Bringing more jobs to Florida
FLORIDA -- Making changes to try and bring in more jobs to the state.
We're at the halfway mark of the state legislative session and Governor Rick Scott continues to call for a tax break for manufacturers.
Scott wants lawmakers to pass a 115 million dollar manufacturing sales tax break in an attempt grow the industry in Florida.
Scott says it's one of his top budget priorities along with teacher pay raises.
"My two priorities are the 2500 dollar pay raise for classroom teachers and I'm also focused on getting rid of the sales tax on manufacturing equipment because I know both of those things are going to one improve education and two make sure we get more jobs."
The tax break could be an easy sale in the House, but the senate budget chief is pushing a reduction on driver's license and tag fees as an alternative to the tax cut.

I think this is even sweeter since I've met little Parker, and I've seen him give you that wide open smile. It's amazing to see.
You are so lucky.
Sweetest. Note. Ever. I've got 55 more days until my little girl is expected to make her debut and I already wish I could slow it all down. He's a lucky one to have you for a mama!ReplyDelete
Tears are streaming down my face. I am at work, but haven't slept and Behr is all the way on the otherside of the building in day care. Every thread in my body wants to run and pick him up and squeeze him and take a nap all day long.ReplyDelete
Beautifully written my dear!
and now I'm crying. This is so beautiful Bridget.ReplyDelete
now i kinda have a bad case of baby fever.ReplyDelete
thanks for that :)
this kills me. seriously, that was the best post. i openly admit that i don't always think babies are the cutest (and in fact, maybe some of them scare me) but parker is just so damn adorable. what a perfect little (big) family you've got :)ReplyDelete
now you made my uterus feel lonely and void.ReplyDelete
thanks. accident number one coming right up.
Beautiful song, beautiful letter.ReplyDelete
I love this. I'm expecting to meet my baby in March. It's true - you have known this baby for a year. I think it's amazing how love just grows right inside you the whole pregnancy. I can't wait to meet my little bugaboo. And I love how you write letters to P. Do you ever plan to print and bind them?ReplyDelete
wow. that was so sweet. and all so true!! people told me how IN LOVE i would be with my baby but i had NO idea. there really is no other way to describe it other than labeling it as an intense, vulnerable love. awesome letter. i need to go write one to mason. :)ReplyDelete
actually no aurprise, but Berlin is crying too. this is simply wonderful!ReplyDelete
I wonder if every mama out there feels this same way. Sometimes the love is so big is hurts. Thanks for sharing this letter with us bridget. So happy you have Parker and so glad he has you for his Mama.ReplyDelete
Cutest mama and baby ever. And I do hope you know, all the posts of you and your growing pregnant belly and the notes to sweet parker, it made my heart so happy. It was the cutest. And I am taking that idea and stealing it. borrowing it? anytime I see people post things on facebook of their pregnant belly I always think they are doing it SO wrong. If only they all read your blog. :)ReplyDelete
You just make me want to have a kid ten times more than I already do. So sweet!ReplyDelete
Gorgeous post! I love this and I love how Parker will have something to look back on one day (He'll probably get all embarrassed and be like Geez, Ma!)ReplyDelete
I'm not a mom, but a big sister - my baby brother Ben was born when I was fifteen and having a new baby in the house (my other brother was thirteen at the time) is such a joy. It is amazing how a family can feel full and complete, but a new baby comes in and you can't imagine your life without them in it.
I wrote a similar post to my brother on his birthday ... from a big sister's perspective:)
Your words are precious & such a treasure for your sweet boy to look back on one day.ReplyDelete
I love this. I am wondering if my husband and I will be blessed to have a baby. I can hear through your words how much of a gift motherhood truly is. How beautiful it must be. Continue to embrace the moments.ReplyDelete
such sweetness. every single word. i could weep, too.ReplyDelete
we're so cut from the same mama-cloth, lady.
This is beautiful! I Criedddddddddd*ReplyDelete
Such a beautiful post! Make sure to print this so one day your baby can read it! My baby started kindergarten this year and I can honestly say they grow up too fast.ReplyDelete
Thanks. Thanks a lot for making a pregnant woman cry before it even hit 8am. Jerk.ReplyDelete
And, you know what? What you felt when you wrote this only intensifies, and your heart gets bigger and fuller with each kid. It's amazing mothers don't walk around with a third middle boob-looking thing on their chest from a heart swolen with joy and love. God knew what He was doing when He allowed a woman to experience this, because there will be PLENTY of days when Parker will grab a hold of the sugar on the counter (or whatever) and spill it all over the floor. Right after you mopped the floors. That love you have for him will keep you from wanting to spank the daylight out of him :-) Motherhood is crazy!
Gaaahhh... that music... and those pictures... and that letter to Parker. Tears.ReplyDelete
Crying now, just like everyone else. I'm glad I'm in good company.ReplyDelete
You and Parker are so blessed to have each other and these letters are one of the sweetest things I've ever come across.
And I love Megan's comment. My uterus is freaking out a little too. I need to go see my nephews to tide it over for now.
gosh, his face is the sweetest thing! and i love everyone's comments... stop doing this to our uteruses! okay but don't, i like it :)ReplyDelete
these pictures....his face...so adorable.ReplyDelete
also, when i read that he had been in existence for a year, i misunderstood & thought you were saying he turned 1. i was freaking out.....thinking, WHERE DID THE TIME GO!? I SWEAR IT WAS JUST YESTERDAY SHE WAS ANNOUNCING HIS ARRIVAL! not to mention he looks nothing like a 1 year old. duh. i should've known.
Beautiful post!ReplyDelete
ok, this post has made me way too clucky! time to start reciting my personal mantra: wait a few years, wait a few years... but really, you sound like the best mom ever. xReplyDelete
whenever it is i have kiddos, i don't know if i will stop the tears. this was the sweetest. parker is lucky to have such a sweet mom.ReplyDelete
I need to hug you and hug Parker. Right now.ReplyDelete
This is precious. I'm sure he'll appreciate it one day!ReplyDelete
Being a momma is the best, isn't!?! Parker is soooooo.....too many words to insert! Much love to you both.ReplyDelete
this is sooo precious. it seriously makes me want one of my very own RIGHT now. parker is beautiful and your one blessed mama!ReplyDelete
What a beautiful post bridget. I am breathless at times with the love I have for quinn. I didn't know what I was in for! What a gift, right? By the way, quinn is really saying "park" now when we look at the birth announcement on the fridge. Love it!ReplyDelete
Too sweet! A momma's love it a crazy wonderful thing. These babies are amazing. I just wrote to Hannah for her 5 months b-day today too. I can't imagine life without her. :)ReplyDelete
Turns out our hubs ARE getting together in SF. Lucky them in their warm weather. Whatevs. Hope you have fun plans for yourself, and little man, while he's away!
This is gorgeous, Bridget. Definitely brought tears to my eyes. Babies are such precious gifts. :)ReplyDelete
I love this. This is why I love being home with my kids all day, every day. All those moments of breathing in their beauty and sweetness. Catching all those smiles and tears and questions and moments. Almost always I lie with Jonah until he falls asleep, because lately he's really worried about monsters, and then I just keep lying there, touching his cheeks and hair and the bridge of his nose, telling him how much I love him and apologizing for the moments that day when I wasn't good enough, wasn't patient enough, didn't stop what I was doing to look at the bug he found or the tower he built. It's so wonderful and painful all at the same time.ReplyDelete
And then I think about how it happened all over again with Henry. All of it new again. Because somehow you forget what a first smile or first laugh is like. And you celebrate it just as much as the first time. And then I think, I could just have 11 babies. Just for it all to be new again.
brig, that was amazing and you are making we want babies, like now! my husband is asleep in the other room but I suppose I could wake him and get this thing started.ReplyDelete
He has a pretty amazing mama :)ReplyDelete
So sweet. You're such a good mama (: He's so adorableReplyDelete
it's crazy how much we cry and how much thinking about the pregnancy, the birth, yesterday can make me cry. lovely letter.ReplyDelete
I think you just convinced me to have another baby, for realReplyDelete

It's been an interesting day for Rutgers football. As if it wasn't interesting and shocking enough when Greg Schiano left the Rutgers Scarlet Knights to take the Tampa Bay Buccaneers job, things got more fun Monday when reports emerged that FIU's Mario Cristobal would take the Rutgers job. That report was shot down a few hours later, and Cristobal will stay in Florida.
Plan B was apparently the Scarlet Knights' offensive line coach Kyle Flood. CBS Sports' Brett McMurphy broke the news on Monday evening. The 41-year-old Flood was named interim head coach when Schiano left for Tampa Bay and has been a Rutgers assistant since 2005.
NJ.com also confirmed the news independently, though the school has not yet confirmed the hiring themselves. Cristobal reportedly turned down the job on Monday after several hours of negotiations, leading the Scarlet Knights to go with an in-house hire. This will be Flood's first career head coaching job after 19 years as an assistant coach in college football.

· Considering E-P3, but which bundle to get (lenses)?
Hi guys,
I'm looking to replace my Fuji X100 which has been great to me these past 6 months, but I'm starting to get a bit frustrated with the slow autofocus and the lack of focal length options (it's fixed 35mm equiv., FYI). I do have a DSLR which I've been shooting for a few years and I continue to use that, but I need something smaller for the pocket (cargo pants/jacket) and quiet'er than the mirror slap offered by my Nikon
The E-P3 with either VF-2 or VF-3 seems like a good option. I prefer a black E-P3, but it seems VF-3 is only available in silver, so I wonder how that will look...?
Anyway, what bundle should I get? Locally, prices are as follows:
E-P3 with 14-42mm and 40-150mm kit lenses: 1200 ($1600)
E-P3 with 17mm f2.8 pancake: 740 ($990)
E-P3 with 14-42mm kit lens: 799 ($1070)
E-P3 body only: 716 ($960)
I'm a bit all over the place in terms of what I'm shooting, to be honest. I'm used to the 23mm f2 (35mm equiv.) on the X100, and when I'm just out and about with my Nikon I'm using the 35mm f1.8 (52mm equiv.), so I'm guessing the 17mm pancake on E-P3 will be nice. On the other hand, it would probably be nice to have 14-42mm available, but I don't know if the lens is generally too slow? I like blurry backgrounds (bokeh) and a fast lens for indoor shooting, so I'm guessing since m4/3 sensors are smaller than APS-C, that I need something really fast on E-P3 to give me as much creamy bokeh as possible.
It's a jungle regarding the adaptors, I think. Not sure when autofocus will work and not etc. I only have one existing lens with an aperture ring on, the Nikon 50mm f1.8, but I'm guessing it'll only work with manual focus on E-P3, since this lens does not have a built-in motor?
Bottom line: Are the kit lenses for E-P3 so much rubbish that I'd want to replace them sooner rather than later anyway, so I might as well just buy the bundle with 17mm pancake so I have something somewhat-fast and small, and then buy an expensive lens later on?
EDIT: Added "body only"-price to the list above.

It won't come in a bundle, but you'll likely want to look at the Panasonic 20mm f/1.7 (it's a micro 4/3rds lens so completely compatible with the EP-3). It's a small, light pancake lens that's quite sharp and gives you some depth of field control. That combined with the mid-range zoom (14-42) would make a good walk around kit.
Anything you adapt (aside from some original 4/3 mount lenses that you can get a specific adapter for) will be manual focus and aperture only.

· Considering E-P3, but which bundle to get (lenses)?
Thanks for your useful reply. I've just added the "body only" price to my list above, which is 716 ($960), so for 24 ($30) more, I can get the 17mm pancake lens, so I assume I might as well go with that and try and sell the pancake later if necessary?
You say the Pana 20mm f1.7 is completely compatible, no need for adapters or anything? It's 100% compatible because of the m4/3 mount? It costs 350 ($470) so that's not too bad.
How's the 40-150mm kit lens, if I buy it separately? I'm thinking it would be nice with plenty of zoom sometimes as well.

· Considering E-P3, but which bundle to get (lenses)?
For $30 I'd personally get the 17mm and try to sell it.
Yes, Panasonic m43 lenses are completely compatible with Olympus m43 bodies. No adapters required and you get full AF and aperture control. Exactly the same as using an Olympus lens.
I've never personally used the 40-150, but I've read it's quite good and very compact for the range it offers.
Here is a good image thread for m43 gear so you can see what people are using and the results with different gear, it could help you narrow down what it is you want.

formula4speed, thanks again! Sounds promising with all the m4/3 lenses compatible
Tom Harpstead, I've just done a quick research on that GX1 and it does seem like a fairly interesting camera. For some weird reason, it's actually cheaper as well. GX1K with 14-42mm kit lens I can get for $845 and the E-P3 with a 14-42mm lens is over $1070. However, a GX1X with 14-42mm kit lens is $1043. I can't see any difference between the GX1K and GX1X other than the lens on "X" seems to be shorter, is that the only difference?

Yes the new panasonic "X" lenses are almost pancake sized. Where as the older similar versions are longer.

· Considering E-P3, but which bundle to get (lenses)?
Thanks for the clarification, Tom.
I've had more time to further research and I think E-P3 is just a tiny bit more interesting to me than GX1.
I think I might go with:
* E-P3 with 14-150mm (yes, 14-150mm!) for $1400
* Pana 20mm f1.7 for $470
* VF-2 or VF-3 viewfinder for $230'ish <- I can't imagine shooting without a viewfinder, but I'll probably give it a try first.
I think with the above package, I will have a 20mm pancake for when I need it to be really small and useful in low light, and a 14-150mm for when I just need a "one size fits all" when playing tourist (and the pancake can still go in my other pocket).
For everything else, I still have a bag full of heavy DSLR gear.
Good/bad choice?

I'd stay away from zooms and stick to primes.
IMO the ultimate micro 4/3 kit is:
Oly 12/2, Leica 25/1.4, Oly 45/1.8
If you're on a budget:
Pan 14/2.5, Pan 20/1.7, Oly 45/1.8
Those 3 lenses can pretty much cover any type of shooting, IMO.

I have not used the 12/2, but have seen images and read reviews and it is an awesome lens. I own the 25/1.4 and the 45/1.8, and those are among the very best lenses I've ever used on ANY camera. The 20/1.7 is also an awesome lens and is much smaller than the 25, but it lacks a little of the magic the 25 exudes.

Get the VF-2 its a lot higher resolution that VF-3, which is meant to be a budget viewfinder.
In terms of lenses, I hear that the kit zoom is pretty good, but aperture wise it's too slow for me. I have the Panasonic 14mm f2.5 and the Olympus 45mm f1.8 and both are brilliant lenses with fast AF. Not really interested in the 20mm as it's a pretty boring focal length for me. Instead I use the cheap but super sharp Olympus OM 28mm f3.5 manual focus which is pretty small as well.

· Considering E-P3, but which bundle to get (lenses)?
Thanks for your opinion, but I don't want a prime-only solution. I can do that with DSLR
I need m4/3 to be more of a light weight solution where I don't have to bring a bag of lenses or stuck my pockets with primes - when I'm in that mood, I take DSLR
I've been debating whether to get VF-2 or VF-3. According to reviews I've read, even though VF-2 has higher resolution, in terms of daily use, you won't really feel like you're missing anything with the VF-3. The downside with VF-2 is that it's bigger and bulky and even worse, no lock mechanism and according to Steve Huff, his VF-2 kept coming off, so I think I'll go with the cheaper VF-3 at this point, hoping maybe in a few years they'll make a killer m4/3 with built-in EVF or something like that

The Person Who Changed My Life
"That person for sure was my instrumental music teacher, Mario DeCarolis. Mr. D, as we called him was teacher, mentor, father figure, and friend to many of us." Noreen Braman, 57, Jamesburg, New Jersey
"Al Nelson who taught a course by mail called "How To Write the Non-Fiction Book" is the person who changed my life. I enrolled in the course in 1971 but dropped out when my husband got cancer and died. Six months later I received a note from Mr. Nelson saying he had been impressed with my work, and decided to check on what had happened to me. He re-enrolled me and it was a lifesaver. I finished the book I was working on, "Traveler's Reading Guide," and published it in a 3-volume set of paperbacks. Then it was picked up by Facts on File and I edited two editions for them. Here I am at 92 and just had an article about me on the front page of the Wall Street Journal." Maggy Simony, 92, Cape Canaveral, Florida
"When I attended P.S. 137 in Brooklyn, I was shy and insecure, unwilling to speak or assert myself in class. The first person to single me out for the encouragement I needed was Mrs. Kulyer, my fourth-grade teacher.

The Vanderburgh County coroner tells 14 News the body found on Culverson Ave. was inside the vacant home for 6-7 months. No foul play suspected. No ID yet.
That body was found by a group of neighbors looking around inside the house on Culverson Avenue.
Neighbors tell 14 News that they discovered the body a week ago at a home on Culverson Avenue, but waited until Friday night to call police. They say they went in the home last Saturday because it's been vacant for several years and they were interested in purchasing it. According to the neighbors, the home was unlocked so they went inside and the home seemed empty.
They say as they walked in, the saw a wallet and some keys and then came to the body lying on the floor. Three days later that same neighbor took a friend to the home. They say one man stood at the door, the other went in to investigate, and what he saw nearly terrified him.
Right now, because of the condition of the body, investigators cannot determine if foul play was involved.

CATEGORIES MoviesIf you're not heading to see "Oz the Great and Powerful" this weekend, take a chance on these picks to stream your own featured presentation at home. Here's one G, one PG, and one PG-13 pick to keep your kids, tweens, or teens happy on Family Movie Night -- or if you're unlucky enough to live in the path of a snow storm, the next snow day.
G Pick - Family Classic: "Dumbo" (1941, 64 minutes) Netflix Amazon On Demand iTunes
Kids Will Love: Even kids with short attention spans can handle this 64-minute Disney classic about a big-eared circus elephant that finds an unlikely best friend in a little mouse that teaches him to reach his true potential. But be warned, some kids (and parents) find the whole pink elephant hallucination segment a bit freaky.
Parents Will Love: Even 70-plus years later, there's no more touching Disney ballad than "Baby Mine." Dumbo and his mother's relationship is still so heartwarming to witness. Because Dumbo is ridiculed for his looks, the movie even provides an opportunity to discuss the importance of empathy and the impact of bullying with the youngest of kids.
Did You Know? "Dumbo," Disney's fourth animated feature, won an Academy Award for Best Original Score but not for song. "Baby Mine" -- which has been recorded by everyone from Bette Midler to Allison Krauss -- lost to the Jerome Kern standard "The Last Time I Saw Paris," which I bet few parents with young kids know.
PG Pick - Globe-Trotting Adventure: "The Adventures of Tintin" (2011, 107 minutes) Netflix Amazon On Demand iTunes
Kids Will Love: Even tweens completely unfamiliar with the original Tintin comics will love this action-adventure starring brave young Tintin and his beloved dog Snowy. Pirate ships, hidden treasure, and an intrepid, intelligent hero make this a perfect pick for mature 9-year-olds and up, who can keep up with the breakneck speed of story.
Parents Will Love: This is Steven Spielberg's first animated film, and it's filled with humorous bits that adults will appreciate, like British comedic bros Simon Pegg and Nick Frost playing the nearly identical coppers Thomson and Thompson, or the hilarious sequence at the outdoor reception featuring the opera diva (voiced by Renee Fleming) whose voice can shatter glass.
Did You Know? Andy Serkis, who voiced the character of Captain Haddock, is widely considered the king of motion-capture roles. He has famously played Gollum for Peter Jackson's "Lord of the Rings" and "Hobbit" films, Kong in "King Kong," and Caesar in "Rise of the Planet of the Apes."
PG-13 Pick - Jane Austen Reinvented: "Clueless" (1995, 95 minutes) Netflix Amazon On Demand iTunes
Kids Will Love: So much. Even if they laugh at the '90s fashion and the teen slang, teens are bound to fall as hard for this story as the teens of 18 years ago. Like most teen flicks, there are some references to sex and underage substance use, but Amy Heckerling's high-school comedy is still worth watching (and laughing along) with teens (unlike her '80s high-school classic, "Fast Times at Ridgemont High," which you definitely do not want to see with them).
Parents Will Love: Those who were in high school or college when "Clueless" came out will love sharing the '90s nostalgia (which is so in right now) with their teens. I know I can't be the only parent who can probably quote the movie line by line. If you're really lucky, kids will want to check out Jane Austen's "Emma" after this fabulously clever adaptation. Did You Know? Other stars who tried out for the cast include Reese Witherspoon for Cher (Alicia Silverstone), Zooey Deschanel for Tai (Brittany Murphy), Terrence Howard for Murray (Donald Faison), Seth Green for Travis (Breckin Meyer), and Lauryn Hill for Dionne (Stacey Dash).

A Few (Non-Spoilery) MONSTERS, INC. Sequel Details...
Merrick here...
THIS piece at DisneyBlog offers a thumbnail synopsis for MONSTERS UNIVERSITY, the long-awaited sequel to 2001's MONSTERS. INC.
Per DisneyBlog...
Billy Crystal and John Goodman reprise their roles as Mike Wazowski and James P. Sullivan. In the original they were an inseparable pair, but that wasn't always the case. When these two mismatched monsters met at school they couldn't stand each other. "Monsters University" unlocks the door to how Mike and Sulley overcame their differences and became the best of friends.
I could've sworn we'd heard a plot synopsis quite similar to this a while back, but maybe I'm delirious, confused, or both (as this is pretty much my normal state, it's difficult to tell). The site also has a look at a title treatment for the film - be sure to check it out.
MONSTERS, INC. was never one of my favorite Pixar films (along with CARS). This said, I saw MI at a particularly emotional and wrenching juncture in my life - so it's entirely possible I'm bringing too much "noise" to the film. Maybe I should try it again with a clearer head and fresh perspective...

How can we root for Sully and Mike in college? Think about it.
by frankenberry
In Monsters, Inc., we see how traumatized the monsters have made this innocent little girl by scaring her. Remember how Boo reacted to Sully's roar in the control room? With that in mind, it's hard to root for Mike and Sully to train in college, knowing all the therapy these little kids will need. Maybe Mike and Sully will be undeclared, and scaring kids won't even be part of the movie.

Monsters Inc- the BEST final shot out of any Pixar movie

Frankly, its got one of the BEST final shots from a film of all time, I'd say.

Agreed, vader

I'm glad this is a prequel, because anything that takes place beyond that shot would tarnish it's greatness. I even tell myself that the musical from the credits takes place before the movie's end.

Never one of Your Faves?

The "shot" of Sully at night, in the snow...
by WriteForTheEdit
...with the flakes falling and catching in his fur, each hair moving in the breeze, was literally breathtaking. With Pixar, I'm usually caught up enough in the storytelling to not even notice the amazing animation, but that was one of the rare moments when the tech just blew me away. Very much psyched for this prequel.
May 16, 2011, 11:48 a.m. CST
Jesus, Merrick.
by Splinter
Whatever you were going through had to have been pretty heavy to dull the effect of Monsters Inc - it is one of the few perfect movies, imho. Absolutely up there with Pixar's best. It was always one of my favorites, but watching it over and over with my now 4-year old daughter elevated it again and again - it is a sublime, wonderful and pretty much flawless piece of work.

As others have said...
by pmsc
...MI was pretty much perfect, especially the ending. Not too psyched for a prequel (or a sequel). Just feels unnecessary, but it being Pixar, I'll give them to benefit of the doubt.
May 16, 2011, 12:24 p.m. CST
I see...
by bah
I figured the scaring would be more of a backdrop than a plot point. I think it will be interesting to see a world where scaring is still working. Maybe even finding out that the crisis (i.e. jaded kids) was the result of poor scaring. Or explaining why they didn't learn about laughing sooned.

Other questions they could address

Why the fear of kids? Was it an intentional deception? Who are Monsters Inc's competitors? What are some other locations in the monster world (we got a couple blocks of one city in the first movie)? How do they deal with bi-fold closet doors?

Monsters Inc way better than Cars
by Wcwlkr
I really enjoyed Monsters Inc it was pretty hilarious. Way better than Cars. Nowhere near close to the Incredibles which was the all time best. But I'd put it right there with Finding Nemo.

Billy Crystal....
by Darth Macchio
...was the basic deal-breaker for this movie for me. And I like his early work in SOAP but he just has this Billy Crystal "shtick" that he just never ever stops and I found it to bleed into his Monsters, Inc. character a bit and it unfairly biased my views against this movie. But, of course, I love John Goodman ("You see what you get when you.....??!?!") so that went a long towards correcting my bias but again... Crystal's 'shtick' was most obvious and most glaringly annoying in the "Analyze this!/that!" movies with Robert DeNiro. The scene where he pretends to be the mafia familiy's 'counselor' (the 'counsigliarie-(sic), whatever that word is in Italian) at that warehouse meeting and just goes off for like 5 minutes. Voice-over work is not an easy paycheck as many think and there are brilliant and terrible voice work from all over the place. But there are certain actors who tend to be their own audience and tend to not be able to pull themselves back from their own humor. Sometimes, that's ok as it can work; other times it's ok but gets old after being done again and again. And other times, it's not even that funny to begin with. Hank Azaria is an example of the first. His voicework is always consistently good. Even when his chosen dialect or accent is weird or oddly placed, he still does good work apart from his own persona (of course, he's an actor, not a comedian, but then these 'comedians' are hired as actors, not comedians in these roles, etc) Robin Williams is an example of the second. He can do amazing voiceover stuff but his "shtick" comes out sooner or later, if given enough lines, and it gets old very fast. And Billy Crystal is an example of the third: usually out of the box not funny and yet still pushing that same unfunny shtick. His voice tonality is fine but he seemingly just has to put in his own signature zing and screw it up. I haven't seen Monster, Inc in a long time and I don't recall it being gratuitous but I do recall at least 2 eye-roll inducing moments based on Billy doing his thing. Hate to complain here as I agree that this is a great movie but Crystal's stupid gimmick sours it a bit for me. I was convinced Jack Black would be the same in Kung fu Panda but he did amazing 'not very typical Jack Black-ish" type work and the movie was brilliant! (I was happy to be wrong on that in fact)
May 16, 2011, 2:28 p.m. CST
killdeer, I wouldn't exactly call Monsters, Inc. original
by Jaster
It's sort of an animated version of the Howie Mandell/Fred Savage film Little Monsters. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0097758/
May 16, 2011, 2:31 p.m. CST
Yeah, I'm totally with you on Crystal
by bah
I understand everything you said about him. I like the Mike Wazowski character. But there are a few moments where he becomes Crystal, and I don't like it. It's most noticable with his interjections during the credit song. He's not being Mike there, he's being Billy Crystal.
May 16, 2011, 2:43 p.m. CST
In the first movie, when Mike and Sulley are walking to work....
by F-18
Mike said something about them having been friends since fourth grade, but Pixar is changing it to them meeting in college and not being friends.
May 16, 2011, 2:52 p.m. CST
mr spork, I don't specifically remember that...
by Jaster
But if it's true than this prequel is even more bullshit than I thought. And yes Billy Crystal sucks douche water. I can only stand him in Monsters, Inc. In everything else I spend all my time trying to supress the need to kill.
May 16, 2011, 2:52 p.m. CST
"Youve been jealous of my good looks since the fourth grade, pal."
by bah
The synopsis says they met in school -- not *college* necessarily -- and they became friends at university. I'll withhold judgement on a potential and ultimately insignificant continuity error until the movie comes out.
May 16, 2011, 2:58 p.m. CST
Actually, it doesn't even say they became friends at university
by bah
May 16, 2011, 3:42 p.m. CST
Well, that's my point
by bah
Maybe 4th grade is in university for them. Or maybe they met in school, in 4th grade, and hated each other until college. The quote from the first movie does not imply they were friends. It arguably suggests the opposite.
May 16, 2011, 3:53 p.m. CST
by F-18
Being that the title is "Monsters University", I would say that is the school they met at. And did you event read the article? It does say they became friends at "university"(You must not be American, we say "college"). It says ""Monsters University" unlocks the door to how Mike and Sulley overcame there differences and became the best of friends." How does that not say they became friends there?
May 16, 2011, 3:59 p.m. CST
I read it and read re-read it
by bah
I still don't see where it explicitly says that. Oh, I'm sure it's a safe assumption. All I'm saying is that nothing given so far negates a throwaway line from the first movie. The title only suggests that's where the movie takes place. They could have known and disliked each other before. Hey, I became friends with people in and after college who I knew before and didn't especially like.
May 16, 2011, 4:11 p.m. CST
by F-18
You said, "Actually it doesn't even say they became friends at university." Yes it does. It's in the link and the red paragraph on this page. "When the two mismatched monsters met ast school, they couldn't stand each other. "Monsters University" unlocks the door to how Mike and Sully overcame their differances and became the best of friends."
May 16, 2011, 4:19 p.m. CST
Yes, yes, I said it's a safe assumption
by bah
But suppose, for example, the movie takes place in high school, and they're competing for a place at Monsters University (and sure, it'd probably be "Monsters High" is that were the case).
May 16, 2011, 4:28 p.m. CST
What assumption?????
by F-18
You said "it doesn't even say they become friends at university." The part of the article quoted on this very webpage in red letters says clearly that they do.

Pixar, enough of the FUCKING sequels!
by BigTuna
They went so long with only making one sequel to Toy Story. All were original stories. Now, it's just non-stop sequels. And you know there'd be no Cars 2 if it didn't make an obscene amount of money on merchandising.
May 16, 2011, 5:25 p.m. CST
BTW-I Agree Crystal killed Monster's Inc.
by BigTuna
That "Eye" character and Crystal's voice, playing Billy Crystal was so fucking annoying. It's why I never like the first film as much as most.
May 16, 2011, 5:51 p.m. CST
Ok, for the last time, no, it doesn't say that
by bah
It says that the movie titled "Monsters University" will tell how Mike and Sulley overcame their differences and became the best of friends. It does not say where the movie takes place or where their becoming friends happens.
May 16, 2011, 5:52 p.m. CST
Pixar Sequels/Prequels
by fat_rancor_keeper
What's everyone getting their panties in a bunch over Pixar doing a few sequels and prequels. This company is friggin near perfect. Did Toy Story 2 & 3 suck or something? Have some faith they know what they are doing. There will be more sequels and there will ALSO be more original stuff. Deal with it.

Monsters Inc. Pretty Much my Favourite
by Autodidact
It's definitely my favourite Pixar movie that's not in the Toy Story series. I have a real fondness for Bug's Life as well. Wall-E is the one I think is overrated beyond belief.

fat rancor keeper....
by jerseycajun
The reason is that in a sea of studio films which revel in sequels, remakes, and adaptations, Pixar was the only big studio branding itself with almost none of that. The expectation from them is to see something we haven't seen before, and pushing a few expectations on what animation is capable of in the American studio system. They're for the most part, stories we didn't know we wanted until after we saw them. That's exciting. I want to see them keep pushing themselves into areas they haven't explored yet. Brad Bird aptly said that animation is a medium which can handle any genre. I want to see a Pixar western/sci-fi or sci-fi/martial arts mash-up, or a Pixar giant city stomping monster flick, or their take on it. I want to see them do a sprawling fantasy in anamorphic panavision. Maybe a trilogy-by-design three-act epic. I want to know what the chef has that's "new", to quote Ratatouille. Other studios are comfortable with familiarity, but the most exciting films are the unexpected ones.

Gotta agree about Monster Inc's perfect ending
by Happyfat73
That smile on Mike's face, that little music cue... a piece of understated genius.</p> <p> It actually reminds me a lot of the last shot in Matchstick Men, with Nic Cage giving a similar smile. Love those heartwarming, smiley endings.

Just a reminder...
by jackofhearts29
The "fans'/critics' least favorites" of Pixar films (Cars, the TS sequels, Monsters, Bug's Life) are, without exception, also the TOP Pixar moneymakers. Therefore, they are the films that subsidize the "GOOD" Pixar films. They are also the ones the kids love, which helps keep Pixar alive and focused on its core goal of good storytelling for ALL ages. And seeing as the cash cows ain't that bad themselves when compared to the majority of Hollywood's output every year, I would ease off on the hate. Just sayin'.

Cars is the third LOWEST grossing Pixar film worldwide

And in the US, it was beat by Up, Incredibles, and Nemo. Even Monsters Inc beat it. http://www.the-numbers.com/movies/series/Pixar.php

My lil girl LOVES it!
by apsparky
Big difference between my son and my daughter... only 3 years separates them... but He was brought up with a VCR... she, DVDs. She also doesn't like standard animation... she much prefers the Pixar films... and I kinda think Monsters Inc. is her absolute favorite. She's 10 now. She'll be ready to be a teenager by the time the next one comes out... *sniff* (something in my eye)....

Monsters Inc is great

Looking forward to this one.

It's also a merchandising bonanza and trumps all of those you listed in terms of money it brings in from toys, sheets, pillows, shoes... you name it. If you're saying money is a determining factor in something, Cars is a juggernaut.

Granted, Cars was 3rd in Pixar box office takings, but it also did over $1 billion in merch post release. Sure, that went to Disney, but you know some of the love comes back to Pixar in many forms... including carte blanche to create whatever they like. Of course, it also brings the weasels out looking for their share of the pie... http://accesspixar.blogspot.com/2011/03/screenwriter-sues-pixar-claiming-cars.html

darth macchio. How DARE you sir.
by Juggernaut125
How DARE you post your negative opinion of Billy Crystal's voice work, citing examples, comparisons and a well thought out argument. Is this no long AICN? Where was the name calling? The foul language? The registered trademark signature sign off? Where was the bad spelling and grammar? tsk tsk tsk... ... disgraceful. Have you dignity? Have you self-respect? It was a good post. I don't agree with it (douche), but I can dig where your coming from. In closing, you're weird. Not because of your opinion, but because you expressed it very well.

I thought Jack Black was very Jack-Blackish in Kung Fu Panda - especially in the opening Voice-over, the tone of which sounds like it could have been lifted straight from Tenacious D. That said, it felt appropriate for Kung Fu Panda.</p> </p> Another actor/comedian whose schtick extends to his V/O work would have to be Russell Brand. Although, I admit I don't mind Brand's particular brand of well-articulated idiocy.

Not terribly excited by the planned story so far
by conspiracy
...but who cares; when Pixar does a film, ANY film, Ben Bernanke turns green with envy at how easily they all but print cash. And Cars2 will do every bit of $300M Domestic..and most likely another solid $1B in merchandizing sales. When it ties in with "Carsland" opening in 2012...the $$$ will flow in so hard and fast Disney will replace all the toilet paper in the Executive shitters with $100 bills. Go Pixar GO! DIS @ $52/share target price for the year on a $40.50 buy in....make up for Mars Needs Moms and Feed my Dividend you fuckers!

While we're slaughtering the sacred Crystal cow...
by bah
I can get this off my chest: I HATE MIRACLE MAX! From the moment he opens the door going "What? What?" in a Brooklyn Jewish accent, you can see he desperately wants you to gleefully gasp "It's Billy Crystal!" He tries to top every one of Carol Kane's lines and make it his. He works hard to take you OUT of the movie. It's a shame he has so many classic lines, but I'd argue it's the fact that they're in that movie that makes them classic, not his delivery of them. Going on a tangent now, Martin Short and Christopher Guest are sort of the same way. They have the chops to lose themselves in a role, but at the same time, you can tell they want you to NOTICE they're losing themselves in a role. I have a feeling that Short's monologue in Three Amigos about mingling with old Hollywood is what he's really like. I once saw all three of those guys talking about their time at SNL. They were sickeningly self-satisfied, and it ruined some of those skits for me. Short gets a pass for humping Miss Piggy, though. Well, I've gone this far, might as well say it: Tom Hanks does it too. I respect the guy, but I have never once seen him on screen and NOT thought "That's Tom Hanks". Not even with a beard in Cast Away. That just makes me think, "Wow, Tom Hanks grew a beard!" Again, it's like he wants you to notice how deep into the character he is. And to bring this rant full circle, yes, that goes for Woody. I like Woody, but he never lets me forget it's really Tom Hanks.

Which all speaks to what I've always said about Pixar vs others
by bah
Toy Story and Monsters Inc are the only Pixar films for which they pushed the voice actors in the advertising at all. I rarely know who's voicing a Pixar character before the credits roll. The other studios, on the other hand, literally design their characters after the actor, and then the posters are nothing but the character mugging at the camera with the actor's name on its forehead. I swear by all that is holy, I saw the character from Kung Fu Panda before I knew it was Jack Black...and I knew it was Jack Black! I hear Rango was good, but I was immediately put off by the "Johnny Depp is Rango!" posters. And why is that important? Because it tells me you want me to be thinking about the actor doing the voice in your animated movie instead of noticing your weak-ass story and ugly computer work.

Watch it again Merrick
by VXXXJesterXXXV
My two least favorite Pixar films have always been Cars and Monster's Inc. When I picked up Monster's Inc on blu ray and gave it another shot I was surprised by how much I ended up enjoying myself. Cars is much the same, though in my opinion still the "worst" of the Pixar flicks, which means still better than most animated movies.....

So here's a question
by Dave Coates
Why does it have to be about scaring kids at all? You've got to think there are other jobs in the monster world aside from scare-energy (and, well, sushi chef). The whole movie could be about them being majors in something entirely different and then ending up at the power plant.
May 17, 2011, 8:54 a.m. CST
Exactly, Col.
by bah
The first movie showed very, VERY little of the monster world.

Tom Hanks had the same problem you did when ever he met Tony Randall.
May 17, 2011, 12:19 p.m. CST
Oooo, obscure. Nice.
by bah
I should have mentioned I DO like Hanks a lot when he's doing comedy, especially SNL. I wish he was less serious all around.

We get an unnecessary prequel to one of Pixar's average movies, buts STILL no Incredibles 2 !?!?!?!?! W... T.... F!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Coach advises Green how to get 400m hurdles medal
LONDON, England — Lennox Graham, coach of Olympic 400m hurdles finalist Leford Green, has advised that the athlete focus on the technical aspects of his race this afternoon rather than running for a fast time.
Green, who won his third straight Jamaican national title at the JAAA/Supreme Ventures National Senor Trials in June, ran a season best 48.61 seconds in the semi-finals on Saturday to finish second behind American Michael Tinsley and secure an automatic spot in the finals in his first Olympic Games.
After battling leg injuries earlier in the season that limited his competition schedule, Green came into the Olympic Games with only five races but has hit his best form at the right time.
Graham, who is in North Carolina, told the Jamaica Observer in an interview that Green "needs to focus on technical areas of
his race. On Saturday, he ran the middle perfectly but had errors in the straight".
Graham, who has coached Green for the past six years in his one season at Kingston College and four at Johnson C Smith University, said his athlete "needs to again get the middle right and attack the hurdles when he kicks, not just run the rhythm and be passive hurdling. That will allow him to get the ninth hurdle in rhythm instead of chopping his strides."
The coach said Green, who has a personal best 48.47 seconds — set while winning gold at the Central American and Caribbean Championships in Puerto Rico two years ago — will have to run a new personal best to medal.
"I think it will take 47.8 seconds to medal, but I think he should focus on the execution as I described and not the medal. Execution will determine time and time will determine medal, so focusing on medal would be incorrect,"
said Graham.
A medal for Green, he said, is not out of the question. However, "if he executes right, then I believe he can get in there in the 47s and therefore has a chance to be on the podium."
Graham said he has been communicating with Green via the Internet and has seen some recorded practices, and while that is not ideal, as it is does not provide feedback in a timely manner, "it's the best we could do at this time and it is working out in a positive way right now. Not the best, but the best in the circumstances."
His being based in the United States, Graham said, also has its disadvantages in that "I still have not seen a good version of the race as the Internet was 'freezing' the video and NBC did not show the race last night (Saturday night), so it's a huge disadvantage."

Sung to the tune of "Mamma Mia" by ABBA - it helps if you just listen to it and read the lyrics along w/ the song
Lyrics by GoldBlooded Copyright 2012
I've been trolled by you since I don't know when
So I made up my mind, it must come to an end
Look at them now, will I ever read?
I don't know how, but I suddenly lose control
There's a fire within my soul
JUST ONE Z and I can start commenting
ONE MORE Z and I forget everything
Oh oh oh oh -
I'm-a Z Ya
Here they go again
Z Z, who cannot resist a "zed"?
I'm-a Z Ya
Politics again?
Z Z, just another cricket thread
Yes, I've read through this stuff,
Pissed off atoms are enough
Shift+A, all of these new comments blow
I'm-a Z ya, fuck this DBD
Z Z, Indian fight with Rishi
I've been angry and sad at the things that you do
I can't count all the threads that I've had to Z through
And when you post, a giant meat picture
I think you know you did not use a header
You know what MRF would prefer
JUST ONE Z and GB's trolling can stop
ONE MORE Z and there goes RB's pchop
Oh oh oh oh,
I'm-a Z ya,
This airplane shit again?
Z Z, I don't give two flying fucks
I'm-a Z ya,
Crappy shows again?
Z Z, uh-oh, here comes fiatlux
Cugel just fell for the Onion
Scootie wants to bone Paul Bunyan
Z Z, wherever did Danzig go?
I'm-a Z ya, a good post today?
Never mind, another Twist photo essay
I'm-a Z ya, should I work today?
Guess not, android games I must play
I'm-a Z ya, Spazzy's weatherman
Z Z, four more weeks of no snow
I'm-a Z ya, Bush's biggest fan
Z Z, fifteen hundred comments mo'
Kodiak broke all his bones
Boomtho bought twenty new phones
Z Z, have I even reached the end?
I'm-a Z ya, getting close to noon
Z Z, two thousand more comments soon.

Heights rolls out Welcome Back Trinity bandwagon - Campus plus community equals College Town
- Written by Tim Hadac
Palos Heights' first-ever public campaign to welcome Trinity Christian College students back to campus continued this week with the announcement that nearly four dozen local businesses have agreed to offer discounts on goods and services.
Trinity students and faculty who present school IDs will receive a head-to-toe range of discounts offered by hair/nail salons, shoe and clothing stores, ice cream parlors, candy stores, restaurants, florists, jewelers, gift shops, paint and hardware stores, auto service shops and more.
"This effort is exceeding all expectations," said Rick Powell, a member of the city's Business/Economic Advisory Committee, which is spearheading the campaign. "It's fabulous, and based on the buzz that has been created, it's already a success."
"We want all Trinity students — and their parents — to be fully aware of all the great shopping and dining options we have right here," added Powell, who lives just two blocks from campus with his wife, Patti, an associate professor of education at the college.
"Our goals are to make the students feel welcome in Palos Heights, to convince our local business community to offer discounts and extend a hand of friendship, and strengthen our ties with the college," he continued.
The upbeat "welcome back" effort has taken on the trappings of a political campaign to a degree, with more than 150 blue and white lawn signs dotting parkways on major streets.
"It's cool. It's such a wonderful thing to see," Trinity President Steven Timmermans said of the cheerful signs. "We have always had good channels of communication [with Palos Heights and the local business community]. The attitude has always been there, but this is a first. It's good to see it visually."
A number of Trinity students — such as athletes — have already returned to campus, but the majority that includes freshmen and transfer students here for the first time will be arriving tomorrow.
Those students, Timmermans added, are typically unfamiliar with the area and hail from other parts of Illinois and such places as Michigan, Iowa, Wisconsin and California. "We're a national draw," he noted about the liberal arts college that has an enrollment of about 1,400 engaged in dozens of programs of study and which in 2010 was ranked as one of the top baccalaureate colleges in the Midwest by U.S. News & World Report.
Making those new students feel welcome is doubly important, he observed.
Committee officials will staff a hospitality tent at Trinity's Welcome Back event, set for 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. tomorrow, offering refreshments, introducing themselves to students, parents and faculty and encouraging them to discover Palos Heights' business community.
A list of local businesses offering special discounts to Trinity students and staff can be found at palosheights.org. The discounts are generally good for 30 days, although some businesses may choose to extend or revise the offers after that.
Beyond the students, the "welcome back" campaign is good for the morale of the entire community, said committee member Jeff Key at a meeting Monday. "It's fun to think of Palos Heights as a college town," he observed, "It's a homey feeling. It feels good."

As the name suggests, this revamped spot beneath the Finborough Theatre is part coffee-&-cake joint, part independent wine shop/bar. The main attraction is certainly the fruit of the vine, with some 30 bins available by the glass or carafe for those sitting in – plus 'tasters' for those after a bottle to take home. If you can't decide, £8 buys a sampler flight of 12 boutique offerings from the cellar. The list changes regularly, but star buys might include a 2009 JL Wolf Organic Riesling (from a 500-case estate in Germany) & biodynamic 2008 Le Ban St-Aubin from Burgundy. The food menu is short & sweet, encompassing homemade cakes for the coffee crowd & platters of cheese or cold meats if you're hovering over a carafe.

Puget Sound Energy announced on Tuesday, Jan. 15 that the city of Mercer Island will receive a $30,000 grant from PSE to fund a solar photovoltaic project at the Mercer Island Community and Event Center.
Over 750 residential and business participants subscribed the local power utility's Green Power Program by the end of December, 2012 as part of a community-wide challenge, titled "Mercer Island Gets Green… One Hero at a Time". In recognition of meeting the goal the power company will help pay for a solar array to provide power to the Community Center, teach students about clean renewable energy and remind visitors that Mercer Island "Gets Green".
A celebration is being planned at 6 p.m., prior to Mercer Island City Council's Jan. 22 meeting at City Hall. Green Power customers are invited to join the party as PSE presents a check to the city and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency recognizes Mercer Island as a Green Power Community.
"The community support for this program has been terrific—55 percent more residents are Green Power customers today compared to a year ago," said Mercer Island Mayor Bruce Bassett.
In 2012, PSE teamed with the city of Mercer Island, the Green Ribbon Commission and the Mercer Island School District to challenge local residents and businesses to become a Mercer Island Energy Hero and enroll in PSE's Green Power Program.
As an added incentive to participate in the challenge, upon enrolling in the Green Power Program new members could designate their favorite school PTA or other select associations on the island to receive a $10 donation on their behalf. The association with the most designations at the end of the challenge would receive a $500 bonus for a green initiative of their choice.
Donations could be made to: Mercer Island High School, Crest Learning Center, Islander Middle School, Island Park Elementary School, Lakeridge Elementary School, West Mercer Elementary School, Emmanuel Episcopal Church, Stroum Jewish Community Center (JCC) or IslandVision.
Mercer Island High School received the most designations and will receive $960, including the $500 bonus. The remaining associations earned a combined $1,400 in funds for their organization.
"Through this partnership with the City and PSE, our schools have been able to raise money while supporting a greener environment. It has been a win-win for everyone," said Mercer Island School District Superintendent Dr. Gary Plano.
Since the challenge started a total of 266 Mercer Island residents enrolled in PSE's Green Power Program, bringing the total to exactly 750 customers in the city of Mercer Island. Signing up to purchase clean renewable energy means Mercer Island residents and businesses prevented more than 8.17 million pounds of carbon dioxide from entering the atmosphere by purchasing more than 5.81 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of green power in 2012.
PSE's voluntary Green Power Program gives PSE electric customers a way to guarantee that some or all of the energy they use is matched in the electric grid with clean electricity from wind, solar, biogas and other renewable energy sources from the West. None of the renewable energy in PSE's Green Power Program is generated by PSE; it all comes from independent producers of renewable power.
With two participation options, PSE residential customers can purchase 100 percent green power for approximately $10 to $12 a month based on their actual usage or buy a specific amount, with a minimum purchase of $4 per month for 320 kWh. Additional green power can be bought in increments of $2 for 160 kWh. Business customers can also participate at rates specific to their situation.
For more information about Mercer Island Gets Green, or to sign up for PSE's Green Power Program visit PSE.com/GreenPower or call a PSE Energy Advisor at 1-800-562-1482, Monday through Friday, between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m.

Alcohol's Affect on Brain Health
While too much alcohol can muddle your brain, moderate daily tippling can help keep you thinking clear over the long term, according to two new studies.
The first—the largest to date—looked at more than 11,000 women ages 70 to 81 and found that those who regularly sipped up to one drink a day were more mentally agile than abstainers. Specifically, they were about 20 percent less likely to score poorly on a cognitive test and 15 percent less likely to see their score drop substantially over a two-year stretch.
A second, smaller study came up with even more impressive findings. Researchers at Wake Forest University followed nearly 4,500 women ages 65 to 79 for an average of four years and concluded that those downing one to three drinks per day were 60 percent less likely to suffer a big hit in cognitive function than teetotalers.
How, exactly, might alcohol help the brain? In several ways, says Mark Espeland, the Wake Forest study's lead researcher and a professor of biostatistics and epidemiology. "It may work by improving blood flow, increasing levels of 'good' HDL cholesterol, or reducing the plaques associated with Alzheimer's disease."
Whatever the mechanism, it's good news for those who enjoy a glass with dinner—perhaps even a reason to start.

The Rack can be found to the right of the obvious chimney on the east end of Two Pines Buttress. It is easily identified by looking for the right-curving overhang/crack. Start the climb by using ledges to make your way up to the crack. Jam the crack up to where it turns to the right. From here traverse right with hands in the crack and feet smearing. Once you get to the end of the crack (near the corner) mantel up to the ledge, then continue up the south-facing corner and face to the top.

Jhonny Peralta to rejoin Tigers on Wednesday, but no decision to activate yet
DETROIT - Jhonny Peralta will rejoin the Detroit Tigers on Wednesday, Team President Dave Dombrowski told reporters before Tuesday.
Dombrowski said no decision has been made with regards to activating Peralta. His suspension ends September 26.
The team released the following statement:
"In accordance with the protocols outlined by Major League Baseball's collective bargaining agreement, Jhonny Peralta will join the club for workouts in Chicago beginning on Wednesday. There has been no decision made regarding Peralta's return to the active roster. It is an organizational decision to allow Jhonny to workout with the club in order to see if it will be in the best interest of the team to have him return at the end of his suspension."
On August 5, the shortstop was suspended for 50 games by Major League Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig. Peralta is one of 14 Major League Baseball players with ties to the Biogenesis clinic who were disciplined for violating the league's Joint Drug Agreement.
The Tigers acquired Jose Iglesias from the Boston Red Sox, who has played shortstop in Peralta's absence.
In a statement released to the media soon after the suspension, Peralta said, "In spring of 2012, I made a terrible mistake that I deeply regret. I apologize to everyone that I have hurt as a result of my mistake, including my teammates, the Tigers' organization, the great fans in Detroit, Major League Baseball, and my family. I take full responsibility for my actions, have no excuses for my lapse in judgment and I accept my suspension.
"I love the fans, my teammates and this organization and my greatest punishment is knowing that I have let so many good people down. I promise to do everything possible to try and earn back the respect that I have lost."
If Peralta returns, he will have only three regular season games to play before the playoffs.

We named our oldest son Clint after my grandfather, who turned 90 shortly after our son was born. My grandfather is a sweet, gentle man and my son follows suit. He has always been sweet, cautious, caring, observant, detail oriented and patient. I love the sound of the name because to me, it is a classic, southern name that is rarely used anymore.

Americans snapped up new homes in June at the fastest pace in 5 years. Despite the increase in home sale, mortage interest rates keep jumping.
According to CNBC, mortgage rates are up 45 percent in the past 6 weeks. Despite this, analysts say the rates were bound to go up, and now still can be a good time to buy a home.
Lukcily, the cost of buying a new house shouldn't go up. Fannie Mae researchers recently looked at mortgage rates going all the way back to 1990 and found rising rates virtually had no impact on home prices.
The folks at Money Magazine made a list of five things you need to know in today's market.
1. No more record rates, but cheap loans are still available.
2. The refi window is starting to close.
3. Higher rates won't scuttle the housing recovery.
4. Once you're ready to buy, lock in.
5. Fixed loans usually beat adjustables.
