouldn't say the fans who stan for her are human rights activists with brilliant artistic ability, to be honest. That's not nice of me to say, I know, and maybe I'll be proven wrong when this whole thing is over. This isn't a Katy Perry competition, it's an art competition about human rights with a prize to be given to a non-profit. Let's widen the scope, here, girl.
I'm interested in the reasons behind Madonna picking Katy to run this. I'm not being funny at all, I think Katy is fantastic, I just would imagine she'd pick an art critic or someone on the board of the Getty museum or something, you know?
In any case, I'd much rather Madonna be spending her time on projects like this than putting on a thong for Terry Richardson. I'll take it.

4Madonna's 13-Year-Old Son is a Booze Hound Already
Is the phrase "booze hound" used by anyone anymore? Probably not, but let's go with it. Madonna's 13-year-old son Rocco (WHEN DID HE GET TO BE A TEENAGER? Christ, time flies!) was photographed holding a bottle of what looks to be Bombay Sapphire and it's causing all kinds of stir. That's him up there in the center. The whole thing is, he didn't get papped or photos weren't leaked by some money-grubbing "friend". Instead, Madonna herself posted the photo to her Instagram page, leading parents and non-parents with a working brain to go, "EH?"
She captioned the photo: "The party has just begun! Bring it! 2014″. That's nice and all, but the party shoulda long been over for your adolescent child who seems to be modeling himself on Justin Bieber. In fact, it never should have begun. He's a CHILD. I know she's Madonna and probably really wants to seem like a "cool mom", but come on.
Of course, since people were freaking out in the comments and in the press, Madonna has since responded to public outrage, saying, "No-one was drinking we were just having fun! Calm down and get a sense of humor! Don't start the year off with judgement!"
HAHA!! Yes, it's so funny when I let my 13-year-old child hold alcohol, knowing he's the child of a famous person with the money and access to substances he has no business around and probably uses all the time when you're not supervising him! Never mind your own struggles with drugs and alcohol in the past, it's just a joke!! LOL!!!!
Give me a break.

After a Year
YES, you have guessed it. Do not blame me, dear.
Indeed, I did not dream, 0 tender eyes,
When first we met, that in a little year
My words would dim you with pain's dumb surprise.
Do not reproach me, for I suffer too
An agony of shame and self-contempt;
And know that I shall miss, far more than you,
The lost illusions of this dream we've dreamt.

AgileLIVE Webinar Series:
Role of the Project Manager in Modern Agile Projects
Many groups adopting an agile development approach fail in ways that can be traced back to the missing project manager role. In other words, they didn't understand what good project managers do in the first place. In this webinar, Dr. Cockburn starts with 10 critical project success factors, relates those to PMI project phases and to the overall value and purpose of a project manager.
About the Presenter
Dr. Alistair Cockburn co-founded the agile development movement, co-authoring the Manifesto for Agile Software Development and the project leadership Declaration of Interdependence. He wrote the Jolt-Productivity Award winning book on the subject, Agile Software Development. Working in research, academia, and the industry since 1974, and doing computer hardware design, software design, process design and project management, Dr. Cockburn helps companies align their strategies and actions with their purpose, injecting lightweight agile methods into projects needing improvement.

Also absent from Stadium celebration: Roger ClemensBy · Comments
One of the notable stories from yesterday was the absence of Joe Torre and Don Mattingly from the pre-game ceremonies on Sunday. Since they're both with the Dodgers, it's understandable why they did not appear in person. Donnie got mentioned along with the first basemen, though not announced by Kay or Sterling, and Torre's name wasn't uttered. Yet there was another Yankee from the dynasty years who went unnoticed last night: Roger Clemens. Why would the Yankees snub a player who is only one year removed from his last stint in Pinstripes?
They were afraid the fans would boo him.
"They didn't want boos to be the last memory of Roger at the Stadium," a source familiar with preparations for the last game told the Daily News.
While I'm not one for blindly trusting an anonymous Daily News source, this seems likely. Most people I know aren't too fond of Clemens right now, be it because of his breakdown late last year, or because of his grandstanding amid steroid accusations and perjury charges. So there had to be legitimate concern over the reception he'd receive from fans.
When asked, Brian Cashman wiped his hands of the situation:
"Roger was a great Yankee and did a tremendous job here and we're proud of the work he did here," general manager Brian Cashman said Monday. "I can't speak to why he wasn't involved in the video tribute. I wasn't part of any meetings.
"There's a lot of controversy surrounding him right now, but that doesn't change the kind of person he was when he was here. He's special in my book, whether they showed a video clip of him or not."
Team spokesman Howard Rubenstein also attempted to defuse the situation, saying that the snub of Torre and Clemens was not intentional:
"A lot of great Yankees were not mentioned," Yankee spokesman Howard Rubenstein said of Clemens and Torre. "There was no slight intended and perhaps both of them should have been mentioned during the celebration."
Sorry, but I'm not buying that one bit. To lump Clemens and Torre in with Yankees not mentioned just isn't fair. Say what you will about Clemens, and I know there will be differing opinions, but you can't just say that some people weren't mentioned as an explanation for Joe Torre. And yes, perhaps both should have gotten a mention for their contributions to multiple World Championships.
Honestly, do you think that the fans would have booed had Clemens been present, or even recognized? I'm not sure that would have been the case. Fans might hold contempt towards the man, but Sunday night was not one rife for booing. I assume fans would have clapped out of respect for the man and his achievements. Booing would have just been out of place.
Taking a look at 2008 draftee Brett Marshall
The 2008 draft was a rough one for our Yankees, yet we didn't come away empty-handed. Using the power of the almighty dollar, they lured RHP Brett Marshall, their 6th round pick, away from college. While he doesn't have the ceiling of first-round non-signee Gerrit Cole, Marshall has considerable upside. Baseball Intellect's Alex Eisenberg gives us a look at Marshall's mechanics. As with all amateur mechanics evaluations, don't take his word as gospel. I do like Eisenberg's analysis, though, mainly because he doesn't claim to have the answer to any of Marshall's mechanical issues. He just gives us the skinny, along with some animated images. So give it a click. · (22) ·
Last Night on EarthBy · Comments
Eight innings down; one to go. (All photos by Benjamin Kabak. All links in the post go to flickr.)
It wasn't just another night in the ballpark with my dad. It was the end of an era, and the Stadium went out in style.
I didn't expect to find myself at the final game at Yankee Stadium. My family didn't get tickets earlier this year, and as the season wore on and it seemed more and more likely that Sunday's game would be the last of the year, we were resigned to saying our good bye's sooner. But when this week rolled around, I lobbied my family to get tickets. After all the years, we've spent going to games — my dad went to his first game in 1958 and my sister and I were both three when we attended our first Yankee games — how could we miss this last one?
We couldn't get four seats together, and instead, my dad and I ended up sitting in Tier Reserve 4, Row M, Seats 3 and 4 while my mom and sister sat in the Tier Boxes beyond first base. The view from the tier, with the field stretching out below, was as good as it always is.
My dad and I arrived at Yankee Stadium shortly after 4 p.m. with the goal of watching Yankee batting practice. We had enough time to walk up 161th St. where on one side we saw a new stadium trying hard to be Yankee Stadium and an old station offering up its thanks. A Baseball Cathedral, one building often referred to on Sunday as the "best venue in sports," stood facing its reluctant future.
Back inside the stadium, the crowd for Monument Park snaked up the left field ramp all the way to the Tier level and back a good ten or fifteen sections. The fans were there to pay their last respects.
As the pre-game warmups went on, we saw the old Yankee guard make its appearance. David Wells took pictures of the crowd, and reporters clustered around Paul O'Neill. Reggie talked to Rudy, and Bob Sheppard, prerecorded just a few days ago, welcomed the crowd one final time. The Yanks wouldn't have it any other way.
With the Countdown Clock set at one, the Yanks unveiled their very first league champion pennant before trotting out the regular Old Timers. The dugout, needless to say, was quite crowded, but it quickly emptied out. We saw everyone from Cora Rizzuto to Scott Bro. Jorge, in uniform, wistfully reminded us of the season's lost opportunities.
Yogi provided the crowd with an iconic image, and Bobby Murcer earned the love of the crowd. The start of the night was a more recent Yankee. When Number 51 trotted out to his familiar spot, the crowd roared, "Ber-nie! Ber-nie! Ber-nie!" He was back.
Prior to the start of the game, I witnessed what was the best commentary on the night. A fan with a giant wooden saw attempted to abscond with a large chunk of the stadium. Luckily, security didn't stop him, and the saw proved rather ineffectual. It made for some great laughs. Behind us, some fans had put up a sign honoring the stadium.
The game progressed apace with Andy Pettitte throwing a ball for the last first pitch. We saw the B win the last Great Subway Race while the D took home the season crown. The countdown clock never hit zero and instead landed on forever because, as Michael Kay explained, there will forever be a Yankee Stadium.
After the Yankees announced a total stadium attendance of 151,959,005, the grounds crew forced the Y.M.C.A. on us yet again. Following one of the youngest Yankees, though, came the oldest: Bob Sheppard read a poem about the Stadium to the crowd. He was as much a star of the night as anyone else, and considering that Bob Sheppard is synonymous with Yankee Stadium, it was a fitting tribute to both the man and the building.
As the stadium crew ensured the team could sell numerous game-used bases, the hour grew late. Strands of Metallica filled the air, and in jogged Mariano Rivera one more time to throw three more outs. By 11:43, it was all over, and the Yanks were hugging on the field.
The ceremony didn't end there. With the team around him, Derek Jeter, the last Yankee to bat at Yankee Stadium, addressed the crowd, and the team set off on its valedictory lap. As the witching hour came and went, the Yanks even ensured a familiar name would make an appearance. A recording of Eddie Layton playing "Good Night, Sweetheart" filled the air. No one could tickle those ivories quite like Eddie.
The Babe said good night as we waved our tearful farewells to the stadium. And while we joked about taking everything under the sun on the way down stairs, it was tough to walk through that turnstile. I could feel the stadium pulling me back in. "Don't go," it was saying. "I'm 85, and you're all forgetting about me." Now, all I have are the photos, the countless memories and a refrigerator magnet.
Pondering the field, one final time.

Hal wants Cash backBy · Comments
I'm still working on putting together a post about the final game. I took a lot of pictures, and the whole evening was very emotional. Plus, there's this Civil Procedure reading too. I'll have the photo post ready to go in the morning for you. In the meantime…
In the clearest indication of where the Yanks' organization may be headed this off-season, Hal Steinbrenner unequivocally said that the team wants Brian Cashman back as the General Manager. Kat O'Brien has the story:
The Yankees want Brian Cashman back as their general manager next year, and have told him so, Yankees co-chairman Hal Steinbrenner told Newsday in a phone interview Monday.
"He knows that we're with him, that we want him back," Steinbrenner said.
Cashman confirmed that to Newsday in a phone interview, saying: "Yes, we've talked. They've mentioned that during the season."
Steinbrenner said conversations took place among himself, brother and co-chairman Hank Steinbrenner, father and principal owner George Steinbrenner and Cashman when the Yankees played in Tampa earlier this month. Hal Steinbrenner said: "We did talk in Tampa. We didn't talk about dollars, but we talked about time frame, length.
Interestingly, O'Brien's sources hedge their bets when it comes to Cashman's ultimate decision. While the Yanks want him back, it's no sure thing that he wants to come back. "I think obviously, it's quickly approaching that type of decision," Cashman said to O'Brien. "There's no doubt about it. I'll sit down with my family — with the Yankee family and my family. We'll do what's best for everyone involved. I love what I do. We'll just have to see what happens."
In the end, I think Cashman will come back. I think the Yanks will offer him a very lucrative deal, and I don't think Cashman can just give up 22 years of organizational ties. I think this story lays out what we've all thought for a long time: Hal is more in charge than the backpage editors of The Daily News and The New York Post would have you believe, and if that is indeed the case, I think we'll see Brian Cashman return.
We're Cashman supporters here. But we know he has his detractors. Those opponents, though, appear to come largely from outside the organization, and the people making the decisions for the Yankees recognize what they have in Brian Cashman. To give up on him now, in the middle of his restocking plan, would be folly.
Not dead yet
While they had the tying and winning runs in scoring position, the Red Sox couldn't top the Indians tonight, and the Yankees live to fight another day. As David Pinto relates, the game was not without controversy as an ump got in the way of the ball, thus costing the Red Sox a key run. The Yanks are now six out in the Wild Card with six left to play. Stranger things haven't really happened. · (24) ·
Open Thread: One week of baseball leftBy · Comments
It's a quiet night in Yankeeland as the players and fans have spent the day reflecting on last night's Yankee Stadium finale. But just because the Yanks are off doesn't mean baseball stops.
Across town, as the Mets look to close out Shea Stadium, the team has entered their annual September swoon. Already out of first place, they're playing the Cubs with their October hopes on the line. In Atlanta, the Phillies are looking to hold on to their slim NL East lead. In Cleveland, the Red Sox are searching for that one win to clinch a playoff berth while we're hoping the improbable can happen.
Meanwhile, we're always have CC. Jon Heyman chimes in with yet another Yankee-filled column, and this one's a doozy. He says it'll take "crazy" money for CC to come to the AL and the Bronx. Funny thing about the Yanks is that they just happen to have crazy money lying around in piles. Heyman also believes that Bobby Abreu, Jason Giambi and Andy Pettitte will be gone but that Mike Mussina will retire.
He also mentions two other items of note: The Yanks have all but given up on Melky Cabrera and will be looking for a center fielder this off-season. Second, Robinson Cano remains the Yanks' biggest trade chip, and it is Heyman's view and his view only that the Yanks could explore trade options. Considering the younger/better mantra the Yanks are attempting to adopt, I don't see the team moving Cano.
So as the evening wears on, and baseball heads to a finish, use this thread for an open thread. Speculate on the Yanks. Check in on the pennant races. Nothing is off-topic.
It wasn't all roses
I loved last night's closing ceremonies, but there were a few notable absences. Donnie Baseball wasn't there; Joe Torre garnered nary a mention; and while the team honored the players, the Stadium itself served more as a backdrop than as the main event at times. It wasn't until after the game that the Stadium took centerstage. Joel Sherman, a writer to whom we rarely link, runs down some of the more disappointing aspects to last night's ceremonies. While Sherman, not quite a Yankee fan, is engaging in some Monday Morning Quarterbacking, he raises a few valid points, and for a piece offering up a dissenting view on last night, it's not half bad. · (28) ·
Yanks set final unbreakable record
With the announced attendance of 54,610 last night, the Yanks drew 4,298,543 fans last night. This lofty total is a new record for the Yanks, and as Tyler Kepner notes, it is one the team cannot break in the new stadium. Capacity for the new Yankee Stadium will be 52,325 according to the Yankees, and a sold-out slate of 81 games would find 4,238,325 fans at the stadium. While the Yanks will probably reach that goal next year, they won't reach the 2008 record unless they expand the seating at the new stadium. It certainly makes me wonder why the team has built a smaller stadium. · (37) ·
Still alive
We've been criticized for our irrational optimism in the past, so we might get some flak for this. If the Yankees can win their final six games, including three against the Red Sox, and the Sox drop their next seven, well, then we'd be in line for a one-game playoff. Impossible? No. Improbable? Yes. But hey, the season ain't over until we lose or Boston wins one more game. · (44) ·
Matsui set for Monday surgery
Hideki Matsui hadn't played in a game for eight days. But with the Yankee Stadium finale on tap, Godzilla didn't want to miss it. He started, went 1 for 3 and was removed for Ivan Rodriguez in the 7th. After the game, the Yankees announced that Matsui would undergo surgery on his left knee today. He'll be ready for Spring Training, but how he fits in the 2009 Yankee lineup is, right now, open for debate. · (31) ·
