the back story
We are a small company in Naperville, Illinois who had a little idea to reinvent the way kids eat lunch—making lunchtime easier, more inspiring and fun for both kids and parents. From the beginning, we decided to be as transparent as possible about our decisions as a company: how we produce, ship and get product to market. Below, you'll find information about our materials, suppliers, vendors and craftsmen whose unrelenting energy has made Goodbyn possible.
Conceived in Seattle and Chicago
As we concepted Goodbyn and researched kids' eating habits, we wanted a team of people who meshed with our beliefs, but had the unique background of research-driven, modern product design. We thought we'd be searching for a while, but (almost immediately) we were able to form a team with the expertise and design aesthetic that enables Goodbyn to look as cool as it does while making lunchtime for kids smarter than ever.
Made on Earth!
Goodbyn started out as an American brand, made in USA. During our four years of being in business we have become an international brand, sold in over 25 countries. Our goal has always been to solve the problem of trash created by one-time-use packaging and to offer our products at the most affordable price, to as many as possible. We believe we have succeeded on the first account but that our pricing has always excluded a lot more people than we would like. Our mission is still the same - where we make our products has changed. In order to survive as a business, expand our line and make our products more affordable, we made the decision to manufacture overseas. We work with well established factorys that maintain high-safety standards and are working towards sustainable practices. We import only forecasted amounts that will sell domestically - we ship on demand amounts directly to our distributors in other countries - thereby actually lessening the carbon footprint and costs that our exporting created.
If you have specific questions or opinions about our manufacturing choices, or suggestions on how we could be doing it better, in America, we look forward to hearing from you. You can reach Goodbyn anytime by email or phone:

Living in Virginia, the biggest sports news I read often revolves around the Atlantic Coast Conference. Although rumors of conference changes were swirling throughout the country, the ACC admitted Syracuse and Pittsburgh on Sept. 18. The two universities cited the need for "more long-term financial stability," and the ACC became the first major conference with 14 football teams.
The day after the ACC announcement, the universities of Texas and Oklahoma confirmed they were looking at alternatives to the Big 12. College sports seem poised to consolidate around a small number (the number most frequently mentioned is four) of super conferences.
By coincidence, this is the number of major vessel alliances in the liner shipping industry. These alliances are the result of liner shipping companies seeking economies of scope and scale over the past 20 years.
The Pac-12 Conference is considering expansion through a "Noah's Ark" model. Texas would join with Texas Tech, and/or Oklahoma and Oklahoma State. The same model was applied 20 years ago, when the first vessel-sharing agreements were initiated. The first pairings were between lines with common traditions of service (APL-OOCL and Maersk-Sea-Land.) In the resulting game of musical chairs, many other lines scurried to find a partner.
This all occurred in liner shipping's "good old days." Conferences were still legal; however, the conference lines found their previously unassailable market share under attack from independent carriers. The paired-up lines hoped trading slots on each other's vessels could help them withstand the competitive forces of "new" entrants such as Evergreen Line, Hanjin Shipping and Hyundai Merchant Marine.
The strategy didn't work. In recognition of the limited economic benefits, lines went on to form even larger VSAs as they sought to withstand the competitive forces of still-newer entrants such as Cosco, China Shipping, Mediterranean Shipping and CMA CGM. The one exception was that Maersk acquired its partner, Sea-Land Service, to gain otherwise unattainable overhead savings.
The result was that some conference and non-conference lines aligned, making for some interesting arrangements. A friend once recounted how he was severely criticized for "losing" very high-paying cargo. He responded it was still on the vessel — just moving with the competitor/partner who had slashed the rate. That shouldn't have happened, he was advised, because "they had promised not to do that."
The passage of the Ocean Shipping Reform Act in 1998, followed by China's entrance into the World Trade Organization, changed everything. Shippers, who had learned about deregulation in air, rail and truck, forced rates down as they demanded new services. The top 15 carriers grouped together into four-plus alliances. In some cases, alliances even grouped together on some services.
Conference changes in college sports have attracted much interest. There is some fear it also could raise the interest of Congress. The liner industry faces the same problem. Although conferences disappeared, there have been concerns — not just in the United States — the ensuing discussion agreements seek similar, non-competitive outcomes. While ocean carriers cite significant operational efficiencies that benefit all, some shippers view collective action on accessorial charges as anti-competitive behavior.
In the college football sphere, Brigham Young and Notre Dame have run counter to the conference trend by remaining independent, at least in football. Maersk Line has gone somewhat independent in the Asia-Europe trade, with its Daily Maersk product. It will provide daily service between four ports in Asia and three ports in Europe — with identical service commitments. For shippers, it is a simple "all Maersk, all the time" opportunity, as Maersk has eschewed working with its alliance partners, although they remain together in other services.
No other carrier could immediately replicate this bold move. However, the issue involves more than sufficient capacity and schedule simplicity. Maersk is simultaneously implementing a series of penalties for service delays (on their part) and load no-shows (on the part of shippers). It's highly improbable other lines will agree to pay penalties due to service failures on the part of their vessel partner.
Liner shipping alliances and college sports share some similar challenges.
Competitive histories and geopolitical sensitivities mean nothing in a market characterized by instability, angst and a seemingly endless search for financial stability. Many executives undoubtedly feel the need to "do something" — even if it's wrong — so as not to be accused later of missing out on new opportunities.

5 Best AARP Research Infographics of 2013
Posted By Becky Gillan On January 2, 2014 @ 12:41 pm In Notebook | Comments Disabled
The end of the year & beginning of a new year is the time when everyone makes their "lists," so here's mine. 2013 was the year of the infographics for AARP Research. Infographics allow us to succinctly communicate important facts as well as tell an overall data story in a visual manner. We learned, like many others, that visual images get more attention than text as the brain can process the visual faster.
Of the 48 infographics AARP Research has posted on the aarp.org website, here are my five favorite, with a factual highlight from each. Click through any of the thumbnails to see the infographics in full size.
[1]1. The Things That Make Us Happy
At what age are people the least happy [2]? 50! Stress from children living at home, work, and older parents make it a difficult age.
2. Caregivers: Life Changes & Coping Strategies
44% of caregivers say they cope [4] by clamming up inside.
[5]3. New Normal for Experienced Workers
60% of older workers say they work because they need the money.
[6]4. Hispanic/Latinos 50+ in the US
The Hispanic 50+ population is expected to grow 238% by 2050 to 32 million.
[7]5. Older Adults & Technology
Among 50+ adults who use laptops and tablets, 73% have made a purchase online.
If you're interested in creating infographics of your own, here are some tips we've learned through our own trial and error this past year:
In 2014, we're looking to create even more (and better!) infographics. We may even branch into some interactive visuals…
Stay tuned and Happy New Year!

Milone optioned to Sacramento
With a pair of off-days looming and no need for a fifth starter until Aug. 13, the A's opted to exchange one of their starters for relief help from Triple-A Sacramento on Saturday.
Struggling lefty Tommy Milone, who gave up six runs on nine hits, including two two-run homers, in just 3 2/3 innings in a loss to the Rangers on Friday, was the odd man out. Long reliever Evan Scribner took his roster spot.
"Tommy just needs to go down there and do his thing," manager Bob Melvin said. "He went through a little period here recently where he hasn't been pitching great, but he's still pretty good. And when you're sending a guy like Tommy Milone down, it means you have some good pitching, and we do.
"He's been giving up some hits, and maybe his command isn't like it was earlier. Last night was his worst game. He's had a couple of these in his last four. We still have a lot of confidence in Tommy. He's a big part of this team, he's just not here right now."
Friday marked the second time in his last four starts of pitching fewer than four innings for Milone, who has a 4.81 ERA over his last 14 starts after posting a 3.71 ERA during his first eight.
He'll start for the River Cats on Thursday in Omaha.
"Obviously I feel like I haven't pitched like myself lately," Milone said, "and I think it could be good to go down and work on myself and work on getting back to what I think I am and what I know I am as a pitcher, and hopefully I'll be back up here soon.
"I feel like that's the kind of pitcher I am, the guy who's always consistent and tries to keep their team in the game, and I haven't been that guy. Hopefully I can get that back."
Scribner joins the A's for the third time this year but first since May 10 when he was optioned to Sacramento, where he has a 2.48 ERA in 25 relief appearances. He comes to the A's having not pitched in two days, giving them a fresh arm following Dan Otero's 42-pitch relief performance on Friday.
"Throwing as many pitches as he did yesterday," Melvin said, "you get into an extra-inning game today and you don't want to get caught short.
"Scrib's pitched in any number of roles for us. He's matched up, pitched an inning later in games, pitched length for us. He's a very versatile bullpen piece."
"It's always fun to pack your whole life up in an hour," joked Scribner, who got word of his promotion early Saturday. "Down there I felt great, throwing strikes, getting ahead. It's frustrating being away from the team but we have fun down there too. It's something I think about on an everyday basis but I try to stay focused on doing my own thing to try to get back as fast I could."
Callaspo to join A's on Wednesday
2009 first-round Draft pick Grant Green's place as Oakland's second baseman of the future is no more. That's because the A's focus isn't so much on the future as it is the present, which is why they traded Green to the Angels on Tuesday night in exchange for infielder Alberto Callaspo.
The switch-hitting Callaspo will mainly play second base for the first-place A's, who had been looking for an offensive upgrade against left-handed pitching at the position — currently shared by platoon players Eric Sogard and Adam Rosales — before Wednesday's non-waiver Trade Deadline, as their pursuit to a second straight playoff appearance continues.
Rosales is likely to be designated for assignment prior to Wednesday's matinee against the Blue Jays upon Callaspo's arrival.
"We needed some infield help, particularly someone who could help swing from the right side," A's general manager Billy Beane said. "We're pretty thin infield-wise, when you start thinking about the fact we've played Josh [Donaldson] pretty much every inning of almost every game. He can give Josh a breather. He can hit against left-handed pitching, play some second base."
Beane didn't anticipate any other moves before Wednesday's 1 p.m. PST Trade Deadline, saying he was "not currently" engaged in other trade talks.
"Sometimes things happen quickly," he said, "but I would say probably not. You never know. You get calls sometimes early in the morning on the last day, but at this point I don't see anything right now."
Callaspo, 30 and in his eighth Major League season, has strictly played third base in each of the last three seasons. He hasn't played at second since 2010 and hasn't been a regular there since 2008, but he offers the A's a better bat against left-handers than Rosales, who was hitting just .197 entering the day.
For his career, Callaspo has favored the right side of the plate, posting a .763 OPS next to a .696 clip as a left-handed hitter.
The second-base platoon likely stays intact, then, with Sogard and Callaspo sharing duties at the position, leaving Jed Lowrie to remain at shortstop on an everyday basis going forward, with Sogard acting as his backup.
Beane, who began fielding calls from the Angels on Monday morning, didn't shy away from questions regarding Callaspo's absence from second base, stating up front, "I am concerned."
"But he has played it a lot in the past, and there wasn't a huge availability of that type of player," he continued. "He's going to have to get over there. We were in a situation where we needed another infielder."
Callaspo was batting .253 with five home runs and 36 RBIs in 85 games for the Angels, having also compiled 33 walks next to just 22 strikeouts spanning 334 plate appearances.
He is owed roughly $6 million, including $4.875 million in 2014, and the A's are expected to pay all of it.
"I think he's a great player," said Chris Young, a teammate of Callaspo in 2007 in Arizona. "He's really good defensively, and he's a guy that's going to put the ball in play. Great bat control, one of the better bat control guys in the league. I think he has a great approach at the plate and is able to make a difference up there and keep things moving."
"He's a quality player," said Donaldson. "He's one of those guys that can be a table-setter and get on base a lot. He's solid in all parts of the game."
Green, 25, made his Major League debut for Oakland on July 8, ultimately going hitless in 15 at-bats spanning five games while committing three errors. Defense has always been a concern for Green, whose movement between positions in the Minors slowed his journey to the big leagues.
However, the A's always thought highly of his bat, which registered a .325 average with 27 doubles and 11 home runs in 87 games for Triple-A Sacramento this year. He was a late scratch from the River Cats' game on Tuesday night, around the same time Callaspo was pulled from the Angels' game in Texas.
Beane admitted giving up a first-rounder wasn't easy, but it wasn't "so much a matter of things not working out with him."
"It's just a matter of addressing a need for a first-place team and recognizing and trying to grasp the present," he explained. "We're in a pretty unique position. I think we need to do everything we can to help this club out. The guys here, Bob [Melvin], the staff and the people that follow this team deserve that. We did think highly of Grant, and the price was steep, but it was a sellers' market for this position, and not many guys out there, but we needed to get somebody."
It's a sentiment appreciated by his employees.
"In a clubhouse, no matter what happens, you believe you have what it takes," Young said. "We've been able to play pretty well this season, but any time a move is made in an attempt to make the team better, you have to respect it."
Said Sogard: "Any way we can improve, absolutely. We're looking forward to this last stretch, and hopefully we can keep this going. [Callaspo] is a great player. He's been a hassle for us, so it's great to have him on our side. I think he'll be a great fit in our clubhouse."
Beane: "Not currently" involved in more trade talks
After striking a deal with the Angels on Tuesday night for Alberto Callaspo, A's general manager Billy Beane said he is "not currently" engaged in other trade talks, meaning Wednesday's non-waiver trade deadline could pass without any further movement in Oakland.
"Sometimes things happen quickly," Beane said, "but I would say probably not. You never know. You get calls sometimes early in the morning on the last day, but at this point I don't see anything right now."
In recent days, the A's were looking for pitching help, and it was right-hander Jake Peavy's name that was mentioned most in rumor circles. Peavy officially became a member of the Red Sox on Tuesday night, and while Beane wouldn't comment specifically on him, he did say he's happy with his current in-house options.
That includes rehabbing lefty Brett Anderson, anticipated to rejoin the A's in mid-August, and top prospect Sonny Gray.
"Brett's doing well, and we anticipate his arrival soon," Beane said. "At some point, we have to recognize the way Sonny Gray's pitching. He becomes an option for us somewhere. We always had that in the back of our mind, too, that we always had some in-house options that were quickly going to be able to contribute."
A's trade Green to Angels for Callaspo
OAKLAND — The A's gave away former first-round Draft pick Grant Green to the Angels on Tuesday in exchange for a proven infielder in Alberto Callaspo.
According to a source, Callaspo will play second base for the A's, who had been looking for an offensive upgrade at the position — currently shared by platoon players Eric Sogard and Adam Rosales — before Wednesday's non-waiver Trade Deadline.
Callaspo, 30 and in his eighth Major League season, has spent the majority of the last few years at third base. He hasn't played at second since 2010, but he offers the A's a better bat against left-handers than Rosales, who was hitting just .197 entering the day.
The second-base platoon likely stays intact, then, with Sogard and Callaspo sharing duties at the position, leaving Jed Lowrie to remain at shortstop on an everyday basis going forward.
Callaspo, pulled from the Angels' game in the top of the sixth in Texas on Tuesday night, was batting .253 with five home runs and 36 RBIs in 85 games for the Angels. He is owed roughly $6 million, including $4.875 million in 2014, and the A's are expected to pay all of it.
Green, 25, made his Major League debut for Oakland on July 8, ultimately going hitless in 15 at-bats spanning five games while committing three errors. Defense has always been a concern for Green, whose movement between positions in the Minors slowed his journey to the big leagues.
However, the A's always thought highly of his bat, which registered a .325 average with 27 doubles and 11 home runs in 87 games for Triple-A Sacramento this year. He was a late scratch from the River Cats' game on Tuesday night, around the same time Callaspo was pulled.
Jaso undergoes series of concussion tests again
HOUSTON — A's catcher John Jaso has taken a foul ball to his face mask twice in as many days, leading to doctor visits on both occasions to check for concussion symptoms.
Following Wednesday's 4-3 win in Houston, which he departed after seven innings, Jaso underwent a series of vision tests, which came back normal. However, he still felt dizzy, making his availability for upcoming games uncertain.
Jaso, at least, should be able to rest Thursday, with a lefty in CJ Wilson throwing for the Angels and Derek Norris likely drawing the start at catcher.
"My brain might like the rest, but at the same time I want to play," Jaso said before boarding the team charter. "I feel good right now. I feel like I'm working really good at-bats, so it's definitely not a time I'd want to rest or whatever. A lot of it will have to do with the trainer and what he feels is best."
Jaso went 2-for-3 with a home run, a double and a walk on Wednesday, before a foul ball drilled his mask in the seventh. On Tuesday, the same happened in the sixth.
"He was cleared and good for the game, and once he took another one, he told me he had a little headache and that was it," manager Bob Melvin said. "You can't chance that."
Jaso is very familiar with concussion tests, having undergone them in the Minors when he was diagnosed with one.
"It's definitely nothing new to me, it just gets a little scary sometimes," he said. "Like yesterday after I got hit, I was kind of fearing the pitch he was going to throw after that. I had to call time because I didn't know whether I was going to see the pitch or not. I don't want to hurt the team at the same time. I know, blocking balls, I want to be on top of that in one-run ballgames. I don't want to let pride get in the way of that.
"We're going to have to see how things go. I've got some head problems right now. I don't like making a habit of this."
Green at second base, batting eighth in A's debut
PITTSBURGH — The Grant Green era officially began on Monday, when the A's brought their former first-round pick to Pittsburgh to play second base and bat eighth in their series opener against the Pirates.
To make room on the roster for Green, the A's designated Adam Rosales for assignment.
This has been four years in the making for Green, drafted out of college as a shortstop in 2009 before embarking on a somewhat lengthy journey to the Majors, playing six different positions along the way while his employers debated the best fit. He's finally found a home at second base.
"I feel really comfortable there," Green said. "It's kind of just second nature now. Being able to play there pretty much every day the last couple of weeks has really helped.
"It's a move I'm OK with now. It was kind of mind-boggling at first with all the position changes, but they always said it was for the better in the long run, and it's definitely worked out."
The plan is for Green to platoon with Eric Sogard at second base on a first-place A's club, getting starts against left-handed pitching — a move that finally brings permanency to Jed Lowrie's place at shortstop, his natural position. As for Lowrie's backup, manager Bob Melvin says that job belongs to Sogard.
Green, 25 was hitting .318 with a .374 on-base percentage, next to 11 home runs, 25 doubles and 49 RBIs in 81 games with Triple-A Sacramento.
"He's swinging the bat really well, he's had real good at-bats against left-handed pitching and is way more comfortable at [second base] now," Melvin said. "We just felt like the way he was playing at the time, it was the right time to get him here and get him the opportunity."
"It's a great feeling knowing that the organization and the people at the top feel comfortable in my ability to play this game at a high level," Green said. "Even when the team's playing very well, they're going to call me up and see what I got."
Green had all of his immediate family on hand for his debut in Pittsburgh, which includes dad Gregg, mom Valerie, brother Garett and sister-in-law Ashley, all from the Southern California area.
They were his first call after he learned of his promotion from Sacramento manager Steve Scarsone on Sunday afternoon in Fresno, shortly before the River Cats were about to play a game. Green was scratched from the lineup and instead took a series of flights that led to his arrival in Pittsburgh around 9:30 a.m. on Monday.
"Scarsone called me in and said I was coming up here, and I just thought he was fooling around with me at first, just because that's his personality," he said. "He told me that's something he wouldn't fool around with. I thought he was joking at first, to be completely honest, and kind of just speechless. It definitely didn't really sink in until I told my mom and she started crying."
As for Rosales, who was hitting .200 on the season, his fourth in Oakland, the A's will have 10 days to trade, release or pass him through waivers.
"That was a tough decision, it was," Melvin said. "Adam has been here awhile, he can play different positions, he's versatile, he's a great teammate, he's loved by the players in the clubhouse. He's one of those guys you just always pull for. If he ends up with someone in the big leagues, great. If not and we can keep him in the organization, that'd be great, too."
Green to join A's in Pittsburgh tomorrow
KANSAS CITY — Four years after being drafted by the A's as their first overall pick, infielder Grant Green is finally headed to the Majors.
According to a team source, Green will join Oakland in Pittsburgh on Monday for the start of a three-game Interleague set with the Pirates.
The 25-year-old Green is hitting .318 with a .374 on-base percentage, next to 11 home runs, 25 doubles and 49 RBIs in 81 games with Triple-A Sacramento. His offense, though, has never been a concern for the A's so much as his defense, but having spent the majority of this season strictly at second base, Green is thought to have improved in that area.
It's at second base where Green is expected to make his debut, according to the official Twitter account of his high school, Anaheim's Canyon High: "Congratulations to Grant Green who just got called up and will start at 2nd base for Oakland tomorrow night!"
The corresponding move for Green is unknown, though the A's may potentially opt to designate Adam Rosales for assignment. Rosales has been a versatile piece for the A's since 2010 but has struggled to consistently produce this season. He's hitting just .200, and he also committed a costly error in the eighth inning that led to Kansas City's game-winning run on Saturday.
Should Rosales be designated, the A's would have 10 days to trade, release or pass him through waivers and keep him in the system.
Leyland: "There's a kid that got shortchanged"
Tigers manager and AL All-Star skipper Jim Leyland spoke candidly to local reporters, including MLB.com colleague Jason Beck, on Sunday morning about Josh Donaldson being left off the All-Star team, despite having put together not only one of the best first halfs of any third baseman but, really, any player in the league. Here's what he had to say:
There's a kid that got shortchanged, but there was nothing we could do about it. You've got Miguel Cabrera, and the players voted [Manny] Machado, and then you've got him, and you've still got [Evan] Longoria and [Adrian] Beltre. I mean, he just fell in. And it's too bad, because this kid … I'll go on record saying this kid's an All-Star this year but it just didn't [work out]. I can't have four third basemen. It's too bad.
He's just a good, hard-nosed all-around player, and he's getting better all the time. He's growing up right before everybody's eyes. I was impressed with him last year. We talked about him last year. This kid, I really have a lot of respect for him. I don't know the kid, but he's strong, he's got power. He's a perfect corner guy, a very hard-nosed guy, and he's a scrapper defensively. I like him a lot, and he truly could've been an All-Star this year. It just didn't work out.
I'm not defending anything, because I got three picks. And sometimes, whether people want to believe it or not, sometimes those picks may be from teams that don't have anybody, so you don't really get any.
Colon to represent A's at All-Star Game
KANSAS CITY — Mixed emotions engulfed the A's clubhouse on Saturday afternoon.
There was plenty joy for a 40-year-old pitcher who made the All-Star team — but also confusion, disappointment and even anger knowing he won't be joined by any teammates on the American League squad.
For the seventh time in the last eight seasons, the A's learned Saturday that they'll be represented by only one player at this year's Midsummer Classic: Bartolo Colon.
It's a deserving nod, no doubt, given the remarkable first half Oakland's 16-year veteran has inscribed on his lengthy resume, which includes 11 wins next to just three losses and a 2.78 ERA.
"I feel extremely happy about it," Colon said through A's coach and interpreter Ariel Prieto. "I believe it's all about the work that I've been doing, since even before the season started. I thank the Oakland A's for giving me the opportunity to be part of them."
It's the first All-Star nod for Colon since 2005, the same year he took home the AL Cy Young Award, and second of his career, having also been named an All-Star in 1998. That was 15 years ago.
"I'm obviously very happy about Bartolo," manager Bob Melvin said. "Very deserving, a guy that's been around some time, and to make an All-Star Game at the age of 40 and have the type of half he did is pretty incredible."
But for as happy as he is for Colon, Melvin is stunned that the All-Star Game, to be managed by Detroit's Jim Leyland, will take place without any of his other players, notably Grant Balfour and Josh Donaldson.
"No question. Hopefully something happens and another gets in, but I am very surprised," said Melvin, who spoke to Leyland on numerous occasions leading up to Saturday's announcement.
"He called me and asked me some questions, and he did that with everybody," he continued. "He didn't give me any indication. This certainly isn't on Jim Leyland. He only gets to pick a certain number of guys, and there are always going to be deserving players that don't get to go. As far as speaking about our players on our team, I felt like we were deserving of having more than one guy there."
"If anything," said Donaldson, "I'm more disappointed that we only had one. I feel like we're probably one of the best teams in all of baseball, and we deserve more than one guy. And I'm not talking about for me. You've got Balfour, Jed [Lowrie] is one of the top-hitting shortstops in the game right now. I just feel like there are more guys than just one in here that are All-Stars, and that's why we've been so good."
At 51-37, the defending AL West champion A's are one of baseball's best teams and have been since the middle of last year. Yet they've still yet to garner the type of attention they feel they merit.
"I guess from what you hear over the years, it's not really surprising," said Balfour. "It's a little disappointing to see as a team. I think we've shown we're a good team with a lot of great players. Just the way it goes I guess.
"I'm definitely disappointed, to be truthful. But what are you going to do about it?"
Balfour has been perfect for the A's as a closer, having given them 22 saves in as many opportunities. He has 40 in a row dating back to last year.
"He's been as close to shutdown as anyone in all of baseball," Donaldson said. "I don't know that there's any other closer out there who's perfect. He's been perfect for us all year. I don't know that there are any numbers that are better than perfect. I don't understand why he's not on the team."
Donaldson's numbers are equally impressive, even next to his peers in a stacked third-base field that includes Miguel Cabrera, Manny Machado, Adrian Beltre and Evan Longoria. Oakland's infielder, a converted catcher, exited Saturday with a .317 clip and a .918 OPS, along with 15 home runs and 57 RBIs.
Had he been selected, he would have been the first A's position player to be invited to the All-Star Game since Ramon Hernandez in 2003.
"I'm not surprised," Donaldson said, though with a hint of disappointment in his voice. "I felt honored that our fan base got behind me and tried to do what they could. That was special. For me, I understand the game of baseball and it's more than just baseball sometimes, especially for stuff like this. Everyone who made the team I feel like is pretty deserving. I'm more happy that Colon made it vs. me, myself, not making it. It's an incredible thing to do at 40 years old. I think it's pretty amazing."
Balfour was more candid in relaying his frustrations about the news.
"I guess I wasn't good enough to make it," he said wryly. "I don't know what to tell you. You're interviewing me because you thought I should've made it, and I don't know. I feel like I've had some pretty good years over the years, and I felt like this was a year it maybe could've happened. But it didn't happen and there's still a season to be played, so I'm not going to sit here and cry about it.
"You play for a long time, think you put up some good numbers over the years, but if it was meant to be it was meant to be, so you let it go. It's not always good enough to be perfect. You can't be perfect for everyone. It's not my choice. If I had the choice I'd go."
Cespedes returns to lineup; Crisp, Donaldson sit
A right hamstring strain forced Josh Donaldson to sit for just the second time all season on Friday, though his injury is not considered to be serious.
In fact, Oakland's third baseman is hoping to be back in the starting lineup for the middle contest of a three-game home set with the Mariners on Saturday, and manager Bob Melvin didn't rule it out.
Donaldson, joined on the bench by Coco Crisp, who is still dealing with right heel pain, entered the day 7-for-14 against Seattle starter Joe Saunders. Crisp has had plenty success too, going 9-for-30 off the lefty, but their absences were slightly mitigated by the return of Yoenis Cespedes, who had been relegated to the sidelines since Wednesday with a left hamstring strain.
"He's feeling much better," Melvin said of Cespedes, who started at designated hitter. "I saw him run out here earlier today. He was running without any issues. He might not be 100 percent, but hopefully he'll be guarded enough when he's running around the bases."
Crisp, Melvin said, felt better Friday morning despite playing four innings in Thursday's 18-inning affair with the Yankees. But "whether he's in the lineup tomorrow," he added, "I'm not sure."
Though there's just as much uncertainty surrounding Donaldson, the infielder is encouraged by the progress he's made in such little time.
Donaldson, who exited after 15 innings Thursday upon feeling his hamstring "lock up a bit," says he is no longer experiencing "that knotting sensation" he endured for much of the night.
"It didn't feel like a cramp but it could've been," he said. "I felt like if I was going to run hard, it wouldn't have been good. So I iced it, got treatment last night, and it's a lot better already."
"He felt a lot better than I thought he'd feel today," Melvin said, "so we'll hold out hope he can play tomorrow."
With Donaldson out of the mix, Adam Rosales started at third base Friday.

A change in direction can take you anywhere. Where do you want to go? Which way will you turn? How will you get there? What will you do, once there?
The answers are so easy and yet…….
What if I turn left today?
[On Sundays, look back and] ask yourself what was good about each day and how it could have been better. Use five colored pencils to underline on the calendar, in the appropriate color, whatever you did in the previous week:
Black: I wouldn't have done this.
Blue: I would have delegated this.
Red: I did this for health.
Green: I did this to grow.
Favorite color: I did this with family/friends, for fun.
After you've valued your past week, look at what's coming in the next week, which should be written in pencil. Is your schedule humane? Are there things you should erase right now? Are important colors missing?"—

I also started taking ambien cr due to I suffer with a sleep problem. I can go nights without sleeping and that doesn't feel too good. Today I went without the ativan and I started itching. I wondered if this ativan is already getting addictive? I had red splotches all over me. I took an ativan earlier and have somewhat of a relief. Anyone experience this?

If he was some rich white kid who was just really good, he would have had an impact but not the same impact. Before Tiger, most just thought Golf was boring.
Heck, if they could muster up ONE diverse team, (and they were good) that might do the trick. They don't need the whole league. It would be fun to watch.
What do you mean by diverse? Isn't having Canadians, Americans, Swedes, Russians, etc. etc. all playing on the same team diverse?
IMO, football, basketball and baseball are far less diverse than hockey will ever be. At least the American leagues. Except for baseball, they are heavily flooded with black Americans. And no, that is not a racist statement, or a slight against black men, but rather an honest statement.
Soccer is probably the most diverse sport (racially and nationality wise at least). It's also the most popular sport in the world. Pretty much only Americans don't care much for soccer...so that kind of throws the "diversity" argument out the window lol.
People assume that time is a strict progression of cause and effect, but actually from a non-linear non-subjective viewpoint it's more like a big ball of wibbly wobbly timey wimey...stuff.

Really fantastic pack. My go-to for weekend to week-long trips! I searched a long time to find a lightweight pack that could carry up to 40 lbs comfortably, that was actually long enough to fit my 21.5 inch torso. The Porter is the perfect pack for 90% of my trips, and I love the streamlined design and modular style of this pack. For longer trips I add a front pocket, and for winter trips an insulated bottle pocket easily straps to the side. If the trip is short or I want to do some peak bagging,… Full review

Batting at No.4, Warner only made six on the first day of Australia A's three-day match against a Zimbabwe Select XI in Harare.
Australia A were dismissed for 226 after winning the toss and the Select XI were 5-82 at stumps on day one.
Warner has had a tumultuous few weeks, with the Test opener suspended after punching England's Joe Root in a nightclub incident.
The team ban ended before the first Test, but he was released to the Australia A tour of Zimbabwe and South Africa so he could find form.
Warner is set to return to the main Australian team in time for the third Ashes Test.
Moises Henriques top-scored for Australia A with 71 and shared in a fifth-wicket stand of 88 with Glenn Maxwell, who made 61.
The Australian bowlers then ripped through the home side's top order, with young paceman Pat Cummins snaring 2-6 from six overs.
Fellow fast bowler Josh Hazelwood also took two wickets and newly naturalised Australian Fawad Ahmed picked up a wicket with the last ball of the day.

at least even if shawn cried when he was told to do a Job he would still do it, he just didn't like it.. contrast this to bret who never ever would do what's required.
plus Bret is the poorest drawing champion of all time.
I'm not trolling or exaggerating but aside from Benoit I haven't seen a worse resume of heinous feats from a Wrestler.. sad part is post Screwjob the worst got even worse (if that was even possible)
This is pretty wild. Bret worse than HBK in the 90's? Shawn always doing the job when he was asked? HBK forfeited like 4 championships and two of them were right before he was supposed to lose them to someone. He was pretty notoriously known back in the day for that.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
A few years ago, under a different administration, this school was rough. Things have dramatically changed under Mr. Pursifull's leadership!! The teacher morale appears to be way up as teachers and staff are enthusiastic about their jobs. They are warm and welcoming to parents and students. Boyd is a fun place for my child to learn. This school has a ton of spirit! Academically, Boyd students are at an advantage with LOW student to teacher ratios. Last year my child's classroom had 15 students, this year there are 19 in his class. Compared to other Allen elementary schools, that is fantastic! We have friends whose children attend a newer Allen school and they have over 20 kids in their classes. My child is an A/B student and once grades started to show signs of dropping earlier in the year, my child's teacher got in contact with me. Together we created a plan to keep him engaged and focused. WOW! That just goes to show, ALL students are a priority, not just those who are "at risk". Boyd teachers are extremely dedicated and caring! There are still opportunities for Boyd to improve, as with ALL schools. However Boyd is a special school. We are proud to be Boyd Blackhawks!
I really liked the few teachers that show they care for students.but there are more that don't put the students needs first and are more worried about other things.also you have to ask multiple times if you want something done...PTA events are really good tho...
Boyd has the most dedicated staff in the district. Student/ teacher relationships are very apparent through out the school. Student needs are the top priority.
I don't know how the school used to be, but I must say that I have been very impressed so far. The staff and administration are excellent, the security is top-notch, and I have been given everything possible from the staff to get my child transerred and enrolled without any issues. Don't forget that they are also building a brand new wing to the school to be completed in 2011 which will eliminate any portable building classrooms on campus. In this day and age, my child's security and well-being, while away from me, is paramount. Knowing that the security is great and that all classes will be held in a permanent structure gives me peace of mind. Boyd also received the academic excellence award for 2009-2010.
The teachers are excellent, PTA is very active, however we are not at all pleased with the administration of the school and how our concerns about our student are handled. If the adminstration does not improve we will be transferring our child next school year.
Boyd Elementary is a special school. I have known it, worked with it, and have known the staff for the last 30 years. This school has a heart! It cares and it shows.
I have my second child now going through Boyd. When I moved in 4 years ago, I had my concerns with the oldest. To my surprise, I was welcomed with open arms. The staff treated me as if they'd known me all along. The PTA is great too. They also made me feel very welcomed. I have not had any problems with any of the teachers or office staff. I think that Boyd is great and if my family ever moves again, I will rate the schools by Boyd's standards.
This is the worst elementary school in Allen, Texas. I have a child that attended this school for part of the year, and her abilities/grades improved 150% after being removed from this school.
My son went to Boyd for 2 1/2 years before we moved specifically for the purpose of getting him out of Boyd. The assistant principal who is no longer there did a horrible job of listening and taking care of my concerns. Children who bully and abuse others are not dealt with. Do not send your child here if you can at all help it.
If you're thinking of a good school for your kids, consider Boyd! I'll be surprised if you don't like it. From the teachers to lunchroom to custodians to principal to nurse -everyone, I've been very impressed. We've gone to four schools and this one is great. I know the grades matter but the way the teachers and staff treat our children matters just as much. Here they really do care. Just needed to let you know!!!

Meet the Girls
Girls is a new show on HBO. It is the modern day Sex and the City with a tad bit more wit and sarcasm. I just started watching the show. I have to say it is growing on me. My favorite characters is Shoshana and Marnie (minus the annoying/nagging part of her). I love how each character represents different kind of girls there are. I heard next season Donald Glover a.k.a Childish Gambino will be making an appearance! The cast from Girls were featured in Glamour Magazine May 2012 Issue.
Have you watched the show Girls? Who is your favorite character?
All I want to do is drink wine and watch the entire season of Girls.
Fav show!

Virtual World, Real Banking
Soulskill posted more than 5 years ago | from the just-wait-for-the-virtual-bailout dept.65
The Opposable Thumbs blog brings news about MindArk PE AB, a Swedish game developer whose MMO Entropia Universe has an in-game economy based on real money. It seems the company has been "granted preliminary approval for a real banking license by the Swedish Finance Supervisory. ... MindArk's going to be just like a bank in the real world: it will be backed by Sweden's $60,000 deposit insurance, offer interest-bearing accounts for its clients, feature direct deposit options, let players pay bills online, and apparently will offer loans to customers." An Associated Press report adds that "The economic activity in Entropia Universe was worth about $420 million last year, about the same as the Pacific island nation of Kiribati, population 110,000. The game has 850,000 player accounts, though not all of them represent active players."

The next issue, Vol. 6.1 (2014), will be on:
Old and New Cardinal Points of Translation
We will consider submissions on this theme until August 31, 2014. Please register on the journal's website (http://ejournals.library.ualberta.ca/index.php/TC ) and upload your submission as an "author" according to the authors' guidelines. You will receive immediate acknowledgment and normally a reviewers' report within a month. For more information or clarifications, please contact the Editor-in-Chief, Dr. Anne Malena (email@example.com).
For this issue we invite papers from all directions in translation, be they geographical, cultural, temporal, spatial, pedagogical, practical, theoretical, and from all languages, disciplines and sub-disciplines where translation may play a role. The point is, and it is an important one, to gather theoretical and case studies, translations, old and new approaches into one issue in order to stimulate debate about translation as an activity, an object of study, a discipline to teach, a form of reading, interpreting or writing and more. Whether you are a translator, a scholar, a teacher, a reader, or an aficionado of translation, you may indeed ask yourself: What is translation? What is important about it? What do I think about it? When is translation important? When was it or is it done? When is it praised? When is it vilified? When is it "ethnic" or "exotic"? Where is translation done? Where does it come from? Where is it important? Who does translation? Who publishes translation? Who decides what is translated? Who writes about it? Who thinks about it? Who likes it? Who hates it? Who trusts it? Who's afraid of it? Why translate? Why is it important? Please note that off-theme submissions in Cultural Studies, translations, essays and book reviews will also be considered for publication in this issue.
TranscUlturAl: A Journal of Translation and Cultural Studies is an electronic journal published through the University of Alberta's online library system once or twice a year on specific themes that may have previously inspired an annual one-day colloquium organized by the Department of Modern Languages & Cultural Studies on the occasion of St. Jerome's Day (September 30th) at the University of Alberta (http://www.ualberta.ca/~transday/).
